**eyes widened in confusion
Taehyung's eyes widened in confusion as he was dragged into the vehicle. He was about to resist, to push her away, but a sudden jolt of caution stayed his hand.
He recalled the consequences of defying Rose, the repercussions that would await him at the hands of his adopted parents. The memory was enough to make him hesitate, and he reluctantly acquiesced, allowing Rose to speed away with him trapped in her car.
Taehyung's life took a drastic turn when he was just eight years old. He was adopted by a middle-class couple who, despite their average means, had grand expectations for their new son. Childless and eager to mold a perfect child, they subjected Taehyung to a regime of relentless pressure and abuse.
Their demands were suffocating: perfect grades, impeccable manners, and an unyielding dedication to excellence. Any perceived failure was met with cruel punishment, leaving Taehyung emotionally scarred and desperate for escape. As soon as he was old enough, Taehyung fled, seeking solace in his independence.
But freedom came at a price. Despite securing a stable job at Jeon Corporation, Taehyung felt obligated to support his adopted parents financially, sending them a monthly allowance. Just when he thought he'd finally broken free, they dropped a bombshell: they wanted him to return home. Taehyung reluctantly obliged, only to be ambushed with an emotional blackmail that would change his life forever.
His adopted parents presented him with an ultimatum: marry Rose, the woman they'd chosen for him, or face the consequences of their wrath. Taehyung felt trapped, unable to resist the guilt trip laid out before him. He rationalized his decision, telling himself that this was the price he must pay for being adopted, for being given a roof over his head and a chance at a better life. With a heavy heart, Taehyung acquiesced, agreeing to the engagement that would shackle him to a life he didn't want.
As soon as the car door slammed shut, Rose's composure crumbled, and she unleashed a torrent of anger upon Taehyung

I saw you in Jungkook's arms, Taehyung. Don't think I didn't notice. You must have used your charms to get a job at Jeon Corporation, the number one company in the world. You're nothing but a manipulative seducer!
