RICH HEARTS [TAEKOOK] chapter 01

Business Partner

For a middle class family, the Jeons sure spent a lot on this marriage, no?

Business Partner

Are they trying to compete with you, Mr.Kim?

A loud cackle was heard from the business man who kept talking without getting any response from the others surrounding him. The mentioned 'Mr.Kim' looking at him with a scrutinizing gaze.

Mr.Kim being none other than the great businessman Kim Namjoon.

Kim Namjoon [Kim Taehyung's Father]

Compete or not, at least they succeeded. Unlike your daughter-in-law's family. Heard they are still in debt after they organised the wedding.

A few chuckles were heard and the blabbering business partner stood there with his face heating up, his hands balled in fist due to embarassment.

Today was the wedding event of Kim Namjoon's only omega son. The beloved son of the whole Kim Clan. The omega heir of the wealthy lineage who chose morals over shinning diamonds.

Kim Taehyung. Son of Kim Namjoon and Kim Seokjin. The beauty was marrying the alpha of his dreams, Jeon Jeongguk. A son of a middle class family.

Jeongguk was Taehyung's first and only love. They met during his volunteering in the animal shelter where Jeongguk and the students he was teaching at a highschool gave them a visit. Their eyes met and everything was history. After dating for a year Taehyung confided to his parents about his relationship with Jeongguk.

At first Namjoon strongly denied, claimed that Jeongguk and his family were nowhere near their status. Taehyung was hurt and threatened to cut all ties with his parents if they don't agree to his relationship. Seokjin, his mother who was already sympathetic about his son quickly tried his best to pursue his husband to agree which in the end he eventually did. Although Namjoon still thought that Jeongguk wasn't a good choice for his innocent son.

Back to present, Namjoon watched Jeongguk and his family arriving near the stage with their extended family, Seokjin already approaching them with a gentle smile. With no other choice the omega's father too followed his wife with a tired sigh.

Kim Seokjin [Kim Taehyung's Mother]

Welcome, welcome. I hope your ride here was comfortable.

Jeon Hyeja [Jeon Jeongguk's Mother]

We thought you would send designated cars for us. But alas. 🙂

Kim Seokjin [Kim Taehyung's Mother]

Oh. W-We are sorry. I did asked Jeongguk about that but he refused and I couldn't just go against my son-in-law's wishes. 😟

Jeon Hyeja [Jeon Jeongguk's Mother]

Jeongguk is still new to all of this. You should have asked me or Jeongguk's father. 🤨

𝐉𝐞𝐨𝐧 𝐉𝐞𝐨𝐧𝐠𝐠𝐮𝐤

Eomma, it's my wedding after all. Please respect my decision and don't create a scene here. And Mrs.Kim please don't apologise.

Kim Seokjin [Kim Taehyung's Mother]

Oh no Jeongguk. I should have thought this through. 🙂

Seokjin and his gentle nature. Namjoon couldn't help but keep falling for his wife everyday.

But to say he was disappointed at the response of the Jeon family to his wife was an understatement.

Although Jeongguk did meddled in and defended his wife, still Namjoon wasn't ready to accept Jeon's.

After all the commotion the families and guests were settled down, the wedding was soon going to take place. Jeongguk with his head held high stood at the alter, a gentle smile tugging up his lips.

He was soon going marry the love of his life. The person who saw through him and gave his heart to him. Taehyung wasn't just a omega he fell in love with. Taehyung was the person who was the reason Jeongguk got to know that he also was capable of loving someone. And loving so deeply he did that now nothing could make it reversed for him. This was his life now, loving his mate unconditionally.

On the other hand Namjoon gentle held his son's hand, his eyes not hiding the bittersweet emotions his heart was facing.

𝐊𝐢𝐦 𝐓𝐚𝐞𝐡𝐲𝐮𝐧𝐠

Appa. You... You are crying.

A lone tear escaped Namjoon's eye and he was quick to wipe it away. He could hear his son's teary chuckle beside him, both son and father ready to sob hysterically on the aisle.

Kim Namjoon [Kim Taehyung's Father]

He.. He and his family better treat you right. Or god help me, I will bring them all on streets overnight.

Taehyung all but chuckled with tears flowing down his face. Even though he knew his father was cracking a joke just to lighten up the mood but some of it was true. Namjoon was capable of doing these things.

𝐊𝐢𝐦 𝐓𝐚𝐞𝐡𝐲𝐮𝐧𝐠

If my husband and his family comes on the streets then... won't I come on the streets too. 🙂

Namjoon smiled sadly as both him and Taehyung slowly walked towards the alter. His son knew how to talk back for sure, he wasn't complaining though. His Taehyung was a gentle but strong-willed person. And Namjoon was proud of that.

As they both finally approached the alter Namjoon let out a shaky breath, his heart still unwilling to let his son go. But this was supposed to happen one day or another and unfortunately today was that day.

Placing his son's hand in Jeongguk's, Namjoon closed his eyes for a brief moment. Looking up at his soon-to-be son-in-law, he toughened up his voice.

Kim Namjoon [Kim Taehyung's Father]

Take care of my son. I have never let anything or anyone bad come his way and I expect same from you.

𝐉𝐞𝐨𝐧 𝐉𝐞𝐨𝐧𝐠𝐠𝐮𝐤

Yes Appa. Taehyung is now my responsibility.

Jeongguk's calm yet firm voice was enough for Namjoon to let Taehyung's hand go and take a step back. Somewhere in his heart he knows Jeongguk IS the right choice for his son.

Walking back to his designated sit Namjoon was quick to pull his teary wife in his arms. The ceremony had already started, every member of Kim family was teary eyed.

The priest had announced his part and soon the "I do's" were vowed by the bride and groom too. The crowd erupted with loud cheers and claps. The Jeon's and Kim's were finally tied together for forever.

𝐊𝐢𝐦 𝐓𝐚𝐞𝐡𝐲𝐮𝐧𝐠

*whispers* Congratulations Mr.Jeon.

𝐉𝐞𝐨𝐧 𝐉𝐞𝐨𝐧𝐠𝐠𝐮𝐤

*whispers back* Congratulations to you too, Mrs.Jeon.

And the married life of Jeongguk and Taehyung starts.

How will the journey go?

Only time will tell.
