Be Mine

Chapter 21

Black Bird sat down at the head of the table, nodding at the mafias and businessmen who stood up to greet him to take a seat. Min A-Yeong sat down on his right and Kim Seokjin on his left.

"You all know what you have been gathered for," Black Bird began.

"Is it true that Night Sky got permits in exchange for Alpha-X from Baek Hyeon?" Dae-Ho voiced the question in everyone's mind. Black Bird slightly turned his head to the side. One of his men who stood at the back brought forth a set of papers and set them on the table, saying, "These shipment papers of Alpha-X from Russia were retrieved from Baek Hyeon's residence. It has his original signature."

Dae-Ho flipped through the papers, "This still doesn't confirm-"

A cyan paper fell out from the pages, drawing everyone's attention to it. It was a letter of confirmation signed by Night Sky, to ship Alpha-X to South Korea. The people present widened their eyes before turning to Black Bird. Dae-Ho sighed, "What is the solution to this problem, boss?"

A few minutes of silence elapsed before Black Bird addressed Dae-Ho, "How's the construction of your new party hall going?"

"Um...pretty well...? It's almost done," Black Bird's question seemed out of the blue and absolutely unprofessional to Dae-Ho. "How soon can you organise a party?" Black Bird asked. "Two weeks," Dae-Ho replied. "Good. Well, then, I'll see all of you again in two weeks, at Chong Dae-Ho's fancy new hall's inauguration party," Black Bird said and got up. A round of murmurs began as he left the room with Seokjin and A-Yeong.

"What's gotten into boss?"

"Alpha-X is the most dangerous weapon ever manufactured! Imagine how much power that lowly Baek Hyeon would have if he ever decided to use it!"

"I cannot believe all boss can think of now is partying. Is he even in his right mind?"

"We don't know what's going on in his mind. Perhaps he has a plan."

"I hope his romantic pursuits have not dulled his intelligence!"

This final remark received smirks from the people present.
