"Is this a new development?"

Jun-Myeon ignored all their remarks and exhaled loudly. "Let bygones be bygones. From the bottom of my heart, I deeply apologize and would like to tell you all and my family that I'm ashamed of my past actions." He bowed.

There were several whispers and murmurs. Gasps filled the air as they all processed his statement. He smiled inwardly before straightening and gave them a pitiful look.

I'm ashamed of handling it the way I did. I'm ashamed of underestimating the situation. I'm ashamed of failing.

And then he said their names. "Jeon Jungkook and Ha Kwan, I'm sorry." He bowed again.

It's game over for you now.

He smirked, staring at his polished boots.

Let's see how you're gonna get out of this one. Now everyone knows who you are.

He straightened up and scanned the reporter's faces that were slowly filling up with shock and surprise as they realized he just revealed something he shouldn't. A few looked stunned and confused as to how to react in this situation while the others tried to make the most out of it.

Jun-Myeon took a deep breath and relished the chaos he just unleashed. "I'll be careful with my behavior and watch my every step. I'll continue to reflect on my actions. I'll work very hard to become a better person in every sense. Thank you." He began to walk toward his car without another word.

The namedrop had worked like a charm, several reporters wrote it down and the murmurs among them was music to his ears. Jun-Myeon's malicious grin remained hidden behind his fake smile.

Let's see how you're gonna protect them now, Jimin.

"So that was the slip you were talking about," Attorney Oh wondered once they were inside his car. "You can just release a statement and claim that it was a mistake and you didn't mean it."

"I'll think about it." He glanced outside.

"They would have never expected this," Attorney Oh laughed. "That was very clever."

Jun-Myeon smiled. "Always think simple. From here on out, it's your responsibility to cover my ass, Attorney Oh. Make sure you cover every loophole in the law."

"Oh, I will, sir. Don't you worry about it."

Jun-Myeon eased in his seat, fingers tapping on his thigh as his thoughts reeled. They may have won in court but the real battle had just begun. He was outside now. He would show them why they should have never crossed him.

No one crosses me and walks away without paying the price. Especially an omega like you. Everyday from now will become a war of survival for you and I'll guarantee you that.
