Pay With Your Heart

Chapter 64: Payment Plan

Dan-Han was certain that Eun-Sun’s major problem was pride. He didn’t know why such a lady would turn out to be like this. It seems she was against receiveing favours from others.

To be honest, he didn’t see the need for her to insist on paying her bills most especially when he was the one who hit her with his car.

Other people would try to swindle him money, belive him he has seen cases like that. But here she was accusing him of trying to swindle her. She even called him a robber. He won’t like this was the first time he has seen someone like her. In his years of being trained to be the heir of the Lee empire he hasn’t encountered the like of her and he must say he was more than intrigued by her.

Her tenancity and ferociousness was pulling strings inside of him. They both kept staring at each other in silence and Dan-Han was sure was throwing a thousand more curses at him in her head even the look in her eyes said so, and funny enough he was anxious to hear them.

He was certain she must be devicing a thousand way to kill him without getting caught. Dan-Han chuckled inwardly at his delirious thoughts.

He sighed before picking up the intercom, while Eun-Sun stood rooted to the ground still staring at him. She felt unsettled when he picked up the intercom. She had a feeling he might want to call the security to harass her.

Or was he calling his mother to inform of her of how rude and unruly she has acted. She began to feel ervous at that thought. Mrs Lee was going to be disappointed in her right? She has said alot thanks to her temper. But she wasn’t entirely at fault, this arrogant man had provoked her. If he hadn’t been so petty as to hold a debt over her head, and said those undermining words to her, she also wouldn’t have insulted him.

.....

Dan-Han smirked in his mind when he saw she was a bit shaken up. She wasn’t going to apologize now, he was certain of it. Her pride won’t let her and he’d be slightly disappointed if she did.

“Come in” She heard him say. She heaved a sigh of relief when she realized it wasn’t his mother.

‘That was such a relief’ She didn’t know how she would have faced her if were to find out about this. If it wasn’t his mother then it must be the security. Her gaze became fierce. If anyone tried to embarrass or harass her, she wouldn’t go easy with them.

Dan-Han stood to his feet and buttoned up his suit jacket. Eun-Sun noticed how tall he was the moment he rose to his feet. The difference in their height suddenly made her throat dry. Just him alone was enough to harass her talk more of his security.

Eun-Sun heart skipped a beat when Dan-Han walked around the table and starting heading towards her. She felt every form of strength in her body slowly disappear as he slowly approached her. He was towering over her again and that feeling of helplessness was slowly creeping in again.

“Miss Eun-Sun how long do you intend owing me? Or should I draft you a payment plan?” He asked, his hands buried deep in his pockets. 𝗳r𝗲𝙚w𝐞𝚋𝘯𝚘ѵ𝗲l.𝑐oｍ

Eun-Sun lifted her gaze up to him and inquired, “What payment plan?” Her voice was a bit subtle than it was minutes ago.

Dan-Han took one more step towards her and from where he stood he perceive the scent of her perfume. The scent was faint but it was pleasant to inhale.

Eun-Sun’s skipped again when Dan-Han drew close to her. She couldn’t find her initial courage. It seems, him seating on that seat and she towering over him while he sat made her bold and courageous. But now...

“There’s a certain form of payment I would like that I think would be most beneficial to us” He said unhurriedly, making Eun-Sun look at him.

“Wh..at sort of payment plan?” Eun-Sun asked nervously.

Dan-Han lowered himself down to her level and said, “You’ll have to wait and find out soon” His lips curved upwards as he stared at her hazel eyes. Eun-Sun’s gaze was also fixed at him but her was full of confusion, completely void of whatever was dancing in Dan-Han’s eyes.

It was at this point that Secretary Chang-Wok walked him.

“Sorry sir I was...” He words trailed of when he saw his boss leaning towards the woman that had come in for an interview. He wasn’t seeing things right? But how was she still alive after standing so close to that cold devil?

Dan-Han straightened himself when Chang-Wok walked him. He turned to him.

“Tell the development department to clear a desk for their new staff” He said before turning back to look at Eun-Sun who was now looking at him in utter confusion. Eun-Sun was taken aback by his words.

‘What does he mean by new staff? Was he referring to her?’

“Yes president” Secretary Chang-Wok replied with a bow, before stepping out.

Eun-Sun was yet to understand the meaning of what he had just said. ‘Was he giving her the job?’

Dan-Han who could see the confusion on her face said, “I guess you now have the job. You got the job because you said you were a valuable asset, so I must tell you that I would love to see your functioning brain and skills doing wonders in my company or else, you can kiss your job goodbye” He paused and walked back to his seat, with her gaze closely following him. He lowered himself on his seat.

“Meet my secretary to show you to your new work space” He said casually.

Eun-Sun couldn’t believe it what was happening right now. He was offering her the job? Was he doing this to mock her or what? She had said she was going to quit even if he gave her the job, so he was doing this because of that?

“Mr Le...”

“Miss Eun-Sun, your office awaits you and your job starts today” He announced not giving her the time to speak. “You can leave now” He added dismissively.

Eun-Sun was more dazed than ever. Was this truly happening?

“Miss Eun-Sun” He called raising a brow at her. Eun-Sun couldn’t find her voice to say anything to refute him right now. It was as if Dan-Han has cast a spell on her, holding her tongue. She knew he was asking her to leave.

Eun-Sun didn’t know if she should say thank you, or she should just throw his job back at his face. But she found herself saying in a low voice, “Thank you sir”.

She didn’t know why she said that, maybe it was because it was human nature to be appreciative or maybe it was because Dan-Han had a hold on her. She looked at him one more time, before turning towards the door.

“Miss Eun-Sun” Dan-Han called out making her pause on her tracks, she turned to look at him. “We’ll about that payment plan some other time” He said. Eun-Sun pursed her lip, she was tempted to go ask him what sort of payment plan he was talking about, but she had a feeling he wasn’t going to tell her, so she gave a quick nod and walked out of the room.

Dan-Han loosened his tie and glanced at the air conditioner if it was working well. Of course it was. But why was he still feeling this hurt?

He glanced at the door Eun-Sun had just walked past. It seems he was right after all, and In-Ha could forget about seeing her for the rest of his life.
