BXBX NOVEL Chapter 25 - Threats
"Man you are looking good! The nurses are sure treating you well" In-Ha grinned as he got up from his seat and pulled Jae-Hyun in for a hug as soon as he walked into the VIP room at the club.
"I\'m not a man-whore like you" Jae-Hyun replied with a smile as he pulled away.
"Where is Dan-Han?" Jae-Hyun asked when he observed it was just In-Ha. And as if on cue, the door was flung open from the outside. They both turned around to see Dan-Han leisurely walking in with his ever present kingle aura with his face as stoic as ever.
"Here" Dan-Han said as he walked into the room and plonked himself on the couch. He had made his way directly from the office, so he was still formally dressed in his Ash suit which he wore with a white shirt and a black tie.
"For a moment there I thought you weren\'t going to come when I didn\'t see you" Jae-Hyun said before taking his seat next to Dan-Han.
That wouldn\'t be much of a surprise since Dan-Han was never the outgoing type and has stood them up countless times. The man was a workaholic and a social recluse. In simple term, he was too stocked up.
"I almost didn\'t." He said nonchalantly as he loosen his tie.
"Well I\'ve missed my brothers. So loosen up and let\'s have fun" In-Ha chirped excitedly as he plonked himself close to Jae-Hyun. He wasn\'t stupid enough to go close to Dan-Han after that call they had earlier.
Among all three friends, In-Ha was the noisiest and liveliest one of all three. He was practically the life of each and every party he has dragged them to. His personality was totally noisy.
Dan-Han was extremely cold, aloof and extremely taciturn, while Jae-Hyun was just a lesser version of each of their personalities. His life style was somewhat different...he met the personality of both friends, midway. He wasn\'t too noisy as easy going as In-Ha, he wasn\'t also as cold at Dan-Han.
"While you are having fun, let it be at the back of your mind that President Lee won\'t clean or look after you tonight" Jae-Hyun informed In-Ha who was ordering drinks like he was hosting a party. In-Ha was simply a terrible drunk who didn\'t know when to stop.
"Come on, you are just too serious. I wonder how we\'re still friends" In-Ha said with a mock frown.
"Exactly the question I\'ve been asking myself" Dan-Han replied this time with a scoff as he poured himself some wine.
He really couldn\'t believe how he kept being friends with this lousy being.
In-Ha feigned a hurt expression as he turned to Jae-Hyun for consolation and said "Hyun you can\'t treat me like this too okay. That guy is so called, even his response are like icicles. I\'m still your friend, remember?"
"No I won\'t. But I\'ll try to be less subtle" Jae-Hyun replied with a straight face.
"....."
Jae-Hyun chuckled when he saw the surprised look on In-Ha\'s face. He looked like he has been cheated.
"I see you\'ve been taking lectures from this cold blooded tyrant here" In-Ha said casting a mock glare at Dan-Han.
"I guess I\'ve been treating you so well. How about I kick you out of my apartment later." Dan-Han said indifferently.
"Tyrant!! That\'s what you are. You just like kicking poor people like us even when we are down" In-Ha said waving a finger at Dan-Han.
"I don\'t think so you are down yet. You company is still doing fine. Down will be when I buy all your shares tomorrow and you declare bankruptcy" He said staring intensely at In-Ha.
Jae-Hyun laughed hard as he pressed his hand against his stomach when he saw the scared and paled face of In-Ha.
"Master Kang you\'d better not piss the emperor off, especially when you are under his roof. You should know better than that" Jae-Hyun said as he continued laughing.
"Oh I definitely won\'t" In-Ha uttered in mock trepidation.
"Speaking of Dan-Han\'s house, who was that lady over the phone? Was she really the housekeeper?" Jae-Hyun asked curiosly, while Dan-Han picked his glass to take a sip like he wasn\'t interested, when actually his ears were pinning for In-Ha\'s reply. One wrong word from him, and he\'ll be living on the street. Dan-Han assured himself.
In-Ha smiled when he remembered the beautiful housekeeper with a cute and fierce attitude.
"She is definitely one hell of a housekeeper" He said almost in a reminicing tone as he took a sip of his wine. His mind flashed back to her curvy and slightly robust chest of the housekeeper. That fierce look dancing in her eyes was something that fascinated him.
"Wow. Another victim of your sexual escapade huh?" Jae-Hyun sighed.
"That girl is beautiful. I mean she\'s got the curves in the right places. And she has this way of looking at you like she could probably kill you. Her eyes were spoke fire. You should see her. But I can\'t wait to lay my hands on her. Damn!" In-Ha said with a creepy smile on his face.
"I hope she does kill your first, or else I will kill you myself if you lay your hands on her" Dan-Han threatened. Funny enough In-Ha\'s description of the girl suddenly made him remember the little and petite Missy who had not only scolded him but was currently his debtor.
He wondered if that future she spoke of could come anytime soon.
