[Hey guys.... I\'m so sorry for yesterday\'s wrong chapter. It has been replaced, please kindly refer back to it. I\'m sorry for the inconveniences.]
........
Saying Eun-sun was stunned after that call was an understatement. She regretted agreeing into giving him a reward for having her number. How could she have been so stupid? She had just given him an opportunity to taunt her more, and she regretted every bit of it.
Imagine her looking slightly fret because of her boss, when she had just lectured Hei-Ran on how to handle her crazy boss. But she has always convinced herself that Song Jinhai was no match for Lee Dan-Han. If Song Jinhai was a devil, then Lee Dan-Han was hIs grandmaster. She could be puff and threaten Jinhai, but in the presence of Lee Dan-Han almost all her traits for rebellion suddenly comes in check.
\'Isn\'t this hypocrisy?\' She asked herself.
She looked at Dan-Han with suspicious eyes as she slowly approached him. Though he had his signature stoic look, she could see that his look had softened a bit.
The way his eyes were intently locked on her made her extremely conscious.
"Good evening sir" Eun-sun greeted with a bow. Dan-Han nearly opened his mouth to reprimand her, but he refrained himself not to.
He sighed inwardly as he told himself that it was only a matter of time before she comes around. She\'d come around soon, and he\'d get to hear her take his name with her mouth.
He nodded his head as he kept looking at her from head to toe. She was looking beautiful in the Yellow A-line gown she had donned herself in. Her hair was neatly packed in a ponytail and as usual her face was almost bare of make-up. He looked down to the plup heel she had on, and his brows furrowed when he realized she tend to wear this pair the most. Given the fact that he always paid attention to her looks he had noticed she wears a limited pair of shoe.
He lifted his face to back on her delicate face which has always been able to mesmerize him, and then he noticed her slightly glossy lips. He wasn\'t sure if she had used the one he had bought for her, but he wanted to believe that was it. Eun-sun shifted uncomfortably from foot to foot when Dan-Han looked all over her. Sizing her up with much intensity.
"You look beautiful" Dan-Han said in a calm and gentle voice. Maybe too beautiful. She has sure made a lot of effort in her looks. They were only going to see his mother. She was making effort for his mother but not for him.
Eun-sun looked at him but she didn\'t say anything. There was nothing to say, was she supposed to return his compliment? No way!
But on a second thought he was looking quite different. Unlike his usual bland color suit, he was wearing a maroon colored pant and a white shirt but he wasn\'t wearing his suit, which always put a domineering air around him. It wouldn\'t be wrong to say that he looked a bit normal.
Dan-Han looked at her for a while and scoffed. He took a step closer to her and stopped less than a feet away from her. She could smell the sweet and musk fragrance of his perfume. At this rate she could swear the smell of his perfume was already registered in her head by now. These days she tends to pay attention to the way he smells, and it was sort of weird.
He used his hand to lift her chin, so he could look deep into her eyes.
"If someone gives you a compliment, you should say thank you and return the compliment" He lectured. Eun-sun grip over her clutch tightened as she looked at him. He was so close to her and she wasn\'t comfortable with it, making her lower her eyes.
"Park Eun-sun" He called her name with an unusual tone, prompting her to lift her eyes up to him again, as she looked at him questioningly.
"I\'m waiting" He said.
"Mr Lee will you also force a compliment from me?" She couldn\'t help but ask.
"Yes" He shamelessly replied, making Eun-sun sigh deflatedly. She knew there was no need being stubborn and dallying for no reason because this man was going to make her say what he wanted to hear nonetheless.
With an insincere voice she said, "Thank you Mr Lee, and you look...." She paused when an idea dropped into her head. A malicious smile threatened to split her face but she tucked it in. Dan-Han raised his ears as he waited for Eun-sun to complete what she wanted to say.
"Less devilish" She added.
Dan-Han narrowed his eyes at her when she said those words. Was she indirectly calling him a devil?
"Are you calling me a devil?" Dan-Han asked with a grave tone while Eun-sun shrugged casually. She didn\'t directly call him a devil he was the one who was making that deduction on his own. She smiled in her head unknowing to her it was broadly reflected on her face, especially when she saw the distorted and displeased look on his face. Atleast he got what she was trying to say.
\'She has become bold\' He told himself.
Dan-Han eyes looked at her with disbelief when he saw the mischievous girl smiling. He was awestruck from seeing her smile.....
even though it was mischievous one.
"You should smile more often" He said to her, his eyes not leaving her face. Eun-sun was quite startled when she heard him. She didn\'t know she was foolish enough to smile out like that. What has come over her? She cringed in her head as she quickly regained her composure. She finally remembered something and her eyes immediately went up to his face.
Her heart suddenly began to beat when she remembered what he had said on the phone.
Dan-Han noticed the way she was staring at him, though she wasn\'t an easy person to read, but from the way she was looking at him, he could guess what had suddenly gone through her mind.
He chuckled when he realized that she still knew how to be scared around him.
He lifted his hand and brushed it through the side of her well packed hair, "You\'ll find out when the time is right, don\'t worry yourself" He said cryptically. Surreptitiously informing her he knew what she was thinking about.
He knew what he wanted to ask, but he didn\'t think she was ready yet.
Eun-sun looked at him with widened eyes but he simply ignored her and took her hand before leading her to the car.
"Get in" He told her and she willingly obliged. His chaffeur wasn\'t with him today and he was driving.
Dan-Han circled round the car and hopped in and they immediately set off for his mother\'s place.
Eun-sun tried not to look at him, knowing fully well he was stealing glances at her every now and then. She decided to fix her eyes on the window.
"Did you miss me?" Dan-Han suddenly asked almost making Eun-sun choke on her saliva as she immediately snapped her head to look at him.
Couldn\'t he Just focus on the road and drive them to their destination without talking to her? And why was he asking her such stupid question now?
\'Miss him? Why would she miss him? Would any person in their normal senses miss him?\' She reasoned to herself.
Eun-sun looked at him, his gaze was fixed on the road like he had not been the one who had uttered those words from his mouth. How does always manage to drop a bomb shell everytime and still keep a stoic look on his face?
"No" She replied firmly before turning to look outside the window. There was no need playing around or being too scared to answer him. He had asked her a question so she was obliged to reply. And that was her honest response.
Dan-Han wasn\'t surprised by her abrupt response. One thing he had long realized in this pursuit of her love, was that he had to be patient with her, even when he didn\'t want to. But he wondered how long his patience would last.
"It\'s okay, but i did" He announced. "I missed you for the both of us"
She might have missed him, but his was enough to cover for her, till she does.
He missed her when he didn\'t see her this morning, because it was weekend, and he had regretted not scheduling their outing in the morning. Eun-sun couldn\'t help but look back at him, and he was also looking at her.
"I did miss you" He said reassuringly just incase she had any doubt that he wasn\'t being sincere with his words. But his words were making her really uncomfortable. Eun-sun\'s eyes fluttered when she saw the way he was looking at her.
"Mr Lee...stop saying those kind of words to me" Eun-sun muttered, as she looked away from him.
"Why?" He asked.
"Because they make me uncomfortable" She truthfully replied, while Dan-Han chuckled amusedly. He also wasn\'t used to doing or saying stuff like this but for her sake, he\'d try.
"Then I\'ll make you get used to it" He declared.
