BXBX NOVEL Chapter 239 - Awful Truth
Eun-sun felt broken, hurt, betrayed and shocked by what she had just heard. Her father\'s words kept looping in her head even after he was gone. She still couldn\'t believe what had just happened.
They really hated her that much right? He despised her so much he couldn\'t wait to ditch that to her face? It seemed like he had been dying to tell her this awful truth about her life the very moment he saw her. He couldn\'t even pretend that he cared about her or her well being. He didn\'t even care to ask how she had been faring in the last ten years, or how she had gone to school, catered for the family he left behind and paid for the debts she inherited from him even when he knew she wasn\'t his daughter. He couldn\'t ask any of that, but the first thing he did was throw such a brutal thing at her just like that?
How cruel could this life be?
He wasn\'t her father? And Song-Hee wasn\'t her mother and yet she had slaved and suffered at their hand. Life was indeed making a joke out of her.
Eun-sun threw her head back and laughed some more. Did the world hate her this much? Was she that despicable that only the worst things comes her way?
Eun-sun could feel the pain growing in her heart, the tightness in her chest was enough to make her choke but she still wasn\'t sure how to react to the earth shattering news she had received, so she continued laughing. She laughed at the ridiculity of the situation. Laughed at her miserable and pathetic life where nothing seem to go well.
Dan-Han looked at her with worried eyes as she kept laughing. He knew she was in a state of shock, hence why she was reacting this way.
What she had just heard was nothing to laugh about. She had just discovered a life shattering truth about her life which would mare her, so he knew behind her laughter were so many emotions that were being held back.
Honestly, he wasn\'t so surprised to have heard what Eun-sun\'s supposed father had said. As a matter of fact he had had his suspicion a while ago, but he had discarded that thought for her sake because he didn\'t want to jinx her with such thought, the poor girl had been through alot already. But who knew he was right all along?
Dan-Han walked closer to her and stood in front of her without saying a word. He didn\'t even know what to say at a time like this. Eun-sun lifted her eyes up to him and the moment she saw him her eyes glistened with tears, reflecting the pain she was feeling in her eyes, but she forced a smile at him.
"Did you hear what he said?" She asked while Dan-Han slowly nodded. Eun-sun chuckled and looked away. She didn\'t want to look at him for one more second, because staring at him made her feel like she could cry and let go of all she was feeling at the moment, but she didn\'t want that. She didn\'t want him to see her in a broken state, she has been crying in front of him alot.
Right now she felt like cursing, she wanted scream her lungs out till someone told her that what she had heard wasn\'t true. She didn\'t want to believe it, but deep down she knew what her father. No scratch that! What Mr Park had said was true, he had never lied to her. He has always been a straight forward person.
Dan-Han\'s heart ached when he saw the pained and disbelieving look on her face. He sat beside her and placed his hand around her shoulders making her to glance at him.
"It\'s funny isn\'t it?" She asked without looking at him, a tear rolling down her cheek.
"Eun-sun." Dan-Han called softly making her wipe her face.
"I\'m not crying Mr Lee. I just want to go home. Take me home." She said in a cold small voice.
Dan-Han stared at her for a short while before nodding his head, "Okay."
He reached for her hand but Eun-sun sprang upto her feet and walked ahead of him. Dan-Han could only sigh in his heart before following her out of the restaurant.
He gave orders to his men before driving off. Dan-Han kept staring at her all throughout the drive, he didn\'t know what he should say to her.
He sighed inwardly when Eun-sun kept mute and stared outside the window. He knew alot of thoughts were going through her mind at the moment and she was struggling to come to terms with everything. She was devastated and he hated it, but what could he do?
He knew she\'d want to be alone at this time so she could process all she had heard, but he didn\'t want her to be alone. She has been crying alot lately and he wanted to be there to console her. He wanted to comfort her and hug her, and let her cry in his arms but he wasn\'t even sure of anything right now. Nothing he would do will help her feel better.
He glanced at her when they finally arrived her place. He opened his mouth to say something but Eun-sun spoke up first.
"Mr Lee, thank you for tonight. Good night." She said before stepping out of the car.
Dan-Han stepped out of the car and hurried after her. He held her hand to stop her. He looked at her and he saw the too many emotions and pain flickering in her eyes. His words got stuck in his mouth and he could only kiss her forehead, "Know I\'m always here for you. You still have me Eun-sun." He said in an assuring voice.
Eun-sun flashed him a small smile which felt painful as she slowly nodded her head before walking away.
Dan-Han watched her as she walked into the house. He stood on that same spot for several minutes not sure if he should go home or just wait there. This was hard. Had he known he\'d probably wouldn\'t have arranged their meeting.
