Dan-Han couldn't concentrate on his work after Eun-sun had gone. He wasn't liking the constant reoccurrence of the Choi's name. It was beginning to irk him and he didn't like it.
He didn't want anything or anybody to create problems for Eun-sun, the girl had led a hard life and he wasn't going to let her face another round of hardship, not when he was alive. It was now his duty to protect and also help her develop herself as he has noticed that she has somehow developed a low self esteem of herself and he didn't like it. And there was also the case of her mother, though she hasn't said anything about it yet he knew she was having a hard time. Her mother's betrayal must have stroke her hard and she was trying to avoid the situation. At one point or another she was going to have to face this demon, but he was going to give her time to trust him a bit before trying to interfere in her life. He didn't want to be too forward simply because she was now in love with. And lastly there was a case of her missing Father who he had found but was yet to tell her because of how precarious then situation was. He had come to know about her missing father when he asked for a report about her. He had wanted to ask her, but he was holding back. And he hasn't come up with the best way to tell her where her father was and the situation he was in. It was going to be a blow on her.
A prying boyfriend wasn't what she needed at the moment. But a supportive one and he was going to be that for her.
Knowing all these the last thing Dan-Han wanted was to be the source of trouble in her life. He jerked up to his feet and picked up his coat before leaving the office.
"Sir your meeting–"
"Cancel it" He interjected Chang-wok.
"But sir they're already here." Secretary Chang-wok reminded him. He was supposed to have a meeting with some government officials who had come because of the centenary project.
Dan-Han paused on his strides and looked at Chang-wok with a scowl. "Tell them if they can't wait, I'll move my building elsewhere." His tone and his aura were cold and secretary Chang-wok felt a cold chill on his spine.
"Ye..es sir" He nodded. Will those men wait? Of course they will, because they had no choice. Centenary project in country A was a project everyone had an eye on.
Dan-Han made his way to his private car park and hopped in, informing his driver to take him to the Lee mansion. He had to talk to his father, because he had a feeling whatever was going on with the Choi's his father had a hand in it. No one would dare to make news with his name or carry unfounded rumors even as far to his mother's presence without having a solid backup or haven't received a go ahead from his father.
He stormed into the mansion and into the study where he met his father reading a file.
"Father" Dan-Han greeted with a low bow.
"I'm glad you are here" Father Lee replied. Dan-Han noticed the tone at which he spoke and he knew they were indeed going to have a heated conversation.
"What is this?" Father Lee said throwing the file he had been reading at him.
Dan-Han picked up the file and opened it, he wasn't surprised when he saw what was written inside as well as the photograph.
"What is wrong with it?" Dan-Han said with a non-chalant tone. It wasn't news that he was aloof to everybody even his own parents.
"What do you mean by that stupid question?". Father Lee asked irritatedly.
Dan-Han dropped the file back on the table and stared at his father, "What I mean is, what are you doing with Chairman Choi? Why is his daughter going about calling herself my fiancee?" He asked very coldly.
"And why are you asking me that?" Father Lee cocked a brow at him.
"Father you know Chairman Choi and his family aren't bold enough to make such a move on me, except you both already have an agreement" Dan-Han told him.
Father Lee smiled at his son's wit. "Yes you're right, Chairman Choi and I have agreed to have you and his daughter be engaged. And it'll be taking place soon. I was planning to call you and inform you about it" Father Lee smiled.
"Inform me" Dan-Han wasn't asking he was letting his father know how silly those words sound.
"Yes. You'll be getting engaged and you'll get married to Choi Mi-Ok"
"And I'll like to see how you make that happen" Dan-Han said rudely.
"Dan-Han!"
"Don't use that fatherly tone on me. You don't go about planning people's engagement behind their back. I have a girl I love and if she wants to get married I'll gladly jump at it, but you don't go plan things that will hurt her behind my back" Dan-Han drawled.
"So this is about her"
"Yes it is. You and mother should learn how to respect my decision and not interfere with my life. I'm an adult–"
"Who is 30"
"And you married my mother at twenty-seven had me at twenty years eight"
"Lee Dan-Han" Father Lee drawled but Dan-Han was unfazed. "Did you see the family she's from. She's a nobody, she has nothing to bring to the table. Her father is irresponsible and you and I know Where he is, her mother is a gambler and a crack, what can of family do you want to associate us with? I forbid it! You'll marry Choi Mi-Ok and that's final!" He declared.
Dan-Han's eyes grew cold when he heard how his father had just addressed Eun-sun.
He locked gaze with his father before standing up to his feet.
"Father I'll let some of the things you said go because you're my father, but never address her as a nobody ever again. Since you like the Choi's you can adopt the daughter, but you better stop whatever you're doing, because the next time something happens or she feels sad, I'll buy Choi corporation and throw that chairman Choi and his hungry family to the sea."
"Are you threatening me?"
"You provoked me first" Dan-Han replied. He provoked him by calling Eun-sun a nobody.
"Do you think you're that powerful? You're my son and I trained you to be who you're today. What if I decide to hurt her?" He asked in a threatening tone.
"Then you must have forgotten the kind of son you have. Father do not tempt me, Park Eun-sun is my bottom line, so don't mess with me." He drawled before buttoning his shirt and leisurely strolling out of the room.
"Dan-Han!" Father Lee furiously slammed his hand on the table.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
