"What the hell happened to her?" Dan-Han asked with a tight and angry voice as he approached Jae-Hyun, who was about to step into the emergency room. His heavy voice reverberated across the hallway of the hospital, startling the people that were close by.

Jae-Hyun tensed up when he saw the look in his eyes; the man looked horrible, like he could drain him dry of blood with his eyes if he didn't answer his question the very next second.

"She collapsed. It's probably from exhaustion, so calm down you don't have to look so murderous," Jae-Hyun said in a jocular manner, but Dan-Han didn't see the humour or his need to joke. If at all, he felt angry that Jae-Hyun was taking the issues of his mother collapsing casual.

"I asked you to do a check-up on her." He snapped, his eyes slowly turning red with anger.

"And....and I did," Jae-Hyun stuttered.

"You did? Then tell me, how does a healthy person collapse from exhaustion?" He roared.

"Dan... Dan-Han, you've got to calm down." Jae-Hyun spoke softly in an attempt to calm him while his eyes darted back and forth, looking for a means of escape or a saviour. He glanced at In-Ha, who was standing behind Dan-Han, but the guy shrugged and ignored him. He wasn't stupid to butt in at a time when Dan-Han looked like he could kill somebody. This was Jae-Hyun's problem to bear, and he was also going to scold him later for not being attentional to Mrs Lee's health.

"Dan-Han, there's no need throwing a tantrum right now. I just got the results from the lab, so I have to check on her. You can trash me later after she's more stable." Jae-Hyun was careful enough to speak in a low tone so as not to rile him up even more.

Dan-Han didn't like the response he had been given. As a matter of fact, he didn't like the thought of his mother being in the hospital at all. Though their relationship was a bit strained, she was still his mother.

She had never been sick before, and that ominous feeling he got whenever he saw her recently came buzzing through his stomach. "I want to see her." He wasn't telling him. It was an order.

"You have to wait. She's still not stable–"

"And yet you say it's exhaustion. Mo Jae-Hyun!" Dan-Han roared, making the woman beside him jerk slightly. She looked at him, and her breathing ceased. She hasn't seen him looking this angry before.

Noticing the anxious look on Jae-Hyun's face, Eun-sun could tell the man was probably about to faint from Dan-Han's scary look. She hooked her hand around his as she gently called his name, "Dan-Han?" But the man remained still, unmoved even though he could clearly hear her voice. It took a couple of seconds before he turned and glanced at her.

"Dan-Han, please let him go check up on Auntie, okay? Just let him take care of her for now," She said, her round shiny eyes earnestly pleading with him. Dan-Han felt helpless when he saw the look in her eyes and the way she was firmly holding onto his hand. He sighed and took in a deep breath before glancing back at Jae-Hyun.

"It had better be exhaustion." He growled before turning away.

Jae-Hyun heaved a sigh of relief; he gave Eun-sun an appreciative nod before dashing into the emergency room.

Eun-sun sighed and looked at Dan-Han, who was now sitting on the seat by the hallway, while he beckoned on the man who she recognised as the one who had informed them about the news earlier.

"What happened?" Dan-Han asked in a cold tone. He had barely heard what the man had said back at his place the moment he told him his mother had collapsed and was being taken to the hospital.

"Boss, I'm not entirely sure, but Tae-Ho mentioned the Madam had been in an argument with the Chairman after Mr Choi left the mansion." He briefly narrated what he had been told. Dan-Han's eyes darkened when he held the name 'Choi', and to think they still had the nerve to show up at their house! It seemed those people were not only stupid, but they were also courting death. He didn't need anyone to tell him why Chairman Choi had made an appearance at the family mansion.

That stupid family!

"Where's my father?"

"I think you've made it clear that I'm not your father." Father Lee's voice reverberated across the hallway, making all eyes dart towards the direction he had spoken from. They all bowed to him as he approached them, all except Dan-Han. He paused when he stood in front of Eun-sun, and she didn't miss the animosity at which he stared at her.

She bowed to him again, but the man only looked at her like she was nothing but a non-entity he could trample on. It was clear the mere sight of her irritated him. Noticing the way he was staring at Eun-sun, Dan-Han spoke up.

"For a man whose wife was brought to the hospital, you sure arrived late." His tone was scathing while father Lee turned towards him.

"Where's your mother?" Father Lee asked, ignoring the taut tone at which Dan-Han spoke to him.

"Where's Chairman Choi?" Dan-Han asked a question of his own, not bothering to answer his.

Father Lee wasn't surprised to hear his question. His minions stationed around the house must have reported to him.

"He has nothing to do with this." Father Lee said in a dismissive tone.

"Really?" Dan-Han raised a brow at him as he stared at his father with incredulity.

"Yes, the argument was between your mother and me." He blandly explained, but his words angered Dan-Han, who stood up to look at him.

"And what were you arguing about?" He asked sarcastically. Father Lee gazed at him, but he couldn't reply to him. Dan-Han chuckled derisively, his eyes angrily staring at his father.

"I warned you to look after mother properly, but yet you brought your friend into my mother's home, and you both bullied her and sent her to a hospital. And instead of you to show some remorse or worry about her, you are here defending that greedy man? What type of husband have you become?"

"Lee Dan-Han!" The man roared angrily, gritting his teeth, but his outburst only worsened Dan-Han's mood, who looked like he could set the world ablaze with his eyes.

"If anything happens to my mother, I'll make sure I wipe the existence of the Choi family from the earth, and you can shoulder that burden!"
