Chapter 320 - End It

Eun-sun paused at the door when she saw him sitting behind his desk with his head lowered while he worked. He looked like a demon king which exuded a compulsive aura that attracted people to him, yet kept them on their toes. That was the sort of man he was. Attractive yet dangerous.

"Dan- President Lee." She called making Dan-Han lift his head towards her. She saw the surprise look on his face and it made her nervous.

Dan-Han was shocked be you words to see her standing in his office. When he had heard the door, he thought it was Chang-wok.

His eyes darted to the door behind her and he wondered why Chang-wok didn't inform him of her presence. He'll deal with him later.

He returned his gaze to her and his eyes trailed her over from head to toe. He had not imagined to see her in his office after such a long time. Though it was his own doing, but seeing her there with her lips slightly painted pink while she felt ashamed under his gaze, felt like something he didn't know he had missed.

Eun-sun felt uncomfortable under his intense eyes which was boring a hole in her. She remained on a spot as she let him have a full of staring at her.

"Why are you here?" He suddenly asked, but his intently looking eyes remained glued on her.

"I brought this." She said, bringing his attention to the file in her hand. He nodded for her to come closer.

Dan-Han's brows furrowed when he saw the file she had brought.

"This is why you're here?" He asked and she nodded. Dan-Han suddenly felt angry, but the reason for his anger was unknown to him. He didn't know if he was angry because of her answer or because someone was slacking in his company.

Was he angry? She asked herself.

"I had forgotten to submit this yesterday because I was–"

"You're lying for him now?" He asked, his brows questioningly cocked at her. Eun-sun gulped when she saw the change in his mood and countenance.

"I–I" She stuttered. She didn't know why she had lied now, but it felt like the right thing to do.

"You still don't learn, do you?"

"Dan-Han, please don't be angry at him." She immediately apologized.

"I'm not angry with him, I'm angry at you!" He snapped at her causing her to stiffen with shock.

"You always let people take advantage of you despite knowing what the consequences would be. First it was your mother, then my mother, and now you're doing it for a staff who failed to do his job?" He shot her a disappointed look while she lowered her head embarrassedly. He was saying the truth.

"You always try to behave strong and capable with those high walls you build around yourself but they are just as weak as you." He drawled. "Eun-sun, once is a mistake, twice is a choice, but a third time? This is foolishness. Are you always going to be this stupid?" He snapped again.

Eun-sun raised her head to him. She didn't think they were still talking about the file. And she was stupid?

"I'm stupid?" She asked with incredulity.

"Yes, you are." He confidently replied. She scoffed. Her eyes turning cold and angry.

"Aren't you the stupid one for holding onto a stupid girl who'd make you lose your company? Aren't you being stupid for refusing to fire me when your father wants you to? Who's the stupid one Lee Dan-Han?" She asked.

Dan-Han was shocked when he heard her, but his emotions didn't reflect on his face.

"You spoke to him?" He asked.

"You don't get to ask me anything." She glared at him.

"I agree I'm gullible and stupid to the people I care about, but isn't that what you have also exploited by lying and keeping a secret from me?" She snapped at him.

His brows narrowed at her. "What are you talking about?" He curiously asked, but she didn't bother to reply him, rather she chuckled.

"You know, Ji-Tae was right."

'Ji-Tae?'

"You refuse to forgive me for the same thing you're guilty of, keeping a secret. Did you for once know how I felt keeping your mother's secret, and carrying it like a burden? Or how I felt knowing the one person who truly treated me like a mother was going to die, and I had to keep it to myself while being helpless about it?! Do you?" She demanded.

"I tried to create opportunities for you to be with her. I might have made a mistake, Buti did my best."

"Are you trying to justify your actions?" He angrily asked. She was beginning to annoy him.

"No. I'm not. I'm just saying you're being a hypocrite, and you've exploited me just like everyone else!" She roared at him before turning around to leave.

"Park Eun-sun!" He angrily called at her making Chang-wok who was seated outside almost fall off his seat.

She paused and glanced back at him.

"We are not done." He seethed, but the stubborn girl replied. "We are."

"You want this relationship to end? Fine, let's do that." She said making Dan-Han furrow his brow at her.

"You don't mean that do you?"

"I do. Your father wants me gone and you want me out of life, then I might as well leave with my foolishness. I hope you and your ex-girlfriend have a good life." She said and walked out but not without slamming his door.

Dan-Han watched her leave with incredulity. What the hell just happened?! She was mad at him? And what secret was she talking about?

Immediately, he buzzed Chang-wok who was almost pissing his pant outside,

on the intercom. "Find me Lee Ji-Tae this instant." He ordered.

Dan-Han could swear that bastard had a hand in this. This was his forte, saying things and manipulating people's emotions to his favour.. He was going to kill him with his own bare hands, he swears on it.
