Chapter 36 - Doppelganger

Dan-Han was at a loss as he continued to stare at her.

He didn't know who her boss was. When did her boss live here? But being as smart as he was, Dan-Han began to add two and two and soon he was able to sum things up. And then it finally dawned on him, there could only be one possible explanation to this....she must be his housekeeper. And In-Ha had to be the boss she was referring to.

His eyes flew wide open but only for a split second, because that expression flew away just as it came, because the next second his face was back to his expressionless state. Dan-Han couldn't believe what was happening right now.

She was the house keeper?

Now he understood why In-Ha's description of the fiesty housekeeper reminded him of her. That was because they were one and the same.

As if he has been conjured, In-Ha who had been patiently waiting to see the unexpected visitor finally appeared at the door. He was also surprised to see Eun-Sun at the door. He thought she had left a while ago.

Why was she back?

Did she change her mind and has finally decided to resign?

His eyes flew to Dan-Han who was staring at the housekeeper with an unfathomable expression. His heart began to race as he thought about the things Dan-Han would do to him if she resigned.

He had warned him, not to make a move on his housekeeper. What if he finds out that he had tried seducing her earlier?

Damn, that would be the death of him!

Eun-Sun heaved a silent sigh of relief when In-Ha showed, but her heart was still thumping hard. She has been trying to think of a way to get past this man and get her phone which she had angrily forgotten.

Her heart was beating so hard that she was beginning to fear for her ribs, but all her anxiety were not reflected on her face. She kept her gaze as inscrutable as she could, almost matching Dan-Han's. She wasn't going to give him the satisfaction of seeing her squirm. Never!

Her pride won't let her! She was not the first person that was indebted on planet earth. So he should give her a break, and not stare her down like he was some devil.

"Why...why are you back?" In-Ha was the first to speak up. His eyes darting to Dan-Han as his heart thumped frantically.

"I forgot my phone and charger on the socket box" Eun-Sun said.

In-Ha almost passed out with joy when he heard her reply. 'Thank God' he cried in his heart.

"Oh, really? Hold on I'll get it" He said and dashed into the house. He wanted her gone as soon as possible. Dan-Han could come at him later for all he cares, but right now he wanted Eun-Sun to leave. At least by morning when she'll resume, Dan-Han must have left for work.

Eun-Sun who was standing in front of the cold devil, could feel his piercing gaze on her, but she didn't dare to look back. She began to feel uncomfortable by his silence. Though she didn't want him to say anything to her because she didn't know what she would say back.

Why does his silence feel like he was plotting something against her?

Perhaps he didn't recognize her? Eun-Sun asked herself.

No! she highly doubted that possibility. There was no way he'd not recognize her. It has been been two weeks.

But it wouldn't be a bad idea if he did. That would give her enough time to work and raise the money.

Maybe she could pretend to be someone else. People had dopplegangers right? But what was the possibility that her doppelganger was in the same city with her?

NONE!!

Or maybe she could act as a stray twin? That wasn't a bad idea.

Eun-Sun kept her gaze away from him as these thoughts went through her mind, if he was going to keep mute and act like he didn't recognize her, then she'll gladly oblige and participate in this act, after all it would be in her favor and it was also her intention.

She was going to act like she didn't know him. She didn't have any other solution.

After all he seems like her boss friend, so he probably would be gone soon, and wouldn't get to see her again.

But what if he asks In-Ha about her, and then he gets to find out that she worked there, what was she going to do then?

What if he comes and harrass her every time? Eun-Sun was beginning to panic inwardly, she took a sneak peek at Dan-Han who was still looking at her like he had something important going in his mind and looking at her was helping him focus.

Dan-Han was amused by Eun-Sun's brazeness. The petite girl was really ignoring him, like she has not recognized him. He slipped his hands into his pocket as he gave her his undivided attention.

If she wanted to play then he would gladly indulge her. He'll torture till she comes running and begging.

Dan-Han took a step closer to her, his gaze intensely focused on her, but Eun-Sun instinctively took a step back. She didn't dare to look at him, and for some reason her heart race increased again.

Dan-Han took another step closer and Eun-Sun also responded by taking a step backward. Her eyes began to dart to and fro and Dan-Han smirked in his mind. He liked that she was now shaken up. He thought she was going to feign that cold look and act like she wasn't scared.

Scaring people was his forte not hers.

Dan-Han was about to take another step towards her, when In-Ha returned with her phone and charger.

"Here you go" In-Ha said making Dan-Han turn to him with a glare.

What was wrong with him? What wrong timing?

Both guys were stunned when Eun-Sun swiftly snatched her phone and charger from In-Ha's hand and sprinted away like a squirrel running for her dear life.

Dan-Han watched as her disappearing silhouette. There was only one word in his mind, 'tomorrow'.

He'll see her tomorrow and he'll see how she was going to escape.

Dan-Han turned to In-Ha, his gaze was dead pan and chilling, and In-Ha knew he was in trouble.

He waited for the questions to come, but to his surprise Dan-Han leisurely walked past him. He didn't expect that.

That was strange.
