Chapter 175 - Centered On Him

.....

The moment Eun-sun arrived the company she gave In-Ha a hug and hurriedly sauntered into the company. Since she came early she made her way to Dan-Han's office first. She would have her breakfast before going to her office.

"Good morning" She greeted secretary Chang-wok with a bow.

"Good morning" He greeted back with a smile.

"Is President Lee here or in the cafeteria?" She politely asked.

Standing up from his seat, Chang-wok moved towards the door while Eun-sun followed behind. "President Lee had an emergency call but he asked me to tell to eat breakfast. He'll be back to have lunch with you" He informed her.

"Hmm?"

Secretary Chang-wok turned to look at her.

"He left?" She was surprised to hear that. Okay she was a bit disappointed. Didn't he send her that message about half an hour ago? So what happened now?

Secretary Chang-wok was surprised to see the displeased look on her face. No way! Was she feeling sad?

Noticing the slightly disappointed look on her face, secretary Chang-wok couldn't help but smile. Seems his boss was working his charms on her. Few weeks ago she'd be happy to hear he was not around, but now.....oh boy!

"He had your breakfast placed in his office, and he asked me to inform you to finish it and also inform you he also has your pills placed in his right drawer and you should take them since he's aware you might have forgotten yours"

Eun-sun pursed her lips when she remembered she had actually forgotten hers at home.

"You can go in" Chang-wok held the door for her. She gave him a slight bow before stepping into the office.

"And one more thing, Ms Park" He beckoned on her while Eun-sun turned to look at him.

"The president said, failure to finish your breakfast will attract....punishment" He told her. Eun-sun's arched her brows when she heard that. Weren't they passed that already?

He was still talking about punishment? Unbelievable!

Left with nothing to say, secretary Chang-wok quickly bowed and left.

Eun-sun sighed as she watched him close the door against her. She took a look around the huge and meticulously cleaned office.

The first thing her eyes moved to was the huge mahogany desk on the table. She looked at it for a while before taking slow steps towards it. She sat on his chair and she couldn't help but swivel around. It was comfortable and it gave a kind of feeling. She remembered how serious and handsome Dan-Han looks when he sits on it. He looks as if he controlled the world from this chair. But along side the respect and reverence it brought, it also came with a lot of responsibilities. She remembered how Dan-Han had neglected his duties to come sit by her side at the hospital and nurse her back to health.

She looked at the drawer and pulled it out, and there she saw the pills. She picked them up and she saw the direction for taking them was properly written on each one of them, like she hasn't been taking them for years.

He was treating her like a baby. A warm smile split her face as she thought about Dan-Han's thoughtfulness towards her.

He's attitude towards her was making her heart swell. She couldn't control the feeling she has whenever she thinks about all he does for her.

Eun-sun grabbed the pills and her eyes darted to the center table in front of the sofa and when she saw the huge breakfast placed on it, her eyes popped.

Was that what Dan-Han had asked her to finish? Was he crazy? Couldn't he just say he wanted to punish her instead of using the impossible to bait her?

That man was still too crazy.

And what sort of punishment was he talking about? She couldn't help but dread the kind of thing that man might ask her to do.

She stood up from the seat and made her way to the table. The closer she approached it the more shocked she was. It was one hell of a breakfast.

She lolled herself on the couch, her eyes scanned through the table. Though the food was her favorite and on a good day she might have considered eating it all, she didn't think that good day was today. He wasn't there to refill her plate and ask her to eat more.

'Park Eun-sun, what is wrong with you?!' She chided herself. Wasn't she thinking about him too much? All her thoughts these days were centered on him.

She sighed and served herself a reasonable portion and slowly started eating. Although the food was tasty just as she wanted it to be, there was still something off. She has been spending the last few days eating with Dan-Han, even before the incident she has been having breakfast with him, and each day he acted a bit better than the last.

Now eating without him felt weird. She sighed and continued eating her food, slowly. After a while she got tired. She didn't want to eat anymore and her stomach was already filled. She couldn't force herself to eat more else she might puke.

She looked at the food still remaining, it was alot but there was nothing she could do. Dan-Han could punish her all he wants, she doesn't care. She popped the pills out of their pack and swallowed them before leaving for her office.

....

When she reached her office, Eun-sun was surprised by the number of people that had been concerned about her. She hadn't thought these people actually knew of her existence at the office. Although she exchanged pleasantries with a number of them she had always put up a cold shoulder. The only person she had been nice to was Hye-Jin, who was currently hugging her.

"Ha, I missed you Eun-sun. We heard you were sick, there was no way to call you. And when you didn't come for many days, working alone became quite boring" Hye-Jin said in a sad voice.

"I'm sorry" Eun-sun said with an apologetic smile.

"Don't be sorry, just look after your health from now on. Health is very important. Do you not know of the famous slogan, 'health is wealth'? Please try to take care of yourself more often okay" Hye-Jin said with a concerned voice, while Eun-sun nodded her head. She was touched by the nice words she was receiving at the moment, not just from Hye-Jin but from her other colleagues.

She had to admit her life has changed recently.

Could she say her life was positively turning around since her encounter with Mr Lee?

Her heart skipped when she remembered him.

That crazy man had done something to her.
