Outside of Eun-sun's and Hei-Ran's apartnt, a brooding man was leaning on his car as he waited for Eun-sun's return. He looked at his watch again it's been at almost an hour since he saw her step into that taxi and headed towards this direction, but she was yet to return.
He was slowly losing his temper. That girl was making him lose his patience. Hadn't he warned her not to make him jealous with In-Ha again? So what was she doing in his car in the opposite direction away from ho? He was sure she was going out again with him. Another dinner perhaps?
Dan-Han didn't know why he was reacting the way he was. He was sure he didn't want to scold or make her scared like she usually was because these days he had noticed a slight change in her attitude towards him. She seed more willing to hang out with him, and he had noticed she glared less these days, and once in a while would try to force a smile at him. So why was she making him jealous now?
Dan-Han knew he should be ho, but he couldn't go ho feeling like this. He might kill sobody before the night ends. His mind won't be at ease till he sees her and talks to her. He was helpless about this feeling of jealousy burning in his heart.
He has never been jealous of anything or anyone in his life, but with Eun-sun, it was different. He didn't want to share her ti, presence, or smile with anyone even though it was his best friend who he believes was falling for his woman without knowing it.
"Sir, soone is going in" Dan-Han's driver ca out of the car and inford him, when it seed like his boss didn't notice the person opening the door.
Dan-Han looked up and saw Eun-sun's friend by the door trying to open it. A dark frown appeared on his face when saw it was just Hei-Ran at the door. He had been hoping Eun-sun had left to see her, but seeing her alone, his mood worsened.
'Where did she go?' He asked himself.
He was almost tempted to go ask Hei-Ran if she knew where Eun-sun had gone, but he kicked that idea out of his head.
He whipped out his phone and started dialing her number. After several rings, she didn't pick. He frowned when she didn't pick up the call. He kept dialing again but still, there was no answer from her making his mood turn sullen.
He didn't like this at all. Recently she has been receiving his calls without hesitation. Maybe after two rings, she'd always pick up.
But now, even after several tries, she was yet to pick this ti around.
His grip over his phone tightened in annoyance. He felt like smashing it.
"One more ti," He told himself and he began to dial her number again, but the result was still the sa. Dan-Han was slowly getting a feeling of foreboding in his heart. He wondered why he has been foolishly standing here all this while without calling her number.
Without hesitation, he dialed Chang-wok's number.
Chang-wok who was having an early night rest frowned when his phone started ringing. If it was during the weekdays he'd think it was the devil calling him, but this was the weekend.
He had almost decided not to pick the call and just carry on with his sleep when he reluctantly picked it up. He'd scold whoever it was.
His sleepy eyes flew wide open when he saw 'Demon boss' on display.
'Him? He was calling now?' Chang-wok asked himself before answering the call.
"Boss?" He called in a surprised tone.
"Get her number traced now" He ordered coldly before ending the call. Dan-Han didn't need to tell him who, before Chang-wok will know who he was referring to.
Dan-Han didn't know why he hadn't felt the way he was feeling now a while ago. He rembered how she had rushed out of In-Ha's car and had flagged down a taxi like she had an ergency.
Soon Dan-Han received a ssage from Chang-wok. The man was truly efficient.
Imdiately he forwarded the address to another number, before dialing it.
"Ten minutes or else you're all dead" He drawled.
Dan-Han quickly passed his phone to his driver and said, "Head there"
From his cold and frightening tone coupled with his mood in the last hour, the driver knew better than to hurry.
....
Song-Hee's House.
"Mother what did you do to ?" Eun-sun asked in a hoarse voice as she fell to her knees. The glass in her hand shattering to the ground and a piece of it piecing her calf. She shook her head slightly to shake off the dizziness she was feeling but she couldn't. There was a certain heat crawling all over her body and it was very uncomfortable. She reached for the chair by her side to stand up but she couldn't bear herself up.
Song-Hee stood up to her feet walked to the other side of the table where Eun-sun was. She looked down at her and said, "I'm only trying to survive. Use this as a paynt for raising you"
Song-Hee turned towards the door of the bedroom and tapped on it, and Carlos stepped out, a cigarette pressed against his lips and the side of his lips eerily curved upward.
He walked towards the petite girl who was struggling with her consciousness. Eun-sun narrowed her brows when she saw the face of the man approaching her.
"Carlos?" She muttered out but her voice seed inaudible. She was shocked to see him there.
"Hey wildcat" Carlos called with a creepy smile etched on his face. He took the last drag of his cigarette and placed the butt on the table before squatting close to her.
He raised his hand to touch her face, but Eun-sun slapped it away even though she could barely hold up. Her actions made the man laugh before holding her chin up tightly. Eun-sun tried to push his hand away but her body and strength were failing her. Her hand, head, eyes, everything was feeling numb and heavy by the second.
"It's good to know you still have so fire in you, it won't be so boring as I thought" He smirked, before using his other hand to brush through her hair. Though she was her mind was slowly seeping away, his gesture made her rember Dan-Han at that mont. He was the one who always touched her hair that way.
Eun-sun tried to move but instead, she fell. The heat in her body was getting worse, and it made her want to take her clothes off. She lifted her eyes to look at her mother who was looking away.
"Mother, why?" She asked in a hurtful tone and teary eyes. But Song-Her didn't bother to look at her.
Carlos looked over his shoulder to gaze at Song-Hee who wasn't looking guilty for one minute. He burst out in laughter, "Should I tell her?" He asked humorously, but Song-Hee didn't bother to look at him or reply.
He tsked and turned back to Eun-sun who still had her gaze on her mother.
"I'll tell you my wild cat. Your mother here owes a lot of debt at my casino and she decided to offer you for paynt" He paused and tsked.
"Being a generous man, I agreed to accept this paynt, after all, I have the urge to ta you and have you work for at my casino to make money and give pleasure" He said as he began to trail his hand down her thigh.
Eun-sun's slowly drooping eyes rose a bit and looked at her mother, but she couldn't say anything. Rather with her last strength, she turned to Carlos.
"Please– let go, I –I promise to p-payback" Eun-sun begged. She already knew her sad fate, and pleading with this vicious mam was the only choice she had left, but deep down in her mind, she knew it was a futile approach.
"Tsk, tsk, tsk. Do you even know how much she owes?" He asked her. "I heard you're yet to pay the bank for the mortgage of this house, so how will you pay back baby?" He asked as he rubbed his coarse palm on her fair thighs. His touch irritated her but right now she couldn't fight him off. She was vulnerable and the thought of it pained her and made her heart ache. But what pained her the most was the fact that her mother was the one who had brought this upon her.
"I'll–pay, I pro–mise" Eun-sun managed to say but the man refused.
"I like this paynt more," He said with a devilish smile playing on his lips. "Just sleep now, I promise I'll make you feel good in a little while. This drug will make you want more in a few minutes" He said as Eun-sun struggled to shake her head. She couldn't let this happen to her, she'd rather die.
But no matter how hard she tried to cling to the last bit of consciousness in her, she still couldn't do much.
"What are you still waiting for?" Carlos turned to Song-Hee who was still standing behind him.
"Do you want to see fuck your daughter?" He asked angrily making Song-Hee glare at him before picking up her bag from the couch.
"Do not forget our deal" She said as she walked towards the door.
