Pay With Your Heart Chapter 335 - Dead

Looking at the ti, Dan-Han picked up his coat and phone. He buzzed Chang-wok on the intercom.

"Sir."

"I'm leaving." He said and in the next second Chang-wok was already in the office packing up Dan-Han's stuff.

"Clear my schedule for noon tomorrow. Every eting after noon should be rescheduled for next week."

"Yes sir." Chang-wok replied as they walked out of the building. He didn't need to guess why the boss would be working for only half the day, tomorrow. It had sothing to do with Eun-sun, he was sure of it. He was even more convinced that they were back together now.

Chang-wok didn't know why he felt more happy than the parties involved. Though, Dan-Han wasn't an easy man to work with, he has grown to appreciate and like the man. He was now interested in his happiness. The man had been too lonely for a long ti.

Dan-Han was about to call Tae-Ho when he saw him waiting by his car with so of his n.

Chang-wok felt a shiver down his spine when he saw the n waiting for the boss, most especially Tae-Ho. That man always gave him goosebumps, his face was always void of expressions, and the dark glasses he always had on made him look really scary like a devil. If he wasn't scared of Dan-Han already, Tae-Ho would have topped the chart.

From the look of things President Lee had other business to handle, and it wasn't the type he could handle, so Tae-Ho would be taking over now.

"I'll take it from here." Tae-Ho took the briefcase and files from Chang-wok who concurringly nodded his head.

He bowed as him watched them leave.

...

"Where is he?" Dan-Han asked as he sent a quick text to Eun-sun informing her he'd be running a bit late than he had proposed.

"At the restaurant, boss. The place is cleared out."

"How many n?"

Tae-Ho knew he was asking for the number of n their guest had brought, so he replied. "Twenty." Dan-Han nodded.

He looked out the window as he pondered on how to go about things. He really wanted to see this through as soon as possible, not for himself, but for his mother and Ms Soo-min.

Soon they arrived at the restaurant and Tae-Ho held the door for Dan-Han.

"There's a snipper stationed at our 10 o'clock." He inford Dan-Han who barely turned his head to look.

He looked at the entrance of the restaurant and walked ahead. "They can't do anything, but stay alert." He told him while they walked in. The mont Dan-Han stepped into the building several n in black stepped out of the cars parked around and stood in front of the restaurant on guard.

The person who Dan-Han was eting today wasn't an ordinary person. He might not be from their country, but they couldn't just be relaxed as the host.

The restaurant was empty save the manager and a staff who bowed to Dan-Han the mont he walked in with his signatory cold and scary look like he could smite the earth with the icicles popping out of him. The manager shuddered when Dan-Han's gaze t his. He had thought the man that had arrived first was scary already but Dan-Han was on another level.

"Finally, you're here." A middle aged man sitting already seated on the couch in one of the private room said.

Dan-Han looked at Tae-Ho who quickly stepped outside and closed the door, but the look on his face told everyone he was reluctant to. He'd rather stay and guard his boss, and that was what he did as he stood by the door.

"Mr Kim." Dan-Han took his seat opposite him. "I'm not here to waste your ti or mine. Where's the child?" He went straight to the matter not wanting to dally, neither did he apologize for keeping him waiting. All he wanted at the mont was to rush ho and be with his woman and cuddle her tightly.

Mr Kim paid an intent gaze at Dan-Han, but his countenance didn't reveale his thoughts. His expression was just inscrutable as Dan-Han's.

"I like your forwardness Mr Lee, but can you tell what child you're talking about?" His tone was easy and carefree, like he truly had no idea what Dan-Han was talking about.

Dan-Han slightly tilt a brow at him. "Is Mr Kim trying to be ignorant now or what should I call this?"

'Ignorant?' A glint flashed through the man's eyes. He gazed at Dan-Han in a cold way but the man in front if him didn't look perturbed. He was impressed. He had heard alot about Dan-Han, and seeing him sitting in front of him now, made him realize he was more than he anticipated. As young as he was, he commanded an informidable aura that made one uneasy.

He was truly impressed.

He lolled back on his seat and focused his eyes on Dan-Han. "I'll tell you the answer you seek, if you tell how this got your interest."

Dan-Han silently watched him for a while and replied, "The mother is alive and she wants her child." He told him. Dan-Han had not planned on sharing this information with him, but there was a theory taunting his mind for days.

Dan-Han paid rapt attention to the man and he noticed the look that flickered through the man's eyes, and he knew that look very well. His expression might just have confird his theory.

Mr Kim was utterly surprised to hear what Dan-Han had just said.

"Where is she?" He asked, his tone no longer sounding as calm as he was minutes ago.

"Where is her child? Or should i say, where is your child with her?" Dan-Han shot him a challenging look, daring him to deny what he had just said.

Mr Kim stilled for a short second before composing himself, but Dan-Han did not miss it. Mr Kim bellowed out a short round of laughter, but Dan-Han maintained his gaze on him.

"You're sothing, Mr Lee." He casually said.

"Are you denying it or not?" Dan-Han's cold voice ca asking.

The man shook his head and replied, "No, I'm not. The child is mine." He couldn't deny it as it seed Dan-Han had really seen through him.

"Then where is it?" Dan-Han asked. He was getting impatient.

"Dead." Mr Kim firmly said.

'Dead?' Dan-Han didn't believe that. He could discern a lie when he heard one.

"Mr Kim."

"Mr Lee, I'm here because we're very capable n and I thought it great to make you acquittance but it seems you're about to cross the line. The child, my child is dead, and the mother I thought dead is fortunately alive and well under your care, for that I'm grateful. But I'd advice you take your nose off my family and business."

"But I've developed an interest in your family and business."

"Then get sothing else to play with, and stop whatever you're doing." He warned. There was no more calmness in his voice.

Dan-Han looked at him and said. "I want the child, and you have two weeks."

Mr Kim looked at Dan-Han in an indescribable way. Was he threatening him?

"And if I don't?" He asked daringly, a brow cocked at him.

"Then I'll make your business my business as well as the whole country's."

"You're joking." The man scoffed. His eyes followed Dan-Han who was already standing on his feet.

"Then I guess, you just have to relax and find out." Dan-Han said and walked out of the room leaving the man dumbfounded.

"Who the hell does he think he is?" He scoffed. "A small brat, I'll show you whose affair you're ddling with!" He drawled.

As far as Mr Kim is concerned, he couldn't let Dan-Han find anything about this child. He wondered how he had figured it out in the first place.

How did he know?
