Wounded: The Ordeals Of Lee Eun ha

Eun Ha? " the manager called, " Please take a menu to that table and get their request." deep down she would have wanted someone else to do it but this was the boss orders, who was she to reject. she took the menu and walked straight to the table, her heart was racing very fast, she couldn't phantom exactly why. good evening Sir, she said bowing her head politely as she offered the menu what would you like to have? they looked at the menu and pointed what they wanted, she went out from the table and brought the cocktail they had ordered, she turned back to leave when the voice of one of them stopped her in her tracks. "wait" her heart stopped for some split seconds and continued beating with difficulty. I know you, you're Mr Lee's daughter he said with and an evil grin that revealed his tobacco colored teeth. she froze as the tray she was holding dropped to the ground. "I was right, it's them" The restaurant on the ground floor was filled with people mostly the elites, some of them were tourist, others were there for a business meeting and others, conferences. the sound of the dropped tray caught the attention of most of them, making them glance at Eun Ha for some split seconds. He continued, The deadline is tomorrow evening don't forget that. Eun Ha had wanted to say something to them, perhaps, beg them but the words never left her throat. Eun Ha stood there for about two minutes, "will you get us our meal or will you just stand there?" the other muttered harshly. she knew they were evil men, above the law. falling into their trap was the most dangerous place a person could be. she resigned to begging for more time. one glance, Mu Chen could tell what was happening "X force" he whispered underneath his breath. they had quite a reputation and were feared by many. They feared no one and could illegally obtain what was theirs if necessary. He looked at the helpless young lady on the floor, he knew there was no way they'd let her go, no matter how much she begged. he didn't know this girl, yet he felt a need to protect her. he went out and waited in his car in the parking area. "Wait," he said with a deep voice. Chae won was surprised he would have sworn a few minutes ago that he was in a hurry to leave. The loan sharks finished their meal as she handed them their bills, "How ironic, we're paying for your service and you owe us," he said humorously as they both burst into laughter. Eun Ha felt a knife pierce her heart, she had never felt so much humiliation in her life. she followed them outside the building trying to plead with them for the last time to see if they'd cave in and give her more time but they just walked straight to the car and drove off. Eun Ha stood outside the hotel, in despair, her father was going to die, this men were ruthless, the cloud had darkened earlier, soon few drops of rain started falling, but she was in no hurry to leave as if it were possible for the rain to wash down all her pain, she stood outside staring blankly into thin air while it rained on her, soon her hair was separating into clustered strands, tear a freely flowed down her cheeks, she felt like screaming, she felt helpless, Just then she couldn't feel the raindrops on her skin she turned as her eyes met with a tall handsome young man holding a big black umbrella. Mu Chen looked at her sorrowful eyes, he could see the pain in her soul through them. "I know who they were, and I can roughly guess what it is" Eun Ha was confused, "what did he know? who was he? why is he being kind to me?" she asked one question after another in her head. "How much?" he asked with a king like voice. "10,000 dollars," she said as her lips trembled, "How did you...?" this time she was starting to get suspicious. I have an offer for you, I'll clear the debt but you'll carry my baby"

MuChen

Chae Won felt a presence, he felt his boss was being followed but it was just his gut feeling, he thought, maybe he was being overly cautious. He brought out the car from the garage and parked it right in front of the door.

"Take me to my father's apartment he said coldly."

Chae Won has been his trusted ally since day one, he had no friends he had high value for him but he wouldn't let his feelings show, he didn't want to feel weak and Chae won understood his boss completely.

He was expecting the ride to be silent as usual but ever since the appearance of the waitress, nothing was usual, he did unusual things he never would have thought he would do.

His boss acted all strong and mighty in front of people, feared even by many but deep down he had a kind heart, one incapable of hurting another human except utterly necessary.

"Have you spoken with the colleague of Eun Ha?" the masculine voice of Muchen asking this question broke the silence.

"Yes, I have, it was as we thought, she had been set up," he said calmly

"And..." Muchen said impatiently raising one side of his eyebrows.

"A certain Ma'am Wu the head of the waitress is the suspect,"

"Hmmmn" was the only thing he said in response.

"Should I visit her? No, not yet, we would when the time is right"

This has to be the longest conversation he has had with his boss since he started working for him, he usually held monotonous conversations with people and he wasn't an exception, they soon approached the gate of the building, as the security guards greeted him as they drove past the huge gate which led to the mansion they lived in Creo Estate.

It was just 7:00 pm the timing had been perfect, for dinner but not for him. He walked into the house as he made his way to the dining, he knew his parents would be there, he had wanted to greet them and return to his room for work when he realised that they were 3 at the dining which was quite weird, he couldn't see the face of the person seated and had assumed it was his cousin, he walked towards the dining and a rush of excitement flushed his mother's face on seeing him

"Much!" She called out happily, he bowed and greeted his mother and father before turning to the lady seated, his eyes fell on Kang Mi Cha he was shocked but his face remained expressionless.

MI Cha wasn't going to let this opportunity slide,

"Hey dear good evening, we've been expecting your arrival" Muchen looked oddly at her, without saying a word if he had any appetite or plans to eat dinner with his parents it had just been cancelled, his father hadn't said two words to him finally spoke and Said

"Muchen, take a seat, and don't be rude to the young lady who has come out of her way to see you," he said in an authoritative tone, ordinarily he would have walked out but he knew the last thing he wanted to do was increase the tension between him and his parents.

He pulled out a chair and sat down.

As the maids came to dish out his food, they had dished his meal without putting beans in it, he was allergic, he didn't eat it, Mi Cha had also noticed his father didn't eat beans it wasn't added to both their meals.

She continued eating while observing their faces, but her heart was beating fast, having the love of her life seated just across the table, this was what she wanted, to be part of the family.

Muchen ate his food without minding a thing, his mother had tried to break the silence by asking

"How was work today son?"

It was the fine mother he responded not in his usual cold tone, it seemed like he is in a good mood she thought to herself, perhaps it might be the right time to tell him the decision his father and herself had made, she needed a grandchild and there was no other lady more perfect than the lady sitting across.

She continued "isn't Mi Cha looking lovely?" she asked with a huge smile on her face.

He raised his eyes to look at her and he replied

"Hmmmn"

Her heart skipped a bit, "did he just agree with his mother that she looked lovely" she thought to herself blushing a little.

He couldn't deny that she was very attractive but he just didn't feel anything for her, she'd make a good wife for someone else, not himself, mother and father Lee felt they needed to give them space to talk,

Father Lee stood up, from the dining wiping his mouth with a serviette paper mother Lee did same.

"Be a gentleman and drop her off at home when you're done"
