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

Eun Ha turned slowly at hearing the voice of Chae Won, she didn't recognize him, she hadn't seen him the day she met with Muchen but his face did look familiar, he approached her and said politely,

" his office is this way" he swung his hands in a dramatic manner pointing towards the direction of the office,

Thank you sir she said simply, still surprised of why he was being nice to her and why he considered her significant, the receptionist was shocked at the scene that unraveled before her eyes, she could feel a sudden adrenaline rush through her veins

"Have i made a mistake? have I challenged the wrong person, she asked herself repeatedly"

"Eun Ha glanced at her as her eyes met hers" she gave her a soft look, she wasn't angry, she knew she was probably doing her job but why she was being overly protective of her boss was what she couldn't phantom, he receptionist was the least of her problems, she had a much bigger one, she almost made the decision to return back home and just keep the money, not because she wanted to keep it but because she was scared, she didn't know what to expect, how he would react, she was extremely tensed. She swallowed hard as her throat went dry, she felt something for this stranger whose child she was carrying, something, she wanted to kill whatever she felt before it became difficult to handle, the more she tried to suppress it, the stronger it became, she cursed herself repeatedly

"Eun Ha don't make a fool out of yourself, he isn't your class, he can never be yours, he has the governors daughter, showing interest in him, how could you ever compete." she was having a complete conversation in her head as the walk to his office took longer than expected,

" ma'am, ma'am" Chae Won called twice bringing her back to reality

She didn't realise they were already on front of the office door, while other offices in the building had a transparent glass which produced blurred images of the people or things inside the office of you were to look at it from the outside but Muchen's office was different, it was tinted which made it almost impossible for one to view the Contents inside the took in multiple breaths to be calm and collected but this time her guts had failed her. Chae Won made his way back to the elevator, he had other important things to take care of leaving her all by herself in front of the office, after 2 minutes she gave a slight knock on the door and pushed the door opened,

Her eyes fell on his as she immediately shifted her eyes away from him, he was putting on a black colored suit with a white shirt, he hung the suit on the rack at the side of the office and had removed his tie, he folded the arms of his shirt, that wa show he liked working, but only Chae Won had seen him that way and perhaps his receptionist.

Eun Ha's eyes fell on his shirt, he was quite muscular which was hidden in the suit ihis dark colored hair made waves that fell to the side of his face, her heart thumped as she stiffened unable to say a word.

Muchen had noticed that, he knew it was the usual effect he had on girls, she was looking stunning with he black colored boot heels and slight makeup, he had never seen her like that before, his eyes feel on her lips which looked like a carefully crafted art piece.

Go...oo.. od afternoon sir she stammered as she managed to say.

Hello he retorted simply

He offered her a seat on the leather couch that was In his office and moved closer to her, he wanted her to feel a bit relaxed, so he sat facing her, have you been well?

"Yyees I have," she stuttered once more, she was drooling over the heat that was emanating from his body as he sat close to her, she could feel every fiber of her body reacting to his presence, Muchen smiled quickly, this was what he wanted, she felt something too.

" Can I get you something to drink?"

"Water would do" she responded as the tension eased up gradually.

He walked straight to the fridge and got her a bottle of water and a glass cup

"Here you go" he said in a calm tone. Which made her more relaxed.

She took a quick glance at him again and reached for her purse

She paused for a while and said, "I know you've been sending groceries to me anonymously, but the last one was sent by you as l saw the tag, I accepted that because I understood you want to take care of the house of your baby but..."

She stammered a little
