Chapter 350: Chapter 350

Dan-Han’s Office

“What do you want me to sign?” Eun-sun hurriedly asked the moment she walked into Dan-Han’s office. She wondered what he needed her signature for, even though her instinct told her it might be about his plans for her, but she still had doubt as they had only talked about it last night.

“Here.” He passed two documents to her. One was a deed for the land, while the other was about for transfer of shares.

She gazed at the man with utter surprise. “This...we just talked about it last night.” She told him. How could he have all this prepared already?

“Last night is long enough. I take matters about you marrying me seriously, so please sign.” He gestured with his chin for her to sign.

Eun-sun was dumbfounded. She looked at the papers and at Dan-Han and she couldn’t believe this was happening. Her heart suddenly pounded.

“This feels surreal, Dan-Han.” She breathed out, making the man smile.

.....

“I know.” He passed her a pen.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

Eun-sun drew in a short, shaky breath to calm her nervous self. Sweat suddenly covered her palms and her fingers slightly fidgeted as she picked up the pen.

Her heart stopped when she saw her name written on the paper. She still couldn’t believe it. She had imagined working her ass off to attain something like this, and would not care how long it might take, but now....She has more than she could imagine getting in the next five to ten years, and all this was because of Mrs Lee. Although this was an outrageously generous gift, she would have preferred if the woman was here with them. With her.

She heaved a sigh as she signed the papers. She told herself this was what mother wanted, and she was grateful for this.

She closed the file and passed it to Dan-Han, who smiled as he examined it.

“I guess I’m a step closer to being with you now.” He said, while Eun-sun blinked rapidly in disbelief. That was supposed to be her line, but he stole it.

“We have mother to thank for this.”

“Indeed.” He put the file away in his drawers.

“That’ll be all, right?” Eun-sun inquired.

“Yes.” He replied, and she quickly rose to her feet.

“You’re not going to ask me questions?” He asked, making her glance at him.

“Questions about what? The files?”

“Yes. You just signed-”

“I trust you, Lee Dan-Han, with my life. And without you, I wouldn’t have those things in the first place, and I also know you’re more keen on marrying me than I am.” she told him.

He thoughtfully nodded. “I see.”

“Yes, you see. Now if there’s nothing, I’ll take my leave.”

“Take your leave? You want to leave right away?” Dan-Han frowned on hearing her words.

“I have some work waiting for me.”

“So you want to leave right away?” He tilted a brow at her.

Eun-sun sighed, seeing his unpleasant expression. “What now?”

“Lunch is up now.”

“Um...I don’t think I can lunch. I’ll grab a sandwich from the cafeteria. There’s so much-”

“Grab a Sandwich?” Dan-Han interjected her as he stared at her with incredulity. His silent gaze challenging her to repeat what she had just said.

Eun-sun flashed him an easing smile and walked round his desk and towards him, his eyes keenly following her. She held his face up and pecked his cheek.

“I like how you take care of me, President Lee, but right now, I have to work. There’s so much to do.” Her fingers gently stretching out the crease line between his brows.

He sighed deflatedly. “I don’t like this.”

“I know.” She pecked him, her face still revealing a disarming smile he couldn’t resist.

“Small girl, stop smiling at me like that.” He hissed and turned away, making Eun-sun smile even more.

“Formidable CEO Lee, you can be cute when you want to.” She teased.

“Stop patronizing me, stubborn girl.” He glared at her, making Eun-sun chuckle.

He stared at her and sighed. “Fine, you can go. But be done with work on time.”

“Am I spending the night at your place today?” Eun-sun innocently asked, but the look from Dan-Han’s eyes made her want to take her words back, but she was already too late.

“You don’t want to?” He asked, but Eun-sun vigorously nodded her head.

“I want to.” She hurriedly said. “But, it’s just that I missed Hei-Ran and I thought maybe I should go home today, and...” She paused when his countenance gravely changed.

“And...”

“And..I don’t think I’ll be done with work early. I might be a little late.”

“A little?” Dan-Han frowned, knowing what her ‘a little’ meant, especially with work. He had the urge to protest, but he bit his lips and sighed. This was who she was, a hard worker. He had met her like this, and even though he wanted her to work less, he couldn’t change who she was. As a matter of fact, he wanted her to always be herself as well as be the better version of who she has always been.

“Fine, I’ll wait for you, but no later than 7:30. And we can stop by at your place before we head for mine. Is that good?” he asked. Dan-Han knew from the moment she said she wanted to go see Hei-Ran and work late, he was bound to compromise.

This girl had made him a love struck fool, but he had no complaints.

Eun-sun smiled and nodded, knowing that was as far as he could go. Actually, she had expected him to flip the moment she said the work ‘late. She heaved inwardly.

“7:30” She pecked him and sauntered away before he could grab her waist and pull her down.

“Babe.” He called, halting her on her heels. She turned to him again.

“Don’t get any junk from the cafeteria. Chang-wok will deliver your lunch.”

“Chang-wok? Please don’t.” She hastily pleaded. She didn’t want another drama like the one she had this morning. Chang-Wok’s appearance will attract attention towards her and she didn’t want that..

“You can leave, Ms Eun-sun. Have a nice day.” He said dismissively, before turning towards the laptop on his desk.

Having nothing to say, Eun-sun sighed and walked away. There was nothing she could do to change his mind. Her mind drifted back to the bulk of files on her desk and the close deadline she had. Her heart skipped. She would never be done by 7:30. Dan-Han was definitely going to have her head later tonight.

And it was exactly as Eun-sun had predicted when secretary Chang-wok delivered lunch to her desk. She could see and feel the curiosity in the surrounding eyes, even Hye-Jin. She shared her lunch with her and soon plunged herself back to work after eating.

She was working hard to avoid the storm that might brood from Dan-Han, little did she know Dan-Han would be the least of her worries.
