Chapter 98: Spend Time With You

“Make a detour to the city center” Dan-Han ordered on their way back from the project site. They were supposed to return airport but he wanted to take his small woman for a tour before leaving.

Secretary Chang-Wok was surprised the president would give such an order. They had another meeting to attend as soon as they returned to country C, so what the hell was he going to do at the city center.

“But sir we have another meeting with SK groups in two hours’ Secretary Chang-Wok decided to remind him just incase he has forgotten about it.

“It can wait” He curtly replied. Eun-Sun was equally surprised about his sudden announcement. She also wondered what the cold and aloof president would want from the city center.

‘Don’t tell ne he’s like those people who’d get a sourvenir during a trip right?’ She thought to herself as she took a quick glance at him. She was yet to thank him for the opportunity he had given her earlier. She had not expected him to do something like that for her. He might not know it, but that has been the best five minutes of her life. Being relevant in her field and getting to share ideas with people and also being acknowledged had always been her dream.

She was about to say something when Dan-Han started dishing out more orders.

“Chang-Wok call the tarmac and tell them to delay the flight by two hours, and inform the people from SK that the meeting has been rescheduled for 9am tomorrow, but every other thing remains the same”

“Yes boss” Chang-Wok replied as he whipped out his phone and laptop to get to work.

Eun-Sun couldn’t help but admire how the man handled everything. He was efficient and capable. He ruled and governed like a king, who words couldn’t be disputed, like who would even dare disregard the words of the man wnho controlled the economy of nations. Thinking about this right now Eun-Sun realized how far and high this man was from usual folks like herself.

“Don’t stare too much” Dan-Han said, taking her unaware. Eun-Sun blinked her eyes in embarrassement and lowered her eyes. “You shouldn’t openly ogle at man like that, Ms Eun-Sun” He teased, his face still as stoic as ever.

“Mr Lee I wasn’t ogling” She defended herself, as she surreptitiously eyed him. How could she have forgotten how annoying this man could be.

“Hmm” Dan-Han muttered out in agreement as if he didn’t want to argue with her and he was sure that she was indeed ogling. Eun-Sun glared at him before turning to look outside the window. This man was the most annoying man she has ever met, no doubt.

They continued the rest of their journey to the city center in silence. When they arrived there, Eun-sun couldn’t help but gape at the beautiful scenery which was before her. The place looked magnificent. Dan-Han felt proud of himself when he observed her reaction. He was exactly the reaction he was aiming for.

“Wait an hour” Dan-Han said as he buttoned up his suit jacket before turning to Eun-sun and he said, “Let’s go”.

“Me?” Eun-sun pointed a finger to herself. She was surprised because he had said that while looking at her. She thought she was among those who had to wait for his return.

“Now” He said as he stepped out of the car. Eun-sun stared at his back as he alighted the car, as she remained sitted.

“Ms Park, i think he meant right now” Secretary Chang-Wok said when he noticed Eun-sun was still sitted. It seems she hasn’t heard of the man shrewd ways of handling things and people, or how demonic he behaves when his orders are not being promptly obeyed.

Eun-sun glanced at him again before stepping out of the car to join him. She didn’t know what he was doing there or why he had decided to take her along, but for the beautiful sight she could see made her feel grateful.

“This city Square was personally designed by me” He said as they walked ahead. Eun-sun didn’t say anything but she was surprised that he was the one who had designed it.

“It’s the best landmark of country A. And I guess you haven’t been here before” He said looking over his shoulder to look at her.

“And how would know that?” Eun-sun asked in a defiant tone. She didn’t want to lie, but the way he sounded, he made it seem like she was some naive girl who hasn’t seen the world. Well she hasn’t but she wasn’t a country side bumpkin.

“It would be disappointing if you have, because I personally came here for you” He said before grabbing her hand. She was walking too slow, and the slow pace was making his long legs complain.

Eun-sun was stunned. She didn’t know what was wrong with this man, but he keeps saying stuff that have some weird effect on her. Like right now, her heart was having some sort of weird feeling, one she couldn’t explain because she hasn’t felt it before.

She looked down at her hand in his, and she couldn’t even try to wriggle it free from his hold. Why was Mr Lee doing these things to her?

Dan-Han led them to the huge amusement park Eun-sun had to admit that this was the biggest and grandest park she had seen. Even the one at country C didn’t even measure up to it.

“Did you build this too?” Eun-sun couldn’t help but ask. The place was so grand and beautiful.

“Yes. It’s a shame I didn’t know you then. I’m sure you would have provided easy solutions to the problems we faced then” He said.

Eun-sun felt an awkward warm feeling creeping through her. It was the feeling of being acknowledged and held in high esteem by the big boss.

“Mr Lee....” Eun-sun called, halting Dan-Han on his strides. He looked at her with attentive eyes. He could tell she had something to say.

Eun-sun tried not to look directly into his eyes, she bit her lips in embarrassment. She had called his name to tell him that those words he had said were kind words and they had uplifted her morale to work hard. It was nice having someone see you in a different, far from what people have been saying about you. it made her feel good about herself and it made her want to study more just to prove herself and show him that she could more.

But having Dan-Han focus his eyes on her like that, she couldn’t bring those words out of her lips. Rather she said, “Thank you for the opportunity you gave me earlier”

Dan-Han looked at her for some second, before he replied. “Don’t thank me” He said as he fully turned to her, he covered the space between them in a two steps. “I should thank you for helping the company and me” He said his gaze locked on hers. “So Ms Eun-sun don’t thank me. You deserved it” He told her.

Eun-sun couldn’t believe this was the same man she had met weeks ago, and the same person who scared everyone. He was a very strange man.

Eun-sun nodded her head before looking around the park which was bustling with people most especially couples and kids, “Mr Lee what are we here for?” She asked. She remembered he had said he had come here for her, but she was yet to understand what he meant.

Dan-Han didn’t look around like her but rather his eyes was still fixated in her. “To spend time with you” He bluntly replied without hesitation. He didn’t see the need to beat around the bush. He was attracted to her and he wanted her for himself, and has thus decided to pursue her, so she should know he was being pursued by him, that way he could take bolder steps.

Eun-sun’s eyes almost fell out of it’s socket because they were fully widened. “Sp-end time with- me?” She didn’t understand that. Why would he want to spend time her? He was her boss, so why ....

Eun-sun’s heart began to race when she started to catch a glimpse of what was going on.

He was trying to make advances at her right? Eun-sun shook her head in denial. She didn’t want to believe that the evil boss which she was indebted to and she would admit that he sometimes scared her was having interest in her. No way! That wasn’t possible. She slowly looked up at Dan-Han and she wasn’t surprised to see him still staring at her.

Were her thoughts real? Was Dan-Han really showing interest in her? Though she wasn’t experienced in romantic stuffs, but she wasn’t naive and stupid.

The kind of words which Dan-Han had been saying to her and the way he stared at her most especially now, was just the same way those movie characters did in those annoying romance movies.

Did president Lee Dan-Han like her??
