Pay With Your Heart

Chapter 216 - Jealous And Possessive

Dan-Han sat on his chair with his back against his desk while he looked at the view outside the floor to roof window, as he was completely lost in thought. He couldn't get In-Ha's confession out of his mind. It had bothered him all night and even now. But what bothered him more was the stupid reply he had given him. He regretted his stupid reply to In-Ha last night. Why had he said that?! How could he be so stupid?!

He had been so angry last night and it had to do with his father's ploy against him and his relationship. And knowing there was some other opposition for his yet to bloom relationship, made his mood worsen so much that he had just blurted that out. But how could he do that?

ā€‹ā€‹

How could he be so foolish to tell someone else to confess his feelings to girlfriend? Maybe he trusted her feelings for him but.....hell he didn't know. He didn't know why he did that. That was so unlike him. And it was a lame and weak move. It didn't speak well of his character.

He flashed back to what Jae-Hyun had said, "Telling him is the best option you've got, and you've got to do it now. In-Ha would feel betrayed if you let him wallow in his day-dream of having her when all the while you knew she was with you."

He understood what Jae-Hyun was trying to say but what if being outrightly honest with In-Ha would cost him their friendship of over two decades? And what happens if he doesn't stop this? He might lose his girl right? Why were such things happening so suddenly?

Though Eun-sun had said she 'thinks' she was love in with him, he still didn't think that was enough. He wanted her to know. Thinking and knowing weren't the same thing. Their relationship was too young to face rejection as well as have a love rival, most especially a strong one as In-Ha. He really shouldn't have told In-Ha that stupid response.

This was bad.

Dan-Han was still lost in his thoughts, when his phone started ringing. His heart skipped when he saw it was Eun-sun calling. This was the first time she was calling him on her volition, and it made him smile. What happened to her today?

"Mr Lee?" Her sweet small voice came from the other side of the phone reminding him all the many reasons why he should fight for her and protect her with his life.

"Hmm"

"Can I ask you something?" She asked in a very small voice, almost sounding as if she was nervous.

"What is it?" Dan-Han asked back.

"Ermm, can we not have lunch today? Iā€“"

"Why?" A quick frown formed between his brows, and his tone turning slight hard making Eun-sun nervous. She hesistated for a while before she replied him, "Mr Lee if I tell you you won't be angry right?" She couldn't forget how jealous Dan-Han had been because In-Ha and Jinhai had given her flowers or when she had hugged In-Ha. He had already told her not to get too close to other men. So how was he going to take the idea of her breaking their routine to have lunch with someone else? It definitely wasn't going to be good, because this man was a jealous and possessive demon.

Dan-Han's brows were already knotted together to hear what she wanted to say. He had a feeling he wasn't going to like it.

"Tell me." He said curtly.

"A friend asked me out for lunch and lā€“"

"Who?" He cut her short. He had a feeling who this friend could be. If he remembered correctly she had just three friends. Fortunately for him the male one had travelled, the other was currently at work, and the last was In-Ha. So which of them?

"Erm...In-Ha" She replied softly. Was Dan-Han surprised to hear it was In-Ha who wanted to take her out for lunch? No he wasn't. Rather he'd be surprised if he wasn't the one.

"What if i say I don't want you to go?" He asked.

"Hmmm...." Eun-sun hesistated, she didn't know what to say. She didn't really need his permission to go out and hang out with friends but she couldn't ignore the fact that it was going to make him unhappy, he was possessive of her and for some reason it made her happy knowing that she meant something to someone, it meant that someone valued her and wanted to keep her for himself, this was a feeling she had lacked for years. A feeling of being truly wanted. Taking his feelings into consideration was necessary since he was now one of the most important person's in her life, if not the most important. He was yet to officially ask her out like he said he would, but they were already together right?

Dan-Han sighed when she hesistated like that. She had lived a hard knock life and he shouldn't make things harder for her by restricting her. He didn't want her to feel suffocated or feel restricted. He'd let her do whatever she wants. He wants her to be happy, and he wants to see her smile more often just as she has been, recently. He'd find a way to handle things and rectify his mistake. He didn't want her to hear the love confession of another man other than his.

"You can go, but don't forget to less spicy and oily food, and also eat a lot of fruits too." He told her. As much as he didn't want her to go, he still have to look after her health.

Eun-sun smiled to herself when she heard him, he was always so attentive and loving towards her. For some reason she wanted to stay behind and have lunch with him instead of going out with In-Ha, but then she had promised him since she had been postponing all their outings and she couldn't do that anymore.
