Pay With Your Heart

Ji-Tae threw his head back and laughed as he looked at the pictures which had just been sent to him. He glanced at it again and he laughed even harder.

Who knew President Lee had such a side to him? Waiting for a woman and kissing her so passionately.

He slides through the pictures again. He paused when he saw the one with Dan-Han leading Eun-sun towards his car. He didn't need to guess where he was taking her, and what might have transpired between them last night. Dan-Han would love to prove to her that his allegations against him weren't real, that's if she told him.

What a cheeky bastard!

How he had fulfilled his promise of helping Eun-sun get her man back. Another round of mirthless laughter rumbled out of his chest. He had said that to mess with her, but who knew he'd be keeping to his word? She must be feeling appreciative towards him at the moment.

She better be.

He should have known such a kindergarten prank wouldn't work on Dan-Han. Trying to distract him with his girlfriend? Who was he kidding?

Tsk. He should have thought better.

As predictable as he thought Dan-Han could be, his plan had still failed through. Kwon-Nara and that stupid director were just as useless in all this.

He hissed and tossed his phone on the desk frustratedly. He didn't know why, but he hated the look on Dan-Han's face as he stared at Eun-sun. He didn't like it at all. Maybe it wasn't the way he was staring at her, but he just disliked everything about him.

The man was so prideful of himself. He was dying to teach him a lesson.

He frowned when his phone started to ring, and his frown deepened when he saw who the caller was. He wasn't expecting this call anytime soon.

Sitting upright, he answered the call.

"Hello." He said politely.

"I'm meeting with him tonight, so I wonder what exactly have you been doing?" A calm voice spoke through the phone, making crease lines appear on his forehead.

"I'm working on it," Ji-Tae said. His brows furrowed when he heard nothing from the other side.

After a while, the man spoke again. "I need not remind you what's at stake or what you stand to lose if you fail me. I wonder what he'd do to you when he finds out what you're doing in his company." Ji-Tae frowned harder at his words.

"I'll get it done." He assured.

"I'll meet him tonight, but get him off my back as soon as possible." The man said impatiently and disconnected the call.

Ji-Tae felt the veins of his head twitch as his hand tightly gripped his phone. He closed his eyes to calm himself. He couldn't let his anger engulf him. He should be more focused on getting his task done, or maybe getting to understand what was truly going on. Apart from his desires to topple Dan-Han which have been exploited, he really didn't know why he was there. Why was he a pawn in someone else' ploy? He was currently looking into it, but he was yet to find his answers.

He should focus on Dan-Han first, then he'll figure out the rest later. A hundred thoughts instantly went through his mind on how to execute his plan.

To distract Dan-Han meant to totally destroy him, and he needed a foolproof plan for that.

He lifted his eyes towards the door when someone knocked and pushed the door open without his permission. A deep frown creased his brows when he saw who it was.

His eyes rifled her from head to toes. The nerves she has showing up here at this time.

"You must really have a lot of free time on your hands to have you drop by now and then." He said sarcastically as Kwon Nara approached his desk.

"Good morning to you too." She hissed and dropped her bag on his desk before taking her seat.

"I didn't ask you to sit." He drawled at her, but she ignored him.

"Why is your sister so annoying?" She hissed making Ji-Tae cock a brow.

"My sister?" Ni-Na was here? Of course, she was. She was Dan-Han's loyal little kitten.

"You should stay out of her way."

"She should stay of mine." Kwon-Nara snapped while Ji-Tae raised his brows at her. She was getting too bold.

Has he perhaps made a mistake of bringing her? She wasn't being useful to him.

He lolled back on his seat but his eyes were keenly narrowed at her. "You do remember why you're here, don't you?" He asked but she eyed and ignored him.

Leaning a bit closer, he asked again. "Don't you?" Kwon-Nara swallowed at the change of his countenance and voice. His eyes were dark and threatening.

She nodded. "Yes, I do."

Ji-Tae straightened himself on his seat. "I don't have the leisure of time for you to mess around anymore. I'm sure by now he must have clarified whatever doubt she has in her heart by telling her who you are." He sighed remembering how the love birds had ruined his plan before he even started. He had hoped to drag out their feud a bit more, that way Dan-Han would get his eyes off the company at least for a short while and focus on other things, but it seems he had overestimated Eun-sun's emotional instability, and underestimated her love and want to be with Dan-Han.

Other ladies would probably want to drag out this misunderstanding for some days especially after seeing an 'ex', but she just easily gave in. Didn't women love the chase? He wondered.

'Women! So unpredictable!'

"I want you to go along with the original plan." He told her, and the nervous look that flashed through her face didn't miss him.

"You're scared?" He raised a brow.

Shouldn't she be?

"I still don't think it's a good one." She said matter of factly. "Something like that isn't enough to fool Dan-Han. He can easily get rid of me to clear it out." She told him with a hint of fear. She shuddered at the thought of provoking Dan-Han with the so-called plan Ji-Tae has.

A wicked smile played on his face, "I'm counting on that." He said making her frown. He didn't mean that, did he?

"President Lee charged for murder? That would make an incredible headline." He chuckled.

Kwon-Nara brows tightened as she closely observed him.. She felt uncomfortable with the look in his eyes. What was he truly planning?
