"Common Min, we have wasted much time and we can't waste anymore time. You do know that you have an award ceremony to attend in two days, so if you want to bring a little glory back for standing straight there you need to tell Haneul the truth. So tell us what will make you spill everything? What will make you believe in her?" Neul Woo Joon questioned
"A contract" Min Woo Joon smirked, while both Haneul and his father Neul Woo Joon stared at him confused
"What are you speaking?" Neul Woo Joon questioned his son
"I am speaking in the language we all can understand and interpret dear Dad. If you want me to spill every little detail before Ms. Haneul Koo Young, I want her to sign a contract first" Min Woo Joon stated sharply looking at Haneul who is looking all surprised
"I can't understand what you are saying Mr. Min Woo Joon, you already got my contract with Segen Majo transferred to you. You got many rights to your name, I have to pay twice more than what I made all these years interning if I quit this job, you have trapped me from all the sides. You even know that I can't go back even I want to go back as I can't put my career at stake, and you profited out of that. What more do you want?" Haneul screamed on Min, unable to control her emotions any more
Neul Woo Joon understood that his son is trying to make Haneul feel all weak, he understood that his ruthless son is trying something merciless. He made a promise to himself that he will be standing with Haneul Koo Young no matter what happens, he just can't believe this innocent girl can be the reason behind the drastic change in his son
"Why are you getting hyperactive Ms. Haneul Koo Young? I said nothing wrong, I just want to be safe, you know sometimes the one we trust most is the ones who betray us. I have gone through that, people will easily play with humans and emotions ruthlessly, but if papers are in hand, we can at least save our name and fame if not our heart," Min Woo Joon stated in a low pitch but the intensity in his voice made Haneul shiver
She understood that the words are directed towards her, she knew that his heart is wounded, she know that he is broken but so is she. She know that if he is broken, she is shattered from inside beyond explanation. Only if the things didn't have happed the other way
Tears almost made a way to her eyes, she tried hard concealing them but a few slipped down and she immediately looked down to avoid catching any unwanted attention, mainly Min Woo Joon's
"Dad, I never understood one thing, what power does the tears hold? Why do they make us even believe in the wrong things? Why can't we men cry like women?" Min Woo Joon questioned his father
Neul Woo Joon tilted his head to left only to find Haneul wiping her tears using a tissue. He understood that his son in no way is letting go of his ego, he got that his son is trying to pierce Haneul's heart
"Min, it will be good if you stop speaking anything which comes to your mind. Why are you getting side tracked from contract to tears?" Neul Woo Joon questioned seriously
"I am not side tracking dear Dad, I am speaking truth. Only if I had the ability of crying at the moment, I would have saved my image like anything. My tears would have helped me look innocent, I wish we have that power" Min's words hit Haneul directly
Neul tried speaking something but he didn't understand how to kill the fire which is emitting in their hearts
"So, what do you exactly want Mr. Min Woo Joon?" Haneul questioned trying to sound confident
"As I said earlier, I want you to sign a contract with me" Min Woo Joon stated
"What kind of contract?" Haneul questioned back
"What do you mean by what kind of contract Ms. Haneul Koo Young? You know that we need to be bind by a contract as we are going to be together now" Min smiled
"Yeah, that contract should be according to the terms and conditions we both agree. Only then I can accept that" Haneul stated
"I highly doubt that Ms. Haneul Koo Young, as far as I know the employer has the rights to lay terms and the employee has to abide to that. Am I wrong Dad?" Min smirked
Neul Woo Joon got that his son is leaving no stone unturned. He is determined to support this girl, if his son is stubborn; he is not any less stubborn
"I am actually surprised to see you having this amount of knowledge about laws and rights Min, but you are missing something here. As much as the employer has the right to lay terms and conditions the employee to have the rights to accept or reject them. Our law provides them with freedom to change a few clauses according to their wish. Even if there is nothing in the law, I am going to stand with Haneul and if any contract comes into reality it will be according to the terms and conditions, you both will be okay with" Neul Woo Joon stated which sounded more like an order
Haneul's eyes looked at him with appreciation and her mouth quickly mumbled a 'Thank you' which didn't go unnoticed by Min woo Joon
He quite didn't get why his father is supporting an absolute stranger, his ego made him believe that Haneul Koo Young is trying to deceive his father by pulling her trade mark innocent face with a few tears in eyes
