Chapter 14 - Take my word

"Well where do I begin "

Hae  Won:(smirking) Mmm if you're expecting some bad ass story im sorry to disappoint, I'm just doing it for the fun of it.

Mr Jung :(confused) Fun?

Hae Won: Yes I just like sticking  it to big bullies like Mr Lee.

Mr Jung:(frustrated) If you're against Mr Lee why am i getting harmed in the process?

Hae Won: Sooner or later you'll realize I'm actually doing you a huge favour.

Mr Jung:(chuckles)  Pshh I'm calling the cops

Hae Won: I wouldn't do that if I were you.

Mr Jung:(defensive)  Is that  a threat?

Hae Won: (smiling) No ,it's just a friendly warning

Mr Jung:Seriously who are you!?

Hae Won:You already know the answer to that. Mmm I see you're not buying my story about doing it for fun .

Mr Jung:Clearly!

Hae Won: Well I can't tell you what it really  about because  it's quite emotional you see.But I mean no harm to you.Infact I have it all planned out

Mr Jung :(chuckles) Awe me going bankrupt

Hae Won: That's just phase one of the plan.I have 3 more phases .

Mr Jung :(intrigued) What are these phases?

Hae Won: I can only tell you phase 2 and if you don't want to be part of my plan I'll have to kill you .

Mr Jung:(shocked)What!You said you don't want to harm me.

Hae Won:(petting him)Never trust people's word that almost got me dead a couple years ago. I've already exposed myself  I can't just let you roam free as I wait for you to turn on me.

Mr Jung: You must be kidding me

Hae Won: (pulling out her gun) I'm not.

Mr Jung just freezes

Hae Won: (putting it back)But I'm sure it won't get to that. Right?

Mr Jung: (hesitant) Right

Hae Won: Good, since we're on the same page I'll tell you phase 2.Well once you sell your company   you can give A quarter  of the money to Mr Lee to pay off your ridiculous debt for the deposit he made in your company when you were only starting up.

Mr Jung: I can't do that.Thats outrageous it's more that I owe him.

Hae Won :You will do it ,and as for the extra money you will ask to be freed from any other deals you might have made in the past . I already  have  a company I started 2 years ago it's tech and right up your alley you can run that for the meanwhile. It's currently  worth thrice as much as yours .

Mr Jung: If you have all this why do you need me.

Hae Won :Awe that's for phase 3 where your connections and experience with the Korean market will be needed.

Mr Jung :But ...

Hae Won: No buts,I chose you for a reason and nothing will change my mind.

Mr Jung:Lets say I consider this offer of yours  even though it looks dodgy  and like one of those scams from action movies,  I can't do that to my employees

Hae Won: Don't worry about them they'll all get jobs .Good jobs actually.

Mr Jung:(stressed)This is alot to take in

Hae Won:Don't worry about it ,you can think things through on your way to America.

Mr Jung: America?

Hae Won: Yes your plane leaves in an 1hr so we better get going .(She pulls out the gun)Step on it

He just stares at her and she takes it as a challenge and just pulls the trigger at the roof.

Hae Won: I said drive.

Mr Jung does as told and in a flash he sees himself sitting in a plane ,silently begging for help as everyone ignores him.

Hae Won:  I'm sorry I had to be rough on you but when you get to the other side you will surely understand and when you come back I won't have to force.

She goes back home

Miss Park: Where were you ?

Hae Won: Aish don't worry about me.I just went to get a new pair of glasses.

Miss Park:(sulking)I was going to buy them for you tomorrow.

Hae Won:It's okay I had been saving up already so I took the opportunity.

Miss Park: (sad)I see...

Hae Won :I'm going to sleep now

Miss Park :But you haven't had dinner

Hae Won: Don't  worry I'm okay.

Hae Won goes off to her room leaving Miss Park wondering

Miss Park: (sad)Poor thing ,seeing that man must have really gotten to her.She hasn't even had a bite since yesterday

Flashback to an 1h ago

Hae Won: (smiling) I brought ramyeon

Ricky: My favourite,and you even got me 2 extra

Hae Won: No those are for me ,you're only getting one.

Ricky: Aish greedy much

Hae Won: (sulking) I haven't had a proper meal since yesterday. This being the bad guy thing takes alot of energy you know.

Ricky:But  your performance was really bad ass.

Hae Won: Really

Ricky: (teasingly) No I'm just kidding.Forget about the Oscars you wont even get cast in a school play.

Hae Won: I'll just stick to being a geek then

Ricky:(petting her)Good thinking, now eat up before your noodles get soggy

Hae Won:(smiling)  You had me at eat up.

Present time

Hae Won: Man I ate way too much my stomach is about to burst.

Next day

Hae Won reaches the office and it's a complete  mess.

Hae Won: Whats going on here?

Heejin:(excited) Omo you're back, I  heard you weren't feeling well

Hae Won :Yeah but I'm better now.

Heejin: You missed out on alot though.(whispering) You'll never believe what happened yesterday.

Hae Won:What?

Heejin: Mr Oh got fired ,he was stealing from the company

Hae Won: OMO but he looks like he's such a nice person.

Heejin:That was all an act

Hae Won: I guess you never really know someone

Heejin:And now Mr Jung didn't come to work.This is the first time he's missed work.

Hae Won: Maybe something came up

Heejin:I doubt it,rumour has it that the other board members are going to remove him from his post since Mr Oh stole right under his nose.

Hae Won:(smiling)  Awe really (in mind)Rumours never cease to amaze me.I have all the other shares,yet I never spoke of this.

Heejin:The worst part is Miss Do is extra cranky today so try to avoid her for the rest of the day.

Hae Won: Okay thanks for the heads up.

Miss Do comes out of her office holding a stack of files .

Miss Do:I see that you've gotten better.You even have time to gossip with Miss Ko

Hae Won :(shocked)How...

Miss Do :I see and hear everything. Now here's some work for you to do since you're not that busy.

Hae Won: Umm okay ma'am

Miss Do:Make sure you're done by tomorrow.

Hae Won:(fake smiling)  Sure thing ma'am.

Miss Do goes off to her office

Heejin:Omo how are you going to get it done by tomorrow. This might take me 2weeks.

Hae Won: Don't worry about it.(in mind)I doubt anyone will care about this tomorrow. Things are about to change around here.
