Chapter 28 - Call girl

Sunday morning

Mrs Lee: Howcome you left early dear?

Hyun Bin: I wasn't feeling okay .

Mr Lee:(chuckles)  Thats what he always says.

Mrs Lee: Its no biggie  ,the party wasn't all that anyway.

Mr Lee:(excited)  On that note has the paper come in yet?

Sung-jin:(meh) Yes it has.

Mr Lee: (sarcastic) Should I ask you to give it to me as well

Sung-jin: I dont think you want to see it.

Mr Lee: I spent $105 ,500,000 yesterday, ofcourse I want to see it.(fantasizing) They might just name me a saint and want to put up a statue of  me.

Hyun Bin: (chuckles) So much for modesty

Sung-jin: Okay

He places the news paper infront of him and Mr Lee loses it .

Mr Lee:(infuriated)  How did this happen...How!

He just starts gasping for  air then collapses

Hyun Bin: Omo dad

Mrs Lee :Honey!

Sung-jin: Step away

He starts resuscitating him whilst Hyun Bin calls the ambulance

MEANWHILE ....at the Parks

Hae Won :(smiling) Good morning

Miss Park: You look awfully happy today

Hae Won: Can't I be happy for no reason

Miss Park :No it's okay, you just rarely smile that's all

Hae Won: Well  today is a good day...anywho has the paper arrived.

Miss Park: Yes,let me go get it

As she's walking it back to Hae Won she sees  a familiar face on the front page of the paper

Miss Park: Isn't this your old boss

Hae Won: Yes it's him

Miss Park:Spent $211,000,000...(shouting in disbelief) $211,000,000 ! Didn't you say he was bankrupt ?Didn't you lose your job because of that

Hae Won:Rich people find it easy to make money once they are broke.

Miss Park: (sulking) Aish such good fortune

Hae Won:(teasingly) I know right

Miss Park: Wait weren't you also at  a charity thingy last night.

she checks the paper again

Hae Won: Yes ,it's the same one.People were really generous

Miss Park: No wonder why you're so happy

Hae Won: Did you read at the end

Miss Park: And Mr Lee managed to  donate half as much.....Well he won't be too happy about that

Hae Won: I know right

Miss Park: Wait did you have anything to do with this

Flashback

Hae Won: So is everyone  clear on the plan

Mr Jung: I donate double of whatever he donates

Hae Won: Yes it doesn't matter how high he goes.

Mr Jung: He's not going to like that

Hae Won: Exactly, but more importantly  people will take you more seriously

Ricky: (excited) You will  be the man who out bid Mr Jung

Hae Won: (clearing her throat)Its donating not bidding.

Ricky: Whatever the terminology is ,he should just come out on top

Mr Jung:That won't be hard

Hae Won: And Ricky you know   what your role is?

Ricky: (chilled)I should make the news spread like wildfire, on the internet and ofcourse those boring news papers of yours

Hae Won: And....

Ricky: Awe yeah I should make our dear Mr Jung look like an angel then give a little  mention to Mr Lee saying  something  nice but deflating his ego in the process.

Hae Won:Spot on, I think we're ready for this

Present time

Hae Won:(smirking) How would I know about anything. I was just hoping the would  donate generously and they did more than I expected  .

Miss Park :(not convinced) Mmm if you say so.But hey  why would your ex boss come and spend so much money at a charity you're hosting

Hae Won :He's just a nice man

Miss Park: What if he has ulterior motives, you should never trust these wealthy man.

Hae Won: Mr Jung isn't like that, I see him like a dad

Miss Park: But does he see you like  a daughter

Hae Won: You  worry too much.

Suddenly her phone ring

Hae Won: I have to answer this

She takes the call

Hae Won: You did good

Ricky: I never disappoint

Hae Won: Did you call so that you can gloat

Ricky: No ,do you remember I tapped into Hyun Bin' s phone ?

Hae Won: Yes and ..

Ricky: A couple minutes ago he called the hospital, the old man had a heart attack

Hae Won:(chuckles) Karma works even faster than I thought.Is he okay though

Ricky: I'm not sure

Hae Won: Don't you have eyes in the hospital

Ricky: I do but then the doctor hasn't come out of the emergency room yet

Hae Won: Okay keep  me posted.

He ends the call

Hae Won: He can't kick the bucket just yet.I won't let him.

Miss Park: (curious) Who

Hae Won: (smiling) Just some old man from work.

Miss Park: Awe..

Hae Won: Anyway  I have a meeting to get to, I'll  be back later.

Miss Park: But it's Sunday,they are abusing you.I need to meet this boss of yours.

Hae Won: No I signed up for this ,its okay.Plus he's all the way in America.

Miss Park: I fly there if I have to

Hae Won: Just forget about it.

Hae Won leaves for her meeting but Miss Park isn't having it and follows her out. She arrives at a cafe.

Miss Park :Are they having meetings at cafes now.

She starts spying from the outside

Mr Jung :Everything went according to plan

Hae Won: Yes and I  have news

Mr Jung :Go on

Hae Won: Wait let's call Mr So , I want to tell you both at the same time.

She goes and sits beside Mr Jung whilst she video calls Mr So

MEANWHILE...outside

Miss Park: What's going on....Omo is she dating that old man...Why did she have to go and sit next to him...An unknown boss who gives her a huge house...An ex boss who donates a large amount...Why would they be doing all this...Which line of work is she in now...I never see  her doing any finance stuff...Each time she gets a call she acts weird...I know she's trying to get close to Mr Lee ...Omo Omo is she now one of those call girls....No not my Hae Won  ....There must be an explanation for all this....But she doesn't trust me anymore...I'll have to intervene like any mother would  ... What have you gotten yourself into dear.

MEANWHILE ....Inside the cafe
