Chereads / THE HENCHMAN / Chapter 30 - Code red

Chapter 30 - Code red

Hae Won :Mr Lee?

Ricky: Yes the little  company  was just what Mr Lee's  company  needed at the moment  and he had no idea who the owner was .Hyun Bin is actually set for life because of that .

Hae Won: I guess he finally made him pay for torturing him

Ricky: Yes so is this enough ammunition

Hae Won: It's more than enough,  Mr Lee would flip out if he found out he got played by his own son. He already doesn't like him so it wouldn't hurt him to put a bullet through his head.

Ricky: Now you can thank me

Hae Won: You seriously are the best.

Ricky: I know I know

Hae Won :But wait ,I know for sure he doesn't like his dad.Why does he stick  around if he can just go off and start afresh far away

Ricky: I can only find the digital information, the emotional stuff you'll  have to get on your own

Hae Won:(teasingly)  I guess you aren't as amazing  as you think.

Ricky: Well I could synthesize a couple possibilities but it's better to just find out on your own isn't that right.

Hae Won: I'll see how everything goes on Monday.

Ricky:Okay then

Hae Won :One more thing

Ricky: What?

Hae Won: Could we keep this between us,I wouldn't want Mr So and Mr Jung thinking I'm compromising the case

Ricky: It's cool my lips are sealed.

Suddenly their watches start beeping

Ricky: Code red!

Hae Won: Mr Jung is in trouble

Ricky: Let me get his location....got it.

Hae Won: Where is he

Ricky: It's a warehouse ,I guess I don't need to check who owns it

Hae Won:We better get going, do you have the gun?

Ricky:Ofcourse

Hae Won: Let's go protect what's ours then

They track Mr Jungs location .

Hae Won:You stay in the car I'll go check it out if I need back up then I'll call you

Ricky: (sulking) Why do I get to stay back

Hae Won: Who always whooped your ass in combat class?

Ricky: (ashamed) You did

Hae Won: (smirking) Got anymore questions?

Ricky: No

Hae Won: Glad we're on the same page.Be ready to make a quick gateway.

Hae Won goes off and surveys the area.She finds a nice place to hide whilst she watches Mr Jung  being dragged in by Sung-jin to the table Mr Lee is seated at.

Mr Lee: Hello old friend

Mr Jung: (sarcastic) Seems like you've been doing well

Mr Lee :(fake smiling) Ofcourse ,you know I take care of myself

Mr Jung: I see

Mr Lee: I've been meaning to talk to you but I never really got the chance

Mr Jung: You are a busy man afterall

Mr Lee: Seems like you the jackpot whereever you disappeared to

Mr Jung: Luck favours those less fortunate

Mr Lee: I see....So why did you come back

Mr Jung: I missed being home,seeing familiar faces and all

Mr Lee: Is that all

Mr Jung: Yes

He signals Sung-jin, who immediately smashes Mr Jungs head onto the table

Mr Lee: (serious) You see I'm not here to play around.Where did you get the money?

Mr Jung:(laughing)  It's called business

Mr Lee  personally smashes his head this time around

Mr Lee:(pissed) You think I'm playing around huh

Mr Jung: You know you can't kill me right.

Mr Lee: I wasn't thinking about that but now that you've planted the thought inside my head so I might as well.

Mr Jung :It would be way too obvious that it was you

Mr Lee: I've gotten away with much worser crimes

Mr Jung: Did you think I'd  come back here ,just to piss  you off without any protection.

Mr Lee:(smirking)  Well I got you here didn't I?

Mr Jung: (grinning) What's that on your chest.

He looks down and there's a red dot aiming for his heart and one aiming for Sung-jin's head

Mr Jung: (standing up)I think it's time for me to leave,untie me will you.

Sung-jin looks at Mr Lee for consent and he unwilling gives it.

Mr Jung: (smiling) I'll see you gentleman around.I hope next time you won't be too violent okay.

Mr Jung walks out of the warehouse, straight into the van closely followed by  Hae Won then Ricky drives off.

Mr Lee:(mad) This means war

Sung-jin: I'll go after him

Mr Lee: Not now ,he'll be expecting that. We have to wait it out ,make him think we've forgotten, then just strike when he least expects it.

Sung-jin:(meh) Whatever you say sir.

MEANWHILE ....in the van

Hae Won: Are you okay ?

Mr Jung: Yes thanks to you .

Hae Won: But your face is all bruised now

Mr Jung: Don't worry I'll heal quickly

Ricky: Should I take you to the hospital

Mr Jung: No take me home

Hae Won:(worried)  Are you sure ?

Mr Jung :Yes I'm sure

They soon arrive at his house

Hae Won: Do you need anything

Mr Jung :No I'm perfectly fine

Hae Won: Okay Ricky will spend the night here to look after you.

Mr Jung: That's not necessary

Ricky :Come on we'll have a boys night

Mr Jung: If you insist. And Hae Won just a little heads up,your mom think we're dating.

Hae Won:(chuckles)  She has completely  lost it!

Timeskip

Miss Park :You're back

Hae Won: You think that I'm dating Mr Jung

Miss Park: So the old man snitched on me

Hae Won: I can tell you this ,we are not. We're just business partners

Miss Park: (sarcastic) So you have meetings at cafes ,sit next to each other and take selfies.

Hae Won: I only sat besides him because we had to video call someone, not take selfies.

Miss Park:(suspicious)  What job are you doing for these people your working for anyway?

Hae Won: I told you I handle the finances. You've just made things super awkward between us

Miss Park: Okay okay I'm sorry

MEANWHILE...at the Lee's they are having dinner

Mrs Lee :You should've stayed in the hospital

Mr Lee:(annoyed) Can't you see I'm perfectly fine

Mrs Lee: And where did you go off with Sung-jin?

Mr Lee: Can't I have my dinner in peace!

Suddenly the maid arrives  with a note

Mrs Lee: What is it?

Mr Lee: It's an invitation from Miss Park.
