Chapter 383: Little Miss.

Dan-Han stirred up from sleep to see a pair of glistening eyes staring at him. A radiant smile lilted her heart-shaped face when he turned toward her.

“Good morning.” Eun-sun smiled and pecked his lips.

“Hmm.” He muttered as he keenly observed her. She looked happy this morning, but he knew her happiness and sudden sweetness were a trick. He watched as she turned towards the bedside table and wobbly carried a breakfast tray with her uninjured hand.

“I got us breakfast,” She gleefully announced, but the moment his eyes fell on the tray, he frowned.

Understanding the look on his face, she hurriedly explained. “I haven’t left the bed, I promise. I asked Alex for this, and he brought it.”

Dan-Han shot her a skeptical gaze, and she vigorously bobbed her head to affirm she was telling the truth. “I promise, I haven’t left the bed.” She said again.

Dan-Han wordlessly looked at her and the tray.

.....

“I would have loved to make you breakfast, but I know I can’t, well, at least till I get better and you give me clearance to use my leg again.”

“I’m not stopping you, Ms. Park. If you want to walk, then walk. Hop if you like, I don’t own your legs.” He said and turned to the bedside table on his side of the bed. He looked at the time and picked up his robe before rolling out of bed. “Don’t make it sound like I’m controlling you.”

“I didn’t say that,” Eun-sun told him. Observing his countenance, she could tell he was still angry with her. He had returned very late last night, and he still didn’t say a word to her after bringing her to bed. Though she had been sleepy when he returned, she had tried to start a conversation with him, but trust Dan-Han to be a brute.

“Mmm.” He grunted under his breath.

Eun-sun’s steadily placed the tray on the bed and caught the side of his robe before he could walk away. “Why are you leaving? I brought you breakfast...in bed.” She told him, tilting her chin towards the tray with a beautiful rose on it, just in case he didn’t know it was for him, but she was sure he knew.

“Is this some sort of bribery?” He asked.

“Of course not.” Eun-sun convincingly shook her head. She slowly moved towards the edge of the bed, her fingers still holding him, till she pulled him down to sit beside her. Eun-sun carefully crawled into his lap while his hands aided her. Seeing her lashes flutter and her eyes sultrily move in a way that revealed the mischief brewing in her mind, his hands held her steady to see what she had in mind to do.

“This is bribery.” She whispered as she leaned in and gently claimed his lips, just like he always did hers. Slowly and seriously, she teased his lips. Her uninjured hand held his face and slowly trailed down his neck, causing jets of ripples to jolt down his skin.

Dan-Han peeked at her from under his lashes as he let her kiss him. This was her trick to make him forgive her?

Dan-Han remained still as he fought the urge to kiss her back, but what he didn’t know was that his little angel wasn’t going to give him a chance to resist her. He grunted when she gently grazed his lips with her teeth, and her tender hand found its way into his robe.

The soft feel of her lips on his teased him torturously, pulling his nerves and completely wrecking his senses. Her once innocent lips, which always licked him, were not so innocent anymore. She was getting better at knowing how to make him burn.

Dan-Han felt his lips part on their own accord as they let her devour them to be best of her abilities, his hands guiding her and abetting her to commit this sensuous crime she was executing on him. She felt like a small, soft, cute ball with fur in his arms that he desperately wanted to squeeze, but he reminded himself that she wasn’t a ball but rather his injured girlfriend.

When Eun-sun broke the kiss, Dan-Han felt madly hot and burning with desires he had proudly wanted to lock away when this all began, but he had utterly failed. His lips remained parted, and his darkened eyes drooped as they stared at her lips before falling to the fair amount of skin she was intentionally displaying, much to his torment.

“I’m sorry.” She whispered into his ears, her breath fanning his neck and tipping his primal hunger a few degrees higher.

Dan-Han cleared his throat and composed himself. He reminded himself once again that she wasn’t in good shape. “Apology accepted.” He said in a hoarse voice.

Eun-sun triumphantly smiled as she hooked her hand around his neck. “I love you, Mr. Lee. And henceforth, I promise to always look after myself just as you want me to.”

“Good.” He nodded.

Eun-sun adjusted more into his lap. “Umm, so breakfast?” she tilted her head towards the food, slowly going cold behind them.

“Sure.” He replied, making her smile again. What else could he say?

Dan-Han gently placed her on the bed and put a pillow on her back to support her before sitting beside her. He settled the tray between them and handed her a cup of tea.

Eun-sun picked up the rose and handed it to him. “For you.” She said, making him chuckle.

“Thank you.” He said as he received it.

“Smells nice, right?”

“Yes. Thanks.” He replied as he took a whiff of it. It sure did smell like her.

“I have something else for you.” Eun-sun giddily announced. Dan-Han raised a brow as she reached for something in the drawer by her side.

His brows furrowed when she flashed her card before his eyes. “It isn’t a black card, but I’m sure it can definitely get you a nice suit, not your tailor made ones, of course. I’m still your employee. Like in the movies, I want you to shop with my card, baby.” She said and stretched out her card to him.

Dan-Han gazed at the card in her hand, and he didn’t know what to say.

“Hm?” Eun-sun nudged the card forward.

“You’re sure going all out on this bribery of yours,” Dan-Han told her.

“This isn’t part of it. I just want to spoil my man.”

“I see.” Dan-Han nodded as he sipped from his cup.

“So, will you take it?” Eun-sun asked.

“Of course, I will. It’ll give me great pride to empty your bank account on a few things.” He said and received the card.

“I’d be delighted to.” She shrugged and smiled at him.

Dan-Han looked at the card and then at her. He was amused by what was happening but trusts his woman to always do things that amused him.

“I’ll hold on to the card till you’re better, then we can shop together. What do you say?” He asked.

“I’d love that.” Eun-sun smiled.

They were both enjoying their meal when Dan-Han’s phone rang. He ignored the call when he realized it was his Father. He didn’t want his mood this morning to be affected, but the man kept calling.

“You should take that,” Eun-sun told him when it seemed he wouldn’t receive it.

Dan-Han hissed and answered the call. “If you’re going to just, I will let you know I’m not in the mood for that. It’s too early to have a headache.” He said the moment he answered the call.

“Your manners are sure weaning by the day, son.”

“What do you want?” Dan-Han coldly asked. He didn’t have time for any quibbling.

He heard the old man sigh from the other side of the phone. “I sent you a mail. Open it and get back to me.”

“What’s it about?” Dan-Han asked.

“Do as you’re told, boy. And drop by before you head for the office.” He ordered and ended the call. Dan-Han peered at his phone for a while before opening his mail. He saw the one from his father. It was an audio clip. He downloaded it and excused himself before listening to it. He wasn’t trying to be secretive, but if what his father had just sent was sensitive, he didn’t want Eun-sun to hear it. Exclusion was a better way of protection.

‘Sir, I don’t think she was in there.’ A young male voice said.

“The Lee house is the place he’d keep her.” Another voice, which Dan-Han recognized to be Mr. Lee’s voice, said.

“I don’t think he did.”

“Mmm.” The man mumbled.

“Sir, what about the little miss? Should I put more protection around her?”

“There’ll be no need for that. My brother is taking good care of her, so all I need is for things to go as planned. But the arrival of Soo-min is a headache, one I’d like to get rid of. Find her and get rid of her.” He ordered.

Dan-Han listened to the last part of the clip again. He had heard correctly. The child they’ve all been looking for was still alive, and he knew just where to find her.
