Pay With Your Heart

Chapter 122: Party

Hei-Ran’s jaw dropped when she heard what Jinhai said. She didn’t hear wrong did she? He was going to be her what?!

Hei-Ran couldn’t help but blink her eyes as she kept staring at him stupidly.

Jinhai saw the confused look on her face, but he wasn’t going to repeat himself. He was going to see how she’s going to have this so called date of hers. Whoever that guy was, he was going to sabotage this stupid date.

“Let’s go” He said, making Hei-Ran more dumbfounded than how she was earlier. She snapped herself back to reality and spoke.

“Mr Song you can’t go with me” She hurriedly said. Though she wasn’t going on a date with anybody as she has lied, but the fact was she has lied and he was going to find out about it....well she really didn’t care. And secondly, she didn’t want any creature around her in the form of a psychopathic boss, tonight was for her to find a guy, a real guy, a boyfriend who she’ll call her man and put her end to her mother’s craziness.

Jinhai cocked a brow at her and asked, “Why?” his eyes were locked on her face, he watched as her eyes kept dating back and forth. He also didn’t know why he had said such a thing as being a ‘chaperone?’...like how the could he come up with that, but he didn’t mind. What he most certain about was the fact that he wasn’t going to let her have a date, and he doesn’t mind if he means being a chaperone to a twenty eight year old lady.

“But you can’t go with me. Is a date and you can’t be my chaperone. Mr Song I’m an adult and your employee not your -”

.....

“But I’m supposed to be your boyfriend?” He said with a straight face. Hei-Ran’s eyes widen in shock and surprise. “Huh?” What she wanted to say was employee, and not ‘Boyfriend’. When did he become her boyfriend? Was he becoming delusional too? Here she was thinking he was only a maniac.

Jinhai sighed when she looked at him that way, “Your mother still thinks I’m your boyfriend, And here you are in a club about to on a date with a guy. Which I’m still yet to understand why a club. So for security sake, I’ll chaperone you to this date and see if this ‘date’, is a good person to leave you it. I’m sorry to do this Mr Eun-sun but I gave your mother my word to look after yourself” he told her.

“But that was a lie” She snapped. Their little relationship fascade was a lie, so why was he taking it serious? It wasn’t supposed to turn out this way, she cringed in her head.

“I know, but your mother doesn’t. So let’s go if you don’t want to keep your date waiting.” He said. This was going to be his excuse for protecting his love. He wasn’t going to lose her even before he tried. Without waiting for Hei-Ran to say anything he started to walk ahead.

Hei-Ran looked at his back in stupefaction. What was happening to her right now?

She snapped her to look at Eun-sun who was still standing a few feet away from where she was, playing with her phone. As if Eun-sun knew she was being looked at, she raised her gaze to look at Hei-Ran’s direction and their eyes met. She cocked her brows in a questioning manner when she observed how Hei-Ran was looking at her. Her eyes noticed Jinhai was slowly walking towards the club, it was obvious he was waiting for Hei-Ran to join him.

She moved closer to her and asked, “What’s happened? Did he say something?” her eyes were fixed on the man who had suddenly stopped to look at them. She glanced at Hei-Ran again.

“Eun-sun I want to quit my Job” She announced firmly. Eun-sun arched her brow at her. She wanted to quit her job? Why?

“Did he ask you to quit?” She asked again, her eyes already staring at Jinhai suspiciously. She knew how Hei-Ran loved her job at Jinhai’s company. Hei-Ran was about to reply her when Jinhai called out to them.

“Ms Su let’s go” Hei-Ran snapped her head towards Eun-sun and said, “I’m going to commit murder before I quit that job” She declared making Eun-sun chuckle amusedly.

She linked her hands with Eun-sun’s and started for the club. Eun-sun kept her gaze on her friend who was now had a grim look on her face and from the way her eyes were narrowed she could swear that she was definitely thinking up something crazy in her head.

Eun-sun reconfirmed her reason for hating clubs the moment they stepped in. Her eyes scanned through the whole room of a different species of people, some who looked and behaved lucid and others who were absolutely out of it. It was obvious they were under the influence of either alcohol and one of those hard substances that they always ingest into their systems. Very loud music was blasting through the speakers and bodies were dancing to the rhythm.

She turned to look at Hei-Ran who was glaring at her boss who was also looking at him.

“Please stop glaring and show the way to Ji-Sang’s party” Eun-sun told her pulling her from whatever thought she was having at the moment. Hei-Ran looked at Eun-sun and also glared at her. She was concerned about herself and not her, Hei-Ran accused her in her mind. She knew what she said wasn’t true but she was having a mood right now. She sighed and brought out her phone from her purse. She looked at the message which Ji-Sang had sent her earlier. She grudgingly passed the phone to Eun-sun, who in turn asked for directions from someone. They were directed to go to the next floor.

The duo were about to make their way to the second floor where the private rooms were, with the third wheel tailing behind of course, a frown settled on his face.

Hei-Ran really didn’t like the fact that the man was following them. So she tried to talk to him one more time. Maybe he’d listen to her now and just go away. Right he was being a nuisance and she didn’t like it.

“Mr Song I don’t think there’s any reason for you being here, as you can see my friend is here with me, and your presence would make uncomfortable. I can handle myself and there’s no need worrying about her mother, I’m capable of handling her too, so if you don’t mind I’ll take my leave” She said in the most polite tone she could muster but there was nothing polite within her.

Meanwhile at the VIP lounge not far from where they were standing, some group of girls were happily giggling and cheering at the arrival of tonight’s money bag.

“Ga-Yeon, is that really your brother’s card?” One of the girls asked in glee, while the others looked at the girl waiting for her answer. They all reacted happily when Ga-Yeon nodded her head happily.

“Wow what a generous guy. I think I love your brother” Another of the girl cooed, while the others laughed except Ga-Yeon, who was glaring at the girl.

“Just say you like my brother because he’s generous, mini gold digger” Ga-Yeon said with a mock-glare, while the girl smiled broadly, as she shamelessly nodded her head. iｎ????????????α????. ????????????

“She’s a proud and bonified gold digger, but who doesn’t like a man with money and of course one who is willing to spend it. I mean I’m also in love with your brother, we all are” Another of the girl said while the others nodded.

“Simply say he’s the nation’s husband, especially when he smiles so beautifully” The first girl said as she drooled, making Ga-Yeon shake her head at them.

“Unfortunately for all you, my mother says he’s likes someone already so you all have no chance with him” She announced as she took a sip from her glass, while surreptitiously watching their reaction from the side of glass. Her lips curved upward when she saw their surprised expression.

“He has?” They all chorused, and she nodded. Sincerely she wasn’t really sure of it, but she had heard her mom talking about it with her best friend. She also remembered her mom saying the girl might not like her brother, but they didn’t have to know that part. As much as she liked her friends she’d never let him date anyone of them...they were all crazy.

But thinking about the girl her brother likes, she suddenly began to wonder why anyone who wouldn’t like her brother? He is a caring and loving person, and a bit flirty too....in his own way of course.

Hmm...she wouldn’t mind seeing that mysterious girl, and maybe convince her into taking her brother. The hassle of finding him a girl who he wouldn’t like was going to be hectic, so why not go for the one he already like?

“Oh no! That’s bad. We just lost a good man” One of the girl’s purred, same as the others.

“Well you can enjoy his money” Ga-Yeon said as she waved the card at them.

“Hold on isn’t that your brother?”
