Wounded: The Ordeals Of Lee Eun ha

Eun Ha? " the manager called, " Please take a menu to that table and get their request." deep down she would have wanted someone else to do it but this was the boss orders, who was she to reject. she took the menu and walked straight to the table, her heart was racing very fast, she couldn't phantom exactly why. good evening Sir, she said bowing her head politely as she offered the menu what would you like to have? they looked at the menu and pointed what they wanted, she went out from the table and brought the cocktail they had ordered, she turned back to leave when the voice of one of them stopped her in her tracks. "wait" her heart stopped for some split seconds and continued beating with difficulty. I know you, you're Mr Lee's daughter he said with and an evil grin that revealed his tobacco colored teeth. she froze as the tray she was holding dropped to the ground. "I was right, it's them" The restaurant on the ground floor was filled with people mostly the elites, some of them were tourist, others were there for a business meeting and others, conferences. the sound of the dropped tray caught the attention of most of them, making them glance at Eun Ha for some split seconds. He continued, The deadline is tomorrow evening don't forget that. Eun Ha had wanted to say something to them, perhaps, beg them but the words never left her throat. Eun Ha stood there for about two minutes, "will you get us our meal or will you just stand there?" the other muttered harshly. she knew they were evil men, above the law. falling into their trap was the most dangerous place a person could be. she resigned to begging for more time. one glance, Mu Chen could tell what was happening "X force" he whispered underneath his breath. they had quite a reputation and were feared by many. They feared no one and could illegally obtain what was theirs if necessary. He looked at the helpless young lady on the floor, he knew there was no way they'd let her go, no matter how much she begged. he didn't know this girl, yet he felt a need to protect her. he went out and waited in his car in the parking area. "Wait," he said with a deep voice. Chae won was surprised he would have sworn a few minutes ago that he was in a hurry to leave. The loan sharks finished their meal as she handed them their bills, "How ironic, we're paying for your service and you owe us," he said humorously as they both burst into laughter. Eun Ha felt a knife pierce her heart, she had never felt so much humiliation in her life. she followed them outside the building trying to plead with them for the last time to see if they'd cave in and give her more time but they just walked straight to the car and drove off. Eun Ha stood outside the hotel, in despair, her father was going to die, this men were ruthless, the cloud had darkened earlier, soon few drops of rain started falling, but she was in no hurry to leave as if it were possible for the rain to wash down all her pain, she stood outside staring blankly into thin air while it rained on her, soon her hair was separating into clustered strands, tear a freely flowed down her cheeks, she felt like screaming, she felt helpless, Just then she couldn't feel the raindrops on her skin she turned as her eyes met with a tall handsome young man holding a big black umbrella. Mu Chen looked at her sorrowful eyes, he could see the pain in her soul through them. "I know who they were, and I can roughly guess what it is" Eun Ha was confused, "what did he know? who was he? why is he being kind to me?" she asked one question after another in her head. "How much?" he asked with a king like voice. "10,000 dollars," she said as her lips trembled, "How did you...?" this time she was starting to get suspicious. I have an offer for you, I'll clear the debt but you'll carry my baby"

Eun Ha

She walked briskly through the large double doors of Mayfield hotel, some of her colleagues were standing at the side of the hotel and it seemed like the manager was addressing them

"Who among y'all have an idea or a clue as to where the million dollar art piece" manager Sung screamed on top of his voice bringing some people to a halt as they watched the scene unravel.

Ma'am Wu who was in charge of all the hotel waitresses was equally there with her head bowed slightly, they all went mute, the hotel was usually cold because of the air conditioners at every corner of the place, but some of them were sweating, Bok Su was equally there, he had no idea on what happened to the piece or how it got MISSING.

Ma'am Wu finally spoke up all the hotel staffs aren't here sir, perhaps we could wait for them. She continued, "Eun Ha took and emergency leave from work 3 days ago and she is to resume today" She said with a devious smile, just then, Eun Ha arrived the scene, it was obvious that she was oblivious to whatever was going on.

"I could lose my Job" manager Sung screamed once again, he had a differing personality, sometimes he could be a sweet and nice but other times he was a pain in the ass and they all knew, this time around he didn't look like he would be opened to reason.

If by 12pm that piece isn't out you'll all be sacked, every staff that had access to that part of the hotel where the piece was placed in exhibition. Manager Sung was about to walk back to his office when ma'am Wu's suggestion brought him to a halt,

"We could search everyone's locker, perhaps the piece is still in the building since we found out on time"

That's not a bad idea, he called the head security personnel and ordered for a search while the staffs remained in their positions and weren't allowed near their lockers.

Eun Ha loomed at ma'am Wu, there was something off about her

"What was she up to this time?" she asked she knew this meant trouble, but how the trouble was going to affect her was what she didn't know, she hadn't been to work in 3 days and what is more she hadn't been in contact with that piece, she knew nothing about it.

Ma'am Wu smirked at her and came close and whispered in her ears

"You look tired wench, you should perhaps go home and rest"

Eun Ha didn't blurt out a word, she was used to her taunts, but this time was a little different but what did she know at the time.

After an hour passed she decided to use the restroom, she wasn't feeling quite comfortable, perhaps it was the pregnancy, she entered the toilet and sat on the toilet seat, while she urinated she tried to place her hands around everything at work, it was a really wrong way to start the day, she just arrived and hadn't even had time to visit her Locker to change, she was eventually going to leave her work place but not now, she needed to get a a more suitable and stable job first, after expending about 5 minutes there she came out of the toilet and washed her hands in the sink while she looked at herself in the mirror that was hanging slightly above the sink. She was looking more beautiful, being pregnant definitely looked good on her, she would have been happier if it was under different circumstances. But here she was carrying the child of a stranger and living a miserable life.

She made her way through the hallway down to the reception, she heard people whispering and making snide remarks, one waitress went out of her way to hit her before she could protest she called out "theif"

"Theif?" she asked in disbelief

"was she referring to me?"

"Hyahhh" she called out in anger but the waitress was already far gone

She felt uncomfortable at some point it was like she had something on her that was making people whisper, they treated her like she had done an abominable act, she decided to ignore as she made her way to the staff station.

Bok Su approached her slowly he was the only friend she had at work

"Eun Ha why did you do it?"

"Why did I do what? What exactly are you talking about?" she asked with furrowed brows

Now everyone was starting to get on her nerves, she felt she might explode any moment from now.

Bok Su knew Eun Ha was innocent he just wanted her facial expression to confirm his suspicions, this was a clear set up

"Eun Ha, you've been set up"
