Eleventh Chapter
The roadways didn't seem to end no matter how fast the car's speed and the man's pace was. It would be a dream come true if flashing power or an anywhere door were real at that moment. Or anything that could get the young man to his destination in a blink of an eye because, “Fuck! The fucking road is just endless I swear to my senses that I would hit every single thing that would come in my way.”
Just right then, a thing did come on his way which was the ringing of his cellphone and somehow he didn't lie about hitting when he hit the pickup button.
“Haechan, where are you? I've been calling you for an hour and even your dad tried to call you and pinged as well. Where are you so busy mister? Did you reach there already? Did the driver come to pick you? You didn't forget anything in the plane right?”
“Mum… I told you that I'm gonna be struck as our uni dropped surprise assessment and that's what I was busy with. Yes, I reached here and yes the driver did come but I got to know that his wife suddenly got into labor so I insisted him to leave.”
“What? Suddenly? She wasn't even pregnant? Are you sure? Which driver was it? He left you alone?”
“Yes Mum. It happened suddenly and it is normal. It's in science. He's good, I'm good, I know how
to drive and I'm driving right now so I'll call you later. Love you, see you, bye.” And with that, he disconnected the line though his mother was still ranting on the other side about the lamest and unrealistic excuse he had given.
But he couldn't still be blamed. His mind was blowing and his entire body was malfunctioning. It was even a miracle that he could still come up with words to paste to his mother otherwise he just got blank usually whenever his mother decided to rant on him.
“Come on fucking hell of a junk!” Donghyuck cursed and kicked the paddle harshly, trying to cross the pace limit probably.
After a few more turns, twists and hyperventilation, the sun kissed man finally reached his destination. He didn't waste another moment and rushed out of the driver seat, not even bothering to lock the car as he exited the vehicle and left the vehicle behind.
“Excuse me, Sir. May I see your identity proof please?”
“Yeah, sure.” Donghyuck said as he handed his ID card to the guard. “Ahh… May I know where I can get the update on the admittees. My ally is admitted here and I'm here to check on them.”
The guard handed the card to Donghyuck back and answered him. “Near the reception there will be a counter. You can get updates from there but u doubt if they would as you mentioned be an ally and not a family member.”
“No worries. Thank you very much.” Donghyuck thanked the latter and went inside the hospital's lobby, searching for the informant's counter. It didn't take him too long to spot that.
“Excuse me Miss. I'm Lee Donghyuck and I'm here to see… Kim Taeil. May I have an update on him?”
The woman nodded and checked something on the system before responding, “I'm sorry Sir. Your name isn't mentioned in his family members nor allies. The man who had got him here only provides his family's info.”
Donghyuck frowned as he asked, “Which man? Can I get his name?”
“No Sir. This is against our policies.”
Donghyuck rolled his eyes and reached for his pockets searching for something inside.
“Are you sure?” He asked while sliding a golden gift card on the counter towards the woman, who gulped lightly but snatched the object in an instant.
“Mark Lee was the name as I remember. I didn't save it on the system. As for Mr. Taeil, he's been discharged already and his parents took him home. That's all we know.”
“W-what name did you say?”
“Mark, Sir. Now please leave. I may get fired for this and this is the only job I have.”
Enrages would be an understatement to describe Donghyuck's furiousness. He was feeling as if someone set him on fire and which didn't seem to kill his body but just ultimately burnt his soul.
He was that furious that he would knock down everything and everyone around him especially that gluttonous woman in front of him. But he knew that neither he had much energy nor he had time.
So he just straight exited the hospital and started heading to his next spot.

Donghyuck didn't stop on his track as he made his way into the huge building. A few guards came into his way whom he instantly knocked and kept his harsh footsteps walking further and further.
He soon reached the hallway door and roughly smacked that open, breaking the doorknob down. He immediately spotted the fine petite man sitting straight in front of his direction. A watermelon shake into his hand and a smug smile on his face. Donghyuck felt his blood becoming lava inside.
“Missed me Hyuckie?”
He didn't bother using his tongue. Instead, he started rushing towards the latter in rage but got stopped on his track when he felt two strong and large pairs of hands grabbing him forcefully. He looked at the two buff guards and then again towards the man's direction who was now walking towards him while smirking devilishly. He fucking planned it!
“How did you like my surprise?”
“You are a fucking filthy bastard! You're such a disgrace to this world, Mark. Why are you being such a coward? Having me held by these guttery bugs of yours!”
The elder man chuckled at the latter's comment and replied, “This is not called coward, Hyuck. This is called clever. Which I am. Unlike your foolish dirty little lover. Just look by yourself. Just for a few days, you were away. And things went this way.”
Donghyuck felt so his bones and senses going crazy in anger and he tried pushing and smacking the men away and strangle Mark to death right there. Which he couldn't do as the giant bodyguards just tightened their grip on him.
“You! You made things this way! You are the reason my child is not in this world anymore. You fucking killed an innocent for your filthy obsession and third class pride. You're a fucking killer! A sick, psycho criminal. You deserve to be hanged and then rot in hell forever. You should have been arrested red handed in front of everyone! I don't even understand why that foolish bastard is even protecting a horrible monster like you!”
Mark might have rolled his eyes or laughed Donghyuck's rage again but the last lines of his statement caught him. Caught him in a way that he didn't even realize as to when his expression from breezy and mocky became serious and somewhat fondly curious.
“Who?” Mark asked curiously, his voice sounded filled with desire.
Donghyuck's mind was too wrapped under extreme anger that he didn't bother acknowledging any other thing than to hurt the elder in any way he could.
So instead of uttering any words, he spat straight on Mark's face making the latter upheaval on his spot and losing his clear view.
The sight soothed a little percentage of rage but it didn't last long when one of the guards punched his face for doing dirty their junior master.
A maid rushed to Mark handing him a mink towel. The latter wiped the saliva from his face and collar and looked at the younger offensively. Seeing the latter troubled satisfied Donghyuck and it was his turn to smile smugly.
“You already know what I did. And how worse I can do. Don't you, Donghyuck?”
Donghyuck chuckled mockingly. “Do you think your bitchiness is stronger than my love for Taeil?
You sickening cunt!”
Another smack was landed on Donghyuck's face then Mark motioned his men to stop constantly punching him and to release him.
Donghyuck fell on the ground when the buff men unheld him and stood by Mark's side, shielding him from Donghyuck's possible attack.
“One week. You have got one week of time to think one last time to get to me and save your hell of a lover. I have had enough and this time there will be nothing even left to fix. So think and do your thing wisely, Lee Donghyuck.” The elder warned in a screeching tone and signaled his guards to kick Donghyuck out of his house.
It was obvious that Mark got so offended and furious at Donghyuck's act that day when he used to gladly accept them before. Or maybe just sickeningly but at least he did.
But this day, he felt so enraged when the younger mocked him, insulted him and didn't tell him who was protecting him. Even though he already knew the answer, he still wanted to hear the name properly.
He wanted to get lost in thoughts with the name and the person to whom that belonged. Even though he was in love with Donghyuck.
