The Heirs (Unedited)

Chapter 4

------
*Eun Sang's POV*
A pounding headache woke me up, not to mention the sunlight that was shining against me which magnified the pain.

I gripped onto my head, sitting up slowly.

Where am I?

I observed my surroundings through my blurred vision from waking up. In a panic, I looked down at my clothes when I realised I was in a hotel room. My handbag was sitting on the rest chair next to the bed while my blouse and skirt were hanging in the closet with a laundry shop bag over it. Next to it was a dark dress, whose is that?

I got up from the bed immediately.

The tips of my fingers tugged on the shirt and pyjamas pants I was wearing, definitely not what I wore to work yesterday.

What exactly happened yesterday night? Why am I here? Where is this place?

Someone knocked on the door before entering.

"You're awake, Agassi." A lady greeted, "We've prepared breakfast in the dining room, please come down after you've washed up."

I stopped her before she left, "Where am I? What happened last night?"

She smiled gently, "You're in Zeus Hotel, you were drunk when Mr Choi brought you back."

"T-then who changed me?"

"I was the one who helped change your clothes, we were told to prepare another set of clean clothes for you to change into." She gestured to the clean dress next to my clothing.

Mr Choi? Zeus Hotel?

It must be Choi Young Do.

I nodded stupidly as I took in things that've happened.

"If there's nothing else, I'll take my leave." She said and exited the room.

Choi Young Do brought me back?

The images of what happened last night flashed through my head. Kim Tan and the other girl, me dragging Young Do towards a snack bar after crying, my drunk mess that happened in public.

I covered my face in embarrassment, "Ah... Jinjja."

I tiptoed down the stairs, trying to see if there was anyone.

I let out a small breath of relief when I saw that the coast was clear.

"What are you doing?"

I jumped from Young Do's voice once again, silently cursing at myself for doing so.

"You, Cha Eun Sang." He pointed, "Do you know what kind of trouble you gave me last night? My suit has been ruined thanks to you."

My eyes landed on the floor out of embarrassment.

"I'll pay for it, send me the bill. I'll be leaving now-"

"Sit down, breakfast has been prepared." He interrupted. The smell of bacon and eggs wafted in the air.

"I'm not hungry-" I was cut off when my stomach growled at the sight of food.

Young Do chuckled, "Eat up."

I shook my head, "I should get going now. I didn't return home for the entire night."

He pushed me towards the chair and sat me down forcefully, "Just eat if I tell you too."

We ate the first meal of the day in silence while I kept my eyes on the plate the entire time, not willingly to create any form of conversation.

My head tilted up when I felt a pair of eyes on me.

Young Do sighed abruptly, "Are you going to ask Kim Tan about yesterday night?"

The fork I was bringing towards my lips halted immediately.

"I'm late for work, I should really leave now." I stood up from the chair, grabbing for my handbag.

"You're still the same after eight years, Cha Eun Sang." He said out of the blue.

I frowned, "What?"

"Avoiding problems you can't face?"

I kept quiet.

"They're not going to go away just because you run away from them. Kim Tan's not going to feel bad suddenly and return to you. How long do you think this has been going on for gods' sake?"

I clenched my fists, shutting my eyes when I knew what he said was right. But I didn't want to admit it.

I didn't want to admit whatever I saw yesterday night was true. It couldn't be him. It could've been someone who resembled Kim Tan.

It wasn't until I saw the dark wet stains on the carpet I was standing on that I realised I was crying.

"I don't know about you. But the other night I saw what you seen yesterday night-"

"Enough." I tried to say loudly but my voice came out soft. I walked towards the door, leaving his place quickly.

The moment I got into the elevator, I broke down.

What has ever happened to us?
