Hyomi stayed overnight with Naomi. They enjoyed a night on Jeju Island alone before returning to Seoul. They just relaxed in the villa while enjoying the fresh air. There was nothing else.

But in the middle of the night, the bell rang. It made the two women stand guard behind the intercom to see who it was. Worried that the terrorist figure will reveal his existence while they are only alone.

Hyomi widened her eyes. "It's Mira!"

"Mira?"

The two women opened the gate for her together. The woman with beautiful clear eyes looked withered after a long examination as a witness. She stared at Hyomi with her eyelids drooping as Naomi closed the gate.

"You still don't believe me, Hyomi?" asked Mira still hoping for a glimmer of hope.

Hyomi moistened her lower lip for a moment. "I already told you that I want to trust the law. After all, you're just a witness to why I should have expectations."

"But you don't know how broken I am. Even though I'm just a witness, I feel depressed if I lose the

I want the one...""For couples or family?"From behind her black mask, Jun's cheeks were rosy. "For my beloved.""This way, sir." The female clerk led Jun to another display case. "Here we have a variety of diamond necklaces with the latest models and sweet designs, perfect for a wife or girlfriend."Jun nodded his understanding but he still couldn't choose the best one. Jun tried his best to choose since it was for Hyomi."How about that pink butterfly?" Jun confirmed."Wow! You have good taste, sir!"

    Ding dong!The loving kiss in the middle of the relaxing afternoon was suddenly interrupted when a bell rang loudly. Both of them suddenly panicked."Who is it?"Hyomi got up, followed by Jun looking both curious and worried. They watched from the intercom screen."Huh?!" Hyomi widened her eyes."Who? Who is that woman?" Jun confirmed."She's my friend." Then the bell rang again, sending both couples into a panic, and Hyomi pushed Jun's body into her room as he complied and had no choice."Get in!" Jun widened his eyes as Hyomi opened the closet. "I went into that closet?"Hyomi pushed all of her hanging clothes out of the way to make room for Jun to hide. "Hurry! We don't have time, honey!"In a state of panic, Jun couldn't protest either. He struggled to fit into the closet that was even shorter than him."Watch your feet!" Hyomi exclaimed as she was about to close."Patience! You have no idea how big my body is!"Hyomi didn't care about Jun's babble. She was already in a panic an

    While Eunbi was paying at the cash register, Hyomi pulled over to call Jun. She wanted to see how her boyfriend was doing."Hm. Jun? Are you home?" she asked for confirmation."I am, sweetheart. Don't worry."Hearing that answer made Hyomi feel relieved. It was as if she had just gotten off an adrenaline rush. What a thrill."Thank goodness. I'm sorry.""Why are you apologizing? I should have done it.""No. I was wrong. I should have kept anyone from coming when you wanted to come. I also didn't expect Eunbi to come today," Hyomi explained feeling bad. "Not really. That means your friend cares about you. It's my fault because I'm an idol.""What do you mean? Isn't this part of the risk we have to handle together? Then why blame your career, dear?"Every time Hyomi called Jun sweetly, let alone affectionately, it made him melt. Her white cheeks became rosy.Hyomi frowned when there was no response from the other side. "Honey?""Ah! Yes.""Something wrong?""No. I just get misbehaved e

A text message came in. Jun quickly checked it and was wide-eyed to find that some parts of his memory had been lost due to his busy schedule.From: +01xxxSorry, I called your number after stealing it from Hyomi's phone. You promised to go to the hackers, right? It's not for me but for the good of Hyomi, your girlfriend.Jun closed her eyes fretfully, then rubbed her face roughly. His mind suddenly became more chaotic and disordered when it came to his girlfriend, especially when the message came when he was busy working.But he tried to restrain himself and keep up the good work. In the turmoil of her heart, Jun wanted to do a vocal take immediately and finish the recording in one take. All for the sake of speeding up his other business."Wow! Jun, you're so good!

    The atmosphere of the boarding unit was dimly lit, and the room was messy. Fortunately, it still smelled good, so it wasn't too bad. Even Jun was still casting his eyes around the room as the masked Mr. Darker worked on something."What are you looking at, Mr. Park?""Oh?!" startled Jun as he realized his movements were being noticed by Mr. Darker who seemed very focused on his work."N-No! There's nothing," Jun shrugged."Sit down, do you have a boil?"Jun widened his eyes at the curly-haired hacker's jibe. But he restrained himself and quickly sat down on the chair that had been provided."Excuse me," Jun began. "Why don't you renovate this house?" He looked at the roof, which was leaking."I'll keep it like this. By living like this, I'm not under much suspicion." Then he widened his eyes, startling Jun. "Why would I talk to you about something like this?""I don't know." Jun was confused."You don't need to say much. Shut up and wait!" Mr. Darker put a finger to his mouth like he

    "I heard you wanted to see me," Mr. Producer said as he took off his blazer and hung it on the pole."Yes, sir.""What's wrong? Are you better?" "Yes. I'm much better than before." Hyomi reported on her health so far. "Then how is the perpetrator doing?"The producer blew out his breath roughly. "Still no sign." "Is it that neat?" Hyomi searched for other possibilities."I don't know. I've been following the progress." Mr. Producer shared his text message with the Jeju police. "They said it's not Mira either. Mira was in Seoul when the incident happened. That's proven.""Should we question her?""Go ahead.""But why did you fire her if it wasn't her?"Mr. Producer tried to find the right sentence. "Mira is not the culprit. But Mira is the perpetrator of this riot. We should have stayed calm and followed police procedures, but you know? She came with a lot of noise.""But I didn't witness it firsthand.""Ah, right!" Mr. Producer snapped his fingers. "What's clear is that we also have

    On the way back home, Hyomi seemed to be more silent while thinking about all of Mira's words that were still firmly suspecting Eunbi.For Hyomi, she didn't suspect her friend at all because she looked relaxed as usual, nothing suspicious at all, even though Hyomi was so vigilant when Eunbi stayed at her house. Eunbi was as attentive as ever."Now I understand that you do need to be careful. Don't trust anyone, including those closest to you. Me, Eunbi, Hyuk, Jun, and even that Kai or your Jong."Mira's words lingered in the memory. She was in seclusion while reflecting on herself. Again, such a perpetrator could still stalk Hyomi at any time."Are you okay?" asked Hyuk to make sure while keeping his focus on driving."Yes. I'm fine.""I feel your change, Hyomi."Hyomi widened her eyes. "My change?""Since the Jeju incident a while ago, you've become more quiet and seem weak."Hyomi pondered. She reviewed the changes that had happened to her. Without realizing it, it was all true. Hyo

The two had just come out of the emergency room to treat the wound on Hyomi's right palm."It's nothing," Hyomi said soothingly."What's wrong?! Huh?!" Mira looked down at Hyomi's bandaged hand.

I heard Hyomi packing, so I went there and that bitch was there too. How could I hold back?"Mira massaged her throbbing forehead. "I know. If I were in your shoes, I'd be even crazier than that.""It's okay. I also have to make sacrifices for those of you who are on my side," Hyomi added, stepping first into the hospital lobby."Sacrifice or are you just stupid?" Mira confirmed.
