"What's up, Se Naa? Tell me!" eryn Pinta.
The sound of the phone shakes stopped. Se Naa looked back at Eryn.
"Please tell me what's going on, Se Naa? Please!" Eryn's eyes were crying for Se Naa to tell the truth.
The sound of mobile phone vibration again. Se Naa shook her head slowly.
"You rest first. I'll pick up this call!"
Se Naa immediately exited the guest room leaving Eryn with a million questions.
"What's the matter exactly?" eryn muttered then rested his body that felt tired. He closed his eyes hoping that tomorrow would be better.
On Se Naa's side, he raised the call with his angry reception.
"Where have you been? I called you from yesterday but you're not on your phone" Se Naa said.
"sorry. I have to take care of something. What's up?"
"My brother tried to eliminate Eryn. But, you take it easy. I've taken her to my apartment. El, you better show yourself in front of Eryn. I feel sorry to see it. He looks very fragile. Maybe after finding out if you're alive then..."
"Thank you for taking care of Eryn. Not yet, Se Naa. I'm asking you to look after it for me."
Se Naa sighed harshly. "What else are you waiting for?"
"Time. If the time has come, then Eryn will know if I'm still alive."
"Well, if that's what you want."
Call ended. Se Naa returned to the guest room and saw that Eryn had fallen asleep.
"Why is your story and Eldric so twisted, Eryn? May you live all this." Se Naa closed the door and went into her own room.

The next day, Se Naa escorted Eryn home to the Kim family. There were no meaningful conversations during the trip to Eryn's house.
Se Naa decides to go down first and meets Mr. Kim, Eryn's father. Se Naa guessed that Mr. Kim would be angry with her.
"You! How dare you set foot here?" amuk Mr. Kim.
"Dad, don't be mad at Se Naa. He helped me."
"What's your neck, son? Who did this?" asked Mr. Kim to look at the red marks on his daughter's neck.
"That was my brother. Lucky I quickly came and saved your daughter," Se Naa said.
"You and your brother are both insane!" Mr. Kim held his chest.
"Dad! Don't blame Se Naa" said Eryn gently.
"I'm here to apologize on behalf of my brother. I know this may not change things, but I promise I won't let my brother touch Eryn again. You can hold my word. Then, excuse me." Se Naa saluted then walked out of the Kim family home.
After Se Naa died, Mr. Kim looked at Eryn. "Are you all right, son?"
Eryn nodded. "Yes, Dad. Let me take you to the room."
Eryn rubbed his father's weak body to rest. Lately Mr. Kim's condition is declining. In addition to age, also due to the pressure of work that is quite heavy in his old age.
Eryn poured his father's body carefully into the bed.
"Mommy! Mommy's home yet?" Noah runs to embrace Eryn.
"Yes, honey. You're home from school?" eryn asked by summarizing Noah's adorable face.
"Already, Mommy. Grandpa why Mommy? Is Grandpa sick?"
"Grandfather is okay, hotshot," said Mr. Kim.
"Darling, you play with Ji Hyo first. Mommy wants to talk to Grandpa."
"Yes, Mommy." Noah ran over and out of Mr. Kim's room.
Eryn, who was sitting on the edge of the bed, now clasped Mr. Kim's hand.
"Dad... I'm sorry.." said Eryn regretfully.
Mr. Kim smiled.
"I doubted my father all along. Now I know that you're innocent."
Mr. Kim nodded. Eryn hugged his old father's body.
"It's just you and Noah that I have in this world. I'm not gonna let you get hurt, son. Immediately carry out your engagement. I want someone to take care of you and Noah."
Eryn jerks. I don't know why he wanted to refuse his father's request. But all can't. Everything can no longer be repeated.
"Alright, Dad. If that's what Dad wants, then I'll do it."
"Thank you, my daughter."
Eryn stared far away imagining what else would happen to him after this.

After the incident that night, Se Hoon seemed to disappear like swallowed by the earth. Even Se Naa could not figure out where her brother was.
"Where is he? He is the smartest to hide. Goddamnit!" se Naa's.
"You take it easy, I can definitely find it" said someone.
Se Naa nodded. Now he has to take care of the company and all the problems caused by his brother.
In a different place, Se Hoon was stalking all the gestures of his enemies.
"Now the time has come. I'm not going to let go of what should be mine" he muttered with a creepy grin.
Se Hoon settles outside the building where Eryn and Joon's engagement party will be held.
On the other hand, Se Naa came to Seo Ga Eun to ask her brother whereabouts. Se Naa knew for sure that the girl was helping her brother to hide.
"I don't know where your brother is!" seo Ga Eun is not trusted by Se Naa.
"I'm sure you've planned all this. You won't be able to run if you're proven guilty. You must want to ruin Eryn and Kang Joon's engagement party."
"You know what to ask yourself. You should be able to better watch your brother's movements. You're here, and it's possible that your brother is even around that j4lang woman!"
Se Naa clenched her hands. With emotions still stirring, Se Naa came out of the Seo family home. He immediately contacted El-Black.

Eryn looked at his appearance in front of the mirror. She was wearing a beautiful evening dress. A festive engagement party is being held in the hotel's ballroom.
For the umpteenth time, Eryn tried to convince himself that this was the best. He did all this for Noah and his father.
The door of his room was knocked, the figure of the father and his son appeared in a suit that made the little man look more handsome.
"Mommy!" noah hugged Eryn.
"Darling... You're so handsome." Eryn kissed Noah's entire face.
"Mommy, ticklish!" Noah chuckles.
Eryn looked at his father. The middle-aged man also looked handsome in his suit and bow tie.
"Dad..."
"My daughter... I may not have seen you get married. But this time, I want to see you living happily with Kang Joon and Noah."
Eryn nodded.
"The show is starting soon. You prepare!"
"Yes, Dad."
"Noah, let's go out. Let your Mommy get ready."
Mr. Kim took Noah by the hand and walked out of Eryn's room. Now the beautiful woman herself was in the room. He's setting his breath.
A lot of things happened to his life these few years. His desire to live happily seems far from reality.
Eryn wiped away the tears that suddenly soaked her cheeks.
"Don't be sad, Eryn. After this you will definitely feel happiness."
The phone looks on. No vibrating or ringing sounds. Eryn grabbed his phone.
"Overse number?" Eryn rounded his eyes.
"Don't..." Eryn picked it up immediately.
"Hello..."
"Eryn's? You're that?"
"Rose? Is this really you, Rose?" Eryn closed his mouth in disbelief.
"Yes, this is me Rose. Thank goodness I can hear your voice. Eryn, there's something I want to tell you."
"What is Rose? Is this about Eldric?"
"Yes, you know, my brother's not dead yet."
Eryn was stunned to hear from Rose. Her tears instantly escaped to her smooth cheeks.
"I know, Rose. I know that Eldric must not have died."
"Sir is there. He wants to see you."
"really? Thank you, Rose. Thank you for letting me know at the right time."
"Together, Eryn. Hope you meet brother soon."
"Yes." Yeah."
The call ended coinciding with a knock on Eryn's bedroom door. The woman was very happy and hoped that the one who came was Eldric.
Eryn stepped up with a smile engraved wide on his face. Slowly he opened the door and saw a black-clothed figure standing there.
"Eldric?"
