"Miss, that's a beautiful song you're humming." The driver spoke up after hearing the woman sing to herself.

Luisa blushed. "Thank you," she said, taking off her headphones.

The man politely nodded and eyed Luisa's appearance. She was a little bit skinny and wearing simple clothes, but even with such poor attire she still looked pretty. He heard her speaking to the phone and guessed from her accent, her poise and the way she speak that she was probably once a wealth young lady, so why she became so poor now??

But because he did not want to offend her and receive a lower tip, he became quiet and focused more on driving.

After a few minutes of silence, he spoke up. "Ma'am, we've arrived at your destination."

Luisa looked out of the window where New York Hospital stood proud and tall. There was a path leading up to the front entrance, with a fountain in the front.

"Thank you." She smiled and handed him her fare. Luisa closed the door, walked into the hospital, and toward the reception desk.

"Hi, what floor is the VVIP room located in?" She asked one of the nurses, who exchanged glances with her coworker.

Seeing their skeptical looks, Luisa smiled. "Oh, don't worry. I'm a friend of the patient's sister," she reassured.

The nurse eyed Luisa's attire, and raised her brow, with suspicion. The patient in the VVIP room was someone from an extremely wealthy background, and this woman seemed to come from a poor background

So the nurse replied, "I cannot disclose the room number without proof of identification, but the VVIP rooms are located on the 11th floor." She knew each of the VVIP rooms was heavily guarded and figured if Luisa was a fake, she would never be able to enter the room anyway.

"Okay, thank you." Luisa didn't have any proof of identification, and she knew she looked someone who can't afford the VVIP room but she was still thankful that the nurse didn’t snob her. So she took the nurse's small piece of advice and walked into the elevator.

When it reached the 11th floor, Luisa walked out, down the clean and polished elevator hallways. She turned the hallway to see a few patients and figured she wasn't that far from the VVIP room.

True to her belief, as she turned down another hallway, there were four VVIP rooms. But from where she stood, she could only see two rooms and one of them had a group of bodyguard standing in front of it.

She smiled. This should be the room where Dina's brother residing.

Luisa walked up to the men and noticed how suspicious they were of her. They stood like soldiers with their head raised, arms to the side; in clearly protective stances. But something was off about them. Where had she seen those badges on their breast-pocket before?

She heard a low murmur from the room and instinctively realized it was a pair of male and female voices. Guessing it might've been Dina and her brother, Luisa  said, "Excuse me, I'm here to visit Dina Choi?"

Neither of the men budged.

Because their shoulders were wide and the men were incredibly tall, Luisa couldn't see the door's sign, so she couldn't see the room number. Then again, who else would be in a VVIP ward with so many bodyguards?

Obviously, it would be Choi Enterprise's highest shareholder, the CEO himself.

When the men didn't move, Luisa figured it was because they wanted some sort of proof. "Uhm, I don't have any written proof of my relationship with Dina Choi, but I do have pictures taken of me and her together—"
