BATTLE OF THE RICHES 3 | PENTHOUSE |

years have pasted

3 years later.

Me and Junghwan didn't get the chance to leave the country we had to settle things down and help everyone back to their feet.

I became chairwomen of the hospitals I owned and a classical singer. Rona became a successful classic singer. Seok-kyung has a singing business so she helps people get their singing better.

Minhyeok got back from the military, Eunbyeol works at a church and Seok-hoon and Jenny I don't know what they been up too I'm been too busy to talk to my friends and family.

Junghwan is a professional basketball player.

Me and Junghwan live in Mrs Kang penthouse since she offered us to live there.

But Logan Lee died from cancer recently he stopped taking treatment. I think it's because he wants to be with Ms Shim.

Today I went to visit Seok-kyung during work. "The higher the notes get the lower the breathing" I lean on the door frame as I listen to her lecture.

Then Seok-kyung shows them up one of her students bugs. "You're just a baby teacher, you don't need to try so hard. Just pass the time and leave" I sigh and walk over to them.

"And if she gets fired? Will you take responsibility?" I asked. "For me to pay next months rent plus tuition I can't get fired" Seok-kyung added smiling at me.

"So j have to work hard" I smile back at her calm answer. The students were a bit shocked that I showed up. "I heard you're the daughter of that terrorist Joo Dan Tae"

Seok-kyung sighed and smiled and put her hand on her shoulder "I don't know how you duh into my past but your parents let me teach you even with all that knowledge, you both won your first music competition after getting lessons from me. Then I was worth your money, no?" Then Seok-kyung smiled again.

"Let's get another trophy in this competition okay?" She said they both nodded "you're good to go" she said to the girls.

They walk past me and I smile at them. "Ah Seok-kyung you handled that very well" I smiled. "Of course I learned my lesson" she said "let's go out and eat later with Seok-hoon?" She asked.

"Sure, why not we haven't for a while now"

...

I went to the restaurant and see Seok-hoon he was listening to music, I pulled the ear bud off "what are you listening to?" And I put it in my ear.

"Junghwa" he stood up "I love this song too" I said. Then I gave it back.

"Where's Seok-kyung?" I asked sitting down Infront of him "she canceled and she said she couldn't come." He said and j replied with an 'o'.

"You've been busy right?" He asked "yeah" I quietly said.  "So how was the hospital and being a classical singer at the same time?" He questioned.

"It's been stressful, I haven't got the chance to go out like this in a while" I smiled a bit. "It feels nice"

He chuckled a bit. Then the waiter came "here's your menu" he said hanging us the menu's.

"What should we get?" He asked "pasta" I said and he smiled. "What kind of pasta do you want? Should I recommend something?" The waiter asked.

"Rosa pasta is our signature dish" then Seok-hoon looked at me "sure" I smiled. "Well have two of that" Seok-hoon added.

"Ms Ha it's an honor to meet you" the waiter said bowing a bit. "I'm a huge fan, could I get an autograph?" He asked. I nodded and grabbed the pen and pencil.

"My name is Lee byung Yoon" he said I sighed on the paper "I'm joining the military next week, this will really cheer me up.

The autograph ended with a heart "thank you and good luck" I smiled. "It's an honor she bowed once again and left.

The pasta came shortly after. "Are you sure you're not straining yourself?" Seok-hoon asked. "Why do you keep such a busy schedule, how many recitals have you done and how much patience have you helped this year only?"

I chuckled "I like singing and helping others, it takes my mind off things" answered. "Are you going to stay in Italy?" He asked, i froze a bit he wasn't supposed to know.

I hesitant to answer "yes, but about you are you going to stay in Austria?" I asked. He nodded "probably"

"I have many concerts coming up"

"How did you know I was going to Italy?" I asked. "Your brother told me, he also told me you might not come back" he quietly said.

I sighed "he's right" it was silent for a moment. "I'll miss you" he said.

"Me too, but I think it would be best if I don't stay her for long many bad things/memories are here"

I saw he had a box in his pocket, but when I said that he put the box away, he stood up and kissed me.

...

Rona invited me and my brother for her Seoul concert and of course I went it's been a long time since I saw her.

On our way back stage to go to Rona we meet Jenny and her mom and i greet them and they greet me back.

"Rona" Jenny and I said cheerfully. She came to hug us both and Junghwan gave her the flowers. "Look at you, your so beautiful" I said.

"My best friend came back as a superstar after three years, the next Jo Su Mi the genius prima Donna the media is going crazy" Jenny said.

"I feel distant" she admitted. "Your being silly, I hear both of you will be going to Italy soon" Rona said. "Yes" I smiled. "Of course she wants to be where you are" Ms Kang said for Jenny.

"Please keep a close eye on her" Ms Kang said to me and Rona. "Don't worry we'll make sure she works hard" I tease. Then Ms Kang hugged her.

"Don't book hotel rooms and stay with us" she advise. "We recently moved to the penthouse of Simoon palace, it's still a little messy but the view is amazing"

Then Seok-hoon came out from behind everyone's gasp "oh my look who's here Seok-hoon is that you?" Ms Kang was surprised.

"My gosh look how dashing you've become" Ms Kang complement. "You two make a cute couple" Ms Kang said.

It hurt me a little bit Seok-hoon is probably going to confess to her soon and I won't get in the way.

"It's your first time performing together isn't it?" Ms Kang asked. "I begged her like crazy she kept refusing" he joked.

"I wish your mom could've been this " Ms Kang said tearing up a bit. "See you after the performance, break a leg" Junghwan said and we all left.
