"Seok Kyung, why did you do that?" Su Ryeon said entering the room of Joo Seok Kyung.
"Do what?" Seok Kyung said as she plays her keyring with her hands.
"You put that in Ms. Lee's bag."
"What are you talking about?" Seok Kyung said as she suddenly stood and tried to leave but Shim Su Ryeon stopped her by holding her arm.
"Seok Kyung. I want to know why you did it. Is this really the best you can do? I never took you as someone who would hurt others."
"So what? What do you want me to do?" Seok Kyung said while taking off her arm.
"I want you to apologize to Ms. Lee. I'll drag you to her if I need to."
"No! Who are you to tell me what to do?" Seok Kyung said while taking off her arm again because Shim Su Ryeon held it again.
"How dare you talk to me that way! I'm your mom!"
"'Mom?' You're not even my real mom."
"Seok Kyung, what in the world..."
"Did you think I'd never find out...that you're not my real mom? Seok Hoon and I were given birth by someone else!"
"Seok Kyung. I don't know who told you what, but I'm your mother. I may not have given birth to you, but I raised you since you were a baby. And I loved you like my own. I truly cared about you."
"You truly cared? My elementary school graduation ceremony. All my concerts. And even last year's birthday. You were never there when I needed you! And I bet it was all because of her. Your daughter who's lying sick at the hospital." Seok Kyung said crying while taking off her arm again held by Shim Su Ryeon.
"How did you know that?" Su Ryeon said crying while covering her mouth.
"Do you have any idea how much I liked you. You deceived me. You abandoned me...for your biological daughter!" Seok Kyung said screaming in tears and Shim Su Ryeon hugged her.
"No, that's not true. I never abandoned you. I love you so much. I never once thought of you as someone else's daughter. I really meant it, Seok Kyung." Su Ryeon said facing and holding Joo Seok Kyung then Joo Seok Hoon entered the room.
"Don't ever act like you're my mom again. It's disgusting, and it makes me want to puke." Seok Kyung said as she pushed Shim Su Ryeon to the couch and left while staring Joo Seok Hoon in a good way.
"Seok Hoon. Let me explain." Su Ryeon said running to hold Joo Seok Hoon's arm.
"From now on, don't interfere in our lives." Seok Hoon said while taking off his arm and left while Shim Su Ryeon silently cried covering her mouth.
