They were all stunned as the little boy hugs Dahyun.

"Mommy" The little boy said again.

Dahyun gently pushed the kid, "Kid, you must be mistaken. I'm not your mommy" she reluctantly said.

"But my mama, said that you were my other mommy. Don't you remember her?" The little boy pouted.

Dahyun was again speechless and turned paler than ever. But that stopped when they heard Jeongyeon laughed really hard as she walks towards them and gave 500 won to the kid.

"Here you go big guy!"

The little boy took the money but stayed beside Jeongyeon.

Dahyun looked at Jeongyeon with a death glare. "That is uncool man!" she shouted at her who was still laughing really hard.

"You should see your face! I should have recorded you!"

"Aish! I could stab you with this fork right now!"

"Sorry! But I really came here to see you. I need your expertise." Jeongyeon said.

"After you almost gave me a heart attack?" Dahyun went back to her salad. "Hell no!" She added.

"But he needs you." Jeongyeon went behind the boy and held both his shoulders. "He has Ischemic heart disease."

Dahyun and the rest looked at the boy who looked really sad.

"Show me the scans" Dahyun finally said.

"Pro-Bono!?" Chief Park shouted while Dahyun and Jeongyeon were sitting in front of her table.

"Jeongyeon, you do realize that this hospital pays 250 employees plus the maintenance and all low level workers here!" Sandara said.

"I know but, he is a kid, who lives alone! His parent's don't seem to care!" Jeongyeon defended.

"That is no longer our concern Dr. Yoo! Okay, let's say, we operate on the kid, then suddenly his parents showed up saying that we operated on that kid without their consent! Worst case scenario, what if the kid died on the table, what would his parent do? Huh? They will sue us!" Sandara stated.

"That will never happen! I won't let anything happen to that kid! Besides, I've done this before!" Dahyun countered.

"Regardless! This is illegal!" Sandara remarked.

"We'll chip in for the cost!" Dahyun said.

"Oh, no, you will not do that!" Sandara said.

"Yes we will!" Dahyun said. "Let's go Jeong!"

They both left the room.

"Hey! Calm down." Jeongyeon said. "She is actually right. Talk about legalities." she added.

"Jeong, you took that kid to me! You asked for my help and now you want to give up?"

"I know, but she is right."

"So you think that I might kill that kid?" Dahyun shouted.

"No! Of course not!" Jeongyeon countered and held Dahyun's shoulders.

"Look, I know you are the best, that's why I asked for your help. But I never thought of legal matters before I came to you." Jeongyeon reasoned.

"So you will just give up on that kid?" Dahyun asked.

Jeongyeon srhugged her shoulders. "I don't know."

"How about we look for his parents?" Dahyun said.

Jeongyeon smiled. "I love how your mind works all the time."

Then their pagers beeped. They went to the lobby of the hospital. Everybody was shouting in fear. A man with a knife was holding a nurse against his chest and pointing his knife on her neck.

"Everyone stay back or I'll slit her throat! I just want to know where that little son of a bitch is!"

The guards were all pointing a gun at the man but reluctant to shoot. The nurse was now crying and, in the state, of trauma.

Dahyun and Jeongyeon looked at each other and both having the thoughts that he may be talking about the kid they are working on. The rest went there as well except for Mina as she was still working on her post ops.

"Sir! We know where your kid is!" Dahyun shouted. "So, if you will just calm down, I will show you to him."

The man softened a bit and let go of the nurse. But what shocked them was the man tried to attack Dahyun but Chaeyoung blocked him with a blow which led the knife cut her in the shoulder.

They were all relieved seeing the man got unconscious from Chaeyoung's blow but seeing her cut bleed made the other doctors worry.

"Dr. Son, you are bleeding. Here, let me help you." Tzuyu said and took Chaeyoung to the treatment room.

The man was taken to the E.R with his hands cuffed on the metal gurney.
