ONE YEAR AGO (JEONGHAN) :-
A middle - aged woman entered her son's room. Her name was Yoon Seoyun. Jeonghan's eyes instinctively turned towards his sick mother.
" Jeonghan " she said weakly
"Mommy, what's wrong ?" Jeonghan asked surprised.
" Let me tell you, if I am gone one day, call this person for me" she handed over an old and torn piece of paper to the young lad.
" Why are you suddenly saying this?" implored Jeonghan. He was not prepared for her death.
"I know my body Han." Her bright smile outshone her pale face.
"Why don't you call him yourself" Jeonghan suddenly seemed curious about the number.
"Because, we made a bet" replied the woman
" A bet?"
Seoyun nodded her head.

FEW HOURS AFTER HE RESCUED SEUNGCHEOL :-
Today was the day his mom died due to lung cancer. He did not waste his time crying, he knew that she would always be around her. Jeonghan was arranging Seoyun's belongings.
" I shouldn't have helped that guy. I couldn't see my mom for the last time." he said to himself in a sad tone.
While going through a book, the same note which his mother had shown him a year before, caught his attention. He remembered his mother's wish. He dialled the number
📞📞📞📞📞📞
Hello? -
{The voice sounded cold}
Excuse me, is this Mr. Choi Seungwoo ?
Who are you? How do you have this number ? -
Someone asked me to call you
Who ?-
Is this Yoon Seoyun ? Where is she ? -
She told me to tell you , "Choi Seungwoo, in the end it's you who lost"
{The old man suddenly panicked}
That's i-impossible ! Put her on the phone immediately -
{Jeonghan was starting to get annoyed. He did not want to be reminded about her demise }
I can pay you a large sum of money -
Why would I want your money ?
Who exactly are you then? Let me talk to Seoyun on the phone right now.-
She's already gone
What do you mean by "she's already gone" ?Who's she to you? ANSWER TO ME ! -
{This was the last straw}
WHO I AM TO MY MOM IS NONE OF YOUR DAMN BUSINESS. ! WATCH YOUR ATTITUDE!
📞📞📞📞📞📞
Jeonghan cut the call angrily. First that Seungcheol guy and then this stranger! He had some tolerance level but not a good one.
MEANWHILE AT CHOI SEUNGWOO'S OFFICE :-
He started getting mad, hearing the devastating news..
"Seoyun's g-gone! She's dead!" He threw a glass vase out of frustration. His secretary, Nayeon rushed to him, worried.
"President, what happened? Are you alright ?"
The President, fixed his glasses and replied "I'm fine"
" Right, has Seungcheol come back from Canada?" asked the man
"He was mildly injured so he will come by in a few days" answered Nayeon politely.
"Call him, and Mingyu and Hansol. Tell them to immediately come see me tomorrow morning" ordered Seungwoo. The young lady nodded.

THE NEXT DAY :-
Mingyu and Seungcheol were the first ones to come. The door opened :
" Ah, Vernon's here" announced Mingyu, hugging his younger half - brother.
This is how the three brothers assembled in the first place. After pulling away from the embrace Vernon asked
" Choi Seungcheol, what are you doing here?"
" Since when did I need to report my schedule to you? " replied Seungcheol in a dominating tone.
" Also, when you see your senior shouldn't you respectfully say hello using honorifics? 'Hyung' try saying that " he added. Vernon looked at Mingyu and then at the eldest.
" What right do you have to call yourself 'Hyung' ? Do you still remember the time I got kidnapped?
The criminals called you to ask for ransom money, and you hung up the phone on them! Why did you do that?" questioned Vernon angrily
"Before you go blaming someone else, think about why you were kidnapped in the first place, and stop being annoying about it!" said Seungcheol
" This is your way of being an elder brother? You have the audacity to tell me to use honorifics on you" ridiculed Vernon. Mingyu pinched the bridge of his own nose out of annoyance. This happens all the time we get together.
"Stop it Vernon, Cheol Hyung's way of caring is different from other people. He just wants you to watch out for your safety."
Seungcheol smiled after hearing these words. Vernon grumpily argued :
" Be careful ? This is how he cares about me? He only criticizes me!"
" Hey! That's exactly what I'm going for" commented Seungcheol
"Choi Seungcheol, don't think I'm still young and can't win a fight against you" said Vernon, heading towards the eldest, massaging his knuckles. His opponent smirked. He pushed Vernon, causing him to fall. Thankfully, the big puppy, Mingyu was there to catch his dongsaeng. The victim groaned in pain.
" I don't want to fight fools. Exactly how many times do I need to tell you to call me 'Hyung' ?" stated the victor.
" Even a three- year old is better than you" added Seungcheol. Vernon accepted defeat, but only in this round.
"You want me to call you 'Hyung ? Fine! But...
Apologize to me about the kidnapping incident! APOLOGIZE! "ordered Vernon.
" Stop arguing!" shouted Mingyu.
"Do you guys know why dad suddenly called us here?" questioned Mingyu curiously.
"Maybe he's sick and wants to divide his assets" suggested the youngest hopefully.
"It doesn't sound like it's going to be a good news" Seungcheol put forth his thoughts about the matter. Speak of the devil, their father entered the room.
