While reading the article, a tear drop unknowingly came out of Hanni's eyes. She was shocked and heart broken at the same time.

Never in her wildest dreams she ever imagined that she would be represented as a characterless woman.



"Oh my God! Is she really pregnant?"

"I wonder whose child she's carrying!"

"Now I'm feeling disgusted that we work in the same office, what a slut!"

"Imagine how Miss Hana is feeling She must be devastated!"

"Wasn't one rich people enough that she was aiming for multiple? Are those people blind?"

Hearing the harsh comments coming from her colleagues, she felt like burying herself in the ground. How quick people were to judge her, based on a baseless article She couldn't take it anymore and decided to leave.

She was halfway to the door when suddenly the door flew open, revealing a confused looking Minji. Seeing Hanni in front of her, she was startled at first. But when she saw her teary eyes she felt a sudden pang of sadness in her heart.

"Hanni......" she decided to speak but she didn't listen. She tried to walk out of the room when Minji grabbed her hand to stop her.

"Please....... don't make it more complicated than it already is" Hanni mumbled in between her sobs.

Then she realized what she meant. Everyone was now looking at them with curiosity in their eyes. Minji didn't waste a moment and dragged her towards Miss Song's private office.

"LEAVE" Minji ordered Miss Song who was peacefully working at her desk.

"M-Maam..... Is something wro...?" Miss Song asked, being confused.

"I SAID LEAVE!" This time Minji shouted at her and she ran out of the office in a hurry. Other employees who were watching curiously also got startled at her sudden outburst.

After Miss Song left, Minji closed the door from inside and also closed the shutters so that no one could see them from outside.

"What are you doing?" Hanni asked, being confused at her behavior.

"Hanni, is it true? Are you really pregnant?"

"Why do you care?" Hanni spat.

"Cause if you're pregnant then I'm sure it's mine. We didn't use......."

"Does it matter if it's your child or not? Cause you're not gonna take responsibility anyways" Hanni cut in before Minji could finish her sentence.

"Is that what you think of me?" Minji asked and hurt was evident in her voice.

"You said it clearly to your father. A marriage is a huge responsibility to you then I'm sure you won't like to take the responsibility of being a Parent. I won't burden you with this child, so don't worry," Hanni said as she wiped her tears.

"You're getting me wrong. These are completely different situations. Let me just......"

Hanni didn't wait to hear Her explanation and walked out of the room. Getting out of the room she paused for a moment, seeing all the eyes on her. Then getting her conscience back, she ran out in a hurry. Jennie picked both her and Hanni's bags and followed Hanni.

"Is that why you called off the wedding with Hana? Because of that gold digging whore?"

Minji's father shouted. After he heard the news, he immediately called Minji to their family house.

"No, she's not the reason. I didn't even know that she was pregnant with my child" Minji replied, trying hard to keep her calm.

"What? Your child? Is that what she told you? She's a gold digger for God's sake. How can you believe her, you naive kid!" Mr Kim shouted again.

"She's neither a gold digger nor a whore. She's just a normal girl who got stuck in this mess all because of me. That article is nothing but a distortion of the truth!" This time Minji shouted, losing her patience.

"Are you sure it's your child?" Minji's mother asked.

Minji nodded and Mr Kim gave her a confused look.

"I would like to meet her. After all she's carrying our grandchild.
No matter what happens, I want my grandchild," Mrs Kim replied.

After Minji was done with her parents, she tried to call Hanni many times but she didn't pick up. However, at night Nancy called Minji.

"Minji, I looked into the matter and you were right. I captured the guy who took those photos and guess what, it was Hana who hired him!"

"I'm not surprised anymore. She played really dirty this time. Um... do you know how is Hanni doing?"

"After she went into her apartment, she didn't come out. So I don't know. But Minji there's something more important. There's someone else who is stalking her. I failed to catch him."

"I think The Vipers knew about her whereabouts all this time and they kept an eye on her to get to us. There's no doubt that they already know about me, that I'm one of the spies"

Hanging up the call, Minji drove to hanni's apartment. When she opened the door, she saw her eyes swollen and cheeks stained with dried tears.

"What're you doing here?" Hanni asked.

"You can't stay here. You are being followed and they may harm you anytime soon. Come with me," Minji explained.

"I'm not going anywhere. I need to sleep so please go away" Hanni said and tried to slam the door on Minji but she managed to stop her.

"Hanni try to understand. At least think about....... our child"

Minji pleaded and then looked at her with her large doe eyes. The mention of the child made Hanni rethink her decision and she just stood there silently.

"I'll pick you up tomorrow, so be ready," Minji said and then turned to walk away.

However she paused on her steps and hugged Hanni all of a sudden.

Engulfing her in her long arms, she left a chaste kiss on the side of her head and walked away in a hurry. Hanni's cheeks turned red as she didn't expect this sweet gesture from her.

"Boss, I think they've found out that we are following her. They're planning to move her."

"She is carrying her child so I bet she'd do anything to save her.

Kidnap her as soon as possible. She'll lure all of them right in our den. Let's see how they get away this time!"

"I'm on it boss."
