"Ms. Pham, we should head to Mr. Pham's villa. Your father is looking for you."

"Come on, Sebastian, let me at least spend a night here." Hanni insisted, her eyes fixed on the beautiful mountains and sea in the Seorimdo Province.

"Should I book you a room, Ms. Pham?"

"No need, Sebastian." Hanni replied with a serene smile, her mind already at ease due to the natural beauty surrounding her.

"Get the car, Sebastian. I want to go to some place in Seorimdo." Hanni instructed. Sebastian, being Hanni's driver and a body guard, obeyed her order.

Sebastian swiftly moved to fetch the car, knowing better than to question her intentions.

Questioning a person coming from the Pham would be life threatening to someone working hard to live.

Once inside the car, Hanni settled into the backseat as Sebastian started the engine and drove the car to the roads of Seorimdk. The serene landscape of Seorimdo unfolded outside the window, capturing Hanni's attention as she lost herself in the beautiful scenery of mountains and the seas that are well compatible with each other.

"Ms. Pham, where do you want to go?" Sebastian asked, breaking the silence with his respectful tone.

"Just continue driving, Sebastian. I'll tell you when to stop." Hanni responded calmly, her eyes still fixed on the window.

Sebastian nodded again, focusing on the road ahead as he drove through the
roads of Seorimdo. He respected Hanni's order and patiently waited until the young lady ordered him to stop driving.

"Stop, Sebastian." Hanni ordered him, resulting in Sebastian stopping the car. "This part of Seorimdo is filled with people. I want to explore here."

Excitedly, Hanni stepped out of the car and began to wander around this place, admiring and taking pictures of the vibrant surroundings.

"Seorimdo really loves to surprise visitors and tourists, doesn't it?" Hanni remarked with a smile, letting herself feel the atmosphere.

Suddenly, Hanni bumped with someone who was walking briskly without paying attention to where she headed.

"Do you want me to go after her, Ms. Pham?" Sebastian asked Hanni. He witnessed the thing that had occurred to Hanni, which is the girl bumping with the young miss.

"No need, Sebastian. It's not a big deal, and let me enjoy this day."

"I'm sorry, Ms. Pham." Sebastian apologized, feeling responsible for Hanni's distress.

"Just give me a few minutes alone, please." Hanni requested gently, and Sebastian respected her wish, keeping a respectful distance as she explored the area on her own.

As Hanni wandered through the bustling area, she saw children laughing and playing happily with their families. Seeing that kind of scenario made Hanni wonder about the memories she had forgotten.

Or her memories that people purposely want her to forget.

But the beautiful scenery around her quickly shrugged off those thoughts aside, bringing a sense of peace and contentment.

For a few precious moments, Hanni felt at ease.

After a while, she resumed her stroll. She was fascinated by the charm and cool atmosphere of Seorimdo. Every corner she turned revealed something new and delightful.

Hanni signaled to Sebastian, who quickly understood her request to get the car, as she wanted to check out  more places in the Seorimdo.

Sebastian nodded and swiftly left to fetch the car. Moments later, he pulled up in front of Hanni's location. Hanni stepped out, her eyes darted around the beautiful surroundings before settling into the back seat. As soon as she closed the door, Sebastian began to drive.

"Ms. Pham, would you like to go right or left?" Sebastian asked as they approached  crossroad.

"Right."

Sebastian turned the car onto the right road, the scenery passing by in a blur of the green and blue. The drive was peaceful. Hanni leaned back, momentarily lost in thought.

Suddenly, as they continued down the road, a pedestrian began to cross the road. Sebastian noticed the person, but it was too late to stop the car from moving forward.

And the dull thud made Hanni's eyes widen in shock.

"We... we hit someone?" Hanni asked. Her voice is barely audible in the air.

Hanni opened the car door, her heart pounding as she stepped out to check on the person lying motionless on the ground.

"Oh, God."

"Ms. Pham, do you want me to bury her? I will buy a shovel ar–"

"Stop that kind of talk, Sebastian. Let's take her to my rest house nearby. We can't bring her to the hospital; if my father finds out, your life and position will be in danger. Come on, help me."

Sebastian nodded his head. He bent down and carefully lifted the girl, cradling her body in his arms. Hanni quickly opened the back door, and Sebastian gently laid the girl inside.

"I'll contact Danielle. Please, be fast, Sebastian." Hanni urged, her voice trembling.

Sebastian got back into the driver's seat and started the car. He sped up the car towards Hanni's rest house. Hanni pulled out her phone and dialed Danielle's number with shaking hands.

"Danielle, it's Hanni. We have an emergency. I need your help right away."

"What happened, Hanni?"

"We... We hit someone on the way. We need a doctor. I need the doctor at Gurye Rest House."

"Alright, Dr. Jung will arrive there as soon as possible."

"Hey, Hanni, what the hell happened?" Danielle greeted them with concern as soon as Sebastian and Hanni entered the resthouse.

"Dr. Jung is already inside the room with two nurses. Don't worry, everything will be okay." She assured Hanni.

Danielle gently held Hanni's hand and guided her to sit on the sofa.

Sebastian came out from the room and handed Hanni the girl's identification card. Hanni studied it for a moment, her brows furrowing in surprise.

"Kim Minji? A psychiatrist? Does this name ring a bell to you, Danielle?" Hanni murmured aloud, turning to Danielle for any recognition.

Danielle shook her head, "I have no interest in psychiatry." She replied.

Hanni's mind filled with questions, but she brushed it off. "Sebastian, run a background check on this girl right now." She instructed.

"Understood, Ms. Pham." Sebastian replied, taking the ID card from Hanni's hand and leaving to carry out her orders.

After a few hours, Dr. Jung came out of the room.

Hanni stood up anxiously as Dr. Jung approached. "How is she?" She asked, her voice trembling with worry.

Dr. Jung offered a reassuring smile. "She's fine now," he replied calmly. "She didn't sustain any major injuries, but further tests would be necessary to be certain."

Hanni let out a sigh of relief. She felt that the weight from her chest was lifted off. "Thank you, Dr. Jung. Is she awake? Can I see her?"

Dr. Jung nodded. "Yes, she's awake. You can go in."

Before she entered the room, she saw Sebastian send her various information about Minji.

As Hanni went inside the room, she saw the girl with her head in a bandage.

Hanni was quite surprised at how good-looking the latter is.

Closing the distance between them, Hanni spoke softly but directly. "You're a psychiatrist, Ms. Kim?" She asked.

Minji with cold expression, "If I am, then what?" She replied, her voice having a hint with tiredness.

Hanni's expression hardened. "Stop with your rude behavior, sweet," she said sharply. "I heard you're wanted for murder right now."
