TW: swear words
1 hour before news of Wonwoo-Inha’s wedding breaking out:
“That bastard, how dare he do this to me!” Kim Sumi screamed as she flung the divorce papers served by Inha’s father in a fit of rage. Seo Jeha, the new President of the company and Kang Haram’s nephew scooped the papers that were strewn on the floor and laid it nonchalantly on Sumi’s desk and sat down on the chair opposite her. The pile of papers not only contained the divorce notice but also evidence of Sumi manipulating shares in KN pharmaceuticals along with a single report of a paternity test that was done on her daughter Suya which said that Kang Haram was not her father.
“Uncle Haram wants you to quietly sign the divorce papers and leave the country. If you do, then perhaps we'll look over the fact that you were siphoning off shares from Aunt Yerin’s private fund that were meant for her daughter Inha.” He politely conveyed the message.
“I'll do nothing of that sort! First he sent my daughter to the US and now he wants me to sign the divorce papers and leave Korea? How outrageous!” She lashed out.
“Ma'am, if I were you, I'd leave the country this instant because you won't like what's coming after you if you don't sign those papers.” He said in a dry tone. “Also your daughter is quite happy in the US with her biological father. I was told that both father and daughter are quite elated after the reunion. At least now she has a parent who would guide her to be good unlike you. So you should be thanking us for sending her to the US” Jeha said, getting up.
“If my secretary doesn't receive those papers after you sign them by tomorrow, then I can't guarantee your safety. So you better think carefully and take your next steps accordingly” he warned and walked away from Sumi’s office.
“Fucking imbecile. Who is he to threaten me? This is all because of that Kang Haram bastard and his daughter” she seethed as she called her secretary in.
“You have that bitch’s wedding photos right? Send them to Dispatch immediately” she barked.

In the forest shed
“My water broke” The minute Inha uttered these words, Eunbi’s heart sank. She got up immediately and went near her friend.
“Sit down first and relax. Let's call 119 to seek help” she said, snatching the phone from her friend’s hand and calling the emergency services. Eunbi had to explain for a while that she was stuck in a shed with her pregnant friend in the forest inside the resort. The dispatcher promised that he would send help soon. Meanwhile Eunbi noticed through a window that it was snowing quite heavily. But thankfully inside the shed, it was quite warm and the weather outside wasn't concerning. She tried opening the door, but because of the snow piling outside it was stuck. With her undamaged ankle she tried to kick the door but to no avail as it didn't budge.
“Eunbi, Eunbi. Stop! You will only hurt your other ankle.” Inha said as she was now resting on top of a few rags. She was breathing heavily and was a complete mess. “Come here and sit with me. I am scared”. Immediately Eunbi ran towards her friend and sat down next to her. Just then Sarang called on Inha’s phone and she picked the call only to hear a panicked Sarang on the other side.
“Inha-ya! Did you see the news?? We are coming to pick you now. Where are you?” She said hurriedly, her only concern now was to pick her dongsaeng and take her to safety after news regarding her wedding with Wonwoo broke out.
“Eonni, I am in the forest nearby, sheltering in a shed. My friend is with me” she said, conveying the situation. “We called the ambulance. So don't worry” she said calmly while taking deep breaths as if she was suppressing her discomfort.
“Shed? What shed? Send me your location ASAP!” Sarang half-screamed half-cried as she tried to assess the situation. “I'll bring the resident doctor who is at the resort. Just send me your location, okay?”
“Ne, Eonni” Inha said and sent her location.
“Is that your sister?” Eunbi asked as she wiped off the cold sweat that broke out on Inha’s forehead with a tissue.
“Seungcheol Oppa's wife. She came with me to the resort in case of any emergency” Inha explained. “She said she'd bring the resident doctor”
“I see. That's good” Eunbi said, not really looking at Inha.
“Why aren't you asking me anything, Eunbi-ya?” Inha asked her friend regarding the news that broke out.
“I already guessed,” Eunbi answered earnestly. “I saw your husband in the convenience store near the Busan rest stop. And then when the scandal broke out I was able to guess it was you. Then I happened to see you wearing your wedding ring which is engraved with his name. I then put two and two together” she said shrugging in a matter of fact way as if it doesn't mean anything to her.
“Then why are you helping me now?” Inha asked surprised looking at one of Wonwoo's biggest fan right next to her who was still wiping her sweat.
“Ha ha” Eunbi chuckled, her laugh lightening the dreary atmosphere. “You want me to react like those idiots who wanted to hurt you today?” She asked, laughing. “I admit I was a bit jealous when I saw your husband buying you-know-what in the convenience store. But it just made me realize that he is human too and that he has a life outside the glam of being a K-pop idol”. She then continued, “But I was super happy when I realized that you were his wife. I knew then that my bias was in good hands. Also you were too cute when you started stanning him. You always blushed whenever he appeared on screen. I could see that the love you had for him, went above and beyond a fan's love, so how can I hate you for that?” she smiled at her friend.
“You are a true CARAT, Eunbi-ya. Oppa would be proud to know that he has a fan like you” she said and Eunbi chuckled.
“I guess haha!” Eunbi chuckled and just then Inha winced in pain. Her contractions started and they were painful.
“Breathe. It's going to be fine. I hope your friend will be here soon” Eunbi said, reassuring her friend.
“I hope so too” Inha winced again. Right at that moment the jammed door of the shed broke up and there appeared Fei with the doctor.
