Sitting on the couch of their living room, Yunjin listened to her parents explain their real professions and the fact that she's had a twin her whole life, but they never told her.

Jennifer was like Chaewon and Yunjin was like Anna.

"Mother, father, I love The Kim's daughter, I'm not breaking up with her under any circumstance if you were gonna suggest it." Yunjin said sternly.

Her parents sighed. "Well it's actually quite the opposite, we were planning on using your relationship to persuade her into signing the contract." TBG revealed.

Yunjin scrunched her face in confusion, "I have so many questions... First, why would you need to use our relationship to persuade her into signing the contract? What even is this contract?"

"It declares partnership, her parents are terrible, they never loved her and they always told her she wasn't enough. If she joins us, we won't treat her like a daughter, but she'll finally be in an environment away from them."

"Partnership... So why are you turning our relationship into business?"

"We're not turning it into business. It's simple enough, Yunjin. If she signs the contract she will still get to be with you, if not, then we are still considered enemies and she will ever lay a finger on my daughter again."

"I don't want to be a part of this world, I want to keep living my normal life. And my normal life has Chaewon in it."

"Yunjin, dear," Min started, "Now that you're aware of our real jobs, you can't live a normal life anymore."

"Why not, The Kims did it with their twins."

"Yes, now one of them is suicidal and the other ended up being a serial killer. Yunjin, now that you know, your life has to change. Not because we want you in this industry. We didn't. But we have a long long long list of enemies that counted on you staying oblivious. Family is an enemy's number one target in this world."

"So, why does Chaewon have to sign some contract? She wants to protect me."

"She wants to protect you, no matter what that means. I'm afraid she'd even get rid of us if it meant keeping you safe. We're thankful she loves you, but we just want to make an agreement."

They're afraid Chaewon would get rid of them if it meant keeping me safe?

"As your daughter... aren't you supposed to be happy that there's someone out willing to kill anybody to keep me safe? Don't you love me?"

"Of course we do! But if we are gone, that leaves you to lead our industry alone, and you don't know anything about it."

It still didn't make sense to Yunjin. Contracts are known for being tricky. She voiced her concern to Chaewon later that day, laying in bed with her.

"I got the contract in the mail this morning. One of the lines basically said that by signing the contract I'm signing my rights to The Huh Family." Chaewon chuckled.

"You didn't sign it, right?"

"I threw it into the paper shredder in my mom's office."

Yunjin sighed in relief, she doesn't want Chaewon to be used anymore. She must be her own person finally.

"So, what do you think this means for us?"

"Nothing's pulling us apart. I'll do whatever it takes, don't even worry about us."

"Well, it seems like my father wants to kill you and your family if you don't sign it."

"It'll be much harder to take us down then your father believes, there's a reason why he wanted to partner with me so badly. Having me on his team would serve as a great advantage for him. I don't like how he's already assuming that you'll want to join him in the family business that is crime and drugs. Do you want to join that world?"
