As if fate is testing Umji, she got a call from her mother that her daughter; Jasmine will be at the office to fetch her and spend some time with her since she's quite busy these days.
"Mom! She can't go. Jimin's here. He can't see her." She said in a hushed voice, almost in a whisper.
"Too late dear. We're here. Jasmine misses you so much. Do her a favor and introduce her to her father." Her mom said on the other line.
"Mom I can't, he wouldn't believe that and trust me he would deny Jiji. That will hurt my daughter so much." Umji said. Her mother hung already signaling that they're already at the building.
Upon reaching Umji's floor, the little girl dressed in a dainty dress started running around the office. She knows almost everyone except for that new man in one of the VIP offices.

Jimin was fascinated to see a little girl in the office so he walked towards her and crouched down to her level and began talking to her.
"Hello~ Are you lost?" Jimin said fondly. Jiji blinked and shook her head. "This building is mommy's."
"Oh~ your mommy? Who is she?" Jimin was curious but as soon as 'Umji' spilt from the youngster's lips his heart began to pound crazily. He's face to face with his daughter. "What's your name? By the way, I'm Jimin."
"Hi Mr Jimin, I am Jasmine...but mommy calls me Jiji." The girl then left Jimin's office with a box of chocolates on her hand.
"Mommy! Look at what I got! I got a box of chocolates from Mr Jimin!" the kid happily skipped as she entered her mother's office. Yewon's heart raced as she knows that they already met. Umji knelt down and caresses her daughter's cheek and pecked her forehead. "That's good baby girl. Eat it after we have dinner, okay?" The obedient kid nodded.
"Did that Mr Jimin tell you something? Is he nice to you?"
"He's really nice mommy~ He looked like me too. I wish he's my dad." Umji sighed and patted her daughter's head. "Your dad passed away already baby girl. Just because Jimin-ssi looks like you doesn't mean he's your dad. Anyways why don't we go out for dinner? What do you want to eat?"
"Pizza!" The young girl exclaimed. ------
Jimin wants see Jasmine again, he wants to hug his daughter and tell her that he's her father but he is hesitant. Who is he to assert his rights when he himself was so sure that he pushed Umji away that night.
He took a deep sigh, mustering all his courage as he made his way towards Umji's office. He knocked and opened the door. Finding the woman sitting on her swivel chair focused on her paperworks.
"Yewon-ssi, are you busy? May I come in?"
Umji almost jolted from her seat as she heard Jimin's honey like voice again.
"What is it about? Please make it quick, I'm busy." Umji said sternly.
"I'm sorry for what I did back then. I was young and reckless. I was self centered. I'm sorry you suffered because of me." He said softly, his head hung low.
Umji was quite taken aback. "I forgot all about it Jimin-ssi. Stop reminding me of that mistake."
"Yewon-ssi, it wasn't a mistake. How could you say it was when we have a daughter? You didn't gave me a chance to meet her."
"She doesn't need a father, Jimin-ssi. I knew our parents arranged things for us so I left, you know why? Because I know what my life would be with you given the fact that I was weak and shaking that night but you still pushed me out like I'm a disgusting piece of trash, I wasn't fully clothed that night, Jimin-ssi, and now you had the audacity to call her your daughter? Don't you dare take my daughter away."
"I am not going to take her away. Yewon-ssi, I went to America to look for you, I asked your parents but they don't want to give me your address. I saw you but I had no guts to approach you. I'm so sorry for what I acted that night. Yewon-ssi, if you would permit, I want to ask your hand in marriage, please give me a chance."
"Park Jimin what are you saying? You want to marry me? For what? For who? For Jasmine? I told you, I have raised her on my own, she doesn't need a father."
"I know that you raised her on your own but now, I'm here. I want to raise her too, I am her father and whether or not she doesn't need me, I need her, I need you. I need you because love you. I'm sorry I did push you away that night. I was frantic because I wasn't using protection and I might get you pregnant and yes I did, I got you pregnant, I wanted to take responsibility but you ran away. That night, I made love to you. Remember that."
Umji was speechless, she didn't know what to say, tears just started to roll from her eyes. She stood up from her chair and went to the window and sobbed. Jimin walked towards her and backhugged her. He gingerly spun her around and pulled her into a passionate and longing kiss.
"I'll make it up to you, I promise." Jimin said while caging her in his arms lovingly.
