Return (✔)

Secret revealed...

"I don't think there's anyone here.." One of the guard said.
"Yeah,, maybe we just misheard it.. or it might just be a cat wandering around.." The other replied.
"Let's just go.."
As soon as the guards left, Hee-joon freed her up. They both sighed in relief.
"Be careful next time.." Hee-joon spoke out.
"Why are you here.. Your highness?" She asked.
"You can stop calling me that.. I knew you're already knew.." Hee-joon smiled.
"Err... knew what??" Mi-yeon asked purposely.
"Knew that you're not that innocent.. I know what your plan is, Mi-yeon... or should i say, Kim Ji-yoo.." His word making her eyes widened.
"How did you..."
"I knew your foster father or Sang-chul's father. We actually planned this.." Hee-joon said.

"What did you mean.. planned what?" Mi-yeon started to feel anxious.
"Mi-yeon, my father.. he was one of the guard who was ordered by the queen to kill you.." Hee-joon hesitantly said.
"What??" Mi-yeon stepped backward.
"No, no... please listen to me first.." Hee-joon convinced.
"My father was close with aunt Joohyun, your mother. so he couldn't do it.. he didn't dare to kill you.. Before other guards found you, my father brought you away and hide you.." Hee-joon continued.
"What.. happened then?" Mi-yeon asked.
"My father saved you, he wanted to take aunt Joohyun too but she refused. She wanted you to be safe.. I knew she left you that necklace.. that's why I'm sure that you're her daughter." Hee-joon pointed at the necklace that Mi-yeon's wore.
"My father brought you to Sang-chul's father to take care of you. He didn't make it to save aunt Joohyun too. So she was caught. When my father returned to the palace. He faked your death. Queen Taeyeon believed him.. But not for long..." Hee-joon's face suddenly turned sour.

"What's wrong?? What happened?" Mi-yeon touched his shoulder seeing him suddenly dazing out.
Hee-joon looked at her with a pity eyes.
"The Queen found out, that my father's lying.. And she.. she killed him..." Hee-joon lowered his voice.
Mi-yeon gasped as she heard it and felt pity on him. She clenched her fist.
"She had make many people became her victim... I.. I won't let her go..." Mi-yeon beamed.
"She killed him herself.. right in front of my eyes.. that's why i promised myself, to get a revenge.." Hee-joon said.
"I knew everything about you Mi-yeon, including your plan on Prince Chul-soo. We both had the same mission.. let's teamed up. There are other people who are like us, you'll know about them later.. I just wanted her to suffer. Like what he did to her victims." Hee-joon continued. But, Mi-yeon seems hesitant to join him. It's hard to trust just anyone now.
"Let's help each other."

Since then, they worked together for the revenge..
The guy who waited for Mi-yeon behind the wall after Mi-yeon talked to Chul-soo was non other than Hee-joon.
Hee-joon also the one who told Mi-yeon about Chul-soo's place although he doesn't know the details.
With his help, Mi-yeon succeeded in following Chul-soo and gained his trust.
That's how the true color of the Innocent girl Mi-yeon revealed. Now they're just a few step closer to get what they wanted.

End of flashback...

"We just can't let you know yet before. People were trying to track you down. If we told you, they might found out about this place." Chief Ga-in explained.
Mi-yeon just sighed. She was seriously clueless now.
"Thank you... all of you..." She suddenly thanked them.
"Thank you for willing to help me.." Mi-yeon continued.
"We have our own reason.." Chief Ga-in said.
"For now, we can't do anything yet.. since they're still suspecting you. Please always be careful wherever you are.. especially at the palace.." Tae-woo said.
"I didn't mind about the others cause i knew Mi-yeon could handle them. But, what I'm more worried about was that group of guys who tried to kill Mi-yeon. Based on what you told me, they're not easy to beat." Hee-joon beamed.
"Yea.. I'm also worried if they come back.. We really must watch out from now, especially to Lady Yuri.." Tae-woo replied.
"Oh about that... I forgot to tell you.." Mi-yeon suddenly remembered.
"Forgot to tell us what?" Hee-joon asked curiously.
