4 The Confrontation

After Dak-Ho entered the bathroom, Yeo-jin stood in front of the glass door of her balcony looking at the magical view in front of her, where the sky was studded with stars and the moon in the middle of the sky and above the shiny hotels that shimmer and surrounded the VIP building where they lived,

So she spoiled the moment she contemplated a message on her phone sent from an unknown number:

"I'll be waiting for you at the star hotel, ten o'clock in the evening... If you don't show up in time, you know very well what I can do."

Yeo-jin's phone fell from her hand, making a loud sound,

Dak was terrified the moment he came out, saying:

What's wrong with you, Yeo-jin?

Yeo-jin replied hesitantly

-Nothing just the phone slipped out of my hand

Dak sighed for a moment as he looked at her and then said,

Honey, you should take a break from your work from time to time, you look exhausted.

Yeo-jin nodded her head in the affirmative without raising her eyes and then said,

well, Dak, I'll do it while I have time, but now let's go to sleep, we have a long day tomorrow.

******

Mi-Young arrived at her home, sighing because of the events of the long day. Then she raised her head and found her husband sitting on the rocking chair waiting for her to come back. She sighed more as she knew that the day would not pass without a quarrel.

Where John Cha started his speech by saying:

It was a busy day, wasn't it?

Mi-Young replied curtly,

Yes, why do you ask, are you worried about me as an example!

Then she sighed and said,

for your information, I'm going to the police station tomorrow

John Cha said resolutely,

I know, just remind you as always, you must maintain your prestige and remember that you are John Cha's wife!

Mi Young replied sarcastically,

Well, well, don't repeat the same tape...

Mi Young's talk and her way of responding to him made him angry

He said in a serious tone:

- I am the owner of the shares that will fall and reach the bottom, not you!

His speech provoked her, and she laughed hysterically, then added

Yes, I'm tired of you talking about stocks and money.

You and my dad really look alike

She went up the stairs to her room, and John Cha interrupted her:

Before you go to bed, when will you go to the doctor?

I want an heir until he is settled in my position, for my great-grandfather will not leave my position as it is, without me having an heir........

Then continue:

I also had medical tests done, but what about you, any plans for that?

Mi Young answered him in an annoying voice

Well, by the end of the week

*****

The next morning

Police interrogation day

*****

Ji Ho arrives at the police station with a sullen face, telling you how difficult last night was and how he couldn't sleep. The first thing he did upon arrival was to ask him about Detective Do-Hyun.

So the police soldier entered him after announcing his presence,

and Do-Hyun welcomed him, saying,

Hi Ji Ho, your face is tired, of course, I knew yesterday that you won't be able to sleep

Ji Ho interrupted him:

I'm fine,

Then Do-Hyun said,

Well, it seems that you came for your mysterious friend and not because of your sense of justice or for your testimony....

Ji Ho added,

We will not disagree on this matter, Do-Hyun.

Just tell me, please, when can I meet Sujin?

Do-Hyun stuttered a little and sighed, then added,

Well, I will investigate with him first, then the rest of the audience, and after we finish all the witnesses, I will let you meet him

Ji-Ho said with relief on his face,

Well, Do-Hyun, thank you, I'll wait...

Do-Hyun set out to start the interrogation, so Ji Ho took a seat, one of the seats reserved for visitors and witnesses outside the interrogation room, and while he was waiting to see Sujin, he heard fast legs running like horses and noise from the hum of some soldiers and Sujin was surrounded by soldiers on both sides and his head facing the ground, Ji Ho was shocked to see Sujin unconscious, so he hurried to ask the soldiers in a very worried voice about Sujin's health condition. he followed them until they reached the clinic room, so the soldiers ordered Ji Ho to leave and insisted that he should not be here.

So he convinced them that he would at least sit in the reception department of the clinic until he was reassured, but he remembered that the time to give his testimony had come, so he left them running. And then reached the police station, it was five to ten minutes away from the police station and his clinic

As soon as he finished his testimony, he asked Do-Hyun to allow him to see Sujin,

Do-Hyun refused, telling him that he was lying in bed and would not be able to speak, Ji Ho assured him that he would only take a look at him and leave, which convinced Do-Hyun to allow him to visit him at last, but stressed that not allowed there, so he decided to go with him and wait for him outside the room

They both arrived at the clinic and then Ji Ho walked in as Sujin was still unconscious which worried

Ji-Ho a lot, so he wandered in his mind and drowned a little in his thoughts, so he said to himself :

- With this situation, I really don't know how to feel, should I be sad or happy

- happy to have seen Sujin after all these years or sad for what he has become, why is he in such a miserable state that I have never seen him, and why is he only now?

Why is he insisting that Su-Bin was killed by Duck Ho, Mi Young, and Min-Ki,

Of course, they were mischievous characters, and they made my life for Su-Bin and I difficult,

But Su-Bin died due to a car accident, I saw it with my own eyes and I called the police at that time !

Lots of questions running through my mind, but I have to check Sujin first, if Su-Bin is here with us, that's the first thing you decide to do.

Ji Ho's fugue interrupted, Sujin who was still half-awake muttered as he repeatedly pronounced Su-Bin's name asking her to forgive him.

Ji Ho next to him, Ji Ho said,

Sujin, go ahead and drink some water.

Sujin looked at him angrily and threw the glass of water on the ground and then added in a thick and sharp voice,

Get away from me, I don't want to see you, get away from me.

Ji Ho looked at him with his eyes on the verge of tears, not knowing why Sujin was so upset with him, he said in a sad tone,

Why, my brother, do you treat me in this way? I wish the day I saw you, during the past years, I tried so hard to reach you that I went to America more than once to see you, but I didn't find you.

Sujin laughed madly with applause:

I never knew you were so rude - I knew you were a coward when Su-Bin died, but today you prove to me that you have another shame

Ji Ho said,

- What's wrong with you Sujin, what brings us to this point!

Tell me what's on your mind, what you've been doing and how you lived after Su-Bin's death,

Why do you insist that they killed Su-Bin? - All the questions in my mind almost make my mind explode - Tell me, brother, don't leave me tortured like this

Sujin looked at him angrily:

- what? Are you tormented? Trust me, you don't know that yet

Ji-Ho yelled while holding Sujin's wrists: -

Sujin, I was never a coward with Su-Bin or with you, you know more how much I cherish you and Su-Bin, and I have never forgotten you!

Sujin removed Ji Ho's hand from his wrists in disgust and shrugged,

- Shut up, don't mention Su-Bin's name on your tongue. Do you know what happened the day Su-Bin died? Did you know that on the day of the accident, she did not call anyone, but only called you!

You're the one Su-Bin thought you'd save but you ...

let her down

...

He said it with tears falling from his eyes, Ji Ho drowned in his thoughts, trying to remember the day of Su-Bin's death,

Remembering that they were at odds the first time since that day, he was annoyed by Su-Bin's reaction,

Since Su-Bin was scolding him for another girlfriend, she was called Burim, and she was a very close friend of Su-Bin, Ji Ho was close to Su-Bin as well, , so he successively became friends with her too

On the fateful morning, Su-Bin came to scold him, saying

You, Ji Ho, don't really deserve to love Burim, you caused her a psychological crisis, if you don't pay special attention to her, why did you treat her so kindly... and made her so confused....

Su-Bin said this after finding Burim breaking down in tears, because Ji Ho refused Burim's confession to him.,

Accusing Ji Ho of taking advantage of Burim's kindness and love

Ji Ho got angry when he heard her say this to him, but he didn't know what was the real reason behind his anger

Is it because Su-Bin is accusing him, or is it because Su-Bin didn't realize his love for her and that she doesn't feel the same way back and that she might just treat him well out of pity?

Ji Ho remembered how turbulent he was that day and how he thought

Su-Bin was calling him just because of the fight in the morning, it was Su-Bin's habit of never letting anyone upset with her before her day was over she had to resolve any disagreement or misunderstanding,

But he really didn't imagine for a moment that she was begging for help from him .....

Sujin interrupted his shroud, saying

What's wrong with you, behold, you are silent now, did you realize how much you betrayed her...

Ji Ho replied in a sad voice, tinged with regret

- What happened to Su-Bin? To beg for help, please tell me, Sujin, what happened that night

Do-Hyun suddenly burst into the room:

Come on, Ji Ho, time's up, you can't sit here anymore

Ji Ho cried heartily and begged on his knees, and then added:

Sujin I beg you, this will be my last request, tell me what happened

to Su-Bin on this day.
