Story of Truth.

Chae Ah-Rong glanced at the time and it was just few minutes before noon. If her intel was right, President Sun's foreign visitors should have arrived in the country and would head over soon. She glanced at President Sun and noticed his impatience and how he kept tapping on the wooden table anxiously. Seems like the Lee family had really pushed him too far, he appears desperate for help at first glance.

Ah-Rong reached for the tea pot and poured the CEO a cup. He immediately took a sip which calmed him down a little. Just then, a knock was heard and a bodyguard came in. "They are here." he said.

The effect of the news was better than that of the tea. He cleared his throat and sat properly before he said, "Let them in."

The bodyguard left and returned with an old man and his bodyguard.

"Sun Joo-Won is it? I am the man you wish to meet." Wang Dae-Woong who is in disguise took a seat without regarding Sun Joo-Won's bow in greeting. Since Sun Joo-Won seems to need his help, he would behave as haughty as he could, after all, the feeling of superiority is intoxicating.

Sun Joo-Won giggled embarrassedly, he couldn't get too angry because he needed help. "What's the keyword?" Sun Joo-Won asked just to assure himself that this is the real Baron that he intended to meet.

"Haha, don't you wish to paralyze the Dragon?" Replied Wang Dae-Woong. This was enough assurance for Sun Joo-Won, he said in himself, "Yes yes, I want to paralyze the Dragon, just help me become the only flying beast soaring the sky, that's all you need to do. I don't care what happens after." He would only treat this man well until he doesn't need him anymore. He gestured to Chae Ah-Rong who picked up the tea pot and served the new man. "Please enjoy the tea." Sun Joo-Won said.

Over at PiA, Yo-Han stood beside Ron, waiting for Chae Ah-Rong to activate the recorder. Soon a beep sound rang out and Sun Joo-Won's voice played from the monitor.

"You already have a clue of what I need your help for right?, How do you plan to help? The Lee..." Sun Joo-Won was interrupted by a cough coming from Wang Dae-Woong.

After a few silent seconds Soo Joo-Won's voice reappeared, "Haha, Miss, please wait outside." Soon the man resumed his speech after the creaking sound of the door disappeared, "Actually, it's said that two emperors cannot rule a single kingdom, there is only one throne. One of us has to take the fall and I choose not to be history but the recorder of history, That is why I need your help."

"The Lee family used to be a normal enterprise until they received the backing of a powerful force sixteen years ago. The Lee family was researching into 'black gold' as at then, they managed a refinery along side some other Chemical Industrial groups. The Lee family secretly engaged in Nuclear power researches and as at then, the ban on production of nukes had only been placed but the Lee family kept creating these destructive weapons. A young lawyer caught hold of this information which was a threat to the Lee family who was just rising to success. In order to cover up these secret, they initially raised threats on the young man, I think he was an illegitimate child of the Kim family. Park Mit-, Mit-Eum, yeah, that was his name."

"The Lee family was pressured by this young lawyer and all attempt to silence him proved futile because of his background. Even though he's an illegitimate child he still comes from the reputable Kim family, they could not lay their hands on him that easily. As at then, Mit-Eum was a troublesome insect that a lot of corrupt people wanted to step on. He caused trouble for the Yoon family, he revealed their Corporate crimes and also attacked the Choi family's Laboratories who released harmful chemicals into lake Cha leaving it barren even today. Everywhere Mit-Eum went, he caused trouble for the Chaebols."

"In the end, the Lee family sought my help, along with the Yoon and Baek families, somehow the Lee family managed to gain the favor of the Jin family. I rendered my help to silence the insect disturbing the peace and everything died down but after that, the Lee family that should be indebted to my Sun family became superior and never had a thing to do with me again, they didn't even bother to repay the debt. That, I didn't really care about but I can't wait to watch as the Lee family turns it back on me like it did to the Jin family."

"There is a force supporting the boy named Ridder, rumor has it that he is Park Mit-Eum's son and he is out for revenge. Look at what happened to the Baek, Yoon and Jin families. I initially wanted to fight hand in hand with the Lee family but it appears that they want my Sun family gone too. Hehehe but that will never happen. I will destroy them. No matter how strong they have evolved to be after gaining the support of the federal government of country N who had been backing them in exchange for nuke supply, I will still destroy them. "

Yo-Han's smile broadened as he finally got his hand on this confession, 'Thanks for the tip Seung-Heon', he thought. Yo-Han turned to Ron and said, "This should be enough right? The Sun family will go down with this. Protect Old Wang and Ah-Rong, It must not be known that they met with Sun Joo-Won." He said and turned to leave but Ron stopped him. "Boss, I am afraid this will only affect the Sun family, the most that will happen to the Lee family is a stir of rumor. Moreover... Well nevermind." Ron said. He feared what Yo-Han's reaction will be if he mentioned that it's impossible to touch the Lee family. He bowed to Yo-Han and head over to perform his tasks.

It was lunch time and Yo-Han sat at the waiting area inside his office, staring at the lunch box on the coffee table. There was a nice aroma associated with the enticing dolsot bibimbap. His mother must have tipped Dan-Bi that he likes this meal the most. A smile appeared on his face as he remembered the scene where Dan-bi packed his lunch and handed it to him, she was so brazen and shameless to act like an housewife before him to the extent that he had no choice but to accept it since she wouldn't let him change her stance. He picked his spoon and delved straight into the meal. It was the first time he tried her dish, one that's not a readymade meal, and surprisingly it was ironically "not bad". After forcing himself to enjoy this specially made half-cooked meal, he fell back to the sofa and soon fell into a reverie.

He stared at the height of the tall Mari Hospital's HQ, lost in the 'New age' music oozing into his ears from his headset.

Just the knowledge that his best friend is sitting in one of the rooms in the building was enough to ease his worries that faded away in no time while he stood on the same spot, staring like a tourist admiring a monument.

He thought about how childish he was for worrying so much about this lady friend of his that brought a smile on his younger cold face. He closed his eyes and engrossed his soul into the ' Journey of the Angels' music by enya that was entertaining him, lost in his own world on the street of country S not minding what passersby think about his action.

After savouring the moment for a while, he decided that it was time to go. It was satisfactory enough that he could get this close to her therefore he didn't bother going in to meet this friend. He tried to imagine her face but it was still so blurry just like his memories but since he is currently standing before Mari hospital, he wouldn't mistake her for Yeo-Na or anyone, it's certain that it is Dan-Bi.

He took a turn around and headed in the direction of the main road to hail a taxi. He moved with slow and graceful steps.

After walking not more than ten steps, a hand suddenly pulled the headset away from his head and as a reflex action, he spontaneously grabbed the hand with his left hand and raised his right hand to land a punch on whoever the culprit is but he froze when he saw the figure standing before him, hiding her face behind her reflexively raised left arm, scared of getting hit.

"Dan-Bi, is that you, Choi Dan-Bi??" He looked sad for his reactions because he had scared her just now. Now he was more certain that she is Dan-Bi as the name subconsciously slipped out of his mouth.

The girl slowly withdrew her arm from covering her face. She looked up to the terrifyingly handsome teenager standing in front of her, not uttering a word, she hugged him tight instantly, burying her face in his chest.

On the verge of almost getting squashed from the tight hug he managed to voice out an apology. "I am sorry for scaring you, I have no intentions of hitting you, I am not as violent as you may think of me, it was just reflex."

"I understand, I know you don't mean any harm, but I was scared..." she finally uttered her first sentence and hit his chest a few times. She looked into his blue eyes and continued " I ran all the way here, I didn't even wait for the elevator to open before teleporting over to the exit of the building. I managed to catch up to you and tried gaining your attention but what I met was a fist flying in my direction, who would not be scared? Hmmn?"

" I am sorry," he said and he pulled her out of his embrace to face him before scolding her. " Why haven't you being picking your calls, you didn't even respond to my messages, why? do that one more time and I will never care anymore."

"So you do care ehn?, I did not know you cared so much I thought you were ignoring me before. Yesterday you didn't come for lunch, why?" She asked shyly, and looked a little bit embarrassed. She must have been thinking back to the night when she kissed him goodnight.

"Ignore you?, I wasn't ignoring you" he replied readily, "I had things to do and I could only spare my lunch time to attend to those matters, I even came looking for you after lessons ended but you were nowhere to be found, I called and texted, but you answered none, who is ignoring who here?" Not angry but while trying to explain himself he had gone a little farther from being calm.

"Its not like that, I misplaced my phone while rushing to the hospital yesterday, I was really scared, I was scared of loosing two things the same day, my Granny and you, I could not calm myself, I was really clumsy that I ended up losing my phone." She explained with her throat drying up as she spoke.

"What makes you think you are going to lose anything, don't be a pessimist, it won't help, I wasn't ignoring you, why would I?" Yo-Han said assuredly."Moreover you are my manager, what can I do without you?" He joked.

She calmed down when she heard him and became elated immediately. "Aye Master Han, when is the next auctioning, let's make some money!" She exclaimed.

Yo-Han fell out of his reverie when he heard a knock on his door. "Come in," He said and Bae Jang-Mi stepped in. "Sir, Mr Wang called you out for lunch and I already book a restaurant. You should leave soon, he said he had something important to talk to you about."

Yo-Han nodded, "Yeah, good idea, I better get a real lunch. I will leave in five." He replied. He had a quick flashback of the torturing moments of enduring the half cooked bibimbap.

He rose from his seat and walked to the coat rack, unhung his coat and slid into the thick clothing. He went to his desk to pick his phone. He glanced at the notification on the screen which was from the sender, "Elixir". He click open the notification and read,

"It's lunch time already, did you enjoy the meal? I am out shopping with Mom, your home looks so boring and the design is somehow shabby, I plan to remodel the interior, mom is lending a hand. See you after work."

Yo-Han let out a sigh. From the content, he knew this Elixir is Dan-Bi. And now she acts as if she is married to him. Remodelling the whole villa and even calling his mother 'mom'. "She appears to be so thick skinned that she would not let go, especially because of mom's backing."

He sent a short reply, "Okay, 'til then." He then pocketed the phone and walked out of the office.
