Lora looks unhappy when she hears the first question. And Kevinâs intentional provocation makes it worse.
âOh, right. Lora, your chairman, is in serious debt. Of course, we wonât help her pay it off. So, you guys want to cast your votes to her or me? What about....â
Everyone present understands what is going on before Kevin finishes the sentence. So, they all make the sensible decision to vote for Kevin.
âThatâs very good. Then, Ms. Lora, could you please leave because we are going to hold a formal meeting.â
Kevin says calmly, âLewis, go and get the security guards.â
âNo need.â
Lora forces out two words and leaves without looking back.
The secretary on the side looks at Lora and Kevin, not knowing what to do.
âWait in the office first,â Lewis understands her dilemma and says.
The secretary nods, assuming that Lewis might be a good guy.
When there is no outsider in the office, Kevin settles to business.
âMy purpose in buying this company is very simple. Itâs a gift for my wife. It was hers to begin with, so I canât leave it in other peopleâs hands.â
As he speaks, the directors realize that his wife is Sunny, who was driven away by Lora and her daughter.
âYes, yes, yes. Mr. Kevin is absolutely right. That kind of person should be taught a lesson.â
Lora stands on the roof, somewhat at a loss. Her job is someone elseâs now.
Lost in thought, she receives a phone call.
âMr. Ryan, I....â
Before she can say anything, the man on the phone interrupts her, âI heard that you were kicked out of the board. How pitiful. Hurry up and pay me back the money. How unlucky. If you canât get the money, watch out for yourself.â
Before Lora can speak, the guy hangs up the phone after giving her a deadline.
The wind grows stronger.
Lora glances at the tall building beneath her feet and feels dizzy. Then, as if thinking of something, she closes her eyes and jumps.
Sunny is busy in the hospital today. For some reason, a lot of people are sent in. They get here from car accidents and suicides by way of jumping out of a building, etc.
Sunny looks at the figure lying on the stretcher and feels somewhat familiar. Is that...?
Suddenly, her phone rings.
âHello?â
âSunny? Are you Sunny?â
It is a manâs voice.
âYes. Whatâs wrong?â
The man sounds panicky. âYour mother jumped off a building. But it had nothing to do with me. Please donât come looking for me again. Thatâs all.â
Then he hangs up.
She jumped?
Sunny thoughtfully glances at the figure that has just arrived. Is she here? What a coincidence.
But she doesnât have a mother.
Kevin calls shortly afterwards. She doesnât know where he is, but she can hear a noise in the background and also the wind.
âSunny, where are you?â
She answers, âIâm in the hospital. Where else can I be?â
Knowing that Sunny is in the hospital, Kevin heaves a sigh of relief, saying, âDid you receive any strange calls?â
Strange calls? The phone call just now comes to her mind.
âYes, there is one. I wonder who it was.â
Kevin sounds nervous, âWhat did he say to you?â
âHe said that my mother jumped off a building, and that he didnât have anything to do with it. Is that hilarious? I donât even have a mother anymore.
Why would someone say that?â
Sunny is speaking with a smile, but then her expression freezes before she can finish the sentence, because she suddenly remembers that she does have a mother.
âWhere are you now?â
With a hunch, she asks that, although it sounds like she is being controlling.
âI ... Iâm at your company.â Hesitating for a while, Kevin decides to tell her the truth.
Sunny is surprised. âWhat are you doing there?â
Kevin says, âItâs about what Lewis told you on the phone today. I planned to tell you tonight, but something happened, so....â
Sunny nods. âThen what happened?â
Kevin stammers, âItâs Lora. She jumped off the building.â
What?
Only then does Sunny understand what that phone call means. âShe really did that? Where?â
Kevin canât hide it any longer, so he tells her straightforwardly, âI bought her company. She is in debt and canât pay it off. Thatâs why she chose to end her life this way. She should be in your hospital now, because it is the closest.â
Her real mother committed suicide because of Lora. But now that Lora has done the same thing, Sunny feels something for her, but she doesnât know why.
âThen Iâll check on her. She should be undergoing surgery.â
As Sunny speaks, she walks to the emergency room, but Kevin stops her.
âI heard that Zola and the others were on their way. You should stay where you are now. If you bump into them, it will be troublesome.â
Sunny thinks for a moment and agrees with Kevin. âThen Iâll....â
âWait for me in your office. Iâll be there soon. Give me five minutes.â
Then Sunny hears a rumbling sound coming from the other end of the phone.
For some reason, Kevinâs voice soothes her. It feels like she doesnât need to worry about anything that may occur.
So, she waits for Kevin in the office as he said.
Sunny feels she just hung up the phone when he arrives.
âWhy are you so fast?â
âI had to comfort the directors. Otherwise, I would have arrived earlier.â
Kevin gives an irrelevant answer and asks, âWhere is Lora?â
Sunny sees that there are only a few patients in the morning, and she has checked the ward. So, she tells the nurse something to notice, and then brings Kevin over.
âThe operating room is over there. The main surgeon is the director of the department.â
Sunny sees Zola standing there holding a child not far from the operating room, and Zola is crying.
âThatâs sad.â
She sighs, and then turns to Kevin, saying, âWhat should we do now?â
Kevin rubs his chin and says, âDo you think if we tell her that her mother is in serious debt, she will not want her to wake up?â
...
Sunny quietly moves farther away from Kevin. This person seems to be quite a gentleman. But sometimes, he is wicked.
However, after she takes two steps, she is pulled back by Kevin. âLetâs go. Itâs time to face the reality.â
Kevin drags Sunny over. Then he pretends to care, saying to Zola, âIâm so sorry.â
...
Zola is wallowing in grief and believes him.
âI am fine. Sunny, Kevin, thank you for coming.â
...
What?
Being dragged away by Kevin, she wonders why he is such a good actor.
Sophisticated though she is, Zola was deceived?
However, Kevin acts like nothing has happened. Everything has to wait until Lora wakes up.
âTomorrow is the weekend. Do you want to hang out somewhere?â
Sunny is pleasantly surprised. âReally?â
âNo.â
...
Kevin is secretly delighted. He has prepared a surprise for her. When the time comes, he will tease her.
âSee you tomorrow at four oâclock in the small park.â
A gentle breeze blows over and strokes Sunnyâs face, but her powder doesnât fall off. Admiring the lovers on the road, Sunny looks into the distance, her eyes carrying a hint of anxiety and expectation. Then she checks her watch, takes out her phone and makes a call.
âKevin, youâre going too far. You promised to come at four oâclock. Look what time it is.â
Sunny pouts, her round and big eyes revealing her dissatisfaction.
However, she is even more annoyed by his next words.
âSorry, Sunny. Something came up at the company. I canât come this time. Rain check?â
Sunny rolls her eyes irritably.
âScrew you, Kevin. Youâre not allowed to come to my bed tonight!â
Then she hangs up the phone.

âShe took it for real. So cute.â
âBoss, Miss Sunny seems to be angry. Shall we hurry up?â
Kevin reaches out to stop him.
âNo, slow down. The greater the disappointment, the better the surprise.â
Kevin closes his eyes in excitement, laughing despite himself.
On the other side, Sunny curses in a low voice the more she thinks about it.
âKevin, good for you. You actually stood me up! No sex for three days! Letâs see how you can hold it back! I will teach you a lesson!â
Sunny walks in anger, not paying attention to where she is going. She ends up in the woods of the park, which is a thrilling place.
âOh, my God. Isnât this a battlefield for lovers? I ... I should go.â
Sunny looks around and finds herself stepping on an abandoned object. She jumps in fright and throws up, but nothing comes out. Realizing that she may be in danger alone, Sunny wants to leave immediately.
However, after a few steps, she feels a sharp pain in the head, and then faints.
