Mina escorted Kaycee to her apartment after her emotion was under control. Days passed Mina juggled looking after Kaycee to visit the clinic where the problem started. Eventually, it paid off, and she obtained the medical records and lawyer to begin pressing charges of medical malpractice.
“Song Geun-Hye, long time no see. How is work?”
Mina took a seat facing Geun-Hye at a coffee shop near her place of work at a busy TV station.
“You did not change a bit since we last saw each other; how is Kaycee? Are you two still keeping in touch?”
Geun-Hye's lips lifted in a humorous smile it soon disappeared when she saw the coldness in the eyes of Mina.
“This is why I am here Geun-Hye. I need your help to punish these people! They ruined Kaycee’s life. I cannot bear to watch her anymore. It is like she has become a ghost. She hardly talks and has become withdrawn.”
Mina passed a brown envelope to Geun-Hye and saw the other woman pull the flap open to check the contents inside.

Geun-Hye jotted on the black notepad on the table and took pictures of some documents. After she gets the information, Geun-Hye hands the envelope back to Mina, “Leave this to me. I will pass it on to my boss. Have her parents met with the doctor?”
“I did not contact her mother and father yet; I wanted to wait until the case builds up and the involved parties start to make a move,” said Mina in a tone that dripped with hatred.
“Do not wait too long; I will keep you posted; tell Kaycee I am sorry for all you had to face.”
Geun-Hye patted Mina sympathetically on the back before leaving. Mina is engrossed in deep thought.
When Kaycee missed her period after a visit to the doctor’s office for a pap smear, she dismissed it as stress-related; when the third month was around the corner. Her monthly visitor was strangely absent, and that was when Kaycee knew that it had gone beyond stress. Worried that something didn’t seem right, a trip to her local drug store and two lines on the absorbent stick from the pregnancy kit sent her world crashing down.
Jiho believed in the noblesse duty of showing kindness and being selfless by offering to be an anonymous sperm donor without prior knowledge of his ultra-conservative affluent family. All hell breaks loose when his identity is no longer a secret, thanks to medical misconduct.
