Inside the car Mr. Kim handed President Lee a report of what transpired in the company while he was away.
"Have you schedule the meeting with the land owners?" still looking at the report.
"Yes, President Lee. This Saturday at 9 in the morning."
"hmm, let's go straight to the company." He leans back on the car seat then closed his eyes.
"back to the company" Mr. Kim instructed the driver.

Sammie steps inside the West Rivercrest Condominium then proceed to the mail room to gather her bills before stepping in the elevator.
She opened her unit door and steps inside but she suddenly stops upon seeing a familiar figure in the living room.
"What are you doing here?" she is anxious and confused at the same time.
"I'm here to see you." He picks the keys from his pocket and showed it to her "You didn't change the locks."
"Sh*t, why didn't I changed them" she cursed in her mind. She regretted not changing the door lock as she had planned it several times but because of her busy schedule she didn't manage to do it.
"What do you want? Just say it and leave." She glared at him as she put her bag on the sofa.
"I…I'm sorry. It's my fault. I made a huge mistake. I should've trusted you more. I already discovered that Karen (Kyle's ex-girlfriend and her sister's best friend) framed you. She also told me the truth. I shouldn't have trusted that witch! I am really sorry. I know asking for your forgiveness is impossible." He walks toward her and hold her hands. "But please allow me to prove my sincerity and let me make it up to you." He looked at her eyes as he persuades her to give him a chance.
She released her hands from his hold and turns around. Her eyes are starting to tear up. She took a deep breath before responding.
"Kyle your apology is a year late? Besides I've already moved on. It's better this way. I just hope I would never see you again. Please leave." She responded calmly and walks toward the bedroom. Kyle took big strides and then hugs from behind.
"Sammie, I'm begging you. Please give me a chance. Just this once. Please don't let her succeed in tearing us apart. I know I'm such a fool for leaving you. I was deceived into believing that you cheated on me. I considered forgetting you by hating you but I was wrong. I can't let you go even if I believed you cheated on me what more now that I discovered the truth. Please give us a chance." He sounded so wretched.
She swallowed down a sob and wipe hear eyes free of tears. Those lines sound familiar to her. "Kyle, we can't return anymore. It's over. Please just let go. I don't love you anymore."
Stunned, Kyle paused for a few seconds. "don't love me anymore? … Is there someone else?" he asked calmly
"Yes" She wanted to be honest but at the same time she wants him to leave and not to bother her again so she lied.
After a long while he released her and walks toward the door but before stepping out he turns around and gazed at her. "I don't believe that you no longer have feelings for me. I'll make you realize that I still occupy a huge space in your heart." Then he left.
Inside the bedroom she sat on her vanity chair and started crying. She still remembers that night in the Light Road Park. They had an argument that day and she can't contact him then suddenly she received a text message from Kyle asking her to meet up. After reading the message she hurriedly proceed to the park but when she arrived a man suddenly hugged her and positioned himself as if he was kissing her. He pushed him away and run off. Little did she know her nightmare began.
When she steps inside her car she was shaking. She tried calling Kyle but he continues rejecting his call. She drove back to her Condo and when she came inside the unit she saw Kyle. He was fuming while holding his phone. He furiously looked at her.
"Where have you been!?" he shouted.
"I…I went to the park coz you asked me to meet up there." She was startled.
"I did? When?" no longer shouting but his voice was overbearing.
"Tonight. Here is my phone. You texted me." Picks her phone up and pass it to him
He took the phone and scrolled over her messages then he stops on the last text from an unregistered number. [ meet me up at Light Road Park, 7 pm –Kyle] he checked the time the message was sent. Its past 6 pm. He was in a meeting at that time and his phone's battery is out. The meeting ended fifteen minutes before seven. He was only able to charge his phone when he steps into his car. He went straight to her place so they could talk and sort their misunderstanding. After he parked the car he turned his phone on. As he steps out of the car his phone beeps, it was an anonymous email. When he opened the attachment his brows furrowed as he clenched his fist.
"I didn't sent this message!" staring at her with eyes full of rage.
"What?" she exclaimed as she grabs her phone back. She was so worried about him. thus when she read the message she didn't bother checking the senders name. That park had always been their meeting place so when she received the text she instantly knew that the text came from him.
"I… I thought it was you. I was worried sick for you all day since I can't get a hold of you. Your phone is off so when I received that message I immediately proceeded to the park and also that place has always been our meeting spot." She tried her best explaining.
"Really? then what are these? He showed the pictures from his phone. She snatches the phone from his hand and investigated the pictures. The park was well lit even though it's already nigh time. At first glance you can tell that it was her in the photo not to mention the clothes she was wearing was the same. She stiffened as she looks at the photo. The first picture is her hugging a man. She then swipes the screen and saw another one. From the angle in which the photo was taken it's her kissing a man on the park. It seems like a bucket full of ice was splash all over her body. She couldn't utter a word; She felt like something is stuck on her throat. She started to tear up.
"I can explain. It's not what you think it is. I was…"
