The mystery

Ani and Yun arrived at the house. The house has marvelous construction. She entered the house climbing a few stairs and then walked through the entrance. Inside the house, she saw Yun's mother telling something to the housemaid.

"Mom," said Yun with a smile. Jinsil turned to look and with a wide smile on her lips, she called Ani's and Yun's names. She walked towards Ani and hugged her tightly.

"My daughter has grown so much. We missed you so much," stated Jinsil and caressed her head.

"Aunty I miss you too," said Ani. Jinsil pulled away from her and with her hand on Ani's back, she took her towards the living room. The housemaid came and took Ani's luggage to her room.

"Aunty, there are so many items you've prepared for me. How will I eat these all?" asked Ani.

"Look at yourself. You look like a starving kid so you've to eat everything today," asserted Jinsil and put the food on a plate for Ani.

"Mom has forgotten about her son," Yun pronounced, making a pouted face who was standing beside the couch.

"You've already eaten so much. Now go to your room. I have to talk so with Ani," said Jinsil and then turned her head to Ani. Ani smiled looking at him. She gestured to Yun to sat beside her and he did so. They talked for a while when Ani spoke, "Aunty, I've to go to the office. They will tell me about my post today."

"Ah okay. Then you should get ready. Yun has to go there too so you can go with him," said Jinsil and then show Ani her room. She looked around the room. "It's beautiful aunty," said Ani and thanked her.

"Ani, you won't say thanks to any of us else we are going to be angry," said Jinsil. Ani smiled hearing this. "Okay then you should get ready," said Jinsil and walked away from there. Ani opened one of the suitcases and took out a formal dress. She walked inside the washroom and after freshening up she got ready for the office. She picked her phone and bag, walked out of the room.

"Let's go," said Ani, looking at Yun who was texting someone on the phone. He got up from the chair in the living room and they left for the office. After reaching the office Yun told her that he will call her in the evening. Ani nodded and went to the HR department. The lady there told her that she will be the assistant of the Food manager of the company whose office is on the fifth floor. Ani thanked her and walked away from there.

Arriving at the manager's office she knocked at the door lightly and then pushed it to ask him if she can come in. The man inside told her to get in.

"Good morning sir. I'm Cha Ani, your new assistant." She looked at him who was standing with his back towards her. He was talking on his phone about some meeting and after hanging up the call he turned to her.

"Miss Cha, I'm Soon Ji Won, the manager of the food department here. I was informed about you by the head office. Here, in this office, you've not that much workload as it was in Seoul's head office. The HR must've provided you with your things which are used only for the work," said Soon Ji and kept on explaining the things.

Ani nodded to whatever he was telling her. He told her that he is going for the inspection so she has to accompany him.

They reached the restaurant. Soon Ji was checking all the new recipes and Ani was jotting down every detail of the inspection. "Ms. Cha you must know that in my absence you have to ensure the inspection after every 3 days," said Soon Ji. They were done with the inspection. After that, they had their lunch in the restaurant and left for the office.

In the car, Soon Ji told Ani about his next day's schedule. He told her that she has to prepare the things beforehand. Ani carefully listened to him and jotted down the important things in her notepad.

Jun was discussing the project's second phase with his team. The technical team was done with the app development along with other online services which will be given by Sangma. The restaurants which will be included in the list have already given their consent to trade under the name of Sangma.

Jun told Wol Sook to make some minor changes in the recipes that are included in the project. After discussing the things for an hour he left back to his office. "Soo," Jun said in a low voice when he saw Soo was on the sofa. Soo turned to him and said, "I've something to talk about."

Jun closed the door behind him and sat opposite to him. "Are you good?" asked Jun looking at Soo's face.

"Yeah. Thanks for dropping Ani to Daegu," Soo expressed his gratitude.

"Not mention this. Tell me about yourself. Your marriage is the day after tomorrow," said Jun.

"Hmm. We decided that we will find the evidence against my father and then we will separate our ways," stated Soo.

"Don't think about divorce now. One more thing, I don't think your father will hide the evidence in the home. I have planned something so let me handle everything," said Jun.

"What do you mean?" asked Soo with a worried expression on his face.

"Ahh, well I will look into uncle Sungi's murder which was portrayed as the accident," said Jun.

"Did you tell Ani?" asked Ani.

"There's no need to involve her. Let's for now keep these things among you, Tae, and me," said Jun. Soo got worried hearing this. "I'm afraid of my father. He can do anything. I mean…..he killed…," muttered Soo.

"Relax, Soo. I am assuring you no one will be harmed. Just take care of yourself. Don't be harsh on yourself," remarked Jun with a smile.

"Uncle Sungi always used to praise you. Now I know why he liked you so much," proclaimed Soo and smiled.

"He inspired me a lot. Well, I'm here because of him only. His dreams, aspirations I remember every single thing he used to tell me. He always used to tell me if I will ever think of working here then he will be more than happy. Ahh….but it's fine. Good things always come with a price. So, Soo you just have to focus on your work and the rest of things I will handle….." said Jun and smiled.

"Thanks, Jun. I was terrified yesterday when Ani came home. Thanks for handling everything on time. You already recommended her name for the project which made my father not fire her. I thought he was being generous. But then-Secretary Wang told me that the project has Ani's name so my father wasn't able to fire her," said Soo.

"Hmm….I want to see her as the chairman of this company," said Jun with a smile.

"Oh really? Even I want the same," stated Soo with a smile looking at Jun.

"But then your sister is naive. I gave her a nice lecture so that she can grow up. Let's see how she will transform herself," declared Jun.

Soo smiled hearing this. "Indeed she's naive but she is stronger than us," said Soo. Jun looked at him and smiled. After talking for a while Soo left Jun's office. Jun then called Yun. After 4-5 rings, Yun answered the call and happily took Jun's name.

"This is the first time we are actually talking on the phone. I'm happy," said Yun.

"Let's come to the point," replied Jun, ignoring Yun's words. "I'm sending the contact of my friend to you. He's working in Daegu Metropolitan police. He will help you investigate the accident case," said Jun.

"Okay. When will you come?" asked Yun excitedly.

"I don't think I should tell you this. I will try my best to call her back to Seoul. Let's see what happens. Okay, then I'm hanging up," said Jun and hung up the call. Yun looked at his phone and shook his head in disbelief. "Why is he so cold?" murmured Yun and put his phone aside on the desk.
