Sun ri's face turns pale

Shin Min asks Kim

"why did she met Mr.Alex"

Kim:"Actually the gaming version that Ms.Ri has developed for our company is a threat for their exisiting gaming version.They are the leaders in this arena.once our marketing gets successful,they are going to loose that place"

Shin Min:'Really?"

Jong soo:"Why did she meet Mr.Alex for that?"

Kim:'May be she has done background check about the developer and found it ti be Mr.Alex.She had plans of bribing him to either work for her or work against Mr.Joo won"

Shin Min:"yeah she seems to be a cunning woman,doesn't she know there is a word called loyalty.One should always be loyal to their boss.how could she think of buying people's loyalty"

Sun ri gets up

Shin Min:'What's wrong madam"

Sun ri:"Actually,I have a headache,so I think I should leave for home"

Alex:'Should I get you some medicines"

Sun ri:"No I would be fine,I just need to go and sleep"

Jong soo accompanies her till she takes a taxi

Shin Min(thinks)

'what's wrong with her"

Alex:"I hope she will be fine,you guys enjoy the dinner"

They enjoy the dinner together

Sun ri while in the taxi

Hears sounds of people calling her name

Glimpses of her working days

She feels suffocated

She reaches her home

This time while walking inside,she remembers Joo won's words

"lock the door,however tired you may be,you should lock the door"

Sun ri locks the door

Sits on the couch and falls sleep

Shin Min and kim goes out for a walk after the dinner

Sits beside eachother gasping for breathe

Jong soo:"Next time atleast be honest with the kind of things that happen around you"
