-Here it is. -Oh!
USB.
Is someone here?
Ms. Lee!
Ihyun.
How did you get inside?
I, uh...
Did you bring Sowon again?
Why did you come here?
Shall we go out?
Wait...
I came to take our clothes.
Take them and get out. Don't ever come back.
Okay.
How's Grandmother?
Not good.
Take good care of her. Call me when she gets up.
Okay.
See you.
How did it go?
The inauguration is next Wednesday at 11 a.m. at the auditorium.
Congratulations, Ms. CEO.
Thank you. You're the first person to congratulate me.
Work hard as my secretary at the CEO office.
Yes. I'll work hard.
We found it.
Good.
Are you alright, Sukhyun?
Yes, I'm fine.
Thank you. We found it thanks to you, Ms. Chair.
What will you do now? Only a few days left till the inauguration.
Let's discuss what to do with this USB.
-Sowon, tell Mom that you found the USB. -Okay.
The number you have reached is unavailable.
Her phone's turned off.
I wonder what VP Shin would do to you. Maybe we should get rid of you forever.
Why? Did she tell you to kill me as if this isn't enough?
She might give me a bigger award then.
You naive or foolish?
You think she'll give you what you want? When that'll make her an accomplice?
I'm sure she'll never reward you for kidnapping me.
Oh yeah?
Want to find out now?
When could I start working at the Pusan store?
Pusan store? What are you talking about?
Don't ever text me again.
-This little... -Why? I'm right?
-She used you, right? -Shut up.
You stabbed me in the back, Haeran?
It's my grandaunt.
Yes, Grandma. Why doesn't Mom answer the phone?
What are you talking about? She didn't come and I can't reach her so I called.
Huh? She didn't go there?
The restaurant owner here is asking when your mother will come here.
Okay, Grandma. I'll call you back.
What happened?
Mom didn't go to Youngwol.
What's wrong?
Nothing. I need to check something. Call Mother again.
Ji.
What nuisance...
She's not answering.
Did you come to congratulate me? You should've knocked then.
What did you do to Sowon's mother?
What are you talking about?
I was so anxious she might blow the horn to the media. What about Jeongsook?
If you did something to her, you made a big mistake.
You're the one who's making a mistake.
If I didn't do anything to her, how will you face me later?
Ji?
Are you with Sowon's mother?
I reckon you are since you're silent.
What do you want?
If you hurt her one bit, you'll regret.
-Threatening me? -We have the USB.
Ha! Impossible.
I can even send your recorded voice now.
Before you regret later, you better not do anything rash.
Hello? Hello?
Could he really have the USB?
Don't live a bad life anymore. You want to be used and dumped by Haeran?
Do you think Ji really has my mom?
If he is, he'll call.
It's him.
Hello?
-Let's meet. -I need to confirm Mother's voice first.
I need to check if you really have the USB. Let's meet.
-Alright. Where shall we meet? -At Dawon restaurant.
Finally the CEO inauguration is in a few days.
Congratulations. But it's too bad Sukhyun can't come.
I should give up since he never leaves his grandma.
What will you wear on the inauguration day? We should match the dress code.
Okay, let's discuss.
How about going shopping together tomorrow? I'll gift you a nice suit.
Really? Then I can't just sit and accept. I'll gift yours then.
You bastard!
I'm tired from a long trip. Let's sit down since it'll be a long talk.
You sure my mom is safe?
You really have the USB?
No other choice then. What now?
Enough.
There's no other USB, right?
No.
-Yes, boss. -It's me. Let me talk to Jeongsook.
Answer the phone.
Mom.
Sowon.
Don't worry about me. I'm fine.
-Mom. You sure you're all right? -Yes, I'm fine. Calm down.
-Mom... So sorry. Because of me. -Don't cry, Sowon. I'm okay.
Where are you, Mom?
So...
Somewhere nice in Kangwondo.
I'll never forgive you if you hurt my mom.
Let's exchange.
I need the USB and you need Jeongsook Lee. We'll just change these two.
Alright. Bring her right now.
I can't.
Why not!
Let's meet again after VP Shin finishes her fantastic inauguration.
Bigger the joy, bigger the despair.
It'll be more fun to watch her fall after her climb to the top.
What?You'll keep my mom a hostage until then?
Let my mom go. Let her go!
-Calm down. -Calm down, Sowon.
Let's make one thing clear.
The person that asked me to make sure Jeongsook doesn't show up...
It is Haeran Shin. Your birth mother.
I almost became a murderer because of that woman.
Murderer?
Then...
I've insisted I can't kill her since I know your mom.
So thank me and let's go our own way after VP Shin's inauguration.
If you do anything rash, remember you might never see Jeongsook again.
You remember this too. If you hurt her one bit, I'm taking the USB to police.
Alright. I'll keep her like a queen until then.
Oh, one thing. I have no intention to go down to Kangwondo.
So don't even think about putting a tail on me.
If you keep your promise, I'll make sure Jeongsook is safe.
No!
I can't let my mom stay with that bastard. I need to bring my mom right now!
Calm down. He won't let her go now.
But I'm sure he won't hurt her because of the USB.
I'll do something before the inauguration. Trust me.
Yes. I'll help too.
How... How...
How could she do this...to someone who's raised her own daughter?
How... How could she do this?
Sowon, try this. I brought it for you.
Your grandaunt called from Youngwol.
What happened to your mom?
Call me right away when you hear from her.
-Hi. -Hi.
Please feed her some porridge.
Okay.
You need to regain energy to find Mother.
This can't work. I need to go find her.
Did he say somewhere in Kangwondo?
Where could it be? Near Youngwol?
It's not Kangwondo.
He came to the restaurant in one hour after the call.
He can't possibly come from Kangwondo in one hour.
Mother's in Seoul.
Seoul?
Do you remember hearing some sound during the call with Mother?
Yes. Voice of some man singing.
It's the sound of azan.
Azan? What's azan?
The sound of worship service at an Islam temple.
-Then... -There's only one Islam temple in Seoul.
-Then could we find my mom? -Yes. Please eat this to find your mom.
-It could be around here? -I think so.
Mom.
I asked the detectives to search around here. They'll call when they find her.
But we can't go into each and every place.
I've asked them to locate Ji's car. I'm sure he parked his car around here.
How could you do this to me!
Don't blame me. Your friend ordered me to do this.
So why don't you blame your friend, Minja Shin? Got that?
Finally the CEO inauguration.
-You look great. -And yourself.
You'll attend the inauguration after the hair salon, right?
No, I have to stop by somewhere. See you at the inauguration.
Mother. It's finally my inauguration.
If you were healthy, I would never have seen this day.
Thanks to your illness... The moment I've dreamt of for 30 years has come true.
Mother, I beg you to stay in bed like this forever.
Why did you come here? What were you going to do to Grandma!
Mother, please get out.
You two really won't come to the inauguration?
Why would I go there?
I'll severe ties with you if you don't show up.
How could you call yourself a son if you can't share the joy on my happiest day?
Didn't you know we already severed ties with you when you abandoned Grandma?
Since you abandoned unconscious grandma!
You're not a family to Grandma, to me! Or Ihyun.
You're so...
Even a stranger would help a dying person.
So don't even dream of my blessings. You enjoy your happiest day by yourself.
You didn't go to work yet?
I took a day off.
Day off? Are you sick?
I know why. Today's Haeran's CEO inauguration.
Ihyun's a Vice CEO. I'm sure Sowon won't want to go there.
True.
Why isn't Ms. In-law coming back? Her phone was turned off too.
Should I ask Haeran to let your mom keep the restaurant?
I heard she went to look for a restaurant in Youngwol.
It's okay. I'm going out.
Didn't even go to work and her eyes look so hollow.
Wonder where she's been going for a few days now. I'm sure something's going on.
Gyunwoo was constantly out for a few days too.
-I wonder what he's doing with Jinhee. -With Mr. Kang?
I don't see his car. We've searched for a few days now.
Maybe we're wrong.
But we heard the sound when we spoke to your mom.
I'm sure it was this sound.
Then why can't we find him?
We must find her before we meet Ji to keep the USB.
You should go to work. I'll find him with Gyunwoo.
-Call me if you find her. -Okay.
When we're wandering around the street, that murderer...
...must be overjoyed with her inauguration.
Mom, where are you?
I will try my best for the CE Group's leap forward.
I'd appreciate all of your help. Thank you.
She gave the Vice CEO seat to her daughter?
Mother and daughter swallowing up the company.
From a tiny corner in Youngwol... You've come a long way, Haeran.
Congratulations.
What a surprise. Didn't expect that from you.
Enjoy while you can.
You got this seat by nailing your family's heart and by almost killing your friend.
But brace yourself.
You'll be the shortest lived CEO in the history of the CE Group.
So long.
-Bring me the list of contest finalists. -Yes, Ms. CEO.
I'll get rid of the easiest target; Sowon.
You just need to keep quiet for a few days.
I don't want to have to get rid of a dead body. Eat this please.
Filthy. Take it away.
If you're lucky, you can eat dinner with your family today.
Eat this and gain some energy, will you?
You'll let me go? What are you trying to do to the kids again?
-What are you doing here? -To receive your congratulations.
You see? I and my mother are ultimate winners.
This name plate will change soon. Since you'll be transferred to China soon.
What?
Should I give you a hint about our CEO's personnel appointments?
You'll be transferred to China and Sowon will be transferred to Pusan.
Should I give you a hint too?
Your mother will step down from her CEO seat soon.
So you won't save your neck either.
Yes, Sowon.
We found it.
-You found his car? -Yes, Gyunwoo went after him.
I'll be there soon so tell him to be calm. We can't lose him again.
I've waited here but no one's coming out.
-Did you check how many are inside? -I think Ji and one more.
Two men... Then we'll be fine in numbers.
Let's go in.
Make sure he can't access the car and keep watch at this door.
Okay.
Go stay in my car, Sowon. It's dangerous here.
No, my mom's inside. I'm going inside too.
You could get hurt.
She won't go.
Where's the owner of this car in front?
You can't park the car right in front of the entrance.
My car can't get out. Move your car.
-Mom, are you alright? -I'm okay.
How dare you!
Get out. Get out!
You know me. I'd never come here without the police.
We have the USB. You know what'd happen if you get caught.
Here goes the countdown. One. Two. Three.
Stop right there!
Mother.
-Mom, are you really okay? -Are you alright, Mother?
Where's Minja Shin?
Sorry.
I have no choice since you are with Jinhee.
Jeongsook.
Why? You think I'm a ghost?
Jeongsook...
You a human? You call yourself a human?
How could you do this as a human being? How could you do this to me?
I'll never forgive you.
I've never asked him to hurt you. It was his own action.
She should act like her mom for once.
I need to find a way to get out of this.
Jinhee has the USB? If Ms. Shin gets arrested, I can become the CEO.
