Hongbin took out the divorce form from the brown envelope. He look at this form before he jumped out of his bed. Grab his phone and dial Hyewon's number. 

"Your number you have dial is out of location. Please try again later."

He jaw dropped off when hear the operator. He try to call another number of his wife but still same.

"Where are you Hyewon?"

Hongbin rushed to go to his house. He drove over speed event on the red light of traffic light he doesn't care. He hear his phone rings. Minji's name on the screen but he ignore the call.
