--- song: Secret Love by Goo Hara(KARA) (a tribute to Siwan's ex-stalker-wife-candidate-in this chap, lol)     ---   'Sometimes I wonder how someone who had live her life being in love couldn't understand, I too wanted to be in such marriage with someone just as deserving, Why couldn't I?'   ---       "I'm sorry Sir, but Madam Im can't be reached for now. She is busy with..."   "Tell her I'm sick."    "But you're not..." The secretary raised her right eyebrow and gave a half-smile, making him felt like he had just said something stupid.   "Never mind." He began to turn away just to make sure she would shift her gaze back to her work before sprinting into the company's chairman, or rather, chairwoman's room- his mother's. He could hear the sound of the secretary panicking and calling for him, but he knew she wouldn't dare do anything. It's not like this is the first time. And besides, soon enough he would be the number one person in the company.   "Oh that's a good idea...oh, I'll call you back later okay, Mrs. Nam." She ended the phonecall and frowned at him.   "Who's that? My so-called future mother-in-law? No way, mother." He straightened his posture and crossed his arms, trying to appear strong to show her how firm his decision is.   "Why not? And who gave you the permission to barge in, I told Hyunjoo that I'm busy."   "Busy what? Preparing for a wedding? No mother, do you know that creepy chick is planning to take over our business?" He felt good after letting out the conclusion he made after the short date with his newest wife candidate. Proud in fact, that he had uncovered a crucial information about the seemingly dangerous woman he barely knew to his mother. How could she be so careless to even consider that girl? How come she always manage to choose the worst of girls for him?   She finally broke off her silence and held her firm gaze onto her son's face. "Isn't that better? What's wrong with that? At least I can be sure your father's hard work is being taken care of properly by a capable daughter-in-law."   Siwan couldn't believe his ears. What did he just heard? That his mother was not in the least worried of losing the company to the sly fox? This wasn't the mother he had knew and loved since birth. His mother loved the company more than anything, because it's the only thing her husband left behind with his death. All his life he had been too busy with the company to spend much of his precious time for his wife and son to remember much of anything else about him even though he was a good man. The business is their strongest connection as sad as it sound. At least there's something to keep their bond alive. And he knew she cherished it.   'And now she wanted to let that take it away? What happened?'   "Mother, did something bad happen that I didn't know?" He wanted to go forward and reach for the woman's arm, to comfort her if there really was something bad happening that he wasn't aware of. Guilt started to wash him off his courage though, and he remained stoned at the other side of the table, where he stood earlier. Did he hurt her, he asked himself.   "Nothing. I don't want you be too tired to manage the whole company alone. And she seemed capable of running her father's company well. So I thought..." She paused, and Siwan waited for continuation but then he realized maybe she wanted him to understand without using any words.   "Mother, I can manage. I might be slow but I'm learning everyday. I'll work hard to not disappoint you."   "But the thing is...there's not much time left! You're going to be twenty six soon and yet you're still a student, and you're not even married or have any girlfriend. You remember what I told you before ab
