Ji Hyo ran frantically after she received a call from the teacher at Jae Jin's kindergarten saying that Jae Jin went missing from the school and they couldn't find him anywhere. Her tears were threatening to spill, but she kept her composure intact. It was not the time to be whiny or weak as her precious son might be in hot water. 

She left her workplace and dashed to the kindergarten like a mad woman. She ignored all the stares and glares from people around as her mind was too busy thinking about her beloved son. She prayed hard that he would be fine.

Ji Hyo's stopped dead in her track when she saw a man who was carrying a boy who looked a lot like Jae Jin. Without wasting time, she dashed toward the muscle man and stopped him. She was overwhelmed with mixed emotions as she realized that the boy in the man's arms was indeed her little boy, Jae Jin.

Without warning, she grabbed Jae Jin from the man and hugged him tightly. The muscle man was too shocked to react to the woman's act and just stood there watching as she gave the boy a bone-crushing hug.

Ji Hyo put the boy down and once more, without thinking much, gave the muscle man a bone-crushing hug while her tears flowed freely like running water. The man, still in a daze after getting slapped, now felt in cloud nine by the woman's hug. He caressed her back to comfort her and returned her hug in a friendly manner. 

'I'm sorry. I'm sorry. And thank you for saving my life. Thank you!'

Jong Kook thought he heard wrong that he had saved the woman's life, but then he understood what she meant. The boy was not just a son for her; he was her life! He was grateful that he went to watch the boy at the playground today, a routine that he had been repeating ever since knowing about the child's existence from the past four months. He was glad that he was at the right place at the right time and thus, was able
