That night, her eyes wouldn't allow her to fall asleep. She kept tossing and turning on bed, yet there's an unsettled feeling that grew stronger in her heart. A heavy sigh escaped from as she stared blankly at the ceiling of her room while listening to the 'loud argument' that was cluttering her mind. After hours of trying to doze off, Ji Hyo decided to get up and turn on her laptop to check out her email. It was almost 3am, but she hasn't felt like returning to her bed and have a good rest.

As she scanned through her meeting calendar, Ji Hyo came to a realization. Since she took back the President's seat from Woo Bin, she hardly had time for herself. From morning till night, all she did was attending to her work and just once in a while going for her routine check up at the hospital.
