The surroundings were so chaotic and dazzling that she couldn’t afford to feel overwhelmed.
But as she got into the taxi and handed the driver a piece of paper with an address written on it, she managed a faint smile.
She had no one she knew, and fear took precedence, but she could overcome it.
Because she had a reliable companion with her.
Her hand rested on her flat lower abdomen.
She must be delighted.
She must be happy.
She’ll embrace us, just endure a little longer.
“Where are you from? I’m Kapur, nice to meet you,” asked the driver with a patchy complexion.
“I’m Yun. I came from Korea, Seoul.”
“Ah, Seoul! I’ve never been there, but I heard it’s a fantastic place. Hmm, you look young, are you a student? A tourist?”
“Neither, really. I… Will it take long to get to that address?”
“Unfortunately, nobody can predict New York’s roads.”
“Alright, I understand. But, um… Could you lower the window a bit?”
As the window slid down, Eun Jo exhaled the stifled breath and inhaled the fresh air.
In truth, her stomach had started to twist again due to the smell of the gum the driver was chewing.
After taking several deep breaths, she massaged her heavy legs instead of looking out the window.
Confined in a narrow and cramped space, she was swollen all over from the long flight.
She felt dizzy, and even though she hadn’t eaten anything, her stomach felt incredibly queasy.
It had been the same on the plane.
While others enjoyed the in-flight meals, she was confined to the narrow restroom, battling nausea.
Yoon Eun Jo’s life, even at the age of twenty-three, was an unexpected twist she could never have imagined. It was a long and challenging journey.
But whenever she felt overwhelmed and on the verge of losing her mind, she recalled the doctor’s words.
“The baby’s heart is beating regularly. It’s strong.”
In the ultrasound image, a small and precious life was confidently announcing its existence.
Eun Jo still found it amazing as she gently touched her belly, where this little life resided.
Where should she start with the conversation?
He was once a man more tender than anyone in the world, but the last time he turned his back on her,
When she recalled those cold eyes, her growing trust honestly retreated silently.
Anyway, we’ve come this far. It may be a bit late, but nothing has changed.
It won’t change. He’ll embrace us affectionately like before.
After unpacking her belongings in the shabby lodgings, she headed straight to the Black Stone Partners building.
It had only been three hours since she arrived in New York.
Her heart swelled with hope that she might meet someone who could provide Kwon Jae Ha’s contact or whereabouts.
However, the lobby of the glamorous building and the front desk staff had a different perspective.
“Sorry, we can’t provide Mr. Alexis’ contact or location without proper authorization.”
“I came from Korea. My name is ‘Yoon Eun Jo.’ Just let him know I’m here. Please, I beg you. It’s very important! I’m… I’m his very close friend.”
“Are you really his friend? I know he was in Korea not too long ago.”
The black woman’s pupils wavered.
“Yes, a friend. I have a very important reason to meet him.”
Eun Jo didn’t even realize tears had welled up in her eyes.
The woman, shaking her head, seemed to be writing something on a notepad, and it looked blurry to Eun Jo.
“If you say you’re a friend, did you come without him knowing? He’s here, but I can’t guarantee you can meet him. This is the best I can do. Here, take it. Go straight from the main entrance, and when you see an intersection, you’ll also see the hotel.”
Boissier Hotel.
A modern and elegant French-style building, 1st-floor lobby.
Eun Jo, looking bewildered and knowing she couldn’t get past the VIP-only elevator without an invitation, stood there with tears welling up in her eyes once more.
At that moment, when she felt helpless and her tears were cold on her cheeks,
“Who’s this? Yoon Eun Jo?? Wow!”
Wang Nana appeared.
Emergency room at St. Rosevelt Hospital in New York, USA.
Choi Sun Woo, an emergency medicine resident, was examining the condition of a boy who had been brought in after falling from a bicycle.
He was the only resident who could put the dislocated shoulder joint back in place.
“It might hurt a bit. One, two, three!”
“Ouch!”
The boy let out a short cry, but soon his face relaxed.
“Wasn’t too bad, was it? You were lucky this time, but you should be more careful in the future.”
When he finished attending to the boy, whose condition was not serious, he noticed a woman coming in with a stretcher.
“We have a traffic accident victim! Temperature is 36.6, heart rate 110 beats per minute, blood pressure 82, in a tachypnea state that could lead to shock, and…”
The paramedic, pointing at the woman’s skirt, which had been stained red, and even the seat, shook his head while showing the situation firsthand.
“She started bleeding. Maybe because of the shock,” he spoke in a low voice, as if considering the patient’s condition.
“And she doesn’t have her wallet or phone.”
Sun Woo quickly assessed the patient’s condition.
“Pupil reflex seems normal.”
“Hey, don’t worry, there’s no need to be scared. What’s your name?”
“…Fortunately, the car that hit me was turning the corner, so it was almost stationary.”
“I don’t see any other bleeding for now. We should take an X-ray to check for possible fractures. And…”
“…Leave me alone. Let me die… Just leave me alone.”
It was Korean!
Sun Woo heard that too well, that small and fragile sound.
Her eyes, directed at the ceiling, were vacant, and her feeble voice clearly desired death.
But she was too young to wish for death.

It was thought that only the most powerful and talented noble lady in Feng Ling City would be worthy of such a brilliant young man. Who knew that this young gentleman would secretly admire the infamous Seventh Princess?
Short scene 1:
Feng Bai Su looked at the young man crying like a pear blossom in the rain before her, and couldn’t help but doubt her life.
Wasn’t the male lead described as a cold and otherworldly figure in the book?
Then who was this poor little thing crying with swollen red eyes and tear-stained face?
Short scene 2:
Wei Jing Mo stared intently at Feng Bai Su who was about to go out, wanting to say, “Be careful on the road.”
Before he could speak, Feng Bai Su suddenly bent down and bit his cheek.
Her peach blossom eyes were full of disdain: “Tsk! You’re so clingy!”
Wei Jing Mo: “…”
