She felt that she should not be an irresponsible wife for causing the trouble after she met his superior that day. Choi Sang-Eun asked him how did he know her. He told her that he met her in his court for couple of times.

Jung Ji-Ho wanted to stick with his old contract whereby she came by on Monday, Wednesday and Friday. Choi Sang-Eun told him that Kang Hae-Jin also wanted her to work with him for 3 days as well, but they have not decided which date to choose from. He asked her to invite him to discuss about their schedule together. Kang Hae-Jin agreed with his schedule if he can take care of his cat during her meeting with him.

Kang Hae-Jin carried Choi Sang-Eun and planned to let her sleep at his place. Jung Ji-Ho stopped him and asked him to take her to his house instead. Both of them waited for her to wake up before Kang Hae-Jin left for work.

The next day, Jung Ji-Ho asked her to arrange someone to put all the things back in original states. Choi Sang-Eun arranged to clear all the stuffs in his house. Choi Sang-Eun wondered why he react in such a way. He simply explained that he wanted them to clear as quick as possible, except for the dressing room.

Choi Sang-Eun kept thinking about the kiss and she felt embarrassed to face Jung Ji-Ho. She asked him about what happened that night. He told her that nothing was happened. She did not believe him but she felt uncomfortable to talk to him. He mentioned about the changes in his dressing made his reputation better.

With his permission, she answered the call briefly. Jung Ji-Ho wondered that does Choi Sang-Eun has feeling for him or was it just part of her job.

As Choi Sang-Eun was unable to get her answer, she decided to put a prank on Jung Ji-Ho. She purposely chose the color of tie that was too outstanding for him to wear during his work. He also approached his colleague and offered to eat with him. As his colleagues spoke casually about his tie was too outstanding and not suitable for work, he became furious and asked them to re-do their report. Kang Hae-Jin brought Choi Sang-Eun to ride a horse and also drive a yacht. She felt comfortable around him rather than Jung Ji-Ho.

On his way home, he saw a shop that sold ties. He bought all the colors. Choi Sang-Eun also bought the same tie for him from the same shop. However, she was reluctant to give him when she saw the same tie. She gave it to Kang Hae-Jin instead.

The next day, Jung Ji-Ho saw a live video from Kang Hae-Jin about the tie that given by his wife-to-be. Jung Ji-Ho was extremely jealous and called Choi Sang-Eun to come over his workplace. He simply gave a reason just to make her come. Choi Sang-Eun went to the court and watched how he worked as a judge. She was fascinated with his looks.

While they were on the way home, Kang Hae-Jin gave Choi Sang-Eun a call. He just received a trophy for the best actor award. He wanted to meet her a few minutes. He felt that the tie was his lucky charm. Choi Sang-Eun turned down his offer. Jung Ji-Ho asked as if she gave him the tie. She explained briefly and she wanted to speak with Jung Ji-Ho at his house.

The CEO sent his men to talk to Choi Sang-Eun. He wanted her to leave the country for good. However, she did not want to. She had a bad mood and wanted to meet with Jung Ji-Ho. Not as a client but as a friend instead. Jung Ji-Ho told Choi Sang-Eun that he remembered everything on that night. He also told her not to leave the country. Since Jung Ji-Ho’s boss kept inviting him to attend social events, he has no choice but to ask her for help even if she has to work on Sunday.

After the incident, Choi Sang-Eun worried that her career might ruined her relationship. She told Jung Ji-Ho about her concern. Jung Ji-Ho expressed that he did not bother what others think about her. What he cares the most was her.

She also watched him at home. Jung Ji-Ho talked to her in private. He expressed that he knew she was her mother and he wanted to improve their relationship.

Jung Ji-Ho met Yoo Mi-Ho for the second in private. He hoped that she can apologized to Choi Sang-Eun in person and also admit that she was her mother. Yoo Mi-Ho turned down the offer as she felt guilty towards Choi Sang-Eun. She wished Choi Sang-Eun can hate her.

Choi Sang-Eun worried about Kang Hae-Jin. She gave him a call but he did not pick up. She came to his house to visit him. Choi Sang-Eun wondered what made him change his mind to leave his career as an actor. He told her not to bother about his life. Kang Hae-Jin also terminated his contract with Woo Gwang-Nam and offered him some compensation. Woo Gwang-Nam did not want to accept it.  Kang Hae-Jin’s manager offered Woo Gwang-Nam to be an artist since he is good at singing. Woo Gwang-Nam turned down the offer as he decided to leave South Korea.

Choi Sang-Eun learned from Woo Gwang-Nam on how to do household core. She wanted to be a good wife for Jung Ji-Ho. Yoo Mi-Ho saw from the behind and taught her the proper way to do it. Woo Gwang-Nam wondered why she always interrupted them.

Jung Ji-Ho asked Choi Sang-Eun’s opinion towards Yoo Mi-Ho. She told him that although she hated her, she did not want to her get hurt. Choi Sang-Eun was looking for a job and asked his opinion. He asked her what she wanted to do and what makes her happy. She claimed that she wanted to help people and that’s make people happy. He then arranged a dinner for Choi Sang-Eun and Yoo Mi-Ho.

Jung Ji-Ho has no idea why Choi Sang-Eun angry with him. The next day, he invited her to join golfing with his superior. He waited for her to come but she did not show up. His superior knew about it. he asked his wife to teach him how to win his wife. Choi Sang-Eun came in late. She wondered where did everyone go. Then, she saw Jung Ji-Ho stood in front of her. Jung Ji-Ho told her the reason why he met up with his ex-wife. Choi Sang-Eun also accepted his apology. He asked her to stay at his house for a night.

Yoo Mi-Ho was extremely worried about Choi Sang-Eun who came home late. She waited for her for the whole night. She scolded her for not giving her a call. Kang Hae-Jin found out that his brother was trying to find the evidence against Ina Group. He arranged his men to break into Choi Sang-Eun’s house to steal the evidence. Fortunately, Kang Hae-Jin managed to stop them. Yoo Mi-Ho was just arrived home and saw a mess in her house. She asked as if he also knew about her relationship with Choi Sang-Eun. She wished he could keep this secret from Choi Sang-Eun.

Jung Ji-Eun met up with Choi Sang-Eun. She told her that Jung Ji-Ho was going to risk his career to protect her and Yoo Mi-Ho. Even though Yoo Mi-Ho refused his help, he insisted to do it for the sake of Choi Sang-Eun. Choi Sang-Eun rushed to his office and told him what she felt about. She did not want him to suffer this alone.

Yoo Mi-Ho planned to leave Choi Sang-Eun’s house in secret. She was surprised when Choi Sang-Eun was sitting there waiting for her. She told her that she already knew that she was her mother. She hoped that she did nothing and continue to stay here. She wanted to call her “mom”, but she felt awkward for doing that. Yoo Mi-Ho was touched and cried in sadness.

The next day, Choi Sang-Eun visited Kang Hae-Jin. She told him not to worry about her and she has her own way to solve the issue. She asked him to give her a pass to enter his father’s office. Kang Hae-Jin gave her the employee pass and she successfully entered the office. She went to the meeting room and revealed the ugly truth of Kang Hae-Jin’s brother. Kang Hae-Jin’s brother was then kicked out of the office.

Choi Sang-Eun felt ashamed to face Jung Ji-Ho. She left him without a word. Jung Ji-Ho was sad and he did not know what to do. After consulting with his superior’s wife, he decided to wait for her. In the meantime, he also learnt how to drink from Kang Hae-Jin and Jung Ji-Eun. Choi Sang-Eun’s life was upside down. After Yoo Mi-Ho talked to her, she decided not to let go of Jung Ji-Ho.

Choi Sang-Eun also looked for a chance to speak to Kang Hae-Jin’s mother. She persuaded her to allow him to do what he really likes. She did not want him to follow her footstep. After listening to Choi Sang-Eun, his mother asked Kang Hae-Jin directly what he really want to do. All she wants was to make her son happy.

Kang Hae-Jin came back as an actor again. He wished to become a director one day. Woo Gwang-Nam has been convinced by his manager to become an artist. All his family members were happy for him.
