A-Yeong had a pensive look on her face as she pondered about the situation she was in. She had not been able to have a wink of sleep for days. She was in a tight corner, and she didn't know how to get out of it. If only Hei-Ran hadn't made things so difficult for her.

She flinched when she heard her phone ring, and her heart skipped in fear when she saw the name of the caller.

Should she receive the call or ignore it? She dare not. A lot would be at stake if she ignored it. She swallowed as her fidgeting hands slowly reached for the phone and accepted the call.

"He--llo" She trembled.

"Why do you sound scared?" A low and lazy voice came sounding from the other side of the phone, and it made chills run down her spine, so much she couldn't respond to the question. That voice always made her sweat and tremble.

"I heard you lost your position." Of course, he'd know. She swallowed and nodded her head.

"Yes." She replied while he tsked.

"You sure do know how to waste efforts." He sighed. "Anyway, that's your problem. When are you delivering my goods?" The voice asked.

"Soo--on." She stuttered while he tsked again.

"Soon isn't the word I like to hear. You should be more specific."

"I'll get it done before the required date." She said.

"Well, you should. I know you know what's at stake if you fail me. I might just hurt-"

"I'll get it done." She spluttered out. "Please don't do anything. I'll get it done, I promise." She assured him, even though she had no idea how to go about it.

She heard him sigh. "You know I hate being disappointed, but I trust you'll do fine, Su A-Yeong." He said, but she could hear the smile in his voice.

"I...I won't disappoint."

"Good girl. Say hello to that cousin of yours." He said and disconnected the call. A-Yeong hands quivered as she removed the phone from her ears.

What was she to do? She couldn't afford to delay; that would be dangerous. Her entire body shook with trepidation as she thought about what might happen if she failed.

Why did her grandfather have to take the company away from her at a time like this? What was he thinking?

She sunk into the chair as her brain swung into action to find a solution for her problem, but no matter how hard she tried, she couldn't come up with one. What was she to do? Perhaps, she could talk to Hei-Ran again? Would she listen? Would she help her? She'd kneel and beg if she had to because this wasn't just about her.

She picked up her phone and dialled a number to ask for Hei-Ran's location, and soon she got it.

She picked up her purse and phone and hurried out of the house. A-Yeong wasn't too surprised to find Hei-Ran working in the office. She had been sceptical Hei-Ran would grant her an audience, and she had come prepared, but Hei-Ran had surprised her by agreeing to see her.

She exhaled deeply before stepping into the office. Her eyes gazed around the room, and she felt nostalgic. This had been her office for six years.

"You like the changes I've made?" Hei-Ran asked with a taunting smile, making A-Yeong look at her. She looked like a true boss and like the chair was specifically made for her.

"You've always had a thing for white," A-Yeong said as she approached the desk. She glanced at Hei-Ran, who was closely observing her.

"I didn't expect you to show your face here after being kicked out in such an embarrassing way. What do you want now?" Hei-Ran tilted her head as she observed her.

A-Yeong also closely observed her. She deeply sighed and sat upright. "I want to ask for a favour." She said and paused.

"Go on." Hei-Ran urged with an indifferent tone.

"Can you help me clear out an incoming vessel?" She asked.

"Incoming vessel?" Hei-Ran muttered. "What's in it?" She inquired.

"I'm sorry I can't tell you."

"You can't." She tilted her head sideways.

"Hei-Ran, please help me. It's difficult coming to ask this of you given our relationship, but please help me, just this once, and I'll never bother you again."

Hei-Ran silently stared at her till a few seconds elapsed. She sighed as she rose to her feet and walked around the table towards her. She took the seat by her side. "You coming to make with such an....humble approach makes me curious to know what you have in those vessels." She said. She intentionally paused and leaned closer to A-Yeong.

"Su A-Yeong, I know you're doing something illegal, and you can't pull me into it. So kindly tell me what you have in those vessels. What have you been transporting with my containers?"

A-Yeong looked at her squarely and replied. "I'm sorry I can't tell you."

"Then I can't help you." Hei-Ran coldly said and rose to her feet, and A-Yeong did the same.

"Hei-Ran, please." She begged. Hei-Ran's brows furrowed when she saw the desperation in her eyes. She had never seen A-Yeong like this. The girl had said two words she had never heard her use since forever; 'Please' and 'favour.' Her attitude made her wonder what was truly going on.

Hei-Ran's eyes narrowed when A-Yeong took a step closer to her and gazed at her with pleading eyes. "Hei-Ran, this isn't for me. If it were up to me, I wouldn't be here begging you."

"Then who are you doing it for? Are you in some sort of trouble?" A hint of concern hovered in her voice. Hei-Ran couldn't help but think A-Yeong might have bedded a wrong devil who was now after her life. She didn't know, but that was the feeling she had.

She watched as A-Yeong sighed. "I'm sorry, but I can't also tell you that." She replied.

Hei-Ran looked at her and sighed before turning around. "Then I also can't help you." She said and walked back to her seat. A-Yeong stared at her for a while before nodding her head.

"Then I guess there was no need coming to you." She told her and picked her bag, and turned towards the door.

"A-Yeong," Hei-Ran called, making the girl to halt and look at her.

"I hope you're able to tell me what's going on before this blows out of proportion. Because if I find out you've been up to something bad, I won't go easy on you." She threatened, but A-Yeong only glanced at her and walked out of the office without saying a word.

She already knew what awaited her if the truth came to light, but she didn't care.. There was something else she was more about, and it wasn't herself.
