Jiwon left for Jeju Island the very next day. He did not even bother to say goodbye to Mirae on his way out. Mirae hid her tears as he walked out of the house.
Why are we so helpless? She wondered. But there was no time to linger on this. She had a job to do.
She carefully thought out a plan. The biggest hurdle was to get rid of those guards tailing her. After thinking for a while, Mirae decided to take the risk. Putting on a black t-shirt and green jeans she packed her duffle bag, put on her sunglasses and exited the apartment.
Putting a fake smile on her face, Mirae stepped out on the walkway. Instantly, from the corner of her eye, she saw three men carefully following her. They kept a distance and mingled well with the crowd. If she had not seen Jiwon talking to one of them, she would have never guessed that they were keeping an eye on her.
