Seoul, South Korea
Soo-hee's office suddenly fell silent, everyone seemed to be focused on their thoughts and it made Jong-gi feel breathless. The three of them started this but they were also the ones who didn't want to continue it.
If he failed to bring in the Special Team to investigate this, his career would be over, and that would be a shame.
First, he doesn't know anything about that old man's love under age prostitute and then Sunny blow it up on the television, and if now he can bring her back and finish this case, he will be damned.
"I don't understand what's with all of you, including her, this is the case she always investigates, right?"
Lay put his hands in his trouser pockets. "As someone who has run a company, I understand why she's pushing back."
"What do you mean?" Tae-guk asked.
"I run a company with almost 3,000 employees, I can't just do whatever I want when thousands of people depend on the company. You understand, right?"
"So you're saying she doesn't want to take risks because of DFK?"
"DFK has more employees than JL Enterprise, and don't forget, she's already known as the director of JL Enterprise too. So she's responsible for the lives of many people."
"I asked her as the State asked her and she should have agreed with this."
"Hei, just for your information, Kang Soo-hee has a real name, Sunny Elise Kang, and she's an American citizen. You can't make her do whatever you want," said Lay.
"Okay, so what you're saying is I can't force her, that means I'm going to ask the three of you, do you want to continue with this?"
"I'll wait for Soo-hee," said Tae-guk.
"I can risk my own life, but now, I got Seon-mi back, I have to talk to her first."
"Fine, I didn't know you guys were so stubborn. Honestly, NIS and I could probably solve this alone, but you guys, you guys who have this case, I came to you because I know about it and also the fact that Han Suk-jin is Han Jae Young's father. I'll go, call me when you have your mind-set."
"You won't be able to solve this alone," said Tae-guk.
"Believe me, what's in that document, is not the only thing that happened, and this is what made me reconsider whether to take this or not, because otherwise, it's possible that what happened 5 years ago could happen again," continued Min-tae slowly.
Hearing what Min-tae said, Lay massaged the nape of his head, as if nostalgic for that time, 5 years ago, which was the toughest year for him, Sunny, and even Jin.
"You may know the accident at the intersection, but you don't know what's the real happen that night," said Lay.
"So, you think, she more suffer than me? I told her, not to be selfish, but look what she's doing."
"So you want to compare the suffer between you two? I know you probably lost a lot, but you're not the only one who suffered 5 years ago!?"
"Hyung!" Jae-young started to shout.
"Two of you, stop, enough," said Tae-guk.
Jong-gi can't say anything, he does know, there is still something missing like there are missing pieces in this case, and that's why he and the Director of NIS decided to put them back together. Jong-gi left the house, while the rest were still silent and didn't talk to each other.
Jae Young leaned his head on the chair and closed his eyes for a moment, he knew he had to do this now, otherwise he couldn't fight anymore.
Jae Young ran out of the room. "Jae Young!" Min-tae shouted but Jae Young didn't answer and continued to leave.
He takes the keys to one of Soo-hee's supercars.
"Jae-young!" Tae-guk shouted.
"Where the hell is he going?" Lay shook his head.

BLK HQ
A tall building in the middle of Seoul, he just parked his car there. Several people immediately surrounded the car, but when Jae-young got out of the car. The situation is changing.
They clear the way and bow to him because they know who he is.
"Park correctly," said Jae-young.
Jae-young walks in and walks towards the elevator and gets into it, several people try to follow him but Jae-young raises a finger.
"Don't let anyone come in, tell him I'll come in."
Ting~!
The elevator door opened, he got out of the elevator and walked towards the end of the hall where there was only one room at the end of the hall.
A large, luxurious door, with the words, Han Suk-jin office. Without thinking, he opened the door without knocking.
The owner of the room raised his head when he heard the door open. The only thing that came out of his mouth was, "Jae-youngie?"
"Don't ever say my name, I never like you saying my name."
"You don't like me calling your name but you do realize that I gave that name to you, right?"
"I know, precisely because I know that you gave me that name that I like. If it's not because grandfather and mom, I would have changed my name and even cut ties with you."
"Try it. I wonder whose lawyer would accept that."
"I still have one lawyer willing to help me."
"Oh, being part of the Special Team makes you very confident."
"Don't you think that me being on Special Teams is a blessing?"
"Blessing? Are you kidding?"
"I'm not kidding, and you should understand that I will make you regret what you've done all this time."
"You talk like you know what I'm up to, do you have definite proof that I'm connected to him?"
"Don't worry, we have plenty of resources."
"I know, but do you think JL Enterprise and DFK can help you? Believe me, the resources your father has are better than theirs."
Jae-young smiled bitterly hearing his father. "Then you mean it's better for me to join you?"
"I'm just suggesting, after all in 3 years this company will be yours, so why not now?"
"I already said that I don't want to inherit anything about this company and don't try to threaten me about them."
"Why not? You don't think that you coming into my room without permission and disturbing my time and you hope that I will still be a good father."
"Since when have you been a good father?"
"Watch your mouth! Don't think I'll go easy on you. Don't think your current status will scare me, I'm still your father!"
"You only need me 'cause I'm your son and I should take your place. I'm grateful I don't have a brother, I can't imagine if he or she has to be stuck with you."
"Have you forgotten? You have a brother."
"That brat? No, I never see him as my brother."
"Han Jae-young!"
"I warned you, for one last time. Me being a member of the Special Team should scare you."
"You want to arrest me?"
Jae-young knows his father is a stubborn man, but he never imagines that he is so stubborn. And make him think, maybe he has that too.
"You think I don't know how you communicate with them, I don't know how you two know each other, but if you are my father you should but what will I do with you."
"You're all just a bunch of people who think they're superior, don't you think who created the Special Team? Are you sure you know all the members of the team you are so proud of?"
"Do I look like I care? Behind you, there is a big, protective hand, and I also believe that this team is the same, because there is no way they will accept me who has no background other than being an actor."
Han Suk-jin didn't believe what his son said, he knew his son didn't like being lied to but it seemed like this time was different. Jae-young doesn't care about that anymore.
"But Jae Young ah, I believe one thing, that the relationship between father and son is much more valuable and strong," those nonsensical words came out of his mouth because he didn't want his son to forget that.
Jae Young frowned. "Father and son relationship? Do you think that's something you can be proud of? If Soo-hee can take down Kang Mirae. Don't you think that maybe I could do the same?"
Braak~!
Han Suk-jin stood up from his seat. "Han Jae-young!"
"I came out of the house because of that brat, and now I became a Special Team because of you. Tell him, that we will come for you all."
"You don't want to see your mother anymore?"
Jae-young came closer and whispered. "My mom? Since when do you care about Mom? There is no one better than you two. You can't threaten me with her, so don't do it."
Jae Young stepped forward.
"You know what you get now is because of my name, right?"
Jae Young stopped his footsteps. He turned and looked at his father.
"You think I don't know? As long as I live I try to get rid of this name, but I can't and I have to reconcile with that. I will inherit this name later and I feel sorry for my child. After all, he has to bear that name, because his grandfather did something disgusting. You conspired with criminals."
Jae Young left there while slamming the door.
