Jennie told Jisoo that Doyeon was missing and instructed him to locate her. But, Doyeon didn't want to be found because she knew her friends and family would only hold her back.

The only thing she wanted to do was to find Lucas. Without Lucas, her life meant nothing, even though she was pregnant.

So, Jisoo may have been well informed, but even he struggled to find the deliberately hiding Doyeon.

"Madam, I don't think we will find Doyeon in the short term. What should we do now?"

"In that case, let's find out the location of Lucas's plane crash. I'm sure she will be headed there," Jennie instructed.

"OK, I'll go do that right now, Madam."

Doyeon did not want to be found, so she disguised as a backpacker and headed up the trail to where Lucas's plane crashed.

It had crashed inside a gorge, just outside a quiet sightseeing town, but the gorge had been practically overrun with soldiers, yet there was still no sign of Lucas.

It's not that Doyeon didn't trust in the search efforts of the military, but no one understood Lucas better than she did. Because of this understanding, she knew that even if he left the smallest hint of where he was, she would be able to find him.

But, she had no idea that President Fan had sent some people to follow her and these people were staying in the same hostel as she was.

"What is that woman planning to do here on her own?"

"Who knows? She's even cut all contact with the outside world..."

"In that case, when should we make a move?"

The two men were staying in a room opposite Doyeon. As they discussed their next move, they were confused by Doyeon's decision to come to such a small village.

"Let's just wait and see what this pregnant lady plans to do. If we're lucky, we might not be required to do a thing."

"OK, let's follow her tomorrow and see..."

Doyeon planned to enter the gorge early the next morning. So, she decided to discuss the route with the owner of the hostel.

"Miss, you're here because of the recent plane crash, aren't you?" the owner had heard about what happened and noticed that 80-90% of those flocking into the gorge lately were somehow related to the accident.

"The person in the plane crash...was my husband," Doyeon sobbed as she looked at the owner. "So, if you know anything, please let me know."

"Oh, you poor thing..." the owner said as he shook his head. "Miss, it's not that I don't want to help you, but when it comes to the military, everything we know are just rumors. No one has actually seen anything with their own eyes."

Doyeon lowered her head with disappointment.

"If you really want to head into the gorge, I can tell my daughter to take you," the owner said as he pointed to a young woman behind the reception desk. "She may be a woman, but she's attended martial arts school in the past to protect this hostel. After you enter the gorge, you will at least have each other."

"OK, thank you."

As a result, Doyeon and the hostel owner's daughter headed into the gorge the next morning. Meanwhile, the men sent by President Fan asked around and were finally 80% certain that Doyeon was here to look for her husband.

They quickly passed on the information to President Fan and President Fan laughed as soon as he heard it.

"If Doyeon is there because of her husband, you guys should disguise as villagers and lure her to a dangerous spot in the gorge by telling her that you heard her husband might be there."
