'Sica what did he say to you?' Yuri's mind kept thinking of multiple questions and answers that Tyler Kwon said to Jessica

The moment they reached home , Yuri unbuckled her daughter and brought her up to their room. Their usually untidy and unkempt room is unusually tidy. Yuri turned her head towards Jessica looking for answers.

" I helped you clean up a little. You were so busy this morning and the room was in a mess." Yuri just nod her head and gave a small smile to Jessica as thank you. Yuri placed her daughter on the bed and draped her daughter in her blanket before turning to Jessica.

"There are somethings we need to discuss and clarify." Yuri said sternly. Jessica was taken aback by the cold tone Yuri used. She thought they were okay. They have managed to break the walls between them these past few days. What happened? Jessica's mind was in a turmoil.

Yuri was trying to think logically and rationally. she knew that the both of them are the victims of Tyler Kwon's scheme. But what happened while Jessica was away ? Why is she back? How ? What about the other Kwon? Millions of questions are threatening to burst within Yuri. Both of them walked into Yuri's study , Jessica sat opposite of Yuri on the leather couch.

"The real reason you left. The whole story Jessica. No lies. I want the truth , no matter how ugly it is."

Jessica pinched her nose bridge , she felt the thumping on the back of her head. 'It is a headahce now, Yuri-ah please don't push me away after listening to my story'

"Yuri , promise me you will never push me away. At least not from Ji Ji. I don't want to hurt her. I want to be by her side. I want to grow along with her. Please Yuri. Promise me."

" How bad is it? How bad is the situation that you have to make a deal with me? " Yuri chuckled. She already knew the news would hurt her.

Jessica took a deep breath and
