"Why are you all so bothered by Katherine?" He asked them as they walked past him. "I thought we already cleared this up Choi Yuri."
"Well so did I." She stated bluntly. "But don't forget you left me stranded in front of my grandparents' house, struggling to explain where the man I was supposed to be marrying dashed away to."
"It pointless to speak to him" his mother spat. "Come dear." She gestured for Choi Yuri. Paul sighed as he watched them walk out of the office, unable to just let it go as the mothers left he grabbed her back and shut the door.
"What do you think you are doing?" She huffed glaring at him.
Paul pushed her aganist the door and trapped her there. "I realise I was wrong, I should have called-"
"No you shouldn't have left Paul." She said.
Paul shut his eyes and sighed for the second time. "Katherine was hurt, she was very hurt. I had to go, and I won't apologise for that." He said curtly and she scoffed.
"Then why I'm I still here, let go!" She exclaimed trying to pull her arm away, but his grip only tightened.
"Wait.. wait, look I am sorry, I was wrong for not calling you after, that's on me and I'm sorry." He said.
Choi Yuri stared at him intently before speaking. "Tell me this Paul, was the reason you didn't call related to Katherine?" She nodded after acknowledging his reaction. "I can already tell, answer this question as well. Do you have feelings for Katherine?"
Paul sighed again, "how many times do I have to say it. We are just friends, close friends."
Yuri shook her head. "No matter how deep a friendship is it's not possible to behave the way you do. I don't know if you're lying to me or yourself, but it's too late now."
"Late for what?" He asked in confusion.
"Too late to back out, I already like you. So just keep denying it to the very end." She said. "I need to go, let me go."
He stepped back and she spun around pulling the door. Glancing back one last time, "Don't be late, 6pm tomorrow night."
"I thought it was tonight." He said.
"We can move it. But it not going farther than tomorrow so act accordingly." With that she shut the door and left.

Lights, camera, action!
"Good evening everyone!" Amanda gave the camera her biggest smile. "It's been a strange couple of months haven't it, but you asked and I listened so today we have the goddess of showbiz herself. Gracing us with her presence yet again. Welcome Patricia Lee!"
The onstage audience gave the cheers and claps as she walked on stage in a very casual outfit. She wore a lose fitting tuxedo with sneakers and put her hair into a pony tail. Waving at the audience with her camera ready smile as she did.
"Hello everyone, Amanda..." she smiled. "Thank you for having me on your show."
"Are you Kidding? Thank you for showing up. It's been what? Two, three months? I can't believe just then we had Jessie on this stage with you." Amada sighed and the air in the studio suddenly became tense. "Goodness! Should I not have said that?" Her hand flew to her mouth.
"Ofcourse you should Amanda, it's a massive issue that has shaken the core of the entertainment issue in this country" Patricia informed her.
"Right? That's true, the entire world have be watching from the side tracks but you, you're the closest person to the situation and you've been refusing interviews because you wanted to protect the honor of your dear friend. But proof has come that Jessie Marin is alive, what do you have to say about that?" Amanda asked.
Patricia sighed feigning innocence. "That's a difficult question" she said tucking her hair behind her ear.
"Yes... but it's about time you clear up the confusion don't you think?"
Biting her lips in hesitation, "this is really difficult for me to talk about as Jessie is one of my dearest friends. But I hope she can understand that her actions are unforgivable and I cannot stand by her in this difficult times." She started.

"Can you believe it Tony? I'm finally home!" Jessie sighed as she walked into her house.
"You should count yourself lucky, it was about to be auctioned off." He said.
"I know right, the only thing that seemed to work in my favour this past months." She smiled. "Ugh it's so dusty, you would think I haven't been in here for years."
"I called the cleaning lady she should be here soon." He informed.
"Thank you." She nodded. Walking into her living room, as she finished wiping a spot to sit her phone began to ring in her pocket.
"Krystal? What's up?"
"Have you seen the interview?" Krystal asked hurriedly.
"What interview?"
"I'll send the link immediately." She said, and Jessie phone buzzed, she put the phone on loud speaker and grabbed her laptop bag. Typing it in she opened the video.
"It's a live video?"
"Yes, Jessie this is bad!"
**************************************************
"But she is going to be persecuted isn't she?" Amanda asked, "unless the law of this country does not apply to the one percent?"
"Oh don't do that Amanda, you'll make me feel even more guilty. But as it stands the law cannot punish her, or rather refuses to." Patricia stated.
"What does that mean?"
"It means regardless of the fact that she murdered two people in cold blood and faked her death. Jessie Marin has been accquited of her charges."
Jessie's eyes widened in horror, no one was supposed to know about that yet. Not until they had proof of the auction house!
"Jessie? You have to go back." Tony said behind her.
"That bitch!" Jessie screamed in rage.
"Are you listening to me at all? You have to go back, you really are not safe here, this is the first place they will look for you." Tony shook her to get her attention.
"I don't care, I'm not running away."
"This is not the time for bravado Jessie. You have to go back now!"
