She later discovers her pregnancy, and demands the hospital gets to the bottom of the case.

Eventually she discovers that the donor whose child she is now pregnant with is none other than the CEO of a notable cosmetics firm named Diamond Cosmetics. This CEO, named Raphael (Sung Hoon), is going through a messy divorce with his wife Lee Ma Ri (Hong Ji Yoon), a beautiful woman who does not want to split for her husband, chiefly for financial reasons. But when Raphael learns he is to be a father, things get very complicated – particularly after her realizes that there is a secret past connection that links him to Oh Woori!
