While they were having fun, William's phone suddenly rang. A woman with a heavy makeup felt his phone vibrate. It took her a long time to take his phone, only to find out that the phone had already stopped ringing. When she was about to speak, she saw a woman's photo on the screen.
"Oh, Mr. Lan, who is this?" asked the woman. "Who deserves to be put in your phone gallery?"
Hearing that, William suddenly grabbed the phone from her. Seeing Mary's smile on the screen made him calm down. However, he turned around to the woman and said fiercely, "Who allowed you to touch my phone?! Huh?"
"I..." The woman was startled at his response and stammered.
"Fuck off! Get out! All of you!" With a loud bang, William threw the glass he was holding all of a sudden where it broke into tiny fragments.
The room became quiet for nobody dared to speak. With red eyes, William roared, "Get out!"

Ena stood aside silently, watching Victor's facial expression. She felt sorry for him but there was nothing she could do. When everyone paused their works to eat, she was about to go to comfort him, but Mary did that first.
While biting her lips, she stopped and watched them at a distance.
"I'm sorry," said Mary to Victor guiltily. "I'm really sorry, Victor."
"It's nothing." Victor forced a smile and continued, "It's my fault. I just couldn't do it."
"Victor, it's been a long time," said Mary. "I hope you can come out and forget the shadows of the past."
"How can I?" With a bitter smile on his face, Victor added, "I feel sick at the thought of it. It's not easy to forget it."
"I'm sorry," said Mary firmly, "I will get the video tape back for you. I promise."
Victor looked up at her. "Mary..."
