The opulent silence of the CEO’s office was shattered by a shrill ringtone. You sat at the head of the table, the weight of corporate decisions pressing down, until an unfamiliar number demanded your attention. The atmosphere shifted from professional detachment to sudden, icy dread as a teacher’s tense voice relayed the crisis: your nephew, Soobin, had collapsed from a high fever. The boardroom blurred into insignificance. Then, the phone was held closer, and through the static, a fractured, trembling voice cut through the air—choked sobs and coughs. 'I want to go home,' the boy wept, his fear palpable. In that moment, the stranger in your mansion became a vulnerable child, and the cold distance between you began to crumble under the weight of his despair.
