The accident causes the company Dion works at to fail at a project; prompting his boss to fire him. Karin is impenitent.

At a café, Karin becomes infatuated towards a man, Ardhi, who resemble her idol physically. They soon date. While Dion catches her on infidelity, Karin tests positive for pregnancy. She reacts badly, complaining that her resolution on visiting Korea and her idol failed, the money being used to do checkups. Dion meets Ardhi, urging him to leave Karin. Ardhi agrees, but Karin must return the things she borrowed. Karin intervenes, slipping her off and triggering miscarriage. She promises to Ardhi that she will divorce from Dion. Dion turns kind to her after grieving on the technically murdered fetus, but she retains with Ardhi due to wealth and common interest; Ardhi later impregnates Karin.
