Suddenly, her cousin's friend, JungWoo, who left her nine years ago after hurting her, appears in front of her, but he doesn't recognize her because she looks so different.

"Let's just live quietly for a decade and forget everything. About me, about that incident that was more trivial than the dust of that seventeen-year-old day... But just like the woodcutter in the fairy tale, who once upon a time told the lady the secret of the wings he had hidden from her when she had less than three children. I will meet him again by chance one day, a little less than a decade later, just nine years later. And when I will see him again, I couldn't help approaching him, despite having erased from my memory and my resolve to live quietly for ten years." *** "Huh! JungWoo, you just come and go to these places on a day like this. Now, I'm sure I'll live for a long time." "Well, I was just passing by and I think I heard that you opened a pub around here a while ago, so I deliberately stopped by to find it. I'm glad you're in the right place," JungWoo replied as he was greeted by his high school classmate, YongJoon as he entered the hall of a chicken pub packed with customers. "Unless it's a busy day like today, I'd like to talk about the old days all night while drinking so that my nose is crooked with you... What can I do? That's how I am..." YongJoon, who was in an apron eagerly serving the customers, made an apologetic look towards JungWoo, who must have come for him. "Okay. I'm busy too, but don't worry about me, just keep doing what you're doing. I heard a rumor that you opened a business, but I couldn't come because of the excuse that I didn't have time, and now I'm here. Now I know where your pub is and look at your face, so that's it. I'll come back next time when I have time, let's make it happen." "But I'm so sad if you just go like this. You sit down for a moment because you can see my handsome face, and I think you'll be at ease if you have a draft beer." YongJoon said as JungWoo stood at the busy entrance, trying to leave in the crowd of customers exiting the store. YongJoon grabbed the sleeve of his coat. "You don't even have a seat, but I'll definitely come back next time." JungWoo visited YongJoon on a busy day and replaced his apologies with an awkward smile because he seemed to be bothering him.

Young Frederick Musgrave was never more agile than when navigating his sculler across the waters of the Tyne between the busy seaports of North and South Shields in 1843. Already his services were in demand as a carrier of messages and certain small packages for those whose activities made them the target of the Customs and Excise men. As well as agile, Freddie was also reckoned to be lucky, but on such a night as brought him to The Towers, the home of Mr Roderick Gallagher, both luck and courage were to be tested to the limit. From that night on, things really began to happen to Freddie, and the best of them came when he gained the friendship and patronage of Miss Maggie Hewitt, who was to play a major role in shaping his life and fortunes. But he would still need all his luck and resourcefulness to escape the long shadow cast by Roderick Gallagher, whose power and influence threatened all who crossed his path . . .
