"What?!" Carol yelled.
"Mom! What's the ruckus about who is at the do- Katherine?" A young woman in her early twenties stopped when she saw their unwanted guest.
Katherine ignored the little Carol and faced the actual one. "Are you going to get out of my way or not?"
"What the hell do you think you're doing? Talking to mom like that?" She asked.
"What do you think you're doing?" Katherine asked, she sighed and shut her eyes. Jessie looked at Katherine, from her tightened fists, to the way she practically shook. She was mad!
"Look, why are you making things difficult? All she wants to do is see Mr. Park, it's not as if she's he's daughter so she can't steal anything from you and your children." Jessie said.
"Not dad's daughter? Your not dad's daughter?" She laughed. "Then what the hell are you doing here? Do you not even have shame?"
Jessie eyes darkened at the comment whereas Katherine just dismissed her with an eye roll.
"Shame? Don't you think you and your mother are the shameless ones? I mean what do you think she's going to do? Steal your inheritance?" Jessie asked with a shake of the head. "Are you that suspicious of your husband? Or perhaps are your children also bastards, that he would give his property to Katherine."
"Who the hell is this bitch?!" Carol yelled pulling off Jessie mask.
Katherine eyes widened at her aggressive action but her shock could not compare to the two women before them.
Katherine younger half-sister who was also name Catherine, fell back to the floor.
"G-ghost." She breathed out.
"You're...."
"Susan Jung, what is up with the strange reactions?" Jessie asked them.
Katherine wanted to laugh at the entire situation ofcourse Jessie could handle it so simply. She was a star when it came to acting. She didn't even flinch or react.

"But... but you look exactly like-"
"Jessie Marin? No, she looks exactly like me. Plus what do you think? A dead actress with no connection whatsoever to you would suddenly appear in your house? You both look smarter than that." She stated simply.
"Katherine." An authoritative voice called from behind them and both sisters turned around.
"Dad, no Mr. Park." Katherine answered.
"Let's talk in my study." With that he turned around and walked away, settling the argument.
Katherine gave them one last glare and walked away after her father.
"So where do I wait?" Jessie asked with a smug smirk.
Carol huffed and walked away while the younger woman lead her to the sitting room.
"Are you sure you aren't the actress Jessie Marin?" She asked again.
Jessie pursed her lip and looked annoyed. "No! My name is Susan, Susan Jung!" She huffed, never before had she been so happy with Jason. He really covered all her bases.
"Alright fine whatever."
"Wait," Jessie called out to her as she started to walk away. "Can I ask you something?"
"What?"
"When your father called out Katherine's name why did you turn around as well. The way you did." Jessie asked, it was normal that she would turn around because of the foreign voice. But over the years she had come to learn to discern movements and reaction, because she had to fake them. When Katherine's younger sibling turned around it was not because of a foreign it was instinctual.
"Because my name is also Catherine, with a C." She replied cheekily.
Jessie laughed, "how disrespectful." She mumbled.
"What was that?" The girl asked.
"Nothing, you can go." Jessie dismissed her, pulling out her phone. She decided to keep busy while she waited for Katherine. As soon as she turned it on it began to make noise.

57 missed calls? 7 from Krystal, 5 from Tony, 6 from Jonathan and ofcourse 39 from Jason. What the hell was going on?
An article popped up from her notification with her name on it so she clicked on it.
'The actress Jessie Marin has been confirmed to not being dead. Due to the recent sightings from various witnesses, the police and prosecution opened up the case again. After exuming the body belived to be the dead actress and testing the DNA of the corpse. Speculations held were confirmed, the body truly does not belong to the dead actress, instead to a Diana Lim. The police believe that the actress framed her death in order to escape charges on her for the murder of her driver, Philip Morris. An ABP has been placed and she is now on the wanted list. If any one sees the actress they are advised to contact the police immediately.'
Tears trickled the side of Jessie eyes and all of a sudden her throat constricted, she couldn't breathe. She clutched her chest and fell to her knees struggling to breathe. Carol walked into the room and saw Jessie on her knees, running to her she shook her violently.
"What's wrong? Susan? Susan!" She hit her again, very firmly on her back and Jessie coughed. She began to breathe again and her face started regain it's colour.
"Are you okay?" She asked, her voice sounding slightly panicked. "I'll go get you water!" She got up and dashed out of the room.
As she picked up a glass cup her daughter came running into the kitchen. "Mom! Mom you wouldn't believe it, Jessie Marin is alive!"
"What rubbish are you saying?" Carol asked.
Her daughter pushed the phone into her mother's hand and she gasped as she read the news. "That means..."
"That woman there isn't any Susan, she's Jessie Marin!" Catherine exclaimed quietly.
Carol began to panic, "what do we do? She's a murderer! A murderer is in my house!"
"Should I call the cops?" Catherine asked.
"Ofcourse! What are you waiting for?!"
Jessie bit her lip nervously as she stood by the door, the entrance into the kitchen. She immediately began to look for Katherine. They needed to get out of here right now!
