00:00:00I, Elisa, a nobody in the workplace, single since birth for 23 years, never even held
00:00:12a man's hand, but last night I accidentally slept with my boss.
00:00:17He's a CEO, he's the kind of guy that you read about in novels, and he already has a
00:00:21woman in his heart.
00:00:22Hey, it's been a really long night.
00:00:24Hey, it's been a really long night, and I think it should be a longer night.
00:00:33You should come over.
00:00:35I'll see you soon.
00:00:40What do you mean by question mark?
00:00:42Because you used to be fun.
00:00:44I have good wine.
00:00:46I'm in room 1501.
00:00:48I'll see you soon.
00:00:53I'm coming.
00:01:04Is this really a sword?
00:01:07What are you doing?
00:01:23Elisa?
00:01:24Hey, Mom.
00:01:25Please come home as soon as possible.
00:01:26I just received an order from the court.
00:01:27Since we are unable to repay the huge debt your father owed, our house will be auctioned
00:01:28off to pay off the debt.
00:01:29We must move out of the house now.
00:01:30Don't worry.
00:01:31I'm going to be right there.
00:01:32Elisa?
00:01:33Elisa?
00:01:34Elisa?
00:01:35Elisa?
00:01:36Elisa?

00:01:40Elisa?
00:01:41Elisa?
00:01:42Elisa?
00:01:43Elisa?
00:01:44Elisa?
00:01:45Elisa?
00:01:46Elisa?
00:01:47Elisa?
00:01:48Elisa?
00:01:49Elisa?
00:01:50Elisa?
00:01:51Elisa?
00:01:52I'm going to be right there.
00:02:01Oh my God.
00:02:02Mom, are you okay?
00:02:05I'm fine, honey.
00:02:08I'm so sorry I couldn't save the house.
00:02:12Don't worry.
00:02:14As long as we're together, we'll get through this difficult time.
00:02:19Is there anything else in there?
00:02:24No.
00:02:25This is it.
00:02:26One second.
00:02:27Okay, I'll be right back.
00:02:28Hello?
00:02:29Elisa, where are you?
00:02:30Don't you remember?
00:02:31We were supposed to meet in the conference room at 9.
00:02:32Manager Smith's gone crazy looking for you.
00:02:33I'm so sorry, but something unexpected happened at home and if you could please just tell management
00:02:34that...
00:02:35Hello?
00:02:36Hello?
00:02:37Hello?
00:02:38Hello?
00:02:39Hello?
00:02:40Hello?
00:02:41Hello?
00:02:42Hello?
00:02:43Hello?
00:02:44Hello?
00:02:45Hello?
00:02:46Hello?
00:02:47Hello?
00:02:48Hello?
00:02:49Hello?
00:02:50Hello?
00:02:51Hello?
00:02:52Hello?
00:02:53No, no, no, no, no, this sucks.
00:02:54I just lost my house and now I'm going to lose my job too?
00:02:55Where am I going to find a million dollars?
00:02:56Elisa?
00:02:57Why are you crying?
00:02:58Um...
00:02:59Mr. Hawthorne, what are you doing here?
00:03:00Oh, I'm actually here for you.
00:03:01What?
00:03:02I need a marriage partner.
00:03:03I'm so sorry.
00:03:04I really am sorry.
00:03:05I really am so sorry.
00:03:06I'm sorry.
00:03:07I'm sorry.
00:03:08I'm sorry.
00:03:09I'm sorry.
00:03:10I'm so sorry.
00:03:11I'm sorry.
00:03:12I'm sorry.
00:03:13I'm sorry.
00:03:14I'm sorry.
00:03:15I'm sorry.
00:03:16I'm sorry.
00:03:17Again, what?
00:03:19I need you to be my wife.
00:03:21Give it a thought.
00:03:25Mr. Hawthorne, I was
00:03:27really drunk last night
00:03:29and I can't remember how everything
00:03:31happened after, but you really don't-
00:03:33Look, I know some unfortunate things have
00:03:35happened in your family recently.
00:03:39This card has more than enough on it
00:03:41to pay off all your debts
00:03:43and make sure that your house doesn't get auctioned off.
00:03:45If you agree,
00:03:47we can get the marriage certificate right now.
00:03:57Why do you want to help me?
00:03:59I told you.
00:04:01I need a wife.
00:04:03And you're the most suitable person.
00:04:09Okay.
00:04:11It's for my family.
00:04:13I have no other way.
00:04:17Mr. Hawthorne,
00:04:19thank you so much for helping me.
00:04:21I promise I will pay you back
00:04:23every cent as soon as I can.
00:04:25You don't pay me back more than happy.
00:04:29I'm gonna get back to work then.
00:04:31Ronan will actually
00:04:33take you back, and I'll give you my home address
00:04:35so you can move in tonight.
00:04:37Your home address?
00:04:39We're legally married.
00:04:41That's where we're living together.
00:04:43Right. This is a deal.
00:04:45I can't just take the money and give nothing
00:04:47in return.
00:04:49I can get myself to work.
00:04:51And I'll be back on time tonight.
00:04:59Elisa,
00:05:01you're finally mine.
00:05:07Oh my god! I'm so sorry.
00:05:09I didn't see you there.
00:05:11No worries. It's fine.
00:05:17Can I have your name?
00:05:19I'm Elisa.
00:05:21Yo! Never knew Mr. Hawthorne
00:05:23would have such a silly smile moment.
00:05:25Alright.
00:05:29It's real?
00:05:31If your mom finds out you married a Cinderella.
00:05:33Alright. I give it back.
00:05:35You watch your mouth.
00:05:39You really married
00:05:41Mr. Hawthorne?
00:05:43It's just a contract marriage.
00:05:45I'll explain it to you later.
00:05:47Mrs. Elisa Hawthorne,
00:05:49you are the CEO's wife,
00:05:51so where is my pay break?
00:05:53We've known each other since middle school.
00:05:55I don't think he actually likes me.
00:05:57Plus, everyone in the company knows
00:05:59who he actually wants to be with.
00:06:03Miss Harth is back!
00:06:09Hello, everyone.
00:06:11Please, help yourself
00:06:13to have some cake.
00:06:15Thank you, Miss Harth.
00:06:17You are so very kind.
00:06:19It's really such an honor to work with you.
00:06:21Please, don't flatter me.
00:06:23I have to go see Mr. Hawthorne right now.
00:06:25He must want to see me right now.
00:06:27Save a slice for me, honey.
00:06:29Winsor, you think
00:06:31they will make their own relationship?
00:06:33I don't think so.
00:06:35I don't think so.
00:06:37Winsor, you think they will make their own relationship public?
00:06:39Probably soon.
00:06:41Last time I accidentally saw Mr. Hawthorne
00:06:43unlock his phone,
00:06:45the code is 0903, Miss Harth's birthday.
00:06:47Isn't it a little too obvious?
00:06:49Wow, I never knew Mr. Hawthorne would be so romantic.
00:06:51He usually puts on a poker face.
00:06:53Amelia, my relationship with Mr. Hawthorne...
00:06:57Please, don't talk about it.
00:06:59Okay.
00:07:07Okay.
00:07:09Okay.
00:07:130903.
00:07:150903.
00:07:17It's Summer's birthday again.
00:07:19If they love each other so much, then...
00:07:21It's okay.
00:07:23Whatever it is, it's just not getting his money back.
00:07:33Why aren't you coming in?
00:07:37Mr. Hawthorne, I think that we should...
00:07:39Follow me.
00:08:01What should I do?
00:08:03Am I supposed to sleep with him tonight?
00:08:05I know that we did that before,
00:08:07but I was drunk.
00:08:13If I turn him down, will he get angry?
00:08:15But if I don't...
00:08:17Alyssa?
00:08:19You okay?
00:08:21I'm fine. Thank you for asking.
00:08:23I'm...
00:08:25I'm not ready.
00:08:27I was...
00:08:29just going to turn off the light.
00:08:31What did you think I was going to do?
00:08:33Oh, yeah.
00:08:35No, don't get me wrong.
00:08:37I just meant I wasn't ready to sleep yet.
00:08:39Alyssa,
00:08:41I don't want some one-night stand.
00:08:43I'm not ready.
00:08:45I'm not ready.
00:08:47I'm not ready.
00:08:49I'm not ready.
00:08:51I don't want a one-night stand.
00:08:53I want to be your everything.
00:08:59Matthew, why did the negotiations
00:09:01with the Sunlight Group fail?
00:09:03It's Alyssa's fault.
00:09:05If she hadn't skipped work that day,
00:09:07we could have succeeded.
00:09:09How is it her fault?
00:09:11Please give me a reasonable explanation.
00:09:13I heard someone saw Mr. Hawthorne
00:09:15entering her hotel room
00:09:17the night before Alyssa skipped work.
00:09:19What?
00:09:21What did you say to me?
00:09:23It is absolutely true.
00:09:25Not only did she cause our failure,
00:09:27but she dared to seduce Mr. Hawthorne
00:09:29when you were away.
00:09:37Matthew,
00:09:39you know how important our negotiations
00:09:41with the Sunlight Group is.
00:09:43And since it is your subordinate's fault,
00:09:45you know what to do.
00:09:47Mr. Sherwood,
00:09:49I know what to do.
00:09:55Last night,
00:09:57with Lucian laying beside me,
00:09:59I couldn't sleep at all.
00:10:01Alyssa,
00:10:03is this how you do your job?
00:10:05Look what trouble you brought us.
00:10:07It is because of you that we lost the project
00:10:09with the Sunlight Group.
00:10:11You're fired.
00:10:13Mr. Clark, I was only in charge of the initial budget,
00:10:15not the negotiations.
00:10:17I don't understand how this could be my fault.
00:10:19Did you forget about your
00:10:21unexcused absence last time?
00:10:23Did you forget about
00:10:25your unexcused absence last time?
00:10:27That's because something unexpected
00:10:29happened at home, but I called in for a leave of absence.
00:10:31So what?
00:10:33We needed you last minute and you weren't there.
00:10:35Now that the project has failed,
00:10:37if you're not to blame,
00:10:39who else would it be?
00:10:41I was absent that day, yes,
00:10:43but I prepared the initial budget ahead of time
00:10:45so there is no way that my absence
00:10:47would have affected the negotiations.
00:10:49Wouldn't have affected
00:10:51the negotiations? Alyssa,
00:10:53take a closer look.
00:10:55What did you write in the project budget?
00:11:01No, no, no, this isn't right.
00:11:03I wrote $50 million.
00:11:05How did it become $5 million?
00:11:07For a professional budget analyst,
00:11:09you've made such a sloppy mistake.
00:11:11Alyssa,
00:11:13do you have anything else to say for yourself?
00:11:15Looks like Alyssa is in trouble.
00:11:17Looks like Alyssa is in trouble.
00:11:19Alyssa always strikes me as a professional.
00:11:21How could she make such an error?
00:11:23Keep it down.
00:11:25Can't you see?
00:11:27You're just trying to find someone to take responsibility.
00:11:31Wait,
00:11:33I have evidence to prove that my budget was correct.
00:11:35I have evidence to prove that my budget was correct.
00:11:39Evidence?
00:11:41Then why don't you show it to everyone?
00:11:43I have the dated source files on my computer
00:11:45that can show that I had the right numbers.
00:11:47No,
00:11:49no, they were right here.
00:11:51How could they be gone?
00:11:53Alyssa, are you joking?
00:11:55Where's your so-called evidence?
00:11:57Alyssa,
00:11:59are you suggesting that Mr. Clark and Ms. Hart
00:12:01are conspiring against you?
00:12:03You better pack up and leave now
00:12:05before making a bigger fool out of yourself.
00:12:07What are you saying?
00:12:09I've seen the budget Alyssa made.
00:12:11We all checked it as a team.
00:12:15Obviously, someone tampered with it.
00:12:17Are you saying that we are framing her?
00:12:19At the very least,
00:12:21she deserves a good reason to be fired.
00:12:23Fine.
00:12:25If anyone else can vouch for Alyssa,
00:12:27I can give her a second chance.
00:12:29Anyone?
00:12:31Weren't you there when we checked that time?
00:12:33I don't remember.
00:12:39Since there's no one, Alyssa,
00:12:41would you like to walk yourself out
00:12:43or would you like me to have someone escort you out?
00:12:51This better be something important.
00:12:53Mr. Hawthorne, the business department is in uproar.
00:12:55So? Can't Summer handle it?
00:12:57She started it.
00:12:59Mr. Clark are trying to fire Mrs. Hawthorne.
00:13:01Let's go.
00:13:05Amelia, it's okay.
00:13:07They clearly just want someone to blame for this entire thing.
00:13:09So what should we do then?
00:13:11Allow them to push all the blame onto you?
00:13:15Ms. Hart, Mr. Clark,
00:13:17I'll step down from my position,
00:13:19but I will never admit to mistakes
00:13:21that I didn't make.
00:13:23I will get down to the bottom of this.
00:13:25You're shameless.
00:13:27It's right here.
00:13:29Where do you get the nerve to deny it?
00:13:31Besides the project book, there's also surveillance footage
00:13:33and there are computer backend logs.
00:13:35All of these will prove that my budget was correct.
00:13:37And I will investigate this until the end.
00:13:41There is no need for an investigation.
00:13:43You have already been fired.
00:13:47Since you refuse to leave,
00:13:49security,
00:13:51drag her out.
00:13:57Alyssa,
00:13:59you dare to seduce the man I like
00:14:01when I'm not around?
00:14:03You'll never set foot in Hogdon Groove ever again.
00:14:09Summer?
00:14:11What are you doing?
00:14:15Why is he here?
00:14:17Could it be he's here to support Summer?
00:14:19Lucian, what brings you here?
00:14:21Let her go.
00:14:23What's going on with these two?
00:14:25Am I fired or not?
00:14:27Could it be I'm just a pawn in their game?
00:14:29Care to explain what's going on?
00:14:31Well, Alyssa made a big mistake at work,
00:14:33so I fired her.
00:14:35But she refused to leave,
00:14:37disrupting everyone at work,
00:14:39so Matthew called security to escort her out.
00:14:41Fired for what?
00:14:43Here's the thing, Mr. Hawthorne.
00:14:45The negotiations with the Sunlight Group failed
00:14:47due to Alyssa's mistake.
00:14:49We had to let her go according to company regulations.
00:14:51You set me up with some half-baked plan
00:14:53and tried to fire me
00:14:55and then called security.
00:14:57Is that within the lines of regulation?
00:14:59Alyssa, how dare you question
00:15:01company regulations in front of Mr. Hawthorne?
00:15:03Lucian, see?
00:15:05She won't admit her mistakes
00:15:07and she even questions your public.
00:15:11Oh god, now I'm really fired.
00:15:15Alyssa actually talked back to Mr. Hawthorne.
00:15:17She has to be fired now.
00:15:23I'm actually pitying her, no matter what.
00:15:25Pitying her?
00:15:27You're an employee too. Mind your own business.
00:15:31Alyssa, you sure are bald, aren't you?
00:15:33Alyssa, don't you know
00:15:35what Mr. Hawthorne means?
00:15:37Hurry up and leave.
00:15:39Of course Lucian is on Summer's side.
00:15:41I'm just his wife out of nowhere.
00:15:45Surely I'm no match for his lover.
00:15:53Hold on.
00:15:57Did I tell you to leave?
00:15:59You're not angry?
00:16:01Why would I be angry?
00:16:03The company needs to find out who's responsible for Sunrise Group Project first.
00:16:05Ronan, take charge of that.
00:16:07Yes, Mr. Hawthorne.
00:16:09So what you're saying is I'm not fired.
00:16:11At least for now.
00:16:15Lucian, Alyssa not only made mistakes
00:16:17on this project, but she was absent
00:16:19from work without permission and she defied you
00:16:21in public. Summer, I'll handle company policy, okay?
00:16:25But we never, ever fire an employee
00:16:27for no reason.
00:16:29I...
00:16:31I agree with Lucian.
00:16:33Matthew, I told you to wait
00:16:35until the investigation was done, but you insisted
00:16:37that the results were clear.
00:16:39Apologize to Mr. Hawthorne right now.
00:16:41Yes, Ms. Hart.
00:16:43Is Lucian helping me?
00:16:45But as a CEO, he needs to do
00:16:47things fairly in front of his employees.
00:16:49This proves nothing.
00:16:51Alyssa, may I have a few words with you?
00:16:57Alyssa, you are damn lucky
00:16:59this time. But you won't be for the next
00:17:01time.
00:17:11Mr. Hawthorne,
00:17:13if this is about the project, then I'm so sorry
00:17:15that you were bothered.
00:17:17Do you think that's why I brought you here?
00:17:21Do you think that's why I brought you here?
00:17:23Next time something like that happens, come see me.
00:17:25Don't let me handle it.
00:17:27You're so busy.
00:17:29I didn't want to bother you.
00:17:31We're married.
00:17:35You can do whatever you want.
00:17:37We're at the office.
00:17:39Don't fool around.
00:17:41Fool around?
00:17:43Well, that's the proper thing since we're married.
00:17:47I guess you mean
00:17:49I should act like your wife all the time?
00:17:51Even while we're at work?
00:17:53That's not necessarily
00:17:55what I mean.
00:17:57Well, if that's all, Mr. Hawthorne,
00:17:59I guess I'll be going back to work.
00:18:07Lisa.
00:18:09Remember my words.
00:18:11Stay away from that girl.
00:18:17Lisa,
00:18:19when you were in Mr. Hawthorne's office...
00:18:21Amelia!
00:18:23I can't really understand a thing over here.
00:18:25Can you help me, please?
00:18:31Ms. Hart?
00:18:33May I help you?
00:18:35You are still under investigation.
00:18:37Now isn't the current time for you to be working
00:18:39on company projects.
00:18:41But I was just looking over the project budget
00:18:43for the next thing.
00:18:45Come fetch me a cup of coffee.
00:18:47Can't you see the trash is full?
00:18:49Clean it.
00:18:51Ms. Hart?
00:18:53I'm an analyst.
00:18:55I'm not an intern.
00:18:57What? Are you defying your superior?
00:18:59Someone is really ignorant.
00:19:01She hasn't been clarified yet.
00:19:03Now she's defying her superior.
00:19:05Does she think she owns the company?
00:19:07Right?
00:19:09Ms. Hart is not just the daughter of a noble family.
00:19:11She also has an unusual relationship
00:19:13I will be in your best interest
00:19:15to help Ms. Hart with the trifle.
00:19:17Stop being ungrateful.
00:19:19Elisa, I can have you fired
00:19:21for defying your superior.
00:19:23So you better choose wisely.
00:19:25You're right. I like my job.
00:19:27And I'm going to become
00:19:29an excellent executive in my dream company.
00:19:31Fine.
00:19:33I'll do it.
00:19:35Better to bend than break, huh?
00:19:37It doesn't matter.
00:19:39Let's see how long you can keep tolerating.
00:19:41Ms. Hart?
00:19:43Your coffee.
00:19:45Hand it to me.
00:19:53Oh my god!
00:19:55This coffee is so hot.
00:19:57No one can stand it.
00:19:59I'm going to have to go.
00:20:01I'm going to have to go.
00:20:03God, this coffee is so hot.
00:20:05It almost burned me alive.
00:20:07Oh my god. I'm so sorry. Are you okay?
00:20:09Don't you know I only drink iced Americano?
00:20:11Who hired you anyway?
00:20:13I'm so sorry. I will go buy you one right now.
00:20:15Can't you see there's coffee on the floor?
00:20:17Clean it up. Now.
00:20:25Who told you you could mob the floor with that?
00:20:27If you damage the floors,
00:20:29can you afford to pay for them?
00:20:31Exactly. Would you like me to mob the floor, Ms. Hart?
00:20:33With a cloth.
00:20:35On your hands and knees.
00:20:37Inch by inch.
00:20:39I'm sorry. Don't you think you're going a little too far?
00:20:41What? Can't handle it?
00:20:43You could always quit.
00:20:51Well, by that I guess you mean
00:20:53I should act like your wife all the time?
00:20:55Even while we're at work?
00:20:57Mr. Hawthorne,
00:20:59there's an upcoming online meeting
00:21:01with an overseas company.
00:21:03Uh-huh.
00:21:05Hey, is the business department next to the meeting room?
00:21:07Yes, Mr. Hawthorne.
00:21:09Let's pay it a visit first.
00:21:11He was just departing.
00:21:13He's already so eager to see her.
00:21:15He's completely in love with her.
00:21:19Ms. Hart, would you please lift your foot?
00:21:21Oh, I'm sorry.
00:21:23I didn't do it on purpose.
00:21:25Elise,
00:21:27when you were seducing Lucian
00:21:29when I was away,
00:21:31have you ever thought of today?
00:21:33I didn't seduce him.
00:21:35You didn't?
00:21:37Do you really think I wouldn't know
00:21:39because I was away?
00:21:41You had to seduce Lucian,
00:21:43then you must be prepared for my revenge.
00:21:45Silver, what the hell are you doing?
00:21:51Silver, what the hell are you doing?
00:21:53Lucian!
00:21:55Elise is still under investigation, right?
00:21:57She's not suitable for working on company projects,
00:21:59so I had her doing simpler tasks
00:22:01like fetching me coffee,
00:22:03but she spilled the coffee on purpose.
00:22:05That isn't true.
00:22:07It doesn't matter anyway. I don't blame her for it.
00:22:09But she insisted on wiping it up.
00:22:11I stepped on her by accident.
00:22:13I was about to apologize to her.
00:22:15Is that so?
00:22:17Elise, is that actually what happened?
00:22:19I'm in love with Simon.
00:22:21Even if I told the truth, would he believe me?
00:22:23Yes, it's the truth.
00:22:25Come with me to my office.
00:22:29Come!
00:22:31Why on earth
00:22:33did Lucian call Elisa to his office again?
00:22:35I must find out.
00:22:43Have a seat.
00:22:45Your hands hurt.
00:22:47You need a bandage.
00:22:49It's really fine.
00:22:51I can just go home and...
00:22:53No, no, I got it all right.
00:22:55Have a seat.
00:22:59Let's see.
00:23:01You know, Summer is competent,
00:23:03but she can be bossy and overbearing.
00:23:05I can transfer you to another department.
00:23:07If you can't bear her,
00:23:09maybe mine.
00:23:11So we can spend more time together.
00:23:13No, no, I'm fine
00:23:15in the business department.
00:23:17Elisa, you're my wife.
00:23:19I don't want you to be bullied anymore.
00:23:21Stop pretending like you don't know she only does that
00:23:23because she's in love with you.
00:23:25Okay, last step.
00:23:29Okay.
00:23:31Just don't let this hand touch water for a moment.
00:23:33Thank you, Mr. Hawthorne.
00:23:35It's just the two of us.
00:23:37You can call me by my name.
00:23:39When we're at work, I thought I shouldn't.
00:23:41Yeah, why shouldn't you?
00:23:43Why did you marry me?
00:23:45And why do you keep defending me?
00:23:47Do you really not know why?
00:23:49We've known each other since high school,
00:23:51but he's always kind of ignored me.
00:23:53Hasn't he always had a thing for Summer?
00:23:55Or could it be that
00:23:57everyone has been wrong all along?
00:24:05Bloody Elisa.
00:24:07You sure are good at playing naive.
00:24:09I must find a way to teach you a lesson.
00:24:13A reunion party?
00:24:15The gods are favoring me.
00:24:19Elisa,
00:24:21I must teach you a lesson this time.
00:24:27Alright.
00:24:29It's ready.
00:24:31How many slices do you want?
00:24:33Mom, what's wrong?
00:24:35Elisa, isn't our house supposed to be auctioned off
00:24:37by the court to pay off our debts?
00:24:39Debts?
00:24:41Why hasn't this happened yet?
00:24:43Um...
00:24:45Well...
00:24:47I borrowed some money from a friend
00:24:49to help pay off the debts.
00:24:51What friend could afford
00:24:53to lend you so much money at once?
00:24:57Since we went bankrupt,
00:24:59all our old friends have disappeared.
00:25:01Well, Mom...
00:25:05You don't have to worry about it.
00:25:07Elisa.
00:25:11Hey.
00:25:13Elisa, what took you so long?
00:25:15What's up?
00:25:17There's a school reunion party this weekend.
00:25:19They notified us in the group,
00:25:21but I figured you haven't read it yet
00:25:23since you didn't respond,
00:25:25so I'm just giving you a heads up.
00:25:27It's been ages.
00:25:29Why is there a high school reunion party
00:25:31out of nowhere?
00:25:33Here's the monthly report
00:25:35How about we grab a drink tonight?
00:25:37I know a good place.
00:25:39I actually have plans tonight.
00:25:41If you don't have anything else,
00:25:43you can leave.
00:25:45Lucian, it's been so long...
00:25:47Summer, I said I'm busy.
00:25:49Please leave.
00:25:53Hold on.
00:25:55Will you be at the high school reunion?
00:25:57Summer, how many ways do I have to say this?
00:25:59I'm busy.
00:26:01Leave.
00:26:03Lucian,
00:26:05you have to be so gentle with me,
00:26:07but ever since Elisa came,
00:26:09I've become colder and colder.
00:26:11Elisa,
00:26:13I don't think I realize it.
00:26:19I wonder if Lucian received the invitation
00:26:21to the reunion.
00:26:23Is he going?
00:26:25Something on your mind?
00:26:27It's not a big deal,
00:26:29but there's a high school reunion party later.
00:26:31Are you going?
00:26:33I don't know.
00:26:35I know you made a good point,
00:26:37but we don't really see each other that often.
00:26:39I thought it'd be nice to get together.
00:26:41You know what?
00:26:43I actually have a meeting.
00:26:45I think I'll pass.
00:26:47Okay. Yeah, that's fine.
00:26:49I'll send you something else since I can't be there.
00:26:51You really don't have to do that.
00:26:53And I know it's far, so...
00:26:55take this.
00:26:57Lucian, that's way too expensive.
00:26:59I'm just gonna take the subway.
00:27:01Elisa,
00:27:03I'm capable of offering you a better life.
00:27:05Why would you take the subway?
00:27:07Consider this a gift.
00:27:09Lucian is acting like
00:27:11he actually likes me.
00:27:13What game is he playing?
00:27:15Come on. Take it.
00:27:19You're just giving this to me?
00:27:21Well, I'm your husband.
00:27:23Legally speaking,
00:27:25what's mine is yours.
00:27:27Thank you, then.
00:27:33This is a customized version.
00:27:35How did he cost millions?
00:27:37Jesus, Elisa!
00:27:39If it weren't for you, I'd never get to be in such a luxurious car.
00:27:41Seems like Mr. Houghton
00:27:43really is madly in love with you.
00:27:45You know, I'm still at the point where I'm wondering if he even likes me.
00:27:47You guys treat me well, though.
00:27:49You know all of his passwords
00:27:51are still Summer's birthday.
00:27:53I don't know.
00:27:55I'm probably just overthinking.
00:27:57Maybe it's, um,
00:27:59a misunderstanding or a coincidence?
00:28:01I feel like
00:28:03Mr. Houghton is quite cold to Summer.
00:28:05I don't think he's into her.
00:28:07No, that's just because he's trying to keep the down-low at work.
00:28:09Well, even if he were
00:28:11trying to keep it that way...
00:28:13Do you know how that saying goes?
00:28:15We can try to hide our feelings,
00:28:17but we forget that our eyes can speak.
00:28:19The way he looks at Summer
00:28:21doesn't feel right.
00:28:23You know what I mean?
00:28:25I have absolutely no idea what you mean, because you sound crazy.
00:28:27You... I'm done.
00:28:29You're so mean. I can't.
00:28:31Well, we're late, so we have to go.
00:28:33Okay.
00:28:39Hello, everyone.
00:28:41Long time no see.
00:28:43So sorry we're late.
00:28:45So, it's Elisa.
00:28:47What is it?
00:28:49The poor student back then
00:28:51Did you make us wait on purpose?
00:28:57Did you plan to arrive late
00:28:59deliberately to attract our attention?
00:29:01Elisa, you were still
00:29:03using the same lame tricks as back then,
00:29:05weren't you?
00:29:07Who wants to pay attention to her?
00:29:09After all this year,
00:29:11she still speaks of poverty.
00:29:13Hey, don't say such words.
00:29:15What if she's
00:29:17doing well and busy with work?
00:29:19Maybe she didn't mean to be late.
00:29:21Her? She's probably a low-level employee.
00:29:23How well could she be doing?
00:29:25What do you mean by that?
00:29:27Elisa and I were just...
00:29:31Oh, Summer's here.
00:29:33Although it's been years since we graduated,
00:29:35she's only been more gorgeous.
00:29:37Summer is both the daughter of the noble family
00:29:39and Mr. Hopper's
00:29:41childhood friend.
00:29:43Yes, Summer is more than jealous now.
00:29:45Summer, come on. Sit next to me.
00:29:47I reserve roommates.
00:29:53Sorry I'm late.
00:29:55Traffic was terrible.
00:29:57Never mind. It's our honor to have you.
00:29:59Summer, did you buy a new sports car?
00:30:01Not really.
00:30:03I just picked this one out of the garage
00:30:05because I was in a hurry.
00:30:07I'm actually tired of driving it.
00:30:09I haven't used it in...
00:30:11A sports car? That's something I can never afford.
00:30:13It's not that much.
00:30:15It's only a few hundred thousand.
00:30:17Wow.
00:30:19Summer sure is rich.
00:30:21Such an expensive car, but
00:30:23it's not enough for her.
00:30:25Naturally. Don't you know who Summer is?
00:30:27Such a lottery card
00:30:29and nothing but to torture her.
00:30:31She can have as many as she wants.
00:30:33What a bunch of snobs.
00:30:35Shh. Elisa,
00:30:37what car did you drive here?
00:30:41She? How could a poor girl
00:30:43like her afford a car?
00:30:45She must be taking the subway.
00:30:47What, does she race? That's the reason?
00:30:49Elisa, the subway
00:30:51will soon stop running.
00:30:53Do you want me to give you a ride?
00:30:55Oh, Summer. You're still so kind-hearted.
00:30:57But how could somebody
00:30:59as low as her
00:31:01be riding in your luxury car?
00:31:03Be careful not to get her
00:31:05power distancial over you.
00:31:07It probably won't come off.
00:31:09What nonsense are you talking about?
00:31:11Anyway, it wouldn't matter if she did.
00:31:13She drove here.
00:31:15And a famous new limited edition
00:31:17convertible.
00:31:19Something more expensive than you can imagine.
00:31:21Oh my god.
00:31:23What a big mouth.
00:31:25What the hell? It really is a convertible.
00:31:27Impossible.
00:31:29She can never afford that.
00:31:31Elisa, did you rent a car
00:31:33just to show off at the reunion?
00:31:35It's not rented.
00:31:37Not rented? Who are you trying to fool?
00:31:39You can't afford even the cheapest
00:31:41one of such cars, even if you sell yourself.
00:31:43Summer,
00:31:45is Hawthorne Group really that good?
00:31:47Even a little employee
00:31:49can afford such a fancy convertible?
00:31:51Hardly. Although Hawthorne
00:31:53Group does have good benefits,
00:31:55it's not to that extent.
00:31:57With her salary,
00:31:59she could probably never afford it.
00:32:01Even if she worked herself to death.
00:32:03Elisa,
00:32:05we're all classmates here.
00:32:07You shouldn't pretend to be rich.
00:32:09It probably costs half your salary to rent that car.
00:32:11It's best not to be so vain.
00:32:13What's the point of it? It's like the Cinderella.
00:32:15It will revert to its true form after midnight.
00:32:17Elisa, don't you find yourself
00:32:19ridiculous?
00:32:21Of course. I can never disguise to be rich.
00:32:23I'm sorry to disappoint you,
00:32:25but it's not rented.
00:32:27It's a gift from my husband.
00:32:31Mr. Hawthorne, Mr. Walker's arrived.
00:32:33The meeting can start anytime.
00:32:35Oh hey, by the way,
00:32:37my wife is having a class reunion tomorrow.
00:32:39Invite someone over for some fine wine.
00:32:41Yes, Mr. Hawthorne.
00:32:43I'm sorry to disappoint you,
00:32:45but it's not rented.
00:32:47It's a gift from my husband.
00:32:49Elisa, what's the point of lying?
00:32:51First you rent a car
00:32:53to show off at the reunion,
00:32:55and now you're making up a story
00:32:57about a wealthy husband?
00:32:59Are you living in a novel?
00:33:01Summer, aren't we colleagues with Elisa?
00:33:03You should know if she's married or not,
00:33:05right?
00:33:07It's not my business.
00:33:09Even though I'm her superior,
00:33:11I try not to pry.
00:33:13Although I don't think so.
00:33:15If she really had a rich husband,
00:33:17why would she work
00:33:19for so little salary?
00:33:21So, Elisa is lying
00:33:23again?
00:33:25She is so shameless.
00:33:27Amelia, I think you
00:33:29should stay away from Elisa.
00:33:31She got a bad influence
00:33:33on you.
00:33:35And what do you know?
00:33:37Elisa's husband.
00:33:39Okay, okay.
00:33:41You guys keep partying.
00:33:43Amelia, let's go.
00:33:49Excuse me.
00:33:51These are the wines set by Mr. Hawthorne.
00:33:55Oh.
00:33:571982 Lafite?
00:33:59But we didn't order
00:34:01these wines.
00:34:03I'll send you something else since I can't be there.
00:34:05The wine is for me, right?
00:34:07He did say he would send something over.
00:34:09This is too much.
00:34:11Summer, this wine must be a special gift
00:34:13from Mr. Hawthorne for you.
00:34:15Yeah, the only one among us
00:34:17who deserves such attention from Mr. Hawthorne
00:34:19is Summer.
00:34:21Who else could it be?
00:34:23This wine is for Mr. Hawthorne too.
00:34:25Summer and Mr. Hawthorne have been a perfect match since school
00:34:27and now they're still so affectionate.
00:34:29I wonder if they're going to get married soon.
00:34:31Of course. Summer's future
00:34:33president's wife.
00:34:35Unlike someone.
00:34:37Oh, Elisa, you see?
00:34:39You can never
00:34:41shake my bond with Lucian.
00:34:43Alright, everyone. Since Lucian sent
00:34:45over these wines, let's enjoy them
00:34:47together. But Summer,
00:34:49this is 1982 Lafite.
00:34:51I think some people here
00:34:53are not worthy of drinking
00:34:55such fine wine.
00:34:57They say cast your pearls before swine.
00:34:59Even if we let Elisa drink it, she wouldn't know
00:35:01how good Lafite is.
00:35:03That's true. To pay it to her would be
00:35:05a waste. You're all wrong.
00:35:07This wine is for me.
00:35:11This wine is for me.
00:35:13Did I hear that right?
00:35:15You said that this wine was given to you by Mr.
00:35:17Hawthorne? It's hilarious.
00:35:19Do you think you're Mrs. Hawthorne?
00:35:21Mrs. Hawthorne
00:35:23Miss Summer, are you daydreaming,
00:35:25Elisa? Do you think you're
00:35:27some Cinderella who married a president?
00:35:29Elisa, are you
00:35:31jealous of me? Not only jealous
00:35:33of my family background and my
00:35:35job, now you're jealous of my
00:35:37relationship with Lucian and want him to name the
00:35:39wines that are given to me.
00:35:41Don't you know that even if you try
00:35:43your hardest, what's not meant
00:35:45for you will never, ever
00:35:47be yours?
00:35:49Oh, Summer, don't ruin your mood over
00:35:51a rat in the gutter.
00:35:53She's just a clown. How can you be so
00:35:55confident that the wine is for Summer?
00:35:57When Summer and Mr. Hawthorne
00:35:59started dating, Elisa
00:36:01was somewhere picking up trash.
00:36:03All you ever do is
00:36:05talk. Why the hell would I lie about something
00:36:07like this? Who knows?
00:36:09After all, we don't understand how the poor think.
00:36:11Hey, waiter, tell us.
00:36:13Who does Mr. Hawthorne
00:36:15give this wine to?
00:36:17Yeah, tell us. Who does
00:36:19Mr. Hawthorne give this wine to?
00:36:21So that Summer can start daydreaming.
00:36:23These wines were given
00:36:25to Mrs. Elisabelle
00:36:27by Mr. Hawthorne.
00:36:31What?
00:36:33This wine is from Lucian to Elisa?
00:36:35There must have been a mistake.
00:36:37Check it again. How could Mr.
00:36:39Hawthorne possibly send wine to Elisa?
00:36:41Yes, this is indeed
00:36:43the wine sent from Mr. Lucian
00:36:45to Elisabelle.
00:36:47How could that be?
00:36:49What makes Elisa so special
00:36:51that Lucian would treat her like this?
00:36:53Why are you all so silent
00:36:55now? You were so
00:36:57talkative and confident before.
00:36:59Is it because you're
00:37:01embarrassed? Okay, Amelia.
00:37:03Yeah, like I said, I don't need to learn.
00:37:05Mr. Hawthorne would never
00:37:07send wine to this bitch.
00:37:09Could it be...
00:37:11Wait. What now, womania?
00:37:13Elisa, you really are
00:37:15desperate for attention, aren't you?
00:37:17After being exposed about
00:37:19the car keys, you've
00:37:21resorted to hiring actors
00:37:23to put on a show for us.
00:37:25Oh my god. Cominia, you really are imaginative.
00:37:27You should become a screenwriter.
00:37:29You've really got a hit on your hands.
00:37:31What? Are you getting agitated because I've
00:37:33uncovered the truth and here I am
00:37:35stating the facts?
00:37:37How is that imagination?
00:37:39Cominia, I think you've
00:37:41got a point. After all,
00:37:43lowly people
00:37:45are always so
00:37:47desperate for attention.
00:37:49Right?
00:37:51Summer
00:37:53makes a valid point. Mr. Hawthorne
00:37:55and Elisa are from completely different worlds.
00:37:57How could he possibly send her wine?
00:37:59Go home
00:38:01and pay your actors.
00:38:03Elisa, I think there's
00:38:05something you should know. If we hadn't gone
00:38:07to the same high school together,
00:38:09you wouldn't have any chance of
00:38:11sitting here with us, having a meal,
00:38:13let alone getting to know
00:38:15Mr. Hawthorne.
00:38:17You all have gone too far.
00:38:19This is supposed to be a class reunion party
00:38:21and you're all targeting Elisa.
00:38:23What are you trying to do?
00:38:25What are we trying to do?
00:38:27She needs to know her place
00:38:29instead of deceiving us with lies
00:38:31again and again. How dare she
00:38:33do it and not admit it?
00:38:35Yes. Summer, as the saying goes,
00:38:37ugly people make more trouble
00:38:39but poor people
00:38:41make even more trouble.
00:38:43I couldn't care less what you think of me
00:38:45but I didn't hire actors
00:38:47for this. We are all
00:38:49regular employees of the hotel. We cannot
00:38:51be hired as private actors.
00:38:53You must have misunderstood.
00:39:01Misunderstood?
00:39:03Elisa,
00:39:05you really are hopeless.
00:39:07You found some actors and got
00:39:09two bottles of fake wine thinking
00:39:11you could show off at the reunion party?
00:39:23This cheap wine is only good for making noise
00:39:25when it shatters.
00:39:29With this order from
00:39:31President Hawthorne, I don't have to worry
00:39:33about my performance
00:39:35for the rest of the month. I think I'm gonna
00:39:37make Ms. Fair
00:39:39a VVVIP customer from now on.
00:39:43Hello?
00:39:45Oh good, Mr. Carlos. Ms. Fair is in trouble.
00:39:47What?
00:39:49I'm coming over. Damaging someone
00:39:51else's property? Lavinia, you have
00:39:53never been one to consider the consequences of doing
00:39:55whatever Summer tells you to do.
00:39:57How much can a fake bottle of
00:39:59wine be worth? I'll pay her
00:40:01and I'll pay for the remaining
00:40:03wine and I'll just buy them all
00:40:05so that she can smash them for fun.
00:40:09You're disgusting.
00:40:11We're ashamed to have you
00:40:13as a classmate. You don't
00:40:15deserve to be at our party. Security!
00:40:17Where's your security? How may I assist you?
00:40:19Well, we don't know who this woman is
00:40:21and I don't know how she got
00:40:23in here and I want her out
00:40:25of here. Well, this is
00:40:27Summer Hart, fiance
00:40:29of the president of Hawthorne's
00:40:31group. And having
00:40:33her here, we don't want to have any trouble.
00:40:35I see.
00:40:37Now, what are you doing?
00:40:41What is going on here?
00:40:43Who gave you permission to expel
00:40:45my esteemed guest?
00:40:49Did you just call
00:40:51Elisa an esteemed
00:40:53guest? Yes, I did.
00:40:55In fact,
00:40:57Ms. Vale is one
00:40:59of our VIP customers.
00:41:01That can't
00:41:03be possible. Her family went
00:41:05bankrupt years ago.
00:41:07She probably can't even afford to pay her rent.
00:41:09Let me correct myself.
00:41:11Not only is Ms. Vale
00:41:13our esteemed guest,
00:41:15not only is she our
00:41:17VVVIP customer,
00:41:19but the wine was arranged to be
00:41:21sent by President Hawthorne
00:41:23to her. Does my word
00:41:25count? Does it have any weight around
00:41:27here? Mr. Carlos,
00:41:29there must be some mistake.
00:41:31Well, the wine was personally
00:41:33arranged by President Hawthorne's
00:41:35personal assistant,
00:41:37Ronan. How could there
00:41:39possibly be a mistake?
00:41:41Summer, how could Mr.
00:41:43Hawthorne be sending wine
00:41:45to Elisa? How am I
00:41:47supposed to know what Lucian is thinking?
00:41:49You said that you would pay me back
00:41:51tenfold. Forget the tenfold.
00:41:53Just pay me the original price.
00:41:57Is Lucian going to be angry with me
00:41:59for this? Whatever. Let's just enjoy
00:42:01this moment. What's going on?
00:42:03Did President Hawthorne really send the wine
00:42:05to Elisa? I have no idea.
00:42:07Maybe Summer is
00:42:09just lying and she's
00:42:11being presumptuous about Mr. Hawthorne.
00:42:13So, Summer, what's the best way
00:42:15for you to pay me back for this?
00:42:19You should have seen the
00:42:21look on Summer's face when she tried to
00:42:23swipe her card. It was hilarious.
00:42:25Oh my gosh.
00:42:27Today we finally showed her who's boss.
00:42:29I know, but I feel like everyone
00:42:31knows that Summer is Lucian's dream girl.
00:42:33When he finds out I, the placeholder
00:42:35wife, am totally getting the...
00:42:37Legally, you are Mr. Hawthorne's
00:42:39wife. You are literally
00:42:41the President's wife. You have the high
00:42:43ground. What are you so afraid of?
00:42:45Come on. Let's go drink and celebrate.
00:42:47You actually want to drink right now?
00:42:49Yes. No. Yes.
00:42:51No.
00:42:53Okay, okay. It's my turn.
00:42:59Amelia,
00:43:01be honest with me, okay?
00:43:03What is it? I don't...I don't
00:43:05understand why Lucian wanted to marry me.
00:43:07I don't know. It's just...
00:43:09I'm starting to feel like maybe he...
00:43:11Like...
00:43:13Is he actually someone you...
00:43:15Elisa, I have
00:43:17something I have to attend to, so I'm
00:43:19going to be leaving now. What?
00:43:21Wait. No.
00:43:23Are you gossiping about me behind my back
00:43:25while you're drunk?
00:43:29Are you real?
00:43:31Or am I dreaming?
00:43:33Well, no. You're not dreaming. I'm actually here to take you home.
00:43:35Big gossip.
00:43:37No. I don't want to go home.
00:43:39I want to drink more.
00:43:41Elisa, you've had too much.
00:43:43You're going to have a headache tomorrow.
00:43:45Who knew Mr. Hawthorne was so
00:43:47gentle and thoughtful? Come on.
00:43:49I can't walk,
00:43:51so I could just live here.
00:43:53Okay.
00:43:55I will carry you back then.
00:43:57Come on.
00:43:59Ready?
00:44:01Three, two, one.
00:44:03Okay. Here we go.
00:44:11Mr. Hawthorne, here I am
00:44:13working overtime in the middle of the night
00:44:15driving at this speed.
00:44:17Mr. Hawthorne, Mr. Hawthorne.
00:44:19Lucian, why did you marry me?
00:44:23Lucian, why did you marry me?
00:44:25Actually, I've
00:44:27been in love with you for 10 years
00:44:29ever since I first saw you.
00:44:33Back then, the internal struggles
00:44:35in the Hawthorne family were severe
00:44:37and my father was also.
00:44:41Lucian,
00:44:43let your father rest in peace.
00:44:47You're all I've got now.
00:44:53Anyway, I didn't dare
00:44:55to show you even a sliver of my
00:44:57feelings for you. But the hatred between
00:44:59our parents made me hide my feelings for you.
00:45:01Could you give me a chance?
00:45:05Yeah.
00:45:07Well, I'll tell you this another time.
00:45:09Okay.
00:45:15Elisa always goes against me
00:45:17making me embarrassed. She's the
00:45:19worst! I have an idea
00:45:21that doesn't require us to get involved
00:45:23and can make Elisa leave
00:45:25Mr. Hawthorne. Oh?
00:45:27What is it?
00:45:29What is it?
00:45:31Everyone knows that Mr. Hawthorne
00:45:33is devoted to his mother.
00:45:35If we tell her about Elisa seducing
00:45:37Mr. Hawthorne
00:45:39then... Good idea.
00:45:41Mia is the matriarch
00:45:43of the Hawthorne family.
00:45:45She's very clever.
00:45:47But she never got involved
00:45:49in the family business and
00:45:51she's lived in seclusion abroad for years.
00:45:53Even I haven't spoken
00:45:55to her. All we need to do
00:45:57is send an anonymous
00:45:59text message to Mrs. Hawthorne.
00:46:01Then we just need to wait for Elisa
00:46:03to be expelled from the Hawthorne family.
00:46:07I
00:46:11went through great lengths
00:46:13to get this but I never contacted
00:46:15her because I didn't have a reason.
00:46:17Do it for me.
00:46:19When Elisa is dealt with
00:46:21you will be rewarded.
00:46:27It's my pleasure to help you Miss Hart.
00:46:29I just hope
00:46:31that when you become
00:46:33the president's wife
00:46:35you won't forget me. Of course not.
00:46:43Matriarch Hawthorne
00:46:45you received
00:46:47an anonymous message on your phone.
00:46:49What does it say?
00:46:51It says there's a vixen around Mr. Hawthorne.
00:46:53She torments him so much that he's
00:46:55been ignoring his Hawthorne group affairs.
00:47:01Book me a flight.
00:47:03I need to go back immediately.
00:47:09I'm going to be late again today.
00:47:11Oh my god.
00:47:13I'm so sorry.
00:47:15You need to pay for this.
00:47:17It was you that
00:47:19bumped into me and it was just a light touch.
00:47:21I have no idea how you must have fallen like that.
00:47:23Are you trying to leave me? Because I don't know
00:47:25what's the matter with your generation.
00:47:27Having no respect for the elderly.
00:47:29How did I...
00:47:31Okay.
00:47:33Here, can I help you get up first?
00:47:35Yeah.
00:47:37Well, are you going to help me up?
00:47:39Are you okay?
00:47:41No, I am not okay.
00:47:43My leg really hurts. I don't think I'm going to be able to walk.
00:47:45You need to take responsibility for this.
00:47:47How can a young girl be so bad?
00:47:49She hit somebody.
00:47:51She doesn't want to take responsibility.
00:47:53She looks good, but she's ugly on the inside.
00:47:55No, no, no. The truth is...
00:47:57Never mind.
00:47:59Okay.
00:48:01Ma'am, do you have your family's contact information?
00:48:03I can help you reach out to them.
00:48:05Family?
00:48:07Who are my family?
00:48:09I don't remember.
00:48:13You don't remember who your family is?
00:48:17I don't remember anything.
00:48:19What do I do?
00:48:21You don't remember where you live?
00:48:23I don't remember anything.
00:48:25What do I do?
00:48:27Do I take you to the hospital and then to a police station?
00:48:31No, no, no, no, no.
00:48:33I'm not going to a hospital or a police station.
00:48:35I don't trust anybody.
00:48:37Oh, no. I'm going to be late.
00:48:39But there's the weekly department meeting today.
00:48:41I can't take leave.
00:48:43Okay.
00:48:45Ma'am, since you're not going anywhere,
00:48:47how about I take you to my company office?
00:48:49And then after work,
00:48:51I'll help you find your family.
00:48:53Fine.
00:48:55I have a responsibility for this.
00:48:57You cannot leave my side.
00:48:59Okay, okay.
00:49:01Ow, ow, ow, ow.
00:49:03What? My mom's returned home?
00:49:05Yes, Mr. Hawthorne.
00:49:07According to Matriarch Robinson's assistant,
00:49:09Matriarch Robinson received an anonymous text message about you
00:49:11and rushed back into the country.
00:49:13What was the text?
00:49:15It said, Mr. Hawthorne, you've been enchanted by seductors.
00:49:17She's always had a temper.
00:49:19Okay. I'm going to attend the business meeting personally.
00:49:21Are you afraid that Matriarch Robinson
00:49:23I mean, yeah, unless there's some unexpected twist.
00:49:25She'll probably be there.
00:49:27All right, Mr. Hawthorne. I'll arrange it right away.
00:49:31Mom, please don't scare off the wife I finally got.
00:49:37How did the matter about Matriarch Robinson go?
00:49:39Rest assured, Miss Hart,
00:49:41it's said that Matriarch Robinson
00:49:43was furious upon hearing the news
00:49:45and returned home immediately.
00:49:47Really?
00:49:49Then Elisa will be out of your soup.
00:49:51Yes.
00:49:53Congratulations in advance, Miss Hart.
00:49:55Let's go.
00:49:57There's a weekly meeting of the business department
00:49:59and Lucia will be there personally.
00:50:01We can't afford to make a mistake.
00:50:03Um, Amelia's gone on a work trip
00:50:05so you can sit in her spot while she's gone.
00:50:11If you get bored,
00:50:13you can just play on my phone.
00:50:15Okay, and we have to keep our voices down
00:50:17because people are working.
00:50:19I just want to know if I can pay Miss Hart.
00:50:21Everyone, the weekly meeting is about to begin.
00:50:23Elisa,
00:50:25why did you bring a cleaner to work?
00:50:27Elisa really treats the company as her home
00:50:29bringing in anyone she likes.
00:50:31Seriously, so filthy.
00:50:33It's disgusting just looking at them.
00:50:39Elisa,
00:50:41our entire department is filled up with work
00:50:43and you?
00:50:45If we have to delay our work,
00:50:47are you going to take responsibility for that?
00:50:49Miss Hart, this woman might have some trouble
00:50:51with her memory so
00:50:53I'm only bringing her here temporarily.
00:50:55I was going to help her find her family after work
00:50:57and if she could just sit here for the time being
00:50:59I promise that she won't disturb anybody.
00:51:01You mean you brought this old hag
00:51:03in off the street
00:51:05and she's also sick?
00:51:07I think you're crazy.
00:51:09Picking up an old hag like this,
00:51:11wreaking of poverty, stinking up the whole office.
00:51:13Where did you find her?
00:51:15What if this old hag
00:51:17isn't just mentally ill but also could
00:51:19infect us all with some disease?
00:51:21Yeah, Miss Hart, I really think we should
00:51:23call a cleaner later to disinfect everywhere
00:51:25this lady's been.
00:51:27How could all of you be so cruel?
00:51:29Don't you all have families too?
00:51:31What if one of them had lost their memory
00:51:33and needed your help?
00:51:35This girl, she's interesting.
00:51:37I'm not the one who's sick.
00:51:39You're sick!
00:51:41Disgusting.
00:51:43Our company has rules and regulations.
00:51:45It's not a place for you to show your kindness.
00:51:47Get this old hag
00:51:49out of here now.
00:51:53Get this old hag out of here
00:51:55now.
00:51:57Miss Hart, there is nothing in our company policy
00:51:59that discourages helping somebody in need.
00:52:01In fact, it encourages us to do so.
00:52:03Oh, there isn't? Well, now there is.
00:52:07Do you have a problem?
00:52:09Miss Hart is a senior leader in our company.
00:52:11She didn't represent our president,
00:52:13and now she just happened to add another company rule.
00:52:15Even if she asks security
00:52:17to drag you out, there's nothing you can do.
00:52:19Understand?
00:52:21How come the employees
00:52:23of the business department are like this?
00:52:25Lucian will be here soon
00:52:27from the business department.
00:52:29Elisa, you have two minutes.
00:52:31If you don't get this old hag out of here,
00:52:33I will fire you.
00:52:35You can go beg on the street with her.
00:52:37Maybe then you'll make more money than you do now.
00:52:39God, Summer,
00:52:41you are really pushing it.
00:52:43Tell me, what else can you do besides flaunt your authority?
00:52:45I'm reporting you to Mr. Hawthorne.
00:52:47As a low-level
00:52:49employee, you have contradicted
00:52:51me one too many times.
00:52:53And now you dare go see Mr. Hawthorne?
00:52:55You're fired.
00:52:59Two years. Two years away from this company,
00:53:01and I never thought that the
00:53:03business department of the Hawthorne group
00:53:05would decay into this state.
00:53:09Elisa will not be fired.
00:53:11You will.
00:53:15You will.
00:53:17Matthew, did I just hear this old
00:53:19hag say she's going to fire us?
00:53:21She has a problem with her brain.
00:53:23That's why she's talking crazy.
00:53:25It's hard for our president's wife
00:53:27to be firing her.
00:53:29Too ridiculous.
00:53:31Besides memory loss, is she also crazy?
00:53:33Why are they saying
00:53:35president's wife?
00:53:37Isn't it you?
00:53:39Are all of you quite finished?
00:53:41I can't believe how shallow you are.
00:53:43You are kind and righteous.
00:53:45You never use Lucian's identity to gain power.
00:53:47But you?
00:53:49Okay, ma'am, it's okay.
00:53:51I'm going to help you find your family. Let's go.
00:53:53Why do we need to leave? Why don't they leave first?
00:53:55Fine.
00:53:57Since you're determined to cling to us.
00:53:59Matthew, get this old hag out of here
00:54:01right now.
00:54:07You've got guts.
00:54:09I'll see who dares
00:54:11to kick me out of here today.
00:54:19You actually
00:54:21dared to hit me?
00:54:23Miss Hart?
00:54:25Elisa, this woman attacked my subordinate.
00:54:27I could have her sent to a mental hospital.
00:54:29You don't have the authority.
00:54:31Of course I do.
00:54:33She hit my subordinate.
00:54:35I can reasonably deduce she has some
00:54:37mental issues. How many times do I have to
00:54:39tell you? Yes, this woman is clearly sick,
00:54:41but naturally I'm going to find her family
00:54:43to let them handle it.
00:54:45If you and Matthew hadn't instigated this,
00:54:47none of this would have happened.
00:54:49This woman's actions can only be described as self-defense.
00:54:51Yeah, I think you're the one who's crazy.
00:54:53You don't respect the elderly.
00:54:55You're not qualified to be a leader.
00:54:57I don't know why your company's higher-ups even
00:54:59chose you.
00:55:01Oh, are you
00:55:03angry?
00:55:07Matthew,
00:55:09make these two disappear from my sight!
00:55:11Security, throw both of them
00:55:13out of the platform group.
00:55:17With me here, I can't drive you away.
00:55:19I tell you, I
00:55:21am... Summer, what are you doing?
00:55:25Summer, what are you doing?
00:55:29Oh my God, why does Lucian
00:55:31come to the business department every day?
00:55:33Fine, I guess we'll have another
00:55:35showdown. Explain.
00:55:37Well, it's like this. Elisa brought this woman
00:55:39in off the street, who smells terrible,
00:55:41and insisted on having her in the office,
00:55:43which was disrupting everyone's
00:55:45work, so I'm only thinking of the company.
00:55:47Yes, Mr. Hawthorne, what if
00:55:49she has some contagious disease
00:55:51and infects everyone? I take full
00:55:53responsibility for this incident.
00:55:55If the company wishes, I can
00:55:57hand in my resignation.
00:55:59Hawthorne Group is not an impersonal
00:56:01company. Elisa's
00:56:03done well.
00:56:05From today forward, you'll be promoted
00:56:07to team leader, and oversee projects
00:56:09as a reward.
00:56:11Mr. Hawthorne, I'm...
00:56:13I'm afraid I'm not qualified for this position.
00:56:15I believe everyone
00:56:17here knows your abilities well.
00:56:19As for you,
00:56:21you can go to HR, and they'll
00:56:23handle your resignation.
00:56:25He is the backbone
00:56:27of the business department. If you fire
00:56:29him, there'll be no elites left.
00:56:31Summer, you've managed the business department into a mess.
00:56:33You're responsible for that.
00:56:35I promise to manage the business department
00:56:37better. This won't happen again.
00:56:39Matthew, why have
00:56:41you not apologized to this madame and miss
00:56:43Vail yet?
00:56:47Matthew, why have you not apologized
00:56:49to this madame and miss Vail yet?
00:56:53I'm sorry.
00:56:55Please forgive me.
00:56:57Why are you apologizing first? This one almost
00:56:59just put me into a mental hospital.
00:57:01You old hag. How dare you ask
00:57:03me to apologize?
00:57:05Miss Hart?
00:57:07Apologize.
00:57:09Sorry.
00:57:11I'm sorry, I can't hear you.
00:57:17I was wrong.
00:57:19I'm sorry.
00:57:21And you guys?
00:57:25I'm sorry.
00:57:27Sorry.
00:57:31Have I been misunderstanding him all this time?
00:57:33Could it be?
00:57:35Well, it's the end of that matter. I'll take care of this
00:57:37lady, and
00:57:39help her find her family.
00:57:43Listen, why did you
00:57:45call me over? What if Elisa finds out?
00:57:47Mom, what exactly are you trying to do?
00:57:49I want to
00:57:51test my daughter-in-law.
00:57:53You tested her enough today.
00:57:55She's great. You saw that.
00:57:59Oh,
00:58:01Lucian.
00:58:03You're quite loyal, aren't you?
00:58:05It's enough.
00:58:09Fine.
00:58:11Look, um, Elisa
00:58:13is a very good girl, but
00:58:15it seems she doesn't even know that
00:58:17you like her, nor does anyone else
00:58:19know that she's your wife.
00:58:21Why are you keeping this marriage
00:58:23so secretive?
00:58:25I don't know how to tell her.
00:58:27I'm afraid that if we make our relationship public,
00:58:29pressure will be too much for her.
00:58:31Lucian,
00:58:33when did you become such a coward?
00:58:35Look, if you like her,
00:58:37just confess boldly.
00:58:39You don't want to wait till
00:58:41Elisa falls for some other guy
00:58:43before you feel regret, do you?
00:58:45Regret what?
00:58:47Nothing.
00:58:49Please, come sit.
00:58:53Elisa,
00:58:55I'm sorry
00:58:57I deceptive earlier.
00:58:59I...
00:59:01I'm actually Lucian's mother.
00:59:03What?
00:59:07Please, let me explain.
00:59:09Um, a few days ago,
00:59:11I got an anonymous text
00:59:13saying that some woman was
00:59:15trying to seduce Lucian,
00:59:17and I got afraid that
00:59:19he might get tricked.
00:59:21Anyway, Elisa, can you please
00:59:23forgive me?
00:59:27Yes, Mrs. Hoffman,
00:59:29I understand you're just looking out for your son,
00:59:31but I am concerned that the person
00:59:33who sent that text must have had bad intentions.
00:59:35I have an idea of your subject.
00:59:37Go ahead.
00:59:39Good. And Elisa,
00:59:41I heard that Lucian plans on taking you
00:59:43to a very fancy dinner tonight.
00:59:45Okay.
00:59:47There's actually something I want to talk to you about.
00:59:59Lucian, why aren't you eating?
01:00:03Yeah.
01:00:05Of course.
01:00:09Elisa, what do you want to ask me?
01:00:11If you want a divorce, it's not going to happen.
01:00:15Why would you think I want a divorce?
01:00:21Okay.
01:00:23I've been meaning to ask you.
01:00:25You've liked Summer
01:00:27for ten years.
01:00:29I mean, why would you marry me?
01:00:31Why protect me at every turn?
01:00:33Hold on.
01:00:35You think I've liked Summer
01:00:37for ten years?
01:00:39Judging by his reaction,
01:00:41he must have been caught off guard.
01:00:43Elisa, you're being too presumptuous.
01:00:45Seriously, why would I have liked her for ten years?
01:00:47Elisa,
01:00:49I've liked you for ten years.
01:00:51What?
01:00:55How could that possibly be?
01:00:57I fell for you.
01:00:59But because of the
01:01:01conflict between our parents,
01:01:03I chose to get home.
01:01:05I wanted to show you
01:01:07that I cared for you, but I couldn't.
01:01:09I was afraid that it would
01:01:11put you in danger.
01:01:13I'm really sorry, Elisa.
01:01:15All these years, I've
01:01:17suppressed my feelings for you.
01:01:19I fought tooth and nail
01:01:21to be the head of the Hawthorne family.
01:01:25And now it's taken me a decade
01:01:27to fully stand by you like this.
01:01:29So why now?
01:01:31I was afraid if I told you
01:01:33you didn't like me,
01:01:35we wouldn't even be colleagues anymore.
01:01:37Elisa, what's wrong?
01:01:39So when you sat next to me all those years ago,
01:01:41it wasn't because you didn't like your food?
01:01:45Hey, I, uh,
01:01:47don't really like this.
01:01:49Yeah, I...
01:01:51I'm really sorry I shouldn't...
01:01:53couldn't show you my feelings in the proper way.
01:01:57But then...
01:01:59why did you write some of that love letter back then?
01:02:01What love letter?
01:02:03I don't know.
01:02:05I just...
01:02:07I don't know.
01:02:09I just...
01:02:11I...
01:02:13I...
01:02:15I...
01:02:17What love letter back then?
01:02:19What love letter?
01:02:21I only remember delivering a party invitation
01:02:23to her from my parents.
01:02:25Well, why are all your passwords
01:02:27Summer's birthday?
01:02:29You mean 0903?
01:02:31What does that have to do with Summer?
01:02:33I don't even know her birthday.
01:02:35So then what's 0903 to you?
01:02:37Elisa, 0903. September 3rd.
01:02:39It's the day we first met.
01:02:41So it was...
01:02:43it was all just a misunderstanding?
01:02:47Listen,
01:02:49I love you.
01:02:51I know I tricked you into marrying me.
01:02:53Feelings for you
01:02:55are absolutely true.
01:02:57So, can you try to accept me?
01:03:01I know that our marriage started as a contract
01:03:03but it feels real to me now.
01:03:07I love you.
01:03:09I want to be with you.
01:03:11I want to be with you now and I want to be with you
01:03:13when we're older.
01:03:15I love you.
01:03:25You're finally mine.
01:03:29Yours.
01:03:41Hey,
01:03:43Hey,
01:03:45from now on, we're true husband and wife.
01:03:47We don't have to keep our relationship secret
01:03:49in front of our colleagues anymore.
01:03:51Okay.
01:03:55Lucian, I...
01:03:57Elise, you...
01:03:59Summer, I'd like you to meet my wife.
01:04:01What?
01:04:03Elisa and I have actually been married for a long time
01:04:05so you don't have to send those
01:04:07pervasive text messages to my mom anymore.
01:04:09We all like Elisa.
01:04:11So no matter how much you try to sow discord between us,
01:04:13it's never going to work.
01:04:15What text messages? I...
01:04:17I have the evidence, Summer.
01:04:21Now, considering the relationship
01:04:23between our families, I'm going to ask you
01:04:25to go ahead and submit your resignation from your team.
01:04:27As for everyone else,
01:04:29you all get off
01:04:31an hour early today.
01:04:33And you're invited to dinner with my wife.
01:04:37Yay!
