00:00:00Who's there?
00:00:24Miss Lowell, did you already forget about the man who helped you out?
00:00:28Mr. Musk, I don't know what you're talking about.
00:00:35Playing dumb? Then what about you calling my name 78 times that night?
00:00:43Please have some respect. Mr. Musk, I am with your nephew now.
00:00:49Oh, really? Does Evan know that last month on the 18th that you were at the club entrance begging me?
00:01:09Welcome, sir. This way, please.
00:01:13Sir, please take me.
00:01:19Virginity for sale. $500,000 in nonium.
00:01:27Please. I need the money.
00:01:44What's going on, Nina?
00:01:53What's going on, Nina? Should I come in?
00:01:59Sounds like my nephew's really worried about you.
00:02:02You think you want to know about that night?
00:02:04Don't, please.
00:02:07So, you really want to keep him in the dark, huh?
00:02:10Please.
00:02:12Wow, such a shame. I can't just cave every time you beg me.
00:02:22Evan!
00:02:24Oh, Uncle Ian, it's just you.
00:02:26Sorry, I thought Nina was in there.
00:02:31No worries. Just keep a close eye on her, Nina.
00:03:02Hey, don't worry, okay? Uncle Ian just invested in one of the best medical teams in the world. I'll make sure he helps you out.
00:03:22Uncle Ian!
00:03:32Wow.
00:03:40I hope I didn't disrupt you before.
00:03:50And this is?
00:03:52Oh, I'm sorry. I should have introduced you sooner.
00:03:56This is my girlfriend, Nina.
00:04:00Her mom's in the late stages of cancer. We're hoping you can help her out.
00:04:07Girlfriend?
00:04:12Nina, don't you think you should ask Uncle Ian for help?
00:04:18Mr. Musk, my mother.
00:04:21Your mother's surgery still hasn't been scheduled yet. I thought you had the money for that a few months ago.
00:04:28Whoa, wait. Uncle Ian, you knew Nina?
00:04:41Uncle Ian, you knew Nina?
00:04:50More than knowing her.
00:04:53Hotel Flex, room 808.
00:04:56Miss Lowell was begging for me all night.
00:04:59By the end, she could barely moan my name.
00:05:04Mr. Musk, I don't know what you're talking about. I don't know.
00:05:08Are you saying I'm wrong?
00:05:17Oh, my mistake.
00:05:24Cool.
00:05:27The Nina I was talking about was a little bunny in a wet dress.
00:05:34Someone way less dull than you.
00:05:39Yeah, Uncle Ian, you must be confusing her for someone else.
00:05:43Nina's still in college. She's nothing like those other party girls.
00:05:47Is that so? You must know her well.
00:05:50I've known Nina for a long time. I know her better than anyone.
00:05:55Must have made a mistake.
00:05:59So, how bad is your mom's condition?
00:06:05Kidney failure.
00:06:08We haven't been able to find a donor match yet.
00:06:12We're hoping that an artificial kidney can be an option.
00:06:21Uncle Ian, I know you have connections to artificial kidneys.
00:06:26Please, please make an exception.
00:06:30An exception? Please.
00:06:33I didn't budge for the bunny girl. Why should I for her?
00:06:39I have nothing to do with her.
00:06:44I don't have much time.
00:06:47Show me.
00:06:50Show me.
00:07:20Show me.
00:07:34Uncle Ian, please help her out.
00:07:37If all goes well, Nina agreed to marry me.
00:07:40Marry you?
00:07:44You sure you want to give her the Musk name?
00:07:46Mr. Musk, how much for the artificial kidney? I'll cover the costs.
00:07:53One million.
00:08:00There's a million in the account.
00:08:04I only need five hundred thousand.
00:08:07You're worth that much.
00:08:11Only one million?
00:08:14I'll pay for...
00:08:15Whoever gets treated pays the bill.
00:08:20No exceptions.
00:08:32Hey, hey, don't worry, okay?
00:08:35I'll figure something out.
00:08:37Okay? I'll figure something out.
00:08:39I'll make sure he helps you.
00:08:41If Evan found out I sold my virginity to his uncle, would he still treat me the same?
00:08:51Come see me.
00:08:59Evan, thanks for everything today.
00:09:02I should go.
00:09:03I'll walk you out.
00:09:05Nina!
00:09:14Get in.
00:09:26Mr. Musk, can you help me now?
00:09:29Help? I'm a businessman, not a charity.
00:09:32Everything is a transaction with me.
00:09:37Mr. Ian, I will do anything to pay you back.
00:09:43You know what I want from you.
00:09:58Is that enough?
00:10:03Did you really fall for Evan?
00:10:05You know I am dating your nephew.
00:10:09Your little crush on Evan won't stop me from loving you.
00:10:15You got in the car, so you made your choice.
00:10:27No, I can't. I can't do this.
00:10:29Save it.
00:10:30You think Evan would really help you if he knew you slept with me?
00:10:38I never force a woman. Get out.
00:10:44Go.
00:10:48Wait!
00:11:01Mom!
00:11:03Mom!
00:11:04Mom, come on.
00:11:11Mom, come on.
00:11:16Nina, what are you doing home so late?
00:11:21Thank God.
00:11:23How are you feeling?
00:11:25Did you take your medicine?
00:11:27No need.
00:11:29No need? It's pointless.
00:11:32I'm just throwing away money.
00:11:34That is nonsense.
00:11:37If you take these, I promise you will feel better. Okay?
00:11:45Nina, we have to face the fact.
00:11:48This illness, there's no cure for it.
00:11:52No! You are going to get better.
00:11:56He worked so hard for me.
00:11:59I feel so bad.
00:12:05Mom, are you okay?
00:12:12Mom! Mom, hang in there!
00:12:14Mom! Mom!
00:12:19Mom, hang in there.
00:12:21Mom!
00:12:26Mr. Musk, thank you so much for your generous donation.
00:12:31Is there anywhere else you'd like to see?
00:12:37Ah, yes.
00:12:39This mother and daughter have had it rough.
00:12:41They were approved for a kidney transplant, but their payment was too late.
00:12:44So the kidney went to someone else.
00:12:47Was it on the 18th of last month?
00:12:50Yes, that's correct.
00:12:54So naive.
00:12:56She thought $500,000 would be enough to pull her mother out of hell.
00:13:12Hey, hey!
00:13:14Don't worry, Nina.
00:13:21Nina, don't worry.
00:13:24Your mom's going to be okay.
00:13:26Evan, I'm sorry, but I have to save my mom.
00:13:31Even if it means becoming your uncle's toy, I have to do it.
00:13:37Doctor, how is my mom?
00:13:40The patient is no longer in immediate danger.
00:13:43But next time, she might not be as lucky.
00:13:46What about an artificial kidney?
00:13:48Artificial kidneys? Oh, that's a rare event.
00:13:52The Musk family are the only ones that are working on that.
00:13:55Can you help?
00:13:56I can.
00:13:59Nina, my uncle Ian needs a second doctor.
00:14:19Miss Lowell is here.
00:14:33So, have you made up your mind?
00:14:38Here.
00:14:40One million.
00:14:42Have you made up your mind?
00:14:53Here.
00:14:56One million.
00:15:05One million.
00:15:07I need to buy an artificial kidney.
00:15:11Miss Lowe.
00:15:13You sure know how to play the game.
00:15:15Using my money to save your mother.
00:15:18Pretty bold move.
00:15:20That's the money you gave me that night.
00:15:29Which night?
00:15:34Mr. Musk, that's the money I made from selling my virginity.
00:15:37I'm here to buy an artificial kidney.
00:15:40Virginity?
00:15:43But you cried so loud.
00:15:45My poor nephew.
00:15:46Must be so sad if he heard it.
00:15:50You know what I want.
00:15:53Don't come back until you've thought it over.
00:15:58Carl.
00:15:59Show her out.
00:16:11One million.
00:16:12Plus me.
00:16:14Mr. Musk, please.
00:16:17To purchase an artificial kidney.
00:16:23Interesting.
00:16:26So you don't care about Evan's feelings at all.
00:16:29As long as I can save my mother.
00:16:32Then nothing else matters.
00:16:35Then kiss me.
00:16:41Mr. Evan.
00:16:42You can go.
00:16:43Uncle Ian, I know you're back there.
00:16:46Scared already?
00:16:47Then nothing else matters.
00:16:48Please help me.
00:16:49I don't want to hurt Evan.
00:16:52I'll help you.
00:16:53But you gotta have the price.
00:16:56I'll do whatever it takes.
00:17:11Please help me.
00:17:12I don't want to hurt Evan.
00:17:15I'll help you.
00:17:17But you gotta have the price.
00:17:19I'll do whatever it takes.
00:17:36Oh, God.
00:17:40Evan, don't you have any manners?
00:17:43Uncle Ian.
00:17:44Can you please just help me save Nina's mom's life?
00:17:47I'll leave right now and I won't bother you again.
00:17:50Sorry, boss.
00:17:51I couldn't stop him.
00:17:55So, you really like her that much?
00:17:57Yes.
00:17:58Nina's the kindest, sweetest girl I've ever met.
00:18:02Besides, aren't you investing in artificial kidneys to save lives?
00:18:05Right?
00:18:06Fine.
00:18:07I'll help.
00:18:08Really?
00:18:09Uncle Ian, you'll really do it?
00:18:11I have to warn you.
00:18:12Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:18:13Go ahead, Uncle Ian.
00:18:14The artificial kidney tech is still in early stages.
00:18:17Her mom's body rejects it.
00:18:18She dies.
00:18:24You don't think she won't hate you for it?
00:18:26So, you still want to help her?
00:18:29Forget it.
00:18:31I'm not taking the blame if her mom dies.
00:18:34Look, her mom was already on the brink.
00:18:36If Nina ends up hating me over this,
00:18:38it won't be worth it.
00:18:40If anyone asks, I'll say it was your call.
00:18:43That way she can't be mad at me.
00:18:46It appears that you don't want to save a life after all.
00:18:50I don't.
00:18:51I don't.
00:18:53I don't.
00:18:54I don't.
00:18:55I don't.
00:18:56I don't.
00:18:57I don't.
00:19:00If it weren't for Nina,
00:19:01who would even take care of her old sick mom?
00:19:04Honestly, she might as well be dead.
00:19:07Everyone would be better off.
00:19:11Well,
00:19:13sorry for bothering you, Uncle Ian.
00:19:14I'll get out of here.
00:19:25Heard it all.
00:19:27He doesn't like you that much after all.
00:19:31I don't care if no one likes me.
00:19:36Good.
00:19:38Then just focus on being my girl.
00:19:44Rejected me, huh?
00:19:48It's funny at first, but then after a while,
00:19:50it just gets boring.
00:19:58If it saves my mom,
00:20:00what does it matter?
00:20:02My body's a small price to pay.
00:20:10Hey, Nina!
00:20:11Nina!
00:20:12I've been calling you all night.
00:20:13Why didn't you answer me?
00:20:14And then don't come to me again.
00:20:17Hey, what's going on?
00:20:18Are you mad at me because I couldn't help?
00:20:20Look, I tried everything I could with Uncle Ian.
00:20:22He's a dead end.
00:20:23Is that so?
00:20:24Yeah.
00:20:25He's a dead end.
00:20:26Is that so?
00:20:28Is that really his fault?
00:20:29What's that supposed to mean?
00:20:31Are you accusing me?
00:20:40What are you doing?
00:20:41Where are you taking me?
00:20:42You'll find out when we get there.
00:20:43When we get there.
00:20:54Why did you bring me here?
00:20:55Let go of me!
00:20:56Come on!
00:21:04Let's settle this today.
00:21:05Is it because I'm brushing you off,
00:21:07or because Uncle Ian doesn't agree?
00:21:09Enough, Evan.
00:21:14Enough, Evan.
00:21:16Uncle Ian, can you speak for me?
00:21:18Did I come here asking you to help Nina,
00:21:20even interrupting you and your...
00:21:24companion?
00:21:26That did happen.
00:21:28Did you hear that?
00:21:30I risked upsetting my uncle to help you,
00:21:32and you still don't believe me.
00:21:34Then I don't want to hear your lies anymore.
00:21:36Lies?
00:21:37What lies?
00:21:39The interrupted companion you were talking about.
00:21:47That was me.
00:21:49I heard every word you said, loud and clear.
00:21:58What?
00:22:00So you're saying that my uncle's companion was...
00:22:04was you?
00:22:05That my uncle's companion was...
00:22:07was you.
00:22:08That's right.
00:22:12But you don't even know him, right?
00:22:14Right? You just came to ask for help?
00:22:17Evan, the only reason I agreed to date you
00:22:19was because I thought that you could help my mom.
00:22:23Too bad I got to know the real you.
00:22:26Nina, Nina, I...
00:22:28I am not blaming you.
00:22:30But if you can't help me,
00:22:32I don't see a reason to stay in touch.
00:22:36So now that you've got my uncle as your big backup plan,
00:22:39you think you can just ditch me?
00:22:41You said it.
00:22:43Nina, wake up!
00:22:45You're just a toy to him!
00:22:48I don't care.
00:22:50As long as he helps save my mom.
00:22:57No, no.
00:22:59I'll just wait for you to come running back to me.
00:23:02I'll just wait for you to come running back to me!
00:23:11Wow.
00:23:12That was fast.
00:23:15Such a heartless woman.
00:23:26Such a heartless woman.
00:23:29Everything you did
00:23:31was just to force me to break up with him, wasn't it?
00:23:40You know, you should really thank me
00:23:43for showing you who Evan really is.
00:23:46I know him way better than you do.
00:23:52I like your stubbornness.
00:23:55Yes, doctor? What happened to my mom?
00:23:58What?
00:23:59Okay, I'm on my way.
00:24:08Dr. Emerson, what's wrong with my mom?
00:24:10Miss Lowell,
00:24:11your mother's only option is a kidney transplant.
00:24:14And without a donor, I can't do it.
00:24:17Your mother's only option is a kidney transplant.
00:24:19And without a donor, I can't do it.
00:24:24Dr. Emerson,
00:24:25Mr. Ian Musk has agreed to provide an artificial kidney.
00:24:29Please arrange for her surgery.
00:24:31Of course.
00:24:47Okay.
00:24:53Mr. Musk, please.
00:24:54My mom needs surgery right away.
00:24:56Are you sure?
00:24:57The technology isn't perfect yet.
00:24:59And if you go through with it,
00:25:01the risk is yours to take.
00:25:02Well, the doctor said that if we don't have a donor kidney,
00:25:05then my mom won't make it through the next couple days,
00:25:08so I'm willing to take the risk.
00:25:10Please.
00:25:11I'm begging you.
00:25:13Take care of it.
00:25:16Are you going with him?
00:25:23Can I just watch her wake up first?
00:25:26Then I'll come back.
00:25:28I promise.
00:25:29Do you want me to call Carl back?
00:25:32Take a shower and put that on.
00:25:54There's no time.
00:25:56I'm sorry.
00:25:57I'm sorry.
00:26:00There's no turning back now.
00:26:02It's all for Mom.
00:26:15Sit.
00:26:29Sit.
00:26:48No.
00:26:49Fine.
00:26:50Then don't waste my time.
00:26:54No, it's not about that.
00:26:57I'm just worried about my mom.
00:27:01Well, if you're so worried,
00:27:04see for yourself.
00:27:16Carl,
00:27:17let Nina see her mom.
00:27:21Boss,
00:27:22I already transferred Nina's mom to your hospital,
00:27:25and arranged for the best specialists to take care of her.
00:27:34Did my daughter send you here?
00:27:41She...
00:27:44She's, uh...
00:27:56Can you focus now?
00:28:11If you don't want to do this,
00:28:13you don't have to.
00:28:25I don't regret it.
00:28:56The next day
00:29:10You up?
00:29:12When?
00:29:13When are you gonna arrange the surgery for my mom?
00:29:20You promised me!
00:29:25Don't trust me?
00:29:28I do.
00:29:31Relax.
00:29:34I won't be a regret.
00:29:38As long as your mom
00:29:40stays in my hospital,
00:29:42she'll be fine.
00:29:44As for you,
00:29:46from now on,
00:29:47you're on call whenever I need you.
00:29:50Got it.
00:29:52Alright.
00:29:53Now get up.
00:29:54Go check on your mother.
00:30:09This place looks so fancy.
00:30:13Is it expensive?
00:30:15This hospital has developed an artificial kidney.
00:30:19Once you get it,
00:30:21you will get better soon.
00:30:24Artificial kidney?
00:30:28How much is it?
00:30:30Do not worry about the cost.
00:30:33I'll take care of it.
00:30:37Come have dinner with me.
00:30:44I need to step out for a bit, Mom.
00:30:49Don't hurt yourself for me.
00:30:53Don't worry, Mom.
00:30:55I'll take care of myself.
00:31:14Evan?
00:31:15Why are you here?
00:31:17That's what I should be asking you.
00:31:23Do you look down on me
00:31:25since you're with my Uncle Ian now?
00:31:27You're the one who told me
00:31:28he was the only one who could save my mom.
00:31:31Haven't I helped you?
00:31:34Yes.
00:31:35You have helped me,
00:31:36but I heard your real thoughts.
00:31:39But I...
00:31:40Evan.
00:31:41We're done.
00:31:43Do you really think
00:31:44Uncle Ian's gonna save your mom?
00:31:46I don't know him at all.
00:31:48None of your business.
00:31:52Nina.
00:31:53I've been chasing you around for so long.
00:31:56You wouldn't even let me touch you.
00:31:58Then you turn around and sleep with my uncle?
00:32:01You're nothing but a shameless slut.
00:32:04As long as it saves my mom,
00:32:05you can call me whatever name you want.
00:32:09Do you still think
00:32:12my Uncle Ian's interested in you?
00:32:17Let me make this clear.
00:32:19His love is Blanche, his fiancée.
00:32:25As soon as she wakes up,
00:32:28you'll be nothing to him.
00:32:30I don't care.
00:32:32Hey, Evan.
00:32:33Your uncle's sitting right there.
00:32:36Wanna go say hi to him?
00:32:42I'll just wait for you to come crawling back to me.
00:32:58You're the first person who's ever made me wait.
00:33:02You're the first person who's ever made me wait.
00:33:05This is your one and only warning.
00:33:08Don't test me again.
00:33:10Your nephew won't stop bothering me.
00:33:11I was just trying to make him back up.
00:33:14Good girl.
00:33:25Sir, the hospital's calling.
00:33:28I'll be there right away.
00:33:31What's going on?
00:33:32Why is he in such a hurry?
00:33:36Get out!
00:33:38Just get out!
00:33:40Get out!
00:33:46Blanche, you're awake!
00:33:48Ian, you're finally here!
00:33:50I'm so happy to see you!
00:33:52I'm so happy to see you!
00:33:54I'm so happy to see you!
00:33:56I'm so happy to see you!
00:33:58I'm so happy to see you!
00:34:00I'm so happy to see you!
00:34:05Ian?
00:34:07I can't feel my legs.
00:34:09Will I ever be able to stand again?
00:34:13What's going on?
00:34:14Ms. Carlton has been bedridden for too long,
00:34:17causing severe muscle atrophy of her legs.
00:34:20It may take her some time to recover.
00:34:24Don't worry.
00:34:25I'll stay with you until you can stand again.
00:34:28Ian,
00:34:30if I can never stand again,
00:34:32will you still marry me?
00:34:35Of course.
00:34:36I told your parents I'd take good care of you.
00:34:42That's a woman's perfume.
00:34:47Ian,
00:34:49during the whole year,
00:34:51have you been with anyone else?
00:34:58No.
00:35:03I've just woken up.
00:35:04Don't think too much.
00:35:08Okay.
00:35:09I trust you.
00:35:11All I care about is our wedding.
00:35:16Whoever she is,
00:35:17I'll find out and deal with her.
00:35:26Tell me the truth.
00:35:27What's the chance that Blanche is going to be able to walk again?
00:35:30It's scarcely possible.
00:35:32The accident was catastrophic.
00:35:35The fact that she even woke up is a miracle.
00:35:51Blanche!
00:35:52Blanche!
00:35:54Don't tell Blanche just yet.
00:35:56She can't handle the truth.
00:36:04Nina.
00:36:09I'm going back now.
00:36:15Wait for me at mine.
00:36:27Ian,
00:36:28I'm done with hospitals.
00:36:30I want to go home with you.
00:36:32Alright.
00:36:33I'll take you home.
00:36:47What are you doing here?
00:36:49Didn't you say to meet me at your place?
00:36:52When did I say that?
00:36:53Ian, who is she?
00:36:57Someone unimportant.
00:37:03Don't worry about it.
00:37:27The scent of perfume on Ian
00:37:29belongs to that woman.
00:37:32Ian,
00:37:33that lady.
00:37:34You've just woken up.
00:37:36Take some rest.
00:37:37Don't overthink things.
00:37:42Aren't you going to stay with me?
00:37:48Be good.
00:37:49I have work to do.
00:37:57Ian, I won't let anyone take you away from me.
00:38:08Evan, I'm awake.
00:38:10I need to see you.
00:38:20Ian, really?
00:38:26Yeah.
00:38:46I'll schedule your mom's surgery.
00:38:49Don't come to me again without permission.
00:38:53Got it.
00:38:57Take this.
00:38:58Spend it however you want.
00:39:00I don't need that.
00:39:03No one's ever dared to reject me.
00:39:05You're the first.
00:39:08Don't challenge me.
00:39:20Let me make the first move.
00:39:23Let me make this clear.
00:39:25His love is Blanche, his fiancée.
00:39:31As soon as she wakes up,
00:39:34you'll be nothing to him.
00:39:43So you're telling me that Nina's now Ian's mistress?
00:39:47Yes.
00:39:48She was my girlfriend.
00:39:50She was my girlfriend.
00:39:52But when she hooked up with Uncle Ian, she dumped me.
00:39:58Tell me everything about her.
00:40:00I'll make sure she regrets ever crossing me.
00:40:11Is everything okay?
00:40:13Did something happen?
00:40:15It's nothing.
00:40:17I'm fine.
00:40:20I'm fine.
00:40:25Doctor!
00:40:26Doctor!
00:40:31Doctor, what's happening to my mom?
00:40:33Ms. Lowell, your mother needs surgery as soon as possible.
00:40:36Please, arrange the surgery right away.
00:40:39But I can't.
00:40:40The autopsy kitty isn't even here yet.
00:40:42I'll go get Ian.
00:40:50Ian.
00:41:03Ian is not going to see you.
00:41:05You need to leave.
00:41:06Ms. Carlton, please let me see Ian.
00:41:08I have something urgent.
00:41:10Don't touch me with your filthy hands!
00:41:14What's going on here?
00:41:16Ian!
00:41:18This Nina girl insists on seeing you.
00:41:21I told her to wait, but she called me a useless cripple.
00:41:28You better watch your mouth.
00:41:29No, I did not say that.
00:41:31I was just complimenting her on her legs and saying those shoes look so much better on her.
00:41:35I don't understand why she's so mad at me.
00:41:38Take them off.
00:41:40What?
00:41:41I said take the shoes off.
00:41:44I'm sorry.
00:41:45I'll take them off right away.
00:41:48I don't want to see something like this again.
00:41:51I won't let it happen again.
00:41:53I promise.
00:41:54Mr. Musk, my mom can't wait any longer.
00:41:57Please help her arrange the surgery.
00:42:05Ian!
00:42:06Ian, you jerk!
00:42:08You promised me!
00:42:15Ms. Lowell, you won't get any feedback from the boss when he's in a temper.
00:42:19But my mom can't wait.
00:42:23Girl, please help me. Let me see him again.
00:42:29I'll try.
00:42:38Ian, tell me.
00:42:40Did you sleep with that woman?
00:42:45Yes.
00:42:47Did you fall for her?
00:43:02Ian, you promised me you were going to marry me.
00:43:05To take care of me forever.
00:43:09Don't worry.
00:43:10Our wedding will go as planned.
00:43:12But get some rest.
00:43:14You're tired.
00:43:42I promise.
00:44:00Didn't I tell you not to come here without my permission?
00:44:04If you arrange the artificial kidney surgery for my mom, I promise I will never bother you again.
00:44:12The surgery is scheduled for tomorrow.
00:44:18Come on.
00:44:19Let me take you home.
00:44:23Thanks, Mr. Musk, but I can walk home alone.
00:44:31Stubborn girl.
00:44:42I thought you were with my uncle now.
00:44:44Why do you look so poor?
00:44:46Knowing I'm with your uncle, and you still dare to harass me?
00:44:53Stop trying to fool me, Nina.
00:44:56Blanche is awake now.
00:44:58You really think Uncle Ian will give a damn about you?
00:45:02You are such a coward.
00:45:05The only reason you brought me here is because you knew I wasn't still with Ian.
00:45:13If you just brought me here to laugh at me, I think you've seen enough.
00:45:18You can leave now.
00:45:20Look, I warned you.
00:45:22My uncle is just toying with you.
00:45:23His only real love is Blanche.
00:45:29Now that Uncle Ian is done with you,
00:45:32just come back to me.
00:45:37Forget it.
00:45:40Forget it.
00:45:42Even if it weren't for Ian, I would never choose you.
00:45:46You need to watch yourself, Nina.
00:45:50Now that Uncle Ian's protection is gone,
00:45:53how much longer do you think you can keep the tough girl act up?
00:45:57How in the hell did I ever date you?
00:46:00Blanche is a jealous woman.
00:46:03She won't let you get away with this.
00:46:09Blanche.
00:46:33What's going on?
00:46:35What if I stay in your bed tonight?
00:46:39No.
00:46:45Blanche.
00:46:47Doctor says you need to rest.
00:46:52We'll be back to bed.
00:46:58I've been unconscious for a year.
00:47:00Don't you want to spend more time with me?
00:47:10Blanche, your body isn't fully recovered yet.
00:47:13Why not?
00:47:15If you want it.
00:47:22There's no rush.
00:47:25When you're fully recovered...
00:47:29Then what if I can never stand again?
00:47:32It's not gonna happen.
00:47:34It's not gonna happen.
00:47:38I'll get the best therapists for you.
00:47:43Close your eyes and get some rest.
00:47:49Nina, you shameless bitch.
00:47:51I'm not letting you take Ian from me.
00:48:00Who's there?
00:48:05No.
00:48:18Don't move.
00:48:24I said, don't move.
00:48:28Ow.
00:48:31Ow.
00:48:35You never learn.
00:48:38You deserve it.
00:48:50Where's your first aid kit?
00:48:52Are you concerned about me?
00:49:04Why did you come over here?
00:49:07Aren't you afraid of upsetting Miss Carlton?
00:49:13A year ago, I tried to break things off with Blanche.
00:49:17I tried talking to her about ending our engagement.
00:49:20Why is he telling me this?
00:49:23But, she ended up in a car accident saving me.
00:49:27And she's been in a coma ever since.
00:49:31I owe her everything in this life.
00:49:35So, you're still going to marry her, right?
00:49:41Yeah.
00:49:42If that's what Blanche wants, I'll honor it.
00:49:49Mr. Musk, you continue to force me while comforting Blanche.
00:49:54So pathetic.
00:49:57Blanche wants a marriage, I'll give her that.
00:49:59Blanche wants a marriage, I'll give her that.
00:50:02But, I want you.
00:50:09I sold myself to you to save my mother.
00:50:11But every deal has an end, right?
00:50:14The deal isn't over, Nina.
00:50:16Not until I say it is.
00:50:20To you, I'm just a toy to fulfill your desires.
00:50:24You don't respect my dignity, do you?
00:50:26I said, don't challenge me again.
00:50:42Hello?
00:50:43Boss, something's happened to Blanche.
00:50:46I'm coming right now.
00:50:50What was I expecting? Blanche is the one he cares about.
00:50:54Blanche is the one he cares about.
00:51:08Did I tell you to take care of her?
00:51:10I'm sorry, boss. It's all my fault.
00:51:15Don't blame Carl.
00:51:18I mean, look at me.
00:51:21A cripple, a burden.
00:51:24I don't even deserve to be here.
00:51:27No, don't. Don't say that.
00:51:30I'm sorry.
00:51:32I shouldn't have walked away.
00:51:34No more leaving you alone again.
00:51:37Liam, I want you to be happy.
00:51:40I don't want you carrying any guilt because of me.
00:51:44Don't think so much.
00:51:45Don't think so much.
00:51:47Miss, no.
00:51:49You have a wedding gown that's expecting you.
00:51:58Truth is, the easiest way to control a man is by making him feel guilty.
00:52:08Ian, Carl doesn't have any experience caring for patients.
00:52:15Maybe we should hire a maid.
00:52:18I'm coming right away.
00:52:20No need for that.
00:52:22Nina's a ready-made choice since she...
00:52:26She's been caring for her mom for so long.
00:52:29She must have a lot of experience caring for patients.
00:52:35What's wrong? Don't you want her to do it?
00:52:38I thought it was you that doesn't want to see her, right?
00:52:41She's taking care of her mom in the hospital and she probably doesn't have time.
00:52:47Her mom's at your hospital, isn't she?
00:52:51With all the doctors and nurses there, she probably doesn't need to take care of her anymore.
00:52:58And think of all the extra money she'll make.
00:53:01That's exactly what she needs, isn't it?
00:53:06If she agrees, then I'll leave it up to you.
00:53:12Okay.
00:53:20Nina, you arrived. Please, come sit with us.
00:53:24As she said.
00:53:28Oh, Ian, I really want some of your steak. Will you feed it to me?
00:53:35Fine.
00:53:42Mm.
00:53:45Nina, I heard about your mom's kidney transplant.
00:53:51Must be pretty expensive, right?
00:53:54Were you able to cover the costs?
00:53:57Yeah, I got the money. Surgery went well. She's recovering now.
00:54:02Wow, Nina, you've really outdone yourself.
00:54:05Raising all that money at your age. Pretty impressive.
00:54:10What do you think, Ian?
00:54:18Miss Carlton, you didn't bring me here to show your concern about mother, did you?
00:54:25You're pretty sharp, Nina. I brought you here because I want you to be my maid.
00:54:32From now on, you'll stay and take care of me.
00:54:36What do you mean?
00:54:38Your mother's post-surgery is costly.
00:54:43I mean, it must be tough handling that all on your own.
00:54:47I thought I'd do you a favor and offer you this job.
00:54:50Since it's a job, what's the pay?
00:54:55Oh, how does $100,000 a month sound?
00:54:58Oh, how does $100,000 a month sound?
00:55:02Deal.
00:55:07Have you thought that through?
00:55:09If there's money to be made, why not?
00:55:15Then it's settled.
00:55:18Nina will take care of me from now on.
00:55:21Hey, you're too kind.
00:55:23Carl, please, show Nina to her room.
00:55:26Of course. Miss Lowell, please follow me.
00:55:56You can still change your mind. Blanche has a temper. She's not easy to deal with.
00:56:13I'm making my own money now. No regrets.
00:56:21Miss Carlton, here's your water.
00:56:27I don't like my water cold.
00:56:39You know I'm allergic to nuts. You're trying to poison me.
00:56:43But you ordered a nut cake.
00:56:57What did you do to her?
00:57:04Did you feed her nuts?
00:57:06I didn't, baby.
00:57:11If anything happens to her, I won't forgive you.
00:57:27Yes, I'm coming right now.
00:57:35It's going to be fine.
00:57:38Nina, what are you doing here?
00:57:40Doctor, what's wrong with my mom?
00:57:42Your mother is experiencing severe organ rejection. A new one needs to be implanted immediately.
00:57:47Then get her to surgery right away.
00:57:49I can't do that. Only an authoritative surgeon can.
00:57:52Mr. Musk is the only one that can get that.
00:57:56Ian, I need to see you right away.
00:58:02Miss Lowell, you can't go in there.
00:58:04Carlton, please, I need to talk to Ian. My mom, she needs surgery right now.
00:58:08Your boss said no one's to disturb Miss Carlton.
00:58:13What are you doing here?
00:58:17Ian, please, I need your help. My mom is in a lot of pain.
00:58:20Please, I need your help. My mom, she had a rejection reaction.
00:58:25She needs to get surgery right away. Please help me.
00:58:28Ian, get this woman away from me. I'm scared.
00:58:33Nina, I'm not a charity. Now leave. Blanche needs to rest.
00:58:37I will do anything you ask. Please help me.
00:58:45Blanche, what's wrong?
00:58:47Doctor! Doctor!
00:58:48Miss Lowell, it's not a good moment. Please step out. Step out, please.
00:59:02Mother-daughter love. So touching.
00:59:06What do you want? Get out!
00:59:10I was just trying to help you. But since you don't appreciate it, I'll leave.
00:59:15What do you mean?
00:59:17You'll help me?
00:59:23You'll help me?
00:59:29To be clear, I'm the only one who can help you now.
00:59:33What do you mean?
00:59:35I made up an excuse and told Ian he's needed out of town. You won't be able to find him now.
00:59:40Right now, only I can arrange for a doctor to save your mother.
00:59:45Please. Miss Carlton, I beg you. Save my mother.
00:59:50I can. But I have conditions.
00:59:58Anything. I'll do anything.
01:00:01Good. Get a job at a strip club. Become a stripper. And make Ian hate you for good.
01:00:07The moment he sees you as filthy, he'll want nothing to do with you.
01:00:14Not really?
01:00:17Then forget it.
01:00:22Okay, I'll do it.
01:00:25I will. But you have to arrange my mother's surgery right now.
01:00:31Done.
01:00:33Carl, just say it.
01:00:36Boss, before we left, I accidentally walked past Nina's mom's room.
01:00:42I overheard Blanche and Nina making some kind of deal.
01:00:46I'm sorry.
01:00:48I'm sorry.
01:00:50I'm sorry.
01:00:52I'm sorry.
01:00:54I'm sorry.
01:00:56I'm sorry.
01:00:58I'm sorry.
01:00:59Nina making some kind of deal.
01:01:12Where's she at?
01:01:13Oh, there she is.
01:01:14Oh, that's what I'm talking about.
01:01:19Yeah. New girl, smoking hot.
01:01:23New girl's hot, baby. Yeah.
01:01:26Why don't you take something off?
01:01:27I was gonna take off that skirt, baby.
01:01:30Take it off. Take it off. Take it off. Take it off. Take it off. Take it off.
01:01:41Yeah, don't growl with that.
01:01:42Yeah, I'm gonna help growl.
01:01:50Come on.
01:01:55Come on.
01:02:08Which hand touched her?
01:02:09Oh, come on, bro. It's just some stripper. It's not worth the trouble.
01:02:14Which hand?
01:02:25Which hand?
01:02:30What? Ian went there?
01:02:34Remember, don't let Ian know it was me who forced Nina to go there.
01:02:48Thanks for today.
01:02:51Was the money I gave you not good enough?
01:02:55No, it's not that.
01:02:57So, is it I can't satisfy you? Do you want to go back to selling yourself to other men?
01:03:02Why do you insist on humiliating me?
01:03:06If it weren't for saving my mom, I would not have stepped a foot in that place.
01:03:11And I most definitely would never have met a monster like you.
01:03:22Rest now.
01:03:25Okay.
01:03:37Boss, are we still going out of town?
01:03:40Go home.
01:03:47Ian, why are you back? Weren't you supposed to be out of town?
01:03:51What's wrong? Why are you staring at me like that?
01:03:56You were the one who told Nina to be a stripper, aren't you?
01:04:01I don't know what you're talking about.
01:04:03Blanche, I appreciate what you've done, but I've put up with your spoiled behavior long enough.
01:04:09Don't touch Nina.
01:04:14Ian, what's so special about that woman? I'm your fiancé.
01:04:20She almost killed me, don't you remember?
01:04:23You also forget that my house is full of surveillance cameras.
01:04:30It was you who asked for that cupcake.
01:04:33Doctor! Nurse! Doctor!
01:04:39Doctor!
01:04:41Ms. Lowell!
01:04:42Carl, my mom's gone.
01:04:45Don't worry, Ms. Lowell.
01:04:47Your mom's surgery was arranged by the hospital.
01:04:50I'm sure she'll be fine.
01:04:52I'm sure she'll be fine.
01:04:54I'm sure she'll be fine.
01:04:56I'm sure she'll be fine.
01:04:58I'm sure she'll be fine.
01:04:59Don't worry, Ms. Lowell.
01:05:01Your mom's surgery was arranged this morning by the boss.
01:05:04She's still in surgery.
01:05:17He doesn't look so bad when he's silent.
01:05:30Sir, please take me.
01:05:34Mr. Rusk, can you help me now?
01:05:38Help? I'm a businessman, not a charity.
01:05:41Everything is a transaction with me.
01:05:44Are you sure?
01:05:46The technology isn't perfect yet.
01:05:48And if you go through with it, the risk is yours to take.
01:05:53I'm sorry.
01:05:54And if you go through with it, the risk is yours to take.
01:06:00Funny how it's always you saving me.
01:06:15I know I'm here to stop you.
01:06:20You're so full of yourself.
01:06:25But I just wanted to say thank you for helping my mom.
01:06:35No need. I'll make you pay me back later.
01:06:41Don't worry.
01:06:43Stay here and sleep.
01:06:55He's probably with that bitch again.
01:06:58No way I'm not letting her take Ian from me.
01:07:05Evan.
01:07:07He's always wanted that bitch, right?
01:07:10I'll help him out.
01:07:25I'm sorry.
01:07:32Nina, be here in 30 minutes or your mom won't like what happens next.
01:07:54What do you want from me?
01:07:57Evan, Nina ditched you for Ian. You're just going to let that slide?
01:08:02Don't you want to get her back?
01:08:04What are you talking about?
01:08:06Ian and I are getting married soon.
01:08:09I need you to handle Nina for me.
01:08:11What do I need to do?
01:08:13I want you to destroy her.
01:08:17Make Ian hate her for good.
01:08:20But if I make Ian mad, I...
01:08:22Look, I don't think I can do it.
01:08:25Relax.
01:08:27Ian feels guilty for me. If he gets mad, just pin it on me. He won't lay a hand on you.
01:08:35You are such a coward!
01:08:39Fine.
01:08:42What do I need to do?
01:08:44Nina will be at the bridal shop in 30 minutes. Just follow my lead.
01:08:53Miss Carlton, what do you really want from me?
01:08:57And my mom.
01:09:00Why can't you just leave us alone?
01:09:03You know, Ian and I are getting married, right?
01:09:08Yes.
01:09:10Before the wedding.
01:09:12I'm sorry.
01:09:14I'm sorry.
01:09:16I'm sorry.
01:09:18I'm sorry.
01:09:20Before the wedding, I don't want anything or anyone getting in the way of us.
01:09:28Are you planning something?
01:09:34Ian has a serious thing about purity when it comes to women.
01:09:39He won't come back to me unless you disgust him.
01:09:44Don't worry. I found your old lover.
01:09:50Nina.
01:09:51Evan?
01:09:52I told you you'd come back to me.
01:09:56Evan, let go of me!
01:09:57Today, you'll learn the consequences of betraying me.
01:10:01Enjoy, Evan.
01:10:11Evan, let go of me.
01:10:14I treated you so well. How did you betray me?
01:10:20Men like you are such liars.
01:10:22I am glad that I betrayed you.
01:10:37Please leave your message after the tone.
01:10:44Please leave your message after the tone.
01:10:50Please leave your message after the tone.
01:10:54Blanche, I can't get with you today to try on wedding dresses.
01:10:56Ian, just so you know, Nina and Evan are at the bridal shop.
01:11:00Looks like they're back together again.
01:11:07Nina, I really like you.
01:11:11I love you.
01:11:12I don't need your love!
01:11:14Do you really think my uncle likes you?
01:11:16He likes you!
01:11:17He's getting married.
01:11:18And you're still gonna be his mistress?
01:11:20That is none of your business.
01:11:24Let's start over.
01:11:25I can do everything that he can.
01:11:29Evan, let go of me.
01:11:31I know, I know.
01:11:33I'm not as good as him.
01:11:34But I'm not bad, right?
01:11:38Why won't you look at me?
01:11:42Fuck this.
01:11:46Oh!
01:12:00Uncle Nina?
01:12:01Do you have a death wish, Evan?
01:12:03No, no, no.
01:12:04Look, this...
01:12:05This was Blanche's idea.
01:12:07I won't ever do this again.
01:12:09Please, please forgive me.
01:12:10Get out!
01:12:12Thank you, sir.
01:12:13I'm sorry, Nina.
01:12:17It's okay.
01:12:18I'm here now.
01:12:19Ian, you're getting married.
01:12:21Just let me go.
01:12:23And tell Blanche to leave me alone.
01:12:25Look, I'm sorry.
01:12:26And I swear it won't happen again.
01:12:29Ian, please.
01:12:30You have a fiancé who loves you.
01:12:33She won't tolerate anyone else.
01:12:36Just let her have you.
01:12:39I'm never letting you go again.
01:12:43Nina.
01:12:45I've fallen in love with you.
01:12:47You...
01:12:48What did you just say?
01:12:53You...
01:12:54What did you just say?
01:12:56I said, I love you.
01:13:01But what about Blanche?
01:13:03You're still marrying her, right?
01:13:09Nina, I...
01:13:11Nina, I love you.
01:13:13And yes, I'm still marrying Blanche.
01:13:15It's something I owe her.
01:13:18So you just want me to keep being your mistress?
01:13:21Mistress, wife, they're just labels.
01:13:23Doesn't it matter that I love you?
01:13:25But for me, the idea of love is a simple thing.
01:13:30Marrying the person you truly love.
01:13:35And I'll ever be to you as your mistress.
01:13:39No, Nina.
01:13:58Ian!
01:14:00If you won't do dress shopping, at least help me choose the venue.
01:14:06Ian?
01:14:08Why are you looking at me like that? You're scaring me.
01:14:17Ian?
01:14:19Why are you looking at me like that? You're scaring me.
01:14:23Did I, or did I not, tell you to stay away from Nina?
01:14:28I didn't mean to hurt her, Ian.
01:14:32Evan begged me.
01:14:35I just...
01:14:36I just couldn't say no.
01:14:40Ian, we're gonna be married. Please stop thinking about that woman.
01:14:49Let's just focus on choosing out the venue and forget about all this bad stuff for now, okay?
01:14:58Pick whatever you want.
01:15:01You think this is easy for me?
01:15:04I'd give up my legs for you.
01:15:08I'll marry you.
01:15:11If that's what it takes to get you to leave Nina alone.
01:15:19Nina, just wait.
01:15:22You're going to regret this.
01:15:24I'm sorry.
01:15:33I, um, I just wanted to say thank you for helping my mom.
01:15:39No need. I'll make you pay me back later.
01:15:44Don't worry.
01:15:47Stay here and sleep.
01:15:51Forget about him.
01:15:52You don't belong in his world.
01:16:03Blanche!
01:16:07Your legs!
01:16:14Your legs!
01:16:17Nina, you slut!
01:16:18Nina, you slut!
01:16:20Can't stop throwing yourself at my fiancé, huh?
01:16:24Miss Carlton, get it straight. Your fiancé is the one who won't leave me alone.
01:16:31If it weren't for you, Ian wouldn't be ignoring me.
01:16:36I've been tolerating you out of sympathy, but now it's clear that you are just a liar.
01:16:44So what if I am a liar?
01:16:45As long as I marry Ian, none of it matters.
01:16:52Three million.
01:16:54Take it and leave. Get as far away from this city as you can.
01:16:59Miss Carlton, I don't need your money, but I'll leave.
01:17:04Ian and I have a deal because of my mom.
01:17:07If you can convince him to call it off, I'll leave with her.
01:17:11I'll leave with her.
01:17:13You own your words.
01:17:23Boss, Blanche has already handled all the wedding details.
01:17:28But for me, the idea of love is a simple thing. Marrying the person you truly love.
01:17:36Carl, do you even understand love?
01:17:42No, but boss, you're different with Nina. You seem to really care about her.
01:17:53Is that so?
01:18:06Nina? Is everything okay?
01:18:09I'm fine, mom. I'm just happy you're getting out of here.
01:18:14I'm your mother. I can tell when something's going on.
01:18:18You don't have to keep it inside. You can tell me.
01:18:25I'm sorry.
01:18:27I'm sorry.
01:18:29I'm sorry.
01:18:31I'm sorry.
01:18:32I'm sorry.
01:18:36I fell in love with someone.
01:18:42But he's getting married.
01:18:47I may not understand everything, but I know this.
01:18:53You are so special.
01:18:56And if he can't see that, he doesn't deserve you.
01:19:00Agreed.
01:19:07Mom, let's leave this city and just start fresh.
01:19:11What do you say?
01:19:13I'm with you, Nina.
01:19:15Let's do it.
01:19:29I love you.
01:19:40Ian, we're finally going to be married.
01:19:50Boss, the wedding venue is asking when the bride and groom will be arriving.
01:19:56Ian, let's go. The wedding's waiting.
01:20:00Come on, babe. You know it's bad luck for the bride and groom to be late.
01:20:08Sir, please take me.
01:20:12If you don't want to do this, you don't have to.
01:20:18I don't regret it.
01:20:19Blanche.
01:20:28I'm sorry, Blanche, but I can't marry you.
01:20:40What did you say?
01:20:43I thought I could keep marriage and love separate, but I can't.
01:20:47So?
01:20:49I don't want to hear it.
01:20:51Blanche.
01:20:53I'm sorry.
01:20:55But I love Nina.
01:20:57She's the only woman I'll marry.
01:21:04No!
01:21:06You can't do this to me. I've given everything for you.
01:21:11Are you pushing me away because of my legs?
01:21:13The doctor said I'll be able to stand again soon.
01:21:16Blanche, I'm going to get you the very best doctors, and they're going to fix your legs.
01:21:21And I want to give you the best life possible, but...
01:21:25But I can't live a lie.
01:21:27I love Nina, not you.
01:21:30I'm sorry.
01:21:33No!
01:21:35Ian!
01:21:37You can't do this to me!
01:21:39Ian!
01:21:44Nina, you bitch! I'm going to kill you!
01:21:51Mom, the car will be here soon.
01:21:54Nina!
01:21:57Ian?
01:22:09I will kill you! I will kill you!
01:22:13Mom!
01:22:17I will kill you! I will kill you!
01:22:21Mom, get out of the way!
01:22:36Ian!
01:22:38Nina, are you okay?
01:22:40I'm fine. How are you?
01:22:41Are you hurt?
01:22:43Oh my God, you're bleeding!
01:22:45I'm okay.
01:22:47Ian! Ian!
01:22:50We need to get him to the hospital right away.
01:22:57Boss, Blanche's accident is serious. The doctors say she'll never walk again.
01:23:03I know. Just get me discharged.
01:23:06Hey, you can't leave. The doctor said you need to stay for more observation.
01:23:11Nina?
01:23:13Lie down. You need rest.
01:23:26It's just a scratch. I don't need to stay in the hospital.
01:23:30If you don't listen to me, I'll leave.
01:23:34Ian, let go of me.
01:23:37Ow, ow. Oh God, it hurts.
01:23:39Where? Should I call a doctor?
01:23:42It won't hurt if you're here.
01:23:49Ian, thank you.
01:23:54You're welcome. I want something a little more practical.
01:24:03Nina, I love you. Will you marry me?
01:24:09Huh. I'll think about it.
