00:00:00Why do I need to marry your friend's daughter?

00:00:02So what if her father helped you out?

00:00:04The marriage will benefit both sides.

00:00:06So pathetic.

00:00:07I heard the bride's father recently passed away

00:00:10and she's marrying him just to save her family financially.

00:00:13I'll do it for you, Mom.

00:00:15I'm going through with the divorce.

00:00:17You know any marriage investigators in the city?

00:00:19Well, I heard the best investigator here is a young lady named Alice Smith.

00:00:22You're ruining everything for me!

00:00:24Leave the lady alone.

00:00:25I heard your husband left the country four years ago

00:00:28just to get away from you.

00:00:30Alice and my firm is dying because you're going to pay!

00:00:35Yeah, I might need you to take care of me.

00:00:38Well, if that's the case, then I will.

00:00:40I see how you two could be happy together.

00:00:43You know, sometimes I think how nice it would be

00:00:45if I was married to a woman like Alice.

00:00:47What am I doing?

00:00:48I'm married.

00:00:50And he's married.

00:00:51Hey, while we haven't seen each other in four years,

00:00:53I bet we can get a divorce.

00:00:55Is this Alice's husband?

00:00:56Let me see what I can get out of this.

00:00:58Please, I think that one was a gold digger.

00:01:00Max, it's Alice.

00:01:01Can we talk?

00:01:02Alice, Max's wife.

00:01:05You weren't like this before.

00:01:07I want a divorce.

00:01:09Maybe it's time to end the charade.

00:01:10He's coming!

00:01:18The heir of the varigal group.

00:01:22Oh my god, he's so hot.

00:01:25I would die a million times if that means I could touch those muscles.

00:01:28Just once.

00:01:31Water scarcity and clean access.

00:01:34Alice!

00:01:34What the fuck are you doing here?

00:01:37Get out of my way, doormat.

00:01:39Oh, Max.

00:01:42Aww.

00:01:44What are you doing?

00:01:46What am I doing?

00:01:51Look how pathetic she is.

00:01:52I have an idea.

00:01:55Why don't we light her hair on fire?

00:01:57It'll be fun.

00:01:59Max?

00:02:00No, stop, stop.

00:02:03No, please.

00:02:04No, stop.

00:02:07Stop it, let her go.

00:02:09No, Max.

00:02:11It's so nice to finally meet you.

00:02:12I'm Anna.

00:02:16Oh, Max.

00:02:38My name is...

00:02:39It's no big deal.

00:02:42Take care.

00:02:50Can you tell he has no interest in you?

00:02:52Well, he's clearly not interested in you guys, either.

00:03:16What the hell?

00:03:16You can't touch her.

00:03:17You can't touch her.

00:03:24Let's go, ladies.

00:03:30Stop dreaming.

00:03:32Guys like him will never be interested in someone like me.

00:03:38What?

00:03:39Why do I need to marry your friend's daughter?

00:03:41So what if her father helped you out?

00:03:43It doesn't have to destroy my life!

00:03:44It's not like that, Max.

00:03:47Mr. Taylor's daughter is a lovely girl.

00:03:50You'll like her.

00:03:52The marriage will benefit both sides.

00:03:55If you want to give up your inheritance right to the Veragold group,

00:03:58feel free to ignore us.

00:04:00Oh, fucking asshole!

00:04:13Hey, who threw that phone?

00:04:16Oh.

00:04:18Sorry, boss.

00:04:18Mom, what if he doesn't like me?

00:04:29I mean, should I really be marrying someone that I don't even know?

00:04:32Oh, do this for me, Alice.

00:04:34Please.

00:04:36Things have been tough since you're...

00:04:39Since we lost your father.

00:04:41And from now on, we're going by my surname.

00:04:49So, you won't be Alice Taylor anymore.

00:04:53You'll be Alice Smith.

00:04:54What?

00:04:55No.

00:04:56It's how it has to be, Alice.

00:04:59We need the Brown support.

00:05:02Please.

00:05:09Okay.

00:05:11I'll do it for you, Mom.

00:05:20Boss, I suggest you take these.

00:05:24For what?

00:05:25Well, if this woman isn't what you want,

00:05:26then better not let her see your face and fall in love.

00:05:29Good idea.

00:05:47So, seeing as we are already married,

00:05:51maybe we should go grab a coffee and get to know each other?

00:05:54Are you serious?

00:05:59Who is this guy?

00:06:14Quickly, sir.

00:06:15We don't want to be late.

00:06:24Congrats.

00:06:36When will he arrive?

00:06:38Oh, don't worry, Alice.

00:06:39It must be a traffic jam.

00:06:41He will come soon.

00:06:43What?

00:06:44Come back now!

00:06:45Don't you know today's your wedding?

00:06:47My flight to Australia is leaving in ten minutes,

00:06:49and I already signed the contract papers.

00:06:51You got what you wanted, Dad.

00:06:53Goodbye.

00:06:58So pathetic.

00:07:00I heard the bride's father recently passed away,

00:07:02and she's marrying him just to save her family financially.

00:07:05The groom probably figured out her tricks and ran away.

00:07:08Who wants to marry a gold digger anyway?

00:07:10Hehehehe.

00:07:11You said you never beat your wife, Mr. Carter.

00:07:25Let's welcome our investigator, Miss Alice Smith, then.

00:07:28These are just some of the graphic images of my client

00:07:52after a particularly hostile exchange with the defendant.

00:07:57And might I add, Mr. Carter,

00:07:59that your bedroom window opens up into the living room of your neighbor's house,

00:08:02who just so happens to be a photographer.

00:08:05I would consider my career and reputation if I were you, Mr. Carter.

00:08:15Henry, you know any marriage investigators in the city?

00:08:30Why an investigator?

00:08:32I thought you were going to find a lawyer, directly.

00:08:34We're going to need some proof first.

00:08:35You know, these cases don't tend to swing in favor of the husbands,

00:08:38not to mention if that woman gets greedy and tries to take everything from us.

00:08:42That makes sense.

00:08:44Well, I heard the best investigator here is a young lady named Alice Smith.

00:08:49Hmm.

00:08:53This is Alice Smith.

00:08:56Ah!

00:09:03Ah!

00:09:04Ah!

00:09:05What the hell's going on?

00:09:08Well, sorry, lady, but you stopped all of a sudden.

00:09:10I don't have time for this.

00:09:12Here, take my card, and we'll figure it out later.

00:09:15And next time, watch where you're going.

00:09:22So it's our fault.

00:09:24That's interesting.

00:09:28Alice Smith?

00:09:29Max, why don't you meet that woman and decide if you want to divorce or not?

00:09:37Maybe you'll like her.

00:09:39That sounds like the last thing I want to be doing.

00:09:42How do you know?

00:09:44Because I'm not interested in meeting someone who uses marriage as a tool.

00:09:49Are you sure that's what she's doing?

00:09:50Is there any other reason that a woman would marry somebody that they don't even know?

00:09:55Hmm.

00:09:56Makes sense.

00:09:58Ah!

00:10:02You're ruining my life, Alice!

00:10:04I can't live without my wife!

00:10:06Just calm down, okay?

00:10:07I'm just doing my job.

00:10:09Besides, you should know that an unhappy marriage ends in a grave for one or both parties.

00:10:13I don't give a damn!

00:10:15Stay out of my marriage!

00:10:17You're ruining everything for me!

00:10:18But go with me, or I'll call the police!

00:10:20What the fuck is going on?

00:10:23Hmm?

00:10:25Leave the lady alone.

00:10:27What if I say no?

00:10:30Oh!

00:10:31Oh!

00:10:33Oh, you're hurting me!

00:10:34Get out.

00:10:37Oh!

00:10:41Oh!

00:10:42What are you guys doing here?

00:10:56Allow me to formally introduce you to...

00:11:00This is Max Brown, the CEO of Legend Group.

00:11:03And I guess you are Miss Alice Smith.

00:11:06Who would have thought you're the investigator we're looking for?

00:11:10Thank you for your help earlier.

00:11:12Please, take a seat.

00:11:24Could Max be...

00:11:25No.

00:11:27My husband's company is Faribault Group, not Legend Group.

00:11:31Mr. Brown, I already have my fair share of clients and headaches.

00:11:37Especially after this morning, now I have to go to the car shop.

00:11:41So, why should I take your case?

00:11:43Well, let's not allow past conflicts to cloud your judgment.

00:11:47As you said, an unhappy marriage is a grave.

00:11:51Okay.

00:11:51I'll take your case.

00:11:55I'll take your case.

00:11:58Really?

00:12:00Yes.

00:12:01I believe everyone deserves a fair chance.

00:12:02So, tell me about your wife.

00:12:07Why do you want to get the divorce?

00:12:08What's the main issue in the relationship?

00:12:11I just don't know anything about the woman.

00:12:13My parents arranged the marriage years ago.

00:12:15Interesting.

00:12:19Well, have you given any thought to how you want to divide up the property?

00:12:24Yes.

00:12:25I have set aside $10 million.

00:12:27If she requests anything else, I'm prepared to take care of it.

00:12:32That's very generous.

00:12:34You may not need my help.

00:12:38Now, hold on.

00:12:40We've been married for four years now.

00:12:43It's a dead marriage.

00:12:44For all we know, she's planning something.

00:12:46Four years.

00:12:48What was the name of your wife?

00:12:50Oh, her...

00:12:52The name...

00:12:54Her name...

00:12:58Oh, I'm sorry.

00:12:59I need to take this.

00:13:01Hello?

00:13:02Alice?

00:13:03Max has just returned.

00:13:05Come to my home and I'll introduce you guys.

00:13:07Okay.

00:13:10Um, I have an emergency that I need to handle.

00:13:14So, I will take a look at your case and I'll get back to you later.

00:13:20Not that professional, is she?

00:13:22I think you should ask for more detailed information from your mom first.

00:13:27Yeah, let's do it.

00:13:32Mom, please.

00:13:33I have no interest in this woman.

00:13:35Give it at least a month.

00:13:37By then, if you still want a divorce, I'll agree.

00:13:41Deal.

00:13:52Hi, Emma.

00:13:58Come on in, Allie.

00:13:59You look gorgeous.

00:14:00Max is waiting for you.

00:14:12He probably felt bad about not having a gift.

00:14:15Don't worry.

00:14:15He'll...

00:14:16You'll meet him later.

00:14:17Right.

00:14:20You know, I have some work that I could get done.

00:14:24All uber home.

00:14:25Max, where did you go?

00:14:48Let's stop wasting our time.

00:14:50We agreed to give it a month.

00:14:52No, Nate, I already hired a very good investigator to find proof, and later I'll find a lawyer

00:14:56for a divorce.

00:14:58Oh, Jesus.

00:15:08He said he'll meet you later after better preparation.

00:15:11I hope you don't blame him for leaving without notice four years ago.

00:15:14No, Emma, I understand that it's a difficult situation.

00:15:18Tomorrow, there's an important charity event.

00:15:22Make sure you go.

00:15:23I'll take care of the rest.

00:15:24The charity event.

00:15:26Okay.

00:15:30Henry, tomorrow's charity event?

00:15:32Make sure Max goes, okay?

00:15:35Why don't you tell him directly?

00:15:37I don't want him to suspect anything.

00:15:41His sweet wife, Allie, will be there, too.

00:15:42I must make sure he doesn't run away this time.

00:15:48I see.

00:15:49Wait.

00:15:50His wife's name is Allie?

00:15:53Does she happen to work in a law firm?

00:15:55Yes.

00:15:55Why?

00:15:57I gotta go now.

00:15:59Wait.

00:16:02Wait.

00:16:04Arrange to donate an Alice's name at the charity dinner.

00:16:07Max likes girls who are passionate about meaningful social events.

00:16:12He may fall for her after that.

00:16:14Will the event be hosted under the name of Legend or Varigold Group?

00:16:17Legend Group.

00:16:18I want our new branch to build its reputation.

00:16:21Okay.

00:16:28Dude, let me ask.

00:16:30You sure about the divorce?

00:16:31Yes.

00:16:33How sure are you?

00:16:34A hundred percent sure.

00:16:37Why?

00:16:38Well, you better leave some room for more possibilities.

00:16:43Where'd you go earlier?

00:16:45Went back to visit the chairwoman.

00:16:47I see.

00:16:49So my mom's trying to get you to persuade me to give up on the divorce.

00:16:53That's right.

00:16:54But.

00:16:55Shut up.

00:16:57Hold on.

00:16:58Do you know who your wife is?

00:17:01I've heard enough about that one.

00:17:02Are you sure?

00:17:03You seemed interested in the investigator, but I actually found...

00:17:06Enough!

00:17:10What?

00:17:10Henry, you're trying to just set me up, right?

00:17:13How much is my mom paying you?

00:17:15What?

00:17:16Come on.

00:17:18Please, okay?

00:17:19I need to focus on the Legend Group Charity Gala event.

00:17:22It's going to be tomorrow.

00:17:25After that, we can talk about this whole so-called wife later.

00:17:29Max, there's something you really should know.

00:17:31Save it.

00:17:32Please.

00:17:32Enough.

00:17:43Boss, there's someone here to see you.

00:17:47Well, I don't have any meetings on today.

00:17:51When did you start scheduling my meetings, Henry?

00:17:53I just thought it was somebody that you'd like to see.

00:17:56I think she's outside.

00:17:57Hold on.

00:17:58Hold on.

00:18:02Oh, hi, Alice.

00:18:07Oh, hi, Alice.

00:18:13What's up?

00:18:15What are you doing here?

00:18:15Henry said that you wanted to see me?

00:18:22Right.

00:18:23Of course.

00:18:25I just wanted to talk more about the case.

00:18:28Right.

00:18:29Yeah, I'm really sorry for leaving so abruptly earlier.

00:18:33No, I need to apologize.

00:18:35Actually, I had a question I wanted to ask you.

00:18:37Um, we're doing the Legend Group Charity Gal event tomorrow.

00:18:42You want to join me?

00:18:43You want me to join you?

00:18:46Oh, you want to make your wife jealous so she agrees to sign the divorce papers.

00:18:51Smart.

00:18:52Uh, yeah.

00:18:52Yeah.

00:18:53Also, don't forget that I'm the victim here.

00:18:57This marriage is just a whole farce.

00:19:00What a coincidence.

00:19:02Emma also invited me.

00:19:12Alice.

00:19:13You look, uh, ravishing tonight.

00:19:17The hell, Tom?

00:19:21What the hell, Tom?

00:19:24Alice, how dare you seduce my husband?

00:19:27What are you talking about?

00:19:28How can someone like you attend such a high-class event anyway?

00:19:36Well, Linda, if someone like you can be here, I can definitely be here.

00:19:41I heard your husband left the country four years ago just to get away from you.

00:19:47How horrible is that?

00:19:50Actually, she's my wife.

00:19:55And I don't allow anyone to talk to my wife like that.

00:19:57You are?

00:20:00Show some respect or I'm going to call security.

00:20:02We all know Alice's husband fled the country four years ago just to get away from her.

00:20:08Yeah, well, he's back now.

00:20:12Tom, the CEO of Legend Group would like to meet with you at tonight's gala.

00:20:16I just got a call, and tonight I'm meeting a very important contact.

00:20:23Really, honey?

00:20:25Let's go.

00:20:26Let's not waste time on these low-class people.

00:20:38Thanks.

00:20:39Sure.

00:20:46All right, ladies and gentlemen, it is now time for tonight's main event.

00:20:52Tonight's winner, who donates the most, will receive a special collaboration opportunity

00:20:56with our sponsor, Legend Group.

00:21:02I heard the value of the collaboration is worth more than the top donation amount last year.

00:21:08So let's get it.

00:21:10I'll donate $10 million.

00:21:11$10 million.

00:21:13$50 million.

00:21:14$50 million.

00:21:16$60 million.

00:21:17$60 million.

00:21:18$100 million.

00:21:21$100 million.

00:21:23Going once.

00:21:25Going through.

00:21:26Oh, wow.

00:21:30Seems that a mysterious donor by the name of Alice just donated $200 million.

00:21:37It wasn't me.

00:21:38It's just a coincidence, right?

00:21:42Okay.

00:21:44Alice?

00:21:47Alice?

00:21:48There is no way that the Alice who donated is this same Alice.

00:21:53Where would she get all that money, huh?

00:21:55Tell me.

00:21:55What kind of tricks are you guys trying to pull here?

00:21:58What are you doing to my boss?

00:22:01Henry, your boss?

00:22:03This is Max, the CEO of Legend Group.

00:22:06He's the important person I was going to introduce you to tonight.

00:22:09What?

00:22:14Get better, Alice.

00:22:25Mom?

00:22:26Will you send me my wife's number?

00:22:28I'm confused.

00:22:32Oh, my head.

00:22:33Mmm.

00:22:35Yeah, I think I have a little blood sugar.

00:22:38Hey.

00:22:39Hey.

00:22:40Have something to eat.

00:22:42It's going to make you feel better.

00:22:43Oh.

00:22:49You know, I noticed that your husband didn't show up yet.

00:23:02How's your relationship with him, if you don't mind me asking?

00:23:07Actually, I do mind.

00:23:08I don't really want to talk about him.

00:23:12I understand.

00:23:12Okay.

00:23:19Hello?

00:23:28Hello?

00:23:33Hello?

00:23:35Who is this?

00:23:37Where's my wife?

00:23:38Hello?

00:23:39Who am I speaking to?

00:23:41Yes, I'm fine.

00:23:43I'll be okay.

00:23:45I just need to rest.

00:23:47Hello?

00:23:47She's probably speaking to her husband now.

00:23:50Hello?

00:23:50But I shouldn't inquire.

00:23:51Besides, I have my own problems to deal with.

00:23:53I love you, too.

00:23:55Okay.

00:23:56Bye.

00:24:04Max.

00:24:05I checked the donation details.

00:24:08It's your wife who made the donation.

00:24:11Hmm.

00:24:11I see.

00:24:13Yeah, I guess it can't be Alice Smith.

00:24:15There's no way she'd be able to afford it.

00:24:16Well, you know, there is another woman at the law firm named Allie.

00:24:20One of their high-profile lawyers.

00:24:22I can look into her instead.

00:24:24Yeah.

00:24:24Yeah, go do that.

00:24:29Who is that, babe?

00:24:31I don't know.

00:24:31Probably one of Alice's clients.

00:24:33I'm surprised she hasn't realized yet that she left her work phone in your office.

00:24:37Okay.

00:24:38Forget about her.

00:24:39Steven, you said you would divorce your wife by now.

00:24:42How long are you going to keep me waiting?

00:24:43Okay, okay.

00:24:45I'll settle things with her tonight.

00:25:02Hello?

00:25:03Hey.

00:25:05Well, we haven't seen each other in four years.

00:25:06I bet we can get a divorce.

00:25:08How about I give you ten million dollars?

00:25:10Is this Alice's husband?

00:25:11The one she's never even met?

00:25:13Wow, he's rich.

00:25:14Let me see what I can get out of this.

00:25:16What?

00:25:18Aw.

00:25:18Okay.

00:25:19I understand.

00:25:21Why don't we meet and talk?

00:25:22Good.

00:25:23I got a place in mind.

00:25:32Would you believe it, Alice?

00:25:34I thought my wife is cheating on me.

00:25:37I need to go and sort this out.

00:25:39Would you come with me?

00:25:40Yeah.

00:25:41Sure.

00:25:42But don't say too much.

00:25:44Okay?

00:25:45Let's remember.

00:25:46Let her speak first.

00:25:47Okay.

00:25:49Allie?

00:26:03Oh, so I guess you're investigating me now.

00:26:06Wait, you two know each other?

00:26:08Yeah, we work at the same law firm.

00:26:17What are you looking at?

00:26:19Is that limited edition?

00:26:21I think I saw it in a magazine.

00:26:24Let's get to the point.

00:26:26I don't want a divorce unless you pay me enough.

00:26:29Okay, well, is ten million enough?

00:26:31That's not even enough to pay for your watch.

00:26:33I don't want a divorce.

00:26:34I don't want a divorce.

00:26:35I don't want a divorce.

00:26:36I don't want a divorce.

00:26:37Okay.

00:26:37How much is enough?

00:26:41I think...

00:26:42Okay, while you're thinking about that, why don't you go figure out a number, and then

00:26:52you can come back.

00:26:54For now, I need to talk with Alice.

00:26:55Okay.

00:26:56Okay.

00:26:59Okay.

00:27:10Max, I'm really sorry that you're going through this.

00:27:13I mean, Allie is clearly using your own emotions to extort you.

00:27:16Well, you know, it's like you said, Alice.

00:27:20An unhappy marriage is a grave.

00:27:24I'm just really happy that you're here.

00:27:26Thanks.

00:27:26Of course.

00:27:27Actually, I got you something.

00:27:36Wow.

00:27:42Max, I can't accept this.

00:27:43This is too nice.

00:27:45No, no.

00:27:47Please, I insist, okay?

00:27:49It's just a gift from a friend.

00:27:53Thanks.

00:27:57Oh, Alice.

00:28:05This is Mr. Roberts.

00:28:07He's the manager of the cafe.

00:28:08Mr. Roberts, Alice, she's been a great help to me lately.

00:28:10Hello, Alice.

00:28:11Lovely to meet you.

00:28:12Sorry, I actually have to take this.

00:28:16What a strange way for Max to introduce his wife.

00:28:19Would you like to order now, Mr. Brown, or should we wait for your wife?

00:28:22Please.

00:28:23Not just any woman is my wife.

00:28:24Oh, I see.

00:28:26They must have had a fight.

00:28:27Perhaps it was something to do with that other woman.

00:28:29Very well.

00:28:30I shall await for the lady.

00:28:34Hey, Emma.

00:28:35Alice, did Max call you?

00:28:37He said he's been trying to reach you.

00:28:39No, he hasn't called, actually.

00:28:42Oh, you know what?

00:28:43I think I gave you my work phone number.

00:28:45I don't check that one as often.

00:28:47Oh, that's a relief.

00:28:48I was worried.

00:28:50Emma, can you send me Max's number again?

00:28:52Okay.

00:28:53Great, thanks.

00:28:57I'm going through with the divorce.

00:29:04Please, I think that woman's a gold digger.

00:29:06No way!

00:29:07She's not that kind of woman.

00:29:08Are you meeting with someone new?

00:29:10Yes.

00:29:14Yes, actually I am.

00:29:15And she's kind.

00:29:17She's got this grace about her.

00:29:20Sorry, I gotta go.

00:29:21Mom, I'll call you later.

00:29:22I didn't mean for you to overhear that.

00:29:28Sorry, I didn't realize you weren't there.

00:29:31That's okay.

00:29:32I'm glad you think so highly of me.

00:29:36I do.

00:29:38I mean, I really do.

00:29:40I do.

00:29:52I don't know.

00:29:53I don't know.

00:29:54I don't know.

00:29:58There's you.

00:30:00Mmm.

00:30:01So, Cousin Max, you have got to tell me all about what you've been up to Down Under.

00:30:08Huh?

00:30:08A little thunder from Down Under, I expect.

00:30:12Well, it isn't a short story, I could tell you that much, Mike.

00:30:16But first, since when did you get back from the UK?

00:30:20Oh, I just got back.

00:30:23Right after my parents divorced.

00:30:26Sorry, boss, it's time to go.

00:30:38Why give a shit about him?

00:30:40Hey, remember how his dad tried to steal power from your father?

00:30:43Yeah, but at the end of the day, we're all family.

00:30:46I heard it was all his idea, and he's the one who controls his father.

00:30:50Be careful.

00:30:53Henry, don't worry about it, okay?

00:30:57What's the worst thing you could do?

00:31:10Max, it's Alice.

00:31:14Can we talk?

00:31:15Alice?

00:31:17Max's wife.

00:31:19It's about us.

00:31:20Emma said that we should talk.

00:31:24Yes.

00:31:25I have been looking forward to seeing you two.

00:31:31It's about us.

00:31:33Emma said that we should talk.

00:31:34I have been looking forward to seeing you two.

00:31:39Really?

00:31:40I thought you'd hate to see me.

00:31:41No.

00:31:42No way.

00:31:45Say, why don't we meet up sometime next week?

00:31:48Okay, let's do it.

00:31:49Great.

00:31:51Oh, and Alice,

00:31:53I don't use this phone often.

00:31:56Let me give you my main number.

00:31:57No problem.

00:32:09Hmm.

00:32:11I knew you'd come back for his phone.

00:32:21Max,

00:32:22I have something for you.

00:32:24The woman you said you met yesterday,

00:32:27she sounded different than I expected,

00:32:28so I did some digging.

00:32:31I can't believe my mother still likes this woman.

00:32:33I'm sorry, Max.

00:32:34The evidence is undeniable.

00:32:36She did have an affair with her boss.

00:32:37We need to handle this carefully.

00:32:42Henry, I want you to follow up on this information,

00:32:44and I need you to keep this information under wraps.

00:32:46This is strictly family matter.

00:32:48Understood.

00:32:48I'll do everything I can to uncover the truth.

00:32:50Thanks, Henry.

00:32:51Okay.

00:32:54No, I'm really, really looking forward to seeing you.

00:32:59It's been so long.

00:33:01I can't wait either.

00:33:04And Emma said that you're planning the wedding, right?

00:33:08Yes.

00:33:09And I never stopped thinking about you, Alice.

00:33:12Why don't we just meet today?

00:33:14I'm at Greensdale Mall right now.

00:33:17That sounds great.

00:33:18I'll be there as soon as I can.

00:33:21Great.

00:33:21So many years have passed, Max.

00:33:24I'm so happy I found you again.

00:33:30Alice?

00:33:33Max!

00:33:35What are you doing here?

00:33:36You shopping for a hot date?

00:33:38As a matter of fact, yes.

00:33:40I am.

00:33:42Huh.

00:33:42Well, I hope he's worthy of you.

00:33:45I think so.

00:33:47You know what?

00:33:49I got a card for this mall.

00:33:50Take it.

00:33:51Use it for whatever you want.

00:33:53No.

00:33:54I can't do that.

00:33:55Please.

00:33:57For all the help that you gave me.

00:34:01Okay.

00:34:04Sure.

00:34:05Alice?

00:34:18What are you doing here?

00:34:21I'm shopping, Linda.

00:34:23What does it look like?

00:34:24Shopping.

00:34:25Of course.

00:34:26And I'm sure the only thing you can afford here

00:34:29is that iced coffee.

00:34:34What's your bags, miss?

00:34:37When you're ready, please pay with card.

00:34:39Thank you, Lucy.

00:34:41What?

00:34:43Thank you, Lucy.

00:34:45What?

00:34:46Hold on.

00:34:47Hold on.

00:34:48You can't afford this.

00:34:52Yes, I can.

00:34:54These are designer.

00:34:57And?

00:34:57Whatever.

00:35:00Just don't ask me to cover you later.

00:35:03You know, actually, Linda,

00:35:06I bet you couldn't afford these.

00:35:08You don't think I can?

00:35:12Please.

00:35:18And here's your receipt

00:35:20for $19,999.

00:35:23I'm sorry, how much?

00:35:27$20,000!

00:35:36Linda, what the hell did you buy?

00:35:38Tom, it's...

00:35:39It's just the shopping bill.

00:35:42Yes, it's a lot, but...

00:35:44I had to save base.

00:35:46Stay where you are.

00:35:46I'm coming to find you.

00:35:51Linda, what's the meaning behind this?

00:35:53It's all a trick, babe.

00:35:56She made me pay for it.

00:35:58Excuse me?

00:35:59Alice, you conned Linda into paying for your shit?

00:36:03I didn't con anyone, okay?

00:36:05She paid before I had the chance to.

00:36:07You scam artist!

00:36:08Well, I want my money back.

00:36:13Don't you touch her.

00:36:16Who the hell are you?

00:36:19I'm her husband.

00:36:22Now back off,

00:36:23if you don't want any trouble.

00:36:24I should have been here sooner.

00:36:40Alice, I'm sorry.

00:36:42I'm so sorry I left you four years ago.

00:36:46I've...

00:36:47I've really been regretting it every day since.

00:36:50It's okay.

00:36:52I'm just glad you're here now.

00:36:53Alice?

00:37:01That's probably her husband.

00:37:03I'll leave a bee.

00:37:13Come on in.

00:37:17Max, why don't you live at home?

00:37:19Well, I, um...

00:37:21I've been traveling a lot from work lately.

00:37:25I guess I just...

00:37:28I used to hotels.

00:37:32It's...

00:37:33cozy.

00:37:34I do try to make it feel like a coffee.

00:37:38Oh, Alice, I'm so sorry.

00:37:43Let me help you.

00:37:44I'm fine.

00:37:47Seeing as we barely know each other,

00:37:49I think I need more time.

00:37:51Alice.

00:38:02Alice.

00:38:04Alice, Alice, Alice.

00:38:07Are you playing hard to get?

00:38:09Yes.

00:38:10To seduce you?

00:38:11Hi, um...

00:38:20Can I get a towel?

00:38:21Please?

00:38:24Alice!

00:38:28Max!

00:38:30Hi.

00:38:31Oh!

00:38:35Max, what are you doing here?

00:38:37Alice, it is so good to see you.

00:38:40You're drunk.

00:38:43Mm-mm.

00:38:45It must be because of his wife.

00:38:48Let's get you home.

00:38:50Come on.

00:38:51I'll take you.

00:38:53Oh.

00:38:55Okay, if we'll just...

00:38:56Go this way.

00:38:57And then we're gonna go to your room.

00:38:59Here, hold.

00:39:00Careful, careful, careful.

00:39:00Oh, Alice.

00:39:05Alice.

00:39:07Matt, we shouldn't...

00:39:08I know.

00:39:12But I missed you.

00:39:19Good night.

00:39:20Bye.

00:39:27What am I doing?

00:39:28Why do I like him more than my own husband?

00:39:30Max, I saw your wife with another man.

00:39:39She went into a hotel and...

00:39:40Oh, I, uh...

00:39:44Didn't realize you were with Alice.

00:39:51What's going on, Henry?

00:39:53I saw Max's wife.

00:39:55I thought you should know.

00:39:56So she is cheating on him.

00:39:59Yeah.

00:40:01She's arrogant enough to cheat during the divorce.

00:40:07I should go.

00:40:10Wait, Alice, I'm sorry for the intrusion.

00:40:14Alice, please, don't go.

00:40:15Don't go.

00:40:15What's going on?

00:40:22Oranges?

00:40:23Actually, that's not me.

00:40:23That's at the house in the country.

00:40:26How about this?

00:40:27Max and Alice.

00:40:29Two hearts yearning for love.

00:40:31If only they knew how perfect they are for each other.

00:40:35I wouldn't be able to do this without you.

00:40:37Alice, I need to ask you something.

00:40:43It's about Max?

00:40:45Yeah.

00:40:46What is it?

00:40:47I see how you two could be happy together.

00:40:51Help him get the divorce soon and do it for the both of you.

00:40:55I have a husband.

00:40:57He has a wife.

00:40:58I'm here on a job.

00:41:00To help him get a divorce, I...

00:41:02Henry, please don't suggest something like that again.

00:41:04Let's just keep this professional.

00:41:07Allie, this is for the exceptional job you did last night.

00:41:19It is truly well-deserved.

00:41:21I love it.

00:41:23Put it on me.

00:41:33And...

00:41:34This is ready.

00:41:38Now I have all I need.

00:41:39We're going to get a lot of money.

00:41:41A lot.

00:41:44You're going to be richie?

00:41:45I'm sorry.

00:41:58I didn't mean to interrupt.

00:41:59You weren't interrupting.

00:42:01Really?

00:42:01We were just...

00:42:03Actually, I'm here on business.

00:42:07As you know, Max commissioned me to handle his divorce file.

00:42:11Oh, well, he should give me what I asked for.

00:42:15According to the terms, I am entitled to half his property.

00:42:18If this divorce goes public, his company's stock will tank, and we'll see who loses out then.

00:42:25I understand your position, Allie, but Max is firm on this, and he's willing to fight for what's right.

00:42:30Also, he knows about the affair you're having.

00:42:33Um, hello, I need to file a divorce case.

00:42:46Sorry, I don't take cheap cases like yours.

00:42:49But I need help.

00:42:51I handle high-profile cases, not common ones.

00:42:57I can help you.

00:42:59Thank you so much.

00:43:01I'm Alice.

00:43:02What's your name?

00:43:03Mr. Thompson Brown.

00:43:04I'm one of the board members at Legend Group.

00:43:11Lovely to meet you.

00:43:12Good to meet you.

00:43:13Mr. Brown, I apologize for any misunderstanding.

00:43:16Allie doesn't normally act like this.

00:43:18I came here to assess if your firm was worthy of our business.

00:43:24I didn't expect to be met with such arrogance, especially from a lawyer.

00:43:28Mr. Brown.

00:43:29Enough, Allie.

00:43:29You've made a grave error in judgment.

00:43:31You need to apologize to Mr. Brown right now.

00:43:35You may be the board member of the Legend Group, but I am the wife of the CEO, so why should I give a shit about you?

00:43:41Wow.

00:43:42I'll show you what I can do.

00:43:44Just you wait.

00:43:46Please!

00:43:49I've decided that in the future, I will seek your services alone.

00:43:53Not this law firm, but you alone.

00:43:57Actually, I'm not a lawyer.

00:43:59I'm just a marriage investigator.

00:44:01That's quite all right.

00:44:02I'm sure you'll get along great with our lawyers.

00:44:03You have made good progress on this case, Alice.

00:44:14I'm impressed.

00:44:16I apologize if I'm overstepping here, but I was wondering if you'd be interested in meeting my son, Michael.

00:44:25He's a fine young man.

00:44:28Well, I heard what you were about to suggest, Thompson.

00:44:31I must advise against it.

00:44:34Allie is married, and your son is not the type of person she should be involved with anyway.

00:44:41I assure you, Michael is a gentleman that would treat Alice with the utmost respect.

00:44:49I suggest only an introduction.

00:44:50Strictly professional.

00:44:51I know my daughter-in-law's value, and I won't have her entangled in your son's affairs.

00:45:01Allie, we should go.

00:45:05Thank you, Mr. Brown.

00:45:07I really appreciate the consideration, but I really should respect my mother-in-law's wishes.

00:45:13Of course, Alice.

00:45:21Missed opportunity, indeed.

00:45:26Allie, there are things about our family that you don't know, especially Mr. Brown and his son, Michael.

00:45:33He's not a good man.

00:45:35Why? What makes you say that?

00:45:44Michael went abroad after failing to seize control of family business.

00:45:48But now that he's back, he's looking to expand his reach.

00:45:52And your connection to Max makes you a valuable pawn in his games.

00:46:02That's awful.

00:46:03I refuse to be taken advantage of.

00:46:07I really thought Mr. Brown was different.

00:46:11I guess I was wrong.

00:46:13Thank you, Emma.

00:46:15Stay vigilant, Allie.

00:46:18Now, tonight, dress well.

00:46:22I've arranged a special family dinner for us.

00:46:25And Max will be there, too.

00:46:30Okay.

00:46:31I'll be there.

00:46:32Thank you, Emma.

00:46:41So, Allie, have you had a chance to meet with Max yet?

00:46:45Yes, we've met.

00:46:46He's been very enthusiastic.

00:46:49Well, that's good to hear.

00:46:52It's important that our family is united.

00:46:56Right.

00:46:57Yes.

00:47:01What?

00:47:03The warehouse is on fire?

00:47:06Shit!

00:47:07I need to go.

00:47:08You stay here and wait for Max, okay?

00:47:10Okay.

00:47:12God.

00:47:12What is this traffic, Henry?

00:47:18We've been sitting here for, like, 15 minutes.

00:47:20You know what?

00:47:21I'm going to walk the rest.

00:47:23I'll see you there.

00:47:26I guess it's just me.

00:47:30Alice!

00:47:31Oh, Max!

00:47:37Alice!

00:47:37Max, I was beginning to think you got lost.

00:47:42Not at all.

00:47:44It's lovely to see you again.

00:47:46I hope I haven't been keeping you waiting.

00:47:48No, no.

00:47:49You haven't.

00:47:50It's nice to see you, too.

00:47:52And I'm sorry about the other night.

00:47:56It's okay.

00:47:58It wasn't your fault.

00:48:00Besides, that's why my mother gave us a chance to get to know each other more.

00:48:03Yeah.

00:48:05Thank you for making this work.

00:48:08Sure.

00:48:09Um, what should we have?

00:48:13I'll tell you what.

00:48:15Let's enjoy a drink and then get out of here.

00:48:18There's something I want to show you.

00:48:22Okay.

00:48:23Great.

00:48:37Mom, where are you?

00:48:42I can't seem to find you or Allie.

00:48:44I'm dealing with the warehouse.

00:48:46She might have left.

00:48:48Next time, then.

00:48:49Ah, I see.

00:48:51Well, it's probably for the best.

00:48:54Wasn't really in the mood to see her tonight, anyway.

00:48:56Well, I thought we could have our own private dinner here.

00:49:08What do you think?

00:49:13It's beautiful, Max.

00:49:16Um, but why do you keep bringing me to hotels?

00:49:20Um, Alice, I...

00:49:22I understand that the last time wasn't the right time, seeing as I hadn't proposed yet.

00:49:30Matt.

00:49:34So, will you marry me?

00:49:38Max, um, this is all really sudden.

00:49:41I need time.

00:49:42Of course.

00:49:49But, uh...

00:49:50Know that my feelings for you are genuine.

00:49:56I know this is really frustrating for you.

00:49:59I want you to know that I really do want to make this work between us.

00:50:12What the fuck was that?

00:50:27Huh?

00:50:29I don't understand you.

00:50:31You left...

00:50:33You left your stuff here.

00:50:37Seduced me.

00:50:39Didn't you?

00:50:40Huh?

00:50:40Didn't you?

00:50:44You're nothing like what I imagined, Max.

00:50:47I...

00:50:47I need time.

00:50:49I...

00:50:49I can't force myself.

00:50:51I'm sorry.

00:50:51Shut your mouth.

00:50:53Just say your lies.

00:50:55Okay?

00:50:56All you women are...

00:50:58Seth.

00:50:59What are you saying?

00:51:00Now...

00:51:01I can finish...

00:51:03started.

00:51:07Never!

00:51:08You weren't like this before!

00:51:09You fucking bitch!

00:51:13Oh...

00:51:13You can't escape me, Alice!

00:51:24I can't do this, anyone.

00:51:26I want a divorce.

00:51:29Ellie, are you sure?

00:51:31You were once so confident.

00:51:33Why can't you try to work things out?

00:51:37I just can't.

00:51:39The marriage isn't what I hoped for.

00:51:42Sorry, Emma.

00:51:44Yeah, I understand your feelings, but...

00:51:47Divorce is a serious step.

00:51:50Are you certain you can't find a way to cultivate these feelings again?

00:51:55No.

00:51:56I need to move on.

00:51:59For my own sake.

00:52:04You know what?

00:52:05Allie keeps going behind my back and setting up dinners with my mom.

00:52:08I can't stand that one.

00:52:11You know, sometimes I think how nice it would be if I was married to a woman like Alice.

00:52:16You know, someone who understands me.

00:52:18Who connects with me at a deeper level.

00:52:19You know what, man?

00:52:23Forget her.

00:52:25Alice is a great woman and all, but...

00:52:27She's got a husband.

00:52:29And you have a wife.

00:52:31You need to...

00:52:32Face reality.

00:52:38Maybe it's time to end the show, right?

00:52:49Hello, Mom.

00:52:52Max, Allie has agreed to the divorce.

00:52:54It's going to be a clean break.

00:52:57Really?

00:52:58That's great news.

00:53:00How'd you get the gold digger to suddenly change her mind?

00:53:03She was never a gold digger, Max.

00:53:05I want you to know that.

00:53:07Yeah, yeah, yeah.

00:53:07Whatever you say, Mom.

00:53:10Penry, Allie finally decided for the divorce.

00:53:13What?

00:53:14That's unbelievable.

00:53:15Let's celebrate.

00:53:17Cheers, cheers.

00:53:18Mom, Mom along.

00:53:30Fuck, this woman is so annoying.

00:53:32She came to my mom's house.

00:53:34What are you doing here?

00:53:36I told you to leave me alone.

00:53:38I want to move on with my life.

00:53:41Have you no shame?

00:53:42I want to move on with my life.

00:53:51Yeah, you've got no shame?

00:53:52Because, see, on the surface, it seemed like you were good with the divorce.

00:53:56And now you're here trying to seduce me.

00:53:58What are you talking about?

00:54:00I'm not trying to seduce you.

00:54:02I'm done with your lies.

00:54:05Not lying.

00:54:06I came here to rest.

00:54:07Emma said that I could rest here.

00:54:12Save it for someone who cares.

00:54:15I'm done with your games.

00:54:19I'm not playing any games, Max.

00:54:21That voice sounded different.

00:54:38Alice, do you know that we've lost every one of our clients because of you?

00:54:43No, you can blame Mr. Thompson Brown for that.

00:54:48Actually, no, I would blame Allie for that.

00:54:51Hey, why don't you give me Max's divorce case?

00:54:54At least in my hands, I could save this law firm.

00:54:56Oh, you know, I highly doubt that.

00:54:59Plus, Max wouldn't agree to that.

00:55:02I already talked to him.

00:55:04And he already agreed.

00:55:06Well, if that's the case, then I'll wait for him to confirm it with me.

00:55:11Oh, Allie, have you seen my work phone anywhere?

00:55:16I must have missed like ten calls.

00:55:18Why don't you handle your own shit?

00:55:33Alice, my wife is someone that we cannot trust.

00:55:36Last night was just so disappointing.

00:55:38I mean, she came into my mom's home and she tried to seduce me.

00:55:42That's awful.

00:55:44I'm really sorry, Max.

00:55:47I have to ask you.

00:55:49Did you pass off the case to my boss, Stephen?

00:55:52No.

00:55:53No, why?

00:55:55No reason, I guess.

00:55:56They just wanted more information from you.

00:55:58I can't stand that woman.

00:56:02I mean, she probably got a certificate from the lawyers just to exploit me.

00:56:06I can't comment on that.

00:56:08But what I can say is that there are good lawyers and bad lawyers, and I would never do that to you.

00:56:13That woman is nothing compared to you, Alice.

00:56:22Max, I really don't want to hurt you.

00:56:25I can't be what you want me to be.

00:56:27Let's just try to finish this and move on with our lives amicably.

00:56:33I see.

00:56:49Alice, I've lost so much money, and my firm is dying because of you.

00:56:54If I can't be happy, neither can you.

00:56:57You're going to pay.

00:56:59Thanks for meeting me here again.

00:57:00Of course.

00:57:01You parked nearby?

00:57:02Oh, no.

00:57:03I was just going to...

00:57:05No, it's good.

00:57:05I'm parked right down this way.

00:57:07Alice!

00:57:11Oh.

00:57:22Max!

00:57:23Max, are you okay?

00:57:24Oh, my God.

00:57:24I'm going to call.

00:57:26Don't worry.

00:57:26Oh, my phone's broken.

00:57:27Okay, stay with me.

00:57:28Don't worry.

00:57:29Okay, stay with me.

00:57:30Stay with me.

00:57:31Max.

00:57:39Alice?

00:57:41Max.

00:57:42You're awake.

00:57:44How do you feel?

00:57:45Oh, Rocky.

00:57:48What happened?

00:57:50You were in an accident.

00:57:52You need to thank your wife, who carries you two blocks to get help.

00:57:56You did that for me?

00:57:59You saved me, too.

00:58:02It's just a mild concussion from the crash.

00:58:05You may experience symptoms such as headaches, dizziness, and some memory loss, but this is all normal.

00:58:13You hear that, Alice?

00:58:14I got a concussion.

00:58:17I might be a little bit slow and stupid for the rest of my life.

00:58:21Is that so?

00:58:23Yeah.

00:58:23I might need you to take care of me.

00:58:25Well, if that's the case, then I will.

00:58:30Don't you worry.

00:58:34This accident will not influence your BANG sex life or make you an idiot.

00:58:41Actually, he's, um, not my husband.

00:58:44Oh, pardon me.

00:58:51Sir.

00:58:52I've looked into the car accident.

00:58:54We've managed to identify the car, but the police haven't found the driver yet.

00:58:57Keep on it, Henry.

00:58:58I'm going to need you to look in to find out who did this.

00:59:00Of course, sir.

00:59:00Hello?

00:59:12Max, if you introduce me as the CEO's wife and board member of the upcoming business dinner,

00:59:17plus give me 20 million, I promise to divorce you.

00:59:20Fine.

00:59:21But this is going to be the last favor.

00:59:22Pleasure meeting you.

00:59:31This is my wife, Allie.

00:59:33She's the CEO of Legend Group, and she's the woman, the chairwoman of the whole board.

00:59:37Pleasure to meet you.

00:59:40Allie, could you tell us about your company's current investment strategy?

00:59:47Well, it's...

00:59:50Or you could tell us anything at all.

00:59:52About the company.

00:59:55Yeah.

00:59:57If you don't have anything to say about that, maybe you have something to say about this.

01:00:03It wasn't just me.

01:00:04It was Allie who asked me to hit Allison next.

01:00:09No.

01:00:10I had nothing to do with that.

01:00:13That's defamation.

01:00:15Why are you looking at me?

01:00:16It wasn't me.

01:00:17Henry?

01:00:18I swear.

01:00:19That wasn't...

01:00:20You guys, I'm being framed.

01:00:22Let me go!

01:00:23Let me go!

01:00:25No!

01:00:29Alice.

01:00:30I have something for you.

01:00:32The police recovered it from Allie.

01:00:34Here you go.

01:00:35My work phone.

01:00:36I've been looking everywhere for this.

01:00:39What are all these missed calls?

01:00:40Was Allie using my phone to call Max?

01:00:48Hello?

01:00:50Hold on.

01:00:51Wait.

01:00:54It's you!

01:00:58Why are you calling from her phone?

01:01:00I have something to tell you.

01:01:01Meet me at Moonfall Lodge Restaurant.

01:01:03Okay.

01:01:10Hey.

01:01:11Boss.

01:01:12I found out the truth about your wife.

01:01:15Henry.

01:01:16Please.

01:01:17Not now.

01:01:18I'm supposed to be meeting Alice here.

01:01:19Actually, sir.

01:01:20You're going to want to look at this.

01:01:21And you should cherish her.

01:01:24Do not mention this woman to me again.

01:01:27The woman I care about is Alice.

01:01:29You should know that by now.

01:01:30All right?

01:01:31Can't believe I'm so tied to this woman.

01:01:32Come here.

01:01:33You should know that by now.

01:01:34All right?

01:01:35Can't believe I'm so tied to this woman.

01:01:36Come here.

01:01:45Alice?

01:01:49Not Allie?

01:01:52Alice Smith is this woman I married.

01:01:55Not Allie?

01:01:58Alice.

01:01:59Alice is my wife.

01:02:00Alice Smith.

01:02:03Mm-hmm.

01:02:04The woman I married, the name is Taylor.

01:02:07It should be Allie Taylor.

01:02:09She used her mother's last name after she lost her father.

01:02:12And your wife's first name isn't Allie.

01:02:14It's Alice.

01:02:15And also, she was in your class in college, but you never paid attention to her.

01:02:19You've known her for a long time.

01:02:25Ahem.

01:02:30It's really you.

01:02:31It's really you.

01:02:32It's really you.

01:02:33It's really you.

01:02:34It's really you.

01:02:35It's really you.

01:02:36It's really you.

01:02:37It's really you.

01:02:39It's really you.

01:02:41It's really you.

01:02:42It's really you.

01:02:43It's really you.

01:02:45It's really you.

01:02:47It's really you.

01:02:48It's really you.
