00:00:00I, Elisa, a nobody in the workplace, single since birth for 23 years,
00:00:28never even held a man's hand, but last night, I accidentally slept with my boss.
00:00:33He's a CEO, he's the kind of guy that you read about in novels, and he already has a woman in his heart.
00:00:41Hey, it's been a really long night, and I think it should be a longer night.
00:00:50You should come over. I'll see you soon.
00:00:53What do you mean by question mark? Because you used to be fun. I have good wine.
00:01:04I'm in room 1501. I'll see you soon.
00:01:10I'm coming.
00:01:11I'm coming.
00:01:21Is there a sword?
00:01:25What are you doing?
00:01:26Take me back to the ground, because, girl, you look fine as hell.
00:01:35I'm not easily distracted, but you're acting like a magnet.
00:01:42You pull me in.
00:01:45Elisa.
00:01:53Hey, Mom.
00:01:54Please come home as soon as possible.
00:01:57I just received an order from the court.
00:01:59Since we are unable to repay the huge debt your father owed,
00:02:02our house will be auctioned off to pay off the debt.
00:02:06We must move out of the house now.
00:02:09Don't worry. I'm going to be right there.
00:02:10Okay.
00:02:15Mom, are you okay?
00:02:22I'm fine, honey.
00:02:25I'm so sorry I couldn't save the house.
00:02:30Don't worry.
00:02:31As long as we're together,
00:02:33we'll get through this difficult time.
00:02:36I'm sorry.
00:02:39Is there anything else in there?
00:02:41No.
00:02:42This is it.
00:02:45One second.
00:02:46Okay, I'll be right back.
00:02:48Hello?
00:02:50Elisa, where are you?
00:02:51Don't you remember we were supposed to meet?
00:02:53In the conference room at nine.
00:02:55Manager Smith's gone crazy looking for you.
00:02:57I'm so sorry, but something unexpected happened at home,
00:03:00and, um,
00:03:01if you could please just tell management that...
00:03:03Hello?
00:03:05No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
00:03:08Fuck.
00:03:10I just lost my house,
00:03:12and now I'm going to lose my job, too.
00:03:14Where am I going to find a million dollars?
00:03:20Elisa?
00:03:22Why are you crying?
00:03:26Um...
00:03:27Mr. Hawthorne, what are you doing here?
00:03:30Oh, I'm actually here for you.
00:03:31What?
00:03:32I need a marriage partner.
00:03:35Again, what?
00:03:36I need you to be my wife.
00:03:38Give it a thought.
00:03:42Mr. Hawthorne,
00:03:43I was
00:03:44really drunk last night,
00:03:46and I can't remember how everything happened after,
00:03:49but you really don't...
00:03:49Look, I know some unfortunate things
00:03:51have happened in your family recently.
00:03:55This card
00:03:56has more than enough on it
00:03:58to pay off all your debts
00:03:59and make sure that your house doesn't get auctioned off.
00:04:02If you agree,
00:04:04we can get the marriage certificate right now.
00:04:14Why do you want to help me?
00:04:16I told you.
00:04:17I need a wife.
00:04:19And you're the most suitable person.
00:04:20Okay.
00:04:28It's for my family.
00:04:30I have no other way.
00:04:34Mr. Hawthorne?
00:04:36Thank you so much for helping me.
00:04:38I promise I will pay you back
00:04:39every cent as soon as I can.
00:04:41You don't pay me back
00:04:42more than happy.
00:04:45I'm gonna get back to work then.
00:04:47Uh, Ronan will actually
00:04:48take you back.
00:04:50And I'll give you my home address,
00:04:52so you can move in tonight.
00:04:53Your home address?
00:04:56We're legally married.
00:04:58What's wrong with living together?
00:05:00Right.
00:05:01This is a deal.
00:05:02I can't just take the money
00:05:03and give nothing in return.
00:05:04I can get myself to work.
00:05:07And I'll be back on time tonight.
00:05:16Elisa,
00:05:17you're finally mine.
00:05:21Oh!
00:05:23Oh my god!
00:05:24I'm so sorry.
00:05:25It was reading
00:05:26and I didn't see you there.
00:05:27No, no worries.
00:05:28It's fine.
00:05:28It's fine.
00:05:29Can I have your name?
00:05:34I'm Elisa.
00:05:37Yo!
00:05:38Never knew Mr. Hawthorne
00:05:39would have such a silly smile moment.
00:05:42Alright.
00:05:46It's real?
00:05:47If your mom finds out
00:05:49you married a Cinderella.
00:05:50Alright, give it back.
00:05:52Then watch your mouth.
00:05:56You really married Mr. Hawthorne?
00:05:59To contract marriage.
00:06:01Oh, shh.
00:06:02I'll explain it to you later.
00:06:03Mrs. Elisa Hawthorne.
00:06:06You are the CEO's wife.
00:06:07So where is my pay rate?
00:06:09You couldn't help.
00:06:10We've known each other
00:06:11since middle school.
00:06:12I don't think he actually likes me.
00:06:14Plus, everyone in the company
00:06:15knows who he actually wants to be with.
00:06:20Ms. Harp is back!
00:06:29Hello, everyone.
00:06:35Please, help yourself to have some cake.
00:06:39Thank you, Ms. Hart.
00:06:40You are so very kind.
00:06:42It's really such an honor to work.
00:06:44Please, don't flatter me.
00:06:46I have to go see Mr. Hawthorne right now.
00:06:48He must want to see me right now.
00:06:51Save the slaves for me, honey.
00:06:54When do you think they will make their own relationship public?
00:06:56Probably soon.
00:06:58Last time I accidentally saw Mr. Hawthorne unlock his phone,
00:07:01the code is 0903, Ms. Hart's birthday,
00:07:03and isn't it a little too obvious?
00:07:05Wow, I never knew Mr. Hawthorne to be so romantic.
00:07:08He usually puts on a poker face.
00:07:10Amelia, my relationship with Mr. Hawthorne...
00:07:14Are you still done?
00:07:15Okay.
00:07:310903.
00:07:34That's Summer's birthday again.
00:07:36They love each other so much that...
00:07:38It's okay.
00:07:40Whatever it is,
00:07:41he's just not getting his money back.
00:07:42Okay.
00:07:45Why aren't you coming in?
00:07:54Why aren't you coming in?
00:07:56Mr. Hawthorne, I think that we should...
00:07:58Call me.
00:07:58Call me.
00:07:58Call me.
00:08:15What should I do?
00:08:20Am I supposed to sleep with him tonight?
00:08:22I know that we did that before,
00:08:24but I was drunk.
00:08:29If I turn him down,
00:08:30will he get angry?
00:08:31But if I don't...
00:08:34Melissa?
00:08:35You okay?
00:08:36I'm fine.
00:08:37Thank you for asking.
00:08:45I'm not ready.
00:08:54I was just going to turn off the light.
00:08:57What did you think I was going to do?
00:09:00Oh, yeah.
00:09:00No.
00:09:01Don't get me wrong.
00:09:02I just meant I wasn't ready to sleep yet.
00:09:05Alisa,
00:09:06I don't want some one-night stand.
00:09:09I want to be your everything.
00:09:15Matthew,
00:09:16why did the negotiations
00:09:17with the Sunlight Group fail?
00:09:19It's...
00:09:19Elisa's fault.
00:09:21If she hadn't skipped work that day,
00:09:22we could have succeeded.
00:09:24How is it her fault?
00:09:25Please give me a reasonable explanation.
00:09:28I heard someone saw
00:09:30Mr. Hawthorne
00:09:31entering her hotel room
00:09:33the night before Elisa skipped work.
00:09:36What?
00:09:36What did you say to me?
00:09:38It is absolutely true.
00:09:40Not only did she cause our failure,
00:09:43but she dared to seduce Mr. Hawthorne
00:09:46when you were away.
00:09:53Matthew,
00:09:54you know how important
00:09:56our negotiations
00:09:57with the Sunlight Group is.
00:09:59And since it is your subordinates' fault,
00:10:02you know what to do, right?
00:10:05Mr. Sherwood,
00:10:06I know what to do.
00:10:13Last night,
00:10:14with Lucian laying beside me,
00:10:16I couldn't sleep at all.
00:10:19Elisa,
00:10:20is this how you do your job?
00:10:22Look what trouble you brought us!
00:10:24It is because of you
00:10:25that we lost the project
00:10:26with Sunlight Group.
00:10:27You're fired.
00:10:28Mr. Clark,
00:10:30I was only in charge
00:10:31of the initial budget,
00:10:32not the negotiations.
00:10:33I don't understand
00:10:34how this could be my fault.
00:10:35Did you forget
00:10:36about your unexcused absence
00:10:37last time?
00:10:40Did you forget
00:10:41about your unexcused absence
00:10:43last time?
00:10:44That's because something unexpected
00:10:45happened at home,
00:10:46but I called in
00:10:47for a leave of absence.
00:10:47So what?
00:10:49We needed you last minute
00:10:50and you weren't there.
00:10:51Now that the project has failed,
00:10:53if you're not to blame,
00:10:54who else would it be?
00:10:57I was absent that day,
00:10:59yes,
00:10:59but I prepared
00:11:00the initial budget
00:11:01ahead of time,
00:11:01so there is no way
00:11:02that my absence
00:11:03would have affected
00:11:03the negotiations.
00:11:06Wouldn't have affected
00:11:07the negotiations?
00:11:09Elisa,
00:11:09take a closer look.
00:11:11What did you write
00:11:12in the project budget?
00:11:16No,
00:11:17no, no, no,
00:11:17this isn't right.
00:11:18I wrote 50 million.
00:11:20How did it become
00:11:215 million?
00:11:21For a professional
00:11:28budget analyst,
00:11:29you've made
00:11:29such a sloppy mistake.
00:11:32Elisa,
00:11:32do you have anything
00:11:33else to say for yourself?
00:11:35Looks like Elisa
00:11:36is in trouble.
00:11:38Elisa always strikes me
00:11:39as a professional.
00:11:40How could she make
00:11:41such an error?
00:11:42Keep it down.
00:11:43Can't you see?
00:11:45They're just trying to find
00:11:45something to take
00:11:46responsibility.
00:11:50Wait,
00:11:51I have evidence
00:11:52to prove that
00:11:52my budget was correct.
00:11:57Evidence?
00:11:57Then why don't you
00:11:58show it to everyone?
00:11:59I have the dated
00:12:00source files on my
00:12:01computer that can show
00:12:02that I had the right
00:12:02numbers.
00:12:04No,
00:12:05no,
00:12:05they were right here.
00:12:06How could they be gone?
00:12:08Elisa,
00:12:08are you joking?
00:12:09Where's your so-called
00:12:11evidence?
00:12:12Elisa,
00:12:12are you suggesting
00:12:15that Mr. Clark
00:12:16and Miss Hart
00:12:16are conspiring
00:12:17against you?
00:12:19You better pack up
00:12:20and leave now
00:12:20before making a bigger
00:12:21fool out of yourself.
00:12:22What are you saying?
00:12:24I've seen the budget
00:12:25Elisa made.
00:12:26We all checked it
00:12:27as a team.
00:12:30Obviously,
00:12:31someone tampered with it.
00:12:32Are you saying
00:12:33that we are framing her?
00:12:35At the very least,
00:12:36she deserves a good
00:12:37reason to be fine.
00:12:38Fine.
00:12:39If anyone else
00:12:40can vouch for Elisa,
00:12:41I can give her
00:12:42a second chance.
00:12:44Anyone?
00:12:47Weren't you there
00:12:48when we checked
00:12:49that time?
00:12:49I don't remember.
00:12:54Since there's no one,
00:12:56Elisa,
00:12:57would you like
00:12:57to walk yourself out
00:12:59or would you like
00:12:59me to have someone
00:13:00escort you out?
00:13:05This better be
00:13:07something important.
00:13:08Mr. Hawthorne,
00:13:08the business department
00:13:09is in uproar.
00:13:10So?
00:13:11Can Summer handle it?
00:13:12She started it.
00:13:14Her and Mr. Clark
00:13:15are trying to fire
00:13:15Mrs. Hawthorne.
00:13:18Let's go.
00:13:20Amelia, it's okay.
00:13:22They clearly just want
00:13:23someone to blame
00:13:24for this entire thing.
00:13:25So what should we do then?
00:13:26Allow them to push
00:13:27all the blame onto you?
00:13:30Ms. Hart?
00:13:32Mr. Clark?
00:13:33I'll step down
00:13:34from my position,
00:13:35but I will never admit
00:13:36to mistakes
00:13:37that I didn't make.
00:13:38I will get down
00:13:39to the bottom of this.
00:13:40You're shameless.
00:13:42The evidence is right here.
00:13:44Where do you get
00:13:44the nerve to deny it?
00:13:46Besides the project book,
00:13:47there's also surveillance
00:13:48footage
00:13:48and there are
00:13:49computer backend logs.
00:13:50All of these will prove
00:13:51that my budget was correct
00:13:52and I will investigate
00:13:54this until the end.
00:13:56There is no need
00:13:58for an investigation.
00:13:59You have already
00:14:00been fired.
00:14:03since you refused
00:14:04to leave.
00:14:05Security?
00:14:07Track her out.
00:14:14Elisa,
00:14:15you dare to seduce
00:14:16the man I like
00:14:17when I'm not around?
00:14:18You'll never
00:14:19set foot in Hottom
00:14:20for ever again.
00:14:25Summer?
00:14:25What are you doing?
00:14:30Why is he here?
00:14:32Could it be
00:14:32he's here to support Summer?
00:14:34Lucian,
00:14:35what brings you here?
00:14:37Let her go.
00:14:39What's going on
00:14:40with these two?
00:14:41Am I fired or not?
00:14:43Could it be
00:14:44I'm just a pawn
00:14:45in their game?
00:14:46Care to explain
00:14:47what's going on?
00:14:47Well,
00:14:48Elisa made a big mistake
00:14:49at work,
00:14:50so I fired her.
00:14:51But she refused
00:14:53to leave,
00:14:53disrupting everyone
00:14:54at work.
00:14:55So Matthew
00:14:56called security
00:14:56to escort her out.
00:14:58Fire for what?
00:14:59Here's the thing,
00:15:00Mr. Hawthorne.
00:15:01The negotiations
00:15:01with the Sun Lake group
00:15:03failed due to
00:15:04Elisa's mistake.
00:15:05We had to let her go
00:15:06according to
00:15:06company regulations.
00:15:07You set me up
00:15:08with some
00:15:09half-baked plan,
00:15:10tried to fire me
00:15:11and then called security.
00:15:12Is that within
00:15:13the lines of regulation?
00:15:15Elisa,
00:15:15how dare you question
00:15:17company regulations
00:15:18in front of Mr. Hawthorne?
00:15:19Lucian,
00:15:20see?
00:15:20She won't admit
00:15:21her mistakes
00:15:22and she even
00:15:22questions you
00:15:23in public.
00:15:26Oh God,
00:15:27now I'm really fired.
00:15:31Elisa actually
00:15:32talked back
00:15:33to Mr. Hawthorne.
00:15:34She has to be
00:15:35fired now.
00:15:39I'm actually
00:15:39pitying her,
00:15:40no matter what.
00:15:41Pitying her?
00:15:43You're an employee
00:15:43too.
00:15:44Mind your own
00:15:45business.
00:15:47Elisa,
00:15:48you sure are
00:15:48bald, aren't you?
00:15:49Elisa,
00:15:50don't you know
00:15:51what Mr. Hawthorne
00:15:52means?
00:15:52Hurry up and leave.
00:15:54Of course
00:15:55Lucian is on
00:15:55Summer's side.
00:15:57I'm just his wife
00:15:58out of nowhere.
00:16:00Surely I'm
00:16:01no match
00:16:01for his lover.
00:16:08Hold on.
00:16:09Did I tell you to
00:16:14leave?
00:16:15You're not
00:16:15angry?
00:16:16Why would I be
00:16:17angry?
00:16:18The company
00:16:19needs to find out
00:16:19who's responsible
00:16:20for Sunrise
00:16:20Groove Project
00:16:21first.
00:16:22Ronan, take
00:16:23charge of that.
00:16:23Yes,
00:16:23Mr. Hawthorne.
00:16:24So what you're
00:16:25saying is I'm
00:16:25not fired?
00:16:27At least for now.
00:16:32Lucian,
00:16:32Elisa not only
00:16:33made mistakes
00:16:34on this project,
00:16:34but she was
00:16:35absent from work
00:16:35without permission
00:16:36and she defied
00:16:37you in public.
00:16:38Summer, I'll
00:16:38handle company
00:16:39policy, okay?
00:16:41But we never,
00:16:42ever fire an
00:16:43employee for no
00:16:44reason.
00:16:46I, I agree
00:16:47with Lucian.
00:16:49Matthew, I told
00:16:51you to wait
00:16:51until the
00:16:51investigation was
00:16:52done, but you
00:16:53insisted that the
00:16:53results were clear.
00:16:55Apologize to Mr.
00:16:56Hawthorne right
00:16:56now.
00:16:57Yes, Ms. Hart.
00:16:59Is Lucian
00:17:00helping me?
00:17:01But as a CEO,
00:17:03he needs to do
00:17:03things fairly in
00:17:04front of his
00:17:04employees.
00:17:05This proves
00:17:06nothing.
00:17:07Elisa, may I
00:17:08have a few
00:17:08words with you?
00:17:13Elisa, you
00:17:14are damn
00:17:15lucky this
00:17:15time, but you
00:17:16won't be for
00:17:17the next time.
00:17:28Mr. Hawthorne,
00:17:29if this is about
00:17:30the project, then
00:17:31I'm so sorry
00:17:31that you were
00:17:32bothered.
00:17:32Do you think
00:17:33that's why I
00:17:33brought you here?
00:17:35Do you think
00:17:37that's why I
00:17:38brought you here?
00:17:38Next time
00:17:39something like that
00:17:40happens, come see
00:17:40me.
00:17:41Don't let me
00:17:42handle it.
00:17:43You're so busy.
00:17:45I didn't want to
00:17:45bother you.
00:17:47We're married.
00:17:51You can do
00:17:52whatever you want.
00:17:53We're at the office.
00:17:55Fool around.
00:17:56Fool around?
00:17:57Well, that's the proper
00:17:59thing, since we're
00:18:00married.
00:18:02Well, by that, I guess
00:18:04you mean I should act
00:18:06like your wife all the
00:18:07time, even while we're
00:18:09at work.
00:18:10That's not necessarily
00:18:12what I mean.
00:18:14Well, if that's all,
00:18:15Mr. Hawthorne, I guess
00:18:16I'll be going back to
00:18:17work.
00:18:17Alyssa, when you were in
00:18:36Mr. Hawthorne's office,
00:18:38I was hard.
00:18:39I can't really understand
00:18:40the theater over here.
00:18:41Can you help me, please?
00:18:42Ms. Hart, may I help
00:18:51you?
00:18:51You are still under
00:18:53investigation.
00:18:54Now isn't the current
00:18:55time for you to be working
00:18:56on company projects.
00:18:57But I was just looking
00:18:58over the project budget
00:18:59for the next thing.
00:19:01Your current mission is
00:19:01to go downstairs and fetch
00:19:02me a cup of coffee.
00:19:04Can't you see the trash is
00:19:05full?
00:19:06Clean it.
00:19:08Ms. Hart, I'm an
00:19:10analyst.
00:19:10I'm not an intern.
00:19:11What?
00:19:13Are you defying your
00:19:14superior?
00:19:15Someone is really
00:19:16ignorant.
00:19:17She hasn't been
00:19:17clarified yet.
00:19:18Now she's defined her
00:19:19superior.
00:19:20Does she think she owns
00:19:21the company?
00:19:22Right?
00:19:24Ms. Hart is not just
00:19:25a daughter of a
00:19:25noble family.
00:19:27She also has an
00:19:27unusual relationship
00:19:29with our president.
00:19:30It would be in your
00:19:30best interest to help
00:19:32Ms. Hart with the
00:19:32trifle.
00:19:34Stop being ungrateful.
00:19:35Alyssa, I can have
00:19:37you fired for defying
00:19:38your superior.
00:19:39So you better
00:19:40choose wisely.
00:19:42You're right.
00:19:43I like my job and
00:19:44I'm going to become
00:19:45an excellent executive
00:19:46in my dream company.
00:19:49Fine.
00:19:51I'll do it.
00:19:59Better to bend
00:20:00than break, huh?
00:20:01It doesn't matter.
00:20:03Let's see how long
00:20:04you can keep tolerating.
00:20:08Ms. Hart?
00:20:09Your coffee.
00:20:10Hand it to me.
00:20:20Oh my god,
00:20:21this coffee's so hot
00:20:22you almost burned me alive.
00:20:24Oh my god,
00:20:24I'm so sorry.
00:20:25Are you okay?
00:20:26Don't you know
00:20:27I only drink
00:20:27ice americano?
00:20:28Who hired you anyway?
00:20:30I'm so sorry.
00:20:31I will go buy you one right now.
00:20:32Can't you see
00:20:33there's coffee on the floor?
00:20:34Clean it up now.
00:20:42Who told you
00:20:43you could mop the floor
00:20:44with that?
00:20:45If you damage the floors,
00:20:46can you afford to pay for them?
00:20:48How exactly would you like me
00:20:49to mop the floor, Ms. Hart?
00:20:51With a cloth
00:20:52on your hands and knees
00:20:54inch by inch.
00:20:56Summer,
00:20:57don't you think
00:20:57you're going a little too far?
00:20:59What?
00:20:59Can't handle it?
00:21:00You could always quit.
00:21:08Well,
00:21:09by that I guess you mean
00:21:10I should act like your wife
00:21:12all the time?
00:21:14Even while we're at work?
00:21:17Mr. Hawthorne,
00:21:18there's an upcoming
00:21:19online meeting
00:21:20with an overseas company.
00:21:22Uh-huh.
00:21:23Hey,
00:21:23is the business department
00:21:25next to the meeting room?
00:21:26Yes, Mr. Hawthorne.
00:21:27Let's pay you to visit first.
00:21:28He's just a part
00:21:31from Mrs. Hawthorne and he's already
00:21:32so eager to see her.
00:21:33He's completely in love
00:21:34for that.
00:21:34I'm sorry.
00:21:37Ms. Hart,
00:21:38would you please
00:21:38lift your foot?
00:21:43Oh, I'm sorry.
00:21:44I didn't do it on the bed.
00:21:47Elise,
00:21:48when you were
00:21:49seducing Lucian
00:21:50when I was away,
00:21:51have you ever thought
00:21:52of today?
00:21:53I didn't seduce him.
00:21:56You didn't!
00:21:56Do you really think
00:21:58I wouldn't know
00:21:59because I was away?
00:22:00You didn't!
00:22:01If you were to seduce Lucian,
00:22:02then you must
00:22:03be prepared
00:22:04for my return.
00:22:05Simba,
00:22:06what the hell
00:22:06are you doing?
00:22:10Simba,
00:22:10what the hell
00:22:11are you doing?
00:22:12Lucian!
00:22:12Alyssa,
00:22:13you're right?
00:22:13Elise is still
00:22:14under investigation,
00:22:15right?
00:22:15She's not suitable
00:22:16for working on
00:22:17company projects,
00:22:18so I had her doing
00:22:20simpler tasks
00:22:20like fetching me coffee,
00:22:22but she spilled
00:22:23the coffee on purpose.
00:22:24That isn't true.
00:22:25It doesn't matter anyway,
00:22:26I don't blame her for it,
00:22:27but she insisted
00:22:28on wiping it up.
00:22:29I stepped on her
00:22:29by accident.
00:22:31I was about
00:22:31to apologize to her.
00:22:33Is that so?
00:22:35Elise,
00:22:36is that actually
00:22:36what happened?
00:22:37Lucian is in love
00:22:38with Summer.
00:22:39Even if I told the truth,
00:22:40would he believe me?
00:22:42Yes,
00:22:43it's the truth.
00:22:45Come with me
00:22:46to my office.
00:22:48Come.
00:22:49Why on earth
00:22:51did Lucian
00:22:52call Elisa
00:22:53to his office again?
00:22:55We must find out.
00:23:02Have a seat.
00:23:05Your hands hurt.
00:23:07You need a bandage.
00:23:08It's,
00:23:08it's really fine.
00:23:10I can just go home
00:23:11and...
00:23:11No, no,
00:23:11I got it all right.
00:23:12Have a seat.
00:23:13All right,
00:23:18let's see.
00:23:20You know,
00:23:20Summer is competent,
00:23:22but she can be
00:23:23bossy and overbearing.
00:23:25I can transfer you
00:23:26to another department
00:23:26if you can't bear her.
00:23:29Maybe mine.
00:23:30So I can't
00:23:31spend more time together.
00:23:32No,
00:23:33no,
00:23:33I'm fine
00:23:34in the business department.
00:23:35Elisa,
00:23:36you're my wife.
00:23:37I don't want
00:23:38you to be bullied anymore.
00:23:39Stop pretending
00:23:40like you don't know
00:23:41she only does that
00:23:42because she's in love
00:23:43with you.
00:23:43Okay,
00:23:44last step.
00:23:48Okay,
00:23:49just don't let this hand
00:23:49touch water for a moment.
00:23:51Thank you,
00:23:52Mr. Hawthorne.
00:23:54It's just the two of us.
00:23:56You can call me
00:23:57by my name.
00:23:58Well,
00:23:58we're at work.
00:23:59I thought I shouldn't.
00:24:00Yeah,
00:24:00why shouldn't you?
00:24:01Lucian,
00:24:02why did you marry me?
00:24:03And why do you
00:24:04keep defending me?
00:24:06Do you really
00:24:07not know why?
00:24:08We've known each other
00:24:09since high school,
00:24:10but he's always
00:24:11kind of ignored me.
00:24:13Hasn't he always
00:24:13had a thing for summer?
00:24:15Or could it be
00:24:16that everyone
00:24:16has been wrong
00:24:17all along?
00:24:24Bloody Elisa,
00:24:26you sure are good
00:24:27at playing naive.
00:24:29I must find a way
00:24:30to teach you
00:24:30a lesson.
00:24:33A reunion party?
00:24:35The gods
00:24:36are favoring me.
00:24:38Elisa,
00:24:39I must teach you
00:24:40a lesson this time.
00:24:47All right.
00:24:48It's ready.
00:24:50How many slices
00:24:50do you want?
00:24:52Mom,
00:24:52what's wrong?
00:24:53Elisa,
00:24:54isn't our house
00:24:55supposed to be
00:24:56auctioned off
00:24:56by the court
00:24:58to pay off our debts?
00:25:00Why hasn't this
00:25:01happened yet?
00:25:02Um,
00:25:03well,
00:25:06I borrowed some money
00:25:08from a friend
00:25:09to help pay off
00:25:10the debts.
00:25:11What friend
00:25:11could afford
00:25:12to lend you
00:25:13so much money
00:25:14at once?
00:25:16Since we went
00:25:17bankrupt,
00:25:18all our old
00:25:19friends have
00:25:19disappeared.
00:25:21Well,
00:25:22Mom,
00:25:22you don't have to
00:25:25worry about it.
00:25:26It's okay.
00:25:26Elisa.
00:25:31Hey.
00:25:32Elisa,
00:25:32what took you
00:25:33so long?
00:25:34What's up?
00:25:35There's a school
00:25:35reunion party
00:25:36this weekend.
00:25:37They notified us
00:25:38in the group,
00:25:38but I figured
00:25:39you haven't read it
00:25:40yet since you
00:25:41didn't respond,
00:25:42so I'm just
00:25:42giving you a heads
00:25:43up.
00:25:44It's been ages.
00:25:45Why is there
00:25:46a high school
00:25:46reunion party
00:25:47out of nowhere?
00:25:48Here's the
00:25:49monthly report
00:25:50from the
00:25:50business department.
00:25:52Just leave
00:25:52it over there.
00:25:52Yeah.
00:25:56How about
00:26:00we grab a drink
00:26:01tonight?
00:26:02I know a good
00:26:02place.
00:26:03I actually
00:26:03have plans
00:26:04tonight.
00:26:06If you don't
00:26:06have anything
00:26:06else,
00:26:07you can leave.
00:26:08Lucian,
00:26:09it's been so
00:26:09long.
00:26:10Summer,
00:26:10I said I'm
00:26:11busy.
00:26:12Please,
00:26:12leave.
00:26:17Hold on.
00:26:18Will you be
00:26:18at the high
00:26:18school reunion?
00:26:19Summer,
00:26:20how many ways
00:26:20do I have to
00:26:20say this?
00:26:21I'm busy.
00:26:22Leave.
00:26:23Lucian,
00:26:24you have to
00:26:25be so gentle
00:26:26with me.
00:26:26But ever
00:26:27since
00:26:27Elisa came,
00:26:28it'll become
00:26:29colder and
00:26:29colder.
00:26:31Elisa,
00:26:33I don't
00:26:33want to
00:26:33leave you
00:26:33at least
00:26:34I don't
00:26:34want to
00:26:35leave.
00:26:39I wonder
00:26:39if Lucian
00:26:40received the
00:26:41invitation to
00:26:41the reunion.
00:26:43Is he
00:26:43going?
00:26:44Something on
00:26:45your mind?
00:26:45It's not a
00:26:46big deal,
00:26:47but there's
00:26:48the high
00:26:48school reunion
00:26:48party later.
00:26:50Are you
00:26:50going?
00:26:52Are you
00:26:52going?
00:26:53I don't
00:26:54know.
00:26:55I knew
00:26:55I made a
00:26:55good point,
00:26:56but we
00:26:56don't
00:26:56really see
00:26:57each other
00:26:57that often.
00:26:58Thought it'd
00:26:59be nice
00:26:59to get
00:26:59together.
00:27:00Um,
00:27:01you know
00:27:01what?
00:27:02I actually
00:27:03have a meeting.
00:27:04I think I'll
00:27:04pass.
00:27:05Okay.
00:27:06Yeah,
00:27:07that's fair.
00:27:08I'll send you
00:27:08some of those
00:27:09since I can't be
00:27:09there.
00:27:10You really don't
00:27:11know what to do
00:27:11yet.
00:27:12And I know
00:27:12it's far,
00:27:13so take this.
00:27:16Lucian,
00:27:17it's...
00:27:17that's way
00:27:18too expensive.
00:27:19I'm just
00:27:20going to take this
00:27:20away.
00:27:20Elisa,
00:27:22I'm capable
00:27:23of offering
00:27:24you a better
00:27:24life.
00:27:25Why would you
00:27:25take this
00:27:26subway?
00:27:27Consider this
00:27:28a gift.
00:27:29Lucian is
00:27:30acting like
00:27:30he actually
00:27:31likes me.
00:27:33What game
00:27:34is he playing?
00:27:35It's mine.
00:27:36Take it.
00:27:39You're just
00:27:40giving this
00:27:40to me?
00:27:41Well,
00:27:42I'm your
00:27:42husband.
00:27:43Legally
00:27:44speaking,
00:27:44it's mine
00:27:45as yours.
00:27:45Well,
00:27:47thank you
00:27:48then.
00:27:53This is a
00:27:54customized
00:27:55version.
00:27:56It probably
00:27:56costs millions.
00:27:57Jesus,
00:27:58Elisa.
00:27:59If it
00:27:59weren't for
00:27:59you,
00:27:59I'd never
00:28:00get to be
00:28:00in such
00:28:00a luxurious
00:28:01car.
00:28:02Seems like
00:28:03Mr. Hawthorne
00:28:03really is
00:28:04madly in love
00:28:05with you.
00:28:05You know,
00:28:05I'm still
00:28:06at the point
00:28:06where I'm
00:28:06wondering
00:28:07if he
00:28:07even likes
00:28:07me.
00:28:09He does
00:28:09treat me
00:28:09well,
00:28:10though.
00:28:11You know
00:28:11all of his
00:28:11passwords are
00:28:12still Summer's
00:28:13birthday.
00:28:14I don't
00:28:15know.
00:28:15I'm
00:28:16probably
00:28:16just
00:28:16overthinking.
00:28:17Maybe
00:28:18it's
00:28:18a
00:28:19misunderstanding
00:28:20or a
00:28:21coincidence.
00:28:23I feel
00:28:23like Mr.
00:28:24Hawthorne is
00:28:24quite cold
00:28:25to Summer.
00:28:25I don't
00:28:26think he's
00:28:26into her.
00:28:27No,
00:28:27that's
00:28:27just
00:28:27because
00:28:27he's

00:30:09I've

00:30:09mates.
00:30:14Sorry,
00:30:15I'm late.
00:30:15Traffic
00:30:16was terrible.
00:30:18Never mind.
00:30:19It's our
00:30:19honor to
00:30:19have you.
00:30:20Summer,
00:30:20did you
00:30:21buy a new
00:30:21sports car?
00:30:23Not
00:30:23really.
00:30:24I just
00:30:25picked this
00:30:25one out of
00:30:26the garage
00:30:26because I
00:30:26was in a
00:30:27hurry.
00:30:28I'm
00:30:28actually tired
00:30:29of driving
00:30:29it I
00:30:30haven't used
00:30:30in.
00:30:31A sports
00:30:32car?
00:30:33That's
00:30:33something I
00:30:33can never
00:30:34afford.
00:30:34It's not
00:30:35that much.
00:30:36It's only
00:30:37a few
00:30:37hundred
00:30:38thousand.
00:30:39Wow,
00:30:40Summer
00:30:40surely is
00:30:41rich.
00:30:42Such an
00:30:43expensive
00:30:43car,
00:30:44but it's
00:30:44like nothing
00:30:45to her.
00:30:45Naturally,
00:30:46don't you
00:30:47know who
00:30:47Summer
00:30:47is?
00:30:48Such
00:30:49a
00:30:49lottery
00:30:49car
00:30:50and
00:30:50nothing

00:30:53as
00:30:53she
00:30:53wants.
00:30:54Which
00:30:55is
00:30:55not
00:30:55shh.
00:30:57Elisa,
00:30:58what
00:30:58car
00:30:58did
00:30:58you
00:30:59drive
00:30:59here?
00:31:01She?
00:31:04How could
00:31:04a poor
00:31:04girl like
00:31:05her afford
00:31:05a car?
00:31:06She
00:31:06must be
00:31:06taking
00:31:06the subway.
00:31:08What,
00:31:08does she
00:31:09race?
00:31:09That's
00:31:10the reason?
00:31:11Elisa,
00:31:12the subway
00:31:12will soon
00:31:13stop running.
00:31:14Do you
00:31:14want me
00:31:14to give
00:31:15you a
00:31:15ride?
00:31:16Oh,
00:31:16Summer,
00:31:17you're
00:31:17still so
00:31:17kind-hearted,
00:31:19but how
00:31:19could
00:31:20somebody
00:31:20as
00:31:21low
00:31:21as
00:31:21her

00:31:22riding
00:31:22in
00:31:23your
00:31:23luxury

00:31:25Be careful
00:31:25not to
00:31:26get her
00:31:26power
00:31:27descends
00:31:27all over
00:31:27you.
00:31:28It
00:31:28probably
00:31:28won't
00:31:28come
00:31:28off.
00:31:29What
00:31:29nonsense
00:31:30are you
00:31:30talking
00:31:30about?
00:31:31Elisa
00:31:31didn't
00:31:32take
00:31:32the
00:31:32subway
00:31:32and
00:31:32it
00:31:33wouldn't
00:31:33matter
00:31:33if
00:31:33she
00:31:33did.
00:31:35She drove
00:31:35here.
00:31:36I have a fancy
00:31:37new limited edition
00:31:38convertible and
00:31:40something more
00:31:41expensive than you can imagine.
00:31:43Oh my god,
00:31:44what a big mouth.
00:31:46What the hell?
00:31:47It really is a convertible.
00:31:48Impossible.
00:31:50She can never afford that.
00:31:52Elisa,
00:31:52did you rent a car
00:31:54just to show off
00:31:55at the reunion?
00:31:56It's not rented.
00:31:58Not rented?
00:31:59Who are you trying to fool?
00:32:00You can't afford even the cheapest one of such cars, even if you're selling yourself.
00:32:05Summer, is Hawthorne Group really that good?
00:32:09Even a little employee can afford such a fancy convertible?
00:32:13Hardly.
00:32:13Although Hawthorne Group does have good benefits, it's not to that extent.
00:32:19With her salary, she could probably never afford it, even if she worked herself to death.
00:32:24Alyssa, we're all classmates here.
00:32:28You don't have to pretend to be rich.
00:32:29It probably costs half of your salary to rent that car.
00:32:32It's best not to be so vain.
00:32:34What's the point of it?
00:32:35It's like the Cinderella.
00:32:36It will revert to its true form after midnight.
00:32:39Alyssa, don't you find yourself ridiculous?
00:32:42Of course.
00:32:43Can they whip this guy to be rich?
00:32:45It was hardy to disappoint you,
00:32:46but it's not rented.
00:32:48It's a gift from my husband.
00:32:50Mr. Hawthorne, Mr. Hawthorne's arrived.
00:32:55The meeting can start any time.
00:32:56All right.
00:32:57Oh, hey, by the way, my wife is having a class reunion.
00:33:00Invite someone over to some fine wine.
00:33:02Would I have some fun?
00:33:03Yes, Mr. Hawthorne.
00:33:05I was hardy to disappoint you, but it's not rented.
00:33:08It's a gift from my husband.
00:33:10Alyssa, what's the point of lying?
00:33:13First, you rent a car to show off at the reunion,
00:33:17and now you're making up a story about a wealthy husband?
00:33:21Are you living in a novel?
00:33:23Summer, aren't we colleagues with Alyssa?
00:33:25You should know if she's married or not, right?
00:33:29It's not my business.
00:33:31Even though I'm her superior, I try not to pry.
00:33:35Although I don't think so.
00:33:37If she really had a rich husband,
00:33:40why would she work for so little in the library?
00:33:43So, Alyssa is lying again?
00:33:46She is so shameless.
00:33:49Amelia, I think you should stay with Alyssa.
00:33:53She got a bad influence on you.
00:33:57And what do you know?
00:34:00Alyssa's husband.
00:34:02Okay, okay, you guys keep partying.
00:34:05Uh, Amelia?
00:34:05Let's go.
00:34:07Excuse me.
00:34:12These are the wines set by Mr. Hawthorne.
00:34:17Oh!
00:34:201982 Lafitte?
00:34:22But we didn't order these wines!
00:34:24I'll send you something else since I can't be there.
00:34:26The wine is for me, right?
00:34:29He did say he would send something over.
00:34:31This is too much.
00:34:33Summer, this wine must be a special gift for Mr. Hawthorne for you.
00:34:36Yeah, the only one among us who deserves such attention for Mr. Hawthorne is Summer.
00:34:42Who else could it be?
00:34:43This wine is for Mr. Hawthorne too.
00:34:45Summer and Mr. Hawthorne have been a perfect match in school.
00:34:48And now they're still so affectionately.
00:34:49And now they're still so affectionately.
00:34:51I wonder if they're gonna get married soon.
00:34:53Of course!
00:34:54Summer is future president's wife.
00:34:56Unlike someone.
00:34:58Oh, Elisa.
00:35:00You see?
00:35:01You can never shake my bond with Lucian.
00:35:04All right, everyone.
00:35:05Since they're Shinsen over these wines, let's enjoy them together.
00:35:09But Summer, this is 1982 Lafitte.
00:35:12I think some people here are not worthy of drinking such fine wine.
00:35:18They say cast your pearls before swine.
00:35:20Even if you let Elisa drink it, she wouldn't know how good Lafitte is.
00:35:24That's true.
00:35:25To pay into her would be a waste.
00:35:27You're all wrong.
00:35:28This wine is for me.
00:35:33This wine is for me.
00:35:35Did I hear that right?
00:35:36You said that this wine was given to you by Mr. Hawthorne?
00:35:39It's hilarious.
00:35:41Do you think you're Mrs. Hawthorne?
00:35:43Mrs. Hawthorne is Summer.
00:35:46Are you daydreaming, Elisa?
00:35:48Do you think you're some Cinderella who married a president?
00:35:51Elisa, are you jealous of me?
00:35:54Not only jealous of my family background and my job,
00:35:57now you're jealous of my relationship with Lucian
00:36:00and want to claim the wines that are given to me.
00:36:02Don't you know that even if you try your hardest,
00:36:05what's not meant for you will never, ever be yours?
00:36:10Oh, Summer, don't ruin your mood over such a rat in the gutter.
00:36:14She's just a clown.
00:36:15How can you be so confident that the wine is for Summer?
00:36:19When Summer and Mr. Hawthorne started dating,
00:36:23Elisa was somewhere picking up trash.
00:36:26All you ever do is talk.
00:36:28Why the hell would I lie about something like this?
00:36:30Who knows?
00:36:31After all, we don't understand how the poor thinks.
00:36:33Hey, waiter, tell us.
00:36:35Who does Mr. Hawthorne give this wines to?
00:36:39Yeah, tell us.
00:36:40Who does Mr. Hawthorne give this wine to?
00:36:43So that someone can start daydreaming.
00:36:46These wines were given to Mrs. Elisveo by Mr. Hawthorne.
00:36:55What? This wine is from Lucian to Elisa?
00:36:58There must have been a mistake. Check it again.
00:37:00How could Mr. Hawthorne possibly send wine to Elisa?
00:37:04Yes, this is indeed the wine that sent from Mr. Lucian to Elisa.
00:37:09How could this be?
00:37:11What makes Elisa so special that Lucian would treat her like this?
00:37:16Why are you all so silent now?
00:37:18You were so talkative and confident before.
00:37:21Is it because you're embarrassed?
00:37:24Okay, Amelia.
00:37:25Yeah, like I said, I don't need to lie.
00:37:27I don't need to lie.
00:37:28Mr. Hawthorne would never send wine to this bitch.
00:37:32Could it be?
00:37:33Wait.
00:37:34What now, Lavinia?
00:37:36Elisa, you really are desperate for attention, aren't you?
00:37:40After being exposed about the car keys,
00:37:43you've resorted to hiring actors to put on a show for us.
00:37:47Oh my god.
00:37:48Lavinia, you really are imaginative.
00:37:50She'd become a screenwriter.
00:37:51You really got a hit on your hands.
00:37:53What?
00:37:54Are you getting agitated because I've uncovered the truth
00:37:57and here I am stating the facts?
00:37:59How is that imagination?
00:38:02Lavinia, I think you've got a point.
00:38:05After all, lowly people are always so desperate for attention, right?
00:38:16Summer makes a valid point.
00:38:17Mr. Hawthorne and Elisa are from completely different worlds.
00:38:20How could he possibly send her wine?
00:38:22Go home and page your actors.
00:38:26Elisa, I think there's something you should know.
00:38:29If we hadn't gone to the same high school together,
00:38:32you wouldn't have any chance of sitting here with us,
00:38:35having a meal, let alone getting to know Mr. Hawthorne.
00:38:40You all have gone too far.
00:38:42This is supposed to be a class reunion party
00:38:44and you're all targeting Elisa.
00:38:46Elisa, what are you trying to do?
00:38:48What are we trying to do?
00:38:50She needs to know her place.
00:38:52Instead of deceiving us with lies again and again,
00:38:55how dare she do it and not admit it?
00:38:58Yes, Summer as the saying goes,
00:39:00ugly people make more trouble,
00:39:02but poor people make even more trouble.
00:39:06I couldn't care less what you think of me,
00:39:08but I didn't hire actors for this.
00:39:11We are all regular employees of the hotel.
00:39:14We cannot be hired as private actors.
00:39:16You must have misunderstood.
00:39:25Misunderstood?
00:39:27Elisa, you really are hopeless.
00:39:29You found some actors and got two bottles of fake wine
00:39:33thinking you could show off at the reunion party?
00:39:46This cheap wine is only good for making noise when he chatters.
00:39:49With this order from President Hawthorne,
00:39:55I don't have to worry about my performance
00:39:58for the rest of the month.
00:40:00I think I'm going to make Ms. Fair
00:40:02a VVVIP customer from now on.
00:40:07Hello?
00:40:08Oh good, Mr. Carlos.
00:40:10Ms. Fair was in trouble.
00:40:11What?
00:40:12I'm coming over.
00:40:14Damaging someone else's property?
00:40:16Lavinia, you have never been one to consider the consequences
00:40:18of doing whatever Summer tells you to do.
00:40:20How much can a big bottle of wine be worth?
00:40:24I'll pay her,
00:40:25and I'll pay for the remaining one,
00:40:27and I'll just buy them all
00:40:29so that she can smash them for fun.
00:40:34You're disgusting.
00:40:35We're ashamed to have you as a classmate.
00:40:38You don't deserve to be at our party.
00:40:40Security!
00:40:41Where's the security?
00:40:42I'm my sis.
00:40:43Well, we don't know who this woman is,
00:40:45and I don't know how she got in here.
00:40:47And I want her out of here.
00:40:50Well, this is Summer Hart,
00:40:52fiance of the President of Hawthorne's Group.
00:40:56And having her here,
00:40:57we don't want to have any trouble.
00:40:59I see.
00:41:01Now, what are you doing?
00:41:04What is going on here?
00:41:06Who gave you permission to expel my esteemed guest?
00:41:10Did you just call Elisa an esteemed guest?
00:41:17Yes, I did.
00:41:19In fact, Miss Vale is one of our VIP customers.
00:41:26That can't be possible.
00:41:28Her family went bankrupt years ago.
00:41:30She probably can't even afford to pay her rent.
00:41:33Let me correct myself.
00:41:35Not only is Miss Vale our esteemed guest,
00:41:39not only is she our VVVIP customer,
00:41:42but the wine was arranged to be sent by President Hawthorne to her.
00:41:48Does my work count?
00:41:49Does it have any weight around here?
00:41:51Mr. Carlos, there must be some mistake.
00:41:55Well, the wine was personally arranged
00:41:58by President Hawthorne's personal assistant, Ronan.
00:42:02How could there possibly be a mistake?
00:42:06Summer, how could Mr. Hawthorne be sending wine to Elisa?
00:42:10How am I supposed to know what Lucien is thinking?
00:42:14You said that you would pay me back tenfold.
00:42:16Forget the tenfold.
00:42:17Just pay me the original price.
00:42:21Is Lucien going to be angry with me for this?
00:42:24Whatever, let's just enjoy this moment.
00:42:26What's going on?
00:42:27Did President Hawthorne really send a line to Elisa?
00:42:30I have no idea.
00:42:31Maybe Summer is just lying
00:42:34and she's being presumptuous about Mr. Hawthorne?
00:42:37So Summer, what's the best way for you to pay me back for this?
00:42:44You should have seen the look on Summer's face
00:42:47when she tried to swipe her card.
00:42:48It was hilarious.
00:42:50Oh my gosh, today we finally showed her who's boss.
00:42:53I know, but I feel like everyone knows
00:42:55that Summer is Lucien's dream girl.
00:42:57When he finds out I, the placeholder wife,
00:43:00I'm totally getting the...
00:43:02Legally, you are Mr. Hawthorne's wife.
00:43:04You are literally the President's wife.
00:43:06You have the high ground.
00:43:07What are you so afraid of?
00:43:09Come on, let's go drink and celebrate.
00:43:11Do you actually want a drink right now?
00:43:13Yes.
00:43:14No.
00:43:15Yes.
00:43:16No.
00:43:17No.
00:43:18Okay, okay.
00:43:19It's my heart.
00:43:25Amelia, be honest with me, okay?
00:43:27What is it?
00:43:28I don't...
00:43:29I don't understand why Lucien wanted to marry me.
00:43:31I don't know, it's just...
00:43:33I'm starting to feel like maybe he...
00:43:36Like...
00:43:38Is he actually someone who...
00:43:39Elisa?
00:43:40I have something I have to attend to,
00:43:42so I'm going to be leaving now.
00:43:44What?
00:43:45Wait, no.
00:43:46Are you gossiping about me behind my back while you're drunk?
00:43:50Are you real?
00:43:51Or am I dreaming?
00:43:52Well, no, you're not dreaming.
00:43:53I'm actually here to take you home.
00:43:54Big gossip?
00:43:55No.
00:43:56I don't want to go home.
00:43:57I want to drink more.
00:43:58Is that not too much?
00:43:59You're going to have a headache tomorrow.
00:44:00Oh, who knew Mr. Hawthorne was so gentle and thoughtful?
00:44:01Come on.
00:44:02I can't walk.
00:44:03So I could just live here.
00:44:04Okay.
00:44:05Okay.
00:44:06I will carry you back then.
00:44:22Come on.
00:44:25Okay.
00:44:26Ready?
00:44:273, 2, 1.
00:44:28Okay.
00:44:29Here we go.
00:44:36Mr. Hawthorne, here I am, working overtime in the middle of the road, driving up this
00:44:42speed.
00:44:43I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry.
00:44:45Christian, why did you marry me?
00:44:50Christian, why did you marry me?
00:44:52Actually, I've been in love with you for 10 years, ever since I first saw you.
00:44:59Back then, the internal struggles in the Hawthorne family were severe, and my father was also.
00:45:07Christian, let your father rest in peace.
00:45:13You're all I've got now.
00:45:19Anyway, I didn't dare to show you even a sliver of my feelings for you.
00:45:24But the hatred between our parents made me hide my feelings for you.
00:45:27Could you give me a chance?
00:45:31Yeah.
00:45:32Well, I'll tell you this another time.
00:45:36I'll tell you this another time.
00:45:41Elisa always goes against me, making me embarrassed.
00:45:44She's the worst!
00:45:46I have an idea that doesn't require us to get involved and can make Elisa leave Mr. Hawthorne.
00:45:52Oh, what is it?
00:45:56What is it?
00:45:57Everyone knows that Mr. Hawthorne is devoted to his mother.
00:46:01If we tell her about Elisa seducing Mr. Hawthorne, then...
00:46:06Good idea.
00:46:08Mia is the matriarch of the Hawthorne family.
00:46:12She's very clever.
00:46:14But she never got involved in the family business, and she's lived in seclusion abroad for years.
00:46:19Even I haven't spoken to her.
00:46:22All we need to do is send an anonymous text message to Mrs. Hawthorne.
00:46:27Then we just need to wait for Elisa to be expelled from the Hawthorne family.
00:46:38I went through great lengths to get this, but I never contacted her because I didn't have a reason.
00:46:44Do it for me. When Elisa is dealt with, you will be rewarded.
00:46:53It's my pleasure to help you, Miss Hart.
00:46:56I just hope that when you become the president's wife, you won't forget me.
00:47:02Of course not.
00:47:03Mr. Hawthorne, you received an anonymous message on your phone.
00:47:16What does it say?
00:47:16It says there's a fix in your own Mr. Hawthorne.
00:47:20She turned him so much that he's been ignoring his Hawthorne group affairs.
00:47:28Book me a flight. I need to go back immediately.
00:47:33Oh my god.
00:47:36I'm going to be late again today.
00:47:37Ow! Ow! Ow! Ow!
00:47:38Oh my god. I'm so sorry.
00:47:41I'm so sorry.
00:47:42You need to pay for this.
00:47:45It was you that bumped into me, and it was just a light touch.
00:47:48I have no idea how you must have fallen like that.
00:47:49Are you trying to leave me?
00:47:51Because I don't know what's the matter with your generation.
00:47:53Having no respect for the elderly.
00:47:56But how did I...
00:47:59Okay, here, can I help you get up first?
00:48:01Yeah. Well, are you going to help me up?
00:48:07Are you okay?
00:48:08No, I am not okay. My leg really hurts.
00:48:10I don't think I'm going to be able to walk.
00:48:12You need to take responsibility for this.
00:48:14Ow!
00:48:14How can a young girl be so bad?
00:48:16She hits somebody, doesn't want to take responsibility.
00:48:19She looks good, but she's a young answer.
00:48:22No, no, no. The truth is...
00:48:24Never mind.
00:48:25Okay, uh...
00:48:27Ma'am, do you have your family's contact information?
00:48:30I can help you reach out to them.
00:48:31Family?
00:48:34Who are my family?
00:48:37I don't remember.
00:48:38You don't remember who your family is?
00:48:44Uh, I don't remember anything.
00:48:46What do I do?
00:48:47You don't remember where you live?
00:48:49I don't remember anything.
00:48:51Okay.
00:48:51What do I do?
00:48:52I...
00:48:53How about I take you to the hospital and then to a police station?
00:48:58No, no, no, no, no.
00:48:59I'm not going to a hospital or a police station.
00:49:02I don't trust anybody.
00:49:04Oh, no. I'm going to be late.
00:49:06But there's the weekly department meeting today.
00:49:08I can't take leave.
00:49:11Okay, uh...
00:49:12Ma'am, since you're not going anywhere,
00:49:14how about I take you to my company office?
00:49:17And then after work, I'll help you find your family.
00:49:19Fine.
00:49:20Guess you need to take responsibility for this.
00:49:23You cannot leave my spot.
00:49:25Okay.
00:49:26Okay.
00:49:27Ow, ow, ow, ow, ow!
00:49:29What?
00:49:30My mom's return home?
00:49:31Yes, Mr. Rothman.
00:49:32According to Matriarch Robinson's assistant,
00:49:34Matriarch Robinson received an anonymous text message about you
00:49:37and rushed back into the country.
00:49:38What was the text?
00:49:39It said,
00:49:40Mr. Hawthorne, you've been enchanted by a seductress.
00:49:42She's always had a temper.
00:49:44Okay.
00:49:45I'm going to attend the business meeting personally.
00:49:47Are you afraid the Matriarch Robinson will suddenly come to our company?
00:49:50I mean, yeah, unless there's some unexpected twist.
00:49:53I should probably be there.
00:49:53All right, Mr. Hawthorne.
00:49:54I'll arrange it right away.
00:49:55Mom, please don't scare off the wife I finally got.
00:50:05How did the matter about Matriarch Robinson go?
00:50:08Rest assured, Miss Hart.
00:50:09It's said that Matriarch Robinson was furious upon hearing the news
00:50:13and returned home immediately.
00:50:15Really?
00:50:17Then Alisa will be out of here soon.
00:50:19Yes.
00:50:21Congratulations in advance and it's hard to...
00:50:24Let's go.
00:50:25There's a weekly meeting of the business department
00:50:27and Lucian will be there personally.
00:50:29We can't afford to make a mistake.
00:50:32Um, Amelia's gone on a work trip,
00:50:34so you can sit in her spot while she's gone.
00:50:40If, if you get bored, you can just play on my phone.
00:50:42Okay, okay.
00:50:43Okay, and we have to keep our voices down because people are working.
00:50:46Okay, okay.
00:50:46I just want to know if I can say this.
00:50:48Everyone!
00:50:49The weekly meeting is about to begin?
00:50:52Alisa, why did you bring a cleaner to work?
00:50:54Alisa really treats the company as her home,
00:50:57being anyone she likes.
00:51:00Seriously, so filthy.
00:51:01It's disgusting just looking at them.
00:51:08Alisa, our entire department is filled up with work, and you?
00:51:13If we have to delay our work, are you going to take responsibility for that?
00:51:17Ms. Hart, this woman might have some trouble with her memory, so I'm only bringing her here temporarily.
00:51:23I was going to help her find her family after work, and if she could just sit here for the time
00:51:27being, I promise that she won't disturb anybody.
00:51:29Do you mean you brought this old hag in off the street, and she's also sick?
00:51:34I think you're crazy.
00:51:36Picking up an old hag like this, reeking of poverty, stinking up the whole office?
00:51:41What if you find her in a sewer?
00:51:43What if this old hag isn't just mentally ill, but also could infect us all with some disease?
00:51:49Yeah, Ms. Hart really think we should call Athena later to disinfect everywhere this lady's been.
00:51:54How could all of you be so cruel?
00:51:57Don't you all have families too?
00:51:59What if one of them had lost their memory and needed your help?
00:52:02This girl, she's interesting.
00:52:04I'm not the one who's sick.
00:52:05You're sick!
00:52:06Disgusting.
00:52:10Alisa, our company has rules and regulations.
00:52:13It's not a place for you to show your kindness.
00:52:16Get this old hag out of here now.
00:52:22Get this old hag out of here now.
00:52:24Ms. Hart, there is nothing in our company policy that discourages helping somebody in need.
00:52:29In fact, it encourages us to do so.
00:52:31Oh, there isn't.
00:52:32Well, now there is.
00:52:36Do you have a problem?
00:52:37Ms. Hart is a senior leader in our company.
00:52:39She can represent our president and now she just happened to add another company rule.
00:52:44Even if she asks security to drag you out, there's nothing you can do.
00:52:48Understand?
00:52:50How come the employees of the business department are like this?
00:52:54Lucian will be here soon from the business department.
00:52:57Alisa, you have two minutes.
00:52:59If you don't get this old hag out of here, I will fire you.
00:53:03You can go beg on the street with her.
00:53:05Maybe then you'll make more money than you do now.
00:53:07Dr. Summer, you are really pushing it.
00:53:11Tell me, what else can you do as I'd flaunt your authority?
00:53:14I'm reporting you to Mr. Hawthorne.
00:53:17As a low-level employee, you have contradicted me one too many times.
00:53:21And now you dare go see Mr. Hawthorne?
00:53:24You're fired.
00:53:27Two years.
00:53:28Two years away from this company.
00:53:30And I never thought that the business department of the Hawthorne group would decay into the state.
00:53:38Alisa will not be fired.
00:53:40You will.
00:53:44You will.
00:53:46Matthew, did I just hear this old hag say she's gonna fire us?
00:53:50She has a problem with her brain, that's why she's talking crazy.
00:53:53Ms. Hart is our president's wife-to-be. Firing her? Too ridiculous.
00:54:00Besides memory loss, is she also crazy?
00:54:02Why are they saying president's wife? Isn't it you?
00:54:08Are all of you quite finished? I can't believe how shallow you are.
00:54:11You are kind and righteous. Do you never use Lucian's identity to gain power?
00:54:16But you?
00:54:17Okay, ma'am, it's okay. I'm going to help you find your family. Let's go.
00:54:21Why do we need to leave? Why don't they leave first?
00:54:24Fine, since you're determined to cling to us.
00:54:27Matthew, get this old hag out of here right now.
00:54:31You've got guts.
00:54:40I'll see who dares to kick me out of here today.
00:54:43You actually dare to hit me?
00:54:53Ms. Hart?
00:54:55Elisa, this woman attacked my subordinate. I could have her sent to a mental hospital.
00:55:01You don't have the authority.
00:55:02Of course I do. She hit my subordinate. I can reasonably deduce she has some mental issues.
00:55:07How many times do I have to tell you? Yes, this woman is clearly sick, but naturally I'm going to
00:55:12find her family to let them handle it. If you and Matthew hadn't instigated this,
00:55:16none of this would have happened. This woman's actions can only be described as self-defense.
00:55:21Yeah, I think you're the one who's crazy. You don't respect the elderly. You're not qualified to
00:55:26be a leader. I don't know why your company's higher-ups even chose you.
00:55:32Oh, are you angry?
00:55:38Matthew, make these two disappear from my sight!
00:55:40Security!
00:55:41You're both of them out of Hawthorne Group.
00:55:46Wouldn't he hear?
00:55:47I can't drive you away. I tell you, I am...
00:55:51Summer, what are you doing?
00:55:55Summer, what are you doing?
00:55:59Oh my god, why does Lucian come to the business department every day?
00:56:03Fine. I guess we'll have another showdown.
00:56:06Explain.
00:56:07Well, it's like this. Elisa brought this woman in off the street, who smells terrible,
00:56:11and insisted on having her in the office, which was disrupting everyone's work,
00:56:15so I'm only thinking of the company.
00:56:17Yes, Mr. Hawthorne. What if she has some contagious disease and infects everyone?
00:56:22I take full responsibility for this incident. If the company wishes, I can hand in my resignation.
00:56:29Hawthorne Group is not an impersonal company. Elisa's done well. From today forward,
00:56:36they'll be promoted to Team Leader and oversee projects as a reward.
00:56:41Mr. Hawthorne, I'm... I'm afraid I'm not qualified for this position.
00:56:45I believe everyone here knows your abilities well.
00:56:50As for you, you can go to HR and they'll handle your resignation.
00:56:56He is the backbone of the business department. If you fire him, there'll be no elites left.
00:57:01Summer, you managed the business department into a mess. You're responsible for that.
00:57:04I promise to manage the business department better. This won't happen again.
00:57:10Matthew, why have you not apologized to this madame and Miss Bail yet?
00:57:17Matthew, why have you not apologized to this madame and Miss Bail yet?
00:57:21I'm sorry. Please forgive me. Why are you apologizing first? This one almost just put me into a mental hospital.
00:57:31You old hag. How dare you ask me to apologize.
00:57:35Miss Hart? Apologize.
00:57:38I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I can't hear you.
00:57:49I was wrong. I'm sorry.
00:57:51And you guys?
00:57:53I'm sorry.
00:57:56I'm sorry.
00:58:01Have I been misunderstanding him all this time? Could it be?
00:58:04Well, does the end of that matter? I'll take care of this lady and help her find her family.
00:58:11Lucian, why did you call me over? What if Elisa finds out?
00:58:18Well, what exactly are you trying to do?
00:58:19I want to test my daughter-in-law.
00:58:23Haven't you tested her enough today? She's great. You saw that.
00:58:31Oh, Lucian. You're quite loyal, aren't you?
00:58:36It's enough.
00:58:38Fine. Look, um, Elisa is a very good girl, but it seems she doesn't even know that you like her,
00:58:49nor does anyone else know that she's your wife. Why are you keeping this marriage so secretive?
00:58:56I don't know how to tell her. I'm afraid that if we make our relationship public,
00:59:01pressure will be too much for her.
00:59:02Lucian, when did you become such a coward?
00:59:06Look, if you like her, just confess boldly.
00:59:11You don't want to wait till Elisa falls for some other guy before you feel regret, do you?
00:59:17Regret what?
00:59:21Nothing. Please, come sit.
00:59:27Elisa, I'm sorry. I was deceptive earlier.
00:59:31I... I'm actually Lucian's mother.
00:59:35What?
00:59:39Please, let me explain.
00:59:41Um, a few days ago, I got an anonymous text saying that some woman was trying to seduce Lucian,
00:59:48and I got afraid that he might get tricked.
00:59:52Anyway, Elisa, can you please forgive me?
00:59:59Yes, Mrs. Hoffman, I understand you're just looking out for your son,
01:00:02but I am concerned that the person who sent that text must have had bad intentions.
01:00:06I have an idea of your son.
01:00:09Good.
01:00:10And Elisa, I heard that Lucian plans on taking you to a very fancy dinner tonight.
01:00:16Okay.
01:00:18There's actually something I want to talk to you about.
01:00:31Lucian, why aren't you eating?
01:00:32Yeah, of course.
01:00:41Well, Elisa, what do you want to ask me?
01:00:43If you want a divorce, it's not going to happen.
01:00:46Why would you think I want a divorce?
01:00:53Okay, I've been meaning to ask you.
01:00:58You've liked Summer for ten years.
01:00:59I mean, why would you marry me?
01:01:03Why protect me at every turn?
01:01:05Hold on.
01:01:07You think I've liked Summer for ten years?
01:01:09Judging by his reaction, he must have been caught off guard.
01:01:13Elisa, you're being too presumptuous.
01:01:16Seriously, why would I have liked her for ten years?
01:01:18Elisa, I've liked you for ten years.
01:01:22What?
01:01:24How could that possibly be?
01:01:27The first day we met, I felt for you.
01:01:30But because of the conflict between our parents, I chose to get them.
01:01:35I wanted to show you that I cared for you, but I couldn't.
01:01:41I was afraid that it would put you in danger.
01:01:44I'm really sorry, Elisa.
01:01:46All these years, I've suppressed my feelings for you.
01:01:51Fought tooth and nail to be the head of the Hawthorne family.
01:01:55And now it's taken me a decade to fully stand by you like this.
01:02:01So why now?
01:02:05And now it's taken me a decade to fully stand by you like this.
01:02:10So why now?
01:02:11I was afraid if I told you, you didn't like me, we wouldn't even be colleagues anymore.
01:02:17And so what's wrong?
01:02:20So when you sat next to me all those years ago, it wasn't because you didn't like your food?
01:02:27Hey, I don't really like this.
01:02:38Yeah, I'm really sorry I couldn't show you my feelings in the proper way.
01:02:43But then, why did you write Summer that love letter back then?
01:02:50What love letter?
01:02:52I only remember delivering a party invitation to her from my parents.
01:02:57Well, why are all your passwords Summer's birthday?
01:03:00You mean 0903?
01:03:02What does that have to do with Summer? I don't even know her birthday.
01:03:05So then what's 0903 to you?
01:03:07Elisa, 0903, September 3rd, is the day we first met.
01:03:14So it was, it was all just a misunderstanding?
01:03:19So it was, it was all just a misunderstanding?
01:03:22Listen, I love you.
01:03:26I know I tricked you into marrying me.
01:03:29Feelings for you are absolutely true.
01:03:32So, can you try to accept me?
01:03:37I know that our marriage started as a contract, but it feels real to me now.
01:03:43I love you.
01:03:45I want to be with you.
01:03:47I want to be with you now, and I want to be with you in what I want to do.
01:03:51I love you.
01:04:01You're finally mine.
01:04:05I'll be with yours.
01:04:06Hey, from now on, we're a true husband and wife.
01:04:20We don't have to keep our relationship secret in front of our colleagues anymore.
01:04:22Okay.
01:04:28Lucian, I...
01:04:30Elise, you...
01:04:31Summer, I'd like you to meet my wife.
01:04:34What?
01:04:35Elise and I have actually been married for a long time,
01:04:38so you don't have to send those divisive text messages to my mom anymore.
01:04:41We all like Elisa.
01:04:43So no matter how much you try to sow discord between us,
01:04:46it's never going to work.
01:04:47What text messages are I...
01:04:49I have the evidence, Summer.
01:04:54Now, considering the relationship between our families,
01:04:57I'm going to ask you to go ahead and submit your resignation from your team.
01:05:01As for everyone else,
01:05:03you all get off an hour early today.
01:05:05And you're invited to dinner with my wife.
01:05:09Yay!
01:05:17I think it's like it's the next night.
01:05:20Lies!
