Transcript

00:00:00This beautiful woman's name is Young One. Even though she's walking with her husband,

00:00:05her fearful demeanor draws attention. He leads her to the parking lot, and upon spotting a blind

00:00:10spot out of view of the security cameras, he immediately pulls her into it. He appears

00:00:15respectable on the surface, but in reality, he's an abuser. If anything displeases him,

00:00:21he beats her without hesitation. This time is no different. He doesn't spare her beautiful face

00:00:26or her lower abdomen. Who would know that this couple is the ideal image of a perfect family in

00:00:32Korea? The husband is the second son of the Jaisha Corporation, the largest electronics company in

00:00:38the country, and his wife is the famous actress Young One. But she doesn't love her glamorous

00:00:43husband at all. The one who holds her heart is our Woo Hayek. After being abused by her husband,

00:00:49Young One runs to Woo Hayek. Only he can soothe her physical and emotional pain. That night,

00:00:55the two share sweet moments together. Seeing this, do you wonder what their relationship

00:01:00really is? Let's rewind to a year earlier. Young One is driving when she accidentally

00:01:06splashes water on Woo Hayek. Panicked, she gets out of the car and apologizes. Upon seeing the

00:01:12beautiful woman before him, Woo Hayek's annoyance almost vanishes. He's about to leave, but overcome

00:01:18with guilt, she calls him back. They end up at a designer clothing store. She picks out an outfit worth

00:01:24millions of won for him, telling him not to be shy and to try it on. After changing, Woo Hayek goes to

00:01:31the cashier. The employee tells him that the woman has already paid and even gifted him a new pair of

00:01:36shoes. That evening, while Woo Hayek is out with his senior, attorney Yoo Ra, Young One unexpectedly

00:01:43appears. What a small world. Seeing her, the attorney cheerfully introduces them, Young One is my sister-in-law,

00:01:50and Woo Hayek is my junior. The two look at each other awkwardly but greet each other as if they've

00:01:56never met. Just as Young One is about to leave, her sister-in-law stops her. Since you've run into

00:02:02each other, let's have a few drinks. Take advantage of the fact that Min Ho, your husband, is away on

00:02:08business. During the gathering, a colleague notices Woo Hayek's designer clothes. He doesn't hide it and

00:02:15explains, while I was waiting for a ride, a woman passing by splashed dirty water on my clothes.

00:02:21She was rich, so she bought me a whole expensive outfit. I guess she thinks money can buy anything.

00:02:27He says this while pointedly looking at Young One. Seeing his sarcasm, she retaliates by nudging her

00:02:33friend, causing food to spill all over Woo Hayek's new clothes. She then pretends to apologize.

00:02:39At this point, everyone comments, you two are really meant to be. You must have known each other

00:02:45from that incident. It turns out that last year, Woo Hayek was the reporter who wrote an article about

00:02:51Young One, claiming her fame was due to the backing of a wealthy figure. Young One still holds a grudge

00:02:57about that. Unexpectedly, they meet again under these circumstances. She never wanted to see the

00:03:03jerk who smeared her name again, but fate seems to have other plans. When Young One goes to the

00:03:09courthouse to research details for a new movie script, she runs into him again. He's now a

00:03:14prosecutor. Passing by, he immediately recognizes her, despite her attempts to alter her appearance.

00:03:21At lunchtime, they end up at the same table. Young One seizes the opportunity to vent her anger.

00:03:27How dare you say I have a keyball backing me? Were you hiding under my bed? Do you know how hard I've

00:03:33worked to achieve my success? Young One chokes up. As she tries to compose herself, a criminal suddenly

00:03:39rushes in and takes her hostage. He demands that Woo Hayek immediately prepare a car for him.

00:03:46Not wanting to be indebted to him, Young One tries to free herself. She manages to break free,

00:03:51but gets hit and loses consciousness. Woo Hayek immediately jumps in. With a few swift moves,

00:03:58he subdues the criminal. Seeing Young One unconscious, he quickly carries her to the

00:04:03hospital. Worried, he waits until she wakes up. Young One thanks him and offers to treat him to

00:04:09a nice meal. It's clear that after this incident, they've started to shed their prejudices about each

00:04:15other. He smiles and says, Seeing you like this is unfamiliar. Maybe you should just yell at me like

00:04:21the other day. Unexpectedly, the seemingly stoic man has a playful side. His words lighten the mood

00:04:28between them considerably. At that moment, Young One's husband arrives. It's clear she's terrified

00:04:34of him. Woo Hayek, standing beside the bed, also senses something amiss. But her husband puts on a

00:04:40convincing act, solicitously asking about her well-being and thanking Woo Hayek for saving her.

00:04:46After Woo Hayek leaves, his facade crumbles. His fake persona is truly frightening.

00:04:52After being discharged from the hospital, Young One makes good on her promise to treat Woo Hayek to a

00:04:58meal. However, while cleaning her house, she accidentally knocks over a book under a table.

00:05:03Curious, she opens it to find a hidden storage device inside. The contents leave Young One aghast.

00:05:10She can't believe her husband is capable of such vile acts. As she reels from the shock,

00:05:15her husband stands watching from the doorway. He says nothing, but silently removes his leather

00:05:20belt. What follows is a brutal assault. Meanwhile, Woo Hayek waits for Young One at the restaurant.

00:05:27He calls her, but she's no longer in any condition to answer. After waiting a while longer, he leaves.

00:05:34Outside, he spots Young One's car and realizes she's inside, crying, but he chooses to leave.

00:05:40Distraught, Young One goes drinking alone. When she becomes too intoxicated,

00:05:44the staff calls Woo Hayek. He's found eating instant ramen at a convenience store.

00:05:50Since she's passed out, he has no choice but to get her a hotel room for the night.

00:05:55Intending to leave after she wakes up in the morning, she unexpectedly stirs half an hour later.

00:06:01Tears streaming down her face, she tells him about her life as a keyball's wife.

00:06:05The supposed life of luxury is, in reality, a living hell. Knowing her pain, Woo Hayek comforts her,

00:06:12and they spend the night together. From then on, fate binds them together. Had they not met a year

00:06:18earlier, perhaps fate would have orchestrated their encounter under different circumstances.

00:06:23Because, one way or another, Woo Hayek would still become entangled with the Jaysha Corporation.

00:06:28He's currently using the chairman's daughter, attorney Yoo Ra, to his advantage.

00:06:34Thanks to her introduction, he attends the family's celebratory party.

00:06:38This is also his opportunity to meet the chairman before the decision is made regarding his joining

00:06:43the company's legal team. The reason for this is Min Ho's recent appointment as the company's

00:06:48director. Soon, he'll become chairman. This worries Min Ho's mother and older brother.

00:06:53The mama's boy older brother is no match for the cunning Min Ho. But if Woo Hayek becomes his son-in-law,

00:07:00the situation might change. Woo Hayek's presence at the party creates an awkward atmosphere.

00:07:06The chairman asks everyone to leave so he can speak with him privately. He wants to know why Woo

00:07:12Hayek left his position as a prosecutor to become a corporate lawyer. There must be a specific reason.

00:07:18Woo Hayek readily offers his prepared explanation. He aspires to power and

00:07:23status, just like the chairman. Only at Jaysha can he achieve that. The chairman is already aware of

00:07:29his accomplishments. He's highly skilled and well-connected. Therefore, joining Jaysha would

00:07:35undoubtedly bring significant value. The next morning, Woo Hayek goes to the airport to pick up

00:07:41an important person. It's Ricky, the key witness in his father's case years ago. He was the chairman's

00:07:47former driver and knows everything that happened to his father. But as they reach the parking lot,

00:07:52while Woo Hayek is on the phone, Ricky is abducted. He quickly gives chase, but the kidnapper is clever,

00:07:59forcing his car to crash into an obstacle. Dazed, Woo Hayek stumbles out of the car,

00:08:05only to be punched. He's left helpless as the kidnapper takes both the witness and his luggage.

00:08:11At this time, the chairman and Min Ho are on a helicopter for a business trip. Seeing his father cough,

00:08:17Min Ho pours him a cup of hot tea prepared by a servant. Once settled, the helicopter takes off.

00:08:24During the flight, the pilot suddenly experiences discomfort in his throat. The chairman, noticing

00:08:29this, instructs his assistant to give him a cup of the same tea. But as soon as he drinks it,

00:08:34the pilot struggles to breathe and collapses. The co-pilot, unable to control the situation,

00:08:40loses control of the helicopter, which hits a signal tower and plunges into the Han River.

00:08:46This was a nationwide tragedy. The chairman was severely injured and hospitalized. Min Ho was

00:08:52missing, nowhere to be found, and the rest of the passengers didn't survive. Woo Hayek was devastated

00:08:58when he heard the news. He couldn't let the chairman die like this. His father's case was still

00:09:03unresolved, so he rushed to the hospital. Thanks to his connection with Yoo Ra, he was allowed in.

00:09:10The chairman's wife's younger brother said the police gave Min Ho a very slim chance of survival.

00:09:15Upon hearing this, the chairman's wife fainted, unable to cope. Her husband was in critical condition,

00:09:22his life hanging in the balance. Her son was missing without a trace. How could she possibly overcome

00:09:28this shock? When the chairman's wife regained consciousness, she asked everyone to leave the room.

00:09:33She said she was fine and wanted to be alone. It was then that her true colors were revealed.

00:09:40Her brother rushed back into the room when he heard her crying, but they weren't tears of sorrow.

00:09:45She was crying tears of joy. Finally, this day had arrived. Call an emergency shareholders meeting.

00:09:52We must seize this opportunity to take control. The doctors finished the surgery. A rib had pierced the

00:09:58chairman's liver, damaging 40% of it. Everyone needed to prepare for the worst.

00:10:03The eldest son, Soo Ho, felt a flicker of joy at the news. Only the daughter was genuinely worried

00:10:10about her father. Woo Hayek, without even taking a break from his current case, was assigned to handle

00:10:16the accident. He had to do everything in his power to prevent it from becoming a major scandal.

00:10:22The chairman's wife was getting ready to go to the shareholders' meeting when the door suddenly opened,

00:10:27stopping her in her tracks. Min Ho, in the flesh, stood before her. He smirked.

00:10:33Surprised, mother? Didn't expect me to return safe and sound, did you?

00:10:38Seeing her husband's return, Yong Won's grief felt like a descent into hell.

00:10:43She quickly walked to the stairwell and sat down, weeping.

00:10:47Woo Hayek witnessed this. They loved each other, but couldn't be together. He could only offer her

00:10:52comfort in times like these. Seeing the woman he loved in tears, he didn't hesitate to kiss her.

00:10:58This tender moment was witnessed by Min Ho from inside the room. How interesting.

00:11:04Once Yong Won returned, he decisively pulled her toward the reporters.

00:11:09Seeing him, everyone buzzed with excitement and rushed forward.

00:11:12Weren't you missing? How are you here?

00:11:15Min Ho put on a sorrowful face and began to act.

00:11:18He recounted the cause of the incident. It turned out that before the helicopter took off,

00:11:24the chairman received a call from the Blue House. They wanted a representative from the corporation

00:11:29to discuss plans for welcoming a high-level international delegation. So, he had asked

00:11:34his son to stay behind and handle the matter. That's how he escaped the disaster. It was as if fate

00:11:40had spared him. Now, if nothing else happened, he would naturally become the chairman of the corporation.

00:11:46Then, he would slowly deal with his wife's lover. Just you wait.

00:11:51His older brother, upon learning of Min Ho's return, worriedly went to find their mother.

00:11:56But their mother was suffering even more than he was. In the end, Min Ho presided over the

00:12:02shareholders' meeting. If he had orchestrated this whole thing, it was a masterful stroke.

00:12:07At the end of the day, Min Ho went to the hospital to pick up his wife.

00:12:11Now was the time for her to face his wrath. He led her to the parking lot. But instead

00:12:17of putting her in the car, he dragged her to a corner to vent his anger. Min Ho's affectionate

00:12:22facade was all an act. But even if she wanted to escape him, she couldn't. A perfectionist

00:12:28like Min Ho wouldn't allow it. So, Young Won could only grit her teeth and endure. She sought

00:12:34solace in Woo Hayek's arms. After a passionate interlude, Young Won got in her car and returned

00:12:40home. However, her sister-in-law noticed her unusual behavior. She was standing there smoking,

00:12:47checking her watch. It was exactly 4M. At the Jashin Corporation, two security guards on patrol

00:12:53noticed the chairman's office door was ajar. This was unusual. They both went in to investigate.

00:12:59A putrid smell hit them, signaling something was wrong. As they fumbled around in the darkness,

00:13:06a figure suddenly rushed out, knocking them to the ground. When they looked up, all they

00:13:11saw was crimson red. Ahead of them lay a body, motionless on the floor. It was none other

00:13:17than Min Ho. This time, he had truly logged out. Not entirely accurately, the younger brother

00:13:23told the chairman's wife that Min Ho had been stabbed in his office. Simultaneously, Young Won

00:13:29and Woo Hayek also received the news. Everyone was shocked. The chairman's wife went upstairs to

00:13:35inform her eldest son. But when she entered his room, she didn't find him, only a pile of pills

00:13:41on the table. She had a bad feeling. Running into the bathroom, she found her wayward son submerged

00:13:47in the bathtub. She frantically called for help. It was fortunate she went in when she did.

00:13:52Otherwise, he would have lost his life. Woo Hayek was also called in to investigate Min Ho's death.

00:14:00When he arrived at the crime scene, he discovered the room had no security cameras.

00:14:04The external camera footage from 2am to 4am had also been stolen. This was hard to believe,

00:14:10especially in such a large corporation. Woo Hayek continued his investigation,

00:14:15going to the Gresson family home. There, the eldest daughter-in-law mentioned that Min Ho and

00:14:21Young Won had a strained relationship. Furthermore, Young Won had returned home very late that night,

00:14:26around 4am. Back at the office, a colleague showed Woo Hayek the security footage of Min Ho

00:14:32and Young Won in the hospital parking lot. Woo Hayek quickly thought of retrieving the car's black box,

00:14:38as it might have captured what happened in that secluded corner. Based on the video,

00:14:43it was highly likely that Young Won was the one who attacked her husband. Now, the investigation would

00:14:49focus on her. Young Won was summoned to the interrogation room. Woo Hayek was the interrogator.

00:14:55He presented the video of Min Ho assaulting her in the parking lot and demanded an explanation.

00:15:01Why were you being hit? Young Won replied, Min Ho always hit me without reason. I was always the

00:15:07victim in this relationship. But Woo Hayek didn't ask about the beating. He asked,

00:15:13Where did you go after you were hit? This question stunned Young Won. That night, after being abused

00:15:19by Min Ho, she had gone to see Woo Hayek. After their intimate encounter, she got in her car and

00:15:25drove home. On the way, she received a call from Min Ho. He demanded she come to his office to finalize

00:15:32their divorce papers. So, she immediately went there. However, upon arrival, he continued to torment

00:15:38and torture her. He said he would never divorce her. Now, everything was in his hands, including

00:15:44her. Unable to bear his brutality, she fought back. Unexpectedly, he overpowered her. She could

00:15:51only struggle to break free. If she revealed all of this, she would surely be detained immediately.

00:15:57But she kept it to herself. Woo Hayek was also trying to protect her. He continued to question her

00:16:03about the time she returned home. Young Won confidently answered, I got home at 2M.

00:16:09Just as he was about to ask another question, the Gene Corporation's legal team entered.

00:16:14They said Young Won didn't need to answer any further questions. Then, they bailed her out.

00:16:20Exhausted, Young Won returned home. She glanced at a glamorous dress hanging in her closet.

00:16:26Suddenly, memories of the past flooded back. Before marrying Min Ho, she had been a famous actress.

00:16:32At a film awards ceremony, she won Best Actress and became the center of attention.

00:16:38The director took the opportunity to introduce her to influential figures in the industry.

00:16:43When she became too tired, she slipped out to rest on the stairs.

00:16:47Unexpectedly, it was there that she met her future tycoon husband.

00:16:52He pretended to be just a casual observer. He had also just returned from abroad,

00:16:57so he didn't know who she was.

00:16:58Seeing this, Young Won felt at ease and invited him to go out for some fun.

00:17:04They went out together and had a great time, feeling a genuine connection, like true friends.

00:17:09When the two arrived at the restaurant, Woo Hayek happened to be there as well.

00:17:14At that time, he was working as a reporter.

00:17:17Upon seeing Min Ho, he immediately recognized him as the son of the chairman of the Jisha Corporation.

00:17:22As for the girl with him, Woo Hayek's friend informed him that she was a currently popular actress.

00:17:29Intrigued by this information, Woo Hayek quickly pulled his friend away.

00:17:33Only then did Young Won feel comfortable enough to sit and talk with Min Ho.

00:17:38When it was time to part, Min Ho said,

00:17:40Let's meet again tomorrow.

00:17:42He then proceeded to make a solicitous gesture towards her.

00:17:46Woo Hayek captured it all.

00:17:47He planned to use it to attack the Jisha Corporation.

00:17:51But of course, Young Won would also be hurt by this.

00:17:54Thanks to him, she would end up marrying the most eligible bachelor in South Korea.

00:17:59The Min Ho case.

00:18:01After the forensic analysis, the conclusion was that Min Ho had been killed with a box cutter.

00:18:06Based on the wounds, they judged that this was not something a woman could have done.

00:18:11Furthermore, the tycoon's high-rise building was heavily guarded,

00:18:14making it very difficult for an outsider to sneak in and commit the crime.

00:18:19Woo Hayek investigated all the family members.

00:18:22The madam maintained a calm facade, showing no reaction.

00:18:26As for Su Ho, the puppet, he remained as arrogant as ever,

00:18:29telling Woo Hayek to know his place.

00:18:32Very quickly, the madam announced Min Ho's funeral.

00:18:35This was a funeral to announce his death to the entire nation.

00:18:39Several police officers, under the guise of mourners, attended the funeral.

00:18:43When Su Ho saw them, he showed contempt.

00:18:47At that moment, a police officer declared,

00:18:50You are under arrest on suspicion of involvement in the death of Min Ho.

00:18:54The man remained defiant.

00:18:56You're arresting me without evidence.

00:18:59Just then, Woo Hayek entered.

00:19:01We found Su Ho's skin under Min Ho's fingernails.

00:19:05This news shocked everyone present.

00:19:07Su Ho, panicked, shoved the officer and ran.

00:19:11Woo Hayek immediately gave chase.

00:19:13Just as Su Ho got into his car, Woo Hayek pulled him out.

00:19:17And so, the arrogant man was taken in for questioning.

00:19:21The secret of Min Ho's birth.

00:19:23Upon hearing the news, the madam immediately went to see Woo Hayek's superior.

00:19:28She demanded to see her son.

00:19:30She whispered to Su Ho.

00:19:31You must remain absolutely silent.

00:19:34Don't reveal anything.

00:19:35I will take care of everything.

00:19:38Woo Hayek was not satisfied.

00:19:40He opened and studied the files of each member of the family.

00:19:43When he looked at the blood types, he discovered a big secret.

00:19:47The next day, he confronted Su Ho with this information.

00:19:51It turned out that Min Ho was not the madam's biological son, but the chairman's illegitimate

00:19:56child.

00:19:57Woo Hayek asked.

00:19:58Did you kill Min Ho because you knew he wasn't your real brother and were afraid he would take

00:20:03over the company?

00:20:05Woo Hayek's words ignited Su Ho's rage.

00:20:08Despite his lawyer's attempts to stop him, he poured out all his resentment towards Min Ho.

00:20:13Ever since Min Ho had moved in, everything in the house had become gloomy.

00:20:18He was a devil inside.

00:20:20He was always quiet, but his every action was unpredictable.

00:20:24Woo Hayek took the opportunity to probe further.

00:20:27Is that why you were afraid and eliminated him?

00:20:30But Su Ho calmly replied.

00:20:33It's true that Min Ho and I had a scuffle the night he died, but it was just a minor argument.

00:20:38It wasn't serious enough for me to kill my brother.

00:20:41However, the plane crash, could Su Ho's words be trusted, or was it just a story he made

00:20:47up to deceive Woo Hayek?

00:20:49The team investigating the plane crash found a crucial clue.

00:20:53It was a small bottle of eyedrops.

00:20:55Inside was a solution that caused an allergic reaction to an ingredient in the chairman's

00:21:00tea.

00:21:01This had led to the heart attack that killed the pilot instantly.

00:21:05Moreover, the pilot's wife's fingerprints were found on the helicopter.

00:21:09Clearly, something was wrong.

00:21:10Woo Hayek immediately ordered a search for the woman, but she had already been tipped

00:21:15off.

00:21:16Without hesitation, she got into her car and fled.

00:21:20Unexpectedly, a mysterious figure was waiting for her.

00:21:23So, when the police arrived, she had already disappeared.

00:21:27Manipulated truth?

00:21:29The investigation team immediately held an emergency meeting.

00:21:33The team in charge of the plane crash investigation reported that the pilot's wife was a shopaholic,

00:21:38deeply in debt.

00:21:39After her husband's death, she received a hefty insurance payout.

00:21:44This could very well be the motive for her to cooperate with someone else to carry out

00:21:48the act.

00:21:49As for the Min Ho investigation, they obtained footage of the fight between the two brothers

00:21:54that night.

00:21:55It was likely that during the scuffle, Su Ho's skin had gotten modged under Min Ho's fingernails.

00:22:00And so, using the corporation's influence, Su Ho was released.

00:22:06In front of the press, he once again declared.

00:22:09I have nothing to do with my brother's death.

00:22:12Yong Won had also moved out.

00:22:14This was something she had longed for.

00:22:16Now, she was free to do what she wanted, which was to be with the man she loved.

00:22:20Her abusive husband could no longer control her.

00:22:23The two enjoyed spending time together.

00:22:26While visiting a town, Yong Won said she wanted to see a close friend, but she left her phone

00:22:31in Woo Hayek's car.

00:22:33Just then, he received a call from a gynecology clinic.

00:22:36Woo Hayek quickly went there, claiming to be a family member of the expectant mother.

00:22:41Upon entering, he realized Yong Won was having a routine checkup.

00:22:44He was even more surprised to learn she was three months pregnant.

00:22:49He hesitated about whether to ask her about it, but ultimately kept it to himself.

00:22:54Meanwhile, the madam had begun a shareholders' meeting to prepare for the election of a new

00:22:58chairman.

00:22:59The corporation was currently facing instability due to a series of incidents involving senior

00:23:04executives.

00:23:06Therefore, only Su Ho was qualified to fill the vacant chairman position.

00:23:10At this point, a shareholder spoke up.

00:23:12I heard the chairman's will has disappeared.

00:23:16If he doesn't recover, it's not certain that all the assets will belong to Su Ho.

00:23:20This statement caused Su Ho to lose control.

00:23:23He lunged at the shareholder.

00:23:25The madam, having anticipated this, immediately called for a lawyer to announce the will.

00:23:30In the event of the chairman's death or serious illness, all his assets would be transferred

00:23:35to his eldest son, Su Ho.

00:23:38No one could argue further.

00:23:39The written document was crystal clear.

00:23:41Su Ho assumed his father truly loved him and had therefore left all his assets to him.

00:23:47But the madam's next words left him bewildered.

00:23:50She demanded that her younger son find the missing original will.

00:23:54If it gets out, it will be very dangerous.

00:23:57It turned out the will just presented to the shareholders was a forgery.

00:24:01Only Su Ho was unaware.

00:24:03Furthermore, the madam blamed him.

00:24:05She claimed that even with Min Ho alive, she would have secured the chairmanship for him.

00:24:10Su Ho couldn't believe that even his mother didn't believe in his innocence.

00:24:14He left, heartbroken and despairing.

00:24:17At the door, he ran into his younger sister, Yu Ra.

00:24:20She had come at their mother's behest.

00:24:23It turned out the madam wanted her to return to work at the corporation.

00:24:27You're a lawyer, and you let your brother be falsely accused like this?

00:24:30She pressured Yu Ra, saying that Wu Hayek, disregarding their relationship, was continuing to investigate Su Ho.

00:24:38This worried Yu Ra.

00:24:40She knew Wu Hayek was impartial, but the suspect was her brother.

00:24:44She didn't know what to do.

00:24:46Wu Hayek was still investigating the disappearance of Ricky, the witness in his father's case years ago.

00:24:51Unexpectedly, today he uncovered a valuable clue.

00:24:55The detective investigating Min Ho's case told him about Min Ho's secretary.

00:25:00This secretary had disappeared the same day Min Ho died.

00:25:04Upon receiving information about the secretary, Wu Hayek remembered him as the person who had kidnapped Ricky.

00:25:10He immediately drove to the secretary's house to investigate.

00:25:14Ricky was there at that moment, but the secretary had left.

00:25:17He called the secretary, demanding he fulfill their previous agreement.

00:25:21He would hand over the incriminating evidence, and the other party would hand over the money.

00:25:26But the secretary refused.

00:25:28He's no longer under anyone's thumb.

00:25:31Surprisingly, when Wu Hayek arrived, he ran into the secretary leaving.

00:25:35A chase ensued.

00:25:37However, by a stroke of luck, the secretary escaped.

00:25:40Wu Hayek missed his opportunity.

00:25:42Wu Hayek returned and ordered Su Ho's arrest and a search of his house.

00:25:48Su Ho was now fed up with his family.

00:25:50The wealthy clan suffocated him.

00:25:52The madam, despite her influence, was outmaneuvered by Wu Hayek.

00:25:57She did nothing but return to her room.

00:25:59Meanwhile, the police discovered a hidden box.

00:26:02Inside was a suspicious-looking storage device.

00:26:05The eldest daughter-in-law, witnessing this, felt uneasy.

00:26:09At the investigation office, Wu Hayek presented evidence suggesting Su Ho was his brother's killer.

00:26:16Su Ho's footprints were found at the crime scene.

00:26:19These were from a pair of shoes he had personally signed for upon purchase.

00:26:23But interestingly, the shoes were found in the possession of the house security guard.

00:26:28It turned out that the morning after the murder, Su Ho had ordered someone to destroy the evidence,

00:26:33but the guard had seen him.

00:26:35Finding the shoes new and stylish, the guard had taken them.

00:26:38The police had photographed him wearing the shoes while on duty.

00:26:42At this point, it seemed certain that Su Ho was involved.

00:26:46However, he appeared to be out of sorts, possibly due to withdrawal symptoms.

00:26:51He was not in a fit state of mind to continue the interrogation.

00:26:55Seeing this, Wu Hayek excused himself for a break.

00:26:58The eldest daughter-in-law, likely aware that the storage device contained something detrimental to her,

00:27:04sought out her mother-in-law to retrieve it.

00:27:06She claimed it held evidence implicating Su Ho in his younger brother's death.

00:27:11If you don't act quickly, you might lose your son, she warned.

00:27:15The madam immediately dispatched someone to the prosecutor's office to retrieve the device.

00:27:20Wu Hayek was still there, having taken a break to wash his face due to exhaustion.

00:27:25During this time, a thief slipped in, stealing his prosecutor's badge

00:27:29and moving the list of evidence seized from Su Ho's house to a different location.

00:27:35Upon returning, Wu Hayek sensed something amiss, as if the room had been searched.

00:27:40Panic set in, and he rushed to the storage room.

00:27:43Just then, the thief emerged with the device and fled.

00:27:46The two men collided.

00:27:48The thief bolted, and Wu Hayek gave chase.

00:27:51Outside, they struggled, but Wu Hayek was overpowered.

00:27:55A police car approached, prompting the thief to escape.

00:27:59However, as fate would have it, the device he'd stolen was dropped during the scuffle,

00:28:03landing in Wu Hayek's possession.

00:28:06Unbelievably, Min Ho's husband was having an affair with his sister-in-law, right under their noses.

00:28:12Furious, Wu Hayek confronted Su Ho, demanding,

00:28:15Did you attack Min Ho because you knew about your wife's affair?

00:28:19Su Ho merely smirked in response, remaining silent.

00:28:23Later, escorted back to his cell, Su Ho watched the falling snow and lost control.

00:28:28He broke free from the guards, ran to the balcony, and jumped.

00:28:33Meanwhile, Wu Hayek consoled a distraught young one,

00:28:36offering comfort and encouraging her to start anew,

00:28:39knowing he couldn't alleviate her suffering.

00:28:41Upon hearing about Su Ho, Wu Hayek sought out the eldest daughter-in-law.

00:28:46When presented with a storage device, her surprise was evident.

00:28:50Realizing he'd seen its contents, she confessed.

00:28:53Min Ho is a master manipulator.

00:28:56He claimed to love only me, but he was after the company.

00:28:59He recorded our intimate moments to blackmail me into handing over my shares.

00:29:04I don't know how Su Ho found out.

00:29:06This entire family is despicable.

00:29:08Fearing the contents would further hurt young one, Wu Hayek destroyed the device.

00:29:14The madam, grief-stricken by her son's suicide, vowed to make Wu Hayek pay.

00:29:19Yu Ra, unable to bear further turmoil,

00:29:22resigned from her law firm to take over the company's legal department.

00:29:26On her first day, all existing lawyers were dismissed.

00:29:30A meeting with her uncle, a close confidante of the madam,

00:29:33alerted her to Hayek's predicament.

00:29:35She immediately drove to her mother.

00:29:37Meanwhile, Wu Hayek was being attacked by the madam's men.

00:29:41As a prosecutor, he initially held his own,

00:29:44but eventually succumbed to the relentless assault, losing consciousness.

00:29:49Yu Ra revealed to her mother the reason for the chairman's meeting with Wu Hayek at the party.

00:29:54He wanted him to revise his will.

00:29:56If Wu Hayek dies, the will disappears.

00:29:59If it resurfaces later, who knows what will happen?

00:30:01Her words saved Wu Hayek in the nick of time.

00:30:05The assassin, about to deliver the final blow, received a call from the madam and stopped.

00:30:11Wu Hayek's life was spared.

00:30:13While driving, Yu Ra received a call informing her that Wu Hayek was hospitalized.

00:30:19She rushed to his side.

00:30:21Seeing her lover's bruised and battered face, Young Won wept silently.

00:30:25Yu Ra arrived, witnessing the scene with a pang of disappointment.

00:30:29She hadn't realized the depth of their relationship.

00:30:32It dawned on her that they'd always feigned unfamiliarity, though their affection was long-standing.

00:30:38She'd been foolishly oblivious.

00:30:40She had trusted them both implicitly, only to be deceived.

00:30:44Unbeknownst to her, Yu Ra's junior colleagues, after investigating,

00:30:48revealed that Min Ho and Su Ho had a fight the night before Min Ho's death.

00:30:53Su Ho's whereabouts after the altercation were unknown.

00:30:56The autopsy placed Min Ho's time of death around 2am.

00:31:00According to the eldest daughter-in-law, Su Ho was seen at home early that morning.

00:31:05Yu Ra suddenly recalled the daughter-in-law mentioning Young Won,

00:31:09claiming to have seen her sister-in-law return home at 4am.

00:31:13This was a valuable lead.

00:31:14Yu Ra immediately instructed her team to investigate Young Won's activities that day,

00:31:19determined to uncover the truth, both for her brother and her father.

00:31:23That morning, Young Won visited Wu Hayek in the hospital.

00:31:27Amidst their lighthearted banter, a noise outside alerted Wu Hayek.

00:31:31The madam had arrived, claiming she only wanted to check on him and hoped such an incident wouldn't

00:31:36recur.

00:31:38If you knew your place, she warned, life would be easier.

00:31:42Undeterred, Wu Hayek insisted on pursuing the truth.

00:31:45He then received troubling news.

00:31:47His colleagues had traced Min Ho's call logs.

00:31:50The last call was to Young Won, 10 minutes before his death.

00:31:55They also placed her near the company headquarters around that time.

00:31:58Puzzlingly, Young Won claimed to be home at 2am.

00:32:01A clear contradiction.

00:32:03This made Young Won a suspect.

00:32:05The two women encountered each other at the hospital.

00:32:08Seeing Young Won, Yu Ra, despite knowing the reason, inquired about her presence.

00:32:13Young Won simply stated she was visiting a friend.

00:32:16Aware that Young Won was concealing their relationship, Yu Ra, eager for a good show, invited her to

00:32:22visit Wu Hayek together.

00:32:24We're acquaintances, after all, aren't we?

00:32:26She remarked.

00:32:28Upon entering, Wu Hayek feigned surprise at Young Won's presence.

00:32:32Their secret was out.

00:32:33The awkwardness was palpable, almost comical.

00:32:37Yu Ra questioned Wu Hayek about her father's will, wanting to know if he possessed it.

00:32:41Wu Hayek admitted to only having seen it, not keeping it.

00:32:46Yu Ra then turned to Young Won, pointedly asking,

00:32:49You returned home at 4am.

00:32:51What were you doing, and where were you before then?

00:32:54Young Won maintained her 2am arrival, claiming she was simply taking a walk alone.

00:32:59Yu Ra chuckled, knowing it was a lie.

00:33:02A sudden phone call interrupted the conversation.

00:33:05Yu Ra answered and abruptly left.

00:33:07Wu Hayek seized the opportunity, urging Young Won to tell him the truth, as others wouldn't

00:33:12be as understanding.

00:33:14They were already suspicious.

00:33:16Just tell me what happened that day, he pleaded, and I promise to protect you.

00:33:21Young Won remained silent, lacking the courage to confess.

00:33:25The chairman had regained consciousness.

00:33:27Yu Ra rushed to the hospital, but was barred entry.

00:33:30Only the madam was allowed to visit.

00:33:32The chairman requested, call Min Ho, and then convene a shareholders' meeting.

00:33:38The madam laughed, relishing her husband's ignorance of their son's death.

00:33:43The chairman's face fell.

00:33:44That can't be, absolutely not.

00:33:47Determined to keep him isolated, the madam ordered everyone, including her own daughter,

00:33:52away from his room.

00:33:54Returning home, Wu Hayek found a letter from Young Won, bidding him farewell and hoping to

00:33:59spare them both further pain.

00:34:00Fearing the worst, he raced to her apartment, only to find her with Min Ho's secretary, who

00:34:06had been missing.

00:34:08Before he could comprehend the situation, they left together.

00:34:11It turned out Young Won and the secretary had made a deal.

00:34:15Flashback to that fateful day.

00:34:17Young Won, attempting to escape her abusive husband, was caught by the secretary.

00:34:22During their drive back, the secretary received a call from the hospital.

00:34:25His wife needed emergency surgery.

00:34:28As an illegal immigrant, finding a donor was difficult.

00:34:32Young Won offered her help in exchange for permanent freedom from Min Ho.

00:34:36The secretary, seeking assurance of her commitment, sought her out.

00:34:40Just stick to the agreement, he stated, and everything will remain buried forever.

00:34:45After the two parted ways, Wu Hayek appeared.

00:34:49He questioned Young Won about her meeting with the secretary.

00:34:52What did you two meet about?

00:34:54Young Won was on her way home.

00:34:56She hadn't told him about her pregnancy yet.

00:34:59How could a pregnant woman perform surgery?

00:35:01She didn't want to keep it a secret.

00:35:03So she decided to go back and tell the secretary.

00:35:05Unexpectedly, Wu Hayek was also there.

00:35:09But the secretary remained calm, he said.

00:35:12Are you afraid Young Won is the culprit?

00:35:14If you can't handle it, just pretend you don't know anything.

00:35:18With that, he left Wu Hayek standing there.

00:35:21Meanwhile, at the hospital, the chairman had regained consciousness.

00:35:25He immediately wanted to see Wu Hayek.

00:35:28By the time his wife arrived, it was too late.

00:35:30Wu Hayek had beaten her to it.

00:35:32Now, he would soon know the truth about what happened that day.

00:35:37According to Su Ho's account, Min Ho was his drug supplier.

00:35:41That night, suffering from withdrawal, Su Ho went to his younger brother for drugs.

00:35:46Unexpectedly, Min Ho refused.

00:35:48He even beat his older brother in front of everyone.

00:35:51Su Ho had no choice but to return home.

00:35:54But then he received a call, telling him to go to the chairman's office.

00:35:58When he arrived, he found his younger brother lying motionless on the floor.

00:36:02Su Ho was stunned.

00:36:04He rushed to Min Ho's side, weeping.

00:36:06But when he heard the security guards approaching, he could only hide.

00:36:10Then, he seized the opportunity to escape.

00:36:13Wu Hayek didn't believe him.

00:36:15He thought Su Ho was lying.

00:36:17But what Su Ho said next suggested he truly wasn't the killer.

00:36:21To Su Ho, Min Ho was the person he cherished most.

00:36:25Unbelievable, right?

00:36:27But ever since they were young, Min Ho had been the one who understood him best.

00:36:32He was always willing to cover for him, no matter what.

00:36:35Even when he knew he was wrongly accused by his older brother, his younger brother never uttered a word.

00:36:41Even after Min Ho went abroad to study, they remained close.

00:36:45Whenever Su Ho needed advice, he would turn to his younger brother.

00:36:48Even when he learned that his younger brother was having an affair with his wife, Su Ho didn't care.

00:36:55The marriage was just a business arrangement.

00:36:57There were no real feelings involved.

00:37:00Su Ho insisted.

00:37:01I'm not the one who killed Min Ho.

00:37:04Faced with Su Ho's confession, Wu Hayek's head spun.

00:37:08Looking at him, he didn't seem like a liar.

00:37:10If Su Ho wasn't the killer, then who was the real culprit?

00:37:14Upon learning that the chairman had regained consciousness, Wu Hayek rushed to the hospital.

00:37:19So, the old man was still alive to witness his revenge.

00:37:22While in the hospital room, he told the chairman about Min Ho's death.

00:37:26The chairman, grief-stricken, ordered him to find the murderer at all costs.

00:37:31He vowed to make the perpetrator descend into hell for atonement, to blow them to smithereens.

00:37:37Upon hearing these words, Wu Hayek thought of his own parents.

00:37:41Who gave you the right to take someone's life like that?

00:37:43Can you just make people disappear at will?

00:37:46You did the same to Song Hun's father, didn't you?

00:37:49You were the one who acted alongside my father back then, weren't you?

00:37:52At this, the chairman was so shocked that he was speechless.

00:37:57He seemed to be deeply affected, only able to utter fragmented sentences.

00:38:01Song Hun, I'm sorry.

00:38:03Because I was so scared.

00:38:05Min Ho's death had deeply wounded the chairman.

00:38:08His mental state was no longer stable.

00:38:11At the trial, Yu Ra defended her brother.

00:38:14She argued that the prosecutor seemed to be overlooking other suspects who were also present at the scene.

00:38:19Furthermore, there was no evidence proving that Su Ho was the one who directly stabbed Min Ho.

00:38:25Therefore, Su Ho couldn't be convicted as the murderer in this case.

00:38:30Wu Hayek, as a prosecutor, should have stood up to object.

00:38:33However, he remained silent.

00:38:35Perhaps he also believed in Su Ho's innocence.

00:38:38Meanwhile, the pilot's wife, ever since being kidnapped and locked in a cage, had been receiving meals daily.

00:38:45Today, she feigned cutting her wrist, deceiving the guard and escaping.

00:38:50Upon hearing that her son had been acquitted, the chairman's wife once again convened the board of directors, proposing Su Ho as the successor.

00:38:58A dissenting shareholder raised the question.

00:39:01There are rumors that the chairman has regained consciousness.

00:39:04Why are we still electing a successor?

00:39:07The wife calmly admitted.

00:39:08It's true that he has regained consciousness, but his brain has been damaged.

00:39:13He's no longer stable enough for us to trust.

00:39:16She even arranged a live feed from the hospital room.

00:39:20Everyone witnessed the chairman's current condition firsthand, clearly seeing that he was unable to continue running the company.

00:39:27The shareholders had no choice but to agree to the eldest son's succession.

00:39:31The wife and her younger brother rejoiced at easily securing the succession.

00:39:35As they got into their car, the doors suddenly locked.

00:39:39The chauffeur drove off.

00:39:41The chauffeur was none other than Ricky.

00:39:43After Min Ho's death, he had shifted his target, aiming to give evidence related to the chairman to the wife in exchange for money.

00:39:51Initially, she didn't want to get involved with him.

00:39:54However, Ricky threatened Su Ho's chairmanship, so she had to compromise.

00:39:59Yu Ra invited Yong Won to a restaurant.

00:40:01She presented Min Ho's call logs from before his death.

00:40:04It was clear that Yong Won had been present at the chairman's office that night.

00:40:09But Yu Ra wanted to know where she had been before going to the office.

00:40:13How could Yong Won reveal what happened between her and Wu Hayek that night?

00:40:17Even so, Yu Ra had already guessed.

00:40:20She then asked.

00:40:22Isn't it true that if Min Ho were gone, you could openly love Wu Hayek?

00:40:27Yong Won remained silent, about to leave.

00:40:30But Yu Ra gave her an ultimatum.

00:40:32If you obediently disappear, I'll pretend I don't know anything.

00:40:36But if you continue to stubbornly cling to Wu Hayek, you'll lose everything.

00:40:41Elsewhere, Hayek was asking his friend to investigate the chairman.

00:40:44He suspected that the chairman was feigning his condition to protect himself.

00:40:49Was this a possibility?

00:40:50The helicopter accident hadn't taken his life, but who knows if the second time wouldn't be so fortunate.

00:40:57Yong Won prepared a delicious meal for Wu Hayek.

00:40:59She also invited their mutual friend to join them for dinner and conversation.

00:41:05Everything was cheerful.

00:41:06They even took photos together to capture the memorable moment.

00:41:10After Hayek fell asleep, Yong Won stood beside him, looking at the man she loved and at their photo together, tears falling from her eyes.

00:41:19She loved him, but to prevent further suffering for everyone, she decided to leave him.

00:41:24Their love would ultimately remain a memory, forever hidden from the light.

00:41:28That day, while the madam was discussing business with a shareholder, Su Ho suddenly entered.

00:41:34He expressed his desire to take over the chairman's position as soon as possible.

00:41:39Before that, a proper funeral for Min Ho had to be held.

00:41:42He instructed that everything be prepared for the following day, inviting both company shareholders and the investigators involved in the case.

00:41:49The shareholder felt the timeline was too rushed.

00:41:53Su Ho immediately corrected him.

00:41:55Never question the chairman's words.

00:41:57Just follow them.

00:41:58Intimidated, the shareholder quickly agreed to make the arrangements.

00:42:02Observing her son's demeanor, the madam was pleased.

00:42:06This was the conduct of a future chairman.

00:42:08She then called Yong Won to attend.

00:42:11After all, she was still Min Ho's wife and should be present at the funeral.

00:42:14At the ceremony, Su Ho delivered the eulogy on behalf of the family.

00:42:19But first, he invited his sister-in-law, Yong Won, to say a few words in farewell to her husband.

00:42:25She expressed her love for Min Ho.

00:42:28Following her, Su Ho eloquently expressed his grief for his younger brother.

00:42:32Suddenly, the chairman burst into the funeral, accusing Su Ho of harming Min Ho, his most beloved son.

00:42:39Yong Won comforted him.

00:42:40Yu Ra, witnessing this, initially thought her father had recovered.

00:42:45But he then became incontinent and started speaking incoherently.

00:42:48Staff and his daughter quickly escorted him out.

00:42:51Yu Ra wondered,

00:42:52How could my father have gotten here?

00:42:55A staff member then revealed that Su Ho had ordered the chairman to be brought there.

00:42:59Su Ho's actions were intended to demonstrate to the shareholders that the chairman was mentally unstable

00:43:05and unable to continue running the company.

00:43:08Meanwhile, Wu Hayek received a call.

00:43:10The caller informed him that the pilot's wife had been located.

00:43:14He and a colleague immediately set off to retrieve her.

00:43:17Upon arrival, they quickly brought her back to Seoul for her safety.

00:43:21She could be a crucial witness in the case.

00:43:24Yu Ra's junior colleague, investigating Yong Won's bank card spending records,

00:43:29discovered she visited the obstetrics and gynecology department twice every month.

00:43:33Yu Ra was shocked was Yong Won pregnant.

00:43:36She immediately confronted her sister-in-law.

00:43:38Yu Ra demanded to know who the father was.

00:43:41If it was Wu Hayek's, then Yong Won was despicable for having an affair while still married.

00:43:47The more she thought about it, the more Yu Ra hated her sister-in-law and vowed to make her pay.

00:43:52The stress caused Yong Won severe abdominal pain.

00:43:56Fortunately, her close friend noticed and promptly called a doctor.

00:43:59After the examination, the doctor assured them it wasn't serious and she just needed rest.

00:44:05As the doctor left, Yu Ra was waiting.

00:44:08She confronted Wu Hayek,

00:44:10Is it your child?

00:44:11Wu Hayek calmly replied,

00:44:13I don't care.

00:44:14Whosoever child it is, I still love Yong Won.

00:44:18Hearing him say those words, Yu Ra was devastated.

00:44:21It turned out that all along, only she had been in love.

00:44:25Wu Hayek had never had any feelings for her.

00:44:27With the pilot's wife secured, Wu Hayek and his colleague planned their next move.

00:44:33He suspected the Madam and Su Ho were behind the helicopter crash.

00:44:37He decided to leak this information to a subordinate.

00:44:40If there was a mole, the other side would surely react.

00:44:43He also asked his colleague to create a sketch of the assassin who had infiltrated the investigation headquarters.

00:44:50Simultaneously, they discreetly assembled a new special forces team to apprehend him.

00:44:54They also installed surveillance cameras in the hospital room where the pilot's wife was recovering.

00:45:01Now, all they had to do was wait for their trap to spring.

00:45:04After a long wait, a suspicious man approached the hospital room.

00:45:08As he entered, everyone rushed in to subdue him.

00:45:11But then they realized this wasn't the assassin.

00:45:14Wu Hayek anxiously called to check on the pilot's wife's whereabouts.

00:45:18The caregiver said she was fine.

00:45:20Just then, the woman snatched the phone.

00:45:23She claimed that everything was orchestrated by the Madam's younger brother.

00:45:27Hearing this, Hayek's heart sank.

00:45:29It seemed their target wasn't the pilot's wife after all, but the Madam's brother.

00:45:34This was bad.

00:45:35They immediately rushed to find him.

00:45:37By this time, the assassin they were tracking had already arrived at his house.

00:45:42The Madam's brother was still restlessly awake.

00:45:45Hearing a noise, he sat up in fear.

00:45:47By the time Wu Hayek arrived with the police, he had vanished.

00:45:51The Madam pressured high-ranking officials in the prosecutor's office,

00:45:55causing Wu Hayek's superiors to abruptly demand he halt the helicopter crash investigation.

00:46:01Despite his vehement protests, his superiors dismissed him.

00:46:05The next day, they held a press conference.

00:46:07They announced that the pilot's wife was behind the crash,

00:46:10claiming she intentionally caused it to collect her husband's life insurance.

00:46:14They declared the incident had nothing to do with the Jaysha Corporation

00:46:18and that the pilot's wife was the sole perpetrator.

00:46:21Just like that, the helicopter crash investigation was hastily concluded.

00:46:26The reporters present clearly sensed something was amiss.

00:46:29They persistently questioned the prosecutors, who only responded with evasiveness.

00:46:34The team, especially Hayek, was deeply disturbed by this.

00:46:37He was furious beyond words.

00:46:39He vowed not to let this go so easily.

00:46:41Yu Ra received news of her uncle's disappearance.

00:46:46Furthermore, a colleague informed her that the pilot's wife had specifically named her uncle

00:46:50as the instigator in the helicopter incident.

00:46:53Yu Ra was smart enough to guess that her mother was connected to her uncle's disappearance.

00:46:58She rushed home to confront her mother, who naturally denied everything,

00:47:02challenging Yu Ra to bring forth any evidence.

00:47:05However, Yu Ra's sister-in-law had overheard their mother talking the previous night,

00:47:09saying that it all happened because her uncle wasn't cautious enough.

00:47:14Why corner yourself like that?

00:47:16She was terrified, realizing that this could happen to her too.

00:47:20The police, reviewing surveillance footage from the day Min Ho died,

00:47:24noticed a drone flying around the building.

00:47:26A colleague then recalled accidentally bumping into a box of similar drones

00:47:30belonging to a paparazzi photographer who had been arrested.

00:47:34It was a stroke of luck.

00:47:35Retrieving the drone's memory card, they discovered a priceless video.

00:47:40On the night of Min Ho's incident, Young Won, his wife, was also present at the scene.

00:47:45More importantly, she was holding a weapon, pointed towards her husband.

00:47:50Seeing this image, Wu Hayek froze, his mind going blank.

00:47:54His colleagues swiftly mobilized to arrest Young Won.

00:47:57She was on her way to the airport.

00:48:00Upon arrival, she saw Wu Hayek waiting.

00:48:02Before she could react, she was surrounded by police.

00:48:06A colleague quickly handcuffed her.

00:48:08Seeing his lover in this situation, he was powerless.

00:48:11The evidence was overwhelming.

00:48:13He could only suppress his grief and ask her to cooperate with the investigation.

00:48:18The madam also received news of Young Won's arrest.

00:48:21Wu Hayek, knowing Young Won had her reasons, concealed the truth about that night.

00:48:26He promised to protect her, no matter the cost,

00:48:29as long as she told him everything that happened.

00:48:32Young Won, unwilling to implicate him further, cruelly claimed she never loved him,

00:48:37stating she only needed security.

00:48:39Wu Hayek knew she was saying this to protect him.

00:48:42But he was determined to uncover the truth.

00:48:45Wu Hayek stayed up all night studying the case details.

00:48:49He wanted to quickly find strong evidence to exonerate Young Won.

00:48:52However, his superior wanted to halt the investigation to protect his reputation

00:48:57and scheduled a press conference that very morning.

00:49:00News spread that Young Won had been arrested as a suspect in her husband's murder.

00:49:05Reporters crowded the gates of the prosecutor's office to cover the story.

00:49:09In a short time, the news of Young Won harming her husband was everywhere.

00:49:14Min Ho's secretary was extremely worried when she heard the news.

00:49:17His wife was waiting for her to perform surgery.

00:49:20Min Ho's mother, however, didn't miss the opportunity.

00:49:23She immediately called high-ranking officials, asking them to ensure Dong On presumably Min Ho

00:49:29received appropriate punishment.

00:49:31As a mother who had lost her son, she couldn't bear it.

00:49:34She only wished to see the murderer brought to justice quickly.

00:49:38Her acting wasn't bad either.

00:49:40If Young Won was convicted, there would be no obstacle left for her Soo Ho.

00:49:45But Soo Ho believed otherwise.

00:49:47He was convinced Won wasn't the killer.

00:49:49The eldest daughter-in-law didn't take sides, but wanting to mend her relationship with her husband,

00:49:54she told Soo Ho about his mother's unusual behavior before Min Ho disappeared.

00:50:00From her perspective, this couldn't be unrelated to her mother-in-law.

00:50:04Furthermore, if his mother didn't even care about her younger son,

00:50:07she could easily be capable of harming Min Ho.

00:50:10The eldest daughter-in-law was using her husband as both a shield and a pawn in her struggle against her mother-in-law.

00:50:16Woo Hayek entered the room, presenting evidence piece by piece to help Young Won.

00:50:22He had discovered she'd hired a lawyer to file for divorce from her husband.

00:50:26Clearly, she had gone to see him that night to discuss this.

00:50:29He had also found out that she had been to the hospital multiple times for treatment.

00:50:34These were all injuries from Min Ho's domestic abuse.

00:50:38Woo Hayek was trying to steer the narrative toward self-defense, not premeditated murder.

00:50:42He tried to paint the most favorable picture possible.

00:50:46Young Won brought the divorce papers to Min Ho that night due to their unhappy marriage.

00:50:51He refused, assaulted her, and she reacted in self-defense when cornered.

00:50:56Despite Woo Hayek's efforts, Young Won remained silent.

00:51:00She neither confirmed nor denied anything.

00:51:03With her silence, the prosecutor's office had no choice but to issue an arrest warrant.

00:51:07Dejected, Woo Hayek returned home.

00:51:11As he reached the gate of his apartment building, he encountered a murder scene.

00:51:15He got out of his car and approached the victim.

00:51:18It was Ricky.

00:51:19So, he hadn't escaped his mother-in-law's reach after all.

00:51:23It turned out he had finalized the details with her about the location for the exchange of money and goods.

00:51:29But unexpectedly, upon arrival, he was ambushed by her men.

00:51:33Cornered, he ran into a nearby restroom.

00:51:36Unbeknownst to him, the assassin disguised as a police officer was already inside.

00:51:41By the time Ricky realized it, it was too late.

00:51:44Falling into his hands meant bad luck.

00:51:46However, Ricky was surprisingly resilient.

00:51:49He managed to escape and immediately called Woo Hayek to meet.

00:51:53He promised to reveal the whole truth about the person who harmed his father years ago.

00:51:58But Woo Hayek had Young Won's final interrogation at that same time.

00:52:03If she remained silent, she would be imprisoned.

00:52:06Woo Hayek was torn between two choices, the truth about his father's case and the woman he loved facing imprisonment.

00:52:13He didn't know what to choose.

00:52:15Ultimately, he chose Young Won, the woman he was currently trying to protect.

00:52:19Thus, he missed the most crucial witness in his father's case.

00:52:23Ricky was too reckless, unaware of the madam's ruthlessness.

00:52:27Someone like her would never allow him to control the situation.

00:52:31After all, the evidence in Nick's possession would disappear forever.

00:52:35The next day, the madam sent her trusted lawyer to meet with Young Won.

00:52:39The lawyer assured her that he would do everything in his power to lessen her sentence.

00:52:44But Young Won requested a meeting with her mother-in-law.

00:52:47Knowing she wouldn't come, Young Won wrote a note and asked the lawyer to deliver it.

00:52:52She was confident that once the madam read it, she would rush to see her.

00:52:56Skeptical, the lawyer nevertheless delivered the note.

00:52:59The madam's expression shifted upon reading it, and she immediately ordered a car to take her to the prosecutor's office.

00:53:06It turned out that on the night of Min Ho's incident, his secretary had also been present at the scene.

00:53:11He was the one who cleaned up, erasing all traces of Young Won.

00:53:15His motivation was still to ensure she kept her promise to operate on his wife.

00:53:20While the two were in the car, the secretary left an envelope before leaving.

00:53:24Inside were photos of Young Won and Woo Hayek that Min Ho had hired someone to take.

00:53:30There was also a document Chairman Jin's will.

00:53:33Young Won used the will as leverage against her mother-in-law.

00:53:36If she could get her out of jail, she would hand over the will.

00:53:39Otherwise, she would make it public.

00:53:42In the will, Min Ho was named the sole heir to the entire Jin Corporation.

00:53:47The madam scoffed, surprised by her daughter-in-law's naivete.

00:53:50Min Ho was dead, and she herself had been arrested for his murder.

00:53:55So who would inherit everything?

00:53:57It seemed she was still too inexperienced to play games with her.

00:54:00However, Young Won's next words wiped the smug look off the madam's face.

00:54:05She revealed that she was pregnant with Min Ho's child.

00:54:08While she couldn't inherit, her child could.

00:54:11The tables had turned.

00:54:13It seemed luck was on Young Won's side.

00:54:15The madam summoned her lawyers to handle the situation.

00:54:18She needed to get her daughter-in-law out of jail at any cost.

00:54:22But it wouldn't be easy.

00:54:24Seeing this, Yu Ra offered to handle it personally.

00:54:28The madam then gave her the phone number of an important contact her long-time informant.

00:54:33On her way home, the madam threw the murder weapon into the Han River.

00:54:37The secret of the past incident would be buried forever.

00:54:40Yu Ra went to meet the informant her mother had recommended.

00:54:44From now on, she needed to know every move within the prosecutor's office.

00:54:48However, the identity of this cunning informant remained a mystery.

00:54:52But based on a lipstick mark, it was likely a woman.

00:54:55Upon returning to her office, Yu Ra received an envelope.

00:54:59Inside was data from Wu Hayek's computer, sent by the informant.

00:55:03She noticed a locked folder.

00:55:05It must be important.

00:55:06She sought out a man and asked him to unlock it for her.

00:55:10Initially, he refused, citing illegality.

00:55:13But when Yu Ra offered him $2,001,000 for just 30 minutes of work, he immediately agreed.

00:55:19Soon, he delivered the contents of the folder.

00:55:22It turned out to be information Wu Hayek had gathered on the Gene Corporation.

00:55:27Furthermore, she discovered a news article about her father's case from two years prior.

00:55:31It turned out she was just a pawn in Wu Hayek's game.

00:55:35He had approached her for revenge, not out of genuine affection.

00:55:38How bitter, she hadn't expected this day to come so soon.

00:55:43Wu Hayek returned home after work and overheard a cell phone ringing nearby.

00:55:48Upon closer inspection, it was coming from the mailbox downstairs.

00:55:52It was Ricky's phone.

00:55:53He checked the recent calls.

00:55:55He discovered that before calling him, Ricky had contacted the madam.

00:55:59He immediately suspected that Ricky had been eliminated by her.

00:56:02The phone also contained pictures of the murder weapon and a recorded audio file.

00:56:08It turned out Ricky was being pursued by a hitman that day.

00:56:12Knowing his days were numbered, he decided to deliver the truth to Wu Hayek.

00:56:16Exhausted and at his wit's end, he placed his cell phone in a mailbox downstairs.

00:56:22In the recording, Ricky revealed to Wu Hayek that he was the chairman's driver.

00:56:26After Wu Hayek's father was murdered,

00:56:28the chairman tasked Ricky with cleaning up the scene to make it look like an accident.

00:56:32Unexpectedly, Ricky used the murder weapon to blackmail the chairman.

00:56:37He received a large sum of money on the condition that he leave the country and never return.

00:56:42Ricky hadn't been back in 20 years,

00:56:44and the person who murdered Wu Hayek's father was the chairman's wife.

00:56:49Upon learning the truth, Wu Hayek was furious.

00:56:52He rushed to confront her, demanding to know why she killed his father.

00:56:56The chairman's wife was terrified.

00:56:58Only then did she realize he was Cha Song Hyun's son.

00:57:01She confessed to taking his father's life.

00:57:04However, if she never revealed her reasons, it would remain a secret forever.

00:57:09Enraged, Wu Hayek directly asked,

00:57:12Were you afraid my father's company would rival Gene, so you had him killed?

00:57:16Despite his obvious distress, she remained calm and said nothing.

00:57:21Then, using the excuse that he was trespassing, she called security to have him removed.

00:57:25It was only then that her fear became apparent, the composure she had maintained now gone.

00:57:31If she did nothing, Wu Hayek would undoubtedly drag her down with him.

00:57:35He wouldn't let this go.

00:57:37The next day, she immediately contacted the hitman.

00:57:40First, she gave him a severe reprimand.

00:57:43His professionalism had led to Wu Hayek uncovering the truth.

00:57:47Therefore, he had to make Wu Hayek disappear without a trace, no matter the cost.

00:57:52I should have gotten rid of him back then.

00:57:55Then I wouldn't have this obstacle in my way.

00:57:58After learning Wu Hayek's true identity, Yu Ra went to see Jung Won.

00:58:02We were both deceived by him.

00:58:04Wu Hayek approached people at Gene with a purpose revenge for his father's murder.

00:58:09She then handed Jung Won a stack of documents from Wu Hayek's files.

00:58:14Jung Won didn't understand what her sister-in-law meant until Yu Ra explained everything.

00:58:18Wu Hayek was Cha Song Haiyan's son, the founder of Ingu Electronics.

00:58:24But that company had been absorbed by Gene long ago.

00:58:27Wu Hayek believed the chairman of Gene was responsible for his father's death

00:58:31and had been plotting revenge for the past 30 years.

00:58:35Jung Won refused to believe what Yu Ra was saying.

00:58:38But her sister-in-law produced a file on Jung Won that Wu Hayek had compiled.

00:58:43He had investigated her and knew about the strained relationship between her and Min Ho.

00:58:47That's why it was so easy for him to get close to her and use her for his own ends.

00:58:53Yu Ra left, leaving Jung Won standing there, stunned.

00:58:56She didn't know who to believe anymore.

00:58:59Knowing Yu Ra had visited Jung Won, Wu Hayek rushed over.

00:59:03They met at the door.

00:59:04Yu Ra claimed she was Jung Won's defense attorney, but her true intentions were different.

00:59:10She wanted to handle the case to ensure Jung Won received the appropriate punishment.

00:59:14But she knew that to get to Jung Won, she had to separate Wu Hayek from the investigation.

00:59:19So, she sent photos of Wu Hayek and Jung Won together to his superiors.

00:59:24The implication was clear.

00:59:26A prosecutor involved in a case shouldn't have a romantic relationship with the suspect.

00:59:31It compromised his objectivity.

00:59:34She used this to threaten his superiors.

00:59:36Finally, they were forced to remove Wu Hayek from the prosecutor's office.

00:59:40They reluctantly placed him on indefinite sick leave, effective immediately,

00:59:45barring him from any further involvement in Min Ho's case.

00:59:48Wu Hayek resigned himself to packing his belongings and leaving the office.

00:59:53At the door, he saw Yu Ra standing there.

00:59:55Her smug look told him she was up to something.

00:59:58Wu Hayek hurried back to Jung Won's office and warned her about Yu Ra's scheme.

01:00:03Yu Ra actually wanted her in jail,

01:00:05but now she was only concerned with whether he had been using her all along.

01:00:10Wasn't it true?

01:00:11Hadn't he treated her like a tool for his revenge?

01:00:14Wu Hayek was stunned that the woman he loved knew.

01:00:17He could only admit that he initially approached her with an ulterior motive,

01:00:21but his feelings for her were now genuine.

01:00:24Unfortunately, Jung Won didn't believe him, yelling at him to leave.

01:00:28In the end, she was the fool, used without even realizing it.

01:00:32Jung Won was taken to the detention center.

01:00:35Wu Hayek wanted to visit, but she refused.

01:00:38Now, with no way to protect Jung Won from Yu Ra,

01:00:41he took a desperate gamble and went to see the madam.

01:00:44Wu Hayek knelt and begged her to save Jung Won,

01:00:47promising never to inquire about his father's case if she were released.

01:00:51The madam was surprised to see Wu Hayek abandoned,

01:00:54the truth he'd pursued for so long for Jung Won's sake.

01:00:57So, they had fallen deeply in love.

01:01:00He was willing to let go of his hatred for her.

01:01:02But the madam refused his plea.

01:01:05Instead, she would tell him the truth about Cha Song Hyun's case.

01:01:09It turned out that years ago, his father and the madam had a tragic love affair.

01:01:13They fell in love while both were married.

01:01:16They truly wanted to be together,

01:01:18vowing to leave everything behind and run away.

01:01:20However, the madam knew his father valued family and couldn't abandon his wife and children.

01:01:26So, she brought a weapon with her.

01:01:28If he didn't show up, she would end her own life.

01:01:31But his father did come.

01:01:33Only, he wasn't there to run away with her,

01:01:35but to tell her he couldn't bring himself to leave his family.

01:01:38Although the madam had prepared herself mentally,

01:01:41it was still too difficult to accept.

01:01:44In a fit of jealousy, she lost control and attacked him.

01:01:47Ricky, then a trusted confidant tasked by the chairman with handling the aftermath,

01:01:52took a bribe and then double-crossed her.

01:01:54This was the truth Hayek had been chasing for 30 years.

01:01:58His father had died for that forbidden love.

01:02:01Now, revealing the truth wouldn't change anything.

01:02:03Returning home, Woo Hayek discarded all the documents related to the Jaysha Corporation.

01:02:09He didn't know if his actions were right or wrong,

01:02:12but all he wanted was to save Young Won.

01:02:15The next day, someone knocked on Woo Hayek's door.

01:02:18Surprisingly, it was the madam's younger brother.

01:02:21He had sensed something was amiss that night and escaped by jumping from the balcony.

01:02:25He had fled to a remote location,

01:02:27but the madam's men pursued him relentlessly.

01:02:30Desperate, he sought Woo Hayek's help.

01:02:32He confessed that his sister had orchestrated the helicopter incident,

01:02:36but Woo Hayek, unable to think clearly, angrily sent him away.

01:02:41The following day, he met Young Won's friend.

01:02:44She asked why he wasn't doing anything to help Young Won.

01:02:47Could he stand by and watch her be convicted?

01:02:49What about the baby she was carrying?

01:02:52How could he bear it?

01:02:53Her words seemed to awaken him.

01:02:55If the madam wouldn't accept his proposal,

01:02:57he would fight her to the end.

01:02:59He contacted a friend and asked for his help.

01:03:02They located the madam's brother's hiding place to ensure his safety.

01:03:06The brother had to hand over all the evidence he possessed to Woo Hayek.

01:03:10Woo Hayek then instructed him to call the madam.

01:03:13Hearing her brother's voice, she was overcome with worry.

01:03:17Following Woo Hayek's instructions,

01:03:19the brother quickly arranged a meeting place.

01:03:21It was the temple where Woo Hayek's parents rested.

01:03:24When the madam arrived, Woo Hayek appeared as well.

01:03:28Based on Su Ho's investigation results from the contents under Min Ho's fingernails that day,

01:03:33they discovered traces of heroin in Su Ho's system.

01:03:37If this information were to get out,

01:03:39what would the shareholders think about a drug addict becoming chairman?

01:03:42Even if Su Ho escaped this time, Woo Hayek would remain determined to pursue him.

01:03:48Given any opportunity, he would overthrow Su Ho.

01:03:51For the madam, perhaps her son was her only concern.

01:03:54So, she decided to set Jung Won free.

01:03:57Looking at her son before her, she knew he was a man of his word.

01:04:01If his father had possessed such resolve, her fate might have been different.

01:04:05She ordered the assassin to stop the assassination attempt on Woo Hayek.

01:04:09She would wait until Jung Won was released,

01:04:12and then she would have them experience the pain of eternal separation,

01:04:16leaving Woo Hayek to bear the grief for the rest of his life.

01:04:19With her intervention, Jung Won was indeed declared innocent by the court.

01:04:24Jung Won, also adhering to the agreement,

01:04:26immediately handed over the chairman's will to her mother-in-law.

01:04:30Thus, their relationship would end completely there.

01:04:33Wandering aimlessly on her way home,

01:04:36sitting at the bus stop,

01:04:37a fragmented memory resurfaced.

01:04:39It turned out that on the night of Min Ho's death,

01:04:42she had indeed threatened him with a weapon.

01:04:44But she was quickly subdued by Min Ho.

01:04:47He used sweet words to keep her by his side,

01:04:49but she had already seen through his lies.

01:04:52She asked,

01:04:53Even if I'm carrying someone else's child,

01:04:55will you still love me?

01:04:57Hearing this,

01:04:58the demon within him instantly arose,

01:05:00grabbing and choking her.

01:05:01Jung Won struggled,

01:05:03feeling like she was about to lose consciousness.

01:05:05When the secretary appeared,

01:05:07it was he who had attacked his own boss.

01:05:10After getting Jung Won out,

01:05:11he cleaned the scene to erase any trace of evidence.

01:05:14Everything the secretary did was to ensure she could perform surgery on his wife.

01:05:19Therefore, upon seeing Jung Won released from court,

01:05:22the secretary planned to kidnap her.

01:05:24Now, after remembering everything,

01:05:26Jung Won walked to the main road.

01:05:29Across the street was the man she loved.

01:05:31The pedestrian light blinked green,

01:05:33and as they walked toward each other,

01:05:35a car sped towards them.

01:05:37Wu Hayek quickly embraced Jung Won,

01:05:39shielding her.

01:05:40Both fell to the ground.

01:05:42The secretary quickly got out of the car,

01:05:44pulled her into his vehicle,

01:05:45and drove away.

01:05:47Wu Hayek urgently called a friend to bring a car and follow.

01:05:50A chase ensued,

01:05:52but the cunning secretary easily lost them.

01:05:54The secretary's wife's condition in the hospital was critical.

01:05:58He needed to bring someone to perform the surgery quickly.

01:06:01But just then,

01:06:02Jung Won revealed she was pregnant.

01:06:04She wanted to keep the baby and couldn't perform the surgery.

01:06:08The secretary fell silent,

01:06:09but his wife couldn't wait any longer.

01:06:12In the end,

01:06:12he decided to take Jung Won to perform the surgery anyway.

01:06:16Wu Hayek asked his colleagues to track down the secretary's car.

01:06:20He also requested their assistance.

01:06:22At that moment,

01:06:23a female colleague offered a clue.

01:06:25She mentioned a name from Jung Won's call log,

01:06:28Bugi likely meant to be Moji.

01:06:30After investigating Bugi Moji,

01:06:32they learned that she had been seriously ill and hospitalized for a long time,

01:06:36with the secretary covering her medical expenses.

01:06:39But she had recently been discharged.

01:06:42Furthermore,

01:06:42they discovered that Jung Won and Moji

01:06:44had undergone compatibility testing for a transplant.

01:06:48So,

01:06:48the secretary was likely taking Jung Won to the hospital for the surgery.

01:06:52Upon hearing this,

01:06:53Wu Hayek asked his colleagues to find the phone number of the doctor where they had the tests done.

01:06:59From there,

01:06:59they could find a lead on Jung Won.

01:07:01Just then,

01:07:02he spotted the secretary's car passing by.

01:07:05He had already switched to an ambulance for easier travel.

01:07:08Wu Hayek immediately drove his car to block their path,

01:07:12forcing them to stop.

01:07:13A fight ensued,

01:07:15and he ultimately knocked the secretary to the ground.

01:07:18Thinking Jung Won was finally safe,

01:07:20they were suddenly attacked by a group of people and knocked unconscious.

01:07:24It turned out the assassin had been tailing them the entire time,

01:07:27waiting for the opportune moment to capture them both.

01:07:30Hayek eventually regained consciousness,

01:07:33finding himself tied up.

01:07:34Someone brought in a television,

01:07:36and before he could understand what was happening,

01:07:38Jung Won's image appeared on the screen.

01:07:40She was bound and trapped in a cage.

01:07:43Seeing her like that,

01:07:44Wu Hayek was heartbroken and felt utterly helpless.

01:07:48Upon learning of Jung Won's kidnapping,

01:07:50he immediately suspected his mother's involvement.

01:07:53Furious,

01:07:54he confronted her.

01:07:55She didn't outright confess,

01:07:57but her words heavily implied her complicity.

01:08:00Yu Ra tried to intervene,

01:08:01but her mother-in-law dismissed her,

01:08:03angrily ordering her to leave.

01:08:05Left to her own thoughts,

01:08:07Yu Ra finally decided to call the police.

01:08:09However, the secretary snatched the phone away

01:08:12and confined her to a room under strict supervision,

01:08:15determined to prevent her from interfering

01:08:16with the next day's chairman election.

01:08:19Worried about Jung Won's safety,

01:08:21Wu Hayek seized a moment when the guard wasn't looking to reach for a card in his wallet,

01:08:26using it to cut the ropes binding him.

01:08:28When the guard returned,

01:08:29Wu Hayek swiftly overpowered him.

01:08:32Though the guard put up a fight,

01:08:33he was ultimately defeated.

01:08:35Suspecting Jung Won might be held at the same location

01:08:38where the captain's wife was previously imprisoned,

01:08:41Wu Hayek called his colleagues for backup

01:08:43and set off for the location himself.

01:08:45There,

01:08:46Wu Hayek once again faced the assassin.

01:08:49Fueled by rage,

01:08:50he managed to completely overpower him this time.

01:08:53He rushed to Jung Won's side,

01:08:55but she had lost consciousness from exhaustion.

01:08:58Fortunately,

01:08:58he got her to the hospital in time,

01:09:00saving her life.

01:09:01The assassin was apprehended,

01:09:03but despite Wu Hayek's questioning,

01:09:05he remained silent.

01:09:07Though he knew his mother was behind the ordeal,

01:09:10he had no way to prove it.

01:09:11On the day of the election,

01:09:13the company's board members were to vote on Su Ho's succession as chairman.

01:09:17Contrary to his mother's expectations,

01:09:20very few voted in favor.

01:09:22She immediately stood up,

01:09:23angrily questioning the shareholders.

01:09:25Losing her composure,

01:09:27she demanded an explanation.

01:09:28Su Ho then stepped forward to reveal the truth.

01:09:31He had orchestrated the outcome,

01:09:33holding a secret meeting beforehand.

01:09:35He confessed his inadequacy for the role

01:09:37and urged them to choose someone more capable for the company's future.

01:09:41He had transferred all his shares to that person,

01:09:44none other than his sister,

01:09:46Yu Ra.

01:09:46With the shareholders' support,

01:09:48Yu Ra was nominated as the new chairman of Gene Corporation.

01:09:52His mother was naturally furious.

01:09:54She retreated to a room to compose herself,

01:09:57only to be confronted by her daughter-in-law,

01:09:59who brought red wine to toast the occasion.

01:10:02She gloated,

01:10:03announcing her plans to leave with Su Ho and live happily ever after,

01:10:07leaving her mother-in-law alone in the cold, empty mansion.

01:10:11Enraged by these taunts,

01:10:12his mother grabbed a wine bottle and struck her daughter-in-law's head.

01:10:16Her body crumpled to the floor.

01:10:18Grief-stricken,

01:10:19the mother stumbled out of the room,

01:10:21where her son was waiting.

01:10:23He embraced her, offering comfort.

01:10:25He confessed his mistakes and expressed his hope for their family's future happiness.

01:10:30As she stroked his face,

01:10:31she uttered that it was too late,

01:10:33far too late.

01:10:34Su Ho then noticed the chilling red stain on his mother's hand.

01:10:38He suddenly felt uneasy,

01:10:40pulled away from his mother,

01:10:41and rushed into the room.

01:10:43There, he found his wife lying motionless on the floor,

01:10:46no longer breathing.

01:10:47Su Ho trembled and burst into tears.

01:10:50At that moment,

01:10:51Wu Hayek arrived with officers to arrest the chairman's wife.

01:10:55Finally,

01:10:56this cruel woman would pay for her crimes.

01:10:58However,

01:10:59the assassin from the hospital had vanished without a trace.

01:11:02Without a witness,

01:11:03they couldn't convict her.

01:11:05In the previous incidents,

01:11:06the secretary,

01:11:07after kidnapping Young Won,

01:11:09hadn't been able to perform the surgery on his wife.

01:11:12After taking care of her funeral arrangements,

01:11:14he was arrested as the perpetrator in Min Ho's case.

01:11:18After everything that had happened,

01:11:19Young Won decided to leave and start a new life far away.

01:11:23Knowing he couldn't stop her,

01:11:25her close friend could only wish her a safe journey.

01:11:28Wu Hayek arrived too late.

01:11:30Learning of Young Won's departure,

01:11:31he rushed out,

01:11:32but he couldn't see her one last time.

01:11:35A year later,

01:11:36Wu Hayek resigned as a prosecutor to become a lawyer.

01:11:39Yu Ra, knowing this,

01:11:41deliberately attended his court session to see him.

01:11:44Just like their first meeting,

01:11:45although he seemed sleepy before the trial,

01:11:47he immediately became professional once it began.

01:11:51After the session,

01:11:52she asked him if he had any news about Young Won.

01:11:54But seeing his somber face,

01:11:56she knew there was still no word.

01:11:59Yu Ra had now let go of her hatred.

01:12:01She hoped he would soon find Young Won and bring her happiness.

01:12:05At the prosecutor's office party,

01:12:07the chief announced prosecutor Kim's promotion.

01:12:09This woman was, in fact,

01:12:11the former informant for the chairman's wife and Yu Ra.

01:12:14Now, to express her gratitude,

01:12:16Yu Ra had used her influence to help her reach a higher position.

01:12:20After his wife's death,

01:12:22Su Ho returned to painting,

01:12:23his childhood passion.

01:12:25Before embarking on a new journey,

01:12:27he visited the chairman and gave him an oil painting of their family of five,

01:12:31hoping to evoke happy memories.

01:12:33It was unclear if the chairman had truly regained consciousness,

01:12:37but perhaps this state was best for him now.

01:12:40Wu Hayek visited the chairman's wife in jail.

01:12:42Despite being imprisoned,

01:12:44she remained arrogant and declared

01:12:46she would never give up on her revenge against Wu Hayek and Young Won.

01:12:50Wu Hayek then revealed a truth to her.

01:12:53The chairman had long recognized Min Ho's ambition and cruelty.

01:12:57Though he loved his son,

01:12:58he knew that if Min Ho took over,

01:13:00the fate of the company would be uncertain.

01:13:03Therefore, he had called Wu Hayek to secretly amend his will,

01:13:06choosing Su Ho as his successor.

01:13:09It turned out that her greed had led her to destroy everything.

01:13:11It was fate.

01:13:13The truth was out,

01:13:14but it was too late to turn back.

01:13:17Now,

01:13:17she would live out the rest of her days in torment and regret.

01:13:21After a long time,

01:13:22Young Won's close friend received a message from her with a picture,

01:13:26saying she was doing well.

01:13:27Through the image,

01:13:28they discovered her location,

01:13:30Osaka, Japan.

01:13:31They immediately told Wu Hayek,

01:13:33who rushed there to find her.

01:13:35No matter how vast the city,

01:13:37if their love was strong enough,

01:13:38they were bound to find each other.

01:13:41Seeing the silhouette of his beloved,

01:13:42they embraced emotionally.

01:13:44After everything,

01:13:45they would start a new life together,

01:13:47filled with happiness and lifelong peace.
