00:00:00I, Elisa, a nobody in the workplace. Single since birth for 23 years. Never even held a man's hand, but last night I accidentally slept with my boss. He's a CEO. He's the kind of guy that you read about in novels. And he already has a woman in his heart.
00:00:22Hey, it's been a really long night. And I think it should be a longer night. You should come over. I'll see you soon.
00:00:40What do you mean by question mark? Because it used to be fun. I have good wine. I'm in room 1501. I'll see you soon.
00:00:52I'm coming.
00:01:04Mr. Hawthorne? What are you doing?
00:01:22Please come home as soon as possible.
00:01:38as soon as possible.
00:01:40I just received an order from the court
00:01:42since we are unable to repay the huge debt your father owed.
00:01:45Our house will be auctioned off to pay off the debt.
00:01:49We must move out of the house now.
00:01:52Don't worry, I'm gonna be right there.
00:02:02Oh my God, is this bomb?
00:02:03Are you okay?
00:02:06I'm fine, honey.
00:02:08I'm so sorry I couldn't save the house.
00:02:13Don't worry.
00:02:14As long as we're together,
00:02:17we'll get through this difficult time.
00:02:19I'm sorry.
00:02:23Is there anything else in there?
00:02:24No, this is it.
00:02:28One second, okay?
00:02:29I'll be right back.
00:02:31Hello?
00:02:33Lisa, where are you?
00:02:34Don't you remember where we're supposed to meet
00:02:36and in the conference room at nine?
00:02:38Manager Smith's gone crazy looking for you.
00:02:40I'm so sorry, but something unexpected happened at home.
00:02:43And, um, if you could please just tell management that-
00:02:48Hello?
00:02:50No, no, no, no, no, no.
00:02:51Fuck, fuck.
00:02:54I just lost my house,
00:02:55and now I'm gonna lose my job too?
00:02:57Where am I going to find a million dollars?
00:03:03Lisa?
00:03:05Why are you crying?
00:03:07Um...
00:03:11Mr. Hawthorne, what are you doing here?
00:03:13Oh, I'm actually here for you.
00:03:14What?
00:03:15I need a marriage partner.
00:03:18Again, what?
00:03:19I need you to be my wife.
00:03:21Give it a thought.
00:03:25Mr. Hawthorne,
00:03:26I was...
00:03:28really drunk last night,
00:03:29and I can't remember how everything happened after,
00:03:32but you really don't-
00:03:32Look, I know some unfortunate things
00:03:34have happened in your family recently.
00:03:38This card has more than enough on it
00:03:41to pay off all your debts
00:03:43and make sure that your house doesn't get auctioned off.
00:03:45If you agree,
00:03:47we can get the marriage certificate right now.
00:03:49I don't know what you're doing here.
00:03:50I don't know what you're doing here.
00:03:51I don't know what you're doing here.
00:03:52I don't know what you're doing here.
00:03:57Why do you want to help me?
00:03:59I told you.
00:04:00I need a wife.
00:04:02And you're the most suitable person.
00:04:10Okay.
00:04:11It's for my family.
00:04:14I have no other way.
00:04:17Mr. Hawthorne.
00:04:18Thank you so much for helping me.
00:04:21I promise I will pay you back every cent as soon as I can.
00:04:24You don't have to pay me back more than happy.
00:04:28I'm gonna get back to work then.
00:04:30Ronan will actually take you back.
00:04:33And I'll give you my home address,
00:04:35so you can move in tonight.
00:04:36Your home address?
00:04:39We're legally married.
00:04:41What's wrong with living guy?
00:04:43Right.
00:04:44This is a deal.
00:04:45I can't just take the money and give nothing in return.
00:04:48I can get myself to work.
00:04:50And I'll be back on time tonight.
00:04:59Elisa,
00:05:00you're finally mine.
00:05:01I can't.
00:05:06Oh my god.
00:05:07I'm so sorry.
00:05:08I was reading and I didn't see you there.
00:05:10No worries.
00:05:10It's fine.
00:05:16Can I have your name?
00:05:17I'm Elisa.
00:05:18Elisa.
00:05:20Yo!
00:05:21Never knew Mr. Hawthorne would have such a silly smile moment.
00:05:25Alright.
00:05:29It's real?
00:05:30If your mom finds out you married a Cinderella.
00:05:33Alright, give it back.
00:05:34Then watch your mouth.
00:05:40You really married Mr. Hawthorne?
00:05:42It's just a contract marriage.
00:05:43I'll explain it to you later.
00:05:46Mrs. Elisa Hawthorne.
00:05:49You are the CEO's wife.
00:05:50So where is my pay rate?
00:05:52I couldn't help.
00:05:53We've known each other since middle school.
00:05:55I don't think he actually likes me.
00:05:57Plus, everyone in the company knows who he actually wants to be with.
00:06:03Ms. Hartha's back!
00:06:13Mr. Hawthorne's back!
00:06:17Hello, everyone.
00:06:19Please, help yourself to have some cake.
00:06:22Thank you, Ms. Hart.
00:06:23You are so very kind.
00:06:25It's really such an honor to work with you.
00:06:27Please, don't flatter me.
00:06:29I have to go see Mr. Hawthorne right now.
00:06:31He must want to see me right now.
00:06:34Save a slice for me, honey.
00:06:37When do you think they will make their relationship public?
00:06:39Probably soon.
00:06:40Last time I accidentally saw Mr. Hawthorne unlock his phone,
00:06:44the code is 0903, Ms. Hart's birthday,
00:06:46and isn't it a little too obvious?
00:06:48Wow, I never knew Mr. Hawthorne to be so romantic.
00:06:51He usually puts on a poker face.
00:06:52Amelia, my relationship with Mr. Hawthorne.
00:06:57Please don't talk to me.
00:07:09Okay.
00:07:100903.
00:07:17That's Summer's birthday again.
00:07:19If they love each other so much, then...
00:07:22It's okay, whatever it is.
00:07:23He's just not getting his money back.
00:07:34Why aren't you coming in?
00:07:37Why aren't you coming in?
00:07:38Mr. Hawthorne, I think that we should talk-
00:07:40Hold it.
00:08:01What should I do? Am I supposed to sleep with him tonight?
00:08:05I know that we did that before, but I was drunk.
00:08:11If I turn him down, will he get angry? But if I don't-
00:08:16Melissa? You okay?
00:08:18I'm fine. Thank you for asking.
00:08:20I'm- I'm not ready.
00:08:23I was just gonna turn off the light. What'd you think I was gonna do?
00:08:26Oh yeah, no. Don't get me wrong, I just meant I wasn't ready to sleep yet.
00:08:32Alisa, I don't want some one-night stand. I want to be your everything.
00:08:36Matthew, why did the negotiations with the sunlight group fail?
00:08:38It's Alisa's fault. If she hadn't skipped work that day, we could have succeeded.
00:08:42How is it her fault? Please give me a reasonable explanation.
00:08:45I heard someone saw Mr. Hawthorne entering her role-
00:09:05could have succeeded. How is it her fault? Please give me a reasonable explanation.
00:09:10I heard someone saw Mr. Hawthorne entering her hotel room the night before Elisa skipped work.
00:09:18What? What did you say to me? It is absolutely true. Not only did she cause our failure,
00:09:25but she dared to seduce Mr. Hawthorne when you were away.
00:09:36Matthew, you know how important our negotiations with the sunlight group is.
00:09:42And since it is your subordinates' fault, you know what to do, right?
00:09:48Rest assured, I know what to do.
00:09:56Last night, with Lucian laying beside me, I couldn't sleep at all.
00:10:00Elisa, is this how you do your job? Look what trouble you brought us. It is because of you
00:10:07that we lost the project with the sunlight group. You're fired.
00:10:10Mr. Clark, I was only in charge of the initial budget, not the negotiations. I don't understand
00:10:17how this could be my fault. Did you forget about your unexcused absence last time?
00:10:21Did you forget about your unexcused absence last time?
00:10:27That's because something unexpected happened at home, but I called in for a leave of absence.
00:10:30So what? We needed you last minute and you weren't there. Now that the project has failed,
00:10:36if you're not to blame, who else would it be?
00:10:40I was absent that day, yes, but I prepared the initial budget ahead of time,
00:10:44so there is no way that my absence would have affected the negotiations.
00:10:49Wouldn't have affected the negotiations?
00:10:51Elisa, take a closer look. What did you write in the project budget?
00:10:55No, no, no, no, this isn't right. I wrote 50 million. How did it become 5 million?
00:11:10For a professional budget analyst, you've made such a sloppy mistake.
00:11:14Elisa, do you have anything else to say for yourself?
00:11:17Looks like Elisa is in trouble.
00:11:20Elisa always strikes me as a professional. How could she make such an error?
00:11:25Keep it down. Can't you see? They're just trying to find something to take responsibility.
00:11:29Wait, I have evidence to prove that my budget was correct.
00:11:39Evidence? Then why don't you show it to everyone?
00:11:42I have the dated source files on my computer that can show that I had the right numbers.
00:11:47No, no, they were right here. How could they be gone?
00:11:50Elisa, are you joking? Where's your so-called evidence?
00:11:54Elisa, are you suggesting that Mr. Clark and Ms. Hart are conspiring against you?
00:12:01You better pack up and leave now before making a bigger fool out of yourself.
00:12:05What are you saying? I've seen the budget Elisa made. We all checked it as a team.
00:12:13Obviously, someone tampered with it.
00:12:15Are you saying that we are framing her?
00:12:17At the very least, she deserves a good reason to be fired.
00:12:21Fine. If anyone else can vouch for Elisa, I can give her a second chance. Anyone?
00:12:30Weren't you there when we checked that time? I don't remember.
00:12:37Since there's no one, Elisa, would you like to walk yourself out?
00:12:41Or would you like me to have someone escort you out?
00:12:47This better be something important.
00:12:50Mr. Hawthorne, the business department is in uproar.
00:12:53So? Can't Summer handle it?
00:12:55She started it.
00:12:56Her and Mr. Clark are trying to fire Mrs. Hawthorne.
00:13:01Let's go.
00:13:03Amelia, it's okay.
00:13:05They clearly just want someone to blame for this entire thing.
00:13:07So what should we do then?
00:13:09Allow them to push all the blame onto you?
00:13:13Ms. Hart?
00:13:15Mr. Clark, I'll step down from my position, but I will never admit to mistakes that I didn't make.
00:13:21I will get down to the bottom of this.
00:13:23You're shameless. The evidence is right here.
00:13:26Where do you get the nerve to deny it?
00:13:28Besides the project book, there's also surveillance footage and there are computer backend logs.
00:13:33All of these will prove that my budget was correct, and I will investigate this until the end.
00:13:37There is no need for an investigation. You have already been fired.
00:13:46Since you refuse to leave, security? Drag her out.
00:13:57Elisa, you dare to seduce the man I like when I'm not around?
00:14:01You'll never set foot in Hawthorne Group ever again.
00:14:03Summer? What are you doing?
00:14:13Why is he here? Could it be he's here to support Summer?
00:14:17Lucian, what brings you here?
00:14:20Let her go.
00:14:22What's going on with these two? Am I fired or not?
00:14:26Could it be I'm just a pawn in their game?
00:14:29Care to explain what's going on?
00:14:30Well, Elisa made a big mistake at work, so I fired her.
00:14:35But she refused to leave, disrupting everyone at work.
00:14:38So Matthew called security to escort her out.
00:14:41Fired for what?
00:14:42Here's the thing, Mr. Hawthorne.
00:14:44The negotiations with the Sunlight Group failed due to Elisa's mistake.
00:14:48We had to let her go according to company regulations.
00:14:50You set me up with some half-baked plan.
00:14:53Tried to fire me and then called security.
00:14:55Is that within the lines of regulation?
00:14:58Elisa, how dare you question company regulations in front of Mr. Hawthorne?
00:15:02Lucian, see?
00:15:03She won't admit her mistakes and she even questions you in public.
00:15:09Oh god, now I'm really fired.
00:15:13Elisa actually talked back to Mr. Hawthorne.
00:15:16She has to be fired now.
00:15:18I'm actually pitying her, no matter what.
00:15:23Pitying her?
00:15:25You're an employee too.
00:15:26Mind your own business.
00:15:29Elisa, you sure are bald, aren't you?
00:15:32Elisa, don't you know what Mr. Hawthorne means?
00:15:35Hurry up and leave.
00:15:36Of course Lucian is on Summer's side.
00:15:39I'm just his wife out of nowhere.
00:15:42Surely I'm no match for his lover.
00:15:44Hold on.
00:15:56Did I tell you to leave?
00:15:57You're not angry?
00:15:59Why would I be angry?
00:16:00The company needs to find out who's responsible for Sunrise Group project first.
00:16:04Ronan, take charge of that.
00:16:05Yes, Mr. Hawthorne.
00:16:07So what you're saying is I'm not fired.
00:16:09At least for now.
00:16:10Lucian, Elisa not only made mistakes on this project, but she was absent from work without
00:16:17permission and she defied you in public.
00:16:19Summer, I'll handle company policy, okay?
00:16:23But we never, ever fire an employee for no reason.
00:16:27I, I agree with Lucian.
00:16:31Matthew, I told you to wait till the investigation was done, but you insisted that the results were clear.
00:16:36Apologize to Mr. Hawthorne right now.
00:16:39Yes, Ms. Hart.
00:16:41Is Lucian helping me?
00:16:42But as a CEO, he needs to do things fairly in front of his employees.
00:16:47This proves nothing.
00:16:49Elisa, may I have a few words with you?
00:16:55Elisa, you are damn lucky this time.
00:16:58But you won't be for the next time.
00:16:59Mr. Hawthorne, if this is about the project, then I'm so sorry that you were bothered.
00:17:14Do you think that's why I brought you here?
00:17:18Do you think that's why I brought you here?
00:17:20Next time something like that happens, come see me and let me handle it.
00:17:25You're so busy, I didn't want to bother you.
00:17:27We're married.
00:17:32You can do whatever you want.
00:17:33We're at the office, don't fool around.
00:17:37Fool around?
00:17:39Well, that's not the proper thing since we're married.
00:17:43Well, by that I guess you mean I should act like your wife all the time?
00:17:49Even while we're at work?
00:17:50That's not necessarily what I mean.
00:17:53Well, if that's all, Mr. Hawthorne, I guess I'll be going back to work.
00:18:06Elisa.
00:18:07Remember my words.
00:18:09Stay away from that girl.
00:18:15Elisa, when you were in Mr. Hawthorne's office-
00:18:18Amelia!
00:18:20I can't really understand the data over here.
00:18:21Can you help me please?
00:18:29Ms. Hart, may I help you?
00:18:31You are still under investigation.
00:18:34Now isn't the current time for you to be working on company projects.
00:18:37But I was just looking over the project budget for the next thing.
00:18:41Your current mission is to go downstairs and fetch me a cup of coffee.
00:18:44Can't you see the trash is full? Clean it.
00:18:48Ms. Hart, I'm an analyst. I'm not an intern.
00:18:52What? Are you defying your superior?
00:18:55Someone is really ignorant. She hasn't been clarified yet.
00:18:59Now she's defined her superior. Does she think she owns the company?
00:19:02Right? Ms. Hart is not just a daughter of a noble family.
00:19:07She also has an unusual relationship with our president.
00:19:10It would be in your best interest to help Ms. Hart with the trifle.
00:19:14Stop being ungrateful.
00:19:16Elisa, I can have you fired for defying your superior.
00:19:20So you better choose wisely.
00:19:22You're right. I like my job.
00:19:24And I'm going to become an excellent executive in my dream company.
00:19:29Fine.
00:19:30I'll do it.
00:19:39Better to bend than break, huh?
00:19:41It doesn't matter.
00:19:43Let's see how long you can keep tolerating.
00:19:48Ms. Hart, your coffee?
00:19:50Hand it to me.
00:20:00Oh my god, this coffee is so hot. It almost burned me alive.
00:20:03Oh my god, I'm so sorry. Are you okay?
00:20:06Don't you know I only drink ice americano? Who hired you anyway?
00:20:10I'm so sorry. I will go buy you one right now.
00:20:12Can't you see there's coffee on the floor? Clean it up now.
00:20:22Who told you you could mop the floor with that? If you damage the floors, can you afford to pay for them?
00:20:28How exactly would you like me to mop the floor, Ms. Hart?
00:20:31With a cloth on your hands and knees, inch by inch.
00:20:36Summer, don't you think you're going a little too far?
00:20:39What, can't handle it? You could always quit.
00:20:47Well, by that I guess you mean I should act like your wife all the time?
00:20:53Even while we're at work?
00:20:54Mr. Hawthorne, there's an upcoming online meeting with an overseas company.
00:21:00Uh-huh.
00:21:02Hey, is the business department next to the meeting room?
00:21:05Yes, Mr. Hawthorne.
00:21:07Let's pay her to visit first.
00:21:09He was just departing Mrs. Hawthorne and he's already so eager to see her.
00:21:12He's completely in love for that.
00:21:13I'm sorry.
00:21:17Ms. Hart, would you please lift your foot?
00:21:18Oh, I'm sorry. I didn't do it on purpose.
00:21:26Elisa, when you were seducing Lucian when I was away, have you ever thought of today?
00:21:33I didn't seduce him.
00:21:34You didn't!
00:21:36Do you really think I wouldn't know because I was away?
00:21:39If you didn't seduce Lucian, then you must be prepared for my revenge.
00:21:44Summer, what the hell are you doing?
00:21:48Summer, what the hell are you doing?
00:21:50Lucian!
00:21:50Elisa, are you all right?
00:21:51Elisa is still under investigation, right?
00:21:54She's not suitable for working on company projects, so I had her doing simpler tasks like fetching
00:21:59me coffee, but she spilled the coffee on purpose.
00:22:02That isn't true.
00:22:03It doesn't matter anyway.
00:22:04I don't blame her for it, but she insisted on wiping it up.
00:22:07I stepped on her by accident.
00:22:09I was about to apologize to her.
00:22:12Is that so?
00:22:13Elisa, is that actually what happened?
00:22:15Lucian is in love with Summer.
00:22:18Even if I told the truth, would he believe me?
00:22:21Yes, it's the truth.
00:22:23Come with me to my office.
00:22:27Come.
00:22:27Why on earth did Lucian call Elisa to his office again?
00:22:33I must find out.
00:22:40Have a seat.
00:22:43Your hands hurt.
00:22:44You need a bandage.
00:22:45It's, it's really fine.
00:22:47I can just go home and...
00:22:48No, no, I got it all right here.
00:22:50Have a seat.
00:22:55All right, let's see.
00:22:58You know, Summer is competent, but she can be bossy and overbearing.
00:23:03I can transfer you to another department if you can't bear her.
00:23:07Maybe mine, so we can spend more time together.
00:23:10No, no, I'm fine in the business department.
00:23:13Elisa, you're my wife.
00:23:15I don't want you to be bullied anymore.
00:23:17Stop pretending like you don't know she only does that because she's in love with you.
00:23:21Okay, last step.
00:23:26Okay, just don't let this hand touch water for a little bit.
00:23:28Thank you, Mr. Hoffman.
00:23:32It's just the two of us.
00:23:34You can call me by my name.
00:23:35Well, we're at work.
00:23:37I thought I shouldn't.
00:23:38Yeah, why shouldn't you?
00:23:39Lucian, why did you marry me?
00:23:41And why do you keep defending me?
00:23:44Do you really not know why?
00:23:46We've known each other since high school, but he's always kind of ignored me.
00:23:50Hasn't he always had a thing for Summer?
00:23:53Or could it be that everyone has been wrong all along?
00:24:02Bloody Elisa, you sure are good at playing naive.
00:24:06I must find a way to teach you a lesson.
00:24:11A reunion party?
00:24:13The gods are favoring me.
00:24:16Elisa, I must teach you a lesson this time.
00:24:22All right, it's ready.
00:24:27How many slices do you want?
00:24:29Mom, what's wrong?
00:24:30Elisa, isn't our house supposed to be auctioned off by the court to pay off our debts?
00:24:38Why hasn't this happened yet?
00:24:40Um...
00:24:43Well, I borrowed some money from a friend to help pay off the debts.
00:24:48What friend could afford to lend you so much money at once?
00:24:52Since we went bankrupt, all our old friends have disappeared.
00:24:58Well, Mom, you don't have to worry about it.
00:25:03It's okay.
00:25:03Elisa.
00:25:08Hey!
00:25:09Elisa, what took you so long?
00:25:10What's up?
00:25:11There's a school reunion party this weekend.
00:25:14They notified us in the group, but I figured you haven't read it yet since you didn't respond,
00:25:19so I'm just giving you a heads up.
00:25:20What?
00:25:21It's been ages.
00:25:22Why is there a high school reunion party out of nowhere?
00:25:26Here's the monthly report from the business department.
00:25:29Just leave it over there.
00:25:29How about we grab a drink tonight?
00:25:39I know a good place.
00:25:40I actually have plans tonight.
00:25:43If you don't have anything else, you can leave.
00:25:45Lucian, it's been so long...
00:25:46Summer, I said I'm busy.
00:25:49Please leave.
00:25:54Hold on.
00:25:55Will you be at the high school reunion?
00:25:56Summer, how many ways do I have to say this?
00:25:58I'm busy.
00:25:59Leave.
00:26:00Lucian, you have to be so gentle with me.
00:26:03But ever since Elisa came, you'll become colder and colder.
00:26:08Elisa, I won't let you off easily.
00:26:11I wonder if Lucian received the invitation to the reunion.
00:26:19Is he going?
00:26:20Something on your mind?
00:26:22It's not a big deal, but there's the high school reunion party later.
00:26:26Are you going?
00:26:28Are you going?
00:26:30I don't know.
00:26:31Amelia made a good point that we don't really see each other that often.
00:26:34Thought it'd be nice to get together.
00:26:37Um, you know what?
00:26:38I actually have a meeting.
00:26:40I think I'll pass.
00:26:42Okay.
00:26:43Yeah, that's fine.
00:26:44I'll send you something though, since I can't be there.
00:26:47You really don't have to do that.
00:26:48And I know it's far, so take this.
00:26:53Lucian, it's...
00:26:54That's way too expensive.
00:26:56I'm just going to take the subway.
00:26:58Elisa, I'm capable of offering you a better life.
00:27:01Why would you take the subway?
00:27:03Consider this a gift.
00:27:05Lucian is acting like he actually likes me.
00:27:09What game is he playing?
00:27:12Come on.
00:27:13Take it.
00:27:15You're just giving this to me?
00:27:18Well, I'm your husband.
00:27:20Legally speaking, what's mine is yours.
00:27:22Well, thank you then.
00:27:29This is a customized version.
00:27:31It probably costs millions.
00:27:33Jesus, Elisa.
00:27:34If it weren't for you, I'd never get to be in such a luxurious car.
00:27:38Seems like Mr. Hawthorne really is madly in love with you.
00:27:41You know, I'm still at the point where I'm wondering if he even likes me.
00:27:45He does treat me well though.
00:27:47You know all of his passwords are still Summer's birthday.
00:27:49I don't know.
00:27:51I'm probably just overthinking.
00:27:52Maybe it's, um, a misunderstanding or a coincidence.
00:27:58I feel like Mr. Hawthorne is quite cold to Summer.
00:28:01I don't think he's into her.
00:28:02No, that's just because he's trying to keep the down low at work.
00:28:06Well, even if he were trying to keep it that way, do you know how that saying goes?
00:28:12We can try to hide our feelings, but we forget that our eyes can speak.
00:28:16The way he looks at Summer, it doesn't feel right.
00:28:19Do you know what I mean?
00:28:20I have absolutely no idea what you mean because you sound crazy.
00:28:23You, uh, I'm done.
00:28:25You're so mean.
00:28:26I can't.
00:28:26Well, we're late, so we have to go.
00:28:27Okay.
00:28:36Hello, everyone.
00:28:37Long time no see.
00:28:39So sorry we're late.
00:28:40So it's Elisa.
00:28:42What is it?
00:28:43The poor student back then is putting airs now?
00:28:49Did you make us wait on purpose?
00:28:51Did you plan to arrive late deliberately to attract our attention?
00:28:58Elisa, you were still using the same lame tricks as back then, aren't you?
00:29:03Who wants to pay attention to her?
00:29:05After all this year, she's still the streets of poverty.
00:29:10Hey, don't say such words.
00:29:12What if she's doing well and busy with work?
00:29:16Maybe she didn't mean to be late.
00:29:17Her? She's probably a low-level employee.
00:29:20How well could she be doing?
00:29:22What do you mean by that?
00:29:23Elisa and I were just-
00:29:27Oh, Summer's here.
00:29:29Although it's been years since we graduated, she's only been more gorgeous.
00:29:32Summer is both the daughter of the noble family and Mr. Hoffman's childhood friend.
00:29:39Bet Summer is more than jealous now.
00:29:41Summer, come on, sit next to me.
00:29:44I've reserved the main seat for you.
00:29:47Sorry I'm late. Traffic was terrible.
00:29:52Never mind. It's our honor to have you.
00:29:55Summer, did you buy a new sports car?
00:29:57Not really. I just picked this one out of the garage because I was in a hurry.
00:30:02I'm actually tired of driving it I haven't used in.
00:30:06A sports car? That's something I can never afford.
00:30:09It's not that much. It's only a few hundred thousand.
00:30:13Wow, Summer surely is rich. Such an expensive car but it's like nothing to her.
00:30:20Naturally, don't you know who Summer is?
00:30:23Such a lottery car and nothing but a toy to her.
00:30:27She can have as many as she wants.
00:30:29A bunch of snob.
00:30:30A bunch of snob.
00:30:32Alisa, what car did you drive here?
00:30:37She? How could a poor girl like her afford a car?
00:30:40She must be taking the subway.
00:30:42What, does she race? That's the reason?
00:30:45Alisa, the subway will soon stop running.
00:30:48Do you want me to give you a ride?
00:30:50Oh Summer, you're still so kind-hearted. But how can somebody as low as her be riding in your luxury car?
00:30:59Be careful not to get her power distance all over you. It probably won't come off.
00:31:03What nonsense are you talking about?
00:31:05Alisa didn't take the subway and it wouldn't matter if she did.
00:31:09She drove here.
00:31:10And a fancy new limited edition convertible.
00:31:14Mm.
00:31:14Something more expensive than you can imagine.
00:31:17Oh my god, what a big mouth.
00:31:20What the hell? It really is a convertible.
00:31:23Impossible. She can never afford that.
00:31:26Alisa, did you rent a car just to show off at the reunion?
00:31:30It's... it's not rented.
00:31:32Not rented? Who are you trying to fool?
00:31:35You can't afford even the cheapest one of such cars, even if you're stuck yourself.
00:31:39Summer, is Hawthorne Group really that good?
00:31:43Even a little employee can afford such fancy convertible?
00:31:47Hardly. Although Hawthorne Group does have good benefits, it's not to that extent.
00:31:53With her salary, she could probably never afford it, even if she worked herself to death.
00:32:00Alisa, we're all classmates here. You don't have to pretend to be rich.
00:32:04It probably costs half of your salary to rent that car. It's best not to be so vain.
00:32:09What's the point of it? It's like the Cinderella. It will revert to its true form after midnight.
00:32:13Alisa, don't you find yourself ridiculous?
00:32:16Poor? Can they have a disguise to be rich?
00:32:19I was hardy to disappoint you, but it's not rented. It's a gift from my husband.
00:32:26Mr. Hawthorne, Mr. Walker's arrived. The meeting can start anytime.
00:32:30All right.
00:32:31Oh hey, by the way, my wife is having a class reunion party.
00:32:34Invite someone over with some fine wine. Let her have some fun.
00:32:37Yes, Mr. Hawthorne.
00:32:39I was hardy to disappoint you, but it's not rented. It's a gift from my husband.
00:32:44Alisa, what's the point of lying? First you rent a car to show up at the reunion,
00:32:50and now you're making up a story about a wealthy husband? Are you living in a novel?
00:32:56Summer, aren't you colleagues with Alisa? You should know if she's married or not, right?
00:33:01It's not my business. Even though I'm her superior, I try not to pry. Although I don't think so.
00:33:11If she really had a rich husband, why would she work for so little salary?
00:33:17So, Alisa is lying again? She is so shameless.
00:33:22Amelia, I think you should stay with Alisa. She's got a bad influence on you.
00:33:32And what do you know? Alisa's husband.
00:33:36Okay, okay. You guys keep partying. Uh, Amelia?
00:33:45Excuse me. These are the wines sent by Mr. Hawthorne.
00:33:48Oh! 1982 Lafitte? But we didn't order these wines.
00:33:57I'll send you something though, since I can't be there.
00:34:00The wine is for me, right? He did say he would send something over. This is too much.
00:34:05Summer, this wine must be a special gift from Mr. Hawthorne for you.
00:34:09Yeah. The only one among us who deserves such attention from Mr. Hawthorne is Summer. Who else could it be?
00:34:17This wine is for Mr. Hawthorne too. Summer and Mr. Hawthorne have been a perfect match in school.
00:34:22And now they are still so affectionately. I wonder if they're going to get married soon.
00:34:26Of course! Summer is future president's wife. Unlike someone.
00:34:33Oh, Alisa. You see, you can never shake my bond with Lucien.
00:34:38Alright everyone, since Lucien sent over these wines, let's enjoy them together.
00:34:43But Summer, this is 1982 Lafitte. I think some people here are not worthy of drinking such fine wine.
00:34:52They say cast your pearls before swine. Even if you let Alisa drink it, she wouldn't know how good the Lafitte is.
00:34:58That's true. Compared to her would be a waste.
00:35:01You're all wrong. This wine is for me. This wine is for me.
00:35:07Did I hear that right? You said that this wine was given to you by Mr. Hawthorne?
00:35:13It's hilarious. Do you think you're Mrs. Hawthorne?
00:35:16Mrs. Hawthorne? It's Summer.
00:35:19Are you daydreaming, Alisa? Do you think you're some Cinderella who married a president?
00:35:25Alisa, are you jealous of me? Not only jealous of my family background and my job,
00:35:31now you're jealous of my relationship with Lucien and want to claim the wines that are given to me.
00:35:36Don't you know that even if you try your hardest, what's not meant for you will never, never be yours?
00:35:44Oh, Summer. Don't ruin your mood over such a rat in the gutter. She's just a clown.
00:35:49How can you be so confident that the wine is for Summer?
00:35:52When Summer and Mr. Hawthorne started dating, Alisa was somewhere picking up trash.
00:35:59All you ever do is talk. Why the hell would I lie about something like this?
00:36:03Who knows? After all, you don't understand how to pour things.
00:36:06Hey, waiter. Tell us. Who does Mr. Hawthorne give these wines to?
00:36:12Yeah, tell us. Who does Mr. Hawthorne take this wine to?
00:36:16So that someone can start daydreaming.
00:36:19These wines were given to Mrs. Ellisvale by Mr. Hawthorne.
00:36:27What? This wine is from Lucien to Alisa? There must have been a mistake. Check it again.
00:36:33How could Mr. Hawthorne possibly send wine to Alisa?
00:36:36Yes, this is indeed the wine sent from Mr. Lucien to Ms. Vale.
00:36:42How could this be? What makes Alisa so special that Lucien would treat her like this?
00:36:49Why are you all so silent now? You were so talkative and confident before.
00:36:55Is it because you're embarrassed?
00:36:56Okay, Amelia. Yeah, like I said, I don't need to lie.
00:37:00Mr. Hawthorne would never send wine to this bitch. Could it be...
00:37:05Wait. What now, Lavinia?
00:37:08Alisa, you really are desperate for attention, aren't you?
00:37:12After being exposed about the car keys, you've resorted to hiring actors to put on a show for us.
00:37:19Oh my god. Lavinia, you really are imaginative. You should become a screenwriter.
00:37:24Really got a hit on your hands.
00:37:25What? Are you getting agitated because I've uncovered the truth and here I am stating the facts?
00:37:31How is that imagination?
00:37:34Lavinia, I think you've got a point.
00:37:37After all, lowly people are always so desperate for attention, right?
00:37:47Summer makes a valid point. Mr. Hawthorne and Alisa are from completely different worlds.
00:37:52How could he possibly send her wine? Go home and pay your actors.
00:37:58Elisa, I think there's something you should know. If we hadn't gone to the same high school together,
00:38:04you wouldn't have any chance of sitting here with us, having a meal, let alone getting to know
00:38:10Mr. Hawthorne. You all have gone too far. This is supposed to be a class reunion party and you're
00:38:16all targeting Elisa. What are you trying to do? What are we trying to do?
00:38:22She needs to know her place instead of deceiving us with lies again and again. How dare she do it and
00:38:28not admit it. Yes, Summer, as the saying goes, ugly people make more trouble, but poor people make even
00:38:37more trouble. I couldn't care less what you think of me, but I didn't hire actors for this. We are all
00:38:44regular employees of the hotel. We cannot be hired as private actors. You must have misunderstood.
00:38:49Elisa, you really are hopeless. You found some actors and got two bottles of
00:39:04fake wine thinking you could show off at the reunion party.
00:39:08This cheap wine is only good for making noise when it chatters.
00:39:21With this order from President Hawthorne, I don't have to worry about my performance
00:39:29for the rest of the month. I think I'm going to make Ms. Vale a VVVIP customer from now on.
00:39:38Hello? No good, Mr. Carlos. Ms. Vale is in trouble.
00:39:42What? I'm coming over.
00:39:45Damaging someone else's property? Lavinia,
00:39:47you have never been one to consider the consequences of doing whatever Summer tells you to do.
00:39:51How much can a big bottle of wine be worth?
00:39:55I'll pay her, and I'll pay for the remaining one, and I'll just buy them all so that she can smash them for fun.
00:40:05You're disgusting. We're ashamed to have you as a classmate. You don't deserve to be at our party.
00:40:11Security! Where's the security?
00:40:13I'm my asses.
00:40:14Well, we don't know who this woman is, and I don't know how she got in here, and I want her out of here.
00:40:20Well, this is Summer Heart, fiance of the president of Hawthorne's group.
00:40:26And having her here, we don't want to have any trouble.
00:40:30What is it?
00:40:31What are you doing?
00:40:35What is going on here?
00:40:38Who gave you permission to expel my esteemed guest?
00:40:45Did you just call Elisa an esteemed guest?
00:40:48Yes, I did.
00:40:50In fact, Miss Vale is one of our VIP customers.
00:40:57That can't be possible.
00:40:58Her family went bankrupt years ago.
00:41:01She probably can't even afford to pay her rent.
00:41:03Let me correct myself.
00:41:06Not only is Miss Vale our esteemed guest, not only is she our VVVIP customer,
00:41:13but the wine was arranged to be sent by President Hawthorne to her.
00:41:18Does my word count?
00:41:20Does it have any weight around here?
00:41:22Mr. Carlos, there must be some mistake.
00:41:25Well, the wine was personally arranged by President Hawthorne's personal assistant,
00:41:32Ronin.
00:41:32How can there possibly be a mistake?
00:41:36But Summer, how could Mr. Hawthorne be sending wine to Elisa?
00:41:40How am I supposed to know what Lucian is thinking?
00:41:43You said that you would pay me back tenfold.
00:41:47Forget the tenfold, just pay me the original price.
00:41:49Is Lucian going to be angry with me for this?
00:41:54Whatever, let's just enjoy this moment.
00:41:56What's going on?
00:41:57Did President Hawthorne really send the wine to Elisa?
00:42:00I have no idea.
00:42:02Maybe Summer is just lying and she's being presumptuous about Mr. Hawthorne.
00:42:08So Summer, what's the best way for you to pay me back for this?
00:42:10You should have seen the look on Summer's face when she tried to swipe her card.
00:42:18It was hilarious.
00:42:20Oh my gosh, today we finally showed her who's boss.
00:42:23I know, but I feel like everyone knows that Summer is Lucian's dream girl.
00:42:28When he finds out I, the placeholder wife, am totally getting the...
00:42:32Legally, you are Mr. Hawthorne's wife.
00:42:34You are literally the President's wife.
00:42:36You have the high ground.
00:42:38What are you so afraid of?
00:42:39Come on, let's go drink and celebrate.
00:42:42You actually want me to drink right now?
00:42:43Yes.
00:42:44No.
00:42:45Yes.
00:42:45No.
00:42:46Come on.
00:42:47I ain't okay, it's my heart.
00:42:54Amelia, be honest with me, okay?
00:42:57What is this?
00:42:58I don't...
00:42:59I don't understand why Lucian wanted to marry me.
00:43:02I don't know, it's just...
00:43:04I'm starting to feel like maybe he...
00:43:06Like...
00:43:06Is he actually someone...
00:43:09Hey Lisa, I have something I have to attend to, so I'm going to be leaving now.
00:43:14What?
00:43:15Wait, no.
00:43:17Are you gossiping about me behind my back while you're drunk?
00:43:23Are you real or am I dreaming?
00:43:26Well, no, you're not dreaming.
00:43:28I'm actually here to take you home.
00:43:29Big gossip?
00:43:31No.
00:43:32I don't want to go home.
00:43:33I want to drink more.
00:43:34Hey Lisa, you've had too much.
00:43:37You're gonna have a headache tomorrow.
00:43:39Oh, who knew Mr. Hawthorne was so gentle and thoughtful.
00:43:42Come on.
00:43:43I can't walk, so I could just live here.
00:43:48Okay, I will carry you back then.
00:43:52Come on.
00:43:53All right, ready?
00:43:55Three, two, one.
00:43:57Okay, here we go.
00:44:05Mr. Hawthorne, here I am, working overtime in the middle of the...
00:44:10Driving at this speed, it's going to be sort of easy.
00:44:13Lucian, why did you marry me?
00:44:18Lucian, why did you marry me?
00:44:20Actually, I've been in love with you for 10 years, ever since I first saw you.
00:44:27Back then, the internal struggles in the Hawthorne family were severe, and my father was also...
00:44:35Lucian?
00:44:36Let your father rest in peace.
00:44:41You're all I've got now.
00:44:47Anyway, I didn't dare to show you even a sliver of my feelings for you.
00:44:52But the hatred between our parents made me hide my feelings for you.
00:44:55Could you give me a chance?
00:44:59Yeah.
00:45:01Well, I'll tell you this another time.
00:45:06Elisa always goes against me, making me embarrassed.
00:45:12She's the worst!
00:45:14I have an idea that doesn't require us to get involved and can make Elisa leave Mr. Hawthorne.
00:45:20Oh?
00:45:21What is it?
00:45:24What is it?
00:45:24Everyone knows that Mr. Hawthorne is devoted to his mother.
00:45:28If we tell her about Elisa seducing Mr. Hawthorne, then...
00:45:34Good idea.
00:45:36Mia is the matriarch of the Hawthorne family.
00:45:39She's very clever.
00:45:41But she never got involved in the family business, and she's lived in seclusion abroad for years.
00:45:47Even I haven't spoken to her.
00:45:49All we need to do is send an anonymous text message to Mrs. Hawthorne.
00:45:55Then we just need to wait for Elisa to be expelled from the Hawthorne family.
00:46:05I went through great lengths to get this, but I never contacted her because I didn't have a reason.
00:46:11Do it for me.
00:46:13When Elisa is dealt with, you will be rewarded.
00:46:17It's my pleasure to help you, Miss Hart.
00:46:23I just hope that when you become the president's wife, you won't forget me.
00:46:30Of course not.
00:46:38Patriarch Hawthorne, you received an anonymous message on your phone.
00:46:43What does it say?
00:46:44Mrs. Hawthorne is fixing our mess around, Mr. Hawthorne.
00:46:47She turned him so much that he's been ignoring his Hawthorne group affairs.
00:46:55Book me a flight. I need to go back immediately.
00:46:58Oh my god.
00:47:02Are we being late again today?
00:47:04Ow! Ow! Ow!
00:47:04Ow!
00:47:05Oh my god! I'm so sorry.
00:47:08I'm so sorry.
00:47:09You need to pay for this.
00:47:10Ow! Ow!
00:47:11Damn it. It was you that bumped into me and it was just a light touch.
00:47:14I have no idea how you must have fallen like that.
00:47:16Are you trying to leave me?
00:47:18Because I don't know what's the matter with your generation.
00:47:20I'm having no respect for the elderly.
00:47:23What? How did I-
00:47:24Ow!
00:47:24Okay. Here, can I help you get up first?
00:47:29Yeah.
00:47:30Well, are you going to help me up?
00:47:34Are you okay?
00:47:34No, I am not okay. My leg really hurts.
00:47:37I don't think I'm going to be able to walk.
00:47:39You need to take responsibility for this.
00:47:40Ow!
00:47:41How can a young girl be so bad?
00:47:43She hits somebody, doesn't want to take responsibility.
00:47:46She looks good, but she's ugly on the inside.
00:47:49No, no, no. The truth is that-
00:47:51Never mind.
00:47:52Okay, uh, ma'am, do you have your family's contact information?
00:47:56I can help you reach out to them.
00:47:58Family?
00:48:01Who are my family?
00:48:04I don't remember.
00:48:07You don't remember who your family is?
00:48:10Uh, I don't remember anything.
00:48:13What do I do?
00:48:14You don't remember where you live?
00:48:15I don't remember anything.
00:48:17Okay.
00:48:17What do I do?
00:48:18I- How about I take you to the hospital and then to a police station?
00:48:24No, no, no, no, no.
00:48:26I'm not going to a hospital or a police station.
00:48:28I don't trust anybody.
00:48:30Oh, no.
00:48:31I'm going to be late.
00:48:32But there's the weekly department meeting today.
00:48:34I can't take leave.
00:48:37Okay, uh, ma'am, since you're not going anywhere,
00:48:40how about I take you to my company office?
00:48:43And then after work, I'll help you find your family.
00:48:46Fine.
00:48:47Because you need to take responsibility for this.
00:48:49You cannot leave my side.
00:48:51Okay, okay.
00:48:52What is going on?
00:48:54Ouch!
00:48:55What?
00:48:56My mom's returned home?
00:48:57Yes, Mr. Hawthorne.
00:48:58According to Matriarch Robinson's assistant,
00:49:00Matriarch Robinson received an anonymous text message about you
00:49:03and rushed back into the country.
00:49:04What was the text?
00:49:05It said, Mr. Hawthorne, you've been enchanted by a seductress.
00:49:09She's always had a temper.
00:49:10Okay, I'm going to attend the business meeting personally.
00:49:13Are you afraid the Matriarch Robinson will suddenly come to our company?
00:49:16I mean, yeah, unless there's some unexpected twist.
00:49:19She'll probably be there.
00:49:20All right, Mr. Hawthorne.
00:49:21I'll arrange it right away.
00:49:25Mom, please don't scare off the Wi-Fi I finally got.
00:49:30How did the matter about Matriarch Robinson go?
00:49:33Rest assured, Ms. Hart.
00:49:35It's said that Matriarch Robinson was furious upon hearing the news
00:49:39and returned home immediately.
00:49:41Really?
00:49:42Then Alisa will be out of here soon.
00:49:45Yes.
00:49:46Congratulations in advance, Ms. Hart.
00:49:49Let's go.
00:49:50There's a weekly meeting of the business department
00:49:52and Lucian will be there personally.
00:49:55We can't afford to make a mistake.
00:49:58Um, Amelia's gone on a work trip,
00:49:59so you can sit in her spot while she's gone.
00:50:01If, if you get bored, you can just play on my phone.
00:50:08Okay, and we have to keep our voices down because people are working.
00:50:12Okay, I just want to know if I can play with this.
00:50:14Everyone, the weekly meeting is about to begin.
00:50:17Alisa, why did you bring a cleaner to work?
00:50:20Alisa really treats the company as her home,
00:50:23being in anyone she likes.
00:50:25Seriously, so filthy.
00:50:27It's disgusting just looking at them.
00:50:33Alisa, our entire department is filled up with work, and you?
00:50:38If we have to delay our work, are you going to take responsibility for that?
00:50:42Ms. Hart, this woman might have some trouble with her memory,
00:50:45so I'm only bringing her here temporarily.
00:50:48I was going to help her find her family after work,
00:50:50and if she could just sit here for the time being,
00:50:52I promise that she won't disturb anybody.
00:50:54You mean you brought this old hag in off the street, and she's also sick?
00:51:00I think you're crazy.
00:51:01Picking up an old hag like this?
00:51:03Reeking of poverty, stinking up the whole office?
00:51:06Where did you find her? In a sewer?
00:51:09What if this old hag isn't just mentally ill,
00:51:11but also could infect us all with some disease?
00:51:14Yeah, Ms. Hart, I really think we should call a cleaner later
00:51:17to disinfect everywhere this lady's been.
00:51:19How could all of you be so cruel?
00:51:21Don't you all have families too?
00:51:24What if one of them had lost their memory and needed your help?
00:51:27This girl, she's interesting.
00:51:29I'm not the one who's sick.
00:51:30You're sick!
00:51:33Disgusting.
00:51:34Elisa, our company has rules and regulations.
00:51:38It's not a place for you to show your kindness.
00:51:40Get this old hag out of here now.
00:51:44Get this old hag out of here now.
00:51:49Ms. Hart, there is nothing in our company policy that discourages helping somebody in need.
00:51:53In fact, it encourages us to do so.
00:51:55Oh, there isn't.
00:51:56Well, now there is.
00:52:00Do you have a problem?
00:52:01Ms. Hart is a senior leader in our company.
00:52:03She can represent our president, and now she just happened to add another company rule.
00:52:08Even if she asks security to drag you out, there's nothing you can do.
00:52:12Understand?
00:52:14How come the employees of the business department are like this?
00:52:18Lucian will be here soon from the business department.
00:52:21Elisa, you have two minutes.
00:52:23If you don't get this old hag out of here, I will fire you.
00:52:27You can go beg on the street with her.
00:52:29Maybe then you'll make more money than you do now.
00:52:33Summer, you are really pushing it.
00:52:35Tell me, what else can you do besides flaunt your authority?
00:52:38I'm reporting you to Mr. Hawthorne.
00:52:41As a low-level employee, you have contradicted me one too many times.
00:52:45And now, you dare go see Mr. Hawthorne?
00:52:48You're fired.
00:52:51Two years.
00:52:52Two years away from this company, and I never thought that the business department
00:52:56of the Hawthorne Group would decay into the state.
00:53:02Elisa will not be fired.
00:53:04You will.
00:53:07You will.
00:53:10Matthew, did I just hear this old hag say she's gonna fire us?
00:53:14She has a problem with her brain, that's why she's talking crazy.
00:53:17Miss Hart is our president's wife-to-be.
00:53:20Firing her?
00:53:21Too ridiculous.
00:53:23Besides memory loss, is she also crazy?
00:53:26Why are they saying president's wife?
00:53:30Isn't it you?
00:53:31Are all of you quite finished?
00:53:33I can't believe how shallow you are.
00:53:35You are kind and righteous.
00:53:37Do you never use Lucian's identity to gain power?
00:53:41But you?
00:53:42Okay ma'am, it's okay.
00:53:43I'm going to help you find your family.
00:53:45Let's go.
00:53:45Why do we need to leave?
00:53:46Why don't they leave first?
00:53:48Fine, since you're determined to cling to us.
00:53:51Matthew, get this old hag out of here right now.
00:53:54You've got guts.
00:54:04I'll see who dares to kick me out of here today.
00:54:14You actually dare to hit me?
00:54:17Miss Hart?
00:54:18Alyssa, this woman attacked my subordinate.
00:54:21I could have her sent to a mental hospital.
00:54:24You don't have the authority.
00:54:25Of course I do.
00:54:26She hit my subordinate.
00:54:28I can reasonably deduce she has some mental issues.
00:54:30How many times do I have to tell you?
00:54:32Yes, this woman is clearly sick,
00:54:33but naturally I'm going to find her family to let them handle it.
00:54:37If you and Matthew hadn't instigated this,
00:54:39none of this would have happened.
00:54:41This woman's actions can only be described as self-defense.
00:54:44Yeah, I think you're the one who's crazy.
00:54:46You don't respect the elderly.
00:54:47You're not qualified to be a leader.
00:54:49I don't know why your company's higher-ups even chose you.
00:54:55Oh, are you angry?
00:55:01Matthew, make these two disappear from my sight!
00:55:03Security, throw both of them out of Hawthorne Group.
00:55:09Whitney here, they can't drive you away.
00:55:12I tell you, I am...
00:55:14Summer, what are you doing here?
00:55:18Summer, what are you doing here?
00:55:21Oh my god, why does Lucian come to the business department every day?
00:55:25Fine, I guess we'll have another showdown.
00:55:28Explain.
00:55:29Well, it's like this.
00:55:30Elisa brought this woman in off the street, who smells terrible,
00:55:33and insisted on having her in the office,
00:55:35which was disrupting everyone's work, so I'm only thinking of the company.
00:55:40Yes, Mr. Hawthorne.
00:55:41What if she has some contagious disease and infects everyone?
00:55:44I take full responsibility for this incident.
00:55:47If the company wishes, I can hand in my resignation.
00:55:52Hawthorne Group is not an impersonal company.
00:55:55Elisa's done well.
00:55:57From today forward, they'll be promoted to team leader,
00:56:00and oversee projects as a reward.
00:56:02Mr. Hawthorne, I'm...
00:56:04I'm afraid I'm not qualified for this position.
00:56:07I believe everyone here knows your abilities well.
00:56:12As for you, you can go to HR, and they'll handle your resignation.
00:56:18He is the backbone of the business department.
00:56:21If you fire him, there'll be no elites left.
00:56:23Summer, you've managed the business department into a mess.
00:56:25You're responsible for that.
00:56:27I promise to manage the business department better.
00:56:30This won't happen again.
00:56:32Matthew, why have you not apologized to this madame and Miss Vale yet?
00:56:39Matthew, why have you not apologized to this madame and Miss Vale yet?
00:56:46I'm sorry.
00:56:47Please forgive me.
00:56:49Why are you apologizing first?
00:56:50This one almost just put me into a mental hospital.
00:56:53You old hag, how dare you ask me to apologize.
00:56:57Miss Hart?
00:56:59Apologize.
00:57:02Sorry.
00:57:03I'm sorry, I can't hear you.
00:57:10I was wrong.
00:57:12I'm sorry.
00:57:14And you guys?
00:57:18I'm sorry.
00:57:19Sorry.
00:57:23Have I been misunderstanding him all this time?
00:57:25Could it be?
00:57:26Well, that's the end of that matter.
00:57:28I'll take care of this lady and help her find her family.
00:57:36Listen, why did you call me over?
00:57:37What if Elisa finds out?
00:57:39Well, what exactly are you trying to do?
00:57:41I want to test my daughter-in-law.
00:57:44Haven't you tested her enough today?
00:57:46She's great.
00:57:47You saw that.
00:57:48Oh, Lucien.
00:57:55You're quite loyal, aren't you?
00:57:58It's enough.
00:58:01Fine.
00:58:03Look, um, Elisa is a very good girl,
00:58:06but it seems she doesn't even know that you like her.
00:58:10Nor does anyone else know that she's your wife.
00:58:13Why are you keeping this marriage so secretive?
00:58:16I don't know how to tell her.
00:58:19I'm afraid that if we make our relationship public,
00:58:22pressure will be too much for her.
00:58:23Lucien, when did you become such a coward?
00:58:27Look, if you like her, just confess boldly.
00:58:32You don't want to wait till Elisa falls for some other guy before you feel regret, do you?
00:58:38Regret what?
00:58:42Nothing.
00:58:43Please, come sit.
00:58:46Elisa, I'm sorry I was deceptive earlier.
00:58:53I... I'm actually Lucien's mother.
00:58:57What?
00:59:00Please, let me explain.
00:59:02Um, a few days ago I got an anonymous text saying that some woman was trying to seduce Lucien,
00:59:09and I got afraid that he might get tricked.
00:59:13Anyway, Elisa, can you please forgive me?
00:59:20Yes, Mrs. Hawthorne, I understand. You're just looking out for your son.
00:59:23But I am concerned that the person who sent that text must have had bad intentions.
00:59:28I have an idea you sent him. I am.
00:59:30Good.
00:59:31And Elisa, I heard that Lucien plans on taking you to a very fancy dinner tonight.
00:59:37Okay.
00:59:39There's actually something I want to talk to you about.
00:59:41Lucien, why aren't you eating?
00:59:55Yeah, of course.
01:00:01Elisa, what do you want to ask me?
01:00:03If you want a divorce, it's not going to happen.
01:00:06Why would you think I want a divorce?
01:00:14Okay.
01:00:15I've been meaning to ask you.
01:00:18You've liked Summer for 10 years.
01:00:21I mean, why would you marry me? Why protect me at every turn?
01:00:26Hold on.
01:00:28You think I've liked Summer for 10 years?
01:00:30Judging by his reaction, he must have been caught off guard.
01:00:34Elisa, you're being too presumptuous.
01:00:37Seriously, why would I have liked her for 10 years?
01:00:39Elisa, I've liked you for 10 years.
01:00:44What?
01:00:46How could that possibly be true?
01:00:47From the first day we met, I fell for you.
01:00:51But because of the conflict between our parents, I chose to get them.
01:00:56I wanted to show you that I cared for you, but I couldn't.
01:01:01I was afraid that it would put you in danger.
01:01:04I'm really sorry, Elisa.
01:01:07All these years, I've suppressed my feelings for you.
01:01:11Fought tooth and nail to be the head of the Hawthorne family.
01:01:15And now it's taken me a decade to fully stand by you like this.
01:01:21So why now?
01:01:25And now it's taken me a decade to fully stand by you like this.
01:01:29So why now?
01:01:31I was afraid if I told you, you didn't like me,
01:01:34and I wouldn't even be colleagues anymore.
01:01:38So what's wrong?
01:01:39So when you sat next to me all those years ago,
01:01:41it wasn't because you didn't like your food?
01:01:47Hey, I don't really like this.
01:01:58Yeah, I'm really sorry.
01:02:00I couldn't show you my feelings in the proper way.
01:02:05But then why did you write some of that love letter back then?
01:02:10One love letter.
01:02:11I only remember delivering a party invitation to her from my parents.
01:02:16Well, why are all your passwords Summer's birthday?
01:02:19You mean 0903?
01:02:22What does that have to do with Summer?
01:02:24I don't even know her birthday.
01:02:25So then what's 0903 to you?
01:02:27Elisa 0903, September 3rd.
01:02:30It's the day we first met.
01:02:33So it was...
01:02:34It was all just a misunderstanding?
01:02:36Lisa, I love you.
01:02:44I know I tricked you into marrying me,
01:02:47but my feelings for you are absolutely true.
01:02:50So can you try to accept me?
01:02:53I know that our marriage started as a contract, but it feels real to me now.
01:03:00I love you.
01:03:04I want to be with you.
01:03:06I want to be with you now and I want to be with you when we're old and...
01:03:10I love you.
01:03:20You're finally mine.
01:03:24Yours.
01:03:30Hey.
01:03:35From now on, we're true husband and wife.
01:03:39We don't have to keep our relationship secret in front of our colleagues anymore.
01:03:41Okay.
01:03:47Lucian, I...
01:03:49Elise, you...
01:03:50Summer, I'd like you to meet my wife.
01:03:53What?
01:03:55Elisa and I have actually been married for a long time,
01:03:57so you don't have to send those divisive text messages to my mom anymore.
01:04:00We all like Elisa.
01:04:02So no matter how much you try to sow discord between us,
01:04:05it's never going to work.
01:04:06What text messages? I...
01:04:08I have the evidence, Summer.
01:04:13Now, considering the relationship between our families,
01:04:16I'm going to ask you to go ahead and submit your resignation from your team.
01:04:20As for everyone else,
01:04:22you all get off an hour early today.
01:04:24And you're invited to dinner with my wife.
01:04:28Yay!
