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. I just received an order from the court. Since we are unable to repay the huge debt your father owed, her house will be auctioned off to pay off the debt. We must move out of the house now.
00:01:50the house now. Don't worry, I'm going to be right there.
00:02:01Oh my god. Mom, are you okay?
00:02:05I'm fine, honey. I'm so sorry I couldn't save the house.
00:02:13Don't worry. As long as we're together, we'll get through this difficult time.
00:02:18I'm sorry.
00:02:22Is there anything else in there? No, this isn't.
00:02:28One second, okay? I'll be right back. Hello?
00:02:32Lisa, where are you? Don't you remember we were supposed to meet in the conference room
00:02:37at nine? Manager Smith's gone crazy looking for you. I'm so sorry, but something unexpected
00:02:42happened at home and um, if you could please just tell management that-
00:02:45Hello? No, no, no, no, no, no. Fuck, fuck.
00:02:53I just lost my house and now I'm going to lose my job too? Where am I going to find a million dollars?
00:03:03Lisa? Why are you crying?
00:03:07Um, Mr. Hawthorne, what are you doing here?
00:03:12Oh, I'm actually here for you. What? I need a marriage partner.
00:03:18Again, what? I need you to be my wife. Give it a thought.
00:03:25Mr. Hawthorne, I was really drunk last night and I can't remember how everything happened after, but you really don't-
00:03:32Look, I know some unfortunate things have happened in your family recently.
00:03:36This card has more than enough on it to pay off all your debts and make sure that your house doesn't
00:03:44get auctioned off. If you agree, we can get the marriage certificate right now.
00:03:57Why do you want to help me?
00:03:58I told you, I need a wife. And you're the most suitable person.
00:04:03Okay. It's for my family. I have no other way.
00:04:17Mr. Hawthorne, thank you so much for helping me. I promise I will pay you back every cent as
00:04:23soon as I can. You don't pay me back more than happy.
00:04:26I'm gonna get back to work then.
00:04:29Uh, Ronan will actually take you back. And I'll give you my home address so you can move in tonight.
00:04:36Your home address?
00:04:39We're legally married. What's wrong with Livingard?
00:04:42Right. This is a deal. I can't just take the money and give nothing in return.
00:04:47I can get myself to work. And I'll be back on time tonight.
00:04:59Elisa, you're finally mine.
00:05:06Oh my god! I'm so sorry. I was reading and I didn't see you there.
00:05:10No worries. It's fine.
00:05:16Can I have your name?
00:05:17I'm Elisa.
00:05:20Yo! Never knew Mr. Hawthorne would have such a silly smile moment.
00:05:25Alright.
00:05:29It's real? If your mom finds out you married a Cinderella.
00:05:33Alright, give it back. Then watch your mouth.
00:05:35You really married Mr. Hawthorne?
00:05:42It's just a contract marriage.
00:05:43Oh, shh. I'll explain it to you later.
00:05:46Mrs. Elisa Hawthorne.
00:05:48You are the CEO's wife, so where is my pay rate?
00:05:51I couldn't help.
00:05:53We've known each other since middle school.
00:05:55I don't think he actually likes me.
00:05:56Plus, everyone in the company knows who he actually wants to be with.
00:06:02Miss Hartha's back!
00:06:05Hello, everyone.
00:06:19Please, help yourself to have some cake.
00:06:22Thank you, Miss Hart. You 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.
00:06:36Hey, when 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, Miss 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.
00:06:55Please don't talk to me.
00:06:59Okay.
00:07:08Okay.
00:07:09Why aren't you coming in?
00:07:21Why aren't you coming in?
00:07:35Why aren't you coming in?
00:07:38Mr. Hawthorne, I think that we should talk-
00:07:39Call me.
00:08:01What should I do?
00:08:02Am I supposed to sleep with him tonight?
00:08:05I know that we did that before, but I was drunk.
00:08:12If I turn him down, will he get angry?
00:08:14But if I don't-
00:08:16Melissa, you okay?
00:08:19I'm fine.
00:08:20Thank you for asking.
00:08:21Melissa, I'm-
00:08:35I'm not ready.
00:08:36I was just going to turn off the light.
00:08:40What did you think I was going to do?
00:08:42Oh yeah, no.
00:08:44Don't get me wrong, I just meant I wasn't ready to sleep yet.
00:08:46Melissa, I don't want some one night stand.
00:08:52I want to be your everything.
00:08:58Matthew, why did the negotiations with the Sunlight Group fail?
00:09:01It's Elisa's fault.
00:09:03If she hadn't skipped work that day, we could have succeeded.
00:09:06How is it her fault?
00:09:08Please give me a reasonable explanation.
00:09:10I heard someone saw Mr. Hawthorne entering her hotel room
00:09:16the night before Elisa skipped work.
00:09:18What?
00:09:19What did you say to me?
00:09:21It is absolutely true.
00:09:22Not 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 subordinate's 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.
00:10:02Elisa, is this how you do your job?
00:10:05Look what trouble you brought us.
00:10:06It is because of you that we lost the project with Sunlight Group.
00:10:10You're fired.
00:10:12Mr. Clark, I was only in charge of the initial budget,
00:10:14not the negotiations.
00:10:16I don't understand how this could be my fault.
00:10:18Did you forget about your unexcused absence last time?
00:10:23Did you forget about your unexcused absence last time?
00:10:27That's because something unexpected happened at home,
00:10:29but I called in for a leave of after-
00:10:30So what?
00:10:31We needed you last minute and you weren't there.
00:10:34Now that the project has failed, if you're not to blame,
00:10:37who else would it be?
00:10:40I was absent that day, yes.
00:10:42But 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.
00:10:54What did you write in the project budget?
00:10:55No, no, no, no, this isn't right.
00:11:01I wrote 50 million.
00:11:03How 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.
00:11:23How could she make such an error?
00:11:24Keep it down.
00:11:26Can't you see?
00:11:27They're just trying to find someone to take responsibility.
00:11:29Wait.
00:11:33I have evidence to prove that my budget was correct.
00:11:36Evidence?
00:11:38Then why don't you show it to everyone?
00:11:42I have the dated source files on my computer that can show that I have the right numbers.
00:11:47No, no, they were right here.
00:11:49How could they be gone?
00:11:50Elisa, are you joking?
00:11:52Where's your so-called evidence?
00:11:55Elisa, 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?
00:12:06I've seen the budget Elisa made.
00:12:08We all checked it as a team.
00:12:12Obviously, 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.
00:12:22If anyone else can vouch for Elisa, I can give her a second chance.
00:12:27Anyone?
00:12:30Weren't you there when we checked that time?
00:12:32I 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?
00:12:49This 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.
00:13:16I'll step down from my position.
00:13:18But 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.
00:13:24The 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
00:13:31and there are computer backend logs.
00:13:33All of these will prove that my budget was correct.
00:13:35And I will investigate this until the end.
00:13:39There is no need for an investigation.
00:13:42You have already been fired.
00:13:46Since you refused to leave, security?
00:13:49Drag 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.
00:14:07Summer?
00:14:09What are you doing?
00:14:11Why is he here?
00:14:15Could 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?
00:14:24Am 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.
00:14:40Fired 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, tried to fire me, and then called security.
00:14:55Is that within the lines of regulation?
00:14:57Elisa, how dare you question company regulations in front of Mr. Hawthorne?
00:15:02Lucian, see? She won't admit her mistakes, and she even questions you in public.
00:15:09I've gotten out really fired.
00:15:13Elisa actually talked back to Mr. Hawthorne. She has to be fired now.
00:15:21I'm actually pitying her, no matter what.
00:15:23Pitying her? You're an employee too. Mind your own business.
00:15:27Elisa, you sure are bald, aren't you?
00:15:31Elisa, don't you know what Mr. Hawthorne means? Hurry up and leave.
00:15:36Of course Lucian is on Summer's side. I'm just his wife out of nowhere.
00:15:42Surely I'm no match for his lover.
00:15:51Hold on.
00:15:51Did 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.
00:16:13Lucian, 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?
00:16:21But 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,
00:16:34but you insisted that the results were clear.
00:16:36Apologize to Mr. Hawthorne right now.
00:16:38Yes, 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.
00:16:48Elisa, may I have a few words with you?
00:16:51I know.
00:16:52I know.
00:16:52I have a few words with you.
00:16:53I have a few words with you.
00:16:54I am so sorry that you were bothered.
00:16:57But you won't be for the next time
00:17:10Mr. Hawthorne if this is about the project and I'm so sorry that you were bothered. Do you think that's why I brought you here?
00:17:17Do you think that's why I brought you here next time something like that happens come see me and let me handle it
00:17:24You're so busy. I didn't want to bother you
00:17:28We're married
00:17:32You can do whatever you want
00:17:34We're at the office. Don't fool around
00:17:37Fool around?
00:17:39Well, that's 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
00:17:51That's not necessarily what I mean
00:17:53Okay
00:17:54Well, if that's all Mr. Hawthorne I guess I'll be going back to work
00:18:05Elisa
00:18:06Remember my words
00:18:08Stay away from that girl
00:18:15Elisa when you were in Mr. Hawthorne's office
00:18:17Emilia
00:18:18I can't really understand the data over here. Can you help me please?
00:18:22Miss Hart
00:18:29May I help you?
00:18:31You are still under investigation
00:18:33Now 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
00:18:40Your current mission is to go downstairs and fetch me a cup of coffee
00:18:44Can't you see the trash is full?
00:18:46Clean it
00:18:48Miss Hart
00:18:49I'm an analyst
00:18:50I'm not an intern
00:18:51What?
00:18:53Are you defying your superior?
00:18:55Someone is really ignorant
00:18:57She hasn't been clarified yet
00:18:58Now she's defying her superior
00:19:00Does she think she owns the company?
00:19:02Right?
00:19:04Miss 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 Miss Hart with the trifle
00:19:13Stop being ungrateful
00:19:15Elisa, I can have you fired for defying your superior
00:19:19So 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
00:19:31I'll do it
00:19:39Better to bend than break, huh?
00:19:41It doesn't matter
00:19:42Let's see how long you can keep tolerating
00:19:47Miss Hart?
00:19:49Your coffee?
00:19:50Hand it to me
00:20:00Oh my god, this coffee is so hot
00:20:02It almost burned me alive
00:20:03Oh my god, I'm so sorry
00:20:05Are you okay?
00:20:06Don't you know I only drink ice americano?
00:20:08Who hired you anyway?
00:20:09I'm so sorry, I will go buy you one right now
00:20:11Can't you see there's coffee on the floor?
00:20:13Clean it up
00:20:14Now
00:20:21Who told you you could mop the floor with that?
00:20:24If you damage the floors, can you afford to pay for them?
00:20:27How exactly would you like me to mop the floor, Miss Hart?
00:20:29With a cloth on your hands and knees?
00:20:33Inch by inch
00:20:35Sorry, don't you think you're going a little too far?
00:20:38What? Can't handle it?
00:20:40You could always quit
00:20:41Well, by that I guess you mean I should act like your wife all the time?
00:20:53Even while we're at work
00:20:56Mr. Hawthorne, there's an upcoming online meeting with an overseas company
00:21:00Uh-huh
00:21:01Hey, is the business department next to the meeting room?
00:21:05Yes, Mr. Hawthorne
00:21:06Let's pay you to visit first
00:21:08He was just departing Mrs. Hawthorne and he's already so eager to see her
00:21:11He's completely in law for that, I'm sorry
00:21:16Miss Hart, would you please lift your foot?
00:21:18Oh, I'm sorry
00:21:23I didn't do it on purpose
00:21:26Elisa, when you were seducing Lucian when I was away, have you ever thought of today?
00:21:32I didn't seduce him
00:21:35You didn't!
00:21:36Do you really think I wouldn't know because I was away?
00:21:39You don't want to seduce Lucian, then you must be prepared for my repentance
00:21:44Summer, what the hell are you doing?
00:21:48Summer, what the hell are you doing?
00:21:49Lucian!
00:21:50Elisa, are you alright?
00:21:51Elisa is still on their investigation, right?
00:21:53She's not suitable for working on company projects, so I had her doing simpler tasks like fetching me coffee
00:22:00But she spilled the coffee on purpose
00:22:02That isn't true
00:22:03It doesn't matter anyway, I don't blame her for it
00:22:05But she insisted on wiping it up
00:22:07I stepped on her by accident
00:22:09I was about to apologize to her
00:22:11Is that so?
00:22:13Elisa, is that actually what happened?
00:22:15Lucian is in love with Summer
00:22:16Even if I told the truth, would he believe me?
00:22:20Yes, it's the truth
00:22:23Come with me to my office
00:22:26Come!
00:22:28Why on earth did Lucian call Elisa to his office again?
00:22:33I must find out
00:22:34Have a seat
00:22:41Your hands hurt
00:22:44You need an advantage
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
00:22:55Alright, let's see
00:22:57You know, Summer is competent
00:23:00But she can be bossy and overbearing
00:23:02I can transfer you to another department
00:23:04If you can't bear her
00:23:06Maybe mine
00:23:08So 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
00:23:20Okay, last step
00:23:25Okay, just don't let this hand touch water for a little bit
00:23:28Thank you, Mr. Hothlin
00:23:31It's just the two of us
00:23:33You can call me by my name
00:23:35Well, we're at work, I thought I shouldn't
00:23:37Yeah, why shouldn't you?
00:23:39Lucian, why did you marry me?
00:23:41And why do you keep defending me?
00:23:43Do you really not know why?
00:23:45We'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?
00:24:00Thank you
00:24:02Bloody Elisa
00:24:04You 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
00:24:15Elisa, I must teach you a lesson this time
00:24:20All right, it's ready
00:24:25How many slices do you want?
00:24:28Mom, what's wrong?
00:24:30Elisa, isn't our house supposed to be auctioned off by the court to pay off our debts?
00:24:37Why hasn't this happened yet?
00:24:38Um...
00:24:40Well...
00:24:42I borrowed some money from a friend to help pay off the debts
00:24:47What friend could afford to lend you so much money at once?
00:24:52Since we went bankrupt, all our old friends have disappeared
00:24:57Well, Mom...
00:25:00You don't have to worry about it
00:25:02It's okay
00:25:03Elisa...
00:25:04Hey!
00:25:09Elisa, what took you so long?
00:25:11What's up?
00:25:12There's a school reunion party this weekend
00:25:14They notified us in the group, but...
00:25:16I figured you haven't read it yet since you didn't respond
00:25:19So I'm just giving you a heads up
00:25:21What? It's been ages
00:25:23Why 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
00:25:30How about we grab a drink tonight? I know a good place
00:25:40I actually have plans tonight
00:25:42If you don't have anything else, you can leave
00:25:45Lucian, it's been so long since-
00:25:46Summer, I said I'm busy
00:25:49Please leave
00:25:53Hold on, will you be at the high school reunion?
00:25:55Summer, how many ways do I have to say this?
00:25:58I'm busy! Leave!
00:26:00Lucian, you have to be so gentle with me
00:26:03But ever since Elisa came
00:26:05You'll become colder and colder
00:26:07Elisa
00:26:09I won't let you off easily
00:26:15I wonder if Lucian received the invitation to the reunion
00:26:18Is he going?
00:26:20Something on your mind?
00:26:21It's not a big deal, but there's the high school reunion party later
00:26:26Are you going?
00:26:28Are you going?
00:26:29I don't know
00:26:31Emilia made a good point that we don't really see each other that often
00:26:34Thought it'd be nice to get together
00:26:36Um, you know what?
00:26:38I actually have a meeting
00:26:40I think I'll pass
00:26:42Okay, yeah that's fine
00:26:44I'll send you something else since I can't be there
00:26:46You really don't have to do that
00:26:47I don't have to do that
00:26:48And I know it's far, so
00:26:50Take this
00:26:52Lucian, 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?
00:27:11Come on, take 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
00:27:23Well, thank you then
00:27:29This is a customized version
00:27:31Probably cost millions
00:27:33Jesus, Elisa
00:27:34If it weren't for you, I'd never get a bee in such a luxurious car
00:27:37Seems 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
00:27:44He does treat me well though
00:27:45You know all of his passwords are still Summer's birthday
00:27:49I don't know
00:27:51I'm probably just overthinking
00:27:53Maybe it's a misunderstanding or a coincidence
00:27:57I feel like Mr. Hawthorne is quite cold to Summer, I don't think he's into her
00:28:01No, that's just cause he's trying to keep the down low at work
00:28:05Well, even if he were trying to keep it that way
00:28:09Do you know how that saying goes?
00:28:11We can try to hide our feelings but we forget that our eyes can speak
00:28:15The way he looks at Summer, it doesn't feel right, do you know what I mean?
00:28:19I have absolutely no idea what you mean because you sound crazy
00:28:23You...
00:28:24I'm done
00:28:25You're so mean, I can't
00:28:26Well, we're late so we have to go
00:28:27Okay
00:28:28Hello everyone, long time no see
00:28:38I'm so 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?
00:28:46Did you make us wait on purpose?
00:28:53Did you plan to arrive late deliberately to attract our attention?
00:28:57Elisa, you were still using the same lame tricks as back then, aren't you?
00:29:02Who wants to pay attention to her?
00:29:05After all this year, she still speaks of poverty
00:29:09Hey, don't say such words
00:29:12What if she's doing well and busy with work?
00:29:15Maybe 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?
00:29:21What 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
00:29:39I bet Summer is more than jealous now
00:29:41Summer, come on, sit next to me
00:29:43I've reserved the main seat for you
00:29:46Sorry I'm late
00:29:50Traffic was terrible
00:29:52Never mind, it's our honor to have you
00:29:55Summer, did you buy a new sports car?
00:29:58Not 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
00:30:05A sports car? That's something I can never afford
00:30:09It's not that much
00:30:11It's only a few hundred thousand
00:30:14Wow, Summer surely is rich
00:30:17Such 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 the toy to her
00:30:26She can have as many as she wants
00:30:29A bunch of snot
00:30:31Elisa, what car did you drive here?
00:30:37She? How could a poor girl like her afford a car? She must be taking the subway
00:30:42What, does she race? That's the reason?
00:30:45Elisa, 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
00:30:53But how could 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?
00:31:06Elisa didn't take the subway and it wouldn't matter if she did
00:31:09She drove here
00:31:11In a fancy new limited edition convertible
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
00:31:26Elisa, did you rent a car just to show off at the reunion?
00:31:31It's not rented
00:31:33Not 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
00:31:59Elisa, we're all classmates here, you don't have to pretend to be rich
00:32:03It probably costs half a year's salary to rent that car
00:32:06It's best not to be so vain
00:32:08What's the point of it? It's like the Cinderella, it will revert to its true form after midnight
00:32:13Elisa, don't you find yourself ridiculous?
00:32:16A poor? Can that look disguised to be rich?
00:32:18I was hardy to disappoint you, but it's not rented, it's a gift from my husband
00:32:24Mr. Hawthorne, Mr. Walker's arrived, the meeting can start any time
00:32:29Alright
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
00:32:36Yes, Mr. Hawthorne
00:32:38I was hardy to disappoint you, but it's not rented, it's a gift from my husband
00:32:44Elisa, 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 Elisa? You should know if she's married or not, right?
00:33:02It's not my business, even though I'm her superior, I try not to pry
00:33:08Although I don't think so, if she really had a rich husband, why would she work for so little salary?
00:33:17So, Elisa is lying again? She is so shameless
00:33:22Amelia, I think you should stay with Elisa, she got a bad influence on you
00:33:31And what do you know?
00:33:34Elisa's husband
00:33:36Okay, okay, you guys keep partying
00:33:39Uh, Amelia?
00:33:44Excuse me, these are the wines sent by Mr. Hawthorne
00:33:521982 Lafitte?
00:33:55But we didn't order these wines
00:33:56I'll send you something though, since I can't be there
00:33:59The 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 for Mr. Hawthorne for you
00:34:09Yeah, the only one among us who deserves such attention for Mr. Hawthorne is Summer, who else could it be?
00:34:17This wine is for Mr. Hawthorne too
00:34:19Summer and Mr. Hawthorne have been a perfect match in school
00:34:21And now they are still so affectionate, I wonder if they are going to get married soon
00:34:26Of course, Summer is the future president's wife
00:34:30Unlike someone
00:34:32Oh Elisa, you see, you can never shake my bond with Lucian
00:34:38Alright everyone, since Lucian sent over these wines, let's enjoy them together
00:34:42But Summer, this is 1982 Lafitte
00:34:46I 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 Elisa drink it, she wouldn't know how good the Lafitte is
00:34:58That's true, comparing to her would be a waste
00:35:01You're all wrong, this wine is for me
00:35:05This wine is for me
00:35:06Did I hear that right? You said that this wine was given to you by Mr. Hawthorne?
00:35:12It's hilarious, do you think you're Mrs. Hawthorne?
00:35:16Mrs. Hawthorne? It's Summer
00:35:19Are you daydreaming, Elisa?
00:35:21Do you think you're some Cinderella who married a president?
00:35:24Elisa, are you jealous of me?
00:35:27Not only jealous of my family background and my job
00:35:31Now you're jealous of my relationship with Lucian
00:35:33I want to claim the wines that are given to me
00:35:36Don't you know that even if you try your hardest
00:35:39What's not meant for you will never, never be yours
00:35:43Oh Summer, don't ruin your mood over such a rat in the gutter
00:35:48She's just a clown!
00:35:49How can you be so confident that the wine is for Summer?
00:35:53When Summer and Mr. Hawthorne started aiming, Elisa was somewhere picking up the trash
00:35:59All you ever do is talk
00:36:01Why the hell would I lie about something like this?
00:36:03Who knows? After all, you don't understand how the poor thinks
00:36:06Hey waiter, tell us, who does Mr. Hawthorne give these wines to?
00:36:12Yeah, tell us, who does Mr. Hawthorne give these wines to?
00:36:16So that someone can start daydreaming
00:36:19These wines were given to Mrs. Elisville by Mr. Hawthorne
00:36:24What? This wine is from Lucian to Elisa?
00:36:30There must have been a mistake, check it again
00:36:33How could Mr. Hawthorne possibly send wine to Elisa?
00:36:36Yes, this is indeed the wine sent from Mr. Lucian to Mrs. Vale
00:36:40How could this be?
00:36:41How could this be?
00:36:43What makes Elisa so special that Lucian would treat her like this?
00:36:48Why are you all so silent now?
00:36:50You were so talkative and confident before
00:36:54Is it because you're embarrassed?
00:36:56Okay, Emilia
00:36:57Yeah, like I said, I don't need to lie
00:37:00Mr. Hawthorne would never send wine to this bitch
00:37:03Could it be?
00:37:05Wait
00:37:06What now, Lavinia?
00:37:08Elisa, you really are desperate for attention, aren't you?
00:37:12After being exposed about the car keys
00:37:15You've resorted to hiring actors to put on a show for us!
00:37:19Oh my god, Lavinia, you really are imaginative
00:37:22You should become a screenwriter
00:37:23I really got a hit on your hands
00:37:25What? Are you getting agitated because I've uncovered the truth
00:37:29And 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
00:37:49Mr. Hawthorne and Elisa are from completely different worlds
00:37:52How could he possibly send her wine?
00:37:54Go home and page your actors
00:37:57Elisa, I think there's something you should know
00:38:00If we hadn't gone to the same high school together
00:38:03You wouldn't have any chance of sitting here with us
00:38:07Having meal, let alone getting to know Mr. Hawthorne
00:38:11You all have gone too far
00:38:13This is supposed to be a class reunion party
00:38:16And you're all targeting Elisa, what are you trying to do?
00:38:19What are we trying to do?
00:38:21She needs to know her place
00:38:22Instead of deceiving us with lies
00:38:25Again and again, how dare she do it and not admit it?
00:38:29Yes, Summer as the saying goes
00:38:32Ugly people make more trouble
00:38:34But poor people make even more trouble
00:38:38I couldn't care less what you think of me
00:38:40But I didn't hire actors for this
00:38:42We are all regular employees of the hotel
00:38:44We cannot be hired as private actors
00:38:47You must have misunderstood
00:38:57Misunderstood?
00:38:59Elisa, you really are hopeless
00:39:01You found some actors and got two bottles of fake wine
00:39:05Thinking you could show off at the reunion party?
00:39:07This cheap wine is only good for making noise when it chatters
00:39:23With this order from President Hawthorne
00:39:26I don't have to worry about my performance
00:39:29For the rest of the month
00:39:31I think I'm going to make Ms. Vale
00:39:33A VVVIP customer from now on
00:39:37Hello?
00:39:39No good, Mr. Carlos
00:39:41Ms. Vale is in trouble
00:39:43What? I'm coming over
00:39:45Damaging someone else's property?
00:39:47Lavinia, you 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
00:39:58And I'll just buy them all so that she can smash them for fun
00:40:04You're disgusting
00:40:05We're ashamed to have you as a classmate
00:40:08You don't deserve to be at our party
00:40:10Security!
00:40:11Where's the security?
00:40:12I'm my sis
00:40:14Well, we don't know who this woman is
00:40:16And I don't know how she got in here
00:40:18And I want her out of here
00:40:20Well, this is Summer Hart
00:40:23Fiance of the President of Hawthorne's Group
00:40:26And having her here, we don't want to have any trouble
00:40:30I'm just silly
00:40:32What are you doing?
00:40:34What is going on here?
00:40:37Who gave you permission to expel my esteemed guest?
00:40:44Did you just call Elisa an esteemed guest?
00:40:47Yes, I did
00:40:50In fact, Miss Vale is one of our VIP customers
00:40:56That can't be possible
00:40:58Her family went bankrupt years ago
00:41:01She probably can't even afford to pay her rent
00:41:02Let me correct myself
00:41:05Not only is Miss Vale our esteemed guest
00:41:09Not 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
00:41:24Well, the wine was personally arranged by President Hawthorne's personal assistant, Ronin
00:41:32How could there possibly be a mistake?
00:41:35But Summer, how could Mr. Hawthorne be sending wine to Elisa?
00:41:39How am I supposed to know what Lucian is thinking?
00:41:43You said that you would pay me back tenfold
00:41:46Forget the tenfold, just pay me the original price
00:41:51Is Lucian going to be angry with me for this?
00:41:54Whatever, let's just enjoy this moment
00:41:56What's going on? Did President Hawthorne really send the wine to Elisa?
00:42:00I have no idea
00:42:02Maybe Summer is just lying
00:42:04And she's being presumptuous about Mr. Hawthorne
00:42:08So Summer, what's the best way for you to pay me back for this?
00:42:13You 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
00:42:27When he finds out, I, the placeholder wife, am totally getting the
00:42:30Legally, you are Mr. Hawthorne's wife
00:42:34You are literally the President's wife
00:42:36You have the high ground, what are you so afraid of?
00:42:39Come on, let's go drink and celebrate
00:42:42You actually want a drink right now?
00:42:43Yes
00:42:44No
00:42:45Yes, come on
00:42:47I ain't okay, just my heart
00:42:53Amelia, be honest with me
00:42:56Okay?
00:42:57What is this?
00:42:58I don't, I don't understand why Lucian wanted to marry me
00:43:01I don't know, it's just
00:43:03I'm starting to feel like maybe he
00:43:05Like
00:43:07Is he actually someone who's really sad?
00:43:10I have something I have to attend to, so I'm going to be leaving now
00:43:14What? Wait, no
00:43:16Are you gossiping about me behind my back while you're drunk?
00:43:20Are you real? Or am I dreaming?
00:43:26Well no, you're not dreaming, I'm actually here to take you home
00:43:29Big gossip?
00:43:31No
00:43:32I don't want to go home, I want to drink more
00:43:35So, you've had too much, you're going to have a headache tomorrow
00:43:38Oh, who knew Mr. Hawthorne was so gentle and thoughtful
00:43:42Come on
00:43:43I can't walk
00:43:45So I could just live here
00:43:47Okay
00:43:49I will carry you back then
00:43:52Come on
00:43:54Alright, ready? 3, 2, 1
00:43:57Okay, here we go
00:43:58Here we go
00:44:04Mr. Hawthorne, here I am
00:44:07Working overtime in the middle of the room
00:44:09Driving at this speed
00:44:10It's going to be sort of nice
00:44:12Lucian, why did you marry me?
00:44:17Lucian, why did you marry me?
00:44:19Actually, I've been in love with you for 10 years
00:44:23Ever since I first saw you
00:44:24Back then the internal struggles in the Hawthorne family were severe
00:44:30And my father was also
00:44:34Lucian
00:44:37Let your father rest in peace
00:44:41You're all I've got now
00:44:46Anyway
00:44:48I didn't dare to show you even a sliver of my feelings for you
00:44:51But the hatred between our parents made me hide my feelings for you
00:44:55Could you give me a chance?
00:44:58Yeah
00:45:00Well, I'll tell you this another time
00:45:08Elisa 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
00:45:17And can make Elisa leave Mr. Hawthorne
00:45:19Mr. Hawthorne
00:45:20Oh?
00:45:22What is it?
00:45:24What is it?
00:45:25Everyone knows that Mr. Hawthorne is devoted to his mother
00:45:28If we tell her about Elisa seducing Mr. Hawthorne then...
00:45:33Good idea
00:45:35Mia is the matriarch of the Hawthorne family
00:45:38She's very clever
00:45:40But she never got involved in the family business
00:45:43And 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
00:45:54Then we just need to wait for Elisa to be expelled from the Hawthorne family
00:45:58I went through great lengths to get this
00:46:03I went through great lengths to get this
00:46:07But I never contacted her
00:46:09Because I didn't have a reason
00:46:11Do it for me
00:46:12When Elisa is dealt with
00:46:14You will be rewarded
00:46:16It's my pleasure to help you Ms. Hart
00:46:22I just hope that when you become the president's wife
00:46:29You won't forget me
00:46:30Of course not
00:46:38Major Hawthorne
00:46:40You received an anonymous message on your phone
00:46:42What does it say?
00:46:44It says there's a fix in 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
00:46:57I need to go back immediately
00:47:01Oh my god
00:47:03Will you be late again today?
00:47:05Oh my god
00:47:06I'm so sorry
00:47:08I'm so sorry
00:47:09You need to pay for this
00:47:10Oh
00:47:11Oh
00:47:12It was you that bumped into me
00:47:13And 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?
00:47:17Because I don't know what's the matter with your generation
00:47:20Having no respect for the elderly
00:47:23But how did I...
00:47:25Okay, here can I help you get up first?
00:47:29Yeah
00:47:30Well are you gonna help me up?
00:47:33Are you okay?
00:47:34No, I am not okay
00:47:35My leg really hurts
00:47:36I don't think I'm gonna be able to walk
00:47:38You need to take responsibility for this
00:47:40Ow
00:47:41How can a young girl be so bad
00:47:43She hits somebody
00:47:44Doesn't want to take responsibility
00:47:46She looks good
00:47:47But she's on me on the inside
00:47:48No, no, no
00:47:49The truth is that...
00:47:51Nevermind
00:47:52Okay, uh...
00:47:53Ma'am, do you have your family's contact information?
00:47:56I can help you reach out to them
00:47:58Family?
00:48:00Who are my family?
00:48:01I don't remember
00:48:03I don't remember
00:48:07You don't remember who your family is?
00:48:10Uh...
00:48:11I don't remember anything
00:48:12What do I do?
00:48:13You don't remember where you live?
00:48:14I don't remember anything
00:48:16Okay
00:48:17What do I do?
00:48:18I...
00:48:19How about I take you to the hospital and then to a police station?
00:48:23No, no, no, no, no
00:48:25I'm not going to a hospital or a police station
00:48:27I don't trust anybody
00:48:29Oh no
00:48:30I'm going to be late
00:48:31But there's the weekly department meeting today
00:48:33I can't take leave
00:48:36Okay, uh...
00:48:37Ma'am, since you're not going anywhere
00:48:39How about I take you to my company office?
00:48:42And then after work, I'll help you find your family
00:48:45Fine
00:48:46Because you need to take responsibility for this
00:48:48You cannot leave my side
00:48:51Okay, okay
00:48:52What is going on?
00:48:53What is going on?
00:48:54Ouch
00:48:55What?
00:48:56Can I just return 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,
00:49:06Mr. Hawthorne, you've been enchanted by seductress
00:49:08She's always had a temper
00:49:10Okay
00:49:11I'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
00:49:17Unless there's some unexpected twist
00:49:19She'll probably be there
00:49:20Alright, Mr. Hawthorne
00:49:21I'll arrange it right away
00:49:22Mom, please don't scare off the wifi I finally got
00:49:29How did the matter about Matriarch Robinson go?
00:49:33Rest assured, Miss Hart
00:49:34It's said that Matriarch Robinson was furious upon hearing the news and returned home immediately
00:49:40Really?
00:49:41Then Alisa will be out of here soon
00:49:44Yes
00:49:45Congratulations in advance, Miss Hart
00:49:48Let's go
00:49:49There's a weekly meeting of the business department and Lucian will be there personally
00:49:54We can't afford to make a mistake
00:49:56Um, Amelia's gone on a work trip so you can sit in her spot while she's gone
00:50:05If, if you get bored you can just lay on my phone
00:50:07Okay, and we have to keep our voices down because people are working
00:50:11Okay, I just want to know if I can play with this
00:50:13Everyone
00:50:14The weekly meeting is about to begin
00:50:16Alisa
00:50:17Why did you bring a cleaner to work?
00:50:19Alisa really treats the company as her home
00:50:22Being anyone she likes
00:50:24Seriously, so filthy, it's disgusting just looking at them
00:50:32Alisa, our entire department is filled up with work and you?
00:50:36If we have to delay our work are you going to take responsibility for that?
00:50:41Ms. Hart, this woman might have some trouble with her memory so I'm only bringing her here temporarily
00:50:46I was going to help her find her family after work and if she could just sit here for the time being
00:50:51I promise that she won't disturb anybody
00:50:53You mean you brought this old hag in off the street and she's also sick?
00:50:58I think you're crazy picking up an old hag like this, reeking of poverty, stinking up the whole office
00:51:05Where did you find her? In a sewer?
00:51:08What if this old hag isn't just mentally ill but also could infect us all with some disease?
00:51:13Yeah, Ms. Hart, I really think we should call a cleaner later to disinfect everywhere this lady's been
00:51:18How could all of you be so cruel? Don't you all have families too?
00:51:23What if one of them had lost their memory and needed your help?
00:51:26This girl? She's interesting. I'm not the one who's sick.
00:51:30You're sick!
00:51:33Disgusting.
00:51:34Elisa, our company has rules and regulations. It's not a place for you to show your kindness.
00:51:40Get this old hag out of here now.
00:51:45Get this old hag out of here now.
00:51:48Ms. Hart, there is nothing in our company policy that discourages helping somebody in need.
00:51:52In fact, it encourages us to do so.
00:51:54Oh, there isn't. Well, now there is.
00:51:59Do you have a problem? Ms. Hart is a senior leader in our company.
00:52:02She can represent our president and now she just happened to add another company rule.
00:52:07Even if she asks security to drag you out, there's nothing you can do. Understand?
00:52:13How come the employees of the business department are like this?
00:52:17Lucien will be here soon from the business department.
00:52:20Elisa, you have two minutes. If you don't get this old hag out of here, I will fire you.
00:52:26You can go beg on the street with her. Maybe then you'll make more money than you do now.
00:52:31Summer, you are really pushing it. Tell me, what else can you do besides flaunt your authority?
00:52:37I'm reporting you to Mr. Hawthorne.
00:52:40As a low-level employee, you have contradicted me one too many times.
00:52:45And now you dare go see Mr. Hawthorne? You're fired.
00:52:50Two years. Two years away from this company and I never thought that the business department of the Hawthorne group would decay into the state.
00:53:01Elisa will not be fired.
00:53:03You will!
00:53:04You will!
00:53:07Matthew, did I just hear this old hag say she's gonna fire us?
00:53:13She has a problem with her brain, that's why she's talking crazy.
00:53:16Ms. Hart is our president's wife-to-be. Firing her? Too ridiculous.
00:53:22Besides memory loss, is she also crazy?
00:53:25Why are they saying president's wife?
00:53:29Isn't it you?
00:53:31Are all of you quite finished? I can't believe how shallow you are.
00:53:34You are kind and righteous, so you never use Lucian's identity to gain power.
00:53:40But you?
00:53:41Okay, ma'am, it's okay. I'm going to help you find your family. Let's go.
00:53:45Why do we need to leave? Why don't they leave first?
00:53:47Fine, since you're determined to cling to us.
00:53:50Matthew, get this old hag out of here right now!
00:54:02You've got guts. I'll see who dares to kick me out of here today.
00:54:09You actually dare to hit me, Ms. Hart?
00:54:18Elisa, this woman attacked my subordinate. I could have her sent to a mental hospital.
00:54:23You don't have the authority.
00:54:24Of course I do. She hit my subordinate. I can reasonably deduce she has some mental issues.
00:54:29How many times do I have to tell you? Yes, this woman is clearly sick, but naturally I'm going to find her family to let them handle it.
00:54:36If you and Matthew hadn't instigated this, none of this would have happened.
00:54:40This woman's actions can only be described as self-defense.
00:54:43Yeah, I think you're the one who's crazy. You don't respect the elderly. You're not qualified to be a leader.
00:54:48I don't know why your company's higher-ups even chose you.
00:54:54Oh, are you angry?
00:55:00Matthew, make these two disappear from my sight!
00:55:03Security, throw both of them out of Hawthorne Group!
00:55:08With me here, they can't drive you away.
00:55:11I tell you, I am...
00:55:13Summer, what are you doing here?
00:55:15Summer, what are you doing?
00:55:18Oh my god, why does Lucian come to the business department every day?
00:55:24Fine. I guess we'll have another showdown.
00:55:27Explain.
00:55:28Well, it's like this. Elisa brought this woman in off the street, who smells terrible, and insisted on having her in the office, which was disrupting everyone's work, so I'm only thinking of the company.
00:55:38Yes, Mr. Hawthorne, what if she has some contagious disease and infects everyone?
00:55:43I take full responsibility for this incident. If the company wishes, I can hand in my resignation.
00:55:50Hawthorne Group is not an impersonal company. Elisa's done well.
00:55:55From today forward, you'll be promoted to Team Leader, and oversee projects as a reward.
00:56:01Mr. Hawthorne, I'm... I'm afraid I'm not qualified for this position.
00:56:06I believe everyone here knows your abilities well.
00:56:11As for you, you can go to HR, and they'll handle your resignation.
00:56:17He is the backbone of the business department. If you fire him, there'll be no elites left.
00:56:22Summer, you've managed the business department into a mess. You're responsible for that.
00:56:26I promise to manage the business department better. This won't happen again.
00:56:30Matthew, 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. Please forgive me.
00:56:48Why are you apologizing first? This one almost just put me into a mental hospital.
00:56:52You old hag. How dare you ask me to apologize.
00:56:56Miss Hart? Apologize.
00:57:02Sorry. I'm sorry I can't hear you.
00:57:10I was wrong. I'm sorry.
00:57:13And you guys?
00:57:17I'm sorry.
00:57:18Sorry.
00:57:22Have I been misunderstanding him all this time? Could it be?
00:57:25Well, that's the end of that matter.
00:57:27I'll take care of this lady and help her find her family.
00:57:35Lucian, why did you call me over? What if Elisa finds out?
00:57:38Well, what exactly are you trying to do?
00:57:40I want to test my daughter-in-law.
00:57:43Haven't you tested her enough today?
00:57:45She's great. You saw that.
00:57:47Oh, Lucian. You're quite loyal, aren't you?
00:57:57That's enough.
00:58:00Fine.
00:58:02Look, um, Elisa is a very good girl, but it seems she doesn't even know that you like her.
00:58:09Nor does anyone else know that she's your wife.
00:58:12Why are you keeping this marriage so secretive?
00:58:17I don't know how to tell her.
00:58:18I'm afraid that if we make our relationship public, pressure will be too much for her.
00:58:23Lucian, when did you become such a coward?
00:58:27Look, if you like her, just confess boldly.
00:58:31You don't want to wait till Elisa falls for some other guy before you feel regret, do you?
00:58:36Regret what?
00:58:41Nothing.
00:58:42Please, come sit.
00:58:47Elisa...
00:58:49I'm sorry, I was deceptive earlier.
00:58:53I...
00:58:54I'm actually Lucian's mother.
00:58:56What?
00:58:59Please, let me explain.
00:59:01Um, a few days ago I got an anonymous text saying that some woman was trying to seduce Lucian, and I got afraid that he might get tricked.
00:59:13Anyway, Elisa, can you please forgive me?
00:59:15Forgive me.
00:59:19Yes, 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.
00:59:27I have an idea who sent him. Go ahead.
00:59:30Good.
00:59:31And Elisa?
00:59:32I heard that Lucian 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.
00:59:41Lucian, why aren't you eating?
00:59:55Yeah.
00:59:56Of 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?
01:00:11Okay.
01:00:14I've been meaning to ask you.
01:00:17You've liked Summer for ten years.
01:00:20I mean, why would you marry me?
01:00:23Why protect me at every turn?
01:00:25Hold on.
01:00:27You think I've liked Summer for ten years?
01:00:30Judging by his reaction, he must have been caught off guard.
01:00:33Elisa, you're being too presumptuous.
01:00:36Seriously, why would I have liked her for ten years?
01:00:38Elisa, I've liked you for ten years.
01:00:43What?
01:00:46How could that possibly be true?
01:00:47From the first day we met, I fell for you.
01:00:50But because of the conflict between our parents, I chose to get them.
01:00:55I wanted to show you that I cared for you, but I couldn't.
01:01:00I was afraid that it would put you in danger.
01:01:03I'm really sorry, Elisa.
01:01:06All these years I've suppressed my feelings for you.
01:01:10Fought tooth and nail to be the head of the Hawthorne family.
01:01:14And 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.
01:01:30So why now?
01:01:32I was afraid if I told you.
01:01:34You didn't like me.
01:01:35You wouldn't even be colleagues anymore.
01:01:37Elisa, what's wrong?
01:01:39So when you sat next to me all those years ago, it wasn't because you didn't like your food?
01:01:46Hey, I don't really like this.
01:01:57Yeah, I'm really sorry I couldn't show you my feelings in the proper way.
01:02:02But then, why did you write Summer that love letter back then?
01:02:09What 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?
01:02:21What does that have to do with Summer? I 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?
01:02:38So it was...
01:02:39It was all just a misunderstanding?
01:02:41Elisa...
01:02:42I love you.
01:02:44I know.
01:02:45I tricked you into marrying me.
01:02:48But my feelings for you are absolutely true.
01:02:51So...
01:02:52Can you try to accept me?
01:02:55I know that our marriage started as a contract but it...
01:02:59It feels real to me now.
01:03:01I love you.
01:03:03I want to be with you.
01:03:05I want to be with you now and I want to be with you when we're old and...
01:03:09I love you.
01:03:10I love you.
01:03:20You're finally mine.
01:03:24Yours.
01:03:25Hey.
01:03:26From now on, we're true husband and wife.
01:03:38We don't have to keep our relationship secret in front of our colleagues anymore.
01:03:42Okay.
01:03:43Lucian, I...
01:03:48Elise, you...
01:03:50Summer, I'd like you to meet my wife.
01:03:52What?
01:03:54Elisa 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, it's never gonna work.
01:04:06What text messages? I...
01:04:07I have the evidence, Summer.
01:04:12Now, considering the relationship between our families, I'm gonna ask you to go ahead and submit your resignation from your team.
01:04:19As for everyone else, you all get off an hour early today.
01:04:22And you're invited to dinner with my wife.
01:04:28Yay!
