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?
00:01:22What is the most important thing to do?
00:01:30Please, wait.
00:01:31Elisa?
00:01:36Hey, Mom.
00:01:37Please come home as 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 going to be right there.
00:02:01Oh my God, Mom, are you okay?
00:02:05I'm fine, honey.
00:02:09I'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.
00:02:18I'm sorry.
00:02:22Is there anything else in there?
00:02:24No, this is it.
00:02:28One second, okay? I'll be right back.
00:02:30Hello?
00:02:33Elisa, where are you?
00:02:34Don't you remember where we're supposed to meet?
00:02:36In 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...
00:02:46Hello?
00:02:50No, no, no, no, no, no.
00:02:51Fuck, fuck.
00:02:53I just lost my house, and now I'm going to lose my job, too?
00:02:57Where am I going to find a million dollars?
00:03:00Elisa?
00:03:05Why are you crying?
00:03:09Um...
00:03:10Mr. 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, I was really drunk last night, and I can't remember how everything happened
00:03:31after, 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
00:03:44doesn't get auctioned off.
00:03:45If you agree, we can get the marriage certificate right now.
00:03:57Why do you want to help me?
00:03:58I 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.
00:04:13I have no other way.
00:04:17Mr. Hawthorne?
00:04:19Thank 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 going to get back to work then.
00:04:30Uh, Ronan will actually take you back.
00:04:33And I'll give you my home address, so 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, you're finally mine.
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, no worries.
00:05:11It's fine.
00:05:16Can I have your name?
00:05:17I'm Elisa.
00:05:18Elisa 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.
00:05:35You really married Mr. Hawthorne?
00:05:42It's just a contract marriage.
00:05:43Oh, shh.
00:05:44I'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?
00:05:52I couldn't help.
00:05:53We've known each other since middle school.
00:05:54I don't think he actually likes me.
00:05:56Plus, everyone in the company knows who he actually wants to be with.
00:06:00Mrs. Hawthorne is back.
00:06:04Hello, everyone.
00:06:05Please, help yourself to have some cake.
00:06:08Thank you, Miss Hart.
00:06:10You 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.
00:06:41Last 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.
00:06:53Amelia, my relationship with Mr. Hawthorne.
00:06:57Please, don't talk to me.
00:06:59Okay.
00:07:120903.
00:07:17That's Summer's birthday again.
00:07:19If they love each other so much, then...
00:07:21It's okay, whatever it is.
00:07:23He's just not getting his money back.
00:07:25Why aren't you coming in?
00:07:37Why aren't you coming in?
00:07:39Mr. Hawthorne, I think that we should talk...
00:07:41Call me.
00:07:41What should I do?
00:08:03Am I supposed to sleep with him tonight?
00:08:04I know that we did that before, but...
00:08:08I was drunk.
00:08:12If I turn him down, will he get angry?
00:08:14But...
00:08:15If I don't...
00:08:17Melissa?
00:08:18You okay?
00:08:18I'm fine.
00:08:20Thank you for asking.
00:08:33I'm...
00:08:34I'm not ready.
00:08:35I was just going to turn off the light.
00:08:40What did you think I was going to do?
00:08:42Oh, yeah.
00:08:43No.
00:08:44Don't get me wrong.
00:08:45I just meant I wasn't ready to sleep yet.
00:08:48Elisa.
00:08:49I don't want some one-night stand.
00:08:52I want to be your everything.
00:08:58Matthew!
00:08:59Why 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 the 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, but she dared to seduce Mr. Hawthorne when you were away.
00:09:36Matthew, you know how important our negotiations with the Sunlight Group is.
00:09:41And since it is your subordinates' fault, you know what to do, right?
00:09:47Rest 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.
00:10:07It is because of you that we lost the project with Sunlight Group.
00:10:10You're fired.
00:10:10Mr. Clark, I was only in charge of the initial budget, not 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, but I called in for a leave of absence.
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, who else would it be?
00:10:39I was absent that day, yes, but I prepared the initial budget ahead of time, so 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?
00:11:09For a professional budget analyst, you've made such a sloppy mistake.
00:11:14Elisa, do you have anything else to say for yourself?
00:11:18Looks like Elisa is in trouble.
00:11:21Elisa 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.
00:11:33Wait, I have evidence to prove that my budget was correct.
00:11:39Evidence?
00:11:40Then 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.
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.
00:12:09We 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.
00:12:22If anyone else can vouch for Elisa, I can give her a second chance.
00:12:27Anyone?
00:12:27Weren'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?
00:12:44This better be something important.
00:12:50Mr. Hawthorne, the business department is in uproar.
00:12:53So?
00:12:54Can'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, Mr. Clark, I'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.
00:13:45Since you refused to leave,
00:13:48Security?
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?
00:14:13Why 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.
00:14:41Fired 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.
00:15:07Elisa, 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.
00:15:51Hold 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.
00:16:13Lucian, 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, but you insisted that the results
00:16:35were clear.
00:16:37Apologize to Mr. Hawthorne right now.
00:16:39Yes, Ms. Hart.
00:16:41Is Lucian helping me?
00:16:43But 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?
00:16:50Elisa, 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?
00:17:19The next time something like that happens, come see me and let me handle it.
00:17:24You're so busy.
00:17:25I didn't want to bother you.
00:17:27We're married.
00:17:32You can do whatever you want.
00:17:34We're at the office.
00:17:36Don't fool around.
00:17:37Fool around?
00:17:38Well, 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?
00:17:51That's not necessarily what I mean.
00:17:55Well, if that's all, Mr. Hawthorne, I guess I'll be going back to work.
00:17:58Elisa.
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!
00:18:19I can't really understand the data over here.
00:18:22Can you help me, please?
00:18:28Ms. Hart, may I help you?
00:18:32You are still under investigation.
00:18:34Now isn't the current time for you to be working on company projects.
00:18:38But 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?
00:18:46Clean it.
00:18:48Ms. Hart, I'm an analyst.
00:18:51I'm not an intern.
00:18:52What?
00:18:54Are you defying your superior?
00:18:55Someone is really ignorant.
00:18:57She hasn't been clarified yet.
00:18:59Now she's defying her superior.
00:19:01Does she think she owns the company?
00:19:03Right?
00:19:04Ms. 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.
00:19:23I like my job, and 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?
00:19:42It doesn't matter.
00:19:43Let's see how long you can keep tolerating.
00:19:48Ms. Hart?
00:19:49Your coffee?
00:19:50Hand it to me.
00:19:51Oh my god, this coffee's so hot, it 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?
00:20:10I'm so sorry.
00:20:11I will go buy you one right now.
00:20:12Can't you see there's coffee on the floor?
00:20:14Clean it up.
00:20:15Now.
00:20:15Now.
00:20:16Who told you you could mop the floor with that?
00:20:24If you damage the floors, can you afford to pay for them?
00:20:28How 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?
00:20:38What, can't handle it?
00:20:40You 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?
00:20:56Mr. Hawthorne, there's an upcoming online meeting with an overseas company.
00:21:01Uh-huh.
00:21:01Hey, is the business department next to the meeting room?
00:21:05Yes, Mr. Hawthorne.
00:21:07Let's pay you to visit first.
00:21:09He was just departing with 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?
00:21:22Oh, I'm sorry.
00:21:24I didn't do it, Off-Part.
00:21:25Elisa, when you were seducing Lucian when I was away, have you ever thought of today?
00:21:33I 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 didn't!
00:21:40If you were to 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!
00:21:51Elisa, are you alright?
00:21:52Elisa 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 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.
00:22:06But 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?
00:22:14Elisa, is that actually what happened?
00:22:15Lucian is in love with Summer.
00:22:17Even if I told the truth, would he believe me?
00:22:21Yes, it's the truth.
00:22:24Come with me to my office.
00:22:27Come.
00:22:29Why 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 really fine.
00:22:47I can just go home and...
00:22:49No, 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.
00:23:00But she can be bossy and overbearing.
00:23:03I can transfer you to another department.
00:23:05If you can't bear her.
00:23:07Maybe mine.
00:23:08So we can spend more time together.
00:23:09No, 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.
00:23:26Just don't let this hand touch water for a little bit.
00:23:28Thank you, Mr. Hawthorne.
00:23:32It's just the two of us.
00:23:34You can call me by my name.
00:23:36Well, 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.
00:23:51Hasn'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.
00:24:07I 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.
00:24:24All 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?
00:24:37Why hasn't this happened yet?
00:24:40Um...
00:24:40Well, 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...
00:25:01You don't have to worry about it.
00:25:03It's okay.
00:25:04Elisa.
00:25:04What's up?
00:25:05What's up?
00:25:05Hey!
00:25:06Elisa, what took you so long?
00:25:07What's up?
00:25:08There's a school reunion party this weekend.
00:25:09They notified us in the group, but I figured you haven't read it yet since you didn't respond,
00:25:10so I'm just giving you a heads up.
00:25:11What?
00:25:12It's been ages.
00:25:13Why is there a high school reunion party out of nowhere?
00:25:14Here's the monthly report from the business department.
00:25:15Just leave it over there.
00:25:16What?
00:25:17How about we grab a drink tonight?
00:25:18I know a good place.
00:25:19I actually have plans tonight.
00:25:20If you don't have anything else, you can leave.
00:25:21Lucian, it's been so long.
00:25:22I'm not sure you haven't read it yet since you didn't respond, so I'm just giving you
00:25:23a heads up.
00:25:24What?
00:25:25It's been ages.
00:25:26Why is there a high school reunion party out of nowhere?
00:25:27Here's the monthly report from the business department.
00:25:28Just leave it over there.
00:25:29How about we grab a drink tonight?
00:25:30I know a good place.
00:25:31I actually have plans tonight.
00:25:32If you don't have anything else, you can leave.
00:25:45Lucian, it's been so long.
00:25:47Summer, 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.
00:26:15I 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?
00:26:29I don't know.
00:26:30Amelia 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.
00:26:41Okay.
00:26:42Yeah, that's fine.
00:26:43I'll send you something though, since I can't be there.
00:26:46You really don't have to do that.
00:26:48And I know it's far, so take this.
00:26:51Lucian, that's way too expensive.
00:26:55I'm just going to take the subway.
00:26:57Elisa, 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.
00:27:12Take it.
00:27:13You're just giving this to me?
00:27:17Well, I'm your husband.
00:27:19Legally speaking, what's mine is yours.
00:27:22Well, thank you then.
00:27:24This 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 to be 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.
00:27:46You 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, 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.
00:28:05Well, 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.
00:28:16The 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...
00:28:24Oh yeah, I'm done.
00:28:25You're so mean.
00:28:26I can't.
00:28:27Well, we're late so we have to go.
00:28:28Okay.
00:28:29Hello everyone.
00:28:30Long time no see.
00:28:31So sorry we're late.
00:28:32So it's Elisa.
00:28:33What is it?
00:28:34The poor student back then is putting airs now?
00:28:36Did you make us wait on purpose?
00:28:38Did you plan to arrive late deliberately to attract our attention?
00:28:41Elisa, you were still using the same lame tricks as back then, aren't you?
00:28:45Who wants to pay attention to her?
00:28:46After all this year she's still the streets of poverty.
00:28:48Hey, don't say such a word.
00:28:49What if she's doing well?
00:28:51And she'll be able to take care of her or her?
00:28:52No.
00:28:53No.
00:28:54No.
00:28:55No.
00:28:56No.
00:28:57No.
00:28:58No.
00:28:59No.
00:29:00No.
00:29:01No.
00:29:02No.
00:29:03No.
00:29:04No.
00:29:05No.
00:29:06No.
00:29:07No.
00:29:08No.
00:29:09No.
00:29:10Hey, don't say such words. What if she's doing well and busy with work? Maybe she didn't mean to be late.
00:29:18Her? She's probably a low-level employee. How well could she be doing?
00:29:22What do you mean by that?
00:29:24Elisa and I were just...
00:29:28Oh, Summer's here. Although it's been years since we graduated, she's only been more gorgeous.
00:29:33Summer is both the daughter of the noble family and Mr. Hoffman's childhood friend.
00:29:39Yeah, Summer is more than jealous now.
00:29:42Summer, come on, sit next to me. I've reserved the main seat for you.
00:29:49Sorry I'm late. Traffic was terrible.
00:29:53Never 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.
00:30:03I'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.
00:30:14Wow, 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? Such a lottery car and nothing but a toy to her.
00:30:27She can have as many as she wants. A bunch of snot.
00:30:31Shhh. Elisa, 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. Do you want me to give you a ride?
00:30:50Oh Summer, you're still so kind-hearted. But 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? Elisa didn't take the subway and it wouldn't matter if she did.
00:31:08She drove here in a fancy new limited edition convertible. Something 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.
00:31:32Not 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? Even 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.
00:32:04It probably costs half a year's salary to rent that car. It'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?
00:32:19I'm sorry 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.
00:32:30Alright. Oh hey, by the way, my wife is having a class reunion party. Invite someone over with some fine wine. Let her have some fun.
00:32:37Yes, Mr. Hawthorne.
00:32:39It 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, and 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?
00:33:03It's not my business. Even though I'm her superior, I try not to pry.
00:33:09Although 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.
00:33:23Amelia, I think you should stay with Elisa. She got a bad influence on you.
00:33:32And what do you know? Elisa's husband.
00:33:36Okay, okay, you guys keep partying. Uh, Amelia? Let's go.
00:33:45Excuse me, these are the wines set by Mr. Hawthorne.
00:33:51Oh!
00:33:531982 Lafitte? But we didn't order these wines!
00:33:57I'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.
00:34:06Summer, this wine must be a special gift for Mr. Hawthorne for you.
00:34:10Yeah, 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, and now they're still so affectionate.
00:34:24I wonder if they're gonna get married soon.
00:34:27Of course! Summer's future president's wife.
00:34:31Unlike someone.
00:34:33Oh Elisa, you see, you can never shake my bond with Lucien.
00:34:39Alright everyone, since Lucien sent over these wines, let's enjoy them together.
00:34:44But Summer, this is 1982 Lafitte.
00:34:47I think some people here are not worthy of drinking such fine wine.
00:34:51They 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! Compared to her would be a waste.
00:35:01You're all wrong. This wine is for me.
00:35:05This wine is for me.
00:35:08Did 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?
00:35:17Mrs. Hawthorne? It's Summer.
00:35:20Are you daydreaming, Elisa?
00:35:22Do you think you're some Cinderella who married a president?
00:35:25Elisa, are you jealous of me?
00:35:28Not only jealous of my family background, and my job.
00:35:30Now 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!
00:35:50How can you be so confident that the wine is for Summer?
00:35:53When Summer and Mr. Hawthorne started dating, Elisa was somewhere picking up trash.
00:35:58All 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.
00:36:07Hey, waiter! Tell us! Who does Mr. Hawthorne give these wines to?
00:36:13Yeah, tell us! Who does Mr. Hawthorne give these wines to?
00:36:17So that someone can start daydreaming.
00:36:20These wines were given to Mrs. Elisvale by Mr. Hawthorne.
00:36:24What?! This wine is from Lucien to Elisa?!
00:36:30There must have been a mistake! Check it again!
00:36:33How could Mr. Hawthorne possibly send wine to Elisa?!
00:36:37Yes, this is indeed the wine sent from Mr. Lucien to Ms. Vale.
00:36:41How could this be?! What makes Elisa 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?!
00:36:57Okay, Emilia. Yeah, like I said, I don't need to lie.
00:37:01Mr. Hawthorne would never send wine to this bitch. Could it be...
00:37:06Wait! What now, Lavinia?
00:37:09Elisa, you really are desperate for attention, aren't you?
00:37:13After being exposed about the car keys, you've resorted to hiring actors to put on a show for us!
00:37:20Oh my god! Lavinia, you really are imaginative!
00:37:23You should become a screenwriter. Really got a hit on your hands.
00:37:26What?! 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.
00:37:38After all, lowly people are always so desperate for attention, right?
00:37:48Summer makes a valid point. Mr. Hawthorne and Elisa are from completely different worlds.
00:37:53How could he possibly send her wine?
00:37:55Go home and page your actors.
00:37:57Elisa, I think there's something you should know.
00:38:01If we hadn't gone to the same high school together, you wouldn't have any chance of sitting here with us, having a meal, let alone getting to know Mr. Hawthorne!
00:38:12You all have gone too far! This is supposed to be a class reunion party and you're all targeting Elisa! What are you trying to do?!
00:38:18What are we trying to do?!
00:38:20What 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 not admit it!
00:38:30Yes, Summer, as the saying goes, ugly people make more trouble, but poor people make even more trouble!
00:38:38I couldn't care less what you think of me, but I didn't hire actors for this.
00:38:43We are all regular employees of the hotel. We cannot be hired as private actors. You must have misunderstood.
00:38:49Misunderstood?
00:38:57Misunderstood?
00:38:59Elisa, you really are hopeless. You found some actors and got two bottles of fake wine thinking you could show off at the reunion party?!
00:39:08This cheap wine is only good for making noise when it chatters!
00:39:24With this order from President Hawthorne, I don't have to worry about my performance for the rest of the month.
00:39:31I think I'm gonna make Ms. Vale a VVVIP customer from now on.
00:39:38Hello?
00:39:39No good, Mr. Carlos. Ms. Vale was 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.
00:39:52How 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!
00:40:02You're disgusting. We're ashamed to have you as a classmate. You don't deserve to be at our party.
00:40:11Security!
00:40:12Where's the security?
00:40:13I'm Mrs.
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.
00:40:21Well, this is Summer Hart, fiance of the president of Hawthorne's group. And having her here, we don't wanna have any trouble.
00:40:30On a suit.
00:40:31What are you doing? What is going on here? Who gave you permission to expel my esteemed guest?
00:40:45Did you just call Elisa an esteemed guest?
00:40:49Yes, I did. In fact, Ms. Vale is one of our VIP customers.
00:40:56That can't be possible. Her family went bankrupt years ago. She probably can't even afford to pay her rent.
00:41:03Let me correct myself. Not only is Ms. Vale our esteemed guest, not only is she our VVVIP customer, but the wine was arranged to be sent by President Hawthorne to her. Does my word count? Does it have any weight around here?
00:41:21Mr. Carlos, there must be some mistake.
00:41:26Well, the wine was personally arranged by President Hawthorne's personal assistant, Ronan. How could there possibly be a mistake?
00:41:36But Summer, how could Mr. Hawthorne be sending wine to Elisa?
00:41:41How am I supposed to know what Lucian is thinking?
00:41:43You said that you would pay me back tenfold. Forget the tenfold. Just pay me the original price.
00:41:52Is Lucian going to be angry with me for this? Whatever. 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. Maybe someone is just lying and she's being presumptuous about Mr. Hawthorne?
00:42:07So Summer, what's the best way for you to pay me back for this?
00:42:14You should have seen the look on Summer's face when she tried to swipe her card. It was hilarious.
00:42:20Oh my gosh, today we finally showed her who's boss.
00:42:24I know, but I feel like everyone knows that Summer is Lucian's dream girl.
00:42:27When he finds out I, the placeholder wife, I'm totally getting the-
00:42:31Legally, you are Mr. Hawthorne's wife.
00:42:34You are literally the President's wife. You have the high ground. What are you so afraid of?
00:42:40Come 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!
00:42:46Come on!
00:42:47I ain't okay, just my heart.
00:42:49Amelia, be honest with me, okay?
00:42:57What is this?
00:42:58I don't- I don't understand why Lucian wanted to marry me.
00:43:02I don't know, it's just- I'm starting to feel like maybe he- like-
00:43:08Is he actually someone-
00:43:10Elisa, I 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?
00:43:23Are you real? Or am I dreaming?
00:43:26Well, no, you're not dreaming. I'm actually here to take you home.
00:43:29They gossip? No.
00:43:32I don't want to go home. I want to drink more.
00:43:35Elisa, you've had too much. You'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.
00:43:53Come on.
00:43:55All right, ready? Three, two, one.
00:43:58Okay, here we go.
00:44:05Mr. Hawthorne, here I am.
00:44:08Working overtime in the middle of the-
00:44:10Driving at this speed.
00:44:11Okay, let's go.
00:44:12I'm sorry.
00:44:14Lucian, why did you marry me?
00:44:18Lucian, why did you marry me?
00:44:20Actually, I've-
00:44:22Been in love with you for ten years.
00:44:23Ever since I first saw you.
00:44:28Back then, the internal struggles in the Hawthorne family were severe.
00:44:31And my father was also...
00:44:34Lucian?
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.
00:45:00Well, 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?
00:45:23What 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...
00:45:34Good 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.
00:45:50All 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.
00:46:20It'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.
00:46:38Major Hawthorne, you received an anonymous message on your phone.
00:46:43What does it say?
00:46:45It says there's a fix in our own Mr. Hawthorne.
00:46:47She turned him so much that he's been ignoring his Hawthorne group affairs.
00:46:51Book me a flight. I need to go back. Immediately.
00:47:01Oh my god.
00:47:03Are we being late again today?
00:47:04Ow! Ow! Ow!
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.
00:47:15I 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!
00:47:25Okay. Here. Can I help you get up first?
00:47:29Yeah.
00:47:30Well, are you going to help me up?
00:47:33Are 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.
00:47:41How 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 on the inside.
00:47:49No, no, no. The truth is that...
00:47:50Never mind.
00:47:52Okay, uh...
00:47:54Ma'am, do you have your family's contact information?
00:47:57I can help you reach out to them.
00:47:58Family?
00:48:00Who are my family?
00:48:03I don't remember.
00:48:05You don't remember who your family is?
00:48:10Uh...
00:48:11I 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...
00:48:19How 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.
00:48:29Oh, 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...
00:48:38Ma'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.
00:48:46Because you need to take responsibility for this.
00:48:49You cannot leave my spot.
00:48:51Okay.
00:48:52Okay.
00:48:53What 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?
00:49:06It said,
00:49:06Mr. Hawthorne, you've been enchanted by seductress.
00:49:09She'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, 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 wife I finally got.
00:49:30How did the matter about Matriarch Robinson go?
00:49:33Rest assured, Miss 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.
00:49:47Congratulations in advance, Miss 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.
00:49:58Amelia's gone on a work trip,
00:49:59so you can sit in her spot while she's gone.
00:50:05If you get bored, you can just...
00:50:08I got my phone.
00:50:08Okay, and we have to keep our voices down
00:50:10because 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.
00:50:18Alisa, 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,
00:50:36and you?
00:50:37If we have to delay our work,
00:50:40are you going to take responsibility for that?
00:50:42Miss Hart,
00:50:43this 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,
00:50:58and she's also sick?
00:51:00I think you're crazy.
00:51:02Picking up an old hag like this,
00:51:03reeking of poverty,
00:51:04stinking up the whole office.
00:51:07Where did you find her?
00:51:07In a sewer?
00:51:08What if this old hag isn't just mentally ill,
00:51:11but also could infect us all with some disease?
00:51:14Yeah, Miss Hart,
00:51:15really 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?
00:51:22Don't you all have families too?
00:51:24What if one of them had lost their memory,
00:51:26and needed your help?
00:51:27This girl, she's interesting.
00:51:29I'm not the one who's sick.
00:51:31You're sick!
00:51:34Disgusting.
00:51:35Alisa,
00:51:35our company has rules and regulations.
00:51:38It's not a place for you to show your kindness.
00:51:41Get this old hag out of here now.
00:51:46Get this old hag out of here now.
00:51:49Miss Hart,
00:51:49there is nothing in our company policy
00:51:51that discourages helping somebody in need.
00:51:53In fact,
00:51:54it encourages us to do so.
00:51:55Oh, there isn't.
00:51:56Well,
00:51:57now there is.
00:51:58Do you have a problem?
00:52:01Miss Hart is a senior leader in our company.
00:52:03She can represent our president,
00:52:05and now she just happened to add another company rule.
00:52:08Even if she asks security to drag you out,
00:52:11there's nothing you can do.
00:52:12Understand?
00:52:12How come the employees of the business department are like this?
00:52:18Lucien will be here soon from the business department.
00:52:21Alisa,
00:52:22you have two minutes.
00:52:23If you don't get this old hag out of here,
00:52:26I 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,
00:52:34you are really pushing it.
00:52:35Tell me,
00:52:36what else can you do besides flaunt your authority?
00:52:38I'm reporting you to Mr. Hawthorne.
00:52:41As a low-level employee,
00:52:43you have contradicted me one too many times.
00:52:45And now,
00:52:46you dare go see Mr. Hawthorne?
00:52:48You're fired.
00:52:51Two years.
00:52:52Two years away from this company,
00:52:54and I never thought that the business department
00:52:56of the Hawthorne Group would decay into the state.
00:53:02Alisa will not be fired.
00:53:04You will.
00:53:05You will.
00:53:10Matthew,
00:53:10did I just hear this old hag say she's gonna fire us?
00:53:14She has a problem with her brain.
00:53:15That's why she's talking crazy.
00:53:17Miss Hart is our president's wife-to-be.
00:53:20Firing her?
00:53:22Too ridiculous.
00:53:23Besides memory loss,
00:53:25is 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.
00:53:37You never used Lucian's identity to gain power.
00:53:41But you?
00:53:42Okay, ma'am.
00:53:43It'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?
00:53:47Why don't they leave first?
00:53:48Fine.
00:53:49Since you're determined to cling to us.
00:53:51Matthew,
00:53:52get this old hag out of here right now.
00:53:55You've got guts.
00:54:03I'll see who dares to kick me out of here today.
00:54:06You actually dared to hit me?
00:54:17Miss Hart?
00:54:18Elisa, 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,
00:54:34but 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!
00:55:09With me 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?
00:55:19Oh my god, why does Lucian come to the business department every day?
00:55:25Fine.
00:55:26I 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,
00:55:32who smells terrible,
00:55:33and insisted on having her in the office,
00:55:36which was disrupting everyone's work,
00:55:38so I'm only thinking of the company.
00:55:40Yes, Mr. Hawthorne,
00:55:41what if she has some contagious disease and infects everyone?
00:55:45I take full responsibility for this incident.
00:55:47If the company wishes,
00:55:49I 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,
00:55:59you'll be promoted to team leader
00:56:00and oversee projects as a reward.
00:56:03Mr. 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,
00:56:13you can go to HR,
00:56:15and they'll handle your resignation.
00:56:18He is the backbone of the business department.
00:56:21If you fire him,
00:56:22there'll be no elites left.
00:56:23Summer, you've managed the business department into a mess.
00:56:26You're responsible for that.
00:56:27I promise to manage the business department better.
00:56:30This won't happen again.
00:56:32Matthew,
00:56:33why have you not apologized to this madame and Miss Vale yet?
00:56:37I'm sorry.
00:56:47Please forgive me.
00:56:49Why are you apologizing first?
00:56:51This one almost just put me into a mental hospital.
00:56:53You old hag.
00:56:54How dare you ask me to apologize?
00:56:57Miss Hart?
00:56:59Apologize.
00:57:02Sorry.
00:57:03I'm sorry.
00:57:04I can't hear you.
00:57:07I was wrong.
00:57:12I'm sorry.
00:57:14And you guys?
00:57:17I am sorry.
00:57:19Sorry.
00:57:22Have I been misunderstanding him all this time?
00:57:25Could it be?
00:57:26Well,
00:57:27that's the end of that matter.
00:57:28I'll take care of this lady
00:57:30and help her find her family.
00:57:36Lucian,
00:57:36why did you call me over?
00:57:38What if Elisa finds out?
00:57:39What exactly are you trying to do?
00:57:41I want to
00:57:42test my daughter-in-law.
00:57:45Haven't you tested her enough today?
00:57:47She's great.
00:57:47You saw that.
00:57:52Oh,
00:57:53Lucian.
00:57:54You're quite loyal,
00:57:56aren't you?
00:57:58That's enough.
00:58:01Fine.
00:58:03Look,
00:58:03um,
00:58:04Elisa is a very good girl,
00:58:07but
00:58:07it seems she doesn't even know that
00:58:09you like her,
00:58:10nor does anyone else know that
00:58:12she's your wife.
00:58:13Why are you keeping this marriage
00:58:15so secretive?
00:58:17I 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.
00:58:23Lucian,
00:58:24when did you become such a coward?
00:58:27Look,
00:58:28if you like her,
00:58:29just confess boldly.
00:58:31You don't want to wait
00:58:32till Elisa falls for
00:58:34some other guy
00:58:35before you feel regret,
00:58:36do you?
00:58:38Regret what?
00:58:42Nothing.
00:58:43Please,
00:58:43come sit.
00:58:48Elisa,
00:58:48I'm sorry.
00:58:51I was deceptive earlier.
00:58:53I...
00:58:54I'm actually
00:58:55Lucian's mother.
00:58:57What?
00:59:00Please,
00:59:01let me explain.
00:59:02Um,
00:59:03a few days ago,
00:59:04I got an anonymous text
00:59:06saying that some
00:59:07woman was
00:59:08trying to seduce
00:59:09Lucian,
00:59:09and
00:59:10I got afraid that
00:59:11he might get tricked.
00:59:13Anyway,
00:59:14Elisa,
00:59:15can you please
00:59:15forgive me?
00:59:20Yes,
00:59:20Mrs. Hawthorne,
00:59:21I understand.
00:59:22You're just looking out
00:59:23for your son.
00:59:23But I am concerned
00:59:24that the person
00:59:25who sent that text
00:59:26must have had
00:59:26bad intentions.
00:59:27I have an idea
00:59:28you sent him.
00:59:29Go ahead.
00:59:30Good.
00:59:31And Elisa,
00:59:32I heard that
00:59:33Lucian plans on
00:59:34taking you
00:59:35to a very fancy
00:59:36dinner tonight.
00:59:37Okay.
00:59:39There's actually
00:59:40something I want
00:59:40to talk to you about.
00:59:52Lucian,
00:59:52why aren't you eating?
00:59:55Yeah.
00:59:57Of course.
01:00:01Elisa,
01:00:02what do you want
01:00:02to ask me?
01:00:03If you want a divorce,
01:00:04it's not going to happen.
01:00:06Why would you think
01:00:07I want a divorce?
01:00:08I want a divorce.
01:00:13Okay.
01:00:15I've been meaning
01:00:16to ask you.
01:00:18You've liked Summer
01:00:19for ten years.
01:00:21I mean,
01:00:22why would you marry me?
01:00:23Why protect me
01:00:25at every turn?
01:00:26Hold on.
01:00:28You think I've liked Summer
01:00:29for ten years?
01:00:30Judging by his reaction,
01:00:32he must have been
01:00:33caught off guard.
01:00:34Elisa,
01:00:35you're being
01:00:35too presumptuous.
01:00:37Seriously,
01:00:37why would I have liked her?
01:00:38For ten years.
01:00:39Elisa,
01:00:40I've liked you
01:00:41for ten years.
01:00:44What?
01:00:46How could that possibly be true?
01:00:47For the first day we met,
01:00:49I fell for you.
01:00:50But because of the conflict
01:00:53between our parents,
01:00:54I chose to get them.
01:00:58I wanted to show you
01:00:59that I cared for you,
01:01:00but I couldn't.
01:01:01I was afraid that it would
01:01:02put you in danger.
01:01:04I'm really sorry,
01:01:06Elisa.
01:01:07All these years,
01:01:08I've suppressed my feelings for you.
01:01:11Fought tooth and nail
01:01:13to be the head
01:01:14of the Hawthorne family.
01:01:15And now it's taken me
01:01:18a decade to
01:01:18fully stand by you
01:01:21like this.
01:01:22So why now?
01:01:25And now it's taken me
01:01:26a decade to
01:01:27fully stand by you
01:01:29like this.
01:01:30So why now?
01:01:32I was afraid if I told you,
01:01:33you didn't like me,
01:01:35and we wouldn't even be
01:01:35colleagues anymore.
01:01:36So what's wrong?
01:01:39So when you sat next to me
01:01:41all those years ago,
01:01:41it wasn't because
01:01:42you didn't like your food?
01:01:47Hey, I, uh,
01:01:48don't really like this.
01:01:58Yeah, I...
01:01:59I'm really sorry I shouldn't...
01:02:01couldn't show you my feelings
01:02:02in the proper way.
01:02:05But then...
01:02:06Why did you write
01:02:08Summer that love letter
01:02:09back then?
01:02:10What love letter?
01:02:11I only remember
01:02:13delivering a
01:02:14party invitation
01:02:15to her from my parents.
01:02:17Well, why are all
01:02:17your passwords
01:02:18Summer's birthday?
01:02:19You mean 0903?
01:02:22What does that have
01:02:23to do with Summer?
01:02:24I don't even know
01:02:24her birthday.
01:02:25So then what's
01:02:260903 to you?
01:02:27Lisa 0903,
01:02:29September 3rd.
01:02:30It's the day
01:02:31we first met.
01:02:33So it was...
01:02:34It was all just
01:02:35a misunderstanding?
01:02:36So it was...
01:02:39It was all just
01:02:40a misunderstanding?
01:02:41Lisa...
01:02:42I love you.
01:02:45I know.
01:02:46I tricked you
01:02:47into marrying me.
01:02:48But my feelings for you
01:02:49are absolutely true.
01:02:51So...
01:02:52Can you try to accept me?
01:02:53I know that our marriage
01:02:57started as a contract
01:02:58but it...
01:02:59It feels real to me now.
01:03:02I love you.
01:03:03I want to be with you.
01:03:05I want to be with you now
01:03:07and I want to be with you
01:03:08when we're old and...
01:03:09I love you.
01:03:11I want to be with you now.
01:03:17You're finally mine.
01:03:24Yours.
01:03:25Hey, from now on, we're a true husband and wife.
01:03:39We don't have to keep our relationship secret in front of our colleagues anymore.
01:03:42Okay.
01:03:47Lucian, I...
01:03:49Elise, you...
01:03:51Summer, I'd like you to meet my wife.
01:03:53What?
01:03:55Elise 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 Elise.
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.
01:04:23And you're invited to dinner with my wife.
01:04:28Yay!
01:04:29Yay!
