00:00:00That's weird, the email's at 6.30. Well, I'm here.
00:00:21This place is huge. I hope I get this. I really need this job.
00:00:27You can go in. She will see you now.
00:00:39Good morning. I'm Anna and I'm excited to be here. Thought I'd see more people though.
00:00:47Oh, Anna. You're as dumb as ever.
00:00:53Well, well, well. If it isn't the filthy Anna, welcome to Luminous.
00:01:01I see. You're still wearing sad colours. We could have done a better job in your first interview.
00:01:07What are you guys doing here? What's going on?
00:01:11Shut it. We're here to conduct your interview, genius. We obviously work here.
00:01:17Unfortunately, you're not doing great in the first interview. Also, we have a strict no-trash policy.
00:01:29Why are you doing this? You're as mean as you were in high school. Let me go. I don't have time for this.
00:01:38But you need this job. So stay good like a little good girl.
00:01:45The CEO is back. He is in the building. Get out, Bill. My CEO is...
00:01:55Can someone explain to me why there's a woman on my shoes?
00:02:01Is this what happens in my company when I'm not around?
00:02:05Serious pleasure to have you here. Um, she was just on her way out.
00:02:09She came for an interview, but it's fair to say she isn't company material.
00:02:14You're being awfully quiet. Is it true you came in for an interview?
00:02:18Yes, sir.
00:02:19I'm the one who decides exactly if she's company material or not.
00:02:24Now, what's your name and why were you on my floor?
00:02:27She tripped on her way out.
00:02:29I wasn't talking to you, Jessica. The lady can answer for herself. You can talk to me.
00:02:38My name is Anna. I got an email saying I should come in for the interview.
00:02:43I was excited because I really need this job.
00:02:47Turns out it was just a stupid joke.
00:02:50A joke? What do you mean a joke?
00:02:54Let's just say your employees are the same mean kids they were years ago.
00:03:00I see. I can't say I'm not surprised, just disappointed.
00:03:08Well, Miss Anna, I'm sorry that you had to go through whatever these two buffoons have cooked up for you.
00:03:15And I'm sorry that I couldn't have been there to prevent you from going through that ordeal.
00:03:19The most I can do is give you a job.
00:03:24What are you talking about?
00:03:26How would you like to work for me, Miss Anna?
00:03:28You can resume work tomorrow as assistant to the CEO.
00:03:32Doesn't that sound good?
00:03:34Yes, sir.
00:03:40What is he planning?
00:03:44You'll explain to me why you thought it appropriate to choose an applicant like you did today.
00:03:49Sir, we didn't mean-
00:03:50Didn't mean to what? To humiliate her? To mock her? To laugh at someone who came here for an opportunity?
00:03:59We were just having a lot of fun. It wasn't something that serious. And we know her from way back.
00:04:04Sir, it was just harmless fun.
00:04:06Fun? You thought that was fun? That was cruel. And in this working environment there is no place for cruelty.
00:04:14With all due respect, sir, she isn't exactly our hire. She has no place here either.
00:04:21And that's not your decision to make. If I ever see you treat anyone like you did today, both of you are out.
00:04:29You will be so fast that you won't have time to go and pack away your desks. This is your last warning.
00:04:35Next time I catch you, you're done.
00:04:41What's his problem?
00:04:44I don't know. He's more than I expected, you know. He's a powerful man. And I can feel it.
00:04:52But there is something about him. Doesn't he feel familiar to you?
00:04:57Whatever. That's not important. What matters is that Anna is a problem.
00:05:04Let's make sure she regrets ever stepping foot in this building.
00:05:09Good morning, sir.
00:05:17Hey, good morning, Anna.
00:05:18I got you some coffee on my way to work. And here are some files you requested.
00:05:24You bought the coffee? You know we have a coffee machine in the break room, right?
00:05:30Crap.
00:05:31Oh, careful. You wouldn't want a coffee stain disaster to start the day now, would you?
00:05:35I am so sorry, sir. Guess I'm still fine in my footing.
00:05:40I get it. First days are always messy.
00:05:44I will do my best, sir. I mean it. I won't let you regret giving me a chance.
00:05:50Please, call me Lucas. Sir just makes me feel old.
00:05:55Tell me, Anna. Do you know me from before now?
00:05:59I don't think so, Lucas. I'm pretty sure I would remember someone like you.
00:06:17How does anyone get this thing to work?
00:06:20It's not a spaceship, you know.
00:06:23Damn it. You scared the shit out of me.
00:06:25Here, let me show you.
00:06:26Let me show you.
00:06:30I think I got it now. Thank you.
00:06:32You're doing great, Anna.
00:06:33Better than most on the first date.
00:06:45Daphne.
00:06:46Lucas, darling. I hope you're ready.
00:06:49I'll be in this city for a few days. Lucky you. I'm gonna be stopping by just to see you.
00:06:56Great. Can't wait.
00:06:57Can't wait.
00:07:11Here is your coffee, sir. Um, Lucas.
00:07:15Thank you. I can't see how well I look forward to my morning coffee, sir.
00:07:18It's my pleasure. I got you on the good stuff.
00:07:22Lucas? Surprise?
00:07:25It's not technically a surprise when you call ahead, Daphne.
00:07:30I didn't know you hired a new help.
00:07:34Help?
00:07:35Daphne, this is Anna. My new assistant. She's been a great help.
00:07:41Assistant? Interesting.
00:07:46I thought you had higher standards for hiring personal help around here.
00:07:53I'll leave you two to talk.
00:07:56No, no, no, Anna. Stay.
00:07:58Daphne, why exactly are you here?
00:08:01It can't just be to see me. How's the old man?
00:08:05Ah, the old man is fine. I'm just checking in.
00:08:09I thought we can have a lunch together. It's been too long since we caught up.
00:08:14As you can see, I'm swamped here. So maybe another time that's more convenient.
00:08:19Of course. I'm busy as always.
00:08:21You know how it is.
00:08:24In fact, how about you contact Anna and she'll fix you in with a time that's more available to me.
00:08:31Well, Anna, enjoy your position here. It's not often Lucas lets just anyone into his circle.
00:08:42Um, thank you, ma'am.
00:08:44You know, Lucas, not everyone has your best interests and there are so many gold diggers these days.
00:08:54Thanks. I'll keep that in mind, Daphne.
00:08:58We'll talk soon.
00:08:59Um, should I go?
00:09:00No, no. Stay, please. Let's continue with this work.
00:09:11Daphne, it's been a while.
00:09:12Jessica, you look... the same.
00:09:13What this about? You're not usually the let's have lunch type. In fact, I was sure you hated my guts.
00:09:30Anna still do, so let's keep the small talk. We both want the same thing, to get Anna away from Lucas.
00:09:38Finally, someone else sees it. That little nobody just acting like she belongs there. She's running her way into Lucas' heart.
00:09:51She doesn't belong, but you're right, she's getting too close to Lucas and that is a problem.
00:09:58Huh? Who's your target?
00:10:00Lucas is mine and has always been. Lucas and I are a perfect match, so I won't let any nobody assistant ruin that.
00:10:13Well, she's annoyingly resilient. Believe me, I've tried and Lucas seems to have a soft spot for her.
00:10:24Then try her. With my influence and your directness, we can make her quit.
00:10:30I'm listening. What's your plan?
00:10:35We'll hit her from both sides. At work, you gotta keep her busy, undermine her confidence, just make her feel out of place.
00:10:45Hmm, that's easy.
00:10:46And outside of work, I'll handle Lucas. I'll plant a doubt about her confidence and just remind him that she's beneath him.
00:10:58Divide and concur. I like it.
00:11:02Good. Let's keep it between us. Lucas can't know we're working together.
00:11:07You don't have to tell me twice. I can lose my job. For what? We deserve.
00:11:15I don't toast with a cup of coffee.
00:11:22Thank you for bringing me alone. I promise, I won't mess this up.
00:11:27You won't. Just be yourself. And you should give yourself more credit.
00:11:37So, I think you'd be very, very impressed.
00:11:43Your assistant this year, Mr. Gonzales?
00:11:46Yes, she is. We pride ourselves on having the best employees in this company.
00:12:02in this company and Anna she's a model example of that. Thank you very much for
00:12:09your time. Get home safe, okay? Bye-bye, bye-bye.
00:12:17You didn't have to say that back there. I did. It's true. You know it. They know it.
00:12:25Thanks. I wish you could tell that to high school me. Why?
00:12:31What can I say? I was bullied a lot. Kids can be cruel you know. Yeah, I know. It was
00:12:39terrible. I had no friends. There was this one kid though. He was shy and kind and
00:12:48was bullied a lot because of that. I don't even know his name. I wonder what
00:12:56happened to him. Maybe he turned out okay. I really hope so. He deserved better.
00:13:06Thanks, Lucas. I can't remember the last time. I just relaxed. You know what? Me neither.
00:13:14Me neither. You know, for a CEO, you are pretty down to earth. And you're pretty amazing for an assistant.
00:13:22Oh, whoa. Where are you going? Excuse me? I need to get this to Lucas. Get out of my way.
00:13:33Oh, it's Lucas now. Look at you. Little miss assistant. Who knew crawling on the floor could get you promotion?
00:13:41The CEO might have bought you sobbing story, but we know the truth. You don't belong here.
00:13:47I earned my spot here. Just like everyone else. Did you? Or did you just remind Lucas of some pathetic
00:13:54sob story from high school? Oh, poor bullet Anna. Boo hoo.
00:14:00You think your life was miserable back then? That was nothing. Oh, honey. We've got resources now. And you've got enemies in high places. Just imagine what we can do to your career.
00:14:12Why? Why are you doing this? You've got everything you wanted. Why am I still a threat to you?
00:14:19Because you don't deserve to be here. Simple. Quit, Anna. Or we'll make sure your life here is just as bad as it was in high school.
00:14:34Oh, no. You better pick that up, assistant.
00:14:49Anna. Everything okay? Yes. I'm still getting used to the office. It's just so big.
00:15:06If anyone ever gives you any problems here, you can come to me. Understand?
00:15:12Yes, sir.
00:15:14Hey, Dad. I've been thinking about Lucas again. What about him?
00:15:30Well, remember you told me to settle down and start looking for a partner? I think Lucas might be the one. Think about it.
00:15:41He's intelligent, ambitious, and his company has been taken off. You told that to me.
00:15:49Well, he has exceeded even my expectations.
00:15:52Exactly. He's the ideal partner for me. He's everything you raved about, and you basically shaped him to be so.
00:16:00Well, you're not wrong. He has proven himself to be more than capable in every sense.
00:16:06However, does he share the same feelings? Does he see it that way?
00:16:12Well, not yet, but he will after you speak to him.
00:16:17He needs to see how well we complement each other, and I will be his obvious choice.
00:16:25Well, the match does make sense. Lucas is a stubborn man. He might not see things your way immediately, might not be.
00:16:34Then we'll show him. Invite him for dinner, Daddy.
00:16:40Very well. I'll speak with him tomorrow. I must say that Lucas isn't easily convinced.
00:16:46So, if he does agree, it's because you convinced him, not because I said.
00:16:51Leave it convincing to me, Dad.
00:16:54Mr. Anderson, sir.
00:17:11Good morning, Lucas, my boy. I hope I'm not interrupting.
00:17:14No, no, not at all, sir. You know it's always a pleasure when you call me. How can I help?
00:17:19I wanted to invite you for dinner tomorrow evening. Just you, Daphne, and me. Nothing formal, son.
00:17:24Just a chance to talk and catch up.
00:17:27Well, dinner sounds like a lovely idea. I'd be honoured.
00:17:30Seven sharp. Daphne is looking forward to it.
00:17:33Sounds great. Looking forward to it.
00:17:34Good. See you tomorrow, Lucas.
00:17:37Goodbye, sir.
00:17:50Anna, can you come in a moment?
00:17:54You need me, sir? Mr. Lucas?
00:17:58I've been invited for dinner tomorrow night at the Anderson's, my mentor's house.
00:18:03And I was wondering if you might accompany me. I'm sure Daphne will enjoy the company.
00:18:07I appreciate the offer, but I don't think that's appropriate.
00:18:14Appropriate? You say it's a personal dinner and I would probably feel out of place.
00:18:21I see. Well, thank you for being honest.
00:18:25I'm sure it will go well, sir. You don't need me there.
00:18:29I'm sure it will. Well, thank you, Anna. That will be all.
00:18:33Lucas, it's always a pleasure having you around.
00:18:43But you've been so busy making great strides that you hardly stop by anymore.
00:18:48I am sorry, sir.
00:18:49It's just I've been out of town for a few months and ever since I've come back
00:18:53I've been so busy organizing the operations at Luminous, but I really do owe you everything, sir.
00:19:00Oh, so stop it. I've always said you're one of my brightest panties.
00:19:04And that's why you're here tonight, Lucas.
00:19:08Father and I want you to feel like family.
00:19:14Thank you. I appreciate it a lot. And I really do consider both of you as family, too.
00:19:22Well, Lucas, you've made a remarkable life for yourself.
00:19:26And I think that success is best shared, don't you, Lee?
00:19:31You're right, sir. Life is better with the right people.
00:19:37In that spirit, I think you and Daphne would make a wonderful team.
00:19:42Not just in business, but in life.
00:19:46Father, you're embarrassing him.
00:19:50I'm honored in your confidence in me, sir.
00:19:54And your daughter Daphne is an extraordinary woman, but I just...
00:19:58I think you're extraordinary, too.
00:20:00And you know exactly what Father is talking about.
00:20:05We belong together.
00:20:07That's kind of you to say, Daphne. I'm really flattered, but I just...
00:20:11Well, Lucas, think about it.
00:20:15And, um, just think that you'll be part of this family, and you'll be my son.
00:20:23Thank you, sir. Thank you. I definitely will think about you.
00:20:29I... I meant what I said. I think we'll be good together.
00:20:38No, no, no. We'll be perfect.
00:20:41I don't know what to say, Daphne. I just... I need to go.
00:20:45No, no, no.
00:20:55Anna, can you come in for a moment, please?
00:21:01You need it, please, sir?
00:21:03Yes, Anna, please take a seat.
00:21:05I need to vent for a minute.
00:21:09Since when did you start venting?
00:21:11This sounds serious.
00:21:13Wait, is it about yesterday's dinner?
00:21:17You have no idea.
00:21:18Hell, I had no idea.
00:21:20I just walked in there and...
00:21:23Well, what happened?
00:21:25It was so awkward.
00:21:27Your Mr. Anderson practically suggested that I should be together with Daphne.
00:21:31As a couple.
00:21:33Um, well, I could have told you that.
00:21:37She has been circling you like a hawk since the day I started here.
00:21:42Mr. Anderson thinks it's a great idea.
00:21:45He's my mentor.
00:21:46I just owe him so much.
00:21:48Well, can you blame her?
00:21:54Look at you, Lucas.
00:21:56What woman wouldn't want you?
00:21:58You're smart, successful.
00:22:02And, well, you're you.
00:22:06Thanks for the confidence boost, but that's just not the problem.
00:22:10What is?
00:22:12The problem is...
00:22:14I'm thinking of someone else.
00:22:17You do?
00:22:18Yeah, but I don't know how to let Daphne down without disappointing Mr. Anderson.
00:22:23I see what you mean.
00:22:25That could be tricky.
00:22:26I just don't want to hurt anyone.
00:22:29Especially not her or him.
00:22:31Hey, it's alright, Lucas.
00:22:35You will do the right thing.
00:22:37If we adjust the timeline here,
00:22:41we can meet the targets without pushing the team too hard.
00:22:44Good idea.
00:22:46You really have a good eye for detail.
00:22:52I hope I'm not interrupting Lucas.
00:22:55Daphne, this is unexpected.
00:22:58What brings you here on the monster?
00:23:00I trust you to skip the pleasantries.
00:23:02I assume you've given it some thought.
00:23:06To be honest, I've not had any time, Daphne.
00:23:14And is she what you've been so busy with?
00:23:18My name is Anna, Mr. Anderson.
00:23:20We've met before.
00:23:21I'm Mr. Lucas' assistant.
00:23:23I know exactly what you are.
00:23:25I can feel the stench from a mile away.
00:23:27That's enough.
00:23:29That is not enough.
00:23:31What's your plan?
00:23:33I can see the way she's looking at you.
00:23:35You think you can just warm your way into his office?
00:23:39Into his life, maybe.
00:23:42I didn't mean.
00:23:45Save it.
00:23:47Women like you know exactly what they're doing.
00:23:49I have to go.
00:23:51We'll cross the line, Daphne.
00:23:55I'm just protecting what's mine.
00:23:57I am not yours.
00:24:06Anna, stop, wait.
00:24:11You can't let her get to you.
00:24:13Here, let me drive you home.
00:24:21I'm so sorry you had to see all of that.
00:24:23Daphne had no right to talk to you that way.
00:24:27I still can't believe she said that.
00:24:29It's fine.
00:24:31I should have expected it.
00:24:33I don't exactly fit in there.
00:24:35Don't say that.
00:24:37You fit in there more than any of them.
00:24:39More than you know.
00:24:40Why would you defend me like that?
00:24:42You're supposed to be on her side.
00:24:45She's your...
00:24:47That's not true.
00:24:49I know you.
00:24:51I've known you longer than you know.
00:24:55I know you to be kind and real.
00:24:57More real than any of them.
00:24:59How could you possibly know that?
00:25:01It's a long story and I promise I'll tell you soon.
00:25:06Just trust me for now.
00:25:08But right now we have to get you home.
00:25:11Thank you Lucas for everything.
00:25:14You didn't have to do any of this.
00:25:17Any time.
00:25:19Good night Lucas.
00:25:20Good night Anne.
00:25:21You should have seen her earlier.
00:25:25I've been turning up the heat.
00:25:27Making sure she knows she doesn't belong here.
00:25:31She's putting on the brave face.
00:25:34There's nothing new.
00:25:35Just not like that.
00:25:37I think she's winning him over.
00:25:41Lucas and Pamela, they're getting closer.
00:25:45What is that supposed to mean?
00:25:48Just another day I overheard him talking to her.
00:25:53He was complaining about the dinner and something with your father's proposal.
00:25:59He said that?
00:26:01Word for word.
00:26:03And he didn't sound happy about it.
00:26:09This cunt doesn't know who she's messing with.
00:26:12She's interfering somewhere she shouldn't.
00:26:15So, what's the plan?
00:26:18I'll handle it.
00:26:27Daphne, haven't you done enough?
00:26:28What do you want now?
00:26:30I need to see you.
00:26:31Right now.
00:26:32It's late and frankly I'm not in the mood.
00:26:34This is going to have to wait.
00:26:35No.
00:26:36It won't.
00:26:37Meet me at my father's club.
00:26:39I'll be waiting.
00:26:49Daphne, I'm here.
00:26:50What's the origin?
00:26:51It took you long enough.
00:26:53Yeah, I was on my way home.
00:26:56What's this about?
00:26:58Don't play dumb with me, Lucas.
00:27:00You know exactly what this is about.
00:27:02Listen, if this is about Anna, then...
00:27:04Of course it's about her.
00:27:06Do you think I haven't noticed?
00:27:08You're spending too much time together.
00:27:10This is embarrassing.
00:27:11Do you realize how crazy you sound?
00:27:14Anna's just my assistant and that's all there is to it.
00:27:18Don't insult me, Lucas.
00:27:20At least have the decency to own up.
00:27:22I saw the way you looked at her tonight.
00:27:26Let me remind you of something you might have forgotten.
00:27:30My father gave you everything.
00:27:33He mentored you.
00:27:34He invested in you.
00:27:36Without him, you wouldn't even have your company.
00:27:39You owe him.
00:27:41You owe us.
00:27:43Daphne, you know I appreciate everything that your father has done for you.
00:27:49His generosity.
00:27:50But that doesn't mean that...
00:27:51It means.
00:27:52Whatever I say, it means.
00:27:55I like you, Lucas.
00:27:59I'd hope you would come around.
00:28:02The truth is you have no choice.
00:28:05You're mine.
00:28:07And that's all that matters.
00:28:09Can you hear yourself think?
00:28:12I'm not some dog that you can just yell at to go running around all the time.
00:28:17Get yourself together, Lucas.
00:28:19If you don't, I will tell my father how ungrateful you are.
00:28:24Let's see how loyal he stays to someone who spits on his generosity.
00:28:36Good morning, Anna.
00:28:37Doing well?
00:28:38Good morning, sir.
00:28:40Sorry, Lucas.
00:28:43I just want to thank you for driving me home yesterday.
00:28:47It was kind of you.
00:28:49You didn't have to.
00:28:50It was nothing.
00:28:51I'm just doing what Emma would have.
00:28:53Still, it meant a lot to me.
00:28:57I don't know how I was planning to get home after running off.
00:29:01Anna, what's important is that you got home safe.
00:29:04But I would appreciate if my employees did not leave before working hours close.
00:29:09All right.
00:29:10I will leave you to your work then.
00:29:18Well, well, if it isn't the employee of the month.
00:29:22What do you want, Jessica?
00:29:24Nothing crazy.
00:29:25I just want to glut.
00:29:27What are you talking about?
00:29:29Daphne.
00:29:30She's got her clothes in him.
00:29:32She doesn't like competition.
00:29:35I am not competing with anyone.
00:29:38Oh, sweetie.
00:29:39You don't have to be.
00:29:41Just existing near him is enough for her to consider your friend.
00:29:45From what I hear, she's got a little chat with Lucas last night.
00:29:50And taught him to keep his distance or else.
00:29:54Why are you telling me this?
00:29:56Because I think it will be hilarious to watch you crash and burn your way over your head.
00:30:14Lucas, you've come a long way.
00:30:17I'm proud of you.
00:30:19I've been hearing some troubling reports.
00:30:25Troubling, sir?
00:30:27I hear you become distracted, spending too much time with your assistant.
00:30:35Daphne is concerned, and frankly, I agree.
00:30:39Mr. Anderson, Anna is just my assistant.
00:30:42And you know I'm not the type of guy to go messing around, especially with work.
00:30:47That's what I've been telling Daphne.
00:30:50Be careful, Lucas.
00:30:51You owe this family and you owe me.
00:30:55I believe this information is audited.
00:31:11What kind of pressure you're running here?
00:31:13I hear.
00:31:15I don't.
00:31:19It must be an oversight on Anna's part.
00:31:21She's new.
00:31:23I apologize for this mix-up and we'll correct this immediately.
00:31:27And listen, I know you've flown here from very, very far away to be here with us today.
00:31:32But let me tell you, I have all the information in my head.
00:31:35So there's no need for us to delay this anymore.
00:31:40You called me, sir?
00:31:41I know you sabotaged Anna.
00:31:43I don't know what you're talking about.
00:31:45The girl is clearly unfit to be here.
00:31:47I'm the one who decides who's fit to work in this company and who isn't.
00:31:50But sir-
00:31:51Don't do it again, Jessica.
00:31:53Or else.
00:31:55All of you.
00:31:56Now get her.
00:32:25Sir, Lucas, um, can I talk to you?
00:32:34What's your mind?
00:32:35I am sorry for appearing unprofessional in front of a client yesterday.
00:32:41But I need to know, why didn't you defend me?
00:32:46You saw what they did!
00:32:49It's... it's complicated.
00:32:52Complicated?
00:32:53So you're just gonna let them humiliate me?
00:32:56I thought I could count on you.
00:32:58Of course you can count on me, Anna.
00:33:00You know that.
00:33:01You're just like them.
00:33:04I thought you were different.
00:33:05I'm nothing like them!
00:33:07Nothing!
00:33:08I... I...
00:33:10Should have said something yesterday, Anna.
00:33:13I'm sorry.
00:33:23Maybe Nathan and Jessica are right.
00:33:46Maybe this isn't the place for me.
00:33:48You're damn right.
00:33:49I am right.
00:33:50You're long enough to realize that.
00:33:52What are you doing here?
00:33:54This is an employee's lounge genius.
00:33:57The better question is, what are you still doing here?
00:33:59I don't have to tell you anything.
00:34:01You've done enough already.
00:34:03Oh, baby.
00:34:04The fun's just getting started.
00:34:05You better buckle up.
00:34:07Oh...
00:34:08Oh...
00:34:09Oh...
00:34:10Oh...
00:34:11Oh...
00:34:12Oh...
00:34:13Oh...
00:34:14Oh...
00:34:15Oh...
00:34:36Someone is in the mood.
00:34:38You're late.
00:34:39I assume you had time to think about what we discussed.
00:34:45I'm not here to play games, Daphne.
00:34:48Tell me what this is about.
00:34:49So let's get straight to you.
00:34:51Have you decided to do the right thing?
00:34:54Toss Anna out of the company and just stop this nonsense?
00:34:59The right thing?
00:35:01You mean bending to your every whim?
00:35:05You can't afford to mock me.
00:35:07Let me remind you, Lucas.
00:35:09The clock is ticking.
00:35:11And my father won't hesitate to pull his support if he finds...
00:35:16What's daddy going to do, Daphne?
00:35:18How dare you?
00:35:19No, I've had enough of this.
00:35:22Your father may have helped you, but I built my own success.
00:35:26And I'm tired of letting you or anyone hold that over me.
00:35:32You're making a mistake, Lucas.
00:35:35The only mistake I ever made was letting you think you could control me.
00:35:39You're mine and I can control you.
00:35:41Grow up, Daphne.
00:35:43The world doesn't revolve around you.
00:35:45And you.
00:35:46Wait.
00:35:47You can't leave.
00:35:48Watch me.
00:35:49Hello?
00:35:50Lucas?
00:35:51Hey.
00:35:52I hope it's not too late.
00:35:53No, it's fine.
00:35:54What's going on?
00:35:55I just wanted to apologize now.
00:35:56For everything you've been through because of people like Daphne.
00:35:58I just wanted to apologize now.
00:35:59For everything you've been through because of people like Daphne.
00:36:00It's not your fault, Lucas.
00:36:13You didn't ask for any of it.
00:36:15But I didn't stop you, Lucas.
00:36:17You didn't ask for any of it.
00:36:20I didn't want to stop you, Lucas.
00:36:21I didn't want to get the most unforeseen.
00:36:24I don't want to get the most out of my way.
00:36:27But I just wanted to apologize now.
00:36:29But I didn't stop it either.
00:36:31I spent so long being afraid of going back to who I was,
00:36:34to the person people look down on.
00:36:37I can't imagine anyone looking down on you.
00:36:41But then there's you, who reminded me that there's nothing wrong with who I was.
00:36:46Nothing wrong with standing up for myself or the people who matter.
00:36:50Lucas...
00:36:52I'd like to talk to you in person, if you're okay with it.
00:36:56Fine. Where should we meet?
00:37:12Thanks for coming.
00:37:14It was unexpected.
00:37:17I still can't believe I drove all the way out here.
00:37:20Goodnight, Anna.
00:37:21Goodnight, Lucas.
00:37:26Lucas?
00:37:28You didn't have to do this.
00:37:30It's okay.
00:37:31I wanted to.
00:37:32Let's just call it...
00:37:33Carpool.
00:37:34Oh!
00:37:35Lucas?
00:37:36You didn't have to do this.
00:37:38It's okay.
00:37:39I wanted to.
00:37:40Let's just call it...
00:37:41Carpool.
00:37:42Carpool.
00:37:43You're really risking being late for me.
00:37:45I know the boss.
00:37:46He'll let us late.
00:37:47Hehehe.
00:37:48Hehehe.
00:37:49Hehehe.
00:37:50Hehehe.
00:37:51Hehehe.
00:37:52Hehehe.
00:37:53Hehehe.
00:37:54Hehehe.
00:37:55Hehehe.
00:37:56Hehehe.
00:37:57Hehehe.
00:37:58Hehehe.
00:37:59Hehehe.
00:38:00Hehehe.
00:38:01Hehehe.
00:38:02Hehehe.
00:38:03Hehehe.
00:38:04Hehehe.
00:38:05You're really risking being late for me.
00:38:06I know the boss.
00:38:08He'll let us late.
00:38:10Hehehe.
00:38:11Hehehe.
00:38:15That was just it.
00:38:17Great.
00:38:26Did he come in together?
00:38:28Looks like it. Wonder what's going on there.
00:38:32This has to be some kind of a joke.
00:38:34Anna? With Lucas?
00:38:36She's acting like she own the place now.
00:38:39It's disgusting.
00:38:41Eh, who knew?
00:38:42The girl we used to shove into the locker room
00:38:44was cozying up with the CEO.
00:38:47I guess we underestimated her.
00:38:49This isn't over.
00:38:56I'm going to talk now.
00:39:03Daphne, what are you doing?
00:39:04You're not going to barge into my office.
00:39:06I need to know what is this about?
00:39:09Bringing her to work like some...
00:39:11You're embarrassing yourself.
00:39:14You're embarrassing me.
00:39:15You're supposed to be better than this, Lucas.
00:39:18That's enough, Daphne.
00:39:19Who I decide to drive to my office
00:39:22is my own damn business.
00:39:24That is not enough.
00:39:26You think you can just toss aside everything
00:39:28and parade around like that?
00:39:30I said that's enough, Daphne.
00:39:33I don't know what you think you're entitled to
00:39:36but it ends right now.
00:39:38Lucas, I...
00:39:39I said that's enough!
00:39:41You can't just barge in here
00:39:44and talk about my decision,
00:39:45my office, my company's decisions.
00:39:47You've crossed the line.
00:39:49Now get out.
00:39:51So...
00:40:01The boss has teeth after all.
00:40:10With me here.
00:40:11I'll be right back.
00:40:12Are you sure?
00:40:14I'm right here.
00:40:15Is your name?
00:40:16Thanks.
00:40:17I'll be fine.
00:40:27Lucas, sit.
00:40:28Sir, I'm just...
00:40:29I assume you know why I called you here.
00:40:38I have a good idea, sir.
00:40:40Daphne told me everything.
00:40:43How you've rejected her.
00:40:46You embarrassed her.
00:40:48You owe this.
00:40:50You jeopardize in this family's partnership.
00:40:54To be frank, sir, this was never about business.
00:40:57Daphne and I...
00:40:59Were not a good match.
00:41:02And trying to force something that just isn't there
00:41:05is just going to end badly.
00:41:07You don't get to dictate terms here.
00:41:09Lucas, I made you.
00:41:11Without my support, you'd still be dealing for scraps.
00:41:15And I appreciate everything you've done for me, sir.
00:41:18But that doesn't mean I owe you my life.
00:41:21You're throwing everything away.
00:41:23For what?
00:41:24For some assistance?
00:41:25You think you could survive without my backing?
00:41:27I'm willing to take that risk.
00:41:29I'm not willing to sacrifice my integrity
00:41:31or let anyone dictate my choices.
00:41:33No matter what the cost.
00:41:36You'll regret this, Lucas, by my words.
00:41:42Well, well, well.
00:41:44Look who's here.
00:41:47Enjoy a little field trip.
00:41:50And I hope you're ready for what's coming.
00:41:54You're braver than I thought, Anna.
00:41:57Following Lucas like a little shadow.
00:42:02I am here because he asked me to come.
00:42:05Lucas doesn't belong in your world.
00:42:08And you certainly don't belong in his.
00:42:11I am not trying to take him away from me, Daphne.
00:42:16Take him away from me?
00:42:18Aren't you confident?
00:42:20Let me make something clear.
00:42:23Lucas is mine.
00:42:25All I'm saying is I am not a threat.
00:42:30The only threat here is me.
00:42:33Don't mess with me.
00:42:35Or I'll wreck you and him.
00:42:38You can say whatever you want about me, Daphne.
00:42:42But if you try to hurt Lucas,
00:42:44I swear I'll make you regret it.
00:42:47So, you've got some fighting you after all.
00:42:53I thought all of this was bullied out from you in high school.
00:42:57You don't scare me, Daphne.
00:42:59I see right through all of the tough talk.
00:43:02Shut up!
00:43:03You don't know what you're talking about!
00:43:05Oh, but I do.
00:43:07You're scared to be rejected for the first time in your life.
00:43:12You think you're clever, huh?
00:43:15Don't you?
00:43:17I think you underestimate me.
00:43:20Enjoy a little moment in the sun.
00:43:24It won't last long.
00:43:26Rough day, hon.
00:43:37You could say that.
00:43:39I can't say I'm surprised.
00:43:42So, I take it Daphne found you when I was up speaking to her father?
00:43:46She tried threatening me.
00:43:48Made me feel small.
00:43:50Like I don't belong in your world.
00:43:54I'm so sorry.
00:43:55You didn't deserve that.
00:43:56It's okay.
00:43:57I kind of stood up to her.
00:44:01Especially when she started threatening you.
00:44:04You did?
00:44:05Well, I wasn't going to let her push me around.
00:44:09Especially when it ignored you.
00:44:12I mean, I knew you were tough.
00:44:15But to stand up to Daphne?
00:44:17That's impressive.
00:44:19Thank you, Anne.
00:44:22It's nice to know that someone has my back.
00:44:24You know what?
00:44:26I think we deserve a break.
00:44:28How about we stop for some lunch on the way back?
00:44:30Lunch?
00:44:31Yeah.
00:44:32I think we deserve it after the morning we've had.
00:44:34Okay.
00:44:35Lunch sounds great.
00:44:41You needed me, sir?
00:44:42Anna.
00:44:43Come in and sit down.
00:44:44Anna.
00:44:44Because you're new here you might not know this.
00:44:52But I usually don't spend that amount of time in the headquarters.
00:44:57The reason I'm here is because I've seen some inconsistencies.
00:45:04What do you mean?
00:45:07There's been some inconsistencies.
00:45:10Some money trails that just lead to nowhere.
00:45:13And I suspect someone's in the office is behind it.
00:45:16So you mean fraud?
00:45:18Or worse.
00:45:20I couldn't quite pinpoint it from afar.
00:45:22That's why I had to come here and see myself.
00:45:26Does anyone else know?
00:45:28No.
00:45:29The fewer people that know the better.
00:45:31Then let me help you.
00:45:34This could be dangerous.
00:45:36The person who's behind this won't like the fact that we're poking around.
00:45:40I know but I want to help.
00:45:43And if there is a problem we will fix it.
00:45:46Alright.
00:45:48I'll show the inconsistencies that I've got so far and we'll follow it till the end.
00:45:54They will paint a bigger picture.
00:45:57Exactly.
00:45:58I'll give you full access to the files I've flagged and see if you can spot any inconsistencies
00:46:03or see if anything's off.
00:46:05I'll start tonight.
00:46:07Anna.
00:46:15From now on every department will undergo a thorough audit.
00:46:18And I will personally review the results myself.
00:46:21Isn't this drastic?
00:46:23And not like this could disrupt operations.
00:46:25A little bit of disruption is better than corruption.
00:46:29Don't you think?
00:46:30We're all on the same side Lucas.
00:46:32You don't have to treat it like a witch hunt.
00:46:34If there's nothing wrong and there's nothing to hide, is there?
00:46:39Get out of my office.
00:46:41It's getting too close.
00:46:57What if he finds out?
00:46:59Then we make sure he does it.
00:47:01You mean clean up everything?
00:47:03Exactly.
00:47:04We erase all the trails, adjust the numbers and tie up loose ends.
00:47:09I don't know.
00:47:10Maybe we should come clean.
00:47:11I could talk to him.
00:47:12And what?
00:47:13Risk us all turning us in?
00:47:15Huh?
00:47:16What do you think he's just going to let it slide once he sees the whole picture?
00:47:20Maybe.
00:47:21Maybe.
00:47:22No!
00:47:23We stick to the plan.
00:47:24Keep him distracted.
00:47:26And I will handle the things.
00:47:28What do you mean by handle?
00:47:30Just let me.
00:47:32Leave it to me, okay?
00:47:33I'll get to the bottom of this.
00:47:52Lucas, I know you're angry, but I think you need to think this through.
00:47:58This company used to stand for something good, but now I find my own people are stealing
00:48:05money?
00:48:08I know, but we will fix this.
00:48:11You have already found out who's behind it.
00:48:13This is the first step.
00:48:15Fix this?
00:48:16How can we fix this?
00:48:17These are people I trusted.
00:48:19By holding them accountable.
00:48:22Losing your head now will only make it harder for us to find out who's behind it.
00:48:28You're right.
00:48:29I need to keep my head.
00:48:35But how do we catch them?
00:48:37We don't even know their identities.
00:48:39They've not made a single mistake.
00:48:43They might be smart, but we will be smarter.
00:48:47What do you suggest?
00:48:49We will give them something they can't resist.
00:48:53We'll set a trap for them.
00:48:56Do you think they'll fall for it?
00:48:58I mean, they know I'm on this witch hunt right now.
00:49:01They are after the money, right?
00:49:05They may be smart enough to cover their tracks, and they might hide it well, but they are still
00:49:16after the money.
00:49:17Your money.
00:49:18You know what?
00:49:19You're right.
00:49:20I mean, after all this, they are just thieves.
00:49:22Just they want to follow the money.
00:49:25Yeah.
00:49:26Trust me.
00:49:27They will fall for it.
00:49:29And you will catch them red-handed.
00:49:31With their dirty paws in the cookie jar.
00:49:35They are.
00:49:36You are.
00:49:37They are.
00:49:38Oh, you're right.
00:49:39They are.
00:49:40I'm sorry.
00:49:41You are.
00:49:42I'm sorry.
00:49:43I'm sorry.
00:49:44You are.
00:49:45Lukas? Lukas! Lukas! Lukas, can you hear me?
00:50:10Hello. Yes, my boss just collapsed. Luminous.
00:50:16Are you his colleague?
00:50:18Yeah, we are his employees. I found him in the office. How is he?
00:50:23He is stable for now, but we can't say for sure. We found traces of poisonous substances in his liver.
00:50:31Are you saying Lukas was poisoned? How?
00:50:35We are running further tests to learn more about that, but I suggest you to inform the authorities.
00:50:42Lukas was poisoned.
00:50:44You! What did you do to him?
00:50:48What are you talking about?
00:50:50You was the last one person in his office.
00:50:53Yeah, and you are very unusually close to him. Do you expect us to ignore that?
00:50:57Are you serious? I found him!
00:51:00How convenient!
00:51:02If you think I've hurt Lukas, you know nothing about me!
00:51:10What happened to my Lukas?
00:51:12I am sure that Jessica told you everything you wanted to know.
00:51:17Jessica told me that you poisoned him.
00:51:19I didn't!
00:51:20That's what I think, too. You don't have it in you. You're far too weak for that.
00:51:27So, why are you here? Why talking to me?
00:51:32I came to tell you that whoever did this won't get away with that.
00:51:38Lukas is mine. Nobody touches him except me.
00:51:44Who would ever do this to you? I am so confused.
00:51:49You really are naive. So innocent. I see why Lukas wants you around.
00:51:57What are you talking about?
00:51:59You and Lukas were in the middle of a witch hunt.
00:52:02Lukas wanted to find those who were allegedly stealing from him.
00:52:07I think Lukas might have come too close.
00:52:11They poisoned him? Those thieves poisoned him?
00:52:15It certainly seems so.
00:52:19Just know this. If they can aim at Lukas, what makes you think you aim next?
00:52:28Think about it.
00:52:30He's stable for now, but he's not showing any signs of waking up.
00:52:44Lukas is strong. He'll pull through.
00:52:47I will find out who did this to you. I swear.
00:53:00Anna, how's Lukas?
00:53:04He is fighting.
00:53:06Yeah, he does that. If there's anything I can do to help, just say a word.
00:53:13I will let you know if anything comes up.
00:53:16Good. Keep me in the loop. Like it or not, but Lukas is an investment to me and my father.
00:53:24And we take care of our investment.
00:53:28Don't call him that.
00:53:30Hey, I'm not the enemy here. We both want the same thing.
00:53:36Please, just go. I just can't right now. Please, just leave.
00:53:42Nathan, what are you hiding?
00:54:05All of these transactions to untraceable accounts.
00:54:10Nathan, you're not as clever as you think.
00:54:14Good.
00:54:15You definitely had some major help.
00:54:19Anna?
00:54:24What are you still doing here?
00:54:26I'm going through company's records. I'm going to finish what Lukas started.
00:54:30It's probably just an error that happened when I'm putting. Mistakes happen sometimes.
00:54:37This looks deliberate, Jessica. If you know something, Jessica, now is the time to speak up.
00:54:46I don't know anything. Why do you even ask me that?
00:54:53I better let you work. Just take it easy. You're scaring some of the faults.
00:54:59Those with something to hide. Better be afraid.
00:55:08Nathan's name keeps popping up. But who else is involved?
00:55:12I figured you'd still be here. Any leads?
00:55:25Not yet. But I will find whoever did this.
00:55:29Yes, of course you will. Let me know if I can help.
00:55:43I'll find them, Lukas. I promise.
00:55:50Nathan's name keeps appearing. But it doesn't make any sense.
00:55:54He can't be doing this alone.
00:56:00Hey, Anna.
00:56:03How is this going?
00:56:07What do you want, Jessica? I don't have time for this.
00:56:11Don't push yourself so hard.
00:56:14Since when did you start caring?
00:56:18What do you know about these transactions?
00:56:20Um, Nathan handles that department, you know.
00:56:25Maybe he can explain you better.
00:56:28You've been signing off some of these transactions, Jessica.
00:56:33What's going on?
00:56:35It's not a procedure. Nathan tells me to sign off.
00:56:40And I do. Because I assume everything is in order.
00:56:42Everything is in order.
00:57:00We'll move the rest of the money soon. Just stay quiet.
00:57:04Anna's already asking questions about you. She's not as clueless as you think.
00:57:09I'll protect you, Lukas. No matter what it takes.
00:57:22of the money soon. Just stay quiet. Anna's already asking questions about you. She's not as
00:57:28clueless as you think. I'll protect you, Lucas. No matter what it takes.
00:57:40Mason signed off on those transfers. And he got Jessica to sign on it too.
00:57:46Where did the money go to? I can't find any record of that. How could he be doing this? And
00:57:58who is he sending all this cash to? Anna's poking around the financial again. What are we going
00:58:08to do? We're not going to do anything. She's not going to find anything because we've covered
00:58:13out of her asses. But what if? If she gets too close, I'll handle her too, okay? That
00:58:20that mean, did you pause on Lucas? Were you the one who did that? Stop asking me stupid questions.
00:58:29I said I'll handle it, and I did. That's all you need to know. You hurt him. You hurt Lucas.
00:58:39You sound just like Anna right now. So naive. I did what I had to do to cover our asses.
00:58:48Okay? Now stop whining and get out of my office.
00:58:56It's taking so long. Anna is getting closer every day, and why are we meeting in this dark
00:59:02parking lot? We have to avoid ice. We're all under heat. As for Anna, we've got it under
00:59:08control. She's smart, but not smart enough to connect the dots. She's closer than you
00:59:14think. You keep underestimating her, and she can go in us to rest. I told you to handle
00:59:24it. If she figures out I'm involved, that is your problem. Remember? You wanted to end
00:59:32on this. You came to us. We shouldn't fighting ourselves. Our enemy is Anna. We are underestimating
00:59:42her. Well, she shouldn't have gotten that job. Damn there, Lucas. What's done is done.
00:59:50What's done is done. How do we get rid of her? I told you to handle it. If she figures
00:59:58out I'm involved, that is your problem. Remember? Daphne? You too? How deep does this rabbit
01:00:08hole go? I am so close, Lucas. Just hold on. Lucas? Can you hear me? I'll end this. I promise.
01:00:36Anna, what brings you here? Nothing much. I just needed some help understanding these
01:00:53reports. This? This is nothing. It's just routine transactions. Routine?
01:01:05The amounts and frequency don't seem routine to me. You authorized them. Look, Anna, you
01:01:15wouldn't understand. See, Lucas trusted me to handle these complex things. This is why
01:01:21I get paid so much. So Lucas knew about all of this? Lucas knew about the offshore accounts?
01:01:28Let's just say that Lucas doesn't know that no one hurt him. Or didn't in this case.
01:01:35It was you. You! Careful now. You don't want to go around pointing fingers when you are the prime suspect.
01:01:44I didn't poison Lucas. And you know that. Of course not. But what matters is others don't.
01:01:53When they look at you, they see some opportunistic cold digger. They see someone who tried to kill her boss after warming herself.
01:02:02Now, this is nothing. I don't want to know that. And she's not just how you understand how they did.
01:02:13But I don't want to know that. And I don't know that too. And she can tell you about me to do it.
