00:00:00That's weird. The email said 6.30. Well, I'm here.
00:00:21This place is huge. I hope I get this. I really need this job.
00:00:28You can go in. She will see you now.
00:00:41Good morning. I'm Anna and I'm excited to be here.
00:00:45Thought I'd see more people though.
00:00:49Oh, Anna. You're as dumb as ever.
00:00:55Well, well, well. If it isn't the filthy Anna, welcome to Luminous.
00:01:03I see. You're still wearing sad colors. We could have done a better job in your first interview.
00:01:09What are you guys doing here? What's going on?
00:01:13Shut it. We're here to conduct your interview, genius. We obviously work here.
00:01:19Unfortunately, you're not doing great in the first interview.
00:01:24Also, we have a strict no trash policy.
00:01:29Why are you doing this?
00:01:33You're as mean as you were in high school.
00:01:36Let me go. I don't have time for this.
00:01:39But you need this job. So stay good like a little good girl.
00:01:49The CEO is back. He is in the building.
00:01:51Get off the bed of my CEO.
00:01:53Can someone explain to me why there's a woman on my shoes?
00:02:03Is this what happens in my company when I'm not around?
00:02:07Serious pleasure to have you here.
00:02:09She was just on her way out.
00:02:11She came for an interview, but it's fair to say she's in company material.
00:02:16You're being awfully quiet. Is it true you came in for an interview?
00:02:19Yes, sir.
00:02:21I'm the one who decides exactly if she's company material or not.
00:02:25Now, what's your name and why were you on my floor?
00:02:29She tripped on her way out.
00:02:30I wasn't talking to you, Jessica.
00:02:33The lady can answer for herself.
00:02:36You can talk to me.
00:02:40My name is Anna. I got an email saying I should come in for the interview.
00:02:44I was excited because I really need this job.
00:02:47Turns out it was just a stupid joke.
00:02:51A joke?
00:02:53What do you mean a joke?
00:02:55Let's just say your employees are the same mean kids they were years ago.
00:03:00I see.
00:03:04I 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.
00:03:20The most I can do is give you a job.
00:03:24What are you talking about?
00:03:27How would you like to work for me, Miss Anna?
00:03:30You can resume work tomorrow as assistant to the CEO.
00:03:33Doesn't that sound good?
00:03:34Yes, sir.
00:03:38What is he planning?
00:03:43You'll explain to me why you thought it appropriate to choose an applicant like you did today.
00:03:49Sir, we didn't mean-
00:03:51Didn't mean to what?
00:03:53To humiliate her?
00:03:55To mock her?
00:03:57To laugh at someone who came here for an opportunity?
00:04:01We were just having a little fun.
00:04:03It wasn't something that serious.
00:04:04And we know her from way back.
00:04:06Sir, it was just harmless fun.
00:04:08Fun?
00:04:09You thought that was fun?
00:04:11That was cruel.
00:04:13And in this working environment, there is no place for cruelty.
00:04:16With all due respect, sir, she isn't exactly our hire.
00:04:21She has no place here either.
00:04:23And that's not your decision to make.
00:04:25If I ever see you treat anyone like you did today,
00:04:29both of you are out.
00:04:31You will be so fast that you won't have time to go and pack away your desks.
00:04:35This is your last warning.
00:04:37Next time I catch you, you're done.
00:04:42What's his problem?
00:04:43I don't know.
00:04:47He is more than I expected, you know?
00:04:50He is a powerful man.
00:04:52And I can feel it.
00:04:54But there is something about him.
00:04:56Doesn't he feel familiar to you?
00:04:58Whatever, that's not important.
00:05:01What matters is that Anna is a problem.
00:05:05Let's make sure she regrets ever stepping foot in this building.
00:05:14Good morning, sir.
00:05:18Hey, good morning, Anna.
00:05:20I got you some coffee on my way to work.
00:05:22And here are some files you requested.
00:05:24You bought the coffee?
00:05:26You know we have a coffee machine in the break room, right?
00:05:31Crap.
00:05:32Careful.
00:05:33We wouldn't want a coffee stain disaster to start the day now, would we?
00:05:37I am so sorry, sir.
00:05:39Guess I'm still fine in my footing.
00:05:41I get it.
00:05:42First days are always messy.
00:05:45I will do my best, sir.
00:05:47I mean it.
00:05:48I won't let you regret giving me a chance.
00:05:51Please, call me Lucas.
00:05:53Sarah just makes me feel old.
00:05:56Tell me, Anna.
00:05:58Do you know me from before now?
00:06:01I don't think so, Lucas.
00:06:04I'm pretty sure I would remember someone like you.
00:06:06How does anyone get this thing to work?
00:06:22It's not a spaceship, you know.
00:06:24Damn it, you scared the shit out of me.
00:06:26Here, let me show you.
00:06:31I think I got it now.
00:06:33You're doing great, Anna.
00:06:35Better than most on the first date.
00:06:46Daphne.
00:06:48Lucas, darling.
00:06:49I hope you're ready.
00:06:51I'll be in the city for a few days.
00:06:53Lucky you.
00:06:55I'm gonna be stopping by just to see you.
00:06:58Great. Can't wait.
00:07:02Here is your coffee, sir.
00:07:14Um, Lucas.
00:07:17I can't see how well I look forward to my morning coffee, sir.
00:07:20It's my pleasure.
00:07:21I got you on the good stuff.
00:07:24Lucas?
00:07:25Surprise?
00:07:27It's not technically a surprise when you call ahead, Daphne.
00:07:30I didn't know you hired a new help.
00:07:36Daphne, this is Anna, my new assistant.
00:07:40She's been a great help.
00:07:43Assistant?
00:07:45Interesting.
00:07:47I thought you had higher standards for hiring personal help around here.
00:07:55I'll leave you two to talk.
00:07:57No, no, no, Anna. Stay.
00:07:59Daphne, why exactly are you here?
00:08:02It can't just be to see me.
00:08:04How's the old man?
00:08:06Ah, the old man is fine.
00:08:08I'm just checking in.
00:08:10I thought we can have a lunch together.
00:08:13It's been too long since we caught up.
00:08:15As you can see, I'm swamped here.
00:08:16So maybe another time that's more convenient.
00:08:20Of course.
00:08:22I'm busy as always.
00:08:24You know how it is.
00:08:26In fact, how about you contact Anna and she'll fix you in with a time that's more available to me.
00:08:32Well, Anna, enjoy your position here.
00:08:36It's not often Lucas lets just anyone into his circle.
00:08:43Um, thank you, ma'am.
00:08:47You know, Lucas, not everyone has your best interests.
00:08:51And there's so many gold diggers these days.
00:08:56Thanks. I'll keep that in mind, Daphne.
00:08:59We'll talk soon.
00:09:07Um, should I go?
00:09:10No, no. Stay, please. Let's continue with this work.
00:09:17Daphne, it's been a while.
00:09:19Jessica, you look... the same.
00:09:23What this about?
00:09:25You're not usually the let's have lunch type.
00:09:28In fact, I was sure you hated my guts.
00:09:32And I still do, so let's keep the small talk.
00:09:34We both want the same thing.
00:09:37To get Anna away from Lucas.
00:09:41Finally, someone else sees it.
00:09:44That little nobody just acting like she belongs there.
00:09:49She's running her way into Lucas' heart.
00:09:52She doesn't belong.
00:09:54But you're right, she's getting too close to Lucas.
00:09:57And that is a problem.
00:09:59Huh?
00:10:00Who's your target?
00:10:01Who's your target?
00:10:03Lucas is mine.
00:10:05And has always been.
00:10:07Lucas and I are a perfect match.
00:10:10So I won't let any nobody assistant ruin them.
00:10:15Well, she's annoyingly resilient.
00:10:19Believe me, I've tried.
00:10:21And Lucas seems to have a soft spot for her.
00:10:24Then try her.
00:10:26With my influence and your directness, we can make her quit.
00:10:31I'm listening.
00:10:34What's your plan?
00:10:36We'll hit her from both sides.
00:10:39At work, you gotta keep her busy.
00:10:42Undermine her confidence.
00:10:44Just make her feel out of place.
00:10:46That's easy.
00:10:48And outside of work, I'll handle Lucas.
00:10:52I'll play the doll about her confidence and just remind him that she's beneath him.
00:10:58Divide and concur.
00:11:01I like it.
00:11:03Good.
00:11:05Let's keep it between us.
00:11:07Lucas can't know we're working together.
00:11:09You don't have to tell me twice.
00:11:12I can lose my job.
00:11:14For what?
00:11:15We deserve.
00:11:16I don't toast with a cup of coffee.
00:11:23Thank you for bringing me along.
00:11:26I promise, I won't mess this up.
00:11:28You won't.
00:11:29Just be yourself.
00:11:31And you should give yourself more credit.
00:11:45You're a assistant this year, Mr Gonzalez.
00:11:47Yes, she is.
00:11:49We pride ourselves on having the best employees in this company.
00:11:51And Anna?
00:11:52She's a model example of that.
00:11:53Thank you very much for your time.
00:11:54Get home safe, okay?
00:11:55Bye-bye.
00:11:56Bye-bye.
00:11:57Bye-bye.
00:11:59Bye-bye.
00:12:00You didn't have to say that back there.
00:12:01I did.
00:12:02It's true.
00:12:03You know it.
00:12:04You know it.
00:12:05They know it.
00:12:06Thanks.
00:12:07I wish you could tell that to high school me.
00:12:08Why?
00:12:09What can I say?
00:12:10I was bullied a lot.
00:12:11Kids can be cruel, you know.
00:12:12Yeah, I know.
00:12:13It was terrible.
00:12:14I had no friends.
00:12:15I was bullied a lot.
00:12:16Kids can be cruel, you know.
00:12:17Yeah, I know.
00:12:18It was terrible.
00:12:19I had no friends.
00:12:20I didn't have to say all of them.
00:12:21But I was bullied a lot.
00:12:22You know it.
00:12:23I didn't have to say that.
00:12:24Bye-bye.
00:12:25Bye-bye.
00:12:27You didn't have to say that back there.
00:12:29I did.
00:12:30It's true.
00:12:31You know it.
00:12:32You know it.
00:12:33They know it.
00:12:34Thanks.
00:12:35I wish you could tell that to high school me.
00:12:36Why?
00:12:37What can I say?
00:12:38I was bullied a lot.
00:12:39Kids can be cruel, you know.
00:12:40Yeah, I know.
00:12:41I had no friends.
00:12:44There was this one kid though.
00:12:46He was shy and kind.
00:12:49And was bullied a lot because of that.
00:12:52I don't even know his name.
00:12:55I wonder what happened to him.
00:12:58Maybe he turned out okay.
00:13:00I really hope so. He deserved better.
00:13:03Thanks, Lucas.
00:13:10I can't remember the last time. I just relaxed.
00:13:14You know what? Me neither.
00:13:16You know, for a CEO, you are pretty down to earth.
00:13:20And you're pretty amazing for an assistant.
00:13:29Oh, where are you going?
00:13:30Excuse me? I need to get this to Lucas.
00:13:32Get out of my way.
00:13:34Oh, it's Lucas now. Look at you.
00:13:36Little miss assistant.
00:13:38Who knew crawling on the floor could get your promotion?
00:13:42The CEO might have bought you a sobbing story.
00:13:44But we know the truth.
00:13:46You don't belong here.
00:13:48I earned my spot here.
00:13:50Just like everyone else.
00:13:51Did you?
00:13:52Or did you just remind Lucas of some pathetic sob story from high school?
00:13:56Oh, poor bullet Anna.
00:13:59Boo hoo.
00:14:01You think your life was miserable back then?
00:14:04That was nothing.
00:14:05Oh, honey. We've got resources now.
00:14:07And you've got enemies in high places.
00:14:09Just imagine what we can do to your career.
00:14:13Why? Why are you doing this?
00:14:15You've got everything you wanted.
00:14:17Why am I still a threat to you?
00:14:19Because you don't deserve to be here.
00:14:23Simple.
00:14:24Quit, Anna.
00:14:25Or we'll make sure your life here is just as bad as it was in high school.
00:14:31Oh, no.
00:14:32You better pick that up, assistant.
00:14:37Anna.
00:14:38Everything okay?
00:14:39Yes, I'm still getting used to the office.
00:14:40It's just so big.
00:14:41Hmm.
00:14:42Hmm.
00:14:43If anyone ever gives you any problems here, you can come to me.
00:14:48Understand?
00:14:49Yes, sir.
00:14:50Hmm.
00:14:51Hmm.
00:14:52Hmm.
00:14:53Hmm.
00:14:54Hmm.
00:14:55Hmm.
00:14:56If anyone ever gives you any problems here, you can come to me.
00:14:59Understand?
00:15:00Yes, sir.
00:15:02Hey, Dad.
00:15:03I've been thinking about Lucas again.
00:15:04What about him?
00:15:05Oh, Molloy.
00:15:06Well, he's a man, primus or nothing.
00:15:07You're a man.
00:15:08I'm a man.
00:15:09If anyone else gives you any problems here, you can come to me, understand?
00:15:11Yeah, sir.
00:15:12Oh, my God.
00:15:13I'm a man.
00:15:14I am.
00:15:15I was a man.
00:15:16Probably not a man.
00:15:17You're a man.
00:15:18All right.
00:15:19You're a man.
00:15:20Now, this is the present.
00:15:21I'm a man.
00:15:22And it's all right.
00:15:23I'm a man.
00:15:24And it's all right.
00:15:25What's up?
00:15:26Oh, I can do my daddy.
00:15:27That's all right.
00:15:28And I'm a man.
00:15:29What about him?
00:15:31Well, remember you told me to settle down and start looking for a partner?
00:15:38I think Lucas might be the one.
00:15:41Think about it.
00:15:42He's intelligent, ambitious, and his company has been taken off.
00:15:48You told that to me.
00:15:50Well he has exceeded even my expectations.
00:15:53Exactly.
00:15:54He's the ideal partner for me.
00:15:56He's everything you raved about and you basically shaped him to be so.
00:16:01Well, you're not wrong.
00:16:03He has proven himself to be more than capable in every sense.
00:16:08However, does he share the same feelings?
00:16:11Does he see it that way?
00:16:14Well, not yet, but he will after you speak to him.
00:16:19He needs to see how well we complement each other and I will be his obvious choice.
00:16:25Well, the match does make sense.
00:16:28Lucas is a stubborn man.
00:16:30He might not see things your way immediately, might not be.
00:16:35Then we'll show him.
00:16:38Invite him for dinner, Daddy.
00:16:40Very well.
00:16:41I'll speak with him tomorrow.
00:16:43I 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 the convincing to me, Dad.
00:16:53Listen to me, Dad.
00:17:02Boop, boop.
00:17:04Boop.
00:17:09Mr. Anderson, sir.
00:17:10Good morning, Lucas, my boy.
00:17:12I hope I'm not interrupting.
00:17:14No, no, not at all, sir.
00:17:15You know it's always a pleasure when you call me.
00:17:17How can I help?
00:17:18I wanted to invite you for dinner tomorrow evening.
00:17:21Just you, Daphne and me.
00:17:22Nothing formal, son.
00:17:24Just a chance to talk and catch up.
00:17:26Well, dinner sounds like a lovely idea.
00:17:28I'd be honoured.
00:17:29Seven sharp.
00:17:30Daphne is looking forward to it.
00:17:32Sounds great.
00:17:33Looking forward to it.
00:17:34Good.
00:17:35See you tomorrow, Lucas.
00:17:37Goodbye, sir.
00:17:49Anna, could you come in a moment?
00:17:56You need me, sir?
00:17:57Mr. Lucas?
00:17:58I've been invited for dinner tomorrow night at the Anderson's,
00:18:01my mentor's house.
00:18:03And I was wondering if you might accompany me.
00:18:05I'm sure Daphne will enjoy the company.
00:18:08Um, I appreciate the offer, but...
00:18:12I don't think that's, um, appropriate.
00:18:16You see, it's a personal dinner and, uh,
00:18:19I would probably feel out of place.
00:18:22I see.
00:18:23Well, thank you for being honest.
00:18:25I'm sure it will go well, sir.
00:18:27You don't need me there.
00:18:30I'm sure it will.
00:18:31Well, thank you, Anna.
00:18:32That will be all.
00:18:40Lucas, it's always a pleasure having you around.
00:18:42But you've been so busy making great strides that you hardly stop by anymore.
00:18:47I am sorry, sir.
00:18:48It's just, I've been out of town for a few months.
00:18:51And ever since I've come back, I've been so busy organizing the operations at Luminous.
00:18:56But I really do owe you everything, sir.
00:19:00Oh, Lord, so stop it.
00:19:01I've always saved you one of my brightest mentees.
00:19:03And that's why you're here tonight, Lucas.
00:19:08Father and I want you to feel like family.
00:19:14Uh, thank you.
00:19:16I appreciate it a lot.
00:19:18And 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.
00:19:33Life is better with the right people.
00:19:37In that spirit, I think you and Daphne would make a wonderful team.
00:19:41Not just in business, but in life.
00:19:46Father, you're embarrassing him.
00:19:50I'm honored in your confidence in you, 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.
00:20:08I'm really flattered, but I just...
00:20:13Well, Lucas, think about it.
00:20:16And, um...
00:20:18Just think that you will be part of this family.
00:20:22And you'll be my son.
00:20:25Thank you, sir.
00:20:26Thank you. I definitely will think about you.
00:20:32I... I meant what I said.
00:20:34I think we'll be good together.
00:20:38No, no, no.
00:20:40We'll be perfect.
00:20:42I don't know what to say, Daphne.
00:20:44I just... I need to go.
00:20:45No, no.
00:20:46Anna, can you come in for a moment, please?
00:21:01You need me, sir?
00:21:03Yes, Anna. Please take a seat.
00:21:05I need to vent for a minute.
00:21:06Since when did you start venting?
00:21:11This sounds serious.
00:21:13Wait.
00:21:15Is it about yesterday's dinner?
00:21:17You have no idea.
00:21:19Hell, I had no idea.
00:21:21I just walked in there and...
00:21:23Well, what happened?
00:21:25It was so awkward.
00:21:27Your Mr. Anderson practice suggested that I should be together with Daphne.
00:21:31As a couple.
00:21:33Um...
00:21:35Well, 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.
00:21:47I just owe him so much.
00:21:49And I...
00:21:51Well, can you blame her?
00:21:54Look at you, Lucas.
00:21:56What woman wouldn't want you?
00:21:58You're...
00:22:00Smart.
00:22:01Successful.
00:22:03And well...
00:22:04You're you.
00:22:07Thanks for the confidence boost, but that's just not the problem.
00:22:10What is?
00:22:12The problem is...
00:22:16I'm thinking of someone else.
00:22:18You do?
00:22:20Yeah, but I don't know how to let Daphne down without disappointing Mr. Anderson.
00:22:24I 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.
00:22:33Hey, it's alright, Lucas.
00:22:36You will do the right thing.
00:22:39If we adjust the timeline here, we can meet the targets without pushing the team too hard.
00:22:45Good idea.
00:22:47You really have a good eye for detail.
00:22:49I hope I'm not interrupting Lucas.
00:22:51Daphne, this is unexpected. What brings you here on the monster?
00:23:00I trust you to skip the pleasantries. I assume you've given it some thought.
00:23:07To be honest, I've not had any time, Daphne.
00:23:14And is she what you've been so busy with?
00:23:16My name is Anna, Mr. Anderson. We've met before. I'm Mr. Lucas' assistant.
00:23:23I know exactly what you are. I can feel the stench from a mile away.
00:23:28That's enough!
00:23:30That is not enough.
00:23:32What's your plan? I can see the way she's looking at you.
00:23:36You think you can just worm your way into his office?
00:23:40Into his life, maybe?
00:23:43I didn't mean...
00:23:45Save it!
00:23:47Women like you know exactly what they're doing.
00:23:50I have to go!
00:23:54We'll cross the line, Daphne.
00:23:56I'm just protecting what's mine!
00:23:58I am not yours!
00:24:07Anna, stop! Wait!
00:24:08You can't let her get to you.
00:24:14Here, let me drive you home.
00:24:22I'm so sorry you had to see all of that.
00:24:24Daphne had no right to talk to you that way.
00:24:27I still can't believe you said that.
00:24:30It's fine. I should have expected it.
00:24:33I don't exactly fit up there.
00:24:36Don't say that.
00:24:37You fit in there more than any of them.
00:24:40More than you know.
00:24:42Why would you defend me like that?
00:24:44You're supposed to be on her side.
00:24:47She's your...
00:24:49That's not true.
00:24:51I know you.
00:24:53I've known you longer than you know.
00:24:55I know you to be kind and real.
00:24:58More real than any of them.
00:25:00How could you possibly know that?
00:25:02It's a long story and I promise I'll tell you soon.
00:25:05Just trust me for now.
00:25:08But right now we have to get you home.
00:25:10Thank you, Lucas.
00:25:13For everything.
00:25:15You didn't have to do any of this.
00:25:17Anytime.
00:25:19Good night, Lucas.
00:25:20Good night, Anne.
00:25:23You 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.
00:25:36Just not like that.
00:25:38I 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.
00:25:54He was complaining about the dinner and stumbling with your father's proposal.
00:26:00He 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?
00:26:29What 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 gonna have to wait.
00:26:36No, it 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.
00:26:55What's this about?
00:26:57Don'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.
00:27:05Do you think I haven't noticed?
00:27:07You're spending too much time together.
00:27:09This is embarrassing.
00:27:11Do you realize how crazy you so?
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.
00:27:25Let me remind you of something you might have forgotten.
00:27:29My father gave you everything.
00:27:32He 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 you're looking for.
00:27:47Everything 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.
00:27:57I 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.
00:28:28Good morning, Anna.
00:28:29Doing well?
00:28:30Good morning, sir.
00:28:31Ah, sorry.
00:28:32Lucas.
00:28:33I just want to thank you for driving me home yesterday.
00:28:35It was kind of you.
00:28:36You didn't have to.
00:28:37It was nothing.
00:28:38I'm just doing what Emma would.
00:28:39Still, it meant a lot to me.
00:28:41I don't know how I was planning to get home after running off.
00:28:48Anna, what's important is that you got home safe.
00:28:50But I would appreciate if my employees did not leave before working hours close.
00:28:51All right.
00:28:52I will leave you to your work then.
00:28:57Well, well, if it isn't the employee of the month.
00:28:58What do you want, Jessica?
00:28:59Nothing crazy.
00:29:00I just want to glut.
00:29:01What are you talking about?
00:29:02Daphne, she's got her clothes.
00:29:03What's important is that you got home safe.
00:29:04I would appreciate if my employees did not leave before working hours close.
00:29:08All right.
00:29:09I will leave you to your work then.
00:29:10Well, if it isn't the employee of the month.
00:29:23What do you want, Jessica?
00:29:24Nothing crazy.
00:29:25I just want to glut.
00:29:27What are you talking about?
00:29:28What are you talking about?
00:29:30Daphne, she's got her clothes in him.
00:29:33She doesn't like competition.
00:29:36I am not competing with anyone.
00:29:39Oh, sweetie, you don't have to be.
00:29:41Just existing near him is enough for her
00:29:43to consider your friend.
00:29:47From what I hear, she's got a little chat with Lucas
00:29:49last night and told him to keep his distance or else.
00:29:54Why are you telling me this?
00:29:57Because I think it will be hilarious
00:30:00to watch you crash and burn your way over your head.
00:30:15Lucas, you've come a long way.
00:30:18I'm proud of you.
00:30:21I've been hearing some troubling reports.
00:30:26Troubling, sir.
00:30:29I hear you become distracted,
00:30:32spending too much time with your assistant.
00:30:36Daphne's concerned, and frankly, I agree.
00:30:40Mr. Anderson, Anna is just my assistant.
00:30:43And you know I'm not the type of guy to go messing around,
00:30:46especially with work.
00:30:48That's what I've been telling Daphne.
00:30:51Be careful, Lucas.
00:30:53You owe this family, and you owe me.
00:31:09I believe this information is outdated.
00:31:12What kind of pressure you're running here?
00:31:16I don't.
00:31:20It must have been an oversight on Anna's part.
00:31:22She's new.
00:31:24I apologize for this mix-up, and we'll correct this immediately.
00:31:28And listen, I know you've flown here from very, very far away
00:31:31to be here with us today.
00:31:32But let me tell you, I have all the information in my head.
00:31:36So there's no need for us to delay this anymore.
00:31:40You called me, sir?
00:31:42I 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.
00:31:51But, sir-
00:31:51Don't do it again, Jessica.
00:31:53Or else.
00:31:55All of you, now get him.
00:32:06So, Lucas, um, can I talk to you?
00:32:34What's your mind?
00:32:36I'm sorry for appearing unprofessional in front of a client yesterday.
00:32:42But, I need to know.
00:32:45Why didn't you defend me?
00:32:46You saw what they did!
00:32:49It's...
00:32:51It's complicated.
00:32:53Complicated?
00:32:54So you're just gonna let them humiliate me?
00:32:57I thought I could count on you.
00:32:58Of course you can count on me, Anna.
00:33:00You know that.
00:33:02You're just like them.
00:33:04I thought you were different.
00:33:06I'm nothing like them.
00:33:07Nothing!
00:33:10I...
00:33:10I should have said something yesterday, Anna.
00:33:13I'm sorry.
00:33:15I could have done that.
00:33:24I could have done that.
00:33:25I could have done it.
00:33:27You could have done it easily.
00:33:29I've done it.
00:33:30I could have done it.
00:33:32maybe Nathan and Jessica are right maybe this isn't the place for me you're damn right I am
00:33:51right you're long enough to realize that what are you doing here this is an employee's lounge genius
00:33:57the better question is what are you still doing here I don't have to tell you anything
00:34:02you've done enough already oh baby the fun is just getting started
00:34:32someone is in the mood you're late I assume you had time to think about what we discussed
00:34:45I'm not here to play games Daphne tell me what this is about so let's get straight to you have
00:34:52you decided to do the right thing toss Anna out of the company and just stop this nonsense the right
00:35:01thing I mean bending to your every whim you can't afford to mock me let me remind you Lucas the clock
00:35:11is ticking and my father won't hesitate to pull his support if he fights what's daddy going to do
00:35:18Daphne how dare you no I've had enough of this your father may have helped me but I built my own success
00:35:27and I'm tired of letting you or anyone hold that over me you're making a mistake the only mistake I
00:35:36ever made was letting you think you could control me you're mine and I can't control you grow up Daphne

00:44:35lunch sounds great
00:44:39you need me sir?
00:44:42Anna
00:44:43come in and sit down
00:44:49Anna
00:44:50because you're new here you might not know this
00:44:52but I usually don't spend that amount of time in the headquarters
00:44:58the reason I'm here is because
00:45:00I've seen some inconsistencies
00:45:05what do you mean?
00:45:06there's been some inconsistencies
00:45:09some money trails that just lead to nowhere
00:45:13and I suspect someone's in the offices behind it
00:45:16do you mean fraud?
00:45:18or worse
00:45:20I couldn't quite pinpoint it from afar
00:45:21that'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
00:45:33this 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
00:45:44and if there is a problem we will fix it
00:45:47alright
00:45:49I'll show the inconsistencies that I've got so far
00:45:53and we'll follow it till the end
00:45:55they will paint a bigger picture
00:45:57exactly
00:45:58I'll give you full access to the files I've flagged
00:46:01and see if you can spot any inconsistencies
00:46:03or see if anything's off
00:46:05I'll start tonight
00:46:07Anna
00:46:09thank you
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?
00:46:24and not like this could disrupt operations
00:46:27a little bit of disruption is better than corruption
00:46:30don't you think?
00:46:32we're all on the same side Lucas
00:46:34you don't have to treat it like a witch hunt
00:46:36if there's nothing wrong
00:46:38and there's nothing to hide, is there?
00:46:41get out of my office
00:46:51he's getting too close
00:46:54what if he finds out?
00:46:56then we make sure he does it
00:46:58you mean clean up everything?
00:47:00exactly
00:47:02we erase all the trails
00:47:04adjust the numbers
00:47:06and tie up loose ends
00:47:08I don't know, maybe we should come clean
00:47:10I could talk to him
00:47:12and what? risk us all turning us in?
00:47:14huh?
00:47:16what do you think he's just gonna let it slide in?
00:47:17once he sees the whole picture?
00:47:20maybe
00:47:22no!
00:47:24we stick to the plan
00:47:25keep 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?
00:47:33okay
00:47:46I'll get to the bottom of this
00:47:53Lucas, I know you're angry
00:47:56but I think you need to think this through
00:47:59this company used to stand for something good
00:48:03but now I find my own people are stealing money?
00:48:08I know but
00:48:10we will fix this
00:48:12you have already found out who's behind it
00:48:14this is the first step
00:48:16fix this? how can we fix this?
00:48:18these are people I trusted
00:48:20by holding them accountable
00:48:23losing your head now
00:48:25will only make it harder
00:48:26for us to find out who's behind it
00:48:29you're right
00:48:31I need to keep my head
00:48:36but how do we catch them?
00:48:38we don't even know their identities
00:48:39they've not made a single mistake
00:48:41they might be smart
00:48:45but we will be smarter
00:48:47what do you suggest?
00:48:48we 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
00:49:04right?
00:49:06they may be
00:49:08smart enough to cover their tracks
00:49:11and they might hide it well
00:49:14but they are still after the money
00:49:17your money
00:49:19you know what? you're right
00:49:21I mean after all this they are just thieves
00:49:23just they want to follow the money
00:49:25yeah
00:49:27trust me they will fall for it
00:49:29and you will catch them red handed
00:49:32with their dirty paws
00:49:34in the cookie jar
00:49:35the cookie jar
00:49:59Lucas?
00:50:01Lucas!
00:50:02Lucas!
00:50:04Lucas! can you hear me?
00:50:10hello
00:50:12yes
00:50:13my boss just collapsed
00:50:15luminous
00:50:17are you his colleague?
00:50:19yeah we are his employees
00:50:21I found him in the office
00:50:23how is he?
00:50:25he is stable for now
00:50:26but we can't say for sure
00:50:28we found trace of poisonous substances in his liver
00:50:32are you saying Lucas was poisoned?
00:50:35how?
00:50:37we are running further tests to learn more about that
00:50:39but I suggest you to inform the authorities
00:50:42Lucas was poisoned
00:50:44you!
00:50:46what 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
00:50:55do you expect us to ignore that?
00:50:57are you serious?
00:50:59I found him!
00:51:01how convenient
00:51:03if you think I've hurt Lucas
00:51:06you know nothing about me
00:51:11what happened to my Lucas?
00:51:13I 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
00:51:21that's what I think too
00:51:23you don't have it in you
00:51:26you're far too weak for that
00:51:28so
00:51:30why are you here?
00:51:32why talking to me?
00:51:34I came to tell you
00:51:36that whoever did this
00:51:38won't get away with that
00:51:40Lucas is mine
00:51:42nobody touches him except me
00:51:45who would ever do this to you?
00:51:48I am so confused
00:51:50you really are naive
00:51:53so innocent
00:51:55I see why Lucas wants you around
00:51:57what are you talking about?
00:51:59you and Lucas were in the middle of a witch hunt
00:52:02Lucas wanted to find those who were allegedly stealing from him
00:52:07I think Lucas might have come too close
00:52:11they poisoned him?
00:52:13those thieves poisoned him?
00:52:16certainly seems so
00:52:20just know this
00:52:22if they can aim at Lucas
00:52:24what makes you think you aim next?
00:52:29think about it
00:52:30he's stable for now but he's not showing any signs of waking up
00:52:44Lucas is strong
00:52:46he'll pull through
00:52:54I will find out who did this to you
00:52:58I swear
00:53:00Anna
00:53:02how's Lucas?
00:53:04he is fighting
00:53:06yeah
00:53:08he does that
00:53:10if there's anything I can do to help
00:53:12just say a word
00:53:14I will let you know if anything comes up
00:53:17good
00:53:19keep me in the loop
00:53:21like it or not
00:53:22but Lucas is an investment
00:53:23to me and my father
00:53:25and we
00:53:26take care of our investment
00:53:28don't call him that
00:53:30hey
00:53:32I'm not the enemy here
00:53:34we both want the same thing
00:53:38please just go
00:53:40I just can't right now
00:53:41please just leave
00:53:53Nathan
00:53:55what are you hiding?
00:53:57all of these transactions
00:53:59to untraceable accounts
00:54:01Nathan
00:54:03you're not as clever as you think
00:54:05you definitely had some major help
00:54:07Anna?
00:54:08what are you still doing here?
00:54:09I'm going through company's records
00:54:10I'm going to finish what Lucas started
00:54:11it's probably just an era that happened when I'm putting
00:54:13mistakes happen sometimes
00:54:14happen sometimes
00:54:15this looks deliberate
00:54:16Jessica
00:54:18if you know something
00:54:19Jessica
00:54:20if you know something
00:54:21Jessica
00:54:22you know
00:54:23what are you still doing here?
00:54:24I'm going through company's records
00:54:25I'm going through company's records
00:54:27I'm going to finish what Lucas started
00:54:29it's probably just an era that happened when I'm putting
00:54:32mistakes happen sometimes
00:54:34this looks deliberate
00:54:36Jessica
00:54:38if you know something Jessica
00:54:39now is the time to speak up
00:54:42I don't know anything
00:54:44why do you even ask me that?
00:54:47I better let you work
00:54:49just take it easy
00:54:51you're scaring some of the folks
00:54:53those with something to hide
00:54:55better be afraid
00:54:56Nathan's name keeps popping up
00:55:12but who else isn't willing
00:55:21I figured you'd still be here
00:55:24and you leave
00:55:25Not yet. But I will find whoever did this.
00:55:30Yes, of course you will. Let me know if I can help.
00:55:43I'll find them, Lucas. I promise.
00:55:50Nathan's name keeps appearing.
00:55:53But it doesn't make any sense.
00:55:56He can't be doing this alone.
00:56:01Hey, Anna.
00:56:03How is this going?
00:56:07What do you want, Jessica? I don't have time for this.
00:56:12Don't push yourself so hard.
00:56:15Since when did you start caring?
00:56:19What do you know about these transactions?
00:56:21Nathan handles that department, you know. Maybe he can explain you better.
00:56:27You've been signing off some of these transactions, Jessica. What's going on?
00:56:33It's not a procedure. That don't tell me to sign off. And I do. Because I assume everything is in order.
00:56:42I assume everything is in order.
00:56:43Well, we'll move the rest of the money soon.
00:57:02Just stay quiet.
00:57:04Anna's already asking questions about you.
00:57:06She's not as clueless as you think.
00:57:21I will not have the rest of the money soon.
00:57:24Just stay quiet.
00:57:25Anna's already asking questions about you.
00:57:28She's not as clueless as you think.
00:57:30I'll protect you, Lucas.
00:57:33No matter what it takes.
00:57:40Mason signed off on those transfers.
00:57:43And he got Jessica to sign on it too.
00:57:46Where did the money go to?
00:57:49I can't find any record of that.
00:57:52How could he be doing this?
00:57:56And who is he sending all this cash to?
00:58:05Anna's poking around the financial again.
00:58:07What are we going to do?
00:58:09We're not going to do anything.
00:58:10She's not going to find anything.
00:58:12Because we've covered up our asses.
00:58:14But what if?
00:58:15If she gets too close, I'll handle her too.
00:58:18Okay?
00:58:19That, that mean...
00:58:21Did you pause on Lucas?
00:58:23Were you the one who did that?
00:58:26Stop asking me stupid questions.
00:58:29I said I will handle it.
00:58:30And I did.
00:58:31That's all you need to know.
00:58:33God.
00:58:34You hurt him.
00:58:37You hurt Lucas!
00:58:39You sound just like Anna right now.
00:58:43So naive.
00:58:44I did what I had to do.
00:58:46To cover our asses.
00:58:48Okay?
00:58:49Now stop whining.
00:58:50And get out of my office.
00:58:56It's taking so long.
00:58:57Anna is getting closer every day.
00:58:59And why are we meeting in this dark parking lot?
00:59:02We have to avoid ice.
00:59:04We're all under heat.
00:59:06As for Anna, we've got her under control.
00:59:09She's smart.
00:59:10But not smart enough to connect the dots.
00:59:12She's closer than you think.
00:59:15You keep underestimating her.
00:59:19And she can go in us to rest.
00:59:23I told you to handle it.
00:59:25If she figures out I'm involved...
00:59:27That is your problem.
00:59:29Remember?
00:59:30You wanted to end on this.
00:59:34You came to us.
00:59:36We shouldn't fighting ourselves.
00:59:38Our enemy is Anna.
00:59:41We are underestimating her.
00:59:44Well...
00:59:46She shouldn't have gotten that job.
00:59:48Damn that Lucas.
00:59:50What's done is done.
00:59:52How do we get rid of her?
00:59:55I told you to handle it.
00:59:57If she figures out I'm involved...
00:59:59That is your problem.
01:00:01Remember?
01:00:02Daphne?
01:00:03You wanted to.
01:00:04You too?
01:00:06How deep does this rabbit hole go?
01:00:09I am so close, Lucas.
01:00:20Just hold on.
01:00:22Lucas?
01:00:24Can you hear me?
01:00:27I'll end this.
01:00:36I promise.
01:00:37Anna.
01:00:38What brings you here?
01:00:40Nothing much.
01:00:41I just needed some help understanding these reports.
01:00:54This...
01:00:59This is nothing.
01:01:01It's just routine transactions.
01:01:04Routine.
01:01:05The amounts and frequency don't seem routine to me.
01:01:10You authorized them.
01:01:12Look, Anna.
01:01:14You wouldn't understand.
01:01:16See, Lucas trusted me to handle these complex things.
01:01:19This is why I get paid so much.
01:01:22So Lucas knew about all of this?
01:01:25Lucas knew about the offshore accounts?
01:01:28Let's just say when Lucas doesn't know no one hurt him or didn't in this case.
01:01:36It was you.
01:01:38You!
01:01:39Careful now.
01:01:40You don't want to go around pointing fingers when you are the prime suspect.
01:01:45I didn't poison Lucas and you know that.
01:01:49Of course not.
01:01:50But what matters is others don't.
01:01:53When they look at you, they see some opportunistic cold digger.
01:01:58They see someone who tried to kill her boss after warming herself.
