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
00:03:21is give you a job

00:03:32doesn't that sound good
00:03:34yes sir
00:03:37what is he planning?
00:03:42you'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?
00:03:52to humiliate her?
00:03:54to mock her?
00:03:56to laugh at someone who came here for an opportunity?
00:03:59we were just having a little fun
00:04:01it wasn't something that serious
00:04:02and we know her from way back
00:04:04sir it was just harmless fun
00:04:06fun?
00:04:07you thought that was fun?
00:04:09that was cruel
00:04:10and in this working environment there is no place for cruelty
00:04:15with all due respect sir
00:04:17she isn't exactly our hire
00:04:19she has no place here either

00:04:52but there is something about him
00:04:55doesn't he feel familiar to you?

00:09:41finally someone else sees it
00:09:43that little nobody
00:09:45just acting like she belongs there
00:09:47she's warming her way into Lucas' heart
00:09:51she doesn't belong
00:09:53but
00:09:54you're right
00:09:55she's getting too close to Lucas
00:09:56and that
00:09:57is a problem
00:09:59who is your target?
00:10:03Lucas is mine
00:10:05and has always been

00:10:24then try her
00:10:26with my influence and your
00:10:28directness
00:10:30we can make her quit

00:10:38at work

00:10:41undermine her confidence
00:10:42just make her feel out of place
00:10:45that's easy
00:10:47and outside of work
00:10:49I'll handle Lucas
00:10:51I'll plant a doubt about her competence
00:10:54and just reminding that she's beneath him
00:10:57divide and concur
00:11:00I like it

00:13:36little miss assistant
00:13:38who knew crawling on the floor
00:13:40could get you promotion
00:13:41the CEO might have bought you a sobbing story
00:13:44but we know the truth
00:13:46you don't belong here
00:13:47I earned my spot here
00:13:49just 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

00:13:59you think your life was miserable back then?
00:14:03that was nothing

00:14:07and you've got enemies in high places
00:14:09just imagine what we can do to your career
00:14:12why? why are you doing this?
00:14:15you've got everything you wanted
00:14:18why 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
00:14:27is just as bad
00:14:28as it was in high school
00:14:34oh no
00:14:36you better pick that up assistant
00:14:49Anna
00:15:00everything okay?
00:15:02yes, I'm still getting used to the office
00:15:05it's just so big
00:15:08if anyone ever gives you any problems here
00:15:10you can come to me
00:15:11understand?
00:15:13yes sir
00:15:19hey dad
00:15:25I've been thinking about Lucas again
00:15:28what about him?
00:15:30well
00:15:31remember you told me
00:15:33to settle down
00:15:35and start looking for a partner
00:15:37I think
00:15:39Lucas might be the one
00:15:41think about it
00:15:42he's intelligent
00:15:44ambitious
00:15:45and his company has been taken off
00:15:47you 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
00:15:57and you basically shaped him to be so
00:16:00well
00:16:02you're not wrong
00:16:03he has proven himself to be
00:16:05more than capable in every sense
00:16:07however does he
00:16:09share the same feelings?
00:16:11does he see it that way?
00:16:13well
00:16:14not yet
00:16:16but
00:16:17he will after you speak to him
00:16:18he needs to see how well we complement each other
00:16:22and
00:16:23I 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
00:16:34might not be
00:16:36then 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
00:16:45isn't easily convinced
00:16:47so
00:16:49if he does agree
00:16:50it's because you convinced him
00:16:51not because I said
00:16:52leave the convincing to me dad
00:16:53come to me dad
00:17:03boop boop
00:17:05boop boop
00:17:09Mr Anderson sir

00:20:25thank you sir
00:20:26thank you I definitely will think about it
00:20:29I
00:20:33I meant what I said
00:20:35I think
00:20:36we'll be good together
00:20:38no no no
00:20:39we'll be
00:20:40perfect
00:20:42I don't know what to say Daphne
00:20:43I just
00:20:44I need to go
00:20:45better
00:20:46no no no no
00:20:52Anna�no
00:20:56Anna can you come in for a moment please
00:21:00you need me sir?
00:21:03yes Anna please take a seat
00:21:05I need to vent for a minute
00:21:06a minute. Since when did you start venting? This sounds serious. Wait, is it about yesterday's
00:21:17dinner? You have no idea. Hell, I had no idea. I just walked in there and... Well, what
00:21:25happened? It was so awkward. Mr. Anderson practically suggested that I should be together
00:21:31with Daphne as a couple. Well, I could have told you that. She has been circling you
00:21:40like a hawk since the day I started here. Mr. Anderson thinks it's a great idea. He's
00:21:46my mentor. I just owe him so much. Well, can you blame her? Look at you, Lucas. What woman
00:21:57wouldn't want you. You're smart, successful, and well, you're you. Thanks for the confidence
00:22:08boost, but that's just not the problem. What is? The problem is... I'm thinking of someone
00:22:17else. You do? Yeah, but I don't know how to let Daphne down without disappointing Mr. Anderson.
00:22:23I see what you mean. That could be tricky. I just don't want to hurt anyone. Especially
00:22:30not her or him. Hey, it's the right, Lucas. You will do the right thing. If we adjust the
00:22:40timeline here, we can meet their targets without pushing the team too hard. Good idea. You really
00:22:48have a good eye for detail. I hope I'm not interrupting Lucas. Daphne, this is unexpected. What brings you
00:22:59here on the most? I trust you to skip the pleasantries. I assume you've given it some thought. To be
00:23:08honest, I've not had any time, Daphne. And is she what you've been so busy with? My name
00:23:18is Anna, Mr. Anderson. We've met before. I'm Mr. Lucas' assistant. I know exactly what you
00:23:25are. I can feel the stench from a mile away. That's enough! That is not enough. What's your
00:23:33plan? I can see the way she's looking at you. You think you can just worm your way
00:23:38into his office? Into his life, maybe? I didn't mean... Save it! The women like you know exactly
00:23:49what they're doing. I have to go! We'll cross the line, Daphne. I'm just protecting what's
00:23:57mine! I am not yours! Anna, stop! Wait! You can't let her get to you. Here, let me drive you home.
00:24:18I'm so sorry you had to see all of that. Daphne had no right to talk to you that way. I still
00:24:28can't believe you said that. It's fine. I should have expected it. I don't exactly fit in there.
00:24:35Don't say that. You fit in there more than any of them. More than you know. Why would you
00:24:41defend me like that? You're supposed to be on her side. She's your...
00:24:49That's not true. I know you. I've known you longer than you know. I know you to be kind
00:24:56and real. More real than any of them. How could you possibly know that?
00:25:01It's a long story and I promise I'll tell you soon. Just trust me for now. But right
00:25:08now, we have to get you home. Thank you, Lucas. For everything. You didn't have to do
00:25:15any of this. Anytime. Good night, Lucas. Good night, Anna.
00:25:22You should have seen her earlier. I've been turning up the heat. Making sure she knows
00:25:29she doesn't belong here. She's putting on the brave face. There's nothing new. Just
00:25:36not like that. I think she's winning him over. Lucas and Pamela, they're getting closer. What
00:25:46is that supposed to mean? Just another day, I overheard him talking to her. He was complaining
00:25:55about the dinner and something with your father's proposal. He said that? Word for word. And
00:26:04he didn't sound happy about it. This cunt doesn't know who she's messing with. She's interfering
00:26:13somewhere she shouldn't. So, what's the plan? I'll handle it.
00:26:27Daphne, haven't you done enough? What do you want now? I need to see you. Right now.
00:26:32It's late and frankly I'm not in the mood. This is going to have to wait. No, it won't.
00:26:37Meet me at my father's club. I'll be waiting.
00:26:42Daphne, I'm here. What's the origin? It took you long enough. I was on my way home. What's
00:26:56this about? Don't play dumb with me, Lucas. You know exactly what this is about. Listen,
00:27:03if this is about Anna, then... Of course it's about her. Do you think I haven't noticed? You're
00:27:08spending too much time together. This is embarrassing. Do you realize how crazy you
00:27:13so? Anna's just my assistant and that's all there is to it. Don't insult me, Lucas. At
00:27:20least have the decency to own up. I saw the way you looked at her tonight. Let me remind
00:27:27you of something you might have forgotten. My father gave you everything. He mentored you.
00:27:34He invested in you. Without him, you wouldn't even have your company. You owe him. You owe us.
00:27:44Daphne, you know I appreciate everything that your father has done for you. His generosity. But
00:27:50that doesn't mean that you... It means. Whatever I say, it means. I like you, Lucas. I'd hope you would come around. The truth is you have no choice. You're mine. And that's all that matters. Can you hear yourself think? I'm not some dog that I am. I am. I am. I am. I am. I am. I am. I am. I am. I am. I am. I am. I am. I am. I am. I am. I am. I am. I am. I am. I am. I am. I am. I am.
00:28:02The truth is you have no choice. You're mine. And that's all that matters. Can you hear yourself think? I am not some dog that you can just yell at to go running around all the time. Get yourself together, Lucas. If you don't, I will tell my father how ungrateful you are. Let's see how loyal he stays to someone who spits on his generosity.
00:28:32Good morning, Anna. Doing well? Good morning, sir. Ah, sorry. Lucas. I just wanted to thank you for driving me home yesterday. It was kind of you. You didn't have to. It's nothing. I'm just doing what Emma would. Still, it meant a lot to me. I 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. But I would appreciate if my employees did not leave before working hours closed.
00:29:08Alright. I will leave you to your work then.
00:29:18Well, well. If it isn't the employee of the month.
00:29:21What do you want, Jessica? Nothing crazy. I just want to glut.
00:29:26What are you talking about? Daphne. She's got her clothes in him. She doesn't like competition.
00:29:35I am not competing with anyone. Oh, sweetie. You don't have to be. Just existing near him is enough for her to consider your friend.
00:29:44From what I hear, she's got a little chat with Lucas last night and told him to keep his distance or else.
00:29:53Why are you telling me this?
00:29:55Because 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. I'm proud of you.
00:30:18I've been hearing some troubling reports.
00:30:25Troubling, sir?
00:30:27I hear you become distracted. Spending too much time with your assistant. Daphne's concerned. And frankly, I agree.
00:30:38Mr. Anderson, Anna is just my assistant. And you know I'm not the type of guy to go messing around, especially with work.
00:30:48That's what I've been telling Daphne. Be careful, Lucas. You owe this family and you owe me.
00:31:08I believe this information is outdated. What kind of pressure you're under here?
00:31:15I don't.
00:31:19It must be an oversight on Anna's part. She'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. So 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. The car was 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. Or else.
00:31:55All of you. Now get him.
00:32:02Let's go.
00:32:30Sir?
00:32:31Lucas, um... Can I talk to you?
00:32:34What's in your mind?
00:32:36I am sorry for appearing unprofessional in front of a client yesterday.
00:32:42But... I need to know. Why didn't you defend me? You saw what they did!
00:32:49It's... It's complicated.
00:32:52Complicated? So you're just gonna let them humiliate me? I thought I could count on you!
00:32:58Of course you can count on me, Anna. You know that!
00:33:02You're just like them.
00:33:04I thought you were different!
00:33:05I'm nothing like them! Nothing!
00:33:09I... I... should have said something yesterday, Anna.
00:33:13I'm sorry.
00:33:14I'm sorry. You're right!
00:33:15I'm not sure what happened.
00:33:17I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I can't get them out of my way.
00:33:19Anyone who understands me I am.
00:33:20I'm sorry. I have to go.
00:33:22So I'm sorry.
00:33:23I'm sorry.
00:33:24I am sorry.
00:33:26maybe Nathan and Jessica are right maybe this isn't the place for me you're damn right I am
00:33:50right you long enough to realize that what are you doing here this is an employee
00:33:56lounge genius the better question is what are you still doing here I don't have
00:34:01to tell you anything you've done enough already oh baby the fun is just getting started
00:34:26someone is in the mood you're late I assume you had time to think about what we discussed I'm not
00:34:46here to play games Daphne tell me what this is about so let's get straight to you have you decided to do
00:34:53the right thing toss Anna out of the company and just stop this nonsense the right thing I mean bending
00:35:02to your every whim you can't afford to mock me let me remind you Lucas the clock is ticking and my father
00:35:14won't hesitate to pull his support if he fights what's daddy going to do dad how dare you no I've
00:35:22had enough of this your father may have helped me but I built my own success and I'm tired of letting
00:35:29you or anyone hold that over me you're making a mistake the only mistake I ever made was letting
00:35:37you think you could control me you're mine and I can't control you grow up Daphne the world doesn't
00:35:44revolve around you wait you can't leave watch hello Lucas hey I hope it's not too late

00:36:20because of people like Daphne it's not your fault Lucas you didn't ask for any of it but I didn't
00:36:30stop it either I spent so long being afraid of going back to who I was to the person people look
00:36:36down on I can't imagine anyone looking down on you but then there's you reminded me that there's
00:36:44nothing wrong with who I was nothing wrong with standing up for myself or the people who matter

00:40:42how you've rejected her you embarrassed her
00:40:49you owe this you jeopardizing this family's partnership
00:40:55to be frank sir this was never about business
00:40:58Daphne and I
00:41:00were not a good match
00:41:03and trying to force something that just isn't there is just gonna end badly
00:41:07you don't get to dictate terms here
00:41:10Lucas I made you
00:41:12without my support you'd still be digging for scraps
00:41:15and I appreciate everything you've done for me sir but that doesn't mean I owe you my life
00:41:20you're throwing everything away
00:41:22for what for some assistant you think you can survive without my backing
00:41:26I'm willing to take that risk
00:41:28I'm not willing to sacrifice my integrity or let anyone dictate my choices
00:41:32no matter what the cost

00:41:53you're braver than I thought Anna
00:41:56following Lucas like a little shadow
00:41:59I am here because he asks me to come
00:42:06Lucas doesn't belong in your world
00:42:08and you certainly don't belong in his
00:42:12I am not trying to take him away from me Daphne
00:42:16take him away from me
00:42:19aren't you confident
00:42:21let me make something clear
00:42:23Lucas is mine
00:42:26all I'm saying is
00:42:29I am not a threat
00:42:31the only threat here is me
00:42:34don't mess with me
00:42:36or I'll wreck you and him
00:42:38you can say whatever you want about me Daphne
00:42:43but if you try to hurt Lucas
00:42:45I swear I'll make you regret it
00:42:48so Lucas is fighting you after all
00:42:53I thought all of this was
00:42:55bullied out from you in a high school
00:42:57you don't scare me Daphne
00:43:00I 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
00:43:10for the first time in your life
00:43:12you think you're clever
00:43:14huh don't you
00:43:16I think you underestimate me
00:43:20enjoy a little moment in the sun

00:43:35rough day huh
00:43:37you could say that
00:43:39I can't say I'm surprised
00:43:41so I take it Daphne phoned you when I was up speaking to her father
00:43:45she tried threatening me
00:43:48made me feel small
00:43:50like I don't belong in your world
00:43:52I'm so sorry
00:43:55you didn't deserve that
00:43:56it's okay
00:43:58I kind of stood up to her
00:44:00especially when she started threatening you
00:44:04you did?
00:44:06well I wasn't going to let her push me around
00:44:09especially when it involved you
00:44:12I mean
00:44:15I knew you were tough
00:44:16but to stand up to Daphne
00:44:18that's impressive
00:44:20thank you Anne
00:44:23it's nice to know that someone has my back
00:44:25you know what
00:44:27I 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

00:44:37you needed me sir?
00:44:43Anna
00:44:44come 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
00:45:12and I suspect someone's in the offices behind it
00:45:15so you mean fraud?
00:45:17or worse
00:45:19I couldn't quite pinpoint it from afar
00:45:21that's why I had to come here and see myself
00:45:23does anyone else know?
00:45:27no
00:45:28the fewer people that know the better
00:45:30then 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
00:45:43and 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
00:45:56exactly
00:45:58exactly
00:45:59I'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
00:46:08thank you
00:46:09from 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
00:46:26a little bit of disruption is better than corruption
00:46:29don't you think?
00:46:31we're all on the same side Lucas
00:46:33you don't have to treat it like a witch hunt
00:46:35if there's nothing wrong
00:46:37and there's nothing to hide is there
00:46:40get out of my office
00:46:56he's getting too close
00:46:57what if he finds out?
00:46:59then we make sure he doesn't
00:47:01you mean clean up everything?
00:47:03exactly
00:47:05we erase all the trails
00:47:07adjust the numbers
00:47:09and tie up loose hands
00:47:10I don't know
00:47:11maybe we should come clean
00:47:13I could talk to him
00:47:14then what?
00:47:15risk us all turning us in?
00:47:17huh?
00:47:18what do you think he's just gonna let it slide
00:47:19once he sees the whole picture?
00:47:21maybe
00:47:22no!
00:47:23we stick to the plan
00:47:24keep him distracted
00:47:25and I will handle the things
00:47:27what do you mean by handle?
00:47:30just let me
00:47:32leave it to me, okay?
00:47:46I'll get to the bottom of this
00:47:48okay
00:47:54Lucas, I know you're angry
00:47:55but
00:47:56I think
00:47:57you need to think this through
00:47:59this company used to stand for something good
00:48:02but now I find my own people are stealing money?
00:48:08I know, but
00:48:09we 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
00:48:24will only make it harder
00:48:26for us to find out who's behind it
00:48:28you're right
00:48:30I 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
00:48:41they might be smart
00:48:45but

00:49:06they may be
00:49:08smart enough
00:49:09to cover their tracks
00:49:12and they might hide it well
00:49:14but
00:49:15they are still
00:49:16after the money

00:50:05and pay them
00:50:06and pay them
00:50:07Hello. Yes, my boss just collapsed. Luminous.
00:50:15Are you his colleague?
00:50:18Yeah, we are his employees. I found him in the office. How is he?
00:50:24He is stable for now, but we can't say for sure. We found trace of poisonous substances in his liver.
00:50:31Are you saying Lucas was poisoned? How?
00:50:35We are running further tests to learn more about that, but I suggest you to inform the authorities.
00:50:42Lucas 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.
00:51:02And...
00:51:03If you think I've hurt Lucas, you 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.
00:51:20I didn't!
00:51:21That's what I think too. You don't have it in you. You're far too weak for that.
00:51:28So, why are you here? Why talking to me?
00:51:33I came to tell you that whoever did this won't get away with that.
00:51:39Lucas is mine. Nobody touches him except me.
00:51:44Who would ever do this to you? I am so confused.
00:51:51You really are naive. So innocent. I 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? Those thieves poisoned him?
00:52:16Certainly seems so.
00:52:19Just know this. If they can aim at Lucas, what makes you think you aim next?
00:52:28Think about it.
00:52:39He's stable for now, but he's not showing any signs of waking up.
00:52:44Lucas is strong. He'll pull through.
00:52:47I will find out who did this to you. I swear.
00:53:00Anna, how's Lucas?
00:53:04He is fighting.
00:53:07Yeah, 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.
00:53:19Like it or not, but Lucas is an investment to me and my father.
00:53:25And we take care of our investment.
00:53:29Don't call him that.
00:53:30Hey, I'm not the enemy here. We both want the same thing.
00:53:38Please, just go. I just can't right now. Please, just leave.
00:53:43Just go.
00:54:01Nathan, what are you hiding?
00:54:06All of these transactions to untraceable accounts.
00:54:11Nathan, you're not as clever as you think.
00:54:15You definitely had some major help.
00:54:20Anya?
00:54:24What are you still doing here?
00:54:26I'm going through company's records.
00:54:28I'm going to finish what Lucas started.
00:54:31It's probably just an era that happened when I'm putting.
00:54:35Mistakes happen sometimes.
00:54:37This looks deliberate, Jessica.
00:54:41If you know something, Jessica, now is the time to speak up.
00:54:47I don't know anything.
00:54:49Why do you even ask me that?
00:54:54I'd better let you work.
00:54:56Just take it easy.
00:54:58You're scaring some of the faults.
00:55:01Those with something to hide better be afraid.
00:55:07Nathan's name keeps popping up.
00:55:11But who else is involved?
00:55:16I figured you'd still be here.
00:55:19Any leads?
00:55:21Not yet.
00:55:23But I will find whoever did this.
00:55:25Yes, of course you will.
00:55:28Let me know if I can help.
00:55:30I'll find them, Lucas.
00:55:32I promise.
00:55:33Nathan's name keeps appearing.
00:55:34But it doesn't make any sense.
00:55:35He can't be doing this alone.
00:55:36Hey Anna.
00:55:37How is this going?
00:55:38How is this going?
00:55:40I'm going to find him.
00:55:42I'm going to find him.
00:55:44I'm going to find him, Lucas.
00:55:46I promise.
00:55:48Nathan's name keeps appearing.
00:55:52But it doesn't make any sense.
00:55:56He can't be doing this alone.
00:55:57Hey Anna.
00:55:59How is this going?
00:56:01What do you want, Jessica?
00:56:02I don't have time for this.
00:56:04Don't push yourself so hard.
00:56:06Since when did you start caring?
00:56:08What do you know about these transactions?
00:56:11Um, Nathan handles that department, you know.
00:56:13Maybe he can explain you better.
00:56:14You've been signing off some of these transactions, Jessica.
00:56:19What's going on?
00:56:21A standard procedure.
00:56:22Nathan tells me to sign off.
00:56:24And I do.
00:56:25Because I assume everything is enough.
00:56:27And I'm not sure.
00:56:29I'm not sure.
00:56:30I'm sure.
00:56:31You've been signing off some of these transactions, Jessica.
00:56:34What's going on?
00:56:36A standard procedure.
00:56:38Nathan tells me to sign off.
00:56:40And I do.
00:56:41Because I assume everything is in order.
00:57:00We'll move the rest of the money soon.
00:57:03Just stay quiet.
00:57:04Anna's already asking questions about you.
00:57:07She's not as clueless as you think.
00:57:11I'll protect you, Lucas.
00:57:12No matter what it takes.
00:57:13I'll protect you, Lucas.
00:57:14No matter what it takes.
00:57:15I'll protect you, Lucas.
00:57:16I'll protect you, Lucas.
00:57:17No matter what it takes.
00:57:18I will protect you, Lucas.
00:57:19And I'm sorry.
00:57:20I'm sorry.
00:57:21I'm sorry.
00:57:22I'm sorry.
00:57:23I'm sorry.
00:57:25I'm sorry.
00:57:26I'm sorry.
00:57:27I'm sorry.
00:57:28She's not as close as you think.
00:57:32I'll protect you, Lucas.
00:57:34No matter what it takes.
00:57:41Mason signed off on those transfers.
00:57:44And he got Jessica to sign on it too.
00:57:48Where did the money go to?
00:57:50I can't find any record of that.
00:57:55How could he be doing this?
00:57:58And who is he sending all this cash to?
00:58:06I've spoken around the financial again.
00:58:08What are we going to do?
00:58:10We're not going to do anything.
00:58:11She's not going to find anything.
00:58:12Because we've covered up our asses.
00:58:14But what if?
00:58:16If she gets too close, I'll hand her a tomb.
00:58:19Okay?
00:58:20That, that mean...
00:58:22Did you poison Lucas?
00:58:24Were you the one who did that?
00:58:27Stop asking me stupid questions.
00:58:29I said I'll handle it.
00:58:30And I did.
00:58:31That's all you need to know.
00:58:33You 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 and get out of my office.
00:58:52What's taking so long?
00:58:53Anna is getting closer every day.
00:58:54And why are we meeting in this dark parking lot?
00:58:55We have to avoid ice.
00:58:56We're all under heat.
00:58:57As for Anna, we've got her under control.
00:58:58She's smart.
00:58:59But not smart enough to connect the dots.
00:59:00She's closer than you think.
00:59:01You keep underestimating her.
00:59:02And she can go in as to rest.
00:59:03I told you to handle it.
00:59:04If she figures out I'm involved.
00:59:05That is your problem.
00:59:06Remember?
00:59:07Yes.
00:59:08I told you to handle it.
00:59:09If she figures out I'm involved.
00:59:10That is your problem.
00:59:11Remember?
00:59:12You wanted to end on this.
00:59:13You came to us.
00:59:14We shouldn't fight ourselves.
00:59:15Our enemy is absolutely smart.
00:59:16You are smart.
00:59:17But not smart enough to connect the dots.
00:59:18She's closer than you think.
00:59:19You keep underestimating her.
00:59:21And she can go in as 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.
00:59:35We shouldn't fight ourselves.
00:59:38Our enemy is Anna.
00:59:41We are underestimating her.
00:59:44Well.
00:59:45She 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?
00:59:54I 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?
01:00:05How deep does this rabbit hole go?
01:00:19I am so close, Lucas.
01:00:21Just hold on.
01:00:25Lucas?
01:00:26Can you hear me?
01:00:27I'll end this.
01:00:37I promise.
01:00:46Anna.
01:00:47What brings you here?
01:00:49Nothing much.
01:00:50I just needed some help understanding these reports.
01:00:54This?
01:00:59This?
01:01:00This is nothing.
01:01:02It's just routine transactions.
01:01:05Routine?
01:01:07The amounts and the frequency don't seem routine to me.
01:01:11You authorize them.
01:01:14Look, Anna.
01:01:15You wouldn't understand.
01:01:17See, Lucas trusted me to handle these complex things.
01:01:20This is why I get paid so much.
01:01:23So Lucas knew about all of this?
01:01:26Lucas knew about the offshore accounts?
01:01:29Let's just say when Lucas doesn't know one hurt him.
01:01:33Or 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.
01:01:44I didn't poison Lucas.
01:01:45And you know that.
01:01:46Of course not.
01:01:47But what matters is, others don't.
01:01:49When they look at you, they see some opportunistic gold digger.
01:01:53They see someone who tried to kill her boss after warming herself.
01:01:58They see someone who tried to kill her boss after warming herself.
01:02:03They see someone who tried to kill her boss after warming herself.
