00:00:00Take it easy. Mr. Harrington, you should slow down.
00:00:22I worked as his assistant for a year, all because I couldn't stop falling for him.
00:00:27And his heart still belonged to another woman, but...
00:00:30I kept hoping that maybe, some day, he'd finally turn around and see me.
00:00:36Mr. Harrington, I'll go draw you a bath.
00:00:47You...
00:00:48I'll take care of you.
00:00:56I thought my dream had finally come true, until my daughter was born.
00:01:12That's when I realized, no matter how hard you try, you can never thaw a heart made of ice.
00:01:22It's been seven years and I'm still haunted by that night.
00:01:28Every mistake I've made, it all started with that dream.
00:01:34Mommy, did you have a bad dream?
00:01:36No, no, sweetheart.
00:01:38I'm fine.
00:01:39Are we really moving out?
00:01:41But, daddy hugged me tonight.
00:01:44Does that mean he's starting to like me?
00:01:47Sweetheart, your daddy's true love is coming back.
00:01:51So we can't stay here anymore.
00:01:52But, he gave me the stuffed bunny tonight.
00:01:56If he didn't like me, why would he buy me a gift?
00:02:00Should I tell her Richard's only happy because his one true love is coming back from abroad?
00:02:05Or, her gift came from another woman's shadow.
00:02:13Daddy, you're home!
00:02:15Is she too dumb to understand my words or is it you?
00:02:18How many times must I say this?
00:02:20She is never to call me dad!
00:02:24Sorry, Uncle Richard.
00:02:31You don't have to like me, but Amy is your daughter.
00:02:34How could you hurt her like this?
00:02:36You're the one who climbed into my bed and used your pregnancy to trap me into a marriage.
00:02:43Is that your idea of not hurting your daughter?
00:02:47I've already explained it a thousand times.
00:02:50It only happened that night because you were-
00:02:52Enough!
00:02:53I don't want to hear it anymore!
00:02:55Tell my mom!
00:02:56Mommy!
00:02:57I'll go return!
00:02:58Please stop fighting!
00:03:04Who told you you could have this?
00:03:06Tell your daughter to keep her hands off of things that don't belong to her!
00:03:12So that's it.
00:03:13The gift was meant for his true love's daughter all along.
00:03:16Is Amy really that worthless in his eyes?
00:03:21Tell me, Amy.
00:03:24Amy.
00:03:25What if we leave Uncle Richard together?
00:03:28Will you come with Mommy?
00:03:30Can we stay?
00:03:31You can even let me call him Dad once!
00:03:35He doesn't want us here.
00:03:37Mommy can take you away.
00:03:39Can we give Uncle Richard three more chances?
00:03:43If he really doesn't like us, we'll leave him.
00:03:45We'll leave him.
00:03:46We're good.
00:03:51Okay.
00:03:56Richard Harrington, my daughter and I are giving you three more chances.
00:04:00After that, you'll have no place in our home.
00:04:03Ever.
00:04:09Zoe!
00:04:10Are you really quitting the job?
00:04:12Yeah.
00:04:14Um...
00:04:15Amy's father is abroad, so I'm taking her to go.
00:04:18Join him.
00:04:19I know it must have been tough raising Amy alone.
00:04:21No chance.
00:04:31Zoe!
00:04:32Did you see that?
00:04:33Mr. Harrington, our Iceberg CEO, is bringing someone with him for the first time ever.
00:04:38Evelyn York.
00:04:45She really is stunning.
00:04:48No wonder Richard's never gotten over her all these years.
00:04:51Even when he was drunk, he was still calling her name in my bed.
00:04:56Who's that girl?
00:04:58She looks really close to Mr. Harrington.
00:05:01Could she be the future Mrs. Harrington?
00:05:05Everyone, I'd like to make an announcement.
00:05:06Miss Evelyn York here will be joining us at the company
00:05:09and taking the position as my new personal assistant.
00:05:12Zoe, what are you going to do if she takes your place as his assistant?
00:05:16I'm leaving soon anyways.
00:05:18It's perfect timing for her to show up.
00:05:20I can't believe the Harrington Corp would just parachute someone in like that.
00:05:26Not just someone.
00:05:27She's that one.
00:05:30Wait, Mason?
00:05:31Zoe?
00:05:32Mr. Harrington's personal assistant?
00:05:34And now, Evelyn's here.
00:05:36So, what does that mean for Zoe?
00:05:37Will she lose her job?
00:05:39I've been here for years and this is the first time I've ever seen them drop someone in like this.
00:05:44Everyone else started from the bottom and worked their way up.
00:05:47Don't you guys think she looks kind of familiar?
00:05:50Haven't we seen her somewhere before?
00:05:52Wait, isn't she Mr. Harrington's first love?
00:05:55I heard they almost got married once but she suddenly vanished and Mr. Harrington's been drowning himself in booze over her ever since.
00:06:08Hi everyone. I'm so excited to be joining the company and becoming part of the Harrington family. I'd really appreciate your guidance as I get settled in.
00:06:21What? Zoe worked herself to the bone bringing in all those big clients to become the CEO's personal assistant.
00:06:29Exactly. Everyone can see how skilled Zoe is. And yet, suddenly someone comes along and steals her position. It's so unfair.
00:06:37I feel so bad for Zoe.
00:06:39Come on. You're new here. Let me show you around.
00:06:41Richard, you've got so much work to do. I don't want to be a burden.
00:06:47Maybe... Zoe could show me around?
00:06:56Actually, I've got a lot on my plate right now.
00:07:00Then, forget it. Never mind.
00:07:04No, no. Show her around.
00:07:07It won't take too much of your time.
00:07:08Hi.
00:07:18This is the conference room. I've shown you everything you need to see.
00:07:23You get it now. Don't you, Zoe?
00:07:27No matter how hard you work, in Richard's heart, I'm the one that matters the most.
00:07:33What? Can't handle the truth?
00:07:38Well, he's just using you for pleasure.
00:07:45One call for me, and he flies overseas just to see me.
00:07:49Then I wish you too a lifetime of happiness. For as long as you both shall live.
00:07:53You're saying one thing and doing another. You think I don't see right through you, you two-faced slut.
00:08:06How else do you think you got pregnant?
00:08:10I almost feel sorry for your daughter.
00:08:13She's Richard's blood, and yet he treats my daughter like she's his own.
00:08:20Do you know why that is?
00:08:22Well, if you're so confident, then why don't you convince Richard to make you his wife?
00:08:27Unless, of course, you're hiding something.
00:08:31What are you so afraid of?
00:08:32What am I afraid of?
00:08:35The one who should be afraid is you.
00:08:46Zoe!
00:08:47Are you okay?
00:09:02I'm fine, Richard.
00:09:09Apologize.
00:09:10I can't believe it took me this long to see how blind you really are.
00:09:17Richard, don't be angry. She didn't mean it. Please, for my sake.
00:09:23The surveillance cameras are on. Why don't you check them before accusing me?
00:09:31Two chances left.
00:09:35Richard, I'm okay.
00:09:37I'm okay.
00:09:39Zoe's probably upset because I took her spot.
00:09:43It was just a slap.
00:09:45Don't start any drama over me.
00:09:48I can't just let this slide.
00:09:50She's already hit you once. Who knows what she'll do next time.
00:09:54I need to teach you a lesson.
00:09:57I'm tired of these little charades.
00:09:59I'm leaving.
00:10:01Excuse me.
00:10:03Zoe!
00:10:04If you walk out those doors, you'll be demoted to a junior assistant.
00:10:10Do whatever you want.
00:10:17Zoe's acting so differently. What's going on with her?
00:10:20What?
00:10:34Is Zoe quitting?
00:10:35Maya, why didn't you tell me Zoe was resigning?
00:10:40Zoe told me not to let Mr. Harrington find out. How did he know?
00:10:49Mr. Harrington, there must be some mistake. Zoe, resign. That's impossible.
00:10:56That's right. She'd never leave me. She loves me too much.
00:11:02Richard, please, don't be so hard on Zoe.
00:11:10Will you come to my place tonight? I want to be with you.
00:11:15Whatever you want.
00:11:16You're so good to me.
00:11:18Spending the night at another woman's place while we're still married? Fine.
00:11:22Soon you'll be free to spend every night with her.
00:11:25Fine. Soon you'll be free to spend every night with her.
00:11:38Mom!
00:11:39Amy!
00:11:41Mom, tomorrow is our open house. Can daddy come?
00:11:46Seven years of marriage and not once has he come to Amy's school.
00:11:50Why would tomorrow be any different?
00:11:51Amy, I- I-
00:11:56Mom, all my classmates say I don't even have a dad.
00:12:01Let daddy come just once. Please?
00:12:05Okay. I'll text him.
00:12:10Amy's school has open house tomorrow. Any chance you could come?
00:12:18Mom, is daddy too busy to come?
00:12:21I don't know, babe. I'm sorry.
00:12:23I get it. It's okay. Daddy's busy. I understand.
00:12:29Amy.
00:12:32Okay. I'll come.
00:12:34Amy, look. Daddy says I'll come.
00:12:36Yay! Daddy's finally coming to my school for me.
00:12:39Mommy, my teacher said I did really well at school this year,
00:12:42and I get to be class president this semester.
00:12:44If daddy knew, maybe he'd start liking me, right?
00:12:47Mommy.
00:12:49Please, just don't break Amy's heart this time.
00:12:58Mom, daddy's really here.
00:13:03He really came.
00:13:05Let's go over to daddy.
00:13:09Daddy!
00:13:10What did you just call me?
00:13:12What did you just call me?
00:13:16What did you just call me?
00:13:19Uncle Richard, you're sitting at the wrong desk.
00:13:22Mine's up front.
00:13:23It's the first time dad actually kept his promise.
00:13:26I feel so happy.
00:13:28This is my seat.
00:13:33Out of the way!
00:13:34This is my dad.
00:13:36So that's it.
00:13:38He came, but not for Amy.
00:13:40He came for Evelyn's daughter.
00:13:42Oh, Lily didn't mean it.
00:13:45I'm sorry.
00:13:47Zoe, you're going to the open house too, right?
00:13:51So, where's her dad?
00:13:53My dad's overseas.
00:13:57It's busy.
00:13:58I didn't want to bother him.
00:14:01Uncle Richard, Mom and I are leaving now.
00:14:04Excuse us.
00:14:06Usually, Amy clings to me no matter what.
00:14:09But today she's pulling away on her own.
00:14:12What's gotten into her?
00:14:13Mom, first he brought that woman to the company and took her spot.
00:14:23And now, he shows up at school for some other kid.
00:14:27Dad only has one more chance left.
00:14:29What did I do to deserve this?
00:14:32Why does my daughter have to suffer?
00:14:35And there's nothing I can do to stop it.
00:14:37Welcome, parents.
00:14:39And thank you all for being here today.
00:14:41I'm sure you want to know how your kids are doing, so let's dive right in.
00:14:48Amy, I heard you're doing really well in school, right?
00:14:52Quiet, please.
00:14:54I am thrilled to say that all of our pupils have been studying super hard this semester.
00:15:00However, there is one student who has gone above and beyond.
00:15:05And that is Amy Harrington.
00:15:08Congratulations, Amy.
00:15:09You have been elected as class president.
00:15:11Why did she get to be class president?
00:15:13Amy, would you like to come up here and say something to everyone?
00:15:29I'm sorry, ma'am. I don't really know what to say.
00:15:37Oh, Amy, you just need a little more confidence, but no worries. Let's carry on.
00:15:43Amy, but don't worry. Mommy will always be with you. Don't be sad.
00:15:52Hey, what took you so long to get out today?
00:15:57You want to go home together today?
00:16:03By the way, Evelyn's daughter, Lily, she's a transfer student, right?
00:16:12So she never got the chance to run for class president.
00:16:17Amy, do you think maybe you could ask the teacher if she could have the title instead?
00:16:22Of course. Every gift comes with a price. Even this lollipop doesn't come for free.
00:16:31Okay, Uncle Richard.
00:16:35Richard, help! Lily is sick. Can you come pick us up?
00:16:51Dad!
00:16:52Stay safe.
00:17:05This time, he didn't tell our daughter to call him uncle.
00:17:09But this would be the last time she'd ever call him dad.
00:17:22Richard, I'm done staying up all night waiting for you.
00:17:33Next time you come home, the night lamp won't be on for you.
00:17:39Mom, let's get ready to board the plane.
00:17:42Okay, let's go.
00:17:46I wish you happiness.
00:17:47Again, if you are going to Chicago Midway, you will stop for flight 8-8-2 for delaying departure at 7-25.
00:17:54That flight will be departing out of gate number 15.
00:17:57Gate number 15.
00:18:07Maya?
00:18:09Zoe, please, you've got to help me.
00:18:11What? What's going on?
00:18:12You remember the project with Mr. Lawrence?
00:18:15We're in the final stages, but now he's heard you're leaving and refuses to sign.
00:18:20If Mr. Harrington finds out about this, I'm finished. Fired.
00:18:24Please, I'm begging you.
00:18:27It's not fair to let someone else take the fall for the mess I left behind.
00:18:32Okay, I'll be back right away.
00:18:35Thank you, Zoe. Thank you so much.
00:18:36Thank you so much.
00:18:42Amy, Mommy just has one last thing she has to take care of, okay?
00:18:47We'll leave by tomorrow, I promise.
00:18:51Okay.
00:18:56Once I wrap things up with Mr. Lawrence and seal the deal, I can finally leave for good.
00:19:07Evelyn?
00:19:09This is my seat.
00:19:11Please move.
00:19:21This desk is closest to Richard.
00:19:24I'm his personal assistant now, so naturally, it belongs to me.
00:19:28Sorry.
00:19:29If you want this seat so badly, you can ask Richard for it.
00:19:33But for now, it's mine.
00:19:37Hate to break it to you, Zoe, but Richard already gave me this spot.
00:19:41He said a junior assistant like you doesn't deserve to sit here.
00:19:47See?
00:19:49Your things are moved over there.
00:19:51You must be boiling with jealousy, aren't you?
00:20:02Look at you.
00:20:04Pathetic.
00:20:05Clinging to your ego, pretending you don't care.
00:20:08Tell me, how did it feel when Richard took my daughter to the open house?
00:20:14That must have broken your heart, didn't it?
00:20:16Drop the at.
00:20:22One tear for me, and Richard gives me whatever I want.
00:20:26Even your daughter's little president title.
00:20:29He handed that over to my Lily without a second thought.
00:20:33So, how did it feel that Richard made your daughter hand over her title to mine?
00:20:44Do you think Richard will still fawn over you once he sees your true colors?
00:20:48Or do you think he'll be disgusted?
00:20:50Like, like you swallowed a fly?
00:20:53You bitch.
00:20:55I'm just saying this to put you in your place.
00:20:58Get the hell out of here with your little brat, and never show your face to Richard again.
00:21:04Or I'll make you wish you were never even born.
00:21:06Got it?
00:21:10Yeah.
00:21:11Yeah, I get it.
00:21:12And since you're so fond of leftovers, you can have mine.
00:21:16Keep him.
00:21:17You.
00:21:19Don't think I don't see right through you.
00:21:23You're still hoping Richard cares.
00:21:25Dream on.
00:21:26What do you have that compares to me?
00:21:28I don't give a damn.
00:21:29But here's a warning.
00:21:31What goes around comes around, and one day you might get thrown out like trash.
00:21:45What's going on here?
00:21:47Evelyn!
00:21:51Richard, what are you doing here?
00:21:53When are you gonna stop picking on Evelyn?
00:22:01Richard, you're mistaken about Zoe.
00:22:03We were just playing a little game.
00:22:06I just saw what happened.
00:22:09You're far too kind.
00:22:11Always making excuses back.
00:22:13I don't want you two fighting over me.
00:22:15It's all my fault.
00:22:16Maybe I should've just never started working here in the first place.
00:22:21Stop blaming yourself for other people's mistakes.
00:22:25Zoe, do you have something to say?
00:22:28Nothing.
00:22:29Just that you're blind.
00:22:33How dare you talk to me like that?
00:22:35Have I been too kind that you've forgotten your place?
00:22:36Not to mention the audacity of you to hang up on me this morning.
00:22:40Is that how a personal assistant does her job?
00:22:42If it weren't for Evelyn, I would've, cleaning up your mess, I would've lost billions.
00:22:46From now on you're demoted.
00:22:48Back to being an entry level employee.
00:22:50So, he probably didn't see my message.
00:22:57He must've been busy at work this morning.
00:22:59Richard, Zoe's really good at her job.
00:23:03How can you demote her over something so trivial?
00:23:06Show her mercy and let her stay?
00:23:09No matter how good she is at her job, it won't make up for her vile character.
00:23:14But, still.
00:23:16If Zoe gets demoted, I can't help but feel guilty.
00:23:21Don't.
00:23:22If it weren't for you, I would've never seen how truly evil she is.
00:23:27But, still.
00:23:28Evelyn, you're always putting everybody else first.
00:23:31Try thinking of yourself at once.
00:23:37What are you waiting for? Apologize to her. Now!
00:23:43Don't you ever get tired of this little act?
00:23:48I know I'm sick of it.
00:23:50Zoe, I know you're angry.
00:23:53Go ahead, take it out on me.
00:23:55I won't blame you.
00:23:57As long as I'm here, you don't have to bow to anyone.
00:24:01But, she's Zoe, your assistant.
00:24:05Even if she hits me or curses at me, I won't say a word.
00:24:10Richard, let's pretend this never happened.
00:24:14Show her mercy and let her stay.
00:24:20I already showed her mercy when I allowed her to keep her job.
00:24:25Spare me. I quit.
00:24:28She can take my place.
00:24:29Zoe, you've been here so long. How can you just up and leave like that?
00:24:37If you're really mad at me, go ahead and hit me.
00:24:41She wouldn't dare.
00:24:48She actually hit me?
00:24:50Zoe, are you crazy? How dare you hit her in front of me?
00:24:53Those two slaps were for my daughter.
00:24:59You crushed her pride at the open house.
00:25:02Even forcing her to give up her class president title to your daughter.
00:25:06You brought this on yourself.
00:25:08Zoe!
00:25:10Zoe!
00:25:11Zoe!
00:25:12And that slap? That was for myself.
00:25:14You knew he was a married man and you still went after him.
00:25:16Nothing disgusts me more than a homewrecker.
00:25:18Like you.
00:25:20How can you say that about me?
00:25:23No, because it's true.
00:25:25You know better than anyone that he was married.
00:25:27And you still invite me to help me.
00:25:28And you let him sneak into your bed at night.
00:25:29Evelyn, do you not know what shame is?
00:25:31It's not true.
00:25:32Richard and I, there's nothing between us.
00:25:34Zoe, I know you hate me.
00:25:36Fine, I'll leave.
00:25:37From now on.
00:25:38I've got to stop the shame.
00:25:39You're not even after him.
00:25:40Nothing disgusts me more than a homewrecker.
00:25:41Like you.
00:25:43How can you say that about me?
00:25:45No, because it's true.
00:25:46You know better than anyone that he was married.
00:25:47And you still invited him over to your place.
00:25:49And you let him sneak into your bed at night.
00:25:51Evelyn, do you not know what shame is?
00:25:52It's not true.
00:25:53Richard and I, there's nothing between us.
00:25:54Zoe, I know you hate me.
00:25:55Fine, I'll leave.
00:25:56From now on, I've got to stop the act.
00:26:00Okay?
00:26:02If you want my leftover so badly, take him.
00:26:06Be my guest.
00:26:08Just take the trash and keep it.
00:26:11Trash?
00:26:13What trash?
00:26:15Richard, I think there's a misunderstanding between me and Zoe.
00:26:19She barged in out of nowhere, called me a homewrecker, and then...
00:26:24Believe it or not, she said I could keep the trash.
00:26:30And by that she meant...
00:26:32She meant you.
00:26:34Zoe, have I been far too easy on you?
00:26:37Yeah.
00:26:39That's exactly what I thought.
00:26:40That I've been way too easy on you these last seven years.
00:26:43Seven years.
00:26:52Seven years.
00:26:54Seven wasted years!
00:26:56Richard, running deals, breaking my back for your company, and for what?
00:27:00Zoe, hit me if you want, but please don't hurt Richard.
00:27:06What, do you think landing a few big deals makes you untouchable?
00:27:09That it gives you the right to act this cocky and be that disrespectful?
00:27:13Richard, please.
00:27:15It's my fault she ended up this way.
00:27:17Don't be angry with her.
00:27:18People like her only learn their lessons when you put them in that place.
00:27:25You two make me sick.
00:27:30Those two slaps were totally worth it.
00:27:33Finally, I've pushed you out.
00:27:36Zoe, always so high and mighty.
00:27:39Turns out, you ran straight into a brick wall.
00:27:43Serves you right.
00:27:44Call the project team.
00:27:52Zoe has to go over every point of data by herself.
00:27:56And if she doesn't finish by tonight, then she's out of the company.
00:28:00Mr. Harrington, this project's way too complex and the database is massive.
00:28:06There's no way Zoe can finish it all tonight.
00:28:09Then make her work through the entire night.
00:28:11She's been slacking off and off as it is already.
00:28:14It's getting late.
00:28:24Zoe's probably still buried in work.
00:28:28Learning her lesson.
00:28:32Mr. Harrington?
00:28:35Your coffee, sir?
00:28:37Is Zoe still working?
00:28:39She learned her lesson.
00:28:40Well, actually, she didn't come back here after this afternoon.
00:28:45What did you just say?
00:28:47She didn't return.
00:28:49Do you want me to go look for her?
00:28:50Don't bother.
00:28:52Zoe, playing games with me, huh?
00:28:54Fine.
00:28:55Let's see how long you can keep up the act.
00:28:56Ready, Amy?
00:28:57Let's go.
00:28:58I'm ready, Mom.
00:28:59From now on, things are gonna get better for us.
00:29:00Right?
00:29:01I promise..
00:29:02Let's go.
00:29:03Let's go.
00:29:04Go.
00:29:05Just be your son.
00:29:26Call Zoe.
00:29:48Tell her to bring me in a cup of coffee.
00:29:53But Zoe hasn't shown up for work today either.
00:29:56Zoe's getting bolder every day.
00:30:02I have to show her who's the boss.
00:30:04Richard?
00:30:06Come in.
00:30:09Your coffee, exactly the way you like it.
00:30:13Why are you the one bringing me in?
00:30:19Why are you the one bringing it to me?
00:30:23Richard, what's wrong?
00:30:25I'm your personal assistant now.
00:30:27Of course, I'm the one bringing you coffee.
00:30:29Just put it down and leave.
00:30:36Richard?
00:30:37I found this amazing new restaurant.
00:30:40Tonight we should take Lily and check it out together.
00:30:43I'm busy.
00:30:44But Lily's really excited to get dinner with us.
00:30:50Richard.
00:30:52Richard, are you feeling well?
00:30:54Should we go to the hospital?
00:31:00Richard, I'm done staying up all night waiting for you.
00:31:04Next time you come home, the night lamp won't be on for you.
00:31:07I wish you happiness.
00:31:18Richard, what's the matter?
00:31:20Trouble at work?
00:31:23Zoe!
00:31:25What's this supposed to mean?
00:31:26Are you out of your mind?
00:31:28Who do you think you are saying something like that?
00:31:30Your call is being transferred.
00:31:42Please leave your message after the tone.
00:31:44But now, Zoe's been gone for just one day and he's already losing it.
00:31:54Your call is being transferred.
00:31:56Richard, don't do that.
00:31:58I'm scared.
00:31:59Mind your own business.
00:32:01I'm leaving.
00:32:04Zoe, I can't have a single moment of peace while you're still alive.
00:32:15Damn it!
00:32:21I know that you're just jealous, Zoe.
00:32:24But throwing a temper tantrum?
00:32:28Fine.
00:32:32Fine.
00:32:35I'll make it up to you.
00:32:42I need you to pick up a cake and flowers for me now.
00:32:56Zoe!
00:32:56Zoe!
00:32:58I'm home!
00:33:01Are you happy now?
00:33:09Enough playing games, Zoe.
00:33:11Come down here now, or I'm done playing nice.
00:33:14Zoe!
00:33:15Zoe!
00:33:23Zoe!
00:33:23Zoe!
00:33:26Zoe!
00:33:27My patience is wearing thin!
00:33:28Jerry and Leah's are coming back.
00:33:58I've hardly ever been there for Amy, let alone playing with her.
00:34:28I've hardly ever been there for a while, but I've hardly ever been there for a while, but I've hardly ever been there for a while.
00:34:58I've hardly ever been there for a while.
00:35:10Zoe, I'll give you ten minutes. Call me back, or we're getting a divorce.
00:35:18So, he still hasn't realized Amy and I have already left the country.
00:35:32Well, well, well.
00:35:38Zoe, I thought you had some backbone.
00:35:42But here you are, crawling back to me already.
00:35:46Zoe, if you can't even keep up the act, stop pretending.
00:35:54First you ran off with Amy, now you're calling me back. Pathetic.
00:35:58Richard, it's me.
00:36:06Why are you calling so late?
00:36:08What's wrong?
00:36:09I had a nightmare. I'm scared. Could you come keep me company?
00:36:14If you're scared, go find your daughter. Let Evelyn keep you company.
00:36:19But, Lily's too young. I just, I want you here. Please?
00:36:25I'm busy. Find somebody else.
00:36:27You're the only one I know.
00:36:29Fine. Zoe, you're the one who's pushing me away. You brought this on yourself.
00:36:34Alright. I'm coming. I'll be waiting.
00:36:49Zoe, let's see how you compete with me.
00:37:04Hey, kiddo. You tired? You want to take a nap?
00:37:09No, not yet.
00:37:11Yeah, me neither.
00:37:13How about we get a little sweet treat before dinner?
00:37:17Great.
00:37:18Okay.
00:37:23Zoe, what's that supposed to mean?
00:37:26Are you out of your mind? Who do you think you are saying something like that?
00:37:30Zoe, I'll give you ten minutes. Call me back or we're getting a divorce.
00:37:35Ignoring my texts won't do you any good.
00:37:39Richard's coming over to see me now. Jealous much?
00:37:47If I were you, I'd disappear for good instead of playing hard to get just to make him chase you.
00:37:53I'm his first and only love. As long as I'm here, you don't stand a chance.
00:37:58So just give it up.
00:38:09Okay, so what are we ordering?
00:38:11Can we get brownies?
00:38:12Yes, of course we can get brownies.
00:38:14Okay, which one do you want?
00:38:28I have to keep making a fuss over the silly open house stuff.
00:38:34I am so off of this.
00:38:38Dad!
00:38:43Stay safe.
00:38:44So, Zoe's upset just because I left her and Amy behind that day for Evelyn's daughter?
00:38:56Evelyn told me Lily was sick.
00:38:58So I rushed over to check.
00:39:00Turns out she was just hungry and whining for fried chicken.
00:39:02Easy! Lily, take it slow.
00:39:05Richard, I'm sorry. You were meant to go home with Zoe and Amy and here you are with me and Lily.
00:39:16Don't worry. I'll apologize to her tomorrow.
00:39:19No need. I'm happy to help.
00:39:22Richard, you're my lifesaver.
00:39:24If I took Amy out for fried chicken even just once, she'd be over the moon.
00:39:36Richard?
00:39:40Come in.
00:39:41Zoe's got a way better figure than her.
00:39:50And yet she'd never wear something so revealing.
00:39:56The clients are all here. Shareholders too.
00:39:59Let's go to the meeting.
00:40:01Okay.
00:40:03Let's go.
00:40:04Oh no. The client files. My daughter took them yesterday. She did scribble all over them, did she?
00:40:15No, it's fine. I'm pretty sure I put those files away. Hopefully before she got her hands on them.
00:40:22What's wrong?
00:40:25Uh, nothing. I just didn't get any sleep last night.
00:40:30Well, make sure you try to get to bed early tonight though.
00:40:32I will.
00:40:38Richard! Long time no see.
00:40:41Mr. Anderson. Pleasure's always. Please.
00:40:47I'm really looking forward to our collaboration.
00:40:51The whole industry is singing the phrases of the formidable Richard Harrington.
00:40:55Young, accomplished, and razor sharp.
00:40:59Who's this? Isn't Zoe supposed to be here?
00:41:02Don't tell me you found someone even better than her.
00:41:06She's on, um, other tasks at the moment.
00:41:09I see.
00:41:11Over the years, Zoe's always been top notch.
00:41:14If she weren't your assistant, I'd have snatched her up myself.
00:41:17Mr. Anderson, if you don't mind, let's cut to the chase down.
00:41:20Let's sign the contract.
00:41:21Of course.
00:41:22Richard, what the hell is this?
00:41:30What the hell is this?
00:41:38Lily actually scribbled all over the contract?
00:41:42I'm so dead. I should have checked before handing it to Richard.
00:41:45Who drew this up?
00:41:47Do you have any idea what you've just done?
00:41:49Get me Zoe now.
00:41:50Zoe, she...
00:41:52Mr. Harrington, if this is how your company does business, then I don't see any reason to continue with this deal.
00:41:59I trusted Hamilton so much. And this is how she repays me?
00:42:05I'm sorry, Richard. I...
00:42:07Who are you to barge in here like this? I'm speaking to Mr. Harrington right now.
00:42:13Mr. Anderson, this is entirely my fault. I'll have a revised contract drawn up for you right away.
00:42:16And to show how sorry we are, I'd like to offer you an additional 3% discount.
00:42:23Looks are just a bonus in an assistant. What counts is competence.
00:42:30I see you've really outdone yourself with this extraordinary assistant, Mr. Harrington.
00:42:37I don't get it. What was Mr. Harrington thinking? Letting go of Assistant Zoe just to keep the useless eye candy around?
00:42:56It's absurd. Everyone knows Zoe was the one that kept this place running.
00:43:01Mr. Harrington, I never expected you to humiliate me like this.
00:43:05There's no reason for us to continue this partnership.
00:43:10Mr. Anderson, this is all just one big...
00:43:13Misunderstanding.
00:43:15Misunderstanding? Come on.
00:43:17This just shows you were never serious about working with me.
00:43:20You didn't have to tarnish my name just to reject a deal.
00:43:24Drawing a picture over my name of a pig just to insult me?
00:43:29Is this how you treat your partners? We will never work together again.
00:43:32What are we gonna do now?
00:43:36Mr. Anderson is our biggest client. If we lose this partnership, we will lose billions.
00:43:41Richard, I'm sorry. I had no idea something like this could happen. What do I do?
00:43:46Mr. Zoe would never look at me like that. She's proud, relentless, always pushing for perfection. No matter how tough the job, she's never faltered.
00:44:03I'm like Eleanor. All tears and no backbone, waiting for me to clean up her mess.
00:44:10If Zoe were here today, none of this would have happened. She's sharp, capable, and Amy, she's a good kid. She'd never mess up my documents.
00:44:20Bring me Zoe. Where the hell is Zoe?
00:44:23Richard, please.
00:44:25Just leave. And from now on, stay out of company business.
00:44:32Would you help me?
00:44:33Get out!
00:44:34Get ready for dinner tonight, you and me. And make sure to bring it in.
00:44:52I'm like going off to our show.
00:44:54Zoe, let's take Amy out for fried chicken tonight. Just the three of us.
00:45:24Richard. Richard, you need to sign these.
00:45:29Just put them down and leave.
00:45:34Please, don't be upset. What happened today is entirely my fault. I'll make sure Lily behaves next time. I promise. No more trouble.
00:45:44Call me Mr. Harrington during work hours. I know I put you in as my personal assistant, but there still needs to be boundaries.
00:45:50Boundaries?
00:45:52Everyone knows I was his first and only true love. He completely doted on me. Even after he married Zoe, it was never out in the open. And now, he's talking about boundaries?
00:46:08Richard, don't you like me anymore? Why are you acting like this now?
00:46:16Evelyn's still in me. She's not ready to be my personal assistant.
00:46:19Have her transferred to another department. Once she finally passes probation, bring her back.
00:46:31Richard. I know I messed up. I swear I won't let it happen again. Please. Don't do this to me.
00:46:40This is a business. Not a playground. If you can't handle the job, you'll be demoted. Zoe never once failed me. She definitely didn't cry in front of me either.
00:46:51Fine. I understand.
00:46:52Zoe, why do you have to make my life a living hell even when you're gone? Looks like I have to take you out no matter what.
00:47:09No matter what.
00:47:10No matter what.
00:47:11Number 59.
00:47:32I didn't even know what Amy liked, so I just grabbed a little bit of everything.
00:47:42Figured this way I can see which one she prefers.
00:47:55Amy!
00:47:56I brought you some fried chicken, honey.
00:47:58Come down and try it.
00:48:02These are Amy's drawings of her and Zoe.
00:48:18There isn't a single one of me in it.
00:48:32Uncle Richard, will you be my model?
00:48:36I don't have time for this.
00:48:55Zoe, where did you take Amy?
00:48:58I thought leaving Richard would break me, but I'd be drowning in heartbreak.
00:49:08But the truth is, the moment I finally walked away, not wasting my life waiting for someone
00:49:14who never loved me to come home, I felt lighter than ever, like I could finally breathe.
00:49:20No more dragging myself out of bed in the early morning to make him breakfast.
00:49:32No more choking down his cold, cutting words.
00:49:36Turns out, life without Richard feels pretty damn good.
00:49:41Good as that!
00:49:42Good as that!
00:49:58High five!
00:49:59Woo!
00:49:59Come here!
00:50:01Mom, we should have left Uncle Richard sooner.
00:50:15Richard never let Amy go to places like this.
00:50:18Said amusement parks were a waste of time.
00:50:21But now, I just want her to have fun.
00:50:24I'm going to give her back every bit of happiness he took away.
00:50:28Is it good?
00:50:29Yeah, really good.
00:50:31Cheers.
00:50:32Woo!
00:51:01Mr. Hattie!
00:51:17Bad news.
00:51:20What is it?
00:51:21Spit it out.
00:51:22The project Zoe's been handling?
00:51:24The client pulled out.
00:51:25They're canceling the deal.
00:51:27The whole thing's stuck.
00:51:28Then go find Zoe and have her handle it.
00:51:31Don't bother me with this.
00:51:33But Mr. Harrington, call Zoe and bring her in and have her fix it.
00:51:39Let's see what excuse you'll find if you don't.
00:51:43Forget it.
00:51:44Call Zoe and have her come directly to my office.
00:51:48I want her to handle this personally.
00:51:50But Mr. Harrington, Zoe's already resigned.
00:51:55We haven't been able to reach her since.
00:52:01Resigned?
00:52:03Who approved this?
00:52:04And why wasn't I informed?
00:52:06She...
00:52:07She said her husband works abroad.
00:52:10She's taken her daughter Amy to go join him.
00:52:13She put in her resignation.
00:52:14Why was I kept in the dark about something this important?
00:52:18Because you already demoted her to an entry-level position.
00:52:22By company policy, entry-level employees don't need your approval to resign.
00:52:26That's why no one informs you.
00:52:28Mr. Harrington, wait!
00:52:29What should we do now?
00:52:35Excuse me, sir.
00:52:37School's out.
00:52:38The kids have left already.
00:52:40Um, may I ask who you are?
00:52:42I'm here for Amy.
00:52:44I should be coming to classes recently.
00:52:46Oh!
00:52:47Now I remember.
00:52:48You're Amy's dad.
00:52:50The one who walked right past his own wife and child and then went on to pretend he was
00:52:54someone else's father at Open House.
00:52:58Look, Amy, she's...
00:52:59Amy is one of the kindest and brightest kids I have ever taught.
00:53:04Everyone adores her.
00:53:06But, um, since Open House, rumors have been spreading like wildfire.
00:53:11And Amy's been suffering a lot.
00:53:14What rumors?
00:53:16Look, that's all nonsense.
00:53:18I have nothing to do with Lily's mother.
00:53:20Lily is not my daughter.
00:53:23Why are you telling me this now?
00:53:25Amy's already withdrawn from school.
00:53:27And left with her mother.
00:53:29When?
00:53:29The day after Open House.
00:53:32Maybe I've been too harsh on them.
00:53:35Daddy, you're home!
00:53:37Is she too dumb to understand my words or is it you?
00:53:40How many times must I say this?
00:53:42She is never to call me dad!
00:53:46I'm sorry, Uncle Richard.
00:53:49You don't have to like me.
00:53:51But Amy is your daughter.
00:53:52How could you hurt her like this?
00:53:53Look, if you really want to help your wife and kid, go find them.
00:54:01Here's their new address.
00:54:02So, what do you want Mommy to make you for dinner tonight?
00:54:17Pasta.
00:54:18Ooh, good idea.
00:54:19I love pasta.
00:54:21Finally, I found you.
00:54:23Zoe, we need to talk.
00:54:26Uncle Richard.
00:54:27He came after me?
00:54:30This is crazy.
00:54:32Come inside.
00:54:33I don't want to make a scene out here.
00:54:41So, you ran off with Amy and skipped the country just to get my attention.
00:54:47Now you have it.
00:54:48You happy?
00:54:50Can we go home now?
00:54:52Home?
00:54:53This is my home.
00:54:56Now please leave.
00:54:57Richard.
00:54:59Richard, stop it.
00:55:01Don't you get it?
00:55:02Amy and I are done with you.
00:55:04And we never want to see you again.
00:55:06Quit the act.
00:55:07All right?
00:55:07We've been together for seven years.
00:55:10So, I'll cut you some slack.
00:55:12Come home now.
00:55:13And I'll pretend none of this ever happened.
00:55:18Zoe!
00:55:19Are you out of your mind?
00:55:21My mind's never been clear.
00:55:23I am done wasting my life on a cocky jerk like you.
00:55:28Let's get a divorce.
00:55:30Divorce?
00:55:33We're never getting a divorce.
00:55:35Not now.
00:55:36Not ever.
00:55:37Why not?
00:55:38Isn't Evelyn the one that you've always loved?
00:55:41Divorce me.
00:55:42And you can finally meet with her and live out the fantasy you've been chasing.
00:55:46All right, enough.
00:55:46All right, I get that you're jealous.
00:55:50Come home with me.
00:55:51And I promise I'll never see her again.
00:56:00Here.
00:56:02Divorce papers.
00:56:03Already signed.
00:56:04What the hell are you doing?
00:56:24I don't care what you signed.
00:56:26We're not getting a divorce, Zoe.
00:56:28And you're never going to leave me.
00:56:31Maybe not now.
00:56:33Not ever.
00:56:34Zoe.
00:56:36Zoe.
00:56:37So now you can't let me go?
00:56:39What?
00:56:40Are you in love with me?
00:56:42Shut up.
00:56:43Oh.
00:56:45God.
00:56:46Roger.
00:56:47You really are in love with me.
00:56:52So it's true then.
00:56:55You do have feelings for me.
00:57:01Don't touch me.
00:57:04You make me sick.
00:57:05Are you crazy?
00:57:07I thought you were...
00:57:08That I was madly in love with you.
00:57:13Damn right I was.
00:57:14I gave you everything.
00:57:18But I'm not your pet.
00:57:20Richard.
00:57:21You took my love and you trampled all over it.
00:57:25And what?
00:57:26You think after everything that you've done.
00:57:29That just saying I love you would ever pull me back.
00:57:34And what makes you think that after everything you've done.
00:57:39I'm done with you.
00:57:41And I'm never going back.
00:57:48Damn.
00:57:48If you won't come back for me.
00:57:53Then what about for our daughter?
00:57:57You really think that she's going to want to call you father after all of this?
00:58:02No it doesn't matter.
00:58:03You're never going to have custody of her.
00:58:07If you leave now.
00:58:11You'll never see her again.
00:58:13Didn't really think that through now did you?
00:58:18Well you disgust me.
00:58:21You don't even care about her.
00:58:24And now you want to think about taking her away from me?
00:58:29Of course I care.
00:58:30She's my daughter too.
00:58:32And I will get the best lawyer in the entire world.
00:58:38To make sure that you can never run off with her again.
00:58:42You bastard.
00:58:43You bastard.
00:58:48Come on with me Zoe.
00:58:51I'll treat you right.
00:58:53We can be a family again.
00:58:54I promise I'll treat you right.
00:58:56Come on now Zoe.
00:58:59You don't want your daughter to grow up without a mother in her do you?
00:59:02Do you?
00:59:05Please don't touch my mom Uncle Richard.
00:59:10What if you just call me Amy?
00:59:13Amy I'm your dad.
00:59:16Mom don't worry about me.
00:59:18Don't come back with Uncle Richard.
00:59:21I can take care of myself.
00:59:37Fine.
00:59:39I'll come back with you.
00:59:41That's about it.
00:59:42This time.
00:59:43I'll make it right.
00:59:44I'll make it right.
00:59:44And I promise.
00:59:53Amy.
00:59:55No matter what happens.
00:59:57I'll always be here for you.
00:59:58It's been two weeks since I came back.
01:00:18He hasn't called Evelyn once.
01:00:20And he even fired her.
01:00:26Honey.
01:00:26I'm home.
01:00:31I'll use it for you.
01:00:33It's too late Richard.
01:00:36Stop wasting your time.
01:00:42Don't like these?
01:00:46Fine.
01:00:47What about these?
01:00:48Not to your taste either.
01:00:53Well, just tell me what you like.
01:00:56And I'll have my assistant go and pick them up.
01:00:58What I want is to stay as far away from you as possible.
01:01:02Didn't I tell you to stop calling me?
01:01:20Richard.
01:01:20Didn't I tell you to stop calling me?
01:01:22Richard.
01:01:23Evelyn tried to commit suicide.
01:01:25She cut her wrist because you won't come to see her.
01:01:28Come over to the hospital.
01:01:29Please.
01:01:31All right.
01:01:33I'm coming.
01:01:33Zoe, you bitch.
01:01:40I should have finished you off when I had the chance.
01:01:46But it doesn't matter now.
01:01:48Richard's coming.
01:01:51At the end of the day, it's me he loves the most.
01:01:57Richard.
01:01:59You're here.
01:02:00I'm sorry.
01:02:05I didn't mean to take my own life.
01:02:07I just...
01:02:08I missed you so much.
01:02:13Thank God you came.
01:02:15I knew.
01:02:16I knew you still cared.
01:02:18Look, I'm here to give you one final warning.
01:02:21Either you stop pestering me, or I'll have you sent over sex.
01:02:25Richard!
01:02:26You used to love me so much, remember?
01:02:29Didn't you even risk your own life to save me once?
01:02:32Love you.
01:02:34The woman I loved was kind.
01:02:37Not a venomous snake.
01:02:39Like you are now.
01:02:41What are you trying to say?
01:02:48Pathetic tricks.
01:02:50Time and time again.
01:02:53First you framed Zoe, now you're faking a suicide just to get my attention?
01:02:57What do you really think I wouldn't see right through you?
01:03:01Let me get this straight.
01:03:03The only woman I love is Zoe.
01:03:06You're making me sick.
01:03:12Zoe, you bitch!
01:03:31I'll make you pay.
01:03:35Go to hell.
01:03:37If I can't have Richard, no one can.
01:03:39So, Amy, how was your day at school?
01:03:42Watch out!
01:03:58Go!
01:03:58Richard, stay with me!
01:04:02Oh my God, somebody help!
01:04:04Zoe, you still have feelings for me.
01:04:06Dad, please, don't go to sleep.
01:04:09Don't go to sleep, please.
01:04:13Tell me.
01:04:15You call me dad again.
01:04:20If only I could turn back to mom.
01:04:24We could be a family again.
01:04:26Richard, we've come to see you again.
01:04:40Evelyn has been sentenced.
01:04:42She'll spend the rest of her life in jail, just as husband's here.
01:04:48And we're doing just the right.
01:04:50Daddy, I got elected class president again.
01:04:53Are you proud of me?
01:04:56Daddy, it's okay.
01:04:59I forgive you.
01:05:00And just so you know, my new dad takes really good care of me and mommy.
01:05:10We'll come see her again soon.
01:05:15Daddy!
01:05:15Daddy!
01:05:19Okay.
01:05:21Okay, let's go home.
01:05:22Uh-huh.
01:05:23Good.
01:05:34Good.
01:05:34Good.
01:05:36Good.
01:05:45Good.
01:05:46Good.
01:05:50Good.
