00:00:01Do you take this woman to be your wife?
00:00:08Wayne
00:00:11I do
00:00:15What the hell?!
00:00:18Wayne, what do you think you're-
00:00:25Dad?
00:00:26Wayne's back
00:00:28Leave us, Mara
00:00:30Dad
00:00:41John
00:00:43Leave us
00:00:44I need to have a word with Wayne
00:00:46Yes, sir
00:00:58John
00:01:03You're closest to your father's condition
00:01:07How long does he have?
00:01:10I don't know
00:01:11Sorry
00:01:13Well, it looks like we'll have a new heir soon
00:01:17I, um, I trust you'll make the right choice when it comes to who should control the Carrington fortune
00:01:23Understood
00:01:33Wayne
00:01:35I know you harbour a deep hatred for me
00:01:38Been nusting that resentment, haven't you?
00:01:40I lived overseas with mum until I was twelve
00:01:44We barely know each other
00:01:47Who hates a stranger?
00:01:50Cut the act
00:01:52You hate me more than anyone
00:01:54And you want the count and fortune more than anyone too
00:01:58Then you don't know me at all
00:02:09Your Carrington heir bullshit
00:02:12It means nothing to me
00:02:15Son
00:02:17Take a father's advice
00:02:19Don't let a woman mess with your head
00:02:22Is that why you abandoned mum?
00:02:25Her?
00:02:29And me
00:02:33Just kept you unofficial
00:02:35Haven't I been good to you?
00:02:37Good?
00:02:39Where were you
00:02:41When mum got sick?
00:02:43But where were you
00:02:45All those years
00:02:46When I was being called a bastard
00:02:49My whole life
00:02:51I've been your biggest mistake
00:02:52And there has been
00:02:54Nothing
00:02:55Good
00:02:56About it
00:03:10Everything I own
00:03:14It's all yours now
00:03:15Consider it making amends
00:03:20Lance is gone
00:03:23My time is short
00:03:25You're all I have left
00:03:27In the Carrington legacy
00:03:29There's one lifeline
00:03:31A marriage to the quince
00:03:33The quince
00:03:48Thank you, dad
00:03:49Away
00:03:50I'll call you dad
00:03:51And I knew him
00:04:01When
00:04:02Our name is survival
00:04:04Rest with you
00:04:10What do you find, Amara?
00:04:12We got the proof
00:04:13That Amara went through the quince
00:04:14To transfer assets offshore
00:04:15You've done good work. Thank you, John. I'll take it from there.
00:04:28We got him.
00:04:30Well, congratulations, Wayne. I can't wait for your fairytale wedding to Stacy.
00:04:42You know, you really torched things with Stacy at the engagement party. Do you think she'll even still have you?
00:04:48Oh, well, you'll fix that for me.
00:04:51Oh, sure. On one condition. Dump the irritating lawyer. Cut her off completely.
00:05:01You know what I'm capable of, Wayne? If you don't end things now, this could get so much worse for you.
00:05:12As you wish.
00:05:15Good boy. You know, we could do great things together.
00:05:29Hmm.
00:05:43Leaving the firm? Wow, that takes guts, Olivia.
00:05:47Keep your boys down. Andrew will make you pay for that.
00:05:50I'll quit, too. I don't care.
00:05:53Lucy.
00:05:56You want to leave with her? Great. You're fired.
00:05:59I'm not afraid of you. There are law firms like yours all over this town.
00:06:02Oh, yeah? Well, the name Andrew Parker actually means something in this business. One call and you're blacklisted forever.
00:06:08You.
00:06:09You.
00:06:10No? Well, nobody messes with me and stays. Nobody. And that includes you, Olivia.
00:06:16Andrew, this is our problem. Let's just leave her out of it.
00:06:19Patience.
00:06:22Remember this from the good old days. Take a look at the top clause in the contract. You leave, you get nothing.
00:06:31Did you think about that before you started your little old rebellion?
00:06:34Andrew, you little snake. You've been fighting against her this whole time while she poured her heart into this firm.
00:06:42Oh, well, that's unnecessary. Did you think I was going to let my golden goose just walk away?
00:06:49No, she's going to be making me money forever.
00:06:52You're the worst kind of scumbag.
00:06:55I dare you to say that again.
00:06:57Lucy, you don't have to do this for me, really.
00:07:02No way. I'm sick of this cheapskate villain.
00:07:06You're shameless, pathetic, a little fucking liar. And you're just the actual fucking worst.
00:07:13You bitch.
00:07:16No one speaks to me like that. Remember your place.
00:07:21Are you alright, Lucy?
00:07:23Maybe we can't just let this go.
00:07:27You know what, you're right. I was going to bail, but these just got personal. It's payback time for both of us.
00:07:38Andrew, I've got a little paperwork for you.
00:07:42Let's call it severance package.
00:07:49Oh, great. Let me see what this is then.
00:07:55Where did you get this from?
00:07:57Every dollar you've smuggled out of the firm since we opened.
00:08:02Document it right here.
00:08:03Care to explain where the company funds went?
00:08:08Elevie, you've been spying on me.
00:08:10Rich. Coming from your contractual threats.
00:08:15Everything I've done, everything, was out of necessity. Your necessity.
00:08:21You think that you've got me with this, don't you?
00:08:32Remember, poor old Jenny and her medical condition.
00:08:37My medication keeps her alive. One phone call and she'll wish she weren't.
00:08:43So, that's your grand finale, Andrew?
00:08:47You bet. And it's enough to keep you under my thumb. Permanently.
00:08:53Wow.
00:08:55Olivia. Forever my puppet and forever my personal ATM.
00:09:03Seven years. And you think I've never prepared for that?
00:09:08What the hell are you talking about?
00:09:11Jenny's operation? Fully funded. And almost done.
00:09:17She's actually about to be discharged as we speak.
00:09:21You were planning this all along.
00:09:23You bet.
00:09:25You will never escape from me.
00:09:27I made you. And I can break you just as fast. Uncalling your blacklist from the entire city.
00:09:47Is that so? Well, I'll be waiting for that. But in the meantime, have a look at this.
00:09:57Documented evidence of your bribes, your threats, your all illegal operation. You mother fucker.
00:10:06I hope you like prison food, Andrew.
00:10:12Olivia. If you're starting your own practice, I want in.
00:10:17Don't forget about me.
00:10:19Count me in.
00:10:20Me too.
00:10:21Yes.
00:10:22Shut up! I'm your boss. Shut up.
00:10:24Shut up. Tell them come with corner offices. You might want to adjust your tone.
00:10:28I'm your boss.
00:10:50You too.
00:10:51You
00:10:58Hey
00:11:00Livia
00:11:02What brings you here?
00:11:05I'm just
00:11:07Checking in with my client
00:11:09Our contract is terminated
00:11:22One million
00:11:25As agreed
00:11:27What's going on?
00:11:33Nothing
00:11:34Just
00:11:36Services are no longer required
00:11:38Okay
00:11:41Fine
00:11:42That's your call
00:11:43I thought you should know
00:11:46Me and Stacey tie the knot next Tuesday
00:11:54Tuesday
00:12:02Tuesday
00:12:03Well
00:12:07Lovely
00:12:08Congratulations
00:12:11Thank you
00:12:13Thank you
00:12:14Look at you gorgeous
00:12:31Man would lighten up for miles
00:12:33Wayne can go
00:12:35Pounce some sand
00:12:36Lucy I love him
00:12:39So tell him already
00:12:43He's chosen someone else
00:12:47I'm done embarrassing myself
00:12:50This might cost me a friendship soon
00:13:03Don't screw this up
00:13:04Thank you
00:13:06You said we're done
00:13:11Why are you here again?
00:13:15Maybe you're drunk
00:13:16I don't need you
00:13:20Back off
00:13:22Dad
00:13:23I think she's in trouble
00:13:24Wait
00:13:25You're having trouble sweetheart
00:13:28Oh whoa whoa whoa
00:13:31Let's go
00:13:31It's fine
00:13:32You know what guys
00:13:33It doesn't matter
00:13:33See you later mate
00:13:34Come on
00:13:35Let's get you out
00:13:36Just leave me a long way
00:13:37Come on
00:13:38Just let me down
00:13:41Wayne
00:13:42Let me down you fucking jerk
00:13:44No just let me down
00:13:46Wayne
00:13:47No Wayne
00:13:48Just leave me alone
00:13:50Calm down
00:13:51You fucking jerk
00:13:52You're about to get married
00:13:54Why don't you just leave me alone
00:13:56Olivia calm down
00:13:57No
00:13:58What is this for you then
00:14:00Just your last chance to cheat
00:14:03Before you say yes I do
00:14:05No that's not why I'm here
00:14:07Why are you here then
00:14:08Get some rest
00:14:18Wait
00:14:21Has Mara got something on you
00:14:24No
00:14:25Do you have your own plans
00:14:28We don't belong together
00:14:31You said it yourself
00:14:34This was just sex to me
00:14:37What
00:14:54Sir
00:15:13You realize she might never forgive you for this
00:15:15Save it for her to know nothing
00:15:18But she's clever
00:15:19She'll figure it out
00:15:20She'll figure it out
00:15:21She'll hide it
00:15:22I'll be with her
00:15:26I'm
00:15:27Eat it
00:15:28I'm
00:15:29I'm
00:15:50Be honest. Actual love or family marriage?
00:16:03I mean, look at her. She's gorgeous. Who wouldn't fool for her?
00:16:10We've stayed seats for all of you. Come join our celebration.
00:16:15Everyone, we will be beginning momentarily, so if you could please take your assigned seating. Thank you.
00:16:23Mara!
00:16:28We will begin soon, so shall we? Everyone's inside.
00:16:40That's a buff of day, isn't it?
00:16:42Indeed, I'd forgotten what real sunshine feels like.
00:16:48Mum, what kind of man you think deserves me?
00:16:53One which will make you happy.
00:17:03Do you take this woman to be your wife?
00:17:13Wayne.
00:17:17I do.
00:17:21What the hell?!
00:17:24Wayne, what do you think you're-
00:17:25What do you think you're-
00:17:32Carlton! Is this how you, Carrington Street, my daughter?
00:17:36Guards! Throw them out! Now!
00:17:39She's my future daughter-in-law.
00:17:40Olivia Wilson. You touch her, you deal with me.
00:17:44Water-in-law? Father, I think you might be confused.
00:17:48I think you might be confused.
00:17:54Treptorous rat. We'll settle our accounts later. Every last one.
00:18:00Detain the Quinns. No one exits before I say.
00:18:04Carlton! What the hell is this?
00:18:07Don't play dumb, Jack.
00:18:10Tell them, Olivia.
00:18:20Lance Carrington died last month.
00:18:23Heart attack, they said.
00:18:25Now I have the real autopsy findings.
00:18:30This confirms he died from drug-induced arrhythmia.
00:18:37Mara, you are his wife.
00:18:42Explain.
00:18:44I had nothing to do with it, obviously.
00:18:49Look, Olivia, you can't just come in here and try and smear my name.
00:18:54Denial!
00:18:56Well, that's fine.
00:18:59John, refresh her memory, please.
00:19:04The night before once died, I went to his room for a contract signature.
00:19:09I heard fighting inside.
00:19:15Mara, I've loved you.
00:19:17I've given you everything.
00:19:18What more could you possibly want?
00:19:20I want it all.
00:19:22I want the entire Carrington Empire.
00:19:25Mara, I've loved you.
00:19:27I've given you everything.
00:19:28What more could you possibly want from me?
00:19:31I want it all.
00:19:32I want the entire Carrington Empire.
00:19:34You want these?
00:19:45Oh, yeah?
00:19:49Why don't you take them?
00:19:50Why don't you take all of them?
00:19:53Den!
00:19:59Why don't you take all of them?
00:20:04I want it all.
00:20:17His cardiac condition was very well managed until that day,
00:20:23when a lethal week's dosage entered his cistern.
00:20:34His murderer, the woman he loved the most, Mara Carrington.
00:20:48Mara, what drove you to kill your husband?
00:20:52Miss Carrington, was it money or revenge? Do you care to explain yourself?
00:20:56No, I didn't do anything. This is lies. She's lying. Don't listen to her!
00:21:04The Carringtons made you rich. Lance adored you, and you murdered him! You greedy, venomous snake.
00:21:17Jack! Help me! Don't let them do this!
00:21:21Help you? I don't even know who you are. There's been a mistake. I've never even met this woman.
00:21:29Jack, we have been sleeping together for ages, and you're going to cut me loose now! You spineless coward!
00:21:36Will you shut up?
00:21:39It's all lies. I'm innocent here. Stacy, we're leaving.
00:21:44Dad, I deserve your answers.
00:21:48Stacy, they're lying. All of it. You're my little girl. Everything I do is for you.
00:21:54You've known about Wayne's feelings for Olivia this whole time, right?
00:22:00I... I...
00:22:01This was never about me. It was about your agenda.
00:22:05No! You've got it wrong. Olivia, you little snake, why are you spreading lies about me?
00:22:11Lies?
00:22:16This...
00:22:16This shows years of conspiracy with Mara. Every transaction. Every offshore account.
00:22:28Deny all you want now. The Judge will hear your version soon enough.
00:22:34The Quinns destroyed people like you. Focus on your own problems first.
00:22:40Stacy, let me explain. I was only trying to explain...
00:22:44Dad, how could you?
00:22:46I was only trying to explain...
00:22:48Stacy, this has never been personal. In different circumstances, we could have been friends.
00:22:56Friends? Please, drop the innocent act.
00:23:00You stole Wayne from me. You're just as bad.
00:23:03Storm?
00:23:06Wayne.
00:23:08Stacy, we've been through this. I'm sorry, but I never wanted you.
00:23:16It's all because of you!
00:23:18You bitch!
00:23:20I've been patient to that. That just ran out!
00:23:24Worts will take care of Jack. Now you, if you ever interfere, you will be the next one, I promise you.
00:23:32Carlton.
00:23:33We go way back. How about cutting me some slack?
00:23:37I'm too old.
00:23:39Carlton's of new leadership now.
00:23:43Olivia, Olivia, my daughter-in-law.
00:23:49My daughter-in-law.
00:23:49That's your girl and my boy.
00:24:00They fit, don't they?
00:24:01They fit, don't they?
00:24:09Olivia, I was afraid you wouldn't come.
00:24:15Your message found me.
00:24:17Wild horses couldn't keep me away.
00:24:27Mara's working with the Quinns.
00:24:29The courts won't help us.
00:24:30I need you at my wedding to Stacy to expose them with all of those cameras watching.
00:24:36Olivia, I love you.
00:24:38When this is all over, I'm going to marry you.
00:24:47I had to be here.
00:24:50Because I love you.
00:24:53You may kiss the bride.
00:25:00I, Elisa, a nobody in the workplace, single since birth for 23 years, never even held a man's hand, but last night I accidentally slept with my boss.
00:25:29He's a CEO.
00:25:30He's the kind of guy that you read about in novels.
00:25:33And he already has a woman in his heart.
00:25:59I'm going to come in and see.
00:26:03Elisa!
00:26:03Hey mom.
00:26:04Please come home as soon as possible.
00:26:06I just received an order from the court since we are unable to repay the huge debt your father owed.
00:26:12Our house will be auctioned off to pay off the debt!
00:26:15We must move out of the house now.
00:26:18Don't worry, I'm gonna be right there.
00:26:20Oh my god, is she?
00:26:21Mom, are you okay?
00:26:22I'm fine, honey.
00:26:28I'm so sorry I couldn't save the house.
00:26:32Don't worry.
00:26:33As long as we're together, we'll get through this difficult time.
00:26:38I'm sorry.
00:26:41Is there anything else in there?
00:26:43No, this is it.
00:26:47One second, okay? I'll be right back.
00:26:50Hello?
00:26:51Lisa, where are you?
00:26:53Don't you remember where we're supposed to meet?
00:26:56In the conference room at 9.
00:26:57Manager Smith's gone crazy looking for you.
00:27:00I'm so sorry, but something unexpected happened at home.
00:27:02And, um, if you could please just tell management that...
00:27:06Hello?
00:27:09No, no, no, no, no, no, fuck.
00:27:12I just lost my house, and now I'm gonna lose my job, too?
00:27:16Where am I gonna find a million dollars?
00:27:18Thanks.
00:27:22Lisa?
00:27:24Why are you crying?
00:27:26Mr. Hawthorne, what are you doing here?
00:27:28Oh, I'm actually here for you.
00:27:29What?
00:27:30I need a marriage partner.
00:27:33Again, what?
00:27:34I need you to be my wife.
00:27:36Give it a thought.
00:27:40Mr. Hawthorne, I was really drunk last night, and I can't remember how everything happened after, but you really don't...
00:27:47Look, I know some unfortunate things have happened in your family recently.
00:27:51This card has more than enough on it to pay off all your debts, and make sure that your house doesn't get auctioned off.
00:28:00If you agree, we can get the marriage certificate right now.
00:28:12Why do you want to help me?
00:28:13I told you, I need a wife.
00:28:17And you're the most suitable person.
00:28:25Okay.
00:28:26It's for my family.
00:28:28I have no other way.
00:28:32Mr. Hawthorne?
00:28:34Thank you so much for helping me.
00:28:36I promise I will pay you back every cent as soon as I can.
00:28:39You don't pay me back more than happy.
00:28:41I'm going to get back to work, then.
00:28:45Ronan will actually take you back.
00:28:48And I'll give you my home address, so you can move in tonight.
00:28:51Your home address?
00:28:52We're legally married.
00:28:54What's wrong with living together?
00:28:56Right.
00:28:57This is a deal.
00:28:58I can't just take the money and give nothing in return.
00:29:01I can get myself to work.
00:29:03And I'll be back on time tonight.
00:29:11Alisa, you're finally mine.
00:29:17Oh my god!
00:29:20I'm so sorry.
00:29:21It was reading and I didn't see you there.
00:29:23No, no worries.
00:29:23It's fine.
00:29:29Can I have your name?
00:29:30I'm Alisa.
00:29:33Yo!
00:29:33Never knew Mr. Hawthorne would have such a silly smile moment.
00:29:38Thanks.
00:29:38It's real?
00:29:43If your mom finds out you married a Cinderella...
00:29:46Alright, give it back.
00:29:47Then watch your mouth.
00:29:48Hello, everyone.
00:30:05Please, help yourself to have some cake.
00:30:08Thank you, Miss Hart.
00:30:09You are so very kind.
00:30:11It's really such an honor to work.
00:30:13Please, don't flatter me.
00:30:15I have to go see Mr. Hawthorne right now.
00:30:18He must want to see me right now.
00:30:20Save a slice for me, honey.
00:30:23When do you think they will make their relationship public?
00:30:26Probably soon.
00:30:27Last time I accidentally saw Mr. Hawthorne unlock his phone,
00:30:30the code is 0903 and is Fred's birthday.
00:30:33Isn't it a little too obvious?
00:30:35Wow, I never knew Mr. Hawthorne would be so romantic.
00:30:37He usually puts on a poker face.
00:30:39Amelia, my relationship with Mr. Hawthorne...
00:30:43I still don't.
00:30:45I still don't.
00:30:55Okay.
00:30:590903.
00:31:04That's Summer's birthday again.
00:31:05They love each other so much, then...
00:31:08It's okay.
00:31:09Whatever it is.
00:31:10He's just not getting his money back.
00:31:12All right.
00:31:15Why aren't you coming in?
00:31:22Why aren't you coming in?
00:31:25Mr. Hawthorne, I think that we should...
00:31:45What should I do? Am I supposed to sleep with him tonight?
00:31:51I know that we did that before, but...
00:31:54I was drunk.
00:31:58If I turn him down, will he get angry? But...
00:32:02If I don't...
00:32:03Melissa? You okay?
00:32:05I'm fine. Thank you for asking.
00:32:15I'm... I'm not ready.
00:32:22I was... just gonna turn off the light.
00:32:26What'd you think I was gonna do?
00:32:28Oh yeah, no...
00:32:30Don't get me wrong, I just meant I wasn't ready to sleep yet.
00:32:34Alisa, I don't want some one-night stand.
00:32:38I want to be your everything.
00:32:40Matthew, why did the negotiations with the Sunlight Group fail?
00:32:47It's... Elisa's fault.
00:32:49If she hadn't skipped work that day, we could have succeeded.
00:32:52How is it her fault?
00:32:54Please give me a reasonable explanation.
00:32:56I heard someone saw Mr. Hawthorne entering her hotel room the night before Elisa skipped work.
00:33:04What? What did you say to me?
00:33:07It is absolutely true.
00:33:08Not only did she cause our failure, but she dared to seduce Mr. Hawthorne when you were away.
00:33:22Matthew, you know how important our negotiations with the Sunlight Group is.
00:33:28And since it is your subordinate's fault, you know what to do, right?
00:33:34Mr. Shrewd, I know what to do.
00:33:42Last night, with Lucian laying beside me, I couldn't sleep at all.
00:33:48Elisa, is this how you do your job? Look what trouble you brought us!
00:33:52It is because of you that we lost the project with Sunlight Group. You're fired.
00:33:57Mr. Clark, I was only in charge of the initial budget, not the negotiations. I don't understand how this could be my fault.
00:34:03Did you forget about your unexcused absence last time?
00:34:07That's because something unexpected happened at home, but I called in for a leave of action.
00:34:11So what? We needed you last minute and you weren't there. Now that the project has failed. If you're not to blame, who else would it be?
00:34:19I was absent that day, yes, but I prepared the initial budget ahead of time, so there is no way that my absence would have affected the negotiations.
00:34:29Wouldn't have affected the negotiations?
00:34:32Elisa, take a closer look. What did you write in the project budget?
00:34:40No, no, no, no, this isn't right. I wrote 50 million. How did it become 5 million?
00:34:49For a professional budget analyst, you've made such a sloppy mistake.
00:34:55Elisa, do you have anything else to say for yourself?
00:34:58Looks like Elisa is in trouble.
00:35:01Elisa always strikes me as a professional. How could she make such an error?
00:35:05Keep it down. Can't you see? They're just trying to find something to take responsibility.
00:35:14Wait, I have evidence to prove that my budget was correct.
00:35:17Evidence? Then why don't you show it to everyone?
00:35:20I have the dated source files on my computer that can show that I had the right numbers.
00:35:24No, no, they were right here. How could they be gone?
00:35:28Elisa, are you joking? Where's your so-called evidence?
00:35:32Elisa, are you suggesting that Mr. Clark and Ms. Hart are conspiring against you?
00:35:39You better pack up and leave now before making a bigger fool out of yourself.
00:35:43What are you saying? I've seen the budget Elisa made. We all checked it as a team.
00:35:48Obviously, someone tampered with it.
00:35:53Are you saying that we are framing her?
00:35:55At the very least, she deserves a good reason to be fine.
00:35:58Fine. If anyone else can vouch for Elisa, I can give her a second chance. Anyone?
00:36:08Weren't you there when we checked that time?
00:36:10I don't remember.
00:36:12Since there's no one, Elisa, would you like to walk yourself out or would you like me to have someone escort you out?
00:36:24This better be something important.
00:36:26Mr. Hawthorne, the business department is in uproar.
00:36:29So? Can't Summer handle it?
00:36:31She started it. Her and Mr. Clark are trying to fire Mrs. Hawthorne.
00:36:36Let's go.
00:36:39Amelia, it's okay.
00:36:41They clearly just want someone to blame for this entire thing.
00:36:43So what should we do then? Allow them to push all the blame onto you?
00:36:49Ms. Hart? Mr. Clark?
00:36:52I'll step down from my position, but I will never admit to mistakes that I didn't make.
00:36:57I will get down to the bottom of this.
00:36:59You're shameless. The evidence is right here.
00:37:02Where do you get the nerve to deny it?
00:37:04Besides the project book, there's also surveillance footage, and there are computer backend logs.
00:37:09All of these will prove that my budget was correct, and I will investigate this until the end.
00:37:15There is no need for an investigation. You have already been fired.
00:37:21Since you refused to leave, security? Track her out.
00:37:26Elisa, you dare to seduce the man I like when I'm not around? You'll never set foot in Hawthorne Group ever again.
00:37:43Summer? What are you doing?
00:37:45Lucien, what brings you here?
00:37:47Let her go.
00:37:49What's going on with these two? Am I fired or not? Could it be I'm just a pawn in their game?
00:37:58Care to explain what's going on?
00:37:59Well, Elisa made a big mistake at work, so I fired her. But she refused to leave, disrupting everyone at work. So Matthew called security to escort her out.
00:38:09Fired for what?
00:38:10Here's the thing, Mr. Hawthorne. The negotiations with the Sunlight Group failed due to Elisa's mistake. We had to let her go according to company regulations.
00:38:18You set me up with some half-baked plan, tried to fire me, and then called security. Is that within the lines of regulation?
00:38:26Elisa, how dare you question company regulations in front of Mr. Hawthorne?
00:38:30Lucien, see? She won't admit her mistakes, and she even questions you in public.
00:38:35Oh god, now I'm really fired.
00:38:40Elisa actually talked back to Mr. Hawthorne. She has to be fired now.
00:38:47I'm actually pitying her, no matter what.
00:38:50Pitying her? You're an employee too. Mind your own business.
00:38:55Elisa, you sure are bald, aren't you?
00:38:58Elisa, don't you know what Mr. Hawthorne means? Hurry up and leave.
00:39:02Of course Lucien is on Summer's side. I'm just his wife out of nowhere.
00:39:08Surely I'm no match for his lover.
00:39:17Hold on.
00:39:22Did I tell you to leave?
00:39:23You're not angry?
00:39:24Why would I be angry?
00:39:25The company needs to find out who's responsible for Sunrise Group project first.
00:39:30Ronan, take charge of that.
00:39:31Yes, Mr. Hawthorne.
00:39:32So what you're saying is I'm not fired.
00:39:35At least for now.
00:39:37Lucien, Elisa not only made mistakes on this project, but she was absent from work without permission, and she defied you in public.
00:39:43Summer, I'll handle company policy, okay?
00:39:45But we never, ever fire an employee for no reason.
00:39:51I... I agree with Lucien.
00:39:55Matthew, I told you to wait till the investigation was done, but you insisted that the results were clear. Apologize to Mr. Hawthorne right now!
00:40:03Yes, Ms. Hart.
00:40:05Is Lucien helping me? But as a CEO, he needs to do things fairly in front of his employees. This proves nothing.
00:40:12Elisa, may I have a few words with you?
00:40:19Elisa, you are damn lucky this time. But you won't be for the next time.
00:40:34Mr. Hawthorne, if this is about the project, and I'm so sorry that you were bothered...
00:40:38Do you think that's why I brought you here?
00:40:40Next time something like that happens, come see me. Don't let me handle it.
00:40:45You're so busy. I didn't want to bother you.
00:40:49We're married.
00:40:53You can do whatever you want.
00:40:55We're at the office. Don't fool around.
00:40:58Fool around?
00:41:00Well, that's not the proper thing, since we're married.
00:41:04Well, by that I guess you mean that I should act like your wife all the time?
00:41:09Even while we're at work?
00:41:11That's not necessarily what I mean.
00:41:14Okay.
00:41:16Well, if that's all, Mr. Hawthorne, I guess I'll be going back to work.
00:41:19I'm sorry.
00:41:26Elisa.
00:41:28Remember my words. Stay awake.
00:41:33Elisa, when you were in Mr. Hawthorne's office...
00:41:36Amelia!
00:41:38I can't really understand the data over here. Can you help me, please?
00:41:40Miss Hart? May I help you?
00:41:46You are still under investigation. Now isn't the current time for you to be working on company projects.
00:41:55But I was just looking over the project budget for the next thing.
00:41:59Your current mission is to go downstairs and fetch me a cup of coffee.
00:42:02Can't you see the trash is full? Clean it.
00:42:05Miss Hart.
00:42:06Miss Hart.
00:42:08I'm an analyst. I'm not an intern.
00:42:10What? Are you defying your superior?
00:42:13Someone is really ignorant. She hasn't been clarified yet.
00:42:17Now she's defying her superior. Does she think she owns the company?
00:42:21Right? Miss Hart is not just a daughter of a noble family.
00:42:25She also has an unusual relationship with our president.
00:42:28It would be in your best interest to help Miss Hart with the trifecta.
00:42:32Stop being ungrateful.
00:42:33Elisa, I can have you fired for defying your superior. So you better choose wisely.
00:42:40You're right. I like my job. And I'm going to become an excellent executive in my dream company.
00:42:47Fine. I'll do it.
00:42:50Better to bend than break, huh? It doesn't matter. Let's see how long you can keep tolerating.
00:43:04Miss Hart? Your coffee?
00:43:05Hand it to me.
00:43:15Oh my god! This coffee is so hot! It almost burned me alive!
00:43:19Oh my god, I'm so sorry. Are you okay?
00:43:21Don't you know I only drink ice Americano? Who hired you anyway?
00:43:25I'm so sorry. I will go buy you one right now.
00:43:28Can't you see there's coffee on the floor? Clean it up. Now.
00:43:30Who told you you could mop the floor with that? If you damage the floors, can you afford to pay for them?
00:43:43How exactly would you like me to mop the floor, Miss Hart?
00:43:46With a cloth on your hands and knees. Inch by inch.
00:43:50Sorry, don't you think you're going a little too far?
00:43:54What? Can't handle it? You could always qu-
00:44:00Well, by that I guess you mean, I should act like your wife all the time. Even while we're at work.
00:44:09Mr. Hawthorne, there's an upcoming online meeting with an overseas company.
00:44:13Uh huh.
00:44:15Hey, is the business department next to the meeting room?
00:44:17Yes, Mr. Hawthorne.
00:44:19Let's pay the visit first.
00:44:21He was just at work. Mrs. Hawthorne and he's already so eager to see her. He's completely in love for that.
00:44:26I'm sorry.
00:44:29Miss Hart, would you please lift your foot?
00:44:34Oh, I'm sorry. I didn't do it, Hart.
00:44:39Elise, when you would seduce Lucien when I was away, have you ever thought of today?
00:44:45I didn't seduce him.
00:44:47He didn't!
00:44:49Do you really think I wouldn't know because I was away?
00:44:52You didn't!
00:44:53If you seduce Lucien, then you must be prepared for my review.
00:44:57Summer, what the hell are you doing?
00:44:58Lucien!
00:45:00Elise is still under investigation, right?
00:45:01She's not suitable for working on company projects, so I had her doing simpler tasks like fetching me coffee, but she spilled the coffee on purpose.
00:45:11That isn't true!
00:45:12It doesn't matter anyway, I don't blame her for it, but she insisted on wiping it up.
00:45:16I stepped on her by accident. I was about to apologize to her.
00:45:20Is that so?
00:45:22Elise, is that actually what happened?
00:45:24Lucien is in love with Summer.
00:45:25Even if I told the truth, would he believe me?
00:45:29Yes, it's the truth.
00:45:32Come with me to my office.
00:45:35Come!
00:45:37Why on earth did Lucien call Elisa to his office again?
00:45:42I must find out.
00:45:46Have a seat.
00:45:48Your hands hurt.
00:45:50You need an advantage.
00:45:51It's really fine.
00:45:53I can just go home and-
00:45:54No, no, I got it all right here.
00:45:56Have a seat.
00:46:01Alright, let's see.
00:46:03You know, Summer is competent, but she can be bossy and overbearing.
00:46:09I can transfer you to another department if you can't bear her.
00:46:13Maybe mine.
00:46:14So we need to spend more time together.
00:46:16No. No, I'm fine in the business department.
00:46:19Elisa, you're my wife.
00:46:21I don't want you to be bullied anymore.
00:46:22Stop pretending like you don't know she only does that because she's in love with you.
00:46:27Okay. Last step.
00:46:31Okay. Just don't let this hand touch water for a little bit.
00:46:34Thank you, Mr. Hawthorne.
00:46:36It's just the two of us.
00:46:39You can call me by my name.
00:46:41Well, we're at work. I thought I shouldn't.
00:46:43Yeah, why shouldn't you?
00:46:45Lucien, why did you marry me?
00:46:47And why do you keep defending me?
00:46:49Do you really not know why?
00:46:50We've known each other since high school, but he's always kind of ignored me.
00:46:56Hasn't he always had a thing for Summer?
00:46:59Or could it be that everyone has been wrong all along?
00:47:05Elisa always goes against me, making me embarrassed.
00:47:08She's the worst!
00:47:10I have an idea that doesn't require us to get involved and can make Elisa lead Mr. Hawthorne.
00:47:15What is it?
00:47:17Everyone knows that Mr. Hawthorne is devoted to his mother.
00:47:21If we tell her about Elisa seducing Mr. Hawthorne, then...
00:47:26Good idea.
00:47:28Mia is the matriarch of the Hawthorne family.
00:47:32She's very clever.
00:47:34But she never got involved in the family business and she's lived in seclusion abroad for years.
00:47:40Even I haven't spoken to her.
00:47:41All we need to do is send an anonymous text message to Mrs. Hawthorne.
00:47:47Then we just need to wait for Elisa to be expelled from the Hawthorne family.
00:47:57I went through great lengths to get this, but I never contacted her because I didn't have a reason.
00:48:04Do it for me.
00:48:06When Elisa is dealt with, you will be rewarded.
00:48:12It's my pleasure to help you, Miss Hart.
00:48:15I just hope that when you become the President's wife, you won't forget me.
00:48:22Of course not.
00:48:23Mr. Hawthorne, you received an anonymous message on your phone.
00:48:35What does it say?
00:48:37It says that Mr. Hawthorne is fixing her own Mr. Hawthorne.
00:48:40She charmed him so much that he's been ignoring his Hawthorne group affairs.
00:48:43Book me a flight.
00:48:44I need to go back immediately.
00:48:45Oh my god.
00:48:46I'm going to be late again today.
00:48:47Ow!
00:48:48Ow!
00:48:49Ow!
00:48:50Ow!
00:48:51Ow!
00:48:52Ow!
00:48:53Ow!
00:48:54Ow!
00:48:55Ow!
00:48:56Ow!
00:48:57Ow!
00:48:58Ow!
00:48:59Ow!
00:49:00Ow!
00:49:01Ow!
00:49:02Ow!
00:49:03Ow!
00:49:04Ow!
00:49:05Ow!
00:49:14Ow!
00:49:15How'd you find a light touch?
00:49:16I have no idea how you must have fallen like that.
00:49:18Are you trying to leave me?
00:49:19Because I don't know what's the matter with your generation.
00:49:22Having no respect for the elderly.
00:49:23What?
00:49:24How did I...
00:49:25Ow!
00:49:26Ow!
00:49:27Okay.
00:49:28Here, can I help you get up first?
00:49:30Yeah.
00:49:31How can a young girl be so bad? She hits somebody, doesn't want to take responsibility.
00:49:36She looks good, but she's out beyond the inside.
00:49:39No, no, no, the truth is that- never mind. Okay, uh, ma'am, do you have your family's contact information? I can help you reach out to them.
00:49:48Family? Who are my family? I don't remember.
00:49:54You don't remember who your family is? Uh, I don't remember anything. What do I do?
00:50:03You don't remember where you live? I don't remember anything. Okay.
00:50:07What do I do? I- how- how about I take you to the hospital and then to a police station?
00:50:14No, no, no, no, no. I'm not going to a hospital or a police station. I don't trust anybody.
00:50:20Oh, no. I'm going to be late. But there's the weekly department meeting today. I can't take leave.
00:50:27Okay, uh, ma'am, since you're not going anywhere, how about I take you to my company office?
00:50:33And then after work, I'll help you find your family.
00:50:35Fine. Because you need to take responsibility for this. You cannot leave my side.
00:50:41Okay. Okay.
00:50:43Ow, ow, ow, ow, ow!
00:50:45How did the matter about Matriarch Robinson go?
00:50:48Rest assured, Miss Hart. It's said that Matriarch Robinson was furious upon hearing the news and returned home immediately.
00:50:56Really? Then Alisa will be out of here soon.
00:51:00Yes. Congratulations in advance, Miss Hart.
00:51:04Let's go. There's a weekly meeting of the business department and Lucian will be there personally.
00:51:09We can't afford to make a mistake.
00:51:12Um, Amelia's gone on a work trip so you can sit in her spot while she's gone.
00:51:18If, if you get bored, you can just play on my phone.
00:51:23Okay, and we have to keep our voices down because people are working.
00:51:26Okay, I just want to know if I can play with this.
00:51:28Everyone, the weekly meeting is about to begin.
00:51:32Alisa, why did you bring a cleaner to work?
00:51:35Alisa really treats the company as her home, being anyone she likes.
00:51:39Seriously, so filthy. It's disgusting just looking at them.
00:51:45Alisa, our entire department is filled up with work, and you?
00:51:50If we have to delay our work, are you going to take responsibility for that?
00:51:54Miss Hart, this woman might have some trouble with her memory, so I'm only bringing her here temporarily.
00:51:59I was going to help her find her family after work, and if she could just sit here for the time being, I promise that she won't disturb anybody.
00:52:06You mean you brought this old hag in off the street, and she's also sick?
00:52:11I think you're crazy. Picking up an old hag like this, reeking of poverty, stinking up the whole office?
00:52:19Where did you find her? In a sewer?
00:52:21What if this old hag isn't just mentally ill, but also could infect us all with some disease?
00:52:26Yeah, Miss Hart really thinks we should call a cleaner later to disinfect everywhere this lady's been.
00:52:31How could all of you be so cool? Don't you all have families too?
00:52:36What if one of them had lost their memory, and needed your help?
00:52:39This girl? She's interesting. I'm not the one who's sick.
00:52:43You're sick!
00:52:43Disgusting. Elisa, our company has rules and regulations. It's not a place for you to show your kindness.
00:52:53Get this old hag out of here now.
00:52:56Ms. Hart, there is nothing in our company policy that discourages helping somebody in need.
00:53:00In fact, it encourages us to do so.
00:53:02Oh, there isn't?
00:53:04Well, now there is.
00:53:07Do you have a problem? Ms. Hart is a senior leader in our company.
00:53:11She can represent our president, and now she just happened to add another company rule.
00:53:15Even if she asks security to drag you out, there's nothing you can do. Understand?
00:53:22How come the employees of the business department are like this?
00:53:26Lucian will be here soon from the business department.
00:53:28Elisa, you have two minutes. If you don't get this old hag out of here, I will fire you.
00:53:34You can go beg on the street with her. Maybe then you'll make more money than you do now.
00:53:38Oh, my God, Summer, you are really pushing it. Tell me, what else can you do besides flaunt your authority?
00:53:45I'm reporting you to Mr. Hawthorne.
00:53:48As a low-level employee, you have contradicted me one too many times,
00:53:53and now you dare go see Mr. Hawthorne? You're fired.
00:53:59Two years. Two years away from this company,
00:54:01and I never thought that the business department at the Hawthorne Group would decay into the state.
00:54:09Elisa will not be fired. You will.
00:54:13Matthew, did I just hear this old hag say she's gonna fire us?
00:54:17She has a problem with her brain, that's why she's talking crazy.
00:54:21Ms. Hart is our president's wife-to-be. Fiering her? Too ridiculous.
00:54:27Besides memory loss, is she also crazy? Why are they saying president's wife? Isn't it you?
00:54:35Are all of you quite finished? I can't believe how shallow you are.
00:54:38You are kind and righteous, so you never use Lucian's identity to gain power.
00:54:44But you?
00:54:45Okay, ma'am, it's okay. I'm going to help you find your family. Let's go.
00:54:49Why do we need to leave? Why don't they leave first?
00:54:51Fine, since you're determined to cling to us.
00:54:55Matthew, get this old hag out of here right now!
00:54:58You've got guts. I'll see who dares to kick me out of here today.
00:55:10You actually dared to hit me, Ms. Hart?
00:55:19Alisa, this woman attacked my subordinate. I could have her sent to a mental hospital.
00:55:25You don't have the authority.
00:55:26Of course I do. She hit my subordinate. I can reasonably deduce she has some mental issues.
00:55:31How many times do I have to tell you? Yes, this woman is clearly sick,
00:55:35but naturally I'm going to find her family to let them handle it.
00:55:38If you and Matthew hadn't instigated this, none of this would have happened.
00:55:42This woman's actions can only be described as self-defense.
00:55:44Yeah, I think you're the one who's crazy. You don't respect the elderly. You're not
00:55:49qualified to be a leader. I don't know why your company's higher-ups even chose you.
00:55:56Oh, are you angry?
00:56:02Matthew, make these two disappear from my sight!
00:56:04Security, throw both of them out of Hawthorne Group!
00:56:10With me here, they can't drive you away. I tell you, I am...
00:56:15Sarah, what are you doing?
00:56:16Oh my god, why does Lucian come to the business department every day?
00:56:22Fine. I guess we'll have another showdown.
00:56:25Wayne.
00:56:26Well, it's like this. Elisa brought this woman in off the street, who smells terrible,
00:56:30and insisted on having her in the office, which was disrupting everyone's work,
00:56:35so I'm only thinking of the company.
00:56:37Yes, Mr. Hawthorne. What if she has some contagious disease and infects everyone?
00:56:42I take full responsibility for this incident. If the company wishes, I can hand in my resignation.
00:56:49Hawthorne Group is not an impersonal company. Elisa's done well.
00:56:54From today forward, they'll be promoted to team leader and oversee projects as a reward.
00:56:59Mr. Hawthorne, I'm... I'm afraid I'm not qualified for this position.
00:57:04I believe everyone here knows your abilities well. As for you, you can go to HR and they'll handle your resignation.
00:57:15He is the backbone of the business department. If you fire him, there'll be no elites left.
00:57:20Summer, you've managed the business department into a mess. You're responsible for that.
00:57:24I promise to manage the business department better. This won't happen again.
00:57:28I promise you. Why have you not apologized to this madame and Miss Vale yet?
00:57:36I'm sorry. Please forgive me.
00:57:39Why are you apologizing first? This one almost just put me into a mental hospital.
00:57:43You old hag. How dare you ask me to apologize.
00:57:47Miss Hart? Apologize.
00:57:52Sorry. I'm sorry. I can't hear you.
00:57:58I was wrong. I'm sorry.
00:58:03And you, Bryce?
00:58:08I'm sorry.
00:58:08Sorry.
00:58:12Have I been misunderstanding him all this time? Could it be...
00:58:16Well, that's the end of that matter. I'll take care of this...
00:58:19lady. And help her find her... family.
00:58:23Listen, why did you call me over? What if Elisa finds out?
00:58:26Well, what exactly are you trying to do?
00:58:29I want to test my daughter-in-law.
00:58:32Haven't you tested her enough today? She's great. You saw that.
00:58:39Oh, Lucien. You're quite loyal, aren't you?
00:58:46Enough.
00:58:46Fine.
00:58:48Look, um, Elisa is a very good girl, but it seems she doesn't even know that you like her. Nor does
00:58:58anyone else know that she's your wife. Why are you keeping this marriage so secretive?
00:59:03I don't know how to tell her. I'm afraid that if we make our relationship public, pressure will be too much for her.
00:59:11Lucien, when did you become such a coward?
00:59:15Look, if you like her, just confess boldly. You don't want to wait till Elisa falls for
00:59:21some other guy before you feel regret, do you?
00:59:26Regret what?
00:59:26Nothing. Please, come sit.
00:59:35Elisa, I'm sorry. I was deceptive earlier.
00:59:39I...I'm actually Lucien's mother.
00:59:44What?
00:59:45Please, let me explain. Um, a few days ago I got an anonymous text saying that some
00:59:54woman was trying to seduce Lucien, and I got afraid that he might get tricked. Anyway, Elisa,
01:00:01can you please forgive me?
01:00:07Yes, Mrs. Hofforn, I understand. You're just looking out for your son.
01:00:11But I am concerned that the person who sent that text must have had bad intentions.
01:00:15I have an idea who sent it. Oh yeah.
01:00:17Good. And Elisa, I heard that Lucien plans on taking you to a very fancy dinner tonight.
01:00:25Okay.
01:00:26There's actually something I want to talk to you about.
01:00:31Lucien, why aren't you eating?
01:00:41Yeah. Of course.
01:00:46Well, Elisa, what do you want to ask me?
01:00:49If you want a divorce, it's not going to happen.
01:00:52Why would you think I want a divorce?
01:00:53Okay. I've been meaning to ask you. You've liked Summer for 10 years.
01:01:07I mean, why would you marry me? Why protect me at every turn?
01:01:11Hold on. You think I've liked Summer for 10 years?
01:01:14Judging by his reaction, he must have been caught off guard. Elisa, you're being too presumptuous.
01:01:22Seriously, why would I have liked her for 10 years?
01:01:24Elisa, I've liked you for 10 years.
01:01:29What?
01:01:32How could that possibly be-
01:01:32From the first day we met, I fell for you.
01:01:35But because of the conflict between our parents, I chose to give them.
01:01:43I wanted to show you that I cared for you, but I couldn't. I was afraid that it would put you in danger.
01:01:49I'm really sorry, Elisa. All these years I've suppressed my feelings for you.
01:01:55I fought tooth and nail to be the head of the Hawthorne family.
01:02:02And now it's taken me a decade to fully stand by you like this.
01:02:07So why now?
01:02:08I was afraid if I told you, you didn't like me. I wouldn't even be commis anymore.
01:02:14So what's wrong?
01:02:16So when you sat next to me all those years ago, it wasn't because you didn't like your food?
01:02:20Hey, I don't really like this.
01:02:34Yeah, I'm really sorry. I couldn't show you my feelings in the proper way.
01:02:42But then, why did you write some of that love letter back then?
01:02:45One love letter. I only remember delivering a party invitation to her from my parents.
01:02:52Well, why are all your passwords Summer's birthday?
01:02:55You mean 0903? What does that have to do with Summer? I don't even know her birthday.
01:03:01So then what's 0903 to you?
01:03:03Elisa, 0903. September 3rd. It's the day we first met.
01:03:10So it was all just a misunderstanding?
