Short filmTranscript
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.
00:00:26I knew his heart still belonged to another woman, but I kept hoping that maybe, someday, he'd finally turn around and see me.
00:00:36Mr. Harrington, I'll go draw you a bath.
00:00:47You...
00:00:50I'll take care of you.
00:00:56I thought my dream had finally come true...
00:01:10...until my daughter was born.
00:01:13That's when I realized, no matter how hard you try, you can never thaw a heart made of ice.
00:01:23It's been seven years and I'm still haunted by that night. Every mistake I've made, it's all started with that dream.
00:01:33Mommy, did you have a bad dream?
00:01:36No, no sweetheart, I'm fine.
00:01:38Are we really moving out? But, Daddy hugged me tonight. Does that mean he's starting to like me?
00:01:45Sweetheart, your daddy's true love is coming back, so we can't stay here anymore.
00:01:53But, he gave me the stuffed bunny tonight. If he didn't like me, why would he buy me a gift?
00:01:59Should I tell her Richard's only happy because his one true love is coming back from abroad? Or, her gift came from another woman's shadow?
00:02:11Daddy, you're home!
00:02:14Is she too dumb to understand my words or is he you?
00:02:18How many times must I say this? She is never to call me Dad!
00:02:24I'm sorry Uncle Richard.
00:02:31You don't have to like me, but Amy is your daughter. How 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.
00:02:44Is that your idea of not hurting your daughter?
00:02:47I've already explained it a thousand times. It only happened that night because you were-
00:02:52Enough!
00:02:53I don't want to hear it anymore.
00:02:55It's all my fault.
00:02:57Mommy, I'll go return.
00:02:59Please 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. The 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, what if we leave Uncle Richard together?
00:03:29Will you come with Mommy?
00:03:31Can we stay?
00:03:32You can even let me call him Dad once.
00:03:36He doesn't want us here.
00:03:38Mommy can take you away.
00:03:40Can we give Uncle Richard three more chances?
00:03:43If he really doesn't like us, we'll leave him.
00:03:47We're good.
00:03:51Okay.
00:03:56Richard Arrington, my daughter and I are giving you three more chances.
00:04:00After that, you'll have no place in our home. Ever.
00:04:09Zoe, are you really quitting the job?
00:04:12Yeah.
00:04:13Um, Amy'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.
00:04:22Come, Jen.
00:04:31Zoe, did you see that?
00:04:33Mr. Harrington, our Iceberg CEO, is bringing someone with him for the first time ever.
00:04:39Evelyn York. She really is stunning.
00:04:49No wonder Richard's never gotten over her all these years.
00:04:52Even when he was drunk, he was still calling her name in my bed.
00:04:57Who's that girl?
00:04:59She 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.
00:05:08Miss Evelyn York here will be joining us at the company
00:05:10and taking the position as my new personal assistant.
00:05:13Zoe, what are you going to do if she takes your place as his assistant?
00:05:17I'm leaving soon anyways.
00:05:19It's perfect timing for her to show up.
00:05:21I can't believe the Harrington Corp would just parachute someone in like that.
00:05:27Not just someone. She's that one.
00:05:31Wait, he's in Zoe, Mr. Harrington's personal assistant?
00:05:35And now Evelyn's here, so what does that mean for Zoe?
00:05:39Will she lose her job?
00:05:40I've been here for years, and this is the first time I've ever seen them drop someone in like this.
00:05:45Everyone else started from the bottom and worked their way up.
00:05:48Don'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?
00:05:56I 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.
00:06:09I'm so excited to be joining the company and becoming part of the Harrington family.
00:06:16I'd really appreciate your guidance as I get settled in.
00:06:22What?
00:06:23Zoe worked herself to the bone, bringing in all those big clients to become the CEO's personal assistant.
00:06:29Exactly.
00:06:30Everyone can see how skilled Zoe is, and yet suddenly someone comes along and steals her position.
00:06:36It's so unfair.
00:06:37I feel so bad for Zoe.
00:06:39Come on.
00:06:40You're near here.
00:06:41Let me show you around.
00:06:42Richard, you've got so much work to do.
00:06:45I don't want to be a burden.
00:06:48Maybe Zoe could show me around?
00:06:57Actually, I've got a lot on my plate right now.
00:07:01Then forget it.
00:07:03Never mind.
00:07:05No, no.
00:07:06Show her around.
00:07:07It won't take too much of your time.
00:07:14Hi.
00:07:19This is the conference room.
00:07:21I've shown you everything you need to see.
00:07:25You get it now, don't you, Zoe?
00:07:27Zoe, no matter how hard you work, in Richard's heart, I'm the one that matters the most.
00:07:36What?
00:07:37Can't handle the truth?
00:07:41Well, he's just using you for pleasure.
00:07:46One call for me, and he flies overseas just to see me.
00:07:50Then I wish you two a lifetime of happiness, for as long as you both shall live.
00:07:55You're saying one thing and doing another.
00:08:00You think I don't see right through you, you two-faced slut.
00:08:06How else do you think you got pregnant?
00:08:08How else do you think you got pregnant?
00:08:11I almost feel sorry for your daughter.
00:08:14She's Richard's blood, and yet he treats my daughter like she's his own.
00:08:21Do you know why that is?
00:08:23Well, if you're so confident, then why don't you convince Richard to make you his wife?
00:08:28Unless, of course, you're hiding something.
00:08:32What are you so afraid of?
00:08:34What am I afraid of?
00:08:36The one who should be afraid is you.
00:08:46Zoe!
00:09:01Are you okay?
00:09:04I'm fine, Richard.
00:09:11Apologize.
00:09:13I can't believe it took me this long to see how blind you really are.
00:09:18Richard, don't be angry.
00:09:20She didn't mean it.
00:09:21Please, for my sake.
00:09:24The surveillance cameras are on.
00:09:26Why don't you check them before accusing me?
00:09:32Two chances left.
00:09:34Richard, I'm okay.
00:09:40Zoe's probably upset because I took her spot.
00:09:44It was just a slap.
00:09:46Don't start any drama over me.
00:09:48I can't just let this slide.
00:09:50She's already hit you once.
00:09:51Who 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.
00:10:00I'm leaving.
00:10:01Excuse me.
00:10:03Zoe!
00:10:05If you walk out those doors, you'll be demoted to a junior assistant.
00:10:09Do whatever you want.
00:10:18Zoe's acting so differently.
00:10:20What's going on with her?
00:10:21What?
00:10:34Is Zoe quitting?
00:10:35What?
00:10:35Is Zoe quitting?
00:10:35Maya, why didn't you tell me Zoe was resigning?
00:10:45Zoe told me not to let Mr. Harrington find out.
00:10:48How did he know?
00:10:50Mr. Harrington?
00:10:51There must be some mistake.
00:10:55Zoe?
00:10:56Resign?
00:10:57That's impossible.
00:10:59That's right.
00:11:00She'd never leave me.
00:11:01She loves me too much.
00:11:03Richard, please.
00:11:05Don't be so hard on Zoe.
00:11:07Will you come to my place tonight?
00:11:14I want to be with you.
00:11:16Whatever you want.
00:11:19You're so good to me.
00:11:22Spending the night at another woman's place while we're still married?
00:11:26Fine.
00:11:27Soon you'll be free to spend every night with her.
00:11:37Mom!
00:11:40Amy!
00:11:42Mom, tomorrow is our open house.
00:11:44Can Daddy come?
00:11:47Seven years of marriage and not once has you come to Amy's school.
00:11:51Why would tomorrow be any different?
00:11:58Amy, I-
00:11:59Mom, all my classmates say I don't even have a dad.
00:12:02Let Daddy come just once.
00:12:04Please?
00:12:06Okay.
00:12:07I'll text him.
00:12:11Amy's school has open house tomorrow.
00:12:13Any chance he could come?
00:12:19Mom, is Daddy too busy to come?
00:12:22I don't know, babe.
00:12:23Sorry.
00:12:24I get it.
00:12:25It's okay.
00:12:26Daddy's busy.
00:12:28I understand.
00:12:30Amy.
00:12:33Okay.
00:12:34I'll come.
00:12:35Amy, look.
00:12:36Daddy says I'll come.
00:12:37Yay!
00:12:37Daddy's finally coming to my school for me.
00:12:40Mommy, my teacher said I did really well at school this year, and I get to be class president
00:12:44this semester.
00:12:45Daddy knew.
00:12:46Maybe he'd start liking me, right?
00:12:50Please.
00:12:51Just don't break Amy's heart this time.
00:12:59Mom, Daddy's really here.
00:13:00Daddy.
00:13:01He really came.
00:13:02Let's go over to Daddy.
00:13:06Daddy!
00:13:06Daddy!
00:13:06Daddy!
00:13:06Daddy!
00:13:06What did you just call me?
00:13:07What did you just call me?
00:13:08What did you just call me?
00:13:17What did you just call me?
00:13:19Uncle Richard, you're sitting at the wrong desk.
00:13:23Mine's up front.
00:13:24It's the first time Dad actually kept his promise.
00:13:27I feel so happy.
00:13:29This is my seat.
00:13:33Out of the way!
00:13:35This is my dad.
00:13:37So that's it.
00:13:38He came, but not for Amy.
00:13:41He came for Evelyn's daughter.
00:13:43Oh, Lily didn't mean it.
00:13:46I'm sorry.
00:13:47Zoe, you're going to the open house too, right?
00:13:51So, where's her dad?
00:13:56My dad's overseas.
00:13:58It's busy.
00:13:59I didn't want to bother him.
00:14:02Uncle Richard, Mom and I are leaving now.
00:14:05Excuse us.
00:14:07Usually, Amy clings to me no matter what.
00:14:10But today she's pulling away on her own.
00:14:13What's gotten into her?
00:14:16Mom, first he brought that woman to the company and took your spot.
00:14:24And now, he shows up at school for some other kid.
00:14:27Dad only has one more chance left.
00:14:30What did I do to deserve this?
00:14:33Why does my daughter have to suffer?
00:14:35And there's nothing I can do to stop it.
00:14:38Welcome, parents.
00:14:40And thank you all for being here today.
00:14:43I'm sure you want to know how your kids are doing.
00:14:46So, let's dive right in.
00:14:49Amy, I heard you're doing really well in school, right?
00:14:53Quiet, please.
00:14:55I am thrilled to say that all of our pupils have been studying super hard this semester.
00:15:01However, there is one student who has gone above and beyond.
00:15:06And that is Amy Harrington.
00:15:10Congratulations, Amy.
00:15:11Amy, you have been elected as class president.
00:15:19Why did you get to be class president?
00:15:27Amy, would you like to come up here and say something to everyone?
00:15:30I'm sorry, ma'am.
00:15:36I don't really know what to say.
00:15:38Oh, Amy, you just need a little more confidence.
00:15:41But no worries.
00:15:43Let's carry on.
00:15:48Amy, don't worry.
00:15:51Mommy will always be with you.
00:15:53Be sad.
00:15:53Hey, what took you so long to get out today?
00:16:02You want to go home together today?
00:16:08By the way, Evelyn's daughter, Lily, she's a transfer student, right?
00:16:13So she never got the chance to run for class president.
00:16:18Amy, do you think maybe you could ask the teacher if she could have the title instead?
00:16:25Of course.
00:16:27Every gift comes with a price.
00:16:30Even this lollipop doesn't come for free.
00:16:35Okay, I'm going to church.
00:16:36Richard, help!
00:16:48Lily is sick.
00:16:49Can you come pick us up?
00:16:52Dad!
00:17:01Stay safe.
00:17:06This time, you didn't tell our daughter to call him uncle.
00:17:10But this would be the last time she'd ever call him dad.
00:17:29Richard, 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.
00:17:40Mom, let's get ready to board the plane.
00:17:43Okay, let's go.
00:17:46I wish you happiness.
00:17:48Again, if you are going to Chicago Midway, let's have a flight 8-8-2.
00:17:52You're delaying departure at 7-25.
00:17:54That flight will be departing.
00:17:56That's gate number 15.
00:17:57Gate number 15.
00:18:03Maya?
00:18:09Zoe, please, you've got to help me.
00:18:12What?
00:18:12What's going on?
00:18:13You remember the project with Mr. Lawrence?
00:18:16We're in the final stages, but now he's heard you're leaving and refuses to sign.
00:18:21If Mr. Harrington finds out about this, I'm finished.
00:18:24Fired.
00:18:25Please, I'm begging you.
00:18:28It's not fair to let someone else take the fall for the mess I left behind.
00:18:33Okay.
00:18:34I'll be back right away.
00:18:35Thank you, Zoe.
00:18:37Thank you so much.
00:18:43Amy?
00:18:44Mommy just has one last thing she has to take care of, okay?
00:18:48We'll leave by tomorrow.
00:18:49I promise.
00:18:49Once I wrap things up with Mr. Lawrence and seal the deal, I can finally leave for good.
00:19:09Evelyn?
00:19:10This is my seat.
00:19:12Please move.
00:19:12This desk is closest to Richard.
00:19:25I'm his personal assistant now, so naturally, it belongs to me.
00:19:29Sorry.
00:19:30If you want this seat so badly, you can ask Richard for it.
00:19:34But for now, it's mine.
00:19:35I hate to break it to you, Zoe, but Richard already gave me this spot.
00:19:42He said a junior assistant like you doesn't deserve to sit here.
00:19:48See?
00:19:50Your things are moved over there.
00:19:51You must be boiling with jealousy, aren't you?
00:20:03Look at you.
00:20:04Pathetic.
00:20:05Clinging to your ego, pretending you don't care.
00:20:09Tell 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?
00:20:17Drop the act.
00:20:23One tear for me, and Richard gives me whatever I want.
00:20:27Even your daughter's little president title.
00:20:30He handed that over to my Lily without a second thought.
00:20:34So, how did it feel Richard made your daughter hand over her title to mine?
00:20:41Do you think Richard will still fawn over you once he sees your true colors?
00:20:48Or do you think he'll be disgusted?
00:20:51Like, like he swallowed a fly?
00:20:53You bitch.
00:20:55I'm just saying this to put you in your place.
00:20:59Get the hell out of here with your little brat,
00:21:02and never show your face to Richard again.
00:21:04Or I'll make you wish you were never even born.
00:21:07Got it?
00:21:08Yeah.
00:21:12Yeah, I get it.
00:21:13And since you're so fond of leftovers,
00:21:15you can have mine.
00:21:17Keep him.
00:21:17You.
00:21:20Don't think I don't see right through you.
00:21:23You're still hoping Richard cares.
00:21:26Dream on.
00:21:27What do you have that compares to me?
00:21:29I don't give a damn.
00:21:30But here's a warning.
00:21:32What goes around, comes around.
00:21:33And one day you might get thrown out like trash.
00:21:36What's going on here?
00:21:48Evelyn.
00:21:52Richard, what are you doing here?
00:21:55When are you going to stop picking on Evelyn?
00:21:57Richard, you're mistaken about Zoe.
00:22:04We were just playing a little game.
00:22:07I 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.
00:22:16It's all my fault.
00:22:18Maybe I should have just never started working here in the first place.
00:22:22Stop blaming yourself for other people's mistakes.
00:22:27Zoe, do you have something to say?
00:22:29Nothing.
00:22:30Just that you're blind.
00:22:33How dare you talk to me?
00:22:35Have I been too kind that you've forgotten your place?
00:22:38Not to mention the audacity of you to hang up on me this morning.
00:22:41Is that how a personal assistant does her job?
00:22:43If it weren't for Evelyn, I would have, cleaning up your mess,
00:22:45I would have lost billions.
00:22:47From now on, you're demoted.
00:22:49Back to being an entry-level employee.
00:22:55So, he probably didn't see my message.
00:22:58He must have been busy at work this morning.
00:23:00Richard, Zoe's really good at her job.
00:23:03How can you demote her over something so trivial?
00:23:07Show her mercy and let her stay?
00:23:09No matter how good she is at her job,
00:23:11it won't make up for her vile character.
00:23:14But still...
00:23:17If Zoe gets demoted,
00:23:19I can't help but feel guilty.
00:23:21Don't.
00:23:22If it weren't for you,
00:23:24I would have never seen how truly evil she is.
00:23:27But still...
00:23:28Evelyn,
00:23:29you're always putting everybody else first.
00:23:32Try thinking of yourself for once.
00:23:37What are you waiting for?
00:23:39Apologize to her.
00:23:40Now!
00:23:40Now!
00:23:41Don't you ever get tired of this little act?
00:23:48I know I'm sick of it.
00:23:50Zoe,
00:23:51I know you're angry.
00:23:53Go ahead.
00:23:54Take it out on me.
00:23:56I won't blame you.
00:23:58As long as I'm here,
00:24:00you don't have to bother anyone.
00:24:01But,
00:24:02she's Zoe,
00:24:04your assistant.
00:24:05Even if she hits me or curses at me,
00:24:10I won't say a word.
00:24:12Richard,
00:24:13let's pretend this never happened.
00:24:16Show her mercy
00:24:17and let her stay.
00:24:18I already showed her mercy
00:24:23when I allowed her to keep her job.
00:24:27Spare me.
00:24:28I quit.
00:24:30She can take my place.
00:24:33Zoe,
00:24:34you've been here so long.
00:24:36How can you just up and leave like that?
00:24:38If you're really mad at me,
00:24:40go ahead and hit me.
00:24:42She wouldn't dare.
00:24:48She actually hit me?
00:24:51Zoe,
00:24:52are you crazy?
00:24:53How dare you hit her in front of me?
00:25:00Those two slaps
00:25:01were for my daughter.
00:25:03You crushed her pride
00:25:05at the open house.
00:25:07Even forcing her to give up
00:25:08her class president title
00:25:09to your daughter.
00:25:11You brought this on yourself.
00:25:16Zoe!
00:25:18And that slap?
00:25:24That was for myself.
00:25:26You knew he was a married man
00:25:27and you still went after him.
00:25:29Nothing disgusts me more
00:25:31than a homewrecker.
00:25:32Like you.
00:25:35How can you say that about me?
00:25:37Well, because it's true.
00:25:38You know better than anyone
00:25:39that he was married.
00:25:40And you still invited him
00:25:42over to your place.
00:25:43And you let him sneak
00:25:44into your bed at night.
00:25:46Evelyn,
00:25:46do you not know what shame is?
00:25:48It's not true.
00:25:50Richard and I,
00:25:51there's nothing between us.
00:25:53Zoe,
00:25:53I know you hate me.
00:25:55Fine.
00:25:56I'll leave.
00:25:57From now on,
00:25:58I'll just drop the act.
00:26:00Okay?
00:26:01If you want my left over so badly,
00:26:04take him.
00:26:06Be my guest.
00:26:08Just take the trash and keep it.
00:26:12Trash?
00:26:14What trash?
00:26:15Richard,
00:26:17I think there's a misunderstanding
00:26:18between me and Zoe.
00:26:20She barged in out of nowhere,
00:26:23called me a homewrecker,
00:26:24and then,
00:26:25believe it or not,
00:26:28she said I could keep the trash.
00:26:30And by that,
00:26:31she meant,
00:26:32she meant you.
00:26:34Zoe,
00:26:35have I been far too easy on you?
00:26:38Yeah.
00:26:39That's exactly what I thought.
00:26:41That I've been way too easy on you
00:26:43these last seven years.
00:26:44Seven years.
00:26:55Seven wasted years,
00:26:57Richard,
00:26:58running deals,
00:26:59breaking my back
00:27:00for your company,
00:27:01and for what?
00:27:02Zoe,
00:27:03hit me if you want,
00:27:05but please don't hurt Richard.
00:27:07What,
00:27:07do you think landing a few big deals
00:27:09makes you untouchable?
00:27:10That it gives you the right
00:27:11to act this cocky
00:27:12and be that disrespectful
00:27:13Richard,
00:27:15please.
00:27:16It's my fault
00:27:17she ended up this way.
00:27:18Don't be angry with her.
00:27:20People like her
00:27:21only learn their lessons
00:27:22when you put them in that place.
00:27:26You two make me sick.
00:27:30Those two slaps
00:27:32were totally worth it.
00:27:34Finally,
00:27:34I've pushed you out.
00:27:36Zoe,
00:27:37always so high and mighty.
00:27:40Turns out,
00:27:41you ran straight into
00:27:42a brick wall.
00:27:43Served you right.
00:27:51Call the project team.
00:27:53Zoe has to go over
00:27:54every point of data
00:27:55by herself.
00:27:57And if she doesn't finish
00:27:58by tonight,
00:27:59then she's out of the company.
00:28:01Mr. Harrington,
00:28:02this project's way too complex
00:28:04and the database is massive.
00:28:07There's no way
00:28:08Zoe can finish it all tonight.
00:28:09Then make her work
00:28:10through the entire night.
00:28:12She's been slacking off
00:28:13and off as it is already.
00:28:23It's getting late.
00:28:25Zoe's probably still
00:28:26buried in work
00:28:28learning her
00:28:30lesson.
00:28:30Mr. Harrington?
00:28:34Mr. Harrington?
00:28:35Your coffee, sir?
00:28:38Is Zoe still working?
00:28:40She learned her lesson.
00:28:41Well,
00:28:42actually,
00:28:43she didn't come back here
00:28:44after this afternoon.
00:28:46What did you just say?
00:28:47She
00:28:48didn't return.
00:28:50Do you want me
00:28:50to go look for her?
00:28:51Don't bother.
00:28:56Zoe,
00:28:57playing games with me, huh?
00:28:59Fine.
00:29:00Let's see how long
00:29:01you can keep up the act.
00:29:06Ready, Amy?
00:29:07Let's go.
00:29:09I'm ready, Mom.
00:29:10From now on,
00:29:11things are gonna get better
00:29:12for us.
00:29:12Right?
00:29:14I promise.
00:29:15I promise.
00:29:15I promise.
00:29:21Call Zoe.
00:29:48Tell her to bring me
00:29:49in a cup of coffee.
00:29:51But
00:29:53Zoe hasn't shown up
00:29:55for work today either.
00:30:00Zoe's getting colder
00:30:01every day.
00:30:02I have to show her
00:30:03who's the boss.
00:30:04Richard?
00:30:06Come in.
00:30:10Your coffee
00:30:11exactly the way
00:30:12you like it.
00:30:13Why are you
00:30:14the one bringing me in?
00:30:19Why are you
00:30:21the one bringing
00:30:22the team?
00:30:23Richard,
00:30:24what's wrong?
00:30:25I'm your personal
00:30:26assistant now.
00:30:27Of course,
00:30:28I'm the one
00:30:28bringing you coffee.
00:30:30Put it down
00:30:31and leave.
00:30:36Richard,
00:30:37I found this
00:30:38amazing new restaurant.
00:30:41Tonight,
00:30:41we should take Lily
00:30:42and check it out together.
00:30:43I'm busy.
00:30:45But
00:30:46Lily's really excited
00:30:48to get dinner with us.
00:30:49Richard.
00:30:53Richard,
00:30:53are you feeling well?
00:30:54Should we go to the hospital?
00:31:00Richard,
00:31:01I'm done staying up
00:31:03all night
00:31:03waiting for you.
00:31:05Next time you come home,
00:31:06the night lamp
00:31:07won't be on for you.
00:31:08I wish you happiness.
00:31:10Richard,
00:31:19what's the matter?
00:31:20Trouble at work?
00:31:24Zoe,
00:31:25what's this supposed to mean?
00:31:27Are you out of your mind?
00:31:28Who do you think you are
00:31:29saying something like that?
00:31:31your call is being transferred.
00:31:42Please leave your message
00:31:43after the tone.
00:31:45But now,
00:31:46Zoe's been gone for just
00:31:47one day
00:31:48and he's already losing it.
00:31:50your call is being transferred.
00:31:56Richard,
00:31:57don't do that.
00:31:58I'm scared.
00:31:59Mind your own business.
00:32:01I'm leaving.
00:32:05Zoe,
00:32:06I can't have a single
00:32:07moment of peace
00:32:08while you're still alive.
00:32:16Damn it!
00:32:16I know
00:32:22that you're just
00:32:23jealous.
00:32:24Zoe,
00:32:25but throwing
00:32:25a temper tantrum?
00:32:31Fine.
00:32:33Fine.
00:32:35I'll make it up to you.
00:32:43I need you to pick up
00:32:44a cake and flowers
00:32:45for me now.
00:32:46Zoe!
00:32:56Zoe!
00:32:57I'm home!
00:33:01Are you happy now?
00:33:09Enough playing games, Zoe.
00:33:12Come down here now
00:33:13or I'm done playing nice.
00:33:15Zoe!
00:33:24Zoe!
00:33:25Zoe!
00:33:26My patience is wearing thin!
00:33:28Jerry Lee is going back.
00:33:39Jerry Lee is going back.
00:33:39Jerry Lee is going back.
00:33:41He's going back.
00:33:53He's going back.
00:33:55Give me a bacterial wing.
00:33:57He's going back.
00:33:58He's going back.
00:33:59Come back.
00:34:00I've hardly ever been there for Amy, let alone playing with her.
00:34:30I've hardly ever been there for you.
00:35:00I've hardly ever been there for you.
00:35:10Zoe, I'll give you ten minutes.
00:35:13Call me back, or we're getting a divorce.
00:35:19So, he still hasn't realized Amy and I have already left the country.
00:35:32Well, well, well.
00:35:37You said me.
00:35:39I thought you had some backbone.
00:35:42But here you are, crawling back to me already.
00:35:46So, 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.
00:35:57Pathetic.
00:35:58Richard, it's me.
00:36:05Why are you calling so late?
00:36:08What's wrong?
00:36:09I had a nightmare.
00:36:11I'm scared.
00:36:12Could you come keep me company?
00:36:14If you're scared, go find your daughter.
00:36:17Let Evelyn keep you company.
00:36:19But, Lily's too young.
00:36:22I just, I want you here.
00:36:24Please?
00:36:25I'm busy.
00:36:26Find somebody else.
00:36:27You're the only one I know.
00:36:29Fine.
00:36:30Zoe, you're the one who's pushing me away.
00:36:33You brought this on yourself.
00:36:38Alright.
00:36:39I'm coming.
00:36:41I'll be waiting.
00:36:50Zoe, let's see how you compete with me.
00:37:03Hey, kiddo.
00:37:04Are you tired?
00:37:05Do you want to take a nap?
00:37:06No, not yet.
00:37:07Yeah, me neither.
00:37:08How about we get a little sweet treat before dinner?
00:37:09Great.
00:37:10Okay.
00:37:11Zoe, what's that supposed to mean?
00:37:12Are you out of your mind?
00:37:13Who do you think you are saying something like that?
00:37:14Zoe, I'll give you ten minutes, call me.
00:37:15I'll give you ten minutes, call me.
00:37:16I'll give you ten minutes, call me.
00:37:17I'll give you ten minutes, call me.
00:37:18I'll give you ten minutes, call me.
00:37:19I'll give you retour.
00:37:20No.
00:37:21Neue.
00:37:24Zoe, what's that supposed to mean?
00:37:26Are you out of your mind?
00:37:27Who 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.
00:37:36Ignoring my texts won't do you any good.
00:37:38Richard's coming over to see me now.
00:37:41Jealous much?
00:37:43If I were you, I'd disagree with you,
00:37:48you, I disappear for good instead of playing hard to get just to make him chase you. I'm his first
00:37:55and only love. As long as I'm here, you don't stand a chance. So just give it up.
00:38:10Okay, so what are we ordering? Can we get brownies? Yes, of course we can get brownies.
00:38:15Okay, which one do you want?
00:38:18I have to keep making a fuss over the silly open-house stuff. I'm so off of this.
00:38:36Dad!
00:38:39Stay 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, so I rushed over to check. Turns out she was just hungry and whining for fried chicken.
00:39:02Easy. Lily, take it slow.
00:39:08Richard, I'm sorry. You were meant to go home with Zoe and Amy and here you are with me and Lily. Don't worry. I'll apologize to her tomorrow.
00:39:18No need. I'm happy to help. Richard, you're my lifesaver. If I took Amy out for fried chicken even just once, she'd be over the moon.
00:39:34Richard?
00:39:40Come in.
00:39:48Zoe's got a way better figure than her and yet she'd never wear something so revealing.
00:39:52The clients are all here. Shareholders too. Let's go to the meeting.
00:40:04Let's go.
00:40:06Oh 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.
00:40:21What's wrong?
00:40:24Uh, nothing. I just didn't get any sleep last night.
00:40:29Well, make sure you try to get to bed early tonight then.
00:40:32I will.
00:40:36Richard. Long time no see.
00:40:41Mr. Anderson. Pleasure's always. Please.
00:40:48I'm really looking forward to our collaboration. The 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. Over the years, Zoe's always been top notch. If she weren't your assistant, I'd have snatched her up myself.
00:41:15Mr. Anderson, if you don't mind, let's cut to the chase now.
00:41:20Let's sign the contract.
00:41:22Let's sign the contract.
00:41:23Of course.
00:41:29Richard, what the hell is this?
00:41:38Lily actually scribbled all over the contract? I'm so dead. I should have checked before handing it to Richard.
00:41:45Who drew this off? Do you have any idea what you've just done? Get me Zoe now.
00:41:54Zoe, she...
00:41:55Mr. Harrington, if this is how your company does business, then I don't see any reason to continue with this deal.
00:42:01I trusted Hamilton so much. And this is how she repays me?
00:42:08I'm sorry, Richard. I...
00:42:10Who are you to barge in here like this? I'm speaking to Mr. Harrington right now.
00:42:14Mr. Anderson, this is entirely my fault. I'll have a revised contract drawn up for you right away.
00:42:19And 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.
00:42:31I see you've really outdone yourself with this extraordinary assistant, Mr. Harrington.
00:42:42I see you've really outdone yourself with this extraordinary assistant, Mr. Harrington.
00:42:48I don't get it. What was Mr. Harrington thinking? Letting go of assistant Zoe just to keep the useless eye candy around?
00:42:55Ugh. It'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. There's no reason for us to continue this partnership.
00:43:10Mr. Anderson, this is all just one big, um...
00:43:13Misunderstanding.
00:43:14Misunderstanding? Come on.
00:43:16This just shows you were never serious about working with me.
00:43:19You didn't have to tarnish my name just to reject a deal.
00:43:23Drawing a picture over my name of a pig just to insult me? Is this how you treat your partners?
00:43:30We will never work together again.
00:43:33What are we gonna do now?
00:43:35Mr. Anderson is our biggest client. If we lose this partnership, we will lose billions.
00:43:40Richard, I'm sorry. I had no idea something like this could happen. What do I do?
00:43:47What do I do?
00:43:48That's why I do not have to do this-
00:43:49I won't.
00:43:50That's why I do not be responsible for every night time.
00:43:51I have to do this.
00:43:52I will never have to do this.
00:43:54If Zoe would never look at me like that, she's proud.
00:43:57Relentless, always pushing for perfection.
00:44:01No matter how tough the job she's never faltered.
00:44:03I'm like Evelyn, 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.
00:44:14She's sharp, capable, and Amy, she's a good kid.
00:44:18She'd never mess up my documents.
00:44:20Bring me Zoe.
00:44:22Where the hell is Zoe?
00:44:24Richard, please!
00:44:25Just leave.
00:44:28And from now on, stay out of company business.
00:44:32Richard, help me!
00:44:33Get out!
00:44:43Get ready for dinner tonight, you and me.
00:44:46And make sure to bring it in.
00:44:52I'm not going off too harsh.
00:44:54Zoe, let's take Amy out for fried chicken tonight.
00:45:02Just the three of us.
00:45:04Richard!
00:45:05Richard, you need to sign these.
00:45:17Just put them down and leave.
00:45:21Please, don't be upset.
00:45:22What happened today is entirely my fault.
00:45:26I'll make sure Lily behaves next time, I promise.
00:45:28No more trouble.
00:45:29Call me Mr. Harrington during work hours.
00:45:31I know I put you in as my personal assistant, but there still needs to be boundaries.
00:45:34Boundaries?
00:45:35Boundaries?
00:45:36Everyone knows I was his first and only true love.
00:45:39He completely doted on me.
00:45:40Even after he married Zoe, it was never out in the open.
00:45:41And now, he's talking about boundaries?
00:45:43Richard.
00:45:45Richard.
00:45:46Richard...
00:45:47Don't you like me anymore?
00:45:51Why are you acting like this now?
00:45:53estiver...

00:49:57Yeah, high five!
00:49:59Woo!
00:50:01Come here!
00:50:11Mom, 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.
00:50:25I'm going to give her back every bit of happiness he took away.
00:50:29Is it good?
00:50:30Yeah, really good.
00:50:31Cheers.
00:50:32Woo!
00:50:55Mr. Henson!
00:50:56Bad news!
00:50:57What is it?
00:50:58Spit it out!
00:50:59The project's always been handling.
00:51:00The client pulled out.
00:51:01They're canceling the deal.
00:51:02The whole thing's stuck.
00:51:03Then go find Zoe and have her handle it.
00:51:26They're cancelling the deal.
00:51:27The whole thing's stuck.
00:51:29Then 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.
00:51:45Call Zoe and have her come directly to my office.
00:51:48I want her to handle this personally.
00:51:52But, Mr. Harrington, Zoe's already resigned.
00:51:56We haven't been able to reach her since.
00:52:01Resigned?
00:52:03Who approved this, and why wasn't I informed?
00:52:07She said her husband works abroad.
00:52:11She's taken her daughter, Amy, to go join him.
00:52:13She put in her resignation.
00:52:15Why was I kept in the dark about something this important?
00:52:18Because you already demoted her to an entry-level position.
00:52:21By 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?
00:52:30Excuse me, sir.
00:52:37School's out.
00:52:38The kids have left already.
00:52:40Um, may I ask who you are?
00:52:43I'm here for Amy.
00:52:44Has she been 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,
00:52:53and then went on to pretend he was someone else's father at Open House.
00:52:58Fuck, Amy, she's...
00:53:00Amy is one of the kindest and brightest kids I have ever taught.
00:53:05Everyone adores her.
00:53:06But, um, since Open House, rumors have been spreading like wildfire.
00:53:12And Amy's been suffering a lot.
00:53:15What rumors?
00:53:16Look, that's all nonsense.
00:53:17I have nothing to do with Lily's mother.
00:53:21Lily is not my daughter.
00:53:22Why are you telling me this now?
00:53:25Amy's already withdrawn from school.
00:53:27And left with her mother.
00:53:29When?
00:53:30The 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?
00:53:55Look, if you really want to help your wife and kid, go find them.
00:54:02Here's their new address.
00:54:03So, 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.
00:54:49You happy?
00:54:50Can we go home now?
00:54:52Home?
00:54:52This is my home.
00:54:56Now please leave.
00:54:59Richard.
00:55:00Richard, 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 ass.
00:55:07All right?
00:55:07We've been together for seven years.
00:55:11So I'll cut you some slack.
00:55:12Come home now.
00:55:14And I'll pretend none of this ever happened.
00:55:19Zoe!
00:55:20Are you out of your mind?
00:55:21My mind's never been clear.
00:55:24I am done wasting my life on a cocky jerk like you.
00:55:29Let'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.
00:55:47All right.
00:55:48I get that you're jealous.
00:55:50Come home with me.
00:55:52And I promise I'll never see her again.
00:56:01Here.
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.
00:56:31Not now.
00:56:33Not ever.
00:56:34So.
00:56:36Oh.
00:56:37So now you can't let me go?
00:56:40What?
00:56:41Are you in love with me?
00:56:43Shut up.
00:56:43Oh.
00:56:45God.
00:56:46Roger.
00:56:46You really are in love with me.
00:56:49So it's true then.
00:56:56You do have feelings for me.
00:57:02Don'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.
00:57:15I give you everything.
00:57:18But I'm not your pet.
00:57:21Richard.
00:57:22You took my love and you trampled all over it.
00:57:26And what?
00:57:27You think after everything that you've done.
00:57:30That just saying I love you would ever pull me back.
00:57:32And 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.
00:57:50If you won't come back for me.
00:57:54Then what about for our daughter?
00:57:57You really think that she's going to want to call you father after all of this?
00:58:01That doesn't matter.
00:58:04You're never going to have custody of her.
00:58:08If you leave now.
00:58:11You'll never see her again.
00:58:13Didn't really think that through now did you?
00:58:20You disgust me.
00:58:22You 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.
00:58:33And I will get the best lawyer in the entire world.
00:58:38To make sure that you can never run off with her again.
00:58:43You bastard!
00:58:44Come on with me, Zoe.
00:58:51I'll treat you right.
00:58:53We can be a family again.
00:58:55I 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?
00:59:03Do you?
00:59:05Please don't touch my mom and uncle Richard.
00:59:07What did you just call me, Amy?
00:59:13Amy, I'm your dad.
00:59:16Mom, don't worry about me.
00:59:19Don't come back with Uncle Richard.
00:59:20I can take care of myself.
00:59:37Bye.
00:59:39I'll come back with you.
00:59:41That's about it.
00:59:42This time, I'll make it right.
00:59:44I promise.
00:59:53Amy, no matter what happens, I'll always be here for you.
00:59:59It's been two weeks since I came back.
01:00:18He hasn't called Evelyn once, and he even fired her.
01:00:26Honey?
01:00:29I'm home.
01:00:31Is it for you?
01:00:34It's too late, Richard.
01:00:36Stop wasting your time.
01:00:42You don't like these?
01:00:46Fine.
01:00:48What about these?
01:00:50Not 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.
01:01:02You don't like existing in your house.
01:01:20Didn't I tell you to stop calling me?
01:01:22Richard, Evelyn tried to commit suicide.
01:01:24She cut her wrist because you won't come to see her.
01:01:27Come over to the hospital, please.
01:01:31All right, I'm coming.
01:01:36Zoe, 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.
01:01:49At the end of the day, it's me he loves the most.
01:01:57Richard, you're here.
01:02:03I'm sorry.
01:02:05I didn't mean to take my own life.
01:02:07I just, I miss you so much.
01:02:13Thank God you came.
01:02:15I knew, I knew you still cared.
01:02:17Look, I'm here to give you one final warning.
01:02:20Either you stop pestering me or I'll have you sent over sex.
01:02:25Richard, you used to love me so much, remember?
01:02:28Didn't you even risk your own life to save me once?
01:02:32Love you?
01:02:34The woman I love was kind, not a venomous snake like you are now.
01:02:41What are you trying to say?
01:02:43It's me.
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?
01:02:58Do 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.
01:03:05I know you.
01:03:06Did you?
01:03:11You make me sick.
01:03:28Zoe!
01:03:29You bitch!
01:03:31I'll make you pay.
01:03:35Go to hell.
01:03:37If I can't have Richard, no one can.
01:03:40So Amy, how was your day at school?
