00:00You're already here waiting for me?
00:08Kate.
00:09Oh my god, what a surprise!
00:12Did my parents invite you?
00:14Shameless!
00:15You've been abroad for four years and the first thing you do is to come back here and snatch my man?
00:21Your future brother-in-law?
00:25Your man?
00:27Yes. Your sister and Ethan are engaged.
00:30What? When?
00:33About a month ago. You were not invited.
00:36Because of what you were telling everybody behind our backs, Ethan told us everything.
00:42Your name has been removed from the family trust.
00:47You have lost your rights to inherit Cox Architects. You may leave.
00:53What? Dad, what the fuck, Ethan?
01:02I told you that Ethan jerk was full of shit.
01:05Do you know what exactly he's told you, parents?
01:08No, I don't. And anyone who knows what really happened is not answering my calls.
01:14That's okay. Stay with me tonight. Let's get you some rest and we'll figure it out tomorrow.
01:25Do you...
01:27Do you wanna have fun and get back at Ethan a little?
01:31Like, fuck his hot uncle?
01:37What are you talking about?
01:40Look, that's Ethan's uncle.
01:46Oh my god. I mean, I'm not really in the mood, but he looks...
01:52Yummy.
01:53Wait, how do you know he's Ethan's uncle?
01:56I mean, I was with him all throughout high school and I've never met this uncle.
02:01Not many have.
02:02He was in charge of the European division in Brussels. He just came back.
02:07My brother met him at a cocktail party last week. Showed me a picture.
02:11Completely gorgeous.
02:14My brother says he's very masterful.
02:16Even Ethan's father is at his mercy.
02:20Oh.
02:21So he's powerful in his family.
02:23Mhm.
02:26Alright.
02:34Excuse me, sir. Do you happen to know the time?
02:38Um...
02:39It's the time of our first encounter and the beginning of our happiness.
02:42What are you doing?
02:43I'm about to become Ethan's auntie.
02:54What are you doing?
02:55I told you.
02:57I'm starting the beginning of the rest of our life.
02:59Okay.
03:00I'm not some sort of doctor. I can't give you treatment.
03:04What?
03:06You are insane, aren't you?
03:08Well, I am actually ill, but I'm not insane.
03:12Just...
03:14Lovesick.
03:15Okay.
03:16I got lovesick the minute I saw you over here.
03:19They say that when you meet the love of your life, you feel really happy.
03:23And...
03:24That's exactly how I feel right now.
03:26Okay.
03:27I've heard enough. You can go on your way now.
03:29Pretty boy.
03:31Why don't you give me your number?
03:33Why don't you tell me your name?
03:36You look so irresistible with your eyes like that.
03:39What the hell do you want with me?
03:41I want to marry you.
03:43And...
03:45If I didn't actually want to marry you, then everything I've just said would make me a total scumbag.
03:50But...
03:51I'm actually a catch.
03:52I graduated college.
03:55I'm 22.
03:57And...
03:58I make my own money.
04:00I would be a good wife.
04:02And...
04:03I'm really healthy and I have good habits.
04:05And...
04:07Above all...
04:08I'm not a selfish lover.
04:10And...
04:11I swear to you now that I'll treat you well and...
04:14Shut up.
04:17Meet me tomorrow at the city hall.
04:19Bring your identification at 10am.
04:32Wait, what are you doing?
04:33This is my house!
04:37There you are.
04:38There you are.
04:41How you doing?
04:44I'm sorry, Kate.
04:46But...
04:47Rebecca has more equity.
04:49I have to marry a rich heiress so I can inherit my father's company.
04:53You know, he always thinks that bastard of his is more capable than me.
04:57And now with my uncle in town, he's being extra stressed and pushy.
05:02Does Rebecca know this?
05:03No, Kate.
05:05Rebecca and I are just temporary.
05:06My heart is all yours.
05:10Once I have my father's company and Rebecca's shares, we can be together again.
05:16We can have everything.
05:18Like death on the Nile?
05:20Well, it's not like we're gonna kill her.
05:23You drove a wedge between me and my family.
05:26Well, I'm not proud of it.
05:29But I had to make sure Rebecca got the most shares.
05:33Okay, good to know. You can fuck off then.
05:36Kate, don't be like this.
05:38You know, I always knew you were a bit of a mercenary, but I never took you for a coward.
05:42You're a coward.
05:52What time is it?
05:54Like 9.40.
05:59Wait, what are you doing?
06:00I'm going to get married.
06:10Oh, you're already here.
06:13Unlike you, I'm punctual.
06:15Good looking couple. Hey, congratulations on your marriage.
06:18You are gonna have the prettiest kids.
06:19We are not having children.
06:34Could you two get closer together and look sweeter?
06:37Sir, could you please smile?
06:39My husband has nerve damage which causes facial paralysis.
06:43So, just let him be.
06:49Congratulations to both of you.
06:57You're now officially married.
07:03Your last name is Lyons?
07:08Your last name is Lyons?
07:12Yes, I decided to take my mother's maiden name.
07:19Here's my number.
07:20I'm busy today, so I'm leaving now.
07:22Wait.
07:23Yeah.
07:24We're married now.
07:25Don't you think we should live together?
07:26I don't like living with other people.
07:28I'm not other people.
07:29I'm your wife.
07:31And my family despises me now.
07:33I have nowhere to stay.
07:34Then find a place to rent and I'll pay for it.
07:36Lovey, please don't leave me.
07:39I have no one now.
07:40Only you.
07:42Fine, I'll send you the address.
07:44But you're staying in the guest bedroom.
07:46My bedroom, off limits.
07:47Alright.
07:56Didn't I say to keep a low profile this time?
08:02This is already our cheapest car, sir.
08:04Does anyone in the city know my real identity?
08:07Does anyone in the city know my real identity?
08:10Nope.
08:11We made sure no one does.
08:13I checked her background.
08:14She's clean.
08:15Yeah.
08:18So it is.
08:19Just a coincidence.
08:21So, I have a meeting tomorrow with several investors.
08:27I've been in contact with them before college and they said they really like my work.
08:32So, I'm hoping I can pitch my dream to them and this would be the first step to me getting my own architectural firm.
08:38Good luck.
08:39I know you can pull everything off.
08:42And, hey, congratulations on becoming the missus to a very sexy man and Auntie Kate to Ethan.
08:50Should we tell Ethan and Rebecca? Embarrass them a little?
08:54Oh, save it.
08:56I'm not even his real missus.
08:58He doesn't even let me in his room.
08:59What are you planning to do?
09:02Well, I'm gonna make it impossible for him to resist me.
09:05Mia?
09:06Who's Mia?
09:07He has a daughter?!
09:08Please let me in, Mia's back.
09:09Mia's back?
09:10Who is this?
09:11It's John, your dog walker.
09:12Who lives in the South?
09:13.
09:14Mia?
09:15Who's Mia?
09:16He has a daughter?!
09:20Please let me in, Mia's back.
09:24Mia's back?
09:25Who is this?
09:27It's John, your dog walker, whoever lives in the South.
09:33Mia is a daughter, who lives in the South, darling.
09:38Then we learn something about bientôt.
09:39lives in the South. Mia's a dog? Yes, Mia's the dog. Who are you? Burglar? Mia's a dog?
09:50Oh, oh.
10:01Yes? Hubby, this is Katie. I'm at work. I don't have time to talk. What's up? Hubby, will you be home for dinner?
10:08No, and do not call me that. Um, can I call you Daddy then?
10:13Absolutely not. Fine, I'll call you Shawnee. Shawnee and Katie sitting in a tree. K-I-S.
10:20Stop. Okay, just come home early. Me and I will be waiting, and I have a surprise for you.
10:26Mm-hmm. Yeah.
10:38Shawnee, you're home. I let you move in. I didn't let you turn my house into this.
10:54Isn't it nice? Your place was so dreary. It didn't feel like a home. I even cut my hand while moving decorations.
11:01Well, it looks like you had it coming. You put something on, it gets cold at night.
11:18Shawnee, you're up!
11:20Yeah.
11:21I made some pancakes and cinnamon buns. You want some?
11:24Uh, no. I don't really like sweet stuff for breakfast.
11:29You sure? You don't want to try a little bit?
11:32No.
11:34But, it's so delicious.
11:42Yeah, sure. I'll take a bite if it's so delicious.
11:46Yeah.
11:49Oh! You didn't seize the moment. Maybe tomorrow.
12:01Oh, Shawnee! Could you give me a lift?
12:05Only if you stop calling me back.
12:07I could stop for today.
12:08Where are you going?
12:10Building my career.
12:13Address. I need an address.
12:14Oh, sorry. Archie Square, please.
12:18Get in.
12:32Thank you, Shawnee. I'll see you later tonight.
12:35Sorry. I guess love habits die hard.
12:44I need to know what she's planning to do, and who she's dealing with.
12:57Yes?
12:58Shawnee, it's Mia. I'm so sorry.
13:01Where are you?
13:02What? Where are you?
13:03What? Where are you?
13:11Shawnee.
13:12Where's Mia?
13:13They brought her inside. They told me to wait out here.
13:14And you gave her the supplements instead of the dog food? How could that happen, Kate?
13:17I...
13:18I... I...
13:19No, no, no. Stop, stop. I need honestly and clearly what happened from the very beginning.
13:22Fine. I was at work. I came home.
13:24Yeah.
13:25I was exhausted. The investors were really hard on me.
13:28And I went to feed her.
13:30I wasn't paying attention. I got distracted.
13:32And then I went to take a shower.
13:33When I came outside, she was just laying down, throwing up.
13:37And, Shawnee, I'm really sorry. I didn't mean to hurt her.
13:39I can't believe I let you in my house. And for you to take care of Mia?
13:42Shawnee, I... I care about Mia, and I'll do anything to make-
13:46No! It's too late! You need to move out!!
13:50Shawnee, please!
13:51No.
13:52Hi.
13:55How's she doing?
13:56Your dog is two weeks pregnant.
13:58What?
13:59You don't look pleased by the news.
14:01Should I do something?
14:03No. Um, is a dog's pregnancy the same as a human's? Is that why she's throwing up?
14:08Sometimes, yes. It depends on each dog's condition.
14:11Some people who don't know better will think their dog is having digestive problems.
14:14So I didn't kill her?
14:15Oh, no. The nutrients are harmless.
14:19All right. Um, thank you.
14:21Uh, what should we do to keep Mia comfortable while she's pregnant?
14:25Nothing too special, but it would be best if someone can spend time looking after her and cooking for her.
14:30Okay. Well, um...
14:34You did say that you would do anything to make up for it.
14:37Uh, would you take care of Mia?
14:42Really? Does that mean I don't have to move out?
14:46Yes.
14:54I'm sorry, missus. Your names have been banned from our guest list.
14:57What? By whom?
14:59Let me check.
15:02It was by a shareholder on the board called Rebecca Cox.
15:04Oh, my God. I guess my family must have invested in a group that owns this bar.
15:09Let's just go.
15:10No, we're not going anywhere.
15:12Listen, you better let us in, dude.
15:15If I make a call, my brother can buy both of your asses right now.
15:18Maybe specifically.
15:19No, do not touch me.
15:20What's your name?
15:21Hey, hey, let her go!
15:23Hey, hey, let her go!
15:24How dare you grab a woman like that?
15:26I'm sorry, Mr. Lyons.
15:28I did my job by calling to the rules.
15:29According to the rules, what looks like your buddy here is on a power trip and has zero regard for hospitality.
15:34And if you're letting that happen, you shouldn't be the manager.
15:37I'm sorry, Mr. Lyons.
15:38I just don't understand why you're backing up this nobody girl.
15:41Nobody.
15:42I'm the husband of this nobody girl.
15:44What?
15:45Mr. Harrison, you must help me out.
15:47I really don't know these two ladies here.
15:49I believe you can surely understand me.
15:50I don't know much about the lady in pink, but I've heard about Kitty Cox.
15:55I heard Miss Cox stands out among the pool of the rich young ladies in this city with her gorgeous appearance and ability.
16:01She got into an elite university in the States at 16, and she's created an extraordinary, extraordinary professional portfolio before graduation.
16:11She's not the same as you social butterflies who only like parties and banquets.
16:17Thank you so much for hyping me up, Mr.
16:19Harrison.
16:21Chase.
16:21Harrison.
16:22You can call me Chase.
16:23I'm a little Shawnee's friend.
16:25I overheard you calling him that once.
16:26How sweet.
16:28Let me tell you, don't be mistaken by his poker face.
16:32It's actually very much a...
16:33All right, cut it out.
16:34Let's go.
16:39Whoa, whoa, whoa.
16:40Are you okay?
16:41Yeah.
16:42You've been this close to you, Shawnee.
16:45Your embrace is so warm.
16:47What are you doing?
16:47Well, you're awkward and I just erase the coldness from your face.
16:53It's actually kind of cute.
16:57Go ahead.
16:58Hello?
17:05Kate, it's Joan.
17:07Remember you have asked about the investment?
17:09I have incredible news for you.
17:10What is it, Joan?
17:11Tell me.
17:11There is a mysterious investor who's absolutely enamored with your architectural design.
17:17They want to invest in you, Kate, to help you start your own architectural firm.
17:20Are you serious, Joan?
17:23This is a dream come true.
17:25You know how much I've wanted to start my own firm.
17:27I knew I'd be thrilled, so I'm calling them as soon as I can firm with them.
17:32So, who is this investor?
17:35I'd love to have their contacts so I can say thanks.
17:38Oh yeah, Kate.
17:39The investor doesn't want to meet you just yet.
17:41They believe the right moment will come when it's meant to be.
17:44Why wouldn't they want to meet me?
17:47I would love the chance to express my gratitude and show them my vision directly.
17:51Kate, the investor insisted that there's no rush.
17:54They have complete faith in your talents and want to see your success unfold naturally.
17:58Patience, my friend.
18:02Hmm.
18:43You know a good night's sleep makes a good worker.
18:47The deadline arrives soon.
18:49Deadline?
18:50You know you're all your own boss, right?
18:52Exactly.
18:52I make my own deadline.
18:54So, how's it going?
18:57Yep.
18:58This is my sketch.
18:59What are your thoughts?
19:01Hmm.
19:02At first glance, it makes me feel like I'm traveling through a space tunnel with dazzling starlight.
19:11The sketch is titled Cosmic Eye.
19:15Look, don't the countless nebulae look like a pair of twinkling eyes?
19:19Yeah.
19:21I believe the main focus of our future expedition lies in the universe.
19:27Over here is the fourth dimensional world, designed using Escher style.
19:30I'm impressed.
19:35I didn't think a kid that grew up with a silver spoon would know much about design.
19:41Tell me, what do you think?
19:44Satisfactory.
19:44Just one word?
19:48Do you think I stand a chance?
19:49Oh, don't get too full of yourself.
19:51There's always somebody out there that's more talented.
19:54Don't be jealous of my talent.
19:57Are you afraid I'm going to overshadow you in our marriage or something?
20:00Your imagination runs wild.
20:01Miss Cox, your slot is right after Cox Architects.
20:18Really?
20:19What a coincidence.
20:20This is the fourth dimensional world.
20:30This is my design.
20:32She's presenting my ideas that I've been working on for over a month of sleepless nights.
20:36How did this get into your hands?
20:39It's a mysterious and undiscovered world.
20:42The one in the front, could you please sit down?
20:44You're blocking our view.
20:45This young designer from Cox is pretty impressive.
20:50Not bad.
20:52I heard that she's James Cox's daughter, the young lady of Cox Architects.
20:56Really?
20:57She's really talented and knowledgeable.
21:00She certainly has a bright future ahead.
21:03Bullshit!
21:03She's a thief!
21:06Are you going to mention Cosmic Eye and 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea?
21:09As well as academic research areas and artistic exchange spaces using new high-end technology
21:14like photoelectric curtain walls and LED light systems?
21:18How do you know the details of my concept?
21:22How do you know the details of my concept?
21:25Because you're a thief and this is my design.
21:29Why would you say that?
21:31I designed it with almost a month.
21:33How dare you?
21:35You've stolen literally every detail of my work.
21:37Is this how big corporations like Cox get to the top by stealing other people's ideas?
21:42Are you accusing her of stealing your concept?
21:44Yes, every detail.
21:46And luckily, I have proof on my laptop.
21:48I have rough drafts and 3D models.
21:50I can show you.
21:51Show me.
22:00What the?
22:06What the?
22:07You're as good at conspiracies as always, huh?
22:13What are you talking about, Katie?
22:16I apologize, everyone, for my little sister.
22:19There has clearly been some personal issues.
22:22She's not very much acting like herself at the moment.
22:26I'm sorry, Mr. Sawyer.
22:28I don't have any proof.
22:29Well.
22:42Kate!
22:42Thanks a lot.
22:47You're designing only the right to the project.
22:50You really are talented.
22:51Not as talented as you.
22:54But you should know you're going straight to hell.
22:58You see, in the competition, Katie, you really should do everything you can to win.
23:05Don't be too upset, sis.
23:06This project would have belonged to me with or without your design.
23:09Ethan, I'd already pull the strings for you.
23:12You'd really miss a good helper.
23:14Hey, pretty lady.
23:39Can I buy you a drink?
23:43Um...
23:43No, thank you.
23:45I...
23:46I think I'm...
23:48I'm just gonna go.
23:50Oh, oh, oh.
23:51Okay.
23:52I'm fine.
23:53I'm fine.
23:54Yeah.
23:56Cox Architects officially bagged the project from today's bidding.
24:00I heard Rebecca Cox really made a good impression today.
24:04And she's dating Ethan Lowe.
24:06Who is that?
24:08The person in charge of the technology center?
24:11Ethan Lowe from Lowe Corporation?
24:13I heard he used to go out with Kate.
24:15Will you stop?
24:17Listen, I think something is strange with them.
24:21What, you think Cox is playing dirty?
24:23Well, didn't I ask you to ensure a fair bidding?
24:30Earlier, I told Mr. Sawyer to give Imperial Design a chance and carry out the competition in a fair manner.
24:37Perhaps Mr. Sawyer assumed that I allowed the small company to participate in the bidding to gain popularity.
24:43He wasn't aware of my intention to take care of Kate.
24:47So that's why they eliminated her designs.
24:51Call Hadley.
24:52Have him check on the bidding.
24:53Oh God, it's Kate.
24:58What?
24:59Where is that?
25:00I'm not sure.
25:01Probably some hotel?
25:03Damn, it's stated above here that there will be a live video at 7.30pm.
25:06Well, call the police, man!
25:07I've got him!
25:12Stop struggling.
25:32You're St. Larson.
25:33Ha ha, that's right!
25:35So you do recognize me.
25:37You had complete contempt for me back then, didn't you?
25:41I have long, long waited to ruin you.
25:45Personally.
25:46Oh no, no, no!
25:47Don't be so fierce, baby girl.
25:49There's people watching us.
25:52Let me go!
25:53Let me go!
25:54You're not going to get away with this!
25:57You actually think people care about you, don't you?
26:00Even your parents have abandoned you.
26:04Help!
26:05You're just going to be my little toy in bed.
26:09If this, no one's coming for you, I think I'll take my first bite.
26:16Help! Somebody help!
26:17No one's coming for you.
26:19No, no, no.
26:19No.
26:22Who are you?
26:25Kate, Kate, hold on, hold on.
26:27Hey, hey, hey, hey.
26:29How are you?
26:30Sean?
26:30Yeah, yeah, that's right.
26:31It's your Sean-y.
26:34Everything's going to be okay now, all right?
26:41Woo!
26:43Okay.
26:44Let's go.
26:44Are you okay?
26:45And find out what happened tonight.
26:48Where am I?
27:09Okay, okay.
27:10Hey.
27:10Hey.
27:10You're in the hospital, but I just talked to the doctors, and they reassured me that everything's
27:16going to be okay.
27:17Okay.
27:18Hey, hey, hey, hey.
27:19Just relax.
27:23You need some rest so you can recover.
27:25Thank you for taking care of me, Sean.
27:32I really don't know what I would have done without you.
27:34You mean the world to me, Kate.
27:45And seeing you hurt like that, it just, it broke me.
27:53I want to be with you from now on, no matter what.
27:58So, what are you doing this weekend?
28:25I have a meeting with a new client.
28:27Oh.
28:28He wants me to design his villa.
28:29Hmm.
28:30But, aside from that, nothing.
28:32Why do you ask?
28:34Oh, it's Chase's grandfather's 80th birthday.
28:36I have a plus one.
28:37I wanted to see if you want to come along.
28:40Or, if you're not willing to join, then I can just ask somebody else.
28:46Will you introduce me as your Katie baby?
28:50Okay.
28:55No, no, never mind.
28:58I'll go anyway.
29:00In the love arena, they say that the first one who falls is the one that loses.
29:06And I'm doomed to lose my heart to you.
29:12Yeah.
29:12Mr. Love?
29:31Yes.
29:33Oh, you must be the architect.
29:36You look way younger than I expected.
29:38Catherine Cox.
29:47Your name rings the bell.
29:49Well, your surname rings a bell as well.
29:52Mind sharing the story?
29:55Not very good memories, but I'm sure you're nothing like the Lowe that I know.
29:59Sure, it's quite a common name.
30:01Well, uh, Mr. Lowe, if you'd like to share with me your ideas as we tour the villa.
30:09Sure.
30:11I wanted to have a classical vibe, but I also need a gym, theater, basketball court, and,
30:17uh, indoor swimming pool.
30:20Okay, we can do that.
30:22Um, well, I think I have a general idea of what you're looking for.
30:25Let me show you.
30:26Sure.
30:27Sure.
30:27Sure.
30:31I can find nothing to be fault at.
30:36This design plan looks just the way I had envisioned.
30:41Miss Cox, you're as good as top designers I've seen from abroad.
30:47This concept of indoor swimming pool is really innovative.
30:52It's going to look even better after rendering.
30:55Okay, how much time do you need before we start the construction?
30:58Two weeks should be good.
30:59I want to make sure everything is perfect.
31:02Okay, then you'll have it.
31:03Uncle Wesley!
31:21Hey!
31:22Planning on doing some renovations to your villa soon?
31:25When are you going to have time for that with your busy schedule?
31:29You should let Cox Architecture take care of that for you.
31:32Rebecca is a great designer.
31:35You should give her a chance.
31:37Ethan, I know a thing or two about the Cox designers.
31:41Their design style looks luxurious, but too traditional a resort for my preference.
31:45Well, you can express all of your desires to Cox and they'll take care of it for you.
31:51You know, their reputation has taken a bit of a hit lately.
31:56They could really use your business.
31:58What do you say, Uncle?
32:00Did you do it for me?
32:01No.
32:02I met Rebecca before.
32:04She doesn't have the experience and she knows nothing about the latest material and high-tech appliances.
32:11I'm downstairs waiting for you in the car.
32:25You can come down now.
32:26What's the hurry?
32:28Your lips feel lonely without mine on them?
32:31Oh, wow.
32:32I didn't know that's the way that she's been talking to her little Shawnee.
32:36Wait, am I on speaker?
32:43What is she doing?
32:44Just standing there staring.
32:47What, is she deaf?
32:49Shawn, I have a feeling that your wife is thinking some naughty feelings and you're probably the subject.
32:55Look, she's not like you, okay?
32:58Honestly, the more I see my sister-in-law, the more I find her cute.
33:04We live in the same city, but you want her over somehow?
33:07Hey, I'm warning you.
33:08Don't talk about her like that.
33:10She's going to be taken lightly.
33:13Kate?
33:18Kate, are you okay?
33:22Whoa.
33:25Isn't that frightening?
33:30Am I really that frightening?
33:32No.
33:33I was just lost in my thoughts earlier.
33:40You want to get in the car?
33:41Hi, Kate.
33:48What were you thinking just now?
33:50You didn't hear the loud honks?
33:52Based on your expression, I could guess.
33:54Shawn's probably on your mind.
33:56Actually, I was thinking about Chris Evans.
33:59Good one.
34:00I don't believe you.
34:02I probably shouldn't have asked that question, huh?
34:04Well, that's a little humiliating witnessing your little lovey-dovey moments.
34:09Anyway, Shawn's not particularly pleasant with his personality or his good temper.
34:15Uh, so what is it that you see in him?
34:19Well, now that I'm in love with him, I see all his weaknesses as strengths.
34:24And surprisingly, those gentle and understanding men make me feel a bit insecure.
34:31So, I'm very fond of all of his qualities.
34:35I probably shouldn't have came along today, huh?
34:41No, no.
34:43You're humorous.
34:46Young Master Harrison.
34:48I actually feel more relaxed with you here.
34:51So, what are you saying?
34:53That you're not relaxed when you're with me?
34:56Isn't that bound to happen?
34:57When you're getting along with someone you like,
35:00it can make your heart race and make you feel a little lost.
35:16Um, um, I can explain.
35:20Um, it's just some random pop-up ad on a webpage.
35:26It's fine.
35:27I usually watch those at home in secret.
35:29I'm shocked we have the same hobby.
35:40What do you think?
35:45Nice, sexy enough for you?
35:51What are you looking at?
35:54Ah.
35:55Go and get changed.
35:57Why?
35:59Because that dress is too revealing and I don't like it.
36:09Miss Cox.
36:11Mr. Lyons really cares for you.
36:15What do you mean?
36:16It does.
36:17When a man cares for a woman,
36:19he becomes possessive.
36:21He wouldn't want her to dress provocatively,
36:23and only he would be allowed to see her like that.
36:26After having worked in this business for many years,
36:28I've encountered numerous men.
36:32I think I'm a pretty good judge of character.
36:34And I think if you come in next week with those numbers that you showed me,
36:41it should be an easy deal.
36:42This is it.
36:43Perfect.
36:44Yeah, I mean, you've got a lot of research under you,
36:46so I think it should be easy.
36:48You tarnished Rebecca's reputation by falsely accusing her of copying your work?
36:58You need to go make amends now.
37:00I'm busy working on building my own career.
37:04I don't have time for your pathetic little show.
37:07What?
37:08Did you finally regret your choices?
37:10You know, maybe if you were a little bit more like you used to be,
37:13I could have provided you with some resources too.
37:15Your words hold no value in comparison.
37:19Your manners are horrific.
37:22Sure.
37:23Why don't you ask your father if he'll make you the heir and see how he responds?
37:28You're out of your mind.
37:30It's no wonder your parents disowned you.
37:33You deserve it.
37:36Ethan, do you even hear yourself?
37:38Am I wrong?
37:39You told reporters that the Cox family imprisoned and tortured you.
37:43Yet, you look perfectly healthy and full of energy.
37:48You have been nothing but a nuisance to the Cox family.
37:52Do you realize that your accusations have damaged their reputation
37:56and plummeted the stock prices?
37:58Overnight, the company's market value dropped by $2 billion.
38:03Do you even get that?
38:05The only misfortune here is that I actually once fell for you.
38:09Don't you walk away from me.
38:10It's your responsibility to fix this now.
38:14You need to repair the reputation of the Cox family.
38:19Bullshit.
38:20And get out of my way.
38:21I hope Cox goes bankrupt.
38:28Who were you just talking to?
38:30Well, well.
38:31I see you made peace with Ethan, huh?
38:34You were just talking to Ethan?
38:36Um...
38:36Kate, please go with me.
38:38I'd like to have a word.
38:42Sean, what's going on?
38:44Sean.
38:46It was nothing.
38:46We were just catching up.
38:47Why would you want to catch up with him?
38:49After everything he's done to you?
38:51You have nothing to worry about.
38:53I chose you, remember?
38:54I love you.
38:56I know, Kate.
38:57Our love is stronger than any past mistakes.
39:01Let's just focus on the future.
39:04Kate, I need to tell you something.
39:06Something I've been holding inside for far too long.
39:08What is it, Sean?
39:09You can tell me anything.
39:12Every moment I spend with you has been pure torture.
39:15I mean, your presence just consumes me.
39:19Consumed by your presence, and I can no longer suppress it.
39:22Sean, I never expected...
39:29Kate, you drive me crazy.
39:32I mean, your beauty, your spirit, everything about you captivates me.
39:37I just...
39:38I just want to feel your touch.
39:40I just want to...
39:42I just want to taste your love.
39:43I just want to lose myself in you.
39:47I never realized you felt this way.
39:50But we have to be careful.
39:53There's so many consequences and risks.
39:55I've thought about the consequences and risks.
39:58But we can't deny ourselves of this.
40:00The pool between us is too strong.
40:02I mean, we can't go throughout life not experiencing this.
40:07Sean, I've been trying to fight this attraction.
40:10But it's becoming impossible.
40:14But we have to be careful for everyone involved.
40:21And I promise to do everything I can to protect you.
40:27But let's not deny ourselves a chance to experience this intoxicating connection.
40:35Even if just for a stellar moment.
40:39Sean.
40:39I don't know if we're making the right choice.
40:43But in this moment, I want you.
40:47Oh.
41:00Okay, there you are.
41:02Allow me to introduce you to my nephew, Ethan.
41:04So, you're Ethan's uncle.
41:10Yeah.
41:11Ethan and I are family.
41:13So, it seems like fate has a way of intertwining our lives, huh?
41:16So, who are you?
41:22Who am I?
41:27Oh.
41:27So, you married me under the false assumption that I was Ethan's uncle, so you can get back
41:35at your ex, right?
41:35Is that it?
41:38Sean, it wasn't supposed to be like this.
41:39I thought that...
41:40So, I was nothing more than just a pawn in your game?
41:44Just a tool for your revenge?
41:45Is that it?
41:46Sean, it wasn't supposed to be like this.
41:48I thought...
41:49You thought you could use me to get to him.
41:53I have some other guests to attend to.
41:56Enjoy the rest of your evening, okay?
42:00Sean, I made a mistake, okay?
42:03It was a misunderstanding.
42:04A mistake that shattered my trust for you, Kate.
42:05How do we move on from this?
42:11I love you, Sean.
42:12Please, just give me another chance.
42:14No.
42:15Love can't be built on lies and revenge.
42:18I thought what we had was real, Kate.
42:21And now I can't even believe anything that you say to me.
42:24I...
42:24I made a mistake.
42:26I'm sorry.
42:27I love you.
42:28I truly, truly do.
42:29If you give me another chance, I'll make it up to you.
42:31I'll spend the rest of my life making it up to you.
42:33You can't make it up to me.
42:35Something like this, I need time.
42:38And healing.
42:41And I...
42:41No, I need space from you on this.
42:58Ladies and gentlemen, after voting, we are now down to the final competition.
43:02Now, the final winning plan for the new City Art Museum will be either the design by Rebecca
43:11Cox from Cox Architects or Catherine Cox from CC Studios.
43:17But for now, how about we take a quick break, huh?
43:21Yes.
43:21The final presentation will begin in 20 minutes.
43:24You're sure you're going to make it, Kate.
43:30Thank you so much.
43:32Everything I've worked for comes down to this moment.
43:34I've triple-checked my design to make sure it's secure.
43:37There's no way anyone can steal it like this.
43:39No.
43:46Damn it!
43:46Kate, isn't it?
43:52I couldn't help hearing your distress.
43:55Is there anything I can do to assist?
43:56Dr. Addison, I can't believe you're here.
43:59My model, it was damaged.
44:01I don't know how it happened.
44:03Let's take a look.
44:05Hmm.
44:07Don't worry, Kate.
44:08I can fix this.
44:09Your design deserves to be presented in its full glory.
44:12You have no idea how much I appreciate this.
44:17You're talented, Kate.
44:21That is remarkable.
44:23Your design reflects ingenuity, elegance,
44:28and a deep understanding of architectural concepts.
44:33I am truly impressed.
44:35Dr. Addison, your words of praise mean the world to me.
44:38And this competition is tough, but I truly believe in my design.
44:44Well, Kate, I see immense potential in you.
44:48And I'd be willing to personally recommend your work to the committee.
44:54Your talent deserves recognition and opportunity to flourish.
45:00I don't even know what to say.
45:03Thank you so much.
45:05No, go on.
45:06The stage is yours.
45:07Hello, everyone.
45:12Thank you so much for coming today.
45:14My name is Catherine Cox,
45:15and today I will be presenting my project titled Cosmic Eye.
45:22And thank you all so much for coming.
45:24I hope you all have an amazing evening.
45:31Thank you so much.
45:33I could not have done this without you.
45:35Well, actually, there's one more person you need to thank.
45:38And he's the mysterious investor who's been backing your architectural firm.
45:44He reached out to me and had me come here to ensure your work received fair treatment.
45:50Who on earth is this investor?
45:52Well, you're about to find out, Kate.
45:53The investor feels it's time for you two to meet.
46:00Congratulations again.
46:10Sean?
46:12You're the investor?
46:13Yes, it was me all along.
46:18Take a seat.
46:20I feel I owe you an explanation.
46:25You see, on paper, my name is Sean Lyons.
46:29Having my mother's maiden name made it easy for privacy.
46:31But normally, people know me as Sean Alvarez.
46:37Pedro Alvarez?
46:38My father, yes.
46:40I'm the heir to the Alvarez family.
46:42And I came to the West Coast to execute a new business venture.
46:46Why did you marry me?
46:51Honestly.
46:53To escape the arranged marriage that my father imposed upon me.
46:58And, of course, you made yourself very hard to ignore when we first met.
47:02Which I didn't dislike.
47:06So, this whole time our marriage was just a ruse?
47:11A ruse for both you and I, wasn't it?
47:14And now that the business deal went through, I need to move back to the East Coast immediately.
47:22So, I thought that there should be a bit of closure between us.
47:29Here's the divorce agreement.
47:31Take a look.
47:34There was nothing sincere between you and me?
47:37No.
47:44Why did you invest in me?
47:49Because you took care of Mia.
47:50And you failed the investors meeting.
47:53And you tried to poison my dog.
47:54All my possessions belong to you.
48:20You, Kate Cox, belong to me.
48:23You really thought I could let you go?
48:35Why did you do this to me?
48:38After all the little teases you gave me, I thought one would be harmless.
48:42Katie.
48:43Sean.
48:44Oh, Sean.
48:51You found a brilliant way to shut me up.
