00:00:00Good morning, Mr. Shaw.
00:00:12Where is Stella?
00:00:14Mr. Shaw!
00:00:22Where did you go?
00:00:23Unauthorized absence from duty is a major violation.
00:00:26I...
00:00:28I have to make sure it's perfect, so the clients will sign the contract.
00:00:50That's done.
00:00:51Staying up all night was worth it.
00:00:54My period came early from staying up late.
00:01:00I ran out of pads.
00:01:01I have to go buy some.
00:01:02It's 9.15 a.m.
00:01:09Roll call.
00:01:10Mr. Shaw.
00:01:24Everyone was present for the roll call just now, except...
00:01:29Stella.
00:01:31Jacob, I stayed up all night working, and my period started this morning.
00:01:36I was out buying pads.
00:01:38During the roll call, I was gone less than 10 minutes.
00:01:41What you went out to buy is not an excuse.
00:01:47When it comes to company rules, everyone is treated the same.
00:01:50Even though you're my fiancé, as the company CEO, I can't break the rules because of personal ties.
00:01:56Otherwise, what would the employees think of me?
00:01:59What are you going to do?
00:02:00You're fired.
00:02:13Ms. Kurt will handle your resignation.
00:02:15You're my fiancé, after all.
00:02:17Don't make this ugly.
00:02:18Jacob?
00:02:21You know how important this contract is.
00:02:24I stayed up all night, working on it.
00:02:28My period's been awful all morning.
00:02:29And now, just because I stepped out for 10 minutes to get pads?
00:02:34You want to fire me?
00:02:39This deal was closed by Wendy.
00:02:42You think stealing the credit will make me go easy on you?
00:02:46Wendy?
00:02:47No way.
00:02:49What did you say?
00:02:50I said, she's just a secretary.
00:02:53No way she can close a 200 million tech deal.
00:02:58Stella.
00:02:59I know you're angry, so you're saying these things to humiliate me.
00:03:06But I was only doing my job.
00:03:10I didn't purposefully report you for being absent.
00:03:13I did it for the company and Mr. Shaw.
00:03:15Besides, Stella, I know you usually don't care much about your appearance.
00:03:23But we're a cosmetics company, after all.
00:03:26As a company executive, you shouldn't be dressed this gruffly.
00:03:32Otherwise, clients might think we sell fake products.
00:03:36Since you know I'm company's executive, you should show the proper respect.
00:03:41This is insubordination.
00:03:42Did you complete your training?
00:03:44Mr. Shaw.
00:03:45I'm sorry.
00:03:47I was only thinking about the company image.
00:03:53Stella?
00:03:54Have you had enough?
00:03:56Must you be this arrogant?
00:03:58I already said it earlier.
00:03:59You're fired.
00:04:01You're no longer a company executive.
00:04:02As the CEO, I'm ordering you to apologize to Wendy for your rudeness.
00:04:09Apologize?
00:04:12To her?
00:04:15Jacob, you don't have to fire me.
00:04:18I resign.
00:04:39Mr. Clark's leaving?
00:04:41What is Mr. Shaw even thinking?
00:04:43Ms. Clark is so capable.
00:04:45She definitely closed that deal.
00:04:47How could he believe it was Ms. Clark's doing?
00:04:49Don't you agree that Ms. Clark is the backbone of this company?
00:04:53Now that she's gone, can the company even survive?
00:04:55All the projects I worked on are on my computer.
00:04:58Why should he get them?
00:04:59I'd rather throw them away than leave them here.
00:05:12Here, have a sip.
00:05:13Careful.
00:05:14My stomach hurts.
00:05:16I need you to rub it.
00:05:18Seriously.
00:05:19Since you're on your period, you should have rested at home.
00:05:22Why come to work?
00:05:23Are you feeling bad for me?
00:05:25What do you think, my princess?
00:05:28Two more days.
00:05:30And you can have me.
00:05:32Jacob, you really surprised me.
00:05:35Five years together, and in the end, I have to see you cheating with my own eyes.
00:05:39I want nothing to do with a scumbag like you.
00:05:41I want nothing to do with a scumbag like you.
00:05:42But, you'll regret this.
00:05:47Hello?
00:05:50Zach, I'll work for you and help make your company Bell Homes top this year.
00:05:54One condition.
00:05:56Does your company allow employees to buy pads on the clock?
00:06:02Stella, it has been years.
00:06:05Your stitches are funny.
00:06:07As long as you work for me, forget buying them on the clock.
00:06:10I can't even go buy them.
00:06:13For you, myself.
00:06:15Deal.
00:06:16You're serious.
00:06:17You're really coming.
00:06:19I'm not joking.
00:06:21Stella, you mean it.
00:06:24Others might not know you, but I do.
00:06:27You single-handedly built Shaw Corp for Jacob.
00:06:31You're giving up?
00:06:33Back then, I wanted to invest 400 million so you could start your own company.
00:06:37You refused and said that it would be betraying Jacob.
00:06:41Before I received his firing notice this morning, I really did think that way.
00:06:45But now, there's no need anymore.
00:06:48I heard that.
00:06:49You two were about to get married.
00:06:52What's going on now?
00:06:53You broke up?
00:06:56Then, Ms. Clark, can I get in the line?
00:06:59As you know, I've liked you for a long time.
00:07:02Mr. Lane, I'm not in the mood right now.
00:07:05I can't take jokes.
00:07:06Book me a plane ticket to your place.
00:07:08I'll start work tomorrow.
00:07:09All right.
00:07:10No problem.
00:07:11Leave it to me.
00:07:13Tell me what position or resources you want.
00:07:16Give me people and money.
00:07:18Don't worry about anything else.
00:07:19I'll pack tonight and head over.
00:07:30Sorry.
00:07:30The number you have dialed has been disconnected.
00:07:35That scumbag.
00:07:36He changes passwords as quickly as he changes women.
00:07:39It's really you.
00:08:09You.
00:08:13Hello?
00:08:14Stella?
00:08:15What is it?
00:08:17Nothing.
00:08:18Just needed confirmation.
00:08:19I'm not at the office right now.
00:08:21Are you at my place then?
00:08:25No.
00:08:27All right.
00:08:28Got it.
00:08:28Why would she call you?
00:08:32What else could it be?
00:08:34She was testing me.
00:08:36So what if she knows you're here?
00:08:38All these years, she has done everything I said and worn herself down.
00:08:44She's always afraid I would dump her.
00:08:47She wouldn't dare cause trouble.
00:08:49Over the years, she used your influence to get her management position and acting arrogantly.
00:08:56Too bad though.
00:09:00She's not anymore.
00:09:04Forget about her.
00:09:05Let's continue.
00:09:06Hello?
00:09:09Is this the smart lock company?
00:09:11I'm heading out of town.
00:09:12But my door lock is broken.
00:09:13It can't lock by itself.
00:09:15Can you lock it from your system?
00:09:20You changed the password to block me out.
00:09:22I can block the door and trap you inside.
00:09:24I hope you two enjoy your time in there.
00:09:40Stella.
00:09:41Have you lost your mind?
00:09:42Why did you suddenly lock the door?
00:09:44Wendy and I were...
00:09:46Were what?
00:09:47We were locked out all night.
00:09:51You're laughing?
00:09:52Stella.
00:09:53This kind of prank is not funny at all.
00:09:56I'm already exhausted from working overtime.
00:09:58Can you not be so childish?
00:10:00Of course.
00:10:01Serving your mistress at the office during the day...
00:10:03Then taking her home at night too?
00:10:05Even a working ox isn't as busy as you.
00:10:09It's no wonder you're tired.
00:10:10You stalked me?
00:10:12Stella.
00:10:12You're getting more and more ridiculous.
00:10:15All I did was fire you.
00:10:17I was just following company rules.
00:10:20Wendy is my secretary.
00:10:21I took her home for work.
00:10:23There's nothing between us.
00:10:26Why are you being so petty?
00:10:27Mr. Shaw, you sound so righteous.
00:10:29It's almost made me forget.
00:10:31There are cameras at home.
00:10:32What cameras?
00:10:36Hello?
00:10:37Hello?
00:10:41She actually hung up on me.
00:10:43Is she out of...
00:10:47Stella?
00:10:51You're more despicable than I imagined.
00:10:54Why did you install cameras at home?
00:10:57You'd better delete everything within half an hour.
00:10:59Then, come over and apologize to Wendy and me.
00:11:02I don't know.
00:11:08Ah.
00:11:10I don't know.
00:11:12Hello?
00:11:27Stella, it's me. Come to Amberg Hospital right now.
00:11:31Wendy and I were in a car accident.
00:11:33So, why are you calling me? I don't even want the car.
00:11:36Do you want me to collect your bodies?
00:11:39Sorry, I'm not interested.
00:11:40The car is registered under your name. You need to come over now.
00:11:43The traffic police are here. They'll find you if you refuse to cooperate.
00:11:53Hello? Something came up. I need to handle it.
00:11:57Help me change my flight to a later one.
00:11:59Okay. Need any help?
00:12:01That's nothing serious.
00:12:05How's everything? I asked you to prepare.
00:12:08As you instructed, we've arranged a private office and a project team for Ms. Clark.
00:12:14A project team alone isn't enough. Transfer people from R&D and the marketing department as well.
00:12:19Mr. Tlay, this setup is basically the level used to receive a partner. There's too many people.
00:12:24Stella's not just a partner.
00:12:27She's my woman.
00:12:28I'll make sure she gets the best of everything.
00:12:38You're still alive? Where are the police?
00:12:44Stella, you're here.
00:12:49Stella, you're here.
00:12:51Where are the police?
00:12:52Yes. I came to explain the vehicle registration.
00:12:55Stella, listen to me.
00:12:57A black sedan caused a serious hit and run on West Loop.
00:13:01The victim remains in critical condition.
00:13:04Police are reviewing footage to track down the vehicle and urge the driver to surrender.
00:13:08So you didn't just hit someone. You ran.
00:13:11That's not true. We didn't hit anyone.
00:13:13He came out of nowhere.
00:13:15We didn't have time to break.
00:13:16So you did hit him.
00:13:18The police will decide if you're at fault.
00:13:21And if the victim was really at fault, then why did you run?
00:13:25Who said I ran?
00:13:26Wendy was driving at the time.
00:13:28She was so scared that her face paled.
00:13:30She couldn't even grip the wheel.
00:13:32I was worried she might faint, so I brought her here first.
00:13:35Besides, I needed some time to calm down and figure out how to handle this.
00:13:40How you handle it is your business.
00:13:42To avoid unnecessary trouble, I need to tell the traffic police that I'm not the driver.
00:13:48Stella, go tell them that you were the one driving.
00:13:56You want me to take the fall for her?
00:14:00You want me to take the fall for her?
00:14:03Don't make it sound so awful.
00:14:06I'm just asking you for a small favor.
00:14:08Sorry, that is one favor I can't do.
00:14:11You're my fiancé.
00:14:12If you can't help with something this minor, how am I supposed to marry you?
00:14:16Call off the engagement then.
00:14:18Stella, think it through.
00:14:19I know marrying me is your dream.
00:14:28Hello?
00:14:29Miss Clark, right?
00:14:30A car registered to you was in an accident on West Loop.
00:14:33There's suspicion of a hit and run.
00:14:35Could you tell us if you were the one driving?
00:14:37Yes, it was her.
00:14:42I'm her fiancé.
00:14:43I was sitting in the passenger seat.
00:14:45Sorry, officer, for causing you trouble.
00:14:47I'll convince her to turn herself in.
00:14:49Jacob, you really surprised me.
00:14:57I know.
00:14:58We've had many misunderstandings lately.
00:15:00How about this?
00:15:02As long as you help Wendy with a small favor, I'll marry you once this is over.
00:15:07Deal?
00:15:10Jacob, I wonder how you can be this shameless.
00:15:14I'll never agree to such an outrageous demand.
00:15:18You'd better give up that idea.
00:15:24Stella.
00:15:24After the accident, I told her to turn herself in.
00:15:47But she said she didn't want to go to jail.
00:15:50She even said that.
00:15:51If the truth comes out, we can just compensate the family to settle the case.
00:15:57Note that down.
00:15:58We'll investigate later.
00:16:01So what if you have the money?
00:16:03Does that mean you can do whatever you want?
00:16:06My son is still lying in the ICU.
00:16:10I don't want a cent.
00:16:12I want to see her run in prison.
00:16:14Ma'am, please calm down.
00:16:16We'll get to the bottom of this.
00:16:22Stella, you're awake?
00:16:26I told them about your hit and run.
00:16:29You bitch!
00:16:30My son is in the ICU!
00:16:32And you're sleeping here!
00:16:33Have you no shame?
00:16:35Stella.
00:16:37Don't be scared.
00:16:38It's just a drug that keeps you from talking.
00:16:41Just take the blame and go to prison for a few years.
00:16:44When you get out, I'll give you the antidote.
00:16:48Stella didn't even have an office of her own at Shaw Corp.
00:16:52Now that she's working for me, I have to make it up to her and not let her suffer at all.
00:16:58Mr. Lane, this office is the best choice for Ms. Clark.
00:17:02It has a private bathroom and a private pantry.
00:17:05No matter what Ms. Clark wants to eat or drink, it's all very convenient.
00:17:09Well done.
00:17:13It's been half a day already.
00:17:15There's still no reply.
00:17:17This is not like Stella.
00:17:21Find out what happened to Stella.
00:17:23And book me a flight that leaves right now.
00:17:27Yes, sir.
00:17:29Stella, please be safe.
00:17:34Ms. Clark, this is the accident site footage from Mr. Shaw.
00:17:38You seem to be the driver.
00:17:39Do you have anything to say in your defense?
00:17:42It's fake!
00:17:44Fake!
00:17:44The car is yours!
00:17:46Your fiancé also said you were behind the wheel!
00:17:49Are you still denying it?
00:17:51Yeah.
00:17:51I've tried to convince her so many times, but she just wouldn't listen.
00:17:56I don't know what else to do, so I'm hoping the law will awaken her conscience.
00:18:00Please don't interrupt our talk with the suspect.
00:18:02Until the investigation is complete, she has the right to explain.
00:18:06Alright.
00:18:07Too bad.
00:18:08She can't talk now.
00:18:10Jacob?
00:18:11You've repeatedly proven that.
00:18:15When it comes to being shameless, you're way ahead of everyone else.
00:18:19Take Stella back for further investigation.
00:18:26Mr. Lane, we've just received a report from our colleagues here.
00:18:29Everything has been investigated.
00:18:37Jacob really has some nerves.
00:18:39How dare he do this to Stella?
00:18:42Does he think he's untouchable?
00:18:44He's just asking for trouble.
00:18:51Go to the hospital.
00:18:53Yes, sir.
00:18:54You ruined my son!
00:18:56Run in hell!
00:18:58You bitch!
00:19:00Kill her!
00:19:01Calm down.
00:19:02Don't get worked up.
00:19:03Those societal failures should be jailed and never let out.
00:19:07Expose her online.
00:19:08Ruin her reputation.
00:19:10The driver is a woman?
00:19:12No wonder she's a romance.
00:19:14Take a picture of her.
00:19:17Wait!
00:19:18She was not the driver.
00:19:38What is Zach Lane doing here?
00:19:41Stella, don't worry.
00:19:44From now on, I'll speak up for you.
00:19:48You're speaking up for her?
00:19:49Who are you to her?
00:19:52Professionally, I'm her boss.
00:19:54I have duty to protect my own employees.
00:19:56Personally,
00:19:57I'm pursuing her.
00:20:00So,
00:20:03I won't let anyone bully her.
00:20:05Stella,
00:20:06no wonder you dared to make a scene.
00:20:09Turns out you've got Mr. Lane backing you.
00:20:12That explains why you wanted to break off our engagement.
00:20:15You've already found a new guy.
00:20:18You're really something.
00:20:20Mr. Shaw,
00:20:20those are some words.
00:20:22Stella's an amateur next to you.
00:20:24You're the real pro.
00:20:26And playing both sides.
00:20:28Mr. Lane,
00:20:29isn't it a little rude to start throwing accusations?
00:20:31What?
00:20:32You don't have the guts to admit it.
00:20:34Pushing your fiancé as a scapegoat for your mistress,
00:20:37Mr. Shaw,
00:20:38your behavior,
00:20:39is honestly a first for me.
00:20:42Cut the nonsense.
00:20:45Officer,
00:20:46on the day of the incident,
00:20:48Stella was resting at the hotel.
00:20:50I retrieved the hotel surveillance footage.
00:20:52Stella
00:20:53has a solid alibi.
00:20:55That proves her innocence.
00:20:57As for the dash cam,
00:20:59I consulted an AI expert for the analysis.
00:21:01The video was artificially generated.
00:21:03That's why it passed in a casual glance.
00:21:05What?
00:21:05The video is fake?
00:21:07She was framed?
00:21:09Then,
00:21:09then who was it
00:21:10that ran over my son?
00:21:17Jacob,
00:21:18isn't it irony the accuser
00:21:20knows just how innocent the other side is.
00:21:22faking evidence
00:21:24to frame your fiancé?
00:21:26Are you even a man?
00:21:28I have no idea
00:21:29what you're talking about.
00:21:32Fine.
00:21:34Let me make it crystal clear.
00:21:37The real culprit
00:21:38wasn't Stella.
00:21:42But Jacob's affair partner,
00:21:44Wendy Kurt.
00:21:46What?
00:21:46What?
00:21:46It wasn't her way.
00:21:48No way.
00:21:48Huh?
00:21:52This document needs to be sent
00:21:54to the Bureau for authentication.
00:21:55Ms. Clark's alibi video
00:21:57also requires a professional analysis.
00:21:59At the same time,
00:22:00we need to run verification
00:22:00on the witnesses
00:22:01and the evidence.
00:22:02So,
00:22:03until the results are in,
00:22:05all relevant suspects
00:22:06are not allowed to leave.
00:22:07This includes Ms. Clark
00:22:08and Mr. Shaw.
00:22:09Officer,
00:22:10what do you mean by this?
00:22:12Isn't this case
00:22:13already concluded and settled?
00:22:14Stella was the culprit.
00:22:16No one else was involved.
00:22:17The evidence is inconclusive.
00:22:19Verifying the evidence
00:22:20is a necessary step.
00:22:21Please cooperate with us,
00:22:22Mr. Shaw.
00:22:25Please bring Wendy out.
00:22:26Officer,
00:22:27rest assured,
00:22:28we will cooperate
00:22:28with the investigation.
00:22:29It's just that
00:22:30Stella's throat is injured.
00:22:32I have a private doctor
00:22:33waiting in the car.
00:22:33Would it be okay
00:22:34if I take her to the treatment first?
00:22:36Do not leave the hospital grounds.
00:22:37Of course.
00:22:49What are you doing?
00:22:51Release me!
00:22:53What are you doing?
00:22:55I'm injured!
00:22:56Wendy,
00:22:56you're suspected of hit and run
00:22:57and are under investigation.
00:22:58Mr. Shaw,
00:23:00they're trying to arrest me.
00:23:02I didn't do anything.
00:23:03Mr. Shaw,
00:23:03please save me.
00:23:04Relax.
00:23:05It hasn't come to that yet.
00:23:06But,
00:23:07they'll find out sooner or later.
00:23:09Mr. Shaw,
00:23:09I don't want to leave.
00:23:11I don't want to die.
00:23:12Mr. Shaw.
00:23:12Don't talk nonsense.
00:23:14Well,
00:23:14I'm really scared,
00:23:16Mr. Shaw.
00:23:16I'll find a way
00:23:17to deal with this.
00:23:18Anything money can fix
00:23:20isn't a real problem.
00:23:22Find those two old farts
00:23:26and tell them
00:23:27they will get
00:23:28$10 million
00:23:29if they drop the appeal.
00:23:32Got it?
00:23:32Yes,
00:23:33Mr. Shaw.
00:23:33I'll go negotiate
00:23:34with them now.
00:23:36Excuse me.
00:23:37May I have a word?
00:23:43I think
00:23:43I'll get straight to the point.
00:23:45Mr. Shaw sent me.
00:23:47Given what happened,
00:23:48Mr. Shaw is willing
00:23:49to offer some compensation.
00:23:51I have $1 million in cash here,
00:23:54which you can take
00:23:54at first as compensation
00:23:55as long as you drop the appeal
00:23:58and stop holding
00:23:59the driver responsible.
00:24:01We'll transfer
00:24:02another $10 million
00:24:03to your account
00:24:04by the end of today.
00:24:05What do you think?
00:24:08This medicine
00:24:09will counteract
00:24:10numbing agent
00:24:10in your throat.
00:24:19Thank you
00:24:25for today.
00:24:27I can't believe
00:24:28Jacob bullied you like that.
00:24:30He even had an nerve
00:24:30to free Mio
00:24:31for someone else's crime.
00:24:32But the truth
00:24:33is about to come out.
00:24:35One of them
00:24:36did a hit and run
00:24:37and the other
00:24:38faked evidence
00:24:39that buys him
00:24:40two years in prison.
00:24:41When will the bid results
00:24:42for the Balam project
00:24:43be announced?
00:24:45Tomorrow.
00:24:46No rush.
00:24:47Let them go for today.
00:24:48We'll send them
00:24:49to prison
00:24:49after the bid results
00:24:51are out tomorrow.
00:24:53Why?
00:24:57Jacob's the kind of guy
00:24:58who's arrogant
00:24:59to a fault.
00:25:01He's convinced
00:25:01Shaw Corp
00:25:02will win the bid
00:25:03so he poured
00:25:04all the company's cash
00:25:05into this project.
00:25:07Which means
00:25:07the moment they lose the bid
00:25:09Corp's cash flow
00:25:10will collapse instantly.
00:25:12By then
00:25:12the company he built
00:25:14single-handedly
00:25:15will collapse overnight
00:25:16and declare bankruptcy.
00:25:18I get it now.
00:25:21You want him to taste
00:25:22what it's like
00:25:23to lose everything
00:25:24before sending him
00:25:26to prison.
00:25:27You want to
00:25:28break his spirit
00:25:29then prison his body.
00:25:32For some people
00:25:33imprisonment
00:25:34is too light
00:25:35a punishment.
00:25:36He needs to feel
00:25:37despair.
00:25:38That's the real end.
00:25:40Miss Clark
00:25:40you sure are
00:25:42something else.
00:25:43When it comes
00:25:43to destroying people
00:25:44you're even more
00:25:45ruthless than I am.
00:25:50If I were ruthless
00:25:51how could I make up
00:25:53for what I've been through?
00:25:54Real revenge?
00:25:56It's never eye for an eye.
00:25:58It's paying back tenfold.
00:25:59Do you think money
00:26:00can buy a human life?
00:26:02That was my son!
00:26:03A living, breathing life!
00:26:05Not something
00:26:06you can pay off!
00:26:08Do you think
00:26:08we want money?
00:26:10My son had only one life!
00:26:13You think you can
00:26:14silence us with cash?
00:26:17Do you even have a conscience?
00:26:20I'd rather die
00:26:21than take this money!
00:26:23Get out!
00:26:23You think you can
00:26:25ban justice
00:26:25with your money?
00:26:27Huh?
00:26:28You think paying
00:26:28compensation
00:26:29will settle everything?
00:26:32Get out of my sight!
00:26:34Stop insulting us!
00:26:36Get lost!
00:26:36Get lost!
00:26:37Mr. Shaw
00:26:38They refused our offer.
00:26:40Then up the amount.
00:26:41Money makes the world
00:26:42go round.
00:26:43Double the compensation.
00:26:45Do I need to teach you?
00:26:45Understood.
00:26:46Alright, I'm on it.
00:26:48He thinks he can use money
00:26:49to cover this up.
00:26:51But he doesn't seem
00:26:52to be going well.
00:26:52The victim's family
00:26:53has some real backbone
00:26:55and refuses
00:26:56to be bought off.
00:27:00Two hours are almost up.
00:27:02If this keeps up,
00:27:04he'll be sent to prison.
00:27:06Then what about our plan?
00:27:07We will
00:27:08help him out!
00:27:14Sir, ma'am?
00:27:16Do you have a moment?
00:27:18What is it?
00:27:19Are you here
00:27:20to throw money at us too?
00:27:21Let me tell you this.
00:27:23Not a chance!
00:27:24That Shaw guy
00:27:25offered us
00:27:2650 million
00:27:26to silence us.
00:27:29What's your offer
00:27:30for my son's life?
00:27:33Ma'am,
00:27:34I'm not the killer.
00:27:35I have no reason
00:27:36to buy off
00:27:36the truth.
00:27:38You're right.
00:27:40I can see it clearly now.
00:27:43That Shaw guy
00:27:43is the one
00:27:44who knocked down
00:27:44my son.
00:27:46He's worried
00:27:47the evidence
00:27:48will lead straight
00:27:48to him.
00:27:49That's why he tried
00:27:51to silence us
00:27:52with money.
00:27:53As long as we don't appeal,
00:27:55he and that Wendy
00:27:56won't have to go to jail.
00:27:58People like him think
00:27:59money and power
00:28:01are a get-out-of-jail-free card.
00:28:03No matter what crime
00:28:04they commit,
00:28:04as long as they have money,
00:28:06they think they can
00:28:07get away with it.
00:28:08We will never
00:28:09take his money.
00:28:10What we want
00:28:11is justice!
00:28:12I completely agree
00:28:13with you.
00:28:14Justice matters
00:28:14more than money.
00:28:17But,
00:28:18I do have a suggestion.
00:28:20One that will
00:28:20make the culprit
00:28:21pay a much heavier price
00:28:23and suffer
00:28:23a harsher punishment.
00:28:25Would you like
00:28:25to hear it?
00:28:27Yeah, go ahead.
00:28:34Stella must have gone
00:28:36to convince
00:28:37those old farts
00:28:38not to accept
00:28:39my money.
00:28:40Mr. Shaw,
00:28:40what do we do now?
00:28:43Stella hates me
00:28:44to the core.
00:28:45She's definitely
00:28:46persuading them.
00:28:47Am I going to jail?
00:28:48No, we help.
00:28:49I'm finished.
00:28:50Don't worry.
00:28:50Mr. Shaw.
00:28:51There's still a way out.
00:28:52What do we do?
00:28:54It's alright.
00:28:55Calm down.
00:28:58Did you understand
00:29:00what I just explained?
00:29:01What you need to do
00:29:02is pretend to accept
00:29:03their money first.
00:29:04Make them think
00:29:05you've given in.
00:29:06Are you saying
00:29:07the Shaw guy
00:29:08is about to go bankrupt?
00:29:09I assure you,
00:29:10by tomorrow,
00:29:12you two will see it
00:29:13on the news
00:29:14of the Shaw corpse bankruptcy.
00:29:16File the appeal,
00:29:17then have him put in jail.
00:29:19That way,
00:29:20you hit him the hardest.
00:29:22Doesn't that feel right?
00:29:27The investigation results
00:29:28are out.
00:29:29It's true.
00:29:29The forensic analysis
00:29:32is now available.
00:29:33The dash cam footage
00:29:34has been retrieved
00:29:35and restored.
00:29:36The original footage
00:29:37shows that
00:29:38the driver wasn't
00:29:39Miss Clark,
00:29:40but Wendy.
00:29:42As of now,
00:29:43Wendy is suspected
00:29:44of hit and run
00:29:45and Jacob
00:29:46of fabricating evidence.
00:29:47You two need to come
00:29:48with us
00:29:49for the investigation.
00:29:50Take them away.
00:29:51No,
00:29:52it wasn't me.
00:29:53I didn't do it
00:29:54on purpose.
00:29:55I don't want to go to jail.
00:29:57I don't want to go to jail.
00:29:58Mr. Shaw,
00:29:59you promised to fix this.
00:30:01Help me.
00:30:02Please help me.
00:30:03Stella,
00:30:04you were behind this.
00:30:05Don't think
00:30:06I don't know
00:30:06what you did.
00:30:07Just you wait.
00:30:09I won't let you off.
00:30:10I don't want to go to jail.
00:30:12I don't want to go to jail.
00:30:13Help me.
00:30:14Someone help me.
00:30:15Officer,
00:30:19we're dropping the appeal.
00:30:21Please let them go.
00:30:26Victims, family.
00:30:27Are you sure about this?
00:30:29Yes.
00:30:30We've made our decision.
00:30:31We won't file an appeal.
00:30:33We'll accept their compensation
00:30:35and won't pursue liability anymore.
00:30:38Mr. Shaw,
00:30:39you'll honor the compensation.
00:30:41You promised us, right?
00:30:43I want you to promise it again
00:30:44in front of everybody.
00:30:46Of course.
00:30:47I,
00:30:48Jacob Shaw,
00:30:49will not break my word to you.
00:30:51I'll pay
00:30:52the compensation in full.
00:30:53Whatever amount you want,
00:30:54I'll give it to you.
00:30:55We can process the transfer right now.
00:30:58Since you've agreed to settle privately,
00:31:00I respect your decision.
00:31:02Release them.
00:31:02See that,
00:31:20Stella?
00:31:20Stella,
00:31:20you really thought you could talk them out
00:31:24of taking my money?
00:31:25How naive.
00:31:27Congratulations, Mr. Shaw.
00:31:29If he'd really been taken away today,
00:31:32you would have missed tomorrow's bid, Gala.
00:31:34You've been looking forward to it
00:31:36for so long.
00:31:37Stella,
00:31:38you think I don't know
00:31:39what you're scheming?
00:31:41You'd love for me not to show up.
00:31:43So you could swoop in
00:31:44and steal Shaw Corp's winning bid.
00:31:46Dream on.
00:31:47Too bad,
00:31:49you miscalculated.
00:31:50Yeah,
00:31:51I miscalculated.
00:31:53I honestly
00:31:54didn't expect money
00:31:56to be this powerful.
00:31:58Mr. Shaw,
00:31:59your resolve put me to shame.
00:32:01I'll show you
00:32:02at tomorrow's banquet
00:32:03who
00:32:04the real ruler of Belham is.
00:32:07Leaving me and Shaw Corp
00:32:08will be the biggest mistake
00:32:10you ever make in your life.
00:32:12I'll be there
00:32:13to witness your moment
00:32:14of glory.
00:32:17Let's go.
00:32:17Let's go.
00:32:22When someone survives
00:32:24a close call,
00:32:26they tend to celebrate
00:32:26their luck.
00:32:27They never realize
00:32:28what truly awaits them
00:32:29is an even deeper abyss.
00:32:40Mr. Shaw,
00:32:42you've bagged
00:32:42the Belham project.
00:32:44Congrats in advance.
00:32:45Yeah,
00:32:45word's spreading.
00:32:46Shaw Corp
00:32:47is guaranteed to win the bid.
00:32:48The congratulatory gifts
00:32:49are prepared.
00:32:50Well played,
00:32:51Mr. Shaw.
00:32:51this is a beautiful win.
00:32:55I owe it to everyone's
00:32:56hard work at the company.
00:32:58Mr. Shaw,
00:32:59I'm impressed.
00:33:00With Stella
00:33:01as the company's anchor,
00:33:03winning a project like this
00:33:04should be a walk in the park.
00:33:05Stella's practically
00:33:06Shaw Corp's secret weapon.
00:33:09I heard Mr. Lane
00:33:10from Lane Corp
00:33:10has tried several times
00:33:12to recruit her,
00:33:12but she turned him down
00:33:13every time.
00:33:14The company secured
00:33:15the project
00:33:15because me and Miss Kurt
00:33:17what's it got to do
00:33:19with Stella?
00:33:20Huh?
00:33:20Besides,
00:33:22she's just a pretty face.
00:33:24She disregarded company rules
00:33:25and has already been fired
00:33:27by me.
00:33:31You,
00:33:32you mean,
00:33:33you fired Stella Clark?
00:33:38You mean,
00:33:40you fired Stella Clark?
00:33:42Yeah.
00:33:43Is there a problem?
00:33:45No,
00:33:45not at all.
00:33:46If there's one person
00:33:49I should thank the most
00:33:51for securing this project,
00:33:52it's my secretary,
00:33:53Miss Kurt.
00:33:55Yes,
00:33:55yes,
00:33:56Mr. Shaw,
00:33:56you're right.
00:33:57Mrs. Kurt looks like
00:33:58someone who's meticulous
00:33:59and reliable.
00:34:00Mr. Shaw,
00:34:00you really have an eye
00:34:01for talent.
00:34:03Well then,
00:34:04Mr. Shaw,
00:34:05I'll get going.
00:34:05Go and find out
00:34:11where Stella is.
00:34:13No matter the cost,
00:34:14bring her into our company.
00:34:16Yes,
00:34:16double her annual salary
00:34:18if that's what it takes.
00:34:19Got it?
00:34:22Wendy,
00:34:23I already bought
00:34:24that limited edition bag
00:34:25you love.
00:34:26Once the bid results
00:34:27are announced,
00:34:28we'll go pick it up.
00:34:29Really?
00:34:30Thank you,
00:34:31Mr. Shaw.
00:34:32You're so good to me.
00:34:33From today on,
00:34:35Shaw Corp
00:34:36will completely
00:34:36cut ties with Stella.
00:34:39Everyone will know
00:34:40that Shaw Corp's success
00:34:41has always belonged
00:34:42to the two of us.
00:34:47Ladies and gentlemen,
00:34:49we're about to announce
00:34:50the final winning company
00:34:52of the Balan Project.
00:34:55Wendy,
00:34:56come up on stage with me.
00:34:59Mr. Shaw,
00:35:00later,
00:35:01I'll celebrate
00:35:02with you properly.
00:35:04You can do
00:35:05whatever you want to me.
00:35:07The winning company
00:35:09of the Balan Project
00:35:11is Lane Corp.
00:35:17Shouldn't the winning bit
00:35:42have gone to Shaw Corp?
00:35:43Why did it go to Lane Corp?
00:35:44Exactly.
00:35:45You must have made a mistake.
00:35:47It's Lane Corp's
00:35:47where Stella is.
00:35:49See for yourself.
00:35:50It's written clearly here.
00:35:53Stella?
00:35:54Yes.
00:35:55The Balan Project
00:35:56was awarded to Stella
00:35:57personally.
00:35:58Since Stella left Shaw Group
00:35:59and joined Lane Group,
00:36:01the winning company
00:36:02is naturally Lane Group.
00:36:03we're one step too late.
00:36:05We're one step too late.
00:36:07In the end,
00:36:08Stella still got recruited
00:36:09by Zach.
00:36:10Lane Corp snagged
00:36:11the biggest bid
00:36:12right after she joined.
00:36:13Stella is really
00:36:14the ace in the hole.
00:36:16Jacob has
00:36:17made a massive mistake.
00:36:19He actually kicked out
00:36:20the ace card
00:36:21he was holding.
00:36:22But that was
00:36:22one hell of a twist
00:36:25for the bid to flip tonight.
00:36:26Looks like Shaw Corp
00:36:28is about to crash.
00:36:29Mr. Shaw,
00:36:31do you think Stella
00:36:32is still holding a grudge
00:36:33over what happened before?
00:36:35Is that why she handed over
00:36:36the R&D results
00:36:37to Lane Corp?
00:36:38And helped them
00:36:39win the bid?
00:36:40That was the entire
00:36:41company's work.
00:36:43My colleagues and I
00:36:44poured our hearts into it.
00:36:46How could Stella do this?
00:36:50Stella?
00:36:54Yes?
00:36:57Yes?
00:36:57Well, well.
00:37:00Stella,
00:37:01you're really something.
00:37:03Leaking company secrets
00:37:05to our rival?
00:37:06Aren't you afraid
00:37:07of going to jail for this?
00:37:08Someone's going to prison.
00:37:09But it won't be me.
00:37:11What?
00:37:12Yesterday's events
00:37:13didn't stop you?
00:37:15Wasn't it Mr. Shaw
00:37:17and Miss Kurt
00:37:18who did the hit and run
00:37:19on West Loop?
00:37:20Yeah.
00:37:21I heard the victim
00:37:22ended up in a coma.
00:37:23Oh my goodness.
00:37:25Mr. Shaw's got several
00:37:26losses against him now.
00:37:27Who knows?
00:37:28Any day now
00:37:29he could be headed to jail.
00:37:31Stella.
00:37:33Are you really planning
00:37:35to break things off
00:37:36as Mr. Shaw?
00:37:37Mr. Shaw used to
00:37:38be a mentor to you.
00:37:40How could you take
00:37:41the company's research
00:37:43and use them in a bid?
00:37:45I'm using my own research
00:37:46for the bid.
00:37:47What's it got to do
00:37:48with you?
00:37:49Stella.
00:37:50Are you addicted to lying?
00:37:53I know.
00:37:54You've always had it out
00:37:55for Wendy.
00:37:56That's why you targeted
00:37:57her at work,
00:37:58singled her out,
00:37:59and even stole her credit.
00:38:01Fine.
00:38:02I can chalk that up
00:38:03to jealousy
00:38:03and let it slide.
00:38:06But this time,
00:38:07the Belham Project
00:38:08is no small matter.
00:38:10It concerns
00:38:10the company's survival.
00:38:12If you return
00:38:12the bid documents now
00:38:14and admit your mistake,
00:38:15I might consider
00:38:16forgiving you.
00:38:17Otherwise,
00:38:19I'll call the police
00:38:20and have you charged
00:38:21with stealing
00:38:22company's secrets.
00:38:26Then go ahead
00:38:27and sue me.
00:38:31Then go ahead
00:38:32and sue me.
00:38:33However,
00:38:34and here are my research logs
00:38:36and patent documents.
00:38:38These documents
00:38:39can prove
00:38:39the Belham Project
00:38:41was secured
00:38:41by me alone
00:38:42with nothing to do
00:38:44with Shaw Corp.
00:38:46As far as I know,
00:38:48under intellectual property law,
00:38:50any independently
00:38:51developed formula
00:38:52completed while employed
00:38:53at a company
00:38:54belong entirely
00:38:55to the individual
00:38:55as long as
00:38:56no company resources
00:38:57are used.
00:38:58So basically,
00:38:59even if you do sue me,
00:39:01you'll only lose
00:39:01more badly.
00:39:03You must have
00:39:04falsified everything.
00:39:05What formula?
00:39:07You obviously
00:39:07copied it from us.
00:39:09Lay a hand on her again
00:39:11and I'll have you
00:39:13out of this bed meeting.
00:39:14Oh well.
00:39:19Stella,
00:39:20you think you can
00:39:21turn things around
00:39:22with his support?
00:39:23Dream on!
00:39:25Mr. Shaw,
00:39:26I invest in talent,
00:39:28not nepotism.
00:39:31Sounds like you're just
00:39:32projecting your own
00:39:34faults here.
00:39:35Holy crap!
00:39:36What's going on?
00:39:38Two well-known CEOs
00:39:39in the industry
00:39:40are actually going at it
00:39:41face-to-face.
00:39:42I'm sure everyone
00:39:45is aware
00:39:46of Stella's capability
00:39:47in the industry,
00:39:48so there is no need
00:39:49for me to say
00:39:50anything anymore.
00:39:52Mr. Shaw,
00:39:53if you are fixated
00:39:54on losing hand,
00:39:56you'll miss
00:39:56the real winning card.
00:40:00Ladies and gentlemen,
00:40:01now it's time
00:40:02to congratulate
00:40:03Lane Corp
00:40:04on their win.
00:40:15Gone 10 minutes
00:40:16and you were fired.
00:40:18That's ridiculous.
00:40:20It's easy
00:40:21to make accusations.
00:40:23Once love is gone,
00:40:25nothing you do
00:40:25is right.
00:40:26So,
00:40:28are you really
00:40:29planning to end
00:40:30with Jacob?
00:40:32Not planning.
00:40:33I have to.
00:40:35But you worked
00:40:36together for 10 years
00:40:37and almost got married.
00:40:39Can you really
00:40:39walk away like that?
00:40:43If you spent a lot
00:40:44of money
00:40:45on a plane ticket
00:40:46and an hour
00:40:47before takeoff
00:40:48you found out
00:40:49the plane
00:40:49would definitely crash,
00:40:51would you still
00:40:52get on it?
00:40:53No.
00:40:56I'm not a fool either.
00:41:11Ever since
00:41:12Wendy joined
00:41:12the company,
00:41:14Jacob has been
00:41:14going out of his way
00:41:15to protect her.
00:41:16Whether it was
00:41:17my fault or not,
00:41:18all it took
00:41:19was one word
00:41:19from her
00:41:20and he'd blame
00:41:21me for everything.
00:41:22I worked non-stop
00:41:23for 24 hours
00:41:24and got fired
00:41:25for stepping out
00:41:26for 10 minutes.
00:41:27He even gave her
00:41:28credit for the
00:41:29project I finished.
00:41:31And you know
00:41:32what happened next?
00:41:34Don't mention him
00:41:35in front of me again.
00:41:36It pisses me off.
00:41:39Are you ordering me?
00:41:41Because I'm
00:41:41your boss now.
00:41:43Didn't you say
00:41:43you'd find a foreign
00:41:44specialist to fix
00:41:45my voice?
00:41:46Or do you actually
00:41:48enjoy hearing
00:41:49this hoarse sound
00:41:50all day?
00:41:52rest assured
00:41:55I will cure
00:41:57your voice
00:41:58and help you
00:41:59get revenge.
00:42:02Whatever Jacob
00:42:02owes you,
00:42:04I'll make him
00:42:04pay it back
00:42:0510 times over.
00:42:11I just showed you
00:42:12the independent
00:42:13project team.
00:42:15What do you think?
00:42:16Not bad.
00:42:18It's small,
00:42:19but everything's
00:42:20in place.
00:42:20What you saw
00:42:21just now
00:42:22wasn't all of it.
00:42:23I've got another
00:42:24surprise for you.
00:42:25Huh?
00:42:32Mr. Shaw.
00:42:34Mr. Shaw.
00:42:36What's going on?
00:42:37The court threw out
00:42:38my case against
00:42:39Stella.
00:42:40The formula
00:42:41was ruled
00:42:42her own work.
00:42:43So it's entirely
00:42:44hers.
00:42:44The lawsuit
00:42:45was a total
00:42:46bust.
00:42:46Looks like
00:42:47she was
00:42:47fully prepared.
00:42:50She played
00:42:51it so well
00:42:51that even
00:42:52the judges
00:42:52bought it.
00:42:53I underestimated
00:42:54her.
00:42:55She never
00:42:56focuses on
00:42:56the job,
00:42:57only on schemes
00:42:58and dirty tricks.
00:42:59Does that mean
00:43:00we have no way
00:43:02to deal with her?
00:43:03Of course
00:43:04there is a way.
00:43:05If suing her
00:43:06won't work,
00:43:07I'll find another
00:43:08way to ruin
00:43:09her.
00:43:10And Zach Lane
00:43:11can go down
00:43:12with her too.
00:43:15Ah.
00:43:16Bad news,
00:43:17Mr. Shaw.
00:43:18A group of
00:43:18core R&D staff
00:43:19just quit all
00:43:20at once.
00:43:21We're totally
00:43:22under staff now.
00:43:24What did you
00:43:24say?
00:43:27Come in.
00:43:34Miss Clark!
00:43:36Why are you
00:43:37all here?
00:43:38Miss Clark,
00:43:39we all came
00:43:40because of you.
00:43:41We really
00:43:41respect and
00:43:42admire you.
00:43:43Ever since
00:43:43you left,
00:43:44Lane Corp
00:43:45has been a mess.
00:43:46We don't
00:43:46want to stay
00:43:47there.
00:43:47Miss Clark,
00:43:48I'll never
00:43:48forget the
00:43:49days working
00:43:50on projects
00:43:51with you.
00:43:51Yeah,
00:43:52you gave us
00:43:52a drive to
00:43:53keep going.
00:43:54Even overtime
00:43:54felt rewarding.
00:43:57Since you're
00:43:58all here,
00:43:59give it your
00:43:59all.
00:44:00Your hard
00:44:01work will
00:44:01pay off.
00:44:02Yes!
00:44:03Guys,
00:44:04a 2025
00:44:04product launch
00:44:06is coming
00:44:06soon.
00:44:07This is our
00:44:08first big
00:44:09fight.
00:44:10And I'm
00:44:11counting on you.
00:44:13Miss Tulane,
00:44:14don't worry.
00:44:14With Miss Clark
00:44:15here,
00:44:16no matter how
00:44:16hard this fight
00:44:17is,
00:44:18we'll win.
00:44:20Stella.
00:44:21It must be
00:44:22her.
00:44:23Mr. Shaw,
00:44:24what do we do
00:44:24now?
00:44:25The R&D
00:44:26department is
00:44:26basically paralyzed
00:44:27and the product
00:44:28launches around
00:44:29the corner.
00:44:30We don't even
00:44:31have a new
00:44:32product.
00:44:33How would I
00:44:34know what to
00:44:34do?
00:44:36Don't panic.
00:44:38You still have
00:44:39with me.
00:44:41Wendy,
00:44:42Shaw Corp's
00:44:42future depends
00:44:44on you.
00:44:45Mr. Shaw,
00:44:46don't worry.
00:44:47With me here,
00:44:48I will let you
00:44:49loose.
00:44:49Dad.
00:45:02Jacob,
00:45:03when are you
00:45:04coming back?
00:45:05You didn't come
00:45:06home for Thanksgiving
00:45:06and your mom
00:45:07complained for days.
00:45:09Dad,
00:45:10we've been so busy
00:45:11with the projects.
00:45:13Are projects
00:45:14more than
00:45:15your family?
00:45:16I...
00:45:18When exactly
00:45:19are you going
00:45:19to get married?
00:45:20You can't keep
00:45:21stalling forever.
00:45:23People will
00:45:23start talking.
00:45:25I've been thinking.
00:45:26Stella is really
00:45:27an incredible woman.
00:45:30There's no way
00:45:31you'll find anyone
00:45:32like her.
00:45:33You should marry
00:45:33her sooner.
00:45:35Dad,
00:45:36actually,
00:45:37where...
00:45:37I want you
00:45:38to slowly take
00:45:39over our family
00:45:40business.
00:45:42I've poured my
00:45:43whole life
00:45:44into the company.
00:45:45But you're
00:45:46hot-headed
00:45:47and impulsive.
00:45:49Without Stella
00:45:50keeping you
00:45:51grounded,
00:45:52I can't put
00:45:53my mind
00:45:54at ease.
00:45:55I'm celebrating
00:45:57my birthday
00:45:57in two days.
00:45:59We'll be having
00:46:00a family dinner.
00:46:02Bring Stella over.
00:46:04Everyone wants
00:46:05to meet you two.
00:46:07At that dinner,
00:46:08I'll officially
00:46:09announce that I'm
00:46:10handing the
00:46:11family business
00:46:12over to you
00:46:13early.
00:46:14Alright,
00:46:15Dad.
00:46:17I'll bring her.
00:46:20Come with me
00:46:20to the family
00:46:21dinner.
00:46:22I can forget
00:46:22what happened
00:46:23with the
00:46:23Belham project.
00:46:27Don't worry.
00:46:29I'll definitely
00:46:30be there.
00:46:39What's the matter?
00:46:40That's Jacob's
00:46:42father.
00:46:43He invited me
00:46:44to the family
00:46:44dinner.
00:46:46You're going.
00:46:49Back when
00:46:50Shaw Corp
00:46:50was just founded,
00:46:52he gave me a loan
00:46:52during a really
00:46:53tough time.
00:46:54It's what got
00:46:55the company
00:46:56through its crisis.
00:46:58So no matter
00:46:59how bad things
00:47:00are between
00:47:00me and Jacob,
00:47:01I have to repay
00:47:03that favor.
00:47:05Go ahead.
00:47:06Just remember,
00:47:08you owe him
00:47:08a favor,
00:47:09not your heart.
00:47:12You also
00:47:13helped me
00:47:13when I was
00:47:13struggling.
00:47:15So,
00:47:16what do I owe you?
00:47:20There's no rush
00:47:21to pay me back.
00:47:23I prefer
00:47:24settling things
00:47:25slowly.
00:47:26One text and you
00:47:47came running.
00:47:48Stella,
00:47:49I knew you
00:47:50wouldn't hold out
00:47:51for long.
00:47:51What?
00:47:55Without Zach,
00:47:56that lap dog
00:47:57protecting you,
00:47:58you even had
00:47:59to drive yourself.
00:48:00I can manage
00:48:01on my own,
00:48:02but you might
00:48:03not keep up
00:48:04with the act
00:48:04alone.
00:48:06I'm warning you.
00:48:08Say one wrong
00:48:09word in front
00:48:09of my dad later,
00:48:10and I won't let
00:48:11you walk out
00:48:12that door.
00:48:13Don't worry.
00:48:14I'm not wasting
00:48:15words at your
00:48:15family dinner.
00:48:17But if someone
00:48:17insisted on
00:48:18humiliating themselves,
00:48:20I won't stop them.
00:48:21David.
00:48:29Stella,
00:48:30long time no see.
00:48:31I knew you
00:48:32would come
00:48:32for my sake.
00:48:34Long time no see.
00:48:36Thanks for
00:48:36inviting me.
00:48:38Come,
00:48:39take a seat.
00:48:44Jacob has a good eye.
00:48:47Stella is the
00:48:48most capable
00:48:49woman I know.
00:48:50Shaw Corp
00:48:51wouldn't be
00:48:52where it is
00:48:52today without
00:48:53her.
00:48:54Dad,
00:48:55you're exaggerating.
00:48:57Shaw Corp has
00:48:58done well
00:48:58these past few
00:48:59years.
00:49:00But it's not all
00:49:01because of
00:49:01Stella.
00:49:03Jacob
00:49:03deserves a lot
00:49:05of credit too.
00:49:07Jacob may be
00:49:08the face of
00:49:08the company,
00:49:09but Stella
00:49:10is the backbone
00:49:12holding it
00:49:13together.
00:49:13Come,
00:49:15Stella.
00:49:15let's have a drink.
00:49:17Cheers.
00:49:18Cheers.
00:49:19So you're
00:49:20Stella.
00:49:21You're young.
00:49:23But how come
00:49:24I don't see
00:49:25any of your
00:49:26family here?
00:49:27what business
00:49:29are your
00:49:30family in?
00:49:32They're farmers.
00:49:34They don't run
00:49:35a business.
00:49:36You know,
00:49:36Jacob was born
00:49:37with a silver
00:49:38spoon
00:49:39and received
00:49:40the best education
00:49:41since he was
00:49:42young.
00:49:43Stella,
00:49:44you're not one
00:49:45of those country
00:49:46girls
00:49:46trying to latch
00:49:48onto a wealthy
00:49:49city guy,
00:49:50are you?
00:49:50enough.
00:49:58A person's
00:50:00worth isn't
00:50:00judged by their
00:50:01family background.
00:50:02When we choose
00:50:03a daughter-in-law,
00:50:04we don't care
00:50:05how rich her
00:50:06family is.
00:50:07We only look
00:50:08at her ability
00:50:08and character.
00:50:10Back when Shaw
00:50:10Corp was about
00:50:11to go under,
00:50:13Stella carried
00:50:14all the pressure
00:50:15and saved
00:50:17the company.
00:50:18Nobody else
00:50:19but her
00:50:20stepped up
00:50:20like that.
00:50:22David,
00:50:23I get what
00:50:23you're saying,
00:50:24but people
00:50:25are talking.
00:50:26They're all
00:50:27laughing at us
00:50:28for picking
00:50:28a country girl,
00:50:30saying Jacob
00:50:31has poor
00:50:31judgment.
00:50:32I'm just
00:50:33worried about
00:50:34his reputation.
00:50:36Poor
00:50:36judgment?
00:50:39Well,
00:50:40that's not
00:50:40entirely
00:50:41wrong.
00:50:43Stella?
00:50:45Shut up.
00:50:47I didn't
00:50:48mention any
00:50:48names.
00:50:49Why get
00:50:50so wrecked
00:50:50up?
00:50:51If you
00:50:51weren't so
00:50:51incompetent,
00:50:52we wouldn't
00:50:53have needed
00:50:53Wendy to
00:50:53step in.
00:50:54How could
00:50:55you mock
00:50:55her?
00:50:56Jacob,
00:50:57you know
00:50:58very well
00:50:58how much
00:50:59Stella's done
00:50:59for the
00:51:00company.
00:51:01How can
00:51:01you call
00:51:02her
00:51:02incompetent?
00:51:03And who
00:51:03exactly is
00:51:04Wendy?
00:51:06Dad,
00:51:07Wendy is
00:51:08my assistant
00:51:08and now
00:51:09a key member
00:51:10of the
00:51:10company.
00:51:11She works
00:51:11hard and
00:51:12keeps improving.
00:51:13Way better
00:51:14than those
00:51:14who only
00:51:15flaunt
00:51:15their
00:51:15seniority
00:51:16and talk
00:51:17big.
00:51:19Jacob,
00:51:20what's
00:51:21gotten into
00:51:21you?
00:51:23You're
00:51:23getting more
00:51:24and more
00:51:24out of line.
00:51:26I know
00:51:27Stella has
00:51:28always given
00:51:29in to you
00:51:29and put up
00:51:30with you,
00:51:31but you've
00:51:32gone too
00:51:33far.
00:51:34Pour Stella
00:51:34a drink and
00:51:35apologize to her.
00:51:37No need.
00:51:38Is there
00:51:39something going on
00:51:40between you
00:51:40two?
00:51:41Dad,
00:51:42we're
00:51:42fine.
00:51:44Stella,
00:51:44tell me
00:51:45honestly,
00:51:46what is
00:51:47really
00:51:47happening
00:51:47between
00:51:48you two?
00:51:50David,
00:51:52you have
00:51:52the right
00:51:53to know
00:51:53the truth.
00:51:58I came
00:51:59to repay
00:52:00your favor
00:52:01from long
00:52:01ago.
00:52:03As for
00:52:03Jacob and
00:52:04Shaw Corp,
00:52:05they have
00:52:06nothing to do
00:52:07with me
00:52:07anymore.
00:52:10Jacob,
00:52:11what did
00:52:13you do
00:52:14to make
00:52:15Stella say
00:52:16that?
00:52:18Stella,
00:52:19I know
00:52:21how patient
00:52:21and kind
00:52:22you've been
00:52:23with Jacob,
00:52:24so please,
00:52:26for my sake,
00:52:27don't be
00:52:28mad at him.
00:52:29He might
00:52:30have a temper,
00:52:30but he's
00:52:31not a bad
00:52:31person.
00:52:34David,
00:52:35I'm not
00:52:36throwing a fit.
00:52:38The company
00:52:38has already
00:52:39fired me.
00:52:40and my
00:52:42relationship
00:52:42with Jacob
00:52:43is over.
00:52:46Stella?
00:52:47Fired?
00:52:48What does
00:52:49she mean?
00:52:50Jacob,
00:52:51what did
00:52:52you do?
00:52:53How could
00:52:53you fire
00:52:54Stella?
00:52:56Dad,
00:52:57it's not
00:52:57what you think.
00:52:58I did it
00:52:59for the company.
00:53:00You ungrateful
00:53:00brat!
00:53:02Calm down.
00:53:03What right
00:53:04do you have
00:53:04to fire her?
00:53:06You're completely
00:53:07out of line.
00:53:08You think
00:53:09becoming chairman
00:53:09makes you all that?
00:53:11Stella gave that
00:53:12seat up for you.
00:53:13How do I not
00:53:14have the right?
00:53:15Dad,
00:53:16do you know
00:53:16what she did
00:53:17to Wendy
00:53:17at the office?
00:53:18Wendy?
00:53:20That woman
00:53:21again.
00:53:22You fired
00:53:22Stella
00:53:23because of her,
00:53:23right?
00:53:24Dad,
00:53:25don't jump
00:53:26to conclusions.
00:53:27Wendy's
00:53:27a great woman.
00:53:28She's not
00:53:29any worse
00:53:29than Stella.
00:53:30I'll bring her
00:53:31to meet you
00:53:31another day.
00:53:32How can she
00:53:33compare to
00:53:34Stella?
00:53:34You're blind.
00:53:36You're blind
00:53:37and you've
00:53:38completely
00:53:38lost your head.
00:53:40Stella,
00:53:41we've wronged you.
00:53:45Jacob,
00:53:46you've thrown
00:53:49away the best
00:53:51thing our family
00:53:52ever had.
00:53:54Everyone,
00:53:55I won't deal
00:53:56with the company
00:53:57anymore.
00:53:57As for the
00:53:59family's assets,
00:54:00your mom and I
00:54:01will continue
00:54:02handling them.
00:54:03Jacob,
00:54:04you made
00:54:06your own bed.
00:54:07Now,
00:54:08lie in it!
00:54:21Stella?
00:54:24Stop right there.
00:54:25Are you happy
00:54:28now?
00:54:28Dad told
00:54:29everyone he's
00:54:30done with
00:54:30the company
00:54:31and he's
00:54:32taking back
00:54:33what's rightfully
00:54:33mine.
00:54:34Is this what
00:54:35you wanted
00:54:35all along?
00:54:37This was
00:54:38your choice.
00:54:39Blame
00:54:39yourself.
00:54:40What's with
00:54:41that attitude?
00:54:43Jacob,
00:54:43you're just
00:54:44too kind.
00:54:45Letting a
00:54:46brat like her
00:54:46run all over
00:54:47you.
00:54:48Honestly,
00:54:49she's just a
00:54:50nobody from
00:54:50the countryside.
00:54:53She should
00:54:53be grateful
00:54:54to you
00:54:54for getting
00:54:55this far.
00:54:56If you ask
00:54:57me,
00:54:58Uncle David
00:54:58has completely
00:54:59lost it.
00:55:00You were right
00:55:00to fire her,
00:55:01Jacob.
00:55:01She never
00:55:01deserved to
00:55:02be Shaw
00:55:02Corp's VP.
00:55:03If you're
00:55:04unfit for the
00:55:04job,
00:55:05you deserve
00:55:05to be fired.
00:55:07Step aside.
00:55:09How cocky.
00:55:10You think
00:55:11you're still
00:55:11the VP?
00:55:13Please!
00:55:14You're nothing
00:55:15but a
00:55:16discarded mutt.
00:55:17Miss Clark,
00:55:24what a
00:55:24coincidence.
00:55:25I didn't
00:55:25expect to
00:55:26see you
00:55:26here.
00:55:31Miss Clark,
00:55:32I heard
00:55:32you're leading
00:55:33the Bellum
00:55:33Project.
00:55:34I've got a
00:55:35big deal
00:55:35on my side.
00:55:36I'd love
00:55:37for you to
00:55:37come on
00:55:38board.
00:55:38Should we
00:55:38set up a
00:55:39time to
00:55:39discuss
00:55:39working
00:55:40together?
00:55:40I won't
00:55:41beat around
00:55:41the bush.
00:55:42Would you
00:55:42consider
00:55:43joining our
00:55:43company?
00:55:44As long
00:55:44as you
00:55:45say yes,
00:55:45we'll
00:55:46double your
00:55:46salary.
00:55:47The shares
00:55:47are negotiable.
00:55:50Why is
00:55:51she so
00:55:51in demand?
00:55:53Why would
00:55:53they want
00:55:54to fire
00:55:54nobody?
00:55:55Are you
00:55:56people
00:55:56out of
00:55:57your
00:55:57minds?
00:56:10You got
00:56:11here real
00:56:11fast?
00:56:12Of course.
00:56:16you got
00:56:16to
00:56:17go.
00:56:18You got
00:56:18to
00:56:19go.
00:56:19Gentlemen,
00:56:20you don't
00:56:21stand a
00:56:21chance.
00:56:27She's
00:56:27with me.
00:56:28One summons
00:56:29in lane
00:56:30corp,
00:56:30they never
00:56:31leave.
00:56:32Let's
00:56:32go.
00:56:32go.
00:56:43Hello?
00:56:44Mr. Shaw,
00:56:44terrible news.
00:56:45All the raw
00:56:45materials for our
00:56:46product are
00:56:47ruined.
00:56:48Come back and
00:56:48take a look.
00:56:49Did you
00:56:49say?
00:56:58You're all
00:56:59useless.
00:57:00How can you
00:57:00mess up the raw
00:57:01materials?
00:57:01It wasn't an
00:57:02operational issue.
00:57:03The formula was
00:57:04the problem.
00:57:05How could the
00:57:05formula be
00:57:06wrong?
00:57:07Wasn't it left
00:57:07by Stella?
00:57:09We're down to
00:57:10the final
00:57:10preservative.
00:57:11But only
00:57:11Ms. Clark
00:57:12knows the
00:57:12exact ratio.
00:57:13We can't
00:57:14get it right
00:57:15at all.
00:57:16Yes,
00:57:17without this
00:57:17step,
00:57:18the raw
00:57:18materials will
00:57:19spoil.
00:57:19The whole
00:57:20batch will
00:57:20be ruined.
00:57:21So you're
00:57:22safe.
00:57:23We can't
00:57:23make this
00:57:24product without
00:57:25Stella?
00:57:26We're out
00:57:26of time.
00:57:28The launch is
00:57:29the day
00:57:29after tomorrow.
00:57:30We can't
00:57:31remake the
00:57:32product.
00:57:33Without the
00:57:33new product,
00:57:34we have
00:57:34nothing for
00:57:35the launch.
00:57:36What do we
00:57:37do now?
00:57:38Wendy,
00:57:39what's wrong?
00:57:41Who's going to
00:57:42explain to me
00:57:42what exactly
00:57:44happened here?
00:57:48Mr. Shaw,
00:57:50I never
00:57:50expected
00:57:51Stella
00:57:52to do something
00:57:54like swapping
00:57:55materials.
00:57:56What do you
00:57:56mean?
00:57:57I checked
00:57:57the surveillance,
00:57:58Mr. Shaw.
00:57:59The footage
00:58:00shows someone
00:58:01sneaking in
00:58:02at night to
00:58:02mess with
00:58:03the materials.
00:58:04Who else
00:58:04could it be
00:58:04other than
00:58:05her?
00:58:05You're
00:58:06saying she
00:58:07did this
00:58:07on purpose?
00:58:08Yes,
00:58:09she's the
00:58:10only one
00:58:11with the
00:58:11motive.
00:58:12She's been
00:58:13holding a
00:58:13grudge against
00:58:14us ever
00:58:15since she
00:58:15got fired,
00:58:16so she
00:58:17sabotaged
00:58:17us on
00:58:18purpose.
00:58:18She wants
00:58:19Shaw Corp
00:58:19to look
00:58:20bad at
00:58:20a product
00:58:21launch,
00:58:21and she
00:58:22even joined
00:58:23Lane Corp.
00:58:24If Shaw
00:58:25Corp
00:58:26stumbles,
00:58:27Lane Corp
00:58:27can steal
00:58:28the spotlight
00:58:28at the
00:58:29launch.
00:58:30Stella
00:58:30Clark,
00:58:31good job.
00:58:34Well done.
00:58:38Mr. Shaw,
00:58:39don't worry.
00:58:41I'll handle
00:58:42this problem.
00:58:44It won't
00:58:44affect
00:58:45the product
00:58:45launch.
00:58:47Thank goodness
00:58:47you're here,
00:58:48Wendy.
00:58:54Bring the
00:58:57preservative
00:58:58over.
00:58:58But,
00:58:59without knowing
00:59:00the exact
00:59:00ratio,
00:59:00heading it
00:59:01blindly
00:59:01could be
00:59:02a disaster.
00:59:02Why worry?
00:59:04The final
00:59:05product won't
00:59:05affect the
00:59:06core
00:59:06effectiveness
00:59:07at all.
00:59:08And mostly
00:59:08just narrows
00:59:09the safety
00:59:09margin.
00:59:10But what
00:59:10if we
00:59:11overdo it?
00:59:11Could it
00:59:12be too
00:59:12harsh?
00:59:12As long
00:59:13as the
00:59:13results
00:59:13are stunning
00:59:14enough.
00:59:15Who cares
00:59:16about some
00:59:16minor side
00:59:17effects?
00:59:18As long
00:59:18as we
00:59:19get through
00:59:19the launch,
00:59:21we
00:59:21win.
00:59:21Besides,
00:59:25the chance
00:59:25of this
00:59:26going wrong
00:59:27is less
00:59:28than 1
00:59:28in 10,000.
00:59:29Only
00:59:30that stubborn
00:59:31Stella
00:59:31would tweak
00:59:33the key
00:59:34ratio
00:59:35to 8
00:59:36decimal
00:59:37places
00:59:37just for
00:59:39a 1
00:59:39in 10,000
00:59:40chance.
00:59:40But what
00:59:41if something
00:59:42really goes
00:59:43wrong?
00:59:43I said
00:59:44it'll be
00:59:44fine.
00:59:46It's on
00:59:47me if
00:59:47anything
00:59:47happens.
00:59:49You just
00:59:49need to
00:59:49stay
00:59:50quiet.
00:59:50understand?
01:00:00I'll
01:00:01risk it
01:00:02once.

01:01:38It's not just me.
01:01:39Everyone's been working hard.
01:01:41Ms. Clark
