00:00:00I should tell Lawrence I'm pregnant, but it might mean the end of our relationship.
00:00:30What a stranger, just what it is, poor thing, where, right here, I think.
00:00:59You know we have mates to do chores, right?
00:01:01Right, your hands are too color good.
00:01:06I don't want you, right here, right now.
00:01:21Hey, my lord, you have to tell me something.
00:01:28Okay.
00:01:29I actually went for a chocolate.
00:01:35Sir, we've located a woman who saved you five years ago.
00:01:52Um, yeah, okay, I'll be right there.
00:01:59Are you leaving already?
00:02:04Yeah.
00:02:05It's urgent, I gotta run.
00:02:09Miss Quinn, it's time for you to leave, and here's your compensation as usual.
00:02:22Miss Quinn, must I remind you that your arrangement with Mr. Roy is strictly contractual, and you
00:02:31are not permitted to loiter on his property in his absence.
00:02:35And please remember to take your contraceptives.
00:02:40Do not even think about trapping Mr. Roy with a bastard child.
00:02:48Failure to comply?
00:02:49Well, you are aware of the $5 million penalty.
00:03:07Miss Quinn, your mother is about to begin her next round of treatment.
00:03:10Please ensure that the overdue bill is cleared before the cycle starts.
00:03:25Mom, I have a new dance choreography that you will love.
00:03:32Please get better, and come see me dance.
00:03:38You know, I'm becoming a mother soon, and I'm so lost.
00:03:47I only became Lawrence's contract lover to cover the medical bill, and I could never think
00:03:53that I could actually truly fall in love with them.
00:03:56I want to keep this baby.
00:03:58I want what Lawrence and I have to be real, not just physical, but love for each other.
00:04:07Oh shit!
00:04:20Oh, shit!
00:04:41Sir, you're incredibly fortunate.
00:04:45Not only did that lady save her life on the spot,
00:04:47she also donated her blood.
00:04:49She even shares a rare blood type.
00:04:52Well, where is she now?
00:04:53She disappeared without any trace.
00:04:55This is what she left behind.
00:04:59The name embroidered on it is Torn.
00:05:02But we know one thing.
00:05:04This belonged to her.
00:05:06Okay, then find the best color to fix these.
00:05:09And find her for me.
00:05:11Yes, sir.
00:05:15Please let me find you.
00:05:19Shhh.
00:05:21So, didn't you have something that you wanted to tell me earlier?
00:05:25Um, well, actually, so my dance studio has a bunch of these new kids,
00:05:35including these adorable twins.
00:05:38Yes, and it got me thinking,
00:05:42do you even like kids?
00:05:46No, I hate the non-stop crying of children,
00:05:53but I was thinking now that it's time we terminate our contract.
00:05:59Uh, because I'm getting engaged.
00:06:13Oh, my beautiful sister, I am thrilled to have you here for my engagement.
00:06:22Your engagement?
00:06:27Your engagement?
00:06:28We can't let Veronica know about Elena marrying Lawrence in her place,
00:06:32pretending to be his lifesaver.
00:06:34This wedding has to happen.
00:06:36Poor Elena.
00:06:37These are Veronica's shoes.
00:06:49Hello, Mr. Crowder.
00:06:51Hi.
00:06:51Hi.
00:06:51I'm Lawrence Roy.
00:06:53Listen, I believe your daughter,
00:06:56she saved me about five years ago today.
00:06:59Lawrence Roy?
00:07:00The young business tycoon of the Roy family?
00:07:03Yeah.
00:07:03What do you mean my daughter saved you?
00:07:05Well, I had a car.
00:07:06Mr. Roy, this is our daughter, Elena.
00:07:10Those are her shoes.
00:07:12You're Elena?
00:07:13Yeah.
00:07:13It's been forever trying to find you.
00:07:16Listen, I can't thank you guys enough in my words,
00:07:19so I'm here to repay you anything you guys want,
00:07:22whatever you desire.
00:07:24Anything?
00:07:25Yeah, if you want money, power,
00:07:28whatever you guys desire, I can give it to you.
00:07:31I want to be your wife.
00:07:33I want to be your wife.
00:07:39Sorry?
00:07:42I said, I want to be your wife.
00:07:46I'm sorry.
00:07:47I think you misunderstood what I'm trying to say.
00:07:48No, no.
00:07:48Lawrence, saving you five years ago
00:07:52was just the beginning of our fate.
00:07:56All I ask now is to be your wife.
00:07:59I can guarantee you and your family are set up financially,
00:08:07but as far as love goes, trying to have feelings, like...
00:08:11Lawrence, it's okay.
00:08:14So long as I can call you my husband,
00:08:16that's enough.
00:08:19Just wait, Lawrence.
00:08:20I'll make sure you fall in love with me.
00:08:22Well, congratulations on your engagement.
00:08:28Wait, who's the lucky guy?
00:08:31Is he here right now?
00:08:32No, no, no, no, no.
00:08:34But, oh my God, he's the total package.
00:08:37He's tall, handsome, successful,
00:08:39and from a very prestigious family.
00:08:43Veronica, how's your mom doing?
00:08:46My mom is still undergoing treatment right now.
00:08:49Those expenses.
00:08:52Do you have enough money?
00:08:53I could...
00:08:54Elena's wedding will need every penny we have.
00:08:56Dear, Elaine.
00:08:58Right, right.
00:09:00Weddings can be quite the hassle.
00:09:02Sweetie, can you stay a few more days
00:09:04and give us a hand?
00:09:05We can stay one night,
00:09:07but once the wedding guests start to arrive,
00:09:09it's going to get a little crowded.
00:09:12Well, I'll stay tonight,
00:09:14and I'll leave first thing in the morning tomorrow.
00:09:17No, no, stay a few more days for my sake.
00:09:20You can help me pick out my wedding dress tomorrow.
00:09:22It'll be like a fun little bonding experience,
00:09:25and you can meet my fiancée.
00:09:28Oh my God.
00:09:35This wedding dress looks like what's made for you.
00:09:38Veronica, my shoe needs a little bit of fixing.
00:09:40Can you help?
00:09:47Baby, you're here.
00:09:48Elena's fiancée's Lawrence?
00:09:51How could this happen?
00:09:53Why him?
00:09:56Who's this?
00:09:57This is my sister,
00:09:59and my maid of honor,
00:10:01and Veronica.
00:10:02This is my fiancée Lawrence.
00:10:06I have a great idea.
00:10:08You should try on dresses too over here.
00:10:09Oh, thank you.
00:10:12Yes.
00:10:14Okay, try this.
00:10:16Go.
00:10:17Go.
00:10:17Go.
00:10:27How did you get in here?
00:10:29Yeah, I didn't know.
00:10:30Why are you here?
00:10:32My sister's getting engaged,
00:10:34and I'm helping her.
00:10:36Why the hell are you here?
00:10:38I heard that.
00:10:38Yeah, your sister.
00:10:41It's really funny, actually,
00:10:42you said you'd believe that.
00:10:45Believe it or not,
00:10:47Elena's your fiancée.
00:10:51Come on.
00:10:53Why are you really here?
00:10:55Because you know,
00:10:57you know the contract
00:10:59isn't exactly off the table yet, right?
00:11:00Lauren's left.
00:11:07We're engaged.
00:11:08Come on.
00:11:10When did you read all those thrills?
00:11:13I don't have to tell you,
00:11:14but I will.
00:11:15I mean,
00:11:15there was
00:11:15a balcony,
00:11:18countless times in my bathroom,
00:11:19in my bathtub.
00:11:24My sister?
00:11:26Your fiancée's outside.
00:11:28Or do you want this
00:11:30to go public?
00:11:33You know she's
00:11:34in the bathroom, right?
00:11:36Right.
00:11:44Sorry.
00:11:45Have you seen the guy
00:11:46that was here?
00:11:52Orrin,
00:11:53stop.
00:11:55Stop, Orrin.
00:11:58That tailoring here,
00:12:17I tell you,
00:12:18is just not...
00:12:19It's terrible,
00:12:21isn't it?
00:12:21It doesn't even match
00:12:22your beauty at all.
00:12:24It's fine.
00:12:25We'll just find another place.
00:12:27Another time?
00:12:27Yeah?
00:12:28Yeah.
00:12:28Let's go then.
00:12:38I thought that wedding dress
00:12:39was pretty.
00:12:43Is Veronica
00:12:44really your sister?
00:12:46What's wrong?
00:12:48Do you two know each other?
00:12:50No.
00:12:50No,
00:12:51we just...
00:12:53I don't know,
00:12:54you guys just don't really
00:12:54look alike is all.
00:12:55Yeah.
00:12:56Well,
00:12:57we're worlds apart.
00:12:59You know,
00:12:59I'm a classy girl
00:13:00with refined tastes
00:13:02in arts and culture.
00:13:04I've been practicing
00:13:05classical ballet
00:13:05since I was a kid.
00:13:07But Veronica,
00:13:09she's all about money.
00:13:12And as a result,
00:13:13she works at
00:13:13all kinds of places.
00:13:15you know,
00:13:19bars,
00:13:21clubs,
00:13:22especially the ones
00:13:23where a woman
00:13:23perform erotic dances
00:13:24for men.
00:13:26It's just a hard knock
00:13:27life for her,
00:13:28I guess.
00:13:28Mr. Roy,
00:13:39that's Veronica Quinn,
00:13:41our newest performer.
00:13:42A one-in-a-million star,
00:13:44but just like every
00:13:45sob story
00:13:46you've heard around here,
00:13:48she has a sick mother
00:13:49and needs money urgently.
00:13:51Though short on cash
00:13:52and super popular,
00:13:54she keeps her distance.
00:13:56Our guests
00:13:58aren't particularly
00:13:59fans of that.
00:14:22Yeah,
00:14:22you're done here.
00:14:24What is my dancing
00:14:25not good enough for you?
00:14:26No, it's good.
00:14:28It's so good,
00:14:29I only want you
00:14:29to dance for me now.
00:14:31But,
00:14:32I don't even know
00:14:33your name.
00:14:35I'm Lawrence Roy,
00:14:36Veronica,
00:14:37and I'm gonna make sure
00:14:38you never have to pay
00:14:39for your moral again.
00:14:46Honey,
00:14:47what's wrong?
00:14:48Didn't you find
00:14:48a dress you like?
00:14:50There's something going on
00:14:51between Veronica
00:14:52and Lawrence.
00:14:52then don't let her
00:14:55show up at the
00:14:56engagement party.
00:14:57We can't risk
00:14:58everyone knowing
00:14:58about her.
00:14:59No.
00:15:01No,
00:15:01she has to come.
00:15:02She has always
00:15:03overshadowed me,
00:15:04and now I finally
00:15:05have the man
00:15:06of everyone's dreams.
00:15:08I just want to see her
00:15:09be the jealous one
00:15:10for once.
00:15:14Lisa,
00:15:15I should probably
00:15:16go now.
00:15:17And,
00:15:18Elena,
00:15:19congratulations.
00:15:19no,
00:15:23please don't leave.
00:15:25I mean,
00:15:25you have to come
00:15:25to my engagement party.
00:15:27You wouldn't miss
00:15:28my big day,
00:15:29right?
00:15:40Is that a pink diamond?
00:15:42Mr. Roy must
00:15:43really love you.
00:15:45It's gorgeous.
00:15:46I'm so jealous.
00:15:47Isn't it beautiful,
00:15:54Veronica?
00:15:56She could wear
00:15:57at least a pair
00:15:58of earrings
00:15:58not to look
00:15:59so out of displays.
00:16:00She probably
00:16:01couldn't afford it.
00:16:03Showing up
00:16:03to such a grand
00:16:04event like this?
00:16:06So tacky.
00:16:07Oh, no.
00:16:09My sister is
00:16:09pretty enough,
00:16:11even without
00:16:11the earrings.
00:16:12Oh,
00:16:17I'll be like
00:16:22I'm not custom-made.
00:16:24Ballet shoes.
00:16:25Look,
00:16:25I know you missed
00:16:26your performance
00:16:26because of me.
00:16:28Ballet shoes?
00:16:29When did Elena
00:16:30learn ballet?
00:16:31Five years ago,
00:16:32I missed the
00:16:33Flora Goddess audition
00:16:34for saving someone
00:16:35from a car accident.
00:16:37Consider this
00:16:37my apology.
00:16:38In fact,
00:16:40why don't you
00:16:40perform
00:16:41for all of us?
00:16:42How could I
00:16:43possibly dance ballet?
00:16:45Oh.
00:16:47Unfortunately,
00:16:48Elena injured
00:16:49her ankle
00:16:49during rehearsal
00:16:50this week.
00:16:52And I think
00:16:53it's best
00:16:53that we save
00:16:54her performance
00:16:55till the wedding.
00:16:57Yes.
00:16:58I'm so sorry,
00:17:00but I do think
00:17:01it's better
00:17:02if we save
00:17:02it for the wedding
00:17:03so we can
00:17:04share it
00:17:04with everyone
00:17:05together.
00:17:10Okay.
00:17:10We can't
00:17:12make up
00:17:12the skill,
00:17:13alright?
00:17:13We're just
00:17:14going to
00:17:14simplify
00:17:14the choreography.
00:17:16Okay,
00:17:16but no one
00:17:18can know
00:17:18that I don't
00:17:19know how to
00:17:19dance.
00:17:20Why?
00:17:20Why not?
00:17:21Because
00:17:22Lawrence likes
00:17:22girls who dance
00:17:23and he thinks
00:17:24I've been doing
00:17:24it my whole life.
00:17:26So,
00:17:26look,
00:17:26Raymond,
00:17:27I know
00:17:28that you've
00:17:28always liked
00:17:29Veronica,
00:17:29right?
00:17:30If you help
00:17:31me,
00:17:31I will do
00:17:32my absolute
00:17:33best
00:17:34to bring
00:17:35you two
00:17:35together,
00:17:35okay?
00:17:35Please?
00:17:36Please,
00:17:37please,
00:17:37please.
00:17:37Okay.
00:17:38everyone,
00:17:41please excuse
00:17:42Elena for
00:17:43her injuries
00:17:44and allow me
00:17:44the liberty
00:17:45to perform
00:17:45for you all.
00:17:47Ronnie,
00:17:48may I have
00:17:48this dance?
00:17:50It's been a
00:17:51while.
00:17:51I've missed
00:17:52you.
00:17:58It's been
00:17:58five years
00:17:59since our
00:17:59last rehearsal.
00:18:00It's a shame
00:18:00you don't
00:18:01perform anymore.
00:18:02We worked
00:18:03so well
00:18:03together.
00:18:05Would you
00:18:06ever return
00:18:06to the stage
00:18:07with me?
00:18:09You know,
00:18:10I really
00:18:11miss dancing,
00:18:13but I just
00:18:14don't think
00:18:16it's the
00:18:16right time
00:18:17right now.
00:18:18Ronnie,
00:18:18I've waited
00:18:18five years
00:18:19to ask you
00:18:19this.
00:18:22Are you
00:18:23single now?
00:18:23No.
00:18:35No.
00:18:37I don't
00:18:38know.
00:18:38I don't
00:18:39know.
00:18:39I don't
00:18:39know.
00:18:40I don't
00:18:40know.
00:18:40I don't
00:18:41know.
00:18:41I don't
00:18:41know.
00:18:41I don't
00:18:42know.
00:18:42I don't
00:18:43know.
00:18:43I don't
00:18:43know.
00:18:43I don't
00:18:43know.
00:18:43I don't
00:18:44know.
00:18:44Wow, Raymond, you and Veronica seem very well-acquainted.
00:19:04Yeah, um, me and Raymond have actually known each other for years.
00:19:10Ronnie was and still is my best partner.
00:19:13Yeah, I remember when they used to hang out all the time.
00:19:16I legit thought that Raymond was Veronica's boyfriend.
00:19:22Are you okay?
00:19:25Excuse me, sorry.
00:19:35What's your relationship with Raymond?
00:19:37It's really none of your business.
00:19:38Do I have to remind you that you can only dance for me?
00:19:40Do you have a same gifts to all of your girlfriends?
00:19:45All of my girlfriends?
00:19:46Are you jealous?
00:19:48Aren't you a damn joke?
00:19:49We can't be doing this.
00:19:51The contract is over.
00:19:52Okay, so then what?
00:19:53You're just trying to look for a new sponsor or something?
00:19:56You know who's Raymond?
00:19:57You know what you fucking love, Jalbini, don't you?
00:20:03You know, you're acting like this while you're about to my sister.
00:20:05Laurence, are you in here?
00:20:24Laurence, are you in here?
00:20:30Veronica, have you seen Laurence?
00:20:32No, I haven't seen him.
00:20:35Oh my god.
00:20:37What happened to your neck?
00:20:38Are you hurt?
00:20:39No, I'm not.
00:20:39I'm just a little tired.
00:20:40I'm going to go home if that's okay.
00:20:42Bye.
00:21:02Hey.
00:21:12Hi.
00:21:13That engagement party was just really exhausting.
00:21:16You're not tired?
00:21:17Tired?
00:21:18No, not at all.
00:21:20For us, the night's just getting started.
00:21:23And, you know, maybe I think that it's time for us to celebrate just the two of us.
00:21:31Sorry.
00:21:33I can't tonight, Melina.
00:21:44I'm sorry.
00:21:46Hello?
00:21:50Asshole.
00:21:51Veronica?
00:22:00Veronica?
00:22:04Veronica?
00:22:07Why does Veronica have the same ring as me?
00:22:11And why does Laurence have the ring?
00:22:15What happened to your neck?
00:22:16Are you hurt?
00:22:17No, I'm not.
00:22:17I'm just a little tired.
00:22:18I'm going to go home.
00:22:19They've known each other all along.
00:22:29Mom?
00:22:32It's Veronica.
00:22:34That bitch stole my fiancé.
00:22:36What?
00:22:37That little slut.
00:22:39Don't worry, darling.
00:22:41I'll deal with her myself.
00:22:42Dad!
00:22:51Are you home?
00:22:54Veronica, why are you here so late?
00:22:57You said you'd be gone by now.
00:22:58I have a house full of friends and family.
00:23:01I've got no room for you.
00:23:03I'm just here to say goodbye to my dad.
00:23:05He's not here.
00:23:07Go now.
00:23:08I need some rest.
00:23:26Hey, Mina.
00:23:28What's up?
00:23:33All alone?
00:23:34You need some company?
00:23:36Huh?
00:23:36What the fuck are you doing?
00:23:37What the fuck are you doing?
00:23:38Hey, what the fuck are you doing?
00:23:40Hey, shut up, you fucking bitch.
00:23:43Shut up, you fucking bitch.
00:23:47Shut up, you fucking bitch.
00:23:49Oh, who's that?
00:23:52Who's that?
00:23:52Is that your daddy?
00:23:55You boys want to keep going?
00:23:56Huh?
00:23:57Hey, hey, no one.
00:23:59Come on.
00:24:00You okay?
00:24:03You okay?
00:24:04Come here.
00:24:04See how?
00:24:05Come here.
00:24:09If you could just stay here for the time being.
00:24:12Just for one night until I get myself sorted out.
00:24:17I'll pay you.
00:24:19What are you trying to do?
00:24:20Just push me away.
00:24:21We can't keep doing this.
00:24:24I don't need you.
00:24:25Let me go.
00:24:26Yeah?
00:24:27Go where?
00:24:27To the dance teacher?
00:24:29It's none of your business.
00:24:30You're marrying my sister.
00:24:32And I don't want her to know about our ugly contractual relationship.
00:24:37Our ugly contractual relationship?
00:24:39Is that all you think of us?
00:24:41Yes, asshole.
00:24:44Oh, God.
00:24:45Are you okay?
00:24:46Are you sick?
00:24:48Go.
00:24:48Go.
00:24:51Find those men.
00:25:06Make sure they never see the sun again.
00:25:07Uh, honey?
00:25:28Yes?
00:25:29Did you and Veronica know each other before?
00:25:31That has nothing to do with our wedding.
00:25:34Could that cross the line, though?
00:25:36I'm marrying you for marriage, not love.
00:25:38Okay, gotta remember that.
00:25:40So, Lawrence, you do care about Veronica?
00:25:43Veronica.
00:25:44You, um, you really are incredible at dancing still.
00:25:52Oh, thank you.
00:25:53I appreciate that.
00:25:55Director Lucas is looking for new dancers.
00:25:58Do you, um, care to give that a shot?
00:26:00I mean, um, I'm not ready to dance right now, but if you guys have some teaching gigs available, I'd love that.
00:26:14My friend's studio is hiring teachers for children.
00:26:18I mean, I got some experience, so.
00:26:22Yeah.
00:26:23True.
00:26:23Veronica, what a coincidence.
00:26:28Look at the two of you.
00:26:30So sweet.
00:26:32We're just catching up.
00:26:35Yeah, um, anything Veronica needs, I will provide.
00:26:40Do you guys care to join us?
00:26:41No.
00:26:42No need.
00:26:44Bye.
00:26:44You know, I'll reach out to him, and I'll see if he can, uh, help you, uh, out there.
00:26:50Yeah.
00:26:53Well, cheers to that.
00:27:08There you go.
00:27:11Aw.
00:27:12Look how cute.
00:27:14I'm almost jealous.
00:27:20Oh.
00:27:21Yeah, that's all right.
00:27:21Let's just say this.
00:27:26Okay.
00:27:27Have a seat.
00:27:27Have a seat.
00:27:29How was, um, how was this place?
00:27:31Is it okay?
00:27:32I covered the next six months of rent, so you should be able to live here without any worry,
00:27:36all right?
00:27:37How much was it?
00:27:39No, don't worry about that.
00:27:41Don't worry about that, all right?
00:27:42It was a surprise.
00:27:43Hey, are you okay?
00:27:48Hey.
00:27:51Hey.
00:27:52Hey.
00:27:53Oh.
00:27:54Hey.
00:28:00You are so beautiful, Veronica.
00:28:01Oh.
00:28:13You're already living with your new man, huh?
00:28:17Or are you just as desperate?
00:28:18Raymond's a much better man than you'll ever be.
00:28:21How dare you say something like that?
00:28:22You're just desperate.
00:28:24Like, you're ready to marry Elena, Mr. Lawrence Roy, soon-to-be brother-in-law.
00:28:29Okay, I'm not marrying Elena for love, okay?
00:28:32It's only just because she-
00:28:34Look, if you-
00:28:36If the three years between you and me were more than a contract to you, Veronica, I mean,
00:28:43do you love me?
00:28:44Love is something you'll never have or understand.
00:28:47So with him, it's love, then?
00:28:49Is that-
00:28:50Did he hurt you?
00:28:54I'm sorry if I crossed the line, but I promise I will take care of you.
00:29:07It's what you're business to leave.
00:29:09Get it.
00:29:11Are you okay?
00:29:14You know, I always wanted you, right, Veronica?
00:29:41Always I have and always will.
00:29:43If anyone touches you again, you know, I'll make them disappear.
00:29:53This is ridiculous.
00:29:55I don't want her anywhere near my child.
00:29:57It's disgusting.
00:29:58This teacher is unacceptable.
00:30:00You have to replace her.
00:30:01I understand your concerns, and I assure you, they will be addressed.
00:30:05Just give me some time, please.
00:30:06Veronica, look, you're very talented, and Raymond's recommendation does carry a lot of weight.
00:30:20I can't have you working here anymore.
00:30:24What?
00:30:24Why?
00:30:26Some of the parents have seen this video.
00:30:28I need to address their concerns.
00:30:34I hope you understand.
00:30:35I'm sorry.
00:30:36How could this happen?
00:30:42Why does this video exist?
00:30:44I thought only Lauren saw me perform that name.
00:30:47Are you insane?
00:30:49Did you post that video?
00:30:51Even if you don't want me and Raymond to be together, why would you sabotage my job that
00:30:56he helped me get?
00:30:57Uh, what video?
00:30:58What's going on?
00:30:59I never want to see you again.
00:31:13Raymond.
00:31:14Raymond, she only has eyes for Raymond.
00:31:17Perfect.
00:31:18Veronica thinks those videos are posted by Lawrence.
00:31:21My plan is working.
00:31:23Soon, they'll hate to see each other.
00:31:26I don't want to see Raymond anymore.
00:31:28Yes, sir.
00:31:29You're not even his own as Dan's teacher, okay?
00:31:30Fire him.
00:31:36Uh, your coffee, dear.
00:31:37Leave me, please, Helena.
00:31:46It's Crowder.
00:31:47Mr. Royalty to change a Dan's teacher.
00:31:51I'll handle that myself.
00:31:56I need some drastic measures to make Veronica
00:31:58break up with Lawrence for good.
00:32:00Sorry, Raymond.
00:32:01But it's zero bad luck for falling for her.
00:32:07Don't worry, Ronnie.
00:32:09All right?
00:32:11Look, I know you're under a lot of pressure right now.
00:32:15But let's work together.
00:32:17We'll split the fee, and you'll find more opportunity.
00:32:23Raymond, I'm so sorry for all the trouble I've caused for you and your friends.
00:32:27No, no, no, no, no.
00:32:28You didn't do anything.
00:32:30Blame the person who caused this.
00:32:32You're right.
00:32:33I will never forgive him.
00:32:36Ever since you became partners, I've liked you.
00:32:39And that will never change.
00:32:41I want to be with you through the thick and thin.
00:32:44And we'll create a masterpiece, and we'll perform it on the biggest stage.
00:32:48Raymond, please, I just need more time.
00:32:52Take all the time you need, all right?
00:32:55And I'll be waiting for you.
00:32:56I was Raymond.
00:33:26Is he in danger?
00:33:27The surgery went well, but his left leg is shattered and his head injury is severe.
00:33:32Recovery's going to be a slow and difficult process.
00:33:39Ma'am, I'm the police officer in charge of this case.
00:33:42Are you a friend of Mr. Schultz?
00:33:43Yes.
00:33:45This picture was taken from the scene last night.
00:33:47Could you please let me know if there's any clues in regarding the case?
00:33:50This tie clip was the one I gave to Lawrence.
00:33:56No, I don't recognize anything.
00:33:59It's Phil, though.
00:34:00That's all right.
00:34:01Thank you very much, and if there's any additional information, please feel free to reach out.
00:34:07Sorry.
00:34:07Were you guys here?
00:34:12I heard that Raymond had an accident, so we came as soon as we heard.
00:34:16I...
00:34:17Sorry.
00:34:18Excuse me.
00:34:20Did you hurt Raymond?
00:34:21Why did you think I did this?
00:34:27Where's your clip?
00:34:29I was in a rush.
00:34:30Why?
00:34:31The police found a blue diamond clip at the scene.
00:34:35Okay, so you think I did this then?
00:34:38It was a C-star blue diamond clip.
00:34:41The one that I gave you.
00:34:43There's no other like it.
00:34:45Okay, yeah.
00:34:46I don't like the guy very much, okay?
00:34:48But I would never hurt him because of you.
00:34:50And let alone leave evidence behind.
00:34:52All right, think about that.
00:34:53Raymond's my friend.
00:34:54Why do you hate him so much?
00:34:57Daddy.
00:34:59Can you just...
00:35:00Just leave me alone?
00:35:01And can you please stop hurting the people who I care about so much?
00:35:07Please.
00:35:08You're engaged to Elena.
00:35:09I'm only engaged to Elena because she is just...
00:35:12Is everything okay in here?
00:35:15Yes.
00:35:16It's fine.
00:35:18She's going.
00:35:19I know that you love Raymond, but...
00:35:21There's no need to point fingers at us.
00:35:23It could have just been a robbery gone wrong.
00:35:30Maybe...
00:35:32Maybe I'm just overthinking this.
00:35:36Who else could hurt Raymond?
00:35:39Oh.
00:35:42Where is my blue diamond tie clip?
00:35:50Oh, I'm sorry.
00:35:55I don't know why.
00:35:57Tie clip is crouched.
00:36:00Someone move this.
00:36:02I was about to fire Raymond when he was attacked.
00:36:04This evidence was left deliberately to frame me.
00:36:07Can you take care of this, please?
00:36:09I don't want anyone touching it.
00:36:10Yes, sir.
00:36:10So what if the real victim isn't just Raymond, but Veronica?
00:36:22Lee, I need you to transfer Raymond to another hospital.
00:36:25And Veronica's mother, too.
00:36:32Where's Raymond?
00:36:33He transferred to another hospital last night.
00:36:36To where?
00:36:37I don't have access to that information.
00:36:40Where's my mom, Gracie Quinn?
00:36:44Someone was handling her transfer last night as well.
00:36:48Didn't you ask for it?
00:36:51Someone?
00:36:57Where did you take my mom and Raymond?
00:36:59Uh, a safer place.
00:37:02A safer place?
00:37:03How could it be a safer place if it's under your control?
00:37:06Just please leave them alone.
00:37:08Raymond's under critical condition, and my mom's condition is worsening.
00:37:12Just stop.
00:37:13Stop.
00:37:13Okay?
00:37:13It sounds like you're begging for him right now.
00:37:15I hate that.
00:37:16Don't do that.
00:37:17What do you want from me?
00:37:20I want you to come back to the villa.
00:37:21Okay?
00:37:23Look.
00:37:25Since Raymond's little accident, we don't have a teacher for my wedding.
00:37:29It can't go on unless we have one.
00:37:31I want you to take his place.
00:37:34Are you serious?
00:37:35What would Elena think?
00:37:37Look.
00:37:38You want to teach, right?
00:37:40And we need a dance teacher.
00:37:42She won't think anything.
00:37:43How would you expect that to happen?
00:37:49You know, I don't want to be involved in your guys' relationship.
00:37:52You won't.
00:37:53You need money.
00:37:54We need a teacher.
00:37:55That's it.
00:37:59Let me show you something.
00:38:07Is that my mom?
00:38:08I've arranged the best care for her.
00:38:09And for Raymond, too.
00:38:11So.
00:38:13And you can visit them whenever you want.
00:38:17I just promise you'd come back afterwards.
00:38:20Okay.
00:38:21This ends after the wedding.
00:38:24When the wedding is done,
00:38:27yes, you can go.
00:38:30Okay?
00:38:30Oh, honey.
00:38:45Veronica.
00:38:46What are you doing here?
00:38:48She's going to help teach you.
00:38:49Since, uh, Raymond's injured.
00:38:51Teach me to dance?
00:38:54If she teaches me my lack of skill and the lie about saving Lawrence will be exposed.
00:39:00I can't let that happen.
00:39:02Why?
00:39:02Is there a problem?
00:39:03Oh, nothing.
00:39:04I'm, God, I'm happy to have her.
00:39:07I was just thinking, since Raymond's hurt, maybe we should just, uh, cancel the dance for the wedding.
00:39:14Why would you want to cancel?
00:39:17Isn't this what you were looking forward to the most?
00:39:19Of course.
00:39:19I'm just, oh, I'm so worried about my sister managing everything.
00:39:24Especially since her mom needs care 24-7.
00:39:27I'm not going to worry about that, okay?
00:39:28That's all taken care of.
00:39:30Just practice, okay?
00:39:32Okay.
00:39:32Um, I remember Raymond's steps.
00:39:40We could just simplify them.
00:40:02Simplify it.
00:40:08There's no need for it to be that difficult for the wedding.
00:40:11These steps are the floral goddess steps.
00:40:14Didn't you audition for it?
00:40:17Didn't you audition for it?
00:40:19I, I remember.
00:40:21It's just been so long.
00:40:23A little rusty.
00:40:25She refused to dance at the engagement party.
00:40:27Now she forgets everything.
00:40:29She clearly doesn't know how to dance.
00:40:31So, how could she have auditioned for the floral goddess and met Lawrence?
00:40:35Um, when did you learn how to dance?
00:40:38And how did you audition for the floral goddess, not knowing the steps?
00:40:43Isn't that how you got with Lawrence?
00:40:46I don't know why you're so focused on my past with my fiancé.
00:40:50Maybe you should just focus on teaching me the dance.
00:40:53Um, I don't have my dancing shoes with me.
00:40:57But I can teach you another time.
00:41:00It's okay.
00:41:01I have some spray dancing shoes.
00:41:03Same size, right?
00:41:16Here you go.
00:41:17Oh, shit.
00:41:27Oh, my God.
00:41:28That's my bad.
00:41:29Are you okay?
00:41:30I guess I shouldn't have let you teach me the dance.
00:41:33Serves you right.
00:41:34I'll make sure that you stay out of the way.
00:41:38What happened?
00:41:39You okay?
00:41:40No?
00:41:41Okay.
00:41:42Keep it up.
00:41:42Keep it to your hospital.
00:41:43No.
00:41:43No.
00:41:43No.
00:41:43No.
00:41:43No.
00:41:44No.
00:41:44No.
00:41:44No.
00:41:44No.
00:41:45No.
00:41:45No.
00:41:46No hospital.
00:41:54I can't let Lawrence know that I'm pregnant.
00:41:58I don't need to go to the hospital.
00:42:00I'm okay.
00:42:01No?
00:42:01No.
00:42:02You sure?
00:42:02Mm-hmm.
00:42:04Okay.
00:42:05I'm going to call the family doctor just in case, though.
00:42:07Yeah?
00:42:08Okay.
00:42:08Careful.
00:42:16Careful.
00:42:17Careful.
00:42:24Ouch.
00:42:24That hurt.
00:42:25I know.
00:42:26Just bear with it, though.
00:42:26Bear with it, okay?
00:42:27There's no need to do this.
00:42:29If Phelanis, he says she won't like it.
00:42:32I was engaged to her out of gratitude.
00:42:35The person who really has my heart is you.
00:42:37What's wrong?
00:42:57Nothing.
00:42:58Veronica's injured, so I just thought I'd practice a little bit more by myself.
00:43:03I just want the dance to be perfect for our wedding.
00:43:08I got my dancing shoes dirty.
00:43:11They're the ones from the accident, and I ruined them, and it's all my fault.
00:43:14It's fine.
00:43:17I'll have someone fix them.
00:43:19Everything will be perfect for the wedding.
00:43:21Don't worry.
00:43:21I don't want to keep your promise, thanks.
00:43:27I'm done.
00:43:30Um, honey, my ear kind of hurts.
00:43:33Can you just see if my hair is caught in it?
00:43:35Sure.
00:43:41Now you see they're engaged, and there's no place for you.
00:43:51We weren't.
00:43:55My ankles hurt, and I can't dance or teach anymore, so.
00:44:00And I just don't want to be involved in your relationship anymore, so I'm just going to go right now.
00:44:05Honey, what is really wrong?
00:44:08I just need to go and see my phone.
00:44:10Look, you need a rest right now, okay?
00:44:13I will take you to see your mom when you're feeling better.
00:44:16No need.
00:44:20Okay.
00:44:20Hey, hey, hey.
00:44:24You okay?
00:44:25Dr. Ange, can I get you in here, please?
00:44:27Hey, hey, hey.
00:44:31I thought that she sprained her ankle.
00:44:36What's with the bleeding?
00:44:42How is she?
00:44:45Why is she bleeding?
00:44:46Isn't this a symptom of, like, miscarriages?
00:44:52Miscarriage?
00:44:53No.
00:44:54It's a stress-related bleeding.
00:44:56She just needs some rest.
00:44:57I'm pregnant.
00:45:07I suspected it when I saw the bleeding.
00:45:11But don't worry, it's minor.
00:45:14Early pregnancy can be fragile.
00:45:16And stress or poor nutrition can cause this.
00:45:19You need to take rest and proper care of your body.
00:45:22Just please don't tell anyone that.
00:45:27A minute, Mr. Roy?
00:45:28Nobody, nobody can know about this.
00:45:31Of course.
00:45:39Hey.
00:45:41You need to take care of yourself, so I made this for you.
00:46:14Hello? I'm sending you the samples. Give me the result data.
00:46:44Hello? How is it? Are the results in?
00:46:51I've sent the samples to several clinics, but none came back with definite results.
00:46:55They all said it's not enough to verify pregnancy or the paternity.
00:46:58There's no way that this was just normal bleeding from stress. Who are we getting?
00:47:07Something is definitely off.
00:47:10Hello, is this Dr. Ange's office?
00:47:16Hi, this is Laurence Roy's fiancée. I was hoping I could book an appointment with you this afternoon.
00:47:30Ms. Crowder, how can I help you? You know, I can visit you at home if you're not feeling well.
00:47:36Um, I'm actually here to consult you about pregnancy.
00:47:41Well?
00:47:43Well, both you and Mr. Roy are perfectly fertile according to your health records.
00:47:51Are there any other things to consider? It's just Laurence and I's first time preparing for parenthood and we're just a bit nervous.
00:47:59We're just a bit nervous.
00:48:00Just relax. Let the nature run its course. You have nothing to worry about.
00:48:05Amazing. My sister said that you examined her pregnancy very professionally and you made her feel so much more at ease.
00:48:13Your sister, Miss Queen?
00:48:15Yes. She also asked if I could just grab her records and her test results while I'm here.
00:48:20I thought you didn't know she was pregnant.
00:48:31So you are pregnant. You and your little bastard need to stay away from Laurence.
00:48:39No. What? No. No, we're not going to do business with the Francis Corps, okay? End of discussion.
00:48:45God damn it.
00:48:48Hmm. You look tired.
00:48:50I am.
00:48:51Can I give you a massage?
00:48:55Thank you. I just, you should go rest.
00:49:02Hey, Laurence. I think we should have one last party before we get married.
00:49:07Yeah, sure. Okay. Just get Mrs. Norman to get you whatever you need.
00:49:14Um, how's Raymond's recovery going?
00:49:17He's still in recoveries. In muscle rehab.
00:49:20Well, I hope he can make it.
00:49:23He's just been such a great help with the wedding and so cute how Veronica worries about him.
00:49:29Sir, this is the bidding proposal for the Central Park project.
00:49:41This is the restored dancing shift for Ms. Crowder.
00:49:44Okay, is the Francis Corps keeping a close eye on this project?
00:49:47They monitor us all.
00:49:49Okay, how's our financial outlook?
00:49:51We're still working on it. You know, the investment is pretty large.
00:49:55If keeping competition, it's going to drag down our cash flow.
00:49:59If it affects us, why not them?
00:50:03Can you arrange a comprehensive examination for Raymond?
00:50:06And if he's cleared to leave, get him for Elena's party.
00:50:09Actually, sir, there's something I want to tell you about.
00:50:15Actually, sir, there's something I want to tell you about.
00:50:19Yes, go ahead.
00:50:21You asked me to replace Ms. Crowder's dancing as the instructor.
00:50:24She insists to do it herself.
00:50:27She did it herself?
00:50:28Yeah.
00:50:29Okay, if she did it herself, then do you think there's a chance?
00:50:32Just keep a close eye on it for me, okay?
00:50:35And report back to me if you smell anything fishy?
00:50:37Yes, sir.
00:50:40Thank you all so much for coming to our little,
00:51:07bachelor and bachelorette party.
00:51:09Let's make this one last crazy night before Lawrence and I get married.
00:51:15Do you want to go inside and rest?
00:51:18And more great news.
00:51:20My beautiful sister Veronica is pregnant.
00:51:25Congratulations, sis.
00:51:29You're pregnant?
00:51:34You're pregnant?
00:51:36Oh, don't be shy.
00:51:38We are all so very happy for you.
00:51:41And well, once Lawrence and I are married, we'll start trying for a baby too.
00:51:48So you better share all of your experiences with me.
00:51:53Does the father know the good news?
00:51:55Don't say it's Lawrence's child in front of all these people.
00:51:59Oh my god!
00:52:01Everyone say hi to Raymond and congratulate him on recovering from some very serious injuries.
00:52:07Raymond is my sister's baby daddy.
00:52:09So congratulations on your baby too.
00:52:13You know, thank you for everything you did today.
00:52:18And now I finally know how good of a sister you are to me.
00:52:26There's no way Veronica can't be pregnant with Raymond's child.
00:52:36I refuse to believe.
00:52:38This is Lawrence's child, right?
00:52:44Why didn't you tell him?
00:52:48He wouldn't want it anyway.
00:52:53And he's married now, so that would just make things worse.
00:53:02Elena, the day I was attacked, I think I saw Elena.
00:53:10Why don't you want to hurt me?
00:53:11Should I tell Veronica?
00:53:13Look, I don't know what happened between you two.
00:53:17But during my recovery, Lawrence has been a major help, all right?
00:53:21He's arranged the best care for me and your mother.
00:53:24And things might not be as bad as you think they are.
00:53:27I think you should tell him the truth.
00:53:35No matter what happens, Lawrence should know the truth.
00:53:50Um, has Lawrence came back yet?
00:53:54He hasn't been back since he left last night.
00:53:57Aren't these the shoes I lost in a car accident five years ago?
00:54:09How did they end up here?
00:54:11Um, what are these shoes doing here?
00:54:17Oh, these are Mrs. Crowder's dancing shoes.
00:54:22Five years ago, she saved Mr. Roy from a car accident.
00:54:28They were left at the scene, destroyed.
00:54:32He had them repaired for her.
00:54:34Isn't that romantic?
00:54:37Lawrence was in a car accident?
00:54:41Was that by any chance at the West Ferry terminal?
00:54:45Well, yes, it was.
00:54:47Yeah.
00:54:56Five years ago, I saved someone from a car accident and missed the poor goddess audition.
00:55:02It was Lawrence.
00:55:03I saved him.
00:55:05Elena faked the whole story, pretending to be me.
00:55:09What are you doing here?
00:55:23You gotta get some rest, Mama.
00:55:25I modified and simplified the wedding dance steps just as you asked.
00:55:30Here.
00:55:31Simplified?
00:55:33No, this looks way more difficult.
00:55:36They're adapted from the Flora Goddess.
00:55:38You auditioned for it, is that right?
00:55:41Yeah, it's just been so long.
00:55:43I don't really remember it, clearly.
00:55:45You don't remember, or do you just not know how to do it?
00:55:50Oh, what are you talking about?
00:55:53I practiced long and hard for that, and if it weren't for some unexpected events, I would've been in the show.
00:55:59Unexpected events?
00:56:01Were those unexpected events related to Lawrence?
00:56:04Oh, my God.
00:56:06What is with all of the Lawrence?
00:56:09Five years ago, you saved Lawrence from a car accident and missed the Flora Goddess audition.
00:56:15What do you know about me and Lawrence?
00:56:17What'd he tell you?
00:56:18Was the accident at the Gallus Square?
00:56:20Yeah, yeah, I was at Gallus Square.
00:56:24I saved him, and we fell in love.
00:56:26You're lying, Elena.
00:56:28Lawrence's car accident was at the West Ferry Terminal.
00:56:31Who did you save at Gallus Square?
00:56:37Who did you save at Gallus Square?
00:56:39It's been years.
00:56:41It's hard for people to remember the small details.
00:56:44Five years ago, I saved someone from a car accident, lost my shoes, and missed the Flora Goddess audition.
00:56:52You made this whole story up pretending to be me to deceive Lawrence.
00:56:56You're just jealous.
00:56:57How could you accuse your own sister of that?
00:57:01You're a vicious little snake, Veronica.
00:57:03You know what?
00:57:04We're gonna call Lawrence and Dad here, and we're gonna sort this out face-to-face, okay?
00:57:08Uh, no.
00:57:10Yes?
00:57:11No!
00:57:12Veronica, give me the phone!
00:57:13Uh!
00:57:14Shh!
00:57:15Oh!
00:57:16Ow!
00:57:17Ow!
00:57:18Ow!
00:57:19Ow!
00:57:24Sir!
00:57:25Ms. Quinn has been rushed to the hospital.
00:57:28What happened?
00:57:29Shh!
00:57:30She had a miscarriage.
00:57:32She had a miscarriage?
00:57:33She had a miscarriage?
00:57:44I'm really sorry.
00:57:46We've done everything we could.
00:57:48Mrs. Quinn is gonna need a lot of rest for a healthy recovery.
00:57:52I'm sorry for your loss.
00:57:57Let our hands Babylon.
00:57:58I'm sorry.
00:57:59I'm sorry.
00:58:00Oh.
00:58:01I'm sorry.
00:58:02Sorry.
00:58:03I'm sorry.
00:58:04I'm sorry.
00:58:05I'm sorry.
00:58:06I'm sorry.
00:58:07I'm sorry.
00:58:08Mom?
00:58:10Veronica knows that I lied about Lawrence.
00:58:12What do I do?
00:58:13That's over for me.
00:58:15It's over for me. For us.
00:58:18What? How did she find out? What about Lawrence?
00:58:21No, he doesn't know yet.
00:58:23But we argued and she fell.
00:58:27She lost the baby.
00:58:30We're at the hospital right now.
00:58:33We're coming right away.
00:58:35Okay.
00:58:37Yeah.
00:58:39My baby was gone.
00:58:45Sweetheart, are you okay?
00:58:50Oh, my God.
00:58:51When Elena told us, we were heartbroken.
00:58:54We could have taken care of you and this accident wouldn't have happened.
00:58:59Veronica, I'm so sorry. It is all my fault.
00:59:03You owe me an explanation.
00:59:05Why did you steal my story?
00:59:08I'm sorry I stole your story and lied to Lawrence,
00:59:12but I did it because I love him so much. I'm sorry.
00:59:17No.
00:59:18It's my fault.
00:59:21When Lawrence came to the house with those shoes,
00:59:25I thought they were Elena's. I didn't know they were hers.
00:59:29I'm so sorry.
00:59:30No.
00:59:31That is not your fault.
00:59:32Veronica, don't put it on your father.
00:59:34He has always loved you the most.
00:59:36When he heard about the accident, he was so terrified and rushed over here immediately.
00:59:42He loved me the most, really.
00:59:46Sweetheart, you are so talented, smart, and destined for greatness.
00:59:53But Elena, she doesn't have your gifts.
00:59:57Marriage is your only security and Lawrence, her only opportunity.
01:00:05Marriage is your only security and Lawrence, her only opportunity.
01:00:10No.
01:00:12Veronica, how can you say that?
01:00:14I have always loved you like my own daughter.
01:00:17I beg for you.
01:00:19Veronica, if I can't marry Lawrence, I don't even want to live anymore.
01:00:23Veronica, look at your sister. She's desperate.
01:00:25You better see her like this.
01:00:27I didn't raise you to be so heartless and unforgiving.
01:00:33Okay.
01:00:36I won't tell him the truth.
01:00:38Really?
01:00:39Yes.
01:00:42Elena saved him.
01:00:44That's the story now.
01:00:49Satisfied?
01:00:50Oh, thank you, sweetheart.
01:00:51Your daddy's all angel.
01:00:53Clean him.
01:00:54Sweetheart, rest up.
01:00:56We'll come see you later.
01:01:08What now?
01:01:10How are you doing?
01:01:15Lawrence.
01:01:16My baby's gone.
01:01:22Hey, tell me who the father is, Veronica.
01:01:27So I was right.
01:01:29You and Miss Norman kept on telling me to take the pills every time.
01:01:35Every single time.
01:01:37You should leave now.
01:01:40Please go.
01:01:41I don't think we should see each other anymore.
01:01:46We'll leave.
01:01:47Find out how Veronica lost the baby.
01:01:48Why does she have a miscarriage, Elena?
01:01:49It's all my fault.
01:01:50I shouldn't have let her teach me the choreography when she was pregnant.
01:01:51I know.
01:01:52I was too eager.
01:01:53But, Lawrence.
01:01:54But, Lawrence.
01:01:55You know how much I love you, right?
01:01:56You know how much I love you, right?
01:01:57I know.
01:01:58I know.
01:01:59I know.
01:02:00I know.
01:02:01I know.
01:02:02I was too eager.
01:02:03I know.
01:02:04I know.
01:02:05I know.
01:02:06I know.
01:02:07I know.
01:02:08I know.
01:02:09I know.
01:02:10You know.
01:02:11I know.
01:02:12I'm gonna let her teach me the choreography when she was pregnant.
01:02:13I shouldn't have let her teach me the choreography when she was pregnant.
01:02:16I know. I was too eager.
01:02:18But, Lawrence.
01:02:20You know how much I love you, right?
01:02:24Lawrence, please.
01:02:26Please don't leave me.
01:02:29Okay, you did save my life, so...
01:02:32Yeah, the wedding is still on as arranged for next week.
01:02:35But, Elena, if you harm anyone, this agreement is cancelled.
01:02:43No. Shut up. Shut up.
01:02:51The wedding's next week.
01:02:54And he's warning me not to hurt anyone.
01:02:56He's gotta know something is up.
01:02:58But, why would he go along with the wedding if he knew?
01:03:03Oh, he must be tricking me.
01:03:06Oh, I hate him.
01:03:12This is Mrs. Francis' invitation to the party.
01:03:19What am I gonna do about Veronica?
01:03:21She said she'd stay quiet for now, but...
01:03:25She is a ticking time bomb.
01:03:27Mrs. Francis.
01:03:36No, we're not gonna...
01:03:37We're not gonna do business with the Francis Corps, okay?
01:03:39End of discussion.
01:03:40God damn it.
01:03:41Seems like Lawrence has a grudge against Mrs. Pauline Francis.
01:03:55Maybe she's the key to controlling him.
01:03:57I heard Lawrence Roy's fiancé is incredibly beautiful.
01:04:11I see the rumor is true.
01:04:13Welcome.
01:04:13Well, thank you for the invitation, Mrs. Francis.
01:04:16Unfortunately, Lawrence had an urgent matter at work, so he won't be with us tonight.
01:04:19I know.
01:04:20Lawrence is a very busy man.
01:04:22It's just a humble family dinner tonight.
01:04:25By the way, when is the wedding, and congratulations.
01:04:29It's next week, and I will, of course, send you an invitation as soon as the date is set.
01:04:38Veronica, what are you doing here?
01:04:42So Veronica's attending Francis' dinner party.
01:04:45Her mother's condition worsened after surgery.
01:04:48She was there with Dr. Ross to see a specialist at a dinner.
01:04:51They're both at the dinner?
01:04:53Yeah.
01:04:53Do you two know each other?
01:04:57Veronica is my sister.
01:04:59Miss Quinn's mother is under my care.
01:05:01I brought her here tonight to meet Dr. Moore.
01:05:04I hope this didn't disrupt your dinner.
01:05:07Of course not.
01:05:08You've been my family doctor for so many years.
01:05:10But how surprising.
01:05:12Miss Quinn is Lawrence's sister-in-law.
01:05:14What's so surprising, Aunt Frances?
01:05:22It's been a while, Lawrence.
01:05:25Glad you could be here.
01:05:27What were you guys talking about?
01:05:29She just asked about the wedding day.
01:05:32Dr. Ross, should we go and talk to Dr. Moore?
01:05:34Yes, I think we should.
01:05:35Let's, let's...
01:05:36Let's...
01:05:37Let's...
01:05:38Lawrence, about the Central Park Project.
01:05:43Lawrence Roy, hello.
01:05:46Well, word is the Russians are interested, too.
01:05:50What do you say we join forces and secure the bit together?
01:05:57You and me join forces?
01:06:00You had your son attack me, didn't you?
01:06:03How vile can you be?
01:06:05No, Lawrence was just being a child.
01:06:08He didn't need...
01:06:09Quit it, bitch!
01:06:10You disgust me!
01:06:11Take your uneducated son and get out of this house.
01:06:17Pauline, as of now, you are the lady of the Frances family.
01:06:23And as for your sister, she's banished.
01:06:27Grandpa, please don't send mommy away.
01:06:29They're lying to you.
01:06:30As long as our interests align, we should just let bygones be bygones.
01:06:40Don't you agree, Lawrence, my sweet nephew?
01:06:44I guess it's just a habit for liars to forget easily.
01:06:48Yeah, Frances.
01:06:53I apologize, Miss Frances.
01:06:55Lawrence would definitely want to collaborate with you.
01:06:59Well, he'll come around.
01:07:02Tonight is about family.
01:07:04Elena, you and Lawrence should marry as soon as possible.
01:07:09Men are unpredictable.
01:07:11If you can't win his heart, secure his wealth.
01:07:14Ensure you secure your position quickly.
01:07:18Let me know if you need help.
01:07:29You're back.
01:07:42Yes, baby, I'm here.
01:07:44Come on, here.
01:07:45Have this one.
01:07:49Veronica, just give me the...
01:07:51bottle here.
01:07:53I'll pour you.
01:07:54Where are you going?
01:07:58Where are you?
01:07:58Don't leave, Veronica.
01:08:00Don't leave.
01:08:09Frances, there's an issue that I need your help with.
01:08:13It's about Lawrence.
01:08:25Congratulations on your wedding, Elena.
01:08:27Miss Rory-to-be.
01:08:30I trust she'll ensure smooth cooperation between us?
01:08:34And regarding the matter that we discussed?
01:08:36Everything has been arranged.
01:08:38No need to worry.
01:08:46Um, I completed the transfer of paperwork.
01:08:50I'll drop these off and I'll come back for you soon.
01:08:53Oh, be careful, dear.
01:09:05Excuse me.
01:09:07This isn't the way to the hospital.
01:09:10This is the wrong road.
01:09:14Don't bother.
01:09:16It's no signal.
01:09:18Who are you?
01:09:20Where are you taking me?
01:09:23Stop the car.
01:09:30Let me out.
01:09:38Veronica, I'll always love you.
01:09:41I'm sorry.
01:09:44Sir.
01:09:45Miss Queen.
01:09:46What is it?
01:09:46Who did this?
01:09:51I'm Ed's that it's from, Mrs. Francis.
01:09:55You can't have time to deal with that son of a bitch.
01:09:57We'll be back here as soon as possible, but delay the wedding.
01:09:59Right?
01:10:08Is Lawrence ready?
01:10:09Should we start?
01:10:10There's been a delay.
01:10:11Mr. Roy has just stepped out, but we have the MC holding things off for now.
01:10:16Let's go home.
01:10:18Is he changing his mind?
01:10:21Ed?
01:10:22Is Lawrence not going to marry me?
01:10:24Okay, look, there's just two people up front.
01:10:39I'm going to go around back.
01:10:39Can you stay here for backup?
01:10:40It's too dangerous.
01:10:42Then you create a destruction.
01:10:43No, we know my auntie too well.
01:10:45She's going to have people too.
01:10:46Okay, do as I say.
01:10:46Hello?
01:10:53Did Lawrence go and save Veronica?
01:10:55As expected, it seems he truly cares for her.
01:10:58You were right.
01:11:00I asked you to deal with Veronica quietly.
01:11:04How did Lawrence find out?
01:11:06Now my wedding is ruined and I am without a groom.
01:11:08What do you expect me to do now?
01:11:10Perhaps it's better if he doesn't return.
01:11:13What do you mean by that?
01:11:14If something happens to him as his wife, you'll inherit Tempest Group.
01:11:21Think about your future, Elena.
01:11:23No!
01:11:31See that?
01:11:32Please go.
01:11:49Drop the gun.
01:11:53Drop the gun.
01:11:55Get up.
01:11:56He's risking his life for another girl! Men are unreliable. Hold on to his money. It's
01:12:09the only thing you can keep. Oh my god.
01:12:15Lawrence, you're a truly man of loyalty. You're also in business now. So you know what the
01:12:22bargain works both ways? The central project? I need to know your bid.
01:12:27Yeah, but we'll talk about it, okay? But you just let her go first.
01:12:32All right?
01:12:40Get the fuck out while you can. Look at me, look at me, look at me. Leave, okay?
01:12:46There you go. We'll talk now. Yes?
01:13:05Let's go. This place is about to explode. Just kill with one shot. There's no need for all this trouble.
01:13:10Let him blow up. No evidence. Let's go. Explode? They're going to blow up this place? And Lawrence?
01:13:23Are you okay? Look at me.
01:13:27Lawrence! Lawrence! Lawrence! Lawrence! Lawrence, are you okay? Are you okay?
01:13:32I'll let your girl go. Now tell me your price. You know, if I die today, I'm going to take you with me.
01:13:48Then I'll grant you your wish, you son of a bitch!
01:13:51I'll let your girl go.
01:14:05Pretty boy!
01:14:05Lawrence! Lawrence! Lawrence!
01:14:10Oh no!
01:14:13What do I do? What do I do? What do I do? What do I do? What do I do? I can only take a gamble.
01:14:19What do I do? What do I do? What do I do? What do I do? What do I do? What do I do?
01:14:28Miss Quinn! Are you okay? I'm okay. Please help me.
01:14:32I'm okay. Please help me.
01:14:49Lawrence?
01:14:49Oh, you're awake. Oh my...
01:14:54Mr. Roy, you've regained consciousness. We need to run more tests.
01:15:03Here you go, Orlando.
01:15:08Miss Crowder, you just had blood drawn. Please rest.
01:15:12Your vitals are stabilizing. Fortunately, you were sent to the hospital in time.
01:15:24But you lost a lot of blood. Your fiancé, with the same rare blood type as you,
01:15:29saved you with a transfusion. You're a lucky man.
01:15:32Well, Veronica, how is she? She suffered some minor injuries. She's taking a rest now.
01:15:47Okay. Um, have more people secure her, okay? And we need to reschedule the wedding.
01:15:52Because Elena didn't blame me for not saying goodbye, and she gave me...
01:15:56She gave me another blood transfusion.
01:16:02Hi.
01:16:06Listen, I'm really sorry about something that I expected to happen at the wedding,
01:16:10but thank you for being by my side.
01:16:13You were rushing to save people. I would definitely understand that.
01:16:18Um, listen, I'd love to reschedule the wedding.
01:16:22For the first of next month, if you still marry me.
01:16:28Yes, of course I will.
01:16:32Good. Now listen, um, I'm not going to be able to handle the company of Ferris for a little while.
01:16:39So I'd like you to go in for me. Take charge as my wife.
01:16:48Wait. Lawrence, are you serious?
01:17:02I'm crazy. Do you know what you have done? You have stolen everything for me and bankrupt me.
01:17:15What does your bankruptcy have to do with me?
01:17:17My wedding is about to start, and we'll settle this later.
01:17:22Oh! Oh! Oh my God!
01:17:24Lawrence, save me! Lawrence, save me! Save me!
01:17:26Please!
01:17:28Did she have a bad bidding day, Aunt Frances?
01:17:31All thanks to your wife!
01:17:33Not my wife yet, all thanks to you.
01:17:35She took my money but gave me false information!
01:17:39I lost the bid to my entire fortune, and the company's cash flow was cut off!
01:17:43That is bullshit!
01:17:45Lawrence, she lost the bid on her own.
01:17:47Don't believe her.
01:17:48Somebody call the police!
01:17:49Please! Somebody call the police!
01:17:50Lawrence, you...
01:17:57So you were pretending all along?
01:18:00You two plotted against me together?
01:18:03Go to hell!
01:18:06My God, Lawrence, you're here!
01:18:07Oh my God! Wait, you got the wrong person, officer!
01:18:09This old hag is a criminal, not me!
01:18:11Lawrence, tell them! At least tell them it's our wedding!
01:18:13Get off of me, my God!
01:18:15Elena Carter, you're under arrest for corporate espionage, bribery, and assault.
01:18:19I didn't do any of that, I didn't!
01:18:21Lawrence, Lawrence, please tell them they're wrong!
01:18:23I'm your wife!
01:18:24Lawrence, it's all a misunderstanding!
01:18:27You sold my business secrets to Frances Corr that makes you a traitor...
01:18:32and a liar.
01:18:33You were behind all of this.
01:18:37You set this up?
01:18:42And we need to reschedule the wedding,
01:18:45because Elena didn't blame me for not saying goodbye and she gave me...
01:18:48She gave me another blood transfusion.
01:18:52Sir, Elena didn't give you the blood.
01:18:55She was just doing a physical examination.
01:18:57Not Elena?
01:18:59No, it was Veronica.
01:19:02Hi, um, sorry I came in for therapy but I overheard about the kidnapping and...
01:19:09Lawrence, I'm really sorry about the loss of your child with Veronica.
01:19:13What do you mean, my child?
01:19:15Veronica never told you the truth, huh?
01:19:18The child's mine?
01:19:21Why would Veronica lie to me about that?
01:19:23When the accident happened, Miss Crowder was around.
01:19:28When is this that they heard arguments?
01:19:30Another thing you might have wrong, Elena never learned how to dance.
01:19:35So she couldn't have possibly missed the floor goddess audition.
01:19:38And the day I was attacked, I'm pretty sure I saw Elena on the scene.
01:19:44Sir, you asked me to investigate?
01:19:46I did find out.
01:19:49Elena took your diamond tie clip.
01:19:51Okay, so Elena basically lied about everything then, right?
01:19:56She doesn't know how to dance.
01:19:57She never saved me five years ago.
01:19:59She beat you up.
01:20:01She caused Veronica's miscarriage and she's working for my aunt.
01:20:04So it all makes sense now.
01:20:05Elena's target was never me, it was Veronica.
01:20:08So then it must have been Veronica who saved me five years ago.
01:20:12Lawrence, you have to save Veronica.
01:20:16I will.
01:20:20What about Miss Crowder?
01:20:24Spread the word that I'm seriously ill and that I can't recover.
01:20:27And at the same time, I want you to arrange for Elena to join the Tempest group, exercise the power on my behalf as my wife.
01:20:36They will show their true color very soon, huh?
01:20:39My aunt's kidnapping of Veronica, Elena was definitely involved.
01:20:43Just say that I'm going to die from my illness and that should make Elena make her move.
01:20:47Be the perfect opportunity to expose them both.
01:20:50Yes, sir.
01:20:51I'll arrange it right away.
01:20:52So how'd it go?
01:21:00As you expected, Eleanor Crowder instructed Miss Francis to connect Miss Queen.
01:21:06They've been meeting each other frequently, trying to get our beating prizes.
01:21:12Still as despicable as ever.
01:21:15As per arrangement, we have already prepared the false info.
01:21:20And then Eleanor is going to take the bait very soon.
01:21:24They have finished the transaction.
01:21:26We will gather all the info and evidence and then send it to lawyers.
01:21:34Fuck you, Lawrence.
01:21:35You recognize these?
01:21:43You claimed that these were yours and that you saved me from that accident.
01:21:48Now, tell me this.
01:21:49How did Raymond end up injured?
01:21:53And how the hell did Veronica suffer from a miscarriage?
01:21:56I don't know.
01:21:57I don't know.
01:21:57I don't know.
01:21:58You killed my child.
01:22:00Lawrence.
01:22:01Mr. Roy, please.
01:22:04Elena didn't know any better.
01:22:06It was me.
01:22:08I arranged all of this.
01:22:10I'm sure your whole family is going to be punished.
01:22:15You just got to wait your fucking turn.
01:22:16You did all of this for Veronica?
01:22:19Yes.
01:22:20She's the love of my life.
01:22:21All right.
01:22:22And if it weren't for these shoes, I wouldn't know who the hell you were,
01:22:26let alone give you one second of my attention.
01:22:29God, just this way, please.
01:22:30No.
01:22:31No, Lawrence.
01:22:32My God.
01:22:32Lawrence, help.
01:22:33Where are they taking her?
01:22:34What have you done?
01:22:35Where's she gone?
01:22:37Sir, well, I finally secured a Central Park project.
01:22:41The project team is waiting for you to come back and celebrate.
01:22:44You go ahead.
01:22:47I have something more important I got to do.
01:22:52I'm sorry.
01:22:54Veronica has resigned.
01:22:58Great news, Veronica.
01:22:59A major investor just signed a five-year contract with the studio.
01:23:05Wow, that's wonderful.
01:23:06Oh, and this is for him.
01:23:09Dear Veronica, I know the whole truth.
01:23:13I failed to protect you, my Savior, and I'm sorry for the loss of our child.
01:23:16Believe me, I will make them pay the price.
01:23:21Please wait for me.
01:23:22I love you, L. R.
01:23:25Well, congratulations on your investment, but I don't think I can work here anymore.
01:23:36Huh?
01:23:37Why?
01:23:37After I just gave you the great news.
01:23:39I'm sorry.
01:23:39I'm so sorry.
01:23:40Where are you, Veronica?
01:23:46Where are you, Veronica?
01:23:47Mr. Roy, your ex-fiancee, as well as the president of Francis Corp, your competitor,
01:23:57recently received extensive prison terms.
01:24:00What are your thoughts on this matter?
01:24:03Well, they got what they deserved.
01:24:05But what made you choose to reveal the scandal at your wedding?
01:24:10Well, I just wanted the guilty to receive the fullest punishment, really.
01:24:19But that scandal saw in the past.
01:24:21There's actually something that I'd like you guys to help me with.
01:24:27I'm trying to find somebody.
01:24:29She's the love of my life, and I lost her.
01:24:33I don't know.
01:24:33I was just too blind to see the truth, I guess.
01:24:37I just want her to forgive me.
01:24:45If you're watching this interview, I want you to just try and listen to what I'm saying.
01:24:49I want you to forgive me.
01:24:50Forgive everything that I did.
01:24:55I want you to come back to me, Veronica Quinn.
01:24:58Is that you, Veronica?
01:24:59Oh my god, Lawrence Roy is your boyfriend?
01:25:03Veronica Quinn is a very common name.
01:25:05There's no way it could be me.
01:25:07My dad's dying.
01:25:14I guess it was quite a blow when Elena got sent to prison.
01:25:21Anyway, thank you for coming in.
01:25:22Yeah, thanks for having me.
01:25:24See you soon.
01:25:24See you.
01:25:37I'm looking for Mr. George Crowder.
01:25:44Mr. Crowder's funeral ended two or three hours ago.
01:25:46Everyone left already.
01:25:49Sorry.
01:25:49Okay, that's all right.
01:25:58Sorry.
01:26:00I left my purse here.
01:26:03Did anyone show up?
01:26:05No, no.
01:26:07We haven't seen anyone.
01:26:09We're actually about to get off work.
01:26:11So, uh, sorry.
01:26:22Thank you, Lawrence.
01:26:23Not only did you help me during my recovery,
01:26:25you also helped invest into my studio.
01:26:28But I am only a director, so I can't promise you won't lose money.
01:26:32It's okay.
01:26:32I don't gotta worry about the money, aren't I?
01:26:33I trust you.
01:26:34I mean, directing could work out.
01:26:35Yeah.
01:26:35Even though if you can't dance.
01:26:37And Veronica said that you were her best partner, so.
01:26:39Look, I know why you invested into so many studios over the years.
01:26:48Would you like to see her?
01:26:51Well, I mean, you know, there isn't a day that goes by right along for her and all that.
01:26:56I don't want to overstep Karen.
01:26:59I just want her to be happy.
01:26:59Right?
01:27:00Yeah.
01:27:01Raymond, are you there?
01:27:02Um.
01:27:05Uh.
01:27:06Uh, weren't you supposed to be at physiotherapy?
01:27:11What are you doing here so early?
01:27:13I heard we received an investment.
01:27:15Is it true?
01:27:17Yes, it is.
01:27:20Uh, but you, uh, you don't have to worry about this, all right?
01:27:23You go take care of your ankle, because the stage awaits.
01:27:27Well, you're right.
01:27:28I'll leave you to it, Mr. Big Time Director.
01:27:31Uh, Veronica.
01:27:33Um.
01:27:34When the show starts, do you want me to invite Lawrence?
01:27:39Why, why him all of a sudden?
01:27:41I just figured after so many years, maybe you two could pre-kindle.
01:27:46I don't think I can.
01:27:49That ship sailed away three years ago.
01:27:53I do wish him the best, just, just without me.
01:27:57That would be better for both of us.
01:27:59Well, I should probably start going.
01:28:02Tomorrow's the big day.
01:28:15You look stunning.
01:28:29You were indeed born for the stage.
01:28:32If only you were my partner.
01:28:34Although, you did make an excellent director.
01:28:38Oh?
01:28:41Duty calls.
01:28:41Duty calls.
01:29:05Ladies and gentlemen, let's welcome our visionary director, Raymond Schultz.
01:29:10You really update yourself this time, but I gotta ask, would you join me for the next one?
01:29:32Voluntary��.
01:29:38Donalick.
01:29:40There won't go.
01:29:42You...
