Transcript
00:00Mr. Eaton cooked them.
00:03What?
00:05Mr. Eaton, why bother cooking Miss Tayer's meals every day?
00:09Just order takeout.
00:11Takeouts, no match for what I cook.
00:13I make all of her favorite dishes.
00:16So why haven't you told Miss Tayer?
00:20I worry she wouldn't like it.
00:24Get out!
00:26Okay.
00:39You can come back anytime and still be my assistant.
00:55He's finally back.
01:10My period ended today.
01:21Aaron?
01:23Why are you in my bed?
01:25I miss you so much.
01:27Lately you've been working late and have no time for me.
01:30I fall asleep waiting for you.
01:33Get some rest.
01:35I'll take the guest room.
01:37Irene!
01:38Why won't you meet me?
01:40Are you avoiding me?
01:41No, I've just been swamped at work.
01:46I'll spend time with you soon.
01:49Okay?
01:50Is it because of Oscar?
01:52What are you talking about?
01:54It's getting late.
01:56I have a meeting tomorrow.
01:57So I'll rest now.
02:05My phone.
02:15Hello?
02:16Seriously, Mr. Paxson.
02:17It's been days.
02:19That sim's been sleeping with Irene for four years.
02:21Well, you got nothing.
02:23What else could I do?
02:25I almost had her that day when I faked stomach pain.
02:28I even accused them of stealing in front of everyone.
02:31Hey.
02:32I also faked fainting, so Irene would give me blood, and took the blood meant for him.
02:40That loser's finally gone.
02:42For good.
02:48Why did you frame Oscar?
02:51Irene, I didn't mean to.
02:53Let me explain.
02:54So, Oscar didn't mean to make you sick, nor did he steal anything.
03:01Yet you faked it, and nearly killed him.
03:05Yes.
03:06Maybe I did go too far, but all I wanted was your attention.
03:12Why are you so upset?
03:14Isn't he just your secretary?
03:15Are you seriously comparing him to me?
03:19Don't tell me.
03:21You love him.
03:23No, I don't.
03:25Why would I love him?
03:27He's just a secretary.
03:29Yeah.
03:30That's all he is.
03:31Don't be mad at me.
03:33I wish you're scared.
03:35I saved you once, but it's been four years since we met.
03:39I was scared that you'd leave me for another man.
03:43Of course not.
03:45Oscar isn't my man.
03:48I only have you.
03:51From the moment you saved me, my heart has belonged to you alone.
03:59Okay.
04:00I believe you.
04:02Irene, do you know why Oscar suddenly quit?
04:07Why?
04:09Because he betrayed you.
04:12He definitely took advantage of being your secretary to steal secrets, and secretly join
04:16a rival company.
04:18Why else would he disappear like that?
04:21No way.
04:22Oscar would never betray me.
04:24It's all true.
04:26Think about it.
04:27Oscar is just some penniless nobody.
04:29Money's all he's after.
04:30He has no wealth, no status, no backing, and he just used us four years with the company
04:36as leverage for a better offer.
04:39He would never...
04:40He betrayed you!
04:43I'm the one you truly love.
04:45Now that he's gone, and I'm back, isn't that perfect?
04:49You're finally free.
04:52Why not be glad?
04:55I'll get to the bottom of this.
04:59If Oscar betrayed me, I'll never forgive him.
05:06Come to my office.
05:13Yes, Miss Teyr?
05:15When did Oscar hand in his resignation?
05:18I don't recall it.
05:21Did he forge it?
05:23No.
05:24Mr. Eaton didn't forge anything.
05:26You signed it on the 18th of last month.
05:2918th?
05:35Aaron's return.
05:37It was that day.
05:39Here.
05:51Miss Teyr, here's Mr. Eaton's resignation.
05:55Really?
05:56Aaron, you're coming back?
05:59Miss Teyr, it's Mr. Eaton's resignation letter.
06:03I know.
06:03I'll wait for you.
06:05Mr. Eaton only has one month left now that he's in the handover period.
06:09Okay.
06:10I won't forget.
06:12A month from today
06:13will be the happiest day
06:15of my life.
06:28The day
06:30of Aaron's return
06:32was the same day
06:36I let Oscar leave.
06:38Did Oscar mention why he decided to leave?
06:43It doesn't matter.
06:45When someone gives up their future
06:48they give up any chance to be loved.
06:51I made the wrong choice
06:53right from the start.
06:56You know what?
06:57The saddest kind of man is.
07:00The one who's gentle but has no success.
07:04Uh
07:05No.
07:07Did
07:08he
07:09feel reluctant to leave?
07:11Did he hesitate?
07:12No.
07:15If you and she were never meant to be
07:17but you still love her so deeply
07:19do you choose the memories
07:21or the ending?
07:24Or
07:25walk away instead?
07:28This time I choose to walk away.
07:31Goodbye.
07:33Bruce.
07:36Nope.
07:39Did he
07:42mention me?
07:44When he left?
07:49Everything
07:51has nothing to do
07:52with Miss Taylor.
07:54Nope.
07:56Oscar
07:58after four years together
08:00do I mean nothing to you?
08:05You can leave.
08:08I believe
08:09Mr. Eden
08:10messaged you
08:11before he left.
08:12Miss Taylor
08:13you didn't see it?
08:15What?
08:16You mean he reached out to me?
08:25It's been seven days
08:26since Mr. Eden left.
08:28I miss him.
08:29Do you have a crush on him?
08:32Aye.
08:33He's gentle
08:34thoughtful
08:34kind
08:35and generous.
08:37It's only natural
08:37to like him.
08:38If he weren't leaving
08:39to get married
08:40I might have married him.
08:42What?
08:44Who is there?
08:46Repeat
08:46what you just said.
08:50Did
08:51Oscar resign
08:52to get married?
08:55Answer me.
08:58Before leaving
08:59Mr. Eden
09:00said his parents
09:01were unwell
09:02and that he would
09:02return home
09:03to get married.
09:06No way.
09:08All Oscar
09:09ever does
09:09is work.
09:10When would he
09:11ever have time
09:12to date?
09:15Mr. Eden
09:16probably felt lonely
09:17after working
09:18non-stop
09:18for four years.
09:20After all
09:21he spent
09:22every birthday
09:23alone.
09:29Oh, it's your birthday?
09:31Why not go out
09:32and celebrate?
09:34The location
09:35doesn't matter.
09:40It's about
09:41who you're with.
09:44He spent
09:44Valentine's Day
09:45alone too.
09:46Happy D-Day.
09:47Everyone gets one.
09:53He's gone
09:54four years
09:55without affection
09:56or affirmation.
09:58That kind of loneliness
09:59wears on him.
10:00Mr. Eden
10:01is an amazing man.
10:03He deserves
10:04love
10:04and I believe
10:06he'll meet someone
10:06who truly fits him.
10:08He won't.
10:09Get back to work.
10:12Wait.
10:17Even if Oscar
10:18returns to work
10:20someday
10:20office
10:21romances
10:22are strictly
10:23forbidden.
10:24Is that clear?
10:30What's with her
10:31being mad
10:32over Mr. Eden
10:33dating someone
10:33since when
10:34are office
10:34romances banned?
10:36Does she
10:37have a crush
10:38on him?
10:40The one I love
10:41is Aaron.
10:44Yeah.
10:46Yes.
10:47It's always
10:48been Aaron.
10:51Oscar.
10:54Would never
10:55leave.
10:57Anyone else
10:58might.
10:59But not him.
11:02Miss Tayer.
11:02The tech team
11:03has successfully
11:04restored your
11:05phone data.
11:05There's a message
11:06from Mr. Eaton.
11:07Let me see.
11:09This time
11:11I'll forgive
11:12his silent
11:13departure.
11:14If he
11:15resumes
11:15his job
11:16I'll give him
11:18anything he
11:19wants.
11:22From now on
11:23I'm no longer
11:24your secretary
11:25and I don't
11:26like you anymore.
11:27We'll go
11:28our separate ways
11:29in this life.
11:30Let's not
11:31meet again.
11:32Miss Tayer.
11:33Miss Tayer.
11:36Hey.
11:37Your phone.
11:54Oscar, would you
11:56cry?
11:58I washed
11:59them.
11:59Have some.
12:02What's wrong?
12:05Take a bite.
12:19Oscar, would you
12:20cry?
12:23If we broke up?
12:26What?
12:27How about you?
12:29What do you think?
12:31Of course not.
12:48My feelings
12:49aren't any less
12:50than yours for Aaron.
12:51It matters
12:52just as much.
12:55The letter.
12:57Emma!
12:58Emma!
12:59Emma!
13:00Yes, Miss Tayer.
13:03Do you remember
13:04why Oscar and Aaron
13:06started arguing
13:07the other day?
13:08Oh, right.
13:09They were arguing
13:10and then
13:12Mr. Paxton
13:13tore up
13:14one of Mr. Eden's
13:15letters.
13:15A letter?
13:17Where is it?
13:18Oh, that letter?
13:20Mr. Paxton
13:21already tore it
13:22to pieces.
13:23I tossed it.
13:24So it's probably
13:25gone by now.
13:27What?
13:27You tossed it?
13:30Yeah.
13:33Hey!
13:54Dear Irene,
13:55hope all is well.
13:57I must be.
13:59I found...
14:03his letter.
14:20Dear Irene,
14:22hope all is well.
14:24I'm a class three freshman.
14:27Oscar Ian,
14:28I like you.
14:29I've liked you
14:32since school started.
14:43But every time
14:44I wanted to confess,
14:46I could feel
14:47the distance between us.
14:49Irene!
14:50I...
14:50I like...
15:04but if
15:05one day
15:06I could
15:08stand by your side,
15:10maybe then
15:10you'd feel
15:11how much I love you.
15:13I'd do so many things
15:15like
15:15leaving a glass of water
15:17on your nightstand
15:19remembering
15:20your monthly needs
15:23and
15:24giving you a flower
15:26every Valentine's Day
15:28and so much more.
15:30I'll show my love
15:319,999 times
15:33for just one chance
15:35to say it.
15:37I hope one day
15:39you'll notice me.
15:41I hope
15:42one day
15:43you'll fall for me.
15:52You wished
15:54for me
15:57to notice
15:59and fall for you?
16:03Oscar,
16:04what is wrong
16:05with you?
16:05It's just a letter
16:07so one of its
16:07Torah was a big deal!
16:09It matters!
16:10My feelings
16:10aren't any less
16:11than yours for Aaron.
16:12It matters
16:13just as much!
16:15I'm the one
16:19who hurt him.
16:23I drove him away.
16:26I drove him away.
16:28Eight years ago
16:30you fell for me first.
16:34Now I'm the one
16:36who can't
16:37let you go.
16:41Oscar,
16:43where are you now?
16:46Can you please
16:48come back?
16:55Oscar,
16:57wherever you are
16:59I will
17:02find you
17:04and bring you home.
17:09I hereby announce
17:11the successful completion
17:13of the first phase
17:14of the Aether AI project.
17:16Bravo!
17:17Bravo!
17:19Oscar,
17:20if you hadn't joined us
17:22a year ago
17:23achieving such
17:24incredible progress
17:26in such a short time
17:28would have been
17:29impossible.
17:30Mr. Greer,
17:32I'm simply
17:32fulfilling my duties.
17:34Ha ha ha ha.
17:37We just need to
17:38deliver the data
17:39back to Greercorp now.
17:41Hmm.
17:43No mistakes
17:44are allowed.
17:46Who should I assign?
17:48I can
17:49do it.
17:53Are you ready
17:54ready to return?
17:55Hmm.
17:56I plan
17:56to visit my parents
17:59and
18:01I've also moved
18:02on from her.
18:03I believe
18:03she started
18:04a happy life
18:05a year ago
18:06and has forgotten me.
18:08I'm glad.
18:09My grandkid
18:11just returned
18:11from overseas.
18:13She's been
18:14a big fan of yours.
18:15Let her
18:16accompany you home.
18:17It's okay.
18:18I can go back
18:30myself.
18:31Hi.
18:32I'm
18:33Elaine Greer.
18:36Let me carry
18:36your bag.
18:37It's fine,
18:38Miss Greer.
18:38I can carry it
18:39myself.
18:40No.
18:41Your hands are
18:42crucial for the
18:43Aether AI project
18:45and must be
18:45protected.
18:46Hmm.
18:47She's right.
18:49Just let her
18:50do it.
18:50Thank you,
18:51then.
18:52Let's go.
18:53Wait.
18:54Grandpa,
18:55where's the car?
18:56Huh?
18:57The basis
18:58car is waiting
18:58downstairs.
19:00No way.
19:01Mr. Eaton
19:01deserves nothing
19:02but the best
19:03vehicle.
19:03Thanks,
19:04Miss Greer.
19:05But there's no need.
19:05The current car
19:06will do.
19:07No way.
19:08Someone like you
19:09deserves more
19:10than a standard
19:10ride.
19:11You've poured
19:12your heart
19:12into the project.
19:14A regular
19:15car doesn't
19:16cut it.
19:18I agree
19:19with Elaine.
19:20I'll get you
19:21a Rolls Royce
19:22right away.
19:25Hello?
19:26Hold the
19:27Rolls Royce
19:27up.
19:30Mr. Eaton,
19:31let's go.
19:32Mr. Greer,
19:33goodbye.
19:33Bye.
19:34Mr. Eaton,
19:35what do you like?
19:36I'll cook it
19:37for you.
19:38Oh,
19:38Miss Greer,
19:39it's okay.
19:40I'll just eat
19:40at the cafeteria.
19:41Wait a minute.
19:43Could the crush
19:44Elaine always
19:45mentions be
19:46him?
19:49Ha ha ha.
19:50Good thing
19:52Oscar finally
19:53moved on.
19:55And Irene
19:56never liked
19:57him anyway.
19:58What a relief.
19:59What a relief.
20:00Ha ha ha ha.
20:06Today's my birthday.
20:09Oscar,
20:12where on earth
20:14did you go?
20:16Why aren't you
20:17back yet?
20:19How could you
20:21just leave
20:21like that?
20:23Ha ha ha.
20:24I miss you so,
20:27ha ha ha.
20:28So much.
20:30Ha ha ha.
20:35Ha ha ha.
20:36make a wish
20:37and blow out
20:38the candles.
20:39Go on.
20:42Oscar,
20:43I knew
20:46you'd never
20:47miss my birthday.
20:54My wish is
20:57to be
20:58with Oscar
21:00this year,
21:03next year,
21:05and for the rest
21:07of my life.
21:17Oscar?
21:20Oscar?
21:24Oscar?
21:28Irene?
21:30Where is Irene?
21:33Irene?
21:33Where is Irene?
21:33Irene?
21:34Irene!
21:34Here is Irene.
21:37Ah, god.
21:43Irene, are you insane?
21:46You neglect the company and stay up drinking?
21:48It's been a year.
21:50Are you planning to die?
21:51Leave me alone.
21:53I need to drink.
21:55Only when I drink can I dream.
21:59And only in dreams can I see Oscar.
22:06Is that secretary worth the fuss?
22:09Oscar isn't just a secretary.
22:11He's been with me for four years.
22:14I can't live without him.
22:16What did he use to enchant you?
22:19Secretary's a dime in a dozen.
22:21And haven't you always liked Mr. Paxton?
22:27Aaron, I'm sorry.
22:29Irene, no worries.
22:30It's been four years, so it's natural your mind drifted a bit.
22:35Given enough time by Irene's side, she'll fall in love with me.
22:40How can that loser compare to me?
22:43Thanks, Aaron.
22:45I don't know why, but I can't forget Oscar.
22:50I think of him every hour, every minute, every second.
23:00I can't start a new relationship without seeing him.
23:08Stop drinking!
23:10We found Oscar!
23:12Really?
23:13Where is he?
23:14Where is Oscar?
23:16Listen to me, Irene.
23:17So what if he does come back?
23:20Look at yourself.
23:21What can you do?
23:23I am...
23:24I am...
23:26Think about it.
23:27You have searched all over Orlin.
23:30Yet there's no sign of him.
23:32I don't know.
23:34Back then, he liked you for being the school bell.
23:37Then he fawned over you because you were his boss.
23:40His love was never unconditional.
23:43Now you've given up on the company and your image.
23:47Why would he come back to you?
23:48Even if he did, he wouldn't like you.
23:52No.
23:54Irene, do you want to work with Orlin's top company, Greer Corp?
23:59Greer Corp?
24:00I heard that being their business partner grants you entry into Aether AI Project's launch event.
24:08This project is tied to the country's future.
24:12Show up at its launch event and the world will see you.
24:16The whole world?
24:19Does that include Oscar?
24:23As long as she learns how much better I am compared to that loser, she'll be mine again.
24:37Mr. Eaton, here.
24:41Thanks, Ms. Greer.
24:43You're being so polite.
24:45Can we call each other by our first names?
24:49Okay?
24:50Sure.
24:51That's great.
24:52Oscar, my grandpa said that you hurt your back nine years ago.
24:57What happened?
25:00It doesn't matter anymore.
25:03Hmm.
25:13Irene, once the deal is sealed, you should repay Mr. Paxton.
25:18There's no need for that.
25:19It's no big deal.
25:21Comparison can hurt.
25:22Everyone knows Mr. Paxton saved your life on that mountain nine years ago
25:25and is stressing over your future now.
25:28Yet Oscar is pretending to be loyal while leaving you all alone.
25:36Look!
25:37That's Mr. Greer's car!
25:38Whoever's in there must be Greer Corp's new CEO!
25:41I heard that he's only showing up today.
25:45Everyone at Greer Corp are dying to see what he looks like.
25:48Wow!
25:49You must hold a high post in the company
25:51to be able to schedule a meeting for Irene with him.
25:56Of course.
25:58As long as I secure this deal
26:01and earn a spot at the Aether AI Project launch event,
26:05I will finally get to meet Oscar again.
26:13There's no chevote any every day.
26:14Oscar is next.
26:14Oscar!放送
26:25me down converted to a meeting. Alaine,
26:25I'll submit the documents at the Vault. Oscar?!
26:43Oscar!
26:44Irene, are you sure that's him? There's no way Oscar will write a rose voice.
26:48I'm sure! It's him!
26:52Irene! Forget about him. There is not much time left.
26:56What are you waiting for? You finally have a chance! To work with Greer Group now!
27:01Isn't growing your own company your dream since you were young?
27:05We're running out of time.
27:08Fine. If you're still worried, we'll check the footage once the meeting is over. Okay?
27:16Alright.
27:22Mr. Connor, it's me.
27:25Mr. Paxton, may I help you?
27:36The new CEO should be here already, right? Why hasn't he shown up?
27:41He should have arrived by now. I've been waiting for a long time, too.
27:46Mr. Connor, may I ask, what is the CEO's name?
27:50I'm not sure what his first name is, but I heard his last name is Eaton.
27:54Huh?
27:55Eaton?
28:02Is Oscar Greer Corp's new CEO?
28:05Eaton? If he's the CEO of Greer Corp, he can't be too young, right?
28:10I think he would be at least 40. I've never seen him myself, so I can't comment.
28:17In that case, it can't be Oscar.
28:21Even if he's 40 already, being the CEO at that age is still very impressive.
28:26Indeed. Mr. Greer had left the position vacant for eight years. Just for him.
28:32Eight years?
28:34That's right. Mr. Greer often praises him. He also said he's a prodigy in the AI field. He was already
28:41a genius back in school.
28:42Then he must have been famous and successful these past eight years. But why did Greer Corp hire him only
28:50now?
28:51Well, he once gave up on his dream to serve the woman he loved. He only accepted the offer a
28:57year ago, after going through heartbreak.
29:00He gave up his future just for a woman? Oh, how I wish I could meet a good man like
29:06that.
29:14Huh?
29:16Okay, got it.
29:20Alright, Mr. Eaton is already in the CEO's office. I have to go now.
29:24Mr. Eaton is here?
29:25Mr. Connor! Mr. Connor, please do me a favor. I'll repay you however you want.
29:32All I need you to do is to put in a good word for me with Mr. Eaton.
29:37What are you doing? I can't take it.
29:39Mr. Connor, please.
29:45Uh, I'll go for a quick smoke. You have ten minutes, alright?
29:49Alright.
29:56It's settled.
29:57Power is the best wedding gift a man can offer. Mr. Paxton is one in a million. So don't hesitate.
30:03Just marry him already.
30:06But I...
30:07What would that look?
30:09Don't tell me you're still into that loser.
30:11Merely begins...
30:11What would that look like?
30:11It's a bad guy.
30:11If you want to just be able to be able to be out for you.
