00:00:03Why is he so desperate to see us?

00:00:05I don't know, but it's me.

00:00:06Wait, what did you tell him?

00:00:07Not a word.

00:00:11Father.

00:00:14I don't have a lot of time.

00:00:16I'm sure I won't last the night.

00:00:20Dad, our stock's been tanking.

00:00:22It's been three days now.

00:00:23The Carters are going to lose everything.

00:00:26Dad, Claire's still out cold at the hospital.

00:00:29Please, you have to hold on.

00:00:30You can't leave her like this.

00:00:31I'm begging you.

00:00:33It seems that heaven is done with the Carters.

00:00:36A century of legacy is all going up in smoke.

00:00:40And on my watch...

00:00:43No, Mr. Carter.

00:00:44You're a good, honest, and decent man.

00:00:46I know heaven won't turn its back on you.

00:01:13I, Alan Carter, of Silver Lake, offer my life a virtue and final breath a sacrifice.

00:01:26I humbly summon the Paul-Bearer.

00:01:32What's wrong with Dad?

00:01:34What Paul-Bearer?

00:01:35I've heard the old-timers talk about it.

00:01:38The Paul-Bearer guides the dead and can only be summoned by the most virtuous.

00:01:43I know no one can bring him here, let alone face him.

00:01:46Oh, please, that's enough.

00:01:48I think the old man's gone senile.

00:01:50It's the final surge, just nonsense.

00:01:52Keep it down.

00:01:58He's here!

00:01:59He's here!

00:02:00Everyone out!

00:02:02Leave us alone!

00:02:03Go now!

00:02:05Sir, ma'am, please.

00:02:14The Paul-Bearer doesn't take bowels from the living.

00:02:21Mr. Hubert, it really is you!

00:02:24Alan Carter, your time has come.

00:02:27Today is your last day with the living.

00:02:29I'm here to guide you over to the other side.

00:02:32You have lived your life well.

00:02:34Your virtue will shield your kin.

00:02:36The first incense will help the Carter secure the family fortune.

00:02:46Hello?

00:02:47What?

00:02:48The stock just kite-rocketed?

00:02:49And the bank approved the extension?

00:02:51The second incense will keep the youngest Carter safe.

00:02:56Hello?

00:02:58Really, Dr. Fisher?

00:02:59The surgery was a success!

00:03:01Claire's gonna be okay!

00:03:02Thank you so much!

00:03:03Oh, that's great!

00:03:05All right!

00:03:05Unbelievable!

00:03:06It's a miracle!

00:03:09This is the Lifetime Incense.

00:03:11It burns for 15 minutes.

00:03:13For your lifelong kindness, I can grant you one final wish.

00:03:16What is it that your heart desires?

00:03:24I will say my final wish.

00:03:26Please, Mr. Hubert, marry my granddaughter, Claire Carter, and join our family!

00:03:35I'm the Underworld Pallbearer.

00:03:37I walk beyond mortal fate.

00:03:39I owe the living nothing.

00:03:40I will not grant this.

00:03:42I am aware that the Carter's luck has run dry.

00:03:45For three years, misfortune will hunt us down.

00:03:48My bloodline has been marked for death.

00:03:51I'm not really asking for a real marriage.

00:03:54I just want to use the Union as shield.

00:03:57I beg you, protect us from the next three years.

00:03:59Help my family survive the oncoming slaughter.

00:04:03I offer a lifetime of virtue in exchange.

00:04:06Even if the consequence is that I'm barred from rebirth, I'm willing to pay the ultimate price.

00:04:11If virtue is to be the price, the pact is made.

00:04:14I accept.

00:04:15I'll shield the Carter's, but only for three years.

00:04:18After that, the marriage will end and our debt is settled.

00:04:21My deepest thanks, Paul Bearer!

00:04:30Long shadows for the living, an even flame for the dead.

00:04:34One death per year, extinction in three.

00:04:37A total ruin, indeed.

00:04:43Alan, you have my word.

00:04:45I will carry your house through this trial.

00:04:50So you're the one Grandpa brought to save us?

00:05:00You and I aren't married.

00:05:02You are not a Carter, so just stay away from the altar, you got that?

00:05:07You must be Claire.

00:05:08The old man must have lost his mind.

00:05:10Imagine betrothing Claire to this random penniless loser on his deathbed.

00:05:15He's worth less than an errand boy.

00:05:17The Carters are an elite family in Silver Lake.

00:05:19This marriage dad arranged is an absolute embarrassment.

00:05:22This is so unbelievable.

00:05:25Really now?

00:05:25Ma'am, before he passed, Mr. Carter added Mr. Eubert to the family registry as Claire's fiancée.

00:05:31He has every right to be at the altar.

00:05:37Dad, Mom, I refuse to marry him.

00:05:40Please, Henry, if you force Claire to marry this man, I'm leaving you for good.

00:05:44Keep quiet.

00:05:44My dad isn't cold yet.

00:05:45Defying him now would be social suicide.

00:05:48Once the three-year mourning's over, we'll throw him out in the street.

00:05:58Mr. Eubert, please step forward.

00:06:05This seal will hold misfortune up, Bade.

00:06:08On the third anniversary, I will lead the great ritual to break the Carter curse forever.

00:06:34What took you so long?

00:06:36I'm starving here.

00:06:37Well, you wanted fresh fish from the market, so I had to go to South City Market.

00:06:41Just look at you.

00:06:42Three years as a house husband, doing nothing else but cooking in the kitchen and cleaning the house.

00:06:47You're totally a lost cause.

00:06:49How did we get stuck with a son-in-law like you?

00:06:52Look, Kyle, it's been three years already.

00:06:55I'm not getting any younger, and I want a baby.

00:06:59Are you saying?

00:07:01I do want a baby, but just not with you.

00:07:06I do want a baby, but just not with you.

00:07:10Kyle, what does that mean?

00:07:11Are you deaf or something?

00:07:12You heard, Claire.

00:07:13The Carters need to produce an heir that's worthy.

00:07:15How could a loser like you possibly offer that?

00:07:18Look, Kyle, I tolerated you for three years as Grandpa's final wish, but I'm very ambitious.

00:07:24I won't waste my life on a man who likes to play chef.

00:07:26Calling it off again?

00:07:28Well, of course.

00:07:29I need a man who can actually strongly lead, and that will never be you.

00:07:33Just three days left.

00:07:34I have to save them.

00:07:35I can't leave them here.

00:07:36I won't agree to this.

00:07:38Have you no shame?

00:07:39We've kept you around for three long years.

00:07:41That's the only stroke of luck you'll ever have.

00:07:43So what now?

00:07:44You plan to leech off of us forever?

00:07:45I gave old Carter my word, so I'm seeing this through.

00:07:49You'd better stop flattering yourself.

00:07:51The old man was senile.

00:07:52I'm sure he only used you as some sort of lucky charm.

00:07:55Admit it.

00:07:56You're just after the Carter fortune.

00:07:58I really couldn't care less about money or any of that.

00:08:01I'm still not walking away from this engagement.

00:08:03Listen.

00:08:04If you try to ruin me, I hope you don't expect me to play fair.

00:08:17You and I are still engaged, yet you're replacing me?

00:08:21Oh, Kyle.

00:08:22If not for Grandpa's will, I would have married Jaden years ago.

00:08:26The Prescots are Silver Lake's wealthiest.

00:08:28When Claire marries him, that South City project is going to be ours for sure.

00:08:32You're utterly useless.

00:08:33Just face it.

00:08:34Don't ruin this family's future.

00:08:36I can get that project.

00:08:38I'll help secure it for you.

00:08:40Unbelievable.

00:08:41Stop dreaming, will you?

00:08:42You don't even work.

00:08:43I'll get it.

00:08:44You'll have the contract by tomorrow.

00:08:50Claire, that deal is tomorrow.

00:08:52That loser is just trying to stall.

00:08:54He'll ruin everything.

00:08:56What do we do?

00:08:57We have one day left.

00:08:58I'll force him out if I have to.

00:09:14Mr. Hubert, you're here late.

00:09:16Forgive the poor welcome.

00:09:18Let's cut to the chase.

00:09:19I heard you were unwell, so I'm here to help.

00:09:21But first, you must do me a favor.

00:09:25Knowing that I shall have your guidance is the honor of a lifetime.

00:09:30Ask anything, and I'll do it a thousand times without any hesitation.

00:09:34The South City Project.

00:09:36Give it to the carters tomorrow.

00:09:38Sure, Mr. Hubert.

00:09:39I'll even deliver the contract to them personally.

00:09:42I won't let you down.

00:09:44Wait, Mr. Hubert!

00:09:52My legs miraculously healed.

00:09:55I can stand once again.

00:09:57I can actually stand.

00:10:02I am in your death, Mr. Hubert.

00:10:10Hello, Ms. Carter.

00:10:11Ms. Carter.

00:10:18I thought I already told you never to pick me up here.

00:10:21I was just worried.

00:10:24Ms. Carter, who is this man with you?

00:10:28He's just the driver.

00:10:29You go ahead.

00:10:30Okay.

00:10:30Bye, Ms. Carter.

00:10:32Three years engaged, and that's how you're going to introduce me?

00:10:37You have no status, no job, and no money.

00:10:40What else do you think you are to me?

00:10:42Enough.

00:10:43Just take me to the Onyx.

00:11:07Miss Carter, welcome.

00:11:10Happy third anniversary.

00:11:13I didn't think that you'd actually remember.

00:11:16No, Kyle.

00:11:17This anniversary is for Jaden and me.

00:11:20What's that?

00:11:21Three years of our engagement?

00:11:24And you were cheating on me all this time?

00:11:27You were cheating on me all this time?

00:11:29Kyle, let's be real here.

00:11:31For three years, everyone I know has seen me with Jaden in public, and they know him as my boyfriend.

00:11:41Jaden, I didn't think you'd be here so early.

00:11:45It's our third anniversary.

00:11:46How could I be late for that?

00:11:50So this must be your pathetic fiancée, playing chauffeur?

00:11:57Hey loser, stay away from Claire now.

00:12:00She's way out of your league.

00:12:02I'm the one who's engaged her.

00:12:03I should be the one telling you that.

00:12:09See, Kyle?

00:12:11No one cares if you're my fiancée.

00:12:13Jaden's the one I love.

00:12:14Have some pride and just stop pestering me.

00:12:16I hope you heard that, you loser.

00:12:19The unwanted sip here is the only obvious clown.

00:12:23Whatever.

00:12:24Shall we go?

00:12:24He's not worth our time.

00:12:30Damn it, woman.

00:12:31Are you blind or what?

00:12:32What the?

00:12:33I'm so sorry.

00:12:34Well.

00:12:36Watch where you're going next time.

00:12:38Do you not know who I am?

00:12:39I don't even damn who you are.

00:12:43Jaden!

00:12:45Jaden!

00:12:50I want him!

00:12:54Hold on.

00:12:55Let's just talk this out, man.

00:12:57No need for violence.

00:12:59Look at this coward.

00:13:00Trying to play the hero, kid?

00:13:02Hey boys, break his smug face.

00:13:04The girl's with us now.

00:13:06Wait!

00:13:07Go, go, hear me!

00:13:08Stop it!

00:13:13Fine.

00:13:14We'll just start with you then.

00:13:17Let's move now.

00:13:18Wait, but what about Kyle?

00:13:19Don't forget him.

00:13:20If he wants to show up, then just let them teach him a lesson.

00:13:24But you and I should go.

00:13:28Claire, we've been together three years.

00:13:31How can you just leave me like this?

00:13:34Some hero you must be.

00:13:35Your girl didn't even look back.

00:13:42Kyle, the gifts you give me,

00:13:44they only make me feel sick.

00:13:46Are you ready?

00:13:54Stop following me, will you?

00:13:55You're pathetic.

00:14:12I'm going to call for backup, boss!

00:14:15I'm going to call for backup, boss!

00:14:15Tomorrow marks three years since Alan Carter passed.

00:14:20Claire, after the great ritual, I'm done with you.

00:14:22Happy third anniversary!

00:14:29So, Claire, I'd really love for you to be mine tonight.

00:14:35Jayden, Kyla's still out there.

00:14:38So what if...

00:14:40Claire, don't tell me you're thinking about that guy.

00:14:44You don't care about him, do you?

00:14:46Of course not! It's just...

00:14:47He did help us out there.

00:14:49If it weren't for him, we wouldn't even have run into those thugs!

00:14:55Don't kill the moon now.

00:14:57Today's our anniversary.

00:15:02Jayden, my engagement to Kyle isn't technically over yet.

00:15:07That guy's just a big loser.

00:15:09Why are you so worried about him, Claire?

00:15:11How much longer am I supposed to wait for you, huh?

00:15:15After all that humiliation, I'm sure he'll dump me.

00:15:19Jayden, no matter what happens, I'm marrying you.

00:15:22Do you think you can lock in the South City Project for us?

00:15:28Consider it done, babe.

00:15:29You'll see.

00:15:37Keith, what's up?

00:15:39Any word on the South City Project?

00:15:41Jayden, I'm sorry, but my grandpa gave it to someone else.

00:15:48That's impossible, Keith.

00:15:50Besides the press cards, who else could have possibly taken it?

00:15:55Besides the press cards, who else could have possibly taken it?

00:15:57I'm really not sure.

00:15:59Grandpa said it was a personal favor for a VIP.

00:16:01Personal favor for a VIP?

00:16:04He's already at the top and has everything he wants.

00:16:06Who else could he be indebted to?

00:16:15Claire, we landed the South City Project.

00:16:18Dad, are you sure about that?

00:16:20Yes, I'm dead serious.

00:16:21Not only that, Mr. Sinclair showed up too.

00:16:24He said to call him directly if we ever need anything.

00:16:26This is great.

00:16:27Really great.

00:16:28Honestly, I had no idea.

00:16:30Jayden could pull strings so easily and so fast too.

00:16:33Claire, don't let him slip away.

00:16:36We need to fast track this wedding.

00:16:40Oh, well.

00:16:46Oh, Claire.

00:16:47Jayden, you're incredible.

00:16:49The South City Project is officially ours.

00:16:51Wait, so you actually got it?

00:16:54Does that mean I'm the VIP?

00:16:57Bolt Sinclair did me a favor?

00:17:01Jayden, you've been so good to me.

00:17:03How could I ever repay you?

00:17:04I know.

00:17:06How about you marry me tonight, Claire?

00:17:10Jayden, stop it!

00:17:12I'm not ready for this yet.

00:17:17What are you doing?

00:17:20If you want to dump that loser, I'll make it easy.

00:17:23Let's make that simp of yours.

00:17:25Watch while his fiancée cheats on him with his very own eyes.

00:17:28I bet he'll call it off then.

00:17:48Stop it!

00:17:50Kyle, what's wrong with you?

00:17:51He treats you like trash.

00:17:53Why are you siding with him?

00:17:55Listen, whatever Jayden and I do is none of your business.

00:17:58So I'm the one ruining everything for you then?

00:18:02Exactly.

00:18:03You're the one who's been standing in the way this whole time.

00:18:08All right, fine.

00:18:11Consider our engagement over.

00:18:23Well, finally, he's walking away for good now.

00:18:27Three years of being engaged.

00:18:30What made him change his mind?

00:18:33This is perfect.

00:18:35Such great news.

00:18:36I'm glad that loser finally decided to end your engagement.

00:18:39So, Jayden, I feel strongly that you and Claire are truly a match made in heaven.

00:18:45I'm happy that our daughter found a real winner by choosing him.

00:18:50Not only is Claire set for life, the Prescott's help guarantees our family's comeback.

00:18:56Mr. and Mrs. Carter, don't worry.

00:18:58I'll make sure that Claire will want for nothing.

00:19:02Good.

00:19:03Oh, wait.

00:19:04Claire, tomorrow is the memorial.

00:19:07The whole family will gather together.

00:19:10It's a great chance to take the floor and announce your engagement to Jayden.

00:19:14Great.

00:19:15I love that idea.

00:19:21It is time.

00:19:22Memorial rites begin now.

00:19:25The first bow is for our ancestors' grace.

00:19:28The second bow is to honor this man's legacy and love.

00:19:35The third bow is for him to always watch over this family.

00:19:40Eldest son, grandson-in-law.

00:19:43Come forward to lead us.

00:19:51May I have your attention?

00:19:53I'd like to introduce Claire's fiancé.

00:19:55The heir to the Prescott group.

00:19:57Jayden Prescott.

00:19:58As of today, he's the eldest grandson-in-law of the Carters.

00:20:01What?

00:20:02Grandson-in-law?

00:20:04Hi, everyone.

00:20:05I'm Jayden.

00:20:06And I'm honored to now officially be part of this family.

00:20:10I thought Claire was engaged to Kyle Hubert.

00:20:13Who even is this Prescott guy?

00:20:16Congratulations.

00:20:17What a perfect match, indeed.

00:20:19I think that Jayden Prescott is quite the catch.

00:20:22I mean, clearly, these two were made for one another.

00:20:25You know what I'm saying?

00:20:26Congratulations.

00:20:27Ellen Carter, our three-year pact is up.

00:20:30I'll perform the great ritual to break your family's curse.

00:20:33My debt to you will finally be paid in full.

00:20:36Congratulations, huh?

00:20:48Wait, stop!

00:20:49Kyle!

00:20:50You agreed to call off the engagement.

00:20:52So why are you here?

00:20:53I'm a man of my word.

00:20:55Once I pay my respects, I'll be gone for good.

00:20:59Look, Kyle.

00:21:00I'm the one who's part of this family now.

00:21:02Who do you think you are, huh?

00:21:04You don't belong here, so better scram.

00:21:06I made a promise, and I intend to keep it.

00:21:09Kyle, please don't make a scene.

00:21:11Everyone here is watching.

00:21:12Are you trying to embarrass us?

00:21:14Embarrass you?

00:21:15I'm doing this to save the Carter family.

00:21:18Save the Carter family?

00:21:19Nice try, Kyle, but no one here is buying that.

00:21:22Everyone here knows you're just desperate to gain attention.

00:21:25Loser, don't use my dad as an excuse.

00:21:28Today, I'm ending this force you put on once and for all.

00:21:32Claire?

00:21:37Your name will be struck from the family registry.

00:21:41The pact I made was our only bond.

00:21:44No more after this.

00:21:45No more ties.

00:21:46It all ends today.

00:21:48Hmph.

00:21:49I say good riddance.

00:21:58I can't believe a life of virtue was wasted on a family like this.

00:22:03Your luck has just run out, I'm afraid.

00:22:06Hmph.

00:22:06Come on now.

00:22:07Jayden, write your name in the registry.

00:22:10Let's make it official and become our newest member of the Carter family.

00:22:21Well, it's official now.

00:22:23I'm the real grandson-in-law now.

00:22:27Jayden, may you step up and lead us.

00:22:32If anyone dares to take the lead from me, the Carters will all be finished.

00:22:38The Carters will all be finished.

00:22:40You!

00:22:44Look, Kyle.

00:22:45Even if you resent me, we spent three years together.

00:22:48How could you curse my family?

00:22:50You really are unbelievable.

00:22:53Fine.

00:22:54Suit yourselves.

00:22:55Just don't regret it later.

00:23:00Huh?

00:23:01Heh!

00:23:01Ungrateful bastard!

00:23:03He's been a freeloader for three goddamn years.

00:23:05Then on his way out, he curses us?

00:23:07What rotten luck.

00:23:10Jayden, please light the incense.

00:23:24Hold Mr. Carter, you misjudged them three years ago.

00:23:28But don't worry.

00:23:28As the family's new son-in-law, I, Jayden Prescott, will leave this family now.

00:23:44What the heck's happening?

00:23:48What the heck's happening?

00:23:50It's so scary.

00:23:55The incense!

00:23:56The first stick went out!

00:23:59The first stick's out.

00:24:00Your wealth will dry up.

00:24:02You have brought this upon yourselves.

00:24:06The ash cattered!

00:24:08The offering bolt cracked!

00:24:09That's a sign of financial ruin!

00:24:11Henry!

00:24:12Go and relight the incense!

00:24:14Hurry up!

00:24:14Go now!

00:24:15Go!

00:24:18Henry!

00:24:19Henry!

00:24:19The second stick's out.

00:24:22The family line will now be cut off.

00:24:47The carters are finished.

00:24:55What's happening?

00:24:56Oh no!

00:24:57What is going on?

00:25:00Oh no!

00:25:02Ouch!

00:25:03Dad!

00:25:04What is that?

00:25:08Crows flying!

00:25:09Ants swarming!

00:25:10The family will perish!

00:25:11The carters!

00:25:12The carters are doomed!

00:25:18Run!

00:25:19Run!

00:25:20Let's go!

00:25:20Hey!

00:25:20Where are you going?

00:25:21Hey!

00:25:22Wait!

00:25:25Honey!

00:25:26What on earth is going on?

00:25:28Could it be?

00:25:29Our family is really in serious trouble?

00:25:31Nonsense!

00:25:32It's just a coincidence.

00:25:34Don't think of such things.

00:25:36Mom!

00:25:37You really shouldn't listen to the guests.

00:25:39It's superstition!

00:25:40What bad omens could there be?

00:25:42You're right.

00:25:43It's just superstition.

00:25:44Someone's clearly stirring things up.

00:25:48Mr. and Mrs. Carter.

00:25:49Mr. and Mrs. Carter, don't you worry.

00:25:50Now that I'm in the registry, from here on end, I'm one of you.

00:25:54With me here, the Carter family will get stronger and rise to glory.

00:26:00Jaden's absolutely right.

00:26:01Who says it's a bad omen?

00:26:03It looks like a blessing to me.

00:26:05Jaden and Claire are going to be married.

00:26:07I think our family might just get to turn things around.

00:26:11Yes, exactly.

00:26:12It's a blessing for sure.

00:26:14We should strike while the iron's hot.

00:26:16The first day of the next month is a lucky date.

00:26:19Let's hold the engagement back with that day.

00:26:21Jaden, dear, what do you think?

00:26:23That's a great idea.

00:26:25Player, at last we can be together openly.

00:26:30Kyle, will you regret this?

00:26:46Relax.

00:26:47I'm leaving soon enough.

00:26:49You're a useless bum.

00:26:50Always stalling and ruining our family.

00:26:52Just get out already.

00:26:54I ruined your family?

00:26:55If you hadn't jinxed us earlier, would I have this injury?

00:26:57So damn unlucky.

00:27:00You're the ones who are too stubborn to listen to reason.

00:27:03The omens you saw were just warnings.

00:27:06More bad luck is still to come.

00:27:08That's enough, Kyle.

00:27:09Why must you keep cursing our family?

00:27:11We were engaged for three years.

00:27:13Why do you have to be so cruel?

00:27:14I have said my piece.

00:27:16You take care of yourselves.

00:27:17I hope you don't regret things later.

00:27:22Here are the house keys and the rest of my allowance.

00:27:35I just gave you $10,000.

00:27:37Now it's only $16,80.

00:27:40You useless bum.

00:27:41Where did all the money go?

00:27:42You freeloaded from this family for three years and still spent our money?

00:27:49This is the leg.

00:27:51What kind of nonsense is this?

00:27:57Hey, wait!

00:27:59Miss Carter, what else is there?

00:28:02For the sake of the three years we spent together, if you apologize for that nonsense earlier, I will let

00:28:08you stay with my family.

00:28:09Stay with your family?

00:28:10Mm-hmm.

00:28:11That's right.

00:28:12You can then be the cook or the house manager.

00:28:14Meals and lodging plus 5,000 monthly.

00:28:17Better than you wandering out in the streets.

00:28:20You want me as a cook?

00:28:21You can save your kindness for someone willing to be humiliated.

00:28:27Such an ungrateful bastard.

00:28:29Hey, Kyle, you're gonna regret this.

00:28:31Leave our family and you'll be nothing.

00:28:47What just happened?

00:28:50What just happened?

00:28:53Oh, that girl.

00:28:55You spoiled or rotten.

00:28:59Into thin air.

00:29:00He must have ran off so fast and you just missed it.

00:29:03You're right.

00:29:04Maybe I did see it wrong.

00:29:18This must be where Mr. Hubert stays, yes.

00:29:21Mr. Sinclair?

00:29:22What is he doing here?

00:29:26Mr. Sinclair, it's good to see you.

00:29:28We're honored by your visit.

00:29:30You should have let us know you were coming.

00:29:31Mr. Sinclair, about the South City Project.

00:29:34Thanks for stepping in.

00:29:35We were even planning to thank you in person.

00:29:37No, it was nothing.

00:29:37Mr. Carter, Ms. Carter, you flatter me.

00:29:39I only succeeded thanks to your family.

00:29:41Someone extraordinary is watching over you.

00:29:43You are blessed.

00:29:44Many great thanks await your family indeed.

00:29:47Oh, Mr. Sinclair, the person you're referring to is...

00:29:52Oh, Mr. Sinclair, the person you're referring to is...

00:29:56Oh, that person is actually your family's son-in-law.

00:29:59The reason I came is to pay him a visit.

00:30:01Mr. Carter, would you kindly bring me to him?

00:30:05Could that person he's referring to be Kyle?

00:30:08Nonsense.

00:30:08That useless one was already kicked out.

00:30:11Jade is already part of the family, so it must be him.

00:30:14Mr. Sinclair, we're sorry.

00:30:16He's not here right now, and you came all this way.

00:30:19Well, that's quite a pity.

00:30:21That's all right.

00:30:22I'll come and visit some other time.

00:30:24Mr. Sinclair, my daughter Claire is getting married three days from now.

00:30:28We just thought and sincerely hope that you'd accept to be the officiant.

00:30:33Mr. Hubert's wedding?

00:30:34Looks like the quarters are in for good luck.

00:30:36Officiating for Mr. Hubert would be my great honor.

00:30:40Thank you so much for the invitation.

00:30:42I gladly accept and I'll be there on time to officiate.

00:30:52Goodbye.

00:30:53Take care.

00:30:57I didn't expect Jaden to be this capable.

00:31:00Even someone like old Mr. Sinclair treats him with such respect.

00:31:03The Prescott's may be the richest in Silver Lake,

00:31:06although compared to the Sinclairs, they're not even close.

00:31:08So why would he treat Jaden with so much respect?

00:31:13What other reason could there be?

00:31:15Jaden's connections are very impressive.

00:31:18If only Kyle had even half of Jaden's resources.

00:31:22Things would have been so different.

00:31:24Oh, God.

00:31:25That useless bum has no skills but was arrogant.

00:31:28Without our family's generosity,

00:31:29he would have just starved to death.

00:31:31All right, let's head back in.

00:31:33Let's go.

00:32:00It is I, Sam Ashford,

00:32:02seeking an audience with a pallbearer.

00:32:13You're here, Mr. Hubert.

00:32:15Greetings, pallbearer.

00:32:23Sam Ashford,

00:32:24you used blood incense to summon me.

00:32:26What do you seek?

00:32:27My time is running out.

00:32:29My family, sadly, is cursed.

00:32:32Our fortune is collapsing.

00:32:34Please, you must help us by breaking the curse that haunts us.

00:32:37That's fate cutting incense.

00:32:38It brings fortune to ruin.

00:32:40Anyone struck by this loses all income.

00:32:42Money drains away.

00:32:44Within three months, your family will be completely ruined.

00:32:49Mr. Hubert, I think you're absolutely right.

00:32:51This terrible curse has haunted my family for almost a year.

00:32:55Every time our business improves, disaster always strikes.

00:32:58It's really like walking on thin ice.

00:33:02Life has been worse than death.

00:33:03That's why I, Sam Ashford,

00:33:05am willing to use the family's 100 years of protecting Silver Lake

00:33:07as merit to ask you to break this family curse

00:33:10and save my family from this disaster.

00:33:13Sam Ashford,

00:33:14you've funded 22 schools

00:33:16as well as 10 nursing homes.

00:33:18The good you've done

00:33:19is enough to bless three generations.

00:33:22I will stay with your family

00:33:23as a consultant for three months

00:33:25and help you break the curse.

00:33:26Thank you so much, sir.

00:33:28Thank you so much, really.

00:33:34Kath!

00:33:40Kath,

00:33:41Mr. Hubert, here is

00:33:42my guest of honor.

00:33:46Grandpa,

00:33:47are you okay?

00:33:47Ah,

00:33:48don't you worry.

00:33:49Kath,

00:33:50did you prepare everything already

00:33:52like I asked you?

00:33:53I did, Grandpa.

00:33:54Everything's ready.

00:34:03This is the key

00:34:04to a limited edition luxury car,

00:34:06the Dark Knight Phantom.

00:34:07There's only one in the world.

00:34:08You can use it if you like.

00:34:09No need.

00:34:10I travel my own way.

00:34:11This thing would always slow me down.

00:34:15I've been told you like the quiet.

00:34:16Grandpa found an old house

00:34:18in West Hill.

00:34:18It used to belong to a scholar

00:34:19and we've restored it.

00:34:21There's tea growing in the yard

00:34:22and there's a natural hot spring as well.

00:34:25How thoughtful.

00:34:26But I'm staying with your family,

00:34:27so I have no need

00:34:28for another place.

00:34:35This black card has no spending limit.

00:34:37It's global.

00:34:38Just give the card number.

00:34:40Please do accept it.

00:34:41These are just material things.

00:34:43All I need here

00:34:43is a quiet guest room.

00:34:45You may all go.

00:34:47I have been very foolish

00:34:49using worldly things

00:34:51only to offend you.

00:34:52I know I deserve punishment.

00:34:54Mr. Hubert,

00:34:55I am but an old man now

00:34:57and not very mobile.

00:34:58I can't personally look after you.

00:35:02My granddaughter, Kath,

00:35:03is well-mannered

00:35:04and gentle by nature.

00:35:06Let her be the one

00:35:06to accompany you

00:35:07and take care of

00:35:09whatever you may need.

00:35:14Mr. Hubert,

00:35:15this is the guest room

00:35:16we prepared.

00:35:17If you ever need anything,

00:35:18please just let us know.

00:35:22This would suffice.

00:35:24No need to fuss.

00:35:25Luxury cars,

00:35:26old mansions,

00:35:27black cards.

00:35:28Those are things

00:35:29most people can only dream of.

00:35:31Yet he doesn't care for them.

00:35:32What kind of man is he?

00:35:34To want nothing

00:35:34of these riches.

00:35:43Claire,

00:35:44what's the matter?

00:35:45Here, drink some water.

00:35:46Hurry now.

00:35:52Why were there bones in the fish?

00:35:54What are you people doing?

00:35:55Ma'am.

00:35:56Well,

00:35:57fish naturally have bones.

00:35:58Don't you think I know that?

00:36:00Why didn't you remove them?

00:36:01What's the point

00:36:02of keeping you around, huh?

00:36:05I removed the bones.

00:36:06Go on and eat.

00:36:09Back when Kyle cooked fish,

00:36:11he'd always take out

00:36:12every single bone for me.

00:36:13That loser.

00:36:14Useless at everything.

00:36:15Although,

00:36:16he was pretty skilled at cooking.

00:36:17That's really all

00:36:18he was good for.

00:36:19Mom.

00:36:20Why are you all standing there?

00:36:21Take the fish back

00:36:22to the kitchen.

00:36:23Take out the bones

00:36:23and bring it back.

00:36:27Mrs. Carter,

00:36:28something bad has happened.

00:36:30What?

00:36:33What happened here?

00:36:34Why'd this happen?

00:36:35All the fish are dead.

00:36:36I honestly don't know.

00:36:38I checked the water

00:36:39in the filter last night

00:36:40like always.

00:36:41Everything was still okay.

00:36:42I was about to feed them

00:36:43and I just thought

00:36:44that they were all dead.

00:36:45Impossible.

00:36:46You must have given

00:36:47the wrong food

00:36:47or skipped a water change.

00:36:48How dare you lie about it?

00:36:50Madam,

00:36:50I didn't.

00:36:52I took care of them

00:36:53exactly like you showed me.

00:36:54I really don't know

00:36:55what went wrong.

00:36:58Madam,

00:36:58it's bad.

00:36:59All the plants

00:36:59have suddenly wilted.

00:37:00How did my plant

00:37:01end up like this?

00:37:03Claire,

00:37:04could this be that curse?

00:37:05Remember,

00:37:06everything that Kyle

00:37:07said to us

00:37:07is coming true.

00:37:08He cursed our family.

00:37:11It's bad.

00:37:12Madam,

00:37:12Miss Carter,

00:37:13Mr. Carter,

00:37:14was it a crime?

00:37:14What?

00:37:15What?

00:37:17Mr. Carter,

00:37:18thank goodness

00:37:19you and I are okay.

00:37:24Dad,

00:37:25are you alright?

00:37:25Any injuries?

00:37:26Are you scared?

00:37:27It's failed on me.

00:37:28Luckily,

00:37:28we only hit the guardrail.

00:37:31Honey,

00:37:31all the fish are dead.

00:37:33What?

00:37:33The plants have wilted too

00:37:34and now a car crash?

00:37:36Could Kyle's curse

00:37:37on our family

00:37:37be actually real?

00:37:39Huh,

00:37:39Mrs. Carter,

00:37:40that loser

00:37:41was just humiliated

00:37:42so he wanted

00:37:43to provoke and rattle you.

00:37:44Why take him seriously?

00:37:46He's a nobody.

00:37:47But,

00:37:47Jayden,

00:37:48with everything weird

00:37:49that's been happening,

00:37:50I can't help

00:37:51but feel uneasy.

00:37:52Claire,

00:37:53if you're really

00:37:54that worried,

00:37:55just leave it to me.

00:37:56I'll handle it.

00:37:57I'm gonna put

00:37:58an end to all these

00:38:00strange events

00:38:01for good.

00:38:03Listen now,

00:38:04Demon Lord.

00:38:06Get out.

00:38:07Leave at once.

00:38:08Jayden,

00:38:09will this master

00:38:10really help us?

00:38:11Can he actually

00:38:12break the curse?

00:38:14Claire,

00:38:15don't worry.

00:38:15he's the most

00:38:16powerful master

00:38:17in all of Silver Lake.

00:38:18With him here,

00:38:20there's not a single curse

00:38:21that can survive

00:38:22after he's done

00:38:23doing this.

00:38:26Evil be gone now.

00:38:28Order be restored.

00:38:34Break!

00:38:38Break!

00:38:46Everyone,

00:38:47don't worry.

00:38:47The evil

00:38:48that haunted

00:38:49this home

00:38:49is now

00:38:50completely gone.

00:38:51You can live

00:38:52about your lives

00:38:53in peace,

00:38:54finally.

00:38:55All your problems

00:38:56are over.

00:38:57Thank you,

00:38:58Master.

00:38:58I really appreciate

00:38:59your help.

00:39:00You're very welcome.

00:39:02Although,

00:39:03hmm,

00:39:05it seems that

00:39:06the energy here

00:39:07has been really off.

00:39:08The evil's gone,

00:39:09but it could use

00:39:10some positive energy.

00:39:12If you ask me,

00:39:14you should throw

00:39:14a wedding.

00:39:15Once that's over,

00:39:17Joy will chase out

00:39:18all the bad luck,

00:39:19and then

00:39:20everything will

00:39:21fall into place.

00:39:22You're right,

00:39:23Master.

00:39:23We definitely

00:39:24need a celebration.

00:39:25I'll start preparing

00:39:26the wedding room then.

00:39:27Every lucky decoration

00:39:28that I can find

00:39:29has to be in place.

00:39:31Yes,

00:39:32exactly.

00:39:33Jayden and Claire

00:39:34are already engaged.

00:39:35Getting married soon

00:39:36is ideal.

00:39:38Master,

00:39:38with your words,

00:39:39we'll finally

00:39:40feel at ease.

00:39:42I can't shake

00:39:44the feeling

00:39:44that things

00:39:45aren't that simple.

00:39:46Mr. Hubert,

00:39:47out of all these

00:39:48projects,

00:39:49which one's the best

00:39:50to invest in?

00:39:51I'm a bit out of touch,

00:39:52so I'd really

00:39:53appreciate your advice.

00:40:01Go with this one. In two weeks, the policy will favor it.

00:40:07Mr. Hubert, the market's reaction to this project has been lukewarm.

00:40:11Could this be a risky move?

00:40:13That may be. Only if you believe that it is.

00:40:16Alright, we'll follow his lead.

00:40:18Kath, will you please get the funds ready?

00:40:22Spare no expense, because we must secure exclusive rights to this project.

00:40:26Sure, I'll go do that now.

00:40:37It's bad.

00:40:40The Carter's luck has run out, and disaster is about to strike.

00:40:44Yeah, place the sign up high a little bit more.

00:40:47I want everyone in Silver Lake to know that our daughter's tying the knot with the press cots.

00:40:52Make sure it's decorated inside, too.

00:40:54Mom, don't you think that's enough?

00:40:56Going overboard isn't a good idea.

00:41:17What is that loser doing here?

00:41:21What do you think you're doing here?

00:41:23Listen carefully.

00:41:24Claire and Jayden are getting married soon.

00:41:26Don't get in the way.

00:41:27Well, I can't just stand by and watch.

00:41:29While old Mr. Carter's legacy crumbles, I am giving you one last chance to survive this.

00:41:35Look, Kyle.

00:41:36I've made up my mind to marry Jayden.

00:41:38You and I, it's over between us.

00:41:40Stop clinging to me and stop making up excuses to be with me.

00:41:43Don't worry.

00:41:44I'd never want to be with someone like you.

00:41:50This pendant I hold wards off evil.

00:41:52Take it.

00:41:53It might save your life.

00:41:54It's the last thing I can do for your grandfather.

00:42:02We don't want your pendant.

00:42:04Stop trying to scare us already.

00:42:05Now listen.

00:42:06Stay away from my daughter.

00:42:08If Jayden sees us, he might think.

00:42:10Claire's still involved with a loser like you.

00:42:12You broke the pendant.

00:42:13All hope is gone.

00:42:15I did my best and my conscience is clear.

00:42:17So from now on, your family is no longer my concern.

00:42:21I wish you good luck.

00:42:22Hey, wait!

00:42:25Hey, wait!

00:42:28What is it now?

00:42:30Tell me.

00:42:31Where'd you get that car you're driving?

00:42:32As far as I'm concerned, we're done.

00:42:34I owe you nothing.

00:42:36Listen.

00:42:37Do you even know what you have?

00:42:38It's a limited edition.

00:42:40One of a kind in the whole world.

00:42:42I don't care.

00:42:43Look, Kyle.

00:42:44I'm going to be straight with you.

00:42:46I really couldn't care less if it's stolen or a rental or whatever scam you did to get your hands

00:42:51on it.

00:42:52For your sake, give it back to its owner before you end up behind bars.

00:42:55You actually think I'm a thief?

00:42:57Of course.

00:42:57What else?

00:42:58Now I get it.

00:43:00You heard it all over town that Claire is set to marry Jayden soon.

00:43:03So you decided to get a car this impressive so you can put on a show.

00:43:07You're simply posturing.

00:43:10How pathetic.

00:43:11You are a poser.

00:43:12Listen, everyone knows it's a fact that when you left us, you were completely broke.

00:43:17So why do this?

00:43:18Why fake it to impress me?

00:43:19It only makes you look even more desperate.

00:43:22You're right.

00:43:23The three-year pact is over.

00:43:24I'm done helping the Carter family.

00:43:26Quite frankly, I wish I'd never come here.

00:43:29Wait a sec.

00:43:30A rental car like that is at least ten grand a day.

00:43:34You didn't have a single penny when you left us.

00:43:37So where did the money come from?

00:43:39Unless you stole some money from us before you decided to leave.

00:43:43If you have any proof, then go call the cops.

00:43:46You-

00:43:52The nerve of that loser talking to me like that.

00:43:57The nerve of that loser talking to me like that.

00:44:00Once I find proof that he's been stealing, I'll make sure he rots in a cell for the rest of

00:44:04his life.

00:44:07I've searched the entire house from top to bottom, but nothing is missing.

00:44:11Claire, are you done checking the books yet?

00:44:13Did that loser skim anything from the budget?

00:44:16Mom, just take a look at this.

00:44:20What?

00:44:21Imported cherries, 1,000.

00:44:23Makeup, 5,000.

00:44:24Bills, 5,000.

00:44:26Now this can't be right.

00:44:28Over the years, we've given that loser hundreds of thousands of our money to do whatever he wanted.

00:44:32And he hasn't kept a single cent.

00:44:34He spent every dime on us? Really?

00:44:36For three years, not a single cent of our money was ever spent on anything for him or his needs.

00:44:42His clothes and the shoes he wore were the same ones he brought with him when he arrived.

00:44:48Maybe I was overly cruel to him all along.

00:44:51He was silently sacrificing so much for this family.

00:45:22Hello?

00:45:23Hello?

00:45:24Hello? Kyle? Where are you? Get back here now!

00:45:27Listen, Claire. Have you forgotten?

00:45:28We're no longer engaged.

00:45:32There's a thunderstorm and I'm scared.

00:45:34And what has that got to do with me?

00:45:35In the past, he would always stay with me.

00:45:40Hey, Kyle.

00:45:41Thunder scares me. Come stay by my bed.

00:45:54So, Kyle, could you maybe talk to me for now?

00:45:57Miss Carter, I suggest you call Jayden.

00:45:59He's your fiancé now, right?

00:46:02I...

00:46:03Unbelievable.

00:46:05How dare he hang up on me?

00:46:08Hmph.

00:46:16So, Kyle, you called me back.

00:46:18If you can apologize to me right now...

00:46:21Miss Carter, the South City's project is in trouble.

00:46:23What's that?

00:46:26Can you believe it? He's really audacious.

00:46:29This one in South City has just tested positive for toxic soil.

00:46:32The EPA has ordered for immediate shutdown.

00:46:37Fifty million!

00:46:39Everything that we have has now sunk into that hole!

00:46:45Honey!

00:46:46What are we to do now?

00:46:47We have to be strong!

00:46:48It's all because of that curse!

00:46:50I don't get it!

00:46:51The Master said our luck had finally turned!

00:46:54So how could this still be happening to us?

00:46:58Claire, Jayden!

00:47:00Go find Jayden right now!

00:47:01Only he can save us from this mess!

00:47:03He's right!

00:47:04Go quickly!

00:47:14Jayden, what's the word?

00:47:16Riverside Face One is now in the money pit.

00:47:18I'm afraid...

00:47:19But that's not what you promised me!

00:47:21You said that you would help us weather the storm!

00:47:25Claire, please don't panic!

00:47:27We're getting married soon!

00:47:28I'm going to talk to my dad!

00:47:30I'm sure he wouldn't leave his future in-laws hanging like this!

00:47:34Really?

00:47:36Trust me, but if I ever lied!

00:47:39Once we get you pregnant, he'll have every reason to help bail out your family!

00:47:46He'll have every reason to help bail out your family!

00:47:53What the hell, Claire?

00:47:55We're about to get married and you're still cold towards me!

00:47:58Jayden!

00:47:58Given the situation, how's that even on your mind?

00:48:06Jayden!

00:48:06The wedding is days away!

00:48:08I have too much on my plate!

00:48:09I have to go!

00:48:15Mr. Hubert, please!

00:48:24Grandpa!

00:48:27The investment paid off!

00:48:28It's skyrocketing!

00:48:29Oh, really?

00:48:31It was the one Mr. Hubert picked out!

00:48:33You really are a genius!

00:48:35Mr. Hubert, you've saved our family legacy!

00:48:38Please, accept my gratitude!

00:48:40There's no need for that!

00:48:42Wait until I've broken this curse before you thank me!

00:48:45I am in your debt!

00:48:47Mr. Hubert, I'm sorry!

00:48:49I never should have doubted you!

00:48:51Think nothing of it!

00:48:55Excuse me, this just arrived, sir!

00:48:57It's an invitation to the Prescott's wedding!

00:48:59The Prescott's?

00:49:00They're patriarch and our schoolmates and our youth!

00:49:03For an occasion like this, I will have to be there in person!

00:49:06Listen, listen, you're still fragile.

00:49:08I think you shouldn't go.

00:49:11I'll be fine, Mr. Hubert.

00:49:13I may be frail, but I can still manage a short trip like this one.

00:49:18The wedding you plan to attend isn't a celebration.

00:49:21It's a death trial.

00:49:22In the state you're in, it'll consume you.

00:49:25There will be no return.

00:49:31Mr. Hubert, the Carters were doing perfectly fine.

00:49:34How did something this series happen?

00:49:36They've already been plagued by misfortune three years ago.

00:49:40Old Mr. Carter used his life's merits to secure three years of protection.

00:49:44Now those three years are over, but the Carters showed no gratitude and doomed themselves.

00:49:48There's no way out of this.

00:49:49This misfortune will erupt in full.

00:49:51Well, what exactly will happen to them?

00:49:53They will lose everything.

00:49:55Their bloodline will end.

00:49:57They will be wiped out.

00:49:58Hubert!

00:49:59At this wedding event, there will be bloodshed.

00:50:02There will be bloodshed.

00:50:05If the Prescott's are with the Carters, won't they be dragged into it?

00:50:08Jaden already added his name to the Carter genealogy.

00:50:11His fate is now tied to theirs.

00:50:13He won't be able to escape the Carters' misfortune.

00:50:18Dad, did you say that once I started a family, you'd let me invest in the Port Project?

00:50:23Why'd you change your mind now?

00:50:27The Port Project?

00:50:28Haven't you already done enough to ruin our family?

00:50:33Look at the projects you previously handled.

00:50:35Every single one of them ended in total loss.

00:50:38How dare you bring up investments with me?

00:50:46How is this possible?

00:50:47How could every project end in failure?

00:50:52Why was I given a son as hopeless as you?

00:50:54Our entire family fortune will be squandered by you soon enough!

00:50:58Dad, these project problems were all acts of nature and accidents.

00:51:03They were all beyond my control!

00:51:04Beyond your control?

00:51:05So, ever since you joined the company, every project you handled has had issues!

00:51:11You overreach but underperform!

00:51:12You won't take any advice!

00:51:14You're always rushing and restless, looking for shortcuts!

00:51:16And even if these projects didn't fail, with your character, we'd all be ruined sooner or later!

00:51:22Dad, please give me one more chance!

00:51:24Just trust me again!

00:51:26There's the Silver Lake Merchant Alliance!

00:51:28If I can secure a Port Project, I'll be guaranteed profit!

00:51:31Please give me this one chance!

00:51:36That Port Project will be a tough one!

00:51:38All eyes are on it!

00:51:40If you fail again, it won't be just you!

00:51:43Our whole family will be affected and dragged into the Abyss, never to recover!

00:51:47Dad, don't you worry!

00:51:49I stayed up for three nights straight to do research on this project!

00:51:52I've secured every single channel!

00:51:54I checked every risk multiple times just to make sure!

00:51:56If I secure it, I'll be very profitable!

00:51:59I can fully restore our family and bring the honor!

00:52:02This is your last chance, Jayden!

00:52:04It's also our family's last chance!

00:52:12Oh, do it there!

00:52:14Stick it there!

00:52:14Maybe half an inch to the left!

00:52:18That's it!

00:52:19This wedding sign must be placed perfectly straight!

00:52:22Because it can bring good luck!

00:52:27Oh no, Claire, dear!

00:52:30Please stop pacing around!

00:52:31You're making me dizzy!

00:52:32You two may leave now!

00:52:37Come on, don't worry so much, huh?

00:52:39I mean, Jayden already promised us, didn't he?

00:52:42That he'll help our family clean up our mess concerning the South City Project, right?

00:52:46But, Mom, this time it's different!

00:52:48The project involves several partners!

00:52:50The losses are huge!

00:52:52I'm afraid it's too much, even for the Prescots!

00:52:54Oh no, stop your worrying, my darling!

00:52:57Your fiancé has powerful connections!

00:52:59And, oh, someone like old Mr. Sinclair came just to visit him!

00:53:02He's going to help our family get through this, okay?

00:53:06Come on now, don't overthink things, alright?

00:53:09Just focus on being the most beautiful bride!

00:53:12Dress and accessorize well, that's the key, dear!

00:53:14Hold on tight to that Jayden-pressed cot of yours, and then there's nothing to worry about, right?

00:53:23Yes?

00:53:24Mrs. and Ms. Carter, the costume wedding candies arrived!

00:53:27The candies are here, dear!

00:53:30Mom, you know, I had these specially ordered from Bell Ridge.

00:53:33They're made with the finest cocoa.

00:53:35Try one!

00:53:36Well, of course, I'm gonna try one!

00:53:38Hmm?

00:53:43Hmm?

00:53:48What is this awful thing?

00:53:51What is this awful thing?

00:53:52Mom!

00:53:53What's wrong?

00:53:53Are you alright?

00:53:54This candy is disgusting!

00:53:55It tastes like mold!

00:53:57Is it expired or what?

00:53:59What's going on?

00:54:00How could the candies be expired?

00:54:01Miss Carter, I don't know either.

00:54:03They just arrived.

00:54:04They couldn't have expired.

00:54:06You idiot!

00:54:06Somebody must have tampered with it, and that's why this just happened!

00:54:10Mom, please calm down.

00:54:12Go bring us another batch!

00:54:14You listen to me!

00:54:15If the same thing happens at the wedding, I'll make sure you pay for it!

00:54:21Madam, Mrs. Carter, the custom veil has arrived.

00:54:24The one hand made by the Montelie designer.

00:54:26Oh, that's wonderful!

00:54:28It finally arrived!

00:54:29We had to use many connections to secure this veil for your wedding!

00:54:32Claire, go ahead and open it!

00:54:34Try it on now!

00:54:35Go!

00:54:40Mom, why is there blood on the veil?

00:54:45There's blood all over the veil!

00:54:48Why the hell is there blood on that veil?

00:54:50Madam, I don't know either.

00:54:52I never even opened it.

00:54:53It was delivered like that.

00:54:55This is bad luck.

00:54:57Really bad.

00:54:57Hurry and burn it now.

00:54:59Then order a new one!

00:55:11It was fine when you checked it upon delivery.

00:55:14So what happened?

00:55:15Blood on a wedding veil is a bad omen.

00:55:17What if something happens at the wedding?

00:55:19Hey!

00:55:19Keep it down!

00:55:20If Mrs. Carter hears, you and I are finished.

00:55:23Let's just go.

00:55:25Mom, there have been so many bad signs.

00:55:28Should I really proceed with my marriage with Jaden?

00:55:30Stop that!

00:55:31The master said you can only remove this bad luck completely by marrying him!

00:55:37Once you marry Jaden Prescott, your life will be good again, huh?

00:55:41Stop overthinking things, alright?

00:55:44Hey!

00:55:44You can't place that thing right there!

00:55:46Stop!

00:55:48Stop!

00:55:56It's Jaden!

00:55:59Jaden, how'd it go?

00:56:00Did your dad agree to help my family?

00:56:04Look, Claire.

00:56:05We've run into some trouble, too.

00:56:07We can't help your family now.

00:56:08What?

00:56:09What?

00:56:10You really can't do anything?

00:56:11But don't worry.

00:56:13Once I secure the port project, I'll help the corridors get back on its feet.

00:56:16Are you serious?

00:56:17Of course I'm serious.

00:56:19For this project, I know my dad will fully support me.

00:56:21And I'm completely confident.

00:56:22It'll be profitable.

00:56:24But then...

00:56:25No room for doubts.

00:56:27Just trust me.

00:56:28And right now, there's something more important to think of.

00:56:30What is it?

00:56:31You and I still need to pick out our engagement rings.

00:56:34After all, our wedding day can't have room for mistakes.

00:56:39Engagement rings?

00:56:46Kyle, what are you doing here?

00:56:48Didn't I tell you before you can't come into my room without asking for my permission?

00:56:52I knocked.

00:56:54You did not respond.

00:56:54In that case, can't you just leave?

00:56:56Why are you still here?

00:56:59Wait.

00:57:00What do you have in your hand?

00:57:04This is for you.

00:57:11This ring is...

00:57:12I don't understand human customs, but I heard engaged couples exchange rings.

00:57:22Didn't you know, Kyle?

00:57:23This diamond is less than one carat.

00:57:25It's just a small stone within my circle.

00:57:28I can't show this off because it's not worth much.

00:57:30Sorry.

00:57:31I didn't know about that.

00:57:32I just thought that it looked nice.

00:57:35Forget it.

00:57:36There's no point in explaining.

00:57:37After all, even a small diamond must have been hard for you to buy.

00:57:42I actually saved up for it.

00:57:44You mean you saved every cent of your allowance which I gave you?

00:57:47Just to buy me this engagement ring?

00:57:49Mm-hmm.

00:57:50If you don't like it, I can keep saving.

00:57:53Until I can afford a bigger one.

00:57:54One in a style that you prefer.

00:57:57Forget it.

00:57:58I don't wear rings anyway.

00:58:07Oh, Kyle.

00:58:09You were actually very kind towards me.

00:58:12If only you came from a rich family.

00:58:15Or if you were more accomplished.

00:58:19Perhaps we wouldn't have broken off our engagement.

00:58:31Hi, Kyle.

00:58:33It's me.

00:58:35Hi, Kyle.

00:58:37It's me.

00:58:38What do you want?

00:58:39What do you mean by that?

00:58:40Why are you so impatient with me?

00:58:43Claire, what is it that you want to say?

00:58:46You didn't take your engagement ring back.

00:58:49That was a gift for you.

00:58:50Do what you want with it.

00:58:52I'm getting married in a few days.

00:58:54I called to invite you to my wedding.

00:58:57Miss Carter.

00:58:58Inviting your ex-fiancée to your wedding hardly seems appropriate.

00:59:02Look, Kyle.

00:59:03Do you really have to speak in such a sarcastic way?

00:59:05I'm inviting you only because I wanted us to part in good terms.

00:59:09Must you be this way?

00:59:10Miss Carter.

00:59:11Thank you for your kindness.

00:59:12But I won't be attending your wedding.

00:59:14Take care now.

00:59:22Sorry.

00:59:23The number you dialed is temporarily unavailable.

00:59:25You need to leave a voice.

00:59:27Seriously?

00:59:27You actually blocked me, Kyle?

00:59:32Mr. Hubert.

00:59:34Why did you throw away your phone?

00:59:35I don't need it.

00:59:37Who can even live without a phone these days?

00:59:39I kept the phone.

00:59:40So she could contact me in case of any danger.

00:59:43But now, I don't need it.

00:59:48She?

00:59:49Is this woman your girlfriend?

00:59:52Is this woman your girlfriend?

00:59:55She's not important.

00:59:58Good to know.

00:59:59Mr. Hubert doesn't have a girlfriend.

01:00:02Miss Ashford, can I help you?

01:00:05Mr. Hubert, there's a Silver Lake Merchant Alliance.

01:00:08I'd like for you to accompany me.

01:00:10Yes, of course.

01:00:11With your family's current fortune,

01:00:13the project you secure tomorrow

01:00:15could bring your family to ruin.

01:00:17Huh?

01:00:18Really?

01:00:19Don't worry.

01:00:21If I go with you, it'll be resolved.

01:00:23That's good, then.

01:00:27Hmm?

01:00:30Miss Ashford, is there anything else?

01:00:34Well, Mr. Hubert,

01:00:36could you also accompany me shopping?

01:00:39Shopping?

01:00:41Yeah.

01:00:42The Alliance requires formal wear.

01:00:43I need to help you pick out a proper suit for tomorrow.

01:00:47Sure, thanks.

01:00:56Hi, sir.

01:00:57Please bring out every formal suit in the store

01:00:59that can fit Mr. Hubert.

01:01:00Yes, of course.

01:01:03Miss Ashford, there's no need for that.

01:01:05Mr. Hubert, you've helped my family a lot.

01:01:07It's only right that we take care of you.

01:01:10I'll pick out your suit.

01:01:13Hmm.

01:01:21Is that you, Kyle?

01:01:24Is that you, Kyle?

01:01:30Hi, Kyle.

01:01:31I didn't expect I'd run into you here.

01:01:33I didn't expect I'd run into you either.

01:01:35Why'd you block my number?

01:01:36Do you hate me that much?

01:01:38Don't overthink it.

01:01:39My ties with the Carters are done.

01:01:41There's no reason to stay in contact.

01:01:43Hmm.

01:01:44You only say that because you still resent me.

01:01:46I admit, looking back now, I wasn't very nice to you.

01:01:50You're very honest, and your cooking is far better than the others.

01:01:54However...

01:01:57Your kindness just wasn't enough.

01:01:59You couldn't help me restore my family.

01:02:02What I needed was someone who could elevate our status.

01:02:06I hope you understand, and you don't blame me.

01:02:10Congrats on finding someone who can elevate you.

01:02:13In that case, we have no reason to keep in touch.

01:02:17But Kyle...

01:02:17I'm about to get married.

01:02:20For the three years we shared together,

01:02:22couldn't you at least give me your blessing?

01:02:25For the sake of those three years, I'll give you some advice.

01:02:29Be careful on your wedding day.

01:02:31What do you mean by that?

01:02:32Are you trying to curse me?

01:02:35It's not a curse.

01:02:37It's advice.

01:02:38You're on your own now.

01:02:39You...

01:02:40Mr. Hubert, I pick out some suits.

01:02:42See which one you like best.

01:02:47Who are you?

01:02:49Kyle?

01:02:49Mr. Hubert?

01:02:50Who is she?

01:02:52She's my former employer.

01:02:54And I was her driver.

01:02:56Driver?

01:02:57Mr. Hubert, you worked as a driver?

01:03:00Hey, Kyle.

01:03:01What are you trying to say by talking like that?

01:03:03Why don't you admit our relationship?

01:03:05Wasn't that how you used to introduce me to others?

01:03:07Now it is as you wished.

01:03:10As I wished, huh?

01:03:12Or are you simply too afraid to tell this woman about us?

01:03:15Are you afraid that I'll ruin your plans?

01:03:18I understand now.

01:03:20Those three years we were together,

01:03:21no matter how I treated you,

01:03:23you wouldn't end the engagement.

01:03:24But then,

01:03:25you suddenly agreed to end everything.

01:03:27Was it because of this woman?

01:03:29What nonsense are you saying?

01:03:31Claire,

01:03:32you should know better than anyone

01:03:34why we ended the engagement.

01:03:36Ended the engagement?

01:03:38Is...

01:03:39Is she your ex-wife?

01:03:42I'm so sorry for this misunderstanding.

01:03:45It's nothing.

01:03:46It's just...

01:03:47I didn't expect you to be married.

01:03:49We were engaged.

01:03:50But that's been severed.

01:03:51We have...

01:03:53Miss Garter,

01:03:54I truly envy you.

01:03:55You were with Mr. Hubert for three years.

01:03:57It's a pity.

01:03:58You didn't appreciate what he had then.

01:04:00What?

01:04:01You...

01:04:04Huh?

01:04:07Claire?

01:04:11I'm sorry.

01:04:12I kept you waiting.

01:04:13Let's go pick out the rings.

01:04:14All right.

01:04:16Oh.

01:04:16What was that loser doing here?

01:04:18He latched onto another woman?

01:04:22He said that they were just friends.

01:04:25Come on, Claire.

01:04:26Only you would have believed that nonsense, he says.

01:04:28However, I have to admit,

01:04:30Kyle is a very clever man.

01:04:32He found himself a new rich woman.

01:04:34Just after breaking up with you,

01:04:35he bounced right back with someone else.

01:04:37He's someone who mooshes off others.

01:04:40Kyle?

01:04:41Have you really fallen for someone else?

01:04:45Mr. Prescott, Miss Garter,

01:04:47this diamond ring is our store's prize piece,

01:04:49the Starlight Kiss.

01:04:50I think it suits your elegance perfectly.

01:04:56How is it?

01:04:57Do you like it?

01:04:59I like it a lot.

01:05:01It's just...

01:05:02It's a bit too large.

01:05:04Miss Garter,

01:05:05we sponsored this ring for you

01:05:06and Mr. Prescott for your grand wedding.

01:05:09The event will surely

01:05:10capture the attention of all the city's media.

01:05:12This kind of publicity

01:05:14is far better than hiring a celebrity.

01:05:17You're saying this ring is just on loan?

01:05:19Look, Claire.

01:05:20Our wedding is under a spotlight.

01:05:22This could become very profitable.

01:05:24Are you actually using our wedding for marketing?

01:05:30Claire, come on.

01:05:31Don't say that.

01:05:32This is how we're going to show the world our happiness.

01:05:35This ring right here

01:05:37isn't just my promise to you,

01:05:38but also a symbol for tomorrow's alliance.

01:05:40I want everyone who looks down on the corridors to know

01:05:43that my family still values yours.

01:05:45But then...

01:05:48Claire,

01:05:49the alliance is tomorrow.

01:05:51Once I secure the port project,

01:05:52I can help your family and clear your debts.

01:05:56All right.

01:05:57I trust you.

01:06:06Mr. Prescott and Ms. Carter,

01:06:09a perfect match.

01:06:10It seems that the port project

01:06:11is certain to be yours.

01:06:13Oh, well, of course.

01:06:14With Mr. Prescott leading,

01:06:16what project cannot be won?

01:06:18Today, the two of us

01:06:19can only watch from the sidelines.

01:06:25What the hell is that loser doing here?

01:06:29Isn't that Cath,

01:06:30Mr. Ashford's granddaughter?

01:06:32The Ashford's are almost bankrupt.

01:06:33So what are they doing here?

01:06:35It seems the alliance standards

01:06:36are really hitting an all-time low.

01:06:39Even freeloading losers

01:06:40can now attend just like that.

01:06:43Security!

01:06:44Why are you letting just anyone walk in

01:06:46without checking?

01:06:47Any random person can just walk in now?

01:06:49What the hell?

01:06:50Mr. Hubert's my family's investment advisor.

01:06:53Try to show some respect.

01:06:55Investment advisor?

01:06:56Hey, Kyle,

01:06:58did you fabricate your resume

01:06:59just to get a job?

01:07:00Investment advisor?

01:07:01Investment advisor?

01:07:03Ms. Ashford,

01:07:04no wonder your family's

01:07:05failing at everything.

01:07:06You actually hired this loser

01:07:08as your investment advisor?

01:07:09Ms. Ashford,

01:07:10there is no need to argue with him.

01:07:12Ms. Ashford,

01:07:13I must remind you,

01:07:15investing isn't a game,

01:07:16so choose your advisor carefully.

01:07:19I fully trust Mr. Hubert.

01:07:20But Ms. Carter,

01:07:21the one who needs to be careful here

01:07:24is you.

01:07:25Hey,

01:07:26we have business to attend to.

01:07:34We welcome all business elites

01:07:36to the Silver Lake Merchant Alliance.

01:07:38All right then,

01:07:39we shall officially begin

01:07:40the project bidding right now.

01:07:42Just raise your cards

01:07:42to submit your bids.

01:07:47Jaden,

01:07:48I didn't expect

01:07:49the port project's returns

01:07:50to be so high.

01:07:51Do your best.

01:07:52You have to win this.

01:07:54Don't you worry.

01:07:56This port project

01:07:57is mine's win.

01:07:58I've already asked my dad

01:08:00to prepare the funds.

01:08:01No one can compete with us.

01:08:04Mr. Hubert,

01:08:05there are too many

01:08:06projects listed.

01:08:07Which one do you think

01:08:08is worth investing in?

01:08:09Given my family's situation,

01:08:11we can't afford mistakes.

01:08:12Go choose the last one.

01:08:14After tomorrow,

01:08:17it'll surely rise.

01:08:23Hey, everyone.

01:08:25That's the mastermind

01:08:26the Ashford's hired

01:08:27for investment advice.

01:08:28Apparently,

01:08:29he thinks investing

01:08:29is just bargain hunting

01:08:30for the cheapest produce

01:08:32at the farmer's market.

01:08:34Miss Ashford,

01:08:35if you really will

01:08:36take his advice

01:08:37and buy that junk stock,

01:08:38you just might lose

01:08:40every penny you put in.

01:08:41I trust Mr. Hubert's eye

01:08:43for a good deal.

01:08:43Poor Miss Ashford.

01:08:45You don't really believe

01:08:46a word he says,

01:08:47do you?

01:08:47Everyone knows about

01:08:48StarTech in this industry.

01:08:50They're buried in debt

01:08:51and lagging in tech,

01:08:52yet he claims

01:08:52he'll search by tomorrow?

01:08:54That's extremely low level

01:08:56of incompetence

01:08:57for an advisor,

01:08:58I'd say.

01:09:00Exactly.

01:09:01Jayden has over a decade

01:09:03of business experience.

01:09:04He's seen everything already.

01:09:06His eye for investments

01:09:07is far sharper than most.

01:09:08Kyle, on the other hand,

01:09:10has never held down a job

01:09:11unless playing chef

01:09:12at home counts.

01:09:13Miss Ashford,

01:09:14if you do follow his advice,

01:09:16you're bound to lose everything.

01:09:18The Ashford's must be desperate

01:09:19if they're counting on a fraud

01:09:21to save them.

01:09:22Looks like they're really

01:09:23on their last legs.

01:09:24No kidding.

01:09:26Investing in that dying company

01:09:27is a recipe for disaster.

01:09:29It's a total money pit.

01:09:30The Ashford's are about

01:09:31to blow their last bit

01:09:32of capital.

01:09:35I'm standing by Mr. Huber,

01:09:37representing the Ashfords.

01:09:39We will now bid

01:09:39and subscribe to the full stake

01:09:41in Star Tech Project.

01:09:43Miss Ashford,

01:09:44I think you're gonna regret this.

01:09:46Don't worry.

01:09:47You'll be glad you did.

01:09:48I trust you.

01:09:49Claire,

01:09:51if they're eager

01:09:52to walk into disaster,

01:09:53then that's their choice.

01:09:55Focus on securing

01:09:55the port project,

01:09:57then we'll show them

01:09:58what a proper investment

01:09:59really looks like.

01:10:02On behalf of the Prescott's,

01:10:04I'm bidding $200 million

01:10:06for the port project.

01:10:10$300 million.

01:10:11$400 million.

01:10:13$500.

01:10:14$600.

01:10:17Oh, wow.

01:10:18They just won't give up anymore.

01:10:20The Prescott's will be taking

01:10:21the entire port project

01:10:22and pay a 20% premium as well.

01:10:27Did he say 20%?

01:10:28He's offering 20 extra?

01:10:30That's a lot, right?

01:10:31I'm out.

01:10:33Mr. Jaden Prescott

01:10:34now has a full stake bid

01:10:35and a 20% markup.

01:10:37Any advance on his offer?

01:10:41Deal closed.

01:10:49Now that they have landed

01:10:50the project,

01:10:52the Prescott's

01:10:53are set for success.

01:10:54That venture might seem lucrative,

01:10:55but it is riddled with risks.

01:10:57It ties up huge amounts of capital

01:10:59and takes forever to pay off.

01:11:01The Prescott's just

01:11:02set themselves up to fail

01:11:04by going all in.

01:11:09Impressive as always.

01:11:10Now that you've secured

01:11:11a port project,

01:11:12your family is bound

01:11:13for greatness.

01:11:14You've now set the stage

01:11:15for a new era of glory.

01:11:16Yes, indeed.

01:11:18Jaden,

01:11:18your caliber's unmatched

01:11:19for someone your age.

01:11:21Our family's future

01:11:22is in very good hands.

01:11:24Mr. and Mrs. Carter,

01:11:25you flatter me.

01:11:26Claire and I

01:11:26will be married soon,

01:11:28which means

01:11:28we'll all be family.

01:11:29I'll make sure

01:11:30that everyone gets

01:11:31a piece of the pie, huh?

01:11:33That means our family

01:11:34finally has hope.

01:11:36Come on,

01:11:36let's all toast to Jaden.

01:11:37Here.

01:11:39Cheers.

01:11:45Hello?

01:11:49What's that?

01:11:50See that again?

01:11:51The regulators

01:11:52are investigating

01:11:52the port project

01:11:53and our stock

01:11:54just plunged 5%?

01:11:57Jaden,

01:11:58what the heck's going on?

01:12:00I thought

01:12:00the project was solid.

01:12:02Why the regulatory scrutiny?

01:12:03The stock

01:12:04dipped by 5%?

01:12:05This is just day one!

01:12:07Mr. and Mrs. Carter,

01:12:09Claire,

01:12:10please don't panic.

01:12:11This is just temporary.

01:12:13Someone's trying

01:12:13to sabotage

01:12:14the family's momentum

01:12:15by releasing

01:12:16this kind of bad press.

01:12:17The regulatory review

01:12:18is minor.

01:12:19It'll be over quickly.

01:12:20The project's upside

01:12:21remains substantial.

01:12:23Oh, yes.

01:12:25That's right.

01:12:26You do make a good point.

01:12:27It's just

01:12:28a small hiccup.

01:12:29There's nothing

01:12:30to worry about.

01:12:31Come on now.

01:12:31Let's get back to the toast.

01:12:33Don't let this little thing

01:12:33ruin the party.

01:12:35Yes, cheers.

01:12:45Grandpa!

01:12:46Grandpa!

01:12:47Grandpa!

01:12:47Mr. Hubert,

01:12:48great news.

01:12:49Our StarTech investment

01:12:50just got its first

01:12:51major tailwind.

01:12:52What way?

01:12:52Let's hear it.

01:12:54StarTech's been included

01:12:55in a government-backed

01:12:56development program

01:12:57and its shares

01:12:57are now up to 3%.

01:12:59Mr. Hubert,

01:13:01I'm impressed

01:13:01you really called this one.

01:13:03I never expected

01:13:03such good news

01:13:04and it's only been a day.

01:13:06Mr. Hubert,

01:13:07it's incredible.

01:13:08A 3% gain in a single day.

01:13:10At this rate,

01:13:11I think that

01:13:11our family

01:13:12will recover in no time.

01:13:14Don't settle yet.

01:13:15There will be more to come.

01:13:16Soon enough,

01:13:17StarTech will roll out

01:13:18a major tech breakthrough.

01:13:20And that

01:13:21is when the real rally

01:13:22begins for us.

01:13:23Also,

01:13:24I just heard

01:13:24the Port Project

01:13:25is under investigation

01:13:26and their stock

01:13:27already dropped 5%.

01:13:29Serves them right.

01:13:30If only they had

01:13:31taken Mr. Hubert's advice

01:13:33instead of going all in,

01:13:34they wouldn't be

01:13:35in this mess.

01:13:36That project

01:13:37will take a major hit

01:13:38tomorrow

01:13:39and it's only going

01:13:40to get worse

01:13:42from there.

01:13:43Tomorrow?

01:13:44Isn't that

01:13:45also Jaden and Claire's

01:13:46wedding day

01:13:47if the stack tanks

01:13:48on the same day?

01:13:49Do you think

01:13:50the ceremony

01:13:51will even take place?

01:13:54Thank you,

01:13:55thank you.

01:13:56Congratulations.

01:13:57So happy for you guys.

01:14:00Honey,

01:14:01what a turnout.

01:14:02Look,

01:14:03these are all

01:14:04the biggest names

01:14:04in all of Silver Lake.

01:14:06Now that the Prescott's

01:14:07have our back,

01:14:08I'd like to see anyone

01:14:08try to talk smack

01:14:09about us.

01:14:11Hey,

01:14:12I heard

01:14:12through the grapevine

01:14:13that Mr. Sinclair

01:14:15is officiating

01:14:16the ceremony.

01:14:17Jaden must have

01:14:17serious influence.

01:14:19Mr. Sinclair

01:14:20is a powerhouse

01:14:21in Silver Lake.

01:14:22Most people

01:14:22never get the chance

01:14:23to see him.

01:14:24I'm quite shocked.

01:14:25Jaden got him

01:14:26to come.

01:14:27Yeah,

01:14:27I know,

01:14:27right?

01:14:28With his background,

01:14:29Mr. Sinclair's

01:14:29usually impossible

01:14:31to get for a private

01:14:32invite.

01:14:32To think Jaden

01:14:33could actually

01:14:34get someone

01:14:35like him

01:14:35to show up.

01:14:36I guess this

01:14:37goes to show

01:14:37his family's

01:14:38untouchable now.

01:14:40It's all thanks

01:14:41to Jaden's

01:14:42connections.

01:14:43Mr. Sinclair

01:14:44wouldn't have

01:14:44agreed to

01:14:45officiate otherwise.

01:14:47He's coming

01:14:47to officiate for me?

01:14:49Is that for real?

01:14:50Of course it's real.

01:14:51Mr. Sinclair

01:14:52is coming strictly

01:14:53on your account,

01:14:54you know.

01:14:54Old man's

01:14:55coming on my account?

01:14:56Mr. Sinclair

01:14:57is here.

01:15:05Welcome.

01:15:06Welcome,

01:15:06Mr. Sinclair.

01:15:07Congratulations,

01:15:07Mr. and Ms. Carter.

01:15:09You know,

01:15:10having someone

01:15:11like you to officiate

01:15:12is a tremendous

01:15:13turn.

01:15:13To even be

01:15:13invited here.

01:15:18I've brought

01:15:18with me

01:15:19a small gift

01:15:19to give

01:15:20to the lovely

01:15:20couple.

01:15:21Please accept

01:15:22it.

01:15:22With my best

01:15:23wishes,

01:15:24may they have

01:15:24a lifetime

01:15:24of happiness.

01:15:26That's an exquisite

01:15:27piece of premium

01:15:27jade.

01:15:28Mr. Sinclair

01:15:29really went

01:15:30all out

01:15:30just for

01:15:31the Prescott's.

01:15:32What a statement

01:15:33that makes.

01:15:33The Prescott's

01:15:34and Carter's

01:15:35are surely

01:15:35headed for

01:15:36the big leagues

01:15:37now.

01:15:37With a blessing

01:15:38like that,

01:15:39they're standing

01:15:39in the city

01:15:40as rock solid

01:15:41without a doubt.

01:15:44Oh,

01:15:45Claire,

01:15:46Jaden,

01:15:47come over

01:15:47and pay your respects.

01:15:48Such incredible

01:15:48generosity

01:15:49from someone

01:15:50of his stature

01:15:50deserves a proper

01:15:51thing.

01:15:52Thank you

01:15:52for doing me

01:15:53the honor

01:15:53of officiating

01:15:54and for such

01:15:55a precious

01:15:56wedding gift.

01:16:06right.

01:16:07Isn't Mr.

01:16:08Sinclair here

01:16:08for Jaden?

01:16:09How come

01:16:09he doesn't

01:16:10seem to know

01:16:10him?

01:16:11Did we get

01:16:11it wrong

01:16:12somehow?

01:16:12Maybe we did.

01:16:14All he said

01:16:14was he came

01:16:15for our

01:16:15son-in-law.

01:16:16Mr. Sinclair,

01:16:17my name's Jaden.

01:16:18I'm a Silver Lake

01:16:19Prescott,

01:16:20son of the

01:16:20richest man.

01:16:21I just secured

01:16:21the port project.

01:16:23Maybe you've

01:16:23heard of it?

01:16:27Mr.

01:16:28and Mrs.

01:16:28Carter,

01:16:29I hope you

01:16:30wouldn't mind

01:16:30if I ask.

01:16:31Isn't your

01:16:32son-in-law

01:16:33really Mr.

01:16:34Hubert?

01:16:35Oh,

01:16:37Mr.

01:16:37Sinclair,

01:16:38are you

01:16:38referring to

01:16:38Kyle?

01:16:39Oh,

01:16:39well,

01:16:40he's not

01:16:40our son-in-law

01:16:41anymore.

01:16:42Three years

01:16:42ago,

01:16:43he got

01:16:43engaged

01:16:43to Claire.

01:16:44That's right.

01:16:45That was my

01:16:46dad's call.

01:16:47A muddle-headed

01:16:47decision before

01:16:48he died.

01:16:49Luckily,

01:16:49that engagement

01:16:50was dissolved.

01:16:51That's right.

01:16:52We already

01:16:53kicked him

01:16:53out of our

01:16:53home.

01:16:54That loser

01:16:55freeloaded,

01:16:56and he got

01:16:56to do it

01:16:56for three

01:16:57whole years.

01:16:58He's

01:16:58completely

01:16:59useless.

01:17:00You broke

01:17:00off the

01:17:01engagement

01:17:01with Mr.

01:17:02Hubert?

01:17:02Why,

01:17:03yes,

01:17:03of course.

01:17:03What's the

01:17:04point of keeping

01:17:04that loser

01:17:05around right

01:17:06now?

01:17:06Claire has

01:17:07Mr.

01:17:07Prescott.

01:17:08It's best

01:17:08for the

01:17:08Carters and

01:17:09Prescott to

01:17:10join forces.

01:17:11Mr.

01:17:11Sinclair,

01:17:12why are you

01:17:12asking about

01:17:13that loser?

01:17:15Why did you

01:17:16hit him?

01:17:16Who do you think

01:17:17you are?

01:17:18To call Mr.

01:17:19Hubert a loser?

01:17:22Why did you

01:17:22hit him?

01:17:23Mr.

01:17:23Sinclair,

01:17:24what is your

01:17:24relationship

01:17:25with that big

01:17:26loser?

01:17:26Why would you

01:17:27stand up for

01:17:27him?

01:17:28Isn't he just

01:17:29some poor guy?

01:17:30What's so special

01:17:30about him,

01:17:31huh?

01:17:32Mr.

01:17:32Hubert's my

01:17:33benefactor.

01:17:34I happen to

01:17:35revere him

01:17:36like a god.

01:17:37You people

01:17:38didn't recognize

01:17:39his eminence.

01:17:40You didn't

01:17:40respect him

01:17:41at all.

01:17:41You fools!

01:17:47What's going

01:17:48on?

01:17:48Could it be

01:17:49that he didn't

01:17:50come here for

01:17:50Jaden?

01:17:51The two families

01:17:52offended Mr.

01:17:52Sinclair's

01:17:53benefactor.

01:17:53They must have

01:17:54a death wish.

01:17:55What's going

01:17:56on?

01:17:56What is

01:17:56that loser's

01:17:57real identity?

01:17:58How's he

01:17:59Mr.

01:17:59Sinclair's

01:18:00benefactor?

01:18:00Do you

01:18:00think Mr.

01:18:01Sinclair gave

01:18:02us the

01:18:02South City

01:18:03project and

01:18:04later visited

01:18:04us?

01:18:05All because

01:18:06of Kyle

01:18:06Hubert?

01:18:07What on

01:18:08earth is

01:18:08going on?

01:18:09Mr.

01:18:10bad news.

01:18:25approval?

01:18:25How could

01:18:28Prescott.

01:18:28our financial

01:21:46according to the latest news this morning at the wedding of the Carters and Prescott's fire broke out injuring more

01:21:52than a dozen mr and Mrs. and Mrs. Prescott died in the fire

01:21:57Who would have thought that this grand wedding, which was the talk of the town, would end up turning into

01:22:03some kind of hell?

01:22:06Luckily, we listened to your advice and didn't attend the wedding. Otherwise, the consequences would have been mad.

01:22:13How could this have happened to us?

01:22:16This is their fate. The Carters could have escaped this disaster, but they were too stubborn and they ruined their

01:22:22chance of survival.

01:22:23Hey, Doctor, come and help me first. Let me tell you, I'm the chairman of the Prescott Group. If something

01:22:29happens, can you bear the responsibility?

01:22:31The richest man's son? Stop flattering yourself. The Prescotts have gone bankrupt. Your dad's in custody for questioning. Now you're

01:22:38just a loser.

01:22:40Way back when, the Prescotts were still glorious. They were the richest in Silver Lake. Who would have thought, in

01:22:48the end, they'd suffer their inevitable downfall?

01:22:51Going bankrupt overnight? And making such a joke of themselves?

01:22:56Unfortunately, they cannot escape their doomed fate.

01:23:07How can you call yourself a driver? Are you trying to kill me?

01:23:10I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I didn't know why, but the brake suddenly failed.

01:23:13Mom! Dad!

01:23:22With one disaster after another, the Carters might really get wiped out.

01:23:27Why is this happening?

01:23:30The Carters' great misfortune is divine punishment.

01:23:35You must resolve this quickly. Otherwise, no matter what, you won't escape death.

01:23:41Hey, old man, you must tell us, how do we resolve this? How do we resolve this?

01:23:45The Ashfurts once encountered misfortune. They went bankrupt too.

01:23:50Later, they invited an expert to resolve things. After that, they just prospered more and more.

01:23:55Maybe after you seek advice from the Ashfurts.

01:23:59The Ashfurts?

01:24:05Mr. Hubert, the stock price of your new energy project keeps soaring.

01:24:09My family has not only repaid all our debts, but we've surpassed our peak prosperity.

01:24:14We've rebuilt our foundation, and it's all because of you.

01:24:18Mr. Hubert, I have no way to repay you, but I am willing to give half of our family's assets

01:24:23to you.

01:24:23This is the asset transfer. It has been notarized. Please, Mr. Hubert, accept it.

01:24:29That's fine, Mr. Ashfurts. Remember, I helped you in exchange for your own merit.

01:24:33Now that your family's misfortune has been resolved, it's time for me to go.

01:24:39Mr. Hubert, how can you go just like that? You know we regard you as our benefactor.

01:24:56Mr. Ashfurts, please, you have to help us. We'd like to meet the expert who resolved your misfortune.

01:25:01As long as he'll save us, we're willing to pay any price.

01:25:04The expert you speak of has already left.

01:25:08But where did he go? Please, you have to guide us, Mr. Ashfurts!

01:25:11The expert is also the pallbearer. He's no ordinary man.

01:25:17If you wish to meet him, you will have to use your own merit as your guide to face him.

01:25:24We are willing to use our merit to respectfully invite the pallbearers!

01:25:39To protect the Carters, we were engaged for three years.

01:25:43If you hadn't forced me out on old Mr. Carter's memorial and allowed me to accept the great ritual, your

01:25:47family's misfortune would have been resolved.

01:25:51Mr. Hubert, Mr. Hubert! I was so blind that I failed to recognize your worth! Please help me resolve my

01:25:56own misfortune and save my life!

01:25:58Kyle, please! I'm sorry! It was my fault! I shouldn't have treated you that way! Nor should I have doubted

01:26:04you! I know I was wrong! I beg you save what's left of my family! I'm willing to pay you

01:26:09any price!

01:26:10The protection's been withdrawn. Our ties are settled. I can no longer interfere with your fate.

01:26:15Kyle, I'm willing to trade all the merit of my life just to ask you to save us!

01:26:19Mr. Hubert, I'm also willing to trade my merit for a chance to escape death!

01:26:24You, Claire, you're ungrateful and have no sense of right and wrong.

01:26:28Jayden, you are arrogant and quite selfish. In this lifetime, you don't have a shred of merit to trade.

01:26:38We don't have a shred of merit to trade. No, but...

01:26:43Mr. Hubert, please give me one more shot. We're willing to start accumulating merit for the chance to live.

01:26:54Hi, this is Jayden. Donate all my family's assets to public schools and nursing homes. Give everything we have left

01:27:01to them. Do it right now!

01:27:03Kyle, I'll donate bone marrow and blood to hospitals. I can teach in rural areas. I'll accumulate merits for the

01:27:11rest of my life. Just to ensure the safety of my remaining family members.

01:27:17Please grant me this!

01:27:21Karma turns in cycles and there's still a chance. If you truly repent and spend the rest of your lives

01:27:27doing good, the Carter's misfortune can be delayed. But if you repeat your past mistakes, the curse will begin again

01:27:36at once.

01:27:36I promise you, I'll never be selfish or arrogant again. I'll personally supervise the school construction and take care of

01:27:43elderly people. I won't stray from this!

01:27:46Kyle... I'm sorry. I know I shouldn't have treated you badly. I've made a terrible mistake!

01:27:54If your family hadn't been so snobbish, you wouldn't have fallen to this state. All of this is the result

01:28:01of your own actions.

01:28:09Mr. Hubert, if you're going to leave, I... I would like to go with you.

01:28:15I go around the world for solving karmic ties. The future is vague. I can't take you with me.

01:28:21I don't mind. If I follow you, I won't hold you back. I studied medicine and business operations. I might

01:28:28be able to help you with some karmic matters.

01:28:32Besides, following you isn't to rely on you. I want to witness good being rewarded. I want to do something

01:28:38truly meaningful with you.

01:28:40Mr. Hubert, take me with you.

01:28:43The road ahead is long. I hope you won't regret it.
