00:00:10Oh, shit! I'm late for work. God, I wish I had superpowers right now so I could just fly to
00:00:15work.
00:00:21Mom? Mom, I really don't have time right now. I'm late for work. I gotta go.
00:00:25Hold on, just a minute.
00:00:27Mom, I really don't have time. If I get fired today...
00:00:30Oh, stop whining, little girl, and listen.
00:00:32All right, Mom, what is it?
00:00:33So, I found you the perfect guy. He works in a law firm, and since you now have a good
00:00:39job, I see you guys are compatible.
00:00:42Mom, it's definitely not a good time. I'm late. I really gotta go, okay? I love you.
00:00:47Come on, Em. I'm doing this for you. Hold on. Your husband-to-be actually wants to talk to you.
00:00:55Mom!
00:00:56Hi, Emily. Your mom said so much about you. I was wondering if we could...
00:01:00Dude, listen. I'm sure you're a great guy and all, but it's my first day. I'm late for work. I
00:01:05really gotta go. Please just bug off, man!
00:01:07So, I'm not like the other day. You haven't really had to fight. Oh shit, man, you just don't...
00:01:16Are you surprised me?
00:01:26My friend James Donnegan made me bring a hard time for me to...
00:01:41Hey Siri, play me some jazz music.
00:02:00Time is money, and I've got plenty of both.
00:02:14Coffee, the elixir of life.
00:02:24Hello?
00:02:24Good morning, sir.
00:02:26We need you at the office for an important meeting.
00:02:28What's wrong?
00:02:29We have a marketing problem at our Ohio branch, sir.
00:02:33Who's handling it?
00:02:34There was a client in a newly released product.
00:02:36The team is on it, sir.
00:02:38Okay.
00:02:39Well, I need this resolved quickly.
00:02:41I don't need issues like this on my radar.
00:02:42I'll be there in 20 minutes.
00:02:44Yes, sir.
00:02:45It'll be taken care of immediately.
00:02:59Time waits for no one, but Richard Goodman always arrives on time.
00:03:16You're Emily Nelson, right?
00:03:17Yeah, that's me.
00:03:18And you are?
00:03:19It's your first day at work.
00:03:20You come two hours late.
00:03:22What is wrong with you?
00:03:23I know.
00:03:24I'm sorry.
00:03:25I had car trouble this morning.
00:03:26Someone told me.
00:03:27Whatever.
00:03:28Come with me.
00:03:35This is your new office.
00:03:39Thanks.
00:03:41You know, the boss has been waiting for you in his office two hours already.
00:03:44He won't see you right now.
00:03:46Can you take me there?
00:03:47Fine.
00:03:48Let's go.
00:03:53This is it.
00:03:54Careful.
00:03:59We can't offer any more positions, especially now, Robert.
00:04:02I'm sorry.
00:04:03I know you're an old friend, but I'm not a charity center.
00:04:08Hi.
00:04:09I'm your new personal assistant.
00:04:12Phew.
00:04:13Just a moment, Robert.
00:04:15I'm getting another call.
00:04:16Call you back.
00:04:20I understand.
00:04:21We can't let this issue escalate any further.
00:04:23I need that report by the end of the day.
00:04:24Unless you want to look for a new job, I suggest you stop procrastinating.
00:04:31You.
00:04:33You're the one from the accident yesterday.
00:04:35Yes.
00:04:36It's me.
00:04:38I didn't realize that-
00:04:39That I'll be your new boss?
00:04:41Small world, huh?
00:04:43Yeah.
00:04:45I'm sorry I came in late.
00:04:46My alarm didn't go off, and I didn't have my car.
00:04:51Well, if you'd gotten up earlier, you would've gotten here earlier and avoided all these shenanigans.
00:04:57I'm sorry.
00:04:58If I have to do extra hours, I will.
00:05:00What do we do now?
00:05:01It's only been your first day, and I must say I'm not impressed.
00:05:04It's my first day here, sir.
00:05:05I did all the interviews, and it was the best choice.
00:05:08Please, just give me a chance.
00:05:10Don't stress it.
00:05:11I can see you worried.
00:05:12It's written all over your face.
00:05:14Just don't let it happen again, okay?
00:05:16Okay.
00:05:17I understand that you would've gotten to the office earlier if I hadn't hit you with my car.
00:05:20Okay, I promise, sir.
00:05:22I won't let it happen again.
00:05:24You're up to sir.
00:05:25Richard is fine.
00:05:27Alright, sir.
00:05:28So, what do I do now?
00:05:33Good.
00:05:33I can only imagine.
00:05:35It must have been embarrassing.
00:05:37Sarah, you have no idea.
00:05:38First, my alarm went off late, and then the accident, and the guy that I was yelling at for bashing
00:05:43my car turned out to be my boss!
00:05:46Oh my gosh.
00:05:47If I were in your shoes, I would've wanted to disappear too.
00:05:50Trust me, Sarah.
00:05:51If I could've run away in that moment, I would have.
00:05:56Well, now you have a front row seat to always keep an eye on your boss.
00:06:00He can't get away with anything either, right?
00:06:03God, just kill me now.
00:06:07It's like my life is a reality TV show, and I don't know.
00:06:11God, I just, I hope it doesn't get too dramatic.
00:06:14Girl, I got a serious question for you.
00:06:17What?
00:06:18Is he cute?
00:06:19Oh, God, Sarah, please!
00:06:21He doesn't even look like the kind of guy that has time for a woman.
00:06:24And, he's too serious.
00:06:28But, I don't know.
00:06:30Maybe every guy that's kind of hardcore has a soft spot, right?
00:06:34Well, that sounds nice.
00:06:36Looks like you got yourself a real soap opera now.
00:06:39Yeah, well, I hope it doesn't take any dramatic twists.
00:06:43Who knows?
00:06:44Maybe you'll discover that your boss is secretly a spy or a long lost prince.
00:06:49Are you serious?
00:06:52I highly doubt it.
00:06:54But, I don't know.
00:06:55Maybe a twist that would make my life easier wouldn't be too bad.
00:07:03It's Richard.
00:07:04I need to take this.
00:07:05I'll call you back, okay?
00:07:06Of course, Em.
00:07:07Don't let him intimidate you.
00:07:13Hello, sir.
00:07:14Emily, I need you to join an urgent call in two hours.
00:07:17We have an important meeting.
00:07:20And, how many times do I have to tell you?
00:07:22Just call me Richard.
00:07:23I don't think it's professional to call you by your first name, sir.
00:07:27Very well.
00:07:28Just come on over.
00:07:29Okay.
00:07:30I'll be right there.
00:07:31Good.
00:07:43Good.
00:07:48Emily, make sure you're taking down all the necessary details.
00:07:51I need a comprehensive report by the morning.
00:07:53Yes, sir.
00:07:54I'm documenting everything.
00:07:57And, uh, we need to implement the changes of the pricing strategy.
00:08:01And the product rollout needs to be recalibrated.
00:08:04Anyway, we need to switch our supplier from the EU to Asia so we can cut the cost down.
00:08:09Uh, got it.
00:08:10Pricing strategy and recalibration of the product rollout.
00:08:15Got it.
00:08:16Pricing strategy and recalibration of the product rollout.
00:08:19That's a great plan.
00:08:20This product is critical for our first quarter.
00:08:24Please make sure you have our staff implemented as soon as you can.
00:08:28Is there anything else, sir?
00:08:29No, Emily.
00:08:30You've been a great help.
00:08:31Get some rest.
00:08:32You've earned it.
00:08:34Thank you, sir.
00:08:35Don't forget.
00:08:36We meet early tomorrow morning in my office.
00:08:39Okay.
00:08:41Have a good night.
00:08:43Good night.
00:08:49I hope this job isn't the end of me.
00:09:26Good morning, Emily.
00:09:28Good morning, sir.
00:09:30Oh, I'm sorry.
00:09:31I didn't mean to start with you like that.
00:09:32I'm sorry.
00:09:33I'll clean this up.
00:09:41I put the report on your desk.
00:09:43You can check it out.
00:09:45Okay.
00:09:46So you've got everything recorded?
00:09:47Yes.
00:09:48You can check if there are any errors.
00:09:57What the hell was that?
00:09:58It felt different.
00:10:00No.
00:10:01Things like this cannot happen.
00:10:04Not with an employee.
00:10:05Our relationship is strictly professional.
00:10:08That's it.
00:10:12We have to remain professional.
00:10:16Focus on the work.
00:10:17That's what matters.
00:10:18This cannot happen.
00:10:20I won't let this happen.
00:10:27What was that?
00:10:29Why did it feel so complicated?
00:10:37God, this thing won't come off.
00:10:41Just like whatever that was.
00:10:47No, no, I need to keep it professional.
00:10:50There's no room for that kind of stuff.
00:10:52Work is work.
00:11:06David, tell me some good news.
00:11:07Yes, sir.
00:11:08The new strategy we implemented is showing promising results, sir.
00:11:12That's excellent to hear.
00:11:13Tell me more.
00:11:14Our recent campaign is agreeing with our target audience,
00:11:17and we're seeing a significant upset in engagement sales.
00:11:20It seems like we hit the mark, sir.
00:11:22Outstanding work.
00:11:23Thank you, David.
00:11:24We need to monitor the progress closely, though, okay?
00:11:27Will do, sir.
00:11:28Thank you for your guidance.
00:11:34Emily, please come to my office.
00:11:37On my way, sir.
00:11:44Emily, do you have your passport ready?
00:11:46My passport?
00:11:47Yeah, but I wasn't aware of any travel plans.
00:11:50I have an important business trip scheduled for tomorrow.
00:11:52I'll need you to accompany me.
00:11:54Yes, of course.
00:11:56I'll make the necessary arrangements.
00:12:11Oh my goodness.
00:12:12Why does he keep staring at me?
00:12:15That was a productive meeting, Emily.
00:12:17You handled logistics perfectly.
00:12:21Thank you, sir.
00:12:23It was a team effort.
00:12:25You're a valuable asset to this team.
00:12:28Your dedication doesn't go on purpose.
00:12:31I'm just here to make your job easier, sir.
00:12:35Well, this calls for a celebration, don't you think?
00:12:40Yeah.
00:12:41Okay.
00:12:42Head back to our rooms, freshen up,
00:12:43and then we can meet at the hotel restaurant.
00:12:46We'll mark this successful meeting properly.
00:12:48Okay.
00:12:49Sounds good.
00:13:00Let's reconvene at the hotel restaurant in Naur?
00:13:04Absolutely.
00:13:06I'll set everything up for our celebration.
00:13:18Cheers.
00:13:20Cheers.
00:13:34I'm interested to learn more about you, Emily.
00:13:37I know a lot about your professional life,
00:13:39but I don't know very much about your personal one.
00:13:41Tell me more.
00:13:46Well, I come from a pretty close-knit family.
00:13:50And I have a little sister.
00:13:52She's in college now.
00:13:55And, yeah, my family has always been really supportive
00:13:58with all of my ambitions.
00:14:01Wow.
00:14:02That's wonderful to hear, Emily.
00:14:03I can see where you get your determination from.
00:14:07Yeah.
00:14:09I mean, they mean the world to me, you know?
00:14:14Oh, my gosh.
00:14:15But lately, my mom has been driving me insane.
00:14:19She's been trying to find me a future husband.
00:14:21And I swear, every time I see her phone call, I just...
00:14:25I don't know.
00:14:26I feel this pressure and...
00:14:31I mean...
00:14:32I don't know what she thinks.
00:14:36How about you?
00:14:37So, what's your life beyond the boardroom?
00:14:45Yeah.
00:14:46Work's always been challenging,
00:14:48and I've missed a lot of important aspects of my life.
00:14:52So, I guess I'm just trying to find a balance right now.
00:14:55Oh.
00:14:56Yeah.
00:14:57I see how it can be challenging to maintain a work-life balance
00:15:01with your responsibilities.
00:15:04You're absolutely right, Emily.
00:15:06I'm starting to realise that there's a lot more to life than just work.
00:15:14Hey, what do you say we go to the hotel bar and get a drink?
00:15:19That sounds like a wonderful idea.
00:15:21Let's go.
00:15:22Okay.
00:15:27Here you go.
00:15:50You're a great assistant, Emily.
00:15:51You've been a real lifesaver tonight.
00:15:55I'm so part of the job, sir.
00:15:57Thank you, Emily.
00:15:59You're a real friend.
00:16:02Anytime, Mr. Richard.
00:16:04Just know I always have your back.
00:16:07You know, I just realised...
00:16:09I don't think I know your last name.
00:16:12It's Goodman.
00:16:14Richard Goodman.
00:16:15You should know by my financial reports.
00:16:19Goodman.
00:16:21So...
00:16:22That must mean you're a good man, right?
00:16:24Yeah.
00:16:27Why don't you find out?
00:16:40I still prefer to call you Mr. Richard.
00:16:45I'm so lucky to have you, Miss Emily.
00:16:48And I'm so lucky to work for you.
00:16:52You're an extraordinary person.
00:17:01Can I wait here for a while?
00:17:16What are you doing?
00:17:26What are you doing?
00:17:30What are you doing?
00:17:46Where am I?
00:17:51What happened last night?
00:17:55What happened last night?
00:18:12Emily, what are you doing in my room?
00:18:15You're asking me.
00:18:17I should be asking you.
00:18:19What exactly happened last night?
00:18:21I just...
00:18:22I left you in your room.
00:18:25And then...
00:18:27No.
00:18:28No, no, no, no, no, no.
00:18:29No, this can't be happening!
00:18:32Emily! Don't go!
00:18:40What did I get myself into?
00:18:48What happened last night?
00:18:53Did I really sleep with Richard?
00:19:08What did we do?
00:19:14Please, have a seat.
00:19:21We need to talk about what happened.
00:19:25Yes, we do.
00:19:30I need to understand how such an event happened last night.
00:19:36Richard, I wish I had a clear answer.
00:19:38We were both drunk and it's all a blur.
00:19:42I need to make sure that you're okay with everything that happened.
00:19:45What?
00:19:47You want me to be okay with all this?
00:19:50I had a one night stand with my boss and you expect me to be fine with it.
00:19:54Calm down. Calm down.
00:19:57I understand you feel that way.
00:19:59Calm down?
00:20:01How are you going to tell me to calm down?
00:20:02Do you have any idea how much stress this has caused me?
00:20:06It's affected me too, okay?
00:20:08But I just want you to know that even though something happened, I still...
00:20:13No, no.
00:20:15I need to go home and process all this.
00:20:17I really don't want this to affect our working relationship.
00:20:21I'm going to be honest and you feel that way.
00:20:22I know the challenges it presents, but I don't want it to affect your role here either.
00:20:29Richard, it's okay.
00:20:31We both made a mistake.
00:20:33It was a result of poor judgement, fueled by alcohol, but...
00:20:37I really don't want this to jeopardize our working relationship.
00:20:40I just need to go home and take some time to think about it.
00:20:44Okay.
00:20:59Emily, what happened? You can talk to me.
00:21:01I'm here for you.
00:21:02God, Sarah, I'm freaking out.
00:21:04I had too much to drink and...
00:21:07God, it's such a mess. I can't believe what I did.
00:21:10It's okay, Emily.
00:21:13Take a deep breath.
00:21:14We will get through this together.
00:21:18What happened?
00:21:21Alright.
00:21:24Sarah, I had a one night stand with my boss.
00:21:27I woke up in his bed this morning.
00:21:30God is such a mess.
00:21:32Listen, Emily. I can only imagine what happened last night.
00:21:36It doesn't define you.
00:21:40Emily, I'm here for you, but are you safe?
00:21:43Do you need any help?
00:21:44I'm safe. I'm just...
00:21:46I'm just a little shaken up.
00:21:48I don't know how to face him at work anymore.
00:21:51We're drunk. Are you sure you remember what happened?
00:21:55Yes, I went through it in my head over and over again.
00:21:58It happened, Sarah. Unfortunately.
00:22:01Oh God, I don't know what to do.
00:22:03No, no, Emily. It's a complicated situation.
00:22:07Don't worry. We'll figure out a way to move forward.
00:22:14Thank you, Sarah. I really needed to hear that.
00:22:27What have I done?
00:22:30It was a mistake. A lapse in judgement.
00:22:33Who hasn't had sex?
00:22:40How could it come to this? We're both professionals.
00:22:44What was I thinking?
00:22:48I can't let this ruin mine or Emily's career.
00:22:51We must find a way to move forward.
00:22:55I won't let this mistake ruin all that I've built.
00:22:58I must restore order.
00:23:02How can I just face everyone at work after what happened?
00:23:07But I can't keep avoiding it.
00:23:13Sarah was right. I'm not going to let it define me.
00:23:15No.
00:23:17I'm not going to let one mistake determine my future.
00:23:36Oh, thank goodness.
00:23:38Okay.
00:23:39Alright.
00:24:02There. All set.
00:24:04Okay.
00:24:08Mission accomplished.
00:24:10Now I can focus on the rest of my tasks today.
00:24:24Emily's been here.
00:24:30She's so dedicated to her work even after the incident.
00:24:38Thank you for this.
00:24:47Hello, David.
00:24:49Just a moment. I'll call you back.
00:24:55I was told you want to see me?
00:24:58Yes, Emily. Please have a seat.
00:25:12Please go, David.
00:25:21Please go, David.
00:25:23Really, we can't keep avoiding the elephant in the room.
00:25:26What happened between us, it's complicated.
00:25:30Yes, it is.
00:25:32I want you to know that I value your professionalism and dedicate it to your work.
00:25:38But, I understand that what happened between us has created an uncomfortable situation.
00:25:44I really value my job here, Mr. Richard.
00:25:47I mean, sir.
00:25:49And I'm not going to let anything jeopardize it.
00:25:52We need to find a way to move forward without letting this affect our work.
00:25:54I agree.
00:25:56I agree.
00:25:56We need to maintain professionalism and find a way to put this between us, behind us.
00:26:01I promise, sir, I won't let this affect our work.
00:26:04I'm not going to let personal matters interfere.
00:26:09Thank you, Emily.
00:26:10Your dedication towards your work is commendable.
00:26:13So is yours.
00:26:15Seriously, I really value my time here.
00:26:17The very fact that you believe in me, it just really makes me feel like this job is everything for
00:26:24me.
00:26:25We'll handle this, Emily.
00:26:26But in the meantime, let's focus on the tasks at hand.
00:26:29Okay.
00:26:31I have some work to get back to.
00:26:33If you don't mind, I'd like to get back to it.
00:26:51Hi, Mom.
00:26:53Emily!
00:26:55How have you been, dear?
00:26:56I'm okay.
00:26:57Just, I have a lot going on at work.
00:27:01You sound a bit off.
00:27:03Is everything okay?
00:27:05Yeah, everything's fine.
00:27:07It's just, I might have done something that put my work and reputation at risk.
00:27:13But I have it under your control.
00:27:15And I wouldn't let you down, Mom.
00:27:17You could never let me down, Emily.
00:27:20I know you'll do what's right.
00:27:22By the way, Emily, I have a date set up with you with that.
00:27:27I'm a banker.
00:27:28Mom, you're still setting me people up.
00:27:30Come on, Emma.
00:27:31Give it a chance, baby.
00:27:33You need to get back out there.
00:27:35It's been ages since you've had any fun.
00:27:37That's true, but...
00:27:39Mom, I have so much going on right now, I can't even fathom going on a date right now.
00:27:43Emily, you can't let work control your life.
00:27:46Besides, this guy is different.
00:27:48He's a successful banker.
00:27:50Stable and charming at the same time.
00:27:53He has a lot of hobbies similar to yours.
00:27:56I really think you'll like him.
00:27:59I don't know.
00:28:00Come on.
00:28:01It's just one date.
00:28:03What's the harm in having a little fun once in a while?
00:28:06Alright, fine.
00:28:08But just this one date.
00:28:09I want to feel like I'm doing this just for you.
00:28:12That's my girl.
00:28:14I'll send him your number right away.
00:28:16Alright, I gotta go, Mom.
00:28:18And remember, Emily.
00:28:21The most important thing is to wear a beautiful smile.
00:28:28Okay, Mom.
00:28:29Bye. I love you.
00:28:34Sarah, I can't believe I let my mom talk me into this date.
00:28:37He was actually so nice.
00:28:39See?
00:28:40I told you, Em.
00:28:41Sometimes you need to step out of your comfort zone.
00:28:44I know.
00:28:45I know.
00:28:46And it was so refreshing to talk to someone about something that's not work for once.
00:28:51You know?
00:28:52I'm glad to hear, sweetheart.
00:28:54Do I get to meet this charming banker soon?
00:28:58Oh my gosh.
00:28:59Come on, Sarah.
00:28:59Let's not get ahead of ourselves.
00:29:01It was just one date.
00:29:03Well, remember that life is more than just work and solving mysteries.
00:29:07It's about enjoying the journey, too.
00:29:09I know. You're right.
00:29:11I'm just happy I let my mom talk me into this date.
00:29:15Now, tell me more about this charming banker.
00:29:19What's his name?
00:29:20Okay.
00:29:22Alright, so his name is James.
00:29:24And he's genuinely such a good guy.
00:29:26And he's like full of unexpected surprises.
00:29:30I don't know.
00:29:31I like him.
00:29:32Let's see where things go.
00:29:34Well, remember to just enjoy the moment.
00:29:37And if I were you,
00:29:38I wouldn't go for drinks with him.
00:29:41You know where that led last time.
00:29:44Oh my gosh.
00:29:45I know.
00:29:46Sarah, I get it.
00:29:48But you're right.
00:29:51I needed to hear that.
00:29:56Emily, could you please come to my office for a moment, please?
00:30:09You wanted to see me, sir?
00:30:11Yes. Please, have a seat.
00:30:14Don't worry.
00:30:15I'm not going to be talking about that.
00:30:18I have an important words task to hand over to you.
00:30:20Oh, right.
00:30:22That thing.
00:30:23I almost forgot about it.
00:30:24I wanted to discuss our upcoming projects.
00:30:27I have a very important client meeting next week.
00:30:29And I believe you'll be perfect to take the lead.
00:30:31Your attention to detail and your dedication to your work has not gone unnoticed.
00:30:36Thank you, sir.
00:30:37Thank you so much for the opportunity.
00:30:39I'll be sure to give it my best.
00:30:41I have no doubt about that.
00:30:43You've been doing great lately.
00:30:44And I believe this presentation will make you shine even more.
00:30:49I won't disappoint you, sir.
00:30:59Alright, Emily.
00:31:00Stay calm and confident.
00:31:01You can do this.
00:31:05Good morning, everyone.
00:31:06Thank you for joining today's call.
00:31:08I'll be leading today's discussion.
00:31:10Good morning, Emily.
00:31:12Alright, so let's dive into this presentation.
00:31:14Today we're going to be discussing exciting developments and new opportunities in the blockchain space.
00:31:19So I'll be discussing some key points and then we can address any questions you guys might have.
00:31:24Alright, well, we lost 50% of our investment last cycle, so why would we keep investing in this space?
00:31:32Yeah, I mean, even though it's apparent that many companies have been affected by the bear market, including ours, it's
00:31:38still the best time to invest.
00:31:40Actually, more than 80% of the top 100 companies have invested in this space, whether it's through research, pilot
00:31:46programs, or already implemented projects.
00:31:49And digital currency wallet holders have increased by 1,000% in the last year alone.
00:31:54It's actually more risky not to invest.
00:31:58Alright, everyone, thank you so much for your time and attention today.
00:32:01I'm really looking forward to continuing this discussion.
00:32:03If you have any questions, please just reach out to me.
00:32:09Sir, I wanted to thank you for trusting me with the presentation.
00:32:12I really appreciate the chance to prove myself.
00:32:14You did a great job, Emily.
00:32:16I'm so glad I chose you for this.
00:32:18It was the perfect job for you.
00:32:19Thank you, sir.
00:32:21We might have to start reconsidering your job and ready you up for a promotion if you keep up the
00:32:24great work.
00:32:35Emily!
00:32:55What happened?
00:32:57You collapsed.
00:32:59Are you okay?
00:33:01Yeah.
00:33:02I'm fine.
00:33:04It must have been the excitement or something.
00:33:07Maybe you should get yourself checked just to make sure.
00:33:10Okay.
00:33:12I will.
00:33:13Thank you, sir.
00:33:16Take care of yourself, Emily.
00:33:19Okay.
00:33:19Please don't have any questions.
00:33:20Don't hesitate to reach out, okay?
00:33:22Okay.
00:33:23I will.
00:33:24I mean, I'm sure it'll be fine, but yeah, I'll let you know.
00:33:50Sarah, I can't talk right now.
00:33:52I'm still at work.
00:33:54I know.
00:33:55It's just, I've been under a lot of pressure lately.
00:33:58Richard told me to go get checked out.
00:34:00Well, you should listen to him.
00:34:02Better safe than sorry.
00:34:03I'll visit you when you finish work.
00:34:05Yeah, I just have a lot on my plate and it's taking its toll on me.
00:34:10Maybe it's time to look back and we evaluate your priorities.
00:34:23Oh my god, it's him.
00:34:27Hello?
00:34:28Good morning, Emily.
00:34:29I hope you're feeling better.
00:34:31Good morning, sir.
00:34:33I'm feeling a lot better.
00:34:35Thanks for asking.
00:34:36You know, I've been thinking.
00:34:37I think you should take a few days off or let's say a week.
00:34:42Honestly, take all the time you need and call me when you're feeling better.
00:34:45I trust you.
00:34:46Thank you, sir.
00:34:48Thanks for understanding.
00:34:50I'll keep you updated with my progress.
00:34:52Okay.
00:35:05Now that I have a whole day to myself, what should I do?
00:35:09I could just rest and watch some Netflix.
00:35:24That was weird.
00:35:26I must be more tired than I thought.
00:35:33I can't keep pushing myself like this.
00:35:52No.
00:35:53No.
00:35:54No.
00:35:54No.
00:35:55This can't be.
00:35:59No.
00:36:01No.
00:36:02No.
00:36:07What are you doing now?
00:36:12No.
00:36:23Hello?
00:36:25Sarah.
00:36:26It's me, Emily.
00:36:28Emily, what's going on? You're so upset.
00:36:33Sarah, I took a pregnancy test and it's positive.
00:36:38Oh, Emily, I don't even know what to say.
00:36:44Me neither. I mean, I had a one-night stand with Richard and now I'm pregnant?
00:36:48Emily, I'm here for you. We'll figure this out together.
00:36:54Sarah, I'm scared.
00:36:56I know, but you're not alone in this. Take a deep breath.
00:37:02Let's think about what you want to do next.
00:37:06Yeah.
00:37:09Thanks, Emily.
00:37:12Come in!
00:37:24Richard, I'm sorry to disturb you. I know you have a busy schedule.
00:37:28It's okay, Emily. What's wrong?
00:37:35I don't know how to tell you this, but there's something really important I need to talk to you about.
00:37:41Take your time. You can talk to me about anything.
00:37:48Richard, I took a pregnancy test and it's positive. I'm pregnant.
00:37:55I appreciate you telling me this, Emily, but what does this have to do with me?
00:38:00Well, I thought you should know since you're the father.
00:38:04We had a one-night stand. Are you sure about this?
00:38:06I'm certain. There's no one else. And the timing, it aligns.
00:38:14This is a lot to take in.
00:38:17I understand, but I didn't want to hide this from you.
00:38:22We need to figure out the best way to get out of this.
00:38:28I don't know what's the best way, but I know I can't do this alone.
00:38:35Thank you for telling me this, Emily.
00:38:38It's just a lot to process. This is going to take me some time.
00:38:43How about we meet tomorrow and discuss this matter further?
00:38:48I understand, but I just wanted to be honest with you.
00:38:56Great. Well, I'll see you tomorrow.
00:39:12This can't be happening.
00:39:15Emily, it's a mistake. We had a one-night stand. We were both...
00:39:20We weren't in our right state of mind.
00:39:22I can't even remember it happening.
00:39:26It's a mistake. A misunderstanding.
00:39:28This child can't be mine.
00:39:33Emily, it's the situation. It's not what we expected.
00:39:37It complicates everything. We have to consider our options.
00:39:41I know, Richard. I've thought about it too.
00:39:45This wasn't part of any plan.
00:39:48It's just been so overwhelming.
00:39:51Well, given our situation, maybe we need to investigate other options like, well...
00:40:01Termination?
00:40:06You mean an abortion?
00:40:13Excuse me.
00:40:22I need to consider every option.
00:40:26Hello?
00:40:26Sarah, we need to talk. I need your advice.
00:40:29Of course, Emily. I'm here for you.
00:40:33He wants me to get an abortion.
00:40:35I know he wouldn't like it, but...
00:40:37I don't know. At least he wasn't mad.
00:40:40I'm not sure. I just...
00:40:43Emily, whatever you decide, we will support you.
00:40:45This is your life. This is your choice.
00:40:49I know. I'm just... scared.
00:40:51I'm scared for my reputation, what it means for my career, the judgment.
00:40:56You are strong, Emily. You can overcome any obstacle.
00:41:00I will stand by your side and offer any support you may need.
00:41:10Richard, we have to talk about this pregnancy.
00:41:13I've thought about it, Emily. I don't believe on the father.
00:41:16It was a one night stand. We were both intoxicated.
00:41:19This matter doesn't concern me.
00:41:21Richard, we have to consider all options.
00:41:24I couldn't plan for this either.
00:41:26I'm sorry, Emily. I cannot be a part of this.
00:41:28I can't have this ruin my life or my career.
00:41:32Richard, I need your support.
00:41:34We can do this together. We can figure it out.
00:41:36There's nothing to figure out.
00:41:39You made your decision that night, and you need to live with the consequences.
00:41:43What about you? You made choices, and I too!
00:41:47Why do I have to live with the consequences?
00:41:50What if I'm the only one being held responsible?
00:41:53You're the CEO of a big company. You must know responsibility.
00:41:58I think it's best if you leave the company, Emily.
00:42:02What? You're firing me.
00:42:05Yes. I can't have this affecting my business.
00:42:14I can't believe you.
00:42:16How could you be so heartless?
00:42:19You have till the end of the day to pack your things.
00:42:22I regret ever meeting you.
00:42:25Get out!
00:42:44What do I do now?
00:42:53Hello?
00:42:54Hey, Sarah.
00:42:56Emily, what's going on?
00:42:58You sound upset.
00:43:01I don't know what to do.
00:43:04Richard fired me.
00:43:05He said he doesn't want anything to do with me or the baby.
00:43:09I can't believe he fired you.
00:43:11What a heartless asshole.
00:43:12Don't worry.
00:43:14I will stand with you through it all.
00:43:17I'm not gonna give up.
00:43:19I'm gonna find a way to support myself and this baby.
00:43:23That's the spirit, Em.
00:43:24We will explore your options.
00:43:26You can start fresh.
00:43:28It's a new beginning.
00:43:30Thank you, Sarah.
00:43:32I don't know what I would do without you.
00:43:51I can do this.
00:43:53I'll be a strong, independent mom.
00:44:07Don't worry, little one.
00:44:09I'll be sure you get the best of everything.
00:44:12No one's going to look down on us.
00:44:14I'll be sure of that.
00:44:23What a day.
00:44:29Is my degree and all my experience not enough to prove my competence?
00:44:42No.
00:44:44No!
00:44:50I won't stop.
00:44:52I won't stop until I secure a future for my baby.
00:45:02I won't stop.
00:45:33I won't stop.
00:45:33I won't stop.
00:45:35I won't stop.
00:45:38I won't stop.
00:45:40I won't stop.
00:46:01I won't stop.
00:46:07I won't stop.
00:46:30I won't stop.
00:46:56I won't stop.
00:46:58I won't stop.
00:47:00What about you?
00:47:01Of course, Emily.
00:47:02You're like a sister to me.
00:47:04We're going to throw the best baby shower ever.
00:47:09So, have you thought of any names yet?
00:47:11Got any favorites?
00:47:13I'm considering a few, but nothing's final.
00:47:15No.
00:47:16I want it to be perfect.
00:47:18You'll find the perfect name, I'm sure.
00:47:20It's a big decision after all.
00:47:23Thank you, Sarah.
00:47:24I'm so grateful for you.
00:47:33Oh, my God.
00:47:38Sarah.
00:47:40I think my water just broke.
00:47:48Welcome home, Lily.
00:47:58You're going to have such a wonderful life, my little one.
00:48:05You've already brought so much joy into my life, Lily.
00:48:08I promise, no matter what happens in the future, I'll always be there to protect you.
00:48:12Forever.
00:48:23We can't wait to see you too, Lily.
00:48:25Thanks for always supporting us.
00:48:30Hello?
00:48:32Emily, did you adjust the room to a suitable temperature for the baby, like I told you?
00:48:37Yes, Mom, I did.
00:48:39Don't forget to take your child to the hospital for a checkup tomorrow, and then again next week.
00:48:45Yes, Mom, I remember everything you told me.
00:48:47I think you'll be a great mom, just like you.
00:48:49That's a good child.
00:48:50I know you find me talkative, but I've experienced how much trouble it is to take care of children when
00:48:57you were little.
00:48:58I get it, Mom.
00:48:59I get it.
00:49:00I really do.
00:49:02Don't worry.
00:49:08You are my sunshine, my only sunshine.
00:49:20You make me happy when skies would rain.
00:49:27I love you more than words can stay, Lily.
00:49:33You've changed my world.
00:49:36I'm so grateful for you.
00:49:45Mom, we're behind all our rents again.
00:49:48What should we do?
00:49:51It's okay, Lily.
00:49:52We've been through challenges before, and we'll get through this one too.
00:49:57I'll talk to the landlord and explain our situation.
00:50:01We'll find a perfect solution.
00:50:02We always do.
00:50:04So, I'll just...
00:50:08Mom, everything here is broken.
00:50:10Why is everything falling apart all the time?
00:50:14It's not so simple, Lily.
00:50:16I'm trying my best, I promise.
00:50:18I know you're well educated.
00:50:20Why aren't we doing better?
00:50:23It's complicated.
00:50:24I lost my job years ago, and I promise I've been trying my best since.
00:50:30Mom, just...
00:50:37Mom, I got you the medicine you need.
00:50:41Thank you, Lily.
00:50:42You're such a big help.
00:50:44Mom, things will get better, I promise.
00:50:48I know you're well, sweetheart.
00:50:50I'm so lucky to have you.
00:50:53I wish things could be different.
00:51:00Mom!
00:51:01There's got to be a way to make you feel better.
00:51:04I'm trying, Lily.
00:51:06But sometimes, life has other plans.
00:51:23Mom.
00:51:23Mom, the breathing's got left.
00:51:25Mom!
00:51:27Mom!
00:51:28Mom, answer me!
00:51:29Mom!
00:51:32Mom!
00:51:37Mom, please wake up!
00:51:39Doctor!
00:51:39Doctor, there has to be something we can do, please!
00:51:41My mom's not responding!
00:51:43Mom!
00:51:43Mom!
00:51:44I understand.
00:51:46Without plans for proper treatment, there's nothing we can do.
00:51:51What?
00:51:54Mom, please!
00:51:56Mom!
00:51:58Mom, please!
00:52:00Mom!
00:52:02Mom!
00:52:03I love you, Mom.
00:52:05Mom!
00:52:05Mom!
00:52:05Please don't go!
00:52:06Please don't leave me!
00:52:09Please!
00:52:12Mom!
00:52:16Mom!
00:52:24Mom!
00:52:30Mom!
00:52:33Mom!
00:52:35I love you so much!
00:52:50Mom!
00:52:52I'll make you proud!
00:52:54I promise!
00:52:57Mom!
00:53:03Mom!
00:53:17My dearest Lily, if you're reading this letter, it means I'm no longer by your side.
00:53:23I want you to know that you're the most precious thing in my life.
00:53:27I love you more than words can express.
00:53:31Mom!
00:53:32I'm so sorry for all the harsh words I said.
00:53:37I'm sorry I didn't tell you more about your father, but I want you to know the truth now.
00:53:42His name is Richard, and he wasn't a bad person.
00:53:46He just made a mistake in the past, just like I did.
00:53:50We were both young and foolish, and the circumstances kept us apart.
00:53:56Lily, I never wanted you to think poorly of him.
00:53:59He was just very focused on his career, and he couldn't stand for anything that might put his company in
00:54:04jeopardy.
00:54:05So I had to leave.
00:54:08I hope that one day, you will find it in your heart to forgive both of us for bringing you
00:54:13to this world.
00:54:14You deserve to know your father, and I hope you'll seek him out when the time is right.
00:54:20No, I won't seek him for forgiveness or connection.
00:54:25He doesn't deserve that.
00:54:28I'll seek him out, but it won't be for reconciliation.
00:54:34Richard, you'll know what it feels like to be abandoned, just like you abandoned her.
00:54:56Mom, I'm ready. It's time to get our revenge.
00:55:04Here's to new beginnings.
00:55:07Taking over this company won't be easy, but it has to be done.
00:55:12This is the only way we can get our revenge.
00:55:13Okay, let's see.
00:55:29I'm mean.
00:55:33I'll never learn this. There's so much.
00:55:36And this company is just so complex.
00:55:47No, I can't do it. No. I can't be allowed. That's stupid.
00:55:51I have to do this. Not just for me, but for Mom.
00:56:04I need to be fully prepared for this interview.
00:56:12Good morning, Lily. How are you today?
00:56:14Good morning. I'm doing well. Thank you.
00:56:17I'm excited about this opportunity.
00:56:19Great. You're in a good for the role of the secretary for your commitment, right?
00:56:22Yes, that's correct.
00:56:25That's quite soft-down to your position.
00:56:27Lots of applicants. Are you prepared for the responsibility?
00:56:29I believe I am. Thank you.
00:56:31Wow. Excellent to hear. Let's get right to it, shall we?
00:56:35Yes, let's do it.
00:56:37Thank you for this opportunity. I'm looking forward to contributing and learning from the team.
00:56:43Excellent. Glad to have you here.
00:56:44You just left a strong impression.
00:56:46One more question. Where do you see yourself in the next few years?
00:56:51I see myself growing with the company, taking on more responsibilities, and ensuring its continued success.
00:57:01We're glad to hear that, Lily. Welcome to the team.
00:57:04Thank you. You won't regret it.
00:57:10Yes!
00:57:23One step closer, Mom.
00:57:32Auntie Sarah.
00:57:34Hi. Guess what? I just got the job at Richard's company.
00:57:38That's great. But really, I can understand more than anyone.
00:57:43How you want Richard to pay for what he did. But is this really the result your mother wanted?
00:57:49Yes, Auntie Sarah. This is the only way I can fill that hole of regret that is left in me
00:57:54and my mother's hearts.
00:57:55Okay, sweetie. Just be careful.
00:57:57Avenger is never good for yourself.
00:58:00Yes, Auntie Sarah. I know. But this is the only way. And don't worry. It's only going to get better
00:58:06from here. This is just the beginning.
00:58:09Okay. Bye.
00:58:10Alright. Bye.
00:58:15Richard, soon you'll understand the consequences of your actions.
00:58:25Good morning, sir. I'm Lily, your new personal assistant.
00:58:29Oh, yes, Lily. Welcome. Please, have a seat.
00:58:36You seem remarkably young to be a personal assistant. Do you have any prior experience in this field?
00:58:41Yes, sir. I've been a personal assistant before and I have a solid understanding of what the position entails.
00:58:48Very well, Lily. You're here to assist me in various aspects of my work and personal life. I expect the
00:58:55highest level of professionalism.
00:58:56Of course, sir. I'm here to make your life easier. In fact, I already finished the admin cost analysis for
00:59:03Q3.
00:59:11Very well. That'll be all for now. Thank you.
00:59:23This is great work. You catch on fast, Lily. It's been a while since I've had an assistant who could
00:59:29keep up.
00:59:30Thank you, sir. I'm here to help in any way I can.
00:59:34You know, I've got this nagging feeling that we've met somewhere before or maybe our paths have crossed.
00:59:42Oh, really? That's funny. I can't recall meeting you prior to working here.
00:59:48Keep up the good work.
00:59:49Keep up the good work.
01:00:00Could you really recognize me? I just... he hasn't seen me before. So that doesn't make sense, but...
01:00:07I don't worry. I don't know. Oh!
01:00:11Oh!
01:00:14Hello? Auntie Sarah.
01:00:17Lily, how was your first day at work?
01:00:20It was good. I even met Richard, actually.
01:00:23Really? What did he say?
01:00:27Well, he did say that he might have seen me before somewhere. I'm kind of worried.
01:00:34Don't worry. It's probably a coincidence. Don't worry too much.
01:00:39You're right. Yeah, I shouldn't let it bother me. Thanks, Auntie Sarah.
01:00:49Alright. Just gotta be on guard. Be careful. Be smart.
01:00:56No, no, no. It's fine.
01:01:10Who? Do they know what I'm planning?
01:01:17Okay. That's not good. Just...
01:01:25God, I know who's behind this. I can't let them stop me.
01:01:40Good morning, sir.
01:01:42Good morning, Lily. Please, call me Richard.
01:01:46Okay, Richard. Here are the documents based on yesterday's meeting.
01:01:53Lily, are you sure we have not by chance met before?
01:01:58I don't believe so, Richard. Unless you mean yesterday.
01:02:03Alright, Lily. Let's make this a productive day.
01:02:06Yes, sir.
01:02:14Lily, you're proving to be an invaluable addition to the team.
01:02:17I appreciate your dedication.
01:02:19Thank you, sir. As I said, I'm here to support you in any way I can.
01:02:43Lily, I presume? I've been looking forward to meeting you.
01:02:48Yeah, that's me. I recognize you from my old job at the finance department at IG.
01:02:56You said you could help me?
01:02:59Indeed, I can. I have more confidential information within the company.
01:03:05But first, can you tell me what you've gathered so far?
01:03:10Yeah, sure. Great. Come on.
01:03:12Thanks.
01:03:16This is what I have. Just this. And this.
01:03:23You've done an impressive job here, Lily. Really, I...
01:03:27This is more than I expected.
01:03:30With this and the information I have, we can take a big fish like Richard down.
01:03:34That's my ultimate goal. He deserves to pay for what he did to my mother.
01:03:39Yeah, I know. Your Annie Sarah and my mom are good friends. I heard all about it.
01:03:45But, what's your motive in all this? Like, why are you helping me?
01:03:51I lost my father to this company.
01:03:57This company's ruined more lives than you can imagine.
01:04:01He destroyed my family. I vowed I would take him down.
01:04:07The company looks so pure on the outside, but I knew he was using this money to fund his drug
01:04:12deals.
01:04:13Holy shit.
01:04:17Look, this is his offshore account. All we have to do is trace this money back to his illegal operations.
01:04:23With this, we can ensure that he'll pay for what he did to my mom and your family.
01:04:30Let's get to work.
01:04:31Here, here, here.
01:04:34Here.
01:04:37So, take this.
01:04:42I can't believe how heavily encrypted this file is. It's like nothing I've ever seen before.
01:04:47Alex, we need to break this code. It's crucial to this plan.
01:04:51I know, Lily, but this isn't just standard encryption. This is designed to withstand some of the most advanced hacking
01:04:57attempts.
01:04:59Well, we can't give up now. We have to get inside that file.
01:05:08Any progress, Alex?
01:05:10No. Let me just... shh.
01:05:14That's it. It's open. The document's open.
01:05:18Finally! Okay, let's get inside that file and get what we need.
01:05:27This... this is the solid proof we needed.
01:05:30Richard's criminal empire is exposed in these documents.
01:05:34Money laundering, drug trafficking, political manipulations.
01:05:38He's entangled in all of it.
01:05:41Oh, my God.
01:05:42We... we don't know who we're going to expose in these documents.
01:05:47We need to be really careful with our next move.
01:05:52Richard, your reign of terror is about to end.
01:05:54And we'll be the ones to end it.
01:05:57Lily, I gotta ask you a question.
01:06:01I mean, doesn't this affect you kind of deeply?
01:06:03I mean, Richard... this is your father.
01:06:08Yeah...
01:06:10But... it's because he's my father that I have to end it.
01:06:14He killed my mother.
01:06:16He destroyed our family.
01:06:18And he built his empire on a foundation of corruption and lies.
01:06:22We have to stop him.
01:06:24I won't let something stupid like his blood in my veins stop me from seeking justice.
01:06:28With this data, in your files, we finally have enough evidence to take him down.
01:06:34Yeah, let's do it.
01:06:39Wow.
01:06:40This evidence, combined, is a gold mine.
01:06:44It should be enough.
01:06:47You did a good job.
01:06:49Good job.
01:06:51But we still need to be careful.
01:06:53Because Richard's pretty tricky.
01:06:55And...
01:06:55We need to make sure he has no way to escape the grasp of the law.
01:06:59I understand.
01:07:03Oh, dear.
01:07:18Lily...
01:07:19You know, you're one of the strongest people I know.
01:07:23What you're doing.
01:07:25What we've done.
01:07:26It's incredible.
01:07:27Thank you, Alex.
01:07:29You know, it has been overwhelming.
01:07:31But...
01:07:32I think it's all worth it.
01:07:34I was originally just going to blackmail Richard.
01:07:37And...
01:07:38Once I got to Canada, I would just send the information to the police.
01:07:42But...
01:07:44Now...
01:07:45I feel like, ever since I met you, I want to do things the right way.
01:07:48Lily...
01:07:50You changed your plans...
01:07:52Just for me?
01:07:58Lily...
01:07:58You're right.
01:08:00We don't have to keep running.
01:08:02We don't have to do anything.
01:08:05Lily...
01:08:06As long as I have you...
01:08:08I don't need anything else.
01:08:15Lily...
01:08:16I feel something more than just partnership here.
01:08:20I don't know...
01:08:21Do you feel it, too?
01:08:23Yeah, I do.
01:08:26Lily...
01:08:27I...
01:08:29I...
01:08:29Love you.
01:08:33I do, too.
01:08:45Lily...
01:08:45What brings you here?
01:08:47I want to talk to you about someone, Dad.
01:08:49Do you know someone by the name of...
01:08:52You just call me Dad?
01:08:55Emily was my mother, Dad.
01:08:57You had a one-night stand with her many years ago.
01:09:00And left her to deal with it by herself.
01:09:03She died because she was very sick and we had no money for her hospital bills.
01:09:09I'm not sure who this Emily is.
01:09:11It was a long time ago.
01:09:13She must have fallen for me because of my charm like many others did.
01:09:19Of course her death was a tragedy, but let bygones be bygones.
01:09:22Her death was not a tragedy, Dad.
01:09:25Her death was an injustice.
01:09:27I made a vow to get justice for her.
01:09:36And that's what I'm here to do.
01:09:38What are you talking about, Lily?
01:09:40I've been investigating, Dad.
01:09:42Uncovering secrets, lies, and illegal activities that led me to the truth.
01:09:50Lily?
01:09:52I'm not sure what you think you know, but you should leave this alone.
01:09:56I can't, Dad.
01:09:57I won't.
01:09:59I'll expose everything.
01:10:02And then you'll finally realize what it's like to face the consequences of your actions.
01:10:23What's going on, Clark?
01:10:25Richard, things are getting worse.
01:10:27The evidence against you and the company is piling up.
01:10:29Lily, your daughter, she's relentless.
01:10:31We can't let her win.
01:10:33We have to do something fast.
01:10:35I've got a contact of somebody who can make it disappear.
01:10:38It's risky, but it might be our only way out.
01:10:41Do it.
01:10:42We can't go down without a fight.
01:10:54Lily, we're doing the right thing.
01:10:56We'll get justice for your mother.
01:10:58And your father.
01:11:00I'm grateful for you, Alex.
01:11:01You've been my anchor through this whole thing.
01:11:04We've come so far.
01:11:06But we've got to remain vigilant.
01:11:08You're right.
01:11:09We can't underestimate your father.
01:11:11We're close, but the hardest part may still lie ahead.
01:11:14Would you like me to come with you tomorrow when you face him?
01:11:17No.
01:11:18This is something I want to do alone.
01:11:20Fine. I'll be right outside.
01:11:22Okay. Thank you.
01:11:30Lily, I don't know what you think you know, but we can't let it end like this.
01:11:34We have to find another way.
01:11:36I'm still your father.
01:11:37It's too late for that, Dad.
01:11:40You should have thought about the consequences 20 years ago.
01:11:44Too late.
01:11:45What did you do?
01:11:46What did you do?
01:11:48Open up. It's the police.
01:11:51Richard Goodman, you're under arrest for a series of crimes, including money, laundry, fraud, and drug trafficking.
01:11:58Come on, let's go. Get down.
01:11:59You can't do this to me.
01:12:01Do you know who I am?
01:12:02You've got no real evidence.
01:12:03We have all the evidence we need, Dad.
01:12:06Yeah.
01:12:07Go!
01:12:08Lily!
01:12:09You can't do this to me!
01:12:11I'm still your father!
01:12:13You stopped being my father a long time ago.
01:12:16Alright, that's enough.
01:12:18Go, buddy!
01:12:29It's finally over. Richard is finished.
01:12:33The company's still going, but those shareholders are having a hard time stopping everything from dying.
01:12:39You're so beautiful, Lily. Really, inside and out. I love you.
01:12:44I love you too, Alex.
01:12:51It's Richard. He's being charged with everything we found on him. And more.
01:12:58We did it, Dad. We did it, Lily.
01:13:03Let's forget about this nonsense, Alex. The future is ours.
01:13:08You're right. That's right. But aren't you even a little interested in how many years Richard's gonna get?
01:13:15No. It doesn't matter. We have so much to look forward to, Alex.
01:13:21Yeah. I mean, as long as we got each other, there's nothing we can't do.
01:13:38Good morning, everyone. I hope this call finds you well. I want to thank you all for joining me today,
01:13:45especially considering the recent developments in our company.
01:13:49As you may already know, my father, Richard, has made the decision to step down from his position as CEO
01:13:56following his arrest.
01:13:58He has entrusted the future of this company to me as his only child.
01:14:05I understand the challenges we faced and the dark chapter we're leaving behind.
01:14:12But I want you all to know that my commitment to this company is unwavering.
01:14:19I believe in our potential to make a difference, not only in the business world, but in the lives of
01:14:26our employees and the communities we serve.
01:14:28Under my leadership, we will continue to strive for excellence, ethical practices, and corporate responsibility.
01:14:38I'm committed to leading with integrity and transparency, and I hope to earn your trust and support as we navigate
01:14:45the road ahead.
01:14:46Together, we will build a brighter and more responsible future for this company.
01:14:53Thank you for your words, Lily. Your father's legacy will live on through your leadership. We look forward to working
01:14:59with you to shape the future of this company.
01:15:07You did it. We did it.
01:15:09Yeah. Oh!
01:15:13Who is it?
01:15:14Oh, it's a message from my Auntie Sarah!
01:15:16Lily, I heard that Richard was arrested, and I hope everything is fine. Did you say you met a guy
01:15:22as in boyfriend or just a friend?
01:15:25I wanted to tell you I'm coming to visit you next week. I finally got some time off my crazy
01:15:30job for a vacation. Can't wait. More details soon.
01:15:35She's finally coming to visit! I'm so excited to show her the changes we've made. She'll be beside herself.
01:15:41Oh, I bet she's gonna be real proud of you.
01:15:43Hey, this was for your father too, so give yourself a little credit.
01:15:48Oh, yeah, but the important thing is we found something more precious in the process.
01:15:55Yeah, that's true. You know, I think the universe was speaking to us. It didn't want us to go down
01:16:00a dark path of revenge and lose ourselves.
01:16:04I'm so glad I met you, Alex. You saved me.
01:16:08You and me. I think you're right about the universe, though. It works in mysterious ways.
01:16:16The important thing is, though, that we listened. None of this would have been possible without that.
01:16:21I'm really happy I met you, Alex.
01:16:24Me too.
