Divorce Then Regret What's Her Secret - FULL

Transcript

00:00:00At least, at least use protection.

00:00:04I've always wondered if a woman must give her first time to someone she loves,

00:00:07but when that sharp pain hit, I knew my chance was gone forever.

00:00:11That stranger forced himself on me.

00:00:13I cried so hard I couldn't see clearly.

00:00:15I wanted to run, but I couldn't move, trapped in despair.

00:00:19Knowing there was no escape, I bit my lip to hide my fear and begged him in a dry voice.

00:00:24The man on top of me didn't say a word, became more violent, and I finally blacked out.

00:00:30It wasn't a nightmare.

00:00:31I woke up alone, the pain in my body telling me everything was real.

00:00:36I realized then that the business dinner was a trap.

00:00:39I was getting drunk and sent here to be taken advantage of.

00:00:42Julian, please. They drugged me. Someone is in my room.

00:00:46I'm busy. Call the cops.

00:00:48He crushed every last bit of love I had for him with those few words.

00:00:52Then, I saw it.

00:00:54Julian has come home.

00:00:56I took a deep breath, preparing to confront him.

00:01:01What is it?

00:01:04You're home.

00:01:07You look like you've been dragged through a hedge. What do you want?

00:01:10I wanted my husband.

00:01:12Last night, I needed my husband.

00:01:14I told you I was busy. Don't be so dramatic.

00:01:18I saved your father's life.

00:01:21And for that, my one wish was to marry you.

00:01:24A wish you've regretted every day since, I'm sure.

00:01:26You were an opportunist, Catherine.

00:01:28Nothing more.

00:01:28You wanted to be queen.

00:01:30Stop standing there.

00:01:31Go make breakfast.

00:01:33I'm heading out in half an hour.

00:01:34Julian.

00:01:36What now?

00:01:37Let's get a divorce.

00:01:41A business card on the floor.

00:01:43It was from Nash Group.

00:01:45Julian's company.

00:01:48The morning light felt cold.

00:01:50His smile was always like this mocking, distant, as if I were nothing but a shadow in his life.

00:01:55Last night.

00:01:56How could he speak of it so casually?

00:01:58As if my pain was nothing more than a trivial matter.

00:02:02This is about last night, isn't it?

00:02:04You're upset I didn't come running when you called?

00:02:08Elaine called earlier.

00:02:09She said the Lewis Group deal went through.

00:02:12You'll get your bonus.

00:02:14Don't worry.

00:02:15Eloise, his beloved sister, got me drunk at dinner.

00:02:18That night changed everything.

00:02:20To him, it was nothing.

00:02:22You used a bone marrow donation to push your way into this marriage three years ago.

00:02:27So did you really believe you were so pure and innocent?

00:02:32Don't bother making breakfast.

00:02:34Just get lunch ready and deliver it to my office.

00:02:39Let's just cut to the chase.

00:02:43I'm sure you know what happened to me last night.

00:02:48I want a divorce.

00:02:58He didn't even notice I wasn't the one who made his lunch.

00:03:01After three years of my cooking, nothing else tasted right to him anymore.

00:03:22Three years of marriage ended with a single stroke of the pen.

00:03:26Just like that.

00:03:31Send them to her.

00:03:42Find out who arranged for her to be at that hotel last night.

00:03:53I spent nearly the entire day at the hospital.

00:03:56My twin brother, Austin, had been born with a neurological disorder.

00:04:06Life had been good until I turned 18.

00:04:09That's when everything shattered.

00:04:13The back of my father being escorted to prison.

00:04:16My mother huddled in the corner.

00:04:17The empty factory after the collapse of our family business.

00:04:21And the exhaustion from working at a convenience store late at night.

00:04:29After getting married to Julian, for a moment, I thought I'd found someone who could save me.

00:04:33But even that hope slipped away.

00:04:44It's getting late.

00:04:51I won't be going back.

00:04:53I'm divorcing him.

00:04:54Don't give him any excuse to be upset.

00:04:57People like us can't expect the Nash's to treat us as equals.

00:05:02Who told you what happened?

00:05:06I failed you.

00:05:09I couldn't protect you.

00:05:12If you walk away from Julian now, what happens to me?

00:05:16To Austin?

00:05:19Mom, if Julian ever intended to help, don't you think he would have done something by now?

00:05:29Catherine!

00:05:34The divorce agreement has been signed by Mr. Nash.

00:05:37He has signed the divorce agreement.

00:05:59Julian, calm down.

00:06:00You'll wear yourself out like this.

00:06:02Why are you here?

00:06:04I heard about your argument with Catherine.

00:06:06Don't tell me you're actually getting divorced.

00:06:08Who said that to you?

00:06:15But she cheated on you, Julian.

00:06:18Stay out of things like this.

00:06:19Were you right there, at the bed, watching them?

00:06:22I seriously don't get why you kept her around.

00:06:25That's enough.

00:06:26Let my driver take you home.

00:06:29Kacen, come in.

00:06:30Kacen, you know I matter more than some people.

00:06:33Just don't say anything that'll upset my brother, okay?

00:06:36Of course, Ms. Nash.

00:06:44The hotel footage had already been erased.

00:06:47Nothing was caught on camera.

00:06:48The so-called truth was merely the version those in power wanted you to see.

00:06:55The divorce was still processing, but I had finally started living for myself.

00:07:06He remained the man who knew how to indulge.

00:07:09I was simply the past he wished to forget.

00:07:17Did something happen?

00:07:19Your mother came by today, had an argument, and got so upset that she fainted.

00:07:27In that moment, I knew I had to return, even though no one there would welcome me.

00:07:33I thought leaving here meant a fresh start.

00:07:36Fate had other plans.

00:07:47Two weeks apart, yet his gaze felt sharper than ever.

00:07:54Where's my mom?

00:07:57The scorching sun didn't care about her tears.

00:08:06She came with gifts, but Eloise wouldn't let her through.

00:08:11It was never about me.

00:08:13It was about money and power.

00:08:21Kathy, I only did it because I care.

00:08:25Leaving already?

00:08:26Don't stop the show now.

00:08:28My dad's a softie.

00:08:30He falls for pity parties.

00:08:35Tell me something.

00:08:36What exactly did I do to you?

00:08:39Do you have some kind of hidden agenda or what?

00:08:44She threatened my darkest secret,

00:08:46so I gave her a taste of her own medicine.

00:08:49Ah!

00:09:04How dare you hurt her.

00:09:08She worked with Louis Group and trapped me for a $50 million deal.

00:09:13So tell me, Julian,

00:09:16if your wife is worth $50 million,

00:09:18how much is your sister worth?

00:09:21How much is your sister worth?

00:09:27The moment I saw the storm gathering in his eyes,

00:09:30I knew everything had changed.

00:09:31I didn't do anything to you, Catherine.

00:09:34You went to that dinner on your own.

00:09:36You chose to drink.

00:09:38For the first time,

00:09:39I wasn't afraid to show my teeth.

00:09:43If you're so innocent,

00:09:45let's get the cops involved.

00:09:47Let them sort out the truth.

00:09:53Go get your face looked at first.

00:09:57Something inside me was dying.

00:09:59Not my anger,

00:10:00my hope.

00:10:01The last shred of believing he might ever see me.

00:10:04Julian,

00:10:05I'm to blame.

00:10:07I didn't teach my daughter right.

00:10:09If you're upset,

00:10:10be upset with me.

00:10:12Come upstairs.

00:10:13My dad wants to see you.

00:10:15We're getting divorced.

00:10:17What's the point in pretending anymore?

00:10:19The divorce hasn't been finalized.

00:10:21Whether you really mean it or not,

00:10:23you're still expected to follow through.

00:10:29It's just for show.

00:10:31Don't read too much into it.

00:10:32Don't say a single word about what happened

00:10:34with Lewis Group's CEO.

00:10:35You know who will suffer if this gets out.

00:10:38Relax.

00:10:39I'm not about to run to your dad

00:10:40and spill everything.

00:10:41It was just one night, right?

00:10:44I got paid,

00:10:45had my fun,

00:10:46no big deal.

00:10:50Congratulations.

00:10:51After three years of abstinence,

00:10:53you finally got laid.

00:10:54He called that nightmare fun,

00:10:55then dragged me to see his father,

00:10:57Lawrence.

00:10:58Well,

00:10:58when are you giving me a grandchild?

00:11:00I won't be around forever.

00:11:03Dad,

00:11:04it's not something we can rush.

00:11:06Three years and still nothing?

00:11:07Julian,

00:11:08just be straight with me.

00:11:09Are you

00:11:09having trouble in that area?

00:11:11I'm 26.

00:11:13Do you seriously think

00:11:14that's a possibility?

00:11:17Kathy,

00:11:18is it true?

00:11:20After three years of his coldness,

00:11:22I saw my chance to strike back.

00:11:24Catherine,

00:11:25you'd better think

00:11:26before you speak.

00:11:28Julian has a few

00:11:30concerns,

00:11:31but

00:11:32I believe he's seeking help.

00:11:34Julian!

00:11:35When the hell

00:11:36did this happen?

00:11:37You were so smart before!

00:11:39You really believe

00:11:40the nonsense

00:11:41that falls out of her mouth?

00:11:42Did you lose your sense?

00:11:43She's your wife!

00:11:44She sleeps beside you

00:11:46every night!

00:11:47If anyone knows

00:11:48your body,

00:11:49it's her!

00:11:52Don't stress,

00:11:53Father.

00:11:54With how far

00:11:54medicine has come,

00:11:55there's nothing

00:11:56that can't be dealt with.

00:11:57But he's only in his 20s.

00:11:59And if it came to that,

00:12:01IVF

00:12:01is a completely

00:12:02normal option now.

00:12:04My nonchalant smile

00:12:06sliced right through

00:12:07his pride.

00:12:08Dad,

00:12:09there is nothing

00:12:10wrong with me!

00:12:12If that's true,

00:12:13show me.

00:12:18Show you?

00:12:20What,

00:12:21am I supposed to get

00:12:22an erection

00:12:22right here in front of you?

00:12:27I want a grandson

00:12:28in my arms

00:12:29before the end

00:12:30of the year!

00:12:31I almost dropped

00:12:32the cup in my hand,

00:12:33frozen in place.

00:12:34Julian saw my shock

00:12:35but didn't help me at all.

00:12:36Want to prove

00:12:36your innocence?

00:12:37Clean up this mess

00:12:39yourself.

00:12:40Fine.

00:12:41Casey,

00:12:42make me proud.

00:12:43I knew I was cornered

00:12:44no matter what I said,

00:12:45so I just nodded tightly

00:12:46to get through the moment.

00:12:48Lawrence looked relieved

00:12:49and tired,

00:12:50then went back

00:12:51to his room.

00:12:51You care that I've

00:12:52never touched you,

00:12:53don't you?

00:12:54There has been no

00:12:55intimacy between us

00:12:56since we got married,

00:12:57and I'm telling the truth.

00:13:00So you're saying

00:13:00I'm incapable?

00:13:01How would I owe?

00:13:02Why don't you ask

00:13:03your mistress to explain

00:13:04it clearly to your father?

00:13:06Three years.

00:13:07Your mouth has

00:13:08only started meek.

00:13:09Deleurin can't yams.

00:13:11Tell him sooner

00:13:11rather than later.

00:13:12You just agreed

00:13:13with your own words.

00:13:14Have seconds now?

00:13:15You're far more skillful

00:13:16at scheming

00:13:17than your mother.

00:13:18You really know

00:13:19how to use yourself

00:13:20to manipulate people.

00:13:22Who decides

00:13:22whether I can get pregnant

00:13:23or not if not you?

00:13:25When have I ever begged

00:13:26you to make me pregnant?

00:13:30Julian,

00:13:30leaving so soon?

00:13:32Elise is badly injured.

00:13:33I just got back

00:13:34from the hospital.

00:13:36Please forgive me

00:13:36for being neglectful.

00:13:37Stay in the hospital

00:13:38and rest properly

00:13:39if she's badly hurt.

00:13:40Stop causing trouble

00:13:41all the time.

00:13:42Okay.

00:13:44I know she never likes me.

00:13:48In her eyes,

00:13:49I had no support,

00:13:50and Julian had turned

00:13:51his back on me.

00:13:52Don't let Julian fool me.

00:13:54Find reliable people

00:13:55to keep an eye on them.

00:13:56I must have a grandson.

00:13:58Understood.

00:14:00I never wanted

00:14:01this marriage

00:14:02to begin with.

00:14:07Lawrence,

00:14:08isn't it too much

00:14:08for us to meddle

00:14:09in such a private matter?

00:14:11I know this isn't

00:14:12exactly above board,

00:14:13but that boy

00:14:14left me no choice.

00:14:15Do as I say.

00:14:17The sooner we settle this,

00:14:18the better.

00:14:19Mom!

00:14:20If that scheming bitch

00:14:21gets pregnant

00:14:22with Julian's child,

00:14:23what will happen to Louisa?

00:14:24She's the one

00:14:24who should marry my brother!

00:14:25You're just using her

00:14:26as an excuse

00:14:27to get close to her brother.

00:14:28Marrying into the right family

00:14:30will benefit you two!

00:14:31Don't worry.

00:14:32Everything is under my control.

00:14:34I never expected

00:14:35my divorce

00:14:35to become so complicated.

00:14:37Ever since I moved

00:14:38into Nash Manor,

00:14:39Austin's health

00:14:40has been deteriorating

00:14:41day by day.

00:14:42I was preparing

00:14:42a nutritious meal

00:14:43for Lawrence

00:14:44when Camille walked in.

00:14:45Mr. Nash is truly fortunate

00:14:47to have a thoughtful

00:14:48wife like you.

00:14:49The elder Mr. Nash

00:14:51said everything is fine.

00:14:52You just need to spend

00:14:53more time building

00:14:54a bond with Mr. Nash.

00:14:56She's a spy

00:14:57Lawrence sent

00:14:57to keep an eye on me.

00:14:58We haven't had a meal

00:15:00together since signing

00:15:00the divorce papers.

00:15:02Just as I was about

00:15:03to make up an excuse,

00:15:04Julian arrived.

00:15:05This is for Lawrence.

00:15:06If you're hungry,

00:15:07ask the nanny

00:15:08to make something for you.

00:15:09Catherine.

00:15:10Do you want some soup?

00:15:11Without waiting

00:15:12for his reply,

00:15:13I poured the soup

00:15:14down the drain.

00:15:15All right.

00:15:16There's nothing left now.

00:15:17Julian looked angry

00:15:18but said nothing.

00:15:19I felt as if I were

00:15:20locked in a cage.

00:15:21I didn't sleep that night

00:15:22and quietly went

00:15:23to the study

00:15:23to talk to him.

00:15:25I can handle your father

00:15:26but we need

00:15:28a reasonable excuse.

00:15:30Bring your lover back.

00:15:32Say you've fallen

00:15:33for someone else.

00:15:34I'm willing to step aside.

00:15:38So if my dad

00:15:39gets too worked up

00:15:40and something happens

00:15:41to him,

00:15:42it's all on me now?

00:15:44That's a convenient

00:15:45little setup

00:15:45you've got there.

00:15:46He laughed

00:15:46that chilling humorless laugh

00:15:48that sent ice

00:15:48down my spine.

00:15:49Even if you managed

00:15:50to calm him down

00:15:51after telling him

00:15:51the truth,

00:15:52does that mean

00:15:52the drama ends there?

00:15:53Your mom,

00:15:54your brother,

00:15:54your chailed dad,

00:15:55will they all magically

00:15:55disappear from my

00:15:56family's radar?

00:15:57I never dragged you

00:15:58into any of their problems.

00:15:59True,

00:15:59you didn't come asking

00:16:00for handouts.

00:16:01But do you even know

00:16:02what kind of favors

00:16:02she's been cashing in?

00:16:03All right then.

00:16:04Show me what you've got.

00:16:06Or skip the effort.

00:16:07Just drug me.

00:16:08I'll even have

00:16:09a few bottles delivered.

00:16:19Aren't the two of you

00:16:20heading to bed soon?

00:16:24I thought he married

00:16:25me for love.

00:16:26It was always

00:16:27just a transaction.

00:16:33That business card,

00:16:34that night,

00:16:35that man,

00:16:35I kept it like

00:16:37my last trump card.

00:16:48sir,

00:16:49I need to tell you

00:16:50something.

00:16:51Go on.

00:17:00It's about your wife.

00:17:01She messaged me

00:17:02last night.

00:17:05Hi,

00:17:06are you free

00:17:07to sleep with me?

00:17:10Sir,

00:17:10perhaps someone

00:17:11hacked your wife's number

00:17:12as a prank

00:17:12to drive a wedge

00:17:13accusations?

00:17:15If it was a hack,

00:17:16the dark circles

00:17:17under your eyes

00:17:17tell me you'd have

00:17:18found the culprit

00:17:19last night.

00:17:19I checked.

00:17:20The message came

00:17:21from inside the villa.

00:17:22Get a new phone later.

00:17:23Charge it to the company.

00:17:25Sir,

00:17:25could she just be

00:17:26venting

00:17:27about that night?

00:17:31Unbelievable.

00:17:32She's scheming

00:17:33to get pregnant

00:17:34on the sly.

00:17:35Get a new sim card

00:17:36and hand over

00:17:37your current number.

00:17:40Sir,

00:17:40that number

00:17:41is connected to

00:17:41now.

00:17:45Got it,

00:17:45sir.

00:17:48And the investigation

00:17:49I ordered?

00:17:49Or are you getting

00:17:50paid a million dollars

00:17:51to cozy up

00:17:52to Eloase?

00:17:53Sir,

00:17:54please,

00:17:54let me explain.

00:17:57I spent the day

00:17:58trying to see my father,

00:17:59but they wouldn't

00:18:00let me in.

00:18:01When I got home,

00:18:02the housekeeper

00:18:02met me at the door.

00:18:03Mrs. Nash.

00:18:04Mr. Nash asked

00:18:05if you could bring

00:18:06some food to the study.

00:18:07He's still waiting.

00:18:08He didn't touch

00:18:09dinner at all.

00:18:10Only a few sips

00:18:10of soup.

00:18:11He asked

00:18:12where you were.

00:18:16Where's Catherine?

00:18:17She went to

00:18:18the hospital,

00:18:19sir.

00:18:22Mrs. Nash said

00:18:23these were your favorites,

00:18:24so I followed

00:18:25her instructions.

00:18:28She told you that?

00:18:30All my emotions

00:18:31are settling down

00:18:32at this moment.

00:18:37I am not

00:18:38his servant.

00:18:39Not anymore.

00:18:52What on earth

00:18:52are you doing here?

00:18:56This is my house.

00:18:58Why couldn't I be here?

00:19:01We've always kept

00:19:03to separate rooms.

00:19:04What changed tonight?

00:19:07The housekeeper's

00:19:08posted up outside.

00:19:09You can sneak back

00:19:11to your room

00:19:11once she's asleep.

00:19:13Fine.

00:19:14You figure out

00:19:15how to slip away.

00:19:16Before I could reply,

00:19:17he stripped off

00:19:18his shirt.

00:19:19I instinctively

00:19:20pulled the blanket

00:19:21tighter around myself.

00:19:22I'm just going

00:19:23for a shower.

00:19:24What did you think

00:19:25I was going to do?

00:19:25It's the dead of night.

00:19:27A man and a woman alone.

00:19:28How am I supposed

00:19:29to know what you're planning?

00:19:30Only if I'd lost my mind

00:19:31would I ever want

00:19:32anything with you.

00:19:34It really does seem

00:19:35like you've lost

00:19:35your grip these days.

00:19:37Want your freedom?

00:19:38Then deal with

00:19:39the housekeeper yourself.

00:19:40As he walked

00:19:41to the bathroom,

00:19:42my eyes landed

00:19:42on the scratch marks

00:19:43on his back.

00:19:44Deep scratches

00:19:45from a woman's nails.

00:19:46You take the bed.

00:19:47I'll handle

00:19:47the housekeeper tomorrow.

00:19:48I've changed the sheets.

00:19:50They're fresh.

00:19:53Didn't the housekeeper

00:19:54pass along my message?

00:19:55The whole table

00:19:56was loaded with food

00:19:57I'm allergic for.

00:19:58I couldn't touch it.

00:19:59What?

00:19:59Didn't she ask about

00:20:00your allergies

00:20:01before she began?

00:20:01His accusation

00:20:02was so heartless.

00:20:03I couldn't speak.

00:20:05Didn't she learn

00:20:05it all from you?

00:20:06Wasn't it your idea

00:20:07to have her make

00:20:08something I couldn't eat

00:20:09so you could swoop in

00:20:10and save the day?

00:20:10I just spun around

00:20:11and fled the room in tears.

00:20:13I ended up in the kitchen

00:20:14cooking pasta for him.

00:20:17As my tears fell

00:20:18into the boiling water,

00:20:21what, are we so broke

00:20:22we can't afford salt now?

00:20:23Is that why you're

00:20:24seasoning it like that?

00:20:28Next time, don't cry.

00:20:29You look like a ghost

00:20:30out for revenge.

00:20:34I snatched Julian's phone,

00:20:36put it on speaker.

00:20:37How's your face, Eloise?

00:20:39Still sore?

00:20:40Catherine?

00:20:41What are you doing

00:20:42with my brother's phone?

00:20:43You pushed your way

00:20:44into marrying him.

00:20:45He never sees you

00:20:46as his wife.

00:20:47Julian and I are married.

00:20:48Why wouldn't we be?

00:20:49You've destroyed

00:20:50whatever he had

00:20:51with Louisa.

00:20:51You're disgusting.

00:20:53Of course.

00:20:55It's all me.

00:20:56Every night,

00:20:56I threaten him

00:20:57with a knife

00:20:58just to make him

00:20:58come home.

00:20:59Your father's serving

00:21:0025 years for

00:21:01first-degree murder,

00:21:02isn't he?

00:21:02No, he was framed.

00:21:04I, indeed offered a guard

00:21:06200,000 yesterday.

00:21:08But he didn't take it.

00:21:10The money wasn't yours.

00:21:11This won't affect you.

00:21:13I'm free next Wednesday.

00:21:15I'll go visit him with you.

00:21:17Doing this out of kindness?

00:21:19For a moment,

00:21:19warmth stirred in me.

00:21:21Then I saw his mocking smile.

00:21:22This was not kindness,

00:21:24but leverage.

00:21:24Aren't things like this

00:21:25part of being married?

00:21:27I apologized for last night.

00:21:29He stared at me

00:21:30longer than usual.

00:21:31Was that attraction?

00:21:36Don't read into it.

00:21:37I'm not a germaphobe.

00:21:38I just don't want

00:21:39anything left behind.

00:21:40Your hands touched it.

00:21:42I'm sorry about last night.

00:21:44I lost control.

00:21:45If there's anything

00:21:46you need from me,

00:21:47just say it.

00:21:49You grabbed my phone

00:21:51and provoked Elise.

00:21:52What exactly were you planning?

00:21:59That date,

00:22:00that promise,

00:22:01he was using it against me.

00:22:02Then I guess I should go ahead

00:22:03and cancel my plan

00:22:04next Wednesday.

00:22:06Me?

00:22:07Provoking Eloise

00:22:08for some purpose?

00:22:09She came at me first,

00:22:10so I pushed back,

00:22:11that's all.

00:22:12I recorded the call.

00:22:14And you really think

00:22:14someone like her

00:22:15would be shaken by that?

00:22:19I thought about dropping it

00:22:20in your clan's group chat.

00:22:22That clip would have done

00:22:22more damage to you

00:22:23than to her.

00:22:23I made sure you weren't in it.

00:22:26You're still keeping your promise

00:22:27for next Wednesday, right?

00:22:30Can I trust you not to lie to me?

00:22:32Depends on how I feel.

00:22:34My leverage,

00:22:35worthless before him.

00:22:41If it weren't for Catherine

00:22:42pulling the strings with my dad,

00:22:43Julian wouldn't still be trapped

00:22:44in that ridiculous marriage.

00:22:46You don't deserve to be

00:22:47sidelined like this.

00:22:48I really don't mind.

00:22:49Just knowing I hold

00:22:50even a small place

00:22:51in his seant

00:22:51is enough for me.

00:22:52Hey, do you know

00:22:54if Julian's free tonight?

00:22:55I'll ask Kastin.

00:22:56He'll know what Julian's

00:22:57schedule looks like.

00:23:11Sure.

00:23:15Julian, would you like

00:23:16to have dinner with me?

00:23:18I'm free.

00:23:19Let's go.

00:23:22Not to get the Catherine-y.

00:23:24How's Catherine these days?

00:23:26You're not getting younger.

00:23:27You should think about your future.

00:23:29I'm focusing on my career.

00:23:33I waited for so long,

00:23:35prepared his favorite dishes,

00:23:36lit candles,

00:23:37but he didn't come home.

00:23:50He's not incapable of romance.

00:23:52He just never was romantic with me.

00:23:59You're always at home,

00:24:01dressed plainly,

00:24:01no makeup.

00:24:02How can you expect Mr. Nash

00:24:03to stay interested?

00:24:04If you look beautiful and confident,

00:24:06he will come running back.

00:24:08But Julian already belongs

00:24:10to someone else.

00:24:11If he's free to enjoy himself

00:24:12out there,

00:24:13why should I be faithful?

00:24:18But cheating outside marriage

00:24:19is just not right.

00:24:21So Julian's actions

00:24:23aren't cheating?

00:24:24Is it because he's a man

00:24:25that it somehow doesn't count?

00:24:29The autumn wind is so cold,

00:24:31but compared to the chill

00:24:33in my heart,

00:24:33this cold is nothing.

00:24:42Is love really that necessary?

00:24:45This someone you mentioned,

00:24:47who exactly are you talking about?

00:24:49There was this dog.

00:24:50He had an owner,

00:24:51a real home.

00:24:53The owner even went as far

00:24:54as arranging a marriage for him.

00:24:55I saw the dog wandering alone,

00:24:57so I gave him some food.

00:24:58But some dogs just can't be tamed.

00:25:00For my father's visitation rights,

00:25:02I had to bow my head.

00:25:03This isn't surrender,

00:25:04it's strategy.

00:25:05That dog wouldn't happen

00:25:06to go by the name Nash,

00:25:07would it?

00:25:07It's me.

00:25:08I'm a dog.

00:25:09Come on, bark for me.

00:25:10Oh, and maybe get your heart checked.

00:25:12Every time you're near me,

00:25:13it goes wild.

00:25:22You know what I'm really after.

00:25:29Hey, Dad.

00:25:31What's going on?

00:25:33At that moment,

00:25:34I knew everything was about to change.

00:25:37Let go.

00:25:39Not really.

00:25:40We haven't gone to bed yet.

00:25:42My only real wish now

00:25:43is for a grandchild.

00:25:45She was secretly studying up

00:25:47on the best positions.

00:25:49She's really worked wonders on you.

00:25:52He said I was studying positions,

00:25:54the bastard.

00:25:56This long?

00:25:57My hand touched somewhere

00:25:58I shouldn't have.

00:25:59The size.

00:26:00Impossible.

00:26:01Julian,

00:26:02you might have a medical condition.

00:26:04Maybe some kind of

00:26:06viragous issue?

00:26:07You don't have to sugarcoat it

00:26:08to compliment me.

00:26:10You and I can lead

00:26:11separate personal lives.

00:26:13But I can.

00:26:14If you can promise me

00:26:15he's innocent,

00:26:16changing the outcome

00:26:17is only a matter of time.

00:26:19I need to rest.

00:26:21This damn marriage.

00:26:23I didn't mean to shut it

00:26:25so hard earlier.

00:26:25I'm doing it again,

00:26:26properly this time.

00:26:28This damn marriage.

00:26:30Kacen,

00:26:31book a complete medical evaluation

00:26:32for me first thing tomorrow.

00:26:37So it turns out

00:26:39I've hated the wrong person

00:26:40for five years.

00:26:41Five years?

00:26:42He endured so much understanding

00:26:45yet never offered

00:26:46an explanation.

00:26:47Julian,

00:26:47the husband I never gave

00:26:48a second glance.

00:26:49Now I understand

00:26:50what forbearance

00:26:51lay behind every coldness.

00:26:59What are you doing here?

00:27:01Routine check.

00:27:02How about you?

00:27:03Routine physical examination.

00:27:05So close yet so far.

00:27:07The distance between us

00:27:09has never felt so vast,

00:27:10so suffocating.

00:27:12Julian,

00:27:13that night-

00:27:13No need to say more.

00:27:14There's nothing to explain.

00:27:16But I-

00:27:16How is your inspection result?

00:27:18Is he running?

00:27:19Or protecting me?

00:27:21Sis,

00:27:21you look different today.

00:27:23There's light in your eyes.

00:27:25Has something

00:27:26happened?

00:27:29Nothing much.

00:27:30Just figured some things out.

00:27:32In this world,

00:27:33only you truly love me.

00:27:34Austin,

00:27:35dear brother,

00:27:35mother never cared for us.

00:27:37We were just her pawns.

00:27:40Three years of marriage,

00:27:42all I got was silence

00:27:43and humiliation.

00:27:45This is a gift for Ernest.

00:27:47I need to pay for it myself.

00:27:48That's what makes it meaningful.

00:27:50I'm gonna put it on his wrist tonight.

00:27:51Your allowance seems to multiply

00:27:53rather quickly these days.

00:27:55Who said it's just your allowance?

00:27:56I've been investing with Louisa lately

00:27:58and made some money.

00:28:01Is she buying clothes for another man?

00:28:03Shut up.

00:28:04She's not like that.

00:28:05See?

00:28:06The sweater she's holding

00:28:07isn't even your size.

00:28:09It must be for some old man.

00:28:14Ma'am,

00:28:15this sweater will suit

00:28:16your dad perfectly.

00:28:18Let me look at this tie too.

00:28:23Ma'am,

00:28:24this tie is this year's new style

00:28:25perfect for your husband.

00:28:30All right.

00:28:31I'll take it.

00:28:34Sir.

00:28:35Madam is waiting for you upstairs.

00:28:37Waiting for me?

00:28:38Why?

00:28:39You'll know when you go up, sir.

00:28:45Catherine?

00:28:47You're waiting for me?

00:28:48Um,

00:28:49this is for you.

00:28:51For me?

00:28:52Why?

00:28:55So,

00:28:56what do you want?

00:28:59It's nothing.

00:29:00I saw a tie today

00:29:01and thought of you.

00:29:03You thought of me?

00:29:05How sweet.

00:29:07Do you

00:29:08like it?

00:29:09You put it on me.

00:29:13I've never learned

00:29:14to tie one properly.

00:29:15Used to insist on doing it.

00:29:17Every single morning.

00:29:19That version of me

00:29:20doesn't exist anymore.

00:29:21I've forgotten.

00:29:24Fine.

00:29:30It's done.

00:29:31Now,

00:29:32my dad's been worried.

00:29:33I thought if we took a picture together

00:29:34it might easy his mind.

00:29:36A picture?

00:29:38All this drama for a picture?

00:29:39Just stand still.

00:29:41And could you try to look like

00:29:42you don't want to kill me?

00:29:43I leaned closer

00:29:45forcing a painful smile

00:29:46and miscalculated

00:29:47the distance

00:29:48my lips brushed

00:29:49his lightly.

00:29:50I'm sorry, I...

00:29:51Don't move.

00:29:53Why aren't you

00:29:54pushing me away?

00:29:55Where's the contempt?

00:29:57He didn't push me away.

00:29:59Instead,

00:29:59he held my waist

00:30:00and the back of my head

00:30:01deepening the kiss.

00:30:08His kiss wasn't gentle.

00:30:10It was harsh

00:30:11and overpowering.

00:30:13Julian!

00:30:14Stop!

00:30:15Let me go!

00:30:16And I couldn't breathe.

00:30:18I tried to push him away

00:30:19but he just pulled me

00:30:20onto his lap

00:30:21his arms locking

00:30:22around my waist.

00:30:23Catherine.

00:30:25The moment his grip loosened

00:30:27I scrambled to the other

00:30:28end of the room.

00:30:29You didn't take a picture.

00:30:30You recorded audio.

00:30:33Give that back to me!

00:30:34My wife,

00:30:35he had recorded everything.

00:30:36All those little gasps.

00:30:38I must have missed them

00:30:39at the time.

00:30:39Delete it!

00:30:40This is my room!

00:30:41You need to get out!

00:30:46Later,

00:30:46with his help,

00:30:47I was finally able

00:30:48to visit my father

00:30:49in prison.

00:30:53Dad?

00:30:54It's me,

00:30:55Catherine.

00:30:56He looked so frail.

00:30:58He reached for me,

00:30:59trying to speak

00:30:59but only distorted sounds

00:31:01came out.

00:31:01Miss Clark,

00:31:02our time is up.

00:31:04I don't understand.

00:31:06Who would do this?

00:31:08Before we left,

00:31:09Mr. Nash instructed me

00:31:10to check on your father's

00:31:11circumstances.

00:31:13Julian did?

00:31:14Julian?

00:31:15Why would he do that?

00:31:16I spoke to an old

00:31:17acquaintance inside.

00:31:18He'll make sure your father

00:31:19is protected.

00:31:20He planned for this?

00:31:21He knew.

00:31:22He knew this would happen.

00:31:26This is a specialty pastry

00:31:28from Julian's mother's hometown.

00:31:30He loved it as a child.

00:31:32I'll learn carefully.

00:31:35To thank him,

00:31:36I learned to make

00:31:36his Child Hill pastry.

00:31:44The lobby was as cold

00:31:46and imposing

00:31:46as the man

00:31:47who owned it.

00:31:49No appointment,

00:31:50no meeting.

00:31:51You need to leave.

00:31:52I refuse to be intimidated.

00:31:54I was just here

00:31:55to deliver a thank you.

00:31:56I'm just dropping

00:31:56something off

00:31:57for Julian Nash.

00:31:58You can check

00:31:58with his assistant.

00:32:00Every woman who shows up

00:32:02says the same thing.

00:32:03Spare me the act.

00:32:04Just call K's and Price.

00:32:06If you're so confident,

00:32:07call him yourself.

00:32:09Or do you think

00:32:10you're Miss Wright

00:32:10who can waltz in here

00:32:11whenever she pleases?

00:32:13Her words hit me

00:32:14like a physical blow.

00:32:15Miss Wright.

00:32:16The name echoed

00:32:17in the cavernous lobby

00:32:18and in my heart.

00:32:20I took out my phone

00:32:21and called Julian,

00:32:22but it went unanswered.

00:32:24Having trouble

00:32:25getting through?

00:32:27Fine.

00:32:28I'll just leave this here.

00:32:29Please see that he gets it.

00:32:32Don't bother.

00:32:33He won't touch

00:32:34anything you bring.

00:32:35It'll go straight

00:32:35in the trash.

00:32:36Just then,

00:32:37a familiar ding

00:32:38cut through the silence

00:32:39and the world

00:32:39seemed to stop.

00:32:41Good day, Mr. Nash.

00:32:44Catherine,

00:32:45why didn't you wait

00:32:46for me in my office?

00:32:48Have you eaten?

00:32:50Let's talk upstairs.

00:32:52No.

00:32:53I made this to thank you.

00:32:55Eat it or throw it away.

00:32:56I'm leaving.

00:32:57I turned to walk away,

00:32:58but he caught my wrist.

00:32:59His grip firm.

00:33:01Why are you acting like this?

00:33:03Did she give you trouble?

00:33:10Mr. Price, please.

00:33:11I fought so hard for this job.

00:33:13I swear I didn't do anything to her.

00:33:15You made a huge mistake.

00:33:16HR will handle your severance.

00:33:19I followed Julian

00:33:21into his office.

00:33:23He opened the pastry box

00:33:25I brought

00:33:25and the fragrance

00:33:27drifted softly

00:33:28through the silent air.

00:33:29Well,

00:33:29be honest.

00:33:30What's the score?

00:33:35Three out of ten.

00:33:37Huh.

00:33:38Three?

00:33:38And yet you're

00:33:39devouring them

00:33:40like a starving man.

00:33:41What a liar.

00:33:44How did the housekeeper

00:33:46know how to make these?

00:33:46He said it's a specialty

00:33:47from your mother's hometown.

00:33:49Thought you might remember the taste.

00:33:51His face shifted.

00:33:52Just a flicker

00:33:53of something unreadable

00:33:54crossing his features

00:33:55before he set

00:33:56the empty container aside.

00:33:58What's wrong?

00:33:59If you hated it,

00:33:59just say so.

00:34:00I won't make it again.

00:34:02Catherine,

00:34:03why doesn't your cooking

00:34:04ever set off my allergies?

00:34:07Just took some effort,

00:34:09that's all.

00:34:12There's a private lounge here.

00:34:14Get cleaned up

00:34:14with a hot shower

00:34:15before you go.

00:34:18It's fine.

00:34:19I'll just do it at home.

00:34:21If you end up

00:34:22with pneumonia,

00:34:22I'm tossing you

00:34:23and the pastries

00:34:24straight into the dumpster.

00:34:26Your top's

00:34:27practically transparent.

00:34:29You got a problem?

00:34:33I stepped out

00:34:34of his shower,

00:34:35wrapped in a towel.

00:34:38And that's remember

00:34:39the mom's skewvition towel,

00:34:41only to realize

00:34:42my clothes

00:34:42were still dripping wet.

00:34:48That moment,

00:34:49my heart skipped a beat,

00:34:51his gesture so casual,

00:34:52as if no distance

00:34:53existed between us at all.

00:34:59I thought he needed comfort,

00:35:01never knowing his wound

00:35:02wasn't in longing,

00:35:03but in those pasts

00:35:04he refused to speak of.

00:35:06thinking about your mom?

00:35:08I barely remember her face,

00:35:09so no,

00:35:10not likely.

00:35:16I...

00:35:17I wasn't aware

00:35:18she was here.

00:35:19Apologies,

00:35:19I'll come back.

00:35:25since you like it,

00:35:26try it on.

00:35:28That moment,

00:35:29my heart skipped a beat,

00:35:31his gesture so casual,

00:35:32as if no distance

00:35:33existed between us at all.

00:35:37Pretty average.

00:35:45we went shopping at the boutique

00:35:47with laughter and joy.

00:35:51Oh, come on,

00:35:52you and your husband

00:35:52must have experimented,

00:35:54right?

00:35:55After exiting the mall,

00:35:56I saw his car

00:35:57parked by the roadside.

00:36:00Julian!

00:36:01What a surprise

00:36:02seeing you here!

00:36:06I found out later

00:36:07what happened

00:36:07to the necklace

00:36:08Julian gave me.

00:36:09He went to his office

00:36:09and found the velvet box gone.

00:36:11Has my wife been

00:36:12in my office lately?

00:36:13No, sir,

00:36:13but your sister

00:36:14has stopped by

00:36:14more than once.

00:36:18What's wrong,

00:36:19Elloween?

00:36:19It's Julian.

00:36:20He's being so dramatic.

00:36:21I bet Catherine

00:36:22stirred things up

00:36:23and now he's

00:36:23lashing out at me.

00:36:25Elloween,

00:36:25isn't Linna Grant

00:36:26hosting a celebration soon?

00:36:27Let's merge my birthday

00:36:28celebration with her event.

00:36:29A birthday is just a date.

00:36:31Building connections

00:36:31is what truly matters.

00:36:32You're leagues ahead

00:36:33of Catherine,

00:36:33so thoughtful and poised.

00:36:35He'd be a fool

00:36:35not to fall for you.

00:36:37What is it?

00:36:38I need a shirt

00:36:38to go with this.

00:36:39There's an event tomorrow.

00:36:41What kind of event is it?

00:36:42Are you one of the key guests?

00:36:43It's Lila Grant's

00:36:44hundred-day milestone

00:36:44with her boyfriend.

00:36:45I'm just talking business.

00:36:46I don't want to draw

00:36:47too much attention.

00:36:47I was just adjusting

00:36:48his collar,

00:36:49but my fingers brushed

00:36:50against his chest.

00:36:51He was perfectly sculpted.

00:36:53Lost in thought,

00:36:54or are you meditating?

00:36:55Feel free to admire.

00:36:56I can take the shirt off

00:36:57if you want a better look.

00:37:00Take off your shirt,

00:37:01now.

00:37:02And what exactly

00:37:03are those flower-shaped things?

00:37:04Nipple covers.

00:37:05I got them ages ago.

00:37:06Your shirt is sheer.

00:37:07These will prevent

00:37:08things from showing.

00:37:12And slap them

00:37:13onto his chest.

00:37:14That's all.

00:37:15I'm going to bed now.

00:37:17At the gala,

00:37:18I stared at my reflection,

00:37:20almost a stranger

00:37:21to myself.

00:37:23I put on the mask,

00:37:25hoping to remain unseen.

00:37:29Miss Grant,

00:37:30today is my birthday,

00:37:32and Julian has been

00:37:33buried in work.

00:37:34Could I borrow your pianist

00:37:35for just a moment?

00:37:36A song might help him relax.

00:37:37I'll need to ask first.

00:37:40It should be her choice.

00:37:41I appreciate that.

00:37:44She's the pianist I mentioned.

00:37:46Incredibly gifted.

00:37:47Miss Grant,

00:37:48you're giving me too much credit.

00:37:49I'm just here to earn a living.

00:37:50You're too humble.

00:37:51They brought in a Steinway for you.

00:37:53So,

00:37:54what's with the mask?

00:37:55It's just how the outfit

00:37:56was designed.

00:38:04I kept telling myself

00:38:05I had moved on,

00:38:06but seeing them together

00:38:08was a special kind of cruelty.

00:38:11Catherine.

00:38:15I...

00:38:15I have to get back.

00:38:16So it really is you.

00:38:18Leaving already?

00:38:19That's a little impolite.

00:38:20Please,

00:38:21let me pass.

00:38:22Are you afraid of me?

00:38:23But why?

00:38:25I'm just someone Julian knows.

00:38:27You're his wife,

00:38:28aren't you?

00:38:28Or does seeing me

00:38:29really shake you that much?

00:38:35I ran,

00:38:36her mocking voice

00:38:37echoing behind me.

00:38:39I had to get this over with.

00:38:43This pastry is claying.

00:38:45Already bored?

00:38:46We can head out soon if you want.

00:38:48No need to worry about me.

00:38:49Then,

00:38:50the light softened.

00:38:51A piano melody

00:38:52swept through the hall.

00:38:54Everyone turned

00:38:55to watch the couple kiss.

00:38:57But Julian's eyes,

00:38:59they bypassed them completely

00:39:00and landed right on me.

00:39:05Even in a room full of people,

00:39:07I could feel the whispers

00:39:08turning towards me.

00:39:09Who is that at the piano?

00:39:11I don't know.

00:39:12I've never seen her before.

00:39:13She seems young.

00:39:15Probably just hired help.

00:39:16If she's not from our circle,

00:39:18I might have a shot.

00:39:19Don't.

00:39:23I could feel his eyes on me

00:39:24from across the room,

00:39:25a commanding presence

00:39:26that felt like it could see

00:39:27right through my mask.

00:39:33Julian!

00:39:34Then,

00:39:34a cheerful voice

00:39:35cut through the tension,

00:39:37pulling his attention away.

00:39:39What's inside?

00:39:40It's for you!

00:39:41How would I know?

00:39:42Just open it!

00:39:45He pulled the ribbon,

00:39:46and pink balloons

00:39:47soared into the air

00:39:48one after another,

00:39:49with Louisa emerging

00:39:50from among them.

00:39:53It's your birthday.

00:39:55Why wrap yourself

00:39:56like a present?

00:39:57Will you take the gift, Julian?

00:39:59Watching him offer tenderness

00:40:01to another woman

00:40:01sent a sharp H through me.

00:40:03He was my husband,

00:40:05and I was just a bystander.

00:40:06Miss,

00:40:07here's the piece

00:40:08Miss Wright asked for.

00:40:12I braced myself

00:40:13and began to play,

00:40:14but my fingers faltered,

00:40:16striking a harsh,

00:40:17jaring chord

00:40:17that silenced the hall.

00:40:20What happened?

00:40:21She stopped.

00:40:23A blade!

00:40:24There's a blade

00:40:25wedged between the keys!

00:40:34Hurts, doesn't it?

00:40:39I found the blade

00:40:40Louisa hid

00:40:41between the piano keys,

00:40:42an execution

00:40:43aimed straight at my hands.

00:40:45What made her stop

00:40:46playing all of a sudden?

00:40:48Seriously,

00:40:48who hired this pianist?

00:40:50Is she deaf

00:40:50or just ignoring us?

00:40:52I pulled the blade free

00:40:53and began to play again.

00:40:54What is this melody?

00:40:55It's haunting.

00:40:57She should be crying in pain.

00:40:58Is she playing a mourning song

00:41:00on Louisa's birthday?

00:41:02Julian,

00:41:03why is everyone staring?

00:41:04They don't seem very pleased.

00:41:06Julian,

00:41:07it's my fault.

00:41:08I only meant to borrow her

00:41:09for a short while.

00:41:10Maybe she's upset.

00:41:12She's not even mad, right?

00:41:13She's playing perfectly fine.

00:41:15Please,

00:41:15just let it go.

00:41:16I should have thought things through.

00:41:18Eloane,

00:41:18bring her here.

00:41:21When the last note faded,

00:41:23I didn't wait to be summoned.

00:41:25I snatched a silver fork

00:41:26from a table

00:41:27and walked straight for her.

00:41:31My brother wants to talk to you.

00:41:34Julian,

00:41:35stop her!

00:41:36She's coming for me!

00:41:39That's enough.

00:41:41I sidestepped him

00:41:42and lunged for Louisa.

00:41:44He moved to block me,

00:41:45catching my wrist

00:41:46just as he ripped my mask away.

00:41:50Catherine?

00:41:51Are you out of your damn mind?

00:41:53Let go.

00:41:55She tried to stab me, Julian!

00:41:56She's insane!

00:41:58My grip rip tightened.

00:42:00You will answer to me!

00:42:03No.

00:42:04She will.

00:42:05She will.

00:42:06I sent Louisa crashing to the floor

00:42:09with one swift kick.

00:42:11What the hell is wrong with you?

00:42:13You crazy bitch!

00:42:15Enough!

00:42:17He seized my wrist

00:42:18and jerked me backward,

00:42:20shoving me toward Louisa.

00:42:22Say you're sorry.

00:42:24Let me go.

00:42:26You're going to apologize.

00:42:29Right now.

00:42:30If you want to play judge,

00:42:31call the cops.

00:42:32You don't get to command me.

00:42:34Julian!

00:42:35This is a public event.

00:42:36Let it go.

00:42:38Ernest,

00:42:40take Louisa to the hospital.

00:42:43Julian.

00:42:45He dragged me out of the hotel,

00:42:46his grip like iron.

00:42:52Why did you go after Louisa?

00:42:55Let me go.

00:42:57Answer me.

00:42:58What do you want me to admit?

00:43:00Even if she started it,

00:43:01you wouldn't believe me anyway.

00:43:03Started it?

00:43:04She never left my side.

00:43:05Do you hear how ridiculous you sound?

00:43:09I knew you'd say that.

00:43:10You always rush to her defense.

00:43:12Starting now,

00:43:14you don't mean anything to me.

00:43:21Julian,

00:43:22come with me.

00:43:23Louisa needs you at the hospital.

00:43:29The banquet scene was in chaos.

00:43:32I walked tall,

00:43:33unable to hide the turmoil inside me.

00:43:35Trail her.

00:43:36Make sure she gets back safely.

00:43:38Yes,

00:43:39sir.

00:43:43What's going on with Louisa?

00:43:45You're going to check on her?

00:43:46One more won't make a difference.

00:43:48She might refuse the driver you sent.

00:43:50Should I take her?

00:43:51Your own sister is hurt,

00:43:52and you're worried about her instead?

00:43:54Just a joke.

00:43:55I know my limits.

00:43:56The dried blood catching the light.

00:43:58Wait,

00:43:58is this blood?

00:44:00Get this treated

00:44:01at the hospital.

00:44:05She humiliated me,

00:44:07and Julian just stood by and watched?

00:44:10You'd better be honest about what you did to Catherine.

00:44:14It's just a minor injury.

00:44:16He won't care.

00:44:20Sir,

00:44:21Madam hasn't returned home yet.

00:44:25Don't mention her again.

00:44:27She was so full of joy this morning,

00:44:29saying she wanted to celebrate with you.

00:44:32I'm sorry for getting you mixed up in this.

00:44:35I just lost control for a moment.

00:44:38You're too soft.

00:44:39If it had been me,

00:44:41I would have killed her.

00:44:44I later learned that Lila insisted on talking to Julian.

00:44:47We don't even know Julian Nash.

00:44:49Why on earth would he care what we have to say?

00:44:51Lila was annoyed by Louisa's overstepping at her party.

00:44:54Whether he listens or not doesn't matter.

00:44:57I just want to get some justice.

00:44:59Julian agreed to the meeting easily,

00:45:01but his mood was unusually bad that day.

00:45:06That night involved Miss Wright and Mrs. Nash.

00:45:08It would reflect poorly on us.

00:45:10What does that have to do with me?

00:45:11But Miss Wright, she's...

00:45:12There's nothing between us.

00:45:13There is nothing between us.

00:45:15What are you standing there for?

00:45:17Got nothing better to do?

00:45:18Get out!

00:45:19Was your hand badly hurt?

00:45:20The stitches are out already.

00:45:22I'm fine.

00:45:23Why is Louisa targeting you?

00:45:24Does Julian have a crush on you?

00:45:28It's not that dramatic.

00:45:29On the day of their meeting,

00:45:30it rained heavily.

00:45:32What gives you and Louisa the right to bully Catherine?

00:45:37A victim who attacks people with a fork

00:45:39and knocks someone flying with one kick?

00:45:42How very novel.

00:45:43Why don't you ask what Louisa did first?

00:45:49Catherine cut her finger on a blade

00:45:50hidden in the piano keys

00:45:52and required several stitches.

00:45:53The truth began to surface

00:45:54during the dinner between Julian and Lila.

00:45:56When did this happen?

00:45:57After you left,

00:45:58the razor blade was hidden inside the new sheet music.

00:46:01I handed the matter of last week's banquet

00:46:03over to the police.

00:46:04I have no idea what you're talking about.

00:46:06Police visit late at night.

00:46:08What trouble have you got yourself into this time?

00:46:10Leave me alone!

00:46:11Do whatever it takes to fix this!

00:46:13Is this about Catherine?

00:46:15Has he lost his mind defending her like this?

00:46:17He doesn't love you.

00:46:19Mrs. Catherine takes on jobs in three fields

00:46:20at the same time.

00:46:21Design, music, and translation.

00:46:22Her annual income is quite significant

00:46:24as she earns between $50,000 and $200,000 per performance.

00:46:27One more thing.

00:46:27The card you gave her was recently charged overseas

00:46:29for over $3 million.

00:46:30What did she buy?

00:46:31I'm a clarin.

00:46:32Call Catherine and tell her to come back.

00:46:34The madam might be busy.

00:46:36Would you like to call her personally?

00:46:38You call her.

00:46:38Without a word,

00:46:39Julian passed her his phone.

00:46:41Still no answer.

00:46:42Call again.

00:46:43Sir, it seems she has blocked you.

00:46:46I blocked him.

00:46:48He looked very angry.

00:46:52I loathed going back to that so-called home

00:46:54and unexpectedly ran into him.

00:46:57I just came back to get something.

00:46:59I'll leave right away.

00:47:00Catherine, let's talk.

00:47:03There's nothing to talk about.

00:47:07Louisa started it.

00:47:08You didn't explain it properly at all.

00:47:11So you've figured it all out now?

00:47:13I've already warned her.

00:47:15Your card was taken by Aline.

00:47:17Why didn't you tell me?

00:47:18Some things are pointless to say.

00:47:20Can't you just talk sense?

00:47:21I'm only talking to you the way you deserve.

00:47:23Then we'll talk in the study.

00:47:24Is this how a man should act?

00:47:26Let go of me!

00:47:27Have you lost your mind?

00:47:31Later, Julian went to the hospital.

00:47:33When Kacen brought the necklace he prepared for me,

00:47:35he gave it to Kacen in anger.

00:47:37It's yours now.

00:47:38Isn't this necklace for madam?

00:47:39It would be a waste to give it to her.

00:47:42Shall we head home, Mr. Julian?

00:47:45To the company.

00:47:49I ran into Ernest unexpectedly at the hospital,

00:47:51and he apologized for Louisa's behavior at the party.

00:47:55Don't you lay a finger on Catherine.

00:47:58Julian, you are overthinking.

00:48:00I simply ran into Miss Clark and had a few words with her.

00:48:03What?

00:48:04Have you taken a fancy to married women now?

00:48:07Catherine will never get a divorce.

00:48:08Don't waste your time.

00:48:09How dare you fool around with another man right outside the hospital?

00:48:12What exactly are you back for?

00:48:14For your dignity or for your eyesight?

00:48:16What are you scheming with the rights,

00:48:17and why do you need Ernest's personal business card?

00:48:19Is accepting a business card can come flirting?

00:48:22Am I to be suspected even for just talking to someone?

00:48:27Hello?

00:48:27I'm at the lounge.

00:48:29Could you send someone to pick me up?

00:48:30It's near the hotel.

00:48:32Stay right there.

00:48:32I'm on my way.

00:48:33One more round!

00:48:35Bring it on!

00:48:37Who are you?

00:48:40It's time to go back to the hotel.

00:48:42Are you with the hotel?

00:48:43No, but I've spoken with the front desk.

00:48:45Just come with me.

00:48:46Who exactly are you?

00:48:47Mr. A.

00:48:52What?

00:48:54What are you doing?

00:48:55You are Julian Nash's wife, so I can't show my face.

00:48:59Don't mention him in front of me.

00:49:00He blindfolded me with his tie and held me.

00:49:03Nervous at first, I forced myself to relax.

00:49:05So nervous?

00:49:06Don't you like this?

00:49:07No.

00:49:09Not getting along with Julian Nash?

00:49:11Don't mention him again.

00:49:13In the car, he asked about Julian again, and I didn't want to talk about it.

00:49:18Later, in the dark hotel room, he suddenly kissed me, and I couldn't resist at all.

00:49:24Out of breath already?

00:49:26Not used to kissing?

00:49:29Don't.

00:49:30We shouldn't be this intimate.

00:49:32Really?

00:49:32Then what exactly are we to each other?

00:49:35Pretending to be Mr. A to cheat on myself?

00:49:37That's completely crazy.

00:49:45What happened last night?

00:49:49Waking up, everything felt like a dream, but my body remembers every moment.

00:49:59One month, he thinks I can be bought.

00:50:04Let me introduce Mr. Nash, CEO of Nash Group.

00:50:10We've never met.

00:50:12A pleasure, Mr. Nash.

00:50:15In that moment, time stood still.

00:50:18It was him.

00:50:19Mr. A, we had to pretend we'd never met.

00:50:22This city is full of women like you, Ms. Clark.

00:50:27Professional, elegant, and available for the right price.

00:50:32The contract terms are standard, Mr. Nash.

00:50:35Every word was a dagger from last night.

00:50:37I had to stay calm.

00:50:39Couldn't let him see me waver.

00:50:41Have dinner with me.

00:50:42I don't think that's appropriate.

00:50:46You already spent last night with your husband.

00:50:49One dinner.

00:50:50That's all I'm asking.

00:50:58Tonight, everything is under control.

00:51:03She thinks she's the hunter.

00:51:05Little does she know, the prey has its eyes on her.

00:51:09Well, well.

00:51:10Look who decided to show up.

00:51:13Words are the finest weapons, and I never miss my mark.

00:51:18Julian mentioned you'd be difficult.

00:51:20I can see why he prefers my company.

00:51:23Does he?

00:51:24Or is it that you're simply available?

00:51:26You think you're so clever?

00:51:27No, Louisa, I don't think.

00:51:29I know.

00:51:30And that's the difference between us.

00:51:32I'm his wife.

00:51:33You're just a distraction.

00:51:40I thought the battlefield was settled.

00:51:42I was wrong.

00:51:43The real fight was just beginning.

00:51:48Did you enjoy your little game?

00:51:51His kiss wasn't love.

00:51:52It was a mark, a possession, a vengeance.

00:51:57You're mine, Catherine.

00:51:59Never forget that.

00:52:03A thinks he's won.

00:52:04But he doesn't know my counterattack has just begun.

00:52:07Remember your place, darling.

00:52:34Or should my dad come fetch you himself?

00:52:37Your call.

00:52:38His threat weighs like a stone on my heart.

00:52:44You don't like it?

00:52:46This is all for appearances.

00:52:48Why go to all that trouble?

00:52:49It's not for show.

00:52:50I picked it out for you.

00:52:52Is your office running late tonight?

00:52:54Nash Group doesn't believe in overtime.

00:52:56Right.

00:52:57His message isn't from the person I texted.

00:53:00Let's talk later.

00:53:02Let's not keep Lawrence waiting.

00:53:03We should go.

00:53:05We're here.

00:53:08This bracelet is a hollow gesture.

00:53:10I'd prefer something simpler.

00:53:12Absolutely not.

00:53:13You give me a grand grand sub, Julian, and I'll never meddle in your personal matters again.

00:53:16You made the exact same promise when you forced me into marriage.

00:53:19Did you really think I'd fall for it twice?

00:53:21His silence is a volcano about to erupt.

00:53:24I don't want her around.

00:53:26What's your problem?

00:53:27Was it necessary to screech chair across the floor?

00:53:33That's a lie!

00:53:34When did I ever say that?

00:53:35You're twisting everything!

00:53:37Still denying it?

00:53:38Look at the way you're acting.

00:53:39All right, enough of this.

00:53:40You're an adult now.

00:53:41You can't crumble over every little thing.

00:53:43Camille, is that what Elish told you?

00:53:44Because I remember it very differently.

00:53:46Elish, you practically stole that card from me,

00:53:47insisting I wasn't worthy of Julian or the Nash family's resources.

00:53:50What are you saying?

00:53:51You never asked.

00:53:52I never asked?

00:53:53That card carried six million a year.

00:53:55You took it without saying a word?

00:53:57You did, but I thought...

00:53:59Six million a year, not even twenty over three.

00:54:01If Catherine wants it back, I'll wire it to her.

00:54:03If paying back stolen funds solved everything,

00:54:05there'd be no need for law enforcement.

00:54:07Stolen?

00:54:08That's a bit much, don't you think?

00:54:10Return the money you took.

00:54:11Double the amount.

00:54:12Starting now, I'll handle your allowance.

00:54:14Ten thousand per month, for the next three years.

00:54:17Only ten thousand?

00:54:18Wasn't it your mother who said you were too young to need that kind of money?

00:54:22His decision surprises me.

00:54:24Kath, it's getting late.

00:54:26You and Julia should spend the night here and join me for breakfast tomorrow.

00:54:31All right, Lawrence.

00:54:33Come, Eloise. Let's go upstairs.

00:54:36Next time something happens, come to me directly.

00:54:39Don't stir up trouble that can be avoided.

00:54:42Hmm.

00:54:44Pick a room for the night. I'll have someone prepare it.

00:54:48Who is he?

00:54:49Why does he always appear when I need him?

00:54:56The tension between Julian and his father was thick enough to choke on.

00:55:00What happened in that room?

00:55:01He stood in the shadows.

00:55:03When I was nice to Camille tonight, it wasn't because I meant it.

00:55:07I just wanted to get under Alacia's skin.

00:55:09Why are you justifying yourself to me?

00:55:12If they don't have it in this city, go find it in another one.

00:55:15Do I have to spell everything out for you?

00:55:17They're hard to get, actually.

00:55:19They're custom-made Alba Custom Fragrances.

00:55:25Julian, there's no extra blanket here.

00:55:27If you're that cold, come share it.

00:55:29The bed had only one blanket, and Julian was already lying there, expecting me to share it.

00:55:34Frustrated, I kicked the bed.

00:55:35A mistake. Instant toe pain.

00:55:38Catherine, remind me.

00:55:40How old are you again?

00:55:47Mr. Nash said to make sure you both drink it.

00:55:49I have to report back once it's done.

00:55:53Julian, get up.

00:55:55You need to drink the soup.

00:56:03Before I could react, he pulled me into his arms and forced the soup into my mouth through a kiss.

00:56:12After changing into our pajamas, I slammed my foot down on his with a fury that made the floorboards rattle,

00:56:17but he didn't even flinch.

00:56:19That stuff must work quick. Look at you. Suddenly full of energy.

00:56:24In the dark, I heard muffled, breathing, strange, restrained sounds. My mind lit up with images I shouldn't be thinking

00:56:31about.

00:56:32I woke up to find myself collapsed right on top of him. Worse, my hand had connected with his face,

00:56:37and then his most sensitive area.

00:56:39I didn't mean to. I'm really sorry. When I sleep, I clutch onto a pillow. I guess I thought you

00:56:45were one.

00:56:46He claimed the bed was too flimsy for intimacy. I blushed in utter mortification.

00:56:50Didn't get much sleep, did you? What's going on with you?

00:56:53The bed in my room is too flimsy for certain activities. We moved to the balcony. Guess the cold wind

00:56:57got me sick.

00:57:01Inside the car, Julian coldly asked me why I was so kind to his father.

00:57:06Then told him the truth.

00:57:08What did my dad give you to make you treat him so kindly?

00:57:12When debt collectors came and forced me to sell myself, it was your father who stepped in.

00:57:18He gave me the money to fix everything.

00:57:21He checked the sum his father had given me. 800,000. His expression was unreadable.

00:57:26Only 800,000?

00:57:32Oh, absolutely. Mr. Nash is wonderful to work with. We've even become friends over the course of our collaboration.

00:57:38Since you two are friends now, Mr. Dupont, there's something I think you should know.

00:57:42Your temporary interpreter, Ms. Clark, she doesn't even hold a real translation certification.

00:57:47Is that really the case?

00:57:48I'd be more than happy to help you arrange that, free of charge.

00:57:52One more thing, Ms. Wright. It's never a good idea to badmuth people when they're not around.

00:57:59Julian, I hate to bother you, but Elise has been really upset lately.

00:58:03She keeps coming to me in tears, and I can't just stand by, so I had to come come talk

00:58:06to you about it.

00:58:07Let her cry all she wants. Don't give her a single cent. Understood?

00:58:11Mr. Nash, it seems you're lucky to have Ms. Wright's expert hands.

00:58:15Sounds like he's envious. Why don't you give him one later?

00:58:17I wouldn't even think of it.

00:58:46Julian, what's caught your eye?

00:58:49Something R-80.

00:58:55What hotel are we heading to?

00:58:57Riverpoint Hotel.

00:58:59That's a pretty low-tier pick.

00:59:03Doesn't look like he's investing much in you.

00:59:11The room was dark, and so was my heart.

00:59:13I knew he was on his way.

00:59:15I knew I shouldn't expect anything, but that familiar feeling, it wouldn't fade.

00:59:23Seriously? Don't bring him up right now. You're killing the moment.

00:59:28Then why don't you pretend I'm him? Doesn't bother me. Treat me as your husband.

00:59:33Just, for a moment, you sounded exactly like my jerk husband.

00:59:38Still haunted by him, huh?

00:59:51Again.

00:59:52Every time I wake up, he's gone.

00:59:55I bit him.

00:59:56If he's Julian, there should be marks.

00:59:57I have to know.

01:00:05You actually seem more energized the more you work.

01:00:08I had a little too much last night.

01:00:10Got all this energy to burn.

01:00:12Nested that, too.

01:00:13Gotta let it out somehow.

01:00:15Oh, no. I'm so sorry. I didn't mean to.

01:00:18Good thing I brought you a new shirt.

01:00:20Go change quickly.

01:00:24Your shirt is $6.99.

01:00:26You owe me that much.

01:00:28Catherine said Julian owed her for the shirt.

01:00:30He gave her $80,000 without a glance.

01:00:32I'll drive you back.

01:00:33Julian drives the exhausted Catherine home.

01:00:36At home, Julian carried the sleeping Catherine to her bed.

01:00:39But she wouldn't let go of his arm.

01:00:40Let go.

01:00:41She didn't.

01:00:42So he shoved an ugly turtle plush into her arms and left.

01:00:46Under the pillow, he found their marriage certificate.

01:00:49His name was blacked out with angry marker strokes.

01:00:52The corners were frayed.

01:00:53She'd held it too many times.

01:00:55What are you filming?

01:00:55Mr. Nash, I just think it's so nice to have the madam back.

01:00:58I saw you holding your wife.

01:00:59It was so sweet.

01:01:00I couldn't help myself.

01:01:01He finally came to his senses.

01:01:03Looks like my efforts weren't in vain.

01:01:05Can I post this on social media?

01:01:08That's for Julian.

01:01:10Can you not eat it all?

01:01:11Don't push your luck.

01:01:12He throws away everything you give him without even looking at it.

01:01:14What exactly are you trying to say?

01:01:16Are you still going to send it?

01:01:18What role do you think you play in their story?

01:01:23You've got some nerve cheating on someone who belongs to Lila.

01:01:26You just said you'd do anything, right?

01:01:28Mm-hmm.

01:01:29Because right now, LS, I have an idea.

01:01:36I've thought of a way to finally get back at her.

01:01:40I'm listening.

01:01:42Okay.

01:01:45See that?

01:01:46Perfect ammunition.

01:01:49Recording.

01:01:50Got it.

01:01:51You're brilliant!

01:01:52One video takes down both of them!

01:01:54As long as you're pleased, just don't go too far.

01:02:00Insurance.

01:02:01For later.

01:02:02I don't want to leave you, Pearson.

01:02:03When will I see you again?

01:02:05Lila's going on a trip next week.

01:02:07Then I'm all yours, babe.

01:02:08Pearson looked quite pleased with himself.

01:02:10But as soon as her car drove away, he turned around and froze.

01:02:13Bold of you, carrying on in public like this.

01:02:16What?

01:02:17What do you want?

01:02:20Something feels off.

01:02:21Mr. Nash must really adore you.

01:02:23These are all top tier.

01:02:24Since when does Julian buy me gifts like this?

01:02:27Who else do you think I bought them for?

01:02:29Louisa Wright, of course.

01:02:30Those dresses were made for flat chests.

01:02:32She wouldn't fit even if she tried.

01:02:35Up for it?

01:02:36I want to see your face.

01:02:39Knowing too much could be dangerous.

01:02:40The food's for you.

01:02:42Go ahead.

01:02:42Thanks.

01:02:43I'll wait.

01:02:44Let's eat together.

01:02:45I've already eaten.

01:02:46You remind me of my husband.

01:02:48Then why not just turn on the light and take a look?

01:02:51I think it's better if we stick to the rules.

01:02:54Why do you love him so much?

01:02:56You talk too much.

01:02:58You're sensitive everywhere, huh?

01:03:02He's allergic to cream.

01:03:04But this man doesn't care.

01:03:06You...

01:03:07Are you planning to eat all of it with your mouth?

01:03:09Of course.

01:03:10Then...

01:03:12Maybe don't eat too much.

01:03:15Cream's not poison.

01:03:17Why shouldn't I have more?

01:03:18I just can't.

01:03:19I just can't.

01:03:23It's okay.

01:03:24Let it all out.

01:03:26His arms comforted me, but could not heal my heart.

01:03:28I want to stop loving him.

01:03:31Late at night, his call broke the silence.

01:03:34Oh!

01:03:35My heart skipped a beat.

01:03:40Hello?

01:03:41Pyerson?

01:03:42At this hour?

01:03:43What is it?

01:03:44Catherine, I have a favor to ask.

01:03:46Can you design a dress for Lila?

01:03:47It's a surprise.

01:03:50Smells good.

01:03:51You're a great cook.

01:03:52Thanks.

01:03:54I hope you like it.

01:03:55Standing at his door, I knew it was dangerous.

01:03:58Yet I couldn't stay away.

01:04:00Miss Clark, you're even more stunning in person than in the photos.

01:04:04If you're feeling warm, don't hesitate to take off your coat.

01:04:06I...

01:04:07I need to see Lila about the dress.

01:04:11Care to explain what's going on?

01:04:13You really think sitting alone with me in the living room counts as a threat?

01:04:18Alright, alright.

01:04:19Cautious girls are all the rage these days.

01:04:21I'll go grab her.

01:04:22That would be appreciated.

01:04:25Catherine, why were you standing out here?

01:04:28It's freezing.

01:04:29Look at these.

01:04:30They look perfect on you.

01:04:31Thank you, Lila.

01:04:33They're beautiful.

01:04:34Do you mind giving us some space?

01:04:35This is girl time.

01:04:36Why are you even still here?

01:04:37Fine, fine.

01:04:38I'll leave you two to your girl time.

01:04:40So, Catherine, what brings you over today?

01:04:43Really?

01:04:43I just needed to see a friend.

01:04:45But I couldn't stay.

01:04:46Every second in that house felt like suffocation.

01:04:49I needed to escape.

01:04:50Just curious, Miss Clark.

01:04:51Does the surprise I planned for Lila make you feel any pressure?

01:04:54Did I somehow offend you?

01:04:55If something at the last party rubbed you the wrong way, just come out with it.

01:04:57I'll fix it if I can.

01:04:58You mean you can just do a spot the time and then she'll Lila on like she means nothing.

01:05:00Now, what exactly are you getting at?

01:05:02You said you'd make it up to me.

01:05:03In what way?

01:05:03I snapped and pushed him hard.

01:05:05The sound of him hitting the wall felt real and satisfying.

01:05:08You really couldn't wait until tonight, huh, babe?

01:05:10Tell me.

01:05:10When have we ever used this brand?

01:05:12Oh, that?

01:05:12Just a new brand I grabbed.

01:05:13Figured we could mix things up, but looks like you beat me to it.

01:05:15Funny.

01:05:16You took your sweet time walking Catherine out.

01:05:17What held you up?

01:05:18I know you look up to Catherine's talent, Lila.

01:05:19Maybe it's best you keep a bit of space from her.

01:05:21Lila wasn't blind.

01:05:22She was seeing through the lies.

01:05:23That small piece of evidence would crack everything apart.

01:05:26If something's wrong, you can lean on me.

01:05:30I'm fine.

01:05:32Nothing happened.

01:05:37Why are her hands so red?

01:05:39What did she touch?

01:05:40Pearson?

01:05:40She knows it's a trap, yet she goes.

01:05:43You're going to want to hear this.

01:05:44Get to the point.

01:05:45I dropped by the club where Pearson Hammond used to work.

01:05:47Guess who I ran into?

01:05:47Mrs. Nash.

01:05:48What the hell was she doing there?

01:05:49She booked a few of their top-est orders and reserved the VIP suite.

01:05:52Quite the experience.

01:05:53Give me your measurements.

01:05:55Five inches.

01:05:57Five inched?

01:05:58Six and a half.

01:06:00Four inches.

01:06:01Four and a half.

01:06:02You.

01:06:03Name your price.

01:06:04Five thousand deposit.

01:06:06Balance on completion.

01:06:07Full payment upon satisfaction.

01:06:10Deal.

01:06:11Bates' wheel stops at my feet.

01:06:16Mrs. Nash.

01:06:17Fancy meeting you.

01:06:18Need a ride?

01:06:19No, thanks.

01:06:20Are you sure?

01:06:21His presence cuts like ice.

01:06:23If he can't change your mind, what about me?

01:06:27How did you track me down?

01:06:29Get in the car.

01:06:31Didn't take you for someone with such stamina.

01:06:33Four men in one night?

01:06:34Are you spying on me?

01:06:35Are you cheating on me?

01:06:36The wrong idea.

01:06:37Mr. Nash and I just wrapped up a meeting nearby.

01:06:39Total coincidence running into you.

01:06:40Impressive.

01:06:40The Nash family really is expanding into every imaginable sector, isn't it?

01:06:44Good.

01:06:45You asked for this.

01:06:47Some truths hide in silence.

01:06:52The rules were set by you.

01:06:55That's right.

01:06:56Just closed the deal.

01:06:57I own it now.

01:06:59You?

01:07:00Bought that nightclub?

01:07:01Why would you do that?

01:07:02I got bored.

01:07:03Decided to expand into something new.

01:07:05No big deal.

01:07:06We agreed to keep our personal lives separate.

01:07:08Did I stop you?

01:07:09He always makes it sound so reasonable.

01:07:14Relax.

01:07:14I'll delete the video.

01:07:17How thoughtful of you.

01:07:19You're welcome.

01:07:21And if your dad asks where I am?

01:07:23I'll tell him the truth.

01:07:25Booking four male escorts.

01:07:27I wasn't hiring them for myself.

01:07:30Then explain that to my dad.

01:07:35Okay.

01:07:36We'll go there.

01:07:37You could have at least asked me first.

01:07:39Then don't come.

01:07:40I'll go alone.

01:07:46Tough day at work, sweetheart.

01:07:48She's just tired.

01:07:49From the bedroom gymnastics.

01:07:51I nearly choked on my own breath.

01:07:53Dad.

01:07:53Heard of the nightclub?

01:07:55On Hillside Road?

01:07:58The gigolos were too noisy.

01:08:00You don't need to tell me about every little business purchase.

01:08:03That rare winter storm seemed to be.

01:08:06Thunder jolted me away.

01:08:08And I instinctively reached for comfort.

01:08:10I realized that no matter how much he torments me,

01:08:12I still depend on him.

01:08:14It's our curse.

01:08:14What's wrong?

01:08:15And also our salvation.

01:08:19It's only thunder.

01:08:22Why are you leaving?

01:08:24I won't leave.

01:08:30Sorry.

01:08:31I had a nightmare.

01:08:33The thunder scared me and I...

01:08:34lost my senses for a bit.

01:08:37And then what?

01:08:38Pretend none of it happened?

01:08:40I don't know.

01:08:45The housekeeper said you've been practicing piano at a studio.

01:08:49Yeah.

01:08:49Then stay home and play a few pieces for me today.

01:08:52But there's no piano at home.

01:08:54I'll have one sent over now.

01:08:56Is piano business really on standby all night?

01:08:58It's dawn and everyone should be asleep.

01:09:01Yet you made one call and this arrived like magic.

01:09:03VIPs don't just get round-the-clock service.

01:09:05They're treated like royalty.

01:09:06They call to ask about our schedules.

01:09:08So are you impressed by my wealth or annoyed I ruined someone's sleep?

01:09:11Both.

01:09:11So you pay to practice at a piano studio?

01:09:13I do.

01:09:14Lila claims you're nearly a master, but you're still in training?

01:09:16I'm still a beginner.

01:09:17Others are way ahead, like standing on top of a skyscraper while I'm still climbing floor by floor.

01:09:21Do you like it?

01:09:21I do.

01:09:22Then stop going to piano studio to practice.

01:09:23From now on, do it here.

01:09:24I'll arrange a tutor.

01:09:29I'm done practicing.

01:09:31Have you finished work?

01:09:32There's always something else that needs handling.

01:09:34You've changed lately.

01:09:36You're being unusually kind.

01:09:37What's going on?

01:09:41I thought it was just a simple light.

01:09:46Want to give it a shot?

01:09:53Easy now.

01:09:54You're supposed to take a puff, not swallow it whole.

01:10:00I didn't expect him to kiss me.

01:10:02And I didn't expect this kiss to make me forget to breathe.

01:10:06Breakfast is ready?

01:10:08Oh my.

01:10:10It's not what it looks like.

01:10:18Maybe our turn's coming sooner than you think.

01:10:27I tried not to think about him.

01:10:29But that kiss, that touch, still lingers on my lips.

01:10:37Julian handled my father, protected me, paid me well.

01:10:40Have you ever chased after someone before?

01:10:42Back in high school, I had a thing for this popular guy.

01:10:45Chased him around for a bit.

01:10:46But once he turned me down, I lost interest fast.

01:10:49What if someone you once liked suddenly came back, hiding behind a fake identity, and somehow you ended up in

01:10:54bed with him?

01:10:55How would you face him after that without feeling humiliated?

01:10:59Oh, honey, you definitely to the right person.

01:11:01If that were me, I wouldn't say a thing.

01:11:04I'd keep up the act and enjoy the sex until I got bored with it.

01:11:13Finally found time in your busy schedule?

01:11:16Tried a new recipe.

01:11:17Want to taste it?

01:11:19Cream recalled Mr. A.

01:11:21Julian's allergy rules him out.

01:11:24What's with the sudden kindness?

01:11:25No drugs in it.

01:11:27You bought me that piano.

01:11:29Consider this a thank you.

01:11:32That wasn't real cream.

01:11:33No reason to take meds.

01:11:35Seriously?

01:11:36Why didn't you take any medicine?

01:11:37How did you know?

01:11:38Because you wouldn't risk it.

01:11:39You wouldn't use real cream.

01:11:41Not on me.

01:11:41You wouldn't let me suffer.

01:11:42Even if you're testing me, you couldn't bear it.

01:11:49Who said I was testing you?

01:11:52His name lit up the screen.

01:11:54My heart skipped a beat.

01:11:55The nightmare was far from over.

01:11:57Kathy, how's my surprise coming along?

01:12:00Let's talk over dinner.

01:12:02I'll swing by around 11.

01:12:04Yet I had to stay strong.

01:12:05Sure.

01:12:06Just send me the restaurant address.

01:12:08I'll meet you there.

01:12:10What I didn't know was, at this very moment, he was silently watching my every move.

01:12:16Sir, are you sure it's a good idea to let Mrs. Nash deal with that man on her own?

01:12:19She kicked me in the shin once so hard I limped for a week.

01:12:24Trust me, dealing with a gigolo like Pearson Lewis is nothing she can't handle.

01:12:28Sir, Mrs. Nash is brilliant.

01:12:30When Pearson tried to hold her hand, she tore off the tablecloth.

01:12:32A candle nearly burned him.

01:12:34She pretended to panic, stomping it out while apologizing politely.

01:12:37That was the first time I saw such a genuine smile on him.

01:12:40But that smile pierced another woman's heart.

01:12:43In the late night hospital room, I held my brother's clean underwear, only to let him see what I'd hidden

01:12:48most.

01:12:48Why are you here?

01:12:49Sir, you're the one taking care of this?

01:12:51There's a caregiver for him, isn't there?

01:12:53She's off duty right now.

01:12:54I came by to visit and saw he'd wet himself, so I didn't want him catching a chair.

01:12:58Please, have a seat.

01:13:00They don't need to do that.

01:13:02That won't be necessary.

01:13:03I'm taking Catherine home.

01:13:04Yes, of course.

01:13:05Go on, Cathy.

01:13:07As I sat in Julian's car, my phone kept buzzing.

01:13:11Messages from my stepmother were always like this sweet yet stabbing,

01:13:14each one a reminder of how much I owed her.

01:13:17And him, his care was always like this, hidden beneath cold words.

01:13:22Thanks for coming to get me tonight.

01:13:24Didn't want you to reflect badly on me.

01:13:26Those marks.

01:13:27What are they from?

01:13:28Wild night.

01:13:29A woman left them there.

01:13:30W-which woman?

01:13:34I thought I was playing him, but little did I know, I was the one walking into his trap.

01:13:39Wait!

01:13:39I'm not ready!

01:13:40Let's talk!

01:13:54His strength far exceeded my imagination.

01:13:59Next time, I'll let you see my face.

01:14:04After it was over, he said something that completely threw me off.

01:14:08Meanwhile, an evil alliance plotted a greater betrayal.

01:14:12Screw this up, and I'll forward those photos to Lila.

01:14:14You're just a parasite!

01:14:16You've got cash.

01:14:17Maybe you should fund my lifestyle.

01:14:24Bring the dress to my studio.

01:14:25It's in a hotel.

01:14:28This time, I brought backup.

01:14:30Pearson, your nightmare has only just begun.

01:14:34He thought he'd won, but little did he know my backup had arrived.

01:14:37Perfect.

01:14:41And who might you be?

01:14:44I'm here for the dress fitting.

01:14:46Please, come in.

01:14:47While he was busy lost in lust, I was busy collecting every piece of evidence against him.

01:14:53Pearson, this game I won.

01:14:56Thought I was a helpless lamb?

01:14:58No, I'm a hunter in sheep's clothing.

01:15:01Pearson, your karma has arrived.

01:15:05That condescending smile showed me his true colors.

01:15:07He wanted to use my reputation to satisfy his twisted desires.

01:15:11I like you.

01:15:12I want to sleep with you.

01:15:14Clear enough?

01:15:15Hidden camera.

01:15:16Force me, film it, then spread it.

01:15:19Sharp.

01:15:20Scared to be seen as a slut.

01:15:21And what about Lila?

01:15:22Going to throw away your golden ticket for this?

01:15:26I'll say you drugged me.

01:15:27She's so in love with me, she'll believe whatever I say.

01:15:32I had just left the battlefield, but another hunter was already waiting.

01:15:35She thought she had dirt on me, but she didn't know she was walking into another trap.

01:15:39Caught you!

01:15:40Julian!

01:15:41Catherine's in bed with a man right now!

01:15:43Didn't learn your lesson?

01:15:44Want another?

01:15:47Yes.

01:15:47Take a look.

01:15:48Isn't this your wife?

01:15:51This photo doesn't feel right.

01:15:56Let's go check it out.

01:15:57Eloise followed me for a month, waiting for this moment she thought she had dirt on me,

01:16:01but walked right into my trap.

01:16:03Miss Grant!

01:16:03What are you doing here?

01:16:05Meeting my boyfriend.

01:16:05What about you?

01:16:06Catherine's with a man in this room.

01:16:08Who's stake in you or us?

01:16:09Seems like your show.

01:16:10Go on, Mr. Nash.

01:16:12Ladies first.

01:16:12The door opened, and everyone saw the mess inside, yet truth often hides in the most

01:16:17unexpected places.

01:16:19Too intense.

01:16:20Julian, better not look.

01:16:21Still hiding?

01:16:22Let's see.

01:16:26I never would have thought that even Eloise, who is usually outspoken, was completely stunned

01:16:30by this sudden shock.

01:16:32And you are?

01:16:35Why should I explain myself?

01:16:36Did you ask before barging into my private space?

01:16:39Where's Catherine?

01:16:40What's going on?

01:16:40Catherine?

01:16:41Never heard the name.

01:16:42I can tell that this man has just finished a private meeting and is about to tidy his

01:16:46appearance.

01:16:47He immediately remembered that this person was a former colleague he had met at the nightclub,

01:16:50who had been a dancer, homosexual, and had even dressed as a woman.

01:16:54No!

01:16:55No!

01:16:56Leela!

01:16:57Wait!

01:16:57Darling, don't go!

01:16:58Call a doctor!

01:17:01Of course it's you.

01:17:02No one else but Eloise would go to such lengths.

01:17:08I captured something entertaining.

01:17:10Just editing the video now.

01:17:12What video, bitch?

01:17:13Give me the name of whoever set this up, and this video disappears.

01:17:18I'll tell you everything!

01:17:19Messing with you is the fun part.

01:17:21I already know who's behind it.

01:17:23Feeling that pounding in your chest, Eloane?

01:17:27Is that right?

01:17:28People who live off cheeks rarely get a happy ending.

01:17:34Who's good here?

01:17:37Your Christmas present is ready.

01:17:39Would you like it sent to your place tomorrow?

01:17:41Who made it?

01:17:42I did.

01:17:45Lena, it was always real between us.

01:17:48Catherine did this.

01:17:49She's obsessed.

01:17:53You weren't nearly this loud the last time we met.

01:17:57And now you're blaming your disgrace on Catherine?

01:18:01But you did cross Catherine.

01:18:06She belongs to you.

01:18:08She's mine.

01:18:11Julian's statement had barely settled.

01:18:13When Louisa's complexion turned ghostly,

01:18:15Lila's gaze turned toward me.

01:18:17She wore that familiar, cunning smile.

01:18:18Get out of here!

01:18:19Feeling overwhelmed by guilt,

01:18:21Eloise tried to sneak away quietly.

01:18:23But Julian wasn't done with her yet.

01:18:26Miss Nash, your brother instructed me to take you home safely.

01:18:29I'm not going back!

01:18:30Let me out right now!

01:18:32She thought of Lawrence's rage,

01:18:33screaming and kicking.

01:18:34The driver relayed Julian's orders,

01:18:36polite yet firm.

01:18:37He said if you refuse to cooperate.

01:18:39Once Pearson confesses everything,

01:18:41the police will happily give you your own self.

01:18:44The driver stayed calm,

01:18:45issuing a final warning.

01:18:47Fear surged through her veins

01:18:48as she realized someone must have ticked off.

01:18:50Outside, the city blurred her freedom, slipping away.

01:18:54Mr. Nash, we've arrived.

01:18:56Miss Nash is in the back seat.

01:18:57Eloise was helped out of the car.

01:18:58By the driver and staggered, too.

01:19:00Toward the entrance of the manor.

01:19:02Her legs went weak,

01:19:03and she could barely stand.

01:19:04Julian, please.

01:19:06She glanced back,

01:19:07eyes despairing at her lost freedom.

01:19:09Eloise tried to flee,

01:19:10but the driver stopped her.

01:19:12The gate slammed shut,

01:19:13crushing her last hope.

01:19:18I'm her man.

01:19:20Did he really say that?

01:19:22You're staring like you're about to leap into my lap.

01:19:25When your sister burst in trying to expose me,

01:19:27your reaction was just...

01:19:29off.

01:19:29Why?

01:19:31I figured some of it out beforehand.

01:19:33Wait.

01:19:33How could you have possibly known?

01:19:35You really thought I bought that dump of a nightclub

01:19:38for my own entertainment?

01:19:39Feeling smug after shutting a lease down like that?

01:19:42Honestly?

01:19:43Yeah.

01:19:44Then come upstairs and cook something.

01:19:46We should toast your little victory.

01:19:48Come on.

01:19:48Just a bit more space.

01:19:50One last box.

01:19:51I promise.

01:19:53What the hell are you doing?

01:19:55I didn't do anything.

01:19:57Seems the blade found its seat.

01:19:59You've put in a lot of effort.

01:20:01Swing by my assistant's office before you head out.

01:20:03There's a bonus waiting for you.

01:20:04I'm running the serve.

01:20:05I've fueled a dessert.

01:20:10It was too rich.

01:20:13Have you eaten yet, Casey?

01:20:15Do you want to turn my office into a cafe?

01:20:21What do you want?

01:20:22No.

01:20:23I only wanted to be sure Aline was okay.

01:20:25According to her,

01:20:26you were the one who came up with the plan

01:20:27to have Pearson set Catherine up.

01:20:30Let me show you something.

01:20:32You'll see what really happened.

01:20:34You kept that recording, huh?

01:20:35Was it only meant for today

01:20:37or did you always intend to wield it against a leash?

01:20:39Julian, I swear,

01:20:40I wasn't trying to hurt her.

01:20:41I only saved that recording to protect myself.

01:20:43It wasn't meant for-

01:20:44Cut the act.

01:20:44You and I both know exactly what games you're playing.

01:20:47Julian,

01:20:47I didn't mean I'm sorry.

01:20:49You can keep that apology.

01:20:51Give it to Elise.

01:21:04Mrs. Nash prepared it herself.

01:21:19I never thought the sound of my terrible piano playing

01:21:22would be something he'd actually enjoy.

01:21:24But looking at him there,

01:21:25so relaxed in my chaos,

01:21:27I wondered what kind of person finds comfort in discord.

01:21:30Come to me.

01:21:32I have work to finish.

01:21:34If it's important,

01:21:35we'll talk later.

01:21:38Wrapped up your music, Mrs. Nash?

01:21:40Why not sit with Mr. Nash and have some fruit?

01:21:42Why would I care about him?

01:21:44Hold on.

01:21:46He requested for pineapple?

01:21:48Why would a man who can't stand anything sweet and sour

01:21:50suddenly ask for it?

01:21:51When Catherine returned,

01:21:52did she say anything?

01:21:58I'll see you inside.

01:22:04You think this is over?

01:22:06Don't kid yourself.

01:22:08As long as I'm around,

01:22:09you'll never have peace.

01:22:11You and Julian share the same father,

01:22:12but the gap between you two is staggering.

01:22:14You've been used as a tool,

01:22:16left to deal with the fallout,

01:22:17and you still don't see it.

01:22:20Elish, my brother's finally getting a break from work.

01:22:22He's been under so much pressure.

01:22:24I picked up a really nice bottle of wine.

01:22:26When you're feeling better,

01:22:27not bring it over and share a drink with him.

01:22:33Why do you smell like pineapple?

01:22:35Eating a lot of it makes things taste better.

01:22:37Taste better?

01:22:37What things?

01:22:38You'd regret asking.

01:22:39Poop sweet?

01:22:40Wait, oh my god, Julian,

01:22:41don't tell me you've actually tried poop-

01:22:43Louisa dropped by the firm earlier.

01:22:45She was asking about Elena.

01:22:49Julian!

01:22:51His lips were soft against mine,

01:22:53and for a moment,

01:22:54just a moment,

01:22:54I forgot about everything else.

01:22:56But then reality crashed back.

01:22:59Wednesday night,

01:23:00be there,

01:23:01same location.

01:23:02That explanation he gave me,

01:23:03was it really an explanation?

01:23:05The hotel manager will be waiting for you in the lobby.

01:23:08She'll take you upstairs.

01:23:08I'll be up in half an hour.

01:23:23Mr. A asked me to give this to you.

01:23:25If you don't mind,

01:23:26I'll need to cover your eyes

01:23:27before I take you to the room.

01:23:29The soft fabric felt just like Mr. A's blindfold.

01:23:32Blindfolded already?

01:23:35Did Mr. Nash switch rooms this time?

01:23:37Yes.

01:23:38Uh,

01:23:39I mean,

01:23:40who's Mr. Nash?

01:23:48From this moment on,

01:23:50whatever I tell you to do,

01:23:51you do it.

01:23:52No questions.

01:23:54I waited,

01:23:55keeping the blindfold on.

01:23:56Giving him control showed my trust.

01:23:59The sofa relaxed me,

01:24:00but my heart raced.

01:24:10Mr. A?

01:24:14Fear overwhelmed me.

01:24:15As his lips touched my collarbone mole,

01:24:18I felt safe.

01:24:19So,

01:24:20do you know who I am now?

01:24:22Still don't get it?

01:24:23Still don't know who's making you feel like this?

01:24:25You jerk!

01:24:26Tell me,

01:24:28who's the monster to you?

01:24:29Mr. A?

01:24:30Or Julian Nash?

01:24:32Mr. A!

01:24:33Doesn't make a difference.

01:24:46There had been many nights like this.

01:24:49Waiting.

01:24:50No matter how sleepy or exhausted I was.

01:24:55Just for the chance to see him.

01:25:04Julian,

01:25:04wear your coat.

01:25:05You're freezing.

01:25:06Take care of yourself.

01:25:07It's nothing.

01:25:14Do you love her?

01:25:17I'm not into love stories.

01:25:19I've been doing lately,

01:25:20but I can't let her always suffer.

01:25:21Can I?

01:25:22No matter how sorry I was.

01:25:36So this was Mr. A's secret.

01:25:41Mr. Nash is back.

01:25:47Did you have anything to eat yet?

01:25:49Want some coffee?

01:25:50Sure.

01:25:52I didn't want to admit it,

01:25:53but my body remembered.

01:25:55I knew what I wanted,

01:25:56but I was afraid to admit it.

01:25:58He remembered,

01:25:59and I actually felt touched.

01:26:01Happy now?

01:26:02Let me see your neck.

01:26:04I know he hates oranges.

01:26:06Stick out your tongue.

01:26:10It's still daytime,

01:26:12and we're right by the door.

01:26:14The housekeeper hasn't even left yet.

01:26:16He pressed closer,

01:26:17and I had no choice

01:26:18but to surrender in broad daylight.

01:26:20She knows better.

01:26:21She's long gone by now.

01:26:25Okay.

01:26:30The moment his fingertips

01:26:31pressed against my neck,

01:26:33I knew I wouldn't escape unscathed.

01:26:34Good girl.

01:26:38I thought it would escalate,

01:26:39but he only kissed my chin,

01:26:41toying with my shame.

01:26:42Are you kidding me?

01:26:45Why do I have to close my eyes?

01:26:48Just playing around.

01:26:51He turned my shame into a game,

01:26:53kissed me,

01:26:54then I'm out of here,

01:26:55and left me to pick up the pieces.

01:27:02Need a ride?

01:27:02How come he's here?

01:27:03Did he make a special trip to get me?

01:27:05Get in.

01:27:06I'll take you home.

01:27:13He said he needed to go in and buy something.

01:27:15I just waited in the car.

01:27:19He's back,

01:27:20with that box in his hand.

01:27:21Didn't you already grab some at the mall before?

01:27:24Didn't get enough.

01:27:27His hand over mine,

01:27:29warm,

01:27:29safe,

01:27:30like a dream I never want to wake from.

01:27:32Why now?

01:27:33You don't even know how to play.

01:27:35Just to kill time.

01:27:36Just to kill time,

01:27:38he says lightly,

01:27:39but ripples stir in my heart.

01:27:40And the phone rang,

01:27:41interrupting everything.

01:27:43Mr. Nash,

01:27:44it's Louisa's assistant.

01:27:45Something terrible has happened.

01:27:46What's going on?

01:27:47The client made a move on Louisa.

01:27:49He locked her in.

01:27:50Please, Mr. Nash,

01:27:51you have to come quickly.

01:27:52Send me the location.

01:27:53He suddenly got a call,

01:27:55then rushed off.

01:27:56No explanation,

01:27:57no goodbye.

01:28:01Julian?

01:28:02Have your assistant call Ernest.

01:28:05I'm the one who caused this.

01:28:08How much more of a mess

01:28:09are you planning to make?

01:28:21This is it.

01:28:22He said to come pick him up.

01:28:28Cold wind howled outside,

01:28:30drowning out all noise.

01:28:31She knew I would come all along.

01:28:33I couldn't hear what Julian was saying,

01:28:35and honestly,

01:28:36I was relieved.

01:28:36Because if I had heard what he said,

01:28:38I wasn't sure I'd have had strength

01:28:40to stay on my feet.

01:28:41I shouldn't have come.

01:28:45Would you like to call her?

01:28:49Forget it.

01:28:50I should have known someone else

01:28:52had already taken my place.

01:28:54I should have known earlier.

01:28:55It was foolish of me

01:28:57to rush over like that,

01:28:58all because of one brief phone call.

01:29:05Please,

01:29:06pick up the phone.

01:29:11From the moment I saw

01:29:13Louisa and Julian together,

01:29:14I knew my heart was already in tears.

01:29:18Madam!

01:29:20I didn't want anything from him,

01:29:22not even concern.

01:29:31I have a high fever.

01:29:32I don't need you.

01:29:34Gathering my last strength,

01:29:35I shoved him away with both palms.
