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.
00:00:53Then, 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.
00:02:44I'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.
00:03:02After 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.
00:04:18The empty factory after the collapse of our family business.
00:04:20And 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.
00:04:45It's getting late.
00:04:51I won't be going back.
00:04:53I'm divorcing him.
00:04:55Don't give him any excuse to be upset.
00:04:58People 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, Miss 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.
00:07:10I 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, so I gave her a taste of her own medicine.
00:09:04How dare you hurt her?
00:09:08She worked with Lewis Group and trapped me for a $50 million deal.
00:09:13So tell me, Julian, if your wife is worth $50 million, how much is your sister worth?
00:09:27The moment I saw the storm gathering in his eyes, I 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, I wasn't afraid to show my teeth.
00:09:43If you're so innocent, let'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, my hope.
00:10:01The last shred of believing he might ever see me.
00:10:04Julian, I'm to blame.
00:10:07I didn't teach my daughter right.
00:10:09If you're upset, be upset with me.
00:10:12Come upstairs.
00:10:13My dad wants to see you.
00:10:15We're getting divorced.
00:10:16What's the point in pretending anymore?
00:10:19The divorce hasn't been finalized.
00:10:21Whether you really mean it or not, you'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 with 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 and spill everything.
00:10:41It was just one night, right?
00:10:44I got paid, had my fun.
00:10:46No big deal.
00:10:50Congratulations.
00:10:51After three years of abstinence, you finally got laid.
00:10:54He called that nightmare fun, then dragged me to see his father, Lawrence.
00:10:58Well, when are you giving me a grandchild?
00:11:00I won't be around forever.
00:11:04Dad, it's not something we can rush.
00:11:06Three years and still nothing?
00:11:08Julian, just be straight with me.
00:11:09Are you having trouble in that area?
00:11:12I'm 26.
00:11:13Do you seriously think that's a possibility?
00:11:17Kathy, is it true?
00:11:20After three years of his coldness, I saw my chance to strike back.
00:11:24Catherine, you'd better think before you speak.
00:11:28Julian has a few concerns, but I believe he's seeking help.
00:11:34Julian!
00:11:35When the hell did this happen?
00:11:37You were so smart before!
00:11:39You really believe the nonsense that falls out of her mouth?
00:11:42Did you lose your sense?
00:11:43She's your wife!
00:11:45She sleeps beside you every night!
00:11:47If anyone knows your body, it's her!
00:11:52Don't stress, Father.
00:11:53With how far medicine has come, there's nothing that can't be dealt with.
00:11:57But he's only in his 20s.
00:11:59And if it came to that, IVF is a completely normal option now.
00:12:04My nonchalant smile sliced right through his pride.
00:12:08Dad, there is nothing wrong with me.
00:12:12If that's true, show me.
00:12:18Show you?
00:12:20What, am I supposed to get an erection right here in front of you?
00:12:27I want a grandson in my arms before the end of the year!
00:12:31I almost dropped the cup in my hand, frozen in place.
00:12:34Julian saw my shock, but didn't help me at all.
00:12:36Want to prove your innocence?
00:12:38Clean up this mess yourself.
00:12:40Fine.
00:12:41Casey, make me proud.
00:12:43I knew I was cornered no matter what I said,
00:12:45so I just nodded tightly to get through the moment.
00:12:48Lawrence looked relieved and tired,
00:12:50then went back to his room.
00:12:51You care that I've never touched you, don't you?
00:12:54There has been no intimacy between us since we got married,
00:12:57and I'm telling the truth.
00:13:00So you're saying I'm incapable?
00:13:01How would I owe?
00:13:02Why don't you ask your mistress to explain it clearly to your father?
00:13:06Three years.
00:13:07Your mouth has jonly-stirted meek.
00:13:10Deleurin can't yans.
00:13:11Tell him sooner rather than later.
00:13:12You just agreed with your own words.
00:13:14Have seconds now?
00:13:15You're far more skillful at scheming than your mother.
00:13:18You really know how to use yourself to manipulate people.
00:13:22Who decides whether I can get pregnant or not if not you?
00:13:25When have I ever begged you to make me pregnant?
00:13:30Julian, leaving so soon?
00:13:32Elise is badly injured.
00:13:34I just got back from the hospital.
00:13:36Please forgive me for being neglectful.
00:13:37Stay in the hospital and rest properly if she's badly hurt.
00:13:40Stop causing trouble all the time.
00:13:42Okay.
00:13:44I know she never likes me.
00:13:48In her eyes, I had no support,
00:13:50and Julian had turned his back on me.
00:13:52Don't let Julian fool me.
00:13:54Find reliable people to keep an eye on them.
00:13:56I must have a grandson.
00:13:58Understood.
00:14:00I never wanted this marriage to begin with.
00:14:07Lawrence, isn't it too much for us to meddle in such a private matter?
00:14:10I know this isn't exactly above board,
00:14:13but that boy left me no choice.
00:14:15Do as I say.
00:14:17The sooner we settle this, the better.
00:14:19Mom!
00:14:20If that scheming bitch gets pregnant with Julian's child,
00:14:23what will happen to Louisa?
00:14:24She's the one who should marry my brother!
00:14:25You're just using her as an excuse to get close to her brother.
00:14:28Marrying into the right family will benefit you two!
00:14:31Don't worry.
00:14:32Everything is under my control.
00:14:34I never expected my divorce to become so complicated.
00:14:37Ever since I moved into Nash Manor,
00:14:39Austin's health has been deteriorating day by day.
00:14:42I was preparing a nutritious meal for Lawrence when Camille walked in.
00:14:45Mr. Nash is truly fortunate to have a thoughtful wife like you.
00:14:49The elder Mr. Nash said everything is fine.
00:14:52You just need to spend more time building a bond with Mr. Nash.
00:14:56She's a spy Lawrence sent to keep an eye on me.
00:14:59We haven't had a meal together since signing the divorce papers.
00:15:02Just as I was about to make up an excuse, Julian arrived.
00:15:05This is for Lawrence.
00:15:06If you're hungry, ask the nanny to make something for you.
00:15:09Catherine.
00:15:10Do you want some soup?
00:15:11Without waiting for his reply, I poured the soup down the drain.
00:15:15All right.
00:15:16There's nothing left now.
00:15:17Julian looked angry but said nothing.
00:15:19I felt as if I were locked in a cage.
00:15:21I didn't sleep that night and quietly went to the study to talk to him.
00:15:25I can handle your father.
00:15:27But we need a reasonable excuse.
00:15:30Bring your lover back.
00:15:32Say you've fallen for someone else.
00:15:34I'm willing to step aside.
00:15:38So if my dad gets too worked up and something happens to him, it's all on me now?
00:15:44That's a convenient little setup you've got there.
00:15:46He laughed that chilling humorless laugh that sent ice down my spine.
00:15:49Even if you manage to calm him down after telling him the truth, does that mean the drama ends there?
00:15:53Your mom, your brother, your chailed dad, will they all magically disappear from my family's radar?
00:15:57I never dragged you into any of their problems.
00:15:59True, you didn't come asking for handouts.
00:16:01But do you even know what kind of favors she'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 a few bottles delivered.
00:16:19Aren't the two of you heading to bed soon?
00:16:24I thought he married me for love.
00:16:26It was always just a transaction.
00:16:33That business card.
00:16:34That night, that man.
00:16:36I kept it like my last trump card.
00:16:48Sir, I need to tell you something.
00:16:51Go on.
00:16:52Go on.
00:17:00It's about your wife.
00:17:01She messaged me last night.
00:17:05Hi.
00:17:06Are you free to sleep with me?
00:17:10Sir, perhaps someone hacked your wife's number?
00:17:12As a prank to drive a wedge accusations?
00:17:15If it was a hack, the dark circles under your eyes tell me you'd have found the culprit last night.
00:17:19I checked.
00:17:20The message came from inside the villa.
00:17:22Get a new phone later.
00:17:23Charge it to the company.
00:17:25Sir, could she just be venting about that night?
00:17:31Unbelievable.
00:17:32She's scheming to get pregnant on the sly.
00:17:35Get a new SIM card and hand over your current number.
00:17:40Sir, that number is connected to...
00:17:42Now.
00:17:45Got it, sir.
00:17:48And the investigation I ordered?
00:17:49Or are you getting paid a million dollars to cozy up to Eloase?
00:17:53Sir, please.
00:17:54Let me explain.
00:17:57I spent the day trying to see my father, but they wouldn't let me in.
00:18:01When I got home, the housekeeper met me at the door.
00:18:04Mrs. Nash.
00:18:04Mr. Nash asked if you could bring some food to the study.
00:18:07He's still waiting.
00:18:08He didn't touch dinner at all?
00:18:10Only a few sips of soup.
00:18:11He asked where you were.
00:18:16Where's Catherine?
00:18:17She went to the hospital, sir.
00:18:22Mrs. Nash said these were your favorites, so I followed her instructions.
00:18:28She told you that?
00:18:30All my emotions are settling down at this moment.
00:18:37I am not his servant.
00:18:39Not anymore.
00:18:52What on earth are you doing here?
00:18:56This is my house.
00:18:58Why couldn't I be here?
00:19:01We've always kept to separate rooms.
00:19:04What changed tonight?
00:19:07The housekeeper's posted up outside.
00:19:09You can sneak back to your room once she's asleep.
00:19:13Fine.
00:19:14You figure out how to slip away.
00:19:16Before I could reply, he stripped off his shirt.
00:19:19I instinctively pulled the blanket tighter around myself.
00:19:22I'm just going for a shower.
00:19:24What did you think I 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 to know what you're planning?
00:19:30Only if I'd lost my mind would I ever want anything with you.
00:19:34It really does seem like you've lost your grip these days.
00:19:37Want your freedom?
00:19:38Then deal with the housekeeper yourself.
00:19:40As he walked to the bathroom, my eyes landed on the scratch marks on his back.
00:19:44Deep scratches from a woman's nails.
00:19:46You take the bed.
00:19:47I'll handle the housekeeper tomorrow.
00:19:48I've changed the sheets.
00:19:50They're fresh.
00:19:53Didn't the housekeeper pass along my message?
00:19:55The whole table was loaded with food I'm allergic for.
00:19:58I couldn't touch it.
00:19:59What?
00:20:00Didn't she ask about your allergies before she began?
00:20:02His accusation was so heartless.
00:20:04I couldn't speak.
00:20:05Didn't she learn it all from you?
00:20:06Wasn't it your idea?
00:20:07To have her make something I couldn't eat so you could swoop in and save the day?
00:20:11I just spun around and fled the room in tears.
00:20:13I ended up in the kitchen, cooking pasta for him.
00:20:17As my tears fell into the boiling water.
00:20:21What, are we so broke we can't afford salt now?
00:20:23Is that why you're seasoning it like that?
00:20:28Next time, don't cry.
00:20:29You look like a ghost out for revenge.
00:20:34I snatched Julian's phone, put it on speaker.
00:20:37How's your face, Eloise?
00:20:39Still sore?
00:20:41Catherine?
00:20:41What are you doing with my brother's phone?
00:20:43You pushed your way into marrying him.
00:20:45He never sees you as his wife.
00:20:47Julian and I are married.
00:20:48Why wouldn't we be?
00:20:49You've destroyed whatever he had with Louisa.
00:20:51You're disgusting.
00:20:54Of course, it's all me.
00:20:56Every night I threaten him with a knife, just to make him come home.
00:20:59Your father's serving 25 years for first degree murder, isn't he?
00:21:02No, he was framed.
00:21:04I, indeed, offered a guard 200,000 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, warmth stirred in me.
00:21:21Then I saw his mocking smile.
00:21:22This was not kindness, but leverage.
00:21:25Aren't things like this part of being married?
00:21:27I apologized for last night.
00:21:29He stared at me longer 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 anything 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 you need from me, just say it.
00:21:49You grabbed my phone and provoked Elise.
00:21:52What exactly were you planning?
00:21:59That date, that promise, he was using it against me.
00:22:02Then I guess I should go ahead and cancel my plan next Wednesday.
00:22:06Me?
00:22:07Provoking Eloise for some purpose?
00:22:09She came at me first, so I pushed back, that's all.
00:22:12I recorded the call.
00:22:14And you really think someone like her would be shaken by that?
00:22:19I thought about dropping it in your clan's group chat.
00:22:22That clip would have done more damage to you than to her.
00:22:24I made sure you weren't in it.
00:22:26You're still keeping your promise for 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, worthless before him.
00:22:41If it weren't for Catherine pulling the strings with my dad, Julian wouldn't still be trapped in that ridiculous marriage.
00:22:46You don't deserve to be sidelined like this.
00:22:48I really don't mind.
00:22:49Just knowing I hold even a small place in his seant is enough for me.
00:22:53Hey, do you know if Julian's free tonight?
00:22:55I'll ask Kasten.
00:22:56He'll know what Julian's schedule looks like.
00:23:12Sure.
00:23:15Julian, would you like to 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, lit 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.
00:24:00You're always at home, dressed plainly, no makeup.
00:24:02How can you expect Mr. Nash to stay interested?
00:24:04If you look beautiful and confident, he will come running back.
00:24:08But Julian already belongs to someone else.
00:24:11If he's free to enjoy himself out there, why should I be faithful?
00:24:18But cheating outside marriage is just not right.
00:24:21So Julian's actions aren't cheating?
00:24:24Is it because he's a man that it somehow doesn't count?
00:24:29The autumn wind is so cold.
00:24:31But compared to the chill in my heart, this cold is nothing.
00:24:42Is love really that necessary?
00:24:45This someone you mentioned, who 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 as arranging a marriage for him.
00:24:56I saw the dog wandering alone, so I gave him some food.
00:24:58But some dogs just can't be tamed.
00:25:00For my father's visitation rights, I had to bow my head.
00:25:03This isn't surrender, it's strategy.
00:25:05That dog wouldn't happen to go by the name Nash, would 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, it goes wild.
00:25:16That's nonsense.
00:25:23You know what I'm really after.
00:25:30Hey, Dad.
00:25:31What's going on?
00:25:33At that moment, I knew everything was about to change.
00:25:37Let go.
00:25:39Not really, we haven't gone to bed yet.
00:25:42My only real wish now is for a grandchild.
00:25:45She was secretly studying up on the best positions.
00:25:49She's really worked wonders on you.
00:25:52He said I was studying positions, the bastard.
00:25:56This long?
00:25:57My hand touched somewhere I shouldn't have.
00:25:59The size.
00:26:00Impossible.
00:26:01Julian, you might have a medical condition.
00:26:04Maybe some kind of viragous issue?
00:26:07You don't have to sugarcoat it to compliment me.
00:26:10You and I can lead separate personal lives.
00:26:13But I can.
00:26:14If you can promise me he's innocent, changing the outcome is 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 so hard earlier.
00:26:25I'm doing it again, properly this time.
00:26:28This damn marriage.
00:26:30Cason, book a complete medical evaluation for me first thing tomorrow.
00:26:37So it turns out I've hated the wrong person for five years.
00:26:41Five years.
00:26:43He endured so much understanding yet never offered an explanation.
00:26:47Julian, the husband I never gave a second glance.
00:26:49Now I understand what forbearance lay 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 has never felt so vast.
00:27:11So suffocating.
00:27:12Julian, that 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, you look different today.
00:27:23There's light in your eyes.
00:27:25Has something happened?
00:27:29Nothing much.
00:27:30Just figured some things out.
00:27:32In this world, only you truly love me.
00:27:34Austin, dear 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 and 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.
00:27:49I'm going to put it on his wrist tonight.
00:27:51Your allowance seems to multiply rather quickly these days.
00:27:55Who said it's just your allowance?
00:27:56I've been investing with Louisa lately and 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 isn't even your size.
00:28:09It must be for some old man.
00:28:14Ma'am, this sweater will suit your dad perfectly.
00:28:18Let me look at this tie, too.
00:28:23Ma'am, this tie is this year's new style, perfect for your husband.
00:28:30All right, I'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.
00:28:46Catherine?
00:28:47You're waiting for me?
00:28:48Um, this is for you.
00:28:51For me?
00:28:52Why?
00:28:55So, what do you want?
00:28:59It's nothing.
00:29:00I saw a tie today and thought of you.
00:29:03You thought of me.
00:29:05How sweet.
00:29:07Do you like it?
00:29:09You put it on me.
00:29:13I've never learned to tie one properly.
00:29:15Used to insist on doing it.
00:29:17Every single morning.
00:29:19That version of me doesn't exist anymore.
00:29:21I've forgotten.
00:29:24Fine.
00:29:30It's done.
00:29:31Now, my dad's been worried.
00:29:33I thought if we took a picture together, it might easy his mind.
00:29:36A picture?
00:29:38All this drama for a picture?
00:29:40Just stand still.
00:29:41And could you try to look like you don't want to kill me?
00:29:43I leaned closer, forcing a painful smile,
00:29:46and miscalculated the distance my lips brushed his lightly.
00:29:50I'm sorry, I...
00:29:52Don't move.
00:29:53Why aren't you pushing me away?
00:29:55Where's the contempt?
00:29:57He didn't push me away.
00:29:58Instead, he held my waist and the back of my head, deepening the kiss.
00:30:08His kiss wasn't gentle.
00:30:10It was harsh and 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, but he just pulled me onto his lap,
00:30:21his arms locking around my waist.
00:30:23Catherine.
00:30:25The moment his grip loosened, I scrambled to the other end 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 IP had recorded everything.
00:30:36All those little gasps.
00:30:38I must have missed them at the time.
00:30:39Delete it!
00:30:40This is my room!
00:30:41You need to get out!
00:30:46Later, with his help, I was finally able to visit my father in prison.
00:30:53Dad?
00:30:54It's me, Catherine.
00:30:56He looked so frail.
00:30:58He reached for me, trying to speak, but only distorted sounds came out.
00:31:01Miss Clark, our time is up.
00:31:04I don't understand.
00:31:06Who would do this?
00:31:08Before we left, Mr. Nash instructed me to check on your father's circumstances.
00:31:13Julian did?
00:31:14Julian?
00:31:15Why would he do that?
00:31:16I spoke to an old acquaintance inside.
00:31:18He'll make sure your father is protected.
00:31:20He planned for this?
00:31:22He knew.
00:31:22He knew this would happen.
00:31:26This is a specialty pastry from Julian's mother's hometown.
00:31:30He loved it as a child.
00:31:32I'll learn carefully.
00:31:34To thank him, I learned to make his Child Hill pastry.
00:31:44The lobby was as cold and imposing as the man who owned it.
00:31:49No appointment, no meeting.
00:31:51You need to leave.
00:31:52I refused to be intimidated.
00:31:54I was just here to deliver a thank you.
00:31:56I'm just dropping something off for Julian Nash.
00:31:58You can check with his assistant.
00:32:00Every woman who shows up says the same thing.
00:32:03Spare me the act.
00:32:05Just call Kays and Price.
00:32:06If you're so confident, call him yourself.
00:32:09Or do you think you're Miss Wright who can waltz in here whenever she pleases?
00:32:13Her words hit me like a physical blow.
00:32:15Miss Wright.
00:32:16The name echoed in the cavernous lobby and in my heart.
00:32:20I took out my phone and called Julian, but it went unanswered.
00:32:24Having trouble getting 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 anything you bring.
00:32:35It'll go straight in the trash.
00:32:36Just then, a familiar ding cut through the silence and the world seemed to stop.
00:32:41Good day, Mr. Nash.
00:32:45Catherine, why didn't you wait for 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, but he caught my wrist, his 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.
00:33:20I followed Julian into his office.
00:33:23He opened the pastry box I brought,
00:33:25and the fragrance drifted softly through the silent air.
00:33:29Well, be 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 devouring them like a starving man.
00:33:41What a liar.
00:33:44How did the housekeeper know how to make these?
00:33:47He said it's a specialty from your mother's hometown.
00:33:49Thought you might remember the taste.
00:33:51His face shifted.
00:33:52Just a flicker of something unreadable crossing his features.
00:33:55Before he set the empty container aside.
00:33:58What's wrong?
00:33:59If you hated it, just say so.
00:34:00I won't make it again.
00:34:02Catherine,
00:34:02why doesn't your cooking ever set off my allergies?
00:34:07Just took some effort, that's all.
00:34:12There's a private lounge here.
00:34:14Get cleaned up with a hot shower before you go.
00:34:18It's fine.
00:34:19I'll just do it at home.
00:34:21If you end up with pneumonia,
00:34:22I'm tossing you and the pastries straight into the dumpster.
00:34:26Your top's practically transparent.
00:34:29You got a problem?
00:34:33I stepped out of his shower,
00:34:35wrapped in a towel.
00:34:38And that's member of the Moam's skew-vision towel,
00:34:41only to realize my clothes were 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 existed between us at all.
00:34:59I thought he needed comfort,
00:35:01never knowing his wound wasn't in longing,
00:35:03but in those pasts he refused to speak of.
00:35:06Thinking about your mom?
00:35:08I barely remember her face.
00:35:09So no, not likely.
00:35:16I, I wasn't aware she was here.
00:35:19Apologies, I'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 existed between us at all.
00:35:37Pretty average.
00:35:45We went shopping at the boutique with laughter and joy.
00:35:51Oh, come on.
00:35:52You and your husband must have experimented, right?
00:35:55After exiting the mall,
00:35:56I saw his car parked by the roadside.
00:36:00Julian!
00:36:01What a surprise seeing you here!
00:36:06I found out later what happened to the necklace Julian gave me.
00:36:09He went to his office and found the velvet box gone.
00:36:11Has my wife been in my office lately?
00:36:13No, sir.
00:36:13But your sister has stopped by more than once.
00:36:18What's wrong, Eloine?
00:36:19It's Julian.
00:36:20He's being so dramatic.
00:36:21I bet Catherine stirred things up,
00:36:23and now he's lashing out at me.
00:36:25Eloine,
00:36:25isn't Lina Grant hosting a celebration soon?
00:36:27Let's merge my birthday celebration with her event.
00:36:29A birthday is just a date.
00:36:31Building connections is what truly matters.
00:36:32You're leagues ahead of Catherine,
00:36:33so thoughtful and poised.
00:36:35He'd be a fool not to fall for you.
00:36:37What is it?
00:36:38I need a shirt to go with this.
00:36:39There's an event tomorrow.
00:36:40What kind of event is it?
00:36:42Are you one of the key guests?
00:36:43It's Lila Grant's 100-day milestone with her boyfriend.
00:36:45I'm just talking business.
00:36:46I don't want to draw too much attention.
00:36:48I was just adjusting his collar,
00:36:49but my fingers brushed against 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 if you want a better look.
00:37:00Take off your shirt now.
00:37:02And what exactly are 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 things from showing.
00:37:12And slap them onto 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 to myself.
00:37:23I put on the mask,
00:37:25hoping to remain unseen.
00:37:29Miss Grant,
00:37:31today is my birthday,
00:37:32and Julian has been buried in work.
00:37:34Could I borrow your pianist for 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 Steinwein for you.
00:37:53So,
00:37:54what's with the mask?
00:37:55It's just how the outfit was designed.
00:38:04I kept telling myself I had moved on,
00:38:06but seeing them together
00:38:08was a special kind of cruelty.
00:38:11Catherine.
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?
00:38:24I'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 to watch
00:38:55the 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.
00:39:20Don'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
00:40:04and 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.
00:40:43An 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
00:40:59a 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
00:41:09to 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
00:41:17thought things through.
00:41:18Eloane,
00:41:18bring her here.
00:41:21When the last note faded,
00:41:23I didn't wait
00:41:24to 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
00:41:32to 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
00:41:46my mask away.
00:41:50Catherine?
00:41:51Are you out
00:41:52of your damn mind?
00:41:53Let go.
00:41:55She tried to stab me,
00:41:56Julian!
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.
00:42:06I sent Louisa
00:42:08crashing to the floor
00:42:09with one swift kick.
00:42:11What the hell
00:42:12is 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.
00:42:37Let it go.
00:42:38Ernest,
00:42:40take Louisa
00:42:41to the hospital.
00:42:43Julian.
00:42:44He dragged me
00:42:45out 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
00:43:23at the hospital.
00:43:30The banquet scene
00:43:31was in chaos.
00:43:32I walked tall,
00:43:33unable to hide
00:43:34the turmoil inside me.
00:43:35Trail her.
00:43:36Make sure she gets back safely.
00:43:38Yes, sir.
00:43:43What's going on
00:43:44with Louisa?
00:43:45You're going to check on her?
00:43:46One more won't make a difference.
00:43:48She might refuse
00:43:49the driver you sent.
00:43:50Should I take her?
00:43:51Your own sister is hurt
00:43:52and you're worried
00:43:53about her instead?
00:43:54Just a joke.
00:43:55I know my limits.
00:43:56The dried blood
00:43:57catching the light.
00:43:58Wait,
00:43:58is this blood?
00:44:00Get this treated
00:44:01at the hospital.
00:44:06She humiliated me
00:44:07and Julian just stood by
00:44:08and watched?
00:44:10You'd better be honest
00:44:12about what you did
00:44:12to 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
00:44:28this morning
00:44:29saying she wanted
00:44:29to celebrate with you.
00:44:32I'm sorry for getting
00:44:34you mixed up in this.
00:44:35I just lost control
00:44:36for a moment.
00:44:38You're too soft.
00:44:40If it had been me,
00:44:41I would have killed her.
00:44:44I later learned
00:44:45that Lila insisted
00:44:46on talking to Julian.
00:44:47We don't even know
00:44:48Julian Nash.
00:44:49Why on earth
00:44:50would he care
00:44:50what we have to say?
00:44:51Lila was annoyed
00:44:52by Louisa's overstepping
00:44:53at her party.
00:44:54Whether he listens
00:44:55or not doesn't matter.
00:44:57I just want to get
00:44:58some justice.
00:44:59Julian agreed
00:45:00to the meeting easily,
00:45:01but his mood
00:45:02was unusually bad
00:45:03that day.
00:45:06That night involved
00:45:07Miss Wright and Mrs. Nash.
00:45:08It would reflect
00:45:09poorly on us.
00:45:10What does that have
00:45:10to do with me?
00:45:11But Miss Wright,
00:45:12she's nothing between us.
00:45:14There is nothing
00:45:14between us.
00:45:15What are you standing
00:45:16there 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
00:45:24targeting you?
00:45:24Does Julian have
00:45:25a 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
00:45:33and Louisa
00:45:33the right to bully Catherine?
00:45:37A victim
00:45:38who attacks people
00:45:39with a fork
00:45:39and knocks someone
00:45:40flying with one kick?
00:45:42How very novel.
00:45:43Why don't you ask
00:45:44what Louisa did first?
00:45:49Catherine cut her finger
00:45:50on a blade
00:45:50hidden in the piano keys
00:45:52and required
00:45:52several stitches.
00:45:53The truth began
00:45:54to surface
00:45:54during the dinner
00:45:55between Julian
00:45:56and Lila.
00:45:56When did this happen?
00:45:57After you left,
00:45:58the razor blade
00:45:59was hidden inside
00:46:00the new sheet music.
00:46:01I handed the matter
00:46:02of last week's banquet
00:46:03over to the police.
00:46:04I have no idea
00:46:05what you're talking about.
00:46:06Police visit late at night.
00:46:08What trouble
00:46:08have you got yourself
00:46:09into this time?
00:46:10Leave me alone!
00:46:11Do whatever it takes
00:46:12to fix this!
00:46:13Is this about Catherine?
00:46:15Has he lost his mind
00:46:16defending her like this?
00:46:18He doesn't love you.
00:46:19Mrs. Catherine takes on jobs
00:46:20in three fields
00:46:20at the same time
00:46:21design, music, and translation.
00:46:22Her annual income
00:46:23is quite significant
00:46:24as she earns between
00:46:24$50,000 and $200,000
00:46:26per performance.
00:46:27One more thing.
00:46:28The card you gave her
00:46:28was recently charged overseas
00:46:29for over $3 million.
00:46:30What did she buy?
00:46:31A McLaren.
00:46:32Call Catherine
00:46:33and tell her to come back.
00:46:34The madam might be busy.
00:46:36Would you like to call her
00:46:37personally?
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,
00:46:44it seems she has blocked you.
00:46:46I blocked him.
00:46:48He looked very angry.
00:46:52I loathed going back
00:46:53to that so-called home
00:46:54and unexpectedly ran into him.
00:46:57I just came back
00:46:58to get something.
00:46:59I'll leave right away.
00:47:00Catherine,
00:47:01let's talk.
00:47:03There's nothing to talk about.
00:47:07Louisa started it.
00:47:08You didn't explain it
00:47:09properly at all.
00:47:11So you figured it
00:47:12all 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
00:47:22the 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,
00:47:31Julian went to the hospital.
00:47:33When Kacen brought the necklace
00:47:34he 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
00:47:40to give it to her.
00:47:42Shall we head home,
00:47:43Mr. Julian?
00:47:45To the company.
00:47:49I ran into Ernest
00:47:50unexpectedly at the hospital
00:47:51and he apologized
00:47:52for Louisa's behavior
00:47:53at the party.
00:47:55Don't you lay a finger
00:47:56on Catherine.
00:47:58Julian,
00:47:59you are overthinking.
00:48:00I simply ran into
00:48:01Miss Clark
00:48:02and had a few words with her.
00:48:03What?
00:48:04Have you taken a fancy
00:48:05to married women now?
00:48:07Catherine will never
00:48:07get a divorce.
00:48:08Don't waste your time.
00:48:09How dare you fool around
00:48:11with another man
00:48:11right outside the hospital?
00:48:13What exactly are you back for?
00:48:14For your dignity
00:48:15or for your eyesight?
00:48:16What are you scheming
00:48:16with the rights
00:48:17and why do you need
00:48:18Ernest's personal business card?
00:48:19Is accepting a business card
00:48:21can come flirting?
00:48:22Am I to be suspected
00:48:23even for just talking
00:48:24to someone?
00:48:27Hello?
00:48:27I'm at the lounge.
00:48:29Could you send someone
00:48:29to pick me up?
00:48:30It's near the hotel.
00:48:32Stay right there.
00:48:33I'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
00:48:41to the hotel.
00:48:42Are you with the hotel?
00:48:43No,
00:48:43but I've spoken
00:48:44with 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,
00:48:57so I can't show my face.
00:48:59Don't mention him
00:49:00in front of me.
00:49:00He blindfolded me
00:49:02with his tie
00:49:02and held me.
00:49:03Nervous at first,
00:49:04I forced myself to relax.
00:49:05So nervous?
00:49:06Don't you like this?
00:49:08No.
00:49:09Not getting along
00:49:10with Julian Nash?
00:49:11Don't mention him again.
00:49:13In the car,
00:49:14he asked about Julian again
00:49:16and I didn't want
00:49:17to talk about it.
00:49:18Later,
00:49:18in the dark hotel room,
00:49:20he suddenly kissed me
00:49:21and 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
00:49:34are we to each other?
00:49:35Pretending to be
00:49:36Mr. A to cheat on myself?
00:49:37That's completely crazy.
00:49:45What happened last night?
00:49:49Waking up,
00:49:50everything felt like a dream,
00:49:52but my body remembers
00:49:54every moment.
00:49:59One month,
00:50:00he thinks I can be bought.
00:50:04Let me introduce
00:50:05Mr. Nash,
00:50:06CEO of Nash Group.
00:50:10We've
00:50:10never met.
00:50:13A pleasure,
00:50:14Mr. Nash.
00:50:15In that moment,
00:50:17time stood still.
00:50:18It was him,
00:50:19Mr. A.
00:50:20We had to pretend
00:50:20we'd never met.
00:50:22This city is full of women
00:50:24like you,
00:50:24Ms. Clark.
00:50:26Professional,
00:50:27elegant,
00:50:29and available
00:50:30for the right price.
00:50:32The contract terms
00:50:33are standard,
00:50:34Mr. Nash.
00:50:35Every word
00:50:36was a dagger
00:50:36from last night.
00:50:37I had to stay calm.
00:50:39Couldn't let him
00:50:40see me waver.
00:50:41Have dinner with me.
00:50:43I don't think
00:50:43that's appropriate.
00:50:46You already spent
00:50:47last night
00:50:47with your husband.
00:50:49One dinner,
00:50:50that's all I'm asking.
00:50:58Tonight,
00:50:59everything is under control.
00:51:03She thinks
00:51:04she's the hunter.
00:51:05Little does she know,
00:51:07the prey has its eyes
00:51:08on her.
00:51:09Well, well.
00:51:10Look who decided
00:51:11to show up.
00:51:13Words are
00:51:14the finest weapons,
00:51:15and I never miss
00:51:16my mark.
00:51:18Julian mentioned
00:51:19you'd be difficult.
00:51:20I can see why
00:51:21he prefers my company.
00:51:23Does he?
00:51:24Or is it that
00:51:25you're simply available?
00:51:26You think you're
00:51:27so clever?
00:51:27No, Louisa.
00:51:28I don't think.
00:51:29I know.
00:51:30And that's the difference
00:51:31between us.
00:51:32I'm his wife.
00:51:33You're just a
00:51:34distraction.
00:51:40I thought the battlefield
00:51:41was settled.
00:51:42I was wrong.
00:51:43The real fight
00:51:44was just beginning.
00:51:48Did you enjoy
00:51:49your little game?
00:51:51His kiss wasn't love.
00:51:52It was a mark,
00:51:53a possession,
00:51:54a vengeance.
00:51:57You're mine,
00:51:58Catherine.
00:51:59Never forget that.
00:52:02He thinks he's won,
00:52:04but he doesn't know
00:52:05my counterattack
00:52:06has just begun.
00:52:07Remember your place,
00:52:08darling.
00:52:14This is an additional card.
00:52:15It's capped at $10 million
00:52:16a month.
00:52:17You should have been
00:52:17using it all along.
00:52:18There's no need to
00:52:18hold back on Mike.
00:52:19I don't need it.
00:52:20Three years beside me
00:52:21and not a dime touched.
00:52:22What?
00:52:22What?
00:52:22When we part ways,
00:52:23are you planning to tell
00:52:23people I was cold and stingy?
00:52:24Not everyone thinks badly
00:52:25of others.
00:52:26You never really know
00:52:26someone's nature.
00:52:27I'd rather not leave
00:52:27behind any loose ends.
00:52:28Don't want it?
00:52:29Trash it.
00:52:29Just remember,
00:52:30bank cards go in
00:52:31recycling bin.
00:52:32You've avoided home
00:52:32for nearly a month.
00:52:33Want to return willingly
00:52:35or should my dad
00:52:35come fetch you himself?
00:52:37Your call.
00:52:37His threat weighs
00:52:39like 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
00:52:52running late tonight?
00:52:54Nash Group doesn't
00:52:54believe in overtime.
00:52:56Right.
00:52:57His message isn't
00:52:58from 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,
00:53:14and I'll never meddle
00:53:15in your personal matters again.
00:53:16You made the exact same promise
00:53:18when you forced me into marriage.
00:53:19Did you really think
00:53:19I'd fall for it twice?
00:53:21His silence is a volcano
00:53:22about to erupt.
00:53:24I don't want her around.
00:53:26What's your problem?
00:53:27Was it necessary
00:53:28to screech chair
00:53:29across the floor?
00:53:32What?
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,
00:53:40enough of this.
00:53:40You're an adult now.
00:53:41You can't crumble
00:53:42over every little thing.
00:53:43Camille,
00:53:43is that what Elish told you?
00:53:44Because I remember it
00:53:45very differently.
00:53:46Elish,
00:53:46she practically stole
00:53:47that card from me,
00:53:48insisting I wasn't worthy
00:53:48of Julian or the Nash
00:53:49family's resources.
00:53:50What are you saying?
00:53:51You never asked.
00:53:52I never asked?
00:53:53That card carried
00:53:54six million a year.
00:53:55You took it
00:53:55without saying a word?
00:53:57You did,
00:53:58but I thought...
00:53:59Six million a year,
00:54:00not even 20 over three.
00:54:01If Catherine wants it back,
00:54:03I'll wire it to her.
00:54:03If paying back stolen funds
00:54:05solved everything,
00:54:05there'd be no need
00:54:06for law enforcement.
00:54:07Stolen?
00:54:08That's a bit much,
00:54:09don't you think?
00:54:10Return the money you took.
00:54:11Double the amount.
00:54:12Starting now,
00:54:13I'll handle your allowance.
00:54:14Ten thousand per month
00:54:15for the next three years.
00:54:17Only ten thousand?
00:54:18Wasn't it your mother
00:54:19who said you were too young
00:54:20to need that kind of money?
00:54:22His decision surprises me.
00:54:24Kath,
00:54:25it's getting late.
00:54:25You and Julia
00:54:26should spend the night here
00:54:27and join me
00:54:28for breakfast tomorrow.
00:54:31All right, Lawrence.
00:54:33Come, Eloise.
00:54:34Let's go upstairs.
00:54:37Next time something happens,
00:54:38come to me directly.
00:54:39Don't stir up trouble
00:54:40that can be avoided.
00:54:44Pick a room for the night.
00:54:46I'll have someone prepare it.
00:54:48Who is he?
00:54:49Why does he always appear
00:54:51when I need him?
00:54:56The tension between Julian
00:54:58and his father
00:54:58was thick enough
00:54:59to choke on.
00:55:00What happened in that room?
00:55:02He stood in the shadows.
00:55:03When I was nice to Camille tonight,
00:55:05it wasn't because I meant it.
00:55:07I just wanted to get
00:55:08under Alacia's skin.
00:55:09Why are you justifying yourself
00:55:10to me?
00:55:12If they don't have it
00:55:13in this city,
00:55:13go find it in another one.
00:55:15Do I have to spell
00:55:16everything out for you?
00:55:17They're hard to get, actually.
00:55:19They're custom-made
00:55:20Alba Custom Fragrances.
00:55:24Julian,
00:55:25there's no extra blanket here.
00:55:27If you're that cold,
00:55:29come share it.
00:55:29The bed had only one blanket,
00:55:31and Julian was already
00:55:32lying there,
00:55:32expecting me to share it.
00:55:34Frustrated,
00:55:34I kicked the bed.
00:55:35A mistake.
00:55:36Instant toe pain.
00:55:38Catherine,
00:55:39remind me.
00:55:40How old are you again?
00:55:47Mr. Nash said to make sure
00:55:48you both drink it.
00:55:50I have to report back
00:55:50once it's done.
00:55:53Julian, get up.
00:55:55You need to drink the soup.
00:56:03Before I could react,
00:56:05he pulled me into his arms
00:56:06and forced the soup
00:56:07into my mouth through a kiss.
00:56:12After changing into our pajamas,
00:56:13I slammed my foot down on his
00:56:15with a fury that made
00:56:16the floorboards rattle,
00:56:17but he didn't even flinch.
00:56:19That stuff must work quick.
00:56:21Look at you,
00:56:23suddenly full of energy.
00:56:24In the dark,
00:56:25I heard muffled,
00:56:26breathing,
00:56:27strange,
00:56:27restrained sounds.
00:56:28My mind lit up with images
00:56:30I shouldn't be thinking about.
00:56:32I woke up to find myself
00:56:34collapsed right on top of him.
00:56:35Worse,
00:56:36my hand had connected
00:56:37with his face,
00:56:37and then his most sensitive area.
00:56:39I didn't mean to.
00:56:41I'm really sorry.
00:56:42When I sleep,
00:56:43I clutch onto a pillow.
00:56:44I guess I thought you were one.
00:56:46He claimed the bed
00:56:46was too flimsy for intimacy.
00:56:48I blushed in utter mortification.
00:56:50Didn't get much sleep,
00:56:51did you?
00:56:52What's going on with you?
00:56:53The bed in my room
00:56:54is too flimsy
00:56:54for certain activities.
00:56:56We moved to the balcony.
00:56:57Guess the cold wind
00:56:57got me sick.
00:57:02Inside the car,
00:57:03Julian coldly asked me
00:57:04why I was so kind
00:57:05to his father.
00:57:06I was teared,
00:57:07then told him the truth.
00:57:08What did my dad give you
00:57:10to make you treat him
00:57:10so kindly?
00:57:12When debt collectors came
00:57:14and forced me to sell myself,
00:57:16it was your father
00:57:17who stepped in.
00:57:18He gave me the money
00:57:20to fix everything.
00:57:21He checked the sum
00:57:22his father had given me.
00:57:23800,000.
00:57:24His expression was unreadable.
00:57:26Only 800,000?
00:57:32Oh, absolutely.
00:57:34Mr. Nash is wonderful
00:57:35to work with.
00:57:35We've even become friends
00:57:37over the course
00:57:37of our collaboration.
00:57:38Since you two are friends now,
00:57:40Mr. Dupont,
00:57:41there's something
00:57:41I think you should know.
00:57:42Your temporary interpreter,
00:57:43Miss Clark,
00:57:44she doesn't even hold
00:57:45a real translation certification.
00:57:47Is that really the case?
00:57:48I'd be more than happy
00:57:49to help you arrange that,
00:57:50free of charge.
00:57:52One more thing,
00:57:52Miss Wright.
00:57:53It's never a good idea
00:57:54to badmuff people
00:57:55when they're not around.
00:57:59Julian,
00:58:00I hate to bother you,
00:58:01but Elise has been
00:58:01really upset lately.
00:58:03She keeps coming to me
00:58:03in tears,
00:58:04and I can't just stand by,
00:58:05so I had to come
00:58:05come talk to you about it.
00:58:07Let her cry all she wants.
00:58:09Don't give her a single cent.
00:58:11Understood?
00:58:11Mr. Nash,
00:58:12it seems you're lucky
00:58:13to have Miss Wright's
00:58:14expert hands.
00:58:15Sounds like he's envious.
00:58:16Why don't you give him
00:58:17one later?
00:58:17I wouldn't even think of it.
00:58:22In that moment,
00:58:24I saw the challenge
00:58:24in her eyes
00:58:25and the evasion in his.
00:58:27We were husband and wife,
00:58:28yet we stared at each other
00:58:29like strangers.
00:58:30This game was just beginning.
00:58:32How about nine?
00:58:34Sorry,
00:58:34I'm unavailable tonight.
00:58:35You invited me last time,
00:58:37but I showed up at the hotel
00:58:38and never saw you.
00:58:39I had something urgent come up.
00:58:40I explained afterward.
00:58:42I didn't see your message.
00:58:43Okay.
00:58:46Julian,
00:58:47what'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
00:59:04he's investing much in you.
00:59:11The room was dark
00:59:12and so was my heart.
00:59:13I knew he was on his way.
00:59:15I knew I shouldn't expect anything,
00:59:17but that familiar feeling,
00:59:18it wouldn't fade.
00:59:24Seriously?
00:59:25Don't bring him up right now.
00:59:26You're killing the moment.
00:59:28Then why don't you pretend I'm him?
00:59:30Doesn't bother me.
00:59:32Treat me as your husband.
00:59:33Just for a moment,
00:59:35you sounded exactly like
00:59:36my jerk husband.
00:59:38Still haunted by him,
00:59:40huh?
00:59:52Again,
00:59:52every time I wake up,
00:59:54he's gone.
00:59:55I bit him.
00:59:56If he's Julian,
00:59:57there should be marks.
00:59:58I have to know.
01:00:05You actually seem more energized
01:00:06the 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,
01:00:16I'm so sorry.
01:00:17I 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,
01:00:37Julian carried the sleeping Catherine to her bed,
01:00:39but she wouldn't let go of his arm.
01:00:41Let go.
01:00:41She didn't,
01:00:42so he shoved an ugly turtle plush
01:00:44into her arms and left.
01:00:46Under the pillow,
01:00:47he found their marriage certificate.
01:00:49His name was blacked out
01:00:50with 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,
01:00:56I just think it's so nice
01:00:57to 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?
01:01:09That'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
01:01:13without even looking at it.
01:01:14What exactly are you trying to say?
01:01:17Are you still going to send it?
01:01:18What role do you think
01:01:19you play in their story?
01:01:23You've got some nerve
01:01:24cheating on someone
01:01:25who belongs to Lila.
01:01:26You just said you'd do anything, right?
01:01:28Mm-hmm.
01:01:29Because right now, LS,
01:01:31I have an idea.
01:01:36I've thought of a way
01:01:37to finally get back at her.
01:01:40I'm listening.
01:01:43Okay.
01:01:46See that?
01:01:47Perfect 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.
01:01:55Just 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,
01:02:12he turned around and froze.
01:02:14Bold of you,
01:02:15carrying 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
01:02:25buy me gifts like this?
01:02:27Who else do you think
01:02:28I bought them for?
01:02:29Louisa Wright, of course.
01:02:31Those dresses were made
01:02:31for flat chests.
01:02:32She wouldn't fit
01:02:33even if she tried.
01:02:35Up for it?
01:02:36I want to see your face.
01:02:39Knowing too much
01:02:40could be dangerous.
01:02:41The food's for you.
01:02:42Go ahead.
01:02:43Thanks.
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
01:02:49turn on the light
01:02:50and take a look?
01:02:51I think it's better
01:02:52if 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?
01:03:03He's allergic to cream.
01:03:04But this man doesn't care.
01:03:06You...
01:03:07Are you planning to eat
01:03:08all of it with your mouth?
01:03:09Of course.
01:03:11Then...
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
01:03:27but could not heal my heart.
01:03:28I want to stop loving him.
01:03:31Late at night,
01:03:32his 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,
01:03:44I 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,
01:03:57I knew it was dangerous.
01:03:58Yet I couldn't stay away.
01:04:00Miss Clark,
01:04:01you're even more stunning in person
01:04:02than in the photos.
01:04:04If you're feeling warm,
01:04:05don't hesitate to take off your coat.
01:04:06I...
01:04:07I need to see Lila about the dress.
01:04:12Care to explain what's going on?
01:04:13You really think sitting alone with me
01:04:15in the living room counts as a threat?
01:04:18All right, all right.
01:04:19Cautious girls are all the rage these days.
01:04:21I'll go grab her.
01:04:22That would be appreciated.
01:04:26Catherine!
01:04:26Why were you standing out here?
01:04:28It's freezing.
01:04:29Look at these.
01:04:30They look perfect on you.
01:04:32Thank 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...
01:04:39girl time.
01:04:40So, Catherine,
01:04:42what brings you over today?
01:04:43Really?
01:04:43I just...
01:04:44needed to see a friend.
01:04:45But I couldn't stay.
01:04:46Every second in that house
01:04:47felt like suffocation.
01:04:49I needed to escape.
01:04:50Just curious, Miss Clark.
01:04:51Does the surprise I planned for Lila
01:04:53make you feel any pressure?
01:04:54Did I somehow offend you?
01:04:55If something at the last party
01:04:56rubbed you the wrong way,
01:04:57just come out with it.
01:04:57I'll fix it if I can.
01:04:58If you're doing this,
01:04:58do us boss the time
01:04:59and then she Lila on
01:04:59like 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
01:05:06felt real and satisfying.
01:05:08You really couldn't wait
01:05:09until 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,
01:05:14but looks like you beat me to it.
01:05:15Funny.
01:05:16You took your sweet time
01:05:16walking Catherine out.
01:05:17What held you up?
01:05:18I know you look up
01:05:18to Catherine's talent, Lila.
01:05:20Maybe it's best
01:05:20you 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
01:05:24would crack everything apart.
01:05:26If something's wrong,
01:05:27you 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,
01:05:42yet 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
01:05:45where 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
01:05:50top-est orders
01:05:51and reserved the VIP suite.
01:05:52Quite the experience.
01:05:53Give me your measurements.
01:05:56Five 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,
01:06:25what about me?
01:06:27How did you track me down?
01:06:29Get in the car.
01:06:31Didn't take you for someone
01:06:32with 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
01:06:38a meeting nearby.
01:06:39Total coincidence running into you.
01:06:40Impressive.
01:06:41The Nash family really is expanding
01:06:42into every imaginable sector,
01:06:43isn't it?
01:06:44Good.
01:06:45You asked for this.
01:06:48Some 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.
01:07:20You're welcome.
01:07:21And if your dad asks where I am?
01:07:24I'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.
01:07:54Heard 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 me.
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.
01:08:15What'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?
01:08:45The 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.
01:09:38What'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.
01:09:55You'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.
01:10:12It'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,
01:10:51hiding behind a fake identity,
01:10:53and somehow you ended up in bed 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.
01:11:18Want to taste it?
01:11:20Cream recalled Mr. A.
01:11:22Julian's allergy rules him out.
01:11:24What's with the sudden kindness?
01:11:26No 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.
01:11:56The nightmare was far from over.
01:11:57Kathy!
01:11:58How's my surprise coming along?
01:12:00Let's talk over dinner.
01:12:02I'll swing by around eleven.
01:12:04Yet I had to stay strong.
01:12:06Sure.
01:12:06Just send me the restaurant address.
01:12:08I'll meet you there.
01:12:10What I didn't know was,
01:12:11at this very moment,
01:12:13he was silently watching my every move.
01:12:16Sir, are you sure it's a good idea
01:12:17to let Mrs. Nash deal with that man on her own?
01:12:20She kicked me in the shin once so hard
01:12:21I limped for a week.
01:12:24Trust me.
01:12:25Dealing with a gigolo like Pearson Lewis
01:12:26is nothing she can't handle.
01:12:28Sir!
01:12:29Mrs. Nash is brilliant!
01:12:30When Pearson tried to hold her hand,
01:12:31she tore off the tablecloth.
01:12:32A candle nearly burned him.
01:12:34She pretended to panic,
01:12:35stomping it out while apologizing politely.
01:12:37That was the first time I saw
01:12:38such a genuine smile on him.
01:12:40But that smile pierced another woman's heart.
01:12:43In the late night hospital room,
01:12:45I held my brother's clean underwear,
01:12:46only to let him see what I'd hidden most.
01:12:48Why are you here?
01:12:49You'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,
01:12:56so I didn't want him catching a...
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,
01:13:08my phone kept buzzing.
01:13:11Messages from my stepmother
01:13:12were always like this sweet yet stabbing,
01:13:14each one a reminder of how much I owed her.
01:13:17And him,
01:13:18his care was always like this,
01:13:20hidden 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-
01:13:31Which woman?
01:13:34I thought I was playing him,
01:13:35but little did I know,
01:13:37I was the one walking into his trap.
01:13:39Wait!
01:13:39I'm not ready!
01:13:41Let's talk!
01:13:43Let's talk!
01:13:54His strength far exceeded my imagination.
01:14:00Next time,
01:14:01I'll let you see my face.
01:14:04After it was over,
01:14:05he said something that completely threw me off.
01:14:08Meanwhile,
01:14:09an evil alliance plotted a greater betrayal.
01:14:11Screw this up,
01:14:12and 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,
01:14:29I brought backup.
01:14:30Pearson,
01:14:31your nightmare has only just begun.
01:14:34He thought he'd won,
01:14:35but 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,
01:14:47come in.
01:14:47While he was busy lost in lust,
01:14:49I was busy collecting every piece
01:14:51of evidence against him.
01:14:53Pearson,
01:14:53this game I won.
01:14:56Thought I was a helpless lamb?
01:14:58No,
01:14:59I'm a hunter in sheep's clothing.
01:15:01Pearson,
01:15:01your karma has arrived.
01:15:05That condescending smile showed me his true colors.
01:15:08He wanted to use my reputation
01:15:09to 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,
01:15:17film it,
01:15:17then 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,
01:15:28she'll believe whatever I say.
01:15:32I had just left the battlefield,
01:15:34but another hunter was already waiting.
01:15:35She thought she had dirt on me,
01:15:37but 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,
01:15:59waiting 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,
01:16:06what about you?
01:16:06Catherine's with a man in this room,
01:16:08who's staking you or us.
01:16:09Seems like your show.
01:16:10Go on, Mr. Nash.
01:16:12Ladies first.
01:16:13The door opened,
01:16:13and everyone saw the mess inside,
01:16:16yet truth often hides in the most unexpected places.
01:16:18Too 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,
01:16:28who is usually outspoken,
01:16:29was completely stunned by 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, never heard the name.
01:16:42I can tell that this man has just finished a private meeting
01:16:45and is about to tidy his appearance.
01:16:47He immediately remembered that this person
01:16:48was a former colleague he had met at the nightclub,
01:16:50who had been a dancer, homosexual,
01:16:52and had even dressed as a woman.
01:16:54No!
01:16:55No!
01:16:55No!
01:16:56Leela, wait, darling, 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,
01:17:15and 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, Eloise?
01:17:27Is that right?
01:17:28People who live off cheeks rarely get a happy ending.
01:17:34Who's good, who?
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 tipped off.
01:18:50Outside, the city blurred her freedom,
01:18:52slipping 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,
01:18:59by 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,
01:19:26trying to expose me,
01:19:27your reaction was just...
01:19:28off.
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 Elise 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.
01:20:04You're punting 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, you were the one who came up with the plan to 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 or did you always intend to wield it against a leash?
01:20:39Julian, I swear, I 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, I 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.
01:21:11Piano.
01:21:12Now.
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 suddenly ask for it?
01:21:51When Catherine returned, did she say anything?
01:21:58I'll see you inside.
01:22:04You think this is over?
01:22:06Don't kid yourself.
01:22:08Don't kid yourself.
01:22:08As long as I'm around, you'll never have peace.
01:22:11You and Julian share the same father, but the gap between you two is staggering.
01:22:14You've been used as a tool, left to deal with the fallout, and you still don't see it.
01:22:20Ilaish, 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, do not 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.
01:22:40Oh my god, Julian, don'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, and for a moment, just a moment, I 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.
01:23:07She'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, I'll need to cover your eyes before 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, I mean, who's Mr. Nash?
01:23:48From this moment on, whatever I tell you to do, you do it.
01:23:52No questions.
01:23:54I waited, keeping the blindfold on.
01:23:56Giving him control showed my trust.
01:23:59The sofa relaxed me, but my heart raced.
01:24:10Mr. A?
01:24:14Fear overwhelmed me.
01:24:15As his lips touched my collarbone mole, I felt safe.
01:24:20So, do 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.
01:24:51No matter how sleepy or exhausted I was.
01:24:55Just for the chance to see him.
01:25:04Julian, wear 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, but I can't let her always suffer.
01:25:21Can I?
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?
01:25:51Sure.
01:25:52I didn't want to admit it, but my body remembered.
01:25:55I knew what I wanted, but I was afraid to admit it.
01:25:58He remembered, and 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, and we're right by the door.
01:26:14The housekeeper hasn't even left yet.
01:26:16He pressed closer, and I had no choice but 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 pressed against my neck, I knew I wouldn't escape unscathed.
01:26:34Good girl.
01:26:38I thought it would escalate, but he only kissed my chin, toying with my shame.
01:26:42Are you kidding me?
01:26:46Why do I have to close my eyes?
01:26:49Just playing around.
01:26:51He turned my shame into a game, kissed me, then I'm out of here, and left me to pick
01:26:56up the pieces.
01:27:01Need 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, with 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, warm, safe, like 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, he says lightly, but ripples stir in my heart.
01:27:40And the phone rang, interrupting everything.
01:27:43Mr. Nash, it's Louisa's assistant.
01:27:45Something terrible has happened.
01:27:47What's going on?
01:27:47The client made a move on Louisa.
01:27:49He locked her in.
01:27:50Please, Mr. Nash, you have to come quickly.
01:27:52Send me the location.
01:27:53He suddenly got a call, then rushed off.
01:27:56No explanation, no 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 are you planning to make?
01:28:21This is it.
01:28:22He said to come pick him up.
01:28:28Cold wind howled outside, drowning out all noise.
01:28:31She knew I would come all along.
01:28:33I couldn't hear what Julian was saying, and honestly, I was relieved.
01:28:36Because if I had heard what he said, I wasn't sure I'd have had strength to 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 had already taken my place.
01:28:54I should have known earlier.
01:28:55It was foolish of me to rush over like that, all because of one brief phone call.
01:29:05Please, pick up the phone.
01:29:26Please, pick up the phone.
01:29:31I have a high fever.
01:29:32I don't need you.
01:29:34Gathering my last strength, I shoved him away with both palms.
