00:00:00My name was Haley Morgan. Today was the day I walked out of prison. Four years served. No family waited
00:00:07outside for me.
00:00:09Haley Morgan, you're free now. Keep your nose clean out there.
00:00:15I looked up and saw a luxury car waiting outside the prison gate.
00:00:21My own parents didn't come. How pathetic.
00:00:25And the person who came to pick me up was Emily, the friend I trusted most.
00:00:29She walked towards me in heels, still as sharp and dazzling as ever.
00:00:33Haley, I came to pick you up. What are you doing here?
00:00:37You got out today. No way I was missing this.
00:00:40Food first, or do you want to go straight back to the Morgans?
00:00:44The Morgans? The Morgans.
00:00:47Four years ago, they sent me to prison with their own hands.
00:00:51The Morgan residence stopped being my home a long time ago.
00:00:56Neither.
00:00:59Then where do you want to go?
00:01:03I need to get married first.
00:01:08What?
00:01:11Prison taught me one thing.
00:01:14If you want to survive, you have to be more ruthless than everyone else.
00:01:18And right now, I needed a man powerful enough.
00:01:22Enough to take me back and help me collect every debt.
00:01:25Take me to Link Golf Club.
00:01:28You just got out and you're already looking for trouble?
00:01:32Not trouble.
00:01:36I'm going to take what belongs to me.
00:01:40Today, I was going to meet the most dangerous man in Flanmarie.
00:01:46And my future husband.
00:01:50I had just gotten out of prison, and I walked straight into Flanmarie's most elite golf club.
00:01:56Today, the entire place had been cleared for one man.
00:02:01Caden Evans.
00:02:03The current head of the Evans family.
00:02:05Cold, dangerous, untouchable.
00:02:08Grandpa, stop bringing up that engagement.
00:02:10Push me again and I'll wipe out the Morgans.
00:02:14The call ended.
00:02:17The next second, I saw him raise his golf club.
00:02:22And his tee was not a golf tee.
00:02:24It was a living man.
00:02:27Don't move.
00:02:28Ruin my shot, and you know the consequences.
00:02:35Ball flew.
00:02:36Hole in one.
00:02:39Brutal.
00:02:40I liked it.
00:02:41Suddenly, a bodyguard reached to block me.
00:02:43Stop!
00:02:43You're not allowed in here!
00:02:44He reached to block me.
00:02:46I kicked him away.
00:02:48Ah!
00:02:53I walked towards Caden.
00:02:57Is this how you treat your future fiancé?
00:03:01Fiancé?
00:03:02I've never met a woman bold enough to speak to me like that.
00:03:04Caden's expression shifted from surprise as he studied the audacious woman before him.
00:03:08You'll be the last.
00:03:13He turned to leave.
00:03:14I walked straight toward him.
00:03:17Caden Evans.
00:03:21Remember me?
00:03:24I'm your future fiancé.
00:03:32Caden had no intention of entertaining me, but I knew exactly how to make him stop.
00:03:41Your grandfather has been pressuring you to get married, hasn't he?
00:03:45You have 60 seconds.
00:03:47Then I'll make it quick.
00:03:48We enter a contract marriage.
00:03:51You keep your grandfather off your back, and I borrow your power.
00:03:56What makes you think I'd give you that opportunity?
00:04:00Good.
00:04:01I slightly verted my gaze, my eyes full of calculation.
00:04:05I glanced at the project file on the ground.
00:04:09This.
00:04:11Utopia.
00:04:13You need someone to take it over.
00:04:14You want Utopia?
00:04:17Let's make a bet.
00:04:18If I make a hole-in-one, the project is mine.
00:04:24You really are bold.
00:04:27Do you dare take the bet?
00:04:29He stared at me for two seconds, then smiled.
00:04:32Fine.
00:04:35I picked up the club.
00:04:37This shot wasn't just about winning a project.
00:04:41I was telling him I was worth it.
00:04:43The ball flew beautifully, like a blade cutting through the sky.
00:04:51It went in!
00:04:53I handed him the file.
00:04:55Your turn.
00:04:58Caden opened the file, and his expression changed instantly.
00:05:03Get the car.
00:05:04Where to, sir?
00:05:05The Morgan house.
00:05:07To talk about the engagement.
00:05:09Caden turned around and strode away, with his assistant hurrying to follow closely behind.
00:05:17The game had finally begun.
00:05:22When I returned to the Morgan house, they were preparing an engagement banquet for Emmalyn.
00:05:29How festive.
00:05:32My biological parents were personally placing their adopted daughter where I should have been.
00:05:38Emma, you must look perfect today.
00:05:40Once the Evans family agrees, the Morgan family is secure.
00:05:44I'll do my best, Mom.
00:05:47Sir.
00:05:49Miss Haley Morgan is back.
00:05:51Why did she have to come back today of all days?
00:05:54Give her some money and send her away.
00:05:58I stood at the doorway and heard every word.
00:06:06Dad.
00:06:08Mom.
00:06:14You really don't look happy to see me.
00:06:19Hayley.
00:06:20Don't misunderstand.
00:06:22I've missed you all this time.
00:06:25She reached for my hand with that fake sweet expression.
00:06:28I raised my hand and slapped her hard.
00:06:35That slap is what you owed me from four years ago.
00:06:43Hayley!
00:06:44Have you lost your mind?
00:06:46You dare hit Emma?
00:06:49Why wouldn't I?
00:06:51I am the biological daughter of the Morgan family.
00:06:55She is just an adopted daughter.
00:06:59Living in my place.
00:07:00Emmalyn clutched her face and tears spilled instantly.
00:07:03She looked convincingly heartbroken.
00:07:06Too bad for her.
00:07:07I wouldn't play along this time.
00:07:12That slap finally reminded them of four years ago.
00:07:15Hayley!
00:07:16Don't push this too far!
00:07:18Emma has been think of you all these years.
00:07:21And you hit her the minute you come back?
00:07:24Thinking of me?
00:07:27You mean the kind of thinking of me that sent me to prison?
00:07:30Hayley, I know you hate me.
00:07:33But back then it really was an accident.
00:07:36An accident?
00:07:37I stared at Harold.
00:07:39Dad, should I repeat the truth about that car crash in front of Regav everyone?
00:07:44Harold's face went pale instantly.
00:07:48Shut your mouth!
00:07:49Enough!
00:07:50He immediately took out his phone.
00:07:54One hundred million.
00:07:56I'll transfer it to you right now.
00:07:59Take the money and keep your mouth shut.
00:08:01My phone pinged with the transfer notification.
00:08:04One hundred million.
00:08:06Received.
00:08:09That's very generous.
00:08:11You got your money.
00:08:12Now get out.
00:08:13Who said I was leaving?
00:08:15Everyone in the room froze.
00:08:18That one hundred million was only your hush money.
00:08:21It wasn't enough to buy me out.
00:08:23I was back.
00:08:24And I was not leaving again.
00:08:28Harold threw one hundred million at me and still couldn't get rid of me.
00:08:31So my dear mother finally dropped the act.
00:08:34Guards!
00:08:34A group of bodyguards closed in immediately.
00:08:37Hayley.
00:08:38I don't care what kind of monster you've become out there.
00:08:41This is not a place for you to go wild.
00:08:43Hold her down!
00:08:46I stayed where I am and rolled my wrist once.
00:08:48They probably still thought I was the same Hayley from four years ago.
00:08:52You want to know what I learned in prison?
00:08:55Move!
00:08:57The first one charged at me.
00:08:59I grabbed his wrist and twisted until it broke.
00:09:04The second one swinged.
00:09:05I drove my knee straight into his ribs.
00:09:08The third one barely got close before I kicked him flat.
00:09:11Three seconds.
00:09:12Every guard is down.
00:09:17How is that possible?
00:09:21Hayley!
00:09:22You lunatic!
00:09:23I shook out my hand.
00:09:24My breathing wasn't even uneven.
00:09:27Prison didn't destroy me.
00:09:29It only forged me into someone none of you can afford to provoke.
00:09:33Just then, footsteps sounded from the front entrance.
00:09:36The real show had begun.
00:09:40Guards lay scattered across the floor.
00:09:42Right when the Morgan family was in complete chaos.
00:09:45Caden Evans has arrived!
00:09:47Mr. Evans has arrived.
00:09:49The whole room fell silent instantly.
00:09:54Caden!
00:09:55She still thought he came for her.
00:09:57Her eyes lighted up at once.
00:09:59Mr. Evans!
00:10:00Welcome!
00:10:01Emma, go to him!
00:10:03Caden, I...
00:10:04Be quiet.
00:10:07She froze.
00:10:10I didn't come here for you.
00:10:16I came to honor the marriage agreement.
00:10:19Of course, of course.
00:10:21Emma is already...
00:10:22I wasn't talking about her.
00:10:27He looked at me.
00:10:30The woman I'm going to marry is Hayley.
00:10:32The air itself seemed to please.
00:10:36That's impossible!
00:10:39Mr. Evans, are you mistaken?
00:10:42I advise you choose Emmeline.
00:10:44Don't choose Hayley.
00:10:45She's a burden.
00:10:46She just got out of prison.
00:10:49So what?
00:10:54She's the one I chose.
00:10:55Emmeline's face turned ghostly pale.
00:10:57I looked at her and finally felt a little better.
00:11:00She finally tasted what it felt like to fall from grace.
00:11:05After Caden publicly took my side, we went into the garden.
00:11:08It was just the two of us, but the air between us was even more dangerous than it had been
00:11:13inside.
00:11:13Where exactly did that file you gave me come from?
00:11:16That's not the question you should be asking.
00:11:18Then what should I ask?
00:11:20Ask about your mother.
00:11:26His gaze turned instantly cold.
00:11:29That car crash wasn't an accident.
00:11:33Keep talking.
00:11:35The driver was named Dahlia.
00:11:37She's dead.
00:11:39Dead?
00:11:40Yes.
00:11:41But the one who truly wanted your mother dead is still alive.
00:11:44He grabbed me by the throat.
00:11:48Hayley.
00:11:52You better not be playing with me.
00:11:55I didn't flinch.
00:11:56I didn't fear him.
00:11:57Caden.
00:11:58If you want the truth, you have no choice but to work with me.
00:12:03His fingers tightened for a second, then slowly released.
00:12:07I knew I made the right bet.
00:12:08I'd already dragged this man into my game.
00:12:15After the garden talk, I walked back into the Morgan house.
00:12:18Since I was back, some things should finally return to their rightful owner.
00:12:23Leland.
00:12:24Yes, Miss Morgan?
00:12:25Take people to Emmeline's room.
00:12:26Throw every single thing she owns out into the hall.
00:12:29I...
00:12:29Did I stutter?
00:12:30The servants all froze where they stood.
00:12:32They were scared.
00:12:33Too bad for them.
00:12:34They feared me more now.
00:12:35I am the true daughter of the Morgan family.
00:12:38Everything here that doesn't belong to her stays no longer.
00:12:45Soon, the hallway was piled high with Emmeline's luxury belongings.
00:12:49Dresses, heels, jewelry, bags.
00:12:52All bought with the life she stole from me.
00:12:57Haley!
00:12:58Have you gone mad?
00:13:02That room was always mine.
00:13:06I looked down and spot the jewelry case she treasured most.
00:13:12In the next second, I crushed it under my heel.
00:13:15No!
00:13:17Beautiful sound.
00:13:18I'd been waiting four years to hear that sound.
00:13:23Emmeline's belongings covered the hallway.
00:13:25She was crying like her world is ending.
00:13:27And Harold had finally lost his temper.
00:13:29Bring me the whip!
00:13:30A wooden box was brought forward.
00:13:31Inside lay a long whip studded with barbs.
00:13:34Haley, you will be punished today.
00:13:35We'll see whether you still dare be unrily.
00:13:37He raised his arm, about to bring it down.
00:13:39I stepped forward and snatched the whip right out of his hand.
00:13:43You...
00:13:43I swung back and lashed his shoulder hard.
00:13:46Blood seeped through instantly.
00:13:47Everyone was stunned to silence.
00:13:49First lash, for treating a wretch like your daughter.
00:13:54Second lash, for betraying your own flesh and blood.
00:14:02I stood in the middle of the wreckage, whip in hand.
00:14:05In that moment, they finally understood.
00:14:06I didn't come back to apologize.
00:14:08I came back to collect.
00:14:09But just then, an old commanding voice came from outside.
00:14:13Don't you dare touch her.
00:14:14The true headmaster of the Morgan family had arrived.
00:14:22After those two lashes, the entire Morgan house descended into chaos.
00:14:29Harold was bleeding, and Carol and Emmeline were in full panic.
00:14:32But in the next second, every voice in the room was crushed by the man at the door.
00:14:38Dad.
00:14:40Clinton!
00:14:41Good timing!
00:14:42Haley!
00:14:43She...
00:14:43Be quiet.
00:14:44The moment Grandpa's cane struck the floor, even the air turned heavy.
00:14:48Grandpa.
00:14:50Grandpa.
00:14:50She tried to act pitiful again.
00:14:52Too bad Grandpa didn't even look at her this time.
00:14:55I have only one granddaughter, and that is Haley.
00:15:07Dad, you can't be this biased!
00:15:10Biased?
00:15:14Where was your talk about bias when you sent your biological daughter to prison?
00:15:23That sentence stabbed Harold right through the chest.
00:15:26From that moment on, I was no longer standing alone.
00:15:38Haley, come here.
00:15:40After Grandpa showed up, someone in this house finally remembered that I am the real Morgan.
00:15:46I walked to his side.
00:15:47He took out a black card and handed it to me.
00:15:50There's 100 million on this.
00:15:52Spend it however you want.
00:15:55Thank you, Grandpa.
00:15:57Dad!
00:15:58She already took 100 million just now!
00:16:01You can't keep indulging her!
00:16:03Are you questioning my decision?
00:16:07Clinton, Haley just came back.
00:16:09Giving her that much money is inappropriate.
00:16:11Inappropriate for her?
00:16:12But it was appropriate to give everything in this family to an adopted daughter?
00:16:17Grandpa, I never wanted to fight Haley for anything.
00:16:22Really?
00:16:23Then all these years, while you took my room, my place in the family, my parents, did you not feel
00:16:29guilty at all?
00:16:32She couldn't say a word.
00:16:34Another 100 million black card.
00:16:36Secured.
00:16:36Now it was time for me to go out and spend a little.
00:16:43That night, I went to Starlight Club.
00:16:45I needed to celebrate.
00:16:47And I needed Flamory to remember me again.
00:16:50Haley!
00:16:52First drink?
00:16:53To celebrate your release.
00:16:55To freedom.
00:16:56I heard you went back to the Morgan house and caused absolute chaos?
00:17:01Not bad.
00:17:03Whipped my father Weiss and took the adopted daughter's room.
00:17:06Well done.
00:17:07The second she said that, a filthy hand slid onto her waist.
00:17:10Pretty girl.
00:17:12Drinking alone is boring.
00:17:14Get lost.
00:17:16She shoved him away.
00:17:17But instead of backing off, the man smiled at me too.
00:17:21Oh, there's another one too.
00:17:24I'll take both of you tonight.
00:17:28I sat down my glass and stood up slowly.
00:17:30Three seconds.
00:17:31More than enough for me to teach him what regret felt like.
00:17:37That idiot still had no idea who he had just provoked.
00:17:40What?
00:17:41You want to fight?
00:17:43Not want.
00:17:45I already started.
00:17:47I drove my foot straight into his knee.
00:17:51He had just knelt down when I kicked him hard in the stomach.
00:17:55He had just gotten up and hadn't even touched me when I grabbed him by the neck and pissed him
00:17:59against the table.
00:18:03Damn.
00:18:04The music never stopped.
00:18:06But the dance floor had already frozen.
00:18:09Three seconds.
00:18:11A tough guy, beaten and captured on camera.
00:18:14I stood in the wreckage without even breathing harder.
00:18:17Anyone else?
00:18:18Everyone was staring at me.
00:18:20Like they were looking at a monster.
00:18:23Good.
00:18:24I didn't come back to be anyone's obedient daughter.
00:18:28Call the boss!
00:18:29Get the boss here now!
00:18:31The crowd's gaze simultaneously turned away from me.
00:18:34Before long, people started looking down from the upper VIP floor.
00:18:38The people truly qualified to speak tonight were finally about to step in.
00:18:44The night cub had gone terrifyingly quiet.
00:18:47Everyone was waiting for the mob boss, Thaddeus, to arrive.
00:18:51Who's making trouble in my territory?
00:18:53He walked in with his men, his eyes sharp enough to devour people.
00:18:57Boss!
00:18:58It was her!
00:19:01A woman.
00:19:03All of you couldn't handle one woman?
00:19:07He looked at me and smiled coldly.
00:19:10You're good.
00:19:12Too bad this is my ground.
00:19:15Too bad this is my ground.
00:19:15So?
00:19:16He maintained a threatening stare.
00:19:18So tonight, you'll crawl out on your knees.
00:19:22I looked at him and suddenly smiled.
00:19:24Then I looked upstairs.
00:19:26Caden was standing there.
00:19:27He didn't move.
00:19:28But he didn't leave either.
00:19:30Good.
00:19:30Then let him see exactly how crazy his fiancé really is.
00:19:39I grabbed Caden's tie the moment he reached the lower floor.
00:19:43Hayley.
00:19:44The next second, I kissed him.
00:19:49Everyone gasped.
00:19:52People began whispering and pointing.
00:20:00The moment I kissed Caden, the entire room looked like it had been struck by lightning.
00:20:04Because everyone in Flammery knows, Caden Evans hates women getting close to him.
00:20:08Hayley, you are insane in front of everyone?
00:20:10You, you dare use Mr. Evans against me?
00:20:12He didn't push me away.
00:20:14He didn't explode either.
00:20:15Thaddeus.
00:20:16But his eyes were dangerously dark.
00:20:18You just said, what were you going to do to my fiancé?
00:20:21A misunderstanding.
00:20:22It's all a misunderstanding.
00:20:25Caden pressed a cigar against Thaddeus' forehead.
00:20:32That's your warning.
00:20:33Touch her again and you die.
00:20:36Thaddeus dropped to his knees on the spot.
00:20:38I looked at Caden and suddenly thought, this contract marriage was becoming more valuable by the second.
00:20:45The Morgan family held a recognition banquet for me.
00:20:48Officially, it was meant to restore my place.
00:20:51In reality, plenty of people were waiting to laugh at me.
00:20:53I heard she just got out of prison.
00:20:56Someone like that belongs in a place like this?
00:20:59I walked in on heels and didn't even give them a look.
00:21:02What mattered to me wasn't their gossip.
00:21:04What mattered was who would be the first idiot to volunteer for trouble.
00:21:10Hayley, tonight is your big night.
00:21:12Wait, I'm truly happy for you.
00:21:16She sounded so sincere.
00:21:19If I didn't know how malicious she really was, I might have believed her.
00:21:24Miss Hayley Morgan, we brought you a gift.
00:21:27Several people carried in a large chest.
00:21:31They opened it and inside was a stack of gold bars.
00:21:35I stood alone, not far from the box.
00:21:38Prison life must have been rough.
00:21:39Consider these gold bars a little comfort for you.
00:21:42Gold bars.
00:21:43This wasn't a gift.
00:21:45They were public humiliating me for having been in prison.
00:21:48Good.
00:21:49The first volunteer had arrived.
00:21:55The entire room was watching me.
00:21:58They wanted to see me humiliated.
00:22:00Maybe even watch me lose control.
00:22:02Too bad for them.
00:22:04I never disappoint.
00:22:08Miss Morgan, why so quiet?
00:22:11Don't you like the gift?
00:22:14I walked up to him.
00:22:16Then I slapped him twice.
00:22:18Hard.
00:22:21You.
00:22:22First slap.
00:22:23To teach you to shut your mouth.
00:22:26You dare hit me?
00:22:30Second slap.
00:22:36To teach you your place.
00:22:38I don't just dare hit you.
00:22:41I also dare ask you.
00:22:45Who the hell are you?
00:22:47To judge me.
00:22:48Nearly knocked his face sideways.
00:22:51People in the crowd had already started backing away.
00:22:54Because they were finally realizing.
00:22:59Tonight's Haley wasn't here to entertain them.
00:23:02I.
00:23:03I.
00:23:05I.
00:23:07His legs gave out.
00:23:08And his pants went wet on the spot.
00:23:11The hall fell dead silent.
00:23:15The guests wore varied expressions.
00:23:19And we were only getting started.
00:23:25The farce had barely ended before the next idiot steps up.
00:23:29Miss Haley Morgan.
00:23:31Since you've just come out.
00:23:32I brought something especially fitting for you too.
00:23:35He handed over a velvet box.
00:23:38Inside was a silver bracelet.
00:23:40Slim.
00:23:41Cold.
00:23:42And looking exactly like handcuffs.
00:23:50He was reminding everyone.
00:23:52That I'd been in prison.
00:23:54Why don't you try it on?
00:23:56I didn't take it.
00:23:58I just looked at him.
00:24:01Doesn't your father own 1% of Morgan Group?
00:24:07What?
00:24:08Why are you asking that?
00:24:10Simple.
00:24:12You humiliated me with handcuffed jewelry.
00:24:15So your family can offer that 1% share as an apology.
00:24:20You're insane!
00:24:22You can refuse.
00:24:24But starting tomorrow, I promise all of Flamazy will know exactly how your family raises its standing.
00:24:33By humiliating women.
00:24:35His face changed dramatically.
00:24:38Because he knew I meant every word.
00:24:44Just then, his father stepped forward.
00:24:47Transfer it.
00:24:52The whole room went silent again.
00:24:55This wasn't me demanding an apology.
00:24:59This was me making a stand for myself.
00:25:04Two rounds of humiliation both sent right back where they came from.
00:25:08Now it was finally my turn to speak.
00:25:12Haley.
00:25:14Come up to the stage.
00:25:17I stepped onto the stage and looked out at everyone below.
00:25:21Just minutes ago, they were mocking me.
00:25:25Now they were silent as frightened little birds.
00:25:28Many of you think prison destroys a woman.
00:25:33But for me, it didn't.
00:25:36Prison did not destroy me.
00:25:38It forged me.
00:25:39The hall was silent.
00:25:42Four years ago, you looked at me like I was a joke.
00:25:46From today on, Flanmarie will make way for me.
00:25:52The second I finished speaking, the room stayed silent.
00:25:56Then the applause started.
00:25:59First one or two people.
00:26:01Then the entire hall rose to its feet.
00:26:04Emeline stood below the stage, looking half dead.
00:26:07She thought tonight would be my public humiliation.
00:26:09Instead, it became my coronation.
00:26:11But I knew it still wasn't enough.
00:26:13Because the next step, I wanted more than applause.
00:26:15I wanted Morgan Group.
00:26:18The applause had barely faded at the recognition of Sanyu.
00:26:21Then I made my second move.
00:26:22I want to enter Morgan Group.
00:26:26What did you just say?
00:26:28You?
00:26:29A convicted was-bended woman who want to enter Morgan Group?
00:26:32This was my dear brother.
00:26:33I had just returned, and his first instinct was not to welcome me.
00:26:36It was to shove me back into the mud.
00:26:38Haley, stop this.
00:26:39The company is not a place for you to run wild.
00:26:42Haley, I know you want to prove yourself.
00:26:44But Frankie has worked so hard for the group all these years.
00:26:49Because he's incompetent, I have to stay outside the door of power forever?
00:26:55Haley!
00:27:16Haley!
00:27:20When I threw the file down, Frankie was still smirking.
00:27:24He thought I was bluffing again.
00:27:28The Utopia Project.
00:27:30It is now under my watch.
00:27:32Ridiculous!
00:27:34Utopia is the Evans family's $10 billion project!
00:27:40Who do you think you are?
00:27:44I'm the one who got it.
00:27:46Grandpa opened the file.
00:27:50He changed expression after only two pages.
00:27:56This has Caden's personal signature on it.
00:28:01The banquet hall erupted at once.
00:28:03Signed personally by Mr. Evans?
00:28:06She really secured Utopia?
00:28:09Impossible.
00:28:12This must be fake!
00:28:15Fake?
00:28:16Then call Caden right now.
00:28:18Ask him whether this contract is fake.
00:28:21Frankie stopped talking, because he didn't dare.
00:28:24He knew the moment the call connected, he'd look even more pathetic.
00:28:27And I enjoyed watching him afraid.
00:28:32The moment the Utopia file came out, everything shifted.
00:28:36The people who had been waiting for my embarrassment were now all watching Frankie.
00:28:41Enough!
00:28:42Utopia alone is enough to qualify Haley for Morgan Group.
00:28:47Grandpa!
00:28:48She doesn't even understand company operations!
00:28:52So what?
00:28:53You've worked here for years.
00:28:55What exact contribution have you done for the group?
00:28:58Frankie's face turned pale instantly.
00:29:00That line hit harder than a slap.
00:29:02From today onward,
00:29:04Haley is appointed project manager.
00:29:07Grandpa, but...
00:29:07Quiet!
00:29:08Emelyn bit her lip, her eyes full of resentment.
00:29:11She had spent years playing the Morgan daughter.
00:29:13And now I'd returned and taken her place,
00:29:15and the power that came with it.
00:29:17Project manager?
00:29:22I'll take the position.
00:29:24Getting into Morgan Group was only the beginning.
00:29:26Next, I was going to make them give back everything they were holding.
00:29:33Grandpa had just announced my appointment when two more groups entered from the doors.
00:29:38The first was leading by Emerly.
00:29:41The second was Thaddeus and his people.
00:29:45Haley, congratulations.
00:29:49She lifted her hand, and an assistant handed over a file.
00:29:53This is my gift for you.
00:29:55West District Development Rights.
00:29:58It's yours now.
00:30:02West District Development Rights?
00:30:06Even his voice changed, because he'd been eyeing it for two years, and still couldn't get it.
00:30:14Miss Haley Morgan.
00:30:16What happened at the nightclub was my mistake.
00:30:20This is my apology.
00:30:22He handed over another document.
00:30:23Starlight Club.
00:30:24From today onward, it's yours too.
00:30:26The hall went dead silent.
00:30:29One handed me government's project, Weavingly Riddle Prover.
00:30:32The other offered a club owned by gangs.
00:30:36After tonight, no one in Flan Mary would dare mess with me.
00:30:43Emily and Thaddeus had just finished when the real heavyweight arrived.
00:30:47Mr. Walter Emhams has arrived!
00:30:55The entire room rose to its feet.
00:30:59Even Harold changed his expression instantly.
00:31:04Mr. Evans, your presence is an honor for my family.
00:31:08I didn't come for you.
00:31:10He looked directly at me.
00:31:14Haley.
00:31:15Mr. Evans.
00:31:18I came here to say one thing.
00:31:21Haley is my fiancée.
00:31:25The room exploded.
00:31:29Impossible.
00:31:34Mr. Evans.
00:31:36Is there some misunderstanding?
00:31:38Walter slowly clenched his fingers into a fist.
00:31:42Misunderstanding?
00:31:45Anyone who dares bully her is challenging the Evans family.
00:31:52His words were like a blade driven straight into the chest of every Morgan in the room.
00:31:58At last, they understood.
00:32:00Behind me stood more than my grandpa.
00:32:03The entire Evans family was backing me too.
00:32:09With the Evans family backing me, it was finally time to settle the most valuable debt of the night.
00:32:15Emeline.
00:32:16I turned toward her.
00:32:20She instinctively stepped back.
00:32:22The 5% stake in Morgan group in your name.
00:32:25It's time to give it back.
00:32:29What?
00:32:30Haley, don't go too far!
00:32:32I gave those shares to Emma!
00:32:34You gave them to her?
00:32:37You took Morgan property and gifted it to an adopted daughter?
00:32:43And you still dare sound righteous about it?
00:32:46I...
00:32:47I feel dizzy.
00:32:49Her body went limp and she collapsed toward Caroline.
00:32:52There it was again.
00:32:53Her favorite little trick.
00:32:58Fanting again?
00:33:00I know medical skills.
00:33:05Want me to wake you up properly?
00:33:07Her eyelashes visibly trembled.
00:33:09Good.
00:33:10She understood.
00:33:16Emmeline lay in Carol's arms, pretending she was on the verge of death.
00:33:21Haley, Emma is already like this and you still want to pressure her?
00:33:26Pressure her?
00:33:27I'm helping her.
00:33:29I walked over and grabbed Emmeline by the wrist.
00:33:33I pressed one pressure point and her whole body went rigid.
00:33:37It hurts!
00:33:38It hurts!
00:33:39It hurts!
00:33:41No!
00:33:43So you are awake.
00:33:46The room fell silent.
00:33:48She'd been pretending to faint until I forced her awake.
00:33:51Interesting.
00:33:52Emma, since you're awake, sign it.
00:33:57The share transfer agreement was placed in front of her.
00:34:01Dad.
00:34:03Mom.
00:34:04Sign it.
00:34:06That simple words crushed the last of her pride.
00:34:10Her hand shook as she signed.
00:34:13The 5% stake finally became mine.
00:34:19Tonight, I didn't just take back my identity.
00:34:21I took back money, too.
00:34:26The HR director eyed me with contempt on sight.
00:34:30Fill this form out first.
00:34:33I looked down.
00:34:35None of this belonged on an employment form.
00:34:37It was pure humiliation.
00:34:40What, too scared to fill it in?
00:34:42Not scared.
00:34:43I just think you're stupid.
00:34:46You.
00:34:47I tossed my phone on the desk.
00:34:49The screen lit up with a hotel video of him and his secretary.
00:34:53How do you have that?
00:34:56So, do you still want me to fill out that form?
00:34:59No need.
00:35:01I took back my phone and walked in on my heels.
00:35:04So this was their idea of a welcome.
00:35:06Not bad.
00:35:07At least it was enough for a warm-up.
00:35:13Emma, from today on, you'll work on projects with me.
00:35:18Okay.
00:35:19She looked at me with triumph dripping from her eyes.
00:35:23This time, the partner is Crescent Capital.
00:35:27Emma, you'll handle it.
00:35:33Half an hour later, the partner representative arrived.
00:35:38Sorry.
00:35:39For this project, we only negotiate with Miss Haley Morgan.
00:35:44What?
00:35:45Didn't you hear him?
00:35:46This project was introduced by Pioneer Group.
00:35:50I only recognize Haley.
00:35:53Emmeline's face stiffened instantly.
00:35:56Frankie's face turned dark as burned metal.
00:36:02The partner only recognized me.
00:36:05Every one of Frankie's calculations shattered on the spot.
00:36:10He looked at me like he was grinding his teeth into dust.
00:36:13You take over this project.
00:36:16Now you remember me?
00:36:19Don't push it.
00:36:21Push it?
00:36:22Weren't you the one saying someone like me doesn't belong in Morgan Group?
00:36:27And now the project is stuck in your hands.
00:36:30And now the project is stuck in your hands.
00:36:30You sure know how to change your attitude fast.
00:36:32Frankie Morgan.
00:36:34Either you let Haley take over.
00:36:37Or this partnership is over.
00:36:39Frankie's face changed again and again.
00:36:41You want me to take over?
00:36:43Fine.
00:36:45Beg me.
00:36:46You.
00:36:46Everyone in the room was looking at him.
00:36:48The proud Morgan heir had been forced into a corner by me for the first time.
00:36:52A few seconds later, Frankie dropped to his knees with a thud.
00:36:56Please, please.
00:36:59I looked down at him and finally smiled.
00:37:01This was only the beginning.
00:37:05I thought Caden taking my side and shielding me in public was already insane enough.
00:37:09Then the very next day he dragged me straight to the marriage register.
00:37:12You're actually serious?
00:37:13Weren't you the one who said you wanted to marry me first?
00:37:15I said contract marriage.
00:37:17Marriage is still marriage.
00:37:18He said it with that cold face of his, yet somehow it sounded more domineering than anything else.
00:37:24Please fill in the form.
00:37:25I'm no you to the swick.
00:37:27He looked down at me as I signed my name, his gaze dark and hot.
00:37:32All done?
00:37:33Congratulations.
00:37:34One marriage certificate and we were tied together for real.
00:37:40Caden, say darling.
00:37:42Don't push your luck.
00:37:43But the line of his jaw tightened for a very obvious reason.
00:37:48Interesting.
00:37:50This man's words were ice cold, but his reactions were far more honest.
00:37:57On the same day we got married, I hadn't even finished processing the fact that I was now married.
00:38:01Then Walter, Caden's grandfather, suddenly showed up.
00:38:04I'm staying here tonight.
00:38:06That suddenly?
00:38:07What, not welcoming an old man like me?
00:38:09I glanced at Caden.
00:38:11He looked calm enough.
00:38:12But I quickly found out why he was so calm.
00:38:15Since you're legally married now, don't sleep in separate rooms.
00:38:18I'll personally make sure of that tonight.
00:38:22Great.
00:38:24Straight to sharing a bed.
00:38:29Faster than I'd expected.
00:38:34That night, I came out of the shower wearing nothing but a towel.
00:38:41Caden looked up at exactly the wrong moment.
00:38:45What?
00:38:46Mr. Evans, you've never seen a woman before?
00:38:53Be quiet.
00:38:54Go to sleep.
00:38:59He turned his eyes away too fast.
00:39:02Fast enough to make it obvious he was hiding something.
00:39:14Your heart beats a little fast.
00:39:17You're too noisy.
00:39:19I haven't even moved.
00:39:21Your breathing is noisy too.
00:39:24The next morning, Walter saw the matching rings on our fingers immediately.
00:39:30Good.
00:39:31You finally look like a married couple.
00:39:36The old man left satisfied.
00:39:41The second the door closed, Caden transferred money to me.
00:39:45One hundred million?
00:39:48What's this for?
00:39:49Your performance fee.
00:39:51Performance?
00:39:52I walked toward him slowly.
00:39:56Caden?
00:39:58Which one of us do you think was performing harder last night?
00:40:02He looked at me, and his gaze deepened instantly.
00:40:07Money is the safest kind of relationship.
00:40:09I was starting to want more than money from him.
00:40:14Late at night, Caden was asleep.
00:40:18But I opened my laptop and kept digging into the crash from four years ago.
00:40:25In prison, I learned more than just how to fight.
00:40:29Data can overturn a case too.
00:40:31I pulled up old surveillance, call logs, and shell numbers, page after page.
00:40:43Finally, one broken line connected.
00:40:46Before she died, Dahlia had been in contact with a shell number.
00:41:12The one who truly shaded that crash had been hiding behind the curtain all along.
00:41:21The truth you're after is finally starting to show its face.
00:41:31Darren, you finally showed yourself.
00:41:35The next morning, Caden pinned we against the study door.
00:41:40How did you get that lead?
00:41:43Let go, first.
00:41:46Answer me.
00:41:48Didn't you already know I have a lot of secrets?
00:41:51His voice was low, but the pressure was heavier than usual.
00:41:55Haley.
00:41:58How much more are you hiding?
00:42:00Enough to make sure you can't walk away from me.
00:42:03So the man you suspect is Darren.
00:42:06My uncle.
00:42:08The one who's hidden himself best all these years,
00:42:11and the one most capable of this.
00:42:14Not suspect.
00:42:16He's the most likely.
00:42:20The blurred footage,
00:42:21the shell number,
00:42:23the edge of scene shot.
00:42:26They all point to him.
00:42:28But we're still missing the final cut.
00:42:30The proof that nails him.
00:42:33Then from today on,
00:42:35Darren
00:42:36is target number one.
00:42:44After dealing with the company
00:42:46and the crash investigation,
00:42:47I went to Melina's jewelry boutique.
00:42:51Years ago,
00:42:52she was my best friend.
00:42:56So you finally decided to come see me.
00:42:59I've been busy getting married
00:43:01and ruining people's lives.
00:43:04Sounds like you're doing just fine.
00:43:09I had just smiled
00:43:10when several people walked in.
00:43:16Well, if it isn't prison girl Haley.
00:43:18So you can afford jewelry stores now?
00:43:26Get out.
00:43:28And who do you think you are?
00:43:35Why do people never learn?
00:43:37The second she said it,
00:43:39the bodyguards behind her
00:43:40started toward me.
00:43:42Move.
00:43:45I reached up and caught his wrist.
00:43:47The next second,
00:43:48his whole body slammed into the floor.
00:44:03Less than 10 seconds.
00:44:05All down.
00:44:06The store went silent again.
00:44:12Good.
00:44:13I liked this kind of silence.
00:44:16Silence.
00:44:17Silence.
00:44:21The bodyguards were all on the floor.
00:44:25Karen and Paula finally started to fear.
00:44:28How dare you?
00:44:31Melina stepped out
00:44:32from behind the counter in high shoes.
00:44:34She wore black today,
00:44:36sharp as a blade.
00:44:38Have you still not figured out
00:44:39whose place this is?
00:44:42It's just a jewelry stop.
00:44:45Just a jewelry stop?
00:44:47She smiled.
00:44:50Then she reached up
00:44:51and turned on the full lighting.
00:44:54The entire store lit up like a palace.
00:45:00Elysian Gems.
00:45:02I built it for Hayley.
00:45:04Every piece of jewelry here
00:45:06belongs to her.
00:45:09What?
00:45:10What?
00:45:12Karen's legs nearly gave out beneath her.
00:45:15No!
00:45:17No!
00:45:17No!
00:45:17They had come to humiliate me.
00:45:21Instead,
00:45:22they found out
00:45:23they couldn't afford
00:45:24even one diamond in this store.
00:45:27I'm sorry.
00:45:30Say it on your knees.
00:45:32And they actually did.
00:45:37I looked down at them
00:45:38and barely felt a thing.
00:45:40Opponents at this level
00:45:41were no longer worth my anger.
00:45:49As Karen and Paula knelt on the floor,
00:45:51the boutique doors opened again.
00:45:55I turned around and saw Kayden.
00:45:58Perfect timing.
00:46:00At last,
00:46:02the starlight rings have found someone worthy.
00:46:07The diamonds were cold like starlight.
00:46:11The diamonds were cold like starlight.
00:46:11Hayley, this one is yours.
00:46:12The other one can go on your husband's hand.
00:46:16Will you wear it?
00:46:18Why not?
00:46:19Why not?
00:46:29He took the ring and slid it onto my finger himself.
00:46:32Then I put the other one on him.
00:46:36The moment our hands locked together,
00:46:39everyone in the store went quiet.
00:46:41From this moment on,
00:46:44anyone who messes with her
00:46:46messes with me.
00:46:47I liked the way he protected me in public.
00:46:50And I liked how he was slowly becoming mine.
00:46:57Some people were protecting me loudly,
00:47:00which only made others more desperate to destroy me.
00:47:04And Emma Lan was the most desperate of them all.
00:47:08That day,
00:47:09I returned to the company
00:47:11and found the designs on my desk gone.
00:47:16Who entered my office?
00:47:18Oh, only Mrs. Morgan came by.
00:47:22Good.
00:47:23I turned around and went straight to find her.
00:47:28Hayley, what brings you here?
00:47:30Where are my design draughts?
00:47:34What design draughts?
00:47:36She acted very convincing.
00:47:38But I know her too well.
00:47:40The more innocent she looked,
00:47:41the more guilty she was.
00:47:43It didn't take long to find out where she'd sent them.
00:47:50Tyler.
00:47:53The Morgan family's arrogant third son.
00:47:55Emma, you're incredible.
00:47:57These designs are definitely award-worthy.
00:47:59On the screen,
00:48:00Emmeline smiled sweetly.
00:48:02On my side,
00:48:03my smile was colder.
00:48:07She stole from me again.
00:48:09Good.
00:48:12I loved watching thieves get caught.
00:48:16I had originally planned to deal with Emmeline first.
00:48:20But one phone call shattered every plan.
00:48:23Talk.
00:48:24My face darkened instantly.
00:48:28Where is she?
00:48:29The hospital.
00:48:31Her brother has her tied down.
00:48:32He's going to forcefully take her kidney for their grandfather.
00:48:40What happened?
00:48:41Melina's been taken.
00:48:42Someone thinks they can turn her into an organ bank while I'm still breathing.
00:48:46My voice stayed flat.
00:48:48But Caden looked at me,
00:48:49and his expression changed.
00:48:50Because he knew,
00:48:51the calmer I sound,
00:48:53the more I want blood.
00:48:55Get the car ready.
00:48:57And tell Thadmius to bring some men.
00:48:59I changed my clothes and turned to leave.
00:49:02Tonight,
00:49:03someone was going to regret hurting my bestie.
00:49:11The hospital corridor was long,
00:49:13and the light was blindingly white.
00:49:14I walked straight in with Thatteria's men behind me.
00:49:17Miss Morgan,
00:49:18my men are here.
00:49:19No one dared stop us.
00:49:20Because the look on my face explained everything.
00:49:23Guard every exit.
00:49:24No one leaves tonight.
00:49:37Caden walked beside me without saying a word.
00:49:40But the quieter he was,
00:49:41the more I knew he was holding back his anger.
00:49:44The room is at the end of the hall.
00:49:46Four bodyguards stood outside the room.
00:49:48I looked at them once,
00:49:49and they instinctively stepped back half a step.
00:49:52I walked forward with firm steps,
00:49:54and the frame advanced steadily
00:49:56toward the four bodyguards at the door,
00:49:58keeping pace with me.
00:50:04You can't.
00:50:11On the hospital bed,
00:50:13Melina was tied down.
00:50:14Her wrists were rubbed raw and bloody as paper and constant.
00:50:18In that instant,
00:50:19I truly wanted blood.
00:50:23The room smelled of antiseptic.
00:50:26So,
00:50:27you finally made it.
00:50:29And another smell that disgusted me.
00:50:32The smell of family.
00:50:34She's our family.
00:50:35He stood by the bed like he was looking at merchandise.
00:50:39What's wrong with her giving up a kidney?
00:50:41I stood there so furious,
00:50:43I actually smiled.
00:50:46You dare say the word family?
00:50:48You're an outsider.
00:50:50Stay out of our family business.
00:50:52Outsider.
00:50:54She was tied to a bed
00:50:55until the ropes rubbed her wrists raw.
00:50:58And you want to tell me
00:51:01this is family?
00:51:15I'm saving our grandpa.
00:51:17She grew up eating our food
00:51:20and using our money.
00:51:21Now it's her turn
00:51:22to repay the family.
00:51:30He was still talking about family.
00:51:33Disgusting.
00:51:35Family doesn't carve out her kidney
00:51:37to preserve your dignity.
00:51:38Who the hell are you-
00:51:43You dare hit me?
00:51:45Hit you?
00:51:46Tonight I'm doing more than that.
00:51:49I'm going to break you, physically.
00:51:51But Thaddeus' men were faster.
00:51:57Nobody move.
00:52:00Shut the door.
00:52:03You're all insane.
00:52:05This is a hospital.
00:52:07Yes.
00:52:08That's why I've been very restrained.
00:52:11I turn to look at Melina on the bed.
00:52:16Get up.
00:52:19Hit him back yourself.
00:52:26Melina's hands were shaking
00:52:27when the ropes were cut.
00:52:29But when she looked at her brother,
00:52:31her eyes slowly turned cold.
00:52:34Melina, don't be stupid.
00:52:37Melina, be stupid!
00:52:40I'm your brother!
00:52:42You don't deserve that title.
00:52:45This one is for treating me like an organ bank.
00:52:47This one is for weaponizing the word family against me.
00:52:51And this one
00:52:53is for every disgusting thing you thought you had the right to do.
00:52:57He was on his knees,
00:52:58his face already swollen.
00:53:00But I knew it still wasn't enough.
00:53:03Men like him don't learn from a little pain.
00:53:06They need to be broken.
00:53:10Melina was done.
00:53:11Now it was my turn.
00:53:13Too far,
00:53:13one of his wrists,
00:53:15broken.
00:53:16Everyone in the room was shocked by the scene.
00:53:20He screamed like he was dying.
00:53:23I switched to the other side.
00:53:25Hayley!
00:53:26Please!
00:53:27Please!
00:53:29Too late.
00:53:31This is the price for tying her down.
00:53:33If there is ever a next time,
00:53:36it won't be your wrists I break.
00:53:39Everyone in the room inhaled sharply.
00:53:41The other second one broke too.
00:53:42This is the price for tying her down.
00:53:45Tonight,
00:53:45I had already been merciful.
00:53:49We had barely finished at the hospital
00:53:51when someone else stirred up trouble.
00:53:53The International Jewelry Design Competition
00:53:56released its finalist list.
00:53:58And the name on the list wasn't mine.
00:54:01Dad!
00:54:02Mom!
00:54:03I made the finals!
00:54:05My daughter is incredible!
00:54:10I knew you would never disappoint us.
00:54:19I stared at the finalist list list
00:54:21and slowly smiled.
00:54:24I knew those sketches better than anyone
00:54:26because they were mine.
00:54:29She had become addicted to stealing from me.
00:54:32This time,
00:54:33she stole her way onto an international stage.
00:54:37Want me to expose her?
00:54:38Of course.
00:54:40And this time,
00:54:41I want the whole world to watch.
00:54:46I opened my laptop.
00:54:48It was time for an old account of mine to return.
00:55:01I could even type that account and password blindfolded.
00:55:07So you're finally willing to reveal that identity?
00:55:10She's gone too far.
00:55:13I need to remind her who she's messing with.
00:55:16I logged into the backhound and pulled up the original upload logs.
00:55:20Time stamps,
00:55:22hand sketches,
00:55:23source files,
00:55:23revision trails.
00:55:28Send everything to the competition committee.
00:55:35The plagiarist is going to face consequences.
00:55:39That's exactly what she deserves.
00:55:43I leaned back in my chair and flexed my fingers.
00:56:02Thank you,
00:56:04everyone.
00:56:04I will use this collection to prove myself.
00:56:17We need to make an immediate announcement.
00:56:20There is a severe playsterism issue concerning one of the finalist entrants.
00:56:26The smile on Emelyn's face frozen instantly.
00:56:30The true original designer is not Emelyn Morgan.
00:56:34It is
00:56:36Star.
00:56:38No.
00:56:40Impossible.
00:56:41Star has provided full proof of original authorship.
00:56:48Effective immediately,
00:56:50Emelyn Morgan is disqualified from the finals.
00:56:53Every camera in the room swung towards her at once.
00:56:57She wanted fame so badly, didn't she?
00:57:01Well, now she had it.
00:57:04But only this time as a thief.
00:57:13By the time Emelyn fled back to the Morgan house from the press event,
00:57:17she was unraveling.
00:57:22Dad!
00:57:23Mom!
00:57:25Help me!
00:57:26Help me!
00:57:27Hayley, how can you be this cruel?
00:57:31Emma has suffered enough.
00:57:34You want me to withdraw the complaint?
00:57:39If you withdraw it, we'll do whatever you want.
00:57:44I pulled a document from my bag.
00:57:51Then sign this.
00:57:53What's this?
00:57:57All three of them froze.
00:58:00Sign it.
00:58:01And I withdraw the complaint.
00:58:03Haven't they always wanted to cut me out of the Morgan family?
00:58:07I would make their wish come true.
00:58:09When the severance agreement landed on the table, the whole living room fell silent.
00:58:16When the severance agreement landed on the table, the whole living room fell silent.
00:58:20Hayley, do you really have to go this far?
00:58:23Not me.
00:58:24You pushed us here first.
00:58:25You are still the Morgan family's daughter!
00:58:27So you still remember that?
00:58:29Too bad you only remember it when you need me.
00:58:31Carol's hands were shaking badly.
00:58:34But in the end, she still signed.
00:58:40Is this enough for you now?
00:58:44It's a start.
00:58:45I folded the agreement and put it away.
00:58:49In that moment, I was surprised by how little I felt.
00:58:53Maybe because I had already seen them clearly.
00:58:56They never deserved the word family.
00:59:03Haley!
00:59:04You ruined me!
00:59:10No.
00:59:11I only took back what was mine.
00:59:14I turned and walked away.
00:59:16This time, no one tried to stop me.
00:59:21From this moment on, the Morgan family had nothing to do with me anymore.
00:59:29I thought that after cutting ties, the Morgan family would finally give it a rest.
00:59:34Emmeline met with Darren's people.
00:59:36Late that night, I received an anonymous message.
00:59:41The project drafts on your laptop were tampered waiver.
00:59:44This wasn't a warning.
00:59:46It was a declaration of war.
00:59:49Caden's uncle, the one who had always hidden in the family's shadow.
00:59:54Darren.
00:59:55Also the man who profited most from the crash four years ago.
01:00:00Caden.
01:00:02Who sent it?
01:00:06One of my eyes inside Darren's circle.
01:00:10Darren has finally made his move.
01:00:13It's not that he finally moved.
01:00:15He's finally panicking.
01:00:18If he's cleaning up witnesses?
01:00:20Then it means what we found already hit a nerve.
01:00:26Darren wasn't a new enemy.
01:00:29He just couldn't stay hidden anymore.
01:00:32I've been waiting to drag him all the way out.
01:00:43Haley Morgan, you are suspected of commercial espionage and unlawful theft of corporate secrets.
01:00:49Are you insane?
01:00:51Who gave you the nerve?
01:00:53I didn't move.
01:00:55I only looked at the warrant in their hands.
01:00:58They took project drafts legaled from Morgan Group
01:01:01and made them look like they were sent from my laptop.
01:01:05A setup.
01:01:07And a rushed one.
01:01:09We need you to come with us.
01:01:13Fine.
01:01:15Just as I stepped forward, Caden arrived.
01:01:21Who dares take her?
01:01:23Mr. Evans, we are only following procedure.
01:01:26Then follow procedure.
01:01:31I'm bailing her out now.
01:01:34The room went silent.
01:01:38Commercial instragage is only the cover.
01:01:41What Darren really wants is to pin her down first.
01:01:44Darren wanted to send me back to prison again.
01:01:48Too bad this time.
01:01:50I wasn't alone.
01:01:55I was bailed out.
01:01:57I went straight back to the study.
01:01:59If Darren moved, it meant he was desperate.
01:02:02And desperate people make mistakes.
01:02:07How do you want to do this?
01:02:09Follow the money.
01:02:11I opened my laptop again.
01:02:14My Lido Blywis port.
01:02:16I tore through firewall after firewall.
01:02:19Encrypted email, burner numbers, cloud backups.
01:02:23And check Emmeline's recent communication backups.
01:02:27Found it.
01:02:28What?
01:02:29Not an old recording from four years ago.
01:02:32It's a cloud auto backup of one of their recent calls.
01:02:38They're still talking about that night?
01:02:40More than that.
01:02:41They were also discussing how to send you back to prison again.
01:02:47Play it.
01:02:49As long as Haley is finished, the Morgan family is still mine.
01:02:53This time.
01:02:55It wasn't suspicion anymore.
01:02:57She opened the door herself.
01:03:01You handled that car crash well four years ago.
01:03:04Haley went to prison.
01:03:06And Caden still hasn't found proof.
01:03:09But she's getting harder and harder to control.
01:03:12Then do what we did before.
01:03:14Put her into prison again.
01:03:16But Caden is still investigating his mother's death.
01:03:20Then this matter can never be exposed.
01:03:22Dead men tell no tales.
01:03:24She had to die for it.
01:03:25And now it still has to remain an accident.
01:03:29The recording stopped.
01:03:31Four years ago, I went to prison.
01:03:34Caden lost his mother.
01:03:36It was never an accident.
01:03:38It was murder.
01:03:39Now listen carefully.
01:03:41Darren was the mastermind.
01:03:44Dahlia drove the car.
01:03:46Emmeline made sure I took the fall.
01:03:49One carried it out.
01:03:50One cleaned it up and one profited from it.
01:03:53Not one of them is innocent.
01:04:09Why is the Evans family making such a spectacle tonight?
01:04:12And then we leave them into orange and something as bonner.
01:04:15I heard it has something to do with Darren.
01:04:19Nervous?
01:04:20No.
01:04:21I'm looking forward to it.
01:04:23The recording, money trail, and communication backups, I submitted all of them to the police
01:04:28last night.
01:04:29So tonight?
01:04:29Tonight is not about suspecting anyone.
01:04:32Downstairs, Darren was still smiling.
01:04:36Emmelan was there too.
01:04:40Tonight, I'd make sure everyone saw her true colors.
01:04:43It's time.
01:04:44He raised his hand, and the lights dimmed.
01:04:51Flamini would remember this night for a very long time.
01:05:00Thank you all for coming tonight.
01:05:02You are here tonight to hear something.
01:05:06Caden, what game are you playing now?
01:05:09You'll know soon enough.
01:05:11The recording began to play.
01:05:12She had to die back then.
01:05:14After the first segment, Darren's face changed.
01:05:17As long as Haley is finished, the Morgan family is still mine.
01:05:21Emmelan froze completely.
01:05:26Is this about the car crash from four years ago?
01:05:29So it wasn't an accident?
01:05:31It's fake!
01:05:32It's fabricated!
01:05:34Why are you panicking?
01:05:36There's more.
01:05:38The part you'll like even less.
01:05:43The second recording continued.
01:05:44The longer it played.
01:05:46Because now it was no longer speculation.
01:05:58When the recording ended, the banquet hall was silent, like a graveyard.
01:06:05In the next second, the police rushed in.
01:06:08Darren Evans, Emmalane Morgan, you are under investigation for conspiracy to commit murder, commercial fraud, and evidence fabrication.
01:06:14Come with us.
01:06:16No! No, Dad! Mom! Help me!
01:06:17Emma!
01:06:18This must be a misunderstanding!
01:06:19A misunderstandigo? When you sent me to prison, you didn't think that was a misunderstanding?
01:06:23Haley! I was wrong! I was really wrong!
01:06:26You weren't wrong. You were evil.
01:06:29Darren's face had gone white and drained of every last bit of composure.
01:06:33Four years ago, they pushed me into hell together.
01:06:35Four years later, I sent them in with my own hands.
01:06:38He stood to one side of the hall, all color drained of his face.
01:06:42All his composure was gone.
01:06:43His eyes widened in extreme shock and a cold sweat drop slowly trickled down from his temple, sliding across his
01:06:49stiff cheek.
01:06:49His expression gradually shifted from shock to complete collapse and despair.
01:06:54I was pushed towards the dark prison gate by the two of them.
01:06:56I was terrified.
01:06:58I opened my mouth to scream, but no sound came out.
01:07:01They betrayed me, and I will make them pay dearly.
01:07:05Four years ago, they pushed me into hell together.
01:07:37Four years ago, they pushed me into hell together.
01:07:38I raised my hand and threw a financial report in front of them.
01:07:44Take a look.
01:07:50What's this?
01:07:52The assets under your names.
01:07:54They are now all frozen under Morgan Group's authority.
01:07:58What?
01:08:05Didn't you want to save her?
01:08:10Too bad.
01:08:12You can't even save yourselves now.
01:08:18Emelan was in prison, Darren had fallen, and half the Morgan Empire had already collapsed.
01:08:29On that same day, Grandpa Clinton summoned me into the boardroom.
01:08:36Starting today, Morgan Cumprey is yours.
01:08:39The boardroom fell silent.
01:08:43Impossible!
01:08:44I am the heir to the Morgan family.
01:08:48You?
01:08:50Other than kneeling and begging Haley to save your projects, what have you actually accomplished?
01:08:57Frankie's face went white immediately.
01:09:03The next second, his vision went dark and he collapsed.
01:09:08Frankie!
01:09:11I looked at it all and only felt calm.
01:09:13Not triumph.
01:09:14Not pity either.
01:09:15Just one thing.
01:09:16It was finally my turn.
01:09:18Grandpa, I'll take Morgan Group.
01:09:22Good.
01:09:22In that moment, every eye in the boardroom changed.
01:09:26They no longer looked at me as a problem.
01:09:29They were looking at their new ruler.
01:09:34On the day of the wedding, the sky was clear and bright.
01:09:38Much brighter than the day I walked out of prison.
01:09:41And for the first time, I stood in the center of a crowd, not to fight back, but to walk
01:09:48toward one man.
01:09:49How is the wedding dress?
01:09:52Perfect.
01:09:55Melina made this dress for me herself.
01:09:59Clean.
01:10:00Sharp.
01:10:01Just like me.
01:10:04At the end of the aisle, Caden was standing there.
01:10:08He looked at me with a softness I'd never seen in him before.
01:10:11Do you take Haley to be your lawfully wedded wife?
01:10:14I do.
01:10:15Do you take Caden to be your lawfully wedded husband?
01:10:18I do.
01:10:19When the ring slid onto my finger, I suddenly remembered what happened years ago.
01:10:24They pushed me into hell.
01:10:26They thought I would rot there forever.
01:10:29But they never understood.
01:10:30Hell would not destroy me.
01:10:33It would only forge me.
01:10:35After the wedding, I stood before the floor-to-ceiling window in the top office of Morgan Group.
01:10:39The whole flammely was beneath me.
01:10:41They pushed me into hell.
01:10:43But they didn't expect that hell forged a queen.
01:10:45From this day on, the lights of this city shine for me alone.
01:10:49So, what was the thing?
01:10:50The whole flammely is about.
01:10:51The whole flammely and the whole flammely and the whole flammely was beneath me.
01:10:53The whole flammely is here.
