00:00:14My name is Irene Burton. The man before me is Kagan Smith, my lover for three years, and the president
00:00:20of Smith Group.
00:00:24Tomorrow is my birthday. Does he remember?
00:00:36Irene, come to my place tomorrow.
00:00:43Paulina's coming tomorrow. She's not well. Cook something healthy for her.
00:00:46Paulina Moore, his true love. She just got back from overseas with her PhD.
00:00:51When will you end our relationship?
00:00:54You think you can leave me? Would your family agree?
00:00:57I'm just a substitute. Three years ago, my brother Sean sold to me him to clear gambling debts.
00:01:02That night, he whispered Paulina's name the whole time, but I still fell for him.
00:01:08Only an educated woman like Paulina deserves Kagan.
00:01:14Paulina, you're the only one in my heart.
00:01:18I'll go bathroom.
00:01:33I couldn't take it anymore. This was my only escape.
00:01:39Henry Shaw, a pilot. The man who wanted to marry me.
00:01:42The call fails. I leave a voicemail.
00:01:46Mr. Shaw, does that contractual marriage deal still work?
00:01:50I'm interested now.
00:01:56The rain is pouring, and I walk back to my apartment.
00:02:03No response from Henry.
00:02:05He must not be planning to agree, I guess.
00:02:15Irene, you ungrateful girl.
00:02:19Where's your money?
00:02:21Hand it all over!
00:02:23Tobias!
00:02:23How could it...
00:02:24Why is this drunken lunaturk here again?
00:02:26Your mother wouldn't have died in that crash
00:02:28if it wasn't for saving you!
00:02:31He raises his hand to slap me.
00:02:33I squeeze my eyes shut.
00:02:35Please! Somebody help me!
00:02:40The pain never comes.
00:02:42Instead, an agonized howl fills my ears.
00:02:44I open my eyes.
00:02:46A tall man has him by the throat.
00:02:49Henry?
00:02:50How is he here?
00:02:53You messed with the wrong person.
00:02:56Stay out of my sight.
00:02:58That face.
00:02:59Cold, sharp, devastatingly handsome.
00:03:02Are you hurt?
00:03:16Henry chases my father away and follows me to my apartment.
00:03:20He's soaked and takes off his shirt.
00:03:24Do you really want to marry me?
00:03:29He steps closer and corners me against the wall.
00:03:32I clench my draw and nod.
00:03:35It's my only way out from Canaan.
00:03:40Three years ago,
00:03:42Caden dined with Henry to break into aviation.
00:03:45Caden looked down on him.
00:03:53Henry asked for my number.
00:03:55Later I learned we were betrothed as children.
00:04:06After we marry, you'll play an affectionate wife in front of my mother.
00:04:09She's not well.
00:04:11She can't know the truth.
00:04:14He'll pay me $200,000 a month.
00:04:18I don't need the money.
00:04:20I'll find a job.
00:04:21Whatever you make is yours.
00:04:23What I give you is separate.
00:04:25I don't want your money because I want to keep my dignity.
00:04:28I don't want to feel like you're keeping me.
00:04:34Contract aside, you'll be my wife.
00:04:43I sign it.
00:04:46You have three days to settle your affairs.
00:04:49With a single stroke of the pen,
00:04:52my old life is over.
00:05:00Next day, I pack Caden's gifts.
00:05:03Henry's secretary, Callie arrives.
00:05:11Let's get you real stuff.
00:05:13She drags me to the mall.
00:05:21I freeze the moment I step inside.
00:05:26Caden and Paulina.
00:05:27She's in a wedding dress.
00:05:29He's right beside him.
00:05:33He's right beside him.
00:05:36Sure enough, he only has Paulina in his heart.
00:05:39He's only playing with me.
00:05:41I'm such a fool, aching for him.
00:05:43This shop is nice.
00:05:45I'll pick out a few pieces for you,
00:05:46and you can wander around too.
00:05:48Before I can hide,
00:05:50two women spot me.
00:05:52Medallin and Zoe,
00:05:53my classmates from med school.
00:05:56I used to outperform them,
00:05:58and they've held a grudge against me ever since.
00:06:00Hey, look who it is.
00:06:02Irene.
00:06:03Can't believe we'd run into you
00:06:04in a place like this.
00:06:06Do you know how much
00:06:06the cheapest wedding dress here costs?
00:06:09Over a hundred grand.
00:06:13Can you even afford that?
00:06:19Irene,
00:06:20did you come here out of vanity?
00:06:26I lift my head
00:06:28and look him in the eye.
00:06:29My salary won't cover it.
00:06:32But my rich fiancée.
00:06:37Paulina approaches me.
00:06:38My words makes Caden's face darken.
00:06:42Let me help you choose a wedding dress.
00:06:44No need.
00:06:47Callie pulls me into a fitting room
00:06:48and brings out a dress
00:06:49tailored to my measurements.
00:06:56I put it on and walk out.
00:06:58Everyone freezes.
00:06:59Especially Caden.
00:07:01His eyes are locked on me.
00:07:02He can't look away.
00:07:04Where's the shop owner?
00:07:05I never imagined a counterfeit dress
00:07:07could end up in a place like this.
00:07:09This is Vincent Gibson Couture.
00:07:12Miss Burton's fiancée ordered it.
00:07:14I'm stunned.
00:07:15Did Henry really arrange this in advance?
00:07:19Fine.
00:07:20You've lost me as a major client.
00:07:26Come on, Caden.
00:07:27Let's go.
00:07:28Paulina drags Caden away.
00:07:30A tall figure walks in.
00:07:35It's Henry.
00:07:37He walks straight toward me,
00:07:38stops behind me,
00:07:39and looks at me through the mirror.
00:07:46It looks good on you.
00:07:51I try to cover my breast.
00:07:53My skin tingled where his lips touched.
00:07:56Show it.
00:07:57I like it.
00:07:57He kisses my cheek,
00:07:59a warmth spreading through me
00:08:00that is both terrifying and thrilling.
00:08:07Henry puts an emerald necklace around my neck.
00:08:11It's been passed down in my family for generations.
00:08:16He takes me to meet his mother, Abby,
00:08:19who was an old friend of my mother's,
00:08:22and I've never met her before.
00:08:27Sorry, sir.
00:08:28The lady said she has other matters
00:08:29and has already left.
00:08:30Forever, it was stated that
00:08:32Miss Irene must spend the night
00:08:34in young Master Henry's room.
00:08:36I don't understand why Abby did this.
00:08:38Why, in a vast villa,
00:08:40she insisted I spend the night in Henry's room,
00:08:42and yet he didn't say a word.
00:08:45Henry comes out in a towel.
00:08:47I grip the blanket nervously.
00:08:56Hello?
00:08:57Where's Paulina's food?
00:09:00What are you doing?
00:09:03If you're curious what she's doing,
00:09:05keep listening.
00:09:07Irene, where are you?
00:09:11Are you crazy to be with a man?
00:09:14You stinking bitch!
00:09:16Caden's furious shout comes through.
00:09:18Then the line goes dead.
00:09:21You...
00:09:22Getting back at your ex turns you on.
00:09:25His words left me at a loss for words.
00:09:27What had just happened
00:09:29seemed to be nothing more than an illusion.
00:09:32Your body responded to my touch.
00:09:34Was that because getting revenge on Caden turned you on?
00:09:48Tonight, I tell myself not to get my hopes up about Henry.
00:09:53Later on, I learned Paulina kissed Caden that night,
00:09:56but he pushed her away
00:09:58because the person on his mind was me.
00:10:04Irene says she's getting married.
00:10:06A rich fiancé?
00:10:08She's just jealous of Miss Moore and puts on an act.
00:10:12When she crawls back to apologize,
00:10:15I'll teach her a lesson in bed.
00:10:17The next day,
00:10:18I go back to my apartment
00:10:20to pack up the last of my things.
00:10:25Sean shows up.
00:10:26He thinks Caden has arranged a new place for me.
00:10:30Mr. Smith is really good to you.
00:10:32Dad burged in here and caused a scene.
00:10:35Staying here isn't safe anymore.
00:10:39How did you know Dad came here?
00:10:41He panics.
00:10:42I realize he gave my address to our father.
00:10:45The betrayal was so absolute,
00:10:46it left me numb.
00:10:48He knew what our father would do to me.
00:10:49And he did it anyway.
00:10:52I grab my belongings
00:10:53and walk out without looking back.
00:11:12Where is Henry?
00:11:24The table is full of my mother's favorite treats.
00:11:28Your mom was tough and brilliant.
00:11:31Your cold-hearted family doesn't deserve her.
00:11:35She was so ahead of her time.
00:11:39Your health.
00:11:42I'm fine.
00:11:44The sick act is to push Henry
00:11:45to get me a daughter-in-law.
00:11:48You are the daughter loss he has got for me.
00:11:53This entire marriage was built on a lie
00:11:55to appease his mother.
00:12:02Abby, let's get you to bed.
00:12:05Let's get you to bed.
00:12:12Have you told Irene
00:12:13that you're the chubby kid
00:12:14she saved on the rooftop?
00:12:38This person knows everything about your mother.
00:12:41This person knows everything about your mother.
00:12:56She's Due to the L
00:12:57I didn't expect to run a recreation
00:12:57I didn't expect to run into the pool
00:12:59but in addition to the pool
00:13:10I brought her out to this city
00:13:11on the floor
00:13:11and remembered
00:13:11to run into Kanan and Paulina again.
00:13:21A nutritionist like you wants to get on Dr. Gomez's team?
00:13:26I'm here to ask about my mother.
00:13:29Your mother's been dead for years.
00:13:31She was just a worthless housewife.
00:13:33Dr. Gomez wouldn't know someone like her.
00:13:42He could say anything about me, but not my mother.
00:13:49Kaden, shut up!
00:13:57Who's standing at my door insulting women?
00:14:00What family could function without what wives and mothers bring?
00:14:04Don't you have a mother?
00:14:23Your mother was a genius in medicine.
00:14:27But her work touched national security.
00:14:30I can't say more.
00:14:42Do you want to study medicine?
00:14:44Yes!
00:14:45I took your online test.
00:14:47Waiting for results.
00:14:52Results come out today.
00:14:53You can check them in the hall on the second floor.
00:15:24Irene?
00:15:25You're not seriously thinking about getting on Dr. Gomez's team, are you?
00:15:30She didn't even finish her bachelor's degree.
00:15:32This is a joke.
00:15:36Marvin, your mom is dead because of incompetent doctors.
00:15:40The kind who get hired through connections.
00:15:42Like her.
00:15:44People like you make me sick.
00:15:47I never in round effort as I you don't you her back to when...
00:16:11I think you can leave me?
00:16:39Final, final.
00:16:41Final, first place, Irene Burton.
00:16:59You make me sick.
00:17:05How could someone who didn't even finish college get first place?
00:17:09She cheated.
00:17:11Let's go through her exam papers together.
00:17:32Irene, listen.
00:17:34You'd better admit cheating right away.
00:17:45This plan, it hasn't even been published in the latest medical journals.
00:17:54With your mediocre abilities, how did you manage second place?
00:17:58Yes.
00:18:17You, how dare you say that?
00:18:26Do you want me to prove it?
00:18:28Or just admit you're the real cheater?
00:18:42Irene, show them what you've really got.
00:19:05A perfect solution.
00:19:08This is truly astonishing.
00:19:12Irene, welcome to my team.
00:19:15Henry stands a short distance away, the corner of his mouth slightly raised.
00:19:24Did you come here for the job?
00:19:27Or for Caden?
00:19:30I...
00:19:37I chase after him.
00:19:48He thinks I came for Canaan?
00:19:52I have a friend who might be able to help.
00:19:56Mr. Lloyd, could you introduce me to Ace?
00:20:00Ace doesn't do business with trash.
00:20:02Who are you calling trash?
00:20:10We need to split into two cars.
00:20:12How do you want to do it?
00:20:22Mr. Shaw, are you trying to get rejected by Irene for a second time?
00:20:48Irene, we're going the same way. Come with us.
00:21:01Are you kidding me?
00:21:20I'm going to study medicine.
00:21:25You're not, Miss Moore. You don't have what it takes.
00:21:50Kaden, I feel a little dizzy.
00:22:34Kaden, I feel a little dizzy.
00:22:49A hand smashes through the window and pulls me out.
00:22:54The next second, the car plunges off the cliff.
00:23:28Don't be afraid.
00:23:29It's me.
00:23:33You're safe now.
00:23:57My wife needs a doctor.
00:24:09She's not seriously hurt, but your arm needs immediate attention.
00:24:18Irene, can we make the Menardus head a turn?
00:24:20Yeah.
00:24:34Membership card required.
00:24:36What's your relationship to the cardholder?
00:24:42I'm his wife.
00:24:55Yes, that's my wife.
00:24:57Take good care of her.
00:25:03Irene, what do you go?
00:25:06Kaden, what do you talk is your life?
00:25:07Just stop here.
00:25:08Just stop here.
00:25:09Karen, maybe as you go, fur, lean up your Kaden.
00:25:12Why does she get to go in?
00:25:17Wait, wait, wait.
00:25:19Wait for where we got my ear?
00:25:20You don't wait.
00:25:20Let's conclude.
00:25:37What's with this bite, Mark?
00:25:39She bit me.
00:25:42Look, you two can have all the fun you want behind closed doors.
00:25:46Just show a little restraint, okay?
00:25:59Let me help you apply the ointment.
00:26:01Let me help you apply the ointment.
00:26:26The doctor advised against having sex recently.
00:26:29He stops and stares at me.
00:26:31His gaze is intense.
00:26:32Is that why you're rejecting me?
00:26:39Thanks for the medical advice, Dr. Burton.
00:27:01For days, Henry won't let me leave the house.
00:27:04Thanks for having me.
00:27:09Thanks for having me.
00:27:30Thanks for having me.
00:27:37Thanks for having me.
00:27:39Thanks for having me.
00:28:00Thanks for having me.
00:28:04I didn't say you could leave.
00:28:06I've already resigned from Smith Group.
00:28:08You have no authority over me.
00:28:19Paulina's on leave.
00:28:21You finish these for her.
00:28:27I was injured in that car accident, too.
00:28:30Kaylin left me in the car to die.
00:28:31Why don't you name in Absolute Winston Commedia for Porus?
00:28:36Why don't you ask him about that?
00:28:42Nonsense!
00:28:43There was no car accident!
00:28:53I'll call the police.
00:29:13Caden Smith, we've retrieved the traffic surveillance footage.
00:29:24Caden Smith, we've retrieved the traffic surveillance footage.
00:29:25Please cooperate with the investigation.
00:29:28Please cooperate with the investigation.
00:29:51Please cooperate with the investigation.
00:29:52How?
00:29:54How?
00:29:56How?
00:29:56How?
00:29:56Caden is fined $300,000.
00:30:00You're standing here just fine!
00:30:03You're standing here just fine!
00:30:23I'll go.
00:30:24I'll go.
00:30:25I can never let you go!
00:30:46It's so hot!
00:30:55I see him
00:30:59Calm, composed, and resolute will
00:31:02He is so strong
00:31:03Everyone, please remain calm and cooperate with the medical staff
00:31:09He seems a little different
00:31:11Calm down, calm down, don't let him notice me
00:31:19He's here, I can keep going
00:31:24Handsome captain, calm judgment
00:31:42You're quite the actress
00:31:44First seducing Kayden
00:31:46Now playing model worker here
00:31:48The blood sample I just took was from the source of infection
00:31:51You came in without preventative medication?
00:32:01Irene!
00:32:03The artisan's healed?
00:32:04I know we've no way for you
00:32:05I know you bought it
00:32:06The collection tubes are sealed
00:32:10Where exactly did you earn that PhD?
00:32:26I've been locked up here all day
00:32:28What the hell are you people doing?
00:32:37I'm the captain of this flight, Henry Shaw
00:32:40If you have any complaints, take them up with me
00:32:45From start to finish, he doesn't look at me once
00:32:50Irene, let me take you to him
00:32:52Irene, let me take you to him
00:33:03Is me?
00:33:05It's from my graduation ceremony three years ago
00:33:24I'm sorry
00:33:25I snuck off to work
00:33:27We're both saving lives
00:33:29Why would I be angry about that?
00:33:36Then why have you been ignoring me?
00:33:42I thought you came here for Kayden
00:33:46You gave up medicine for him
00:33:51I thought you came back for him too
00:33:59It was impulsive
00:34:02Desperate
00:34:03And more real than anything I had ever felt
00:34:10Is Irene in there?
00:34:11I want to see who she's seducing this time
00:34:13Dr. Burton is our captain's fiance
00:34:16You want to interrupt them?
00:34:18Impossible
00:34:19She's a kept woman
00:34:32I'm Irene's fiance
00:34:34I will never stand in the way of her ambitions
00:34:41Your new guy is much better than the last one
00:34:59It's not a contagious disease
00:35:01It's snake venom
00:35:08I want to show some people what a wonderful fiance I've got
00:35:33What can this poor pilot give you
00:35:36If your mother were still alive
00:35:38If your mother were still alive
00:35:53I put up with you because I was stupid
00:35:56Now you're nothing to me
00:35:58I'm married
00:36:00From now on we're strangers
00:36:02Married?
00:36:04To this pilot?
00:36:13Kayden
00:36:14Unlock it
00:36:15This
00:36:16This
00:36:17Isn't my car
00:36:34What a joke
00:36:50The agreement with Irene will end soon
00:36:55Until then
00:36:56Don't cause trouble for me
00:36:57He wants to end the contract early
00:37:00All that tenderness
00:37:01All those kisses
00:37:05I was a fool to have believed any of it was real
00:37:17I'll sleep in the guest room
00:37:23I'll sleep in the guest room
00:37:24What did I do wrong?
00:37:31Help me put this on
00:37:40Not bad
00:37:53I don't love you anymore
00:37:55Irene's been off lately
00:37:57It's because Kayden keeps bothering her
00:38:01She hasn't let go yet
00:38:23When exactly will Ace see me?
00:38:35A broke pilot like you dares to come here?
00:38:40Ace doesn't do business with trash
00:38:55Pretending to be something it's not?
00:38:59Ace is definitely not like that
00:39:10I don't know.
00:39:32Kaelin didn't come?
00:39:33We broke up long ago.
00:39:36This is Sabrina, my girlfriend.
00:39:39She's family now.
00:39:44That necklace is pretty.
00:39:47Why don't you give it to me?
00:39:50No.
00:39:52It means a lot to me.
00:39:56You used to do whatever I said.
00:39:58It's just some damn necklace.
00:40:00Give it to her.
00:40:02I said no.
00:40:35Brody.
00:40:36He's one of Neil's sleazy crew.
00:40:39Caden dumped you.
00:40:41Stop acting all high and mighty.
00:40:43Have a few drinks with us.
00:40:54I'm Irene's husband.
00:40:56Anyone who lays a finger on her is going to regret it.
00:41:09Henry, this is a minder standing.
00:41:11Come on, boys.
00:41:13Apologize to my brother-in-law.
00:41:15What are your tension?
00:41:16Brother-in-law, he...
00:41:18Shut up!
00:41:20Waiter!
00:41:20Bring an 82 LaFont.
00:41:22My treat for my brother-in-law.
00:41:27Screaming Eagle.
00:41:29What the hell is that?
00:41:30Never heard of it.
00:41:32Who are you trying to fool?
00:41:33That's our most expensive wine.
00:41:34The bachelor party next door paid triple for it.
00:41:37Five times.
00:41:38Bring it back.
00:41:40Are you insane?
00:41:46What do I know I do?
00:41:48I want to try it, too.
00:41:57You?
00:41:58Enough?
00:41:59Or do you want more?
00:42:09We didn't order any of that.
00:42:14My fiancé and I only had one juice.
00:42:16This covers our share.
00:42:20Stop right there!
00:42:23You always paid before.
00:42:25You're supposed to support me.
00:42:26I was stupid before, letting you drain me dry.
00:42:30From today on, I won't do that.
00:42:33And the millions you owe me?
00:42:35Don't forget to pay me back.
00:42:37You told me you were loaded.
00:42:41Sabrina.
00:42:42She's lying.
00:42:43Let me explain.
00:42:45Get lost, loser.
00:43:10Let go of me.
00:43:12I'll tell Henry.
00:43:13You were a kept woman for three years.
00:43:15Let's see if he still marries you.
00:43:17Let's look and fuck to do it.
00:43:20Let's look and fuck to do it.
00:43:29You wouldn't dare.
00:43:31I'm your brother-in-law.
00:43:33Irene.
00:43:34Tell him to let me go.
00:43:36Take him to the police station.
00:43:43Henry.
00:43:45Henry.
00:43:45Help.
00:43:47Somebody help me.
00:43:51My family is so embarrassing.
00:43:55Those people aren't your family.
00:44:01Irene.
00:44:04I'll be your family.
00:44:06I'll be your family.
00:44:10Oh, baby.
00:44:12Love, love, love.
00:44:14You're the one I dream of.
00:44:18Holding you is so sweet.
00:44:23Oh, baby.
00:44:26Love, love, love.
00:44:29You're the one I dream of.
00:44:42Oh, isn't this the chick who used to cling to Kayden?
00:44:49Someone actually wants her?
00:44:59Are you insane?
00:45:01Shut up.
00:45:08See?
00:45:09I never read a single message you sent.
00:45:19Thank you for inviting me to a meal.
00:45:23You brought this broke pilot here just to provoke me, didn't you?
00:45:27Well done.
00:45:29It worked.
00:45:33I won't marry Paulina.
00:45:35I'll marry you.
00:45:38Come on.
00:45:39You are vain, arrogant, pitiful.
00:45:42What about you is worth my affection?
00:45:44What did you say?
00:45:46I dare you say that again!
00:45:57You hit me?
00:45:59I'll call the cops.
00:46:01You're a pilot.
00:46:02And a criminal record will get you fired.
00:46:17Don't you dare hit him!
00:46:19You two are crazy!
00:46:21If you truly love him, take him away.
00:46:24Don't let him embarrass himself any further in front of all these people.
00:46:27I'm not picking you.
00:46:31Well done.
00:46:38I'm with you.
00:46:39Thanks for joining us.
00:46:39I'll let you go.
00:46:40I'll let you go.
00:46:41I'll let you go.
00:46:46I'll let you go.
00:46:46I'll let you go.
00:46:51I'll let you go.
00:46:56I'll let you go.
00:47:04Henry, that car behind us.
00:47:09Can you lose them?
00:47:42Henry, you got married.
00:47:44Why haven't you brought your wife to see me?
00:47:48The Rogers' house is not my home.
00:47:52I will never bring Irene to that filthy, twisted place.
00:47:56Never.
00:48:01Shit.
00:48:06Henry!
00:48:24How can I protect Irene?
00:48:30I don't know what he's been through.
00:48:35But I can feel it.
00:48:37He's fighting to hold something down.
00:48:47Don't leave me, Irene.
00:48:49I love you.
00:49:10This is Professor Seth Chavry, a world authority in cardiovascular medicine.
00:49:17My latest paper?
00:49:24I haven't had a chance to read it yet.
00:49:26I've been swamped with lab work.
00:49:28I've been swamped with lab work.
00:49:28Nanothrangelization technology.
00:49:30Using nanorobots to dissolve blood clots directly inside vessels.
00:49:34Less trauma.
00:49:35More thorough removal.
00:49:36It's the future of cardiac care.
00:49:38Good.
00:49:39Good.
00:49:40Go on.
00:49:40Tell us more about the clinical trials.
00:49:42Irene.
00:49:43It's you again.
00:50:10It's you again.
00:50:12She stole it!
00:50:14She stole it!
00:50:18It wasn't me!
00:50:19I never touched it!
00:50:20A flicker of triumph crosses Paulina's face.
00:50:28Irene, tell me your improvement suggestions for the nanotechnology.
00:50:36I propose administering medication to speed up metabolism during throbolasis.
00:50:43Seth and Natalie then go into a small meeting room to discuss.
00:50:55Soon they walk out.
00:51:00Announces.
00:51:03This patent isn't mine.
00:51:10It belongs to Irene's mother, Vivian Dixon.
00:51:17The patent document appears on the big screen.
00:51:20The signature reads, Vivian Dixon.
00:51:22Filed 20 years ago.
00:51:24My mother's name.
00:51:26It feels like a ghost has just walked into the room, shielding me from harm.
00:51:32Your mother was the true inventor of nanothrogoliasis.
00:51:36She left it with me to give to you when you turned 24.
00:51:42Today, I decide to reveal it early.
00:51:47Impossible!
00:51:48Her mother's been dead for years!
00:51:52That makes her daughter the legal heir.
00:51:55Irene didn't steal anything.
00:51:59This was always hers.
00:52:07After everyone leaves, Seth stops me.
00:52:12Here's two million.
00:52:14First installment of the patent royalties.
00:52:16It belonged to your mother, and now it belongs to you.
00:52:19I invite you to study abroad as my graduate student.
00:52:26I... I can't go.
00:52:28I have an agreement with Henry.
00:52:30Take it.
00:52:33Your mother wanted you financially independent, so no one could ever push you around.
00:52:43I walk out of Seth's office.
00:52:46At the end of the hallway, a tall figure leans against the wall.
00:52:50Henry.
00:52:51Henry.
00:52:52My heart skips a beat.
00:52:54Just seeing him there makes me feel safe again.
00:53:01He yanks me into his arms and holds me tight.
00:53:04I believed you were innocent.
00:53:06Tears stream down my face.
00:53:09When everyone else doubts me, only he believes me.
00:53:19Anyone who hurt you isn't going to get away with it.
00:53:31This case is closed.
00:53:33Fingerprints are processed.
00:53:34Irene.
00:53:35Stay out of trouble from now on.
00:53:49Closed?
00:53:50I wasn't informed.
00:53:51Who are you?
00:53:56Kevin Fletcher.
00:53:58Attorney for Miss Irene Burton.
00:54:06The shift in the room's atmosphere is immediate.
00:54:09Warren's arrogance deflates like a popped balloon.
00:54:17Every word of your abuse of power just now.
00:54:20I recorded it.
00:54:22Wanna listen?
00:54:33Paulina!
00:54:34She told me to come!
00:54:38Paulina!
00:54:39She told me to come!
00:54:40Paulina!
00:54:41Paulina!
00:54:47Miss Moore, you owe Miss Burton an apology.
00:54:50Paulina's face twists.
00:54:52She grits her teeth and walks up to me.
00:55:05I'm sorry.
00:55:07I accept your apology.
00:55:09But you're not escaping the legal consequences.
00:55:13I'm not!
00:55:15You won my fault!
00:55:16Green!
00:55:19You!
00:55:26Following Paulina's orders, Madeline locks herself in the lab and threatens suicide.
00:55:41Will you only be satisfied when someone dies?
00:55:44Irene!
00:55:45If you don't drop the case, I'll die in here!
00:55:47I'll take the whole lab with me!
00:55:50I remember what Henry said.
00:55:52Put yourself first.
00:55:58I won't drop the case.
00:56:00If she wants to die, that's her choice.
00:56:02I won't give in.
00:56:04Are you insane?!
00:56:07I'm stalking it for you or not!
00:56:09Get out!
00:56:13How dare you threaten my student.
00:56:16My students need not only skill, but also backbone.
00:56:19Irene made the right choice today.
00:56:25She told me to do it!
00:56:27Everything was her idea!
00:56:38The two start brawling, pulling hair, slapping faces.
00:56:41The scene spirals completely out of control.
00:56:50At the end of the hallway, a man stands holding roses, Kaelin.
00:56:54He came to propose.
00:57:14Kaelin looks at Paulina, who's fighting like a shrew.
00:57:22How dare you?
00:57:27Kaden!
00:57:28It's not what it looks like.
00:57:29Let me explain.
00:57:31Paulina.
00:57:33What are you doing?
00:57:35The woman I chased for 10 years?
00:57:39Is like this?
00:57:42I turn and walk away.
00:57:47Kaden chases after me
00:57:54I don't want to watch this farce anymore
00:57:59I reach the stair hole when I hear footsteps behind me
00:58:05I was wrong
00:58:07I see what Paulina really is now
00:58:10Come back to me
00:58:12I'll marry you
00:58:19I'm so sorry, Irene
00:58:20His words are hollow
00:58:22He doesn't love me
00:58:24He just loves the idea of me he created
00:58:27I pull down my collar and reveal the massive bruises on my shoulder
00:58:31A hundred times worse than Paulina's injuries
00:58:34This is what your true love and her lackey did to me
00:58:42And you still think I'd come back to you?
00:58:53Kaden's face goes pale
00:58:56He looks like someone just hit him
00:59:04A woman walks over from the other end of the hallway
00:59:07Gianna Chavez, Seth's daughter
00:59:08It was Paulina who threatened me and made me steal my father's USB drive
00:59:12Gianna, how could you?
00:59:13Shut up!
00:59:14You nearly got me into serious trouble!
00:59:16Gianna walks up to me and suddenly bows
00:59:20Mrs. Burton, I'm sorry
00:59:23Paulina deceived me
00:59:24Please forgive me
00:59:26I notice her eyes keep darting behind me
00:59:29She's looking at Henry
00:59:30Her gaze is full of terror
00:59:32It's not remorse in her eyes, it's fear
00:59:35And it's directed entirely at Henry
00:59:41Gianna, why do you keep looking at my fiancé?
00:59:49I'm not
00:59:52Gianna, are you afraid of my fiancé?
01:00:04No!
01:00:05Why would I be afraid of him?
01:00:07He's just a pilot
01:00:09Her voice shakes
01:00:11She refuses to look at me
01:00:17Her panic is obvious
01:00:19I don't press further
01:00:23But a seed of doubt is planted in my mind
01:00:27I see Henry and Gianna go into a lounge
01:00:29One after the other
01:00:35I quietly follow
01:00:42Through the crack in the door
01:00:44I see Gianna bowing to Henry
01:00:48Ace, please spare me
01:00:51I truly didn't know Miss Burton was your fiancé
01:00:56If you dare hurt her again
01:00:58I'll make sure you pay for it
01:01:01Ace
01:01:02She called him Ace
01:01:05The name echoes in my head
01:01:07The pieces of a puzzle I never knew existed
01:01:10Are clicking into place
01:01:13My mind goes blank
01:01:17Henry Shaw
01:01:18Ace
01:01:20They're the same person
01:01:21The door suddenly opens
01:01:24Henry stands before me
01:01:26A flicker of panic in his eyes
01:01:30Irene
01:01:31Irene
01:01:37So you're Ace
01:01:42I can explain
01:01:47He doesn't deny it
01:01:58You hid it from me
01:02:00All this time
01:02:02Was it fun for you
01:02:03Hiding who you really are
01:02:05And keeping me in the dark
01:02:14Irene, please hear me out
01:02:16Irene, please hear me out
01:02:18Let go
01:02:44Don't you have questions for me?
01:02:51The contract says we stay out of each other's personal business
01:02:54I have nothing to ask
01:03:00To hell with the contract!
01:03:06Irene, can't you see what I really want?
01:03:29Is this what you want?
01:03:32I'll give myself to you
01:03:47The sound of the slamming door feels like a final verdict on us
01:03:50I've pushed him away
01:03:54I collapse on the bed
01:03:56Tears streaming down uncontrollably
01:03:59I'm done for
01:04:01I've really fallen in love with him
01:04:24Dude, it's 1 a.m.
01:04:26What now?
01:04:28She asked what I want
01:04:29Then started unbuttoning her shirt
01:04:32And then
01:04:37I left
01:04:38Are you insane?
01:04:40That's not what I want
01:04:45All I want is for
01:04:47Her to really accept me
01:04:54If you like her
01:04:55Just tell her the truth
01:04:58Why do you keep her in the dark like this?
01:05:07I can't
01:05:15Every time I look into her eyes
01:05:17I'm afraid telling her the truth
01:05:19Will push her even further away
01:05:27I text Frazier
01:05:29I want to thank Ace in person
01:05:34Frazier replies instantly
01:05:36Tonight, 7 p.m.
01:05:38Rosewood Steakhouse
01:05:39Ace will meet you
01:05:42The whole place is reserved
01:05:44A violinist plays my favorite song
01:05:48The walls are covered with posters
01:05:51From my favorite movies
01:05:53Every detail is perfect
01:06:10Henry?
01:06:11Didn't you want to meet Ace?
01:06:17So
01:06:18It really is you?
01:06:20Three years ago
01:06:21I proposed to you as Ace
01:06:22You refused
01:06:23This time
01:06:24I'm asking again as Henry
01:06:30No contract
01:06:31Irene Burton
01:06:33Will you marry me?
01:06:37Will you marry me?
01:06:37Yes
01:06:41Jill
01:06:42Will you marry me?
01:06:48Will you marry me?
01:06:49Will you marry me?
01:06:52Will you marry me?
01:06:53Will you marry me?
01:06:53And he wants to be
01:06:54Do you marry me?
01:07:03many
01:07:04Henry slides the ring onto my finger, then stands up and kisses me.
01:07:20Who arranged all this?
01:07:25Me.
01:07:27Got a problem?
01:07:28A broke pilot like you can afford to book a place like this?
01:07:34Who told you I'm just a pilot?
01:07:37Henry slap a black business card down on the table.
01:07:41Only one word is on it.
01:07:43Ace.
01:07:44Impossible.
01:07:45I've been desperate to meet Ace for so long.
01:07:48How could it be you?
01:07:51That's why I told you from the start.
01:07:54Ace doesn't do business with trash.
01:07:57As Caden is dragged out by security, he looks back and sees me cugging Henry tight.
01:08:04In that moment, I feel a chapter of my life finally, truly closing.
01:08:23Who told you I'm putting on an act?
01:08:26What's wrong with me hugging my own fiancé?
01:08:34Finally!
01:08:35Do you know how long I've been playing messenger?
01:08:39Shut up.
01:08:43After the celebration, Henry takes me home.
01:08:59Irene, this time it's not a contract.
01:09:04I knew it.
01:09:09I don't care who you are.
01:09:11Henry or Ace.
01:09:15As long as it's you,
01:09:17I'll marry you.
01:09:19All lies and secrets no longer matter.
01:09:22Only the man before me counts.
01:09:25His hand tightens around mine.
01:09:29The way he looks at me is so gentle.
01:09:32It melts me right there.
01:09:33Every man.
01:09:38Yes.
01:09:39We're gonna tip to it.
01:09:41We'll be right.
01:09:55I don't know.
01:10:28Kaden, what's wrong?
01:10:35Go away.
01:10:37You?
01:10:38If not for you, I wouldn't have lost Irene.
01:10:40If not for you, Ace would already be my partner.
01:10:43It's all your fault!
01:10:45You just can't think that way.
01:10:46I've been wondering when I'm gone and fought away.
01:10:49You'll be dressed like the old dick set.
01:10:52I finally left the past behind me.
01:11:03Seth invites me to attend an international medical summit abroad, but...
01:11:10You should go.
01:11:12I'll go with you.
01:11:16The data shows a significant breakthrough in targeted therapy.
01:11:28Your research approach, exactly like Vivian's.
01:11:35You knew my mother?
01:11:37She was my student.
01:11:39The best one.
01:11:40He's Professor Hoffman White, Nobel Prize laureate.
01:11:44I've kept her research notes all this time.
01:11:46She said, if one day her daughter chooses medicine, give them to her.
01:11:56To my beloved daughter, Irene, mom is always proud of you.
01:12:06It feels like she's right here with me.
01:12:08Her love reaching across the years.
01:12:16After the speech, he shared an unexpected piece of news with me.
01:12:23Your mother's death was not an accident.
01:12:28What are you saying?
01:12:30I'll get to the bottom of this.
01:12:34The file shows that at the time of the accident, my father, Tobias, had just paid off a huge gambling
01:12:40debt.
01:12:52The timing of your father's death and your mother's accident, only three days apart.
01:13:00How is that possible?
01:13:07He killed my mom?
01:13:13Not just him.
01:13:16To pay off that much money all at once, someone was behind it.
01:13:28I'm going to find my father.
01:13:30I'm going to ask him to sell.
01:13:36He must give me an explanation.
01:13:53Irene, where's the money?
01:13:55Give me money.
01:13:55Did you have anything to do with mom's accident?
01:14:04What nonsense are you talking?
01:14:06It was an accident.
01:14:09Your gambling debts were paid off the day after the accident.
01:14:12Where did the money came from?
01:14:18Tell me.
01:14:19They threatened me.
01:14:20Said they'd kill the whole family if I didn't do it.
01:14:24I just cut the brake line a little.
01:14:30I didn't mean to kill her.
01:14:34You killed my mother.
01:14:35You killed her.
01:14:38I didn't mean to kill her.
01:14:38I'm sorry.
01:14:40I didn't mean to kill her.
01:14:40I don't know.
01:14:41Yeah.
01:15:00I'm sorry.
01:15:03I did, uh.
01:15:03I didn't mean to kill her if I could Leah misses you and do it.
01:15:03If you with me, I had me rather.
01:15:04Go on.
01:15:09I think you should take me along.
01:15:13Who was behind it?
01:15:19Kiana Rogers.
01:15:22Henry's grandmother.
01:15:25What?
01:15:34How can it be?
01:15:36So that's it.
01:15:38My mother left the Rogers family with me back then.
01:15:42It wasn't about family infighting.
01:15:45It was because she knew the truth.
01:15:47Your mother's research threatened the Rogers family's pharmaceutical business.
01:15:59I'm coming in back to the family estate.
01:16:12Welcome.
01:16:15So you're that woman's daughter.
01:16:17You do resemble her somewhat.
01:16:20Twenty years ago, Vivian Dixon's car accident.
01:16:24You orchestrated it.
01:16:31Do you have proof?
01:16:35Who was behind it?
01:16:37Kiana Rogers.
01:16:39Henry's grandmother.
01:16:43How can you take a gambler's word as evidence?
01:16:48Then explain this.
01:16:51I've already handed over 30 years of Rogers family financial records to the police.
01:17:01I've already handed over 30 years of Rogers family financial records to the police.
01:17:08Money laundering, bribery, murder.
01:17:11Enough to keep you in prison for life.
01:17:15You will pay the price for what you have done.
01:17:19Are you insane?
01:17:21I'm your grandmother!
01:17:23From the day you tried to harm my mother, you weren't family anymore.
01:17:38You're mother got what she deserved.
01:17:43Then you will be the same way.
01:17:46Take her away.
01:17:47Yes, sir.
01:17:53The Rogers family empire, a name synonymous with power and wealth for decades, is in free fall.
01:18:09I barely slept all night.
01:18:12Kiana's words kept echoing in my mind.
01:18:15Your mother got what she deserved.
01:18:19Then you will be the same way.
01:18:23Mom, the people who killed you have been punished.
01:18:27I got your patent approved.
01:18:30The drug is named Vivian.
01:18:33I'll carry on your dream for you.
01:18:47Your biological father is still alive.
01:18:51What did you say?
01:18:52His name is Victor Gray.
01:18:54Your mother's research partner back then.
01:19:01My dad is still alive?
01:19:07Yes.
01:19:17Three days later, the doorbell rings.
01:19:29I open the door.
01:19:40Are you?
01:19:42I'm Victor Gray.
01:19:43Your mother's research partner.
01:19:47He doesn't say father.
01:19:48But I can tell.
01:19:50He is my father.
01:19:53Those eyes are just like mine.
01:19:59Dad.
01:20:09I'm sorry.
01:20:11Sorry to your mother.
01:20:14I should have come back sooner.
01:20:17It's okay.
01:20:18You're back now.
01:20:21That's all that matters.
01:20:25He holds me tight.
01:20:33Victor stays with us.
01:20:35He opens the last chapter of my mother's research notes.
01:20:41Vivian had a concept back then.
01:20:44Jean targeted therapy.
01:20:45But she didn't have time to finish it.
01:20:53Let's finish it together, dad.
01:20:59Three years later, the Gray Shaw Medical Research Center is established.
01:21:08Jean targeted drugs enter clinical trials.
01:21:11The first batch of patients saw their tumors shrink by 70%.
01:21:15At the press conference, I announced to the world that the drug had achieved great success.
01:21:21Dr. Burton, what's the name of this drug?
01:21:28I look down at the audience.
01:21:31Henry sits in the front row.
01:21:33Victor sits beside him.
01:21:35They both nod at me at the same time.
01:21:38Seeing them there, my two families united, I feel a sense of purpose I've never known.
01:21:48Vivian.
01:21:52Named after my mother.
01:22:01The research center is on track.
01:22:21Why is Henry crying?
01:22:29You're pregnant.
01:22:33I'm pregnant.
01:22:35Pregnant.
01:22:37A new life.
01:22:39A new beginning after so much loss.
01:22:44It feels like a miracle.
01:22:48From now on, you're not allowed in the lab.
01:22:51No overtime.
01:22:52No touching any reagents.
01:22:54I'll take care of you.
01:22:59Henry.
01:23:02Please.
01:23:03I look into his serious eyes and nod.
01:23:12I have severe morning sickness.
01:23:17Henry cooks for me every day.
01:23:19Henry cooks for me.
01:23:24Come on.
01:23:37I'm starving.
01:23:40It's a steady way.
01:23:41If you've got an answer.
01:23:46I think he's healthy.
01:23:49The fourth time, he brings out a bowl chicken soup.
01:23:53I take a sip and don't throw up.
01:23:56You didn't throw up!
01:23:59His eyes light up like a child who just won a prize.
01:24:14As the due date approaches, I'm too nervous to sleep.
01:24:18I often read parenting books in the middle of the night and I'm worried that I can't take good care
01:24:24of Irene.
01:24:37I watch him from the corner of my eye, my heart overflowing with a quiet, profound love.
01:24:43I'm sure I love him very much.
01:25:03How come it's been eight hours and the baby hasn't been born yet, Ed?
01:25:12She's here. Mother and daughter are both safe.
01:25:26Does it hurt?
01:25:29Of course.
01:25:46She looks like you.
01:25:48We hold a party to celebrate the baby's one-month milestone.
01:25:52The house is full of people.
01:25:55I watch them, tears in my eyes.
01:25:58The family warmth I never had.
01:26:00My daughter has it all.
01:26:07What are you thinking?
01:26:10Thank you for giving me a home.
01:26:13It's a home we built together.
01:26:18Outside the window, the sunset paints the sky gold.
01:26:2430,000 feet above, he used to be alone.
01:26:28Now, he has me.
01:26:30He has our daughter.
01:26:32My past was a storm, but he was my anchor.
01:26:36Now, we have our own sky, clear and full of light.
01:26:39With that.
01:26:40Yeah.
01:26:42Hungry-
