00:00:02I've been this man's mistress for five years.

00:00:05I loved him, but he only saw me as a substitute.

00:00:08I don't regret it, because those five years of humility were the debt I owed him.

00:00:18Elena's back in the country. Just landed. You need to leave this villa.

00:00:22Now?

00:00:23Immediately. Clean up any trace of you having lived here. I don't want her to know you slept here.

00:00:28Okay.

00:00:30Elena is back. My days as the substitute are finally over. I'm finally free.

00:00:36In our freshman year, both Elena and I were poor students living on scholarships.

00:00:41But with that innocent face of hers, she became the goddess of every man on campus,

00:00:46including the heir to a top-tier family, Logan.

00:00:49Elena, come to the Grammy Awards with me. Seats like these aren't something you can just buy with money.

00:00:54Sorry, I need to go to the library to study. Mr. Logan, your money can buy everything,

00:00:59but it can't buy my respect.

00:01:05You're broke too, right? Help me win her over. If she falls for me, I'll fund you.

00:01:10I knew Elena was just playing hard to get, but my father was hospitalized,

00:01:13and I was even about to drop out of school because of it.

00:01:15So I desperately needed that money to save him.

00:01:18Deal.

00:01:18Elena got a top-tier university offer to Cambridge funded by Logan,

00:01:23and I, I became her substitute, Logan's caged canory.

00:01:31They think I've been discarded, that I'll become the laughing-ass dang of the world.

00:01:41Miss Ava, Lucas, the chief of Operation Liberty Finance,

00:01:44been waiting for you for three hours, ready to sign the contract with you.

00:01:50Okay.

00:01:52Actually, the life that truly belongs to me is just beginning.

00:01:56Having broken free from the shackles of the debt of gratitude,

00:01:59I will become the queen of this world.

00:02:08Ava, it's been five years.

00:02:11Our CEO has been waiting for you to say yes.

00:02:14I'll book you a first-class ticket right now.

00:02:19Alright, I'll head over now.

00:02:22Give me one more week.

00:02:24I still have some loose ends to tie up.

00:02:27You are a born queen of commerce.

00:02:29We await your leadership to make us a legend on Wall Street.

00:02:33Boss, great news.

00:02:35Ava signed.

00:02:36That genius girl who once ruled Wall Street is coming.

00:02:39Five years.

00:02:41I can finally see my light again.

00:02:49Ava, you're too slow.

00:02:50Can't you see Elena's hands are red from the shopping bags?

00:02:54Ava, I'm so sorry.

00:02:55These are just too heavy.

00:02:56I have to trouble you with them?

00:02:58It's no trouble at all.

00:02:59Happy to help.

00:03:00By the way, I found a woman's hair tie in Logan's bedroom.

00:03:03It wouldn't be yours, would it?

00:03:05Elena, don't talk nonsense.

00:03:07That was left by the cleaning staff.

00:03:09Ava moved out.

00:03:10After you left, how could she possibly be in my bedroom?

00:03:13Just kidding.

00:03:14Look how nervous you are.

00:03:16Justing Remichin.

00:03:17Ava, go line up for that limited edition item for us.

00:03:20Hurry up.

00:03:21Ava, Elena is quite conservative.

00:03:23I don't want her to hear any gossip about these five years.

00:03:26Trying to boyfriend meaty so Aina won't suspect anything.

00:03:29Fine.

00:03:29I'll find a suitable Divergen.

00:03:34His real princess has returned.

00:03:36It's time for this substitute to exit Eisrump, his world.

00:03:43Sorry, I just got off the phone with an international headhunter.

00:03:47All the big companies want to pojic me.

00:03:49Of course they do.

00:03:50Here, try this.

00:03:52It's all your favorites.

00:03:54Ava, why aren't you touching your cutlery?

00:03:56This seafood was flown in fresh.

00:03:58It's very expensive.

00:03:59I'm not hungry.

00:04:00Oh, I remember now.

00:04:02You're allergic to seafood?

00:04:03Logan, should we change restaurants?

00:04:05No need.

00:04:06She said she's not hungry.

00:04:07He knows perfectly well I'm allergic to seafood,

00:04:10and he knows Elena chose this place on purpose.

00:04:12It seems he doesn't care about my feelings at all.

00:04:15Ava, I invited a few old classmates tonight welcome Elena back.

00:04:18She missed your home-cooked meals.

00:04:20Go back to the villa tonight and prepare you a feast.

00:04:22All right.

00:04:23Logan, Ava is, after all, the group's executive president.

00:04:26Isn't it inappropriate to her cook like a maid?

00:04:28What's inappropriate about it?

00:04:29Everything she has today is thanks to my support.

00:04:32As long as I ask, she wouldn't dare say no.

00:04:34Right, Ava?

00:04:35Yes, Mr. Logan.

00:04:47Logan, are you serious?

00:04:49Ava's been with you for five years, and you're really gonna kick her out?

00:04:52Who said I was in a relationship with her?

00:04:55She was just a stand-in for Elena.

00:04:58Don't show anything in front of Elena.

00:04:59She's proud.

00:05:00She knew I used Ava as a substitute.

00:05:01She did feel insult.

00:05:02You're so devoted.

00:05:03You've had your eyes on Elena since college.

00:05:05But honestly, Ava is incredibly capable.

00:05:07Not only did she manage her company flawlessly, but she was also obedient in bed.

00:05:10Are you really willing to let her go?

00:05:11The passenger seat in my life is reserved only for a real princess.

00:05:15As for Ava, she's not worthy.

00:05:19Ava?

00:05:20What are you doing standing at the door with the fruit platter spacing out?

00:05:32Oh my god, was Ava at the door just now?

00:05:35Did she hear everything we said about her being cheap?

00:05:38So what if she did?

00:05:39Does she dare to get angry?

00:05:41Unless she wants to go back to the slums and beg for food.

00:05:45Mmm, so sweet.

00:05:47Logan, this personal assistant you keep really is better at cutting fruit than the hired help outside.

00:05:52Everyone thinks I'll break down, but I'm actually more cling-headed than anyone.

00:05:55In these five years, he never gave me love.

00:05:57And I, in turn, never truly gave him my heart.

00:06:01The fruit platter is ready.

00:06:03The main course will be served shortly.

00:06:05She clearly heard those words herds just now,

00:06:07way so much she have any reaction at all.

00:06:09Doesn't she care?

00:06:10Logan, we're partying here while the executive vice president is busy alone in the kitchen.

00:06:14Isn't that a bit too much?

00:06:16This is what she's supposed to do.

00:06:18Let's keep playing.

00:06:20Ava, you've worked hard.

00:06:22Come join us and eat.

00:06:25I'm not hungry.

00:06:27Enjoy yourselves.

00:06:29Don't mind her.

00:06:30Let's toast to celebrate Elena's return home.

00:06:33Elena, you're our goddess.

00:06:35This drink is to wish you a triumphant entry into the Vanderbilt Group upon your return and a brilliant future.

00:06:40I, I'm allergic to alcohol.

00:06:42I really can't drink something that's strong.

00:06:44Old classmate, that's not very considerate, is it?

00:06:47You have to at least make a gesture.

00:06:49Elena is delicate and can't handle this kind of thing.

00:06:52Ava, come here and drink it for her.

00:06:55Fine.

00:07:04Logan, you're spoiling Elena too much.

00:07:06Anyone who toasts her, you make Ava take the hit?

00:07:09Ava has a high tolerance.

00:07:11A little of this strong liquor won't hurt her.

00:07:13Then I have to toast the goddess too.

00:07:15Ava, cheers.

00:07:16Everything is about to end.

00:07:18In these last few days with Logan, I won't refuse any request you make.

00:07:24Ava, thank you for your hard work.

00:07:26I really wouldn't know what to do without you.

00:07:28So, even someone as arrogant and self-hortant as Logan can be tender-hearted.

00:07:32It's a pity that the one who helps in the proms will never be me.

00:07:40I don't like hearing those classmates linking you with Ava, even if she's just a substitute.

00:07:45Baby, my heart is yours.

00:07:47Ava is just our servant.

00:07:50You had a few glasses of champagne.

00:07:52Are you feeling dizzy?

00:07:53Don't be jealous for no reason.

00:07:55I've already declared to everyone that you are the future mistress of the group.

00:07:59I'll forgive you this time.

00:08:01Ava, you are really drunk.

00:08:03Let Logan drive you back to your apartment.

00:08:04No need.

00:08:05I can walk by myself.

00:08:07I have important business to attend to.

00:08:09Take a taxi yourself.

00:08:10Ava, don't make me think you can't even take care of yourself.

00:08:32Ava, didn't I tell you to find a man as a shield immediately?

00:08:35Why is there still no movement?

00:08:37I just finished being forced to drink by you, Mr. Logan.

00:08:41Don't play the victim with me.

00:08:44You're dragging your feet.

00:08:46Are you still holding on to some unrealistic fantasy about me?

00:08:53I didn't, Mr. Logan.

00:08:54Don't worry.

00:08:55I'll find one soon.

00:08:56Don't lie.

00:08:57Elena is starting to suspect us.

00:08:59I won't allow you to tarnish the pure love between her and me.

00:09:03Don't worry.

00:09:04One more week, and I'll disappear completely from your world.

00:09:09So eager to jump into someone else's arms.

00:09:12That shield better be a decent one.

00:09:14Don't embarrass me.

00:09:24You told me to find one?

00:09:26You're so obedient, it's disgusting.

00:09:30Logan, I miss you.

00:09:31Can I move into your villa tomorrow?

00:09:33Of course, baby.

00:09:35My room is always waiting for you.

00:09:39Pick me and Elena up at 8 tomorrow morning to go to the company.

00:09:46What are your plans after returning?

00:09:48Where do you want to go?

00:09:49I want to help you with the Vandeboe Group.

00:09:51I don't want to be just a freeloader.

00:09:53Good.

00:09:54I'll give you a surprise later.

00:09:56I want the whole world to know who the real mistress of this company is.

00:10:00Actually, I got a top-tier master's in finance abroad just to help you.

00:10:05We're here.

00:10:06Darling, it's my first day.

00:10:08We should keep our distance.

00:10:09I don't want people saying I got the job through connections.

00:10:11That wouldn't be noble.

00:10:13See?

00:10:14She's still as pure and independent as she was in college.

00:10:17Newman nowadays will do anything to climb the ladder.

00:10:19From a simple general and her considered it, maybe she's the only one.

00:10:23Notify the board.

00:10:24We're having an all-hands executive meeting in 10 minutes.

00:10:26I have major per-personnel changes.

00:10:28All right.

00:10:29I'll take care of it right away.

00:10:34I heard there will be a major personnel announcement today.

00:10:36Ava doubled the company's performance,

00:10:38so she's definitely getting promoted to co-CEO at the headquarters.

00:10:41Naturally.

00:10:41Vanderbilt Group has relied entirely on Ava for the past five years.

00:10:44Based on merit, it has to be her.

00:10:46Ava, don't forget about us when you get promoted.

00:10:48Actually, I was just about to...

00:10:51Only one thing will be announced today.

00:10:55Regarding the appointment of the former executive vice president, Ava.

00:10:58Congratulations.

00:10:59Is Ava being transferred to the New York headquarters as CEO?

00:11:02No.

00:11:03I announce Ava is hereby relieved of her position as executive vice president and demoted to vice president's assistant.

00:11:11What?

00:11:12Demoted instead of promoted?

00:11:13To an assistant?

00:11:14Mr. Logan, Ava generated a billion dollars in profit for the company last year.

00:11:18And the person taking over the vice president position is a financial genius we just recruited from Cambridge.

00:11:23Miss Elena.

00:11:25Hello, everyone.

00:11:27Although I lack practical experience, I believe my international perspective is more suited to leading the company to a higher

00:11:32level.

00:11:32This is absurd. Replacing a meritorious vice president with an inexperienced rookie?

00:11:36Enough. Who is the master of this company?

00:11:39My word is the command.

00:11:41Ava, as an assistant, you'd better do your utmost to help Elena familiar herself with business.

00:11:47If she makes the slightest mistake, I'll hold you couple.

00:11:50Okay.

00:11:52Ava, are you crazy? This is too humiliating.

00:11:56I have never objected to Mr. Logan's decisions.

00:11:58Vice President Elena, please follow me to your office.

00:12:01Then I'll trouble you, Assistant Ava.

00:12:04This is your office.

00:12:05Assistant Ava, there's a bit of dust on the tip of my shoe.

00:12:09Since you were so skilled at serving Logan before now, clean it for me too.

00:12:18Is Elena crazy?

00:12:19She's actually making Ava clean her shoes?

00:12:21This is a downright insult to her dignity.

00:12:23Don't be impulsive.

00:12:24APA must have her reasons for doing this.

00:12:28Oh my God, Ava's really kneeling down to clean them?

00:12:31This is absurd.

00:12:32Ava, I'm warning you.

00:12:34Back then it was because of me that Logan even gave you a second glance.

00:12:37Without me, you'd still be washing dishes in the slums.

00:12:40It's thanks to my face that you've climbed to where you are today.

00:12:43Does it hurt?

00:12:44Remember this feeling of lowiness.

00:12:46You're nothing but a dog I've graciously allowed to exist.

00:12:49Don't even think about overstepping your bounds and don't you dare try to seduce my Logan.

00:12:54Don't worry, Elena.

00:12:55I'm very clear about my place in Mr. Logan's heart.

00:12:58I've never coveted things that don't belong to me.

00:13:00Stubborn words are useless.

00:13:03Honey, want to go see a movie tonight?

00:13:04There's a new project at Universal Studios.

00:13:06I'll wait for you.

00:13:07Okay, see you then.

00:13:08You already have a boyfriend?

00:13:10Logan, I have good news for you.

00:13:12Ava has a boyfriend.

00:13:13I thought she had a crush on you all along.

00:13:14It seems I was overthinking it.

00:13:15I think you've misunderstood.

00:13:16The relationship between me and President Logan is purely one of sponsorship and employment.

00:13:20I've never had any appropriate thoughts.

00:13:22For and over, I love my boyfriend very much.

00:13:24Damn it.

00:13:25I just told her last night to find a male companion, and she's already found one today.

00:13:29Is there really not an angle place for me in her heart?

00:13:31Perfect.

00:13:32In a few days, there's a company team-building event to celebrate my appointment.

00:13:35Ava, bring your nonpoing along.

00:13:36Let's see you just huck stranding the man who Chunkeramon or New Jillian Drenrys.

00:13:40Yes, I'm also him curious.

00:13:41Ava, bring him long then.

00:13:43No problem.

00:13:43Mr. Logan, we have an appointment with Mr. Grant from Grant Financial Group to sign the contract.

00:13:48It's the most important order of the year.

00:13:49Elena, this deal is crucial for the company's IPO.

00:13:52We must secure it.

00:13:53Don't worry, darling.

00:13:54With my overseas background, I guarantee we'll nail the negotiation beautifully.

00:13:59Mr. Grant, this is Ms. Elena, the company's new vice president.

00:14:02She is fully responsible for today's contract renewal negotiation.

00:14:05What?

00:14:05I remember Grant Financial's business has always been handled by you.

00:14:08Who is this administrative rookie?

00:14:10Mr. Grant, Ava is now just my assistant.

00:14:12The future of Vandert Group is controlled by elites like me with an international vision.

00:14:17Please sign.

00:14:18I hope your abilities are as impressive as your academic credentials.

00:14:21What are you looking at?

00:14:22Pervert, you're actually peeking at me.

00:14:25What nonsense are you talking about?

00:14:26I'm reading the 12th clause about compensating...

00:14:28Stop pretending.

00:14:30I've seen plenty of self-righteous men like you.

00:14:32It's disgusting.

00:14:33Don't think just because you're rich you can casually harass women.

00:14:37You dare hit me?

00:14:38I'm hitting you, you pervert.

00:14:39I'll use Logan's connections to ruin your reputation in New York.

00:14:42Vandert Group letting a paranoid lunark like this be vice president means bankruptcy is just around the corner.

00:14:46The deal is off, and I will withdraw all funding from Grant Financial.

00:14:49Mr. Grant, this is a misunderstanding.

00:14:51Please let me explain.

00:14:52Ava, I pity you, wasting your talent in this garbage dump.

00:14:55Vandert Group is finished.

00:14:59Elena, if you've destroyed company's most important changing...

00:15:01It's just some disgusting man who can't control his eyes.

00:15:04What's the big deal?

00:15:05Logan will handle it.

00:15:14Why are you dressed like this?

00:15:25Can you pretend to be my boyfriend for one night?

00:15:28The pay is $3,000.

00:15:33Don't worry, sis.

00:15:34I'm a professional.

00:15:35I guarantee I'll make your colleagues stare.

00:15:38Remember, talk less later.

00:15:40Don't give us away.

00:15:41Don't worry.

00:15:41I'm certified in playing the affectionate puppy dog type.

00:15:47Wow, Ava.

00:15:48This couldn't be your Mr. Right, could it?

00:15:50That outfit is terrifying.

00:15:52Little brother, what high position do you hold?

00:15:54Hello, sis.

00:15:55I'm the hottest face blogger on the entire internet.

00:15:57Search for Gritz Aquos to find me.

00:15:59Remember to follow and send me a sports car.

00:16:00Logan, your former vice president's taste is truly unique.

00:16:03But then again, this kind of influencer who lives off their looks is a perfect match for her status.

00:16:08Ava, I never thought your taste was this poor, that you'd stoop so low as to hire such a cheap

00:16:12performer.

00:16:13Why not?

00:16:14In my heart, he's much more genuine than those hypocritical elites.

00:16:19True.

00:16:20Bottom feeders love this kind of influencer the most.

00:16:23By the way, all the guests have arrived.

00:16:25Didn't you say you had a special welcome back gift for me?

00:16:28Hey, I haven't even started showing off my acting skills yet.

00:16:31Why did they leave?

00:16:32Enough.

00:16:33Your job is done.

00:16:34The final payment has been sent.

00:16:36Go.

00:16:36Thanks, sponsor sis.

00:16:45Lena, this is a welcome gift to celebrate your official entry into the Vanderbilt Group.

00:16:50Oh!

00:16:51Darling, it's so beautiful.

00:16:53It's perfect.

00:16:57Ava, does this Rolex look good with my skin tone?

00:17:03It does.

00:17:07If it weren't for paying off that astronomical debt for my family, I wouldn't have sold myself to Logan.

00:17:13I could have had the purest love too, right?

00:17:26Miss Ava, tomorrow is the day you officially take over as CEO of Liberty Financial.

00:17:31Mr. Liam and I are both waiting for you.

00:17:34Don't worry.

00:17:34I'll be there on time tomorrow.

00:17:36The contract is signed and I won't break it.

00:17:39Excellent.

00:17:40We are very much looking forward to your leadership.

00:17:42The time for farewell has finally come.

00:17:44Logan, thank you for the financial support back then, for saving my critically ill mother,

00:17:49and for giving me a foothold in this cold city.

00:17:51Thank you for giving me the dream of a rebirth, even though I knew that in your heart,

00:17:55I would always be just a humble shadow.

00:17:57I heard you're the poorest student who needs money the most.

00:18:00Help me win over Elena, and I'll fund you through college.

00:18:06Elena, don't leave me.

00:18:09For these five years, I've dutifully served as his substitute,

00:18:13accompanying him through his darkest hours.

00:18:16In my heart, you were once an unreachable star, but I'm tired.

00:18:19Goodbye, my former obsession.

00:18:21Goodbye, my shattered youth.

00:18:23Chairman Logan,

00:18:26this glass,

00:18:27I toast to you.

00:18:28Thank you for all your care over the years.

00:18:31Today I'd like to talk to you about my-

00:18:32Chairman,

00:18:33it's terrible.

00:18:34Grant Financial just formally issued a legal letter,

00:18:36announcing a complete withdrawal of investment,

00:18:38and suing us for a bridge of contract.

00:18:39The company's stock price has already hit the limit down.

00:18:46Chairman,

00:18:47something terrible has happened.

00:18:49Grant Financial has not only dominated all cooperation,

00:18:52but has also joined forces with the four major investment banks on Wall Street

00:18:55to launch a comprehensive blockade against us.

00:18:58How is that possible?

00:19:00Grant has been our staunch ally for five years.

00:19:02Why would they suddenly turn against us?

00:19:04On the day of the signing,

00:19:06Vice President Elena maliciously speculated that Chairman Grant was peeping at her,

00:19:09and even slapped him in public.

00:19:11He insulted me first!

00:19:12He was staring at my chest!

00:19:14I was just defending my dignity as a woman!

00:19:16Ava,

00:19:17I told you to assist Elena.

00:19:18Are you dead?

00:19:19Grant Financial is the source of half of our company's funding.

00:19:22Don't you understand the consequences of offending such a giant?

00:19:25If you had stopped this foolish behavior in time,

00:19:27how could things have got this rotten?

00:19:29Chair not.

00:19:30Miseva tried her best to stop it,

00:19:31and even demanded Elena apologize immediately.

00:19:33It was Elena who wouldn't listen,

00:19:35and even threatened Miseva.

00:19:36That's right.

00:19:37If Miss Ava hadn't intervened,

00:19:38Elena would have probably torn the other party to shreds

00:19:40right there in the conference room.

00:19:42Ava!

00:19:44Even if she stopped you,

00:19:45couldn't you have called me directly?

00:19:46Where is your professionalism?

00:19:47You actually concealed such a catastrophic disaster

00:19:49and didn't report it.

00:19:50Chairman,

00:19:51President Amba was about to report it at the time,

00:19:53but Vice President Elena said she would communicate with you personally.

00:19:57It seems she didn't mention a single word.

00:19:58Honey,

00:19:59I just wanted to find the right time to explain.

00:20:01I didn't know that man would be so petty.

00:20:02Chairman,

00:20:03the board of directors at headquarters demands you return for a meeting immediately.

00:20:06They hope you gives a German a reasonable explanation.

00:20:10Ava,

00:20:10come with me.

00:20:19Elena just joined Vanderbilt Group.

00:20:21She is my chosen future wife,

00:20:22and her record absolutely cannot have any blemish.

00:20:26So,

00:20:27you plan to make me the scapegoat?

00:20:29I will personally submit a report to the board.

00:20:31It will state that it was your overstepping and probation

00:20:33that angered Mr. Grant and led to the withdrawal of funds.

00:20:36Don't worry.

00:20:37Once the dust settles,

00:20:39I'll find a way to bring you back.

00:20:40Making me take the bullet for him again.

00:20:42In these five years,

00:20:43how many messes have I cleaned up for him?

00:20:45How many times I've been the fall guy?

00:20:47Logan,

00:20:47how can you be so at ease without even a seal of quills?

00:20:51Logan,

00:20:52one should be responsible for one's own actions.

00:20:54If Ava isn't reeling,

00:20:56just let me resign and take the blame.

00:20:58I don't want to see you in a difficult position because of me.

00:21:01Ava,

00:21:01do you really need me to beg you?

00:21:03You handled taking the fall so perfectly before.

00:21:05Why are you acting so unwilling in front of Elena?

00:21:07Don't you know your stubbornness now is destroying all our hard work?

00:21:14Fine.

00:21:15This one last time.

00:21:17I'll take the bullet for you one last time.

00:21:20Why did she agree so readily?

00:21:22Why is she leaving so decisively this time?

00:21:25Could it be,

00:21:26I really went too far?

00:21:27Darling,

00:21:27stop thinking about that assistant.

00:21:29She took your money.

00:21:30It's her honor to take the fall for me.

00:21:31Today is my first celebration after joining the company.

00:21:34Don't keep the executives waiting.

00:21:35What are you feeling guilty about?

00:21:37Ava is just a dog.

00:21:39Even if she occasionally gets upset,

00:21:41long you give her some luxury goods.

00:21:43She like little Grie Chan-y at your foot.

00:21:45That's your runt.

00:21:47Let's go.

00:21:48Tonight,

00:21:48you are the only star.

00:21:56What are you doing here?

00:21:57Mr. Grant,

00:21:58I am here on behalf of the group to formally apologize to you.

00:22:02To Vice President Elena,

00:22:03and to the glory that awaits us.

00:22:05Congratulations, Elena.

00:22:07Cheers!

00:22:07Get out with your chief apology!

00:22:09Tell Logan to kneel before me himself,

00:22:12or this isn't over!

00:22:17In New York,

00:22:18no one dares to touch Grant's face.

00:22:19You want to make peace?

00:22:21Dream on.

00:22:22Mr. Grant,

00:22:22I take full responsibility for this matter.

00:22:24As long as you can calm down,

00:22:26we are willing to bear all responsibility

00:22:27and provide compensation.

00:22:29To calm me down,

00:22:30sure.

00:22:30If you drink all of these,

00:22:32I'll consider withdrawing the lawyer's letter.

00:22:34Fine.

00:22:34Wait a minute.

00:22:35Since you're taking the blame for someone else,

00:22:37you should at least have the posture of begging,

00:22:39right?

00:22:40Drink on your knee.

00:22:41That's right.

00:22:41In this city of New York,

00:22:43no one who asks Grant for a favor

00:22:45does it standing up.

00:22:47What?

00:22:48Can't stand the humiliation?

00:22:50Then get out.

00:23:11Elena,

00:23:12the future of the Vanderbilt group

00:23:13depends on you

00:23:14to lead us to new heights.

00:23:16Congratulations, Miss Elena,

00:23:18on securing your throne.

00:23:19Cheers.

00:23:24I wonder if that woman Ava

00:23:26can get Grant's letter of understanding.

00:23:50Oh, my God!

00:23:52Ava just released a public statement.

00:23:54She announced she takes full responsibility

00:23:56for the Grant withdrawal incident

00:23:57and is formally resigning.

00:24:01Resigning?

00:24:03She dares to resign?

00:24:05Ava!

00:24:06What the hell are you trying to do?

00:24:08Who gave you permission

00:24:09to leave me at a time like this?

00:24:11Why is Logan losing control like this

00:24:13just because Ava resigned?

00:24:14That look in his eyes.

00:24:15He's never shown it to me.

00:24:17Could it be he still loves Ava?

00:24:22You're funding back then

00:24:23allowed me to finish college.

00:24:25You truly were the only beam of light

00:24:27in the darkest night of my life.

00:24:29Over these five years,

00:24:30I've made you profits a hundredfold.

00:24:32All my savings are in this card.

00:24:34Enough to offset all your benedulency

00:24:36from back then.

00:24:37Goodbye forever, Logan.

00:24:43Ava, these reports must be redone

00:24:45before the end of the day today.

00:24:47Also, go to that Michelin-starred restaurant

00:24:48at Moon and queue up

00:24:49to make a reservation for me.

00:24:50Logan likes their truffles.

00:24:51You can keep this garbage

00:24:52and chew on it yourself.

00:24:54As for making a reservation,

00:24:55if you're not so useless

00:24:56that your legs are broken,

00:24:58go roll over there yourself.

00:25:00I'm no longer an employee here.

00:25:01You have no right to order me around.

00:25:03Ava, where do you get the nerve

00:25:04to talk to me like that?

00:25:05Without me,

00:25:06you're not even fit

00:25:07to shine Logan's shoes.

00:25:08Since you want to get lost,

00:25:09get lost far away.

00:25:10Disappear from New York completely

00:25:11and don't come back

00:25:12wagging your tail like a stray dog.

00:25:14Elena, you've played the part

00:25:15of that pure money-disdaining

00:25:17white moonlight very successfully.

00:25:18But remember,

00:25:19a play is just a play.

00:25:20When Logan discovers the rot

00:25:21beneath that skin of yours,

00:25:22I hope you can still smile so brightly.

00:25:35Chairman, the accounts are settled.

00:25:38Thank you for the hell

00:25:39you've given me all these years.

00:25:41It's made me invincible.

00:25:52Ava, you really left?

00:25:56How dare she leave

00:25:57without my permission?

00:26:01Ava, I'll use all my votes

00:26:03on the board to keep you.

00:26:04I haven't approved

00:26:05this resignation report yet.

00:26:06Get back to the company right now.

00:26:09Chairman Logan,

00:26:10there's no need.

00:26:11The nature of this withdrawal incident

00:26:12is extremely severe.

00:26:14Vanderbilt Group must give

00:26:15the other party an explanation

00:26:16and I am the best scapegoat.

00:26:18You make a good point.

00:26:19Let's ride out this storm first.

00:26:20Once those old guys calm down,

00:26:22I'll bring you back.

00:26:23Also, take that black card

00:26:25on the table.

00:26:25It's your compensation.

00:26:27I never intended for you

00:26:28to pay back that tuition money.

00:26:29Chairman, I don't like owing debts

00:26:31and I especially don't like

00:26:32owing favors.

00:26:33The money in that card

00:26:34was what you funded me

00:26:35with for university.

00:26:36I paid it all back to you.

00:26:38Ava, because I let Elena

00:26:39take your position

00:26:39and made you take the fall

00:26:41for her that you're unhappy?

00:26:42You have to understand

00:26:43my predicament.

00:26:44Elena just returned

00:26:45to the country.

00:26:45She needs a perfect resume

00:26:47to solidify her position

00:26:48in the company.

00:26:49Your abilities are known

00:26:50throughout New York.

00:26:51Even if you take this blame,

00:26:52it won't hurt

00:26:53your foundation at all.

00:26:54I'm not angry.

00:26:55In fact,

00:26:56I'm even grateful

00:26:56for taking this fall.

00:26:57It made me realize

00:26:58how liberating freedom feels.

00:27:00Where exactly

00:27:00are you planning to go?

00:27:01To a place

00:27:02where there's no more

00:27:03you and Elena.

00:27:04Isn't that what

00:27:05you've always wanted most?

00:27:07From now on,

00:27:08no one will stand

00:27:08in the way

00:27:09of your white mood line anymore.

00:27:11I...

00:27:11Ava, listen to me.

00:27:14The boarding announcement

00:27:15is on.

00:27:16Goodbye, Logan.

00:27:40Darling, I'm so happy today.

00:27:42We should celebrate

00:27:42being together.

00:27:43And why not invite Ava, too?

00:27:44All she's worked so hard

00:27:46all these years.

00:27:46She see our happiness

00:27:47with her own eyes.

00:28:55of your dreams.

00:28:56And I, too,

00:28:57have finally waited

00:28:58for my freedom.

00:29:07I'm also very happy

00:29:09to arrive in this

00:29:10new world.

00:29:42Alright,

00:29:43I'll give it my all.

00:29:51Ava,

00:29:53Elena has officially

00:29:54accepted my proposal.

00:29:55We're having a celebration

00:29:56party at the penthouse

00:29:58tonight.

00:29:58You should come.

00:29:59Elena said she wants

00:30:00you to witness

00:30:01our happiest moment

00:30:02with your own eyes.

00:30:04I won't be going.

00:30:06That kind of moment

00:30:06belongs only

00:30:07to the two of you.

00:30:08There's no need

00:30:09to share it

00:30:09with an outsider.

00:30:10Congratulations.

00:30:11Ava,

00:30:11are you still sulking

00:30:12with me over

00:30:13the scapegoat incident?

00:30:14When did you become

00:30:14so petty,

00:30:15so unreasonable?

00:30:16You should understand

00:30:17my disfella.

00:30:18It was for the greater good.

00:30:19You're overthinking it.

00:30:21I'm really not angry.

00:30:22Alright,

00:30:23I'm very busy.

00:30:24That's all.

00:30:25Fuck.

00:30:26Fuck.

00:30:27Fuck.

00:30:28Fuck.

00:30:32Fuck.

00:30:33Logan,

00:30:34I've already

00:30:35repaid your kindness

00:30:36with five years

00:30:37of my freedom.

00:30:38From now on,

00:30:38our worlds will

00:30:39no longer intersect.

00:30:41My life is only

00:30:42truly beginning now.

00:30:49Ava!

00:30:50You damn woman,

00:30:51not only did you

00:30:52reject me,

00:30:53but you actually

00:30:53dared to hang up on me.

00:30:55She's getting more

00:30:56in there,

00:30:56Goldinas.

00:30:57Sorry,

00:30:58the number you dialed

00:30:59is powered out.

00:31:00Darling,

00:31:01Ava must still

00:31:02be angry with me.

00:31:03It's all my fault.

00:31:04How about

00:31:05on our wedding day?

00:31:06I go and invite

00:31:07her personally.

00:31:09I believe she'll

00:31:10eventually bless us

00:31:11with tears in her eyes.

00:31:19Exactly.

00:31:20What right does she

00:31:21have to refuse me?

00:31:23Everything she has

00:31:24now was given

00:31:24by me.

00:31:26She's nothing

00:31:27but a dog I raised.

00:31:29It won't be long

00:31:30before she gets

00:31:31knocked around

00:31:31and bruised out there

00:31:33and then obediently

00:31:34crawls back,

00:31:36begging me to

00:31:36take her in.

00:31:38But why did her tone

00:31:40sound so unfamiliar

00:31:40just now?

00:31:41This feeling of

00:31:42losing my grip,

00:31:43could it really be

00:31:44just an illusion?

00:31:44Why do I have this

00:31:45feeling that she's

00:31:46going to disappear

00:31:47from my side?

00:32:04Ava, welcome to

00:32:05Liberty Financial.

00:32:07From today on,

00:32:08this is your stage.

00:32:11Chairman, we have

00:32:12a major problem.

00:32:13Our merger negotiations

00:32:14with Everett Group

00:32:14have completely reached

00:32:15a deadlock.

00:32:16The other party's

00:32:17chief negotiator

00:32:17suddenly turned hostile,

00:32:18demanding an additional

00:32:1920% of equity shares

00:32:20on up of the original

00:32:21terms, or they'll

00:32:22terminate the

00:32:22cooperation immediately.

00:32:24What?

00:32:24We've been preparing

00:32:25for this project

00:32:26for five whole years,

00:32:27investing hundreds

00:32:28of millions of dollars

00:32:29in upfront capital.

00:32:30If it collapses now,

00:32:31the group's cash flow

00:32:32will dry up instantly.

00:32:33We won't be able

00:32:34to hold on.

00:32:35Are the people

00:32:35they sent that guy

00:32:36nicked him the

00:32:37vulture miller,

00:32:38and they notoriously

00:32:38greedy Harrison?

00:32:40Yes.

00:32:40It's them.

00:32:42These two are

00:32:43notoriously difficult

00:32:44to deal with

00:32:44on Wall Street.

00:32:46They don't play

00:32:46by any professional rules.

00:32:49What a coincidence.

00:32:51Back at the

00:32:51Vanderbilt Group,

00:32:52I almost drive

00:32:53those two into bankruptcy.

00:32:54They're my old rivals.

00:32:58Leave this project

00:32:59to me.

00:33:03Chairman,

00:33:04who is she?

00:33:05Isn't it too risky

00:33:06to hand over

00:33:06such a big project

00:33:07to a new face?

00:33:08Let me formally

00:33:09introduce to everyone.

00:33:10This is the company's

00:33:11newly assigned

00:33:12executive vice president

00:33:13president and chief

00:33:14operating officer,

00:33:15Ava.

00:33:16Hello, everyone.

00:33:17I'm Ava.

00:33:18Transfer all the

00:33:19core materials

00:33:19in our tumbles

00:33:20to President Ava.

00:33:21She has the highest

00:33:22decisioning authority

00:33:23for the coming negotiations.

00:33:25Understood.

00:33:28Ava,

00:33:29I've waited five years

00:33:30just to be able

00:33:31to stand at the

00:33:31pinnacle of Wall Street

00:33:32with you side by side.

00:33:34I firmly believe

00:33:35you will never

00:33:35let me down.

00:33:36Ava,

00:33:37she is a top-class

00:33:38hunter on Wall Street.

00:33:41I believe

00:33:41she won't miss.

00:33:42Charent,

00:33:43is she really capable?

00:33:45The other kind

00:33:45is notoriously

00:33:46stingy on Wall Street.

00:33:48This president,

00:33:49Ava,

00:33:49is a war goddess,

00:33:50the chairman

00:33:51personally snatched

00:33:51from the hands

00:33:52of New York's

00:33:53top financial magnets.

00:33:54On Wall Street,

00:33:55no one wants to face

00:33:56her at the negotiation table.

00:33:58Open your eyes wide

00:33:59and see clearly.

00:34:00This is the true king

00:34:01of top-tier

00:34:01brussels negotiation.

00:34:10Miller Harrison,

00:34:12long time no see?

00:34:14Ava,

00:34:14what are you doing here?

00:34:16I'm now in charge

00:34:17of the acquisition

00:34:18for this Liberty

00:34:19financial project.

00:34:20I never imagined

00:34:21our opponent

00:34:22would be you.

00:34:23So what's the

00:34:24we're left to discuss?

00:34:25We've experienced

00:34:26your methods firsthand.

00:34:28All those

00:34:28underhanded negotiation

00:34:29tactics are just

00:34:30a waste of time

00:34:31in front of you.

00:34:32Then sign.

00:34:34No problem.

00:34:35You are the guarantee

00:34:36of industry credibility.

00:34:37We can drive

00:34:38a hard bargain

00:34:39with rookies.

00:34:40But with you,

00:34:41we value long-term

00:34:42cooperation more.

00:34:43Smart.

00:34:44Liberty Financial

00:34:45will provide you

00:34:45with top-tier

00:34:46investment banking

00:34:47support in return.

00:34:49Am I seeing things?

00:34:50That tough nut

00:34:51we've been trying

00:34:51to crack for five years

00:34:52and she got it signed

00:34:53in less than five minutes?

00:34:54This isn't a negotiation.

00:34:55It's a one-hided domination.

00:34:56Incredible.

00:34:57Is this Ava's true power?

00:34:59Simply amazing.

00:35:00Our company's

00:35:01about to take off.

00:35:02Senior,

00:35:02you're still the queen

00:35:03everyone looks up to.

00:35:04With you,

00:35:05Liberty Financial

00:35:06is about to experience

00:35:07a dreamlike leap forward.

00:35:11Pleasure doing business.

00:35:15Pleasure doing business.

00:35:17Ava,

00:35:18Logan is truly insane

00:35:19to let go of a partner

00:35:20of your caliber.

00:35:21You flatter me, Miller.

00:35:23That's not just politeness.

00:35:25If we had known earlier

00:35:26that you were leaving

00:35:27that troublesome company,

00:35:28we would have offered

00:35:29double the equity

00:35:30to poach you.

00:35:32Since you both trust me

00:35:33so much,

00:35:33we'll be allies

00:35:34in Los Angeles

00:35:35from now on.

00:35:36It's a deal.

00:35:37See you again.

00:35:41Miss Ava,

00:35:42how on earth

00:35:43did you do it?

00:35:44They're known

00:35:44as the devil's representatives

00:35:46who never concede.

00:35:48The essence of business

00:35:49is the equivalent

00:35:50exchange of resources.

00:35:53As long as you see

00:35:54through the other

00:35:55party's weakness

00:35:56and offer a bargaining chip

00:35:58they can't refuse,

00:35:59success is a matter

00:36:01of course.

00:36:05As expected

00:36:06of my senior,

00:36:07with you on board,

00:36:08Liberty Financial

00:36:09is destined

00:36:10to shine on Wall Street.

00:36:11I'm honored

00:36:12to join the Liberty

00:36:13Financial team.

00:36:17The terms

00:36:18of this offshore

00:36:19funds betting agreement

00:36:20are overwhelmingly

00:36:21in our favor.

00:36:23Is it really reliable?

00:36:25Of course.

00:36:26This is a project

00:36:27personally recommended

00:36:28by my classmate

00:36:29from Cambridge.

00:36:30There's absolutely

00:36:30no problem.

00:36:31Elena,

00:36:32with you by my side,

00:36:33I'm like a like wings.

00:36:35Once we sign

00:36:35this project,

00:36:36the market value

00:36:37of Vanderbilt Group

00:36:38can double this quarter

00:36:39and those old board members

00:36:40will have nothing to say.

00:36:42Am I better

00:36:43than that Ava

00:36:44who all knows

00:36:44how to bear

00:36:45your head and worker?

00:36:46Her?

00:36:47She's not worth

00:36:48one ten thousandth of you.

00:36:49As long as I help

00:36:50Logan secure

00:36:51these few more

00:36:52big deals

00:36:52and completely

00:36:53win his father's approval,

00:36:54I'll be the true

00:36:55mistress of the

00:36:56Vanderbilt family.

00:36:58So,

00:36:59how does it feel

00:37:00to be back

00:37:00at our alma mater?

00:37:01Much more relaxing

00:37:02than the office buildings

00:37:03in Manhattan, right?

00:37:04I never thought

00:37:05we'd reunite

00:37:06under these circumstances,

00:37:08but Liam,

00:37:09our meeting again,

00:37:10it probably wasn't

00:37:11a coincidence,

00:37:12was it?

00:37:15Actually,

00:37:16I've been

00:37:16sirely watching you

00:37:17all these years.

00:37:19It's just that

00:37:20you were too close

00:37:21to Logan

00:37:21and never had

00:37:23a chance

00:37:23to step in.

00:37:24To be honest,

00:37:25I fell for you

00:37:26at first sight.

00:37:27I watched you

00:37:27compete in speech

00:37:28contests

00:37:29and dominate

00:37:29in debates.

00:37:31After graduation,

00:37:32I wanted to invite

00:37:32you to start

00:37:33a business together,

00:37:34but then I heard

00:37:34you joined

00:37:35Logan's family business

00:37:36to pay off your debt.

00:37:37From the day

00:37:37I entered Vanderbilt,

00:37:38I never planned

00:37:39to stay for a lifetime.

00:37:40I was just

00:37:41repaying a debt.

00:37:42Once it's paid off,

00:37:43it's time to leave.

00:37:44But I heard

00:37:44you were in a core position,

00:37:46holding all the

00:37:46lifelines of the company.

00:37:48How could that

00:37:48lunatic Logan

00:37:49bear to let you go?

00:37:50The world keeps

00:37:51turning without anyone.

00:37:52I'm not as

00:37:53indispensable as he thinks.

00:37:54I've done

00:37:55what needed

00:37:55to be done,

00:37:56repaid what

00:37:57needed to be repaid.

00:37:58We're even.

00:37:59I can disappear

00:37:59from his world

00:38:00with a clear conscience.

00:38:01Now that you've

00:38:02come to my side,

00:38:03I will never

00:38:03let go again.

00:38:07Chairman,

00:38:07something terrible

00:38:08has happened.

00:38:09Vice President Elena

00:38:10publicly fired

00:38:10our top salesperson,

00:38:11Carter,

00:38:12just because he was

00:38:12ten minutes late

00:38:13to the morning meeting.

00:38:14Carter was immediately

00:38:15poached by our

00:38:16arch-rival,

00:38:17Apex Capital.

00:38:18He took three

00:38:19of our core

00:38:20major clients

00:38:20with him.

00:38:22The company's

00:38:23losses are at least

00:38:24$200 million.

00:38:26Who gave her

00:38:27permission to touch

00:38:28Carter?

00:38:28He's the pillar

00:38:29of our company's

00:38:30performance.

00:38:35Chairman,

00:38:36it gets worse.

00:38:37We just wired

00:38:37the $50 million

00:38:38advance for that

00:38:39overseas project

00:38:40Elena signed off of

00:38:41and the recipient's

00:38:41account was instantly

00:38:42deactivated.

00:38:43We checked the FBI's

00:38:44blacklist.

00:38:45It's just a shell

00:38:46company for money

00:38:46laundering.

00:38:47We've been set up.

00:38:49What?

00:38:53Chairman,

00:38:54I personally

00:38:55half a month

00:38:56a month

00:38:56in Silicon Valley

00:38:57touched

00:38:57the socials

00:38:58genius Carter.

00:39:00With Ham on board,

00:39:01no one can touch

00:39:02Vanderbilt's

00:39:03and with North

00:39:03Mayor's share.

00:39:04This man's

00:39:05background is indeed

00:39:06clean

00:39:07and formidable.

00:39:08And these

00:39:09offshore projects,

00:39:10I've been tracking

00:39:10them for two years.

00:39:12I've personally

00:39:12done all the

00:39:13risk assessments.

00:39:14As long as

00:39:15I'm here,

00:39:15none of your

00:39:16decisions will go

00:39:17wrong.

00:39:18Chairman,

00:39:19Elena just signed

00:39:20two $10 billion

00:39:21hedge agreements

00:39:21with European

00:39:22investment banks

00:39:23in your name.

00:39:23But according

00:39:24to our emergency

00:39:25due diligence,

00:39:26both companies

00:39:26are backed

00:39:27by nothing but

00:39:27shells.

00:39:28The risk is

00:39:28off the circus.

00:39:29Chairman,

00:39:30you have to

00:39:30make a decision

00:39:31or the company

00:39:31will be hollowed

00:39:32out.

00:39:45In such a short

00:39:47time,

00:39:47I've used

00:39:48my university

00:39:49connections

00:39:49to secure

00:39:50so many

00:39:51major projects

00:39:52for Logan.

00:39:53He must be

00:39:54looking at me

00:39:54in a new

00:39:55light now,

00:39:56finally realizing

00:39:57who his true

00:39:58partner in

00:39:59battle is.

00:40:03Investigate.

00:40:04The overseas

00:40:05parent companies

00:40:06of these two

00:40:07projects have

00:40:08no operational

00:40:09qualifications

00:40:10at all.

00:40:11They're all

00:40:11shell companies

00:40:12for money

00:40:13laundering.

00:40:14Chairman,

00:40:15the finance

00:40:16department just

00:40:17followed Miss

00:40:17Elena's urgent

00:40:18instructions and

00:40:19has already

00:40:19transferred all

00:40:20the down

00:40:21payments.

00:40:22All

00:40:23transferred?

00:40:24Five hundred

00:40:25million dollars?

00:40:26How on earth

00:40:27did Elena vet

00:40:28their qualifications?

00:40:29Is her brain

00:40:29filled with mush?

00:40:31With this level

00:40:32of incompetence,

00:40:33she's not even

00:40:34worth one ten

00:40:35thousandth of Ava.

00:40:41All of you,

00:40:42get out!

00:40:48If Ava were here,

00:40:50such a low-level

00:40:51mistake would never

00:40:52have happened.

00:40:55If Ava were here,

00:40:56such a low-level

00:40:57mistake would never

00:40:58have happened.

00:40:59But why?

00:41:00Elena is clearly

00:41:01my first love,

00:41:02so why do I have

00:41:03such absurd thoughts?

00:41:04Elena just returned

00:41:05to the country.

00:41:06It's inevitable

00:41:07there are slip-ups

00:41:08in business.

00:41:09As long as I bring

00:41:10Ava back to assist

00:41:11her, the company

00:41:12will quickly get

00:41:13back on track.

00:41:17Sorry, the number

00:41:18you have dialed

00:41:19is not in service.

00:41:21Not in service?

00:41:23Ava, you've gone

00:41:24this far?

00:41:25You even cut off

00:41:26the last means of

00:41:27contact?

00:41:29Contact?

00:41:30Contact?

00:41:32Contact?

00:41:33Contact?

00:41:41Ava, open the door!

00:41:43I know you're in

00:41:44there, don't play

00:41:44hide-and-souk with

00:41:45me!

00:41:55Ava?

00:42:11Logan, this is

00:42:12my final gift to

00:42:13you.

00:42:14Everything you

00:42:15casually handed down

00:42:15to me over the

00:42:16years is in this

00:42:17box.

00:42:21I didn't take a

00:42:22single piece of

00:42:23the trash in the

00:42:24closet that you

00:42:25looked down upon.

00:42:26We're even now.

00:42:28Goodbye forever.

00:42:36What does she mean

00:42:37by this?

00:42:38These were my

00:42:39rewards to her.

00:42:40She never used a

00:42:42single one?

00:42:46This Rolex was

00:42:47originally bought for

00:42:48Elena, but I

00:42:50remembered wrong.

00:42:52She doesn't like

00:42:53this kind of rugged

00:42:53strap.

00:42:54It's yours now.

00:42:55Take it and wear.

00:43:13The tag is still

00:43:14on.

00:43:16She never wore

00:43:17any of the clothes

00:43:17I bought for her.

00:43:23The tag is still

00:43:25on.

00:43:26She never wore

00:43:27any of the clothes

00:43:28I bought for her.

00:43:29Darling, does this

00:43:30limited edition

00:43:31Chanel suit your

00:43:32complexion?

00:43:33Honey, I've long

00:43:34outgrown that old

00:43:35fashion style.

00:43:36I have other

00:43:37brands I prefer.

00:43:38Gotta go.

00:43:39Wham?

00:43:47Elena doesn't like

00:43:49it.

00:43:49This trash is

00:43:50yours now.

00:43:51Throw it away or

00:43:52wear it yourself.

00:43:55These jewels, these

00:43:57clothes, she hasn't

00:43:59even touched them.

00:44:00Every single thing

00:44:01she left here is a

00:44:01slap in my face.

00:44:03She's telling me she

00:44:04never valued anything

00:44:06I gave her.

00:44:15Ava, what gives you

00:44:17the right to draw a line

00:44:18with me?

00:44:19Are you trying to tell

00:44:20me you've won with

00:44:21all this garbage?

00:44:27Mobilize all our

00:44:28contacts, both legal

00:44:29and underworld.

00:44:30Seal off every exit

00:44:32port in New York.

00:44:33Track that woman down

00:44:34no matter where she's

00:44:35hiding.

00:44:36She doesn't even have

00:44:37the right to die

00:44:38without my permission.

00:44:41How dare she

00:44:42disappear?

00:44:44I'll make her

00:44:45regret ever being

00:44:46born.

00:44:51Ava, what gives you

00:44:53the right to draw a

00:44:54line with me?

00:44:55Are you trying to

00:44:56tell me you've won

00:44:56with all this garbage?

00:45:03Ava, even though

00:45:04you've been driven

00:45:05out of New York,

00:45:06Logan's heart is still

00:45:07completely filled with

00:45:08you.

00:45:09No, you're just

00:45:10my replacement.

00:45:12Logan can only

00:45:13be my prey.

00:45:17I'm going to let

00:45:18the whole world

00:45:19know who the

00:45:20future master

00:45:20of the Vanderbilt

00:45:21family is.

00:45:23Ava, you'll

00:45:24forever be stuck

00:45:24in the gutter.

00:45:35Have you found

00:45:35her?

00:45:36Chairman, we've

00:45:37searched all the

00:45:37private clinics and

00:45:38apartments in

00:45:39Manhattan and

00:45:39Queens.

00:45:40There's absolutely

00:45:41no trace of

00:45:41Miss Ava.

00:45:45Damn it!

00:45:46Ava, where the

00:45:47hell are you

00:45:48hiding?

00:45:52Damn it!

00:45:53Ava, where the

00:45:54hell are you

00:45:54hiding?

00:45:55Where exactly are

00:45:56you planning to go?

00:45:57To a place where

00:45:58there's no more you

00:45:59and Elena.

00:45:59She paid off all

00:46:00her debts just to

00:46:01escape me completely.

00:46:03Ava, who gave you

00:46:04the nerve to vanish

00:46:05from my world.

00:46:08Buddy, you're

00:46:09way too low-key.

00:46:10You're about to

00:46:11get married and you

00:46:12didn't even invite us

00:46:13for a drink?

00:46:14Elena's the one

00:46:14with scents.

00:46:15The photos she

00:46:15posted have set all

00:46:16of Wall Street on

00:46:17fire.

00:46:18What wedding?

00:46:19What the hell are

00:46:19you talking about?

00:46:20Stop pretending.

00:46:21Check your social

00:46:21media feed.

00:46:22You guys are really

00:46:23going all out.

00:46:24Was that right after

00:46:25you got out of bed?

00:46:33Darling, why are

00:46:34you here so early?

00:46:35Did you miss me?

00:46:39Delete that

00:46:39disgusting post right

00:46:41now, Elena.

00:46:41I brought you back

00:46:42to play the part of

00:46:43the perfect white

00:46:44moonlight, not to

00:46:45scheme here.

00:46:48Elena, when did

00:46:49you become so

00:46:50scheming?

00:46:50Logan, I'm your

00:46:52fiance.

00:46:53Is posting an

00:46:53intimate photo of

00:46:54you some kind of

00:46:55capital crime?

00:46:56Phone.

00:46:57Unlock it.

00:46:59If you want our

00:46:59relationship to end

00:47:00right here, you can

00:47:01keep holding on to

00:47:02it.

00:47:11From now on, you

00:47:12are not to post

00:47:12anything about my

00:47:13private life without

00:47:14permission.

00:47:15Elena, trying to

00:47:16force marriage with

00:47:16such a low-level

00:47:17technique is too

00:47:17childish.

00:47:18This is the first

00:47:19and last time.

00:47:20If it were Ava, she

00:47:21would never do

00:47:21something so stupid.

00:47:22She always knows

00:47:23where the line is.

00:47:24Logan, I did this

00:47:26because I love you

00:47:27too much.

00:47:28I'm scared every

00:47:29day.

00:47:30Scared you'll get

00:47:31tired of me.

00:47:32Scared you'll realize

00:47:33I'm not as capable

00:47:34as Ava.

00:47:35What I fear most is

00:47:36that Ava will come

00:47:37back and take you

00:47:38away from me.

00:47:42Please, don't do this.

00:47:44Logan, please don't go.

00:47:46I'll be good.

00:47:47I'll become the person

00:47:48you want me to be.

00:47:49I'm just so afraid of

00:47:51losing you.

00:47:52Afraid of losing?

00:47:53I admit I made the

00:47:55stupidest decision, but

00:47:56you're the only one in

00:47:57my heart.

00:47:58I really care about you

00:48:00too much.

00:48:02I didn't, Mr. Logan.

00:48:03Don't worry.

00:48:04I'll find one soon.

00:48:05Don't lie.

00:48:06Elena is starting

00:48:07to suspect us.

00:48:08I won't allow you to

00:48:09tarnish the pure love

00:48:11between her and me.

00:48:12I shared a bed with

00:48:13Ava for five whole years.

00:48:14I honestly thought she

00:48:15would have some shred

00:48:15of attachment.

00:48:16But now, she managed

00:48:17to vanish into thin air

00:48:18without a second thought.

00:48:19Turns out, the one

00:48:20who truly cares

00:48:21never leaves.

00:48:22And the one who

00:48:23never really cared

00:48:24about me walks away

00:48:25with zero regrets.

00:48:26Ava, you win.

00:48:35Due to quality issues,

00:48:37the foundation has

00:48:38collapsed.

00:48:38The other party has

00:48:39officially filed a

00:48:40lawsuit with a federal

00:48:41court demanding that we

00:48:42pay one billion U.S.

00:48:43dollars.

00:48:45What did you say?

00:48:49Darling, look at this.

00:48:51I'm going to replace all

00:48:52those outdated suppliers

00:48:53Ava left behind.

00:48:57Why change them?

00:48:59Those companies have

00:48:59worked with us for 10

00:49:00years without a single

00:49:01mistake.

00:49:03Because they're too

00:49:03expensive.

00:49:05The batch I found is

00:49:06half the price.

00:49:07That woman, I treated

00:49:08her so well.

00:49:09And she betrayed me?

00:49:11You're the reliable

00:49:12one.

00:49:12Diwari, it's backed

00:49:14by a top-tier lab.

00:49:15Absolutely proof.

00:49:19This is a third-party

00:49:20men's yet report.

00:49:21This patch of gong is

00:49:23nothing but inferior

00:49:23recycled scrap, not even

00:49:25meeting half of the

00:49:26minimum safety standards.

00:49:28Vanderbilt Group is not

00:49:29only macing bankruptcy,

00:49:30we'll have to bear

00:49:31criminal sciability.

00:49:33Can you tell me what's

00:49:34going on?

00:49:35Didn't you say it was

00:49:36backed by a top-tier

00:49:37lab?

00:49:41I was deceived by the

00:49:43middle man.

00:49:44I didn't know.

00:49:51Elena, you're fired.

00:49:52Get out of here with your

00:49:53disgusting lies right now.

00:49:55I never want to lay eyes

00:49:56on you again.

00:49:57Logan?

00:49:59For that bitch?

00:50:01You actually hit me?

00:50:04You're firing me over this

00:50:05little money?

00:50:06Get out.

00:50:07Drag this trash out of here.

00:50:12Chairman, if we can't

00:50:13come up with a solution

00:50:14before the market opens

00:50:15tomorrow, Vanderbilt's

00:50:16stock will be wiped out

00:50:17instantly.

00:50:18We're going bankrupt.

00:50:19Bankrupt?

00:50:21Vanderbilt's century-old

00:50:22legacy is going to be

00:50:23destroyed by me?

00:50:24If Ava were here, none of

00:50:26this would have happened.

00:50:27It's all my fault.

00:50:29How could I have been so

00:50:30blind to let a fool like

00:50:31Elena take the vice

00:50:32president's position?

00:50:33Chairman, I just received a

00:50:35tip.

00:50:36Miss Ava is now at

00:50:37Liberty Financial.

00:50:39What?

00:50:40How dare she go to that

00:50:41small-time company to

00:50:43become my competitor?

00:50:44Who gave her the audacity

00:50:46to betray me like this?

00:50:47Since you're not dead, you

00:50:49must come back and save my

00:50:50empire.

00:50:55Ava, I know your ambitions

00:50:56go far beyond this now.

00:50:57If we secure this deal,

00:50:59Liberty Financial would

00:51:00tear open a crack in the

00:51:01core North American market

00:51:02and soar to new heights.

00:51:03Chairman, I heard that for

00:51:04this Wansang International

00:51:06bid, the company would

00:51:07competitors are all

00:51:08established Wall Street

00:51:09financial giants and

00:51:10top-tier multinational

00:51:11corporations.

00:51:12She definitely can.

00:51:14In my dictionary, Ava is

00:51:16synonymous with miracle.

00:51:18You've never let me down

00:51:19before.

00:51:20This time will be your

00:51:21coronation once again.

00:51:24Ava is back!

00:51:35Liam, I'm sorry.

00:51:36It's okay.

00:51:38Even if we didn't sign this

00:51:39deal, it doesn't matter.

00:51:41As long as you come back

00:51:42safely, we have countless

00:51:43more opportunities.

00:51:48I said I'm sorry because

00:51:49starting tomorrow, everyone

00:51:50might have to work overtime for

00:51:51a whole month, the contract.

00:51:53I got it.

00:51:59Sorry, I was just too excited.

00:52:01Oh my God!

00:52:02Signing with Wansang

00:52:03International means our

00:52:03company's valuation will

00:52:05double tonight.

00:52:05It's a miracle!

00:52:06Truly the undisputed queen

00:52:08of negotiation on Wall

00:52:09Street.

00:52:09Don't you shower me with

00:52:11praise.

00:52:12This is the result of the

00:52:13whole team's overnight due

00:52:14diligence.

00:52:15Without your data support,

00:52:16I couldn't have signed a

00:52:17single word.

00:52:20Ava, I finally found you,

00:52:22you despicable traitor.

00:52:24Get over here right now.

00:52:28Ava, get over here right

00:52:30now.

00:52:31Chairman Logan, aren't you

00:52:33busy planning that

00:52:33multi-billion dollar wedding

00:52:35of the century for Elena?

00:52:36What brings you to a small

00:52:38company like mine to throw a

00:52:39tantrum?

00:52:40Who gave you permission to

00:52:41change your phone number?

00:52:42Did I ever allow you to

00:52:44disappear from my site?

00:52:45And did you get my

00:52:46permission to work for this

00:52:47rival company?

00:52:48Chairman Logan, it seems

00:52:49your memory is failing you.

00:52:50I've already resigned from

00:52:52your company.

00:52:52Where I go, even if it's to

00:52:54work on Mars, has nothing to

00:52:55with you.

00:52:56Not even half a quent.

00:52:57Ava, I'm giving you one

00:52:58last chance.

00:52:59Get back to my company with

00:53:00me, now.

00:53:01Several major overseas

00:53:03short-sheeters are frankly

00:53:03attacking our stock price

00:53:04right now.

00:53:05You're the only one who can

00:53:06handle this mess.

00:53:08Sorry, but I'm now an

00:53:09executive partner at

00:53:10Liberty Financial.

00:53:11I have no obligation to

00:53:12help you patch up that

00:53:13dilapidated sinking vote

00:53:14anymore.

00:53:15Besides, don't you have

00:53:16your gun goddess Elena?

00:53:17Let her use her innocent

00:53:18face to get you through

00:53:19this crisis.

00:53:20Have you forgotten who

00:53:21helped you in the first

00:53:21place?

00:53:22If it weren't for me,

00:53:23you'd still be in the

00:53:23slums.

00:53:24It was me who put you in

00:53:25a top-tier Vela, who

00:53:26brought you into the

00:53:27global financial circle.

00:53:28Listen, if you come with

00:53:29me now and help me solve

00:53:30this crisis, I can forgive

00:53:32your previous insolence and

00:53:34even reinstate you as

00:53:35vice president.

00:53:38Logan, I have no interest

00:53:39in that position anymore.

00:53:40I spent five years by your

00:53:41side as a substitute,

00:53:42handling countless shady

00:53:43bad debts for you,

00:53:44and even took a bullet

00:53:45for Elena.

00:53:46The debts I owed have

00:53:47long been paid off.

00:53:48We are even now.

00:53:49Paid off?

00:53:50You can never repay what

00:53:51you owe me in this

00:53:51lifetime.

00:53:52Ava, as long as I haven't

00:53:53grown tired of you, you

00:53:54will always be my

00:53:55accessory.

00:53:56Come with me.

00:53:57Chairman Logan, this is a

00:53:58Liberty Finance, not your

00:53:59backyard garden.

00:54:00Let her go.

00:54:01Who do you think you are,

00:54:02daring to cause problem at

00:54:03Liberty Finance and lay

00:54:05hands on our partner?

00:54:06I recognize him now.

00:54:07Hear this, the Vanderbilt

00:54:08T-twin famous dorned on

00:54:09Logan.

00:54:10I heard he plants a

00:54:11ginsess by Neneas fuel

00:54:13social Elena from in a

00:54:14golf, causing core projects

00:54:16to blow up one after other.

00:54:17Now Vanderbilt has

00:54:18decayed on the load on

00:54:19Wall Street and on the

00:54:20verge of puncture.

00:54:21I heard Miss Ava poured

00:54:22her heart and soul into

00:54:23their company for five years,

00:54:24and he actually kicked her

00:54:25out for a pretty face.

00:54:26Now that the company is in

00:54:27ruins, he remembers to come

00:54:28begging for our Miss Ava.

00:54:29Pure karma.

00:54:30He didn't recognize Ava's

00:54:31financial genius back then

00:54:32and now that he's going

00:54:33bankrupt, he thinks he can

00:54:34come crawling back?

00:54:35Dream on.

00:54:38Shut up.

00:54:39What do you bottom-feeding

00:54:40insects know?

00:54:41I'm Ava's benefactor.

00:54:43I was the one who pulled

00:54:44her out of the mud.

00:54:45Ava, you owe me a debt you

00:54:46can never repay in this

00:54:47lifetime.

00:54:48This is between us.

00:54:49Outsiders have no right to

00:54:50interfere.

00:54:51Come back with me to settle

00:54:52this debt.

00:54:52Logan, I'm telling you

00:54:54for the last time,

00:54:55there's no way I'm going

00:54:56back with you.

00:54:57From the second I walked

00:54:58out of that villa,

00:54:59that absurd five years

00:55:00between us was already

00:55:01completely dead.

00:55:02Ava, how dare you speak

00:55:04to me in that tone?

00:55:05Who gave you the nerve

00:55:06to defy me?

00:55:16You, how dare you hit me?

00:55:21Logan, it's true that you helped

00:55:23A financially in the beginning,

00:55:24and that was a kindness.

00:55:26But that doesn't mean she sold

00:55:27herself to you for life.

00:55:28This slap is payback for the

00:55:30humiliation and games you put

00:55:31her through over these five

00:55:32years.

00:55:33As long as I'm here, you don't

00:55:35have the right to lay a fend on

00:55:36her ever again.

00:55:38This slap is to reclaim the

00:55:41dignity Ava lost over these

00:55:42five years.

00:55:45Liam, you...

00:55:46Ava, today is a day for

00:55:48celebration.

00:55:49There's no need to these

00:55:50pasts that easing buried in

00:55:51the grave infect your mead.

00:55:53As the company's greatest

00:55:54contributor, I wonder if I

00:55:55have the honor of inviting

00:55:57you to dinner tonight.

00:55:58Wow, is Chairman Liam going

00:55:59to confess publicly?

00:56:01I heard Liam has had a crush

00:56:02on Miss Ava since their

00:56:03Yale University days.

00:56:04That look in his eyes is

00:56:05impossible to hide.

00:56:07The heir of a top-tar family

00:56:08dynasty paired with the

00:56:09Queen of Finance?

00:56:10Now that's a true power

00:56:11couple.

00:56:12Ava, I've reserved a table

00:56:14at the top-reloving

00:56:15restaurant tonight.

00:56:16Come with me.

00:56:19Ava, since when have you

00:56:20had the guts to refuse my

00:56:22invitation?

00:56:23I'm sorry, Liam.

00:56:24I can't have dinner with

00:56:25you.

00:56:26Why?

00:56:27I knew it.

00:56:29This woman was my shadow

00:56:30for five years.

00:56:31That ingrained sense of

00:56:33inferiority can't be changed.

00:56:35She simply doesn't dare to

00:56:36defy me.

00:56:39Because I promised to treat

00:56:40the entire company

00:56:41to a celebration party

00:56:43this afternoon.

00:56:44What?

00:56:46You'd rather spend time

00:56:47with these knollers

00:56:48than with me?

00:56:49Don't worry, Ava.

00:56:50I've already arranged

00:56:51the hotel suite and

00:56:52champagne for the staff.

00:56:54As for you,

00:56:54you're the brightest star

00:56:56tonight, and I must

00:56:57personally celebrate

00:56:57your success.

00:56:59All right, let's go then.

00:57:01Ava, I'm standing

00:57:03right in front of you,

00:57:04and you dare to go on a

00:57:05date with another man

00:57:06right in front of me?

00:57:06Do you even see me

00:57:08as your fiancé anymore?

00:57:09Logan, let me correct

00:57:10you on two points.

00:57:11First, your fiancé

00:57:12is named Elena,

00:57:13and I'm just your

00:57:14former executive.

00:57:15Second, I've settled

00:57:16all our old debts.

00:57:17There's nothing

00:57:18between us anymore.

00:57:19Ava, take one step

00:57:21and see what happens.

00:57:25Hey, this outdated chairman,

00:57:27you can't go over there.

00:57:28Our Ava is busy on a

00:57:29date with her true love.

00:57:30What you trying to do?

00:57:32Wanna be a thousand

00:57:32watt light bulb?

00:57:40Ava, it prumens

00:57:41what the Pendwen

00:57:42has never be wrong.

00:57:43Since you took over,

00:57:44we've successfully acquired

00:57:46three core projects

00:57:47in a row.

00:57:48With this glass of

00:57:49top screed Ace of Spain's,

00:57:51I toast to the soul

00:57:53of our Liberty Financial.

00:57:55Liam, you're too kind.

00:57:57Without everyone's

00:57:58round-the-clock cooperation,

00:57:59I alone couldn't have

00:58:01pulled off an operation

00:58:02of this scale.

00:58:03Ava, to be honest,

00:58:04before you joined us,

00:58:05we were just burning

00:58:06through investors' money

00:58:07every day,

00:58:07almost hitting rock bottom.

00:58:09Yeah, if Ava hadn't joined

00:58:10and led us to this

00:58:11turnaround victory,

00:58:12this dinner tonight

00:58:13would probably be

00:58:13our farewell party.

00:58:14Don't talk nonsense.

00:58:15With Ava,

00:58:16our blueprint has just begun.

00:58:18To the future queen

00:58:19of Wall Street,

00:58:20bottoms up.

00:58:22Ava, haven't you noticed?

00:58:24You and our chairman,

00:58:25Liam, standing together

00:58:26are practically

00:58:27the textbook example

00:58:28of a top-tier

00:58:29Chibon couple.

00:58:30Exactly.

00:58:31Ever since Ava joined,

00:58:32I've never seen

00:58:33Chairman Liam sober.

00:58:34His eyes are always

00:58:35full of pink bubbles.

00:58:36Can't all this premium

00:58:37steak shut you up?

00:58:39We agreed tonight,

00:58:40no one leaves

00:58:42until we're drunk,

00:58:43and whoever leaves

00:58:43first pays the bill.

00:58:50Oh, Ava,

00:58:51I can't go on.

00:58:52I'm seeing double.

00:58:55Chairman Liam

00:58:55is in your capable hands now.

00:58:57Right, right.

00:58:57My mom told me

00:58:58to go home

00:58:58for a late-night snack.

00:58:59If I'm late,

00:59:00she'll confiscate

00:59:01my credit card.

00:59:02The sacred mission

00:59:02of Escortijon

00:59:03falls to you!

00:59:05Hey,

00:59:06you bunch of traitors.

00:59:18Take it easy.

00:59:20You really should

00:59:21lose some weight,

00:59:22big guy.

00:59:36This is...

00:59:37a photo of me

00:59:38from my university days?

00:59:42Damn it.

00:59:43I forgot to hide

00:59:43this incriminative evidence.

00:59:53Weren't you so drunk

00:59:54you could barely walk?

00:59:55I was a bit dizzy

00:59:57just now,

00:59:57but seeing this photo,

00:59:59I suddenly sobered up.

01:00:02How do you have

01:00:03a photo of me

01:00:03from my junior year?

01:00:05Back then,

01:00:05you were the star

01:00:06of the Yale football team

01:00:07and I was just

01:00:08a part-time working student

01:00:09practically invisible.

01:00:11Because long before

01:00:12that football game,

01:00:13I had already

01:00:13been watching you.

01:00:20Too expensive.

01:00:22That's enough

01:00:22for two months

01:00:22of my living expenses.

01:00:26I knew your family

01:00:28had gone bankrupt

01:00:28and you were burdened

01:00:29with huge student loans.

01:00:31You could only save

01:00:32every penny

01:00:32to buy those obscure

01:00:33professional books.

01:00:47Back then,

01:00:48you only had eyes

01:00:49for Logan,

01:00:50the one

01:00:50who took you

01:00:51out of the slums.

01:00:53I was afraid

01:00:53of disturbing

01:00:54your happiness,

01:00:55so I could only

01:00:56hide my identity

01:00:57and silently help you

01:00:58in this clumsy way.

01:01:00After graduating

01:01:01from university,

01:01:02I knew you went

01:01:03to Logan's company

01:01:04out of gratitude.

01:01:05I watched you

01:01:05choose a path

01:01:06you didn't like,

01:01:07watched you step back

01:01:08for his ambitions

01:01:09and grow into the top elite

01:01:11step by step.

01:01:12No one knows

01:01:13how much you sacrificed,

01:01:14but I do.

01:01:16I know your heart

01:01:17was just broken

01:01:17by Logan.

01:01:18Five years of youth

01:01:19traded for betrayal.

01:01:24I know you can't

01:01:25fall in love

01:01:26with someone else

01:01:26right away,

01:01:27but I'm willing

01:01:27to wait.

01:01:30As long as you

01:01:31can walk out

01:01:31of that darkness,

01:01:33even if you treat me

01:01:34as Tiet for Logan,

01:01:35I'm willing.

01:01:36Liam,

01:01:38I'm sorry,

01:01:39I can't agree to that.

01:01:53Liam,

01:01:54I'm sorry,

01:01:54I can't agree

01:01:55to your proposal

01:01:55just now.

01:01:58I was too impatient,

01:01:59Ava.

01:02:00If you feel pressured,

01:02:01we can just be

01:02:02business partners.

01:02:03Long as I can be

01:02:04by your side,

01:02:05I'm willing to do

01:02:05anything.

01:02:07I mean this shit.

01:02:08I don't need you

01:02:09to be anyone

01:02:10T-tight.

01:02:11Liam,

01:02:11you are you,

01:02:12the one and only

01:02:13bright spot in my life.

01:02:15I'm no longer

01:02:16that humble Steeter.

01:02:18Start a day,

01:02:19we'll bunita forget

01:02:19someone to

01:02:20Kaishin Ushan.

01:02:22So,

01:02:23does that mean we...

01:02:26Of course.

01:02:28I've always known

01:02:29it was you

01:02:29who silently helped me,

01:02:31but at that age

01:02:32when I couldn't even

01:02:33hold on to my dignity,

01:02:34I couldn't give you

01:02:35any response,

01:02:36not until I walked

01:02:38into Liberty Financial.

01:02:40When met that war,

01:02:41those eyes were

01:02:42full of me once again.

01:02:49I heard that you

01:02:50were at the

01:02:51Vanderbilt Group.

01:02:52You were known

01:02:52as Drink Thousand

01:02:53Bait One.

01:02:55Thank you,

01:02:55and the bomb

01:02:56Logan would cover

01:02:56that bet

01:02:57you dollar in a

01:02:57swinch,

01:02:58you down your

01:02:58health bot shots.

01:03:01If you drink

01:03:01these eight glasses

01:03:02today,

01:03:03this deal goes

01:03:03to Liberty Financial.

01:03:05Yeah,

01:03:05let us witness

01:03:06the drinking capacity

01:03:07of this financial queen.

01:03:10Black,

01:03:11if my partner

01:03:12needs to trade

01:03:13her life for a contract,

01:03:14then this deal

01:03:15isn't worth it.

01:03:16Ava,

01:03:16let's go.

01:03:22Liam,

01:03:23I'm willing

01:03:23to be your girlfriend.

01:03:24From now on,

01:03:25I will love you,

01:03:26cherish you,

01:03:27and protect you.

01:03:28Let's work hard together

01:03:29to build a real home

01:03:30that belongs to us

01:03:31in this cold city.

01:03:32Ava,

01:03:33you're not just saying

01:03:34that to make me happy?

01:03:35I choose to be with you

01:03:36for no complicated reason.

01:03:38Simply because

01:03:40I've also been

01:03:41hopelessly in love

01:03:42with you

01:03:42for a long time.

01:03:43I'm so happy,

01:03:44Ava.

01:03:45I feel like

01:03:45all the sunlight

01:03:46in the world

01:03:47has brightened

01:03:47at this moment.

01:04:05See you tomorrow,

01:04:06Ava.

01:04:06Have a pleasant evening.

01:04:07See you tomorrow.

01:04:17Where are you going?

01:04:18Get in the car,

01:04:19I'll give you a ride.

01:04:20Logan,

01:04:20who exactly are you

01:04:22performing these

01:04:22childish tricks for?

01:04:24Ava,

01:04:25I didn't handle things

01:04:26properly back then.

01:04:28I shouldn't have let you

01:04:29take the fall

01:04:30for that damn charge

01:04:31to protect Elena's reputation,

01:04:32forcing you to resign

01:04:34and leave the company.

01:04:35The position of vice president

01:04:36at the Vanderbilt Group,

01:04:37I've kept it for you.

01:04:39The room that belongs

01:04:40to you at home,

01:04:41I've had it cleaned.

01:04:42Just say the word

01:04:43and you can come back

01:04:45anytime.

01:04:46We can start over.

01:04:48Logan,

01:04:49I'm curious.

01:04:51Who gave you the confidence

01:04:52to think that I would

01:04:53give up my position

01:04:53as a global partner

01:04:54at Liberty Financial

01:04:55to return to your

01:04:57nearly-brancropped

01:04:57Vanderbilt Group

01:04:58just to be a vice-vectricer

01:05:00you can summon

01:05:01and dismiss at will?

01:05:04What are you talking about?

01:05:08And what makes you think

01:05:09that keeping that dark,

01:05:11damp,

01:05:11uninhabitable servant's room

01:05:13in your house for me

01:05:14is some great favor?

01:05:18Logan,

01:05:19stop wasting your time on me.

01:05:20Your persistence

01:05:21only makes me think

01:05:22less of you.

01:05:25Ava,

01:05:27since you have

01:05:28no feelings for me,

01:05:29I've prepared

01:05:30a better gift for you.

01:05:32I'm sure you'll like it.

01:05:40This is the place.

01:05:42Who exactly is

01:05:43this mysterious investor?

01:05:49Miss Ava, I presume?

01:05:51This way, please.

01:05:51Your table is ready.

01:05:52Is there a proposal

01:05:53happening here today?

01:05:54Something like that.

01:05:55A gentleman is preparing

01:05:57the most romantic

01:05:57surprise for you.

01:05:59Miss Ava,

01:05:59please take a seat first.

01:06:06So it's Ava

01:06:07that Logan wants

01:06:07to confess to.

01:06:08I'll mix that

01:06:09disfigurating potentation

01:06:10into the red wine.

01:06:11Ava,

01:06:12this is what you get

01:06:13for stealing my man.

01:06:14Ava,

01:06:15you've really come

01:06:16to your end.

01:06:22It's you!

01:06:23It's you!

01:06:31So,

01:06:31the mysterious investor

01:06:32who anonymously

01:06:33requested a meeting

01:06:34for cooperation

01:06:35is you.

01:06:35To be precise,

01:06:36it's the who wants

01:06:36to beg on his knees

01:06:37to cooperate.

01:06:38Ava,

01:06:38don't go.

01:06:39Give me five minutes.

01:06:39I said the wrong thing

01:06:40at the summit entrance

01:06:41and that wasn't

01:06:42what I truly meant.

01:06:46Just say yes

01:06:47and you'll be

01:06:47the Vanderbilt Group's

01:06:48sole representative

01:06:49in North America.

01:06:50The $50 million mansion

01:06:51in Manhattan,

01:06:52all the trust funds

01:06:53in my name,

01:06:54they'll all have

01:06:54your signature on them.

01:06:55Let's go back

01:06:56to how we were before.

01:06:57Back to when I only

01:06:58had you, okay?

01:07:00Ever since you left,

01:07:01everything has spiraled

01:07:03out of control for me.

01:07:04Why do those

01:07:05difficult shareholders

01:07:05and partners

01:07:06only recognize you?

01:07:08Ava,

01:07:08where are you?

01:07:10Only now do I realize

01:07:11that all my external

01:07:12success was because of you.

01:07:14It was only after

01:07:15the day you left me

01:07:16that I realized

01:07:17just how important

01:07:17you were to me.

01:07:18Ava,

01:07:19pour me a cup of coffee.

01:07:21I got used to

01:07:22working late nights

01:07:23with the coffee

01:07:23you brought me,

01:07:24used to you

01:07:25handling all my troubles.

01:07:26Without you,

01:07:27my world is just gray.

01:07:32Ava,

01:07:32I really can't live

01:07:33without you.

01:07:34For God's sake,

01:07:35come back to me.

01:07:36Logan,

01:07:37I've been by your side

01:07:37for so long.

01:07:38Have you ever

01:07:39respected me?

01:07:40Have you ever

01:07:41cared about me?

01:07:42I admit,

01:07:43I owe you a debt

01:07:44of gratitude.

01:07:44But these past five years,

01:07:46I've already repaid it.

01:07:47You don't need to put

01:07:48on this act of deep affection

01:07:49for the sake

01:07:50of your pathetic possessiveness.

01:07:51Don't be so distant

01:07:52with me, Ava.

01:07:54Let's start over,

01:07:55like before.

01:07:56Let me spoil you again,

01:07:57okay?

01:07:58Don't you think

01:07:58you look like a child

01:07:59right now?

01:08:00Ava,

01:08:00listen to me.

01:08:01I'm not angry

01:08:01that you left

01:08:02Vanderbilt five years ago,

01:08:03really.

01:08:03I just think

01:08:04those unpleasant things

01:08:05are in the past now.

01:08:06Since it's all

01:08:07in the past,

01:08:08Chairman Logan,

01:08:08there's no need

01:08:09to lower yourself

01:08:10by bringing up

01:08:10old debts.

01:08:11The current distance

01:08:12is good for both of us.

01:08:13I've already humbled myself

01:08:15and apologized to you.

01:08:16Isn't that enough for you?

01:08:17I don't need your apology,

01:08:18and I have no interest

01:08:19playing hard to get with you.

01:08:21You should be more worried

01:08:22about your white moonlight.

01:08:23Won't Elena go crazy

01:08:24if she finds out

01:08:25you came to see me

01:08:26so publicly today?

01:08:27Don't mention her.

01:08:28We've...

01:08:28We've broken up.

01:08:32Ava,

01:08:33you bitch.

01:08:34If it weren't for you

01:08:35setting me up

01:08:35and making me lose

01:08:36my vice president position,

01:08:37if it weren't for you,

01:08:38I would have long secured

01:08:39my place as Mrs. Vanderbilt.

01:08:40Look at what I've been

01:08:41reduced to now.

01:08:42I will make you pay

01:08:43a hundredfold.

01:08:45I've broken up

01:08:46and gotten back together

01:08:47with her countless times

01:08:48this past year,

01:08:48and I finally realized

01:08:49she's not the innocent girl

01:08:50I fell in love with

01:08:51at Yale back then.

01:08:52She's like a lunadeck.

01:08:53Every time I neglect her,

01:08:54she tries everything

01:08:55to hurt herself,

01:08:55even resorting to using

01:08:56her body.

01:08:57Such a cheap way

01:08:58to win me back.

01:08:59I'm really tired.

01:09:00Logan,

01:09:01I have zero interest

01:09:01in the low-level

01:09:02love-hate drama

01:09:03between you two.

01:09:04If you ask me out

01:09:05just to vent

01:09:05these emotional grievance,

01:09:06then I'm afraid

01:09:07I must excuse myself.

01:09:08Ava,

01:09:09stop acting like a child.

01:09:10Since we're both single,

01:09:11why don't we give

01:09:12a proper relationship a try?

01:09:13I only used to see her

01:09:15as a substitute,

01:09:15but if I really make her

01:09:17my official girlfriend,

01:09:18a queen of finance like her,

01:09:20she would be overwhelmed

01:09:21with gravity

01:09:21and accept me.

01:09:23Give me a chance.

01:09:24Be my girlfriend.

01:09:26I'm sorry,

01:09:27Chairman Logan.

01:09:28I have a husband

01:09:29and what he gives me

01:09:30is always the best.

01:09:32What?

01:09:33What did you say?

01:09:37Ava,

01:09:37this is impossible.

01:09:38All of New York

01:09:39knows you used to be

01:09:40madly in love with me.

01:09:41How could you possibly

01:09:42love someone else?

01:09:43This must be your way

01:09:43of getting back at me.

01:09:44The ring is fake?

01:09:45Your marriage is fake,

01:09:46right?

01:09:47Logan,

01:09:48your arrogance

01:09:48is as nauseating as ever.

01:09:51Put it there

01:09:51and get out,

01:09:52Ava.

01:09:53Don't think doing something

01:09:54will earn you my love.

01:09:55You're just a well-behaved

01:09:56bitch I keep,

01:09:57understand?

01:09:59So he always knew.

01:10:00He always knew

01:10:01how much the old Ava

01:10:02loved him,

01:10:02yet he took everything

01:10:03I gave for granted.

01:10:04Just because of that

01:10:05sponsorship back then,

01:10:06he treated me like

01:10:07a lowly slave,

01:10:08summoning and dismissed

01:10:09me at Willie.

01:10:13All right,

01:10:14I know you're still

01:10:14angry with me.

01:10:16Is it because I made

01:10:17you take the blame

01:10:18for Elena's mistake

01:10:18all those years ago?

01:10:20Or because I made you

01:10:21move out of the villa?

01:10:22I'm not angry with you.

01:10:24It's just that all of that

01:10:25is in the past now.

01:10:26Listen,

01:10:26you can drop the act

01:10:27with that so-called

01:10:28contract boyfriend.

01:10:29I've completely broken

01:10:30things off with Elena.

01:10:31My patience is limited,

01:10:32Ava.

01:10:33Stop making a scene.

01:10:34I can give you

01:10:34a proper title.

01:10:35We can officially

01:10:36be boyfriend and girlfriend.

01:10:37Breaking up?

01:10:39Logan?

01:10:39You want to dump me

01:10:40for this bitch?

01:10:42If I can't have you,

01:10:43no one will.

01:10:45Logan,

01:10:45take back your cheap charity.

01:10:48I've already told you,

01:10:49I have a husband,

01:10:50and he's 10,000 times

01:10:52better than you.

01:10:53There will never be a place

01:10:55for you in my world again.

01:10:56Tomorrow,

01:10:57I'm leaving New York

01:10:58for Los Angeles.

01:11:00We won't be seeing

01:11:01each other again.

01:11:02Leaving?

01:11:03You can't possibly

01:11:05refuse me.

01:11:06I know it.

01:11:07You must have found

01:11:08another so-called

01:11:09boyfriend to trick me

01:11:10again,

01:11:11just like before.

01:11:24It's you?

01:11:25Ava!

01:11:26You're still trying

01:11:27to seduce my husband?

01:11:28You vicious woman,

01:11:30won't you be satisfied

01:11:30until you've driven

01:11:31me to my death?

01:11:33Me seducing your husband?

01:11:36What a joke.

01:11:37Everyone,

01:11:37come and look at this bitch.

01:11:38She used to cling

01:11:39to me and my husband

01:11:40like a stubborn piece

01:11:41of gum that wouldn't

01:11:42come off.

01:11:43Later,

01:11:43to climb the ladder,

01:11:44she shamelessly became

01:11:45Logan's secret mistress

01:11:46for five years,

01:11:47stubbornly staying

01:11:48in the villa

01:11:49and refusing to leave

01:11:50no matter what.

01:11:51Now Logan and I

01:11:51are about to get married,

01:11:52and she actually

01:11:53comes back to harass us

01:11:55like a persistent

01:11:55low-class woman.

01:11:57Do you have any shame left?

01:11:59She looks so well-dressed,

01:12:01actually professional

01:12:02homewrecker.

01:12:03You really see

01:12:04all kinds of people

01:12:05these days.

01:12:06Women who get ahead

01:12:07through improper means

01:12:08have hearts

01:12:08as black as can be.

01:12:10You all be the judge.

01:12:12It's this woman

01:12:13who stole my

01:12:15vice president position

01:12:16and took everything

01:12:17from me.

01:12:18Now that I'm down and out,

01:12:19she comes back

01:12:20flaunting her designer clothes?

01:12:22Ava,

01:12:22why don't you just die,

01:12:23you evil woman?

01:12:25Let him go.

01:12:38You,

01:12:39you bitch,

01:12:40how dare you hit me?

01:12:41Since you love

01:12:42smearing me with dirt so much,

01:12:44this slap is what you deserve.

01:12:46Say one more word,

01:12:47and I'll make you

01:12:48suffer a terrible death.

01:12:52Elena,

01:12:53I don't care what kind

01:12:54of dirty entanglement

01:12:55you still have with Logan.

01:12:57That's your business.

01:12:58Stay away from me

01:12:59from now on.

01:13:01Ava,

01:13:02since you've Aldi

01:13:03rolled out of New York

01:13:04and out of my sight,

01:13:05why do you have to come

01:13:06like a haunting ghost?

01:13:07Elena,

01:13:08don't assume everyone

01:13:09is like you,

01:13:10only capable of

01:13:11clinging to a man.

01:13:12Stop pretending.

01:13:13You came back

01:13:14because you still love Logan

01:13:15and can't let go

01:13:15of his power and influence,

01:13:17right?

01:13:17So now you want to come

01:13:18and humbly be

01:13:19his secret mistress again,

01:13:20just like before,

01:13:21don't you?

01:13:21I won't accept

01:13:22a single word

01:13:23of your slander.

01:13:24I'm here for work.

01:13:25I have my own family

01:13:26and life.

01:13:27As for you,

01:13:28Elena,

01:13:28that pure,

01:13:29selfless,

01:13:30and above-worldy

01:13:31desires white moonlight

01:13:31persona you've

01:13:32meticulously built

01:13:33it for five years

01:13:34has completely crumbled

01:13:35to dust in front of Logan.

01:13:37Since you messed it up

01:13:38yourself,

01:13:39you should figure out

01:13:41a way to beg

01:13:41for his forgiveness

01:13:42yourself.

01:13:44Why come to take it out

01:13:45on an innocent me?

01:13:47I have no obligation

01:13:48to help a woman like you

01:13:49keep a man

01:13:50who's changed his heart.

01:13:53You bitch!

01:13:54Shut up!

01:14:03Logan,

01:14:04why are you so cold to me?

01:14:06You won't even answer

01:14:07my calls?

01:14:08Is it all because

01:14:09of this woman?

01:14:10It's Ava who ruined

01:14:11the future we were

01:14:12supposed to have,

01:14:12isn't it?

01:14:13Elena,

01:14:14wake up.

01:14:15Ava never clung to me.

01:14:16She even finds the thought

01:14:17of seeing me repulsive.

01:14:19Everyone listen up.

01:14:20Elena and I

01:14:21are completely over.

01:14:22So they broke up

01:14:23a long time ago?

01:14:24Then what's this woman

01:14:25doing here

01:14:26pretending to be

01:14:27the rightful white?

01:14:27No.

01:14:29Impossible.

01:14:30Why?

01:14:31Logan,

01:14:31you loved me so much

01:14:32back at Yale.

01:14:33You were even willing

01:14:34to defy your entire

01:14:35family for me.

01:14:36Why don't you love me

01:14:37anymore?

01:14:37Back then,

01:14:38funding you,

01:14:39even putting you

01:14:41in a high position,

01:14:42perhaps is all because

01:14:43I too arrogant.

01:14:45Perhaps what I loved

01:14:46before was just

01:14:47an illusion,

01:14:48a shadow I thought

01:14:49was real.

01:14:51After leaving Ava

01:14:52during countless

01:14:53sleepless nights,

01:14:55I realized that

01:14:56I truly love

01:14:57is actually...

01:15:00Logan,

01:15:01you can't leave?

01:15:02You can't just

01:15:02kick me out like this?

01:15:03Get out of my sight

01:15:04immediately.

01:15:05Otherwise,

01:15:05I won't mind making you

01:15:06disappear from all of

01:15:06New York.

01:15:07Security,

01:15:07drag this crazy woman

01:15:08out.

01:15:09No!

01:15:09Logan!

01:15:10Ava,

01:15:10you bitch!

01:15:10I won't let you

01:15:11get away with this!

01:15:12I am the only one

01:15:13fit to be Mrs. Vanderbilt!

01:15:14Ava,

01:15:16I'm sorry.

01:15:17Logan,

01:15:18we're even now.

01:15:18There's no one

01:15:19who owes anyone

01:15:20an apology.

01:15:21No, Ava.

01:15:22I want to tell you,

01:15:23I love you.

01:15:25It wasn't until

01:15:26you disappeared

01:15:26from my sight

01:15:27that I realized

01:15:28you're the one

01:15:28I love most

01:15:29in this life.

01:15:30Really?

01:15:31Back then,

01:15:32you liked Elena.

01:15:33You always took

01:15:34my efforts for granted,

01:15:35treated me like

01:15:36your slave.

01:15:36It's only now,

01:15:37after you've been

01:15:38together and grown

01:15:39tired of her

01:15:39despicable tricks,

01:15:40that you remember

01:15:41my good points.

01:15:42That's not true.

01:15:43Ava,

01:15:43it wasn't until

01:15:44I officially dated her

01:15:45that I realized

01:15:45how good you are.

01:15:47I started thinking

01:15:48about you like crazy,

01:15:49remembering every

01:15:50late night you

01:15:50stayed up with me,

01:15:51remembering that

01:15:52only you understood

01:15:53my ambitions.

01:15:53I couldn't see

01:15:54my own heart

01:15:55clearly before.

01:15:56It wasn't until

01:15:56I lost you

01:15:57that I understood

01:15:58the one I drooly

01:15:58love is you.

01:15:59Ava,

01:16:00let's start over.

01:16:01Give us a real try,

01:16:02okay?

01:16:03Logan,

01:16:04I'm telling you

01:16:04for the last time,

01:16:05I'm already married.

01:16:09Married?

01:16:10Ava,

01:16:10you must be lying to me.

01:16:12Just like when you

01:16:13found a fake boyfriend

01:16:13in college to make

01:16:14me jealous, right?

01:16:15You must still

01:16:16have feelings for me.

01:16:17Otherwise,

01:16:18why would you go

01:16:18through all this trouble

01:16:19to make up such

01:16:20an absurd lie

01:16:20to deceive me?

01:16:23Logan,

01:16:24if you lay another

01:16:24hand on my wife,

01:16:26don't blame me

01:16:26for being polite.

01:16:27Let me introduce you.

01:16:28This is my husband,

01:16:30Liam,

01:16:30the global chairman

01:16:31of Liberty Financial.

01:16:33Husband,

01:16:34Liam,

01:16:36this can't be.

01:16:37How could this happen?

01:16:39Honey,

01:16:39this is Mr. Logan,

01:16:40the benefactor I mentioned

01:16:41before who supported

01:16:42me at Yale University

01:16:43and also my former friend.

01:16:45Mr. Logan,

01:16:46I've heard so much

01:16:47about you.

01:16:47My wife mentions

01:16:48you often.

01:16:52Enough!

01:16:53Ava,

01:16:54you're quite the actress.

01:16:55To make me give up

01:16:56completely,

01:16:57you even hired

01:16:57a stand-in,

01:16:58didn't you?

01:16:59Stop lying to me!

01:17:00You can only marry me!

01:17:02How could you marry

01:17:02someone else?

01:17:03Logan,

01:17:04I really want to thank you

01:17:05for your past support

01:17:05of Ava.

01:17:07Without your generosity

01:17:08back then,

01:17:08I wouldn't have had the chance

01:17:09to meet such a perfect wife.

01:17:11If the Vanderbilt group

01:17:12ever needs anything

01:17:13from me in the future,

01:17:14I'll be your service

01:17:15as a way for my wife

01:17:17to repay your kindness.

01:17:18Logan,

01:17:19although I'm grateful

01:17:20for your support,

01:17:21it's really getting late.

01:17:22We have to catch

01:17:22our private jet

01:17:23back to Harbor City tomorrow,

01:17:24so we won't keep you

01:17:25any longer.

01:17:27Honey,

01:17:27let's go.

01:17:29Ava,

01:17:30are you really

01:17:31leaving tomorrow?

01:17:33Are you really

01:17:33going to leave

01:17:34my world completely?

01:17:35Yes.

01:17:36Goodbye, Mr. Logan.

01:17:37Bye-bye.

01:17:39Bye-bye.

01:18:10Honey, it's so early.

01:18:13Where are you going?

01:18:14Did I wake you?

01:18:17Be good, I'm going to get you breakfast.

01:18:22So diligent.

01:18:24Didn't you keep saying yesterday how much you liked the burgers here?

01:18:28Today's our last day here.

01:18:29I can't let you go back to Los Angeles with regrets, right?

01:18:34Thank you, honey.

01:18:36Come back soon.

01:18:41Honey, I'll personally take care of ending your troubles for you.

01:18:52So, what do you want to see me about?

01:18:5930 million dollars.

01:19:02Take this money and leave Ava for good.

01:19:04A woman at the pinnacle of finance like her is not someone an ordinary man like you, who relies on

01:19:09his looks, can aspire to.

01:19:11This money is enough for you to squagger for the rest of your life.

01:19:14Name your price, and stay away from her.

01:19:20You're telling me to leave, Ava.

01:19:25What, not enough?

01:19:27Liam, don't play the top-tier tycoon in front of me.

01:19:30I've looked into you.

01:19:31Back at Yale University, you were just a poor student, barely scraping by on scholarships and part-time works.

01:19:38That ingrained poverty-straken air about you, you can't wash it off no matter how many suits you change into.

01:19:48For someone like you, who's already bankrupt and can't even afford the liquidation bills,

01:19:53these 30 million dollars are indeed enough for you to live like a nouveau riche in the slums for the

01:19:58rest of your life.

01:20:00You still only know how to measure everything with this filthy money.

01:20:04Ava choosing you is truly blind.

01:20:11Talking to me about money?

01:20:13Logan, back then you treated Ava as a substitute for Elena,

01:20:17summoning her at will and dismissing her just as easily.

01:20:20With those pitiful so-called funding resources and a few charity black cards,

01:20:25you actually thought you could buy out her entire five years of use and dignity.

01:20:30The moment you pushed her out to take the fall for that woman and left her to fend for herself

01:20:35in the rain,

01:20:36you completely lost the right to stand here and talk about her in that tone with me.

01:20:50What are you doing?

01:20:51Who gave you permission to touch my things?

01:20:54This is the Vanderbilt Group!

01:20:55Mr. Logan, we're finished.

01:20:57Because of those shell company guarantee slips Elena signed,

01:20:59plus the FBI case against her for selling sub-bedroom construction equipment privately,

01:21:02the court declared us officially bankrupt an hour ago.

01:21:05Bankrupt's impossible.

01:21:06When Ava was here, we were still the financial leader of Manhattan.

01:21:08How long has it been?

01:21:09How could we possibly go bankrupt?

01:21:11Get out!

01:21:11Don't touch my assets!

01:21:12This is my empire!

01:21:14Mr. Logan, please keep your distance.

01:21:15The liquidation process has already begun.

01:21:17If you continue to interfere with official duties, we will be forced to take action.

01:21:26I'm such a fool.

01:21:27Ava was clearly the one holding up the empire,

01:21:30and I kicked her out of the company to protect that useless waste, Elena.

01:21:43Elena just joined Vanderbilt Group.

01:21:45She is my chosen future wife,

01:21:46and her record absolutely cannot have any blemish.

01:22:02If Ava were still here, the company wouldn't have collapsed.

01:22:06I'd still be that arrogant CEO.

01:22:08Now it's all gone.

01:22:10Logan, I have no interest in that position anymore.

01:22:13I spent five years by your side as a substitute,

01:22:15handling countless shady bad debts for you,

01:22:17and even took a bullet for Elena.

01:22:18The debts I owed have long been paid off.

01:22:20We are even now.

01:22:21I always felt that she owed me something,

01:22:22and that all the sacrifices she made were deserved.

01:22:24I was wrong.

01:22:25Ridiculously wrong.

01:22:31Chairman,

01:22:31I personally spent half a month in Silicon Valley

01:22:34to poach this sales genius, Carter.

01:22:37With him on board,

01:22:38no one can touch Vanderbilt's market share in North America.

01:22:42This man's background is indeed clean and formidable.

01:22:47And these offshore projects, I've been tracking them for two years.

01:22:51I've pinzily done all the risk assessments.

01:22:53As long as I'm here, none of your decisions will go wrong.

01:22:57If Ava were still by my side,

01:22:59I'd still be that top heir surrounded by admirers.

01:23:02She would have handled all the trouble.

01:23:07It wasn't until today that I realized

01:23:09the person who loved me most in this world

01:23:11was actually destroyed by my own hands.

01:23:18What is Elena?

01:23:19She's not even one ten thousandth of Ava.

01:23:21I've lost the most precious treasure in the world.

01:23:24No, I can't give up like this.

01:23:25I believe Ava still loves me.

01:23:27I have to find her, win her back.

01:23:30Ava! Don't go! Ava!

01:23:33Young man, you've got some nerve blocking my car.

01:23:35But you are quite a looker.

01:23:37I just got rid of my last boy toy, you know.

01:23:39If you behave, I might just take you under my wing.

01:23:42Get away from me!

01:23:44Don't you dare touch me with your filthy hands!

01:23:46Get lost!

01:23:47A down-and-out loser putting on airs?

01:23:50You don't know what's good for you.

01:23:58What's wrong?

01:24:00Nothing.

01:24:01I just remembered a really good restaurant.

01:24:03Let me take you there.

01:24:05Sure.

01:24:10You order first.

01:24:12I'm going to the restroom.

01:24:13Okay.

01:24:15Okay.

01:24:29Hello, this is the chairman of Vanderbilt.

01:24:32Who is this?

01:24:33This is Liam, chairman of Liberty Financial.

01:24:36Mr. Liam, what can I do for you with this sudden call?

01:24:39I think you should discipline your son, Logan, properly.

01:24:42Ava is my wife now, my beloved.

01:24:44And your son has been acting like a madman these past few days,

01:24:48severely disrupting our family life,

01:24:50even daring to challenge my bottom line.

01:24:54I understand what you mean.

01:24:56I'll handle it.

01:25:07Hey, Dad.

01:25:08You bastard.

01:25:09Do you have any idea who you're messing with?

01:25:11Ava is now the wife of Liam,

01:25:13the founder of the global financial giant Liberty Financial,

01:25:16a chairman worth hundreds of billions.

01:25:19What?

01:25:19Listen, if you want to keep your life,

01:25:22get your ass home right now.

01:25:23Otherwise, I'll announce today

01:25:25that I'm stripping you of all your inheritance rights

01:25:27and you're out of the Vanderbilt family for good.

01:25:32What?

01:25:33Liam, is that mysterious mastermind behind Liberty?

01:25:37Impossible.

01:25:38Absolutely impossible.

01:25:39That man who just seemed to buy breakfast

01:25:40and take care of kids for Ava

01:25:42is actually the titan who holds the global financial lifeline

01:25:45worth hundreds of billions?

01:25:46I actually, I actually dared to think I could

01:25:48with a mere $30 million.

01:25:50What the hell have I done?

01:26:06Elena, if that loser Logan knew

01:26:09you were keeping a man in his marital bed,

01:26:11wouldn't he go crazy on the spot?

01:26:14He's busy dealing with the FBI's bankruptcy investigation right now.

01:26:18How could he have the time to care about me?

01:26:20You're really ruthless.

01:26:21You emptied his overseas accounts,

01:26:23brought down his Vanderbilt group,

01:26:24and yet you secured a $50 million escape route for yourself.

01:26:27I do love this foolish man,

01:26:29but I only love his money.

01:26:30Now that he has no more use value,

01:26:32of course I need to find someone younger and more obedient.

01:26:34Elena!

01:26:35What are you doing?

01:26:38Have you no shame?

01:26:40Messing around in my villa,

01:26:42on my bed?

01:26:43You heartless woman!

01:26:45I was truly blind back then

01:26:46to have abandoned Ava for someone like you.

01:26:51Logan.

01:26:52Have you lost your mind?

01:26:54I just brought a friend back to have some fun.

01:26:56Is it worth getting so worked up over?

01:26:58You're my fiancé.

01:27:00You're using my money to support other men,

01:27:02and you expect me not to be angry?

01:27:03Stop pretending to be so devoted.

01:27:05Back at Yale, I changed men every day,

01:27:07all funded by the money you gave me.

01:27:09Did you really think I loved you?

01:27:10I loved the Vanderbilt family behind you,

01:27:12the one that could buy me her mess

01:27:13and get me to the Grammy Awards.

01:27:15Logan, this guy's a broke, debt-rended bankrupt up now.

01:27:17There's no need for us to waste words on him.

01:27:19You swindled all my money and ruined the company.

01:27:21I'm going to send you to prison.

01:27:23Black has already helped me transfer the money out.

01:27:25He's my true love now.

01:27:27You're history.

01:27:32I used to fawn over you like a dog

01:27:34because you were supporting me.

01:27:36Now you're not even as good as a stray dog.

01:27:39What do you think you are?

01:27:43I paid for your college.

01:27:45I paid for you to come back and be vice president.

01:27:47For you, Ava left.

01:27:48My company is gone.

01:27:50How could you do this to me?

01:27:51That's because you were willing to be the sucker.

01:27:54Who's to blame for your stupidity?

01:27:56Now you don't have a single penny left.

01:27:58What gives you the right to tell me what to do?

01:28:00Black, let's go.

01:28:01This place reeks of sour failure.

01:28:03Let's find another hotel to continue.

01:28:05You got it.

01:28:07I'll make sure to serve my queen well today.

01:28:09Stop!

01:28:10Give back all the money you swindled from me.

01:28:12Every single cent I ever spent on you.

01:28:15Dream on.

01:28:16That's the compensation you owe me for my youth.

01:28:18Get lost.

01:28:20Ava, I was wrong.

01:28:21It turns out you were the only one in this world

01:28:23who truly cared for me

01:28:24and I lost the woman who loved me most in life.

01:28:26Elena.

01:28:27You ruined me.

01:28:29And I swear I won't let you get away with it.

01:28:43Ava, I just received news from Heicheng.

01:28:46The Vanderbilt Group has been completely liquidated

01:28:48due to the failure of several fatal gambling agreements,

01:28:50plus the major engineering accident

01:28:52caused by the batch of construction equipment

01:28:54Elena was responsible for.

01:28:55Hmm.

01:28:56Aren't you the least bit curious?

01:28:59Without you, the anchor that held everything together,

01:29:01that empire once hailed as unsinkable,

01:29:04has collapsed so quickly.

01:29:05It's not surprising at all.

01:29:07From the moment I walked out of that office,

01:29:10Logan and his company have been nothing

01:29:11but a moldy old debt in my life.

01:29:13If it's trash,

01:29:15it's only a matter of time before it gets cleaned up.

01:29:17There's something even more interesting.

01:29:19Logan, driven by extreme hatred

01:29:21because Elena took his last life string

01:29:23and publicly humiliated him,

01:29:25killed Elena on the streets of Manhattan.

01:29:27He's facing the most severe charges.

01:29:32He has only himself to blame for falling to the state,

01:29:35for loving a poison he shouldn't have.

01:29:37But the people and things in that ruin

01:29:38have nothing to do with me anymore.

01:29:40All I want now is to build our life well.

01:29:42Right.

01:29:45But tonight, we have an important topic to discuss.

01:29:50I haven't heard about any meeting tonight.

01:29:52The topic I'm talking about

01:29:54is how many lively and adorable little babies

01:29:57we're going to have.

01:29:58is how many people and how many people

01:29:58We're going to have a great time.

01:29:59We're going to have a great time.
