Short filmTranscript
00:00:02I've been this man's mistress for five years. I loved him, but he only saw me as a substitute.
00:00:07I don't regret it, because those five years of humility were the debt I owed him.
00:00:15Elena's back in the country. Just landed. You need to leave this villa.
00:00:18Now?
00:00:19Immediately. Clean up any trace of you having lived here. I don't want her to know you slept here.
00:00:23Okay. Elena is back. My days as the substitute are finally over. I'm finally free.
00:00:30In our freshman year, both Elena and I were poor students living on scholarships.
00:00:34But with that innocent face of hers, she became the goddess of every man on campus, including the heir to
00:00:39a top-tier family, Logan.
00:00:41Elena, come to the Grammy Awards with me. Seats like these aren't something you can just buy with money.
00:00:45Sorry, I need to go to the library to study. Mr. Logan, your money can buy everything, but it can't
00:00:50buy my respect.
00:00:54You're broke too, right? Help me win her over. If she falls for me, I'll fund you.
00:00:58I knew Elena was just playing hard to get, but my father was hospitalized, and I was even about to
00:01:02drop out of school because of it.
00:01:03So I desperately needed that money to save him. Deal.
00:01:05Elena got a top-clear university offer to Cambridge funded by Logan, and I, I became her substitute.
00:01:12Logan's caged canori.
00:01:16They think I've been discarded, but I'll become the laughing-ass dame of the world.
00:01:24Miss Ava, Lucas, the chief of Operation Liberty Finance, been waiting for you for three hours, ready to sign the
00:01:28contract with you.
00:01:32Okay.
00:01:34Actually, the life that truly belongs to me is just beginning.
00:01:37Having broken free from the shackles of the debt of gratitude, I will become the queen of this world.
00:01:48Ava, it's been five years. Our CEO has been waiting for you to say yes.
00:01:52I'll book you a first-class ticket right now.
00:01:56All right, I'll head over now.
00:01:59Give me one more week. I still have some loose ends to tie up.
00:02:03You are a born queen of commerce.
00:02:05We await your leadership to make us a legend on Wall Street.
00:02:08Boss, great news. Ava signed.
00:02:11That genius girl who once ruled Wall Street is coming.
00:02:13Five years.
00:02:14I can finally see my light again.
00:02:21Ava, you're too slow. Can't you see Elena's hands are red from the shopping bags?
00:02:26Ava, I'm so sorry. These are just too heavy. I have to trouble you with them?
00:02:29It's no trouble at all. Happy to help.
00:02:31By the way, I found a woman's hair tie in Logan's bedroom. It wouldn't be yours, would it?
00:02:35Elena, don't talk nonsense. That was left by the cleaning staff.
00:02:38Ava moved out. After you left, how could she possibly be in my bedroom?
00:02:42Just kidding. Look how nervous you are.
00:02:43Justine Remichin. Ava, go line up for that limited edition item for us. Hurry up.
00:02:48Ava, Elena's quite conservative. I don't want her to hear any gossip about these five years.
00:02:52Trying to boyfriend meaty so Elena won't suspect anything.
00:02:54Fine. I'll find a suitable diversion.
00:02:59His real princess has returned. It's time for this substitute to exit Isaac's world.
00:03:07Sorry, I just got off the phone with an international headhunter.
00:03:10All the big companies want to pojic me.
00:03:12Of course they do. Here, try this. It's all your favorites.
00:03:16Ava, why aren't you touching your cutlery? This seafood was flown in fresh. It's very expensive.
00:03:20I'm not hungry.
00:03:21Oh, I remember now. You're allergic to seafood. Logan, should we change restaurants?
00:03:25No need. She said she's not hungry.
00:03:27He knows perfectly well I'm allergic to seafood, and he knows Elena chose this place on purpose.
00:03:31It seems he doesn't care about my feelings at all.
00:03:34Ava, I invited a few old classmates tonight. Welcome Elena back. She missed your home-cooked meals.
00:03:38Go back to the villa tonight and prepare you a feast.
00:03:39All right. Logan, Ava is, after all, the group's executive president. Isn't it inappropriate to her cook like a maid?
00:03:44What's inappropriate about it? Everything she has today is thanks to my support.
00:03:48As long as I ask, she wouldn't dare say no. Right, Ava?
00:03:51Yes, Mr. Logan.
00:04:00Logan, are you serious? Ava's been with you for five years, and you're really going to kick her out?
00:04:05Who said I was in a relationship with her? She was just a stand-in for Elena.
00:04:09Don't show anything in front of Elena. She's proud. She knew I used Ava as a substitute. She did feel
00:04:13insult.
00:04:13You're so devoted. You've had your eyes on Elena since college.
00:04:15But honestly, Ava is incredibly capable. Not only did she manage her company flawlessly, but she was also obedient in
00:04:19bed.
00:04:19Are you really willing to let her go? The passenger seat in my life is reserved only for a real
00:04:23princess.
00:04:24As for Ava, she's not worthy.
00:04:27Ava? What are you doing standing at the door with the fruit platter spacing out?
00:04:38Oh my god. Was Ava at the door just now? Did she hear everything we said about her being cheap?
00:04:43So what if she did? Does she dare to get angry? Unless she wants to go back to the slums
00:04:47and beg for food.
00:04:49Mmm, so sweet. Logan, this personal assistant you keep really is better at cutting fruit than the hired help outside.
00:04:55Everyone thinks I'll break down, but I'm actually more clean-headed than anyone.
00:04:57In these five years, he never gave me love, and I, in turn, never truly gave him my heart.
00:05:02The fruit platter is ready. The main course will be served shortly.
00:05:06She clearly heard those words herds just now way so much you have any reaction at all. Doesn't she care?
00:05:10Logan, we're partying here while the executive vice president is busy alone in the kitchen.
00:05:13Isn't that a bit too much?
00:05:14Hmph. This is what she's supposed to do. Let's keep playing.
00:05:19Ava, you've worked hard. Come join us and eat.
00:05:23I'm not hungry. Enjoy yourselves.
00:05:26Don't mind her. Let's toast to celebrate Elena's return home.
00:05:29Elena, you're our goddess. This drink is to wish you a triumphant entry into the Vanderbilt Group upon your return
00:05:34and a brilliant future.
00:05:35I, I'm allergic to alcohol. I really can't drink something that strong.
00:05:38Old classmate, that's not very considerate, is it? You have to at least make a gesture.
00:05:42Elena's delicate and can't handle this kind of thing.
00:05:45Ava, come here and drink it for her.
00:05:47Fine.
00:05:55Logan, you're spoiling Elena too much. Anyone who toasts her, you make Ava take the hit?
00:05:59Abba has a high tolerance. A little of this strong liquor won't hurt her.
00:06:02Then I have to toast the goddess too. Ava, cheers?
00:06:05Everything is about to end. In these last few days with Logan, I won't refuse any requests you make.
00:06:12Ava, thank you for your hard work. I really wouldn't know what to do without you.
00:06:15So, even someone as arrogant and self-hortant as Logan can be tender-hearted.
00:06:19It's a pity that the one who helps in the promise will never be me.
00:06:25I don't like hearing those classmates linking you with Ava, even if she's just a substitute.
00:06:29Baby, my heart is yours. Ava is just our servant.
00:06:33You had a few glasses of champagne. Are you feeling dizzy?
00:06:36Don't be jealous for no reason. I've already declared to everyone that you are the future mistress of the group.
00:06:41I'll forgive you this time.
00:06:42Ava, you were really drunk. Let Logan drive you back to your apartment.
00:06:45No need. I can walk by myself.
00:06:47I have important business to attend to. Take a tax yourself.
00:06:50Ava, don't make me think you can't even take care of yourself.
00:07:08Ava, didn't I tell you to find a man as a shield immediately? Why is there still no movement?
00:07:13I just finished being forced to drink by you, Mr. Logan.
00:07:16Don't play the victim with me. You're dragging your feet. Are you still holding on to some unrealistic fantasy about
00:07:22me?
00:07:26I didn't, Mr. Logan. Don't worry. I'll find one soon.
00:07:29Don't lie. Elena is starting to suspect us. I won't allow you to tarnish the pure love between her and
00:07:34me.
00:07:34Don't worry. One more week, and I'll disappear completely from your world.
00:07:39So eager to jump into someone else's arms. That shield better be a decent one. Don't embarrass me.
00:07:51You told me to find one?
00:07:53You're so obedient, it's disgusting.
00:07:57Logan, I miss you. Can I move into your villa tomorrow?
00:07:59Of course, baby. My room is always waiting for you.
00:08:05Pick me and Elena up at 8 tomorrow morning to go to the company.
00:08:10What are your plans after returning? Where do you want to go?
00:08:13I want to help you with the Vandeboe Group. I don't want to be just a freeloader.
00:08:16Good. I'll give you a surprise later.
00:08:19I want the whole world to know who the real mistress of this company is.
00:08:22Actually, I got a top-tier master's in finance abroad just to help you.
00:08:26We're here.
00:08:27Darling, it's my first day. We should keep our distance.
00:08:29I don't want people saying I got the job through connections. That wouldn't be noble.
00:08:33See? She's still as pure and independent as she was in college.
00:08:36Newman nowadays will do anything to climb the ladder.
00:08:37From a simple general and her considerate, maybe she's the only one.
00:08:40Notify the board. We're having an all-hands executive meeting in 10 minutes.
00:08:44I have major personnel changes.
00:08:45All right. I'll take care of it right away.
00:08:50I heard there will be a major personnel announcement today.
00:08:52Ava doubled the company's performance, so she's definitely getting promoted to co-CEO at the headquarters.
00:08:56Naturally. Vanderbilt Group has relied entirely on Ava for the past five years.
00:08:59Based on merit, it has to be her.
00:09:00Ava, don't forget about us when you get promoted.
00:09:02Actually, I was just about to...
00:09:04Only one thing will be announced today.
00:09:08Regarding the appointment of the former executive vice president, Ava.
00:09:10Congratulations. Is Ava being transferred to the New York headquarters as CEO?
00:09:14No. I announce Ava is hereby relieved of her position as executive vice president
00:09:18and demoted to vice president's assistant.
00:09:21What?
00:09:22Demoted instead of promoted? To an assistant?
00:09:24Mr. Logan, Ava generated a billion dollars in profit for the company last year.
00:09:27And the person taking over the vice president position is a financial genius we just recruited
00:09:30from Cambridge, Miss Elena.
00:09:33Hello, everyone. Although I lack practical experience, I believe my international perspective
00:09:37is more suited to leading the company to a higher level.
00:09:39This is absurd. Replacing a meritorious vice president with an inexperienced rookie?
00:09:42Enough. Who is the master of this company?
00:09:44My word is the command.
00:09:46Ava, as an assistant, you'd better do your utmost to help Elena familiar herself with business.
00:09:51If she makes the slightest mistake, I'll hold you covered.
00:09:54Okay.
00:09:56Ava, are you crazy? This is too humiliating.
00:09:58I have never objected to Mr. Logan's decisions.
00:10:01Vice president Elena, please follow me to your office.
00:10:03Then I'll trouble you, assistant Ava.
00:10:05This is your office.
00:10:06Assistant Ava, there's a bit of dust on the tip of my shoe.
00:10:10Since you were so skilled at serving Logan before now, clean it for me too.
00:10:17Is Elena crazy? She's actually making Ava clean her shoes?
00:10:20This is a downright insult to her dignity.
00:10:21Don't be impulsive.
00:10:22Ava must have her reasons for doing this.
00:10:25Oh my God, Ava's really kneeling down to clean them?
00:10:28This is absurd.
00:10:29Ava, I'm warning you.
00:10:30Back then, it was because of me that Logan even gave you a second glance.
00:10:33Without me, you'd still be washing dishes in the slums.
00:10:35It's thanks to my face that you've climbed to where you are today.
00:10:38Does it hurt?
00:10:39Remember this feeling of lowiness.
00:10:41You're nothing but a dog I've graciously allowed to exist.
00:10:43Don't even think about overstepping your bounds, and don't you dare try to seduce my Logan.
00:10:47Don't worry, Elena.
00:10:48I'm very clear about my place in Mr. Logan's heart.
00:10:50I've never coveted things that don't belong to me.
00:10:52Stubborn words are useless.
00:10:54Honey, want to go see a movie tonight?
00:10:55There's a new project at Universal Studios.
00:10:57I'll wait for you.
00:10:58Okay, see you then.
00:10:59You already have a boyfriend?
00:11:00Logan, I have good news for you.
00:11:02Ava has a boyfriend.
00:11:03I thought she had a crush on you all along.
00:11:04It seems I was overthinking it.
00:11:05I think you've misunderstood.
00:11:06The relationship between me and President Logan is purely one of sponsorship and employment.
00:11:09I've never had any appropriate thoughts.
00:11:11Furn over.
00:11:11I love my boyfriend very much.
00:11:12Damn it.
00:11:13I just told her last night to find a male companion, and she's already found one today.
00:11:16Is there really not an angle placed for me in her heart?
00:11:18Perfect.
00:11:19In a few days, there's a company team-building event to celebrate my appointment.
00:11:21Ava, bring your non-powing along.
00:11:22Let's see you just tuck stranding the man who chunk her on an or new Jillian Jenries.
00:11:25Yes, I'm also him curious.
00:11:27Ava, bring him along then.
00:11:28No problem.
00:11:29Mr. Logan, we have an appointment with Mr. Grant from Grant Financial Groups to sign the contract.
00:11:32It's the most important order of the year.
00:11:33Elena, this deal is crucial for the company's IPO.
00:11:35We must secure it.
00:11:36Don't worry, darling.
00:11:37With my overseas background, I guarantee we'll nail the negotiation beautifully.
00:11:42Mr. Grant, this is Ms. Elena, the company's new vice president.
00:11:44She's fully responsible for today's contract renewal negotiation.
00:11:46What?
00:11:47I remember Grant Financial's business has always been handled by you.
00:11:49Who is this administrative rookie?
00:11:50Mr. Grant, Ava is now just my assistant.
00:11:53The future of Vandert Group is controlled by elites like me with an international vision.
00:11:56Please sign.
00:11:57I hope your abilities are as impressive as your academic predictions.
00:12:00What are you looking at?
00:12:01Pervert, you're actually peeking at me.
00:12:03What nonsense are you talking about?
00:12:04I'm reading the 12th clause about compensating...
00:12:06Stop pretending.
00:12:07I've seen plenty of self-righteous men like you.
00:12:09It's disgusting.
00:12:10Don't think just because you're rich you can casually harass women.
00:12:13You dare hit me?
00:12:14I'm hitting you, you pervert.
00:12:15I'll use Logan's connections to ruin your reputation in New York.
00:12:17Vanderbilt Group letting a paranoid lunark like this be vice president means bankruptcy is just around the corner.
00:12:21The deal is off, and I will withdraw all funding from Grant Financial.
00:12:23Mr. Grant, this is a misunderstanding.
00:12:25Please let me explain.
00:12:26Ava, I pity you, wasting your talent in this garbage dump.
00:12:28Vanderbilt Group is finished.
00:12:31Elena, you've destroyed company's most important changing.
00:12:33It's just some disgusting man who can't control his eyes.
00:12:35What's the big deal?
00:12:36Logan will handle it.
00:12:45Why are you dressed like this?
00:12:54Can you pretend to be my boyfriend?
00:12:56For one night?
00:12:56The pay is $3,000.
00:13:00Don't worry, sis.
00:13:01I'm a professional.
00:13:02I guarantee I'll make your colleagues stare.
00:13:05Remember, talk less later.
00:13:06Don't give us away.
00:13:07Don't worry.
00:13:07I'm certified in playing the affectionate puppy dog type.
00:13:12Wow, Ava.
00:13:13This couldn't be your Mr. Right, could it?
00:13:15That outfit is terrifying.
00:13:16Little brother, what high position do you hold?
00:13:18Hello, sis.
00:13:19I'm the hottest space blogger on the entire internet.
00:13:21Search for Grits Aquos to find me.
00:13:22Remember to follow and send me a sports car.
00:13:23Logan, your former vice president's taste is truly unique.
00:13:26But then again, this kind of influencer who lives off their looks is a perfect match for
00:13:28her status.
00:13:29Ava, I never thought your taste was this poor, that you'd stoop so low as to hire such a cheap
00:13:33performer.
00:13:33Why not?
00:13:34In my heart, he's much more genuine than those hypocritical elites.
00:13:39True, bottom feeders love this kind of influencer the most.
00:13:42By the way, all the guests have arrived.
00:13:44Didn't you say you had a special welcome back gift for me?
00:13:47Hey, I haven't even started showing off my acting skills yet.
00:13:49Why did they leave?
00:13:49Enough.
00:13:50Your job is done.
00:13:51The final payment has been sent.
00:13:53Go.
00:13:53Thanks, sponsor sis.
00:14:00You know, this is a welcome gift to celebrate your official entry into the Vanderbilt Group.
00:14:04Oh, darling, it's so beautiful.
00:14:07It's perfect.
00:14:11Ava, does this Rolex look good with my skin tone?
00:14:16It does.
00:14:19If it weren't for paying off that astronomical debt for my family, I wouldn't have sold myself
00:14:23to Loken.
00:14:24I could have had the purest love too, right?
00:14:35Miss Ava, tomorrow is the day you officially take over as CEO of Liberty Financial.
00:14:39Mr. Liam and I are both waiting for you.
00:14:41Don't worry, I'll be there on time tomorrow.
00:14:43The contract is signed and I won't break it.
00:14:45Excellent.
00:14:46We are very much looking forward to your leadership.
00:14:48The time for farewell has finally come.
00:14:50Logan, thank you for the financial support back then, for saving my critically ill mother
00:14:54and for giving me a foothold in this cold city.
00:14:56Thank you for giving me the dream of a rebirth, even though I knew that in your heart, I would
00:14:59always be just a humble shadow.
00:15:01I heard you're the poorest student who needs money the most.
00:15:03Help me win over Elena and I'll fund you through college.
00:15:08Elena, don't leave me.
00:15:11For these five years, I dutifully served as his substitute, accompanying him through his
00:15:15darkest hours.
00:15:16In my heart, you were once an unreachable star, but I'm tired.
00:15:19Goodbye, my former obsession.
00:15:21Goodbye, my shattered youth.
00:15:22Chairman Logan, this glass, I toast to you.
00:15:27Thank you for all your care over the years.
00:15:29Today I'd like to talk to you about my-
00:15:30Chairman, it's terrible.
00:15:31Grant Financial just formally issued a legal letter, announcing a complete withdrawal of
00:15:34investment and suing us for a bridge of contract.
00:15:36The company's stock price has already hit the limit down.
00:15:42Chairman, something terrible has happened.
00:15:44Grant Financial has not only dominated all cooperation, but has also joined forces with
00:15:48the four major investment banks on Wall Street to launch a comprehensive blockade against us.
00:15:52How is that possible?
00:15:53Grant has been our staunch ally for five years.
00:15:55Why would they suddenly turn against us?
00:15:57On the day of the signing, Vice President Elena maliciously speculated that Chairman Grant was
00:16:00peeping at her, and even slapped him in public.
00:16:02He insulted me first.
00:16:03He was staring at my chest.
00:16:05I was just defending my dignity as a woman.
00:16:07Ava, I told you to assist Elena.
00:16:08Are you dead?
00:16:09Grant Financial is the source of half of our company's funding.
00:16:12Don't you understand the consequences of offending such a giant?
00:16:14If you had stopped this foolish behavior in time, how could things have got this wrong?
00:16:17Sheridan, Miss Ava tried her best to stop it, and even demanded Elena apologize immediately.
00:16:21It was Elena who wouldn't listen, and even threatened Miss Ava.
00:16:23That's right.
00:16:24If Miss Ava hadn't intervened, Elena would have probably torn the other party to shreds right there
00:16:27in the conference room.
00:16:29Ava.
00:16:30Even if she stopped you, couldn't you have called me directly?
00:16:32Where is your professionalism?
00:16:33You actually concealed such a catastrophic disaster and didn't report it.
00:16:35Chairman, President Amba was about to report it at the time, but Vice President Elena said
00:16:39she would communicate with you personally.
00:16:40It seems she didn't mention a single word.
00:16:42Honey, I just wanted to find the right time to explain.
00:16:44I didn't know that man would be so petty.
00:16:45Chairman, the board of directors at headquarters demands you return for a meeting immediately.
00:16:48They hope you give to German a reasonable explanation.
00:16:52Ava, come with me.
00:16:59Elena just joined Vanderbilt Group.
00:17:01She is my chosen future wife, and her record absolutely cannot have any blemish.
00:17:06So, you plan to make me the scapegoat?
00:17:07I will personally submit a report to the board.
00:17:09It will state that it was your overstepping and probation that angered Mr. Grant and led
00:17:13to the withdrawal of funds.
00:17:14Don't worry.
00:17:15Once the dust settles, I'll find a way to bring you back.
00:17:17Making me take the bullet for him again.
00:17:19In these five years, how many messes have I cleaned up for him?
00:17:21How many times have I been the fall guy?
00:17:22Logan, how can you be so at ease without an even seal of quills?
00:17:26Logan, one should be responsible for one's own actions.
00:17:29If Ava isn't healing, just let me resign and take the blame.
00:17:31I don't want to see you in a difficult position because of me.
00:17:34Ava, do you really need me to beg you?
00:17:36You handled taking the fall so perfectly before.
00:17:38Why are you acting so unwilling in front of Elena?
00:17:39Don't you know your stubbornness now is destroying all our hard work?
00:17:45Fine.
00:17:46This one last time.
00:17:48I'll take the bullet for you one last time.
00:17:51Why did she agree so readily?
00:17:52Why is she leaving so decisively this time?
00:17:54Could it be, I really went too far?
00:17:56Darling, stop thinking about that assistant.
00:17:58She took your money.
00:17:58It's her honor to take the fall for me.
00:17:59Today is my first celebration after joining the company.
00:18:02Don't keep the executives waiting.
00:18:03What are you feeling guilty about?
00:18:04Ava is just a dog.
00:18:06Even if she occasionally gets upset, long you give her some luxury goods.
00:18:10She like Logri Chen-ni at your foot that's your runt.
00:18:13Let's go.
00:18:13Tonight, you are the only star.
00:18:20What are you doing here?
00:18:21Mr. Grant, I am here on behalf of the group to formally apologize to you.
00:18:25To Vice President Elena, and to the glory that awaits us.
00:18:28Congratulations, Elena.
00:18:29Cheers.
00:18:30Get out with your chief apology.
00:18:32Tell Logan to kneel before me himself, or this isn't over.
00:18:38In New York, no one dares to touch Grant's face.
00:18:40You want to make peace?
00:18:41Dream on.
00:18:42Mr. Grant, I take full responsibility for this matter.
00:18:44As long as you can calm down, we are willing to bear all responsibility and provide compensation.
00:18:48You calm me down?
00:18:49Sure.
00:18:49If you drink all of these, I'll consider withdrawing the lawyer's letter.
00:18:52Fine.
00:18:52Wait a minute.
00:18:53Since you're taking the blame for someone else, you should at least have the posture of begging,
00:18:57right?
00:18:57Drink on your knee.
00:18:58That's right.
00:18:58In this city of New York, no one who asks Grant for a favor does it standing up.
00:19:03What?
00:19:04Can't stand the humiliation?
00:19:05Then get out.
00:19:23Elena, the future of the Vanderbilt Group depends on you to lead us to new heights.
00:19:27Congratulations, Miss Elena, on securing your throne.
00:19:30Cheers.
00:19:34I wonder if that woman, Ava, can get Grant's letter of understanding.
00:19:56Oh, my God.
00:19:57Ava just released a public statement.
00:19:59She announced she takes full responsibility for the Grant withdrawal incident and is formally
00:20:02resigning.
00:20:05Resigning?
00:20:06She dares to resign?
00:20:09Ava, what the hell are you trying to do?
00:20:11Who gave you permission to leave me at a time like this?
00:20:13Why is Logan losing control like this just because Ava resigned?
00:20:16That look in his eyes.
00:20:17He's never shown it to me.
00:20:18Could it be he still loves Ava?
00:20:22Your funding back then allowed me to finish college.
00:20:25You truly were the only beam of light in the darkest night of my life.
00:20:28Over these five years, I've made you profits a hundredfold.
00:20:31All my savings are in this card, enough to offset all your benevolency from back then.
00:20:35Goodbye forever, Logan.
00:20:40Ava, these reports must be redone before the end of the day today.
00:20:43Also, go to that Michelin-starred restaurant at Moon and queue up to make a reservation
00:20:46for me.
00:20:46Logan likes their truffles.
00:20:47You can keep this garbage and chew on it yourself.
00:20:49As for making a reservation, if you're not so useless that your legs are broken, go roll
00:20:53over there yourself.
00:20:54I'm no longer an employee here.
00:20:55You have no right to order me around.
00:20:57Ava, where do you get the nerve to talk to me like that?
00:20:59Without me, you're not even fit to shine Logan's shoes.
00:21:01Since you want to get lost, get lost far away.
00:21:03Disappear from New York completely and don't come back wagging your tail like a stray dog.
00:21:05Elena, you've played the part of that pure money disdaining white new night very successfully.
00:21:09But remember, a play is just a play.
00:21:11When Logan discovers the rot beneath that skin of yours, I hope you can still smile so brightly.
00:21:24Chairman, the accounts are settled.
00:21:26Thank you for the hell you've given me all these years.
00:21:29It's made me invincible.
00:21:39Ava, you really left?
00:21:41How dare she leave without my permission?
00:21:45Ava, I'll use all my votes on the board to keep you.
00:21:48I haven't approved this resignation report yet.
00:21:50Get back to the company right now.
00:21:52Chairman Logan, there's no need.
00:21:53The nature of this withdrawal incident is extremely severe.
00:21:56Vanderbilt Group must give the other party an explanation, and I am the best scapegoat.
00:21:59You make a good point.
00:22:00Let's ride out this storm first.
00:22:02Once those old guys calm down, I'll bring you back.
00:22:04Also, take that black card on the table.
00:22:06It's your compensation.
00:22:07I never intended for you to pay back that tuition money.
00:22:09Chairman, I don't like owing debts, and I especially don't like owing favors.
00:22:12The money in that card was what you funded me with for university.
00:22:15I paid it all back to you.
00:22:16Ava, because I let Elena take your position and made you take the fall for her that you're unhappy?
00:22:19You have to understand my predicament.
00:22:21Elena just returned to the country.
00:22:22She needs a perfect resume to solidify her position in the company.
00:22:25Your abilities are known throughout New York.
00:22:27Even if you take this blame, it won't hurt your foundation at all.
00:22:29I'm not angry.
00:22:30In fact, I'm even grateful for taking this fall.
00:22:32It made me realize how liberating freedom feels.
00:22:34Where exactly are you planning to go?
00:22:36To a place where there's no more you and Elena.
00:22:38Isn't that what you've always wanted most?
00:22:40From now on, no one will stand in the way of your white mood line anymore.
00:22:44I...
00:22:44Ava, listen to me.
00:22:46The boarding announcement is on.
00:22:48Goodbye, Logan.
00:23:08Darling, I'm so happy today.
00:23:09We should celebrate being together.
00:23:10And why not invite Ava, too?
00:23:12Oh, she's worked so hard all these years.
00:23:13She see our happiness with her own eyes.
00:23:27Five years of waiting have finally borne fruit tonight.
00:23:29In this world, nothing is more precious than a love that's been lost and found again.
00:23:33I love you, Logan.
00:23:35Congratulations.
00:23:36True lovers are destined to be together.
00:23:38The one Logan truly loves has always been only you.
00:23:41Congratulations.
00:23:43You are the only queen for Logan.
00:23:48Five years of waiting have finally borne fruit tonight.
00:23:50In this world, nothing is more precious than a love that's been lost and found again.
00:23:54I love you, Logan.
00:23:56Congratulations.
00:23:57True lovers are destined to be together.
00:23:59The one Logan truly loves has always been only you.
00:24:03Congratulations.
00:24:04You are the only queen for Logan.
00:24:06The lovers can finally embrace each other in the sunlight.
00:24:08Congratulations, Logan.
00:24:09You finally waited for the white moonlight of your dreams.
00:24:12And I, too, have finally waited for my freedom.
00:24:19Welcome to Los Angeles.
00:24:21I'm also very happy to arrive in this new world.
00:24:29Welcome aboard.
00:24:30It's time to start your era.
00:24:33You are Liam?
00:24:36Miss Ava, let me formally introduce you.
00:24:39This is the founder and chairman of our Liberty Financial.
00:24:41I've been waiting right here for you to lead Liberty Financial to conquer Wall Street
00:24:46and create glory that belongs to us.
00:24:50All right.
00:24:51I'll give it my all.
00:24:58Ava.
00:24:59Elena has officially accepted my proposal.
00:25:01We're having a celebration party at the penthouse tonight.
00:25:03You should come.
00:25:04Elena said she wants you to witness our happiest moment with your own eyes.
00:25:09I won't be going.
00:25:10That kind of moment belongs only to the two of you.
00:25:12There's no need to share it with an outsider.
00:25:13Congratulations.
00:25:14Ava, are you still sulking with me over the scapegoat incident?
00:25:17When did you become so petty, so unreasonable?
00:25:18You should understand my dispella.
00:25:20It was for the greater good.
00:25:21You're overthinking it.
00:25:22I'm really not angry.
00:25:24All right.
00:25:24I'm very busy.
00:25:25That's all.
00:25:26Fuck.
00:25:27Fuck.
00:25:27Fuck.
00:25:27Fuck.
00:25:33Logan, I've already repaid your kindness with five years of my freedom.
00:25:36From now on, our worlds will no longer intersect.
00:25:39My life is only truly beginning now.
00:25:46Ava!
00:25:47You damn woman, not only did you reject me, but you actually dared to hang up on me.
00:25:51She's getting more in there, Goldinus.
00:25:53Sorry, the number of you died is powered out.
00:25:55Darling, Ava must still be angry with me.
00:25:57It's all my fault.
00:25:59How about on our wedding day?
00:26:00I go and invite her personally.
00:26:03I believe she'll eventually bless us with tears in her eyes.
00:26:11Exactly.
00:26:12What right does she have to refuse me?
00:26:14Everything she has now was given by me.
00:26:17She's nothing but a dog I raised.
00:26:19It won't be long before she gets knocked around and bruised out there, and then obediently
00:26:24crawls back, begging me to take her in.
00:26:27But why did her tone sound so unfamiliar just now?
00:26:30This feeling of losing my grip, could it really be just an illusion?
00:26:32Why do I have this feeling that she's going to disappear from my side?
00:26:48Ava, welcome to Liberty Financial.
00:26:51From today on, this is your stage.
00:26:55Chairman, we have a major problem.
00:26:56Our merger negotiations with Everett Group have completely reached a deadlock.
00:26:59The other party's chief negotiator suddenly turned hostile, demanding an additional 20%
00:27:02of equity shares on op of the original terms, or they'll terminate the cooperation immediately.
00:27:05What?
00:27:05We've been preparing for this project for five whole years, investing hundreds of millions
00:27:09of dollars in upfront capital.
00:27:10If it collapses now, the group's cash flow will dry up instantly.
00:27:13We won't be able to hold on.
00:27:14Are the people they sent that guy nicked him the vulture miller?
00:27:17And they notoriously greedy Harrison?
00:27:18Yes.
00:27:19It's them.
00:27:20These two are notoriously difficult to deal with on Wall Street.
00:27:23They don't play by any professional rules.
00:27:26What a coincidence.
00:27:28Back at the Vanderbilt Group, I almost drive those two into bankruptcy.
00:27:31They're my old rivals.
00:27:34Leave this project to me.
00:27:38Chairman, who is she?
00:27:40Isn't it too risky to hand over such a big project to a new face?
00:27:42Let me formally introduce to everyone.
00:27:44This is the company's newly assigned executive vice president and chief operating officer, Ava.
00:27:49Hello, everyone.
00:27:50I'm Ava.
00:27:51Transfer all the core materials in our tumbles to President Ava.
00:27:53She has the highest decisioning authority for the coming negotiations.
00:27:56Understood.
00:27:59Ava, I've waited five years just to be able to stand at the pinnacle of Wall Street with
00:28:03you side by side.
00:28:04I firmly believe you will never let me down.
00:28:06Ava, she is a top class hunter on Wall Street.
00:28:09I believe she won't miss.
00:28:11Charent, is she really capable?
00:28:13The other kind is notoriously stingy on Wall Street.
00:28:15This president, Ava, is a war goddess.
00:28:17The chairman personally snatched from the hands of New York's top financial magnets.
00:28:21On Wall Street, no one wants to face her at the negotiation table.
00:28:24Open your eyes wide and see clearly.
00:28:25This is the true king of top-tier brothers' negotiation.
00:28:34Miller Harrison, long time no see?
00:28:37Ava, what are you doing here?
00:28:39I'm now in charge of the acquisition for this Liberty Financial project.
00:28:42I never imagined our opponent would be you.
00:28:45So what's all we're left to discuss?
00:28:46We've experienced your methods firsthand.
00:28:49All those underhanded negotiation tactics are just a waste of time in front of you.
00:28:53Then sign.
00:28:54No problem.
00:28:55You are the guarantee of industry credibility.
00:28:57We can drive a hard bargain with rookies.
00:28:59But with you, we value long-term cooperation more.
00:29:02Smart.
00:29:02Liberty Financial will provide you with top-tier investment banking support in return.
00:29:06Am I seeing things?
00:29:07That tough nut we've been trying to crack for five years and she got it signed in less than five
00:29:10minutes?
00:29:11This isn't a negotiation.
00:29:11It's a one-hided domination.
00:29:13Incredible.
00:29:13Is this Ava's true power?
00:29:15Simply amazing.
00:29:16Our company's about to take off.
00:29:17Senior, you're still the queen everyone looks up to.
00:29:19With you, Liberty Financial is about to experience a dreamlike leap forward.
00:29:26Pleasure doing business.
00:29:30Pleasure doing business.
00:29:31Ava, Logan is truly insane to let go of a partner of your caliber.
00:29:35You flatter me, Miller.
00:29:37If we had known earlier that you were leaving that troublesome company, we would have offered double the equity to
00:29:41poach you.
00:29:42Since you both trust me so much, we'll be allies in Los Angeles from now on.
00:29:46It's a deal.
00:29:47See you again.
00:29:50Miss Ava, how on earth did you do it?
00:29:52They're known as the devil's representatives who never concede.
00:29:56The essence of business is the equivalent exchange of resources.
00:30:00As long as you see through the other party's weakness and offer a bargaining chip they can't refuse, success is
00:30:06a matter of course.
00:30:10As expected of my senior, with you on board, Liberty Financial is destined to shine on Wall Street.
00:30:16I'm honored to join the Liberty Financial team.
00:30:21The terms of this offshore funds betting agreement are overwhelmingly in our favor.
00:30:25Is it really reliable?
00:30:27Of course.
00:30:28This is a project personally recommended by my classmate from Cambridge.
00:30:31There's absolutely no problem.
00:30:32Elena, with you by my side, I'm like a light wings.
00:30:35Once we sign this project, the market value of Vanderbilt Group can double this quarter, and those old board members
00:30:40will have nothing to say.
00:30:41Am I better than that Ava who all knows how to bare your head and work her?
00:30:44Her?
00:30:45She's not worth one ten-thousandth of you.
00:30:47As long as I help Logan secure these few more big deals and completely win his father's approval, I'll be
00:30:52the true mistress of the Vanderbilt family.
00:30:55So, how does it feel to be back at our alma mater?
00:30:57Much more relaxing than the office buildings in Manhattan, right?
00:31:00I never thought we'd reunite under these circumstances.
00:31:02But Liam, our meeting again, it probably wasn't a coincidence, was it?
00:31:09Actually, I've been silently watching you all these years.
00:31:12It's just that you were too close to Logan and never had a chance to step in.
00:31:16To be honest, I fell for you at first sight.
00:31:19I watched you compete in speech contests and dominate in debates.
00:31:22After graduation, I wanted to invite you to start a business together, but then I heard you joined Logan's family
00:31:26business to pay off your debt.
00:31:27From the day I entered Vanderbilt, I never planned to stay for a lifetime.
00:31:30I was just repaying a debt.
00:31:31Once it's paid off, it's time to leave.
00:31:33But I heard you were in a core position, holding all the lifelines of the company.
00:31:36How could that lunatic Logan bear to let you go?
00:31:38The world keeps turning without anyone.
00:31:40I'm not as indispensable as he thinks.
00:31:42I've done what needed to be done, repaid what needed to be repaid.
00:31:44We're even.
00:31:45I can disappear from his world with a clear conscience.
00:31:47Now that you've come to my side, I will never let go again.
00:31:52Chairman, something terrible has happened.
00:31:53Vice President Elena publicly fired our top salesperson, Carter, just because he was ten minutes late to the morning meeting.
00:31:58Carter was immediately poached by our arch-rival, Apex Capital.
00:32:01He took three of our core major clients with him.
00:32:05The company's losses are at least $200 million.
00:32:08Who gave her permission to touch Carter?
00:32:10He's the pillar of our company's performance.
00:32:16Chairman, it gets worse.
00:32:17We just wired the $50 million advance for that overseas project Elena signed off of, and the recipient's account was
00:32:21instantly deactivated.
00:32:22We checked the FBI's blacklist.
00:32:24It's just a shell company for money laundering.
00:32:26We've been set up.
00:32:27What?
00:32:31Chairman, I personally half a month a month in Silicon Valley touched as a social genius, Carter.
00:32:36With Ham on board, no one can touch Vanderbilt's in with North Mayer's share.
00:32:40This man's background is indeed clean and formidable.
00:32:43And these offshore projects, I've been tracking them for two years.
00:32:46I've personally done all the risk assessments.
00:32:48As long as I'm here, none of your decisions will go wrong.
00:32:52Chairman, Elena just signed two $10 billion hedge agreements with European investment banks in your name.
00:32:56But according to our emergency due diligence, both companies are backed by nothing but shells.
00:33:00The risk is off the circus.
00:33:01Chairman, you have to make a decision, or the company will be hollowed out.
00:33:14In such a short time, I've used my university connections to secure so many major projects for Logan.
00:33:20He must be looking at me in a new light now, finally realizing who his true partner in battle is.
00:33:29Investigate.
00:33:30The overseas parent companies of these two projects have no operational qualifications at all.
00:33:36They're all shell companies for money laundering.
00:33:38Chairman, the finance department just followed Ms. Elena's urgent instructions and has already transferred all the down payments.
00:33:45All transferred?
00:33:47$500 million?
00:33:48How on earth did Elena vet their qualifications?
00:33:51Is her brain filled with mush?
00:33:52With this level of incompetence, she's not even worth one ten-thousandth of AVA.
00:34:01All of you, get out!
00:34:07If Ava were here, such a low-level mistake would never have happened.
00:34:12If Ava were here, such a low-level mistake would never have happened.
00:34:16But why?
00:34:17Elena is clearly my first love.
00:34:18So why do I have such absurd thoughts?
00:34:20Elena just returned to the country.
00:34:22It's inevitable there are slip-ups in business.
00:34:24As long as I bring Ava back to assist her, the company will quickly get back on track.
00:34:31Sorry, the number you have dialed is not in service.
00:34:34Not in service?
00:34:36Ava, you've gone this far?
00:34:37You even cut off the last means of contact?
00:34:51Ava, open the door.
00:34:52I know you're in there.
00:34:53Don't play hide-and-soup with me.
00:35:02Ava?
00:35:07Ava?
00:35:16Logan, this is my final gift to you.
00:35:18Everything you casually handed down to me over the years is in this box.
00:35:25I didn't take a single piece of the trash in the closet that you looked down upon.
00:35:29We're even now.
00:35:30Goodbye forever.
00:35:37What does she mean by this?
00:35:38These were my rewards to her.
00:35:41She never used a single one?
00:35:45This Rolex was originally bought for Elena, but I remembered wrong.
00:35:50She doesn't like this kind of rugged strap.
00:35:52It's yours now.
00:35:53Take it and wear.
00:36:08The tag is still on.
00:36:10She never wore any of the clothes I bought for her.
00:36:16The tag is still on.
00:36:19She never wore any of the clothes I bought for her.
00:36:21Darling, does this limited edition Chanel suit your complexion?
00:36:25Honey, I've long outgrown that old-fashioned style.
00:36:27I have other brands I prefer.
00:36:29Gotta go.
00:36:29Mwah.
00:36:36Elena doesn't like it.
00:36:38This trash is yours now.
00:36:40Throw it away or wear it yourself.
00:36:43These jewels, these clothes, she hasn't even touched them.
00:36:47Every single thing she left here is a slap in my face.
00:36:49Alice, she's telling me she never valued anything I gave her.
00:37:00Ava, what gives you the right to draw a line with me?
00:37:03Are you trying to tell me you've won with all this garbage?
00:37:09Mobilize all our contacts, both legal and underworld.
00:37:12Seal off every exit port in New York.
00:37:15Track that woman down no matter where she's hiding.
00:37:17She doesn't even have the right to die without my permission.
00:37:21How dare she disappear?
00:37:24I'll make her regret ever being born.
00:37:30Ava, what gives you the right to draw a line with me?
00:37:33Are you trying to tell me you've won with all this garbage?
00:37:40Ava, even though you've been driven out of New York, Logan's heart is still completely filled with you.
00:37:45No, you're just my replacement.
00:37:47Logan can only be my prey.
00:37:52I'm going to let the whole world know who the future master of the Vanderbilt family is.
00:37:56Ava, you'll forever be stuck in the gutter.
00:38:06Have you found her?
00:38:07Chairman, we've searched all the private clinics and apartments in Manhattan and Queens.
00:38:10There's absolutely no trace of Miss Ava.
00:38:15Dammit!
00:38:16Ava, where the hell are you hiding?
00:38:21Dammit!
00:38:22Ava, where the hell are you hiding?
00:38:23Where exactly are you planning to go?
00:38:25To a place where there's no more you and Elena.
00:38:27She paid off all her debts just to escape me completely.
00:38:30Ava, who gave you the nerve to vanish from my world?
00:38:34Buddy, you're way too low-key.
00:38:36You're about to get married and you didn't even bite us for a drink?
00:38:39Elena's the one with sense.
00:38:40The photos she posted have set all of Wall Street on fire.
00:38:42What wedding?
00:38:43What the hell are you talking about?
00:38:44Stop pretending.
00:38:45Check your social media feed.
00:38:46You guys are really going all out.
00:38:47Was that right after you got out of bed?
00:38:54Darling, why are you here so early?
00:38:57Did you miss me?
00:39:00Delete that disgusting post right now, Elena.
00:39:02I brought you back to play the part of the perfect white moonlight, not to scheme here.
00:39:07Elena, when did you become so scheming?
00:39:10Logan, I'm your fiancé.
00:39:11Is posting an intimate photo of you some kind of capital crime?
00:39:14Phone.
00:39:15Unlock it.
00:39:16If you want our relationship to end right here, you can keep holding on to it.
00:39:26From now on, you are not supposed to post anything about my private life without permission.
00:39:30Elena, trying to force marriage with such a low-level technique is too childish.
00:39:33This is the first and last time.
00:39:34If it were Ava, she would never do something so stupid.
00:39:36She always knows where the line is.
00:39:38Logan!
00:39:38I did this because I love you too much!
00:39:41I'm scared every day.
00:39:43Scared you'll get tired of me.
00:39:44Scared you'll realize I'm not as capable as Ava.
00:39:47What I fear most is that Ava will come back and take you away from me.
00:39:52Please, don't do this.
00:39:54Logan, please don't go.
00:39:56I'll be good.
00:39:57I'll become the person you want me to be.
00:39:59I'm just so afraid of losing you.
00:40:01Afraid of losing?
00:40:02I admit I made the stupidest decision, but you're the only one in my heart.
00:40:06I really care about you too much.
00:40:09I didn't, Mr. Logan.
00:40:10Don't worry.
00:40:11I'll find one soon.
00:40:12Don't lie.
00:40:13Elena is starting to suspect us.
00:40:15I won't allow you to tarnish the pure love between her and me.
00:40:18I've shared a bed with Ava for five whole years.
00:40:19I honestly thought you'd have some shred of attachment.
00:40:21But now, she managed to vanish in the thin air without a second thought.
00:40:24Turns out, the one who truly cares and never leaves.
00:40:26And the one who never really cared about me walks away with zero regrets.
00:40:30Ava.
00:40:37Due to quality issues, the foundation has collapsed.
00:40:40The other party has officially filed a lawsuit with a federal court demanding that we pay
00:40:43one billion U.S. dollars.
00:40:46What did you say?
00:40:49Darling, look at this.
00:40:50I'm going to replace all those outdated suppliers Ava left behind.
00:40:55Why change them?
00:40:57Those companies have worked with us for ten years without a single mistake.
00:41:00Because they're too expensive, the batch I found is half the price.
00:41:04Oh.
00:41:04That woman, I treated her so well.
00:41:05And she betrayed me?
00:41:07You're the reliable one.
00:41:08Do you worry.
00:41:09It's backed by a top-tier lab.
00:41:10Absolutely proof.
00:41:14This is a third-party men's yet report.
00:41:16This patch of gong is nothing but inferior recycled scrap.
00:41:18Not even meeting half of the minimum safety standards.
00:41:21Vanderbilt Group is not only macing bankruptcy.
00:41:23We'll have to bear criminal liability.
00:41:25Can you tell me what's going on?
00:41:27Didn't you say it was backed by a top-tier lab?
00:41:32I was deceived by the mid-middle man.
00:41:34I didn't know.
00:41:40Elena, you're fired.
00:41:42Get out of here with your disgusting lies right now.
00:41:44I never want to lay eyes on you again.
00:41:46Logan?
00:41:47For that bitch?
00:41:49You actually hit me?
00:41:51You're firing me over this little money?
00:41:53Get out.
00:41:54Drag this trash out of here.
00:41:58Chairman, if we can't come up with a solution before the market opens tomorrow, Vanderbilt's
00:42:02stock will be wiped out instantly.
00:42:03We're going bankrupt.
00:42:04Bankrupt?
00:42:05Vanderbilt's century-old legacy is going to be destroyed by me?
00:42:08If Ava were here, none of this would have happened.
00:42:11It's all my fault.
00:42:12How could I have been so blind to let a fool like Elena take the vice president's position?
00:42:16Chairman, I just received a tip.
00:42:18Miss Ava is now at Liberty Financial.
00:42:20What?
00:42:21How dare she go to that small-time company to become my competitor?
00:42:25Who gave her the audacity to betray me like this?
00:42:27Since you're not dead, you must come back and save my empire.
00:42:58Ava is back!
00:43:07Liam, I'm sorry.
00:43:08It's okay.
00:43:09Even if we didn't sign this deal, it doesn't matter.
00:43:12As long as you come back safely, we have countless more opportunities.
00:43:18I said I'm sorry, because starting tomorrow, everyone might have to work overtime for a whole
00:43:21month.
00:43:21The contract, I got it.
00:43:28Sorry, I was just too excited.
00:43:29Oh my God, signing with Wansang International means our company's valuation will double
00:43:32tonight.
00:43:33It's a miracle.
00:43:34Truly the undisputed queen of negotiation on Wall Street.
00:43:36Don't you shower me with praise.
00:43:38This is the result of the whole team's overnight due diligence.
00:43:41Without your data support, I couldn't have signed a single word.
00:43:45Ava, I finally found you.
00:43:47You despicable trader.
00:43:48Get over here right now.
00:43:52Ava, get over here right now.
00:43:54Chairman Logan, aren't you busy planning that multi-billion dollar wedding of the century
00:43:58for Elena?
00:43:59What brings you to a small company like mine to throw a tantrum?
00:44:02Who gave you permission to change your phone number?
00:44:04Did I ever allow you to disappear from my site?
00:44:06And did you get my permission to work for this rival company?
00:44:08Chairman Don, it seems your memory is failing you.
00:44:10I've already resigned from your company.
00:44:12Where I go, even if it's to work on Mars, has nothing to do with you.
00:44:15Not even half a quent.
00:44:16Ava, I'm giving you one last chance.
00:44:18Get back to my company with me, now.
00:44:20Several major overseas short-sheeters are frankly attacking our stock price right now.
00:44:23You're the only one who can handle this mess.
00:44:25Sorry, but I'm now an executive partner at Liberty Financial.
00:44:27I have no obligation to help you patch up that dilapidated sinking boat anymore.
00:44:31Besides, don't you have your gun, goddess Elena?
00:44:33Let her use her innocent face to get you through this crisis.
00:44:35Have you forgotten who helped you in the first place?
00:44:37If it weren't for me, you'd still be in the slums.
00:44:38It was me who put you in a top-tier vela, who brought you into the global financial circle.
00:44:42Listen, if you come with me now and help me solve this crisis,
00:44:44I can forgive your previous insolence and even reinstate you as vice president.
00:44:50Logan, I have no interest in that position anymore.
00:44:52I spent five years by your side as a substitute, handling countless shady bad debts for you,
00:44:55and even took a bullet for Elena.
00:44:57The debts I owed have long been paid off.
00:44:58We are even now.
00:44:59Paid off?
00:45:00You can never repay what you owe me in this lifetime.
00:45:02Ava, as long as I haven't grown tired of you, you will always be my accessory.
00:45:05Come with me.
00:45:06Chairman Logan, this is Liberty Finance, not your backyard garden.
00:45:09Let her go.
00:45:09Who do you think you are, daring to cause problem at Liberty Finance and lay hands on
00:45:13our partner?
00:45:13I recognize him now.
00:45:14Hear this, the Vanderbilt C2 and famous dorned on Logan.
00:45:17I heard he plants a ginsess.
00:45:19Finally, they have spiel social Elena from in a golf, causing core projects to blow up
00:45:22one after other.
00:45:23Now Vanderbilt is decaying on a load on Wall Street and on the verge of punctuation.
00:45:26I heard Miss Ava poured her heart and soul into their company for five years, and he
00:45:29actually kicked her out for a pretty face.
00:45:30Now that the company is in ruins, he remembers to come begging for our Miss Ava.
00:45:33Pure karma.
00:45:33He didn't recognize Ava's financial genius back then, and now that he's going bankrupt,
00:45:36he thinks he can come crawling back?
00:45:38Dream on!
00:45:40Shut up!
00:45:41What do you bottom-feeding insects know?
00:45:43I'm Ava's benefactor.
00:45:44I was the one who pulled her out of the mud.
00:45:46Ava, you owe me a debt you can never repay in this lifetime.
00:45:49This is between us.
00:45:50Outsiders have no right to interfere.
00:45:51Come back with me to settle this debt.
00:45:52Logan, I'm telling you for the last time, there's no way I'm going back with you.
00:45:56From the second I walked out of that villa, that absurd five years between us was already
00:46:00completely dead.
00:46:01Ava, how dare you speak to me in that tone?
00:46:03Who gave you the nerve to defy me?
00:46:12You, how dare you hit me?
00:46:17Logan, it's true that you helped A financially in the beginning, and that was a kindness.
00:46:20But that doesn't mean she sold herself to you for life.
00:46:22This slap is payback for the humiliation and games you put her through over these five years.
00:46:26As long as I'm here, you don't have the right to lay a fend on her ever again.
00:46:31This slap is to reclaim the dignity Ava lost over these five years.
00:46:36Liam, you...
00:46:37Ava, today is a day for celebration.
00:46:39There's no need to these past that eating buried in the grave infect your mead.
00:46:43As the company's greatest contributor, I wonder if I have the honor of inviting you
00:46:46to dinner tonight.
00:46:47Wow, is Chairman Liam going to confess publicly?
00:46:49I heard Liam has had a crush on Miss Ava since their Yale University days.
00:46:52That look in his eyes is impossible to hide.
00:46:54The heir of a top-tar family dynasty paired with the Queen of Finance?
00:46:57Now that's a true power couple.
00:46:59Ava, I've reserved a table at the top-reloving restaurant tonight.
00:47:02Come with me.
00:47:04Ava, since when have you had the guts to refuse my invitation?
00:47:08I'm sorry, Liam.
00:47:09I can't have dinner with you.
00:47:11Why?
00:47:12I knew it.
00:47:13This woman was my shadow for five years.
00:47:15That ingrained sense of inferiority can't be changed.
00:47:18She simply doesn't dare to defy me.
00:47:21Because I promised to treat the entire company to a celebration party this afternoon.
00:47:26What?
00:47:27You'd rather spend time with these knollers than with me?
00:47:30Don't worry, Ava.
00:47:31I've already arranged the hotel suite and champagne for the staff.
00:47:34As for you, you're the brightest star tonight, and I must personally celebrate your success.
00:47:38All right, let's go then.
00:47:40Ava, I'm standing right in front of you, and you dare to go on a date with another man right
00:47:44in front of me?
00:47:44Do you even see me as your fiancé anymore?
00:47:46Logan, let me correct you on two points.
00:47:48First, your fiancé is named Elena, and I'm just your former executive.
00:47:52Second, I've settled all our old debts.
00:47:54There's nothing between us anymore.
00:47:56Ava, take one step and see what happens.
00:48:00Hey, this outdated chairman, you can't go over there.
00:48:02Our Ava is busy on a date with her true love.
00:48:04What are you trying to do?
00:48:05Want to be a thousand-watt light bulb?
00:48:12Ava, it prumens what the Pendwen has never be wrong.
00:48:15Since you took over, we've successfully acquired three core projects in a row.
00:48:19With this glass of top-screet Ace of Spain's, I toast to the soul of our Liberty Financial.
00:48:25Liam, you're too kind.
00:48:27Without everyone's round-the-clock cooperation, I alone couldn't have pulled off an operation of this scale.
00:48:31Ava, to be honest, before you joined us, we were just burning through investors' money every day, almost hitting rock
00:48:36bottom.
00:48:37Yeah, if Ava hadn't joined and led us to this turnaround victory, this dinner tonight would probably be our farewell
00:48:41party.
00:48:41Don't talk nonsense.
00:48:42With Ava, our blueprint has just begun.
00:48:44To the future queen of Wall Street, bottoms up.
00:48:48Ava, haven't you noticed?
00:48:49You and our chairman, Liam, standing together are practically the textbook example of a top-tier Chibon couple.
00:48:54Exactly.
00:48:55Ever since Ava joined, I've never seen Chairman Liam sober.
00:48:57His eyes are always full of pink bubbles.
00:48:59Can't all this premium steak shut you up?
00:49:02We agreed tonight.
00:49:03No one leaves until we're drunk.
00:49:05And whoever leaves first pays the bill.
00:49:11Oh, Ava, I can't go on.
00:49:13I'm seeing double.
00:49:15Chairman Liam is in your capable hands now.
00:49:17Right, right.
00:49:18My mom told me to go home for a late-night snack.
00:49:19If I'm late, she'll confiscate my credit card.
00:49:21The sacred mission of a scorch-a-junt falls to you.
00:49:24Hey, you bunch of traitors.
00:49:35Take it easy.
00:49:36You really should lose some weight, big guy.
00:49:49This is a photo of me from my university days?
00:49:54Damn it.
00:49:55I forgot to hide this incriminative evidence.
00:50:04Weren't you so drunk you could barely walk?
00:50:06I was a bit dizzy just now, but seeing this photo, I suddenly sobered up.
00:50:12How do you have a photo of me from my junior year?
00:50:14Back then, you were the star of the Yale football team, and I was just a part-time working student,
00:50:17practically invisible.
00:50:19Because long before that football game, I had already been watching you.
00:50:27Too expensive.
00:50:28That's enough for two months of my living expenses.
00:50:32I knew your family had gone bankrupt, and you were burdened with huge student loans.
00:50:36You could only save every penny to buy those obscure professional books.
00:50:49Back then, you only had eyes for Logan, the one who took you out of the slums.
00:50:54I was afraid of disturbing your happiness, so I could only hide my identity and silently help you in this
00:50:59clumsy way.
00:51:00After graduating from university, I knew you went to Logan's company out of gratitude.
00:51:04I watched you choose a path you didn't like, watched you step back for his ambitions, and grow into the
00:51:08top elite step by step.
00:51:10No one knows how much you sacrificed, but I do.
00:51:13I know your heart was just broken by Logan.
00:51:15Five years of youth traded for betrayal.
00:51:20I know you can't fall in love with someone else right away, but I'm willing to wait.
00:51:25As long as you can walk out of that darkness.
00:51:27Even if you treat me as a tear for Logan, I'm willing.
00:51:31Liam, I'm sorry, I can't agree to that.
00:51:44Liam, I'm sorry, I can't agree to your proposal just now.
00:51:48I was too impatient, Ava.
00:51:50If you feel pressured, we can just be business partners.
00:51:53As long as I can be by your side, I'm willing to do anything.
00:51:56I mean, you should...
00:51:57I don't need you to be anyone too tight.
00:51:59Liam, you are you.
00:52:00The one and only bright spot in my life.
00:52:03I'm no longer that humble steeder.
00:52:05Start a day.
00:52:06We'll need to forget someone to cash a new shop.
00:52:09So, does that mean we...
00:52:12Of course.
00:52:13I've always known it was you who silently helped me.
00:52:16But at that age, when I couldn't even hold on to my dignity,
00:52:19I couldn't give you any response.
00:52:21Not until I walked into Liberty Financial.
00:52:23I met that boy whose eyes were full of me once again.
00:52:31I heard that you were at the Vanderbilt Group.
00:52:33You were known as Drink Thousand Day One.
00:52:36Ancient Abom Logan would cover that debt you got on a switch.
00:52:39You downed it out of bot shots.
00:52:41If you drink these eight glasses today,
00:52:43this deal goes to Liberty Financial.
00:52:44Yeah, let us witness the drinking capacity of this financial queen.
00:52:49Black, if my partner needs to trade her life for a contract,
00:52:52then this deal isn't worth it.
00:52:53Ava, let's go.
00:52:58Liam, I'm willing to be your girlfriend.
00:53:01From now on, I will love you, cherish you, and protect you.
00:53:03Let's work hard together to build a real home
00:53:05that belongs to us in this cold city.
00:53:07Ava, you're not just saying that to make me happy?
00:53:10I choose to be with you for no complicated reason.
00:53:12Simply because I've also been hopelessly in love with you for a long time.
00:53:16I'm so happy, Ava.
00:53:18I feel like all the sunlight in the world has brightened at this moment.
00:53:35See you tomorrow, Ava.
00:53:36Have a pleasant evening.
00:53:37See you tomorrow.
00:53:45Where are you going?
00:53:46Get in the car, I'll give you a ride.
00:53:47Logan, who exactly are you performing these childish tricks for?
00:53:51Ava, I didn't handle things properly back then.
00:53:54I shouldn't have let you take the fall for that damn charge to protect Elena's reputation,
00:53:58forcing you to resign and leave the company.
00:54:00The position of vice president at the Vanderbilt Group, I've kept it for you.
00:54:03The room that belongs to you at home, I've had it cleaned.
00:54:06Just say the word, and you can come back anytime.
00:54:09We can start over.
00:54:11Logan, I'm curious.
00:54:13Who gave you the confidence to think that I would give up my position as a global partner
00:54:16at Liberty Financial to return to your nearly bankrupt Vanderbilt Group,
00:54:19just to be a vice-vectresser you can summon and dismiss at will?
00:54:24What are you talking about?
00:54:27And what makes you think that keeping that dark, damp, uninhabitable servant's room in
00:54:32your house for me is some great favor?
00:54:36Logan, stop wasting your time on me.
00:54:38Your persistence only makes me think less of you.
00:54:43Ava, since you have no feelings for me, I've prepared a better gift for you.
00:54:48I'm sure you'll like it.
00:54:55This is the place.
00:54:56Who exactly is this mysterious investor?
00:55:02Miss Ava, I presume?
00:55:03This way, please.
00:55:04Your table is ready.
00:55:05Is there a proposal happening here today?
00:55:06Something like that.
00:55:07A gentleman is preparing the most romantic surprise for you.
00:55:10Miss Ava, please take a seat first.
00:55:16So it's Ava that Logan wants to confess to.
00:55:18I'll mix that disfigurating potentation into the red wine.
00:55:21Ava, this is what you get for stealing my man.
00:55:23Ava, you've really come to your end.
00:55:29It's you.
00:55:37So, the mysterious investor, who anonymously requested a meeting for cooperation, is you.
00:55:40To be precise, it's the one who wants to beg on his knees to cooperate.
00:55:43Ava, don't go.
00:55:43Give me five minutes.
00:55:44I said the wrong thing at the summit entrance noon.
00:55:46That wasn't what I truly meant.
00:55:49Just say yes, and you'll be the Vanderbilt Group's sole representative in North America.
00:55:53The $50 million mansion in Manhattan, all the trust funds in my name, they'll all have
00:55:57your signature on them.
00:55:57Let's go back to how we were before.
00:55:59Back to when I only had you, okay?
00:56:01Ever since you left, everything has spiraled out of control for me.
00:56:05Why do those difficult shareholders and partners only recognize you?
00:56:08Ava, where are you?
00:56:09Only now do I realize that all my external success is because of you.
00:56:13It was only after the day you left me that I realized just how important you were to me.
00:56:17Ava, pour me a cup of coffee.
00:56:19I got used to working late nights with the coffee you brought me.
00:56:22Used to you handling all my troubles.
00:56:23Without you, my world is just gray.
00:56:28Ava, I really can't live without you.
00:56:30For God's sake, come back to me.
00:56:32Logan, I've been by your side for so long.
00:56:34Have you ever respected me?
00:56:35Have you ever cared about me?
00:56:36I admit, I owe you a debt of gratitude.
00:56:38But these past five years, I've already repaid it.
00:56:41You don't need to put on this act of deep affection for the sake of your pathetic possessiveness.
00:56:44Don't be so distant with me, Ava.
00:56:46Let's start over, like before.
00:56:48Let me spoil you again, okay?
00:56:50Don't you think you look like a child right now?
00:56:51Ava, listen to me.
00:56:52I'm not angry that you left Vanderbilt five years ago, really.
00:56:54I just think those unpleasant things are in the past now.
00:56:57Since it's all in the past, Chairman Logan, there's no need to lower yourself by bringing up old debts.
00:57:01The current distance is good for both of us.
00:57:03I've already humbled myself and apologized to you.
00:57:05Isn't that enough for you?
00:57:06I don't need your apology, and I have no interest playing hard to get with you.
00:57:09You should be more worried about your white moonlight.
00:57:11Won't Elena go crazy if she finds out you came to see me so publicly today?
00:57:14Don't mention her.
00:57:15We've broken up.
00:57:19Ava, you bitch.
00:57:19If it weren't for you setting me up and making me lose my vice president position,
00:57:23if it weren't for you, I would have long secured my place as Mrs. Vanderbilt.
00:57:25Look at what I've been reduced to now.
00:57:27I will make you pay a hundredfold.
00:57:29I've broken up and gotten back together with her countless times this past year,
00:57:32and I finally realize she's not the innocent girl I fell in love with at Yale back then.
00:57:35She's like a lunatic.
00:57:36Every time I neglect her, she tries everything to hurt herself,
00:57:38even resorting to using her body.
00:57:39Such a cheap way to win me back.
00:57:41I'm really tired.
00:57:42Logan, I have zero interest in the low-level love-hate drama between you two.
00:57:45If you ask me out just to vent these emotional grievance,
00:57:47then I'm afraid I must excuse myself.
00:57:48Ava, stop acting like a child.
00:57:50Since we're both single, why don't we give a proper relationship a try?
00:57:53I only used to see her as a substitute.
00:57:55But if I really make her my official girlfriend,
00:57:57a queen of finance like her, she would be overwhelmed with gratitude and acceptance.
00:58:01Give me a chance.
00:58:02Be my girlfriend.
00:58:04I'm sorry, Chairman Logan.
00:58:05I have a husband, and what he gives me is always the best.
00:58:09What?
00:58:09What did you say?
00:58:13Ava, this is impossible.
00:58:14All of New York knows you used to be madly in love with me.
00:58:16How could you possibly love someone else?
00:58:17This must be your way of getting back at me.
00:58:19The ring is fake?
00:58:20Your marriage is fake, right?
00:58:21Logan, your arrogance is as nauseating as ever.
00:58:24Put it there and get out, Ava.
00:58:26Don't think doing something will earn you my love.
00:58:28You're just a well-behaved bitch I keep, understand?
00:58:31So he always knew.
00:58:32He always knew how much the old Ava loved him,
00:58:34yet he took everything I gave for granted.
00:58:35Just because of that sponsorship back then,
00:58:37he treated me like a lowly slave, summoning and dismissed me at Lily.
00:58:43All right, I know you're still angry with me.
00:58:45Is it because I made you take the blame for Elena's mistake all those years ago?
00:58:49Or because I made you move out of the villa?
00:58:50I'm not angry with you.
00:58:52It's just that all of that is in the past now.
00:58:54Listen, you can drop the act with that so-called contract boyfriend.
00:58:56I've completely broken things off with Elena.
00:58:58My patience is limited, Ava.
00:58:59Stop making a scene.
00:59:00I can give you a proper title.
00:59:01We can officially be boyfriend and girlfriend.
00:59:03Breaking up?
00:59:04Logan?
00:59:04Logan, you want to dump me for this bitch?
00:59:07If I can't have you, no one will.
00:59:09Logan, take back your cheap charity.
00:59:12I've already told you, I have a husband, and he's 10,000 times better than you.
00:59:16There will never be a place for you in my world again.
00:59:19Tomorrow, I'm leaving New York for Los Angeles.
00:59:22We won't be seeing each other again.
00:59:24Leaving?
00:59:25You can't possibly refuse me.
00:59:27I know it.
00:59:28You must have found another so-called boyfriend to trick me again, just like before.
00:59:42It's you?
00:59:43Ava!
00:59:44You're still trying to seduce my husband?
00:59:46You vicious woman, won't you be satisfied until you've driven me to my death?
00:59:50Me seducing your husband?
00:59:52What a joke.
00:59:53Everyone, come and look at this bitch.
00:59:54She used to cling to me and my husband like a stubborn piece of gum that wouldn't come off.
00:59:58Later, to climb the ladder, she shamelessly became Logan's secret mistress for five years.
01:00:02Stubbornly staying in the villa and refusing to leave no matter what.
01:00:04Now Logan and I are about to get married, and she actually comes back to harass us like
01:00:08a persistent, low-class woman.
01:00:09Do you have any shame left?
01:00:11She looks so well-dressed.
01:00:13Actually, a professional homewrecker.
01:00:15You really see all kinds of people these days.
01:00:17Women who get ahead through improper means have hearts as black as can be.
01:00:20You all be the judge.
01:00:22It's this woman who stole my vice president position and took everything from me.
01:00:27Now that I'm down and out, she comes back flaunting her designer clothes?
01:00:30Ava, why don't you just die, you evil woman?
01:00:33Let him go.
01:00:44You, you bitch, how dare you hit me?
01:00:46Since you love smearing me with dirt so much, this slap is what you deserve.
01:00:50Say one more word, and I'll make you suffer a terrible death.
01:00:56Elena, I don't care what kind of dirty entanglement you still have with Logan.
01:01:00That's your business.
01:01:01Stay away from me from now on.
01:01:04Ava, since you've Aldi rolled out of New York and out of my sight, why do you have to
01:01:07come like a haunting ghost?
01:01:08Elena, don't assume everyone is like you, only capable of clinging to a man.
01:01:12Stop pretending!
01:01:13You came back because you still love Logan and can't let go of his power and influence,
01:01:16right?
01:01:16So now you want to come let and humbly be his secret mistress again, just like before,
01:01:20don't you?
01:01:20I won't accept a single word of your slander.
01:01:22I'm here for work.
01:01:23I have my own family and life.
01:01:25As for you, Elena, that pure, selfless, and above-worldly desires white moonlight persona
01:01:29you've meticulously built it for five years has completely crumbled to dust in front of
01:01:32Logan.
01:01:33Since you messed it up yourself, you should figure out a way to beg for his forgiveness yourself.
01:01:39Why come to take it out on an innocent moon?
01:01:41I have no obligation to help a woman like you keep a man who's changed his heart.
01:01:47You bitch!
01:01:48Shut up!
01:01:56Logan, why are you so cold to me?
01:01:58You won't even answer my calls?
01:01:59Is it all because of this woman?
01:02:01It's Ava who ruined the future we were supposed to have, isn't it?
01:02:03Elena, wake up.
01:02:05Ava never clung to me.
01:02:06She even finds the thought of seeing me repulsive.
01:02:08Everyone listen up.
01:02:09Elena and I are completely over.
01:02:11So they broke up a long time ago?
01:02:13Then what's this woman doing here, pretending to be the rightful white?
01:02:15No.
01:02:16Impossible.
01:02:17Why?
01:02:18Logan, you loved me so much back at Yale.
01:02:20You were even willing to defy your entire family for me.
01:02:22Why don't you love me anymore?
01:02:23Back then, funding you, even putting you in a high position, perhaps is all because I'm
01:02:29too arrogant.
01:02:30Perhaps what I loved before was just an illusion.
01:02:32A shadow I thought was real.
01:02:35After leaving Ava during countless sleepless nights, I realized that if I truly love is actually
01:02:43Logan, you can't leave.
01:02:44You can't just kick me out like this.
01:02:45Get out of my sight immediately.
01:02:46Otherwise, I won't mind making you disappear from all of New York.
01:02:48Security, drag this crazy woman out.
01:02:50No, Logan.
01:02:51Ava, you bitch.
01:02:51I won't let you get away with this.
01:02:53I'm the only one fit to be Mrs. Benderbell.
01:02:56Ava, I'm sorry.
01:02:57Logan, we're even now.
01:02:58There's no one who owes anyone an apology.
01:03:00No, Ava.
01:03:01I want to tell you, I love you.
01:03:03It wasn't until you disappeared from my sight that I realized you're the one I love
01:03:06most in this life.
01:03:08Really?
01:03:09Back then, you liked Elena.
01:03:10You always took my efforts for granted, treated me like your slave.
01:03:13It's only now, after you've been together and grown tired of her despicable tricks,
01:03:16that you remember my good points.
01:03:17That's not true.
01:03:18Ava, it wasn't until I officially dated her that I realized how good you are.
01:03:22I started thinking about you like crazy, remembering every late night you stayed up
01:03:25with me, remembering that only you understood my ambitions.
01:03:27I couldn't see my own heart clearly before.
01:03:29It wasn't until I lost you that I understood the one I truly love is you.
01:03:32Ava, let's start over.
01:03:33Give us a real try, okay?
01:03:35Logan, I'm telling you for the last time, I'm already married.
01:03:40Married?
01:03:41Ava, you must be lying to me.
01:03:43Just like when you found a fake boyfriend in college to make me jealous, right?
01:03:46You must still have feelings for me.
01:03:47Otherwise, why would you go through all this trouble to make up such an absurd lie to deceive me?
01:03:52Logan, if you lay another hand on my wife, don't blame me for being polite.
01:03:55Let me introduce you.
01:03:56This is my husband, Liam, the global chairman of Liberty Financial.
01:04:00Husband, Liam, this can't be.
01:04:04How could this happen?
01:04:05Honey, this is Mr. Logan, the benefactor I mentioned before who supported me at Yale University
01:04:09and also my former friend.
01:04:10Mr. Logan, I've heard so much about you.
01:04:12My wife mentions you often.
01:04:16Enough!
01:04:17Ava, you're quite the actress.
01:04:19To make me give up completely, you even hired a stand-in, didn't you?
01:04:22Stop lying to me!
01:04:23You can only marry me!
01:04:24How could you marry someone else?
01:04:26Logan, I really want to thank you for your past support of Ava.
01:04:28Without your generosity back then, I wouldn't have had the chance to meet such a perfect wife.
01:04:32If the Vanderbilt group ever needs anything from me in the future,
01:04:35I'll be your service, as a way for my wife to repay your kindness.
01:04:38Logan, although I'm grateful for your support, it's really getting late.
01:04:41We have to catch our private jet back to Harbor City tomorrow, so we won't keep you any longer.
01:04:45Honey, let's go.
01:04:47Ava, Ava, are you really leaving tomorrow?
01:04:50Are you really going to leave my world completely?
01:04:52Yes.
01:04:53Goodbye, Mr. Logan.
01:05:21Honey, it's so early.
01:05:24Where are you going?
01:05:25Did I wake you?
01:05:27Be good, I'm going to get you breakfast.
01:05:32So diligent?
01:05:33Didn't you keep saying yesterday how much you liked the burgers here?
01:05:36Today's our last day here.
01:05:38I can't let you go back to Los Angeles with regrets, right?
01:05:41Thank you, honey.
01:05:43Come back soon.
01:05:47Honey, I'll personally take care of ending your troubles for you.
01:05:57So, what do you want to see me about?
01:06:02$30 million.
01:06:05Take this money and leave Ava for good.
01:06:07A woman at the pinnacle of finance like her is not someone an ordinary man like you who relies on
01:06:11his looks, can aspire to.
01:06:13This money is enough for you to squagger for the rest of your life.
01:06:15Name your price and stay away from her.
01:06:20You're telling me to leave, Ava.
01:06:24What, not enough?
01:06:26Liam, don't play the top-tier tycoon in front of me.
01:06:28I've looked into you.
01:06:29Back at Yale University, you were just a poor student barely scraping by on scholarships and part-time works.
01:06:35That ingrained poverty-straking air about you, you can't wash it off no matter how many suits you change into.
01:06:43For someone like you, who's already bankrupt and can't even afford the liquidation bills,
01:06:47these $30 million are indeed enough for you to live like a nouveau riche in the slums for the rest
01:06:52of your life.
01:06:54You still only know how to measure everything with this filthy money.
01:06:57Ava choosing you is truly blind.
01:07:03Talking to me about money?
01:07:05Logan, back then you treated Ava as a substitute for Elena,
01:07:08summoning her at will and dismissing her just as easily.
01:07:10With those pitiful so-called funding resources and a few charity black cards,
01:07:14you actually thought you could buy out her entire five years of use and dignity.
01:07:18The moment you pushed her out to take the fall for that woman and left her to fend for herself
01:07:23in the rain,
01:07:23you completely lost the right to stand here and talk about her in that tone with me.
01:07:35What are you doing?
01:07:36Who gave you permission to touch my things?
01:07:38This is the Vanderbilt Group!
01:07:40Mr. Logan, we're finished.
01:07:41Because of those shell company guarantee slips Elena signed,
01:07:43plus the FBI case against her for selling sub-andard construction equipment privately,
01:07:46the court declared us officially bankrupt an hour ago.
01:07:48Bankrupt's impossible.
01:07:49When Ava was here, we were still the financial leader of Manhattan.
01:07:50How long has it been?
01:07:51How could we possibly go bankrupt?
01:07:53Get out!
01:07:53Don't touch my assets!
01:07:54This is my empire!
01:07:55Mr. Logan, please keep your distance.
01:07:56The liquidation process has already begun.
01:07:58If you continue to interfere with official duties, we will be forced to take action.
01:08:05I'm such a fool.
01:08:07Ava was clearly the one holding up the empire,
01:08:08and I kicked her out of the company to protect that useless waste, Elena.
01:08:19Elena just joined Vanderbilt Group.
01:08:21She is my chosen future wife, and her record absolutely cannot have any blemish.
01:08:30Fine.
01:08:31This one last time.
01:08:33I'll take the bullet for you one last time.
01:08:35If Ava were still here, the company wouldn't have collapsed.
01:08:38I'd still be that arrogant CEO.
01:08:40Now it's all gone.
01:08:42Logan, I have no interest in that position anymore.
01:08:44I spent five years by your side as a substitute, handling countless shady bad debts for you,
01:08:48and even took a bullet for Elena.
01:08:49The debts I owed have long been paid off.
01:08:51We are even now.
01:08:51I always felt that she owed me something, and that all the sacrifices she made were deserved.
01:08:54I was wrong.
01:08:55Ridiculously wrong.
01:08:59Chairman, I personally spent half a month in Silicon Valley to coach this sales genius,
01:09:04Carter.
01:09:04With him on board, no one can touch Vanderbilt's market share in North America.
01:09:09This man's background is indeed clean and formidable.
01:09:13And these offshore projects, I've been tracking them for two years.
01:09:16I've pinzily done all the risk assessments.
01:09:18As long as I'm here, none of your decisions will go wrong.
01:09:21If Ava were still by my side, I'd still be that top heir surrounded by admirers.
01:09:26She would have handled all the trouble.
01:09:30It wasn't until today that I realized the person who loved me most in this world was
01:09:33actually destroyed by my own hands.
01:09:39What is Elena?
01:09:40She's not even one ten thousandth of Ava.
01:09:42I've lost the most precious treasure in the world.
01:09:44No, I can't give up like this.
01:09:45I believe Ava still loves me.
01:09:47I have to find her, win her back.
01:09:49Ava, don't go, Ava.
01:09:51Young man, you've got some nerve blocking my car, but you are quite a looker.
01:09:54I just got rid of my last boy toy, you know.
01:09:56If you behave, I might just take you under my wing.
01:09:59Get away from me!
01:10:00Don't you dare touch me with your filthy hands!
01:10:02Get lost!
01:10:03A down-and-out loser putting on airs?
01:10:05You don't know what's good for you.
01:10:12What's wrong?
01:10:14Nothing.
01:10:15I just remembered a really good restaurant.
01:10:17Let me take you there.
01:10:18Sure.
01:10:23You order first.
01:10:24I'm going to the restroom.
01:10:25Okay.
01:10:34Hello.
01:10:39This is the chairman of Vanderbilt.
01:10:41Who is this?
01:10:41This is Liam, chairman of Liberty Financial.
01:10:44Mr. Liam.
01:10:45What can I do for you with this sudden call?
01:10:47I think you should discipline your son Logan properly.
01:10:49Ava is my wife now, my beloved.
01:10:51And your son has been acting like a madman these past few days, severely disrupting our family life, even daring
01:10:57to challenge my bottom line.
01:10:59I understand what you mean.
01:11:01I'll handle it.
01:11:10Hey, dad.
01:11:11You bastard.
01:11:12Do you have any idea who you're messing with?
01:11:14Ava is now the wife of Liam, the founder of the global financial giant Liberty Financial.
01:11:18A chairman worth hundreds of billions.
01:11:20What?
01:11:20Listen, if you want to keep your life, get your ass home right now.
01:11:24Otherwise, I'll announce today that I'm stripping you of all your inheritance rights, and you're out of the Vanderbilt family
01:11:29for good.
01:11:31What?
01:11:32Liam?
01:11:32Is that mysterious mastermind behind Liberty?
01:11:35Impossible.
01:11:35Absolutely impossible.
01:11:37That man who just seemed to buy breakfast and take care of kids for Ava is actually the titan who
01:11:40holds the global financial lifeline worth hundreds of billions?
01:11:43I actually, I actually dared to think I could, with a mere 30 million dollars, what the hell have I
01:11:47done?
01:12:00Elena, if that loser Logan knew you were keeping a man in his marital bed, wouldn't he go crazy on
01:12:04the spot?
01:12:06He's busy dealing with the FBI's bankruptcy investigation right now.
01:12:09How could he have the time to care about me?
01:12:11You're really ruthless.
01:12:12You emptied his overseas accounts, brought down his Vanderbilt group, and yet you secured a $50 million escape route for
01:12:17yourself.
01:12:17I do love this foolish man, but I only love his money.
01:12:19Now that he has no more use value, of course I need to find someone younger and more obedient.
01:12:23Elena!
01:12:23What are you doing?
01:12:26Have you no shame?
01:12:28Messing around in my villa, on my bed?
01:12:30You heartless woman!
01:12:32I was truly blind back then, to have abandoned Ava for someone like you.
01:12:38Logan, have you lost your mind?
01:12:40I just brought a friend back to have some fun.
01:12:42Is it worth getting so worked up over?
01:12:43You're my fiancé.
01:12:44You're using my money to support other men, and you expect me not to be angry?
01:12:47Stop pretending to be so devoted.
01:12:49Back at Yale, I changed men every day, all funded by the money you gave me.
01:12:52Did you really think I loved you?
01:12:53I loved the Vanderbilt family behind you, the one that could buy me her mess and get me to the
01:12:56Grammy Awards.
01:12:57Logan, this guy's a broke, debt-rended bankrupt up now.
01:12:59There's no need for us to waste words on him.
01:13:00You swindled all my money and ruined the company.
01:13:02I'm going to send you to prison.
01:13:04Black has already helped me transfer the money out.
01:13:06He's my true love now.
01:13:07You're history.
01:13:11I used to fawn over you like a dog because you were supporting me.
01:13:15Now you're not even as good as a stray dog.
01:13:17What do you think you are?
01:13:20I paid for your college.
01:13:22I paid for you to come back and be vice president.
01:13:24For you, Ava left.
01:13:25My company is gone.
01:13:26How could you do this to me?
01:13:27That's because you were willing to be the sucker.
01:13:30Who's to blame for your stupidity?
01:13:31Now you don't have a single penny left.
01:13:33What gives you the right to tell me what to do?
01:13:35Black, let's go.
01:13:36This place reeks of sour failure.
01:13:38Let's find another hotel to continue.
01:13:39You got it.
01:13:40I'll make sure to serve my queen well today.
01:13:42Stop.
01:13:43Give back all the money you swindled from me.
01:13:45Every single cent I ever spent on you.
01:13:47Dream on.
01:13:48That's the compensation you owe me for my youth.
01:13:50Get lost.
01:13:51Ava, I was wrong.
01:13:52It turns out you were the only one in this world who truly cared for me
01:13:54and I lost the woman who loved me most in life.
01:13:56Elena.
01:13:58You ruined me.
01:13:59And I swear I won't let you get away with it.
01:14:11Ava, I just received news from Hei Chang.
01:14:13The Vanderbilt Group has been completely liquidated
01:14:15due to the failure of several fatal gambling agreements,
01:14:17plus the major engineering accident caused by the batch of construction equipment
01:14:20Elena was responsible for.
01:14:21Hmm.
01:14:22Aren't you the least bit curious?
01:14:24Without you, the anchor that held everything together,
01:14:26that empire once hailed as unsinkable, has collapsed so quickly.
01:14:29It's not surprising at all.
01:14:31From the moment I walked out of that office,
01:14:33Logan and his company have been nothing but a moldy old debt in my life.
01:14:36If it's trash, it's only a matter of time before it gets cleaned up.
01:14:39There's something even more interesting.
01:14:41Logan, driven by extreme hatred because Elena took his last life string
01:14:44and publicly humiliated him, killed Elena on the streets of Manhattan.
01:14:47He's facing the most severe charges.
01:14:51He has only himself to blame for falling to the state,
01:14:54for loving a poison he shouldn't have.
01:14:55But the people and things in that ruin have nothing to do with me anymore.
01:14:58All I want now is to build our life well.
01:15:00Right.
01:15:03But tonight, we have an important topic to discuss.
01:15:06I haven't heard about any meeting tonight.
01:15:08The topic I'm talking about is how many lively and adorable little babies we're going to have.
01:15:13The topic I'm talking about is how many people are going to have.
01:15:14The topic I'm talking about is how many people are going to have.
