00:19How dare that useless playboy rejected by all of upper-class society even think of marrying me?
00:25Sister, you're the one who matches him. As for me, the one I'm going to marry is the eldest son.
00:32He's the true heir to the wealthiest Thorn family.
00:35I've already married him in your place. If I find out you're withholding my mother's medical expenses again.
00:42Let's talk about that after you've successfully completed the wedding. Right now, we don't even know where the groom is.
00:49I thought you'd been dragged back to get married and wouldn't make it to today's race.
00:57Son, today's your wedding day. Just listen to mom this one time and come back, okay?
01:01Mom, I don't want to get married. Just find any excuse to send that person away.
01:04Son, think about it again. You're definitely going to like her.
01:07I could never like a woman I've never even met. The race is about to start, mom. I'm hanging up.
01:12Young Mr. Thorn really not going back? What if your wife turns out to be a stunningly beautiful woman?
01:17A woman who married for money? What does it matter how good her looks are?
01:20I'm more curious about what kind of woman could ever tamer you in the future.
01:25Are you here to race or gossip?
01:28Tell me the truth. This is the end. I feel I've lose my sight. Can't find my way.
01:45Hey, beautiful, wrong place? This is a mountain off-road race, not a wedding venue.
01:49Who says a bride can't come racing?
01:51Ran away from your wedding to race? I admire that. Get her a spot in the race.
01:55Damon, adding someone at the last minute isn't really the rule. I make the rules. Yes.
02:00He's my future husband, Damon Thorn. Seems pretty decent. Not as awful as Mia Holt made him out to be.
02:07No need for all that trouble.
02:08I heard if I can beat you on the track, I can ask you for one thing?
02:12Of course. If you can win, you can ask me to do anything.
02:17For my mother's medical expenses, I have to take him back and finish the wedding today.
02:22Good. I want to challenge you.
02:25Beautiful. Damon is the three-time WRC champion, raking in prize money left and right. Are you sure you want
02:31to race him?
02:32What? Scared?
02:34Go pick her a good car. You got it.
02:36No need. I'll use this car.
02:39Fine. I'll play along with you.
02:55Here they come.
02:56Boring. Damon's definitely winning again.
02:59Wait! The first one on the line is that little junk car.
03:07Oh! Damon actually lost to a woman?
03:15A bet's a bet. Tell me. What do you want me to do?
03:21Come back with me. Get married.
03:25Are you the one the Hale family sent for the arranged marriage?
03:28Yes.
03:30Another woman deliberately getting close for money.
03:32I'm not going back.
03:34You personally agreed to the bet, Mr. Thorne.
03:37You wouldn't go back on your word in front of so many people, would you?
03:40Where would your reputation be then?
03:43Threatening me?
03:45Let's go, husband.
03:49I heard this Hale family array is famously soft-spoken.
03:52What if he doesn't bring her back, and our son bullies her instead?
03:56Dad, Mom, we're back.
03:58Good, good.
04:00Let's get one thing straight.
04:02I only agreed to come back with you, not to get married.
04:05Looking at my parents won't help.
04:07Unless I agree, you can forget about marrying into the Thorne family.
04:10Well, son...
04:11Mom, arrange a car to take Miss Hale home.
04:14This isn't appropriate, is it?
04:16What's inappropriate?
04:19I already registered your American marriage license.
04:21She's already your wife now.
04:29I'm off to get my beauty sleep.
04:31You two work on your relationship.
04:33Son, that matter was three years ago.
04:34You can't stay single forever, can you?
04:36Your mom and I only want what's best for you knew about this too.
04:39Uh, Dad just remembered some work he hasn't finished.
04:46Damon, are you coming to the party today?
04:49There are plenty of beauties.
04:51Damon?
04:52Damon, are you still there?
04:53I heard you got married.
04:55Is your wife there?
04:56Not letting you out?
04:57Cut the crap.
04:57It's just a marriage of convenience.
04:59Don't think a piece of paper can tie me down.
05:01No way.
05:02You're the man, Damon.
05:03I've invited several beauties according to your taste.
05:06Don't be late.
05:06No.
05:08Alright, send me the address.
05:09How long have you been there?
05:10Since you mentioned marriage of convenience.
05:12Damon Thorne, since we're married, let's try to make this-
05:14Stop.
05:16Let me be straight with you.
05:17Apart from material things and the title of Mrs. Thorne, you'll get nothing from me.
05:21If you can't accept that and want a divorce, you're welcome to at any time.
05:26I can pay mom's medical expenses now.
05:29No matter what, I should thank him.
05:31I'll drop an IU due and settle this score with him once I'm back on my feet.
05:45Just as I thought, it's all about the money.
05:56Elena Hale, you're just like your useless mother.
05:59Can't even keep your man in check.
06:00Oh, right.
06:01How could someone like you ever handle a playboy like him?
06:04What nonsense are you talking?
06:05My dear sister, I really should thank you for marrying him in my place.
06:10Tomorrow's headlines will be all about the Thorne family's second young master partying at a club the day after his
06:15wedding.
06:16Sister, you'll be the laughing stock of the whole city.
06:25Mom, your whole life was ruined by that marriage.
06:28I will never follow in your footsteps.
06:31Damon, your investments in the financial district this time have earned you several small fortunes.
06:36When you're free, take us along with you too.
06:38Just playing around.
06:39My treat tonight.
06:40Damon's the man!
06:41Damon, you're new weds.
06:43Your life really okay with you coming out to do to play?
06:46Our Damon here is a master of the flower garden.
06:48Never leaf sticks to him.
06:50How could he be swayed by a single woman?
06:52You can't say that.
06:53How can women from outside compare to a wife?
06:56So, Damon, your wife won't get mad if we drink with you, right?
07:03We drink our own.
07:04Why should we care about her?
07:06Is that so?
07:12The upstairs area is reserved for VIP guests.
07:15No entry.
07:22Is that so?
07:25Why am I nervous?
07:27She's the one with an agenda.
07:30What do you want?
07:32I'm here to take my husband home.
07:36You're trying to tie me down?
07:37You'll need to show some skill for that.
07:40Fine.
07:41Actually, I'd like to get to know your usual hobbies better.
07:44You don't mind if I stay, do you?
07:47Suit yourself.
07:52So you're a cocktail waitress.
07:54What, you've got your eye on our brother Damon?
07:56Yes.
07:57But I heard he has a wife.
07:59What's there to be afraid of?
08:01As long as brother Damon fancies you,
08:03he could take you home right in front of his wife.
08:05And she'd still have to wait on you hand and foot.
08:09Is that so?
08:11When did I ever say that?
08:12Hey, same idea.
08:15But our brother Damon isn't that kind of guy anyway.
08:18He'd definitely get divorced first.
08:20Then be with you.
08:23Divorce?
08:29What are you daydreaming about?
08:30Damon's had countless ex-girlfriends.
08:33Socialites, heiresses, celebrities and models.
08:35He's had them all.
08:36Even if he gets divorced, it still won't be your turn.
08:39So many?
08:43Hey beautiful.
08:45Stop thinking about brother Damon.
08:46How about considering me instead?
08:49You go back first.
08:54Since we're already here,
08:56leaving so early would be such a buzz kill.
08:58She's absolutely right.
09:00We're already here, so why don't you dance for us?
09:03After that, I'll tell you a secret about brother Damon.
09:07Alright, I'm very curious.
09:10You had no-ver fun to go.
09:11If you had a no-go fun.
09:13Can't you see he has ulterior moodies?
09:16Are you really going dance?
09:17If you can entertain yourself here, why can't I dance?
09:21Unless you come back with me, then I'll dance just for you.
09:28Damon, this chick is incredible.
09:30If you don't like her, can I go for her?
09:35Get lost.
09:53Stop dancing.
09:55Honey, I have another dance prepared.
09:57Do you want to watch me dance at home or right here?
10:00No one has ever dared to threaten me before.
10:04Now there is.
10:06Get me an outfit like that.
10:08Go get it now.
10:10You have one minute to decide.
10:14Thirty seconds.
10:17Dance! Dance! Dance! Dance!
10:22I'll go home with you.
10:25I'll go home with you.
10:25You guys have fun. I'll cover the bill.
10:28How boring, Damon. You're ditching your friends for a girl?
10:33Damon, your taste has really gone hill.
10:35This cocktail waitress isn't even that attractive figure-wise.
10:38Wait for me outside. I have some unfinished mist to take care of.
10:45I heard a very interesting conversation outside the restroom today.
10:49What do you think would happen if Damon heard it?
10:52What's he putting on airs for?
10:54If it weren't for his stinking money, do you think I'd really want to invite him?
10:57Just bear with it.
10:59Every wee hanger, the bill is over $100,000.
11:01Without this cash cow, can you get used to a plain boring life?
11:06Pah! So what if he's rich?
11:09You eat his food, drink on his dime, and then talk behind his back?
11:14Who gave you the nerve?
11:16If I find out you've dragged Damon out to fool around again, I can't guarantee where this recording might end
11:21up.
11:23Dad, cancel the investment in the Spencer family.
11:26Okay, but son, weren't you good friends with that Spencer kid?
11:29What did he do to offend you?
11:35He coveted something he shouldn't have.
11:40Let's go, honey.
11:46Don't dance in front of outsiders anymore.
11:49Are you jealous?
11:51Don't flatter yourself.
11:52You are my wife in name, after all.
11:55I just don't want things to get too awkward.
12:02Fine, I won't dance.
12:04As long as you don't go to these kinds of places, how would I get the chance to dance in
12:08front of outsiders?
12:10Are you threatening me?
12:12No.
12:14It's a friendly negotiation between husband and wife.
12:19Since we're husband and wife, shouldn't we do what husbands and wives are supposed to do?
12:30Honey, I'm not ready yet.
12:31Mom and dad have arranged for you to intern at the company.
12:34I think you should focus more on that.
12:39Is it really okay for our daughter-in-law to be so assertive?
12:42What's wrong with that?
12:43It's his good fortune to have a wife willing to keep him in line.
12:45Haven't you noticed he's been going out less lately and stopped hanging out with those good-for-na-the-friends?
12:49That's true.
12:49It's good for him to settle down.
12:51I'm getting old.
12:52Although Julian is our adopted son, he's still an outsider.
12:55I'll only feel at ease if we hand over the family company to Damon.
12:58I'm worried Damon hasn't let go of that incident yet.
13:01You've seen his state these past few years.
13:04Isn't it too much pressure to put him in charge of the company now?
13:06Let his wife worry about that.
13:08It's time for us to enjoy our retirement.
13:14I got married.
13:15She's a bit like you.
13:17Full of energy and Dom and Eric, but not as obedient and sensible as you were.
13:20It's been three years.
13:21I miss you so much.
13:25Henny, where are you?
13:26Don't forget we have to report to the company today.
13:31Are you unhappy?
13:33Are you really to want us here?
13:35Then we just don't go.
13:37At worst, I'll support you in the hole.
13:39I'm fine.
13:40You go to the company first.
13:41I'll be there in a bit.
13:42Don't you dare stand me up.
13:44Or else.
13:45Got it.
13:50Elena, I heard your father forced you to marry their family from the Thorn family.
13:55How are you?
13:56Mom won't get treatment anymore.
13:57Let's not marry him.
13:59Let's go home, okay?
14:00Mom, how can you just decide not to get treatment?
14:02My husband treats me very well.
14:05Don't listen to the rumors outside.
14:07It's all because of my useless body.
14:09Three years ago, if I hadn't been a burden,
14:11you would have been with the person you liked long ago.
14:13You wouldn't have had to suffer this injustice.
14:15It's Mom who's sorry for you.
14:18Mom, that's all in the past.
14:20My husband is very good.
14:22Next time I bring him to see you, you'll know.
14:25Okay, okay.
14:32Honey, you're here.
14:34Mom and Dad said we should start with an internship.
14:36From the bottom up.
14:37We?
14:38Yes.
14:39I'll be with you all the way.
14:42Then I'll have to trouble you, wifey.
14:57Elena Hale.
14:58What are you doing here?
14:59I'm here to accompany my husband to work.
15:02Work?
15:03Everyone knows Damon Thorne is just a good-for-nothing sloucher.
15:06Julian has always been the one managing the Thorne group.
15:09I think you're just here to seduce Julia,
15:12a married woman with no sense of pariety.
15:15And what are you here for?
15:17I'm here to connect with Julia, of course.
15:20I'm about to become the mistress of the Thorne group.
15:23Just wait until I trample you under my feet.
15:25It's all because your husband is useless.
15:35What's going on here?
15:43Julian, don't mind her.
15:45She's just a gold digger who will stop at nothing.
15:49Is that so?
15:52I'm Damon Thorne's wife.
15:56So it's my sister-in-law.
15:58I was away on a business trip recently and couldn't attend your wedding with Damon.
16:02My apologies.
16:03I've prepared a wedding gift for you both.
16:05It's upstairs.
16:06Let me take you to get it.
16:11Julian, what about me?
16:13Are you blind?
16:14Can't you see I'm your future CEO's wife?
16:16Sorry, Mr. Julian didn't say you could go in.
16:23Lena, Elena, may I call you that?
16:28Don't be surprised.
16:29I know you married my brother in place of Mia Hall.
16:32What a pity.
16:34What do you want?
16:42What can I want?
16:44Just getting to know a new member of the family.
16:56Damon won't come.
16:57Ever since his ex-girlfriend passed away, he's become hopeless trash.
17:01What future is there in following a useless man whose heart belongs to someone else?
17:07Why not consider me instead?
17:13Why not consider me instead?
17:17That brat always finds excuses to run away.
17:20Will he really come today?
17:22How dare he not.
17:28Fine. Very good.
17:30Julian, have some self-respect.
17:32What's better about him besides his birthright?
17:35I've worked so hard for the Thorn Group all these years.
17:38So what if I'm not blood-related?
17:39I'm this outstanding.
17:41Why should the old man hand the company over to that playboy?
17:43Julian, calm down.
17:45See? It's only been a few days since you got married and you're already taking his side.
17:48Have you lost your mind?
17:50I locked the door.
17:51You, a delicate woman, can't open it.
17:53I'm curious what Damon will feel when he sees you lying in my arms.
17:57Open the door. Don't mess with me.
17:59This room is soundproof.
18:00You can scream your lungs out and no one will come to help you.
18:03Besides, the more you scream, the more excited I get.
18:06Soundproof, huh?
18:08Then don't blame me.
18:12Julian, how dare you touch my woman!
18:15You're still excited? I told you not to mess with me! Not to mess with me!
18:20Not to mess with me!
18:26Just had a little physical exchange with Julia. Let's go.
18:32Oh, by the way, Julian, you should work out when you have time.
18:36Look how weak you are. Can't even beat a frail woman.
18:40Stay close and don't wander off. I don't want the company buzzing with gossip about my wife and my brother
18:44the moment I step in.
18:46Are you jealous?
18:49You need to be careful of your brother. He just...
18:52The chairman is here.
18:54Forget it. I'll tell him next time.
18:57Good, good. Getting married and setting down really changes a man.
19:00I hereby announce that Damon Thorn will assume the position of general manager of Thorn Group in one month.
19:08With two Mr. Thorns from now on, won't it be confusing?
19:11Haven't you figured it out yet?
19:12The younger Mr. Thorn is the true heir.
19:15There's a difference between biological and adopted.
19:17My dear brother, you'd better stay as reckless as ever this month.
19:24Forget it. I'll tell him next time.
19:26Good, good. Getting married and setting down really changes a man.
19:29I hereby announce that Damon Thorn will assume the position of general manager of Thorn Group in one month.
19:37With two Mr. Thorns from now on, won't it be confusing?
19:40Haven't you figured it out yet?
19:42The younger Mr. Thorn is the true heir.
19:44There's a difference between biological and adopted.
19:47My dear brother, you'd better stay as reckless as ever this month.
19:54Honey, I've been going over the data.
19:56Julian has been running the company very well these past few years.
19:59The financial reports look great, but I've found several funds seem to have gone missing.
20:03You've been talking about him all night. Aren't you tired of it?
20:05Not at all. I only upset him today.
20:07It never hurts to know more and stay one step ahead.
20:12What are you doing?
20:14The light is too bright. It's affecting my sleep.
20:16Fine.
20:18This shouldn't affect you now, should it, young master?
20:23Mr. Julian, we've already spoken with the shareholders.
20:25None of them will agree to Damon succeeding as president of the Thorn Group.
20:27Just take what those old timers take with a grain of at.
20:29Leak Damon's ongoing projects to our competitors.
20:31I want everyone to that only I can deliver real benefits of the company.
20:34This, I understand.
20:35Don't worry. Follow me, and I won't treat you poorly.
20:38Why hasn't there been any gossip about Damon lately?
20:41I'm paying you half a million a month, and you can't even handle this much?
20:47Honey, get up. Don't forget you have a business meeting to attend today.
20:52Not going.
20:57Get up. I'm counting to three.
21:02Sweetheart, I heard you two arguing last night.
21:05Has Damon been giving you a hard time?
21:12Mom, what brings you here?
21:15You've both been working so hard lately.
21:18I made you breakfast.
21:21Thank you, Mom.
21:25We're supposed to be heading to the office.
21:27Quit dragging your feet.
21:28Mom, we're on our way out.
21:30All right, all right.
21:35Has the sun risen from the west?
21:39Honey, I've scheduled a meeting with the Wallace Group this evening to discuss our partnership.
21:43I prepared all the relevant documents for you. You can go through them first.
21:46Just leave it there for now.
21:47Okay, remember to look at it.
21:49I'll we get you some lunch.
21:53Hey, Damon. What's going on lately? We've got to get together tonight.
22:01Honey, where on earth have you gone?
22:04Sorry. The subscriber you dialed cannot be connected for the moment.
22:09Waiting for Damon?
22:11None of your business.
22:13None of your business.
22:15You didn't report me last time, sister-in-law.
22:18Could it be you're interested in me too?
22:20I meant every word I said last time.
22:23If you're sick, you should go get treated.
22:26Interesting.
22:28Don't wait.
22:29Damon isn't coming today.
22:34I wonder if you've heard the saying, sister-in-law, a leopard can't change its fangs.
22:38Damon has already given up on himself.
22:41What are you still holding on for?
22:43Come with me.
22:45I promise whatever Damon can give you, I'll give you more.
22:49Looks like you're at your wits end, big brother.
22:52Digging up photos from years ago to fool me, and the watermark is still there.
22:56Besides, I believe in Damon.
23:06If I can't take it away, then I'll destroy it.
23:16Weren't we supposed to meet with young Mr. Thorne today to discuss the cooperation?
23:21How come such a stunning matey has arrived instead?
23:24Sorry, Damon had something come up last minute.
23:28I'm his assistant, Elena Hall.
23:31I'll be the one to introduce the details of the cooperation to everyone today.
23:36It seems the Thorne group lacks sincerity.
23:39Damon Thorne himself doesn't come.
23:41Sending a woman to negotiate with me instead.
23:44Does he look down on me?
23:45Mr. Wallace, as long as the benefits are substantial enough,
23:49does it really matter who comes to discuss the deal?
23:56I don't know.
23:57I don't know.
24:01All right then, since it's our fault at the Thorne group today,
24:05I'll punish myself with three drinks as an apology to you, Mr. Wallace.
24:10You do have some guts.
24:12Hey, look. It's not proper to discuss business standing up.
24:15Why don't we sit down, have a drink and chat?
24:22Mr. Wallace, do you think we could take a look at...
24:29No rush.
24:31No rush. It's never too late to talk after we've eaten and drunk our fill.
24:37Honey, I feel something's not right.
24:40Come pick me up immediately at room 606, St. Regis Hotel.
24:54Miss Halley, you're drunk. Let me take you home?
24:58No need.
24:59My husband is Damon Thorne. He'll come pick me up.
25:04You're Damon Thorne's wife?
25:07That bastard Thorne actually sends his wife out to socialize while he hides?
25:14Even I wouldn't stoop that low.
25:18Mr. Wallace, maybe we should let this go.
25:21If Damon Thorne finds out we touched his wife, he probably won't let it slide.
25:25That just makes it more thrilling, doesn't it?
25:43Come on. Let your husband take good care of you.
25:47Don't touch me. My husband won't let you get away with this.
25:55Hey, Miss Hall. If we're talking about the old Damon Thorne, I might have been a bit wary.
26:01But now, he's just a useless coward who hides behind a woman.
26:26Mr. Wallace, are you alright?
26:33What are you waiting for? Go after her!
26:47Found her. Over here.
26:51Damon, my uncle has agreed to cooperate.
26:54Alright, we owe you for helping us secure the deal with Wei Yun International this time.
26:59We're brothers, Damon. No need to be so formal.
27:01Next time, bring your wife along for a race, okay?
27:05Sure.
27:06One more thing, Damon. Your brother transferred another million to me, asking me to keep you entertained.
27:12This money...
27:13He's being that generous this time? If he gave it to you, just keep it.
27:41Do me a favor.
27:43Sure, Damon. What is it?
27:44Since that Wallace guy's hands aren't clean, take him down legally.
27:48Don't leave any evidence.
27:50Don't worry, Damon. We're experts at this kind of thing.
27:53Try to do more legitimate work from now on.
27:56No way, Damon. Did those words really just come out of your mouth?
28:01Have you really turned into a good boy for your wife?
28:04Cut the crap.
28:06Don't move yet. The family doctor said you have a lot of scrapes and a sprained leg. Try to stay
28:10lying down.
28:13I didn't mean to bail on you last night.
28:15My guys found out the Wallace Group's capital is totally sketchy.
28:19I rushed to get in touch with Wei Yun International.
28:21And we've already signed the contract.
28:28You mean Wei International? The one that's way way richer than the Wallers and has way bigger global influence?
28:33Yeah.
28:34Great. Now let's see how they can still call my husband useless.
28:39I'm sorry.
28:40Justin, I'm sorry?
28:45Feels good.
28:48If it weren't for the fact that you're injured...
28:53Press harder. Are you even up for it?
28:59Why don't you see if I'm up for it?
29:02I'm tired. I want to sleep.
29:05Too late.
29:06Hey, I'm a patient.
29:09Okay, I'm in your debt.
29:16Just for this?
29:18You called off the deal with the Wallers?
29:20And you even got Dad to strip me of my vice president role?
29:23Julian, after all these years I figured you'd get it by now.
29:27You only get what I don't want.
29:30So this is who you really are, huh?
29:33Does your wife even know what kind of man she married?
29:35Does she know you've got another woman on your mind?
29:38Julian, please leave.
29:45This kid's just like me. Same old vibe.
29:48Marrying her was such a good call.
29:49I ought to hook my daughter-in-law up with a couple more downtown villas.
30:01Completely hopeless. Never make it.
30:05Sweetie, I've got something to say.
30:18I-I thought you said you weren't coming.
30:34Are you serious?
30:39You can tear it up. I can just print another one.
30:42In one month, the board will vote on whether you're qualified to be the new CEO.
30:46If you get elected, we'll live a good life together.
30:50If you don't, sign it.
30:53Fine. I'll sign.
30:57If I sign, wouldn't that be exactly what you want?
31:01Well, I won't.
31:05Daughter-in-law, your method really works.
31:08Scaring him like that, the kid actually fell for it.
31:11Dad, I'm serious.
31:15Serious?
31:16Oh, no. Oh, no. This has gone too far.
31:27Hey.
31:39Go sleep in the guest room.
31:48Good girl. Look how worn out Damon is.
31:51Why don't you take the day off?
31:53Running a company means you gotta balance work and rest, too.
31:57Alright, I'll listen to you, Mom.
32:10Honey, you tired? Put that down. Have some chicken soup to recharge.
32:15Is she that desperate to get a divorce?
32:19No worries. I'm not worn out.
32:22Julian made a total mess.
32:24Don't bother. Don't bother me. Head home and get some rest first.
32:29Has work totally fried your brain?
32:32You want to divorce me? Not a chance.
32:45Elena Hale, don't think your husband's cut out for the CEO job just cause he pushed Julian out.
32:50Trash is always trash.
32:52I'll be waiting to watch the two of you beg and cry, begging Julian to come back and take over.
32:58Alright, we'll see.
33:00Forgot to mention, word got around that Thorn Group's letting a useless deadbeat take charge.
33:06Now the Hale family and a bunch of other companies have all cut ties and pulled their cooperation.
33:13Are you and Julian Hayes behind all this?
33:18Lena, the Thorn family will eventually beg Julian to come back to the company.
33:22So what if you are excellent in every way?
33:25Marrying the wrong husband means you're only fit to lick my shoes for the rest of your life.
33:28I should thank you, actually.
33:30If you hadn't threatened me into taking your place in marriage, I wouldn't have such a wonderful husband.
33:34Whether I married the wrong person or you're just blind, we'll find out in a month.
33:38You!
33:40Lena, you'll regret this!
33:45Are you okay?
33:46If you don't have the ability, don't take on such a delicate task.
33:50You'll just end up dragging Julian down to clean up your mess.
34:05Honey, what are you doing?
34:07We're husband and wife.
34:08The assets under my name should naturally be managed by you.
34:12If I go bankrupt running the company, you can still take the money and run.
34:17Don't say such things.
34:19Honey, I believe in you.
34:21We'll definitely make a good life together and make everyone who look down on you see you in a new
34:26light.
34:29Okay.
34:34Damon!
34:35Is that really you?
34:37Dressed like this, I almost didn't recognize you.
34:39I just got back from abroad.
34:40How about we call a few beauties tonight and hang out?
34:43I have a business meeting later.
34:44Can't go.
34:45Working every day is so boring.
34:47This deal must be with my old man, right?
34:50Look, you go have some fun with your bro.
34:52I'll put in a word with the old man and won't we just sign the contract.
34:56Fine.
34:57Call your father first.
35:01All right, all right, all right.
35:04Dad.
35:07Honey, anatomy.
35:09I'll be home late.
35:12Just reporting to my wife.
35:14Have you been possessed?
35:15It's only been a month and you've turned into the perfect devoted husband?
35:20Cut the crap.
35:21Are we going or not?
35:23Going, going, going.
35:24Let's go.
35:25Let me tell you, foreign girls just don't have the same kick as the local ones.
35:36Bringing lunch for Damon Thorne?
35:42What do you want?
35:44I'm really curious to see how your sincere feelings will end up being betrayed.
35:49No need for you to worry about it.
35:57Give it back.
36:02I'm really looking forward to it.
36:04I love the drama of lovers turning against each other.
36:14Mrs. Thorne.
36:15Young Mr. Thorne didn't come to work today.
36:24Daughter-in-law, why don't you go to sleep first?
36:27When Damon comes back, Mom will scold him for you.
36:31Mom, you two go to sleep first.
36:33I'm not tired.
36:35Don't worry.
36:36Damon might not say it out loud, but Mom can tell he really likes you.
36:40Even if it's just for you, he definitely won't do anything reckless.
36:44Mm-hmm.
36:53So you're the plain housewife of Mr. Thorne?
37:02Yes, it's me.
37:03Not much to look at, huh?
37:06My son is already married.
37:08His heart belongs only to his wife.
37:10You are not welcome in the Thorne family.
37:15Why?
37:16Thank you for bringing my husband home.
37:18In the middle of the night, your husband gets brought home by a curvy beauty?
37:23And you're not even a little bit angry?
37:25Young lady, you're not lacking in qualities yourself.
37:28You could clearly marry a good man.
37:31Why must you insist on destroying someone else's marriage?
37:48I did what you asked.
37:50They're too close.
37:51I can't help it.
37:53Send my final payment.
38:01Wife.
38:04I'll deal with you when you wake up.
38:13Don't be angry.
38:14I'm not angry.
38:160523, not his birthday?
38:21Zoo 217, it's my birthday.
38:24I never told him. How would he know?
38:35Give it back.
38:42Julian Hayes.
38:48Should you tell our son?
38:51You tell him.
38:54Dad, Mom, why are you here?
38:57Where is she?
39:04Son, drink some hangover soup first, then we'll talk.
39:07Mom, what exactly happened? Tell me.
39:10Don't rush.
39:11Do you remember how you got back yesterday?
39:22Mom, Dad, where's my wife?
39:29I thought you were gonna divorce me again.
39:32I was thinking about it last night.
39:36What?
39:43Nothing.
39:45Mom, Dad, haven't you told him yet?
39:47It turns out, all those scandals about you over the years
39:52were orchestrated by your elder brother.
39:54Most of the people who led you astray
39:56were deliberately arranged by him, too.
39:59It was all to ruin you
40:01so he could inherit our family's business.
40:07We're incredibly lucky to have married Lena into our family.
40:11Otherwise, we'd still be in the dark,
40:14having raised a viper for over 20 years without knowing it.
40:21It's okay, son.
40:22Your mom and I have already sent him back to where he belongs.
40:25He won't get a single cent of the Thone family's money.
40:34Ouch!
40:35Damon, why didn't you catch me?
40:37That really hurt!
40:38You know I'm your brother-in-law,
40:40yet you still threw yourself at me?
40:43It was an accident, Damon.
40:46Damon, could you help me up?
40:50Looks like you can get up on your own just fine.
40:52Damon, I heard you've taken over as CEO of the Thorn Group.
40:55Congratulations!
40:57Oh. Anything else?
41:00Damon, Elena is a promiscuous woman.
41:02She's simply not worthy of you!
41:04Who is worthy, then? You?
41:07Damon, I need to tell you a secret about Elena.
41:10Three years ago, she ran away with someone and caused a huge scandal.
41:17Damon, did you know?
41:19She had an online love interest back when she was still in school.
41:22They even planned to elope together.
41:24She might not be pure anymore,
41:26and is completely unworthy of being the Thorn family's young mistress.
41:30An online love interest?
41:32Yes, Damon.
41:33I'm different from her.
41:35I've only liked you from the very beginning.
41:37Just talk. Keep your hands to yourself.
41:40Actually, I was the one who was supposed to marry you from the start.
41:44It was Elena who schemed to replace me and marry you.
41:48We were meant to be a couple all along!
41:52Damon?
41:53We'll talk later. I have something urgent.
41:56Damon, I'll wait for you!
42:02So typical of someone used to being poor.
42:05What cheap stuff are you drinking?
42:08Hey! You! Yes! You!
42:10Go get a new coffee machine.
42:13I want freshly hand-grounded coffee.
42:15Julian is gone.
42:16Who gave you the nerve to order people around here?
42:19Elena Hale.
42:20I'll soon replace you as the new Mrs. CEO.
42:23Blame yourself.
42:24You've been married for so long
42:25and still can't even hold your own husband's heart.
42:27No fever, huh?
42:28What are you dreaming about in broad date light?
42:30Elena Hale.
42:32Just be jealous.
42:33Since we were kids, everything that was yours,
42:36if I liked it, I could take it.
42:38This time is no exception.
42:39What can be taken away is trash.
42:41I don't want it.
42:42What can't be taken away is truly mine.
42:44Elena Hale.
42:45Keep talking tough.
42:47Just like your useless mother,
42:48you'll be kicked out of the foreign family by me sooner or later.
42:52One word, one slap.
42:53Want to curse again?
42:54Elena Hale.
42:55You won't be smug for long.
42:57I've already told Damon Thorn all the ugly things you did in the past.
43:07What's wrong?
43:08Who in the Thorn group dares to upset you?
43:10Tell me. I'll go teach her a lesson.
43:12It's nothing. Just family matters.
43:13By the way, have you seen Mia Hale today? My stepsister?
43:16Bumped into her downstairs.
43:19What did she say to you?
43:21She said you used to have an online relationship.
43:24That's all in the past. Do you care?
43:26I once fell for a girl.
43:27We never met in person, but we kept each other company for a long time.
43:31She said her mother was seriously ill and her stepmother treated her badly.
43:38We agreed to meet at the gate of New York University.
43:41I promised to take her away, but she stood me up that day.
43:44Later, I received news that she had passed away.
43:47Are you? Her?
43:50Mia Hale, my mom's condition has worsened.
43:52She's in the ICU and needs surgery urgently.
43:55Can you help me contact Dad? I can't get through to him.
43:59Sure. Dad went to the Thorn family to discuss business.
44:02If you run over there now, you might still catch him.
44:08Idiot. Dad's already on a business trip. Good luck finding him.
44:13I hope she really gets hit by a car and dies.
44:19I hope she really gets hit by a car and dies.
44:22So that's how it was.
44:24Mia Hale, I won't let her get away with this.
44:28Back then, I thought you regretted it, so I didn't add you back.
44:31Later on, I worked part-time while studying,
44:34earning money for my mom's treatment and saving up for tuition.
44:37I didn't have time to think about these things anymore.
44:41I'm sorry.
44:43If only I had found out earlier.
44:45No need to apologize to me.
44:47We're doing just fine now.
44:49I'll make Mia Hale regret everything she did to you.
44:53Spread the word.
44:54Mia Hale has offended me.
44:56Anyone who dares to cooperate with the Hale family is going against me, Damon Thorne.
45:01Honey, you're becoming more and more like a dominary CEO.
45:04And do you like it?
45:08I do.
45:09I've liked you since the first time I saw you.
45:12What a coincidence.
45:14Me too.
45:15Two examples.
45:17Three.
45:17Three.
