00:00:06Sous-titrage Société Radio-Canada
00:00:30Elena is back. My days as the substitute are finally over. I'm finally free.
00:00:36In our freshman year, both Elena and I were poor students living on scholarships.
00:00:41But with that innocent face of hers, she became the goddess of every man on campus, including the heir to
00:00:47a top-tier family, Logan.
00:00:49Elena, come to the Grammy Awards with me. Seats like these aren't something you can just buy with money.
00:00:54Sorry, I need to go to the library to study. Mr. Logan, your money can buy everything, but it can't
00:01:00buy my respect.
00:01:05You're broke too, right? Help me win her over. If she falls for me, I'll fund you.
00:01:10I knew Elena was just playing hard to get, but my father was hospitalized, and I was even about to
00:01:14drop out of school because of it.
00:01:15So I desperately needed that money to save him.
00:01:17Deal.
00:01:18Elena got a top-tier university offer to Cambridge funded by Logan, and I, I became her substitute.
00:01:26Logan's caged canori.
00:01:31They think I've been discarded. That I'll become the laughing-ass gang of the world.
00:01:41Miss Ava, Lucas, the chief of Operation Liberty Finance, been waiting for you for three hours, ready to sign the
00:01:45contract with you.
00:01:50Okay.
00:01:52Actually, the life that truly belongs to me is just beginning. Having broken free from the shackles of the debt
00:01:58of gratitude, I will become the queen of this world.
00:02:09Ava, it's been five years. Our CEO has been waiting for you to say yes. I'll book you a first
00:02:15-class ticket right now.
00:02:19Alright, I'll head over now.
00:02:22Give me one more week. I still have some loose ends to tie up.
00:02:27You are a born queen of commerce. We await your leadership to make us a legend on Wall Street.
00:02:33Boss, great news. Ava signed. That genius girl who once ruled Wall Street is coming.
00:02:39Five years. I can finally see my light again.
00:02:49Ava, you're too slow. Can't you see Elena's hands are red from the shopping bags?
00:02:54Ava, I'm so sorry. These are just too heavy. I have to trouble you with them?
00:02:58It's no trouble at all. Happy to help.
00:03:00By the way, I found a woman's hair tie in Logan's bedroom. It wouldn't be yours, would it?
00:03:05Elena, don't talk nonsense. That was left by the cleaning staff.
00:03:09Ava moved out. After you left, how could she possibly be in my bedroom?
00:03:13Just kidding. Look how nervous you are.
00:03:16Justing Remichin, Ava, go line up for that limited edition item for us. Hurry up.
00:03:21Ava, Elena is quite conservative. I don't want her to hear any gossip about these five years.
00:03:26Trying to boyfriend meaty so Elena won't suspect anything.
00:03:28Fine. I'll find a suitable divergent.
00:03:34His real princess has returned. It's time for this substitute to exit Eisner in his world.
00:03:43Sorry, I just got off the phone with an international headhunter. All the big companies want to pojic me.
00:03:49Of course they do. Here, try this. It's all your favorites.
00:03:54Ava, why aren't you touching your cutlery? This seafood was flown in fresh. It's very expensive.
00:03:59I'm not hungry. Oh, I remember now. You're allergic to seafood. Logan, should we change restaurants?
00:04:05No need. She said she's not hungry.
00:04:07He knows perfectly well I'm allergic to seafood and he knows Elena chose this place on purpose.
00:04:12It seems he doesn't care about my feelings at all.
00:04:14Ava, I invited a few old classmates tonight welcome Elena back. She missed your home-cooked meals.
00:04:20Go back to the villa tonight and prepare you a feast.
00:04:22All right. Logan, Ava is, after all, the group's executive president. Isn't it inappropriate to her cook like a maid?
00:04:28What's inappropriate about it? Everything she has today is thanks to my support.
00:04:31As long as I ask, she wouldn't dare say no. Right, Ava?
00:04:35Yes, Mr. Logan.
00:04:47Logan, are you serious? Ava's been with you for five years and you're really gonna kick her out?
00:04:52Who said I was in a relationship with her?
00:04:54She was just a stand-in for Elena.
00:04:57Don't show anything in front of Elena. She's proud. She knew I used Ava as a substitute. She did feel
00:05:02insult.
00:05:02You're so devoted. You've had your eyes on Elena since college.
00:05:05But honestly, Ava is incredibly capable. Not only did she manage her company flawlessly, but she was also obedient in
00:05:09bed.
00:05:10Are you really willing to let her go?
00:05:11The passenger seat in my life is reserved only for a real princess.
00:05:15As for Ava, she's not worthy.
00:05:20Ava? What are you doing standing at the door with the fruit platter spacing out?
00:05:32Oh my god, was Ava at the door just now? Did she hear everything we said about her being cheap?
00:05:38So what if she did? Does she dare to get angry? Unless she wants to go back to the slums
00:05:42and beg for food.
00:05:45Mmm, so sweet. Logan, this personal assistant you keep really is better at cutting fruit than the hired help outside.
00:05:52Everyone thinks I'll break down, but I'm actually more cling-headed than anyone.
00:05:55In these five years, he never gave me love, and I, in turn, never truly gave him my heart.
00:06:01The fruit platter is ready. The main course will be served shortly.
00:06:05She clearly heard those words herds just now, way so much she have any reaction at all. Doesn't she care?
00:06:10Logan, we're partying here while the executive vice president is busy alone in the kitchen.
00:06:14Isn't that a bit too much?
00:06:15Hmph. This is what she's supposed to do. Let's keep playing.
00:06:20Ava, you've worked hard. Come join us and eat.
00:06:25I'm not hungry. Enjoy yourselves.
00:06:29Don't mind her.
00:06:30Let's toast to celebrate Elena's return home.
00:06:33Elena, you're our goddess.
00:06:35This drink is to wish you a triumphant entry into the Vanderbilt Group upon your return and a brilliant future.
00:06:40I... I'm allergic to alcohol. I really can't drink something that strong.
00:06:44Old classmate, that's not very considerate, is it?
00:06:47You have to at least make a gesture.
00:06:49Elena is delicate and can't handle this kind of thing.
00:06:52Ava, come here and drink it for her.
00:06:55Fine.
00:07:04Logan, you're spoiling Elena too much.
00:07:06Anyone who toasts her, you make Ava take the hit?
00:07:09Ava has a high tolerance.
00:07:11A little of this strong liquor won't hurt her.
00:07:13Then I have to toast the goddess too.
00:07:15Ava, cheers?
00:07:16Everything is about to end.
00:07:17In these last few days with Logan, I won't refuse any requests he makes.
00:07:24Ava, thank you for your hard work.
00:07:26I really wouldn't know what to do without you.
00:07:28So, even someone as arrogant and self-hortant as Logan can be tender-hearted.
00:07:32It's a pity that the one who helps in the promise will never be me.
00:07:40I don't like hearing those classmates linking you with Ava, even if she's just a substitute.
00:07:45Baby, my heart is yours.
00:07:47Ava is just our servant.
00:07:49You had a few glasses of champagne.
00:07:52Are you feeling dizzy?
00:07:53Don't be jealous for no reason.
00:07:55I've already declared to everyone that you are the future mistress of the group.
00:07:59I'll forgive you this time.
00:08:01Ava, you were really drunk.
00:08:02Let Logan drive you back to your apartment.
00:08:05No need.
00:08:05I can walk by myself.
00:08:07I have important business to attend to.
00:08:09Take a taxi yourself.
00:08:10Ava, don't make me think you can't even take care of yourself.
00:08:32Ava, didn't I tell you to find a man as a shield immediately?
00:08:35Why is there still no movement?
00:08:37I just finished being forced to drink by you, Mr. Logan.
00:08:41Don't play the victim with me.
00:08:44You're dragging your feet.
00:08:46Are you still holding on to some unrealistic fantasy about me?
00:08:53I didn't, Mr. Logan.
00:08:54Don't worry.
00:08:55I'll find one soon.
00:08:56Don't lie.
00:08:57Elena is starting to suspect us.
00:08:59I won't allow you to tarnish the pure love between her and me.
00:09:03Don't worry.
00:09:04One more week, and I'll disappear completely from your world.
00:09:09So eager to jump into someone else's arms.
00:09:11That shield better be a decent one.
00:09:14Don't embarrass me.
00:09:24You told me to find one?
00:09:26You're so obedient, it's disgusting.
00:09:30Logan, I miss you.
00:09:31Can I move into your villa tomorrow?
00:09:33Of course, baby.
00:09:35My room is always waiting for you.
00:09:39Pick me and Elena up at 8 tomorrow morning to go to the company.
00:09:46What are your plans after returning?
00:09:48Where do you want to go?
00:09:49I want to help you with the Vandeboe group.
00:09:51I don't want to be just a freeloader.
00:09:53Good.
00:09:54I'll give you a surprise later.
00:09:56I want the whole world to know who the real mistress of this company is.
00:10:00Actually, I got a top-tier master's in finance abroad just to help you.
00:10:05We're here.
00:10:06Darling, it's my first day.
00:10:08We should keep our distance.
00:10:09I don't want people saying I got the job through connections.
00:10:12That wouldn't be noble.
00:10:13See?
00:10:14She's still as pure and independent as she was in college.
00:10:16Newman nowadays will do anything to climb the ladder.
00:10:19From assembled, Genro and her considered it.
00:10:21Maybe she's the only one.
00:10:22Notify the board.
00:10:24We're having an all-hands executive meeting in 10 minutes.
00:10:26I have major per-personnel changes.
00:10:28All right.
00:10:29I'll take care of it right away.
00:10:34I heard there will be a major personnel announcement today.
00:10:36Ava doubled the company's performance,
00:10:38so she's definitely getting promoted to co-CEO at the headquarters.
00:10:41Naturally.
00:10:41Vanderbilt Group has relied entirely on Ava for the past five years.
00:10:44Based on merit, it has to be her.
00:10:46Ava, don't forget about us when you get promoted.
00:10:48Actually, I was just about to...
00:10:51Only one thing will be announced today.
00:10:55Regarding the appointment of the former executive vice president, Ava.
00:10:58Congratulations.
00:10:59Is Ava being transferred to the New York headquarters as CEO?
00:11:02No.
00:11:03I announce Ava is hereby relieved of her position as executive vice president
00:11:08and demoted to vice president's assistant.
00:11:11What?
00:11:12Demoted instead of promoted?
00:11:13To an assistant?
00:11:14Mr. Logan, Ava generated a billion dollars in profit for the company last year.
00:11:18And the person taking over the vice president position is a financial genius we just recruited from Cambridge.
00:11:23Miss Elena.
00:11:25Hello, everyone.
00:11:26Although I lack practical experience,
00:11:28I believe my international perspective is more suited to leading the company to a higher level.
00:11:32This is absurd.
00:11:33Replacing a meritorious vice president with an inexperienced rookie?
00:11:36Enough.
00:11:37Who is the master of this company?
00:11:39My word is the command.
00:11:41Ava, as an assistant,
00:11:43you'd better do your utmost to help Elena familiar herself with business.
00:11:47If she makes the slightest mistake, I'll hold you couple.
00:11:50Okay.
00:11:52Ava, are you crazy?
00:11:54This is too humiliating.
00:11:55I have never objected to Mr. Logan's decisions.
00:11:58Vice president Elena, please follow me to your office.
00:12:01Then I'll trouble you, assistant Ava.
00:12:04This is your office.
00:12:05Assistant Ava,
00:12:07there's a bit of dust on the tip of my shoe.
00:12:09Since you were so skilled at serving Logan before now,
00:12:12clean it for me too.
00:12:17Is Elena crazy?
00:12:19She's actually making Ava clean her shoes?
00:12:21This is a downright insult to her dignity.
00:12:23Don't be impulsive.
00:12:24APA must have her reasons for doing this.
00:12:28Oh my god, Ava's really kneeling down to clean them?
00:12:31This is absurd.
00:12:32Ava, I'm warning you.
00:12:34Back then, it was because of me that Logan even gave you a second glance.
00:12:37Without me, you'd still be washing dishes in the slums.
00:12:40It's thanks to my face that you've climbed to where you are today.
00:12:43Does it hurt?
00:12:44Remember this feeling of lowiness.
00:12:46You're nothing but a dog I've graciously allowed to exist.
00:12:49Don't even think about overstepping your bounds,
00:12:51and don't you dare try to seduce my Logan.
00:12:54Don't worry, Elena.
00:12:55I'm very clear about my place in Mr. Logan's heart.
00:12:58I've never coveted things that don't belong to me.
00:13:00Stubborn words are useless.
00:13:02Honey, want to go see a movie tonight?
00:13:04There's a new project at Universal Studios.
00:13:06I'll wait for you.
00:13:07Okay, see you then.
00:13:08You already have a boyfriend?
00:13:10Logan, I have good news for you.
00:13:12Ava has a boyfriend.
00:13:13I thought she had a crush on you all along.
00:13:14It seems I was overthinking it.
00:13:15I think you've misunderstood.
00:13:16The relationship between me and President Logan
00:13:18is purely one of sponsorship and employment.
00:13:20I've never had any appropriate thoughts.
00:13:22For and over, I love my boyfriend very much.
00:13:24Damn it.
00:13:25I just told her last night to find a male companion,
00:13:27and she's already found one today.
00:13:29Is there really not an angle place for me in her heart?
00:13:31Perfect.
00:13:32In a few days, there's a company team-building event
00:13:33to celebrate my appointment.
00:13:34Ava, bring your nonpoing along.
00:13:36Let's see you just talk stranding the man
00:13:37who chunk her on an or new Jillian Drenrys.
00:13:39Yes, I'm also been curious.
00:13:41Ava, bring him long, then.
00:13:43No problem.
00:13:44Mr. Logan, we have an appointment with Mr. Grant
00:13:46from Grant Financial Group to sign the contract.
00:13:48It's the most important order of the year.
00:13:49Elena, this deal is crucial for the company's IPO.
00:13:52We must secure it.
00:13:53Don't worry, darling.
00:13:54With my overseas background,
00:13:55I guarantee we'll nail the negotiation beautifully.
00:13:59Mr. Grant, this is Ms. Elena,
00:14:01the company's new vice president.
00:14:02She is fully responsible for today's contract renewal negotiation.
00:14:05What?
00:14:05I remember Grant Financial's business
00:14:07has always been handled by you.
00:14:08Who is this administrative rookie?
00:14:10Mr. Grant,
00:14:22Pervert,
00:14:23you're actually peeking at me.
00:14:25What nonsense are you talking about?
00:14:26I'm reading the 12th clause about compensating.
00:14:28Stop pretending.
00:14:30I've seen plenty of self-righteous men like you.
00:14:32It's disgusting.
00:14:33Don't think just because you're rich
00:14:35you can casually harass women.
00:14:37You dare hit me?
00:14:38I'm hitting you, you pervert.
00:14:39I'll use Logan's connections
00:14:40to ruin your reputation in New York.
00:14:42Vanderbilt Group
00:14:43letting a paranoid lunark like this
00:14:44be vice president
00:14:44means bankruptcy is just around the corner.
00:14:46The deal is off,
00:14:47and I will withdraw all funding
00:14:48from Grant Financial.
00:14:49Mr. Grant,
00:14:50this is a misunderstanding.
00:14:51Please let me explain.
00:14:52Ava, I pity you
00:14:53wasting your talent
00:14:54in this garbage dump.
00:14:55Vanderbilt Group is finished.
00:14:59Elena,
00:14:59if you've destroyed
00:15:00the company's most important changing,
00:15:01it's just some disgusting man
00:15:02who can't control his eyes.
00:15:04What's the big deal?
00:15:05Logan will handle it.
00:15:14Why are you dressed like this?
00:15:25Can you pretend to be my boyfriend
00:15:27for one night?
00:15:28The pay is $3,000.
00:15:32Don't worry, sis.
00:15:34I'm a professional.
00:15:35I guarantee I'll make
00:15:36your colleagues stare.
00:15:38Remember, talk less later.
00:15:40Don't give us away.
00:15:41Don't worry.
00:15:41I'm certified in playing
00:15:42the affectionate puppy dog type.
00:15:47Wow, Ava.
00:15:48This couldn't be your
00:15:49Mr. Right, could it?
00:15:50That outfit is terrifying.
00:15:52Little brother,
00:15:53what high position do you hold?
00:15:54Hello, sis.
00:15:55I'm the hottest face blogger
00:15:56on the entire internet.
00:15:57Search for Gritz Aquos
00:15:58to find me,
00:15:59remember to follow,
00:15:59and send me a sports car.
00:16:00Logan,
00:16:01your former vice president's
00:16:02taste is truly unique.
00:16:03But then again,
00:16:04this kind of influencer
00:16:05who lives off their looks
00:16:06is a perfect match
00:16:06for her status.
00:16:07Ava,
00:16:08I never thought your taste
00:16:09was this poor
00:16:10that you'd stoop so low
00:16:11as to hire such a cheap performer.
00:16:13Why not?
00:16:14In my heart,
00:16:15he's much more genuine
00:16:16than those hypocritical elites.
00:16:19True.
00:16:20Bottom feeders love
00:16:21this kind of influencer the most.
00:16:23By the way,
00:16:23all the guests have arrived.
00:16:25Didn't you say
00:16:25you had a special
00:16:26welcome back gift for me?
00:16:28Hey,
00:16:29I haven't even started
00:16:30showing off my acting skills yet.
00:16:31Why did they leave?
00:16:32Enough.
00:16:32Your job is done.
00:16:34The final payment
00:16:35has been sent.
00:16:36Go.
00:16:36Thanks, sponsor sis.
00:16:45Lena,
00:16:45this is a welcome gift
00:16:46to celebrate
00:16:47your official entry
00:16:48into the Vanderbilt Group.
00:16:51Darling,
00:16:52it's so beautiful.
00:16:53It's perfect.
00:16:57Ava,
00:16:58does this Rolex
00:16:59look good
00:16:59with my skin tone?
00:17:03It does.
00:17:07If it weren't for paying off
00:17:08that astronomical debt
00:17:10for my family,
00:17:11I wouldn't have sold myself
00:17:12to Logan.
00:17:13I could have had
00:17:14the purest love too,
00:17:15right?
00:17:26Miss Ava,
00:17:27tomorrow is the day
00:17:28you officially take over
00:17:29as CEO of Liberty Financial.
00:17:31Mr. Liam and I
00:17:32are both waiting for you.
00:17:34Don't worry,
00:17:34I'll be there on time tomorrow.
00:17:36The contract is signed
00:17:37and I won't break it.
00:17:38Excellent.
00:17:39We are very much
00:17:41looking forward
00:17:41to your leadership.
00:17:42The time for farewell
00:17:43has finally come.
00:17:45Logan,
00:17:45thank you for the
00:17:46financial support
00:17:47back then,
00:17:47for saving my
00:17:48critically ill mother
00:17:49and for giving me
00:17:50a foothold
00:17:50in this cold city.
00:17:51Thank you for giving me
00:17:52the dream of a rebirth,
00:17:53even though I knew
00:17:54that in your heart
00:17:55I would always be
00:17:56just a humble shadow.
00:17:57I heard you're
00:17:58the poorest student
00:17:59who needs money the most.
00:18:00Help me win over Elena
00:18:01and I'll fund you
00:18:02through college.
00:18:05Elena,
00:18:06don't leave me.
00:18:09For these five years,
00:18:11I've dutifully served
00:18:12as his substitute,
00:18:13accompanying him
00:18:14through his darkest hours.
00:18:15In my heart,
00:18:16you were once
00:18:17an unreachable star,
00:18:18but I'm tired.
00:18:19Goodbye,
00:18:20my former obsession.
00:18:21Goodbye,
00:18:22my shattered youth.
00:18:23Chairman Logan,
00:18:26this glass,
00:18:27I toast to you.
00:18:28Thank you for all your
00:18:29care over the years.
00:18:30Today I'd like to talk
00:18:31to you about my
00:18:32Chairman,
00:18:32it's terrible.
00:18:33Grant Financial
00:18:34just formally issued
00:18:35a legal letter
00:18:36announcing a complete
00:18:37withdrawal of investment
00:18:38and suing us
00:18:38for a bridge of contract.
00:18:40The company's stock price
00:18:40has already hit
00:18:41the limit down.
00:18:46Chairman,
00:18:47something terrible
00:18:48has happened.
00:18:49Grant Financial
00:18:49has not only
00:18:50terminated all cooperation,
00:18:52but has also joined forces
00:18:53with the four major
00:18:54investment banks
00:18:54on Wall Street
00:18:55to launch a comprehensive
00:18:56blockade against us.
00:18:58How is that possible?
00:19:00Grant has been
00:19:00our staunch ally
00:19:01for five years.
00:19:02Why would they
00:19:03suddenly turn against us?
00:19:04On the day of the signing,
00:19:05Vice President Elena
00:19:06maliciously speculated
00:19:07that Chairman Grant
00:19:08was peeping at her
00:19:09and even slapped him
00:19:10in public.
00:19:11He insulted me first!
00:19:12He was staring at my chest!
00:19:13I was just defending
00:19:14my dignity as a woman!
00:19:16Ava,
00:19:16I told you to assist Elena.
00:19:18Are you dead?
00:19:19Grant Financial
00:19:20is the source
00:19:20of half of our company's funding.
00:19:22Don't you understand
00:19:22the consequences
00:19:23of offending such a giant?
00:19:25If you had stopped
00:19:25this foolish behavior in time,
00:19:27how could things
00:19:28have got this rotten?
00:19:29Chair dot.
00:19:30Niseva tried her best
00:19:31to stop it
00:19:31and even demanded Elena
00:19:32apologize immediately.
00:19:33It was Elena
00:19:34who wouldn't listen
00:19:35and even threatened Niseva.
00:19:36That's right.
00:19:36If Miss Ava
00:19:37hadn't intervened,
00:19:38Elena would have
00:19:39probably torn
00:19:39the other party
00:19:40to shreds
00:19:40right there
00:19:41in the conference room.
00:19:42Ava!
00:19:43Even if she stopped you,
00:19:45couldn't you have
00:19:45called me directly?
00:19:46Where is your professionalism?
00:19:47You actually concealed
00:19:48such a catastrophic disaster
00:19:49and didn't report it.
00:19:50Chairman,
00:19:51President Amba
00:19:52was about to report it
00:19:53at the time,
00:19:53but Vice President Elena
00:19:55said she would communicate
00:19:55with you personally.
00:19:56It seems she didn't
00:19:57mention a single word.
00:19:58Honey,
00:19:59I just wanted to find
00:19:59the right time to explain.
00:20:01I didn't know
00:20:01that man would be so petty.
00:20:02Chairman,
00:20:03the board of directors
00:20:03at headquarters
00:20:04demands you return
00:20:05for a meeting immediately.
00:20:06They hope Una gives
00:20:06a German
00:20:07a reasonable explanation.
00:20:09Ava,
00:20:10come with me.
00:20:19Elena just joined
00:20:20Vanderbilt Group.
00:20:21She is my chosen
00:20:22future wife
00:20:22and her record
00:20:23absolutely cannot
00:20:24have any blemish.
00:20:26so you plan to make
00:20:28me the scapegoat?
00:20:28I will personally
00:20:29submit a report
00:20:30to the board.
00:20:31It will state
00:20:31that it was your
00:20:32overstepping and privation
00:20:33that angered Mr. Grant
00:20:35and led to the withdrawal
00:20:36of funds.
00:20:36Don't worry.
00:20:37Once the dust settles,
00:20:39I'll find a way
00:20:39to bring you back.
00:20:40Making me take the bullet
00:20:41for him again.
00:20:42In these five years,
00:20:43how many messes
00:20:44have I cleaned up for him?
00:20:45How many times
00:20:45I've been the fall guy?
00:20:47Logan,
00:20:47how can you be so at ease
00:20:48without even a seal
00:20:49of quills?
00:20:51Logan,
00:20:52one should be responsible
00:20:53for one's own actions.
00:20:54If Ava isn't reeling,
00:20:55just let me resign
00:20:56and take the blame.
00:20:57I don't want to see you
00:20:58in a difficult position
00:20:59because of me.
00:21:01Ava,
00:21:01do you really need me
00:21:02to beg you?
00:21:03You handled taking the fall
00:21:04so perfectly before.
00:21:05Why are you acting
00:21:06so unwilling
00:21:06in front of Elena?
00:21:07Don't you know
00:21:07your stubbornness now
00:21:08is destroying
00:21:09all our hard work?
00:21:14Fine.
00:21:15This one last time.
00:21:17I'll take the bullet
00:21:18for you one last time.
00:21:20Why did she agree
00:21:21so readily?
00:21:22Why is she leaving
00:21:23so decisively this time?
00:21:25Could it be
00:21:25I really went too far?
00:21:27Darling,
00:21:27stop thinking
00:21:28about that assistant.
00:21:29She took your money.
00:21:30It's her honor
00:21:30to take the fall for me.
00:21:31Today is my first celebration
00:21:32after joining the company.
00:21:34Don't keep the executives waiting.
00:21:35What are you feeling
00:21:36guilty about?
00:21:37Ava is just a dog.
00:21:39Even if she occasionally
00:21:40gets upset,
00:21:41long you give her
00:21:42some luxury goods,
00:21:43she like Logrie Chan-me
00:21:45at your foot
00:21:45that's your runt.
00:21:47Let's go.
00:21:48Tonight,
00:21:48you are the only star.
00:21:55What are you doing here?
00:21:57Mr. Grant,
00:21:58I am here on behalf
00:21:59of the group
00:21:59to formally apologize to you.
00:22:02To Vice President Elena
00:22:03and to the glory
00:22:04that awaits us.
00:22:05Congratulations, Elena.
00:22:07Cheers!
00:22:07Get out with your
00:22:08chief apology!
00:22:09Tell Logan to kneel
00:22:10before me himself
00:22:11or this isn't over!
00:22:17In New York,
00:22:18no one dares to touch
00:22:18Grant's face.
00:22:19You want to make peace?
00:22:21Dream on.
00:22:21Mr. Grant,
00:22:22I take full responsibility
00:22:24for this matter.
00:22:24As long as you can calm down,
00:22:26we are willing to bear
00:22:26all responsibility
00:22:27and provide compensation.
00:22:29To calm me down?
00:22:30Sure.
00:22:30If you drink all of these,
00:22:32I'll consider withdrawing
00:22:33the lawyer's letter.
00:22:33Fine.
00:22:34Wait a minute.
00:22:35Since you're taking the blame
00:22:36for someone else,
00:22:37you should at least
00:22:38have the posture of begging,
00:22:39right?
00:22:40Drink on your knee.
00:22:41That's right.
00:22:41In this city of New York,
00:22:43no one who asks Grant
00:22:44for a favor
00:22:45does it standing up.
00:22:47What?
00:22:48Can't stand the humiliation?
00:22:50Then get out.
00:23:11Elena,
00:23:12the future of the Vanderbilt Group
00:23:13depends on you
00:23:14to lead us to new heights.
00:23:16Congratulations, Miss Elena,
00:23:18on securing your throne.
00:23:19Cheers.
00:23:24I wonder if that woman Ava
00:23:26can get Grant's
00:23:26letter of understanding.
00:23:51Oh, my God!
00:23:52Ava just released
00:23:53a public statement.
00:23:54She announced she takes
00:23:55full responsibility
00:23:55for the grant withdrawal incident
00:23:57and is formally resigning.
00:24:01Resigning?
00:24:02She dares to resign?
00:24:05Ava,
00:24:06what the hell
00:24:07are you trying to do?
00:24:08Who gave you permission
00:24:09to leave me
00:24:09at a time like this?
00:24:11Why is Logan losing control
00:24:12like this
00:24:13just because Ava resigned?
00:24:14That look in his eyes.
00:24:15He's never shown it to me.
00:24:17Could it be
00:24:17he still loves Ava?
00:24:22You're funding back then
00:24:23allowed me to finish college.
00:24:25You truly were the only
00:24:26beam of light
00:24:27in the darkest night
00:24:28of my life.
00:24:29Over these five years,
00:24:30I've made you profits
00:24:31a hundredfold.
00:24:32All my savings
00:24:33are in this card.
00:24:34Enough to offset
00:24:35all your benevolency
00:24:36from back then.
00:24:37Goodbye forever, Logan.
00:24:43Ava,
00:24:44these reports
00:24:44must be redone
00:24:45before the end
00:24:45of the day today.
00:24:46Also,
00:24:47go to that
00:24:47Michelin-starred restaurant
00:24:48at Moon and queue up
00:24:49to make a reservation
00:24:50for me.
00:24:50Logan likes their truffles.
00:24:51You can keep this garbage
00:24:52and chew on it yourself.
00:24:54As for making a reservation,
00:24:55if you're not so useless
00:24:56that your legs are broken,
00:24:58go roll over there yourself.
00:25:00I'm no longer
00:25:00an employee here.
00:25:01You have no right
00:25:02to order me around.
00:25:03Ava,
00:25:03where do you get the nerve
00:25:04to talk to me like that?
00:25:05Without me,
00:25:06you're not even fit
00:25:07to shine Logan's shoes
00:25:08since you want to get lost.
00:25:09Get lost far away.
00:25:10Disappear from New York
00:25:11completely
00:25:11and don't come back
00:25:12wagging your tail
00:25:13like a stray dog.
00:25:14Elena,
00:25:14you've played the part
00:25:15of that pure money
00:25:16disdaining White Moon Knight
00:25:17very successfully.
00:25:18But remember,
00:25:19a play is just a play.
00:25:20When Logan discovers
00:25:21the rot beneath
00:25:21that skin of yours,
00:25:22I hope you can still
00:25:23smile so brightly.
00:25:35Chairman,
00:25:36the accounts are settled.
00:25:38Thank you for the hell
00:25:39you've given me
00:25:40all these years.
00:25:41It's made me invincible.
00:25:52Ava,
00:25:53you really left?
00:25:56How dare she leave
00:25:57without my permission?
00:26:01Ava,
00:26:02I'll use all my votes
00:26:03on the board
00:26:03to keep you.
00:26:04I haven't approved
00:26:05this resignation report yet.
00:26:06Get back to the company
00:26:07right now.
00:26:09Chairman Logan,
00:26:10there's no need.
00:26:10The nature of this
00:26:11withdrawal incident
00:26:12is extremely severe.
00:26:14Vanderbilt Group
00:26:14must give the other party
00:26:15an explanation
00:26:16and I am the best scapegoat.
00:26:18You make a good point.
00:26:19Let's ride out
00:26:19this storm first.
00:26:20Once those old guys
00:26:21calm down,
00:26:22I'll bring you back.
00:26:23Also,
00:26:24take that black card
00:26:25on the table.
00:26:25It's your compensation.
00:26:27I never intended for you
00:26:28to pay back
00:26:28that tuition money.
00:26:29Chairman,
00:26:29I don't like owing debts
00:26:30and I especially
00:26:31don't like owing favors.
00:26:33The money in that card
00:26:34was what you funded me
00:26:35with for university.
00:26:36I paid it all back to you.
00:26:38Ava,
00:26:38because I let Elena
00:26:39take your position
00:26:39and made you take
00:26:40the fall for her
00:26:41that you're unhappy?
00:26:42You have to understand
00:26:43my predicament.
00:26:44Elena just returned
00:26:45to the country.
00:26:45She needs a perfect resume
00:26:47to solidify her position
00:26:48in the company.
00:26:49Your abilities are known
00:26:50throughout New York.
00:26:51Even if you take this blame,
00:26:52it won't hurt
00:26:53your foundation at all.
00:26:54I'm not angry.
00:26:55In fact,
00:26:55I'm even grateful
00:26:56for taking this fall.
00:26:57It made me realize
00:26:58how liberating freedom feels.
00:27:00Where exactly
00:27:00are you planning to go?
00:27:01To a place
00:27:02where there's no more
00:27:03you and Elena.
00:27:04Isn't that what
00:27:05you've always wanted most?
00:27:06From now on,
00:27:08no one will stand
00:27:08in the way
00:27:09of your white mood line anymore.
00:27:11I...
00:27:11Ava,
00:27:12listen to me.
00:27:14The boarding announcement
00:27:15is on.
00:27:16Goodbye, Logan.
00:27:40Darling,
00:27:40I'm so happy today.
00:27:42We should celebrate
00:27:42being together.
00:27:43And why not invite Ava, too?
00:27:44All she's worked so hard
00:27:45all these years.
00:27:46She sees our happiness
00:27:47with her own eyes.
00:28:02Five years of waiting
00:28:04have finally borne fruit tonight.
00:28:05In this world,
00:28:07nothing is more precious
00:28:08than a love
00:28:08that's been lost
00:28:09and found again.
00:28:10I love you, Logan.
00:28:12Congratulations!
00:28:13True lovers
00:28:14are destined
00:28:14to be together.
00:28:16The one Logan truly loves
00:28:18has always been
00:28:19only you.
00:28:20Congratulations!
00:28:21You are the only
00:28:23queen for Logan.
00:28:28Five years of waiting
00:28:29have finally borne fruit tonight.
00:28:31In this world,
00:28:32nothing is more precious

00:29:05Welcome to Los Angeles.
00:29:07I'm also very happy
00:29:09to arrive

00:29:17Welcome aboard.

00:29:33to lead Liberty Financial
00:29:35to conquer Wall Street
00:29:37and create glory
00:29:39that belongs to us.
00:29:41Alright,
00:29:43I'll give it my all.
00:29:51Ava,
00:29:52Elena has officially
00:29:54accepted my proposal.
00:29:55We're having a celebration
00:29:56party at the penthouse
00:29:58tonight.
00:29:58You should come.
00:29:59Elena said
00:30:00she wants you
00:30:00to witness
00:30:01our happiest moment
00:30:02with your own eyes.
00:30:04I won't be going.
00:30:05That kind of moment
00:30:06belongs only
00:30:07to the two of you.
00:30:08There's no need
00:30:09to share it
00:30:09with an outsider.
00:30:10Congratulations.
00:30:11Ava,
00:30:11are you still sulking
00:30:12with me over
00:30:13the scapegoat incident?
00:30:14When did you become
00:30:14so petty,
00:30:15so unreasonable?
00:30:16You should understand
00:30:17my disfella.
00:30:17It was for the greater good.
00:30:19You're overthinking it.
00:30:21I'm really not angry.
00:30:22Alright,
00:30:23I'm very busy.
00:30:24That's all.
00:30:25Fuck.
00:30:26Fuck.
00:30:27Fuck.
00:30:27Fuck.
00:30:28Fuck.
00:30:29Fuck.
00:30:29Fuck.
00:30:33Logan,
00:30:34I've already
00:30:35repaid your kindness
00:30:36with five years
00:30:36of my freedom.
00:30:38From now on,
00:30:38our worlds
00:30:39will no longer intersect.
00:30:40My life is only
00:30:41truly beginning now.
00:30:49Ava!
00:30:50You damn woman,
00:30:51not only did you
00:30:52reject me,
00:30:53but you actually
00:30:53dared to hang up on me.
00:30:55She's getting more
00:30:56in there,
00:30:56Godinus.
00:30:57Sorry,
00:30:58the number in the dial
00:30:59is powered out.
00:31:00Darling,
00:31:01Ava must still
00:31:01be angry with me.
00:31:03It's all my fault.
00:31:04How about on our wedding day?
00:31:06I go and invite her
00:31:07personally.
00:31:09I believe she'll
00:31:10eventually bless us
00:31:11with tears in her eyes.
00:31:19exactly.
00:31:20What right does she have
00:31:21to refuse me?
00:31:23Everything she has now
00:31:24was given by me.
00:31:26She's nothing but a dog
00:31:27I raised.
00:31:29It won't be long
00:31:30before she gets
00:31:31knocked around
00:31:31and bruised out there
00:31:33and then obediently
00:31:34crawls back,
00:31:35begging me to take her in.
00:31:38But why
00:31:39did her tone
00:31:39sound so unfamiliar
00:31:40just now?
00:31:41This feeling
00:31:42of losing my grip,
00:31:43could it really
00:31:43be just an illusion?
00:31:44Why do I have this feeling
00:31:45that she's going
00:31:46to disappear from my side?
00:32:04Ava, welcome to Liberty Financial.
00:32:06From today on,
00:32:08this is your stage.
00:32:11Chairman,
00:32:12we have a major problem.
00:32:13Our merger negotiations
00:32:14with Everett Group
00:32:14have completely reached
00:32:15a deadlock.
00:32:16The other party's
00:32:16chief negotiator
00:32:17suddenly turned hostile,
00:32:18demanding an additional
00:32:1920% of equity shares
00:32:20on op of the original terms,
00:32:21or they'll terminate
00:32:22the cooperation immediately.
00:32:24What?
00:32:24We've been preparing
00:32:25for this project
00:32:26for five whole years,
00:32:27investing hundreds of millions
00:32:28of dollars in upfront capital.
00:32:30If it collapses now,
00:32:31the group's cash flow
00:32:32will dry up instantly.
00:32:33We won't be able
00:32:33to hold on.
00:32:34Are the people they sent
00:32:36that guy nicked him
00:32:36the vulture miller,
00:32:37and they notoriously
00:32:38greedy Harrison?
00:32:39Yes.
00:32:40It's them.
00:32:42These two are notoriously
00:32:43difficult to deal with
00:32:44on Wall Street.
00:32:45They don't play
00:32:46by any professional rules.
00:32:49What a coincidence.
00:32:51Back at the Vanderbilt Group,
00:32:52I almost drive
00:32:53those two into bankruptcy.
00:32:54They're my old rivals.
00:32:58Leave this project to me.
00:33:03Chairman, who is she?
00:33:05Isn't it too risky
00:33:06to hand over such a big project
00:33:07to a new face?
00:33:08Let me formally introduce
00:33:09to everyone.
00:33:10This is the company's
00:33:11newly assigned
00:33:12Executive Vice President
00:33:13and Chief Operating Officer,
00:33:15Ava.
00:33:16Hello, everyone.
00:33:17I'm Ava.
00:33:18Transfer all the core materials
00:33:19in our tumbles
00:33:20to President Ava.
00:33:21She has the highest
00:33:22decisioning authority
00:33:23for the coming negotiations.
00:33:25Understood.
00:33:28Ava, I've waited five years
00:33:30just to be able to stand
00:33:31at the pinnacle of Wall Street
00:33:32with you side by side.
00:33:34I firmly believe
00:33:35you will never let me down.
00:33:36Ava, she is a top-class
00:33:38hunter on Wall Street.
00:33:41I believe she won't miss.
00:33:42Charent, is she really capable?
00:33:44The other kind
00:33:45is notoriously stingy
00:33:46on Wall Street.
00:33:48This President Ava
00:33:49is a war goddess,
00:33:50the chairman personally
00:33:51snatched from the hands
00:33:52of New York's
00:33:52top financial magnets.
00:33:54On Wall Street,
00:33:55no one wants to face her
00:33:56at the negotiation table.
00:33:57Open your eyes wide
00:33:58and see clearly.
00:33:59This is the true king
00:34:00of top-tier Brezis negotiation.
00:34:10Miller Harrison,
00:34:11long time no see?
00:34:14Ava, what are you doing here?
00:34:16I'm now in charge
00:34:17of the acquisition
00:34:18for this Liberty
00:34:19financial project.
00:34:20I never imagined
00:34:21our opponent would be you.
00:34:23So what's the war
00:34:24left to discuss?
00:34:25We've experienced
00:34:26your methods firsthand.
00:34:27all those underhanded
00:34:29negotiation tactics
00:34:30are just a waste of time
00:34:31in front of you.
00:34:32Then sign.
00:34:34No problem.
00:34:35You are the guarantee
00:34:36of industry credibility.
00:34:37We can drive a hard bargain
00:34:39with rookies,
00:34:40but with you,
00:34:41we value long-term
00:34:42cooperation more.
00:34:43Smart.
00:34:44Liberty Financial
00:34:45will provide you
00:34:45with top-tier
00:34:46investment banking support
00:34:47in return.
00:34:49Am I seeing things?
00:34:50That tough nut
00:34:50we've been trying to crack
00:34:51for five years
00:34:52and she got it signed
00:34:53in less than five minutes?
00:34:54This isn't a negotiation.
00:34:55It's a one-hide-a-domination.
00:34:56Incredible.
00:34:57Is this Ava's true power?
00:34:59Simply amazing.
00:35:00Our company's
00:35:01about to take off.
00:35:02Senior,
00:35:02you're still the queen
00:35:03everyone looks up to.
00:35:04With you,
00:35:05Liberty Financial
00:35:06is about to experience
00:35:07a dream-like leap forward.
00:35:11Pleasure doing business.
00:35:15Pleasure doing business.
00:35:17Ava,
00:35:17Logan is truly insane
00:35:19to let go of a partner
00:35:20of your caliber.
00:35:21You flatter me, Miller.
00:35:23That's not just politeness.
00:35:25If we had known earlier
00:35:26that you were leaving
00:35:27that troublesome company,
00:35:28we would have offered
00:35:29double the equity
00:35:30to poach you.
00:35:32Since you both trust me so much,
00:35:33we'll be allies
00:35:34in Los Angeles from now on.
00:35:35It's a deal.
00:35:37See you again.
00:35:41Miss Ava,
00:35:42how on earth did you do it?
00:35:44They're known as
00:35:44the devil's representatives
00:35:46who never concede.
00:35:48The essence of business
00:35:49is the equivalent exchange
00:35:51of resources.
00:35:53As long as you see
00:35:54through the other party's weakness
00:35:56and offer a bargaining chip
00:35:57they can't refuse,
00:35:59success is a matter of course.
00:36:05As expected of my senior,
00:36:07with you on board,
00:36:08Liberty Financial
00:36:09is destined to shine
00:36:10on Wall Street.
00:36:11I'm honored to join
00:36:13the Liberty Financial team.
00:36:17The terms of this
00:36:19offshore funds
00:36:20betting agreement
00:36:20are overwhelmingly
00:36:21in our favor.
00:36:23Is it really reliable?
00:36:25Of course.
00:36:26This is a project
00:36:27personally recommended
00:36:28by my classmate
00:36:29from Cambridge.
00:36:30There's absolutely
00:36:30no problem.
00:36:31Elena,
00:36:32with you by my side,
00:36:33I'm like a like wings.
00:36:34Once we sign this project,
00:36:36the market value
00:36:37of Vanderbilt Group
00:36:38can double this quarter
00:36:39and those old board members
00:36:40will have nothing to say.
00:36:42Am I better than that Ava
00:36:44who all knows
00:36:44how to bury her head
00:36:45and work her?
00:36:46Her?
00:36:47She's not worth
00:36:48one ten thousandth of you.
00:36:49As long as I help Logan
00:36:50secure these few more
00:36:52big deals
00:36:52and completely win
00:36:53his father's approval,
00:36:54I'll be the true mistress
00:36:55of the Vanderbilt family.
00:36:58So,
00:36:59how does it feel
00:37:00to be back
00:37:00at our alma mater?
00:37:01Much more relaxing
00:37:02than the office buildings
00:37:03in Manhattan, right?
00:37:04I never thought
00:37:05we'd reunite
00:37:06under these circumstances.
00:37:08But Liam,
00:37:08our meeting again,
00:37:10it probably wasn't
00:37:11a coincidence, was it?
00:37:15Actually,
00:37:16I've been silently
00:37:17watching you
00:37:17all these years.
00:37:19It's just that
00:37:20you were too close
00:37:21to Logan
00:37:21and never had a chance
00:37:23to step in.
00:37:24To be honest,
00:37:25I fell for you
00:37:26at first sight.
00:37:27I watched you compete
00:37:28in speech contests
00:37:29and dominate in debates.
00:37:30After graduation,
00:37:32I wanted to invite you
00:37:32to start a business together,
00:37:34but then I heard you
00:37:34join Logan's family business
00:37:36to pay off your debt.
00:37:37From the day
00:37:37I entered Vanderbilt,
00:37:38I never planned
00:37:39to stay for a lifetime.
00:37:40I was just repaying a debt.
00:37:42Once it's paid off,
00:37:43it's time to leave.
00:37:44But I heard you
00:37:44were in a core position,
00:37:46holding all the lifelines
00:37:47of the company.
00:37:48How could that lunatic
00:37:49Logan bear to let you go?
00:37:50The world keeps turning
00:37:51without anyone.
00:37:52I'm not as indispensable
00:37:53as he thinks.
00:37:55I've done what needed
00:37:55to be done,
00:37:56repaid what needed
00:37:57to be repaid.
00:37:58We're even.
00:37:58I can disappear
00:37:59from his world
00:38:00with a clear conscience.
00:38:01Now that you've come
00:38:02to my side,
00:38:02I will never let go again.
00:38:06Chairman,
00:38:07something terrible
00:38:08has happened.
00:38:08Vice President Elena
00:38:09publicly fired
00:38:10our top salesperson,
00:38:11Carter,
00:38:12just because he was
00:38:12ten minutes late
00:38:13to the morning meeting.
00:38:14Carter was immediately
00:38:15poached by our
00:38:16arch-rival,
00:38:17Apex Capital.
00:38:18He took three of our
00:38:19core major clients
00:38:20with him.
00:38:22The company's losses
00:38:23are at least
00:38:24$200 million.
00:38:26Who gave her permission
00:38:27to touch Carter?
00:38:28He's the pillar
00:38:29of our company's
00:38:30performance.
00:38:35Chairman,
00:38:36it gets worse.
00:38:36We just wired
00:38:37the $50 million advance
00:38:39for that overseas project
00:38:40Elena signed off of
00:38:41and the recipient's account
00:38:41was instantly deactivated.
00:38:43We checked the FBI's
00:38:44blacklist.
00:38:45It's just a shell company
00:38:46for money laundering.
00:38:47We've been set up.
00:38:49What?
00:38:53Chairman,
00:38:54I personally
00:38:55half a month a month
00:38:56in Silicon Valley
00:38:57touched us
00:38:57as socials genius,
00:38:59Carter.
00:38:59With Ham on board,
00:39:01no one can touch
00:39:02Vanderbilt's
00:39:03and with North Mayer's
00:39:03share.
00:39:04This man's background
00:39:05is indeed
00:39:06clean and formidable.
00:39:08And these offshore
00:39:09projects,
00:39:10I've been tracking
00:39:10them for two years.
00:39:11I've personally done
00:39:13all the risk assessments.
00:39:14As long as I'm here,
00:39:15none of your decisions
00:39:16will go wrong.
00:39:18Chairman,
00:39:19Elena just signed
00:39:20two $10 billion
00:39:21hedge agreements
00:39:21with European investment
00:39:22banks in your name.
00:39:23But according to
00:39:24our emergency due diligence,
00:39:26both companies are backed
00:39:27by nothing but shells.
00:39:28The risk is off the circus.
00:39:29Chairman,
00:39:30you have to make a decision
00:39:31or the company
00:39:31will be hollowed out.
00:39:45in such a short time,
00:39:47I've used my university connections
00:39:49to secure so many major projects
00:39:52for Logan.
00:39:52He must be looking at me
00:39:54in a new light now,
00:39:56finally realizing
00:39:57who his true partner
00:39:59in battle is.
00:40:03Investigate.
00:40:04The overseas parent companies
00:40:06of these two projects
00:40:07have no operational qualifications
00:40:10at all.
00:40:11They're all shell companies
00:40:12for money laundering.
00:40:14Chairman,
00:40:15the finance department
00:40:16just followed
00:40:17Miss Elena's
00:40:18urgent instructions
00:40:18and has already transferred
00:40:20all the down payments.
00:40:22All transferred?
00:40:24$500 million?
00:40:26How on earth
00:40:27did Elena vet
00:40:28their qualifications?
00:40:29Is her brain
00:40:29filled with mush?
00:40:31With this level
00:40:32of incompetence,
00:40:33she's not even worth
00:40:34one ten-thousandth
00:40:35of Ava.
00:40:41All of you,
00:40:42get out!
00:40:48If Ava were here,
00:40:50such a low-level mistake
00:40:51would never have happened.
00:40:55If Ava were here,
00:40:56such a low-level mistake
00:40:58would never have happened.
00:40:59But why?
00:41:00Elena is clearly
00:41:01my first love.
00:41:02So why do I have
00:41:03such absurd thoughts?
00:41:04Elena just returned
00:41:05to the country.
00:41:06It's inevitable
00:41:07there are slip-ups
00:41:08in business.
00:41:09As long as I bring
00:41:10Ava back to assist her,
00:41:12the company will
00:41:12quickly get back on track.
00:41:17Sorry,
00:41:18the number you have dialed
00:41:19is not in service.
00:41:21Not in service?
00:41:23Ava,
00:41:23you've gone this far?
00:41:25You even cut off
00:41:26the last means of contact?
00:41:40Ava,
00:41:41Ava,
00:41:42open the door.
00:41:43I know you're in there.
00:41:44Don't play hide-and-souk
00:41:45with me.
00:41:55Ava?
00:41:56Ava?
00:41:59Ava?
00:42:01Ava?
00:42:02Ava?
00:42:02Ava?
00:42:05Ava?
00:42:06Ava?
00:42:10Ava?
00:42:11Ava?
00:42:11Ava?
00:42:11this is my final gift to you.
00:42:14Everything you casually
00:42:15handed down to me
00:42:16over the years
00:42:16is in this box.
00:42:18Ava?
00:42:19Ava?
00:42:21Ava?
00:42:22Ava?
00:42:23Ava?
00:42:24Ava?
00:42:24Ava?
00:42:26Ava?
00:42:28Ava?
00:42:30Ava?
00:42:36What does she mean by this?
00:42:38These were my rewards to her.
00:42:40She never used a single one?
00:42:46This Rolex was originally bought for Elena,
00:42:49but I remembered wrong.
00:42:52She doesn't like this kind of rugged strap.
00:42:54It's yours now.
00:42:55Take it and wear.
00:43:13The tag is still on.
00:43:15She never wore any of the clothes I bought for her.
00:43:23The tag is still on.
00:43:26She never wore any of the clothes I bought for her.
00:43:29Darling,
00:43:29does this limited edition Chanel
00:43:31suit your complexion?
00:43:33Honey,
00:43:34I've long outgrown that old-fashioned style.
00:43:36I have other brands I prefer.
00:43:38Gotta go.
00:43:39Wham?
00:43:47Elena doesn't like it.
00:43:49This trash is yours now.
00:43:51Throw it away or wear it yourself.
00:43:55These jewels,
00:43:56these clothes,
00:43:57she hasn't even touched them.
00:43:59Every single thing she left here
00:44:01is a slap in my face.
00:44:03She's telling me
00:44:04she never valued anything I gave her.
00:44:15Ava,
00:44:16what gives you the right
00:44:17to draw a line with me?
00:44:19Are you trying to tell me
00:44:20you've won with all this garbage?
00:44:26mobilise all our contacts,
00:44:29both legal and underworld.
00:44:30Seal off every exit port in New York.
00:44:33Track that woman down
00:44:34no matter where she's hiding.
00:44:36She doesn't even have the right
00:44:38to die without my permission.
00:44:41How dare she disappear?
00:44:44I'll make her regret ever being born.
00:44:51Ava,
00:44:52what gives you the right
00:44:53to draw a line with me?
00:44:54are you trying to tell me
00:44:56you've won with all this garbage?
00:45:03Ava,
00:45:04even though you've been driven
00:45:05out of New York,
00:45:06Logan's heart is still
00:45:07completely filled with you.
00:45:09No,
00:45:10you're just my replacement.
00:45:12Logan can only be my prey.
00:45:17I'm going to let the whole world know
00:45:19who the future master
00:45:20of the Vanderbilt family is.
00:45:22Ava,
00:45:23you'll forever be stuck
00:45:24in the gutter.
00:45:35Have you found her?
00:45:36Chairman,
00:45:36we've searched all the private clinics
00:45:38and apartments in Manhattan
00:45:39and Queens.
00:45:40There's absolutely no trace
00:45:41of Miss Ava.
00:45:45Damn it!
00:45:46Ava,
00:45:47where the hell are you hiding?
00:45:52Damn it!
00:45:53Ava,
00:45:54where the hell are you hiding?
00:45:55Where exactly are you planning to go?
00:45:57To a place where there's
00:45:58no more you and Elena.
00:45:59She paid off all her debts
00:46:01just to escape me completely.
00:46:02Ava,
00:46:03who gave you the nerve
00:46:04to vanish from my world?
00:46:08Buddy,
00:46:09you're way too low-key.
00:46:10You're about to get married
00:46:11and you didn't even
00:46:12invite us for a drink?
00:46:14Elena's the one with sense.
00:46:15The photos she posted
00:46:16have set all of Wall Street
00:46:17on fire.
00:46:18What wedding?
00:46:19What the hell are you talking about?
00:46:20Stop pretending.
00:46:21Check your social media feed.
00:46:22You guys are really going all out.
00:46:24Was that right after
00:46:25you got out of bed?
00:46:32Darling,
00:46:33why are you here so early?
00:46:35did you miss me?
00:46:39Delete that disgusting post
00:46:40right now, Elena.
00:46:41I brought you back
00:46:42to play the part
00:46:43of the perfect white moonlight
00:46:44not to scheme here.
00:46:47Elena,
00:46:48when did you become so scheming?
00:46:50Logan,
00:46:51I'm your fiance.
00:46:53Is posting an intimate photo of you
00:46:54some kind of capital crime?
00:46:56Phone,
00:46:57unlock it.
00:46:58If you want our relationship
00:47:00to end right here,
00:47:00you can keep holding on to it.
00:47:11From now on,
00:47:12you are not to post anything
00:47:12about my private life
00:47:13without permission.
00:47:15Elena,
00:47:15trying to force marriage
00:47:16with such a low-level technique
00:47:17is too childish.
00:47:18This is the first and last time.
00:47:20If it were Ava,
00:47:21she would never do something so stupid.
00:47:22She always knows
00:47:23where the line is.
00:47:24Logan!
00:47:25I did this because
00:47:26I love you too much.
00:47:28I'm scared every day.
00:47:30Scared you'll get tired of me.
00:47:32Scared you'll realize
00:47:33I'm not as capable as Ava.
00:47:35What I fear most
00:47:36is that Ava will come back
00:47:37and take you away from me.
00:47:41Please,
00:47:42don't do this.
00:47:44Logan,
00:47:44please don't go.
00:47:46I'll be good.
00:47:47I'll become the person
00:47:48you want me to be.
00:47:49I'm just so afraid
00:47:50of losing you.
00:47:51Afraid of losing?
00:47:53I admit
00:47:54I made the stupidest decision,
00:47:56but you're the only one
00:47:57in my heart.
00:47:58I really care about you
00:48:00too much.
00:48:02I didn't,
00:48:03Mr. Logan.
00:48:03Don't worry.
00:48:04I'll find one soon.
00:48:05Don't lie.
00:48:06Elena is starting to suspect us.
00:48:08I won't allow you
00:48:09to tarnish the pure love
00:48:10between her and me.
00:48:12I shared a bed with Ava
00:48:13for five whole years.
00:48:14I honestly thought
00:48:15she'd have some shred
00:48:15of attachment.
00:48:16But now,
00:48:17she managed to vanish
00:48:18into thin air
00:48:18without a second thought.
00:48:19Turns out,
00:48:20the one who truly cares
00:48:21never leaves.
00:48:22And the one who never
00:48:23really cared about me
00:48:24walks away
00:48:25with zero regrets.
00:48:35due to quality issues,
00:48:37the foundation
00:48:37has collapsed.
00:48:38The other party
00:48:39has officially filed
00:48:40a lawsuit
00:48:40with a federal court
00:48:41demanding that we pay
00:48:42one billion U.S. dollars.
00:48:45What did you say?
00:48:49Darling,
00:48:50look at this.
00:48:50I'm going to replace
00:48:52all those outdated suppliers
00:48:53Ava left behind.
00:48:57Why change them?
00:48:58Those companies
00:48:59have worked with us
00:49:00for ten years
00:49:01without a single mistake.
00:49:02Because they're too expensive.
00:49:04The batch I found
00:49:05is half the price.
00:49:07Oh!
00:49:07That woman,
00:49:08I treated her so well.
00:49:09And she betrayed me?
00:49:11You're the reliable one.
00:49:12Do worry.
00:49:13It's backed by a top-tier lab.
00:49:15Absolutely proof.
00:49:19This is a third-party
00:49:20men's yet report.
00:49:21This patch of gong
00:49:22is nothing but
00:49:23inferior recycled scrap,
00:49:25not even meeting
00:49:25half of the minimum
00:49:26safety standards.
00:49:28Vanderbilt Group
00:49:28is not only macing bankruptcy,
00:49:30we'll have to bear
00:49:31criminal-ci-ability.
00:49:32Can you tell me
00:49:33what's going on?
00:49:35Didn't you say
00:49:36it was backed
00:49:36by a top-tier lab?
00:49:40I...
00:49:41I was deceived
00:49:42by the mid-middle man.
00:49:44I didn't know.
00:49:51Elena, you're fired.
00:49:52Get out of here
00:49:53with your disgusting lies
00:49:54right now.
00:49:55I never want to lay
00:49:56eyes on you again.
00:49:57Logan?
00:49:59Logan?
00:49:59For that bitch?
00:50:01You actually hit me?
00:50:03You're firing me
00:50:05over this little money?
00:50:06Get out.
00:50:07Drag this trash
00:50:07out of here.
00:50:12Chairman,
00:50:13if we can't come up
00:50:14with a solution
00:50:14before the market
00:50:15opens tomorrow,
00:50:16Vanderbilt's stock
00:50:16will be wiped out instantly.
00:50:18We're going bankrupt.
00:50:19Bankrupt?
00:50:21Vanderbilt's
00:50:21century-old legacy
00:50:22is going to be
00:50:23destroyed by me?
00:50:24If Ava were here,
00:50:26none of this
00:50:26would have happened.
00:50:27It's all my fault.
00:50:28How could I have been
00:50:29so blind to let a fool
00:50:31like Elena
00:50:31take the vice-president's
00:50:32position?
00:50:33Chairman,
00:50:34I just received a tip.
00:50:36Miss Ava is now
00:50:36at Liberty Financial.
00:50:39What?
00:50:40How dare she go
00:50:41to that small-time company
00:50:42to become my competitor?
00:50:44Who gave her the audacity
00:50:46to betray me like this?
00:50:47Since you're not dead,
00:50:49you must come back
00:50:49and save my empire.
00:50:55Ava,
00:50:55I know your ambitions
00:50:56go far beyond this now.
00:50:57If we secure this deal,
00:50:59Liberty Financial
00:50:59would tear open a crack
00:51:00in the core
00:51:01North American market
00:51:02and soar to new heights.
00:51:03Chairman,
00:51:04I heard that for this
00:51:05Wansang International bid,
00:51:06the competitors
00:51:07are all established
00:51:08Wall Street financial giants
00:51:10and top-tier
00:51:10multinational corporations.
00:51:12She definitely can.
00:51:14In my dictionary,
00:51:16Ava is synonymous
00:51:16with miracle.
00:51:18You've never let me down before.
00:51:20This time will be
00:51:21your coronation once again.
00:51:24Ava is back!
00:51:35Liam, I'm sorry.
00:51:36It's okay.
00:51:37Even if we didn't sign this deal,
00:51:39it doesn't matter.
00:51:40As long as you come back safely,
00:51:42we have countless more opportunities.
00:51:48I said I'm sorry,
00:51:49because starting tomorrow,
00:51:50everyone might have to work overtime
00:51:51for a whole month.
00:51:52The contract,
00:51:52I got it.
00:51:59Sorry,
00:52:00I was just too excited.
00:52:01Oh my God,
00:52:02signing with Wansang International
00:52:03means our company's valuation
00:52:04will double tonight.
00:52:05It's a miracle.
00:52:06Truly the undisputed
00:52:07queen of negotiation
00:52:08on Wall Street.
00:52:09Don't you shower me
00:52:11with praise.
00:52:11This is the result
00:52:12of the whole team's
00:52:13overnight due diligence.
00:52:15Without your data support,
00:52:16I couldn't have signed
00:52:17a single word.
00:52:20Ava,
00:52:21I finally found you,
00:52:22you despicable traitor.
00:52:23Get over here right now.
00:52:28Ava,
00:52:29get over here
00:52:30right now.
00:52:31Chairman Logan,
00:52:32aren't you busy planning
00:52:33that multi-billion dollar
00:52:34wedding of the century
00:52:35for Elena?
00:52:36What brings you
00:52:37to a small company
00:52:38like mine
00:52:39to throw a tantrum?
00:52:40Who gave you permission
00:52:41to change your phone number?
00:52:42Did I ever allow you
00:52:43to disappear from my site?
00:52:45And did you get my permission
00:52:46to work for this rival company?
00:52:48Chairman Don,
00:52:49it seems your memory
00:52:49is failing you.
00:52:50I've already resigned
00:52:51from your company.
00:52:52Where I go,
00:52:53even if it's to work on Mars,
00:52:54has nothing to with you.
00:52:55Not even half a quent.
00:52:57Ava,
00:52:57I'm giving you
00:52:58one last chance.
00:52:59Get back to my company
00:53:00with me,
00:53:01now.
00:53:01Several major
00:53:02overseas short-sheeters
00:53:03are frankly attacking
00:53:04our stock price right now.
00:53:05You're the only one
00:53:06who can handle this mess.
00:53:08Sorry,
00:53:08but I'm now
00:53:08an executive partner
00:53:09at Liberty Financial.
00:53:11I have no obligation
00:53:12to help you patch up
00:53:13that dilapidated
00:53:13sinking boat anymore.
00:53:15Besides,
00:53:15don't you have your gun
00:53:16goddess Elena?
00:53:17Let her use her innocent face
00:53:18to get you through this crisis.
00:53:20Have you forgotten
00:53:20who helped you
00:53:21in the first place?
00:53:22If it weren't for me,
00:53:23you'd still be in the slums.
00:53:24It was me who put you
00:53:25in a top-tier vella,
00:53:26who brought you
00:53:26into the global
00:53:27financial circle.
00:53:28Listen,
00:53:28if you come with me now
00:53:29and help me solve
00:53:30this crisis,
00:53:31I can forgive
00:53:32your previous insolence
00:53:33and even reinstate you
00:53:35as vice president.
00:53:37Logan,
00:53:38I have no interest
00:53:39in that position anymore.
00:53:40I spent five years
00:53:41by your side
00:53:41as a substitute,
00:53:42handling countless
00:53:43shady bad debts for you
00:53:44and even took a bullet
00:53:45for Elena.
00:53:46The debts I owed
00:53:46have long been paid off.
00:53:48We are even now.
00:53:49Paid off?
00:53:50You can never repay
00:53:51what you owe me
00:53:51in this lifetime.
00:53:52Ava,
00:53:52as long as I haven't
00:53:53grown tired of you,
00:53:54you will always be
00:53:55my accessory.
00:53:56Come with me.
00:53:57Chairman Logan,
00:53:58this is Liberty Finance,
00:53:59not your backyard garden.
00:54:00Let her go.
00:54:01Who do you think you are,
00:54:02daring to cause problem
00:54:03at Liberty Finance
00:54:04and lay hands
00:54:05on our partner?
00:54:06I recognize him now.
00:54:07Hear this,
00:54:07the Vanderbilt T-twin
00:54:08famous dorned on Logan.
00:54:10I've heard he
00:54:10plants a Gensis
00:54:11by Nenea's fuel
00:54:13social Elena
00:54:14from Inagov,
00:54:14causing core projects
00:54:16to blow up
00:54:16one after other.
00:54:17Now Vanderbilt
00:54:18has decaying on a load
00:54:19on Wall Street
00:54:20and on the verge
00:54:20of punctuation.
00:54:21I heard Miss Ava
00:54:22poured her heart
00:54:22and soul
00:54:23into their company
00:54:23for five years
00:54:24and he actually
00:54:24kicked her out
00:54:25for a pretty face.
00:54:26Now that the company
00:54:26is in ruins,
00:54:27he remembers to come
00:54:28begging for our Miss Ava.
00:54:29Pure karma.
00:54:30He didn't recognize
00:54:30Ava's financial genius
00:54:32back then
00:54:32and now that he's
00:54:33going bankrupt.
00:54:34He thinks he can
00:54:34come crawling back?
00:54:35Dream on.
00:54:37Shut up.
00:54:39What do you
00:54:40bottom-feeding insects
00:54:41know?
00:54:41I'm Ava's benefactor.
00:54:42I was the one
00:54:43who pulled her
00:54:44out of the mud.
00:54:44Ava,
00:54:45you owe me a debt
00:54:46you can never repay
00:54:47in this lifetime.
00:54:48This is between us.
00:54:49Outsiders have no right
00:54:50to interfere.
00:54:51Come back with me
00:54:52to settle this debt.
00:54:52Logan,
00:54:53I'm telling you
00:54:54for the last time,
00:54:55there's no way
00:54:55I'm going back with you.
00:54:57From the second
00:54:57I walked out of that villa,
00:54:59that absurd five years
00:55:00between us
00:55:00was already completely dead.
00:55:02Ava,
00:55:03how dare you speak
00:55:04to me in that tone?
00:55:05Who gave you
00:55:06the nerve to defy me?
00:55:16You...
00:55:16How dare you hit me?
00:55:21Logan,
00:55:22it's true that you
00:55:23helped A financially
00:55:24in the beginning,
00:55:24and that was a kindness,
00:55:26but that doesn't mean
00:55:27she sold herself
00:55:27to you for life.
00:55:28This slap is payback
00:55:29for the humiliation
00:55:30and games you put her
00:55:31through over these
00:55:32five years.
00:55:33As long as I'm here,
00:55:34you don't have the right
00:55:35to lay a fend
00:55:36on her ever again.
00:55:38This slap
00:55:39is to reclaim
00:55:40the dignity
00:55:41Ava lost
00:55:42over these five years.
00:55:45Liam, you...
00:55:46Ava,
00:55:47today is a day
00:55:47for celebration.
00:55:48There's no need
00:55:49to these pasts
00:55:50that eating buried
00:55:51in the grave
00:55:51infect your mead.
00:55:52As the company's
00:55:53greatest contributor,
00:55:55I wonder if I have
00:55:56the honor of inviting
00:55:56you to dinner tonight.
00:55:58Wow,
00:55:58is Chairman Liam
00:55:59going to confess publicly?
00:56:01I heard Liam
00:56:01has had a crush
00:56:02on Miss Ava
00:56:03since their Yale
00:56:03University days.
00:56:04that look in his eyes
00:56:05is impossible to hide.
00:56:06The heir of a top-tar
00:56:08family dynasty
00:56:08paired with the
00:56:09Queen of Finance?
00:56:10Now that's a true
00:56:11power couple.
00:56:12Ava,
00:56:13I've reserved a table
00:56:14at the top-reloving
00:56:15restaurant tonight.
00:56:16Come with me.
00:56:19Ava,
00:56:19since when have you
00:56:20had the guts
00:56:21to refuse my invitation?
00:56:23I'm sorry, Liam.
00:56:24I can't have dinner
00:56:25with you.
00:56:26Why?
00:56:27I knew it.
00:56:28This woman
00:56:29was my shadow
00:56:30for five years.
00:56:31That ingrained
00:56:32sense of inferiority
00:56:33can't be changed.
00:56:34She simply doesn't
00:56:36dare to defy me.
00:56:39Because I promised
00:56:40to treat the entire
00:56:41company to a celebration
00:56:42party this afternoon.
00:56:44What?
00:56:45You'd rather spend time
00:56:47with these knollers
00:56:48than with me?
00:56:49Don't worry, Ava.
00:56:50I've already arranged
00:56:51the hotel suite
00:56:52and champagne for the staff.
00:56:53As for you,
00:56:54you're the brightest star
00:56:55tonight,
00:56:56and I must personally
00:56:57celebrate your success.
00:56:58All right,
00:56:59let's go then.
00:57:01Ava,
00:57:02I'm standing
00:57:03right in front of you,
00:57:04and you dare to go
00:57:05on a date with another
00:57:05man right in front of me?
00:57:06Do you even see me
00:57:07as your fiancé anymore?
00:57:09Logan,
00:57:09let me correct you
00:57:10on two points.
00:57:11First,
00:57:12your fiancé is named
00:57:13Elena,
00:57:13and I'm just
00:57:14your former executive.
00:57:15Second,
00:57:16I've settled
00:57:16all our old debts.
00:57:17There's nothing
00:57:18between us anymore.
00:57:19Ava,
00:57:20take one step
00:57:21and see what happens.
00:57:25Hey,
00:57:26this outdated chairman,
00:57:27you can't go over there.
00:57:28Our Ava is busy
00:57:29on a date
00:57:29with her true love.
00:57:30What are you trying to do?
00:57:31Want to be
00:57:32a thousand-watt light bulb?
00:57:40Ava,
00:57:40it prumens
00:57:41while the Pendwen
00:57:42has never be wrong.
00:57:43Since you took over,
00:57:44we've successfully acquired
00:57:46three core projects
00:57:47in a row.
00:57:48With this glass
00:57:49of top-screet
00:57:50Ace of Spains,
00:57:51I toast to the soul
00:57:53of our Liberty Financial.
00:57:55Liam,
00:57:56you're too kind.
00:57:57Without everyone's
00:57:58round-the-clock cooperation,
00:57:59I alone
00:58:00couldn't have pulled off
00:58:01an operation
00:58:01of this scale.
00:58:03Ava,
00:58:03to be honest,
00:58:04before you joined us,
00:58:05we were just burning
00:58:06through investors' money
00:58:07every day,
00:58:07almost hitting rock bottom.
00:58:09Yeah,
00:58:09if Ava hadn't joined
00:58:10and led us
00:58:10to this turnaround victory,
00:58:12this dinner tonight
00:58:12would probably be
00:58:13our farewell party.
00:58:14Don't talk nonsense.
00:58:15With Ava,
00:58:16our blueprint
00:58:17has just begun.
00:58:18To the future
00:58:19queen of Wall Street,
00:58:20bottoms up.
00:58:22Ava,
00:58:23haven't you noticed?
00:58:24You and our chairman,
00:58:25Liam,
00:58:25standing together
00:58:26are practically
00:58:27the textbook example
00:58:28of a top-tier
00:58:28Chibon couple.
00:58:30Exactly.
00:58:31Ever since Ava joined,
00:58:32I've never seen
00:58:33Chairman Liam sober.
00:58:34His eyes are always
00:58:35full of pink bubbles.
00:58:36Can't all this premium
00:58:37steak shut you up?
00:58:39We agreed tonight,
00:58:40no one leaves
00:58:42until we're drunk,
00:58:42and whoever leaves
00:58:43first pays the bill.
00:58:50Oh, Ava,
00:58:51I can't go on.
00:58:52I'm seeing double.
00:58:54Chairman Liam
00:58:55is in your capable hands now.
00:58:57Right, right,
00:58:57my mom told me
00:58:58to go home
00:58:58for a late-night snack.
00:58:59If I'm late,
00:59:00she'll confiscate
00:59:01my credit card.
00:59:02The sacred mission
00:59:02of Escort-a-Junt
00:59:03falls to you!
00:59:05Hey,
00:59:06you bunch of traitors.
00:59:18Take it easy.
00:59:20You really should
00:59:21lose some weight,
00:59:21big guy.
00:59:36This is...
00:59:37a photo of me
00:59:38from my university days?
00:59:41Damn it.
00:59:43I forgot to hide
00:59:43this incriminative evidence.
00:59:53Weren't you so drunk
00:59:54you could barely walk?
00:59:55I was a bit dizzy
00:59:56just now,
00:59:57but seeing this photo,
00:59:59I suddenly sobered up.
01:00:02How do you have
01:00:03a photo of me
01:00:03from my junior year?
01:00:05Back then,
01:00:05you were the star
01:00:06of the Yale football team,
01:00:07and I was just a part-time
01:00:08working student,
01:00:09practically invisible.
01:00:11Because long before
01:00:11that football game,
01:00:12I had already
01:00:13been watching you.
01:00:20too expensive.
01:00:22That's enough
01:00:22for two months
01:00:22of my living expenses.
01:00:26I knew your family
01:00:27had gone bankrupt,
01:00:28and you were burdened
01:00:29with huge student loans.
01:00:31You could only save
01:00:31every penny
01:00:32to buy those obscure
01:00:33professional books.
01:00:46back then,
01:00:47you only had eyes
01:00:48for Logan,
01:00:50the one
01:00:50who took you
01:00:51out of the slums.
01:00:52I was afraid
01:00:53of disturbing
01:00:54your happiness,
01:00:55so I could only
01:00:56hide my identity
01:00:57and silently help you
01:00:58in this clumsy way.
01:01:00After graduating
01:01:01from university,
01:01:02I knew you went
01:01:03to Logan's company
01:01:03out of gratitude.
01:01:04I watched you choose
01:01:06a path you didn't like,
01:01:07watched you step back
01:01:08for his ambitions
01:01:09and grow into the top elite
01:01:11step by step.
01:01:12No one knows how much
01:01:13you sacrificed,
01:01:14but I do.
01:01:16I know your heart
01:01:17was just broken
01:01:17by Logan,
01:01:18five years of youth
01:01:19traded for betrayal.
01:01:24I know you can't
01:01:25fall in love
01:01:26with someone else
01:01:26right away,
01:01:27but I'm willing
01:01:27to wait.
01:01:30As long as you can
01:01:31walk out of that darkness,
01:01:33even if you treat me
01:01:34as Tia for Logan,
01:01:35I'm willing.
01:01:36Liam,
01:01:38I'm sorry,
01:01:39I can't agree to that.
01:01:54I can't agree to your
01:01:55proposal just now.
01:01:58I was too impatient,
01:01:59Ava.
01:02:00If you feel pressured,
01:02:01we can just be
01:02:02business partners.
01:02:03Long as I can be
01:02:04by your side,
01:02:05I'm willing to do
01:02:05anything.
01:02:07I mean this shit.
01:02:08I don't need you
01:02:09to be anyone
01:02:09T-tight.
01:02:11Liam,
01:02:11you are you.
01:02:12The one and only
01:02:13bright spot in my life.
01:02:15I'm no longer
01:02:16that humble steeder.
01:02:17Start a day.
01:02:19We'll bunida
01:02:19forget someone
01:02:20to Kaishin Mushan.
01:02:22So,
01:02:23does that mean we...
01:02:26Of course.
01:02:28I've always known
01:02:29it was you
01:02:29who silently helped me,
01:02:31but at that age
01:02:32when I couldn't
01:02:32even hold on
01:02:33to my dignity,
01:02:34I couldn't give you
01:02:35any response,
01:02:36not until I walked
01:02:37into Liberty Financial.
01:02:40When met that boy
01:02:41whose eyes
01:02:41were full of
01:02:42my words again.
01:02:49I heard that you
01:02:50were at the
01:02:50Vanderbilt Group.
01:02:52You were known
01:02:52as Drink Thousand
01:02:53Bait One.
01:02:55Venture in a bomb
01:02:56Logan will cover
01:02:56that bet
01:02:57you dollar
01:02:57in a swinch,
01:02:58you down your
01:02:58health bot shots.
01:03:00If you drink
01:03:01these eight glasses
01:03:02today,
01:03:03this deal goes
01:03:03to Liberty Financial.
01:03:05Yeah,
01:03:05let us witness
01:03:06the drinking capacity
01:03:07of this financial queen.
01:03:10Black,
01:03:11if my partner
01:03:12needs to trade
01:03:13her life
01:03:13for a contract,
01:03:14then this deal
01:03:15isn't worth it.
01:03:16Ava,
01:03:16let's go.
01:03:22Liam,
01:03:22I'm willing
01:03:23to be your girlfriend.
01:03:24From now on,
01:03:25I will love you,
01:03:26cherish you,
01:03:27and protect you.
01:03:28Let's work hard
01:03:28together to build
01:03:29a real home
01:03:30that belongs to us
01:03:31in this cold city.
01:03:32Ava,
01:03:33you're not just
01:03:34saying that
01:03:34to make me happy?
01:03:35I choose to be
01:03:36with you
01:03:36for no complicated
01:03:37reason,
01:03:38simply because
01:03:40I've also been
01:03:41hopelessly in love
01:03:41with you
01:03:42for a long time.
01:03:43I'm so happy,
01:03:44Ava.
01:03:45I feel like
01:03:45all the sunlight
01:03:46in the world
01:03:47has brightened
01:03:47at this moment.
01:04:05See you tomorrow,
01:04:05Ava.
01:04:06Have a pleasant evening.
01:04:08See you tomorrow.
01:04:17Where are you going?
01:04:18Get in the car,
01:04:19I'll give you a ride.
01:04:20Logan,
01:04:20who exactly are you
01:04:22performing these
01:04:22childish tricks for?
01:04:24Ava,
01:04:25I didn't handle
01:04:26things properly
01:04:27back then.
01:04:28I shouldn't have
01:04:29let you take the fall
01:04:30for that damn charge
01:04:30to protect Elena's
01:04:31reputation,
01:04:32forcing you to resign
01:04:33and leave the company.
01:04:35The position of
01:04:35vice president
01:04:36at the Vanderbilt Group,
01:04:37I've kept it for you.
01:04:38The room that belongs
01:04:40to you at home,
01:04:40I've had it cleaned.
01:04:42Just say the word
01:04:43and you can come back
01:04:45anytime.
01:04:45We can start over.
01:04:48Logan,
01:04:49I'm curious.
01:04:50Who gave you
01:04:51the confidence
01:04:52to think that I would
01:04:53give up my position
01:04:53as a global partner
01:04:54at Liberty Financial
01:04:55to return to your
01:04:56nearly-brancropped
01:04:57Vanderbilt Group
01:04:58just to be a vice
01:04:59vectricer you can
01:05:00summon and dismiss
01:05:01at will?
01:05:04What are you talking
01:05:05about?
01:05:08And what makes you
01:05:09think that keeping
01:05:10that dark,
01:05:11damp,
01:05:11uninhabitable
01:05:12servants room
01:05:13in your house
01:05:13for me
01:05:14is some great favor?
01:05:18Logan,
01:05:19stop wasting
01:05:19your time on me.
01:05:20Your persistence
01:05:21only makes me
01:05:22think less of you.
01:05:25Ava,
01:05:27since you have
01:05:28no feelings for me,
01:05:29I've prepared
01:05:30a better gift for you.
01:05:32I'm sure you'll
01:05:33like it.
01:05:40This is the place.
01:05:42Who exactly
01:05:43is this mysterious
01:05:44investor?
01:05:49Miss Ava,
01:05:50I presume?
01:05:50This way, please.
01:05:51Your table is ready.
01:05:52Is there a proposal
01:05:53happening here today?
01:05:54Something like that.
01:05:55A gentleman is
01:05:56preparing the most
01:05:57romantic surprise for you.
01:05:58Miss Ava,
01:05:59please take a seat first.
01:06:06So it's Ava
01:06:07that Logan wants
01:06:07to confess to.
01:06:08I'll mix that
01:06:09disfigurating potent
01:06:10patient into the red wine.
01:06:11Ava,
01:06:12this is what you get
01:06:12for stealing my man.
01:06:14Ava,
01:06:15you've really
01:06:16come to your end.
01:06:21It's you!
01:06:35and you'll be the
01:06:36who wants to beg
01:06:37on his knees
01:06:37to cooperate.
01:06:38Ava,
01:06:38don't go.
01:06:39Give me five minutes.
01:06:39I said the wrong thing
01:06:40at the summit entrance to noon.
01:06:41That wasn't what I truly meant.
01:06:46Just say yes,
01:06:47and you'll be the
01:06:47Vanderbilt Group's
01:06:48sole representative
01:06:49in North America.
01:06:50The $50 million mansion
01:06:51in Manhattan,
01:06:52all the trust funds
01:06:53in my name,
01:06:54they'll all have
01:06:54your signature on them.
01:06:55Let's go back
01:06:56to how we were before.
01:06:57Back to when I only
01:06:58had you, okay?
01:07:00Ever since you left,
01:07:01everything has spiraled
01:07:02out of control for me.
01:07:04Why do those
01:07:05difficult shareholders
01:07:05and partners
01:07:06only recognize you?
01:07:08Ava,
01:07:08where are you?
01:07:09Only now do I realize
01:07:11that all my external success
01:07:12was because of you.
01:07:14It was only after
01:07:15the day you left me
01:07:16that I realized
01:07:17just how important
01:07:17you were to me.
01:07:18Ava,
01:07:19pour me a cup of coffee.
01:07:21I got used to
01:07:22working late nights
01:07:23with the coffee
01:07:23you brought me,
01:07:24used to you
01:07:25handling all my troubles.
01:07:26Without you,
01:07:27my world is just gray.
01:07:32Ava,
01:07:32I really can't live
01:07:33without you.
01:07:34For God's sake,
01:07:35come back to me.
01:07:36Logan,
01:07:37I've been by your side
01:07:37for so long.
01:07:38Have you ever respected me?
01:07:40Have you ever cared about me?
01:07:42I admit,
01:07:43I owe you a debt of gratitude.
01:07:44But these past five years,
01:07:46I've already repaid it.
01:07:47You don't need to put on
01:07:48this act of deep affection
01:07:49for the sake
01:07:50of your pathetic possessiveness.
01:07:51Don't be so distant
01:07:52with me, Ava.
01:07:54Let's start over,
01:07:55like before.
01:07:56Let me spoil you again, okay?
01:07:58Don't you think
01:07:58you look like a child right now?
01:08:00Ava, listen to me.
01:08:01I'm not angry
01:08:01that you left
01:08:02Vanderbilt five years ago, really.
01:08:03I just think
01:08:04those unpleasant things
01:08:05are in the past now.
01:08:06Since it's all in the past,
01:08:07Chapman Logan,
01:08:08there's no need
01:08:09to lower yourself
01:08:10by bringing up old debts.
01:08:11The current distance
01:08:12is good for both of us.
01:08:13I've already humbled myself
01:08:15and apologized to you.
01:08:16Isn't that enough for you?
01:08:17I don't need your apology
01:08:18and I have no interest
01:08:19to playing hard
01:08:20to get with you.
01:08:21You should be more worried
01:08:22about your white moonlight.
01:08:23Won't Elena go crazy
01:08:24if she finds out
01:08:25you came to see me
01:08:26so publicly today?
01:08:27Don't mention her.
01:08:28We,
01:08:29we've broken up.
01:08:32Ava, you bitch.
01:08:34If it weren't for you
01:08:34setting me up
01:08:35and making me lose
01:08:36my vice president position,
01:08:37if it weren't for you,
01:08:38I would have long secured
01:08:39my place as Mrs. Vanderbilt.
01:08:40Look at what
01:08:41I've been reduced to now.
01:08:42I will make you
01:08:43pay a hundredfold.
01:08:45I've broken up
01:08:46and gotten back together
01:08:47with her countless times
01:08:47this past year
01:08:48and I finally realized
01:08:49she's not the innocent girl
01:08:50I fell in love with
01:08:51at Yale back then.
01:08:52She's like a lunadeck.
01:08:53Every time I neglect her,
01:08:54she tries everything
01:08:54to hurt herself,
01:08:55even resorting
01:08:56to using her body.
01:08:57Such a cheap way
01:08:58to win me back.
01:08:59I'm really tired.
01:09:00Logan,
01:09:00I have zero interest
01:09:01in the low-level
01:09:02love-hate drama
01:09:03between you two.
01:09:04If you ask me out
01:09:05just to vent
01:09:05these emotional grievance,
01:09:06then I'm afraid
01:09:07I must excuse myself.
01:09:08Ava,
01:09:08stop acting like a child.
01:09:10Since we're both single,
01:09:11why don't we give
01:09:12a proper relationship
01:09:13a try?
01:09:13I only used to see her
01:09:14as a substitute,
01:09:15but if I really make her
01:09:17my official girlfriend,
01:09:18a queen of finance like her,
01:09:20she would be overwhelmed
01:09:20with gratitude
01:09:21and accept me.
01:09:23Give me a chance.
01:09:24Be my girlfriend.
01:09:26I'm sorry,
01:09:27Chairman Logan.
01:09:28I have a husband,
01:09:29and what he gives me
01:09:30is always the best.
01:09:32What?
01:09:33What did you say?
01:09:37Ava,
01:09:37this is impossible.
01:09:38All of New York knows
01:09:39you used to be madly
01:09:40in love with me.
01:09:41How could you possibly
01:09:42love someone else?
01:09:43This must be your way
01:09:43of getting back at me.
01:09:44The ring is fake?
01:09:45Your marriage is fake,
01:09:46right?
01:09:47Logan,
01:09:48your arrogance
01:09:48is as nauseating as ever.
01:09:51Put it there
01:09:51and get out,
01:09:52Ava.
01:09:52Don't think doing something
01:09:54will earn you my love.
01:09:55You're just a well-behaved
01:09:56bitch I keep,
01:09:57understand?
01:09:58So he always knew.
01:10:00He always knew
01:10:01how much the old Ava
01:10:02loved him,
01:10:02yet he took everything
01:10:03I gave for granted.
01:10:04Just because of that
01:10:05sponsorship back then,
01:10:06he treated me
01:10:07like a lowly slave,
01:10:08summoning and dismissed
01:10:09me at Willy.
01:10:13All right,
01:10:14I know you're still
01:10:14angry with me.
01:10:16Is it because I made
01:10:17you take the blame
01:10:17for Elena's mistake
01:10:18all those years ago?
01:10:20Or because I made you
01:10:21move out of the villa?
01:10:22I'm not angry with you.
01:10:23It's just that all of that
01:10:25is in the past now.
01:10:26Listen,
01:10:26you can drop the act
01:10:27with that so-called
01:10:28contract boyfriend.
01:10:29I've completely broken
01:10:30things off with Elena.
01:10:31My patience is limited,
01:10:32Ava.
01:10:32Stop making a scene.
01:10:34I can give you
01:10:34a proper title.
01:10:35We can officially
01:10:36be boyfriend and girlfriend.
01:10:37Breaking up?
01:10:38Logan,
01:10:39you wanna dump me
01:10:40for this bitch?
01:10:41If I can't have you,
01:10:43no one will.
01:10:44Logan,
01:10:45take back
01:10:46your cheap charity.
01:10:48I've already told you,
01:10:49I have a husband,
01:10:50and he's 10,000 times
01:10:52better than you.
01:10:53There will never be
01:10:54a place for you
01:10:55in my world again.
01:10:56Tomorrow,
01:10:57I'm leaving New York
01:10:58for Los Angeles.
01:11:00We won't be seeing
01:11:01each other again.
01:11:01leaving?
01:11:03You can't possibly
01:11:05refuse me.
01:11:06I know it.
01:11:07You must have found
01:11:08another so-called boyfriend
01:11:09to trick me again,
01:11:11just like before.
01:11:24It's you?
01:11:25Ava!
01:11:26You're still trying
01:11:27to seduce my husband?
01:11:28You vicious woman,
01:11:30won't you be satisfied
01:11:30until you've driven me
01:11:31to my death?
01:11:33Me seducing your husband?
01:11:35What a joke.
01:11:37Everyone,
01:11:37come and look at this bitch.
01:11:38She used to cling
01:11:39to me and my husband
01:11:40like a stubborn piece of gum
01:11:42that wouldn't come off.
01:11:43Later,
01:11:43to climb the ladder,
01:11:44she shamelessly became
01:11:45Logan's secret mistress
01:11:46for five years,
01:11:47stubbornly staying in the villa
01:11:49and refusing to leave
01:11:50no matter what.
01:11:50Now Logan and I
01:11:51are about to get married,
01:11:52and she actually comes back
01:11:54to harass us
01:11:55like a persistent,
01:11:56low-class woman.
01:11:57Do you have any shame left?
01:11:59She looks so well-dressed,
01:12:01actually professional
01:12:02homewrecker.
01:12:03You really see
01:12:04all kinds of people
01:12:05these days.
01:12:06Women who get ahead
01:12:07through improper means
01:12:08have hearts
01:12:08as black as can be.
01:12:09You all be the judge.
01:12:12It's this woman
01:12:13who stole my
01:12:14vice president position
01:12:16and took everything
01:12:17from me.
01:12:17Now that I'm down and out,
01:12:19she comes back
01:12:20flaunting her designer clothes?
01:12:22Ava,
01:12:22why don't you just die,
01:12:23you evil woman?
01:12:25Let him go.
01:12:38You,
01:12:39you bitch,
01:12:40how dare you hit me?
01:12:41Since you love
01:12:42smearing me with dirt so much,
01:12:43this slap is what you deserve.
01:12:46Say one more word,
01:12:47and I'll make you
01:12:48suffer a terrible death.
01:12:52Elena,
01:12:53I don't care what kind
01:12:54of dirty entanglement
01:12:55you still have with Logan.
01:12:57That's your business.
01:12:58Stay away from me
01:12:59from now on.
01:13:01Ava,
01:13:02since you've Aldi
01:13:03rolled out of New York
01:13:04and out of my sight,
01:13:05why do you have to come
01:13:06like a haunting ghost?
01:13:07Elena,
01:13:08don't assume everyone
01:13:09is like you,
01:13:10only capable of
01:13:10clinging to a man.
01:13:11Stop pretending.
01:13:13You came back
01:13:13because you still love Logan
01:13:15and can't let go
01:13:15of his power
01:13:16and influence, right?
01:13:17So now you want to come
01:13:18and humbly be
01:13:19his secret mistress again,
01:13:20just like before,
01:13:21don't you?
01:13:21I won't accept
01:13:22a single word
01:13:23of your slander.
01:13:24I'm here for work.
01:13:25I have my own family
01:13:26and life.
01:13:27As for you,
01:13:28Elena,
01:13:28that pure,
01:13:29selfless,
01:13:30and above-worldly
01:13:30desires white moonlight
01:13:31persona you've
01:13:32meticulously built
01:13:33it for five years
01:13:34has completely crumbled
01:13:35to dust in front of Logan.
01:13:37Since you messed
01:13:38it up yourself,
01:13:39you should figure out
01:13:40a way to beg
01:13:41for his forgiveness
01:13:42yourself.
01:13:44why come
01:13:44to take it out
01:13:45on an innocent me?
01:13:47I have no obligation
01:13:48to help a woman
01:13:49like you keep
01:13:49a man who's
01:13:50changed his heart.
01:13:53You bitch!
01:13:54Shut up!
01:14:03Logan,
01:14:04why are you
01:14:05so cold to me?
01:14:06You won't even
01:14:07answer my calls?
01:14:08Is it all
01:14:09because of this woman?
01:14:09It's Ava who ruined
01:14:11the future we were
01:14:12supposed to have,
01:14:12isn't it?
01:14:13Elena,
01:14:14wake up.
01:14:14Ava never clung to me.
01:14:16She even finds
01:14:17the thought of
01:14:17seeing me repulsive.
01:14:19Everyone listen up.
01:14:20Elena and I
01:14:21are completely over.
01:14:22So they broke up
01:14:23a long time ago?
01:14:24Then what's this woman
01:14:25doing here
01:14:26pretending to be
01:14:26the rightful wife?
01:14:27No.
01:14:29Impossible.
01:14:30Why?
01:14:31Logan,
01:14:31you loved me so much
01:14:32back at Yale.
01:14:33You were even willing
01:14:34to defy your entire
01:14:35family for me.
01:14:36Why don't you
01:14:36love me anymore?
01:14:37Back then,
01:14:38funding you?
01:14:39Even putting you
01:14:40in a high position
01:14:42perhaps is all
01:14:43because I'm too arrogant.
01:14:45Perhaps what I loved
01:14:46before was just
01:14:47an illusion.
01:14:48A shadow I thought
01:14:49was real.
01:14:51After leaving Ava
01:14:52during countless
01:14:53sleepless nights,
01:14:55I realized
01:14:56that if I truly love
01:14:57is actually...
01:15:00Logan,
01:15:00you can't leave.
01:15:01You can't just
01:15:02kick me out like this.
01:15:03Get out of my sight
01:15:04immediately.
01:15:04Otherwise,
01:15:05I won't mind
01:15:05making you disappear
01:15:06from all of New York.
01:15:07Security,
01:15:07drag this crazy woman out.
01:15:08No,
01:15:09Logan!
01:15:10Ava,
01:15:10you bitch!
01:15:10I won't let you
01:15:11get away with this!
01:15:12I am the only one
01:15:13fit to be Mrs. Vanderbilt!
01:15:14Ava,
01:15:16I'm sorry.
01:15:17Logan,
01:15:18we're even now.
01:15:18There's no one
01:15:19who owes anyone
01:15:20an apology.
01:15:20No, Ava.
01:15:22I want to tell you
01:15:23I love you.
01:15:25It wasn't until
01:15:26you disappeared
01:15:26from my sight
01:15:27that I realized
01:15:28you're the one
01:15:28I love most
01:15:29in this life.
01:15:30Really?
01:15:31Back then,
01:15:32you liked Elena.
01:15:33You always took
01:15:34my efforts for granted,
01:15:35treated me like your slave.
01:15:36It's only now,
01:15:37after you've been together
01:15:38and grown tired
01:15:39of her despicable tricks,
01:15:40that you remember
01:15:41my good points.
01:15:42That's not true.
01:15:43Ava,
01:15:43it wasn't until
01:15:44I officially dated her
01:15:45that I realized
01:15:45how good you are.
01:15:47I started thinking
01:15:48about you like crazy,
01:15:49remembering every late night
01:15:50you stayed up with me,
01:15:51remembering that only you
01:15:52understood my ambitions.
01:15:54I couldn't see my own heart
01:15:55clearly before.
01:15:56It wasn't until
01:15:56I lost you
01:15:57that I understood
01:15:58the one I truly love
01:15:59is you.
01:15:59Ava,
01:16:00let's start over.
01:16:01Give us a real try,
01:16:01okay?
01:16:03Logan,
01:16:04I'm telling you
01:16:04for the last time,
01:16:05I'm already married.
01:16:09Married?
01:16:10Ava,
01:16:10you must be lying to me.
01:16:12Just like when you
01:16:12found a fake boyfriend
01:16:13in college
01:16:14to make me jealous,
01:16:15right?
01:16:15You must still
01:16:16have feelings for me.
01:16:17Otherwise,
01:16:18why would you go
01:16:18through all this trouble
01:16:19to make up such
01:16:20an absurd lie
01:16:20to deceive me?
01:16:23Logan,
01:16:23if you lay another hand
01:16:25on my wife,
01:16:25don't blame me
01:16:26for being polite.
01:16:27Let me introduce you.
01:16:28This is my husband,
01:16:30Liam,
01:16:30the global chairman
01:16:31of Liberty Financial.
01:16:33Husband,
01:16:34Liam,
01:16:36this can't be.
01:16:37How could this happen?
01:16:39Honey,
01:16:39this is Mr. Logan,
01:16:40the benefactor I mentioned
01:16:41before who supported
01:16:42me at Yale University
01:16:43and also my former friend.
01:16:45Mr. Logan,
01:16:46I've heard so much about you.
01:16:47My wife mentions you often.
01:16:52Enough!
01:16:53Ava,
01:16:54you're quite the actress.
01:16:55To make me give up completely,
01:16:57you even hired a stand-in,
01:16:58didn't you?
01:16:59Stop lying to me!
01:17:00You can only marry me!
01:17:02How could you marry someone else?
01:17:03Logan,
01:17:04I really want to thank you
01:17:05for your past support of Ava.
01:17:06Without your generosity back then,
01:17:08I wouldn't have had the chance
01:17:09to meet such a perfect wife.
01:17:11If the Vanderbilt group
01:17:12ever needs anything
01:17:13from me in the future,
01:17:14I'll be your service
01:17:15as a way for my wife
01:17:17to repay your kindness.
01:17:18Logan,
01:17:19although I'm grateful
01:17:20for your support,
01:17:20it's really getting late.
01:17:22We have to catch our private jet
01:17:23back to Harbor City tomorrow,
01:17:24so we won't keep you any longer.
01:17:27Honey,
