00:02Claire Adams, who gave you the right to speak to my Nina like that?
00:06Dad, you hit me? Why would you do this to me? Why is all of this happening?
00:12Five years of marriage, and we're drynily going to have our own baby.
00:17When Julian comes back, I'll tell him the news myself.
00:22Julian, I decorated the hall myself. Do you like it? I have good news to tell you.
00:30Julian, why are you with her?
00:33Sister, don't be angry at Julian. It's my fault. I insisted on coming-
00:38You don't deserve to call me your sister. You're nothing but my father's in a lemmy noyer.
00:41When my mama was deletion, you weren't even quality to set joug this house.
00:48Claire Adams, who gave you the right to speak to my Nina like that?
00:51Dad, you hit me? Why would you do this to me? Why is all of this happening?
00:56We know you're pregnant. Nina has a heart condition and needs stem cell treatment.
01:00Get rid of the baby and use your stem cells to save her life.
01:03Julian, you're insane! You want me to kill our baby for her?
01:10Let me go!
01:13Julian! Please!
01:16Julian! This baby isn't just mine. It's yours too!
01:20Claire, I don't want Nina to wait too long. Don't make a scene.
01:23You want to kill my baby? And you say I'm making a scene?
01:26Nina is my first love and my one true love.
01:29If it weren't for getting my hands on the Adams family fortune, I would never have married you.
01:33This baby was never meant to exist.
01:35What did you say?
01:37Even though we're married, we've only known each other for a few months.
01:42I don't want to-
01:43It-it's alright. I'm willing to wait for you.
01:47I just want you to know that from the first moment I saw you, I was already lost.
01:53It's just my period. You didn't have to take time off work to take care of me.
01:57Don't be silly. I'm your husband. Who else is there to take care of you?
02:03I think... I'm falling in love with him.
02:06Claire, tomorrow is our fifth wedding anniversary.
02:10Marrying you is the happiest thing in my life.
02:16So for five years, you've been lying to me all along, you bastard!
02:22Darling, it's all my fault.
02:24If it weren't of me, sister wouldn't be so upset.
02:28I can't hurt sister and her baby.
02:31Just let me die.
02:33Poor Nina.
02:34You're always so considerate, but you never think of yourself.
02:37It's alright. You'll be saved soon.
02:39This is all your fault.
02:39If you hadn't taken Julian away, Nina wouldn't have followed with Simbing disease.
02:42After mom died, you were the one who agreed to the Brown family's marriage proposal without hesitation.
02:47You were the one who pushed Julian and me together.
02:49Why are you saying I took him away?
02:51Dad, I am your daughter!
02:53Nina is also my daughter.
02:54Now she needs you to save her life, so you will get on that operating table.
02:58You owe her this.
03:13Long time no see, Miss Adams.
03:15Oh, I'm sorry. You've taken over the Adams family business now, haven't you?
03:18My memory isn't what it used to be, you know?
03:20Age catches up with us all.
03:21You're out of prison.
03:22Thanks to you.
03:23With one report from you, I got twelve years.
03:25Twelve years, Miss.
03:26Do you know what that means?
03:27Prison was cold and dark. It wasn't easy.
03:29But whenever I felt like giving up, I thought of you out there, living the good life, and that gave
03:33me the strength to keep going.
03:35How strange fate is.
03:36Now you're the one lying on my operating table, just like those women you reported on.
03:41You're worse off than them.
03:42At least they came willingly.
03:44Dr. James, you're an old hand at abortions.
03:47We're counting on you.
03:48There will be plenty in it for you when this is done.
03:50Don't be angry with Dad.
03:51If we go to a major hospital, the news will get out.
03:54The company's stock has been volatile lately and can't stand such swings.
03:58We really have no other choice.
04:00Everyone has always said you were the sensible one.
04:02You understand why Dad has to do this, don't you?
04:05Nina, how much longer are you going to pretend?
04:07You don't have a heart problem at all.
04:08Sister, are you doubting the diagnosis I got from the hospital?
04:12That was a legitimate medical report.
04:13Sister, I know you hate me.
04:15But it's not like I got to choose which family I was born into.
04:18Can you please not be so mean to me?
04:21Last week, I went to Venice to see a client.
04:24You were dancing in a bar called Electric Rose.
04:28Do dare to let them pull the security footage.
04:32Sister, why are you making up lies about me?
04:36Nina, Nina, look at me.
04:37Breathe, breathe with me.
04:39I didn't, I really didn't.
04:41I know, I believe you.
04:43Can't you just leave her alone?
04:44What will it take for you to be satisfied?
04:46If anything happens to Nina, I will make you pay.
04:49That's enough.
04:50James, I need you to start the surgery immediately.
04:54James, back then, preparing illegal abortions
04:56and forcing young girls to sell their eggs
04:58were all be serious felonies.
05:00You should go know that if you back inside,
05:03the sentence won't be just 12 years.
05:05Do you want to die in prison?
05:07This 500,000 is what I promised you.
05:09After you finish, my people will wait for you at the airport
05:12and see you out of the country.
05:13No problem, sir.
05:14A minor procedure like this, half an hour at most.
05:18Julian, I'm begging you.
05:20Please spare this baby.
05:21He's a living person, too.
05:23You once touched my belly and said you would be a good father.
05:27Sister, thank you.
05:29Don't worry.
05:30I will live well.
05:34You've finally come around.
05:35This is better for everyone.
05:37It'll all be over soon.
05:39What are you laughing at?
05:41I didn't want to use this to threaten you.
05:43After before all this, you were the closest people to me in this world.
05:47Claire, stop making a scene.
05:48There's no audience here.
05:50Didn't any of you know?
05:51My mother left me a separate will.
05:54Nonsense!
05:56Stop stalling for time, Dr. James.
05:58Hurry up and-
05:5960% of Adam's group shares.
06:01She left them all to me.
06:02Either when I turn 27 or when I become pregnant,
06:05whichever condition is met first,
06:06the will takes effect immediately.
06:08Remember?
06:09I just turned 27 last week.
06:12The Adam's group is now mine to control.
06:14You're lying!
06:15I've seen Michelle as Will.
06:18The shares under her name were meant to be split between you and me.
06:22That was just to place-gate you.
06:24You were a live-in son-in-law in my family.
06:26You only got a foothold in the Adam's group because of my mother.
06:29And yet you had the nerve to cheat multiple times,
06:32raise an in-a-lived daughter,
06:33and use company money to support your mistress.
06:36You thought you hid it well?
06:37Well, my mother left all of the overseas assets to me alone as well.
06:40The day the will took effect,
06:42a team of lawyers from the Swiss bank came to see me.
06:45I've already signed.
06:49Claire, why didn't you say so sooner?
06:51If you had just explained everything to me,
06:53I would have protected you and the baby with my life.
06:56Julian, five years.
06:59Isn't the act over yet?
07:01I understand that you're angry,
07:03but everything I did was for the sake of your reputation.
07:06Right now.
07:07People outside are saying that you drove Nina into depression.
07:10If you refuse to give up this baby, save her.
07:12Everyone, though, would be pointing fingers at you behind your back.
07:15How will you ever hold on to your position as head of the family?
07:19Darling, don't let her fool you.
07:20The conditions for this will are too strange.
07:23Nothing in the world is that coincidence.
07:25She's just making up lies to protect her baby.
07:28Nina is right.
07:30And even if she does have 60% of the shares, so what?
07:33You're the one running every aspect of the company.
07:35Besides, with me holding down the fort,
07:37who would dare disobey us?
07:38She can't cause any real trouble.
07:40That's right, darling.
07:41Can you really bear to watch me die?
07:44My condition is really very critical.
07:48Why don't you take a look?
07:50After you see it, you'll know whether I was lying or not.
07:57She wasn't lying.
08:01Confirming that Benefiri Claire Adams has reached the age of 27,
08:05satisfying the will's active in addition.
08:08This can't be real.
08:10This can't be.
08:11James, I'm giving you a chance to redeem yourself.
08:14Call the police right now.
08:15Tell them that someone is illegally detaining a pregnant woman
08:18and forcing her to have an abortion.
08:20And you are a witness turning state's evidence,
08:22calling the police because your conscience got to you.
08:25Still thinking about that check?
08:27Don't dream.
08:28A guy like you is the perfect scapegoat in their plan.
08:31After they get what they want,
08:33you might not even make it out alive.
08:35Besides, I have far more power than they do now.
08:39Do you really think I would let you off?
08:43Don't you dare call the police!
08:45Get off me!
08:46If you want to die, don't drag me into it!
08:51That's right.
08:52Only if you die, can I get the company.
08:56Claire, trust Daddy.
08:58It'll be over soon.
09:00I'll make sure you leave without any pain.
09:10Aunt Frida.
09:12You're here.
09:14Claire, I'm sorry I'm late.
09:16Are you alright?
09:18I'm fine.
09:19I was just stalling for time.
09:22Otherwise, even if you came, it would have been too late.
09:25You scum.
09:27You must be tired of living.
09:29Frida?
09:29How did you get here?
09:30The person who knew you best was Madam.
09:32After Madam passed, you've been deliberately avoiding us old loyalers.
09:36But I've been watching you.
09:37We know everything you've done all these years.
09:38And we've been keeping an eye on Ms. Claire's movements the whole time.
09:41When she didn't show up at the company today, we immediately started investigating.
09:45And sure enough, we found out she never left the estate.
09:47You have no right to interfere in my family affairs.
09:50As chairman, I order you to get the hell out of here right now.
09:55Chairman, this is a copy of Madam's will, along with the removal agreement.
09:59It bears the signatures of the majority of the board members.
10:02Because you attempted to murder Claire Adams, company's largest shareholder.
10:06All of your positions, shares, benefits, and even your right to live the estate have been revoked.
10:21Even without all of this, you wouldn't have lasted much longer.
10:24You've caused so much damage to the company over the years.
10:26When I read Mother's will last week, I had already made plans for you.
10:29As long as you left the group, I was going to cover the funds you embezzled and give you a
10:32sum of money to ensure a comfortable retirement.
10:34But after everything that's happened, I'm not helping you anymore.
10:37All the money you embezzled from the company over the years, all the kickbacks you took from projects, I want
10:42it all back.
10:42Every last cent.
10:44Madam saw through your personality back then.
10:47Do you really think she wouldn't have anticipated that one day you'd turn on Miss Claire?
10:54And as for you and Nina Adams, do you think you could hide that from us?
10:58That's not true. Fine, yes.
11:01Nina and I have had a thing for years.
11:03But I never wanted to turn on Claire.
11:05I was just fooled by that woman.
11:07You think all we have is proof of your affair?
11:11Julian Brown, you used marriage to gain Claire's trust, intending to seize the Adams' assets.
11:16And we have Alden confirmed that for the five years you have been feeding intelligence to other groups and leaking
11:21a large amount of Compa Secrets.
11:23You will spend the rest of your life in prison, reflecting on your crimes.
11:26That's not true.
11:27I never meant to. I really didn't.
11:30Claire, I was wrong. Please forgive me.
11:32Forgive me. I just lost my head, but my love for you was real.
11:35You were in my heart.
11:35Was it the identity of the Adams' group heiress that was in your heart or my shares?
11:39No, that's not what you think.
11:41Enough, Julian. There's no need to keep acting. Put your ad away. I'm tired of watching it.
11:50Who gave you the authority to arrest me? I'm the chairman. I order you to let me go.
11:54Sister, sister, I was wrong. Can't you just let me off this once? I'm your own sister.
11:59Sister, how could you have me arrested?
12:01Claire, let's get you to the hospital for a checkup.
12:09The baby's heartbeat is steady and very strong. The baby is developing very well.
12:15My baby.
12:16Mommy finally protected you.
12:19Martin Adams, former chairman of the Adams' group, was officially arrested today by police on suspicion of embezzlement and intentional
12:24infliction of harm.
12:26Also arrested was his son-in-law, Julian Brown.
12:28According to sources close to the matter, Julian Brown has been having a long-term extramarital affair with Nina Adams,
12:33Martin Adams' illegitimate daughter.
12:34The two conspired to steal commercial secrets and assets from the Adams' group.
12:38As a result of this news, Adams' group stock opened at its daily limit down today, hitting an all-time
12:42low.
12:42The group has not yet issued an official response to these developments.
12:45What a mess. Not only is everyone's side saying the Adams family is finished, but even those old-timers in
12:50upper management are getting restless, trying to take control of the company.
12:53Aunt Frida, I have a way to save the company.
12:55But you've been through a terrible shock. Your body hasn't recovered yet. You can't overexert you.
12:59I can handle it. And this is something only I can do.
13:02All right, Claire. Whatever you want to do, I will support you.
13:05Aunt Frida, tell everyone I'm holding a press conference.
13:09Dear members of the press, dear shareholders, good morning.
13:12I am Claire Adams. I am aware that there are many speculations about the future of the Adams family.
13:16Please rest assured that those who have betrayed the Adams family and broken the law have received their just desserts.
13:21Starting today, I will officially assume the position of chairman of the Adams group.
13:24There is one thing I can make clear to you today.
13:26My mother, Michelle Adams, built this family's glory with her own hands.
13:30As her daughter, I am equally capable of leading the Adams family to new heights.
13:34Please stay tuned.
13:36Ms. Claire, what is your view on the current stock price trend?
13:38There are rumors of internal strife among senior executives. How do you respond to that?
13:40The traders you earlier, are they referring to your father, Martin Adams?
13:42Are they referring to your father?
13:44Claire, within minutes of your speech, the stock price has already stabilized.
13:47This is only the beginning. The truly difficult part is still ahead.
13:59The cases against Martin and Julian have been transferred to judicial proceedings.
14:03Martin has shifted all the blame onto Julian and Nina, claiming he knew nothing about any of it,
14:08and that Julian was pulling the strings behind everything.
14:11He certainly knows how to find himself scapegoats.
14:13But we have complete audio and video recordings.
14:16Every word he said was captured clearly.
14:18Martin won't escape the punishment he deserves.
14:20Go on.
14:21Julian sat in the interrogation room for four hours without saying a single word.
14:25But the people he conspired with have handed over all the evidence to save themselves.
14:29As for Nina, she keeps saying Julian tricked her and that she's also a victim.
14:32She even tried to use her heart condition to get out of trouble,
14:35but the hospital's medical report is already out.
14:37She's perfectly healthy.
14:39Nothing is wrong with her.
14:41I'm not surprised at all.
14:43Take me to see her.
14:44Claire, someone like that isn't worth you going to see in person.
14:48If you go, she'll only say even uglier things.
14:51There are some scores I need to settle with her face to face.
15:00Claire!
15:01You bitch!
15:02Don't you sit there acting all high and mighty?
15:05If it weren't for you, I would have been the one to marry Julian.
15:08Everything about the Addams family should have been mine.
15:11Nina, don't you understand by now?
15:12Do you really think Julian loves you?
15:14That woman Nina is such a fool.
15:16Does she really think she means anything to me?
15:18If it weren't for joining forces with Martin, I would never have used her as a pawn.
15:21Once I take everything the Addams family has, the first piece of crash I throw away will be her.
15:25No, that's impossible.
15:26He wouldn't do that to me.
15:28He wouldn't.
15:29Whether it's true or not, you know better than anyone.
15:31This recording is just the real him.
15:33You and I are no different in his eyes.
15:35Just stepping stones for him to climb higher.
15:37Your background already decided your fate from the start.
15:40He would never marry you.
15:41You never had a chance to win.
15:42I never wanted to compete with you over anything.
15:45The things Martin gave you, I could have turned a blind eye to.
15:47You were the one who shattered everything.
15:49You wanted Julian's love, and you wanted the Addams family's money.
15:53You thought you could hold everything in your hands.
15:54But in the end, you're the most pitiful one of all.
16:04Claire, how did it go?
16:06If she understands why I said what I said, she'll know what to do next.
16:13Claire, I never imagined that the trump card your mother left for you would be such a powerful one.
16:18I admit defeat.
16:19I'm convinced.
16:19So?
16:20You asked me here just to say that?
16:21No, I only want to ask you one thing.
16:23What?
16:24For five whole years.
16:25Did you ever, even for just a moment, truly love me?
16:28Even now, at this point, you still can't let go of this.
16:30Of course I loved.
16:31I truly loved the man who gave me all his tenderness and affection.
16:35But he is not the beast sitting across from me now, the one who would kill his own wife and
16:38child for money and power.
16:39You know?
16:40On our wedding anniversary, what I wanted to tell you wasn't just that I was pregnant.
16:43I had already made up my mind by then.
16:45After the baby was born, I was going to transfer 30% of my shares to you.
16:49You were the one who pushed this all off the edge.
16:51You destroyed my love, destroyed my family, and destroyed your own life.
16:57Time was up.
16:58Reflect on yourself well in there, Julian.
17:00That's the last piece of advice I can give you as your ex-wife.
17:13Baby, let's go home.
17:20I know what they're thinking.
17:21They think I'm just a poor, pitiful woman who was played by her father or husband.
17:25I won't last a few days.
17:28Miss Claire, the company isn't doing well right now.
17:30Since you've been through so much and you're pregnant, are you sure you can handle such a big burden?
17:35Perhaps we should appoint an interim manager first and let you take over after you've had some time to recover.
17:41David, last year's Eastern District project, you and your cousin Martin took an $8 million bribe from our competitor and
17:47deliberately loaded our group's bottom line.
17:48Am I wrong?
17:49You're slandering me.
17:51Robert, you worked with Julian to imbezzable company funds to cover your gambling debts.
17:55$4 million.
17:55I'm not wrong, Armit.
17:56Michael, the account's at the U.S. branch.
17:59You've been cooking the books for three years.
18:00James, kickbacks from the procurement department.
18:03You've taken no less than $2 million.
18:04And Charles, do I need to go into detail about what you've been doing with company money?
18:09You think just because I'm young, I'm easy to push around?
18:12Starting today, I am taking full control of the Adams group.
18:15Those who choose to stay, I'll pretend the past never happened.
18:18As for those who try to scheme behind my back, I wouldn't mind sending you in to keep Martin and
18:21the others company.
18:22You fired three.
18:24The rest have all fallen in line, scrambling to pledge their loyalty.
18:28Claire, you're becoming more and more like your mother.
18:31The urnal situation is stabilized.
18:34Now it's time to clean up the mess outside.
18:36Julian leaked our project proposal to our competitor.
18:39They're about to sign the contract using our proposal.
18:41Book me a flight for tonight.
18:43Even if you go now, it might be too late.
18:45And it's an 11-hour flight.
18:47Can your body handle it in your current condition?
18:49How will I know if I don't try?
18:54Miss Adams, our partner is already preparing to sign the contract.
18:58For you to come at this time,
18:59this is evidence that Julian leaked your corporation's project proposal.
19:03Your corporate trade secrets have been puddled around like commodities.
19:05Mrs. Weber, you wouldn't want to work with a company that steals proposals to win business, would you?
19:14This is our Adams Group's newly optimized proposal.
19:16It's better than the previous version, with lower costs and a shorter delivery timeline.
19:23This is our best offer.
19:24Miss Adams, I've heard some things about you.
19:27You're better than your husband.
19:29Far better.
19:30So, can we discuss signing the contract now?
19:34Pleasure doing business with you.
19:35Me too.
19:36All growth indicators are within the normal range.
19:39And the baby can already perceive the outside world.
19:42She is kicking me.
19:43That means this little one is full of energy.
19:45A healthy baby.
19:46All the indicators look good.
19:47Just keep up the current routine.
19:49Don't overwork yourself.
19:50Make sure you get proper nutrition.
19:51And come back for regular checkups.
19:53Claire, how did it go?
19:55The baby is very healthy.
19:57What about the court?
19:58The verdicts are in.
19:59Martin and Julian were both sentenced to 25 years.
20:03Nina, as an accessory, got 7 years.
20:05James got 14 years.
20:06They deserved it.
20:07There's one more thing.
20:08Nina seems to have developed some mental problems in prison.
20:11Mental problems?
20:11She mutters Julian's name every day, saying her husband is coming to rescue her.
20:15Sometimes she suddenly breaks down crying, saying she was wrong.
20:18Her cellmates avoid her.
20:19Julie, on the other hand, is very calm.
20:21But he writes you letters every day and sends them to the office.
20:24And?
20:24I threw them all away.
20:26Good work.
20:37Mother and baby are both doing well.
20:39You can go in and see them now.
20:42Claire, are you alright?
20:44I'm fine.
20:45Aunt Frida, look.
20:46My daughter.
20:46She looks just like you.
20:49And just like her grandmother.
20:52Have you decided on a name for the baby?
20:55Selena.
20:56Selena Michelle Adams.
20:59Madam would be so happy.
21:02Selena, mommy will protect you.
21:05You will be safe and happy for your whole life.
21:12Mommy, where does grandma live?
21:16Right there.
21:20Hello, grandma.
21:21Mommy and I came to see you.
21:23Don't worry, mom.
21:24The Adams family is doing well.
21:26Selena and I are doing very well, too.
21:29Everything is fine.
21:31Mommy, did grandma hear us?
21:33She heard.
21:35Grandma heard everything.
21:37Mommy, look.
21:38The sun is so beautiful today.
21:40Yes, sweetheart.
21:41The sun is beautiful.
21:43I have finally become the person mom wanted me to be.
21:46And I have become the person I wanted to be.
21:48Selena's and my new life has only just begun.
