00:00:03I got this. I belong here.
00:00:13How's everything? You got a plan?
00:00:14I'm in. Now I'll find Henry Vaughn and stop him.
00:00:17He's not getting his hands on our orphanage, our home.
00:00:24Now, what does he look like?
00:00:27Mr. Vaughn, it's such a pleasure.
00:00:31I'll be back shortly.
00:00:36I can't believe we're talking to Henry Vaughn.
00:00:40His first public appearance.
00:00:42No one has ever seen him before this.
00:00:44It screams headlines.
00:00:46We need something big.
00:00:53No sign of Henry Vaughn.
00:00:55Where is he?
00:00:56No sign of Henry Vaughn.
00:01:00Vaughn, what's happening?
00:01:02Probably just a glitch. Are you okay?
00:01:04My hair is stuck to your shirt.
00:01:06Can you please help?
00:01:07Close now.
00:01:08Ow, stop yanking!
00:01:10I'm not yanking. Be patient.
00:01:12Oh, please. Not so rough.
00:01:13Oh, please. Just be slow. Come on. Come on. Closer.
00:01:17Uh, hey. You may want to hear this.
00:01:22You're so slow. Come on.
00:01:24Be patient.
00:01:25Just take off your shirt!
00:01:26You're gonna go like...
00:01:27No!
00:01:28Ah, just take off your shirt!
00:01:30No! In an elevator? That's not happening.
00:01:33Oh, well, I'll just do it.
00:01:34Oh, no!
00:01:36I'm so sorry.
00:01:40You got my Mr. Vaughn! Get to pull your fabric!
00:01:42Is this some sort of indie elevator play?
00:01:44Is that how you get off your nerves for the end?
00:01:47Yes! How long have you been stuck to me as ever, Mr. Vaughn?
00:01:51Wait!
00:01:52Wait!
00:01:55Did you even see him?
00:01:57No, the things got complicated.
00:02:00Boss, I'll get to work right away.
00:02:02Oh, no, Miss Collins. Don't work so hard.
00:02:05You've been non-stop. You deserve a break.
00:02:08Am I getting fired?
00:02:10What? No!
00:02:12You don't need to keep hiding it anymore.
00:02:15You're Henry Vaughn's girlfriend, aren't you?
00:02:17What?
00:02:18See?
00:02:19That's all over the news.
00:02:23That's all over the news.
00:02:25Okay, that's a misunderstanding.
00:02:26Oh, come on.
00:02:27This photo, it's clearly you.
00:02:30It's totally her.
00:02:30It's totally her.
00:02:31Yes.
00:02:32It is me.
00:02:33I knew it!
00:02:34Only our Lila could lend someone like Vaughn.
00:02:38Guys, it's her.
00:02:41Hey, maybe it's for the best.
00:02:44How so?
00:02:45We'll have leverage to negotiate with Henry Vaughn.
00:02:47He literally just said no to my face.
00:02:50He's just an arrogant shithead.
00:02:51Okay, then.
00:02:53At least we can use it to our advantage and raise money for Starlight.
00:02:57What?
00:02:57Do you really think people will treat us differently?
00:03:00No.
00:03:00There is no way anyone would do that.
00:03:03Oh, I'll handle your assignments.
00:03:05Anything.
00:03:06For Mr. Vaughn's girlfriend.
00:03:08I'll get you coffee from now on.
00:03:10You can have half my project bonus.
00:03:12Lila, I'm promoting you to department manager.
00:03:16Effective.
00:03:16Immediately.
00:03:17Oh, yeah.
00:03:23I guess I'm his girlfriend.
00:03:27We'll launch an exclusive right away.
00:03:30Ten things you need to know about Henry Vaughn's sweetheart, Lila Collins.
00:03:34Wait.
00:03:35Right now?
00:03:36No, Linder.
00:03:37Hold on.
00:03:37No.
00:03:38Get the car ready.
00:03:39I'm going to settle this girlfriend nonsense.
00:03:46If I get the job, will it get to meet Henry Vaughn?
00:03:49Oh, my God.
00:03:50Oh, my God.
00:03:51He's such a dream.
00:03:53Next.
00:03:57What is this supposed to be?
00:03:59I think I'm way hotter than your boyfriend.
00:04:04Next.
00:04:07Next.
00:04:09Uh, can you introduce yourself?
00:04:13How about you introduce yourself?
00:04:15You know, I don't really dig the whole, like, single-sided interview thing.
00:04:20I think it's toxic.
00:04:21Great.
00:04:23Next.
00:04:26Miss Collins?
00:04:28You remember me?
00:04:29Uh, your voice sounds familiar?
00:04:33Yes.
00:04:33I think I've heard it somewhere before.
00:04:36Wait.
00:04:36I do know you.
00:04:40I do know you.
00:04:41Yeah.
00:04:42You look just like Robert Pattinson.
00:04:46Should I remind you what happened in the elevator a few days ago?
00:04:49Oh.
00:04:51Oh.
00:04:51You're one of those people obsessed with my relationship with Henry Vaughn.
00:04:55Fine.
00:04:56Fine.
00:04:56I'll give you what you came here for.
00:05:00Yes.
00:05:01Henry Vaughn is my boyfriend.
00:05:03In the elevator, he said he loved me.
00:05:05But guess what?
00:05:06I turned him down.
00:05:07He did?
00:05:07Yeah.
00:05:08Of course.
00:05:09He begged me to accept his love, saying he'd skip the press conference if I didn't.
00:05:14Wow.
00:05:15Really?
00:05:16Absolutely.
00:05:17You know, men, they're such simple creatures.
00:05:20I gave him one kiss, and then he completely lost it.
00:05:22He wanted to sleep with me, and then, well, I said no, of course.
00:05:26He was so heartbroken.
00:05:28He canceled the whole event.
00:05:30Can you imagine?
00:05:33I truly can.
00:05:34I mean, it's outrageous.
00:05:35Really.
00:05:36Oh, by the way, what's your name?
00:05:37I'm Henry.
00:05:38Oh, it doesn't matter.
00:05:39Forget it.
00:05:40You are hired.
00:05:41No, I don't want the job.
00:05:43I...
00:05:44I don't need...
00:05:48Mrs. Green's condition is getting worse?
00:05:52Mrs. Green's condition is getting worse?
00:05:56Yes, I'm on my way.
00:06:00Hey, newbie.
00:06:01You're coming with me.
00:06:06Your son is turning this family into a laughing stock.
00:06:11The deal was clear.
00:06:13Build the biggest shopping mall in the world, and then I'll make him air.
00:06:15Now, look.
00:06:16The project's been delayed, and he's been seen cozying up with the enemy.
00:06:19Some activist.
00:06:20It must be some misunderstanding.
00:06:22He's never let you down.
00:06:25Fix this.
00:06:25Or I'll replace him, and you'll be out after him.
00:06:31Control your son.
00:06:34He's your son too, you know.
00:06:37And I regret that every day.
00:06:48David?
00:06:50I need to know everything about Lila Collins.
00:06:59She's not recognized anyone since yesterday.
00:07:06Mrs. Green, do you know who I am?
00:07:10Mom?
00:07:13It's okay.
00:07:16It's okay.
00:07:20You're not my mom.
00:07:22No.
00:07:23But to me, you're just like a mother.
00:07:28And I'll save our home.
00:07:34Hey.
00:07:35Newbie.
00:07:37Thanks for today.
00:07:39Just give me a sec, I'll go solve the payment.
00:07:42So heartbreaking.
00:07:43Did you hear about Starlight Homes?
00:07:45Of course.
00:07:46It's getting demolished next month.
00:07:48Poor Lila.
00:07:49What's she going to do?
00:07:50Right?
00:07:50Mrs. Green only shows brief moments of clarity when she visits that place.
00:07:54Once it's gone, she might never remember anything again.
00:07:57Such a shame.
00:07:58She's been taking care of Mrs. Green for ten years.
00:08:01And just like that, it's all disappeared.
00:08:04And for what?
00:08:04Just another massive shopping mall?
00:08:06Just wiping it out like that?
00:08:24And this one, who's that for?
00:08:26This is for Sherry.
00:08:29She loves lavender.
00:08:32This one?
00:08:32What about this one?
00:08:34Lily.
00:08:34Of course.
00:08:36She just loves yellow.
00:08:38Uh.
00:08:59I'll see you next time.
00:09:01And the sweaters will be ready.
00:09:07She's really sweet.
00:09:08Thanks for coming with me today, newbie.
00:09:11I didn't really have a choice.
00:09:12You dragged me here.
00:09:14Wow.
00:09:15Still.
00:09:17Thanks for not leaving.
00:09:23So, uh, Mrs. Green's the reason you won't leave Starlight Homes.
00:09:27I mean, you saved up all that money and you still won't move?
00:09:30Well, I haven't saved enough yet.
00:09:33And I haven't figured out what to do with Mrs. Green.
00:09:37The Vaughn Enterprise gave me an ultimatum.
00:09:40I have to be out next month.
00:09:41So, I guess that's it.
00:09:45What are you gonna do?
00:09:46Whatever it takes.
00:09:47I'll sell everything I can if I have to.
00:09:49No matter what, I am protecting my home and my family.
00:09:54You said you were engaged with Henry Vaughn, right?
00:09:57I mean, he's rich enough to handle this without a second thought.
00:10:02Why didn't you ask him?
00:10:03You know why.
00:10:07It's a lie.
00:10:09You know why.
00:10:11It's a lie.
00:10:12Ready to tell the truth?
00:10:14Yes.
00:10:16The truth is...
00:10:21Henry Vaughn is a stingy bastard.
00:10:24What?
00:10:24He's just one of those rich kids.
00:10:26You know, he's selfish and cold and he's completely indifferent to someone like us.
00:10:33He would never help the orphanage.
00:10:36Are you sure about that?
00:10:38Yes.
00:10:39That's why I turned him down.
00:10:40But he's so obsessed with me, he wouldn't let me go.
00:10:45Wow.
00:10:47If it wasn't for him, I wouldn't have to sell this necklace.
00:10:53Mrs. Green gave it to me on my 18th birthday.
00:10:56It means a lot to you.
00:10:58Yes.
00:11:02But...
00:11:03Then so does Mrs. Green and Starlight Hopes.
00:11:07They were all I had growing up.
00:11:10I'll do anything I can to protect them.
00:11:13But that bastard Henry Vaughn, he better pray I don't catch him.
00:11:27Oh no. Mr. Vaughn!
00:11:29Wait.
00:11:30Did someone just say Mr. Vaughn?
00:11:45Wait.
00:11:46Did someone just say Mr. Vaughn?
00:11:49Wait.
00:11:51Did someone just say Mr. Vaughn?
00:12:05Noobie, what are you doing?
00:12:07I was just about to ask you the same thing.
00:12:13I'm so glued to your phone.
00:12:15You should be more careful.
00:12:18So, you were protecting me?
00:12:21Let's just say I didn't want my boss getting hurt on my first day.
00:12:24Huh.
00:12:26I knew it.
00:12:27You are the most responsible detail-oriented assistant ever.
00:12:32Stick with me.
00:12:33Make sure you get promoted.
00:12:36Wait.
00:12:37From now on, whatever I have I'll share it with you.
00:12:43I don't like chocolate.
00:12:46Nonsense.
00:12:48Everybody likes chocolate.
00:12:55in ourредités.
00:12:56Nonsense.
00:13:01You've come...
00:13:01Lila Collins.
00:13:04You've met before.
00:13:11Lila Collins.
00:13:14You've met before.
00:13:16Lila Collins.
00:13:22Not to be nosy, but you're not enough.
00:13:24You're really bad at this.
00:13:26It's none of your business.
00:13:29Who even are you?
00:13:31Same as everybody else here.
00:13:32I'm an orphan.
00:13:34They take kids your age?
00:13:35No, I've been here since I was two,
00:13:37but I guess I was never good enough to get adopted.
00:13:41Oh, sorry.
00:13:42No, don't be.
00:13:44This place is my home.
00:13:45I wouldn't trade it for anything.
00:13:47Oh, what about you?
00:13:48Why are you here?
00:13:50There's an event.
00:13:52Oh.
00:13:54You're with the Vaughan family.
00:13:58Volunteering, giving back to the community, right?
00:14:01Why'd you say it like that?
00:14:03You know why.
00:14:04Rich people don't do a charity
00:14:07unless PR and cameras are involved.
00:14:11But you seem different.
00:14:15A little plumsier, a bit less polished.
00:14:18You're not one of them, are you?
00:14:20Do I not look like one?
00:14:22No.
00:14:22You seem, I don't know, a little more human.
00:14:29Here, give me your hand.
00:14:32Come on.
00:14:36This is for you.
00:14:38I don't like chocolate.
00:14:41Nonsense.
00:14:42Everybody likes chocolate.
00:14:59You have let your father down.
00:15:02Let me guess, you're here about the rumor?
00:15:04You mean the scandal?
00:15:06Your father is furious.
00:15:08He's already talking about replacing you.
00:15:10Shocking.
00:15:11He's only been threatening that for the past 25 years.
00:15:13Henry, I didn't claw my way up the social ladder
00:15:16just to be thrown out of the Vaughan family.
00:15:19You've made that clear for the past 25 years as well.
00:15:22This isn't a joke.
00:15:23Did you forget how they treat us like trash?
00:15:26Just because I was his nurse when I gave birth to you.
00:15:30Henry, it's a misunderstanding.
00:15:35It doesn't concern you.
00:15:38Good.
00:15:39Then fix it.
00:15:41Get rid of her and Starlight Homes.
00:15:43The deal was clear.
00:15:46Build the biggest shopping mall in the world and you'll be heir.
00:15:50We've been outcasts for too long, Henry.
00:15:54But you are his son.
00:15:57Prove it.
00:16:20You're late.
00:16:21I need to talk to you.
00:16:22Wait.
00:16:22I have to tell you something first.
00:16:24Mr. Rivers is coming.
00:16:26He is a huge client and he's having a meeting with me here.
00:16:30Victor Rivers?
00:16:31Since when is he important?
00:16:33He's agreed to read my project proposal.
00:16:35Listen, I'm not playing this assistant game with you.
00:16:38Oh, okay.
00:16:38I get it.
00:16:38I know this job isn't ideal, but please just help me land this deal.
00:16:42Look.
00:16:44I can't save Starlight Homes, but if I get this money, I can help Mrs. Green move everybody
00:16:49out and you saw her.
00:16:50You know how much she needs this money.
00:16:53Please just help me land this deal.
00:16:59I have one condition.
00:17:01Condition?
00:17:02If you get the money, you leave Starlight Homes.
00:17:10Take the money, forget about the orphanage, just go somewhere else and start over.
00:17:16Why do you care?
00:17:18Lila Collins?
00:17:20Oh, Mr. Rivers.
00:17:22It is a pleasure to meet you.
00:17:26It's a pleasure.
00:17:37This is my assistant.
00:17:39I'm not your assistant.
00:17:40Sorry.
00:17:41He's a new hire.
00:17:42Has anyone ever told you you look like someone?
00:17:47Oh, yes.
00:17:49Vaughn.
00:17:53Oh, yes.
00:17:54It's Vaughn.
00:17:55Henry Vaughn.
00:17:56Pattinson?
00:17:58Lila said I look like him, but I think I'm better looking.
00:18:03Sorry.
00:18:04He's just joking.
00:18:06Please, take a seat.
00:18:14This is my project proposal.
00:18:16Please feel free to ask any questions.
00:18:18Oh, well.
00:18:21Ask your, um, Miss Collins, Henry Vaughn's girlfriend.
00:18:25I'll be straight forward.
00:18:26I was thinking of gifting him a Chopard watch.
00:18:31What do you think?
00:18:32Uh, a what watch?
00:18:35Sorry.
00:18:36Surely you've heard of a Chopard watch?
00:18:39Oh, I, I guess watches are just a bit impractical.
00:18:45I just tend to use this.
00:18:49Oh, you are quite funny.
00:18:52I never imagined Vaughn would go for someone from your background.
00:18:58What do you two even talk about?
00:19:00Well, you know, just life.
00:19:04Life.
00:19:05You call your cheap clothes and secondhand shoes life.
00:19:09You're from completely different worlds.
00:19:11Of course, maybe Vaughn finds your humor or your ignorance entertaining.
00:19:17Yeah, lucky me.
00:19:19But your private affairs with Vaughn are none of my concern.
00:19:23And as for your business proposal, I shan't be taking it forward.
00:19:26We only ever do business with people with class.
00:19:31Mr. Rivers, you haven't even looked at it yet.
00:19:33Please, please just give me a chance.
00:19:35Is this how you won over Henry Vaughn?
00:19:37By being desperate and clingy.
00:19:39But it won't work with me, Miss Collins.
00:19:41Don't come near me again.
00:19:42I'm allergic to poverty.
00:19:44No, please.
00:19:45You haven't even read it.
00:19:45Please, it's a good...
00:19:51Mr. Rivers.
00:19:53I'm warning you, Miss Collins.
00:19:54Don't play these little games with me.
00:19:56What games?
00:19:57I'm just asking for a chance.
00:19:59You've proved you don't belong in this circle.
00:20:01And I'm not interested in your proposal.
00:20:04What?
00:20:04All this humiliation just because I don't know the brand of a luxury watch?
00:20:08Well, let me explain it so that you'll understand.
00:20:11Simple examples for someone like you.
00:20:14Think of it this way.
00:20:15You need a ticket to board a train to enter the theater.
00:20:18And for certain business opportunities, you need a ticket, too.
00:20:23A ticket?
00:20:24Exactly.
00:20:26Watches, cars, wines, houses, luxury.
00:20:30These are the tickets of the elite.
00:20:32Do you understand now?
00:20:35What?
00:20:35So I don't even qualify to sit and discuss business with you?
00:20:38Well, you might think dating Henry Vaughn means that you have stepped into this circle.
00:20:43But believe me, you haven't.
00:20:44And honestly, I think he will tire of you soon enough.
00:20:48I'm quite sure.
00:20:49Mr. Rivers, you don't know anything about me.
00:20:51Oh, come on.
00:20:52I know enough.
00:20:54And if you ever want to talk business opportunities, maybe clean up your appearance first.
00:20:59Showing up in old polyester is most impolite.
00:21:03Leaving so soon, Mr. Rivers, we haven't finished our conversation yet.
00:21:11No, I'm done.
00:21:12Step aside.
00:21:13No.
00:21:14Sit back down.
00:21:18I'm just getting started.
00:21:22What are you trying to do?
00:21:25Assistant, I'm warning you.
00:21:26Or what?
00:21:27You'll take away my ticket, too?
00:21:29Charge me admission?
00:21:30Stay out of this.
00:21:31Apologize to her.
00:21:33What?
00:21:33The things you've said were beyond rude.
00:21:36Offer her an apology now.
00:21:38Why would I do that?
00:21:39No.
00:21:41Victor Rivers, as you cling onto your crumbling family empire, you have no right to criticize
00:21:48a hardworking, self-made businesswoman.
00:21:51Oh, do shut up.
00:21:52I'll sue you for slander.
00:21:54Go ahead.
00:21:55Sue.
00:21:56I'm sure the judge would love to hear what you've said today.
00:21:59I'm calling my lawyer right now.
00:22:01You're finished.
00:22:02Lawyers can be tough.
00:22:03You really should apologize to him.
00:22:08The Chopar 201.
00:22:09How much is that?
00:22:1125 million nowadays?
00:22:14How generous, Mr. Rivers.
00:22:16So?
00:22:17That's exactly my point.
00:22:19The price of nobility.
00:22:21And how much do you owe the bank?
00:22:26More than a few of those watches, right?
00:22:29I don't understand what you're talking about.
00:22:32What did you do it?
00:22:34A year ago, Henry Vaughn discovered corruption in your company and terminated all deals with
00:22:40you, leading to significant financial problems for your group.
00:22:45But yet, you need the banks to still believe that you're thriving, so you got super creative
00:22:49with the numbers, practically lying to them.
00:22:52Correct?
00:22:53That's nonsense.
00:22:55It's bullshit.
00:22:55The funny thing is, though, that it was corruption that led to the breakdown with Henry Vaughn.
00:23:01Wasn't it?
00:23:04But now you think a 201's just going to buy that all back?
00:23:07I mean, it's more like a one-way ticket to jail.
00:23:12I shall sue you.
00:23:13It's all a lie.
00:23:14Fine.
00:23:15Call it a lie.
00:23:16We'll verify that in court.
00:23:19Hey.
00:23:20Call your lawyer.
00:23:22Friendly advice?
00:23:23Your half-assed lawyer won't beat Barnes.
00:23:27I won't let this go.
00:23:29Your careers are over.
00:23:31Lila, I will end you.
00:23:33I doubt it.
00:23:34But please try.
00:23:37Keep me entertained.
00:23:43How would you know all of that?
00:23:47Who are you?
00:23:51Who are you?
00:23:53Listen, Lila.
00:23:55I'm actually...
00:23:57No.
00:23:57It doesn't matter anymore.
00:24:00We lost the deal.
00:24:01That's what matters.
00:24:04The deal?
00:24:06Victor wasn't here for your project.
00:24:08He was using you to get to Henry Vaughn.
00:24:10I know.
00:24:11But if there's even a sliver of a chance, I'll take it.
00:24:15You let him humiliate you like that?
00:24:17Look, you sound like you're from a good family.
00:24:20So here's the truth.
00:24:21The world isn't a fairytale.
00:24:24Yeah.
00:24:25He'll mock me.
00:24:26So what?
00:24:27If it helps the people I care about, then I will swallow it.
00:24:32Money isn't worth this.
00:24:34It is.
00:24:35And it protects the people that matter.
00:24:38I'm going to beg Victor.
00:24:39You can go home.
00:24:40You're still chasing him?
00:24:41Even after what he said?
00:24:43Yes.
00:24:44But you can go home.
00:24:46Don't worry.
00:24:46I'll make sure Linda pays you.
00:24:52And thank you for standing up for me today.
00:24:55It was very nice of you.
00:24:58It's just not what I need at the moment.
00:25:05Leave it.
00:25:07It's none of your business.
00:25:11Damn it.
00:25:15David, get SparkUp Magazine a sponsorship.
00:25:18SparkUp?
00:25:19Doesn't Lila Collins work there?
00:25:21Just give them the money and credit her.
00:25:24Get it done.
00:25:31This is a mess.
00:25:34But I can't watch her drown.
00:25:40Hey.
00:25:42You okay?
00:25:44Where's your hot assistant?
00:25:46Yes.
00:25:48Not the right one.
00:25:50Two days ago, you said he was the best assistant ever.
00:25:55And hello.
00:25:57He's a walking thirst trap.
00:26:01If you fired him, can I take him?
00:26:03No.
00:26:04I mean, stop joking.
00:26:07He's gone.
00:26:09Lila?
00:26:11What did you do?
00:26:13Linda, whatever it is, I promise I'll fix it.
00:26:16Fix it?
00:26:17You're a genius.
00:26:18How did you land such a big sponsor?
00:26:21Victor Rivers agreed to the project.
00:26:23Oh, forget Rivers.
00:26:24Vaughn's funding us.
00:26:26You really have Henry Vaughn wrapped around your little finger.
00:26:30Henry Vaughn?
00:26:34Sponsored us?
00:26:35They said they loved your project proposal.
00:26:38They read my project proposal?
00:26:40Yes.
00:26:41Lila, you're getting a raise.
00:26:43You and your assistant, whatever you two did, keep doing it.
00:26:49My assistant?
00:26:52Could it be...
00:26:54Henry?
00:26:58Henry Vaughn, why are you going?
00:27:09This is the address HR gave me.
00:27:13This can't be right.
00:27:17This is where he lives?
00:27:23Your father is losing patience.
00:27:26What's the delay with them all?
00:27:28Starlight Homes is already moving out.
00:27:31Just throw them out.
00:27:32The clock is ticking.
00:27:33There are still children in there.
00:27:36You want me to toss them out onto the street?
00:27:38Like we were tossed aside?
00:27:40Do you have any idea how serious this is?
00:27:44Without your father's support, we will lose everything.
00:27:48The project will finish on time.
00:27:50It's too late.
00:27:52Your little charity case with that girl is all over the news.
00:27:56I can't clean up your mess anymore.
00:27:59What are you talking about?
00:28:01I've spoken to the Browns.
00:28:05Helen's returning soon.
00:28:07You'll marry her.
00:28:08No.
00:28:09No, marriage wasn't part of the deal.
00:28:11Wake up, Henry.
00:28:13As the heir to Vaughn Enterprise, your marriage isn't a choice.
00:28:17It's a transaction.
00:28:20And it better be a good one.
00:28:26A contract marriage benefits no one?
00:28:30You're really willing to ruin two people without a second thought?
00:28:33Who has agreed to this, Henry?
00:28:35You better accept your fate.
00:28:37It's not up for discussion.
00:28:39And it's worth it?
00:28:40Just to keep your place in this family?
00:28:42I have scheduled an exclusive interview.
00:28:46In 30 minutes, you will be on live broadcast clarifying the scandal and announcing your engagement to Helen.
00:28:54You're in a real hurry, aren't you?
00:28:57When or without you, the announcement will take place.
00:29:00Now, if you show up, it's just an engagement.
00:29:03If you don't, I'll take actions against Starlight Holmes and Lila Collins.
00:29:08Is this a threat?
00:29:12You think I care about Lila Collins?
00:29:17I knew what happened with Victor Rivers, Henry.
00:29:22You're just not yourself when you were with her.
00:29:25If you can't clean up your mess, I will.
00:29:32Like always.
00:29:33I miss it.
00:30:16Where are you?
00:30:28Hey! Hey, stop!
00:30:44Whoa. That was close.
00:30:47Did she even realize how dangerous that was?
00:30:50Hi. Is there a Henry here?
00:30:55I really need to find my assistant. Does he live here or work here?
00:31:04What's going on? Do you know him or not? Did I get the wrong place?
00:31:09Hello? I know there is someone in there. Please, just open up. Please, I really need to...
00:31:26Henry.
00:31:32Henry.
00:31:35You're really here.
00:31:37What are you doing here?
00:31:38I got your address from HR. Wait, that's not important. Did you submit my proposal to Vaughn Enterprise?
00:31:46Oh, it was you! How do you know Vaughn Enterprise?
00:31:50So that's why you came? To investigate your sponsorship?
00:31:54Yes, I...
00:31:55Either way, we have nothing to do with each other anymore. You fired me. Remember?
00:32:02Well, look.
00:32:04I've got things to do. Let's not track this out.
00:32:08I came to say thank you.
00:32:11I was out of line last time. I know that.
00:32:14But you stood up for me against Victor Rivers and...
00:32:18Look, I wanted to shut him down, too, but...
00:32:23I've gotten so used to just...
00:32:25handling things on my own and swallowing my pride.
00:32:30But then you showed up.
00:32:34I don't know how to say this, but, uh...
00:32:39Thank you?
00:32:41Also, I hate owing people, and...
00:32:44And this will be nothing compared to what you did for me, but...
00:32:47I would...
00:32:48like to buy you dinner.
00:32:51As a proper thank you.
00:32:54So what do you say?
00:32:57Dinner?
00:33:03Viola Collins.
00:33:07You may be my greatest mistake.
00:33:14Okay, I did say I'd treat you, but...
00:33:19One meal here, I cost you more than my entire paycheck.
00:33:24You said I could pick the place.
00:33:25I did, but...
00:33:31Aren't you going to answer that?
00:33:35Doesn't matter.
00:33:38I've already made my decision.
00:33:40I don't know why, but...
00:33:42Do you see anything different?
00:33:44Like there is a side to you, I don't know.
00:33:46Breaking news.
00:33:47Laura Vaughan has just announced the engagement of Henry Vaughan and Helen Brown,
00:33:52heirs to two of the nation's largest enterprises.
00:33:54Mrs. Vaughan, your son was just involved in the scandal.
00:33:57How was he suddenly engaged?
00:33:58And how about his groom and girlfriend, Lila Collins?
00:34:00Is this a cover-up?
00:34:01I'll answer all your questions.
00:34:04I'll answer all your questions.
00:34:04First, regarding Miss Lila Collins.
00:34:07She has no romantic ties to my son.
00:34:10In fact, she is nothing but a liar, clinging to Henry in a desperate attempt for attention.
00:34:17I am formally announcing, Miss Lila Collins and Starlight Holmes will be facing legal action.
00:34:32You never actually engaged Henry Vaughan, were you?
00:34:36No.
00:34:37I admit it.
00:34:39But it was just a misunderstanding at first.
00:34:41I never meant for it to spiral like this.
00:34:45I needed a way to save Starlight Holmes and...
00:34:47And then one thing led to another and...
00:34:51Well, things got out of control.
00:34:54Laura Vaughan is suing you.
00:34:57She's labelled you as a liar, and soon the entire public will believe it.
00:35:03And if they think you could lie about an engagement, they believe you lie about anything, including
00:35:11Starlight Holmes.
00:35:12But that's the truth.
00:35:13It's not a lie.
00:35:14It doesn't matter.
00:35:15People believe what they want to believe.
00:35:18Why are you telling me this?
00:35:20Because I'm offering you an alternative.
00:35:23What kind of alternative?
00:35:25A real engagement.
00:35:29You turn the lie into the truth.
00:35:31What?
00:35:35How did they get here so fast?
00:35:37Because I invited them.
00:35:39You did what?
00:35:40The only way to kill a rumor is to start another one.
00:35:45What exactly are you planning?
00:35:48What exactly are you planning?
00:35:48What exactly are you planning?
00:35:48Did you really think an ordinary assistant would live in that house?
00:35:53No luxury brands by heart, and an inside knowledge of every industry?
00:36:01And although...
00:36:02What are you thinking?
00:36:04I told you I wasn't there for an interview.
00:36:08I was there for you.
00:36:12To meet someone who claimed to be...
00:36:16My fiancé.

00:45:43Lila, how does it feel dating the city's most eligible bachelor?
00:45:48Breathe. Ignore everything else.
00:45:50They're staring. Why are they staring? Is something wrong with my dress?
00:45:53You're my fiancée. No one will question you.

00:46:30You have been to Starlight Homes before.
00:46:32We must have met there.
00:46:34No.
00:46:36Trust me, if I'd met someone this loud before, I probably would have remembered.
00:46:40Uh, excuse me.
00:46:42If I'd met you before, I would have remembered too.
00:46:45Prick.
00:46:48Why?
00:46:48Why are you laughing?
00:46:50Why are you laughing?
00:47:06Well, if it isn't my former fiancée in this charity case.
00:47:14She's my guest tonight, Hedl.
00:47:15Oh, I'm joking.
00:47:18What, no warm welcome?
00:47:20We haven't seen each other for five years.
00:47:22We were never that close.
00:47:25Ouch.
00:47:26You've gotten meaner.
00:47:30Do you remember high school?
00:47:32Everyone used to call you the bastard son.
00:47:36I was the only one shutting them up.
00:47:37Thanks for reminding me.
00:47:38Don't get me wrong, I mean, your background's messy.
00:47:42But men like your father, they do have plenty of affairs.
00:47:45Your mother being a nurse is not exactly shocking.
00:47:55You didn't know.
00:47:57Henry wasn't even raised in the Vaughan mansion at first.
00:48:00There was a time that he was kicked out.
00:48:02That's enough, Helen.
00:48:06Why are you here?
00:48:09I'm just curious.
00:48:11I want to see what's really going on between you two lovebirds.
00:48:14And?
00:48:15What do you see?
00:48:16Exactly what I assumed.
00:48:19A fake engagement.
00:48:25You've had too much to drink, Helen.
00:48:28Honey, I haven't been started.
00:48:30But if you two want to continue your little pretend game,
00:48:33I'm happy to play along.
00:48:35We need to talk.
00:48:57You just left me standing there.
00:48:59What am I, a damn prop?
00:49:03She practically golded herself down.
00:49:08Aw, did I hurt your feelings?
00:49:12I'm just leaving.
00:49:14Wait.
00:49:16I like you, so I'm going to give you a little friendly warning.
00:49:20Stay away from him.
00:49:22He's mine.
00:49:26He's mine.
00:49:27Maybe you should tell him that.
00:49:29He's the one who called off your engagement.
00:49:31He said he was feeling trapped.
00:49:33Can you imagine?
00:49:35Someone like us feeling something like that?
00:49:38God thinks he's living an issues, fury, and tragedy.
00:49:40What exactly are you trying to say?
00:49:42That we understand each other.
00:49:46When Henry struggled to fit in, I was the one who helped him.
00:49:49I was the one who brought him into our own circle.
00:49:53Without me, he would be no more than an illegitimate shadow.
00:49:57Are you saying he needs you?
00:49:58No.
00:49:59I'm saying I made him.
00:50:01And now, just because of you, he's ready to throw it all away.
00:50:04That's not happening.
00:50:06Let me fill you in.
00:50:08Henry promised his father that the second Starlight Home would be gone.
00:50:12So would you.
00:50:13I don't care.
00:50:15Really?
00:50:18Why don't you hear for yourself?
00:50:26We used power and intimidation to force Starlight Homes out.
00:50:31This is the only way forward.
00:50:32I promise you.
00:50:34This mall, I'll see it done.
00:50:44You take the bedroom, I'll take the couch.
00:50:46Do we really need to live together?
00:50:48Why did you rent an apartment just for this?
00:50:52This may be a fake engagement, but it needs to be convincing.
00:50:57I want a place just for us.
00:51:00Go on and buy your guests.
00:51:03Right.
00:51:03You wouldn't want someone like me stepping foot in the Vaughn mansion.
00:51:07That's not what I meant.
00:51:09Myla, why do you always assume the worst?
00:51:15Get some rest.
00:51:24Why do rich people always put things so high?
00:51:28Try not to break it.
00:51:30It's expensive.
00:51:33I suppose that shelf would be a challenge for a short-legged corgi.
00:51:38I'm not.
00:51:40I'm not a corgi.
00:51:44Henry.
00:51:47Can I ask you something?
00:51:50And can you promise me you won't lie to me?
00:51:57Can you promise me you won't lie to me?
00:52:00Depends on what you ask.
00:52:04Right.
00:52:05Of course.
00:52:07You made this engagement deal.
00:52:10For Starlight Homes, right?
00:52:13A so-called win-win.
00:52:18Was it all just a new PR strategy for Vaughn Enterprise?
00:52:27Answer me.
00:52:29I already told you.
00:52:32You get what you want, and I get what I want.
00:52:35But what do you want, Henry?
00:52:37I don't get you.
00:52:39You could have thrown me out, but you didn't.
00:52:40You met Mrs. Green.
00:52:43You knew exactly what would break me, but you never, ever used it.
00:52:49You could have labeled me a liar.
00:52:52To paint me as the woman who came in between you and Helen.
00:52:57But you didn't.
00:53:00Why?
00:53:01Was it all just a way to make sure I willingly move Starlight Homes?
00:53:06To fake an engagement?
00:53:10Was it worth it?
00:53:12Henry Vaughn.
00:53:15Why are you helping me?
00:53:20I made my terms clear.
00:53:23You need to move Starlight Homes within a week.
00:53:25No, that's not an answer.
00:53:33All my life.
00:53:36I've been pretending to be someone I'm not.
00:53:42My mother went through hell because of where she came from.
00:53:47She always said she didn't want me to suffer like she did, so...
00:53:52I did what was expected.
00:53:54I pushed.
00:53:56I fought.
00:53:58I became the perfect heir.
00:54:03The one who deserved to lead the Vaughn family.
00:54:10But I'm not them.
00:54:13I never was.
00:54:15I know that.
00:54:20Everything you said, using Mrs. Green to threaten you, forcing you all out with that warning, I did consider it.
00:54:29I'm not a saint.
00:54:32The thought crossed my mind more than once.
00:54:37But you didn't.
00:54:41I don't want to talk about us like this, not while everything's still a mess.
00:54:46But what I said about you, that I admire your resilience, that you got to me, none of that was
00:54:59a lie.
00:55:04I...
00:55:05I...
00:55:05I...
00:55:06I...
00:55:06I think...
00:55:12I...
00:55:37I...
00:55:39I don't know.
00:56:15It's just a call to my fiancée.
00:56:17It's not too much.
00:56:19Right?
00:56:23Oh, you picked up.
00:56:33I figured you left early this morning,
00:56:37so I was just checking if everything's okay?
00:56:43Yeah.
00:56:44Oh, okay.
00:56:45Well, I'm just about to head out, so I...
00:56:46Lila, I'm really sorry, but can we talk later?
00:56:50Uh, yeah.
00:56:52Sure.
00:56:54Don't overthink it.
00:56:55My mother, she's in the hospital.
00:56:57What?
00:56:58What?
00:56:59What happened?
00:57:00Are you okay?
00:57:01I'm fine.
00:57:02Don't worry.
00:57:03I'll call you back soon, okay?
00:57:06Okay.
00:57:10What the hell happened?
00:57:21Lila, Mrs. Green is missing.
00:57:27What happened?
00:57:28Yesterday, someone came claiming that Starlight Homes was moving
00:57:31and that they wanted to take her on one last visit.
00:57:33We refused, but then last night, she was taken from a ward.
00:57:38How can that happen?
00:57:39I'm so sorry, Lila.
00:57:41All the security footage was erased.
00:57:44Who would want to discharge her early?
00:57:46He said he was here on behalf of your fiancé, Henry Vaughan.
00:57:51Miss Collins, a word, please.
00:57:54We need to talk.
00:57:57Do you work for Henry or Vaughan Enterprise?
00:58:00Does it matter?
00:58:01They're the same.
00:58:02Not to me.
00:58:03I see what he meant.
00:58:04You're special, but special is never what this family needs.
00:58:09What do you want from me?
00:58:10Easy.
00:58:11Walk away now, and we'll make sure Mrs. Green gets the care that she needs.
00:58:18If you had this much power, you could make me disappear without a second thought.
00:58:23Why bother making me a deal?
00:58:25Consider Henry's last kindness to you.
00:58:29This isn't Henry's idea.
00:58:31You can't fool me.
00:58:32Isn't it, though?
00:58:34Lila, you don't know him.
00:58:36No, I know enough.
00:58:39Then ask him.
00:58:41Go.
00:58:41Find him.
00:58:42Confront him.
00:58:44Right now, you don't see it.
00:58:47But he's a part of this family.
00:58:49He's a Vaughan.
00:58:51And there's nothing that you can do about it.
00:59:00This is Henry Vaughan.
00:59:02Leave a message, and I'll get back to you.
00:59:05It's fine.
00:59:07He's just busy.
00:59:14Henry.
00:59:22Henry.
00:59:26The number you have dialed is busy now.
00:59:29No.
00:59:31No.
00:59:33Henry Vaughan, was this all a game to you?
00:59:38Yes, Doctor, I want the transfer arranged as soon as possible.
00:59:42That's great.
00:59:44I'll coordinate with her guardian.
00:59:46Sir, Mrs. Green has gone missing.
00:59:50What?
00:59:50Someone has taken her from the hospital.
00:59:52Find out who?
00:59:53No need.
00:59:57I just saved your career.
00:59:58And secured your place within this family.
01:00:01You're welcome.
01:00:02What did you do?
01:00:03Well, you were gonna get rid of that girl eventually.
01:00:04I simply sped things up.
01:00:06You threatened her?
01:00:07Oh, don't be so dramatic.
01:00:09I arranged for Mrs. Green to receive top-tier medical care.
01:00:14And the only condition?
01:00:15Lila walks away from you.
01:00:21How long do you plan to control my life?
01:00:27Wake up, Henry.
01:00:29You were not just yourself.
01:00:31You were Richard Vaughan's son.
01:00:33My son.
01:00:34And the heir to this family.
01:00:36You still won't figure that out.
01:00:38Did I ever get a say in any of this?
01:00:44Get back here!
01:00:46Mrs. Vaughan!
01:00:47Mrs. Vaughan!
01:00:58You okay?
01:01:01What are you doing here?
01:01:02Well, considering it's my family's hospital, did you really think I wouldn't show?
01:01:08They said it was exhaustion.
01:01:12This isn't your fault.
01:01:14You've done everything that she's ever expected of you.
01:01:17Don't blame yourself.
01:01:19I'm not blaming myself.
01:01:22I just don't know when it became so hard to be around her.
01:01:28I checked with the doctors.
01:01:30They said that she'd wake soon.
01:01:35Everything's gonna be fine.
01:01:40And really, you couldn't have picked a better hospital.
01:01:48Speaking of what, should I have a little update on your fiancé's family situation?
01:01:53You mean Mrs. Green?
01:01:55J.H.U.'s doing a new study on VR-assisted memory recovery.
01:02:00They're willing to fast-track her treatment.
01:02:04That's great.
01:02:07Thank you, Ellen.
01:02:09No need to thank me.
01:02:11We're friends, aren't we?
01:02:19If you really want to thank me...
01:02:27See?
01:02:27Catching up with me isn't so bad, is it?
01:02:30Today hasn't been the worst.
01:02:31Today hasn't been the worst.
01:02:33You do remember that we're still friends, right?
01:02:36Even though our engagement's off.
01:02:39Now that we're on the topic of it, I do have to ask.
01:02:44Are you sure you don't want to marry me?
01:02:48A union between our families, we could withstand anything.
01:02:50Ellen.
01:02:51I'm serious about Lila.
01:02:55I haven't told her yet.
01:02:57But I love her.
01:03:02Wow.
01:03:06I don't think I've ever heard you use that word before.
01:03:09Neither have I.
01:03:12Until now.
01:03:24Come on.
01:03:26Just one meal?
01:03:28Can I have my friends' full attention for just once?
01:03:30No, just be one second.
01:03:32Just wait until I explain about Mrs. Green's treatment.
01:03:35Then you can give her all the details at once.
01:03:38Wouldn't that be better?
01:03:42Fine.
01:03:54So the study is still in early works.
01:03:57But if you want her to have a shot, then she should be transferred as soon as possible.
01:04:01I see.
01:04:02I'll talk to Lila.
01:04:04Thank you, Ellen.
01:04:11I like her.
01:04:12You know, she's, um...
01:04:15Different.
01:04:17Cute.
01:04:25I need to take this.
01:04:26Why don't we keep calling unless it's urgent?
01:04:28I just thought of something.
01:04:30How about we both go to the hospital together and we'll tell her the news in person?
01:04:41Helen.
01:04:43What are you doing?
01:04:45You've been trying to distract me since we sat down.
01:04:48What exactly are you planning?
01:04:52I don't know what you're talking about.
01:04:54You're stalling.
01:04:55Why?
01:04:56Anyway, I swear I...
01:04:57I'm warning you.
01:04:58Tell me now.
01:05:12What did you do to Lila?
01:05:13Nothing.
01:05:14You'd better be telling the truth.
01:05:21You never even saw me.
01:05:29I should never have trusted him.
01:05:36Don't go, Lila.
01:05:41Liar, don't touch me.
01:05:43Lila, I didn't lie to you.
01:05:45Go have dinner with your real fiancé.
01:05:47Goodbye.
01:05:48You saw us?
01:05:50Oh, so you're finally admitting it.
01:05:52Great, just fantastic.
01:05:55Mrs. Green is missing and you're out having some romantic meal with Helen.
01:05:59What did you just say? Mrs. Green is missing?
01:06:01Yes, genius.
01:06:02David had her taken.
01:06:03He said you ordered it, but I'm not stupid.
01:06:06I know that you would never do something so pointless.
01:06:08It's my mother.
01:06:09She must have planned this with Helen.
01:06:11No wonder she was pushing the treatment conversation.
01:06:13You know what?
01:06:14It doesn't matter anymore.
01:06:16If you want me gone, just say it.
01:06:18Okay?
01:06:19I will make it easy for you.
01:06:21You can have your happily ever after.
01:06:23My happily ever after is only with you.
01:06:28Just stop lying, please.
01:06:30You're using me.
01:06:31And you said you were at the hospital with Laura, but you weren't.
01:06:35And then you hung up on me and...
01:06:43Let go!
01:06:44Just listen to me.
01:06:46Please.
01:06:47Okay?
01:06:48My mother did collapse earlier.
01:06:51I took her to the hospital.
01:06:53She's stable now.
01:06:55Helen only showed up because it was her family's hospital.
01:06:59She came to find me.
01:07:00I didn't know anything about Mrs. Green being taken.
01:07:04Okay?
01:07:04I swear.
01:07:05I already suspected David was reporting my movements to my family, so I had someone tail him.
01:07:10You...
01:07:11You did?
01:07:12Yeah.
01:07:13We'll find Mrs. Green.
01:07:15Soon.
01:07:16I promise you, Lila, nobody is going to hurt your family.
01:07:20What about lunch?
01:07:23Helen told me about this new treatment.
01:07:26One that could help Mrs. Green recover her memory.
01:07:29I was relieved.
01:07:31Okay?
01:07:31That's all we talked about.
01:07:34She set me up.
01:07:36Lila.
01:07:37She knew you'd see us.
01:07:38She knew you'd call.
01:07:40And I'm betting she had David tip her off to your whereabouts just to make you doubt me.
01:07:45Lila.
01:07:47Can you forgive me?
01:07:53Now's not the time.
01:07:56You're right.
01:07:59When this is all over,
01:08:01we'll have plenty of time to talk about us.
01:08:09Come on.
01:08:11I know where Mrs. Green is.
01:08:13Let's go take her home.
01:08:23How...
01:08:24How did she get here?
01:08:26David moved her to a different hospital.
01:08:29But she must have found her way back here.
01:08:33He remembers this place?
01:08:35Yes, Lila.
01:08:37Maybe she remembers more than we think.
01:08:40And if we give her enough time,
01:08:42maybe she'll remember everything.
01:09:00You've come to tell me your decision, haven't you?
01:09:05You always said you know me.
01:09:08You should already know my decision.
01:09:10You're gonna ruin everything.
01:09:13No.
01:09:15Everything's saved.
01:09:16Because of her.
01:09:20And what about the mall project?
01:09:23Have you thought about that?
01:09:24We're still building the biggest shopping center in the world.
01:09:28But it will be unlike any other.
01:09:31There will be a park inside.
01:09:33And at its heart, the best orphanage in the world.
01:09:36You're keeping Starlight Homes?
01:09:39Because it belongs there.
01:09:41I'm not tearing it down.
01:09:43I'm making it better.
01:09:45We'll rebuild it into something brighter, something real.
01:09:49And what about your father?
01:09:52He won't stand for this.
01:09:54He wasn't happy at first.
01:09:55Then he saw the stock price.
01:09:59I used to think that love meant obeying you.
01:10:05Meeting every expectation you set.
01:10:09But love isn't about becoming what someone else wants you to be.
01:10:15It's about accepting who you really are.
01:10:19I hope that one day, you'll love me that way too.
01:10:53I've been thinking about why you feel so familiar.
01:11:01And?
01:11:03I used to hate it when the villains came to Starlight Homes.
01:11:06But one day, that changed.
01:11:09Why?
01:11:10Because I met a very handsome, very quiet, very kind boy.
01:11:21How handsome.
01:11:25I'm sorry it took me so long to recognize you.
01:11:30You're forgiven.
01:11:32I love you.
01:11:49That's all around me!
01:11:54I forgot!
01:12:01I didn't hear anything!
