00:05:58I didn't
00:05:59Still lying?
00:06:00I have all the proof
00:06:02You're just like your mother
00:06:04She got her own husband killed
00:06:06Then had the nerve to marry my dad
00:06:07You two are both disgusting
00:06:11Just you wait
00:06:13From today on, I'll destroy you
00:06:24What are you looking at?
00:06:28We're past that

00:06:33They say Liam's cold and paranoid

00:08:40Mia
00:08:41Mia, wake up
00:08:41I'm here
00:08:44What have you been through
00:08:45All these years I was gone
00:08:51No servants at all?
00:08:54Pumpkin porridge?
00:08:55Did Liam make this?
00:08:57How does he know I love pumpkin porridge?
00:09:00Liam, for this year's Rosa Redemption concept fashion note
00:09:02Same as before
00:09:03Five million dollars investment?
00:09:04Yes
00:09:05Roa has never shown her face internationally
00:09:07You funded her first show
00:09:08When she still refuses to publicly appear
00:09:10Are you still going to invest it?
00:09:18As long as she's happy
00:09:22What are you doing this early in the morning?
00:09:25Go upstairs and take off your clothes
00:09:27What?
00:09:33What are you doing?
00:09:36Open it
00:09:41You're not wearing anything underneath
00:09:44Close the door
00:09:50I meant for you to go outside and then close the door
00:09:55Sure you don't want my help?
00:09:58No
00:09:59Thank you
00:10:00After all these years together still shy
00:10:03Are you saying I haven't tried hard enough?
00:10:05If you're saying I really won't be able to take it
00:10:08Once we're married you can do whatever you want
00:10:10You want to marry me that badly?
00:10:12Of course
00:10:13Ethan
00:10:15So let's get married soon okay?
00:10:18We'll see
00:10:19Now change
00:10:26Sources confirm that international designer
00:10:28Rosa's sixth redemption themed fashion show will be held in Paris
00:10:32This Rosa who never shows her face in public is truly a rare talent in the design industry
00:10:36Parsons has reportedly extended offers to her multiple times
00:10:40A swift horse meets its wise rider
00:10:41Rosa's success wouldn't be possible without the mysterious support of investor
00:10:45No one knows who that investor really is
00:10:47You know an awful lot
00:10:49Could it be that you are
00:10:58Just a guess
00:11:02Mia come home for dinner
00:11:04Richard will be here tonight
00:11:06I see
00:11:08What is it?
00:11:09My mom asked me home for dinner
00:11:11Drive me
00:11:11My stepfather will be there we can talk about the wedding
00:11:15Using me as your driver now?

00:12:01I didn't even recognize you just now with your presence
00:12:03Smith you're getting on in years
00:12:04It's fine if your eyesight is bad but if your hands and feet don't listen you be careful more
00:12:08What are you doing here?
00:12:09Miss Anna has long ordered that you're not allowed to enter the Vance house
00:12:14Richard asked me to come back

00:12:25Seven years ago you knelt here and made a promise
00:12:28You've kept it
00:12:29I can trust you with the sterling group now
00:12:31You were reckless back then rushing back to the country over some woman
00:12:35I wrote it off as youthful foolishness
00:12:37But now you're still seeing her
00:12:39But you spied on me
00:12:41Do know why I arranged you're seeing her engagement to ethan so you would finally let her go
00:12:44She will be ethan's wife your sister-in-law nothing can happen between you two

00:12:50Liam you already have a fiancee the haze actress is the only one worthy of you
00:12:54She's the one you chose not the one I want

00:13:03Liam it's me something just happened at the safe house

00:13:08Do you even respect me at all?
00:13:12Father you seem to have forgotten something
00:13:14I haven't just been running finance all these years
00:13:17You ungrateful boy
00:13:19You really think hooking up with young master ethan sterling makes you untouchable?
00:13:23Who do you think you are?
00:13:26Do you even deserve to him?
00:13:28Cut the poor act
00:13:33I heard you were looking for me
00:13:41Young master sterling
00:13:42I thought you were

00:13:57So did you hit her face?
00:13:59Back master sterling miss anna said she's not allowed to enter the vance house
00:14:04I was just stopping her

00:14:21I'll have you back

00:14:40Young master sterling
00:14:41Although mia is already engaged to you but
00:14:44Do I need your permission to get married?
00:14:46Of course not
00:14:47Then mia come with me to get them
00:14:50Stay here and discuss the wedding with me
00:15:00Mom I'm sorry
00:15:04Just wait a little longer
00:15:12Still the same scent
00:15:13Mia do you know?
00:15:14You smell so good
00:15:17More perfect than your mother
00:15:19Richard the doctor said you're no longer capable
00:15:22Do you think everything will be different once you marry into the sterling family?
00:15:25Are you abandoning your mother?
00:15:27She's your only family in this world
00:15:29And as long as this scent remains I can find you anywhere in the world
00:15:35If you dare to hurt my mother
00:15:38I won't let you go
00:15:40The sterling family won't let you go either
00:15:52This look it's completely different from Ethan's
00:15:59City hall is closed today
00:16:00Then another day
00:16:03Could you please take me to the airport?
00:16:04I'm picking up a friend
00:16:07Okay
00:16:13Mia Clark you're not picking up a friend you're trying to leave New York aren't you?
00:16:16Asking me to take you home was to use my influence to get what you wanted
00:16:19You never thought about getting married did you?
00:16:22Ethan what are you talking about?
00:16:24Leave?
00:16:28Liam regarding Miss Clark's experiences over the past few years I found out
00:16:36If this place makes you unhappy don't come back
00:16:38With me here nothing will happen to your mother
00:16:42Thank you
00:16:45Liam this
00:16:46What if the second young master comes back?
00:16:48Do I need to explain to him?
00:16:50But you came back specially for Miss Mia and now you're letting her go
00:16:53Isn't this all in vain?
00:16:55Let her do whatever she wants I'll cover for her
00:16:57After dealing with that old man from the Vance family I'll go find her
00:17:00By the way
00:17:02I don't like that dog in the Vance house
00:17:05Understood I'll take care of it
00:17:17Miss Clark about the car accident that killed your father half a year ago
00:17:21Go on
00:17:22Your father's death wasn't an accident it was man-made
00:17:25The person responsible is most likely
00:17:30Miss Clark for flight UA46 your flight's about to take off please board immediately
00:17:34Miss Clark for flight UAA46
00:17:37Dad is that you?
00:17:39Are you telling me to stay?
00:17:42The airport isn't that big
00:17:44If she didn't board the plane where could she be?
00:17:47Are you all useless?
00:17:48Miss Clark for flight
00:18:18me. Can't kiss back so you scratch? Are you waiting for your Liam's message? Why
00:18:48hasn't Liam sent a single message these two days? A loose girl like her? You really trust
00:18:53her around your brother? No way. She's my fiancée. My brother wouldn't do that. Besides, he's
00:18:58the future head of the Sterling Group. If she dares to scheme, my father will never let her
00:19:01get away with it. Why did you come back? I want the Vance family to be destroyed. Help me.
00:19:16What makes you think I'll help you? Because you like me, Liam Sterling.
00:19:31Ow. Why did you bite me? You recognized me long ago, yet you kept pretending to be a naive
00:19:36little rabbit. Mia Clark, I can give you everything you want, as long as you stay by my side.
00:19:41What I want is love. Then I'll give it to you. Right now. That's not what I mean! To me,
00:19:49it's all the same. It is your phone. Liam, what are you doing? Where's Mia Clark? Just
00:20:09hasn't figured out it's you, right? Let's switch back in a few days. She hasn't. She's fine.
00:20:26Mia Clark, have you made up your mind? If you're with me, you can't cling to Ethan anymore.
00:20:34If I'm going to be a canary, shouldn't I pick the highest branch? Ethan, what's wrong?
00:20:47Was that really Mia Clark? Or did I imagine it? No way. My brother would never look at her.
00:20:55Did Mia Clark find out? I have to go back. Ethan! You don't want Ethan to find out yet?
00:21:11It's not the right time. Then what are we? Playing both sides.
00:21:21Life ain't that easy, but one thing I know for sure.
00:21:27Bold little bird. Mia, I will make you mine. Officially, as Mrs. Liam Sterling.
00:21:41Ethan. Liam, I'm back.
00:21:45We can switch back now. Came back overnight? Is Mia Clark here?
00:21:52She didn't go back to her apartment. I didn't feel comfortable staying at your place, so...
00:21:57I brought her here. So, what did you two do last night?
00:22:03Ethan, why are you up so early?
00:22:06Changed already? Are you going out? Huh, you two look really...
00:22:10Mia, this is got back. He's just my older from abroad. He's with the mafia. Don't mess with him.
00:22:14Liam. I'm Ethan's girlfriend.
00:22:24Mia, Liam is going to live here after returning to the country. Let's go up to the apartment tonight.
00:22:29All right. Liam, I'll take my leave first.
00:22:39Be good.
00:22:43Mia, how have I treated you these past few days?
00:22:48You've been really busy lately and haven't had much time to spend with me.
00:22:54Last night, you said you had a dinner party and you didn't come back at all.
00:22:59I'm sorry. I've been tied up with some things lately.
00:23:03It's okay. As long as I can buy your side, that's enough for me.
00:23:11All right. All right. I'll get it. I'll be right there. So annoying.
00:23:14I don't know what's wrong with those old guys at the company. They insist I come to a meeting right
00:23:18now.
00:23:18Mia, wait for me at home.
00:23:20All right. Go ahead.
00:23:27Ethan, did you forget something?
00:23:40Have you been waiting downstairs long?
00:23:43Mm-hmm. Any longer and I would have lost my mind.
00:23:49So you're the one who had him called away?
00:23:52Did I ruin your fun?
00:23:53You're jealous?
00:23:55Did he touch you?
00:23:57Guess.
00:23:59Not now. I have to get back to Vance's.
00:24:02What do you want me to do?
00:24:03After I leave the Vance house tonight, find out who my mom has been in contact with.
00:24:07Then take them down.
00:24:08Is it safe for you to go back alone?
00:24:10Don't worry.
00:24:14You actually dare to come back?
00:24:16Miss Anna is home and she's gonna make you pay for what happened last time.
00:24:20Move.
00:24:24Mia Clark, you've got some nerve.
00:24:26Did you take the documents and the acceptance letter?
00:24:29They're mine.
00:24:30Am I not allowed to take them?
00:24:34Mia, you start yelling the second you walk in?
00:24:38How rude. Apologize to Anna at once.
00:24:41You didn't even ask what happened before telling me to apologize?
00:24:46This is the Vance house. I've told you many times, no matter what, don't fight with Anna.
00:24:52Can't you ever remember? Hand over what Anna wants, now.
00:24:56You want this so you can take my place and marry into the Sterling family? Fine.
00:25:00Come and get it.
00:25:03Finally, you're being smart.
00:25:12Mia Clark, are you insane?
00:25:15How dare you? Mia Clark, you're so selfish. The Vance family raised you for nothing.
00:25:20Anna, you're obsessed with Ethan Sterling, aren't you?
00:25:23Too bad it'll never happen. The Sterlings would never want you.
00:25:29Here we go.
00:25:30What is all this noise?
00:25:34After all these years, you still haven't learned the rules of the Vance family.
00:25:39Come inside.
00:25:44Mom, does Richard never let you go in his study? Don't you want to know what secrets he's hiding in
00:25:49there?
00:25:50It's just where he does his work. There's nothing to hide.
00:25:55Yeah, you're probably right. Some things are better left unknown.
00:26:05Mia, the first time I saw you, I thought you were beautiful.
00:26:09Especially your eyes.
00:26:11They're nothing like your mother's.
00:26:16But you can't bear to look into my eyes. Because in them, all you see is how ugly and disgusting
00:26:21you are.
00:26:29Ambergris mixed with your scent is truly the most exquisite thing in the world.
00:26:36You deserve to die, Richard.
00:26:39I know you want to kill me. Otherwise, you wouldn't have latched onto that Sterling boy just to get away
00:26:45from me.
00:26:46Can we start? I'm in a hurry.
00:26:50Let's begin.
00:26:56A woman's will is a weed. It must be pulled before it blooms.
00:27:02A woman's worth is her purity. Lose it and you are nothing.
00:27:10Speak only when spoken to. A silent tongue keeps a safe house.
00:27:15Good. Not a single word wrong.
00:27:26If that's all, I'll take my leave.
00:27:35Stop right there!
00:27:40How long has this been going on?
00:27:42You actually care? You're blaming me? If you weren't for me, if you've even stepped foot into the Vance residence,
00:27:47to live this good life, to be their young lady, you've enjoyed over a decade of comfort and now you
00:27:52dare blame me!
00:27:53Did I ever want to live in Vance's house, or is it because you and Richard were already involved?
00:28:03And you even killed my dad for it.
00:28:26And you even killed my dad for it.
00:28:28I've respected you, respected you, respected you, because you're my mother, my only family in this world.
00:28:32But now I see you don't deserve any of it.
00:28:37Have you made up your mind?
00:28:38turning against your own mother.
00:28:48Something happened?
00:28:49Your mother hired people.
00:28:51She put a hit on you.
00:28:56I want to see them myself.
00:29:05Liam!
00:29:12Long time no see, Steven Yan.
00:29:15So you really were working for my mother.
00:29:17You had a hand in what happened back, didn't you?
00:29:20Miss, please spare me.
00:29:23I had no choice back then.
00:29:26My father trusted you.
00:29:28It was Madam.
00:29:29My daughter was sick.
00:29:31I needed the money.
00:29:32And you're still doing her dirty work now?
00:29:35She has proof of how I betrayed your father.
00:29:41Why did she kill my father?
00:29:43Just so she could marry Richard?
00:29:46On your 16th birthday, Sir went to buy your gift and came home early wanting to surprise you.
00:29:50But he caught the Madam with right away Richard.
00:29:52He lunged at him, ready to beat him.
00:29:57Keep talking.
00:30:02The Madam knelt down and begged your father to spare Richard.
00:30:05She said, she said you were still too young.
00:30:09Thinking of you, your father calmed down and decided to spend your birthday with you first.
00:30:21Dad, Mom, I wish you'd all be with me for every birthday from now on.
00:30:25Of course we'll be with you always.
00:30:32Then what?
00:30:34I was there that afternoon.
00:30:36The next day, the Madam held back my daughter's surgery fee and told me to cut the brake lines of
00:30:41the car your father used most often.
00:30:45But the accident report said it was an accident.
00:30:48That's Richard's doing.
00:30:51I only did what I was told to do earlier.
00:30:55You traded my father's life for your daughter, Stephen Yan.
00:30:59Have you slept soundly all these years?
00:31:01I'm sorry, miss.
00:31:03I'm so sorry.
00:31:05My daughter was dying back then.
00:31:07I...
00:31:08Take these men back to my mother.
00:31:10No matter what you say, tell her that Richard's had someone to give me the proof that she killed my
00:31:15father.
00:31:16Do you understand?
00:31:19I'll give you only one chance to atone for your sins.
00:31:26If you dare betray me, I'll make your entire family for my father's death.
00:31:42I'll give you only one chance to atone for your father's death.
00:31:43Check their backgrounds.
00:31:45Anyone who disobeezes will bear the consequences.
00:31:49We'll obey!
00:31:50We'll definitely obey!
00:32:01I want to go home.
00:32:03Okay, let's go home.
00:32:05You idiots!
00:32:07You can't even get her!
00:32:09Useless fools!
00:32:10Stephen Yan, think carefully before you speak.
00:32:13Was it really Richard who told her?
00:32:18Richard, you want to wash your hands of this?
00:32:20Turn my daughter against me, and then make her willing to...
00:32:24Dream on!
00:32:38Anna, you really didn't let me down.
00:32:44Where were you last night?
00:32:46Why didn't you come back?
00:32:49Last night, I...
00:32:50Ethan?
00:32:51Where did you throw my camozole?
00:32:56Mia, you...
00:32:58Why are you back?
00:33:02You...
00:33:03How could you be together?
00:33:06Since you've seen it, so what?
00:33:08What are you going to do about it?
00:33:10But...
00:33:12She's my sister.
00:33:13So what?
00:33:15When you hooked up with that old man, I didn't mind.
00:33:17Now it's just even, isn't it?
00:33:19Why does it have to be her?
00:33:22You know how she treats me.
00:33:23Are you done?
00:33:25Stop pretending to be such a good girl.
00:33:29Ethan...
00:33:30We're over.
00:33:31If you dare step out of this door today, don't regret it.
00:33:35Even if you get on your knees and beg me later, I won't take you back!
00:33:45I won't take you back.
00:33:46Mia, the position of Mrs. Sterling II must be mine.
00:33:58Now, can we go home?
00:34:02Move back so soon?
00:34:06Is that a problem?
00:34:08Of course not.
00:34:14Who told you to break up with her?
00:34:16Who gave you the guts?
00:34:17Dad, what else does she have besides being pretty?
00:34:18She's not even worthy of me.
00:34:20So what if we broke up?
00:34:21I'll just find a more obedience one.
00:34:23You fool.
00:34:24Go find Mia Clark right now.
00:34:26Get married and do it immediately.
00:34:27Fine, fine, fine.
00:34:30That old man is crazy.
00:34:31What's the big deal with the Vance family?
00:34:33Could it be he likes Mia Clark?
00:34:37Is Mia Clark here?
00:34:38Let me in.
00:34:39I need to find her.
00:34:40The young master ordered that no one is allowed in.
00:34:43Am I just anyone?
00:34:45Get out of my way.
00:34:55Mia Clark, stop messing around and come with me.
00:35:05Mia Clark, what the hell are you doing?
00:35:08How could you two hook up?
00:35:10Let me introduce you, Mia Clark, your sister-in-law.
00:35:14Liam, are you out of your mind?
00:35:17She's mine.
00:35:18She's mine.
00:35:18She's your sister-in-law now.
00:35:22No way.
00:35:24Let go.
00:35:25Mia's life is a mess.
00:35:27She hooked up with old men when she was a teenager.
00:35:29She's not good enough for you at all.
00:35:36First, she's your sister-in-law.
00:35:38Second, I don't care about her past.
00:35:40Do you understand?
00:35:42Liam, you actually hit me?
00:35:44Get out!
00:35:56I want to know, how long will it take for the leader of Sterling Group to take down the Vance
00:36:00family?
00:36:01How long do you want it to take?
00:36:03Five days.
00:36:05On Anna's birthday, I want to give her a surprise.
00:36:08All right.
00:36:11Liam, we've made arrangements with the high seas.
00:36:13We'll move as soon as the Vance Group's cargo ship arrive.
00:36:18Contact several authoritative overseas media.
00:36:20As soon as the Vance Group's cargo ship has an accident, escalate the public opinion immediately.
00:36:25Understood.
00:36:26Also handle those small overseas companies under the Vance Group.
00:36:29Yes, sir.
00:36:35Rosa, how's the design for the new collection coming along?
00:36:37I'll send the drawings to email in three days.
00:36:39By the way, has the organizer for this collaboration been sectioned?
00:36:41Not yet.
00:36:42Many top luxury brands have olive branches waiting for you to choose.
00:36:45Then choose Vance.
00:36:46The Vance family, they're not a top-tier wealthy family,
00:36:49but they're barely quiet for the collaboration.
00:36:51But can they pull off this event?
00:36:54If they can't, they'll naturally ask for help.
00:36:57I'll hang up now.
00:36:58We'll meet in person when you return to the country in a few days.
00:37:07Several overseas partners just pulled out on us one after another.
00:37:11How the hell are you running this company?
00:37:14What's going on?
00:37:16No matter what you do, find a way to get our losses back.
00:37:23Dad, what's wrong? Why are you so mad?
00:37:25Figures I don't have a son.
00:37:27All my people are useless.
00:37:30Dad, I actually have good news for you.
00:37:33What news?
00:37:34I locked in a runway show with the world-famous designer Rosa.
00:37:37It's her first show ever in New York.
00:37:39Everyone's going to be watching.
00:37:40And the Vance Group is going to rise right along with it.
00:37:44But the company's tight on cash right now.
00:37:47If this goes wrong...
00:37:48Dad, I already thought about that.
00:37:50I'm bringing in the Sterling Group as partners.
00:37:52Win-win. I highly doubt the Sterlings will say no.
00:37:54Good. You pull this off, and the Vance Group will be in good hands when I hand it over to
00:37:59you.
00:37:59You can count on it, Dad.
00:38:01Richard, you're planning to give the Vance Group to your daughter?
00:38:04You don't care about me at all.
00:38:06I've got something to take care of.
00:38:09You two keep talking.
00:38:18Go to the Bank of New York.
00:38:19Get the file folder I left in the safe years ago.
00:38:26Go to the Bank of New York.
00:38:26Mrs. Clark asked me to go to the Bank of New York to pick up a document.
00:38:29I just got it.
00:38:30There's a voice recorder inside.
00:38:31Ever since she found out Richard gave you the evidence, she's been suspicious of him.
00:38:36Get over here and bring the recorder.
00:38:38Swap it with what I give you, then hand the file to my mom.
00:38:40Got it.
00:38:45Liam, sir, I have a private interview for you.
00:38:53Liam, haven't you heard of Rosa during your years abroad?
00:38:57We just finalized a deal with her.
00:39:00Would you be interested in joining in?
00:39:02Bring her in.
00:39:05This way, please.
00:39:19Let's talk.
00:39:28Spit it out.
00:39:30When did you and Liam get together?
00:39:36When you went abroad with Anna.
00:39:38So you deliberately hooked up with brother just to get back at me?
00:39:43Why would you think that?
00:39:45Mia, I know you're mad about me and Liam switching identities.
00:39:48I know you're mad I got together with Anna.
00:39:50I was just foolish.
00:39:52Come back with me.
00:39:53Let's start over.
00:39:54What happened between you and Liam?
00:39:56I'll let it slide.
00:39:57No.
00:39:59I won't.
00:40:00Why?
00:40:01What makes you think I'd choose you?
00:40:03Your brother is the heir to the Sterling family.
00:40:05Being with him, I get so much more.
00:40:09You're with my brother just for money?
00:40:11Of course not.
00:40:12I want both money and status.
00:40:16Looks like I picked a bad time to come back.
00:40:21Hungry?
00:40:22I made dinner.
00:40:24Still here?
00:40:26Liam, don't say I didn't warn you.
00:40:28Even if she's not with me, she'll never be the wife of the Sterling family's leader.
00:40:35Also, I don't think she loves you.
00:40:42Hi.
00:41:00You're thinking about rekindling things with him?
00:41:02How could I?
00:41:04I know perfectly well which one of you is more powerful.
00:41:08Don't be jealous.
00:41:10He showed up uninvited.
00:41:13By the way, how did things go with the Vances?
00:41:16Starting tomorrow, Richard will have his hands full.
00:41:19Well then, ah!
00:41:23You started this fire.
00:41:24Now you have to put it out.
00:41:28A Vance Group cruise ship suffered spontaneous combustion while in transit on the high seas,
00:41:33causing the group's stock price to plummet sharply.
00:41:35Dad, what the hell is going on?
00:41:37Everything was fine yesterday.
00:41:40International waters.
00:41:42All cruise routes there are controlled by the Sterlings.
00:41:45You mean Mr. Liam targeted the Vances?
00:41:47That can't be.
00:41:48We just agreed to a partnership.
00:41:53Even Liam Sterling can be blinded by a woman.
00:41:57Going this far for some girl.
00:42:00But the head of the Sterling family won't let his son run wild like this.
00:42:04Ridiculous!
00:42:05Does he think this is his personal playground?
00:42:07He's completely out of line!
00:42:08Sir, Liam only planned to use public opinion to pressure Vance Stock.
00:42:12He won't take control herself.
00:42:14It will never affect the Sterling group.
00:42:16For a woman, he defies me again and again.
00:42:20When that woman's family had trouble, he ran back to the country.
00:42:23I sent over a dozen bodyguards and still could bring them back.
00:42:25This time, send more men.
00:42:27Keep them under control.
00:42:28I'll deal with that woman myself.
00:42:30Sir, but Liam...
00:42:34Dad, no need for all that trouble.
00:42:37The best way to fix things between her and my brother is for her to marry me.
00:42:47Miss Clark, our master would like to speak with you.
00:42:49I don't believe I'm acquainted with Mr. Sterling.
00:42:52At Mr. Clark's grave, the master is waiting for you.
00:42:54Please.
00:43:00You've been with me since we were kids.
00:43:04You should know I hate this kind of thing more than anything.
00:43:08I'm sorry, Liam.
00:43:09These are the master's orders.
00:43:11You're not to leave until the matter with Miss Clark is revolved.
00:43:20Miss Clark, your phone please.
00:43:34Miss Clark here in front.
00:43:35Where is she?
00:43:37Miss Clark.
00:43:37Miss Clark in front.
00:43:42Miss Clark in front.
00:43:52Miss Clark's grave.
00:43:53Of course.
00:43:53you may not get another chance.
00:44:04No one who leads the Sterling Group can defy me.
00:44:07For you to personally make a move,
00:44:08it seems he's really in love with me.
00:44:12He is.
00:44:13If he were just playing around,
00:44:15I wouldn't bother going to all this trouble.
00:44:17So you have two choices.
00:44:19If you refuse to let go,
00:44:21the plot next to your father's will be yours.
00:44:25What's the second choice?
00:44:30A Eng family cruise is waiting at the port.
00:44:33Ethan is there for you.
00:44:34Take this ticket.
00:44:36Live abroad with the second young master
00:44:38for the rest of your life,
00:44:39and never return.
00:44:42Whatever you want,
00:44:42the Sterling family will help you see it through.
00:44:48I choose a third option,
00:44:50and I'll avenge my father with my own hands.
00:44:54Get her.
00:45:00Young master, what brings you here?
00:45:19Liam!
00:45:25Liam?
00:45:26I'm sorry you got soaked.
00:45:29I'm sorry you got soaked.
00:45:31I'm sorry you got soaked.
00:45:33What are you all doing?
00:45:35Stop them!
00:45:37If you dare take her with you today,
00:45:39I disown you.
00:45:41The Sterling family can survive without me.
00:45:44But can the Sterling group survive without me?
00:45:49Father,
00:45:51I'm the heir you raise single-handedly.
00:46:06His fiancée,
00:46:08the Hays heiress,
00:46:09is returning to the country soon.
00:46:13Let's see how long he can protect that woman.
00:46:21Liam,
00:46:22the second young master
00:46:24is asking to see you downstairs.
00:46:36What do you want?
00:46:38What happened today was my idea.
00:46:43She was with me for years.
00:46:45Do you really believe she could just fall out of love and into you?
00:46:49She's only acting out.
00:46:50Angry about me and Anna.
00:46:52She hates me, Liam,
00:46:53but hate doesn't exist without love.
00:46:54We look the same.
00:46:56Even if she's attached to you,
00:46:58she's just using you as my replacement.
00:47:02Let her go,
00:47:03and she'll come back to me.
00:47:08I've run the Sterling group for years.
00:47:10You're nothing but a useless leech.
00:47:13These cheap lines won't work on me.
00:47:16If you don't believe me,
00:47:18let's put it to the test.
00:47:20I'll meet her tomorrow night.
00:47:22You can come see for yourself who she picks.
00:47:29You got caught in the rain yesterday.
00:47:31Why not sleep a little longer?
00:47:32I have something to take care of.
00:47:33I'm heading out.
00:47:34I'll drive you.
00:47:35No need.
00:47:35I can go on my own.
00:47:37Will you be back tonight?
00:47:39Bye.
00:47:44Be careful.
00:47:51Miss Clark,
00:47:52she just got into the second young master's car.
00:48:01Mia, I'm so glad you came.
00:48:05About Anna earlier, I...
00:48:08The reason I'm here is to ask you a favor.
00:48:10Anything.
00:48:12I want you to attend Anna's birthday party as her boyfriend.
00:48:15What do you mean, Mia?
00:48:17Earlier with Anna, I...
00:48:19It doesn't matter.
00:48:19Will you help me or not?
00:48:21Yes.
00:48:22But I have one request, too.
00:48:29Mia Clark,
00:48:31marry me.
00:48:33Everything my brother can do for you,
00:48:35I can do, too.
00:48:42Hate doesn't exist without love.
00:48:44Let her go,
00:48:45and she'll come back to me.
00:48:48Let her go.
00:48:51Not a chance.
00:49:03Let's go home.
00:49:04Mia, don't leave.
00:49:06Let go.
00:49:07No, Liam, you can't force this.
00:49:10Why are you making things hard for her?
00:49:12Mia, tell him!
00:49:13Carry me.
00:49:23Get out of my way.
00:49:27Liam!
00:49:30Liam?
00:49:31Mia Clark, I have money.
00:49:33I have power.
00:49:33If it's not enough, I'll get more.
00:49:34But you can't love him.
00:49:36I won't let you.
00:49:38Who said I love him?
00:49:45Margie.
00:49:46How sweet?
00:49:47Good to talk to you.
00:49:50Richard.
00:49:52We need to talk.
00:49:58Richard, I know what you did to my daughter in your study.
00:50:02Who gave you permission to go near my study?
00:50:06You think no one can find out about your filthy deeds?
00:50:09Filthy?
00:50:10You cheated on your husband and helped your lover kill him.
00:50:13How do you think your daughter would react if she knew?
00:50:15Richard, I was tricked by you back then.
00:50:17If I'd known Mia's father would die, I never would have agreed.
00:50:19And don't you forget, you planned the whole thing.
00:50:21This is the proof.
00:50:23If you want these evidences destroyed, transfer 50% of the company shares to me.
00:50:26I have copies of these documents.
00:50:30What did you say was inside here?
00:50:32Your crimes.
00:50:35See for yourself.
00:50:39How could this happen?
00:50:45All these years, while I've grown old, you've been living it up.
00:50:49You shameless woman!
00:50:52You thought those little schemes of yours would scare me.
00:50:59Richard, what are you doing?
00:51:06Richard, you're insane!
00:51:08The partnership with the Sterling Group cannot go wrong.
00:51:11Stay here and think about what you've done for a few days.
00:51:23Tonight's birthday dinner is very important.
00:51:25Check every invitation carefully.
00:51:28Don't let anyone uninvited sneak in.
00:51:31I didn't send an invitation to Mia Clark.
00:51:33When she shows up, I'll make her embarrassed the second she walks in.
00:51:36Also, keep an eye on the VIP guests.
00:51:39If Rosa and her agent arrive, inform me immediately.
00:51:41Yes, ma'am.
00:51:45Mia Clark, you better come tonight.
00:51:48I have some great news for you.
00:51:50Good.
00:51:51I have great news for you, too.
00:51:54I'm on my way to the Vance house.
00:51:56Steven Yann said he hasn't been able to reach my mom for two days.
00:51:58I think Richard did something to her.
00:52:00I'll send someone to look into it.
00:52:01Go to the Vance house first.
00:52:03I'll be there soon.
00:52:06Liam, the custom luxury engagement ring arrived today via private jet.
00:52:17Miss Hayes is returning today.
00:52:19Go to the airport and pick her up.
00:52:23I'm not going.
00:52:24Charlotte is the heiress to an international banking group.
00:52:28Offending the Sterl Hayes family will do the Sterlingrop no good.
00:52:30Then tell her to go back.
00:52:32She's already on the plane.
00:52:33Get your assistant and pick her up right now.
00:52:36Let's go.
00:52:37Are we heading to the airport?
00:52:39We still have plenty of time.
00:52:43No.
00:52:45I'm going to be her blade.
00:52:55Excuse me.
00:52:57May I see your invitation?
00:52:59My agent has it.
00:53:00Your agent?
00:53:02Don't tell me you're...
00:53:05No way.
00:53:06If she were a VIP, she'd have an invitation.
00:53:09Agent, nice act.
00:53:10Do you have any idea where you are?
00:53:12Get out of here before you make a scene.
00:53:13Without me here, Anna's birthday party won't go smoothly.
00:53:19Still acting?
00:53:20You really think you're someone important?
00:53:21No invitation, no entry.
00:53:24Not even God could get in here today.
00:53:31Anna, you're amazing.
00:53:32Landing a partnership with the Sterling Group just like that?
00:53:35Totally.
00:53:35Let Mia Clark see who the real Vance Atress is.
00:53:37All these years, she's been stealing your spotlight.
00:53:40No wonder you've always hated the second daughter her.
00:53:42Unlike her, I don't throw myself at men.
00:53:45What matters most to me is my career.
00:53:48Strange.
00:53:49Where's Rosa?
00:53:50And Liam hasn't shown up either.
00:53:53Liam?
00:53:54You call him Liam?
00:53:56Oh my God, are you that close?
00:54:00Liam Sterling is way out of our league.
00:54:03Actually, the second young master of the Sterlings is my boyfriend.
00:54:08He'll be here later.
00:54:09Your boyfriend?
00:54:11Then the Vances and Sterlings are going to be family?
00:54:18Ethan!
00:54:20Are you almost here?
00:54:21I'll come meet you!
00:54:26Well, well.
00:54:27Mia Clark, you made it.
00:54:31Why not come in?
00:54:32Oops.
00:54:33I forgot to send you an invitation.
00:54:36Dad's announcing me as the sole heir of the Vance Group.
00:54:38Useless people don't belong here.
00:54:40After all.
00:54:41You're this stupid and still want to inherit the Vance Group?
00:54:45Richard must be desperate to go bankrupt.
00:54:47I'm being nice by letting you step foot in this house.
00:54:51Don't push your luck.
00:54:54Don't you dare.
00:54:58Go inside first.
00:55:01I'll handle this.
00:55:03All right.
00:55:13It's a pleasure to see everyone here tonight.
00:55:15Dad!
00:55:17Mia Clark crashed the party on purpose to ruin it!
00:55:21Rosa will be here any minute, have her thrown out!
00:55:24Throw me out?
00:55:24And do you really think this party can still go on?
00:55:29Who do you think you are?
00:55:31This party isn't just my birthday celebration.
00:55:34It's also a welcome party for Miss Rosa.
00:55:40Do you honestly think you're Rosa?
00:55:46Rosa, sorry I'm late.
00:55:48Got stuck in traffic.
00:55:49Miss Lucy?
00:55:51Rosa's agent?
00:55:52Nice to meet you.
00:55:53I'm Vance.
00:55:55Wow.
00:55:56You look more stunning than ever.
00:55:59Do you know each other?
00:56:01Know her?
00:56:02If it weren't for her, I wouldn't be where I am today.
00:56:04Miss Lucy, you must be mistaken.
00:56:06Mia Clark is just some bad luck brat whose father died.
00:56:09She never even went to college.
00:56:12Being seen with her is beneath you.
00:56:13How dare you speak like that?
00:56:15Is this how the Vance family behaves?
00:56:18If that's the case, we're calling off the partnership.
00:56:21Let's go, Rosa.
00:56:34Who'd have thought the most mysterious international designer turns out to be the second daughter of the Vance family?
00:56:39Right. We all thought the eldest daughter of the Vance family was the one who secured that partnership with the
00:56:43Sterling Group.
00:56:43Now it seems like the second daughter is the real mastermind.
00:56:46Still, the second daughter has always been beautiful and an excellent student.
00:56:50The Vance family is truly lucky.
00:56:52Enough. This is impossible.
00:56:54How could that bitch be Rosa? It's absolutely impossible.
00:56:57Mia Clark, what the hell are you playing at?
00:56:59Anna, isn't it hard to admit the truth?
00:57:02You came here on purpose to ruin my party.
00:57:05I'll fight you.
00:57:07Enough!
00:57:10Aren't you ashamed enough yet?
00:57:16What's going on here?
00:57:21Ethan, you're finally here.
00:57:24Mia Clark ruined my birthday party on purpose and made a fool of me.
00:57:27You have to stand up for me.
00:57:30Anna, what do you mean by hugging my ex-boyfriend?
00:57:33He's my boyfriend now.
00:57:35We're getting married soon.
00:57:37Tell them, Ethan.
00:57:39Yes.
00:57:40So the two of you got together before I even broke up?
00:57:44Oh!
00:57:47What?
00:57:48Is the Vance heiress a homewrecker?
00:57:58That's just shameless.
00:58:00The Vance family's a total joke.
00:58:05Disgusting.
00:58:07It's not like that.
00:58:09Ethan and I love each other.
00:58:12Last I remember, you were the one who got me drunk.
00:58:14Oh!
00:58:18Ethan!
00:58:21That's enough.
00:58:22Everyone, there's been an unexpected incident.
00:58:25Please step out to the garden for now.
00:58:28I'll have someone come get you when we're ready.
00:58:31You've embarrassed us all!
00:58:34You, come with me upstairs.
00:58:36So this is what you wanted?
00:58:38Use me to get back at her?
00:58:40I do love watching her lose her mind.
00:58:42You hate her so much because of that photo she took back then?
00:58:45But you're the Vance family who could force you in a car if you didn't want to go.
00:58:48Miss Clark, the Master wants you in his study.
00:58:50Now.
00:58:53What's wrong?
00:58:53Are you afraid?
00:58:54You said no one can force me?
00:58:56Because I'm the Vance family's second daughter.
00:58:59Then come see for yourself.
00:59:00How the Vance family's second daughter has really been living all these years.
00:59:14I underestimated you.
00:59:16You've got those two sterling boys wrapped around your little finger.
00:59:20Stop fighting Anna over everything.
00:59:23She's going to marry out eventually.
00:59:24I plan to marry too, Richard.
00:59:27As long as I'm alive, you will never marry anyone.
00:59:35I'm not playing by your rules today.
00:59:38I just want you to know one thing.
00:59:41I'm not a virgin anymore.
00:59:45What did you say?
00:59:46I said I slept with Liam.
00:59:50You slut!
00:59:51You acted so pure in the car before.
00:59:55If I'd known you'd end up like this, I would have...
01:00:03The car?
01:00:04That photo?
01:00:07It was you?
01:00:08Deacon Sterling.
01:00:09You may be a Sterling, but this is the Vance house.
01:00:12Watch your tone.
01:00:14Your house?
01:00:15And that gives you the right to do this, to her drive what me has been through all these
01:00:17years because of you, huh?
01:00:18What the hell do you think you're doing?
01:00:20I'm warning you.
01:00:21The Vance residence is no place for your little tantrum.
01:00:24Tantrums?
01:00:24I'm not just throwing a tantrum.
01:00:26Try stopping me.
01:00:33What did you do, you bitch?
01:00:37Why don't you go inside and find out?
01:00:42Ethan!
01:00:44Stop!
01:00:45Don't hurt him!
01:00:46Dad!
01:00:59My hand!
01:01:01My hand!
01:01:08What are those photos?
01:01:12That looks like...
01:01:14Photos of the Vance's second daughter.
01:01:17No.
01:01:18It can't be.
01:01:25Mia.
01:01:27No wonder.
01:01:30All these years, you only let Mia Clark into your study.
01:01:34It's because you were doing this dirty, shameful thing.
01:01:38Goodness.
01:01:40Richard was after his own adopted daughter?
01:01:42That's totally immarmal.
01:01:48Well, stop that.
01:01:50Put your phones down.
01:01:52No photos.
01:01:52What the hell are you doing?
01:01:55This isn't Mia's fault.
01:01:57Then what did I do wrong?
01:02:01Don't you get it?
01:02:03Do you know who the man in that car was?
01:02:05The one you took a photo of all those years ago?
01:02:11As you all can see, Richard has been preying on his own adopted daughter.
01:02:15But that's not the worst of what he's done.
01:02:22Shut up!
01:02:24Scared now?
01:02:27Did you not feel a thing when you killed my dad all those years ago?
01:02:31Mia's father.
01:02:33Wasn't his death a car accident?
01:02:35Could there be more to it?
01:02:36It was you who had my dad's brakes cut
01:02:39and swapped the cars at the crash scene.
01:02:44Evidence?
01:02:47Prove it.
01:02:52Here's the evidence.
01:02:54After the crash, do exactly as I say.
01:02:57I'll handle the surveillance footage.
01:02:58He must not make it out alive today.
01:03:03It's fake!
01:03:05You faked this!
01:03:09We'll let the police figure out if it's fake.
01:03:16Take him to the police station, take him in, and don't bother coming back out.
01:03:21Understand?
01:03:32I should have killed him long ago.
01:03:35Killing him would only dirty your hands.
01:03:38All I wanted was justice for my dad.
01:03:40And now, I have it.
01:03:47Hey!
01:03:49Ice face!
01:03:50Long time no see.
01:04:02What, pretending you don't know me?
01:04:07We took finance classes together overseas.
01:04:14Get off me.
01:04:16You were always this cold back then, but now I'm your fiancetche.
01:04:20Isn't it normal for a fiancet to carry his fiancée?
01:04:24It's her?
01:04:25Do you know her?
01:04:27You wouldn't know her since you've been here, but I've seen her in finance magazines.
01:04:31She's Charlotte Hayes, Harris to Hayes International Bank, just as much a financial genius as Liam.
01:04:40Charlotte, get down now.
01:04:42Charlotte Hayes?
01:04:44I saw her in Global Finance magazine.
01:04:46She's even prettier in person.
01:04:49So she's Liam's fiancet?
01:04:50Hey, they look perfect together.
01:04:57Is this for me?
01:05:00It fits perfectly, and it's my favorite pink diamond.
01:05:03Stop acting so cold, you ice prince.
01:05:07You're trying to propose to me, aren't you?
01:05:15You must be Ice Face's friend.
01:05:18You're gorgeous.
01:05:25What are you doing here?
01:05:27Uncle Sterling sent me to pick you home.
01:05:29Go home first.
01:05:31I'll explain everything to you after I handle this.
01:05:34You go back first.
01:05:35I'll find you later.
01:05:48Mom!
01:05:59Mom!
01:06:01Are you in there?
01:06:05Move aside.
01:06:06Let me do it.
01:06:11Hurry!
01:06:13Take her to the hospital!
01:06:21The doctor said she hasn't eaten or drunk anything for at least two or three days.
01:06:26I see.
01:06:28You saw it too.
01:06:30Liam has a fiancet.
01:06:31It's impossible.
01:06:33You and Liam, I'm sorry about what happened before.
01:06:36Go back first.
01:06:36I want to be alone.
01:06:37Mr. Liam Sterling, the leader of Sterling Group, is about to get engaged to Charlotte Hayes,
01:06:42Mrs. Heiress of Hayes International Bankrupt.
01:06:45A scandalous affair broke out at the birthday party of the Vance Group's Hayress today.
01:06:48Police have now confirmed that Richard Vance is the prime suspect of a murder of his-
01:06:51And is currently suspect of a murder investigation.
01:06:58Mia, I'm sorry.
01:07:00Are you still mad at mom?
01:07:03You tried to have someone kill me.
01:07:04You don't allow me to be mad.
01:07:05Do you want me to die willingly?
01:07:06I sent people to kidnap you that day, but I never thought about hurting you.
01:07:10Mom just didn't want you to-
01:07:12Afraid I'd sue you, so you wanted to silence me?
01:07:15Isn't that what you wanted?
01:07:17You're my daughter.
01:07:18How could I ever kill you?
01:07:20But it's also true that you let Richard kill dad.
01:07:27Mom, people always have to pay for their mistakes.
01:07:30Richard is already in custody.
01:07:31Anna is almost crazy.
01:07:33And the entire Vance Group is about to collapse.
01:07:38Mia, I was wrong.
01:07:40Please forgive me, okay?
01:07:52Uncle Sterling, it's delicious.
01:07:53I'm glad you like it.
01:07:55From now on, have Liam keep a chef on hand for you.
01:07:57He can cook anything you want.
01:08:01Ice face, try some.
01:08:04I only came back to tell you this engagement is off.
01:08:07I have someone I love.
01:08:09I'll have someone send you away tomorrow.
01:08:11Are you sure you want to go after her?
01:08:13I thought after what happened last time,
01:08:16you would understand my resolve.
01:08:25It's okay, Uncle Sterling.
01:08:27Liam has always been this moody ever since we were abroad.
01:08:29I'm used to it.
01:09:07Not coming in?
01:09:16Want to go for a drive to clear your head?
01:09:18Want to go for a drive to clear your head?

01:18:03You promised me a little time, didn't you?
01:18:08Mia Clark.
01:18:10This isn't goodbye forever.
01:18:12Not between us.
01:18:16Mia.
01:18:28What are you doing here?
01:18:31Stop looking for her.
01:18:34I just saw her off.
01:18:39What did you say to her?
01:18:41Who gave you the right to send her away without my permission?
01:18:44She's the one who wanted to leave.
01:18:46That's not true.
01:18:48Tell me where she went.
01:18:51Liam!
01:18:51Be reasonable!
01:18:54You have no idea what she means to me.
01:18:57You're right.
01:18:57I don't understand you.
01:18:59But you don't understand Mia either.
01:19:01You know her past.
01:19:03How long she fought in the dark.
01:19:05But you should also know she never wanted to be anyone's wife.
01:19:12Mia has her own dreams.
01:19:15And you and I, we both carry our family's expectations.
01:19:18If you really care about her, let her find who she truly is.
01:19:31Rosa!
01:19:32You're a genius!
01:19:34That new spring-summer collection, Night Dream Evening Gowns.
01:19:37Right after the show, all the A-listers are fighting over them at auction.
01:19:40The highest bid already hit $20 million.
01:19:43Oh, have you seen the news today?
01:19:45Not yet.
01:19:46I've been busy working on my next collection.
01:19:49Uh, maybe you should check it out.
01:19:51I'll call you later.
01:20:19Can I...
01:20:21Come in for a moment.
01:20:27Come in.
01:20:31Every collection you've designed these past three years has been a runaway hit.
01:20:37Congratulations.
01:20:38Thanks for getting me this apartment and for sorting out my school.
01:20:47I've been on my own since I was little.
01:20:49I know exactly how hard that is.
01:20:53Shouldn't you be planning your engagement right now?
01:20:56Why are you here?
01:20:59I ran away.
01:21:00Why?
01:21:01Some shoes just don't fit.
01:21:03I forced myself to wear them for three years and it hurt too much.
01:21:06It's time to let go.
01:21:08After you left, he worked day and night.
01:21:12Then not long ago, Mr. Sterling fell ill.
01:21:16From his hospital bed, he starved himself to force Liam into marrying me.
01:21:23Three years of him ignoring me, acting cold toward me, none of that broke me.
01:21:28But the second he gave in by that hospital bed, my pride shattered, so I ran.
01:21:33My pride won't let me marry him like that.
01:21:38What are you going to do now?
01:21:39Where will you go?
01:21:42My family's hunting for me after I bailed on the wedding.
01:21:45I'll just keep running until I'm ready to go back and apologize.
01:21:52There's something else.
01:21:56Something you don't know.
01:22:04Ten years ago, Liam and I took the same finance class.
01:22:07He was only a teenager back then, managing the company while going to school with bodyguards
01:22:11and his personal butler watching him almost 24 seconds that he was so quiet, but you'd
01:22:15never know who he really was.
01:22:21So that's how hard he had it.
01:22:22People like us are born carrying the rise and fall of our families.
01:22:27When he came back later, he studied and worked even harder.
01:22:30He even took up boxing.
01:22:32I didn't find out until later when he heard how you were being treated at the Vance.
01:22:35He made a bet with Mr. Sterling.
01:22:38He asked Mr. Sterl to use the Sterling name to intimidate the Vances, to keep you safe.
01:22:43I thought it was because of Ethan.
01:22:45Ethan's not the heir to the Sterling group.
01:22:49The Vances would never be afraid of him.
01:22:53He promised Mr. Sterling that he would make Sterling Group's financial company top Wall
01:22:57Street in 10 years.
01:22:58If he failed, he'd never come back to New York.
01:23:03But he kept that bet in just seven years.
01:23:06Those seven years were brutal for him.
01:23:08When the company first got off the ground and finally found its footing, he took most
01:23:13of the funds to invest in your designs.
01:23:19These past few years, under his management, the Sterling Group doesn't need a marriage
01:23:23alliance anymore.
01:23:26He's planned everything for you.
01:23:29He's just waiting for you to come back.
01:23:37Even if you hadn't come today, I would have gone back to crash the wedding.
01:23:42It took me three years to find myself and to figure out my heart.
01:23:49My dreams in him were never a choice between one or the other.
01:23:55This is it.
01:23:56The one I've been looking for.
01:24:01He originally prepared this for you.
01:24:07Now it's where it belongs.
01:24:15Liam, you really need to take care of yourself.
01:24:22Bring me the development project proposal again.
01:24:24Notify the marketing department to go on a business trip with me tomorrow.
01:24:27It'll last a week.
01:24:28Tell them to pack everything they need.
01:24:30Liam, you don't have to handle all these things yourself.
01:24:38Hey, Ice Face.
01:24:39Are you coming home tonight?
01:24:41If you're going to run away from the wedding, run far away.
01:24:44Don't bother with my business.
01:24:46I have something to give you.
01:24:48I don't need it.
01:24:49It's about Mia.
01:24:53You're at the company, right?
01:24:54Open the second drawer on your left.
01:24:57Inside is the answer Mia left three years ago.
01:24:59After you read it, go home early.
01:25:05She loves me.
01:25:06Look, she drew a wedding dress.
01:25:08She wanted to marry me.
01:25:09Yes.
01:25:11Miss Clark definitely wanted to marry you.
01:25:16Added on your� small school.
01:25:18Miss Clark from the wind.
