03:17See how he reacts.
03:22Don't forget to send me the meeting minutes on time.
03:26You evil capitalist.
03:29Absolutely heartless.
03:30No humanity whatsoever.
03:32I'll have them to you on time.
03:35Screw you.
03:36If I didn't need the money, I wouldn't give you the time of day.
03:43Next, let's look at this section.
03:45Regarding Saks Quarter's project planning.
03:48Oh yeah, let's see.
03:49Let's go see.
03:52What's going on?
03:53What happened?
04:00Guess who just casually got Arthur to agree to a date?
04:03What?
04:04Arthur?
04:04That famously cold, gorgeous guy?
04:06Everyone in our circle knows he's not interested in women.
04:10Lucy, you've got game.
04:11If you can land him, that's the ultimate glow up.
04:14Let me tell you.
04:15One time I accidentally knocked over Arthur's water glass.
04:19When his shirt got wet, I come to totally see the outline of his ams.
04:24He has an eight pack.
04:25You don't think he's secretly in love with me, do you?
04:28Like, he might beg me to marry him.
04:31My laptop is connected to the projector today.
04:34Oh God, I'm done for.
04:35This is it.
04:37I've humiliated myself completely.
04:50My apologies.
04:51I accidentally clipped on that.
04:52Now, let's get down to business.
04:57Did I see that wrong?
04:58Did he just smile?
05:07Her?
05:07She's got her eyes on Arthur?
05:09She must be out of her mind.
05:11Does she even realize who Arthur is?
05:13She's just an assistant, but she's acting like she's on his level?
05:16Absolutely no clue.
05:18If Catherine ever finds out, she's in for a world of trouble.
05:21Let's be real.
05:22Catherine and Arthur are the ones who actually belong together.
05:26They're right.
05:28I was just delusional.
05:29I deserve this.
05:43Great.
05:44He's asleep.
05:45I'll just quietly leave the food and go.
05:47Absolutely cannot run into him.
05:49That would be way too awkward.
05:56Oh my God, he is so handsome.
05:58No, no, Lucy.
06:00Get a grip.
06:01Was yesterday's humiliate you not enough for you?
06:04Close the door on your way out.
06:06Oh, okay.
06:07Hold on.
06:08Oh no, oh no.
06:09Is he going to fire me?
06:11Or dock my pay?
06:13Is there anything else?
06:15Sorry about earlier in the conference room.
06:17I clicked on it by accident.
06:20Help!
06:20Why is he bringing that up again?
06:22This is so awkward.
06:24It's...
06:25It's fine.
06:26Don't worry about it.
06:28Also, from now on, try to focus more on your work.
06:32Okay.
06:33Got it.
06:35Why do I feel so disappointed?
06:38I guess I was holding on to expectations I shouldn't have had.
06:41Just like nine years ago.
06:43Knowing it was impossible, but still unable to stop myself from dreaming.
06:46So you're Lucy.
06:49Yeah, that's me.
06:50Can I help you with something?
06:52Go get me a cup of coffee.
06:57Corporate headquarters like this must have serious connections.
07:01I can't afford to offend her.
07:09One moment, please.
07:17She's done for.
07:18The real girlfriend just came looking for her.
07:20She's going to regret it.
07:21Right?
07:21This is going to be good.
07:28What are you talking about?
07:29What do you mean I'm done for?
07:31Who is she exactly?
07:34That's Catherine Brooks, the daughter of the Brooke Group's president.
07:37Arthur's number one fangirl.
07:39She's been chasing him for years.
07:40So I got this little scoop from my rich friend who runs in high society circles.
07:44Oh, apparently in their world, Catherine really went all out trying to win Arthur over.
07:49You're just a junior assistant.
07:50You wouldn't have access to that kind of elite circle.
07:52It makes sense you don't know.
07:54I see.
07:55So word about what happened in the conference room this morning has already reached her ears.
07:59That's why she's so hostile towards me.
08:01This is bad.
08:07Here you go.
08:08Arthur is out running errands.
08:10If she starts something with me right now, I won't be able to handle it.
08:15I need to leave before I cause any trouble.
08:18Come back.
08:21Miss Brooks, is there something else?
08:24Did I say I wanted iced coffee?
08:26Ah, called it.
08:27Take it back and make a new one.
08:29I want hot coffee.
08:30It's 104 degrees outside today, and she wants hot coffee?
08:35Of course.
08:36I'll go make a new one right away.
08:56Too hot.
08:57Go make another one.
09:08It's cold.
09:09Make it again.
09:15Too bitter.
09:16You put too much sugar in it.
09:25Not enough sugar.
09:26Tasteless.
09:34The coffee isn't fully dissolved.
09:36There are lumps.
09:41This cup is here-ious.
09:43It makes me sick just looking at it.
09:48Miss Brooks, we're out of chaton and fresh milk.
09:50There's really no way to make another one.
09:52Are you really out, or are you just refusing to serve me on purpose?
09:55I came all the way here to see Arthur.
09:57And this is how you do your job as his assistant.
09:59You can't even make a proper coffee.
10:01You're so clumsy and useless.
10:03What's the point of a company keeping a waste of space like you?
10:06I thought she was just temperamental, but now she's resorting to personal attacks?
10:10That's way out of line.
10:12Forget it.
10:12I can't win against her, so I'll just stay out of her way.
10:19That's it.
10:19Easy dodge.
10:22Oh no.
10:23This is even more awkward.
10:24Too bad the coffee is brown this time.
10:26Can't see the abs outline.
10:28Arthur, I didn't mean to.
10:29Let me explain.
10:31It's her fault.
10:31All her fault.
10:32I just said the cup was a little dirty and asked her to change it.
10:35But she gave me attitude and deliberately made things difficult for me.
10:38I got upset and accidentally spilled it on you.
10:48No wonder Sophia said Arthur has a way of making every girl who makes a move on him hit a
10:53wall.
10:54He really doesn't spare anyone's feelings.
10:59Come with me to my office.
11:09Get me a clean set of clothes from the cabinet.
11:14What is he doing?
11:16Is this something I'm supposed to be seeing?
11:19Give me the clothes.
11:21Oh, okay.
11:22Here.
11:23He just stripped in front of me like that?
11:25Is he doing this on purpose?
11:27Stop overthinking.
11:28There's no way he did that on purpose.
11:30I'm definitely reading too much into it.
11:34Do you know how to tie a tie?
11:36Huh?
11:37I think so.
11:38I learned once.
11:39Hopefully I haven't forgotten.
11:41Come here.
11:42Help me with it.
11:43I don't know if that's...
11:48Too close.
11:49We're way too close.
11:50Why is he looking down?
11:51What is he looking at?
11:52Good thing I washed my hair yesterday.
11:54Want to give it a try?
11:58Try what?
12:01What do you think?
12:04What do you want to try?
12:25You can leave now.
12:29What does that mean?
12:30He's telling me to leave?
12:32Then what was that just now?
12:34I'm going on a business trip tomorrow.
12:37Pack my luggage for me.
12:38The usual standard.
12:40So I'm just his stress relief tool?
12:41Use me and toss me aside?
12:43Ugh.
12:43Whatever.
12:44With a face and a body like his,
12:45I'm clearly the one coming out out higher.
12:47I'd have to pay big bucks for a male model this hot.
12:49So yeah.
12:50No loss here.
12:51But damn.
12:52He's the most ice cold person I've ever seen.
12:57What are you all doing?
13:00Uh, Lucy, I, um, I have a document for Arthur to sign.
13:05I just didn't dare knock.
13:07I have a project payment that needs Arthur's approval.
13:09It's time sensitive.
13:11I, I, I came to clean the entrance.
13:17Lucy, you were in Arthur's office for two whole hours.
13:20What were you two doing in there?
13:22Spill it.
13:23Yeah.
13:24Lucy, just tell me quietly.
13:26I promise I won't tell anyone.
13:28Did you two actually, you know?
13:31I used to think Arthur wasn't even into women.
13:34I didn't know you had it in you.
13:35You actually landed him.
13:37Me too.
13:37Me too.
13:38Lucy, I'm more your guy from now on.
13:40Whatever you tell me do, I'll do it.
13:44I was in there helping Arthur organize documents.
13:46Just organizing documents.
13:48If anyone starts spreading rumors and gets themselves fired, don't say I didn't warn you.
14:06These people are more terrifying than zombies.
14:08One more second here and I'll lose my mind.
14:11Time to run.
14:15Get here by seven.
14:20Right.
14:21For someone of his status and position, sleeping with someone was nothing.
14:25Why would he even give it a second thought?
14:27I've worked here a year and this is the first time I've been to his house.
14:31Oh my god.
14:33A villa this big.
14:35Yeah.
14:36The gap between us is just too wide.
14:45The luggage is ready.
14:48Got it.
14:55Wait.
15:00I'm sorry.
15:01What does I'm sorry mean?
15:03It means he's not going to be with me, so he have to apologize, right?
15:07That bastard.
15:18Not tall enough.
15:19Next batch.
15:23Not wild enough.
15:24Next batch.
15:27Not big enough.
15:28Next batch.
15:30Lucy, are you unhappy with these guys or is the person you're thinking about just not here?
15:35Please.
15:36I'm not thinking about that bastard at all.
15:38Oh?
15:39I didn't even say who.
15:41Him.
15:42I'll take him.
15:45Hey sis, your phone's ringing.
15:48God, it's so loud in here.
15:50Who can hear anything with this music blasting?
15:53What could he possibly want with me?
15:54More work?
15:56Hello?
15:56Arthur?
15:57Can you hear me?
15:58I said screw you.
15:59I said screw you.
16:01It's Saturday, okay?
16:02Do you know what Saturday means?
16:04Saturday means it's my day off.
16:06And you're still bothering me on my day off?
16:08Didn't anyone ever tell you that a decent boss should drop dead the second work ends?
16:13Please.
16:13Stay out of your employee's personal life.
16:21Screw Arthur.
16:23Screw love.
16:24Screw work.
16:25I don't want any of it, you cheating bastard.
16:33Feels like I dreamed that I yelled at Arthur.
16:39It was just a dream.
16:40So what if I yelled at him?
16:42No big deal.
16:51Where are you?
16:52Are you alone?
16:54Who's that person next to you?
16:56Kind of ugly.
16:57Tell him to keep his distance.
16:59Have you been drinking?
17:00How much have you had?
17:02When are you done?
17:04Call me when you're done.
17:05Lucy, talk to me.
17:07Are you home yet?
17:08Are you drunk?
17:09If you don't reply soon, I'm dopping your pay.
17:12Docking my pay?
17:13On what grounds?
17:14Oh no.
17:15I really did yell at Arthur.
17:17I'm so dead.
17:19What am I going to do when I go to work on Monday?
17:24Who is it at this hour?
17:26God, it's so annoying.
17:35Arthur, aren't you supposed to be on a business trip?
17:38What are you doing here?
17:42Who were you with last night?
17:46I was out drinking with friends.
17:50Wait, why am I even answering him?
17:54Drinking with friends and hiring male models, weren't you?
18:00We just had a few drinks.
18:02That's all.
18:04Did you spend the night with them?
18:07What?
18:09Did you sleep with any of them?
18:11What are you talking about?
18:13That's way out of line.
18:17Answer me.
18:20No.
18:39Have you ever been in a relationship before?
18:45No.
18:46Sadly, as dirty-minded as I usually talk, my practical experience is zero.
18:52Actually, back in college, I met a girl I really liked.
18:56Back then, I didn't realize that with a family like mine, I had no say in my own marriage.
19:03I told my family I wanted to marry her, my parents were firmly against it, at first I fought back,
19:09cold wars, confrontations, but just like in the movies, they froze all my assets, cut off my financial support, and
19:16even threatened her family.
19:17I had no choice.
19:19In the end, I left her.
19:20My parents had me transfer schools, sent me abroad, forced me to study business and take over the family company.
19:27I already know all this.
19:30I have had a crush on him since high school.
19:32I even got into the same college as him.
19:37All these years, I've worked so hard because I wanted to be in control of my own life.
19:42What I want is freedom.
19:43The freedom to choose the person I love.
19:45No wonder I always felt like he carried so much pressure at work.
19:49So that's why.
19:50But even if he's different now, I still love him.
19:54Lucy, will you be with me?
19:58I can't make you any promises right now.
20:00I don't even know if I'll ever truly be able to control my own fate.
20:03But during this time, I'll treat you well.
20:06I won't let you suffer.
20:08Yes.
20:10Yes, I will.
20:19The weather's nice today.
20:20Do you want to go for a walk?
20:21I mean, do you want to go on a date?
20:24Of course.
20:25I'd love to.
20:30I really want to hold his hand.
20:32Isn't that what boyfriends and girlfriends do?
20:44Pick whatever you want.
20:46Whatever you'd like to buy today, it's your call.
20:49Oh my god!
20:51This trench coat is $20,000?
20:53That's insane!
20:55No way.
20:56I'm the CEO's girlfriend now.
20:57Spending my boyfriend's money is only natural.
21:00This trench coat, this dress, and those ones over there.
21:02I'll take all of them.
21:03Of course, ma'am.
21:05Sir, ma'am, that comes to a total of $127,000.
21:09Holy shit!
21:10These few pieces cost that much?
21:12Did I buy too much?
21:13Maybe I should return a few.
21:15If you do that, people will think I'm bankrupt.
21:18Your financial situation is a little extreme, don't you think?
21:23Swipe as much as you want.
21:25If you actually max it out, then I don't know what I'm doing.
21:37That's so much money!
21:39I'm rich!
21:41Happy?
21:42Weren't you complaining that I never give you a raise?
21:45Is this enough?
21:46Happy!
21:47So happy!
21:48My annual salary just doubled!
21:51Who said that was your annual salary?
21:53That's just your daily rate.
21:54Daily rate?
21:55Won't you go bankrupt at this rate?
21:57Maybe I'm richer than you think.
21:59Oh my god.
22:00I'm so lucky.
22:02Not long after we got together, I moved in with Arthur.
22:06Every day with him was so happy.
22:09The only thing was, we kept our relationship a secret.
22:14Even coming and going from work, we deliberately left in different directions.
22:19I know his situation is complicated, but it still hurts sometimes.
22:29Lucy, this is my mother.
22:32She's Arthur's mother?
22:34If what Arthur said is true, his mother must hate me, doesn't she?
22:38You must be Lucy.
22:40I've heard about you.
22:42You're Arthur's assistant.
22:44A very capable young woman.
22:46Nice to meet you.
22:52Lucy, I want to talk to you about something.
22:55I was thinking, maybe you don't need to come into the office anymore.
23:00You're afraid that people at the company will find out about us?
23:04That it would look bad, right?
23:06Okay.
23:07It's fine.
23:08No big deal.
23:09I can find another job.
23:11A friend of mine is hiring.
23:12I could put in a good word for you.
23:17But when it comes to work, I want to do this on my own.
23:19I've got this.
23:24Hey, babe.
23:25You need to get online.
23:27Someone posted pictures of you and Arthur holding hands on the street.
23:30I saw.
23:31But what am I supposed to do about it?
23:33We're a couple after all.
23:35Yeah, but I heard that Arthur and Catherine are getting engaged.
23:38What?
23:39Where did you hear that from?
23:41Okay, got it.
23:42Thanks, Sophia.
23:43Babe, don't do anything impulsive.
23:45He's just a guy.
23:47If it doesn't work out, I can set you up with someone better.
23:50Yeah, I know.
23:51I'll ask him about it first.
23:52I'll call you later.
23:58Are you really going to marry Catherine?
24:00Didn't you say you wanted to be in control of your own life?
24:03I'm sorry, Lucy.
24:05I still can't do it.
24:06I still can't stand up to my parents.
24:08He's tried so hard.
24:10He's so accomplished.
24:11But still, he can't go against a single word from his parents.
24:14So his mother being so nice to me before,
24:17it wasn't that she approved of me.
24:19It was that she never saw me as worth her attention at all.
24:24So what now?
24:25What are you saying?
24:26Do you want to break up?
24:29Lucy, that's not what I mean.
24:31But I really don't have any other options.
24:34My parents want me to marry Catherine.
24:36I don't love her.
24:38But maybe, even after I'm married, we could still be together.
24:42Just like we are now.
24:44Enough.
24:46Enough.
24:47Do you even hear yourself right now?
24:50Can't you understand me?
24:51Lucy, if I had nothing, would you still be with me?
24:54You think I'm with you for your money?
24:56Arthur, what do you take me for?
24:58I'm sorry, Lucy.
24:59I got too emotional.
25:00I didn't mean it like that.
25:08Take them back.
25:10Take them all back.
25:11I don't want them.
25:12You think I care about this stuff?
25:14Lucy, don't do this.
25:15I'm sorry.
25:16I'm so sorry.
25:17I said the wrong thing.
25:18Please forgive me, okay?
25:23Propose to me right now.
25:25Propose with this key ring.
25:27And I'll marry you.
25:28Even if you have nothing, I'll marry you.
25:30Do you dare?
25:33I'm sorry, Lucy.
25:35I'm so sorry.
25:40Then goodbye.
25:44And so, just like that, we broke up.
25:58Arthur and Catherine started appearing everywhere together.
26:01And then, they got married.
26:14Just kidding.
26:16This is already the 16th day the patient has refused to eat.
26:20His body is extremely weak.
26:21If this continues, I'm afraid he may not make it.
26:26Arthur, it's my fault.
26:29I pushed you too hard.
26:30If we had known he loved that girl this much, we should have just let them be together.
26:34See what you did?
26:36You and your damn pride.
26:37That's all you care about.
26:39Now our son's a mess.
26:40Happy now?
26:41You didn't agree to them being together either.
26:43Why are you blaming only me?
26:45Arthur, just eat.
26:47Get your strength back.
26:48We won't force you to leave that girl anymore.
26:50We promise.
26:54Please, go see Arthur.
26:56He doesn't have much time left.
26:57He wants to see you one last time before he dies.
27:03All right.
27:04I'll go see him.
27:08I...
27:09I suddenly feel a little better.
27:12I think I'd like to eat something.
27:13Quick, go!
27:15Bring him something to eat!
27:19I'd like a few words alone with Lucy.
27:22Take your time.
27:24We'll step out.
27:27Where did you even come up with this idea?
27:30I didn't have any other options.
27:32How are you feeling now?
27:34Are you okay?
27:35I'm fine.
27:36Seeing you, I feel a lot better.
27:39Good.
27:40Since you're fine, I should get going.
27:42I have work tomorrow.
27:43You're not going to stay a little longer?
27:45Look at me.
27:46I'm like this.
27:47Can't help it.
27:48My new company's boss is a workaholic.
27:51I'm really busy.
27:52It's hard enough getting time off as it is.
27:54Then are you going to have to ask for time off for the wedding too?
28:01Where did that come from?
28:03Don't tell me you've been carrying that around with you.
28:06Never mind that.
28:07I want to know.
28:08Is it too late?
28:10Too late for what?
28:13Too late to give you this ring.
28:16And to apologize for what I said before.
28:19I'm sorry.
28:21I thought you were going to propose.
28:24Propose lying in a hospital bed?
28:25That would be way too half-assed.
28:28Fair enough.
28:29You make a good point.
28:31So?
28:32What's your answer?
28:34Put it on me.
28:35I suppose I'll reluctantly accept your apology.
28:40We'll always be together, right?
28:42Of course.
28:44Of course.
28:44You
