00:15:51i said the madam is in the next room let's check it
00:15:59how
00:16:02tess
00:16:04Don't you owe us an explanation?
00:16:07It's over.
00:16:08She angered Reed.
00:16:10And she must suffer something.
00:16:12After all this preparation, I can't just admit defeat.
00:16:15What other tricks do you want to pay Lee?
00:16:17Good.
00:16:17The footage.
00:16:19Thank God.
00:16:20I tricked Cade into planting the device on Paige.
00:16:23How could it have failed?
00:16:26Maybe I really did misjudge this.
00:16:28Sir, I was only worried about Madam.
00:16:30Punish me.
00:16:31Enough.
00:16:32It was just a joke.
00:16:33It is over.
00:16:35Let's go back.
00:16:49Calm down, Tess.
00:16:50You left no clues.
00:16:53Reed?
00:16:58Stop.
00:17:00Tess, right?
00:17:01I've had you investigated.
00:17:03Given your actions, I could easily put you behind bars.
00:17:06He investigated me.
00:17:08Does he know my real purpose?
00:17:12Sir, I don't understand.
00:17:15If you have nothing else for me, I should go now.
00:17:19Cut the act.
00:17:20Your schemes may have fooled everyone else, but not me.
00:17:24Using a fake gem as a bug to create a cheating scandal, forcing them to divorce, so you could
00:17:31take her place.
00:17:32Since you know everything, why haven't you exposed me?
00:17:36No evidence?
00:17:38Put away your mediocre tricks.
00:17:40Our reputation is not a leverage.
00:17:45Since you've mistaken me for such a conniving woman, becoming your woman.
00:17:53Is more appealing to me.
00:17:55Read.
00:17:56I promise.
00:17:57I'd be much more tame than Paige.
00:18:03You actually feel physically disgusted at a woman's touch.
00:18:09Knowing you have a weakness makes things much easier.
00:18:12You react so strongly.
00:18:14Have you never been touched by a woman before?
00:18:18Here, clean.
00:18:20Listen.
00:18:21If a single person finds out about what happened tonight, I will make sure you will die.
00:18:27I won't tell anyone.
00:18:30But.
00:18:31You must do me a favor.
00:18:44You tricked me.
00:18:46He must be arranged by you.
00:18:48You want to crush my reputation.
00:18:50What are you saying?
00:18:51I don't understand.
00:18:53Don't understand?
00:18:54Explain today's events?
00:18:56If I hadn't run quickly, I'd be caught.
00:18:59I'll cast you out now, and you won't see a single cent.
00:19:03Madam, let go.
00:19:04You're truly misunderstanding me.
00:19:06What?
00:19:06Are you stalling to have my husband rescue you?
00:19:09Listen to me.
00:19:10Nobody is coming to save you today.
00:19:12Really?
00:19:16Stop.
00:19:18She meant to disgrace our family.
00:19:20I was about to kick her out.
00:19:22How did she disgrace the family?
00:19:24Shashay seduced Cade.
00:19:26Didn't you see it too?
00:19:26I gave her a chance, yet she showed no remorse, and got caught again.
00:19:31This time I can't keep her.
00:19:33So you're here holding grudges?
00:19:36The guests haven't left yet.
00:19:39You're causing this commotion?
00:19:40Want them to return?
00:19:41To laugh at us?
00:19:44Look up.
00:19:47No matter what she's done before, from today, she is mine.
00:19:53Anyone who dares touch her.
00:19:56Reed, what did you just say?
00:20:03Reed, what did you say?
00:20:05I said, she's mine.
00:20:09Is that clear?
00:20:11She's nothing but a scheming woman.
00:20:14How could you?
00:20:15Paige, when should I require answering to you?
00:20:19Tess, you're quite the manipulator.
00:20:21From Cade to Reed.
00:20:23You've fought up the social ladder, with such ease.
00:20:26I'm impressed.
00:20:31I can keep it to myself?
00:20:34But you have to do me a favor.
00:20:40Wait.
00:20:42Don't think I don't know who you met tonight.
00:20:44If I hadn't covered for you, in front of Cade, you'd have been exposed long ago.
00:20:48I'm warning you.
00:20:49Stop harming our reputation.
00:20:51Otherwise, I wouldn't mind handing your secrets over to police.
00:20:57Luckily, I specifically learned lip-reading.
00:20:59Paige's biggest weakness actually lies in Reed's hands.
00:21:05Do you think you cling to Reed would earn you a spot?
00:21:10However, Miss Murphy hails from an affluent family, radiates grace, and is the perfect choice for the lady of the
00:21:14Joe household.
00:21:15Do you think you can compete?
00:21:17So what?
00:21:19Some men, no matter how arrogant, end up at my feet in the end.
00:21:25Isn't that something Madam personally witnessed before?
00:21:30Quit your gloating.
00:21:31Your downfall is coming.
00:21:44Reed, cooling soup, taste it.
00:21:49You keep it.
00:21:53Wanna borrow me to ward off admirers?
00:21:56Perfect.
00:21:57I was looking for a chance to be near you.
00:22:00Here you go, Reed.
00:22:04This is my personal item.
00:22:07After you've used it, remember to return it.
00:22:11Bitch, dare to seduce Reed?
00:22:13I'll make you pay.
00:22:19Paige, your maid is even more enchanting than you.
00:22:27Miss Murphy, it's a misunderstanding.
00:22:29As for Tess, she's no longer a maid.
00:22:33What does that mean?
00:22:41What did she mean?
00:22:46Miss Murphy, bought your business.
00:22:50How?
00:22:51I am your fiancé.
00:22:56I never admitted that.
00:22:57But technically I am.
00:22:59Our families are well matched.
00:23:00We grew up together.
00:23:02Your grandfather agreed that I'd marry you.
00:23:05You wanna marry bitch?
00:23:09Miss, with bizarre tastes like yours, were I Mr. Turner?
00:23:13I wouldn't choose you either.
00:23:16Bizarre tastes?
00:23:17What do you mean?
00:23:19If you hadn't eaten dung, your mouth wouldn't reek so badly.
00:23:27You bitch!
00:23:32Enough.
00:23:33Reed, you're defending her?
00:23:35Do you actually like her?
00:23:38Have you forgotten our agreement?
00:23:42Jane Murphy?
00:23:43I won't marry you.
00:23:44This is my final warning.
00:23:46Don't touch Tess again.
00:23:51You!
00:23:58Your misogynistic streak is really that severe?
00:24:01You even spurn your own fiancé?
00:24:02Shut up.
00:24:04You're angry?
00:24:06Come on.
00:24:07I just offended her for your sake.
00:24:10You should protect me.
00:24:12You Eve schemed against Paige.
00:24:14Scared?
00:24:15I was just counting on you before.
00:24:18Don't forget.
00:24:22I have no obligation for you.
00:24:26He is really hard to deal with.
00:24:29Looks like...
00:24:30I have to utilize Jane.
00:25:00Don't be sad, Miss Murphy.
00:25:02I have an idea.
00:25:03It might help you deal with her.
00:25:14Is this going too far?
00:25:16What if...
00:25:17She dared to seduce Reed.
00:25:18If we don't teach her a lesson,
00:25:20she won't go up.
00:25:22Besides, we'll just scare her.
00:25:24Not hurt her.
00:25:25You're right.
00:25:26She dares to seduce my man.
00:25:28She has to pay the price.
00:25:29Reed!
00:25:30I've been learning archery lately.
00:25:31Let me try.
00:25:32Okay.
00:25:37Shooting dead targets is boring.
00:25:39Miss Bennett,
00:25:40why don't you stand over there
00:25:41and be my living target?
00:25:44No matter what,
00:25:45I must hold on until Reed gets back.
00:25:46If you dare to resist,
00:25:47do you believe?
00:25:48He will go hard.
00:25:50I investigated that
00:25:51you have a mentally challenged brother.
00:25:53What if I...
00:25:54I will do it.
00:25:56But if Reed sees me injured,
00:25:58what do you think he'll do?
00:26:02Enough.
00:26:12I warned you.
00:26:14Don't touch her.
00:26:15Reed,
00:26:15I just wanted to scare her.
00:26:17Just frighten her a bit.
00:26:18You clearly aimed at her.
00:26:22So what?
00:26:22I can't stand seeing her cling to you.
00:26:24I'm the suitable match for you.
00:26:26Are you really going to give up
00:26:26the Murphy family support?
00:26:27All for some country bumpkin?
00:26:29Your report was nothing.
00:26:33Who really needs support?
00:26:37Reed,
00:26:38my hand hurts.
00:26:40Follow me.
00:26:44Madam,
00:26:45your trick quite well.
00:26:47But unfortunately...
00:26:50Bitch,
00:26:51don't get cocky.
00:26:52We'll see about that.
00:26:57Reed,
00:26:58I was so terrified.
00:27:00My hands feel weak.
00:27:02Would you help me?
00:27:04Had the nerve earlier?
00:27:06Risk your life.
00:27:08Unable to even hold medicine?
00:27:11He found it.
00:27:13What could I do?
00:27:14She is Miss Murphy.
00:27:16I'm merely a Turner family servant.
00:27:19Only for you.
00:27:20To anger her.
00:27:30Reed,
00:27:31gently.
00:27:33Ouch.
00:27:40Serves you right.
00:27:41Learn a lesson.
00:27:43I had no choice.
00:27:44You weren't there.
00:27:45Miss Murphy threatened.
00:27:46If I refused to be her target,
00:27:48she would harm my hospitalized brother.
00:27:50So you stood still,
00:27:52letting her aim arrows?
00:27:53Yet you returned to save me,
00:27:55even humiliating Jane publicly.
00:27:57Now they know I matter to you.
00:27:59Daring no harm.
00:28:01Precisely?
00:28:10So...
00:28:11You do it on purpose?
00:28:14You do it on purpose?
00:28:16By the way,
00:28:17I almost forgot.
00:28:18When I first met you,
00:28:19your tactics against Paige,
00:28:20Tess,
00:28:22our deal is over.
00:28:23That's not it.
00:28:24Reed,
00:28:24you've misunderstood me.
00:28:27That hurts.
00:28:32Are you okay?
00:28:34Tess,
00:28:35last time,
00:28:36you asked for my help,
00:28:37but you gave me a bug earring
00:28:39and set me up.
00:28:40How do you plan to compensate me?
00:28:43What are you doing here?
00:28:46I heard you were all at the resort,
00:28:48so I rushed over.
00:28:49Paige said the eldest brother
00:28:50has taken a liking to Tess.
00:28:51Who I take a liking to
00:28:52is none of your business.
00:28:54Reed is the head of the Turner family.
00:28:55Who you fancy?
00:28:56Obviously isn't something
00:28:57a younger brother can interfere with.
00:28:58You always set your sights too high.
00:28:59It's rare to find someone you like.
00:29:00Normally,
00:29:01as your younger brother,
00:29:02I should step aside for you.
00:29:03But I also have my eye on Tess.
00:29:05What should we do?
00:29:07Cade,
00:29:08don't forget you're a married man.
00:29:10What does that matter?
00:29:11This is how it goes
00:29:12in our certain circle.
00:29:13Now's a great chance
00:29:14since the last equestrian match
00:29:15when I lost a billion to Reed.
00:29:16So why don't this time
00:29:17we compete again?
00:29:19Making her the wager?
00:29:21That's cowardly.
00:29:23Since Lange and KG
00:29:24aren't keen to compete,
00:29:25how about
00:29:26letting me have this chance?
00:29:28How about I challenge her?
00:29:34Jane,
00:29:35long time no see.
00:29:36You're chasing after my Reed,
00:29:37aren't you?
00:29:38Brother Cade,
00:29:39you're making fun of me again.
00:29:41Reed,
00:29:41I know I was wrong.
00:29:43I shouldn't have frightened her
00:29:44on purpose earlier.
00:29:45Please forgive me.
00:29:47Seems Reed really cares
00:29:48about this little maid,
00:29:49Tess.
00:29:49He's really taken a liking to her.
00:29:51Since you know you were wrong,
00:29:53you shouldn't come pestering us anymore.
00:29:55Tess doesn't know how to ride.
00:29:57Looks like
00:29:58Reed still
00:29:59doesn't know Miss Bennett very well.
00:30:01I heard Miss Bennett
00:30:02took riding lessons
00:30:03especially
00:30:03to better serve high society.
00:30:10Don't forget your brother.
00:30:12If you win against me,
00:30:13I won't lay a finger on him.
00:30:15Otherwise,
00:30:16even if you protect him for a while,
00:30:18them his whole life,
00:30:20you'd better keep your word.
00:30:22I agree.
00:30:24No.
00:30:26Your hand hasn't healed.
00:30:27If you're worried about Jane,
00:30:29I'm here.
00:30:30She wouldn't dare touch you.
00:30:32But,
00:30:33Reed,
00:30:34can you really protect me
00:30:35for a lifetime?
00:30:40Miss Bennett,
00:30:41if you lose this contest to me,
00:30:43you must leave.
00:30:45I hope you will abide by the agreement.
00:30:48Moreover,
00:30:49I might not lose.
00:30:54not bad.
00:30:56Tess,
00:30:57how many secrets do you have?
00:31:00If Miss Murphy wants to teach me a lesson,
00:31:02I'll accept it.
00:31:03But you're a smart person.
00:31:04You should tell
00:31:05who's using you as a pawn.
00:31:07Stop trying to sow discord here.
00:31:08Let's begin.
00:31:19Let's begin.
00:31:20Jane's horsemanship?
00:31:21She's considered top tier in this circle.
00:31:23Who would have thought?
00:31:24Tess can actually keep up stride for stride.
00:31:27This gets more interesting, Tess.
00:31:30Since you provoked me,
00:31:32don't think I'll let it go easily.
00:31:39Something's wrong with the horse.
00:31:40Look,
00:31:41their horses seem to be going crazy.
00:31:45Move.
00:31:46Move.
00:32:02Don't panic.
00:32:03Grip tight with your thighs.
00:32:04Hold the reins tight.
00:32:06Paige actually tampered with the horse.
00:32:08What do we do?
00:32:09Give me your hand.
00:32:11Tess, trust me.
00:32:26Read.
00:32:28What happened?
00:32:29She's so close to me.
00:32:30Yet I don't mind her at all?
00:32:40Brother,
00:32:40all the top doctors in Jiangchang are here.
00:32:42Fang Zhenzhen is still in the emergency room.
00:32:44The Murphy family already knows.
00:32:45They're on their way here now.
00:32:46Brother,
00:32:47this time,
00:32:48dealing with the Murphy family
00:32:49will likely be hard to explain.
00:32:50And we still have
00:32:51that land project in the Southern District
00:32:52we're collaborating on.
00:32:53Saving her comes first.
00:32:54When the Murphy family arrives,
00:32:56I'll talk to them personally.
00:33:00Tess,
00:33:00how vicious you are
00:33:02to take revenge on Fang Zhenzhen.
00:33:04You'd stoop to such dirty tactics.
00:33:12Ma'am,
00:33:12what are you saying?
00:33:17Don't make a scene here.
00:33:18It was her horse that went mad.
00:33:20If it hadn't been for Reed,
00:33:21she would have been hurt too.
00:33:23Won't admit it, huh?
00:33:26I have surveillance footage here.
00:33:29Reed?
00:33:31This is the proof
00:33:31she deliberately hurt someone.
00:33:39So,
00:33:40you gave the horse a potion beforehand
00:33:42to make it go crazy.
00:33:44Tess,
00:33:45now?
00:33:46What do you have to say for yourself?
00:33:56This is a nutrition supplement.
00:33:59It can help replenish your energy.
00:34:00Drink it.
00:34:03Bitch.
00:34:04I finally got my chance.
00:34:07Copy the stable surveillance videos.
00:34:09Then wipe it.
00:34:18Read as you know.
00:34:20I'm not that evil.
00:34:22Nor stupid enough
00:34:23to act under Ma'ruan's surveillance.
00:34:25That was just a nutritional tonic
00:34:26for the horse.
00:34:33So then tell me,
00:34:34what's really going on?
00:34:36It's Madame.
00:34:37She's framing me.
00:34:39Tess,
00:34:40how dare you slander me
00:34:42with false testimony
00:34:42and make me your scapegoat?
00:34:44Where's your evidence?
00:34:46Madame,
00:34:47have you forgotten?
00:34:48The manor is under Reed's name.
00:34:50To uncover the truth.
00:34:52It's simple.
00:34:53Reed,
00:34:54with so many elite experts
00:34:55under the zoos,
00:34:56we must have someone capable
00:34:57of restoring surveillance footage.
00:35:00Find someone to repair
00:35:01Maji's surveillance right away.
00:35:03Do it quickly.
00:35:04If it was you,
00:35:05I'll hand you over to the Murphys.
00:35:13Paige,
00:35:13you tried to harm me?
00:35:15Now you'll taste your own medicine.
00:35:20Joel Dai has already had
00:35:21experts check on Seven,
00:35:22and the surveillance footage
00:35:23was intentionally cut.
00:35:24The full footage has been restored.
00:35:36What do you have to say
00:35:37for yourself now?
00:35:46So the one who slept beside me
00:35:49is a cunning freak.
00:35:55Impossible.
00:35:57This video must be fake.
00:35:59Believe me.
00:36:02Madam,
00:36:03are you suggesting
00:36:04that all staff all colluded in my act?
00:36:08Just to frame you?
00:36:12Take her away
00:36:13and hand her over
00:36:14to the Murphy family.
00:36:19Mr. Turner,
00:36:20it was my moment of weakness.
00:36:21Please save me.
00:36:23The Turner family's reputation
00:36:24can't be tarnished by this.
00:36:26Now you remember
00:36:27the family reputation?
00:36:31You can't hand me over to them.
00:36:35If this gets out,
00:36:37Zeus Group's stocks will plummet.
00:36:39If those hesitant shareholders
00:36:40withdraw investments then,
00:36:41I have a solution.
00:36:43We can satisfy the Murphy family.
00:36:55Mr. Turner,
00:36:56the incidents already happened,
00:36:58but someone must give
00:36:58Murphy family an explanation.
00:37:00Why not make her take the fall for me?
00:37:05Miss Murphy hated her.
00:37:07So if we pin it on her,
00:37:09this whole thing can be buried.
00:37:10This is the only way,
00:37:11Mr. Turner.
00:37:12What?
00:37:23Brother,
00:37:24are you truly going to hand Tess over?
00:37:27If Reed really hands me over
00:37:28to the Murphy's,
00:37:29even if I could turn things around,
00:37:30getting close to Buhan for revenge
00:37:31will be next to impossible.
00:37:32But if I step forward now,
00:37:34Paige will be on guard.
00:37:35We can't rush this.
00:37:36Let's see what choice Reed makes first.
00:37:38Brother,
00:37:38the Murphy family will be here any moment.
00:37:40Turner family's hundreds of billions in losses.
00:37:41Could it possibly be less important
00:37:42than one woman?
00:37:43Paige.
00:37:44Well done, sir.
00:37:45What kind of place
00:37:46do you take Joel Manor for?
00:37:47A cesspit of injustice?
00:37:49Or a mass grave
00:37:49for covering up wrongful killings?
00:37:55So,
00:37:55what now?
00:37:56Regarding the Murphy family,
00:37:58we absolutely must
00:37:59give them an explanation.
00:38:03Businessmen value profit.
00:38:04As long as the incentive
00:38:06is tempting enough,
00:38:06there's nothing that can't be resolved.
00:38:12Jason.
00:38:15Yes.
00:38:16Find the top doctors
00:38:17nationwide and overseas.
00:38:18To treat Jane's leg,
00:38:20give a five percentage point concession
00:38:21in cooperation with the Murphy's.
00:38:23Brother,
00:38:24isn't five percentage points too much?
00:38:26That's hundreds of billions.
00:38:31It certainly is a lot.
00:38:33Therefore,
00:38:34these losses will be deducted
00:38:35from
00:38:35your marital assets.
00:38:37Whatever falls short
00:38:37will be covered using your
00:38:39Zeus Group shares.
00:38:42It's over.
00:38:43Brother,
00:38:44that's not fair.
00:38:47Paige,
00:38:48how's that taste
00:38:49of shooting yourself in the foot?
00:38:50Not good, huh?
00:38:52Huh?
00:39:19You dare hit me?
00:39:21You cause me to lose tens of billions at once.
00:39:23Hitting you
00:39:24is letting you off
00:39:25easy.
00:39:31You seem happy.
00:39:39Read.
00:39:43I'm happy because
00:39:44the read chose me.
00:39:46If it weren't for this incident,
00:39:48I wouldn't have known
00:39:53that I mean so much to you.
00:39:55Important enough
00:39:56that I can be this close to you now.
00:39:58You suffered injustice today.
00:40:03Tell me,
00:40:04what compensation do you want?
00:40:06I want the shares allocated to Wuhan.
00:40:08Will you give them?
00:40:10Will you give them?
00:40:11Yes.
00:40:21I was joking.
00:40:23What would I do with shares?
00:40:24I don't understand company affairs anyway.
00:40:26But if the read
00:40:27would be willing to keep me by his side
00:40:28and would let me be your personal secretary,
00:40:30I'd be quite happy to.
00:40:33Agreed.
00:40:34Only by getting closer to read
00:40:36can I find dirt on Paige faster?
00:40:38No.
00:40:51Who is she?
00:40:51I've never seen any woman
00:40:53get this close to the CEO before.
00:40:54I heard she's the new CEO's secretary.
00:40:56But why would the CEO need
00:40:57so many secretaries?
00:40:58My bet?
00:40:59She's the future CEO's wife.
00:41:07This way, please.
00:41:12Ms. Bennet,
00:41:13this will be your desk.
00:41:19Jason,
00:41:20that can't be right.
00:41:21That's the chief secretary's spot.
00:41:23How could a newcomer
00:41:25handle that position?
00:41:26Harboring such hostility toward me.
00:41:28Could it be she's one of Paige's people?
00:41:29Perfect.
00:41:30I'll find out exactly how
00:41:31this pawn will be used.
00:41:33Ms. Lily,
00:41:34this is the CEO's arrangement.
00:41:39Ms. Bennet,
00:41:40the CEO usually wants common.
00:41:41A cup of Americano
00:41:41first thing in the morning.
00:41:42No sugar,
00:41:42no milk,
00:41:43with water not too hot.
00:41:44About 70% cooled.
00:41:45Just right.
00:41:45Serve it in the white set.
00:41:52Some people
00:41:54had better be careful.
00:41:55The last secretary
00:41:57was
00:41:57fired because she couldn't
00:41:59brew coffee properly.
00:42:00Moreover,
00:42:02any female staff
00:42:03entering his office
00:42:10come in.
00:42:11Just wait
00:42:12to be kicked out.
00:42:20Just leave it there.
00:42:27I'm still busy.
00:42:28Boss,
00:42:29coffee doesn't taste good
00:42:30when it's cold.
00:42:33I'm still busy.
00:42:37Satisfied?
00:42:40He
00:42:41did drink it.
00:42:51I'm new here
00:42:52and you put me in
00:42:53such an important position.
00:42:54Now I'm the target
00:42:55of everyone's criticism.
00:42:56So I have to borrow
00:42:56some authority.
00:42:57Thakai,
00:42:58don't mind it.
00:43:02In the workplace,
00:43:03capability speaks.
00:43:04If you don't want
00:43:04to be targeted,
00:43:05first prove yourself.
00:43:07Today,
00:43:08finish reading all of them.
00:43:10All of them?
00:43:11Yes.
00:43:16Wait.
00:43:19The finance department's
00:43:21quarterly reports
00:43:21are included.
00:43:22Tell me your thoughts
00:43:22after reading.
00:43:23The finance department?
00:43:24Isn't that Paige's department?
00:43:26I could take advantage
00:43:27of my position
00:43:27to investigate Paige.
00:43:34This is the project data
00:43:35for Hua Cheng Group.
00:43:35Could you please
00:43:36give it a check and sign?
00:43:37Lu's secretary,
00:43:38I'm not quite sure
00:43:38about this data.
00:43:39Could you take a look for me?
00:43:40Don't rush,
00:43:41everybody,
00:43:41one at a time.
00:43:42The issue is here.
00:43:43The base number was wrong.
00:43:45The proposal you just presented
00:43:46was truly impressive.
00:43:47The client gave their approval directly.
00:43:48They asked you come next time.
00:44:10Reed,
00:44:11what brings you here?
00:44:13I have a document
00:44:14that needs Reed's signature.
00:44:16Tess,
00:44:16being Miss Bennett's job
00:44:17must be exhausting.
00:44:18Why not consider
00:44:19becoming my secretary?
00:44:20Don't be in a hurry
00:44:21to say no to me.
00:44:22I can give you
00:44:22whatever Reed provides.
00:44:24Even if you ask me
00:44:24to get divorced,
00:44:26I...
00:44:27Miss Bennett has
00:44:28so much free time?
00:44:29Are the materials
00:44:30ready for tomorrow's
00:44:31bidding meeting?
00:44:35Looks like you've handled
00:44:35all that mess
00:44:36in the West District
00:44:37and now you have time
00:44:38to come to the AMC office
00:44:39and care about
00:44:40my personal secretary?
00:44:41Brother,
00:44:42even though this cooperation
00:44:43with the Murphys
00:44:43ran into some issues,
00:44:44I'm not so incompetent
00:44:46that I can't even handle
00:44:47such a small matter.
00:44:47In two months,
00:44:48I came here because
00:44:49there's a document.
00:45:02That requires your signature.
00:45:04Brother's newly hired secretary
00:45:05is indeed very meticulous.
00:45:06I need an assistant too.
00:45:08It's much easier.
00:45:10If you're willing.
00:45:14I can arrange it immediately.
00:45:16I think you might have
00:45:16misunderstood something.
00:45:17I was order by page.
00:45:19But now,
00:45:20I only want to be
00:45:21with the eldest Reed.
00:45:23Even as a secretary.
00:45:26Tess,
00:45:27oh,
00:45:27you're really something.
00:45:30Wait,
00:45:31don't forget your coat.
00:45:39Don't forget your coat.
00:45:40I hope Miss Bennet
00:45:41can always remember
00:45:43her duties as a secretary.
00:45:45The AMC office
00:45:46has many confidential documents.
00:45:48Not just anyone
00:45:48can come in here casually.
00:45:49He's jealous.
00:45:50Crap.
00:45:51Crap.
00:45:51Came too quick.
00:45:52My god.
00:45:52I forgot to take it out.
00:45:53Page's investigation materials
00:45:55from inside.
00:45:59Finish work for now.
00:46:01You finished?
00:46:02No.
00:46:03I trained you.
00:46:04You can do it well.
00:46:19Page.
00:46:20Tess and the Cade
00:46:21completely fell out.
00:46:22Moreover,
00:46:23I've replaced the bidding documents
00:46:24sent to the suppliers.
00:46:26Tomorrow,
00:46:26Tess is bound to cause
00:46:27a huge mess.
00:46:28Well done.
00:46:29In the future,
00:46:30Cade won't protect her anymore.
00:46:31But I never expected
00:46:32Tess could charm Reed.
00:46:34Let her host
00:46:34such an important meeting.
00:46:36She even dared
00:46:36to investigate our accounts.
00:46:38Fortunately,
00:46:38Page had the foresight
00:46:39to plug the financial
00:46:40loopholes in advance.
00:46:41The original documents
00:46:42were wiped clean.
00:46:42Rest assured, Page.
00:46:45Let's see how Tess
00:46:46gets herself out
00:46:47of this one this time.
00:46:54Who has such big face
00:46:55to make us wait so long?
00:47:06Thanks for waiting, everyone.
00:47:07I'll be chairing
00:47:08this bidding session today.
00:47:09I'll now explain to you all.
00:47:12Zeus Group
00:47:12has always put
00:47:13great emphasis on R&D.
00:47:18Next,
00:47:19I'll detail for you
00:47:20the quotes
00:47:21for this bidding session.
00:47:25The quotes aren't right.
00:47:27Someone tampered
00:47:27with the tender documents.
00:47:34Why has it stopped suddenly?
00:47:35What about the bid?
00:47:39Miss Bennett,
00:47:40this is a serious mistake.
00:47:42You might as well
00:47:43pack up and leave.
00:47:46I have a supplementary document here,
00:47:48which needs to be distributed
00:47:49to everyone first.
00:47:55As everyone knows,
00:47:56this bidding meeting
00:47:57holds significant meaning
00:47:58for the Zeus Group.
00:47:59To prevent leaks,
00:48:00a deliberate mistake
00:48:01was placed in the bidding
00:48:02documents provided earlier.
00:48:03This is the corrected version.
00:48:05For any inconvenience caused,
00:48:06the Zeus Group
00:48:07offers its sincere apologies.
00:48:08As expected of an industry leader,
00:48:09so precise.
00:48:10Good thing I attended
00:48:11the meeting today.
00:48:12Otherwise,
00:48:13we would have submitted
00:48:13an incorrect bid.
00:48:17Goodbye.
00:48:20She is quite impressive.
00:48:22Yes.
00:48:23So young,
00:48:24yet so composed.
00:48:25Led with clear thinking.
00:48:26It reminds one of
00:48:27Joshan in his prime.
00:48:30Miss Lily,
00:48:30wait a moment.
00:48:37Miss Lily,
00:48:37hold on.
00:48:39Supplementary documents.
00:48:40Keep these safe.
00:48:41And don't forget
00:48:42to file the original documents.
00:48:47We're all from
00:48:48the secretarial office,
00:48:49doing our jobs well
00:48:50benefits everyone.
00:48:52Isn't that right?
00:48:57It seems
00:48:58someone can't sit still.
00:49:00Paige,
00:49:01the more impatient you get,
00:49:03the easier it is
00:49:04to let your foxtail show.
00:49:08Not bad today.
00:49:09All thanks to
00:49:10your personal guidance.
00:49:11But I never taught you
00:49:12the confidentiality tactics
00:49:14for the True Group bidding session.
00:49:15Miss Bennett,
00:49:16your duties
00:49:17don't include covering
00:49:18for colleagues who mess up.
00:49:19But you also taught that
00:49:20business is like war.
00:49:21I'd rather keep
00:49:22Chen Jingjing this little minnow
00:49:23in the pond
00:49:24to see if there's
00:49:24a bigger whale behind her.
00:49:27As soon as possible.
00:49:28I won't let such a rotten presence
00:49:29stay long in the company.
00:49:30Also,
00:49:31give me a heads up next time.
00:49:32Got it.
00:49:33Next time something comes up for me,
00:49:35you'll be the first to know.
00:49:36I swear.
00:49:38You performed really well
00:49:39at this bidding session.
00:49:40What kind of reward
00:49:41would you like?
00:49:42Any reward I want?
00:49:45Sure.
00:49:46A Razor promotion.
00:49:48I don't want any of those.
00:49:49Could I trade this reward?
00:49:51For a day with our
00:49:52incredibly busy CEO?
00:49:53A whole day?
00:49:56Been busy these last two months,
00:49:58hardly had time alone with Reed.
00:50:00Now his guard must be down a bit.
00:50:02Need to push things
00:50:03to the next level
00:50:03while the iron is hot.
00:50:04Otherwise,
00:50:05with the Cho family's skills,
00:50:06if he really decides
00:50:07to investigate me,
00:50:08there'll be nowhere to hide.
00:50:09Okay.
00:50:16So this is the day
00:50:17you planned for me.
00:50:18Yeah.
00:50:19Look how happy they are.
00:50:20Want to go up and try it out?
00:50:23No.
00:50:30Reed.
00:50:32Relax a bit.
00:50:37I'm not nervous.
00:50:42I'm here to protect you.
00:50:43Don't be afraid.
00:50:52What fun.
00:50:53Told ya.
00:50:54It's fine as long as you relax.
00:50:57Not bad, actually.
00:51:00Sorry about that.
00:51:01I got too excited and forgot.
00:51:03You seem like
00:51:04you really enjoy
00:51:04the amusement park
00:51:05and come often.
00:51:05No.
00:51:06This is my first time here.
00:51:12After eight?
00:51:14They died.
00:51:18Reed.
00:51:19Look.
00:51:25Reed.
00:51:26I want to eat this.
00:51:28I want to eat this.
00:51:40Closed?
00:51:41So soon.
00:51:43It's fine.
00:51:44Next time.
00:51:45Who could have imagined
00:51:46there'd be another chance with her?
00:52:11It's getting late.
00:52:12Go home.
00:52:16How conceited.
00:52:17You.
00:52:18You didn't think I'd kiss you.
00:52:35Why so glum?
00:52:36Where were you yesterday?
00:52:40An amusement park.
00:52:41With whom?
00:52:43Reed.
00:52:45You know?
00:52:48Tess.
00:52:49You're not.
00:52:51Having feelings for him, right?
00:52:54We grew up together.
00:52:57I treat you like my own sister.
00:52:58I want you to be happy.
00:52:59But Reed.
00:53:00Isn't the right person for you.
00:53:02How could that be, Wes?
00:53:04I'm just using him.
00:53:06Over the years to get that bid,
00:53:08look at how much I've sacrificed.
00:53:09My resolve.
00:53:10You should know better than anyone.
00:53:11Good.
00:53:13Xiaoyi.
00:53:13Remember this.
00:53:14Once Reed discovers,
00:53:15everything you did to get close to him,
00:53:17he'll turn against you.
00:53:19I understand.
00:53:20What about my brother?
00:53:21Don't worry.
00:53:22The new convalescent home is very discreet.
00:53:24They won't find it.
00:53:28Following the financial report you gave me,
00:53:30I tracked down someone.
00:53:32I've seen this name on the bidding list.
00:53:35He's one of the representatives from Sky Group,
00:53:36the winning bidder.
00:53:38Zane was a financial supervisor at the Tsar Corporation.
00:53:40Page was his direct superior before.
00:53:41Due to a work error,
00:53:42he misrecorded 15 million yuan of company assets.
00:53:45Page helped cover it up for him.
00:53:47Page also embezzled 50 million yuan from the Tsar Corporation,
00:53:49transferring it to a personal account in three installments.
00:53:51The registered address of the receiving company
00:53:52is in the same building as Zane's hometown address.
00:53:55So Zane wasn't just Page's subordinate.
00:53:58He likely aided her economic crimes too.
00:54:00That's how it appears right now.
00:54:02Just in time for the celebration party in a few days.
00:54:04Zane will attend.
00:54:05I'll seize the moment to give him a special gift.
00:54:08Reed hopes we can cooperate smoothly.
00:54:15I'd like to propose a toast to everyone.
00:54:21This is the lady who hosted the bidding meeting the other day.
00:54:23Miss Bennett, right?
00:54:25Young, beautiful, and competent.
00:54:28You flatter me, Zane.
00:54:30From financial supervisor at Joe's group
00:54:32to vice president at Gu's group,
00:54:33Zane, your social climbing must have something to do with Wuhan.
00:54:37Page is trying to launder money through this collaboration.
00:54:40But too bad.
00:54:41I've already found your loophole.
00:54:44Miss Bennett,
00:54:46Joe's group hasn't fallen so low
00:54:47as to require you to curry favor with partners.
00:54:51Joe that I can't bear to see me drink so much.
00:54:53That's why he said that, right?
00:54:55I just don't want to drive a drunk back.
00:54:57None of your business.
00:54:59I can get back myself.
00:55:01This bitch only knows how to attract men.
00:55:09Zane, long time no see.
00:55:11Let me toast you.
00:55:15Miss Bennett,
00:55:16since Zane thinks so highly of you,
00:55:18maybe you should have a few more drinks with him.
00:55:21Zane's a letcher.
00:55:22She wants to embarrass me.
00:55:24But luckily,
00:55:25Reed's here.
00:55:26Not only won't I be embarrassed,
00:55:28I can even use this chance to get closer to him.
00:55:31Lily,
00:55:32you better not let me down.
00:55:38Thanks for the recognition.
00:55:39Let me toast you again.
00:55:46Miss Bennett really holds her liquor well.
00:55:47Another round.
00:55:48Miss Bennett isn't seeing anyone yet.
00:55:50If she gets too drunk,
00:55:51no one's coming to pick her up.
00:55:53What's the problem?
00:55:54Since Miss Bennett's had too much,
00:55:55I'll personally see her home.
00:55:56Miss Bennett?
00:55:57No need for formalities.
00:55:58This round should be my toast to you.
00:56:05Let's see how much longer you can hold out.
00:56:24Miss Bennett can't handle anymore.
00:56:28Mr. Zark?
00:56:29Since Miss Bennett's had a few,
00:56:31perhaps you should take her home?
00:56:38Had enough?
00:56:43Reed.
00:56:44My head is spinning.
00:56:53Starting today,
00:56:54all companies under the Zeus Group
00:56:55will terminate any collaboration with the Sky Group.
00:56:58Please calm down.
00:56:59I genuinely didn't know Miss Bennett was affiliated with you.
00:57:01It's not worth escalating this minor issue.
00:57:02Also, you are to resign voluntarily through HR.
00:57:04I don't want to see you at the office tomorrow.
00:57:06I'm sorry.
00:57:07Please give me another chance.
00:57:14This is all your fault?
00:57:15You're facing a career blacklist industry-wide.
00:57:18Manager Zhang, believe me,
00:57:20I truly knew nothing about this.
00:57:27How is he still moving?
00:57:31Brother,
00:57:32I just discovered something today.
00:57:33Tess is getting close to you with ulterior motives.
00:57:36Stay out of matters that don't concern you.
00:57:38Don't rush off.
00:57:40If you don't trust Kate's words,
00:57:41you should at least see this.
00:57:43Someone sent something to our house.
00:57:45About Tess.
00:57:50Tess.
00:57:51Her past.
00:57:54Would you like to see it, brother?
00:57:55What past is it?
00:57:57What did she find?
00:58:03What?
00:58:04The contract didn't get signed.
00:58:06It's this little sweetheart ruining my plans again.
00:58:08Who are you on the phone with?
00:58:10Honey, it's about a project.
00:58:12I couldn't close the deal.
00:58:13And I'm venting at the staff.
00:58:15Your package.
00:58:15The maid brought it up.
00:58:19The private detective I hired this time
00:58:21is actually somewhat useful.
00:58:23Just wait until I show brother your true colors.
00:58:25You're nothing.
00:58:28If brother truly rejects Tess over her past,
00:58:30rejects her,
00:58:31it would be a perfect opportunity for me.
00:58:33Has Paige uncovered my identity?
00:58:36No.
00:58:36He can't know yet.
00:58:40I feel awful.
00:58:45Don't bother picking it up.
00:58:47What kind of person she is,
00:58:48I'll see for myself.
00:58:50I don't need anyone telling me.
00:58:52Brother.
00:58:52She's using you.
00:58:54Paige.
00:58:55You're insulting my intelligence here.
00:58:59If anyone can use me,
00:59:00it's because I'm willing myself.
00:59:12Still acting up even when drunk.
00:59:19His trust
00:59:20was gained through my pretending.
00:59:22The longer I stay by his side,
00:59:23the riskier it gets.
00:59:23I must obtain leverage against Paige
00:59:25as soon as possible
00:59:25and send her to prison.
00:59:26You should sleep.
00:59:32In such tense circumstances last night,
00:59:34I actually fell asleep.
00:59:35Since when?
00:59:37Have I lowered my guard against him so much?
00:59:43Miss Bennet.
00:59:44Here's breakfast arranged for you by Sir.
00:59:46Sir said you have stomach issues.
00:59:47And you drank?
00:59:48So,
00:59:49the side dishes shouldn't be too salty.
00:59:50He even remembers that?
01:00:01Who told you to prepare food for her?
01:00:03What status does she have?
01:00:05Deserves to eat in the Turner family's dining room?
01:00:09Madam,
01:00:10it was the eldest Reed,
01:00:11who specifically ordered
01:00:12that they prepare breakfast for me.
01:00:14Last night,
01:00:15it was
01:00:15the eldest Reed who carried me back all the way.
01:00:18Now tell me,
01:00:18what status do I hold?
01:00:28Who do you think you are?
01:00:29You dare put on airs in front of me?
01:00:32When did he arrive?
01:00:34Hearing now?
01:00:36Mrs.
01:00:36I only want to focus on my tasks as an intern.
01:00:39If I'm such a bother to you,
01:00:40I'll leave.
01:00:42Huh?
01:00:43Can't handle the truth?
01:00:45The elder brother let you play secretary for a few days.
01:00:47Just for a novelty.
01:00:48I advise you to remember your place.
01:00:51You're not in charge here.
01:00:54Oh?
01:00:55She can't hold the reins in this house.
01:00:57Surely not you?
01:00:59Brother.
01:01:01From now on,
01:01:02her meals shall be as per my standing.
01:01:04Yes.
01:01:05Brother.
01:01:06She is your future sister-in-law.
01:01:08Mind your word.
01:01:24What did he mean by that?
01:01:27This is the Zeus Group,
01:01:28the remaining bidding partner companies.
01:01:29Which company do you think is suitable?
01:01:31Reed.
01:01:31This is a multi-billion dollar project.
01:01:33You're asking a secretary like me?
01:01:35Isn't that inappropriate?
01:01:36As Dekai's secretary,
01:01:37the project you're responsible for,
01:01:38it's reasonable to get your input.
01:01:41Shengdeng Motors,
01:01:42ranked second in the bidding,
01:01:43has a smaller scale than Sky Group,
01:01:44but with strong technical reserves.
01:01:46It just lacks funding in channels.
01:01:47Another company,
01:01:48Hua Xing Group,
01:01:48ranked third.
01:01:49They're fully certified and secure to work with,
01:01:50but with low profit margins.
01:01:51Also,
01:01:52they have a habit of underbidding.
01:01:53If you want stability,
01:01:53they're the safe choice.
01:01:54But if you're looking at the long-term future,
01:01:56Shengdeng has more potential.
01:01:56Well done.
01:01:57Your time at the bidding meetings didn't go to waste.
01:01:59Miss Bennett,
01:02:00have you ever thought
01:02:00that you might actually be more capable
01:02:02than you realize?
01:02:03Really?
01:02:04Have you ever considered
01:02:05not limiting yourself to one position?
01:02:07Perhaps you could have a broader future.
01:02:10A broader future?
01:02:12No rush.
01:02:13Take your time to think it over.
01:02:14But for now,
01:02:15let's focus on making next week's annual event a success.
01:02:17Mmm.
01:02:18Oh, Reed,
01:02:18I'd like to add one person
01:02:20to this year's guest list.
01:02:22Who?
01:02:24You'll see then.
01:02:34Brother,
01:02:35I've been really busy lately.
01:02:36It's been ages since I visited you.
01:02:38You're not mad at me, are you?
01:02:41I met someone.
01:02:43He can be incredibly annoying,
01:02:45cold as ice.
01:02:46Every word cuts like a knife.
01:02:48He never gives anyone a friendly look.
01:02:50But despite all that,
01:02:51he showed me absolute trust.
01:02:53All right.
01:02:54Clock out.
01:02:55You finished reading?
01:02:56No.
01:02:57I trained you personally.
01:02:58You have the potential.
01:03:01No need to pick it up.
01:03:02I'll figure out who she is myself.
01:03:07Even he risked his life to protect me.
01:03:10Give me your hand.
01:03:13Bro,
01:03:13I think I might like him.
01:03:15But,
01:03:17do I deserve to have genuine affection?
01:03:20Of course.
01:03:21You're the best.
01:03:28You must get better soon, please.
01:03:32You're all I have left now.
01:03:43You're all I have left now.
01:03:45Here you are.
01:03:52The annual meeting officially begins in 15 minutes.
01:03:54Everyone,
01:03:55perform a final check.
01:03:57Copy.
01:04:06The show is over.
01:04:08Who are we pretending to be intimate for now?
01:04:15This must be Miss Murphy?
01:04:16I heard she fell off a horse earlier,
01:04:17and hurt her leg.
01:04:18She's still undergoing treatment.
01:04:20Why has she come?
01:04:21Miss Murphy,
01:04:21on behalf of Zeus Group,
01:04:22I thank you for your presence.
01:04:23Everything's arranged, right?
01:04:25Today,
01:04:25we must make that little darling suffer disgrace.
01:04:28Rest assured,
01:04:30things are proceeding smoothly.
01:04:31You'll be even more thankful to me later.
01:04:34The stage is all set.
01:04:35Please take your seats in the front row.
01:04:43Good evening, everyone.
01:04:45Welcome to Zeus Group's annual gala.
01:04:47Over the past year,
01:04:48Zeus Group has deeply committed to the new energy industry,
01:04:50achieving remarkable results through hard work,
01:04:52which also relies on the strong support of our partners.
01:04:54Here,
01:04:55I sincerely represent Zeus Group
01:04:56to express my deepest gratitude to you all.
01:05:00Next,
01:05:01please enjoy the dinner entirely.
01:05:02Have a great time.
01:05:07Wait a moment.
01:05:08Hold on.
01:05:10There's one thing.
01:05:11I'd like Miss Bennett to account for herself in front of everyone,
01:05:14and give an explanation to all.
01:05:30This is the annual meeting.
01:05:31What are you up to now?
01:05:32I'm not causing trouble.
01:05:33You just wait.
01:05:34I have a plan to get our shares back.
01:05:38Everyone knows.
01:05:39Miss Murphy was injured.
01:05:42Today she's attending.
01:05:44She wants to use this occasion
01:05:46to get justice for herself.
01:05:47What does she mean?
01:05:48Is there more to Miss Murphy's injury?
01:05:53My secretary here,
01:05:55Miss Bennett.
01:05:56Miss Murphy's leg get injured.
01:05:58But since someone was covering it up,
01:06:00this matter
01:06:00was swept under the rug.
01:06:02Miss Bennett?
01:06:04She doesn't seem like someone so vicious.
01:06:06I heard Miss Lily was expelled
01:06:07because of her.
01:06:09Did Miss Bennett try to harm Miss Murphy
01:06:10so she could climb the corporate ladder?
01:06:12The Murphys have already tracked down your brother.
01:06:14You should take the blame.
01:06:16Otherwise,
01:06:18don't you know
01:06:19one leverage can only be used once?
01:06:22What do you mean by that?
01:06:23I'm saying
01:06:24you are done.
01:06:29As it happens,
01:06:31Miss Murphy is here today.
01:06:32Rather than letting everyone speculate wildly,
01:06:34it's better for her to tell everyone herself.
01:06:38How could
01:06:39her leg actually be healed?
01:06:45Sir,
01:06:46I found it.
01:06:47Miss Murphy was invited
01:06:48to attend the annual meeting.
01:06:50But before that,
01:06:51Miss Bennett also visited Miss Murphy.
01:06:52And more than once,
01:06:54she hid it deeper
01:06:56than I expected.
01:06:58Director,
01:06:58if we let them keep causing trouble,
01:07:00regardless of who wins,
01:07:01our stock price will be affected.
01:07:03So,
01:07:03since she wants to win this round,
01:07:05then let her.
01:07:06As for the stock price,
01:07:07I have another plan.
01:07:09Miss Murphy,
01:07:10you tell everyone
01:07:10that it was Tess
01:07:11who tampered with the horse.
01:07:12She harmed you.
01:07:14Previously,
01:07:15protecting Paige
01:07:15was because she is still part of the Turner family,
01:07:17considering the Turner family's reputation.
01:07:18But she shows no remorse,
01:07:19repeatedly crossing my bottom line.
01:07:20It's time she took a fall.
01:07:22Of course.
01:07:22I absolutely will not spare anyone
01:07:24who tries to harm me.
01:07:29I came here today indeed
01:07:31to seek justice.
01:07:32But this isn't for Tess.
01:07:33But for Paige.
01:07:35It was Paige who caused my injury.
01:07:36She shifted the blame
01:07:37onto Miss Bennett.
01:07:38I have surveillance footage.
01:07:40I will give it to the police.
01:07:42Our Murphy family
01:07:43will never let Paige off either.
01:07:49You're making a fool of yourself.
01:07:56All right, that's enough.
01:07:59This concludes today's company party.
01:08:01What remains is the Turner family matter.
01:08:03We will handle it.
01:08:05Please take your leave now.
01:08:19Paige.
01:08:20I want a divorce.
01:08:21What did you say?
01:08:23Since you're the one primarily at fault,
01:08:25the Turner family's assets,
01:08:26you're not to get a single penny of it.
01:08:28Our lawyer will handle the rest.
01:08:33Cade, what do you mean?
01:08:35After all these years
01:08:36slaving away for the Zeus group,
01:08:38you think just tossing out,
01:08:39divorce will cut me off?
01:08:42Think whatever you want.
01:08:43I'm set on this divorce.
01:08:46Cade, stop right there.
01:08:48Let me tell you something.
01:08:49I'll never agree to a divorce.
01:08:55Eldest brother, I know I was wrong.
01:08:57Please talk Cade around.
01:08:59If we divorce now,
01:09:00the Zeus group's stock will definitely plummet.
01:09:03You're begging the wrong person.
01:09:04From the moment you caused that trouble,
01:09:05you stopped being a Turner family member.
01:09:07Fine.
01:09:08So the Turner family's burning its bridges.
01:09:10Do you really think Tess
01:09:11is some shining example of goodness?
01:09:13Let me tell you this, Reed.
01:09:15She got close to you.
01:09:17Sully to use you.
01:09:18Don't believe me?
01:09:19Ask her yourself.
01:09:20Dare she claim she has no ulterior motives
01:09:21toward your family?
01:09:27Tess.
01:09:28Tell me.
01:09:29Is what she said true?
01:09:31What do you want from me?
01:09:34Yes.
01:09:35I deliberately got close to you
01:09:36to lure you in
01:09:37and scheme against you step by step.
01:09:39Reed.
01:09:39She's not wrong.
01:09:41I am a bad woman.
01:09:44See?
01:09:44She admitted it herself.
01:09:47There's nothing wrong with admitting that.
01:09:49Paige?
01:09:50Do you remember the
01:09:52Howard family 18 years ago?
01:09:54Do you remember Danny?
01:09:55You, you are actually
01:09:59You lured my dad out,
01:10:00causing my family to fall apart?
01:10:02I lost everything.
01:10:03My brother was sick.
01:10:05I came to get revenge on you.
01:10:07It's only right and proper.
01:10:10I deliberately come to the Turner family.
01:10:16Just to make you lose everything.
01:10:19You.
01:10:19What happened to your family?
01:10:21Because your dad brought all this on himself.
01:10:25He brought this all on himself.
01:10:27Brother.
01:10:28She admitted it.
01:10:29Why haven't you detained her yet?
01:10:32Paige, it was clearly your fault.
01:10:37Thank you for your honesty.
01:10:39But
01:10:41I've known these things all along.
01:10:44You.
01:10:44You knew.
01:10:45When did you figure it out?
01:10:47Did you think I was dumb?
01:10:48Finding a few clues wasn't hard.
01:10:49Your hatred for Sean.
01:10:51Your targeting.
01:10:52All that made me wary.
01:10:53With the Zeus Group's resources,
01:10:55digging up such small details would have been easy.
01:10:57Then why didn't you call me out?
01:10:59Tess.
01:10:59I told you.
01:11:01I'm not that foolish.
01:11:02If I knew why but didn't expose you,
01:11:04of course it's because
01:11:05I'm willing to be used by you.
01:11:07Because I like you.
01:11:10Remember what I told you before?
01:11:12Don't get stuck in just one role.
01:11:13You can have a much bigger future.
01:11:15Tess.
01:11:15Your life
01:11:16shouldn't just be about revenge.
01:11:19Reed.
01:11:20You'd actually go this far?
01:11:22For her?
01:11:24Send her off to the safety bureau?
01:11:29Thanks for speaking up for me just now.
01:11:31But I...
01:11:31Tess.
01:11:32I'm serious.
01:11:38I've had this ring ready for a long time.
01:11:40If you're willing to marry me,
01:11:42I...
01:11:44I don't want to.
01:11:45Reed, we're just not suited.
01:11:47Just forget it.
01:11:50Break up.
01:11:53Before, I was the one trailing after you.
01:11:55Like a lovesick puppy.
01:11:56Never thought you'd...
01:11:57Have your day like this.
01:11:59I feel way better now.
01:12:02Why are you here today?
01:12:04Hmm.
01:12:04I won't tell you.
01:12:05Let you stay.
01:12:08Guessing.
01:12:09Fine, fine.
01:12:10On account of us being childhood friends all these years,
01:12:12I'll go fish for some info for you, alright?
01:12:21Tess.
01:12:22I helped you out big time.
01:12:23But you didn't even treat me to a meal after you left.
01:12:25What do you want to eat?
01:12:27I would be happy with you,
01:12:28but I'm afraid I already have plans today.
01:12:30If you don't mind,
01:12:31I'll make it up another time.
01:12:33Plans?
01:12:33Then join us.
01:12:34I've been lying in a hospital bed for months,
01:12:36and I'm bored to death.
01:12:38Get in now.
01:12:46Mr. He.
01:12:47Are we really just letting Ms. Bennett leave like this?
01:12:49She'll be back.
01:12:51Then, the hospital's abroad.
01:12:52Are we still proceeding?
01:12:53Yes.
01:12:54Contact the experts,
01:12:55and send the specific medical records.
01:12:56At the same time,
01:12:57increase investment.
01:12:58Make sure they work quickly.
01:12:59To develop a treatment plan.
01:13:00Do we need to tell Ms. Bennett?
01:13:02No.
01:13:05We'll tell her when we have results.
01:13:14Tess.
01:13:14Since when do you have such a handsome friend?
01:13:16Oh wow,
01:13:16he's exactly my type.
01:13:17If I had met him earlier,
01:13:18I couldn't be bothered chasing Reed.
01:13:20Jane.
01:13:21He's the neighbor's older brother I've grown up playing with.
01:13:23Wes Wes,
01:13:24this is Jane.
01:13:25Jane.
01:13:36Don't worry, Wes.
01:13:37She's not a bad person at heart.
01:13:39Oh.
01:13:40Sending secret messages talking trash about me.
01:13:44I sided with Paige before,
01:13:45only because my family brainwashed me,
01:13:47making me think I was hopelessly stuck being Reed's wife.
01:13:49I believed her poisonous lies.
01:13:50But later,
01:13:51during those months lying in the hospital bed,
01:13:53Tess often came to visit me,
01:13:54and I finally came to my senses.
01:13:55With so many guys out there,
01:13:56why must I hang myself on that one tree,
01:13:58being Paige's puppet?
01:13:59No wonder you suddenly decided to help Xiaoyi,
01:14:00and became friends with her.
01:14:01Exactly.
01:14:02Since Paige schemes against me,
01:14:03I'll make sure she gets a taste of her own medicine.
01:14:05With Paige now lost the zoo's protection,
01:14:07and you've got evidence of her economic crimes,
01:14:10plus the surveillance video I have,
01:14:11we can easily put her behind bars.
01:14:12No.
01:14:13For the economic crime,
01:14:14she can pin it all on Zane.
01:14:15And the attempt on my life
01:14:16could only be charged as attempted murder.
01:14:17She'd only serve a few years.
01:14:19It's too light a punishment for her.
01:14:20What should we do?
01:14:21She ruined me so badly.
01:14:23I must make her pay.
01:14:24Back then,
01:14:24I thought my leg would be permanently injured.
01:14:26Those were miserable days.
01:14:27But don't be hasty.
01:14:30People with no way out.
01:14:31are most prone to reckless extremes.
01:14:34She'll get her comeuppance.
01:14:35Xiaoyi,
01:14:36the news says Reed was in a car accident.
01:14:37And he's in critical care at the hospital now.
01:14:47Tess,
01:14:48I heard about what happened between you and Paige.
01:14:49Just heard it.
01:14:50When you were just using Johau to get revenge,
01:14:52I thought,
01:14:53I still had a chance.
01:14:57But just moments ago,
01:14:58you rushed into the ward,
01:14:59clutching his hand and refusing to let go,
01:15:00and I knew I've missed my chance.
01:15:02Cade,
01:15:04before...
01:15:04Don't speak of such things.
01:15:05I too have done many despicable things in the past.
01:15:07Ever since childhood,
01:15:08I envy Johau for being the heir to the Turner family.
01:15:10Envied how extraordinarily capable he was.
01:15:11But since he's had this accident,
01:15:12and I've taken over the responsibilities,
01:15:13I understand fully how difficult it is to run a company.
01:15:15And as for Paige,
01:15:16it was also me misjudging people.
01:15:19My eldest brother is in your hands now.
01:15:21Please take good care of him.
01:15:25Tess.
01:15:31Mom.
01:15:32Don't go.
01:15:33So this is how fragile he could be, huh?
01:15:44Don't go.
01:15:51Since you're awake,
01:15:52I'll take my leave now.
01:15:57Tess?
01:15:59What are you thinking?
01:16:01You think I'm drawn to your facade?
01:16:04That our meeting was somehow wrong?
01:16:06Even
01:16:08plotting how to leave me?
01:16:09What you don't realize
01:16:10is how deeply special you are to me.
01:16:13I'm sorry.
01:16:15If I had known earlier...
01:16:16I'd wish you'd threaten me sooner.
01:16:18Then we could have been honest from the start.
01:16:20See?
01:16:21My misogyny doesn't work on you.
01:16:24Both my body
01:16:25and my heart
01:16:26willingly submit to you.
01:16:28You scoundrel.
01:16:31Aren't you bothered by my cunning?
01:16:33Not worried that someday
01:16:34I might use the same tactics against you
01:16:36that I used on Wuhan?
01:16:37I know about your ambitions
01:16:38that you've been using me from the very beginning,
01:16:40but none of that matters to me.
01:16:41In fact, I quite like it.
01:16:43Tess,
01:16:44stay by my side,
01:16:45stand on my shoulders,
01:16:46and rise higher.
01:16:51Tess,
01:16:52we're late.
01:16:55Why didn't you tell me you'd recovered?
01:17:00It was your brother-in-law.
01:17:01He assembled a special medical team
01:17:03and recently
01:17:04visited my sanatorium
01:17:05to study my condition,
01:17:06curing me completely.
01:17:10Well,
01:17:11looks like
01:17:11you knew about this too.
01:17:13I'm not the mole.
01:17:15He begged me for a long time
01:17:16to give him your brother's
01:17:17sanatorium location,
01:17:19saying he wanted to surprise you.
01:17:23You're not mad,
01:17:24are you?
01:17:29Thank you, Reed.
01:17:31This has been
01:17:32my happiest day in 10 years.
01:17:34Stacy,
01:17:35I'm not the mole всю
01:17:42You
