00:00Did you want to see me go bankrupt? Did you want to see my family's business ruined?
00:05So I deserve to be sent to another man's bed? That is rape! And you, Chase, you are a disgusting
00:10accomplice!
00:11Quinn! Don't make it sound so ugly. What's done is done. What do you want me to do now?
00:16If I had any other choice, I would have never told-
00:18I don't want to hear your excuses. After what happened, I can't live with you anymore.
00:22This time you sent me to another man's bed for profit. Who knows if next time you'll try to kill
00:25me for money.
00:25Have it your way. You want a divorce? Fine. You can deal with my parents yourself.
00:29And you will be held fully responsible for any financial losses my company suffers because of this divorce.
00:33I must have been completely blind to have loved such a shameless Coundrel.
00:37He is the one who committed an unforgivable crime, yet he speaks as if I should be grateful to him
00:42for not divorcing me.
00:43Besides, you know how powerful Julian is. Since you're already with him, if you just play your cards right and
00:48stay with him, your whole life would be set.
00:50Wouldn't that be a good thing?
00:56I am your wife. How can you say something so inhuman and shameless?
01:01But I never thought of you as my wife.
01:04We're just plunking care-
01:05Don't touch me!
01:06What are you yelling about?
01:08At that moment, I realized with absolute horror that I couldn't bear his touch. The mere thought of him being
01:15close to me made me sick to my stomach.
01:18A divorce. I'll talk to my parents myself. I'm sure they will support my decision when they find out what
01:23kind of monster you are.
01:25You can't tell them!
01:26I still want to be with Rosina. If her parents find out that I sent Quinn to another man's bed,
01:30I'll be completely ruined.
01:32Fine. Then come with me right now and sign the papers.
01:36I can't divorce you right now.
01:39Rosie was right. There are too many financial interests tied up right now. I cannot get a divorce at this
01:44critical moment.
01:46Then when?
01:48Let me make some arrangements. Quinn, don't be impulsive and don't tell my parents or it won't be good for
01:54either of us.
01:54You don't want everyone to know about this and gossip about you, do you?
01:58Give me a date. A week? Ten days? How long are you going to drag this out?
02:01I can't say for sure.
02:03I will give you ten days. Otherwise, I'm not afraid of the shame.
02:07I am the victim and you are the one who should be shamed.
02:10If you don't agree to a divorce, I will tell everyone everything!
02:13What do you hope to gain from that? I said I'll divorce you!
02:17But I need time to protect my assets so the company isn't affected. Can't you just give me some time?
02:25She's throwing up? Did she just throw up because of me?
02:31Quinn? Are you okay?
02:33In that painful moment, I knew I would probably be repulsed by any man's touch from now on.
02:38The trauma of last night had completely shattered me, turning into an insurmountable physical barrier.
02:48Are you okay? You look terrible. Should I take you to the hospital?
02:52Stay away from me or I'll really be sick.
02:56Quinn, don't be like this. Tell me what I can do to make you forgive me.
03:00A divorce. Chase, let's end this with some dignity.
03:04Otherwise, it will get ugly for everyone.
03:06I'm used to being adored by women, especially Quinn, who used to obey my every word.
03:11How dare she give me the cold shoulder like this?
03:13Fine! Let's divorce! Don't you regret it!
03:16Let's go do it right now.
03:18I don't have my papers today. Some other day!
03:20Not some other day. Tomorrow. 8.30. At the courthouse. I'll be waiting.
03:26Fine.
03:28Lucy, you said you knew a really good lawyer. Can you give me her number?
03:32This is the Lee Hwin going smoothly.
03:34BS1, Quinn.
03:35Take a lawyer as at her land. I've been easing a money using my Bonnie one.
03:38Only dog that hard for blanding you.
03:41Hello, Quinn.
03:42Lucy gave me a brief brief on the phone.
03:44What kind of trouble are you facing?
03:46If it's about a divorce, although that's not my main practice,
03:48I can certainly refer you to the top div lawyers in the city.
03:52No, it's not about the divorce.
03:53There is something else I wanted to ask you.
03:56I want to know if, in a certain situation, if I were to call the police or sue,
04:01what are the chances the other party would be convicted?
04:04What exactly happened?
04:11Before we begin, can you keep everything we talk about absolutely confidential?
04:22You have my professional word.
04:23As a lawyer, whatever you say in this room today will remain strictly confidential.
04:30I've been a practicing lawyer for eight years and have heard all kinds of absurd and shocking stories.
04:35But Quinn's story still shocked and disgustes me to the core.
04:39Being sent to another man's bed by her own husband for business interests is simply monstrous.
04:44You said this man is rich and powerful in this city.
04:48So, who is he?
04:50His name is...
04:54Julian Sterling.
04:57What?
04:58A big shot, right?
05:00You know him too?
05:02This is impossible.
05:04Quinn, are you absolutely sure you're not mistaken?
05:07I saw him with my own eyes when I woke up.
05:09I was completely naked and he was standing right there.
05:14And I have some fragmented memories.
05:17It was definitely him.
05:18I couldn't be mistaken.
05:19But I find that incredibly hard to believe.
05:22Maybe his public image is just a highly successful act.
05:25The first time I saw him, I thought he was noble, aloofed, and gentlemanly.
05:28I never thought he would be such a beast behind closed doors.
05:32If that is indeed the case, I will help you.
05:39What concrete evidence do you have?
05:43I...
05:43I searched online.
05:45It said I needed to preserve bodily fluids, but there was nothing on me.
05:49How could there be nothing?
05:50When I woke up, my body was perfectly clean.
05:53I suspect he might have given me a bath while I was unconscious.
05:56So, there is no physical evidence left.
05:59It is already exceptionally difficult for women to win sexual assault cases.
06:02Without any direct physical evidence, proving it in court is nearly impossible.
06:06But I have this.
06:07I secretly recorded my conversation with Chase today.
06:09He admitted to sending me there.
06:10Can this be used as evidence?
06:12It can be submitted, but its weight is extremely weak.
06:15In court, such isolated recordings are easily dismissed as admissible.
06:23Why?
06:24First, you need Chase's cooperation.
06:26If he denies it in court, claiming you coerced or manipulated him into saying those things,
06:29the credibility of your recording pummets.
06:30Second, Julian's elite legal team can easily argue that you and Chase, as husband and wife,
06:33conspired to frame him for financial extortion.
06:35But, so there is absolutely no chance of winning?
06:39To be honest, against someone of Julian's stature, a single recording won't be enough to convict him.
06:43On the contrary, his legal team will tear you to shreds and might even countersue you for criminal defamation,
06:48which could land you in prison.
06:49Is there really no hope at all?
06:51Hearing her desperate voice as a Newman simply sympathy with a bajic situation,
06:55but as a professional lawyer, I have to make him pelt reality.
06:58Perhaps you could sue him for civil emotional distress, Swiss, or seek mental damage to repensation instead.
07:03That might be a more realistic...
07:04I want his money, Veronica.
07:05I want him behind bars.
07:06I want him to face justice.
07:08Then I can tell you frankly, no lawyer in this city would dare to take your case.
07:11Even if I wanted to help you, our chances of winning are virtually zero.
07:15Then what can I do to make him confess?
07:16If what you say is true and this isn't his first time...
07:19Do you think the other victims were all willing?
07:21Of course not.
07:22Do you think none of them tried to sue him?
07:24Surely they did.
07:26But in the end, they were all quietly silenced and settled.
07:29Just because he is rich and powerful, he is allowed to stand above the law and do whatever he wants?
07:33Quinn, Lucy told me you are her best friend, which is why I'm being completely frank with you.
07:37This world is full of injustice.
07:39Once you experience more, you will see even crueler realities.
07:47Then what is the point of the law?
07:49Are ordinary people like us just supposed to endure their bullying and stay silent?
07:53Quinn, I am so sorry.
07:55As frustrated as I am, this is the reality.
07:58I cannot help you win this in a court of law.
08:00Lucy said you are the best and most righteous lawyer in the city.
08:03If even you won't help me, what am I supposed to do?
08:06Who can I turn to?
08:08Looking at this girl crying so helplessly.
08:11Even as a woman, my heart softens.
08:14My sense of justice simply won't allow me to walk away completely.
08:20If you are absolutely determined to go after him, even with zero chance of winning in court,
08:23I am willing to represent you.
08:24But we will have to try a different approach.
08:26Public opinion.
08:27We might not get him convicted, but we can at least drag his name through the mud and destroy his
08:31reputation.
08:33Public opinion?
08:34Yes.
08:34Society naturally sympathizes with the underdog.
08:36We can use social media and coordinate with some influential bloggers to expose this.
08:39But that means you will have to tear your own wounds open and stand completely exposed before the public.
08:43Like, Julian will face a crisis, but you will also be skinned live by the public's judgment.
08:46Are you prepared for that?
08:52Society sympathizes with the underdog, but there are also many people who are inherently biased against women.
08:56They'll say you're seeking attention, trying to climb the social ladder.
09:01They might say you threw yourself at him because he's rich and powerful and now you're trying to sue him.
09:05The things they'll say could be much, much worse.
09:08I know.
09:09I want to sue him, considered making...
09:11There are also many people who are inherently biased against women.
09:13They'll say you're seeking attention, trying to climb the social ladder.
09:18They might say you threw yourself at him because he's rich and powerful and now you're trying to sue him.
09:22The things they'll say could be much, much worse.
09:24I know.
09:25I want to sue him, considered making it a public spectacle.
09:28Think about it.
09:30If you decide to go to the police, the sooner the better.
09:36Okay, I'll think about it.
09:39Thank you so much for today.
09:40I didn't do much.
09:41Let me know what you decide.
09:45It was Julian's yacht.
09:47How could I ever get back on board?
09:49How could Julian do something like that?
09:53He was cold.
09:55But he was a gentleman.
09:58Quinn was in debt a great beauty.
10:00But with Julian's status, he could have any woman he wanted.
10:04Women threw themselves at him.
10:06And he never bit.
10:07And Quinn said he was a repeat offender.
10:10Was his public eye me really all just an act?
10:12To what do I owe the pleasure?
10:15Julian, I have a few questions for you.
10:17I need you to answer them honestly.
10:20What questions?
10:21What did you do to Quinn Lane on the yacht yesterday?
10:25You know her?
10:25I have a meeting soon.
10:27Answer my question first.
10:29What did you do yesterday?
10:32Julian, Quinn is going to sue you.
10:34And I'm her lawyer.
10:36Then you shouldn't have made this call.
10:39Veronica, what about your professional ethics?
10:41I'm not calling to take your side or to tip you off.
10:44I'm calling to say that if you really did do something to her, I will not let our family
10:48lines get in the way.
10:50I will help her.
10:52Laughs.
10:54If I did, you would defend her, even against me?
10:57Yes.
10:57Lo.
10:58She said that just because you're rich and powerful doesn't mean you're above the law.
11:01She's speaking up for herself.
11:02I admire her courage.
11:04Even knowing she's up against you, she's not backing down.
11:11Veronica, your father was trying to acquire a new energy project, wasn't he?
11:15How much more investment does he need?
11:17What do you mean?
11:18Are you trying to bribe me?
11:20It won't work.
11:21You know me.
11:21No.
11:22It's a reward.
11:23I'll contact your father.
11:24Whatever he needs, I'll invest unconditionally.
11:26Don't think that just because you do this, I'll...
11:27And then set up a meeting for me with Quinn.
11:29She probably won't see me, so you'll have to arrange it.
11:31I think there's been a misunderstanding.
11:32A misunderstanding?
11:33How can they be a misunderstanding about something like this?
11:36I'll explain to her in person.
11:37This afternoon, at noon, you can be there.
11:40We'll have lunch together.
11:41Fine.
11:42Since I can be there to protect her.
11:44If you want to meet her alone, I'll never agree.
11:46Twelve o'clock, I'll arrange it.
11:47Quinn, how are you today?
11:49I'm so worried about you.
11:51Fine.
11:52Don't worry about me.
11:53I can handle my own problems.
11:54How can I not worry?
11:56After what happened, you must be heartbroken and feel so ashamed.
11:59After all, something like that is so disgraceful.
12:02Are you done?
12:02I'm not heartbroken and I'm not ashamed.
12:04I'm not the one who should be disgraced.
12:06Don't say these things to me anymore.
12:08They don't affect me.
12:09Quinn, what do you mean?
12:10I'm just concerned about you.
12:11How can you misunderstand me like this?
12:13You know whether it's a misunderstanding or not.
12:16That's all.
12:17Don't contact me unless you have something important to say.
12:28Veronica.
12:33Seeing this young girl walk in makes me feel an unbearable ache in my heart.
12:37I'm so used to deception in the court now, but I only want to protect her.
12:41Yet, I wonder if the truth I'm about to reveal would only shatter her all over again.
12:46Sorry to keep you waiting.
12:50Quinn, come in and sit down.
12:53I just got here too.
12:54Quinn, before we discuss the details, I want to confirm one more time.
12:57The man you saw when you woke up, was it really Julian?
13:00Not someone who just looks like him?
13:01I wouldn't mistake him.
13:02It's not just his face.
13:04His entire presence has a unique, suffocating power.
13:06I could never mistake it.
13:08All right, then I won't hide it from you, Quinn.
13:11Julian and I are cousins.
13:12Cousins?
13:13Julian Sterling is her cousin?
13:14It feels as if frozen in an instant.
13:15The one lawyer I trusted?
13:16The one sister Lucy looked up to shares the same blood as the monster who ruined me.
13:20What am I to them?
13:20A prey walking straight into a trap?
13:22His mother and my mother are half-sisters.
13:24He's my cousin.
13:26But don't worry.
13:27I promise to help you and I will never take his side just because of family.
13:30Veronica, I didn't know.
13:32If this makes things difficult for you, I can find another lawyer.
13:34Trust me, in the entire industry, no other lawyer would dare touch his case.
13:38I stand for justice, not family.
13:41If Julian really did something so monstrous, once we get the evidence, I will personally
13:45see him put behind bars.
13:51She speaks with such conviction, but my heart feels weighed down by a massive stone.
13:55Julian's power is limitless.
13:56If we go to court, how much pressure will Veronica face from her family?
14:00How can I let her turn against her own blood just for an outsider like me?
14:03Lucy, do you trust me?
14:05Lucy recommended you.
14:07I trust you.
14:09So, are Lucy and Julian related too?
14:12Yes, we share the same grandfather.
14:14Lucy is his cousin too.
14:16Dear God, Lucy is his cousin too.
14:18Lucy is my only warm haber in this storm.
14:20How can I seek revenge against her family?
14:22Is my justice destined to destroy the one friendship I cherish more than life itself?
14:27Quinn, don't feel burdened.
14:29If Lucy knew the truth, she would make the same choice I did.
14:31We cannot shield a criminal just because he's family.
14:35I know.
14:38But there's one more thing I must apologize for.
14:42I've arranged for Julian to meet us.
14:45He'll be here soon.
14:47What?
14:48Meet him?
14:48Here?
14:49Now?
14:50No.
14:50No.
14:51The memory of that dark room, the weight of his body, it's all rushing back.
14:54I can't breathe.
14:55I have to run.
14:56I must get out of here right now.
14:58Quinn!
14:58Quinn, listen to me first.
15:02I don't want to see him.
15:04I don't want to see him!
15:08Quinn, what's wrong?
15:09You're shaking.
15:10Veronica, let me go!
15:12Please, I don't want to see him!
15:14I'm sorry, Veronica, today!
15:16Just pretend it never happened!
15:18Pretend you never met me!
15:20Quinn!
15:21Okay, we won't see him!
15:23Don't be scared!
15:23She ran away so resolutely, her eyes guarded and full of betrayal.
15:26Is it because I brought Julian here without asking her?
15:29Or is it because she can never truly trust a lawyer carrying the Sterling family blood?
15:32I pushed her too hard, forgetting that she is a deeply wounded, frightened soul.
15:36I am the one who drove her away.
15:42I'm so sorry, I'm sorry!
15:54Why did she leave?
15:56You're here.
15:57You saw her.
15:58She didn't want to see you, so she left.
16:00That wasn't me.
16:01What?
16:03It was a setup.
16:04Chase sent her to Maddox's room.
16:05I got there before anything happened.
16:06Maddox didn't touch her.
16:07Is that so?
16:08But that doesn't line up with what Quinn told me.
16:10She remembers exactly what you did to her.
16:11Julian, answer me honestly.
16:12Did you violate her physically against her will or not?
16:16You did, didn't you?
16:18You did something you're too ashamed to admit.
16:22I'll explain it to her myself.
16:24Quinn, listen to me.
16:25Julian says it was all a misunderstanding.
16:27Your husband sent you to Maddox's bed, and Julian got there to save you before Maddox...
16:30So he just finished what Maddox didn't get to do, right?
16:34Quinn, I don't know the details.
16:36But I trust Julian's character.
16:38Would you be willing to give him a chance to explain?
16:41So that's how it is, Veronica.
16:43You trust his character.
16:46But I trust my own eyes more.
16:48Veronica, I understand your position.
16:50I respect your professionalism.
16:52I believe you'd stand for what's right.
16:53But this matter ends here.
16:55I'm accepting my fate.
16:56Please tell Julian not to come looking for me.
16:58For the rest of my life, I never want to see him again.
17:01Stop looking for her.
17:02She said this ends here, and she never wants to see you again.
17:05Julian, you broke her.
17:06I barely mentioned your name just now, and she started shaking physically.
17:09She is traumatized.
17:12Why does this always happen to me?
17:25Is Lucy home yet?
17:27Lucy!
17:28Is she always this careless and unguarded?
17:30Opening the door for anyone while dressed like this.
17:32I was in such a rush.
17:34If Lucy were back, she would have texted me beforehand.
17:36Besides, Lucy knows the passcode.
17:37She would never knock.
17:38The man standing right in front of me is the very monster I despise and fear the most.
17:45I've heard that trying to bring down someone of his immense power is like throwing myself against a brick wall.
17:50Mr. Sterling, what exactly do you think you're doing?
17:53Breaking into someone's home?
17:58Let's talk about what happened on the yacht last night.
18:02Wasn't what happened on the yacht bad and disgusting enough?
18:07I think you've misunderstood.
18:09Misunderstood?
18:10Are you trying to say you didn't humiliate me?
18:13That you didn't rape me?
18:15May I come in?
18:15I promise it will only take a few minutes.
18:18No.
18:19If you don't leave right now, I'm calling the police.
18:22Good.
18:23At least you know how to protect your rights.
18:30If having the police here would make you feel safer, go ahead and call them.
18:34I don't mind.
18:36Do you believe me now?
18:38You're telling me to call the police?
18:39How ridiculous.
18:41Right, someone who would leave the lock, your immense power, wouldn't be afraid of the police ordinary people.
18:44Reality quickly proved me wrong.
18:46What rights do I really have against someone like Julian?
18:48The law always seems to favor men of his status.
18:52No one humiliated you last night.
18:53If you're referring to the hug and the kiss, then I apologize.
18:57Wait outside.
18:58Her misunderstanding of me is deeper than I thought.
19:00If I had really taken her last night with her fragile frame, she wouldn't even have been able to get
19:04out of bed.
19:06But she walked off that yacht so easily today.
19:12What's wrong with your body?
19:14Do you need me to take you to the hospital for...
19:16Nothing happened on that yacht.
19:18Quinn, aside from hugging and kissing you, I did not do anything else.
19:23Before last night, you've never had any experience in that area, have you?
19:28What exactly are you trying to say?
19:30Don't push your luck!
19:32Zeke said Chase never touched her.
19:34Looking at her sensitive reaction, it seems true.
19:38She is an untouched canvas.
19:44Looking at her trembling shoulders, my heart swells with complex emotions.
19:47On one hand, I feel a deep ache for what she went through over the past three years.
19:51I always assumed she was living a happy life, but Chaser had been in love with someone else,
19:54leaving her untouched and neglected for three whole years.
19:57But on the other hand, I cannot deny that a small, shameful sense of relief and quiet satisfaction serves inside
20:02me.
20:02It is selfish, but I stop it.
20:04I just want you to know one thing.
20:06Nothing actually happened between us.
20:07If hugging and kissing count as crossing the line, fine, I'll admit to that.
20:11But anything beyond that, I didn't do it, and I won't take the blame for it.
20:16You mean...
20:16I'll explain exactly what happened that night.
20:18You might feel uncomfortable hearing it, but it's the only way to clear my name.
20:22When I got to the room, Maddox was trying to take your clothes off.
20:24Since we were out on the water and couldn't get to a hospital, I had the yacht head for shore
20:28and called my private doctor.
20:29During that time, you were unconscious and highly affected by the drug.
20:33Because of that, there was indeed some physical contact between us.
20:36I wasn't in my right mind.
20:38What about you?
20:38I was perfectly aware of what I was doing, but I am still a normal man.
20:42If that's the case, should I thank you for saving me?
20:44Then why did you lock me in that room instead of letting me leave?
20:46My mistake was staying with you and taking advantage of your state.
20:49But if you want to call the police, contact that level wouldn't be enough to get me charged with anything.
20:53How do I know you're not lying to me?
21:00Deep down, I know someone of his status wouldn't bother lying about this.
21:03Besides, I know my own body.
21:04I have never been with a man, and if something had really happened, my body wouldn't be completely foul.
21:08Which means, he didn't sleep with me.
21:09Do you need me to explain what physical reactions women usually experience after actually sleeping with a man?
21:14Shut up!
21:15You shameless!
21:17If I did it, I would admit it.
21:19But I didn't.
21:21If you call the police anyway, wouldn't that be quite unfair to me?
21:24You might not believe me now, but someday, when you have a real sex life, you'll...
21:30Shut up!
21:32She really is far too easy to fluster.
21:34I believe he didn't lie.
21:35But every time those fragmented memories resurface, my body still tensens up with discomfort.
21:40The Julian in front of me is cold, elegant, and untouchable.
21:42Yet in those broken flashes, his palms were burning hot, and his kisses were desperate, and...
21:46These two extremes are tearing my thoughts apart.
21:48And worse, why are those blurry memories starting to become clearer and clearer?
21:56Although the misunderstanding was cleared and I learned I wasn't violated,
21:58Last night's shadow is still like a thorn, buried deep in my heart.
22:02The moment I close my eyes, the burning heat of Julian's palm and that suffocatingly intense kiss flash back to
22:07me.
22:07Compared to Julian, the person I truly hate to the bone is Chase.
22:11How could he treat me like an object and hand me over to another man so shamelessly?
22:15The mere sound of his voice makes me nauseous.
22:18Even the thought of having any physical intimacy with him in the future makes my stomach churn.
22:22Once the divorce is finalized, I'll just live on my own.
22:26Since I instinctively recoil at physical touch from men now,
22:30Living alone might actually be the most suitable life for me.
22:34I consulted Veronica before.
22:36She said Chase's behavior is morally disgusting, but it's hard to prosecute in court.
22:40Without direct evidence that he drugged me, my testimony alone won't be enough.
22:45Trying to put him in prison is even harder than accusing Julia.
22:48But I don't want to spend another single day in this twisted, filthy marriage.
22:59Quinn, you're here.
23:00Perfect timing.
23:02Come in and join us for dinner.
23:04What brings you home today?
23:06I know mom is still upset with me.
23:08A while ago, she asked me to sew an embroidered pillow for Rosanna.
23:10I refused because I had to prepare for the design competition.
23:13Although I stayed up all night to finish it and sent it over later,
23:15she still feels I don't care about my sister.
23:17Dad, mom, I came back today because there's something important I need to talk to you about.
23:21What is it that's so serious?
23:23Let's eat first.
23:24We can talk while we eat.
23:25If I bring up the divorce now, we probably won't even be able to finish this dinner.
23:32Let's talk after dinner.
23:33Mom, let me help you.
23:34It's only a little over a month until the holidays.
23:36I wonder if Rosanna will be able to come back this year.
23:39That poor child is all alone abroad with no one to rely on.
23:41It breaks my heart.
23:42All right.
23:43She went to further her studies.
23:44Stop worrying so much all day long.
23:46How can I not worry?
23:47If it weren't for some people, would my older have to go some way to Suffro?
23:50If you wouldn't really need reflect.
23:51If your cis man hadn't gave a herse opportunity to you,
23:53with your qualification, you really think you could datch into the Sterling family,
23:56Tama 4, and Adazima?
23:57All right.
23:57That's all in the past.
23:58Why bring it up again?
24:00Chase is a good kid, but our Quinn is wonderful too.
24:04Are you trying to contradict me on purpose to make me angry?
24:08All right.
24:09All right.
24:09I'll drop it.
24:10Let's just eat.
24:11Let's eat.
24:15Let's eat.
24:16Let's eat.
24:24Let's eat.
24:48What did you say?
24:50Say that again.
24:52What's going on?
24:53If there's something to discuss, talk about it calmly.
24:55Why are you shouting?
24:56Ask your wonderful daughter.
24:57She just told me herself that she wants a divorce.
25:01Quinn, what on earth is going on?
25:03Is this something you can just throw around?
25:05Yes, Dad, Mom.
25:06I want a divorce.
25:08Young people these days are simply lawless.
25:10Do you treat marriage as a joke?
25:12Getting married on a worm and divorcing just like that?
25:14Your mother is right.
25:15How can marriage be treated so carefully?
25:17If our relatives, friends at school find, oh, my daughter got a divorce, where are we
25:21supposed to hide our faces?
25:23The only thing they care about is their own reputation and the relationship between the
25:26two families.
25:27But from beginning to end, not a single person has asked me why I want a divorce.
25:36Dad, Mom.
25:38Do you not even want to ask why I want a divorce?
25:40Why does it matter?
25:41In a marriage, who doesn't bump heads once in a while?
25:44Your mother and I have argued our whole lives and we've still made it through.
25:47Look for the reasons in yourself first and stop throwing about the word divorce all the
25:51time.
25:51I think your life is just too comfortable and you're starting to make a fuss out of nothing.
25:55A man like Chase with such a good family background and a successful career choosing
25:58you would make you feel lucky.
26:00You don't cherish it.
26:01You simply don't know how blessed you are.
26:03He doesn't love me and I don't have any feelings for him anymore.
26:06Continuing this marriage is just torture for both of us.
26:08Feelings?
26:09Can feelings put food on the table?
26:11Marriage is about living a stable life.
26:13Listen to me.
26:13Have a child as soon as possible.
26:15Once you have a baby, a man's heart will naturally come back and life will settle down.
26:18Mom, I'm not being dramatic.
26:20I truly can't live with him anymore.
26:21I know divorce is not something to be proud of, but for the sake of my own happiness,
26:26I hope you can support me just this once.
26:27Happiness?
26:28Not worrying about food and clothes, living with dignity, that is happiness.
26:31Since childhood, my academic results were clearly much better than Rosia's and the awards
26:35and trophies I brought home filled an entire drawer.
26:37Yet, the only certificates hanging on our living room wall were Rosia's mediocre ones.
26:41When Rosia failed, my parents would comfort her gently, saying a single exam doesn't
26:44determine the future.
26:45But no matter how many scholarships I won, it was always taken for granted, without
26:49even a word of praise.
26:50Their hearts are biased.
26:51No matter how hard I try, I can never warm them up, because I am not their biological daughter
26:55after all.
26:55Mom, if Roselly were the one standing in front of you today saying she wanted a divorce,
26:59would you use the same words to persuade and blame her?
27:02Your sister isn't even married yet, and you're already cursing her here?
27:07What kind of intentions?
27:08If it weren't for your sister going abroad back then, would Chaser have married you?
27:12You got the better end of the deal, and now you're acting ungrateful, even wanting a
27:16divorce.
27:17Are you even worthy of your sister?
27:27Indeed, Rosalie is their own flesh and blood.
27:29Even though they raised me for over 20 years, the chasm of blood relations is still impassable.
27:34In their eyes, I will always be an outsider.
27:38I only came back today to inform you not to ask for your permission.
27:42Since you don't care whether I live or die, or whether I am happy, then I don't need to
27:46compromise myself just to protect your reputation anymore.
27:50You ungrateful rat!
27:52We raised you for so many years, and you talked to us with this attitude?
27:55You heartless thing!
27:56I'll ask you one last time.
27:57Do you really not want to know what Chase actually did to me?
27:59What could he have done?
28:00Isn't it just a man socializing and playing along with some work events?
28:03He makes good money, so what's wrong with a little socializing?
28:06A lifeful should be magnanerent and understanding.
28:09You're acting like a resentful woman all day along.
28:12Look for the problem in yourself first.
28:14When your sister gets married, her the hopefully mean to be hundred life and you're inspecting.
28:24Quinn!
28:24Did you just go to mom and dad's place?
28:26What exactly did you tell them?
28:28I'm not even in the country, and yet you're already making them angry back home.
28:32Are you doing this on purpose?
28:34I only told them that I'm divorcing Chase.
28:37Nothing else.
28:39Are you out of your mind?
28:40Why would you take something like this to bother mom and dad?
28:43What's wrong with Chase?
28:44Even if he's busy and a bit cold to you, can't you reflect on yourself and improve so you become
28:49someone worth loving?
28:50Throwing around divorce at the drop of a hat, you're being far too dramatic.
28:54They truly are a family.
28:56Even the script they use to blame me is exactly the same.
29:06Yes, I am simply not good enough for him.
29:08That's why I'm stepping down voluntarily so I won't hold back his bright future.
29:11You...
29:11Stop talking in anger.
29:12I'm doing this for your own good.
29:14I absolutely cannot let them get divorced at this time.
29:16I finally managed to hook Julian Sterling a real catch.
29:19My plan is in its most crucial stage, and it cannot be ruined by a family scandal.
29:23If the Sterling family finds out I have a divorced sister, my value will be severely diminished.
29:26Although Julian's tone sounds a bit cold, the fact that he asked means he has me in his heart.
29:32I need to add some fuel to the fire.
29:35Quinn, be realistic.
29:36If you leave Chase, where are you going to find a man with such excellent conditions?
29:39His family, his looks, his social status.
29:42Want you divorced, you'll completely depreciate.
29:44If a husband who, for the sake of profit, personally sent his own wife to another man's bed was offered
29:50to you, would you want him?
29:52We haven't talked about this before.
29:53Chase was also Fortress Joiner.
29:54He didn't do it on purpose.
29:56Lay wet there, Chase doesn't mind, and generously forgiven you.
29:58You're still witting here.
30:00You bet I'm Dan Janilus.
30:01You will never know how much the needle hurts until it prooks your own skin.
30:04Rosalie, if you were the one, could you forgive him?
30:05This assumption is pointless, because such a thing could never happen to me.
30:09Yes, Chase made a mistake, but don't you have any responsibility?
30:12If you were outstanding and charming enough to hold his heart, would he have had the heart to hand you
30:16over to someone else?
30:17Fine, I admit I am useless.
30:18Didn't he like you back then?
30:19Since you think he is perfect, why don't you marry him yourself?
30:22What nonsense are you talking?
30:23What would people think of me if they heard this?
30:24I would never steal my sister's husband.
30:26That was the real reason I chose to go abroad back then.
30:29Don't be so ungrateful.
30:30Chase, no matter what, you absolutely cannot agree to a divorce.
30:33Rosina, I think too.
30:35Divorce at Junctureby will twill yet enche either means stir the sterlings you met.
30:39Then he's low goom when they want it easily.
30:45Then why don't you quickly go apologize to Quinn?
30:48I know her character best.
30:50She is very soft-hearted.
30:52Buy some flowers, say some nice words to coke her.
30:54After going through that, it's normal for her to feel hurt.
30:57Suffer a little grievance, get through this crisis, there's plenty of time to deal with-
31:00Rosine, you really understand me best.
31:02Don't worry, I, Chase, swear that I only have you in my heart.
31:05My marrying her and treating her well was all for you.
31:08Chase, don't say that.
31:09We were just not meant to be.
31:11Just consider it my debt to you in this life.
31:13If there is a next life, I will surely make it up to you.
31:16Rosalie, don't cry.
31:17You don't owe me anything.
31:18As long as it's what you want, I will ditch and get it done.
31:21Who is it?
31:23Quinn, it's me.
31:25Open the door.
31:26Quinn, this is for you.
31:28Is there something?
31:30I came all this way to give you flowers.
31:32Aren't you going to invite me in to sit?
31:33I personally humbled myself to bring her flowers.
31:35With her usual humble and submissive attitude, she should be crying tears of gratitude and throwing herself into my arms
31:40now, right?
31:45Quinn, I know I haven't paid enough attention to you in the past, but don't worry.
31:49I'll make it up from now on, and we will live like a normal married couple.
31:52Don't you love flowers the most?
31:54I'll send them to you every day from now on.
31:55Thank you, but I don't need them.
31:57Whether it's your goodwill or your flowers, they both make me sick.
32:00Let me repeat this for the last time.
32:01I am not joking about wanting a divorce.
32:03Divorce?
32:04You think marriage is just a game of house?
32:06The company is at a critical right now.
32:08If a scandal leaks, at this time the crowbus will fluctuate violently.
32:12Competitors will pounce like wolves.
32:15If the company goes bankrupt, can you afford to bear that resonability?
32:18We can settle the divorce quietly and keep it private.
32:21As long as you cooperate, I will even leave with absolutely nothing.
32:23I won't take a single penny from your family.
32:25Keep it private?
32:26No wall on earth is completely windproof.
32:27How could a thing like this possibly be kept secret?
32:30Chase, is there something wrong with your head?
32:31You personally sent your legal wife to another man's bed,
32:34and now you actually expect me to keep playing the loving wife with you?
32:37Do you think that is even possible?
32:38I said I was forced into a corner.
32:40Why do you have to keep holding on to this?
32:41Perfectly fine?
32:42You ruined my entire life!
32:44And you expect to turn the page with a simple forced into a corner?
32:48You're dreaming.
32:49Then what do you want?
32:50Name your price.
32:51How much money do you want?
32:52I only want a divorce.
32:53If you don't agree, that's fine.
32:55I will expose everything that happened on the yacht last night to the public.
32:58I'd like to see which deals ahead of your company a vague rumor of divorce,
33:00or a shocking scandal personally delivered his wife to be violated that will doom your family forever!
33:04Are you out of your mind?
33:05If you don't care about your reputation, I still care about mine!
33:08If you spread this kind of thing, how will you ever face the world again?
33:11Everyone will point fingers at your back and call you a filthy, ruined woman!
33:15And who caused all of this?
33:17I have a clear conscience.
33:18You are the one who did wrong,
33:19and you should be the one whose reputation is ruined and who ends up in prison.
33:22Quinn, we've been husband and wife for three years after all.
33:25Didn't you marry me in the first place just to live a stable life?
33:27I promise you, I will treat you well on from style,
33:29and never run you suffer the smiced way for you.
33:36You stubborn, obstinate woman!
33:38What on earth does divorcing me buy you?
33:39The greatest benefit is that it gets me as far away from a piece of trash like you as possible.
33:44Fine!
33:45You want a divorce, right?
33:46Fine.
33:47But you must agree to one condition of mine.
33:49Not leave sides of the yacht on the dustway,
33:51launching that bass and Maddox his Roshan,
33:52but stretch my lop of contact and behind my back Quinn.
33:55Did last door rent acts private you?
33:57Who?
33:58Contacted me?
33:59What kind of filthy garbage is your brain filled with?
34:02You've already slept with him.
34:03Wouldn't he give you some compensation?
34:05Stop acting.
34:06What kind of terms did he offer you that made you so eager to dump me?
34:09If I could go back to the past,
34:10I would truly want to stab my foolish past self to death.
34:13No matter what,
34:14he took advantage of you last night.
34:16We can't let him off spillish.
34:17Since it has already happened,
34:19we have to find a way to minimize the losses.
34:21And if he did contact me,
34:22what do you want to do?
34:23If he didn't,
34:24what then?
34:25If he contacted you,
34:26how much compensation did he say he'd give you?
34:28If he didn't,
34:28then even better.
34:29I'll go with you to find him tomorrow.
34:30He slept with my wife for nothing.
34:32He must compensate our losses
34:33and sign that major project over to us.
34:35You want to use your wife
34:36to barter for your family's wealth and prosperity?
34:38How can you call that bartering?
34:39This is reasonable compensation for mental anguish-ish.
34:41As a woman,
34:42you can't just let someone take advantage of you for nothing, right?
34:44Getting the money will also secure your future life.
34:47I'm doing this for the good of both our families.
34:53Get out.
34:54What kind of attitude is this?
34:55I am trying to secure benefits for you.
34:57Listen carefully.
34:58I am giving you eight days to sign the papers.
35:02After eight days,
35:03if I don't have the divorce certificate,
35:05your family scandal will be on the front page
35:07of every media outlets.
35:08If you don't believe me,
35:10you are welcome to try.
35:11Quinn!
35:12Open the door!
35:13You bitch!
35:14How dare you!
35:15What are you doing?
35:16Who are you?
35:17Let me go!
35:18Do you know who I am?
35:19Let go!
35:27Ace!
35:27What is going on?
35:28Quinn just sent me a bizarre message
35:30saying she's going to expose everything.
35:32Didn't you go to persuade her?
35:33Persuade her?
35:34That woman won't listen to reason now
35:36whether I use a soft or hard approach!
35:39I humbly brought her flowers
35:41and begged for her forgiveness
35:42but she wouldn't even let me in!
35:44Bodyguards?
35:46Where did they come from?
35:47Who else could it be but Maddox?
35:50It must be because Maddox
35:51got a taste of sweetness
35:53on the yacht last night
35:54and now he can't get that woman
35:56out of his mind!
35:57Maddox would actually fancy
35:59someone like Quinn?
36:01Although Maddox,
36:01the Sturly Divin primary Acevedge heir
36:03he is still reethin
36:04a Viso Zavri through
36:05you can really find.
36:07He has canted
36:08the all kind of stunning beauties
36:09waysome he would be interest
36:10like there were in
36:11Quinn peewee'd arrayed you nooses.
36:13Maybe
36:14because Quinn had never been
36:15with a man before
36:16and last night was her first time.
36:18Men always have a special complex
36:19about that kind of thing.
36:20Besides
36:21Quinn Deet has a face
36:22designed to seduce men.
36:23She is indeed
36:24quite adept at attracting men.
36:26Since we were kids
36:27boys always loved
36:28to swarm around her.
36:29Unlike me,
36:30my personality is too honest
36:32and I don't know
36:33how to please men at all.
36:34How can she compare to you?
36:36She is just superficial.
36:37How can she compare
36:38to your nobility,
36:39elegance,
36:40gentleness and kindness?
36:41She doesn't even match
36:42a single strand of your hair.
36:44Alright,
36:44stop being so sweet talking.
36:46Do we do now?
36:52How should I know?
36:53Right now Maddox is hiding.
36:54He won't answer calls
36:55and can't be found.
36:56If he is truly backing Quinn
36:57I might have to divorce her
36:58whether I want to or not.
36:59Don't panic yet.
37:00I'll get someone to ask around
37:01and see what on earth
37:02Maddox is up to.
37:03Did he see through
37:04my little tricks?
37:06Or is he truly too busy?
37:08No,
37:09I must return to the country
37:10as soon as possible
37:11to firmly secure
37:12my position
37:12as Mrs. Julian Stanling.
37:14As for Maddox's side,
37:15I have to ask around
37:16through my circle
37:17of wealthy friends
37:18back home.
37:19What?
37:20Maddox has been exiled
37:21to Africa?
37:22Is that real or fake?
37:24Then those two bodyguards
37:25guarding Quinn's door?
37:27Whose men are they?
37:28You absolutely cannot sign
37:29the divorce papers
37:30at this time.
37:31The loss to you
37:31would be too immense.
37:32Your company,
37:33public opinion,
37:34your reputation,
37:35any one of those
37:35could utterly ruin you.
37:36But what can he's
37:37completely supported
37:38by my dad right now?
37:38I can't handle
37:39this kind of situation
37:40at all!
37:40Rosalie,
37:41think of something
37:41for me fast.
37:43Quinn's stubborn head
37:43is simply acting this way
37:44because she feels
37:45you hurt her
37:45and has lost
37:45all trust in you.
37:46Since that is the case,
37:47if we can make her
37:48rely on you again
37:49or get a definitive
37:50hold over her,
37:51she will never have
37:51the right to bring up
37:52divorce again.
37:53The plan is simple.
37:54You just need to
37:55orchestrate an opportunity
37:57for her to lose
37:57her innocence once more.
37:59And this time,
38:00the person who rescues her
38:01must be you.
38:09Lucy?
38:10Darling!
38:11You're finally awake!
38:13Come and eat breakfast!
38:14I bought your favorite
38:15shredded chicken noodles!
38:17In this cold
38:17and cruel world,
38:19only Lucy is my family,
38:20the one who truly cares
38:21for and protects me.
38:23I'm so sorry, Quinn.
38:25I was too busy lately
38:26and couldn't be by your side
38:27letting you suffer
38:28such great uches.
38:29That bastard Chase!
38:31I will absolutely
38:32run him off the food!
38:33Silly girl,
38:33how can you blame yourself?
38:36Just having you back
38:37to keep me company
38:38makes me so happy.
38:39From now on,
38:40we will stay away
38:41from the garbage
38:41and start a new life.
38:43Yes!
38:44Stay away from the garbage
38:45and start a new life.
38:48Come on,
38:49eat while it's hot.
38:50Shameless!
38:51Despicable!
38:52How can be such
38:52an unprinzled
38:53and narrow in this?
38:54I'll call Veronica
38:55right now.
38:56Even it bankrupt me.
38:57I'll bond you
38:57in any suit.
38:58Rin like a bastard's reputation.
38:59Lucy,
38:59don't trouble Veronica.
39:00She handles so many
39:01major cases every day
39:02and Julian's cousin after all.
39:04I want to resolve this
39:05using my own strength.
39:06You are just too kind,
39:08always thinking
39:09of others first.
39:10Don't worry.
39:11From now on,
39:12he won't be able
39:12to harm me
39:13even a single bit.
39:14Quinn,
39:16you won't blame me, right?
39:18Blame you?
39:18Why do you ask that?
39:20Because
39:21I hid my family background
39:23from you all this time.
39:24I didn't expect
39:25that the demon
39:26who hurt you
39:26would actually
39:27be my cousin's brother.
39:29If I had told you sooner,
39:31maybe none of this
39:31would have happened.
39:32No matter what your background is
39:34or whose sister you are,
39:35you are my one
39:36and only best friend.
39:38That will never change.
39:40Of course!
39:41We are best friends for life!
39:43Huh?
39:44What's wrong?
39:45Where is that
39:46Sean the Jeep
39:46plush pillow I bought?
39:47The one I said
39:48was exactly like
39:49your personality.
39:50Why is it gone?
39:51I clearly remember
39:51leaving it on the sofa.
39:54I'm not too sure either.
39:56Did you casually
39:57leave it in the bedroom?
39:58Maybe.
39:59Forget it.
40:00I won't look for it anymore.
40:01I'll buy another pair
40:02some other day.
40:03One for each of us.
40:09Quinn,
40:10today I'll toast you
40:11with tea instead of wine
40:12to offer my apologies.
40:14As a lawyer,
40:15I felt very un-Ozzy
40:16about not being able
40:16to help you win
40:17that legal battle back then.
40:18Veronica,
40:18please don't say that.
40:20Although it was
40:20a misunderstanding,
40:21the professional advice
40:22you gave me
40:22was a huge help.
40:24Oh, can you two
40:25stop being so polite?
40:26One is my dear cousin,
40:27the other is my best friend.
40:29We are all
40:29on the same team here.
40:31Cheers!
40:32Cheers!
40:33Cheers!
40:34Cheers!
40:38Excuse me,
40:38I need to step out
40:39to take a work call.
40:40Oh, what a rare guest.
40:42How does such a busy man
40:43have time to call me today?
40:45Which restaurant
40:46are you having lunch at?
40:48What do you mean by that?
40:50Don't tell me
40:51you want to crash our lunch.
40:52You're usually so busy
40:53you don't even have time
40:54to eat with during New Gorchers,
40:55so what kind of act do you today?
40:57I am almost there.
40:58If you are the one
40:58who actively invites me,
41:00I think I will find
41:00easier to accept...
41:01Julian, tell me the truth.
41:02What exactly is your attitude
41:03towards Quinn?
41:05I'm warning you,
41:06she is Lucy's best friend
41:07and she isn't even divorced yet.
41:09Don't you dare
41:09do anything reckless.
41:10I am just going to have a meal
41:11and see a friend along the way.
41:12You are overthinking.
41:13It had better be
41:14that I am overthinking.
41:16Quinn is a good girl.
41:17She has just been
41:17through a terrible ordeal
41:18with that trash chase
41:19and is extremely fragile right now.
41:21Don't you dare
41:21scare her away.
41:22I have already
41:23entered the lobby.
41:24Find a reasonable excuse
41:25to explain my presence.
41:27This Julian is truly
41:28so overbearing
41:29and unreasonable,
41:30just like he was
41:30when we were kids.
41:31He has always avoided
41:32women like the plague
41:33without a single female
41:34presence around him,
41:35yet now he actually
41:36delivers himself to the door
41:37just to have lunch with Quinn.
41:38What on earth
41:39is he trying to do?
41:41He even threw
41:42the difficult task
41:42of explaining it to me.
41:43How am I supposed
41:44to explain this to Quinn?
41:46Um, Quinn, Lucy,
41:47there is something
41:48I need to warn you
41:49about beforehand.
41:50In a moment,
41:52Julian is coming over too.
41:54I need to thank God's
41:55Well, you know,
41:56You're listening
41:57However,
