00:00:10Help me.
00:00:12Sir, this isn't appropriate.
00:00:14Change it yourself.
00:00:17Clara, with a body like this and a reaction like that,
00:00:20how could I ever be willing to let anyone else touch you?
00:00:26Mr. Cole, I have a boyfriend.
00:00:28Please show some respect.
00:00:30Tonight is the Cole Group Annual Gala.
00:00:32The boss gave special permission to bring family.
00:00:35Everyone who made it in here is a big deal.
00:00:36Maybe I should just go back first?
00:00:39Don't be afraid.
00:00:40You're my girlfriend now.
00:00:41You'll be seeing more and more of these occasions in the future.
00:00:43I don't know how to do all that small talk.
00:00:45You don't have to.
00:00:46Just offer a toast and smile.
00:00:48That's enough.
00:00:53Mr. Cole, it's an honor to finally meet you.
00:00:55This is my girlfriend, Clara.
00:00:56I brought her along tonight to see how the world works.
00:00:59Hello, Mr. Cole.
00:01:00Are you having fun?
00:01:02I'm sorry.
00:01:04I really didn't mean to.
00:01:07There's a spare shirt in the lounge.
00:01:09I'm borrowing your girlfriend for a moment.
00:01:12Of course.
00:01:13It was her fault anyway.
00:01:14It's only right that she helps you change.
00:01:16Clara, go on.
00:01:17Don't keep Mr. Cole waiting.
00:01:20Follow me.
00:01:24Mr. Cole, I have a boyfriend.
00:01:26Please show some respect.
00:01:31But I don't feel like he treats you like a girlfriend.
00:01:33Let me go.
00:01:36You pervert!
00:01:42After all these years, you haven't changed a bit.
00:01:46Why are you out already?
00:01:47Are you okay?
00:01:48Mr. Cole didn't give you a hard time, did you?
00:01:52I want to go back.
00:01:54Right now.
00:01:56Why are you so pale?
00:01:57What on earth happened?
00:01:58It's nothing.
00:02:01All right, all right.
00:02:02I won't ask.
00:02:03Didn't you say you were still hungry?
00:02:05It's your birthday today.
00:02:07I booked that high-end restaurant you love.
00:02:09Let's go now.
00:02:26Clara, the big boss from headquarters is dropping in tomorrow,
00:02:29and he specifically asked for you to receive him.
00:02:31Get there early, and don't screw this up.
00:02:33Me?
00:02:35Supervider, I'm just a junior secretary.
00:02:37Are you sure there's no mistake?
00:02:38It's you, no mistake.
00:02:39Don't ask him any questions.
00:02:41Just do as you're told.
00:02:43Being hand-picked by Hempersu Hacker Hand Headquarters
00:02:45is an opportunity others would kill for.
00:02:48You are lucky.
00:03:02Baby, happy birthday.
00:03:04Where's my gift?
00:03:08Clara, didn't we agree to save up for a down payment on a house?
00:03:11You've always wanted to come to this restaurant,
00:03:13and we've already spent quite a bit tonight.
00:03:15So, for this year's gift, let me owe you one, okay?
00:03:18I see.
00:03:20That's fine, I guess.
00:03:22So, Mr. Cole from the Cole Group, are you two close?
00:03:27I guess you could say that.
00:03:28We were college classmates.
00:03:30Five years ago, he was suddenly brought back by the Cole family,
00:03:32heard he was the long-lost, legitimate accreer.
00:03:35Now, he basically runs the entire group.
00:03:37No wonder.
00:03:38Don't keep thinking about what happened today.
00:03:40A man like him makes millions of dollars every minute.
00:03:43He wouldn't give you a second thought, let alone remember you.
00:03:45We won't cross paths again.
00:03:48Come on, it's your birthday.
00:03:50You just need to be happy, okay?
00:03:54Okay.
00:04:08Five years.
00:04:09I've been watching and waiting, only for it to end up being a man like this.
00:04:12In business, I've always been fast, ruthless, and precise.
00:04:19But when it comes to taking you back, I'm going to take my time, inch by inch.
00:04:23Whoever touches you, I'll make sure they let go.
00:04:30Listen up, everyone.
00:04:32Today is the CEO's first visit to this branch.
00:04:35If anyone screws up, you can pack your bags and get out.
00:04:40Especially you newcomers, keep your mouths shut.
00:04:43Don't try to be clever, and don't cause any trouble.
00:04:48Who is this big shot?
00:04:50Why so intense?
00:04:53I'm not just trying to scare you.
00:04:55The man at the top only cares about results, not excuses.
00:04:59Even if you beg him in tears, he won't even blink.
00:05:01Do I make myself clear?
00:05:03Understood.
00:05:05You're in charge of the entire reception process.
00:05:08Stand in the middle, and don't make any mistakes.
00:05:21Mr. Cole.
00:05:24Good to see you.
00:05:27How could it be him?
00:05:29My god, the new boss is so handsome.
00:05:32This total hunk is exactly my type.
00:05:34Don't even try to compete with me.
00:05:36The boss will be working from this office for the time being, and requires a personal assistant.
00:05:41Mr. Cole.
00:05:41Mr. Cole.
00:05:41Mr. Cole.
00:05:42Mr. Cole.
00:05:43Mr. Cole, I'm very familiar with the branch's workflow.
00:05:46I'm the best fit for the job.
00:05:47Boss, my English and scheduling skills are top-notch.
00:05:49I can start immediately.
00:05:56Mr. Cole.
00:05:57Clara is the most suitable candidate.
00:05:59She's meticulous, discreet, and knows exactly how to behave.
00:06:04Manager, I don't...
00:06:05This is an arrangement from headquarters.
00:06:07You don't have the right to refuse.
00:06:09Now go to the CEO's office immediately to report duty to Mr. Cole.
00:06:24Mr. Cole, I do not accept this arrangement.
00:06:30Give me a reason.
00:06:34Your transfer is a professional matter.
00:06:36What, do I need your boyfriend's permission to make you my secretary?
00:06:40Anyone could be your personal assistant, but it shouldn't be me.
00:06:45It shouldn't be you, or you're just afraid to face me.
00:06:48Are you hiding from me?
00:06:49Mr. Cole.
00:06:50That night at the annual gala...
00:06:53I had too much to drink that night.
00:06:54I simply lost control.
00:06:56You look too much like someone I used to know.
00:06:57I mistook you for her and crossed the line.
00:06:59My mistake.
00:07:00I apologize.
00:07:02So, you didn't cross the line on purpose?
00:07:09You're overthinking it.
00:07:10When I want something, I never go about it in such a roundabout way.
00:07:15From today on, you report only to me.
00:07:18Your job description is in there.
00:07:19As my personal assistant, you're on call 24 hours a day.
00:07:24Ryan will handle the handover details with you.
00:07:26My time after work is my own.
00:07:28I have no obligation to...
00:07:34Mr. Cole, you just apologized for crossing the line.
00:07:41I apologized for that night.
00:07:44Right now, I'm teaching you the rules of being my personal assistant.
00:07:51We don't need to be this close to talk about work.
00:07:53Move.
00:07:58Ethan, what exactly do you want?
00:08:04Take a guess.
00:08:23Has anyone ever told you that you look stunning in your uniform?
00:08:26Mr. Cole, are we done talking about work?
00:08:38Don't touch me.
00:08:40I told you I have a fiancé.
00:08:49A fiancé?
00:08:51You're using him as a shield against me?
00:09:02Stay the hell away from me from now on.
00:09:04Ah!
00:09:15Hi, Clara.
00:09:16I'm Ryan.
00:09:19Hello.
00:09:21The CEO has a wide of business, and his personal assistant needs to be on call 24-7.
00:09:26From on, we'll be rotating between day and night shifts.
00:09:30Ryan, is it possible for me to only work day shifts?
00:09:34That...
00:09:34I really can't make that call.
00:09:38Fine.
00:09:39I understand.
00:09:40Also, the boss has arranged staff accommodation for you.
00:09:43It is close to the office.
00:09:44I'll take you there.
00:09:45No need.
00:09:46I have a place to stew.
00:09:48All right.
00:09:49Clear your schedule this weekend.
00:09:51You're attending a gala with the boss.
00:09:56What on earth is he trying to do?
00:10:05You really think high of yourself, don't you?
00:10:07A lowly secretary like you has no right to my son's time.
00:10:11Don't you realize that just standing next to him devalues him?
00:10:14Ava, this is between Noah and me.
00:10:16It's not your place to make decisions for him.
00:10:18Between you?
00:10:19You're a secretary who spends all day hovering around her boss.
00:10:22How does that look?
00:10:23Is it decent?
00:10:24You're embarrassing my son!
00:10:25If you actually care about him, break up with him now and stop standing in his way!
00:10:31Mom, just drop it.
00:10:32Am I wrong?
00:10:33And then there's her grandmother lying in the hospital.
00:10:35She's nothing but a dead weight you can't shake off.
00:10:37If you actually marry her, do you plan on spending the rest of your life filling that bottomless pit?
00:10:42My grandmother's medical bills, I've been paying them all by myself.
00:10:45What'd that have to do with your family?
00:10:47Clara.
00:10:49My mom says some harsh things, but don't take it to heart.
00:10:51I've been sincere with you all these years.
00:10:54But she's right about one thing.
00:10:55Stop being to secretary.
00:10:57I'll take care of your grandmother's medical fields.
00:10:59Just marry me and live a stable life, okay?
00:11:03What did you just say?
00:11:04I don't think so!
00:11:06He says he loves me, but every single time he chooses his mother's side...
00:11:10You want her to quit?
00:11:11You better ask me first if I'm willing to let her go.
00:11:16You want her to resign?
00:11:18Ask me first if I'll let her go.
00:11:20Mr. Cole.
00:11:22Security.
00:11:23What right do you have to stop me?
00:11:25This is a family matter!
00:11:26Because right now, she belongs to me.
00:11:29Let go!
00:11:30Follow me.
00:11:36Go pick a dress.
00:11:38You're accompanying me to a gala this weekend.
00:11:40Mr. Cole, I'm not going to any gala.
00:11:42The weekend is my time off.
00:11:44Besides, taking me away in public like you did today has already crossed the line.
00:11:48Crossed the line?
00:11:49It seems Ryan didn't make it clear to you.
00:11:51My personal assistant needs to be on call 24-7.
00:11:54Also, the company arraigned high-end staff accommodation for you.
00:11:58Why aren't you living there?
00:11:59I have my own place to stay.
00:12:01A personal assistant attending a gala with her boss is part of the job.
00:12:05If you can't even handle this, where else do you think you can go?
00:12:09That's none of your concern, Mr. Cole.
00:12:11This is my private business.
00:12:13Your private business?
00:12:14Once you leave the Cole group, do you plan on letting that loser boyfriend of yours support you?
00:12:19Or are you waiting for his mother to pick a day to pack you and your hospitalized grandmother up and
00:12:23throw you both out?
00:12:24Ethan, don't go too far.
00:12:26I'm going too far?
00:12:27Or, downstairs just now, you stood there taking their abuse and he'd even dare to say a single word for
00:12:32you.
00:12:32That is what's going too far.
00:12:38This one.
00:12:39Go put it on.
00:12:42I'm not going to the gala and I'm done being your personal assistant.
00:12:45I'm resigning first thing tomorrow morning.
00:12:48Resign?
00:12:49To go back to serving coffee and taking meeting panels?
00:12:52Or are you just throwing a tantrum and planning to marry the first man you see?
00:12:56What I do is none of your business.
00:12:58You studied financial analysis, not front desk service.
00:13:01Stay with me and you'll have access to projects, funding, HR, and negotiations.
00:13:06This drooly position is the closest you'll get to the heart of the company.
00:13:10Then there's the hospital.
00:13:11As long as your grandmother is in a coma, you're burning through cash.
00:13:14$50,000 a month.
00:13:16I want you to stay.
00:13:18He's right.
00:13:19But why is he giving this opportunity to me of all people?
00:13:22What's the catch?
00:13:23Be at my beck and chail, follow my orders, and stay by my side.
00:13:26I can't afford grandma's medical bills on my own.
00:13:28I'm in no position to be stubborn right now.
00:13:31Fine.
00:13:31I accept.
00:13:33But it's strictly professional.
00:13:34Go.
00:13:35Put the dress on.
00:13:36I'll go to the gala, but I don't need the dress.
00:13:38If you're not dressed properly, it's my reputation on the line.
00:13:50Come here.
00:13:56You said it was just work.
00:13:58Work also includes letting me personally check if my people are up to standard.
00:14:12Mr. Cole, old Mr. Leo wants you back immediately.
00:14:15Get the car ready.
00:14:18Remember what I said, Clara.
00:14:20Stop hiding from me.
00:14:23Grandma is still in the hospital.
00:14:25I don't even have the right to push him away.
00:14:28Julian only lost a few projects.
00:14:30Making such a scene is odor heartless, don't think?
00:14:32Exactly, Dad.
00:14:33Was just a few failed projects, and he demotes me so cumulically?
00:14:36If I'm allowed a punction, how am I supposed to glean experience?
00:14:39Days were doshes, your brother's decisions.
00:14:41I want that out here as in Sinner's explanation.
00:14:44Holding a trial at home while I'm away, are we?
00:14:46Ethan, what right do you have to bar me from headquarters projects?
00:14:49Because you're not qualified.
00:14:50Losing a few projects would at most get you kicked out of a branch office.
00:14:53But you forged processes, misappropriated seals,
00:14:55and meddled in headquarters projects without authorization.
00:14:58Shay's gonna cover the losses you cost.
00:14:59Stop labeling him like that.
00:15:01Julian was just trying to fix things.
00:15:03He just got a bit ahead of himself with the procedures.
00:15:05Is this true?
00:15:06I just wanted to prove that I'm not a loser.
00:15:08I shouldn't be kicked out just because of a few failed projects.
00:15:11I haven't even cleaned up your match,
00:15:12and you've all just said of the headquarters.
00:15:14He's your brother.
00:15:16As of tonight, Julian is suspended from all duties.
00:15:19Touch headquarters authority one more time,
00:15:21and I'll make sure
00:15:23you can't even keep the title of brother.
00:15:33Clara, sit down first.
00:15:35It was our fault that my mom caused a scene at your office the other day.
00:15:38I asked you here today to lay everything out and talk about the wedding properly.
00:15:41I'm not unreasonable.
00:15:42You've been with our Noah for three years,
00:15:44but if you really want to join this family,
00:15:46there are some rules we need to establish today.
00:15:48What kind of rules are we talking about, Ava?
00:15:49First, you quit your job after the wedding.
00:15:52A secretary spending all day smiling at people.
00:15:54It doesn't sound good.
00:15:55Second, the house must be in Noah's name.
00:15:57Sell that old house of your grandmother's to pay for the new marital home.
00:16:00Mom, take it easy.
00:16:01We're all family.
00:16:02Family?
00:16:03Noah, you knew about all this before you invited me here, didn't you?
00:16:05Let's just get married first.
00:16:07Everything else can be negotiated later.
00:16:09My mom is just thinking about our future.
00:16:10We can't keep renting forever.
00:16:11Clara, you're an orphan with a bedlation grandmother,
00:16:13and your job is hardly respectable.
00:16:15If Noah weren't so soft-hearted, who would ever marry you?
00:16:17So today isn't about a wedding.
00:16:20It's about you bringing me here just to sit and watch your mother humiliate me.
00:16:24Clara, do you have to be so unpleasant?
00:16:27Is it my words that are unpleasant?
00:16:29Or is it what the two of you are actually doing?
00:16:35Enjoy this meal yourselves.
00:16:40Where are you going?
00:16:42Did I hit a nerve?
00:16:44I've seen plenty of gold-deckers like you.
00:16:50Clara, I didn't expect things to turn out like this today.
00:16:53I'm sorry.
00:16:54Please don't rethink...
00:16:56Noah, we've been together for three years,
00:16:58and I've always believed in us.
00:16:59If we can't make it to marriage, the problem isn't with us.
00:17:03My mom is just like that.
00:17:04She's a straight talker.
00:17:05Don't take it to heart.
00:17:06You still don't get it.
00:17:07The problem is that your mother looks down on my background entirely.
00:17:09That's not true.
00:17:10Whether it's buying the house or you resigning,
00:17:12she's doing it all so we can have a better life later.
00:17:14Clara, just swallow your pride a little, okay?
00:17:15Marriage shouldn't be about me constantly compromising.
00:17:17If you can't even manage that, then maybe we should just call it quits.
00:17:21Clara!
00:17:22Wait!
00:17:23Clara!
00:17:25Clara!
00:17:27Clara!
00:17:29Clara!
00:17:30Clara!
00:17:33When his mother was using the house and your job to pressure you,
00:17:37he just stood there like a spineless coward.
00:17:39Why are you still with someone like that?
00:17:42Mr. Cole, you're overstepping!
00:17:44Clara,
00:17:45how much longer are you going to endure this?
00:17:47It's none of your business.
00:17:50Stop wasting your time with Noah.
00:17:52Break up with him.
00:17:53Whatever you want, I'll give it to you.
00:17:55What right do you have to interfere in my life?
00:18:00The right that comes from the fact that he can't protect you.
00:18:07Clara?
00:18:08Are you in there?
00:18:08Let go!
00:18:09He's here!
00:18:11Clara, I'm coming in!
00:18:13Shh!
00:18:15Do you want him to see you pressed up against me like this?
00:18:23Clara?
00:18:35I was wondering who it was.
00:18:37So the eternal iceberg is finally in the mood to play with women?
00:18:43Carry on.
00:18:44I've got the wrong room.
00:18:51Let me go!
00:18:53Clara, think it over.
00:18:55Stay with me.
00:18:56And I'll give you money.
00:18:57The position of the mistress of Cole group.
00:18:59And a life where no one dares look down on you.
00:19:01My breath at Dora hard things get.
00:19:02Was they were you's knee to right to play my up?
00:19:04The floor is cold.
00:19:05Don't catch a chill.
00:19:07Think about what I said when you get back.
00:19:09There's no rush.
00:19:13Clara, don't make me wait too long.
00:19:20Let me through!
00:19:20Please, you can't go in there.
00:19:23Please, you can't go in there.
00:19:29Who's the family?
00:19:30Miss, your grandmother just had another complication.
00:19:33The scheduled consultation is suspended and the new treatment plan is stuck.
00:19:37She's already compomas.
00:19:39If we delay any longer, I'm afraid...
00:19:41What do you mean, stuck?
00:19:42I'll find a way to get the money.
00:19:44Just save her first.
00:19:45It's not about the money.
00:19:47This plan is still experimental and requires the hospital's highest authority to sign off.
00:19:53No one dares to approve it right now.
00:19:56Who do I need to find?
00:19:58Ethan Cole.
00:20:04Him again.
00:20:07I just had a falling out with him yesterday, and now Mia, is this a coincidence?
00:20:13If you're really using my grandmother, Brodytel blasts me.
00:20:16I'll drag you to if it costs me my life.
00:20:19Let me remind you, whether she lives or dies depends entirely on whether he's willing to give.
00:20:25I understand.
00:20:27I understand.
00:20:36Want to save her?
00:20:37Come to Stella Vine Garden.
00:20:50Where is Mr. Cole?
00:20:51You're his...
00:20:52Secretary?
00:20:54What's the rush, sweetheart?
00:20:55I need him.
00:20:57Now.
00:20:58At this hour, you don't work your day shifts and chase the boss to a night party instead?
00:21:04Ethan's into this plane type now?
00:21:09He's tied up.
00:21:10Since you're here, why not grab a drink and wait with us?
00:21:15How long?
00:21:17Depends on how well you wait.
00:21:23What, hanging around Ethan made you untouchable?
00:21:27You're a servant to him, remember that.
00:21:30Your job is to entertain.
00:21:31Stop acting like a saint.
00:21:33Watch your mouth.
00:21:35Ooh, feisty.
00:21:36Begging for a favor with that attitude?
00:21:38Who taught you that?
00:21:41Tell you what.
00:21:42Take a lap in the pool, and I'll call Ethan for you.
00:21:45Deal?
00:21:53What's wrong, Miss Secretary?
00:21:55Can't swim?
00:22:02Mr. Cole, we found out.
00:22:04Noah's mother messed with Clara's grandmother's meds.
00:22:07She intentionally delayed Mia's treatment to force the new protocol.
00:22:13Hold her tight.
00:22:14Don't let the beauty choke.
00:22:16Get the hell out!
00:22:22Your hands.
00:22:23You touched her with those filthy hands?
00:22:29Big mistake.
00:22:30She is mine.
00:22:32Anyone who touches her is dead.
00:22:43Let me go!
00:22:44I didn't come here to be your joke!
00:22:46Are you stupid?
00:22:48Letting them gang up on you without even calling my name?
00:22:54They're your people, and you told me to come here.
00:22:57I'm sorry.
00:22:58It's on me.
00:22:59I was late.
00:23:15Where did he touch you?
00:23:19Let me go!
00:23:28Here?
00:23:30We're here.
00:23:36Ethan, don't use this as an excuse.
00:23:42Your grandmother gets the new treatment.
00:23:44I'll approve it tonight.
00:23:50Now tell me, where did he touch you?
00:23:55Nowhere.
00:23:57He didn't touch me.
00:24:04We can't.
00:24:05It's so wrong.
00:24:06I have a boyfriend.
00:24:07Listen to me.
00:24:09It's Mia, you're gone.
00:24:11Dump him, and it'll be right.
00:24:18Thank you for tonight, Mr. Cole.
00:24:24You're almost back in my arms.
00:24:27I can't fall for this.
00:24:29Absolutely not.
00:24:39Clara, why are you soaking wet?
00:24:45It was raining.
00:24:48Forgot my umbrella.
00:24:50I forgot my umbrella.
00:25:04What's wrong?
00:25:06Did my mom bother you again?
00:25:09Clara, I've thought it through.
00:25:11I won't let my mom interfere with our wet anymore.
00:25:14I'm standing firmly with you from now on.
00:25:19Really?
00:25:22Don't stress about it tonight.
00:25:24Get some rest.
00:25:26Don't touch me!
00:25:27Clara, what's wrong with you?
00:25:30I'm fine.
00:25:31Just not feeling well.
00:25:33Let me ask you something.
00:25:36This old scar here.
00:25:39The moon-shaped one.
00:25:40Do you know how I got it?
00:25:41What scar?
00:25:44You've never seen it?
00:25:46Clara, we've been together for three years.
00:25:48And I've always respected you.
00:25:50We haven't gone that far.
00:25:52I had no idea.
00:25:54Three years together.
00:25:56And Noah doesn't even know about the scar.
00:25:58So why does Ethan touch it every single time?
00:26:05Are you running a fever?
00:26:06I'll get a towel.
00:26:08Noah, so what else do you know about me?
00:26:16Three years ago, first met you at college.
00:26:20You were caught in the rain outside the library,
00:26:23hugging a pile of books, vacuum-ly.
00:26:26Almost tripped, and I caught you.
00:26:37And then we were together.
00:26:42That's it?
00:26:44That's it.
00:26:46Your past, who you've been with.
00:26:48I know nothing.
00:26:50Neither do I.
00:26:52It's okay, Clara.
00:26:54Whatever happened, happened.
00:26:57Stop overthinking.
00:26:58It's just an old scar.
00:27:00Probably from when you were a kid.
00:27:03Yeah.
00:27:03I'm tired.
00:27:05Going to bed.
00:27:261,000 days and nights, but Noah never noticed.
00:27:31And Ethan found it on day one.
00:27:33What did I forget?
00:28:00I'm taking you to the hospital.
00:28:09Hold on, we're almost there.
00:28:11Our Clara's the bravest.
00:28:13Don't be afraid.
00:28:21It wasn't a dream.
00:28:22I really did know him.
00:28:24But it wasn't Noah.
00:28:26The age, the timing, nothing fits.
00:28:29Clara, that boy, was much older than me.
00:28:32What did I forget?
00:28:33Who did I lose?
00:28:38It's been days, and Ethan still shuts Julia out of the company.
00:28:42At the end of the day, he just can't tolerate us.
00:28:47He pushed too far!
00:28:49Dad, I messed up.
00:28:50But Ethan stepping on me like this?
00:28:53He has no respect for me at all.
00:28:55I just feel for you.
00:28:57So what if he controls the group?
00:28:5932 now, and not a single woman by his side.
00:29:02You can't hand the Cole legacy to a man with no heir, right?
00:29:08Right.
00:29:09Marriage is a top priority.
00:29:19Since when does a mistress get a say in my marriage?
00:29:23She is your stepmother!
00:29:26A murderer drove my mother to her grave?
00:29:29Call her mummy if you want.
00:29:30Ethan, say what you want about me.
00:29:33But your father is just being concerned.
00:29:36Julian's about to start a family.
00:29:38Him?
00:29:39And what's he going to do?
00:29:41Hustle with thugs to feed?
00:29:43You!
00:29:44Enough!
00:29:45She's right.
00:29:46I am not handing over the group to an airless brat!
00:29:49Father, I run the company now.
00:29:52Don't you forget that.
00:29:54My marriage is off limits to you all.
00:29:56If I choose to marry, I will.
00:29:58Easy for you to say.
00:30:00The way you are,
00:30:01I doubt anyone would even dare to cross that line with you.
00:30:05Save your breath.
00:30:06When I want someone, nobody stands in my way.
00:30:20You kick me out of HQ and think you own this family?
00:30:23Think you're untouchable?
00:30:24Ethan, drop the gun,
00:30:26and I'll let you crawl out of here alive.
00:30:28Shut the fuck up!
00:30:29Dad backing you today doesn't mean you won!
00:30:33Let's see you run the company with a crippled hand!
00:30:39Let go!
00:30:43No!
00:30:44No!
00:30:44We're in the family house!
00:30:46Dad will kill you!
00:30:47Try me.
00:30:53Point a gun at me again,
00:30:54and a leg is just the deposit.
00:30:58I'm sorry!
00:30:59I'm sorry!
00:31:10This feeling...
00:31:12It's so unsettling.
00:31:14It feels like...
00:31:15Someone's in trouble.
00:31:23I'm sorry.
00:31:29A personal secretary for, what, three days?
00:31:31And she's already flashing a limitless black card.
00:31:34Oh!
00:31:35Wonder who's that sugar daddy?
00:31:36Is this real?
00:31:38Or just some cheap fake to show off?
00:31:46Put it down.
00:31:47That's not even mine.
00:31:49Not yours?
00:31:50What, it just spawned on your desk?
00:31:51Got a night shift sponsor and stopped hiding it?
00:31:54Please.
00:31:55She gets a little backing and thinks she owns the place.
00:31:57Jealous?
00:31:58Run the numbers yourself.
00:32:00Keep your mouth shut and back off.
00:32:13Lively for an early morning?
00:32:14Mr. Cole, we were just worried about sketchy things in the office.
00:32:18Bad for the culture, you know?
00:32:20I'd also like to know who left this card.
00:32:25You don't know?
00:32:28I don't.
00:32:33Now, anyone else want to guess whose it is?
00:32:48I don't want this card.
00:32:50Still don't get it?
00:32:51It's from me.
00:32:53Ethan Cole, I'm your secretary.
00:32:55Not your kept woman.
00:32:56Miss Clara, as the boss's personal secretary, you'll be attending high-profile events.
00:33:03Your image is the group's image.
00:33:05Think of it as a corporate allowance.
00:33:07You already had a gown tailored for me for the banquet.
00:33:10Miss Clara, even I hold a similar card.
00:33:13One gown won't cut it for the countless events ahead.
00:33:16Just keep it.
00:33:18Fine.
00:33:19I'll treat it strictly as a corporate expense.
00:33:21Remember, the ground you're standing on right now isn't something just anyone can hand to you.
00:33:34Clara, you're coming to the gala this week.
00:33:37Not as my secretary, but as my date.
00:33:40Excuse me?
00:33:42Is it that hard to stand by my side?
00:33:44Of course it is.
00:33:44We live in different worlds.
00:33:46Escorting you as staff is one thing.
00:33:48Being your date?
00:33:49Absolutely not.
00:33:53I'm sorry.
00:33:56What's wrong?
00:33:57You get hurt?
00:33:59Bitten by a dog last night.
00:34:00It's nothing.
00:34:01A dog?
00:34:02Last night?
00:34:03That panic attack?
00:34:04Was it because of him?
00:34:06Be my date to the gala, please?
00:34:08Just this once.
00:34:10No more non-work matters again.
00:34:13Sure.
00:34:18Worth the bullet.
00:34:23Meet Clara Bennett, my girlfriend, and the future Mrs. Cole.
00:34:30Dear brother, nice joke.
00:34:33Isn't she just your secretary?
00:34:35Look who it is.
00:34:37Think putting on a gown gets you into the Cole family?
00:34:41You can pile on all the jewels you want.
00:34:44Trash stays trash.
00:34:45And a homewrecker should shut the hell up about my future wife.
00:34:48Really?
00:34:50Then answer me this.
00:34:51Do you even know future Mrs. Cole still has a boyfriend?
00:34:57Oh, right.
00:34:59Miss Clara here is dating one of your very own employees, isn't she?
00:35:03How dramatic.
00:35:04Ethan, your taste is getting remarkably cheap.
00:35:07Ethan!
00:35:08Is Julian telling the truth?
00:35:10Yes.
00:35:11But she is much more than that.
00:35:15Absurd!
00:35:15So many elite women, and you bring home a secretary?
00:35:21Miss Clara, must be hard sitting in the chief secretary's chair.
00:35:24Or do you prefer sitting somewhere else?
00:35:26I'm here out of professional courtesy, not to be your laughing stock.
00:35:31You brought me here to let your family humiliate me?
00:35:34They are not my family.
00:35:36Enough.
00:35:38Hit a nerve?
00:35:39Brother, stealing someone's leftovers and parading her around?
00:35:42Steal.
00:35:43She was mine from the very beginning.
00:35:46And she will always be mine.
00:35:48Boss, we couldn't stop her.
00:35:50Miss Clara left.
00:35:53Get the car.
00:35:54Go!
00:36:05You're back?
00:36:06Good.
00:36:06Saves me calling security.
00:36:10What are you doing?
00:36:12Think this is your house?
00:36:14My son pays the rent.
00:36:15No free rides.
00:36:16We've always split the rent.
00:36:21I know you look down on me, but tossing my stuff out while he's away, that's just ugly.
00:36:26Ugly?
00:36:27Clinging to my son for three years is what's ugly.
00:36:30Whether I leave isn't your call to make.
00:36:33I know your type.
00:36:35Acting innocent while calculating every penny.
00:36:37Clinging harder now that he's in the coal group.
00:36:40If he wants me gone, let him tell me himself.
00:36:43You dare stay?
00:36:44I'm not squatting.
00:36:45I'm waiting for your son to give me an explanation.
00:36:57Everything you did today, the camera caught it all.
00:37:00Are you threatening me?
00:37:01Not a threat.
00:37:02Just evidence.
00:37:03When Noah returns, we'll watch it and clear this up.
00:37:06Clear it up?
00:37:07You think he'd believe you?
00:37:08That's not for you to decide.
00:37:10So what?
00:37:11He's my flesh and blood.
00:37:12I'm protecting him.
00:37:13Get lost!
00:37:20What is this?
00:37:22Why is this in my book?
00:37:27Take my hand now.
00:37:28I'll always protect you.
00:37:45Take my hand now.
00:37:47I'll always protect you.
00:38:02Clara, come here.
00:38:12Take my hand.
00:38:27Clara, I'm out of town.
00:38:29I can't rush back.
00:38:30You know my mom's temper.
00:38:31Just bear with it.
00:38:32Check into a hotel for now.
00:38:34We'll talk when I'm back.
00:38:37She tossed my luggage on the street, and you're telling me to bear with it?
00:38:41What else can we do?
00:38:42Blowing this up won't help.
00:38:43Just step back for now.
00:38:45Three years.
00:38:46You always tell me to step back.
00:38:47On rent, on dignity, letting your mother walk all over me.
00:38:50Now I'm locked out of my own home, and you're still telling me to back down?
00:38:54Clara, I'm doing this for your own good.
00:38:55You're hanging around Ethan Cole.
00:38:57The rumors are toxic enough as it is.
00:38:59Can you stop throwing a tantrum?
00:39:00We'll talk in person when you get back.
00:39:07You haven't told me where we're going.
00:39:22I'm not staying here.
00:39:24Staff accommodation for the personal secretary.
00:39:27Fifteen minutes from the office.
00:39:28This is...
00:39:29A staff dorm?
00:39:32Starting tonight, this is where you live.
00:39:34Your private villa?
00:39:35It's entirely inappropriate.
00:39:37A real dorm is full of gossip.
00:39:38You and Noah aren't clean yet.
00:39:39Ava threw you out once.
00:39:40She'll do it again.
00:39:41I don't have time to rescue every egg, so...
00:39:43Just stay here.
00:40:01You...
00:40:05Stand still.
00:40:10Don't move!
00:40:12Where's the first aid kit?
00:40:13Bedroom drawer.
00:40:14Second drawer.
00:40:26You're in a rush.
00:40:27I'm not running away.
00:40:33It's split wide open.
00:40:35Why did you move it?
00:40:38You were falling.
00:40:40Couldn't think about it.
00:40:43Tonight doesn't change anything.
00:40:44Me staying here doesn't mean I'm agreeing to...
00:40:47This.
00:40:48You're already in my house.
00:40:49You have a lot of things to agree with.
00:40:52Ethan, even if things are over with him,
00:40:54you and I...
00:40:55We're still world...
00:41:04Over?
00:41:05Then you're entirely mine now.
00:41:28It's late.
00:41:30Sleep.
00:41:31I'll stay here tonight.
00:41:33How did you know that?
00:41:35Thunder?
00:41:35Your reaction just now.
00:41:38I'm right next door.
00:41:40Don't be afraid.
00:41:41Call me if you need me.
00:41:49Clara, I sent the wrong vendor version.
00:41:51The boss is furious.
00:41:53And Ryan's logging it as a major compliance issue.
00:41:56I'm gonna be fired.
00:41:57Please, you have to help me.
00:41:59Did you seriously skip the compliance check on this?
00:42:02I was in a rush.
00:42:03I messed up.
00:42:04Please don't leave me out to dry.
00:42:06Just this once.
00:42:06There won't be a next time.
00:42:08Wait for my word.
00:42:19You move fast for a mere intern.
00:42:22The clauses can be salvaged.
00:42:24She's green.
00:42:25I'll cover the losses.
00:42:29You'll cover it?
00:42:30With what?
00:42:31I'm mentoring her.
00:42:33Her mistake is on me, so...
00:42:35Hiding from me all night, yet here you are.
00:42:38Delivering yourself to my door.
00:42:40Clara, are you begging me?
00:42:41If that's how you want to put it, yes.
00:42:45Begging me comes with conditions.
00:42:48What's the price?
00:43:02Ethan, don't go too far.
00:43:15This is the price.
00:43:16Can you handle it?
00:43:20Who includes letting me personally check if my people...
00:43:30This feeling again.
00:43:31I should push him away, but my body already recognizes him.
00:43:39Not hiding anymore?
00:43:44I'm doing this for the intern.
00:43:46Then why are you shaking, hmm?
00:43:48Wrap your legs this tight to save an intern, too?
00:43:51You're being cheeky.
00:43:53Clara, be mine.
00:43:55Please.
00:44:08Mr. Cole, we have a situation.
00:44:13Come in.
00:44:19Photos of you and Miss Clara entering the villa leaked last night.
00:44:23It's trending.
00:44:24The search tags just blew up.
00:44:26Block the tags first.
00:44:28Scrub the feeds clean.
00:44:30Have we found out who did it?
00:44:31He's right outside the door.
00:44:33Bring him in.
00:44:39Mr. Cole, I just took the cash for a gig.
00:44:43I didn't want it this big.
00:44:45How do you want to handle him?
00:44:47Post a clarification right now.
00:44:48Prove these photos were maliciously cropped.
00:44:51I'll post it under my real name.
00:44:53I'll even even record an apology video.
00:44:57That's it?
00:44:57What else?
00:44:58Actually cripple him?
00:45:02Ryan, watch him post it.
00:45:04I want the narrative flipped in ten minutes.
00:45:06Understood.
00:45:07Miss Clara, thank you.
00:45:13Do you have any idea how much today's trending search will rock the Cole Group stock?
00:45:16This debt?
00:45:18I settle with the one who actually pulled the strings.
00:45:31You haven't fulfilled my condition yet.
00:45:33We were interrupted.
00:45:36Ethan, you're shameless.
00:45:41Today's leak isn't the issue.
00:45:43The person daring to targue you is the issue.
00:45:46What do you mean?
00:45:48Clara, by my side, you still have a lot to learn.
00:45:50Ava Reed hired him.
00:45:52Impossible.
00:45:53She hates me, but she wouldn't dare mess with Cole Group.
00:45:56Noah works here.
00:45:56She wouldn't gamble his career on this.
00:45:58Wouldn't dare?
00:46:00When has she ever gone soft on you?
00:46:02Don't believe me?
00:46:04Let's make a bet.
00:46:05Bet what?
00:46:07If I win, you marry me.
00:46:10You're using marriage as a bet?
00:46:13Scared?
00:46:14Fine.
00:46:15But if you lose, then what?
00:46:17I'll take my entire net worth, marry you, and take your last name.
00:46:27Mr. Cole, the surveillance and call logs you requested are ready.
00:46:31Speak.
00:46:32The perpetrator received an anonymous transfer last night, traced back to an account under
00:46:37the Reed family.
00:46:38How could it be?
00:46:40Still think I'm trying to drive a wed between you?
00:46:57He's taking a shower.
00:46:58Who is this?
00:47:00Put Noah on the phone.
00:47:01Who's calling?
00:47:02Spam call.
00:47:04You didn't satisfy me last night.
00:47:06Hurry up.
00:47:07Let's keep going.
00:47:14Still trying to make excuses for him now?
00:47:18No more.
00:47:20Noah, we're over.
00:47:23You finally see clearly.
00:47:30I see him clearly.
00:47:32And I see myself now.
00:47:37I want to resign.
00:47:39Resign and then?
00:47:40Where are you going to hide?
00:47:42I'm leaving this place.
00:47:44Leaving all of you.
00:47:45You think leaving will make you forget everything?
00:47:49Then what do you want?
00:47:51To laugh at me?
00:47:52Give me a chance.
00:47:54What?
00:47:55Use me to get back at him?
00:47:57Or pity me if that's what this is.
00:48:00Wouldn't it feel better to date his boss?
00:48:02Be my wife.
00:48:04From now on, Noah's fate is yours to decide.
00:48:09Ethan, how many women have you fed that line to?
00:48:12Only you.
00:48:12And you're the only one I'd steal.
00:48:14Aren't you afraid I'm just taking it out on you?
00:48:19I'd take that too.
00:48:23You said it.
00:48:25Don't regret this.
00:48:53Clara, from this moment on, you're mine.
00:48:56Only mine.
00:49:10What?
00:49:11Up half the night?
00:49:12Still not satisfied?
00:49:13Stop it.
00:49:15My back is killing me.
00:49:17You're back?
00:49:19Last night?
00:49:20On the sofa?
00:49:21On the desk?
00:49:22In the shower?
00:49:24Who was the one wrapping her legs around me and refusing to let go?
00:49:27Stop.
00:49:28Tell me.
00:49:30Who makes you feel better?
00:49:31Me or Noah?
00:49:32Hmm?
00:49:33I never let him touch me.
00:49:46Mr. Cole, the hospital called.
00:49:49Miss Clara's grandmother just woke up.
00:49:51I'll go with you.
00:50:02Grandma.
00:50:05You've lost so much weight.
00:50:11And this is?
00:50:16He's my boss.
00:50:17He helped a lot with your treatment.
00:50:21Mrs. Bennett, please focus on getting better.
00:50:24I'll take care of Clara.
00:50:25Those eyes of yours?
00:50:28They look just like someone from years ago.
00:50:43You should go.
00:50:45I've got Grandma.
00:50:47Call me anytime.
00:50:58Look at your son.
00:50:59First he crippled Julian's leg.
00:51:01Now, for some little secretary, he beat him so badly he can't even move in bed.
00:51:07Cut ties with Clara immediately.
00:51:11Cut ties?
00:51:12You make it sound so easy.
00:51:14As an older brother, how could you stab Julian in the back like that?
00:51:19All for some cheap woman?
00:51:20Cheap woman?
00:51:22You would know all about that.
00:51:27Honey, did you hear that?
00:51:29He's going to tear this family apart for an outsider.
00:51:33Outsider?
00:51:34The one eyeing my seat lives under this roof.
00:51:36The one who touched my woman lives here too.
00:51:38Now you're playing the victim?
00:51:40Cut the crap.
00:51:40We all know exactly who the real outsider is.
00:51:43Last warning.
00:51:44That woman is not welcome in the Cole family.
00:51:47Back then.
00:51:48Did my mother stood right here too?
00:51:51Listening's every word you said pushed her out.
00:51:56Ethan, don't drag up the past.
00:51:58Who gave you the right to speak?
00:52:00Enough!
00:52:01Answer me.
00:52:03Who really tainted this family's bloodline?
00:52:06I don't think I need to spell it out.
00:52:10Dad, remember, this group belongs to my grandfather's legacy.
00:52:14I came back out of feel respect.
00:52:16I've been lenient with your illamate son.
00:52:19Push me too far and mercy ends.
00:52:23You ungrateful bastard!
00:52:26You've completely lost your mind!
00:52:32You're with him now, aren't you?
00:52:33Every time I needed you, where were you?
00:52:35I was on a business.
00:52:37A business trip.
00:52:38I was planning for our future.
00:52:40Do you know how-
00:52:41Busy enough to end up in a hotel bed?
00:52:43Clara, it's not what you think.
00:52:44Are you done?
00:52:45I was wrong.
00:52:46Please forgive me.
00:52:47Just this once.
00:52:50You dare touch my woman?
00:52:53Because she's on my side now.
00:52:55Wait for me in the car.
00:52:57Clara, you can't leave.
00:53:01I thought you loved her so much.
00:53:04Just a little temptation and your pants are already off?
00:53:08So that business trip,
00:53:10you arranged it on purpose?
00:53:12And that female co-worker you sent her to my room to?
00:53:17You're shameless!
00:53:19Shameless?
00:53:20I knew her before you were even in the picture!
00:53:23What does that mean?
00:53:24I was the one who grew up with her,
00:53:26and the first man she ever loved.
00:53:27You've only had three years.
00:53:29How can you compete?
00:53:30What?
00:53:31So what?
00:53:32She doesn't remember any of it.
00:53:34The day she remembers everything and finds out what you've done,
00:53:36she'll still leave you.
00:53:37Just wait and see.
00:53:39She won't.
00:53:40She won't.
00:53:47What are you doing?
00:53:49What, seeing your ex got you all nostalgic?
00:53:51No.
00:53:58Ethan.
00:53:59Don't see him again.
00:54:11You're leading the West Side Acquisition.
00:54:13Me?
00:54:14The budget on this case is huge.
00:54:16I'm just a secretary.
00:54:17What if I mess it up?
00:54:18You've been with me long enough.
00:54:20You should be capable by now.
00:54:22Break whatever you want, it's on me.
00:54:24Just get it done.
00:54:26Aren't you afraid I'll make a mess of it?
00:54:28Clara, with Noah, all you learned was how to clean up his messes.
00:54:31But with me, it won't be like that.
00:54:33I can afford to lose any number of projects.
00:54:35But I believe in your ability.
00:54:39Okay.
00:54:40I'll do it.
00:54:44Clara, it was Ethan.
00:54:46He must with us.
00:54:47He destroyed what?
00:54:49When?
00:54:53Ethan, the headquarters audit is complete.
00:54:56Julian may have played the fool for years, but he and Chloe cycled millions from Coal Gloop.
00:55:01And there's an offshore trail.
00:55:03They've crossed into illegal trade.
00:55:05We've got enough evidence.
00:55:08It's time to end this.
00:55:17Clara, would you marry me?
00:55:21But at the gala that night, your family looked down on my background.
00:55:25Just like his did...
00:55:26They are not my family.
00:55:28That's my father's mistress and her legitimate son.
00:55:30Back then, she even drove my mother to her death just to marry into the family.
00:55:33And the Coal Group is my grandfather's legacy.
00:55:35Say yes.
00:55:36And everything I own, my people, my money, is yours.
00:55:39And no one will ever lay a finger on you again.
00:55:46Yes.
00:55:55Ethan.
00:55:57Too late to regret now.
00:56:13What should you call me?
00:56:15Dear husband.
00:56:26So she actually moved in?
00:56:28No wonder he hasn't answered my calls lately.
00:56:30You are Vivian?
00:56:32The A-list actress?
00:56:34You know me?
00:56:35Good.
00:56:35That makes this easier.
00:56:36The eyes, the hairstyle, the body.
00:56:39Yeah, you do look a lot like me.
00:56:41Sweetheart, I'm back now.
00:56:42Time for you to get out.
00:56:44I don't know what you're talking about.
00:56:45Still playing tough?
00:56:47You think sleeping with him gets you into the Coal family?
00:56:49You're just the playholder he found to fill the gap.
00:56:51The woman he loves is me!
00:56:54Really?
00:56:55But I've been living here for a while and I haven't found a single trace of you.
00:57:00You...
00:57:00Vivian, get out.
00:57:02You're protecting her like this because of her face, right?
00:57:09Who is this?
00:57:15Obviously, it's me.
00:57:16The face is completely blurred.
00:57:18How dare you claim to be her?
00:57:20By the resources he's poured into me.
00:57:22By the way he looks at me.
00:57:24By the fact that he waits for me when I'm on set for months.
00:57:27And you?
00:57:27A secretary who moved in a few days ago and you actually think you've made it?
00:57:33Get out.
00:57:34Let her decide!
00:57:35Clara, he chose you because you resembles me.
00:57:38You're nothing but an imitation.
00:57:40A toy for his pleasure.
00:57:44Is what she's saying true?
00:57:46Look at me.
00:57:47Don't listen to her.
00:57:48Can't answer?
00:57:49Then I'll answer for you.
00:57:51The woman in his heart is me.
00:57:54Don't touch me.
00:57:57So when I said yes to your proposal,
00:57:59who were you really seeing?
00:58:05Clara!
00:58:18Claire, I know I was a jerk.
00:58:20I know I didn't protect you.
00:58:21But I swear, I want to change.
00:58:23I really want to win you back.
00:58:26Stop staying with Ethan, okay?
00:58:28Men like him take whatever they want.
00:58:30If you stay by his side,
00:58:31you'll only get dragged into his mess.
00:58:33Let's get married.
00:58:34I'll quit my job
00:58:36and take you away somewhere safe.
00:58:38Safe?
00:58:39Yes.
00:58:39Safe.
00:58:40And steady.
00:58:41We can leave everything behind.
00:58:43I only want you.
00:58:46If I just go back,
00:58:48can I leave all this behind?
00:59:01How dare you touch her?
00:59:05You abused your power to pressure her
00:59:08and now you have the nerve to take her?
00:59:13Look, every private asset under my name
00:59:16starting tonight goes to you.
00:59:17The houses, shares, cash, funds,
00:59:20every dollar I make from now on is yours.
00:59:22Have you lost your mind?
00:59:24I lost it a long time ago.
00:59:26Back when you burned yourself at eight
00:59:27and I carried you to the hospital.
00:59:29Who taught me to, Ifian?
00:59:31Was you?
00:59:32You remember?
00:59:33What else?
00:59:34Do you remember anything else?
00:59:35Only that.
00:59:36Then who was the girl in the photo?
00:59:38It's you.
00:59:39I lost you.
00:59:40I never mistake you for someone else.
00:59:43Clara, with a background like his,
00:59:45he can spoil you today
00:59:47and replace you tomorrow.
00:59:48Are you serious about this?
00:59:50Say yes
00:59:51and I'll announce the wedding immediately.
00:59:56Yes.
01:00:20Ethan, what is all this?
01:00:22Mrs. Bennett, I'm here to ask for your blessing
01:00:24to marry Clara.
01:00:26As of today, I'm transferring,
01:00:29poofering everything I own to Clara
01:00:31of my own free will.
01:00:35All this,
01:00:37who exactly are you?
01:00:38Ethan Cole, CEO of Cole Group.
01:00:41Cole Group?
01:00:41The Cole Group that practically runs the business world?
01:00:44Yes.
01:00:45No, I won't allow it.
01:00:48The gap between your families is too big.
01:00:50If Clara marries into a family like yours,
01:00:54she'll be wronged
01:00:55and no one will speak up for her.
01:00:57Grandma!
01:00:59You forgot.
01:01:01But I didn't.
01:01:03Your parents' accident
01:01:05was business-related.
01:01:06Your parents died on the spot.
01:01:08By the time I got there,
01:01:10the car was flipped down the slope,
01:01:11blood everywhere,
01:01:12and then I collapsed too.
01:01:15You were only 19.
01:01:18After you woke up,
01:01:19you forgot everything that came before.
01:01:27Mom, Dad.
01:01:29I won't allow it
01:01:31because I'm terrified
01:01:32history repeats together.
01:01:34If business destroys you again,
01:01:36no one will be able to protect her.
01:01:38That year,
01:01:39it wasn't a car crash.
01:01:45No, it wasn't a car crash.
01:01:51Dad.
01:01:53Mom.
01:01:55Grandma, you saw it, didn't you?
01:01:57Mom and Dad were murdered.
01:01:59Clara, don't force yourself to remember.
01:02:14It was you.
01:02:15Yes.
01:02:17I got there too late.
01:02:18Mrs. Bennett,
01:02:19I'm not an outsider.
01:02:20I'm the boy who lived next door to you back then.
01:02:22That same year,
01:02:23right after I got you both to the hospital,
01:02:24the Cole family found me
01:02:26and took me back.
01:02:27You've been looking for her all this time?
01:02:29Yes.
01:02:30When I saw her again,
01:02:31I swore I would never let her go.
01:02:33So bringing me to your side
01:02:34wasn't some whim?
01:02:36No.
01:02:36I searched for years
01:02:37and I finally found you.
01:02:42Ethan, what else are you hiding from me?
01:02:47I keep feeling like there's more between us than this.
01:02:50If you can't remember,
01:02:51don't force it.
01:02:52From now on,
01:02:53I'll tell you everything,
01:02:54little by little.
01:02:55Mrs. Bennett,
01:02:56you're not afraid of me.
01:02:57You're afraid of the Cole family mess.
01:02:58If business hurts Clara,
01:03:00I'll sign away my rights right now.
01:03:01I don't want the inheritance.
01:03:02Easy for you to say.
01:03:04You fought your way back to that position.
01:03:06Five years ago,
01:03:07when I was dragged back to the Cole family,
01:03:09the first thing I did was look for her.
01:03:11I searched for five whole years.
01:03:13When I finally found her,
01:03:14she'd lost her memory
01:03:15and Noah was standing beside her.
01:03:17That day,
01:03:18I nearly lost my mind.
01:03:20But she didn't remember me,
01:03:21so all I could do
01:03:21was keep her in front of me,
01:03:23step by step.
01:03:24Why didn't you tell me sooner?
01:03:26You were scared of me
01:03:27and you already had someone.
01:03:28I didn't dare take that chance.
01:03:30You're really willing
01:03:30to give up the entire Cole group?
01:03:32All I want is for Clara to be safe.
01:03:35Everything else,
01:03:35I can give up.
01:03:37Fine.
01:03:38You have my blessing
01:03:39for this marriage.
01:03:43For five years,
01:03:44he's been searching for me?
01:03:56It was him.
01:03:58It was always him.
01:04:06A secretary marrying into the Cole family?
01:04:09She certainly knows
01:04:10how to climb the ladder.
01:04:12Mom, stop.
01:04:13There are a lot of people here today.
01:04:14What?
01:04:15She spent three years with you
01:04:16keeping tabs on every meal
01:04:18and every outfit
01:04:19then turned around
01:04:20and lashed on to someone richer?
01:04:25Anyone who marries a woman like that
01:04:27should be ashamed!
01:04:33You know exactly who's ashamed here.
01:04:39Clara, back then I...
01:04:40Shut up!
01:04:41You were faster than anyone
01:04:42when it came to splitting every bill
01:04:44and faster than anyone
01:04:45at hiding behind your mom
01:04:46when things got hard.
01:04:48You never had the guts
01:04:50to stand up for me
01:04:51and now you want to play
01:04:52and now you want to play
01:04:53the devoted ex?
01:04:54I'm standing here today
01:04:55not because I'm trying to marry up
01:04:57but because I finally see
01:04:59who's not good enough for me.
01:05:02You!
01:05:02What, you can humiliate me
01:05:04but I can't settle the score?
01:05:06Feisty and stubborn.
01:05:07She's got the makings
01:05:08of a Cole daughter-in-law.
01:05:27Sprinkle it in her drink.
01:05:28Close the door
01:05:29and I don't need to teach you the rest.
01:05:38After it's done
01:05:39can you really make Ethan fall?
01:05:41More than that.
01:05:42From now on
01:05:43Cole Group will make sure
01:05:44your career goes straight to the top.
01:05:46Are you game?
01:05:59Ethan, I went too far
01:06:01before.
01:06:01We were friends once.
01:06:03Please don't hold it against me.
01:06:05If you're done, leave.
01:06:06Ethan, wait.
01:06:08I came to apologize sincerely.
01:06:11It's your wedding day
01:06:12and I...
01:06:15wish you both happiness.
01:06:40Congratulations, Clara.
01:06:42Consider this my last bit of decency.
01:06:44Let me toast you.
01:06:46How did you get in?
01:06:50I...
01:06:51I work for Cole Group.
01:06:52Of course I was invited.
01:06:54Don't ever.
01:07:11You're drunk.
01:07:12I'll take you to the lounge.
01:07:14Let go.
01:07:16I'm fine.
01:07:20Let...
01:07:21go.
01:07:30What did you make me drink?
01:07:33After tonight,
01:07:34you won't be Ethan's woman anymore.
01:07:36Let go of me.
01:07:38Three years!
01:07:39I gave in to you,
01:07:40comforted you,
01:07:41and you ran straight into Ethan's arms.
01:07:43You think I'm not good enough for you?
01:07:44Get off me.
01:07:48Tonight,
01:07:49I'll show you I'm more than good enough.
01:07:55What's with the fuss?
01:07:57Once you're mine,
01:07:58your pride in Ethan's wedding
01:08:00will all yield to me.
01:08:08Ethan.
01:08:12Ethan.
01:08:19Take my hand now.
01:08:20I'll always protect you.
01:08:25Happy 18th birthday, Clara.
01:08:29Thank you, Ethan.
01:08:35I need to tell you something.
01:08:36I need to something.
01:08:38Clara, I like you.
01:08:40Will you be my girlfriend?
01:08:45That's exactly what I was going to say.
01:08:58My first love was Ethan, too.
01:09:01It was always him.
01:09:04Clara!
01:09:09So what if you remember?
01:09:11It's too late for him!
01:09:19Ethan.
01:09:24Ethan.
01:09:25Listen to me.
01:09:27She was the one who...
01:09:39It was him.
01:09:41There was something in the champagne.
01:09:43Ethan, I remember everything now.
01:09:46The person who was with me all along
01:09:47was you, wasn't it?
01:09:49Don't be scared.
01:09:51I'm here.
01:09:52She was mine to begin with!
01:09:53After tonight,
01:09:54there was no way she could leave with you!
01:09:56Yours?
01:09:57Who the hell do you think you are?
01:09:58You don't deserve to touch her!
01:10:00You used to hide behind your mother.
01:10:02Now you drugged me!
01:10:04Noah, you're disgusting!
01:10:11You'd better pray she didn't suffer
01:10:13one second more than this.
01:10:20Even at my wedding,
01:10:22some people still couldn't behave!
01:10:26It was Julian!
01:10:27He came up with this sick plan!
01:10:30You're lying!
01:10:31Mom, help me!
01:10:32There must be some kind of misunderstanding.
01:10:35What misunderstanding?
01:10:36You told me to drug Clara and take her
01:10:37just to humiliate Ethan.
01:10:39Once the scandal broke,
01:10:40the board would force him out!
01:10:41Don't start turning on each other yet.
01:10:43I'm settling every score tonight.
01:10:45Noah Reed,
01:10:46as of this moment,
01:10:47you are fired from Cole Group.
01:10:49You can't do this to me!
01:10:50I was forced!
01:10:51Here are the transaction records
01:10:53showing Julie and Chloe
01:10:54running an illegal investment scheme
01:10:56disguised as investments.
01:10:57Old man,
01:10:58take a good look at the woman
01:10:59sleeping next to you.
01:11:00You...
01:11:01You two!
01:11:02Hasn't the Cole family
01:11:03given you enough?
01:11:03Now you're running
01:11:04an illegal scheme too?
01:11:06Were you trying to burn
01:11:07this whole family down?
01:11:09No!
01:11:09No!
01:11:10No!
01:11:11What the...
01:11:11No!
01:11:11No!
01:11:12Save whatever you have to say
01:11:13for the police.
01:11:14Take them away!
01:11:15Leo!
01:11:16Say something!
01:11:17I'm your wife!
01:11:18Dad!
01:11:19I'm your son!
01:11:20You can't just stand there
01:11:21and let them take me!
01:11:31I didn't do anything.
01:11:32I was just...
01:11:33The poolside security footage
01:11:35is playing on the big screen outside.
01:11:38Ethan,
01:11:38I was only afraid
01:11:39she'd fool you.
01:11:40Shut up!
01:11:40You don't get to say her name.
01:11:42Even so,
01:11:42she's still just a secretary.
01:11:43What right does she have
01:11:44to marry into the Cole family?
01:11:46Don't you love being
01:11:47on camera?
01:11:48Tonight,
01:11:48everyone gets to watch you.
01:11:52Turn it off!
01:11:53Turn all of it off!
01:11:57She's Clara Bennett
01:11:58because I spent
01:11:59five years looking for her.
01:12:00She's the girl I protected
01:12:01when we were kids.
01:12:02She's the one I chose.
01:12:04My only childhood sweetheart.
01:12:06My first love.
01:12:06Don't be scared.
01:12:08It's all over now.
01:12:09I remember everything.
01:12:11You were the one
01:12:12by my side all along, Ethan.
01:12:14It was me.
01:12:16I'm taking you home.
01:12:20The wedding goes on!
01:12:30Ladies and gentlemen,
01:12:31tonight we witness
01:12:32a love once lost
01:12:33and found again.
01:12:34We also witness
01:12:35two hearts
01:12:35finding their way back
01:12:36to each other
01:12:37after everything.
01:12:39Now,
01:12:39let's give this moment
01:12:40to the two people
01:12:41who matter most tonight.
01:12:42You said you'd take me home.
01:12:44Do you still mean it?
01:12:45I've meant it
01:12:46since the day
01:12:46you grabbed my shirt
01:12:47as a little girl.
01:12:51I'm going to go to the show.
01:12:52I'm going to go to the show.
01:12:52Ethan,
01:12:53this time I'm not running.
01:12:55I love you.
01:12:57I love you too.
01:13:01Losing you once
01:13:02was more than enough.
01:13:03Let's applaud
01:13:04the bride and groom.
01:13:05May they never part again
01:13:06and spend the rest
01:13:07of their lives
01:13:08walking only towards
01:13:09each other.
