00:00I wanted the most dangerous billionaire in the world to fall in love with me,
00:04but because of an accident, he mistook me for his mother.
00:07As the youngest senior consultant at the top relationship repair agency, Heartline Advisor,
00:13my colleagues could analyze men and repair broken marriages,
00:16and make unfaithful husbands kneel before their wives again.
00:19But me, someone who had studied the psychology of love for more than five years,
00:24I had never even been in a real relationship.
00:26So when my supervisor mocked me in front of everyone in the conference room,
00:31Scarlett, you are the biggest joke in our agency.
00:34Never loved, yet she teaches others about love?
00:38The entire office fell silent.
00:40To prove my ability, I looked at her arrogant face and made a crazy decision.
00:44I would challenge the billionaire least likely to fall in love,
00:48Julian Everhart, the heir of the Everhart family, the CEO of Everhart Global.
00:53Everyone in the city knew that he was an emotionless monster.
00:56The media called him the coldest golden heir of Ravenhaust.
01:00None of his previous partners lasted more than three months.
01:03Not because those women were not beautiful enough,
01:05but because he was incapable of giving his true heart.
01:09Some people said that his mind contained only profits and numbers.
01:12Perfect.
01:13That was exactly my target.
01:16I wanted to prove to everyone,
01:17a true relationship expert doesn't need romantic experience to prove their ability.
01:22They only need to change the unchangeable.
01:24So, I spent three entire months infiltrating Everhart Global.
01:29I became a cleaner in Julian Everhart's office.
01:32Then, I seekly took out the $30,000 fragrance.
01:35Rumor had it this fragrance could make anyone fall in love in 10 seconds.
01:39I turned on the smart humiditaire system in Julian's office.
01:42I poured the entire bottle of fragrance inside.
01:45Then I waited.
01:4610 seconds.
01:48One minute?
01:49Five minutes?
01:50There was no reaction at all.
01:52That shouldn't be happening.
01:53But just as I was about to leave, the office door suddenly opened.
01:58My entire body froze.
02:01Julian Everhart was the standing there.
02:03A black suit and a golf club in his hand.
02:07It was the first time I had ever been this close to him.
02:10His face was so handsome that he seemed unreal.
02:13But his eyes held no warmth at all.
02:15Scarlet Voss.
02:16He called out my name.
02:18My heart sank.
02:20I was finished.
02:21My identity had been exposed.
02:24Julian slowly walked into the office.
02:28Why does a cleaner know my office password?
02:31I quickly thought of an answer.
02:33I can explain.
02:35Explain?
02:36You installed an unknown device in my office.
02:39And secretly put something into my air system.
02:43What explanation do you think I want to hear?
02:45Julian, you misunderstood.
02:47I was only conducting a relationship experiment.
02:50You used me as an experiment?
02:53I realized things might be more serious than I had imagined.
02:57Technically, it's an experiment on love psychology.
03:01Before I could finish speaking, Julian had already raised the golf club.
03:07I turned around and ran.
03:09That day, all the employees in Evertower witnessed an unbelievable scene.
03:14Their always calm CEO was chasing a female cleaner.
03:18I ran all the way from the 18th floor to the elevator.
03:22A cold voice came from behind me.
03:24Scarlet Voss.
03:26If you walk out today,
03:28I guarantee you will never appear in any company in Raven Health again.
03:33I grunted my teeth.
03:34A billionaire chasing a woman down 18 floors would make you look even more embarrassing if people found out.
03:41I rushed into the elevator.
03:43The elevator doors had just closed.
03:45The next second, the entire building suddenly shook violently.
03:49A massive explosion came from above.
03:52The elevator suddenly stopped.
03:54The lights flickered wildly.
03:56I grabbed the handrail.
03:58My expression changed instantly.
04:00An accident.
04:02The elevator cables had broken.
04:04A few seconds later,
04:06the elevator began descending again.
04:08But the speed became faster and faster.
04:11Finally, with a deafening crash,
04:14glass shattered.
04:16The elevator slammed into the bottom floor.
04:18The alarm echoed throughout the entire lobby.
04:21I did not know how long I had been unconscious.
04:24When I opened my eyes,
04:26the entire hallway was already in ruins.
04:30Smoke.
04:31Broken glass.
04:33Collapsed walls.
04:35And the just been trying to catch me?
04:37And the man who had just been trying at my felt far away
04:40was now lying not far away.
04:43Julian Everhart.
04:45Eyes closed.
04:46His black suit torn.
04:47The once untouchable billionaire now looked as helpless as an ordinary person.
04:52I slowly stood up.
04:53I checked to make sure I was not seriously injured.
04:56Then I looked at him.
04:57This was the perfect chance to escape.
04:58Just as I was about to leave.
05:00Suddenly, his hand grabbed my ankle.
05:02Julian opened his eyes.
05:04Those eyes that were usually cold and emotionless now carried a trace of confusion.
05:08Mommy.
05:09My entire body falled instantly.
05:11I looked down at him.
05:12I wondered if I had hit my head and lost my mind.
05:15This man, the man who had just chased me with a golf club.
05:18Mommy.
05:18Was now holding onto my leg.
05:20Calling me mommy?
05:21There was only one thought left in my mind.
05:23I was doomed.
05:24That $30,000 love fragrance?
05:26It might really have a problem.
05:28It did not make him fall in love with me.
05:30It had burned out his brain.
05:32Before I could even react, footsteps came from a distant.
05:35A group of bodyguards in black suits rushed out.
05:38The woman at the front, 10 centimeter of high heels.
05:41She was dressed in a high-end custom gown.
05:43Her face was filled with anger.
05:45Evelyn Stinclair.
05:46She saw Julian lying on the ground.
05:49Then she saw me.
05:50Scarlet Voss!
05:51What exactly did you do to Julian?
05:54I did nothing.
05:55He might just have something wrong with his brain.
05:58Julian suddenly stood up.
06:00He stepped in front of me.
06:01Don't bully mommy.
06:02His voice was childish, yet strangely firm.
06:05The entire hallway fell into deathly silence.
06:09If someone told me I'd one day hide Ravenhild's richest man in my apartment,
06:12I'd think they were insane.
06:14But now, I might be the crazy one.
06:16Because now Ravenhild's most powerful man,
06:18the ruler of Everhorn Global, Julian Everhart,
06:21a man worth hundreds of billions of dollars.
06:23The city's richest man sat on my tiny apartment floor,
06:27clutching an old stuffed toy.
06:30Mommy?
06:31I sat there with my cheap coffee,
06:33fighting the urge to throw it at him.
06:34I resisted the urge to throw the coffee at his face.
06:37Julian?
06:38What did mommy call me?
06:40Julian, he frowned,
06:42clearly unhappy with that name.
06:44I am your child.
06:46You are 30 years old.
06:48I am 26.
06:51So you should take care of me.
06:52I closed my eyes.
06:54I told myself,
06:55Stay calm.
06:55Scarlet, you are a professional relationship repair consultant.
06:59You've handled countless complicated relationships.
07:01You can't lose it over an injured billionaire.
07:04I took out my phone.
07:05I searched for all information about brain injuries,
07:08but no condition could explain
07:09why an adult would wake up and believe a stranger was his mother.
07:13Even stranger.
07:14Aside from that, Julian seemed completely normal.
07:17He knew my name and who I was.
07:19He even knew some things about Everhart Group.
07:21But whenever it involved himself,
07:23he would show a confused of expression,
07:25as if a crucial part of his memory was missing.
07:27Julian?
07:28Hmm?
07:28Do you know who you are?
07:30He thought for a while.
07:32I don't know.
07:33Do you know Everhart Global?
07:35Yes.
07:36Do you know that you are the CEO there?
07:38He remained silent for a few seconds.
07:40What is a CEO?
07:41I was completely certain.
07:43Something was truly wrong with this man.
07:45Just then,
07:49my phone rang.
07:50The caller ID showed
07:52my supervisor from Heartline Advisor,
07:55Miss Martha.
07:56I hesitated for a second.
07:58Then I answered the call.
07:59The next second,
08:01an angry voice came from the phone.
08:03Scarlet Boss,
08:04do you know what you have done?
08:05Her voice was almost piercing my eardrums.
08:08You broke into Everhart Tower.
08:09You put strange things inside Julian Everhart's office.
08:12The entire Everhart family is looking for you.
08:14You are finished.
08:16I glanced at Julian sitting on the floor.
08:18I lowered my voice.
08:19It's not what you think.
08:22Isn't it?
08:23Evelyn Stinclair has publicly accused you.
08:25She said you deliberately caused the accident
08:26to get close to Julian.
08:27She said you deliberately caused the accident
08:29to get close to Julian.
08:30Now all the news outlets are saying
08:32that you are a dangerous stalker.
08:34What did she say?
08:35She claimed Julian was mentally unstable
08:37and needed urgent treatment.
08:40Where will he receive treatment?
08:41There was a brief silence.
08:43Martha, tell me,
08:45where is she planning to send Julian?
08:46Blackstone Private Recovery Center.
08:48Everyone in Raven House knew
08:49it was not an ordinary hospital.
08:51It was a private facility
08:52that only served the ultra-wealthy.
08:54However, its true owner
08:56was Julian's uncle, Vincent Everhart,
08:58the man who had always coveted control
09:00of Everhart Group.
09:01Julian's memory loss was their perfect chance.
09:03I looked at the man sitting on the floor.
09:05He was smiling at me.
09:06Mommy, I'm hungry.
09:08I went to the restroom and changed my clothes.
09:11Change your clothes before we leave.
09:12What are we eating?
09:13I looked at my bank account balance.
09:15There was less than $50 left.
09:18Instant noodles.
09:19What are instant noodles?
09:20He froze.
09:21For the first time, I realized,
09:23a billionaire might truly know nothing
09:25about ordinary people's lives.
09:27Half an hour later,
09:28at a convenience storep in Ravenhump's
09:29porous neighborhood,
09:30staring at the steaming bowl
09:31of instant noodles before him.
09:33This?
09:34Can this be eaten?
09:35I looked up.
09:36No.
09:37He sighed in relief.
09:38I continued.
09:39But you have no money.
09:40He fell silent.
09:41Then he lowered his head and started eating.
09:44The first bite, he frowned.
09:45The second bite, he paused.
09:47Three bites later, the bowl was empty.
09:49I looked at the empty bowl and couldn't help smiling.
09:51The Everhart heir, having his first $5 meal.
09:55It's delicious.
09:56For some reason, I suddenly felt he wasn't so annoying.
09:59But the next second, outside the convenience store,
10:02several black cars stopped.
10:04The doors opened.
10:05More a dozen people in black uniforms stepped out.
10:07The man leading them was Derek,
10:09Evelyn Sinclair's personal bodyguard.
10:11He pushed open the door.
10:13Mr. Julian, it's time to go back.
10:17I walked over.
10:18I stepped in front of Julian.
10:20He is not going with you.
10:22Miss Scarlet, you are now suspected of kidnapping
10:26the CEO of Everhart Group.
10:27If you refuse to cooperate,
10:29we can call the police immediately.
10:33Kidnapping?
10:34An adult sitting next to me,
10:36calmly eating a bowl of instant noodles?
10:38Do you think the police would believe that excuse?
10:40Derek did not answer.
10:41He waved his hand.
10:42All the bodyguards behind him stepped forward.
10:45My hand reached into my pocket.
10:46Inside were a mini camera and recording device.
10:49Do not come closer.
10:51A relationship consultant?
10:52Who do you think you can protect?
10:54His men rushed forward.
10:55I raised my hand.
10:56The two men at the front covered their eyes and fell.
10:58At the same time, Julian moved.
11:00He moved too fast for someone who had lost his memory.
11:03He grabbed one bodyguard's wrist.
11:05With a slight twist, the man dropped.
11:07That night, we finally escaped back to the apartment.
11:10I opened my computer, ready to investigate Vincent Everhart.
11:14But the moment I logged into the system,
11:16a red warning suddenly appeared on my account.
11:18Your bank account has been frozen.
11:20Suspicious financial transactions.
11:22My money.
11:23All of it had been frozen.
11:25Even the money I had left from the convenience store was frozen.
11:28Evelyn.
11:29She not only wanted to control Julian,
11:31she also wanted to make me disappear completely.
11:33Julian walked over.
11:35Looking at the computer screen,
11:37its expression changed.
11:39This code.
11:39I looked at him.
11:40What?
11:41He reached out.
11:42The next second,
11:43a complicated string of passwords was entered automatically.
11:46The computer screen immediately changed.
11:48A hidden file opened.
11:50Inside was a secret financial record.
11:52Account name,
11:53Evelyn Stamplan.
11:54Amount,
11:54$500,000.
11:55Date,
11:56three days ago.
11:57Julian,
11:58who exactly are you?
12:00I looked at the $500 million on the screen.
12:02I suddenly felt,
12:04things were far more dangerous than I had imagined.
12:06Because now the most powerful family in all of Ravenfield,
12:09was hunting down a billionaire who had lost his memory.
12:12And I,
12:12had become his only protector.
12:15I always thought that becoming the protector of a billionaire would be an extremely difficult task.
12:19But I never expected,
12:20the biggest challenge would not be protecting Julian Everhart.
12:22It would be stopping him from treating everything in my apartment as a toy.
12:25The next morning,
12:26when I woke up,
12:27I found that my kitchen had become a disaster area.
12:29The brand had been cut into spilled across the floor.
12:31And the man worth more than $100 billion was sitting at the dining table,
12:36carefully studying my old laptop.
12:38Julian.
12:39Mommy.
12:39First,
12:40do not call me mommy.
12:42Why?
12:42Because I am your protector.
12:44But you protect me.
12:46So?
12:46So you are mommy.
12:47I realized,
12:48was even harder than reasoning with cheating husbands.
12:51What were you doing just now?
12:53It's broken.
12:54My old computer.
12:55It ran like a product from the last entry.
12:57But,
12:58on the screen,
12:59the internal system of Everhart Global was open.
13:01I froze.
13:02Did you hack my computer?
13:03No.
13:04I just felt that it should open this way.
13:06I looked at him.
13:06My doubts grew stronger.
13:08That afternoon,
13:09I received an anonymous message.
13:11Want the truth about Julian?
13:12Meet me at the Old Harbor Warehouse at midnight.
13:15At 11.30pm,
13:16Julian and I arrived at the Old Harbor area.
13:19This place had been abandoned for years.
13:21The only sound in the distance was the sound of waves.
13:24Do not come out.
13:25No.
13:26Why?
13:26I need to protect mommy.
13:29Julian,
13:29you are the one who needs protection right now.
13:32But I don't want you to be in danger alone.
13:34At that moment,
13:35I actually did not know how to respond.
13:37In the end,
13:37I still let him come with me.
13:39We entered the warehouse.
13:40There was no one inside.
13:42Only an old computer remained.
13:44I turned on the computer.
13:45The screen automatically began playing a video.
13:48On the screen.
13:49It was Julian from three months ago.
13:51Sitting in an office.
13:52With a cold expression.
13:53Completely different of the person he was now.
13:55If you are watching this recording,
13:57it means my plan has failed.
13:59A plan?
14:00Uncle Vincent,
14:01I know you have always wanted to take Everheart Global away.
14:03Evelyn,
14:04I also know your true purpose for approaching me.
14:07But you made one mistake.
14:08You thought I would trust everyone around me.
14:10But in reality,
14:11I had already been investigating you.
14:12Julian had known all along?
14:14If something happens to me,
14:15do not trust anyone.
14:17Except for one woman.
14:18The screen paused.
14:19Then a name appeared.
14:20Scarlett Voss.
14:21What?
14:21Why was it me?
14:22I had never met the Julian from three months ago.
14:25Why was my name included in his secret plan?
14:27Just then,
14:28the warehouse lights suddenly went out.
14:30I quickly shut down the computer.
14:32Julian,
14:33we've been discovered.
14:35A man's voice sounded.
14:36Scarlett Voss.
14:37You are smarter than we expected.
14:39I recognize this voice, Derek.
14:42Hand Julian over.
14:44I can let you leave safely.
14:45Do you think I would believe you?
14:47You don't need to believe me.
14:49Because you have no choice.
14:51I tight my grip on there in my hand,
14:52or in my everything here.
14:53I had Diva recorded it.
14:55As long as I could get out,
14:56this would become a jumjus.
14:57But the next second,
14:58Derek suddenly rushed towards Julian.
14:59I stepped in front of him,
15:00but I underestimated his strength.
15:02He grabbed my wrist.
15:04Scarlett,
15:04you are only a relationship consultant.
15:06Don't throw your life away for a man.
15:08At that moment,
15:09his eyes suddenly changed.
15:11No long confused.
15:12No longer gentle.
15:13His voice was low.
15:15Take your filthy hand off my woman.
15:17Julian?
15:19Julian grabbed Derek's wrist.
15:20The sound of a bone breaking echoed.
15:23Derek screamed and fell to the ground,
15:25then fled with his people in panic.
15:27But at that moment,
15:29Julian suddenly covered his head.
15:30The next second,
15:31he collapsed into my arms,
15:33returning to that harmless version of himself.
15:36Mommy,
15:37my head hurts.
15:38The next morning,
15:39when I woke up,
15:40Julian had returned to his memory lost state,
15:42watching TV with a serious expression.
15:44Financial news was playing on the television.
15:46Everhart Global CEO Julian Everhart
15:48is suspected of having an abnormal mental state.
15:51The board of directors is currently considering
15:52temporarily taking over management of the company.
15:54According to internal sources,
15:56Vincent Everhart claimed Julian was unfit
15:58to continue as CEO.
15:59The company will initiate an emergency succession plan.
16:01As expected,
16:03they had already began their moves.
16:05At 10 in the morning,
16:06I received an anonymous email.
16:07There was only one photo inside.
16:09In the photo,
16:10it was my grandmother.
16:11She was standing outside a nursing home
16:13in the outskirts of Ravenhillst.
16:14Below the photo were the words,
16:16If you want her to keep living,
16:17bring Julian Everhart
16:19to the abandoned West Hollow factory at midnight.
16:22Do not call the police.
16:2411 o'clock at night,
16:25I prepared to leave.
16:26Just as I opened the door,
16:28Where are you going?
16:30I froze.
16:30To buy something.
16:31He stared at me.
16:33You're lying.
16:33How do you know?
16:34He frowned,
16:35as if he was trying hard to remember.
16:37Your eyes.
16:38When you're scared,
16:40you always fidget with the hem of your clothes.
16:42I fell silent.
16:43Someone kidnapped my grandmother.
16:45Who?
16:46Vincere's people.
16:47The air became silent.
16:48His gaze grew colder.
16:50They went after your family?
16:51I'll go with you.
16:52No!
16:53They want you to show up.
16:54If you go,
16:54they will control you.
16:55He suddenly reached out
16:57and held my hand.
16:58Scarlet.
16:58For the first time,
16:59he called me Scarlet.
17:01Not Mommy.
17:01Just Scarlet.
17:02I don't know why.
17:03I have forgotten many things.
17:05I don't know who I am,
17:06and I don't know what happened in the past.
17:08I know one thing.
17:09I cannot let them hurt you.
17:12Finally,
17:12I nodded.
17:13Okay,
17:14but you have to listen to me.
17:16Okay.
17:17Midnight.
17:17The abandoned West Hollow factory.
17:19This place used to be the largest steel manufacturing base in Ravenhelst.
17:23Now only abandoned buildings remain.
17:25We walked inside.
17:26In the center of the empty hall,
17:28a woman was sitting.
17:29Evelyn Sinclair.
17:30Scarlet.
17:31You really came.
17:32I looked around.
17:33Where is my grandmother?
17:35Evelyn did not answer.
17:36She only looked at Julian.
17:38Julian.
17:39Look at what you have become.
17:41For an ordinary woman,
17:42you actually became like this.
17:44Do you know?
17:45The old you never trusted any woman.
17:49But now,
17:50you are actually risking yourself for her?
17:54Slowly walking closer.
17:57Julian.
17:58Did you really think I ever loved you?
18:01Your wealth?
18:02Your status?
18:03Your surname?
18:06That is what I wanted.
18:08Love?
18:10That is just something used to fool idiots.
18:14I pressed the recording button hidden in my pocket.
18:16Perfect.
18:17Evelyn did not notice.
18:19As long as Vincent becomes chairman,
18:21I will become Mrs. Everhart.
18:23And you?
18:24You will stay in Blackstone Recovery Center forever.
18:27As soon as she finished speaking,
18:29more than 20 men in black appeared.
18:31Scarlet.
18:32Hand Julian over.
18:33Otherwise,
18:34your grandmother won't survive tonight.
18:36But I was not afraid.
18:37They thought,
18:37I was just a woman who only studied love.
18:39But they did not know.
18:40A great relationship and violence is best one thing,
18:43seeing through people's lives.
18:44And tonight,
18:45the true faces of everyone here
18:46had already been recorded by me.
18:48What are you laughing at?
18:49I'm laughing because you are too confident.
18:51From the moment you spoke,
18:52your crimes were already recorded.
18:54Has already been completely saved.
18:56Catch her!
18:56And I knew.
18:57The real battle had only just begun.
19:00More than 20 men in black stood around us,
19:02holding weapons and blocking every exit.
19:04I knew I had no way out.
19:05Evelyn Sinclair stood at the center,
19:07still poised and arrogant.
19:09Scarlet.
19:10Evelyn slowly walked toward me.
19:12She stopped in front of me.
19:13She glanced at the phone in my hand
19:15and gave a mocking smile.
19:16You really think one recording can change anything?
19:19In Ravenhest?
19:21No one believes someone like you.
19:23Especially a woman who tried to get close to the Everhart Teed.
19:26Do you know?
19:27Three months ago,
19:28when Julian first investigated your information,
19:31I knew you would become a problem.
19:33What?
19:34Evelyn smiled.
19:35Did you think entering Everhart Tower was just a coincidence?
19:38Did you really think you had fooled everyone?
19:40What do you mean?
19:42She turned and looked at Julian.
19:44Tell her.
19:44Tell her why you appeared in his plan.
19:47I turned to the man beside me,
19:49but his eyes showed a moment of confusion.
19:51I...
19:52As if something was struggling inside his mind.
19:54It was the first time I had seen him show such an expression.
19:57He did not look like the CEO who was born to control everything.
20:00He looked like a man lost in darkness,
20:03searching for his past.
20:05Looks like he still hasn't remembered.
20:07Then let me help you remember.
20:09Scarlet Voss.
20:10You did not enter his office by accident.
20:12Julian had already investigated you three months ago.
20:15My breathing stopped for a moment.
20:17Why?
20:17Because you were the only person he believed might not betray him.
20:21Me?
20:22You must be joking.
20:23Of course you don't remember.
20:24Because when you first met him,
20:26you didn't even know who he was.
20:29At that time, he was injured.
20:31You saved him.
20:32My mind went completely blank.
20:34Some blurry images suddenly flashed through my mind.
20:37Three months ago,
20:38a man covered in blood.
20:39I had once helped a stranger,
20:41but that man was wearing a hat.
20:42I never saw his face clearly.
20:44So it turned out.
20:46Everything did not begin with that bottle of fragrance.
20:48Nor did it begin when I entered Everhearth Tower.
20:51Much earlier,
20:52fate had already brought us together.
20:54Enough.
20:55A deep voice interrupted Evelyn.
20:57Julian?
20:58You have said enough.
20:59I looked at him.
21:00I didn't know why.
21:01At this moment,
21:01I suddenly felt an unfamiliar sense of pressure.
21:04That familiar yet unfamiliar man was coming back.
21:07His shoulders tightened slightly.
21:09The confusion in his eyes slowly disappeared.
21:11Replacing it was the coldness I saw when I first meet him.
21:15Sharp.
21:16Dangerous.
21:17Evelyn.
21:18You have said many things you shouldn't have.
21:22Impossible.
21:23Have you not still not recovered?
21:25Julian did not answer.
21:26He simply looked at her.
21:27That gaze.
21:28It reminded me of the first time I saw him at Everhearth Tower.
21:31You thought the elevator accident made me lose everything?
21:34But you were wrong.
21:35What I lost was only part of my memory,
21:38not my judgment.
21:39Derek's expression changed.
21:41Mr. Julian?
21:42You should call me Mr. Julian.
21:44Not the useless man you thought you could control.
21:47Derek suddenly charged forward.
21:49He wanted to attack,
21:50while Julian had not fully recovered.
21:52But,
21:52he was wrong.
21:53The moment Derek got close,
21:55he grabbed Derek's arm.
21:56His movements were clean and precise.
21:58The next second,
22:00Dare was violently thrown onto the ground.
22:02All the men in black stopped.
22:04Julian slowly walked over to me.
22:06Are you hurt?
22:08I looked at him.
22:09Suddenly,
22:10I didn't know why.
22:11My eyes began to feel warm.
22:13You,
22:13you really recovered?
22:15Yes,
22:15I remembered.
22:16Everything.
22:17I was about to speak,
22:18but he held my hand.
22:19Scarlet,
22:20I'm sorry.
22:22Why?
22:22His eyes fell on me.
22:24There was no longer the Demi as a Hetch aversion.
22:26Instead,
22:26it was the real Julian Everthide,
22:28a clear-minded man.
22:29Because during this time,
22:30I made you protect me.
22:32You worked so hard.
22:33My heart skipped a beat.
22:35But the next second,
22:36police sirens suddenly sounded outside the factory.
22:39Evelyn's face instantly turned pale.
22:41She finally realized
22:42she had lost.
22:44Not to Julian,
22:45but to a woman she had never taken seriously.
22:47The game is over.
22:48Now,
22:49it's my turn to settle the score.
22:51The police sirens outside the West Hollow abandoned factory grew closer.
22:55Red and blue lights shunned through the broken windows.
22:58Evelyn Sinclair stood there.
22:59The calmness on her face finally disappeared.
23:03She looked at Julian.
23:05Impossible.
23:06How could you recover so quickly?
23:08Julian did not answer.
23:10The man who,
23:11after losing his memory,
23:12would hold onto my arm
23:14and seriously ask me what instant noodles were,
23:17had disappeared.
23:18In his place,
23:19the feared Everheard Field,
23:21standing atop Ravenhill's business in Timus.
23:24I suddenly felt a little uncomfortable
23:26because I had spent these days protecting him.
23:28I even questioned my own sanity countless times
23:32because he kept calling me mommy.
23:34But now,
23:35he had recovered.
23:36He remembered who he was.
23:38And I suddenly realized,
23:40the distance between us,
23:42it felt like we were back where we started.
23:45Julian,
23:46are you really going to destroy me for this woman?
23:49She pointed at me.
23:51Who does she think she is?
23:53Why does she deserve to stand beside you?
23:56Before I could say anything,
23:57Julian had already stepped in front of me.
23:59Why does she deserve it?
24:01Because when everyone betrayed me,
24:03she chose to protect me.
24:04Because she saved me,
24:06even when she didn't know who I was.
24:08Because when I lost my memory,
24:09everyone wanted to use me.
24:11She was the only one who treated me like an ordinary person.
24:14I looked at his back.
24:15For the first time,
24:16when this man spoke,
24:18he truly carried an overwhelming presence.
24:21Evelyn's expression grew darker and darker.
24:24So what?
24:25You fell in love with her?
24:27Yes.
24:29Including me.
24:30His eyes no longer carried the dependence of the man whose memory.
24:34No teasing.
24:35Only certainty.
24:36Scarlet,
24:37I don't know when it started,
24:39but I know.
24:40If the person standing here today wasn't you,
24:43I might have already lost.
24:45I quickly looked away,
24:47reminding myself,
24:49this was not the time to listen to sweet words,
24:51but there were still enemies all around us.
24:54The police soon entered the factory,
24:56and the person leading them
24:57was the investigator Julian had arranged beforehand.
25:01It turned out,
25:02before recovering his memories,
25:04Julian had already prepared a backup plan.
25:07He knew Vincent and Erilyn
25:08would not let any opportunity slip away.
25:11So three months ago,
25:13he had secretly launched an investigation.
25:15After the investigator had secured the scene,
25:18Derek and all the bodyguards were taken away.
25:20Evelyn did not resist.
25:22You knew from the beginning.
25:24You always knew what Vincent and I were doing.
25:27Yes.
25:28Then why didn't you expose us?
25:30Because I wanted to know,
25:32in front of benefits and interests,
25:35how many people would choose betrayal.
25:37Those words reminded me of the first time I saw him.
25:40That man had never believed in feelings,
25:42because he had seen too many disguises.
25:46That night,
25:47we left the police station.
25:49Julian's private driver was already waiting.
25:51A black car was parked by the roadside.
25:54Compared with the miserable escape in a garbage truck days ago,
25:58everything now felt like it belonged to another world.
26:01I got into the car,
26:03watching the city lights quickly move backward outside the window.
26:06I suddenly didn't know what to say.
26:09After a long silence,
26:11Are you angry?
26:12I turned to him.
26:13Why?
26:15Because I recovered my memories.
26:17Why would I be angry about that?
26:19Because after recovering my memories,
26:21I am no longer the person who needs your protection.
26:24He was right.
26:25Actually,
26:25I was a little uncomfortable.
26:27These past few days,
26:29Julian and I escaped together,
26:30hid together,
26:32faced danger together.
26:33Back then,
26:35he belonged only to me.
26:37But now,
26:38he had returned to his own world.
26:40He was Julian Everhart,
26:41and I was Scarlett Voss,
26:44an ordinary relationship consultant.
26:47Julian,
26:48shouldn't you return to Everhart Tower now?
26:50You want me to leave?
26:51No,
26:52it's just,
26:54we were never from the same world.
26:57The car fell silent,
26:58for a long time.
27:00Just when I thought he wouldn't speak,
27:02he suddenly held my hand.
27:05Scarlett,
27:06do you know what I hate the most?
27:07I don't know.
27:09People only see my wealth.
27:10They see the Everhart name.
27:12They see my position.
27:13But no one sees Julian,
27:15until you.
27:16When you first met me,
27:18you didn't know I was a billionaire.
27:20You didn't know who I was.
27:22You only thought,
27:23that injured person needed help.
27:26So don't tell me,
27:27that we are not from the same world.
27:29Because during these days,
27:31for the first time,
27:32I felt like an ordinary person.
27:35But at that moment,
27:35a news notification appeared.
27:37Everhart Global Emergency Board meeting convened.
27:40Vincent claims Julian is mentally unstable,
27:42and seeks interim CEO control.
27:44His eyes instantly turned cold.
27:46No.
27:48He has already lost.
27:50Only he doesn't know it yet.
27:52What are you going to do?
27:54Tomorrow morning,
27:55I will return to Everhart Tower,
27:57and take back everything that belongs to me.
28:00You're coming with me.
28:01Me?
28:02Yes.
28:03Why?
28:04Because everyone believes,
28:06you are just a cleaner.
28:07Just an ordinary woman.
28:09Just someone who accidentally entered
28:11the Everhart family's world.
28:12I want them to know,
28:14how terribly wrong they were.
28:15The next morning,
28:17Ravenhill's financial media
28:18gathered outside Everham Tower.
28:20Today,
28:21Everham Group would hold
28:22its most important board meeting ever.
28:24Everyone believed,
28:25Julian Everhart had failed.
28:28An heir with an unstable mental estate.
28:30A wealthy man betrayed by his fiance.
28:33A loser about to be replaced by his uncle.
28:36But they did not know.
28:38The real Julian Everhart,
28:40had returned.
28:41And by his side,
28:43stood the woman they looked down
28:45upon the most.
28:46Scarlet Voss.
28:48Because the man they thought
28:50would never appear again,
28:51was wearing a black suit.
28:53With a cold gaze,
28:55he walked step by step
28:57toward Everhart Tower.
28:58Then,
28:59he stopped.
29:01He took my hand,
29:02in front of all the cameras.
29:04Starting today,
29:05Scarlet Voss,
29:07is the only person recognized
29:09by Everhart Group.
29:10Everhart Tower.
29:11Everhart Tower stood as Ravenhill's
29:13symbol of wealth and power.
29:15The reporters frantically
29:17pressed their camera shutters.
29:18For the past three months,
29:20I used to enter this place
29:22every day pushing a cleaning cart.
29:24I kept my head down,
29:25cleaning furniture I was afraid to touch.
29:27But now,
29:28I stood here,
29:30standing face to face
29:31with the Everharts.
29:32The elevator doors opened.
29:35I followed behind Julian
29:36as we walked out,
29:37outside the top floor conference room.
29:40The board members
29:41filled the area.
29:42Everyone's expression changed.
29:44Some were shocked.
29:45Some were afraid.
29:47Others quickly lowered their heads,
29:49because they knew
29:50the true master had returned.
29:53The doors of the conference room opened.
29:55Inside sat more than
29:57a dozen core shareholders
29:58of the group.
29:59The man sitting in the main seat
30:00was Vincent Everhart,
30:02Julian's uncle,
30:03and the mastermind
30:04behind this conspiracy.
30:06If someone did not know the truth,
30:08anyone would think
30:08he was a kind and caring elder.
30:11But I knew
30:12this man's kindness
30:13was merely beautifully packaged poison.
30:16Seeing Julian appear,
30:17Julian,
30:18what brings you here?
30:19I heard you haven't
30:21fully recovered yet.
30:22Didn't the doctor advise you
30:23to continue resting?
30:24Yes, Julian.
30:25Your health is the most important thing.
30:27The company cannot be affected
30:29by personal matters.
30:30Hearing this,
30:31I almost laughed.
30:32These people were ready
30:33to remove Julian yesterday,
30:35yet today they pretended to care.
30:37High society excelled
30:38at changing sides
30:39when interests shifted.
30:40They quickly changed their position,
30:43watching Vincent.
30:44Uncle,
30:45you seem disappointed
30:46to see me return.
30:47What are you talking about?
30:51I'm saying
30:52your plan
30:53has failed.
30:56Julian,
30:57I don't know
30:57what you have been through,
30:58but your mental state
31:00really is-
31:00Stop!
31:01Stop using my mental condition
31:03to hide your ambition.
31:04You know better than anyone.
31:06I was never crazy.
31:07Where is the evidence?
31:09You say I framed you.
31:10Where is your proof?
31:12Based only on a few words
31:14from a woman?
31:15Everyone's eyes fell on me.
31:16That look,
31:17I knew it too well.
31:18Doubt,
31:19contempt,
31:20denial.
31:20They believed I was here
31:22only because Julian
31:23had feelings for me,
31:24but they did not know.
31:25The thing I was best at
31:27was handling
31:28question relationships,
31:29because my profession
31:31was built around
31:32studying why humans lie.
31:35I walked to the conference table.
31:37I turned on the projector.
31:39Everyone,
31:40if you want to know the truth,
31:41I can tell you,
31:42but I hope after watching this,
31:44you won't regret it.
31:46The first piece of information
31:47was Evelyn Sinclair's
31:49overseas account records.
31:50The second piece of information
31:52was the abnormal
31:53fund transfer records
31:55of Everhart Global.
31:56The third item,
31:57the complete
31:58West Hollow Factory recording.
32:00These things are fake.
32:01You are an outsider.
32:03How could you possibly obtain
32:05internal company information?
32:06I looked at him,
32:08because your LOPOs
32:09are too obvious.
32:10What do you mean?
32:11I walked beside the screen,
32:13pointing at one
32:14of the fund transfers.
32:15You habitually use
32:16the same transfer method.
32:18Every time you move assets,
32:19the money passes
32:20through three shell companies.
32:21The first layer hides
32:22the source of the funds.
32:23The second layer erases
32:24the transaction records.
32:26The third layer transfers it
32:27into the final account.
32:28This method is very secure,
32:30but you made one mistake.
32:33Vince's expression changed.
32:35What mistake?
32:37The greatest weakness of criminals
32:38is repeating the methods
32:40that once brought them success.
32:42Several shelders began
32:43whispering among themselves,
32:45because they knew
32:46if these pieces of evidence
32:48were real,
32:49Vincent would be
32:50completely finished.
32:51Enough!
32:52A relationship consultant.
32:54What gives you the right
32:56to accuse me here?
32:57Do you know what business is?
32:59Mr. Vincent,
33:00you may have misunderstood
33:01one thing.
33:02My profession is not
33:03teaching people
33:04how to fall in love.
33:05My profession
33:06is seeing through
33:08people's true intentions.
33:10Why does a man
33:11suddenly become cold?
33:12Why does a woman
33:14suddenly change?
33:15Why does a business partner
33:17suddenly betray someone?
33:18All these things
33:19are human nature.
33:21And business
33:22is also human nature
33:24at its core.
33:25The conference room door
33:27suddenly opened.
33:28Several security guards
33:29rushed in.
33:31Sorry.
33:32According to
33:33Mr. Vincent's orders,
33:34Mr. Julian
33:35and this lady
33:36must leave.
33:38Quay beer
33:38in the weight
33:39and famer
33:39stringy
33:40begin from tense.
33:41I looked at
33:42Vincent.
33:43Julian,
33:44do you think
33:45you've won
33:45just because
33:46you came back?
33:47This is
33:48Everhart Tower
33:49and here
33:51is my territory.
33:53Uncle,
33:53you still
33:54don't understand.
33:56What?
33:56Julian
33:57slowly sat down.
33:58Your biggest mistake
34:00was thinking
34:01before I returned.
34:03I made no preparations.
34:05The Dave screen
34:05in the conference room
34:06threw and lit it up.
34:07A new document
34:08appeared on it.
34:09The title contained
34:10only a few words.
34:12This is impossible.
34:14How could this agreement
34:15be in your hands?
34:16Because three years ago,
34:18I knew you would
34:19never be satisfied
34:19with being just
34:20an acting director.
34:21So I had my lawyers
34:22prepare a defensive agreement
34:24in advance.
34:24if any Everhout
34:26illegally sought
34:26control of the company,
34:28the trust would activate,
34:29triggering a new
34:30vote review.
34:31They finally understood.
34:32From the very beginning,
34:34Vincent had never
34:35truly won.
34:36You were waiting
34:37for me?
34:38No.
34:39I was waiting
34:40for you to reveal
34:40your true intentions.
34:42Because I wanted
34:43to know
34:44who exactly
34:45wanted to destroy
34:46my family.
34:49Julian,
34:50do you really think
34:51there is still
34:51such a thing
34:52as family here?
34:54No.
34:54After your father died,
34:56the Everhart name
34:58had already become
34:59a battlefield.
35:00Everyone wants power.
35:02You think you're better
35:03than everyone else?
35:04You were just lucky.
35:06Born into the position
35:07of heir.
35:08Suddenly,
35:09I felt this man
35:10was pathetic.
35:11His entire life
35:12was spent chasing
35:13what Julian possessed.
35:14Wealth,
35:15status,
35:15recognition.
35:16But he would
35:17never understand.
35:18What truly made
35:19Julian powerful
35:20was not his family name.
35:21It was himself.
35:24Vincent Everhart,
35:25you are suspected
35:26of business fraud,
35:28illegal transfer
35:28of company assets,
35:30and attempting
35:30to harm the group's heir.
35:31You are officially
35:32under arrest.
35:33Are you really
35:34going to send me
35:35to prison?
35:39From the moment
35:39you ordered
35:40the elevator
35:40sabotage,
35:42between us,
35:43there was already
35:44no family left.
35:48after the board
35:49meeting ended,
35:50the news spread
35:51everywhere.
35:52In just one day,
35:53my name appeared
35:55in every business
35:56headline.
35:57But I still
35:58wasn't used to it.
35:59That night,
36:00at the top floor
36:01of Everhart's tower,
36:02I stood before
36:03the floor-to-ceiling
36:04windows,
36:05looking at the
36:06entire city.
36:07What are you
36:08thinking about?
36:09A few days ago,
36:10my supervisor
36:11was still calling me
36:12useless in the office.
36:13and now,
36:14the entire
36:15Ravenhals knows me.
36:16You don't like it?
36:18No.
36:20It just feels unreal.
36:22Scarlet,
36:22do you know why
36:23I chose to trust you?
36:24Why?
36:25Because you never
36:26changed the way
36:26you treated me
36:27because of my identity.
36:29When you first met me,
36:31you complained
36:32that I wasted water.
36:33Later,
36:34you made me eat
36:35cheap instant noodles.
36:36You even made me
36:38sleep in a garbage truck.
36:39Can we please
36:40stop bringing
36:41those things up?
36:43But that was
36:44the happiest time
36:45of my life.
36:46The next day,
36:49it was a share
36:50transfer agreement.
36:5115% of Everwaite
36:52Group's shares.
36:54Beneficiary,
36:54Scarlet Voss.
36:56Are you crazy?
36:58This is too much.
36:59It's not a reward.
37:01It is your value.
37:02I only helped you
37:03investigate the truth.
37:04No.
37:05You helped me
37:05win back Everhart.
37:07Without you,
37:07I might still have
37:09been able to deal
37:10with Vincent.
37:10But I wouldn't have
37:11known who deserved
37:13to stand beside me.
37:14From today onward,
37:16you are not the woman
37:17behind Everhart Group.
37:18You are my partner.
37:19Julian,
37:20did you forget something?
37:22What?
37:24I used to be
37:25your cleaner.
37:26So?
37:27Now you'd better
37:28show some respect
37:29to your former boss.
37:32Yes, boss.
37:34Boss Scarlet.
37:36Three months later,
37:38Julian and I
37:39went on a beach vacation.
37:40Sunlight poured
37:41over the beach.
37:42Waves gently
37:43touched the shore.
37:44Looking at the ocean
37:45in the distance,
37:46suddenly I felt
37:48those past experiences
37:49were like a ridiculous dream.
37:52A mistaken bottle
37:53of perfume.
37:54A failed mission.
37:55A billionaire
37:56who lost his memory.
37:58And in the end,
37:59changed my life.
38:03Scarlet?
38:04I glanced at him.
38:06You
38:07are the CEO
38:08of Everhart Group.
38:10And now,
38:11your biggest
38:12daily task
38:13is applying
38:14sunscreen for me?
38:15This
38:16is my core
38:17responsibility.
38:18I laughed.
38:19What kind
38:20of core
38:20responsibility?
38:22Making my boss
38:24happy.
38:24Boss?
38:25Yes.
38:27Didn't you
38:27always say
38:28that I was
38:29your employee?
38:31So?
38:32An employee
38:32is requesting
38:33a long-term
38:34contract.
38:35Duration?
38:36A lifetime.
38:37What about
38:38the salary?
38:40All of my
38:40assets.
38:41Is that enough?
38:43Barely.
38:44The next second,
38:45he lowered his head
38:46and kissed me.
38:47The sea breeze
38:48passed by.
38:49I fondly remembered
38:50the night I first
38:51met him.
38:52The man
38:52covered in wounds
38:53who held my hand
38:55and called me
38:56mommy.
38:56Who could have
38:57imagined?
38:58Back then,
38:59I thought something
38:59was wrong with his
39:00mind.
39:01But I never knew
39:02that he would
39:03become the greatest
39:04surprise of my
39:05life.
39:06Oh, yeah.
39:07You
