00:30You said you wanted to break off your engagement with her and marry me instead.
00:35Hey Sophie, pay attention to your wording. Clay is my fiancé and also my ATM machine.
00:40Don't hint you're disturbing her. Ending the engagement's impossible. Stop it.
00:45George, you damn scumbag! You've been deceiving me all along.
00:48Today I'm gonna show you just how impressive I am!
00:52George! It really makes me feel sick. I hereby declare that our engagement is null and void.
00:59Dear Chloe, forgive me. I just made a common man's mistake.
01:02Your grandfather said you'll be disqualified as heir if you can't bear a child.
01:06How could you give birth after cancelling the engagement? Self-reproduce? Don't joke.
01:14Oh dear George. May you still grant little Sophie's wishes.
01:19Goodbye. Good be to Mushy's.
01:22What's on your mind? I strive to catch you cheating wise change for one sentence.
01:26We've called off the engagement. As for the child my grandfather mentioned,
01:30simply select a genetically superior. It's better to be obedient and well behaved.
01:35Beautiful lady, may I have the honor to buy you a drink?
01:40Sir, your flirting technique is too clumsied. I suggest you go back and learn it again.
01:47Okay, okay.
02:02Cutie move aside. Hey, you look like Rio. Rio, is that you? Come to marry me as promised?
02:11Oh, she mistaked me for Rio. But Rio is such a good boy. He's just busy with work every day.
02:17Could there possibly be such a romantic jet?
02:29Oh no, dear. There's no need for such a formal gesture.
02:32Thank you, Kelly. If it weren't for you bringing me back, I'm going to have to sleep on the street.
02:36No, Chloe. When I went there yesterday, Rio was standing beside you. That total gentleman. He'd never let you sleep
02:41on the street.
02:42Rio?
02:42Rio?
02:52Honey, I guess I've underestimated some truly amazing folks out there.
02:57Wow, you're already in bed? This is absolutely explosive.
03:01How is that possible? I just accidentally kissed him.
03:05My dear, he is truly a gift from heaven. You're no less special.
03:09Staying with him also fixes Grandpa Sean's condition you only inherit if you have a child.
03:14This is the only way to keep your inheritance from your illegitimate half-brother.
03:17Perhaps, Kelly, I can ask him for help to successfully have a child.
03:21You want to marry Rio?
03:22No, I just wanted to borrow a child from him.
03:25Once we have a kid, he's useless and I inherit the company easily.
03:29Win-win, right?
03:32Well, this...
03:33Don't say that, Kelly. I'm gorgeous. I'll definitely pull this off.
03:37Wish me luck.
03:38Where are you off to?
03:38I'm going to get ready and head to meet my kid's future dad, obviously.
03:59It's you? You came to...
04:00It's me, Dr. Rio. Thanks for the bar help.
04:04Can I buy you dinner or a drink?
04:06Is she blind? I'm Rio's twin.
04:09Kane's here. Rio doesn't know her.
04:12She's a bother. I'll take care of it.
04:14Dr. Rio, you in? I'll book a table now.
04:18Okay. Thanks for the meal, ma'am.
04:21Call me Chloe, Dr. Rio.
04:28Dr. Rio, you're on crutches today.
04:31Injured?
04:34Injured?
05:05What's up? Why'd you stop?
05:07Cute girl, I still don't know your name.
05:08In the moment.
05:10Injured?
05:14Injured?
05:14Injured?
05:33Living so soon, baby?
05:34Not even a breakfast goodbye?
05:36Mr. Rio, our arrangement ended last night.
05:39Thanks for the cooperation.
05:40Not even a goodbye?
05:41Too bad. I'm Leo.
05:42His brother.
05:44You mean, I slept with the wrong person?
05:47Uh-huh, that's right.
05:52A beautiful mistake. Keep it to yourself.
06:02Wrong bed. Depends on whether I want it to be a mistake.
06:12If I'm not mistaken, you're Chloe, the youngest heiress of the Vautny family.
06:18How did you know who I am? I never told you that.
06:21There's a Vautny exclusive black card in your wallet, and the only unmarried woman of your age in the family
06:27is Chloe.
06:28Hmph. You're sharper than I expected.
06:32But you'd better keep your mouth shut.
06:35Otherwise, I won't hesitate to use the full weight of the Vautny family against you.
06:41Go up against me? You think I'd be afraid?
06:45Hmph.
06:53Wait.
06:57What are you doing?
06:58Even if you're the head of the Waller family, you have no right to be the food.
07:01Shut up. Tell me.
07:03How did you get that mark on your body?
07:07Chloe, tell me.
07:08Is that mark on you your birthmark?
07:11Leo, you have no right to interfere in my affairs.
07:16Grandpa?
07:25Grandpa, how did you find this place?
07:27Chloe, this is irresponsible.
07:29Is this how I raised you?
07:30We were just talking.
07:34Can you answer my question now?
07:36Is that mark on you a birthmark?
07:42Yes.
07:46It's really you.
07:47I finally found you.
07:49I don't know what you're talking about, Leo.
07:51You're hurting me.
07:52I'm sorry.
07:53I just got too excited, Chloe.
07:55Chloe, I won't let you leave me again.
07:57This time, I'll protect you.
07:59Mr. Sean, as you can see,
08:01Chloe and I love each other.
08:03I hope you won't stand in our way.
08:05Grandpa, don't listen to him.
08:06That's not true.
08:11Grandpa, there's nothing between Leo Wallen and me.
08:14Quiet, Chloe.
08:15Unless you want me to hand the company to Locke.
08:17Grandpa, no.
08:18Locke is just my father's Illidip son.
08:19He has no right.
08:20Or you can keep your engagement to George.
08:22Have a child, and I'll raise him.
08:23I refuse.
08:24I want nothing to do with George.
08:25He's not to be the father of my child.
08:27Fine, then.
08:28I'll call Locke back.
08:30Wait.
08:33Mr. Sean, Chloe and I...
08:34Enough, grandfather.
08:35I need to speak to Leo Lone.
08:37Please leave us.
08:39Chloe, you've always been my pride.
08:41Don't make me regret this.
08:46Mr. Leo, I think I might need your help again.
08:48Chloe, you're after my body again.
08:50No, not at all.
08:51I just want to discuss a business deal with you.
08:53Oh, really?
08:54Do tell.
08:55I want you to enter into a marriage contract with me.
08:57The contract is for a limited time.
08:59Once I have a child, we'll get a divorce immediately.
09:01She completely forgot about me.
09:04I think you're right, Miss Chloe.
09:05But what do I get out of this marriage besides providing sperm?
09:09What do you mean?
09:10Chloe, I'm a businessman.
09:11If your offer isn't generous enough, I'll have to reconsider whether to marry you.
09:15Name your terms.
09:16I'll do my best.
09:18Simple.
09:19You started this engagement, so I should decide when it ends.
09:22That seems fair.
09:23I have no reason to disagree.
09:25You can't escape me, Chloe.
09:26I'll never end it.
09:28Good.
09:28Then let's set a wedding date.
09:31What's the catch?
09:35Just be a good girl.
09:49Chloe, you're my dearest.
09:51I hope you and Leo will love, respect, and support each other through thick and thin and grow old together.
09:56I will, Grandpa.
09:58Trust me, Grandpa.
09:59I'll protect her like you did.
10:00Now, groom, kiss the bride.
10:02Kiss her!
10:08Chloe, you should be my bride!
10:11You left me for Leo Wallace?
10:13Just because he's richer?
10:15I can't let this wedding happen.
10:16If my father finds out I blew things with Chloe over Sophie, he'll kill me.
10:19I need to do something.
10:21Leo!
10:22You're brides!
10:23Yours already mine!
10:24You're just picking up what I threw away!
10:42Chloe's my wife.
10:43Show some respect, or it won't be just a punch.
10:53Apologies for the disruption.
10:55Let's continue the wedding.
10:56His look says he doesn't care, huh?
10:58We're just in a contract marriage.
11:00No need to explain to him.
11:03Seems Chloe's not affected.
11:04Good.
11:06The silly girl doesn't know I was her first.
11:16Why don't you come in?
11:17Chloe, we're already married.
11:19My home is your home.
11:20You don't need to feel constrained there.
11:22I fully understand that.
11:24As of today, I am the wife of Leo Wallace.
11:26Please also remember that you are now the husband of Chloe Vantney.
11:29Our marriage involves two families.
11:31Neither of us should do anything that could bring shame to either party.
11:34That's only natural.
11:35My wife is so beautiful, and I'm determined to remain faithful to my marriage.
11:39Actually, that man who caused a steen earlier, he's my ex.
11:43Chloe, I don't care.
11:44So there's no need for an explanation.
11:47I've been searching for you all these years.
11:49As long as you're my wife, nothing else matters.
11:53Chloe.
11:54Fine.
11:55If you don't care, then I won't say anything more.
12:02Sorry, Chloe.
12:03Chloe, I was meant to show you around our home, but there's a critical business matter that requires my attention.
12:08I have to leave.
12:09I understand.
12:10Well, good luck with your work.
12:14Chloe, you are the finest heir of the Vanty family.
12:17Marriage is nothing but a means to secure grandfather's position.
12:20When Leo returns, I'll raise the topic of having a child immediately.
12:24The moment the child is born, we can file for divorce.
12:27This is the beginning of my ideal life.
12:29So his business trip is no inconvenience at all.
12:31I can use this time to expand our business footprint and prove my capabilities to grandfather.
12:40Hey, George.
12:42Miss Chloe, I heard you're married.
12:44Congratulations.
12:46Thank you.
12:46While I appreciate the congratulations, we still need to discuss the business at hand.
12:50The price you've offered doesn't meet our expectations.
12:53What an unromantic girl.
12:55Please review the contract.
12:56I'll be right back.
12:58She's pretty, but Leo is mine.
13:00With this little gift and some photos, he won't be able to ignore it.
13:04And when he's angry, I'll be right there.
13:07Wait, Chloe.
13:15I never thought you'd be so despicable, trying to hurt my wife.
13:19Leo, it's all because I love you so much.
13:21I don't want this woman to take you away.
13:23You should be mine.
13:25You, you're gay?
13:26Chloe, what are you talking about?
13:29My feelings, Leo has always known.
13:32And you...
13:33Leo, who you like, man or woman, has nothing to do with me.
13:36We are in a contractual marriage.
13:37I won't be Zither, nor will Turchin you.
13:40You're just a quite tract that Leo used to fool his family and cover up his tracks.
13:43Wanna say, deceive yourself?
13:44I married him only to fulfill my own moody.
13:47Before the contract ends, I hope you can confill your contractual options and help me have a child.
13:57First and there is an our bestie with the obscene in the score.
13:59Please, sir, sir, you're wearing diverse, God.
14:01Toy, the Andy, when I'm at your scene, it's an obonny fabric of the game.
14:04We deny to be thought.
14:04Say one chili diesel, and when you see it, it's a place with me for the one to eat.
14:07Enough.
14:12Chloe, don't be stubborn.
14:13Leo doesn't have you in his heart, who you are hurting yourself for.
14:15If Yao, I can come back to you right now, and we can get engaged.
14:18Come back to me?
14:20George, you're not worth it.
14:22Even a contract marriage at is cleaner than the no-renzers by Up and Nguyen.
14:28Do you want to wen'ji?
14:46George, please.
14:48Bye.
14:52Bye.
14:53Bye.
14:54Bye.
14:54Bye.
15:25Am I just a baby-making tool?
15:27Leo, you're out of line. Who you love is your business. I only need you to uphold the contract.
15:32Do you really not remember anything from when we were kids?
15:35Leo, the past doesn't matter. Just stick to our agreement.
15:46Chloe? Hello? You there? What's going on?
15:55Are you okay? What's going on?
15:57Is that all? Am I just a baby-making tool to you?
15:59Chloe? Answer me. Is everything okay?
16:02Are you okay?
16:31Last night was an accident.
16:34Coincidence? Chloe, there are no coincidences between us.
16:41What are you doing? It's rude to Snoop.
16:43He's so eager to see you. I'm coming with you.
16:45Stop being ridiculous. It's over between George and me. There's nothing to discuss.
16:48Really? Then why do you keep letting him bother you instead of cutting him off?
17:02Leo? You? Where's Chloe?
17:06Chloe?
17:10Leo? Is that you? Where's Chloe?
17:15Do you have something important to tell her?
17:17This is between Chloe and me.
17:19Leo, your constant badgering and presumptously taking her spot at this appointment will only make Chloe resent you more and
17:24more.
17:24You think you're looking out for Chloe, but you just want to control her.
17:28You have no say in my relationship with her.
17:30Really? You dare say you're truly in love? You're just strangers tied by a contract.
17:36Chloe doesn't love you. She married you for inheritance and the child.
17:39You won't drop this. You're just using Chloe to rejoin the Valtese.
17:44George, know your place. You cheated on her and drove her away. Keep this up and you'll only embarrass yourself.
17:50I'll change, but my feelings for her are real. You've got endless secrets.
17:55You don't dare show how you really feel. If you loved her, you'd never trap her in this contract.
17:59Consider this your final warning. Stay away from Chloe. Never set foot near her again.
18:05Or I'll personally scrap the overseas financing project next week.
18:10Want to try me?
18:15Leo, the more you protect her, the more I'll tear you two apart.
18:18You don't trust each other as it is. I'll fan the flames and make you split for good.
18:26Chloe, you're finally back.
18:27Why are you here again? I thought I made myself clear. Don't contact me again.
18:31But I never got to explain. You know how Leo was with me this afternoon, Chloe?
18:34He pretended to be you. Secretly dated me, insulted me the whole time, and threatened me with my family's business.
18:39He doesn't trust you at all. He just wants to control everything about you.
18:41Your friends, your life, your feelings.
18:43Save your sweet talk, George. I never expected feelings from this deal.
18:56George, let me go. Don't push it!
18:58I won't let go, Chloe. I messed up, but I never got over you.
19:02I can make everything right, right now. Let's start over.
19:05You'll be happier than in that cold contract.
19:07George, don't push it.
19:08This is your final warning. Cross me again, and I'll crush you.
19:16So what if you married Leo?
19:18He doesn't even like you. You're just a chain tying him down.
19:21You two only use each other, nothing more.
19:25Chloe, you'll regret this sooner or later.
19:32What are you standing here for?
19:36I haven't settled with you for this afternoon yet.
19:40Watching my phone and crashing my date.
19:43Rio, you've gone too far.
19:44Our deal forbids meddling in my personal life.
19:46Crossing boundaries?
19:47So all my care's just overstepping to you?
19:51So your ambiguous stuff with your ex counts as fine personal business?
19:55Are we pulling together?
19:57Rio, don't jump to conclusions yet.
19:59Our marriage, a contract with clear rules.
20:01It's you who ignore those rumors and never explain.
20:04Aren't you at fault too?
20:06Very good indeed.
20:17Your vagueness sparked all this confusion.
20:20Why play the victim?
20:21Who suffers most from this arrangement?
20:28Rio, I need to have a serious talk with you.
20:31Does this tie back to tonight at the manor gate when you clung to George in a long embrace?
20:36Or is this still about perfect deal you talked about?
20:40I slapped him and pushed him off for good.
20:42It was final.
20:43You just won't believe me.
20:44Arguing, explaining, cold wars, none of it matters anymore.
20:50You have to hold up your end so I can calm grandpa down and secure my inheritance through this child.
20:55Once we have the child, the contract terminates immediately.
20:58We'll split peacefully, owing each other nothing.
21:01You're dying to finalize this deal and dump me, but I won't let that happen.
21:14Madam, after leaving the master bedroom last night, the youngster never came back.
21:18He hastily booked a business trip in the wee hours.
21:21He left the manor by private jet at six this morning.
21:23Okay, a business trip's for the best.
21:28I heard the new rooftop bar has an amazing view.
21:31I'll take you there tonight to unwind.
21:32That's just what I want.
21:34I also need to get out and breathe some fresh air.
21:36I'll pick you up at the manor at 8 p.m.
21:37I've long told you not to waste your thoughts on Rio.
21:40He's fickle and suspicious.
21:42Once I secure the inheritance, all my troubles will vanish into air air.
21:55Come on, baby, don't be such a bore, all alone at the bar like this.
22:00Don't play hard to get.
22:01You come to a bar to have fun, right?
22:04Chat with us, have a few drinks.
22:06We'll make it worth your while.
22:10Serves her right.
22:11It's her own doing.
22:13What goes around comes around.
22:15Why?
22:16Why does Chloe get to be perfect her whole life?
22:19People always clean up her messes for her.
22:21I'm out here getting harassed, humiliated in public, and she just sits up there, judging me.
22:25Hey, we're talking to you.
22:27Don't be rude.
22:28Get off me!
22:32Oh, a friend?
22:33Even better.
22:34The more the merrier, right?
22:36Wow, you're way from this one.
22:37Come on, have a drink with us.
22:39We'll treat you right.
22:40Get away from my table.
22:42Now.
22:42I know I messed up.
22:43I never should have gotten between you and...
22:46George, I know I was wrong.
22:47Chloe, I do.
22:48Can you just forgive me this once?
22:50Please, just help me.
22:51Don't let them follow me.
22:52Your problems are none of my business.
22:54Let go.
22:55Sophie, don't push your luck.
22:56You got yourself into this mess.
22:57Don't drag other people into it.
23:01Chloe, you stuck-up bitch!
23:04Oh my god, blood!
23:07Chloe, you're hurt!
23:12How did it end up like this?
23:13I just wanted to step out for a stroll.
23:15How did I come to this?
23:16I can't, absolutely can't let anything happen to Chloe.
23:19No way.
23:20Doc, my friend, is she okay?
23:22Miss, don't fret.
23:23Blood everywhere.
23:23She okay?
23:24Lasting harm?
23:25Tell me quick.
23:25Sharp neck cut, bled a lot, missed big vessels and trachea.
23:28Clean, stitched, bleed stopped, transfused.
23:29Safe.
23:30Still unconscious?
23:31Why, something else going on?
23:32Severe hemorrhage, exhaustion, coma.
23:34Worn out.
23:34Needs complete rest.
23:36Stay calm.
23:36Rupture could kill.
23:37We'll move her to a VIP suite for observation.
23:42She...
23:42Okay?
23:43How dare you!
23:44What, Leon, look at your wife!
23:46Sophie slashed her throat with a glass.
23:48Almost killed her!
23:50Silly contract, dull tests, cold war, what for?
23:53My fault.
23:54I was wrong.
23:55No more cold war.
23:57No more sulking.
23:58And no more doubting you.
23:59Home alone.
24:00No, shouldn't have gone.
24:01Shouldn't have...
24:03I'll use everything Wallen's group has.
24:06All of Wallen's group.
24:07No mercy, including Sophie.
24:10You.
24:12What brings you here?
24:17Yes, I'm here.
24:19Honey, you're awake.
24:21Let me get the doctor to check on you.
24:24Hurt?
24:26It's nothing.
24:28It's nothing.
24:28Don't fuss.
24:32So all hurt and danger are nothing to you?
24:37Exactly.
24:38We're just contract.
24:40Don't feel guilty about my accident.
24:43Not necessary.
24:44Contract again.
24:45Chloe, really want it all as just a deal?
24:47Cafe, trip, George, all from overstepping.
24:51Let's just keep our place.
24:53Don't fuss for me.
24:54Or your lover might think we're involved.
24:56So you believe I'm gay?
24:59You're unwell.
25:00So I won't argue.
25:01Let's have a good talk after you leave the hospital.
25:07Are you leaving again?
25:08Chloe just regained consciousness and is very weak.
25:11Can't you stay and take care of her?
25:12She doesn't need me.
25:13My presence would only disturb her rest.
25:15You obviously care about her, so why won't you just explain properly?
25:19Explain?
25:19She never trusts, remembers?
25:21My words are a joke to her deals.
25:24I won't let Sophie's case slide.
25:26Anyone who touches my people will pay.
25:39Gone.
25:40What are you looking at?
25:41Nothing.
25:43Chloe, don't be tough.
25:44Leo, panic today.
25:46Couldn't hold his cane.
25:47He's sincere.
25:47Not contract.
25:48Not others.
25:49Just misunderstandings.
25:50No one backs down.
25:51When better, talk openly with him.
25:53What?
25:54Talk?
25:55He panics and takes my side.
25:57But that's not just for me.
25:58What?
25:59Don't you see?
26:00He keeps staring.
26:01Always asking if I remember childhood.
26:03Eyes so odd.
26:04Full of obsession and nostalgia.
26:06Even if that George thing a misunderstand?
26:09He must have another person in his heart.
26:11So no need to explain or mind.
26:13Whether he sees me as comfort or a substitute fine.
26:16Just give me a child as agreed.
26:17I get the inheritance and we part ways.
26:19Sounds good.
26:20But what if that's not true?
26:23If he's loved only you all along, but for reasons he can't say,
26:26I won't gamble.
26:27I dare not.
26:28Can't lose inheritance.
26:30Don't want to be someone's shadow unknowingly.
26:34Well, Sophie, she seemed tonight.
26:36Leo won't let her off.
26:37You not scared?
26:38Serves her right.
26:39Sir, I repent.
26:41I truly repent.
26:43I truly repent.
26:45I was stupid.
26:46I was possessed by a moment of madness to hurt Chloe.
26:49Please forgive me this time.
26:51Foolish?
26:52Possessed?
26:52The brilliance of others is not an excuse for you to act recklessly and harm others.
26:56I know I was wrong, Mr. Leo.
26:58I won't dare.
26:59Never again.
26:59I'll never appear in front of you again.
27:01The moment you cut her, you are already going to pay the price.
27:03Every drop of blood she shed will be repaid a thousandfold by you.
27:12I'm not done.
27:14Why is it always me?
27:15Why do I have to be the one left with nothing?
27:18Still got fight in you, huh?
27:19Should have known better than to cross Mr. Wallace.
27:23You really were stupid.
27:25Could have lived a nice, quiet life.
27:27Now, you're finished in this city.
27:29I brought this on myself, but I didn't.
27:31Why did Chloe have everything from the start?
27:33Family, status, connections, and Leo's favor.
27:36Everything I desired, she had it so easily.
27:38She acts so high and mighty just because of her wife!
27:40Miss Fanny has a good heart and won't bother with you.
27:42This is all your own fault.
27:44You have no one to blame but yourself.
27:46What right do you have to do this to me?
27:47Leo and Chloe are the biggest hypocrites.
27:50One acts affectionate, the other acts cold, but I'm the one who gets humiliated and go even and blacklisted.
27:55Crazy bitch, how dare you insult Mr. and Mrs. Leo.
27:57You deserve this fate.
27:58Still screaming like a madwoman.
28:00You're hopeless.
28:03Get lost.
28:04If you ever show up in front of Mr. and Mrs. again, let's wait in Miohti.
28:08The next lesson won't be this easy.
28:16You took everything from me.
28:19I'll pay you back.
28:32Who are you?
28:33What do you want?
28:34Who I am doesn't matter.
28:35What matters is we share the same enemy, Chloe.
28:38Leo ruined your life.
28:40Chloe took everything you wanted.
28:41You can't beat them alone.
28:43Work for me, and I'll give you back your dignity and status.
28:46This money is enough for you to get back into high society.
28:49The file is your trump card against Chloe.
28:57Good.
28:58Come with me if you have the guts for revenge.
29:18What's in the bag?
29:20Enough to destroy Chloe.
29:25Work for me, and you'll get your dignity back.
29:36How is this possible?
29:38Who are you?
29:38You don't need to know.
29:54Locke.
29:55Why dig into my background?
29:58Why?
29:59Pale.
30:00Is something wrong?
30:01Locke is back.
30:02He's been looking into my personal files.
30:05Locke, your half-brother, who's been overseas all these years, what's he planning?
30:10He must be after the company.
30:11Did you tell your grandpa or ask Leo for help?
30:14No.
30:14This is a Vante family matter.
30:16I'll handle it.
30:17I can take care of this on my own.
30:19But you're still hurt.
30:20You can't handle everything alone.
30:22If I don't go back, he'll only get bolder.
30:28I have to get back to the company and study the situation.
30:37What are you doing?
30:38The doctor ordered bed rest.
30:39I have to get back to the company.
30:41Your wound hasn't healed yet.
30:42It's too dangerous.
30:49I'm fine.
30:50Staying here won't stop him.
30:52If he wants a fight, I'll give him one.
30:58Fine.
30:58I'll go with you.
31:00Be careful.
31:10Miss Chloe, you're still recovering.
31:13Why head back to the office so soon?
31:15Everything at the group is running just fine and all tasks are covered.
31:19You really ought to rest up for a few more days.
31:22The quieter things seem, the more trouble is brewing beneath the surface.
31:25Locke didn't fly back out of nowhere and dig into my background as a token play.
31:29If I'm not here to hold the line at the company, he'll only get more aggressive and keep overstepping.
31:37Is Grandpa in his office?
31:38Chairman Sean arrived at the office first thing this morning.
31:40He's talking to the old butler right now.
31:42He specifically told us not to let anyone disturb him for the time being.
31:45Grandpa never mixes business with personal matters.
31:48He barely has private chats with the butler during working hours.
31:51It's awfully coincidental that they're having a private talk right when Locke's back and digging into my origins.
31:56I've kept that matter buried inside me for years.
31:59It was all to protect Chloe and safeguard the Vanton family's reputation.
32:02I never expected Locke would zero in on that old case the moment he came back and dig up those
32:06dusty old files.
32:08Sir, young master Locke is a deed is and his return this time is clearly premeditated.
32:11If he exposes the scandal involving the young lady's mother
32:15and deal a heavy blow to Vander Group's public image and stock price.
32:18It will ruin her reputation, jeopardize her right of inheritance.
32:22What about my mother?
32:23What exactly happened?
32:24Why did Grandpa hide the truth?
32:26Is Locke only looking into my identity to dig up things about my mother and take me down?
32:31My biggest fear is that Chloe won't be able to take it once she finds out.
32:34She's a tough girl, only vulnerable when it comes to her loved ones.
32:38Her mother...
32:39Miss Chloe!
32:41Chloe!
32:45Chloe!
32:53Miss.
32:54Is my grandpa busy?
32:56The chairman finished recounting some old stories about the family.
32:59You haven't fully recovered yet.
33:01Wouldn't it be better to recuperate in the hospital?
33:04What are you doing coming here?
33:05I can't stop worrying about the internal infighting in the company.
33:09Once Loken returns from abroad, if I pretend nothing's wrong and stay out of it,
33:13he'll only stir up trouble and destroy our family business.
33:16I'm in charge of the group, so you don't need to worry about it.
33:20Grandpa's holding everything together, able to suppress all the open conflicts.
33:24But he can't settle the old scores buried long ago, can he?
33:29Come in.
33:38How long have you been standing outside the door just now?
33:41It was enough for me to hear my mother's secret clearly.
33:44The lethal weapon Locke used to break me.
33:47Grandpa, please tell me what that secret is.
33:50Chloe!
33:50You can't dig into this.
33:51Don't ask any more questions.
33:53Why?
33:55No one has dared to speak of my mother's past ever since I was born.
33:59Everyone tries to avoid the subject on purpose.
34:01I always thought it was some ordinary old story from the past,
34:04but now Loken has lurked for years just to dig up these secrets and launched his offensive after
34:08turning home.
34:09Even my right of inheritance and even the Fantoni Empire have been affected.
34:12Is this just an ordinary story from the past?
34:14Grandpa only has your best interests at heart.
34:16The past events are tangled and carry grave consequences.
34:20If they ever come to light, it will destroy you completely.
34:23And the same goes for the Fontaine family.
34:25You're strong-willed, yet far too sentimental.
34:27Learning the truth would be nothing short of sealing your own doom.
34:30So you chose to hide the truth from me?
34:32Let me struggle through life completely in the dark,
34:34all while watching me get manipulated and held at the mercy of others?
34:38I'll deal with Locke and settle all old squats.
34:40I'll take care of everything else.
34:41All you need to do is stay calm, hold your position, and wait to inherit the group.
34:46What kind of truth could make Grandpa hide it from me for half a century
34:48and make Locke so certain that it's enough to replace me entirely?
34:54Grandpa, I'm not afraid of taking risks.
34:56What I fear is being kept in the dark and manipulated by others.
34:59Once Locke gets hold of the evidence, he'll never back down.
35:02You can hide the truth from me for a while, but never from him forever.
35:05I'd rather know the whole story now to prepare for whatever might happen.
35:08No need! There's no room for negotiation on this matter.
35:12You've just been discharged from the hospital and you're still very weak.
35:15Go home. I'll handle the company affairs and everything involving Locke.
35:19I understand.
35:42Grandpa hid it.
35:43Locke pressed.
35:44What's my mother hiding?
35:46Could my identity have been a lie from the start?
35:51Locke, what is it you want?
36:02Who... who else knows?
36:04About that year?
36:06Is it Locke?
36:07Or someone else?
36:09If it was Locke, he'd throw the file in my face.
36:12No need to drag me out here.
36:14So if not him, who's in the dark?
36:16Someone who knows me, knows my past is the one thing I can't let go.
36:21Ever you are a trap.
36:22Tonight, I'm ripping that mask off.
36:24I have to know everything.
36:31Hello?
36:32Partner Chloe, rumors saying you're not theirs.
36:35You're sniffing, shorting.
36:37Stock's under attack.
36:38Someone's behind it.
36:40I know.
36:41Locke's work.
36:41He's using public opinion to push me out.
36:43You?
36:44It's blowing up.
36:45You can't hold.
36:46You're seeing shaking.
36:47Leo?
36:47Brutal wired.
36:48One call, it's done.
36:49Vantelli mess.
36:50Chloe, stop.
36:52Leo's not that bad.
36:53He cares.
36:54He really does.
36:54Personal.
36:55Enough, Kelly.
36:56My mind's made up.
36:57Tonight, hillside.
36:58Hold the line online till I'm back.
36:59Ricky, it's a trap.
37:00You're not healed.
37:01No choice.
37:02Sit and die or fight.
37:04Lock in, Sophie, every trap you'd have failed.
37:06Now, I want to see.
37:09What did you hide in my mother's past?
37:12What did you do to me?
37:17Sir, we've confirmed it.
37:18Who snuck into the Fantine group to access old family files
37:21and has been digging into Miss Chloe's background to stir up trouble?
37:25Is the illegitimate son laying low overseas for years, Locke?
37:29Additionally, after being blacklisted citywide and left with nowhere to turn,
37:34have we found out why Locken returned?
37:36Based on the clues we've uncovered so far,
37:38everything he's done revolves around exposing Miss Chloe's past.
37:42His goal is to publicize the secrets and undermine Miss Chloe's claim to the inheritance
37:46to take her place as the heir of Fantine.
37:48We still don't know what trump code or exact plans he has.
37:51There's another crucial lead.
37:52Sophie holds a confidential file no one knows about.
37:54It's her trump code with Lock.
37:55Our team suspect it's almost certainly about Miss Chloe's mother.
37:57Keep Chloe safe.
37:59Suppress all online rumors and contain the public narrative.
38:02Until we uncover the full truth,
38:03deploy all your undercover assets to protect her.
38:06No one harms Chloe or jeopardizes her position.
38:09Yes, sir.
38:20Sir, emergency update.
38:23An anonymous person has arranged a secret meeting with Miss Chloe
38:26at the mid-mountains of Gashendem at 10pm tonight at 10pm tonight,
38:30claiming to know every secret about her background.
38:33Miss Chloe has agreed to go,
38:35insisting on going alone despite all objections,
38:38planning to meet them by herself tonight.
38:40The online rumors about her background are escalating,
38:43and it's highly likely Lock and Sophie are behind them,
38:46pushing Miss Chloe to show up in person.
38:49It's a trap.
38:50Their alliance is a setup made to lure Chloe there.
38:53Sir, should we dispatch men to intercept Miss Chloe immediately
38:55and seal off all exits on the mountain?
39:00Don't intercept her.
39:01Have the car ready.
39:02I'm going myself.
39:12My dear sister,
39:13how brave of you to come alone.
39:16I see.
39:17You're behind all of this.
39:18The anonymous text message and the rumors online it was all you.
39:21It's more than that, dear Chloe.
39:22Did you think we only came to stir up a little trouble?
39:24Today we're here to make you hand over
39:26what's most precious to you?
39:28My dearest sister,
39:29you've sat on the Vantney heritage for so long,
39:31living comfortably off Grandpa's favor,
39:32but you don't deserve it.
39:33I've run Vanty as Earned By for years,
39:35guarded the family business,
39:36not something you can take
39:37just because you came back from O Crisis.
39:39Because I hold the card that will destroy you.
39:41You think Grandpa can cover it all up?
39:42Once I make your mother's past
39:44and your true birthright public,
39:45you won't just lose your inheritance.
39:47Your title as the Vantnam heiress
39:49will become the laughing stone of the whole city.
39:51Chloe, you've lived your whole life
39:52shiny and untouchable.
39:53Did you ever stop to think
39:54that your biggest trump card has always been a lie?
39:56This file holds every secret
39:58about your mother,
39:59and it's your biggest weakness.
40:01What exactly happened to my mother?
40:02You want to know?
40:03Fine.
40:03Neil, apologize to me.
40:06Publicly renounce your claim
40:07to the Vantney group inheritance.
40:08Then I'll let you read it,
40:09let you see just how disgraceful
40:11your so-called honorable mother's past really was.
40:13That's right, Chloe.
40:14You've always acted so high and mighty,
40:17so proud of your status.
40:18If you bow your head now,
40:19we'll let you keep the last of your dignity.
40:21Otherwise, by tomorrow morning,
40:23the whole city will know about your scandal
40:25and your mother's sins.
40:25You'll be ruined.
40:26After all this scheming,
40:27this is all you've got?
40:28Digging up old dirt
40:29and spreading lies
40:30to get cowardly tricks?
40:33First, my inheritance was granted by Grandpa,
40:36and I've defended it with my own ability.
40:38It won't be taken away
40:39by some questionable old file
40:41and a few rumors.
40:42Third, you want me to bow?
40:44You're not worthy.
40:46You won't cry until you see the coffin.
40:49If you won't back down,
40:50I'll make this file public right now
40:52and destroy you from complete-
40:53Who dares?
40:59Mr. Leo,
41:00this is entirely Fambini's family business.
41:02It's nothing to do with you.
41:03Please don't interfere.
41:04My wife's place,
41:05my business.
41:06Mr. Leo,
41:06Chloe disrespected elders
41:08and took the inheritance.
41:09We just want fairness.
41:10Fairness.
41:10You hurt,
41:11and you talk about fairness?
41:12Leo!
41:13Powerful,
41:14but don't bully.
41:14This file holds Chloe's real identity,
41:16Fantano's biggest secret.
41:17You have no say.
41:18I'll expose it,
41:19and Chloe's rep and inheritance are gone.
41:21Think an old file can ruin her?
41:22Locke's still green.
41:23I've killed all rumors.
41:24Your file's fake or not.
41:25Go public,
41:26and you'll be sued for slander.
41:27You'll end up ruined.
41:28How'd you bury it all so fast?
41:29My city,
41:30my people safe.
41:31Arrest,
41:31seal,
41:32bring back for inquiry.
41:33No, you can't.
41:35It's mine!
41:35Must expose Chloe's true!
41:37She's not the Fantati heir!
41:39Sorry, Mr. Leo,
41:40never again!
41:40Locke made me!
41:41Forgive!
41:42Drag off.
41:43Deal later.
41:44How did you know I was here?
41:46I will never abandon you,
41:48or put you in harm's way.
41:50We're just a contract.
41:51Don't waste on me.
41:52If my identity's an issue,
41:54and I lose inheritance,
41:55you get nothing.
41:56Chloe,
41:56don't you get it by now?
41:57My protections isn't a contract,
41:59and it's not for benefit.
42:01I don't care about the inheritance,
42:02my status,
42:03or anything from Femfimini.
42:05All I want is to be with you.
42:18Do you remember?
42:21This is...
42:22Here's a pendant for you.
42:23I'll marry you someday.
42:27A promise once made
42:28shall never be broken.
42:29It's me.
42:30That year,
42:31I was hurt
42:31and shut myself away
42:32from everyone.
42:33Only you never feared
42:34my disability
42:35and stayed by my side
42:36every day.
42:37Is this the pendant
42:38I gave you when we were kids?
42:39Were you that little boy
42:40with the injured legs
42:41I looked after
42:42all those years ago?
42:43I've been searching for you
42:43for over a decade.
42:45This pendant
42:46and your one-of-kind birthmark
42:47are all I have left
42:48to remind me of you.
42:50The moment I spotted
42:51that birthmark
42:52at the bar that night,
42:53I knew it was you.
42:55You've always been
42:56the one I'm looking for,
42:57no one else.
42:58So,
42:59you agreed to this
43:01contract marriage
43:02not because of pressure
43:03from my grandfather?
43:04Yes.
43:05I never yield
43:06or compromise.
43:07Grandpa's pressure
43:08and this contract
43:09were my best shot
43:10at keeping you.
43:11You just want a baby
43:12then divorce,
43:13using me as a tool.
43:14So I endured everything,
43:16playing this fake marriage
43:17waiting for you to remember.
43:19I'm sorry.
43:20I misjudged you
43:21and was so cruel
43:22to you all along.
43:23It's not your fault.
43:25I hid everything
43:26too deep
43:27and never told you
43:28the truth sooner.
43:30I was afraid
43:31you'd think
43:31I'd plotted everything
43:32and stay away from me.
43:42Grandpa?
43:44Chloe,
43:45return to the manor fast.
43:47Lachan backed up
43:48your identity files
43:49before capture.
43:50He anomously sent them
43:51to all council elders.
43:55I'm heading back now.
44:02Lachan backed up
44:02I'm here for you.
44:04I'll stand by you
44:05through every storm.
44:13Grandpa?
44:14Chloe,
44:16return to the manor fast.
44:17Lachan backed up
44:18your identity files
44:19before capture.
44:20He anomously sent them
44:22to all council elders.
44:26I'm heading back now.
44:32Don't worry.
44:33I'm here for you.
44:35I'll stand by you
44:36through every storm.
44:44I'm with her.
44:45Champ to don't Sean.
44:46Are you going to remain silent?
44:47This, this Chloe's
44:48Mootin's meals,
44:49the Sartre's.
44:50It was Vever Honeygeat
44:50had zamored
44:51been Rengming
44:51and Bantam
44:52and Sivly's century.
44:53We'll something
44:54broful chap
44:54or insanias.
44:55You being spooled
44:56Brazil,
44:56for years she served
44:57the group,
44:58consented our
44:59summit,
44:59she's mourned
44:59Colicud.
45:00To dismiss all her
45:01efforts based on
45:01a single,
45:02unterrified low
45:03val is absurd.
45:04To dismiss all her
45:05efforts based on
45:06a single,
45:06unterrified old
45:07change of his reign.
45:08Since Master Locke
45:08has evidence
45:09and dare to speak out,
45:10it must be well
45:10absurded.
45:11Part 2 of this
45:11so-called confidential
45:12file was deliberately
45:13tampered with and
45:14forged to highlight
45:14old news and deframes
45:15Chloe's mother.
45:16All authentic files
45:17have been thoroughly
45:17verified and archived
45:19and can be not
45:19aphorized and made
45:20public in full.
45:21Whoever dares to
45:21arbitrarily remove my
45:22wife based on a
45:23single forged document
45:24in a race will be
45:24clearing war on
45:25my Wallace group.
45:32This was a
45:32misunderstanding.
45:33We were misled by
45:34a forged file and
45:35nearly made a mistake
45:36against Miss Chloe.
45:37Exactly.
45:38Fortunately,
45:39Mr. Leo uncovered
45:40the truth or we
45:41would have made a
45:42terrible mistake.
45:44Everyone has seen
45:45Miss Chloe's
45:46contributions to the
45:47group over the
45:47years.
45:48Her position as
45:49heir is well
45:50deserved.
45:50Now the factors
45:51are clear.
45:52Anyone who
45:52dared to spread
45:53rumors about
45:54the court of
45:54Fuche or
45:55engage Nabal
45:55Dogen will be
45:56an enemy of
45:56the Vantarney
45:57family.
46:03Chloe, I've
46:04lied to you for
46:04censor long,
46:05making you for
46:05the wrong.
46:06Grandpa, I don't
46:06blame you.
46:07I know you did
46:08it to protect
46:08me and Fantini.
46:09Grandpa, I'll
46:10be here on.
46:10No one has
46:11ever dared
46:11to thracing her
46:12with the
46:12Boris Thay.
46:13With you by
46:13her side, I
46:14drone you easy.
46:15Good.
46:15Since you two
46:16love each other,
46:17let this contract
46:18become a marriage
46:19of the heart.
46:20I forced you to
46:20marry and have
46:21a child because I
46:23feared you would
46:23be alone in this
46:24world with no
46:25way out.
46:25Now that Leo is
46:26here to protect
46:27you, I can
46:28finally rest easy.
46:29It's late.
46:30You two should
46:31rest.
46:31As for Locke and
46:32Sophie, I'll
46:33handle them myself.
46:34They will never
46:35rise again and
46:36they will never
46:36know peace.
46:37All right.
46:42All right.
