00:00Please, madam, make yourself at home.
00:05Thank you, thank you, Albert. You're so kind, and this place is just magnificent.
00:13Normally, I don't allow myself such a familiarity, but you're damn right, madam.
00:24In just a few days, I had adapted to a life of luxury. The driver took me to and from work and to the hospital.
00:31I enjoyed the fresh air and beautiful views which gave me inspiration.
00:36Besides Albert the butler and Lynn the cook housekeeper, no one else resided in the mansion.
00:42I enjoyed living there and hoped to stay indefinitely.
00:46I hoped that Cameron and I would get along and, who knows, even fall in love as a real husband and wife.
00:52I felt silly for fantasizing about it, but in a place like this, it was hard not to.
01:13Ma'am.
01:15Who are you?
01:22Mr. Kent, I'm...
01:24Sir, this is Miss Brenda Strong, your wife.
01:33Are you telling me that I'm married?
01:38Why didn't I know that I was married?
01:41You didn't know about the marriage arrangement?
01:44But... Mr. Tripp, he... he told me... we were talking...
01:49Look at me.
02:06Get out.
02:07Sir, your father arranged...
02:12Don't make me repeat myself.
02:15I'll be in my study.
02:23I'm really sorry, madam.
02:26I was so sad because all my romantic dreams about Cameron Kent had come to naught.
02:32Don't worry about me. I'm... I'm gonna be okay.
02:38Excuse me.
02:42As I walked out with a suitcase of my things, my stomach tightened.
02:46What has I gotten myself into?
02:49Cameron didn't even know about our marriage. What a shame!
02:53I felt a deep sense of guilt for not reading the contract and did not know how to terminate it now.
02:59I had just walked away from the door when a familiar voice answered me.
03:04Where do you think you're going?
03:06Are you trying to breach our contract?
03:10Albert told me what happened.
03:12That's no reason for you to give up. We have a legal contract.
03:16No, no, I know.
03:18It's just... I'm so sorry. I didn't mean to breach anything willingly. I just...
03:24Cameron hates me.
03:25Hatred? Is that the reason?
03:29Fine. So give us back the compensation and leave.
03:34What... what kind of compensation are you talking about?
03:40According to the terms of our agreement,
03:42breaching the contract within the first three years obliges you to pay double the amount of money you received.
03:49It was written in the agreement in tiny letters.
03:57I don't have that amount of money. What am I supposed to do?
04:01Put in the effort and fight.
04:06You're a smart woman, Brenda.
04:08So you must know that dealing with a beauty like you is the hardest thing for a man.
04:20The lawyer walked away. I had to understand this by now.
04:24There was no way out.
04:26I couldn't afford to breach the contract, but I also couldn't ignore my grandmother's illness.
04:32So, even if Cameron hated me, I had to do everything in my power to stay.
04:39The following day, I made a plan.
04:42I would change my attitude and try to win Cameron over.
04:46I was already up to my neck in the situation, and the best thing I could do was make the most of it.
04:52That morning, Cameron came downstairs and seeing me, he became more serious.
04:57Alfred, do you know where is my...
05:02Hi, good morning. I made you some breakfast, so please, enjoy.
05:09Why is she still here?
05:11Your wife? No. Where else can I go if I'm not here?
05:16Maybe you don't know it, but we even have a real marriage certificate.
05:21Do you think I would care about that?
05:24But you cannot deny it. You are my husband. I am your wife. Well, legally.
05:32It's true, sir. As far as I know, your father keeps your marriage certificate.
05:40There was anger in Cameron's eyes, but I didn't react.
05:44I had to take care of my grandmother and find a way to improve my relationship with Cameron.
05:49But how? Even though he hated me, I couldn't give up.
06:15You came without warning. What brings you here today?
06:24I need my marriage certificate. Right now.
06:27Right now? And what will you do with it so urgently, son?
06:32I'm gonna get a divorce.
06:36Very well. So, have you seen your wife yet?
06:41This is irrelevant to the case, dad.
06:43I thought you'd like her.
06:45You were wrong.
06:47Okay, no problem. Jeffrey, bring the certificate, please.
06:52Get a divorce that's your right.
06:55You know you're not my only son, Cameron, right?
06:58And if you don't get married this year...
07:00I know that.
07:01And you know what I am.
07:03Right.
07:06You know, maybe I shouldn't get a divorce right away.
07:13Right away? Surely not.
07:16Nothing in this life should be done in a hurry.
07:21Thank you for the advice I didn't ask for.
07:28And stay away of my business in the future, alright?
07:44I think one day Cameron will understand your good intentions, sir.
07:51You know what? I think it's time for me to meet my daughter-in-law.
07:55Could you arrange this, please?
07:57Certainly, sir.
08:07From the moment she moved here, Brenda felt a strange connection to this house.
08:12She could not understand why she felt it, but it was strong.
08:16Something was compelling her to fight on.
08:19And then, she picked up that call.
08:31Hi, who are you looking for, little one?
08:34Daddy, is daddy home?
08:38Is Brenda the mother of this child?
08:41Is Cameron the stranger who got her pregnant?
08:44Was it all a plan by Cameron's father to get him married?
