00:00Everyone wondered how Emma, a poor student, had landed a rich businessman like Robert Erickson.
00:07Little did they know, the billionaire was stalking her to the point of obsession,
00:12and things were about to take a dangerous turn.
00:19As she woke up, her surroundings revealed a dimly lit, opulent room.
00:24Panic set in when she discovered her nudity.
00:30And searched the room frantically for her clothing.
00:33At her feet, she noticed a pair of men's briefs,
00:36and her heart sank when she spotted red stains on the sheets.
00:40It was the final, damning evidence of a night she couldn't fully recall.
00:48This was not a dream. This had happened.
00:51She lost her virginity.
00:54You're awake.
00:55Mr. Erickson.
00:57After everything we did last night, you still think we aren't on a first-name basis.
01:10You should take a shower.
01:12The water pressure is... excellent.
01:16No thanks. I need to leave.
01:23Emma! Don't you want to talk about what happened last night?
01:27Emma wrestled with the fractured fragments of her memory,
01:30attempting to reconstruct the blurry aftermath of her reckless drinking.
01:35In the moment of haste, she slid beneath the bed,
01:38trying to remember what had happened.
01:41The blurry aftermath of her reckless drinking.
01:44In the moment of haste, she slid beneath the cool sheets.
01:48Her hands clawed at the scattered remnants of her attire strewn across.
01:53Each article of clothing a potential witness to the night's debauchery.
02:07Mr. Erickson?
02:09Can we forget that anything happened between us last night?
02:12If you're worried about any STDs, I can assure you I'm still a virgin.
02:16Was. Was a virgin.
02:20The only person that's lost anything here is me.
02:28However, I want to ask if you want anything from me.
02:35You don't strike me as the kind of person that wants money for a first time.
02:40Yeah, I don't want your money. I just want you to keep this a secret.
02:45I did not know it was your first time in bed with someone.
02:50As compensation, I will allow you one demand.
02:55You can ask anything of me.
03:00Except, make you fall in love with me.
03:05Mr. Erickson, I think you misunderstood.
03:08I don't go out to give myself away so I won't trade myself for anything.
03:12In fact, I plan now to officially quit working.
03:15Because from here on, I'm going to be focusing on my graduation thesis.
03:19We won't be seeing each other again.
03:22So I'm going to wish you a good life. Goodbye.
03:29Robert's mouth twitched with surprise and amusement.
03:33Emma Green's unexpected departure and assertive demeanor had caught his attention.
03:38Emma had made a memorable impression as the first woman to ever walk out on him.
03:44He picked up the scarf she had left behind by mistake and began to inhale its scent.
03:51Emma Green's enigmatic words had presented him with an intriguing challenge.
03:58And he eagerly contemplated what the future might hold.
04:03In a northern city, Robert Erickson, CEO of the Erickson Emblem Corporation, represented power, wealth, and danger.
04:25Rumor had it that he had killed his older brother and left his younger brother traumatized to become the sole inheritor of the family business.
04:35If there was a person in this world that Emma didn't even dare to think about, it was him.
04:41Yet, this was the person whom she had foolishly spent the night with.
04:46The person looked like a seductive god.
04:49Adding to the complexity of the situation, the Erickson Emblem Corporation wasn't just an ordinary company.
04:56It stood as the primary rival to the Mayer Group of Industries that was owned by Emma's father.
05:03Their rivalry extended beyond mere financial competition, spilling over into a power struggle for control over the city.
05:12Both groups were unscrupulous in their methods, causing collateral damage on both sides.
05:18Yes, indeed. She had slept with her father's most bitter adversary.
05:24She quickens her pace, eager to distance herself from Robert's home.
05:29If anyone from the Mayer family ever discovered this, the shame would be unbearable.
05:35Emma! Emma, stop! Emma, listen to me, please!
05:41Emma stood, facing the devastating betrayal that had rocked her world.
05:46If she hadn't walked in on them cheating on her yesterday, her drunken night of debauchery could have been avoided.
05:57Emma, are you alright? What are you doing walking around in this neighborhood?
06:02Like either of you care. Please, Kristen, save me from the nice girl next door talk.
06:08I'm sorry. Okay? It's my fault. I'm the one that seduced Ted. If you want to blame anyone, blame me.
06:23No. She's wrong. I'm sorry, Emma.
06:28Emma looked at them both, but didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
06:33Emma thought that this only happened in vulgar novels.
06:37One of them was her boyfriend. The other was her best friend and roommate.
06:42Ted, you don't have to worry about me. Kristen, he's all yours.
06:46And as far as you and I go, this friendship is done. Goodbye.
06:51Emma! Emma! Emma, don't!
06:57A black Cadillac turns into the road, heading towards Emma.
07:06Move, move, move!
07:09Emma, don't! Emma! Move!
07:14It turned out to be Robert. However, by that point, it was already too late.
07:19Once again, she had acted impulsively.
07:22Once again, she had acted impulsively, only to regret it afterward.
07:28Without hesitation, she followed through with her rash decision, leaving Ted and Kristen standing there.
07:36Are you stalking me now? Take me to Elm Road or I'll sue you for being a perv.
07:44Do as this lady says.
07:53Remorse filled her. She had lost Ted, her best friend, and her virginity.
07:59With a heavy heart, she knew that yesterday was indeed the worst day of her life.
08:06He maintained silence, exuding an air of mystery, a trait she found appealing,
08:12especially following her heartbreak with Ted.
08:15She discreetly stole a glance at him.
08:18With Ted, she discreetly stole a glance at him, struck by the captivating depth of his eyes.
08:27He was interesting, but she also knew this came with danger.
08:31She stared out the window, trying to gain her courage, then at all case, spewing out at once.
08:39And what's up with you? Didn't I tell you I never want to see you again?
08:43Are you surprised to see me?
08:45Well, yes. What are you doing here?
08:49Miss Green, you were the one sitting in my car.
08:53Yes. Sorry. That was my boyfriend, ex-boyfriend, and my best friend.
09:03Well, I thought she was my best friend, who are apparently now a thing.
09:10Anyways, I'm sorry.
09:12I just had to get out of that situation.
09:15So you thought, let's take up hitchhiking and jump in a new one.
09:22Sorry?
09:23Emma looked at Robert with a perplexed expression, unsure of what he meant by his cryptic remark.
09:29She followed his gaze down to her muddy shoes.
09:34I promise, Robert, I'll clean your car.
09:37I promise, Robert, I'll clean your car. I'm sorry for making a mess.
09:43I'll appreciate that.
09:58You should be more careful. Someone dangerous might pick you up.
10:02Although his words made sense, Emma felt like there was something more to how he meant them.
10:08Something felt wrong with what he said.
10:15Okay. Take care.
10:22Even after Emma left the car, he couldn't shake the seductive memories of their passionate night.
10:33The next morning...
10:43Resting on the examination table, she gazes uncomfortably at the various posters displayed on the wall,
10:50each one depicting information regarding STDs and pregnancy.
10:55Let's see.
11:00Please don't be pregnant. Please don't be pregnant.
11:03He's a ******.
11:06Oh, you wouldn't have ****** a girl without protection, would you?
11:16Okay, Miss Green. Your test results are ready. You can put your clothes back on for now.
11:22You can also meet me in the waiting room.
11:25Okay.
11:35Hi. Okay. Your STD results are negative, which is good. Pregnancy test is negative.
11:44Did he not understand that before yesterday she was a virgin?
11:48She was not interested in toys or tools whatsoever.
11:52Never. In fact, she wasn't even interested in the man she lost her virginity to.
11:58That won't be a problem.
12:00Okay, then. I'll leave it to you.
12:03You can pick up your prescription from the pharmacy, and if there's any further pain or discomfort,
12:08you can call us back anytime. And don't worry. It's not to be ashamed of. It's normal.
12:17He turns and exits, and she picks up her bag from the chair next to her.
12:23She looks at the uterus chart. The doctor's words rang in her ears as she looked up close to the female body part.
12:32Easy for him to say. He's a man. If he had lost his virginity to a random girl one drunken night,
12:39he would be celebrated. And why did he bring up toys?
12:44What's the use of having a nice car, nice clothes, lots of money?
12:50What's the use of being handsome if he's a pervert?
12:53However, it's important to consider that these ideas could be mere speculations on her part.
13:05It was naive of Emma to assume it was just speculation.
13:09Robert Erickson was far more sinister than just a pervert.
13:23On the other hand, within the girls' dormitory, an undeniable tension hung thick in the air,
13:29giving life to conversations that revolved solely around Emma Green's heartbreak.
13:34Gossip and hushed exchanges thrived within the dormitory's walls.
13:38Weaving an intricate tale of deceit and heartbreak.
13:42What was once the cherished love story, admired by many, had crumbled into a heap of emotional ruins.
13:49All thanks to Kristen. Kristen, now notorious as the university's most talked-about mistress,
13:55had masterfully enticed Emma's boyfriend Ted into a secretive affair.
14:01This revelation had struck Emma like a bitter blow, shattering her once-promising romance.
14:31Kristen, I want you to move out.
14:41Why? What did I really do wrong?
14:45Now that I think of it, Ted only said that because you couldn't give him what he wants.
14:49I couldn't give him what he wanted because I'm not a f***ing a**.
14:52I was saving myself for the right time.
14:55What?
14:56I am saving myself.
14:58Emma, it's college. We're not all as prude as you.
15:03I definitely wasn't holding him back. I said it already. I don't want Ted anymore.
15:08You can keep him, but this dormitory, as long as I'm here, you need to leave.
15:14Really? You move out then.
15:18My parents already paid for the semester, and as far as I'm concerned,
15:22you were the one struggling to tutor to pay your dues.
15:27Okay. But you're gonna regret it.
15:57How was the doctor's visit?
16:25Are you following me?
16:27Look, I don't know what kind of weird stuff you're into, but I told you already.
16:30I wanted to remind you that apart from just a doctor's appointment, you have one more.
16:38What appointment?
16:39To wash my car, Miss Green.
16:42Um, I'm actually really busy right now. I have midterm coming up and I'm heading to the library.
16:46After this, I will come and do the needful.
17:16Mr. Erickson, what are you doing here?
17:18Get in the car, Emma.
17:20She wasn't sure what made her get in.
17:22There was something about him that made you feel you needed to do what he said.
17:27When she saw the corner of his lips curl up, there was a hint of evil in his smile.
17:58Uh, what are we doing here, Mr. Erickson?
18:02I figured my cat isn't within your caliber, so I borrowed it the job.
18:10What exactly do you want from me?
18:13Just have a meal with me. Isn't that better than cleaning my car?
18:28Today's task is to laugh and eat. Don't talk nonsense.
18:34Emma found out that they would not be eating alone. They had company. A woman.
18:40Hello, Robert. And, uh, you are?
18:44This is Samuel's tutor. Her name is Miss Green.
18:51Hello. I'm Jennifer Walt.
18:54Well, I used to be Samuel's tutor. I resigned to focus on my thesis.
18:59Uh, hi, Miss Walt.
19:01I was afraid I was disturbing you and your other commitments.
19:05You're not. But I had to bring Miss Green here because I made an appointment with her first.
19:12You don't mind, do you?
19:14Of course not. The more the merrier.
19:17I just hope Miss Green doesn't mind that I already ordered food according to what you like.
19:22It's just that I don't know what Miss Green likes. I'll just ask someone to come with the menu.
19:28No need, Miss Walt. I'm not picky.
19:32She isn't picky about food. What I like, she likes to eat.
19:38That's good. Miss Green will have more to eat later.
19:42Miss Green will have more to eat later.
19:49Emma was embarrassed.
19:52During the meal, Robert would occasionally offer her portions of his food.
19:56He was being very gentle, almost like a boyfriend.
20:01Jennifer didn't say much.
20:04However, she would occasionally glance at Emma.
20:07But Emma could not recognize any of the emotions in her eyes.
20:11Was Robert asking Emma to be in some part of a threesome?
20:14The way they spoke to each other was odd. Part business, part lover.
20:19But Emma couldn't quite put her finger on it.
20:24Do you mind if I have a chat with Rob for a moment?
20:29No worries.
20:35Shall we go for a walk?
20:42How have you been?
20:45I'm fine.
20:47Don't try to piss me off. I'm not trying to make you feel bad.
20:52I'm not angry at you. I happen to think Miss Green isn't that bad, don't you?
20:58I know you, Robert. You're doing this to make me jealous.
21:02I think you should go back.
21:04I'm not going back.
21:06I know you, Robert. You're doing this to make me jealous.
21:09I think you should go back.
21:11There'll be a meeting in the afternoon. I still need to drop Emma off at school.
21:16What are you laughing at?
21:36You like Miss Waltz.
21:38Wait. You brought me here to provoke her on purpose, didn't you?
21:44You didn't really have to do that. She obviously has some strong feelings for you as well.
21:48You don't know what you're talking about.
21:51I suggest you refrain from speaking to me out of your place in the future.
21:55Emma watched him with confusion.
21:57In the future, they would never see each other again.
22:01And what was her place with Robert?
22:03If Ted was any kind of an example, she did not want to repeat the same mistake.
22:08Of course, with Robert, she might be overthinking.
22:12Knowing that he had someone he cared for, she actually felt much more relaxed.
22:18Get in the car. I'll take you back to school.
22:21No, thanks. I'll take the bus.
22:42Hello.
23:11Hello.
23:40Hello.
24:06We really have to stop meeting like this. It's starting to creep me out.
24:09Get in the car, Em.
24:11Now he was calling her Em? No one had ever called her that.
24:15Emma was short enough, but she liked the way he said it.
24:20Give me my bag, please.
24:22It'll take you at least an hour and a half to jog from here to your school.
24:27Are you sure you can still make it in time for class?
24:40Someone called you just now.
24:45You answered my phone?
24:47What if it was something urgent?
24:50What did he say?
24:51He just asked who I was and where you were.
24:56So, how did you answer?
24:58Is it important?
25:00This is my phone. You answered it without my permission.
25:04I have every right to know the subject of conversation.
25:07I said I'm your extortion target.
25:10Your bag was in my car.
25:13So, you're a boyfriend, right?
25:16Ex-boyfriend.
25:19Did you guys fight?
25:20That has nothing to do with you, Ms. Derrickson.
25:34Without saying another word, she turned around and walked towards the school.
25:43But not long after she walked, nearby, someone shouted.
25:48Emma!
25:50Jack!
25:52As Robert observed the car parked across from him, his face turned pale with surprise.
25:58Was that Jack Mayer, the eldest son of the Mayer family?
26:02It seemed that he had greatly underestimated Emma Green.
26:07You said you'd be gone for two months.
26:09Yeah, Dad broke his leg a few days ago, so I came back early.
26:12Do you want me to take you to go see him?
26:15Hmm, you still can't forgive him.
26:17How can I? Besides, I know my place.
26:20Emma, don't be like that. I've never treated you like an outsider.
26:25I know.
26:26So, is that Erickson?
26:30Yeah, and that car, Robert.
26:33And how do you know him?
26:35I'm his brother's tutor.
26:37So, you're still working. What about that card I gave you?
26:43Emma, that's not the Mayer's family's money. That's me giving a gift to my sister.
26:48Yeah, but you still have the Mayer's surname.
26:52Emma, stop being so stubborn. I feel bad for you.
26:55Don't. I really like my life right now.
26:58Well, at least promise me you'll stay away from Robert Erickson. He's very dangerous.
27:03I know. I'm not stupid.
27:06Brother, I'm running late. I really have to go.
27:09Alright. Let me take you out for dinner tonight. I'll pick you up.
27:12Send me the address. I'll see you later.
27:15Okay.
27:16Robert Erickson was not someone who would just drop Emma off at school to be a good guy.
27:21What was his agenda?
27:23Could it be possible that he had stumbled upon some crucial information?
27:28A revelation that could potentially unravel secrets and hidden truths?
27:33As the wheels of speculation spun in Jack's mind,
27:37he couldn't help but wonder if Robert's actions held a deeper purpose.
27:47Emma rings the doorbell,
27:51and a member of the house staff lets her in.
27:57She walked through the front part of the house, viewing it in a new light.
28:02This time, she was paying attention to the design choices made in the space.
28:12Why are you here?
28:14This is my house.
28:19I've been waiting for you.
28:22Waiting for me? I told you I was handing in my resignation.
28:26Well then, I should ask you.
28:30Why are you here?
28:32Wouldn't a call or an email suffice?
28:36Oh, I wanted to tell Samuel in person. I felt it was only right.
28:41Right.
28:43From now on, I think you should stay here, or go somewhere else.
28:48From now on, I think you should stay here and focus more on helping Samuel with his studies.
28:54Wait, you mean live here?
28:58That's right. Samuel has a month before the college entrance exam.
29:03He needs all the help he can get. Plus, it'll be more convenient for you to stay here.
29:10No, I'm a student.
29:13I have to stay at the dormitory. Besides, this place is too far from campus.
29:18It's inconvenient to be going back and forth.
29:21Oh, I can help you with the accommodation to your school.
29:24No jogging back and forth and whatnot.
29:29I can send you a car. It's a win-win.
29:33That's not necessary.
29:35What I mean is, it's inappropriate for us to live together.
29:39And to live with someone I teach.
29:41I did not realize that your thoughts were so... vulgar.
29:47Could it be that you like Samuel?
29:50Samuel is just my student.
29:52Then do you like me?
29:54Of course not.
29:56Since you don't like either of us, what's there to be afraid of?
30:01Miss Green, I think I still need to remind you that you were the one who took the initiative that night.
30:09You're a man. I don't believe you have the power to reject me.
30:14You don't seem to know very much about men.
30:18Most men would never reject a woman who voluntarily throws herself into their arms.
30:24Unless that man's sexual function is lacking.
30:28Speaking of which, I'm a little curious.
30:33Yesterday, I saw you talking to Ted Smith.
30:37Today, you were hugging Jack Mayer.
30:42Miss Green, it seems that I have totally underestimated your ability with the opposite sex.
30:51You and I are not close.
30:53I don't feel any obligation to share my secrets.
30:56I do not need you interfering in my personal matters.
31:00Also, you promised to keep what happened between you and I private.
31:05This was the first time Robert had met a woman who was not afraid of him.
31:11She was like a little wild cat that was ready to attack at any time.
31:17Of course, I've never told anyone about the matter of you sleeping with me.
31:24Then why pry into my love life?
31:27I'm just trying to win the argument based on what you said.
31:32You're not the only non-family member living in my house.
31:35It's not appropriate to think of this arrangement as inappropriate while you live here.
31:42You're like the other people I've hired.
31:45I'll provide the food and the shelter.
31:48You'll be responsible for teaching Samuel here.
31:51That's all.
31:58Miss Green's living arrangements have been negotiated.
32:02You can begin your lessons.
32:11Emma was speechless.
32:13Who did he negotiate with?
32:15It was him who made the decision.
32:18However, if she really thought about it,
32:21this could also lead to a conflict.
32:24However, if she really thought about it,
32:26this could also be a good idea.
32:30She had planned on moving out of the dormitory anyway.
32:33It would get her away from Kristen for good.
32:39She could use the next month to find a new house to live in.
32:45After she finished her tutoring session with Samuel,
32:48she rushed to the restaurant.
32:55Perfect timing. Dinner has just been served.
33:06Eat slowly. It's not like anybody's going to snatch it from you.
33:10You can't win against me. I'll eat it all. Everything.
33:14Okay. You eat it all.
33:16If we need to order some more, not a problem.
33:19If Angie was here and saw how skinny you are,
33:22it would probably make her heart ache to death.
33:25Jack, please.
33:27Okay, okay. Please, just eat.
33:43Elsa, what brings you here?
33:47Why are you like this?
33:50You came from overseas and you didn't even come to visit your actual sister.
33:55Instead, you're here, having dinner with her, the illegitimate daughter.
34:00Shut up.
34:02She was the illegitimate daughter to begin with.
34:05Disgrace to her mother.
34:07How could you be so nice to her?
34:10Elsa, you need to be more respectful, okay?
34:13Elsa, you need to be more respectful, okay?
34:16Jack, at the end, I am your real sister.
34:20Ms. Mario, please, speak to me with respect.
34:23First of all, I don't have a father.
34:26Secondly, I have never used a single cent of the Mayor family's money,
34:30even when my mother was ill and hospitalized.
34:33Even when we needed money to save her life, not even then did I ask for help.
34:38No one in the Mayor family has the right to criticize me.
34:42Your existence is a disgrace.
34:45I'm proud to be my mother's daughter, whether you like it or not.
34:56Emma, Emma, Emma, please. Elsa, she's...
34:59Brother, don't speak anymore. Save some dignity for me.
35:04I'll leave first. Call me if you need anything.
35:13Are you satisfied?
35:32Oh, Mom, I miss you so much.
