Short filmTranscript
00:00:00I, Alisa, a nobody in the workplace, single since birth for 23 years, never even held
00:00:13a man's hand, but last night I accidentally slept with my boss.
00:00:17He's a CEO, he's the kind of guy that you read about in novels, and he already has a
00:00:22woman in his heart.
00:00:23Hey, it's been a really long night.
00:00:25Hey, it's been a really long night, and I think it should be a longer night.
00:00:34You should come over.
00:00:36I'll see you soon.
00:00:41What do you mean by question mark?
00:00:43Because you used to be fun.
00:00:45I have good wine.
00:00:47I'm in room 1501.
00:00:49I'll see you soon.
00:00:55I'm coming.
00:01:06I'm sorry.
00:01:09What are you doing?
00:01:25I'm sorry.
00:01:36Alisa?
00:01:37Hey, Mom.
00:01:38Please come home as soon as possible.
00:01:40I just received an order from the court.
00:01:43Since we are unable to repay the huge debt your father owed, our house will be auctioned
00:01:48off to pay off the debt.
00:01:50We must move out of the house now.
00:01:52Don't worry, I'm going to be right there.
00:02:03Oh my God.
00:02:04Mom, are you okay?
00:02:07I'm fine, honey.
00:02:10I'm so sorry I couldn't save the house.
00:02:14Don't worry.
00:02:15As long as we're together, we'll get through this difficult time.
00:02:20I'm sorry.
00:02:23Is there anything else in there?
00:02:25No, this is it.
00:02:29One second, okay?
00:02:30I'll be right back.
00:02:32Hello?
00:02:33Alisa, where are you?
00:02:35Don't you remember?
00:02:36We were supposed to meet in the conference room at 9.
00:02:39Manager Smith got crazy looking for you.
00:02:41I'm so sorry, but something unexpected happened at home and if you could please just tell management
00:02:46that...
00:02:49Hello?
00:02:51No, no, no, no, no.
00:02:52Stop.
00:02:55I just lost my house and now I'm going to lose my job too?
00:02:58Where am I going to find a million dollars?
00:03:04Alisa?
00:03:06Why are you crying?
00:03:08Um...
00:03:12Mr. Hawthorne, what are you doing here?
00:03:14Oh, I'm actually here for you.
00:03:16What?
00:03:17I need a marriage partner.
00:03:19Again, what?
00:03:20I need you to be my wife.
00:03:23Give it a thought.
00:03:26Mr. Hawthorne, I was really drunk last night and I can't remember how everything happened after,
00:03:33but you really don't...
00:03:34Look, I know some unfortunate things have happened in your family recently.
00:03:40This card has more than enough on it to pay off all your debts and make sure that your house
00:03:45doesn't get auctioned off.
00:03:47If you agree, we can get the marriage certificate right now.
00:03:59Why do you want to help me?
00:04:01I told you, I need a wife.
00:04:04And you're the most suitable person.
00:04:11Okay.
00:04:13It's for my family.
00:04:15I have no other way.
00:04:19Mr. Hawthorne, thank you so much for helping me.
00:04:22I promise I will pay you back every cent as soon as I can.
00:04:25You don't pay me back more than happy.
00:04:30I'm gonna get back to work then.
00:04:32Ronan will actually take you back.
00:04:35And I'll give you my home address so you can move in tonight.
00:04:38Your home address?
00:04:41We're legally married.
00:04:42What's wrong with living together?
00:04:44Right, this is a deal.
00:04:46I can't just take the money and get nothing in return.
00:04:49I can get myself to work.
00:04:51And I'll be back on time tonight.
00:05:00Elisa, you're finally mine.
00:05:07Oh my god!
00:05:08I'm so sorry!
00:05:09It was raining and I didn't see you there.
00:05:11Don't worry, it's fine.
00:05:17Can I have your name?
00:05:18I'm Elisa.
00:05:21Yo!
00:05:22Never knew Mr. Hawthorne would have such a silly smile moment.
00:05:26Alright.
00:05:31It's real?
00:05:32If your mom finds out you married a Cinderella...
00:05:34Alright, I give a fuck.
00:05:36Then watch your mouth.
00:05:41You really married Mr. Hawthorne?
00:05:44It's just a contract marriage.
00:05:45Shh!
00:05:46We'll explain it to you later.
00:05:47Mrs. Elisa Hawthorne.
00:05:50You are the CEO's wife, so where is my pay break?
00:05:53Cut it out.
00:05:54We've known each other since middle school.
00:05:56I don't think he actually likes me.
00:05:58Plus, everyone in the company knows who he actually wants to be with.
00:06:04Miss Hart is back!
00:06:12Miss Hart is back!
00:06:19Hello everyone.
00:06:20Please, help yourself to have some cake.
00:06:23Thank you, Miss Hart.
00:06:25You are so very kind.
00:06:26It's really such an honor to work with you.
00:06:28Please, don't flatter me.
00:06:30I have to go see Mr. Hawthorne right now.
00:06:33He must want to see me right now.
00:06:35Save a slice for me, honey.
00:06:38When do you think they will make their relationship public?
00:06:41Probably soon.
00:06:42Last time I accidentally saw Mr. Hawthorne unlock his phone,
00:06:45the code is 0903, Miss Hart's birthday.
00:06:48Isn't it a little too obvious?
00:06:50Wow, I never knew Mr. Hawthorne would be so romantic.
00:06:52He usually puts on a poker face.
00:06:54Amelia, my relationship with Mr. Hawthorne...
00:06:59Please don't talk about it.
00:07:00Okay.
00:07:08Okay.
00:07:120903.
00:07:16It's Summer's birthday again.
00:07:18If they love each other so much, then...
00:07:21It's okay.
00:07:22Whatever it is, he's just not getting his money back.
00:07:34Why aren't you coming in?
00:07:36Why aren't you coming in?
00:07:39Why aren't you coming in?
00:07:41Mr. Hawthorne, I think that we should...
00:07:42Follow me.
00:08:03What should I do?
00:08:04Am I supposed to sleep with him tonight?
00:08:07I know that we did that before, but...
00:08:09I was drunk.
00:08:13If I turn him down, will he get angry?
00:08:15But...
00:08:17If I don't...
00:08:18Alyssa?
00:08:19You okay?
00:08:21I'm fine.
00:08:22Thank you for asking.
00:08:35Listen, I'm...
00:08:36I'm not ready.
00:08:38I was...
00:08:39Just gonna turn off the light.
00:08:42What did you think I was gonna do?
00:08:44Oh yeah, no...
00:08:46Don't get me wrong, I just meant I wasn't ready to sleep yet.
00:08:50Alyssa...
00:08:51I don't want some one-night stand.
00:08:54I wanna be your everything.
00:09:00Matthew!
00:09:01Why did the negotiations with the sunlight crew fail?
00:09:03It's...
00:09:04Alyssa's fault.
00:09:05If she hadn't skipped work that day, we could have succeeded.
00:09:08How is it her fault?
00:09:10Please give me a reasonable explanation.
00:09:12I heard someone saw Mr. Hawthorne...
00:09:16Entering her hotel room the night before Alyssa skipped work.
00:09:20What?
00:09:21What did you say to me?
00:09:22It is absolutely true.
00:09:24Not only did she cause our failure...
00:09:27But she dared to seduce Mr. Hawthorne when you were away.
00:09:34Matthew...
00:09:35You know how important our negotiations with the sunlight crew is.
00:09:40And since it is your subordinate's fault, you know what to do.
00:09:45Right.
00:09:46Mr. Shirt, I know what to do.
00:09:54Last night, with Lucian laying beside me, I couldn't sleep at all.
00:09:59With Lucian laying beside me, I couldn't sleep at all.
00:10:04Alyssa, is this how you do your job?
00:10:07Look what trouble you brought us!
00:10:09It is because of you that we lost the project with the sunlight crew.
00:10:12You're fired.
00:10:14Mr. Clark, I was only in charge of the initial budget, not the negotiations.
00:10:18I don't understand how this could be my fault.
00:10:20Did you forget about your unexcused absence last time?
00:10:25Did you forget about your unexcused absence last time?
00:10:28That's because something unexpected happened at home, but I called in for a leave of absence.
00:10:32So what? We needed you last minute, and you weren't there.
00:10:36Now that the project has failed, if you're not to blame, who else would it be?
00:10:41I was absent that day, yes, but I prepared the initial budget ahead of time,
00:10:46so there is no way that my absence would have affected the negotiations.
00:10:50Wouldn't have affected the negotiations?
00:10:53Alyssa, take a closer look.
00:10:55What did you write in the project budget?
00:10:58No, no, no, this isn't right.
00:11:00I wrote $50 million.
00:11:02How did it become $5 million?
00:11:10For a professional budget analyst, you've made such a sloppy mistake.
00:11:14Alyssa, do you have anything else to say for yourself?
00:11:17Looks like Alyssa is in trouble.
00:11:20Alyssa always strikes me as a professional.
00:11:22How could she make such an error?
00:11:24Keep it down. Can't you see?
00:11:26You're just trying to find someone to take responsibility.
00:11:32Wait, I have evidence to prove that my budget was correct.
00:11:38Evidence? Then why don't you show it to everyone?
00:11:41I have the dated source files on my computer that can show that I had the right numbers.
00:11:46No, no, they were right here. How could they be gone?
00:11:49Alyssa, are you joking?
00:11:52Alyssa, are you joking? Where's your so-called evidence?
00:11:56Alyssa?
00:11:58Are you suggesting that Mr. Clark and Ms. Hart are conspiring against you?
00:12:03You better pack up and leave now before making a bigger fool out of yourself.
00:12:07What are you saying? I've seen the budget Alyssa made.
00:12:10We all checked it as a team.
00:12:15Obviously, someone tampered with it.
00:12:17Are you saying that we are framing her?
00:12:19At the very least, she deserves a good reason to be fired.
00:12:23Fine. If anyone else can vouch for Alyssa, I can give her a second chance.
00:12:28Anyone?
00:12:32Weren't you there when we checked that time?
00:12:34I don't remember.
00:12:39Since there's no one, Alyssa, would you like to walk yourself out or would you like me to have someone escort you out?
00:12:50This better be something important.
00:12:52Mr. Hawthorne, the business department is in uproar.
00:12:55So? Can't Summer handle it?
00:12:57She started this. Her and Mr. Clark are trying to fire Mrs. Hawthorne.
00:13:02Let's go.
00:13:05Amelia, it's okay. They clearly just want someone to blame for this entire thing.
00:13:09So what should we do then? Allow them to push all the blame onto you?
00:13:14Ms. Hart. Mr. Clark.
00:13:17I'll step down from my position, but I will never admit to mistakes that I didn't make.
00:13:22I will get down to the bottom of this.
00:13:24You're shameless. The evidence is right here.
00:13:27Where do you get the nerve to deny it?
00:13:29Besides the project bug, there's also surveillance footage and their computer backend logs.
00:13:34All of these will prove that my budget was correct, and I will investigate this until the end.
00:13:39There is no need for an investigation.
00:13:42You have already been fired.
00:13:46Since you refuse to leave, security, drag her out.
00:13:57Elisa, you dare to seduce the man I like when I'm not around?
00:14:01You'll never set foot in Hawthorne Group ever again.
00:14:10Summer? What are you doing?
00:14:16Why is he here? Could it be he's here to support Summer?
00:14:20Lucia! What brings you here?
00:14:23Let her go.
00:14:26What's going on with these two? Am I fired or not? Could it be I'm just a pawn in their game?
00:14:32Care to explain what's going on?
00:14:34Well, Elisa made a big mistake at work, so I fired her.
00:14:38But she refused to leave, disrupting everyone at work.
00:14:41So Matthew called security to escort her out.
00:14:44Fired for what?
00:14:45Here's the thing, Mr. Hawthorne.
00:14:47The negotiations with the Sunlight Group failed due to Elisa's mistake.
00:14:51We had to let her go according to company regulations.
00:14:53You set me up with some half-baked plan, tried to fire me, and then called security.
00:14:58Is that within the lines of regulation?
00:15:01Elisa, how dare you question company regulations in front of Mr. Hawthorne?
00:15:05Lucia, see? She won't admit her mistakes, and she even questions you in public.
00:15:12Oh God, now I'm really fired.
00:15:16Elisa actually talked back to Mr. Hawthorne. She has to be fired now.
00:15:24I'm actually pitying her, no matter what.
00:15:26Pitying her? You're an employee too. Mind your own business.
00:15:32Elisa, you sure are bald, aren't you?
00:15:35Elisa, don't you know what Mr. Hawthorne means? Hurry up and leave.
00:15:39Of course Lucian is on Summer's side. I'm just his wife out of nowhere.
00:15:46Surely I'm no match for his lover.
00:15:54Hold on.
00:15:59Can I tell you to leave?
00:16:00You're not angry?
00:16:02Why would I be angry?
00:16:04The company needs to find out who's responsible for Sunrise Group Project first.
00:16:07Ronan, take charge of that.
00:16:09Yes, Mr. Hawthorne.
00:16:10So what you're saying is I'm not fired. At least for now.
00:16:16Lucian, Elisa not only made mistakes on this project, but she was absent from work without permission.
00:16:21And she defied you in public.
00:16:23Summer, I'll handle company policy, okay?
00:16:26But we never, ever fire an employee for no reason.
00:16:30I... I agree with Lucian.
00:16:34Matthew, I told you to wait until the investigation was done, but you insisted that the results were clear.
00:16:39Apologize to Mr. Hawthorne right now.
00:16:42Yes, Ms. Hart.
00:16:44Is Lucian helping me? But as a CEO, he needs to do things fairly in front of his employees.
00:16:50This proves nothing.
00:16:52Elisa, may I have a few words with you?
00:16:55Elisa, you are damn lucky this time.
00:16:58But you won't be for the next time.
00:17:11Mr. Hawthorne, if this is about the project, then I'm so sorry that you were bothered.
00:17:15Do you think that's why I brought you here?
00:17:19Do you think that's why I brought you here?
00:17:21Do you think that's why I brought you here?
00:17:23Next time something like that happens, come see me. Don't let me handle it.
00:17:28You're so busy. I didn't want to bother you.
00:17:32We're married.
00:17:36You can do whatever you want.
00:17:38We're at the office. Don't fool around.
00:17:41Fool around?
00:17:43Well, that's the proper thing, since we're married.
00:17:46Well, by that I guess you mean I should act like your wife all the time?
00:17:52Even while we're at work?
00:17:54That's not necessarily what I mean.
00:17:58Well, if that's all, Mr. Hawthorne, I guess I'll be going back to work.
00:18:09Elisa.
00:18:10Remember my words. Stay away from my girl.
00:18:16Elisa.
00:18:19Elisa, when you were in Mr. Hawthorne's office...
00:18:21Amelia!
00:18:23I can't really understand the theater over here. Can you help me, please?
00:18:32Ms. Hart?
00:18:34May I help you?
00:18:35You are still under investigation.
00:18:37Now isn't the current time for you to be working on company projects.
00:18:41But I was just looking over the project budget for the next thing.
00:18:44Your current mission is to go downstairs and fetch me a cup of coffee.
00:18:47Can't you see the trash is full? Clean it.
00:18:51Ms. Hart.
00:18:53I'm an analyst. I'm not an intern.
00:18:55What? Are you defying your superior?
00:18:58Someone is really ignorant. She hasn't been clarified yet.
00:19:02Now she's defying her superior. Does she think she owns the company?
00:19:06Right? Ms. Hart is not just the daughter of a noble family.
00:19:10She also has an unusual relationship with our president.
00:19:13It would be in your best interest to help Ms. Hart with the trifle.
00:19:17Stop being ungrateful.
00:19:19Elisa, I can have you fired for defying your superior.
00:19:23So you better choose wisely.
00:19:26You're right. I like my job.
00:19:28And I'm going to become an excellent executive in my dream company.
00:19:33Fine.
00:19:35I'll do it.
00:19:43Better to bend than break, huh?
00:19:45It doesn't matter. Let's see how long you can keep tolerating.
00:19:51Ms. Hart, your coffee.
00:19:53Hand it to me.
00:20:03Oh my god, this coffee is so hot. It almost burned me alive.
00:20:07Oh my god, I'm so sorry. Are you okay?
00:20:09Don't you know I only drink iced americano? Who hired you anyway?
00:20:13I'm so sorry. I will go buy you one later.
00:20:15Can't you see there's coffee on the floor? Clean it up. Now.
00:20:25Who told you you could mop the floor with that?
00:20:28If you damage the floors, can you afford to pay for them?
00:20:31How exactly would you like me to mop the floor, Ms. Hart?
00:20:34With a cloth on your hands and knees, inch by inch.
00:20:39Sorry, don't you think you're going a little too far?
00:20:42What? Can't handle it? You could always quit.
00:20:51Well, by that I guess you mean I should act like your wife all the time?
00:20:56Even while we're at work?
00:20:59Mr. Hawthorne, there's an upcoming online meeting with an overseas company.
00:21:03Uh-huh.
00:21:05Hey, is the business department next to the meeting room?
00:21:08Yes, Mr. Hawthorne.
00:21:10I gotta visit first.
00:21:12He was just at work, Mrs. Hawthorne, and he's already so eager to see her.
00:21:15He's completely in love with her.
00:21:20Ms. Hart, would you please lift your foot?
00:21:23Ah!
00:21:25Oh, I'm sorry.
00:21:27I didn't do it on purpose.
00:21:29Elise, when you were seducing Lucian when I was away, have you ever thought of today?
00:21:36I didn't seduce him.
00:21:38You didn't? Do you really think I wouldn't know because I was away?
00:21:43If you wanted to seduce Lucian, then you must be prepared for my revenge.
00:21:47Scylla, what the hell are you doing?
00:21:52Scylla, what the hell are you doing?
00:21:54Lucian!
00:21:55Elise, are you all right?
00:21:56Elise is still under investigation, right?
00:21:58She's not suitable for working on company projects, so I had her doing simpler tasks like fetching me coffee.
00:22:04But she spilled the coffee on purpose.
00:22:06That isn't true.
00:22:07It doesn't matter anyway. I don't blame her for it.
00:22:09But she insisted on wiping it up.
00:22:11I stepped on her by accident.
00:22:13I was about to apologize to her.
00:22:15Is that so?
00:22:17Elise, is that actually what happened?
00:22:19Lucian is in love with Scylla.
00:22:21Even if I told the truth, would he believe me?
00:22:24Yes, it's the truth.
00:22:27Come with me to my office.
00:22:30Come!
00:22:32Why on earth did Lucian call Elisa to his office again?
00:22:37We must find out.
00:22:44Have a seat.
00:22:46Your hands hurt. You need an advantage.
00:22:49It's... it's really fine.
00:22:51I can just go home and...
00:22:52No, no, I got it all right.
00:22:54Have a seat.
00:22:59All right, let's see.
00:23:01You know, Summer is competent, but she can be bossy and overbearing.
00:23:06I can transfer you to another department.
00:23:08If you can't bear her, maybe mine.
00:23:12So we can spend more time together.
00:23:14No. No, I'm fine in the business department.
00:23:17Elisa, you're my wife.
00:23:19I don't want you to be bullied anymore.
00:23:21Stop pretending like you don't know she only does that because she's in love with you.
00:23:25Okay, last step.
00:23:29Okay.
00:23:30Just don't let this hand touch water for a little bit.
00:23:32Thank you, Mr. Hawthorne.
00:23:35It's just the two of us.
00:23:38You can call me by my name.
00:23:40When we're at work, I thought I shouldn't.
00:23:42Yeah, why shouldn't you?
00:23:43Lucian, why did you marry me?
00:23:45And why do you keep defending me?
00:23:48Do you really not know why?
00:23:50We've known each other since high school, but he's always kind of ignored me.
00:23:54Hasn't he always had a thing for Summer?
00:23:57Or could it be that everyone has been wrong all along?
00:24:06Bloody Elisa.
00:24:08You sure are good at playing naive.
00:24:11I must find a way to teach you a lesson.
00:24:15A reunion party?
00:24:17The gods are favoring me.
00:24:20Elisa, I must teach you a lesson this time.
00:24:28Alright, it's ready.
00:24:31How many slices do you want?
00:24:33Mom, what's wrong?
00:24:34Elisa, isn't our house supposed to be auctioned off by the court to pay off our debts?
00:24:41Why hasn't this happened yet?
00:24:44Um...
00:24:47Well, I borrowed some money from a friend to help pay off the debts.
00:24:52What friend could afford to lend you so much money at once?
00:24:58Since we went bankrupt, all our old friends have disappeared.
00:25:03Well, Mom, you don't have to worry about it.
00:25:07It's okay.
00:25:08Elisa.
00:25:10Hey.
00:25:11Elisa, what took you so long?
00:25:13What's up?
00:25:14There's a school reunion party this weekend.
00:25:16They notified us in the group, but I figured you haven't read it yet since you didn't respond,
00:25:21so I'm just giving you a heads up.
00:25:23It's been ages.
00:25:25Why is there a high school reunion party out of nowhere?
00:25:28Here's the monthly report from the business department.
00:25:31Just leave it over there.
00:25:40How about we grab a drink tonight? I know a good place.
00:25:44I actually have plans tonight.
00:25:46If you don't have anything else, you can leave.
00:25:49Lucian, it's been so long...
00:25:51Summer, I said I'm busy.
00:25:53Please leave.
00:25:58Hold on. Will you be at the high school reunion?
00:26:00Summer, how many ways do I have to say this?
00:26:02I'm busy!
00:26:03Leave!
00:26:04Lucian, you have to be so gentle with me.
00:26:07But ever since Elisa came, I've become colder and colder.
00:26:12Elisa?
00:26:13Don't worry, Elisa.
00:26:19I wonder if Lucian received the invitation to the reunion.
00:26:23Is he going?
00:26:24Something on your mind?
00:26:26It's not a big deal, but there's the high school reunion party later.
00:26:30Are you going?
00:26:32Are you going?
00:26:33I don't know.
00:26:35I know you made a good point, but we don't really see each other that often.
00:26:39I thought it'd be nice to get together.
00:26:41Oh, you know what?
00:26:43I actually have a meeting.
00:26:45I think I'll pass.
00:26:46Okay.
00:26:47Yeah, that's fine.
00:26:48I'll send you something though, since I can't be there.
00:26:51You really don't have to do that.
00:26:52And I know it's far, so...
00:26:54Take this.
00:26:57Lucian, it's...
00:26:58That's way too expensive.
00:27:00I'm just gonna take the subway.
00:27:02Elisa, I'm capable of offering you a better life.
00:27:05Why would you take the subway?
00:27:07Consider this a gift.
00:27:09Lucian is acting like he actually likes me.
00:27:13What game is he playing?
00:27:15It's mine.
00:27:16Take it.
00:27:19You're just giving this to me?
00:27:21Well, I'm your husband.
00:27:23Legally speaking, what's mine is yours.
00:27:27Well, thank you then.
00:27:33This is a customized version.
00:27:35It probably costs millions.
00:27:37Jesus, Elisa!
00:27:38If it weren't for you, I'd never get to be in such a luxurious car.
00:27:42Seems like Mr. Hawthorne really is madly in love with you.
00:27:45You know, I'm still at the point where I'm wondering if he even likes me.
00:27:48He does treat me well, though.
00:27:50You know, all of his passwords are still Summer's birthday.
00:27:54I don't know.
00:27:55I'm probably just overthinking.
00:27:57Maybe it's a misunderstanding or a coincidence.
00:28:02I feel like Mr. Hawthorne is quite cold to Summer.
00:28:05I don't think he's into her.
00:28:06No, that's just because he's trying to keep the down-low at work.
00:28:10Well, even if he were trying to keep it that way...
00:28:13Do you know how that saying goes?
00:28:15We can try to hide our feelings, but we forget that our eyes can speak.
00:28:20The way he looks at Summer, it doesn't feel right.
00:28:23Do you know what I mean?
00:28:24I have absolutely no idea what you mean, because you sound crazy.
00:28:27You... I'm done. You're so mean. I can't.
00:28:30Well, we're late. We have to go.
00:28:31Okay.
00:28:40Hello, everyone. Long time no see.
00:28:43So sorry we're late.
00:28:44So, it's Elisa.
00:28:46What is it?
00:28:47The poor student back then is playing heirs now?
00:28:52Did you make us wait on purpose?
00:28:57Did you plan to arrive late deliberately to attract our attention?
00:29:01Elisa, you were still using the same lame tricks as back then, weren't you?
00:29:06Who wants to pay attention to her?
00:29:08After all this year, she still speaks of poverty.
00:29:13Hey, don't say such a word.
00:29:16What if she's doing well and busy with work?
00:29:20Maybe she didn't mean to be late.
00:29:22Her? She's probably a low-level employee.
00:29:24How well could she be doing?
00:29:26What do you mean by that?
00:29:27Elisa and I were just...
00:29:31Oh, Summer's here.
00:29:33Although it's been years since we graduated, she's only been more gorgeous.
00:29:36Summer is both the daughter of the noble family and Mr. Hopper's childhood friend.
00:29:43That Summer is more than jealous now.
00:29:45Summer, come on. Sit next to me.
00:29:48I reserve the mate.
00:29:53Sorry I'm late. Traffic was terrible.
00:29:57Never mind. It's our honor to have you.
00:29:59Summer, did you buy a new sports car?
00:30:02Not really. I just picked this one out of the garage because I was in a hurry.
00:30:07I'm actually tired of driving it. I haven't used it in...
00:30:11A sports car? That's something I can never afford.
00:30:14It's not that much. It's only a few hundred thousand.
00:30:18Wow. Summer sure is rich.
00:30:21Such an expensive car, but it's not nothing to her.
00:30:25Naturally. Don't you know who Summer is?
00:30:27Such a luxury car and nothing but the toy to her.
00:30:31She can have as many as she wants.
00:30:33What a bunch of snobs.
00:30:35Elisa, what car did you drive here?
00:30:40She? How could a poor girl like her afford a car?
00:30:44She must be taking the subway.
00:30:46Why does she race? That's the reason.
00:30:49Elisa, the subway will soon stop running.
00:30:52Do you want me to give you a ride?
00:30:54Oh, Summer. You're still so kind-hearted.
00:30:57But how can somebody as low as her be riding in your luxury car?
00:31:03Be careful not to get her power disengel over you. It probably won't come off.
00:31:07What nonsense are you talking about?
00:31:09Elisa didn't take the subway and it wouldn't matter if she did.
00:31:12She drove here.
00:31:14And a fancy new limited edition convertible.
00:31:18And something more expensive than you can imagine.
00:31:21Oh my god. What a big mouth.
00:31:24What the hell? It really is a convertible.
00:31:27Impossible. She can never afford that.
00:31:30Elisa, did you rent a car just to show off at the reunion?
00:31:34It's not rented.
00:31:36Not rented? Who are you trying to fool?
00:31:39You can't afford even the cheapest one of such cars, even if you're selling yourself.
00:31:43Summer, is Hawthorne Group really that good?
00:31:47Even a little employee can afford such a fancy convertible?
00:31:51Hardly. Although Hawthorne Group does have good benefits, it's not to that extent.
00:31:57With her salary, she could probably never afford it.
00:32:01Even if she worked herself to death.
00:32:04Elisa, we're all classmates here.
00:32:06You don't have to pretend to be rich.
00:32:08It probably costs half your salary to rent that car.
00:32:11It's best not to be so vain.
00:32:13What's the point of it? It's like the Cinderella.
00:32:15It will revert to its true form after midnight.
00:32:17Elisa, don't you find yourself ridiculous?
00:32:20Of course. I can never disguise to be rich.
00:32:23I'm sorry to disappoint you, but it's not rented.
00:32:27It's a gift from my husband.
00:32:30Mr. Hawthorne, Mr. Walker's arrived. The meeting can start any time.
00:32:34All right.
00:32:35Oh, hey, by the way, my wife is having a class reunion tomorrow.
00:32:38Invite someone over for some fine wine. What hours are fine?
00:32:41Yes, Mr. Hawthorne.
00:32:43I'm sorry to disappoint you, but it's not rented.
00:32:46It's a gift from my husband.
00:32:48Elisa, what's the point of lying?
00:32:51First you rent a car to show off at the reunion,
00:32:55and now you're making up a story about a wealthy husband?
00:32:59Are you living in a novel?
00:33:01Summer, aren't you colleagues with Elisa?
00:33:03You should know if she's married or not, right?
00:33:07It's not my business.
00:33:09Even though I'm her superior, I try not to pry.
00:33:13Although I don't think so.
00:33:15If she really had a rich husband, why would she work for so little salary?
00:33:21So, Elisa is lying again.
00:33:24She is so shameless.
00:33:27Amelia, I think you should stay away from Elisa.
00:33:31She got a bad influence on you.
00:33:36And what do you know?
00:33:38Elisa's husband.
00:33:40Okay, okay, you guys keep partying.
00:33:43Amelia, let's go.
00:33:46Excuse me, these are the wines sent by Mr. Hawthorne.
00:33:53Oh, 1982 Lafite?
00:33:57But we didn't order these wines.
00:33:59I'll send you something else since I can't be there.
00:34:02The wine is for me, right?
00:34:04He did say he would send something over.
00:34:06This is too much.
00:34:08Summer, this wine must be a special gift from Mr. Hawthorne for you.
00:34:11Yeah, the only one among us who deserves such attention from Mr. Hawthorne is Summer.
00:34:17Who else could it be?
00:34:19This wine is for Mr. Hawthorne too.
00:34:21Summer and Mr. Hawthorne have been a perfect match since school.
00:34:24And now they are still so affectionate.
00:34:26I wonder if they are going to get married soon.
00:34:28Of course, Summer is future president's wife.
00:34:32Unlike someone.
00:34:34Oh, Elisa, you see.
00:34:37Oh, Elisa, you see.
00:34:39You can never shake my bond with Lucien.
00:34:42Alright everyone, since Lucien sent over these wines, let's enjoy them together.
00:34:47But Summer, this is 1982 Lafite.
00:34:50I think some people here are not worthy of drinking such fine wine.
00:34:56They say cast your pearls before swine.
00:34:58Even if we let Elisa drink it, she wouldn't know how good Lafite is.
00:35:02That's true.
00:35:03To her, it would be a waste.
00:35:05You're all wrong.
00:35:06This wine is for me.
00:35:10This wine is for me.
00:35:12Did I hear that right?
00:35:14You said that this wine was given to you by Mr. Hawthorne?
00:35:17It's hilarious.
00:35:18Do you think you're Mrs. Hawthorne?
00:35:20Mrs. Hawthorne is Summer.
00:35:23Are you daydreaming, Elisa?
00:35:25Do you think you're some Cinderella who married a president?
00:35:29Elisa, are you jealous of me?
00:35:31You're jealous of me?
00:35:32Not only jealous of my family background and my job,
00:35:35now you're jealous of my relationship with Lucien
00:35:38and wanting to name the wines that were given to me.
00:35:40Don't you know that even if you try your hardest,
00:35:43what's not meant for you will never, never be yours?
00:35:48Oh Summer, don't ruin your mood over such a rat in the gutter.
00:35:52She's just a clown.
00:35:53How can you be so confident that the wine is for Summer?
00:35:57When Summer and Mr. Hawthorne started dating,
00:36:00Elisa was somewhere picking up trash.
00:36:03All you ever do is talk.
00:36:05Why the hell would I lie about something like this?
00:36:07Who knows?
00:36:08After all, you don't understand how the poor thinks.
00:36:11Hey, waiter.
00:36:12Tell us.
00:36:13Who does Mr. Hawthorne give these wines to?
00:36:17Yeah, tell us.
00:36:18Who does Mr. Hawthorne give these wines to?
00:36:20So that Summer can start daydreaming.
00:36:23These wines were given to Mrs. Elizabeth by Mr. Hawthorne.
00:36:30What?
00:36:32This wine is from Lucian to Elisa?
00:36:34There must have been a mistake.
00:36:36Check it again.
00:36:37How could Mr. Hawthorne possibly send wine to Elisa?
00:36:40Yes, this is indeed the wine sent from Mrs. Lucian to Isabel.
00:36:45How could this be?
00:36:48What makes Elisa so special that Lucian would treat her like this?
00:36:52Why are you all so silent now?
00:36:55You were so talkative and confident before.
00:36:59Is it because you're embarrassed?
00:37:01Okay, Amelia.
00:37:02Yeah, like I said, I don't need to lie.
00:37:04Mr. Hawthorne would never send wine to this bitch.
00:37:08Could it be...
00:37:10Wait.
00:37:11What now, Rovinia?
00:37:12Elisa, you really are desperate for attention, aren't you?
00:37:16After being exposed about the car keys,
00:37:19you've resorted to hiring actors to put on a show for us.
00:37:23Oh my God.
00:37:24Rovinia, you really are imaginative.
00:37:26You should become a screenwriter.
00:37:27You've really got a hit on your hands.
00:37:29What?
00:37:30Are you getting agitated because I've uncovered the truth
00:37:33and here I am stating the facts?
00:37:35How is that imagination?
00:37:37Rovinia, I think you've got a point.
00:37:41After all,
00:37:42lady people are always so desperate for attention, right?
00:37:51Summer makes a valid point.
00:37:53Mr. Hawthorne and Elisa are from completely different worlds.
00:37:56How could he possibly send her wine?
00:37:58Go home and page your actors.
00:38:02Elisa, I think there's something you should know.
00:38:05If we hadn't gone to the same high school together,
00:38:08you wouldn't have any chance of sitting here with us,
00:38:11having meal, let alone getting to know Mr. Hawthorne.
00:38:16You all have gone too far.
00:38:18This is supposed to be a class reunion party
00:38:20and you're all targeting Elisa.
00:38:22What are you trying to do?
00:38:24What are we trying to do?
00:38:26She needs to know her place
00:38:28instead of deceiving us with lies again and again.
00:38:31How dare she do it and not admit it.
00:38:34Yes, Summer, as the saying goes,
00:38:36ugly people make more trouble,
00:38:38but poor people make even more trouble.
00:38:42I couldn't care less what you think of me,
00:38:45but I didn't hire actors for this.
00:38:47We are all regular employees of the hotel.
00:38:50We cannot be hired as private actors.
00:38:53You must have misunderstood.
00:39:01Misunderstood?
00:39:03Elisa, you really are hopeless.
00:39:06You found some actors and got two bottles of fake wine
00:39:10thinking you could show off at the reunion party?
00:39:21This cheap wine is only good for making noise when it shatters.
00:39:28With this order from President Hawthorne,
00:39:31I don't have to worry about my performance
00:39:33for the rest of the month.
00:39:35I think I'm going to make Ms. Vail
00:39:37a VVVIP customer from now on.
00:39:42Hello?
00:39:43Oh, good, Mr. Carlos.
00:39:45Ms. Vail is in trouble.
00:39:47What? I'm coming over.
00:39:49Damaging someone else's property?
00:39:51Lavinia, you have never been one to consider
00:39:53the consequences of doing whatever Summer tells you to do.
00:39:56How much can a fake bottle of wine be worth?
00:39:59I'll pay her, and I'll pay for the remaining wine,
00:40:02and I'll just buy them all so that she can smash them for fun.
00:40:09You're disgusting.
00:40:11We're ashamed to have you as a classmate.
00:40:13You don't deserve to be at our party.
00:40:15Security! Where's your security?
00:40:17How may I assist you?
00:40:18Well, we don't know who this woman is,
00:40:20and I don't know how she got in here,
00:40:23and I want her out of here.
00:40:25Well, this is Summer Hart,
00:40:27fiance of the president of Hawthorne's group.
00:40:31And having her here, we don't want to have any trouble.
00:40:35I see.
00:40:36And what are you doing?
00:40:40What is going on here?
00:40:42Who gave you permission to expel my esteemed guest?
00:40:48Did you just call Elisa an esteemed guest?
00:40:59Yes, I did.
00:41:01In fact, Miss Vale is one of our VIP customers.
00:41:07That can't be possible.
00:41:09Her family went bankrupt years ago.
00:41:12She probably can't even afford to pay her rent.
00:41:14Let me correct myself.
00:41:16Not only is Miss Vale our esteemed guest,
00:41:20not only is she our VVVIP customer,
00:41:24but the wine was arranged to be sent by President Hawthorne to her.
00:41:29Does my word count?
00:41:31Does it have any weight around here?
00:41:33Mr. Carlos, there must be some mistake.
00:41:36Well, the wine was personally arranged
00:41:39by President Hawthorne's personal assistant, Ronan.
00:41:43How can there possibly be a mistake?
00:41:46Summer, how could Mr. Hawthorne be sending wine to Elisa?
00:41:51How am I supposed to know what Lucian is thinking?
00:41:54You said that you would pay me back tenfold.
00:41:57Forget the tenfold. Just pay me the original price.
00:42:02Is Lucian going to be angry with me for this?
00:42:05Whatever. Let's just enjoy this moment.
00:42:07What's going on? President Hawthorne really sent wine to Elisa?
00:42:11I have no idea.
00:42:13Maybe Summer is just lying
00:42:15and she's being pretentious about Mr. Hawthorne.
00:42:18So Summer, what's the best way for you to pay me back for this?
00:42:24You should have seen the look on Summer's face
00:42:27when she tried to swipe her card. It was hilarious.
00:42:30Oh my gosh, today we finally showed her who's boss.
00:42:34I know, but I feel like everyone knows that Summer is Lucian's dream girl.
00:42:38When he finds out I, the placeholder wife, am totally getting the...
00:42:42Legally, you are Mr. Hawthorne's wife.
00:42:45You are literally the president's wife.
00:42:47You have the high ground. What are you so afraid of?
00:42:50Come on, let's go drink and celebrate.
00:42:52You actually want to drink right now?
00:42:54Yes.
00:42:55No.
00:42:56Yes.
00:42:57No.
00:42:58You're not getting a piece of my heart.
00:43:00LUCIAN
00:43:05Amelia, be honest with me, okay?
00:43:08What is it?
00:43:09I don't... I don't understand why Lucian wanted to marry me.
00:43:13I don't know, it's just...
00:43:14I'm starting to feel like maybe he...
00:43:17Like...
00:43:19Is he actually someone you...
00:43:20Hey Lisa, I have something I have to attend to,
00:43:23so I'm going to be leaving now.
00:43:25What? Wait, no.
00:43:28Are you gossiping about me behind my back while you're drunk?
00:43:34Are you real?
00:43:36Or am I dreaming?
00:43:38Well, no, you're not dreaming.
00:43:39I'm actually here to take you home.
00:43:40Big gossip.
00:43:42No.
00:43:43I don't want to go home.
00:43:44I want to drink more.
00:43:46Lisa, you've had too much.
00:43:48You're going to have a headache tomorrow.
00:43:50Who knew Mr. Hawthorne was so gentle and thoughtful?
00:43:53Come on.
00:43:54I can't walk.
00:43:56So I could just live here.
00:43:59Okay.
00:44:00I will carry you back then.
00:44:04Come on.
00:44:06Come on, Harry.
00:44:07Three, two, one.
00:44:09Okay, here we go.
00:44:16Mr. Hawthorne, good evening.
00:44:18Here I am, working overtime in the middle of the night,
00:44:21driving at this speed.
00:44:24Lucian, why did you marry me?
00:44:29Lucian, why did you marry me?
00:44:31Actually, I've been in love with you for ten years,
00:44:34ever since I first saw you.
00:44:38Back then, the internal struggles in the Hawthorne family were severe,
00:44:42and my father was also.
00:44:46Lucian, let your father rest in peace.
00:44:52You're all I've got now.
00:44:58Anyway, I didn't dare to show you even a sliver of my feelings for you.
00:45:03But the hatred between our parents made me hide my feelings for you.
00:45:06Could you give me a chance?
00:45:10Yeah.
00:45:12Well, I'll tell you this another time.
00:45:15I love you.
00:45:20Elisa always goes against me, making me embarrassed.
00:45:23She's the worst!
00:45:25I have an idea that doesn't require us to get involved
00:45:28and can make Elisa leave Mr. Hawthorne.
00:45:31Oh?
00:45:32What is it?
00:45:35What is it?
00:45:36Everyone knows that Mr. Hawthorne is devoted to his mother.
00:45:39If we tell her about Elisa seducing Mr. Hawthorne, then...
00:45:45Good idea.
00:45:46Mia is the matriarch of the Hawthorne family.
00:45:50She's very clever.
00:45:52But she never got involved in the family business,
00:45:55and she's lived in seclusion abroad for years.
00:45:58Even I haven't spoken to her.
00:46:00All we need to do is send an anonymous text message to Mrs. Hawthorne.
00:46:06Then we just need to wait for Elisa to be expelled from the Hawthorne family.
00:46:16I went through great lengths to get this,
00:46:19but I never contacted her because I didn't have a reason.
00:46:23Do it for me.
00:46:24When Elisa is dealt with, you will be rewarded.
00:46:32It's my pleasure to help you, Ms. Hart.
00:46:35I just hope that when you become the president's wife,
00:46:40you won't forget me.
00:46:41Of course not.
00:46:49Matriarch Hawthorne,
00:46:51you received an anonymous message on your phone.
00:46:54What does it say?
00:46:56It says there's a vixen in our home, Mr. Hawthorne.
00:46:59She told me so much that he's been ignoring his Hawthorne group affairs.
00:47:05Book me a flight.
00:47:07I need to go back immediately.
00:47:29I'm late again today?
00:47:31Oh my god!
00:47:32I'm so sorry!
00:47:34I'm so sorry.
00:47:35You need to pay for this.
00:47:37Anyway, it was you that bumped into me and it was just a light touch.
00:47:40I have no idea how you must have fallen like that.
00:47:42Are you trying to leave me?
00:47:43Because I don't know what's the matter with your generation.
00:47:46Having no respect for the elderly.
00:47:49How did I...
00:47:51Okay, here, can I help you get up first?
00:47:55Yeah, well are you going to help me up?
00:47:59Are you okay?
00:48:00No, I am not okay.
00:48:02I am not okay.
00:48:03My leg really hurts.
00:48:04I don't think I'm going to be able to walk.
00:48:06You need to take responsibility for this.
00:48:08How can a young girl be so bad?
00:48:10She hit somebody.
00:48:11She doesn't want to take responsibility.
00:48:13She looks good.
00:48:14But she's ugly on the inside.
00:48:16No, no, no.
00:48:17The truth is...
00:48:18Never mind.
00:48:19Okay, uh...
00:48:20Ma'am, do you have your family's contact information?
00:48:23I can help you reach out to them.
00:48:25Family?
00:48:28Who are my family?
00:48:30I don't remember.
00:48:34You don't remember who your family is?
00:48:43Uh...
00:48:44I don't remember anything.
00:48:45What do I do?
00:48:46You don't remember where you live?
00:48:48I don't remember anything.
00:48:49Okay.
00:48:50What do I do?
00:48:51I...
00:48:52How about I take you to the hospital and then to a police station?
00:48:57No, no, no, no, no.
00:48:58I'm not going to a hospital or a police station.
00:49:00I don't trust anybody.
00:49:02Oh, no.
00:49:03I'm going to be late.
00:49:04But there's the weekly department meeting today.
00:49:06I can't take leave.
00:49:09Okay, uh...
00:49:10Ma'am, since you're not going anywhere,
00:49:12how about I take you to my company office?
00:49:15And then after work, I'll help you find your family.
00:49:18Fine.
00:49:19I guess you need to take responsibility for this.
00:49:22You cannot leave my side.
00:49:24Okay.
00:49:25Okay.
00:49:26Ow, ow, ow, ow.
00:49:28What?
00:49:29My mom's returned home?
00:49:30Yes, Mr. Hawthorne.
00:49:31According to Matriarch Robinson's assistant,
00:49:33Matriarch Robinson received an anonymous text message about you
00:49:36and rushed back into the country.
00:49:37What was the text?
00:49:38It said,
00:49:39Mr. Hawthorne, you've been enchanted by seductress.
00:49:42She's always had a temper.
00:49:43Okay.
00:49:44I'm going to attend the business meeting personally.
00:49:46Are you afraid that Matriarch Robinson will suddenly come to our company?
00:49:49I mean, yeah, unless there's some unexpected twist.
00:49:52She'll probably be there.
00:49:53All right, Mr. Hawthorne.
00:49:54I'll arrange it right away.
00:49:57Mom, please don't scare off the wife I finally got.
00:50:03How did the matter about Matriarch Robinson go?
00:50:06Where's the sh-
00:50:10Heard, Ms. Hart.
00:50:11It's said that Matriarch Robinson was furious upon hearing the news
00:50:15and returned home immediately.
00:50:17Really?
00:50:19Then Elisa will be out of your soup.
00:50:22Yes.
00:50:23Congratulations in advance, Ms. Hart.
00:50:26Let's go.
00:50:27There's a weekly meeting of the business department
00:50:29and Lucia will be there personally.
00:50:31We can't afford to make a mistake.
00:50:34Um, Amelia's gone on a work trip
00:50:36so you can sit in her spot while she's gone.
00:50:42If you get bored, you can just play on my phone.
00:50:45Okay.
00:50:46And we have to keep our voices down because people are working.
00:50:48Okay.
00:50:49I just want to know if I can pay you this-
00:50:50Everyone.
00:50:52The weekly meeting is about to begin.
00:50:54Elisa.
00:50:55Why did you bring a cleaner to work?
00:50:57Elisa really treats the company as her home.
00:51:00Bringing in anyone she likes.
00:51:02Seriously, so filthy.
00:51:04It's disgusting just looking at them.
00:51:10Elisa.
00:51:11Our entire department is filled up with work and you-
00:51:15If we have to delay our work,
00:51:17are you going to take responsibility for that?
00:51:19Ms. Hart.
00:51:20This woman might have some trouble with her memory
00:51:22so I'm only bringing her here temporarily.
00:51:24I was going to help her find her family after work
00:51:26and if she could just sit here for the time being,
00:51:28I promise that she won't disturb anybody.
00:51:31You mean you brought this old hag in off the street
00:51:34and she's also sick?
00:51:36I think you're crazy.
00:51:38Picking up an old hag like this,
00:51:40wreaking of poverty,
00:51:41stinking up the whole office.
00:51:43What if you find her in a sewer?
00:51:45What if this old hag isn't just mentally ill
00:51:48but also could infect us all with some disease?
00:51:51Yeah, Ms. Hart.
00:51:52I really think we should call a cleaner later
00:51:54to disinfect everywhere this lady's been.
00:51:56How could all of you be so cruel?
00:51:58Don't you all have families too?
00:52:01What if one of them had lost their memory
00:52:03and needed your help?
00:52:04This girl, she's interesting.
00:52:06I'm not the one who's sick.
00:52:08You're sick!
00:52:11Disgusting.
00:52:12Elisa.
00:52:13Our company has rules and regulations.
00:52:15It's not a place for you to show your kindness.
00:52:18Get this old hag out of here now.
00:52:22Get this old hag out of here now.
00:52:25Ms. Hart, there is nothing in our company policy
00:52:28that discourages helping somebody in need.
00:52:30In fact, it encourages us to do so.
00:52:32Oh, there isn't?
00:52:33Well, now there is.
00:52:37Do you have a problem?
00:52:38Ms. Hart is a senior leader in our company.
00:52:40She can represent our president
00:52:42and now she just happened to add another company rule.
00:52:45Even if she asks security to drag you out,
00:52:47there's nothing you can do.
00:52:49Understand?
00:52:51How come the employees of the business department are like this?
00:52:55Lucian will be here soon from the business department.
00:52:58Elisa, you have two minutes.
00:53:00If you don't get this old hag out of here,
00:53:02I will fire you.
00:53:04You can go beg on the street with her.
00:53:06Maybe then you'll make more money than you do now.
00:53:10Summer, you are really pushing it.
00:53:12Tell me, what else can you do besides flaunt your authority?
00:53:15I'm reporting you to Mr. Hawthorne.
00:53:18As a low-level employee,
00:53:20you have contradicted me one too many times.
00:53:22And now you dare go see Mr. Hawthorne?
00:53:25You're fired.
00:53:28Two years.
00:53:29Two years away from this company
00:53:31and I never thought that the business department
00:53:33at the Hawthorne Group would decay into this state.
00:53:39Elisa will not be fired.
00:53:41You will.
00:53:44You will.
00:53:46Matthew, did I just hear this old hag say she's going to fire us?
00:53:50She has a problem with her brain.
00:53:52That's why she's talking crazy.
00:53:54It's hard to tell a president's wife to be firing her.
00:53:58Too ridiculous.
00:54:00Besides memory loss, is she also crazy?
00:54:03Why are they saying president's wife?
00:54:07Isn't it you?
00:54:08Are all of you quite finished?
00:54:10I can't believe how shallow you are.
00:54:12You are kind and righteous.
00:54:14Do you never use Lucian's identity to gain power?
00:54:17But you?
00:54:19Okay, ma'am, it's okay.
00:54:20I'm going to help you find your family.
00:54:22Let's go.
00:54:23Why do we need to leave?
00:54:24Why don't they leave first?
00:54:25Fine, since you're determined to cling to us.
00:54:28Matthew, get this old hag out of here right now.
00:54:39You've got guts.
00:54:41Let's see who dares to kick me out of here today.
00:54:51You actually dared to hit me?
00:54:54Miss Hart?
00:54:55Elisa, this woman attacked my subordinate.
00:54:58I could have her sent to a mental hospital.
00:55:01You don't have the authority.
00:55:02Of course I do.
00:55:03She hit my subordinate.
00:55:05I can reasonably deduce she has some mental issues.
00:55:07How many times do I have to tell you?
00:55:09Yes, this woman is clearly sick,
00:55:11but naturally I'm going to find her family to let them handle it.
00:55:14If you and Matthew hadn't instigated this,
00:55:16none of this would have happened.
00:55:18This woman's actions can only be described as self-defense.
00:55:21Yeah, I think you're the one who's crazy.
00:55:23You don't respect the elderly.
00:55:24You're not qualified to be a leader.
00:55:26I don't know why your company's higher-ups even chose you.
00:55:32Oh, are you angry?
00:55:35Oh, God.
00:55:37Matthew, make these two disappear from my sight.
00:55:40Security, throw both of them out of Hawthorne group.
00:55:46With me here, I can't drive you away.
00:55:48I tell you, I am...
00:55:51Summer, what are you doing?
00:55:55Summer, what are you doing?
00:55:58Oh my God, why does Lucian come to the business department every day?
00:56:02Fine.
00:56:03I guess we'll have another showdown.
00:56:05Explain.
00:56:06Well, it's like this.
00:56:07Elisa brought this woman in off the street,
00:56:09who smells terrible,
00:56:10and insisted on having her in the office,
00:56:12which was disrupting everyone's work,
00:56:14so I'm only thinking of the company.
00:56:16Yes, Mr. Hawthorne.
00:56:17What if she has some contagious disease and infects everyone?
00:56:21I take full responsibility for this incident.
00:56:23If the company wishes, I can hand in my resignation.
00:56:29Hawthorne group is not an impersonal company.
00:56:31Elisa's done well.
00:56:34From today forward,
00:56:35you'll be promoted to team leader,
00:56:37and oversee projects as a report.
00:56:40Mr. Hawthorne, I'm...
00:56:42I'm afraid I'm not qualified for this position.
00:56:44I believe everyone here knows your abilities well.
00:56:49As for you,
00:56:50you can go to HR, and they'll handle your resignation.
00:56:55He is the backbone of the business department.
00:56:57If you fire him, there'll be no elites left.
00:57:00Summer, you've managed the business department into a mess.
00:57:02You're responsible for that.
00:57:04I promised to manage the business department better.
00:57:07This won't happen again.
00:57:09Matthew!
00:57:10Why have you not apologized to this madame and miss Vail yet?
00:57:16Matthew!
00:57:17Why have you not apologized to this madame and miss Vail yet?
00:57:23I'm sorry.
00:57:24Please forgive me.
00:57:26Why are you apologizing first?
00:57:28Because this one almost just put me into a mental hospital.
00:57:31You old hag.
00:57:32How dare you ask me to apologize?
00:57:35Miss Hart,
00:57:37apologize.
00:57:40Sorry.
00:57:41I'm sorry I can't hear you.
00:57:48I was wrong.
00:57:49I'm sorry.
00:57:51And you guys?
00:57:55I'm sorry.
00:57:56Sorry.
00:57:57Sorry.
00:58:00Have I been misunderstanding him all this time?
00:58:02Could it be?
00:58:03Well, it's the end of that matter.
00:58:05I'll take care of this lady,
00:58:08and help her find her family.
00:58:13Listen, why did you call me over?
00:58:15What if Elisa finds out?
00:58:17Mom, what exactly are you trying to do?
00:58:19I want to test my daughter-in-law.
00:58:22Haven't you tested her enough today?
00:58:24She's great.
00:58:25You saw that.
00:58:30Oh, Lucian.
00:58:33You're quite loyal, aren't you?
00:58:36It's enough.
00:58:39Fine.
00:58:41Look, Elisa is a very good girl,
00:58:44but it seems she doesn't even know that you like her.
00:58:48Nor does anyone else know that she's your wife.
00:58:51Why are you keeping this marriage so secretive?
00:58:55I don't know how to tell her.
00:58:56I'm afraid that if we make our relationship public,
00:58:59pressure will be too much for her.
00:59:01Lucian, when did you become such a coward?
00:59:05Look, if you like her, just confess boldly.
00:59:09You don't want to wait until Elisa falls for some other guy
00:59:12before you feel regret, do you?
00:59:16Regret what?
00:59:19Nothing.
00:59:20Please, come sit.
00:59:25Elisa,
00:59:27I'm sorry I deceptive earlier.
00:59:30I...
00:59:32I'm actually Lucian's mother.
00:59:34What?
00:59:37Please, let me explain.
00:59:40A few days ago, I got an anonymous text
00:59:43saying that some woman was trying to seduce Lucian
00:59:47and I got afraid that he might get tricked.
00:59:51Anyway, Elisa, can you please forgive me?
00:59:56Yes, Mrs. Hoffman, I understand.
00:59:59You're just looking out for your son.
01:00:01But I am concerned that the person who sent that text
01:00:03must have had bad intentions.
01:00:05I have an idea of your subject. Go ahead.
01:00:07Good.
01:00:09And Elisa, I heard that Lucian plans on taking you
01:00:12to a very fancy dinner tonight.
01:00:14Okay.
01:00:16There's actually something I want to talk to you about.
01:00:26Lucian, why aren't you eating?
01:00:29Yeah, of course.
01:00:35Elisa, what do you want to ask me?
01:00:37If you want a divorce, it's not going to happen.
01:00:40Why would you think I want a divorce?
01:00:47Okay, I've been meaning to ask you,
01:00:51You've liked Summer for ten years.
01:00:54I mean, why would you marry me?
01:00:56Why protect me at every turn?
01:00:59Hold on.
01:01:01You think I've liked Summer for ten years?
01:01:03Judging by his reaction, he must have been caught off guard.
01:01:07Elisa, you're being too presumptuous.
01:01:10Seriously, why would I have liked her for ten years?
01:01:12Elisa, I've liked you for ten years.
01:01:16For ten years.
01:01:17Elisa, I've liked you for ten years.
01:01:22What?
01:01:24How could that possibly be true?
01:01:25First day we met, I fell for you.
01:01:28But because of the conflict between our parents,
01:01:32I chose to give up.
01:01:36I wanted to show you that I cared for you, but I couldn't.
01:01:39I was afraid that it would put you in danger.
01:01:42I'm really sorry, Elisa.
01:01:44All these years, I've suppressed my feelings for you.
01:01:49I fought tooth and nail to be the head of the Hawthorne family.
01:01:54And now it's taken me a decade to fully stand by you like this.
01:01:59So why now?
01:02:03And now it's taken me a decade to fully stand by you like this.
01:02:08So why now?
01:02:09I was afraid if I told you that you didn't like me,
01:02:12we wouldn't even be colleagues anymore.
01:02:15So what's wrong?
01:02:17So when you sat next to me all those years ago,
01:02:19it wasn't because you didn't like your food?
01:02:24Hey, I don't really like this.
01:02:35Yeah, I'm really sorry I couldn't show you my feelings in the proper way.
01:02:43But then, why did you write Summer that love letter back then?
01:02:47What love letter?
01:02:49I only remember delivering a party invitation to her from my parents.
01:02:54Well, why are all your passwords Summer's birthday?
01:02:57You mean 0903?
01:03:00What does that have to do with Summer? I don't even know her birthday.
01:03:03So then what's 0903 to you?
01:03:05Elisa, 0903, September 3rd, is the day we first met.
01:03:11So it was all just a misunderstanding?
01:03:16So it was all just a misunderstanding?
01:03:19Listen, I love you.
01:03:22I know I tricked you into marrying me.
01:03:26The feelings for you are absolutely true.
01:03:29So, can you try to accept it?
01:03:33I know that our marriage started as a contract, but it feels real to me now.
01:03:40I love you.
01:03:42I want to be with you.
01:03:44I want to be with you now, and I want to be with you when we're older.
01:03:48I love you.
01:03:58You're finally mine.
01:04:02Yours.
01:04:11Hey.
01:04:13From now on, we're true husband and wife.
01:04:16We don't have to keep our relationship secret in front of our colleagues anymore.
01:04:19Okay.
01:04:24Lucian, I...
01:04:26Elise, you...
01:04:28Summer, I'd like you to meet my wife.
01:04:30What?
01:04:32Elisa and I have actually been married for a long time.
01:04:34So you don't have to send those pervasive text messages to my mom anymore.
01:04:37We all like Elisa.
01:04:40So no matter how much you try to sow discord between us, it's never going to work.
01:04:44What text messages? I...
01:04:46I have the evidence, Summer.
01:04:50Now, considering the relationship between our families,
01:04:53I'm going to ask you to go ahead and submit your resignation from your team.
01:04:57As for everyone else, you all get off an hour early today.
01:05:02And you're invited to dinner with my wife.
01:05:06Yay!
01:05:09Yay!
