Short filmTranscript
00:00:00I, Alisa, a nobody in the workplace, single since birth for 23 years, never even held
00:00:10a man's hand, but last night I accidentally slept with my boss.
00:00:15He's a CEO, he's the kind of guy that you read about in novels, and he already has a
00:00:19woman in his heart.
00:00:21Hey, it's been a really long night, and I think it should be a longer night.
00:00:31You should come over.
00:00:33I'll see you soon.
00:00:39What do you mean by question mark?
00:00:41Because it used to be fun.
00:00:43I have good wine.
00:00:45I'm in room 1501.
00:00:47I'll see you soon.
00:00:51I'm coming.
00:01:03This way, this way.
00:01:06What are you doing?
00:01:20You're acting like a magnet.
00:01:23You pull me in.
00:01:33Alisa?
00:01:34Hey, Mom.
00:01:35Please come home as soon as possible.
00:01:38I just received an order from the court.
00:01:40Since we are unable to repay the huge debt your father owed, our house will be auctioned
00:01:45off to pay off the debt.
00:01:47We must move out of the house now.
00:01:49Don't worry, I'm going to be right there.
00:01:59Oh my God.
00:02:00Mom, are you okay?
00:02:03I'm fine, honey.
00:02:07I'm so sorry I couldn't save the house.
00:02:11Don't worry.
00:02:12As long as we're together, we'll get through this difficult time.
00:02:17I'm sorry.
00:02:20Is there anything else in there?
00:02:22No, this is it.
00:02:26One second, okay?
00:02:27I'll be right back.
00:02:29Hello?
00:02:30Alisa, where are you?
00:02:32Don't you remember?
00:02:33We were supposed to meet in the conference room at nine.
00:02:36Manager Smith's gone crazy looking for you.
00:02:38I'm so sorry, but something unexpected happened at home.
00:02:41And if you could please just tell management that...
00:02:45Hello?
00:02:46Hello?
00:02:48No, no, no, no.
00:02:49This sucks.
00:02:52I just lost my house and now I'm going to lose my job too?
00:02:55Where am I going to find a million dollars?
00:03:02Alisa?
00:03:04Why are you crying?
00:03:06Um...
00:03:10Mr. Hawthorne, what are you doing here?
00:03:12Hello?
00:03:13I'm actually here for...
00:03:14What?
00:03:15My marriage partner.
00:03:17Again?
00:03:18I need you to be my wife.
00:03:21Give it a thought.
00:03:24Mr. Hawthorne, I was really drunk last night,
00:03:28and I can't remember how everything happened after, but you really don't...
00:03:31Look, I know some unfortunate things have happened in your family recently.
00:03:37This card has more than enough on it to pay off all your debts
00:03:41and make sure that your house doesn't get auctioned off.
00:03:44If you agree, we can get the marriage certificate right now.
00:03:56Why do you want to help me?
00:03:58I told you, I need a wife.
00:04:01And you're the most suitable person.
00:04:09Okay.
00:04:10It's for my family.
00:04:12I have no other way.
00:04:16Mr. Hawthorne, thank you so much for helping me.
00:04:20I promise I will pay you back every cent as soon as I can.
00:04:23You don't have to pay me back.
00:04:24I'm more than happy.
00:04:27I'm gonna get back to work then.
00:04:29Ronan will actually take you back.
00:04:32And I'll give you my home address so you can move in tonight.
00:04:35Your home address?
00:04:38We're legally married.
00:04:40That's what we're living under.
00:04:42Right. This is a deal.
00:04:44I can't just take the money and get nothing in return.
00:04:47I can get myself to work.
00:04:49And I'll be back on time tonight.
00:04:58Elisa, you're finally mine.
00:05:05Oh my god!
00:05:06I'm so sorry.
00:05:07It was raining and I didn't see you there.
00:05:09No worries. It's fine.
00:05:15Can I have your name?
00:05:16I'm Elisa.
00:05:19Yo!
00:05:20Never knew Mr. Hawthorne would have such a silly smile moment.
00:05:23Alright.
00:05:28It's real?
00:05:29If your mom finds out you married a Cinderella...
00:05:32Alright, give me a sec.
00:05:33Hey, watch your mouth.
00:05:35You really married Mr. Hawthorne?
00:05:38It's just a contract marriage.
00:05:40Shh!
00:05:41I'll explain it to you later.
00:05:42Mrs. Elisa Hawthorne.
00:05:44You are the CEO's wife.
00:05:46So where is my pay raise?
00:05:48I couldn't help it.
00:05:49We've known each other since middle school.
00:05:51I don't think he actually likes me.
00:05:53Plus, everyone in the company knows who he actually wants to be with.
00:05:59Ms. Hart is back!
00:06:01Ms. Hart is back!
00:06:16Hello everyone.
00:06:18Please, help yourself to have some cake.
00:06:21Thank you, Ms. Hart.
00:06:22You are so very kind.
00:06:24It's really such an honor to work with you.
00:06:26Please, don't flatter me.
00:06:28I have to go see Mr. Hawthorne right now.
00:06:30He must want to see me right now.
00:06:32Save a slice for me, honey.
00:06:35When do you think they will make their relationship public?
00:06:38Probably soon.
00:06:39Last time I accidentally saw Mr. Hawthorne unlock his phone,
00:06:42the code is 0903, Ms. Hart's birthday.
00:06:45Isn't it a little too obvious?
00:06:47Wow, I never knew Mr. Hawthorne would be so romantic.
00:06:49He usually puts on a poker face.
00:06:51Amelia, my relationship with Mr. Hawthorne...
00:06:55Please, don't talk to me.
00:07:07Okay.
00:07:110903.
00:07:15It's Summer's birthday again.
00:07:17If they love each other so much, then...
00:07:20It's okay, whatever it is.
00:07:22Whatever it is, he's just not getting his money back.
00:07:33Why aren't you coming in?
00:07:36Why aren't you coming in?
00:07:38Mr. Hawthorne, I think that we should...
00:07:40Follow me.
00:07:53What should I do?
00:07:54Am I supposed to sleep with him tonight?
00:07:57I know that we did that before, but...
00:07:59I was drunk.
00:08:04If I turn him down, will he get angry?
00:08:06But...
00:08:08If I don't...
00:08:09Alyssa?
00:08:10You okay?
00:08:11I'm fine.
00:08:12I need to rest.
00:08:15I'm sorry.
00:08:16I'm sorry.
00:08:17I'm sorry.
00:08:18I'm sorry.
00:08:19I'm sorry.
00:08:20I'm sorry.
00:08:22I'm sorry.
00:08:33I'm...
00:08:34I'm not ready.
00:08:36I was...
00:08:37Just gonna turn off the light.
00:08:40What did you think I was gonna do?
00:08:42Oh yeah, no...
00:08:44Don't get me wrong, I just meant I wasn't ready to sleep yet.
00:08:48Alyssa...
00:08:49I don't want someone like Stan.
00:08:51I wanna be your everything.
00:08:57Matthew!
00:08:58Why did the negotiations with the sunlight crew fail?
00:09:00It's...
00:09:01Alyssa's fault.
00:09:03If she hadn't skipped work that day, we could have succeeded.
00:09:06How is it her fault?
00:09:07Please give me a reasonable explanation.
00:09:10I heard someone saw Mr. Hawthorne...
00:09:14Entering her hotel room the night before Alyssa skipped work.
00:09:18What?
00:09:19What did you say to me?
00:09:20It is absolutely true.
00:09:22Not only did she cause our failure,
00:09:25but she dared to seduce Mr. Hawthorne when you were away.
00:09:35Matthew.
00:09:36You know how important our negotiations with the sunlight crew is.
00:09:41And since it is your subordinate's fault, you know what to do.
00:09:46Alright.
00:09:47Rest assured, I know what to do.
00:09:55Last night, with Lucian Ling beside me, I couldn't sleep at all.
00:10:01Alyssa, is this how you do your job?
00:10:04Look what trouble you brought us.
00:10:06It is because of you that we lost the project with the sunlight group.
00:10:09You're fired.
00:10:11Mr. Clark, I was only in charge of the initial budget, not the negotiations.
00:10:15I don't understand how this could be my fault.
00:10:17Did you forget about your unexcused absence last time?
00:10:22Did you forget about your unexcused absence last time?
00:10:26That's because something unexpected happened at home, but I called in for a leave of absence.
00:10:29So what?
00:10:31We needed you last minute and you weren't there.
00:10:33Now that the project has failed, if you're not to blame, who else would it be?
00:10:39I was absent that day, yes.
00:10:41But I prepared the initial budget ahead of time, so there is no way that my absence would have affected the negotiations.
00:10:48Wouldn't have affected the negotiations?
00:10:50Alyssa, take a closer look.
00:10:53What 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?
00:11:05For a professional budget analyst, you've made such a sloppy mistake.
00:11:10Alyssa, do you have anything else to say for yourself?
00:11:13Looks like Alyssa is in trouble.
00:11:16Alyssa always strikes me as a professional.
00:11:18How could she make such an error?
00:11:20Keep it down.
00:11:21Can't you see?
00:11:22You're just trying to find someone to take responsibility.
00:11:28Wait, I have evidence.
00:11:31Wait, I have evidence to prove that my budget was correct.
00:11:37Evidence?
00:11:38Then why don't you show it to everyone?
00:11:40I have the dated source files on my computer that can show that I had the right numbers.
00:11:45No, no, they were right here.
00:11:47How could they be gone?
00:11:48Alyssa, are you joking?
00:11:50Where's your so-called evidence?
00:11:52Alyssa, are you suggesting that Mr. Clark and Ms. Hart are conspiring against me?
00:11:59Or conspiring against you?
00:12:01You better pack up and leave now before making a bigger fool out of yourself.
00:12:05What are you saying?
00:12:06I've seen the budget Alyssa made.
00:12:08We all checked it as a team.
00:12:13Obviously, someone tampered with it.
00:12:15Are you saying that we are framing her?
00:12:17At the very least, she deserves a good reason to be fired.
00:12:21Fine.
00:12:22If anyone else can vouch for Alyssa, I can give her a second chance.
00:12:26Anyone?
00:12:30Weren't you there when we checked that time?
00:12:32I don't remember.
00:12:37Since there's no one, Alyssa, would you like to walk yourself out?
00:12:41Or would you like me to have someone escort you out?
00:12:49This better be something important.
00:12:51Mr. Hawthorne, the business department is in uproar.
00:12:53So?
00:12:54Can't Summer handle it?
00:12:56She started it.
00:12:57Ms. Hart and Mr. Clark are trying to fire Mrs. Hawthorne.
00:13:01Let's go.
00:13:04Amelia, it's okay.
00:13:05They clearly just want someone to blame for this entire thing.
00:13:08So what should we do then?
00:13:09Allow them to push all the blame onto you?
00:13:14Ms. Hart, Mr. Clark, I'll step down from my position,
00:13:18but I will never admit to mistakes that I didn't make.
00:13:21I will get down to the bottom of this.
00:13:23You're shameless.
00:13:25The evidence is right here.
00:13:26Where do you get the nerve to deny it?
00:13:28Besides the project book, there's also surveillance footage
00:13:31and there are computer backend logs.
00:13:33All of these will prove that my budget was correct,
00:13:35and I will investigate this until the end.
00:13:39There is no need for an investigation.
00:13:42You have already been fired.
00:13:45Since you refuse to leave,
00:13:48security,
00:13:49drag her out.
00:13:57Elisa, you dare to seduce the man I like when I'm not around?
00:14:01You will never set foot in Hawthorne Group ever again.
00:14:08Summer?
00:14:10What are you doing?
00:14:14Why is he here?
00:14:16Could it be he's here to support Summer?
00:14:18Usha, what brings you here?
00:14:21Let her go.
00:14:23What's going on with these two?
00:14:25Am I fired or not?
00:14:27Could it be I'm just a pawn in their game?
00:14:30Care to explain what's going on?
00:14:31Well, Elisa made a big mistake at work, so I fired her.
00:14:35But she refused to leave, disrupting everyone at work.
00:14:39So Matthew called security to escort her out.
00:14:42Fired for what?
00:14:43Here's the thing, Mr. Hawthorne.
00:14:45The negotiations with the Sunlight Group failed due to Elisa's mistake.
00:14:49We had to let her go according to company regulations.
00:14:51You set me up with some half-baked plan.
00:14:54Tried to fire me and then called security.
00:14:56Is that within the lines of regulation?
00:14:58Elisa, how dare you question company regulations in front of Mr. Hawthorne?
00:15:03Usha, see? She won't admit her mistakes and she even questions you in public.
00:15:10Oh god, now I'm really fired.
00:15:14Elisa actually talked back to Mr. Hawthorne.
00:15:17She has to be fired now.
00:15:22I'm actually pitying her.
00:15:23Pitying her? No matter what.
00:15:24Pitying her? You're an employee too. Mind your own business.
00:15:30Elisa, you sure are bald, aren't you?
00:15:32Elisa, don't you know what Mr. Hawthorne means? Hurry up and leave.
00:15:37Of course Lucian is on Summer's side.
00:15:39I'm just his wife out of nowhere.
00:15:43Surely I'm no match for his lover.
00:15:51Hold on.
00:15:54Did I tell you to leave?
00:15:58You're not angry?
00:15:59Why would I be angry?
00:16:01The company needs to find out who's responsible for Sunrise Group Project first.
00:16:05Ronan, take charge of that.
00:16:06Yes, Mr. Hawthorne.
00:16:07So what you're saying is I'm not fired. At least for now.
00:16:14Lucian, Elisa not only made mistakes on this project, but she was absent from work without permission.
00:16:19And she defied you in public.
00:16:20Summer, I'll handle company policy, okay?
00:16:24But we never, ever fire an employee for no reason.
00:16:29I agree with Lucian.
00:16:32Matthew, I told you to wait until the investigation was done, but you insisted that the results were clear.
00:16:37Apologize to Mr. Hawthorne right now.
00:16:40Yes, Ms. Hart.
00:16:42Is Lucian helping me?
00:16:44But as a CEO, he needs to do things fairly in front of his employees.
00:16:48This proves nothing.
00:16:50Elisa, may I have a few words with you?
00:16:54Elisa, you are damn lucky this time.
00:16:58But you won't be for the next time.
00:17:10Mr. Hawthorne, if this is about the project, then I'm so sorry that you were bothered.
00:17:14Do you think that's why I brought you here?
00:17:18Do you think that's why I brought you here?
00:17:21Next time something like that happens, come see me.
00:17:23Don't let me handle it.
00:17:26You're so busy. I didn't want to bother you.
00:17:30We're married.
00:17:33You can do whatever you want.
00:17:36We're at the office. Don't fool around.
00:17:38Fool around?
00:17:40Well, that's the proper thing since we're married.
00:17:45Well, by that I guess you mean I should act like your wife all the time?
00:17:50Even while we're at work?
00:17:52That's not necessarily what I mean.
00:17:56Well, if that's all, Mr. Hawthorne, I guess I'll be going back to work.
00:18:07Elisa.
00:18:08Remember my words. Stay away from that girl.
00:18:13Elisa, when you were in Mr. Hawthorne's office...
00:18:16Amelia!
00:18:18I can't really understand a thing over here. Can you help me, please?
00:18:27Miss Hart, may I help you?
00:18:30You are still under investigation.
00:18:32Now isn't the current time for you to be working on company projects.
00:18:36But I was just looking over the project budget for the next thing.
00:18:39Your current mission is to go downstairs and fetch me a cup of coffee.
00:18:42Can't you see the trash is full? Clean it.
00:18:46Miss Hart.
00:18:47I'm an analyst. I'm not an intern.
00:18:50What? Are you defying your superior?
00:18:53Someone is really ignorant. She hasn't been clarified yet.
00:18:56Now she's defying her superior. Does she think she owns the company?
00:19:00Right? Miss Hart is not just the daughter of a noble family.
00:19:04She also has a high profile.
00:19:06She's not just the daughter of a noble family.
00:19:08She also has an unusual relationship with our president.
00:19:11It would be in your best interest to help Miss Hart with the trifle.
00:19:15Stop being ungrateful.
00:19:17Elisa, I can have you fired for defying your superior.
00:19:21So you better choose wisely.
00:19:24You're right. I like my job.
00:19:26And I'm going to become an excellent executive in my dream company.
00:19:30Fine.
00:19:33I'll do it.
00:19:37Better to bend than break, huh?
00:19:40It doesn't matter. Let's see how long you can keep tolerating.
00:19:46Miss Hart, your coffee.
00:19:48Hand it to me.
00:19:58Oh my god, this coffee is so hot. It almost burned me alive.
00:20:02Oh my god, I'm so sorry.
00:20:04Don't you know I only drink iced Americano?
00:20:06Who hired you anyway?
00:20:08I'm so sorry. I will go buy you one right now.
00:20:10Can't you see there's coffee on the floor?
00:20:12Clean it up. Now.
00:20:20Who told you you could mop the floor with that?
00:20:22If you damage the floors, can you afford to pay for them?
00:20:25How exactly would you like me to mop the floor, Miss Hart?
00:20:28With a cloth on your hands and feet.
00:20:32With a cloth on your hands and knees.
00:20:35Inch by inch.
00:20:37Sorry, I think you're going a little too far.
00:20:40What? Can't handle it? You could always quit.
00:20:49Well, by that I guess you mean I should act like your wife all the time?
00:20:54Even while we're at work?
00:20:57Mr. Hawthorne, there's an upcoming online meeting with an overseas company.
00:21:02Uh-huh.
00:21:03Hey, is the business department next to the meeting room?
00:21:06Yes, Mr. Hawthorne.
00:21:08I had to visit first.
00:21:10He was just departing, Mrs. Hawthorne, and he's already so eager to see her.
00:21:13He's completely in love with her.
00:21:18Miss Hart, would you please lift your foot?
00:21:21Ah!
00:21:23Oh, I'm sorry. I didn't do it on purpose.
00:21:27Elise, when you were seducing Lucian when I was away, have you ever thought of today?
00:21:34I didn't seduce him.
00:21:36You didn't? Do you really think I wouldn't know because I was away?
00:21:40You have to seduce Lucian, then you must be prepared for my revenge.
00:21:45Silver, what the hell are you doing?
00:21:47Silver, what the hell are you doing?
00:21:49Lucian, Elise is still under investigation, right?
00:21:53She's not suitable for working on company projects, so I had her doing simpler tasks like fetching me coffee.
00:21:59But she spilled the coffee on purpose.
00:22:01That isn't true.
00:22:02It doesn't matter anyway. I don't blame her for it.
00:22:04But she insisted on wiping it up.
00:22:06I stepped on her by accident.
00:22:08I was about to apologize to her.
00:22:10Is that so?
00:22:12Elise, is that actually what happened?
00:22:14Elise, is that actually what happened?
00:22:16Lucian is in love with Silver.
00:22:18Even if I told the truth, would he believe me?
00:22:22Yes, it's the truth.
00:22:24Come with me to my office.
00:22:28Come.
00:22:30Why on earth did Lucian call Elisa to his office again?
00:22:34He must find out.
00:22:41Have a seat.
00:22:44Your hands hurt.
00:22:46You need an advantage.
00:22:47It's really fine.
00:22:49I can just go home and...
00:22:50No, no, I got it all right.
00:22:52Have a seat.
00:22:57Let's see.
00:22:59You know, Summer is competent, but she can be bossy and overbearing.
00:23:04I can transfer you two to the department.
00:23:06If you can't bear her, maybe mine, so we can spend more time together.
00:23:11No, no, I'm fine in the business department.
00:23:14Elisa, you're my wife.
00:23:16I don't want you to be bullied anymore.
00:23:18Stop pretending like you don't know she only does that because she's in love with you.
00:23:22Okay, last step.
00:23:27Okay, just don't let this hand touch water for a little bit.
00:23:29Thank you, Mr. Hawthorne.
00:23:33It's just the two of us.
00:23:35You can call me by my name.
00:23:37When we're at work, I thought I shouldn't.
00:23:39Yeah, why shouldn't you?
00:23:40Lucian, why did you marry me?
00:23:42And why do you keep defending me?
00:23:45Do you really not know why?
00:23:47We've known each other since high school, but he's always kind of ignored me.
00:23:51Hasn't he always had a thing for Summer?
00:23:54Or could it be that everyone has been wrong all along?
00:24:03Bloody Elisa.
00:24:05You sure are good at playing naive.
00:24:08I must find a way to teach you a lesson.
00:24:12A reunion party?
00:24:14The gods are favoring me.
00:24:17Elisa, I must teach you a lesson this time.
00:24:25Alright, it's ready.
00:24:28How many slices do you want?
00:24:30Mom, what's wrong?
00:24:32Elisa, isn't our house supposed to be auctioned off by the court to pay off our debts?
00:24:39Why hasn't this happened yet?
00:24:41Um...
00:24:44Well, I borrowed some money from a friend to help pay off the debts.
00:24:49What friend could afford to lend you so much money at once?
00:24:55Since we went bankrupt, all our old friends have disappeared.
00:25:00Well, Mom, you don't have to worry about it.
00:25:04It's okay. We'll fix it up.
00:25:10Hey.
00:25:11Elisa, what took you so long?
00:25:12What's up?
00:25:13There's a school reunion party this weekend.
00:25:15They notified us in the group, but I figured you haven't read it yet since you didn't respond,
00:25:20so I'm just giving you a heads up.
00:25:22What? It's been ages.
00:25:24Why is there a high school reunion party out of nowhere?
00:25:27Here's the monthly report from the business department.
00:25:30Just leave it over there.
00:25:38How about we grab a drink tonight? I know a good place.
00:25:42I actually have plans tonight.
00:25:44If you don't have anything else, you can leave.
00:25:46Lucian, it's been so long...
00:25:48Summer, I said I'm busy.
00:25:50Please leave.
00:25:53Hold on. Will you be at the high school reunion?
00:25:55Summer, how many ways do I have to say this? I'm busy. Leave.
00:25:59Lucian, you have to be so gentle with me.
00:26:02But ever since Elisa came, you've become colder and colder.
00:26:07Elisa, thank the mighty autism.
00:26:14I wonder if Lucian received the invitation to the reunion.
00:26:18Is he going?
00:26:20Something on your mind?
00:26:22It's not a big deal, but there's a high school reunion party later.
00:26:25Are you going?
00:26:27Are you going?
00:26:29I don't know.
00:26:31I know you made a good point, but we don't really see each other that often.
00:26:34I thought it'd be nice to get together.
00:26:36Oh, you know what?
00:26:38I actually have a meeting.
00:26:40I think I'll pass.
00:26:42Okay. Yeah, that's fair.
00:26:44I'll send you something though, since I can't be there.
00:26:46You really don't have to do that.
00:26:48You really don't have to do that.
00:26:50And I know it's far, so...
00:26:52Take this.
00:26:54Lucian, it's...
00:26:56That's way too expensive.
00:26:58I'm just gonna take the subway.
00:27:00Elisa, I'm capable of offering you a better life.
00:27:03Why would you take the subway?
00:27:05Consider this a gift.
00:27:07Lucian is acting like he actually likes me.
00:27:11What game is he playing?
00:27:13Come on. Take it.
00:27:16You're just giving this to me?
00:27:19Well, I'm your husband.
00:27:21Legally speaking, it's mine is yours.
00:27:24Well, thank you then.
00:27:31This is a customized version.
00:27:33It probably costs millions.
00:27:35Jesus, Elisa!
00:27:36If it weren't for you, I'd never get to be in such a luxurious car.
00:27:39Seems like Mr. Hawthorne really is madly in love with you.
00:27:42You know, I'm still at the point where I'm wondering if he even likes me.
00:27:46He does treat me well, though.
00:27:48You know, all of his passwords are still Summer's birthday.
00:27:51I don't know.
00:27:53I'm probably just overthinking.
00:27:55Maybe it's a misunderstanding or a coincidence.
00:28:00I feel like Mr. Hawthorne is quite cold to Summer.
00:28:03I don't think he's into her.
00:28:04No, that's just because he's trying to keep the down-low at work.
00:28:08Well, even if he were trying to keep it that way...
00:28:11Do you know how that saying goes?
00:28:13We can try to hide our feelings, but we forget that our eyes can speak.
00:28:18The way he looks at Summer, it doesn't feel right.
00:28:21Do you know what I mean?
00:28:22I have absolutely no idea what you mean, because you sound crazy.
00:28:25You...
00:28:26I'm done.
00:28:27You're so mean.
00:28:28I can't.
00:28:29Well, we're late.
00:28:30We have to go.
00:28:31Okay.
00:28:38Hello, everyone.
00:28:39Long time no see.
00:28:41So sorry we're late.
00:28:42So, it's Elisa.
00:28:44What is it?
00:28:45The poor student back then is doing A's now?
00:28:51Did you make us wait on purpose?
00:28:55Did you plan to arrive late deliberately to attract our attention?
00:28:59Elisa, you were still using the same lame tricks as back then, weren't you?
00:29:04Who wants to pay attention to her?
00:29:07After all this year, she still speaks of poverty.
00:29:11Hey, don't say such a word.
00:29:14What if she's doing well and busy with work?
00:29:17Maybe she didn't mean to be late.
00:29:19Her?
00:29:20She's probably a low-level employee.
00:29:22How well could she be doing?
00:29:23What do you mean by that?
00:29:25Elisa and I were just...
00:29:29Oh, Summer's here.
00:29:31Although it's been years since we graduated, she's only been more gorgeous.
00:29:34Summer is both the daughter of the noble family and Mr. Hopper's childhood friend.
00:29:40I bet Summer is more than jealous now.
00:29:43Summer, come on. Sit next to me.
00:29:45I've reserved the mat.
00:29:51Sorry I'm late. Traffic was terrible.
00:29:54Never mind. It's our honor to have you.
00:29:56Summer, did you buy a new sports car?
00:30:00Not really. I just picked this one out of the garage because I was in a hurry.
00:30:04I'm actually tired of driving it. I haven't used it in...
00:30:08A sports car? That's something I can never afford.
00:30:11It's not that much. It's only a few hundred thousand.
00:30:15Wow. Summer sure is rich.
00:30:18Such an expensive car, but it's not a nothing to her.
00:30:22Naturally, you don't know who Summer is.
00:30:25Such a luxury car, a nothing, but a toy to her.
00:30:29She can have as many as she wants.
00:30:31Which is not much.
00:30:33And you, Sam? What car did you drive here?
00:30:39She? How could a poor girl like her afford a car?
00:30:42She must be taking the subway.
00:30:44Why does she race? That's the reason.
00:30:47Elisa, the subway will soon stop running.
00:30:50Do you want me to give you a ride?
00:30:52Oh, Summer. You're still so kind-hearted.
00:30:55But how could somebody as low as her be riding in your luxury car?
00:31:01Be careful not to get her power disentangled over you. It probably won't come off.
00:31:05What nonsense are you talking about?
00:31:07Elisa didn't take the subway, and it wouldn't matter if she did.
00:31:11She drove here.
00:31:12In a fancy, new limited edition convertible.
00:31:16And something more expensive than you can imagine.
00:31:19Oh my god, what a big mouth.
00:31:22What the hell? It really is a convertible.
00:31:25Impossible. She can never afford that.
00:31:28Elisa, did you rent a car just to show off at the reunion?
00:31:32It's not rented.
00:31:34Not rented? Who are you trying to fool?
00:31:37You can't afford even the cheapest one of such cars, even if you sell yourself.
00:31:41Summer, is Hawthorne Group really that good?
00:31:45Even a little employee can afford such a fancy convertible?
00:31:49Hardly. Although Hawthorne Group does have good benefits, it's not to that extent.
00:31:55With her salary, she could probably never afford it, even if she worked herself to death.
00:32:01Elisa, we're all classmates here. You don't have to pretend to be rich.
00:32:06It probably costs half your salary to rent that car.
00:32:09It's best not to be so vain.
00:32:11To the point of it, it's like the Cinderella. It will revert to its true form after midnight.
00:32:15Elisa, don't you find yourself ridiculous?
00:32:18Of course, I never disguise my feelings.
00:32:21I'm sorry to disappoint you, but it's not rented. It's a gift from my husband.
00:32:28Mr. Hawthorne, Mr. Walker's arrived. The meeting can start any time.
00:32:32Alright.
00:32:33Oh hey, by the way, my wife is having a class reunion tomorrow.
00:32:36Invite Salome over for some fine wine.
00:32:38I'd rather have some fun.
00:32:39Yes Mr. Hawthorne.
00:32:41I'm sorry to disappoint you, but it's not rented. It's a gift from my husband.
00:32:46Elisa, what's the point of lying?
00:32:49First you rent a car to show off at the reunion,
00:32:52and now you're making up a story about a wealthy husband?
00:32:57Are you living in a novel?
00:32:59Summer, aren't you colleagues with Elisa?
00:33:01You should know if she's married or not, right?
00:33:05It's not my business.
00:33:07Even though I'm her superior, I try not to pry.
00:33:11Although I don't think so.
00:33:13If she really had a rich husband, why would she work for so little in salary?
00:33:19So, Elisa is lying again?
00:33:22She is so shameless.
00:33:24Amelia, I think you should stay away from Elisa.
00:33:29She got a bad influence on you.
00:33:34And what do you know?
00:33:36Elisa's husband.
00:33:38Okay, okay, you guys keep partying.
00:33:40Amelia, let's go.
00:33:47Excuse me, these are the wines set by Mr. Hawthorne.
00:33:53Oh, 1982 Lafite?
00:33:57But we didn't order these wines.
00:33:59I'll send you something though, 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're gonna get married soon.
00:34:28Of course, Summer is future president's wife.
00:34:32Unlike someone.
00:34:34Oh, Alyssa, you see?
00:34:37You can never shake my bond with Aleutian.
00:34:40Alright everyone, since Aleutian sent over these wines, let's enjoy them together.
00:34:45But Summer, this is 1982 Lafite.
00:34:48I think some people here are not worthy of drinking such fine wine.
00:34:54They say cast your pearls before swine.
00:34:56Even if you let Alyssa drink it, she wouldn't know how good Lafite is.
00:35:00That's true. To pay it to her would be a waste.
00:35:03You're all wrong. This wine is for me.
00:35:08This wine is for me.
00:35:10Did I hear that right? You said that this wine was given to you by Mr. Hawthorne?
00:35:15It's hilarious. Do you think you're Mrs. Hawthorne?
00:35:18Mrs. Hawthorne, it's Summer.
00:35:21Are you daydreaming, Alyssa?
00:35:23Do you think you're some Cinderella who married a president?
00:35:27Alyssa, are you jealous of me?
00:35:30Not only jealous of my family background and my job,
00:35:33now you're jealous of my relationship with Aleutian and want to take the wines that were given to me.
00:35:38Don't you know that even if you try your hardest,
00:35:41what's not meant for you will never, never be yours?
00:35:46Oh, Summer, don't ruin your mood over such a rat in the gutter.
00:35:50She's just a clown.
00:35:51How can you be so confident that the wine is for Summer?
00:35:55When Summer and Mr. Hawthorne started dating, Alyssa was somewhere picking up the trash.
00:36:01All you ever do is talk. Why the hell would I lie about something like this?
00:36:05Who knows? After all, you don't understand how the poor thinks.
00:36:08Hey, waiter, tell us. Who does Mr. Hawthorne give these wines to?
00:36:14Yeah, tell us. Who does Mr. Hawthorne give these wines to?
00:36:18To let someone start daydreaming.
00:36:21These wines were given to Mrs. Ellesvale by Mr. Hawthorne.
00:36:29What? This wine is from Aleutian to Alyssa?
00:36:32There must have been a mistake. Check it again.
00:36:35How could Mr. Hawthorne possibly send wine to Alyssa?
00:36:38Yes, this is indeed the wine that was sent from Alyssa to Ellesvale.
00:36:44How could this be?
00:36:46What makes Alyssa so special that Aleutian would treat her like this?
00:36:51Why are you all so silent now?
00:36:53You were so talkative and confident before.
00:36:57Is it because you're embarrassed?
00:36:59Quit kicking, Amelia.
00:37:00Yeah, like I said, I don't need to learn.
00:37:02Mr. Hawthorne would never send wine to this bitch.
00:37:06Could it be...
00:37:07Wait.
00:37:08What now, womania?
00:37:10Alyssa, you really are desperate for attention, aren't you?
00:37:14After being exposed about the car keys, you've resorted to hiring...
00:37:19Hiring actors to put on a show for us!
00:37:21Oh my god, womania, you really are imaginative.
00:37:24You should become a screenwriter. You've really got it in your hands.
00:37:27What? Are you getting agitated because I've uncovered the truth
00:37:31and here I am stating the facts?
00:37:33How is that imagination?
00:37:36Womania, I think you've got a point.
00:37:39After all, lowly people are always so desperate for attention, right?
00:37:50Summer makes a valid point.
00:37:51Mr. Hawthorne and Alyssa are in completely different worlds.
00:37:54How could he possibly send her wine?
00:37:56Go home and page your actors.
00:38:00Alyssa, I think there's something you should know.
00:38:03If we hadn't gone to the same high school together,
00:38:06you wouldn't have any chance of sitting here with us, having meal,
00:38:10let alone getting to know Mr. Hawthorne.
00:38:13You all have gone too far.
00:38:15This is supposed to be a class reunion party
00:38:18and you're all targeting Alyssa.
00:38:20What are you trying to do?
00:38:22What are we trying to do?
00:38:24She needs to know her place.
00:38:26Instead of deceiving us with lies again and again.
00:38:29How dare she do it and not admit it.
00:38:32Yes, Summer, as the saying goes,
00:38:34ugly people make more trouble,
00:38:36but poor people make even more trouble.
00:38:40I couldn't care less what you think of me,
00:38:42but I didn't hire actors for this.
00:38:45We are all regular employees of the hotel.
00:38:47We cannot be hired as private actors.
00:38:50You must have misunderstood.
00:38:58Misunderstood?
00:39:00Alyssa, you really are hopeless.
00:39:03You found some actors and got two bottles of fake wine
00:39:07thinking you could show off at the reunion party?
00:39:11This cheap wine is only good for making noise when it shatters.
00:39:17With this order from President Hawthorne,
00:39:20I don't have to worry about my performance
00:39:23for the rest of the month.
00:39:25I think I'm going to make Ms. Fair
00:39:27a VVVIP customer from now on.
00:39:32I'm going to make Ms. Fair
00:39:34a VVVIP customer from now on.
00:39:37Hello?
00:39:38Oh, good, Mr. Carlos.
00:39:40Ms. Bell is in trouble.
00:39:42What? I'm coming over.
00:39:44Damaging someone else's property?
00:39:46Lavinia, you have never been one to consider
00:39:48the consequences of doing whatever Summer tells you to do.
00:39:51How much can a fake bottle of wine be worth?
00:39:54I'll pay her, and I'll pay for the remaining wine,
00:39:57and I'll just buy them all
00:39:59so that she can smash them for fun.
00:40:01You're disgusting.
00:40:03We're ashamed to have you as a classmate.
00:40:06You don't deserve to be at our party.
00:40:08Security!
00:40:09Where's the security?
00:40:10How may I assist you?
00:40:11Well, we don't know who this woman is,
00:40:13and I don't know how she got in here,
00:40:15and I want her out of here.
00:40:17Well, this is Summer Hart,
00:40:19fiancé of the president of Hawthorne's group.
00:40:23And having her here
00:40:25means that she's going to have to leave.
00:40:29And having her here,
00:40:31we don't want to have any trouble.
00:40:33I see.
00:40:34Now, what are you doing?
00:40:38What is going on here?
00:40:40Who gave you permission to expel my esteemed guest?
00:40:47Did you just call Elisa an esteemed guest?
00:40:51Yes, I did.
00:40:53In fact,
00:40:54Miss Vale is one of our VIP customers.
00:40:59That can't be possible.
00:41:01Her family went bankrupt years ago.
00:41:04She probably can't even afford to pay her rent.
00:41:06Let me correct myself.
00:41:08Not only is Miss Vale our esteemed guest,
00:41:12not only is she our VVVIP customer,
00:41:16but beforehand was arranged to be sent
00:41:18by President Hawthorne to her.
00:41:21Does my word count?
00:41:23Do I have any weight around here?
00:41:25Mr. Carlos, there must be some mistake.
00:41:28Well, the wine was personally arranged
00:41:31by President Hawthorne's personal assistant, Ronan.
00:41:35How could there possibly be a mistake?
00:41:39Summer, how could Mr. Hawthorne
00:41:41be sending wine to Elisa?
00:41:43How am I supposed to know what Lucian is thinking?
00:41:47You said that you'd pay me back tenfold.
00:41:49Forget the tenfold.
00:41:51Here's the original price.
00:41:54Is Lucian going to be angry with me for this?
00:41:57Whatever. Let's just enjoy this moment.
00:41:59What's going on?
00:42:00Did President Hawthorne really send wine to Elisa?
00:42:03I have no idea.
00:42:05Maybe Summer is just lying
00:42:07and she's being presumptuous about Mr. Hawthorne.
00:42:10So, Summer, what's the best way
00:42:12for you to pay me back for this?
00:42:16You should have seen the look on Summer's face
00:42:19when she tried to swipe her card.
00:42:20It was hilarious.
00:42:22Oh, my gosh.
00:42:23Today, we finally showed her who's boss.
00:42:25I know, but I feel like everyone knows
00:42:28that Summer is Lucian's dream girl.
00:42:30When he finds out I, the placeholder wife,
00:42:32am totally getting the...
00:42:34Legally, you are Mr. Hawthorne's wife.
00:42:36You are literally the President's wife.
00:42:39You have the high ground.
00:42:40What are you so afraid of?
00:42:42Come on. Let's go drink. It's all right.
00:42:44You actually want to drink right now?
00:42:46Yes.
00:42:47No.
00:42:48Oh, my God.
00:42:55Amelia, be honest with me, okay?
00:42:58What is it?
00:42:59I don't...
00:43:00I don't understand why Lucian wanted to marry me.
00:43:03I don't know. It's just...
00:43:05I'm starting to feel like maybe he...
00:43:07Like...
00:43:09Is he actually someone you...
00:43:11Hey, Elisa.
00:43:12I have something I have to attend to,
00:43:14so I'm going to be leaving now.
00:43:16What? Wait, no.
00:43:18Are you gossiping about me behind my back
00:43:21while you're drunk?
00:43:25Are you real?
00:43:27Or am I dreaming?
00:43:28Well, no, you're not dreaming.
00:43:30I'm actually here to take you home.
00:43:31Big gossip?
00:43:33No.
00:43:34I don't want to go home.
00:43:35I want to drink more.
00:43:37Elisa, you've had too much.
00:43:39You're gonna have a headache tomorrow.
00:43:41Oh, who knew Mr. Hawthorne was so gentle and thoughtful?
00:43:44Come on.
00:43:45I can't walk,
00:43:47so I could just live here.
00:43:50Okay.
00:43:51I will carry you back then.
00:43:54Come on.
00:43:56All right, ready?
00:43:57Three, two, one.
00:43:59Okay, here we go.
00:44:07Mr. Hawthorne, good evening.
00:44:08Here I am, working overtime in the middle of the night,
00:44:11driving at this speed.
00:44:13Excuse me, excuse me.
00:44:16Christian, why did you marry me?
00:44:20Christian, why did you marry me?
00:44:22Actually, I've been in love with you for ten years,
00:44:25ever since I first saw you.
00:44:30Back then, the internal struggles in the Hawthorne family
00:44:32were severe, and my father was also.
00:44:37Christian,
00:44:39let your father rest in peace.
00:44:44You are all I've got now.
00:44:49Anyway,
00:44:51I didn't dare to show you even a sliver
00:44:53of my feelings for you.
00:44:55But the hatred between our parents
00:44:56made me hide my feelings for you.
00:44:58Could you give me a chance?
00:45:01Yeah.
00:45:03Well, I'll tell you this another time.
00:45:07Elisa always goes against me, making me embarrassed.
00:45:10She's the worst!
00:45:12I have an idea that doesn't require us to get involved
00:45:15and can make Elisa leave Mr. Hawthorne.
00:45:18Oh?
00:45:20What is it?
00:45:22What is it?
00:45:23Everyone knows that Mr. Hawthorne is devoted to his mother.
00:45:26If we tell her about Elisa seducing Mr. Hawthorne,
00:45:30then she's going to have a heart attack.
00:45:33Elisa seducing Mr. Hawthorne, then...
00:45:37Good idea.
00:45:39Mia is the matriarch of the Hawthorne family.
00:45:42She's very clever,
00:45:44but she never got involved in the family business
00:45:47and she's lived in seclusion abroad for years.
00:45:50Even I haven't spoken to her.
00:45:53All we need to do is send an anonymous text message
00:45:57to Mrs. Hawthorne.
00:45:58Then we just need to wait for Elisa
00:46:00to be expelled from the Hawthorne family.
00:46:08I went through great lengths to get this,
00:46:11but I never contacted her because I didn't have a reason.
00:46:14Do it for me.
00:46:16When Elisa is dealt with, you will be rewarded.
00:46:23It's my pleasure to help you, Ms. Hart.
00:46:26I just hope that when you become the president's wife,
00:46:31you won't forget me.
00:46:33Of course not.
00:46:41Matriarch Hawthorne,
00:46:43you received an anonymous message on your phone.
00:46:46What does it say?
00:46:47It says there's a vixen named Miss Brown, Mr. Hawthorne.
00:46:50She told him so much that he's been ignoring
00:46:52his Hawthorne group affairs.
00:46:57Book me a flight.
00:46:59I need to go back immediately.
00:47:04Oh, my God.
00:47:05I'm going to be late again today.
00:47:07Oh, my God.
00:47:08I'm so sorry.
00:47:10I'm so sorry.
00:47:11You need to pay for this.
00:47:13Anyway, it was you that bumped into me,
00:47:16and it was just a light touch.
00:47:17I have no idea how you must have fallen like that.
00:47:19Are you trying to leave me?
00:47:20Because I don't know what's the matter with your generation.
00:47:23Having no respect for the elderly.
00:47:26How did I?
00:47:28Okay, here, can I help you get up first?
00:47:32Yeah.
00:47:33Well, are you going to help me up?
00:47:36Are you okay?
00:47:37No, I am not okay.
00:47:39My leg really hurts.
00:47:40I don't think I'm going to be able to walk.
00:47:42You need to take responsibility for this.
00:47:44How can a young girl be so bad?
00:47:46She hit somebody.
00:47:47She doesn't want to take responsibility.
00:47:49She looks good, but she's ugly on the inside.
00:47:52No, no, no.
00:47:53The truth is...
00:47:54Never mind.
00:47:55Okay.
00:47:56Ma'am, do you have your family's contact information?
00:47:59I can help you reach out to them.
00:48:01Family?
00:48:03Who are my family?
00:48:06I don't remember.
00:48:10You don't remember who your family is?
00:48:14I don't remember anything.
00:48:15What do I do?
00:48:16You don't remember where you live?
00:48:18I don't remember anything.
00:48:20What do I do?
00:48:21I...
00:48:22How about I take you to the hospital,
00:48:24and then to a police station?
00:48:27No, no, no, no, no.
00:48:28I'm not going to a hospital or a police station.
00:48:31I don't trust anybody.
00:48:33Oh, no.
00:48:34I'm going to be late.
00:48:35But there's the weekly department meeting today.
00:48:37I can't take leave.
00:48:40Okay, uh...
00:48:41Ma'am, since you're not going anywhere,
00:48:43how about I take you to my company office?
00:48:46And then, after work,
00:48:47I'll help you find your family.
00:48:49Fine.
00:48:50Miss, you need to take responsibility for this.
00:48:52You cannot leave my side.
00:48:54Okay, okay.
00:48:56Ow, ow, ow, ow.
00:48:58What?
00:48:59My mom's returned home?
00:49:00Yes, Mr. Hawthorne.
00:49:01According to Matriarch Robinson's assistant,
00:49:03Matriarch Robinson received an anonymous text message about you
00:49:06and rushed back into the country.
00:49:07What was the text?
00:49:08It said,
00:49:09Mr. Hawthorne, you've been enchanted by seductress.
00:49:12She's always had a temper.
00:49:13Okay.
00:49:14I'm going to attend the business meeting personally.
00:49:16Are you afraid the Matriarch Robinson will suddenly come to our company?
00:49:19I mean, yeah.
00:49:20Unless there's some unexpected twist,
00:49:22she'll probably be there.
00:49:23All right, Mr. Hawthorne.
00:49:24I'll arrange it right away.
00:49:28Mom, please don't scare off the wife I finally got.
00:49:33How did the matter about Matriarch Robinson go?
00:49:36Rest assured, Miss Hart,
00:49:38it's said that Matriarch Robinson was furious upon hearing the news
00:49:42and returned home immediately.
00:49:44Really?
00:49:45Then Elisa will be out of here soon.
00:49:48Yes.
00:49:49Congratulations in advance, Miss Hart.
00:49:52Let's go.
00:49:53There's a weekly meeting of the business department
00:49:55and Lucian will be there personally.
00:49:57We can't afford to make a mistake.
00:50:00Um, Amelia's gone on a work trip,
00:50:02so you can sit in her spot while she's gone.
00:50:08If, if you get bored, you can just play on my phone.
00:50:11Okay.
00:50:12And you have to keep your voices down because people are working.
00:50:14Okay.
00:50:15I just want to know if I can pay you this time.
00:50:17Everyone,
00:50:18the weekly meeting is about to begin.
00:50:20Elisa, why did you bring a cleaner to work?
00:50:23Elisa really treats the company as her home,
00:50:26bringing in anyone she likes.
00:50:28Seriously, so filthy.
00:50:30It's disgusting just looking at them.
00:50:36Elisa, our entire department is filled up with work and you...
00:50:41If we have to delay our work,
00:50:43are you going to take responsibility for that?
00:50:45Miss Hart,
00:50:46this woman might have some trouble with her memory,
00:50:48so I'm only bringing her here temporarily.
00:50:51I was going to help her find her family after work
00:50:53and if she could just sit here for the time being,
00:50:55I promise that she won't disturb anybody.
00:50:57You mean you brought this old hag in off the street
00:51:01and she's also sick?
00:51:03I think you're crazy.
00:51:04Picking up an old hag like this,
00:51:06speaking of poverty,
00:51:07stinking up the whole office.
00:51:09What if you find her in a sewer?
00:51:12What if this old hag isn't just mentally ill
00:51:14but also could infect us all with some disease?
00:51:17Yeah, Miss Hart,
00:51:18I really think we should call a cleaner later
00:51:20to disinfect everywhere this lady's been.
00:51:22How could all of you be so cruel?
00:51:25Don't you all have families too?
00:51:27What if one of them had lost their memory
00:51:29and needed your help?
00:51:30This girl, she's interesting.
00:51:32I'm not the one who's sick.
00:51:34You're sick!
00:51:37Disgusting.
00:51:38Elisa, our company has rules and regulations.
00:51:41It's not a place for you to show your kindness.
00:51:44Get this old hag out of here now.
00:51:49Get this old hag out of here now.
00:51:52Miss Hart, there is nothing in our company policy
00:51:54that discourages helping somebody in need.
00:51:56In fact, it encourages us to do so.
00:51:58Oh, there isn't?
00:51:59Well, now there is.
00:52:03Do you have a problem?
00:52:04Miss Hart is a senior leader in our company.
00:52:06She can represent our president
00:52:08and now she just happened to add another company rule.
00:52:11Even if she asks security to drag you out,
00:52:13there's nothing you can do.
00:52:15Understand?
00:52:17How come the employees of the business department are like this?
00:52:21Lucian will be here soon from the business department.
00:52:24Elisa, you have two minutes.
00:52:26If you don't get this old hag out of here,
00:52:29I will fire you.
00:52:30You can go beg on the street with her.
00:52:32Maybe then you'll make more money than you do now.
00:52:36Summer, you are really pushing it.
00:52:38Tell me, what else can you do besides flaunt your authority?
00:52:41I'm reporting you to Mr. Hawthorne.
00:52:44As a low-level employee,
00:52:46you have contradicted me one too many times.
00:52:48And now you dare go see Mr. Hawthorne?
00:52:51You're fired.
00:52:54Two years.
00:52:55Two years away from this company
00:52:57and I never thought that the business department
00:52:59at the Hawthorne Group would decay into this state.
00:53:05Elisa will not be fired.
00:53:07You will.
00:53:10You will.
00:53:13Matthew, did I just hear this old hag say she's going to fire us?
00:53:17She has a problem with her brain, that's why she's talking crazy.
00:53:20It's hard to tell a president's wife to be firing her.
00:53:24Too ridiculous.
00:53:26Besides memory loss, is she also crazy?
00:53:29Why are they saying president's wife?
00:53:33Isn't it you?
00:53:34Are all of you quite finished?
00:53:36I can't believe how shallow you are.
00:53:38You are kind and righteous.
00:53:40You never use Lucian's identity to gain power.
00:53:43But you?
00:53:45Okay, ma'am, it's okay.
00:53:46I'm going to help you find your family.
00:53:48Let's go.
00:53:49Why do we need to leave?
00:53:50Why don't they leave first?
00:53:51Fine, since you're determined to cling to us.
00:53:54Matthew, get this old hag out of here right now.
00:54:05You've got guts.
00:54:07I'll see who dares to kick me out of here today.
00:54:17You actually dared to hit me?
00:54:20Ms. Hart?
00:54:22Elisa, this woman attacked my subordinate.
00:54:25I could have her sent to a mental hospital.
00:54:27You don't have the authority.
00:54:29Of course I do.
00:54:30She hit my subordinate.
00:54:31I can reasonably deduce she has some mental issues.
00:54:34How many times do I have to tell you?
00:54:35Yes, this woman is clearly sick,
00:54:37but naturally I'm going to find her family to let them handle it.
00:54:41If you and Matthew hadn't instigated this,
00:54:43none of this would have happened.
00:54:45This woman's actions can only be described as self-defense.
00:54:47Yeah, I think you're the one who's crazy.
00:54:49You don't respect the elderly.
00:54:51You're not qualified to be a leader.
00:54:53I don't know why your company's higher-ups even chose you.
00:54:58Oh, are you angry?
00:55:02Oh, God!
00:55:04Matthew, make these two disappear from my sight!
00:55:07Security!
00:55:08Throw both of them out of Hawthorne group.
00:55:12With me here, I can't drive you away.
00:55:15I tell you, I am...
00:55:17Summer, what are you doing?
00:55:21Summer, what are you doing?
00:55:25Oh my God, why does Lucian come to the business department every day?
00:55:29Fine.
00:55:30I guess we'll have another showdown.
00:55:32Explain.
00:55:33Well, it's like this.
00:55:34Elisa brought this woman in off the street,
00:55:36who smells terrible,
00:55:37and insisted on having her in the office,
00:55:39which was disrupting everyone's work,
00:55:41so I'm only thinking of the company.
00:55:43Yes, Mr. Hawthorne.
00:55:44What if she has some contagious disease and infects everyone?
00:55:48I take full responsibility for this incident.
00:55:50If the company wishes, I can hand in my resignation.
00:55:55Hawthorne group is not an impersonal company.
00:55:57Elisa's done well.
00:56:00From today forward,
00:56:01you'll be promoted to team leader,
00:56:03and oversee projects as a reward.
00:56:05Mr. Hawthorne, I'm...
00:56:07I'm afraid I'm not qualified for this position.
00:56:10I believe everyone here knows your abilities well.
00:56:14As for you,
00:56:16you can go to HR,
00:56:17and they'll handle your resignation.
00:56:20He is the backbone of the business department.
00:56:23If you fire him, there'll be no elites left.
00:56:25Summer, you've managed the business department into a mess.
00:56:27You're responsible for that.
00:56:29I promise to manage the business department better.
00:56:31This won't happen again.
00:56:33Matthew,
00:56:34why have you not apologized to this madame and miss Vail yet?
00:56:41Matthew,
00:56:42why have you not apologized to this madame and miss Vail yet?
00:56:48I'm sorry.
00:56:49Please forgive me.
00:56:50Why are you apologizing first?
00:56:52Why are you apologizing first?
00:56:54This one almost just put me into a mental hospital.
00:56:56You old hag.
00:56:58How dare you ask me to apologize?
00:57:00Miss Hart,
00:57:02apologize.
00:57:06Sorry.
00:57:07I'm sorry, I can't hear you.
00:57:14I was wrong.
00:57:15I'm sorry.
00:57:17And you guys?
00:57:18You guys?
00:57:22I'm sorry.
00:57:23Sorry.
00:57:26Have I been misunderstanding him all this time?
00:57:29Could it be?
00:57:30Well, that's the end of that matter.
00:57:32I'll take care of this lady,
00:57:34and help her find her family.
00:57:40Listen, why did you call me over?
00:57:42What if Elisa finds out?
00:57:43Well, what exactly are you trying to do?
00:57:45I want to test my daughter-in-law.
00:57:48Haven't you tested her enough today?
00:57:50She's great.
00:57:51You saw that.
00:57:56Oh, Lucian.
00:57:59You're quite loyal, aren't you?
00:58:02That's enough.
00:58:05Fine.
00:58:07Look, Elisa is a very good girl,
00:58:10but it seems she doesn't even know that you like her.
00:58:14Nor does anyone else know that she's your wife.
00:58:17Why are you keeping this marriage so secretive?
00:58:21I don't know how to tell her.
00:58:23I'm afraid that if we make our relationship public,
00:58:26pressure will be too much for her.
00:58:28Lucian, when did you become such a coward?
00:58:31Look, if you like her, just confess boldly.
00:58:36You don't want to wait until Elisa falls for some other guy
00:58:39before you feel regret, do you?
00:58:42Regret what?
00:58:45Nothing.
00:58:46Please, come sit.
00:58:51Elisa.
00:58:53I'm sorry I deceptive earlier.
00:58:56I...
00:58:58I'm actually Lucian's mother.
00:59:00What?
00:59:03Please, let me explain.
00:59:06A few days ago, I got an anonymous text
00:59:09saying that some woman was trying to seduce Lucian
00:59:13and I got afraid that he might get tricked.
00:59:17Anyway, Elisa, can you please forgive me?
00:59:23Yes, Mrs. Hoffman, I understand.
00:59:25You're just looking out for your son.
00:59:27But I am concerned that the person who sent that text
00:59:29must have had bad intentions.
00:59:31I have an idea, Senator. Go ahead.
00:59:33Good.
00:59:35And Elisa?
00:59:36I heard that Lucian plans on taking you
00:59:38to a very fancy dinner tonight.
00:59:41Okay.
00:59:42There's actually something I want to talk to you about.
00:59:55Lucian, why aren't you eating?
00:59:59Yeah.
01:00:00Of course.
01:00:05Elisa, what do you want to ask me?
01:00:07If you want a divorce, it's not going to happen.
01:00:10Why would you think I want a divorce?
01:00:17Okay.
01:00:19I've been meaning to ask you.
01:00:22You've liked Summer for ten years.
01:00:25I mean, why would you marry me?
01:00:27Why protect me at every turn?
01:00:29Hold on.
01:00:32You think I've liked Summer for ten years?
01:00:34Judging by his reaction, he must have been caught off guard.
01:00:38Elisa, you're being too presumptuous.
01:00:40Seriously, why would I have liked her for ten years?
01:00:43Elisa, I've liked you for ten years.
01:00:48What?
01:00:50How could that possibly be?
01:00:51The first day we met, I fell for you.
01:00:54But because of the conflict between our parents,
01:00:58I chose to get one more.
01:01:02I wanted to show you that I cared for you, but I couldn't.
01:01:05I was afraid that it would put you in danger.
01:01:08I'm really sorry, Elisa.
01:01:10All these years, I've suppressed my feelings for you.
01:01:15I fought tooth and nail to be the head of the Hawthorne family.
01:01:20And now it's taken me a decade to fully stand by you like this.
01:01:25So why now?
01:01:29And now it's taken me a decade to fully stand by you like this.
01:01:34So why now?
01:01:35I was afraid if I told you that you didn't like me,
01:01:38we wouldn't even be colleagues anymore.
01:01:41And so it's ruined.
01:01:43So when you sat next to me all those years ago,
01:01:45it wasn't because you didn't like your food?
01:01:50Hey, I don't really like this.
01:01:53Thanks.
01:02:02Yeah, I'm really sorry I couldn't show you my feelings in the proper way.
01:02:10But then, why did you write Summer that love letter back then?
01:02:14What love letter?
01:02:16I only remember delivering a party invitation to her from my parents.
01:02:21Why are all your passwords Summer's birthday?
01:02:23You mean 0903.
01:02:26What does that have to do with Summer? I don't even know her birthday.
01:02:29So then what's 0903 to you?
01:02:31Elisa 0903, September 3rd.
01:02:34It's the day we first met.
01:02:37So it was all just a misunderstanding?
01:02:42So it was all just a misunderstanding?
01:02:45Listen, I love you.
01:02:49I know I tricked you into marrying me.
01:02:52The feelings for you are absolutely true.
01:02:55So can you try to accept me?
01:03:00I know that our marriage started as a contract, but it feels real to me now.
01:03:06I love you.
01:03:08I want to be with you.
01:03:10I want to be with you now, and I want to be with you in the world.
01:03:14I love you.
01:03:18I love you.
01:03:24You're finally mine.
01:03:28I'm yours.
01:03:39Hey, from now on, we're true husband and wife.
01:03:43We don't have to keep our relationship secret in front of our colleagues anymore.
01:03:46Okay.
01:03:51Lucian, I...
01:03:53Elise, you...
01:03:55Summer, I'd like you to meet my wife.
01:03:57What?
01:03:59Elisa and I have actually been married for a long time,
01:04:01so you don't have to send those divisive text messages to my mom anymore.
01:04:04We all like Elisa.
01:04:06So no matter how much you try to sow discord between us,
01:04:09it's never going to work.
01:04:11What text messages? I...
01:04:12I have the evidence, Summer.
01:04:16Now, considering the relationship between our families,
01:04:19I'm going to ask you to go ahead and submit your resignation from your team.
01:04:23As for everyone else,
01:04:25you all get off an hour early today.
01:04:28And you're invited to dinner with my wife.
01:04:32Yay!
