Short filmTranscript
00:00:00I, Alisa, a nobody in the workplace, single since birth for 23 years, never even held
00:00:11a man's hand, but last night I accidentally slept with my boss.
00:00:16He's a CEO, he's the kind of guy that you read about in novels, and he already has a
00:00:20woman in his heart.
00:00:21Hey, it's been a really long night.
00:00:23Hey, it's been a really long night, and I think it should be a longer night.
00:00:32You should come over.
00:00:34I'll see you soon.
00:00:39What do you mean by question mark?
00:00:41Because you used to be fun.
00:00:43I have good wine.
00:00:45I'm in room 1501.
00:00:47I'll see you soon.
00:00:52I'm coming.
00:01:03Mr. Hawthorne?
00:01:06What are you doing?
00:01:22Alisa?
00:01:23Hey, Mom.
00:01:24Please come home as soon as possible.
00:01:25I just received an order from the court.
00:01:26Since we are unable to repay the huge debt your father owed, our house will be auctioned
00:01:27off to pay off the debt.
00:01:28We must move out of the house now.
00:01:29Don't worry.
00:01:30I'm going to be right there.
00:01:31Alisa?
00:01:32Alisa?
00:01:33Alisa?
00:01:34Alisa?
00:01:35Alisa?
00:01:36Alisa?
00:01:37Alisa?
00:01:38Alisa?
00:01:39Alisa?
00:01:40Alisa?
00:01:41Alisa?
00:01:42Alisa?
00:01:43Alisa?
00:01:44Alisa?
00:01:45Alisa?
00:01:46Alisa?
00:01:47Alisa?
00:01:48Alisa?
00:01:49Alisa?
00:01:50Don't worry.
00:01:51I'm going to be right there.
00:01:54Finally.
00:02:02Oh my goodness.
00:02:04Mom, are you okay?
00:02:08I'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, I'm sorry.
00:02:23Is there anything else in there?
00:02:25No, this is it.
00:02:29One second, okay? I'll be right back.
00:02:32Hello?
00:02:33Elisa, where are you? Don't you remember where we're supposed to meet?
00:02:37And the conference room at 9. Manager Smith's gone crazy looking for you.
00:02:41I'm so sorry, but something unexpected happened at home and, um...
00:02:44If you could please just tell management that...
00:02:48Hello?
00:02:50No, no, no, no, no, no, fuck.
00:02:54I just lost my house and now I'm going to lose my job too?
00:02:57Where am I going to find a million dollars?
00:03:03Elisa?
00:03:05Why are you crying?
00:03:08Um...
00:03:10Fuck.
00:03:12Mr. Hawthorne, what are you doing here?
00:03:14Oh, I'm actually here for you.
00:03:15What?
00:03:17I need a marriage partner.
00:03:19Again, what?
00:03:21I 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, but you really don't...
00:03:33Look, 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 doesn't get auctioned off.
00:03:46If you agree, we can get the marriage certificate right now.
00:03:58Why do you want to help me?
00:04:00I told you, I need a wife.
00:04:03And you're the most suitable person.
00:04:10Okay.
00:04:12It's for my family. I have no other way.
00:04:18Mr. Hawthorne, thank you so much for helping me. I promise I will pay you back every cent as soon as I can.
00:04:25You don't pay me back more than happy.
00:04:29I'm going to get back to work then.
00:04:31Ronan will actually take you back and I'll give you my home address so you can move in tonight.
00:04:37Your home address?
00:04:40We're legally married. What's wrong with living together?
00:04:45Right. This is a deal. I can't just take the money and give nothing in return.
00:04:50I can get myself to work. And I'll be back on time tonight.
00:05:01Elisa, you're finally mine.
00:05:09Oh my god! I'm so sorry. It was raining and I didn't see you there.
00:05:13No worries. It's fine.
00:05:19Can I have your name?
00:05:20I'm Elisa.
00:05:23Yo! Never knew Mr. Hawthorne would have such a silly smile moment.
00:05:32It's real? If your mom finds out you married a Cinderella.
00:05:36I give a fuck. You watch your mouth.
00:05:42You really married Mr. Hawthorne?
00:05:44It's just a contract marriage.
00:05:46Oh, shh. Let's pay the team later.
00:05:48Mrs. Elisa Hawthorne, you are the CEO's wife so where is my pay rate?
00:05:54Come on. We've known each other since middle school.
00:05:57I don't think he actually likes me.
00:05:59Plus, everyone in the company knows who he actually wants to be with.
00:06:04Ms. Hart is back!
00:06:21Hello everyone. Please, help yourself to have some cake.
00:06:25Thank you, Ms. Hart. You are so very kind.
00:06:28It's really such an honor to work with you.
00:06:30Please, don't flatter me.
00:06:32I have to go see Mr. Hawthorne right now. He must want to see me right now.
00:06:37Save a slice for me, honey.
00:06:40When do you think they will make their own relationship public?
00:06:43Probably soon. Last time I accidentally saw Mr. Hawthorne unlock his phone.
00:06:47The code is 0903, Ms. Hart's birthday. Isn't it a little too obvious?
00:06:52Wow, I never knew Mr. Hawthorne would be so romantic. He usually puts on a poker face.
00:06:56Amelia, my relationship with Mr. Hawthorne.
00:07:00Please, don't talk about it.
00:07:12Okay.
00:07:160903.
00:07:20It's Summer's birthday again.
00:07:22If they love each other so much, then it's okay. Whatever it is, he's just not getting his money back.
00:07:28He's just not getting his money back.
00:07:38Why aren't you coming in?
00:07:42Why aren't you coming in?
00:07:44Mr. Hawthorne, I think that we should-
00:07:46Follow me.
00:07:59What should I do? Am I supposed to sleep with him tonight?
00:08:03I know that we did that before, but I was drunk.
00:08:10If I turn him down, will he get angry? But if I don't-
00:08:15Alyssa? You okay?
00:08:17I'm fine. Thank you for asking.
00:08:20Listen, I'm- I'm not ready.
00:08:23I was just going to turn off the light.
00:08:27What did you think I was going to do?
00:08:29Oh yeah. No, but it's not-
00:08:32I don't love him.
00:08:34It's not because he's not here?
00:08:37You're asking the wrong person.
00:08:43I'm not sure I'm ready.
00:08:45What did you think I was going to do?
00:08:47Oh yeah, no, don't get me wrong, I just meant I wasn't ready to sleep yet.
00:08:53Elisa, I don't want some one night stand. I want to be your everything.
00:09:05Matthew, why did the negotiations with the sunlight crew fail?
00:09:08It's Elisa's fault. If she hadn't skipped work that day, we could have succeeded.
00:09:13How is it her fault? Please give me a reasonable explanation.
00:09:17I heard someone saw Mr. Hawthorne entering her hotel room the night before Elisa skipped work.
00:09:25What? What did you say to me?
00:09:27It is absolutely true.
00:09:29Not only did she cause our failure, but she dared to seduce Mr. Hawthorne when you were away.
00:09:43Matthew, you know how important our negotiations with the sunlight crew is.
00:09:48And since it is your subordinate's fault, you know what to do.
00:09:53Alright, Mr. Schrute, I know what to do.
00:10:03Last night, with Lucian laying beside me, I couldn't sleep at all.
00:10:09Elisa, is this how you do your job?
00:10:11Look what trouble you brought us!
00:10:13It is because of you that we lost the project with the sunlight crew. You're fired.
00:10:18Mr. Clark, I was only in charge of the initial budget, not the negotiations.
00:10:22I don't understand how this could be my fault.
00:10:24Did you forget about your unexcused absence last time?
00:10:31Did you forget about your unexcused absence last time?
00:10:34That's because something unexpected happened at home, but I called in for a leave of absence.
00:10:38So what? We needed you last minute, and you weren't there.
00:10:42Now that the project has failed, if you're not to blame, who else would it be?
00:10:48I was absent that day, yes, but I prepared the initial budget ahead of time,
00:10:52so there is no way that my absence would have affected the negotiations.
00:10:57Wouldn't have affected the negotiations?
00:10:59Elisa, take a closer look. What did you write in the project budget?
00:11:05No, no, no, this isn't right. I wrote $50 million. How did it become $5 million?
00:11:16For a professional budget analyst, you've made such a sloppy mistake.
00:11:20Elisa, do you have anything else to say for yourself?
00:11:23Looks like Elisa is in trouble.
00:11:26Elisa always strikes me as a professional. How could she make such an error?
00:11:30Keep it down. Can't you see? You're just trying to find someone to take responsibility.
00:11:37Wait, I have evidence to prove that my budget was correct.
00:11:45Evidence? Then why don't you show it to everyone?
00:11:48I have the dated source files on my computer that can show that I had the right numbers.
00:11:53No, no, they were right here. How could they be gone?
00:11:56Elisa, are you joking? Where's your so-called evidence?
00:12:00Elisa, are you suggesting that Mr. Clark and Ms. Hart are conspiring against you?
00:12:07You better pack up and leave now before making a bigger fool out of yourself.
00:12:10What are you saying? I've seen the budget Elisa made. We all checked it as a team.
00:12:18Obviously, someone tampered with it.
00:12:20Are you serious?
00:12:23Obviously, someone tampered with it.
00:12:25Are you saying that we are framing her?
00:12:27At the very least, she deserves a good reason to be fired.
00:12:31Fine. If anyone else can vouch for Elisa, I can give her a second chance. Anyone?
00:12:40Weren't you there when we checked that time?
00:12:42I don't remember.
00:12:45Since there's no one, Elisa, would you like to walk yourself out or would you like me to have someone escort you out?
00:12:58This better be something important.
00:13:00Mr. Hawthorne, the business department is in uproar.
00:13:02So? Can't Summer handle it?
00:13:05She started it. Her and Mr. Clark are trying to fire Mrs. Hawthorne.
00:13:10Let's go.
00:13:15Amelia, it's okay. They clearly just want someone to blame for this entire thing.
00:13:19So what should we do then? Allow them to push all the blame onto you?
00:13:25Ms. Hart? Mr. Clark?
00:13:28I'll step down from my position, but I will never admit to mistakes that I didn't make. I will get down to the bottom of this.
00:13:35You're shameless. The evidence is right here. Where do you get the nerve to deny it?
00:13:40Besides the project book, there's also surveillance footage and there are computer backend logs.
00:13:44All of these will prove that my budget was correct, and I will investigate this until the end.
00:13:51There is no need for an investigation. You have already been fired.
00:13:57Since you refuse to leave, security, drag her out.
00:14:03Alisa, you dare to seduce the man I like when I'm not around?
00:14:07You will never save Burton Hawthorne Booth ever again.
00:14:14Summer? What are you doing?
00:14:22Why is he here? Could it be he's here to support Summer?
00:14:27Why is he here? Could it be he's here to support Summer?
00:14:31Lucian, what brings you here?
00:14:34Let her go.
00:14:36What's going on with these two? Am I fired or not? Could it be I'm just a pawn in their game?
00:14:43Care to explain what's going on?
00:14:44Well, Alisa made a big mistake at work, so I fired her.
00:14:48But she refused to leave, disrupting everyone at work, so Matthew called security to escort her out.
00:14:54Fired for what?
00:14:55Here's the thing, Mr. Hawthorne. The negotiations with the Sunlight Group failed due to Alisa's mistake.
00:15:01We had to let her go according to company regulations.
00:15:04You set me up with some half-baked plan, tried to fire me, and then called security. Is that within the lines of regulation?
00:15:11Alisa, how dare you question company regulations in front of Mr. Hawthorne?
00:15:15Lucian, see? She won't admit her mistakes, and she even questions your public.
00:15:21Oh god, now I'm really fired.
00:15:26Alisa actually talked back to Mr. Hawthorne. She has to be fired now.
00:15:34I'm actually pitying her, no matter what.
00:15:36Pitying her? You're an employee too. Mind your own business.
00:15:41Alisa, you sure are bald, aren't you?
00:15:44Alisa, don't you know what Mr. Hawthorne means?
00:15:47Alisa, don't you know what Mr. Hawthorne means? Hurry up and leave.
00:15:51Of course Lucian is on Summer's side. I'm just his wife out of nowhere.
00:15:58Surely I'm no match for his lover.
00:16:06Hold on.
00:16:11Did I tell you to leave?
00:16:13You're not angry?
00:16:14Why would I be angry?
00:16:16The company needs to find out who's responsible for Sunrise Groove Project first.
00:16:19Ronan, take charge of that.
00:16:21Yes, Mr. Hawthorne.
00:16:22So what you're saying is I'm not fired. At least for now.
00:16:30Lucian, Alisa not only made mistakes on this project, but she was absent from work without permission.
00:16:35And she defied you in public.
00:16:37Summer, I'll handle company policy, okay?
00:16:40But we never, ever fire an employee for no reason.
00:16:44I... I agree with Lucian.
00:16:48Matthew, I told you to wait until the investigation was done, but you insisted that the results were clear.
00:16:53Apologize to Mr. Hawthorne right now.
00:16:56Yes, Ms. Hart.
00:16:58Is Lucian helping me?
00:17:00But as a CEO, he needs to do things fairly in front of his employees.
00:17:04This proves nothing.
00:17:06Alisa, may I have a few words with you?
00:17:09Alisa, you are damn lucky this time.
00:17:12But you won't be for the next time.
00:17:25Mr. Hawthorne, if this is about the project, then I'm so sorry that you were bothered.
00:17:29Do you think that's why I brought you here?
00:17:34Do you think that's why I brought you here?
00:17:38Next time something like that happens, come see me. Don't let me handle it.
00:17:43You're so busy. I didn't want to bother you.
00:17:47We're married.
00:17:51You can do whatever you want.
00:17:53We're at the office. Don't fool around.
00:17:56Fool around?
00:17:58Well, that's the proper thing, since we're married.
00:18:02Well, by that I guess you mean...
00:18:05I should act like your wife all the time?
00:18:07Even while we're at work?
00:18:09That's not necessarily what I mean.
00:18:13Well, if that's all, Mr. Hawthorne, I guess I'll be going back to work.
00:18:24Alisa.
00:18:25Remember my words. Stay away from that girl.
00:18:30Alisa, when you were in Mr. Hawthorne's office...
00:18:33I'm in here!
00:18:35I can't really understand the data over here. Can you help me, please?
00:18:44Ms. Hart, may I help you?
00:18:46You are still under investigation.
00:18:48Now isn't the current time for you to be working on company projects.
00:18:52But I was just looking over there.
00:18:54Now isn't the current time for you to be working on company projects.
00:18:57But I was just looking over the project budget for the next thing.
00:19:00Your current mission is to go downstairs and fetch me a cup of coffee.
00:19:03Can't you see the trash is full? Clean it.
00:19:08Ms. Hart.
00:19:09I'm an analyst. I'm not an intern.
00:19:12What? Are you defying your superior?
00:19:15Someone is really ignorant. She hasn't been clarified yet.
00:19:18Now she's defined her superior. Does she think she owns the company?
00:19:22Right. Ms. Hart is not just the daughter of a noble family.
00:19:26She also has an unusual relationship with our president.
00:19:29It would be in your best interest to help Ms. Hart with the trifle.
00:19:33Stop being ungrateful.
00:19:35Alisa, I can have you fired for defying your superior.
00:19:39So you better choose wisely.
00:19:42You're right. I like my job.
00:19:44And I'm going to become an excellent executive in my dream company.
00:19:49Fine.
00:19:51I'll do it.
00:19:59Better to bend than break, huh?
00:20:01It doesn't matter. Let's see how long you can keep tolerating.
00:20:09Ms. Hart, your coffee.
00:20:11Hand it to me.
00:20:21Oh my god, this coffee is so hot. It almost burned me alive.
00:20:25Oh my god, I'm so sorry. Are you okay?
00:20:27Don't you know I only drink iced Americano? Who hired you anyway?
00:20:31I'm so sorry. I will go buy you one right now.
00:20:33Can't you see there's coffee on the floor? Clean it up. Now.
00:20:43Who told you you could mob the floor with that?
00:20:46If you damage the floors, can you afford to pay for them?
00:20:49How exactly would you like me to mob the floor, Ms. Hart?
00:20:52With a cloth on your hands and knees, inch by inch.
00:20:57Samara, don't you think you're going a little too far?
00:21:00What? Can't handle it? You could always quit.
00:21:10Well, by that I guess you mean I should act like your wife all the time?
00:21:16Even while we're at work?
00:21:19Mr. Hawthorne, there's an upcoming online meeting with an overseas company.
00:21:23Uh-huh.
00:21:24Hey, is the business department next to the meeting room?
00:21:28Yes, Mr. Hawthorne.
00:21:29Let's pay it a visit first.
00:21:31He was just at work, Mrs. Hawthorne, and he's already so eager to see her. He's completely in love.
00:21:39Ms. Hart, would you please lift your foot?
00:21:45I'm sorry. I didn't do it on purpose.
00:21:49Elise, when you were seducing Lucian when I was away, have you ever thought of today?
00:21:55I didn't seduce him.
00:21:57You didn't? Do you really think I wouldn't know because I was away?
00:22:02You had to seduce Lucian, then you must be prepared for my revenge.
00:22:07Samara, what the hell are you doing?
00:22:12Samara, what the hell are you doing?
00:22:14Lucian!
00:22:15Elise, are you all right?
00:22:16Elise is still under investigation, right?
00:22:18She's not suitable for working on company projects, so I had her doing simpler tasks like fetching me coffee.
00:22:24But she spilled the coffee on purpose.
00:22:27That isn't true.
00:22:28It doesn't matter anyway. I don't blame her for it.
00:22:30But she insisted on wiping it up.
00:22:32I stepped on her by accident. I was about to apologize to her.
00:22:36Is that so?
00:22:38Elise, is that actually what happened?
00:22:40Lucian is in love with Samara.
00:22:42Even if I told the truth, would he believe me?
00:22:45Yes, it's the truth.
00:22:47Come with me to my office.
00:22:51Come!
00:22:53Why on earth did Lucian call Elisa to his office again?
00:22:57He must find out.
00:23:06Have a seat.
00:23:08Your hand's hurt. You need an advantage.
00:23:11It's really fine. I can just go home and...
00:23:14No, no. I got it all right.
00:23:16Have a seat.
00:23:21All right, let's see.
00:23:23You know, Samara is competent, but she can be bossy and overbearing.
00:23:28I can transfer you to another department.
00:23:30If you can't bear her, maybe mine.
00:23:33So we can spend more time together.
00:23:36No. No, I'm fine in the business department.
00:23:38Elisa, you're my wife.
00:23:40I don't want you to be bullied anymore.
00:23:42Stop pretending like you don't know she only does that because she's in love with you.
00:23:47Okay, last step.
00:23:51Okay.
00:23:52Just don't let this hand touch water for a moment.
00:23:54Thank you, Mr. Hawthorne.
00:23:57It's just the two of us.
00:23:59You can call me by my name.
00:24:01When we're at work, I thought I shouldn't.
00:24:03Yeah, why shouldn't you?
00:24:04Lucian, why did you marry me?
00:24:06And why do you keep defending me?
00:24:09Do you really not know why?
00:24:12We've known each other since high school, but he's always kind of ignored me.
00:24:16Hasn't he always had a thing for Summer?
00:24:18Or could it be that everyone has been wrong all along?
00:24:28Bloody Elisa.
00:24:29You sure are good at playing naive.
00:24:32I must find a way to teach you a lesson.
00:24:37A reunion party?
00:24:38The gods are favoring me.
00:24:41Elisa, I must teach you a lesson this time.
00:24:51Alright, it's ready.
00:24:53How many slices do you want?
00:24:56Mom, what's wrong?
00:24:57Elisa, isn't our house supposed to be auctioned off by the court to pay off our debts?
00:25:04Why hasn't this happened yet?
00:25:06Um...
00:25:07Well, I borrowed some money from a friend to help pay off the debts.
00:25:12What friend could afford to lend you so much money at once?
00:25:18Since we went bankrupt, all our old friends have disappeared.
00:25:23Well, Mom, you don't have to worry about it.
00:25:27It's okay.
00:25:28Elisa.
00:25:33Hey, Elisa, what took you so long?
00:25:35Hey, Elisa, what took you so long?
00:25:37What's up?
00:25:38There's a school reunion party this weekend.
00:25:40They notified us in the group, but I figured you haven't read it yet since you didn't respond,
00:25:45so I'm just giving you a heads up.
00:25:47What? It's been ages.
00:25:49Why is there a high school reunion party out of nowhere?
00:25:52Here's the monthly report from the business department.
00:25:55Just leave it over there.
00:25:58How about we grab a drink tonight? I know a good place.
00:26:02I actually have plans tonight.
00:26:05If you don't have anything else, you can leave.
00:26:07Lucian, it's been so long since...
00:26:09Summer, I said I'm busy.
00:26:11Please leave.
00:26:16Hold on. Will you be at the high school reunion?
00:26:18Summer, how many ways do I have to say this?
00:26:20I'm busy.
00:26:21Leave.
00:26:22Will you be at the high school reunion?
00:26:24Summer, how many ways do I have to say this?
00:26:26I'm busy.
00:26:27Leave.
00:26:28Lucian, you have to be so gentle with me.
00:26:31But ever since Elisa came, I've become colder and colder.
00:26:36Elisa, I don't think we'll be able to do something.
00:26:44I wonder if Lucian received the invitation to the reunion.
00:26:48Is he going?
00:26:49Something I don't know?
00:26:51But there's the high school reunion party later.
00:26:54Are you going?
00:26:56Are you going?
00:26:58I don't know.
00:26:59I know you made a good point, but we don't really see each other that often.
00:27:03I thought it'd be nice to get together.
00:27:05Oh, you know what?
00:27:07I actually have a meeting.
00:27:09I think I'll pass.
00:27:10Okay.
00:27:11Yeah, that's fine.
00:27:12I'll send you something though, since I can't be there.
00:27:15You really don't have to do that.
00:27:17And I know it's far, so...
00:27:18Take this.
00:27:21Lucian, it's...
00:27:22That's way too expensive.
00:27:24I'm just gonna take the subway.
00:27:26Elisa, I'm capable of offering you a better life.
00:27:30Why would you take the subway?
00:27:32Consider this a gift.
00:27:34Lucian is acting like he actually likes me.
00:27:37What game is he playing?
00:27:40Come on.
00:27:41Take it.
00:27:44You're just giving this to me?
00:27:46Well, I'm your husband.
00:27:48Legally speaking, this mind is yours.
00:27:51Well, thank you then.
00:27:59This is a customized version.
00:28:01It should probably cost millions.
00:28:03Jesus, Elisa!
00:28:04If it weren't for you, I'd never get to be in such a luxurious car.
00:28:07Seems like Mr. Hawthorne really is madly in love with you.
00:28:11You know, I'm still at the point where I'm wondering if he even likes me.
00:28:14He does treat me well, though.
00:28:16You know all of his passwords are still Summer's birthday?
00:28:19I don't know.
00:28:21I'm probably just overthinking.
00:28:23Maybe it's a misunderstanding or a coincidence.
00:28:28I feel like Mr. Hawthorne is quite cold to Summer.
00:28:31I don't think he's into her.
00:28:32No, that's just because he's trying to keep the down-low at work.
00:28:36Well, even if he were trying to keep it that way...
00:28:39Do you know how that saying goes?
00:28:41We can try to hide our feelings, but we forget that our eyes can speak.
00:28:46The way he looks at Summer, it doesn't feel right. Do you know what I mean?
00:28:50I have absolutely no idea what you mean, because you sound crazy.
00:28:53You... I'm done. You're so mean. I can't.
00:28:56Well, we're late. We have to go.
00:28:57Okay.
00:29:05Hello, everyone. Long time no see.
00:29:08So sorry we're late.
00:29:10So, it's Elisa.
00:29:12What is it?
00:29:13The poor student back then is playing heiress now?
00:29:19Did you make us wait on purpose?
00:29:25Did you plan to arrive late deliberately to attract our attention?
00:29:29Elisa, you were still using the same lame tricks as back then, weren't you?
00:29:34Who wants to pay attention to her?
00:29:36After all this year, she still speaks of poverty.
00:29:40Hey, don't say such a word.
00:29:43What if she's doing well and busy with work?
00:29:47Maybe she didn't mean to be late.
00:29:49Her? She's probably a low-level employee.
00:29:51How well could she be doing?
00:29:53What do you mean by that?
00:29:54If Elisa and I were just...
00:29:58Oh, Summer's here.
00:30:00Although it's been years since we graduated, she's only been more gorgeous.
00:30:03Summer is both the daughter of the noble family and Mr. Hoffman's childhood friend.
00:30:09Yes, Summer is more than gorgeous now.
00:30:12Summer, come on. Sit next to me.
00:30:14I've reserved the mates.
00:30:20Sorry I'm late. Traffic was terrible.
00:30:23Never mind. It's our honor to have you.
00:30:25Summer, did you buy a new sports car?
00:30:28Not really.
00:30:30I just picked this one out of the garage because I was in a hurry.
00:30:33I'm actually tired of driving it. I haven't used it in...
00:30:37A sports car? That's something I can never afford.
00:30:40It's not that much. It's only a few hundred thousand.
00:30:44Wow, Summer sure is rich.
00:30:47Such an expensive car, but it's not nothing to her.
00:30:51Naturally, you don't even know who Summer is.
00:30:54Such a luxury car and nothing but the toy to her.
00:30:58She can have many as she wants.
00:31:00What a bunch of snobs.
00:31:02Shh. Can you stop?
00:31:04What car did you drive here?
00:31:10She? How could a poor girl like her afford a car?
00:31:13She must be taking the subway.
00:31:15Why does she race? That's the reason.
00:31:18Elisa, the subway will soon stop running.
00:31:21Do you want me to give you a ride?
00:31:23Oh, Summer, you're still so kind-hearted.
00:31:26But how can somebody as low as her be riding in your luxury car?
00:31:32Be careful not to get her poverty stanch all over you. It probably won't come off.
00:31:36What nonsense are you talking about?
00:31:38Elisa didn't take the subway and it wouldn't matter if she did.
00:31:41She drove here.
00:31:43A fancy, new limited edition convertible.
00:31:47Something more expensive than you can imagine.
00:31:50Oh my god, what a big mouth.
00:31:53What the hell? It really is a convertible.
00:31:55Impossible. She can never afford that.
00:31:58Elisa, did you rent a car just to show off at the reunion?
00:32:03It's not rented.
00:32:04Not rented? Who are you trying to fool?
00:32:07You can't afford even the cheapest one of such cars, even if you sell yourself.
00:32:11Summer, is Hawthorne Group really that good?
00:32:15Even a little employee can afford such a fancy convertible?
00:32:19Hardly. Although Hawthorne Group does have good benefits, it's not to that extent.
00:32:25With her salary, she could probably never afford it.
00:32:29Even if she worked herself to death.
00:32:31Elisa, we're all classmates here.
00:32:34You don't have to pretend to be rich.
00:32:36It probably costs half your salary to rent that car.
00:32:39It's best not to be so vain.
00:32:41What's the point of it? It's like the Cinderella.
00:32:43It will revert to its true form after midnight.
00:32:45Elisa, don't you find yourself ridiculous?
00:32:48Of course. I can never disguise being rich.
00:32:51I'm sorry to disappoint you, but it's not rented.
00:32:55It's a gift from my husband.
00:33:00Mr. Hawthorne, Mr. Walker's arrived. The meeting can start any time.
00:33:04All right.
00:33:05Oh, hey, by the way, my wife is having a class reunion tomorrow.
00:33:08Invite someone over for some fine wine.
00:33:10Yes, Mr. Hawthorne.
00:33:12I'm sorry to disappoint you, but it's not rented.
00:33:16It's a gift from my husband.
00:33:18Elisa, what's the point of lying?
00:33:21First you rent a car to show off at the reunion,
00:33:24and now you're making up a story about a wealthy husband?
00:33:29Are you living in a novel?
00:33:31Summer, aren't you colleagues with Elisa?
00:33:33You should know if she's married or not, right?
00:33:37It's not my business.
00:33:39Even though I'm her superior, I try not to pry.
00:33:43Although I don't think so.
00:33:45If she really had a rich husband, why would she work for so little salary?
00:33:51So, Elisa is lying again?
00:33:54She is so shameless.
00:33:56Amelia, I think you should stay away from Elisa.
00:34:01She got a bad influence on you.
00:34:06And what do you know?
00:34:08Elisa's husband.
00:34:10Okay, okay, you guys keep partying.
00:34:13Amelia?
00:34:19Excuse me, these are the wines sent by Mr. Hoffman.
00:34:281982 Lafite?
00:34:31But we didn't order these wines.
00:34:33I'll send you something else since I can't be there.
00:34:36The wine is for me, right?
00:34:38He did say he would send something over.
00:34:40This is too much.
00:34:42Summer, this wine must be a special gift from Mr. Hoffman for you.
00:34:45Yeah, the only one among us who deserves such attention from Mr. Hoffman is Summer.
00:34:51Who else could it be?
00:34:53This wine is from Mr. Hoffman too.
00:34:55Summer and Mr. Hoffman have been a perfect match since school.
00:34:58And now they are still so affectionate.
00:35:00I wonder if they're gonna get married soon.
00:35:02Of course, Summer is future president's wife.
00:35:06Unlike someone.
00:35:09Oh, Elisa, you see?
00:35:11You can never shake me down with dilution.
00:35:14Alright everyone, since dilution is the center of these wines, let's enjoy them together.
00:35:19But Summer, this is 1982 Lafite.
00:35:22I think some people here are not worthy of drinking such fine wine.
00:35:28They say cast your pearls before swine.
00:35:30Even if we let Elisa drink it, she wouldn't know how good Lafite is.
00:35:34That's true. To her it would be a waste.
00:35:37You're all wrong.
00:35:38This wine is for me.
00:35:43This wine is for me.
00:35:45Did I hear that right?
00:35:47You said that this wine was given to you by Mr. Hoffman?
00:35:50It's hilarious.
00:35:52Do you think you're Mrs. Hoffman?
00:35:54Mrs. Hoffman, it's Summer.
00:35:57Are you daydreaming, Elisa?
00:35:59Do you think you're some Cinderella who married a president?
00:36:02Elisa, are you jealous of me?
00:36:05Not only jealous of my family background and my job,
00:36:08now you're jealous of my relationship with Lucian.
00:36:11I want to claim the wines that were given to me.
00:36:13Don't you know that even if you try your hardest,
00:36:16what's not meant for you will never, ever be yours?
00:36:21Oh Summer, don't ruin your mood over such a rat in the gutter.
00:36:25She's just a clown.
00:36:26How can you be so confident that the wine is for Summer?
00:36:30When Summer and Mr. Hoffman started dating,
00:36:33Elisa was somewhere picking up trash.
00:36:36All you ever do is talk.
00:36:38Why the hell would I lie about something like this?
00:36:40Who knows? After all, you don't understand how the poor thinks.
00:36:44Hey, waiter, tell us.
00:36:46Who does Mr. Hoffman give these wines to?
00:36:50Yeah, tell us.
00:36:51Who does Mr. Hoffman give these wines to?
00:36:54So that someone can start daydreaming.
00:36:57These wines were given to Mrs. Elisabelle by Mr. Hoffman.
00:37:06What? This wine is from Lucian to Elisa?
00:37:09There must have been a mistake. Check it again.
00:37:12How could Mr. Hoffman possibly send wine to Elisa?
00:37:15Yes, this is indeed the wine sent from Mr. Lucian to Elisabelle.
00:37:21How could this be?
00:37:23What makes Elisa so special that Lucian would treat her like this?
00:37:27Why are you all so silent now?
00:37:30You were so talkative and confident before.
00:37:34Is it because you're a theorist?
00:37:36Okay, Amelia. Yeah, like I said, I don't need to learn.
00:37:39Mr. Hawthorne would never send wine to this bitch.
00:37:43Could it be...
00:37:44Wait. Now, Lavinia.
00:37:47Elisa, you really are desperate for attention, aren't you?
00:37:51After being exposed about the car keys,
00:37:54you've resorted to hiring actors to put on a show for us.
00:37:58Oh, my God. Lavinia, you really are imaginative.
00:38:01You should become a screenwriter. You've really got a hit on your hands.
00:38:04What? Are you getting agitated because I've uncovered the truth
00:38:08and here I am stating the facts?
00:38:10How is that imagination?
00:38:13Lavinia, I think you've got a point.
00:38:16After all, lonely people are always so desperate for attention.
00:38:23Right?
00:38:28Summer makes a valid point.
00:38:29Mr. Hawthorne and Elisa are from completely different worlds.
00:38:32How could he possibly send her wine?
00:38:34Go home and page your actors.
00:38:38Elisa, I think there's something you should know.
00:38:41If we hadn't gone to the same high school together,
00:38:44you wouldn't have any chance of sitting here with us,
00:38:47having a meal, let alone getting to know Mr. Hawthorne.
00:38:52You all have gone too far.
00:38:54This is supposed to be a class reunion party
00:38:56and you're all targeting Elisa.
00:38:58What are you trying to do?
00:39:00What are we trying to do?
00:39:02She needs to know her place
00:39:04instead of deceiving us with lies again and again.
00:39:07How dare she do it and not admit it?
00:39:10Yes, Summer, as the saying goes,
00:39:12ugly people make more trouble,
00:39:14but poor people make even more trouble.
00:39:18I couldn't care less what you think of me,
00:39:20but I didn't hire actors for this.
00:39:23We are all regular employees of the hotel.
00:39:25We cannot be hired as private actors.
00:39:28You must have misunderstood.
00:39:37Misunderstood?
00:39:38Elisa, you really are hopeless.
00:39:41You found some actors and got two bottles of fake wine
00:39:45thinking you could show off at the reunion party?
00:39:57This cheap wine is only good for making noise when it shatters.
00:40:05With this order from President Hawthorne,
00:40:08I don't have to worry about my performance.
00:40:11For the rest of the month,
00:40:12I think I'm going to make Ms. Fair
00:40:14a VVVIP customer from now on.
00:40:19Hello?
00:40:20How are you doing, Mr. Carlos?
00:40:22Ms. Fair is in trouble.
00:40:24What? I'm coming over.
00:40:26Damaging someone else's property?
00:40:28Lavinia, you have never been one to consider
00:40:30the consequences of doing whatever Summer tells you to do.
00:40:33How much can a fake bottle of wine be worth?
00:40:36I'll pay her, and I'll pay for the remaining one.
00:40:39And I'll just buy them all
00:40:41so that she can smash them for fun.
00:40:46You're disgusting.
00:40:48We're ashamed to have you as a classmate.
00:40:50You don't deserve to be at our party.
00:40:52Security! Where's your security?
00:40:54How may I assist you?
00:40:55Well, we don't know who this woman is,
00:40:57and I don't know how she got in here.
00:41:00And I want her out of here.
00:41:02Well, this is Summer Hart,
00:41:04fiance of the President of Hawthorne's Group.
00:41:09And having her here, we don't want to have any trouble.
00:41:12I see.
00:41:13And what are you doing?
00:41:17What is going on here?
00:41:20Who gave you permission to expel my esteemed guest?
00:41:28Did you just call Elisa an esteemed guest?
00:41:31Yes, I did.
00:41:33In fact, Miss Vale is one of our VIP customers.
00:41:39That can't be possible.
00:41:41Her family went bankrupt years ago.
00:41:44She probably can't even afford to pay her rent.
00:41:46Let me correct myself.
00:41:48Not only is Miss Vale our esteemed guest,
00:41:52not only is she our VVVIP customer,
00:41:56but the wine was arranged to be sent by President Hawthorne to her.
00:42:01Does my word count?
00:42:03Does it have any weight around here?
00:42:05Mr. Carlos, there must be some mistake.
00:42:08Well, the wine was personally arranged
00:42:11by President Hawthorne's personal assistant, Ronan.
00:42:15How can there possibly be a mistake?
00:42:19Summer, how could Mr. Hawthorne be sending wine to Elisa?
00:42:23How am I supposed to know what Lucian is thinking?
00:42:27You said that you would pay me back tenfold.
00:42:29Forget the tenfold. Just pay me the original price.
00:42:34Is Lucian going to be angry with me for this?
00:42:37Whatever. Let's just enjoy this moment.
00:42:39What's going on?
00:42:40Did President Hawthorne really send the wine to Elisa?
00:42:43I have no idea.
00:42:44Maybe Summer is just lying
00:42:47and she's being presumptuous about Mr. Hawthorne.
00:42:50So, Summer, what's the best way for you to pay me back for this?
00:42:53You should have seen the look on Summer's face
00:42:56when she tried to swipe her card. It was hilarious.
00:42:59Oh my gosh, today we finally showed her who's boss.
00:43:03I know, but I feel like everyone knows
00:43:05that Summer is Lucian's dream girl.
00:43:07When he finds out I, the placeholder wife,
00:43:09am totally getting the...
00:43:11Legally, you are Mr. Hawthorne's wife.
00:43:13You are literally the President's wife.
00:43:16You have the high ground.
00:43:17What are you so afraid of?
00:43:18I'm not afraid of anything.
00:43:20You're the President's wife.
00:43:21You have the high ground.
00:43:22What are you so afraid of?
00:43:24Come on, let's go drink and celebrate.
00:43:26You actually want to drink right now?
00:43:28Yes.
00:43:29No.
00:43:30Yes.
00:43:31No.
00:43:32Okay, okay.
00:43:39Amelia, be honest with me, okay?
00:43:41What is it?
00:43:42I don't...
00:43:43I don't understand why Lucian wanted to marry me.
00:43:46I don't know, it's just...
00:43:48I'm starting to feel like maybe he...
00:43:50Like...
00:43:52Is he actually someone you know?
00:43:54Hey, Lisa.
00:43:55I have something I have to attend to,
00:43:57so I'm going to be leaving now.
00:43:59What? Wait, no.
00:44:01Are you gossiping about me behind my back while you're drunk?
00:44:09Are you real?
00:44:10Or am I dreaming?
00:44:12Well, no, you're not dreaming.
00:44:13I'm actually here to take you home.
00:44:15Big gossip.
00:44:16No.
00:44:18I don't want to go home.
00:44:19I want to drink more.
00:44:20Lisa, you've had too much.
00:44:22You're going to have a headache tomorrow.
00:44:24Oh, who knew Mr. Hawthorne was so gentle and thoughtful?
00:44:28Come on.
00:44:29I can't walk, so I could just live here.
00:44:33Okay, I will carry you back then.
00:44:38Come on.
00:44:40Okay, ready?
00:44:41Three, two, one.
00:44:43Okay, here we go.
00:44:49Mr. Hawthorne, can you hear me?
00:44:51Here I am.
00:44:52Working overtime in the middle of the night.
00:44:54Driving at this speed.
00:44:55I'm sorry.
00:44:56I'm sorry.
00:44:57I'm sorry.
00:44:58Lisa, why did you marry me?
00:45:03Lisa, why did you marry me?
00:45:05Actually, I've been in love with you for ten years.
00:45:08Ever since I first saw you.
00:45:13Back then, the internal struggles in the Hawthorne family were severe.
00:45:16And my father was also.
00:45:20Listen, let your father rest in peace.
00:45:26You are all I've got now.
00:45:32Anyway, I didn't dare to show you even a sliver of my feelings for you.
00:45:37But the hatred between our parents made me hide my feelings for you.
00:45:40Could you give me a chance?
00:45:43Yeah.
00:45:45Yeah.
00:45:47Well, I'll tell you this another time.
00:45:55Elisa always goes against me, making me embarrassed.
00:45:58She's the worst!
00:46:00I have an idea that doesn't require us to get involved and can make Elisa leave Mr. Hawthorne.
00:46:06Oh?
00:46:07What is it?
00:46:11What is it?
00:46:12What is it?
00:46:13Everyone knows that Mr. Hawthorne is devoted to his mother.
00:46:16If we tell her about Elisa seducing Mr. Hawthorne, then...
00:46:22Good idea.
00:46:23Mia is the matriarch of the Hawthorne family.
00:46:27She's very clever.
00:46:29But she never got involved in the family business and she's lived in seclusion abroad for years.
00:46:35Even I haven't spoken to her.
00:46:37All we need to do is send an anonymous text message to Mrs. Hawthorne.
00:46:42Then we just need to wait for Elisa to be expelled from the Hawthorne family.
00:46:53I went through great lengths to get this, but I never contacted her because I didn't have a reason.
00:46:59Do it for me.
00:47:01When Elisa is dealt with, you will be rewarded.
00:47:08It's my pleasure to help you, Ms. Hart.
00:47:11I just hope that when you become the president's wife, you won't forget me.
00:47:18Of course not.
00:47:26Matriarch Hawthorne, we received an anonymous message on your phone.
00:47:31What does it say?
00:47:32It says there's a vixen named Ms. Brown, Mr. Hawthorne.
00:47:35She torments him so much that he's been ignoring his Hawthorne group affairs.
00:47:43Book me a flight. I need to go back immediately.
00:47:51Oh my god.
00:47:52I'm going to be late again today?
00:47:54Oh my god. I'm so sorry.
00:47:58I'm so sorry.
00:47:59You need to pay for this.
00:48:01Anyway, it was you that bumped into me and it was just a light touch.
00:48:04I have no idea how you must have fallen like that.
00:48:06Are you trying to leave me?
00:48:07Because I don't know what's the matter with your generation.
00:48:10Having no respect for the elderly.
00:48:13But how did I...
00:48:15Okay. Here, can I help you get up first?
00:48:19Yeah. Well, are you going to help me up?
00:48:23Are you okay?
00:48:24No, I am not okay. My leg really hurts.
00:48:27I don't think I'm going to be able to walk.
00:48:28You need to take responsibility for this.
00:48:30How can a young girl be so bad?
00:48:32She hit somebody. She doesn't want to take responsibility.
00:48:35She looks good, but she's ugly on the inside.
00:48:38No, no, no. The truth is...
00:48:40Never mind.
00:48:41Okay.
00:48:42Ma'am, do you have your family's contact information?
00:48:46I can help you reach out to them.
00:48:47Family?
00:48:50Who are my family?
00:48:53I don't remember.
00:48:59You don't remember who your family is?
00:49:02I don't remember anything.
00:49:04What do I do?
00:49:05You don't remember where you live?
00:49:06I don't remember anything.
00:49:08Okay.
00:49:09What do I do?
00:49:10How about I take you to the hospital and then to a police station?
00:49:15No, no, no, no, no.
00:49:17I'm not going to a hospital or a police station.
00:49:19I don't trust anybody.
00:49:21Oh, no. I'm going to be late.
00:49:23But there's the weekly department meeting today.
00:49:25I can't take leave.
00:49:28Okay.
00:49:29Ma'am, since you're not going anywhere,
00:49:31how about I take you to my company office?
00:49:34And then after work, I'll help you find your family.
00:49:37Fine.
00:49:38Because you need to take responsibility for this.
00:49:40You cannot leave my side.
00:49:43Okay, okay.
00:49:44Ow, ow, ow, ow.
00:49:46What?
00:49:47My mom's returned home?
00:49:48Yes, Mr. Hoffman.
00:49:49According to Matriarch Robinson's assistant,
00:49:51Matriarch Robinson received an anonymous text message about you
00:49:54and rushed back into the country.
00:49:55What was the text?
00:49:56It said,
00:49:57Mr. Hoffman, you've been enchanted by a seductress.
00:49:59She's always had a temper.
00:50:01Okay.
00:50:02I'm going to attend the business meeting personally.
00:50:04Are you afraid that Matriarch Robinson will suddenly come to our company?
00:50:07I mean, yeah, unless there's some unexpected twist.
00:50:10She'll probably be there.
00:50:11All right, Mr. Hoffman.
00:50:12I'll arrange it right away.
00:50:16Mom, please don't scare off the wife I finally got.
00:50:22How did the matter about Matriarch Robinson go?
00:50:25Rest assured, Ms. Hart,
00:50:27it's said that Matriarch Robinson was furious upon hearing the news
00:50:31and returned home immediately.
00:50:33Really?
00:50:34Then Elisa will be out of here soon.
00:50:37Yes.
00:50:38Congratulations in advance, Ms. Hart.
00:50:41Let's go.
00:50:42There's a weekly meeting of the business department
00:50:45and Lucia will be there personally.
00:50:47We can't afford to make a mistake.
00:50:49Um, Amelia's gone on a work trip,
00:50:51so you can sit in her spot while she's gone.
00:50:56If you get bored, you can just play on my phone.
00:50:59Okay, okay.
00:51:00Okay, and we have to keep our voices down because people are working.
00:51:03Okay, I just want to know if I can play with this phone.
00:51:05Everyone, the weekly meeting is about to begin.
00:51:08Elisa, why did you bring a cleaner to work?
00:51:11Elisa really treats the company as her home,
00:51:14bringing in anyone she likes.
00:51:16Seriously, so filthy.
00:51:18It's disgusting just looking at them.
00:51:26Elisa, our entire department is filled up with work and you?
00:51:32If we have to delay our work,
00:51:33are you going to take responsibility for that?
00:51:35Ms. Hart, this woman might have some trouble with her memory,
00:51:38so I'm only bringing her here temporarily.
00:51:41I was going to help her find her family after work
00:51:43and if she could just sit here for the time being,
00:51:45I promise that she won't disturb anybody.
00:51:47You mean you brought this old hag in off the street
00:51:51and she's also sick?
00:51:53I think you're crazy.
00:51:54Picking up an old hag like this,
00:51:56wreaking of poverty, stinking up the whole office.
00:51:59Where did you find her? In a sewer?
00:52:02What if this old hag isn't just mentally ill
00:52:04but also could infect us all with some disease?
00:52:07Yeah, Ms. Hart, I really think we should call a cleaner later
00:52:10to disinfect everywhere this lady spends.
00:52:12How could all of you be so cruel?
00:52:14Don't you all have families too?
00:52:17What if one of them had lost their memory and needed your help?
00:52:20This girl, she's interesting.
00:52:22I'm not the one who's sick.
00:52:24You're sick!
00:52:27Disgusting.
00:52:28Alisa, our company has rules and regulations.
00:52:31It's not a place for you to show your kindness.
00:52:34Get this old hag out of here now.
00:52:41Get this old hag out of here now.
00:52:44Ms. Hart, there is nothing in our company policy
00:52:46that discourages helping somebody in need.
00:52:48In fact, it encourages us to do so.
00:52:50Oh, there isn't? Well, now there is.
00:52:55Do you have a problem?
00:52:56Ms. Hart is a senior leader in our company.
00:52:58She can represent our president
00:53:00and now she just happened to add another company rule.
00:53:03Even if she asks security to drag you out,
00:53:05there's nothing you can do. Understand?
00:53:09How come the employees of the business department are like this?
00:53:13Lucian will be here soon from the business department.
00:53:16Alisa, you have two minutes.
00:53:18If you don't get this old hag out of here, I will fire you.
00:53:22You can go beg on the street with her.
00:53:24Maybe then you'll make more money than you do now.
00:53:28Summer, you are really pushing it.
00:53:30Tell me, what else can you do besides flaunt your authority?
00:53:33I'm reporting you to Mr. Hawthorne.
00:53:36As a low-level employee,
00:53:38you have contradicted me one too many times.
00:53:40And now you dare go see Mr. Hawthorne?
00:53:43You're fired.
00:53:44Two years, two years away from this company
00:53:47and I never thought that the business department
00:53:49at the Hawthorne Group would decay into this state.
00:53:55Alisa will not be fired.
00:53:57You will.
00:54:02You will.
00:54:04Matthew, did I just hear this old hag say she's going to fire us?
00:54:08She has a problem with her brain, that's why she's talking crazy.
00:54:11It's hard for our president's wife to be firing her?
00:54:15Too ridiculous.
00:54:17Besides memory loss, is she also crazy?
00:54:20Why are they saying president's wife?
00:54:24Isn't it you?
00:54:25Are all of you quite finished?
00:54:27I can't believe how shallow you are.
00:54:29You are kind and righteous.
00:54:31Do you never use Lucian's identity to gain power?
00:54:34Wait, you?
00:54:36Okay, ma'am, it's okay.
00:54:37I'm going to help you find your wife.
00:54:39Okay, ma'am, it's okay.
00:54:40I'm going to help you find your family.
00:54:42Let's go.
00:54:43Why do we need to leave?
00:54:44Why don't we leave first?
00:54:45Fine, since you're determined to cling to us.
00:54:48Matthew, get this old hag out of here right now.
00:54:59You've got guts.
00:55:01I'll see who dares to kick me out of here today.
00:55:10You actually dared to hit me?
00:55:13Miss Hart?
00:55:14Elisa, this woman attacked my subordinate.
00:55:17I could have her sent to a mental hospital.
00:55:20You don't have the authority.
00:55:21Of course I do.
00:55:22She hit my subordinate.
00:55:23I can reasonably deduce she has some mental issues.
00:55:26How many times do I have to tell you?
00:55:28Yes, this woman is clearly sick, but naturally I'm going to find her family to let them handle it.
00:55:33If you and Matthew hadn't instigated this, none of this would have happened.
00:55:37This woman's actions can only be described as self-defense.
00:55:39Yeah, I think you're the one who's crazy.
00:55:41You don't respect the elderly.
00:55:43You're not qualified to be a leader.
00:55:45I don't know why your company's higher-ups even chose you.
00:55:50Oh, are you angry?
00:55:56Matthew, make these two disappear from my sight.
00:55:59Security, throw both of them out of Hawthorne Grove.
00:56:02Security, throw both of them out of Hawthorne Grove.
00:56:07Whitney here.
00:56:08I can't drive you away.
00:56:10I tell you, I am...
00:56:12Summer, what are you doing?
00:56:18Summer, what are you doing?
00:56:21Oh my god, why does Lucian come to the business department every day?
00:56:25Fine, I guess we'll have another showdown.
00:56:28Explain.
00:56:29Well, it's like this.
00:56:30Elisa brought this woman in off the street, who smells terrible,
00:56:33and insisted on having her in the office, which was disrupting everyone's work,
00:56:37so I'm only thinking of the company.
00:56:39Yes, Mr. Hawthorne.
00:56:41What if she has some contagious disease and infects everyone?
00:56:44I take full responsibility for this incident.
00:56:47If the company wishes, I can hand in my resignation.
00:56:51Hawthorne Grove is not an impersonal company.
00:56:54Elisa's done well.
00:56:57From today forward, you'll be promoted to team leader,
00:57:00and oversee projects as a reward.
00:57:03Mr. Hawthorne, I'm...
00:57:05I'm afraid I'm not qualified for this position.
00:57:07I believe everyone here knows your abilities well.
00:57:12As for you, you can go to HR, and they'll handle your resignation.
00:57:18He is the backbone of the business department.
00:57:20If you fire him, there'll be no elites left.
00:57:23Summer, you've managed the business department into a mess.
00:57:25You're responsible for that.
00:57:27I promised to manage the business department better.
00:57:30This won't happen again.
00:57:32Matthew, why have you not apologized to this madame and miss Vail yet?
00:57:40Matthew, why have you not apologized to this madame and miss Vail yet?
00:57:47I'm sorry. Please forgive me.
00:57:50Why are you apologizing first?
00:57:52This one almost just put me into a mental hospital.
00:57:54You old hag. How dare you ask me to apologize?
00:57:58Miss Hart, apologize.
00:58:03Sorry. I'm sorry I can't hear you.
00:58:11I was wrong. I'm sorry.
00:58:15And you guys?
00:58:19I'm sorry.
00:58:20Sorry.
00:58:21Sorry.
00:58:24Have I been misunderstanding him all this time? Could it be?
00:58:27Well, it's the end of that matter.
00:58:29I'll take care of this lady and help her find her family.
00:58:38Listen, why did you call me over?
00:58:40What if Elisa finds out?
00:58:42Mom, what exactly are you trying to do?
00:58:44I want to test my daughter-in-law.
00:58:47Haven't you tested her enough today?
00:58:49She's great. You saw that.
00:58:55Oh, Lucian.
00:58:58You're quite loyal, aren't you?
00:59:01It's enough.
00:59:03Fine.
00:59:05Look, Elisa is a very good girl.
00:59:09But it seems she doesn't even know that you like her.
00:59:13Nor does anyone else know that she's your wife.
00:59:16Why are you keeping this marriage so secretive?
00:59:20I don't know how to tell her.
00:59:22I'm afraid that if we make our relationship public,
00:59:25pressure will be too much for her.
00:59:27Lucian, when did you become such a coward?
00:59:30Look, if you like her, just confess boldly.
00:59:35You don't want to wait until Elisa falls for some other guy before you feel regret, do you?
00:59:41Regret what?
00:59:43Nothing. Please, come sit.
00:59:50Elisa, I'm sorry I was deceptive earlier.
00:59:55I... I'm actually Lucian's mother.
00:59:59What?
01:00:02Please, let me explain.
01:00:04Um, a few days ago I got an anonymous text saying that some woman was trying to seduce Lucian,
01:00:11and I got afraid that he might get tricked.
01:00:15Anyway, Elisa, can you please forgive me?
01:00:21Yes, Mrs. Hoffman, I understand. You're just looking out for your son.
01:00:25But I am concerned that the person who sent that text must have had bad intentions.
01:00:29I have an idea who sent it. Go ahead.
01:00:32Good. And Elisa, I heard that Lucian plans on taking you to a very fancy dinner tonight.
01:00:40Okay.
01:00:41There's actually something I want to talk to you about.
01:00:55Lucian, why aren't you eating?
01:00:59Yeah, of course.
01:01:03Elisa, what do you want to ask me? If you want a divorce, it's not going to happen.
01:01:10Why would you think I want a divorce?
01:01:17Okay, I've been meaning to ask you.
01:01:21You've liked Summer for ten years.
01:01:24I mean, why would you marry me? Why protect me at every turn?
01:01:29What?
01:01:32You think I've liked Summer for ten years?
01:01:34Judging by his reaction, he must have been caught off guard.
01:01:38Elisa, you're being too presumptuous.
01:01:41Seriously, why would I have liked her for ten years?
01:01:43Elisa, I've liked you for ten years.
01:01:48What?
01:01:50How could that possibly be?
01:01:51The first day we met, I fell for you.
01:01:55But because of the conflict between our parents, I chose to get one.
01:02:02I wanted to show you that I cared for you, but I couldn't.
01:02:05I was afraid that it would put you in danger.
01:02:08I'm really sorry, Elisa.
01:02:10All these years, I've suppressed my feelings for you.
01:02:15I fought tooth and nail to be the head of the Hawthorne family.
01:02:20And now it's taken me a decade to fully stand by you like this.
01:02:25So why now?
01:02:27I was afraid if I told you that you didn't like me, we wouldn't even be colleagues anymore.
01:02:32And so it's wrong.
01:02:34So when you sat next to me all those years ago, it wasn't because you didn't like your food?
01:02:41Hey, I don't really like this.
01:02:46I'm sorry.
01:02:47I'm sorry.
01:02:48I'm sorry.
01:02:49I'm sorry.
01:02:50I'm sorry.
01:02:51I'm sorry.
01:02:52I'm sorry.
01:02:53I'm sorry.
01:02:54I'm sorry.
01:02:55I'm sorry.
01:03:03Yeah, I'm really sorry I couldn't show you my feelings in the proper way.
01:03:11But then, why did you write Summer that love letter back then?
01:03:15What love letter?
01:03:17I only remember delivering a party invitation to her from my parents.
01:03:22Well, why are all your passwords Summer's birthday?
01:03:25You mean 0903?
01:03:27What does that have to do with Summer?
01:03:29I don't even know her birthday.
01:03:31So then what's 0903 to you?
01:03:33Melissa 0903, September 3rd.
01:03:36It's the day we first met.
01:03:39So it was all just a misunderstanding?
01:03:45So it was all just a misunderstanding?
01:03:48Listen, I love you.
01:03:52I know I tricked you into marrying me.
01:03:55The feelings for you are absolutely true.
01:03:58So, can you try to accept me?
01:04:02I know that our marriage started as a contract, but it feels real to me now.
01:04:09I love you.
01:04:10I want to be with you.
01:04:12I want to be with you now, and I want to be with you when we're older.
01:04:17I love you.
01:04:21I love you.
01:04:27You're finally mine.
01:04:31I'm yours.
01:04:42Hey, from now on, we're true husband and wife.
01:04:46We don't have to keep our relationship secret in front of our colleagues anymore.
01:04:49Okay.
01:04:52Lucian, I...
01:04:54Elise, you...
01:04:56Summer, I'd like you to meet my wife.
01:04:58What?
01:05:00Elisa and I have actually been married for a long time.
01:05:02So you don't have to send those divisive text messages to my mom anymore.
01:05:05We all like Elisa.
01:05:07So no matter how much you try to sow discord between us, it's never going to work.
01:05:11What text messages? I...
01:05:13I have the evidence, Summer.
01:05:15Now, considering the relationship between our families,
01:05:18I'm going to ask you to go ahead and submit your resignation from your team.
01:05:22As for everyone else, you all get off an hour early today.
01:05:27And you're invited to dinner with my wife.
01:05:31Yay!
