What was that for?
You introduced me to John Moss,
forced me to leverage my company,
and put my company in jeopardy,
all for the sake of ruining my family.
Do you finally get it now?
All you cared about before was money.
What?
Do you know how many of my shares
are up as collateral for Adam Financial?
Let's get things straight.
Did I threaten you
to put up your stocks as collateral?
Did I team up with Adam Financial
for my own benefit?
All I did was introduce you to them.
Don't try and deny it now!
This is all your fault!
Why did you do it?
What do you want from me?
What are you trying to do?
What?
You wanted to bankrupt me,
seduce Byeongguk
and take Yeonhui's place?
You!
Oh please.
You think that's why
I wanted to get close to you?
What?
They call you the venomous snake.
A venomous snake. Vicious.
How can a man who is so vicious
have such poor instincts?
Why don't you know why I got close to you?
Keep your enemies close.
How can the Entrepreneur of the Year
not know the basics of business?
Who are you?
I'm sure you're curious.
Lee Donghyeon.
What?
The person you and your daughter killed.
I'm his sister.
What?
I'm sure you still remember.
You killed my brother, Lee Donghyeon.
You're...
You said you didn't regret your actions at all.
You said you did it for your daughter.
You went that far for your daughter,
and yet you're mad at me?
What about my family? What about me?
How do you think we felt
after my beloved brother was killed?
Do you know how much we suffered
after we lost my brother?
Yes, it was an accident.
It was just bad luck for the deceased.
I'm sure that's what everyone else thinks,
but not me.
It's time for me to pay you back
with the exact same pain.
No. With interest.
It's all your fault.
Your greed, your selfishness.
You killed my innocent brother.
Is that why you seduced Byeongguk?
Is that why you became Jinwu's surrogate?
To get revenge on Yeonhui?
It's not over yet, President Baek.
Until I ruin you completely, stand your ground.
There's a lot that I still owe you.
No.
There's a slight problem with John Moss
but I won't let it go to court.
Please trust me.
Mr. shareholder!
We can't tell you at this time.
No, it's not...
Hello? Reporter Lee?
What should we do?
The reporter's publishing the article.
What if President Baek gets arrested?
Watch your mouth.
Find a way to stop the reporter.
All right.
What's going on, Seongbin?
Is the rumor true, Mr. Yu?
The company we partnered with
turned out to be a fraud?
Don't worry.
I'm working on damage control.
I told them to write the article.
Once it's released,
the stock price will plummet.
When that happens, buy up everything.
Yes.
You look tired.
Are you going home today?
I want to be alone. I'm sorry.
Can't I stay with you?
I'm having a rough day, too.
Please come home tonight.
For your mother. Please.
Would you like some fruit, mother?
Yeah, Huija. You barely touched your dinner.
At least have some fruit.
Stay seated.
Is Byeongguk coming home tonight?
It's not up to Yeonhui to decide
if Byeongguk will come home or not.
Did he say he's coming home?
I'm sorry, mother.
You're sorry?
Is that all you know how to say?
You think saying sorry fixes anything?
You think that'll get us to forgive you?
Huija.
It's true.
What did I tell you?
If you didn't open up that cafe
and just looked after Byeongguk
he never would've gone for Hwayeong.
I told you to look after your husband
but you couldn't lock him down.
Goodness!
If you had been a good wife
he might've looked past your history.
Actually, that's absurd.
You kept your hideous past from us
and married Byeongguk.
This marriage is a fraud.
Stop, Huija.
I told you.
If Byeongguk doesn't come home
you'll have to leave our house.
Huija.
What about Jinwu?
Without his mother,
he won't be able to eat or sleep.
Don't worry.
After a few days,
kids forget these kinds of things.
Mother.
I can't live without Jinwu.
Please don't say that.
This is all your fault. Don't blame me.
Mother.
I'm home.
Byeongguk's home.
It's great to have you back.
Prepare dinner.
No thanks.
Come upstairs.
Go on.
Thanks for coming home, honey.
I came here for one reason.
Divorce Papers
Honey.
Is this what you really want?
All right.
I'll take Jinwu over to my parents'.
Jinwu?
Leave him here.
What? Why?
What? Jinwu has to come with me.
He's from my bloodline.
Whether we get divorced
or you stay at your parents',
you can't take Jinwu.
Honey.
You're going to raise Jinwu?
With what rights?
I'm going to raise Jinwu.
What are you doing?
I'm not leaving without Jinwu.
Absolutely not!
I have to stay strong.
For Jinwu.
I can't falter in front of Jinwu.
I'm Jinwu's mom. Jinwu's mom.
Stay strong, BaekYeonhui.
Did you make roast beef?
Good morning, mother.
The roast beef is ready.
What are you doing? Where's the maid?
Where are you?
She went out for vegetables.
Vegetables?
Yes. I made seafood soup.
Please give it a try.
That smells great. What is it?
Good morning.
I made seafood soup and roast beef.
You did?
Yes. Have a seat.
Honey.
Yumi. Jinwu.
What's wrong with her?
I don't know. Have a seat.
You have to eat well to live well.
Have a seat. She worked hard.
Come down for breakfast.
I think this tie would be better.
It's a sunny day. Wear this.
Put it away.
Mother said you like roast beef,
so I made some.
Eat before you go.
What are you doing?
I told you.
I'm not leaving without Jinwu.
You're a terrifying woman.
How can you act like nothing happened?
Because I'm a mom.
I'm Jinwu's mom.
If you love Hwayeong, be with her.
I will protect my place.
What?
I won't leave without Jinwu.
So you're going to live like a puppet
and act like Jinwu's mother?
You think I'll let you?
You have no right to be here.
Our marriage is a sham,
and it's all your fault.
I wronged you and I'm sorry.
But I can't live without Jinwu.
I may not deserve to be with you,
but you know that I'm a great mom.
So please...
Before I kick you out in front of Jinwu,
just leave quietly.
Honey.
Do I have to sue you?
Am I the only one to blame?
None of this is your fault?
So...
You want to take this to court?
If you're going to keep me and Jinwu apart,
then I don't have a choice.
What's going to happen to Yeonhui?
It's in attorney Jang's hands. It'll be okay.
Even if they get a divorce
his mother won't give Jinwu to us.
We have to get Jinwu no matter what.
You make it sound so easy.
If you weren't so stubborn back then
Yeonhui would be happy right now.
Mom.
Eat and go to work.
Are you all right?
Don't worry about me.
Junhui.
Take care of your mom and Yeonhui.
About the company...
Do you know?
Everybody knows.
I'm fine.
Don't worry.
Focus on your own work.
Okay.
We can't get this lawsuit dropped.
You may have to pay compensation.
What about the stock price?
I stopped the reporter,
but rumors are spreading
about the fake contract and the false report,
so the stock price is dropping.
I reported the paper company to the police,
but they were using fake identities.
Plus they're out of the country.
You said you knew Lee Hwayeong?
Yes.
Is she really Lee Donghyeon's sister?
Yes.
I...
I created this mess myself.
I'm sorry, sir.
If I had paid more attention
I could've stopped her.
No.
There's no one else to blame.
This is all my fault.
Hwayeong's got it all wrong.
She thinks you killed...
What do you think?
Do you think I killed Lee Donghyeon?
No, sir.
Why did you want to see me?
Are you here to give me what I want?
Yes.
When are you leaving the house?
Hwayeong.
You said you love him, right?
Then be with him.
But in return,
just let me be Jinwu's mother.
What are you talking about?
Convince Byeongguk to let me keep Jinwu.
Jinwu is just a boy.
He needs his mom.
Who's his mom?
How are you Jinwu's mother?
I brought him into this world.
He came from my womb.
Isn't it Byeongguk that you want?
I can't live without Jinwu.
Please try to understand me.
For our innocent Jinwu's sake.
If you let me raise Jinwu,
I won't ask for anything.
Take whatever you want.
But please let me have Jinwu.
I'm not giving you a single thing.
Especially not Jinwu.
Yeonhui.
If you leave, everything will be solved.
You're being stubborn.
Wouldn't you agree?
Mr. Lee.
What?
Yeonhui asked for Hwayeong's address?
Yes, President Gwak.
I don't know why.
I will call you back later.
Hello, Grace Lee.
You must've been talking to Ms. Gwak.
Yes. We had business to discuss.
Was that really a business call?
What else would we be discussing?
Mr. Lee.
Who do you actually work for?
Why do you ask?
Apart from reporting my daily activities,
you don't seem to do any sort of work.
Why don't you leave the company?
You're getting quite old.
Was that really a business call?
No.
Then?
Ms. Baek called.
She asked for your address.
That's all I told President Gwak.
Yeonhui asked for my address?
Yeonhui did?
Yes.
She called Mr. Lee
and asked for Hwayeong's address.
I don't know what she's up to.
Just let her be.
I'm sure she has her own plan.
She was acting strange this morning.
Don't you think so?
Really? I didn't think so.
I'm worried that she might
do something completely irrational.
Huija.
She's smarter than anyone I know.
Let's wait and see.
Jinsuk.
Ms. Jeong.
What is it, Chef Bae?
Have you been well, President Gwak?
I'm not sure.
Your niece is giving me a headache.
I'll leave you two alone. I'll return later.
Why are you so mean to him?
It's embarrassing.
When are you going to fire him?
He may be your chef
but he's also Lee Hwayeong's uncle.
Lee Hwayeong is irrelevant!
That has nothing to do with him being a chef.
Chef Bae is a great cook.
You know that.
I'm not going to fire him.
I kept quiet since it's not my business
but Byeongguk and I come here often.
Think carefully and figure this out.
Professor.
What is it, Manager Lee?
Is it good?
Yes.
Chef Bae,
the man who's dating Ms. Jeong,
prepared this steak.
I just lost my appetite.
This steak is just like me.
It's been abandoned.
The moment you stood by my side
Standing beside me
I loved your eyes then
I loved them
Though I cried tonight,
tomorrow, thanks to you...
Who's that?
Who is it?
Ms. Bae.
How dare you come here?
Leave. Get out!
Wait. Wait.
So then...
You're Donghyeon's mother?
I told you to leave!
Chuja, don't be so rude to your guest.
Please listen to what I have to say.
Ssangsun, I'm sorry, but...
I get it. I'm leaving.
Ma'am, good luck on your discussion.
I'm sorry that I didn't come sooner.
All I can say is that I'm sorry.
After Donghyeon died,
I planned on coming here
but I was too traumatized back then.
Please leave.
My Donghyeon...
He's not here anymore.
Why are you here?
I came to beg for forgiveness.
Forgiveness?
How dare you?
Who did Donghyeon die for? Who?
Take a look.
This handsome man.
If you seduced him and got pregnant
you should've lived happily ever after.
Why did you get him killed? Why?
Why?
Hwayeong was totally right.
If it weren't for you and your family
Donghyeon wouldn't have died.
Forgiveness? Don't be ridiculous.
How can I forgive a murderer?
Why didn't you kill yourself?
You should've died along with him.
If you'd died,
Hwayeong wouldn't have gone this far.
You wouldn't have lost your husband
and had to kneel like this.
I'm sorry. I'm so sorry.
I'll spend my whole life making up for it.
So please...
Please help me.
I can't live without Jinwu. I really can't.
Please stop Hwayeong.
I know that Hwayeong
is headed down the wrong path.
But I'm Donghyeon's mother.
No matter how much I pity you,
for my late son Donghyeon's sake,
I can't help you at all.
Please leave now.
I'm home.
Hello.
- Sora. / - Please leave!
Sora, go to your room.
What are you doing here?
Is Jinwu okay?
Go to your room!
Okay.
Please leave.
Hey, Seongbin.
What? My dad's company's in trouble?
How? Is it bad?
The investment we made...
It's all gone.
Why?
You partnered up with John Moss, right?
Well...
It was a paper company.
How can that be?
My dad's very careful about his business.
How could he have been deceived?
It was a sure deal.
All our data was perfect.
He put up his stocks as collateral
and got a loan for the investment.
I don't think he can get out.
He's overleveraged.
If he can't pay back on time
he may lose his position.
Oh no. Poor dad...
Yeonhui.
I didn't want to tell you this, but...
That paper company.
Lee Hwayeong introduced it to your father.
What?
How does Lee Hwayeong know dad?
I don't know exactly,
but I think she approached him on purpose.
I didn't know she would go this far.
No way.
How did she get to my dad?
Seongbin, how is my dad doing?
Is he about to collapse?
We're doing all we can. We'll have to wait.
This can't be.
No. No way.
Mom, what's wrong?
It's nothing.
Hwayeong.
Come have a seat.
Hwayeong.
How long do you want to live like this?
What are you talking about?
Did Baek Yeonhui come here?
I just think this is wrong.
So please...
I told you to stay out of this.
She looked so frail.
She begged me and pleaded.
I felt so heartbroken.
Of course, when I think of Donghyeon
I get bitter and upset,
but if I were in her shoes...
Then what?
Did you forget already?
It's her fault our family became like this.
Hwayeong.
Stop talking. Be quiet.
Baek Yeonhui
I heard you came to my house.
What is it now?
Let's talk.
Do you want a drink?
Figures.
You're too classy to drink.
That's new.
That was cool.
Yes, I admit I was wrong.
That's why I kept begging you.
I begged, pleaded, cried
and begged some more.
So?
If you ask me to get on my knees, I will.
Or do you want me to die?
My brother is dead.
What did you say?
Do I want you to die?
Fine. Just die.
What did you tell my mother
with that angelic-looking face?
Did you manage to fool
my aging, soft-hearted mother?
How long do you think I'll hold back?
How long do I have to wait?
You stole my husband,
became my son's surrogate mother
and now you're taking Jinwu.
Now you're going after my father?
They call him the venomous snake.
But he's not.
He's so soft.
President Baek was a lot of fun.
He won't be president for much longer.
What?
He won't be president for much longer.
Tell him to enjoy
the little time he has left.
President Baek.
The venomous snake.
President Baek.
Yes, I'm done standing around.
You called me a devil with the face of an angel.
I will show you
what that devil looks like.
I'm sorry, dad.
It's all my fault.
I heard everything.
Lee Hwayeong did this to your company.
The stocks that President Baek owned
may all end up somewhere else.
He would be bankrupt.
Please help my father.
Didn't he just sign a contract
with John Moss?
The investment money is all gone.
Byeongguk is still
dating that woman, right?
It's just an affair.
I'm sure he'll come back to you.
Sign the paper.
It's the divorce papers
and a form giving up custody.
You hate me that much?
Think carefully.
Will you pick your father or your son?
