I switched the herbal tonic when Ga-eun was pregnant.
I locked her up in the elevator and caused her miscarriage.
I even locked her in the elevator again to teach her a lesson like you asked.
If Ga-eun finds out about this...
If she finds out that her miscarriage wasn't an accident...
This might hurt her more than ever.
What am I supposed to do?
Hello, Kim Mi-ran. It's Ha Jae-bum.
Why'd you want to meet? Get to the point already.
Would you like something to drink?
What is it you want to say?
What is this?
Give it a listen.
I switched the herbal tonic when Ga-eun was pregnant.
I locked her up in the elevator and caused her miscarriage.
I even locked her in the elevator again to teach her a lesson like you asked.
What is it you want from me?
Think you can arrest me with something like this?
Fine, call the police.
Do it.
Kim Mi-ran, just stop already.
My objective is not to have you punished by the law.
I wanted to give you one last chance.
Last chance?
Go apologize to her.
Apologize to her sincerely and ask for her forgiveness.
Why should I?
Why should I have to ask her for forgiveness?
Did Ga-eun drink that tonic? Did I push her down the stairs?
Why blame me when she fell down on her own accord?
Didn't you lock her in the elevator?
Why would I? I didn't lock her up.
Evidence like this can be fabricated.
Show me the proof that I did all this on purpose.
I see why you're so upset about Ga-eun's miscarriage.
You want to defy Chairman Maeng and marry Ga-eun, but she says no?
She rejected you because she can't have children.
And now you're mad, is that it?
Kim Mi-ran!
I see there's no point in trying to talk to you.
I wanted to have a real, honest conversation with you.
I want to cut the ill-fated tie between you two and help her find peace.
I want to put an end to her revenge.
But seems too many lines have been crossed already.
That ill-fated tie can't be cut.
Do you have any idea how much she's hurt me since we were little?
People always compared us and I was pushed aside.
I was always insanely jealous and pessimistic about my life.
You have no idea.
My life could've been much brighter if not for her.
All my unhappiness is her fault.
Stop blaming others and think about what you did wrong.
My only sin was to love Jung-woo. Don't back me into a corner.
Do what you want.
If you want to take me to court, go ahead and do your worst!
Why! Why isn't there any?
Liquor! Liquor! Where is the liquor!
Why isn't there any liquor!
Mi-ran, what's wrong with you?
Honey, buy me some liquor, quick. I'm going crazy.
I emptied all your bottles.
Don't ever drink again. You promised you would quit!
Please, honey. Please give me some liquor!
Mi-ran, don't do this.
Na-ri's mom, I want some water, too.
I want you to go to the hospital tomorrow.
Jung-hee, go with her, okay?
Okay.
Honey, I'm sorry.
You won't leave me, will you?
What? Is that all you have to say?
The company's on the verge of collapsing and you're of no help.
It's me.
Yes, I sent some stuff that'll help Ga-eun recover her health.
There's no need. Ga-eun's doing just fine.
And she'll be home tomorrow.
Is that so? That's good.
I'll have Capt'n Yeo clean her room and have a meal ready.
Will you accompany her?
Um, the thing is, Chairman.
Yes? What is it?
It's not long until the wedding, but I'd like to keep Ga-eun here.
What?
She was so adamant until now that I couldn't persuade her otherwise.
But I want her to prepare for marriage on my own.
I see.
I'm sorry I didn't tell you before.
I'll send my youngest to pick up Ga-eun's stuff.
Please try to understand me.
Okay. We'll do that.
What is it?
I found out where Madam is.
Where?
She's at President Park Jung-woo's house.
What?
She went straight to his house after she left the hospital.
And she came back to her mother's tonight.
What total nonsense is this? Are you sure about this?
Yes, I'm certain.
Exec. Director Ha doesn't know either.
Alright, I'll ask her about it myself.
Yes, sir.
You're of no help!
I don't want to hear it.
Until when do I have to put up with your crap?
I won't be thrown away like this.
I need something that'll stop Jung-woo from abandoning me.
What can I do?
Mr. Kim, it's me. Can we meet?
I want to talk about the safe. It's urgent.
Kim Mi-ran and Kim? These little...!
You've been working together?
I want an answer to my question.
I asked you last time.
Where does he hide the company's confidential files?
Is there even a secret safe?
Ma'am, you're putting me in a difficult position.
Mr. Kim, I'm Julia.
I'm in a bit of a rut but I'll regain my position as VP of Star soon.
I understand.
I'll tell you since you want to help the company.
The safe is underneath your husband's desk in his office.
It is?
Ma'am, out of loyalty to your husband, I'm treating you with respect.
Please stop bothering me from now on.
Okay. Thank you.
If you keep calling, I will tell your husband.
Why do you keep asking about the company's confidential files?
I really don't know anything.
Hello, Mr. Kim.
Is that so? You told Mi-ran where the safe is?
I did as you said. As expected, President Park followed me.
Alright, good job.
Mi-ran, you're about to touch Jung-woo's most prized possession.
Where is it? Where did he put it?
With this I don't have to worry about being kicked out any moment.
Jung-woo won't be able to mistreat me anymore.
H-honey.
What do you think you're doing?
It's not what you think, honey. I came by to have lunch with you...
You think I'd believe that lame lie?
You have to believe me, please.
I just happened to see your safe and was curious about its contents.
I can't believe you, Kim Mi-ran!
I was totally blind.
You're the one I should've watched out for, not Ga-eun.
You dare try to control me with my weakness?
I won't put up with you anymore.
I filled in all the details. Just sign the papers.
You're determined to divorce me, is that it?
I've forgiven you one too many times.
The many attempts to ruin the company. The lies and the bad parenting.
I forgave it all.
Do you know why?
All because you're Na-ri's birthmother.
But I won't stand for it anymore.
Don't act like you're the only one who made sacrifices.
What?
So you no longer need me, is that it?
That's all I meant to you, huh?
I won't ever divorce you.
You can't force me. I won't!
I won't divorce you. I refuse.
I'm gonna stick by your side until I die.
No, I'll watch you even in death to keep you in line.
Divorce? Like hell.
How was your business trip?
I was worried, but you look fine.
I'm sorry for worrying you and making you cut the trip short.
That's what fiancees do.
- Truthfully, I'm disappointed in you. - Excuse me?
If something happened, I thought I'd be the first to know.
But you were abroad and I didn't want to worry you.
Sir, dinner is ready. Come eat, Madam.
Alright.
You'll stay with your mother until the wedding?
I came in to nurse you and your injured leg.
You're all better now and my mother's lonely.
Were you so uncomfortable here?
Chairman, I don't mean...
As long as you weren't.
Let's eat.
Take time off work until the wedding.
I'll decide that.
No, that won't do.
What are you implying?
I've put too much trust in you.
It occurred to me you might leave if you get what you want.
Why would you think that?
You keep too many secrets from me.
I used to have a handle on you but not anymore.
You know where I've been staying.
Park Jung-woo.
Staying at your ex-husband's house was going too far.
That's unforgiveable, even for me.
I had a reason to go there.
A reason?
Did you find evidence that'll help you take over Star?
Of course you did.
I don't think you went to his house because you like him.
Someday you'll have control of Star Fashion.
But that'll be after you marry me.
I shouldn't have gone to his house without telling you.
I'm sorry if I offended you, but -
That's enough. Let's eat.
I can't get married like this.
What's that?
I don't to be forced into a marriage where you don't trust me.
Our marriage will help build that trust.
I want to take some time.
Seems I've been trying too hard to please you.
You'll end up marrying me.
I don't think you came to me because you love me.
We're more like good business partners.
But I won't let you leave after getting what you want.
I've never let go of anything that came into my hold.
Chairman.
Keep one thing in mind.
If you avoid this marriage, the people around you will get hurt.
The person who is closest to your heart will get hurt.
I imagine Jae-bum is at the top of that list.
Don't force my hand.
What happened?
Kim Mi-ran! Hey!
Just let her sleep.
Today was full of utter chaos.
You weren't home and Mom was acting up.
I had to hold Na-ri close. You know how scary it was?
She did this in front of Na-ri?
I can't believe this.
Bro, this is the last straw. She's gonna cause big trouble.
Na-ri's a different matter from us. We can't let her see this.
We can't leave her at home anymore.
You have the hospital diagnosis that says Mi-ran is an alcoholic?
Yeah.
No one's here. Baby, hurry, hurry.
Jung-woo and Jung-hee probably went to work, right?
Is Mi-ran still sleeping? It's the middle of the day.
She probably had another drink last night.
Speaking of which, she drinks like an alcoholic.
Please, come in.
Jung-woo, what are you doing home at this hour?
We're the two guardians. We waited to give our permission.
Where's the patient?
That room. You can go in.
Wait, Jung-woo, I'm not following. Who are those people?
Please stop coming by since Mi-ran won't be home anymore.
Consider this the last time we meet.
What are you saying?
I know you don't think too well of us.
But you can't say such things to your mother- and father-in-law.
We won't freeload anymore, okay?
What are you doing? Who are you?
Mi-ran!
Your husband and sister-in-law have agreed to your hospitalization.
We'll take you safely to the rehab center.
What? Rehab center?
Jung-woo, are you insane?
Are you doing this because I refuse to divorce you?
I'm not going! I won't!
Let go! Let go of me! I'm not going!
Mister Cho, don't just stand there. Go help Mi-ran!
Yeah, okay.
Wait, excuse me. Let's talk about this. Let go of her.
Please step away.
What are you doing? Why should I go?
I won't go in!
Mi-ran!
Let go, let go of me!
I'm sober! I'm completely sober!
- Mom! - Mi-ran!
Don't do this.
Open up! Open the door! Mom! Mom!
They're treating her like a mental patient.
Baby. Baby!
Baby, wake up.
Baby, what's wrong?
Park Jung-woo sent Kim Mi-ran to a rehab clinic?
I understand.
Lawyer Lee is here.
Let him in.
Welcome, Lawyer Lee.
Hello.
- Did you find anything? - Here's the data you asked for.
I only had time to find out about the chairman and his family's shares.
Is this all?
These are all the shares that are public and can be found.
I suspect he has more shares hidden in someone else's name.
And...
And?
I suspect his frequent business trips are being taken to launder money.
He's taking his funds out to the foreign branch.
This is just what I suspect. There's no evidence so far.
Please look into that more carefully.
I will.
It's me.
Sir, terrible news. Please come to the office now.
What? What are you talking about?
What?
The guys came back to the office?
Okay.
Tell President Park to come.
It's been a while. Why isn't he here yet?
Did he take off with my money?
Please don't do that. You shouldn't do this.
Please calm yourselves.
President Park, what are you gonna do about my money?
What the hell do you think you're doing in my office?
What are WE doing?
What the hell are YOU doing with our money?
Gonna skip out on paying the interest AND the principal?
The deadline's today, you know. So give me my money.
What are you talking about? How can you demand the principal?
If you had paid the interest on time, we wouldn't be doing this right now.
Who'd lend you money when you've lost everything in that PJ investment?
So I want my money NOW!
You're obstructing our work. Leave before we call the police.
I don't care about that.
Please stop!
Break it all! Break it apart!
What happened to you? You didn't answer your phone.
Did you feel pressured because we have to sell the land?
- Is that why...? - First, I have to show you something.
What is this?
This is...
The double books you kept in your safe.
Tax evasion, embezzlement. You wrote it all down so neatly.
I could tell exactly what you've been up to.
Yoo Ga-eun, you... you...
Don't I have amnesia? Of course not.
Think it's so easy to lose your memory?
How does it feel to be betrayed by the person closest to you?
Enough of your nonsense!
You can't do anything to my company with this.
You thought wrong if you think this gives you control over my company.
I guess I have no choice but to prove you wrong.
I'll take the original with your handwriting to the prosecutor's office.
You'll do what?
Are you afraid to go through exactly what Sung-eun did?
Ah, I guess it's not exactly the same.
My brother was framed for the embezzlement you committed.
He never even saw that money.
Yoo Ga-eun.
This is my final proposal.
I need Paulo Luca's shares if I want Sun Apparel back from you.
Unfortunately for you, you didn't find information on him in the safe.
Yes, I didn't.
If you give me information about him, I'll give you back your books.
You know you can't handle all the debt on your own.
So make a choice.
Go to jail for falsifying your accounts or hand me Star and disappear.
You dare try and take Star from me?
Star is my life.
Sung-eun died from a heart attack in a cold prison cell because of you.
My father died from shock because of you.
You approached me to marry me and then cheated on me with Mi-ran.
Then you had me adopt Na-ri and stole my father's company.
You killed me time and time again, yet you only value your life?
Your father was incompetent. And it's your fault for loving me.
Not mine!
If that's your choice then I'll pay you back the same way.
Either rot in jail or end up on the streets. Whatever happens, don't resent me.
You brought everything on yourself.
