(Episode 99)
What's wrong, Mom?
Is there something you need to tell me?
Jun Ho...
isn't Ha Neul's father.
What...
What?
Ha Neul...
Ha Neul isn't Jun Ho's son?
Is that true, Mom?
Yes.
Mom, what's wrong?
Mom, open your eyes!
Mom!
- Please move aside. - Ma'am, please move.
Ms. Seo.
I need Ativan! Now!
What happened? Is she okay now?
We gave her a sedative.
We'll need to keep an eye on her.
Why did she suddenly go into shock?
She suddenly remembered the accident.
She tried to tell me what happened.
Like I told you before,
it's important that she gets absolute rest.
So don't give her any unnecessary stress.
- Please be careful. - Okay, I will.
Okay.
Mom, are you okay?
Stop trying to remember what happened.
You don't need to try and remember.
Okay?
Yu Na.
So that's the secret you wanted to hide?
You did this to my mom...
just because she heard about your secret?
Hey, Jae Kyung.
I urgently need to talk to you.
Can you meet me at the hospital?
What...
What do you mean?
Ha Neul isn't Jun Ho's son?
No.
My mom heard about that in the emergency exit.
That caused things to get physical...
and caused my mom to fall down the stairs.
Yu Na is unbelievable.
The evidence that Mr. Hwang wanted to give to us...
was probably regarding this.
That means...
Yu Na lied to her husband and everyone else too.
Does that also mean...
she fabricated the DNA results?
That's what I don't get.
How is that possible?
In order to prove that my mom's telling the truth,
there needs to be another DNA test.
Do you think I should tell Jun Ho?
No, not yet.
If he finds out about this, he'll tell Yu Na.
Then who knows what she might do again to survive?
She might even try to harm Ha Neul.
Then what should we do?
We need evidence to disclose the truth.
Let's do the DNA test ourselves.
What?
I have Ha Neul's toothbrush at home.
We just need Mr. Jang's specimen.
We should secure the evidence ourselves...
and disclose the truth.
Okay, let's do that.
Ha Neul...
isn't your son.
You're not Ha Neul's biological father.
I'll soon be marrying Ha Neul's biological father.
Why are you trying to keep him...
when you're not even his real dad?
Ha Neul.
- Have you been well? - My goodness.
Why did you buy this?
You didn't have to bring anything.
Come sit down.
What made you visit?
I figured you'd be worried about the chairman.
So I dropped by to comfort you...
and tell you that you should stay strong.
I can't believe you came to pay a visit...
when you surely must resent me and Jun Ho.
I feel so ashamed of myself.
It's all in the past.
Miss.
Oh, right. She went grocery shopping.
I'll bring you some tea. Wait here.
It's okay.
No, it's the least I can do.
It won't take long.
Okay, then.
I'm going to go use the bathroom.
Sure.
I've never done this kind of thing in my life.
They might not look nice, but please acknowledge the gesture.
Thank you for this.
I think I'm getting punished.
What?
I feel like I'm getting punished...
for how much I mistreated you.
Don't say that.
I just hope nothing worst happens.
How is Seo Woo doing?
She should be showing by now.
Maybe it's because she's so skinny,
but it doesn't really show yet.
Both Seo Woo and the baby are healthy.
Really? That's a relief.
I bet she resents me.
She doesn't.
She's old enough to know that you only said those things...
out of concern.
I should get going now.
Why? You can stay for a bit longer.
No, it's okay. I wish you good health.
Bye.
I brought doom upon myself.
What's this?
I'm giving you an early wedding gift.
I'm giving it to you to free myself from guilt,
so please don't refuse.
I'm giving it to you so I can sleep comfortably at night.
Sir.
Did you take them to the research lab?
Yes, I asked them for the results as fast as possible.
Even if what my mom said turns out to be true,
we might not be able to do much...
if Yu Na gets elected as the chairman.
In the end, it's their family matter.
If the chairman wakes up,
Yu Na will be left helpless.
But I doubt he'll wake up before the shareholders' meeting.
I'm so worried.
There's something I haven't told you yet.
What is this?
The chairman gave it to me.
(Transfer of stocks)
(Transferor: Jang Cheol Yong, Transferee: Do Yeon Hee)
(Number of stocks: 150,000, Total amount: 12,210,000 dollars)
The chairman gave you this?
Yes, it was our wedding gift.
I was going to tell you about it during the honeymoon.
But I couldn't because of my mom's accident.
I don't know how many shares Yu Na has,
but we have enough shares to threaten her.
I feel like the chairman gave me those shares...
because he foresaw this and wanted me...
to help him protect Lara Group.
Let's tell Mr. Seo about this.
We should all gather together and come up with a plan.
Ms. Do, you own seven percent.
My wife and I own five percent altogether.
Jun Hui and Seo Woo own four percent.
That's 16 percent in total.
I don't know how many shares Ms. Kang owns personally.
But Jun Ho owns about 15 percent,
and that will go straight to her.
So we're pretty much neck and neck with them.
What matters is how many shareholders...
she managed to convince to vote for her.
Right.
I'm also trying my best to talk to the shareholders.
But I can't guarantee anything yet.
I'll start contacting golf players through the association tomorrow...
and ask them to vote for you.
I'm also going to meet my VIP clients...
and ask them for support.
In the end, Ms. Ko will be our last variable.
Jun Hui's trying to convince her to vote for Mr. Seo,
but I'm pretty sure she'll end up voting for Yu Na.
She probably thinks Yu Na becoming the chairman...
is the only way Jun Ho will get a chance to return to Lara.
Yes, I see what you mean.
The shareholders' meeting...
might be our last chance to stop Yu Na.
Let's do our best to stop her.
Please don't tell anyone that I own seven percent of the shares...
until the big day.
We need to make them put their guards down...
by making them think they're at an advantage.
Okay, I'll keep it confidential.
I wonder if Jun Hui's conversation with her mother is going well.
Why should I support Mr. Seo?
If I'm going to vote for anyone,
it should be your brother.
Jun Ho doesn't have the right...
to run for chairman.
He had to step down because of the slush fund incident,
and he's getting investigated by the prosecution.
There's no way to vote for him.
Even so,
how can you ask me to vote for Mr. Seo?
Then what?
Are you going to let Yu Na take over the company?
You know what? I should step up.
What?
I'll run for the position myself.
Mom.
What's wrong? Do you think I can't do it?
Your father is hospitalized,
so I should step up and protect the company.
Mom, this is just wrong.
We're not voting for some kind of class president...
or the leader of a women's society.
Are you looking down on me?
Just get ready...
to help me get elected once I register as a candidate.
Do you understand?
Mom, if we don't help each other,
Yu Na will take over Lara.
I'm not happy about the idea either.
But Yu Na's a better choice than Mr. Seo.
That way, Jun Ho will get to return to Lara one day.
At least that's what I think.
Mr. Seo isn't a member of our family.
So why should I vote for him?
At least Yu Na is our family.
Gosh, this is so frustrating.
Mom, do you still not know Yu Na...
after all that you've been through?
Do you not know her at all?
My gosh, stop being so loud.
I don't have that many shares left anyway.
Why? Don't you own around seven percent?
You know how I lost three million dollars...
by investing it in an illegal private equity fund?
After that incident, Yu Na asked me to support Jun Ho,
so I transferred 50 percent of my shares.
Now,
I only have two percent left.
What?
She's been working under the table ever since then?
Gosh, this is bad.
She might even own Jun Ho's shares by now.
Gosh.
I'm not going to tomorrow's shareholders' meeting.
I'm going to stay neutral, so just keep that in mind.
Mom, come on.
Here is the list of shareholders that will vote for you.
Okay.
You and Mr. Jang own a total of 15 percent altogether,
and we managed to gather ten percent.
So we've secured 25 percent in total.
How many shares do you think Mr. Seo has secured?
We're guessing around ten percent.
They can try their best, but it'll be impossible for them...
to gather over 25 percent until the shareholders' meeting.
- Are you sure? - Of course.
As long as Mr. Seo doesn't find a white knight,
you're in a much favorable position than he is.
Don't worry.
It's not over until it's over.
We shouldn't let our guards down.
Yes, of course.
I miss my dad.
Let me go see him.
Child depression?
That's absurd.
He doesn't have depression.
It's probably just a temporary reaction...
from the shock he experienced when his grandfather collapsed.
I took him to the hospital hoping that'd be the case.
What is this?
It's what Ha Neul drew during his therapy.
(My dad)
Do you still not get it?
So what? What's your point?
There was nothing I could do,
so I told him to text me if he ever wanted to talk.
He misses his dad.
He says he wants to visit his dad.
Where are you going?
We can't just give him what he wants.
Are you really going to send Ha Neul to Jae Kyung?
We have no other choice.
Our kid is dying inside.
Are you saying we should just ignore that?
No.
Even so, we can't send him to Jae Kyung.
It won't be forever.
It'll just be for a few days so he can be at ease.
We should at least do what we can to make him talk again.
What if he insists on staying there?
What will you do then?
Ha Neul is your son.
Why would you send your son to that man?
Whatever the case, we need to do what we can for Ha Neul.
Ha Neul barely eats,
and he doesn't even sleep properly.
I'm worried something bad might happen to him.
I'm going to take Ha Neul to Mr. Han's place tomorrow.
I've made up my mind.
Ha Neul, are you ready?
Ha Neul.
Aren't you ready yet?
Let's go if you're ready.
There you go.
- Ha Neul. - Dad.
Let's go inside.
Were you worried about your grandpa?
Like I said, he's going to get better.
Your parents allowed you to stay with me for a while,
so you can relax.
And feel free to tell me whatever it is...
that's been bothering you.
- Okay? - Okay, Dad.
The house feels different.
Oh, I tried to change the interior.
Don't you like it?
I love it.
Ms. Do cooked a delicious lunch for you.
- Should we go over to her place? - Sure.
- Welcome, Ha Neul. - Hello, Ms. Do.
Have you been well?
Yes.
But where's Ms. Seo?
She's a little sick, so she's at the hospital.
Is it bad?
No, she'll be better soon.
Don't worry about it.
- Ha Neul. - Seo Woo.
It's been so long, right?
- I missed you, Seo Woo. - Me too.
Seo Woo, can I take a look at your room?
Sure. Let's go inside.
Come on.
He's such a bright kid.
Why do you think he stayed quiet at his parents' house?
He must've been really distressed.
You resent me, don't you?
You think I'm all about work...
and that I don't even care about my husband or son.
It's true.
Jun Ho, you really don't know me.
I'm really trying my best to get elected...
as the chairman.
But every time you're like this,
it makes me think I'm doing this for nothing.
What's wrong?
The shareholders' meeting is tomorrow. Are you not confident?
It's hard to guarantee anything.
Are you at a disadvantage?
We'll only know once the results come out.
It'd be great if I could get your mother to vote for me.
But she's not happy with me right now.
So I can't even ask her.
I told you that I'm going to stay neutral.
Mom.
If Min Koo becomes the chairman,
I won't ever get a second chance.
I know Min Koo is Dad's right-hand man,
but he's not related to us by blood.
The moment he becomes the chairman,
he'll have Yu Na fired.
Then the company will fall into his hands.
Don't you understand?
I understand.
But do you really trust Yu Na?
What do you mean?
Judging by her past behaviors,
I don't know if I can trust her.
She might take over the company...
and refuse to give you the position.
Mom, she's Ha Neul's mother.
She's the mother of your grandson.
So please.
Do your son a favor...
and come to the meeting to vote for her.
I'm going to trust that you'll show up.
Mother, did you sleep well?
Stop it.
I already have a headache.
Mom, think about it carefully.
The future of Lara...
depends on the choice you make today.
I only own two percent.
Why is everyone so obsessed over it?
Let me just live a quiet life.
My goodness.
Mom, I love you.
Get away from me.
Father.
Do you know what today is?
Today is the day I become the owner of Lara.
Aren't you happy for me?
I don't need you to congratulate me,
so I hope you stay unconscious...
for as long as possible.
What's going on?
- We have a variable. - A variable?
We just heard...
that there's a white knight who supports Mr. Seo.
A white knight?
- Who? - We're not sure.
But according to our sources,
that person owns as many shares as you do.
You're telling me that now?
Last night, you told me that we're easily going to win.
It might not be an easy win, but we'll still win the vote.
I guarantee that.
Let's go.
- Are you ready? - Yes.
Don't be too nervous.
We did our best.
So let's leave the rest to the skies.
Hello?
You have the results? Okay, I'll be right there.
Did they finish the DNA test?
Yes.
I'm worried about the results.
That's also up to the skies.
Good luck today.
(Lara 27th General Shareholders' Meeting)
Ms. Do, what are you doing here?
I'm obviously here for a reason.
It looks like you're here to congratulate Mr. Seo in advance.
You should wait outside.
I'll make sure he doesn't meet your expectations.
Sure. Whatever you say.
(Lara 27th General Shareholders' Meeting)
Ms. Do turned out to be...
the white knight I mentioned earlier.
What?
What did he just say?
Yeon Hee is the white knight?
It was your father.
My dad?
She owns seven percent of the company shares.
Who do you think gave that to her?
Where's your mother?
You said you'll convince her.
Let's wait. I'm sure she'll come.
According to Article 103 of the company policies,
we will begin the general shareholders' meeting...
for the election of Lara Group's chairman.
Our candidates are Mr. Seo Min Koo, our former CEO,
and Ms. Kang Yu Na, our current acting CEO.
And we will begin the voting process.
Please check the ballot paper in front of you.
(Lara 27th General Shareholders' Meeting)
A total of 52 percent...
voted for the election of a new chairman,
which exceeds the majority.
Now I will announce the result.
Mr. Seo, our former CEO, has received votes...
that amount to a total of 26 percent.
Next is Ms. Kang, our current acting CEO.
She has received votes...
that also amount to a total of 26 percent.
They've tied.
The voting isn't over, right?
(Test results)
(Lara 27th General Shareholders' Meeting)
Here are the final results.
The new chairperson of Lara won the election...
with votes that amount to 28 percent of the shares.
(Lara 27th General Shareholders' Meeting)
Ms. Kang Yu Na, our acting CEO, has won the election.
Congratulations.
Congratulations, Yu Na.
(Jang Jun Ho, Jang Ha Neul)
(Jang Jun Ho has...)
(a 26.6 percent chance of being Jang Ha Neul's father.)
(Amor Fati)
Mr. Hwang was Ha Neul's biological father?
Don't get too shocked by what you're about to see.
It's what we both expected.
I'm going to put an end to Yu Na.
Yu Na.
There's nothing that can stop you now.
How does it feel to be standing on top of a pyramid?
It's hard to explain in words.
Enjoy it while you can.
