(Episode 12)
I'm giving you the anesthesia now.
(Operating Room)
Go back inside.
You must keep the promise you made with Ms. Cha. Go back inside now.
I heard the baby's heartbeat.
I can't do it.
I just can't.
You must.
But how?
How can I, with my own hands,
kill the child growing inside me?
How?
I can't do it.
I can't do this, even if it kills me.
(Ms. Lee)
(Chairman Cha Hwa Yeong)
Her surgery just ended.
Make sure word doesn't leak from the hospital.
Yes, Ms. Cha.
Do you know how big a lie I just told her?
I do.
If Ms. Cha finds out, I'm as good as dead.
The baby inside you has died today.
So never come by the house...
regarding the baby.
Never, understood?
Yes.
I promise.
I shall take my leave.
Ms. Lee.
Thank you.
I will never forget this.
Your things have been sent to your parents' place.
Good bye.
It's okay now.
It's all over.
I will protect you.
And...
I will love you twice as much,
enough to fill Dad's void.
Soo Yeon, this is bad!
What's going on?
Auntie is getting discharged.
Gosh, Young Ji. That's good news, not something bad.
Think, Soo Yeon. Look around the house.
It's covered with seizure stickers.
Auntie will collapse from the shock when she sees them.
Both Dad and I are looking into it, so we'll be able to resolve it soon.
What's the point? There aren't any places we can get money from.
Her discharge is next week.
Putting that aside,
what are the big pieces of luggage in the storage?
Come on, what are they?
Let's talk about it later.
You fought with Jin Woo, didn't you?
That's why you packed up and came home, right?
To be honest,
we're going to get a divorce.
What did you just say? A divorce?
Hold on a second. So you're here...
not to look after Auntie but because you got kicked out?
Keep it a secret from Mom and Dad for the time being.
It's best not to shock Mom right now.
Okay.
(Available for Lease)
Hey, Yoon Chul.
Were you able to borrow any money?
I see.
No, it's okay.
(Kim Yoon Chul)
(One Heart Association, Chairman Ko Mi Sook)
You have a guest.
Who? Our business hours are over today.
Just tell the guest to come next time. Let's just paste.
I said we should just paste on this guest. Don't you understand?
It's "pass."
Tell the guest yourself.
"Pass."
Please take your time.
I've been receiving the ten dollars...
you transfer every day like a daily installment loan.
But you're not here to do that, are you?
What do you want?
As you saw last time,
I stood surety for a friend using my store and house as collateral.
But that jerk cut all contact with me.
He must've run away. It's obvious.
I get the picture already.
Just tell me the amount.
If I could borrow 200,000 dollars...
I'll give you the deed to the house as collateral...
once I get it back from the bank.
Please trust me and...
Stop spouting nonsense!
I was confident that I was a good judge of character.
But apparently, I didn't.
I saved a man in trouble,
and he came back, asking for a whole lot more.
Look here.
I thought you were a good man, but I was completely wrong.
How can I trust you and lend you 200,000 dollars?
The deed to the house that isn't even in front of me?
Goodness.
Now that I look at you,
you seem to have a knack for scamming people.
I have nothing more to say. Leave.
Mr. Ko, our guest is leaving. See him out.
This way, sir.
What's so important about friends?
You're driving your family onto the streets!
You can't even look after them! And yet, you want me to lend you money?
My precious money?
Goodness, do you think it was easy to save up that money?
How dare he speak of such absurdity?
How infuriating!
Mr. Ko!
Bring me a bucket of ice!
For goodness sake.
If only he hadn't reminded me of Dong Ha's dad.
I could only prepare 5,000 dollars.
But it's still a lot for me.
Thanks.
I'll pay you back as soon as I can.
Got it.
But it's funny to see a daughter-in-law of a rich family...
asking for money.
Isn't a few thousand dollars petty money for you?
Hey, I was only joking. Goodness.
Can you get in touch with Tae Hoon?
Tae Hoon?
I did ring him up a few times, but he didn't answer.
He even quit his job all of sudden. Something must be up with him.
Do you know where he lives?
No. But why?
Do you know anyone who would know?
I'm not sure.
Hey, Soo Yeon.
I saw a tabloid rumor about you and Tae Hoon.
It's not true, is it?
I mean, the hotel and whatnot. It's ridiculous.
It's not, is it?
Nothing happened. Trust me.
Right. As long as you say so.
I better get going now.
I have a meeting.
I'll ask around for Tae Hoon's home address.
Thanks for your help.
Okay, then I'm off. I'll keep in touch.
(Father-in-law)
Drink.
Thank you.
I heard your mom's surgery went well.
Yes, she's getting discharged soon.
You've grown thin since I saw you last.
I heard you were getting a divorce.
Is it true you suggested it first?
Don't forget what you agreed to.
If you break a single promise,
I'm going to publicize your confession.
Then everyone will know you as a woman who cheated on her husband.
Yes, Father.
I'm sorry to disappoint you.
It seems Ms. Cha is involved.
I asked to see you for two reasons.
First, I took care of your family's debt to the bank.
So don't worry about it.
- No, Father. - Don't feel burdened.
Consider it my last kindness to you.
I can't accept it, Father.
How can I?
I didn't do it because you are my daughter-in-law.
It's in return for supporting me in many ways...
while you lived here.
Yes, think of it as repayment.
You helped me every time I suffered from my panic disorder.
And your warm words cheered me up...
whenever I couldn't paint like I used to.
Soo Yeon.
Forget your pride.
Think of your parents.
Thank you, Father.
I won't be able to right away, but I will pay you back.
Mommy!
Seo Jun.
Why did you come so late, Mommy?
I missed you so much.
Me too.
I missed you...
so much too, Seo Jun.
Mommy's sorry.
They paid off their bank debt?
How?
Why aren't you answering me?
Did Jin Woo help them?
No, it wasn't the president.
I think it was the honorary chairman.
Mommy, sleep here with me tonight.
Okay? Promise me.
Seo Jun, Mommy has to leave.
No. Do you have to?
Then I'm coming with you.
Let me come with you, Mommy.
Do you remember what I told you?
Grandma is a bit sick.
So I need to take care of her.
But if you come with me, I can't do that.
I'll be a good boy.
I want to come with you, Mommy.
You always do as I say, right?
Mommy will come back once Grandma gets better.
Stay with Daddy until then, okay?
I don't want to.
You said you'd listen to me.
I'll look after Grandma and come back as quickly as I can.
Do you promise it won't take long?
Welcome back, Ms. Cha.
Where is my husband?
He's in his studio.
Those shoes in the entrance. Do we have a guest?
Ms. Lee.
Well...
What's going on, Ms. Lee? Why is she in my house?
- Mother, I... - Shut it.
Go back to your room, Seo Jun.
Go, Ms. Lee.
Young Master, let's go.
Come on.
You're out of your mind, aren't you?
How dare you sneak into my house?
I asked her to come.
You...
Don't make a big fuss.
Don't worry about Seo Jun and go.
We need to talk.
There's no need. Go ahead, Soo Yeon.
But I have to talk to her.
Talk to me.
Seo Jun missed his mom, so I called for her.
It was for Seo Jun.
And it's nothing for you to get mad about.
I'm done explaining. I'm going back to my studio.
That's not enough.
Can you forgive her?
She cheated on Jin Woo.
Didn't I tell you it was for Seo Jun?
That's what I'm saying.
How can you let him meet that piece of trash?
Mind your words.
She's filthier than trash.
I hate even mentioning her.
If it's for Seo Jun, you should help him forget about her quickly.
And you shouldn't let her inside the house for Jin Woo's sake. Aren't I right?
Do you have lingering attachments?
Do you want them to get back together?
And what if I do?
Don't cry over spilled milk. You can't undo it.
Is that why you paid off her family's bank debt? Is it?
Contrary to your story, she didn't take any consolation money or alimony.
It's in place of that.
Lawyer Min told me they were still talking.
Since you gave it to her, we can end it there.
This is for the better.
Do you remember what you said to me about not being involved...
in Jin Woo's divorce?
I do.
What about it?
What is it that you want to say?
Stop being annoying and tell me.
As you said, the milk has already spilled.
It's no use going over what's right and wrong now.
Let's stop here.
Ms. Lee.
Yes, Ms. Cha?
Who do you think you are?
What do you think you're doing, running the house like this?
You should've told me first when Yoo came.
You should've kept her from coming in!
I'm sorry, ma'am.
I was so flustered that I didn't have a chance to call you.
She was already here when I brought Seo Jun home from kindergarten.
If something like this happens again, you're fired.
Get it together.
Yes, ma'am.
The second child. You made sure to take care of it, right?
Yes, I made sure of it.
Report to me immediately if anything like this happens again.
Yes, ma'am.
You're looking for a new bed for your son who's studying for an important exam?
Yes. He's sitting at a desk for long periods of time,
so his back is starting to hurt.
In that case, I think this bed will be perfect for him.
Go ahead and try it out.
This bed helps improve posture,
which can enhance focus when studying.
I see.
- One moment, please. - Sure.
- Does it feel nice? - It's awesome.
Hello?
Auntie is home from the hospital?
Okay. I'll be right there.
- Does that feel nice? - Yes, it does.
Gosh. It's so nice being home.
I can even get a massage from my husband.
I'm proud of you for getting through it, Mom.
I'm so happy that you came home so healthy like this.
- Auntie, you're back? - Yes, I am.
All three of you...
went through so much...
to take care of me this whole time.
It was no problem at all.
Soo Yeon. Don't you have to go back home?
But I feel bad sending her home with nothing.
Should I go buy some fruit at least?
That sounds good.
- Let's go together. - Stay here.
I'll go on my own.
Goodness. You don't know how to pick out good fruit for a good price.
I know how to find a good deal.
Soo Yeon. Do you think Korean beef would be better than fruit?
I'm going to stay here for a while.
I'm just going to stay until you feel better, Mom.
Gosh. What about Seo Jun?
Also, it's not good for you to be apart from Jin Woo for this long.
Just go.
Auntie. She wants to stay here, so just let her.
Even if she goes back home, she'll be too worried about you...
to do anything.
What if you become sick again?
How do you think Soo Yeon would feel?
That's true,
but her parents-in-law must be waiting. She should go.
That's what I'm saying.
I feel so bad.
Gosh, Auntie.
It's not like you got sick on purpose.
Why do you feel bad?
I'll stay for just a little bit longer.
You'll be alone after Dad and Young Ji go to work.
That's true.
It'll be nice for you if Soo Yeon stays for a few days.
Of course, it'll be nice...
That's enough, then.
Stay here.
Okay. Then stay here for a few more days.
How is the divorce going?
The consideration period is over, so we'll find out about the ruling soon.
You don't have to go yourself. Send Attorney Yoon.
I'll handle it.
By the way,
did I mention that I gave her alimony?
No. You did?
She threatened...
to go to a news outlet about our family's private affairs...
if I didn't give her money. So what could I do?
Nothing good can come of that kind of press,
and I thought it'd be best for Seo Jun to quietly end things as well.
So forget her.
How can someone completely change overnight?
She was always like that. We got fooled because we were too naive.
Just consider it an unfortunate accident and forget it.
It'll only hurt you more to keep thinking of her.
I'm sure she'll go and find another rich guy to marry...
and live happily.
That's how poor people are.
They approach naive people like us, trying to take whatever they can.
We're defenseless against them.
That's why people care about family backgrounds.
Look at Yu Ra.
She's so nice and innocent. She's so easy to talk to.
Don't you think so?
You're so pretty.
Give me a spin.
Honey, one second.
That's a nice one.
- Can I post this, Yu Ra? - Sure.
I have to say goodnight to my fans.
(Hong Jin A, SA Group, Influencer, Model)
Done.
Yu Ra.
Don't men usually like younger women?
It all depends.
There are many attractive older women too.
No way. What if they have tons of wrinkles?
Medical procedures can take care of that.
I'm sure they have the wealth and power to date younger men.
Madonna. Demi Moore. They're famous.
Oh, my gosh.
Is that wrinkly lady really my rival?
Is the guy you like attracted to an older woman?
Yes.
Yu Ra. How can he possibly like her...
instead of me?
I'm serious. Don't laugh.
I'm upset.
What are you worrying about? You can take him from her.
How?
What is that lady's style like?
She looks cheap.
Cheap?
She looks cheap,
but she also looks very glamorous somehow.
Then maybe that guy finds her style...
strangely attractive.
It could be a sort of fantasy he has,
or she could be his ideal type.
Jin Woo.
Can you get up? Jin Woo?
Why did you drink so much?
Don't be so tormented over a woman like that.
She's not suited...
to live in this house nor with you.
I'll help you forget everything.
Are you okay?
I'll bring you some honey water.
I'll be right back with it.
You have to let go of my hand so I can get it for you.
What happened?
Don't you remember?
No.
You came home very drunk last night.
I helped you get in bed. I was about to leave,
but you grabbed me.
You didn't let go.
I meant to leave after you fell asleep, but I accidentally fell asleep too.
I'm sorry. I was really drunk.
Did I perhaps...
Nothing happened.
You just...
held me warmly.
I'm sorry I keep making these mistakes.
It's okay. You were very drunk.
I could've pushed you away,
but I wanted to stay like that.
(Plans to Establish US Branch)
Proceed with it right away and make sure there aren't any issues.
Yes, ma'am.
Do you really think we need the rights to Louis Laurent for all of Asia?
Don't you think that's too much?
They offered us exclusive rights in Asia because they trust us.
Do you want to pass up such a great opportunity?
We need to focus on establishing the US branch.
The directors will be against it.
I'm sure.
They're always busy opposing me...
even though I'm the one who pays them.
Forget it. You don't need to deal with those old cowards.
How are we going to make the down payment if the directors don't approve?
I'm going to get the funds from an investor.
This is a good chance for you to learn.
It's important for an owner to be able to find a reliable investor.
Do you already have one in mind?
You must always have a plan B.
Step.
Switch.
I'm so lonely.
I was told that President Hong asked for a list of overseas investors.
I made sure that our company would be on that list.
SA Group will soon reach out and ask for a meeting.
Get ready.
- Did you look into the other investors? - I'm almost done doing so.
Make sure we're well-prepared.
We have to offer them the best deal.
One SA Group can't refuse.
Yes, sir.
I'm going to head straight home after a meeting.
So you head home early too.
Save your energy. We're really getting started now.
Petitioner Hong Jin Woo and Respondent Yoo Soo Yeon...
are now divorced.
The parental rights and custody of son, Hong Seo Jun,
go to the petitioner.
My attorney's going to file the divorce papers today.
- Seo Jun... - You no longer have rights as a mother.
You gave up your parental rights and custody of Seo Jun.
Don't say his name again.
I'm going to tell you one more time, so listen carefully.
Seo Jun is no longer your son.
You don't have any legal rights.
Don't you dare meet or contact Seo Jun.
I'll kill you myself.
- Honey. - Get your dirty hands off of me.
You disgust me.
Are you crazy?
What do you think you're doing?
Do you understand what you almost did?
You almost ruined my life...
while trying to ruin yours. Do you get it?
(Gold Mask)
Today is the start of a new life for Jin Woo.
Is divorce something we should celebrate?
Here. Take it.
It's hard not to care about rumors.
Chairman, my foot. She's just a loan shark.
It seems you really hurt Chairman Cha's pride.
What's wrong with Soo Yeon?
It has nothing to do with me.
- What do you mean by that? - We got divorced.
Is what Jin Woo said true?
Did you really get divorced?
