(Episode 117)
One person will inherit everything?
I can't believe this!
That's enough. Dad will hear you.
That's not important now.
He totally blindsided us!
Honey. It really isn't you, right?
Don't tell me...
you're hiding it from me.
Of course, I'm not.
Why would I lie to you?
Clearly, we can rule out the two of us.
Exactly, that is the biggest problem right now.
Someone is about to steal our forest.
Who could it be?
Who is stealing the entire forest from us?
Is there anyone that comes to your mind?
How would I know when even you have no idea?
Hold on. How could you be so calm?
Is this someone else's business?
Why do you always act like this doesn't concern you?
Because I know that we can't change Dad's mind...
no matter what we do.
He's already determined to update his will.
This is the second time, so he can change it again.
We must find a way.
I've been trying so hard to protect this forest.
I refuse to give up like this.
I need to use my brain.
I must find a way.
Yes, okay.
Yes. Then I'll see you around lunchtime tomorrow.
Bye.
Who was that, honey?
Chairman Bang. He will visit my office tomorrow.
Chairman Bang?
Yes, he'll drop off some abalone porridge for you.
I thought Seok Gu was joking, but he wasn't.
I am grateful,
but is it okay for us to accept it?
He said he'd stop by to take care of a few other things too.
He asked you to join Bangsoo Construction's legal team.
He must think highly of you.
You think so?
Anyway, pass on my thanks to him, honey.
Okay, I will.
What? You'll come to the office?
My goodness. Quiet down, will you?
Why would you come to the office? You said you quit your cleaning job.
I never said I was going there to clean.
I must catch the thief.
The thief?
Yes. The thief who is trying to steal Father's assets.
What will you do though?
First, I'll speak with Mr. Kim. Then I'll target the executives.
The thief must've been coaxing Father. I'll find out.
Forget it. Mr. Kim won't tell you anything.
Right. Even last time, he told Father on me right away.
Mr. Kim, you're out.
What?
Just don't get kicked out.
Also, what will you say if people ask you why you're in the office?
I'll come up with something.
So don't worry about a thing and just get to work safely.
I'll take care of everything.
How can I not worry? My goodness.
Come on. You should know me better by now.
You need to lose weight. You can't even button this.
Goodness. It's meant to be worn like this.
(Bangsoo Construction)
All the important documents must be kept in the chairman's office.
How can I sneak in?
I have to step out after I finish going through the report,
so take care of the rest...
as per my instructions.
Yes, sir.
Should I have the car ready?
No need. I'll take the subway.
Yes, sir.
Going up.
Doors closing.
Where is he going alone?
I bet it has something to do with his will.
My gosh!
My Gangnam sister-in-law, what did you say? His will?
Well...
My gosh. Did you say one person would inherit everything?
Yes, that's right.
By the way, I don't want to be seen...
by Mother or Professor Kang.
Oh, they're both very busy today.
They won't be here until lunchtime, so don't worry.
You're sure, right?
Yes, of course.
Anyway, if you're sure that it's not Hyung Do,
then who's getting Mr. Bang's assets?
I wouldn't be here if I knew the answer to that question.
I must catch that thief.
I will catch that thief a serious lesson.
What if I'm that thief?
What?
Are you going to kill me?
There's no way it's you.
Why not? Why aren't you suspecting me?
Well, first off,
he has no reason to choose you.
There is zero probability.
If he chose you,
you wouldn't be working as a parking attendant here. Right?
My, look at you.
You actually have pretty good reasoning skills.
But I can't help but feel a little insulted and offended.
Well, let's be honest. You're not qualified.
My Gangnam sister-in-law, I used to be a global entrepreneur.
Right, I heard.
Then what about Nam Gu?
Professor Kang Nam Gu?
He could be considering Nam Gu as his heir to the throne.
Did Professor Kang say something?
Come on. If he did, I wouldn't be here now.
I would've started working on my business plan right away.
Right, that's true.
My goodness. I'm so curious.
Who hit the jackpot?
Well, Seok Gu.
Help me catch the thief.
Me? Why should I help you?
What do you mean?
If my husband inherits everything,
he won't neglect you.
You're like his adorable little brother.
Right. Of course, he won't.
Just think about a complete stranger...
taking all our money.
Then we won't get a single penny.
Exactly.
So you want to strike a deal with me.
That's right. If we join forces,
we'll surely be able to find out who this thief is.
Then what about Nam Gu?
He could be considering Nam Gu as his heir to the throne.
Right, it's not impossible.
No way.
Actually, what if this is all part of Cho Hee's plan?
Yes.
I should talk to Cho Hee instead of wasting time like this.
What's with that look?
Do I have something on my face?
Nam Gu, are you hiding a secret from me?
A secret? What should I be hiding from you?
Right, Nam Gu could never lie even when he was little.
When he lies, even his ears turn all red.
Then...
What?
Did you eat rotten food this morning or something?
Mom, you used to collect bags from that luxury brand...
in every color.
What was it called?
You mean, Uromes?
Yes. They just launched a new collection.
You should check it out, Mom.
Hey, I said goodbye to my Apgujeong days long ago.
Why would I buy such expensive bags?
One of the things I regret the most...
is spending so much money at those designer boutiques.
Stop talking nonsense. Just eat your lunch.
- Thanks for the food. - No problem.
My mom loves nice things.
Had she been the one inheriting such a large fortune,
she would've run to the designer boutiques at once.
If it's neither Mom nor Nam Gu,
then who is it?
Hey, eat your food. What are you mumbling about?
Don't mind me. It's nothing.
You fool.
Mom, did Mr. Bang have to step out again for a meeting?
He couldn't eat with us because he went to Attorney Seo's office.
Attorney Seo's office?
That's right. Abalone porridge.
Mom, I'm skipping lunch today.
I should hurry.
What's with him?
No idea.
(Cometome)
(Chief Director Seo Cho Hee)
Your office is much bigger than I thought.
Cho Hee, when will you be done?
I'm not sure.
The deadline is today, so I'm very busy right now.
Look at her acting busy.
Is she trying to avoid me?
Anyway, what brings you by?
Cho Hee, I wanted to...
I mean, I wanted to consult you on something.
What? You wanted to consult me?
Yes, come in.
Ms. Seo.
Mr. Ko.
Oh, you have a guest.
Yes.
What's the matter, Mr. Ko?
It's about the ad draft we sent to Ruru Pharmaceuticals.
They like it but want to change a few details.
What? They called you directly?
They did. Anyway, can you check as soon as you can?
Yes, will do. Don't worry.
All right. Thanks.
You're welcome.
- Take care. - Bye.
Hey, Cho Hee.
Ms. Yeo?
Yes, it's me.
I'm calling about Ruru Pharmaceuticals.
What? You knew?
Then come to my office for a minute.
All right.
Cho Hee!
I'm sorry, Won Ju. I need to wrap this up.
Why don't you go downstairs and have a cup of coffee?
No, it's okay.
I won't take up your time.
Just answer this one question that I have.
What is it?
Cho Hee. About Father's will...
His will?
Apparently, Father said one person would inherit everything.
Did you know?
This is my first time hearing it.
Yes, come in.
- Ms. Seo. - Ms. Yeo.
Oh, I'm sorry.
It's okay. Come on in.
I read the email.
I think Ruru Pharmaceuticals wants to showcase the sense of mundanity.
So? What do you think we should do?
We should meet with the team right away.
I told everyone to come to the meeting room.
Really? Great. Then let's go.
Yes, Ms. Seo.
- Let's go. - Cho Hee.
Where are you going?
I'm sorry, Won Ju. Let's talk another time.
We have a bit of an emergency at the moment.
What? Are you telling me to just leave?
I'm sorry, Won Ju.
And as for the inheritance...
Like I said the other day,
it has nothing to do with me or my husband.
We're not even interested.
You're sure, right?
Yes. Get home safely, Won Ju.
- Let's go, Ms. Yeo. - Yes, Ms. Seo.
What is going on?
Can I really trust her or not?
She ignored me again.
Seo Cho Hee...
(Seo Kang Rim Law Office)
(Attorney Seo Kang Rim)
You made this?
Not by myself.
The entire family made it together.
- Thank you. - No problem.
The expectant mother must stay healthy.
Make sure she eats well.
Hold on. What's taking him so long?
Who?
Good to see you, brother-in-law!
What took you so long? You said you were picking up coffee.
I ran into my cousin.
I got held up because I had to help Pa Ran decide what to eat.
What are you doing here, Seok Gu?
Come on. Must you hurt my feelings like this?
Am I not allowed to come here?
Did something happen between the two of you?
You two seem very uncomfortable around each other.
No, sir.
Don't lie. Something did happen.
Something huge.
"Something huge"? What happened?
Well, a petty-minded lawyer...
served me with a restraining order.
Then that petty-minded lawyer must be...
Yes, that's right.
(Sisters Side Dish)
Jang Geum, try this.
It's seasoned webfoot octopus. I used my new recipe.
Here.
Thanks.
It's good. It's like the perfect appetite booster.
Really? You think so?
Yes. This will become very popular.
My gosh, really? Then starting tomorrow...
We should give some to our regulars for free so they can taste it.
Sounds good, Poong Geum.
Just a moment, Poong Geum.
Who is it that she has to take the call upstairs?
Yes, Oh Jang Geum speaking.
Okay.
I'll arrive at the hospital on time.
Okay.
(Bangsoo Construction)
What took you so long?
I had to step out to collect some intel.
Have you found out anything new?
No. I went to gather some intel as well,
but it was a waste of time.
Nothing's easy in life.
What about you? Where did you go?
I went to meet Attorney Seo with Chairman Bang.
What? There's no intel to gather from Attorney Seo.
You're clueless.
That stingy man...
bought such expensive abalone and even made porridge with it...
for Attorney Seo's wife...
when they don't share a single drop of blood with him.
Don't you think it's weird?
Right. He keeps doing things for Attorney Seo and his wife.
It is odd.
Exactly.
People might think that Attorney Seo is his son.
No way.
My husband is his son, and I'm his daughter-in-law.
I know that.
But here's something even more suspicious.
Chairman Bang and Attorney Seo...
are both allergic to abalone.
They can't eat abalone.
In other words, they could be genetically related.
What do you think of my hypothesis?
What is it, my Gangnam sister-in-law?
I'm getting a bad feeling.
That's right.
In the conception dream I had for Sun Hae,
Father gave me a crystal ball.
So that went to Sun Hae through Cho Hee?
Then that conception dream was...
Conception dream? How random.
No. It was a prophetic dream, not a conception dream.
I foresaw this crisis in that dream.
Gangnam sister-in-law, what are you talking about?
Hyung Do, there could be a secret that we don't know about.
For example, what if Attorney Seo is Hyung Do's half-brother?
Half-brother?
If that's not the case, why is Father so attentive toward him?
Father has never been that affectionate toward Hyung Do.
Then,
do you think Attorney Seo is the heir to the throne?
Yes. That's my conclusion.
Father finally found his secret son.
I see.
The pieces of the puzzle are finally falling into place.
No, this can't happen.
Goodness. Calm down.
Right now, it's just speculation.
Let's find solid evidence first.
Evidence?
Yes, solid evidence.
Solid evidence?
Seok Gu, why must I find Attorney Seo's hair in the office?
Listen carefully, you brat.
This is a very important matter regarding his DNA.
Regarding his DNA?
Anyway, I'm entrusting you with this important task,
so make no mistakes.
Do you understand?
Whatever.
Will you keep being this uncooperative?
Tell me why you need his hair.
Pa Ran, how many times must I tell you?
It's top secret.
Whatever. He'll think I'm crazy if I get caught.
I'm busy. I have to go.
Hey! Pa Ran!
What should I do?
Should I sneak in myself?
My goodness.
Hold on. The long one must be Mother's.
The shorter one must be Father's.
Perfect.
Focus.
Hello, Mother. How have you been?
Of course, I haven't been well.
You said you'd send Jae Min home.
Why aren't you keeping your promise?
I am trying to persuade him, Mother.
Then why did he get his own place?
Did you tell him to get a place...
so the two of you could move in together?
No. I swear I didn't.
Okay. Let's meet.
I'd prefer to talk in person.
Are you available tomorrow?
Yes, I am.
Okay, sure.
I'll meet you there, then.
Hi, Bo Ri. It's me.
Nam Gu.
Why don't you come to the office if you aren't busy tomorrow?
I'll buy you lunch.
Tomorrow, I can't.
Jae Min's mother wants to meet.
Oh, I see.
Will you be okay alone?
Of course, Nam Gu.
Call me if anything happens, okay?
All right. Rest up, Bo Ri. Bye.
Nothing will happen, right?
Here, I've completed my mission. What about you?
Did you manage to get your hands on Attorney Seo's hair?
I'm sorry.
You're sorry? What do you mean?
You said you were confident.
The spy I planted in his office betrayed me.
I thought about sneaking into his office myself,
but he's a ruthless attorney.
I don't want to be sued...
for breaking and entering or something like that, you know.
I was a fool for trusting you.
Forget it. I'll figure it out on my own.
Oh, wait.
What?
Just because this mission failed,
it doesn't mean I'm giving up on this project.
We can look for an alternative.
An alternative? Like what?
Well, that's...
We can start thinking about it now.
What?
Seok Gu!
No, please. Don't get worked up. Calm down.
"Calm down?"
What's he saying?
Gosh, whatever.
Figure out another way, then.
You see...
(Chief Director Seo Cho Hee)
Yes, hello.
Sorry? Our apartment?
I see. Okay.
Okay.
Honey, I'm home.
Honey?
Hey.
Honey, did you get home just now?
Yes. Where is Ri An?
She's studying at Pa Ran's place.
I see.
Honey.
What is it?
Did something happen at work?
Our apartment has been sold.
The landlord called me when I was at work.
The apartment has been sold?
Yes, apparently.
I see. Finally, this happened.
Honey.
Where do we go now?
