(Episode 41)
You shouldn't get so nervous already.
Bit by bit,
slowly, gradually,
I will steal your soul.
Just wait.
How interesting.
This isn't like you.
It's amusing.
It'll be worth a fight.
It's thrilling and exciting.
I'll look forward to it, Hye Soo.
You'd better prepare well.
You'll beg me to let you go,
to rather kill you instead.
What did you do that day?
How did you get this?
Does it matter how I found it?
What you did that day is more important.
Hye Soo's accident. Were you behind it?
I said no.
Then explain this video.
I thought that if In Ha woke up and Hye Soo got out on parole,
they'd expose what had really happened to In Ha.
That I'd done it.
So what?
Were you going to hit Hye Soo?
I wanted to but I couldn't do it.
What?
It felt like Sarang told me not to do it.
But, Mom...
I saw the accident happen.
Who did it?
Did you see the driver's face?
It was a truck.
It was so shocking and it had happened in an instant,
I didn't see the driver.
But...
But?
Ji Ho was at the scene.
Se Young, you must tell me the truth.
Are you sure it wasn't you?
It wasn't me.
I at least have no reason to lie to you.
You're the only one on my side and the one to save me.
If I were guilty, why would I hide it?
I'd have asked you for help.
What about you?
What?
Was it not you?
Se Young.
How could you say that too?
Me "too?"
Does someone else suspect you?
Hye Soo...
believes I set it up.
Someone made it look like it.
What's the likelihood the accident...
was staged by your mother?
My mom?
She tried to help her leave with In Ha.
Every person has two faces.
An angel and a devil exist in every one of us.
You grew up only seeing her angelic side.
Ji Ho?
No, there's no way.
I thought it was you.
Why?
That day, three years ago.
I knew you were meeting Hye Soo for dinner.
Did Ms. An tell you?
If Hye Soo got out, the truth that I'd hurt In Ha would come out too.
Ji Ho, you, Dad, and the chairwoman covered it up,
and it could've threatened the company too.
Even so, how could I hurt Hye Soo?
I thought you had at that time.
Because I saw Ms. An at the scene.
What?
You saw Ms. An at the scene?
She walked up to Hye Soo who was losing consciousness...
and said something to her. I'm sure of it.
"This is the end for us."
"In the afterlife, forget my face..."
"and my name."
"This is the end for us."
"In the afterlife, forget my face and my name."
"Rest in peace."
Hye Soo said...
I left her that message.
You couldn't have.
You were at the restaurant at Green Hotel at the time.
You have a great memory.
You still remember my schedule from three years ago.
I serve you loyally...
and I believe in being very thorough.
You're excused.
The only people who can control her...
are me and the chairwoman.
Ma Hyun Duk.
Was it you?
What is it?
Vice-chairwoman Seol suspects me.
Ms. An.
You should...
go somewhere on holiday.
Now that you met Ji Ho too,
how do you feel?
It got much clearer.
What I must do...
and whom to aim at.
Do you really believe...
Ms. Seol tried to hurt you?
As of now, I think that's most likely.
Seol Yu Gyeong, Yoo Ji Ho, and Joo Se Young.
I came back to make them wail in regret.
You'll get hurt as well.
If I'd feared that, I wouldn't have thought of coming back.
I'll make them pay 10 times, 20 times, 100 times over.
Okay.
I'll help as best I can.
We can't do it on our own.
We need a support system.
A support system?
Your support system...
can be none other than me, Ma Hyun Duk.
A support system.
Why should I, though?
I must see the chairwoman.
She went to the annex.
To speak with her grandson?
Ms. Jung's there as well.
Hello, Ms. Seol.
Hye Soo's here too?
Yes.
She has something to say to my grandma.
I was tactful enough to excuse myself.
Vice-chairwoman Seol Yu Gyeong.
I'm impressed.
You'll be chairwoman soon.
Why should I be your support system?
What causes do you have?
I'll become your sword...
and take out Seol Yu Gyeong for you.
What?
She is Cheonha Group's vice-chairwoman...
and my long-time assistant.
Hasn't she been a nuisance for a while?
I will crush her for you.
I'll replace her with In Ha, the person you love the most.
How can you do that?
As Jung Hye Soo, I'm a nobody.
But as a woman whose birth mother abandoned and even tried to kill her,
I can become a sword that fears nothing.
If you were to offer me your help,
I'll become an even stronger sword.
Even if the target is my birth mother,
I will not let her off lightly.
Do you also think...
I tried to hurt Hye Soo?
The accident happened...
while Hye Soo was on her way to see you.
Someone had to have known which road her taxi would've taken.
I also find it suspect that all the traffic cameras...
in the area were down as if an accident was expected.
Anyone planning the accident could've taken care of that, not just me.
That's true.
At the time, quite a few people wanted Hye Soo gone.
That goes for the chairwoman as well.
You suspect my grandmother?
The person who wants to make me look guilty.
I think it's her.
If that's true, who really did it?
Seol Yu Gyeong.
How dare you slander me?
Ma'am.
Why are you framing me?
What?
Why did you make it look like I hurt Hye Soo...
and sent Ms. An to give her a message?
I did not.
It was Ms. An who passed me your message?
Ms. An is your secretary.
You used that fact against me.
Mr. Ko!
Bring Ms. An over immediately.
She got a call that her uncle in Manhattan had died.
She applied for leave this morning.
What on earth...
Ms. An is an important part of the puzzle and she suddenly disappeared.
She takes orders...
from both Ms. Seol and the chairwoman.
She could've done someone else's bidding.
I know someone who might be able to give us an answer.
Who's that?
Please help me out, Mr. Ko.
If this is about the accident from three years ago,
I have nothing to say.
You told me that Ms. Seol's my birth mother.
I don't remember doing so.
He asked me to kill him instead.
He won't answer.
You know where Ms. An is, don't you?
She's at her uncle's place in Manhattan.
You know a lot about Ms. Seol, don't you?
Why would a woman want to harm her biological daughter?
Do you think she believed...
she'd stay successful and happy if her daughter were dead?
How could she do that and call herself a mother?
It wasn't Ms. Seol. I'm sorry.
I'm the person who changed your life.
The see-through look and mini flare dress...
are all trends from the previous season.
Drop them.
The slip dress is the best so far.
It fits nicely and looks sexy.
How about cargo pants?
They got great reviews during fashion week,
and more than anything, the flip pocket is practical and hip.
The Y2K fashion is making a comeback.
The century-end look.
It's true that we can't ignore trends,
but I think that's a far cry from Cheonha Fashion's ideals.
Can't we find something more refreshing?
How about a catsuit?
I like that idea.
A cat costume as an everyday look?
I'd be impressed if one in a hundred people would buy it.
Let's look for something more commercial.
Director Joo.
Ms. Jung said she gave you her book of designs to go through.
Did you throw it right into the trash again?
The board decides...
when and who to hire.
It has nothing to do with this meeting.
That's a good idea.
Let's discuss that at a board meeting.
Can we move up next week's meeting to tomorrow?
You bet we can.
Ms. Jung Hye Soo...
I can't wait to see her portfolio.
Talking to Se Young makes me ravenous.
It's a stress-induced binge, isn't it?
You need to get used to it.
What is Ms. Jung like?
Hye Soo?
Let me tell you about her.
She's my best friend...
and a hidden gem of the fashion world.
Thinking of her put me back in a good mood.
If you're in a good mood, why don't you treat us?
- Yes. - I'd love that.
- Let's go. - Yes, let's.
Guys.
Guys?
- Wow, look at this. - It looks amazing.
- How is it? - It has an amazing crunch.
The sauce goes great with the chicken.
- The sauce. - It's light and not greasy.
I could eat this every day.
I'm glad we came here.
- I made up my mind. - About what?
I'm going to quit.
- What? - Why?
I can't stand Joo Se Young.
And I want to try something new.
Gosh. You are darn incredible.
Gosh, thank you.
Eat up.
If it wasn't Mom, who was it?
Mom's cooking. Why don't you help her?
When Hye Soo was in the accident,
where were you?
It was three years ago so I'm not exactly sure.
I probably was in court.
Are you sure?
Think carefully.
Yes.
I heard of the accident as I was leaving court.
That's a lie.
Then how did I see you there?
What are you thinking about?
Someone who could turn my mom...
into a culprit to hide his crime.
Why do you keep coming to mind?
What are you talking about?
I thought about the predicament you were in.
If the truth of In Ha's accident came out,
your career as a prosecutor would take a huge hit.
You'd have feared that.
And your beloved...
I'm not sure if you still feel the same,
but you could've done it for me too.
Do you even know what you're saying?
I think...
you hurt Hye Soo.
Mom.
What are you doing?
You wench!
You're calling your husband an attempted murderer?
Do you think I'll let you?
- I'll kill you. - Mom!
Will you let go and talk instead?
No, over my dead body!
Mom, let go of her!
Don't do this! It's a misunderstanding!
You misheard her.
- Did I? - Yes.
Of course I did.
Who'd dare treat my son like a criminal?
Oh, gosh...
Mother.
Even if you misunderstood,
how could you be vulgar enough to grab your daughter-in-law's hair?
Yes.
Your vulgar mother-in-law...
gave birth to your smart husband.
Stop it, Mom.
You too.
Apologize for grabbing and pulling my hair.
As if I would.
You should apologize for yelling constantly at your husband...
and mother-in-law.
It's been three years and you still haven't given me a grandchild.
- Mom. - It's the truth.
What would I have done if I didn't even have Han Byeol?
I wish she'd go back to being the smiley, chatty girl she was.
Why doesn't she want dinner?
I guess she's in a bad mood.
Leave her alone. I'll feed her later.
(Secretary An Hee Young)
Joo Bum Seok speaking.
I was going to get really upset if you didn't pick up today too.
I'm going to lie low for a while.
I did first approach you...
on the chairwoman's orders.
But now I'm serious.
I want the love you have for Ms. Seol.
I hope you enjoy your trip.
Enjoy my trip?
Joo Bum Seok.
I'll see to it you track me down first.
Before Seol Yu Gyeong does.
What are you doing?
I'll stay with my parents for a few days.
Se Young.
- Let her be. - Mom.
We must put her in her place.
If you beg her to stay, she'll make it a habit of leaving.
Until she comes crawling back saying she'll never leave again,
don't go and bring her home.
You're back late.
Did something happen at work?
You look tired.
No. I just had a lot to do.
About Hye Soo's traffic accident...
I think the chairwoman was involved.
The chairwoman?
Goodness, Se Young.
What are you doing here this late at night?
What?
Ji Ho's mother grabbed you by the hair?
- Yes. - Goodness.
That's how lowly people fight.
How could she do something so vulgar?
Mom.
I can't spend a single day with her.
Then split up with Ji Ho.
- What? - If you can't live with his mother,
what else can you do?
That's nonsense.
I can't leave Ji Ho.
Not after what I did to marry him.
Do you know what you did?
How could I not?
I stole him from Hye Soo who'd lived with him for ten years and had his child.
And I ditched my ex-fiancé and his half-brother.
I did a lot of terrible things to Hye Soo as well.
For your happiness.
I considered her a daughter,
and I stole her husband,
her daughter,
and even made her an attempted murderer.
I'm sorry, Mom.
For me, your fake daughter,
you did all that to your real daughter Hye Soo.
That's what I did to you.
For you, I did everything you wanted.
So why aren't you happy?
I don't know.
That's what I don't get.
If only I could be with Ji Ho,
I thought I wouldn't care if I suffered.
Mom.
Why don't I feel happy?
Jung Hye Soo is back.
Now even you can't stop her.
She hates me the most...
and believes wholeheartedly that I tried to hurt her.
Mom.
You didn't, did you?
I said no.
You didn't either, right?
It wasn't me.
I swear.
Then it was definitely the chairwoman.
What did you do that made your wife pack up to stay with us?
I'm sorry. It's my fault.
From Se Young's point of view,
your mother isn't the average mother-in-law.
But from my mother's standpoint,
Se Young's not the average daughter-in-law either.
True.
If she were average, would you have fallen for her?
Of course not.
Se Young is special.
She's beautiful, alluring.
Like a swamp.
Is Ms. Seol like that to you?
She is.
She's beautiful, alluring, like a swamp.
Do you sometimes...
wish you could be free of her?
It's not me.
I fear my wife would want to be free of me.
Se Young suspects I'm behind Hye Soo's accident.
Shouldn't she believe me undoubtedly if she loves me?
Make her believe you if you love her.
You try first.
Make her believe?
(My dear honey)
I left three days ago and he hasn't called once?
Darn it.
No.
If I call him first, I lose.
Director?
Someone sent you flowers.
- You can go. - Okay.
They're beautiful.
I'm sorry.
I love you.
Cheonha Hotel's restaurant, 6 p.m.
Yoo Ji Ho.
- I'll leave you, then. - Okay. Good job.
I'm hungry. Buy me dinner, Ji Ho.
(Chief Prosecutor Yoo Ji Ho)
Somewhere secret...
and thrilling.
(Game of Witches)
She showed up in front of me with my husband for a date?
I warned you.
I said I'd take back what you took from me.
Jung Hye Soo, are you insane?
Ms. Jung Hye Soo here.
As honorary chairwoman, I appointed her as chief designer.
Why are you using Hye Soo to attack me?
Do you fear me?
Seol Yu Gyeong, you...
No one is powerful forever,
ma'am.
