Original subtitles

Darling, I'm your prey tonight.

My stepmom is really obsessed with sending women to my bed.

Did you come here willingly?

Mrs. Thorne sent me. She said you have trouble seeing and need a private care

for all your needs.

Private care?

Let's see what you've got.

Please don't.

Mrs.

Thorne, I quit.

I'm giving you every penny back.

She's completely insane.

That damn blind Hish. How?

What the hell is wrong with her?

Why the fuck can't anyone stay more than one night?

This one's even more pathetic than the last.

Stepmom. She gave up in tears before I even started.

It's so boring.

Next time, find someone bolder and more open-minded.

Try not to disappoint me again.

That freak.

I'm not letting her run the whole Prescott empire.

I need to plant someone on me.

You just took control of the family, ma'am.

This is exactly when you need to establish your authority.

I'm worried faking a crash and pretending to be blind could let someone

come after you.

If I don't show weakness, how will those hungry wolves hiding in the shadows bear

their claws?

Ivy, I want to catch them all and wipe out every parasite in the Prescott

family.

Serena, let's take our time.

Trained in professional nursing, drowning in debt, innocent and easy to

control. She could work.

Mike, set up a meeting for me tomorrow afternoon.

I want to see her.

Claire, I read your resume.

Nursing, first aid certif, straight A's, and I also looked into your family.

Your mom's sick, and you're buried in debt.

You investigated me?

My stepdaughter, Eleanor Prescott.

You've heard this name, I am sure.

She lost her sight in a crash two years ago. I need a private caregiver to live

in and handle her daily care. A private caregiver?

Exactly. And by care, I mean her physical needs, too.

Excuse me?

What do you take me for?

I'm not taking this job, sorry.

180.

That should just about cover your mom's medical bills and your student loans.

I can pay it all off in one lump sum.

Miss Bennett, don't be so quick to turn me down.

Do you really think money can buy everything?

Not everything.

But it can buy the choices of someone who's run out of options.

Miss Bennett, we've got your mom at home today. Pay up, or we do things the hard

way. At her age, one fall could put her in the hospital for six months, couldn't

it? Claire, don't.

Don't worry about me. Don't you touch her.

I'll figure something out. Just give me two more days. No way.

Today's the final deadline.

Pay up, or your mother's going to suffer.

$200,000.

And the extra is your first month's bonus.

When do I start?

Tonight.

She's blind.

She can't do anything to me.

I just have to do my job.

That's all, Claire.

It's just a job.

Don't be scared.

Oh, the new toys here?

Come here.

Closer.

You know why you're here?

Yes. So what are you waiting for?

Hand shaking like that.

Never done this before?

Never done it.

And you think you can handle me?

I've looked into it online.

And I've studied nursing.

I know the human body pretty well.

Please, just give me a chance.

I can keep learning and learn it fast.

Has Serena lost her mind?

She actually sent such an innocent girl to my bed?

Neil.

What?

Serena didn't tell you I'm a freak?

You are too stupid to follow a simple order.

Then get the fuck out of here.

If I quit now, I won't be able to pay back the debt.

And I'd have to pay Serena back double. Mrs. Prescott, please let me serve you.

Good girl didn't run away?

Interesting.

A little welcome gift.

Open it and put on a show for me.

Now? Mm-hmm. Right now. In front of me.

But I've never... You

can't even handle this?

I'm dying to know how the hell you had the balls to team up with Serena.

Alright, I'll show you once. Pay attention.

Oh, panty soaked already?

Please,

I can't.

I'm sorry.

Stop.

I know about your deal with Serena.

If you walk out that door tonight, you'll have to pay her back double.

How are you going to do that?

You can stay.

But here's the deal.

You are not just my private caregiver.

From now on, anything Serena asks you to do, you report to me immediately.

You want me to be a double agent?

You got a better offer?

I'll do it.

You really can't see?

Or what?

Yeah, she's really blind.

So, those people Serena said you tortured, that was all fake? Those

sounds? Recording. How else was I supposed to convince her?

Claire looks like a total rookie.

Don't tell me she'll come running down in tears before half an hour is up.

Why did it go quiet? Did she pass out from the torture?

What are you doing?

Scream.

Still

here,

stepmom? Or you wanted to join us.

You pervert!

There are clean clothes in the closet.

Pick something to wear.

So damn frampy.

This bedroom is huge, but there's not even a walk-in? Come on.

She can't see anyway, so what am I afraid of?

This jittery little thing.

How the hell does she have the gut to do this shit?

I'm done, Miss Prescott.

Take me to the bath.

Bath? You want me to take you?

Who else?

I'm blind and you're my private caregiver.

Are you expecting me to pull off something that difficult on my own?

Oh, okay. I'll take you.

Water is fine.

Can you manage on your own? Take them off me.

Bossy blind bitch.

Still acting all high and mighty.

Holy shit.

The boss of Prescott?

I'm in here bathing and actually touching her?

This can't be real. What are you thinking about?

Nothing.

Nothing?

Then why did you touch?

My breasts three times.

What, are you interested in my body?

Damn, do the upper class just say whatever the want?

Go ahead and touch if you like.

Why were her lips so soft? Like jelly?

I'm sorry, Miss Prescott. I didn't mean to.

I slipped it. I swear.

I... Get out.

What? I said get out.

Don't make me say it a third time.

Is she mad?

What if she changes her mind and fires me?

What about the money?

I can finish bathing you. Just sit still. Swear I won't mess up again.

I told you to get the hell out.

You deaf.

I'm sorry.

Eleanor, the Prescotts have enemies inside the family and out. Your mother's

crash. was an accident.

Dad, please don't talk and save your strength. When you're on top, everyone's

gunning for you.

Feelings will make you vulnerable.

If you want to stay in charge, you can never let yourself fall in love.

I promise.

I'll protect everything our family built and never let myself fall in love.

That's my girl.

No feelings, no weakness, ever.

Bella.

She actually fell asleep on the rug.

Innocent, naive, easy to control.

She's the perfect little spy.

Serena actually picked well this time.

I'm sorry.

Please don't send me away.

She's so scared of getting kicked out.

She can't even sleep right?

Don't go.

Don't leave me.

Damn it, why is it so hot?

Nothing happened last night.

Awake?

Yeah, I'm awake.

Why are you shaking?

How did you know I was shaking?

I can't see, but my hearing is a hundred times better than yours.

When you were shaking, the covers rubbed against the sheets.

It kept me awake.

I was a little cold. Yeah, cold.

Mary, bring up a clean set of women's clothes of bright colors in a size S.

And make sure they're bright.

Why do they have to be bright colors?

Who was standing by my closet, going through my clothes and complaining, so

damn frowncy last night?

Damn it!

If I'd known she could hear that well, I would have kept my mouth shut. I can

hear you even in your head, too.

Miss Prescott, your clothes are here. Come in.

Her face is so red.

Looks like it worked last night.

Tell Serena I'm very pleased with this one.

Yes, Miss Prescott.

I'll tell Mrs. Thone right away.

Get changed and come help me up.

What?

Miss Bennett, if you can't handle this job, go tell Serena right now.

I can do it. I can.

I'll figure it out. Just give me a sec.

Sorry.

This klutz.

Can she really take care of anyone?

Downstairs now.

Ma'am, something big just happened.

What happened? Did Eleanor do something to that girl? No!

Mrs. Prescott is very pleased with her. It worked last night!

Really?

Since that crash, Eleanor won't let anyone within two feet of her.

Except Bella and Ivy.

This girl, she's got something.

Not eating?

Or was last night just so intense it killed your appetite?

If I don't sit down now, who knows what else she'll say?

Miss Bennett, how come you don't have a single mark on you?

Uh, the marks are, well... Don't bother looking.

All the marks are on me.

That little darling you sent over was very eager last night.

She was biting and nipping at me all night.

What a natural on her first try.

You really taught her good.

Same trick you used climbing into my father's bed.

Eleanor, I'm your elder for God's sake. Can't you show me a little respect?

I'm only tolerating you because you're my elder.

Otherwise, you wouldn't still be here and have your breakfast.

Eleanor really is just as sharp-tongued as the rumors say.

She doesn't hold back with her words or her actions.

I'd better be careful not to get on her bad side.

And one more thing, you need to feed Claire up.

Her bones were digging into me when she was lying on top of me last night.

You were really the one who took the initiative last night?

She ordered me to serve her

Bella

I'm heading to the

office

So you really initiated everything last night?

You were in control the whole time?

Yeah. She can't see, so I had to, I just bit and nipped at her. Is that so?

But what I heard outside last night was you crying, moaning, and begging for

mercy. What's that about?

Uh, she likes things a little twisted, and it was my first time, so I couldn't

keep up.

Whatever. As long as she stays by Eleanor's side and feed me info, nothing

else matters.

Since she likes you, you'd better stay here and behave.

And anything happened, you have to tell me.

I got it.

I need to go home and explain to Mom.

Guess I'll be staying here for a while.

She'll be worried.

What is that noise?

What is that noise?

Oh.

Panties soaked already?

Oh my god.

Why am I reliving that?

Well, well.

If it isn't the one Mrs. Prescott favored last night.

I heard her screaming all night. The whole manor heard it. Actually, she

lasted till morning. What a slut.

Girls these days have no shame.

They'll do anything to land a rich man.

Don't make trouble.

I need this job.

Just swallow it.

Hey, newbie.

Don't think you're special just because you crawled into Miss Prescott's bed.

Around here, you're nothing but her plaything.

Seriously, with all the twisted things Mrs. Prescott does, aren't you sore down

there? You look fine walking, or are you just faking it?

Get out of my way.

Someone's feisty.

You think you are hot shit? Once Miss Prescott gets bored with you, you'll be

worth even less than we are.

Look at you, still wearing the clothes she tore up last night.

What, Mrs. Prescott, too broke to buy you?

A new top?

Don't touch me!

Do you have any idea who runs things around here?

We've worked here for three years.

Who the hell you do you think you are?

Let go of me!

Tell me, if I cut off your pretty hair of you, you really think Mrs. Prescott

would still look twice at you?

Don't you dare!

What do you think you're doing?

Miss Prescott, we weren't doing anything. We were just joking with Miss

Bennet.

Go on.

Take the shears from her and cut off her hair.

Miss Prescott, I'm sorry.

I'll never do it again.

Was I not clear?

I thought it was a joke.

Why aren't you laughing?

Mrs. Prescott never used to care about what happened between the staff.

What's with her today?

Who knows?

We can't mess with that woman anymore.

Claire is mine.

Humiliate her and you humiliate me.

If I ever catch anyone laying a finger on her again, losing your hair will be

the least of your worries.

We understand. We'll never do it again.

Get out.

Did she just stand up for me?

Why didn't you fight back when they bullied you?

They work for you. I couldn't risk crossing them.

No, you're mine, Miss Bennett.

Guess you're still not used to your new role.

She's so beautiful.

Why is my heart beating so fast?

And her lips look so soft.

I want to kiss her again.

What are you thinking about now?

I want to kiss you.

You don't have to adapt that fast.

Is she blushing? She can actually blush?

Wait, she can't see anyway. Why am I sneaking glances at her?

I'll take you shopping for some clothes first.

Dressing like a bum makes me look cheap.

A bum?

What else?

Fifty bucks!

I bought this dress just to come serve her, and she's calling me a bum? Your

fists are swinging so hard.

The breeze might give me a cold.

Oh.

Prescott! You should have told me you were coming. I would have prepared... No

need.

I'm here to pick out some clothes today.

What styles do you like?

We just received a new collection.

Would you like to try some pieces on?

No, thanks.

Just pick out a couple of things.

Bring out every new arrival.

Sophia, bring out all our latest arrivals.

This is a new piece from a Milan designer limited edition and these are

exclusive releases with only a few available worldwide Do I have to try all

of these?

You don't know what you like of course you have to try them all my parents

divorced when I was young mom raised me alone Just keeping me fed and in school

was hard enough What I wanted it never really mattered you can slag off

on how you live or what you wear.

But can you really slack off on your whole life?

I'm only giving you one chance.

Go try and figure out what you truly want.

That color is too bright.

It doesn't suit her.

That one looks great!

Stunning! That one is absolutely stunning!

This one!

This is the one! It's so perfect!

Skip the fourth and ninth.

Pack up everything else.

You're blind, aren't you?

Then how do you know which one looks good on me?

I may be blind, but I can hear their reactions.

Mrs. Prescott obviously crazy about you.

You two must be so happy together.

No, no. You've got it all wrong.

We barely know each other. Right.

Barely know each other.

That's why we share a bed.

Rich people.

Something else.

Eleanor, I'm coming home.

Come pick me up at the airport.

I'm stepping out to take this call.

Wait here for me.

Well, well, my dear half-sister Claire, what a surprise.

What, slinging flyers at a luxury mall now? Which sad little cafe is it?

Let me see.

I'll swing by and toss you a tip when I'm not too busy.

Miss, we don't allow... Do you know who I am?

My dad owns the Bennett Group.

If you want to keep your job, mind your own damn business.

Now beat it.

Chloe, I'm not in the mood for this today. Just drop it.

Who's trying to start something?

I just wanted to let you know that my 18th birthday party is next Wednesday at

the Rose Hotel.

You should come if you're free.

What does your birthday party have to do with me?

Why would I go?

Quit pretending.

You've been jealous of me since we were kids.

Now I'm getting this huge party and you can't even afford a decent outfit.

That must really sting, huh?

Why would I be jealous of a family of thieves?

Everything you have is my grandpa's.

You drove him to his grave, forced him to change his will, and threw me out of

the house.

You're all terrified that one day I'll come back for revenge, aren't you?

Bullshit! Grandpa wrote the will himself.

He left everything to my dad because he wanted to.

This company only exists because of the clients and connections my grandfather

left. What do you think those old clients will do when they find out how

dirty the Bennetts play?

You really think they'll still work with you?

What proof do you have?

Those are baseless accusations.

I'll sue you for defamation.

Anyway, even Dad doesn't want you. You're a pathetic stray nobody wants.

You'd better not mess with me because no one's coming to save you.

Who said no one's coming to save her?

Who is she? All the security and that vibe.

She looks like she could tear me to shreds.

What did you just call her?

Forget it.

I shouldn't pick a fight with her.

Who was that? An enemy of yours?

No one important. Forget her.

I want to go home.

Once I move into the manor, I won't get to come back much, so... I need to tell

my mom.

Alright, I'll take you. I can get there my- But rolling up to the hood

in a May-ban?

That's a little too flashy, isn't it?

Why are you getting out?

What's with that face?

I'm your dirty little secret sugar mama?

Well, aren't you? This whole thing is a mess.

20 minutes. That's all you get.

20 minutes.

That's all you get. Who died and made you boss, huh?

Oh no.

The boss is falling in love.

Mom, I found a great job.

I'm a private caregiver for a blind woman, and it pays really well.

Here's some cash for this month.

Claire, tell me, what are you really doing?

How did you get so much money?

And all our debts, are they paid off?

It is really a care-having job. I'm taking care of a rich woman who lost her

sight in crash.

Special care pays more, of course, that's all. She's actually easy to get

along with. She said I'm professional.

And the job is pretty easy.

All right, if you say so, I believe you, but Claire, people with disabilities can

be a real handful sometimes.

Watch your back, okay?

Yeah, she's a real handful.

Getting sized up like a piece of meat.

That's so humiliating, I can hardly breathe. Don't worry, Mom. I'm doing

great. We can have a good life without the Bennetts.

I've graduated, and I can support us now.

Let's just leave the past behind.

My sweet girl, I'll hold you back.

Don't say that. You're my mom.

Oh, I have to go. My employer is still waiting downstairs.

Take care of yourself, Mom.

I'll come see you whenever I can.

You... You're one minute late.

One minute? Just one minute?

If you work for me, you need to be punctual to the second.

What was I supposed to do? Fly up there?

Ivy, drive.

Back to the manor.

Yes, ma'am.

Ow! That really hurt!

Ivy, did you do that on purpose?

Ma'am, I'm always a careful driver. The road's just bumpy.

Get back in your seat.

She's the one who pulled me onto her lap.

Why is she snapping at me?

Are you insulting me in your head again?

My dear boss lady, can you read minds?

Or want to guess what's on my mind now?

Ivy, stop.

What? I said stop the car!

Take her back to the manor.

She really knew what I was thinking?

Boss got so pissed, then she stormed out of her own car.

Come eat.

How did she disappear out of nowhere like a ghost?

Well, well.

Miss Bennet's acting like she owns the place.

Don't forget, you're just here to take care of Ellador.

Serena, don't overstep and mind your own business.

I'm only looking out for you.

You care about me? Or are you just waiting for me to drop dead so you can

take over the Prescotts?

Ellador! Stop making baseless accusations!

Last March, someone messed with my brakes.

Last August, some fishy money appeared in the company books and landed in my

personal account suddenly.

This January, someone snitched on me to the financial crimes unit for money

laundering. Which one of those wasn't you?

Do you have any proof?

Without it, you're just full of shit.

The only reason I still let you sit at this table is Evelyn. Step out of line

again and I'll throw out of the Prescotts for good.

Help me back to my room Who

the hell got under her skin?

What's with all the rage?

Massage my temples

We found the traitor who sold the company's core data to our rival.

We have them in custody.

What do you want us to do with them?

Kill them.

Dump the body in the ocean and make sure there's no trace.

Scared? She can take a life with a single casual order.

This must be who she really is.

I'm not a good person.

You'd better remember that.

Don't harbor any delusions about me. You'll be the one who gets burned.

Understood. Run me a bath.

Did you identify the girl who gave Claire trouble at the mall today?

Yes. Kevin Bennett's daughter, Chloe Bennett.

They're going all out for her coming-of-age party at the Rose Hotel

next Wednesday.

Since they chose a hotel owned by the Prescotts, let's give them some proper

hospitality.

Who's there?

It's me, Eleanor.

Claire?

What are you doing?

I want you and I know you want me too

Claire

you've crossed the line You

can't see let

me take care of you

My god, I lost my mind I dreamed I seduced her

There's a party tonight

you're coming with me

If

you're ready, let's go Eleanor you're taking her to the party.

Is that a problem?

I just sent her to take care of you and warm your bed, not to be your arm candy

and parade around with you in public.

Is that how she sees me too?

The moment you sent her to my bed, she became mine.

What I do with her is none of your business.

You! What was I expecting?

Our relationship was always just a transaction.

Nothing more.

By the way, I remember you bought a necklace at auction last month.

Bring it here and put it on her.

What? I paid $8 million for that necklace. I haven't even worn it once.

No way I'm giving it to her. I'll show your hotel check-in records with

different men from last month to your precious charity snobs.

Eleanor Prescott, you are the devil.

My $8 million.

Claire, you've got it way too good.

Turn around.

Thank you, ma'am.

Let's go.

This is so extravagant. What kind of event is this? Chloe Bennett's coming-of

-age party.

What?

Chloe's coming-of-age party? The coming-of-age party for the Bennett

heiress, of course. We're already here.

There's no turning back now.

Let's go.

Congratulations, Mr. Bennett.

Thank you all for coming.

Miss Bennett has grown into such a beautiful young woman.

You're too kind.

Please excuse me. Enjoy yourselves.

Miss Prescott, your presence truly honors us. It is an incredible privilege

for the Bennetts to have you here.

Her?

The woman who stood up for Claire at the mall that day?

Chloe, this is the head of the Prescott group.

Say hello.

Pleasure to meet you, Miss Prescott.

Claire?

What are you doing here? Who let you in?

I brought her. Is there a problem?

No, of course not, if she came with you.

How the hell did she get mixed up with Eleanor?

Word is, Eleanor bats for the other base.

Claire's really climbed a ladder, huh?

Bullshit. Claire majored in nursing.

Eleanor obviously hired her as a caregiver.

Yeah, you are right. With Eleanor's status, there's no way she'd be

interested in Claire.

Isn't that the head of the Prescott family?

I heard she rarely appears in public.

How much pull do the Bennetts really have?

Who's the girl beside her?

She looks so familiar.

Wait, isn't that the Bennett family's eldest daughter who was thrown out 15

years ago?

Claire... Claire Bennett!

Look at the necklace around her neck. Isn't that the sapphire one that went

for $8 million at last month's auction?

My God.

Did Eleanor give that to her?

A disowned stray, and look at her now.

Talk about marrying up.

Go get me a glass of champagne.

Yes.

Well, look who it is.

My dear sister.

Scored Eleanor Prescott, huh? You came to my birthday party just to stir up

trouble, didn't you?

What? Jealous I got in with Eleanor?

Jealous of you?

Don't make me laugh.

Everyone in our circle knows Eleanor's a freak.

You're nothing but a toy to her.

The second she gets bored, she'll throw you away like trash.

How dare you? How dare you throw wine in my face?

Go cry to your homewrecker mother and your father.

who got rich off my grandpa's inheritance.

Let's see if either of them has the guts to cross Eleanor Prescott for you. She

really knows how to throw my name around.

Don't get so smug. Eleanor's blind. She's disabled.

What the hell are you so proud of?

Say it again.

I said she's blind.

You're a parasite living off a fortune your family stole.

What gives you the right to judge her?

You couldn't hold a candle to her. What's so great about her?

Without the Prescott name, she'd be nothing but a useless, blind woman.

And you actually think she's some kind of prize?

Bullshit! The Prescotts need her, not the other way around.

At your age, she was already running an empire.

Could you do that?

Claire, let go of me! Have you lost your mind?

She didn't just save the company. Actually, she grew the business

threefold. Real estate, tech, hospitality, she knows every division

inside and out.

She can go over the books with her eyes closed, and you probably can't even make

it through your times tapes.

You psycho, let go of me! She can speak four languages, ride horses, shoot, and

even play the piano.

She can play without seeing a single key.

Can you?

You can't even read sheet music.

Oh, right.

You wouldn't understand any of that. After all, your greatest achievement is

telling everyone.

My dad's Kevin Bennett.

Does she really think I'm that amazing?

You'll regret this.

She's actually pretty cute.

Where is she?

Oh, where did you disappear to, ma'am?

I heard a little wildcat making a fuss, so I went to take a look.

A wildcat?

In a hotel?

Thank you all for joining us tonight to celebrate my daughter Chloe's coming-of

-age ceremony.

You used to be the Bennett heiress?

You already dug all that up.

That's why you brought me here tonight, to watch the show, right?

Then watch closely.

Good evening, everyone.

I'm Claire Bennett.

the daughter the Bennets threw out.

Some of you may not know me, but I'm sure many of you knew my grandfather,

Lucas Sterling.

Some of you may even have worked with him.

On such a joyful occasion, I'd like to say a few words to my dear father, my

loving stepmother, and tonight's guest of honor, Chloe.

Claire, what the hell are you doing?

I'm just reminding everyone of one thing.

Fifteen years ago, the Bennett group was the Sterling group.

My grandfather built it from the ground up. He wanted it passed down with

honesty and decency, not stolen and paraded around like some trophy. Don't

listen to a word she says! She's crazy!

Security, get this lunatic out of here!

Mr. Bennett, Claire is with me.

She's under my protection.

Do you dare lay a hand on her?

Dad. This is our event.

Eleanor may be powerful, but she's still blind and here alone.

What can she possibly do?

But she has the Prescott family behind her. What are you afraid of? This is a

family matter. Eleanor has no say in it. You're dealing with your own daughter.

Who's going to question you?

Miss Prescott, this is a private family matter for the Bennetts.

I must ask you not to involve yourself tonight.

So Mr. Bennet wants to go up against me tonight?

Miss Prescott.

Claire came here tonight to cause a scene. If you insist on protecting her,

then you leave us no choice.

I checked the guest list.

Miss Prescott came with Claire and no one else. She's one blind woman in a

room full of Bennets. How much trouble could she possibly cause?

This has nothing to do with Eleanor. If you want someone, come after me.

What the hell is going on?

Dad!

Take me home.

Okay.

Eleanor Prescott!

Do you have any idea what tomorrow's headlines will say about you?

Doesn't that scare you?

Whatever I decide.

Can't sleep?

What's on your mind?

Nothing.

Afraid of me?

Being afraid of me is a good thing.

I'm not afraid.

I'm not afraid.

Then what is it?

Claire is mine.

Humiliate her and you humiliate me.

I think I'm falling for her.

Nothing. I'm tired. Good night.

What was that about?

Please, Eleanor.

Don't be so good to me.

I'm scared I'll let myself believe you care, and then you'll leave.

After that, I did everything I could to keep my feelings for Eleanor under

control.

I kept telling myself it was just a deal, that I couldn't let myself fall

for her.

I didn't belong in her world.

I threw myself into my role as her private caregiver.

And taking care of Eleanor became second nature.

Until that day.

Should I pick you up from the office today?

I'm not going to today.

Take me to the airport.

I need to pick someone up.

Who's important enough for you to pick them up yourself?

Evelyn, Serena's daughter.

She's coming home from overseas.

Evelyn, the little sister Eleanor adores.

Miss Evelyn is here.

Eleanor! I missed you so much in Italy.

Did you even miss me?

You never even emailed me.

Aren't you a little old for all this?

You said I'd always be your little sister.

You can't take that back now.

Alright. What am I gonna do with you?

She's always so cold.

Always acting like everyone's beneath her.

I've never seen her this sweet with anyone.

So, who's this?

Your new assistant?

She's my... I'm Claire Bennett. Mrs. Thorne hired me as Miss Prescott's

private caregiver.

Is that true?

Yes.

Right. That's all this is. Nothing more.

Evelyn! You're finally home!

Have you been eating okay?

Getting enough sleep?

You've lost so much weight. Mom, just stop giving Eleanor a hard time and...

I'll be fine.

Okay, okay.

I'm just glad you're home.

Come on, let's eat.

Dinner's ready.

Eleanor, you wouldn't believe how much happened while I was in Italy.

Eleanor, do you remember that gallery in Florence?

The one you took me to last time? It had that little rooftop terrace with a view

of the Devoma.

I remember.

You went through the whole gallery three times because you just had to have that

abstract painting.

I said you didn't understand it and you got mad at me.

I understood it perfectly!

I just thought the colors would look great with the sofa in your study.

Besides, I'm studying art history now.

Keep saying I don't understand art and I really will get mad.

Evelyn has studied art history in Italy for a year. Of course her taste has

changed. If you like that painting, I'll buy it for you. Mom, don't interrupt.

I'm talking to Eleanor.

Here, try mine. I cut it just the right size.

She's smiled more today than she has in the entire six months I've been with

her.

Here, try a bite. I cut it up for you.

No, thank you. I'm not used to being fed.

Okay.

Liar.

I'm full. I'll go set out Miss Prescott's toiletries.

What's with that girl today?

She's acting strange.

Did something upset her?

She looked like she was about to cry.

I'm full.

Blind and in such a hurry. Guess she's not worried about falling.

Well, well.

Is my sister falling in love?

Miss Prescott, your bath's ready and the water's just right. Your toiletries are

in the usual spot and the pajamas are ironed and hanging in the closet.

What's wrong? Did something happen? Can I help?

I'm fine. It's nothing.

You're lying.

Would you like your bath now or a little later? Help me bathe.

Okay.

Evelyn got mad at me once when she was little, and wouldn't tell me what was

wrong. She just bottled it all up, and it almost ended badly.

That's when I learned, keeping things to yourself only makes them worse.

Evelyn, Evelyn, Evelyn, why don't you get Jealousy, your precious Everin, to

bathe you?

Hey, what are you doing?

I'm done.

You can do this rest yourself.

Is she here to be my private caregiver, or boss me around?

You're gonna drink yourself to death!

Maybe that's the point.

What's going on with you?

You're always glued to Eleanor's side, and when you finally get a day off, you

spend it getting wasted?

Don't mention her!

Did you two have a fight?

No. I'm the only one who's mad.

If you like her, why don't you just tell her?

She's way out of my league.

She's at the top, running an entire business empire.

And what am I?

Just a caregiver on her payroll.

And I don't want to get tossed aside again.

Dad! Open up! Mom's sick!

Please, just come see her!

Dad, please!

Ira and I are divorced.

You're no daughter of mine. Don't ever come looking for me again.

After that day, I swore I'd never give anyone the chance to abandon me.

But you can't stay single forever.

Then I'll date someone I don't love.

That way it won't hurt if they leave.

It's this late and she hasn't texted once.

This isn't like her.

Ma'am, Miss Claire is drinking with her friends at Spade Bar tonight.

What?

Who sent you this?

A friend of mine happens to be there and recognize Miss Claire, so she took this

video. She overheard them talking. Sounds like Miss Claire's looking for

someone to date.

Do you want to head over?

That'll be all, Ivy.

Of course Claire wants to date someone.

Who am I to stop her?

She overheard them talking. Sounds like Miss Claire's looking for someone to

date. I can't give her a future.

Sooner or later, she'll walk out of here and out of my life.

So be it.

Eleanor, the Prescotts have enemies inside the family and out. Your mother's

crash was an accident.

Dad, please don't talk and save your strength. When you're on top, everyone's

gunning for you.

Feelings will make you vulnerable.

If you want to stay in charge, you can never let yourself fall in love.

I promise.

I'll protect everything our family built and never let myself fall in love. She

overheard them talking. Sounds like Miss Claire's looking for someone to date.

Weakness my ass.

She's been giving me the cold shoulder for days, but she's laughing it up with

someone else.

And then, she got so mad, she got out of the car and stranded herself.

Seriously?

I figured she'd at least kick you out of the car.

Beats me.

Bella?

Eleanor? What are you- You're coming home with me.

I'm not going back. It's my day off, and I'm crashing at Zoe's tonight. You're

sleeping at whose place?

My bed's too small for two.

Claire's drunk. You take good care of her.

Ready to leave with me now?

What are you doing?

You can't see! Put me down!

Then stop squirming.

What are you trying to do?

Just making you do your job.

Don't forget that satisfying me in bed is part of your job too.

She's right.

I'm just a body to her.

Maybe it's better this way.

It's just a transaction and no strings attached.

Just feel it.

Eleanor, that's enough. No more.

Already had enough?

We're just getting started.

I can't take anymore.

Eleanor, I really can't.

Come here.

No, I need a minute.

Guess that's not strong enough.

Eleanor, please.

I can't take it anymore.

I'm gonna come again.

Claire, I love you.

You love me, but you can't just... Wait.

What did you say?

I love you.

You love me?

I do.

Say it again!

Please. Say it again.

You're such a perv.

Claire, I love you.

So, you won Claire over?

That's grown-up business, kiddo. Don't be nosy.

By the way, Eleanor's got such pretty hands.

Long fingers, fair skin, and knuckles that stand out just enough.

Right, Claire?

Yeah. They are pretty long.

I'm glad you like them.

And just like that, Eleanor and I were together.

Like any couple falling in love.

We couldn't get enough of each other.

One look, one smile from her, and my whole day would be better.

It might sound silly, but I really, really love her.

I'll pick you up once I'm done at the office.

Have fun.

Okay.

this little love bug floating on cloud nine.

So you're with Eleanor now? Not scared anymore?

Fortune favors the bold. Love has gone to your hand.

But seriously, I heard Eleanor is a total freak in bed. Is it true? Have you

two, you know? Huh?

What are you talking about? I don't know what you mean.

Come on, tell me.

What's it like being with someone like Eleanor who has it all?

That little brat Zoe?

Does she ever know when to stop?

Colin, something's been off between Eleanor and Claire lately. I think

there's something going on between them.

Oh, that's the best news for me in a long time.

What do you mean?

Serena, did you really think I put Claire by her side just to watch

Eleanor? Then what was your real plan?

To make Eleanor fall in love.

She's always been too cold-blooded. Someone like her never makes mistakes

until she has something to lose.

Once she has someone she cares about, she has a weakness.

You mean to use Claire as leverage?

Find her weakness, and Prescott is mine.

Father gave it all to my brother. But after all these years, I'll take it

back.

And when that happens, I can finally become your wife for real?

Of course.

Isn't that why you've endured all these years at Prescott Manor?

Then first, we need to know how Eleanor really feels for Claire.

Let's set a trap and put her feelings to the test.

Eleanor, the manor is on fire and the whole place is burning. You need to come

back. Now!

Where's Claire?

Is she all right?

I haven't seen her. I think she's still inside.

Ivy, the car, now.

Eleanor, you're here. I don't know who... Where's Claire? How did everyone

get out except her?

I didn't see her when I got out. I don't know. Miss Prescott, when I ran out, I

think I saw Miss Claire heading toward the bedroom.

Claire!

Ma'am, you can't go in there. It's too dangerous.

Let me go!

Claire's still in there. She can't be hurt.

Let me go.

Claire! Claire!

Eleanor?

That person they just carried out. I think... I think it's Claire.

No.

It can't be.

Eleanor, don't! Take... take me to her.

Eleanor!

Eleanor, I was so scared.

I came as fast as I could when I heard the manor was on fire.

I thought...

It's okay.

You're okay now.

Ivy, tonight's fire wasn't an accident.

Find out who did it and bring them to me.

Yes, ma'am.

Being around me is too dangerous.

I can't let you risk your life because of me again.

Eleanor. Which brooch do you like better? The rose gold diamond or the

platinum sapphire?

You're fired.

It's not April Fool's Day. You're not serious, right? I'm not joking. Your

termination is effective immediately.

Now go to accounting for your final paycheck.

Why?

Give me a reason. I don't need a reason to fire someone.

I don't believe that. Is this because of the fire?

Eleanor, I can protect myself.

I won't be a burden to you.

Because I'm tired of playing.

What did you say?

I said I'm tired of playing with you.

Didn't you hear me?

Did something happen?

I can be good. I won't cause you any trouble.

Claire, I was just playing with you this whole time.

Just like all the others.

Who do you think you are? Some girl from the slums with nothing, thinking you

were special?

Get out. Stop holding on to me. At least then I'll still have some respect for

you.

Since you're being so honest, I'll drop the act too.

Eleanor, no matter what, thanks for the money. It got the past a date and got me

out of that hellhole.

I was already sick of taking care of you anyway.

Thank you for setting me free.

Don't look back.

Claire, don't give her the satisfaction.

After leaving Eleanor, my life went back to the way it was.

Quiet, dull, and the same every day.

I opened this cafe using the money I earned from working for her.

And every day, I meet all kinds of people, but nobody like her.

There are clean clothes in the closet.

Pick something to wear.

So damn frampy.

But sometimes I still miss her so much. It hurts like hell.

It's getting cold, ma'am. Please make sure you stay warm.

There. Don't catch a cold.

Ma'am, is something on your mind?

Nothing. Let's go.

We got him, ma'am. The man behind Serena is Colin Prescott, your uncle. The

shooting three years ago was staged.

He never died.

He's been pulling strings from the shadows for three years, and at least

seven or eight executives are on his payroll.

Coleman in finance, Harris in legal, Wilson at the Canadian branch.

All his people.

This is everything.

You know what to do.

It would have taken me three months to gather all this evidence.

And she already had it. How many people does she have working in the shadows?

Ivy, remove every parasite. No exceptions.

Understood.

Eleanor took out all your own people. She knows, doesn't she?

She doesn't just know.

She's known it all from the start.

What do you mean?

This afternoon, she had Ivy report Wilson for corporate crimes before they

took him in.

He sent me this. He ratted me out.

What is she going to do to us? We're out of options.

It's time to go all in against her.

Didn't she care about Claire?

She hasn't contacted her since throwing her out. Maybe she never did, and no one

can get through to her.

Taking Claire hostage is our last gamble. We have no choice.

Internal purge is complete, ma'am.

Colin's outside help is cut off and has got no one left backing him unless he

decides to go for broke.

Eleanor, three years since you heard from me, so miss your dear uncle?

Colin. That's my girl. Still remember me. Your little girlfriend is in my

hands. Want her alive?

Come alone to the abandoned docks on the western side.

No backup, no police.

You know I don't bluff.

You know I'm not joking. And why would you think I'd risk myself for someone

who means nothing to me?

Eleanor, don't come!

They're trying to trap you!

You heard her. She's stubborn. But if you're late, she might have to learn a

lesson. If I get there and she has so much as a scratch on her... Then you'd

better hurry. One hour.

After that, the deal's off.

Ma'am, I'll get our people to be ready.

No.

He said I have to go alone. But you know it's a trap.

Ma'am, they're coming after you. I'm going anyway!

Take our people and keep them hidden around the perimeter. Wait for my

signal.

Understood.

Is she really coming? What if she brings backup?

It's just the two of us. If she shows up, it means she cares. She won't risk

bringing anyone else.

When she's alone, that blind woman is at our mercy.

If she doesn't come, we bet on the wrong horse.

She showed.

Guess we called it.

Eleanor, since you're here, sign this equity transfer agreement, and Prescott

Group will be mine.

Then you get your little girlfriend back.

I can't see.

Bring it here and show me where to sign.

You'd better not try anything.

What are you afraid of, Colin? What could a blind woman possibly do?

Serena, take it to her. Make her sign.

Eleanor, sign it quietly and don't get cute.

Sign here. Some stepmother you turned out to be.

It's done.

The Prescotts are finally mine.

You're not blind?

You were pretending this whole time?

Took you long enough, but you're too late.

Bella, finish him.

We're done. It's all over.

I'm sorry. I came too late.

Why did you lie to me? Why did you let me take care of you for so long?

I'm sorry, Claire. I missed you so much.

So you could see the whole time?

Then everything I did in front of you?

Making faces, changing clothes, shaking your fist at me, mimicking me behind my

back. Mm-hmm.

I saw it all.

Then why did you pretend to be blind? Because there were too many snakes in

the family. If I didn't play weak, they'd never show their faces.

But I won't have to pretend anymore.

Poor thing.

How about we try a new toy to make this poor thing feel better?
