(Episode 111)

Ms. Seo.

Why don't we make a deal?

You want to be loved by Jung Min, don't you?

I'll teach you how.

I can't expect to have a conversation with a psychopath.

That means I'll have to tell her what she wants to hear.

That crazy woman.

I need to know what she's thinking in order to predict her actions.

Ji Eun, don't try to play tricks on me.

I guess you're not interested.

At this point, it's useless to pretend like I'm a good person.

I don't want to lie either.

Shut your mouth.

Forget it if you're not interested.

You're the only one who has the power...

to choose what you want to do.

Why don't you hear me out instead of being so hesitant?

Let's hear what you have to say.

Like you said, I need to disappear from Jung Min's life...

in order for you to have a chance with him.

A chance for you to love him.

We easily tend to get fooled by the person we love.

What's that supposed to mean?

It means I don't love Jung Min.

I love his money and background.

I knew from the very beginning...

that your feelings for him weren't pure.

It seemed like you could tell, and it made me feel uncomfortable.

So what do you want from me?

Will you do as I ask?

What do you want me to do?

Jung Min has a secret bank account in Switzerland.

Before the late chairman passed away,

he pocketed millions of dollars into that bank account.

The passcode to that bank account is written on a notepad.

Once I find that,

I no longer need to be with Jung Min.

To be honest with you, I actually wrote a prenup...

before marrying Jung Min.

That means I won't be getting anything for myself...

even if we get a divorce.

Even if the money goes missing in that bank account,

he won't be able to file a report...

because the money was collected illegally.

So you married him because of that?

That's why it's pointless to be doing this to me.

Instead of wasting your energy,

why don't we think of an idea that will benefit us both?

I will leave Jung Min...

the moment I find the passcode.

Then you'll get to have him all to yourself.

Then why did you marry him?

You know I didn't want to marry him at first.

But I had no choice but to go ahead with the wedding...

in order to find the passcode.

I'm also human, so it does hurt my conscience.

After all, Jung Min is a kind man.

Director Seo is a very kind and good person.

I wouldn't say he's that kind.

Don't you know?

It was Jung Min's idea to make it seem like...

Director Choi had regained her consciousness.

That's how you got caught.

How dare you badmouth him...

when he only did that to clear your name?

You're a horrible witch.

You don't deserve to be with him.

That's why I'm offering to leave.

That is, if you find me the notepad.

You want me to find it?

If you find it, I'll give you 30 percent.

I want half.

40 percent.

Fine.

Then now that we have a deal,

can you at least let one of my hands free?

What would I be able to do with just one hand?

The finger you smashed with the hammer hurts so much.

It's not like I can do anything with a broken hand.

Does this mean she trusts me now?

She must trust me...

seeing that she's letting one of my hands free.

I need to make her like me now.

Instead of getting treatment, I just want to leave somewhere.

Sometimes,

married life can be exhausting and difficult.

It's as if I don't exist.

And it's burdensome and pressuring...

to have to live my life as the daughter-in-law...

of the late chairman and Jung Min's wife.

Ji Eun just wanted to date you.

But you desperately wanted to start a family,

and she wanted to give that to you.

She told me that's why she proposed to you.

That means...

she doesn't want to marry me.

Every time you tell me it's okay,

I end up feeling so bad, and I'm sick and tired of that.

I'm also exhausted...

of desperately wanting a baby even when I'm not getting pregnant.

Ji Eun.

Don't call me like that.

Hearing you call me like that makes me feel even sadder.

I want to be alone right now. Give me some space.

Stop bothering me.

I don't love you anymore. What do you expect from me?

Feelings change.

I don't like you anymore.

I didn't have the courage to say this to you face to face.

I'd like to have some space for a while.

I'm at the airport right now.

I'd like to organize my thoughts while taking a trip around Europe.

I won't be answering your calls.

I'll call you once I'm done organizing my thoughts.

Fine, Ji Eun.

I'm starting to get exhausted too. Do whatever you want.

(Seorin)

Please tell Ms. Kim...

that I'll be taking a long break.

What's going on?

We have tons of projects going on.

You can confirm things with me via email.

- Until when? - I'll contact you again.

Is Ms. Lee home?

Is she sick?

She went on a trip.

What? Alone?

Is there something wrong?

Did you fight?

I'm obviously no match for her.

She promised to contact you regarding work,

so I'm sure she will.

I don't know what's going on,

but just let her do what she wants.

She deserves a break anyway.

It looks like she took a trip to get her mind off things.

You know how women sometimes tend to crave freedom.

Yes, I guess so.

I'll be off now.

Good morning.

No, this morning is like a nightmare.

I'll see you.

I guess he fought with his wife.

Why do they fight so often these days?

Good morning.

I guess I'm the only one who doesn't think it's a good morning.

Bok Ja.

Do you have time for coffee?

Sure.

Ji Eun crossed the line this time.

She can't just go on a trip and notify you afterward.

Yes, I'm angry and frustrated.

That's why I asked if you had time for coffee.

I'm not trying to take Ji Eun's side or anything,

but I would've been stressed as well if I were in her shoes.

She focused on work because she kept failing to get pregnant,

but at the same time, she also felt pressured...

regarding the investment she received from Seorin.

She told you that?

She didn't exactly tell me.

But she seemed to be on her toes every time she had a meeting...

with Seorin's finance team.

You didn't know that, did you?

She could barely eat anything...

whenever she had a meeting with the finance team.

Ji Eun had to prove her competence,

but she didn't want anyone to see how worried she was.

And now she's even the major shareholder's wife.

So she had to be a lot more careful than before.

I guess her stress level hit the roof.

But even so,

she can't just go on a trip without even discussing it with me.

That kind of shows how much she doesn't care about me.

Either that or she just looks down on me.

I'm sure she'll come back to normal...

after she gets some air.

Bok Ja, you told me...

that Ji Eun just wanted to date me.

You said she only proposed to me...

because she knew I wanted to get married.

I'm starting to regret it.

She was even late to the wedding because she was hesitant.

I'm starting to wonder...

if I shouldn't have gone through with the wedding that day.

I don't think...

marriage is something that suits Ji Eun.

Thanks for your time.

Has Ji Eun lost her mind?

What do you mean?

Here's the item for next month.

I'll look at it later.

Why are you so down today?

Is someone annoying you?

Why are you always so curious about me?

Look at you getting all hysterical again.

I'm telling you. Let's just get married.

We're not dating.

We're just taking our time breaking up.

- Don't you get it? - What?

We can't break up.

That friend of yours eventually gave up on you.

That means no one will ever be able to hit on you...

as long as I stay next to you.

Where are you going?

To meddle in someone else's love life.

Why don't you just focus on our love?

You call this love?

Then what am I? A stalker?

Plus, you hit on me first.

What? When did I ever hit on you?

- Don't you remember? - Remember what?

You told me I was your ideal type.

When did I ever say that?

Back when I was in middle school, you said that to me...

after you got dumped by your boyfriend.

You told me you like innocent guys like me.

You were nice enough to comfort me that day.

I only said that to you because I wanted to thank you.

I actually prefer guys who are a bit more selfish.

You can get locked up for three years for lying, you know.

What?

You like kind guys like Yeo Jin.

Stop caring so much about your age difference,

and just do what your heart tells you to do.

We all know you like Yeo Jin.

You can get locked up for three years for lying, you know.

I know there's a law for that,

but it's never happened before.

Do you study law, Yoo Na?

My boyfriend is a lawyer, so this is basic knowledge for me.

I know you guys are close with Yeo Jin,

but don't give him any funny ideas.

She keeps avoiding me because of our age difference...

even though she likes me. What should I do?

You need to give her conviction.

I liked her for 10 years.

What more do I need to do to show her how much I love her?

Can I be honest with you?

Yoo Na...

Don't be honest. It's going to be too harsh.

- Tell me. - No...

You guys broke up because of your mother.

Right?

Then your mother owes her an apology.

No matter how much a woman loves a man,

she'll be quick to give up...

if the guy's mother doesn't like her.

Women in our country are very sensitive...

when it comes to having conflicts with their mothers-in-law.

But your mother disapproved of her even when you're not married,

so it's obvious marriage will only make things worse.

If you were her, would you want to get involved in that?

Okay.

I'll do something about it pretty soon.

Thanks for your support, guys.

See you.

Let's sit down, Yoo Na.

So what is it that you wish to talk about with me?

Your mother asked me to go hiking with her this weekend.

I see... What?

So did you say you'll go?

I obviously couldn't refuse.

Gosh, what's wrong with my mom?

I'll call my mom and have her cancel it.

Then she's going to think I didn't want to go.

Well, you can go if you want.

I feel awkward going hiking with her all on my own.

So you want me to join?

Don't you know I hate exercising?

I even hate walking, but you want me to go hiking?

No way.

Ho Jin, you really need to work out.

You're always busy chatting,

but you need to exercise your body, not your mouth.

I'll see you that day then.

I only introduced Yoo Na to my parents...

because they kept pressuring me to get married.

But it looks like I might end up falling into my own trap.

Hello, Ms. Jo.

I figured you should know this.

Jung Min seems pretty angry.

Okay. Thanks for calling.

I'll try calling Ji Eun too.

The phone is turned off. You will be directed to voicemail.

Please leave a message after the beep.

Didn't she pick up?

Ji Eun isn't the type to be so irresponsible.

She left a message saying she'll be back after she gets some air.

I think something's up.

Maybe it's something she can't talk to Jung Min about.

She's a grown woman,

and she's not the type to cause trouble,

so I'm sure everything's fine. She'll call once she feels better.

And maybe her cell phone is turned off...

because she's on a plane right now.

I didn't have a good dream last night.

And for some reason, I feel so nervous.

There's no need to feel nervous.

She probably just had an argument with Jung Min.

I also once ran away from home, so I know how this works.

When you have a lot on your mind,

you suddenly feel the urge to just disappear.

Ji Eun isn't irresponsible like that.

Then are you saying I am?

You know that's not what I meant.

You really know how to hold a grudge.

It's not easy to forget how much you hurt me.

You look sexy even when you're hurt.

Now let's eat breakfast.

I wonder if Jung Min did anything to hurt Ji Eun.

Hey, you're home.

Didn't you miss me?

What's with the personality change?

Just treat him like you always did.

What was my personality like?

You? You were the most brazen girl in this entire world.

People can interpret things very differently...

depending on the situation they're in.

And some things are better left unsaid.

I know I upset you a lot.

I'm sorry.

It's true that I was upset,

but we tend to hurt our family members the most.

So that's just how I'm going to think of it.

But of course, only if you're ready to accept me as your family.

I thought it was too complicated,

but I decided to keep it simple.

I chose to love both my dad and my stepdad at the same time.

It's really nice...

to hear you call me "Stepdad".

I know you had a hard time...

calling me that because you felt awkward.

Our family kept receiving things from you,

and I think that made me feel a bit distant from you.

Time will bring us closer together.

By the way, your mother told me...

that you came up with the idea...

to buy the bar so I'd show up there.

I played the biggest role in helping you guys...

get back together, right?

Young Eun is very clever.

You're right. I really am.

Thank you for everything.

You too, Young Eun.

What's with you?

What's with the personality change? Just be yourself.

What am I normally like?

You're crazy in love.

My goodness.

- By the way, Young Eun, - Yes?

did Ji Eun ever say anything to you?

What do you mean?

Your sister just sent an email to Jung Min...

and went on a trip abroad.

That's great.

When I went over to her house,

she told me Jung Min won't be home.

Why?

You know that kid, little Jung Min?

He was at the hospital taking care of him.

He still goes there?

That's only going to make Ji Eun feel uneasy.

No wonder Ji Eun had a lot on her mind.

I get why she suddenly left on a trip abroad.

I get that the kid wasn't that woman's biological kid,

but isn't it a bit too much to keep visiting him?

I get that he feels bad for the kid,

but I don't think he should keep going there.

I hope Ji Eun quickly gets pregnant.

My goodness.

Oh, gosh.

There is no notepad.

Did you search everywhere?

I searched the entire place after Director Seo left...

Didn't you watch the monitor?

I fell asleep.

How could you fall asleep?

I've been tied up for more than 24 hours.

Wouldn't you be exhausted if you were in my shoes?

I haven't eaten all day either.

Are you asking me for food?

Is it really necessary to keep me tied up like this...

even after the deal we've made?

Unchain my right hand too.

Cut the nonsense.

I won't be able to run away...

if you lock the door to this place anyway.

You'll attack me first.

I can't trust you until I find the notepad.

Then at least let me switch hands.

My right arm feels numb.

And I'm hungry. Give me some food.

I know you don't want to hurt me.

I don't plan on running away either.

After all, you promised to help me find the notepad.

If it turns out that you're fooling me,

you'll have to pay for it.

Then hurry up and find the notepad.

That will prove that I'm not lying.

If you don't trust me, you won't be able to get anything.

Gosh, it hurts.

Goodness, it hurts.

I suddenly remembered something.

You were sent back to the orphanage twice,

and you had a very difficult life.

No one ever took your side,

so it's natural that you find it hard to trust people.

I know we can't be friends,

but we both need each other's help.

I always keep my promises.

But instead, you must find me the notepad no matter what.

You really are crazy about money.

You don't know all the stuff I had to go through...

just because I didn't have money.

You want money,

and I want Director Seo's love.

You'd better not do anything to cause trouble.

I'll behave if you give me food.

I should go to Director Seo's office to look for the notepad.

I'm going to visit Jung Min on my way back.

I'll make you something to eat before I leave.

It's not the weekend today, but you came again.

Yes, I had a meeting nearby,

and I dropped by because I missed you.

Do you miss me every day?

Of course. I miss you every day.

I was able to meet my mom today.

She came to see me earlier while I was sleeping.

Oh, I see. I guess you met her in your dream.

(Director Choi Myung Hwa)

I can feel the mother's affection. It's beautiful.

It's a gift for you.

You'll also become a mother one day.

Is it worth a lot of money?

I support you for wanting to study art, Mom.

I will be your first buyer...

at your very first exhibition.

It's really nice to hear you call me "Mom".

I feel a lot closer to you now that I keep calling you that.

I regret not having done it sooner.

I may not be a perfect mother,

but I'll try my best to be a good one.

The first word that kids tend to say after they're born is "Mom".

I'm sorry you never got to do that.

I'm just really happy that I'm able to call you that now.

Nurse Kim, have you lost your mind?

We could get sued for accidentally mistaking...

someone's medical chart for someone else's.

She's pregnant. What if she took some drugs...

that pregnant women aren't supposed to take?

Call Ms. Lee Ji Eun right now.

Tell her that her medical chart was switched with someone else's...

and congratulate her on her pregnancy.

Gosh.

I'm sorry, my baby.

I promise I'll get out of here.

I'll safely get out of here no matter what.

(Phoenix 2020)

I need to be a strong mother.

So I'm going to overcome this nightmare at all costs.

What? Why is the water shaking?

Is Jung Min and Ji Eun doing well?

You're a lot more mature than your mother.

Let's say goodbye to Lee Ji Eun.

Then the three of us will finally become happy.

That's enough!

I hate you! I'm sick of you!

I just want to end this!
