I still want you to walk together with me.

I want you to be by my side

when my mom remembers me.

Is that you, Vee?

I can see it now, Mom.

I can see it.

You look so cute.

I think there is only one thing that you cannot change.

Now, Chanon has turned against you.

This is our new majority shareholder, Miss Tanya.

I'm going back to compete with Chanon.

THE INEVITABLE ENEMY

Hello, Aunt Noi?

(Yes?)

(How was it?)

I was waiting for you to ask me that.

Here's the thing, Aunt Noi,

Mr. Vee is ready to get back in the field.

(Finally.)

(And here I thought my money would have gone to waste.)

(Tell him to do his best, Mirin.)

(And tell him to let me know if he needs any help,)

(both about business and his mother.)

Yes.

Thank you, Aunt Noi.

Here.

This is from the latest collection.

I picked it out especially just for you, Sui.

Thank you.

Please look out for him.

Chanon really is a hard working man.

You always have something for us every time we meet, Sroyphet.

We're starting to feel like we're imposing.

But we always take care of each other, don't we?

I'll support you in the meeting.

I've always preferred Chanon's management.

Thank you.

Of course.

Excuse me, but I am returning this.

And excuse me for choosing to support whatever is best for the company,

whether that person is Chanon or Veekit.

You have two children, don't you?

How is your financial situation?

If you happened to lose your job today,

would you say you have enough money

to pay for your children's education up to, say...

University?

I don't just invite anybody to tea.

Don't turn me down.

Please take the gift.

In case you really do lose your job,

you can still sell it to support your children.

Then I'll take it.

And I'll do my best to support Chanon.

A smart decision.

Feel free to let the staff know if you need anything else.

Like I said,

with your help,

I believe Next Innovation still has a long way to go.

Thank you.

My pleasure.

Excuse me.

This way, please.

Please.

- Please. - Thank you.

Let's get down to business, shall we?

You said you were almost here, Mirin.

Your "just a moment" and mine are definitely different, huh?

You know what?

If you don't come here by the time I finish this,

I'm getting mad at you for real.

Hey.

I don't forgive easily, I'll have you know.

Come back already.

You're late, my heart.

Mr. Vee, I can't breathe when you're squeezing my heart.

How about I drop you off and pick you up from now on?

Save you the trouble, you know?

Oh, please, you don't have to.

I'm late because I talked to Big Noi.

I told her you're ready to get back to work.

Oh... What did Big Noi say?

The first thing she said was...

"Finally!"

And then she said you should tell her if you need help with anything,

both about work and about Aunt Nee.

Well...

Can I get another hug?

Quickly! We need to get back to work. Only one hug.

Okay.

Wait.

Let me stare at your face for a bit longer.

I can finally see again so I gotta appreciate my girl's face.

Mr. Vee.

What?

- Let's go. - Just a minute.

Enough already.

Come on.

You want anything, baby?

Should we change the font here?

Here.

Alright, Mr. Vee.

That's enough now. Thank you.

Mr. Vee.

Can I ask you something?

Sure.

If you really have to go up against Mr. Chanon,

how will this end?

Based solely on what you want, I mean.

Don't think about any other possibilities for now.

Well...

I'm asking because

we don't know what kind of actions Mr. Chanon has already taken at Next.

Most of the employees, even before this, have always rooted for him...

More than they do for you.

I like having you by my side.

Please, this is hardly the time for that.

I like that you mean what you say

and that you say it with good intentions.

I also happen to be very cool

so I always take your cautious suggestions in stride.

Mr. Vee, be serious.

I'm asking because I'm really worried about you.

What will it be like if you must go up against your own cousin,

where will it lead,

and how will it end?

The ending that I want to see is...

For whatever possessing Chanon to stop,

and I get the old him back.

I want him to remember that

I never mean him any harm.

I want him to remember

what a kind man he truly is.

I want to work with him again.

Honestly, for him,

I'll willingly give up the company.

But if Non,

or Aunt Sroy,

wants to hurt my mother, or hurt you,

I don't want to be someone who can't protect anyone.

I'll give up everything they want me to,

but I won't let anything hurt you or Mom.

I know Aunt Sroy.

She won't back down.

I'm certain about one thing.

If they win,

they won't spare a loser like me anything.

But I'll show them that

if I win,

they will still have me as their family.

Hmm?

I'm really proud of you.

Careful, please.

You loved this place, you know that, Mom?

I did?

Yes.

Over there.

When I was a kid,

you once scolded me there for taking off without you.

You asked me

what you would ever do if I went missing.

You said you'd be devastated.

After that, I never once ran off without you again.

I was so afraid of hurting you.

Mom.

Please don't go away again.

If you are gone again, I'll be devastated.

Please stay with me, Mom.

(Next Innovation needs both Chanon and Veekit.)

(Why didn't you look after Veekit today?)

(You're the big brother here, Non.)

(I've been telling you all this time to take care of him.)

Hello, Grandpa.

I know you're busy, but we can't wait any longer.

Please attend the meeting at 11 o'clock today.

Hello, Miss Eas?

Please schedule a meeting for me.

Today, at 11 o'clock.

Thank you.

Everything's ready on my end.

Three people have promised to support you.

Yes.

Everything's all cleared on my end, too.

All we need to know now is if Veekit is coming back to Next.

No.

Veekit can't come back.

I'll close every door in his face.

Don't worry.

Sh—

You lost?

Why are you following me?

Hey.

I'm asking you why you're following me.

I... I've mistaken you for someone else.

Thank you, you guys.

Was I intimidating enough just now?

You were great.

Yeah!

Who is he, though?

I don't know.

But I've got a photo of him now.

We'll look out for you.

Thank you.

Of course.

I'll be picking you up from now on.

Do not refuse.

Do you know how dangerous it is to be stalked like that?

And you waited until you got here to tell me?

You should have called me right away!

You were lucky there were some nice guys around.

I dread to even think what would have happened otherwise.

You're the size of a chihuahua!

You thought you could take him if he decided to attack?

I'm buying you a whistle, a taser, and some pepper spray.

You're carrying all those on you at all times.

Do you remember the guy's face?

What?

Why didn't you just tell me, you dork?

Why'd you just let me stand here and ramble?

Because you didn't even pause long enough for me to cut in.

You're fretting as much as a paranoid middle aged uncle, you know that?

You're so ugly right now.

You're so ugly when you're arguing with me.

What? But you—

What would I do if anything happened to you?

We need to find out who he is.

What do you think he wants from me?

Someone was spying on Aunt Nee before this, too.

Who sent him?

Do you think this has something to do with...

...to do with Next.

It might have something to do with Non, or Aunt Sroy.

If everyone knows where Mom is,

she'll be in danger.

I'm going back to Next.

But...

Mr. Vee.

You're not ready. Your plan is still—

If I keep hiding here,

it's you and Mom who will be at risk.

Then I'm coming with you.

We need to make Mr. Non think that I'm still helping you out.

We can't let him find out that you can—

That I can see now.

Yes.

Good.

We might not be able to come up with a proper plan in time,

but it will make up for the fact that I can see now.

Let me know how things turn out.

Yes. Thank you.

Please.

I'll see you in there.

- Thank you. - I'll vote for you.

Please.

How is it?

Everything's alright?

90% of everyone in that room is on our team.

The other 10% is acting like they're not, just for fairness' sake.

Cool.

You're ready to invest, aren't you?

The numbers might be higher than we originally thought.

That's not a problem.

Whatever it takes to get rid of Veekit.

Shall we?

After you.

Please.

Hello.

Thank you for coming.

We have one agenda today.

I would like to propose the dismissal of Veekit

as the Chief Executive of Next Innovation.

I object.

(I'm going back to Next.)

I want to see the way each of them looks at me.

(So that's how they have all been looking at me.)

Vee.

Granddad, may I?

What are the reasons for this need to remove me from office?

You abandoned the company.

You come and go as you please.

How can we leave our company to your immature whims?

That is not enough reason.

What about the revenue,

and everything Veekit has done for us?

Are we going to conveniently ignore that?

If we're looking at it impartially,

it's me who always makes sure we have successful turnovers.

But I'll keep it fair here, so...

Does anyone want to give my Grandpa some more reasons?

As a partner,

I think Mr. Veekit's business approach is too self-indulgent.

There were many occasions that I disagreed with him.

If it wasn't for Mr. Chanon, I would have left a long time ago.

Thank you.

I agree, Mr. Chanon.

He never listens to anyone and is self-important,

even when the money is from various investors.

Not to mention the incident from before

where his personal matters

got in the way and he missed the press conference.

Credibility is paramount for every investor.

But from what I heard,

I don't think I'm ready to work with a CEO with such behavior.

My investment isn't a small fee,

and I sure didn't mean for it to build a playground

for a child like Veekit to run around in.

As your major shareholder at the moment,

I second this motion to remove Veekit from office

and recommend Chanon as the new CEO.

I second that.

I also second that.

I second that.

I second that.

I second that.

I second that.

I second that.

I second that.

I second that.

What do you say, Dad?

I also second the motion.

What?

Is he voting himself out?

If I must vote, I'd vote for Chanon.

Because I now understand what an awful CEO I have been.

If I were an application,

I'd say I was an app where the program wasn't yet perfectly in place.

The first version of me might not be really good.

But I am willing to receive all of your feedback.

Even if some feedback is ridden with bias,

like the one from Miss Tanya.

Your feedback is very serious and thorough,

especially so, considering that we have never even once worked together.

But then again,

an application is often flawed and needs constant updates.

So am I.

I will keep improving into a better version of myself

and become the Veekit that is good enough for everyone.

But you're not ready to—

Please have faith in me,

the same way Big Noi still has faith enough to invest with me.

As a company, I'd like to ask you all

to consider a second chance for Veekit.

But you must prove yourself as soon as possible, Veekit.

I vote for Veekit.

Me, too.

I vote for Veekit.

What about you, Mr. Kitdanai and the rest?

Aren't you going to vote?

Hold on.

Are you sure this is how you want to play this?

Dad.

Are you really going to let some pretty words

win over Chanon's 10-year determination?

We can discuss this at home.

No, we can't!

I won't allow you to overlook Chanon anymore.

All one child does is talk, while another does all the work.

One disappears and nearly ruins everything,

while the other still does all the work.

Even if a simple apology cuts it and all is easily forgiven,

my son still has to do all the work.

She's right.

I've always been with Mr. Chanon.

He barely has time for himself.

There's nothing he does for his own gain.

Thank you, Miss Eas, Mrs. Sroyphet,

for speaking up for me.

But we will heed my Grandpa's advice

and see if this company rots,

crumbles,

and falls apart

from the inside out.

Maybe then you will come crawling back, begging me to fix it.

Please be assured that this will be Veekit's only chance.

If he can make good on his promise,

including the matter with Big Noi,

Veekit will continue to manage this company.

Thank you for coming today.

I hope you all continue

to support this company to the best of your ability.

Veekit, stay and talk to me.

Wait outside.

Yes.

Yes?

I'm sick of this meeting room.

I understand.

It's been over 30 years. I long for a rest.

Now, why don't you go take a walk with me?

Where have you been?

I'm really sorry, Granddad.

I...

You found your mother?

You knew?

You disappeared with those photos that day.

Those photos of Neeraaumpan and...

Mirin.

Her name is Mirin.

Mirin is the one who has been taking care of Mom all this time.

How is your mother?

She has Alzheimer's.

She knew her condition was deteriorating.

She thought it might be for the best if she disappeared.

It was always hard on her to stay

in our house all alone without your father.

I'm taking care of her right now.

All these years, you've been looking out for me

because I don't have both my father and mother.

I know it must have been tiring for you

while all I did was blindly ask myself why my mother abandoned me.

But I understand now.

Granddad.

From now on,

I'll do everything for Next, and for you.

You can see now?

I'm happy for you.

I can.

Whatever you're planning,

I'll warn you that it won't be easy.

I don't know why you want to steal Veekit away.

Maybe because he's good-looking, or because he's rich,

or you want to leech off of him for the rest of your life.

It won't be as simple as you hope.

Please keep your delusions to yourself.

Because there is no way we're thinking the same thing.

Don't you dare.

If you want a fight,

I'm not one to back down.

I'm only trying to be respectful of this workplace.

Why don't you try and act half as noble

as the clothes you're wearing for once?

Hey!

When she started to remember me, she called out my name.

After that, I slowly gained my sight back.

The doctor did say it was caused by emotional distress.

But now that I can see again,

it just makes me feel really bad.

I can see the way Non, Aunt Sroy,

and all those people

who look at me like they don't like me at all.

Unlike you.

Chanon hasn't always looked at you that way.

It's my fault for turning him into this.

He must have been really disappointed today.

I just want him to understand.

Sroyphet, too.

She must have put that thought in her son's head

because she also believes I don't love her or care for her.

I'll try to talk to them.

Maybe things will get better.

Yes.

From here on out, it's all up to you how you deal with it.

About work, your mother, and Chanon.

I hope everything turns out alright.

No matter what happens, you two are like brothers to each other.

Yes.

Let me know if you need help with your mother.

Once everything is settled down, I'd love to meet her.

Even if she doesn't remember me.

Yes.

I won't disappoint you, Granddad.

Good.

Very good.

They are all traitors!

We should fire all of them.

Isn't it strange that Veekit chose today of all day to come back here?

What if he already found Neeraaumpan?

If he did find her,

that means he doesn't have any more weaknesses.

It seems he's really ready to come back.

I can tell from his gesture that he's down for a fight now.

We need to find another way.

Everyone might have voted for Veekit,

but I noticed that some of them only did it for Mr. Prapob.

The look on their faces was obvious

they don't even trust Veekit anymore.

You're right.

The only reason he has the nerve to stay

is because he can't see their faces.

Non.

I think we still have a chance.

We have to do whatever it takes to get rid of Veekit now.

Hold on.

There's a programmer on your side.

Manit?

Yes.

Tell him to come see me as soon as possible.

What are you planning to do?

Trust me, Non.

You don't need to know this.

Just tell him to meet me.

I'll count on you and Tanya to take care of business.

I'll see what else I can do about Neeraaumpan.

I think there's a big chance Mirin is her minion.

Mirin?

I don't think she has anything to do with this.

I know her.

She's not someone who—

Are you defending her?

Do you like her?

I already asked Kem to keep an eye on Mirin.

What?

Why?

Mom—

Because I know she definitely knows where Neeraaumpan is.

You stay out of this.

I'll deal with it.

Mom.

Just please don't hurt Mirin.

Chanon!

Mom!

Don't get someone else involved in this.

This is between me and Veekit.

Then, this is between Neeraaumpan and me.

If she comes back,

she is to inherit all of Veekit's father's fortune.

We will only be further away from everything.

I don't want you to do something you shouldn't.

Let me handle this.

Please.

You and I have been overlooked all this time, Non.

How can I let you do this alone?

Just get Manit to meet Tanya like she asked.

We don't have time to be arguing like this.

Here it is.

Smells great, doesn't it?

Dig in.

Thanks.

Something on your mind?

You look out of it.

Do I?

Yeah.

I don't know.

I'm just wondering if I have to go on living like this forever.

No career growth, just the same as always.

It's not bad, but it's getting boring.

I don't know what I need in life.

What are you even saying?

I don't get it.

Well, do you know what you want in life?

Nope.

I just want to eat good food like this

every day for the rest of my life.

It's good.

Yes?

Me?

Yes.

Of course.

Alright.

I'll see you.

Yes. Goodbye.

What is it?

Hello, Miss Tanya.

You wanted to see me?

Yes.

Sit down.

What is it? Why did you have Mr. Chanon call me?

I want to know if we have any application that collects users' data.

We do.

Normally, every application collects users' basic information.

Name, phone number, and email.

Some also collect their password and address.

Well,

would it be difficult to...

leak those data?

What if I, as the major shareholder of this company,

want thousands of users' data leaked?

Will that be possible?

You found Aunt Nee?

Do you really want to know?

The whole company has been waiting for you.

Of course I really want to know if it's finally over.

So, did you find her?

Did you finally fix your mommy issues?

What kind of man

uses other people's mommy issue just so he can get a little spotlight?

Amazing work. Just amazing.

When will you understand that she abandoned you?

Is that the only button you know to press?

Look.

You've never heard me bring up how Granddad doesn't want you

or how the company never appreciates you, have you?

Vee!

Non!

You honestly didn't have to do any of this.

It's just a company.

"Just a company"?

For you, it is just a company.

You never have to try so hard for it.

But for me, it's my life's work.

I have to study hard, work hard,

take care of this silly brat all the time

just to get a little approval from Grandpa.

You can't see, can you?

But do you know what it's like not being seen?

It's exhausting.

Freaking exhausting!

V Well, then.

If you're so sick of it all,

just take it.

I really believe it.

I really believe you can do it.

But please,

just don't get my loved ones involved.

Leave my mother out of this.

Leave Mirin out of this.

Don't hurt other people just because you're hurt.

Directed by Ekkasit Trakulkasemsuk and Pantip Vibultham

You done?

Make sure the data that gets out

is only the one under Veekit's responsibility.

Hey.

Are we really doing this?

It's an order from the major shareholder, best friend of the future CEO.

What do you think?

This mistake really happened under my watch.

Excuse me! Let me through!

I might not be able to trace where that mistake is rooting from for now,

but I'll take full responsibility.

This could hurt the company.

The very company I've been building.

Then why don't you rebuild it from scratch?

For everybody's sake, I'll resign
