Original subtitles

Did you get into an argument at home?

It was so serious that you don't want to go back, right?

I'll find you a place to stay for now.

Si?

It's okay. I probably shouldn't bother you any longer.

Si.

(Dad)

I know.

Then why on earth would you want me to choose him?

Why root for him?

Si... Si.

Si...

What was the argument about? Please tell me.

I might be able to help you if I know what it was about.

What happened?

My dad

wanted me to go out with Tassanai

even though he knew that man was going to rape me.

I don't understand what he was thinking.

Why did he do that?

(Liar)

(Liar)

Uh...

Mom, this is Simala.

- This is my mom. - Hello.

Simala?

Who is she, Dom?

Um...

Si and I, we're dating.

Simala?

You're very pretty.

The thing is

Si needs to stay here tonight.

Oh, is that so?

Is it okay if I talk to her for a bit?

Sure.

She's the owner of a clothing factory?

I thought you brought home some random woman.

Her appearance was pleasant from what I saw.

But she's dressed too plainly.

Is it okay to let her see the state of our house?

She knows about the foreclosure.

Doesn't she find that repulsive?

No, Mom.

I've discussed it with her. She understands.

She's so nice to you. I guess she must really like you.

If she still agrees to go out with you,

does that mean she'll help us out with the house and debt?

I'll talk to her about that later.

But you don't mind her staying here tonight, do you?

Why would I

if she's going to help us get back on our feet?

We have to take good care of her.

Help her in any way we can for the time being.

See? You've grown into a handsome man.

That's why someone as rich and pretty as her fell for you.

And our family can finally get our old lives back.

Si.

Noon!

Noon, are you okay?

Noon, are you okay?

Leave me alone!

It's my dad. Let's just go.

- Mind your own business! - Si.

- Let's go, Si. - Stay away!

- Noon! - Get away from me!

- Noon, don't! - Can't you?

- Come on! - Are you stupid or something?

I told Mom we were dating just now

so that she'd let you stay the night.

Otherwise, it'd be a much longer conversation.

You're okay with that, aren't you?

I am.

And I didn't tell her everything about you.

I only told her your family owns a clothing factory

just like you told me when we first met.

I think it should work better in your favor.

Oh, and those.

You don't mind wearing my clothes, do you?

No, thank you very much.

Anyway, you can sleep in this room.

The other ones are being used for storage.

Oh? Then where are you sleeping?

I can crash on the couch downstairs.

But I've already bothered you enough.

You should sleep in your bedroom.

Oh, it's okay. You can stay.

We can sleep in here together.

Uh...

Are you comfortable sleeping like this?

Sure.

Are you?

I can sleep downstairs or on the couch if you want.

Don't bother.

I'm comfortable here.

I didn't want to be a bother, so I asked.

Oh, I see.

But let me know if you change your mind.

Si,

where are you?

I miss you.

I'm sorry.

Lately,

you've been trying very hard to set me and Tassanai up.

You planned it, didn't you?

- What are you talking about? - You purposely lured me

to be alone with him

so he could sexually harass me.

Am I right?

How could you do this?

I was right about you.

No!

Don't!

Help!

Si,

I'm sorry.

And...

Here's your compensation for what I did the other day.

Don't do this.

Do what?

What exactly am I doing?

You are trying to buy me.

I don't get it. Do rich people think

they can treat others however they want?

But just so you know,

Tassanai attempted to sexually harass me.

I know.

Then why on earth would you want me to choose him?

Why root for him?

Are you becoming obsessed with money

like Ruja too?

Why would you want me dating the man who harassed me?

- How could you say that? - I did it for you, Si!

How could you? How much did he offer you?

It's not like that!

- Why did you do it? - Please, listen to me!

You can't sleep?

I'm hungry.

Do you want to go with me to get something to eat?

This is actually posh.

The price's been going up constantly for the past two years.

It also says on the side of the cup

you're supposed to add vegetables and meat so it's nutritious.

But how can you afford it? Everything's expensive.

Some people promised to lower living expenses,

but no one's ever been able to keep their word.

It's just like you said.

Look. This isn't food for poor people at all.

Besides,

you don't look like someone who has nothing.

I'm sorry. I didn't mean to make you feel bad.

But honestly,

when I first saw your house

and your family photos,

I could tell you probably used to be well-off.

But then I just assumed

you ran into a problem

and needed money to get your house back.

What happened to your family, Dom?

Do you mind telling me?

My family used to

be well-off like you said.

Mom owned a boutique that sold brand-name products.

Dad was an investor and a money lender.

But everything changed

after he got

addicted to gambling.

But at least

you had a better start at life in the first place.

But look at me.

I was born poor

and will always be poor.

I don't know which is worse.

Going broke

or always being poor.

But I believe

you'll be able to restore everything to its former glory.

This is it, the truth about my family.

Back then,

I didn't know how to tell you.

And it caused you to be upset with me so many times.

I just felt

that I wouldn't be able to look after you.

So I didn't want you to waste your time with me.

I'm sorry.

You shouldn't have met someone like me.

I don't understand you at all.

It's me who should be apologizing to you.

It's me who's been

lying to you about myself after all this time.

It's okay.

And...

what about you?

What are you going to do now?

Huh? Tassanai tried to rape Si?

So she ran away from home?

Has Ruja found out about this?

No, I haven't told her anything.

I'm worried there might be a problem if she tells Tassanai Si's missing.

Huh?

Why do you sound like you're waiting for Si to come back,

then hand her over to him?

I just don't want things to get out of hand.

Let's wait for her to come back, and then we can talk about it.

Yeah. That's a good way of thinking.

Because if you're angry with Tassanai

and call off all of our plans, we're doomed.

We'd leave empty-handed,

and Si wouldn't get anything either.

Tassanai probably didn't actually do anything of that sort.

It's bound to happen when a man and a woman are alone together.

They might get a bit touchy-feely.

He probably touched her by accident

and startled Si.

She thought she'd get raped and ran back to tell you.

Just wait for her to come back,

talk to her nicely and persuade her slowly.

Everything will be sorted out.

So where has Si gone off to?

Why didn't she come home?

She's never gone missing before.

How is she handling this? And where is she?

What are you standing there for? Go and find her.

Stop being so calm already.

I'm about to go and find her.

You never shut your yap.

Hey, I have no hand in this.

I'll go and help him find Si.

Hey, wait up!

Don't worry about her, Mom. She'll come back.

She's tough. She'll be okay.

Oh? Si!

Where have you been?

Oh, you were gone all night.

Do you know how worried I was?

Where were you?

I couldn't reach you at all.

Did your phone run out of battery? Or did you turn it off?

Right. Have you told your dad? He's out looking for you.

It was nothing, Mom.

I already told Dad I was coming home.

Just let me be alone for a bit, okay?

Hang on.

Come here.

Are you sure nothing happened?

I told you she'd be back.

Worry about yourself first. You haven't even eaten, have you?

Why worry about her?

I guess I really have to leave this lilypad house.

Si! Hold it right there.

Why did you pack your bag?

- Where are you going? - I have to go, Mom.

Wait. I'm not letting you leave.

- Please let me go! - No!

You've never left home.

You've lived here your whole life. Where are you going?

Tell me if there's anything! Please!

I can help you!

You won't understand! I have to leave!

Stop! Why won't I understand?

If you tell me, then I will!

But you refuse to talk. That's why we don't understand each other!

- Let go of me, Mom! - No!

Just let her go!

- No! - Mom!

Ked, help me stop her! Don't let her go!

- Let her go, Mom! - No.

I won't let you go, Si!

- Mom! - Please listen to me, Si!

Not yet! Please give me a chance!

Mom!

This has something to do with your dad, doesn't it?

He forced you to do something, didn't he?

I'll go and talk to him!

From now on, you don't have to follow his orders anymore!

I'll deal with him

so you can finally be happy!

I promise!

I'll do it!

- Okay? - Mom,

you won't understand.

I really have to go. I can't stay here anymore.

- Why? I don't understand. - I really can't stay.

It's our family.

- Mom. - Where are you going?

- You've never left home before. - Mom.

Mom, come on.

- Si, no! - Mom.

Why do you have to leave?

- Mom, that's enough! - Why, Si?

Mom, that's enough!

Ked!

Mom, no!

Ked, why are you holding me back?

Go and stop her!

Tell her to stay!

Don't you see? She'll never listen!

She's probably found somewhere better.

That's why she doesn't want to stay. Don't you understand?

I do!

And you have to as well. I raised you two to love each other.

You have to get her back. Why did you stop me?

Don't you love your sister?

Why did you say that? Don't you love her?

Mom, this is Simala.

Her appearance was pleasant from what I saw.

But she's dressed too plainly.

Keep going.

A little further.

Keep going. That's it.

That's it?

Yes, I'll move it somewhere else for safety.

Oh, okay.

- Oh. - Si,

you really are beautiful.

You're dressed nicely, and you have a magnificent aura.

You really are the daughter of the owner of a clothing factory.

Thank you, ma'am.

I'm afraid I'll have to take advantage of your kindness

and stay for a while.

Oh.

It's no problem at all.

You can stay as long as you want.

And please call me Sawad.

Thank you, Sawad.

You can go and wait inside.

Mom, where's Dad?

Huh? Who are you?

Dad,

this is Si. She'll be staying with us for a while.

Hello.

Right.

You can go upstairs.

Okay.

Oh.

Is she one of the socialites your mother told you to pin down?

Isn't she?

Gee.

What? Did I say something wrong?

Your mother already planned for you

to land yourself a socialite at one of those events

so you could con them out of their money.

I know about it. I hear things.

And have you slept with her yet? Is that why you brought her home?

Anyway, I don't give a darn.

Did you get any money? Can you give me some?

Can you?

Noon, leave him alone.

It's you who should leave me alone.

- Dom, go and check on Si. - Yes, Mom.

What is this?

Ugh. Darn it.

Si,

you heard what Dad said...

I did.

I barely made it up the stairs.

That's my dad.

He rambles

and is constantly drunk.

And...

I admit that

I actually went to those events

to find a woman to help me out with my family.

Then I found you.

I meant to take you on dates to make you feel nice

because I wanted you to help me.

I'm really,

really sorry.

How can I be mad at you?

I was doing the same thing.

We met each other

because we're broke. Isn't that right?

But...

after that,

I kept seeing you

because I really wanted to.

It feels nice when I'm with you.

I don't know what you're planning next.

But I want you to stay here for the time being

until you feel better.

Thank you very much.

After you.

You actually didn't have to give me a lift.

I just wanted to make sure Tassanai isn't following you.

Oh. Excuse me.

Thank you.

You know I've lied to you a lot.

I said I was a rich and a business owner

even though I had nothing in reality.

And I approached you

because I hoped to gain something from you,

yet you still chose to side with me.

It's okay.

I'm going to tell Boss about you,

Little Miss Conwoman.

You're going to get fired from the company.

You'd like to talk to me, Boss?

Boss,

- I have to tell you... - What do you want now?

Leave.

I have to tell you about something, right here, right now.

This woman's a fake socialite.

She lied to everyone and said her family's rich

and that she has a massive business.

She's been fooling everyone, including you,

for your money.

Are you done talking?

You don't believe me?

I have evidence. I took it today.

Delete all of the clips you have.

Or you'll be the one

getting a pink slip,

Joobjang.

But why?

Do as I said.

And if you show the clip to other people,

- I'm going to... - To what?

I'm going to fire you!

Boss...

And if you talk to anyone else about Si,

- Boss... - I'll hire a lawyer

to represent her and sue you

for nosing into her private matters.

Do you understand what I said?

- But she's trying to... - Do you understand?

Yes, Boss.

Si,

what I wanted to talk to you about

is that I don't know who else knows your secret, except for Joobjang.

I heard some people talking,

but they don't know I'm acquainted with you.

Let's do it this way.

Si,

I know about what happened to you at Madame Ouan's event.

What happened with Panpit,

the owner of the shoe factory who did that to you,

was the talk of the town.

Why haven't you told me about it?

I feel sorry for you, and I'm very worried about you.

At first,

I meant to blackmail you with your secret.

I'm really sorry.

But I have no intention of doing such a thing anymore.

I really want to take care of you, Si.

Thank you very much, Boss.

But letting me continue to work here

and paying me my salary

is already more than enough.

Si, you got into a conflict with that Panpit

because you were involved with her son, weren't you?

It's good you know

it's not just you who can provide for me.

Don't order me around.

And I'm asking you to understand me.

Why can't our salaries be as plentiful as our workload?

- Excuse me. - What?

- Can I ask you something? - Go ask someone else. We're busy.

What hole did you crawl out of?

Dad!

Boss,

that man is

my father.

He probably came here to look for me.

Can you tell him I quit and that I don't work here anymore?

Please?

Can I ask you something?

Did Simala come to work today?

Uh, ahem.

Simala's resigned.

She's not an employee here anymore.

I'm Krachang. I was her boss.

Oh, Krachang.

Do you know which company she's working for now?

I'm sorry, but I really don't know.

Besides, this is a workplace.

We shouldn't discuss private matters here.

Joobjang,

from now on, don't tell anyone Simala's still working here.

Do you understand?

Yes, Boss.

Si,

your father's looking for you, isn't he?

What happened?

And where are you staying right now?

At a friend's.

It's nothing, really.

Thank you so much for your help.

Sure.

Hey! Why did you leave through the back door and not the front?

Do you think because Boss has your back that I'd be scared of you?

You're a liar, a conwoman, and a fraud!

If I searched the dictionary

and you had the time to listen to my insults,

I'd find even more nasty words to describe the type of person you are.

You liar!

Are you finished?

I understand you, Joobjang.

Not about beauty, though.

I understand about poverty.

But even though I'm poor,

am I in the wrong for not wanting anyone else to know that I'm poor?

There are plenty of people

who are trying to act as if they have money, but they don't.

Isn't that a normal thing people do in this society?

The world is cruel

not only to people who aren't beautiful.

It's cruel to those who are poor as well.

And I have my own battles to fight.

And you do too.

You're not beautiful.

It's your problem,

not mine.

You don't have to call me a beauty with no brains. Why?

If you have a brain but you can't compete, what should you do?

Get some plastic surgery.

Your life might improve once you're beautiful.

Si, come back now! I'm going to slap you!

Si, come back! Let go of me!

- No! - Let go!

- No! - What do you want from me?

Pay for the lottery ticket first!

Just as we've discussed.

Give me 5261.

Okay. I'll go down to your stall at noon.

Get rich first so you can get plastic surgery.

Then you'll be able to compete against her!

Cough it up!

You tried to take a shortcut to wealth.

You started the game,

but you fell

into your own trap.

Don't shoot me. Please.

No.

Go home, Tiwa.

Get your daughter to marry me,

and I won't sue you.

Hey, Tiwa.

What's up with you?

Are you stressed about Si?

Boonnate,

do you know anyone who has enough money to deal with someone?

What? Who do you want to deal with?

Well, do you know anyone that fits the bill?

If I did, I would've borrowed their money ages ago.

I wouldn't have let myself be broke.

But now that I think about it, there might be someone.

The guy you borrowed money from.

What's his name again? Uh...

Tamnoon.

You seem like you really need the money.

Didn't you say you wanted to buy your daughter a birthday present?

You're so kind, Tamnoon.

- Thank you so much. - Don't worry about it.

Tamnoon?

The man who pretended to be kind

and lend money so easily to us poor people?

But when we can't pay it back,

he'd send people to beat us up for his own satisfaction.

Dad!

He was the reason Si had to witness something like that.

Daddy!

He was the reason for Si's sorrow and fixation

on needing to be rich.

Otherwise, poor people like us will never find happiness.

I'll never get involved with Tamnoon.

He's wronged me so many times.

Hey.

Sawad said your parents own a factory.

You're rich.

Can you give me some of your money?

Hey.

We live in the same house now. Your money is my money.

Give me some, won't you?

How much do you have on you? Let me have a look.

Hey!

What's all the fuss? I'm only asking for money.

We live in the same house. Sharing is caring.

- Let me have a look! - Uh...

- I'm sorry! - What's up with you?

Dom!

Dad, what did you do to her?

Nothing.

Your wife's rich. Just tell her to give me some of her money.

Get lost. Leave her alone.

What's with you?

You're rich, but you're so stingy.

I was asking nicely. What's all the fuss?

Darn it.

Si,

are you okay? Did he hurt you?

No, he didn't.

I guess my dad must've really startled you just now.

It's okay.

I apologize on his behalf.

He wasn't always like this.

But he changed

after my family went into debt.

How much is your family's debt?

Twenty million.

Twenty million?

And uh...

There's another thing I haven't told you about.

About why I had to

go and work with Panpit.

Well, she hired me

to do anything to prevent Surasit from seeing you again.

And I had to agree

because she paid the debt off for me

even though I didn't ask.

And she took the deed to my house.

As for now,

I'm still working for her

so I can get in and out of her company and her home.

So I can rescue you in time

in case she plans to do something to you.

Thank you.

This is it. That's how rich people are.

They can live the lives they want,

while poor people spend their entire lives

trying to solve problems simply because they have nothing.

Si,

I think I just came up with a good idea.
