Laorchan.

Ma'am.

Excuse me.

Ma'am.

Ma'am.

Ma'am.

Ma'am. Wait.

Ma'am.

Wait.

Excuse me.

Ma'am.

Ma'am.

Who are you?

How do you know my name?

Ma'am.

Wait.

Ma'am.

Wait.

Ma'am.

Ma'am.

What?

No.

No!

Sun.

Can you meet me at Café de Flore?

PARIS, FRANCE

Are you well?

Yes.

Sun.

I dreamed about that woman again.

I dreamed that

I walked into the woods

just like every time I had this dream.

Why do you keep having the same dream?

Who is that woman anyway?

I've never seen her face.

In my dream,

I'm always chasing after her.

What's weird is that

you're always chasing after her.

But you've never seen anything along the way?

Laor.

Let's go back to Viengphukhum.

It's not the right time, Sun.

When will be the right time, Laor?

We'll go back once we've found

the Ajna Chakra Necklace.

There he is.

-Catch him. -Hey!

Come on then.

Take this!

Get him!

Get him!

Take that!

Hey.

Watch out.

Take this!

Hey!

Take that!

Watch out!

After him!

Come on! Let's go!

Should I handle this?

I'll deal with him myself.

Hey.

We've got you now.

Hand me the necklace.

Come and get it if you want it.

Enough with this nonsense.

You and me.

Let's sort this out.

Gosh. Your Highness.

Phu! You shot that in my mouth.

The water got in my mouth and my eyes.

Gosh.

This remote-controlled car got through

your impenetrable security system.

The system needs a lot of work.

I got through using a toy car.

-If the necklace really gets stolen, -Shortwave signals interfere with the…

will you take responsibility?

My boss went easy on you earlier.

He could've finished you off.

Right. I see.

I wonder if you're more afraid of your boss here

or the one in Bangkok.

Well…

You're actually a good fighter.

Your skills are unmatched.

That's better.

The security system is not fit for purpose.

We'll have to find a company that can do better.

Thank you, Phu,

for taking the time to help us test our security system.

It's an honor to serve you, Your Highness.

I'll be in Bangkok next week.

I want a night out.

Jane, Noon, and Bow are waiting. Hurry.

Who are they?

How can you not know them? They're super popular.

You Casanova.

I'll introduce you.

-Deal. -Deal.

Wachira, give Phu a ride to the airport.

Thank you, Your Highness.

Good luck.

BANGKOK, THAILAND

Give me your bag.

Give it to me.

Hey!

Let me go!

Help! Somebody help!

Let go of me!

-Help! -Hey!

Gosh!

Hey!

Get lost!

Get out of here!

Go!

Scram!

Go!

Get out of here!

Let's go.

Thank you.

No problem.

Thank you.

Thank you again for helping me earlier.

Without you, I don't know what would've happened.

We're lucky those two were just petty thieves.

Otherwise, we would've been in trouble.

So why are you wandering around here alone?

I just arrived in Bangkok.

I was going to stay at my friends',

but I can't find their house.

Are you from out of town?

I'm from out of town too.

I'm from Nong Waeng in Udon Thani.

Where are you from?

I'm from Paris.

I see. You're from Takhli, Nakhon Sawan.

It's Paris.

Not Takhli.

Paris. It's in France.

My gosh!

So glamorous.

So if you can't find your friend's house,

where will you stay?

I'll probably stay at a hotel for now.

I don't have much money.

I was going to stay with my friend and find a job.

I see. How about this?

If you want to save money, you can stay with me tonight.

If you like it, you can stay and we can split the rent.

What do you say?

My gosh.

Do you mean it?

Merci beaucoup.

What?

My place isn't a coop.

I--

My name is Veena.

I'm Laorchan.

Or you can call me

Laor.

Okay.

Come on. Follow me.

Let's go.

LAMDUAN APARTMENT

Do you want coffee?

Make it a strong one.

I got us deep-fried dough sticks.

Okay.

Here's your coffee.

Here you go.

How many hours do you plan to sleep?

Maybe five.

I have an afternoon shift at the restaurant

and a shift at One Mart at 9:00 p.m.

Gosh.

You need to rest.

If you only get four or five hours of sleep a night,

it will take a toll on your body.

What can I do?

I have to support my parents and siblings.

Not to mention my nieces and nephews.

I am so jealous of you.

You have a good job that pays well.

Goodness.

There's news about those handsome Jutathep men.

"M.L. Phuthaneth of JT Center."

I have the biggest crush on him.

So…

What does it say?

Jeez, you sure seem interested in the local news.

Do you like them too?

Yes. So…

What's going on with that family?

"M.L. Phuthaneth of JT Center

takes the lead among the Jutathep boys

in preparing a birthday party for their great-grandma.

All the ladies will have to wait outside the palace gate for this event

because only close family members are invited to the party."

Damn. What a shame.

I'm going to quit my job.

What?

Why?

You've only been there a month.

Also, your boss adores you.

Is there a problem?

No.

I just found a more interesting job.

Guys.

Mr. Phuthaneth is coming.

Make sure everything is taken care of.

I'll go check on things over there.

Hello.

Hey.

Get out of the way.

What are you doing standing here?

Gosh.

Thank you.

Thank you.

I'm sorry.

Can't you see I'm setting the table?

I have to get things ready

before Mr. Phu gets here.

If you have nothing to do, help me set the table.

If you don't know how, you can go sweep the floor.

Or else, Mr. Phuthaneth will give us a scolding once he gets here.

Gosh.

Hey.

Have you never worked for Mr. Panas before?

No.

This is my first gig.

Why?

That's why

you don't know the rules around here.

When you work in the palace,

you must dress appropriately.

Look at your bow tie.

You must make sure both loops are the same size.

Like this.

And fix your sleeves.

Both sleeves must be pulled all the way down,

and the cuffs must be buttoned.

Goodness.

I can do it myself.

Who are you anyway?

I am M.L. Phuthaneth

Jutathep.

Gosh.

I see.

I'm so sorry.

I've just remembered that

I'm needed in the kitchen.

Please excuse me.

Wait, miss.

Yes?

You dropped your handkerchief.

Right.

That's mine.

You must take good care

of your personal items.

Can't you see there are people walking around?

The floor is dirty.

What if you can't get all the stains out?

Yes, sir.

What's your name?

I'm Laorchan.

Wait, Mr. Phuthaneth.

It's just that

my handkerchief is all dirty now.

Can I have it back?

Mr. Phuthaneth.

Mr. Phu.

Gosh.

Here you go.

This croissant is fresh from the oven.

Gosh. It smells so good.

Thank you, Sroi.

Well, well.

My parents are as in love as ever.

Goodness.

Kan.

Get over here and give me a kiss.

Once Wachira asks me for your hand in marriage,

I won't get to kiss you anymore.

Come here. Get over here.

-All right. -Come here.

That's my girl.

All right.

Phu.

What's up?

You seem cheerful.

That must mean the preparations are going well.

Right?

Yes. Mr. Panas' team is getting the venue ready for the party.

Everything should be ready by noon.

We'll start bringing the food out around 4:00 p.m.

Okay.

It's wonderful

that you all take turns throwing parties for your great-grandma.

Your cousins did a great job,

so you must make sure

that this party is a success as well.

-That's right. -Okay.

Goodness. It's hard to believe that

the caterer actually lived up to your expectations for your first party.

Wait.

What's that?

Is this a girl's handkerchief, Phu?

That's not your sister's handkerchief.

Right.

Kan doesn't have

a laced handkerchief like that.

That's right.

Well, you see…

I…

I want to ask you two to come with me to Great-Granma Orn's house.

You too, Kan.

He's acting suspicious.

Mom. Dad.

Let's go.

All right.

Madam, there's a letter for you.

A letter for me?

Yes, Madam.

Who is it from?

It's from Vilairumpa, Madam.

Vilairumpa?

Vilairumpa.

Vilairumpa.

MAY THOSE WHO BREAK THEIR PROMISES BE DAMNED FOR ETERNITY

Is anyone there?

Get the car ready.

Get the car ready. I need to see Vilairumpa.

Is anyone there?

Hurry up. Do you hear me?

Get the car ready.

-Madam. -Bring the car.

I need to see Vilairumpa.

-Grandma. -Get the car ready.

-Grandma. -Get the car.

-Nuanchawee, what happened? -Chai Lek.

This letter came to her.

Calm down, Grandma.

Phu.

Take me to see Vilairumpa.

And Maratee too. I need to talk to them.

They can't damn us like this.

Hurry. Take me to see them.

-Grandma. -Great-Grandma.

I'll fetch Dr. Chat.

Hurry.

This letter.

There's no return address and no postage stamp.

Who delivered it?

The guard gave it to me.

I saw that it was addressed to Madam,

so I gave it to her.

MAY THOSE WHO BREAK THEIR PROMISES BE DAMNED FOR ETERNITY

Hey.

How is she doing, Dr. Chat?

Her blood pressure is low.

She's feeling tired and lightheaded.

She needs rest.

I left her medicine with the nurse.

I think

we should postpone Great-Grandma's birthday party.

I agree.

We'll wait for Ruj and Taew to return from Spain.

Okay.

In that case, you need to talk to your parents, Saruj.

We'll find the time when the whole family is here.

The ministry is sending you to work in Switzerland soon, right?

Yes, Uncle.

Good. We can wait for Uncle Phee and Aunt Paengkwan

to return from Japan as well.

Jak, don't forget to ask Res and Korn

when they will be back.

Those two are so hard to reach.

One is busy with ballet rehearsals.

The other is busy making movies.

You should do it, Chat.

You should call Ked.

She can get Res back from France.

Great-Grandma's birthday party isn't the problem.

The problem is Aunt Maratee and Aunt Vilairumpa.

Great-Grandma asked us to look for them.

But where can we find them?

I think

we should let karma do its job.

Aunt Maratee assaulted Aunt Krongkaew

and it was Aunt Rumpa

who poisoned Great-Grandma Eied.

What they did was…

horrifying.

I think Great-Grandma might want to see them

to tell them she has forgiven them

and to let bygones be bygones.

But I think

she might want to make good on the promise

that the two families made to each other.

She might want her grandchildren to help

unite the two families through marriage.

Therefore,

you all had better be prepared.

I believe

love cannot be forced.

If fate wants a Jutathep to fall in love with a Dhevaprom,

then it will happen naturally.

We don't have to try

to force it to happen.

More importantly and I want you all to bear this in mind,

if any more letters come for Great-Grandma,

I want you to check them first.

Do not let her see them.

Hello, Mr. Phu.

Hi, Wisarn.

-Hello, Mr. Phu. -Hello, Mr. Phu.

Hey, Man. Hi, Kanchid.

Gosh.

Jaree! Mr. Phu is here!

Goodness.

-Jeab. Jang. Hurry. -Yes, ma'am.

-Hello, Mr. Phu. -Hello, Mr. Phu.

-Hello, Mr. Phu. -Hello, Mr. Phu.

-Right, Ling. -Yes, sir.

Have you received your overtime check yet?

I have, sir.

How are you, Jang?

Is your leg all better after your fall?

You can take a couple of days off.

I'm all better now, Mr. Phu.

Jeab.

I'm looking into our employee benefits policy.

I'll make sure that

you can apply for a mortgage.

Thank you, sir.

Thank you so much, sir.

You take such good care of us.

That's because

you all work hard and give this company your all.

JT Group wouldn't be where it is

without all of you.

You are good to me,

so I'm good to you as well.

Can you bring me coffee?

Right away, sir.

He's kind, handsome, and loaded.

He's perfect.

I think you should tell him.

Gosh.

I'm too scared.

I know you're scared, but you have to tell him.

Mr. Phu seems to be in a good mood.

This is your chance.

Didn't you hear him?

"You are good to me,

so I'm good to you as well."

My gosh.

Tell him.

I am good to you,

but it doesn't mean I'll let you quit.

But I…

I really need to, sir.

Tell me the reason.

You see…

I…

I'm getting married.

Getting married?

Is marriage really necessary?

If it is,

how come I'm not married?

And since I'm not married,

it means you don't need to be married!

It's really important to me, sir.

I am 39 years old.

I'm 39 years, 9 months, and 9 days old.

If I put it off any longer, I'll be 40 when I get married.

I can't take it!

If I wait until then,

I'll be an old and wrinkled bride.

I'm not stopping you.

Go ahead and get married.

What?

Do you mean it, sir?

I can't stop you from starting a family.

It's just a shame.

I don't know where I'll find someone

who makes coffee as well as you do.

I'm not leaving right away.

I'll stay for another month to help train the new secretary.

I'll find someone competent

who can make coffee just like I do.

Just make sure she's not

as sassy as you.

Gosh.

Don't tease me, sir.

Congratulations in advance.

I'll be the guest of honor at your wedding

if you'd like.

My goodness! Are you serious, sir?

You're the best boss in the whole world.

I'm so happy!

Gosh.

-No! -Jaree!

I'm so sorry.

I'm really sorry, sir.

I'll take your shirt and have it washed for you.

I'll bring you a new shirt.

I'll have this one cleaned and make it as good as new.

I'm really sorry.

MANAGER

Can you make a call and cancel everything?

Did something happen?

We've already prepared everything.

It's not your team's fault.

We'll compensate you for everything.

Can you send over 30 sets of the food you prepared to the palace?

Yes, Mr. Phu.

Can you have that female staff member who just started this morning

deliver the food?

You mean Laorchan? She finished her shift already.

Should I call her back?

Do you quit?

Yes.

Listen. You've only been working at Sky Catering for a week.

Why quit so soon?

Well,

it doesn't excite me anymore.

This is work, not a singing contest.

It doesn't have to be exciting.

I know what I'm doing.

I already got a new job.

Hang on.

What's the job? How did you get it so quickly?

A library manager.

Gosh.

That sounds so exciting.

You'll be sitting around guarding books all day.

On a second thought,

I guess it suits you.

Yes.

I can do research while I work.

Right.

I'll work there until I get the job that I really want.

What? You're going to keep looking?

You've already quit three jobs.

Where do you really want to work?

Tell me.

Her address is in her job application.

Laor.

You'll start working at the library tomorrow, right?

That's right.

You can work late tonight.

I'll make sure to lock the door, so don't worry.

All right. I'll see you later.

See you.

Would you like some grilled meatballs?

-Sure. -How many do you want?

All of them.

Goodness. Sure thing.

Miss.

Laor.

Sun.

Are you well?

Yes.

Let's go.

When did you get back?

I just got back. I came straight to see you.

Let's catch up.

Okay.

Thank you.

How are things over there?

Things are kind of gloomy.

King Rangsimun and Queen Chanta don't visit the people like they used to.

There are also rumors of the rebels hiding among the townsfolk.

You have to be careful.

You too.

Gosh.

Sir, my mom had me bring you your meatballs.

That's 300 baht, please.

We're being followed.

Here you go.

You can share these meatballs with your friends.

Really?

Gosh, you're awesome.

I hope you find a cute girlfriend.

The road is cut off.

The road is cut off, sir.

Copy that.

Protect the royal vehicle.

Don't let anyone get to the King and the Queen.

Hey.

Kill them all. Don't let anyone get away.

No!

Go after them! Go!

Let's go!

After them!

-Capture them. -Yes, sir.

Let's go.

Get them.

Over there.

On your knees.

Dad.

Dad. Mom.

Are you two all right?

Yes.

What happened?

The rebels ambushed us,

but we have things under control.

Satarasamee.

Escort the King and the Queen back to the palace.

Wachira and I will handle things here.

Get in there.

Get in.

Watch it.

Hurry up.

Stay there.

VIENGPHUKHUM PALACE, VIENGPHUKHUM

We can't just be on the defensive like this.

We need to eliminate those rebels.

Listen.

We need to think before we act.

Problems arising from differences of opinion

have always been there,

ever since the times of our ancestors.

Perhaps even longer than that.

I agree with Dad, Uncle.

We don't need to use violence to suppress the rebels.

Negotiation is our best option.

Who would we negotiate with?

The rebels always fight dirty.

If I hadn't made your parents

hide in the supply wagon

and you hadn't got there in time,

think what would've happened.

Could this be caused by the curse of Lord Naga Trinetr?

I know all of you are thinking what I'm thinking.

Lord Naga Trinetr is the Great Naga.

He was loved and worshipped by humans and gods alike.

If his death was brought about

by human desire and lust as the myth says,

it's only normal that he would hold a grudge against us.

It's a myth.

Myths are nothing but stories.

The rebels made this story up

to frighten the townsfolk.

I'm thinking the same thing, Prince Anucha.

However, evidence shows that

ever since the times of our ancestors,

there have been calamities

just as the curse of Lord Naga Trinetr foretold.

Then we need to prove it.

I'll go to Thailand to look into this.

Thailand?

What answer will you get from going there?

Someone will help us solve this mystery.

They will help us.

I'm sure of it.

What?

Hey.

Gosh. Sun.

You scared me.

Gosh.

What are you looking for?

It's the woman in a sarong that I always dream about.

She's gone.

What? There's no one here.

I didn't see anyone when I walked in.

What?

But…

Gosh.

Am I so worried I'm seeing things?

Damn it.

Anyway,

what are you doing here?

I have important news.

Who told you this?

My dad's former subordinate

works in Viengphukhum Palace.

He informed me that Prince Satarasamee

is coming to Thailand on a private trip.

-When? -I think within a couple of days.

Why is he coming here?

Is it for a holiday?

I doubt it.

There are rumors going around about the rebels.

This is hardly the time for the prince

to take a vacation abroad.

More importantly, his trip to Thailand

isn't just a regular trip.

It's highly confidential.

No one knows about this,

not even the people in Viengphukhum.

And the newspapers here

haven't caught wind of it either.

It's hard to guess where the prince will stay.

Is this such a big secret that you have to be in disguise?

It's for the prince's safety, Mr. Phu.

More importantly,

it's for my parents' safety.

If the rebels know I'm away,

the two of them might be in danger.

At least Uncle Anucha volunteered

to stay and protect them.

I just heard from Prince Anucha.

Everything is fine, Your Highness.

I came here

to learn the truth about the Ajna Chakra Necklace

and its influence over our reign in Viengphukhum.

The person who can help me is here.

But I don't know anything about this.

But you can take me to the person who does.

Again?

You can't get a new job every time you pick up a newspaper.

Listen.

This is the one job that I have to take.

What job is it this time?

It's my dream job.

Don't tell me

it's a job at JT Center.

That's right.

That's awesome.

Everything just worked out in your favor.

Let me see.

Here.

You're right.

You're so lucky.

You always get the job you want.

My gosh.

You'll be working as M.L. Phuthaneth's secretary.

I'm beyond jealous right now.

Hang on.

This ad is from three days ago.

What if he already found someone?

Shit.

Your coffee, sir.

-Jaree. -Yes?

If I can't find a new secretary today,

what then?

Goodness.

You just have to lower your expectations a little.

I guarantee you'll find someone.

No. If I can't find someone competent to replace you,

I won't let you quit.

That's not a threat.

I'm just letting you know.

I was born in Thailand,

but I went to study in America when I was little.

I can speak English very fluently

and I can also speak Thai like a native.

My name is Sumitra.

I like being a secretary.

I'm polite

and I'm also confident.

If you choose me,

you'll have someone very competent working for you.

Long live JT!

Long live JT!

I don't like to work with people,

so I chose to be a secretary

so I could work directly under my boss.

I'm agile and flexible.

I'm playful.

I can steal any man's heart,

including

my boss's.

Jaree.

Excuse me. Please come with me.

Wait, sir. Hold on.

Please give me one more chance.

We have one more candidate.

I have an appointment. Your time is up, Jaree.

Sir, wait!

Sir, please don't go!

Please give me another chance, sir!

Maybe Mr. Phu was just joking.

As if.

You talk like you don't know him.

There has to be someone

who is as perfect as me.

Hello.

I'm here to apply for the position of Mr. Phuthaneth's secretary.

My dear.

You're my last hope

to finally get hitched.

Well…

Here.

Have a seat.

Sit down, dear.

There you go. Stay right there.

I can finally get married.

Yes!

All right.

Yes!

Do you have to change your disguise every day, Your Highness?

Who knows?

There could be someone with malicious intentions in this room.

It's better to take precautions.

Right, Phu.

Let's drop the formality,

so we don't attract attention.

Sure, man.

It's Satarasamee.

Sorry. I got carried away.

You punk.

Gosh.

What's up, Jaree?

Sir, I have urgent news.

What is it?

I have found you

the perfect secretary.

You could enter her in a pageant for secretaries

and I guarantee she would win the crown.

She's a clear winner.

She's gorgeous.

So I'd like you to come in

to interview her yourself.

If she's that perfect,

why didn't you let me meet her this morning

instead of letting me talk to all those other people for hours?

Now I'm busy.

It's too late, Jaree.

Please ask her to leave.

But--

Sir!

I'll be his secretary until I'm old and grey.

Ma'am.

Excuse me.

Does Mr. Phuthaneth already have a new secretary?

Don't cry, Jaree.

What's wrong, Nujaree?

Go.

Well…

This is Ms. Sroifha.

She is Mr. Phuthaneth's mom.

She's the vice president of JT Center.

That's Ms. Kanthika, Mr. Phuthaneth's sister.

She's the director of Resource Management here.

This is Laorchan Pundheva.

She's applying to be Mr. Phu's secretary.

Hello.

Prince Anucha would like a word.

Yes, Uncle.

Some rebels snuck into the palace last night.

But don't worry.

My men were standing guard

and we captured all of them.

I'm interrogating them about their boss.

I'd really like to know

who their big boss is.

Does that mean they know where I am?

I think we might have a mole.

No one knows you're not at the palace

except those on the inside.

I'll hurry and take care of my business here.

Please look after my parents.

Don't you worry.

I'll protect the King and the Queen

with my life.

Tell me

who your big boss is!

Tell me!

Let's go.

Sir.

Thank you.

It says here

that you obtained your diploma in France.

How long did you live there?

Thirteen years. My dad moved there when I was ten years old.

How many languages do you speak?

Four. I can speak Thai, English, French, and German.

Do you come back

to Thailand every summer?

Do you have any relatives here?

No. My dad got ill after he moved to France

and I had to take care of him.

He already passed away.

Did you also choose

to study the history of Southeast Asia?

Yes, because the history of this region interests me.

I was born here.

Though I grew up in France,

I have a bond with my motherland.

How can we truly know ourselves

if we don't know anything about our roots?

I'm done here. Would you like to add anything, Phu?

I'm satisfied with the interview,

but I'd like to test her skills a bit.

It's too sweet.

Don't use white sugar.

Did you put syrup in this?

The coffee is not hot.

This is too hot.

Is the water at 94 degrees?

Put more milk in the coffee.

How much milk did you put in here?

This is good.

Yes!

So has she passed the test?

Nujaree.

I'm sorry, sir.

I got a bit too excited.

But I think she nailed it since the first cup.

What are you talking about?

Every cup of coffee

was brewed with water at 94 degrees

using 8 g of roasted arabica coffee beans

which were extracted into 30 cc of water,

making this the perfect espresso shot

that contains both body and heart.

I didn't add any sugar or syrup

because you don't like that.

But I did add 30 cc of milk

because that's how you like it.

Every cup I made was the same.

I can confirm that.

I taught the recipe

to Laorchan myself

even before she had her interview.

Or did you change how you take your coffee

without telling me?

I like my coffee the way I've always liked it.

That will never change.

In the time before the Buddha,

there was a naga named Lord Naga Trinetr.

How is the Ajna Chakra Necklace

connected to Lord Naga Trinetr?

It's magnificent.

No wonder so many people want it.

Is it true that he put a curse

on the people of Pimpa Kingdom?

I'd be happy to do it myself.

But it's hard.

I majored in Southeast Asian history.

I can do it.

Were you able to decipher the inscription?

I was able to interpret some details regarding the curse

but where it talks about the time, I'm not sure.

Laorchan might be able to help.

Yes, sir.
