Miss Dao. Stop! Don't do it.

- Don't you know that he has a girlfriend?
- I'll just take him from her!

What's hard about this?

Stop the ceremony!

Ms. Lee.

You have to serve me
until the day I die, not another woman.

What happened? Tell me!

I'll dump the body in the pond far away.

- So it wouldn't be linked to us.
- Aunt Ploy.

Look at this.

Ms. Ploy didn't trust Waythus and
told me to gather information about him

but now she's asked
to talk to him in the office.

I think everyone
is being suspicious right now.

I'll post this picture, Ms. Lee.

Your front-facing photo
looks so elegant. I like it.

Glamorous, isn't it?

Exactly.

Then post it.

But…

the Sweet Festival
at Camellia was very quiet.

The folks at the market told me
that people didn't go there at all

but they shopped at our market instead.

It won't be quiet anymore.

Let's start the meeting.

It's because they had
the opening ceremony in the morning.

People will come to Camellia
in the afternoon.

Go ahead, then.

Aunt Ploy.

Let's talk later, Miang.

What did they send you this time?

It's a message.

They demand three million baht
or they'll post the clip on social media.

Three million?

I knew they would blackmail us.

What do we do, Aunt Ploy?

If they want three million,

that means

they didn't really intend
to expose us in the first place.

That's a bit of a relief.

You know many people
in the police force, don't you?

Could you get someone
to find out who's blackmailing us?

And what do you want me to tell the police

about the clip that they sent us?

I'll tell you.
If the police find out about this,

we will be the ones in trouble.

What are you thinking?
The police can't know about this.

There must be a clip
of us leaving the house.

If they want three million baht,

I'll prepare it tonight.

Waythus.

Give it to them at the meet-up point.

It's three million baht.

You're just going to give it to them?

We have no choice.
They hold the upper hand.

I fear we'll lose more than this.

How about this?

After putting the bag at the location,

I'll follow whoever picks up the money.

We have to get them no matter what.

Don't.

I think it will get worse.

I don't think they only have one clip.

The best way out of this

is to find out

who they are
and to try to negotiate with them.

It's the best possible way to fix this.

Don't worry, Miss Dao.

We'll get through this.

None of us will go to jail.

CAMELLIA COMMUNITY MALL
SWEET FESTIVAL

Hey, these sweets look so good.

This one looks delicious too.

That shop has it too.

Yeah.

Hey, don't you like those?

- I don't.
- Really?

There are more stalls there too.

I really like these.

Hey, that's a brownie!

It's your favorite, right?

Absolutely.

- We'll have two brownies.
- Got it.

- How much is it?
- For two pieces, it'll be 120 baht.

- You'll pay for it? Thanks.
- Yeah.

I just have this 120 baht.

- Here you are.
- Thank you.

Go ahead and taste it.

You go first.

- This one looks delicious too.
- Thank you.

Please have some samples.

Thank you.

What?

Hey! What's the matter?

Hey! Are you okay?

Help! Please help her!

Help! Help!

Hey! Are you okay? Hang in there.

Please help us! Help!

The show has started.

Hang in there.

Please open the door!

- Please get in.
- I'll take you to the hospital.

Careful.

Close the door, please. Let's go.

It looks like she has food poisoning.

Did the customer feel better?

She's going to the hospital.

We can't let her go on her own.
The mall has to compensate her.

Oh, if she posts it on social media,
our reputation will be crushed.

Give me your car key, Miang.
I'll follow them.

I'll leave it to you, Parit. Thank you.

Manager.

- She did buy a brownie from my shop.
- Right.

But my desserts

have no dangerous ingredients.

Really.

Then please let me
take a look at those desserts.

- Yes. My store is this way.
- Right.

I think what Mr. Watthana said
is reasonable.

Having more online marketing channels

would attract customers
who are further away to our market.

People are leaving so many
negative comments for Camellia.

I've shared it with you.

What do you think about
the three agendas we've offered, Ms. Lee?

I'm particularly happy today.
They're all approved.

Just request the budgets.

Would you mind sharing
why you're particularly happy?

Nichamon.

Tell everyone.

Yes, ma'am.

One customer ate a brownie

at Camellia's Sweet Festival

and then had a seizure
with breathing discomfort.

She must be allergic
or have consumed some toxins.

The customer is safe now.

But Camellia

will go through a disaster.

Ms. Lee.

Should we call the press
to follow this case?

Yeah. Show them that we can be nice.

True.

This is not a hospital.

The salesperson said
the new collection is out now.

Really?

We have to get it.

We must.

Here.

The last payment.

Huh.

Why didn't you transfer it?

They want me to be familiar with you two.

If there are any problems,

I'll be able to silence the right people.

Count the money so I can get out of here.

Where should we go next?

Here to pay them for your dirty work?

Who the hell are you?

What?

Right?

So, so much.

May I sit here, ladies?

You've recovered so quickly.
No need to see the doctor anymore?

Excuse me.

Ah, good. Call the staff.

I'd like to see the CCTV footage as well.

I'll compare it with Camellia's footage
to see if it's the same customer

who ate the dessert and had a seizure.

Will you admit it here to me,

or will you give a statement to the police

about the money you've been paid?

Take a seat.

Take it easy.

Excuse me, Ms. Ploysaeng.

I'm Puwin, the manager
at Tharnthong Market.

I remember you now.

That's why you look so familiar.

What can I do for you?

Well,

I'm concerned about the customer

who bought the dessert
from the Sweet Festival here

and had an allergic reaction.

The news is getting out of control now.

I just saw that some reporters
are already here.

You should be happy
instead of being concerned about us

Your Thai Sweets Week
will now have no competitor.

If we won in a fair competition,

I would be happy.

But this incident was staged

by someone from my market.

Why are you telling me this?

I can't stand such dirty strategies.

Then how could you even tolerate
working for your boss?

Ms. Lee basically raised me.

But I'm also a younger brother of Fonkaew,

your close friend.

To be honest,

I'm in a tough situation.

But I'm ready to
give a statement to the press

if it would help save Camellia

from this false accusation.

This is my business card.

If you want me to give the statement,
please feel free to contact me.

Our offices are not that far.

I can be here in no time.

Then, I won't keep you here any longer.

How do I know

that this isn't Panalee's plan?

You didn't even dare
to bow your head to me

because of your boss' order that day.

So,

would you even dare
to give the statement to the press?

I normally

don't bow to Fon.

But you look even younger than her.

And you look particularly good today

so I'm almost too scared
to make eye contact.

But if you want me to…

Go ahead and be on your way.

Here.

It's definitely
the same person, Aunt Ploy.

Did these two admit it?

Yes.

They've been hired but only allowed me
to do a voice recording, not the video.

But shouldn't have
put yourself at risk like that.

What would you do if they were armed?

I've learned self-defense. I've got it.

Yeah, sure, act all tough.

Then, who hired them, Mr. Parit?

They said that they didn't know.

They just know that the first payment

was transferred from someone
named Nuanjan Suktuam.

I've asked Tuk

to use her connections
to investigate the money trail.

The only suitable action
is to sue them, Aunt Ploy.

I agree with Mr. Parit.

I'll ask all the stores in Camellia

to be joint plaintiffs in this lawsuit.

We'll ask for 100,000 baht for each store,

so those behind this
will remember it forever.

I was able to contact
the person named Nuanjan.

She said that someone she knows

hired her to open a bank account
with 30,000 baht cash

and download a mobile banking app
on her phone.

Then, she was asked to send some texts

and transfer the money to the customer
who was pretending to be sick today.

Did she tell you the name
of that person she knows?

Yes, I've noted it down.

It's Nichamon Namkhongman.

Can I see the note, Tuk?

Yes, ma'am.

Hello.

This is Ploysaeng.

Oh, right.

Do you know a woman
named Nichamon Namkhongman?

Is she an employee of Tharnthong Group?

She is.

She’s the mastermind behind everything.

Who is Aunt Ploy talking to?

I want to know too.

Are you really ready
to do the press conference for Camellia?

If that's the case, be prepared.

I'll call you again.

Yes.

Do you know who she is?

She works for Tharnthong Market.

I knew it was them.

We had the dessert events
at the same time.

But they shouldn't have used
such a dirty tactic.

Ms. Lee is the one behind this again?

These terrible things could be done

by no one except her.

Tell the reporters that we'll have
a press conference in half an hour.

Yes, ma'am.

Thank you so much, Parit.

Yes, Aunt Ploy.

Where are you, Dao?

We agreed to let Waythus go alone.

Get out of there right now.

Don't you know how dangerous it is?

It's fine, Aunt Ploy.

It's just a kid.

I want to know who is pulling the strings.

Don't follow that kid.

What if they're waiting for you?

I command you to get out of there.

Okay, Aunt Ploy.

Then let's talk later.

I have a press conference coming up.

Then,

should we use the clip
when you got in Ms. Ploy's car next?

Bring it on.

Next time, we should ask for

around five million, am I right?

Bring it on.

It was very strange, Parit.

Ms. Ploy and Miss Dao
can't talk to each other without fighting.

But they were eating together

and have been calling each other lately.

It has to be what you think it is.

And where is Dao now?

She must be somewhere with Waythus.

Aunt Ploy and Dao changed
when Waythus came into their lives, right?

Yes.

They argued just yesterday

but things
completely changed this morning.

Then this man is the problem.

The conference is about to start.

Let's go together, Parit.

Yeah.

The incident that happened today

was staged to falsely accuse Camellia.

False accusation?

Staged?

It is our third year

having the Sweet Festival at Camellia.

We have only trendy
and viral stores at our events,

that are well-known for
their hygiene, high-quality ingredients,

and guaranteed good taste.

If the desserts contained

any allergen ingredients

that are risky for some consumers,

the store owners

would have put up a warning sign.

Who is that man?

Ms. Panalee's subordinate.

What? Is he here
to give a statement for us?

This is weird.

Does he want to be fired
and come work for us?

That's possible.

The manager position is open too.

Do you know who did it?

And what was the motive?

- Who is it?
- What is going on?

I'll let Mr. Puwin

answer these questions.

Hello.

I'm the general manager
of Tharnthong Group.

I'd like to take responsibility

for what happened to Camellia.

The perpetrator

has a tie to Tharnthong Group's employees.

What?

And what is that tie?

I sincerely apologize.

What is this?

- Is he insane?
- Ms. Lee, please don't!

Please don't do it.

Go drag him

to my house as quickly as possible!

Yes, Ms. Lee.

You ungrateful bastard.

My market's reputation is ruined.

Ms. Lee.

A reporter is calling me.

I won't do any interviews!

Yes.

I owe you.

If you didn't put yourself
on the line today,

Camellia would be in trouble
for a long time.

Not suing us for compensation

and considering it an individual liability

is very generous of you already.

Panalee won't think like that.

Do you know what you've done?

You've completely destroyed
the reputation of my market!

You ungrateful bastard!

Are you feeling better now?

Did you just ask me that

after what you've done to me?

Are you even capable of handling

what will happen with my market? Huh?

I'm not that capable.

But I did it

to minimize the damage
that will be done to us.

Minimize? More like maximize!

Camellia was able to catch
the fake customers

that our people hired.

Those two admitted everything.

They've traced the money trail

back to someone named Nichamon

Namkhongman.

You know her well, don't you?

If I didn't find someone to blame,

we could have suffered more damage.

Why is it so quiet now?

You're fired.

Ms. Lee!

I have to cut every tumor I find.

If you make a mistake,

you have to take the fall for the company.

Prepare to confess everything
at Camellia with me tomorrow.

Is this your idea?

You wanted to get rid of me

so you could be Ms. Lee's right-hand man.

I won't be the only one to fall. Ms. Lee!

When I was spying on
this bastard and Jomkwan for you,

I found that they're back together.

And she's pregnant this time.

Is that true?

BANGKOK… CITY OF LIFE

- I'll have this one.
- Yes, Miss Dao.

- This one too.
- Yes.

- And this one.
- Right.

How much is all that?

Please wait a moment.

We have a special discount just for you.

I'll pay in cash from the account
I just closed. Help me count it.

Yes. Please wait here for a minute.

I have to give it to you,
for the awareness

and the wit that you have, Parit.

Otherwise, we wouldn't be
able to catch those women.

Parit was always our Sherlock Holmes.

If he hadn't graduated
in business management,

he would have opened
a private investigator office now.

I'm not even close to Sherlock Holmes.

Even if I couldn't catch those two,

Mr. Puwin helped you
with the press conference anyway.

No one knows.

He might have been tipped off by those two

that you'd caught them.

So, he had to adjust the game plan

to minimize the damage to their company.

That's possible.

I also thought it was a bit strange

how he offered to help us.

He is close to Panalee.

I don't trust him.

He might have some hidden agenda.

Come in.

The documents are ready.

Here.

Wait for it.

There you go.

CAMELLIA COMMUNITY MALL
APPLICATION LETTER

Huh?

I heard from Miang

that you're looking

to build a career path here in Thailand,

right?

Uh, yes.

Our general manager just resigned.

Oh, Aunt Ploy.
I'm underqualified for this position.

Hey. Stop downplaying yourself.

You have a business administration degree

and years of experience

in international companies.

You'll do just fine.

You can also be an assistant
manager for now. I'll train you.

I'll be honest with you, Parit.

I'd like someone I can trust

or someone close to me to work with me.

Because if there were some

unforeseeable incidents,

I wouldn't have to worry
about the company.

No need to hesitate, Parit.

We'll work together as a team.

The Dream Team of Camellia.

Whoa.

Just try it out.

If you don't like it

or it's not your dream job,
you don't have to continue with us.

Fill it in.

- Alright.
- Yay!

- Cheers.
- Cheers.

Welcome to the Camellia family.

I'll do my best to live up
to your expectations, Aunt Ploy.

- Let's drink.
- Yeah.

I haven't had a drink for a long time.

This kind of atmosphere

reminds me of our lives years ago.

These kids are all grown up now.

Ms. Maratee should have
come back with you. I missed her.

You two were gone
and didn't contact us at all.

Mom said she'll fly here later

but I'm not sure when.

Dao!

Dao! Hey. What's the matter?

- Aunt Ploy.
- Dao. What is it?

Aunt Ploy.

I…

What happened?

I saw…

What happened?

Dao.

I just fell down.

You shocked us with your scream.

Now that Dao's okay,

please continue
with your dinner, everyone.

Yes.

I'll take you to your room.

Let's get back to the dinner.

Dao.

Would you tell me now about what happened?

Aunt Ploy, I saw Mona.

Her soul

must be haunting me.

I think you're under extreme stress

that's making you hallucinate.

But I really saw her.

You have to believe me. I saw her.

Put your mind at ease.

The nightmare has passed. It's over.

Now, we can only make merits.

Do something good
for the mistake we've made.

I know that

it might not erase our sins,

but at least

it can make my mind

become more peaceful.

Our soul will be purer.

But I'm scared, Aunt Ploy.

I'm scared.

Don't be scared.

Don't be scared, Dao.

Oh, you're so quick this time, Miang.

Dao.

Wait, Dao.

Uh…

Miang and I are

going for a walk and some snacks
at the corner of the street

It's our favorite store. Wanna tag along?

No, I'll get fat.

Dao. Hold on.

You don't talk to me
ever since I came back.

You've been direct
and sarcastic towards me.

That's because
I have nothing to talk to you for.

Wait, Dao.

What do I have to do

to make you talk to me again?

You don't have to do anything.

I'm sorry…

for leaving you and not even calling.

It doesn’t matter to me.
Just say it to Miang.

That girl cried hysterically for you.

Are you really not going to forgive me?

Something only
meant the world to us for a while.

When that time has passed,

it no longer has any meaning to us.

I can live without it.

I won't die without it.

- Kwan. Your boyfriend's here.
- Hmm?

Why didn't you come inside, Pu?

Ms. Lee?

Didn't you go get a life by now?

Pu told me that you have a new boyfriend.

Why are you still working
somewhere close to him?

- It's a coincidence--
- I despise the word "coincidence."

So, don't use it as an excuse.

I will give you a big amount of money.

I don't mean to look down on you

but you wouldn't make
this much money in your whole life.

This is an easy offer.

Quit your job here.

I'm here to make an offer,

not to hear you refuse.

You're pregnant, aren't you?

If you still want to see your baby,

then accept this money.

Take it…

so you and our child…

will have a better life.

Fulfill our promise.

Pu.

Pu!

Who's that?

Dao?

Dao. Why are you crying?

Aunt Ploy!

It's Dao, Aunt Ploy.

Aunt Ploy. Open the door for me.

Are you really Dao?

It's me.

Aunt Ploy.

What happened?

I saw Mona.

Where?

I really saw Mona right there.

I did tell you

I really saw Mona.
It wasn't a hallucination.

Aunt Ploy, should we make a merit?

I think we should donate to Mona's family.

If we make their lives better,

Mona might no longer have any worries.

It's a good idea.

Aunt Ploy. Do you think

Mona will keep haunting us
for the rest of our lives?

I'm scared.

We…

We can dedicate our merits to Mona

and take good care of her family.

That way,

she might forgive us.

Who's that?

What do you want?

It's you, Miss Dao?

Well, of course.

Who else could it be?

You don't wear this.

Are you sleepwalking?

Then what are you doing here?

Would you mind your own business for once?

Go do your thing.

How will you handle
the employee behind this, Ms. Panalee?

First of all,
I'd like to make it clear again

that the Tharnthong Group

has no part in this employee's actions.

She did it out of a personal grudge

with the store owner.

And she didn't think
it would cause this much damage.

Yes.

But I didn't let it slide

just because she said she didn't know.

The Tharnthong Group has since let her go.

Will Camellia file a lawsuit for damages?

Camellia is a big corporation

which is investing in

opening more branches in other countries.

We have systems
that are up to global standards.

We have a department
that takes care of our brand image

and is always ready to file lawsuits

to protect our reputation

and build trust for our customers.

Moreover, our new general manager

is someone with a very quick wit

and also a fast decision-maker.

So, we could eliminate this crisis

within a few hours

before it could cause
more damage to the company.

Therefore,

I decided

not to file a lawsuit

because I don't want people to think

that I pick on someone smaller,

or a bigger company is
threatening a smaller company.

Could we have some photos?

- Right.
- Right.

Are you ready?

- This camera, please.
- One, two…

This one, please.

This one too.

One more photo, please.

Beautiful. Thank you.

Please look at each other.

Please.

Did you hear what Ploy said?

She made me so poor and tiny!

I'm truly sorry, Ms. Lee.

It was all because of you.

How did you even
make a mistake on such an easy task?

Huh? How could you?

I'm here to say goodbye.

As I told you before,

I won't leave you.

You'll have the same salary every month.

Thank you, Ms. Lee.

Do my dirty work for me.
And you don't have to go to the office.

This is good.

It'll be easier for me.

Okay.

All done?

Welcome to the Camellia family.

From now on, we're the new-gen gang.

Let's make our Camellia

- become an even a bigger banger.
- Right.

- Assemble.
- Let's go. Assemble.

- Hurry!
- Come on, Parit.

- Yeah!
- Yeah!

You're particularly cheery today, Miang.

Well, I'm happy.

I'm feeling like I'm a kid again.

- What?
- Whoa.

Ms. Ploysaeng.

Are you going somewhere?

Do you need something from me?

Well,

I'd like your advice on something.

You killed me. You killed me.

I'm not your little Dao anymore.

It's time you move on from the past.

If I had known, I wouldn't have come back.

What actually happened, Ms. Ploy?

I killed someone.

How long was the modeling agency
unable to reach Mona?

Are there any other ways to contact her?
What about her parents?

Our company really wants Mona

as the presenter, ma'am.

Her look is exactly
what we're looking for.

It'd be a shame if she missed out.
We have a big budget for this.
