Short filmTranscript
00:00I caught my boyfriend cheating on me with my best friend and in a state of drunken anger.
00:04But what I thought as a one-night stand became the biggest mistake of my life.
00:10Her surroundings revealed a dimly lit opulent room.
00:14Panic set in when she discovered her nudity
00:20and searched the room frantically for her clothing.
00:23At her feet, she noticed a pair of men's briefs
00:26and her heart sank when she spotted red stains on the sheets.
00:30It was the final damning evidence of a night she couldn't fully recall.
00:38This was not a dream.
00:40This had happened.
00:41She lost her...
00:49You're awake.
00:51Mr. Erickson.
00:52After everything we did last night, you still think we aren't on a first-name basis?
01:05You should take a shower.
01:08The water pressure is excellent.
01:13Uh, no thanks.
01:15I need to leave.
01:16Emma, don't you want to talk about what happened last night?
01:25Emma wrestled with the fractured fragments of her memory,
01:28attempting to reconstruct the blurry aftermath of her reckless drinking.
01:34In the moment of haste, she slid beneath the cool sheets.
01:37Her hands clawed at the scattered remnants of her attire strewn across,
01:42each article of clothing a potential witness to the night's debauchery.
01:56Mr. Erickson, can we forget that anything happened between us last night?
02:01If you're worried about any STDs, I can assure you I'm...
02:06Was.
02:08Was.
02:09The only person that's lost anything here is me.
02:18I want to ask if you want anything from me.
02:22You don't strike me as the kind of person that wants money for a...
02:27Yeah, I don't want your money.
02:30I just want you to keep this a secret.
02:32I did not know it was your first time in bed with someone.
02:37As compensation, I will allow you one demand.
02:43You can ask anything of me.
02:49Except make you fall in love with me.
02:54Mr. Erickson, I think you misunderstood.
02:57I don't go out to give myself away, so I won't trade myself for anything.
03:01In fact, I plan now to officially quit working,
03:04because from here on, I'm going to be focusing on my graduation thesis.
03:09We won't be seeing each other again, so I'm going to wish you a good life.
03:13Goodbye.
03:16Robert's mouth twitched with surprise and amusement.
03:20Emma Green's unexpected departure and assertive demeanor had caught his attention.
03:26Emma had made a memorable impression as the first woman to ever walk out on him.
03:31He picked up the scarf she had left behind by mistake and began to inhale its scent.
03:41Emma Green's enigmatic words had presented him with an intriguing challenge,
03:46and he eagerly contemplated what the future might hold.
03:56In a northern city, Robert Erickson, CEO of the Erickson Emblem Corporation,
04:08represented power, wealth, and danger.
04:13Rumor had it that he had killed his older brother and left his younger brother traumatized
04:18to become the sole inheritor of the family business.
04:22If there was a person in this world that Emma didn't even dare to think about, it was him.
04:28Yet, this was the person whom she had foolishly spent the night with.
04:33Adding to the complexity of the situation,
04:36the Erickson Emblem Corporation wasn't just an ordinary company.
04:40It stood as the primary rival to the Mayer Group of Industries that was owned by Emma's father.
04:47Their rivalry extended beyond mere financial competition,
04:51spilling over into a power struggle for control over the city.
04:56Both groups were unscrupulous in their methods, causing collateral damage on both sides.
05:02Yes, indeed, she had slain her father's most bitter adversary.
05:08She quickens her pace, eager to distance herself from Robert's home.
05:13If anyone from the Mayer family ever discovered this, the shame would be unbearable.
05:25Emma stood, facing the devastating betrayal that had rocked her world.
05:31If she hadn't walked in on them cheating on her yesterday,
05:34her drunken night of debauchery could have been avoided.
05:43Emma looked
06:13at them both, but didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
06:17Emma thought that this only happened in vulgar novels.
06:21One of them was her boyfriend. The other was her best friend and roommate.
06:26Ted, you don't have to worry about me.
06:28Kristen, he's all yours.
06:30And as far as you and I go, this friendship is done.
06:32Goodbye.
06:34Emma! Emma!
06:38Emma, don't!
06:44A black Cadillac turns into the road, heading towards Emma.
06:54Move, move, move!
06:56Emma, don't! Emma, move!
07:02It turned out to be Robert. However, by that point, it was already too late.
07:07Once again, she had acted impulsively, only to regret it afterward.
07:12Without hesitation, she followed through with her rash decision,
07:16leaving Ted and Kristen standing there.
07:20Remorse filled her, and now she had lost Ted, her best friend, and her f***.
07:27With a heavy heart, she knew that yesterday was indeed the worst day of her life.
07:34He maintained silence, exuding an air of mystery, a trait she found appealing,
07:39especially following her heartbreak with Ted.
07:43She discreetly stole a glance at him, struck by the captivating depth of his eyes.
07:51He was interesting, but she also knew this came with danger.
07:56She stared out the window, trying to gain her courage.
07:59Then it all came spooing out at once.
08:03And what's up with you?
08:05Didn't I tell you I never want to see you again?
08:07Are you surprised to see me?
08:10Well, yes. What are you doing here?
08:14Miss Green, you were the one sitting in my car.
08:19Yes. Sorry. That was my boyfriend, ex-boyfriend, and my best friend.
08:28Well, I thought she was my best friend, who are apparently now a thing.
08:35Anyways, I'm sorry. I just had to get out of that situation.
08:41So you thought, let's take up hitchhiking and jump in a new one.
08:48Sorry?
08:50Emma looked at Robert with a perplexed expression,
08:53unsure of what he meant by his cryptic remark.
08:56She followed his gaze down to her muddy shoes.
09:00I promise, Robert, I'll clean your car.
09:03I'm sorry for making a mess.
09:05I'll appreciate that.
09:17You should be more careful. Someone dangerous might pick you up.
09:22Although his words made sense,
09:24Emma felt like there was something more to how he meant them.
09:28Something felt wrong with what he said.
09:31Okay. Take care.
09:38Even after Emma left the car,
09:40he couldn't shake the seductive memories of their passionate night.
10:00Hi. Okay. During my examination...
10:10Okay then. I'll leave it to you.
10:13You can pick up your prescription from the pharmacy.
10:15And if there's any further pain or discomfort, you can call us back anytime.
10:21Easy for him to say. He's a man.
10:24If he had lost his *** to a random girl one drunken night,
10:28he would be celebrated.
10:30And why did he bring up toys?
10:34What's the use of having a nice car, nice clothes, lots of money?
10:39What's the use of being handsome if he's a pervert?
10:42However, it's important to consider
10:45that these ideas could be mere speculations on her part.
10:49How was the doctor's visit?
10:53Are you following me?
10:55Look, I don't know what kind of weird stuff you're into, but I told you already.
10:58I wanted to remind you that apart from just a doctor's appointment,
11:03you have one more.
11:04What appointment?
11:05To wash my car, Miss Green.
11:08Um, I'm actually really busy right now.
11:10I have midterm coming up this afternoon.
11:12I'm sorry, but I have to go.
11:14Okay.
11:14I'll see you later.
11:15Bye.
11:16Bye.
11:16Bye.
11:17Bye.
11:18Bye.
11:18I have midterm coming up and I'm heading to the library.
11:20After this, I will come and do the needful.
11:38Mr. Erickson, what are you doing here?
11:41Get in the car, Emma.
11:42She wasn't sure what made her get in.
11:45There was something about him that made you feel you needed to do what he said.
11:49When she saw the corner of his lips curl up, there was a hint of evil in his smile.
12:04Uh, what are we doing here, Mr. Erickson?
12:08I figured my cat isn't within your caliber, so I barred it the job.
12:15What exactly do you want from me?
12:19Just have a meal with me.
12:21Isn't that better than cleaning my car?
12:36Today's task is to laugh and eat.
12:39Don't talk nonsense.
12:42Emma found out that they would not be eating alone.
12:45They had company, a woman.
12:48Hello, Robert.
12:50And, uh, you are?
12:53This is Samuel's tutor.
12:55Her name is Miss Green.
12:59Hello, I'm Jennifer Walt.
13:02Well, I used to be Samuel's tutor.
13:04I resigned to focus on my thesis.
13:07Uh, hi, Miss Walt.
13:10I was afraid I was disturbing you and your other commitments.
13:14You're a nut.
13:15But I had to bring Miss Green here because I made an appointment with her first.
13:21You don't mind, do you?
13:22Of course not.
13:23The more the merrier.
13:26I just hope Miss Green doesn't mind that I already ordered food according to what you like.
13:30It's just that I don't know what Miss Green likes.
13:33I'll just ask someone to come with the menu.
13:37No need, Miss Walt.
13:38I'm not picky.
13:40She isn't picky about food.
13:43What I like, she likes to eat.
13:47That's good.
13:48Miss Green will have more to eat later.
13:55Emma was embarrassed.
13:58During the meal, Robert would occasionally offer her portions of his food.
14:02He was being very gentle, almost like a boyfriend.
14:07Jennifer didn't say much.
14:09However, she would occasionally glance at Emma.
14:12But Emma could not recognize any of the emotions in her eyes.
14:16Was Robert asking Emma to be in some part of a threesome?
14:19The way they spoke to each other was odd.
14:21Part business, part lover.
14:24But Emma couldn't quite put her finger on it.
14:30Do you mind if I have a chat with Rob for a moment?
14:34No worries.
14:39I know you, Robert.
14:41You're doing this to make me jealous.
14:43I think you should go back.
14:45There'll be a meeting in the afternoon.
14:46I still need to drop Emma off at school.
15:08What are you laughing at?
15:15You like Miss Waltz.
15:18Wait, you brought me here to provoke her on purpose, didn't you?
15:22You didn't really have to do that.
15:23She obviously has some strong feelings for you as well.
15:27You don't know what you're talking about.
15:29I suggest you refrain from speaking to me out of your place in the future.
15:33Emma watched him with confusion.
15:35In the future, they would never see each other again.
15:39And what was her place with Robert?
15:41If Ted was any kind of an example, she did not want to repeat the same mistake.
15:46Of course, with Robert, she might be overthinking.
15:50Knowing that he had someone he cared for, she actually felt much more relaxed.
15:57Get in the car.
15:58I'll take you back to school.
16:00No, thanks.
16:00I'll take the bus.
16:36Oh,
16:49hello.
17:05You
17:35We
17:44Really have to stop meeting like this is starting to creep me out
17:47Get in the car M
17:49Now he was calling her M. No one had ever called her that Emma was short enough, but she liked the way he said it
17:58Give me my bag, please
18:00It'll take you at least an hour and a half to jog from here to your school
18:05Are you sure you can still make it in time for class?
18:19Someone called you just now
18:24You answered my phone
18:26What if it was something urgent?
18:29What did he say he just asked who I was and where you were
18:34So, how did you answer is it important?
18:38This is my phone
18:39You answered it without my permission. I have every right to know the subject of conversation. I
18:45Said I'm your extortion target
18:48Your bag was in my car
18:51so
18:53You're a boyfriend, right?
18:55ex-boyfriend
18:57Did you guys fight that has nothing to do with you? Mr. Erickson?
19:04I
19:12Without saying another word she turned around and walked towards the school
19:21But not long after she walked nearby someone shouted Emma
19:27As
19:31Robert observed the car parked across from him his face turned pale with surprise
19:36Was that Jack Mayer the eldest son of the Mayer family? It seemed that he had greatly
19:44Underestimated Emma green. You said you'd be gone for two months. Yeah, dad broke his leg a few days ago
19:49So I came back early. Do you want me to take you to go see him?
19:52You
19:54Still can't forgive him. How can I besides I know my place
19:59Emma don't be like that. I've never treated you like an outsider. I know so
20:06That's a Erickson. Yeah in that car Roberts. Mm-hmm. And how do you know him?
20:13I'm his brother's tutor
20:15So you're still working. What about that card? I gave you
20:19Emma that's not the mayor's family's money. That's me giving a gift to my sister
20:24Yeah, but you still have the mayor's surname
20:28Emma stop being so stubborn. I feel bad for you. Don't I really like my life right now
20:34Well, at least promise me you'll stay away from Robert Erickson. He's very dangerous. I know I'm not stupid
20:42Brother I'm running late. I really have to go
20:44Brother I'm running late. I really have to go
20:47All right, let me take you out for dinner tonight. I'll pick you up. Send me the address. I'll see you later. Okay
20:54Robert Erickson was not someone who would just drop Emma off at school to be a good guy
20:59What was his agenda? Could it be possible that he had stumbled upon some crucial information a
21:07Revelation that could potentially unravel secrets and hidden truths as the wheels of speculation
21:13Spun in Jack's mind. He couldn't help but wonder if Roberts actions held a deeper purpose
21:25Emma rings the doorbell and a member of the house staff lets her in
21:33She
21:35Walked through the front part of the house
21:38Viewing it in a new light this time. She was paying attention to the design choices made in the space
21:50Why are you here this is my house
21:57I've been waiting for you
22:02I
22:07Told you I was handing in my resignation
22:10well, then I
22:12Should ask you
22:14Why are you here?
22:16Wouldn't a call or email suffice. Oh
22:20I
22:21Wanted to tell Samuel in person. I felt it was only right
22:25right
22:26From now on I think you should stay here and focus more on helping Samuel with his studies
22:33Wait
22:34You mean live here?
22:36That's right
22:38Samuel has a month before the college entrance exam
22:42He needs all the help he can get plus
22:45It'll be more convenient for you to stay here
22:49No, I'm a student. I have to stay at the dormitory
22:53Besides this place is too far from campus. It's inconvenient to be going back and forth
22:59Oh, I can help you with the accommodation to your school
23:03No jogging back and forth and whatnot. I can send you a car
23:10Win-win
23:12That's not necessary
23:13What I mean is it's inappropriate for us to live together and to live with someone I teach
23:19I did not realize that your thoughts were so
23:24vulgar
23:26Could it be that you like Samuel?
23:28Samuel is just my students
23:30Then do you like me?
23:33Of course not since you don't like either of us
23:37What's there to be afraid of?
23:39Miss green. I think I still need to remind you that you were the one who took the initiative that night
23:48You're a man, I don't believe you didn't have the power to reject me
23:53You don't seem to know very much about men
23:57Most men would never reject a woman who voluntarily throws herself into their arms
24:03unless that man's sexual function is
24:06lacking
24:07speaking of
24:08Which I'm a little curious
24:12Yesterday I saw you talking to Ted Smith today. You were hugging Jack Mayer
24:20Miss green. It seems that I have totally underestimated your ability with the opposite sex
24:29You and I are not close I
24:31Don't feel any obligation to share my secrets. I do not need you interfering in my personal matters
24:38Also, you promised to keep what happened between you and I private
24:43This was the first time Robert had met a woman who was not afraid of him
24:49She was like a little wild cat that was ready to attack at any time
24:56Of course, I've never told anyone about the matter of you sleeping with me
25:02Then why pry into my love life?
25:05I'm just trying to win the argument based on what you said
25:10You're not the only non family member living in my house. It's not appropriate to think of this arrangement as
25:17Inappropriate why you live here
25:20You're like the other people I've hired
25:23I'll provide the food and the shelter you'll be responsible for teaching Samuel here. That's all
25:34You
25:41Miss greens living arrangements have been negotiated. You can begin your lessons
25:54Emma was speechless. Who did he negotiate with it was him who made the decision?
26:00However, if she really thought about it, this could also be a good idea
26:06She had planned on moving out of the dormitory anyway, it would get her away from Kristen for good
26:15She could use the next month to find a new house to live in
26:21After she finished her tutoring session with Samuel she rushed to the restaurant
26:26Perfect timing dinner has just been served. Thank you
26:37He slowly it's not like anybody's gonna snatch her from you
26:42You can't win against me I'll eat it all everything. Okay, I'll eat it all
26:47Okay, okay, please just eat
27:17Oh
27:23Elsa what brings you here?
27:30Why are you like this
27:32You came from overseas and you didn't even come to visit your actual sister
27:37Instead you're here having dinner with her
27:40the illegitimate daughter
27:42Shut up
27:44She was the illegitimate daughter to begin with just grace to her mother
27:49How could you be so nice to her
27:52Elsa you need to be more respectful. Okay
27:55jack
27:57At the end. I am your real sister. Miss mario, please
28:00Speak to me with respect
28:02First of all, I don't have a father secondly. I have never used a single cent of the mayor family's money
28:09Even when my mother was ill and hospitalized
28:12Even when we needed money to save her life not even then did I ask for help
28:17No one in the mayor family has the right to criticize me your existence is a disgrace
28:24I'm proud to be my mother's daughter whether you like it or not
28:35Emma emma emma, please. Elsa. She's
28:38Don't speak anymore save some dignity for me. I'll leave first call me if you need anything
28:52Are you satisfied
29:07Oh mom, I miss you so much
29:38So
29:40Where are you heading
29:42If you're busy, you can just drop me at the dorms. I'll be fine by myself
29:47I had planned to go home
29:49Tom looked in the mirror and knew what his master wanted
30:08So
30:11Mr. Erickson miss green's room has been arranged. It is on the first floor of samuel's residence
30:20Samuel is studying for his college entrance exam
30:25Wouldn't it distract him to have miss green staying there? Oh, yes
30:31Arrange it with me
30:33We can put her up for the month
30:36Yes, sir
30:45Another one buys the dust
31:06So
