00:00My step-sister called me a f**k, tortured me, mocked me, even tried to beat me to death.
00:07She has no idea that I'll return.
00:10Not as the girl she crushed, but as a fierce diva, and even her fiancé will be begging for my attention.
00:18Hello, beautiful.
00:21What's your name?
00:24Are you waiting for a nurse, man?
00:26Oh no, I have nothing to do with this horrible individual.
00:31I don't even want to see her.
00:33Then you're probably blind, sir.
00:35Blind? Why?
00:37Anthony didn't realize I was the same Nora he cheated on with my step-sister Angela nine years ago, and that too on our engagement day.
00:46How could I forget the day I was humiliated, called fat and ugly, and nearly beaten to death?
00:52What's worse?
00:54Getting dumped by the country's most eligible bachelor, or still being a set f**k?
01:02My nightmare began the day my mother died, and my shameless father married his mistress before her burial.
01:08He brought his new wife and her cruel daughter into my life, and together they tormented me.
01:13I have a message for my mother.
01:16What message?
01:18I'm going to make your life a living hell.
01:21My stepmother forced me to take unknown pills that wrecked my body, making me fat and dull.
01:27My own father hated me as my face reminded him of my mother.
01:32When I finally found some love in Anthony, he too cheated on me with my step-sister.
01:37But what truly shattered me was my mysterious pregnancy.
01:41I was a virgin, yet I became pregnant with twins.
01:45Was it a miracle or a cruel scheme by someone who wanted to destroy me?
01:49My father demanded I abort the baby, but I couldn't.
01:52I ran, gave birth, and while I was unconscious, he stole my baby boy, leaving me with only my daughter.
01:59I searched for my son, never knowing my father was behind it.
02:03To escape my evil family's torture, I fled the city with my daughter.
02:08I raised her all alone and worked hard to become a renowned surgeon.
02:12The girl they nearly killed rose like a phoenix.
02:15The timid, bullied Nora has transformed into Dr. Athena, a powerful woman who fears no one.
02:22Mom, you're so beautiful!
02:24Thanks, baby. Like you.
02:27Mom, are we flying to the States to find my daddy?
02:31I told you that you don't have a daddy.
02:34But everyone has a father, and I should have one.
02:37This conversation is over. Come on.
02:41Well, if not daddy, we should find my brother at least.
02:48Yes, honey, we will.
02:51Nine years have passed, but I still don't have an answer for my baby girl, whenever she asks me about her father and brother.
02:58But now I am back to face those who erased my existence, to take revenge on those who ruined my childhood and killed my mother.
03:05Most importantly, I am going to find my stolen son.
03:10Athena, you have to be more careful.
03:13What's the matter?
03:15Justin Han is running a global search to find out who are you.
03:20Do you know how famous he and his family are? You won't be able to run away anymore.
03:24I'm sick of it.
03:27I just want to find my son, and that's all.
03:30I just want to find my son, and that's all.
03:33And everything will be as I decide.
03:38Nothing can stop me from finding my son.
03:40No threat, no warning.
03:42But now it's time to meet the real devils of my story.
03:45My own family.
03:52Hello, dad.
03:54Why aren't you picking up the phone? Where are you?
03:57Why do you have to rouse the whole family and then disappear again?
04:02I won't be alone.
04:04Won't be alone? You're the one that made all that fuss about breaking off the engagement.
04:09Come here and stop wasting our time.
04:27I'm sorry, baby. Let me help you.
04:30I'm not a baby.
04:32I'm an adult too, but even I need help sometimes.
04:37Do you like reading?
04:38Yes.
04:39Me too.
04:43This is cool.
04:44Okay.
04:45Sorry. I didn't see you.
04:48This is okay.
04:49I'm sorry.
04:50I'm sorry.
04:51I'm sorry.
04:52I'm sorry.
04:53I'm sorry.
04:54I'm sorry.
04:55I didn't see you.
04:56This is okay.
04:57My dad and I are running late, which is why I left my backpack open.
05:02So, young man, I need to go.
05:05That's why bye and see you later.
05:07Bye.
05:08Bye.
05:11This child, his eyes seemed so familiar to me.
05:15But I couldn't remember where I'd seen them.
05:22Hey, dear.
05:26Are you ready?
05:27Yes, dad.
05:28Let's go.
05:36Guys, look at her.
05:44Tell ugly joke of yours again.
05:48I'm telling you, Nora is not ugly.
05:56No, she's not.
06:04Well.
06:07If you really think your cousin is beautiful,
06:13I suggest you prove it.
06:18If you can't prove it,
06:21I will eat this picture.
06:25But if you can't, you eat it.
06:29You must be joking.
06:33I see.
06:36You wanted to seem nobler than you are.
06:40You're just a coward.
06:45You're as ugly as Nora.
06:48Come on, be a good girl.
06:50Eat it.

07:32Do you like it?
07:35Let's wish Angela Smith a happy birthday.
07:40I'm gonna ruin you.
07:42Who the hell are you?
07:44Hey girls.
07:47What's going on here?
07:49Me?
07:51I'm Nora.
07:52Nora Smith.
07:58It can't be!
08:01It can. You bet it can.
08:08Oh, Nora!
08:13I can't believe it!
08:15Nora!
08:17Nora is back!
08:20I'm so happy to see you!
08:22There is no need to put on a show, Angela.
08:25A bat is a bat.
08:28So, are you going to eat my picture?
08:32Shut up, both of you!
08:34Nora, what do you think you're doing?
08:36I waited all these years for you to do this.
08:41Okay, guys. Let's not make a big scene here.
08:45Henry, let's go to your office and you can talk with your daughter there, okay?
08:50Okay.
08:52Girls, enjoy!
08:56Enjoy!
09:02So, Nora, do you remember why you came here?
09:05You came here to break off your engagement with Anthony.
09:09Yes, you're right, Dad.
09:11And I don't care about any of your businesses.
09:15I'm gonna do it no matter what.
09:19All right.
09:21Whatever you say.
09:26What?
09:28Just like that?
09:30Yeah. We've all been waiting a long time for that.
09:33Since Anthony found himself another girl.
09:40He probably did it again for the money.
09:43What a clever boy. I'm so happy for him.
09:46Actually, he loves me.
09:49What?
09:50Anthony and love?
09:53Are you kidding me?
09:56It's absurd.
10:05I didn't expect it, sis.
10:08Thank you for bringing such good news for my birthday.
10:13But I would have liked a better present from you.
10:20You almost got what you wanted.
10:23What more do you want?
10:27Here.
10:29What is it?
10:31Sign it.
10:33This is a donation of your stock to the company.
10:39It's the memory of my mother.
10:41Of your wife, Dad.
10:45Ex-wife.
10:48Sorry.
10:50And I couldn't give it to you even if I wanted to.
10:54They belong to me by inheritance.
10:57Before you couldn't. Now you can.
11:01The inheritance papers expired just two years ago.
11:04So it's simple. You wanna break it off? Just sign the papers.
11:07Come on, Nora.
11:09I believe in you.
11:17I'm not gonna do it no matter what.
11:25Are you gonna stop her?
11:26You need it. You bring her back.
11:29Get back right now!
11:32Leave me alone!
11:34Just tell me the truth.
11:36Are you gonna try to get Anthony back?
11:38Yeah?
11:39Is this the real reason why you're here?
11:42Get out of my way.
11:44Don't lie to me.
11:46I can see right through you.
11:49You're so shameless.
11:51Don't even think that Anthony will take you.
11:54You're so shameless.
11:56Don't even think that Anthony will take you back just because you got a little prettier.
12:03He would never marry someone like you.
12:07You ruined yourself with that baby.
12:12Where's your little freak now, huh?
12:15Or have you finally given up on her like your father gave up on you?
12:22If you...
12:24If I hear you say one more thing about my daughter one more time,
12:30that slap will feel like a gentle stroke.
12:36Happy, happy birthday, Angela.
12:39May all your wishes come true.
12:44Cheers!
12:45Cheers!
12:46Cheers!
12:49This has all been so unbearable.
12:52Angela's words stuck into my head.
12:54It's like I'm back to who I was.
12:57But I really don't know how I got pregnant nine years ago.
13:04All that reminds us to find out the truth.
13:09Please step aside.
13:11What's going on?
13:16Oh my God, it's Justin Hunt.
13:18And that little boy turns out to be his... his son.
13:25Hey, where is Mr. Hunt going?
13:28Apparently his son wants to go out to have some candy.
13:31So we all have to wait.
13:34Now it's clear what all the fuss is about.
13:37Hunt's family was afraid that the media would try to take pictures of their youngest child
13:42and it might cause trouble for them.
13:45But there could be trouble for me too.
13:48What if he finds out I'm Athena?
13:56Nesmith?
13:58Um, yes?
14:01Stay away from my son.
14:08Besides, you're not my type.
14:14Okay.
14:20That's it. You can go about your business.
14:29Oh, that was humiliating.
14:31I've heard that many have tried to get close to Mr. Hunt through his son,
14:35but he hates it more than anything.
14:38Those women who tried to get close to the youngest son ended up with some old men.
14:44I don't know what this woman did, but she really screwed up.
14:55Mr. Hunt, can we go? Is everything all right?
15:01That woman.
15:04I saw the surveillance footage of her talking to my son and...
15:10it looks like...
15:12a typical friend.
15:14Would you like me to go back and have a proper chat with her?
15:18No, no, no, no.
15:20That's the thing.
15:27Pete always avoids strange women and he's extremely shy.
15:33But not this time.
15:37It's kind of... weird.
15:41So what do we do, sir?
15:43Nothing.
15:45Yet.
15:47We'll see. Let's go.
16:07Happy birthday, darling.
16:09What took you so long?
16:14I had some business to take care of.
16:21Nora was here.
16:32Did Nora hit you?
16:35Damn.
16:37Does she refuse to call off our engagement?
16:40God.
16:41God.
16:46Where is she? I'll deal with her.
16:49No, no, no, Anthony.
16:51You don't have to go in person.
16:54Chill out.
16:56It's not about you. You don't have to go in person.
17:02She doesn't want to lose the company.
17:08I'll make her come eventually.
17:12But we need to get this company.
17:15Or no one will ever agree to our engagement, okay?
17:19Take care of it yourself.
17:23I don't want to see her horrible face either.
17:26I bet she got even uglier, didn't she?
17:31You don't have to worry about seeing her face again.
17:36I'll sort it out, I promise.
17:42Great.
17:56Did you find that woman I asked for?
17:59I'm sorry, sir, but we are working on it.
18:02Are you sure it's worth the effort?
18:04You've got to be kidding me, huh?
18:06Listen to me, dwarf.
18:08And listen to me very carefully.
18:09She's all I think about this whole time.
18:12That means it would be great if I could marry her instead of Angela.
18:17Is that clear?
18:19Okay.
18:21So get me her name right now!
18:23Mr. Ray, I couldn't find out the identity of your mystery woman.
18:28But I found the hotel where she stayed.
18:32So what are you waiting for, you son of a bitch?
18:34Tell me her address right now.
18:36Asshole.
18:37Asshole.
18:43Mom, did you find my brother?
18:47Not yet, baby.
18:49Not yet.
18:51Nice book. Have fun.
18:53Have fun.
19:04Solo, give me everything you can find on Idealine Pharmaceuticals and Fest.
19:09Hey, watch your tongue, asshole.
19:12You can't boss me around just because you'll save my life.
19:15I'm the number one hacker in the world.
19:18I deserve respect.
19:20Solo, please. And be quick about it.
19:23I don't run your errands for nothing.
19:25Name the fair price and we'll be even.
19:28Hold it.
19:32How much is your life worth?
19:35Your life that I saved.
19:37Okay.
19:39Get on your computer.
19:42It's better.
19:44Right now your email is going to have information on Idealine Pharmaceuticals.
19:49It's a company that Nora Smith's mother left behind when she died.
19:53Nora was just a child then, so the company was handled by a special manager.
19:58And in all that time she didn't take much interest in the company.
20:04There's something fishy going on here since everyone is chasing this company.
20:10Of course it's fishy.
20:19And it's not just the company that's been hunted.
20:23What? What are you talking about?
20:28I got a message from Mr. Hunt and it's very impressive.
20:34He just offered me a few million dollars for telling him whether you're a man or a woman.
20:43I think you're in trouble.
20:47Damn it.
20:49What are you going to do?
20:52I want you to send him a message for me.
20:56Okay?
20:58Okay, babe.
21:08Mr. Hunt, may I come in?
21:11Yeah, Lawrence.
21:13Hello.
21:20Mr. Hunt, you have a message from Solo.
21:25Oh, nice.
21:29There is a message from Dr. Athena.
21:33What is it? Read it.
21:38I'm reading it verbatim.
21:42Dr. Athena asks, Mr. Hunt...
21:49Lawrence, read it.
21:53Are you in a rush to find me because you need urgent brain surgery?
22:05Is there a picture of the doctor in there?
22:08Yes.
22:09Show me.
22:11Show me that picture.
22:14I want to see it because they paid a lot of money for it.
22:18Yes, sir. Please.
22:29Is that my mother?
