00:00You don't need to do that.
00:15You know, it's no wonder Ronald brings me to these events and not you.
00:21You always do cut such a scene.
00:32My marriage to the rich, handsome CEO, Ronald Scott, has been, for the lack of a better
00:38term, a sham.
00:40Because I discovered a dark secret which I was not supposed to know.
00:45This face in the mirror, it belongs to Mrs. Ronald Scott.
00:49The woman whose husband paraded countless bimbos around town.
00:54The woman who became the laughing stock of the city for taking her husband back every
00:59time he cheated on her.
01:02That's Mrs. Scott?
01:09No wonder he's having an affair with Mr. Scott.
01:13Yeah, you would imagine his wife to be more beautiful.
01:16Why is she a skill?
01:18You're right, she's so plain compared to our Snow White, Miss Emily.
01:24Ah, but don't underestimate her.
01:29She might have had some skills to seduce Mr. Scott, but in the end, she would better do
01:34it, right?
01:35Oh, Mrs. Scott.
01:36Excuse me, do you have this in my size?
01:41Oh, this one, sorry ma'am, this dress has exclusively arrived for a very special client.
01:47Well, surely you must have more of them.
01:51Like she said, there is only one, it's delivered on a special order.
01:55Oh, and they sent an elf for me, too?
01:58You came at the right time, Miss Taylor.
02:01She was undeniably beautiful, Kate thought.
02:04This dress arrived just this morning, here it is.
02:09Somebody even laid their hands on it when I had to tell them off.
02:13Thanks.
02:14Aren't you Miss Carter?
02:15Or are you looking for something to wear to the event tonight?
02:19You know, the one I told Ronnie to bring you to?
02:27You know, it's funny, we keep going for the same things, and yet somehow they always end
02:33up with me.
02:34But of course, I'm talking about the dress.
02:39You know, if you like, we could swap in for something of yours, Miss Carter.
02:45Oh, you're talking about my husband.
02:49How obscure.
02:50You know what, sure, you can have him.
02:53He's rejected goods now anyway.
02:54What are you talking about?
02:57I'm divorcing him.
02:59And with me out of the way, let's see if he'll marry you now.
03:03Emily knew in her heart that Ronald would never marry her.
03:07He was infuriated.
03:08You cheap whore.
03:13Your Ronnie is standing right behind you.
03:17Oh, I'm sorry, it must be somebody who looks like Ronald.
03:27You're despicable, Kate.
03:28Is that all you have?
03:30I hope you are talking as Mrs. Scott the next time you try to confront me.
03:34Otherwise, you're just a homewrecker.
03:37Just then, the two women saw Ronald standing with an earshot.
03:41Kate was nervous for a moment, and then she calmed down.
03:45So what if he had heard?
03:47She had nothing to fear now.
03:50Ronald stared at this woman who was suddenly so determined for a divorce.
03:56Ronnie, she literally just hit me for no reason.
04:01Kate?
04:07So what if I slapped her?
04:08What are you going to do about it?
04:11The old her would beg for his trust.
04:15Years ago, she had begged him to trust her, but he had not.
04:19Repeatedly telling him that she did not push Emily in the river.
04:23She will not do that anymore.
04:26Oh, look, Mrs. Scott's finally learned to be honest.
04:31I am so very proud.
04:33It also looks like Mr. Scott has learned his patience, as he's not jumping to defend Emily
04:38immediately.
04:39I am proud of you two.
04:42Kate wanted to step back, but stood there, defending her very last piece of pride.
04:48She had decided to regain the pride that she had lost two years ago.
04:55You called her a homewrecker.
04:57Now you have to believe I'm yours, and only yours.
05:00It's silly divorce business that can be put out of our minds, all right?
05:05If you accept what I said, then you have to apologize for hitting her.
05:08If not, you can skip the apology.
05:10Ronald was waiting, waiting for her to admit that this was just a game to get his attention.
05:17Kate knew, so she was relaxed.
05:19I am sorry, Ms. Taylor.
05:21I didn't mean to.
05:25Inner beauty.
05:26It's a good thing, Kate.
05:29Don't lose it.
05:31Thank you for the reminder.
05:33Dignity is also a good thing, Ronald.
05:35Don't lose it either.
05:37Emily observed the two anxiously.
05:40She didn't want to stay here any longer.
05:42The current Kate was different from the one who constantly bowed to Ronald in the past.
05:48Brody, let's go.
05:50We're going to be late.
05:52One sec.
05:53Can you send the dress to the house, please?
05:56Look, here's the deal.
05:59If you attend the cocktail party tonight and don't cause me any problems,
06:04I promise you, I'll sign the divorce papers.
06:10Emily?
06:15Kate stared at Ronald walking away with Emily.
06:19It was exactly like two years ago.
06:22On that night when he had left her alone like a fool,
06:26the cocktail party was organized by the commercial tycoon Mr. Gavin Berker
06:32to commemorate the signing of a contract with Scott Enterprises.
06:37After obtaining information about the event on the news and confirming the hotel venue,
06:43she is slightly anxious about having to see Ronald and Emily together again.
06:48She knows she has to do this to get out of this marriage.
06:52However, she had underestimated the degree of Ronald's despicable scheming.
07:08Kate looked at the two people who were embracing each other.
07:12She used the pain caused by her fingertips that were almost piercing through her palm
07:17to remind herself to not feel sad because of this man.
07:21It was not worth it.
07:40Miss, you alright?
07:41Oh, I'm fine, thanks.
07:47Oh, Mr. Collins.
07:50You've arrived.
07:51Mr. Scott and Mr. Berker have been waiting for you.
07:54Mr. Collins? Jake Collins?
07:56Kate had an idea.
07:58Hey, Mr. Collins.
07:59Hi, I'm an employee of Scott Enterprise.
08:02Look, there's a matter for which I really need to contact Mr. Berker's secretary,
08:06but my phone's flat so there's no way for me to contact them.
08:09Can you please let me inside?
08:11Jake gazed at her pleading eyes and his body trembled.
08:15Saving someone is more meritorial than building churches.
08:19Come inside with me.
08:21It would be fine as long as she could safely hide until the end of the event,
08:25which meant that she would have accomplished her end of the bargain between them.
08:38Thank you for remembering me.
08:41We should be thanking you.
08:43If you should ever need any help in the future, just let me know.
08:50Mr. Berker? Mrs. Berker?
08:56Trick's getting better, Kate.
08:58I don't want any problems at this party.
09:00Well, you didn't exactly specify where we can get divorced in this place.
09:04So you demand a divorce on the one hand,
09:07and plan to arrive with Gavin on the other?
09:11If this is some way of trying to get my attention, I don't know what is.
09:14I don't know where Gavin got that video from.
09:17And I don't know why he played it here.
09:20Since you are here,
09:22follow me and why don't we show these wonderful people just how capable you are as my wife.
09:30Since you don't care about getting embarrassed anymore, I don't see why I should be worried.
09:35She knew that Ronald wanted to embarrass her.
09:38She knew that she was never supposed to be a place like this.
09:41She wanted him to see that she was a different woman now.
09:45Not the doormat with no voice he had known all these years.
09:49Did you just walk away from me?
09:52Listen, I have a deal with Ronald that if I can make it through the night without making any trouble,
09:58then he will sign the divorce papers.
10:00And that's what she wanted, wasn't it?
10:02So let's just get through the night without having any trouble.
10:05Okay.
10:08Nice try.
10:16Kate!
10:19You didn't need to do that.
10:24You know, it's no wonder Ronald brings me to these events and not you.
10:30You always do cause such a scene.
10:35Will Kate be able to prove Emily wrong?
