The deadliest assassin is reborn inside a weak, humiliated young girl — and no one will be spared.

Hi. I'm Scarlet Shadow, the one who strikes fear into the world, the top assassin belonging to the most powerful assassin organization, the Shadow. But my power made the organization wary. They wanted to extract my DNA and clone countless copies of me. >> The higher-ups said, "Once the DNA extraction is successful, Scarlet Shadow cannot be left alive. Take all the data And evacuate. Prepare to detonate." >> So, you're going to silence me? >> Scarlet Shadow. We've already implanted a microchip in your brain. Once detonated, you'll be blown to bits in 30 seconds at most. You'd better

not make a move. >> 30 seconds is more than enough to kill all of you. >> Fire. Fire. >> [music] [music] >> Surprise. >> [music] [music] [music] >> I told you, 30 seconds is enough. All of you go to hell together. >> No! This freak never learns. She actually dares to use the school bathroom. I'm not dead. I've been reborn, reborn as a Plain-looking >> [music] >> high school student who gets bullied by her classmates. Go get a bucket of water. Here's the water. I'm not the original owner who lets people bully her. >> [music]

>> What [music] are you doing? If there's a next time, you won't be so lucky. Getting into a Big fight with these people is just an insult to me. >> [music] >> Chloe, this name actually suits me quite well. Her features are delicate and the bone structure isn't bad. As for these pimples, they're no trouble for me at all. >> Is this really the same timid Chloe from before? >> Stop talking. That look she just gave Me. >> My legs went weak. >> Ugh, I don't want to eat meat. We have this meat every day.

How come it's this again? Braised pork is so fatty. >> This is my family. A weak father, a biased mother, and siblings who look down on me and keep their distance. >> Chloe, come eat. Senior year is stressful. I'll buy a Chicken tomorrow to make soup and nourish you. >> With her loser grades, what stress could she possibly have? >> Liam, Chloe is still your sister. How can you say such a thing? >> Why are you yelling at him? What did Liam say that was wrong? I really don't know what goes on in that idiot

head of yours all day. Scores of five or 10 points. You think you can manage that? You've completely humiliated me. And you're even copying others by dating. How shameless. And you, how did I get so unlucky to end up with a man like you? Look at your brothers, all driving nice cars and living in new houses, while you're still stuck in this old place. If you had just been a little more capable, our daughter Zoe's leg wouldn't be crippled. It's been so many years, even money can't fix it now. >> An isolated island suffered a

major explosion at 7:10 this morning. >> You really have no shame, do you? Mom and Dad are fighting because of you, and all you care about is watching TV. You, what's with that look? Did I say something wrong? What's wrong with her? She used to just keep her head down and shrink away. How dare she glare at me like that? >> How dare you glare at your brother like that? You've got some nerve. Anything else? >> [music] [music] >> Anything else? >> [music] >> These are just common weeds. Sadly, few people know. If handled properly,

they're the ultimate remedy for acne and perfect for skin care. You didn't eat much tonight. You must be starving. Here you go. >> [music] >> I've always been a loner. No one's ever been this kind to me. >> [music] [music] >> Before, when she came back from school, she'd just hide in her room. She never came out except to do chores. Today's really weird. No way. >> The surface equation is Z equals X Squared plus Y squared. >> What? The answer. This is the final problem from the national math competition. Only 10 students nationwide solved

it. She actually solved it mentally. How could you? >> This dumb problem is a no-brainer. >> But you used to get five or 10 points for multiple choice. You just scribble A B C D. You just write the word solution. >> [music] >> Writing solution was just to humor them. These dumb problems are just a waste of time and ink. >> You were faking it. >> [music] >> Then then try solving this one. This was last year's problem set by Principal Harris and several professors. They personally promised that anyone who could solve it would get

early admission To Crown University, but no one's cracked it yet. >> This problem's kind of interesting. >> [music] >> For that last problem, she must have seen it on my scratch pad and looked up the answer online. Surprising she could remember it given her IQ. Don't push yourself. >> [music] >> You've already solved it. >> [music] >> You solved it already. >> At least this cheap sister is tolerable. >> My idiot sister for over 10 years. And she deliberately hid her genius-level IQ. >> Don't always react like that. It's really hard to handle. >> [music]

>> So many so-called top-tier beauty formulas aren't as effective as the weeds I mix myself. >> [music] >> The original owner's face was covered in acne. In no time, I'll make it disappear completely. The foundation is actually good. She's a genuine beauty. >> [sighs] >> Chloe, what time is it? Why aren't you up making breakfast? >> Last night, I heard her banging around in her room. I don't know what she was doing. She's probably trying to learn how to dress up. >> With that face, any effort is wasted. Covered in acne, like a toad. And

those ugly glasses can't even hide it. >> Exactly. Even the star student Julian Sterling would avoid her. And she's trying to date like others. It's hilarious. >> Don't talk about Chloe like that. Mind your own business. Go to school. >> But Chloe, she's actually nice. >> Nice? You think she's nice? Are you blind or stupid? That freak, Chloe, what are you hiding in there for? Makeup? Don't think turning into a goddess will make Julian like you. Stop dreaming. No one would want you even if you paid them. See? She's too ashamed to come out. Embarrassing.

>> [music] >> Is this still that ugly girl? >> Chloe, how come all your acne is gone? >> I picked some herbs in the yard last night and applied them. They cleared up overnight. >> Huh? Herbs? >> Which hand did you use to push her just now? You, you. If there's a next time, I'll make sure you can never hold anything again. >> Mom, her eyes are so scary. >> This brat, she seems like a different person today. You look really good. Like this. >> This sister is actually quite cute. What's for breakfast? I don't

have any money on me. >> Oh. Mom gave us $1 this morning. Let's buy some steamed buns later. Or you can have something else if you want. >> Looks like the breakfast money was never meant for me in the first place. Steamed buns are fine. A school campus is a pretty strange place for a killer like me who's lived on the edge for years. >> The freak sister is a [ __ ] This family's DNA is really evenly distributed, huh? >> He's so handsome. >> Julian Sterling, the star student of Oakridge High, the young master

of the top Sterling family in Crown City. >> He was also the crush of the original owner. >> Wow, Julian is so handsome. >> Good morning, Julian. A star student at best. He has all his Facial features. He's not half as pleasing to the eye as my sister. Hey. >> Um She's a freak herself, and her sister is a [ __ ] With those conditions, she still dares to like you? She has no self-awareness at all. >> Enough. >> Hey, [ __ ] Stop standing with that freak. Come here. I'm telling you to come here.

>> [music] [music] >> You're the freak, Chloe. >> [music] >> Oh my god, that's Chloe. How did she get so pretty all of a sudden? She always wore those thick-rimmed glasses before, so we thought she was really ugly. Turns out her features are so delicate. >> So, what if she's pretty? The star student didn't even glance at her just Now. Exactly. I think she just dolled herself up on purpose to try and get the star student's attention again. Too bad, he's not interested. >> That useless trash is acting really weird today. She's completely different from

her usual cowardly self. Looking for a beating, are you? >> Let go of me. >> Do you know how to apologize? Say it. >> Apologize? Get your filthy hands off me. >> I want you to apologize. >> What are you doing? Let her go. >> Now that Julian's spoken up, this freak will have to do exactly as he says. >> Shut up. This doesn't concern you. Apologize. >> I I'm sorry. >> If I hear you call her [ __ ] again, I'll make sure you know exactly how it feels. Get lost. You just wait. What

are you standing around for? Didn't you hear the bell? Oh. >> [music] >> Chloe, you don't like Julian anymore. >> [music] >> I never liked him in the first place. Let's go. >> [music] >> She's definitely up to something trying To get my attention. No matter what trick she pulls, it's all pointless. >> The bullying Zoe endures at school is probably no less than what I, the freak, get. It's a shame I have no money or acupuncture needles right now. Otherwise, I'd really like to treat this little sister of mine and fix her foot. >>

The genius Dr. Seely, she's the only one Who can save my father. I used all my connections and finally discovered that she and the Shadow's top assassin, Scarlet Shadow, are the same person. I plan to infiltrate the lab and rescue her, but I accidentally exposed my tracks and got them on my tail. Everyone, up. After them. Don't let them get away. >> Victor Sterling The head of the Sterling family, a Top-tier wealthy dynasty. >> Don't want to die? Then get the hell out. >> Need help. Miss the vital organs, you won't die. Of course, if

the bleeding isn't stopped in 30 minutes, I can't make any promises. There's a back door through here. If you survive, remember to wire the money to my account. Operatives from the shadow >> Have you seen a man come through here? Better tell the truth, or else you won't like what happens next. >> Anyone who dares threaten me ends up dead. >> Who are you, really? >> Scarlet Shadow. >> [music] [music] >> This number is only known to Scarlet Shadow. But she was supposed to be How is this possible? Hello. Who are you? >> Scarlet Shadow.

>> [music] >> I knew it. You're alive. The Shadow's old kisses are all dead, but you you can't die. Why? Where are you now? I'll come find you right away. >> I can't see you right now. It's Complicated. My identity has to stay hidden. I need you to take care of a few people. Make it snappy. >> Okay, leave it to me. I'll make sure it's clean. >> The Shadow. Why are they after that man? >> Uncle Victor. This is on me. I didn't get to you in time and you got hurt. I'll take whatever

punishment is Coming. That won't be necessary. Uncle Victor, Uncle What's this? When things got critical a young girl stepped in and saved me. This bank account is what she left behind. A young girl? Um um She seemed like a student. She said if I made it I should wire the money to this account. Take care of it. Ah, yes, sir. >> [music] >> Just how much should I send? She's just a student. If I give her too much, she might not be able to handle it. 160 or 200 million might be a bit much for

her. >> Here. Didn't you run out of money on your meal card? >> To think I, Scarlet Shadow, had the world at my feet. I had money to burn without a second thought. And now I'm relying on my little sister's $10 to get by. Where'd this come from? >> I told Mom I was out of money on my meal card. >> She gave it to me. What about you? >> I've got $4 left on mine. >> How did you know I was out of money? >> You used to hit up Mom every week to top

up your card. It's been over a week now and you haven't gone. >> This little sister of mine, she's really not bad. Let's hurry up and go. >> Are the people ready? >> Don't worry. Come tonight. That freak's going to learn what happens when you mess with us. >> Ugly freak, Scaring me. You're dead. >> [music] >> If you don't make a move soon, I'll be home. >> [music] >> You better make your move or I'll be home soon. >> Hey, brat. Not bad, kid. For a little thing, you've got some guts. Oh, you're not

bad looking either, huh? >> No one's ever blown smoke in my face. >> Oh, really? And then what? >> You just die. >> You're lucky it's not convenient for me to dispose of bodies right now. So, I'll let you keep your miserable lives. Talk. Who sent you? Speak up. >> It was a student from Oakridge High. Ah. >> Vanessa. Such a cute little thing who never learns. A beating's too good for her. I don't mind finding some more interesting ways to have fun. >> The queen bee got cornered by thugs right at the school gate.

They said she hired them to beat someone up, but they got their butts kicked instead. Now they're here to make her pay their medical bills. The principal and teachers are all there. Go check it out. Hurry. >> You didn't go check out the show. >> Not interested. >> Nothing worth watching. From now on, I'll show you things way more exciting and fun. Eat up. Hm. Oh. Well, well, if it isn't our queen bee. What's with this pathetic look? What's the rush? Weren't you so full of Yourself before? cornering people in the bathroom with your whole

gang? So impressive. >> Yeah. Why aren't you so tough now? Where are all your little followers? Oh, right. I heard they all transferred afraid of being dragged down with you. >> Everything you did to Chloe, I'm giving it right back. For the days ahead. You just sit back and enjoy. >> Hey. >> Hmm? >> I don't have any money. >> Hand it over. >> No money. Uh. >> These nerds always say they're broke. They only cough up cash after a good beating. Don't move. What's this? >> Give that back. >> Hey. You dare snatch from

me? This piece of junk. I wouldn't take it if you paid me. >> Hey. Chloe. Get out of here. >> [bell] >> You okay? >> Yeah. I saved up for ages to buy this used phone. It's how I study and look stuff up. Chloe. The person Vanessa hired those thugs to hurt, that was actually you, wasn't it? >> The other day after school. Yeah, I ran into them. >> You're the one who hurt them, and them causing trouble at school. Did you send them to do that, too? >> I didn't even make them beat Vanessa

up. Consider that mercy. >> This [music] Is this really the sister I've known all these years? This feels so unfamiliar. But, a sister this amazing, I really like it. >> [music] >> $200,000. >> [music] >> The Sterling family head is so stingy. Let's go home. Tomorrow, we're getting you a new phone. >> Huh? >> Let's go home. >> [music] [music] [music] [music] >> Chloe, where do you get all this money? >> Didn't steal it. It's all legit. >> But, this is way too much. I know it's hard for you to earn money. Don't. >> [music]

>> Get used to it. What? This is just the beginning. >> [music] >> Let's go. Chloe, great news. You got early admission to Crown University. Chloe, you got to hear this. Check it out. You got early admission to Crown University. I snapped a pic of your solution and posted it on the Crown University forum. The principal reached out to me saying if it's a student, they'll get early admission. And he's dying to meet you. Early admission? Not my thing. Why not? Math just doesn't click for me. And I've got no time to hang around with

those old geezers doing their bogus research. I've got way too much on my plate. Then? Will you go for Crown University's Entrance exam? Crown University. Absolutely. The Shadow is hiding in Crown City. I can't wait to reunite with my beloved organization. >> [music] >> Chloe, whatever the choice you make, I'll always back you up. C6473 What's all this? I'm rigging up my phone And computer with a tracking system and setting up a firewall. I'm not just the top agent of the world's number one assassin organization. I'm also the hacker that terrorizes countless tycoons and officials.

>> [bell] [music] >> You interested? Yeah. Want to learn? I'll teach you. Seriously? Mhm. >> You are burning in hell together. Haha. >> Freak, open the door. You listening? Open up now. Now you're scared, huh? Let me tell you, hiding won't help. Open up or I'll beat you dead. >> You little brat. Where'd you steal that cash? Who'd you steal it from? If you don't clear this up today, I'll Beat you to a pulp. >> Hold up. Don't hit her yet. Zoe said that money wasn't stolen. Let's hear what the kid has to say first.

Right. >> She didn't steal it. Someone just gave it to her. >> Mom, that stuff on the floor is worth at least 8 to 10,000 dollars. Guess how many years she'll get for that? >> 8 to 10,000 dollars? Oh, no. >> My sister didn't steal anything. >> If she didn't steal it, where did it come from? With that face, could she even sell herself? >> Liam. Watch your mouth. That's your sister. >> You bought a computer, too? Let's see you hide this. Ah. Ah. >> Mom, what are you doing? Let go of Liam. >> She's

going to break my hand. >> Arthur Bennett, look at the wonderful daughter you raised. Today she dares to push us, tomorrow she'll dare to hit you. >> I've been putting up with you two all because of Dad and Zoe. From now on, when you see me, keep your mouths shut. Otherwise, I won't hesitate to shut you up myself. And you, Liam, Since you're so curious about where my money came from, then go ahead and call the police. But I'm warning you, if I don't get arrested, I will definitely sue you for defamation and have you

locked up. See? Let me say this again. My sister didn't steal any money, and she didn't do anything shameful. That money was all earned from Programming on websites. I know Chloe doesn't need me to lie for her, but I don't want her to endure these baseless suspicions and malice. >> [music] >> Chloe, that idiot. Exactly. >> Her grades were bad before only because she didn't want to take the tests. >> Didn't want to take them? You're the only fool who believes her. >> The math problem the principal of Crown University put out last year, she

solved it. If you don't believe me, you can go check the Crown University math forum, you. >> Do you know what you're saying? >> [bell] >> Professor, go ahead. I'd like you to help me find someone. Just a couple of days ago, someone Finally solved that world-class problem for me, but we can't get in touch with them. >> [music] >> Oh my. Look, it's her. >> The handwriting is quite good. Very soon, within 3 minutes. Ryan is ranked 10th in world as hacker Q. Having him track an IP is a piece of cake. This What's

this? Their device has a firewall. >> [music] >> It's in Silverwood. Keep narrowing it down. Got it. Interesting. >> Chloe, check this out. What's wrong with my phone? >> It's under attack. >> Who? >> We'll see. When I set up Zoe's firewall, it was just boredom and professional habit. Didn't expect it to be useful so soon. >> They found me. Not only did they reinforce their firewall, but they breached mine, too. And now my device is being counter-tracked. >> Crown City. Probably tied to Crown University. >> That problem. They're looking for you. >> Well, then.

Let's send them a little gift. >> A gift? What kind? [music] How do we even do that? >> Give it here. Much stronger than before. Looks like they switched operators. >> Let's see how they handle this. >> I made my name young, but this is my my failure. >> Riverdale District. I remember that girl also lives there. Quite a coincidence. >> That mole. It's kind of sexy. >> Must be one of the top guys. You've dealt with them more. Can you tell who it is? Looking at the style, it's got to be X. Can't believe

I actually sparred with my idol. Man, I'm thrilled. That's definitely his MO. Solving a math problem and posting about it. I'd really like to meet the guy. This genius hacker's MO is so varied that It's impossible to figure him out. A real genius hacker. >> Any luck finding him? >> Sir, [music] please don't bother looking. The terms you're offering he doesn't need any of that. He solved this math problem, probably just out of boredom or itching to show off. >> [music] >> Good point. This person is so skilled. He definitely doesn't need what I've Got.

>> [music] >> I was being too cheap. >> Your phone's fixed. Get some rest. >> All right. >> [music] >> I had no idea one post would cause so much trouble. I better delete that post right now. >> This is Blue Cove Resort's latest development project. >> [music] >> What's wrong with you guys? >> This. >> [music] [laughter] >> This has to be someone's payback. Mr. [music] Sterling, I can't shut it down, sir. I'll pay for it. Mr. Sterling, my computer got a virus. I swear I didn't save this. Meeting adjourned. Mr. Sterling. Sterling's assistant,

that was a bold move. I've never seen Uncle Victor's face so dark. Haha, that was brilliant. Hey. Uncle Victor, compared to last year, our company's market share this year has actually gone up. It's just my department. Mr. Sterling, your father is worse. Get him on the line now. Dr. Caldwell, the top TCM expert. I'm heading back now. What's wrong? Uncle Victor, my father took a turn for the worse. Let's go. You deleted the forum post? Did Chloe get early admission? >> Chloe doesn't need it. She said she can get into Crown University on her own.

>> Zoe and Chloe are becoming more and more alike these days, both equally annoying. It's actually true. Chloe. She actually turned down such a great offer. Zoe never said a word. Bet it was Chloe who solved the problem. The principal doesn't even know who solved it. >> Perfect. As long as I have the scratch pad, I'm the math genius who solved it. The early admission to Crown University is mine. >> How did you know I have it? From your voice, young lady. You're just a kid. >> A friend referred me. I'm not telling you that

right now. I'll Send the deposit to your account later. Tomorrow, I'm going to Crown City myself to pick it up. And then, I'll decide if I'm in the mood to answer your questions. >> You're too young to be so cocky. >> Mom said a relative of hers is getting married. She got Liam excused from school today and took him to the wedding. Are you going, too? >> No, I'm going to Crown City to pick up something. >> Chloe, how do you have something in Crown City? Oh, Chloe. What are you doing? >> I'm checking your

leg. She knows perfectly well this is the wound I never want to reopen. Isn't it ugly? The muscle atrophy isn't too bad. It can be fixed. >> What did you say? >> I said I can treat it. >> But the doctor said >> Just say if you believe me. >> I believe you. I don't believe I can ever be normal again. But I believe in you, Chloe. >> Mr. Sterling, the toxins in his body have spread to his vital organs. I can't do anything. >> Powerless? Then what should we do? Dr. Caldwell, you're the best

Chinese medicine doctor in Crown City. >> Dr. Seely's medical skills are Miraculous. If we find her, there's still hope for Mr. Sterling. >> Dr. Seely, she's already skins a lot. Dad, I'm here. >> Ah, my skills are just too limited. I can only prescribe a few doses of medicine to ease his suffering. After decades of practicing medicine, in the end, I can only stand by and watch my patient die. >> Dr. Caldwell. >> Ms. Bennett. >> I came to pick up my things and get some medicine. >> I've studied Chinese medicine for decades and never

seen such a sophisticated prescription. Who wrote it? >> [music] >> I'm sorry, I can't tell you. >> My apologies, that was out of line. It's a secret formula, I shouldn't have asked. These are the acupuncture needles you wanted. >> These are exactly the same as the set I used when I was Seely. >> Ms. Bennett, can you tell me who that friend of yours is? >> Grandpa, someone come quick. Grandpa, what's wrong? Get Dr. Caldwell now. This is bad, Mr. Sterling is coughing up blood. The toxic blood is coming out. This is a sign that

his body is failing. I truly can do nothing. >> His complexion is ashen. His lips are dry, and the blood he's coughing up is dark purple. These are the symptoms of blue begonia poisoning, the poison I developed when I was in the shadow. How could it appear here? >> Sigh. >> I can cure his poison. >> Who? Who is this? >> It's her. >> It's actually him. I never expected the chairman of Sterling Group to be a computer expert as well. >> Chloe, what are you doing here? Oh, I get it. You came here putting

on an act just to save my grandpa, just to get close to me. >> Nonsense. You're just a clueless little girl. We won't stoop to your level. Just Leave. >> How sure are you? >> Uncle Victor. >> 100% >> Miss Bennett, after you. >> After all, it's his own father. He actually trusts me just like that. >> Victor, did I hear that right? You're letting this girl treat father. >> Don't let her fool you, Uncle Victor. >> I said let her treat him. If anything goes wrong, I'll take responsibility. Anyone else who talks nonsense, get

out. >> Of all the patients I've treated, I've never had a single failure. Don't worry. >> I trust you. >> I told you we shouldn't have let her treat him. See? Now we're in big trouble. Someone sees her. >> Continue. You all What are you all arguing about? Grandpa, Dad. >> Mr. Sterling's pulse is weak, but he's out of danger. >> Really? Oh, that's wonderful news. >> Miss Bennett, your acupuncture technique, in my decades of practice, I've never seen anything like it. This black blood is toxic build-up. It's good that he spat it out. You

saved Mr. Sterling's life. >> Chloe, thank you. I was blind before, and I apologize. I know you like me. To repay you, >> [music] >> I'm willing to marry you. >> That's really not necessary. >> No, no, no, no, no. We Sterlings always return favors. Heck, I'd even marry into your family. >> Julian, >> yeah? >> Miss Bennett, a moment, please. Could we speak in private? You saved my father, Miss Bennett. The Sterling family won't forget this kindness. If you ever need anything in the future, just say the word. The Sterling family will spare no

effort. >> The Sterling family's influence is immense. That promise alone lets me do whatever I want in Crown City. You're being quite generous this time, Mr. Sterling. >> Why do you say that, Miss Bennett? >> Well, last time Mr. Sterling only gave me $200,000. >> I had Julian handle it last time. I just told him to thank you properly. I didn't expect him to be so careless. That was my oversight. So, this time I'm handling it personally. >> Then I'll accept this favor. Feel free to call me for any more favors like this. I never

have too many favors owed to me. >> I had thought in this world, only Dr. Seeley could save my father. I never imagined you could do it, too, Miss Bennett. >> Dr. Seeley? Do I not look the part? >> But the Dr. Seeley I discovered has another identity. Seeley isn't just a doctor, she's also the top assassin for the Shadow. Scarlet Shadow. But just a few months ago, Scarlet Shadow failed a mission and was lost at sea. >> A doctor. An assassin. Killing and saving lives at the same time. This person is quite something. Maybe

Mr. Sterling's intel was wrong. They are not the same person. >> Maybe. Maybe Dr. Seeley isn't 22, but 18. Maybe Scarlet Shadow didn't actually die. >> Miss Bennett hasn't left yet. I've got a question for you. >> Dr. Caldwell, you two chat first. >> Dr. Caldwell. >> Ms. Bennett, your friend This acupuncture set is priceless. I Only gave it to a girl I met by chance who had superb medical skills and whom I hit it off with. When I got your call, Ms. Bennett, I thought it was her, but the voice and appearance are different.

>> It's exactly the person you're thinking of. >> Is she okay? >> She's fine. She asked me to drop by and visit you. >> Don't try to fool me. She wouldn't do that. >> I've got the medicine. I'll be leaving now. >> Victor, I found him. I found that person. >> Congratulations, Professor. Is the person male or female? >> It's a guy. >> Everyone knows X is a woman. It seems X just happened to block that attack for them. >> Him. Where's my scratch pad? I swear it was right here. Where'd it go? Oh, hey

Chloe, you're back. Vitality Clinic, that's the most prestigious Chinese medicine clinic in the whole country. So, my leg might actually have a chance. >> I'll tell you which ones to boil for tea and which ones for foot baths. I'll give you acupuncture later. >> Ahem. Chloe, why does this medicine get more bitter every time? >> [music] >> Open up. [ __ ] wait. >> [music] >> Chloe, the college entrance exam is getting closer. Why aren't Mom and Liam back yet? This trip was totally worth it. Big cities are the best. >> Where did I Where

did I put my clothes? >> They're in the cabinet on the second shelf. See? Chloe. I have a feeling Mom and Liam weren't just going to a wedding. >> Whatever they're doing has nothing to do with me. >> But something just feels off. Hey. What are you cooking? It's medicine for my leg. Chloe got it for me. You can't just take any medicine you find. You could die if something goes wrong. That brat. She's trying to kill you. That damn girl. >> Hey, what are you doing? Chloe bought this medicine specifically from the Vitality Clinic

in Crown City. >> Chloe wasn't tricked, was she? Those quacks, they specifically deceive Naive people. >> This won't do. This medicine is no good. >> Sorry. >> You. This medicine today, even if it kills me, I'll still take it. >> Get up. Do you trust me? >> I do. >> Since you don't believe me, watch carefully. >> What are you going to do? >> Wait, you really know how to treat illnesses? Don't stab her to death, right? >> Come here. Roll up your pant leg. >> Putting on an act. >> What is this thing? This

Take a couple steps. >> [snorts] >> Chloe, I I can walk. I can actually walk. Dad. I can walk. How could this be? Her leg has been crippled for over 10 years. How? There's nothing impossible in this World. You just haven't seen it before. Stop crying. From now on, you'll have plenty of time to walk. Let's go. >> [music] [music] [music] [music] >> For you. >> What?

>> It's for you. >> Why'd you give me flowers? >> To celebrate. Besides that, everyone else has them. >> Thanks. This feels like the first time anyone's ever given me flowers. >> [music] >> Your leg's healed. Yeah. Let's go. >> Admissions office, Crown Crown University, Crown. >> Admissions office. Who knows which family hit the jackpot to have a top scorer like that? >> Definitely not ours. That loser Chloe only knows math. She's terrible at everything else. If she even gets into a community college, we should be thanking our lucky stars. Of course. >> That eldest

Bennett kid, I heard she's really dumb. You said it. She's always at the bottom of the class. Her mom calls her a loser at home every day. >> How dare you talk about Chloe? She's incredible. >> Shut up. You're always bragging for her. Get out of here. What are you doing? Are you insane? That hurts. >> You dare hit Liam? Are you crazy? Let go. Let go. >> [music] >> Let go. >> I warned you if you ever bully Zoe again, I'll end you. >> [music] >> Since you all call me a loser, then watch

this. >> Crown University admissions. >> I'm from the Crestview admissions office. Which one of you is Chloe? >> That. That family. That one. >> [music] >> I'm Chloe. >> Chloe, I'm from the Crestview admissions office. If you come to our school, we offer a $100,000 scholarship. We'll double it to $200,000. Plus an exchange program abroad. Crown University. For Chloe, we offer $200,000 in scholarship plus >> [music] >> an apartment in Crown City. >> Principal Harris, if he sees us, we're Done. >> We'll be exposed. Let's go. Mom and Liam, why are they acting so weird?

Chloe, I knew it. You're the best. I won't let you down. >> Principal Harris. Principal Harris. Come on. Come on. Uh Chloe, my dear student. Congratulations on getting a perfect score. I wonder, Would you be interested in coming to Crown University? If you agree to join Crown University, I'll personally give you a house. Any location in Crown City. >> A house in Crown City. Any location you want. That's 6 to 8 million dollars. >> Why should Chloe get all that? Such an amazing deal. >> Okay. I'm going to Crown University. >> Then it's settled. We

won't keep you then. We'll see you at Crown University. >> Congrats, Chloe. Freshman. >> Thanks, Victor Senior. >> I was wondering, you kid, what made you tag along with an old man like me? Turns out you already knew our top scorer, this young lady. You've got a thing for her, huh? >> You must be joking. >> All right. All right. I know how you Young folks think. >> Chloe, I always said you were a sharp kid. And look at you now, top scorer. Told you this kid was going places. Always at the bottom of the

class. She was just hiding her true potential. Exactly. A wise man plays the fool. >> Yes, yes, yes. Weren't you the ones just calling me a loser? You change your tune so quickly, you'll trip over your own tongues. Let's go home, and home. >> All right, folks, show's over. Nothing to see here. Go on, scatter. >> [bell] >> Oh, my sweet Chloe. You're amazing. You're my pride and joy. Come on, take a rest. Sit down, sit down. Here. Oh, have some water. I just made it for you. Some premium tea. Here, have a cup. >>

[music] >> No tea? Then have some fruit. I just peeled these oranges for you. Here, open up. Let me feed you. >> Just say what you want. >> Didn't Principal Harris just come over? He said he'd give you a house. >> Whose name are you planning to put on it? >> My idea is to put my name on it. You're still young, just a kid. You can't make decisions. We're all family. Putting my name on it is the same as putting yours. >> Since it's the same, then why should it be yours? >> Look, Principal

Harris said the house is his personal gift to Chloe. Let her decide for herself. >> Chloe, you need to understand what mom's doing for you. You're a girl. You'll get married someday. Then that house will go to your husband's family. Then we'd be losing out big time. >> Then I'll call Principal Harris right now. >> [music] >> Chloe. All right. All right. All right. >> Hey, Principal Harris. It's Chloe. I want to talk to you about the house. >> Have you picked a spot? >> We want it downtown. The size and location don't matter, but

it has to be in my name. I'll text you the card number later. Just deposit the scholarship into my account. You little >> Of course it'll be in your name. It's meant for you anyway. >> Well, thanks Principal Harris. Brett. >> Huh? What's so great about that? Just because she got a perfect score? I could get into Crown University, too. I I might not get a perfect score, but getting into Crown University is a piece of cake. >> Have some oranges. Something just feels off. >> [music] >> Zoe, you're really not coming to Crown City

to finish high school with me. Which school do you like? I'll make it happen. >> I'm sticking with Oak Ridge High. I'll come find you at Crown U. >> All right then. Then I'll go to Crown U and wait for you. You take care of yourself. Anything goes wrong, you call me. >> I will. >> I'm leaving. Mhm. >> You have a safe trip, okay? Chloe, Have a safe trip. >> [music] [bell and music] >> With the original owner's grades and personality, her future was pretty much set. Now that I've gotten my revenge, gotten to

Crown University, and started fresh, she can finally rest easy down there. >> Check it out, it's Serena. >> Woah, she looks even better in person. Is that dress this season's? >> As expected of Miss Sinclair, that aura, that presence. >> Woah, who's that girl? She's absolutely gorgeous. >> She's even prettier than Serena. >> No way, [music] they're not even in the same league. >> [music] >> Look at her, showing up to register dressed like that. Her family can't be well-off. >> [music] >> No wonder. After all, not everyone gets to ride to school in a

luxury car. Done? Then move aside, you're blocking my way. >> [music] >> Oh, it's quite all right. Well, Crown U has to give the less fortunate a chance, I suppose. [music] Just study hard from now on. After graduation, apply to the Sinclair Corporation. I'll even save a spot for You. >> [music] [music] >> Look, that's a Sterling family car. >> Oh my god, Mr. Sterling is here. No wonder they're the top wealthy family in Crown City. See that? Mr. Sterling is here for me. He and I we're from the same world. >> [music] >> No

matter how hard some people try, they Can only look up from the bottom. Maybe in your next life, country bumpkin. Mr. Sterling. >> Chloe. You're so late. I've been waiting for you. >> Did he just call her Chloe? Well, >> well, I was going to marry you to pay you back, but Uncle Victor wouldn't allow it. But hey, it's fine. Even though I can't marry you, I can be your sidekick. I'm also at Crown University. Just say the word and I'll be there. Chloe, you thirsty? I got imported water in my car. I've got imported

water in my car. I can get it for you. Hey, you tired? I'll call someone. >> Don't. >> Oh. >> A better next life, huh? Looks like this life ain't much better for you. >> [music] >> You're going to regret this. >> [bell] >> Liam, take a look at yourself. You dare to compete with me for Crown University's math department's title of math genius? >> Chloe, help me. >> It's her. No wonder they're siblings. Both equally annoying. No wonder you're siblings. Your sister is exactly like you. Such a coward. A coward. I thought she was

actually something. If she hadn't run away today, I would have dealt with her, too. Let me settle the score with you first. I'll deal with your sister later. >> Chloe, why didn't you help me earlier? I'm your brother. >> Why would I help you? You bullied me all My life. Need a reminder? >> You The math department gave me a problem, but I can't solve it at all. I need to keep Chloe on my side to get her to solve it for me. Or everyone will find out sooner or later. Chloe, I know I messed

up. We're siblings. Blood is thicker than water. Can you forgive me? >> Don't call me sister. Zoe is the only sister I have. And another thing, if you dare try anything against me again, watch out, or I'll snap your head off. >> You wait and see. >> Move. Your brother broke this a few days ago. He can't afford to to for it. You're going to pay for it. It's not expensive, Just 1,200,000 dollars. Just 1,200,000 dollars and you can't pay it back. Your brother won't have an easy time from now on. Even if you beat

him to death, it's none of my business. Oh. You'd better beat him to death. >> [music] >> Oh no, Serena's family is powerful and influential. Chloe probably won't have a good time from now on. Sigh, being too Beautiful can bring trouble. >> The other day, I saw you running pretty fast and thought you were a coward. From the looks of it, you're much braver than your cowardly brother who only knows how to beg for mercy. Hillbilly. I know even selling you wouldn't cover the debt. I'm in a good mood today. So, apologize to me properly

on behalf of your brother and I'll let it slide. >> From a distance, I heard you with your Servant, just like a wicked witch from a TV show. What are you doing, Serena? It's Mr. Sterling. Why is he in our department? >> Mr. Sterling, this is between her and me. It's none of your business, is it? >> You're blocking my Chloe's way. So, you tell me, does it concern me or not? >> What do you mean? >> Sorry about that, Chloe. >> Julian. This is between her and me. You'd better stay out of it. Don't

think that just because I call you Mr. Sterling, I'm actually afraid of you. Haven't you heard the news about my engagement to your Uncle Victor? Watch out or I'll tell on you. >> Victor is engaged to you? >> [bell] >> Victor Sterling is engaged to you? >> How dare you call Mr. Sterling by his name? Talk about ignorance being bliss. But I'll give you this, country bumpkin, at least you know who Mr. Sterling is. >> No way, Mr. Sterling is actually engaged to Miss Sinclair. I mean, Miss Sinclair is so lucky. She must be over

the moon. Seriously, he runs the whole Sterling family. >> Our family has just mentioned it in passing. Uncle Victor hasn't even agreed to it Yet. Don't get ahead of yourself. Who knows if Uncle Victor even likes you? >> You. You. You. You. >> You what? Spit it out. Let me tell you something. >> [music] >> From now on, when you see Chloe, you better get out of her way. Consider it a favor. What if Chloe decides to deal with you herself? >> [music] >> Hey, Chloe. Where are you going? Let me give you a ride.

Let's go. Ignore her. Where to? >> Chloe Burnett, Julian Sterling, you'll regret this. >> [bell] >> Zoe, working on your homework. Liam just called me. He said there's this problem that Chloe can definitely solve. If he Manages to solve this problem, the teacher will think highly of him. There's even a scholarship. It wouldn't hurt Chloe either. Just help Liam, okay? I know. I'll ask Chloe. Good. You're such a good daughter. Be good and do it. Do it. Liam, don't worry. That brat loves Zoe. She'll definitely help. If they ever ask you to solve problems again,

Mom will take care of it for you. Oh, right. They're not suspecting you, right? >> Who told Liam to solve a problem? Oh my god. Oh my god. >> Did Liam steal that math problem? You didn't go to the wedding. You went to Crown City with that problem. You tricked Crown University, right? You hid that day because you were afraid Principal Harris Would recognize you, right? >> Zoe, that's not what happened. Listen to me. It's just all that stuff. Ugh. >> I'm going to tell Chloe. >> Zoe, Zoe, wait. Give me your phone. Give it

to me. Mom, give it to me. >> Don't take my phone. Do you know what you're doing? >> Get inside. Get in there. Now. Zoe, you can't make that call. If you do, Liam's life will be ruined. Mom, let me out. >> Let me out. >> Mom. >> Zoe, when you promise me you won't tell Chloe, then I'll let you out. >> [snorts] >> Zoe, your mom told me about Liam's situation. And about this, what they did was wrong. But your mom is right. If this gets out, Liam's life will be ruined. To Chloe, it's

just a question she doesn't even bother with. But for Liam, this is his whole future. I'm not capable. I couldn't give you three a good life. I didn't raise Liam properly, either. And I feel even worse about what I did to Chloe. I >> Mom told me Zoe already knows about the identity theft. She won't tell Chloe, right? >> Zoe said you have a question you need me to solve. >> How does Chloe know? Did Zoe tell her? No. If she knew, she wouldn't be this calm. Chloe. >> Why are you nervous? I just heard

the scholarship is pretty substantial, and if I solve this Problem, all of it goes to me. >> All? All yours. As long as you help me with the problem, I'll give you anything. You >> Where's the problem? >> Oh, well. >> I've memorized the problem. >> That fast? Chloe, you're amazing. If I have more problems I don't understand in the future, can I ask you again? I'll hand this problem in to the teacher first. I'll give you every last cent of the scholarship. Thanks, Chloe. Hey, Chloe. What a coincidence. Are you free right now? Let

me introduce you to some new friends. >> What new friends? >> A young man just like you who is exceptionally talented and a true math genius. Oh. In fact, he just helped the professor solve another difficult problem. I'm going over to see him to encourage the kid a bit. >> A math genius, huh? Well, I'm quite interested. Well, I'm actually quite interested in that. >> Oh, right. He shares your last name, Bennett. He's also from Silverwood. Crown University is truly fortunate this year to welcome two such outstanding Talents like yourselves. Shall we go? >> Let's

go. >> Oh, you're both already here. Looks like I'm the one running late. >> Ah, Principal Harris. >> Good. Ahem. >> Hi. >> Excellent. The younger generation is truly impressive. >> Not at all. You flatter me. What is she doing here? >> Principal Harris. >> Excuse me. Who are you looking for? >> I heard from Principal Harris that the school has a math genius from the same hometown and with the same last name as me, so I came to see for myself. >> This student here looks awfully familiar to me. Principal Harris, is this Chloe

Bennett, the one you personally recruited from Silverwood? That student who the college entrance exam. >> That's her. >> Principal Harris, mind if I take a look? >> Here. >> We're not just from the same place. Not only are we from the same hometown, we even share the same last name. Even our handwriting is a perfect match. >> I practiced handwriting all summer, so hard, but only managed to copy about 70% of it. I'm going to get busted. Oh, no. >> A freshman like that solving such a tough math problem. Now, that's a real math genius.

I wonder if Liam also aced the math section on the exam. >> About Liam here, he didn't even take the college entrance exam. He got in through early admission. >> Early admission? Such big news. How could your own sister not know? >> [music] >> So, you two are siblings. >> Yeah, that's my sister Chloe. We're twins. >> Early admission? Or a perfect score on the Gaokao? >> Oh, it was definitely early admission. That's a huge deal. Liam, no need to be so modest. >> He sure is. A title like math genius and he keeps it

under wraps. You know, I am pretty interested in math myself. I was wondering, Liam, if you could walk us through your approach to that problem. >> I uh I'm not feeling too hot today, a little tired. Chloe, maybe some other time. >> Tired, huh? Or just can't handle it. >> What's going on with Liam? He seemed fine a a ago. >> Ah, it's nothing. I >> Chloe, what are you doing? >> My work. Should bear my name. >> What? You solved this? >> This. >> [music] >> This? Isn't this the problem from the Crown University

math forum? I've asked Liam multiple times, but never got the Detailed steps. >> When you copy someone's handwriting, how can you not think? You can copy handwriting, but not intelligence. >> She knew all about me stealing the answers. Why did she still help me? I was tricked. >> Do you know what it means that the higher you're lifted, the harder you fall? >> So, that problem on the forum was done by Chloe, and this one, too. No wonder you asked to keep your early admission confidential, and even got your high school to cooperate. You stole

that problem from the start. No wonder every time I wanted to discuss problems with you, you always had excuses to avoid it. You never solved it yourself. >> How dare you? You even dared to commit identity theft. >> Chloe, I'm sorry. I know I messed up. I just had a moment of weakness. I've regretted it ever since. Chloe, I can't be expelled. If I'm expelled, my life is over. Chloe, please forgive me. >> Chloe, how do you think we should handle this? After all, he's your brother. >> Chloe. We're only related by blood. Principal Harris,

handle it as you see fit. And I demand a school-wide >> disciplinary >> notice. >> [music] >> No, no, no. Don't do it. Chloe, I'm begging you. Go tell Principal Harris not to expel me. Chloe, please. I'm begging you. Chloe. I'm your own brother. Why are you so cruel? You're pushing me to the brink. >> [music] >> Is there anything you don't have? You don't even need the points from this one question. You gave me what you didn't want, so what does it matter? Do you really have to ruin me? >> Give it to you?

Could you even handle it? You better pray Zoe hasn't been hurt. If that shrew dares to lay a finger on her, I'll make sure you can't stay in Silverwood. I swear I will. Principal Harris, I need to take leave and go back to Silverwood for something. >> Okay. >> Mr. Mr. Sterling, I need to borrow a car. You're really too kind, Mr. Sterling. You even delivered it yourself. Let's go. You're not actually coming with me, are you? I'm going to Silverwood, not for fun. >> You already said that. Get in. >> [music] [music] >> What's

wrong? >> Sorry. I should have borrowed a car from a classmate. After all, it's not Appropriate for you now, Mr. Sterling. >> What do you mean not appropriate? >> Aren't you getting engaged, Mr. Sterling? >> Where did you hear that rumor? >> Well, Miss Sinclair. >> My family did want me to have an arranged marriage with the Sinclairs, but I made it clear I refused. This matter never even reached a conclusion, let alone got started. >> Oh. >> Why isn't she reacting? Not even a hint of surprise? Why are you rushing back to Silverwood, Miss

Bennett? Is something wrong at home? If you're going home, I have time, but I might have to buy a gift on the way. >> No need to bring them gifts. Might as well feed it to the dogs. >> You don't get along with your family, Miss Bennett? >> Liam stole the math problems I solved And impersonated me to fraudulently get an early admission spot at Crown University. Zoe found out and mom had her confined. >> So, it was her who solved it. And she's X, too. Will Zoe be okay? Maybe I should send a helicopter

to speed things up. >> No need. After all, she's her daughter. Mr. Sterling, why are you looking at me like that? Remember something? >> I remembered someone. We met online. She played me like a fiddle and then topped it off with a big present. >> So, Mr. Sterling, how do you like that gift? >> How did you know it was me? >> You have a small mole on your right index finger. >> I thought I had it well hidden. >> It was well hidden, but you ran into me. >> [music] [music] >> You've completely ruined

Liam. He's been expelled. You know that. Are you happy now? Are you happy, please? Are you satisfied now? >> It's all your fault. You told Chloe. If I'm ruined, you're ruined, too. >> Brat. Chloe. >> Chloe. You ruined me. And you dare come back? >> How could I have given birth to such a heartless brat? Such a curse. Even Hurting her own brother. My life is so miserable. >> You did nothing wrong. They dug their own grave. Liam's downfall is his own doing. If you choose to side with them, that's what you'll become. So, don't

feel guilty. Let's go. Pack up. We're heading to Crown City. >> You. You ungrateful brat. You ruined your brother. And now you want to take your sister, too. >> Is there anything I can help with? Ryan, go help Miss Bennett's sister pack her things. >> Oh dear. Oh dear. Chloe, I was just upset with you earlier. I mean, what parent in the world doesn't understand their own child? Haha, right? >> Cut the act. Stop pretending. >> Hey, Zoe, are you really planning to Leave? If you really go with her, then don't call me mom anymore.

Today, either Zoe goes with me to Crown City for school, or you and Liam >> go to jail. >> You, you wouldn't dare. >> You ungrateful brat. I'm your mother. If you dare do this, everyone will point fingers at you. You, you'll be struck by lightning. I'm telling you. >> Chloe, about this matter, your mom and your brother were wrong, but he's already been punished. We're family. How could we let it get to the point of calling the police? >> I used to think you were just a bit too honest, but a decent man. I

never imagined you'd be just as unreasonable. >> Chloe, >> the money in this card is more than enough to repay everything the Bennett family has given me over the years. From Now on, I sever all ties with the Bennett family. We are done. >> What? You want to cut ties with us? >> Zoe. I'm just taking Zoe to school. I'm not kidnapping her. I'm warning you. If you dare bother her again for no reason and disrupt her studies in Crown City, I promise I'll have you and Liam thrown in jail. >> Don't chase after them.

All these years we raised them in great. What's the point of chasing them? >> Mom, we should hurry up and check how much is actually on the card. >> All right. Okay. >> Maybe it's for the best. You never belonged here anyway. >> As children, it's only right to do our duty. But not to the point of blind obedience. People like that don't deserve to be called parents. So, don't blame yourself Or be too upset about it. >> So, how was the show, Mr. Sterling? >> Seeing that you're not too upset about it, I'm relieved.

>> What are you looking at, Mr. Sterling? >> Miss Bennett and her sister get along really well. >> My sister is so pretty with a beautiful smile. She's sweet and quiet. And naturally likable. >> So pretty, a beautiful smile, sweet and quiet. I guess I'm just the quiet type, But I talk a lot around Chloe. Ryan, keep it steady. >> It's definitely more comfy with something to lean on. Your sister's enrollment, I've already had someone take care of it. She can start school next week as usual. I'll take you there then. When did you do

that? While you were asleep. Thank you for that, Mr. Sterling. You're welcome. Get some rest. Chloe, does he like you? Really? Obviously. You're mine. And no one can take you away. I've seen enough of the Shadow's betrayal and scheming. Always alone. Such wholehearted trust. Such unreserved reliance. This is the first time I've encountered it. No one can take me away from you. Let's go home. Babe, did you miss me? I've got a lead on the Shadow. Follow my clues and investigate. Okay, no problem. All right. You're quite knowledgeable about watches. Pick one out for me,

will you? Why are you suddenly picking out a watch? One is nowhere near enough. Wait for me to sort through them. I'll send you a whole box, enough to fill both your wrists. I need a man's watch as a gift for someone around 30. >> [bell] >> Not too flashy, with some substance, something respectable. >> A man? Who? >> A new friend. I'll introduce you when you get back. >> I don't want to meet any 30-year-old man. All I care about, babe, is why you Want to give a 30-year-old man a watch. Is he as

handsome as me? Does he love you as much as I do? >> Fine, if you don't want to meet him. Given your personalities, I doubt you'd get along. I'll send you the address later. Bye. >> Hey. >> Victor arranged a school for Zoe, so I should get him something to show my gratitude. >> This is >> This watch is for you. Thanks for helping my sister find a school. >> It's the work of a master from Switzerland. It wasn't cheap, and you can't even buy it domestically. Seems she put a lot of thought into it.

Thank you. This will be the best gift I received this year. Hey, Chloe. Chloe. I'm done for. >> What's wrong? >> I I pissed off the top-notch teacher that Uncle Victor went through so much trouble to bring from abroad and drove him away. If he finds out, he'll definitely kill me. Please, help me figure something out. >> What's your major? >> Law. Do I not look like someone who knows the law? Uh, anyway, I'm not going into this field in the future. >> How did you get in? >> [music] >> I pulled some strings. My

scores were good enough, and only the law department had spots. So, my family had Uncle Victor pull some strings to get me in. They even got me a top-notch instructor. >> Easy, just find Jace. He's qualified to lecture you. >> Hahaha, Chloe, are you kidding me? If I could find Jace, why would I come to you? >> Is it that hard to find Jace? Oh, the way you say it, it's as if you could actually get him. A hillbilly is just a hillbilly. She doesn't know her place and dares to brag shamelessly. >> Why are

you everywhere I go? Are you bored out of your mind? You, you, you, you jerk. >> I'm not talking to you. Why don't you keep pretending? Can't keep it up anymore. Pretending to be sophisticated when you're not. Get Jace to come lecture. Go ahead. Try and find him. What if I do? If you can actually get Jace to come lecture at Crown University, I'll kneel and call you daddy. You're not worthy. You, let's cut to the chase. $20 million. Fine. But if you lose, you'll crawl in front of the whole school like a dog. Good.

>> Hey. >> But I won't lose. Fine. Keep pretending. >> Chloe, you just agreed with her? Do you know who Jace is? He's not just a regular lawyer. They say he's the prince of the underworld. >> No need for they say, he is. Come to Crown University and help me out. >> Chloe, don't worry. I've called in some backup for you. >> The time Chloe agreed to is almost up. Where's this Jace you mentioned? What's the rush? In a hurry to learn how to crawl like a dog. >> [music] >> Cut the smart talk. You're

just a hillbilly who can't even get close to Jace. How could you possibly get him to come? I think you're just stalling on purpose. Hurry up and kneel down to crawl like a dog as agreed. Don't waste everyone's time. >> Chloe, just admit defeat already. Don't hold everyone up. >> What's all the noise? The time isn't up yet. >> Julian, don't let her fool you. She's just doing this on purpose to get attention in front of the whole school. Now that her bluff's been called, let's See how she handles it. The one who won't know

how to handle it is you. He's here. I really admire your nerve. Even now, you're still pretending. Look, who's that? >> I heard someone made a bet with [music] my babe. So, I'm here to settle it. >> You really came. Chloe, you're amazing. >> Serena, what did you say earlier? My Chloe was bragging? Why are you acting tough now? >> This is impossible. >> That's insane. What's Chloe's background anyway? Jace called Chloe babe. Am I hearing this right? What's their relationship? Serena Sinclair, right? >> You. What do you want? >> Nothing. I heard you made

a bet with my babe for 20 million. 20 million dollars. And to crawl like a dog. >> Serena, hurry up and fulfill your promise. Everyone's watching. Hurry. Hurry. Hurry. >> Transfer the money. 20 million dollars. You're just a broke student. How could you possibly know Jace? I get it now. No wonder Jace calls you babe. You must have hooked up with some rich guy out there then used him as a Connection and used the same tricks on Jace to get him to come here. >> If you dare speak nonsense again, I won't mind doing your

parents a favor and teaching you how to shut up. Chloe, do you know who I am? Victor's fiance from the Sterling family of Crown City. Do you think you can mess with me? >> Serena said last time she's Mr. Sterling's fiance. Chloe has really gotten herself into now. >> Yeah, if Mr. Sterling really goes after Her, even Jace won't be able to protect her. >> Fiance? If Victor knew that you're using his name to embarrass yourself like this, he'd wish he never met you. >> What do you mean? >> I mean you're not even fit

to tie his shoes. >> Fiance? >> You're delusional. >> Chloe, stop being so bitter. I think you're just jealous. I am Mr. Sterling's Fiance and you're jealous that I'm marrying into a wealthy family. What does hooking up with Jace matter? >> He's just playing with you. You're just a peasant and you'll never marry into a wealthy family. >> How could I not know? When did I get a fiance? When did we get engaged? How would I not know? >> I heard our families mentioned it. I thought. >> So just because they mentioned it, you're my

fiance? Then all the candidates my family has ever mentioned could form a line stretching from Crown City to Silverwood. Are they all my fiances, too? Miss Bennett, sorry you had to deal with this. >> No big deal. Just enjoyed the drama. >> Miss Bennett is my savior. To insult her is to insult me and to insult the Sterling family. >> What? >> Apologize. Julia, you called me earlier. Is something wrong with Serena? >> Dad. >> Mr. Sinclair, oh, you're finally here. Serena lost a bet to my friend Chloe. She got mad, started slandering Chloe's character.

She's been flaunting that Uncle Victor's fiance title. Acting all high and mighty. >> Serena, is this true? >> I'm not wrong. She lives in the slums. Her parents work menial jobs. How could she possibly know Jace? She must have met some rich guy first who then introduced her to Jace. >> This face. Mr. Sinclair, what's your plan here? If my babe isn't happy, I wouldn't mind handling it myself. >> Babe, what's really going on between you two? >> Serena, is this how you were raised? Ruining someone's reputation so casually? You're in the wrong here. Apologize.

>> Apologize to her? Who does she think she is? >> If you don't, I'm telling grandpa everything. How you've shamed our family. Then you'll face family discipline. >> Dad. >> Hurry up. >> I'm sorry. >> Your apology? >> Not accepted. You. Enough. 20 million dollars. >> Chloe, don't push your luck. >> I already apologized. >> Don't get too full of yourself. >> Mr. Sinclair, you're usually so reasonable. How do you raise a daughter this clueless? Who can't see reason? >> Serena, enough. Transfer the money. Now. >> 20 million dollars received. >> Serena, see that? Chloe

just played you like a fiddle. She totally owned you. >> Serena has always looked down on everyone, just cuz she's the Sinclair heiress. She's so arrogant. Now she got what was coming to her. >> Exactly. Finally, someone put her in her place. Chloe, I won't forget this. You'll pay for this. >> [music] >> Hold on. Aren't you forgetting something? >> On your knees. Crawl like a dog. But someone like you isn't even fit to be my dog. You >> Serena. Ms. Bennett, I failed to raise her right. The blame's on me, too. I'm sorry. All

right, the show's over. Everyone, Clear out. Oh, babe, this face of yours is adorable. What's with that look? I'm giving you a compliment. Not as good as your real face, but this one's so innocent-looking. Must look so harmless killing someone with it. But no matter what you look like, I'll always love the soul inside. Oh, I really >> Are you done hugging? Let go of me. >> Oh. I missed you like crazy. Let me hug you a bit more. Babe, I love you so much. That bossy yet icy tone. That's exactly the feeling. >> What

brought you back? >> I wanted to apologize to Ms. Bennett. I caused you trouble because of my situation. >> Don't apologize. It has nothing to do with you, anyway. >> So, Ms. Bennett and Mr. Thorne are Friends? Mr. Thorne, I've heard a lot about you. >> Mr. Sterling. I've heard of you, too. Babe, that's what you wanted from me. So, you were giving it to him? If I'd known it was for Mr. Sterling, I would have picked something nicer. Not that this watch is bad, but it's a bit lacking for Mr. Sterling. Babe, it makes

us look tacky. >> Thank you, but that's not necessary. Rarity increases value. Pride comes before a fall. The value of this watch is that Ms. Bennett delivered it to me personally. It's not the watch that's precious. It's the person. >> Just this one watch. It's actually pretty decent. You should really cherish it. Not like me. Everything in my house was given to me by my babe. Compared to rarity increases value, I prefer pride comes before a fall. Everything my babe gives me, I love it all, and I want it all. >> Are you two ever

going to stop? I have dinner plans with Zoe. I'm leaving. >> No, no, no. Babe, you didn't eat anything on the plane. Let's all go together. It's a perfect chance for me and Zoe to get to know each other. >> Let me treat you to this meal. This whole situation was caused by my nephew. Mr. Thorn came all this way, and Teaching at Crown U isn't easy. As my nephew's elder, it's only proper that I treat Mr. Thorn to a meal to properly thank him. To properly thank to properly thank him. >> You're mistaken, Mr.

Sterling. I didn't come to Crown U for your nephew. I came for my babe. >> Suit yourself. >> If Mr. Sterling insists on paying, then I won't refuse. I do love a crowd. [music] Babe, have a seat. >> You head over there. Zoe, you sit right here. >> Sure. >> Babe, you two are really close. Any dietary restrictions? >> No, I'm fine with anything. >> Babe, if there's nothing specific you want, I'll just order what you like. >> Sure. >> Excuse me. Serve the sweet and sour sauce on the side for the squirrel fish. My

babe's not big on sweets. And for the stir-fried veggies, hold the garlic. My babe isn't a fan. Oh, wow. Flowers for the lady. Perfect match. Thanks, babe. >> Chloe, is he a friend of yours? >> Yeah, he's a friend, Jace. >> Hey, Zoe. I'm Babe's. Boyfriend. >> Jace, you should sit across from us. You'll be in the way of the food here. >> Zoe's right. >> Yeah. >> Is he better looking than me? >> Don't mind him, Mr. Sterling. That's just how he is. >> I don't mind. >> Babe, don't look at him. Look at

me. Is he better looking than me? >> [music] >> I've heard a lot about you, Mr. Thorn. I always knew you were straightforward and free-spirited. But I didn't expect you to be quite like this. >> My babe likes straightforward people. She hates businessmen like you with all your twists and turns and pretentiousness. >> Mr. Thorn, you've clearly been around Many women, quite experienced. You understand women better than I do. You >> Enough, both of you. Chloe, try this. It's delicious. Mhm. You should eat more, too. >> Babe, eat this. This braised pork is stewed until

it's really tender. >> Here's some warm soup to warm your stomach. >> Mr. Sterling is quite considerate. But I wonder if you really understand my babe's taste. >> Mr. Thorn, there's no need to spend all your energy competing. Just eat your meal. >> I enjoy it. What's it to you? >> Eat more. Anything else you want to eat? I'll take you to eat it. After we finish, I'll take you back to school. >> Okay. >> [music] >> With those lame skills, he thinks he can chase you? Tell him to go back and train some more.

Besides him, you haven't been making any other sketchy friends, have you? >> Just behave yourself on their turf. >> Babe, when you keep defending him like that, it's hard for me to behave. All right, enough of that. >> Let's get down to business. >> Okay. >> That old fox behind the shadow has been hiding really deep. I used all my contacts, followed the clues for half a month, and finally tracked him down. >> Sinclair Corporation. >> Exactly. Serena's backing? The Sinclair family. That old geezer. On the surface, a philanthropist, an entrepreneur, but behind the scenes,

most of the Shadow's money gets funneled through companies under his name. He only had one biological son, died over a decade ago. Now, the Shadow's operations are run by his adopted son, Marcus. >> An outfit as big as the Shadow can't be a one-man show. Keep digging. This time, I'm ending the Shadow for good. >> No problem. >> What are you doing here? >> I wanted to talk to you about something. Can I come in? >> What do you want? >> At Crown University, the moment I saw you, I just knew. You were the spitting

image of my brother. So, I went to Arthur Bennett for confirmation. You're not their biological daughter. That year, Your adoptive mother gave birth to twins. One of them didn't survive. Your adoptive father couldn't stand to see your mother drowning in grief. While she was still unconscious, he adopted you. You're Sinclair blood. >> The universe has a way of balancing things. I actually got reborn as the only blood relative of my enemy. That's just so ironic. >> Back then, the old man flat out refused to let my brother marry your mother and even locked him up

at home. My brother asked me to take care of your mom, but before I could get there, your mother had already died from illness and the kid was nowhere to be found. Finally, my brother killed himself out of depression. Kid, you're the old man's only bloodline Left in this world. Come back with me. >> I won't go back to the Sinclair family. You can leave. >> I had everything. Are you really not going back to the Sinclair family? >> That old geezer killed my parents. Why would I go back? There's only one reason I'd go

back to the Sinclair family, to get revenge on them. Whether it's the Bennett family or the Sinclair family, You're still my sister. >> Yeah. Chloe, I'm scared that once you find your real family, you'll just leave me behind. >> [music] >> When did I ever say I wouldn't want you? I'm always going to be your sister. >> Mhm. Then let's stay together forever. >> Forever. >> Finally, my dear organization. >> Kid, I'm your grandpa. >> Trespassing. Are you waiting for the police or are you leaving on your own? >> Grandpa is sorry. I failed your

mom and dad, but you're my only flesh and blood in this world. I'll get on my knees and apologize. Okay? Can you forgive Grandpa, please? >> Interesting. >> Hey, Dad. >> Grandpa, what are you doing? For someone who just popped up out of nowhere, is it worth lowering yourself like this? >> Just shut up. Kid, I know you hate me. But you're the Sinclair family's only bloodline. Come home with Grandpa now. I'll make sure to compensate you properly, okay? >> Grandpa has always been uncompromising, so full of authority. Now he's actually Groveling to Baker? She's

already latched onto the Sterling family. How could she possibly care about our Sinclair family? And we're still here groveling to Baker. She doesn't even care. >> Enough. How did your father teach you to be so rude? Apologize. >> I'm not wrong. Why should I apologize? I'm the Sinclair Family's daughter, raised from childhood. What is she, anyway? Is the Sinclair family all made up of this kind of trash? If that's the case, I dare not claim the Sinclair family. >> Enough. Since you look down on the Sinclair bloodline, you are no longer part of the Sinclair

family. >> Grandpa. What did you just say? >> I said, get out of the Sinclair family. >> No, you can't kick me out of the Sinclair family. If I lose my title as Miss Sinclair, I am nothing. Grandpa, Grandpa, please. I was wrong. You can't do this to me. I'm your granddaughter. >> It's too late. The moment you said those things, you should have known this would happen. >> Dad, Please talk to Grandpa for me. I'm your daughter. You can't just abandon me. >> Mr. Sinclair doesn't need another adopted son. All he cares about now

is getting Chloe back. I have to make this right and earn his approval. As for Serena, she's already a useless pawn. >> Chloe. I'm sorry. Please talk to Grandpa for me. Ask him not to kick me out of the Sinclair Family. I I'm so sorry. Chloe, I'm sorry. We're sisters. >> Who says we're sisters? >> Someone [music] drag her back to the Sinclair family. After she faces family discipline, kick her out. Kid, she has already been kicked out. No one will ever bully you again or slander you. Come home with Grandpa today, okay? >> No

way. Even if you paid with your life today and died right in front of me, I wouldn't even blink. This kinship I won't acknowledge. >> Marcus, your brother has passed away. Chloe is the Sinclair family's only bloodline. Marcus, your brother's gone. Chloe is now the Sinclair family's only heir. No matter what, we've got to get her back to the Sinclair family. Don't worry, Dad. I'll make sure Chloe comes back to the family. By my estimation, Richard Sterling only has about 2 months to live. Victor is a devoted son. After his father dies, he'll be overwhelmed.

That's our chance to strike. You're absolutely right, Dad. >> So, Mr. Sterling Sr. was poisoned. I knew it. That old geezer's behind this. And now he's going after Victor, too. >> A while back, Richard Sterling was on death's door. >> [music] >> He was whisked back to the Sterling family. Wonder if he's on his last legs. Humph. The one who can cure the blue begonia poison is already dead in the ocean. Richard Sterling is a dead man. >> [clears throat] >> I think it's someone else who's going to die. >> Albert Sinclair has people working

for him. Four more, and they're all branch members of the Sinclair family spread across different countries. >> These four people, they all have my blood on their hands. >> [music] >> Where are they now? >> Two are here, domestically. The other two are overseas. >> Take them all down. Any trouble? >> The ones here are easy. As for the ones overseas, they'll take some time. If they catch on, they could bolt [music] anytime. Babe, what's your plan? >> Let them come back on their own. >> On their own? Why? >> Because I'm the Sinclair family's

long-lost eldest granddaughter. Because they want me to return to the family. >> That girl is really willing to return to the family. Yes. But she says if she wants to return to the family, she has to follow the rules. Everyone must attend, hold a family assembly and pay respects to our ancestors. It's absolutely necessary. My granddaughter deserves to Have everyone present to recognize her. Make the arrangements. A month later, all Sinclair family members must attend. Anyone who doesn't show up will face family discipline. The auspicious moment is here. The Sinclair family's return to the family

ceremony begins now. Now, please welcome our eldest granddaughter, Chloe. Step forward and offer the tea. >> Grandpa, please have some tea. >> Good. I've been waiting so long for this cup of tea. >> I'm sorry to have kept you waiting. >> Ah, I'll drink it. How is it? Is it to your liking? What did you slip into the tea? >> Haven't given it a name yet. It's derived from blue begonia, though. >> [music] >> How about purple begonia? Red begonia has a nice ring to it. Grandpa, which color do you prefer? That's what I'll call

it. >> Blue Begonia. How could you possibly know that? You You and Scarlet Shadow, what's the connection? >> Take a guess. Old geezer. Been living the easy life for too long. Has your edge dulled? Or perhaps you were always this pathetic. >> You Who are you, really? >> Grandpa. Don't you recognize me? I'm the kid you loved most. Scarlet Shadow. >> Nobody move. We've received a tip that the Sinclair family is involved in multiple illegal activities. The evidence is solid, and we're arresting him now as per the law. >> Past and present lives, all grudges

are settled. >> Line up. Salute. Bow. >> Chloe. >> Here. Are you okay? Let me check if you're hurt. >> I'm fine. >> Hey, Mr. Sterling. Aren't you curious about what my baby is doing in there? Why would she do this? >> I've never cared about what she does or Why she does it. I only care if she's hurt. >> Im him. >> Chloe, I'm glad you're okay. >> Babe, what are your plans after this? >> I want to live an ordinary life for a while. >> An ordinary life is great, and falling in love

is a must. Look at me. I've got the looks, I've got the body, and I know you inside out, making me the perfect choice. >> [music] >> Mr. Thorn, please behave yourself. >> How am I not behaving myself? I'm just stating facts, okay? Look at you, [music] always with that stern face. If my babe were with you, wouldn't she be bored to death? Only I can make her laugh. [music] >> Miss Bennett doesn't like noisy people like you. >> This isn't being noisy. This is being lively and cheerful. My Babe likes me just the way

I am. >> Run, she never said that. >> That's because she's too shy to say it. >> What gives you the right to decide for her? >> I will. >> Hey, babe, where are you all going? >> Chloe.
