Mina, the tea base is running low. Go get some more. Mom, can we start now? Do you want some milk tea or do you want a beating?
Eighteen years apart and you’re still this fierce. That little troublemaker Saul is now a war marshal. Impressive. Stop bringing up my childhood.
I’m the youngest war marshal. I’m a grown man capable of protecting others. How’s our teacher? Mr.
Wheeler is doing fine. He refuses to retire because he’s waiting for you to take his place. Stop joking. I’m just an ordinary single mom.
All I want is for Mina to grow up healthy and happy. That job cost me my husband. I can’t lose my daughter too. Mina, why are you working so hard?
Dominic, what do you want? So, have you made up your mind? Be my woman. The only hard work you’ll need is in bed to please me.
Hey, where are you going? I’m talking to you. You lowly piece of trash. I can crush your mom’s milk tea stall with a lift of my finger.
Show me some respect. My mom earns money with her own hands. She taught me to be kind and upright. We’ve never been lowly.
You’re the coward who only shows arrogance because of your family. Where’s Mina? I’ll go check. Mom, this is my classmate, Dominic Scott, the governor’s son.
He’s been harassing me. I’m sorry, Mom. It’s my fault. Silly child.
How can this be your fault? Mina, still running to your mommy? Don’t think hiding behind this old woman keeps you safe. Who gave you permission to talk to my daughter like that?
How dare you hit me? Do you know who my father is? I don’t care. Raising a son like you, he’s already failed.
Apologize to my daughter. Dominic, this is the internet age. You wouldn’t want public opinion causing trouble for your dad, would you? If my dad finds out, you’re all dead.
Apologize now. Go. Let’s see who dares. Blood.
Marquee. You know me. My dad’s about to get a promotion. I can’t hold him back.
Sir, you’re the fiercest warrior under the war god. Everyone in Srido lives under your protection. Then who permitted you to touch them? Sir, she’s just some milk tea seller.
You must have mistaken her. Apologize to them. I won’t repeat myself. I’m sorry.
What are you staring at? Apologize. Sorry. We’re really sorry.
Get lost. Don’t let me see you again. Are you both all right? We’re fine.
What were you trying to say earlier? The teacher said the approaching martial arts competition is significant. Could you come help? Fine, just once.
After this, if you bother me or my daughter again… That woman must have put a spell on him. He humiliated me in front of everyone. Boss, calm down.
Saul won’t always be around them. We’ll get our chance. Tomorrow night’s the martial arts competition. Saul definitely won’t be there.
Let’s see whose skills are sharper. Reena, it’s been so many years. Have you thought about what I said? Your greed and desire killed your son.
You know it better than anyone. Since that’s the case, let’s play a game. You take your own life and I’ll let your daughter go. How does that sound?
Mom, this jerk is full of lies. Don’t believe him. Do you know why your mom didn’t pick up your call that day? She was on a mission.
Do you know what your mom was doing when my son and his friends were hurting, insulting, and trampling you? Shut up. Your mom was protecting me. Poor little Mina.
Your mom had so many chances to save you, but she didn’t. She let you get hurt, get trampled, living a life worse than death. Shut up. Do you know how your father died?
It was your mom who caused his death. Poor child. You think you really know your mom? It’s this woman who killed her husband 18 years ago and almost killed her daughter.
Now what right do you have to accuse me? Goodbye, Reena. Mom. Are you all right?
I’m fine. There were ambushers outside. It’s handled. Take them alive.
Boss, we removed these from the attackers. Small but powerful bombs. Talk. Who’s your boss?
He won’t talk. Whoever’s pulling his strings has the entire Scott family by the throat. All he cares about is his family’s reputation. The others won’t talk either.
The boss you mentioned told you how my husband died, didn’t he? No. Guess I know who your boss really is. Just kill me now.
Can’t drive the Scots into this. They know nothing. Your boss is Nigel Harrison. What do you want to do?
Let’s turn the tables. According to reports, a massive explosion occurred at the Willifford warehouse, causing numerous casualties. You must be hungry. I’ll make something to eat.
Mom, is there something you want to tell me? I’ve grown up. There are many things I should know, especially about dad. Mom, things are complicated.
Actually, your dad is not dead. What? Where is he now? Your dad is Nigel.
What? No way. I personally handled your husband’s body. My father wanted to kill me and my mom.
Actually, he doesn’t know you’re his daughter. It all started 18 years ago. My best friend Emily was during training. Emily, out of all the young recruits, you’re the most dedicated.
Thank you. Only so serious? Here, get your strength up. Someone drugged the water.
Emily was assaulted. I found out this bastard had assaulted many girls, but no one dared speak up. What happened then? Emily’s brother, Toby, my husband in name only, joined the investigation.
We wanted Nigel to face justice, but less than three months later, Nigel vanished. And worse, Emily was pregnant. So, Emily is your birth mother. That’s why you’ve been trying so hard to protect me and blaming yourself.
Emily’s health worsened. When I came back from my mission, she had passed away. Before Emily died, she entrusted you to me and Toby. So we married to protect the person Emily cared about most.
So Toby’s death was a warning. Nigel knew we were investigating. Toby was protecting me and Mina, but Nigel didn’t know I was involved. He never thought a woman would stand up to him.
But why didn’t you ask Mr. Wheeler for help? I couldn’t risk Mina getting hurt. She was only two years old, so fragile.
I hadn’t learned how to be a mother yet. So I ran away. I distanced myself. But even then, I still didn’t protect her well enough.
Mom, you’ve always protected me. You’re the greatest mom in the world. It’s not your fault. I’m sorry.
It’s over now. Reena, maybe I shouldn’t have told Mina those things. Of course you should have. She has the right to know the truth.
Give Mina time, and give yourself time too. You’ve raised her well. She’s stronger than anyone thinks. I owe you a big favor.
Then I’ll have to think carefully. Is any wish okay? Of course. I mean what I say.
It’s a pre-recorded show. No need for all this formality. Get down. The power of a smile also shines, lighting the lanterns in our hearts to illuminate the future.
Welcome to the Warm Heart Project. Let’s give thanks to Mr. Nigel Harrison who initiated this charity event. Hello everyone.
I’m Nigel Harrison. Mr. Harrison, regarding the adjustments to this event, were they influenced by the bombing incident from two days ago? Yes, that was a regrettable tragedy.
That poor girl, Mina Lawson, her mother, Raina Lawson, and Wilbur Scott, who tragically lost his son. They all perished in that explosion. Mr. Harrison, what is your perspective on this tragedy?
The individuals involved have passed away. Sadly, we can’t reconstruct the case now. But regardless, the root of this tragedy lies in the failure in family education. Parents are a child’s best example.
Education is the foundation of everything. I’m a businessman. Money, power. Those are the only things in this world worth chasing.
Mr. Harrison, that’s definitely you in the video, isn’t it? Do you have anything to say about it? As for those lower classes, hurry up and fix the problem.
They’re just tools and labor. Slander? This is simply slander. My team will investigate thoroughly.
We’ll sue you. This is definitely an accident. They’ll always be controlled by us. Charity events are just tools I’ve cultivated to keep them in line.
Hello everyone. I’m Reena, the woman from the news who was reportedly killed in the explosion alongside Wilbur. I’m Mina’s mother. You’re still alive?
What’s wrong, feeling disappointed, Nigel? Oh my god. The mother caught in a scandal back from the dead. Quick, get the camera on Reena.
You claimed you grieved our deaths. So why aren’t you happy to see me? I’m just surprised. Miss Lawson, how did you escape the explosion?
What about your daughter? My daughter and I were saved by kind people. As for the others, you’ll have to ask Mr. Harrison.
He knows more than I do. Miss Lawson, I advise you to choose your words carefully. What does this have to do with me? First you release these fake videos, now you try to throw mud at me.
This show is just like your public opinion war against the Scots online. After all, you just called them rumors yourself, Nigel. Aren’t you worried about saying things like this on camera? It will look bad.
Everyone here works for me. It’s just a recorded show. Oh, meaning the final edit will be up to you too. Of course.
We’re worlds apart. Trash from the bottom like you would never understand. What are you paid for? Get this woman out of here right now.
Mr. Harrison, this is huge news. We should get more footage. Remember who you work for.
Get that woman off my set now. What? Wait. This isn’t recorded.
It’s live. It’s a nationwide live broadcast. What did you say? Looks like there’s no way to cover this up now.
This whole thing is a complete sham. Seems I should just leave. I suggest you stay. The building’s surrounded by reporters and media.
If you can’t give them a proper explanation, everything you’ve built over the years, your reputation, your position, will all come crashing down. Who the hell do you think you are? You’re nobody. What standing do you have to talk to me?
This is Mr. Jake Ford’s will. Is that authority enough for you? All right, everyone.
Back to the interviews. Fine. It’s just a spliced fake video and empty words from a woman with her own dirty secrets. Who knows?
She might have killed someone. I trust everyone can see the truth. All right then. Let’s get to your first crime, Emily.
Do you remember her? Who is this? I don’t remember. What about Toby, who you cruelly harmed?
Have you forgotten him too? You’ll be held accountable for these baseless accusations. If you keep slandering me, you’ll end up in jail. After you raped Emily, she suffered severe physical and mental harm and died within a year.
Her brother Toby waited desperately to bring you to justice. But you killed him cruelly and faked it as an accident. Have you really forgotten? Or are your crimes over the years so heinous you can’t remember them all?
Mr. Harrison, are the accusations true? Can you respond? Who’s Emily?
I don’t know her at all. I’m an upright and incorruptible person. I’ve never done such things. What if I have evidence?
Answer me. Show your evidence first. If you can prove I did these things, I’ll confess my crimes to the whole nation on camera. But if you can’t produce evidence, you have to publicly admit that you and your daughter are criminals who seduce men and swindle money.
Okay, everyone, please come out. It seems you’ve lost. No way. Those victims, just like Emily, they promised to testify for us.
Did you really think I was the one getting played? You underestimated me, Saul. From the very beginning, my target was your father. That spot has to be empty before I can take it.
Don’t look so shocked. I just played along with your plan. Your clever little scheme gave me the opening. For old time’s sake, I won’t let your father suffer too much.
What? You say you’re Mr. Jake Ford’s son? That this was all Mr.
Jake Ford’s plan? After all these years working together, why would he set me up like this? You’re Mr. Jake Ford’s son.
Now is not the time for this. This farce needs to end. It was a complete setup from the start. I hope the investigation clears my name and finds the truth.
What did you do to those girls? You’re the one who dug up those old cases. You made them relive the pain. That’s on you, isn’t it?
Don’t look at me like that. You can’t do anything anyway. Goodbye, loser. Wait.
Mina. Everyone. I’m Mina Lawson. Get the camera on me.
I’m the daughter of Emily, the sinful child left behind after Nigel Harrison violated her. His dirty blood runs in my veins. So, I’m the proof you need. Mom, I know you didn’t want me here to protect me, but this is my fight.
I want to protect you, and I want to get justice for my birth mother, Emily. So I’m not afraid of you. I won’t be afraid of you. You say you’re my daughter, so you are.
What a joke. That’s impossible. We can do it right here. A DNA test.
See if I’m lying. I dare you. Can you do it? For years, this bastard forced me to make fake videos.
If I don’t kick him when he’s down now, I won’t be able to live with all that shame. Get the paternity test done now. Nobody leaves. You won’t even take the paternity test.
Guess that’s you admitting it in front of everyone, right? Nigel, your advisers are done. Surrender now. You bastards.
If even a young girl has the courage to stand up, how can I be a coward? Sorry, Reena. I ran away. Hope I’m not too late.
Thank you for coming. Looks like you lost. I didn’t. There’s no way I lost.
Wilbur already gave me all the evidence of your crimes. Seems like you’ll never bounce back from this. You bastards. Ena, have you lost your mind?
She’s your own daughter. Back off, all of you, unless you want me to blow this little brat’s brains out. How do I know you’re telling the truth? Nothing in this world tastes sweeter than power or feels better than money.
What’s wrong with chasing that? You were wrong from the start. You lost from the beginning. And you?
Where’s your high ground? When your daughter was being violated, weren’t you protecting Wilbur? Can you honestly say you had no selfish motive? That you didn’t abandon your daughter to curry favor with the powerful?
My mom is great and brave. She faced bullets flying everywhere, protected countless people, saved countless lives. Then answer me. If it was a choice between tens of thousands of lives at risk on one side, and your daughter’s life hanging by a threat on the other, what would you choose?
I… I… You think I didn’t have a backup plan? I planted 20 bombs in this city.
They’re set to blow up in 30 minutes. Only I know where they are. If I don’t walk out of here alive today, countless people will be going down with me. Get me a helicopter and cash.
I’m leaving now. Are there any better ideas now? Mom, don’t listen to him. Don’t let this bastard go.
He’s got so much blood on his hands. I don’t care if I die. His filthy blood runs through my veins. I’d be better off dead.
Mina, don’t talk nonsense. You’re my daughter. How could you die for this monster? Sweetie, your mom’s right.
You really are my good daughter. If it weren’t for you today, I’d never make it out alive. Whether you’re my daughter or not, thanks for that, bastard. Nigel Harrison, take my life and spare Mina’s.
Mom, we’re both foxes from the same den. Stop playing innocent. I’ll cut off my own hands and feet. Will you let my daughter go?
You’re insane. Sure. Mom, no. That man won’t honor any deals.
Report. I remember her now. When I was 12 during that terrorist attack, she saved me. We can’t let a hero like that lose her daughter.
We got to help her. If everyone searches together, maybe we can find the bombs in 30 minutes. Count me in. I’m in too.
All bombs located. Bomb squads handled them. You tricked me. You…
No, mom. Mom, I promise I’ll always remember you. Mina, it’s all over now. Emily, may you finally rest in peace.
Mom, Reena’s been taking really good care of me. I’m happy now. I swear I’ll live a joyful life always. Thank you, Saul.
Reena, since everything’s settled, remember that wish you owed me? What wish? The truth is, I’ve had feelings for you since that mission 18 years ago. So, would you give me a chance?
She will. Mina, it’s my first time wearing a wedding dress. Do I look strange? Mom, you’re the most beautiful bride I’ve ever seen.
Reena, you look really beautiful today. Thanks. You’re quite handsome too. Are you ready, Mr.
Saul Ford? No matter what the future holds, whether in poverty or in wealth, in sickness or in health, do you promise to remain loyal to Miss Reena Lawson, never abandon her, and protect her for a lifetime? I do. Reena, do you promise to be loyal and true to Mr.
Saul Ford through riches and health or any challenges life may bring and to walk hand in hand with him for the rest of your lives? I do. No way. Reena, I won’t let you marry him.
Raina, no one else but me can be your true husband. What are you two standing around for? Let’s go.
