Child, this is Lady Sola, the woman who saved our ancestors and whom the Clark

family has sworn to serve for generations.

Lady Sola?

She barely looks older than I do. She saved our ancestors?

Just how many centuries has she been alive?

It all goes back to the royal court in the Middle Ages.

To make himself immortal, King Villorn ordered a forbidden ritual that

sacrificed a hundred children and brought misery to the entire kingdom.

The blood of these wretches will pave my way to immortality. It is the highest

honor they could ever receive.

You would trade innocent lives for immortality. You are unfit to rule this

kingdom, and even less worthy of eternal life. You traitor!

If you pity them so much, you can die in their place.

Guards, chain her to the stake!

Yes, your majesty!

Why is it snowing? Throw those children onto the pyre, too!

Burn them now!

Touch them!

That's impossible!

You didn't die! The immortality ritual worked! Seize her, and you'll be

rewarded with ten million gold pieces!

Yes, your majesty!

You want to kill me?

A demon!

She's a demon! She can't be killed!

Villock, I can't die, but you can.

Captain!

We belong to the Clark family.

Please take us in. Let us follow you from now on. Why would you follow an

immortal monster like me?

You saved our lives, not just us.

Our children and every generation after them will serve you and swear our

undying loyalty.

My lady, my ancestor said the ritual made you immortal, but at a price. Every

hundred years, you lose your sight for three months. That time has come again.

Sadly, I am too old and failed to serve you now.

My granddaughter will have to take my place.

Lift your head.

What is your name?

I'm Selene.

My lady, what would you like for dinner?

Whatever.

How about a walk in the garden?

No. I've been stuck in this dreary estate for three whole days.

Every day, all you ever say is no or whatever.

Don't you know any other words?

Be quiet.

Oh, and there's be quiet.

Then can you tell me your story?

What does immortality feel like? Is it fun?

Look out the window.

What do you see in the garden?

What else would be in a garden?

Flowers? Graves.

Why would you put graves in your own garden? Who's buried there? My parents,

my mentors, my students, even their descendants.

All these years, I've watched people leave and die.

In the end, I'm always the one left behind.

If there were any way, I would have chosen death long ago.

Are you serious?

Do I look like I'm joking?

What are you doing?

Grandpa told me to do whatever you ask.

You said you wanted to die, so I'm helping.

You really can't die?

But does it hurt?

Instead of worrying about me, you should worry about yourself.

This dress cost me 50 gold pieces.

It will come out of your future wages.

What? But I was trying to set you free.

My lady, it wasn't easy to borrow the latest electrotherapy machine.

Want to try it?

Nothing?

Then I'm turning it all the way up. They say full power can knock out even the

wildest horse.

Oh, no, no, no.

Don't tell me it's broken.

My lady!

I borrowed this thing.

If it's broken, you'll have to pay for it.

Why did you bring me out here?

This time, I found the strongest poison I could get my hands on.

This could be your last meal.

I even picked a place with a beautiful view.

How do you feel?

Terrible.

Then I'm officially out of ideas.

Maybe we should stop trying.

Then let's go home.

That's my trump card.

That's what you get for docking my pay.

My lady?

Sola!

My lady, I never thought you'd actually die after a fall that high.

Your body must be scattered in pieces.

Don't worry. At first light tomorrow, I'll go down into the ravine and put

every piece of you back together.

No need.

I already found all the pieces myself.

Ah! A ghost!

You and I aren't the same.

If you fall, you really will die.

You saved my life.

I swear I'll repay you.

How?

Meet me by the well in town tomorrow.

Don't worry. This time, I promise I'll kill you.

For the first time in this long, tedious life, I'm actually curious how she'll

try to kill me tomorrow.

Somehow, being alive feels a little more interesting.

Selene?

Selene?

She's probably hiding somewhere, waiting to shove me down the well.

So immortals really do exist.

Who are you?

I am a descendant of King Vilord, here to reclaim the spoils that rightfully

belong to the Crown.

That tyrant slaughtered innocent people and stopped at nothing to gain

immortality. Yet his bloodline still survives.

What? Have you come here to die?

Do you think I would have come without a plan?

Bring her out.

My lady!

Run! Don't worry about me!

Don't move!

Sola, take one more step and she dies.

What do you want?

My family has pursued immortality for generations.

Thousands of slaves died in our experiments.

According to my ancestors' records, you're the only success.

I'll lock you in my dungeon and carve you open, piece by piece, until I

uncover the secret inside your body.

Drop the sword!

Or I'll kill her!

Don't drop it!

Solely forget about me!

Go.

Tie her up. Yes, sir.

What is your name?

I'm Selene.

You and I aren't the same.

If you fall, you really will die.

Sola, you saved my life.

Now I'm paying you back.

If I die, no one will ever be able to use me against you again.

Sola, if you can't die, then live.

Live well.

Selene!

Wanna try it?

That's my trump card!

Selene, you're trying to scare me, aren't you, Selene?

You said you wanted to die, so I'm helping.

Selene, don't leave me alone!

This time...

Want to try it?

My blood!

My blood will leave a mark that follows you into your next life.

In your next life, no matter what you look like or where you are, I will find

you.

Mrs. Sola, he's here.

I am Andre of the Clark family, at your service, mistress.

Speak.

My lady, the cities you had us acquire have all become major economic centers.

Your assets now exceed those of many nations.

I don't care about any of that. Your family can continue managing it.

The old diviner gave your family a lead on Selene's reincarnation. Did you find

her? According to the lead, the girl...

should be a daughter of the Caroline family, the most powerful of the city's

four great families.

But she disappeared more than ten years ago. Then why aren't you out there

looking? At once, my lady.

Selene, where are you?

Mrs. Sola, my teacher's divination says your bond with Selene will lead you to

her today.

But my teacher doesn't have much time. Please come at once.

All right.

Do you even know how to drive? You think driving a sports car makes you special?

I'm sorry.

I'm in a hurry.

This should cover it.

Huh! You think you can just throw money at me? So what if you drive a sports

car? Who do you think you're buying off?

Ow!

I think it's shattered!

Ow, my back!

I think I slipped a disc.

Then how are you standing?

I don't care. I'm not getting up until you pay me enough.

Let's see which one of us gives in first.

Here.

Oh my god.

She's actually paying me?

Thea, are you okay?

Ruth, perfect timing. I got lucky today. A rich woman hit me with her car. I

counted it.

There's 20 grand here. Enough for Millie's surgery.

But you were hit by a car.

Thea, this is for your medical bills.

You can't give it to me.

Oh, I'm fine.

I was faking it back there. See?

I'm totally fine.

Millie, quick.

Say thank you to Thea.

Thank you, Thea.

Mrs. Sola, you arrived too late.

My teacher has passed away.

My lady, what would you like for dinner?

My lady, it wasn't easy to borrow the latest electrotherapy machine.

Want to try it? You saved my life.

I swear I'll repay you.

Selene, in this long life of mine...

You are the only person I have ever failed.

Mrs. Sola, my teacher's divination says your bond with Selene will lead you to

her today.

Selene, where are you?

I finally saved enough for Millie's surgery.

I'm treating myself to an extra hot dog today.

Pass him! Ram him off the road!

Oh, my precious George. Here, have an apple. I just washed it. Don't spend all

day playing video games.

Oh, Thea, you're home.

It's raining outside. Did you get wet? What do you want? Just say it.

Well, about Mr. Carter, the man I introduced you to. Stop right there!

Last time, you said he was three years older than me.

Turns out he was three years older than dad.

You said the next guy had a steady job. He had just gotten out of prison.

Then you said you'd found an honest man.

He was completely bed-ridden.

I don't care what you say.

I'm not going this time. How dare you? You don't get a say in this.

We already settled it with Mr. Carter.

Tomorrow morning, you're marrying him. And that afternoon, he'll wire the $200

,000 straight into my account.

Since when is selling people legal?

He pays, you hand me over?

I'm not going.

Marry him yourself.

You won't marry him?

Then how am I supposed to marry Daphne?

Her family said they won't even consider me unless I have $200,000.

Exactly! If Thomas hadn't taken you in back then, you'd probably be dead in a

ditch somewhere.

What, I raised you all these years just for you to turn into an ungrateful brat?

I am working, aren't I?

When I earn enough, I'll pay you back.

Pay us back?

You? You're a bottom-of-the-barrel delivery driver.

How many lifetimes will it take you to save $200,000?

Exactly. By the time you save $200,000, Daphne will be a grandmother.

Enough! I heard everything from outside.

Both of you, stop pressuring Thea.

Thea dropped out of college to work and support this family.

What more do you want from her?

That's only because you're useless!

If I don't turn to her, who else am I supposed to turn to?

The $200,000, I'll get the money.

Hey, what's in this bag?

Oh my god!

I knew you had money stashed away, old man!

I'm calling Daphne right now!

Son, come on! I'll go to the bank with you right now!

Let's go, let's go!

Dad, doesn't that private museum only pay its security files $2,000 a month?

Where did you get this much money?

Mrs. Sola, Thomas, the guard on duty last night, stole the medieval painting

you recently put on display.

Then go get it back.

Hurry! Yes!

Dad, have you been going to the docks after work to unload cargo again?

Even if I wanted to, no one would hire an old man like me.

Don't worry, Thea. The money, I borrowed it from an old friend. Dad, we're barely

scratching by. Who would lend us $200,000 for no reason? Look at me and

tell me the truth.

Where did that money come from?

Thomas, hand over the painting you stole from the museum right now!

The painting.

I already sold it.

You sold it. Then we're calling the police. You can spend the rest of your

life in prison. What painting?

Dad, did you steal something?

Take me.

I'll do the time.

Just leave my family out of this.

Don't call the police!

I'll pay for your painting.

If I'd gotten there one moment sooner, I might have learned your doll something

about Selene.

I don't care. I'm not getting up until you pay me enough.

Let's see which one of us gives in first.

Don't ever let me see you again.

Mrs. Sola, Thomas, the guard on duty, sold the painting he stole from your

private museum. We brought his daughter in.

You need me to deal with something this minor?

I'm sorry, Mrs. Sola.

Hey! Let go of me!

Wait.

You. You're the... sucker from earlier I mean the beautiful kind-hearted lady

what a small world do you have any idea what you cost me come on it's just a

painting I'll pay for it fine that painting dates back to the Middle Ages

it's worth two million dollars cash or card do you take payment

plans security call the police wait don't call the police

If you call the police, my dad will go to prison.

As long as you don't, I'll do anything you ask.

Anything?

Yes!

Then take off your clothes.

From now on, you'll work off your debt at my museum.

Sign this.

What is that, some kind of slave contract?

In your time, I believe it's called an employment contract.

In your time?

You make it sound like you're from another era.

$5,000 a month?

How long will it take me to pay this off?

30 years.

You'll finish just in time to retire.

30 years?! During that time, every dollar you earn working for me will go

towards the debt.

Whatever you earn elsewhere is your business.

Put simply, while you're here, you're my employee.

This is illegal!

I have rights, you know!

Assistant, call the police.

Already signed, boss!

Thea?

Yes, boss!

Thea, your new cleaner reporting for duty. Tell me to sweep and I won't dare

touch a window!

Starting today, you're responsible for cleaning this gallery.

Okay.

Are these inventory numbers?

How is anyone supposed to remember this many digits?

Some of the pieces here are for sale. Those are price tags.

This thing costs $30 million?

What about that one?

$60 million.

You left a $60 million piece sitting on the floor?

I saw this on TV.

It's the crown at the National Museum.

Boss, does that mean yours is a fake?

Did the crown you saw on TV have the central ruby at the top?

I don't think so.

Oh my god!

Then this one must be priceless!

Instead of gogging at the exhibits, worry about finishing your work today.

I'm just cleaning a few dozen exhibits.

I'll be done before lunch.

Give me the tools.

It's tiny!

How long is this going to take?

You can use a mop if you prefer.

But if you damage anything in here, the cost comes out of your pay.

Who are you?

Why are you looking for my daughter?

She's my friend.

My daughter was only five when she disappeared. How old could you have been

back then? How could you possibly remember her? I will never forget her.

Cullen, we should be grateful that someone wants to help us find our

daughter. This is my daughter's childhood photo album.

Does she have any identifying birthmarks?

Yes. My daughter has a moon-shaped birthmark behind her ear.

It really is.

It really is Selene.

Selene, I will find you.

Be careful.

I'm fine.

My foot just slipped.

I meant my things.

Break one thing in here, and even a hundred years of work wouldn't pay for

it.

Cold-blooded capitalist.

You said you wanted to die, so I'm helping.

If it's broken, you'll have to pay for it!

You saved my life.

I swear I'll repay you. My blood will leave a mark that follows you into your

next life.

Celie, you've been right beside me all this time.

This time, I will never let anyone hurt you again.

Boss, you wanted me?

I need you to deliver this document to the owner of the Grey Gallery.

Me? Boss, shouldn't your assistant deliver something this important?

Thinking of turning me down?

Do this, and I'll cut your debt in half.

I'll do it! I'd deliver a bomb if you asked. Thank you, boss!

Who let this beggar in? This isn't a garbage dump.

Oh my God, how did security let someone like this inside?

Trash like her couldn't afford even a corner of one of these paintings.

Hello, Mrs. Sola sent me to deliver this document.

Miss Sola, have you looked in a mirror?

Someone like you works for Mrs. Sola?

Scammers will try anything these days. Imagine using Mrs. Sola's name just to

worm your way into high society.

You fraud.

Get on your knees and clean my shoes, and maybe I won't call the police Then

you can crawl back to whatever slum you came from kneel down clean her shoes

clean her shoes

Take a good

look miss Sola sent me herself insulting me is insulting her you filthy cleaner

Mrs. Sola, what are you doing here?

If I hadn't come, I'd never have known my people had to kneel just to speak in

your gallery.

No! That's not what happened!

Mrs. Sola, please let me explain. This rude cleaner threw coffee on my shoes

first. She's a fraud. She even stole your confidential document.

I was only disciplining her for you.

The document?

Boss, I've held onto it the whole time.

Not even one corner is bent.

I sent Thea here personally.

She speaks for me.

Insulting her is insulting me.

Miss Sola, I was wrong. I truly didn't know she worked for you. Please give us

one more chance.

The Grey Pyreum can't afford to lose its partnership with you.

Please.

Effective immediately.

The Clark Group is ending all business ties with the Grey Gallery.

Yes, Mrs. Sola.

What are you standing around for? Come on.

Coming, boss!

Mrs.

Sola, the Carolant family's invitation to this weekend's charity gala just

arrived.

The Caroline family will hold a grand charity gala this weekend, where they'll

name her adopted daughter Eve, sole heir to the family fortune. Their adopted

daughter will inherit everything?

Have Cullen and Catherine completely given up on finding Selene?

It's time for Thea to meet her birth parents.

When she learns they've been searching for her all these years, she'll be so

happy.

Take this. I need you to do something and fast.

Understood, Mrs. Sola. Right away.

I'm reading!

Boss, I swear I was reading. I wasn't slacking off.

Morning, boss.

There's a gala this weekend.

Would you come with me?

I'm in!

Don't worry, boss. I promise I won't embarrass you.

Miss, it's done.

We've cut off every investigator Mr. Kennan hired and destroyed every lead

they found.

We've also forged the death certificate.

family owns is mine.

No one is taking it from me.

Boss, it's squeezing me to death. I can barely breathe.

It suits you.

I have something urgent to handle, so I'll be about ten minutes behind.

The driver is pulling up at the main entrance.

Go inside and wait for me in the ballroom, alright?

Alright.

Ruin Miss Eve's gown!

Someone push me from behind!

Liar! You're a lowly cleaner in a rented dress who snuck into the Caroline

family's gala, and now you've ruined Miss Eve's gown.

Miss Eve's gown.

Oh my God, trash like you reeks meeks of poverty.

You could sell every bone in your body and still not afford a single thread in

Miss Eve's dress.

How did security let a filthy beggar like her inside?

She's an eyesore.

Security, throw this thieving trash out.

Enough.

It's only a dress.

I'm not about to stoop to arguing with gutter trash.

Miss Eve, you're far too kind.

Trash like her has no manners and deserves no mercy.

Exactly. Look at her. Anyone who didn't know better might think she was the

Caroline family's heiress, the star of tonight's gala.

You think a filthy cleaner like you can compare to me, huh?

Get on your knees right now lick every drop of wine off the floor

You heard miss Eve get on your knees

Do you think you're doing to the Caroline family's is rightful heir

No,

this

is impossible mom dad don't let this lowly cleaner fool you your real

daughter died years ago You both saw the death certificate!

She's an imposter after the Caroline fortune!

Did you think a fake death certificate could bury the truth forever?

Look closely.

This DNA test proves with 99.99% certainty that Colin and Catherine

Caroline are Thea's biological parents.

Mr. and Mrs. Caroline, I believe this is all the proof you need.

Oh, my daughter.

It really is you. I finally found you.

My child, I'm sorry I didn't find you sooner.

You're coming home with us, now.

Mom, Dad, I'm Eve. I'm the daughter you raised for 20 years. You can't abandon

me!

Call me mom, you vicious woman.

Mrs. Caroline, I've already uncovered the truth.

For more than a decade, this woman secretly intercepted every private

investigator you hired and destroyed every lead that could have brought you

to Thea.

Eve, we adopted you and gave you everything.

And this is how you treated my own daughter?

Today. Before everyone here, I, Cullen Caroline, hereby declare, from this

moment on, the Caroline family cuts all ties with Eve. She is no longer part of

this family. The entire Caroline fortune and the sole right to inherit it will go

to my biological daughter, Thea Caroline.

Security, get this trash out of here.

You're the Caroline family's sole heir now. We brought you here to unwind, and

the hottest male models in the city are all here.

Look at the lead dancer.

Those abs, that V-line.

Pick anyone you want tonight.

My treat.

No, thanks. I'm actually allergic to men's abs.

Oh, one look and I break out in hives. We should really go home.

Hello, Miss Caroline.

A Miss Sola asked me to bring you these flowers and invite you to join her in

the rooftop hot spring.

Well, girls, my boss is looking for me. I've got to go!

Um, the attendant said all the therapists up here were men.

So, where are they?

Miss Caroline, Mrs. Sola sent all the male staff away five minutes ago.

So petty.

Who else were you hoping to see?

Do those male models look better than me?

I... I... My nose is bleeding!

It's the heat! It's definitely just the heat!

Sir,

just as you predicted, the immortal has left her heavily guarded estate to

accompany the Caroline heiress.

This is when she's most vulnerable.

Give even the strongest monster a weakness, and she becomes nothing more

than a sitting duck.

A thousand years ago, she destroyed our royal family's immortality ritual.

Tonight, I'm taking back everything she cost us with interest.

Boss. About what happened at the hot spring.

I swear I didn't mean it. It was just so hot in there I got lightheaded.

I know.

Boss, I'm in great shape. I can run five kilometers without even getting winded.

Boss! Look out!

Don't scare me like this!

No! No! How did this happen?

Stop bleeding, please! Just stop!

Sola, open your eyes!

Look at me!

Sola, you're supposed to be invincible!

Please, wake up!

Thea, I'm okay.

You're hurt this badly! How can you be okay?

Thea, don't be afraid. I know blood makes you faint.

Right. I'm terrified of blood.

I faint at the sight of it.

My lady, are you hurt? I'm fine.

Get us to the nearest private hospital. Now.

Thea, you're the only person in this world I want close to me.

In this life and the one before, you're the only one I've ever wanted close.

Stay back! Are you human or some kind of ghost?

You're afraid of me?

Of course.

Anyone would be afraid of someone like me.

You tricked me.

Oh, come on!

My gorgeous boss has superpowers! That's unbelievably cool!

Who'd be scared of that?

Be honest, boss.

Are you some kind of vampire?

Then could you bite me on the neck and make me immortal too? I'm a very picky

eater. I don't bite just anyone.

Seriously though, you were hurt so badly and then you healed in seconds.

How long have you been alive?

Do you really not have any other magic or superpowers?

Superpowers? I can't fly.

The only power I have is that I can't die.

I just keep on living.

No wonder.

I saw the wound on your back disappear.

I thought I was so scared I was seeing things.

Then, you've lived through all of human history?

Not quite.

I was a knight in the Middle Ages.

When you live this long, you have to keep changing your name and identity.

All those centuries.

You must have been so lonely.

How did you bear it?

Immortality was a curse I couldn't escape until you came into my life over

a century ago.

Selide, the person you were then, made life feel worth living for the first

time.

But you chose to die so you couldn't be used against me.

Holding your body, I swore I'd find you again.

And now I have.

At first, I was terrified.

I thought once you knew I was an immortal monster, you'd fear me and

leave me for good. I'm not afraid!

Immortal monster?

You're the fool who threw yourself in front of me, the one who's protected me

all along.

Selene couldn't stay with you to the end, but this time I'll protect you.

I'll never leave you alone again.

Boss, it's the weekend. Did you really call me over just to wrestle?

This isn't wrestling.

It's self-defense.

Thea, I won't let the tragedy from your previous life happen again.

If someone tries to choke you from behind, first rule, don't panic.

How am I supposed to get any leverage when you're this close?

Drive your elbow down, shift your weight back, and strike my ribs hard.

Hey boss, back in the old days, did you always teach people with that stern

face?

Were all medieval knights as uptight as you?

Medieval training was a thousand times harsher.

Swords were heavy, and any soldier who slacked off would be lashed with a

barbed whip.

What about you?

Were you the best fighter?

Of course.

I was the only female captain of the Royal Guard.

Wow. That's my boss.

So badass.

Thea, stop trying to get out of it. We're finishing your self-defense

training. I won't let anything happen to you.

The Caroline family.

I'll make all of you pay!

The Caroline family's disgraced adopted daughter.

Want revenge?

Who are you? What do you want? I'm the man who can help you take it all back.

What is it?

A drug that can bring the immortal down.

Get her to drink it, and she'll go blind again.

Find a way to make Sola drink it.

Once it's done, you can do whatever you want with Thea and the Caroline family.

Boss, can we skip training today?

My back is killing me.

Sure.

I had this prepared for you.

It's everything you need to know about running the Caroline Group.

I've had the Clark Group wape the entire debt your adoptive father left behind.

And you can choose a few pieces from my private museum to take with you.

Boss, are you okay?

Am I dreaming?

What's so special about today?

It's the day you leave.

Leave? What do you mean?

I complained about training once, and now you're throwing me out over it?

Sign this NDA.

Once you do, we're even.

Pack your things and leave today.

I'm not signing it, and I'm not leaving.

I've been perfectly fine here. Why should I leave?

Listen to me, Sola.

I'm not going anywhere.

You know my secret now.

An ordinary person can't stay here.

What?

If you didn't want me to know, then why did you save me?

It's not like I can die.

I just figured I'd save a stray. You're lying.

You're hiding something from me.

I'm telling you, Sola, I'm not going anywhere.

Klylan, bring your people to the estate and take your daughter home.

Miss Caroline, please cooperate.

It's time to go.

Let go of me!

Sola!

I'm not leaving until you tell me what's really going on! Sola!

Are you a coward?

Come out and talk to me!

Don't you know how many couples in stories waste their whole lives apart

just because neither of them says how they feel?

Sola!

Zea, come home with us.

What did you find out about the crash?

My lady, you were right.

That crash was no accident.

We still haven't identified the attacker.

But the metal splard that pierced you, the one with your blood on it,

disappeared from the crash site.

In chaos.

They went to all that trouble to ambush us on the mountain road?

But they weren't trying to kill me.

My blood on that medal was their real target.

Only one bloodline knows my secret.

And has obsessed over it for over a thousand years.

The descendants of that mad, brutal tyrant.

My lady, then why send Miss Caroline away?

I've been drugged.

I'm about to lose my sight.

The tyrant's descendants have my blood.

So they must have found a way to fight me.

I may not be able to protect her this time.

Selene already died for me once. I won't let that happen again.

Effective today, every security and intelligence resource in the Caroline

Group answers directly to me.

Miss Carolyn, we've traced what happened at the private party a few days ago.

It was Eve.

She paid a server at the party to drug Mrs. Sola's drink.

Miss Sola was taken to the hospital afterward, but the Clark family has kept

her condition confidential.

We haven't been able to learn more.

Eve, how dare you go after Sola?

Use every connection the Caroline family has. Search the entire city for Eve.

Miss Caroline, the moment we got the lead, we searched every property and

contact tied to Eve.

There's no trace of her.

Sola? Are you alright?

Andre, send someone over.

My lady, you really can't see?

Yes.

My lady?

Your caregiver is here.

Hello, ma'am.

I'll be taking care of you from now on.

Andre, please tell me the truth.

Miss Caroline, the Clark family has served Lady Sola for generations.

I've never seen her care this much about anyone, much less risk herself for them.

That's why you have to tell me.

What's wrong with her?

Please take good care of Lady Sola.

Would you like some water, ma'am?

I'll pour you a glass.

Here's your water, ma'am.

You're awake, ma'am! I made breakfast.

Careful. You didn't make coffee?

Oh, I forgot.

Here, eat this first.

These mashed potatoes.

The seasoning smells familiar.

What are you talking about? They're just regular mashed potatoes.

If you like them, ma'am, I'll make them for you every day.

The seasoning is too strong.

They're not very good.

But I suppose I can choke them down.

You... What?

Ma'am, who's the girl in this picture? She must be very important to you.

Ma'am, Andre keeps mentioning someone named Thea. Who exactly is she to you?

She's my only friend.

The most important person in my life.

Your only friend?

Then why isn't she here taking care of you?

What are you smiling at?

Nothing. I haven't been sleeping well.

You need to be on call at all times.

On call all the time? When am I supposed to sleep?

If you don't like it, you can leave.

Fine. I'll be on call whenever you need me.

Why are you here?

Ma'am, you said I had to be on call.

If you're taking a nap, I need to stay right beside you.

Get out.

I'm not going anywhere.

Who gave you permission to touch anything in that room?

Why? Who used to live in that room? You seem awfully protective of it.

I just think that bear is ugly.

Hey! You're blind!

How can you judge what's cute? My bear is adorable!

So you finally admit it.

I knew it was you, Thea.

Oh, come on.

It's only temporary.

Why would you send me away now?

Let me stay. I can take care of you.

It's dangerous around me right now.

I'm afraid I won't be able to protect you.

I don't need you to protect me.

I can protect myself.

I can't risk losing you again.

Losing me?

When have you ever lost me? The crash.

You really thought it was just an accident?

You mean someone staged the crash to hurt you?

Immortality.

It's a fantasy countless people would kill for.

That's why being near me is dangerous.

Didn't you say you wanted your favorite bacon, mashed potatoes, all kinds of

good food, and a trip around the world?

What I eat or where I go doesn't matter.

What matters is who I'm with.

Nothing tastes good when you're not beside me.

Go home.

You're still sending me away?

Go home, pack your things, and move in with me.

If you never leave my side, then I can keep you safe.

Okay.

Mr. Rocco, Sola's blood has been processed into a serum.

Shall I administrate it now?

Do it.

The serum is extremely potent.

It could react violently with the ancient cells lying dormant in Mr.

Drake's body.

Sola, once Drake awakens, you're as good as dead.

Welcome back, my lord.

It's time Sola paid for the blade she put through my eye over a century ago.

And the secret of her immortality will be mine.

It will be mine!

Here's your water.

And here's your phone.

I'm going home to pack. I'll be right back.

Be good and wait for me here, okay?

Okay.

Miss Caroline.

I've come to ask for your hand in marriage.

Hold on. Have we ever even met?

I saw you at your welcome home gala, Miss Caroline.

It was love at first sight.

You were unforgettable that night, Miss Caroline.

If Thea chooses to marry, the Clark Group will establish a $5 billion trust

for her.

Show me proof of assets worth the same amount, and I'll consent.

My family may have little else, but we do have some ancient estates and

holdings. I can produce that amount at any time.

Does that mean you'll marry me, Mrs. Caroline?

Like hell I do!

I'm inheriting every asset the Caroline family owns. Why would I need to marry

anyone? So no, I'm not marrying you.

Take your flowers and get out.

Miss Caroline, you'll change your mind soon enough.

What are you doing at the estate?

I'm here to discuss your marriage.

Miss Caroline, welcome home.

You followed me home?

Thea, Mr. Drake leads one of the oldest families in the world. The Caroline

family may not need his money, but for him to come in person shows real

sincerity. Dad, Mom, what are you talking about?

Thea, Mr. Drake cares a great deal about you. He even cooked for us himself

today. He's been asking all about you.

Your work, and your friend's sola.

That's right.

Mr. Drake even brought over the deed to an estate, and an asset transfer

agreement as engagement gifts.

Come on, sit down and eat. Come eat. We shouldn't keep our guest waiting.

Miss Caroline, please have a seat.

Drake! I told you I don't want to get married.

Convincing my parents won't change my answer.

Perhaps you should have dinner first.

Thea, look how sincere Mr. Drake is.

His family owns businesses throughout Europe.

Marry him, and I'm sure you'll be very happy.

Miss Caroline, is that enough to prove my sincerity?

Fine! I accept your proposal.

The number you have called is not available.

Please try again later.

What's taking her so long just to pack?

Why the rush?

Afraid you won't live to see tomorrow?

I don't like leaving things to chance.

And your dear friend, Sola.

Isn't she coming?

This isn't a happy marriage. I don't need her here to witness it.

I've already sent her an invitation.

She'll come.

You don't actually want to marry me.

She's your target, isn't she?

Is it the Clark Group's fortune you're after?

Or is it... So you know the secret of her immortality, too?

What do you think I'm after?

I won't let you hurt her.

That's not your decision to make.

Modern weddings are amusing.

I've been around since the Victorian era, and I've never taken part in this

childish charade before.

Modern cremations are fascinating, too.

Want to try one tonight?

Mr. Drake, do you take Miss Caroline as your wife for richer or poorer?

in sickness and in health, for as long as you shall live.

I do.

If anyone here objects to this union, speak now.

I object.

Sola, get out!

You're the one he wants!

I knew you'd come.

Just like over a century ago.

She's still your weakness.

Sola! Let's see how you escape this time. Get her! Take her alive!

Useless! All of you! And you can't beat one blind woman?

Take her down!

Once every century, I lose my sight for three months. What?

I've fought in the dark longer than you've been alive.

Now I have the advantage.

Drop the gun, or I'll strangle her right now!

Don't put it down.

You thousand-year-old monster!

I'll send your woman straight to hell!

Don't touch her.

I'm putting the gun down.

You're coming back with me?

Nice and easy.

Or I'll kill her right now!

Don't move!

Drop the gun!

How dare you bring backup to take me down!

Aren't you afraid I'll put a bullet through her head? Then kill her.

I've lived for over a thousand years.

Do you really think one ordinary woman matters to me?

Of course.

The only person you care about is yourself.

Sola, to you I'm nothing but a disposable tool.

Fine.

Then I'll send her to hell right now!

How?

How could I lose?

You chose death to protect me once.

I won't let that tragedy happen again in this life. Then I promise, if I'm ever

taken hostage again, I won't sacrifice myself.

But you have to promise me something, too.

If this ever happens again, you can't drop your weapon or surrender to those

bastards. Do you hear me?

Andre, bring your people in. Now.

Because I bet your gun was empty.

No magazine?

How are you going to fire?

You did it, Sola.

We did it.

What would you like me to read today?

The one you usually read to me.

You got it.

Gotcha. Your sight's back and you were still pretending to be lined.

I'm sorry.

I only realized it just now.

Thea, don't be mad, okay?

Sola, you have a gray hair!

Really? Your immortality is gone. Does that mean you're going to die?

Hey, don't worry about that yet.

We can live to at least 80.

And I still have over a hundred billion dollars to spend.

Then we'd have to spend a hundred million a month!

Then let's go see the whole world!
