Miss Monte-Cristo (Miss Montecristo / Miseu Montekeuliseuto / 미스 몬테크리스토)

Hello, Ha Ra.

Sun Hyuk.

I'm pregnant.

It's our baby.

This is our baby.

Why don't you say anything?

Are you sure?

Yes.

I took a home pregnancy test.

I'm sure of it.

I'm going to see the doctor now.

I haven't eaten well in a few days,

so I feel weak and dizzy.

You'll come with me to see if our baby is okay, right?

It will be the first moment the doctor announces it's our baby.

The baby will be so upset if its father isn't present.

So...

don't leave, Sun Hyuk.

He won't leave when we have a baby.

Sun Hyuk wouldn't turn his face away from his baby.

Ms. Oh, come in.

I took a blood test in case the womb doesn't show up in the sonogram.

They said I'm pregnant.

You should be careful since you're in the early stage.

Why did you skip meals?

You didn't even want to see me.

Mom tried to separate us by any means.

I was so upset I wanted to die.

If we go our separate ways,

I won't have a reason to live.

I should hold onto him, so he won't ever think of leaving.

Sun Hyuk,

it's quite perplexing, right?

It is to me too.

But...

maybe it's fate.

I think...

Eun Jo sent us this baby.

It must be a gift from Eun Jo...

to give us a reason to live.

Sun Hyuk,

let's get married...

and raise this baby together, please?

As long as you're determined,

I'm not afraid of my parents being opposed to our marriage.

I will make sure to convince my parents.

Okay?

You're home, Vice President Geum.

Yes.

Where's Ha Ra? How is she doing?

She rushed outside.

Where did she go?

Has she eaten today?

No. She was upset about something, so she flipped the whole table.

She was on a hunger strike, so her stomach was empty.

She even ended up retching.

She was retching?

What is this?

This isn't true, right?

You made it up to keep Sun Hyuk here, right?

It is true.

They gave me a Mother's Notebook.

I just got back from the clinic with Sun Hyuk.

What? Sun Hyuk is leaving Korea today.

He went to the clinic with you?

Yes. I stopped him from going.

I will raise this baby with him.

Even if you're against it, there's no point.

Dad and grandma won't be against it.

You got pregnant for Dad's money, but grandma accepted you.

What did you say?

That's not it.

She wouldn't want a single mom in Jewang Group.

She will make a fuss saying I'm a disgrace.

She can't help but accept me marrying Sun Hyuk.

So don't sweat it, Mom.

I will not give up on this marriage no matter what happens.

You're helpless!

Take the aspirin.

You have a headache.

This pill won't cure it.

The house feels so empty without my son.

How can this tiny house feel empty?

I feel like he can enter that door any minute.

Look. Now, I'm even seeing things.

What happened, Sun Hyuk? You didn't get on the plane?

What?

Is that really you, Sun Hyuk?

Hey, Sun Hyuk!

It's way past your flight schedule.

Ha Ra is pregnant.

What? What are you talking about?

Pregnant? With your baby?

Well,

what is he talking about?

How lucky we are!

They're stars.

Yes.

I wanted to draw stars lately.

You don't recall anything?

But...

I'm sad every time I draw them.

Even with these many stars, it feels empty.

Also,

this person keeps popping into my head.

Those memories must be connected.

I might know why I draw stars...

once I remember who he is.

It's frustrating.

Sun Hyuk, let's get married...

and raise this baby together.

As long as you're determined,

I'm not afraid of my parents being opposed to our marriage.

Eun Hwa is not feeling well, so take good care of her.

- Oh, dear. - Okay. Don't worry.

Are you going to work?

Yes, Mom.

I'll see you later.

Who is it this early?

Who is it?

This is the mother of Assistant Manager Cha.

It's Assistant Manager Cha's mother.

Open it.

She must have a reason to come this early in the morning.

Oh, my. Everyone's home.

It's been a while. I'm not sure if you remember me.

We met at Na Yeon's funeral as well.

I went to the same school as Eun Hwa.

I see.

By the way, what brings you here?

Come sit here.

You come sit too.

Get us some tea, Ms. Park.

Yes, President Han.

Well, I came over early because it's an important issue.

When are you going to marry Ha Ra and Sun Hyuk?

Well, just as well.

Before more people learn it,

I think it'd be better to set a date for the wedding as soon as possible.

No way. Your son is in the States right now.

We can't decide such a thing just by ourselves.

I heard Sun Hyuk doesn't have any feelings for my Ha Ra.

What are you saying?

Actually, the one who tries to send him to the States...

is that bright daughter-in-law of Mrs. Han.

So you really haven't heard about it.

My Sun Hyuk isn't in the States.

As Ha Ra got pregnant, he came back.

President Oh, what on earth is going on?

My Ha Ra is pregnant?

Yes, she is.

That's how Sun Hyuk got off the plane before it departed.

Gosh, you...

How dare you come here?

Mother, I can...

Is what she said true?

You were aware of this?

- Goodness. - Are you okay?

I'm fine.

I got what you said. I want you to leave.

Sure.

You must be very startled.

I'll get going then.

Let me know how we should prepare for their wedding...

through Eun Hwa, please.

Ms. Park, tell Ha Ra that I want her in my room.

Yes, ma'am.

Why have you been staying quiet when you knew everything?

What's your secret design keeping it from us?

- I was... - Tell us. What was on your mind?

I only learned it yesterday.

I was also taken aback and tried to figure out...

how I should take care of the baby as it was conceived by a mistake.

Oh, my. Take care?

Take care of what?

Were you planning to abort the baby secretly from us?

Was that really your plan?

What else can we do?

We can't just let their lives get messed up...

because of an unwanted pregnancy.

Goodness. How in the world can you say that?

How could you ever think of such a dreadful thing?

I need you to make yourself clear.

You just aren't satisfied with Sun Hyuk as Ha Ra's husband.

I guess now you know how I feel.

When you came to marry Byung Gook with Ha Ra inside you,

do you know how hopeless I felt?

Mom, please don't bring that up again.

She's so ill-cultivated that she thinks such things.

Still, I didn't ask you to abort Ha Ra.

How dare you think of killing a precious life?

You told me to leave after I give birth to Ha Ra!

How dare you...

Did you ask for me?

If we leave it to your mother, things will only get worse.

Leave us alone!

Ha Ra, come sit down.

Are you on the same page with your mom?

Do you want to abort the baby?

No.
