Hong Beom-ja, Hong Man-dae's daughter, discovers Seul-hee wearing her mother's ring. This is a huge clue that Seul-hee might not be who she says she is.

Beom-ja confronts her father but blinded by trust in Seul-hee, he pushes her away for the first time ever. Meanwhile, Hong Soo-cheol tries to impress his family with a big birthday surprise, but it turns into a disaster.

Alone with Seul-hee, Hong Man-dae gets a call from Hyun-woo revealing the truth about her and Eun-seong. Shocked and heartbroken, Hong Man-dae starts to feel sick.

But it's no coincidence, that Seul-hee has poisoned one of the game pieces they were playing with. Before Hong Man-dae falls unconscious, Seul-hee tells him to stay in a coma for a few months so she can take control.

At the hospital, the family is shocked to learn that Seul-hee has a power of attorney, meaning she can make decisions for Chairman Hong Man-dae. 

Worse, with Eun-seong's investment, Seul-hee now controls most of the company's shares, pushing the Hong family out.

Back home, Hyun-Woo's father closes his shop because his in-laws (Hae-in's family) are losing everything. But to everyone's surprise, Hyun-woo returns home.

With the Hong family now facing financial hardship, they must relocate to live with Hyun-woo. This significant change is sure to bring both amusing and dramatic moments, especially considering wealthy individuals suddenly living with their in-laws.

Despite the challenging circumstances, Hyun-woo remains determined. He'll explore every avenue to rescue his family and regain control of their company.
