Call Me By Your Heart

Seven years ago, Emma was pregnant with Michael’s child, but Rebecca, who secretly loved him, discovered the truth. To protect her child and Michael’s career, Emma teamed up with an actor to deceive him and left. Rebecca then stole Emma’s child, used him to win Michael’s trust, and married him. Seven years later, Michael, now a rising baseball star, meets Emma, who is working as a cleaner. He coerces her into becoming his assistant, and old feelings resurface. Emma suspects Michael’s son, Jerry, may be her lost child. At a signing event, Michael announces his divorce from Rebecca and confesses his love for Emma. Enraged, Rebecca accuses Emma, but Jerry is soon diagnosed with leukemia. Emma offers to be tested as a bone marrow match, and confirms Jerry is her son. The family is finally reunited.

Story Guide

Episode 1

Something is already pressing on them, and Michael's future hangs on decisions that aren't entirely his to make. The warmth between them feels real, which makes what comes next hurt more. Keep watching — the good news won't stay good for long.

Episode 2

Rebecca corners Emma and doesn't bother with pleasantries. She tells Emma to get rid of the baby, calling it a weight that will drag Michael down. Her leverage is brutal and specific: her father is about to sign Michael to the all-star team, and if Emma says no, Michael will never get signed anywhere. Then comes the offer — 100k to take and be gone, or watch Michael go down with her. Emma is cornered by money, power, and a woman who has decided she owns Michael's future. What does Emma choose when every option costs her something?

Episode 3

Emma plays a cruel part. She tells Michael she's done with him, that he can never give her the life she wants, and that she deserves better — a performance designed to push him away. Michael protests that he did get signed, that he wanted to surprise her when he proposed with the ring. But Emma has already decided. She says she can't waste any more time on his unfulfilled dreams. The scene lands like a door slamming. She walks away believing she's protecting him, and he's left with nothing but the rejection. Neither of them knows yet how completely Rebecca has been pulling the strings.

Episode 4

Rebecca pays for an act, then presents a baby as Michael's son and demands he marry her. When challenged, she insists the child is his and dares anyone to run a paternity test. Elsewhere, a mother's world collapses — someone is frantically searching for her baby, begging strangers for help, unable to find him. The two threads collide in the worst way: a stolen child, a forged family, and a woman left screaming in a crowd. Rebecca's grip on Michael tightens around a lie, and the real mother has no idea yet how far it reaches.

Episode 5

Years pass. A woman admits that if her son hadn't gone missing, he would probably be hugging her right now. Then a small boy appears, alone, and she gently asks his name and where his parents are. He says he lost his dad — who is winning the French baseball open and now ranked world number one. The boy points at the screen and says, "That's my dad." Emma watches Michael become a world champion through the eyes of a child who might be hers. The coincidence is too sharp to ignore, and the question lands hard: is this boy Jerry, and is he her son?

Episode 6

The boy says Michael is his dad, and someone tells Emma he looks just like her. She cries, and the child comforts her — "Don't cry, mommy" — a word that cuts deeper than he knows. Meanwhile, Michael is recognized everywhere as the world-famous baseball player, and Jerry has run off again. Rebecca pushes Michael to stop thinking about Emma and remember what she did to him. Then the reason for a long-overdue call becomes clear: it's about finding his son. Rebecca's hold on the story is starting to crack, and Emma is closer to the truth than anyone realizes.

Episode 7

Emma is late for work on the day Michael is coming to sign a contract, and she has to leave Jerry behind. She parks him in the stadium radio room to wait for his dad — then he vanishes again. A search scrambles, and an announcement calls Michael's family to the radio room because a child is waiting there. When Rebecca finds Jerry, she grabs him roughly, and Emma steps in, telling her not to treat him like that. Rebecca snaps that he's her son and it's none of Emma's business. Emma doesn't yet know how wrong that is — but she's about to find out.
