00:00:00Doctor, is my mom going to be okay?
00:00:17I'm sorry, Grace.
00:00:18She has a brain hemorrhage.
00:00:21With immediate surgery, there is a chance,
00:00:24but it'll cost $500,000.
00:00:30$500,000.
00:00:31I don't have that kind of money, but Mom needs me.
00:00:34I'll find a way to get the money.
00:00:36Please, just save my mom.
00:00:38I can do that.
00:00:41Grace Miller.
00:00:43Oh, Rose.
00:00:44Well, thank God you two are here.
00:00:46Mom was working at the orphanage when she fainted,
00:00:48and it's going to cost $500,000.
00:00:50$500,000?
00:00:52And where are we supposed to get that?
00:00:56Call off the surgery, Doc.
00:00:57There's no way we're paying for that.
00:00:59Rose, what are you saying?
00:01:01She's our mom.
00:01:02She adopted us.
00:01:03You can't just enforce us to grow up dirt poor.
00:01:06She's a low-life worker.
00:01:07She doesn't deserve to be a mom.
00:01:08If it wasn't for her, we could have been adopted by someone rich.
00:01:11You guys hear yourself.
00:01:13She took us in when we had nothing.
00:01:15She gave us a home.
00:01:16She made sure that we were never hungry,
00:01:18and you're just mad at her because she's not rich.
00:01:21Speaking of money, today's mom's payday.
00:01:24This is mom's.
00:01:26Don't you dare touch it.
00:01:29Don't you dare touch it.
00:01:31No.
00:01:32No.
00:01:33No.
00:01:34No.
00:01:34No.
00:01:35No.
00:01:36No.
00:01:37No.
00:01:38No, Mom worked hard for that.
00:01:39Should be enough for a new iPhone, though.
00:01:40Mom needs that money for her surgery.
00:01:41You can't just take it.
00:01:42Sure we can.
00:01:43That old hag's about to die.
00:01:44Her money's ours now.
00:01:45You want money?
00:01:46Pick it up.
00:01:47No.
00:01:48No.
00:01:49No, Mom worked hard for that.
00:01:50Should be enough for a new iPhone, though.
00:01:52Mom needs that money for her surgery.
00:01:53You can't just take it.
00:01:54Sure we can.
00:01:55That old hag's about to die.
00:01:56Her money's ours now.
00:01:57You want money?
00:01:58Pick it up.
00:02:13Consider this our donation to mom's surgery or funeral.
00:02:32I'll save you, Mom.
00:02:39I can sell blood for money.
00:02:41This is the only way I might be able to save Mom.
00:03:11Go ahead and take a seat, guys.
00:03:18Look, I've gathered you all here today for a very important
00:03:23announcement.
00:03:2415 years ago, my mother, Mary Miller, disappeared to live a
00:03:28quiet life in a small town.
00:03:30But now, she is returning to take her rightful place as the CEO
00:03:35of the Phoenix Group, ladies and gentlemen.
00:03:36The CEO has finally returned.
00:03:39Miss Miller raised her son alone to build Phoenix Group.
00:03:42Now, after 15 years, she's coming back.
00:03:45Even out of the public eye, she remains a legend.
00:03:48No one can match what she built.
00:03:50See, although my mother's been living in seclusion,
00:03:53we've remained in contact over the years.
00:03:55And she's adopted three children, who I believe will be joining
00:03:58our company very soon.
00:04:01Sir, we can't find your mother.
00:04:03She isn't answering our calls.
00:04:05What?
00:04:06My mother is missing?
00:04:10I want to sell my blood.
00:04:12Please.
00:04:13I have an extremely rare blood type, type AB negative.
00:04:17You need it, and I need money for my mother's surgery.
00:04:20Please.
00:04:42We are at 400.
00:04:43I have to stop now, or you'll pass out.
00:04:45No, no, don't stop.
00:04:46I can do it.
00:04:47I just keep, I just keep, keep going.
00:04:52Miss?
00:04:53Miss?
00:04:54Miss?
00:04:55Miss?
00:04:56Miss?
00:04:57Miss?
00:04:58Miss?
00:05:13Grace, I told you to go home and rest.
00:05:16You just fainted from donating all that blood.
00:05:19I'm fine, doctor.
00:05:21How's my mom?
00:05:22Well, the operation was a success, but Grace,
00:05:25with your mother's condition, we're looking at some very
00:05:28expensive long-term care.
00:05:30Oh, I, I got it, doctor.
00:05:32She's my mom.
00:05:34I won't give up on her.
00:05:35She's very lucky to have you.
00:05:37I'll go work on the list of her medication.
00:05:46You adopted me, mom.
00:05:49You taught me what family was, love is.
00:05:54Don't worry.
00:05:55I'm not going to give up on you.
00:05:57I'm going to make sure you get better.
00:05:59I spent hours, where is Miss Miller?
00:06:11If Miss Miller says she's returning, then she will be coming back.
00:06:14Otherwise, Mr. Miller will find her.
00:06:17When she left 15 years ago, she made all of us.
00:06:20Even Mr. Miller promised never to search for her.
00:06:25Did you reach her?
00:06:26Her phone, it's completely dead.
00:06:28She'd never let that happen.
00:06:29Not on the day that she's supposed to return.
00:06:33Something's not right.
00:06:36Do whatever it takes.
00:06:37Flip this city upside down.
00:06:39I don't care, but we're going to find my mother.
00:06:41One day at work here, we'll cover three days of mom's medication.
00:07:00Next.
00:07:01Sir, I'm here to work.
00:07:04Please, if there's any opportunity that you have, I would gladly take it.
00:07:07Come on, Grace.
00:07:09Everyone knows you passed out yesterday at the hospital.
00:07:11I can't have you dying on my sight.
00:07:13I'll lose my damn job.
00:07:14But no, please, please, I'm begging you.
00:07:16Please, I really need the money.
00:07:18My mom will die without it.
00:07:20But with treatment, I mean, there's a chance that she may wake up.
00:07:25But if I give up, it's over for her.
00:07:27Please.
00:07:29If I catch you slacking off one time,
00:07:32I won't pay you a single penny.
00:07:37Thank you so much.
00:07:38You can trust me.
00:07:39I am a hard worker.
00:07:41Next.
00:07:45Don't worry, Mom.
00:07:46I'll make enough money, and you'll get better.
00:07:48All right, time for lunch.
00:07:53Get back to work as soon as you're finished.
00:07:56Grace.
00:07:57Stop.
00:07:58Lucy.
00:07:59What's wrong?
00:08:00You have to get home right now, Grace.
00:08:01Your sis and brother are selling your mom's house.
00:08:04This is Lee and Naomi.
00:08:05You're gonna get home for a while.
00:08:07What's wrong?
00:08:08I don't know.
00:08:09I don't know.
00:08:10I don't know.
00:08:11You're a good one.
00:08:13Sue.
00:08:14Time for lunch.
00:08:15Get back to work as soon as you're finished.
00:08:17Grace.
00:08:18Lucy.
00:08:19What's wrong?
00:08:20You have to get home right now, Grace.
00:08:21Your sis and brother are selling your mom's house.
00:08:22And...
00:08:24I don't know.
00:08:25It's time for lunch.
00:08:26We've turned this whole house upside down.
00:08:32I can't believe the old hag doesn't even have any savings.
00:08:34Whatever, just forget it.
00:08:35Let's get down to business.
00:08:36Where's the inheritance letter?
00:08:38You see this, Mom?
00:08:40You ruined our life at a better chance with a rich family.
00:08:45Now, with just one little stamp here, you'll give us what we deserve.
00:08:48As if this old hag can hear you.
00:08:50Just get it over with already.
00:08:51What are you doing?
00:09:00Mom, Mom, are you okay?
00:09:06You're trying to steal Mom's house?
00:09:09You can't do that. Mom worked hard for it.
00:09:11Fine. If she doesn't want us to sell it, then we won't.
00:09:15Go on. Say it. Say it.
00:09:18Hey, you old hag. Is anyone there?
00:09:20Hello? Can you speak up? Speak up!
00:09:23Get your filthy hands off of her.
00:09:26Be honest. You don't actually give a shit about Mom.
00:09:29You're just putting on a little show, hoping she'll magically wake up and give you everything.
00:09:33That's not true.
00:09:35Aw, poor little Grace, trying so hard and your mommy can't even see.
00:09:41If you don't want to take care of Mom, that's fine. I'll do it myself.
00:09:45But I'm not going to let you take anything away from her.
00:09:47Try and stop us.
00:09:48Mom? Mom? Your finger's moving.
00:10:02Would you look at that? She's actually losing it.
00:10:05I saw it. Her finger's moving. She's trying to tell us something.
00:10:10Mom's brain is mush. The only thing moving in her head are the worms eating the rest of it out.
00:10:16You stupid bitch. I'm tired of repeating myself. Mom is dying. Dead people don't need a house.
00:10:38You know, William and I just want the best for you, little sis.
00:10:44Say, you and the mayor's son are the same age, right? Mayor's daughter-in-law sounds awfully nice.
00:10:51What? The mayor's daughter-in-law?
00:10:55After you and the mayor's son tie the knot, we'll send...
00:10:59That to a nursing home far, far away.
00:11:06She takes up too much space here.
00:11:08So there's the bride for my son.
00:11:19Well, son, she's the girl you said you liked, right?
00:11:22A real virgin.
00:11:24Just like me.
00:11:25All the other girls, they always run away.
00:11:28But not you.
00:11:30You'll be my first.
00:11:32Time to make you mine.
00:11:33No, no, don't touch me!
00:11:45No, no, don't touch me!
00:11:48You can't say no to me!
00:11:50My dad owns this town. Nobody says no to me.
00:11:53Look at you, acting so high and mighty.
00:11:56You're still selling your blood, aren't you?
00:11:58Just for a few pennies.
00:11:59We offer you a way out of poverty, and this is the way you repay us.
00:12:05Do you know how rich and powerful the mayor is?
00:12:09Mom's gonna die because you're too proud to spread your legs for the mayor's son.
00:12:13I'm not going to marry him.
00:12:16Don't you see, Grace?
00:12:18William and I are doing this for you and Mom.
00:12:21You should be grateful.
00:12:22Half a million, and she's all yours tonight.
00:12:25Steep price for an orphan.
00:12:27I don't care, Dad!
00:12:28You promised me I can have her, and I want her.
00:12:31Give them what they want.
00:12:33If you want a grandson or not, she can work for us.
00:12:35Nice to meet you.
00:12:36Oh!
00:12:41Glad you're doing business with you, sir.
00:12:44My sister's all yours.
00:12:48No, no, no!
00:12:49No, Mom!
00:12:50Mom, please!
00:12:51Don't take me, Mom!
00:12:53Mom!
00:12:58No one sells my daughter.
00:13:24Get away from my daughter!
00:13:26Thank God you're awake!
00:13:34Don't scare us like that again, okay?
00:13:37I didn't know what to do!
00:13:39Yeah, Mom.
00:13:40We're so happy to have you back.
00:13:42It looks like you know exactly what you're doing.
00:13:45Selling the house.
00:13:50Huh?
00:13:51No, Mom!
00:13:52You have the wrong idea!
00:13:54We were selling the house to help pay for your treatment!
00:13:57Treatment?
00:13:58You didn't even want to pay for Mom's surgery!
00:14:00Don't listen to Grace's lies, Mom!
00:14:02William and I have been working day and night to pay for your surgery!
00:14:06No, that's not true!
00:14:07I was selling my blood to pay back...
00:14:10Grace, I know you seduced the mayor's son and are about to marry into a powerful family,
00:14:14but that doesn't mean you can lie to Mom's face!
00:14:16Grace was trying to marry into the mayor's family so she didn't have to take care of you!
00:14:20Rose and I had no choice but to sell the house.
00:14:22Enough!
00:14:23Just because I had my eyes closed doesn't mean that I didn't hear everything you said!
00:14:31And not only were you trying to just sell the house, but you were trying to sell your sister, Grace, as well!
00:14:39Mom, I'm so glad you're awake.
00:14:42I didn't know what else to do.
00:14:44Oh, my sweet daughter.
00:14:47I heard everything.
00:14:49Everything you did to keep me safe.
00:14:50Your mother will make these ingrits pay for what they did to you.
00:15:00This...
00:15:01This is just a silly house.
00:15:04And I would have given it to you without a second thought.
00:15:08But now, after the stunt that you two pulled,
00:15:12you won't get anything.
00:15:20Well, William and I would have considered looking after you if you were even moderately wealthy.
00:15:28But you're just poor.
00:15:30Do you know how goddamn embarrassing it is to call your mother?
00:15:36Embarrassing?
00:15:37When we were orphans, nobody wanted us.
00:15:40Mom gave us a home.
00:15:42She saved us.
00:15:43I didn't choose the shitty life she offered us.
00:15:49Poor people shouldn't drag others into their suffering.
00:15:52That's not fair.
00:15:54Take it back.
00:15:57You see this, you old hag?
00:16:00We already have your signature and fingerprint on the inheritance letter.
00:16:04It's too late to stop us now.
00:16:06You're not getting anything from me.
00:16:09Not a single cent.
00:16:13Grace, do you have my phone?
00:16:15Oh, Grace, this is your mom's phone.
00:16:20You can keep it for now.
00:16:21Doctor, this phone is really nice.
00:16:23Are you sure it belongs to my mom?
00:16:25We took it from her pocket right before the surgery.
00:16:40Miss Miller!
00:16:40Alexander, it's me.
00:16:52My mother was in danger.
00:16:53Thanks to her adopted daughter, Grace, she's safe in a small town.
00:16:57I'm heading over there to bring her back home.
00:16:59Someone who dares to threaten Miss Miller must be insane!
00:17:02Let us come with you, sir.
00:17:03We should all be there to welcome her back.
00:17:05And we'll show those who crossed her who's boss!
00:17:10Sir, I've sent John Smith to check on your mother.
00:17:14Make sure he keeps her safe until I get there.
00:17:16These people are going to regret it for crossing her.
00:17:18Yes, sir.
00:17:19Come in, mother.
00:17:20Wait, she has another son?
00:17:22No idea who the guy is.
00:17:24Wonder where she found this guy.
00:17:26Probably fished him out of a dumpster.
00:17:27Bet he's just as pathetic as she is.
00:17:29Another worthless charity case.
00:17:32Stop it!
00:17:33That's your brother you're talking about!
00:17:36Relax, Grace.
00:17:37Soon they'll be on their knees, begging for forgiveness.
00:17:42Who do you think you are, you old hag?
00:17:44Some kind of superhero?
00:17:45The mayor is related to Mr. Smith.
00:17:48The man who transformed the Sterling Corp into the Phoenix Group's biggest subsidiary.
00:17:53He can make any person disappear.
00:17:56And guess what?
00:17:57They just called them about Gregory's wedding.
00:18:00He should be here at any moment.
00:18:01Mr. Smith?
00:18:03You mean John?
00:18:04Speaking as if she knows him personally.
00:18:07The man controls billions.
00:18:09The nerve on this woman.
00:18:11Let me explain something to you.
00:18:13Phoenix Group isn't just some company.
00:18:15They own everything.
00:18:18They're untouchable gods among men.
00:18:22She probably thinks Phoenix Group is just some bird-watching club.
00:18:26Mark my words.
00:18:28You'll all be on your knees, begging for mercy.
00:18:31And when John Smith gets here, he's going to be trembling in his boots.
00:18:37Mr. Smith has important business to attend to.
00:18:52Starting now, all roads headed to the town are closed off.
00:18:56I heard Mr. Smith has barely been seen in public ever since Ms. Miller went into hiding.
00:19:00Wow.
00:19:00If Mr. Smith is going out like this, he must be doing business with a really important person.
00:19:05I never thought I'd ever meet Ms. Miller in person.
00:19:08This is a once-in-a-lifetime chance.
00:19:11She's the pride of the city.
00:19:13But, sir, we don't even have a photo of her.
00:19:15We don't know what she looks like.
00:19:16I have other matters to attend to in that town anyway.
00:19:19Let's move out.
00:19:20We'll grab the photo later.
00:19:24Wait, you think Mr. Smith will kneel before someone like you?
00:19:29Oh, don't make me laugh.
00:19:32Oh, she's completely delusional.
00:19:34Oh, she's completely delusional.
00:19:35Enough.
00:19:37I won't stand here and let you insult my mother like this.
00:19:41Know your place and shut up, you stupid bitch.
00:19:52Lay a hand on my daughter one more time, and I'll make sure you don't use that hand again.
00:19:57What's wrong?
00:19:59Our money not good enough for you?
00:20:02Fine.
00:20:03Name your price.
00:20:04Everything has one.
00:20:06Just like you.
00:20:08Oh, how amusing.
00:20:12You think that you can buy me off?
00:20:16I would love to see you try.
00:20:18Hmm.
00:20:19Word is, Miss Miller has an adoptive daughter, Grace, that's been taking care of her.
00:20:26Without her, we might not see Miss Miller again.
00:20:29This Grace Miller must be someone special.
00:20:31There aren't a lot of daughters like her out there.
00:20:34It's me.
00:20:36Make sure to arrange an exceptional gift for Miss Miller.
00:20:39And prepare something special for Grace Miller.
00:20:42Only the best for the girl that saved Miss Miller.
00:20:46Sir, John Smith should be arriving to town any moment now.
00:20:50The signal there is terrible.
00:20:52I just sent him a photo of Miss Miller.
00:20:53He should be receiving it shortly.
00:20:55Look, my mother likes to keep low profile.
00:20:57So I want you to tell our people to shut down the entire neighborhood, okay?
00:21:00I don't want anyone seeing my mother.
00:21:02Yes, sir.
00:21:02You think that you can buy me?
00:21:06Well, just look at you.
00:21:08Wearing those rags, living in this filthy place.
00:21:11And you have the nerve to reject my son.
00:21:14People like you should be on your knees, kissing our feet.
00:21:19Thanking us for the chance at a better life.
00:21:23Your son is a worthless parasite that vultures would refuse to eat.
00:21:32How dare you speak that way about my son?
00:21:49I was abandoned as a child.
00:21:52When I was 15 years old, my mom took me in and gave me a home.
00:21:56You may just see her as another nobody.
00:21:59Working lowly jobs with little money.
00:22:02But to me, she's the greatest mom in the world.
00:22:07She's my everything.
00:22:08And I'm not just going to stand here and let you humiliate her.
00:22:12Boo-hoo.
00:22:13I'm in tears.
00:22:14Who cares if we insult this old hag?
00:22:17My husband is the mayor.
00:22:19And we can do anything we want, as a matter of fact.
00:22:23My son can take you right here.
00:22:25And right now, if he wants.
00:22:26I'm going to teach my wife some manners.
00:22:31No, no, no.
00:22:32Take that, please.
00:22:34You will all write this.
00:22:37No, take it, I'm clean.
00:22:39Holy shit.
00:22:48Is that John Smith?
00:22:50The mayor's got some family problems from what I hear.
00:22:53And he's probably just here to help them out.
00:22:55What the hell?
00:23:01No, no, no.
00:23:01Go where?
00:23:02I could assure you the consequences for spreading unverified rumors in front of Mr. Smith are serious.
00:23:11Mr. Smith, please let us go.
00:23:13Please, sir, let us go.
00:23:13We had nothing to do with this.
00:23:15You should be talking to that family over there who rejected the mayor's son.
00:23:18You're lying.
00:23:22Who dare reject Gregory Warren?
00:23:24Don't they know he's related to Mr. Smith?
00:23:25We're not lying, sir.
00:23:27You can see for yourself.
00:23:29Our house is at the end of this road.
00:23:30All right.
00:23:32Looks like I'll have to take care of this myself.
00:23:35Don't let go of me.
00:23:36Let's go.
00:23:37Stop.
00:23:40Hit her again, mother.
00:23:46Mother, we offer you everything, and you choose to stay in this filth?
00:23:50Fine.
00:23:51Stay here and rot.
00:23:53My mother's love means everything to me.
00:23:56I'd rather stay in poverty by her side than live in a cage without her.
00:24:01Too bad that's not your decision to make.
00:24:06Too bad that's not your decision to make.
00:24:09Mr. Smith?
00:24:10He actually came.
00:24:11Only the famous John Smith could arrive in such style.
00:24:14Mr. Smith.
00:24:16Thank you for coming.
00:24:17What's going on here?
00:24:18You're related to someone like me.
00:24:20Finding your son a wife should be the easiest thing in the world.
00:24:22It's these arrogant fools, sir.
00:24:24They have no idea the privilege they're throwing away.
00:24:28And Mr. Smith, they even had the audacity to threaten you.
00:24:32Said you would tremble before him.
00:24:33What?
00:24:34Someone dare threaten the John Smith,
00:24:37the head of Phoenix Group's most powerful subsidiary,
00:24:41the man that no one crosses.
00:24:44Yes, it's that woman right over there.
00:24:52Hello, John.
00:24:55Why does her voice sound so familiar?
00:24:59Just now, Phoenix Group CEO Mary Miller,
00:25:02one of the most powerful figures in our city,
00:25:05has relinquished full control of the company to her son.
00:25:10Mary, do you have anything to say?
00:25:12Anything to say at all, Mary, about the transition of power?
00:25:15Ms. Miller.
00:25:16Ms. Miller.
00:25:19Ms. Miller.
00:25:19I owe everything to you.
00:25:22You started Sterling Corps and gave me my position.
00:25:25If you're really planning on leaving Phoenix Group,
00:25:27please, at least, let me drive you home.
00:25:32If you really want to share your gratitude,
00:25:34take good care of Sterling Group.
00:25:36I'm counting on you.
00:25:42How dare you use Mr. Smith's first name,
00:25:44keep our boss's name out of your mouth or else I'll...
00:25:47Wait!
00:25:52You keep our boss's name out of your mouth or else I'll...
00:25:55Wait!
00:25:57You.
00:25:58You know who I am.
00:25:59Mr. Smith, listen to this filth trying to pretend she knows you.
00:26:03Yes, I do know you, John.
00:26:07How dare you address Mr. Smith like that?
00:26:10Trash like you should show respect!
00:26:13Mr. Smith, this is just some old woman
00:26:15who works as a cheap laborer at the orphanage nearby.
00:26:19A day laborer?
00:26:20I must have mistaken her for someone else.
00:26:22What happened to all your threats?
00:26:25Weren't you just saying how Mr. Smith would tremble and fall to his knees?
00:26:28You said that?
00:26:29I did.
00:26:30Who do you think you are, huh?
00:26:33Don't touch my mom.
00:26:36Oh, you want to be brave, too?
00:26:38Huh?
00:26:40Mr. Smith, it's a message from Mr. Miller.
00:26:43It's a photo of Mrs. Miller.
00:26:49It's a photo of Mrs. Miller.
00:26:52You mean Miss Miller?
00:26:53Yeah.
00:26:54She's Phoenix Group's CEO.
00:26:56They say she controls all the city.
00:26:58But she disappeared years ago
00:27:00when she gave control to her son when he turned 18.
00:27:03We could have been living the high life if she had adopted us
00:27:06instead of being stuck with this worthless woman.
00:27:08Mr. Smith, you see, everything's ready for the wedding.
00:27:12If you could just help us convince the bride.
00:27:15Mrs. Miller is here in town somewhere.
00:27:17I have to find and greet her.
00:27:19I can't let this petty situation get in the way.
00:27:21Take her to the church.
00:27:22No, let me go.
00:27:24I won't marry him.
00:27:26I need to stay with my mom.
00:27:27Try to get past me.
00:27:29See how that works.
00:27:35Try to get past me.
00:27:36See how that works out for you.
00:27:38Move aside, ma'am.
00:27:39Mr. Smith is due to welcome back the CEO of Phoenix Group.
00:27:43If you and your daughter get in the way, you'll pay the price.
00:27:49So, this is how you run Sterling Group now?
00:27:53Torment the weak?
00:27:55Throw your weight around?
00:27:57Shut your damn mouth.
00:27:59Stripper.
00:28:00Let her mother watch what happens to people who defy me.
00:28:06You are making your last mistake.
00:28:08You think I'm scared of some empty threats from an old hag in a wheelchair?
00:28:13What are you going to do about it?
00:28:16No, no, no, no.
00:28:18No.
00:28:27Huh.
00:28:38How could I be so foolish?
00:28:47Miss Miller, the CEO of Phoenix Group, is right in front of my eyes.
00:28:52Mr. Smith is about to teach this old woman a lesson that she should never open her mouth.
00:28:58Just watch.
00:28:59Well, that'll teach you to disrespect someone like Mr. Smith.
00:29:02Crawl on the ground and beg for forgiveness, you pathetic old hag.
00:29:05That's right.
00:29:06Go on and grovel before he destroys you.
00:29:10I have no need to apologize.
00:29:13I meant every word that I said.
00:29:15I said that when John Smith gets here, he will tremble and fall to his knees, and that is exactly what will happen.
00:29:24What planet are you even living on?
00:29:27You're not just a beggar.
00:29:28You're a complete lunatic.
00:29:31ediyor is a man who niew fürs geography.
00:29:32He's not just a beggar.
00:29:33He'll attack people.
00:29:34He's enough to
00:29:48actual miserably.
00:29:48He's a one-to-the-pero-opy.
00:29:49The hell is no need to cry out by you.
00:29:50He's a four-to-po Enfin.
00:29:50Holy crap.
00:29:55Can't tell him to die.
00:29:56I don't know.
00:29:57Birthday software.
00:29:59I can't do it without changing his mane.
00:30:00Sir, what's the matter?
00:30:05On your knees.
00:30:06What, sir? She's just some...
00:30:07I said on your knees!
00:30:15Are you all deaf?
00:30:17Get on your knees!
00:30:19Mr. Smith, what's this all about?
00:30:22Are you not feeling well?
00:30:23What did this brain-dead bitch do to him?
00:30:26Get him away before whatever's riding in her head spreads!
00:30:30Mr. Smith, what are you doing?
00:30:34I'm warning you.
00:30:36Do not disrespect this woman.
00:30:39She is.
00:30:41She is.
00:30:42She is nothing but a pathetic waste of space.
00:30:45She can't even stand on her own two feet.
00:30:48Her brain is riding away and she doesn't have a penny to her name.
00:30:51Are you seriously going to defend this old witch?
00:30:55Ah!
00:30:57Ah!
00:30:58Ah!
00:30:59Looks like you remember me now, John.
00:31:01Why don't you tell everyone else who I am?
00:31:03Go ahead.
00:31:05Ah!
00:31:05Ah!
00:31:06Let dress him as Mr. Smith, you disrespectful old hag!
00:31:11Mr. Smith, we never wanted her as her mother.
00:31:16We've already cut ties with this woman.
00:31:18We don't support her behavior at all.
00:31:20Please!
00:31:21Don't punish us for her actions!
00:31:23I understand you're upset, Mr. Smith.
00:31:27Let me remove this worthless woman.
00:31:29Ah!
00:31:30Ah!
00:31:33Leave!
00:31:35All of you!
00:31:37Mr. Smith, why are you protecting her?
00:31:39She's beneath you!
00:31:41Mr. Smith, please!
00:31:43We're family!
00:31:44Family?
00:31:45You're just distant relatives.
00:31:48The only reason I maintain contact with you is because someone told me to never forget where I came from.
00:31:53And that someone was her.
00:31:56She helped me build Sterling Core for nothing.
00:32:06John, return my daughter to me and we'll discuss your actions later.
00:32:11Yes, Miss Miller.
00:32:12Okay.
00:32:14No one will ever hurt you again, okay?
00:32:30Who the hell are you?
00:32:40On behalf of Sterling Core, I formally welcome you back to Phoenix Street.
00:32:44Welcome back, boss.
00:32:48She's the CEO of Phoenix Group?
00:32:56Phoenix Group CEO.
00:32:58Huh.
00:32:59That's impossible.
00:33:00There must be some mistake.
00:33:01This old hack doesn't even have money.
00:33:03Just look at her.
00:33:04Yeah.
00:33:05The richest CEO in the country wearing bargain bin clothes, working at an orphanage, and living in this dump?
00:33:11Please.
00:33:12Do you even hear yourself?
00:33:14If it wasn't for Miss Miller living a modest life, you'd still be orphans, you ungrateful brats.
00:33:22And you, you must be the adoptive daughter who saved Miss Miller.
00:33:26Don't be afraid.
00:33:28You're Miss Miller's daughter and the only one who protected her.
00:33:31And now, Sterling Core will protect you.
00:33:33If anyone tries to harm you, they'll pay the price.
00:33:37I just want to stay with my mom and take care of her.
00:33:41Please.
00:33:41Don't let them force me to marry this man.
00:33:47My sweet girl.
00:33:51No way!
00:33:52My parents paid good money for you, so you belong to me now.
00:33:55Your mother can run into nursing home for all I care.
00:33:58Nobody touches my daughter.
00:34:00John, break his wrist!
00:34:01Mr. Smith, please don't do this!
00:34:12Please, he's our only son!
00:34:14Please, he's all we've got!
00:34:15You love your son like I love my daughter.
00:34:19And yet, you let him terrorize Grace, and you didn't say anything.
00:34:24And now, you want to apologize?
00:34:27It's too late.
00:34:28But your daughter is fine.
00:34:30Do you really have to do this?
00:34:32If I let this go today, then you'll keep terrorizing those weaker than you, like my daughter.
00:34:38So today, there will be a lesson for not only your son, but for everyone else.
00:34:42Mark my words.
00:34:45Who do you think you are, barking at my parents and brother?
00:34:49Move or I'll end you all!
00:34:54Brittany, my sweet daughter.
00:34:56Thank God you're here.
00:34:57Don't worry, Dad.
00:34:59I've got this under control.
00:35:01Did you forget?
00:35:03My boyfriend is Alexander Miller's assistant.
00:35:07So what, young lady?
00:35:09And this is Alexander's mother, Miss Miller, CEO of Phoenix Group.
00:35:13Oh, she is not the CEO of Phoenix Group.
00:35:17She's a fraud!
00:35:21What are you talking about?
00:35:23Just because you're dating Alexander's lapdog doesn't mean you can run your mouth and spread lies.
00:35:27Lies?
00:35:28I've seen the Phoenix Group CEO with my own two eyes.
00:35:32She got me a present for my birthday.
00:35:43Sean, what's wrong?
00:35:44Today's my girlfriend's birthday, and she wants me to invite Miss Mary Miller to her party.
00:35:50What?
00:35:51She's so secluded, even her own son can't see her whenever he wants.
00:35:56How do you expect her to agree to meet your girlfriend?
00:35:58Wait, what if you pretend to be her?
00:36:04Nobody even knows what she looks like outside of the board anyway.
00:36:08Pretend to be CEO for my girlfriend's birthday party, and I'll get working on that promotion that you've been wanting for years.
00:36:14Oh, yeah?
00:36:20Hmm. Fine. I'll do it.
00:36:24Young lady, I don't know who your family is, but you better believe that I could destroy them with one phone call.
00:36:32Well, everyone here sees that you're just broke and delusional.
00:36:38Cut the act, you widowed hag!
00:36:42Don't say I didn't warn you.
00:36:44I'm going to have my boyfriend expose you for the fraud you really are.
00:36:58Brittany.
00:37:01I'm on my way.
00:37:01My mother's coming back to the Phoenix group today, so I want you guys to get her something absolutely spectacular, okay?
00:37:07It's time to show this city who's really been behind our success.
00:37:11Also, I want you to get something for that girl.
00:37:13The one that she adopted, that's been taking care of her.
00:37:16She's my sister now, so get her something grand as well.
00:37:22Boss, is everything okay?
00:37:24I need you to do something for me.
00:37:25It's about Brittany.
00:37:26Someone causing your girlfriend trouble?
00:37:29Don't worry. I'll handle it.
00:37:30I'll make them beg for mercy for what they've done.
00:37:33Take her right here.
00:37:35Gotta handle something for Sean.
00:37:37Yes, sir.
00:37:38Hear that?
00:37:43My daughter's boyfriend is Alexander Miller's assistant.
00:37:46He's one of Phoenix group's rising stars.
00:37:49You picked the wrong people to mess with.
00:37:51You're done for.
00:37:53Thank God we cut ties with you, crazy old witch.
00:37:55You almost gave me a heart attack, you old hag.
00:37:59Turns out you were a fraud all along.
00:38:01You.
00:38:03Who would have thought our daughter would end up dating Alexander's right-hand man?
00:38:08When her boyfriend gets here, we're going to strip you and your daughter naked and throw you into the streets.
00:38:15Let everyone see how we treat liars like you.
00:38:17I'm afraid you're in for quite a disappointment.
00:38:21Still acting tough?
00:38:23You really are shameless!
00:38:25Mom.
00:38:26John, handle this right now.
00:38:29She's scaring my daughter.
00:38:31Yes, Miss Miller.
00:38:31Back off, John!
00:38:45You're just some low-level manager.
00:38:47My boyfriend will destroy your career if you touch me!
00:38:52Did you just hit me?
00:38:57Not bad for an old hag.
00:38:59I get it now, John.
00:39:00You're siding with this hag because she crawled into your bed.
00:39:03You disgusting little...
00:39:05Oh, did I hurt a nerve?
00:39:08Just wait until my boyfriend gets here.
00:39:11I'm going to tell him that you hit me for this old slut.
00:39:14You're dead!
00:39:15You really think your boyfriend is that important?
00:39:20To me.
00:39:22He's nothing.
00:39:23Like, he doesn't even deserve to clean the dirt off my shoes.
00:39:27Nobody insults Mr. Sean Parker and lives to talk about it.
00:39:33Mike?
00:39:34Why are you alone?
00:39:35Where's Sean?
00:39:36Relax, Miss.
00:39:37Sean and Miss Miller have more important matters than dealing with trash.
00:39:41So, who's been causing trouble for my boss's girlfriend?
00:39:44It was this piece of garbage right here.
00:39:47She said that Mr. Sean Parker didn't deserve to clean the dirt off her shoes.
00:39:52And she's pretending to be the CEO of Phoenix Group, Miss Miller.
00:39:58Miss Miller?
00:40:02Miss Miller.
00:40:04Old hag.
00:40:05You've got some nerve pretending to be Miss Miller.
00:40:08Open your eyes.
00:40:10She is Miss Miller.
00:40:12Right.
00:40:13And I'm the Queen of England.
00:40:14Tell you what.
00:40:17If she's really the CEO, I'll tattoo fool on my forehead.
00:40:23Nice performance, John.
00:40:24Good thing I met the real CEO at Brittany's birthday party, or I might have fallen for your little act.
00:40:30I don't know who you think you met, but that was not the CEO.
00:40:32If my mom really lied, it was to protect me from being forced to marry the mayor's son.
00:40:38But if she isn't the CEO of Phoenix Group, then I apologize.
00:40:44Just please, don't hurt my mother.
00:40:48Well, what do we have here?
00:40:50Quite the pretty little thing.
00:40:53Since you're such a good daughter, I'll let this slide.
00:40:57Under one condition.
00:41:01Marry the mayor's son.
00:41:03And I'll forgive your mother's lies.
00:41:08Grace, don't listen to this fool.
00:41:12Mom.
00:41:14I never thought that I would have a real family.
00:41:18And then you adopted me.
00:41:21You gave me everything.
00:41:24Love, protection, a life.
00:41:26I owe you everything.
00:41:31So if...
00:41:32So if marrying the mayor's son will protect you...
00:41:38Then I'll do it.
00:41:44Back off.
00:41:45While you still can.
00:41:47If you hurt Grace or cross Miss Miller, you'll pay the price.
00:41:50Look at you, John.
00:41:51Completely entangled in this fraud spell.
00:41:54You know what's going to happen today, John.
00:41:56Huh?
00:41:57The real Miss Miller is returning to Phoenix Group.
00:42:00When Alexander finds out you're helping some imposter,
00:42:05you're finished.
00:42:07Miss Miller's returning to Phoenix Group today?
00:42:10With your boyfriend being Mr. Miller's assistant,
00:42:13surely you'll meet Miss Miller.
00:42:16Oh, please, let me come with you.
00:42:18I'd do anything to see Miss Miller.
00:42:21Miss Miller is a very private person.
00:42:25Most employees haven't even seen her.
00:42:27Well, I guess I could let you see her from a distance.
00:42:32Now then, time to deal with our little problem.
00:42:38Can't have these frauds causing trouble on such an important day.
00:42:42You fool!
00:42:45This woman is the real CEO of Phoenix Group.
00:42:48Mr. Miller sent me her photo.
00:42:50It's right here.
00:42:54It's right here.
00:42:59A photo?
00:43:00That can't prove anything.
00:43:01Anyone could fake that using AI.
00:43:03With AI these days, you can make any photo you want.
00:43:07You can't fool us.
00:43:08Look at her.
00:43:10She's just a pathetic nothing.
00:43:12Faking photos to play CEO?
00:43:14God, I've never seen anyone so desperate.
00:43:17What happened to all that talk about honesty and respect as we grew up, Mom?
00:43:22Or does that not apply to an old hag like you?
00:43:25You are good looking.
00:43:27For your age.
00:43:30No wonder you've got John wrapped around your finger, you witch.
00:43:33Shut your damn mouth.
00:43:34Stay away from her, you monster.
00:43:40Good thing we've got some time on our hands anyway.
00:43:43And broke?
00:43:45Single moms are my favorite kind.
00:43:50A feisty one, huh?
00:43:52Just the way I like it.
00:43:54You sure this is the right location?
00:44:09The coordinates led us here, sir.
00:44:11The mayor will know where she is.
00:44:12This is perfect.
00:44:15The mayor is about to see his future son-in-law working right beside the great Alexander Miller.
00:44:19This couldn't be better.
00:44:21Well, then what are we waiting for?
00:44:22Let's go find the mayor.
00:44:24Yes, sir.
00:44:24Um, this is private property.
00:44:33You can't show-
00:44:33That is Alexander Miller of the Phoenix Group that you're speaking to.
00:44:38Where is the mayor?
00:44:39I need him to find my mother.
00:44:41Alexander Miller?
00:44:42It is an honor to meet you.
00:44:45We did not expect you to show up at this wedding celebration.
00:44:48Wait a second.
00:44:49The wedding?
00:44:51Yes, the mayor's son's getting married.
00:44:53We didn't realize someone of your VIP status would be here.
00:44:57I didn't realize the mayor had such great connection.
00:44:59Right?
00:45:01Oh, that old woman will now regret not marrying her daughter into the mayor's family.
00:45:06Can you believe that?
00:45:07That dead broke vegetable?
00:45:09She acts all high and mighty.
00:45:11But you know what?
00:45:12That girl's not even really her daughter.
00:45:14She's adopted.
00:45:16That woman.
00:45:18Is she a single mother to three orphans?
00:45:21That's her, all right.
00:45:23But don't worry, sir, okay?
00:45:25The mayor has this town under control.
00:45:27And you know what?
00:45:28He's going to teach that old hat.
00:45:29What did you just call her?
00:45:34That woman you just insulted is my mother, the CEO of the Phoenix Group.
00:45:40The CEO of the Phoenix Group?
00:45:42That can't be.
00:45:45Pick that piece of shit up and have him take us to my mother.
00:45:48Yes, sir.
00:45:54You will regret every word that you said about the Miller family.
00:45:57Once Miss Miller comes back, her daughter Grace will be a part of the Phoenix family.
00:46:02If you think the mayor's son can marry some of her stature, you're delusional.
00:46:07Delusional.
00:46:07I want to meet this mayor myself.
00:46:10The audacity to treat Miss Miller and her daughter like this?
00:46:14Oh, I need to warn the mayor.
00:46:21Just the way I like it.
00:46:25How dare you talk to Miss Miller like that?
00:46:32Joe, she wants a real man now, John?
00:46:33By the time I'm done with her, she won't be moving that wheelchair anymore.
00:46:37Your problem is with me.
00:46:39Sterling Corp protects her on and we will die defending our boss.
00:46:46Must be giving John something real special.
00:46:49Why else would he risk everything with Phoenix Group to back up your pathetic lives?
00:46:53You won't live to see another day.
00:46:56Then I better make the most of now.
00:47:01Please, stop!
00:47:04Everyone, stop!
00:47:06What is it?
00:47:08Can't you see we're busy?
00:47:09That woman you're threatening, she...
00:47:11She...
00:47:12That woman you're threatening, she...
00:47:16She's nothing but an old widow.
00:47:20This is our town.
00:47:21We know what we're doing.
00:47:22Right.
00:47:22Especially with Alexander's people on our side.
00:47:26The sky could fall right now and I'm still gonna have my fun with you.
00:47:29Yeah.
00:47:31Well, when it falls, you'll be the first one to crumble.
00:47:35This is Phoenix Group's turf.
00:47:37I'm Sean Parker's right-hand man.
00:47:39Your precious boss should be on your knees before me.
00:47:42Just because you're some assistant's lap dog, it doesn't mean you're untouchable.
00:47:48Why don't you just make the call?
00:47:49Well, then we'll see how untouchable you really are.
00:47:53What's wrong?
00:47:55Are you getting nervous?
00:47:56Who could she possibly call?
00:47:58It's not like she has Alexander on speed dial.
00:48:00Let her make the call.
00:48:04I want to see who this pathetic widow runs to for help.
00:48:09Go ahead.
00:48:10Show us these powerful connections of yours.
00:48:12Stop!
00:48:14Don't let her make the call!
00:48:17Stop!
00:48:18Don't let her make the call!
00:48:20Shut your worthless mouth!
00:48:22You have no right to speak here!
00:48:25Afraid of a little phone call?
00:48:27That's Mike from Phoenix Group.
00:48:29No one in this city dares cross it.
00:48:33But, but, but she's...
00:48:34But, but, but...
00:48:36Can't even form a sentence?
00:48:38What, do you think this nobody's gonna call the Alexander Miller?
00:48:41Not another word.
00:48:43You're wasting our time.
00:48:44I need to get ready to meet the real Miss Miller later when she returns to the company.
00:48:49Brittany's right.
00:48:50We're about to welcome back the great Miss Miller.
00:48:53Nothing's changing that.
00:48:55Don't say I didn't give you a chance.
00:48:58Make your call, you fraud.
00:49:08Who's this?
00:49:10Hi.
00:49:10Mother?
00:49:17I can't believe they'd do this.
00:49:18Look, Mom, I got this.
00:49:20Don't worry, don't worry.
00:49:21I'm gonna handle this, okay?
00:49:22I know exactly what to do.
00:49:26So, you're this old hag's emergency contact.
00:49:30Guess what?
00:49:31You're screwed.
00:49:32Because my boyfriend is Sean Parker.
00:49:35Mr. Miller's right-hand man.
00:49:37Sean is your boyfriend, huh?
00:49:39Are you deaf or dumb?
00:49:41And how dare you refer to Sean by his first name?
00:49:43He is Alexander Miller's right-hand man.
00:49:47So, watch yourself.
00:49:48Brittany, you're speaking to Alexander Miller himself.
00:49:51Well, you're gonna find out soon enough.
00:49:53My boyfriend is Alexander Miller's man.
00:49:56He is going to destroy you.
00:49:59What?
00:49:59You wanna talk to Mike Hanson?
00:50:02How does your contact know my name?
00:50:08Talk to him.
00:50:09Find out.
00:50:10What happened, Mike?
00:50:12You scared to answer the phone?
00:50:13Shut up!
00:50:14Sean has my back.
00:50:15Why would I be scared of some loser this hag call?
00:50:19Who are you?
00:50:20How the hell do you know my name?
00:50:22The signals are always bad here.
00:50:30We need to get to my mother in five minutes.
00:50:31Let's go.
00:50:32Move.
00:50:32Come on.
00:50:33Yes, sir.
00:50:34Yes, sir.
00:50:34Yes, sir.
00:50:37You really had me fooled for a second there.
00:50:40I thought your friend was someone important.
00:50:42Turns out, he's just a coward.
00:50:44Couldn't even speak when he heard my voice.
00:50:46Couldn't say a word.
00:50:48Pathetic.
00:50:48Mike scared him speechless.
00:50:50Not so tough now, are you?
00:50:53You were, uh, clever.
00:50:56I'll give you that.
00:50:59I don't know how you managed to tell that friend of yours my name, but, uh, who cares?
00:51:05He's a spineless coward who can't even talk to me, let alone touch me.
00:51:10Stay away from her.
00:51:11Stay away from her.
00:51:41You filthy slut.
00:51:44You make me sick!
00:51:56It came from over there.
00:51:58Let's go!
00:52:03The mayor's family is finished.
00:52:11Shame.
00:52:16Should have been a kill shot.
00:52:19You've just burnt your last bridge.
00:52:22You will regret this.
00:52:24I'm just punishing a couple troublemakers.
00:52:27Is that a crime?
00:52:30Now, it's just you and me.
00:52:33Don't worry.
00:52:34I can treat you better than John ever could.
00:52:36Did you have another nightmare?
00:52:52Yeah.
00:52:54I'm sorry, sweetheart.
00:52:55You know I will always be here to protect you, right?
00:53:01I'm so sorry you have to go through that.
00:53:06Mom.
00:53:07This time, I'll protect you.
00:53:16Mom.
00:53:18It's your fault that we're in this mess.
00:53:21Just marry my brother like a good little girl, and we'll let your mother go.
00:53:26Yeah, we offered you a better life, and this is how you repay us.
00:53:30Some people just need their gratitude beaten into them.
00:53:35Please, I'm begging you.
00:53:36Don't hurt my mom.
00:53:38Let her go, and I'll marry Gregory, I swear.
00:53:41Well, that's better.
00:53:45Ew.
00:53:54You've had your fun.
00:53:56Wrap it up.
00:53:58Such a shame, hmm?
00:53:59I was just getting started.
00:54:01When I'm done with you, you're going to regret you were ever born.
00:54:06Still making threats?
00:54:07An old hag like you should be grateful I even want to touch you.
00:54:11If Brittany hadn't interrupted, we'd be having some real fun right now.
00:54:19Having fun with who?
00:54:20Who is he?
00:54:39That's some entrance.
00:54:40Look at those clothes.
00:54:41Must be connected to the mayor.
00:54:45Oh, my sweetheart.
00:54:46Is that really Miss Miller?
00:55:02We're at quit the entourage, baby.
00:55:04All this backup, just your little old me?
00:55:07Brittany, you don't understand.
00:55:09This is, um...
00:55:10Alexander Miller.
00:55:11I didn't think you'd come here yourself.
00:55:14Alexander who?
00:55:15Alexander Miller?
00:55:17That's Alexander Miller?
00:55:19Miss Miller's son?
00:55:20He's even dreamier in person.
00:55:31Sir, that woman is delusional.
00:55:34She claims she's your mother, the CEO of Phoenix School.
00:55:37Sir, it's my son's wedding today.
00:55:41We would be honored if you could attend the reception.
00:55:43After you meet with the real Miss Miller.
00:55:46It's an honor to meet you, sir.
00:55:49I'm Sean's girlfriend, the mayor's daughter.
00:55:52You can call me Brittany.
00:55:53If you need anything in this town, my family is at your service.
00:55:59Brittany, shut up.
00:56:01What?
00:56:02It's not every day you meet the Alexander Miller.
00:56:05Also, think about it.
00:56:07If Miss Miller comes to my brother's wedding party, too, we'll be the talk of the town.
00:56:12If you want to invite my mother to your party, then why don't you ask her yourself?
00:56:17Oh, what a brilliant idea.
00:56:19If you would be so kind as to lead us to her.
00:56:21There's no need for that.
00:56:23My mother is here right now.
00:56:30Where is she?
00:56:36Sir, are you playing some kind of trick on us?
00:56:39I don't see Miss Miller anywhere.
00:56:41I would certainly recognize her if she was in my town.
00:56:44Well, of course he would.
00:56:46Nothing happens here without the mayor knowing about it.
00:56:49Are you suggesting I wouldn't recognize my own mother?
00:56:55If what you're saying is true, when did she come to our town?
00:56:59Fifteen years ago.
00:57:01My mother came here to live in seclusion after she stepped down as the Phoenix CEO.
00:57:08Fifteen years ago?
00:57:09That's not possible.
00:57:18I'm so sorry it took so long, Mother.
00:57:22Come here, my son.
00:57:25You've gotten so old.
00:57:28I missed you.
00:57:31You're a beautiful man now.
00:57:33Phoenix Group CEO?
00:57:44Impossible.
00:57:49She's really Miss Miller?
00:57:51Phoenix Group CEO?
00:57:52Oh, there has to be some mistake.
00:57:56She's nothing but a filthy woman who works for the orphanage.
00:58:00That beggar could not possibly be the real Miss Miller.
00:58:06Miss Miller, please excuse my girlfriend's disgraceful behavior.
00:58:12I take full responsibility.
00:58:15Punish me as you see fit.
00:58:17Our adoptive mother is the famous Miss Miller?
00:58:23What have we done?
00:58:24One moment, Mother.
00:58:29Are you Grace?
00:58:33Take care, Mother.
00:58:36Let me handle this.
00:58:40Now it's time for you all to explain yourselves.
00:58:42This is all a misunderstanding.
00:58:56Apologize to my mother.
00:58:58Now.
00:59:02Miss Miller, I beg of you.
00:59:04I'm sorry.
00:59:05I'm so, so sorry.
00:59:07You're only apologizing now because you know who I am.
00:59:10As I said, you would regret being born.
00:59:14Guards, get him out of my sight.
00:59:17Make sure I never see his face in the city again.
00:59:23Sean, if that's the real Miss Miller,
00:59:25then who did you invite to my birthday dinner?
00:59:28Tell her.
00:59:29Tell her she's never really met me.
00:59:31Tell her that I'm the real CEO of Phoenix.
00:59:33You thought you actually deserved to see the real Miss Miller?
00:59:44It was just some employee that I paid to pretend.
00:59:47I didn't think you'd be stupid enough to not notice.
00:59:50And now, look at the trouble you've caused.
00:59:55Miss Miller, this worthless girl has caused nothing but trouble.
00:59:59I'll kill her myself if you'll forgive me.
01:00:01Someone like you doesn't even deserve to work at the Phoenix Group.
01:00:07Remove him.
01:00:08Miss Miller, we were wrong.
01:00:17We'll never do anything like this again.
01:00:19Please have mercy.
01:00:22Forgive us just this once.
01:00:24You all tortured people for years.
01:00:28If I was to forgive you, you would go on and continue to hurt innocent people.
01:00:34Take them away.
01:00:35Deal with them accordingly.
01:00:37Make them away!
01:00:39Make them away!
01:00:39No!
01:00:40No!
01:00:41No!
01:00:41No!
01:00:47Where do you think you're going?
01:00:49Listen, I am not done with you two.
01:00:54What are you planning on doing with these two?
01:00:56You two wanted this house so badly.
01:00:59Burn it down.
01:01:01You don't deserve it.
01:01:02You heard my mother.
01:01:04Burn it down.
01:01:04Now!
01:01:05Yes, sir.
01:01:05Yes, sir.
01:01:05Yes, sir.
01:01:06Mother.
01:01:34Mother.
01:01:35Mother, please.
01:01:36For your children.
01:01:49All these years in seclusion, I gave you everything.
01:01:53And yet all you wanted was for me to die?
01:01:56You've really shown your true colors.
01:01:59And you know what?
01:02:00Now you never have to call me mother again.
01:02:06And you?
01:02:10You're not off the hook.
01:02:12I'll deal with you later.
01:02:16Yes, Miss Mother.
01:02:22My dear, somebody very special I want to introduce you to.
01:02:26Grace.
01:02:27This is my son, Alexander.
01:02:29It's an honor to meet you, sir.
01:02:32Please, you're my sister now.
01:02:34There's no need for formalities.
01:02:36Mother.
01:02:37I've arranged a welcome banquet for you at the Cloud Peak Restaurant.
01:02:40What better occasion to introduce my daughter to the whole world?
01:02:46The future heiress of the Phoenix Group.
01:02:55It's a historical day for the Phoenix Group.
01:02:57The city must know.
01:02:59Our CEO is back.
01:03:02I'll send out the invitations.
01:03:03Is that your boyfriend?
01:03:11The one that was studying abroad?
01:03:14Yes.
01:03:15He promised me when he came back home that he would propose to me.
01:03:20I'm expecting him to pop the question anytime now.
01:03:23That's wonderful.
01:03:25Take the call, but why don't you also invite him to the banquet tonight, okay?
01:03:29Okay.
01:03:32Hi.
01:03:35Cloud Peak Restaurant.
01:03:36Yeah, I can meet you there.
01:03:40There's, um, actually something important I need to tell you.
01:03:43What's your work on with today?
01:03:46Yeah, we said let me know.
01:03:56Oh, my God.
01:04:01Oh, my God.
01:04:02Who's that beautiful young woman?
01:04:18She must be someone important to be at Phoenix Grove's banquet tonight.
01:04:26Nathan!
01:04:32Victoria?
01:04:36Long time no see, bestie.
01:04:42What's going on here?
01:04:45What does it look like?
01:04:48Best friend and I are together now.
01:04:52But you promised me you'd give me a ring when you came back.
01:04:57Oh, he did get a ring.
01:05:00Just not for you, loser.
01:05:02I'm shocked to see our son engaged as someone worthy of him.
01:05:08A proper match, at last.
01:05:11Unlike you and your useless poor mother, who can't possibly help him in his career.
01:05:17That's right.
01:05:18My mother's a secretary at Phoenix Group.
01:05:21And she got Nathan the regional manager position at the company.
01:05:24Things change when you have the right connections.
01:05:28Isn't that right, sweetie?
01:05:29So that's why you chose my best friend over me?
01:05:34How could you both do this to me?
01:05:37Shut your mouth.
01:05:41Oh, honey.
01:05:43Save yourself the humiliation and leave.
01:05:46You don't belong here.
01:05:48Everything's set.
01:05:58City's most powerful leader here to meet Grace.
01:06:00Grace deserves this moment.
01:06:17After tonight, everyone will know that she's the heiress of the Phoenix Group.
01:06:21Wait, what?
01:06:29Someone's causing trouble to my sister.
01:06:34Did you honestly think you could compete with me?
01:06:37You're just the daughter of some poor, crazy woman who can't even walk.
01:06:43And that dress.
01:06:45What'd you do?
01:06:46Steal it?
01:06:48Trash like you could never afford a dress like that.
01:06:50You probably borrowed it to pretend she's not poor.
01:06:54Just like your mother.
01:06:55Pretending to be someone she's not.
01:06:57Let me return it to whatever store you stole it from.
01:07:00Mom!
01:07:08Mom!
01:07:18Don't worry, sweetheart.
01:07:20Your mother will always protect you now, okay?
01:07:30How dare you throw wine on my future daughter-in-law?
01:07:34How disgusting.
01:07:36This is why poor people like her have no business at events like this.
01:07:40And who might you be?
01:07:41I'm Nathan's father.
01:07:43Bill Carter.
01:07:44And I am his mother, Helen.
01:07:46So your son is the young man that my daughter was interested in?
01:07:53Just as I suspect.
01:07:55He's not worthy of my daughter.
01:07:57Who are you to talk down to my son like that?
01:08:01Our son is the perfect match any girl could hope for.
01:08:05Oh, really?
01:08:17The three heirs of the largest corporation?
01:08:20Only Phoenix Group is above them.
01:08:22What are they doing here?
01:08:23I'm James Bryan from the Sterling International Group.
01:08:30It's an honor to meet you, Grace.
01:08:32Grace, would you be honored to meet me at the dinner bar sometimes?
01:08:36I would love to take a travel with me when you can.
01:08:39My schedule is completely open.
01:08:41I, I...
01:08:42Sweetheart, don't be afraid.
01:08:45You really do deserve someone better.
01:08:47Grace, these are some of the finest young men in the city.
01:08:52And if none of them are to your desire,
01:08:54they're CEOs, they're entrepreneurs, and they're architects eager to meet you.
01:09:00What's going on?
01:09:02Why are all these rich men surrounding trash like you?
01:09:04You pathetic whore!
01:09:06Since when do you know people with real money?
01:09:09You manipulative little slut!
01:09:12What other secrets are you hiding?
01:09:14You think you're good enough to touch my sister?
01:09:21Did you just say...
01:09:24Sister?
01:09:26I thought you said she was an orphan!
01:09:29How can she be Alexander's sister?
01:09:33Alexander, surely there's been some sort of mistake.
01:09:37And who exactly do you think you are to question me?
01:09:39Alexander, you must be confused.
01:09:45Grace is nothing but a worthless orphan.
01:09:48It's true, she's nothing but trash.
01:09:54She's garbage!
01:09:55Nothing but garbage!
01:10:03Who?
01:10:03Who are you?
01:10:06Since you're so desperate to find out who my daughter is,
01:10:13you, you'll find out soon enough.
01:10:17And you!
01:10:18You will see exactly what you threw away.
01:10:23Ladies and gentlemen,
01:10:25please welcome the CEO of Phoenix Group,
01:10:28Ms. Miller!
01:10:29She, she, she, she can't be!
01:10:55The, really, the CEO of the Phoenix Group.
01:11:05Thank you all for coming this evening.
01:11:08During my absence, I worked the hardest, most low-paying job.
01:11:14I wanted to understand the struggle of the less fortunate.
01:11:17What I ended up finding was something unexpected.
01:11:20I found a daughter with a heart of gold.
01:11:25Tonight, I am proud to introduce the future heiress of the Phoenix Group.
01:11:31Ah, you worthless bitch.
01:11:33This is all your fault!
01:11:35You made me betray Grace.
01:11:38Don't blame me because you threw away someone important.
01:11:43Grace, please.
01:11:45I never cared about her.
01:11:46I always loved you.
01:11:48Just give me another chance.
01:11:49I'll prove myself worthy.
01:11:53Alexander.
01:11:59Your sister is both kind and wise.
01:12:02You need to trust that she'll do the right thing.
01:12:04Grace, Victoria deceived us all.
01:12:11Our son truly cares for you.
01:12:13Give him one more chance.
01:12:15Yes, Grace.
01:12:16You and Nathan have history.
01:12:18If you become our daughter-in-law, we'll treat you like our own.
01:12:22When you thought my mom and I were nothing,
01:12:25you treated us like dirt.
01:12:27And then you stood by and watched while Nathan betrayed me
01:12:31and humiliated my mother.
01:12:33Grace, I was wrong.
01:12:34I mean, even my parents see you now.
01:12:37It will never, ever happen again.
01:12:39I swear.
01:12:41You're only sorry because of who I am now.
01:12:44Yes, I once had feelings for you.
01:12:47But that's over.
01:12:50I never want to see you again.
01:12:57You think you're above me now?
01:12:59Pay me $100 million or else everyone finds out how you really became the Phoenix Group Eris.
01:13:08By sleeping with your own adoptive brother.
01:13:16How dare you?
01:13:17That's a lie.
01:13:19Truth doesn't matter.
01:13:21My mother is a PR manager at Phoenix Group.
01:13:23She can forge all the proof we need.
01:13:26The press will eat it up.
01:13:27And I'll back every word of it.
01:13:30After all, I am regional manager of Phoenix Group.
01:13:35Just pay us the money.
01:13:36The Phoenix Group has the money.
01:13:38Or watch your reputation crumble.
01:13:40Is your mother's name Sarah Bell?
01:13:44She's the PR manager for Phoenix Group, right?
01:13:47So what old hag?
01:13:50Oh, wow.
01:13:51She clearly didn't know how to teach you manners.
01:13:55So I guess she's fired.
01:13:58What?
01:13:59You can't do that!
01:14:01You and your two families can take your stuff and get out of the city.
01:14:06You're going to have a very hard time finding any work here.
01:14:12Please have mercy on my son.
01:14:15He's a foolish boy.
01:14:16He doesn't know what he's doing.
01:14:19Take them away.
01:14:21I do not want to see them in the city again.
01:14:26Yes, Ms. Miller.
01:14:28Wait.
01:14:29No, no, don't touch me!
01:14:31Grace!
01:14:32No, wait!
01:14:32Grace!
01:14:39Sweetheart, don't let his cruelty spoil this evening.
01:14:43This moment, it is yours.
01:14:46They can't hurt me anymore, Mom.
01:14:48Not with you by my side.
01:14:51My sweet daughter.
01:14:53You, you stuck by me when I was sick.
01:14:56And I almost died, and you never gave up on me.
01:15:00And you gave me hope and strength.
01:15:04You gave me so much more.
01:15:07You gave me love when I thought I would never know what that would feel like.
01:15:10And you rescued me and you gave me a family.
01:15:12Tonight, I want everyone to see who you really are.
01:15:22You're kind, compassionate, brilliant, unbreakable.
01:15:27And I mean no one will ever speak down to you again.
01:15:32I don't need the world's approval, Mom.
01:15:34I have everything I could ever want right here.
01:15:37My dad, my sweet daughter.
01:15:43Ladies and gentlemen, I have a very important announcement to make.
01:15:49Not only will my mother be coming back,
01:15:52as the CEO, I'm proud to announce as well,
01:15:56that my sister, Grace,
01:15:59will be joining our team at the Phoenix Group
01:16:01as the youngest billionaire heiress.
01:16:19Praise to the Miller family.
01:16:22Praise to the Miller family.
