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