00:00:00Doctor, is my mom going to be okay?
00:00:17I'm sorry, Grace. She has a brain hemorrhage.
00:00:21With immediate surgery, there is a chance, but it'll cost $500,000.
00:00:29$500.
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. Please, just save my mom.
00:00:38I can do that.
00:00:41Grace Miller!
00:00:43Rose, well, thank God you two are here.
00:00:45Mom was working at the orphanage when she fainted, and it's going to cost $500,000.
00:00:49$500,000?
00:00:51And where are we supposed to get that?
00:00:54Call off the surgery, Doc. There's no way we're paying for that.
00:00:58Rose, what are you saying? She's our mom. She adopted us. You can't just...
00:01:03And forced us to grow up dirt poor.
00:01:05She's a lowlife worker. She 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. She took us in when we had nothing.
00:01:15She gave us a home. She made sure that we were never hungry.
00:01:19And you're just mad at her because she's not rich?
00:01:21Speaking of money, today's mom's paid it.
00:01:27This is Mom's. Don't you dare touch it!
00:01:30No! No! No! No! No! No!
00:01:34No! No! No! No, Mom worked hard for that.
00:01:51Should be enough for a new iPhone, though.
00:01:53Mom needs that money for her surgery. You can't just take it.
00:01:55Sure we can. That old hag's about to die. Her money's ours now.
00:01:59You want money? Pick it up!
00:02:14Consider this our donation to mom's surgery.
00:02:18Or funeral.
00:02:29I'll save you, Mom.
00:02:32I'll save you, Mom.
00:02:38I can sell blood for money.
00:02:40This is the only way I might be able to save Mom.
00:02:43I'll save you, Mom.
00:02:44Save mom.
00:02:47The End
00:02:53I'll save Mom.
00:02:55I'll save mom.
00:02:58The End
00:02:59Go ahead and take a seat, guys.
00:03:21Look, I've gathered you all here today for a very important announcement.
00:03:2515 years ago, my mother, Mary Miller, disappeared to live a quiet life in a small town.
00:03:30But now, she is returning to take her rightful place as the CEO of the Phoenix Group, ladies
00:03:36and gentlemen.
00:03:37The CEO has finally returned.
00:03:38Miss 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, we've remained in contact over the
00:03:54years, and she's adopted three children, who I believe will be joining our company very
00:03:58soon.
00:04:00Sir, we can't find your mother.
00:04:02She isn't answering our calls.
00:04:04What?
00:04:05My mother is missing?
00:04:09I want to sell my blood.
00:04:11Please.
00:04:12I have an extremely rare blood type, type AB negative.
00:04:16You need it, and I need money for my mother's surgery.
00:04:20Please.
00:04:20Please.
00:04:41We are at 400.
00:04:43I have to stop now, or you'll pass out.
00:04:44No, no.
00:04:45Don't stop.
00:04:46I can do it.
00:04:47I just keep...
00:04:51Miss.
00:04:51I just keep...
00:04:52I can't call me.
00:04:54Miss?
00:04:55Miss?
00:04:56Miss?
00:04:57Miss?
00:04:58Miss?
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, with your mother's condition,
00:05:27we're looking at some very expensive long-term care.
00:05:30I got it, doctor. She's my mom. I won't give up on her.
00:05:36She's very lucky to have you. I'll go work on the list of her medication.
00:05:45You adopted me, Mom. You taught me what family was.
00:05:52Love is... Don't worry. I'm not going to give up on you. I'm going to make sure you get better.
00:06:08It's been hours. Where is Ms. Miller?
00:06:10If Ms. Miller says she's returning, then she will be 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 for her.
00:06:24Did you reach her? Her phone? It's completely dead. She'd never let that happen. Not on the day that she's supposed to return.
00:06:33Something's not right.
00:06:36Do whatever it takes. Flip this city upside down. I don't care, but we're going to find my mother.
00:06:40One day at work here will cover three days of Mom's medication.
00:07:00Next!
00:07:00No, sir. I'm here to work. Please, if there's any opportunity that you have, I would gladly take it.
00:07:07Come on, Grace. Everyone knows you passed out yesterday at the hospital. I can't have you dying on my sight. I'll lose my damn job.
00:07:13No, please, please. I'm begging you. Please, I really need the money. My mom will die without it.
00:07:19But with treatment, I mean, there's a chance that she may wake up.
00:07:24But if I give up, it's over for her. Please.
00:07:28If I catch you slacking off one time, I won't pay you a single penny.
00:07:36Thank you so much. You can trust me. I am a hard worker. Thank you.
00:07:41Next!
00:07:45Don't worry, Mom. I'll make enough money, and you'll get better.
00:07:48All right, time for lunch. Get back to work as soon as you're finished.
00:08:13Grace!
00:08:16Lucy, what's wrong?
00:08:17You have to get home right now, Grace.
00:08:19Your sister and brother are selling your mom's house.
00:08:28We'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. Let'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.
00:08:44Now, with just one little stamp here, you'll give us what we deserve.
00:08:48As if this old hag can hear you. Just get it over with already.
00:08:55What are you doing?
00:08:59Mom. Mom, are you okay?
00:09:01You're trying to steal Mom's house? You 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? Hello? Can you speak up? Speak up!
00:09:22Get 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. That's...
00:09:35Oh, 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.
00:10:07I 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.
00:10:18You stupid bitch.
00:10:32I'm tired of repeating myself. Mom is dying. Dead people don't need a house.
00:10:39You know, William and I just want the best for you, little sis.
00:10:43Say, you and the mayor's son are the same age, right?
00:10:48Mayor's daughter-in-law sounds awfully nice.
00:10:51What? The mayor's daughter-in-law?
00:10:56After 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.
00:11:18Well, 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!
00:11:35No, no, don't touch me!
00:11:48You can't say no to me!
00:11:49My dad owns this town.
00:11:50Nobody 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.
00:11:59Guys, we 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?
00:12:08Mom'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?
00:12:17William and I are doing this for you and Mom.
00:12:20You should be grateful.
00:12:22Half a million, and she's all yours tonight.
00:12:25Steep price for an orphan.
00:12:26I don't care, Dad!
00:12:28You promised me I can have her, and I want her.
00:12:31Give them what they want.
00:12:32Whether you want a grandson or not, she can work for us.
00:12:35Nice to meet you.
00:12:36Ah!
00:12:41Pleasure doing business with you, sir.
00:12:43My sister's all yours.
00:12:47No, no, no, Mom!
00:12:50Mom, please!
00:12:51Don't take me, Mom!
00:12:52No one sells my daughter.
00:13:14No one sells my daughter.
00:13:14No one sells my daughter.
00:13:16Get away from my daughter!
00:13:30Oh, Mom!
00:13:32Thank God you're awake!
00:13:34Don't scare us like that again, okay?
00:13:37I didn't know what to do!
00:13:38Yeah, Mom.
00:13:39We're so happy to have you back.
00:13:41It looks like you know exactly what you're doing.
00:13:49Selling the house.
00:13:51No, Mom.
00:13:51You have the wrong idea.
00:13:53We were selling the house to help pay for your treatment.
00:13:56Treatment?
00:13:57You didn't even want to pay for Mom's surgery.
00:13:59Don'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...
00:14:09Grace, 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.
00:14:21Enough!
00:14:23Just because I had my eyes closed doesn't mean that I didn't hear everything you said.
00:14:30And 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.
00:14:41I didn't know what else to do.
00:14:44Oh, my sweet daughter.
00:14:46I heard everything.
00:14:48Everything 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,
00:15:11you won't get anything.
00:15:15Well, William and I would have considered looking after you if you were even moderately wealthy.
00:15:27But you're just poor.
00:15:29Do you know how goddamn embarrassing it is to call you our mother?
00:15:36Embarrassing?
00:15:37When we were orphans, nobody wanted us.
00:15:40Mom gave us a home.
00:15:41She saved us.
00:15:43Saved us?
00:15:45I 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?
00:15:59We already have your signature and fingerprint on the inheritance letter.
00:16:03It'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.
00:16:19You 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.
00:16:27Miss Miller.
00:16:39Miss Miller.
00:16:44Alexander.
00:16:45It's me.
00:16:46My mother was in danger.
00:16:52Thanks to her adopted daughter, Grace, she's safe in a small town.
00:16:57I'm heading over there to bring her back home.
00:16:58Someone who dares to threaten Miss Miller must be insane.
00:17:01Let us come with you, sir.
00:17:02We should all be there to welcome her back.
00:17:04And we'll show those who crossed her who's boss.
00:17:07Sir, 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 her for crossing her.
00:17:18Yes, sir.
00:17:19I'm coming, mother.
00:17:20Wait, she has another son?
00:17:22No idea who the guy is.
00:17:23I wonder where she found this guy.
00:17:25Probably 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.
00:17:35Relax, Grace.
00:17:38Soon they'll be on their knees, begging for forgiveness.
00:17:41Who do you think you are, you old hag?
00:17:43Some kind of superhero?
00:17:45The mayor is related to Mr. Smith.
00:17:47The 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.
00:17:59He should be here at any moment.
00:18:01Mr. Smith?
00:18:02You mean John?
00:18:04Speaking as if she knows him personally.
00:18:06The man controls billions.
00:18:08The nerve on this woman.
00:18:10Let me explain something to you.
00:18:12Phoenix Group isn't just some company.
00:18:15They own everything.
00:18:18They're untouchable gods among men.
00:18:21She 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.
00:18:55I 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.
00:19:04I never thought I'd ever meet Ms. Miller in person.
00:19:07This is a once-in-a-lifetime chance.
00:19:11She's the pride of the city.
00:19:12But, sir, we don't even have a photo of her.
00:19:15We don't know what she looks like.
00:19:15I have other matters to attend to in that town anyway.
00:19:18Let'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.
00:19:35Enough.
00:19:36I 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?
00:19:58Our money not good enough for you?
00:20:01Fine.
00:20:02Name your price.
00:20:04Everything has one.
00:20:06Just like you.
00:20:09Oh, how amusing.
00:20:12You think that you can buy me off?
00:20:15I would love to see you try.
00:20:18Hmm.
00:20:21Word 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.
00:20:28This Grace Miller must be someone special.
00:20:30There aren't a lot of daughters like her out there.
00:20:34It's me.
00:20:35Make sure to arrange an exceptional gift for Miss Miller.
00:20:39And prepare something special for Grace Miller.
00:20:41Only the best for the girl that saved Miss Miller.
00:20:43Sir, John Smith should be arriving to town any moment now.
00:20:49The signal there is terrible.
00:20:51I 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.
00:21:03You think that you can buy me?
00:21:05Well, just look at you, wearing 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, thanking us for the chance at a better life.
00:21:22Your son is a worthless parasite that vultures would refuse to eat.
00:21:32How dare you speak that way about my son?
00:21:35I was abandoned as a child.
00:21:51When 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.
00:22:03But 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.
00:22:11Boo-hoo.
00:22:13I'm in tears.
00:22:14Who cares if we insult this old hag?
00:22:16My husband is the mayor, and we can do anything we want, as a matter of fact.
00:22:22My son can take you right here, and right now if he wants.
00:22:29I'm going to teach my wife some manners.
00:22:31No, no, no, stay back, please.
00:22:33You will all regret this.
00:22:37No, stay back, please.
00:22:38No, stay back, please.
00:22:46Holy shit.
00:22:48Is that John Smith?
00:22:49The mayor's got some family problems from what I hear, and he's probably just here to help them out.
00:22:59What the hell?
00:23:00No, no, no, go where?
00:23:02I could assure you the consequences for spreading unverified rumors in front of Mr. Smith are serious.
00:23:10Mr. Smith, please let us go.
00:23:12Please, sir, let us go.
00:23:13We had nothing to do with this.
00:23:14You should be talking to that family over there who rejected the mayor's son.
00:23:20You're lying.
00:23:21Who dare reject Gregory Warren?
00:23:23Don't they know he's related to Mr. Smith?
00:23:25We're not lying, sir.
00:23:27You can see for yourself.
00:23:28Our 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.
00:23:36Stop.
00:23:36Stop.
00:23:39Stop.
00:23:40Stop.
00:23:44Hit her again, mother.
00:23:46We offer you everything, and you choose to stay in this filth?
00:23:50Fine.
00:23:50Stay here and rot.
00:23:52My mother's love means everything to me.
00:23:55I'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.
00:24:03Too bad that's not your decision to make.
00:24:08Mr. Smith?
00:24:10He actually came.
00:24:11Only the famous John Smith could arrive in such style.
00:24:14Mr. Smith, thank you for coming.
00:24:16What's going on here?
00:24:17You're related to someone like me.
00:24:19Finding your son or 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.
00:24:27And Mr. Smith, they even had the audacity to threaten you.
00:24:31Said 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.
00:24:46Hello, 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?
00:25:11Anything to say at all, Mary, about the transition of power?
00:25:14Miss Miller.
00:25:16Miss Miller.
00:25:18Miss 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.
00:25:31If you really want to show your gratitude,
00:25:34take good care of Sterling Group.
00:25:36I'm counting on you.
00:25:41How dare you use Mr. Smith's first name
00:25:44and keep our boss's name out of your mouth.
00:25:46or else I'll...
00:25:47Wait!
00:25:52You keep our boss's name out of your mouth
00:25:54or 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.
00:26:03I do know you, John.
00:26:06How dare you address Mr. Smith like that?
00:26:10Trash like you should show respect.
00:26:12Mr. Smith, this is just some old woman who works as a cheap laborer at the orphanage nearby.
00:26:18A day laborer?
00:26:20I must have mistaken her for someone else.
00:26:22What happened to all your threats?
00:26:24Weren'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?
00:26:32Don't touch my mom.
00:26:35Oh, you want to be brave too?
00:26:38Huh?
00:26:38Mr. 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.
00:26:51You mean Miss Miller?
00:26:53Yeah.
00:26:53She's Phoenix Group's CEO.
00:26:55They say she controls all the city.
00:26:58But she disappeared years ago
00:26:59when she gave control to her son when he turned 18.
00:27:02We could have been living the high life if she had adopted us
00:27:05instead of being stuck with this worthless woman.
00:27:09Mr. 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.
00:27:16I have to find and greet her.
00:27:18I can't let this petty situation get in the way.
00:27:21Take her to the church.
00:27:23No, let me go.
00:27:24I won't marry him.
00:27:25I need to stay with my mom.
00:27:27Try to get past me.
00:27:28See how that works.
00:27:32Try to get past me.
00:27:36See how that works out for you.
00:27:37Move aside, ma'am.
00:27:38Mr. Smith is due to welcome back the CEO of Phoenix Group.
00:27:42If you and your daughter get in the way, you'll pay the price.
00:27:48So, this is how you run Sterling Group now.
00:27:53Torment the weak?
00:27:55Throw your weight around?
00:27:56Shut your damn mouth.
00:27:58Stripper.
00:27:59Let her mother watch what happens to people who defy me.
00:28:05You are making your last mistake.
00:28:08You think I'm scared of some empty threats from an old hag in a wheelchair?
00:28:12What are you going to do about it?
00:28:15No, no, no, no.
00:28:17How could I be so foolish?
00:28:46Miss 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.
00:28:57Just watch.
00:28:58Well, that'll teach you to disrespect someone like Mr. Smith.
00:29:01Crawl on the ground and beg for forgiveness, you pathetic old hag.
00:29:05That's right.
00:29:06Go on.
00:29:07And grovel before he destroys you.
00:29:10I have no need to apologize.
00:29:11I 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.
00:29:23What planet are you even living on?
00:29:27You're not just a beggar.
00:29:28You're a complete lunatic.
00:29:30What planet is missing anything?
00:29:32What planet is missing everything?
00:29:33Yeah, Romans, you're going to be 사�line and sh kilos.
00:29:36ítulo2 điều重要 demoges of Stu.
00:29:38Just find a Staatsi妥.
00:29:39Sir, what's the matter?
00:30:04On your knees.
00:30:06What, sir?
00:30:06She's just somebody.
00:30:07I said on your knees!
00:30:09Are you all deaf?
00:30:16Get on your knees!
00:30:19Mr. Smith, what's this all about?
00:30:21Are you not feeling well?
00:30:23What did this brain-dead bitch do to him?
00:30:26Get away before whatever's riding in her head spreads!
00:30:30Mr. Smith, what are you doing?
00:30:34I'm warning you.
00:30:35Do not disrespect this woman.
00:30:37She is.
00:30:40She is.
00:30:41She is nothing but a pathetic waste of space.
00:30:44She can't even stand on her own two feet.
00:30:47Her brain is riding away and she doesn't have a penny to her name.
00:30:50Are you seriously going to defend this old witch?
00:30:55Looks like you remember me now, John.
00:31:01Why don't you tell everyone else who I am?
00:31:03Go ahead.
00:31:06But dress him as Mr. Smith, you disrespectful old hag.
00:31:12Mr. Smith, we never wanted her as her mother.
00:31:15We've already cut ties with this woman.
00:31:17We don't support her behavior at all.
00:31:20Please, don't punish us for her actions.
00:31:24I understand you're upset, Mr. Smith.
00:31:26Let me remove this worthless woman.
00:31:29Ah!
00:31:30Ah!
00:31:31Ah!
00:31:33Leave!
00:31:34All of you!
00:31:35Mr. Smith, why are you protecting her?
00:31:39She's beneath you.
00:31:40Mr. Smith, please.
00:31:42We're family.
00:31:43Family?
00:31:44You're just distant relatives.
00:31:47The only reason I maintain contact with you is because someone told me to never forget where
00:31:52I came from.
00:31:52And that someone was her.
00:31:56She helped me build Sterling Core for nothing.
00:32:05John, return my daughter to me, and we'll discuss your actions later.
00:32:11Yes, Miss Miller.
00:32:24Mom.
00:32:25No one will ever hurt you again, okay?
00:32:30Who the hell are you?
00:32:35On behalf of Sterling Core, I formally welcome you back to Phoenix Group.
00:32:44Welcome back, boss.
00:32:48She's the CEO of Phoenix Group?
00:32:55Phoenix Group's CEO.
00:32:58Huh.
00:32:58That'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.
00:33:04Uh, the richest CEO in the country wearing bargain bin clothes, working at an orphanage,
00:33:10and 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
00:33:18brats.
00:33:21And 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.
00:33:30And now, Sterling Core will protect you.
00:33:33If anyone tries to harm you, they'll pay the price.
00:33:36I just want to stay with my mom and take care of her.
00:33:40Please.
00:33:42Don't let them force me to marry this man.
00:33:47My sweet girl.
00:33:49No way.
00:33:51My parents paid good money for you, so you belong to me now.
00:33:54What?
00:33:55Your mother can run into nursing home for all I care.
00:33:57Nobody touches my daughter.
00:33:59John, break his wrist.
00:34:03John, break his wrist.
00:34:04Mr. Smith, please don't do this.
00:34:12Please, he's our only son.
00:34:13Please, he's all we've got.
00:34:15You love your son like I love my daughter, and yet you let him terrorize Grace, and you
00:34:22didn't say anything.
00:34:23And 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?
00:34:31If I let this go today, then you'll keep terrorizing those weaker than you, like my daughter.
00:34:37So 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.
00:35:00Did 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.
00:35:14She 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.
00:35:26Lies?
00:35:28I've seen the Phoenix Group CEO with my own two eyes.
00:35:32She got me a present for my birthday.
00:35:33Sean, what's wrong?
00:35:44Today's my girlfriend's birthday, and she wants me to invite Miss Mary Miller to her party.
00:35:49Ha ha ha ha!
00:35:50What?
00:35:51She's so secluded, even her own son can't see her whenever he wants.
00:35:55Ha!
00:35:55How do you expect her to agree to meet your girlfriend?
00:36:00Wait.
00:36:01What if you pretend to be her?
00:36:04Nobody even knows what she looks like outside of the board anyway.
00:36:08Ugh.
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?
00:36:18Hmm, fine.
00:36:22I'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.
00:36:33Everyone here sees that you're just broke and delusional.
00:36:37Cut the act, you widowed hag!
00:36:39Don'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.
00:37:00I'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.
00:37:15She's my sister now, so get her something grand as well.
00:37:21Boss, is everything okay?
00:37:23I 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.
00:37:31I'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.
00:37:41Hear 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, 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!
00:38:01Who would have thought our daughter would end up dating Alexander's right-hand man?
00:38:08When her boyfriend gets here, we're gonna 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.
00:38:25John, handle this right now.
00:38:29She's scaring my daughter.
00:38:30Yes, Miss Miller.
00:38:31Oh, I'm sorry.
00:38:41Oh, I'm sorry.
00:38:43Oh.
00:38:44Back off, John!
00:38:45You're just some low-level manager.
00:38:47My boyfriend will destroy your career if you touch me!
00:38:50Did you just hit me?
00:38:56Not bad for an old hag.
00:38:58I 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.
00:39:10I'm going to tell him that you hit me for this old slut!
00:39:13You're dead!
00:39:15You really think your boyfriend is that important?
00:39:19To 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!
00:39:32Mike?
00:39:33Why are you alone?
00:39:35Where's Sean?
00:39:35Relax, Miss.
00:39:37Sean and Miss Miller have more important matters than dealing with trash.
00:39:40So, 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, Ms. Miller!
00:39:58Ms. Miller?
00:40:02Ms. Miller, old hag.
00:40:05You've got some nerve pretending to be Ms. Miller.
00:40:08Open your eyes.
00:40:10She is Ms. Miller.
00:40:12Right!
00:40:12And I'm the Queen of England.
00:40:14Tell you what.
00:40:16If she's really the CEO, I'll tattoo fool on my forehead.
00:40:22Nice 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.
00:40:29I don't know who you think you met, but that was not the CEO.
00:40:34If my mom really lied, it was to protect me from being forced to marry the mayor's son.
00:40:39But 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.
00:40:52Since you're such a good daughter, I'll let this lie.
00:40:57Under one condition.
00:41:01Marry the mayor's son.
00:41:06And I'll forgive your mother's lies.
00:41:08Grace, don't listen to this fool.
00:41:12Mom.
00:41:13I 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.
00:41:28I owe you everything.
00:41:31So if...
00:41:33So if marrying the mayor's son will protect you...
00:41:38Then I'll do it.
00:41:43Back off while 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?
00:42:09With 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.
00:42:22Miss 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.
00:42:30Now then, time to deal with our little problem.
00:42:38Can't have these frauds causing trouble on such an important day.
00:42:44You 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.
00:42:55A 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.
00:43:29No wonder you've got John wrapped around your finger, you witch.
00:43:33Shut your damn mouth.
00:43:35Stay away from her, you monster.
00:43:40Good thing you've got some time on our hands anyway.
00:43:43And broke?
00:43:45Single moms are my favorite kind of...
00:43:47A feisty one, huh?
00:43:51Just the way I like it.
00:44:07You sure this is the right location?
00:44:09The coordinates led us here, sir.
00:44:11The mayor will know where she is.
00:44:13This is perfect.
00:44:15The mayor's about to see his future son-in-law working right beside the great Alexander Miller.
00:44:20This couldn't be better.
00:44:20Well, then what are we waiting for?
00:44:22Let's go find the mayor.
00:44:24Yes, sir.
00:44:30Um, 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.
00:44:40Alexander Miller?
00:44:42It is an honor to meet you.
00:44:45We did not expect you to show up at this wedding celebration.
00:44:49Wait 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.
00:45:00Right?
00:45:00Oh, that old woman will now regret not marrying her daughter into the mayor's family.
00:45:06Can you believe that?
00:45:08That 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.
00:45:17Is 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 gonna teach that old hack...
00:45:29Oh!
00:45:30Oh!
00:45:32What did you just call her?
00:45:34That woman you just insulted is my mother.
00:45:38The CEO of the Phoenix Group.
00:45:40CEO 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.
00:46:08I want to meet this mayor myself.
00:46:10The audacity to treat Miss Miller and her daughter like this?
00:46:15Oh, I need to warn the mayor.
00:46:21Just the way I like it.
00:46:25I don't dare you talk to Miss Miller like that.
00:46:27Ah!
00:46:32Joe, is she wants a real man now, John?
00:46:34By the time I'm done with her, she won't be moving that wheelchair anymore.
00:46:37Your problem is with me, Sterling 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.
00:46:57Please, stop!
00:47:04Everyone, stop!
00:47:07What is it?
00:47:08Can't you see we're busy?
00:47:09That woman you're threatening, she...
00:47:11That woman you're threatening...
00:47:15She's nothing but an old widow.
00:47:20This is our town.
00:47:21We know what we're doing.
00:47:22Right, especially with Alexander's people on our side.
00:47:26The sky could fall right now, and I'm still going to have my fun with you.
00:47:30Yeah?
00:47:31Well, when it falls, you'll be the first one to crumble.
00:47:35This is Phoenix Group's turf, and I'm Sean Parker's right-hand man.
00:47:40Your 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.
00:47:47Why don't you just make the call?
00:47:50Then we'll see how untouchable you really are.
00:47:54What'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.
00:48:03Let her make the call.
00:48:05I want to see who this pathetic widow runs to for help.
00:48:09Go ahead.
00:48:10Show us these powerful connections of yours.
00:48:14Stop!
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!
00:48:23You 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, can't even form a sentence?
00:48:38What, do you think this nobody's going to call the Alexander Miller?
00:48:42What 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.
00:48:59Who's this?
00:49:10Mother?
00:49:17I can't believe they do this.
00:49:19Look, Mom, I got this.
00:49:21Don't worry, don't worry.
00:49:22I'm gonna handle this, okay?
00:49:22I know exactly what to do.
00:49:27So, 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.
00:49:38Sean is your boyfriend, huh?
00:49:39Are you deaf or dumb?
00:49:41And how dare you refer to Sean by his first name?
00:49:44He 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?
00:50:00You wanna talk to Mike Hanson?
00:50:06How 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.
00:50:16Why would I be scared of some loser this hag called?
00:50:19Who are you?
00:50:20How the hell do you know my name?
00:50:29The signals are always bad here.
00:50:30We need to get to my mother in five minutes.
00:50:32Let's go.
00:50:32Move.
00:50:32Come on.
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.
00:50:49Mike 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?
00:51:06He's a spineless coward who can't even talk to me, let alone touch me.
00:51:10Stay away from her.
00:51:27That's right.
00:51:28Keep your lesson.
00:51:29It came from over there.
00:51:58Let's go.
00:52:03The mayor's family is finished.
00:52:14Shame.
00:52:16Should have been a kill shot.
00:52:20You just burnt your last bridge.
00:52:22You will regret this.
00:52:24I'm just punishing a couple troublemakers.
00:52:26Is that a crime?
00:52:30Now.
00:52:31It's just you and me.
00:52:33Don't worry.
00:52:34I can treat you better than John ever could.
00:52:36Do you have another nightmare?
00:52:52Yeah.
00:52:52I'm sorry, sweetheart.
00:52:55You know I will always be here to protect you, right?
00:53:02I'm so sorry you have to go through that.
00:53:04Mom, this time, I'll protect you.
00:53:10I'll protect you.
00:53:12Mom, it'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.
00:53:37Don't hurt my mom.
00:53:38Let her go and I'll marry Gregory, I swear.
00:53:42Well, that's better.
00:53:45Ew.
00:53:45Ugh.
00:53:46You've had your fun.
00:53:56Wrap it up.
00:53:58Such a shame, hmm?
00:54:00I was just getting started.
00:54:02When I'm done with you, you're going to regret you were ever born.
00:54:06Still making threats?
00:54:08An old hag like you should be grateful I even want to touch you.
00:54:11If Britney hadn't interrupted, we'd be having some real fun right now.
00:54:19Having fun with who?
00:54:38Who is he?
00:54:39That's some entrance.
00:54:41Look at those clothes.
00:54:42Must be connected to the mayor.
00:54:46I'm a sweetheart.
00:54:57Mom.
00:54:59Is...
00:54:59Is that really Miss Miller?
00:55:02You're at quit the entourage, baby.
00:55:05All this backup, just your little knee?
00:55:07Britney, you don't understand.
00:55:09This is, uh...
00:55:11Alexander Miller.
00:55:12I didn't think you'd come here yourself.
00:55:14Alexander who?
00:55:16Alexander Miller?
00:55:18That's Alexander Miller?
00:55:20Miss Miller's son?
00:55:21He's even dreamier in person.
00:55:32Sir, that woman is delusional.
00:55:35She claims she's your mother, the CEO of Phoenix School.
00:55:38Sir, it's my son's wedding today.
00:55:40We would be honored if you could attend the reception after you meet with the real Miss Miller.
00:55:47It's an honor to meet you, sir.
00:55:49I'm Sean's girlfriend, the mayor's daughter.
00:55:52You can call me Britney.
00:55:53If you need anything in this town, my family is at your service.
00:55:57Britney, shut up.
00:56:02What?
00:56:03It's not every day you meet the Alexander Miller.
00:56:06Also, think about it.
00:56:08If Miss Miller comes to my brother's wedding party, too, we'll be the talk of the town.
00:56:13If you want to invite my mother to your party, 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 it.
00:56:21There's no need for that.
00:56:24My mother is here right now.
00:56:31Where is she?
00:56:36Sir, are you playing some kind of trick on us?
00:56:40I don't see Miss Miller anywhere.
00:56:42I would certainly recognize her if she was in my town.
00:56:45Well, of course you would.
00:56:46Nothing happens here without the mayor knowing about it.
00:56:49Are you suggesting I wouldn't recognize my own mother?
00:56:56If what you're saying is true, when did she come to our town?
00:57:00Fifteen 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?
00:57:10That's not possible.
00:57:11I'm so sorry it took so long, Mother.
00:57:23Come here, my son.
00:57:26You've gotten so old.
00:57:29I missed you.
00:57:32You're a beautiful man now.
00:57:34Phoenix Group CEO?
00:57:44Impossible.
00:57:50She's really Miss Miller?
00:57:52Phoenix Group CEO?
00:57:54There has to be some mistake.
00:57:57She's nothing but a filthy woman who works for the orphanage.
00:58:00Miss Miller, please excuse my girlfriend's disgraceful behavior.
00:58:13I take full responsibility.
00:58:16Punish me as you see fit.
00:58:17Our adoptive mother is the famous Miss Miller?
00:58:24What have we done?
00:58:25What a moment, Mother.
00:58:30Are you Grace?
00:58:33Take care, Mother.
00:58:37Let me handle this.
00:58:41Now it's time for you all to explain yourselves.
00:58:50This is all a misunderstanding.
00:58:52Apologize to my mother.
00:58:58Now!
00:59:02Miss Miller, I beg of you.
00:59:04I'm sorry.
00:59:06I'm so, so sorry.
00:59:07You're only apologizing now because you know who I am.
00:59:11As I said,
00:59:13you would regret being born.
00:59:15Guards,
00:59:16get him out of my sight.
00:59:17Make sure I never see his face in the city again.
00:59:20John, if that's the real Miss Miller,
00:59:26then who did you invite to my birthday dinner?
00:59:29Tell her.
00:59:30Tell her she's never really met me.
00:59:32Tell her that I'm the real CEO of Phoenix Group.
00:59:34You thought you actually deserved to see the real Miss Miller?
00:59:45It was just some employee that I paid to pretend.
00:59:48I didn't think you'd be stupid enough to not notice.
00:59:51And now, look at the trouble you've caused.
00:59:56Miss Miller,
00:59:57this worthless girl has caused nothing but trouble.
01:00:00I'll kill her myself if you'll forgive me.
01:00:02Someone like you
01:00:04doesn't even deserve to work at the Phoenix Group.
01:00:07Remove him!
01:00:13Miss Miller,
01:00:14we were wrong.
01:00:17We'll never do anything like this again.
01:00:20Please, have mercy.
01:00:23Forgive us just this once.
01:00:25You all tortured people for years.
01:00:29If I was to forgive you,
01:00:31you would go on and continue to hurt innocent people.
01:00:35Take them away.
01:00:36Deal with them accordingly.
01:00:38Make them away!
01:00:39Wait, what?
01:00:40No, I...
01:00:41No!
01:00:48Where do you think you're going?
01:00:50I am not done with you two.
01:00:55What are you planning on doing with these two?
01:00:57You two wanted this house so badly.
01:01:00Burn it down!
01:01:02You don't deserve it.
01:01:03You heard my mother.
01:01:04Burn it down.
01:01:05Now!
01:01:06Yes, sir!
01:01:25Mother!
01:01:35Mother!
01:01:36Mother, please!
01:01:38For your children, Anna!
01:01:39All these years in seclusion,
01:01:52I gave you everything,
01:01:54and yet all you wanted was for me to die?
01:01:57You've really shown your true colors.
01:02:00And you know what?
01:02:01Now you never have to call me mother again.
01:02:04And you?
01:02:11You're not off the hook.
01:02:13I'll deal with you later.
01:02:16Yes, Miss Mother.
01:02:22My dear,
01:02:24somebody very special I want to introduce you to.
01:02:27Grace,
01:02:28this is my son, Alexander.
01:02:30It's an honor to meet you, sir.
01:02:32Please.
01:02:34You're my sister, now.
01:02:35There's no need for formalities.
01:02:37Mother,
01:02:38arrange a welcome banquet for you
01:02:39at the Cloud Peak Restaurant.
01:02:41What better occasion
01:02:43to introduce my daughter
01:02:46to the whole world,
01:02:47the future heiress of the Phoenix Group.
01:02:50It's a historical day
01:02:57for the Phoenix Group.
01:02:58The city must know
01:02:59our CEO is back.
01:03:02I'll send out the invitations.
01:03:11Is that your boyfriend?
01:03:12The one that was studying abroad?
01:03:15Yes.
01:03:15He promised me
01:03:17when he came back home
01:03:18that he would propose to me.
01:03:19I'm expecting him
01:03:22to pop the question
01:03:22any time now.
01:03:24That's wonderful.
01:03:26Take the call,
01:03:27but why don't you also invite him
01:03:28to the banquet tonight, okay?
01:03:30Okay.
01:03:33Hi.
01:03:36Cloud Peak Restaurant.
01:03:37Yeah, I can meet you there.
01:03:41There's, um,
01:03:42actually something important
01:03:43I need to tell you.
01:03:44I need to tell you.
01:04:03I need to tell you.
01:04:14Who's that beautiful young woman?
01:04:19She must be somewhat important to be at Phoenix Groove's banquet tonight.
01:04:27Nathan!
01:04:35Victoria?
01:04:36Long time no see, bestie.
01:04:38What's going on here?
01:04:46What does it look like?
01:04:48Best friend and I are together now.
01:04:53But you promised me you'd give me a ring when you came back.
01:04:58Oh, he did get a ring.
01:05:00Just not for you, loser.
01:05:05Shocked to see our son engaged to someone worthy of him.
01:05:08A proper match at last.
01:05:12Unlike you and your useless poor mother who can't possibly help him in his career.
01:05:18That's right.
01:05:19My mother's a secretary at Phoenix Groove.
01:05:22And she got Nathan the regional manager position at the company.
01:05:25Things change when you have the right connections.
01:05:29Isn't that right, sweetie?
01:05:30So that's why you chose my best friend over me?
01:05:35How could you both do this to me?
01:05:38Shut your mouth.
01:05:42Oh, honey.
01:05:44Save yourself the humiliation and leave.
01:05:47You don't belong here.
01:05:48Everything's set.
01:05:59City's most powerful leader here to meet Grace.
01:06:01Grace deserves this moment.
01:06:18After tonight, everyone will know that she's the heiress of the Phoenix Groove.
01:06:22Wait, what?
01:06:30Someone's causing trouble to my sister.
01:06:35Did you honestly think you could compete with me?
01:06:38You're just the daughter of some poor, crazy woman who can't even walk.
01:06:44And that dress.
01:06:46What'd you do?
01:06:47Steal it?
01:06:49Trash like you could never afford a dress like that.
01:06:51You probably borrowed it to pretend she's not poor.
01:06:55Just like her mother, pretending to be someone she's not.
01:06:58Let me return it to whatever store you stole it from.
01:07:00Mama.
01:07:19Don't worry, sweetheart.
01:07:21Your mother will always protect you now, okay?
01:07:30How dare you throw wine on my future daughter-in-law?
01:07:35How disgusting.
01:07:37This is why poor people like her have no business at events like this.
01:07:41And who might you be?
01:07:42I'm Nathan's father.
01:07:44Bill Carter.
01:07:45And I am his mother, Helen.
01:07:47So your son is the young man that my daughter was interested in?
01:07:54Just as I suspect.
01:07:56He's not worthy of my daughter.
01:07:58Who are you to talk down to my son like that?
01:08:02Our son is the perfect match any girl could hope for.
01:08:06Oh, really?
01:08:18The three heirs of the largest corporation?
01:08:21Only Phoenix Group is above them.
01:08:23What are they doing here?
01:08:24I'm James Bryant from the Sterling International Group.
01:08:31It's an honor to meet you, Grace.
01:08:33Grace, would you be honored to meet me at the dinner bar sometimes?
01:08:37I would love to take your travel with me when you can.
01:08:40My schedule is completely open.
01:08:42I, sweetheart.
01:08:44Don't be afraid.
01:08:45You really do deserve someone better.
01:08:50Grace, these are some of the finest young men in the city.
01:08:53And if none of them are to your desire, they're CEOs, they're entrepreneurs, and they're architects.
01:08:59You're going to meet you.
01:09:01What's going on?
01:09:03Why are all these rich men surrounding trash like you?
01:09:06You pathetic whore!
01:09:07Since when do you know people with real money?
01:09:09You manipulative little slut!
01:09:13What other secrets are you hiding?
01:09:16You think you're good enough to touch my sister?
01:09:23Did you just say sister?
01:09:27I thought you said she was an orphan!
01:09:30How can she be Alexander's sister?
01:09:34Alexander, surely there's been some sort of mistake.
01:09:37And who exactly do you think you are to question me?
01:09:42Alexander, you must be confused.
01:09:46Grace is nothing but a worthless orphan.
01:09:50It's true.
01:09:51She's nothing but trash.
01:09:55She's garbage!
01:09:56Nothing but garbage!
01:10:04Who?
01:10:05Who are you?
01:10:07Since you're so desperate to find out who my daughter is,
01:10:14you, you'll find out soon enough.
01:10:18And you!
01:10:19You will see exactly what you threw away.
01:10:24Ladies and gentlemen,
01:10:26please welcome the CEO of Phoenix Group,
01:10:29Ms. Miller!
01:10:30She, she, she, she can't be!
01:10:56The CEO of Phoenix Group.
01:11:06Thank you all for coming this evening.
01:11:09During my absence, I worked the hardest, most low-paying job.
01:11:15I wanted to understand the struggle of the less fortunate.
01:11:18And what I ended up finding was something unexpected.
01:11:21I found a daughter with a heart of gold.
01:11:24Tonight, I am proud to introduce the future heiress of the Phoenix Group.
01:11:31You worthless bitch, this is all your fault!
01:11:35You made me betray Grace.
01:11:38Don't blame me because you threw away someone important.
01:11:42Grace, please.
01:11:44I never cared about her.
01:11:47I always loved you.
01:11:48Just give me another chance.
01:11:50I'll prove myself worthy.
01:11:52Alexander.
01:11:53Your sister is both kind and wise.
01:12:01You need to trust that she'll do the right thing.
01:12:04Grace, Victoria deceived us all.
01:12:07Our son truly cares for you.
01:12:09Give him one more chance.
01:12:10Yes, Grace.
01:12:11You and Nathan have history.
01:12:12If you become our daughter-in-law,
01:12:14we'll change the world.
01:12:15We'll change the world.
01:12:16We'll change the world.
01:12:17We'll change the world.
01:12:18We'll change the world.
01:12:19We'll change the world.
01:12:20Our daughter-in-law will treat you like our own.
01:12:23When you thought my mom and I were nothing,
01:12:26you treated us like dirt.
01:12:28And then you stood by and watched while Nathan betrayed me
01:12:33and humiliated my mother.
01:12:34Grace, I was wrong.
01:12:36I mean, even my parents see it now.
01:12:38It will never, ever happen again, I swear.
01:12:42You're only sorry because of who I am now.
01:12:45Yes, I once had feelings for you.
01:12:49But that's over.
01:12:51I never want to see you again.
01:12:55You think you're above me now?
01:13:02Pay me $100 million or else everyone finds out how you really
01:13:07became the Phoenix Group heiress.
01:13:10By sleeping with your own adoptive brother.
01:13:17How dare you?
01:13:19That's a lie.
01:13:20Truth doesn't matter.
01:13:22My mother is a PR manager at Phoenix Group.
01:13:25She can forge all the proof we need.
01:13:27The press will eat it up.
01:13:29And I'll back every word of it.
01:13:32After all, I am regional manager of Phoenix Group.
01:13:36Just pay us the money.
01:13:37The Phoenix Group has the money.
01:13:39Or watch your reputation crumble.
01:13:42Is your mother's name Sarah Bell?
01:13:45She's the PR manager for Phoenix Group, right?
01:13:48So what old hag?
01:13:51Oh, wow.
01:13:52She clearly didn't know how to teach you manners.
01:13:56So I guess she's fired.
01:13:59What?
01:14:00You can't do that!
01:14:02You and your two families can take your stuff and get
01:14:06out of the city.
01:14:07You're going to have a very hard time finding any work here.
01:14:13Please have mercy on my son.
01:14:16He's a foolish boy.
01:14:18He doesn't know what he's doing.
01:14:21Take them away.
01:14:22I do not want to see them in the city again.
01:14:27Yes, Miss Miller.
01:14:30Wait.
01:14:32No, no.
01:14:32Don't touch me.
01:14:33No.
01:14:33No.
01:14:34No.
01:14:34No.
01:14:35No.
01:14:35No.
01:14:36No.
01:14:40Sweetheart, don't let his cruelty spoil this evening.
01:14:44This moment, it is yours.
01:14:47They can't hurt me anymore, Mom.
01:14:49Not with you by my side.
01:14:52My sweet daughter.
01:14:54You stuck by me when I was sick.
01:14:58And I almost died.
01:14:59And you never gave up on me.
01:15:02And you gave me hope and strength.
01:15:05You gave me so much more.
01:15:08You gave me love when I thought I would never know what that would feel like.
01:15:12And you rescued me and you gave me a family.
01:15:18Tonight, I want everyone to see who you really are.
01:15:23You're kind, compassionate, brilliant, unbreakable.
01:15:28And I mean no one will ever speak down to you again.
01:15:33I don't need the world's approval, Mom.
01:15:35I have everything I could ever want right here.
01:15:38You're my sweet daughter.
01:15:44Ladies and gentlemen, I have a very important announcement to make.
01:15:50Not only will my mother be coming back.
01:15:53As the CEO, I'm proud to announce as well.
01:15:57But my sister, Grace, will be joining our team at the Phoenix Group.
01:16:02As the youngest billionaire heiress.
01:16:21Grace to the Miller family.
