00:00:00Sir, our stock is being shorted aggressively. We're about to hit the limit down.

00:00:10What the hell is going on here?

00:00:13Half of you came from major investment banks.

00:00:16Our stock is about to crash, and you're telling me there's nothing we can do.

00:00:21Sir, this is a coordinated attack from multiple investment funds.

00:00:25They're shorting us simultaneously. There is nothing we can do.

00:00:29Sir, what are our next steps?

00:00:35Well, looks like Shepard Group might be bankrupt by lunch time.

00:00:45Hey, this is a private meeting.

00:00:46Mr. Jason, excuse me ma'am. Could you hold on our cleaning for just a couple of minutes?

00:00:50Mr. Shepard, building a public company in just five years? That's impressive.

00:00:57But losing your cool over a little market turbulence? That seems out of character for you.

00:01:05Do I know you?

00:01:09Wait, what are you doing?

00:01:12What are you doing?

00:01:13You can't do this, you're just a cleaner.

00:01:15Don't be messing with our company funds.

00:01:18This is incredible.

00:01:20What's going on?

00:01:22The shorting attempt.

00:01:23It's failing.

00:01:24The price is holding.

00:01:27Plus, our stock price is reaching today's opening value.

00:01:30We met before.

00:01:31They're still cleaning to do Mr. Shepard Act.

00:01:33Hold on.

00:01:34Tell me.

00:01:35How could I ever repay you for this?

00:01:36If the opportunity ever arises, you could give your next contract for construction to Harrison Group.

00:01:51Jason?

00:01:52Can we have five now?

00:01:53What are you doing?

00:01:54Mr. Yates?

00:01:55What, only two bodyguards this time?

00:01:56You're not going soft on me, are you?

00:01:57No, ma'am, I just thought you might like discreet today.

00:01:58Now, listen, everyone is waiting in New York for you to claim your inheritance as CEO of the Lewis Group.

00:02:12Mr. Yates, you know that I'm just going smart and so on.

00:02:16You're not going soft on me, are you?

00:02:17No, ma'am.

00:02:18I just thought you might like discreet today.

00:02:20Now, listen, everyone is waiting in New York for you to claim your inheritance as CEO of the Lewis Group.

00:02:25Mr. Yates, you know the law enforcement.

00:02:27My investigations here aren't finished.

00:02:30Ma'am, I still don't understand

00:02:31why you've kept your identity a secret

00:02:33and why you've married this Ben Harrison fellow.

00:02:35Look, today is Ben's birthday.

00:02:38Anything we need to discuss, we can do it some other time.

00:02:41Ma'am, it really is time for you to accept your inheritance.

00:02:45Because what I want is a simple life with Ben.

00:02:50Ma'am, at least do me a favor

00:02:54and let Toby walk you up to the house, for my sake.

00:03:06Divorce papers, sign it.

00:03:16Why?

00:03:17You are not worthy of my son anymore.

00:03:19The Harrison Group is practically a local celebrity now,

00:03:22especially since it's landed a $100 million contract

00:03:26with the Shepherd Group.

00:03:27And you, you're just a cleaner.

00:03:31The truth is, Laura, I've wanted a divorce

00:03:33for a very long time.

00:03:35I need a wife who reflects my status.

00:03:37I secured that $100 million contract.

00:03:41You, a cleaning woman, handing out million dollar deals.

00:03:46Don't make me laugh.

00:03:50I did.

00:03:51It was my present to Ben for his birthday.

00:03:54I was the one who got Brian Harrison to give Ben that deal.

00:03:58What are you doing here?

00:04:00Clearly, Ben has found himself a woman more suitable

00:04:02for the Harrison family.

00:04:03Amber's family is practically local royalty.

00:04:07Local royalty?

00:04:09A small town rich person is royalty.

00:04:11And what qualifications do you have to judge, Ms. Cleaner?

00:04:14Your resume boasts supermarket cashier

00:04:16and dinner waitress alongside janitor, doesn't it?

00:04:20Ben?

00:04:23What's going on?

00:04:24Is this why you want a divorce?

00:04:26Because of her?

00:04:27Oh, please.

00:04:28I've spent years building Harrison Group.

00:04:31You're still a cleaner.

00:04:32We just grew apart, that's all.

00:04:34No.

00:04:35No, I won't sign any agreement, Ben.

00:04:45I won't sign.

00:04:49Money is a motivator, isn't it?

00:04:51Ben.

00:04:52All right.

00:04:54Here, $100,000.

00:04:56Open up a small shop or something like that.

00:04:59$100,000?

00:05:01I was the one that helped you make Harrison Group

00:05:05what it is today.

00:05:06Do you have any idea how much money I've brought in for you?

00:05:09Don't be ridiculous.

00:05:11You've never done anything for Ben's success.

00:05:14This is our active charity tool.

00:05:16Here, $1,000,000, take this.

00:05:19You just want more money, don't you?

00:05:21Just leave and never see Ben again.

00:05:25I never expected my three years of devotion

00:05:29to end like this since none of you respect me.

00:05:35A cleaning lady, threatening us.

00:05:38I'm so scared.

00:05:40Just leave.

00:05:41You already make this house stink.

00:05:50Thank God she's gone.

00:05:51Go to written store.

00:05:56Sir?

00:05:57Laura Lewis's information.

00:06:02She's Ben Harrison's wife.

00:06:05No wonder why she wants to part with him.

00:06:07Actually, sir, Ben Harrison just divorced her.

00:06:10Divorce her?

00:06:13Wait a minute.

00:06:15Don't you remember?

00:06:16She's the one who helped us with the Smith contract

00:06:19three years ago.

00:06:21Yeah.

00:06:22She saved our hiding, though.

00:06:23Remember?

00:06:25Why would Ben Harrison dump someone who just got him

00:06:27a $100,000,000 contract?

00:06:28I don't know.

00:06:32Let's get to the vinyl news.

00:06:36Hey, what are you doing?

00:06:38Let go of me.

00:06:39You attacked Amber.

00:06:41Apologize this instant.

00:06:45Stealing from the Harrisons.

00:06:47We gave you a generous divorce settlement.

00:06:49You refused it.

00:06:50And now you're stealing.

00:06:52She couldn't afford it.

00:06:54You're a thief.

00:07:01That's mine.

00:07:02Give it back.

00:07:03Wait.

00:07:03That's enough.

00:07:04I want to say thank you properly for saving Shepherd Group.

00:07:11It's really no worries, Mr. Shepherd, but I'm just going

00:07:16through a divorce.

00:07:18You see, it's who are you, Laura's new squeeze?

00:07:22Excuse me.

00:07:23Do you know who I am?

00:07:24Is this true?

00:07:25You hooked up with this man while you were married to my son?

00:07:27Shame on you!

00:07:29Mr. Shepherd, I...

00:07:30For your information, my name is Brian Shepherd.

00:07:33I'm CEO of the Shepherd Group.

00:07:35Oh, please.

00:07:36A big shot like Brian Shepherd wouldn't be caught dead with a cleaner.

00:07:40You really don't recognize him, do you, Amber?

00:07:43That's really interesting, considering I thought you were the one

00:07:46that secured that contract for Ben.

00:07:48That's ridiculous.

00:07:49He doesn't look like that.

00:07:51My ring.

00:07:53Jason, get it back to Mr. Davis.

00:07:54Hey, what are you doing?

00:07:56Laura, let's get you out of here, now.

00:08:01Hold on a minute, Laura.

00:08:03Who the heck is this man or have you been sneaking around?

00:08:06It's a lie, ma'am.

00:08:08This is none of your business.

00:08:09All rabbed dead bodies.

00:08:11You're not going anywhere until I tell you,

00:08:12tell us what's going on.

00:08:14We are the Harrisons.

00:08:15You can't just waltz in here and take her.

00:08:18Harrison, compared to the Shepherd Group, you're nobody.

00:08:20Now go back.

00:08:21What?

00:08:23Are you saying that is Brian Shepherd?

00:08:24That's a lie.

00:08:25Don't you dare walk away from me, Laura.

00:08:27You come back here and explain yourself.

00:08:29Don't you take another step towards my son, Laura.

00:08:34Laura, does Ben even know you were the one

00:08:37who secured the 100 million deal?

00:08:40Let's just say that Ben underestimated me.

00:08:44I don't feel good about going through the signing event.

00:08:48After how they treated you, maybe we should cancel it?

00:08:51No, no, the event will proceed.

00:08:56Besides, I'll be there.

00:09:01There's a lot that I don't know about you, Laura.

00:09:05Who are you, truly?

00:09:07You'll find out, Mr. Shepherd.

00:09:10Um, can you pull up over here, please?

00:09:16Mr. Yates, I want you to call all of the Lewis Group's business partners,

00:09:22and we're going to have a meeting, an investment meeting, one week from today.

00:09:27Make sure everyone is there.

00:09:32Because after that meeting, I'm going to reclaim my place as the CEO of Lewis Group.

00:09:39Oh, excellent, Ms. Lewis.

00:09:40I'll start making arrangements tomorrow.

00:09:43Ben Harrison, you're going to know exactly what it feels like to lose everything.

00:09:51After this ceremony, the Harrison family will finally be considered Maplewood City royalty.

00:10:02Only after then, my darling, we can get married.

00:10:06Laura, what are you doing here?

00:10:08Security?

00:10:09Get that woman out of here.

00:10:11We don't need cleaners at this event.

00:10:13Why wouldn't I be here?

00:10:14This is a business event, after all.

00:10:17Business?

00:10:18You wouldn't know business if I hit you on the head.

00:10:21A fancy dress doesn't make you high society, honey.

00:10:24Just get out.

00:10:25Don't tell me you've come looking for another rich man to play mistress for.

00:10:28You should have taken my $100,000 offer.

00:10:30Oh, Ben, do you really think that you can sign this contract without me?

00:10:35Oh, Laura, this is really important for me.

00:10:38Do not ruin this, okay?

00:10:39You don't belong here.

00:10:41Just get out!

00:10:43That's what you get.

00:10:53This contract is mine, to give or take away as I see fit.

00:10:59Don't be ridiculous, this is insane!

00:11:02Who do you think you are?

00:11:03Yeah, put that down.

00:11:04You have no idea what you're doing.

00:11:06Security?

00:11:07She's lost a mind!

00:11:09This is a disaster!

00:11:11Ben, this contract was supposed to be my birthday present to you, but since you clearly

00:11:18don't deserve it...

00:11:20You really think ripping up that contract is gonna help?

00:11:22You're so silly, Laura.

00:11:27Oh, please, honey.

00:11:28You couldn't explain business to a cleaning lady.

00:11:29Security?

00:11:30Get this woman out of here before she makes another mess.

00:11:32I was the one that started this deal with the Shepherds.

00:11:39And after careful consideration, I don't think the Harrison family is worthy of working with the Shepherds.

00:11:46You really think that the Shepard group and I could be torn up by something that you've done?

00:11:53You have no authority here.

00:11:54Of course she has the authority.

00:11:55Of course she has the authority.

00:12:02That's the man that Laura went with the other day.

00:12:03What is he doing here?

00:12:04Mr. Shepard?

00:12:05How does he know her?

00:12:06Is that really Brian Shepard?

00:12:07Laura, are you alright?

00:12:08Uh, Mr. Shepard, I can assure you, I don't even know what you're doing here.

00:12:09You're working with the Shepard.

00:12:10You're working with the Shepards.

00:12:11You really think that the Shepard group and I could be torn up by something that you've

00:12:12done?

00:12:13You have no authority here.

00:12:14Of course she has the authority.

00:12:15That's the man that Laura went with the other day.

00:12:16What is he doing here?

00:12:17Mr. Shepard?

00:12:18How does he know her?

00:12:19Is that really Brian Shepard?

00:12:20Laura, are you alright?

00:12:34Uh, Mr. Shepard, I can assure you, I don't even know this woman.

00:12:38There must be some sort of misunderstanding.

00:12:39There's no misunderstanding here, Mr. Harrison.

00:12:42This contract with Shepard group is officially terminated.

00:12:46Effective immediately.

00:12:49Wait a minute.

00:12:50This contract?

00:12:51I thought you said you got it.

00:12:53It's her.

00:12:54She ruined the contract.

00:12:55You are his mistress, aren't you?

00:12:57An affair?

00:12:58She had an affair with that man behind my son's back?

00:13:03Mom, please.

00:13:04It's okay.

00:13:05This man is-

00:13:06Don't touch me!

00:13:07That woman destroyed your career in front of everyone, has an affair and you just stand

00:13:12there?

00:13:13You're a disgrace.

00:13:14An adulterer.

00:13:15You deserve to be-

00:13:16Shut up!

00:13:19Mr. Shepard, I apologize for this whole mess, but I can assure you, this woman has tricked

00:13:24you.

00:13:25Tricked?

00:13:26Why don't you answer a question yourself then?

00:13:31What was my name before we got married?

00:13:34Laura Lewis, right?

00:13:36Lewis group?

00:13:37The financial giants?

00:13:39There's no way a Lewis is connected to this.

00:13:43That's crazy.

00:13:45There's no way you're related to the Lewis family name.

00:13:48That's absurd.

00:13:49It's-

00:13:50It's-

00:13:51It's-

00:13:52It's absurd!

00:13:53A high society heirs wouldn't waste their time in Maplewood!

00:13:57Yeah.

00:13:58Yeah, it's a lie.

00:13:59It's a lie.

00:14:00This woman was a waitress when I met her.

00:14:02In fact, I saved her from a robbery three years ago.

00:14:06She's nothing special.

00:14:07She only married me out of gratitude.

00:14:09I was just a waitress.

00:14:12How convenient for your story, Ben.

00:14:14First time I met her, she was in need of waitress at the diner.

00:14:17Okay, listen up, everybody.

00:14:19When I met her, I'd only just started my business.

00:14:22Mm-hmm.

00:14:23Now look at me.

00:14:24I'm signing multi-million dollar contracts.

00:14:26And look at her.

00:14:27Still just a clear.

00:14:29Mr. Shepherd, that woman is my son's ex-wife.

00:14:33She's doing all this out of spite.

00:14:35She's lying, Mr. Shepherd.

00:14:37She's just a cleaning lady for your business, isn't she?

00:14:40Let's make something clear.

00:14:45I was the one behind Harrison Group's success.

00:14:49I used my resources to help my ex-husband, but all he saw me as was the maid.

00:14:55Don't lie.

00:14:56You were never good enough for Ben when you married him. Oops.

00:15:00That roof was built with lies.

00:15:03Kathy, you never respected me.

00:15:05And Ben?

00:15:06Dumping me the second you thought you were successful on your own.

00:15:10And the cheating.

00:15:12I think you're blaming the wrong person.

00:15:15You were not good enough for Ben then, and you're certainly not good enough for him now.

00:15:20If you'd prefer to believe a liar's story, then the truth, Kathy.

00:15:26Consider this my resignation from the Harrisons.

00:15:30From everything.

00:15:36Wait, wait, wait, Laura.

00:15:37You think you can just walk in here and, you know, ruin everything?

00:15:39And then just walk out like nothing happened?

00:15:41I don't think so.

00:15:42You're a cleaner.

00:15:43You're a cleaner that cleans toilets.

00:15:45Nobody cares about you.

00:15:47Cleaning toilets or not, at least I have my self-respect.

00:15:51I don't need a fancy title or a rich husband to feel important.

00:15:58I think there has been some sort of misunderstanding.

00:16:03I think all jobs are important, right, Mom?

00:16:06Ben, what are you doing?

00:16:08But I don't think that a janitor should have some sort of influence over a deal as big as this.

00:16:13A janitor.

00:16:14Well, why don't we ask Miss Smith exactly how she landed that collaboration with Shepard?

00:16:23You did claim to have been the one that secured the deal, weren't you, Miss Smith?

00:16:28Mr. Shepard, it's all a lie.

00:16:31This woman, Laura, she's just a gold digger trying to trick you.

00:16:35I... but, well...

00:16:38A lie, you say?

00:16:39Miss Smith, I believe you mentioned securing this contract for Harrison Group.

00:16:43But I don't recognize you.

00:16:45Is this true, Miss Smith?

00:16:48Miss Lewis has helped me on several occasions.

00:16:52This contract was my way of showing my appreciation.

00:16:56But the contract...

00:16:58I mean, Laura tore it up.

00:17:00So can't we just print another one and get this signing ceremony underway?

00:17:04Reprint it, Mr. Harrison.

00:17:07Perhaps you haven't been paying attention without Miss Lewis' involvement.

00:17:12I wouldn't even consider partnering with your company.

00:17:18Today, I want to make it clear.

00:17:21Shepard Group has no plans to partner with Harrison Group in the future.

00:17:28Miss Smith, you lied to us.

00:17:30You destroyed everything.

00:17:32What?

00:17:33No, it's a misunderstanding.

00:17:35I can explain.

00:17:36Lewis?

00:17:37Lewis Family Group?

00:17:39This can't be.

00:17:41Believe what you want, Ben.

00:17:43Lewis Group will be holding a massive investment meeting later this week.

00:17:48Three of our vice presidents will be here in Maplewood.

00:17:53And I'm sure you can ask them if you still have any doubts about who I am.

00:18:00Everyone, listen to me.

00:18:02Shepard Group will not be partnering with Harrison.

00:18:07A man who can keep his vows to his wife cannot be trusted to keep his word on the contract.

00:18:14The charade is over, Mr. Harrison.

00:18:16Everyone here deserves to see the truth.

00:18:21Miss Lewis, shall we take this conversation elsewhere?

00:18:31Help!

00:18:32Mom!

00:18:33Someone get a doctor!

00:18:34Mom!

00:18:35It seems your night has taken quite the turn, Mr. Shepard.

00:18:41Indeed.

00:18:42Perhaps it's best to leave them to it.

00:18:56What?

00:18:57What now?

00:18:58Mom, this is not all on me.

00:19:01Not on you?

00:19:02I was trying to help.

00:19:04She cheated on you with Shepard.

00:19:06Flaunted their affair.

00:19:08Exactly.

00:19:09And those dresses?

00:19:10Who could afford those on a janitor's salary?

00:19:13Miss Smith, how could you do this?

00:19:16We trusted you completely.

00:19:18No, no.

00:19:19I got Ben the deal.

00:19:21I had no idea Shepard would fall for Laura.

00:19:24She's a liar.

00:19:26Oh, stop it, Amber.

00:19:27You lied to us just as much as she did.

00:19:30Lied?

00:19:32You're on my side.

00:19:34And anyways, I have a plan.

00:19:36The Shepards are no one special.

00:19:37We can expose Laura in all her lies.

00:19:40Go national.

00:19:42We can make ourselves a household name.

00:19:46Now, if you'll excuse me, I have a very important phone call to you.

00:19:49Thank you so much for tonight, Mr. Shepard.

00:19:50Thank you as well for standing up for me.

00:19:51It's alright, Laura.

00:19:52You deserve the credit for all your hard work.

00:19:53Can I ask you something?

00:19:54Do you have any place to stay tonight?

00:19:55Maybe a hotel?

00:19:56Don't.

00:19:57Don't worry about me, Mr. Shepard.

00:19:58I'll be fine.

00:19:59Excuse me.

00:20:00You can just drop me off.

00:20:01Actually, Laura.

00:20:02Actually, Laura.

00:20:03There is something else.

00:20:04Would you consider going out for dinner sometime?

00:20:05Just casually, of course.

00:20:06Mr. Shepard, are you asking me out?

00:20:07Maybe a hotel?

00:20:09Don't worry about me, Mr. Shepard. I'll be fine.

00:20:13Excuse me, you can just drop me off.

00:20:15Actually, Laura, actually.

00:20:17Laura, there is something else.

00:20:19Would you consider to go out for dinner sometime?

00:20:21Just casually, of course.

00:20:23Mr. Shepard, are you asking me out?

00:20:27Please, call me Brian.

00:20:31And yes, technically you're single now.

00:20:35Yes, that may be true, but going out with a newly divorced ex-cleaner isn't exactly proper.

00:20:45Proper?

00:20:47Laura, I don't give a damn about appearances.

00:20:51Tonight, I saw your intelligence and your strength.

00:20:55Those are qualities I truly admire.

00:20:59So what do you say?

00:21:01Dinner?

00:21:03Just two people getting to know each other.

00:21:09I'm sorry, Mr. Shepard.

00:21:11I actually have another appointment tonight.

00:21:13So I can't get out.

00:21:15Wait, Laura. Just here is fine.

00:21:19Laura?

00:21:25Laura, who is it?

00:21:27Laura, wait!

00:21:29Jason, find out who owns that car.

00:21:33And do it fast.

00:21:41Ian Lewis, who is this?

00:21:43It's Amber Smith.

00:21:45Mr. Lewis?

00:21:47I'm sorry for the late call, but I believe I have some urgent information about your family.

00:21:51I don't know who you are, Ms. Smith.

00:21:53How did you get this number?

00:21:55Don't worry about that right now.

00:21:57I believe I know someone impersonating Laura Lewis.

00:22:01Someone I know very well.

00:22:03Impersonating my niece?

00:22:05And where is this fake Laura?

00:22:09Right here in Maplewood.

00:22:11And let me tell you, she's causing quite a scene.

00:22:15Well, what is she doing exactly?

00:22:19And more to the point, what do you want from me?

00:22:23In the next few days, the Lewis Group will hold an investment meeting, right?

00:22:29I want to meet with the Vice Presidents.

00:22:31All will be revealed then.

00:22:33Very well.

00:22:35I'll have my secretary arrange a meeting.

00:22:37But be warned, if this is a waste of my time, I...

00:22:41It won't be.

00:22:42Trust me, Mr. Lewis.

00:22:43Thank you, Mr.

00:22:45That little rascal, Laura.

00:22:54I wonder what she's up to now.

00:23:00That car belongs to Mr. Yeats.

00:23:02The Lewis family bubler.

00:23:04Oh.

00:23:06The Lewis family?

00:23:08That's interesting.

00:23:10Could she be connected to them somehow?

00:23:13I'm not sure.

00:23:17Brian!

00:23:18There you are.

00:23:19I've missed you.

00:23:20Chloe.

00:23:21What are you up to?

00:23:23Chloe.

00:23:24What are you doing here?

00:23:25What do you mean?

00:23:27Can't I visit the man I love?

00:23:29We ended things for a reason.

00:23:31It was just one teensy mistake.

00:23:34I was...

00:23:35I was a little bit tipsy.

00:23:36Doesn't everyone deserve a second chance?

00:23:38Teensy mistake, you said?

00:23:40You cheated on me.

00:23:43Is this your new fling?

00:23:47Ex-divorcey.

00:23:49Used a clean floor.

00:23:51It's quite the catch, you say.

00:23:53Look.

00:23:54My relationship with her is none of your business.

00:23:57And don't you dare talk about her like that.

00:24:00Please.

00:24:01An ex-cleaner turned social climber latching onto a wealthy businessman.

00:24:06It's a classic story.

00:24:07That's enough.

00:24:08I'll get the hell out of my office.

00:24:11You wanna be careful, Brian.

00:24:13Duke Industries still holds a lot of weight in Maplewood.

00:24:16If you want Shepard Group to stay afloat,

00:24:19you oughta be more careful.

00:24:24Seems like you've got more on your plate than Laura's secrets now.

00:24:27This is it.

00:24:34The Lewis Group vice presidents are on the top floor.

00:24:37Once I'm done speaking with them,

00:24:39I'll have Ben's company rolling in business investments.

00:24:42I'll go speak with them first, and then I'll introduce you.

00:24:46Well, well, well.

00:24:48Look who it is.

00:24:49What a surprise.

00:24:50Did Brian teach you already?

00:24:52That's none of your business.

00:24:56Now move aside, please.

00:24:57Laura?

00:24:58Just what do you think you're doing, you street rat?

00:25:01You really think you can just ruin my events again?

00:25:03Haven't you ruined my life enough?

00:25:04Don't you have any shame?

00:25:05If you'll excuse me, I have an important meeting to get to.

00:25:09Oh, the nurse.

00:25:11After everything you've done,

00:25:12you think you can just waltz in here and manipulate them too?

00:25:16Seriously?

00:25:17I think you need to reconsider exactly who's manipulating who here.

00:25:22Oh, that's gold.

00:25:23You really think that they're gonna let you in, Laura?

00:25:26Please.

00:25:27You're no one compared to me.

00:25:28You don't deserve to be here.

00:25:30The only ones who don't belong here are you three.

00:25:35And you, idiot.

00:25:37Believing every lie that she tells you.

00:25:39Wake up, Ben.

00:25:41Oh, Laura!

00:25:42Laura, come on.

00:25:43Why do you always pull this on me?

00:25:45I mean, seriously, can't you just let me enjoy one of my events for once?

00:25:49Well, I know what this is.

00:25:51So stupid.

00:25:53Oh, shut your trap.

00:25:55Amber spoke directly with the CEO.

00:25:57He invited her to meet with the VPs before the main meeting.

00:26:00Yeah, Amber got me a partnership with the Lewis Group.

00:26:04And unlike some people, I have a real invitation.

00:26:08Well, before you all start celebrating, why don't you take a look at this.

00:26:18Oh, that's rich.

00:26:19You may have Brian Shepard fooled, but you can't fool me.

00:26:22I spoke to Ian Lewis himself, CEO of Lewis Group.

00:26:26Speaking of Brian, where is he right now?

00:26:29You mean my uncle?

00:26:32Ian, don't be ridiculous.

00:26:34Ian Lewis personally gave me this invitation himself.

00:26:38And besides, this looks fake.

00:26:42She's a liar.

00:26:44This is a personal invitation from Mr. Yates himself.

00:26:49It grants me access to the VIP elevator, which leads straight to the Vice Presidential Suite.

00:26:54She's lying.

00:26:55They don't have a VIP elevator in this hotel.

00:27:02Is there a special elevator for VIPs in this hotel?

00:27:06Not that I know of.

00:27:08See?

00:27:09She's lying.

00:27:10There you have it, Laura.

00:27:11Even the hotel staff can spot a fake.

00:27:13Go on, get lost before things get worse.

00:27:19Here, take this one.

00:27:20Leave me to the Vice Presidents.

00:27:22You have no idea what you just did.

00:27:27There will be consequences.

00:27:31Besides, if you have this relationship with Ian Lewis that you claim to have,

00:27:37why don't you just ask him to get the two of them an invitation?

00:27:42Security! Security!

00:27:43We need this woman removed immediately.

00:27:44She is harassing me.

00:27:45We're done with your games, Laura.

00:27:47You're just a fraud.

00:27:48Ma'am, plays with me.

00:27:49What?

00:27:50Hold on!

00:27:52What?

00:27:54Brian Shepard?

00:27:56You think money buys you the right to walk all over people?

00:27:59Well, it doesn't.

00:28:00Yeah.

00:28:01Wasn't enough to kick us out of Maplewood, was it, huh?

00:28:03What other plans do you have to destroy this town?

00:28:06Get you out?

00:28:07After what you did to Laura, you had it coming.

00:28:10Don't play dumb.

00:28:11We know exactly what's been happening here.

00:28:13How long has this little affair been going on?

00:28:15You've been sleeping with her since she was married to my son.

00:28:19Hold on a second.

00:28:20An affair?

00:28:22You think Laura and I?

00:28:24You people are unbelievable.

00:28:25Mr. Carter, get down here ASAP.

00:28:26We have a situation.

00:28:27What, you think you can just boss the manager around now?

00:28:28Is that it?

00:28:29Well, stick around and watch you crash and burn.

00:28:30Miss Lewis, apologies for the delay.

00:28:31How can I help you this evening?

00:28:32Thank you, Mr. Carter, for getting down here so quickly.

00:28:33It seems there's a misunderstanding.

00:28:34These people don't think that I belong here.

00:28:35Well, Mr. Carter, I can assure you, this woman is a cleaner.

00:28:39A cleaner?

00:28:40Nonsense.

00:28:41I personally greeted Miss Lewis upon her arrival in Maplewood three years ago.

00:28:44Exactly.

00:28:45Lewis grew up in the middle of the night.

00:28:46You think you can just boss the manager around now?

00:28:47Is that it?

00:28:48Well, stick around and watch you crash and burn.

00:28:49Miss Lewis, apologies for the delay.

00:28:50How can I help you this evening?

00:28:51Thank you, Mr. Carter, for getting down here so quickly.

00:28:53It seems there's a misunderstanding.

00:28:54These people don't think that I belong here.

00:28:57Well, Mr. Carter, I can assure you, this woman is a cleaner.

00:28:59A cleaner?

00:29:00Nonsense.

00:29:01I personally greeted Miss Lewis upon her arrival in Maplewood three years ago.

00:29:03Lewis Group, my company, has some major investments planned here in Maplewood.

00:29:10I was just here investigating potential business opportunities.

00:29:14No, this woman doesn't know the difference between business and a hole in the ground.

00:29:18She's been this way since my son divorced her.

00:29:21She's insane.

00:29:22Actually, I met Laura three years ago at the coffee shop.

00:29:26She helped secure a profitable investment for Shepard Group.

00:29:30No.

00:29:31It's a lie.

00:29:32Mr. Shepard, she's tricking you too.

00:29:37You know, it's exhausting trying to argue with people who forget who helped them.

00:29:44Mr. Carter, would you mind showing me to the VIP elevator?

00:29:47Wait.

00:29:48Is that why you're covering for her?

00:29:49Huh?

00:29:50Because of the affair?

00:29:51Because she slept with you?

00:29:52Excuse me.

00:29:53Who are you?

00:29:54And how dare you speak to Miss Lewis that way?

00:29:56Enough of this.

00:29:57She's right there.

00:29:58That's enough.

00:29:59Have you embarrassed yourself enough?

00:30:00This is Lewis Group property.

00:30:02Behave or I'll call security.

00:30:04She doesn't even have a VIP entrance access.

00:30:07She shouldn't be here.

00:30:09Since you're having trouble understanding them, let me make it clear.

00:30:13This hotel is owned by the Lewis family.

00:30:17It's mine to come or go as I please.

00:30:22Thank you for stepping in, Brian.

00:30:27I owe you one.

00:30:29We'll talk about this later.

00:30:31Well, it seems that divorcing a powerful woman wasn't the best decision, Mr. Hevers.

00:30:44Come in!

00:30:47Excuse me, Vice Presidents.

00:30:49I'm Amber Smith, General Manager of the Lewis Group Maplewood Branch.

00:30:53I believe Ian Lewis told you about our meeting today?

00:30:56Maplewood Branch.

00:30:58Our records don't show any Maplewood Branch, Ms. Smith.

00:31:03Are you sure you haven't gotten something mixed up?

00:31:07Ian Lew- Mr. Lewis reassured me that today we would discuss, well, expansion plans.

00:31:16Oh, expansion plans?

00:31:19Ms. Smith?

00:31:20A decision like that wouldn't be taken without board approval.

00:31:23And frankly, we haven't heard anything about Maplewood Branch.

00:31:28But Ian Lewis assured me that-

00:31:31Ms. Smith, we have a very important guest arriving soon.

00:31:34Perhaps you'd like to schedule a follow-up meeting with one of our staff.

00:31:37Maybe I can stay for this guest and offer some local-

00:31:40Ms. Smith, we'd like you to leave.

00:31:42If you don't, we'll call security.

00:31:50Hey.

00:31:51Stop there.

00:31:52This elevator is a VIP only.

00:31:54Back, please.

00:31:55Of course.

00:31:56My apologies.

00:32:03Laura?

00:32:04Vice Presidents!

00:32:05It's so good to see all of you again.

00:32:10Ms. Lewis, it's been too long.

00:32:13Your return is a lifesaver, Ms. Lewis.

00:32:16The Lewis Group has floundered under your uncle's, well, shall we say, unconventional leadership.

00:32:22The board are begging you to come back, Ms. Lewis.

00:32:26Well, please sit.

00:32:29Yes, well, it is time for me to get my career back on track.

00:32:33We've got a meeting planned, a big one, in just a few days.

00:32:39Local powerhouses and smaller players, too.

00:32:43They'll all be there in one spot.

00:32:45Ms. Lewis, we met with an Amber Smith.

00:32:49Yes.

00:32:50She claimed your uncle appointed her general manager of a Maplewood branch for the Lewis Group.

00:32:57She said that, did she?

00:32:58Well, Ms. Smith is a liar.

00:33:00There is no Maplewood branch, at least not yet.

00:33:03She lied so blatantly.

00:33:05It was, it's unbelievable.

00:33:07Bob, don't worry.

00:33:08I found a much more suitable partner.

00:33:13Shepard Group.

00:33:14Shepard Group?

00:33:16Your rise to a public company has been impressive.

00:33:19Do you have anything to do with that?

00:33:22So, what happens now with this Amber Smith?

00:33:26Oh, don't worry about Amber.

00:33:31I've got plans for her.

00:33:35Ms. Lewis, consider this your official invitation to the legend from us.

00:33:44Cheers.

00:33:45Cheers.

00:33:55No, I'm not leaving.

00:33:56What are you talking about?

00:33:57No, come on.

00:33:58Wait!

00:33:59I'm Amber Smith.

00:34:00I'm the Lewis Group manager of Maplewood branch.

00:34:01What are you doing?

00:34:02These are my guests.

00:34:03Yeah, that's right.

00:34:04Tell them who we are.

00:34:05Yes, we were waiting for Ms. Smith.

00:34:09Lewis Group, Maplewood branch?

00:34:10No such thing, ma'am.

00:34:12And frankly, I'm not interested in your act.

00:34:14Of course.

00:34:15Laura!

00:34:16She's probably sleeping with the manager as well.

00:34:19That's how she gets away with everything.

00:34:21You underestimate her, Cathy.

00:34:23She's probably sleeping with all three vice presidents.

00:34:25No way a girl like her could get into a hotel like this.

00:34:29Careful with your words.

00:34:31Both of you.

00:34:32Accusations like that can get you in serious trouble.

00:34:35Look who can't even get into a meeting.

00:34:36Whilst I've secured three with all the vice presidents.

00:34:37And let's not forget the mystery guests that they're bringing to Maplewood.

00:34:38Looks like she used you and tossed you aside.

00:34:39Used me?

00:34:40Unlike some people.

00:34:41I don't mind being helpful.

00:34:42You're so stupid.

00:34:43She threw you away like yesterday's trash.

00:34:44Don't worry, Brian.

00:34:45You deserve better.

00:34:46And let's not forget.

00:34:47I'm the new Maplewood branch manager of Lewis Group.

00:34:48Appointed by the CEO of Lewis Group themselves.

00:34:49Ian Lewis.

00:34:50New branch manager, huh?

00:34:51Interesting.

00:34:52Laura Lewis?

00:34:53What are you doing here?

00:34:54Get out of here.

00:34:55You claim to be the mystery guest.

00:34:56Don't play games, Laura.

00:34:57What are you doing here?

00:34:58What are you doing here?

00:34:59What are you doing here?

00:35:00Get out of here.

00:35:01You claim to be the mystery guest.

00:35:02Don't play games, Laura.

00:35:03What are you doing here?

00:35:04I don't mind being helpful.

00:35:05You're so stupid.

00:35:06She threw you away like yesterday's trash.

00:35:07Don't worry, Brian.

00:35:08You deserve better.

00:35:09And let's not forget.

00:35:10I'm the new Maplewood branch manager of Lewis Group.

00:35:11Appointed by the CEO of Lewis Group themselves.

00:35:12Ian Lewis.

00:35:13New branch manager, huh?

00:35:14Interesting.

00:35:15Laura Lewis?

00:35:16What are you doing here?

00:35:17Get out of here!

00:35:18You claim to be the mystery guest.

00:35:21Don't play games, Laura.

00:35:22I was formally invited by Lewis Group themselves to the investment meeting.

00:35:26Only the top companies get those.

00:35:29Looks like you're all out of luck.

00:35:31Is that so?

00:35:32Well then, there seems to be a misunderstanding.

00:35:37You see, I'm not sure if you know Miss Smith, but Lewis Group is my company.

00:35:43And I decide who goes to the meetings.

00:35:48Escort them out.

00:35:49What?

00:35:50Their visit is over.

00:35:51Oh, come on.

00:35:52This way.

00:35:53Please.

00:35:54I'm not leaving.

00:35:55Come on.

00:35:56Move.

00:35:57We're not leaving again.

00:35:58Move.

00:35:59Oh, no, no, no.

00:36:00We're not going.

00:36:01Now.

00:36:02Okay, come on, come on.

00:36:03This isn't over, Laura.

00:36:04You'll see.

00:36:06Thanks for waiting, Ben.

00:36:09Laura, I'm glad you're okay.

00:36:13And thank you for defending me.

00:36:16I really appreciate it.

00:36:21Um, are you coming to the meeting?

00:36:25Yes, but it's gonna be tricky.

00:36:28Why?

00:36:29I'm sure that Shepard Group got an invitation.

00:36:37Yes, Laura.

00:36:40There's something you should know.

00:36:43Is this about Ben?

00:36:46Ben, because I can assure you that he won't cause any problems.

00:36:50He won't even get past security.

00:36:52Laura, it's not Ben.

00:36:56It's someone else.

00:36:59Someone's causing problems for Shepard Group?

00:37:04Yes.

00:37:06Her name is Chloe Duke.

00:37:09She is daughter of the Duke family.

00:37:13She's my ex-fiancee.

00:37:16And, uh, let's say things didn't end so well between us.

00:37:21And, let's just say we didn't end things so well.

00:37:28And, for some reason, she's having a hard time moving on.

00:37:33And, you think that she's gonna cause problems at the meeting?

00:37:40For, out of jealousy?

00:37:47There's a possibility.

00:37:49She's kind of jealous.

00:37:51Well, all the more reason for you to be there.

00:37:56So, I'll be there too.

00:38:01It's-

00:38:02Laura.

00:38:03Would you consider being a guest at the meeting?

00:38:07What?

00:38:08Are you worried that this Chloe's gonna cause problems for me too?

00:38:12Maybe a little.

00:38:14But, mostly, I wanna show them we're a team.

00:38:18Well, it's a very kind offer, Mr. Shepard.

00:38:23Laura.

00:38:25I don't care about your best.

00:38:31I just want to be by your side.

00:38:33I think I'm falling for you.

00:38:39Ryan.

00:38:45I-I appreciate your honesty.

00:38:48And, right now, I-I'm just not-I-I just don't really have romance on my mind right now.

00:38:55Just with-with everything going on, and going on and-

00:38:59It's okay.

00:39:01I just want to be upfront.

00:39:04And if Chloe tries anything, you won't face her alone.

00:39:08There's just one thing I do need.

00:39:14What is it?

00:39:16What is it?

00:39:18A formal dress.

00:39:31Uh, security!

00:39:33She doesn't belong here.

00:39:34This is a private store.

00:39:36Excuse me.

00:39:37We need some assistance.

00:39:39I'm looking for a very particular dress.

00:39:44Wow.

00:39:45It's beautiful.

00:39:47It is.

00:39:48I'll try this one on.

00:39:49Uh, don't bother with her.

00:39:51She can't afford anything here.

00:39:53She's just a cleaner.

00:39:54She doesn't deserve to shop here.

00:39:56She has no money.

00:39:59Yeah, exactly.

00:40:00I mean, what are you doing here?

00:40:01Can't you just leave me alone?

00:40:03I wouldn't bat an eyelash if you just disappeared.

00:40:06I'm here for retail therapy.

00:40:08Oh, please.

00:40:10This store's for the A-list only.

00:40:12Not some cheapskate like you.

00:40:14This is the woman who barged into my marriage.

00:40:17Hey!

00:40:18Show some respect.

00:40:19Wow.

00:40:20Typical Laura.

00:40:21Just thinks she can buy anything she wants with someone else's money.

00:40:24I would have asked you, but without me, I'm sure they're already broke.

00:40:28Oh, please.

00:40:29Come on.

00:40:30We'll take the dress.

00:40:31That particular dress is not for sale.

00:40:34Uh, what do you mean you don't sell it?

00:40:36I want it.

00:40:37Name your price.

00:40:38It's not about the price, ma'am.

00:40:40This one was custom made for Miss Lewis, the Lewis Group heiress.

00:40:44The entire brand belongs to her.

00:40:46This beautiful dress is for display purposes only.

00:40:50It wouldn't suit you anyway, Amber.

00:40:52What are you talking about?

00:40:53Of course it would suit her.

00:40:54It'd fit her just fine.

00:40:55And if it wouldn't fit me, it certainly wouldn't fit your chunky self either.

00:41:00Well, buying the whole store, allow me to purchase this dress.

00:41:03Oh, please.

00:41:08Don't you know that this store belongs to Lewis Group?

00:41:11We wouldn't sell it to someone like you.

00:41:13Amber, you're not even a branch manager yet.

00:41:16You don't get to speak on behalf of Lewis Group.

00:41:18Could you please tell me more about this dress?

00:41:22Of course.

00:41:23Uh, it was custom made for Laura Lewis, heiress to the Lewis Group fortune.

00:41:28Hand stitched in Italy, naturally.

00:41:31And apparently there are many more like it.

00:41:34High-end stores and museums around the world from her private collection.

00:41:39Laura, do you like this dress?

00:41:42Of course.

00:41:43It's custom made for me.

00:41:45I'm just here to take what's already mine.

00:41:48Oh, you can't be serious.

00:41:50There must be millions of Laura Lewis's out there in the world.

00:41:53Fine, fine.

00:41:54If it's not for sale, can't I at least try it on?

00:41:57It would look incredible on me.

00:41:59Miss, this dress is very delicate.

00:42:02If I may be frank, I don't think this would fit you properly.

00:42:07Are you calling me fat?

00:42:08Actually, on a second thought, why don't we just buy the whole brand?

00:42:13How's that sound?

00:42:14Sir, are you serious?

00:42:15You would just buy the entire brand for one dress?

00:42:19This brand is worth at least $50 million.

00:42:22And to buy it for a waitress?

00:42:25Are you out of your mind?

00:42:27Yes.

00:42:28You see, even if you had the money, they wouldn't sell it to you.

00:42:31Just one second.

00:42:32Yes.

00:42:33This is Brian Shepard, CEO of Shepard Group.

00:42:38I'd like to speak with your head of acquisitions.

00:42:41I'm interested in purchasing your high fashion brand.

00:42:46What?

00:42:47What?

00:42:50Sorry, sir.

00:42:51That brand is not for sale.

00:42:54You see?

00:42:55If we can't have it, neither can you.

00:43:00Mr. Yates.

00:43:01Yes, this is Laura Lewis.

00:43:04I'm calling to discuss the sale of our high-end clothing brand to Shepard Group.

00:43:10Oh, come on.

00:43:11Calling the Lewis family butler won't get you anywhere, sweetie.

00:43:14Exactly.

00:43:15Come on.

00:43:16This is pathetic.

00:43:17You really think this is going to work?

00:43:18It's sad.

00:43:19Excellent.

00:43:21Thank you, Mr. Yates.

00:43:22That's all.

00:43:29Yes?

00:43:34What?

00:43:35Are you willing to sell me the brand?

00:43:37Awesome.

00:43:45Hello?

00:43:46Yes?

00:43:48Wow.

00:43:49Yes, of course.

00:43:50Absolutely.

00:43:54This store, along with the entire brand, has been sold to Mr. Shepard.

00:43:59The Shepard Group is the new owner.

00:44:01How may I be upstairs today, sir?

00:44:04Well, Lauren, I don't know much about pressure, so I would like to give this brand to you.

00:44:10You can't be serious.

00:44:12You don't have the kind of money to buy this store.

00:44:14Don't listen to her, Brian.

00:44:17You two just go do whatever you do somewhere else.

00:44:20You're not welcome here.

00:44:22I want the two of these out of my store.

00:44:28I want the two of these out of my store.

00:44:30Of course.

00:44:33Oh, come on.

00:44:34Sir?

00:44:35Ma'am?

00:44:36You're afraid I have to ask you to leave?

00:44:37Well, we're not leaving.

00:44:38Okay?

00:44:39Hey, hey, hey!

00:44:40This isn't over, Laura!

00:44:42Could I try the dress on now?

00:44:44Of course, Miss Lewis.

00:44:46You just follow me.

00:44:53Wow.

00:44:54Miss Lewis, this dress really was made for you.

00:45:00Laura, you look breathtaking in this dress.

00:45:05Brian, why would you do all of this for me?

00:45:11Laura, because you deserve everything beautiful in the world.

00:45:16And that includes this dress.

00:45:22Will you give us a chance to see where things could go?

00:45:26I...

00:45:28I need a moment.

00:45:30Perhaps we could talk some more about this after the investment meeting?

00:45:35Does that mean it could be a yes?

00:45:38Maybe.

00:45:39Maybe.

00:45:45Hi.

00:45:53Hi.

00:45:57What?

00:45:59Well, well, well.

00:46:01Look who decided to join the party.

00:46:03Playing dress-up again, Laura?

00:46:04One more disrespectful remark towards Laura, Miss Smith.

00:46:07And you understand the meaning of rude.

00:46:10You threatening my girlfriend in front of everyone?

00:46:13For this.

00:46:14This gold digger.

00:46:16You know, Ben.

00:46:17I really cared about you.

00:46:18Even after all the horrible things you said to me after our divorce.

00:46:22I know the name of a great psychologist in New York.

00:46:26Maybe the shrinks in Maplewood aren't equipped to deal with your issues.

00:46:31Enough!

00:46:33I've had enough of this drama.

00:46:34Yeah, me too.

00:46:35Try that again.

00:46:36And you'll regret it.

00:46:38Now get the hell out of my face.

00:46:40Let's see if you two even make it past the door.

00:46:43Yeah.

00:46:45I'm sorry, Miss Smith.

00:46:47But your name's not on the guest list.

00:46:49What?

00:46:50That's impossible.

00:46:51I was invited by the CEO himself.

00:46:53Unfortunately, neither Harrison Group or Smith Group's name is on the list.

00:47:01Looks like you two won't be getting let in after all.

00:47:05You don't have an invitation.

00:47:06You're just here because of Brian.

00:47:08Let me see this.

00:47:09This doesn't even look real.

00:47:10It's different from mine.

00:47:11Why don't you ask her if it's real?

00:47:13This appears to be a VIP invitation from the Vice President.

00:47:14Please, right this way.

00:47:15We can continue this discussion later.

00:47:16If you manage to get in.

00:47:17Sir?

00:47:18Madam?

00:47:19We recommend you leave.

00:47:20There you are!

00:47:21How dare you steal my fiancé?

00:47:22There you are!

00:47:23How dare you steal my fiancé?

00:47:26There you are!

00:47:38How dare you steal my fiancé!

00:47:42There you are!

00:47:43How dare you steal my fiancé?

00:47:45There you are! How dare you steal my fiancée!

00:47:50Looks like another relationship fights the dust, Laura.

00:47:53Looks like stealing men is a hobby of yours.

00:47:56Get away from him! He's engaged to me!

00:47:59Hey, hey, hey. Hold your horses, Clay. That ended a long time ago.

00:48:03Engaged to you. Everyone in Maplewood knows what you did to Brian.

00:48:08Your relationship's history. That was just a little tiff.

00:48:13You really think that could tear us apart?

00:48:16Don't you know who I am?

00:48:18Don't pretend like you don't know.

00:48:20Oh, honey. She don't recognise royalty, let alone a duke.

00:48:24She's just a maid, remember? I don't have time for all this drama.

00:48:29Brian? Let's head inside.

00:48:33Brian! How could you choose this cleaner over me?

00:48:38Are you really going to humiliate me in front of all of Maplewood?

00:48:42There's nothing left to say, Gloria. Don't make this a scene. Shall we?

00:48:52You okay, Miss Duke?

00:48:55And you are?

00:48:56Amber Smith. I'm the Maplewood branch manager of Lewis Group.

00:49:00What branch? I've never heard of it. What do you want from me?

00:49:03That Laura! She tore up my invitation. Do you think you can get me inside?

00:49:08What, your little manager title couldn't get you past the front door?

00:49:12Please don't waste my time.

00:49:15I don't worry.

00:49:29Oh, my God.

00:49:31Oh, my God.

00:49:41If I can't have Brian, neither can you.

00:49:49The Duke family has more influence than you think.

00:49:53Chloe, good to see you. I've been expecting you.

00:49:56Uncle Jones, how are you?

00:49:58Good.

00:50:00I need your help with something.

00:50:02What is it? Anything for my little Chloe.

00:50:06It's Brian.

00:50:07Who's that woman? I thought you were...

00:50:10She's a con woman.

00:50:12She actually used to be a cleaner in his company.

00:50:15What?

00:50:16Are you saying Brian left you for a cleaner?

00:50:21Well, she's pretending to be a Louis to get close to him.

00:50:25What are you planning?

00:50:27I want to destroy Shepard Group.

00:50:33Anyway, I am terribly sorry about Chloe.

00:50:37I had no idea she would be so...

00:50:39intense.

00:50:41What do you mean?

00:50:45You so should have taken her up on her offer.

00:50:48I mean, you guys are just...

00:50:49power couple.

00:50:52I see what you're doing.

00:50:56Power couple, you say.

00:50:58More like a disaster waiting to happen.

00:51:03Anyway, shall we take a seat?

00:51:05Actually, Brian, my seat is...

00:51:08is up there.

00:51:12Really?

00:51:12She doesn't deserve to sit there.

00:51:15Excuse me.

00:51:16This is my VIP invitation.

00:51:19I can sit wherever I like.

00:51:22Hey, what do you think you're doing?

00:51:24This is signed by all three VPs of Louis Group.

00:51:27Where did you get this?

00:51:30Who did you have to sleep with?

00:51:32That's enough.

00:51:34This is getting us nowhere.

00:51:35Laura is my guest.

00:51:38And I will not tolerate

00:51:40any kind of disrespect towards her.

00:51:43Got it?

00:51:45Mr. Shepard,

00:51:46what do you see in that woman?

00:51:49Miss Duke is a perfect match for you.

00:51:51She's from a good family,

00:51:53beautiful,

00:51:54and successful.

00:51:56What more could you ask for?

00:51:58That's a good question.

00:52:00Not much, actually.

00:52:01Honesty.

00:52:04That's what I want.

00:52:06And love.

00:52:08Things that clearly

00:52:09Chloe has no idea.

00:52:11You said I was sorry.

00:52:13What more do you want?

00:52:15I've watched Chloe grow up.

00:52:17She's like a daughter to me.

00:52:19I won't allow her to be

00:52:21spoken to like that.

00:52:25One more chance, Brian.

00:52:27Let's forget all this nonsense.

00:52:31Do it, Mr. Shepard.

00:52:32Propose right here,

00:52:34right now.

00:52:36Brian?

00:52:39Is this how the Duke family

00:52:41handles business deals?

00:52:43By forcing a ring on someone?

00:52:47Do it,

00:52:48or you can kiss goodbye

00:52:49all future investments

00:52:50with the Duke family.

00:52:56Don't you dare.

00:52:58You're humiliating yourself.

00:53:01How dare you?

00:53:02Do you really like this

00:53:03nobody from nowhere?

00:53:05Yes.

00:53:07I like her.

00:53:10But I can't imagine

00:53:11someone like her

00:53:12interested in me.

00:53:15The truth is,

00:53:17I wouldn't be here

00:53:18where I am today

00:53:19without her.

00:53:21Why would you choose

00:53:22someone like her?

00:53:22I know.

00:53:24Exactly!

00:53:25This woman is trouble.

00:53:26She doesn't belong here.

00:53:27Throw her out!

00:53:28You do realize

00:53:30that there is no

00:53:31investment meeting

00:53:32without me.

00:53:34Interesting turn of events.

00:53:36Perhaps it's time

00:53:37we shed some light

00:53:38on your mysterious past.

00:53:40Do you

00:53:41actually think

00:53:42that just because

00:53:43you have the name

00:53:44Laura,

00:53:45that you're the missing

00:53:46heiress Laura Lewis?

00:53:47One more chance,

00:53:51Brian.

00:53:51You're right,

00:53:51Chloe.

00:53:52How ridiculous.

00:53:54Is that what you've

00:53:55been telling everyone?

00:53:56I'm sure that

00:53:57the Duke family

00:53:59still values

00:54:00cooperation,

00:54:01but

00:54:01wow,

00:54:03did I underestimate

00:54:04your foolishness,

00:54:06Chloe.

00:54:07You have no right

00:54:08to talk to Miss Duke

00:54:09like that.

00:54:10That's enough.

00:54:11You don't get to talk here.

00:54:12You got mad,

00:54:13Shepard.

00:54:14You dare to go

00:54:14against Miss Duke.

00:54:16And the same applies

00:54:16to everyone else here.

00:54:18Anyone

00:54:18who insults Laura.

00:54:21Leave us with a black eye.

00:54:23She's willing

00:54:23to offend the Duke

00:54:24for her.

00:54:25What kind of

00:54:25charm does she have?

00:54:26I want to be careful,

00:54:27Brian.

00:54:28Don't forget

00:54:29that this entire

00:54:30hotel chain

00:54:30is owned

00:54:31by the Lewis Group.

00:54:32Are you willing

00:54:33to get blacklisted

00:54:34for this public tantrum?

00:54:36The Lewis Group

00:54:37isn't blacklisting

00:54:39anyone,

00:54:39especially none.

00:54:40Shepard Group.

00:54:45Lewis Group RS?

00:54:48You?

00:54:49Don't make me laugh.

00:54:51Security,

00:54:53remove these two

00:54:53imposters

00:54:54from the premises.

00:54:55Wait,

00:54:56Uncle Jones.

00:55:29Now Shepard Group

00:55:30is ruined.

00:55:31The Duke family.

00:55:32They can't be serious.

00:55:34Shepard Group

00:55:35is doomed.

00:55:36Brian,

00:55:37you don't have

00:55:38to do this

00:55:38for me.

00:55:40Laura,

00:56:05I need you

00:56:06to protect

00:56:07the Shepard Group's

00:56:08stock

00:56:08at all

00:56:11Don't let it

00:56:12drop

00:56:12even one

00:56:13cent.

00:56:15Do you understand?

00:56:17Wow.

00:56:17Award-winning

00:56:19performance,

00:56:20Laura,

00:56:21but you can't

00:56:22possibly control

00:56:23the stock market.

00:56:24Want to put

00:56:25your money

00:56:26where your mouth

00:56:27is,

00:56:27Chloe?

00:56:28If

00:56:29the Shepard

00:56:31stock holds

00:56:32for the next

00:56:35five minutes,

00:56:38you owe me

00:56:39a public

00:56:40apology.

00:56:45Deal.

00:56:47Well,

00:56:51looks like

00:56:53your five

00:56:54minutes

00:56:54is up.

00:56:56Let's see

00:56:56how the Shepard

00:56:57stock is

00:56:57doing.

00:57:02What the?

00:57:04The Shepard

00:57:04group stock

00:57:05prices?

00:57:06It's going

00:57:06up!

00:57:07This can't

00:57:08be happening.

00:57:09It must be

00:57:09a coincidence.

00:57:15Why didn't

00:57:16you short

00:57:17the stock

00:57:17look like

00:57:17I asked?

00:57:19There was

00:57:19a huge

00:57:20investment.

00:57:21We couldn't

00:57:21compete.

00:57:22Shepard's

00:57:22stock price

00:57:22is being

00:57:23heavily

00:57:23supported.

00:57:25How did

00:57:26you do

00:57:26this?

00:57:27Like I

00:57:28said,

00:57:29Chloe,

00:57:30I'm

00:57:31Laura

00:57:32Lewis.

00:57:34No,

00:57:34you're not.

00:57:35You're just

00:57:35some cleaner.

00:57:36You don't

00:57:36have access

00:57:36to billions.

00:57:38Well,

00:57:39I think

00:57:41it's time

00:57:41for my

00:57:41apology.

00:57:47No,

00:57:48I think

00:57:49it's time

00:57:50for my

00:57:50apology.

00:57:51There's

00:57:51no way

00:57:52I'm apologizing

00:57:52to you.

00:57:53If things

00:57:54were the

00:57:54other way,

00:57:55would you be

00:57:55so quick to

00:57:56forgive me?

00:57:58Chloe,

00:57:58the truth

00:57:59says,

00:57:59everyone

00:58:04and a

00:58:05coward

00:58:06and now

00:58:08a sore

00:58:09loser.

00:58:11This is so

00:58:12humiliating for

00:58:13her.

00:58:14How did

00:58:15she manage

00:58:15that?

00:58:16Maybe she

00:58:17really is

00:58:17a Lewis.

00:58:19Apologize

00:58:19to Miss

00:58:20Lewis.

00:59:58He decides

00:59:59which

00:59:59investments are

01:00:00It's

01:00:01head of

01:00:02Duke Industries.

01:00:03So glad you

01:00:03could join us.

01:00:04Why is everyone

01:00:04standing around?

01:00:05It's her.

01:00:07She's making a

01:00:07huge scene

01:00:08trying to claim

01:00:08the VIP seat.

01:00:10It's embarrassing.

01:00:11That seat's

01:00:12reserved for

01:00:12the Lewis Group

01:00:13VIP guest.

01:00:15Specifically,

01:00:25my family's

01:00:27investments.

01:00:33That seat's

01:00:33reserved for

01:00:34the Lewis family

01:00:34heir.

01:00:35I need to

01:00:36make one thing

01:00:37crystal clear.

01:00:43I am the

01:00:45heir of the

01:00:47Lewis family.

01:00:48Ask me to

01:00:52young.

01:00:52This is ridiculous.

01:00:53You,

01:00:54the Lewis heir.

01:00:55Don't you know

01:00:55that Miss Lewis

01:00:56is a legend

01:00:57around here?

01:00:58You must be

01:00:58out of your mind

01:00:59trusting a

01:01:00complete stranger

01:01:00like this.

01:01:01Exactly.

01:01:02We ran a

01:01:03background check

01:01:03on her and

01:01:04turns out she's

01:01:05just some cleaner

01:01:06that used to

01:01:06work for the

01:01:07Harrison Group.

01:01:08Before that,

01:01:09I could see her

01:01:10in my family's

01:01:10supermarket.

01:01:12See,

01:01:12Brian,

01:01:13this is who

01:01:14you've been

01:01:14chasing after.

01:01:15A liar and a

01:01:16cheat.

01:01:16Security,

01:01:18get this

01:01:18imposter out

01:01:19of here.

01:01:20Everyone here

01:01:21is a witness.

01:01:22Why would

01:01:22any of you

01:01:23trust Laura?

01:01:25If any of you

01:01:26dares to

01:01:27harm her,

01:01:28you have to

01:01:29go through

01:01:29me first.

01:01:31Brian,

01:01:32she's just

01:01:32a nobody.

01:01:34She's just

01:01:34someone that

01:01:35the Harrison

01:01:36group ditched.

01:01:37They didn't

01:01:37even want her.

01:01:38What exactly

01:01:39do you see

01:01:40in her?

01:01:40Escort this

01:01:41imposter

01:01:41out of here.

01:01:42Now.

01:01:44I'm Peter.

01:01:46Peter,

01:01:53do you

01:01:54have any

01:01:54idea what

01:01:55you're doing?

01:01:56Mr. Yates.

01:01:57I'm so glad

01:01:58you could join

01:01:59us.

01:02:01Miss Lewis,

01:02:02sorry about

01:02:03the delay

01:02:03and for all

01:02:05the trouble

01:02:05you've had

01:02:05to put up

01:02:06with.

01:02:06It's no

01:02:08trouble,

01:02:08Mr. Yates.

01:02:10Luckily,

01:02:10I haven't been

01:02:10alone.

01:02:11I've had

01:02:12the great

01:02:12company

01:02:13of my

01:02:14very loyal

01:02:15friend.

01:02:17Wait a minute.

01:02:19She's

01:02:19Miss Lewis.

01:02:20Is this a joke?

01:02:21Mr. Young,

01:02:23you're new

01:02:23to the Lewis

01:02:24group,

01:02:24so I can

01:02:26understand why

01:02:26you wouldn't

01:02:27recognize Miss Lewis.

01:02:29But you listened

01:02:30to lies without

01:02:30checking the facts

01:02:31and almost

01:02:33called the police.

01:02:36Tell me,

01:02:37Mr. Young,

01:02:38who put you

01:02:39up to this?

01:02:40Was it my

01:02:41uncle,

01:02:41Ian Lewis?

01:02:42I knew

01:02:46it.

01:02:50Consider

01:02:50this your

01:02:51termination.

01:02:53I get it

01:02:54now.

01:02:55This is

01:02:55all an act,

01:02:56right?

01:02:57Chloe,

01:02:57what are you

01:02:58doing?

01:02:58We still

01:02:59want to

01:02:59work with

01:02:59the Lewis

01:02:59family.

01:03:00Work with

01:03:00them?

01:03:01Are you

01:03:01blind?

01:03:02This woman

01:03:02is clearly

01:03:03having an

01:03:03affair with

01:03:03this old

01:03:04man.

01:03:05That's

01:03:06enough,

01:03:06young lady.

01:03:07You've

01:03:07got no

01:03:08right to

01:03:08disrespect

01:03:09the head

01:03:09of the

01:03:09Lewis

01:03:09group.

01:03:10Chloe,

01:03:13I can't

01:03:14believe we're

01:03:14going through

01:03:14this again.

01:03:16you need

01:03:16some

01:03:17professional

01:03:17help.

01:03:19Maybe I

01:03:20appointment

01:03:20with a

01:03:20great

01:03:21psychiatrist.

01:03:22Chloe,

01:03:23that's

01:03:23enough.

01:03:24It's

01:03:24ridiculous.

01:03:24If you

01:03:25were really

01:03:25the Lewis

01:07:23Brian.

01:07:26Chloe,

01:07:26you need

01:07:29These feelings

01:07:30you have

01:07:30for me,

01:07:31it's not

01:07:32love.

01:07:34It's

01:07:34obsession.

01:07:35Enough.

01:07:37If you don't

01:07:37want to ruin

01:07:38everything completely,

01:07:39you'll come

01:07:54Irma!

01:07:55Get out of me!

01:07:57What is

01:07:57going on here?

01:08:03Did they

01:08:03finally expose

01:08:04Laura's lies?

01:08:05Shepard Group.

01:08:07They're the new

01:08:07partner that's

01:08:08partnering up with

01:08:08Lewis Group

01:08:09for Maplewood.

01:08:11They're handling

01:08:11all future

01:08:11construction projects.

01:08:13That can't be.

01:08:14What about us?

01:08:15That was our

01:08:16project.

01:08:17Remember,

01:08:17Laura teamed up

01:08:18with Brian.

01:08:19Harrison Group

01:08:20is practically

01:08:20out.

01:08:21We have no

01:08:21chance.

01:08:22We can't

01:08:23give up

01:08:23that easily.

01:08:24Remember,

01:08:25Ian Lewis himself

01:08:26appointed me

01:08:27as general

01:08:27manager.

01:08:28In a few

01:08:29days,

01:08:29he promised

01:08:30that he

01:08:30would let

01:08:30us meet

01:08:31with a new

01:08:31heir.

01:08:32You're right.

01:08:33If we

01:08:33can just

01:08:33meet with

01:08:34the new

01:08:34heir,

01:08:34we can

01:08:35bypass

01:08:35the Shepherds

01:08:36and meet

01:08:36directly

01:08:37with the

01:08:37Lewis Group.

01:08:37We just

01:08:39have to

01:08:39play

01:08:39their

01:08:39little

01:08:40game

01:08:40and

01:08:40see

01:08:40who

01:08:41comes

01:08:41out

01:08:41on

01:08:41top.

01:08:43That's right.

01:08:49introduce my

01:08:50associate,

01:09:11saved me

01:09:11from disaster

01:09:12three times

01:09:13over now.

01:09:14Brian,

01:09:24Mr. Shepard,

01:09:25this opportunity

01:09:26is gone.

01:18:34accident, and

01:18:36tragically, she

01:18:37hasn't made it.

01:18:38She has not

01:18:39survived.

01:18:43What?

01:18:44Laura

01:18:46It doesn't

01:19:20misunderstanding.

01:19:23are you doing

01:19:23here?
