00:00:00Sir, our stock is being shorted aggressively. We're about to hit the limit down.
00:00:09What the hell is going on here?
00:00:12Half of you came from major investment banks.
00:00:15Our stock is about to crash, and you're telling me there's nothing we can do.
00:00:20Sir, this is a coordinated attack from multiple investment funds.
00:00:24They're shorting us simultaneously. There is nothing we can do.
00:00:28Sir, what are our next steps?
00:00:35Well, looks like Shepard Group might be bankrupt by lunchtime.
00:00:44Hey, this is a private suggestion.
00:00:46Excuse 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.
00:01:04Do I know you?
00:01:08Wait, what are you doing?
00:01:11What are you doing?
00:01:12You can't do this. You're just a cleaner.
00:01:14Don't be messing with our company funds.
00:01:16This is incredible.
00:01:19What's going on?
00:01:21The shorting attempt.
00:01:22It's failing.
00:01:23The price is holding.
00:01:26Boss, our stock price is reaching today's opening value.
00:01:33We met before.
00:01:35They're still cleaning to do Mr. Shepard.
00:01:37Tell me, how could I ever repay you for this?
00:01:41If the opportunity ever arises, you could give your next contract for construction to Harrison Group.
00:01:50Jason?
00:01:51Can we have five now?
00:01:56Mr. Yates?
00:01:57What, only two bodyguards this time?
00:01:58You're not going soft on me, are you?
00:01:59No, ma'am.
00:02:00I just thought you might like to scream today.
00:02:02Now listen, everyone is waiting in New York for you to claim your inheritance as CEO of the Laws Group.
00:02:08Mr. Yates, you know that my investigations here aren't finished.
00:02:13Ma'am, I still don't understand why you've kept your identity secret and why you've married this Ben Harrison fellow.
00:02:20Look, today is Ben's birthday.
00:02:22Anything we need to discuss, we can do it some other time.
00:02:24Ma'am, it really is time for you to ask.
00:02:28We can sell any new
00:02:43accept your inheritance.
00:02:44Because what I want is a simple life with Ben.
00:02:49Ma'am, at least do me a favor and let Toby walk you
00:02:53up to the house, for my sake.
00:03:05Divorce papers, sign it.
00:03:13Why?
00:03:15You are not worthy of my son anymore.
00:03:18The Harrison Group is practically a local celebrity now,
00:03:21especially since it's landed a $100 million contract
00:03:24with the Shepherd Group.
00:03:26And you, you're just a cleaner.
00:03:29The truth is, Laura, I've wanted a divorce for a very long time.
00:03:33I need a wife who reflects my status.
00:03:36I secured that $100 million contract.
00:03:39You, a cleaning woman, handing out million-dollar deals.
00:03:44Don't make me laugh.
00:03:48I did!
00:03:49It was my present to Ben for his birthday.
00:03:52I was the one who got Bryan Harrison to give Ben that deal.
00:03:56What are you doing here?
00:03:58Clearly Ben has found himself a woman more suitable
00:04:00for the Harrison family.
00:04:02Amber's family is practically local royalty.
00:04:04Local royalty.
00:04:05Local royalty.
00:04:07A small town rich person is royalty.
00:04:10And what qualifications do you have to judge, Miss Cleaner?
00:04:13Your resume boasts supermarket cashier and dinner waitress
00:04:15alongside janitor, doesn't it, Ben?
00:04:21What's going on?
00:04:22Is this why you want a divorce?
00:04:24Because of her?
00:04:25Oh, please.
00:04:26I've spent years building Harrison Group.
00:04:29You're still a cleaner.
00:04:31We just grew apart, that's all.
00:04:33Growing apart?
00:04:36No.
00:04:38No, I...
00:04:39I won't sign any agreement, Ben.
00:04:43I won't sign.
00:04:47Money is a motivator, isn't it?
00:04:49Ben.
00:04:51Alright.
00:04:52Here.
00:04:53A hundred thousand dollars.
00:04:54Open up a small shop or something like that.
00:04:57A hundred thousand dollars.
00:04:59I was the one that helped you make Harrison Group what it is today.
00:05:04Do you have any idea how much money I've brought in for you?
00:05:07Don't be ridiculous.
00:05:09You've never done anything for Ben's success.
00:05:12This is our act of charity to work.
00:05:14Here.
00:05:15A million dollars.
00:05:16Take this.
00:05:17You just want more money, don't you?
00:05:19Just leave and never see Ben again.
00:05:23I never expected my three years of devotion to end like this.
00:05:29Since none of you respect me.
00:05:33A cleaning lady.
00:05:34Threatening us.
00:05:36I'm so scared.
00:05:38Just leave.
00:05:39You already make this house stink.
00:05:41Thank God she's gone.
00:05:42Go to written store.
00:05:43Sir?
00:05:44Laura Lewis' information.
00:05:45She's Ben Harrison's wife.
00:05:46No wonder why she wanted to part with him.
00:05:47Actually sir, Ben Harrison just divorced her.
00:05:48Divorce him?
00:05:49Wait a minute.
00:05:50Don't you remember?
00:05:51Don't you remember?
00:05:52She's the one who helped us with the smith contract three years ago.
00:05:54Sir, Laura Lewis's information.
00:06:00She's Ben Harrison's wife.
00:06:02No wonder why she wants to part with him.
00:06:05Actually sir, Ben Harrison just divorced her.
00:06:08Divorce her?
00:06:10Wait a minute.
00:06:12Don't you remember?
00:06:14She's the one who helped us with the Smith contract three years ago.
00:06:19Yeah, she saved our hiding now, remember?
00:06:23Why would Ben Harrison dump someone who just got him a hundred million dollar contract?
00:06:28I don't know.
00:06:30Let's get to the final news.
00:06:34Hey! What are you doing? Let go of me!
00:06:37You attacked Amber! I apologize this instant!
00:06:43Stealing from the Harrisons.
00:06:45We gave you a generous divorce settlement, you refused it, and now you're stealing.
00:06:49She couldn't afford it. You're a thief.
00:06:52Beef!
00:06:59That's mine! Give it back!
00:07:01Hey!
00:07:02That's enough!
00:07:04Laura?
00:07:06I want to say thank you properly for saving Shepard Group.
00:07:09It's really no worries, Mr. Shepard, but I'm just going through a divorce. You see, it's...
00:07:16Who are you?
00:07:17Laura's new squeeze.
00:07:19Excuse me. Do you know who I am?
00:07:21Is this true? You hooked up with this man while you were married to my son?
00:07:25Shame on you!
00:07:26Mr. Shepard, I...
00:07:27For your information, my name is Brian Shepard. I'm CEO of the Shepard Group.
00:07:33Oh, please. A big shot like Brian Shepard wouldn't be caught dead with a cleaner.
00:07:37You really don't recognize him, do you, Amber? That's really interesting considering I thought you were the one that secured that contract for Ben.
00:07:45That's ridiculous. He doesn't look like that. My ring.
00:07:50Jason, give it back to Ms. Lewis.
00:07:52Hey, what are you doing?
00:07:56Laura, let's get you out of here. Now.
00:07:59Hold on a minute, Laura. Who the heck is this man? Have you been sneaking around?
00:08:03It's alright, ma'am. This is none of your business.
00:08:06Old rabbed dead bodies. You're not going anywhere until that's what you tell us what's going on.
00:08:11We are the Harrisons. You can't just waltz in here and take her.
00:08:15Harrison, compared to the Shepard Group, you're nobody. I go back.
00:08:19What? Are you saying that is Brian Shepard? That's a lie!
00:08:23Don't you dare walk away from me, Laura! You come back here and explain yourself!
00:08:27Don't you take another step towards my son, Laura!
00:08:29Laura, does Ben even know you were the one who secured the 100 million deal?
00:08:37Let's just say that Ben underestimated me.
00:08:41I don't feel good about going through the signing event.
00:08:45After how they treated you, maybe we should cancel it?
00:08:48No! Um, no. The event will proceed.
00:08:53Besides, I'll be there.
00:08:56There's a lot that I don't know about you, Laura.
00:09:02Who are you, truly?
00:09:04You'll find out, Mr. Shepard.
00:09:07Um, can you pull up over here, please?
00:09:13Mr. Yates, I want you to call all of the Lewis Group's business partners and we're gonna have a meeting.
00:09:21An investment meeting, one week from today.
00:09:26Make sure everyone is there.
00:09:30Because after that meeting, I'm gonna reclaim my place as the CEO of Lewis Group.
00:09:36Oh, excellent, Ms. Lewis. I'll start making arrangements tomorrow.
00:09:40Ben Harrison, you're gonna know exactly what it feels like to lose everything.
00:09:48After this ceremony, the Harrison family will finally be considered Maplewood City royalty.
00:09:58Only after then, my darling, we can get married.
00:10:02Laura, what are you doing here?
00:10:04Security! Get that woman out of here! We don't need cleaners at this event!
00:10:09Why wouldn't I be here? This is a business event, after all.
00:10:14Business? You wouldn't know business if I hit you on the head.
00:10:18A fancy dress doesn't make you high society, honey. Just get out!
00:10:22Don't tell me you've come looking for another rich man to play mistress for.
00:10:25You should've taken my $100,000 offer.
00:10:27Oh, Ben, do you really think that you can sign this contract without me?
00:10:31Oh, Laura, this is really important for me. Do not ruin this, okay?
00:10:36You don't belong here. Just get out!
00:10:44That's what you get.
00:10:50This contract is mine. To give or take away as I see fit.
00:10:56Don't be ridiculous! This is insane! Who do you think you are?
00:11:01Yeah, put that down. You have no idea what you're doing.
00:11:04Security! She's lost a mind! This is a disaster!
00:11:08Ben, this contract was supposed to be my birthday present to you,
00:11:12but since you clearly don't deserve it...
00:11:26You really think ripping up that contract is gonna help? You're so silly, Laura.
00:11:45Oh, please, honey. You couldn't explain business to a cleaning lady.
00:11:49Security! Get this woman out of here before she makes another mess.
00:11:52I was the one that started this deal with the Shepherds.
00:11:56And after careful consideration,
00:12:00I don't think the Harrison family is worthy of working with the Shepherds.
00:12:04You really think that the Shepard group and I could be torn up by something that you've done?
00:12:09You have no authority here.
00:12:11Of course she has the authority.
00:12:13That's the man that Laura went with the other day. What is he doing here?
00:12:22Mr. Shepard? How does he know her?
00:12:24Is that really Brian Shepard?
00:12:26Laura, are you alright?
00:12:28Mr. Shepard, I can assure you, I don't even know this woman. There must be some sort of misunderstanding.
00:12:34There's no misunderstanding here, Mr. Harrison.
00:12:38This contract with Shepard group is officially terminated.
00:12:42Effective immediately.
00:12:44Wait a minute. This contract, I thought you said you got it.
00:12:48It's her. She ruined the contract. You are his mistress, aren't you?
00:12:53An affair? She had an affair with that man behind my son's back?
00:12:59Mom, please, it's okay. This man is-
00:13:01Don't touch me!
00:13:03That woman destroyed your career in front of everyone, has an affair, and you just stand there?
00:13:08You're a disgrace.
00:13:09An adulterer. You deserve to be ar-
00:13:12Shut up!
00:13:14Mr. Shepard, I apologize for this whole mess, but I can assure you, this woman has tricked you.
00:13:20Tricked? Why don't you answer a question yourself, then?
00:13:26What was my name before we got married?
00:13:30Laura Lewis, right?
00:13:32Lewis Group? The Financial Giants?
00:13:36There's no way a Lewis is connected to this.
00:13:39That's crazy. There's no way you're related to the Lewis family name. That's absurd.
00:13:46It's- it's- it's absurd!
00:13:50A high society heirs wouldn't waste their time in Maplewood!
00:13:53Yeah. Yeah, it's a lie. It's a lie. This woman was a waitress when I met her. In fact, I saved her from a robbery three years ago.
00:14:00She's nothing special. She only married me out of gratitude.
00:14:04I was just a waitress. How convenient for your story, Ben.
00:14:10First time I met her, she was in need of waiters at the diner.
00:14:13Okay, listen up, everybody. When I met her, I'd only just started my business.
00:14:17Mm-hmm. Now look at me. I'm signing multi-million dollar contracts. And look at her. Still just a clear.
00:14:24Mr. Shepard, that woman is my son's ex-wife. She's doing all this out of spite!
00:14:30She's lying, Mr. Shepard. She's just a cleaning lady for your business, isn't she?
00:14:35Let's make something clear. I was the one behind Harrison Group's success. I used my resources to help my ex-husband, but all he saw me as was the maid.
00:14:50Don't lie! You were never good enough for Ben when you married him. Oops!
00:14:55That roof was built with lies. Kathy, you never respected me. And Ben? Dumping me the second you thought you were successful on your own. And the cheating. I think you're blaming the wrong person.
00:15:12You were not good enough for Ben then, and you're certainly not good enough for him now!
00:15:16If you'd prefer to believe a liar's story, then the truth, Kathy. Consider this my resignation from the Harrisons. From everything.
00:15:32Wait, wait, wait, wait! Laura, you think you can just walk in here and, you know, ruin everything? And then just walk out like nothing happened?
00:15:37I don't think so. You're a cleaner. You're a cleaner that cleans toilets. Nobody cares about you.
00:15:43Cleaning toilets or not, at least I have my self-respect. I don't need a fancy title or a rich husband to feel important.
00:15:57I think there has been some sort of misunderstanding. I think all jobs are important, right, Mom?
00:16:02Ben, what are you doing?
00:16:04But I don't think that a janitor should have some sort of influence over a deal as big as this.
00:16:08A janitor. Well, why don't we ask Miss Smith exactly how she landed that collaboration with Shepard?
00:16:19You did claim to have been the one that secured the deal, weren't you, Miss Smith?
00:16:24Mr. Shepard, it's all a lie. This woman, Laura, she's just a gold digger trying to trick you.
00:16:30I...but, well...
00:16:31A lie, you say? Miss Smith, I believe you mentioned securing this contract for Harrison Group. But I don't recognize you.
00:16:41Is this true, Miss Smith?
00:16:45Miss Lewis has helped me on several occasions. This contract was my way of showing my appreciation.
00:16:51But the contract...I mean, Laura tore it up. So can't we just print another one and get this signing ceremony underway?
00:17:00Reprint it, Mr. Harrison. Perhaps you haven't been paying attention without Miss Lewis involvement.
00:17:07I wouldn't even consider partnering with your company.
00:17:10Today, I want to make it clear. Shepard Group has no plans to partner with Harrison Group in the future.
00:17:24Miss Smith, you lied to us. You destroyed everything.
00:17:28What? No, it's a misunderstanding. I can explain.
00:17:32Lewis? Lewis family group? This can't be.
00:17:36Believe what you want, Ben.
00:17:39Lewis group will be holding a massive investment meeting later this week.
00:17:43Three of our vice presidents will be here in Maplewood.
00:17:48And I'm sure you can ask them if you still have any doubts about who I am.
00:17:54Everyone, listen to me.
00:17:57Shepard Group will not be partnering with Harrison Group.
00:18:00A man who can keep his vows to his wife cannot be trusted to keep his word on a contract.
00:18:08The charade is over, Mr. Harrison.
00:18:11Everyone here deserves to see the truth.
00:18:16Miss Lewis, shall we take this conversation elsewhere?
00:18:26Help!
00:18:27Mom!
00:18:28Someone get a doctor!
00:18:29Mom!
00:18:30It seems your night has taken quite the turn, Mr. Shepard.
00:18:36Indeed.
00:18:37Perhaps it's best to leave them to it.
00:18:39What?
00:18:40What now?
00:18:41Mom, this is not all on me.
00:18:55Not on you!
00:18:57I was trying to help.
00:18:59She cheated on you with Shepard.
00:19:01Flaunted their affair.
00:19:02Exactly.
00:19:04And those dresses?
00:19:05Who could afford those on a janitor's salary?
00:19:07Miss Smith, how could you do this?
00:19:10We trusted you completely.
00:19:12What?
00:19:13No, no.
00:19:14I got Ben the deal.
00:19:16I had no idea Shepard would fall for Laura.
00:19:19She's a liar.
00:19:21Oh, stop it, Amber.
00:19:22You lied to us just as much as she did.
00:19:25Lied?
00:19:27You're on my side.
00:19:29And anyways, I have a plan.
00:19:31The Shepards are no one special.
00:19:32We can expose Laura in all her lies.
00:19:35Go national.
00:19:37We can make ourselves a household name.
00:19:40Now, if you'll excuse me,
00:19:42I have a very important phone call to you.
00:19:44Thank you, everybody.
00:19:49Thank you so much for tonight, Mr. Shepard.
00:19:52Thank you as well for standing up for me.
00:19:55It's alright, Laura.
00:19:56You deserve the credit for all your hard work.
00:19:58Can I ask you something?
00:19:59Do you have any place to stay tonight?
00:20:02Maybe a hotel?
00:20:03Don't...don't worry about me, Mr. Shepard.
00:20:05I'll be fine.
00:20:07Excuse me, you can just drop me off.
00:20:09Actually, Laura, actually, Laura, there is something else.
00:20:13Would you consider to go out for dinner sometime?
00:20:16Just casually, of course.
00:20:18Mr. Shepard, are you asking me out?
00:20:22Please, call me Brian.
00:20:25And yes, technically, you're single now.
00:20:30Yes, that may be true, but going out with a newly divorced ex-cleaner
00:20:36isn't exactly proper.
00:20:40Proper?
00:20:42Laura, I don't give a damn about appearances.
00:20:46Tonight, I saw your intelligence and your strength.
00:20:50Those are qualities I truly admire.
00:20:54So what do you say?
00:20:56Dinner?
00:20:58Just two people getting to know each other.
00:21:00I'm sorry, Mr. Shepard.
00:21:05I actually have another appointment tonight, so I can't...
00:21:09Wait, Laura...
00:21:10Just here is fine.
00:21:14Laura?
00:21:19Laura, who is it?
00:21:21Laura, wait!
00:21:23Jason, find out who owns that car.
00:21:27And do it fast.
00:21:30Iain Lewis, who is this?
00:21:36It's Amber Smith.
00:21:38Mr. Lewis?
00:21:40I'm sorry for the late call, but I believe I have some urgent information about your family.
00:21:45I don't know who you are, Miss Smith.
00:21:48How did you get this number?
00:21:50Don't worry about that right now.
00:21:52I believe I know someone impersonating Laura Lewis.
00:21:55Someone I know very well.
00:21:57Impersonating my niece.
00:22:00And where is this fake Laura?
00:22:04Right here in Maplewood.
00:22:06And let me tell you, she's causing quite a scene.
00:22:10Well, what is she doing exactly?
00:22:13And more to the point, what do you want from me?
00:22:16In the next few days, the Lewis Group will hold an investment meeting, right?
00:22:22I want to meet with the Vice Presidents.
00:22:25All will be revealed then.
00:22:27Very well.
00:22:29I'll have my secretary arrange a meeting.
00:22:32But be warned, if this is a waste of my time, I...
00:22:34It won't be.
00:22:36Trust me, Mr. Lewis.
00:22:38Thank you, Mr.
00:22:44That little rascal, Laura.
00:22:48I wonder what she's up to now.
00:22:51That car belongs to Mr. Yeats.
00:22:56The Lewis family butler.
00:22:58Oh.
00:23:00Lewis family?
00:23:02That's interesting.
00:23:04Could she be connected to them somehow?
00:23:07I'm not sure.
00:23:09Brian!
00:23:11There you are.
00:23:13I've missed you.
00:23:14Chloe.
00:23:16What are you up to?
00:23:17What are you doing here?
00:23:19What do you mean?
00:23:21Can't I visit the man I love?
00:23:23We ended things for a reason.
00:23:25It was just one teensy mistake.
00:23:27I was...
00:23:28I was a little bit tipsy.
00:23:30Doesn't everyone deserve a second chance?
00:23:32Teensy mistake, you say?
00:23:34You cheated on me.
00:23:39Is this your new fling?
00:23:41Extavor scene.
00:23:43Used to clean floors.
00:23:45Quite the catch, you say.
00:23:47Look, my relationship with her is none of your business.
00:23:51And don't you dare talk about her like that.
00:23:54Please.
00:23:56An ex-cleaner turned social climber latching onto a wealthy businessman.
00:24:00It's a classic story.
00:24:01That's enough.
00:24:03I'll get the hell out of my office.
00:24:05You want to be careful, Brian.
00:24:07Duke Industries still holds a lot of weight in Maplewood.
00:24:10If you want Shepherd Group to stay afloat,
00:24:13you ought to be more careful.
00:24:14Seems like you've got more on your plate than Laura's secrets now.
00:24:20This is it.
00:24:21The Lewis Group Vice Presidents are on the top floor.
00:24:22Once I'm done speaking with them,
00:24:23I'll have Ben's company rolling in business investments.
00:24:24I'll go speak with them first, and then I'll introduce you.
00:24:25Well, well, well.
00:24:26Look who it is.
00:24:27What a surprise.
00:24:28Did Brian teach you already?
00:24:29That's none of your business.
00:24:30Now, move aside, please.
00:24:31Laura, just what do you think you're doing, you street rat?
00:24:32You really think you can just ruin my events again?
00:24:33Haven't you ruined my life enough?
00:24:34Don't you have any shame?
00:24:35Don't you have any shame?
00:24:36No.
00:24:37No.
00:24:38No.
00:24:39No.
00:24:40No.
00:24:41No.
00:24:42No.
00:24:43No.
00:24:44No.
00:24:45No.
00:24:46No.
00:24:47No.
00:24:48No.
00:24:49No.
00:24:50No.
00:24:51No.
00:24:52No.
00:24:53No.
00:24:54No.
00:24:55No.
00:24:56No.
00:24:57No.
00:24:58No.
00:25:00Ow.
00:25:01If you'll excuse me, I have an important meeting to get to.
00:25:03Oh, the nurse.
00:25:05After everything that you've done,
00:25:06you think you can just waltz in here and manipulate them too?
00:25:09Seriously?
00:25:11I think you need to reconsider exactly who's manipulating who here.
00:25:15Oh, that's gold.
00:25:17You really think that they're gonna let you in, Laura?
00:25:19Please.
00:25:20You're no one compared to me.
00:25:22You don't deserve to be here.
00:25:23The only ones who don't belong here,
00:25:26here are you three. And you, idiot, believing every lie that she tells you. Wake up, Ben.
00:25:34Oh, Laura. Laura, come on. Why do you always pull this on me? I mean, seriously, can't
00:25:40you just let me enjoy one of my events for once? I know what this is.
00:25:45So stupid.
00:25:46Oh, such a trap. Amber spoke directly with the CEO. He invited her to meet with the
00:25:52VPs before the main meeting. Yeah. Amber got me a partnership with the Lewis Group.
00:25:58And unlike some people, I have a real invitation. Well, before you all start celebrating, why
00:26:06don't you take a look at this? Oh, that's rich. You may have Brian Shepard fooled, but you can't fool me.
00:26:15I spoke to Ian Lewis himself, CEO of Lewis Group.
00:26:19Speaking of Brian, where is he right now? You mean my uncle? Ian, don't be ridiculous.
00:26:28Ian Lewis personally gave me this invitation himself. And besides, this looks fake. She's a liar.
00:26:38This is a personal invitation from Mr. Yates himself. It grants me access to the VIP elevator,
00:26:45which leads straight to the vice presidential suite. She's lying. They don't have a VIP elevator
00:26:50in this hotel. Is there a special elevator for VIPs in this hotel? Not that I know of. See? She's lying.
00:27:02There you have it, Laura. Even the hotel staff can spot a fake. Go on, get lost before things get worse.
00:27:08Here, take this one. Lead me to the vice presidents. You have no idea what you just did. There will be consequences.
00:27:23Besides, if you have this relationship with Ian Lewis that you claim to have, why don't you just ask him to get the two of them an invitation?
00:27:33Security! Security! We need this woman removed immediately. She is harassing me. We're done with your games, Laura. You're just a fraud.
00:27:40Man, place me here. What?! Hold on!
00:27:46Brian Shepard? You think money buys you the right to walk all over people? Well, it doesn't.
00:27:51Yeah. Wasn't enough to kick us out of Maplewood, was it, huh? What other plans do you have to destroy this time?
00:27:57Get you out? After what you did to Laura, you had it coming.
00:28:01Don't play dumb. We know exactly what's been happening here. How long has this little affair been going on?
00:28:07You've been sleeping with her since she was married to my son.
00:28:10Hold on a second. An affair? You think Laura and I? You people are unbelievable.
00:28:17Mr. Carter, get down here ASAP. We have a situation.
00:28:25What, you think you can just boss the manager around now? Is that it?
00:28:28Well, stick around and watch you crash and burn.
00:28:30Miss Lewis, apologies for the delay. How can I help you this evening?
00:28:34Thank you, Mr. Carter, for getting down here so quickly. It seems there's a misunderstanding.
00:28:40These people don't think that I belong here.
00:28:44Well, Mr. Carter, I can assure you, this woman is a cleaner.
00:28:47A cleaner? Nonsense. I personally agreed to Miss Lewis upon her arrival in Maplewood three years ago.
00:28:53Exactly. Lewis Group, my company, has some major investments planned here in Maplewood.
00:29:02I was just here investigating potential business opportunities.
00:29:05No, this woman doesn't know the difference between business and a hole in the ground.
00:29:10She's been this way since my son divorced her. She's insane.
00:29:13Actually, I met Laura three years ago at the coffee shop.
00:29:17She helped secure a profitable investment for Shepard Group.
00:29:21No, it's a lie. Mr. Shepard, she's tricking you too.
00:29:26You know, it's exhausting trying to argue with people who forget who helped them.
00:29:34Mr. Carter, would you mind showing me to the VIP elevator?
00:29:39Wait, is that why you're covering for her? Huh? Because of the affair? Because she slept with you?
00:29:43Excuse me, who are you and how dare you speak to Miss Lewis that way?
00:29:47Enough of this. She grabbed that.
00:29:49That's enough. Having you embarrass yourself enough.
00:29:51This is Lewis Group property. Behave or I'll call security.
00:29:55But she doesn't even have a VIP entrance access. She shouldn't be here.
00:30:00Since you're having trouble understanding them, let me make it clear.
00:30:05This hotel is owned by the Lewis family. It's mine. To come or go as I please.
00:30:17Thank you for stepping in, Brian. I owe you one. We'll talk about this later.
00:30:23Well, it seems that divorcing a powerful woman wasn't the best decision, Mr. Harris.
00:30:34I don't think we're going to have this.
00:30:35Come in!
00:30:36Excuse me, Vice Presidents. I'm Amber Smith, General Manager of the Lewis Group Maplewood Branch.
00:30:45I believe Ian Lewis told you about our meeting today?
00:30:48Maplewood Branch. Our records don't show any Maplewood Branch, Ms. Smith.
00:30:55Are you sure you haven't gotten something mixed up?
00:30:59Ian Lew- Mr. Lewis reassured me that today we would discuss, well, expansion plans.
00:31:08Expansion plans? Ms. Smith? A decision like that wouldn't be taken without board approval.
00:31:15And frankly, we haven't heard anything about Maplewood Branch.
00:31:19But, Ian Lewis assured me that-
00:31:22Ms. Smith, we have a very important guest arriving soon.
00:31:26Perhaps you'd like to schedule a follow-up meeting with one of our staff?
00:31:29Maybe I can stay for this guest and offer some local-
00:31:31Ms. Smith, we'd like you to leave. If you don't, we'll call security.
00:31:41Hey, stop there. This elevator is a VIP only. Back, please.
00:31:46Of course. My apologies.
00:31:54Laura?
00:31:57Vice Presidents! It's so good to see all of you again.
00:32:02Ms. Lewis, it's been too long.
00:32:05Your return is a lifesaver, Ms. Lewis. The Lewis Group has floundered under your uncle's, well, shall we say, unconventional leadership.
00:32:13The board are begging you to come back, Ms. Lewis.
00:32:18Well, please sit. Yes, well, it is time for me to get my career back on track.
00:32:25We've got a meeting planned, a big one, in just a few days.
00:32:30Local powerhouses and smaller players, too. They'll all be there in one spot.
00:32:35Ms. Lewis, we met with an Amber Smith. She claimed your uncle appointed her general manager of a Maplewood branch for the Lewis Group.
00:32:47She said that, did she? Well, Ms. Smith is a liar. There is no Maplewood branch, at least not yet.
00:32:53She lied so blatantly. It was, it's unbelievable.
00:32:58Don't worry. I found a much more suitable partner.
00:33:02Shepard Group.
00:33:05Shepard Group? Their rise to a public company has been impressive.
00:33:09Do you have anything to do with that?
00:33:12So, what happens now with this Amber Smith?
00:33:16Oh, don't worry about Amber. I've got plans for her.
00:33:25Ms. Lewis, consider this your official invitation to the legend from us.
00:33:34Cheers.
00:33:35Cheers.
00:33:36I'm not leaving. What are you talking about? No, come on.
00:33:48Wait! I'm Amber Smith. I'm the Lewis Group manager of Maplewood branch. What are you doing? These are my guests.
00:33:53Yeah, that's right. Tell them who we are.
00:33:55Yes, we were waiting for Ms. Smith.
00:33:59Lewis Group Maplewood branch? No such thing, ma'am. And frankly, I'm not interested in your act.
00:34:04Of course. Laura! She's probably sleeping with the manager as well.
00:34:10That's how she gets away with everything.
00:34:12You underestimate her, Cathy. She's probably sleeping with all three vice presidents.
00:34:17No way a girl like her could get into a hotel like this.
00:34:20Careful with your words. Both of you. Acquisitions like that can get you in serious trouble.
00:34:28Look who can't even get into a meeting, whilst I secure three with all the vice presidents.
00:34:33And let's not forget the mystery guests that they're bringing to Maplewood.
00:34:37Looks like she used you and tossed you aside.
00:34:39Used me? Unlike some people. I don't mind being helpful.
00:34:44You're so stupid. She threw you away like yesterday's trash.
00:34:49Don't worry, Brian. You deserve better. And let's not forget, I'm the new Maplewood branch manager of Lewis Group.
00:34:55Appointed by the CEO of Lewis Group themselves, Ian Lewis.
00:35:00New branch manager, huh? Interesting.
00:35:04Laura Lewis? What are you doing here? Get out of here!
00:35:07You claim to be the mystery guest.
00:35:09Don't play games, Laura. I was formally invited by Lewis Group themselves to the investment meeting.
00:35:16Only the top companies get those. Looks like you're all out of luck.
00:35:21Is that so?
00:35:23Well then, there seems to be a misunderstanding.
00:35:26You see, I'm not sure if you know Miss Smith, but Lewis Group is my company.
00:35:33And I decide who goes to the meetings.
00:35:37Escort them out. Their visit is over.
00:35:41Oh, come on. This way, please.
00:35:44I'm not leaving.
00:35:46Move. We're not leaving again. Move. Oh, no, no, no. We're not going now.
00:35:49This isn't over, Laura. You'll see.
00:35:55Thanks for waiting, friend.
00:35:58Laura, I'm glad you're okay.
00:36:02And thank you for defending me. I really appreciate it.
00:36:10Um, are you coming to the meeting?
00:36:14Yes, but it's going to be tricky.
00:36:17Why? I'm sure that Shepard Group got an invitation.
00:36:26Yes.
00:36:28Laura, there's something you should know.
00:36:32Is... is this about Ben?
00:36:36Because I can assure you that he won't cause any problems.
00:36:39He won't even get past security.
00:36:42Laura, it's not Ben.
00:36:44It's someone else.
00:36:48Someone's causing problems for Shepard Group?
00:36:53Yes.
00:36:55Her name is Chloe Duke.
00:36:58She is daughter of the Duke family.
00:37:02She's my ex-fiancee.
00:37:04And, uh, let's say things didn't end so well between us.
00:37:11And...
00:37:13Let's just say we didn't end things so well.
00:37:17And for some reason, she's having a hard time moving on.
00:37:22And...
00:37:25You think that she's gonna cause problems at the meeting?
00:37:30For...
00:37:33Out of...
00:37:35Jealousy?
00:37:37There's a possibility.
00:37:38She's kind of jealous.
00:37:40Well...
00:37:41All the more reason for you to be there.
00:37:45Besides...
00:37:47I'll be there too.
00:37:51Laura...
00:37:53Would you consider being my guest at the meeting?
00:37:57What?
00:37:59Are you worried that this Chloe's gonna cause problems for me too?
00:38:02Maybe a little.
00:38:04But mostly...
00:38:06I wanna show them we're a team.
00:38:08Well...
00:38:09It's a very kind offer, Mr. Shepard.
00:38:13Laura...
00:38:18I don't care about your best.
00:38:20I just want to be by your side.
00:38:23I think I'm falling for you.
00:38:28Ryan...
00:38:34I...
00:38:35I appreciate...
00:38:36Your honesty and...
00:38:38Right now...
00:38:39I...
00:38:40I'm just not...
00:38:41I...
00:38:42I just don't really have romance...
00:38:43On my mind...
00:38:44Right now...
00:38:45Just...
00:38:46With...
00:38:47With everything going on...
00:38:48And...
00:38:49Going on and...
00:38:50It's okay.
00:38:51I just want to be upfront.
00:38:53And if Chloe tries anything...
00:38:56You won't face her alone.
00:39:01There's just...
00:39:02One thing...
00:39:03I do need.
00:39:05What is it?
00:39:07A formal dress.
00:39:21Security!
00:39:22She doesn't belong here.
00:39:23This is a private store.
00:39:25Excuse me.
00:39:26We...
00:39:27Need some assistance.
00:39:28I'm looking for...
00:39:29A very particular dress.
00:39:33Wow.
00:39:34It's...
00:39:35Beautiful.
00:39:36It is.
00:39:37I'll try this one on.
00:39:39Don't bother with her.
00:39:40She can't afford anything here.
00:39:42She's just a cleaner.
00:39:43She doesn't deserve to shop you.
00:39:45She has no money.
00:39:46Yeah, exactly.
00:39:47I mean, what are you doing here?
00:39:49Can't you just leave me alone?
00:39:51I wouldn't bat an eyelash...
00:39:52If you just...
00:39:53Disappeared.
00:39:54I'm here for...
00:39:55Retail therapy.
00:39:57Oh, please.
00:39:58This store's for the A-list only.
00:40:01Not some cheapskate like you.
00:40:03Says the woman who barged into my marriage.
00:40:05Hey.
00:40:06Show some respect.
00:40:08Typical Laura.
00:40:09Just thinks she can buy anything she wants with someone else's money.
00:40:13I would have asked you, but without me, I'm sure they're already booked.
00:40:17Oh, please.
00:40:18Come on.
00:40:19We'll take the dress.
00:40:20Sir, this particular dress is not for sale.
00:40:23What do you mean you don't sell it?
00:40:25I want it.
00:40:26Name your price.
00:40:27It's not about the price, ma'am.
00:40:29This one was custom made for Miss Lewis, the Lewis Group heiress.
00:40:32The entire brand belongs to her.
00:40:34This beautiful dress is for display purposes only.
00:40:39It wouldn't suit you anyway, Amber.
00:40:41What are you talking about?
00:40:42Of course it would suit her.
00:40:43It'd fit her just fine.
00:40:45And if it wouldn't fit me, it certainly wouldn't fit your chunky self either.
00:40:49Well, buying the whole store, allow me to purchase this dress.
00:40:56Oh, please.
00:40:57Don't you know that this store belongs to Lewis Group?
00:41:00We wouldn't sell it to someone like you.
00:41:02Amber, you're not even a branch manager yet.
00:41:04You don't get to speak on behalf of Lewis Group.
00:41:07Could you please tell me more about this dress?
00:41:10Of course.
00:41:12It was custom made for Laura Lewis, heiress to the Lewis Group fortune.
00:41:17And stitched in Italy, naturally.
00:41:20And apparently there are many more like it.
00:41:22High-end stores and museums around the world from her private collections.
00:41:27Laura, do you like this dress?
00:41:31Of course.
00:41:32It's custom made for me.
00:41:34I'm just here to take what's already mine.
00:41:37Oh, you can't be serious.
00:41:38There must be millions of Laura Lewis's out there in the world.
00:41:42Fine, fine.
00:41:43If it's not for sale, can't I at least try it on?
00:41:46It would look incredible on me.
00:41:47Miss, this dress is very delicate.
00:41:51If I may be frank, I don't think this would fit you properly.
00:41:56Are you calling me fat?
00:41:58Actually, on a second thought.
00:42:00Why don't we just buy the whole brand?
00:42:02How's that sound?
00:42:04Sir, are you serious?
00:42:05You would just buy the entire brand for one dress?
00:42:08This brand is worth at least 50 million dollars.
00:42:11And to buy it for a waitress?
00:42:14Are you out of your mind?
00:42:16Yes.
00:42:17You see, even if you had the money, they wouldn't sell it to you.
00:42:19Just one second.
00:42:23Yes, this is Brian Shepherd, CEO of Shepherd Group.
00:42:26I'd like to speak with your head of acquisitions.
00:42:29I'm interested in purchasing your high fashion brand.
00:42:35What?
00:42:38Sorry, sir.
00:42:39That brand is not for sale.
00:42:42You see, if we can't have it, neither can you.
00:42:48Mr. Yates, yes, this is Laura Lewis.
00:42:51I'm calling to discuss the sale of our high-end clothing brand, too.
00:42:57To Shepherd Group.
00:42:58Oh, come on.
00:43:00Calling the Lewis family butler won't get you anywhere, sweetie.
00:43:03Exactly.
00:43:04Come on, this is pathetic.
00:43:05You really think this is gonna work?
00:43:06It's sad.
00:43:07Excellent.
00:43:09Thank you, Mr. Yates.
00:43:10That's all.
00:43:17Yes?
00:43:21What?
00:43:22Are you willing to sell me the brand?
00:43:27Awesome.
00:43:33Hello?
00:43:34Yes?
00:43:36Wow.
00:43:37Yes, of course.
00:43:38Absolutely.
00:43:42This store, along with the entire brand, has been sold to Mr. Shepherd.
00:43:47The Shepherd Group is the new owner.
00:43:49How may I be of service today, sir?
00:43:52Well, Lauren, I don't know much about fashion.
00:43:55So I would like to give you this brand to you.
00:43:58You can't be serious.
00:44:00You don't have the kind of money to buy this store.
00:44:02Don't listen to her, Brian.
00:44:05You two just go do whatever you do somewhere else.
00:44:09You're not welcome here.
00:44:10I want the two of these out of my store.
00:44:16I want the two of these out of my store.
00:44:18Of course.
00:44:21Oh, come on.
00:44:22Sir?
00:44:23Ma'am?
00:44:24You're afraid I'll have to ask you to leave?
00:44:25Well, we're not leaving.
00:44:26Okay?
00:44:27Hey, hey, hey!
00:44:28This isn't over, Laura!
00:44:30Could I try the dress on now?
00:44:31Of course, Miss Lewis.
00:44:33You just follow me.
00:44:40Wow.
00:44:42Miss Lewis, this dress really was made for you.
00:44:48Laura, you look breathtaking in this dress.
00:44:53Brian, why would you do all of this for me?
00:44:59Laura, because you deserve everything beautiful in the world.
00:45:04And that includes this dress.
00:45:10Will you give us a chance to see where things could go?
00:45:14I...
00:45:16I need a moment.
00:45:18Perhaps we could talk some more about this after the investment meeting?
00:45:23Does that mean it could be a yes?
00:45:25It could be a yes?
00:45:26Maybe.
00:45:33Hi.
00:45:41Hi.
00:45:44What?
00:45:46Well, well, well.
00:45:48Look who decided to join the party.
00:45:50Playing dress up again, Laura?
00:45:52One more disrespectful remark towards Laura, Miss Smith.
00:45:55And you understand the meaning of rude.
00:45:57You threatening my girlfriend in front of everyone?
00:46:00For this.
00:46:01This gold digger.
00:46:03You know, Ben.
00:46:04I really cared about you.
00:46:06Even after all the horrible things you said to me after our divorce.
00:46:09I knew the name of a great psychologist in New York.
00:46:12Maybe the shrinks in Maplewood aren't equipped to deal with your issues.
00:46:18Enough!
00:46:20I've had enough of this drama.
00:46:21Yeah, me too.
00:46:23Try that again, and you'll regret it.
00:46:26Now, get the hell on my face.
00:46:28Let's see if you two even make it past the door.
00:46:30Yeah.
00:46:33I'm sorry, Miss Smith, but your name's not on the guest list.
00:46:36What?
00:46:37That's impossible.
00:46:39I was invited by the CEO himself.
00:46:43Unfortunately, neither Harrison Group or Smith Group.
00:46:46Your name is on the list.
00:46:48Looks like you two won't be getting let in after all.
00:46:52You don't have an invitation.
00:46:54You're just here because of Brian.
00:46:59Let me see this.
00:47:00This doesn't even look real.
00:47:01It's different from mine.
00:47:03Why don't you ask her if it's real?
00:47:05This appears to be a VIP invitation from the Vice President.
00:47:11Please, right this way.
00:47:14We can continue this discussion later.
00:47:17If you manage to get in.
00:47:18Sir.
00:47:19Madam.
00:47:24We recommend you leave.
00:47:27There you are!
00:47:29How dare you steal my fiancé!
00:47:33There you are!
00:47:34How dare you steal my fiancé!
00:47:37Looks like another relationship fights the dust, Laura.
00:47:40Looks like stealing men is a habit of yours.
00:47:42Get away from him!
00:47:44He's engaged to me!
00:47:45Hey, hey, hey.
00:47:46Hold your horses, Gwen.
00:47:48That ended a long time ago.
00:47:50Engaged to you.
00:47:52Everyone in Maplewood knows what you did to Brian.
00:47:55Your relationship's history.
00:47:58That was just a little tiff.
00:48:00You really think that could tear us apart?
00:48:03Don't you know who I am?
00:48:05Don't pretend like you don't know.
00:48:06Oh, honey.
00:48:08She don't recognize royalty, let alone a duke.
00:48:11She's just a maid, remember?
00:48:13I don't have time for all this drama.
00:48:16Brian?
00:48:18Let's head inside.
00:48:20Brian!
00:48:21How could you choose this cleaner over me?
00:48:25Are you really going to humiliate me in front of all of Maplewood?
00:48:29There's nothing left to say, Gwen.
00:48:30Don't make this a scene.
00:48:32Shall we?
00:48:36You okay, Miss Duke?
00:48:41And you are?
00:48:42Amber Smith.
00:48:44I'm the Maplewood branch manager of Lewis Group.
00:48:47What branch? I've never heard of it.
00:48:49What do you want from me?
00:48:50That Laura!
00:48:52She tore up my invitation.
00:48:54Do you think you can get me inside?
00:48:55What, your little manager title couldn't get you past the front door?
00:48:59Please don't waste my time.
00:49:06If I can't have Brian, neither can you.
00:49:24If I can't have Brian, neither can you.
00:49:36The Duke family has more influence than you think.
00:49:40Chloe, good to see you. I've been expecting you.
00:49:43Uncle Jones, how are you?
00:49:45Good.
00:49:47I need your help with something.
00:49:49What is it? Anything for my little Chloe.
00:49:52It's Brian.
00:49:54Who's that woman? I thought you were...
00:49:57She's a con woman.
00:49:58She actually used to be a cleaner in his company.
00:50:01What?
00:50:02Are you saying Brian left you for a cleaner?
00:50:08Well, she's pretending to be a Louis to get close to him.
00:50:11What are you planning?
00:50:14I want to destroy Shepard Group.
00:50:19Anyway, I am terribly sorry about Chloe.
00:50:22I had no idea she would be so...
00:50:27In this?
00:50:30What do you mean?
00:50:32You so should have taken her up on her offer.
00:50:34I mean, you guys are just...
00:50:37Power couple.
00:50:38I see what you're doing.
00:50:41Power couple, you say?
00:50:44More like a disaster waiting to happen.
00:50:48Anyway, shall we take a seat?
00:50:51Actually, Brian, my seat is...
00:50:54It's up there.
00:50:56Really?
00:50:58She doesn't deserve to sit there.
00:51:01Excuse me.
00:51:02This is my VIP invitation.
00:51:05I can sit wherever I like.
00:51:08Hey, what do you think you're doing?
00:51:10This is signed by all three VPs of Louis Group.
00:51:13Where did you get this?
00:51:16Who did you have to sleep with?
00:51:17That's enough.
00:51:20This is getting us nowhere.
00:51:22Laura is my guest.
00:51:24And I will not tolerate any kind of disrespect towards her.
00:51:29Got it?
00:51:31Mr. Shepard, what do you see in that woman?
00:51:35Miss Duke is a perfect match for you.
00:51:38She's from a good family, beautiful and successful.
00:51:42What more could you ask for?
00:51:44That's a good question.
00:51:46Not much, actually.
00:51:48Honesty.
00:51:50That's what I want.
00:51:52And love.
00:51:54Things that are clearly Chloe has no idea.
00:51:57I said I was sorry.
00:52:00What more do you want?
00:52:01I've watched Chloe grow up.
00:52:03She's like a daughter to me.
00:52:05I won't allow her to be spoken to like that.
00:52:11One more chance, Brian.
00:52:13Let's forget all this nonsense.
00:52:16Do it, Mr. Shepard.
00:52:18Propose right here, right now.
00:52:21Brian?
00:52:25Is this how the Duke family handles business deals?
00:52:29By forcing a ring on someone?
00:52:32Do it, or you can kiss goodbye all future investments with the Duke family.
00:52:41Don't you dare.
00:52:44You're humiliating yourself.
00:52:46How dare you?
00:52:48Do you really like this nobody from nowhere?
00:52:50Yes.
00:52:53I like her.
00:52:55But I can't imagine someone like her interesting in me.
00:53:01The truth is, I wouldn't be here where I am today without her.
00:53:06Why would you choose someone like her?
00:53:08No, I know.
00:53:09Exactly.
00:53:10This woman is trouble.
00:53:12She doesn't belong here.
00:53:13Throw her out!
00:53:14You do realize that there is no investment meeting without me?
00:53:20Interesting turn of events.
00:53:22Perhaps it's time we shed some light on your mysterious past.
00:53:26Do you actually think that just because you have the name Laura,
00:53:30that you're the missing heiress, Laura Lewis?
00:53:32You know what?
00:53:36Maybe you're right, Chloe.
00:53:38How ridiculous.
00:53:39Is that what you've been telling everyone?
00:53:41I'm sure that the Duke family still values cooperation,
00:53:46but wow, did I underestimate your foolishness, Chloe?
00:53:52You have no right to talk to Miss Duke like that.
00:53:55That's enough.
00:53:56You don't get to talk here.
00:53:58You got mad, Shepard.
00:53:59You don't get to go against Miss Duke.
00:54:01And the same applies to everyone else here.
00:54:03Anyone who insults Laura.
00:54:06Leave us with a black eye.
00:54:08She's willing to defend the chick for her.
00:54:10What kind of charm does she have?
00:54:12I want to be careful, Brian.
00:54:14Don't forget that this entire hotel chain is owned by the Lewis group.
00:54:18Are you willing to get blacklisted for this public tantrum?
00:54:21The Lewis group isn't blacklisting anyone,
00:54:25especially not Shepard group.
00:54:27Lewis group RS, you?
00:54:34Don't make me laugh.
00:54:36Security, remove these two imposters from the premises.
00:54:40Wait, Uncle Jones.
00:54:42Give Brian another chance.
00:54:44Choose, Brian.
00:54:46Me and the future you deserve, or this fraud.
00:54:51Chloe, I have everything I ever wanted right here.
00:54:56And I wouldn't trade all the power that took so long, I ever wanted.
00:55:01Fine.
00:55:08Short the stock of the Shepard group.
00:55:09What?
00:55:12You forced my hand, Brian.
00:55:14Now Shepard group is ruined.
00:55:16The Duke family, they can't be serious.
00:55:19Shepard group is doomed.
00:55:21Brian, you don't have to do this for me.
00:55:24Laura, I will never let anyone bully you, let alone them.
00:55:31Thank you, Brian, for believing in me, for protecting me.
00:55:39Now it's my turn to protect you.
00:55:42Listen carefully.
00:55:50I need you to protect the Shepard group's stock at all costs.
00:55:56Don't let it drop even one cent.
00:56:00Do you understand?
00:56:01Well, award-winning performance, Laura.
00:56:06But you can't possibly control the stock market.
00:56:09I want to put your money where your mouth is, Chloe.
00:56:13If the Shepard stock holds for the next five minutes,
00:56:21you owe me a public apology.
00:56:30Deal.
00:56:35Well, looks like your five minutes is up.
00:56:40Let's see how the Shepard stock is doing.
00:56:42What the?
00:56:48The Shepard group's stock prices?
00:56:50It's going up!
00:56:52This can't be happening.
00:56:53It must be a coincidence.
00:57:00Why didn't you short the stock like I asked?
00:57:03There was a huge investment.
00:57:05We couldn't compete.
00:57:06Shepard's stock price is being heavily supported.
00:57:10How did you do this?
00:57:11Like I said, Chloe,
00:57:14I'm Laura Lewis.
00:57:18No, you're not.
00:57:19You're just some cleaner.
00:57:20You don't have access to billions.
00:57:23Well,
00:57:24I think it's time for my apology.
00:57:31No.
00:57:33I think it's time for my apology.
00:57:35There is no way I'm apologizing to you.
00:57:38If things were the other way,
00:57:39would you be so quick to forgive me?
00:57:42Chloe,
00:57:42the truth is,
00:57:44everyone here
00:57:46has seen you be a bully
00:57:48and a coward
00:57:50and now
00:57:52a sore loser.
00:57:55This is so humiliating for her.
00:57:58How did she manage that?
00:58:00Maybe she really is a Lewis.
00:58:03Apologize to Miss Lewis.
00:58:05Shut up.
00:58:06Don't you dare talk about Miss Duke like that.
00:58:09Don't forget,
00:58:10the Duke family owned half of Maplewood.
00:58:12You don't lose her, Miss.
00:58:14Let's get out of here.
00:58:16Hold on.
00:58:19This
00:58:19is where I belong.
00:58:22And that
00:58:23is my chair.
00:58:26You can't go there.
00:58:27That is the VIP section.
00:58:29Only those invited
00:58:30by the Lewis Group vice presidents
00:58:32get to sit there.
00:58:33Like I said,
00:58:35Chloe,
00:58:35that's my seat.
00:58:37I had a rumor floating
00:58:44around a few days ago.
00:58:45Seems Miss Lewis
00:58:47caused quite a scene
00:58:48at a signing ceremony
00:58:50between her ex
00:58:51and
00:58:51Mr. Shepherd,
00:58:53wasn't it?
00:58:54Are you planning another
00:58:55outburst, Laura?
00:58:56Is this how you charm
00:58:57all your men?
00:58:59Shall we?
00:59:00My pleasure.
00:59:02What are you doing?
00:59:04Let go.
00:59:06It doesn't matter what happened.
00:59:07I choose to stay by Laura's side.
00:59:10Let's go.
00:59:12Don't be absurd.
00:59:14That seat is reserved
00:59:14for a very important guest.
00:59:17Someone so esteemed,
00:59:19even the vice presidents
00:59:21have to bow low.
00:59:24And
00:59:24how
00:59:26exactly,
00:59:28Mr. Jones?
00:59:29Are you so sure
00:59:30that I'm
00:59:31not that esteemed guest?
00:59:33Wait,
00:59:34that's Peter Young,
00:59:35director of business affairs
00:59:36at Lewis Group.
00:59:41Ask Peter Young.
00:59:42He decides which investments are they.
00:59:43It's Chloe Duke,
00:59:45head of Duke Industries.
00:59:46So glad you could join us.
00:59:47Why is everyone standing around?
00:59:49It's her.
00:59:50She's making a huge scene
00:59:51trying to claim the VIP seat.
00:59:53It's embarrassing.
00:59:55That seat's reserved
00:59:56for the Lewis Group VIP guest.
00:59:58Specifically the family heir.
01:00:01Please get off the stage.
01:00:03Oh yes.
01:00:04Mr. Young?
01:00:06Was it?
01:00:06I think I remember you.
01:00:08You manage
01:00:09my family's investments.
01:00:12Don't pretend like
01:00:13you know what's going on.
01:00:15Please get off the stage.
01:00:16That seat's reserved
01:00:17for the Lewis family heir.
01:00:19I need to make one thing
01:00:20crystal clear.
01:00:26I
01:00:27am the heir
01:00:29of the Lewis family.
01:00:32This is ridiculous.
01:00:36You,
01:00:37the Lewis heir.
01:00:38Don't you know that
01:00:39Miss Lewis is a legend
01:00:40around here?
01:00:41You must be out of your mind
01:00:42trusting a complete stranger
01:00:44like this.
01:00:44Exactly.
01:00:45We ran a background check
01:00:46on her
01:00:47and it turns out
01:00:48she's just some cleaner
01:00:49that used to work
01:00:50for the Harrison Group.
01:00:51Before that,
01:00:52I could see her
01:00:53in my fabulous supermarket.
01:00:55See, Brian?
01:00:56This is who you've been
01:00:57chasing after.
01:00:58A liar and a cheat?
01:01:00Security.
01:01:01Get this imposter
01:01:02out of here.
01:01:03Everyone here
01:01:04is a witness.
01:01:05Why would any of you
01:01:06trust Laura?
01:01:08If any of you
01:01:09dares to harm her,
01:01:11you have to go
01:01:12through me first.
01:01:14Brian,
01:01:15she's just a nobody.
01:01:17She's just someone
01:01:18that the Harrison Group
01:01:19ditched.
01:01:20They didn't even want her.
01:01:22What exactly
01:01:22do you see in her?
01:01:24Escort this imposter
01:01:24out of here.
01:01:26Now!
01:01:27Oh, Peter.
01:01:35Peter,
01:01:36do you have any idea
01:01:37what you're doing?
01:01:39Mr. Yates.
01:01:40I'm so glad
01:01:41you could join us.
01:01:44Miss Lewis,
01:01:45sorry about the delay
01:01:46and for all the trouble
01:01:48you've had to put up with.
01:01:49It's no trouble,
01:01:51Mr. Yates.
01:01:52Luckily,
01:01:53I haven't been alone.
01:01:54I've had the great company
01:01:56of my very loyal
01:01:57friend.
01:02:00Wait a minute.
01:02:02She's Miss Lewis.
01:02:02Is this a joke?
01:02:04Mr. Young,
01:02:05you're new to the Lewis Group,
01:02:07so I can understand
01:02:09why you wouldn't recognize
01:02:10Miss Lewis.
01:02:11But you listened to lies
01:02:13without checking the facts
01:02:14and almost called the police.
01:02:17Tell me,
01:02:20Mr. Young,
01:02:21who put you up to this?
01:02:23Was it my uncle,
01:02:24Ian Lewis?
01:02:28I knew it.
01:02:29Consider this your
01:02:33termination.
01:02:36I get it now.
01:02:37This is all an act,
01:02:39right?
01:02:40Chloe,
01:02:40what are you doing?
01:02:41We still want to work
01:02:41with the Lewis family.
01:02:42Work with them?
01:02:43Are you blind?
01:02:44This woman is clearly
01:02:45having an affair
01:02:46with this old man.
01:02:48That's enough,
01:02:48young lady.
01:02:49You've got no right
01:02:51to disrespect the head
01:02:51of the Lewis Group.
01:02:52Oh, Chloe.
01:02:56I can't believe
01:02:56we're going through
01:02:57this again.
01:02:58I think you need
01:02:59some professional help.
01:03:02Maybe I could make you
01:03:02an appointment
01:03:03with a great psychiatrist.
01:03:04Chloe,
01:03:05that's enough.
01:03:06It's ridiculous.
01:03:07If you were really
01:03:08the Lewis family heir,
01:03:09you would have the ring.
01:03:10So why don't you
01:03:11show it to everyone?
01:03:12Show us the ring!
01:03:16Why don't you show
01:03:17that to everyone?
01:03:18Show us the ring!
01:03:19Show us the ring!
01:03:20Show us the ring!
01:03:21Who?
01:03:22are you
01:03:22to make demands
01:03:23of me?
01:03:25I don't answer
01:03:25to anyone
01:03:26but myself.
01:03:28I don't need
01:03:29any
01:03:30of your validation.
01:03:34Oh, this ring!
01:03:35Oh, my God!
01:03:37Wow!
01:03:39Vice Presidents!
01:03:41I'm Chloe Duke
01:03:42of the Duke family.
01:03:44This woman
01:03:44is an imposter!
01:03:45Miss Lewis,
01:03:47we apologize
01:03:48for the delay.
01:03:49How could you
01:03:49just let that con woman
01:03:50sit there?
01:03:51Get her out of here!
01:03:53This seat
01:03:53was always
01:03:54for Ms. Lewis.
01:03:56She's the special guest
01:03:57we've been waiting for.
01:03:59The investment queen.
01:04:01The real heir
01:04:02to Lewis Group.
01:04:04Laura Lewis!
01:04:06She's a divorced
01:04:07host wife.
01:04:07A janitor.
01:04:08How can she?
01:04:09She can't be.
01:04:10It's a lie.
01:04:11I'm telling you,
01:04:11it's a lie.
01:04:12Do you think we'd lie?
01:04:14We run Lewis Group.
01:04:17Oh, Chloe.
01:04:18You assaulted me
01:04:20earlier.
01:04:21And you came to this meeting
01:04:23to what?
01:04:24Sabotage it.
01:04:26You'll be hearing
01:04:27from our legal team.
01:04:29Is this true,
01:04:32Mr. Duke?
01:04:33Did you try and
01:04:34sabotage this meeting?
01:04:36Yes.
01:04:37It's all true.
01:04:38She fooled us all.
01:04:40The Duke tricked us
01:04:41to keep
01:04:42Lewis Group
01:04:42out of Maplewood
01:04:44and control
01:04:44everything themselves.
01:04:46I had no idea.
01:04:47But I'm on your side.
01:04:50I can give you
01:04:51everything you need.
01:04:52All the resources
01:04:53in Maplewood.
01:04:54Miss Lewis,
01:04:55how would you like
01:04:56us to deal with this?
01:04:58An eye
01:04:59for an eye.
01:05:03Since
01:05:03Miss Duke
01:05:05here
01:05:06loves
01:05:07ruining things,
01:05:09I'll target
01:05:10her precious
01:05:11Duke
01:05:12Industries.
01:05:14I want them
01:05:15bankrupt in
01:05:16ten minutes.
01:05:18You're bluffing.
01:05:19You're nobody.
01:05:20You'll always be
01:05:21a nobody.
01:05:22And you can't
01:05:22touch me.
01:05:24Then,
01:05:24consider this
01:05:25a test,
01:05:27Chloe.
01:05:28I didn't need
01:05:29my family's support
01:05:30with Shepard
01:05:30and I certainly
01:05:32don't need it now.
01:05:32Chloe,
01:05:33you dug
01:05:34your own grave.
01:05:36You think
01:05:36you can destroy
01:05:38Maplewood's leading
01:05:39family with just
01:05:39the Shepard group?
01:05:41Please.
01:05:42Hmm.
01:05:44We'll see.
01:05:50Dad?
01:05:52Slow down.
01:05:53What are you
01:05:53talking about?
01:05:54No.
01:05:58It's impossible.
01:06:00Chloe,
01:06:00what have you
01:06:01done?
01:06:02Years of hard work
01:06:03destroyed in minutes.
01:06:08What did you
01:06:09do?
01:06:10Well,
01:06:11Chloe,
01:06:13isn't this what
01:06:14you wanted?
01:06:15To give me a little
01:06:16taste of destruction?
01:06:17This is impossible.
01:06:20It's impossible!
01:06:21Chloe,
01:06:22what have you done?
01:06:24The news is everywhere.
01:06:26Shepard's launched
01:06:27a full-scale assault
01:06:28on the stock market.
01:06:29They're hammering
01:06:30our shares.
01:06:31Are you sure
01:06:33it's just Shepard?
01:06:33Yes!
01:06:34Shareholders
01:06:35are dumping
01:06:36our stock
01:06:37like it's a hot potato.
01:06:38We could go bankrupt.
01:06:40You've ruined everything!
01:06:41Don't worry,
01:06:42don't worry,
01:06:42Mr. Duke.
01:06:43When your company
01:06:45does go bankrupt,
01:06:46I'll buy it
01:06:47at a fire sale price.
01:06:49Your employees
01:06:49won't even be affected.
01:06:51Brilliant!
01:06:52A masterstroke,
01:06:53Miss Lewis.
01:06:55Now,
01:06:56this
01:06:57is my event.
01:06:59Please leave.
01:07:00Brian,
01:07:01I did this for us!
01:07:03Everything I did,
01:07:04I did for us,
01:07:04Brian!
01:07:07Chloe,
01:07:07you need help.
01:07:10These feelings
01:07:11you have for me,
01:07:12it's not love.
01:07:15It's obsession.
01:07:17Enough!
01:07:18If you don't want
01:07:19to ruin everything
01:07:20completely,
01:07:20you'll come with me
01:07:21right now.
01:07:23Luke!
01:07:24Right now!
01:07:26Luke!
01:07:26Luke!
01:07:31Luke!
01:07:33Laura!
01:07:34This isn't over!
01:07:36Help me!
01:07:37What is going on here?
01:07:44Did they finally
01:07:45expose Laura's lies?
01:07:46Shepard Group.
01:07:47They're the new partner
01:07:48that's partnering up
01:07:49with Lewis Group
01:07:50from Maplewood.
01:07:51They're handling
01:07:52all future construction projects.
01:07:54That can't be.
01:07:55What about us?
01:07:56That was our project.
01:07:58Remember,
01:07:58Laura teamed up
01:07:59with Brian.
01:08:00Harrison Group
01:08:01is practically out.
01:08:02We have no chance.
01:08:03We can't give up
01:08:04that easily.
01:08:05Remember,
01:08:06Ian Lewis himself
01:08:07appointed me
01:08:08as general manager.
01:08:09In a few days,
01:08:10he promised that
01:08:11he would let us
01:08:11meet with a new heir.
01:08:13You're right.
01:08:14If we can just
01:08:14meet with a new heir,
01:08:15we can bypass
01:08:16the Shepards
01:08:17and meet directly
01:08:18with the Lewis Group.
01:08:19We just have to
01:08:20play their little game
01:08:21and see who comes out
01:08:22and see who comes out
01:08:22on top.
01:08:24Sure.
01:08:27Vice Presidents,
01:08:29allow me to introduce
01:08:31my associate,
01:08:32Brian Shepard.
01:08:33I'm sure I've mentioned him before.
01:08:35Mr. Shepard,
01:08:37finally a pleasure
01:08:37to meet you.
01:08:38We've looked into
01:08:39your company's
01:08:40financial review.
01:08:42Very impressive.
01:08:45Thank you, bud.
01:08:46A large part
01:08:47of that success
01:08:48is next to Ms. Lewis.
01:08:49No.
01:08:50She practically
01:08:51saved me from disaster
01:08:53three times over now.
01:08:55Brian,
01:08:55you can just call me Laura.
01:08:57Ms. Lewis' recommendation
01:08:59is very telling,
01:09:01Mr. Shepard.
01:09:02Perhaps today
01:09:03clarifies everything.
01:09:05Mr. Shepard,
01:09:06this opportunity
01:09:07is gone.
01:09:09Seize it.
01:09:09A woman like Laura
01:09:11is not easy to find.
01:09:14Thank you for your
01:09:14kind words,
01:09:15Mr. Vice President.
01:09:24Did Laura send you
01:09:25to kill me?
01:09:26Laura?
01:09:27Hardly.
01:09:29I'm Ian Lewis,
01:09:30CEO and rightful heir
01:09:32of the Lewis Group.
01:09:35So you're
01:09:36Laura's uncle?
01:09:37In the flesh.
01:09:39So Laura really
01:09:40is your niece?
01:09:42Yes,
01:09:43little Laura.
01:09:44She just threw away
01:09:45her birthright
01:09:46about two,
01:09:47three years ago.
01:09:48Ran off and married
01:09:49a nobody
01:09:50from Maplewood.
01:09:51I think he was
01:09:52a Harrison.
01:09:53Now Laura's got
01:09:54the VPs
01:09:55and Mr. Yates
01:09:55on her side.
01:09:57Did you hear
01:09:57she's throwing
01:09:57a banquet in a few
01:09:58days to announce
01:09:59her official takeover?
01:10:00And we can't
01:10:01let that happen,
01:10:02can we, my dear?
01:10:04If you're
01:10:05Ian Lewis,
01:10:05wouldn't you have
01:10:06the family ring?
01:10:07Well, my dear,
01:10:08that's where you
01:10:09come in,
01:10:10Miss Duke.
01:10:10We need you
01:10:11to relinquish
01:10:12my ring.
01:10:14What if I,
01:10:15what if I fail?
01:10:16My family
01:10:17is already
01:10:17ruined.
01:10:18Yes, you are
01:10:19in a spot of bother,
01:10:20I must say.
01:10:22But,
01:10:23if successful,
01:10:24I guarantee
01:10:25that you
01:10:25and the Duke
01:10:26family
01:10:27will get back
01:10:28everything you've
01:10:29lost.
01:10:30Laura's got the
01:10:30VPs and Brian
01:10:31on her side.
01:10:32How can I possibly
01:10:33get the ring?
01:10:34There is a way,
01:10:35you know,
01:10:36that we can make
01:10:37Laura relinquish
01:10:39and give up
01:10:40that ring
01:10:40willingly.
01:10:43Laura, my dear,
01:10:44welcome.
01:10:45Uncle Ian,
01:10:47it's so good
01:10:48to see you.
01:10:52Laura.
01:10:53It's so good
01:10:53to see you.
01:10:54And you,
01:10:55it's been
01:10:56too long,
01:10:57two,
01:10:58three years,
01:10:59perhaps.
01:11:00How have you
01:11:00been?
01:11:01I've been well,
01:11:02Uncle Ian.
01:11:03Thank you for
01:11:04asking.
01:11:05I see you've
01:11:06been busy
01:11:06keeping Lewis
01:11:07Group afloat.
01:11:09Yes.
01:11:09Kind of been easy.
01:11:10Indeed,
01:11:11somebody had to.
01:11:12I mean,
01:11:13after you left
01:11:13me with everything
01:11:14to do,
01:11:15without a safe
01:11:16pair of hands,
01:11:16I hate to think
01:11:17what would have
01:11:17happened to the
01:11:18company.
01:11:20Actually,
01:11:20Uncle Ian,
01:11:21from what I've
01:11:22heard,
01:11:23you've lost
01:11:24billions with
01:11:25some questionable
01:11:26investment decisions.
01:11:28Yes.
01:11:28minor mistakes,
01:11:30minor.
01:11:31Don't worry,
01:11:32Uncle Ian,
01:11:33I won't hold
01:11:33it against you.
01:11:34Oh,
01:11:35good.
01:11:36Well,
01:11:37cheers to you
01:11:38coming back here
01:11:39and the Lewis
01:11:41Group.
01:11:43Oh,
01:11:44I'm so sorry,
01:11:46Laura,
01:11:47how clumsy of me.
01:11:48No,
01:11:49no worries,
01:11:50Uncle Ian,
01:11:50I,
01:11:51I'll just go
01:11:52to the restroom
01:11:53and get cleaned up.
01:11:55Of course.
01:11:56Right away,
01:11:57just down to the left.
01:11:58Use it wisely.
01:12:06Oh,
01:12:06I will.
01:12:20Hey,
01:12:22Laura,
01:12:22how's that?
01:12:24Hello,
01:12:24Brian.
01:12:24Your little
01:12:25girlfriend
01:12:26is with me
01:12:26now.
01:12:27Chloe,
01:12:28how in the hell
01:12:30did you get
01:12:30Laura's phone?
01:12:31Let's just say
01:12:32that I have
01:12:32my ways.
01:12:34Listen,
01:12:35Chloe,
01:12:36don't hurt her.
01:12:38Please,
01:12:39I'll do anything.
01:12:42Come to the abandoned
01:12:43warehouse
01:12:44in the eastern
01:12:44suburbs,
01:12:46now.
01:12:46don't tell anyone
01:12:49if you want
01:12:50her alive.
01:12:53Well,
01:12:53you certainly
01:12:54do have
01:12:54your ways.
01:12:59Oh,
01:12:59thank goodness
01:13:00you've cleared up.
01:13:01I am sorry,
01:13:01how clumsy.
01:13:03And don't forget
01:13:03your phone,
01:13:04I retrieved it
01:13:04for you.
01:13:06Lovely to see you
01:13:08again.
01:13:08Yeah,
01:13:09I guess I'll see
01:13:10you the day
01:13:10after tomorrow
01:13:11at the banquet.
01:13:12At the banquet.
01:13:15I'll see you then.
01:13:16Will do.
01:13:17Looking forward
01:13:18to it.
01:13:21Laura!
01:13:22Laura!
01:13:23Where are you?
01:13:24Laura!
01:13:26Laura!
01:13:27Where are you?
01:13:29Laura!
01:13:30Laura,
01:13:31where are you?
01:13:32Laura!
01:13:35Go shut your mouth.
01:14:01Chloe,
01:14:02what have you done?
01:14:04you out of your mind?
01:14:05Out of my mind.
01:14:07You were the one
01:14:08that left me
01:14:08for that tram
01:14:09and destroyed my life.
01:14:10That's not true.
01:14:12You were the one
01:14:12who messed up.
01:14:13Brian!
01:14:14Laura!
01:14:17Stay where you are.
01:14:19You better
01:14:20come alone.
01:14:22Shut this knife,
01:14:23Chloe.
01:14:23This is insane.
01:14:25Insane?
01:14:26I did this
01:14:27for us,
01:14:27Brian.
01:14:29We were meant
01:14:29to be together.
01:14:31Us?
01:14:32You've gone crazy.
01:14:33and you're out of here.
01:14:35Chloe,
01:14:36kidnapping
01:14:37is a very
01:14:38serious event.
01:14:40They're going to lock you
01:14:40up for years.
01:14:42You think I care
01:14:43about jail time?
01:14:45All I care about
01:14:46is tearing you
01:14:46to the party.
01:14:47You don't deserve him.
01:14:50What you've done,
01:14:51you've destroyed my life,
01:14:54my company,
01:14:55everything.
01:14:56Now I'm going to
01:14:57destroy your life.
01:14:59Give you
01:15:00your family ring now.
01:15:01Give it to me!
01:15:03This is about
01:15:04the ring.
01:15:06Did my uncle Ian
01:15:07put you up to this?
01:15:09You know,
01:15:10Chloe,
01:15:10trying to kill me,
01:15:13that's foolish.
01:15:15Because who do you
01:15:16think is going to win?
01:15:18You?
01:15:20That will not hurt.
01:15:21Or
01:15:21me?
01:15:23Something a little bit
01:15:25more persuasive.
01:15:26Freeze!
01:15:35Don't move,
01:15:36anyone.
01:15:39Don't move.
01:15:40You're about to be
01:15:41arrested for kidnapping.
01:15:43Miss Lewis,
01:15:45having fun without me?
01:15:47I'm hurt.
01:15:48Are you hurt?
01:15:51No,
01:15:52I'm okay.
01:15:52Tell me,
01:15:56Chloe,
01:15:57who put you up
01:15:59to this,
01:16:00Chloe?
01:16:01Why should I tell you?
01:16:02You're going to kill me anyway.
01:16:05Chloe,
01:16:05I don't have a problem
01:16:06with you.
01:16:07But if you don't talk,
01:16:10your beloved
01:16:11Duke Industries
01:16:13might run into some.
01:16:15Well,
01:16:15I'm recording everything,
01:16:16Miss Lewis.
01:16:16So the choice is yours,
01:16:19Chloe.
01:16:20Talk,
01:16:21or face the consequences.
01:16:23Fine.
01:16:24It was Ian Lewis.
01:16:26He,
01:16:26he said he'd help Duke Industries
01:16:28if I kept you away
01:16:29from the bankers today.
01:16:32Did you get all of that,
01:16:33Mr. Yates?
01:16:34I'm recording everything,
01:16:35Miss Lewis.
01:16:39Oh,
01:16:39every word,
01:16:40Miss Lewis.
01:16:41Are you ready to play a game,
01:16:43Brian?
01:16:43I'm recording everything,
01:16:43I'm recording everything,
01:16:43I'm recording everything,
01:16:44I'm recording everything,
01:16:45I'm recording everything,
01:16:46This is crazy.
01:16:55Are we really sure
01:16:56we can do this?
01:16:57All these big companies here,
01:16:58it's crazy.
01:16:59Absolutely.
01:17:00The Lewis Group
01:17:01is under new leadership.
01:17:02We can talk to the heiress herself.
01:17:05Exactly.
01:17:05We just need to make sure
01:17:06we make a good impression
01:17:07on the new heir.
01:17:09There's Ian Lewis now.
01:17:11You can introduce us,
01:17:12let's go.
01:17:13Yeah.
01:17:15Hello,
01:17:16Ian Lewis. I'm Amber Smith. We spoke on the phone the other day. This is Ben Harrison from Harrison
01:17:21Group. How do you do? We're the company. Yes, I know who you are. Smith, you're the one who exposed
01:17:27Laura's little drama. Now look, I'm not here for idle chatter. Good evening, ladies and gentlemen.
01:17:37Could I ask you all to be seated, please? Thank you. The moment you've all been waiting for.
01:17:43Tonight marks a new chapter in the life of the Lewis Group. A night where the rightful
01:17:49heir takes their place. Would you please join me in welcoming the heir to the Lewis Group,
01:17:55Miss Laura Lewis. Look, everybody, attention. Attention, please. There's been a recent development
01:18:04of some tragedy. I just got notice from a phone call a couple of minutes ago that Laura has
01:18:11been in a car accident. And tragically, she hasn't made it. She has not survived.
01:18:21What? Laura Lewis is dead? It doesn't matter now. She's gone.
01:18:26Mr. Lewis, is this new... A tragic turn of events, Mr. Yates. But rest
01:18:31assured, the Lewis Group will continue under my competent leadership.
01:18:37Hold on. Who said that I'm dead?
01:18:41Laura.
01:18:47I don't understand. What's happening?
01:18:50Laura? But weren't you...
01:18:53My apologies for the delay, everyone. There seems to be some... misunderstanding.
01:18:59Laura, what are you doing here? You gotta stop this. If you upset the Lewis family anymore,
01:19:04we're all doomed.
01:19:05I'll save this once. Back off, then.
01:19:08Thank you for coming, everyone. As I'm sure you know, tonight, I officially reclaim my title
01:19:22as the CEO of Lewis Group.
01:19:27Perhaps you could make some room for me. Uncle Ian?
01:19:31How are you still alive?
01:19:33Well, clearly I am alive and well, so why don't we get this started?
01:19:38No. You're not the rightful heir. You gave that away when you married Ben Harrison.
01:19:46Uncle Ian, is that seriously your argument that you have, that I got married too quickly?
01:19:51Well, you went off to Maplewood three years ago and married a stranger
01:19:54and left me to work tirelessly, keeping the company together.
01:19:58Uncle Ian, retire.
01:20:00Enjoy your retirement.
01:20:03Lewis Group will be perfectly fine without you.
01:20:06No. There can only be one heir, and that's me.
01:20:10And the rightful heir has possession of this.
01:20:15You think a ring makes an heir?
01:20:18You're even more foolish than I could have ever imagined.
01:20:22Give that back to me.
01:20:24This?
01:20:25Yes.
01:20:26You think some shiny gold thing makes you the heir?
01:20:30Give it back.
01:20:32True leadership is about earning the respect of those around you.
01:20:38Not some stupid thing.
01:20:40I'm a ring.
01:20:41I'm a ring.
01:20:42What have you done? Where is it?
01:20:43I'm a ring.
01:20:44Oh, fuck.
01:20:45Now, everyone, if I could have your attention.
01:20:47I'm a baby.
01:20:48Now, let me show you how a true heir earns a ring like that.
01:20:50your attention. Now, let me show you how a true heir earns a ring like that.
01:21:03Fine. It was Ian Lewis. He said he'd help juking the streets if I kept you away from the bankers today.
01:21:09Oh, quite the spectacle, Mr Lewis. Security, escort him out. And Ian, don't fall over.
01:21:20It's all lies. It's all lies. Fakery.
01:21:23The truth is clear. Get him out of here. Now.
01:21:30I owe all of you an apology for everything that's happened tonight. It turns out reclaiming my
01:21:36birthright didn't go as smoothly as I had hoped. Luckily, these past few days I've had
01:21:45Mr Shepherd by my side and he has been a great support. Lewis Group has a lot of exciting plans
01:21:55for Maplewood. I'm proud to announce that we have secured a reliable partner.
01:22:06Shepherd Group. What? Laura, hold on. This was never my idea. This was all Kathy and Amber's fault.
01:22:13I don't want a divorce. What? Ben, what are you saying? You came to me first.
01:22:17Classic Ben. Something goes wrong and you start pointing the fingers at all the women in your life.
01:22:23Just don't shut Harrison Group out. Just give me another chance.
01:22:27How could I shut you out? I'm just a cleaner, remember? I'm just a useless housewife. I don't have that power.
01:22:38What are you talking about? What? No, come on. Sorry. No, please. No.
01:22:43Um, Mr Shepherd? Yes, Miss Lewis? I was wondering if...
01:22:48Maybe you wanted to grab dinner. Sometime. On me. Miss Lewis?
01:23:01I would love to.
01:23:18You're welcome.
01:23:44Come on.
01:23:45I still haven't got my money yet.
