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?
00:00:34Well, looks like Shepard Group might be bankrupt by lunchtime.
00:00:44Hey, this is a private meeting.
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.
00:01:05Do 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.
00:01:17This is incredible!
00:01:19What's going on?
00:01:20What's your running 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.
00:01:34They're still cleaning to do Mr. Shepard Day.
00:01:37Hold on.
00:01:38Tell me.
00:01:39How 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.
00:01:51Jason, can we have a fight now?
00:02:08Mr. Yates!
00:02:10What, only two bodyguards this time?
00:02:13You're not going soft on me are you?
00:02:15No ma'am, I just thought you might like discreet today.
00:02:19Now listen, everyone is waiting in New York for you to claim your inheritance as CEO of the Lewis Group.
00:02:24Mr. Yates, you know that my investigations here aren't finished.
00:02:28Ma'am, I still don't understand why you've kept your identity a secret and why you've married this Ben Harrison fellow.
00:02:34Look, today is Ben's birthday.
00:02:36Anything we need to discuss, we can do it some other time.
00:02:40Ma'am, it really is time for you to accept your inheritance.
00:02:44Because what I want is a simple life.
00:02:47With Ben.
00:02:49Ma'am, at least do me a favor and let Toby walk you onto the house.
00:02:54For my sake.
00:03:05Divorce papers, sign it.
00:03:14Why?
00:03:15You are not worthy of my son anymore.
00:03:18The Harrison Group is practically a local celebrity now, especially since it's landed a $100 million contract with 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.
00:03:38You, a cleaning woman, handing out million dollar deals. Don't make me laugh.
00:03:48I did. It was my present to Ben for his birthday.
00:03:52I was the one who got Brian Harrison to give Ben that deal.
00:03:55What are you doing here?
00:03:58Clearly, Ben has found himself a woman more suitable for the Harrison family.
00:04:02Amber's family is practically local 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 alongside janitor, doesn't it, Ben?
00:04:18Ben?
00:04:21What's going on?
00:04:23Is this why you want a divorce?
00:04:25Because of her?
00:04:26Oh, please.
00:04:27I've spent years building Harrison Group.
00:04:30You're still a cleaner.
00:04:31We just grew apart, that's all.
00:04:34Growing apart?
00:04:36No.
00:04:38No, I won't sign any agreement then.
00:04:43I won't sign anything.
00:04:45Money 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.
00:05:05Do you have any idea how much money I've brought in for you?
00:05:08Don't be ridiculous.
00:05:10You've never done anything for Ben's success.
00:05:12This is our act of charity to award you.
00:05:14Here.
00:05:15A million dollars.
00:05:16Take this.
00:05:17You just want more money, don't you?
00:05:20Just 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 threatening us.
00:05:36I'm so scared.
00:05:38Just leave.
00:05:39You already make this house stink.
00:05:48Thank God she's gone.
00:05:50Go to the written store.
00:05:52What is the problem?
00:05:54Sir?
00:05:55Laura Lewis's information.
00:06:00She's Ben Harrison's wife.
00:06:02No wonder why she wanted us to part with them.
00:06:05Actually sir, Ben Harrison just divorced her.
00:06:08Divorced 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.
00:06:18Yeah.
00:06:20She saved our hiding now.
00:06:21Remember?
00:06:23Why would Ben Harrison dump someone who just got him a hundred million dollar contract?
00:06:26I don't know.
00:06:31Let's get to the final news.
00:06:35Hey!
00:06:36What are you doing?
00:06:37Let go of me!
00:06:38You attacked Amber.
00:06:39Apologize this instant.
00:06:43Stealing from the Harrisons.
00:06:46We gave you a generous divorce settlement.
00:06:47You refused it.
00:06:48And now you're stealing.
00:06:50She couldn't afford it.
00:06:51You're a thief.
00:06:56That's mine! Give it back!
00:07:01That'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.
00:07:15You see, it's...
00:07:17Who are you?
00:07:18Laura's new squeeze.
00:07:19Excuse me.
00:07:20Do you know who I am?
00:07:21Is this true?
00:07:22You hooked up with this man while you were married to my son?
00:07:25Shame on you!
00:07:26Mr. Shepard, I'm...
00:07:27For your information, my name is Brian Shepard.
00:07:31I'm CEO of the Shepard Group.
00:07:33Oh, please.
00:07:34A big shot like Brian Shepard wouldn't be caught dead with a cleaner.
00:07:37You really don't recognize him, do you, Amber?
00:07:40That's really interesting considering I thought you were the one that secured that contract for Ben.
00:07:46That's ridiculous.
00:07:47He doesn't look like that.
00:07:49My ring.
00:07:50Jason, give it back, please.
00:07:52Hey, what are you doing?
00:07:53Here we go.
00:07:56Laura, let's get you out of here.
00:07:58Now.
00:07:59Hold on a minute, Laura.
00:08:00Who the heck is this man or have you been sneaking around?
00:08:04It's a lie, ma'am.
00:08:05This is none of your business.
00:08:07All rabbed dead bodies.
00:08:08You're not going anywhere until I tell you tell us what's going on.
00:08:12We are the Harrisons.
00:08:13You can't just waltz in here and take her.
00:08:15Harrison, compared to the Shepard Group, you're nobody.
00:08:18Now go back.
00:08:19What?
00:08:20Are you saying that is Brian Shepard?
00:08:22That's a lie.
00:08:23Don't you dare walk away from me, Laura.
00:08:25You come back here and explain yourself.
00:08:27Don't you take another step towards my son, Laura.
00:08:31Laura, 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.
00:08:47Maybe we should cancel it?
00:08:48No.
00:08:49Um.
00:08:50No.
00:08:51The 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?
00:09:03Truly.
00:09:04You'll find out.
00:09:06Mr. Shepard.
00:09:08Um, can you pull up over here, please?
00:09:10Mr. Yates, I want you to call all of the Lewis Group's business partners and we're going
00:09:20to have a meeting, an investment meeting, one week from today.
00:09:26Make sure everyone is there.
00:09:31Because after that meeting, I'm going to reclaim my place as the CEO of Lewis Group.
00:09:37Oh, excellent, Miss Lewis.
00:09:38I'll start making arrangements tomorrow.
00:09:41Ben Harrison, you're going to know exactly what it feels like to lose everything.
00:09:49After this ceremony, the Harrison family will finally be considered Maplewood City royalty.
00:09:59Only after then, my darling, we can get married.
00:10:03Laura, what are you doing here?
00:10:05Security?
00:10:06Get that woman out of here.
00:10:08We don't need cleaners at this event.
00:10:10Why wouldn't I be here?
00:10:11This is a business event, after all.
00:10:14Business?
00:10:15You wouldn't know business if I hit you on the head.
00:10:18A fancy dress doesn't make you high society, honey.
00:10:21Just get out.
00:10:22Don't tell me you've come looking for another rich man to play mistress for.
00:10:25You should have taken my $100,000 offer.
00:10:27Oh, Ben, do you really think that you can sign this contract without me?
00:10:32Laura, this is really important for me.
00:10:34Do not ruin this, okay?
00:10:36You don't belong here.
00:10:38Just get out!
00:10:44That's what you get.
00:10:48This contract is mine.
00:10:53To give or take away as I see fit.
00:10:57Don't be ridiculous.
00:10:58This is insane.
00:10:59Who do you think you are?
00:11:00Yeah, put that down.
00:11:01You have no idea what you're doing.
00:11:03Security?
00:11:04She's lost a mind.
00:11:06This is a disaster!
00:11:07Ben, this contract was supposed to be my birthday present to you, but since you clearly
00:11:13don't deserve it.
00:11:14You clearly don't deserve it.
00:11:18You really think ripping up that contract is going to help?
00:11:31You're so silly, Laura.
00:11:33Oh, please, honey.
00:11:34You couldn't explain business to a cleaning lady.
00:11:36Security, get this woman out of here before she makes another mess.
00:11:40I was the one that started this deal with the Shepherds.
00:11:41And after careful consideration, I don't think the Harrison family is worthy of working
00:11:45with the Shepherds.
00:11:46You really think that the Shepard group and I could be torn up by something that you've
00:11:53done?
00:11:54You have no authority here.
00:11:55Of course she has the authority.
00:11:56That's the man that Laura went with the other day.
00:12:01What is he doing here?
00:12:04Mr. Shepherd?
00:12:05Well, how does he know her?
00:12:07Is that her husband?
00:12:08How does he know her?
00:12:10Yeah.
00:12:11Do you think he knows her?
00:12:12And also, I think the dude with the Shepards?
00:12:14He is so ill.
00:12:15Yeah, I think he has no authority.
00:12:17Do you think that the Shepard group and I could be torn up by something that you've done?
00:12:20You have no authority here.
00:12:21Of course she has the authority.
00:12:22What is he doing here?
00:12:23Mr. Shepard?
00:12:24How does he know her?
00:12:25Is that really Brian Shepard?
00:12:27Laura, are you alright?
00:12:31Mr. Shepard, I can assure you, I don't even know this woman.
00:12:34There must be some sort of misunderstanding.
00:12:36There's no misunderstanding here, Mr. Harrison.
00:12:39This contract with Shepard Group is officially terminated.
00:12:43Effective immediately.
00:12:46Wait a minute.
00:12:47This contract, I thought you said you got it.
00:12:49It's her!
00:12:50She ruined the contract.
00:12:52You are his mistress, aren't you?
00:12:54An affair?
00:12:55She 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.
00:13:10You deserve to be-
00:13:11Shut up!
00:13:15Mr. Shepard, I apologize for this whole mess.
00:13:18But I can assure you, this woman has tricked you.
00:13:21Tricked?
00:13:23Why don't you answer a question yourself, Ben?
00:13:27What was my name before we got married?
00:13:31Laura Lewis, right?
00:13:33Lewis Group?
00:13:34The Financial Giants?
00:13:36There's no way a Lewis is connected to this.
00:13:39That's crazy.
00:13:41There's no way you're related to the Lewis family name.
00:13:44That's absurd.
00:13:45It's-
00:13:46It's-
00:13:47It's-
00:13:48It's absurd!
00:13:49A high society heiress wouldn't waste their time in Maplewood!
00:13:53Yeah.
00:13:54Yeah, it's a lie.
00:13:55It's a lie.
00:13:56This woman was a waitress when I met her.
00:13:58In fact, I saved her from a robbery three years ago.
00:14:00She's nothing special.
00:14:02She only married me out of gratitude.
00:14:04I was just a waitress.
00:14:07How convenient for your story, Ben.
00:14:10First time I met her, she wasn't even a waitress at the diner.
00:14:13Okay, listen up, everybody.
00:14:15When I met her, I'd only just started my business.
00:14:18Mm-hmm.
00:14:19Now look at me.
00:14:20I'm signing multi-million dollar contracts.
00:14:22And look at her.
00:14:23Still just declared.
00:14:24Mr. Shepard, that woman is my son's ex-wife.
00:14:28She's doing all this out of spite.
00:14:31She's lying, Mr. Shepard.
00:14:33She's just a cleaning lady for your business, isn't she?
00:14:38Let's make something clear.
00:14:40I was the one behind Harrison Group's success.
00:14:45I used my resources to help my ex-husband,
00:14:49but all he saw me as was the maid.
00:14:51Don't lie.
00:14:52You were never good enough for Ben when you married him.
00:14:55Oops.
00:14:56That roof was built with lies.
00:14:59Kathy, you never respected me.
00:15:01And Ben?
00:15:03Dumping me the second you thought you were successful on your own.
00:15:06And the cheating.
00:15:08I think you're blaming the wrong person.
00:15:12You were not good enough for Ben then,
00:15:14and 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.
00:15:23Consider this my resignation from the Harrisons.
00:15:26From everything.
00:15:32Wait, wait, wait.
00:15:33Laura, you think you can just walk in here and, you know, ruin everything?
00:15:35And then just walk out like nothing happened?
00:15:37I don't think so.
00:15:38You're a cleaner.
00:15:39You're a cleaner that cleans toilets.
00:15:41Nobody cares about you.
00:15:43Cleaning toilets or not, at least I have my self-respect.
00:15:48I don't need a fancy title or a rich husband to feel important.
00:15:54I think there has been some sort of misunderstanding.
00:15:58I think all jobs are important.
00:16:00Right, Mom?
00:16:01Ben, what are you doing?
00:16:03But I don't think that a janitor should have some sort of influence over a deal as big as this.
00:16:09A janitor.
00:16:10Well, 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.
00:16:22weren't you, Miss Smith?
00:16:24Mr. Shepard, it's all a lie.
00:16:26This woman, Laura, she's just a gold digger trying to trick you.
00:16:31I... but, well...
00:16:33A lie, you say?
00:16:34Miss Smith, I believe you mentioned securing this contract for Harrison Group.
00:16:38But I don't recognize you.
00:16:41Is this true, Miss Smith?
00:16:44Miss Lewis has helped me on several occasions.
00:16:47This contract was my way of showing my appreciation.
00:16:51But the contract...
00:16:53I mean, Laura tore it up.
00:16:55So can't we just print another one and get this signing ceremony underway?
00:17:00Reprint it, Mr. Harrison.
00:17:02Perhaps you haven't been paying attention without Miss Lewis involved.
00:17:06I wouldn't even consider partnering with your company.
00:17:14Today, I want to make it clear.
00:17:17Shepard Group has no plans to partner with Harrison Group in the future.
00:17:21Ms. Smith, you lied to us.
00:17:25You destroyed everything.
00:17:27What?
00:17:29No, it's a misunderstanding.
00:17:30I can explain.
00:17:32Lewis?
00:17:33Lewis Family Group?
00:17:34This can't be.
00:17:36Believe what you want, Ben.
00:17:38Lewis Group will be holding a massive investment meeting later this week.
00:17:42Three of our vice presidents will be here in Maplewood.
00:17:47And 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.
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.
00:18:16Ms. 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.
00:18:35Indeed.
00:18:37Perhaps it's best to leave them to it.
00:18:50What?
00:18:51What now?
00:18:52Mom, this is not all on me.
00:18:55Not on you!
00:18:56I was trying to help!
00:18:58She cheated on you with Shepard.
00:19:00Floated their affair.
00:19:01Exactly.
00:19:03And those dresses?
00:19:04Who could afford those on a janitor's salary?
00:19:08Ms. 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.
00:19:15I had no idea Shepard would fall for Bora.
00:19:18She's a liar!
00:19:19She's a liar!
00:19:20Oh, stop it Amber!
00:19:21You lied to us just as much as she did!
00:19:24Lied?
00:19:25You're on my side!
00:19:28And anyways, I have a plan.
00:19:30The Shepards are no one special.
00:19:33We can expose Laura in all her lies.
00:19:35Go national.
00:19:36We can make ourselves a household name.
00:19:40Now, if you'll excuse me, I have a very important phone call to you.
00:19:45The Shepards
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?
00:20:01Maybe a hotel?
00:20:02Don't...
00:20:03Don'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.
00:20:10Actually, Laura.
00:20:11There is something else.
00:20:13Would you consider going out for dinner sometime?
00:20:15Just 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 isn't exactly proper.
00:20:38Proper.
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!
00:21:20Who is it?
00:21:21Laura, wait!
00:21:23Jason, find out who owns that car.
00:21:27And do it fast.
00:21:28Iain Lewis, who is this?
00:21:37It's Amber Smith.
00:21:39Mr. Lewis?
00:21:41I'm sorry for the late call, but I believe I have some urgent information about your family.
00:21:46I 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.
00:21:58Impersonating my niece?
00:22:01And 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?
00:22:14And more to the point, what do you want from me?
00:22:17In the next few days, the Lewis Group will hold an investment meeting, right?
00:22:23I want to meet with the Vice Presidents.
00:22:26All will be revealed then.
00:22:28Very 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-
00:22:35It won't be.
00:22:36Trust me, Mr. Lewis.
00:22:38Thank you, Mr.
00:22:39That little rascal, Laura.
00:22:48I wonder what she's up to now.
00:22:53That car belongs to Mr. Yeats.
00:22:55The Lewis family bubler.
00:22:58Oh.
00:23:00Lewis family?
00:23:02That's interesting.
00:23:04Could you be connected to them somehow?
00:23:07I'm not sure.
00:23:10Brian!
00:23:11There you are.
00:23:13I've missed you.
00:23:14Chloe.
00:23:16What are you up to?
00:23:17Chloe.
00:23:18What 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.
00:23:28I was a little bit tipsy.
00:23:30Doesn't everyone deserve a second chance?
00:23:32Teensy mistake, you said?
00:23:34You cheated on me.
00:23:37Is this your new fling?
00:23:41Ex-divorcey.
00:23:43Used to clean floor.
00:23:44It's quite 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 Shepard Group to stay afloat, you ought to be more careful.
00:24:18Seems 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, I'll have Ben's company rolling in business investments.
00:24:36I'll go speak with them first and then I'll introduce you.
00:24:38Well, well, well.
00:24:41Look who it is.
00:24:43What a surprise.
00:24:44Did Brian teach you already?
00:24:46That's none of your business.
00:24:50Now move aside, please.
00:24:51Laura?
00:24:52Just what do you think you're doing, you street rat?
00:24:55You really think you can just ruin my events again?
00:24:56Haven't you ruined my life enough?
00:24:58Don't you have any shame?
00:24:59If you'll excuse me, I have an important meeting to get to.
00:25:03Oh, the nerve.
00:25:05After everything you've done, you 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 going to let you in, Laura?
00:25:20Please, you'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 are you three.
00:25:28And you, idiot, believing every lie that she tells you.
00:25:32Wake up, Ben.
00:25:34Oh, Laura!
00:25:36Laura, come on, why do you always pull this on me?
00:25:39I mean, seriously, can't you just let me enjoy one of my events for once?
00:25:43I know what this is.
00:25:45So stupid.
00:25:47Oh, such a trap.
00:25:49Amber spoke directly with the CEO.
00:25:50He invited her to meet with the VPs before the main meeting.
00:25:54Yeah, Amber got me a partnership with the Lewis Group.
00:25:58And unlike some people, I have a real invitation.
00:26:01Well, before you all start celebrating, why don't you take a look at this?
00:26:11Oh, that's rich.
00:26:13You may have Brian Shepard fooled, but you can't fool me.
00:26:16I spoke to Ian Lewis himself, CEO of Lewis Group.
00:26:19Speaking of Brian, where is he right now?
00:26:23You mean my uncle?
00:26:26Ian, don't be ridiculous.
00:26:28Ian Lewis personally gave me this invitation himself.
00:26:32And besides, this looks fake.
00:26:36She's a liar.
00:26:38This is a personal invitation from Mr. Yates himself.
00:26:42It grants me access to the VIP elevator, which leads straight to the vice presidential suite.
00:26:47She's lying.
00:26:49They don't have a VIP elevator in this hotel.
00:26:52Is there a special elevator for VIPs in this hotel?
00:26:58Not that I know of.
00:27:01See? She's lying.
00:27:02There you have it, Laura.
00:27:03Even the hotel staff can spot a fake.
00:27:06Go on, get lost before things get worse.
00:27:11Here, take this one.
00:27:13Lead me to the vice president's.
00:27:15You have no idea what you just did.
00:27:18There will be consequences.
00:27:23Besides, if you have this relationship with Ian Lewis that you claim to have,
00:27:29why don't you just ask him to get the two of them an invitation?
00:27:34Security, security, we need this woman removed immediately.
00:27:37She is harassing me.
00:27:38We're done with your games, Laura.
00:27:40You're just a fraud.
00:27:41Ma'am, please move me.
00:27:42What?
00:27:43Hold on!
00:27:47Brian Shepard?
00:27:49You think money buys you the right to walk all over people?
00:27:51Well, it doesn't.
00:27:53Yeah. Wasn't enough to kick us out of Maplewood, was it, huh?
00:27:56What other plans do you have to destroy this time?
00:27:58Get you out?
00:28:00After what you did to Laura, you had it coming.
00:28:02Don't play dumb.
00:28:04We know exactly what's been happening here.
00:28:06How long has this little affair been going on?
00:28:08You've been sleeping with her since she was married to my son.
00:28:11Hold on a second.
00:28:13An affair?
00:28:15You think Laura and I?
00:28:17You people are unbelievable.
00:28:21Mr. Carter.
00:28:23Get down here ASAP.
00:28:24We have a situation.
00:28:26What, you think you can just boss the manager around now?
00:28:28Is that it?
00:28:29We'll stick around and watch you crash and burn.
00:28:32Ms. Lewis, apologies for the delay.
00:28:33How can I help you this evening?
00:28:35Thank you, Mr. Carter, for getting down here so quickly.
00:28:38It seems there's a misunderstanding.
00:28:42These people don't think that I belong here.
00:28:45Well, Mr. Carter, I can assure you, this woman is a cleaner.
00:28:48A cleaner? Nonsense.
00:28:50I personally greeted Ms. Lewis upon her arrival in Maplewood three years ago.
00:28:54Exactly.
00:28:56Lewis Group, my company, has some major investments planned here in Maplewood.
00:29:02In Maplewood. I was just here investigating potential business opportunities.
00:29:06No, this woman doesn't know the difference between business and a hole in the ground.
00:29:11She's been this way since my son divorced her. She's insane.
00:29:14Actually, I met Laura three years ago at the coffee shop.
00:29:18She helped secure a profitable investment for Shepard Group.
00:29:21No, it's a lie. Mr. Shepard, she's tricking you too.
00:29:29You know, it's exhausting trying to argue with people who forget who helped them.
00:29:36Mr. 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 Ms. Lewis that way?
00:29:48Enough of this. Shepard.
00:29:49That's enough. Have you never embarrassed yourself enough?
00:29:52This is Lewis Group property. Behave or I'll call security.
00:29:56But she doesn't even have a VIP entrance access. She shouldn't be here.
00:30:01Since you're having trouble understanding them, let me make it clear.
00:30:06This hotel is owned by the Lewis family.
00:30:08It'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.
00:30:24Well, it seems that divorcing a powerful woman wasn't the best decision, Mr. Anderson.
00:30:29I think so, uh, what do you think we don't have a seat?
00:30:36Come in.
00:30:38Excuse me, Vice Presidents.
00:30:41I'm Amber Smith, General Manager of the Lewis Group Maplewood Branch.
00:30:46I believe Ian Lewis told you about our meeting today?
00:30:49Maplewood Branch.
00:30:50Our records don't show any Maplewood Branch, Ms. Smith.
00:30:55Are you sure you haven't gotten something mixed up?
00:30:59Ian Lewis, Mr. Lewis, reassured me that today we would discuss, well, expansion plans.
00:31:08Expansion plans?
00:31:10Ms. Smith?
00:31:11A decision like that wouldn't be taken without board approval.
00:31:15And frankly, we haven't heard anything about Maplewood Branch.
00:31:20But Ian Lewis assured me that...
00:31:23Ms. 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?
00:31:30Maybe I can stay for this guest and offer some local...
00:31:33Ms. 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...
00:32:11shall we say unconventional leadership.
00:32:14The 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.
00:32:36Ms. Lewis, we met with an Amber Smith.
00:32:39She claimed your uncle appointed her general manager of a Maplewood branch for the Lewis Group.
00:32:47She said that. Did she?
00:32:49Well, Ms. Smith is a liar. There is no Maplewood branch, at least not yet.
00:32:54She lied so blatantly. It was... it's unbelievable.
00:32:58Bob, don't worry. I found a much more suitable partner.
00:33:01Shepard Group.
00:33:04Shepard Group.
00:33:06Shepard Group? Their rise to a public company has been impressive.
00:33:10Do you have anything to do with that?
00:33:13So, what happens now with this Amber Smith?
00:33:17Oh, don't worry about Amber.
00:33:19I've got plans for her.
00:33:23Ha, ha, ha, ha.
00:33:25Ms. Lewis, consider this your official invitation to the magic.
00:33:32From us.
00:33:34Cheers.
00:33:35Cheers.
00:33:36Cheers.
00:33:45No, I'm not leaving.
00:33:47What are you talking about? No, come on.
00:33:48Wait! I'm Amber Smith.
00:33:50I'm the Lewis Group manager of Maplewood branch. What are you doing? These are my guests.
00:33:54Yeah, 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.
00:34:02And frankly, I'm not interested in your act.
00:34:05Of course.
00:34:06Laura!
00:34:08She's probably sleeping with the manager as well.
00:34:10That's how she gets away with everything.
00:34:12You underestimate her, Cathy.
00:34:14She'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.
00:34:21Both of you. Accusations like that can get you in serious trouble.
00:34:28Look who can't even get into a meeting.
00:34:30Whilst 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.
00:34:40Used me? Unlike some people, I don't mind being helpful.
00:34:44You're so stupid. She threw you away like yesterday's trash.
00:34:48Don't worry, Brian. You deserve better.
00:34:52And let's not forget, I'm the new Maplewood branch manager of Lewis Group.
00:34:56Appointed by the CEO of Lewis Group themselves, Ian Lewis.
00:35:00New branch manager, huh?
00:35:03Interesting.
00:35:05Laura Lewis? What are you doing here? Get out of here!
00:35:08You claim to be the mystery guest.
00:35:11Don't play games, Laura.
00:35:12I was formally invited by Lewis Group themselves to the investment meeting.
00:35:17Only the top companies get those.
00:35:19Looks like you're all out of luck.
00:35:21Is that so?
00:35:23Well then?
00:35:25There seems to be a misunderstanding.
00:35:28You see, I'm not sure if you know Miss Smith, but Lewis Group is my company.
00:35:34And I decide who goes to the meetings.
00:35:35Escort them out.
00:35:39What?
00:35:40Their visit is over.
00:35:41Oh, come on.
00:35:42This way, please.
00:35:44I'm not leaving.
00:35:46Move. We're not leaving again. Move.
00:35:48Oh, no, no, no. We're not going now.
00:35:50Okay, bye, bye, bye.
00:35:52This isn't over, Laura. You'll see.
00:35:56Thanks for waiting, bud.
00:35:57Laura, 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 gonna be tricky.
00:36:20Why? I'm sure that Shepard Group got an invitation.
00:36:24Yes.
00:36:28Laura.
00:36:30There's something you should know.
00:36:32Is...
00:36:34Is 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.
00:36:44It's not Ben.
00:36:46It's someone else.
00:36:49Someone's causing problems for Shepard Group?
00:36:51Yes.
00:36:54Her name is Chloe Duke.
00:36:58She is daughter of the Duke family.
00:37:01She's my ex-fiancee.
00:37:04And, uh, let's say things didn't end so well between us.
00:37:10And...
00:37:12Let's just say we didn't end things so well.
00:37:15And for some reason...
00:37:18She's having a hard time moving on.
00:37:22And...
00:37:24You think that she's gonna cause problems at the meeting?
00:37:29For...
00:37:31Out of...
00:37:34Jealousy?
00:37:35There's a possibility.
00:37:38She's kind of jealous.
00:37:40Well...
00:37:42All the more reason for you to be there.
00:37:45Besides...
00:37:47I'll be there too.
00:37:48I'll be there too.
00:37:51Laura.
00:37:54Would you consider being a 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 your team.
00:38:08Well, it's a very kind offer, Mr. Shepard.
00:38:13Laura.
00:38:14I 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 your honesty and...
00:38:38Right now, I...
00:38:39I'm just not...
00:38:41I...
00:38:42I 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.
00:38:54And 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.
00:39:08A formal dress.
00:39:21Ah!
00:39:22Security!
00:39:23She doesn't belong here.
00:39:24This is a private store.
00:39:25Excuse me.
00:39:27We...
00:39:28Need some assistance.
00:39:29I'm looking for a very particular dress.
00:39:34Wow.
00:39:35Beautiful.
00:39:37It is.
00:39:38I'll try this one off.
00:39:39Uh...
00:39:40Don't bother with her.
00:39:41She can't afford anything here.
00:39:42She's just a cleaner.
00:39:44She doesn't deserve to shop you.
00:39:45She has no money.
00:39:48Yeah, exactly.
00:39:49I mean, what are you doing here?
00:39:50Can't you just leave me alone?
00:39:52I wouldn't bat an eyelash...
00:39:53If you just...
00:39:54Disappeared.
00:39:55I'm here for...
00:39:56Retail therapy.
00:39:57Oh, please.
00:39:58This store's for the A-list only.
00:40:00Not some cheapskate like you.
00:40:02Says 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.
00:40:12I would have asked you, but without me, I'm sure you're already broke.
00:40:17Oh, please.
00:40:18Come on, we'll take the dress.
00:40:19Sir, this particular dress is not for sale.
00:40:22Uh, what do you mean you don't sell it?
00:40:24I 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.
00:40:54Oh, please.
00:40:57Don't you know that this store belongs to Lewis Group?
00:40:59We wouldn't sell it to someone like you.
00:41:01Amber, 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.
00:41:11Uh, it was custom made for Laura Lewis, heiress to the Lewis Group fortune.
00:41:16And stitched in Italy, naturally, and apparently there are many more like it this year.
00:41:23High-end stores and museums around the world from her private collection.
00:41:28Laura, 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.
00:41:41Fine, 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.
00:41:48Miss, this dress is very delicate.
00:41:51If I may be frank, I don't think this would fit you properly.
00:41:55Are you calling me fat?
00:41:57Actually, on a second thought, why don't we just buy the whole brand?
00:42:02How's that sound?
00:42:03Sir, are you serious?
00:42:04You 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.
00:42:20Yes, this is Brian Shepard, CEO of Shepard 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.
00:42:45Mr. Yates, yes, this is Laura Lewis.
00:42:51I'm calling to discuss the sale of our high-end clothing brand to Shepard Group.
00:42:58Oh, come on.
00:42:59Calling the Lewis family butler won't get you anywhere, sweetie.
00:43:02Exactly.
00:43:03Come on, this is pathetic.
00:43:04You really think this is going to work?
00:43:06It's sad.
00:43:07Excellent.
00:43:08Thank you, Mr. Yates, that's all.
00:43:15Yes.
00:43:16What?
00:43:17Are you willing to sell me the brand?
00:43:18Awesome.
00:43:20Hello?
00:43:21Yes.
00:43:22Wow.
00:43:23Yes, of course.
00:43:24Absolutely.

00:43:27Uh, this store, along with the entire brand?
00:43:29Yes.
00:43:30Wow.

00:43:32Absolutely.
00:43:33Mm-hmm.
00:43:35Uh, this store, along with the entire brand?
00:43:37Yes.
00:43:38Yes, of course.
00:43:39Absolutely.
00:43:40Mm-hmm.
00:43:42Uh, this store, along with the entire brand, has been sold to Mr. Shepard.
00:43:47The Shepard Group is the new owner.
00:43:49How may I be up service today, sir?
00:43:52Well, Lauren, I don't know much about pressure, so 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.
00:44:08You'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 afraid I 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.
00:44:35Miss Lewis, this dress really was made for you.
00:44:48Laura, you look breathtaking in distress.
00:44:52Brian, why would you do all of this for me?
00:44:58Laura, because you deserve everything beautiful in the world.
00:45:05And that includes this dress.
00:45:09Will you give us a chance to see where things could go?
00:45:14I...
00:45:15I need a moment.
00:45:17Perhaps we could talk some more about this after the investment meeting?
00:45:22Does that mean it could be a yes?
00:45:23Maybe.

00:53:45cooperation but wow did I underestimate your foolishness Chloe you have no right to talk to
00:53:54Miss Duke like that that's enough you don't get to talk here you got mad Shepard you dare to go
00:54:00against Miss Duke and the same applies to everyone else here anyone who insults Laura leaves with a
00:54:07black eye it's willing to defend the Duke for her what kind of charm does she have I want to be careful
00:54:13Brian don't forget that this entire hotel chain is owned by the Lewis group are you willing to get
00:54:19blacklisted for this public tantrum the Lewis group isn't blacklisting anyone especially not

01:00:41you must be out of your mind trusting a complete stranger like this exactly we ran a background
01:00:46check on her and turns out she's just some cleaner that used to work for the Harrison group

01:12:31Let's just say that I have my ways.
01:12:33Listen, Chloe, don't hurt her, please.
01:12:38I'll do anything.
01:12:40Come to the abandoned warehouse in the eastern suburbs.
01:12:45Now.
01:12:47Don't tell anyone if you want her alive.
01:12:50Well, you certainly do have your ways.
01:12:56Oh, thank goodness you've cleared up.
01:13:00I am sorry, how clumsy.
01:13:02And don't forget your phone.

01:13:20Laura!
01:13:21Laura!
01:13:22Where are you?
01:13:23Laura!
01:13:24Laura!
01:13:25Where are you?
01:13:27Laura!
01:13:28Laura!
01:13:29Where are you?
01:13:30Laura!
01:13:31Laura, where are you?
01:13:32Laura!
01:13:37Gotcha.
01:13:38You weren't expecting that, were you?
01:13:42Finally.
01:13:43Looks like your little boyfriend got turned around.
01:13:55What the?
01:13:56Laura, where are you?
01:13:57Laura?
01:13:58Laura?
01:13:59Go 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!
01:14:06You were the one that left me for that tramp and destroyed my life!
01:14:10That's not true.
01:14:11You were the one who messed up!
01:14:13Brian!
01:14:14Laura!
01:14:17Stay where you are.
01:14:19You better come alone.
01:14:20Shut this knife, Chloe.
01:14:21This is insane!
01:14:22Insane?
01:14:23I did this for us, Brian!
01:14:24We were meant to be together.
01:14:25Us?
01:14:26You've gone crazy!
01:14:27And you're out of here!
01:14:28Chloe, kidnapping is a very serious event.
01:14:29They're going to lock you up for years!
01:14:31Do you think I care about jail time?
01:14:45What I care about is tearing you to your partner!
01:14:47Do you deserve him?
01:14:49What have you done?
01:14:50You've destroyed my life!
01:14:52My company!
01:14:53Everything!
01:14:55Now I'm going to destroy your life!
01:14:58Give me your family ring now.
01:15:01Give it to me!
01:15:02This is about the ring.
01:15:05Did my Uncle Ian put you up to this?
01:15:09You know, Chloe, trying to kill me, that's foolish.
01:15:15Because who do you think is going to win?
01:15:18You, that little knife, or me,
01:15:23with something a little bit more persuasive?
01:15:28Freeze!
01:15:34Don't move anyone.
01:15:37Don't move.
01:15:40You're about to be arrested for kidnapping.
01:15:43Miss Lewis, having fun without me?
01:15:46I'm hurt.
01:15:48Are you hurt?
01:15:51No, I'm okay.
01:15:53Tell me, Chloe, who put you up to this, Chloe?
01:16:00Why should I tell you?
01:16:02You're going to kill me anyway.
01:16:04Chloe, I don't have a problem with you.
01:16:06But if you don't talk, your beloved Duke Industries might run into some.
01:16:14Well, I'm recording everything, Miss Lewis.
01:16:17So the choice is yours, Chloe.
01:16:19Talk, or face the consequences.
01:16:22Fine.
01:16:23It was Ian Lewis.
01:16:25He said he'd help Duke Industries if I kept you away from the bank room today.
01:16:31Did you get all of that, Mr. Yates?
01:16:33I'm recording everything, Miss Lewis.
01:16:38Oh, every word, Miss Lewis.
01:16:40Are you ready to play a game, Brian?
01:16:54This is crazy.
01:16:55Are we really sure we can do this?
01:16:56All these big companies here, it's crazy.
01:16:58Absolutely.
01:16:59The Lewis Group is under new leadership.
01:17:01We can talk to the heiress herself.
01:17:04Exactly.
01:17:05We just need to make sure we make a good impression on the new heir.
01:17:08There's Ian Lewis now.
01:17:10You can introduce us.
01:17:11Let's go.
01:17:12Yeah.
01:17:15Hello, Ian Lewis.
01:17:16I'm Amber Smith.
01:17:17We spoke on the phone the other day.
01:17:18This is Ben Harrison from Harrison Group.
01:17:20How do you do?
01:17:21We're the company that...
01:17:22Yes, I know who you are.
01:17:24Miss Smith, you're the one who exposed Laura's little drama.
01:17:27Now, look, I'm not here for idle chatter.
01:17:34Good evening, ladies and gentlemen.
01:17:36Can I ask you all to be seated, please?
01:17:40The moment you've all been waiting for.
01:17:43Tonight marks a new chapter in the life of the Lewis Group.
01:17:47A night where the rightful heir takes their place.
01:17:50Would you please join me in welcoming the heir to the Lewis Group, Miss Laura Lewis.
01:17:57Look, everybody, attention.
01:17:59Attention, please.
01:18:00There's been a recent development of some tragedy.
01:18:07I just got notice from a phone call a couple of minutes ago that Laura has been in a car accident.
01:18:14And tragically, she hasn't made it.
01:18:16She has not survived.
01:18:21What?
01:18:22Laura Lewis is dead?
01:18:24It doesn't matter now.
01:18:25She's gone.
01:18:26Mr. Lewis, is this new-
01:18:28A tragic turn of events, Mr. Yates.
01:18:30But rest assured, the Lewis Group will continue under my competent leadership.
01:18:37Hold on!
01:18:38Who said that I'm dead?
01:18:42Laura!
01:18:43I don't understand.
01:18:48What's happening?
01:18:50Laura?
01:18:51But weren't you-
01:18:53My apologies for the delay, everyone.
01:18:56There seems to be some misunderstanding.
01:18:59Laura, what are you doing here?
01:19:01You've got to stop this.
01:19:02If you upset the Lewis family anymore, we're all doomed.
01:19:05I'll say this once.
01:19:06Back off, then.
01:19:13Thank you for coming, everyone.
01:19:15As I'm sure you know, tonight I officially reclaim my title as the CEO of Lewis Group.
01:19:27Perhaps you could make some room for me, Uncle Ian.
01:19:32Impossible.
01:19:33How are you still alive?
01:19:34Well, clearly I am alive and well, so why don't we get this started?
01:19:39No.
01:19:40You're not the rightful heir.
01:19:42You 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
01:19:55and left me to work tirelessly, keeping the company together.
01:19:59Uncle Ian.
01:20:00Retire.
01:20:01Enjoy your retirement.
01:20:03Lewis Group will be perfectly fine without you.
01:20:06No.
01:20:07There 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.
01:20:23Give 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.
01:20:31True leadership is about earning the respect of those around you.
01:20:38Not some stupid ring.
01:20:40Oh, my ring!
01:20:41What have you done?
01:20:42Where is it?
01:20:46My ring!
01:20:48Now, everyone, if I could have your attention.
01:20:51How dare you!
01:20:52Now, let me show you how a true heir earns a ring like that.
01:20:57Talk.
01:20:58I'm working so awesome.
01:20:59Fine.
01:21:00I'm with Ian Lewis.
01:21:01He said he helped juking districts if I kept you away from the bank room today.
01:21:04Oh, quite the spectacle, Mr Lewis.
01:21:05Security, escort him out.
01:21:06And Ian, don't fall over.
01:21:07It's all lies.
01:21:08It's all lies.
01:21:09Fakery.
01:21:10It's fake news.
01:21:11The truth is clear.
01:21:12Get him out of here.
01:21:13Now.
01:21:14I owe all of you an apology for everything that's happened tonight.
01:21:33It turns out reclaiming my birthright didn't go as smoothly as I had hoped.
01:21:40Luckily, these past few days, I've had Mr Shepard by my side.
01:21:47And he has been a great support.
01:21:51Lewis Group has a lot of exciting plans for Maplewood.
01:21:57I'm proud to announce that we have secured a reliable partner.
01:22:05Shepard Group.
01:22:06What?
01:22:07Laura, hold on.
01:22:08This was never my idea.
01:22:10This was all Kathy and Amber's fault.
01:22:12I don't want a divorce.
01:22:13What?
01:22:14Then what are you saying?
01:22:15You came to me first.
01:22:17Classic Ben.
01:22:18Something goes wrong and you start pointing the fingers at all the women in your life.
01:22:23Just don't shut Harrison Group out.
01:22:25Just give me another chance.
01:22:27How could I shut you out?
01:22:29I'm just a cleaner, remember?
01:22:31I'm just a useless housewife.
01:22:33I don't have that power.
01:22:35What are you talking about?
01:22:38What?
01:22:39No, come on.
01:22:40Sorry.
01:22:41No, please.
01:22:42No.
01:22:43Um, Mr Shepard?
01:22:44Yes, Miss Lewis?
01:22:46I was wondering if maybe you wanted to grab dinner sometime.
01:22:53On me.
01:22:55Miss Lewis, I would love to.
01:23:16I'm making a license.
01:23:17To me.
01:23:18Let me make a milhões of money.
01:23:19I'm making a close.
01:23:20I'm giving it to you.
01:23:21Thanks.
01:23:22Never mind me.
01:23:23No, I'm trying to buy a car.
01:23:24No!
01:23:25No, I'm trying to buy a car.
01:23:26No.
01:23:27You better buy a car.
01:23:28No, I'm trying to buy a car.
01:23:29No, I need to buy a car.
01:23:30No.
01:23:31I'll buy a car.
01:23:32I'm making a car.
01:23:33She'll buy a car.
01:23:34They are not being charged with you
01:23:37They are not being charged with me, but they do not work with me
01:23:39They are not being charged with me, but I am not being charged with me
01:23:42I am not being charged with you
01:23:43You go ahead
01:23:45I still have a lot of money
