Transcript
00:00:00Let Leon go. I'm marrying Vincent like you asked.
00:00:10Patience is a virtue. Besides, the groom isn't even here yet.
00:00:15Stay back.
00:00:16Leon?
00:00:18Your brother only breathes because I allow it.
00:00:22Don't test me, Bella Miller.
00:00:24Don't hurt him!
00:00:28That's not up to you.
00:00:30I can't wait to meet the Vincent Owens.
00:00:33Filth pair with filth? There won't be a more fitting match.
00:00:37Roma has it that he's a booze hound.
00:00:39He's squandering money like he made it himself.
00:00:42He doesn't even care about his family.
00:00:45He's worthless. Not fit to shine Reginald's shoes.
00:00:49Rightful heir.
00:00:50I heard he likes to hang with common gangster scum.
00:00:54I'm so scared.
00:00:56Don't worry, babe. I got this.
00:00:58Vee, where are you? I don't want to marry a stranger.
00:01:07Do you know who I am? I work for Reginald Owens.
00:01:11You're dead. Dead.
00:01:14Quit your yapping.
00:01:17Lapdog.
00:01:18Vincent Owens?
00:01:20How dare you defy your brother Reginald?
00:01:22He's your brother, the true heir.
00:01:28That bastard child?
00:01:29Doesn't matter anymore.
00:01:31Mrs. Owens bit the dust ten years ago.
00:01:33All for the family.
00:01:34Your dad doesn't seem to mind, though.
00:01:35That might be true.
00:01:37But he and his mother murdered mine.
00:01:42How is that possible?
00:01:44That is none of your concern.
00:01:45What?
00:01:47You either listen to me, the true heir,
00:01:51or you die.
00:01:52Sir, the wedding's about to start.
00:02:02The bride's waiting.
00:02:04Wedding.
00:02:05The engagement arranged by Mr. Harold.
00:02:08The young lady from the Miller family.
00:02:11You promise?
00:02:13Still, appearances must be kept, yes?
00:02:17Typical. He's late.
00:02:18So, um, uh, Bella Miller?
00:02:29Uh, sorry. It's business. You understand.
00:02:33It's okay.
00:02:38I'm leaving here.
00:02:43Isn't that a good thing?
00:02:45But I...
00:02:46What about you?
00:02:48Here.
00:02:59For when we meet again.
00:03:02It's so beautiful.
00:03:04I'm gonna become the best designer in the world
00:03:07and design the best necklace.
00:03:10Why are you here, Serena?
00:03:12And how did you become Bella Miller?
00:03:18Mr. Owens.
00:03:25I'm sorry.
00:03:26Um, shall we proceed?
00:03:29We are all gathered before God here today.
00:03:32Vincent, do you take Miss Miller as your wife?
00:03:36I do.
00:03:39Bella, do you take Mr. Owens as your husband?
00:03:42I do.
00:03:55Match made in heaven.
00:03:57Bravo.
00:03:58I did what you said.
00:03:59Now honor our agreement.
00:04:02Agreement?
00:04:02Agreement?
00:04:04Mom, do you know anything about an agreement with Mrs. Owens?
00:04:08Of course.
00:04:10Serena said when she marries into the Owens family, she will pay us back for our kindness.
00:04:14Tenfolds.
00:04:15What?
00:04:16I never said that.
00:04:17Serena, you are so selfish.
00:04:20If we hadn't picked you out of that orphanage, you would never be enjoying the wonderful life that you are today.
00:04:27What do you want?
00:04:28Five hundred thousand?
00:04:29Five hundred thousand?
00:04:31Have some self-worth, Serena.
00:04:35You kept me in a basement for ten years.
00:04:38Leon and I had to feed off of table scraps.
00:04:41What more could you take from me?
00:04:42I'm sorry, is something the matter?
00:04:49Oh, the dashing husband now, are we?
00:04:53We were just discussing the debt of gratitude heroes.
00:04:56Well, how much is it I'll take care of?
00:05:00You?
00:05:02Can you afford it?
00:05:07Five million, is that enough?
00:05:08No.
00:05:09Sounds good.
00:05:10That's great.
00:05:12You think your grandpa's table scraps is enough?
00:05:16Okay, well, what do you want?
00:05:18All of it.
00:05:19I want you out of this family.
00:05:24No bark and no bite.
00:05:26As per the usual.
00:05:29Just let this be a warning.
00:05:31Don't come near me or mine ever again.
00:05:33Now, for excuse me.
00:05:36Let go of me.
00:05:37Why do you care?
00:05:38I'm helping you.
00:05:39You think money can solve everything?
00:05:41They are keeping my brother prisoner.
00:05:43I'm sorry, I didn't know that.
00:05:45Let me make this clear.
00:05:46You are not the man that I wish to marry.
00:05:49And that five million, I will pay you back as soon as I can.
00:05:52Money is not the...
00:05:53Okay, look.
00:05:54I know that you don't see us as a real couple.
00:05:57But we need to look the part for grandpa.
00:05:59And once that's over, if you want a divorce, I can accept that.
00:06:03Okay.
00:06:04But whatever that was today, that can never happen again.
00:06:08And I don't need you saving me.
00:06:20Well, he's quite convinced now, sir.
00:06:24Just don't tell grandpa.
00:06:27Old Mr. Owens clearly knows about your mother.
00:06:29Becoming the heir is the only true way to avenge my mother.
00:06:33That's all that matters.
00:06:35Also, look into my new wife for me.
00:06:39Bella Miller.
00:06:39No.
00:06:41The real Bella Miller was standing next to Reginald.
00:06:44I want to know what those bastards did to her.
00:06:59Sorry.
00:07:01I was just intrigued by your designs.
00:07:07What are they for?
00:07:09Just some freelance work.
00:07:11I mean, you've got some serious skills.
00:07:13You could secure some high-level work with this.
00:07:16Inovar Architects is the best design company in the country.
00:07:19I mean, you should give them a shot.
00:07:29Hey, um, you got a job interview?
00:07:33I have an interview at Inovar.
00:07:35Oh, all right.
00:07:36Well, uh, good luck.
00:07:37Thanks.
00:07:41Um, I wanted three, but I guess I'll toast another.
00:07:45Okay, she's gone.
00:07:52Introduce yourself, please.
00:07:54I'm Serena Collins.
00:07:56I have extensive experience in design,
00:07:58and I really hope to join this company.
00:08:01Do you have any actual experience in corporate design?
00:08:04These are my designs.
00:08:10Impressive.
00:08:12Did you design these yourself?
00:08:14Or...
00:08:15Can you prove you actually designed these?
00:08:17I mean, everyone can trace a design.
00:08:21Pick any of these, and I will explain them in great detail.
00:08:25No need.
00:08:26You don't even meet our basic requirements.
00:08:28It's over.
00:08:29But I...
00:08:30Sorry.
00:08:31You just indeed lack work experience.
00:08:34It's just not a match press right now.
00:08:41Those designs were so unique.
00:08:43I feel like I've seen them somewhere.
00:08:44I've seen people like her before.
00:08:46Copying other people's work.
00:08:48How could her designs resemble Aura's style more than mine?
00:08:57How did Serena's interview go?
00:08:59She didn't pass.
00:09:01Sorry, brother.
00:09:02The interviewer was Bella Miller.
00:09:06She was promoted to be the manager of the design department.
00:09:12No, I've seen Serena's designs.
00:09:14Hers are obviously more impressive than this.
00:09:17Let's find out how Bella got in.
00:09:18And while you're at it, keep an eye on the election.
00:09:21I'm just...
00:09:22By the way, I found out that the Millers bought them from the orphanage.
00:09:27So I can't find a trace of this Leon.
00:09:30Just keep looking.
00:09:38Hey.
00:09:39Hey.
00:09:40Are you okay?
00:09:42Why are you here?
00:09:43I'm here to pick you up.
00:09:46Thanks.
00:09:47Um, but...
00:09:48Unfortunately, I didn't pass.
00:09:50Don't worry.
00:09:52A diamond always shines through, no matter what.
00:09:54Come on.
00:09:55Let's go.
00:09:57Guess who I interviewed today?
00:10:00Serena Collins.
00:10:02Fake Bella?
00:10:03Did you let her pass?
00:10:04Do you even need to ask?
00:10:07You should come around to the office more often.
00:10:09My darling CEO.
00:10:10Everyone knows you're the future wife of the chairman.
00:10:14No need to show off.
00:10:24Well, what do you think?
00:10:25It's wonderful.
00:10:28I didn't think you'd be such a good cook.
00:10:30Everyone says that...
00:10:30That I'm a loser.
00:10:32Sorry.
00:10:33No.
00:10:34You shouldn't care about what others say.
00:10:36Thank you for today.
00:10:37I didn't expect to come home to such a nice meal.
00:10:41If Inovar doesn't want me, there are plenty of other companies.
00:10:45Serena, I don't think today was your fault.
00:10:47She's always hated me.
00:10:50I know you're not the real Bella Miller.
00:10:53She's your sister, right?
00:10:55What?
00:10:56Who told you that?
00:10:58You said your brother is being held captive, and I don't think anybody would imprison their own child.
00:11:03Please don't tell anyone.
00:11:05Don't worry.
00:11:07Your secret is safe with me.
00:11:09Oh.
00:11:10Sorry, I should probably...
00:11:12You do your thing.
00:11:16Yeah.
00:11:17The lady's foster parents are still being difficult about Leon.
00:11:21Don't they own a design company?
00:11:23I mean, just apply some pressure.
00:11:25What?
00:11:26I passed the interview.
00:11:30Okay.
00:11:32I got the job.
00:11:34Oh my gosh.
00:11:35Come here.
00:11:36Come here.
00:11:37Come here.
00:11:43Hey, babe.
00:11:44Hi, Bailey.
00:11:46What are you doing here?
00:11:48I thought I told you you weren't qualified.
00:11:51This is my offer.
00:11:52So you pulled strings?
00:11:58Bella's our manager.
00:11:59If she says you aren't good, you aren't.
00:12:02I don't think she takes kindly to being spoken for, miss.
00:12:07How dare you talk like that?
00:12:09Don't you know Bella is the future wife of the CEO of Inovar?
00:12:13The future heir of the Owens.
00:12:15Have you been living under a rock?
00:12:17Okay, I don't know who you had to sleep with to get here, but this is my house and my rules.
00:12:25You can either revise these before you leave today or get out.
00:12:36Just...
00:12:36Just bear with her.
00:12:38Hey.
00:12:45It's so late and you're still not done with this?
00:12:48Thanks.
00:12:48Yeah, it was the first day and she's already giving me a hard time.
00:12:56Bella Miller could be trouble.
00:12:58I need to pay her a visit.
00:13:00These are the design drafts we buys yesterday and the one based on the motion brief.
00:13:15Please take a look.
00:13:16I told you if you can't do it on time, you might as well not do it at all.
00:13:20You can look at the drafts I made.
00:13:22They've all been approved by the client.
00:13:25Not good enough.
00:13:26What?
00:13:27At least tell me what the problem is.
00:13:29Bella is your line manager.
00:13:31If she says it's not enough, it's not enough.
00:13:34I'm willing to fix any mistakes that I made, but I can't do anything if you don't tell me what the problem is.
00:13:40You think this is just about revising?
00:13:43The client will be here any minute.
00:13:45What are we supposed to present?
00:13:49Hi.
00:13:51You're downstairs.
00:13:52Okay, perfect.
00:13:53I'll be down in just a minute.
00:13:56Conference room two.
00:13:58Now.
00:13:59Good job.
00:14:03We have the shares now.
00:14:05Reginald's still in the dark.
00:14:08Most time to surprise him then.
00:14:16I'm really glad that you're here.
00:14:18Serena, fetch us some coffee.
00:14:20How good?
00:14:21It's been so long.
00:14:22I didn't expect for us to collaborate again so soon.
00:14:25Well, take a look at this draft.
00:14:26Sure.
00:14:28How are the projections looking?
00:14:30We've added 20 new brand partners, and we're expecting $3 billion in profits this quarter.
00:14:33That's good.
00:14:34And how is our collaboration with Motion going?
00:14:36The representative of Motion's already meeting with them in conference room two.
00:14:40Okay.
00:14:40By the way, Bella was...
00:14:41Um, what are you doing here?
00:14:53Uh, business?
00:14:55What are you doing here?
00:14:56Um, I have a meeting.
00:14:58Um, see you.
00:15:00Um, if this one doesn't work, I can always pin it on Serena.
00:15:13Um, these designs are really not what we're looking for.
00:15:21You know what?
00:15:22You're right.
00:15:22I had a rookie who started yesterday design these.
00:15:26I wanted her to practice.
00:15:28Bella, what are you talking about?
00:15:34Why don't you try these ones?
00:15:39These are top notch.
00:15:41Bella, how did you come up with these designs?
00:15:44I designed it this way because...
00:15:46Motion is our biggest brand partner.
00:15:48Don't speak out of turn.
00:15:49But I designed this, not Bella Miller.
00:15:51What?
00:15:52Are you trying to steal my work?
00:15:53Only Bella and the company can do such high-level work.
00:15:56I'm not lying.
00:15:57I drew this.
00:15:58I know these front to back.
00:15:59Stop.
00:15:59Are you trying to ruin this collaboration?
00:16:01I'm just telling the truth.
00:16:04How am I supposed to trust you guys with someone like this on your team?
00:16:07Who's arguing right here?
00:16:09Sweetie, what brings you up here?
00:16:11President, this woman is trying to steal Bella's work.
00:16:14You need to change your hiring policies.
00:16:16Ethics is very important to us.
00:16:21Inovera takes ethics very seriously as well.
00:16:23What's going on?
00:16:24I was just trying to give Serena a chance to practice.
00:16:27She's the one speaking out of turn.
00:16:29It's my work.
00:16:32You deserve to be fired for daring to claim my work as yours.
00:16:36I'm sorry, who's thinking about firing Serena?
00:16:46I'm sorry, who's thinking about firing Serena?
00:16:50Well, well, well.
00:16:51The prodigal son returns.
00:16:53Turning over a new leaf?
00:16:54What do you want?
00:16:55A job?
00:16:55Oh, well.
00:16:56If you're offering, I will take the position of CEO.
00:17:00Aw, the filth couple shares their grandeur of delusion.
00:17:04You and your trash wife make a great trash couple.
00:17:06Why don't you go back to your trash heap and get out of here?
00:17:09Oh, okay.
00:17:10Well, I'll take up recycling later.
00:17:12Let me see the designs.
00:17:16Wow.
00:17:17You really do think you're CEO.
00:17:20Okay, these are clearly Serena's.
00:17:23What are you talking about?
00:17:25This is the work of a senior designer.
00:17:27No, I saw Serena drawing those last night.
00:17:29Serena, when did you draw those?
00:17:30Covering for someone you sleep with?
00:17:33That's low, even for you.
00:17:34And why should anyone believe you?
00:17:36Well, I own the controlling shares here.
00:17:39Um, I do own 50% of the company.
00:17:42Reginald is director and president here.
00:17:45Not anymore.
00:17:45What are you talking about?
00:17:47Oh, you didn't get the notice?
00:17:48I bought 50% of Inovar.
00:17:51What?
00:17:52That's impossible.
00:17:53The next board meeting?
00:17:54It's already over.
00:17:56Damon, what are you doing here?
00:17:58You betrayed me?
00:17:59I only serve the true heir of the Owens family.
00:18:03Oh, hey, no, no.
00:18:06Reggie, just do your job as director
00:18:08and take up recycling.
00:18:10Don't think you've won.
00:18:12As director, I can still fire anyone who plagiarized.
00:18:15Well, Serena never plagiarized.
00:18:17The company computers keep a record.
00:18:20Who logs in and does what works?
00:18:22It's pretty easy to check.
00:18:23Say anything and your brother gets it.
00:18:27No need.
00:18:27No need.
00:18:34Serena, what are you talking about?
00:18:35It's the truth.
00:18:38Just drop it, please.
00:18:40Well, okay.
00:18:42How about a competition, then?
00:18:44To see who's the real deal.
00:18:46Works for me.
00:18:48Good.
00:18:49Inovar is hosting the IF design competition,
00:18:51so that should do.
00:18:58You won't win so easily again.
00:19:00Okay.
00:19:04I was, um, really shocked when you said that you own the company.
00:19:11Right, yeah, I'm sorry I didn't tell you about that first.
00:19:13I, uh, wanted everything to be settled.
00:19:17You helped me again.
00:19:19Um, but aren't you a little worried that your brother's gonna seek revenge?
00:19:24No, no, it's, it's the Owen family way.
00:19:28It's been that way since my grandpa brought me back from the orphanage ten years ago.
00:19:39I'm sorry, I gotta take this.
00:19:41Hello?
00:19:43Where are you now?
00:19:45Reginald's been here for a while.
00:19:47Yeah, okay, yeah, I'll do this.
00:19:52I'm sorry about that.
00:19:53I, I've gotta go.
00:19:54It's family stuff.
00:19:55Uh, of course.
00:19:57Enjoy the wine.
00:20:07And I told him, you call this caviar?
00:20:10Like, are you serious?
00:20:12Hey, Grandpa, I'm so sorry I'm here now.
00:20:15Where have you been?
00:20:16Don't be angry.
00:20:18You must have been busy with the wife.
00:20:20Always revolving around a woman.
00:20:23No time for your old granddad.
00:20:25Vincent probably didn't intentionally sneak to the board meeting.
00:20:27I'm sure he'll manage the company quite well.
00:20:30You guys are trying to kill me sooner.
00:20:32Well, how about this?
00:20:33How about a competition between me and Reginald, then?
00:20:38You do understand your brother.
00:20:40But the Owen family is a family built off of design and capabilities.
00:20:45The IF design competition is in a week.
00:20:47If one of us can sign the best designer, then that's a clear show of superior skill.
00:20:53All right, it's settled then.
00:20:57Oh, I don't think I have much time.
00:20:59Grandfather, take care of yourself.
00:21:03I'll come see you tomorrow.
00:21:03Vincent, can you stay for a moment?
00:21:07I need to speak with you.
00:21:08Yes, of course.
00:21:10You are both my grandsons.
00:21:12And I remember, family is everything.
00:21:15I can't believe I actually won.
00:21:27Orr's designs are finally being recognized.
00:21:29I always knew it.
00:21:31Now everybody else does too.
00:21:36Famous designer?
00:21:37You're going to be swamped with work.
00:21:39No, I need to focus on the IF design competition next week.
00:21:44Why?
00:21:45With your fame, you can easily get a lot of money without it.
00:21:49I made a bet with Bella Miller.
00:21:53That's crazy.
00:21:54Let me guess, this has something to do with your husband, Vincent?
00:22:01Okay.
00:22:03I see.
00:22:05You two seem to be getting along quite well.
00:22:07He's good to me.
00:22:09He feels familiar, like an old friend.
00:22:13The news has been buzzing.
00:22:15They got a dark horse this year.
00:22:17I'll contact Orr and send her an invite to collab with us.
00:22:19No.
00:22:20I will send her an invite personally.
00:22:28Who's this Orr?
00:22:30And how come I've never heard of her?
00:22:32Well, she wasn't very famous before.
00:22:34She mainly deals in high tech.
00:22:36Rumor is she is young.
00:22:37Contact her now.
00:22:39She won't refuse an invite from someone as esteemed as me.
00:22:43Yes, President.
00:22:43So, how is the preparation for the contest going?
00:22:52Grandpa, I'm basically ready.
00:22:53My people have already sent an invite to Orr.
00:22:55Well, I felt that respect needs to be shown on a personal level, and so I'm sending one to Orr personally.
00:23:03You also sent her an invitation?
00:23:06Good job, Vincent.
00:23:07You just want another pretty tale to change, don't you?
00:23:09No, no, no.
00:23:10Enough squabbling.
00:23:11Look, I expect much out of both of you.
00:23:13So, just sign her.
00:23:16Show me you've got what it takes.
00:23:22Wow.
00:23:23Somebody's getting good news.
00:23:27No, not really.
00:23:29Reginald Owens just sent me an invitation to be a judge.
00:23:33I wonder what he would say if he knew you were Orr.
00:23:39More invites?
00:23:41Show me, show me.
00:23:42Vincent just sent me an invitation, too.
00:23:46Aren't you popular?
00:23:48Two guys fighting over you at the same time?
00:23:50No, it's not like that.
00:23:52He's the new chairman, and we've both been really busy.
00:23:55We've really not talked at all.
00:23:58Are you going to kick Bella Miller's ass as yourself?
00:24:00Mm-hmm.
00:24:03Mm-hmm.
00:24:05Oh.
00:24:17That looks amazing.
00:24:18Almost done.
00:24:19Just need a few adjustments.
00:24:21That looks so good.
00:24:23Do you want me to get you a cup of coffee?
00:24:25No worries, I'll go with you.
00:24:43She's Aura?
00:24:52Yeah, I'm happy I went with blue design.
00:24:55I don't pay you to slack off. Back to work.
00:24:59You know it. I won't lose to you this time.
00:25:10I have something to tell you. I know who the Aura is.
00:25:14Serena Collins.
00:25:17You serious?
00:25:18Absolutely. I wanted to see what she was preparing for the contest and I found this.
00:25:23I can't believe the Aura, my idol in design school, is that disgusting leech.
00:25:29I even copied her style for my thesis.
00:25:32No matter. I must sign her first.
00:25:35You know, I could be Aura.
00:25:37With these unpublished designs, we could live good for ages.
00:25:41Not feasible.
00:25:43Vincent might already know.
00:25:45He isn't as dumb as he looks.
00:25:46Besides, grandfather isn't as easy to fool.
00:25:50And you are no fool.
00:25:52So, what's your plan?
00:25:55I wanted to sign with this willingly.
00:25:59Are you thinking what I'm thinking?
00:26:00You still can't find Leon?
00:26:02They've been quite greedy.
00:26:04Asking for money all the time.
00:26:05Okay, I know this isn't your fault, but I've had enough of this.
00:26:08You need to tell Bruce to find him by whatever means.
00:26:11But...
00:26:13Cautiously.
00:26:15Copy that.
00:26:16Copy that.
00:26:29Why haven't you released Leon yet?
00:26:31What the hell do you want from me?
00:26:3310 million for 10 years.
00:26:35That's a fair price, no?
00:26:37Time is worth its fading gold, after all.
00:26:40You thieving bastards.
00:26:42Contributing to the family is what he should have been doing.
00:26:45Be grateful to be letting you off this easy.
00:26:47Where am I supposed to get that much money?
00:26:49I have a solution.
00:26:50One big happy ending for everybody.
00:26:52Go on.
00:26:53I'll handle this.
00:26:55Save your mockeries for another day.
00:27:02What do you want?
00:27:03I'm in no mood for your game.
00:27:05I always hated how stupid the two of them were.
00:27:09All they see is money.
00:27:11Not talent.
00:27:13Aura.
00:27:14My Reginald is so resourceful.
00:27:18Nothing is hidden from his eagle eyes.
00:27:22If you're just gonna spew your lovey-dovey crap, I'm leaving.
00:27:27Sign an exclusive contract with Reginald.
00:27:30And I'll shoo away the vultures.
00:27:32And why aren't you signing me?
00:27:37Really?
00:27:38All that firecracker spirit and still not an ounce of brain in there.
00:27:43We're accessories to the men.
00:27:44Surely Vincent bought you for the same reason.
00:27:46Vincent is not like that.
00:27:48He didn't buy me.
00:27:50Don't be so naive.
00:27:52Love can be bought, like anything in this world.
00:27:55And Reginald can offer you twice what he can.
00:27:59He didn't bribe me.
00:28:00And why would he be so nice to you?
00:28:02Unless he knew who you were.
00:28:05No.
00:28:07I didn't tell him I was Aura.
00:28:09Well, I mean, if Reginald can figure it out with just a little bit of digging, I'm sure Vincent can too.
00:28:14Oh, you still think he's your white knight.
00:28:17Well, if he is, why hasn't he found your brother yet?
00:28:20Or maybe he'll dangle it over your head to use your help.
00:28:24Stop.
00:28:25Play for the winning side, my darling sister.
00:28:28It's the only way to be free and do what you want.
00:28:31And who knows what the notorious Vincent will do to your brother once he gets his hands on him.
00:28:35At least with us.
00:28:36You know where you stand.
00:28:37You have three days to decide.
00:28:45If you join us, your brother goes free and you'll be rewarded handsomely.
00:28:50Is he helping me just to use me?
00:28:53Can I really trust him?
00:29:03Hey.
00:29:05How's your day?
00:29:07Are these the, uh, designs that you're submitting to the competition?
00:29:11What do you think?
00:29:12I mean, these are gonna win, surely.
00:29:15You're gonna do great.
00:29:16But, hey, um, afterwards, would you be willing to sign with me?
00:29:21I'm already a designer at Inovar.
00:29:24I know, but I think we can make a lot of money with these.
00:29:27Is this why you've been helping me?
00:29:30Look, Serena, I can't lie. I mean, having these designs would help me, but I also care about you and what's best for you, and I want you to be happy.
00:29:37Hey, look, I appreciate you.
00:29:41Are my designs all that you're after? Is this all that there is to us?
00:29:46Serena, I, okay, you are an incredibly talented designer.
00:29:57Am I just a designer to you?
00:29:59I mean, don't you want to be the most talented designer?
00:30:02Maybe. I don't know.
00:30:08Wait, hey, hey. I'll accompany you to the awards tomorrow. How about that?
00:30:14Sefora still hasn't responded to the invite.
00:30:19That's all right, because I actually have a better candidate in mind.
00:30:24My wife, Serena Collins.
00:30:26Is the contract gonna be exclusive?
00:30:28No, look, I've seen her work, and interestingly enough, it's similar, but somehow better.
00:30:36Well, there isn't much to worry about then. I trust your judgment.
00:30:40Good. Drop some paperwork then, give her the voting shares, and promote her to the gold tier designer position.
00:30:47Good? All right.
00:30:50Zora, what should I do? I can't stop thinking about what Bella said. Is that all there is? Am I just profit margins on a checklist? Does he like me, or just my skills?
00:31:09Marriage itself is an exchange of interests, but that doesn't mean that you should settle without loving someone, or liking them at least.
00:31:20The way he looks at me.
00:31:30It's just mom's...
00:31:32Listen, forget about that.
00:31:34If you don't live your life for yourself, nobody will.
00:31:41What does your heart say?
00:31:46Leon is my only family, and Vincent... he's just... I just can't make the same mistake again.
00:32:00I got to.
00:32:04Wait.
00:32:11Why did he do this?
00:32:13Now I look like just some trophy wife like Bella.
00:32:16No.
00:32:18I got to respond. It's just gossip, honey.
00:32:22The vultures have no idea what they're talking about. It's okay.
00:32:26They have no idea.
00:32:34You're gonna win for sure.
00:32:35I think Serena is the dark horse here.
00:32:36She may not have the experience, but she absolutely has the skill.
00:32:37Aura's going to be here too. I want to see if I can get an autograph.
00:32:38We meet again. May the best woman win.
00:32:40Maybe you should ask for mercy now and spare yourself the embarrassment.
00:32:44Why do you always have to be like this?
00:32:46I heard Aura's going to be one of the judges today. The mysterious designer who came out of nowhere. What fun.
00:32:50Isn't it obvious?
00:32:51Isn't it obvious?
00:32:52I'm looking forward to it.
00:32:53Thank you all for coming to the IF Design Competition. Let's welcome our judges. Welcome Dorothy, the President of the Royal Design Academy.
00:33:06Thank you all for coming to the IF Design Competition. Let's welcome our judges. Welcome Dorothy, the President of the Royal Design Academy.
00:33:11Last but not least, let's give a warm welcome to our guest judge, the amazing Aura.
00:33:31Wow, maybe the great mommy Aura is looking down on us all right now. Will she grace us with her presence? Or are they not showing up?
00:33:49Aura never shows her face in public. It's not that irregular. Let's just go ahead and move this along.
00:33:55I will now officially announce today's winner. The third place goes to Melody Swee.
00:34:09The second place goes to Bella Miller.
00:34:16Second place is also good, Bella.
00:34:19The winner of this competition.
00:34:24Hurry up, who is it?
00:34:26The first place goes to Serena Collins.
00:34:32You are amazing.
00:34:37Look, there's your design draft.
00:34:39Oh my god, look at the signature.
00:34:42Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. Aura graces with her presence after all.
00:34:55Um, congratulations on winning first place, Serena. I'm really happy for you.
00:34:59But why didn't you-
00:35:00Oh, Jenny's designer. May I invite you to talk by the sky bar?
00:35:03Serena, I-
00:35:04You both want me to sign a contract with you?
00:35:07I value talent. Business is business, no?
00:35:10And you?
00:35:12Serena, it's your choice. Whatever you choose, I just-
00:35:15I want you to be happy.
00:35:17You want me to be happy?
00:35:19Are you helping me or are you helping yourself?
00:35:22Ms. Collins, I believe actions speak louder than words.
00:35:26Therefore, I'm willing to pay you this check of ten million dollars.
00:35:30As a signing bonus.
00:35:32And I can pay you double for whatever price you ask for.
00:35:35That's not a deal you can get anywhere else.
00:35:37Serena, hey, look. Look at me.
00:35:38It's me. Let's just talk about this.
00:35:41Money is no object.
00:35:43Whatever he can offer, I can double it.
00:35:46I won't sign with the both of you.
00:35:47I'm tired. Stop following me.
00:35:50Serena, hey, no-
00:35:55See? This is all they want.
00:35:57And you can have everything you want too.
00:35:59Money, power, even love.
00:36:02All in exchange for each other's desires.
00:36:06If you're going to be a tool, you might as well get paid for it.
00:36:09Can you stop talking?
00:36:11Serena, don't listen to her.
00:36:13Tool?
00:36:15And don't forget about your brother, too.
00:36:17If I sign this, will you release my brother?
00:36:38Of course.
00:36:39All debts will be erased.
00:36:41I'm a man of my word.
00:36:51This contract will be presented to my grandfather.
00:36:53I can't wait to save it to look on Vincent's face.
00:36:56No. I won't help you anymore.
00:36:59And besides, why do I have to meet your grandfather?
00:37:02My grandfather loves your work.
00:37:05I won't be involved with this anymore.
00:37:07You already are involved.
00:37:09This is how the game is played.
00:37:19Here's a check.
00:37:21Your brother means nothing to me.
00:37:27At least you have the decency to cultivate a useful talent.
00:37:30The most significance he can achieve in this life is leverage.
00:37:38Sister?
00:37:39Leon.
00:37:41Hey, Sister, letting me stop today.
00:37:44Wherever you are, I will find you.
00:37:46See?
00:37:47Isn't it good playing for the winning side?
00:37:51What?
00:38:07I'm sorry, Vinny.
00:38:09It was a new guy from Legal.
00:38:11He's fired now and taken care of.
00:38:14He didn't know much anyway.
00:38:17Some of the staff heard the news
00:38:19and thoughts speeding up the hiring policy would please you.
00:38:27I have to explain this to Serena.
00:38:29I just, I can't...
00:38:31I can't lose her this way.
00:38:32Yeah.
00:38:45Hey, brother.
00:38:47Want to visit our grandfather?
00:38:49Okay.
00:38:50Yeah, I'll be right there.
00:38:54Grandfather, I have good news.
00:38:56I think I found the one.
00:38:57So soon.
00:38:58Who is it?
00:39:00Indulge me a little.
00:39:02The suspense is good for the soul.
00:39:04Oh, you and your theatrics.
00:39:06Vincent, are you prepared also?
00:39:09Yes, I have a candidate in mind, but I'm still working on it.
00:39:13Okay, we'll hear it from Reginald then.
00:39:14I sign the one and only Aura.
00:39:24This is impressive.
00:39:26She's quite talented, Reginald.
00:39:28Yes.
00:39:29I remember you mentioning admiring her work and I thought,
00:39:32who better than someone like that?
00:39:34When did Aura agree to sign with you?
00:39:35I mean, did you do something to her?
00:39:38Trade secrets.
00:39:40All I can say is, she was more than happy to sign once she saw the zeros on the check.
00:39:44No, no. Serena's not the type to be moved by money. What did you do to her?
00:39:48So, you both know her? That's interesting. I'd like to meet this woman.
00:39:53Grandpa, you can meet her now.
00:39:55Jesus Designer, come in!
00:39:58Serena, what are you doing here? I mean, did he do something to you?
00:40:05Hello, I'm Aura, the creator of Azure Nebula.
00:40:13I didn't expect you to be so young. Reginald, you did well.
00:40:18Grandpa, our previous agreement?
00:40:20No, there's one week left.
00:40:23If you could match his offer.
00:40:25Yes, Grandpa.
00:40:29Hey, Serena, Serena, come on, hey!
00:40:32Is what he said in there true?
00:40:33Why did you sign with him? I mean, did he do something to you?
00:40:41Why did you sign with him?
00:40:42It's none of your business. I am not your property. I don't need to respond to anything.
00:40:47That's not, that's not what I meant. He doesn't care about you. He just wants you through your designs.
00:40:51He appreciates my work.
00:40:54I also appreciate your work and you.
00:40:57Or is it because I'm Aura?
00:40:59No.
00:41:00Or is it because you're so set on winning some pissing contest with your brother?
00:41:04Do you really think I would only sign you because of Aura?
00:41:07Enough with your games. At least Reginald is honest about why he wants my work.
00:41:11You, you can't even be honest with me.
00:41:12Do you really not know my feelings for you?
00:41:15You, okay. I don't care about the money or who you sign with. I, why didn't you at least talk to me about this first?
00:41:23I am just your wife on paper. I'm not even the real Bella Miller. Why do you care so much?
00:41:28Because they're deceiving you. Do you really think I don't care about you?
00:41:37Serena, Serena, wait.
00:41:45Where is my brother?
00:41:48How can someone draw such pretty designs yet be as dumb as a sack of rocks? The game isn't over yet.
00:41:54Your brother stays until Reginald inherits.
00:41:58What does any of this have to do with me?
00:42:00He who signs the best designer shall inherit the house.
00:42:04And that right now...
00:42:06Is you?
00:42:08Reginald thinks he won't buck, but I know better than to count my chickens before they hatch.
00:42:13See?
00:42:17All of this over an inheritance.
00:42:25See?
00:42:28You actually can think.
00:42:30And I'm just the pawn in your game, right?
00:42:34You, Vincent, Reginald, you are all the same.
00:42:38How can you be so good at drawing yet so thick when it comes to people?
00:42:43I can't believe you would betray the only man who loves you for your useless flesh brother.
00:42:48Don't talk about my brother like that.
00:42:51You're doing the same thing for your family.
00:42:53Blood is thicker than water.
00:42:56Actually, it's the blood of the Covenant that is thicker than the water of the womb.
00:43:02Common mistake amongst feeble-minded fools.
00:43:05I'm not doing this for family.
00:43:07Then why? Why are you doing this?
00:43:10Survival.
00:43:11Survival.
00:43:13I'm a survivor.
00:43:14I've learned a long time ago that if you're not taking, you'll be taken from.
00:43:17All I wanted was to design jewelry and they didn't ask for any of this.
00:43:32And they just are all the same, all of them.
00:43:35And they uprooted my life for stupid bets.
00:43:41It fell in their hands like a damn fiddle.
00:43:43I really don't think that's the case.
00:43:46You just met him, right?
00:43:48If you were a tool, he would have made you do every single thing that he wanted.
00:43:53I really don't think that he knew.
00:43:55I know that I don't know your husband very well, but he seemed genuinely happy for you when he won.
00:44:01I just, I don't know.
00:44:03I know that this is a game that rich people play, but at least he never hurt you.
00:44:08I didn't know the stakes were going to be this high.
00:44:10It feels like his family or mine and maybe, maybe I am just like them.
00:44:15Hey, Blake, um, look, Serena wasn't home last night. Just, uh, make sure she's okay.
00:44:32Right. I'll bring her back ASAP.
00:44:34No, don't do that. Just make sure she's safe. Thanks.
00:44:39How have you been? Have you found the designer yet?
00:44:50Not yet.
00:44:52You better hurry up. Only three days left.
00:44:56Now remember, the designer you found must present the best draft. That was the bet.
00:45:01Oh, you'll definitely be impressed, Grandpa.
00:45:10Sir, Miss Tracy's back in town. She'd like to have dinner with you. Miss Tracy said she can help you.
00:45:17What do you want from me this time?
00:45:35I need your best work. Give us Azure Nebula.
00:45:38I've done everything you've asked me to do.
00:45:40A Azure Nebula was completed before the contract was signed. I need your approval to use it.
00:45:46Is this another one of your petty squabbles for the inheritance?
00:45:50I won't do it. I will not be a pawn for you.
00:45:53Then your brother is worm food.
00:45:55I will get you for this. Bring the designs to swap for your brother tomorrow.
00:46:12There's less than three days left.
00:46:15Sir, you gotta do something.
00:46:18How's Serena doing?
00:46:20Well, she got pretty drunk and went to meet up with Bella.
00:46:23Sir, you need to worry about yourself first. By now, they might have squeezed a better design out of her, so we need to do something.
00:46:30Well, if we can't find somebody, then...
00:46:32I'm gonna have to do it myself.
00:46:35What, you don't believe me?
00:46:37No, I'm just worried about the time.
00:46:40Their trump card must be Azure Nebula. I don't know if we can beat that.
00:46:46Yeah, come in.
00:46:54Are you busy?
00:47:01No, of course not, Serena. Yeah, yeah, please.
00:47:06I have something to...
00:47:07I have something to...
00:47:08Tell you.
00:47:09You go first.
00:47:10Okay, I came here to tell you that I had no idea it would affect your inheritance.
00:47:14I'm so sorry, but I don't have another choice.
00:47:18Don't sweat it.
00:47:19It's not over until the fat lady sings anyway, right?
00:47:24You might need to find a new designer.
00:47:27Don't worry about it.
00:47:28Here.
00:47:29Thanks.
00:47:30Also, um...
00:47:33Look, I wanted to tell you...
00:47:35I'm not...
00:47:37Helping you because you're a part of some sort of scheme to get my father's inheritance or anything like that.
00:47:42When I saw your designs, I was truly inspired.
00:47:46I thought you'd be a better designer than Aura, that's why I signed you.
00:47:49You didn't know I was Aura?
00:47:51I didn't, no.
00:47:53I was wondering if she would show up.
00:47:55I just had no clue that...
00:47:57She would be you.
00:48:01Also, one more thing.
00:48:02I'm so sorry about all of this drama with the media people.
00:48:05I wasn't trying to pressure you into signing with me.
00:48:08It's...
00:48:10Some elite information.
00:48:13Listen.
00:48:15I'm sorry that it has come to this.
00:48:17No, look, it's okay.
00:48:18You don't need to apologize.
00:48:20I respect your decisions.
00:48:21I just wish I could've explained myself a little bit soon.
00:48:26Sorry, one second.
00:48:29Yeah?
00:48:32You found Leon?
00:48:40You found Leon?
00:48:44Yeah.
00:48:45Yeah, okay, I'll call you back.
00:48:47Bruce just got Bella's video that she sent.
00:48:50Um, he traced her to somewhere in the North District.
00:48:52They might be able to find Leon soon.
00:48:54And then I can go see my brother?
00:48:55Yes.
00:48:59Why are you helping me so much?
00:49:02Serena, what kind of a question is that?
00:49:03You are my wife.
00:49:04I will protect you.
00:49:06Always.
00:49:07I'm sorry, Vincent.
00:49:09I really thought I...
00:49:10Stop apologizing.
00:49:11I didn't explain myself well.
00:49:14As well.
00:49:16What should we do?
00:49:18Well, um...
00:49:20I do have a plan B.
00:49:22Do you need my...
00:49:23Um...
00:49:24And what plan is that?
00:49:26Tracy, don't you ever knock?
00:49:29I'll be lucky I didn't come through the window.
00:49:30Mm-hmm.
00:49:32Okay, okay.
00:49:33Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:49:34What are you doing here?
00:49:35Oh, don't you remember?
00:49:37I'm plan B.
00:49:44Can you just...
00:49:45Wait outside.
00:49:46No, no, Serena.
00:49:47It's not what it looks like.
00:49:48It's not...
00:49:49Okay, Tracy, can you please let go of me?
00:49:51Who is that woman?
00:49:53What are you playing dumb?
00:49:54That's your sister-in-law.
00:49:56You said you would marry me!
00:49:59Oh, how could you?
00:50:02Okay, what do you want this time?
00:50:04Did you see how jealous she looked?
00:50:06Yeah.
00:50:07Oh, she looked like she wanted to curse me with a voodoo doll.
00:50:09You guys need to cut this sad love story thing and just kiss already.
00:50:14You guys are practically...
00:50:15I mean, heck, you're literally already married.
00:50:16Yeah, uh, please get to the point.
00:50:20Ten million in these videos.
00:50:23I thought I got the friends and family discount.
00:50:29That is the friends and family discount.
00:50:33These are pretty good.
00:50:35Pretty good?
00:50:37I will have you know I am one of, if not the best in the business.
00:50:41Am I on that list?
00:50:43You still draw?
00:50:46Is that it? Yes?
00:50:48I'll consider it.
00:50:49Consider it.
00:50:51Okay, take your time.
00:50:53I'm gonna go talk to your new wife.
00:50:55Maybe I'll tell her your bed wedding story.
00:50:56No, please, please don't do that.
00:50:57Oh, no promises.
00:50:58No promises.
00:50:59No promises.
00:51:01No promises.
00:51:07It's tough and so you can't make such a reminder.
00:51:09I never thought that one day I might be able to give this to you.
00:51:33I always thought, would you like it?
00:51:39Who was that woman who just waltzed into the chairman's office?
00:51:43Could she be a suitor or maybe a lover?
00:51:46Well, she did barge in without being scolded.
00:51:49Maybe she's his someone.
00:51:52She was wearing all designer bling, too.
00:51:55Clearly some rich girl.
00:51:56Also, she was carrying a sketchbook.
00:51:59Aura, the great designer, are you pretending you aren't curious?
00:52:03What should I be curious about?
00:52:05She wasn't carrying a design sketch, was she?
00:52:08She's coming over.
00:52:15Your aura?
00:52:17Huh.
00:52:18Your designs are pretty good.
00:52:20Hey, you're a designer, too.
00:52:22Can we see some of your sketches?
00:52:25Google Tracy Winston.
00:52:27Oh my gosh.
00:52:28So she's their aura, huh?
00:52:30Not bad.
00:52:31Look at this.
00:52:32Not bad at all.
00:52:33She's the heiress to the Winston legacy.
00:52:34Jealous?
00:52:35I would be.
00:52:36I don't even think the great aura can compare to that.
00:52:40But how did he know my dream is to be the best designer?
00:52:41No.
00:52:42I already cost him so much.
00:52:43I can't presume I am his anything.
00:52:44Who is Tracy Winston?
00:52:45Seems like they have a close relationship.
00:52:46No.
00:52:47I already cost him so much.
00:52:48I can't presume I am his anything.
00:52:50Who is Tracy Winston?
00:52:51Seems like they have a close relationship.
00:52:57The sand is running out in your brother's hourglass.
00:52:58I've told you I won't do it.
00:52:59Kitty getting her claws out.
00:53:00Well, I can scratch it, too.
00:53:01Dream is to be the best designer.
00:53:04No, I already cost him so much.
00:53:06I can't presume I miss anything.
00:53:09Who is Tracy Winston?
00:53:11Seems like they have a close relationship.
00:53:17The sand is running out in your brother's hourglass.
00:53:20I've told you I won't do it.
00:53:22Kitty getting her claws out.
00:53:24Well, I can scratch it too.
00:53:27Leon, stop!
00:53:31What has she gotten herself into?
00:53:34It's funny, isn't it?
00:53:36Even the most useless family member can be the move that checkmates.
00:53:40Tell me where Leon is and I'll give you the design drop.
00:53:43Ten o'clock. Come to the warehouse.
00:53:45And don't be late.
00:53:47I'm not selling any sand for your brother's hourglass.
00:53:50I'll send you the coordinates.
00:53:52The south warehouse?
00:53:54Call the cops.
00:53:56And I'll make sure his funeral is a closed casket one too.
00:53:59Call the cops.
00:54:00And I'll make sure your brother's funeral is a closed casket.
00:54:04I don't like this.
00:54:05We're looking desperate.
00:54:06We're not the ones that are desperate.
00:54:07She is.
00:54:08She is.
00:54:09And you didn't tell anyone where we kept it, right?
00:54:10I didn't.
00:54:11I didn't.
00:54:12I didn't.
00:54:13I swear.
00:54:14What would I gain from telling her?
00:54:15What would I gain from telling her?
00:54:16I didn't.
00:54:17I didn't.
00:54:18I didn't.
00:54:19I didn't.
00:54:20I swear.
00:54:21What would I gain from telling her?
00:54:22Well, if it wasn't you, then it could only be him.
00:54:23Well, if it wasn't you, then it could only be him.
00:54:24What would I gain from telling her?
00:54:29A few people were found in the North warehouse.
00:54:30Maybe G13.
00:54:31Maybe G13.
00:54:32You could be hiring them to find a boy.
00:54:33This could ruin it.
00:54:34What would I gain from telling her?
00:54:35I didn't.
00:54:36I didn't.
00:54:37I swear.
00:54:38What would I gain from telling her?
00:54:39Well, if it wasn't you, then it could only be him.
00:54:40A few people were found in the North warehouse.
00:54:41Maybe G13.
00:54:42You could be hiring them to find a boy.
00:54:45It could ruin me.
00:54:46Did he find us?
00:54:53What if he comes for us?
00:54:54Don't worry about us.
00:54:57That woman is my bargaining chip.
00:54:58I can't believe he cares so much about her.
00:55:03I can't believe he cares so much about her.
00:55:06Huh.
00:55:07Go ahead!
00:55:08Go ahead.
00:55:09Get the fuck out of me.
00:55:10Get the fuck out of me.
00:55:12I'm sorry.
00:55:13Do I have a question?
00:55:14Then their weakness for each other will be their downfall.
00:55:19Would I be your weakness then?
00:55:35Should I tell Vincent?
00:55:44Hey, is, um, is Tracy still with Serena?
00:56:07Uh, seems they left the office already.
00:56:12Serena should be home by now.
00:56:14No, no, something's wrong.
00:56:19Hey, just look after the business while I go look for her, okay?
00:56:21Yeah, you're the best. Thank you.
00:56:26Serena!
00:56:28Serena! Hey!
00:56:33Yeah, hey, hey, Bruce, um, Serena is in here.
00:56:35She took all of her stuff.
00:56:36We need all hands on deck for this, okay?
00:56:38Okay.
00:56:38Here, here, here.
00:56:42Here, here.
00:56:54What?
00:56:55Oh, Vincent, you're not going to like this, Serena's in trouble, Tracy, what, where are
00:57:23I don't know. I don't know, I just, I saw her go into this warehouse, these guys took her
00:57:27and just hurry. What? All alone? Where's your shining white knight husband now? I could say
00:57:40the same for you. Don't get cute with me. Where are the designs? I'm not giving you anything
00:57:46until I see my brother. What? What is this? Where are the designs? Fool me twice? Shame
00:58:00on me, right? I won't be fooled the same way again. Let my brother go first and then I'll
00:58:06tell you where the design is. Let me go see my brother. I know he isn't here. I know,
00:58:12I know you wouldn't tell me the correct location. Who told you? Vincent Owens? Start talking
00:58:21or I will take these little designer fingers away. Tell me what I want to know. Not until
00:58:33you let my brother go. You gave Vincent the designs, didn't you? Smart move. Holding
00:58:45your designs ransom for your brother and your rescue. You wouldn't understand. Then why?
00:58:52Oh, for love. Don't make me laugh. And aren't you doing this for your precious Reginald? It is
00:59:00not the same. In this game, winner takes all. You think if the roles were reversed, it wouldn't
00:59:07be me in this chair tied up and Vincent holding a knife? Vincent is Vincent. He isn't like you
00:59:12and you aren't like me. You fight for nothing but yourself. You think you are so special.
00:59:21As soon as you age, I'll trade up. There will always be another pretty face with big puppy
00:59:28dog eyes calling for him to save her. Compared to his inheritance, his wealth, his power.
00:59:37They're nothing. And what about you? Huh? Where is your precious Reginald now? You think he's going to
00:59:45keep you because you're so useful? He has hung you out to dry. If he did care, he would be here.
00:59:51You deal with that woman first. I have business to take care of.
00:59:57What if Serena refuses to give us the designs?
01:00:00Me? You mean if she refuses to give me the designs? Well, if that's the case,
01:00:05make herself useful and make her talk. What if she really gets hurt?
01:00:17I can use the designs as leverage. Wake up. He's going to drop you after the meeting. You'll be
01:00:23just like me. Savvy, you can stop this. You still have time. Honey, what's going on?
01:00:38Honey, what's going on? She gave me blank designs. I did what you asked.
01:00:43What are you doing? I told you to talk to her properly. I apologize if my Bella seems a little
01:00:53overzealous. She tends to be passionate when it comes to me. You know what I mean. Perhaps you've
01:01:00gone from the wrong foot. My interest is she is only into Owen's family. I can let your brother go
01:01:07first. What's the catch? No catch. Just an earnest attempt to mend fences. Then take me to see Leon.
01:01:28Leon?
01:01:28Where are you now? I don't know. They just let me out. I'm getting a mover.
01:01:40Go to 168 Queens Boulevard and find Vincent Owens. You see? I held my word.
01:01:51Put the design under blacklight. You'll be able to see it.
01:01:58I'll be able to see it.
01:01:59I'll be able to see it.
01:02:00I'll be able to see it.
01:02:01Serena! Serena, hey! Serena!
01:02:03What the hell? It's it!
01:02:13It's it. How about time you showed up?
01:02:16Serena, are you okay?
01:02:17Okay, both of you get in touch with our people. Tell them to come to the South Warehouse.
01:02:22Yes, sir. Have you in the South Warehouse stat?
01:02:24Hello?
01:02:25Boss, we found the boy in the North Warehouse.
01:02:29Is he safe?
01:02:29We got in an Uber that's driven by Reginald's men. The stupid boy actually jumped out halfway there.
01:02:35We took care of it. He came with us to the hospital after we dropped your name.
01:02:37Okay, fine. Just take care of him and tell everybody to come to the South Warehouse when you're done.
01:02:42Sir, that's Tracy's car.
01:02:45Okay, fine. Go find her. Go, go, go.
01:02:49Vincent, what are you doing here? It's dangerous.
01:02:52I can't want to talk. I mean, you came here alone.
01:02:54I don't want to be a burden anymore.
01:02:56Let's cut the lovey-dovey crap before I puke, please.
01:03:01Right, you're not.
01:03:02What? I didn't do anything.
01:03:04Tell me, what do you want?
01:03:07I want my inheritance.
01:03:09I want what's rightfully mine.
01:03:12A million you would be a bonus, too.
01:03:13Don't, don't listen to him.
01:03:23Two more people left. Find them.
01:03:26See? They're all the same.
01:03:29He's hesitating.
01:03:31Gratitude only goes so far until the next skink walks by.
01:03:35Serena, I care about you very much.
01:03:40And here comes the butt.
01:03:42It's okay, Vincent. You've risked everything to save me.
01:03:46Ugh, I got bored of this.
01:03:48How about we up the stage? The woman or the inheritance?
01:03:51Decide. Now.
01:04:01Is this your trump card?
01:04:03Hey, I couldn't decide which one you like more, so why not both?
01:04:07If you didn't bring this woman all the way around the world for you, we wouldn't be here.
01:04:11If you think about it, it's really your fault.
01:04:13This is what you were doing all this time.
01:04:16Come on. It's two for the price of one. Limited time only.
01:04:20Fine. Fine. You win. Let Tracy go.
01:04:28Vincent, whatever choice you make, I'm with you.
01:04:31Ugh. Fawn for a woman. What weakness. See, that's where you and I differ.
01:04:36There's nothing I want to do in this world for that inheritance, and that's why I won.
01:04:40Haha. In fact, I can't wait to tell Grandpa who's in the ICU right now.
01:04:46I adjusted his dosage. It's always in such pain, you know, I can't bear to lose myself.
01:04:51What are you, insane? You're killing your own family?
01:04:54Family? What do you know about family, orphan boy?
01:04:57I've sacrificed everything for this family.
01:05:00Reginald, you need to stop this madness before it's too late, okay?
01:05:02Haha. Oh, brother. This isn't madness.
01:05:06This is what winning looks like. And you, you're just someone who can't protect his mother.
01:05:14He can't protect his wife. He can't protect his mistress. What a joke.
01:05:19Fine.
01:05:23I promise you.
01:05:24I promise you.
01:05:31I didn't kiss him. Say it again.
01:05:36I said, I promise you.
01:05:42The Owens family is ours.
01:05:45You mean the Owens family is mine?
01:05:48Sir, everything's taken care of.
01:05:49Everything is mine.
01:05:52You're just like your mother.
01:05:54You never know balls to crack some eggs to make an omelette.
01:05:57Who do you think you are?
01:06:01No. No. Kneel. Kneel before me and I might let you live.
01:06:09Still, a woman poisons your mind.
01:06:14You disappoint me, brother.
01:06:16Let them go.
01:06:20Still playing the hero, are we?
01:06:22Guards! Today's your last day!
01:06:32James?
01:06:34Adam?
01:06:36What's going on?
01:06:37We found everyone. And we found Miss Tracy, too. The police are outside.
01:06:41Good work.
01:06:44You think you got me?
01:06:45Let's still have an ace up my sleeve.
01:06:47Anything happens to me, then Grandpa gets it.
01:06:49You think Grandpa wouldn't see through your petty tricks?
01:06:53You think he can get the design in our time?
01:06:55Yeah, yeah. I'm working on it, but um...
01:06:57Also, I wanted to tell you something.
01:07:00Aura is my wife.
01:07:10Your brother signed a contract with your wife.
01:07:13Well, that's interesting.
01:07:15Well, no, no, no. It's not that kind of interesting, Grandpa.
01:07:19Look, I think he might try to hurt her because of me.
01:07:24Just keep an eye out.
01:07:28I, uh, I think he's going to try to do something possible.
01:07:32There's no way you could have seen through my plan.
01:07:34I was always his favorite. And her...
01:07:36Her brother is still in my hands. It's not over yet.
01:07:39You've got no cards left to play, Reggie.
01:07:41What did you say? Leon is safe, isn't he?
01:07:44He's safe. He's okay. He's in the hospital and it's nothing serious.
01:07:48Impossible. Impossible!
01:07:51Oh, what are you doing that gang scum for?
01:07:54Oh, I'm surrounded by idiots. And you, who do you think you are?
01:08:04You paid off the H gang?
01:08:16You never trust a man who can be bought. I mean, don't you remember Grandpa's teachings?
01:08:21Boss, let's take you care of.
01:08:23Someone betrayed us. One of my men took money from them. It's not my fault.
01:08:27Quiet! Speak with smokers. This is not possible.
01:08:31This... I... I refuse!
01:08:35Hey, wait down. Whoa, whoa, whoa.
01:08:41Get away, you. This is your fault, not mine. You did this. You.
01:08:45Reggie, wait, wait, wait. Go, go, go, go, go, go, go.
01:08:48No, hey. Go, take a drink. I'm okay.
01:08:51No, you're not. Serena, come here. Come here.
01:08:54Okay.
01:09:01No, no, I'm... I'm fine.
01:09:16I'm sorry. I... I should...
01:09:18It's my fault. I didn't take care of you.
01:09:32No, it's not. It's not your fault.
01:09:34I'm just so glad that you're safe.
01:09:36So, this, uh, husband of yours doesn't need a brotherly talk?
01:09:43No, stop it, Leon.
01:09:46I might be important, but I'm not that important.
01:09:50Come in.
01:09:51Mr. Owens.
01:09:57Oh, no, no, no, don't. Don't get up.
01:10:01Please, sit down.
01:10:02Oh, thank you.
01:10:06Look, I'm just here to apologize for my family and my grandson.
01:10:11I am just so very sorry you had to go through all this.
01:10:16Reginald has been arrested. It's time he's learned his lesson.
01:10:21And, um, Vincent has told me everything.
01:10:26He's much like his mother. Kind, pure of heart, thinking of others.
01:10:32His father concentrated on, on business.
01:10:36He didn't pay much attention at home.
01:10:38If he had, maybe we wouldn't all be in so much trouble.
01:10:43That's why he grew up in the orphanage.
01:10:45Hey.
01:10:50Hey.
01:10:50Grandpa.
01:10:51Vincent.
01:10:52You're here.
01:10:53I am.
01:10:54Hi.
01:10:55I'm really sorry for signing with them.
01:11:06I should have known better.
01:11:08It's okay. Don't apologize.
01:11:10You did nothing wrong.
01:11:11I should be apologizing.
01:11:12I mean, I put what I thought was important over everything.
01:11:17I mean, over you.
01:11:19And it caught you in danger.
01:11:22I just wish I could have explained everything to you a little bit sooner so that we could have avoided a lot of this.
01:11:28By the way, Mr. Owens told me that Reginald is in jail.
01:11:32Do you know if Bella's there too?
01:11:35Unfortunately, yes.
01:11:36That rat Reginald blames Bella for everything and she might be in trouble.
01:11:43Serena, look, I was so consumed by vengeance for a time that all I could think about was
01:11:50avenging my mother, taking back the family.
01:11:54When I found out that you were in danger, nothing else mattered anymore.
01:11:58All I could think about was you.
01:12:04I know what you mean.
01:12:05When I was at the warehouse yesterday, I thought about trading my life for my brothers.
01:12:15I'm with you.
01:12:20You mentioned that Tracy called?
01:12:21Yeah, she saw you having coffee and followed you, called us.
01:12:28She's a big girl.
01:12:29I wouldn't worry about her.
01:12:30She's tougher than she looks and she'll be fine.
01:12:34Aren't you going to go see her?
01:12:36She's got family there.
01:12:37What am I going to do?
01:12:40Oh, okay.
01:12:43We kind of grew up together.
01:12:44She's like an annoying little sister to me.
01:12:47She wasn't my plan B.
01:12:49If that's what you were thinking.
01:12:52So what was your plan B?
01:12:55You want to see him?
01:12:58Do you like it?
01:13:06It's a gift for you.
01:13:08It's not quite there yet.
01:13:11We're still improving on the design.
01:13:14Do you know who designed this?
01:13:16Right in front of you.
01:13:18Yeah, I know.
01:13:18I'm not just a pretty face that you know.
01:13:20I've had the, uh, the idea drawn up for a long time, but you were the primary inspiration.
01:13:29Because without you, no jewelry would ever shine.
01:13:34And I want to do this one together.
01:13:36Because now that you're here, by my side,
01:13:44my world is complete.
01:13:47Vincent.
01:13:48Wait, try this one.
01:14:05Perfect.
01:14:06It's good?
01:14:07Yeah.
01:14:07All right.
01:14:08It's great.
01:14:08It's good.
01:14:09And then at the top, you need to probably work on that.
01:14:15It's good.
01:14:16It's good.
01:14:23Just focus, okay?
01:14:26There it is.
01:14:30Let's give it a name.
01:14:31Okay.
01:14:32Um, eternal love.
01:14:36You know, um, the past 10 years,
01:14:44I've waited and have dreamt of this moment.
01:14:49Every single day.
01:14:49Me?
01:15:04It's you?
01:15:07Kept you waiting.
01:15:11Here.
01:15:11Oh, sorry.
01:15:17Let it make a safe place.
01:15:19Because we do have a bit of a replacement for you.
01:15:21Okay.
01:15:22All right.
01:15:23Here.
01:15:28Here we go.
01:15:28It's really you.
01:15:37I finally found you.
01:15:43Grandpa.
01:15:45Vincent!
01:15:45Serena!
01:15:46Oh, you guys are okay!
01:15:48Oh my gosh, I was so worried.
01:15:49There was just this guy and then...
01:15:50We're okay.
01:15:51We're okay.
01:15:52We're okay, really.
01:15:53Tracy.
01:15:54Tracy, take a breath.
01:15:56You're doing that chipmunk squeal again.
01:15:58In front of Grandfather.
01:16:04Yeah, yeah, yeah.
01:16:04Get out of here.
01:16:10This is the necklace that we designed.
01:16:13Oh, eternal love.
01:16:20I like it very much.
01:16:23Well, looks like you two have won the bet.
01:16:27Well, since that business is out of the way, there is one more thing.
01:16:31When am I going to seek some grandkids?
01:16:34I'm not going to live forever, right?
01:16:35Not yet, Grandpa.
01:16:36Not yet.
01:16:37There's one thing that I want to do first.
01:16:41I would like to give Serena here a proper wedding.
01:16:57Thank you for being in my life, for it is now brighter than ever before.
01:17:17Thank you for everything.
01:17:23My home is now where ever you are.
01:17:26Why are you two here?
01:17:40Is that how you greet your mother?
01:17:42I don't have time for this.
01:17:43I will call the police if I have to.
01:17:45You have to help Bella.
01:17:46You can't just leave her in there to die.
01:17:49What kind of mother wishes death upon her own flesh and blood?
01:17:52You don't know.
01:17:55Police told us that Bella tried to commit suicide.
01:17:58That bastard directed an Owens.
01:18:01He blamed everything on her.
01:18:02Even took her money.
01:18:03Just look at us.
01:18:04He can't live like this.
01:18:05That money wasn't yours to spend in the first place.
01:18:13I'm Bella.
01:18:16You know she doesn't have many friends.
01:18:18She needs your help.
01:18:19All right.
01:18:20We'll go and see her.
01:18:23Go.
01:18:24That's my girl.
01:18:25Get out of here.
01:18:33Let me guess.
01:18:52Mom cried her crocodile tears.
01:18:55She cares about you.
01:18:57You know that.
01:18:58If you had said dad, I would have believed you.
01:19:01That harlot only cares about money.
01:19:03So are you just gonna sit there and take this?
01:19:06That's not the Bella that I know.
01:19:08The Bella that I know doesn't roll over for anyone.
01:19:11Not any woman.
01:19:12And certainly not a man.
01:19:14You think I don't?
01:19:17Nice try.
01:19:20I lost.
01:19:22Remember?
01:19:23But I won't be anyone's pawn again.
01:19:26I clawed my way across the board to become queen,
01:19:28but I was thrown away like a pawn anyway.
01:19:30Reginald has taken everything from you.
01:19:34Are you gonna let him win?
01:19:36Are you gonna let him take your life too?
01:19:39No, you're right.
01:19:41If I don't fight back,
01:19:42I'll just be another piece of trash he used and dumped.
01:20:01I hate to admit it, but I'm...
01:20:06I kinda liked seeing you again.
01:20:08Yeah.
01:20:12I don't like anything that I did.
01:20:14I shouldn't do...
01:20:14I don't want anything I knew...
01:20:15I know.
01:20:16I can't do.
01:20:17I don't want anything.
01:20:17I do like anything that.
01:20:18Maybe I'm going to partner with anything.
01:20:19I want to wait for you.
01:20:19You can have a nice relationship with everything.
01:20:20I'm going to make sure you get it from being a giant.
01:20:21I don't want to see it.
01:20:21I wanna put it, I'm gonna want to meet you.
01:20:22I wanna make sure you....
