Transcript

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

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

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

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

00:00:20Sir, this is a coordinated attack from multiple investment funds.

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

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

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

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

00:00:47Excuse me, ma'am. Could you hold on our cleaning for just a couple minutes?

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

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

00:01:05Do I know you?

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

00:01:13What are you doing?

00:01:14You can't do this. You're just a cleaner.

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

00:01:17This is incredible.

00:01:19What's going on?

00:01:21The shorting attempt.

00:01:23It's failing.

00:01:24The price is holding.

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

00:01:30We met before.

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

00:01:32Hold on.

00:01:33Tell me.

00:01:34How could I ever repay you for this?

00:01:35If the opportunity ever arises, you could give your next contract for construction to Harrison Group.

00:01:51Jason?

00:01:52Can we have fun?

00:01:53Now?

00:01:54Mr. Yates?

00:01:55What?

00:01:56Only two bodyguards this time?

00:01:57You're not going soft on me, are you?

00:01:58No, ma'am. I just thought you might like a scream today.

00:02:04Now listen, everyone is waiting in New York for you to claim your inheritance as CEO of the Laws Group.

00:02:11Mr. Yates, you know that my investigations here aren't finished.

00:02:14Ma'am, I still don't understand why you've kept your identity a secret and why you've married this Ben Harrison fellow.

00:02:20Look, today is Ben's birthday. Anything we need to discuss, we can do it some other time.

00:02:24I'm sorry.

00:02:25I'm sorry.

00:02:26I'm sorry.

00:02:27I'm sorry.

00:02:28I'm sorry.

00:02:29I'm sorry.

00:02:30I'm sorry.

00:02:31I'm sorry.

00:02:32I'm sorry.

00:02:33I'm sorry.

00:02:34I'm sorry.

00:02:35I'm sorry.

00:02:36I'm sorry.

00:02:37I'm sorry.

00:02:38I'm sorry.

00:02:39All we need to discuss, we can do it some other time.

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

00:02:46Because what I want is a simple life.

00:02:49With Ben.

00:02:50Ma'am, at least do me a favor and let Toby walk you up to the house.

00:02:56For my sake.

00:03:07Divorce papers.

00:03:08Sign it.

00:03:16Why?

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

00:03:20The Harrison Group is practically a local celebrity now, especially since it's landed a $100 million contract.

00:03:26The Shepherd Group.

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

00:03:31The truth is, Laura, I've wanted a divorce for a very long time.

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

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

00:03:40You, a cleaning woman, handing out million dollar deals.

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

00:03:49I did.

00:03:50It was my present to Ben for his birthday.

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

00:03:58What are you doing here?

00:03:59Clearly, Ben has found himself a woman more suitable for the Harrison family.

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

00:04:07A small town rich person is royalty.

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

00:04:14Your resume boasts supermarket cashier and dinner waitress alongside janitor, doesn't it?

00:04:19Ben?

00:04:20Ben?

00:04:23What's going on?

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

00:04:27Because of her?

00:04:28Oh, please.

00:04:29I've spent years building Harrison Group.

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

00:04:33You just grew apart, that's all.

00:04:35Grown apart?

00:04:38No.

00:04:40No, I won't sign any agreement, Ben.

00:04:45I won't sign.

00:04:47Money is a motivator, isn't it?

00:04:52Ben?

00:04:53Alright.

00:04:54Here.

00:04:55A hundred thousand dollars.

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

00:04:59A hundred thousand dollars?

00:05:01I was the one that helped you make Harrison Group what it is today.

00:05:07Do you have any idea how much money I've brought in for you?

00:05:10Don't be ridiculous.

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

00:05:14This is our active charity to work.

00:05:16Here.

00:05:17A million dollars.

00:05:18Take this.

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

00:05:22Just leave and never see Ben again.

00:05:25I never expected my three years of devotion to end like this.

00:05:31Since none of you respect me.

00:05:35A cleaning lady threatening us.

00:05:38I'm so scared.

00:05:40Just leave.

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

00:05:42Think how she's gone.

00:05:43Go to written store.

00:05:44Sir?

00:05:45Laura Lewis' information.

00:05:46She's Ben Harrison's wife.

00:05:47No wonder why she wants to partner with him.

00:05:48Actually sir, Ben Harrison just divorced her.

00:05:49Divorced her?

00:05:50Wait a minute.

00:05:51Don't you remember?

00:05:52Don't you remember?

00:05:53Don't you remember?

00:05:54She's the one who helped us with a swell contract three years ago.

00:05:58Laura Lewis's information.

00:06:03She's Ben Harrison's wife.

00:06:05No wonder why she wants to partner with them.

00:06:08Actually, sir, Ben Harrison just divorced her.

00:06:11Divorced her?

00:06:13Wait a minute.

00:06:15Don't you remember?

00:06:17She's the one who helped us with the Smith contract three years ago.

00:06:21Yeah, she saved our hiding now. Remember?

00:06:25Why would Ben Harrison dump someone who just got him a hundred million dollar contract?

00:06:31I don't know.

00:06:33Let's get to the vinyl news.

00:06:37Hey! What are you doing? Let go of me!

00:06:40You attacked Amber! Apologize this instant!

00:06:46Stealing from the Harrisons.

00:06:48We gave you a generous divorce settlement, you refused it, and now you're stealing.

00:06:52She could afford it. You're a thief!

00:07:02That's mine! Give it back!

00:07:03Wait!

00:07:04That's enough!

00:07:07Laura, I want to say thank you properly for saving Shepard Group.

00:07:11It's really no worries, Mr. Shepard, but I'm just going through a divorce. You see, it's...

00:07:19Who are you?

00:07:20Laura's new squeeze.

00:07:22Excuse me. Do you know who I am?

00:07:24Is this true? You hooked up with this man while you were married to my son? Shame on you!

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

00:07:30For your information, my name is Brian Shepard. I'm CEO of the Shepard Group.

00:07:35Oh, please. A big shot like Brian Shepard wouldn't be caught dead with a cleaner.

00:07:40You really don't recognize him, do you, Amber? That's really interesting considering I thought you were the one that secured that contract for Ben.

00:07:48That's ridiculous. He doesn't look like that. My ring.

00:07:53Jason, give it back to Ms. Lewis.

00:07:55Oh, hey, what are you doing?

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

00:08:01Hold on a minute, Laura. Who the heck is this man or have you been sneaking around?

00:08:06It's a lie, ma'am. This is none of your business.

00:08:09All rabbed dead bodies. You're not going anywhere until I tell you what's going on.

00:08:14We are the Harrisons. You can't just waltz in here and take her.

00:08:18Harrison, compared to the Shepard Group, you're nobody. Now go back.

00:08:22What? Are you saying that is Brian Shepard?

00:08:25That's a lie.

00:08:26Don't you dare walk away from me, Laura. You come back here and explain yourself.

00:08:30Don't you take another step towards my son, Laura.

00:08:35Laura, does Ben even know you were the one who secured the 100 million deal?

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

00:08:45I don't feel good about going through the signing event.

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

00:08:52Oh, um, no. The event will proceed.

00:08:57Besides, I'll be there.

00:09:02There's a lot that I don't know about you, Laura.

00:09:05Who are you, truly?

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

00:09:11Um, can you pull up over here, please?

00:09:13Mr. Yates, I want you to call all of the Lewis Group's business partners and we're gonna have a meeting.

00:09:25An investment meeting. One week from today.

00:09:28Make sure everyone is there.

00:09:34Because after that meeting, I'm gonna reclaim my place as the CEO of Lewis Group.

00:09:40Oh, excellent, Ms. Lewis. I'll start making arrangements tomorrow.

00:09:44Ben Harrison, you're gonna know exactly what it feels like to lose everything.

00:09:52After this ceremony, the Harrison family will finally be considered Maplewood City royalty.

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

00:10:05Laura, what are you doing here?

00:10:08Security, get that woman out of here. We don't need cleaners at this event.

00:10:13Why wouldn't I be here? This is a business event, after all.

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

00:10:22A fancy dress doesn't make you high society, honey. Just get out.

00:10:26Don't tell me you've come looking for another rich man to play mistress for.

00:10:29You should've taken my $100,000 offer.

00:10:31Oh, Ben, do you really think that you can sign this contract without me?

00:10:36Laura, this is really important for me. Do not ruin this, okay?

00:10:40You don't belong here.

00:10:42Just get out!

00:10:48That's what you get.

00:10:54This contract is mine. To give or take away as I see fit.

00:11:01Don't be ridiculous. This is insane. Who do you think you are?

00:11:05Yeah, put that down. You have no idea what you're doing.

00:11:07Security, she's lost a mind. This is a disaster.

00:11:11Ben, this contract was supposed to be my birthday present to you, but since you clearly don't deserve it...

00:11:19You really think ripping up that contract is gonna help?

00:11:21You really think ripping up that contract is gonna help?

00:11:23You're so silly, Laura.

00:11:25Oh, please, honey. You couldn't explain business to a crew.

00:11:29a cleaning lady.

00:11:31Security, get this woman out of here before she makes another mess.

00:11:35I was the one that started this deal with the Shepherds. And after careful consideration...

00:11:41I don't think the Harrison family is worthy of working with the Shepherds.

00:11:47You really think that the Shepherd group and I could be torn up by something that you've done?

00:11:49You have no authority here.

00:11:51Of course she has the authority.

00:11:53Of course she has the authority.

00:11:55That's the man that...

00:11:57That's the man that...

00:11:59... was the man that...

00:12:01And after careful consideration,

00:12:05I don't think the Harrison family is worthy of working with the Shepherds.

00:12:09You really think that the Shepard group and I could be torn up by something that you've done?

00:12:14You have no authority here.

00:12:16Of course she has the authority.

00:12:24That's the man that Laura went with the other day. What is he doing here?

00:12:27Mr. Shepard? How does he know her?

00:12:29Is that really Brian Shepard?

00:12:32Laura, are you alright?

00:12:35Mr. Shepard, I can assure you, I don't even know this woman.

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

00:12:40There's no misunderstanding here, Mr. Harrison.

00:12:43This contract with Shepard group is officially terminated.

00:12:47Effective immediately.

00:12:51Wait a minute. This contract, I thought you said you got it.

00:12:54It's her. She ruined the contract.

00:12:56You are his mistress, aren't you?

00:12:58An affair?

00:12:59She had an affair with that man behind my son's back?

00:13:04Mom, please, it's okay. This man is-

00:13:06Don't touch me!

00:13:08That woman destroyed your career in front of everyone, has an affair and you just stand there?

00:13:13You're a disgrace.

00:13:14An adulterer.

00:13:15You deserve to be ar-

00:13:16Shut up!

00:13:17Mr. Shepard, I apologize for this whole mess.

00:13:23But I can assure you, this woman has tricked you.

00:13:26Tricked?

00:13:28Why don't you answer a question yourself then?

00:13:32What was my name before we got married?

00:13:36Laura Lewis, right?

00:13:38Lewis group?

00:13:39The financial giants?

00:13:40There's no way a Lewis is connected to this.

00:13:44That's crazy.

00:13:46There's no way you're related to the Lewis family name.

00:13:49That's absurd.

00:13:50It's-

00:13:51It's-

00:13:52It's-

00:13:53It's-

00:13:54Absurd!

00:13:55A high society heirs wouldn't waste their time in Maplewood!

00:13:58Yeah.

00:13:59Yeah, it's a lie.

00:14:00It's a lie.

00:14:01This woman was a waitress when I met her.

00:14:03In fact, I saved her from a robbery three years ago.

00:14:07She's nothing special.

00:14:08She only married me out of gratitude.

00:14:10I was just a waitress.

00:14:13How convenient for your story, Ben.

00:14:15First time I met her, she was in need of waiters at the diner.

00:14:18Okay, listen up, everybody.

00:14:20When I met her, I'd only just started my business.

00:14:23Mm-hmm.

00:14:24Now look at me.

00:14:25I'm signing multi-million dollar contracts.

00:14:27And look at her.

00:14:28Still just a clear.

00:14:30Mr. Shepherd, that woman is my son's ex-wife.

00:14:34She's doing all this out of spite.

00:14:36She's lying, Mr. Shepherd.

00:14:38She's just a cleaning lady for your business, isn't she?

00:14:43Let's make something clear.

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

00:14:49I used my resources to help my ex-husband,

00:14:54but all he saw me as was the maid.

00:14:56Don't lie.

00:14:57You were never good enough for Ben when you married him.

00:15:00Oops.

00:15:01That roof was built with lies.

00:15:04Kathy, you never respected me.

00:15:06And Ben?

00:15:07Dumping me the second you thought you were successful on your own.

00:15:11And the cheating.

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

00:15:17You were not good enough for Ben then,

00:15:19and you're certainly not good enough for him now.

00:15:21If you'd prefer to believe a liar's story,

00:15:25then the truth, Kathy.

00:15:27Consider this my resignation from the Harrisons.

00:15:30From everything.

00:15:33Wait, wait, wait, wait, Laura.

00:15:38You think you can just walk in here and, you know, ruin everything?

00:15:40And then just walk out like nothing happened?

00:15:42I don't think so.

00:15:43You're a cleaner.

00:15:44You're a cleaner that cleans toilets.

00:15:46Nobody cares about you.

00:15:48Cleaning toilets or not, at least I have my self-respect.

00:15:52I don't need a fancy title or a rich husband to feel important.

00:16:02I think there has been some sort of misunderstanding.

00:16:04I think all jobs are important.

00:16:06Right, Mom?

00:16:07Ben, what are you doing?

00:16:09But I don't think that a janitor should have some sort of influence over a deal as big as this.

00:16:14A janitor.

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

00:16:24You did claim to have been the one that secured the deal, weren't you, Miss Smith?

00:16:30Mr. Shepard, it's all a lie.

00:16:32This woman, Laura, she's just a gold digger trying to trick you.

00:16:37I... but... well...

00:16:39A lie, you say.

00:16:40Miss Smith, I believe you mentioned securing this contract for Hearth Syndrome.

00:16:45But I don't recognize you.

00:16:46Is this true, Miss Smith?

00:16:50Miss Lewis has helped me on several occasions.

00:16:53This contract was my way of showing my appreciation.

00:16:57But the contract... I mean, Laura tore it up.

00:17:01So can't we just print another one and get this signing ceremony underway?

00:17:06Reprinted, Mr. Harrison.

00:17:08Perhaps you haven't been paying attention without Miss Lewis involved in it.

00:17:13I wouldn't even consider partnering with your company.

00:17:19Today, I want to make it clear.

00:17:22Shepard Group has no plans to partner with Harrison Group in the future.

00:17:27Miss Smith, you lied to us. You destroyed everything.

00:17:33What? No, it's a misunderstanding. I can explain.

00:17:37Lewis? Lewis Family Group? This can't be.

00:17:42Believe what you want, Ben.

00:17:44Lewis Group will be holding a massive investment meeting later this week.

00:17:49Three of our vice presidents will be here in Maplewood.

00:17:54And I'm sure you can ask them if you still have any doubts about who I am.

00:18:01Everyone, listen to me.

00:18:03Shepard Group will not be partnering with Harrison.

00:18:08A man who can keep his vows to his wife cannot be trusted to keep his word on the contract.

00:18:14The charade is over, Mr. Harrison. Everyone here deserves to see the truth.

00:18:22Miss Lewis, shall we take this conversation elsewhere?

00:18:32Help!

00:18:33Mom!

00:18:34Someone get a doctor!

00:18:35Mom!

00:18:36It seems your night has taken quite the turn, Mr. Shepard.

00:18:42Indeed.

00:18:43Perhaps it's best to leave them to it.

00:18:57What? What now?

00:18:59Mom, this is not all on me.

00:19:01Not on you?

00:19:03I was trying to help.

00:19:05She cheated on you with Shepard.

00:19:07Flaunted their affair.

00:19:09Exactly.

00:19:10And those dresses?

00:19:12Who could afford those on a janitor's salary?

00:19:15Miss Smith, how could you do this?

00:19:17We trusted you completely.

00:19:20No, no.

00:19:21I got Ben the deal.

00:19:23I had no idea Shepard would fall for Bora.

00:19:26She's a liar!

00:19:28Stop it, Amber.

00:19:29You lied to us just as much as she did.

00:19:31You lied!

00:19:33You're on my side!

00:19:35And anyways, I have a plan.

00:19:37The Shepards are no one special.

00:19:40We can expose Laura in all her lies.

00:19:42Go national.

00:19:43We can make ourselves a household name.

00:19:47Now if you'll excuse me,

00:19:49I have a very important phone call to you.

00:19:51I have a very important phone call to you.

00:19:52I have a very important phone call to you.

00:19:53I have a very important phone call to you.

00:19:54I have a very important phone call to you.

00:19:56Thank you so much for tonight, Mr. Shepard.

00:19:59Thank you as well for standing up for me.

00:20:02It's alright, Laura.

00:20:03You deserve the credit for all your hard work.

00:20:05Can I ask you something?

00:20:06Do you have any place to stay tonight?

00:20:08Maybe a hotel?

00:20:10Don't worry about me, Mr. Shepard.

00:20:12I'll be fine.

00:20:14Excuse me.

00:20:15You can just drop me off.

00:20:16Actually, Laura.

00:20:17Actually, Laura.

00:20:18There is something else.

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

00:20:22Just casually, of course.

00:20:25Mr. Shepard, are you asking me out?

00:20:29Please, call me Brian.

00:20:32And yes, technically you're single now.

00:20:37Yes, that may be true, but going out with a newly divorced ex-cleaner

00:20:43isn't exactly proper.

00:20:47Proper?

00:20:49Laura, I don't give a damn about appearances.

00:20:53Tonight, I saw your intelligence and your strength.

00:20:57Those are qualities I truly admire.

00:21:01So what do you say?

00:21:03Dinner?

00:21:05Just two people getting to know each other.

00:21:07I'm sorry, Mr. Shepard.

00:21:12I actually have another appointment tonight, so I can't.

00:21:16Wait, Laura.

00:21:17Just here is fine.

00:21:21Laura?

00:21:26Laura, who is it?

00:21:28Laura, wait!

00:21:30Jason, find out who owns that car.

00:21:34And do it fast.

00:21:37Ian Lewis, who is this?

00:21:41It's Amber Smith.

00:21:43Mr. Lewis?

00:21:44I'm sorry for the late call, but I believe I have some urgent information about your family.

00:21:49I don't know who you are, Ms. Smith.

00:21:51How did you get this number?

00:21:53Don't worry about that right now.

00:21:55I believe I know someone impersonating Laura Lewis.

00:21:59Someone I know very well.

00:22:01Impersonating my name?

00:22:02And where is this fake Laura?

00:22:03Right here in Maplewood.

00:22:04And let me tell you, she's causing quite a scene.

00:22:05Well, what is she doing exactly?

00:22:08And more to the point, what do you want from me?

00:22:09In the next few days, the Lewis Group will hold an investment meeting, right?

00:22:10I want to meet with the Vice Presidents.

00:22:11All will be revealed then.

00:22:12Very well.

00:22:13I'll have my secretary arrange a meeting.

00:22:14But be warned, if this is a waste of my time.

00:22:15It won't be.

00:22:16Trust me.

00:22:17I will.

00:22:18You won't be.

00:22:19I will.

00:22:20You won't.

00:22:21I won't.

00:22:22You won't.

00:22:23You won't.

00:22:24I will.

00:22:25I won't.

00:22:26I won't.

00:22:27I won't.

00:22:28I won't.

00:22:29I will.

00:22:30I'll have my secretary arrange a meeting.

00:22:31But be warned, if this is a waste of my time.

00:22:33It won't be.

00:22:34Very well. I'll have my secretary arrange a meeting, but be warned, if this is a waste of my time, I...

00:22:42It won't be. Trust me, Mr. Lewis.

00:22:45Thank you, Mr.

00:22:51That little rascal, Laura. I wonder what she's up to now.

00:22:57That car belongs to Mr. Yeats, the Lewis family butler.

00:23:05Oh. The Lewis family? That's interesting. Could you be connected to them somehow?

00:23:14I'm not sure.

00:23:17Brian! There you are. I've missed you.

00:23:21Chloe.

00:23:23What are you up to?

00:23:25What are you doing here?

00:23:27What do you mean? Can't I visit the man I love?

00:23:30We ended things for a reason.

00:23:32It was just one teensy mistake. I was... I was a little bit tipsy. Doesn't everyone deserve a second chance?

00:23:39Teensy mistake, you said? You cheated on me.

00:23:46Is this your new fling? Ex-divorcy. Used a clean floor. It's quite the catch, you say.

00:23:54Look. My relationship with her is none of your business. And don't you dare talk about her like that.

00:24:01Please. An ex-cleaner turned social climber latching onto a wealthy businessman. It's a classic story.

00:24:09That's enough. I've got the hell out of my office.

00:24:12You want to be careful, Brian. Duke Industries still holds a lot of weight in Maplewood. If you want Shepard Group to stay afloat, you ought to be more careful.

00:24:26Seems like you've got more on your plate than Laura's secrets now.

00:24:29This is it. The Lewis Group Vice Presidents are on the top floor. Once I'm done speaking with them, I'll have Ben's company rolling in business investments.

00:24:43I'll go speak with them first, and then I'll introduce you.

00:24:47Well, well, well. Look who it is. What a surprise. Did Brian teach you already? That's none of your business.

00:24:57Now move aside, please.

00:24:58Laura, just what do you think you're doing, you street rat? You really think you can just ruin my events again? Haven't you ruined my life enough? Don't you have any shame?

00:25:06If you'll excuse me, I have an important meeting to get to.

00:25:11Oh, the nurse. After everything you've done, you think you can just waltz in here and manipulate them too?

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

00:25:23Oh, that's gold. You really think that they're gonna let you in, Laura? Please, you're no one compared to me.

00:25:29You don't deserve to be here. The only ones who don't belong here are you three.

00:25:35And you, an idiot, believing every lie that she tells you. Wake up, Ben.

00:25:42Oh, Laura! Laura, come on. Why do you always pull this on me? I mean, seriously, can't you just let me enjoy one of my events for once? I know what this is.

00:25:53So stupid.

00:25:54Oh, such a trap. Amber spoke directly with the CEO. He invited her to meet with the VPs before the main meeting.

00:26:02Yeah. Amber got me a partnership with the Lewis Group.

00:26:06And unlike some people, I have a real invitation.

00:26:09Well, before you all start celebrating, why don't you take a look at this?

00:26:17Oh, that's rich. You may have Brian Shepard fooled, but you can't fool me. I spoke to Ian Lewis himself, CEO of Lewis Group.

00:26:29Speaking of Brian, where is he right now?

00:26:33You mean my uncle? Ian, don't be ridiculous. Ian Lewis personally gave me this invitation himself. And besides, this looks fake. She's a liar.

00:26:48This is a personal invitation from Mr. Yates himself. It grants me access to the VIP elevator, which leads straight to the vice presidential suite.

00:26:58She's lying. They don't have a VIP elevator in this hotel.

00:27:06Is there a special elevator for VIPs in this hotel?

00:27:09Not that I know of.

00:27:11See? She's lying.

00:27:13There you have it, Laura. Even the hotel staff can spot a fake.

00:27:17Go on, get lost before things get worse.

00:27:22Here, take this one. Lead me to the vice presidents.

00:27:25You have no idea what you just did.

00:27:30There will be consequences.

00:27:34Besides, if you have this relationship with Ian Lewis that you claim to have, why don't you just ask him to get the two of them an invitation?

00:27:45Security! Security! We need this woman removed immediately. She is harassing me.

00:27:49We're done with your games, Laura. You're just a fraud.

00:27:52Ma'am, plays with me.

00:27:53What?

00:27:54Hold on!

00:27:56Brian Shepard?

00:27:59You think money buys you the right to walk all over people? Well, it doesn't.

00:28:03Yeah. Wasn't enough to kick us out of Maplewood, was it, huh?

00:28:06What other plans do you have to destroy this town?

00:28:09Get you out?

00:28:10After what you did to Laura, you had it coming.

00:28:13Don't play dumb.

00:28:14We know exactly what's been happening here.

00:28:16How long has this little affair been going on?

00:28:19You've been sleeping with her since she was married to my son.

00:28:22Hold on a second. An affair?

00:28:24You think Laura and I, you people are unbelievable.

00:28:32Mr. Carter, get down here ASAP. We have a situation.

00:28:37What, you think you can just boss the manager around now? Is that it?

00:28:40We'll stick around and watch you crash and burn.

00:28:42Ms. Lewis, apologies for the delay. How can I help you this evening?

00:28:46Thank you, Mr. Carter, for getting down here so quickly.

00:28:49It seems there's a misunderstanding.

00:28:52These people don't think that I belong here.

00:28:55Well, Mr. Carter, I can assure you, this woman is a cleaner.

00:28:58A cleaner? Nonsense.

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

00:29:04Exactly.

00:29:06Lewis Group, my company, has some major investments planned here in Maplewood.

00:29:13In Maplewood. I was just here investigating potential business opportunities.

00:29:17No, this woman doesn't know the difference between business and a hole in the ground.

00:29:22She's been this way since my son divorced her. She's insane.

00:29:25Actually, I met Laura three years ago at the coffee shop. She helped secure a profitable investment for Shepard Group.

00:29:33No! It's a lie! Mr. Shepard, she's tricking you too!

00:29:40You know, it's exhausting trying to argue with people who forget who helped them.

00:29:47Mr. Carter, would you mind showing me to the VIP elevator?

00:29:50Wait, is that why you're covering for her? Huh? Because of the affair? Because she slept with you?

00:29:55Excuse me, who are you and how dare you speak to Ms. Lewis that way?

00:29:59Enough of this, regret that's enough. Heaven will embarrass yourself enough.

00:30:03This is Lewis Group property. Behave or I'll call security.

00:30:07But she doesn't even have a VIP entrance access. She shouldn't be here.

00:30:12Since you're having trouble understanding them, let me make it clear.

00:30:16This hotel is owned by the Lewis family. It's mine. To come or go as I please.

00:30:29Thank you for stepping in, Brian. I owe you one. We'll talk about this later.

00:30:35Well, it seems that divorcing a powerful woman wasn't the best decision, Mr. Anderson.

00:30:48Come in!

00:30:50Excuse me, Vice-Presidents. I'm Amber Smith, General Manager of the Lewis Group Maplewood Branch.

00:30:56I believe Ian Lewis told you about our meeting today.

00:30:59Maplewood Branch? Our records don't show any Maplewood Branch, Ms. Smith.

00:31:07Are you sure you haven't gotten something mixed up?

00:31:11Ian Lew- Mr. Lewis reassured me that today we would discuss, well, expansion plans.

00:31:19Oh, expansion plans? Ms. Smith? A decision like that wouldn't be taken without board approval.

00:31:27And frankly, we haven't heard anything about Maplewood Branch.

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

00:31:34Ms. Smith, we have a very important guest arriving soon.

00:31:38Perhaps you'd like to schedule a follow-up meeting with one of our staff.

00:31:41Maybe I can stay for this guest and offer some local-

00:31:43Ms. Smith, we'd like you to leave. If you don't, we'll call security.

00:31:47We'll call security.

00:31:53Hey, stop there. This elevator is a VIP only. Back, please.

00:31:58Of course. My apologies.

00:32:05Oh, Laura?

00:32:09Vice-Presidents! It's so good to see all of you again.

00:32:13Ms. Lewis, it's been too long.

00:32:16Your return is a lifesaver, Ms. Lewis. The Lewis Group has floundered under your uncle's, well, shall we say, unconventional leadership.

00:32:26The board are begging you to come back, Ms. Lewis.

00:32:29Well, please sit. Yes, well, it is time for me to get my career back on track. We've got a meeting planned, a big one, in just a few days.

00:32:41Local powerhouses, and smaller players, too. They'll all be there in one spot.

00:32:47Ms. Lewis, we met with an Amber Smith. She claimed your uncle appointed her general manager of a Maplewood branch for the Lewis Group.

00:32:59She said that, did she? Well, Ms. Smith is a liar. There is no Maplewood branch, at least not yet.

00:33:06She lied so blatantly. It was, it's unbelievable.

00:33:09Bob, don't worry. I found a much more suitable partner. Shepard Group.

00:33:17Shepard Group? Their rise to a public company has been impressive. Do you have anything to do with that?

00:33:24So, what happens now with this Amber Smith?

00:33:29Oh, don't worry about Amber. I've got plans for her.

00:33:37Ms. Lewis, consider this your official invitation to the legend from us.

00:33:46Cheers. Cheers.

00:33:54I'm not leaving. What are you talking about? No, come on.

00:34:00Wait! I'm Amber Smith. I'm the Lewis Group manager of Maplewood branch. What are you doing? These are my guests.

00:34:05Yeah, that's right. Tell them who we are.

00:34:07Yes, we were waiting for Ms. Smith.

00:34:11Lewis Group, Maplewood branch? No such thing, ma'am. And frankly, I'm not interested in your act.

00:34:17Of course. Laura! She's probably sleeping with the manager as well.

00:34:22That's how she gets away with everything.

00:34:24You underestimate her, Kathy. She's probably sleeping with all three vice presidents.

00:34:29No way a girl like her could get into a hotel like this.

00:34:32Careful with your words. Both of you. Acquisitions like that can get you in serious trouble.

00:34:40Look who can't even get into a meeting, whilst I secure three with all the vice presidents.

00:34:45And let's not forget the mystery guests that they're bringing to Maplewood.

00:34:50Looks like she used you and tossed you aside.

00:34:52Used me? Unlike some people, I don't mind being helpful.

00:34:57You're so stupid. She threw you away like yesterday's trash.

00:35:01Don't worry, Brian. You deserve better. And let's not forget, I'm the new Maplewood branch manager of Lewis Group, appointed by the CEO of Lewis Group themselves, Ian Lewis.

00:35:12New branch manager, huh? Interesting.

00:35:17Laura Lewis? What are you doing here? Get out of here!

00:35:20You claim to be the mystery guest.

00:35:23Don't play games, Laura. I was formally invited by Lewis Group themselves to the investment meeting.

00:35:30Only the top companies get those. Looks like you're all out of luck.

00:35:33Is that so?

00:35:36Well then, there seems to be a misunderstanding.

00:35:40You see, I'm not sure if you know Miss Smith, but Lewis Group is my company.

00:35:46And I decide who goes to the meetings.

00:35:51Escort them out. Their visit is over.

00:35:53Oh, come on. This way, please.

00:35:57I'm not leaving.

00:35:59Move.

00:36:00We're not leaving again.

00:36:01Move.

00:36:02Oh, no, no, no. We're not going now.

00:36:03Okay, bye, bye, bye.

00:36:04This isn't over, Laura. You'll see.

00:36:09Thanks for waiting, Ben.

00:36:12Laura, I'm glad you're okay.

00:36:14I'm glad you're okay.

00:36:16And thank you for defending me. I really appreciate it.

00:36:24Um, are you coming to the meeting?

00:36:28Yes, but it's gonna be tricky.

00:36:34Why? I'm sure that Shepard Group got an invitation.

00:36:40Yes, Laura.

00:36:42There's something you should know.

00:36:46Is...

00:36:48Is this about Ben?

00:36:49Because I can assure you that he won't cause any problems.

00:36:53He won't even get past security.

00:36:55Laura, it's not Ben.

00:36:59It's someone else.

00:37:02Someone's causing problems for Shepard Group?

00:37:07Yes.

00:37:09Her name is Chloe Duke.

00:37:12She is daughter of the Duke family.

00:37:16She's my ex-fiancee.

00:37:19And, uh, let's say things didn't end so well between us.

00:37:24And...

00:37:27Let's just say we didn't end things so well.

00:37:29And for some reason...

00:37:32She's having a hard time moving on.

00:37:36And...

00:37:38You think that she's gonna cause problems at the meeting?

00:37:43For...

00:37:47Out of...

00:37:48Jealousy?

00:37:49There's a possibility she's kind of jealous.

00:37:53Well...

00:37:55All the more reason for you to be there.

00:37:58Besides...

00:38:00I'll be there too.

00:38:01I'll be there too.

00:38:04Laura...

00:38:07Would you consider being my guest at the meeting?

00:38:10What?

00:38:12Are you worried that this Chloe's gonna cause problems for me too?

00:38:15Maybe a little.

00:38:17But mostly...

00:38:19I wanna show them your team.

00:38:20Well...

00:38:22It's a very kind offer, Mr. Shepard.

00:38:27Laura...

00:38:32I don't care about your best.

00:38:34I just want to be by your side.

00:38:36I think I'm falling for you.

00:38:42Ryan...

00:38:43I...

00:38:48I...

00:38:49I appreciate...

00:38:50Your honesty.

00:38:51And...

00:38:52Right now...

00:38:53I...

00:38:54I'm just not...

00:38:55I...

00:38:56I just don't really have romance...

00:38:57On my mind...

00:38:58Right now.

00:38:59Just...

00:39:00With...

00:39:01With everything going on...

00:39:02And...

00:39:03Going on and...

00:39:04It's okay.

00:39:05I just want to be upfront.

00:39:07And if Chloe tries anything...

00:39:10You won't face her alone.

00:39:14There's just...

00:39:15One thing...

00:39:16I do need.

00:39:19What is it?

00:39:21A formal dress.

00:39:34Ah! Security!

00:39:35She doesn't belong here.

00:39:37This is a private store.

00:39:38Excuse me.

00:39:40We...

00:39:41Need some assistance.

00:39:42I'm looking for...

00:39:43A very particular dress.

00:39:48Wow.

00:39:49It's...

00:39:50Beautiful.

00:39:51It is.

00:39:52I'll try this one off.

00:39:53Don't bother with her.

00:39:54She can't afford anything here.

00:39:56She's just a cleaner.

00:39:57She doesn't deserve to shop you.

00:39:59She has no money.

00:40:02Yeah, exactly.

00:40:03I mean, what are you doing here?

00:40:04Can't you just leave me alone?

00:40:06I wouldn't bat an eyelash...

00:40:07If you just...

00:40:08Disappeared.

00:40:09I'm here for retail therapy.

00:40:11Oh, please.

00:40:12This store's for the A-list only.

00:40:14Not some cheatskate like you.

00:40:16Says the woman who barged into my marriage.

00:40:19Hey!

00:40:20Show some respect.

00:40:22Typical Laura.

00:40:23Just thinks she can buy anything she wants with someone else's money.

00:40:26I would have asked you, but without me, I'm sure you're already broke.

00:40:30Oh, please.

00:40:31Come on.

00:40:32We'll take the dress.

00:40:33Sir, this particular dress is not for sale.

00:40:36Uh, what do you mean you don't sell it?

00:40:38I want it.

00:40:39Name your price.

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

00:40:42This one was custom made for Miss Lewis, the Lewis Group heiress.

00:40:46The entire brand belongs to her.

00:40:48This beautiful dress is for display purposes only.

00:40:53It wouldn't suit you anyway, Amber.

00:40:55What are you talking about?

00:40:56Of course it would suit her.

00:40:57It'd fit her just fine.

00:40:59And if it wouldn't fit me, it certainly wouldn't fit your chunky self either.

00:41:03Well, buying the whole store, allow me to purchase this dress.

00:41:11Oh, please.

00:41:12Don't you know that this store belongs to Lewis Group?

00:41:14We wouldn't sell it to someone like you.

00:41:16Amber, you're not even a branch manager yet.

00:41:19You don't get to speak on behalf of Lewis Group.

00:41:22Could you please tell me more about this dress?

00:41:25Of course.

00:41:26Uh, it was custom made for Laura Lewis.

00:41:29Heiress to the Lewis Group fortune.

00:41:31And stitched in Italy, naturally.

00:41:34And apparently there are many more like it.

00:41:37High-end stores and museums around the world from her private collection.

00:41:42Laura, do you like this dress?

00:41:45Of course.

00:41:46It's custom made for me.

00:41:48I'm just here to take what's already mine.

00:41:51Oh, you can't be serious.

00:41:52There must be millions of Laura Lewis's out there in the world.

00:41:56Fine, fine.

00:41:57If it's not for sale, can't I at least try it on?

00:42:00It would look incredible on me.

00:42:02Miss, this dress is very delicate.

00:42:05If I may be frank, I don't think this would fit you properly.

00:42:10Are you calling me fat?

00:42:11Actually, on a second thought, why don't we just buy the whole brand?

00:42:17How's that sound?

00:42:18Sir, are you serious?

00:42:19You would just buy the entire brand for one dress?

00:42:22This brand is worth at least 50 million dollars.

00:42:25And to buy it for a waitress?

00:42:28Are you out of your mind?

00:42:30Yes.

00:42:31You see, even if you had the money, they wouldn't sell it to you.

00:42:33Just one second.

00:42:34Yes, this is Brian Shepherd, CEO of Shepherd Group.

00:42:41I'd like to speak with your head of acquisitions.

00:42:44I'm interested in purchasing your high fashion brand.

00:42:49What?

00:42:53Sorry, sir.

00:42:54That brand is not for sale.

00:42:57You see, if we can't have it, neither can you.

00:43:00Mr. Yates, yes, this is Laura Lewis.

00:43:07I'm calling to discuss the sale of our high-end clothing brand to Shepherd Group.

00:43:13Oh, come on.

00:43:14Calling the Lewis family butler won't get you anywhere, sweetie.

00:43:18Exactly.

00:43:19This is pathetic.

00:43:20You really think this is going to work?

00:43:21It's sad.

00:43:22Excellent.

00:43:23Thank you, Mr. Yates.

00:43:25That's all.

00:43:30Yes.

00:43:31What?

00:43:32Are you willing to summon the brand?

00:43:37Awesome.

00:43:39Hello?

00:43:40Yes.

00:43:41Wow.

00:43:42Yes, of course.

00:43:43Absolutely.

00:43:44Mm-hmm.

00:43:46Hello?

00:43:47Yes.

00:43:48Wow.

00:43:49Yes, of course.

00:43:50Absolutely.

00:43:51Mm-hmm.

00:43:53Uh, the store, along with the entire brand?

00:43:55Has been sold to Mr. Shepherd.

00:43:56The Shepherd Group is the new owner.

00:43:57How may I be upstairs today, sir?

00:43:58Well, Laura, I don't know much about fashion.

00:43:59So I would like to give you this brand to you.

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

00:44:01You don't have the kind of money to buy this store.

00:44:02Don't listen to her, Brian.

00:44:03You two, just go do whatever you do somewhere else.

00:44:04You're not welcome here.

00:44:05I want to go do whatever you do somewhere else.

00:44:08Uh, the store, along with the entire brand, has been sold to Mr. Shepherd.

00:44:09You can't be serious.

00:44:10Oh, come on.

00:44:11Sir?

00:44:12Ma'am?

00:44:13What?

00:44:14I don't know much about fashion.

00:44:15I would like to give you this brand to you.

00:44:16You can't be serious.

00:44:17You don't have the kind of money to buy this store.

00:44:18Don't listen to her, Brian.

00:44:20You two, just go do whatever you do somewhere else.

00:44:23You're not welcome here.

00:44:24I want the two of these out of my store.

00:44:30I want the two of these out of my store.

00:44:34Of course.

00:44:35Oh, come on.

00:44:36Sir?

00:44:37Ma'am?

00:44:38You're afraid I'll have to ask you to leave?

00:44:40Well, we're not leaving.

00:44:41Okay?

00:44:42Hey, hey, hey!

00:44:43This isn't over, Laura!

00:44:45Could I try the dress on now?

00:44:46Of course, Miss Lewis.

00:44:48You just follow me.

00:44:55Wow.

00:44:57Miss Lewis, this dress really was made for you.

00:45:02Laura, you look breathtaking in this dress.

00:45:08Brian, why would you do all of this for me?

00:45:14Laura, because you deserve everything beautiful in the world, and that includes this dress.

00:45:24Will you give us a chance to see where things could go?

00:45:29I...

00:45:30I need a moment.

00:45:32Perhaps we could talk some more about this after the investment meeting?

00:45:38Does that mean it could be a yes?

00:45:41Maybe.

00:45:42Maybe.

00:45:48Hi.

00:45:56Hi.

00:46:00What?

00:46:02Well, well, well.

00:46:03Look who decided to join the party.

00:46:05Playing dress-up again, Laura?

00:46:07One more disrespectful remark towards Laura, Miss Smith.

00:46:10And you understand the meaning of rude.

00:46:12You threatening my girlfriend in front of everyone?

00:46:15For this.

00:46:16This gold digger.

00:46:18You know, Ben.

00:46:19I really cared about you, even after all the horrible things you said to me after our divorce.

00:46:25I know the name of a great psychologist in New York.

00:46:28Maybe the shrinks in Maplewood aren't equipped to deal with your issues.

00:46:34Enough!

00:46:35I've had enough of this drama.

00:46:37Yeah, me too.

00:46:38Try that again, and you'll regret it.

00:46:41I'll get the hell out of my face.

00:46:43Let's see if you two even make it past the door.

00:46:46Yeah.

00:46:49I'm sorry, Miss Smith, but your name's not on the guest list.

00:46:52What?

00:46:53That's impossible.

00:46:54I was invited by the CEO himself.

00:46:57Unfortunately, neither Harrison Group or Smith Group.

00:47:02The name is on the list.

00:47:03What?

00:47:04Looks like you two won't be getting let in after all.

00:47:07You don't have an invitation.

00:47:09You're just here because of Brian.

00:47:15Let me see this.

00:47:16This doesn't even look real.

00:47:17It's different from mine.

00:47:18Why don't you ask her if it's real?

00:47:21This appears to be a VIP invitation from the Vice President.

00:47:26Why?

00:47:27Please, right this way.

00:47:29We can continue this discussion later.

00:47:31If you manage to get in.

00:47:33Sir?

00:47:34Madam?

00:47:35We recommend you leave.

00:47:36No.

00:47:37There you are!

00:47:38How dare you steal my fiancee!

00:47:39There you are!

00:47:40How dare you steal my fiancee!

00:47:41There you are!

00:47:42How dare you steal my fiancee!

00:47:44There you are!

00:47:45How dare you steal my fiancee!

00:47:46Looks like another relationship fights the dust, Laura.

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

00:47:48Get away from him!

00:47:49He's engaged to me!

00:47:50Hey, hey, hey, hey.

00:47:51Hold your horses, Gwaine.

00:47:52That ended a long time ago.

00:47:53Engaged to you.

00:47:54Everyone in Maplewood knows what you did to Brian.

00:47:58Your relationship is history.

00:47:59That was just a little tiff.

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

00:48:01Don't you know who else is?

00:48:02I'm not sure they have any help.

00:48:03How dare you steal my fiancee!

00:48:04Looks like another relationship fights the dust, Laura.

00:48:06Looks like stealing men is a habit of yours.

00:48:07Get away from him!

00:48:08He's engaged to me!

00:48:09Hey, hey, hey, hold your horses, Gwaine!

00:48:10That ended a long time ago.

00:48:11Engaged to you.

00:48:12Everyone in Maplewood knows what you did to Brian.

00:48:13Your relationship's history.

00:48:14That was just a little tiff.

00:48:15You really think that could tear us apart?

00:48:18Don't you know who I am?

00:48:21Don't pretend like you don't know.

00:48:23Oh honey, she don't recognize royalty, let alone a duke.

00:48:27She's just a maid, remember?

00:48:29I don't have time for all this drama.

00:48:32Brian, let's head inside.

00:48:36Brian, how could you choose this cleaner over me?

00:48:41Are you really going to humiliate me in front of all of Maplewood?

00:48:45There's nothing left to say, Brian. Don't make this a scene. Shall we?

00:48:55You okay, Miss Duke?

00:48:58And you are?

00:48:59Amber Smith. I'm the Maplewood branch manager of Lewis Group.

00:49:04What branch? I've never heard of it. What do you want from me?

00:49:07That Laura! She tore up my invitation.

00:49:10Do you think you can get me inside?

00:49:12What, your little manager title couldn't get you past the front door?

00:49:16Please don't waste my time.

00:49:18You're weird, I'm so happy.

00:49:19Oh my God.

00:49:20I've been ages now.

00:49:21It's like 6 months old.

00:49:22So it was waiting to pick up a rope.

00:49:23There's a lot of people he Velazquez.

00:49:25I need a chair titled.

00:49:26It's the end of the day.

00:49:27It was the end of the day.

00:49:28Everyone is so sorry.

00:49:29It's the end of the day.

00:49:30But I went to take a ride.

00:49:31It's the end of the day.

00:49:32It's the end of the day.

00:49:33My friend used to my island.

00:49:35The end of the day is a ride.

00:49:38I was so cool.

00:49:39I never heard about that.

00:49:41This is what I met.

00:49:42Oh my God.

00:49:44If I can't have Brian, neither can you.

00:49:52The Duke family has more influence than you think.

00:49:56Chloe, good to see you. I've been expecting you.

00:49:59Uncle Jones, how are you?

00:50:01Good.

00:50:03I need your help with something.

00:50:05What is it? Anything for my little Chloe.

00:50:09It's Brian.

00:50:10Who's that woman? I thought you were...

00:50:13She's a con woman.

00:50:15She actually used to be a cleaner in his company.

00:50:18What?

00:50:19Are you saying Brian left you for a cleaner?

00:50:24Well, she's pretending to be a Louis to get close to him.

00:50:28What are you planning?

00:50:30I want to destroy Shepard Group.

00:50:36Anyway, I am terribly sorry about Chloe.

00:50:39I had no idea she would be so...

00:50:43intense.

00:50:47What do you mean?

00:50:48You so should have taken her up on her offer.

00:50:51I mean, you guys are just...

00:50:54power couple.

00:50:55I see what you're doing.

00:50:59Power couple, you say.

00:51:01More like a disaster waiting to happen.

00:51:06Anyway, shall we take a seat?

00:51:08Actually, Brian, my seat is...

00:51:13is up there.

00:51:15Really?

00:51:16She doesn't deserve to sit there.

00:51:18Excuse me.

00:51:19This is my VIP invitation.

00:51:22I can sit wherever I like.

00:51:25Hey, what do you think you're doing?

00:51:27This is signed by all three VPs of Louis Group.

00:51:30Where did you get this?

00:51:33Who did you have to sleep with?

00:51:35That's enough.

00:51:37This is getting us nowhere.

00:51:39Laura is my guest.

00:51:41And I will not tolerate

00:51:43any kind of disrespect towards her.

00:51:46Got it?

00:51:48Mr. Shepard,

00:51:49what do you see in that woman?

00:51:52Miss Duke is a perfect match for you.

00:51:54She's from a good family,

00:51:56beautiful,

00:51:57and successful.

00:51:59What more could you ask for?

00:52:01That's a good question.

00:52:03Not much, actually.

00:52:05Honesty?

00:52:07That's what I want.

00:52:09And love.

00:52:11Things that are clearly

00:52:12Chloe has no idea.

00:52:14I said I was sorry.

00:52:17What more do you want?

00:52:18I've watched Chloe grow up.

00:52:20She's like a daughter to me.

00:52:22I won't allow her to be spoken to like that.

00:52:29Anyway.

00:52:31One more chance, Brian.

00:52:33Let's forget all this nonsense.

00:52:36Do it, Mr. Shepard.

00:52:38Propose right here, right now.

00:52:40Brian?

00:52:41Is this how the Duke family handles business deals?

00:52:49By forcing a ring on someone?

00:52:52Do it,

00:52:53or you can kiss goodbye all future investments

00:52:55with the Duke family.

00:52:57Don't you dare.

00:53:04You humiliate yourself.

00:53:06Dare you?

00:53:08Do you really like this nobody from nowhere?

00:53:10Yes.

00:53:13I like her.

00:53:13but I can't imagine someone like her

00:53:17interesting in me.

00:53:20The truth is,

00:53:22I wouldn't be here where I am today

00:53:24without her.

00:53:25Why would you choose someone like her?

00:53:29Exactly.

00:53:30This woman is Trevor.

00:53:31She doesn't belong here.

00:53:33Throw her out!

00:53:34You do realize

00:53:36that there is no investment meeting without me?

00:53:39Interesting turn of events.

00:53:42Perhaps it's time we shed some light

00:53:44on your mysterious past.

00:53:45Do you

00:53:46actually think

00:53:48that just because you have the name Laura

00:53:50that you're the missing heiress

00:53:52Laura Lewis?

00:53:55You know what?

00:53:56Maybe you're right, Chloe.

00:53:58How ridiculous.

00:54:00Is that what you've been telling everyone?

00:54:02I'm sure that

00:54:03the Duke family

00:54:04still values cooperation,

00:54:07but

00:54:07wow!

00:54:09Did I underestimate

00:54:10your foolishness, Chloe?

00:54:12You have no right

00:54:13to talk to Miss Duke like that.

00:54:15That's enough.

00:54:16You don't get to talk here.

00:54:18You got mad, Shepard.

00:54:19You doubt to go against Miss Duke.

00:54:21And the same applies

00:54:22to everyone else here.

00:54:23Anyone

00:54:24who insults Laura

00:54:25leaves with a black eye.

00:54:28She's willing to defend the Duke for her.

00:54:30What kind of charm does she have?

00:54:32I want to be careful, Brian.

00:54:34Don't forget that this entire hotel chain

00:54:36is owned by the Lewis Group.

00:54:38Are you willing to get blacklisted

00:54:39for this public tantrum?

00:54:42Lewis Group

00:54:42isn't blacklisting anyone,

00:54:45especially not

00:54:46Shepard Group.

00:54:51Lewis Group RS?

00:54:53You?

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

00:54:57Security!

00:54:58Remove these two impostors

00:54:59from the premises.

00:55:01Wait, Uncle Jones.

00:55:02Give Brian another chance.

00:55:05Choose, Brian.

00:55:06Me and the future you deserve

00:55:08or this

00:55:09fraud.

00:55:10Chloe,

00:55:13I have everything

00:55:15I ever wanted

00:55:16right here.

00:55:18And I wouldn't trade

00:55:19for all the power

00:55:20that took so hard to me.

00:55:22Fine.

00:55:28Short the stock

00:55:29of the Shepard Group.

00:55:30What?

00:55:30You forced my hand, Brian.

00:55:35Now Shepard Group

00:55:36is ruined.

00:55:37The Duke family,

00:55:38they can't be serious.

00:55:40Shepard Group is doomed.

00:55:41Brian,

00:55:42you don't have to do this

00:55:44for me.

00:55:46Laura,

00:55:47now we'll never let anyone

00:55:49bully you,

00:55:50let alone them.

00:55:51Thank you,

00:55:53Brian,

00:55:54for

00:55:54for believing

00:55:56in me,

00:55:57for

00:55:57protecting me.

00:56:00Now it's my turn

00:56:01to protect you.

00:56:09Listen carefully.

00:56:11I need you to protect

00:56:12the Shepard Group stock

00:56:14at all costs.

00:56:16Don't let it drop

00:56:18even one cent.

00:56:21Do you understand?

00:56:22Wow.

00:56:24Award-winning performance,

00:56:26Laura.

00:56:27But you can't possibly

00:56:28control the stock.

00:56:29I want to put your

00:56:31money where your mouth is,

00:56:33Chloe.

00:56:34If

00:56:35the Shepard stock

00:56:37holds

00:56:38for the next

00:56:40five minutes,

00:56:42you owe me

00:56:44a public apology.

00:56:56Well,

00:56:57looks like

00:56:58your five minutes

00:57:00is up.

00:57:01Let's see how

00:57:02the Shepard stock

00:57:03is doing.

00:57:08What the?

00:57:09The Shepard Group's

00:57:10stock price is...

00:57:11It's going up!

00:57:13This can't be happening.

00:57:14It must be a coincidence.

00:57:21Why didn't you

00:57:22short the stock

00:57:23like I asked?

00:57:24There was a huge

00:57:25investment.

00:57:26We couldn't compete.

00:57:27Shepard's stock price

00:57:28is being heavily

00:57:29supported.

00:57:31How did you do this?

00:57:33Like I said,

00:57:34Chloe,

00:57:36I'm

00:57:37Laura Lewis.

00:57:39No, you're not.

00:57:40You're just some

00:57:41clean-up.

00:57:41You don't have

00:57:42access to billions.

00:57:44Well,

00:57:45I think it's time

00:57:47for my apology.

00:57:53No.

00:57:54I think it's time

00:57:55for my apology.

00:57:56There is no way

00:57:57I'm apologizing to you.

00:57:59If things were

00:58:00the other way,

00:58:00would you be so

00:58:01quick to forgive me?

00:58:03Chloe,

00:58:04the truth is

00:58:05everyone here

00:58:08has seen you

00:58:09be a bully

00:58:10and a coward

00:58:12and now

00:58:13a sore loser.

00:58:17This is so humiliating

00:58:19for her.

00:58:20How did she manage that?

00:58:22Maybe she really

00:58:23is a Lewis.

00:58:25Apologize to

00:58:25Miss Lewis.

00:58:27Shut up.

00:58:28Don't you dare talk

00:58:29about Miss Duke

00:58:29like that.

00:58:31Don't forget,

00:58:32the Duke family

00:58:32own half of

00:58:33Maplewood.

00:58:34You don't lose

00:58:35that, Miss.

00:58:36Let's get out of here.

00:58:38Hold on.

00:58:40This

00:58:41is where I belong.

00:58:43And that

00:58:44is my chair.

00:58:47You can't go there.

00:58:48That is the

00:58:48VIP section.

00:58:50Only those

00:58:51invited by the

00:58:52Lewis Group

00:58:52vice presidents

00:58:53get to sit there.

00:58:55Like I said,

00:58:56Chloe,

00:58:57that's my seat.

00:58:58Had a rumor

00:59:05floating around

00:59:06a few days ago.

00:59:07Seems Miss Lewis

00:59:09caused quite a scene

00:59:10at a signing ceremony

00:59:12between her ex

00:59:13and Mr. Shepard,

00:59:15wasn't it?

00:59:16Are you planning

00:59:17another outburst,

00:59:18Laura?

00:59:18Is this how you

00:59:19charm all your men?

00:59:21Shall we?

00:59:22My pleasure.

00:59:24What are you doing?

00:59:26Let go.

00:59:27It doesn't matter

00:59:28what happened.

00:59:29I choose to stay

00:59:30by Laura's side.

00:59:32Let's go.

00:59:34Don't be absurd.

00:59:35That seat is reserved

00:59:36for a very important

00:59:37guest.

00:59:39Someone so esteemed,

00:59:41even the vice

00:59:42presidents have

00:59:43to bow low.

00:59:46And

00:59:46how

00:59:48exactly,

00:59:49Mr. Jones?

00:59:51Are you so sure

00:59:52that I'm

00:59:53not that esteemed

00:59:54guest?

00:59:55Wait,

00:59:56that's Peter Young.

00:59:57Director of Business

00:59:57Affairs at

00:59:58Lewis Group.

01:00:03Ask Peter Young.

01:00:04He decides

01:00:05which investments

01:00:05are they?

01:00:06It's Chloe Duke,

01:00:07head of Duke Industries.

01:00:09So glad you could

01:00:09join us.

01:00:10Why is everyone

01:00:10standing around?

01:00:11It's her.

01:00:12She's making a huge

01:00:13scene trying to claim

01:00:14the VIP seat.

01:00:16It's embarrassing.

01:00:17That seat's reserved

01:00:18for the Lewis Group

01:00:19VIP guest.

01:00:21Specifically,

01:00:21the family heir.

01:00:23Please get off the stage.

01:00:24Oh, yes.

01:00:26Mr. Young,

01:00:28was it?

01:00:29I think I remember you.

01:00:30You manage

01:00:31my family's investments.

01:00:34Don't pretend like

01:00:35you know what's going on.

01:00:37Please get off the stage.

01:00:39That seat's reserved

01:00:40for the Lewis family heir.

01:00:41I need to make one thing

01:00:43crystal clear.

01:00:45I am the heir

01:00:52of the Lewis family.

01:00:57This is ridiculous.

01:00:59You,

01:01:00the Lewis heir.

01:01:01Don't you know

01:01:01that Miss Lewis

01:01:02is a legend around here?

01:01:04You must be out

01:01:05of your mind

01:01:05trusting a complete

01:01:06stranger like this.

01:01:07Exactly.

01:01:08We ran a background

01:01:09check on her

01:01:10and it turns out

01:01:11she's just some cleaner

01:01:12that used to work

01:01:13for the Harrison Group.

01:01:13Before that,

01:01:15I could see her

01:01:16in my family's supermarket.

01:01:18See, Brian?

01:01:19This is who you've

01:01:20been chasing after.

01:01:21A liar and a cheat.

01:01:23Security,

01:01:24get this imposter

01:01:25out of here.

01:01:26Everyone here

01:01:27is a witness.

01:01:28Why would any of you

01:01:29trust Laura?

01:01:31If any of you

01:01:32dares to harm her,

01:01:34you have to go

01:01:35through me first.

01:01:37Brian,

01:01:38she's just a nobody.

01:01:40She's just someone

01:01:41that the Harrison Group

01:01:42ditched.

01:01:43They didn't even want her.

01:01:44What exactly

01:01:45do you see in her?

01:01:46Escort this imposter

01:01:47out of here.

01:01:48Now.

01:01:50I'm Peter.

01:01:58Peter,

01:01:59do you have any idea

01:02:00what you're doing?

01:02:02Mr. Yates,

01:02:03I'm so glad

01:02:04you could join us.

01:02:07Miss Lewis,

01:02:08sorry about the delay

01:02:09and for all the trouble

01:02:11you've had to put up with.

01:02:12It's no trouble,

01:02:14Mr. Yates.

01:02:16Luckily,

01:02:16I haven't been alone.

01:02:17I've had the great company

01:02:19of my very loyal

01:02:21friend.

01:02:23Wait a minute.

01:02:25She's Miss Lewis.

01:02:26Is this a joke?

01:02:27Mr. Young,

01:02:29you're new to the Lewis Group,

01:02:30so I can understand

01:02:32why you wouldn't recognize

01:02:33Miss Lewis.

01:02:35But you listened to lies

01:02:36without checking the facts

01:02:37and almost called the police.

01:02:42Tell me,

01:02:43Mr. Young,

01:02:44who put you up to this?

01:02:46Was it my uncle,

01:02:47Ian Lewis?

01:02:51I knew it.

01:02:56Consider this your

01:02:57termination.

01:02:58I get it now.

01:03:01This is all an act,

01:03:03right?

01:03:03Chloe,

01:03:03what are you doing?

01:03:04We still want to work

01:03:05with the Lewis family.

01:03:06Work with them?

01:03:07Are you blind?

01:03:08This woman is clearly

01:03:08having an affair

01:03:09with this old man.

01:03:11That's enough,

01:03:12young lady.

01:03:13You've got no right

01:03:14to disrespect

01:03:15the head of the Lewis Group.

01:03:17Oh,

01:03:19Chloe,

01:03:19I can't believe

01:03:20we're going through this again.

01:03:21I think you need

01:03:22some professional help.

01:03:25Maybe I could make you

01:03:26an appointment

01:03:26with a great psychiatrist.

01:03:28Chloe,

01:03:28that's enough.

01:03:30It's ridiculous.

01:03:30If you were really

01:03:31the Lewis family heir,

01:03:32you would have the ring.

01:03:33So why don't you

01:03:34show it to everyone?

01:03:35Show us the ring!

01:03:40Why don't you show that

01:03:41to everyone?

01:03:42Show us the ring!

01:03:43Show us the ring!

01:03:44Show us the ring!

01:03:45Who are you

01:03:46to make demands of me?

01:03:48I don't answer to anyone

01:03:50but myself.

01:03:50I don't need

01:03:53any of your validation.

01:03:56I don't need to know

01:03:57the ring!

01:03:57I don't need to know

01:03:57the ring!

01:03:58There's a ring!

01:04:03Vice presidents,

01:04:05I'm Chloe Duke

01:04:06of the Duke family.

01:04:07This woman

01:04:08is an imposter!

01:04:09Miss Lewis,

01:04:10we apologize

01:04:11for the delay.

01:04:13How could you

01:04:13slip that con woman

01:04:14sit there?

01:04:15Get her out of here!

01:04:16This seat

01:04:17was always

01:04:18for Miss Lewis.

01:04:20She's the special guest

01:04:21we've been waiting for.

01:04:23The investment queen.

01:04:25The real heir

01:04:26to Lewis Group.

01:04:28Laura Lewis!

01:04:30She was a divorced

01:04:31host wife.

01:04:31A janitor.

01:04:32How can she?

01:04:33She can't be.

01:04:34It's a lie.

01:04:35I'm telling you.

01:04:35It's a lie.

01:04:36Do you think we'd lie?

01:04:38We run Lewis Group.

01:04:41Oh, Chloe.

01:04:42You assaulted me

01:04:44earlier.

01:04:45And

01:04:46you came to this meeting

01:04:47to what?

01:04:48Sabotage it.

01:04:50You'll be hearing

01:04:51from our legal team.

01:04:55Is this true,

01:04:56Miss Duke?

01:04:57Did you try

01:04:58and sabotage

01:04:58this meeting?

01:05:01Yes.

01:05:02It's all true.

01:05:03She fooled us all.

01:05:04The Duke tricked us

01:05:05to keep

01:05:06Lewis Group

01:05:07out of Maplewood

01:05:08and control

01:05:09everything themselves.

01:05:10I had no idea.

01:05:12But I'm on your side.

01:05:14I can give you

01:05:15everything you need.

01:05:16All of the resources

01:05:17in Maplewood.

01:05:18Miss Lewis,

01:05:20how would you like us

01:05:21to deal with this?

01:05:23An eye

01:05:23for an eye.

01:05:27Since

01:05:28Miss Duke

01:05:29here

01:05:30loves

01:05:31ruining things,

01:05:34I'll target

01:05:35her precious

01:05:36Duke

01:05:37Industries.

01:05:38I want them

01:05:39bankrupt

01:05:40in 10 minutes.

01:05:42You're bluffing.

01:05:43You're nobody.

01:05:45You'll always be

01:05:45a nobody.

01:05:46And you can't

01:05:47touch me.

01:05:48Then

01:05:48consider this

01:05:50a test,

01:05:51Chloe.

01:05:52I didn't need

01:05:53my family's support

01:05:54with Shepard

01:05:55and I certainly

01:05:56don't need it now.

01:05:57Chloe,

01:05:58you dug your own grave.

01:06:00You think

01:06:01you can destroy

01:06:02Maplewood's leading family

01:06:03with just

01:06:04the Shepard

01:06:04group?

01:06:05Please.

01:06:07Hmm.

01:06:09We'll see.

01:06:14Dad?

01:06:16Slow down.

01:06:17What are you

01:06:18talking about?

01:06:20No.

01:06:22It's impossible.

01:06:24Chloe,

01:06:25what have you done?

01:06:26Years of hard work.

01:06:27Destroyed in minutes.

01:06:28What did you do?

01:06:35Well,

01:06:36Chloe,

01:06:37isn't this what

01:06:39you wanted?

01:06:40To give me

01:06:40a little taste

01:06:41of destruction?

01:06:42This is impossible.

01:06:44It's impossible!

01:06:46Chloe,

01:06:47what have you done?

01:06:49The news is everywhere.

01:06:51Shepard's launched

01:06:51a full-scale assault

01:06:52on the stock market.

01:06:54They're hammering

01:06:55our shares.

01:06:56Are you sure

01:06:57it's just Shepard?

01:06:58Yes!

01:06:59Shareholders

01:07:00are dumping

01:07:00our stock

01:07:01like it's a hot potato.

01:07:03We could go bankrupt.

01:07:05You've ruined everything!

01:07:06Don't worry,

01:07:07Mr. Duke.

01:07:08When your company

01:07:09does go bankrupt,

01:07:11I'll buy it.

01:07:12At a fire sale price.

01:07:13Your employees

01:07:14won't even be affected.

01:07:15Brilliant.

01:07:16A master's show

01:07:17of Ms. Lewis.

01:07:19Now,

01:07:21this

01:07:21is my event.

01:07:24Please leave.

01:07:25Ryan,

01:07:26I did this for us.

01:07:27Everything I did,

01:07:28I did for us,

01:07:29Brian!

01:07:32Chloe,

01:07:33you need help.

01:07:35These feelings

01:07:36you have for me,

01:07:37it's not love.

01:07:40It's obsession.

01:07:42Enough.

01:07:43If you don't want to ruin

01:07:44everything completely,

01:07:45you'll come with me

01:07:46right now.

01:07:48Right now.

01:07:50Laura!

01:07:51This isn't over!

01:08:01Get out of me!

01:08:03What is it?

01:08:03What?

01:08:04You hear me?

01:08:07What is going on here?

01:08:09Did they finally expose

01:08:10Laura's lies?

01:08:11Shepard Group.

01:08:13They're the new partner

01:08:13that's partnering up

01:08:14with Lewis Group

01:08:15from Maplewood.

01:08:17They're handling all future

01:08:17construction projects.

01:08:18That can't be!

01:08:21What about us?

01:08:21That was our project!

01:08:23Remember,

01:08:23Laura teamed up with Brian.

01:08:25Harrison Group

01:08:26is practically out.

01:08:27We have no chance.

01:08:28We can't give up

01:08:29that easily.

01:08:30Remember,

01:08:31Ian Lewis himself

01:08:32appointed me

01:08:33as general manager.

01:08:34In a few days,

01:08:35he promised that

01:08:36he would let us meet

01:08:37with the new heir.

01:08:38You're right.

01:08:39If we can just

01:08:39meet with the new heir,

01:08:40we can bypass the Shepards

01:08:42and meet directly

01:08:43with the Lewis Group.

01:08:44We just have to play

01:08:45their little game

01:08:46and see who comes out

01:08:47on top.

01:08:49Sure.

01:08:53Vice Presidents,

01:08:55allow me to introduce

01:08:56my associate,

01:08:58Brian Shepard.

01:08:59I'm sure I've mentioned

01:09:00him again.

01:09:01Mr. Shepard,

01:09:02finally a pleasure

01:09:03to meet you.

01:09:04We've looked into

01:09:05your company's

01:09:06financial review.

01:09:08Very impressive.

01:09:10Thank you, bud.

01:09:12A large part

01:09:12of that success

01:09:13is thanks to

01:09:14Ms. Lewis.

01:09:15No.

01:09:16She practically

01:09:17saved me from

01:09:18disaster three times

01:09:19over now.

01:09:20Brian,

01:09:20you can just

01:09:21call me Laura.

01:09:23Ms. Lewis'

01:09:24recommendation

01:09:24is very telling,

01:09:26Mr. Shepard.

01:09:28Perhaps today

01:09:28clarifies everything.

01:09:30Mr. Shepard,

01:09:31this opportunity

01:09:32is gone.

01:09:34Seize it.

01:09:36A woman like Laura

01:09:37is not easy to find.

01:09:39Thank you for

01:09:40your kind words,

01:09:40Mr. Vice President.

01:09:41Did Laura send you

01:09:51to kill me?

01:09:52Laura?

01:09:53Hardly.

01:09:54I'm Ian Lewis,

01:09:56CEO and rightful

01:09:57heir of the Lewis

01:09:58Group.

01:10:01So you're

01:10:02Laura's uncle?

01:10:03In the flesh.

01:10:05So Laura really

01:10:06is your niece?

01:10:07Yes,

01:10:08little Laura.

01:10:09She just threw away

01:10:11her birthright

01:10:12about two,

01:10:13three years ago.

01:10:14Ran off and married

01:10:15a nobody

01:10:16from Maplewood.

01:10:17I think he was

01:10:18a Harrison.

01:10:19Now Laura's got

01:10:20the VPs

01:10:20and Mr. Yates

01:10:21on her side.

01:14:34that left me

01:14:35for that tramp

01:14:36and destroyed my life!

01:14:37That's not true!

01:14:39You were the one

01:14:39who messed up!

01:14:40Brian!

01:14:41Laura!

01:14:44Stay where you are!

01:14:46You better come alone!

01:14:48Shot this knife,

01:14:50Chloe!

01:14:50This is insane!

01:14:52Insane?

01:14:53I did this for us,

01:14:54Brian!

01:14:55We were meant

01:14:56to be together!

01:14:58Us?

01:14:59You've gone crazy

01:15:00and you're out of here!

01:15:02Chloe,

01:15:03kidnapping

01:15:03is a very

01:15:05serious event.

01:15:06They're gonna

01:15:07lock you up

01:15:07for years!

01:15:09You think I care

01:15:10about jail time?

01:15:12All I care about

01:15:12is tearing you

01:15:14Do I deserve him?

01:15:17What have you done?

01:15:26Give me

01:15:27your family ring now!

01:15:29Give it to me!

01:15:30This is about

01:15:30the ring.

01:15:32Did my Uncle Ian

01:15:34put you up to this?

01:15:36You know,

01:15:37Chloe,

01:15:38trying to kill me,

01:15:40that's foolish.

01:15:42Because who do you

01:15:43think is gonna win?

01:15:45You?

01:15:46That will not hurt.

01:15:48Or...

01:15:49me?

01:15:50something a little

01:15:52bit more

01:15:52persuasive.

01:16:01Freeze!

01:16:02Don't move,

01:16:03anyone.

01:16:06Don't move.

01:16:08You're about

01:16:08to be arrested

01:16:09for kidnapping.

01:16:11Miss Lewis,

01:16:12having fun without me?

01:16:14I'm hurt.

01:16:15Are you hurt?

01:16:18No, I'm okay.

01:16:20Tell me, Chloe.

01:16:25Who put you

01:16:26up to this, Chloe?

01:16:28Why should I tell you?

01:16:29You're gonna kill me anyway.

01:16:32Chloe,

01:16:32I don't have a problem

01:16:33with you.

01:16:34But if you don't

01:16:36talk,

01:16:37your beloved

01:16:38Duke Industries

01:16:40might run into some.

01:16:42Well, I'm recording

01:16:43everything, Miss Lewis.

01:16:44So the choice

01:16:46is yours, Chloe.

01:16:47Talk,

01:16:48or face the consequences.

01:16:50Fine.

01:16:52It was Ian Lewis.

01:16:53He,

01:16:53he said he'd help Duke Industries

01:16:55if I kept you away

01:16:56from the bank room today.

01:16:59Did you get all of that,

01:17:00Mr. Yates?

01:17:01I'm recording everything,

01:17:03Miss Lewis.

01:17:03I owe every word,

01:17:07Miss Lewis.

01:17:08Are you ready

01:17:09to play a game,

01:17:10Brian?

01:17:19This is crazy.

01:17:23Are we really sure

01:17:23we can do this?

01:17:24All these big companies

01:17:25here,

01:17:25it's crazy.

01:17:27Absolutely.

01:17:28The Lewis Group

01:17:28is under new leadership.

01:17:30We can talk

01:17:31to the heiress herself.

01:17:32Exactly.

01:17:33We just need to make sure

01:17:34we make a good impression

01:17:35on the new heir.

01:17:37There's Ian Lewis now.

01:17:39You can introduce us.

01:17:40Let's go.

01:17:40Yeah.

01:17:43Hello, Ian Lewis.

01:17:44I'm Amber Smith.

01:17:45We spoke on the phone

01:17:46the other day.

01:17:47This is Ben Harrison

01:17:48from Harrison Group.

01:17:49How do you do?

01:17:50We're the company that...

01:17:51Yes, I know who you are.

01:17:53Miss Smith,

01:17:53you're the one

01:17:54who exposed

01:17:54Laura's little drama.

01:17:56Now look,

01:17:57I'm not here

01:17:57for idle chatter.

01:18:03Good evening,

01:18:04ladies and gentlemen.

01:18:04Could I ask you all

01:18:05to be seated, please?

01:18:09The moment

01:18:09you've all been waiting for.

01:18:12Tonight marks

01:18:13a new chapter

01:18:13in the life

01:18:14of the Lewis Group.

01:18:16A night where

01:18:16the rightful heir

01:18:17takes their place.

01:18:18Would you please

01:18:19join me

01:18:20in welcoming

01:18:21the heir

01:18:22to the Lewis Group,

01:18:23Miss Laura Lewis.

01:18:25Look, everybody,

01:18:26attention.

01:18:27Attention, please.

01:18:29There's been

01:18:30a recent development

01:18:32of some tragedy.

01:18:35I just got noticed

01:18:36from a phone call

01:18:37a couple of minutes ago

01:18:38that Laura

01:18:39has been in a car accident.

01:18:42And tragically,

01:18:43she hasn't made it.

01:18:45She has not survived.

01:18:48What?

01:18:50Laura Lewis is dead?

01:18:53It doesn't matter now.

01:18:54She's gone.

01:18:55Mr. Lewis,

01:18:56is this new...

01:18:56A tragic turn of events,

01:18:58Mr. Yates.

01:18:59But rest assured,

01:19:00the Lewis Group

01:19:01will continue

01:19:02under my competent leadership.

01:19:05Hold on!

01:19:07Who said that I'm dead?

01:19:10Laura!

01:19:11I don't understand.

01:19:17What's happening?

01:19:19Laura?

01:19:20But weren't you...

01:19:21My apologies

01:19:23for the delay, everyone.

01:19:25There seems to be

01:19:26some misunderstanding.

01:19:28Laura,

01:19:29what are you doing here?

01:19:30You've got to stop this.

01:19:31If you upset

01:19:32the Lewis family anymore,

01:19:32we're all doomed.

01:19:33I'll save this once.

01:19:35Back off, then.

01:19:36Thank you for coming, everyone.

01:19:43As I'm sure you know,

01:19:46tonight,

01:19:47I officially

01:19:48reclaim my title

01:19:50as the CEO

01:19:52of Lewis Group.

01:19:55Perhaps

01:19:56you

01:19:57could make some room for me.

01:19:59Uncle Ian?

01:20:00Impossible.

01:20:01How are you still alive?

01:20:03Well, clearly,

01:20:03I am alive

01:20:04and well,

01:20:05so

01:20:05why don't we get this started?

01:20:07No.

01:20:08You're not

01:20:09the rightful heir.

01:20:11You gave that away

01:20:12when you married

01:20:12Ben Harrison.

01:20:15Uncle Ian,

01:20:16is that seriously

01:20:16your argument

01:20:17that you have

01:20:18that I got married

01:20:18too quickly?

01:20:20Well,

01:20:21you went off

01:20:21to Maplewood

01:20:22three years ago

01:20:22and married a stranger

01:20:23and left me

01:20:25to work tirelessly

01:20:26keeping the company together.

01:20:28Uncle Ian,

01:20:29retire.

01:20:30Enjoy

01:20:31your retirement.

01:20:33Lewis Group

01:20:33will be perfectly fine

01:20:34without you.

01:20:35No.

01:20:36There can only be

01:20:37one heir

01:20:38and that's me

01:20:39and the rightful heir

01:20:41has possession

01:20:42of this.

01:20:44You think a ring

01:20:45makes an heir?

01:20:47You're even more foolish

01:20:48than I could have

01:20:49ever imagined.

01:20:50give that back to me.

01:20:53This?

01:20:54Yes.

01:20:55You think some

01:20:56shiny gold thing

01:20:57makes you the heir?

01:20:59Give it back.

01:21:00True leadership

01:21:02is about

01:21:03earning

01:21:04the respect

01:21:05of those around you.

01:21:07Not some stupid ring.

01:21:10Oh, my ring.

01:21:11What have you done?

01:21:11Where is it?

01:21:15My ring?

01:21:16No.

01:21:17Now,

01:21:18everyone,

01:21:18if I could have

01:21:19your attention.

01:21:20How dare you!

01:21:21Let me show you

01:21:22how a true

01:21:23heir

01:21:24earns a ring like that.

01:21:26Hmm?

01:21:27Hmm?

01:21:28Hmm?

01:21:29Hmm?

01:21:30Hmm?

01:21:31Fine.

01:21:32It was Ian Lewis.

01:21:33He...

01:21:34He said he'd help

01:21:35juking the streets

01:21:36if I kept you away

01:21:37from the bankers today.

01:21:37Hmm?

01:21:38Hmm?

01:21:39Hmm?

01:21:40Hmm?

01:21:40Oh, quite the spectacle,

01:21:42Mr. Lewis.

01:21:42Security, escort him out.

01:21:46And Ian, don't fall over.

01:21:49It's all lies.

01:21:50It's all lies.

01:21:51Fakery.

01:21:51It's fake news.

01:21:51The proof is clear.

01:21:53Get him out of here.

01:21:54Now.

01:21:58I owe all of you an apology

01:22:01for everything that's happened tonight.

01:22:03It turns out reclaiming my birthright

01:22:05didn't go as smoothly as I had hoped.

01:22:09Luckily, these past few days

01:22:11I've had

01:22:12Mr. Shepard

01:22:14by my side

01:22:15and he has been
