00:00:00Sir, our stock is being shorted aggressively. We're about to hit the limit down.
00:00:09What the hell is going on here?
00:00:12Half of you came from major investment banks.
00:00:16Our 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.
00:00:24They're shorting us simultaneously. There is nothing we can do.
00:00:28Sir, what are our next steps?
00:00:35Well, looks like Shepard Group might be bankrupt by lunchtime.
00:00:44Hey, this is a private meeting.
00:00:46Mr. Jason, excuse me ma'am. Could you hold on our cleaning for just a couple of minutes?
00:00:50Mr. Shepard, building a public company in just five years? That's impressive.
00:00:58But losing your cool over a little market turbulence? That seems out of character for you.
00:01:05Do I know you?
00:01:09What are you doing?
00:01:13What are you doing?
00:01:14You can't do this. You're just a cleaner.
00:01:15You can't be messing with the company funds.
00:01:17This is incredible.
00:01:20What's going on?
00:01:22The turning is him.
00:01:23It's failing.
00:01:24The price is holding.
00:01:27Boss, our stock price is reaching today's opening value.
00:01:34We met before.
00:01:36They're still cleaning to do Mr. Shepard.
00:01:38Tell me, how could I ever repay for this?
00:01:42If the opportunity ever arises, you could give your next contract for construction to Harrison Group.
00:01:56Jason, can we have fun now?
00:01:59No.
00:02:10Mr. Yates.
00:02:12What, only two bodyguards this time?
00:02:15You're not going soft on me, are you?
00:02:17No ma'am, I just thought you might like to scream today.
00:02:21Now listen, everyone is waiting in New York for you to claim your inheritance as CEO of the Lewis Group.
00:02:25Mr. Yates, you know that my investigations here aren't finished.
00:02:30Ma'am, I still don't understand why you've kept your identity a secret and why you've married this Ben Harrison fellow.
00:02:36Look, today is Ben's birthday. Anything we need to discuss, we can do it some other time.
00:02:42Ma'am, it really is time for you to accept your inheritance.
00:02:46Because what I want is a simple life with Ben.
00:02:50Ma'am, at least do me a favour and let Toby walk you onto the house. For my sake.
00:03:07Divorce papers, sign it.
00:03:09The
00:03:16Why?
00:03:17You are not worthy of my son anymore.
00:03:20The Harrison Group is practically a local celebrity now.
00:03:23Especially since it's landed a $100 million contract.
00:03:26The Sheppard Group.
00:03:28And you?
00:03:30You're just a clean-up.
00:03:31The truth is, Laura, I've wanted a divorce for a very long time.
00:03:34I need a wife who reflects my status.
00:03:37I secured that $100 million contract.
00:03:41You? A cleaning woman?
00:03:44Handing out million-dollar deals?
00:03:46Don't make me laugh.
00:03:50I did!
00:03:52It was my present to Ben for his birthday.
00:03:54I was the one who got Bryan 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.
00:04:07Local royalty?
00:04:09A small town rich person is royalty.
00:04:12And what qualifications do you have to judge, Miss Cleaner?
00:04:15Your resume boasts supermarket cashier and dinner waitress alongside janitor.
00:04:19Doesn't it, Ben?
00:04:23What's going on?
00:04:25Is this why you want a divorce?
00:04:27Because of her?
00:04:28Oh, please.
00:04:29I've spent years building Harrison Group.
00:04:32You're still a cleaner.
00:04:33We just grew apart, that's all.
00:04:35Growing apart?
00:04:38No.
00:04:40No, I won't sign any agreement, Ben.
00:04:45I won't sign.
00:04:49Money is a motivator, isn't it?
00:04:52Ben.
00:04:54Alright.
00:04:55A hundred thousand dollars.
00:04:56A hundred thousand dollars.
00:04:57Open up a small shop or something like that.
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.
00:05:12You've never done anything for Ben's success.
00:05:13This is our active charity to work.
00:05:17Here.
00:05:18A million dollars.
00:05:19Take this.
00:05:20You 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.
00:05:30Since none of you respect me.
00:05:35A cleaning lady.
00:05:37Threatening us.
00:05:39I'm so scared.
00:05:41Just leave.
00:05:42You already make this house stink.
00:05:43Think how she's gone.
00:05:52Go to riddance to her.
00:05:56Sir?
00:05:58Laura Lewis' information.
00:06:03She's Ben Harrison's wife.
00:06:05No wonder why she won his apartment.
00:06:07Actually sir, Ben Harrison just divorced her.
00:06:11Divorce him?
00:06:14Wait a minute.
00:06:16Don't you remember?
00:06:17She's the one who helped us with the Smith contract three years ago.
00:06:22Yeah.
00:06:23She saved our hiding there.
00:06:24Remember?
00:06:26Why would Ben Harrison dump someone who just got him a hundred million dollar contract to?
00:06:31I don't know.
00:06:33Let's get to the bottom of this.
00:06:38Hey! What are you doing? Let go of me!
00:06:40Who attacked Amber?
00:06:41I apologize this instant.
00:06:46Stealing from the Harrisons.
00:06:48We gave you a generous divorce settlement.
00:06:50You refused it.
00:06:51And now you're stealing.
00:06:53She couldn't afford it.
00:06:54You're a thief.
00:06:55You're a thief.
00:06:56You have to be a thief.
00:06:58You're a thief.

00:11:51couldn't explain business to a cleaning lady security get this woman out of here before she makes another
00:11:56mess I was the one that started this deal with the Shepherds and after careful consideration I don't think the
00:12:05Harrison family is worthy of working with the Shepherds really think that the Shepard group and I could be
00:12:11torn up by something that you've done you have no authority here of course she has the authority
00:12:16that's the man that more I went with the other day what is he doing here Mr. Shepard how does he know her is that
00:12:29really Brian Shepard Laura are you alright Mr. Shepard I can assure you I don't even
00:12:37know it this woman there must be some sort of misunderstanding there's no
00:12:41misunderstanding here Mr. Harrison this contract with Shepard group is officially
00:12:46terminated effective immediately wait a minute this contract I thought you said you got it
00:12:53it's her she ruined the contract you are his mistress aren't you an affair she had an affair
00:13:01with that man behind my son's back mom please it's okay this man is don't touch me that woman
00:13:08destroyed your career in front of everyone has an affair and you just stand there you're a disgrace
00:13:14an adulterer you deserve to be over shut up mr. Shepard I apologize for this whole mess but I can
00:13:23assure you this woman has tricked you tricked why don't you answer a question yourself what was my
00:13:32name before we got married Laura Lewis right Lewis group the financial giants there's no way a
00:13:42Lewis is connected to this that's crazy there's no way you're related to the Lewis family name
00:13:49that's absurd it's it's it's absurd a high society heiress wouldn't waste their time in neighborhood
00:13:58yeah yeah it's a lie it's a lie this woman was a waitress when I met her in fact I saved her from
00:14:03a robbery three years ago she's nothing special she only married me out of gratitude I was just a
00:14:11waitress how convenient for your story Ben first time I met her she was in need a waitress at the
00:14:18diner okay listen up everybody when I met her I'd only just started my business now look at me I'm
00:14:25signing multi-million dollar contracts look at her still just a clear mr. Shepard that woman is my son's
00:14:33ex-wife she's doing all this out of spite she's lying mr. Shepard she's just a cleaning lady for
00:14:39your business isn't she let's make something clear I was the one behind Harrison group success I use my
00:14:51resources to help my ex-husband but all he saw me as was the main don't lie you were never good enough
00:14:58for Ben when you married him oops that roof was built with lies Cathy you never respected me and Ben
00:15:07dumping me the second you thought you were successful on your own and the cheating I think
00:15:14you're blaming the wrong person you were not good enough for Ben then and you're certainly not good
00:15:20enough for him now if you'd prefer to believe a liar's story then the truth Cathy consider this my
00:15:29resignation from the Harrisons from everything oh wait wait Laura you think you can just walk in here
00:15:39and you know ruin everything and then just walk out like nothing happened I don't think so you're a
00:15:44cleaner you're a cleaner that cleans toilets nobody cares about you cleaning toilets or not at least I
00:15:50have my self-respect I don't need a fancy title or a rich husband to feel important now I think there's
00:16:03been some sort of misunderstanding I think all jobs are important right mom Ben what are you doing but I
00:16:09don't think that a a janitor should have some sort of influence over a deal as big as this a janitor
00:16:15well why don't we ask miss Smith exactly how she landed that collaboration with Shepard you did claim to
00:16:26have been the one that secured the deal weren't you Miss Smith mr. Shepard it's all a lie this woman
00:16:33Laura she's just a gold digger trying to trick you I well alive you say miss Smith I believe you
00:16:42mentioned securing this contract for Harris syndrome but I don't recognize you is this true miss Smith
00:16:48miss Lewis has helped me on several occasions this contract was my way of showing my appreciation the
00:16:59contract I mean Laura tore it up so can't we just print another one and get this signing ceremony
00:17:05underway reprinted mr. Harrison perhaps you haven't been paying attention without miss Lewis involvement I
00:17:12wouldn't even consider partnering with your company today I want to make it clear Shepard group has no
00:17:23plans to partner with Harrison group in the future miss Smith you lied to us you destroyed everything what
00:17:34no it's a misunderstanding I can explain Lewis Lewis family group this can't be believe what you want
00:17:43Ben Lewis group will be holding a massive investment meeting later this week three of our vice presidents
00:17:52will be here in Maplewood and I'm sure you can ask them if you still have any doubts about who I am
00:17:59everyone listen to me Shepard group will not be partnering with Harrison a man who can't keep his
00:18:09vows to his wife cannot be trusted to keep his word on the contract the charade is over mr. Harrison
00:18:16shepard everyone here deserves to see the truth miss Lewis shall we take this conversation elsewhere
00:18:25help mom someone get her doctor mom it seems your night has taken quite the turn Mr. Shepard
00:18:40indeed perhaps it's best to leave them to it
00:18:45what what now mom this is not all on me not on you I was trying to help she cheated on you with Shepard
00:19:06flown to their affair exactly and those dresses who could afford those on a janitor's salary
00:19:14miss Smith how could you do this we trusted you completely
00:19:18so no no I got Ben the deal I had no idea Shepard would fall for Bora
00:19:24she's a liar well stop it Amber you lied to us just as much as she did

00:29:00personally greeted miss Lewis upon her arrival in Maplewood three years ago exactly Lucas group my company has
00:29:10some major investments planned here in Maplewood I was just here investigating potential business
00:29:16opportunities this woman doesn't know the difference between business and a hole in the ground she's
00:29:22been this way since my son divorced her she's insane actually I've met Laura three years ago at the
00:29:28coffee shop she helped secure a profitable investment for Shepard group no it's a lie mr. Shepard she's

00:31:15that today we would discuss well expansion plans expansion plans miss Smith a decision like that wouldn't be
00:31:24taken without board approval and frankly we haven't heard anything about Maplewood branch but Ian Lewis assured

00:32:44smaller players too they'll all be there in one spot miss Lewis we met with an Amber Smith she claimed
00:32:53your uncle appointed her general manager of a Maplewood branch for the Lewis group she said that did she
00:33:00well miss Smith is a liar there is no Maplewood branch at least not yet she lied so blatantly it was
00:33:08just it's unbelievable Bob don't worry I found a much more suitable partner
00:33:16shepherd group shepherd crew the rise to a public company has been impressive do you have anything to do with that
00:33:25so what happens now with this Amber Smith oh don't worry about Amber I've got plans for her
00:33:35Miss Lewis consider this your official invitation to the major from us cheers

00:34:07yes we were waiting for Miss Smith Lewis group Maplewood branch no such thing ma'am and frankly I'm not
00:34:15interested in your act oh of course Laura she's probably sleeping with the manager as well that's
00:34:22how she gets away with everything you underestimate her Kathy she's probably sleeping with all three
00:34:27vice presidents no way a girl like her could get into a hotel like this careful with your words
00:34:33both of you acquisitions like that can get you in serious trouble
00:34:38look who can't even get into a meeting whilst I secure three with all the vice presidents and

00:35:21mystery guest don't play games Laura I was formally invited by Lewis group themselves to the investment
00:35:28meeting only the top companies get those looks like you're all out of luck is that so
00:35:36well then there seems to be a misunderstanding you see I'm not sure if you know Miss Smith but

00:53:48because you have the name laura that you're the missing heiress laura lewis
00:53:55you know what maybe you're right chloe
00:53:58how ridiculous is that what you've been telling everyone i'm sure that the duke family still values
00:54:05cooperation but wow did i underestimate your foolishness chloe you have no right to talk to
00:54:14miss duke like that that's enough you don't get to talk here you got mad shepherd you dare to go
00:54:20against miss duke and the same applies to everyone else here anyone who insults laura
00:54:27leaves with a black eye it's willing to defend the chick for her what kind of charm does she have
00:54:32i want to be careful brian don't forget that this entire hotel chain is owned by the lewis group
00:54:38are you willing to get blacklisted for this public tantrum the lewis group isn't blacklisting anyone

01:18:03good evening ladies and gentlemen could i ask you all to be seated please
01:18:07thank you the moment you've all been waiting for tonight marks a new chapter in the life of the lewis
01:18:15group a night where the rightful heir takes their place would you please join me in welcoming the air
01:18:22to the lewis group miss laura lewis uh look everybody attention attention please
01:18:29there's been a recent development of some tragedy i just got noticed from a phone call a couple of
01:18:37minutes ago that laura has been in a car accident and tragically she hasn't made it
01:18:44she has not survived
01:18:49what laura lewis is is dead it doesn't matter now she's gone mr lewis is this new tragic turn of
01:18:57events mr yates but rest assured the lewis group will continue under my competent leadership
01:19:05hold on who said that i'm dead
01:19:10laura
01:19:15i don't understand what's happening laura but weren't you my apologies for the delay everyone
01:19:25there seems to be some misunderstanding laura what are you doing here you you've got to stop this if you
01:19:31upset the lewis family anymore we're all doomed i'll say this once back off thank you for coming
01:19:42everyone as i'm sure you know tonight i officially reclaim my title as the ceo of lewis group
01:19:53ian
01:19:55perhaps you could make some room for me uncle ian impossible how are you still alive
01:20:03well clearly i am alive and well so why don't we get this started no you're not the rightful heir
01:20:10You gave that away when you married Ben Harrison.
01:20:15Uncle Ian, is that seriously your argument that you have that I got married too quickly?
01:20:20Well, you went off to Maplewood three years ago and married a stranger and left me to work tirelessly keeping the company together.
01:20:28Uncle Ian, retire. Enjoy your retirement. Lewis Group will be perfectly fine without you.
01:20:35No, there can only be one heir and that's me. And the rightful heir has possession of this.
01:20:44You think a ring makes an heir? You're even more foolish than I could have ever imagined.
01:20:51Give that back to me. This? Yes.
01:20:54You think some shiny gold thing makes you the heir? Give it back.
01:21:00True leadership is about earning the respect of those around you. Not some stupid ring.
01:21:09Oh, my ring! Okay, John, where is it?
01:21:15My ring! Oh!
01:21:17Now, everyone, if I could have your attention.
01:21:20How dare you!
01:21:21Let me show you how a true heir earns a ring like that.
01:21:28Talk.
01:21:30Okay.
01:21:31Fine.
01:21:32It was Ian Lewis.
01:21:33He...
01:21:34He said he'd help juking the streets if I kept you away from the bankers today.
01:21:40Oh, quite the spectacle, Mr. Lewis.
01:21:43Security, escort him out.
01:21:46And Ian, don't fall over.
01:21:48Don't fall over.
01:21:49It's all lies.
01:21:50It's all lies.
01:21:51Fakery.
01:21:52It's fake news.
01:21:53The proof is clear.
01:21:54Get him out of here.
01:21:55Now.
01:21:58I owe all of you an apology for everything that's happened tonight.
01:22:03Turns out reclaiming my birthright didn't go as smoothly as I had hoped.
01:22:09Luckily, these past few days, I've had Mr. Shepherd by my side.
01:22:16And he has been a great support.
01:22:20Lewis Group has a lot of exciting plans for Maplewood.
01:22:26I'm proud to announce that we have secured a reliable partner.
01:22:35Shepherd Group.
01:22:36What?
01:22:37Laura, hold on.
01:22:38This was never my idea.
01:22:40This was all Kathy and Amber's fault.
01:22:41I don't want a divorce.
01:22:43What?
01:22:44Ben, what are you saying?
01:22:45You came to me first.
01:22:46Classic Ben.
01:22:47Something goes wrong and you start pointing the fingers at all the women in your life.
01:22:52Just don't shut Harrison Group out.
01:22:54Just give me another chance.
01:22:56How could I shut you out?
01:22:58I'm just a cleaner, remember?
01:23:00I'm just a useless housewife.
01:23:02I don't have that power.
01:23:04What are you talking about?
01:23:07What?
01:23:08No, come on.
01:23:09Sorry.
01:23:10No, please.
01:23:11No.
01:23:12Um, Mr. Shepherd?
01:23:13Yes, Miss Lewis?
01:23:14I was wondering if maybe you wanted to grab dinner sometime on me.
01:23:25Miss Lewis, I would love to.
