00:02:56do
00:02:59Go ahead, take a seat, guys.
00:03:22Look, I've gathered you all here today for a very important announcement.
00:03:25Fifteen years ago, my mother, Mary Miller, disappeared to live a quiet life in a small town.
00:03:30But now, she is returning to take her rightful place as the CEO of the Phoenix Group, ladies and gentlemen.
00:03:37The CEO has finally returned.
00:03:39Miss Miller raised her son alone to build Phoenix Group.
00:03:43Now, after 15 years, she's coming back.
00:03:46Even out of the public eye, she remains a legend.
00:03:49No one can match what she built.
00:03:50See, although my mother's been living in seclusion, we've remained in contact over the years.
00:03:55And she's adopted three children, who I believe will be joining our company very soon.
00:04:01Sir, we can't find your mother. She isn't answering our calls.
00:04:04What? My mother is missing?
00:04:07I want to sell my blood. Please.
00:04:13I have an extremely rare blood type.
00:04:15Type AB negative.
00:04:17You need it, and I need money for my mother's surgery.
00:04:21Please.
00:04:25We are at 400.
00:04:43I have to stop now, or you'll pass out.
00:04:45No, no. Don't stop. I can do it.
00:04:50Just keep.
00:04:52Miss.
00:04:52Keep. Keep going.
00:04:54Miss.
00:04:55Miss.
00:04:57Miss.
00:04:58Miss?
00:05:13Grace.
00:05:14I told you to go home and rest.
00:05:17You just fainted from donating all that blood.
00:05:20I'm fine, doctor.
00:05:21How's my mom?
00:05:22Well, the operation was a success, but Grace, with your mother's condition, we're looking
00:05:28at some very expensive long-term care.
00:05:31Oh, I got it, doctor.
00:05:33She's my mom.
00:05:34I won't give up on her.
00:05:36She's very lucky to have you.
00:05:38I'll go work on the list of her medication.
00:05:40You adopted me, mom.
00:05:49You taught me what family was, love is.
00:05:54Don't worry.
00:05:55I'm not going to give up on you.
00:05:57I'm going to make sure you get better.
00:05:59It's been hours.
00:06:10Where is Miss Miller?
00:06:11If Miss Miller says she's returning, then she will be coming back.
00:06:14Otherwise, Mr. Miller will find her.
00:06:17When she left 15 years ago, she made all of us, even Mr. Miller, promised never to search
00:06:23for her.
00:06:25Did you reach her?
00:06:26Her phone is completely dead.
00:06:28She'd never let that happen.
00:06:30Not on the day that she's supposed to return.
00:06:33Something's not right.
00:06:36Do whatever it takes.
00:06:38Flip this city upside down.
00:06:39I don't care, but we're going to find my mother.
00:06:42Yes, sir.
00:06:42Yes, sir.
00:06:42One day at work here will cover three days of mom's medication.
00:07:01Next!
00:07:01No, sir.
00:07:03I'm here to work.
00:07:04Please, if there's any opportunity that you have, I would gladly take it.
00:07:08Come on, Grace.
00:07:09Everyone knows you passed out yesterday at the hospital.
00:07:11I can't have you dying on my sight.
00:07:13I'll lose my damn job.
00:07:14No, please, please.
00:07:15I'm begging you.
00:07:17Please.
00:07:17I really need the money.
00:07:19My mom will die without it.
00:07:20But with treatment, I mean, there's a chance that she may wake up.
00:07:25But if I give up, it's over for her.
00:07:27Please.
00:07:29If I catch you slacking off one time, I won't pay you a single penny.
00:07:37Thank you so much.
00:07:38You can trust me.
00:07:39I am a hard worker.
00:07:42Next!
00:07:45Don't worry, mom.
00:07:47I'll make enough money and you'll get better.
00:07:49All right, time for lunch.
00:08:10Get back to work as soon as you're finished.
00:08:11Grace!
00:08:16Lucy, what's wrong?
00:08:18You have to get home right now, Grace.
00:08:20Your sister and brother are selling your mom's house.
00:08:22We've turned this whole house upside down.
00:08:32I can't believe the old hag doesn't even have any savings.
00:08:35Whatever.
00:08:35Just forget it.
00:08:36Let's get down to business.
00:08:37Where's the inheritance letter?
00:08:39You see this, mom?
00:08:41You ruined our life at a better chance with a rich family.
00:08:45Now, with just one little stamp here, you'll give us what we deserve.
00:08:49As if this old hag can hear you.
00:08:51Just get it over with already.
00:08:56What are you doing?
00:09:00Mom.
00:09:01Mom, are you okay?
00:09:07You're trying to steal mom's house?
00:09:09You can't do that.
00:09:10Mom worked hard for it.
00:09:12Fine.
00:09:12If she doesn't want us to sell it, then we won't.
00:09:14Go on.
00:09:17Say it.
00:09:18Say it.
00:09:19Hey, you old hag.
00:09:20Is anyone there?
00:09:21Hello?
00:09:22Can you speak up?
00:09:23Speak up!
00:09:24Get your filthy hands off of her.
00:09:27Be honest.
00:09:28You don't actually give a shit about mom.
00:09:30You're just putting on a little show, hoping she'll magically wake up and give you everything.
00:09:34That's not true.
00:09:35That's...
00:09:36Oh, poor little Grace.
00:09:38Trying so hard, and your mommy can't even see.
00:09:40If you don't want to take care of mom, that's fine.
00:09:44I'll do it myself.
00:09:45But I'm not going to let you take anything away from her.
00:09:48Try and stop us.
00:09:49No.
00:09:56Mom?
00:09:58Mom?
00:09:59Your finger's moving.
00:10:03Would you look at that?
00:10:04She's actually losing it.
00:10:08I saw it.
00:10:09Her finger's moving.
00:10:10She's trying to tell us something.
00:10:11Mom's brain is mush.
00:10:13The only thing moving in her head are the worms eating the rest of it out.
00:10:17You stupid bitch.
00:10:34I'm tired of repeating myself, mom is dying, dead people don't need a house.
00:10:40You know, William and I just want the best for you, little sis.
00:10:44Say, you and the mayor's son are the same age, right?
00:10:49Mayor's daughter-in-law sounds awfully nice.
00:10:52What?
00:10:54The mayor's daughter-in-law?
00:10:57After you and the mayor's son tie the knot, we'll send...
00:11:00That to a nursing home far, far away.
00:11:07She takes up too much space here.
00:11:09There's the brat for my son.
00:11:11Well, son, she's the girl you said you liked, right?
00:11:23A real virgin.
00:11:25Just like me.
00:11:26All the other girls, they always run away.
00:11:29But not you.
00:11:31You'll be my first.
00:11:33Time to make you mine.
00:11:35No, no, don't touch me!
00:11:36You can't say no to me!
00:11:51My dad owns this town, nobody says no to me.
00:11:54Look at you, acting so high and mighty.
00:11:57You're still selling your blood, aren't you?
00:11:59Just for a few pennies.
00:12:00We offer you a way out of poverty, and this is the way you repay us.
00:12:06Do you know how rich and powerful the mayor is?
00:12:10Mom's gonna die because you're too proud to spread your legs for the mayor's son.
00:12:14I'm not going to marry him.
00:12:17Don't you see, Grace?
00:12:19William and I are doing this for you and Mom.
00:12:21You should be grateful.
00:12:23Half a million and she's all yours tonight.
00:12:26Steep price for an orphan.
00:12:27I don't care, Dad!
00:12:29You promised me I can have her, and I want her.
00:12:32Give them what they want.
00:12:33If you want a grandson or not, she can work for us.
00:12:36Nice to meet you.
00:12:37Ah!
00:12:42Pleasure doing business with you, sir.
00:12:45My sister's all yours.
00:12:49No, no, no!
00:12:50No, Mom!
00:12:51Mom, please!
00:12:52Don't take me, Mom!
00:12:54Mom!
00:12:57No one sells my daughter.
00:13:15Get away from my daughter!
00:13:27Oh, Mom!
00:13:33Thank God you're awake!
00:13:36Don't scare us like that again, okay?
00:13:38I didn't know what to do!
00:13:40Yeah, Mom.
00:13:41We're so happy to have you back.
00:13:43It looks like you know exactly what you're doing.
00:13:46Selling the house.
00:13:52No, Mom!
00:13:53You have the wrong idea!
00:13:55We were selling the house to help pay for your treatment!
00:13:58Treatment?
00:13:59You didn't even want to pay for Mom's surgery!
00:14:01Don't listen to Grace's lies, Mom!
00:14:03William and I have been working day and night to pay for your surgery!
00:14:07No, that's not true!
00:14:09I was selling my blood to pay back...
00:14:11Grace, I know you seduced the mayor's son and are about to marry into a powerful family,
00:14:15but that doesn't mean you can lie to Mom's face!
00:14:17Grace was trying to marry into the mayor's family so she didn't have to take care of you!
00:14:21Rose and I had no choice but to sell the house.
00:14:23Enough!
00:14:23Just because I had my eyes closed doesn't mean that I didn't hear everything you said!
00:14:32And not only were you trying to just sell the house, but you were trying to sell your sister, Grace, as well!
00:14:40Mom, I'm so glad you're awake.
00:14:43I didn't know what else to do.
00:14:45Oh, my sweet daughter.
00:14:48I heard everything.
00:14:50Everything you did to keep me safe.
00:14:52Your mother will make these ingrits pay for what they did to you.
00:15:01This...
00:15:02This is just a silly house.
00:15:05And I would have given it to you without a second thought.
00:15:09But now, after the stunt that you two pulled,
00:15:13you won't get anything.
00:15:22Well, William and I would have considered looking after you if you were even moderately wealthy.
00:15:29But you're just poor.
00:15:31Do you know how goddamn embarrassing it is to call your mother?
00:15:37Embarrassing?
00:15:38When we were orphans, nobody wanted us.
00:15:42Mom gave us a home.
00:15:43She saved us.
00:15:44Saved us?
00:15:47I didn't choose the shitty life she offered us.
00:15:50Poor people shouldn't drag others into their suffering.
00:15:54That's not fair.
00:15:55Take it back.
00:15:56You see this, you old hag?
00:16:01We already have your signature and fingerprint on the inheritance letter.
00:16:05It's too late to stop us now.
00:16:08You're not getting anything from me.
00:16:10Not a single cent.
00:16:14Grace, do you have my phone?
00:16:18Oh, Grace.
00:16:19This is your mom's phone.
00:16:21You can keep it for now.
00:16:22Doctor, this phone is really nice.
00:16:24Are you sure it belongs to my mom?
00:16:26We took it from her pocket right before the surgery.
00:16:41Miss Miller.
00:16:46Alexander.
00:16:47It's me.
00:16:52My mother was in danger.
00:16:54Thanks to her adopted daughter, Grace.
00:16:57She's safe in a small town.
00:16:58I'm heading over there to bring her back home.
00:17:00Someone who dares to threaten Miss Miller must be insane.
00:17:03Let us come with you, sir.
00:17:04We should all be there to welcome her back.
00:17:06And we'll show those who crossed her who's boss.
00:17:13Sir, I've sent John Smith to check on your mother.
00:17:15Make sure he keeps her safe until I get there.
00:17:18These people are going to regret her for crossing her.
00:17:19Yes, sir.
00:17:20I'm coming, mother.
00:17:21Wait, she has another son?
00:17:23No idea who the guy is.
00:17:25Wonder where she found this guy.
00:17:27Probably fished him out of a dumpster.
00:17:29Bet he's just as pathetic as she is.
00:17:31Another worthless charity case.
00:17:33Stop it.
00:17:34That's your brother you're talking about.
00:17:37Relax, Grace.
00:17:39Soon they'll be on their knees, begging for forgiveness.
00:17:43Who do you think you are, you old hag?
00:17:45Some kind of superhero?
00:17:46The mayor is related to Mr. Smith.
00:17:49The man who transformed the Sterling Corp into the Phoenix Group's biggest subsidiary.
00:17:55He can make any person disappear.
00:17:57And guess what?
00:17:58They just called them about Gregory's weddings.
00:18:01He should be here at any moment.
00:18:03Mr. Smith?
00:18:04You mean, John?
00:18:06Speaking as if she knows him personally.
00:18:08The man controls billions with a nerve on this woman.
00:18:12Let me explain something to you.
00:18:14Phoenix Group isn't just some company.
00:18:17They own everything.
00:18:19They're untouchable gods among men.
00:18:23She probably thinks Phoenix Group is just some bird-watching club.
00:18:28Mark my words.
00:18:30You'll all be on your knees, begging for mercy.
00:18:33And when John Smith gets here, he's going to be trembling in his boots.
00:18:39Mr. Smith has important business to attend to.
00:18:53Starting now, all roads headed to the town are closed off.
00:18:57I heard Mr. Smith has barely been seen in public ever since Ms. Miller went into hiding.
00:19:02Wow.
00:19:02If Mr. Smith is going out like this, he must be doing business with a really important person.
00:19:06I never thought I'd ever meet Ms. Miller in person.
00:19:09This is a once-in-a-lifetime chance.
00:19:12She's the pride of the city.
00:19:14But, sir, we don't even have a photo of her.
00:19:16We don't know what she looks like.
00:19:17I have other matters to attend to in that town anyway.
00:19:20Let's move out.
00:19:21We'll grab the photo later.
00:19:26Wait, you think Mr. Smith will kneel before someone like you?
00:19:31Oh, don't make me laugh.
00:19:33Oh, she's completely delusional.
00:19:36Enough.
00:19:38I won't stand here and let you insult my mother like this.
00:19:43Know your place and shut up, you stupid bitch.
00:19:54Lay a hand on my daughter one more time, and I'll make sure you don't use that hand again.
00:19:59What's wrong?
00:20:00Our money not good enough for you?
00:20:03Fine.
00:20:04Name your price.
00:20:06Everything has one.
00:20:08Just like you.
00:20:11Oh, how amusing.
00:20:14You think that you can...
00:20:15You can buy me off.
00:20:16I would love to see you try.
00:20:20Hmm.
00:20:23Word is, Miss Miller has an adoptive daughter, Grace, that's been taking care of her.
00:20:28Without her, we might not see Miss Miller again.
00:20:30This Grace Miller must be someone special.
00:20:32There aren't a lot of daughters like her out there.
00:20:36It's me.
00:20:37Make sure to arrange an exceptional gift for Miss Miller.
00:20:41And prepare something special for Grace Miller.
00:20:43Only the best for the girl that saved Miss Miller.
00:20:48Sir, John Smith should be arriving to town any moment now.
00:20:51The signal there is terrible.
00:20:53I just sent him a photo of Miss Miller.
00:20:55He should be receiving it shortly.
00:20:57Look, my mother likes to keep low profile.
00:20:59So I want you to tell our people to shut down the entire neighborhood, okay?
00:21:02I don't want anyone seeing my mother.
00:21:04Yes, sir.
00:21:05You think that you can buy me?
00:21:08Well, just look at you.
00:21:09Wearing those rags, living in this filthy place.
00:21:13And you have the nerve to reject my son.
00:21:16People like you should be on your knees, kissing our feet.
00:21:20Thanking us for the chance at a better life.
00:21:25Your son is a worthless parasite that vultures would refuse to eat.
00:21:32How dare you speak that way about my son?
00:21:50I was abandoned as a child.
00:21:53When I was 15 years old, my mom took me in and gave me a home.
00:21:58You may just see her as another nobody.
00:22:01Working lowly jobs with little money.
00:22:05But to me, she's the greatest mom in the world.
00:22:09She's my everything.
00:22:10And I'm not just going to stand here and let you humiliate her.
00:22:13Boo-hoo.
00:22:15I'm in tears.
00:22:16Who cares if we insult this old hag?
00:22:18My husband is mayor.
00:22:21And we can do anything we want.
00:22:23As a matter of fact, my son can take you right here.
00:22:26And right now if he wants.
00:22:31I'm going to teach my wife some manners.
00:22:33No, no, no.
00:22:34Stay back, please.
00:22:35You will all regret this.
00:22:39No, stay back, please.
00:22:40Holy shit.
00:22:50Is that John Smith?
00:22:51The mayor's got some family problems from what I hear.
00:22:55And he's probably just here to help them out.
00:23:01What the hell?
00:23:02No, no, no.
00:23:03Go where?
00:23:04I could assure you the consequences for spreading unverified rumors
00:23:10in front of Mr. Smith are serious.
00:23:12Mr. Smith, please let us go.
00:23:14Please, sir, let us go.
00:23:15We had nothing to do with this.
00:23:17You should be talking to that family over there
00:23:18who rejected the mayor's son.
00:23:22You're lying.
00:23:23Who dare reject Gregory Warren?
00:23:25Don't they know he's related to Mr. Smith?
00:23:27We're not lying, sir.
00:23:29You can see for yourself.
00:23:30Our house is at the end of this road.
00:23:32All right.
00:23:34Looks like I'll have to take care of this myself.
00:23:37Let go of me.
00:23:38Let go.
00:23:38Hit her again, mother.
00:23:48We offer you everything, and you choose to stay in this filth?
00:23:52Fine.
00:23:53Stay here and rot.
00:23:55My mother's love means everything to me.
00:23:57I'd rather stay in poverty by her side
00:23:59than live in a cage without her.
00:24:03Too bad that's not your decision to make.
00:24:05Too bad that's not your decision to make.
00:24:11Mr. Smith?
00:24:12He actually came.
00:24:13Only the famous John Smith could arrive in such style.
00:24:16Mr. Smith, thank you for coming.
00:24:19What's going on here?
00:24:20You're related to someone like me.
00:24:21Finding your son or wife should be the easiest thing in the world.
00:24:24It's these arrogant fools, sir.
00:24:26They have no idea the privilege they're throwing away.
00:24:30And Mr. Smith, they even had the audacity to threaten you.
00:24:33Said you would tremble before him.
00:24:35What?
00:24:36Someone dare threaten the John Smith, the head of Phoenix Group's most powerful subsidiary?
00:24:43The man that no one crosses.
00:24:46Yes, it's that woman right over there.
00:24:48Hello, John.
00:24:57Why does her voice sound so familiar?
00:25:01Just now, Phoenix Group's CEO, Mary Miller, one of the most powerful figures in our city,
00:25:07has relinquished full control of the company to her son.
00:25:12Mary, do you have anything to say?
00:25:14Anything to say at all, Mary, about the transition of power?
00:25:16Ms. Miller.
00:25:18Ms. Miller.
00:25:21Ms. Miller, I owe everything to you.
00:25:24You started Sterling Corps and gave me my position.
00:25:27If you're really planning on leaving Phoenix Group, please, at least, let me drive you home.
00:25:34If you really want to share your gratitude, take good care of Sterling Group.
00:25:38I'm counting on you.
00:25:44How dare you use Mr. Smith's first name?
00:25:47Keep our boss's name out of your mouth or else I'll-
00:25:49Wait!
00:25:54You keep our boss's name out of your mouth or else I'll-
00:25:57Wait!
00:25:59You.
00:26:00You know who I am.
00:26:01Mr. Smith, listen to this filth trying to pretend she knows you.
00:26:05Yes, I do know you, John.
00:26:09How dare you address Mr. Smith like that?
00:26:12Trash like you should show respect!
00:26:15Mr. Smith, this is just some old woman who works as a cheap laborer at the orphanage nearby.
00:26:21A day laborer?
00:26:22I must have mistaken her for someone else.
00:26:24What happened to all your threats?
00:26:26Weren't you just saying how Mr. Smith would tremble and fall to his knees?
00:26:30You said that?
00:26:31I did.
00:26:32Who do you think you are, huh?
00:26:35Don't touch my mom.
00:26:38Oh, you want to be brave too?
00:26:40Huh?
00:26:42Mr. Smith, it's a message for Mr. Miller.
00:26:45It's a photo of Mrs. Miller.
00:26:46It's a photo of Mrs. Miller.
00:26:54You mean Mrs. Miller?
00:26:55Yeah.
00:26:56She's Phoenix Group's CEO.
00:26:58They say she controls all the city.
00:27:00But she disappeared years ago when she gave control to her son when he turned 18.
00:27:05We could have been living the high life if she had adopted us instead of being stuck with this worthless woman.
00:27:10Mr. Smith, you see, everything's ready for the wedding.
00:27:14If you could just help us convince the bride.
00:27:17Mrs. Miller is here in town somewhere.
00:27:19I have to find and greet her.
00:27:21I can't let this petty situation get in the way.
00:27:23Take her to the church.
00:27:25No, let me go.
00:27:26I won't marry him.
00:27:28I need to stay with my mom.
00:27:29Try to get past me.
00:27:31See how that works.
00:27:37Try to get past me.
00:27:38See how that works out for you.
00:27:40Move aside, ma'am.
00:27:41Mr. Smith is due to welcome back the CEO of Phoenix Group.
00:27:45If you and your daughter get in the way, you'll pay the price.
00:27:51So, this is how you run Sterling Group now.
00:27:55Torment the weak?
00:27:57Throw your weight around?
00:27:59Shut your damn mouth.
00:28:01Stripper.
00:28:03Let her mother watch what happens to people who define you.
00:28:06You are making your last mistake.
00:28:11You think I'm scared of some empty threats from an old hag in a wheelchair?
00:28:15What are you going to do about it?
00:28:18No, no, no.
00:28:19No!
00:28:20No!
00:28:21No!
00:28:21How could I be so foolish?
00:28:49Miss Miller, the CEO of Phoenix Group, is right in front of my eyes.
00:28:54Mr. Smith is about to teach this old woman a lesson that she should never open her mouth. Just watch.
00:29:01Well, that'll teach you to disrespect someone like Mr. Smith.
00:29:04Crawl on the ground and beg for forgiveness, you pathetic old hag.
00:29:07That's right. Go on and grovel before he destroys you.
00:29:12I have no need to apologize. I meant every word that I said.
00:29:17I said that when John Smith gets here, he will tremble and fall to his knees and that is exactly what will happen.
00:29:26What planet are you even living on? You're not just a beggar. You're a complete lunatic.
00:29:33What planet are you?
00:29:38Put your neck at the tone, and 30% on the ground.
00:29:42So how you think there's anything to know if you're 고양端 is mortality?
00:29:47Sir, what's the matter?
00:30:07On your knees.
00:30:09What, sir?
00:30:09She's just somebody.
00:30:10I said on your knees!
00:30:17Are you all deaf?
00:30:19Get on your knees!
00:30:22Mr. Smith, what's this all about?
00:30:24Are you not feeling well?
00:30:26What did this brain-dead bitch do to him?
00:30:29Get him away before whatever's riding in her head spreads!
00:30:33Mr. Smith, what are you doing?
00:30:37I'm warning you.
00:30:38Do not disrespect this woman.
00:30:41She is.
00:30:43She is.
00:30:44She is nothing but a pathetic waste of space.
00:30:47She can't even stand on her own two feet.
00:30:50Her brain is riding away, and she doesn't have a penny to her name.
00:30:54Are you seriously going to defend this old witch?
00:31:01Looks like you remember me now, John.
00:31:04Why don't you tell everyone else who I am?
00:31:06Go ahead.
00:31:09Address him as Mr. Smith, you disrespectful old hag.
00:31:14Mr. Smith, we never wanted her as her mother.
00:31:18We've already cut ties with this woman.
00:31:20We don't support her behavior at all.
00:31:23Please, don't punish us for her actions.
00:31:27I understand you're upset, Mr. Smith.
00:31:29Let me remove this worthless woman.
00:31:31Ah!
00:31:36Leave!
00:31:37All of you!
00:31:39Mr. Smith, why are you protecting her?
00:31:42She's beneath you.
00:31:43Mr. Smith, please.
00:31:45We're family.
00:31:46Family?
00:31:47You're just distant relatives.
00:31:50The only reason I maintain contact with you is because someone told me to never forget where I came from.
00:31:55And that someone was her.
00:31:59She helped me build Sterling Core for nothing.
00:32:02John, return my daughter to me, and we'll discuss your actions later.
00:32:14Yes, Miss Miller.
00:32:14No one will ever hurt you again, okay?
00:32:33Who the hell are you?
00:32:34On behalf of Sterling Core, I formally welcome you back to Phoenix Group.
00:32:47Welcome back, boss.
00:32:48She's the CEO of Phoenix Group?
00:32:58Phoenix Group CEO.
00:33:01Ha, that's impossible.
00:33:03There must be some mistake.
00:33:04This old hack doesn't even have money.
00:33:06Just look at her.
00:33:07Yeah, the richest CEO in the country wearing bargain bin clothes, working at an orphanage, and living in this dump.
00:33:14Please.
00:33:15Do you even hear yourself?
00:33:17If it wasn't for Miss Miller living a modest life, you'd still be orphans, you ungrateful brats.
00:33:22And you, you must be the adoptive daughter who saved Miss Miller.
00:33:29Don't be afraid.
00:33:31You're Miss Miller's daughter, and the only one who protected her.
00:33:33And now, Sterling Core will protect you.
00:33:36If anyone tries to harm you, they'll pay the price.
00:33:40I just want to stay with my mom and take care of her.
00:33:43Please, don't let them force me to marry this man.
00:33:47My sweet girl.
00:33:54No way!
00:33:55My parents paid good money for you, so you belong to me now.
00:33:57Please, please!
00:33:58Your mother can run into nursing home for all I care.
00:34:00Nobody touches my daughter.
00:34:02John, break his wrist!
00:34:06John, break his wrist!
00:34:08Help!
00:34:13Mr. Smith, please don't do this.
00:34:15Please, he's our only son.
00:34:16Please, he's our only God's.
00:34:18You love your son like I love my daughter.
00:34:22And yet, you let him terrorize Grace, and you didn't say anything.
00:34:27And now, you want to apologize?
00:34:30It's too late.
00:34:31But your daughter is fine.
00:34:33Do you really have to do this?
00:34:35If I let this go today, then you'll keep terrorizing those weaker than you, like my daughter.
00:34:41So today, there will be a lesson for not only your son, but for everyone else.
00:34:45Please, mark my words.
00:34:47Who do you think you are, barking at my parents and brother?
00:34:52Move or I'll end you all!
00:34:54Britney, my sweet daughter.
00:34:59Thank God you're here.
00:35:00Don't worry, Dad.
00:35:02I've got this under control.
00:35:04Did you forget?
00:35:05My boyfriend is Alexander Miller's assistant.
00:35:10So what, young lady?
00:35:12And this is Alexander's mother, Miss Miller, CEO of Phoenix Group.
00:35:17She is not the CEO of Phoenix Group.
00:35:20She's a fraud!
00:35:21What are you talking about?
00:35:26Just because you're dating Alexander's lap dog doesn't mean you can run your mouth and spread lies.
00:35:30Lies?
00:35:31I've seen the Phoenix Group CEO with my own two eyes.
00:35:35She got me a present for my birthday.
00:35:37Sean, what's wrong?
00:35:47Today's my girlfriend's birthday, and she wants me to invite Miss Mary Miller to her party.
00:35:53What?
00:35:54She's so secluded, even her own son can't see her whenever he wants.
00:35:58How do you expect her to agree to meet your girlfriend?
00:36:01Wait, what if you pretend to be her?
00:36:07Nobody even knows what she looks like outside of the board anyway.
00:36:11Pretend to be CEO for my girlfriend's birthday party,
00:36:15and I'll get working on that promotion that you've been wanting for years.
00:36:21Oh, yeah?
00:36:23Hmm, fine.
00:36:25I'll do it.
00:36:26Young lady, I don't know who your family is,
00:36:31but you better believe that I could destroy them with one phone call.
00:36:36Everyone here sees that you're just broke and delusional.
00:36:40Cut the act, you widowed hag!
00:36:45Don't say I didn't warn you.
00:36:47I'm going to have my boyfriend expose you for the fraud you really are.
00:36:51Britney, I'm on my way.
00:37:05My mother's coming back to the Phoenix group today,
00:37:06so I want you guys to get her something absolutely spectacular, okay?
00:37:10It's time to show this city who's really been behind our success.
00:37:14Also, I want you to get something for that girl.
00:37:16The one that she adopted, that's been taking care of her.
00:37:19She's my sister now, so get her something grand as well.
00:37:21Boss, is everything okay?
00:37:27I need you to do something for me.
00:37:28It's about Britney.
00:37:29Someone causing your girlfriend trouble?
00:37:32Don't worry, I'll handle it.
00:37:34I'll make them beg for mercy for what they've done.
00:37:36Take her right here.
00:37:38Gotta handle something for Sean.
00:37:40Yes, sir.
00:37:45Hear that?
00:37:46My daughter's boyfriend is Alexander Miller's assistant.
00:37:49He's one of Phoenix group's rising stars.
00:37:52You picked the wrong people to mess with.
00:37:55You're done for.
00:37:56Thank God we cut ties with you, you crazy old witch.
00:37:59You almost gave me a heart attack, you old hag.
00:38:02Turns out you were a fraud all along.
00:38:04You.
00:38:04Who would have thought our daughter would end up dating Alexander's right-hand man?
00:38:12When her boyfriend gets here, we're going to strip you and your daughter naked and throw you into the streets.
00:38:18Let everyone see how we treat liars like you.
00:38:21I'm afraid you're in for quite a disappointment.
00:38:24Still acting tough?
00:38:26You really are shameless.
00:38:28Mom.
00:38:30John, handle this right now.
00:38:32She's scaring my daughter.
00:38:34Yes, Miss Miller.
00:38:35Back off, John!
00:38:48You're just some low-level manager.
00:38:51My boyfriend will destroy your career if you touch me!
00:38:53Did you just hit me?
00:39:00Not bad for an old hag.
00:39:02I get it now, John.
00:39:04You're siding with this hag because she crawled into your bed.
00:39:07You disgusting little...
00:39:09Oh, did I hurt a nerve?
00:39:11Just wait until my boyfriend gets here.
00:39:14I'm going to tell him that you hit me for this old slut.
00:39:17You're dead!
00:39:18But you really think your boyfriend is that important to me?
00:39:25He's nothing.
00:39:27But he doesn't even deserve to clean the dirt off my shoes.
00:39:31Nobody insults Mr. Sean Parker and lives to talk about it!
00:39:36Mike?
00:39:37Why are you alone?
00:39:38Where's Sean?
00:39:39Relax, Miss.
00:39:40Sean and Miss Miller have more important matters than dealing with trash.
00:39:44So, who's been causing trouble for my boss's girlfriend?
00:39:48It was this piece of garbage right here.
00:39:51She said that Mr. Sean Parker didn't deserve to clean the dirt off her shoes.
00:39:55And she's pretending to be the CEO of Phoenix Group, Miss Miller!
00:40:01Miss Miller?
00:40:06Miss Miller, old hag.
00:40:09You've got some nerve pretending to be Miss Miller.
00:40:12Open your eyes.
00:40:13She is Miss Miller.
00:40:15Right!
00:40:16And I'm the Queen of England.
00:40:18Tell you what.
00:40:20If she's really the CEO, I'll tattoo fool on my forehead.
00:40:26Nice performance, John.
00:40:28Good thing I met the real CEO at Brittany's birthday party, or I might have fallen for your little act.
00:40:32I don't know who you think you met, but that was not the CEO.
00:40:36If my mom really lied, it was to protect me from being forced to marry the mayor's son.
00:40:42But if she isn't the CEO of Phoenix Group, then I apologize.
00:40:48Just please, don't hurt my mother.
00:40:50Well, what do we have here?
00:40:54Quite the pretty little thing.
00:40:55Since you're such a good daughter, I'll let this lie.
00:41:00Under one condition.
00:41:05Marry the mayor's son.
00:41:06And I'll forgive your mother's lies.
00:41:12Grace, don't listen to this fool.
00:41:16Mom.
00:41:16I never thought that I would have a real family.
00:41:22And then you adopted me.
00:41:25You gave me everything.
00:41:27Love, protection, a life.
00:41:31I owe you everything.
00:41:34So if...
00:41:36So if marrying the mayor's son will protect you...
00:41:41Then I'll do it.
00:41:48Back off, while you still can.
00:41:51If you hurt Grace or cross Miss Miller, you'll pay the price.
00:41:54Look at you, John.
00:41:55Completely entangled in this fraud spell.
00:41:58You know what's gonna happen today, John?
00:42:00Huh?
00:42:00The real Miss Miller is returning to Phoenix Group.
00:42:04When Alexander finds out you're helping some imposter,
00:42:09you're finished.
00:42:11Miss Miller's returning to Phoenix Group today?
00:42:14With your boyfriend being Mr. Miller's assistant,
00:42:17surely you'll meet Miss Miller.
00:42:19Oh, please, let me come with you.
00:42:22I'd do anything to see Miss Miller.
00:42:26Miss Miller is a very private person.
00:42:28Most employees haven't even seen her.
00:42:31Well, I guess I could let you see her from a distance.
00:42:36Now then, time to deal with our little problem.
00:42:42Can't have these frauds causing trouble on such an important day.
00:42:48You fool!
00:42:49This woman is the real CEO of Phoenix Group.
00:42:52Mr. Miller sent me her photo.
00:42:54It's right here.
00:42:55It's right here.
00:43:03A photo?
00:43:04That can't prove anything.
00:43:05Anyone could fake that using AI.
00:43:07With AI these days, you can make any photo you want.
00:43:11You can't fool us.
00:43:12Look at her.
00:43:13She's just a pathetic nothing.
00:43:16Faking photos to play CEO?
00:43:18God, I've never seen anyone so desperate.
00:43:21What happened to all that talk about honesty and respect as we grew up, mom?
00:43:26Or does that not apply to an old hag like you?
00:43:29You are good looking.
00:43:31For your age.
00:43:33No wonder you've got John wrapped around your finger, you witch.
00:43:37Shut your damn mouth.
00:43:39Stay away from her, you monster.
00:43:40Good thing we've got some time on our hands anyway.
00:43:47And broke?
00:43:48Single moms are my favorite kind of...
00:43:51A feisty one, huh?
00:43:56Just the way I like it.
00:43:58You sure this is the right location?
00:44:14The coordinates led us here, sir.
00:44:15The mayor will know where she is.
00:44:17This is perfect.
00:44:19The mayor is about to see his future son-in-law working right beside the great Alexander Miller.
00:44:24This couldn't be better.
00:44:25Well, then what are we waiting for?
00:44:26Let's go find the mayor.
00:44:28Yes, sir.
00:44:34Um, this is private property, you can't show...
00:44:37That is Alexander Miller of the Phoenix Group that you're speaking to.
00:44:42Where is the mayor?
00:44:43I need him to find my mother.
00:44:46Alexander Miller?
00:44:47It is an honor to meet you.
00:44:50We did not expect you to show up at this wedding celebration.
00:44:53Wait a second.
00:44:54The wedding?
00:44:55Yes, the mayor's son's getting married.
00:44:58We didn't realize someone with your VIP status would be here.
00:45:01I didn't realize the mayor had such great connections.
00:45:04Right?
00:45:05Oh, that old woman will now regret not marrying her daughter into the mayor's family.
00:45:11Can you believe that?
00:45:12That dead broke vegetable?
00:45:14She acts all high and mighty.
00:45:16But you know what?
00:45:17That girl's not even really her daughter.
00:45:19She's adopted.
00:45:21That woman.
00:45:22Is she a single mother to three orphans?
00:45:26That's her, all right.
00:45:27But don't worry, sir, okay?
00:45:29The mayor has this town under control.
00:45:31And you know what?
00:45:32He's gonna teach that old hat.
00:45:34Oh!
00:45:35Oh!
00:45:36What did you just call her?
00:45:38That woman you just insulted is my mother.
00:45:42The CEO of the Phoenix Group.
00:45:45CEO of the Phoenix Group?
00:45:47That can't be.
00:45:50Pick that piece of shit up and have him take us to my mother.
00:45:52Yes, sir.
00:45:53You will regret every word that you said about the Miller family.
00:46:01Once Miss Miller comes back, her daughter Grace will be a part of the Phoenix family.
00:46:07If you think the mayor's son can marry some of her stature, you're delusional.
00:46:12I want to meet this mayor myself.
00:46:15The audacity to treat Miss Miller and her daughter like this?
00:46:18Oh, I need to warn the mayor.
00:46:25Just the way I like it.
00:46:29How dare you talk to Miss Miller like that?
00:46:32Ah!
00:46:36Joe, is she wants a real man now, John?
00:46:39By the time I'm done with her, she won't be moving that wheelchair anymore.
00:46:42Your problem is with me.
00:46:44Sterling Corp protects her on and we will die defending our boss.
00:46:48You must be giving John something real special.
00:46:54Why else would he risk everything with Phoenix Group to back up your pathetic lives?
00:46:58You won't live to see another day.
00:47:01Then I better make the most of now.
00:47:06Please, stop!
00:47:08Everyone, stop!
00:47:11What is it?
00:47:12Can't you see we're busy?
00:47:14That woman, you're threatening, she...
00:47:16Shit!
00:47:18That woman, you're threatening, she...
00:47:20She's nothing but an old widow.
00:47:24This is our town.
00:47:26We know what we're doing.
00:47:27Right.
00:47:27Especially with Alexander's people on our side.
00:47:31The sky could fall right now.
00:47:32I'm still gonna have my fun with you.
00:47:34Yeah?
00:47:35Well, when it falls, you'll be the first one to crumble.
00:47:40This is Phoenix Group's turf.
00:47:42I'm Sean Parker's right-hand man.
00:47:44Your precious boss should be on your knees before me.
00:47:47Just because you're some assistant's lap dog, it doesn't mean you're untouchable.
00:47:52Why don't you just make the call?
00:47:54Well, then we'll see how untouchable you really are.
00:47:58What's wrong?
00:48:00Are you getting nervous?
00:48:01Who could she possibly call?
00:48:03It's not like she has Alexander on speed dial.
00:48:08Let her make the call.
00:48:09I want to see who this pathetic widow runs to for help.
00:48:14Go ahead.
00:48:15Show us these powerful connections of yours.
00:48:18Stop!
00:48:19Don't let her make the call!
00:48:22Stop!
00:48:23Don't let her make the call!
00:48:25Shut your worthless mouth!
00:48:28You have no right to speak here!
00:48:30Afraid of a little phone call?
00:48:32That's Mike from Phoenix Group.
00:48:34No one in this city dares cross it.
00:48:38But, but, but she...
00:48:39But, but, but...
00:48:41Can't even form a sentence?
00:48:43What, do you think this nobody's gonna call the Alexander Miller?
00:48:47Not another word.
00:48:48You're wasting our time.
00:48:50I need to get ready to meet the real Miss Miller later when she returns to the company.
00:48:54Brittany's right.
00:48:55We're about to welcome back the great Miss Miller.
00:48:58Nothing's changing that.
00:49:00Don't say I didn't give you a chance.
00:49:02Make your call, you fraud.
00:49:14Who's this?
00:49:16Mother?
00:49:22I can't believe they'd do this.
00:49:24Look, Mom, I got this.
00:49:26Don't worry, don't worry.
00:49:27I'm gonna handle this, okay?
00:49:27I know exactly what to do.
00:49:32So, you're this old hag's emergency contact.
00:49:35Guess what?
00:49:36You're screwed.
00:49:37Because my boyfriend is Sean Parker.
00:49:40Mr. Miller's right-hand man.
00:49:43Sean is your boyfriend, huh?
00:49:44Are you deaf or dumb?
00:49:46And how dare you refer to Sean by his first name?
00:49:49He is Alexander Miller's right-hand man.
00:49:52So watch yourself.
00:49:53Brittany, you're speaking to Alexander Miller himself.
00:49:56Well, you're gonna find out soon enough.
00:49:58My boyfriend is Alexander Miller's man.
00:50:01He is going to destroy you.
00:50:04What?
00:50:05You wanna talk to Mike Hanson?
00:50:11How does your contact know my name?
00:50:14Talk to him.
00:50:15I know.
00:50:15What happened, Mike?
00:50:17You scared to answer the phone?
00:50:18Shut up!
00:50:19Sean has my back.
00:50:20Why would I be scared of some loser this hag called?
00:50:25Who are you?
00:50:26How the hell do you know my name?
00:50:34The signals are always bad here.
00:50:36We need to get to my mother in five minutes.
00:50:37Let's go.
00:50:37Move.
00:50:38Come on.
00:50:39Yes, sir.
00:50:39Yes, sir.
00:50:40Yes, sir.
00:50:43You really had me fooled for a second there.
00:50:45I thought your friend was someone important.
00:50:48Turns out he's just a coward.
00:50:49Couldn't even speak when he heard my voice.
00:50:51Couldn't say a word.
00:50:53Pathetic.
00:50:54Mike scared him speechless.
00:50:56Not so tough now, are you?
00:50:59You were, uh, clever.
00:51:02I'll give you that.
00:51:05I don't know how you managed to tell that friend of yours my name, but, uh,
00:51:09who cares?
00:51:11He's a spineless coward who can't even talk to me, let alone touch me.
00:51:16Stay away from her.
00:51:19Oh!
00:51:21Oh!
00:51:30Ah!
00:51:31Ah!
00:51:33That's right!
00:51:34Keep your laissez!
00:51:35Let's see!
00:51:48Filthy slut!
00:51:50You make me sick!
00:51:52It came from over there! Let's go!
00:52:09The mayor's family is finished.
00:52:11Jane, should have been a kill shot.
00:52:25You just burnt your last bridge. You will regret this.
00:52:30I'm just punishing a couple troublemakers. Is that a crime?
00:52:34Now. It's just you and me.
00:52:39Don't worry. I can treat you better than John ever could.
00:52:56Do you have another nightmare?
00:52:58Yeah.
00:53:00I'm sorry, sweetheart.
00:53:02You know I will always be here to protect you, right?
00:53:08I'm so sorry. You have to go through that.
00:53:12Mom.
00:53:14This time, I'll protect you.
00:53:23Mom.
00:53:25It's your thought that we're in this mess.
00:53:27Just marry my brother like a good little girl and we'll let your mother go!
00:53:32Yeah, we offered you a better life and this is how you repay us.
00:53:37Some people just need their gratitude beaten into them.
00:53:41Please, I'm begging you.
00:53:43Don't hurt my mom.
00:53:44Let her go and I'll marry Gregory, I swear.
00:53:48Well, that's better.
00:53:51Ew.
00:53:52You've had your fun. Wrap it up.
00:54:04Such a shame, hmm?
00:54:06I was just getting started.
00:54:08When I'm done with you, you're gonna regret you were ever born.
00:54:12Still making threats?
00:54:14An old hag like you should be grateful I even want to touch you.
00:54:17If Brittany hadn't interrupted,
00:54:22we'd be having some real fun right now.
00:54:25Having fun with who?
00:54:26One with who?
00:54:44Who is he?
00:54:46That's some entrance.
00:54:47Look at those clothes.
00:54:48Must be connected to the mayor.
00:54:49Oh, my sweetheart.
00:54:52Oh, my sweetheart.
00:55:04Mom.
00:55:06Is...
00:55:07Is that really Miss Miller?
00:55:09Brett quit the entourage, baby.
00:55:11All this back up just your little old knee?
00:55:14Brittany, you don't understand.
00:55:16This is, um...
00:55:17Alexander Miller.
00:55:18I-I didn't think you'd come here yourself.
00:55:20Alexander who?
00:55:22Alexander Miller?
00:55:24That's Alexander Miller?
00:55:26Miss Miller's son?
00:55:32Shit.
00:55:33That's Alexander Miller?
00:55:35He's even dreamier in person.
00:55:38Sir, that woman is-is delusional.
00:55:41She claims she's your mother, the CEO of Phoenix Group.
00:55:44Look, sir, it's my son's wedding today.
00:55:48We would be honored if you could attend the reception.
00:55:51After you meet with the real Miss Miller.
00:55:54It's an honor to meet you, sir.
00:55:56I'm Sean's girlfriend, the mayor's daughter.
00:55:59You can call me Brittany.
00:56:01If you need anything in this town, my family's at your service.
00:56:06Brittany, shut up.
00:56:08What?
00:56:09It's not every day you meet THE Alexander Miller.
00:56:12Also think about it.
00:56:14If Miss Miller comes to my brother's wedding party too,
00:56:17we'll be the talk of the town.
00:56:19If you want to invite my mother to your party,
00:56:22then why don't you ask her yourself?
00:56:24Oh, what a brilliant idea!
00:56:26If you would be so kind as to lead us to her.
00:56:28There's no need for that.
00:56:30My mother is here right now.
00:56:32Where is she?
00:56:33Sir, are you playing some kind of trick on us?
00:56:46I don't see Miss Miller anywhere.
00:56:48I would certainly recognize her if she was in my town.
00:56:51Well, of course he would.
00:56:53Nothing happens here without the mayor knowing about it.
00:56:55Are you suggesting I wouldn't recognize my own mother?
00:56:59If what you're saying is true, when did she come to our town?
00:57:06Fifteen years ago.
00:57:08My mother came here to live in seclusion after she stepped down as the Phoenix CEO.
00:57:13Fifteen years ago?
00:57:16That's not possible.
00:57:17I'm so sorry it took so long, mother.
00:57:29Come here, my son.
00:57:32You've gotten so old.
00:57:36I missed you.
00:57:38You're a beautiful man now.
00:57:48Phoenix Group CEO?
00:57:50Impossible.
00:57:56She's really Miss Miller?
00:57:59Phoenix Group CEO?
00:58:01There has to be some mistake.
00:58:03She's nothing but a filthy woman who works for the orphanage.
00:58:07That fucker could not possibly be the real Miss Miller.
00:58:10Miss Miller, please excuse my girlfriend's disgraceful behavior.
00:58:20I take full responsibility.
00:58:22Punish me as you see fit.
00:58:24Our adoptive mother is the famous Miss Miller?
00:58:30What have we done?
00:58:34A moment, mother.
00:58:36Are you Grace?
00:58:40Take care, mother.
00:58:43Let me handle this.
00:58:47Now it's time for you all to explain yourselves.
00:58:57This is all a misunderstanding.
00:59:03Apologize to my mother!
00:59:05Now!
00:59:06Miss Miller, I beg of you!
00:59:11I'm sorry!
00:59:12I'm so, so sorry!
00:59:14You're only apologizing now because you know who I am.
00:59:17As I said, you would regret being born.
00:59:21Guards, get him out of my sight.
00:59:24Make sure I never see his face in the city again.
00:59:26Sean, if that's the real Miss Miller, then who did you invite to my birthday dinner?
00:59:34Tell her.
00:59:36Tell her she's never really met me.
00:59:38Tell her that I'm the real CEO of Phoenix Group.
00:59:40You thought you actually deserved to see the real Miss Miller?
00:59:52It was just some employee that I paid to pretend.
00:59:55I didn't think you'd be stupid enough to not notice.
00:59:58And now, look at the trouble you've caused.
00:59:59Miss Miller, this worthless girl has caused nothing but trouble.
01:00:06I'll kill her myself if you'll forgive me.
01:00:09Someone like you doesn't even deserve to work at the Phoenix Group.
01:00:14Remove him!
01:00:15Miss Miller, we were wrong.
01:00:24We'll never do anything like this again.
01:00:27Please, have mercy.
01:00:29Forgive us, just this once.
01:00:32You all tortured people for years.
01:00:35If I was to forgive you, you would go on and continue to hurt innocent people.
01:00:41Take them away.
01:00:42Deal with them accordingly.
01:00:44Make them away!
01:00:46Wait, what? Look!
01:00:47No!
01:00:48Ah!
01:00:54Where do you think you're going?
01:00:57I am not done with you two.
01:01:01What are you planning on doing with these two?
01:01:04You two wanted this house so badly.
01:01:07Burn it down!
01:01:09You don't deserve it.
01:01:10You heard my mother.
01:01:11Burn it down.
01:01:12Now!
01:01:13Mother!
01:01:41Mother!
01:01:43Mother, please!
01:01:44For your children!
01:01:45For your children!
01:01:46All these years in seclusion, I gave you everything, and yet all you wanted was for me to die?
01:02:04You've really shown your true colors.
01:02:07And you know what?
01:02:08Now you never have to call me mother again.
01:02:09Now you never have to call me mother again.
01:02:17And you?
01:02:18You're not off the hook.
01:02:19I'll deal with you later.
01:02:21You never have to call me mother.
01:02:22Yes, you never have to call me mother.
01:02:23Yes, Miss Mother.
01:02:24Yes, Miss Mother.
01:02:30My dear.
01:02:31Somebody very special I want to introduce you to.
01:02:34Grace.
01:02:35This is my son, Alexander.
01:02:37It's an honor to meet you, sir.
01:02:39Please.
01:02:40Please.
01:02:41You're my sister now.
01:02:42There's no need for formalities.
01:02:43My mother, I've arranged a welcome banquet for you at the Cloud Peak restaurant.
01:02:47Well, what better occasion to introduce my daughter to the whole world.
01:02:54The future heiress of the Phoenix Group.
01:03:03It's a historical day for the Phoenix Group.
01:03:06The city must know.
01:03:07Our CEO is back.
01:03:10I'll send out the invitations.
01:03:18Is that your boyfriend?
01:03:19The one that was studying abroad?
01:03:21Yes.
01:03:23He promised me when he came back home that he would propose to me.
01:03:27I'm expecting him to pop the question any time now.
01:03:31That's wonderful.
01:03:33Take the call.
01:03:34But why don't you also invite him to the banquet tonight, okay?
01:03:36Okay.
01:03:40Hi.
01:03:43Black Peak restaurant.
01:03:44Yeah, I can meet you there.
01:03:47There's, um, actually something important I need to tell you.
01:04:17Who's that beautiful young woman?
01:04:26She must be someone important to be at Phoenix Group's banquet tonight.
01:04:34Nathan!
01:04:35Victoria?
01:04:44Long time no see, bestie.
01:04:50Well, what's going on here?
01:04:53What does it look like?
01:04:56Best friend and I are together now.
01:04:57But you promised me you'd give me a ring when you came back.
01:05:05Oh, he did get a ring.
01:05:07Just not for you, loser.
01:05:12Shocked to see our son engage with someone worthy of him.
01:05:16A proper match.
01:05:18At last.
01:05:19Unlike you.
01:05:20And your useless poor mother, who can't possibly help him in his career.
01:05:25That's right.
01:05:27My mother's a secretary at Phoenix Group.
01:05:29And she got Nathan the regional manager position at the company.
01:05:33Things change when you have the right connections.
01:05:36Isn't that right, sweetie?
01:05:40So that's why you chose my best friend over me?
01:05:42How could you both do this to me?
01:05:45Shut your mouth.
01:05:49Oh, honey.
01:05:51Save yourself the humiliation and leave.
01:05:54You don't belong here.
01:06:05Everything's set.
01:06:07The city's most powerful leader here to meet Grace.
01:06:12Grace deserves this moment.
01:06:26After tonight, everyone will know that she's the heiress of the Phoenix Group.
01:06:37Wait, what?
01:06:38Someone's causing trouble to my sister.
01:06:42Did you honestly think you could compete with me?
01:06:46You're just the daughter of some poor, crazy woman who can't even walk.
01:06:52And that dress.
01:06:54What'd you do?
01:06:55Steal it?
01:06:56Trash like you could never afford a dress like that.
01:06:59You probably borrowed it to pretend she's not poor.
01:07:03Just like her mother, pretending to be someone she's not.
01:07:06Let me return it to whatever store you stole it from.
01:07:12Don't worry, sweetheart.
01:07:13Your mother will always protect you now, okay?
01:07:14Don't worry, sweetheart.
01:07:15Your mother will always protect you now, okay?
01:07:18Don't worry, sweetheart.
01:07:19Your mother will always protect you now, okay?
