00:03:01Go 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.
00:03:39Ms. Miller raised her son alone to build Phoenix Group.
00:03:42Now, 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.
00:03:59Sir, we can't find your mother. She isn't answering our calls.
00:04:05What? My mother is missing?
00:04:09I want to sell my blood. Please.
00:04:13I have an extremely rare blood type. Type AB negative.
00:04:17You need it, and I need money for my mother's surgery.
00:04:21Please.
00:04:21Please.
00:04:29We 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.
00:04:52Just keep.
00:04:53Keep going.
00:04:53Miss.
00:04:55Miss.
00:04:57Miss.
00:04:58Miss.
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.
00:05:22How'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.
00:06:34Something'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.
00:06:41One day at work here will cover three days of mom's medication.
00:07:01Next.
00:07:02Sir, I'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, I 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.
00:07:48All 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?
00:08:38You 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?
00:09:02You'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.
00:09:16Go 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, trying so hard and your mommy can't even see.
00:09:42If you don't want to take care of Mom, that's fine.
00:09:44I'll do it myself.
00:09:46But 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?
00:09:59Mom?
00:09:59Your finger's moving.
00:10:03Would you look at that?
00:10:05She'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.
00:10:17Ah!
00:10:19Ah!
00:10:20Ah!
00:10:20Ah!
00:10:20You stupid bitch.
00:10:34I'm tired of repeating myself, Mom is dying, dead people don't need a house.
00:10:39You know, William and I just want the best for you, little sis.
00:10:45Say, you and the mayor's son are the same age, right?
00:10:49Mayor's daughter-in-law sounds awfully nice.
00:10:51What?
00:10:53The mayor's daughter-in-law?
00:10:55After you and the mayor's son tie the knot, we'll send that to a nursing home far, far away.
00:11:07She takes up too much space here.
00:11:09So there's the bride for my son.
00:11:19Well, 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.
00:11:34No, no, don't touch me!
00:11:46No, no, don't touch me!
00:11:49You 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.
00:12:28I 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!
00:12:54Mom!
00:12:59No one sells my daughter.
00:13:25Get 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.
00:13:51Selling 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!
00:14:24Just 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.
00:14:53Your mother will make these ingrants pay for what they did to you.
00:14:57This...
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.
00:15:17Well, 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 you our mother?
00:15:37Embarrassing?
00:15:39When we were orphans, nobody wanted us.
00:15:42Mom gave us a home.
00:15:43She saved us.
00:15:44Saved us?
00:15:45I 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.
00:15:59You 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.
00:16:07You're not getting anything from me.
00:16:10Not a single cent.
00:16:12Grace, do you have my phone?
00:16:18Oh, Grace, this is your mom's phone.
00:16:21You can keep it for now.
00:16:22Doctor, this phone is really nice.
00:16:25Are you sure it belongs to my mom?
00:16:26We took it from her pocket right before the surgery.
00:16:28Miss Miller.
00:16:45Alexander.
00:16:47It's me.
00:16:47My 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.
00:17:08Sir, 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 crossing her.
00:17:19Yes, sir.
00:17:20I'm coming, mother.
00:17:22Wait, 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 wedding.
00:18:01He should be here at any moment.
00:18:02Mr. 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.
00:18:27Mark 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 Miss 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 Miss 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.
00:19:37Enough.
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.
00:19:45Lay a hand on my daughter one more time, and I'll make sure you don't use that hand again.
00:20:00What'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.
00:20:09Oh, how amusing.
00:20:14You think that you can, you can buy me off.
00:20:17I would love to see you try.
00:20:20Hmm.
00:20:24Word 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.
00:20:34It'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.
00:21:24Your son is a worthless parasite that vultures would refuse to eat.
00:21:34How dare you speak that way about my son?
00:21:37I 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.
00:22:04But 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, as a matter of fact.
00:22:24My 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, no, stay back, please.
00:22:35You will all grunt this.
00:22:39No, stay back, please.
00:22:49Holy 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.
00:22:57What the hell?
00:23:02No, no, no, help.
00:23:03Go where?
00:23:04No.
00:23:04I could assure you the consequences for spreading unverified rumors in 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 who rejected the mayor's son.
00:23:20You'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.
00:23:33Looks like I'll have to take care of this myself.
00:23:37Don't let go of me.
00:23:38Go!
00:23:39Stop!
00:23:41Ah!
00:23:42Stop!
00:23:46Hit her again, mother!
00:23:48We offer you everything, and you choose to stay in this filth?
00:23:52Fine.
00:23:52Stay here and rot!
00:23:55My mother's love means everything to me.
00:23:57I'd rather stay in poverty by her side than live in a cage without her.
00:24:03Too bad that's not your decision to make.
00:24:08Too 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.
00:24:29And Mr. Smith, they even had the audacity to threaten you.
00:24:34Said you would tremble before him.
00:24:35What?
00:24:36Someone dare threaten the John Smith?
00:24:39The 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.
00:24:55Hello, John.
00:24:56Why 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?
00:25:17Ms. Miller.
00:25:18Ms. Miller.
00:25:21Ms. Miller.
00:25:21I 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 before we're outside.
00:25:49Wait!
00:25:49Wait!
00:25:51You, you 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.
00:26:51It's a photo of Mrs. Miller.
00:26:54You mean Ms. 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.
00:27:11Mr. 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.
00:27:30See 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.
00:27:56Torment 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 defy me.
00:28:08You 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.
00:28:20No.
00:28:20How could I be so foolish?
00:28:49Miss Miller, the CEO of Phoenix Group, is right in front of my eyes.
00:28:55Mr. Smith is about to teach this old woman a lesson that she should never open her mouth.
00:29:00Just watch.
00:29:01Well, that'll teach you to disrespect someone like Mr. Smith.
00:29:04Fall on the ground and beg for forgiveness, you pathetic old hag.
00:29:07That's right.
00:29:08Go on and grovel before he destroys you.
00:29:12I have no need to apologize.
00:29:15I meant every word that I said.
00:29:18I said that when John Smith gets here, he will tremble and fall to his knees.
00:29:23And that is exactly what will happen.
00:29:26What planet are you even living on?
00:29:29You're not just a beggar.
00:29:31You're a complete lunatic.
00:29:33What planet are you even living on?

01:02:49to introduce my daughter to the whole world
01:02:53the future heiress of the phoenix group
01:02:56it's a historical day for the phoenix group
01:03:05the city must know
01:03:06our ceo is back
01:03:09i'll send out the invitations
01:03:11is that your boyfriend
01:03:19the one that was studying abroad
01:03:21yes
01:03:22he promised me when he came back home that he would propose to me

01:03:33but why don't you also invite him to the banquet tonight okay
01:03:36hi
01:03:41love peak restaurant
01:03:44yeah i can meet you there
01:03:45there's um actually something important
01:03:50i need to tell you
01:03:51oh
01:04:05oh
01:04:19Who's that beautiful young woman?
01:04:26She must be somewhat important to be at Phoenix Grubbs Banquet tonight.
01:04:34Nathan!
01:04:42Victoria?
01:04:43Long time no see, bestie.
01:04:49Well, what's going on here?
01:04:52What does it look like?
01:04:55Best friend and I are together now.
01:05:00But 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.
01:05:15A proper match.
01:05:17At last.
01:05:19Unlike you and your useless poor mother, who can't possibly help him in his career.
01:05:25That's right.
01:05:26My mother's a secretary at Phoenix Grubbs.
01:05:29And she got Nathan the regional manager position at the company.
01:05:32Things change when you have the right connections.
01:05:36Isn't that right, sweetie?
01:05:39So 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.
01:05:46Oh, honey.
01:05:51Save yourself the humiliation and leave.
01:05:54You don't belong here.
01:05:56Everything's set.
01:06:06City's most powerful leader here to meet Grace.
01:06:08Grace deserves this moment.
01:06:26After tonight, everyone will know that she's the heiress of the Phoenix Grubbs.
01:06:30Wait, what?
01:06:38Someone's causing trouble to my sister.
01:06:40Did you honestly think you could compete with me?
01:06:45You're just the daughter of some poor, crazy woman who can't even walk.
01:06:52And that dress.
01:06:53What'd you do?
01:06:54Steal it?
01:06:56Trash like you could never afford a dress like that.
01:06:58You probably borrowed it to pretend she's not poor.
01:07:02Just like her mother.
01:07:03Pretending to be someone she's not.
01:07:05Let me return it to whatever store you stole it from.
01:07:15Mom.
01:07:26Don't worry, sweetheart.
01:07:27Your mother will always protect you now, okay?
01:07:31Don't worry, sweetheart.
01:08:01Just as I suspect.
01:08:03He's not worthy of my daughter.
01:08:06Who are you to talk down to my son like that?
01:08:09Our son is the perfect match any girl could hope for.
01:08:13Oh, really?
01:08:25The three heirs of the largest corporation?
01:08:28Only Phoenix Grubbs is above them.
01:08:30What are they doing here?
01:08:35I'm James Bryant from the Sterling International Group.
01:08:38It's an honor to meet you, Grace.
01:08:40Grace, would you be honored to meet me at the dinner bar sometimes?
01:08:44I would love to take your travel with me when you can.
01:08:47My schedule is completely open.
01:08:49I, sweetheart.
01:08:51Don't be afraid.
01:08:52Don't be afraid.
01:08:54You really do deserve someone better.
01:08:57Grace, these are some of the finest young men in the city.
01:09:00And if none of them are to your desire,
01:09:03they're CEOs, they're entrepreneurs,
01:09:05and they're architects.
01:09:06You're going to meet you.
01:09:07What's going on?
01:09:10Why are all these rich men surrounding trash like you?
01:09:13You pathetic whore!
01:09:15Since when do you know people with real money?
01:09:18You manipulative little slut!
01:09:21What other secrets are you hiding?
01:09:22You think you're good enough to touch my sister?
01:09:30Did you just say sister?
01:09:34I thought you said she was an orphan.
01:09:37How can she be Alexander's sister?
01:09:42Alexander, surely there's been some sort of mistake.
01:09:45And who exactly do you think you are to question me?
01:09:48Alexander, you must be confused.
01:09:53Grace is nothing but a worthless orphan.
01:09:57It's true.
01:09:58She's nothing but trash.
01:10:02She's garbage.
01:10:04Nothing but garbage.
01:10:11Who?
01:10:12Who are you?
01:10:18Since you're so desperate to find out who my daughter is,
01:10:22you, you'll find out soon enough.
01:10:25And you!
01:10:27You will see exactly what you threw away.
01:10:31Ladies and gentlemen,
01:10:33please welcome the CEO of Phoenix Group,
01:10:37Ms. Miller!
01:10:38She, she, she, she can't be.
01:11:04The CEO of the Phoenix Group.
01:11:13Thank you all for coming this evening.
01:11:17During my absence,
01:11:18I worked the hardest,
01:11:20most low-paying job.
01:11:22I wanted to understand
01:11:24the struggle of the less fortunate.
01:11:26And what I ended up finding
01:11:27was something unexpected.
01:11:29I found a daughter
01:11:32with a heart of gold.
01:11:34Tonight, I'm proud to introduce
01:11:36the future heiress
01:11:38of the Phoenix Group.
01:11:40You worthless bitch.
01:11:42This is all your fault.
01:11:44You made me betray Grace.
01:11:47Don't blame me
01:11:48because you threw away someone important.
01:11:52Grace, please.
01:11:54I never cared about her.
01:11:55I always loved you.
01:11:57Just give me another chance.
01:11:58I'll prove myself worthy.
01:12:02Alexander.
01:12:08Your sister is both kind and wise.
01:12:11You need to trust
01:12:12that she'll do the right thing.
01:12:17Grace,
01:12:18Victoria deceived us all.
01:12:20Our son truly cares for you.
01:12:22Give him one more chance.
01:12:24Yes, Grace.
01:12:25You and Nathan have history.
01:12:27If you become our daughter-in-law,
01:12:29we'll treat you like our own.
01:12:31When you thought my mom and I were nothing,
01:12:34you treated us like dirt.
01:12:36And then you stood by
01:12:38and watched while Nathan betrayed me
01:12:40and humiliated my mother.
01:12:42Grace, I was wrong.
01:12:43I mean, even my parents see it now.
01:12:46It will never, ever happen again.
01:12:48I swear.
01:12:49You're only sorry because of who I am now.
01:12:51Yes, I once had feelings for you.
01:12:56But that's over.
01:12:58I never want to see you again.
01:13:05You think you're above me now?
01:13:09Pay me 100 million dollars
01:13:12or else?
01:13:13Everyone finds out
01:13:14how you really became
01:13:15the Phoenix Group Iris.
01:13:17By sleeping with your own
01:13:19adoptive brother.
01:13:25How dare you?
01:13:26That's a lie.
01:13:28Truth doesn't matter.
01:13:30My mother is a PR manager
01:13:31at Phoenix Group.
01:13:32She can forge all the proof we need.
01:13:35The press will eat it up.
01:13:36And I'll back every word of it.
01:13:39After all,
01:13:40I am regional manager
01:13:42of Phoenix Group.
01:13:43Just pay us the money.
01:13:45The Phoenix Group has the money.
01:13:46Or watch your reputation crumble.
01:13:50Is your mother's name Sarah Bell?
01:13:53She's the PR manager
01:13:54for Phoenix Group, right?
01:13:56So what old hag?
01:13:59Oh, well,
01:14:00she clearly didn't know
01:14:01how to teach you manners.
01:14:04So I guess she's fired.
01:14:07What?
01:14:08You can't do that!
01:14:10You and your two families
01:14:12can take your stuff
01:14:13and get out of the city.
01:14:15You're going to have
01:14:15a very hard time
01:14:16finding any work here.
01:14:21Please have mercy on my son.
01:14:23He's a foolish boy.
01:14:25He doesn't know what he's doing.
01:14:28Take them away.
01:14:30I do not want to see them
01:14:31in the city again.
01:14:35Yes, Ms. Miller.
01:14:35Wait.
01:14:39No, no, don't touch me!
01:14:41Rhys!
01:14:41No, wait!
01:14:41Rhys!
01:14:42I don't know!
01:14:43Rhys!
01:14:48Sweetheart,
01:14:49don't let his cruelty
01:14:51spoil this evening.
01:14:52This moment,
01:14:53it is yours.
01:14:55They can't hurt me anymore, Mom.
01:14:57Not with you by my side.
01:15:00My sweet daughter.
01:15:02You, uh,
01:15:03you stuck by me
01:15:04when I was sick
01:15:05and I almost died
01:15:07and you,
01:15:07you never gave up on me.
01:15:09And, and you gave me
01:15:10hope and strength.
01:15:13You gave me so much more.
01:15:15You gave me love
01:15:16when I thought
01:15:17I would never know
01:15:18what that would feel like.
01:15:19And you rescued me
01:15:20and you gave me a family.
01:15:21Tonight,
01:15:27I want everyone
01:15:28to see who you really are.
01:15:31You're kind,
01:15:32compassionate,
01:15:34brilliant,
01:15:35unbreakable.
01:15:36And I mean no one
01:15:38will ever
01:15:39speak down to you again.
01:15:41I don't need
01:15:42the world's approval, Mom.
01:15:43I have everything
01:15:44I could ever want
01:15:45right here.
01:15:47My sweet daughter.
01:15:48Ladies and gentlemen,
01:15:54I have a very important
01:15:55announcement to make.
