00:00:00I'm sorry. What? Are you sure?
00:00:05Mr. Whitmore, you're not going to believe me.
00:00:08The Thunder Circle just approved us of a direct investment.
00:00:12Wait, what?
00:00:13One hundred billion dollars.
00:00:16What?
00:00:17It's Lady Thunder's move.
00:00:19You know, the ghost chairwoman who runs the Thunder Circle?
00:00:21This is her first formal return back to the States, and we're her first target.
00:00:27You got it.
00:00:28A hundred billion dollars.
00:00:34That's better.
00:00:36She was right. It was a hundred billion.
00:00:40Parker. Find her.
00:00:42Find who?
00:00:43The girl from the Nairobi flight. Eleanor. I don't care what it takes. You find it.
00:00:49Understood, but what do you want with it?
00:00:53I'm going to marry her.
00:00:55Wait, what?
00:00:56I've never seen a challenging girl like her before.
00:01:02She's the one I want.
00:01:09You self-important bitch.
00:01:12Who the hell do you think you are?
00:01:13I get it, Eleanor.
00:01:15You're not upset about the breakup.
00:01:16You're just pissed about all the money you poured into me.
00:01:20Name your number.
00:01:21Once I get my first check from Whitmore, I'll pay you off.
00:01:24And then we're done.
00:01:26Is that what you think?
00:01:28That I'm here chasing the money that I gave you?
00:01:31How about a hundred grand?
00:01:37Two hundred?
00:01:39Daniel.
00:01:40Three. That's my final offer.
00:01:43Three hundred thousand dollars, sweetheart.
00:01:46Do you really think I'm here for the money?
00:01:49Just take the money and go.
00:01:52Daniel should have dropped you ages ago.
00:01:55God knows what you were actually doing overseas.
00:01:58And what do you mean by that?
00:02:00I mean, if you weren't selling yourself, how else could you possibly have afforded to fund Daniel's education?
00:02:07Do you actually expect me to believe you made that sort of money nannying children?
00:02:13What?
00:02:14How dare you?
00:02:16Eleanor.
00:02:17For the sake of our seven years together.
00:02:20Just take the money and leave.
00:02:24Daniel, how can you be so heartless?
00:02:28He's done with you.
00:02:30Get it through your thick head.
00:02:33She's not worth your time.
00:02:35Oh, where's Margaret?
00:02:36Didn't she say she was coming tonight?
00:02:38Yeah.
00:02:39Said she had to handle something first.
00:02:41She'll be here soon.
00:02:43Margaret?
00:02:45Margaret.
00:02:47Daughter of James West.
00:02:49Vice chair of the Whitmore group.
00:02:51Practically next in line.
00:02:53Next to the bathroom.
00:02:54Only someone like her is a match for my son.
00:02:59Rich.
00:03:00Properly pedigree.
00:03:02And you are just a misstep he never should have taken.
00:03:06Eleanor.
00:03:08Margaret's on her way.
00:03:10You should leave.
00:03:12Trust me.
00:03:13You don't want to be here when she walks in.
00:03:15Because the moment you see her, you'll be ashamed.
00:03:20So that's what this really is about.
00:03:24This isn't about the job.
00:03:26This is about her.
00:03:27This is about Margaret.
00:03:28At least with her, I can build something bigger.
00:03:31Really?
00:03:32Do you really think that you could build something bigger with her than with me?
00:03:36You?
00:03:38Please.
00:03:40So.
00:03:40Do you actually think you're better than me?
00:03:57Margaret, my dear.
00:03:59You're here.
00:04:01So.
00:04:02There must be Eleanor.
00:04:04Daniel's ex-girlfriend.
00:04:06I mean, you look exactly how I pictured.
00:04:10Bargain bin dress.
00:04:12Basic face.
00:04:13Still clinging to a man who left you behind like yesterday's trash.
00:04:17Don't mind her.
00:04:19She never deserved to be with Daniel.
00:04:21She's just a pathetic shadow tugging along.
00:04:24So you actually think you can compete with me?
00:04:27I'm Margaret West.
00:04:29Daughter of James West.
00:04:31Vice chair of the Whitmore Group.
00:04:33And you, you're not worth the dirt under my heel.
00:04:39You're right.
00:04:40Unlike you, I don't need to cling to Daddy's title to matter.
00:04:44Excuse me?
00:04:45You really think that you can talk back to me?
00:04:49Get out of here before I have security drag you out like the street rat you are.
00:04:55Exactly.
00:04:56This is a ceremony for elites, not fed.
00:05:00What the hell is going on?
00:05:03Oh, Margaret.
00:05:08Is everything all right?
00:05:09Why don't you ask her?
00:05:11Daniel dumped her.
00:05:13And now, she's crashing his party.
00:05:17Well, Dr. Prescott was handpicked by Mr. Whitmore herself.
00:05:20So, whatever's going on here, you are out of line.
00:05:25Exactly.
00:05:27Take a look around.
00:05:29These aren't just normal guests.
00:05:31This is Whitmore's A-team.
00:05:34CEOs, professionals, the people who run this city.
00:05:38And you are just a college dropout who thinks raising children in Africa is a career.
00:05:44I was running a charity.
00:05:47Oh, charity!
00:05:49Is that what we're calling unemployment now?
00:05:52Honey, just admit that you were broke and too proud to get a real job.
00:05:57Everyone, we all know why she's here.
00:06:00To chase my son hoping he drags her out of the gutter.
00:06:04So, she's a gold digger.
00:06:07How pathetic.
00:06:08Next time you want to play elite, try finishing college first.
00:06:14Hear that?
00:06:16This is reality.
00:06:17My son, a PhD.
00:06:19Future partner.
00:06:20And you are just the mud on his shoes.
00:06:29Now, crawl back into your cave where you came from.
00:06:34Your fairy tale is over.
00:06:46Eleanor.
00:06:48A woman can be broke.
00:06:51Or uneducated.
00:06:53But delusional.
00:06:56Now, that's where I draw the line.
00:06:58No matter what you tell yourself, I would never marry you.
00:07:03Funny, Daniel.
00:07:04You know what my biggest mistake was?
00:07:07Believing in you.
00:07:09Seven years.
00:07:10Seven years of working and wiring you money to pay for your tuition and rent.
00:07:15And this is how it ends.
00:07:16Don't twist this.
00:07:17I didn't force you to do any of that.
00:07:21I'm not twisting anything.
00:07:23I bankrolled your PhD.
00:07:26I helped get you into Whitmore.
00:07:28And the second you get upstairs, you drop me.
00:07:34I said I would pay you back.
00:07:35What more do you want?
00:07:37This isn't a transaction.
00:07:39That's not remorse, Daniel.
00:07:41That's cowardice wrapped up in a check.
00:07:43You ungrateful bitch!
00:07:55You ungrateful bitch!
00:07:55That's enough.
00:08:01I'm done with your tantrums.
00:08:05Get the fuck out of my life!
00:08:09God, look at her.
00:08:13I'm so pathetic.
00:08:15Somebody give me a towel?
00:08:17Her face is starting to make me sick.
00:08:20Lady, that's enough.
00:08:23Dr. Prescott's an asset to the Whitmore group.
00:08:25You?
00:08:26You're humiliating yourself.
00:08:28Get out!
00:08:29We found Eleanor, sir.
00:08:35Where?
00:08:36She's inside Whitmore HQ at the Prescott welcome event.
00:08:39But things are getting ugly.
00:08:41Dr. Prescott?
00:08:43Quick, get to HQ now.
00:08:51You see that?
00:08:53Everyone here knows you're humiliating yourself.
00:08:56Just leave, Eleanor.
00:08:58Before this gets worse for you.
00:09:00Worse?
00:09:02What, because I dared to stand where I don't belong?
00:09:06You want to be a circus act?
00:09:08Fine.
00:09:09But don't expect me to save you when all this blows up in your face.
00:09:13Save me?
00:09:14That's rich.
00:09:16You don't have the right.
00:09:18You never did.
00:09:19Final warning.
00:09:21Walk out on your own.
00:09:23I'll security drag you out.
00:09:26Go ahead.
00:09:26Call the guards.
00:09:29But just know that I walked in here because I have every right to be here.
00:09:32And no one has the right to push me out.
00:09:34Not even Sebastian.
00:09:38Faster.
00:09:39I don't care what it takes.
00:09:39Get me to her now.
00:09:41Yes, sir.
00:09:41Eleanor.
00:09:42Do you have any idea what the name Sebastian Whitmore means?
00:09:51Wow, you are even more idiotic than I thought.
00:09:54You just insulted the man who built this empire.
00:09:58Even my father wouldn't dare to challenge him.
00:10:00But you?
00:10:01You are so dead.
00:10:03In your world, Sebastian may be untouchable, but in mine, he's just a man.
00:10:09If I were you, I'd be more worried that you laid a hand on me.
00:10:14Sebastian might not be okay with that.
00:10:17God, you must really have a death wish.
00:10:19Eleanor, forget it. You're upset about the breakup, but now you're spiraling.
00:10:28Disrespecting Mr. Whitmore like that.
00:10:30You know, I was actually going to offer you a job as a janitor here, but after this, I don't even think you're worth that.
00:10:38You were going to recommend me for a janitor position?
00:10:41Do you know how competitive it is to work here?
00:10:45Even our security guards have degrees, and you never finished yours.
00:10:52So that's what you think of me.
00:10:53That's reality. And after everything, trust me, Eleanor.
00:10:59Whitmore has no place for you.
00:11:04I don't need your recommendation.
00:11:07And as for whether Whitmore has a place for me or not, why don't you go ask Sebastian Whitmore yourself?
00:11:12Where is she?
00:11:24Where is she?
00:11:24Conference hall. It's tense.
00:11:27From what I heard, she and Daniel Prescott used to be involved.
00:11:30Dumped her.
00:11:31They broke up?
00:11:32Yeah.
00:11:32Well, I guess that saves me the trouble of stealing someone's fiancée.
00:11:38What's your goal here, Eleanor?
00:11:41Seriously, you're trying to crash and burn in public?
00:11:44I'll tell you what it is.
00:11:46She couldn't keep you, so she's trying to drag you down with her.
00:11:49Ew. Pathetic.
00:11:52Ex-revenge?
00:11:54Don't worry, Daniel.
00:11:56I've got you.
00:12:00Remember, Margaret's father is vice chair.
00:12:03With their support, whatever stunt you're pulling ends.
00:12:07Trust me, when Mr. Whitmore gets here, she'll have maybe five minutes left.
00:12:12I can't believe how dumb you are, Eleanor.
00:12:16Honestly, leaving you was the best decision I've ever made.
00:12:21Was it?
00:12:23Because when the trip comes out, you'll realize it was the worst mistake of your life.
00:12:32Yes.
00:12:34Mr. Whitmore is arriving.
00:12:35Mr. Whitmore, he came straight from the airport.
00:12:40He's in the lobby.
00:12:41Wait, he actually came?
00:12:42Oh my god, he's here for Daniel.
00:12:45You hear that, everyone?
00:12:47Sebastian Whitmore is here for my son!
00:12:53This is it.
00:12:54No one can touch us now.
00:12:58You hear that, sweetheart?
00:13:00Whitmore Group doesn't take in strays.
00:13:03Yet.
00:13:05Out.
00:13:06While you still have legs to walk out on.
00:13:09This is your last offer, Eleanor.
00:13:14Half a million dollars.
00:13:17Half a million?
00:13:18For her?
00:13:19It's worth it to keep her from ruining my night.
00:13:24Take the money, Eleanor.
00:13:26Disappear.
00:13:26This is ten times more than you'll ever see in your life.
00:13:35Be smart.
00:13:38Take it.
00:13:40And finish.
00:13:44You talk a lot about power, Daniel.
00:13:46But when you realize the truth about who I really am...
00:13:56You'll be begging me to forget this moment ever happened.
00:14:11What the hell?
00:14:15You dare humiliate me?
00:14:19So you're someone now, huh?
00:14:21Someone who's gonna change things?
00:14:25Then go ahead.
00:14:26Make your little announcement.
00:14:28But if it's bullshit, you're gonna be crawling out of here, kissing every single person's shoes.
00:14:35Come on.
00:14:36This low status nobody doesn't even deserve to kiss anyone's shoes in here.
00:14:40She's my wife.
00:14:55Is that high status enough for you?
00:15:01Mr. Rickmore?
00:15:02I did this to you?
00:15:12It's fine.
00:15:15Just a couple flies buzzing around.
00:15:21I don't recall accepting that little proposal of yours on the plane.
00:15:26I meant what I said.
00:15:28Now let me take out the trash.
00:15:29And who the hell are you storming in here?
00:15:33Did you not hear me the first time?
00:15:35I'm her husband.
00:15:37This woman here?
00:15:39She's my wife.
00:15:41Wait, what?
00:15:43Mr. Whitmore married?
00:15:44But he's never.
00:15:45He's always kept his distance from women.
00:15:47Oh God.
00:15:48I'm dead.
00:15:50I'm so dead.
00:15:55Did you just say she's your wife?
00:15:57Eleanor, you shameless bitch.
00:16:00You strung Daniel along for years.
00:16:02For what?
00:16:03To sleep behind his back and marry someone else?
00:16:05So she was already married.
00:16:07She was never in it for you.
00:16:09She just wanted your money.
00:16:10Was this your plan all along, Eleanor?
00:16:13Playing me while you're sleeping with another man?
00:16:15Don't twist it.
00:16:17You know exactly who betrayed him.
00:16:19She's right.
00:16:21You don't even realize what you've thrown away.
00:16:24Eleanor's a brilliant woman.
00:16:26You were never even close to being worthy of her.
00:16:28So you're saying that my son does not deserve this hooker?
00:16:32He has a PhD.
00:16:34He has a $30 million partner deal.
00:16:36You watch your mouth.
00:16:38Please.
00:16:39Eleanor just crawled back here with nothing.
00:16:41And you expect us to believe she has a husband?
00:16:44Let me guess.
00:16:45She hired you.
00:16:46Right?
00:16:47Hired the pretty face to play the loving husband and save your pride.
00:16:51Right?
00:16:52So would you say she hired an actor?
00:16:54Look at him.
00:16:56Designer suit.
00:16:57Sexy look.
00:16:59Total escort vibes.
00:17:02Exactly.
00:17:03She probably paid for the full fantasy package.
00:17:07Maybe he throws in a couple of extra services, too.
00:17:12Oh, God.
00:17:13That's Mr. Whitmore.
00:17:14She just called the CEO a gigolo.
00:17:21I'm Dr. Prescott.
00:17:23Oh, Uncle Thomas.
00:17:25He probably works at some private club in Soho.
00:17:28She hired him by the hour.
00:17:30Let's not kid ourselves.
00:17:31Okay.
00:17:32I just need to understand.
00:17:33Relax, Uncle Thomas.
00:17:35This cheap street whore doesn't belong at Whitmore.
00:17:41But since Eleanor brought him, we don't have to worry about it.
00:17:45Really, Eleanor?
00:17:47You think hiring a cowboy makes you powerful?
00:17:50It just screams pathetic.
00:17:53Exactly.
00:17:54You pathetic social climber.
00:17:56Take your filthy man and get the hell out of here.
00:17:59Wait, please stop, okay?
00:18:00Uncle Thomas, what?
00:18:02I've gotten into you.
00:18:03Why are you so fussy?
00:18:05It's just a washed-up babysitter and her rented boy toy.
00:18:10Don't worry about it.
00:18:11Look, I will handle it, okay?
00:18:14You want to keep up the fantasy?
00:18:16Good.
00:18:17But before the night ends, both of you will be finished.
00:18:22So you think this is pretend?
00:18:25Still clinging to the drama.
00:18:34No offense.
00:18:34No offense, pretty boy.
00:18:36But if she can afford you, so can I.
00:18:39What's the rate?
00:18:40Whatever she's giving you, I'll give you ten times the amount.
00:18:44If you strip for the room.
00:18:47Oh, God, no, no.
00:18:52They're dead.
00:18:53They are also dead.
00:18:55Say that again.
00:18:57You heard him.
00:18:58Ten times your rate.
00:19:01Ooh, and let Uncle Thomas have a peek.
00:19:03I don't think he's seen a male stripper before.
00:19:05No, no, no.
00:19:07I want no part of this.
00:19:09Oh, come on.
00:19:10Don't be shy.
00:19:11Just enjoy the bachelor's show.
00:19:13You're going to give us a twirl, pretty boy.
00:19:19Daniel, Margaret, you have no idea the line you just call us.
00:19:24Then stop faking.
00:19:27If you're going to play pretend, you can't get mad when people call you out for what you are.
00:19:32All right, cowboy.
00:19:34Final offer.
00:19:38Ten times.
00:19:40Name your price.
00:19:42You watch your mouth.
00:19:53How dare you, you son!
00:19:56Baby, are you okay?
00:19:58I'm going to kill that bastard.
00:19:59Are you insane?
00:20:01Do you have any idea who you just laid your hands on?
00:20:03I don't care who you are.
00:20:05You don't talk about me or my wife like that ever again.
00:20:08You two are dead.
00:20:10You let a cowboy punch a senior candidate, no one will save you now.
00:20:16You just brought war on yourself.
00:20:19You have no idea who her father is.
00:20:22Is that supposed to scare us?
00:20:26Let her talk.
00:20:28I'm interested to see who she thinks I should be afraid of.
00:20:32My father is vice chair of Whitmore Group.
00:20:36Even Sebastian has to respect him.
00:20:38And you two, you just flushed your f***ing chair down the toilet.
00:20:47I'm crazy.
00:20:56Are you out of your f***ing mind?
00:20:59That seat belongs to Sebastian Whitmore.
00:21:02Who do you think you are?
00:21:04No one else dares sit here.
00:21:06I think it kind of suits me.
00:21:09Thomas.
00:21:11You recognize the seat.
00:21:14Would you say I belong here?
00:21:16Yes, sir.
00:21:20Of course you do.
00:21:23Are you out of your mind?
00:21:25That seat belongs to Mr. Whitmore.
00:21:27No one sits there except for him or my father.
00:21:31And you actually dare to park your dumpy ass there?
00:21:35Funny.
00:21:36I'm sitting.
00:21:37And I'm not moving.
00:21:38Got a problem?
00:21:39You want to play big shot?
00:21:44Fine.
00:21:45I'll give you one more chance.
00:21:48You can crawl out of that seat like a little dog in bed with Eleanor.
00:21:53Maybe I'll consider not ruining your life.
00:21:57Beg you?
00:21:59Yeah.
00:22:00Get on your knees.
00:22:02Bark.
00:22:02And crawl a lap around the room in front of everyone.
00:22:06That's the price you pay when you defy us.
00:22:09You hear that, Eleanor?
00:22:11You and your little boy can bark together.
00:22:14How romantic.
00:22:16You're playing with fire.
00:22:17No, sweetheart.
00:22:19I am the fire.
00:22:22Now I'll give you three seconds to kneel.
00:22:25Now.
00:22:27One.
00:22:27One.
00:22:32You.
00:22:34Margaret, please.
00:22:35Please, Margaret.
00:22:36Don't.
00:22:37Get off of me.
00:22:39She hit me.
00:22:40You think I'm going to let that slide?
00:22:42Stand.
00:22:43I do not care if she is the Queen of England.
00:22:45I'm hitting that bitch.
00:22:47Margaret.
00:22:49You should apologize.
00:22:52What?
00:22:53You might want to walk this back, Miss West.
00:22:56It's not too late to apologize.
00:22:58Just think about it.
00:23:02Has everyone lost their minds?
00:23:06You want me to apologize to these two?
00:23:09Yes, you are good.
00:23:11The only reason I call you uncle is because of my father.
00:23:15Now I get humiliated and you want me to apologize?
00:23:18Yes, I'm doing this to protect you, Margaret.
00:23:21You don't know what you're going to step into.
00:23:23What?
00:23:24I'm calling my father and we will see who crawls away when that happens.
00:23:31No, don't call him!
00:23:32Let her.
00:23:34I'd love to see what James West is going to do to me.
00:23:38But...
00:23:38Dad, I'm down on the meeting floor and some bitch just hit me.
00:23:43Can you get down here now, please?
00:23:49He's on his way.
00:23:50And when he gets here, you'll both be done.
00:23:56Oh, Eleanor.
00:23:58Mr. West, Margaret's father, second only to Sebastian and this company.
00:24:05He's coming now.
00:24:06This time, you're finished.
00:24:08Not even I can help you.
00:24:10Help them?
00:24:11Please.
00:24:12They did this to themselves.
00:24:13She and her boy toy need to be crushed.
00:24:16Best.
00:24:18Well, Daniel, you don't get to save me.
00:24:20In my world, you're nothing.
00:24:22Still bluffing?
00:24:23I can't wait to see how hard you cry when James West walks in.
00:24:27Who the hell is hitting my daughter in my building?
00:24:36Dad, thank God you're here.
00:24:50This was supposed to be a welcome event for Dr. Prescott.
00:24:53What the hell's going on?
00:24:54It's not my fault.
00:24:56This woman is causing a scene.
00:24:59Look, she even slapped me.
00:25:01That's insane.
00:25:03Who here had the nerve to lay a hand on my daughter?
00:25:05Did you tell them who I am?
00:25:07Of course I did.
00:25:08They didn't care.
00:25:10And even worse, her cowboy husband marched right in here and sat in Mr. Whitmore's feet.
00:25:15It's true, Mr. Vice Chair.
00:25:17That woman and her man, completely out of line.
00:25:21Mr. West, actually, there's something you should know.
00:25:24Shut up, you fool!
00:25:26You allowed someone to lay their hands on my daughter here in my building?
00:25:30Mr. West, you understand?
00:25:32That man is Mr. Whitmore.
00:25:35You dare bring up Mr. Whitmore?
00:25:37Dr. Prescott was hired by him.
00:25:40And this, this is what you allow to happen when Mr. Whitmore is to return?
00:25:45No!
00:25:45I...
00:25:46You.
00:25:48You two.
00:25:52You are the ones that are stirring up all this trouble?
00:25:58That's right!
00:25:59Him!
00:26:00He is Eleanor's fake husband!
00:26:03And she is the one that's been causing all of the problems!
00:26:08Mr. West, my son Daniel, he used to date Eleanor.
00:26:12But that's been done for a long time now.
00:26:15He has nothing to do with what's happened here today.
00:26:18Relax.
00:26:19Dr. Prescott was personally chosen by Mr. Whitmore.
00:26:22He won't be held responsible.
00:26:24Oh, thank you, Mr. West!
00:26:28Hear that?
00:26:29My dad is here.
00:26:31He runs this place right under Sebastian.
00:26:34You are so done.
00:26:35And what happened to all that attitude?
00:26:39Hiding behind a chair now that a real boss is in the room?
00:26:42You really have no idea what's coming.
00:26:46Have you completely lost it?
00:26:49You dragged some random escort in here to play husband.
00:26:52And now he's sitting in Mr. Whitmore's chair too scared to turn around.
00:26:58Hey!
00:26:59You!
00:27:01Get your ass out of that chair right now
00:27:04before this gets ugly.
00:27:07All right, that's enough.
00:27:09Someone go turn that damn chair around
00:27:11so I can see this cloud's face!
00:27:13With pleasure.
00:27:17With pleasure.
00:27:18Daniel,
00:27:19I wouldn't touch that chair if I were you.
00:27:22Because when you do,
00:27:23your little career crumbles.
00:27:26Is that supposed to scare me?
00:27:28No, it's just a fact.
00:27:30He's not someone you're a boss.
00:27:32My father is the vice chair of Whitmore.
00:27:37No one outranks him except for Sebastian.
00:27:40And you actually think that we should be afraid of your little cowboy here?
00:27:44You think we're supposed to be scared of a guy you picked up in a nightclub?
00:27:48Please.
00:27:50These two are running this like some sort of drama box show.
00:27:54But everybody knows trash is trash.
00:27:59Maybe all those years of poverty fried your brain, Eleanor.
00:28:02You should know Mr. West is not someone you can afford to offend.
00:28:07Really? And why is that?
00:28:09Because you're a nobody.
00:28:11Mr. West could have you and your husband crippled before lunch.
00:28:16You all love to talk about who's finished.
00:28:19But once that chair turns around,
00:28:21you'll realize it's all you who are done for.
00:28:24You're saying Mr. West is the one in trouble?
00:28:26You have truly lost your fucking mind since our breakup.
00:28:30Well, this is you.
00:28:32I don't think I've ever had a kid tell me I was done for.
00:28:36You got guts.
00:28:37I'll give you that.
00:28:39My guts aren't going to help you if you piss me off.
00:28:44Now.
00:28:44Let me tell you what happens when your little husband
00:28:51tries to con his way into the Whitmore group.
00:28:57Oh, this is exciting.
00:28:58But do you think breaking their legs is enough?
00:29:01Maybe we should just pop them out of the country for good.
00:29:04Yes.
00:29:04That's what I plan to do.
00:29:07You.
00:29:10Turn that damn chair around right now.
00:29:12Or I'm going to do it myself.
00:29:14No, Mr. West, please!
00:29:16You can't!
00:29:16Why the hell not?
00:29:19They deserve it.
00:29:21The only thing I can't understand is why
00:29:23everyone is acting so scared!
00:29:26You know, they actually told me to apologize.
00:29:28Apologize?
00:29:29To them?
00:29:31Well, since you're all so desperate to meet them.
00:29:39Sebastian?
00:29:41Mind saying hello?
00:29:42I suppose we shouldn't keep them waiting.
00:29:44That voice sounds so familiar.
00:29:48No, it can't be!
00:29:49Stop pretending!
00:29:51Turn that chair around!
00:29:52Is that supposed to scare me?
00:30:11I turned the chair, so now what?
00:30:15No.
00:30:17No way.
00:30:17You wanted to see me, James West?
00:30:23Mr. Whitmore!
00:30:25Dad, no need to call Mr. Whitmore.
00:30:28He'll be here any minute.
00:30:30And when he gets here, you two are dead.
00:30:33This is your last chance, Eleanor.
00:30:36Before Mr. Whitmore gets here, beg.
00:30:39You might just walk out of here.
00:30:40I won't beg anyone.
00:30:42But you?
00:30:44You can start practicing your apologies now.
00:30:48Don't waste your breath on them.
00:30:51If they want to burn, let them.
00:30:54You see that, Eleanor?
00:30:56The fantasy is dead.
00:30:58Now that my dad's here, he'll...
00:31:00He'll kill you both.
00:31:02So get out of that chair, cowboy,
00:31:03before you lose that precious ass that earns you a life.
00:31:06Shut up!
00:31:13Dad, why are you shaking?
00:31:17Oh, I get it.
00:31:18You're going to kick them out before Sebastian gets here.
00:31:21Perfect.
00:31:22Do it.
00:31:24You two are dead.
00:31:26You see my dad's hands?
00:31:28They're shaking.
00:31:29They only do that when he's really pissed.
00:31:32And the more they shake, the angrier he is.
00:31:35Consider, perhaps, he's not shaking from anger.
00:31:40Please.
00:31:41My father fears no one.
00:31:44And if they're trembling,
00:31:46it's because he's about to fire every last one of you.
00:31:52You still don't see where it sits, do you?
00:31:56Pathetic.
00:31:57You're still bragging even when you're about to be thrown out of here?
00:32:00Keep talking, Eleanor.
00:32:01You're digging your own grave.
00:32:04Dad.
00:32:04Are you done digging yet?
00:32:06Can we go ahead and deal with these nobodies?
00:32:09Yes.
00:32:12Yes, I'll deal with them.
00:32:17Boom!
00:32:18I'm dealing with you!
00:32:19Dad!
00:32:30You fool!
00:32:33Do you not know what you've done?
00:32:35Me?
00:32:37They're the ones causing all this trouble!
00:32:39Dad!
00:32:41Shut it!
00:32:43And apologize to them right now!
00:32:46Apologize to them?
00:32:47And Mr. West, they assaulted your daughter.
00:32:49Why would we apologize to them?
00:32:51You braindless idiots!
00:33:00Do you not know who that is?
00:33:02You can't do this!
00:33:03I just...
00:33:05I'm a PhD!
00:33:06I just made partner at Whitmore!
00:33:08Oh!
00:33:09A PhD!
00:33:11Who made partner?
00:33:12I had no idea!
00:33:14That changes zero!
00:33:21PhD!
00:33:22PhD!
00:33:23What are you doing?
00:33:31This is my son's celebration!
00:33:33There's no celebration!
00:33:35Not without that guy!
00:33:38Because that is Sebastian, the CEO of Whitmore Group.
00:33:43What?
00:33:45Mr. Whitmore!
00:33:47I apologize for my idiot kid.
00:33:52Please, sir.
00:33:54Forgive us.
00:33:55Mr. Whitmore!
00:33:56Please forgive us!
00:33:57I don't know, Eleanor said she was married to that guy, that, that man, Sebastian.
00:34:15No, no, no, no, he's, he's not Sebastian, that is just some gigolos that she hired.
00:34:24Dad, dad, this is a trick, right?
00:34:26This is just some joke.
00:34:28You idiot.
00:34:30You have ruined the West name.
00:34:34Now get our roomies and beg him for forgiveness.
00:34:38So that really is Sebastian?
00:34:45Mr. Whitmer, I am so sorry.
00:34:48Please forgive me, I didn't know who you were, please don't ruin us.
00:34:53You're lucky I don't lay my hands on a woman.
00:34:55But this isn't over.
00:34:57James, is this the heir you've raised?
00:35:01Perhaps you should resign from the board and teach your daughter what respect is.
00:35:05No, sir, I, I am sorry.
00:35:07My daughter is young.
00:35:09She's stupid and she does not represent me.
00:35:13You're right, she doesn't.
00:35:15But you do.
00:35:17And that's the problem.
00:35:19You're fired.
00:35:21No, please, sir, don't.
00:35:23So now I get it, Eleanor.
00:35:25That's why you had no fear.
00:35:27Because you had Whitmore beside you the whole time.
00:35:31You must really think you're an untouchable big shot now, huh?
00:35:35No, you've got it wrong.
00:35:40I'm not untouchable because of Sebastian.
00:35:43I'm untouchable because I always was.
00:35:47Seven years, Daniel.
00:35:49And you never once asked who I was.
00:35:52You were so eager to leave, you never stopped to see who you were leaving.
00:35:57I, Dr. Prescott, we fast-tracked you for talent.
00:36:00Yes, your academic record is impressive.
00:36:02But here at Whitmore, we hire for integrity.
00:36:05And you failed that test.
00:36:08Your offer is dead.
00:36:09What?
00:36:10Wait, Mr. Whitmore, please.
00:36:12My son has been working his entire life for this place.
00:36:15I'll throw him out.
00:36:16My decision is final.
00:36:18No amount of begging is going to change it.
00:36:20And you know exactly the reason, Dr. Prescott.
00:36:22I, I, I...
00:36:25Sebastian Whitmore.
00:36:34You have gone too far.
00:36:39Madam Whitmore.
00:36:40Madam Whitmore.
00:36:44Grandma.
00:36:45Don't you dare call me that.
00:36:48The way you have defied this family.
00:36:51You've really outdone yourself this time, Sebastian.
00:36:57Grandma told you to marry Sylvia Caldwell.
00:37:00And what do you do?
00:37:01Huh?
00:37:02Ghost us?
00:37:03And then strut back in here and try to fire people?
00:37:06About the engagement, I'm...
00:37:08You forgot who runs this place.
00:37:10You might have the CEO title, but Grandma.
00:37:13Built for the Whitmore Group from the ground up.
00:37:16And as far as Dr. Prescott and Mr. West, you don't have the authority to fire them.
00:37:23Did you hear that, Daniel?
00:37:25They were getting fired!
00:37:26But who is that guy?
00:37:28Why is he talking back to Sebastian Whitmore?
00:37:30That's Winston, Sebastian's big brother.
00:37:33Word is, through families at war, Grandma prefers Winston.
00:37:38Don't overstep, Winston.
00:37:39I'm still the acting CEO.
00:37:40Staffing decisions are mine.
00:37:41If Grandma doesn't say otherwise, little brother.
00:37:42Sebastian.
00:37:43James has given decades to this company.
00:37:44And his termination is not happening.
00:37:45Thank you, Madam Whitmore.
00:37:46I appreciate you standing up for me.
00:37:47And as for him, he stays.
00:37:50You do not have the authority to touch him.
00:37:51Grandma, he...
00:37:52Thunder Circle funds all of the top scholars of the world.
00:37:53And their chairwoman, Lady Thibault,
00:37:55Lady Thunders, arrives tomorrow.
00:37:56We must garner her.
00:37:57And his termination is not happening.
00:37:58And his termination is not happening.
00:37:59Thank you, Madam Whitmore.
00:38:00I appreciate you standing up for me.
00:38:04And as for him, he stays.
00:38:07You do not have the authority to touch him.
00:38:13Grandma, he...
00:38:14Thunder Circle funds all of the top scholars of the world.
00:38:18And their chairwoman, Lady Thunder, arrives tomorrow.
00:38:22We must garner her favor.
00:38:26And Dr. Prescott, he is just the golden boy that she is looking for.
00:38:33So, he stays for Whitmore.
00:38:38You got that?
00:38:44Yes.
00:38:45Now, let's focus on what matters.
00:38:49Your marriage to Sylvia Caldwell.
00:38:52That marriage will lock us into the Thunder Circle.
00:38:57Grandma, I'm not marrying Sylvia.
00:38:59I'm already...
00:39:00I have made my decision, and it will not change!
00:39:04No wonder he was in such a rush to find someone to marry.
00:39:09He helped me once.
00:39:11I guess now it's my turn to return the favor.
00:39:19Lady Thunder, Whitmore's proposal has been approved.
00:39:22We'll go public at tomorrow's gala.
00:39:24Whitmore will be our first official U.S. partner.
00:39:26Perfect.
00:39:28Make sure it's loud.
00:39:33I'm gonna give my husband a surprise.
00:39:41Sebastian, I know you're upset.
00:39:44But your marriage to Sylvia connects us to the Caldwell family.
00:39:48And to the Thunder Circle.
00:39:51That is the future.
00:39:53Would you rather hand over our legacy to someone else?
00:39:57I believe in building things myself, not chasing shortcuts.
00:40:01Shortcuts?
00:40:02It's called strategy.
00:40:05If the road to power is already paved, why waste time laying bricks?
00:40:12Then I disagree, madam.
00:40:15That's not strategy, that's fear.
00:40:17You can't force Sebastian to marry someone else.
00:40:20What the hell is she doing?
00:40:22Oh god, it's her again.
00:40:24Doesn't she ever get tired of humiliating herself?
00:40:27Who let the trash in?
00:40:29Someone needs to take her back out to the curb.
00:40:31Who is she?
00:40:32Madam Whitmore.
00:40:34This is Eleanor, my ex.
00:40:37She stalked me here and then latched onto Sebastian, pretending to be his wife just to oppose your engagement plans.
00:40:44Shut up, Daniel.
00:40:45One more word and I'll shatter your jaw.
00:40:48You see that?
00:40:49He's panicking.
00:40:50Madam?
00:40:52Those two are lying to your face.
00:40:56That girl Eleanor, she just latched onto Sebastian to get herself out of trouble.
00:41:01That's just part of their scheme.
00:41:03Sebastian is using this little act to get out of his engagement with Sylvia.
00:41:08Yes.
00:41:09Sebastian and I started out as pretend, but we're not pretending anymore.
00:41:14And what are you playing at?
00:41:17Sebastian Whitmore.
00:41:19Are you kidding me?
00:41:20For real?
00:41:21Oh, you gotta be shitting me.
00:41:34Are you out of your mind?
00:41:38You're doubling down on this circus.
00:41:41It's hilarious that you actually think he is going to marry you.
00:41:46So you're trying to take advantage now.
00:41:48Even if Sebastian's in trouble, there's no way he'd stoop to marrying a lowlife like you.
00:41:53Sebastian, if you say yes to her now, you will lose everything.
00:41:59Do you even know what you're doing?
00:42:01Of course.
00:42:02You proposed to me.
00:42:03I'm just returning the favor.
00:42:05What's the matter, Sebastian?
00:42:07Are you scared?
00:42:08Eleanor, when I proposed to you, I had everything and you turned me down.
00:42:12And now that I'm suddenly in trouble, it's a yes?
00:42:15Exactly.
00:42:16I'm not saying yes to your title and fortune.
00:42:19I'm saying yes to you.
00:42:21Just as you are.
00:42:23Then, Eleanor, I say yes to you.
00:42:34I will marry you.
00:42:38There.
00:42:40Where's my wife now?
00:42:42Anyone got a problem with that?
00:42:53Well done, Sebastian.
00:42:58So what?
00:42:59You think by marrying some random girl, you now have a fight against your family?
00:43:04I see now my word means nothing to you anymore.
00:43:08So let me make this clear.
00:43:12I am suspending Sebastian from all duties as CEO of the Whitmore Group.
00:43:20Grandma, you can't be serious.
00:43:23I've already secured an investment from the Thunder Circle.
00:43:26I-
00:43:27Stop calling me that.
00:43:29The moment you proposed to that woman, you made your choice over the family.
00:43:34And this is only the beginning.
00:43:36Tomorrow's gala will honor Lady Thunder.
00:43:39And the family received invite-only tickets from Sylvia, who you betrayed.
00:43:43And you will attend, and you will pacify Sylvia, because it's your last chance.
00:43:50And if you fail, you can go pack your things and move out of our family.
00:43:58And I know you've been chasing investments behind our back.
00:44:10But Sylvia has promised me that unless you marry her, you won't see a single cent from the Thunder Circle.
00:44:17That's impossible.
00:44:18I already received a confirmation from the Thunder Circle.
00:44:21The deal's done.
00:44:22Confirmation?
00:44:23Talk is cheap.
00:44:26Unless you have a signed contract, you have nothing.
00:44:31Mr. Whitmore, we haven't received the signed contract yet.
00:44:35See?
00:44:37How I can't wait to see you fall, little brother.
00:44:40And you, girl, think you can just come in here and steal Sylvia's fiance?
00:44:47You have no idea the hell you've raised.
00:44:53And Dr. Prescott, you'll be joining us tomorrow for the gala.
00:44:57Did you hear that, Daniel?
00:44:59You're invited to a gala that only invites a billionaire.
00:45:03That's right.
00:45:04Your recommendation comes directly from the Thunder Circle.
00:45:08What?
00:45:09Comes from where?
00:45:11Is that true?
00:45:13The Thunder Circle wrote my son the letter?
00:45:16According to Sylvia, Lady Thunder has a soft spot for Polish scholars.
00:45:20Tomorrow's your chance.
00:45:22You play your cards right.
00:45:24She might take a liking tea.
00:45:26Thank you, Mr. Whitmore.
00:45:28I will go.
00:45:30Good.
00:45:31Then it's settled.
00:45:32The Thunder Circle gave their word.
00:45:37They wouldn't back out.
00:45:39Parker, would you please go check on that for me?
00:45:42Yes, sir.
00:45:43Hey.
00:45:44Relax.
00:45:45I said they'd invest in you, they slow-bo.
00:45:50Really?
00:45:51A back room's nobody like you thinks they could land capital at the Thunder Circle?
00:45:57We'll see who's laughing tomorrow.
00:46:03And just to be clear, the Thunder Circle will never change.
00:46:07You think someone like you matters to the Thunder Circle?
00:46:12You are not invited, but we are.
00:46:15You'll see whether I matter tomorrow.
00:46:18Tomorrow?
00:46:19You stole Sylvia Caldwell's husband.
00:46:22Be lucky if you're still breathing by tomorrow.
00:46:25If you have even a shred of sense left, you'll get on a plane tonight.
00:46:29Stop wasting your last hours chasing your gold digger fantasy.
00:46:34Oh, so I'm the gold digger now?
00:46:37Of course!
00:46:38You're cleaning with Sebastian like he's your lifeline.
00:46:41But not even he can support you now.
00:46:44Forget it, Mom.
00:46:45Talking to her is a waste of time.
00:46:47If I do end up impressing the Thunder Circle tomorrow, maybe I'll toss you a favor.
00:46:53Keep you alive.
00:46:56Let's go.
00:46:59I hope tomorrow, when you all realize I'm the CEO of the Circle, you still feel this high.
00:47:14Hey, don't listen to them.
00:47:17I'll do whatever it takes to keep you safe tomorrow.
00:47:20Relax, Mr. Whitmore.
00:47:22I got this.
00:47:24Tomorrow at the gala, everything will be handled.
00:47:27Yes, ma'am.
00:47:28I get it.
00:47:29You're the dangerous one.
00:47:30But the Thunder Circle, the Caldwell family, they're a lot to handle.
00:47:37So what?
00:47:38So, tomorrow I'll sign the deal.
00:47:40I'll secure everything.
00:47:41Because keeping you safe is my job now.
00:47:44Wow, what a hero.
00:47:46Now what happened to that cocky CEO who was begging me to marry him on the plane?
00:47:52Oh, come on.
00:47:53That was so embarrassing.
00:47:54That guy on the plane, he's dead now.
00:47:56He no longer exists, alright?
00:47:58So, my wife, shall we move to the next step?
00:48:03Let's get married.
00:48:05Maybe Thunder.
00:48:06How are the preparations for tomorrow's gala?
00:48:12Everything is ready.
00:48:14Uh, the media's locked and the billion dollar contract for Whitmore has been firewashed.
00:48:21Good.
00:48:22Just remember, this isn't for the Whitmore family, this is for Sebastian.
00:48:28So make sure all the funds fall into his hands only.
00:48:31Understood.
00:48:32Also, two of our allies are requesting the news.
00:48:47One is Prince Amir of the Diamond Magnet and the other is General Heredia.
00:48:50They're outside.
00:48:51Should I let them in?
00:48:53Okay. They're outside. Should I let them in?
00:48:56Fingerman?
00:49:02Lady Thunder.
00:49:04Lady Thunder?
00:49:06Please.
00:49:10So, how have you been? Your business is good?
00:49:14Yes, Lady Thunder. And thank you.
00:49:17Your support doing my toughest year meant everything.
00:49:21My weapons empire now spans five continents.
00:49:25Impressive. And you, Amir?
00:49:29As usual, I'm doing well. Without your backing, I wouldn't be where I am.
00:49:33Leading my country with stability.
00:49:36It's good to hear.
00:49:37So, can I expect both of you at the gala tomorrow?
00:49:40Of course.
00:49:42Whatever you want, Lady Thunder. Just say the word.
00:49:45I will back you, no matter what.
00:49:48I'm afraid I can't attend.
00:49:52Things have grown tense between the Cold West and me.
00:49:57What happened?
00:49:59Well, in the past few years, they've been expanding aggressively.
00:50:04Crushing competitors left and right.
00:50:07I thought they were acting with your approval, so I...
00:50:11I didn't intervene.
00:50:13No, I never authorized any of that.
00:50:19Seems I underestimated how far they'd go.
00:50:22This ends now.
00:50:24They will answer for everything that they've done.
00:50:26Well, then tomorrow should be...
00:50:29Entertaining.
00:50:30I can't.
00:50:31Let's shake the world together.
00:50:32Cheers.
00:50:33Sebastian?
00:50:34Sebastian?
00:50:35Sebastian?
00:50:36Sebastian?
00:50:37Hey.
00:50:38Just tell me.
00:50:39I can't.
00:50:40I can't.
00:50:41I can't.
00:50:42I can't.
00:50:43Let's shake the world together.
00:50:44Let's shake the world together.
00:50:46Cheers.
00:50:47Sebastian?
00:50:52Sebastian?
00:50:53Hey.
00:50:54Just checked me in.
00:50:55I wanted to see if you're free tomorrow.
00:50:56What's going on?
00:50:57Well, the gala's tomorrow and, uh, I had a few dresses made for you.
00:51:11A few?
00:51:12You make it sound like you're hosting a fashion week for me.
00:51:15Well, as your husband, it's my job to make sure you're the most stunning woman in the room.
00:51:20Is that so?
00:51:22Or is it so you can make your enemies jealous?
00:51:25Who says I can't do both?
00:51:29I gotta go.
00:51:30Talk tomorrow.
00:51:34Mr. Whitmore.
00:51:36Lady Thunder is currently in a closed meeting.
00:51:38She won't be seeing anyone today.
00:51:40Uh, Mr. Lee, I just need to confirm about the investment.
00:51:44Mr. Whitmore.
00:51:45Lady Thunder has a high level of belief in you.
00:51:47You'll get your answer at the gala.
00:51:49Thank you, Mr. Lee.
00:51:50Thank you, Mr. Lee.
00:51:52Mr. Lee, thank you.
00:51:58Mr. Lee, Mr. Lee, thank you, Mr. Lee, thank you.
00:52:15Tonight is the gala.
00:52:42Luckily, Sylvia introduced us to her brother, Ravine.
00:52:47He owns the most exclusive boutique in the city.
00:52:52Even celebrities come here and still leave empty handed.
00:52:56Unbelievable.
00:52:57Mr. Cogwell, you really shouldn't have.
00:53:01Every piece in here costs at least six figures.
00:53:05Well, it is worth every penny if it gains Lady Thunder's attention.
00:53:11Pick out anything you want in the store.
00:53:14Thank you. And your sister too.
00:53:18Dr. Prescott, you will be representing both the Whitmore and Caldwell families at the gala.
00:53:24Do help us gain Lady Thunder's favor.
00:53:27Absolutely.
00:53:28That's my boy.
00:53:31PhD perfect.
00:53:34And maybe about to become Lady Thunder's future partner?
00:53:38My boy, let's be honest.
00:53:41Next to Lady Thunder?
00:53:43That girl Eleanor?
00:53:44Margaret.
00:53:45They're nothing.
00:53:47If she notices you and you end up marrying her, you'd rule!
00:53:54You have got to be kidding me.
00:54:00Eleanor!
00:54:02Well, well. Look who thinks she's someone now. You've got some nerve showing your face around here.
00:54:13Watch your mouth. My wife can go wherever the hell she pleases.
00:54:17Sebastian brought you to play dress up. Adorable.
00:54:23Too bad this dress costs more than you may hear here.
00:54:28Who is she, Sebastian? I thought you were still with my sister?
00:54:33And you are? You seriously don't know? This is Sylvia Caldwell's brother?
00:54:41How shameless! First you stole Sylvia Caldwell's fiancé and now you're shopping like you belong here?!
00:54:48Wait, so what?!
00:54:50Poor Avian, you didn't know.
00:54:53This gold digger cons Sebastian to marrying her.
00:54:57She's pretending to be Mrs. Whitmore.
00:55:00What? Married?!
00:55:03Sebastian, you threw away my sister for this cheap whore?!
00:55:07Watch your mouth.
00:55:08Whatever arrangement I had with Sylvia is over and I'll deal with her.
00:55:11But you never get to insult my wife.
00:55:13Your wife in my store.
00:55:17I have every right to throw you both out.
00:55:20Her first!
00:55:22Oh yeah? Let me make it easy for you.
00:55:24We'll take everything.
00:55:25Every dress, every necklace, every damn shoe in this place.
00:55:28By the end of this day, the store will be mine.
00:55:34Wow, Eleanor. What did it take? Two days to hook him?
00:55:39Seriously, Miss Ashton? You're giving up Sylvia. For her? What's the appeal?
00:55:50Maybe it's a little bit better in bed now.
00:55:54I don't get my wife. You don't get here to speak about my wife ever!
00:55:59Mr. Whitmore! You're not even CEO anymore!
00:56:02Just cause I'm not sitting in the chair doesn't mean I'm powerless.
00:56:06Please! My son has a PhD! One day he's going to surpass you!
00:56:13Did you pass me?
00:56:14Yes! My son Daniel! He is about to marry the most powerful woman alive!
00:56:21Lady Thunder herself!
00:56:26What? I'm sorry, what?
00:56:28So, you regret it now? You left my son and now he's going to marry the woman that could crush you both!
00:56:35Actually, you're not entirely wrong. Daniel, your mother thinks you'll marry the Lady Thunder. Maybe that was possible. Once. But not anymore.
00:56:45And who the hell are you to say that?
00:56:48Because I'm Lady Thunder.
00:56:53Chairwoman of the Thunder Circle. And you? I mean, you've lost the right to even dream of standing by my side.
00:57:02You? Lady Thunder.
00:57:09Okay, can someone give the girl an Oscar?
00:57:12Everyone hear this? This lunatic thinks she runs the Thunder Circle and decides my son's future!
00:57:18I don't know, a Lady Thunder's that thing we could throw around like that, but you can't.
00:57:24You bitch! You break into my store spouting delusions?
00:57:32Adam, I'd like you to buy up every Caldwell Boutique worldwide. I want the brand under my name.
00:57:46What? Do you even know how much it costs to buy my store?
00:57:51Eleanor, I get it. The breakup scrambled your brain, but pretending to be Lady Thunder? You're gonna get poor Sebastian killed.
00:58:01So Daniel, in your world, a woman like me could never be her?
00:58:05Even if you clawed your way up by some miracle, you'd still be nothing.
00:58:12Sucking them dry. That's all you're good for.
00:58:16Enough of the circus.
00:58:18Can we call security and drag them out of here before she brings all of us down?
00:58:23If everyone touches her, I'll ruin you.
00:58:28Do you realize what you're doing? You are crossing a lie.
00:58:33Seriously, Sebastian. You side with her, you're both done. The Thunder Circle will eat you alive.
00:58:48Sylvia?
00:58:49Yes, I'm handling it.
00:58:52What? They bought it.
00:58:56The Thunder Circle has acquired all Caldwell Boutiques.
00:59:01What? That's impossible!
00:59:03And Eleanor is the new owner?
00:59:12No, no! This is some mistake!
00:59:14There is no way that street rat owns this place! It's a scam! A trick!
00:59:20Well, Levine, looks like I own the shop now.
00:59:24You're no longer welcome here, so leave before I have the guards escort you out.
00:59:29What?
00:59:30You bitch!
00:59:31You can't do this! You have any idea!
00:59:34Say one more word and I'll have your name erased from the fashion world like chalk in the rain.
00:59:40Do you want to try me?
00:59:43No.
00:59:45Guards!
00:59:47Remove them.
00:59:48Daniel, could she really be Lady Thunder?
01:00:00Absolutely not. I've known her for years. There's no way she could run the Thunder Circle.
01:00:06Then how the fuck did she buy my sword?
01:00:09You still don't get it?
01:00:11That nanny work she did in Africa? That's where she met Lady Thunder, who just so happens to also run a charity there.
01:00:18So you're saying she used Lady Thunder's sympathy to get this?
01:00:23Exactly.
01:00:25She's nothing but a side piece with great timing.
01:00:29But tonight, I'll expose her.
01:00:33Tonight, her little luck ends.
01:00:36Eleanor, you're not seriously telling me the real Lady Thunder.
01:00:46I can't tell Sebastian everything. Not yet. Not until the gala.
01:00:51Back when I was working in Africa, I met her.
01:00:55You met Lady Thunder?
01:00:57Yes.
01:00:59She visited one of the shelters we spoke, so...
01:01:03I reached out to her just now.
01:01:05Asked for help.
01:01:07Why didn't you tell me you knew her before?
01:01:09Look, I'm... I'm sorry.
01:01:12This is great.
01:01:13I mean, if Lady Thunder's on your side, there is no way Sylvia's gonna lay a hand on you tonight.
01:01:18Sounds like you really don't want to see me get hurt.
01:01:22Of course not.
01:01:24You're my wife.
01:01:27You stood behind me when everything fell apart.
01:01:30Tonight, I'm gonna do everything it takes to protect you.
01:01:34It's my only job now.
01:01:36That's the first time a man's ever said that to me.
01:01:48But tonight, after the gala, it's official.
01:01:54Public.
01:01:56That doesn't scare you?
01:01:58I've been dying to tell the world you're mine.
01:02:14Winston, congratulations.
01:02:15Everyone knows your grandmother suspended Sebastian from his position, and that makes you next in line for CEO.
01:02:23Well, let's be honest.
01:02:26Sebastian has never been CEO material.
01:02:29My grandmother saw that.
01:02:31And so did the board.
01:02:33You've got the support of the Caldwell family, and their ties to the circle aren't small.
01:02:37And tonight, Lady Thunder will be announcing who's next in line for the billion dollar investment.
01:02:43And you, Whitmore's golden boy, look like you've got it locked.
01:02:46You've got a lot of nerves showing up here, Sebastian.
01:02:49You've got a lot of nerves showing up here, Sebastian.
01:02:50You've got a lot of nerves showing up here, Sebastian.
01:02:55You've got a lot of nerves showing up here, Sebastian.
01:02:56You've got a lot of nerves showing up here, Sebastian.
01:02:58This is the Thunder Circle return galley.
01:02:59If you're a member of Whitmore, I have every right to be here.
01:03:01If you're a member of Whitmore, I have every right to be here.
01:03:02Well, you should be at Sylvia's Suite, not parading around here like you still belong at the top.
01:03:07And you, since when did Gutter Trash just show up?
01:03:10Eleanor's my wife.
01:03:11You don't get to speak to her that way.
01:03:12Your wife?
01:03:13Did you just sing that out loud?
01:03:14Everyone, gather round.
01:03:15I have a little joke to tell you.
01:03:17Now this man, my brother, used to be the acting CEO of the Whitmore Group.
01:03:18He could have married Sylvia, and joined the family.
01:03:19This man, I have a good friend.
01:03:20You'd think you're a guy named.
01:03:21This man could be the director of the Whitmore Group.
01:03:26I'll see you next time.
01:03:29I'll see you next time.
01:03:34Don't realise you're a guy named him.
01:03:38So he's a guy named Novartis, who's the director of the Whittmore Group.
01:03:43I'm sure he's not a guy named him.
01:03:44He's the director of the Whitmore Group, and asked me to tell you.
01:03:46and join the powerful Caldwell family, but instead, he married her, a gold digger.
01:03:53Now, isn't that hilarious?
01:03:56It's true, Sebastian used to be a force.
01:04:00And now, he's just another doughy boy who got tricked by the wiles of a cheap hole.
01:04:05He offended the Caldwell family? He's dead now.
01:04:10You hear that, Sebastian? Doesn't that make you feel pathetic?
01:04:16You shut your mouth, or I'll break that smug little jaw of yours.
01:04:22But you should be crawling back to Sylvia for scraps.
01:04:26And you, this poor excuse for life. I'll deal with you first.
01:04:33I'd like to see what kind of idiot thinks they can deal with me here.
01:04:37Don't you run your mouth!
01:04:46You bitch!
01:04:51You come to me, Winston. You bastard.
01:04:54I'm your brother!
01:04:56You're gonna let this bitch humiliate me in front of everyone, huh?
01:05:00Sebastian, let him go.
01:05:03I'm curious to see how far he'll take this.
01:05:06Isn't she just a nobody? Where does she get the guts?
01:05:09Because she's riding Sebastian's coattails. Once he's gone, she's out.
01:05:14You just humiliated your entire family in front of everyone.
01:05:19You chose a bitch over the blood.
01:05:22That's fine.
01:05:24As far as I'm concerned, you are exiled from the Whitmore family.
01:05:28You don't have the authority to exile me, Whitmore.
01:05:36He does not, but I do!
01:05:44Grandma.
01:05:46Sebastian.
01:05:49I'm going to ask you this for the last time.
01:05:52Are you going to marry Sylvia?
01:05:55No, grandmother. I never loved her.
01:05:59I didn't ask you if you loved her. I asked, will you marry her?
01:06:04No. I won't divorce Eleanor.
01:06:07You're going to risk the future of our family for this useless woman?
01:06:13You might be my grandmother, but you don't get to insult my wife.
01:06:17Do you really think marrying into the Caldwell family is going to elevate us?
01:06:20Of course I do!
01:06:22And what are you trying to say?
01:06:25The Caldwells say merge, but you and I both really know what they want.
01:06:29They want our assets, our name.
01:06:31And when they're done sucking us dry, Wilmore will be nothing.
01:06:36We can't trust them.
01:06:37And we can't trust Sylvia.
01:06:39No wonder Sebastian's a CEO.
01:06:43Sharp instincts.
01:06:44Looks like I picked the right man.
01:06:46Grandma, don't listen to him.
01:06:49Sylvia promised.
01:06:50And if Sebastian agrees, the Caldwells will take us deep into the inner core of the Thunder Circle.
01:06:56You're sure?
01:06:57Absolutely. That's what this whole night is for.
01:06:59And Sylvia's already on her way.
01:07:01Aside from Lady Thunder, she is the centerpiece of this gala.
01:07:06If we cross her, we lose everything.
01:07:11You're right.
01:07:13We cannot afford to offend the Caldwells now.
01:07:17Do you hear that?
01:07:18Do you see what we have at stake?
01:07:20What are you laughing at?
01:07:24All of this.
01:07:26You're ready to sell Sebastian off for a shot at winning Sylvia's attention.
01:07:31And you call that a strategy?
01:07:34Just sniffing up the wrong trail.
01:07:36What do you mean?
01:07:38What I mean is if you're looking for investment from Thunder Circle, you don't need the Caldwells.
01:07:44You need me.
01:07:45What are you saying?
01:07:50Don't be ridiculous.
01:07:51Even a rat in the Thunder Circle has more value than you.
01:07:55She's out of her mind.
01:07:56The Thunder Circle is untouchable.
01:07:59How does someone like her say something like that?
01:08:01You're all looking down on me because you don't know who I really am.
01:08:05But when you find out, you'll all be kneeling.
01:08:09Prove it.
01:08:10But if you're lying, you know there's a price.
01:08:13I am-
01:08:14This isn't about her lies.
01:08:16She's going to bring down the entire Whitmore family legacy.
01:08:25Mrs. Whitmore, you may not know this, but yesterday Sebastian and Eleanor aggressively acquired every Ravine Caldwell boutique.
01:08:34Sebastian?
01:08:36Is this true?
01:08:38The boutiques were taken over by Lady Thunder.
01:08:40Eleanor just asked for help.
01:08:42How did she know?
01:08:43Because they played the charity card.
01:08:46Years in Africa, nannying kids, all of it was to gain the Lady Thunder's favor.
01:08:53Exactly.
01:08:54No wonder she seduced Sebastian, turned him against his own family.
01:08:58She has made a career out of clinging into powerful people.
01:09:02She's dangerous.
01:09:03She's a conniving parasite.
01:09:04You have offended the heir of the Caldwell family, and now you're trying to drag us down with you?
01:09:14You ruined the Alliance, and now you show up here and crash the Thunder Circle Gala? We should make her crawl and beg for forgiveness.
01:09:24The ones who've been trying to crush you are the Caldwells. They should beg for forgiveness.
01:09:31You arrogant lunatic! Who are you to talk shit about the Caldwells?
01:09:35I'm just stating the facts.
01:09:38You're amazing.
01:09:41Facts, huh?
01:09:47That's Sylvia Caldwell. Things are about to get ugly.
01:09:50Eleanor's finished. Once you cross the Caldwells, you're out.
01:09:54Is that the famous Caldwell heiress?
01:09:59My son, you could do worse than marrying her.
01:10:02Mother!
01:10:03Alright, alright. You were made for Lady Thunder. That's the one you deserve.
01:10:09Sylvia.
01:10:11Thank God you're here.
01:10:13Seriously, Winston?
01:10:15One girl, you crumble.
01:10:17Thaddeck, move!
01:10:18So, you fell apart.
01:10:21First, you steal her.
01:10:27Then you get our stores.
01:10:29And fire my brother.
01:10:31Tell me, are you fearless or just an idiot?
01:10:35Why do I have to choose either?
01:10:37Are you that rattled?
01:10:39Good.
01:10:41Let's see how brave you are.
01:10:43Sylvia, don't!
01:10:44I don't!
01:10:47Sebastian, you're my fiancé and you're defending her?
01:10:50I never agreed to marry you.
01:10:52I came here tonight to talk.
01:10:54To build something better.
01:10:56Better?
01:10:58You call destroying our family legacy better?
01:11:05Fine.
01:11:06You want something better?
01:11:10Neil.
01:11:11Both of you.
01:11:12And beg me for it.
01:11:17That's enough.
01:11:18Enough!
01:11:19I've only gotten started.
01:11:21By the time tonight's gala ends, Whitmore won't even exist.
01:11:25Miss Caldwell, you can't do this.
01:11:28You promised to back our rise into the thundership home.
01:11:31You promised Sebastian would marry me.
01:11:34Looks like we're breaking promises tonight.
01:11:36Do you hear that?
01:11:37Neil!
01:11:38Marry her!
01:11:39Don't drag this family down with you.
01:11:41You're trying to doom us all, you ungrateful bastard!
01:11:45What's the matter with you two, Sebastian?
01:11:48Too proud of Neil?
01:11:50Looks like...
01:11:52You're the one who should be me.
01:11:54Oh my god!
01:11:55She's insane!
01:11:56She's totally insane!
01:11:57Oh my god.
01:11:58Sylvia?
01:11:59Are you hurt?
01:12:00Oh!
01:12:01Do I look fine to you, idiot?
01:12:03You bitch!
01:12:04No one humiliates me like this!
01:12:05Oh, well there's a first sign for everything.
01:12:06I'm sure that you will get used to it.
01:12:07Kill her!
01:12:08Kill her!
01:12:09This woman desecrated the thundership.
01:12:10This woman desecrated the thundership.
01:12:11Oh my god.
01:12:12Oh my god.
01:12:13Oh my god.
01:12:14Oh my god.
01:12:15Sylvia?
01:12:16Are you hurt?
01:12:17Oh my god.
01:12:18Sylvia?
01:12:19Are you hurt?
01:12:20Do I look fine to you, idiot?
01:12:21You bitch!
01:12:22No one humiliates me like this!
01:12:25Oh, well there's a first sign for everything.
01:12:27I'm sure that you will get used to it.
01:12:30Kill her!
01:12:35This woman desecrated the thunder circle gala.
01:12:38It's not only an insult to me.
01:12:40It's treason against Lady Thunder herself.
01:12:43She will be eliminated.
01:12:46And anyone who stands with her becomes my enemy.
01:12:51This is it.
01:12:52If I stand with Sylvia now, I'll win her and Lady Thunder's favor.
01:12:57Sylvia's right!
01:12:59Eleanor defied Lady Thunder.
01:13:02She deserves to be punished.
01:13:03I second that.
01:13:04She's a disgrace.
01:13:06She defied everything we stand for.
01:13:09We must punish her.
01:13:11Punish her!
01:13:12Punish her!
01:13:13Punish her!
01:13:14Punish her!
01:13:15Punish her!
01:13:16Punish her!
01:13:17Punish her!
01:13:18Punish her!
01:13:21No, you got it all wrong!
01:13:22Everyone saw what she did.
01:13:24You're really gonna defend her?
01:13:25Did you hear that, Eleanor?
01:13:27Game over.
01:13:30You breathe because I allow it.
01:13:32When I say you're finished...
01:13:34Don't you dare.
01:13:35If you do that, I promise I'll kill you.
01:13:37Shut up, Sebastian!
01:13:38Everyone here wants her gone!
01:13:40You'd risk your entire family for a woman like her.
01:13:45You want to ruin yourself?
01:13:46Fine.
01:13:47But don't drag the Whitmores down with you.
01:13:49This is what happens when you defy the Caldwells.
01:13:52So, Eleanor, how do you want to die?
01:13:54Impressive, Sylvia.
01:13:56You twisted the truth so quickly.
01:13:58But you picked the wrong opponent.
01:14:00All of you?
01:14:01You're just insects in my eyes.
01:14:03Still mouthing off?
01:14:05I'll send you straight to Hell.
01:14:12And who exactly are you planning on sending to Hell?
01:14:15General Varelli and Prince Amir?
01:14:17What are you doing here?
01:14:18This is the Thunder Circle's return gala.
01:14:19Big names were expected.
01:14:20Too bad for her.
01:14:21She's even more screwed now.
01:14:22What are you doing here, Varelli?
01:14:23We were just about to take out the trash.
01:14:24So, unless you plan on interfering with Thunder Circle justice, I suggest you let us finish.
01:14:28Sylvia Caldwell.
01:14:30Who exc slapped me?
01:14:31Who were you planning to kill Her?
01:14:32She attacked me in public.
01:14:36She disrupted the gala.
01:14:50Look, I know we fell down.
01:14:52She disrupted the gallop.
01:14:55Look, I know we've had our differences, but don't tell me you're here to steal my credit to impress Lady Thunder.
01:15:03Steal credit? You really have no idea what you've just done.
01:15:08One more word out of you, and the Calvert name is history.
01:15:12You're serious?
01:15:13Deadly.
01:15:14You touch it again, and your entire empire burns to the ground.
01:15:19Because the woman you just threatened is Lady Thunder herself.
01:15:25Lady Thunder!
01:15:32What? Lady Thunder, don't be ridiculous.
01:15:36She's just a gold digger, for God's sake.
01:15:39Exactly! She's a broke cooker. This is just another bluff.
01:15:45She's pulling the same stunts, okay?
01:15:48She already used Lady Thunder to crush the Caldwell stores, and now she's doing the same thing.
01:15:54Sabotaging our alliance. She's a fraud.
01:15:57You all must be delusional.
01:15:59Fine. If you want to stand with a liar, you're all as good as dead.
01:16:04Now I understand just how bold your entire family has become.
01:16:08Do you really think that Morelli, Amir, and the entire Thunder Circle couldn't erase your family over her?
01:16:14The real Lady Thunder could.
01:16:16But tonight, she's gonna destroy you.
01:16:19And all your fake pretenders.
01:16:25Weapons up!
01:16:26Lay a finger on her, and I promise you, none of you will be alive to regret this.
01:16:35You won't want to defend a liar!
01:16:40Stand down!
01:16:44Stand down!
01:16:46That's Adam Lee, Lady Thunder's right hand.
01:16:49He only arrives when she commands it. What is happening?
01:16:52Mr. Lee, finally. Your Lady Thunder is the assistant. Tell them this woman is lying. Tell them she's not Lady Thunder!
01:17:04Right. She's just my ex. How could she be anything? Lady Thunder manages portfolios worth billions. She babysits Orphan.
01:17:14Shut up!
01:17:16For years, Lady Thunder's been running the largest charity in Africa.
01:17:20While you were polishing your shoes, she was saving children.
01:17:25That can't be!
01:17:27No. No. No. No.
01:17:30If that's true, then let her prove it.
01:17:34Lady Thunder is to confirm this circle's billion-dollar investment.
01:17:39And the system's only locked with one thing. Her fingerprints.
01:17:45If she is who she says she is, what am I not?
01:17:48Yeah. Let her prove it.
01:17:50She can't! It's all just empty words.
01:17:53Go ahead, Eleanor.
01:17:55Prove you're the Lady Thunder.
01:17:58Unlock the funds right here.
01:18:01Right now!
01:18:03Eleanor.
01:18:04Eleanor.
01:18:05Are you sure you can confirm this?
01:18:07Yes.
01:18:08Sebastian.
01:18:10It's time for them to see the truth.
01:18:12The truth.
01:18:19حتwealth
01:18:32Highest level authorization. Verified. Eleanor Thunder. Type. CEO of the Thunder Circle. One hundred billion funds activated.
01:18:43My God!
01:18:48My God! She is Lady Thunder. CEO of the Thunder Circle.
01:18:55She's investing a hundred billion dollars in the Sebastian?
01:18:58What?
01:18:58No, this isn't happening.
01:19:00Now you all know who I really am.
01:19:02She really opened it. Eleanor is Lady Thunder.
01:19:09Lady Thunder! Lady Thunder!
01:19:13What now, Sylvia? What else do you have to say?
01:19:25Sylvia!
01:19:30Sylvia!
01:19:32Sylvia!
01:19:33Sylvia!
01:19:33Sylvia!
01:19:34Sylvia!
01:19:35This is it!
01:19:36Call Mom!
01:19:37Be even started!
01:19:38My father will kill me!
01:19:40Take them out.
01:19:42We'll deal with them later.
01:19:44Sylvia!
01:19:45So, Eleanor. It's true. You're the Lady Thunder. The CEO of the Thunder Group and the most powerful woman in the world.
01:19:58It's true. You're the Lady Thunder. The CEO of the Thunder Group and the most powerful woman in the world.
01:20:02Does this even matter anymore?
01:20:03Of course it matters. I would have never broken up with you if I had known things could have been different.
01:20:19Could they have been, Daniel? If I had told you that I was Lady Thunder, would you have believed me? That I was the one who funded you? That I was the one who recommended you for Whitmore Group?
01:20:37We were together for seven years. And you never believed in me.
01:20:43No, that's, that's, that's not true. It-
01:20:46All you ever wanted was a shortcut to the top. I didn't mean anything to you.
01:20:56I, this, this, this, I, I, I don't-
01:20:59You made your choice, Daniel. So every benefit that I gave you, every contact, every dollar, I'm taking it all back.
01:21:13Eleanor, please. We've known each other for years. You've always been like a daughter to me. Whatever misunderstandings are between us, it consists.
01:21:24Your daughter? Weren't you the person that called me a useless girl? Not good enough for your son?
01:21:31It was before. I didn't know. I was stupid and blind. You, you're perfect, Eleanor.
01:21:40So now that I'm Lady Thunder, I'm good enough for your son.
01:21:45You know, ever since I got back from Africa, this has been done.
01:21:51You and Daniel, you're not part of my life anymore.
01:21:55No, please, no. We were together for so long, Eleanor. Please, please forgive me.
01:22:03I wanted a fast track to power. Well, Daniel, I hope you enjoy the fall.
01:22:20Eleanor.
01:22:22Lady Thunder, you and my grandson make a perfect pair, so congratulations.
01:22:31Yes, congratulations to you both.
01:22:35Where's Sebastian? That's interesting. Didn't you expel him from your family?
01:22:41Well, no. That was a mistake. He's always part of my family. He will always be my grandson.
01:22:53I did warn you all, I told you that you would regret casting him aside.
01:22:58Grandma, I've decided I'm stepping away from the Wittenwolves.
01:23:05It's time I've made something that's truly mine, and not in the family's shadow.
01:23:12But Sebastian, you...
01:23:14I think you should be grateful that he's still calling you Grandfather.
01:23:21Don't push your luck, madam.
01:23:27You're right.
01:23:32I will accept whatever choice you make.
01:23:34And respect...
01:23:46Eleanor.
01:23:47As you can see, I'm no longer just a Whitmore.
01:23:53A man starting over.
01:23:58But if you'll have me, I'd like to start it with you.
01:24:05Will you stay by my side?
01:24:08And marry me?
01:24:10Of course I will.
01:24:12And this time, as your wife, investor, and co-founder.
01:24:18I wish I could have done it.
01:24:20But it's just me.
01:24:22I can't do this, you see.
01:24:25I'm sorry I can't be the one to hold you.
01:24:30When the world is on my shoulders.
01:24:33I've got случае...
01:24:34What do you think?
01:24:35I am knowing.
01:24:36What do you think you don't need for me?
01:24:37When I 세상ids...
01:24:39And you can stop us from being desperate for you.
01:24:43In this text.
01:24:45Now look.
01:24:47What are you thinking?
01:24:48How are you laughing?
01:24:49I will float my lado.
01:24:51Can I brave...
01:24:53How are you looking?
01:24:55Into hours?
01:24:57Can I help that you push up the chase?
01:24:58Okay.
01:24:59How are you looking for?
01:25:00There are a few things left over,
