Short filmTranscript
00:00:00For 25 years, I was my husband's ghostwriter.
00:00:04I helped him become a best-selling author.
00:00:06But while I wrote page after page,
00:00:09he betrayed me.
00:00:10He was having an affair with another woman.
00:00:12And how did I find out?
00:00:14A kiss cam that caught them at a concert.
00:00:16He humiliated me in front of the whole world.
00:00:1925 years of marriage.
00:00:22Gone.
00:00:23Just like that.
00:00:27Have fun at the Real Play concert.
00:00:29I wish I could join you.
00:00:30Especially since tonight's our anniversary.
00:00:34It's working, honey.
00:00:35Besides, you don't even like your music.
00:00:37Oh, actually, I do like...
00:00:38Honey, I gotta go.
00:00:39Can't wait for her. Make me something delicious.
00:00:43Okay, honey.
00:00:54Dan, the gentleman's new book is a masterpiece.
00:00:57If I were to guess, I'd say you probably had a pretty heavy part in writing the book.
00:01:01The least it could do is give me some credit, right?
00:01:02Henry, you know I don't like the spotlight.
00:01:04Plus, Jonathan's my husband.
00:01:06What's mine is his, and vice versa.
00:01:07I've already prepared everything for Jonathan to take over to see you.
00:01:10Dan, why do I probably change your family business?
00:01:12I'm just looking over at your gav.
00:01:14We'll talk about this later.
00:01:15Got a run, Henry.
00:01:16Have to call Jonathan to see what time you're coming home.
00:01:17That's weird.
00:01:29Concert should be over by now.
00:01:34Don't you want an easier wife to call?
00:01:36She's so annoying.
00:01:38She can't go a single day without calling, without blab, about some unimportant shit.
00:01:43Hang on, baby.
00:01:45Yes, honey?
00:01:46I just wanted to know if you'd be back soon. Dinner's almost ready.
00:01:49Okay, yes. I will be right home, honey.
00:01:53All right.
00:01:53When was the last time you fucked your wife, Jonathan?
00:01:58It has been years.
00:02:00I can't stand her body anymore.
00:02:02Especially, when I have someone like you.
00:02:05You better be telling the truth.
00:02:06Oh, I swear on that one.
00:02:08You are the only woman on that.
00:02:13Fuck!
00:02:14Okay, either they're having an affair, or just really, really shy.
00:02:18Okay, I gotta, baby, I'm gonna go.
00:02:19I'm gonna catch you later.
00:02:20Okay.
00:02:21You better get closer soon.
00:02:23I'm sick of this.
00:02:24Olivia, I need you to hurry home.
00:02:26I need you to cover me in front of Mom in case something goes wrong.
00:02:28No, I'm gonna explain when I get home.
00:02:29Just hurry home.
00:02:33Hi, honey.
00:02:33I'm back.
00:02:35And just in time, dinner's ready.
00:02:37How was the concert? Was it fun?
00:02:38No, not really. You know, these are what things are.
00:02:41Well, maybe next time I should join you, then it'll be more fun.
00:02:44Oh, come on, let me have your coat.
00:02:51Oh.
00:02:51Oh, Olivia called.
00:02:53She said she'll be back soon.
00:02:55Oh, my God, wait.
00:02:56That looks just like famous author Jonathan Asher.
00:02:59Oh, shit.
00:03:02Honey, did you hear me?
00:03:04Huh?
00:03:04I'm sorry, honey, what did you say?
00:03:06Olivia and Ken, they're gonna be joining us for dinner.
00:03:08Okay, that's great, honey.
00:03:09He may not have taken me to that real play concert, but he got me this beautiful necklace I've chosen a good man to marry.
00:03:33Hey, Dad, it's the big sober anniversary today, right?
00:03:3925 years of marriage.
00:03:40Wow.
00:03:41Don't you think our amazing little housewife deserves a little something?
00:03:44Yes, of course.
00:03:46Anne, my angel, whatever you do, do not forget.
00:03:50You're not just my wife.
00:03:53You're my whole life.
00:03:54Thank you, my love.
00:03:58Hurry up and open it, Mom.
00:03:59A pen.
00:04:08Do you remember the last award ceremony I attended?
00:04:11I couldn't stop thinking about how much you've done for this family.
00:04:14So I picked up this pen in my hotel bed and I wrote about how much I missed you all night long.
00:04:19Wow, Dad, you're such a romantic.
00:04:22I noticed you write the same acknowledgement in every book to my most beloved Anne.
00:04:27Without you, none of this would be possible.
00:04:30You are my muse.
00:04:31Everyone writes acknowledgments to every deal.
00:04:33What you need to learn, Ken, is that for a good wife, love is much more valuable than jewelry.
00:04:40Price is significant.
00:04:42You better not learn that from my dad.
00:04:44Look, I'm not some simple housewife that's going to be satisfied with a hotel pen and a love note.
00:04:49I'm a career woman, and career women appreciate investment pieces.
00:04:57What's wrong with your mother?
00:04:58She's just being dramatic.
00:05:00Look, after all, she's only a housewife.
00:05:04Dad, allow me to raise a glass to you.
00:05:07Ever since you invited me to be your guest at your award ceremony, I actually have a contract at a Fortune 500 company.
00:05:13Let me also congratulate you, Mr. Asher, to the next CEO of Roy Publishing.
00:05:18Now, maybe he got that necklace for Olivia.
00:05:24I shouldn't be so quick to jump to conclusions.
00:05:28Anne, is it just me, or does this look kind of like your husband?
00:05:37Is Jonathan cheating on me?
00:05:39Lily Ann, my muse.
00:06:03Happy anniversary.
00:06:04Every book I write is a declaration of my love for you.
00:06:07You deserve only the finest gold and gems to adorn your precious body.
00:06:11Lily Ann.
00:06:13Lily.
00:06:15Anne.
00:06:15To my most beloved Anne.
00:06:18He was never talking about me.
00:06:20Who is this woman?
00:06:21How could you use the book that I wrote to proclaim your love for another woman?
00:06:31What is wrong with you, woman?
00:06:33Is this the work you've been so busy with?
00:06:35Who the hell is Lily Ann?
00:06:38Did you go through my things?
00:06:39This is an invasion of my privacy.
00:06:40Oh, you're really going to turn this back around on me when you were the one who brought evidence of you're a fairy to our home?
00:06:44Lillian and I are professional acquaintances.
00:06:47We discuss art and literature.
00:06:48Every book I write is a declaration of my love for you.
00:06:52I shall ensure that only the finest gold and gems adorn your precious body.
00:06:56That is a literary reference, and that is something you would not understand.
00:06:58I suppose you're going to tell me that she isn't necessary to discuss your work dress and lazy laundry.
00:07:02You're an unstable postcard, and you're ruining our anniversary, and I am not going to just sit here and listen to your insane accusations.
00:07:09I'll be in my study.
00:07:10You don't know you don't.
00:07:14You are going to stand there.
00:07:15You are going to explain everything to me.
00:07:16Mom, calm down.
00:07:17This is all a big misunderstanding.
00:07:19Okay, Lily Ann is a good person.
00:07:21Her and dad have a professional relationship.
00:07:22You know her?
00:07:24You're going to defend some other woman?
00:07:26Mom, Lily Ann is a literary agent at Roy Publishing House.
00:07:29Her and dad work together.
00:07:30It's her job.
00:07:31Look, I get it.
00:07:32You've been a stay-at-home mom my whole life.
00:07:34Obviously, you don't know how the publishing world works.
00:07:36Wait a second.
00:07:39How long have you known about that?
00:07:42Olivia, you're my daughter.
00:07:44I carried you inside of me for nine months.
00:07:46I gave up everything for you.
00:07:48And as thanks, you've been helping your father hide his affair from you.
00:07:50Let go!
00:07:51Clearly, you watch too many soap operas, and they build your head with crazy ideas.
00:07:55My own baby calling me crazy.
00:07:59Is that what you think, too?
00:08:01That I'm just some silly housewife with my head full of conspiracies?
00:08:04That I would stir up trouble for no reason?
00:08:05Well, it does seem like that's what ruined our anniversary.
00:08:09So, darling, maybe you should stick to the housework.
00:08:12Let us deal with the thinking.
00:08:14Stick to the housework.
00:08:15As if I haven't given up 25 years of my life for the both of you.
00:08:18To keep you happy and healthy and fed.
00:08:21Did those pants fold themselves and jump on into your drawer?
00:08:24Did those shoes shine themselves?
00:08:26Three meals a day for 25 years?
00:08:30These hands have been soaked in detergent and grease and quilt.
00:08:34Every day you two come home and you kick up your feet just knowing everything will be cared for.
00:08:38That I have taken care of every little detail.
00:08:41But for me?
00:08:42For the past 25 years, I have worked around the clock like a goddamn maid.
00:08:47Have I ever gotten a break?
00:08:49Ever!
00:08:49So first you're mad about some imaginary affair.
00:08:55Then you're mad about how you have chosen to spend your life.
00:09:00Your stay-at-home mom and a housewife.
00:09:03Cooking, cleaning, raising the kids.
00:09:05That's the job.
00:09:05That's what you're supposed to do?
00:09:06What do you want us to give you a medal?
00:09:08You're right.
00:09:09I did choose this life.
00:09:10And I have done my best to live up to my duties as a wife.
00:09:13So shouldn't you live up to your duties as a husband?
00:09:16At the very least, you should be faithful in your marriage.
00:09:18The one that should be faithful is the one that depends on the other's paycheck.
00:09:22My God.
00:09:24How could you say something so hurtful?
00:09:26You want to embarrass yourself?
00:09:28In front of your daughter?
00:09:30Her husband?
00:09:31For 25 years, I have been working my ass off.
00:09:37While you have been sitting here indulging in a life of luxury.
00:09:40You should be grateful.
00:09:41Between the two of us, who should really be grateful?
00:09:43Have you forgotten who helped take you from a nameless writer to a best-selling author?
00:09:48Mom, I think you need to calm down.
00:09:50Oh, I'm calm.
00:09:52Your father's the one who needs to watch himself.
00:09:54Are you threatening me?
00:09:56I'm reminding you.
00:09:57I'm the one who wrote all of those books.
00:10:01What, you gonna go out there?
00:10:03Tell the whole world you wrote my collected works.
00:10:04Who is gonna believe?
00:10:06A housewife.
00:10:07Especially one that's gone mad, which you clearly have.
00:10:09I'll just show them my manuscripts.
00:10:10All of them in my handwriting for all of your novels.
00:10:14The manuscripts.
00:10:15God, I bet that's something you keep locked up safe and sound, huh?
00:10:18God forbid something should happen to the manuscripts.
00:10:21You.
00:10:23No.
00:10:23No.
00:10:24You burned my make-up scripts.
00:10:36I put 25 years of my heart into those.
00:10:38It wasn't Dad.
00:10:40Mom.
00:10:41It was me.
00:10:43And if you come and say anything, I'm gonna go and tell the press that you're a liar.

00:17:40And everything's been prepared. I'll wait your instructions. Thank you Henry
00:17:45Jonathan, we built this house together from the ground up. We've been through thick and thin together for 25 years
00:17:55Do you really want to demolish it all? You said I was your life
00:18:00But then you turned around and embraced another woman
00:18:04Was everything a lie?
00:18:07I'm willing to sacrifice everything for my family, but I will not tolerate betrayal
00:18:12Today I will tell you the whole truth. It will be your very last chance
00:18:30What's the meaning of this
00:18:35Jonathan it's exactly what you wanted in we're getting a divorce
00:18:41Are you sure about this oh, I've already signed the papers
00:18:53So I was willing to try and save our marriage, but you've already written it off
00:18:57Henry go ahead and announce his position as CEO, but I will be having one condition
00:19:01I'll be taking over as chairwoman again
00:19:03Therefore any hiring that's done such as CEO will require my approval
00:19:08Are you in such a hurry to kick me out?
00:19:12What a shame
00:19:14I was thinking about giving you all a second chance. Oh, stop bluffing. Your truth is you could come in here. You could crawl
00:19:20Hey, me
00:19:21I never let you back in this house
00:19:23Mom, it's one thing to throw a tantrum at home, but it's a different thing entirely to cause the scene at the company
00:19:28My dad is a public figure. You almost destroyed his career and you think he's going to be willing to reconcile
00:19:33Exactly and you shouldn't have tried to expose mr
00:19:36Asher for using a ghostwriter he might have let you say and write more books for him
00:19:43Jonathan you know deep down inside that without me you will never write another word
00:19:48Do you really think that I need to rely on writing for a living?
00:19:52Soon the entire company will be mine. So you really think that you'll be unstoppable once you're CEO
00:19:57Is that why you're in such a hurry to get rid of me? The faithful wife who stood by your side through thick and thin
00:20:04And trade me in for some shiny new toy?
00:20:07What or who I play with is none of your business
00:20:10I have kept a roof over your head for years. I can forgive your ungratefulness
00:20:15But I cannot forgive you stabbing me in the back during the most pivotal moment of my career
00:20:21I mean, how am I supposed to stay with such a vile woman by my side? What on earth are you talking about?
00:20:26I have never stabbed you in the back
00:20:28Without me you would still be an unpublished wannabe and not the next CEO of Roy Publishing
00:20:33Your storytelling skills have really gone down the drain
00:20:36Mom, you should really stop with the soap opera shit. Like what's next? You're gonna tell us you're a wealthy heiress?
00:20:42You need to stop saying this idiotic stuff or people are gonna think you're a joke
00:20:46That's right
00:20:48I'm a joke
00:20:50A joke for being so blind for choosing a selfish, brilliant man to be my husband like him
00:20:56Grab me a thankless daughter like you for having a pushover for a son-in-law
00:21:01You're right, Olivia
00:21:03How could I have spent 25 years of my life catering to you ungrateful liars? I must have been delusional
00:21:12I'll sign the divorce papers
00:21:14From now on I have no connection to this family
00:21:27Wait
00:21:31What are you doing?
00:21:32You can't just get a divorce like that
00:21:35This is a supplemental document you must agree to its terms dad's assets aren't pocket change
00:21:41You can't just take half especially since they'll eventually come to me
00:21:45How can you be so cold?
00:21:48First you're kicking me out and now you want me to leave empty-handed
00:21:52Olivia
00:21:53You're my daughter
00:21:55Don't you have any sympathy for me?
00:21:56I'm not like you mom
00:21:57I'm a career woman
00:21:59Don't take it personally
00:22:01She always looks too emotional
00:22:03Why does everyone in this family look down on me?
00:22:06I've taken care of you both for 25 years
00:22:08I've given you everything that I had
00:22:10Mom, you didn't do shit for 25 years
00:22:12So what?
00:22:12You cooked us a few meals
00:22:14You didn't earn a single cent for this family
00:22:16Dad was the one who consistently worked enslaved and earned every penny that we put into this house
00:22:24Not you
00:22:26Did you ever stop to think about why Roy Publishing House gave your father a chance?
00:22:30Why they groomed him for all of these years?
00:22:33Well obviously because dad is incredibly talented
00:22:37Dad is about to become the CEO of Roy Publishing House
00:22:41He'll have stocks worth tens of millions of dollars
00:22:45And if he even gave half to a housewife like you
00:22:50He may as well throw all that money in the fire
00:22:52Jonathan
00:22:59Is this the way you feel too?
00:23:01That you earned everything for this family?
00:23:04I had nothing to do with it
00:23:06I want to hear you say it yourself
00:23:09You
00:23:10Haven't contributed anything
00:23:14I'll tell you what
00:23:15I'll give you a little bit of alimony about your divorce
00:23:18But
00:23:18As far as what's in this house
00:23:23You don't get anything
00:23:28Oh my what a generous offer
00:23:32Roy Publishing House gave you everything
00:23:36Made you a best-selling author
00:23:38Gave you this huge house
00:23:39A fancy car
00:23:40And you're still saying that it had nothing to do with me
00:23:45Fine give me that paper
00:23:46I'll sign whatever you want
00:24:06Ann I knew this would happen
00:24:08I'll be there soon
00:24:09Jonathan
00:24:10Olivia
00:24:11Ken
00:24:12The way you've treated me today has destroyed any love that I still had left for this family
00:24:16But you've also
00:24:18Destroyed your futures
00:24:20Oh boo hoo here you go again with the soap opera stuff
00:24:24I think we're done here hurry up and leave
00:24:32Oh
00:24:33Now that must be the CEO right now
00:24:38God I bet Henry's coming in person to announce the transfer of power
00:24:41That old son of a gun he's never got any patience doesn't he
00:24:44See the CEO himself came in person to one of the files
00:24:48Well since the CEO is coming with such good news
00:24:52I suppose you better hurry and let him in
00:24:54Come quick Mr. Asher I think it's for you
00:24:56So you're Lillianne
00:25:06I'm sorry have we met?
00:25:08No
00:25:09But I've seen your noteworthy photos
00:25:13Lily
00:25:14Well what brings you here?
00:25:16Yeah Lily we weren't expecting you to stop by
00:25:17Well of course I had to come by and celebrate with you all
00:25:19Congratulations on becoming the CEO of the Roy Publishing House
00:25:23Oh my god
00:25:39Oh my god
00:25:41Congrats dad
00:25:42You've come at just the right time Lily
00:25:44Mr. Asher is now finally divorced
00:25:47You and dad were meant to be the stroke of fate
00:25:50Is this true?
00:25:52It's true honey
00:25:53I finally severed all times with that miserable and true
00:25:56Then we have two things to celebrate
00:25:59We can keep the festivities going
00:26:02Well that is the best gift any man can get
00:26:11Lily from now on you're a member of the family
00:26:15You should just move in already
00:26:17Yes we've already emptied all the drawers for you
00:26:20Don't you think you're all celebrating a bit prematurely
00:26:23Jonathan do you really think that your CEO now just because your mistress brought you some cheap champagne
00:26:28That's enough Anne I've already told you Lily is not just a mistress
00:26:32Oh well that's right she's a literary agent
00:26:36So I'm sure that she's here on official business
00:26:43I think we all know what kind of work she does
00:26:48Jealous hag
00:26:51Don't worry Mr. Asher
00:26:54Let her say what she wants
00:26:55I am here on official business and the truth always prevails
00:27:00That's right
00:27:01Yeah
00:27:01You're just a junior agent at Roy Publishing aren't you?
00:27:04Are you even qualified to make this kind of announcement?
00:27:06Because I was under the impression that Henry Harper the CEO was the only one with that kind of authority
00:27:13You stupid housewife
00:27:15You don't understand what happens in the professional world
00:27:18The CEO is a very busy man
00:27:21And so I am entrusted to deliver this announcement
00:27:24Hmm, did he really entrust you with this announcement?
00:27:27Well then, why don't we just go ahead and give him a call to confirm
00:27:31Mom, stop embarrassing yourself
00:27:39Why would a housewife like you have the CEO's number?
00:27:42Roy Publishing House has tens of thousands of employees
00:27:45Do you really expect the CEO to do everything himself?
00:27:47Sweet Lillian is one of his top agents
00:27:50And she absolutely has the authority to come here and notify us
00:27:53I wasn't talking to you
00:27:56You're just starting off
00:27:57You only have a few clients, don't you dear?
00:27:59What do you know about how an elite publishing company works?
00:28:02I know more than you do
00:28:04What do you think real work is?
00:28:06Going out and buying groceries or doing the laundry?
00:28:09Please, just stop mom, you're embarrassing yourself
00:28:12Be gentler to your mother, Olivia
00:28:15Oh, and you know, I completely understand where you're coming from
00:28:19You've been in the house for so long
00:28:22Of course you're a little ignorant
00:28:24I really do take pity on you
00:28:27But now it's time for someone more
00:28:29What? Did you take over as one of the house?
00:28:32I'm lucky to have found one
00:28:36Dad, I'm so happy for you too
00:28:38With your reputation and Lily's business acumen
00:28:41You guys are a match made in heaven
00:28:47Johnny, the CEO
00:28:49He must be checking in to see you before the good news yet
00:28:51Hurry up, answer it
00:28:53Yeah, and put it on speaker so someone can hear what the CEO really has to say
00:28:56Hello, Mr. Harper
00:28:59Yeah, I told you it could be in a meeting with HR
00:29:01Where the hell do you want off to, you idiot?
00:29:09Hi, Mr. Harper, I'm at Mr. Asher's house
00:29:12I told you to stop that meeting with HR
00:29:14Did you skip out in work hours?
00:29:15Didn't you take to inform Mr. Asher?
00:29:17I told you I would personally inform him
00:29:19You are just an agent
00:29:22What right do you have doing my job for me?
00:29:24I'm sorry, Mr. Harper, I just thought I'd pick the initiative
00:29:27I'll be there soon
00:29:29Stay right where you are
00:29:30Uh, yes, sir
00:29:40What's wrong?
00:29:40Yeah, the CEO didn't sound too happy
00:29:44Nothing's wrong
00:29:45I was just in such a recognition
00:29:47Good news
00:29:48I completely forgot that Mr. Harper actually wanted to personally tell you
00:29:53So he's actually on his lane
00:29:55Whoa, whoa
00:29:55The CEO is personally coming to my house to announce me as his successor?
00:30:01But it's like I said, you didn't have that authority
00:30:03If the CEO is coming here to congratulate Dad personally
00:30:08I think he respects him
00:30:09Of course he does
00:30:10Your father is a best-selling author and renowned in the industry
00:30:15It's only fitting that he succeeds as an ex-CEO
00:30:18Oh, my, my, my
00:30:20I think you're all mistaken
00:30:22You see, the CEO is only coming here because the chairwoman asked him to
00:30:26Jonathan's appointment as CEO?
00:30:29Well, ultimately that decision lies with her
00:30:31What chairwoman?
00:30:33Lily, does Roy Publishing House even have a chairwoman?
00:30:37Not that I know of
00:30:39Well, who is she?
00:30:41Like she even knows
00:30:43Oh, but I do
00:30:45The chairwoman of Roy Publishing is me
00:31:01Drop the act, Mom
00:31:03Like, do you even know what a chairwoman does?
00:31:05Look, she probably asked chat GPT
00:31:09And please, you gotta stop flaunting your ignorance
00:31:12When we were younger, we called it naivete
00:31:13But now that you're old and washed up and haggard
00:31:16It's just plain foolishness
00:31:19She probably read so many trashy novels
00:31:20She can't even keep up with reality anymore
00:31:23She's stuck in her own fantasy world
00:31:25Mmm, that's what it is
00:31:27She's delusional
00:31:28Okay, yeah
00:31:29I can play along with that
00:31:33Greetings, chairwoman Anne
00:31:39They're laughing at me now
00:31:41But soon they'll see
00:31:42Oh, pardon me, chairwoman Anne
00:31:59Are you going to reject my appointment as CEO?
00:32:02Are you going to strip me of everything I've ever earned?
00:32:05Are you gonna kick me out of Roy Publishing Group?
00:32:07Yes, chairwoman Anne
00:32:13Aren't you going to blacklist me from the publishing world?
00:32:15And shutter my company?
00:32:17Are you going to make your ungrateful daughter regret everything?
00:32:22Oh, no, no, no
00:32:23Maybe Anne wants to be treated like a queen
00:32:27In which case, I will be your butler
00:32:30And will be your maid
00:32:33Let us atone for our sins
00:32:34Oh, and what about me?
00:32:38What would you like me to do?
00:32:40Go ahead and laugh
00:32:42The CEO will be here soon
00:32:43He'll confirm whether or not I'm telling the truth
00:32:46All right, that's enough
00:32:47Playtime's over
00:32:48Now get the hell out of here
00:32:50Or I'm going to remove you myself
00:32:53Stop
00:33:00Henry, you old son of a gun
00:33:02You didn't even tell me you're coming over here
00:33:05My daughter, Olivia
00:33:07Her husband, Kenneth
00:33:08And who was that woman over there on your floor?
00:33:10Well, that is my ex
00:33:11A silly woman
00:33:12In fact, we were just getting rid of her
00:33:13Because she was trying to tarnish my reputation
00:33:15Let alone Roy Publishing House
00:33:17Kicking her out?
00:33:18The whole family decided
00:33:19We support my father
00:33:20And we won't let anyone tarnish his good name
00:33:22Related or not
00:33:23That sounds like personal business to me
00:33:32I'm here to talk strictly about company business
00:33:34So let's stay focused on that
00:33:37Yes, great idea, Henry
00:33:39Let's talk business
00:33:40No wonder you're the leader of the company, Mr. Harper
00:33:42Always kind of to the chase
00:33:44Jonathan, as CEO of Roy Publishing House
00:33:47I've decided to step down
00:33:49I will now make my formal succession announcement
00:33:51I, Henry Harper
00:33:54Due to personal circumstances
00:33:56Step down as CEO of Roy Publishing Company
00:33:59If you are willing to secede me for this position, Mr. Asher
00:34:02I'll need you to sign these documents
00:34:06Oh, Henry
00:34:08My friend
00:34:11Thank you for trusting me
00:34:14Congrats, Dad
00:34:15Johnny, the moment we've been waiting for is finally here
00:34:23Thank you for coming over so quickly and for shedding some light on the truth
00:34:27Just now, someone was spreading a rumor that you don't have the ultimate decision-making power
00:34:33And that they made up some ridiculous chairwoman position
00:34:36Such a trashy rumor
00:34:38In all my years at the company, you are the only one with the absolute authority
00:34:43I mean, have you ever had a chairwoman?
00:34:4925 years ago, the chairwoman stepped down from her position and gave me full authority to this whole company
00:34:54Did you hear that, Mom?
00:34:56This is real life, not some soap opera
00:34:58Miss chairwoman, it's time to wake up, honey
00:35:02Stop laughing
00:35:07Johnny, we need to be the perfect hosts to Mr. Harper
00:35:11And get our unwelcome guest out
00:35:13Yes, darling, you are correct
00:35:15Mr. Harper, forgive us for this unsightly mess
00:35:18Ken, Olivia, get her out of here
00:35:19Mom, you need to leave
00:35:21Step away from her
00:35:27I'm not done speaking
00:35:2925 years ago, when I took over this company, there was no active chairwoman
00:35:32But as of today, as of right now, I am reinstating the chairwoman
00:35:37Who have total control over the Roy Publishing House company
00:35:39And you must all obey that chairwoman's orders, including the CEO
00:35:45What?
00:35:46Henry, I don't understand, why the change of plans?
00:35:50Where did this new chairwoman come from?
00:35:52I haven't heard a thing about her
00:35:54Unless
00:35:59No
00:36:01That's impossible
00:36:04But there's no way
00:36:06This is a joke
00:36:06A terrible one at that
00:36:08Going by the looks on your faces
00:36:10You've already guessed who it is
00:36:12That's right
00:36:13Miss Ann Roy will be reinstated as the chairwoman of this company
00:36:19Madam Chairwoman
00:36:28Welcome back, Chairwoman
00:36:34Ann isn't qualified for this
00:36:35Wait, Ann is completely unqualified for this position
00:36:38Is Roy publishing a joke?
00:36:39Are you telling me that the woman that was baking pies in the kitchen yesterday
00:36:44Is a chairwoman of a company worth billions?
00:36:46Oh my god, this cannot be true
00:36:48No
00:36:49Mr. Harper, there must be a mistake
00:36:52She's just a housewife who cooks and cleans all day
00:36:54She ruined the company
00:36:56Silence
00:36:57The Roy family owns Roy Publishing Company
00:36:59And it's only natural that Ann, the sole heiress to the company, become the chairwoman
00:37:04None of you have any right to question her
00:37:06What?
00:37:15My wife of 25 years?
00:37:18The woman who cooked and cleaned for me?
00:37:20Is the sole heiress of the Roy family fortune?
00:37:24Jonathan, I told you you'd live to regret the way you treated me today
00:37:27Mom, how could you hide this from us for so long?
00:37:32We're your own flesh and blood
00:37:35Were you afraid of splitting your assets with us?
00:37:40Don't use your twisted logic to put words in my mouth
00:37:43The only reason I hid my identity was to protect your father's fragile ego
00:37:47Jonathan, when I first met you, you were just a nameless aspiring writer
00:37:51I fell in love with your passion
00:37:53We built this life together
00:37:55I supported you from the sidelines every step of the way
00:37:57And helped you reach the position you're in now
00:37:59I look forward to the day when I could tell you my true identity
00:38:03When you would finally become the CEO
00:38:05I never thought that you could be so cruel
00:38:09To the loyal, loving wife who stayed by your side and made you into what you are
00:38:13It took me 25 years to see your true nature
00:38:17I feel like a fool
00:38:18But I see it now
00:38:20Henry
00:38:21Yes, Chairwoman Roy
00:38:23What would you like me to do?
00:38:28Give them their wish
00:38:29From this day forward, I will have no connection to the Ashers
00:38:33Our relationships will remain strictly business
00:38:36Jonathan, I hereby rescind your position as CEO to Roy Publishing House
00:38:40I cannot be led by a fraud
00:38:42Furthermore, this company is cancelling all contracts with you
00:38:46Your book contracts, cancelled
00:38:48Your advances, rescinded
00:38:50We expect full repayment
00:38:52Lillian, your depraved morals do not align with our company values
00:38:56You built your career by seducing a married man
00:38:58You're fired
00:39:00In addition, my personal evaluation will be circulated throughout the industry
00:39:03You will never work in publishing again
00:39:10Olivia
00:39:14Mom, I'm your daughter
00:39:17From now on, you are not allowed to use Roy Publishing House's name for personal gain
00:39:23If you try to leverage our relationship for future contracts, I will bury your company in lawsuits
00:39:28Mom, if you cut me off, I'll go bankrupt within the year
00:39:30Do you really want to ruin your only daughter?
00:39:33Please, Anne? Olivia is your flesh and blood? Why are you treating her like this?
00:39:36If she wasn't my daughter, I would have sued her already
00:39:39Instead, I am generously giving her the opportunity to prove that she is the self-made businesswoman she proclaims to be
00:39:46Olivia, I took care of you for 25 years
00:39:49I'm not going to spoil you any longer
00:39:51Mom, you're going to ruin us
00:39:53Dad, don't stand there, fix it
00:39:56Johnny, you have the teller
00:39:58We only had a professional relationship
00:40:00Please tell her to have mercy on me
00:40:02Anne
00:40:05Don't tell me you have the audacity to keep defending your mistress
00:40:08What?
00:40:10I'm
00:40:11I won't plead on their behalf, but
00:40:13Anne
00:40:14I'm just hurt that our family has come to this
00:40:16If you had told the truth, it never would have gotten to this point
00:40:18I just wanted to grow old with you
00:40:20I just want to live my life with you
00:40:21You can take your fake feelings and shove them
00:40:24This faithful husband act, it disgusts me
00:40:27Did you forget about this little thing that you did, hmm?
00:40:37How about these, hmm?
00:40:39Did you forget about these?
00:40:45How dare you say you love me with the same mouth that kisses your mistress?
00:40:49Even thinking about growing old with someone like you makes me sick
00:40:54I'll say it one last time
00:40:56From this day forward
00:40:58This family and I are through
00:41:01Anne, this is Asher
00:41:02From now on, you will refer to me as Chairwoman or Miss Roy
00:41:24I'm done for
00:41:30My career in the publishing industry is completely ruined
00:41:34Jonathan
00:41:35We are completely out of money
00:41:38And our careers
00:41:40What are we going to do?
00:41:42Dad, you have to help me
00:41:43All of my contracts have been cancelled
00:41:45The debt collectors are already banging down my door
00:41:50Dad, what are we going to do?
00:41:52Hurry up to think of something
00:41:54Stop
00:42:00It's all right, let him speak
00:42:04Anne, we have been family for a long time
00:42:08How can you be so cruel to us?
00:42:13Lillian and I, we are co-workers
00:42:15We get floored in a little bit, that is it
00:42:17Olivia is your daughter
00:42:18You birthed her
00:42:20What, you're just going to push us aside for some silly misunderstanding?
00:42:23How can you live with yourself?
00:42:24How dare you put blame on Anne?
00:42:26She sacrificed the years of her life taking care of you
00:42:28That little mistress and daughter trying to plan to kick her out of the life she built?
00:42:32Don't you have any conscience?
00:42:33I promise you that if you do anything to hurt Anne
00:42:38Then I will make sure that you pay
00:42:41I understand
00:42:44Now, don't worry
00:42:47I didn't make sure the publishing house is going to drop
00:42:48And if you and people here are going to cause any more disturbances
00:42:52I'll be forced to call security
00:42:57We are already leaving
00:42:58Henry, did I go too far?
00:43:25And you've done everything for them
00:43:31It's them who let you go
00:43:41To get rid of Jonathan's influence, I think we should have a board meeting
00:43:44To announce your return
00:43:46I agree
00:43:46And then you need to go public and let him know that you were his ghostwriter
00:43:49And get your copyrights back
00:43:53Let me think about it
00:43:54Well, the Nobel Foundation article
00:43:55Holden, this is the front of the men this year
00:43:57We cannot let him keep making money off false pretenses
00:43:59It's time to take back what's yours
00:44:01Henry
00:44:02I said just give me some time to think
00:44:04Anne, you're too nice
00:44:06You might get in again
00:44:07But Jonathan won't
00:44:12What kind of a psychopath hides their identity for decades?
00:44:15You know what?
00:44:15I bet she did this just so she doesn't have to share her assets with us
00:44:18She was just a boring housewife mopping floors yesterday
00:44:21But now she's the chairwoman of a top publishing company?
00:44:24This must be a joke
00:44:29Oh god
00:44:30Hold your horses
00:44:31Let me disrupt from this car
00:44:32Anne is just a housewife
00:44:35She's got no experience
00:44:36There's no way she can handle the position of chairwoman
00:44:38Surely the company must be falling apart right now
00:44:41What are you planning?
00:44:45Well, I've received an invitation from the Nobel Prize Foundation
00:44:54You two are looking at the future winner of a Nobel Prize in literature
00:44:58And when I take the stage and give my acceptance speech
00:45:01I am going to announce that Anne and Henry are having a scandalous affair
00:45:06And when your reputations are completely destroyed and the company's stocks crashed
00:45:10The board members are going to be banking to take over
00:45:15Anne, your decision to reverse Jonathan's appointment to CEO has already affected this company's stocks
00:45:30We understand the Roy family holds the majority of shares
00:45:33But you're still responsible for the rest of the shareholders
00:45:37We members of the board wish for you to resign as shareholders
00:45:43You're trying to fire Anne?
00:45:45Is this because of Jonathan's meddling?
00:45:47Disgusting, old man
00:45:48The revenue from Mr. Asher's books accounts for about 40% of this company's profits
00:45:54Additionally, since he is poised to win the Nobel Prize, his market value is about to skyrocket soon
00:46:01We cannot lose a cash cow like Jonathan Asher
00:46:05Ms. Roy must make up for this loss
00:46:08I'll take back the copyrights
00:46:17How is that possible?
00:46:19Who in their right mind would ever hand over a golden egg to their ex-wife?
00:46:27I am more than just Jonathan's ex-wife
00:46:30I am Anne Roy
00:46:32I have achieved everything that I have ever set my mind to
00:46:34And I could have done so without relying on Jonathan for a single penny
00:46:38I admire your courage
00:46:40But our trust comes with a price
00:46:46Okay
00:46:52Sign this agreement stating that if you do not get back the copyrights
00:46:56All of your stock holdings will be turned over to us
00:47:03Anne, you can't do that
00:47:04I am Roy hereby agree to the terms of this agreement
00:47:11I am Roy hereby agree to the terms of this agreement
00:47:15In 24 hours I will take back the copyrights
00:47:17I am Roy hereby agree to the terms of this agreement
00:47:22In 24 hours I will take back the copyrights
00:47:27If I cannot, I shall willingly forfeit the entirety of my shares
00:47:33it's a deal
00:47:39we look forward to the results
00:47:43Dan, that was foolish
00:47:52Jonathan's an egotistical little man
00:47:54he'll stop at nothing to save his reputation
00:47:57he's never going to admit you were his ghostwriter
00:47:58how are you going to get those copyrights back?
00:48:01I have the evidence in my possession
00:48:03and also, I have a backup plan
00:48:05that's where you come in
00:48:06tomorrow is the Nobel Prize Award ceremony
00:48:09I'll show Jonathan what a real regret looks like
00:48:12I'm waiting on the lab results
00:48:21I'll be waiting to hear from you
00:48:33Jonathan Asher?
00:48:43I knew it was you
00:48:44I knew it was you
00:48:56congratulations to the winner of the Nobel Prize in Literature

00:49:27in my humble opinion
00:49:29only a woman as beautiful as Lillian
00:49:31is worthy of an author as talented as you
