00:00:00Ma'am, stay with me. We've got you.
00:00:11Doctor, please save my baby.
00:00:15Please save my baby.
00:00:21I'm sorry, Miss Vaughn. Your condition is critical.
00:00:23Protocol says we have to save you first.
00:00:25No. I've been on bed rest for nearly five months.
00:00:27Over 300 injections to keep my baby alive.
00:00:30My husband, he's waited for this baby for so long.
00:00:33He loves this child more than anything.
00:00:35Doctor, please.
00:00:37We'll do everything we can to save both of you.
00:00:57Congratulations, Miss Vaughn.
00:01:03You just gave birth to a very healthy baby boy.
00:01:07I'll call him Michael.
00:01:12Just like my husband always wanted.
00:01:15Come on, Michael. Let's go find Daddy.
00:01:19Thanks, babe, for making me a dad.
00:01:29You're sure Isabella doesn't know a thing, right?
00:01:33Of course not. No, no. I was very careful when switching the babies.
00:01:37She will treat our son like her own and kiss him and cradle him to sleep.
00:01:43While her real daughter is rotting in a dumpster like yesterday's trash.
00:01:47She will waste years loving our son and then giving him a fruit scent she owns.
00:02:04She needs a coming.
00:02:06This is very important.
00:02:08You have to be sure. Are you absolutely certain that Isabella will never find her own child?
00:02:15Yes. Yes, I promise.
00:02:21Her baby? I dumped it by the trash can where it belongs.
00:02:24She won't last long out there on a rainy day like this.
00:02:28Thanks, babe, for handling that.
00:02:34How long until we're a real family, though?
00:02:37I don't think I can, like, spend days watching you play house with that ugly cow
00:02:42and watching our son play with Mommy.
00:02:44Just hang tight, beautiful.
00:02:47The company's still in that stupid woman's name.
00:02:50Ugh.
00:02:51It's one of her premarital assets.
00:02:53We just have to wait until our son is old enough and then she'll sign over everything to him.
00:02:58And then we can kick her to the curb like garbage.
00:03:00Okay, then you have to promise me one day we will sip champagne in that pathetic loser's mansion.
00:03:06And spend your money like royalty. Kick her out like a dog.
00:03:11I promise.
00:03:13My husband.
00:03:16My assistant. The two people I trusted most.
00:03:21Stabbing me in the back. Swapping my baby.
00:03:25And tearing through my life like vultures.
00:03:31Isabella, you look absolutely radiant, darling.
00:03:34May I hold the baby?
00:03:41Congratulations, you too.
00:03:46Oh my god, he is the most adorable thing I've ever seen in my life.
00:03:49Mikey, ready for your big field trip today? Come on, let's go.
00:04:16Darling, Woody, I thought your day was absolutely packed. I didn't think you'd be back in time for Michael's little trip.
00:04:25Michael is my son, Nathan. I wouldn't miss his first field trip for the world. Of course I am.
00:04:30You're not seriously coming. Are you, Mom?
00:04:33I already told my whole class that my mom's young and super hot.
00:04:39They see you looking like a tired old granny they'll laugh at me.
00:04:45Michael, Michael, you cannot talk to your mother that way, okay?
00:04:49She might look old and a little worn out, but that's because she works very hard for this family. Right?
00:04:58Thanks, Mom. You should probably go back to work or whatever. I've already got Dad and Aunt Ava coming, and that's way better anyway.
00:05:06Oh, don't forget to book that five-star resort. I want the biggest sweet, the one with the hot spring and chocolate fountain. And everything.
00:05:15Don't take everything he says to heart Mrs. Vaughn. He didn't mean it, I'm sure. You know your son adores you. Deep down.
00:05:25Of course, I'll forgive my son. But, Ava, I thought you were supposed to be at a meeting today. Why are you here?
00:05:37Yes! You know, I was. Um, sorry, so basically...
00:05:42So, well, I called her. Yes.
00:05:44You know, I knew that you were busy at work all day, and I figured Ava could come over and help Michael pack her on his trip.
00:05:50You know I'm helpless with these things.
00:05:53I see.
00:05:58Honestly, I can't thank you enough for all the support you give me at work, Mrs. Vaughn.
00:06:02So when Mr. Vaughn called me, of course I rushed right over.
00:06:06It's the least I can do after everything you've done for me.
00:06:09Plus, Michael is such an angel. I love spending time with him.
00:06:14You wouldn't mind, would you?
00:06:17Why would I? Hmm.
00:06:23I'm glad he was here around, Balm, because he didn't work.
00:06:26No need to thank me. I'm just doing what any loyal friend would do.
00:06:29Mommy, don't you have that, uh, boring meeting or something you go to?
00:06:34That's right. You have your big board meeting tonight. It's fine. You can go. Uh, Michael will be in great hands with us.
00:06:43What does my little man want Mommy to do?
00:06:46I could stay back if you want and cook you dinner before your big field trip.
00:06:50I want Mommy to go to her meeting. Then Aunt Ava can take me to that fancy restaurant you booked for.
00:06:57Mm-hmm.
00:06:58Michael. Michael absolutely adores you. You know that. He just knows you're so busy with work and doesn't want to be a burden, that's all.
00:07:07Well, as Michael wishes, I'll return to the office and secure that Michelin reservation for you, please.
00:07:14Take care, babe.
00:07:19What a blessed woman you are. Such a precious boy, devoted husband. Don't you give it a thought. You focus on your work. I'll take care of everything in your home.
00:07:34Hey, buddy. Why don't you go play with your car outside? And Ava and Daddy have some grown-up business to discuss.
00:07:53Hello.
00:07:54Hello.
00:08:00Woo!
00:08:02No.
00:08:04We find any other place to ourselves?
00:08:06I have missed you.
00:08:07I have missed you so much.
00:08:09Wait, wait, wait. I want to take it slow. Savor the moment. I mean, tonight I am dining at a Michelin-starred restaurant, sleepy in a suite that your wife paid for. Oh. And I'm screwing your husband.
00:08:25I can't do too long.
00:08:26It's like you should do a little girl.
00:08:27No.
00:08:28Oh, no.
00:08:29Oh, no.
00:08:30Oh, no.
00:08:31Oh, no.
00:08:32Oh, no.
00:08:33Oh, no.
00:08:34Oh, no.
00:08:35Oh, no.
00:08:36Oh, no.
00:08:37Oh, no.
00:08:38Oh, no.
00:08:39Oh, no.
00:08:40Oh, no.
00:08:41Oh.
00:08:42Oh, no.
00:08:44Oh, no.
00:08:45Hi, Miss Vaughn.
00:08:46I just bought the most exquisite rock lobster.
00:08:49Fifteen hundred a pound, mind you.
00:08:51Allow me to prepare something very special for you and Michael tonight.
00:08:55How kind?
00:09:08Mrs. Vaughan, I have this new business idea I'm excited about.
00:09:13Unfortunately, the startup funds are a bit out of my reach.
00:09:19You have always been so supportive of me.
00:09:22I was wondering if you'd be willing to help out.
00:09:29Sure. No problem.
00:09:32Well then, it's settled. Let's eat.
00:09:43Michael.
00:09:53Your SAT score is coming out soon, right?
00:09:56Yes. Tomorrow.
00:09:58What a big day.
00:10:00I wouldn't miss it for the world.
00:10:02You got this right, little champ.
00:10:04Yeah.
00:10:06Don't worry.
00:10:08I got it.
00:10:13Michael.
00:10:16Still playing that stupid game?
00:10:18Your SAT scores came in and they are embarrassingly low.
00:10:21You're so confident.
00:10:23We spent thousands of dollars on tutors for you,
00:10:26and now you can't even get into community college with this shit.
00:10:34What's the problem?
00:10:35Mom's cash can buy anything.
00:10:37Library donations?
00:10:38Fake scholarships?
00:10:39Problem solved.
00:10:41Your mother will not be around forever to help.
00:10:44She's even thinking about retiring early.
00:10:46Handing your company over to you.
00:10:48How do you expect her to trust you with scores like this?
00:10:52He's not wrong, Michael.
00:10:53Your mother is going to stand by you,
00:10:55but that doesn't give you a free pass.
00:10:57Right?
00:10:58You need to step up and show some drive.
00:10:59You need to prove yourself, Jack.
00:11:01Prove myself?
00:11:03Please.
00:11:04A score isn't everything.
00:11:05I don't need to be some brown-nosing teacher's pet to impress anyone.
00:11:10I have my own secret weapon to take this family business
00:11:13and blow it up even bigger.
00:11:18Behold, my goddess.
00:11:31Vivian Hartley, a mysterious heiress of an insanely rich family
00:11:36and a business prodigy who got into Harvard at 16,
00:11:39started her own company at 18.
00:11:42Her papers are on the front page of every major financial magazine.
00:11:47People are already calling her the next legendary mogul.
00:11:52Might even build an empire bigger than Mom's.
00:11:55Wait, wait, wait.
00:11:56So you're planning to work with her?
00:11:59My evil little genius?
00:12:01Exactly.
00:12:02And who knows?
00:12:03With my killer looks and silver tongue,
00:12:06she might even fall head over heels for me
00:12:09and beg me to marry her.
00:12:11Then, bam, Mom's company merges with her empire
00:12:15and our family legacy gets a whole new level.
00:12:20Fine.
00:12:21I'll make a major donation to Harvard.
00:12:23You'll get in.
00:12:24And once you graduate, I'll hand you the company.
00:12:26Mom, you're the best.
00:12:28You're the best.
00:12:31Oh, you know what?
00:12:32I'm gonna go do the dishes.
00:12:35Babe, I'll go help you.
00:12:39Mom, I'm heading to my room now.
00:12:43Love you.
00:12:44From this day forward, they think I won't suspect a thing.
00:12:57So they're getting way more ballsy.
00:13:14You're right.
00:13:22Your wife is right outside.
00:13:23If she hears us, we'll use everything we've worked for.
00:13:26It's fine.
00:13:27That stupid hand will never figure it out.
00:13:30And once she hands the company over to Michael,
00:13:33I've left you right in front of her.
00:13:41Is everything taken care of?
00:13:42Yes, ma'am.
00:13:44Perfect.
00:13:46Now we just sit back and wait for the final act to begin.
00:14:00Dad? Aunt Ava?
00:14:02Oh, it's you so mean.
00:14:04Oh, Liam, look at you.
00:14:05Are you losing weight?
00:14:06Did your mom give you an allowance, please?
00:14:07I'm great.
00:14:08All right, calm down.
00:14:10You're more excited to see him than his own mother.
00:14:12Sorry, Mrs. Vaughn.
00:14:13You know how much I enjoy Michael.
00:14:15I just got carried away.
00:14:17So, Mom, I'm back from college now.
00:14:20Are you ready to hand over the company like you promised?
00:14:23Sure.
00:14:25I've arranged the press conference.
00:14:26I'll announce everything then.
00:14:32Oh, my God.
00:14:33Come on.
00:14:34I missed you.
00:14:35You're back home.
00:14:36I know, right?
00:14:37The cleaners came right back.
00:14:38Of course.
00:14:39I missed the topless babes.
00:14:40Yeah.
00:14:42I wonder what big news Miss Vaughn has this time.
00:14:45Probably another major announcement, you know?
00:14:47This woman is unstoppable.
00:14:50Look, here comes Miss Vaughn.
00:14:51Thank you all for coming.
00:14:52Effective immediately, I will be stepping down from all of my roles at Vaughn Group.
00:15:04All of my assets and shares will be transferred to Michael Vaughn, who will take over as CEO of Vaughn Group.
00:15:10Seriously?
00:15:34Miss Vaughn's so young, she's already handing everything over to her son?
00:15:37over to her son?
00:15:38No, that is what I call true motherly love.
00:15:42I wish I had a mom like that.
00:15:46Wait, isn't that Miss Vaughn's husband?
00:15:50What's he doing holding hands with another woman?
00:15:52Oh my god, I know her.
00:15:54She's the woman that Miss Vaughn promoted personally.
00:15:56She's her most trustworthy assistant.
00:15:59I have an announcement too.
00:16:02Michael Vaughn is my biological son.
00:16:07Miss Vaughn, thank you for raising my son all these years.
00:16:14But it's time you give him back to me,
00:16:16along with all the assets you just gave him.
00:16:19Right now.
00:16:28Without Miss Vaughn's support, she wouldn't be here today.
00:16:32How could she stab her benefactor in the back like this,
00:16:34sleeping with her husband?
00:16:36Sleeping with her husband?
00:16:37Letting her raise her son as her own?
00:16:40Miss Vaughn just transferred all of her assets,
00:16:42and then she comes here to claim her son.
00:16:45This must have been her twisted plan all along.
00:16:48This woman's pure evil, sinking her claws into Miss Vaughn's
00:16:51fortune like the gold-digging leech that she is.
00:16:53And this sorry excuse of a husband, a spineless, lying scum.
00:16:58Bitch, you were perfect for each other, rotten to the core.
00:17:01I made a mistake that a lot of rich, powerful men make.
00:17:07Married the wrong woman.
00:17:08Big fucking deal.
00:17:10Isabella, you were the picture-perfect image of a wife.
00:17:14Dutiful, dignified, and boring as hell.
00:17:19You're always working, never once thinking about my needs.
00:17:23But Ava, she makes me feel so alive.
00:17:27And she knows how to take care of a man.
00:17:30I do.
00:17:32If you ever really loved me, you'd be grateful
00:17:35that I found a connection like this,
00:17:37because Lord knows, we never had one.
00:17:39So what's your choice, my son, if I may still call you that?
00:17:51Mom, that's the last time I'm calling you that.
00:17:57You might have raised me all those years, sure,
00:17:59but you're not my real mother.
00:18:01Blood doesn't lie.
00:18:03The three of us, we're a family.
00:18:07And you're nothing but an outsider to us.
00:18:09And I'm done playing pretend with an old, washed-up hag like you.
00:18:15It's over.
00:18:16You're broke now.
00:18:17Don't even have a pot to piss in.
00:18:19So why don't you just sign the divorce papers
00:18:25and get the hell out of my life?
00:18:27We both know you were never really worthy of me.
00:18:30Hey, after all you've done for me, all be generous.
00:18:34How about a whole hundred bucks for your monthly pension?
00:18:37That's my sweet boy.
00:18:39Michael Vaughn is an absolute monster.
00:18:42Ms. Vaughn loved him as if he was her own.
00:18:45And she just handed over her entire fortune.
00:18:47And this is how he repays her?
00:18:49Goes and claims some other woman is his mother?
00:18:52And a measly $100 a month?
00:18:54That's downright shameless.
00:18:56Yes, exactly.
00:18:57These three heartless freaks have taken it way too far.
00:19:01Ms. Vaughn, don't give in.
00:19:03Let me expose them.
00:19:04Yeah, don't let them get away with it.
00:19:06Ms. Vaughn, you obviously need legal counsel.
00:19:08Allow me to represent you so we can bring these dirty scumbags to court.
00:19:12Or shut the hell up, all of you, you idiots.
00:19:15What right do you have to stick your noses in our family business?
00:19:20Yeah.
00:19:22Isabella, sign the papers and I'll let you leave with your dignity.
00:19:36Go on.
00:19:36Go on.
00:19:41All right.
00:19:57Oh, my God.
00:19:58Oh, my God.
00:20:00Oh, it's real.
00:20:01It's real.
00:20:02It's real.
00:20:04It's real.
00:20:04She actually signed it.
00:20:08I thought you had a backup plan.
00:20:09Oh, you really had me worried there.
00:20:12You are smart when it comes to business.
00:20:14So what?
00:20:15Your husband?
00:20:16Your son?
00:20:19Your whole life is mine now.
00:20:21Oh, and that billion-dollar mansion, that's ours too now.
00:20:27So enjoy your $100 and get the hell out of our lives.
00:20:32Hold up.
00:20:34You went through all of that trouble to surprise me.
00:20:37So let me return the favor with a gift you'll never forget.
00:20:43Bring it up.
00:20:51Bring it up.
00:20:52Isabella, what game are you playing now?
00:21:01Isabella, I'm warning you.
00:21:03Do not try to pull any shit.
00:21:05It's too late for you to turn things around now.
00:21:07Relax.
00:21:09It's just a little parting gift for my son.
00:21:12It's yours, Michael.
00:21:13You've been my son for over 20 years.
00:21:16And in my heart, you always will be.
00:21:18I only want what's best for you.
00:21:20This is the Aurelian Star, a rare heirloom that my mother gave to me before she passed.
00:21:37This must cost a fortune.
00:21:39Well, at least you finally realized your worth.
00:21:40I mean, an old hag like you could never wear a gem like this.
00:21:42Clearly, it is made for someone like me.
00:21:43What are you talking about, Mom?
00:21:44Only a true goddess like Vivian Hartley is worthy of a gem like this.
00:21:45I'm going to give it to her as a gift.
00:21:46Might even seal the deal on our family.
00:21:47Hell, if I play my cards right, she could even marry me.
00:21:48Just as I expected.
00:21:49They're walking straight into my trap.
00:21:50Hold on.
00:21:51Is this some kind of trick?
00:21:52I've appraised you.
00:21:53I've appraised you.
00:21:54I've appraised you.
00:21:55I've appraised you.
00:21:56I've appraised you.
00:21:57I've appraised you.
00:21:58I've appraised you.
00:21:59I've appraised you.
00:22:00I've appraised you.
00:22:01I've appraised you.
00:22:02I've appraised you.
00:22:03I've appraised you.
00:22:04Clearly, it is made for someone like me.
00:22:06What are you talking about, Mom?
00:22:07Only a true goddess like Vivian Hartley is worthy of a gem like this.
00:22:10I'm going to give it to her as a gift.
00:22:12Might even seal the deal on our family.
00:22:17I've used for years.
00:22:18That's the real deal.
00:22:20The Aurelian star.
00:22:21It's worth a fortune.
00:22:23This is outrageous.
00:22:25You hid something with this kind of value from us for all this time?
00:22:29Where's the honesty?
00:22:30Where is the trust?
00:22:32I guess our relationship really is a joke.
00:22:36Divorcing you is the smartest thing I've ever done.
00:22:39You giving us this diamond is the smartest thing you've ever done.
00:22:42Because a broke bitch like you, a diamond like that, you're just asking for trouble.
00:22:47Has Miss Vaughn lost her mind?
00:22:49Handing over a priceless family heirloom like it's nothing?
00:22:52To those ungrateful leeches?
00:22:54How would she do that?
00:22:55Is she clinging to some fantasy that her husband and the son that she raised for years
00:23:11will come back to her?
00:23:12She's completely lost it.
00:23:13Poor woman.
00:23:14Between the betrayal of her husband and her son?
00:23:19It's shattered her.
00:23:20Isabella, if you're giving up this gem to win back Michael and Nathan, well, you're just,
00:23:27what's the word?
00:23:28Oh yeah, delusional.
00:23:30I mean, I thought when you were helping me back then you were just naive.
00:23:35But now I am seeing you in a whole new light.
00:23:41You were never just naive, were you?
00:23:43No.
00:23:44You were a pathetic, bottom-feeding nobody.
00:23:56Good thing you're not my grandmother.
00:24:00What a disgrace that would be.
00:24:02I'm done with the Vaughn name.
00:24:04I'm going to Weaselton, my father's name.
00:24:08The Vaughn group is no more.
00:24:10I'm going to take the Weaselton group to the next level.
00:24:13Marrying a stupid woman like you and getting tied up with your pathetic family
00:24:19really was the biggest mistake of my life.
00:24:22So why don't you do us all a favor?
00:24:25Disappear and never show your face again.
00:24:29So long, sucker.
00:24:33Goodbye.
00:24:36Miss Vaughn, how does it feel to be abandoned by your husband, your son, everyone you've ever trusted?
00:24:41Miss Vaughn, your divorce is going viral on social media right now.
00:24:44Is this just a media stunt?
00:24:45Miss Vaughn, you've dominated the business world for years.
00:24:47Would you really just give this all away like this?
00:24:49Or is this some kind of setup?
00:24:51Miss Vaughn, you need to fight back.
00:24:53Allow them to represent you so we can sue them and hit it where it hurts.
00:24:56Thanks, but no need.
00:24:58Miss Vaughn, Miss Vaughn, Miss Vaughn, Miss Vaughn, Miss Vaughn, Miss Vaughn, Miss Vaughn, Miss Vaughn, Miss Vaughn, Miss Vaughn, Miss Vaughn, Miss Vaughn, Miss Vaughn, Miss Vaughn, Miss Vaughn, Miss Vaughn, Miss Vaughn, Miss Vaughn, Miss Vaughn, Miss Vaughn, Miss Vaughn, Miss Vaughn, Miss Vaughn, Miss Vaughn, Miss Vaughn, Miss Vaughn, Miss Vaughn, Miss Vaughn, Miss Vaughn, Miss Vaughn, Miss Vaughn, Miss Vaughn, Miss Vaughn, Miss Vaughn, Miss Vaughn, Miss Vaughn, Miss Vaughn, Miss Vaughn, Miss Vaughn, Miss Vaughn, Miss Vaughn, Miss Vaughn, Miss Vaughn, Miss Vaughn, Miss
00:25:28I did you a favor and packed all your crap for you.
00:25:31Oh, and those gowns you love so much, well, they were too big for me, so I just sold them
00:25:37for dirt cheap.
00:25:38Oh, but don't worry.
00:25:39We gave you some basics, you know, clothes that will actually match your new pathetic
00:25:42life.
00:25:43And if you think about calling back to my husband and my son, I'll make you regret
00:25:49you were ever born.
00:25:51I still can't believe I ever called you mom.
00:25:57And here's your $100 pension, just like I promised, and I even broke it into singles
00:26:00for you.
00:26:01Figured you'd be too cheap to spend it otherwise.
00:26:04Well, what are you waiting for?
00:26:08Get down on all fours and collect your welfare, you pathetic loser.
00:26:14And hey, if you starve out there, don't say we didn't provide for you.
00:26:18Oh no, what if she goes and kills herself?
00:26:21Whoa, hold on.
00:26:23What if she actually drops dead and people say we pushed her over the edge?
00:26:27If word gets to Vivian, that could screw up the whole deal between our families.
00:26:32Isabel, what are hitting me?
00:26:36I'm broke, with no money, no home.
00:26:52My own husband, his mistress threw me out like trash.
00:26:56So why are you still so scared of me?
00:27:09Good riddance.
00:27:16Honey, I have worked under Isabella for many years and she's not someone to go away without a fight.
00:27:22I know, but everything she owns is now in our hands. She has no way to fight back.
00:27:28Mom, relax. It's over for her.
00:27:33I know, but I'm so nervous. I mean, she can crush someone with like literally silence. I mean, that's how she built the Vaughn group from the ground up.
00:27:40I think we should keep tabs on her because if she's planning something and we miss it, we are screwed.
00:27:45You're right. You're so smart.
00:27:47Better be safe than sorry. We'll keep a very close eye on her.
00:27:52Oh, Jesus. What is that smell? How can people live like this? It smells worse than a backed up sewer.
00:28:13See, darling, no need to worry. The once almighty Isabella Vaughn, queen of high society, is now reduced to living like a sewer rat.
00:28:23That's right. I was worried for a second there.
00:28:26Well, it's good to know that you're safe, darling. I mean, no ceiling to hang yourself from and no heights to jump off of. Just good old rock bottom.
00:28:35Wow. Salad dressing. Didn't realize the trash came with toppings. I guess that 100 bucks a month I've been throwing at you is way too generous.
00:28:45Next time, I'll cut it down to 50 bucks. You have no idea how hard money is to come by these days.
00:28:52I agree, son. How sad. Isabella, you're not even worth 50 bucks anymore.
00:28:57Enough, okay? 100 bucks can't even get me a decent nightgown. Just throw some scraps. I don't want to be blasted online.
00:29:04Fine. I'll be generous.
00:29:08Huh. Consider that a little bonus for your pity pension. Maybe now you won't be guilt tripping us. Because in three days, I'll be rubbing elbows with the queen of business herself, Vivian Hartley.
00:29:22Who knows? She might even marry me. And once that happens, the whole business world will be kissing my feet. And you, you'll be nothing but a washed up has been no one even remembers.
00:29:37Do you hear that, Isabella? My son is going to be tied down with the Vivian Hartley. Oh, gosh. She is the rising queen of the business world. Her wealth, her power, they eclipse anything you've ever done.
00:30:01Is that so? What? You think we owe you something? That we would be nothing without you?
00:30:06Please. I hate to break it to you, darling, but Vivian Hartley, you're not even in the same league. She actually invited us personally to the big grand banquet next week.
00:30:18Thank God my son has good taste in women. Lord knows I didn't at his age. Once we team up with Vivian Hartley, Wesselton Group will skyrocket. And you, my dear ex-wife, will be left here to rot. You don't even deserve a front row seat.
00:30:36A front row seat. Wow. No, we got to you, didn't we?
00:30:40All right. That's enough. Let's go.
00:30:44Toodaloo.
00:30:46Toodaloo.
00:30:56Miss Vaughn?
00:31:01It's time to leave for the banquet.
00:31:03At last. The show is just getting started.
00:31:13I followed your instructions and notified all the major media outlets. Now the banquet hall is packed with reporters from the best networks. Even the most famous anchors showed up.
00:31:25Perfect.
00:31:46Great. The stage is set. Now what about the players?
00:31:48Your daughter personally wrote the invitation to the Wieselton family. They must be over the moon right now, eager and scrambling to get ready for the banquet.
00:31:59And tonight will be a night they'll never forget. In front of everyone, I'll rip their fake masks off and take back everything they stole from me.
00:32:13Now let's go.
00:32:19You guys are not going to believe this. I got an invitation to Vivian Hartley's party. Oh my God. This is honestly the most glorious moment of my life.
00:32:32This place is packed with billionaires and celebrities. Literally. The richest people in the world are here. Yeah. You heard me. Vivian Hartley. The Vivian Hartley. The woman that practically owns this country.
00:32:35And today she is going to introduce the most important person in her life to the entire world.
00:32:40Ha!
00:33:10Did you hear that? Vivian is about to announce the most important person in her life. And it has to be our sweet, young, handsome boy. What if she's fallen for him?
00:33:32Oh my God, I'm so proud of you. What if the person Vivian's talking about isn't you?
00:33:39Oh, come on. She personally handwritten an invitation just for you. We must have charmed her.
00:33:44Not you. Who else could it be?
00:33:47It's Isabella Bond. Is she not bankrupt? What is she doing here?
00:34:08Hi, loser. This place isn't for beggars.
00:34:11Get lost. You're making the place stink.
00:34:14Would you please stop following me around so shamelessly? I mean, look at you. Even if you got naked, stripped down to your skivvies and begged me, I still wouldn't take you back. Don't you have any self-respect?
00:34:33Who said I came here for you?
00:34:34Then for what? To pick up some leftovers like a stray dog? Get her out of here. She's just some shameless beggar hoping to scrounge up some scraps.
00:34:49I'm here as the most important guest of Vivian.
00:34:52I'm here as the most important guest of Vivian.
00:35:03You, the most important guest of Vivian. Are you out of your mind? Do you even know who these people are? They're the wealthiest, most powerful figures in the country.
00:35:16And you, you're nobody. Just a washed up housewife. Oh wait, I forgot. Dad dumped you too. So really, you're just a homeless stray with nothing.
00:35:30He's right. He's so right. Everyone here, we are on a level that you could never reach, no matter how hard or high you jumped. We are up here. You are down here where you belong. I mean, you're lucky we're even spending a moment talking to you.
00:35:51Oh darling, don't say that. The girl's probably hungry. I mean, we're, we're kind people. We can't sit around and watch someone starve.
00:36:00Is there a doggy biscuit somewhere? Go on. You're probably starving.
00:36:06Oops. But if you want to eat, you need to eat like a dog. On your knees. Fits your broke ass status perfectly.
00:36:14Oops. Oops. Stepped on your dinner. No.
00:36:18But hey, no worries. You can pick it up and scrape it off my shoe and eat it.
00:36:25Well done, my boy.
00:36:28Great show. Now move. You're in my way.
00:36:33Yeah, right. He won't get in. I bet dollars to donuts, you don't even have an invitation.
00:36:39Of course she doesn't. Look at her. She's broke. No purse. Why would she get an invitation?
00:36:42I don't have an invitation because I don't need one.
00:36:47Vivian's butler will personally escort me.
00:36:51Within one minute.
00:36:55Quickly. Miss Bond is waiting.
00:36:57Enough. Shut up. Stop spewing that crap. How could you let her raise me? It's humiliating. Get out.
00:37:12You should be thankful I'm willing to inherit the company from a shameless nobody like you.
00:37:18I don't remember raising you to be so ungrateful. What happened to you?
00:37:22How dare you? He is my biological son. He carries my superior genes. He's fundamentally different than a creature like you.
00:37:31I suppose it really is a difference in genetics.
00:37:37Just stop it. I will not allow you to ruin our son's chances of being chosen by Vivian Hartley.
00:37:43You know how important this is? Once she marries him, or even if she just partners with us, power from around the world will line up.
00:37:53Flood to us. They will get down on their knees and begging us for the chance to work with them.
00:37:57That's right. And if you have at least that much of a conscience, you get the hell out and let my son seize this once in a lifetime chance.
00:38:07I wasn't the one trying to get close to you. It's the three of you who shamelessly came to me. I'm just standing here waiting for Vivian's butler to pick me up.
00:38:17Oh my god. She's out of her damn mind. Her butler is coming to get you? Not even the president gets that kind of treatment.
00:38:26Somebody, get this dirty bitch out of here.
00:38:31Get your filthy hands off her.
00:38:41She is Miss Hartley's most honored guest. Show her some respect.
00:38:46Get your filthy hands off her.
00:39:01What just happened? Did he just say that she's Vivian's most honored guest?
00:39:06Baby? Baby, what's going on? How does she know Vivian Hartley and how is she the most honored guest? What are we gonna do now?
00:39:13My apologies for keeping you so long. Please, come with me.
00:39:18It's all right. It was just a minute.
00:39:19Drop the act. Cut the shit. There is no way in hell that you are Vivian Hartley's honored guest.
00:39:34You bitch. I will get out of my way. Be by.
00:39:37You will not be allowed into the ballroom unless you have an invitation. And if you insult, I'll guess again, you'll all be thrown out of here.
00:39:51Okay, what are we, what are we gonna do? What if she comes after us? I told you, she is not a woman to mess with. And if she's in connections with Miss Hartley, then she's gonna, she's gonna make us pay. And then you need to say something or we're gonna die.
00:40:07Get a pay grip, woman. No. No. There is no way she knows Vivian Hartley. She gave everything she had to my son.
00:40:17That's right. I'm the CEO now. She's just a crazy old hag. Nothing more.
00:40:23What about Mrs. Hartley's butler?
00:40:28I've got it. She is hooking up with that decrepit old man. Yeah.
00:40:34I dropped her like a sack of potatoes and then she decided to screw some lowlife servant. It's just disgusting.
00:40:45Yeah, yeah, yeah. That, that, that must be the truth. Okay. That's it. All right. So we just need to go in there fast and I'm gonna expose this bitch to Edelon, ruin her reputation and get her kicked out.
00:40:56Let's go.
00:40:57Miss Vaughn, this is your first public appearance in bankruptcy. Is there anything you would like to say?
00:41:06Rumor is that you've transferred all of your assets to your ex-husband and his mistress's child and they kicked you out. Is this true?
00:41:15Yes, I almost gave up. Don't listen to her words. She says it's a bullshit. She's a fake liar.
00:41:20What are you talking about?
00:41:21Oh, cut the act. I've already figured out your dirty little scheme. This woman just divorced me and she's already in the arms of a security guard. Just to get in. Who knows how many men she slept with.
00:41:27over the years. I wouldn't be a bit surprised if she built her entire empire one bed at a time.
00:41:35And she's already in the arms of a security guard. Just to get in. Who knows how many men she slept with over the years. I wouldn't be a bit surprised if she built her entire empire one bed at a time.
00:41:43It's no surprise at all. She's the type of woman who will crawl into anyone's bed for a dime. Cheating. Cheap. Broke. And she still showed her face today. She's stinking up the whole ballroom.
00:41:56What a scene. This family really doesn't know what shame is. Is it all true? I can't believe I used to admire her that much.
00:42:19that much. Shameless? You think I'm the shameless one? All these years it was me who held this
00:42:29family together. Me who worked tirelessly to make ends meet. Me who gave everything to
00:42:34raise a child that wasn't even mined by blood. And what about you? Well, we... Oh, I remember
00:42:41what you two did. Every time I was out there breaking my back to keep everything afloat.
00:42:46You were living in my house. Spending my money writhing around like two animals in
00:42:52the heat. And now you call me shameless?
00:43:01And now you call me shameless? She raised the mistress's child? That's ridiculous.
00:43:07Why would she do that? Because that filthy couple lied to her. Made her raise their
00:43:12bastard as her own child. They weren't just screwing around. They stole her entire life
00:43:18and then dumped her in the street. Those two cheating scumbags are disgusting.
00:43:25Oh, come on! Who are all of you to judge us? Stop acting like we did something wrong. Let's
00:43:30be honest. Look at her. She's just a boring, ugly housewife. And a guy like me, I need a better
00:43:39woman. Yes, a better woman. Like me. Young, beautiful. Someone who knows how to treat their
00:43:45man and make them happy. Unlike you. In fact, you should be thanking her. Because after all,
00:43:51she did what you never could as a wife. And as a mom. So why don't you do something decent
00:43:57for once and have the shame to stay away from our family? Every time I think the three of
00:44:03you couldn't possibly get more shameless, you still manage to surprise me. Shut up! I've
00:44:09never met a family more disgraceful than you three. This is insane. It's not what it looks
00:44:14like. I mean, we are truly, truly in love. Isn't that what it's all about? I mean, why
00:44:21are you taking her side? Cancel all contracts with Weasleton Enterprises immediately.
00:44:25No! No, no, no, no, no, please. No, no, no, no, please. No, no, no, please. No, don't
00:44:36believe her. She is not the victim. She is twisting our words. She was a workaholic. Never home.
00:44:43Never home. Never cared for the child. She wrecked her health. And then when she finally
00:44:48got pregnant... It's okay. Let it out.
00:44:50The baby was a stillborn. What did you just say?
00:44:55It's okay. He doesn't blame you. Even though you were an irresponsible mother and wife.
00:45:01And in fact, we did everything we could to make sure that she didn't fall apart.
00:45:08We gave her our own child. We let her pretend that she was his mother. Because it was noble.
00:45:15It was out of selflessness. We sacrificed 20 years. We let our own son call another woman
00:45:23Mom. To protect her fragile little heart.
00:45:30Being raised by you was the greatest disgrace of my life. I don't expect someone like you
00:45:34to understand the meaning of gratitude. But stop slandering my real parents.
00:45:39You dare use my daughter's name to paint yourselves as saints? My daughter was born healthy.
00:45:46Laughing. Kicking. Crying. Alive. You. Her own father. Killed her.
00:45:56I did not. I did not. You looked right into her eyes and still chose to leave her alone.
00:46:00In the freezing rain for that woman's baby.
00:46:03You murdered my child. And then you handed me your bastard like a consolation.
00:46:07And now you want me to say thank you?
00:46:15No. No. She isn't lying. Our baby died because of you.
00:46:19Because you're careless and reckless and unstable. And now you want to blame us.
00:46:24Yeah. There's no proof. You continue to slander our name? I will call the police.
00:46:31Fine. You want proof? Thankfully the hospital's security footage is still there.
00:46:44Oh my god. That's her.
00:46:47Guys, did you see that? This is crazy. I am live streaming all of it.
00:46:57Nathan Weaselton killed his daughter and replaced her with his mistress's baby. For money!
00:47:05I did not.
00:47:08Remember these three. By tomorrow, they'll be famous.
00:47:15Sell all shares from Winsos and Enterprises. I never want my name associated with trash like this.
00:47:21What do we do, Dad?
00:47:22Sir, the company stock is crashing. Public outrage is exploding. The video is everywhere.
00:47:29What do we do? What the hell do we do?
00:47:31I know what you should do. You should return the company to Ms. Vaughn right now and then kneel down and beg for her forgiveness.
00:47:38Yeah.
00:47:39Heel down! Heel down! Heel down! Heel down! Heel down! Heel down!
00:47:49Heel down! Heel down! Heel down! Heel down!
00:47:51Yeah, fuck it! Okay? It doesn't matter. I didn't want to mingle with you lowlives anyways.
00:47:56Look close, motherfuckers. This is a personal invitation, handwritten by Vivian Hartley herself. She personally invited us. We are the ones that matter, not you pathetic losers.
00:48:13Yeah, and we don't need to work with nobodies like you, alright? Because we're gonna rise to a whole new level. So what's it gonna be? Are you going to offend Ms. Hartley? Or are you gonna shut your mouths like good little nobodies?
00:48:27Ha! That's more like it. Show us some respect.
00:48:32You really think you're Vivian's honored guests?
00:48:35Of course we are.
00:48:36And stop saying her name like you know her. You're not even worthy of it.
00:48:41I am. More than anyone here. Because the woman you're bragging about, Vivian Hartley, is my daughter.
00:48:56I'm sorry, what did you just say? I said, Vivian Hartley is my daughter.
00:49:03You mean, you mean the daughter who died 20 years ago? She, she wrote this little, this little invitation?
00:49:09Yes. And she sent it at my request. Without me, you wouldn't have even been allowed inside this ballroom.
00:49:17Oh my god! Are you crazy because you lost your child or because I stole your husband and all your money?
00:49:23Come on girl, get real. It's natural. Why would a man choose an old hag over a pretty thing like me?
00:49:30Listen, I do pity you. So, we could, um, have you committed and pay all the medical bills, right babe?
00:49:36Of course. Your daughter's dead. No one's coming to save you. You're just a lonely, abandoned, useless housewife.
00:49:46She's not dead. I saved her. She's brilliant, gifted. And with my help, she built the empire that she runs today.
00:49:56Okay, so first, you tell everyone here that I killed your daughter. Now, you're telling us that she's Vivian Hartley? I mean, you're insane!
00:50:03Shut up, you bitch!
00:50:08Madam, Miss Hartley's car has arrived. She'll be here in one minute.
00:50:14Now, let's see how low you'll sink, groveling at my daughter's feet.
00:50:24Drop the act. We've known all along you're in cahoots with this old geezer.
00:50:29Yeah, we know you hired an actress to play in your little drama, and it doesn't scare us.
00:50:34If anything, we think you're more pathetic.
00:50:36You've got 50 seconds left to keep pretending.
00:50:41Oh, no! Don't scare us with a talk! Please!
00:50:46A lowlife like you can never birth someone powerful.
00:50:49Only women like me can birth a genius.
00:50:51Look at Michael. He's so cute and handsome and charming.
00:50:55You?
00:50:56Well, you're just a broken factory.
00:50:5930 seconds.
00:51:00Enough!
00:51:02Okay, stop pretending. Everyone knows that you have nothing.
00:51:06I know it, you know it, and everyone here knows it.
00:51:12Just stop embarrassing yourself.
00:51:1410 seconds.
00:51:15This is madness. Someone throw her out right now!
00:51:16Seriously, get her out of here before she pollutes Miss Hartley's eyes.
00:51:20Stop.
00:51:21Stop!
00:51:34Oh, it's so big.
00:51:36Take your hands off my mom.
00:51:38That's her! Vivian Hartley!
00:51:40This is her first public appearance. I can't believe it. I'm meeting the woman Miss Hartley.
00:51:55Vivian, you look fantastic.
00:51:58Sure, she raised me for a couple years, but she's not really my mom.
00:52:03You don't have to be so nice to her.
00:52:04Exactly. You probably think that she's Michael's mother, but she's not. She's...
00:52:09And you are?
00:52:11Oh, I am.
00:52:13From now on, do not allow people like this to enter my events.
00:52:17Today is a very important day. I've come here to publicly acknowledge the most important person in my life.
00:52:27My mom.
00:52:29My sweet girl.
00:52:35That can't be real.
00:52:36It can't be real.
00:52:42This is wild. The Weaseltons built their entire reputation on Miss Hartley's name.
00:52:48And she doesn't even know them.
00:52:50And Isabella Vaughn is her mother.
00:52:52If I were them, I'd dig a hole and disappear forever. This is the most humiliating thing I've ever seen.
00:53:05They've offended Vivian Hartley. They're going to be bankrupt and homeless by morning. Let's do that again.
00:53:13No, no, no. This is not possible. You said she died. This is impossible. The baby died 20 years ago. How could this be?
00:53:22For your mistress and your bastard baby, you tried to kill your wives.
00:53:27My child by your own hands.
00:53:29Now the baby you abandoned in the rain has become someone you can't even reach.
00:53:34Do you regret it now?
00:53:37Carly.
00:53:41My daughter.
00:53:44What a lovely young woman you have become.
00:53:48She will always be my little girl.
00:53:51You'll forgive me, right?
00:53:52So you remember that I'm your daughter?
00:53:55Of course.
00:53:57Where was that memory the day you left me to die?
00:54:02Sweetheart. Baby. The love of my life used to be so happy. Remember? I made a mistake. A small mistake. I have dicks and I swear.
00:54:17What if I gave the company back to you?
00:54:23What?
00:54:24Get him off of me.
00:54:26I'm being reasonable. We can talk about this.
00:54:30The second you tried to kill my child, any chance of forgiveness was gone.
00:54:39Take it when you're bankrupt and living on the street.
00:54:42That is mine. Give it to me.
00:54:44Get them out.
00:54:45How could this happen?
00:54:48How is Isabella Miss Hartley's father? What am I gonna do?
00:54:52Wait a second.
00:54:54Are you sure that slip of a girl really is Miss Hartley?
00:55:03Are you sure that slip of a girl really is Miss Hartley?
00:55:07What do you mean?
00:55:09Technically, no one's ever really seen Miss Hartley's full face, right?
00:55:15What are you saying?
00:55:16I'm saying, what if she's not the real Hartley? No one's seen the real one.
00:55:21What if that old hag hired a paid actress again?
00:55:23She definitely, she definitely hired someone to pay the full.
00:55:26That's right. I knew it.
00:55:28We were tricked, all of us, and humiliated in front of the world.
00:55:31Hey, hey, hey. Don't blame yourself, sweetheart.
00:55:33Alright?
00:55:34The only one to blame is that shameless bitch!
00:55:37What are you doing?
00:55:54I arranged a little dinner for you tonight.
00:55:57With someone very special.
00:55:59He wanted me to give you this.
00:56:01Who?
00:56:02Dad.
00:56:03You know my adoptive father.
00:56:05I don't know if I'm ready for anything romantic.
00:56:07But Mom, he's rich, capable.
00:56:09He runs the entire Whitmore Group and owns multiple airlines.
00:56:11At least if you go on vacation with him, he'll fly private.
00:56:12Instead of squeezing into economy with that loser ex-husband.
00:56:14I just...
00:56:15Mom, he's waited for you all these years.
00:56:16He never married, you know.
00:56:17And you deserve to be loved, Mom.
00:56:18And you deserve to be loved, Mom.
00:56:20Alright.
00:56:46Alright, but I'm not dressing up.
00:56:47I'm not dressing up.
00:56:48The last thing I need is another man after my money.
00:56:54What are you doing here?
00:56:56This is a Michelin-starred restaurant.
00:56:58Places like this aren't made for people like you.
00:57:01Where's your daughter?
00:57:03What, the actress couldn't stick around?
00:57:06Excuse me?
00:57:07We're not dumb.
00:57:09We know that girl wasn't really Vivian Hartley.
00:57:11You paid her to pretend.
00:57:13You blew all your money on that stunt,
00:57:15and now you can't even afford a proper outfit.
00:57:18Wow.
00:57:19The fact that people like you exist is genuinely tragic.
00:57:22Think whatever you want.
00:57:24I can't believe I once married someone
00:57:26as pathetic and stupid as you.
00:57:28Hey!
00:57:32Excuse me, this woman is not up to the dress code.
00:57:35This is an expensive, exclusive place.
00:57:45When dressed like this go into your restaurant,
00:57:47this place used to be good.
00:57:49You can't even afford an Hermes.
00:57:51Honestly, if this is your clientele,
00:57:53then we won't be coming back,
00:57:55because this place obviously has no class.
00:57:58Most of our guests do have designer bags,
00:58:02jewelry worth six figures.
00:58:04I'm afraid that your dress...
00:58:06This dress is a private, custom-made piece by Enzo Moretti.
00:58:14Oh!
00:58:15You mean THE Enzo Moretti?
00:58:17The Italian couture?
00:58:19The one that the British royal family wears.
00:58:21Some of his custom gowns cost over 100 grand.
00:58:24There's no way you can afford that.
00:58:27Every piece he makes is one of a kind.
00:58:30If you had any taste at all,
00:58:32you would have recognized it immediately.
00:58:34But...
00:58:35I suppose that's asking too much from people like you.
00:58:39Please, don't make me laugh.
00:58:41Everything you're wearing wouldn't even fetch $100.
00:58:44I have tissues more expensive.
00:58:46Oh!
00:58:47And this?
00:58:48You see this?
00:58:49This is an anniversary gift Nathan got me.
00:58:52Yeah, your ex-husband gave me this.
00:58:55And you?
00:58:56What?
00:58:57He gave you dead flowers from the trash.
00:58:59That's the kind of gifts he'd give you as wife.
00:59:06Only a beautiful, adored woman like Ava deserves a necklace like that.
00:59:12That's why she belongs here, draped in diamonds.
00:59:15And you?
00:59:16You're just a pathetic divorcee.
00:59:18Why don't you go out to the alley and eat your dinner out of the trash where you belong?
00:59:22Yeah.
00:59:24Everything you have came from me.
00:59:27The fact that you're standing here bragging like some self-made van is honestly hilarious.
00:59:32And that jewelry is not even worth one-tenth the value of this dress, let alone my entire collection.
00:59:37So, really, Ava, you're just embarrassing yourself.
00:59:40You little bitch.
00:59:42Enough!
00:59:43Get her out of here.
00:59:44Yeah.
00:59:45If you don't believe me, check Enzo Moretti's official site.
00:59:48Fine, I will.
00:59:57It's identical.
00:59:58Oh, please.
00:59:59It's a simple design.
01:00:00It's probably just a knockoff.
01:00:02Yeah, exactly.
01:00:03She probably bought it second hand or in the clearance section.
01:00:06Every Enzo Moretti piece has its signature embroidered.
01:00:11It's real.
01:00:15Relax.
01:00:16It's just a dress.
01:00:17Who knows?
01:00:18Maybe she sold everything just to rent it for a night.
01:00:19Or, like I said, it's a knockoff.
01:00:20Exactly.
01:00:21Even if it was real, it's definitely not more expensive than this.
01:00:22Of course it is.
01:00:23This piece was handmade by Enzo Moretti himself.
01:00:24There's only one in the world.
01:00:25Even if you sold your entire jewelry collection, you still wouldn't be able to afford it.
01:00:26Oh, my God.
01:00:27Just stop bragging about this.
01:00:28Stop.
01:00:29I'm sorry.
01:00:30I'm sorry.
01:00:31I'm sorry.
01:00:32I'm sorry.
01:00:33I'm sorry.
01:00:34I'm sorry.
01:00:35I'm sorry.
01:00:36I'm sorry.
01:00:37I'm sorry.
01:00:38I'm sorry.
01:00:39I'm sorry.
01:00:40I'm sorry.
01:00:41I'm sorry.
01:00:42I'm sorry.
01:00:43I'm sorry.
01:00:44I'm sorry.
01:00:45I'm sorry.
01:00:46I'm sorry.
01:00:47I'm sorry.
01:00:48I'm sorry.
01:00:49Stop.
01:00:50I really don't have time to listen to people like you.
01:00:57What now?
01:00:58Bring over the entire collection.
01:01:00Yes.
01:01:01Are you buying any of this?
01:01:03Yes.
01:01:04What a performance.
01:01:05Let me guess.
01:01:06Another actor?
01:01:07Need a few bucks for props?
01:01:09Want us to toss you some spare change along with your $100 alimony?
01:01:14Don't you know that this place employs trained professionals?
01:01:18They see you in that fake garbage.
01:01:20They'll toss you out faster than yesterday's leftovers.
01:01:23Stop humiliating yourself.
01:01:25And take it off before I do.
01:01:33You'll spend the rest of your life trying to pay it off.
01:01:36Then let's see who can actually afford it.
01:01:39Tear it off.
01:01:40Let's see if you have the guts to walk in there in your underwear.
01:01:42Yeah.
01:01:43Ha, ha, ha, ha.
01:01:45Ha, ha, ha.
01:01:46Ha!
01:01:47Oh, my God.
01:02:17Madam?
01:02:37Ms. Vaughn has already reserved the VIP room.
01:02:41Kindly show some respect.
01:02:43Ms. Vaughn, my sincere apologies.
01:02:46Welcome back.
01:02:49Your private suite awaits.
01:02:52When was she here?
01:02:53No, she's...
01:02:56We're going in two.
01:03:00VIP guests only.
01:03:02Excuse...
01:03:03Looks like I'm not the one who doesn't belong here.
01:03:07How did you ever marry that woman?
01:03:14She has money.
01:03:15Well, not anymore.
01:03:25To new beginnings, to your newborn freedom, and to leaving that terrible man behind.
01:03:30Thank you, Alaric.
01:03:33It really feels like a fresh start for the first time in a long while.
01:03:42I've always wondered.
01:03:44You're such a powerful man.
01:03:46You have so many women interested in you, so many advantages.
01:03:48Why did you wait so long for me?
01:03:54Was it for business?
01:03:55A strategic alliance through marriage?
01:03:58No, Isabella.
01:03:59It was none of those things.
01:04:02I've waited for you because I know the kind of woman you are.
01:04:07You're a good wife.
01:04:08You're a devoted mother.
01:04:09I've seen what you've given up for your family.
01:04:13And yet, the man you married never saw your worth.
01:04:19He was blind to everything.
01:04:21If he wasn't, he wouldn't have let you go.
01:04:24It was hard.
01:04:25Giving so much and getting so little in return.
01:04:31Hearing you say this, Alaric, it means more than I expected.
01:04:35Isabella, you deserve better.
01:04:36I hope you let yourself be happy.
01:04:39I hope you let me be the one that sees you.
01:04:43That truly sees you.
01:04:50I like that, Alaric.
01:04:52I like that very much.
01:04:55Who knows, maybe this could be the beginning of something good.
01:05:00Shall we cheers to that?
01:05:02Yeah.
01:05:09Oh my god, again?
01:05:18Jesus, everywhere she goes.
01:05:20Sorry, ma'am.
01:05:21This card cannot be used here.
01:05:24Why not?
01:05:24Because our restaurant...
01:05:25Because this restaurant caters to a very exclusive clientele.
01:05:30If you don't have the right card, even a little bit of money won't help.
01:05:34Yeah.
01:05:34So even if you did sneak in, you still don't belong here.
01:05:37How incredibly not awkward.
01:05:40Tell you what, though.
01:05:42If you can't pay your bill, you can always jump in the back and do dishes.
01:05:45She'll be scrubbing blades for a lifetime.
01:05:47Let's face it, she's worthless.
01:05:50Just a discarded housewife with no husband, no money.
01:05:54Oh, if you had a shred of dignity, you wouldn't show your face here.
01:05:59Here.
01:06:00Try this one.
01:06:15Oh.
01:06:16This is one of the highest level cards by some of the top banks.
01:06:20Only ten people in the whole country have one.
01:06:22Each person who has one has absolute power.
01:06:25Can it be used here?
01:06:26Absolutely.
01:06:26In fact, as the owner of this card, you are our most honored guest tonight.
01:06:32Where the hell did you get this?
01:06:34It's mine, of course.
01:06:37Impossible!
01:06:38You gave all of your assets to our son.
01:06:40You couldn't afford something like this.
01:06:42Oh.
01:06:43I get it.
01:06:44She stole it.
01:06:45Probably from us.
01:06:48Every time I think the three of you can't possibly get more shameless,
01:06:52you still manage to surprise me.
01:06:54We are just taking back what is ours.
01:06:55It's fair.
01:06:58Well, then, by all means, read what's engraved on it.
01:07:06Now, do you want to give it back, or should I call security again?
01:07:09This card is custom-made for each of the bank's most prestigious clients.
01:07:19Each one has the owner's name engraved on it.
01:07:22So, yes, this card is mine.
01:07:24How does she have this card?
01:07:25I thought she gave all of her assets to our son.
01:07:29Ah, I see.
01:07:30You've been hiding money from me all along.
01:07:33Where's the love?
01:07:34Where is the trust?
01:07:37I guess it turns out you really are just a lying, selfish bitch.
01:07:41Exactly.
01:07:42You gave your assets to our son, which means technically this card is ours, too.
01:07:49Go, Lauren.
01:07:49Keep going.
01:07:50I just wanted to thank you for such a wonderful husband, and an amazing son, and this beautiful
01:07:56card.
01:07:56I...
01:07:57You are too generous, really.
01:07:59No, really.
01:08:00Don't worry.
01:08:01If you don't want to enjoy your luxury, I'll enjoy it for you.
01:08:04Trash like...
01:08:06Them?
01:08:07You might be able to steal by playing the mistress, but...
01:08:10Some things you're just not meant to enjoy.
01:08:11What is that supposed to mean?
01:08:13That card carries my identity, so only I can use it.
01:08:16But hey, feel free to try it.
01:08:19Just know you'll be arrested for fraud.
01:08:26You don't think I won't?
01:08:30That's destruction of property.
01:08:32You'll be paying for that.
01:08:32No, that's mine.
01:08:34If I said it's mine, right?
01:08:35Yeah, so I'm not paying for anything.
01:08:37Dream on.
01:08:38What are you going to do now, dumbass?
01:08:41Can't even pay your bill.
01:08:43Since you raised me, I'll make you an offer.
01:08:46If you get on your knees and beg, maybe I'll pay for lunch.
01:08:50Mom.
01:08:51Do you accept digital payments?
01:08:58Oops.
01:08:59That's ours, too.
01:09:00Remember, you signed the contract.
01:09:02Why don't you just call up your man to come pay for you?
01:09:05Oh, yeah, that's right.
01:09:06Your husband dumped you.
01:09:08You are just a broke, washed up, old hag that nobody wants.
01:09:14That's enough.
01:09:15Are you okay?
01:09:27Yeah.
01:09:29I'll cover the bill.
01:09:30I got this.
01:09:30You see this?
01:09:36Who the hell are you?
01:09:38Mr. Whitmore.
01:09:39I'll get the manager right away.
01:09:41Alaric Whitmore, as in the CEO of Whitmore Group?
01:09:47Pleasure to meet you, sir.
01:09:48I have to ask, what's a gentleman like you, someone of such high regard doing with someone
01:09:55like her?
01:09:56I can tell you from experience, don't waste your time.
01:09:58She's just a washed up housewife.
01:10:01That's where you're blind and frankly, pathetic.
01:10:04Isabella is gentle and kind.
01:10:07She's done everything to her family.
01:10:09And she's protected her child.
01:10:11She's an absolute treasure to any man.
01:10:15A true man with taste, dignity, and integrity would never be chasing after trash like her.
01:10:23A homewrecker, no morals.
01:10:27You're no woman.
01:10:28You're a disgrace.
01:10:30How dare you?
01:10:31You don't.
01:10:32We cannot afford to offend him.
01:10:34Apologies.
01:10:35And I intend to cherish her properly.
01:10:57Don't you guys have a bill to settle, too?
01:11:00Fine.
01:11:01It's just lunch.
01:11:03Run that.
01:11:07Sorry, sir.
01:11:08This card's been denied.
01:11:09It's frozen.
01:11:11Ew.
01:11:12That's impossible.
01:11:13There's tons of money on that account.
01:11:15Run it again.
01:11:17Try this one.
01:11:19Oh, this is embarrassing.
01:11:20I don't like this.
01:11:21Try them all.
01:11:22No.
01:11:23Give us the...
01:11:24No, not this one.
01:11:27Uh, this card's been declined, too.
01:11:31Oh, my God.
01:11:32And this one.
01:11:34What the fuck is going on?
01:11:37Our company assets are frozen.
01:11:40Oh, shit.
01:11:41There is major, major public backlash.
01:11:43They're protesting.
01:11:46They're protesting.
01:11:47What do we do?
01:11:47Dad, what's happening?
01:11:55Dad!
01:11:56I don't know.
01:11:57You don't know?
01:11:57I don't know.
01:11:58I guess they figured out that I cheated on Isabella, and then we tricked her into raising
01:12:02Michael, and now they're pissed.
01:12:03The public is pissed, and so our stock prices are crumbling.
01:12:06Oh, God.
01:12:07Now our fucking accounts are frozen.
01:12:08I can't breathe, you guys.
01:12:10I can't breathe.
01:12:11I can't.
01:12:12The first one, all done.
01:12:13God damn it!
01:12:14We don't even open this god damn thing!
01:12:15It's fine!
01:12:16It's fine.
01:12:16It's fine.
01:12:17It's fine.
01:12:18It's fine.
01:12:18To be very clear, as CEO of the Whitmore Group, I blacklisted you.
01:12:23Yeah.
01:12:23Anyone looking to partner with you would be my enemy.
01:12:29Shall we go?
01:12:31Of course.
01:12:33I'm going to be...
01:12:34Mr. Whitmore.
01:12:36It's fine.
01:12:37It's fine.
01:12:38It's fine.
01:12:39It's fine.
01:12:40Okay.
01:12:41Because in a few days, the Hartley Group is having their public day.
01:12:45As long as we progress the real Vivian Hartley, we're good.
01:12:50Yeah.
01:12:50We're back in the game, baby!
01:12:52Yes!
01:12:53Give me my card back.
01:12:54Send us the bell.
01:12:55Let's go.
01:12:55Sure.
01:12:55Oh, sure.
01:12:55Oh.
01:12:56Oh, you look stunning today.
01:13:08You always say the sweetest things.
01:13:10I mean it.
01:13:11You look so much better now than when you were married to that jerk stuck at home playing housewife.
01:13:16You're right.
01:13:18I never should have married your father.
01:13:21But then, I wouldn't have had a daughter as wonderful as you are.
01:13:27I don't recognize him as my dad.
01:13:30Think of how he treated you.
01:13:32But it's okay.
01:13:33You're back.
01:13:35You're ready to be CEO of Hartley Group.
01:13:38Come on, Mom.
01:13:39The bidding is about to start.
01:13:40You get to decide the lucky one to win the billion-dollar contract.
01:13:45Let's go.
01:13:53Let us drink to sweet, sweet victory.
01:13:57That Hartley contract will be ours.
01:13:59That'll launch us to the top.
01:14:02To a bright future.
01:14:05Look at them.
01:14:07Rich.
01:14:08Powerful.
01:14:08Soon, we'll be one of them.
01:14:11I can't wait until Isabella regrets everything.
01:14:14Once she finds out that we made that billion-dollar deal, she'll cry with envy.
01:14:18That's all thanks to you, my son.
01:14:20Even Vivian Hartley couldn't resist that old Wesselton charm.
01:14:24She wrote the invitation herself.
01:14:28Thank you, darling.
01:14:29For giving me such an amazing son.
01:14:31Oh.
01:14:32Unlike that useless woman, all she was good for was cooking.
01:14:37Washing, washing, giving us money to spend.
01:14:39Oh, yeah.
01:14:40Oh, yeah.
01:14:44Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome Miss Vivian Hartley and her mother.
01:14:52That seat must be Hartley's mother's.
01:15:00Look at the grandeur.
01:15:02Don't be jealous.
01:15:04Tomorrow, when Vivian chooses us, that seat will be yours.
01:15:08What in God's name?
01:15:20Why is she with her?
01:15:21You didn't...
01:15:23No.
01:15:25No, no, no, no, no.
01:15:26This can't be happening.
01:15:27She's actually...
01:15:28She's actually Vivian's mother.
01:15:32Oh, God.
01:15:32It's over.
01:15:33It's over.
01:15:34It's over.
01:15:34The Hartley group is never going to let us off.
01:15:36We're going to go bankrupt.
01:15:37No, no, no, no, no.
01:15:38I don't want to go bankrupt.
01:15:40I'm still so young.
01:15:42I don't want to go to jail.
01:15:44What do I do?
01:15:45What do I do?
01:15:51Please.
01:15:52I said it before, and I'll say it again.
01:15:55I was wrong.
01:15:56I regret everything.
01:15:58Please forgive me, and let's get back together.
01:16:00It's too late.
01:16:11I gave you many chances.
01:16:13You never appreciated them.
01:16:19You're not my son, but I raised you for 20 years.
01:16:23And what did you do?
01:16:26Betray me the moment I gave you my fortune.
01:16:28I'm sorry, Mom.
01:16:31I was wrong.
01:16:33You've worked so hard to raise me all these years,
01:16:36pouring your heart and soul into it.
01:16:40I saw it all, but I didn't appreciate it.
01:16:43I truly made a mistake.
01:16:46Please forgive me.
01:16:49I trusted you, promoted you,
01:16:52treated you as my apprentice.
01:16:53And how did you repay me?
01:16:57By having an affair with my husband
01:16:59and destroying my family.
01:17:01I'm so sorry.
01:17:02Please.
01:17:03Please forgive me, Mrs. Mon.
01:17:04And you.
01:17:13I took care of you and this family for over 20 years.
01:17:17I washed your clothes, cooked for you,
01:17:19raised our children, and you?
01:17:22You cheated, tried to kill our biological daughter,
01:17:25and stole my property.
01:17:28You brought this all on yourself.
01:17:29Nobody move!
01:17:33Nobody fucking move!
01:17:36Wait.
01:17:37Isabella, come here.
01:17:43What are you doing just standing there?
01:17:45Get over here!
01:17:45Dad, stop.
01:17:47You've crossed the line.
01:17:49We have no choice.
01:17:50Isabella here backed us into a corner.
01:17:53If we don't do this, we're done.
01:17:55Once we have their money,
01:17:57we can go abroad.
01:17:59They'll never be able to touch us.
01:18:01Nathan, let Vivian go.
01:18:04I promise I'll give you a way out.
01:18:06But if you hurt her,
01:18:09I swear to God I'll make you pay with your life.
01:18:12I think I would trust you.
01:18:15I'm holding all the cards now.
01:18:18I can do whatever the fuck I want!
01:18:21And I say,
01:18:23get down on your knees
01:18:24and make sure this little bastard
01:18:26gives me all her money.
01:18:28Mom, don't do that.
01:18:29I won't give a penny to them.
01:18:31Everything goes to my mom.
01:18:33Really?
01:18:34Nathan.
01:18:35Dad, don't.
01:18:37Just let her go.
01:18:38I'm scared.
01:18:40Nathan, let her go.
01:18:41Okay, she...
01:18:42Isabella, we'll keep her word, okay?
01:18:45Right? Right?
01:18:47I have my jewelry.
01:18:48I have my jewelry.
01:18:49We can sell my jewelry.
01:18:50And the three of us,
01:18:51we can live on that, right?
01:18:54Who gives a fuck
01:18:55about your lousy money?
01:18:57If it weren't for you,
01:18:59you gold-digging bitch,
01:19:00we wouldn't even be in this mess.
01:19:02You think because you have some good looks
01:19:03that you can replace Isabella
01:19:05and you belong in my bed?
01:19:06Michael, if you're still my son,
01:19:13if you're a man at all,
01:19:14you will do as I say
01:19:15and we can escape.
01:19:18She raised me.
01:19:20Don't forget,
01:19:21you betrayed her too.
01:19:23She'll never forgive you.
01:19:25Do what the fuck I say,
01:19:26grab a knife,
01:19:27and hold her.
01:19:28Don't come any closer.
01:19:36Isabella,
01:19:37if you take one more step,
01:19:39I'll smash your face.
01:19:41Fine.
01:19:42I won't move.
01:19:45Everyone knows that I always keep my word.
01:19:48If I say I'll let you go,
01:19:49I mean it.
01:19:50I won't make your life difficult,
01:19:51but even if you get the money,
01:19:54there's no escape.
01:19:56You'll just dig your own grave.
01:19:59Enough with your empty threats.
01:20:02Give us the fucking money
01:20:04or I'll slash her face
01:20:06and then I'll slit her fucking throat.
01:20:09Fine.
01:20:15Fine.
01:20:16I'll do it.
01:20:16Mom, don't.
01:20:18Vivian, trust me.
01:20:19I'll give the money.
01:20:21If you had done that earlier,
01:20:23none of this would have happened.
01:20:25I'll give you the money.
01:20:27Nathan,
01:20:28you already tried to murder our daughter once
01:20:30and now you want to do it again?
01:20:32No.
01:20:33I'll have my son do it.
01:20:35Now hold her.
01:20:36I'm going to transfer the money.
01:20:39You stupid bitch.
01:20:41You thought you could beat me?
01:20:43I am destined for greatness.
01:20:45Now transfer the fucking money
01:20:47or your precious daughter
01:20:50when we pay the ultimate price.
01:20:58How are you?
01:21:05Son, we're rich.
01:21:06We'll never have to worry about money again.
01:21:08You stupid fucking cunt.
01:21:14You will spend the rest of your miserable life
01:21:18penniless and alone.
01:21:21But,
01:21:21but dad,
01:21:22she's still my mom.
01:21:25Vivian, now!
01:21:25You'll spend the rest of your life
01:21:41behind bars now.
01:21:44Okay.
01:21:45Go.
01:21:46From this moment on,
01:21:47I no longer have a son.
01:21:48Mom, wait!
01:21:56Mom, wait!
01:22:05Oh!
01:22:06Shall we?
01:22:12Our flight to the Maldives is about to board.
