Transcript

00:00:00Ryan.

00:00:07Sir, our stock is being shorted aggressively. We're about to hit the limit down.

00:00:13What the hell is going on here?

00:00:16Half of you came from major investment banks.

00:00:19Our stock is about to crash, and you're telling me there's nothing we can do?

00:00:23Sir, this is a coordinated attack from multiple investment funds.

00:00:27They're shorting us simultaneously. There is nothing we can do.

00:00:31Sir, what are our next steps?

00:00:38Well, looks like Shepard Guild might be bankrupt by lunchtime.

00:00:47Hey, this is a private station.

00:00:49Excuse me, ma'am. Could you hold on a cleaning for just a couple of minutes?

00:00:53Mr. Shepard, building a public company?

00:00:56In just five years? That's impressive.

00:01:00But losing your cool over a little market turbulence?

00:01:05That seems out of character for you.

00:01:07Do I know you?

00:01:09Wait, what are you doing?

00:01:13What are you doing?

00:01:15You can't do this, you're just a cleaner.

00:01:17You can't be messing with our company funds.

00:01:19This is incredible!

00:01:21What's going on?

00:01:23The shorting attempt.

00:01:25It's failing!

00:01:26The price is holding!

00:01:28Boss, our stock price is reaching today's opening value.

00:01:32We met before.

00:01:37They're still cleaning to do Mr. Shepard.

00:01:39Hold on.

00:01:40So, tell me, how could I ever repay you for this?

00:01:44If the opportunity ever arises, you could give your next contract for construction to Harrison Group.

00:01:54Jason?

00:01:55Can we have five now?

00:01:57Mr. Yates?

00:01:58What, only two bodyguards this time?

00:02:00You're not going soft on me, are you?

00:02:01No, ma'am.

00:02:02I just thought you might like to squeak today.

00:02:03Now listen, everyone is waiting in New York for you to claim your inheritance as CEO of the Lewis Group.

00:02:07Mr. Yates, you know that my investigations here aren't finished.

00:02:14Ma'am, I still don't understand why you've kept your identity as secretly.

00:02:20Why you've married this Ben Harrison fellow?

00:02:21Look, today is Ben's birthday.

00:02:22Anything we need to discuss, we can do it some other time.

00:02:23Ma'am, it really is time for you to accept your inheritance.

00:02:24Because what I want is a simple thing that you might like to scream today.

00:02:25You might like to scream today.

00:02:26Now listen, everyone is waiting in New York for you to claim your inheritance as CEO of the Lewis Group.

00:02:27Mr. Yates, you know that my investigations here aren't finished.

00:02:32Ma'am, I still don't understand why you've kept your identity as secretly.

00:02:35Why you've married this Ben Harrison fellow?

00:02:37Look, today is Ben's birthday.

00:02:40Anything we need to discuss, we can do it some other time.

00:02:43Ma'am, it really is time for you to accept your inheritance.

00:02:48Because what I want is a simple life with Ben.

00:02:52Ma'am, at least do me a favour and let Toby walk you up to the house, for my sake.

00:03:08Divorce papers, sign it.

00:03:16Why?

00:03:17You are not worthy of my son anymore.

00:03:19The Harrison Group is practically a local celebrity now.

00:03:22Especially since it's landed a $100 million contract.

00:03:25The Shepherd Group.

00:03:27And you, you're just a cleaner.

00:03:30The truth is, Laura, I've wanted a divorce for a very long time.

00:03:34I need a wife who reflects my status.

00:03:36I secured that $100 million contract.

00:03:40You, a cleaning woman, handing out million dollar deals. Don't make me laugh.

00:03:50I did! It was my present to Ben for his birthday.

00:03:53I was the one who got Ryan Harrison to give Ben that deal.

00:03:57What are you doing here?

00:03:59Clearly, Ben has found himself a woman more suitable for the Harrison family.

00:04:03Amber's family is practically local royalty.

00:04:07Local royalty. A small town rich person is royalty.

00:04:11And what qualifications do you have to judge, Miss Cleaner?

00:04:14Your resume boasts supermarket cashier and dinner waitress alongside janitor, doesn't it?

00:04:19Ben?

00:04:20What's going on?

00:04:22What's going on?

00:04:24Is this why you want a divorce?

00:04:26Because of her?

00:04:27Oh, please.

00:04:28I've spent years building Harrison Group.

00:04:31You're still a cleaner.

00:04:33You just grew apart, that's all.

00:04:35Grown apart?

00:04:38No.

00:04:39No, I won't sign any agreement, Ben.

00:04:44I won't sign anything.

00:04:47Huh.

00:04:48Money is a motivator, isn't it?

00:04:50Ben.

00:04:52Alright.

00:04:53Here.

00:04:54A hundred thousand dollars.

00:04:55Open up a small shop or something like that.

00:04:58A hundred thousand dollars.

00:05:00I was the one that helped you make Harrison Group what it is today.

00:05:05Do you have any idea how much money I've brought in for you?

00:05:08Don't be ridiculous.

00:05:10You've never done anything for Ben's success.

00:05:13This is our act of charity journey.

00:05:15Here.

00:05:16A million dollars.

00:05:17Take this.

00:05:18You just want more money, don't you?

00:05:21Just leave and never see Ben again.

00:05:24I never expected my three years of devotion to end like this.

00:05:30Since none of you respect me.

00:05:34A cleaning lady threatening us.

00:05:37I'm so scared.

00:05:39Just leave.

00:05:40You're ready to make this house stink.

00:05:41Make up, she's gone.

00:05:42Go to written store.

00:05:43Sir?

00:05:44Laura Lewis' information.

00:05:45She's Ben Harrison's wife.

00:05:46No wonder why she wanted to partner with them.

00:05:47Actually sir, Ben Harrison just divorced her.

00:05:48Divorced her?

00:05:49Wait a minute.

00:05:50Don't you remember?

00:05:51Don't you remember?

00:05:52She's the one who helped us with the Smith contract three years ago.

00:05:55Yeah.

00:05:56She saved our hiding then.

00:05:57Remember?

00:05:58Why would Ben Harrison dump someone who just got him a hundred million dollar contract?

00:06:01I mean...

00:06:02Why would Ben Harrison dump someone who just got him a hundred million dollar contract?

00:06:03No.

00:06:04No wonder why she wanted to partner with them.

00:06:05No wonder why she wanted to partner with them.

00:06:06Actually sir, Ben Harrison just divorced her.

00:06:08Divorced her?

00:06:11Wait a minute.

00:06:12Don't you remember?

00:06:13Don't you remember?

00:06:14Don't you remember?

00:06:16She's the one who helped us with the Smith contract three years ago?

00:06:19Yeah.

00:06:20She saved our hiding then.

00:06:22Remember?

00:06:23Why would Ben Harrison dump someone who just got him a hundred million dollar contract?

00:06:30I don't know.

00:06:32Let's get to the bottom of this.

00:06:36Hey! What are you doing? Let go of me!

00:06:39You attacked Amber! Apologize this instant!

00:06:45Stealing from the Harrisons.

00:06:47We gave you a generous divorce settlement, you refused it, and now you're stealing!

00:06:51She couldn't afford it. You're a thief!

00:07:00That's mine! Give it back!

00:07:02That's enough!

00:07:05Laura?

00:07:07I want to say thank you properly for saving Shepard Group.

00:07:10It's really no worries, Mr. Shepard, but I'm just going through a divorce.

00:07:16You see, it's...

00:07:17Who are you, Boris New Squeeze?

00:07:20Excuse me. Do you know who I am?

00:07:22Is this true? You hooked up with this man while you were married to my son? Shame on you!

00:07:27Mr. Shepard, I...

00:07:28For your information, my name is Brian Shepard. I'm CEO of the Shepard Group.

00:07:34Oh, please. A big shot like Brian Shepard wouldn't be caught dead with a cleaner.

00:07:38You really don't recognize him, do you, Amber? That's really interesting considering I thought you were the one that secured that contract for Ben.

00:07:46That's ridiculous. He doesn't look like that. My ring.

00:07:51Jason, give it back to Ms. Lewis.

00:07:53Oh, hey, what are you doing?

00:07:54Laura, let's get you out of here. Now.

00:07:59Hold on a minute, Laura. Who the heck is this man or have you been sneaking around?

00:08:04It's alright, ma'am. This is none of your business.

00:08:07I'll grab dead bodies. You're not going anywhere until I tell you tell us what's going on.

00:08:12We are the Harrisons. You can't just waltz in here and take her.

00:08:16Harrison, compared to the Shepard Group, you're nobody. I go back.

00:08:19What? Are you saying that is Brian Shepard? That's a lie!

00:08:24Don't you dare walk away from me, Laura! You come back here and explain yourself!

00:08:28Don't you take another step towards my son, Laura!

00:08:32Laura, does Ben even know you were the one who secured the 100 million deal?

00:08:37Let's just say that Ben underestimated me.

00:08:41I don't feel good about going through the signing event.

00:08:45After how they treated you, maybe we should cancel it?

00:08:49No! Um, no. The event will proceed.

00:08:54Besides, I'll be there.

00:08:59There's a lot that I don't know about you, Laura. Who are you, truly?

00:09:04You'll find out, Mr. Shepard.

00:09:08Um, can you pull up over here, please?

00:09:10Mr. Yates, I want you to call all of the Lewis Group's business partners, and we're gonna have a meeting.

00:09:22An investment meeting, one week from today.

00:09:25Make sure everyone is there.

00:09:29Because after that meeting, I'm gonna reclaim my place as the CEO of Lewis Group.

00:09:37Oh, excellent, Ms. Lewis. I'll start making arrangements tomorrow.

00:09:41Ben Harrison, you're gonna know exactly what it feels like to lose everything.

00:09:50After this ceremony, the Harrison family will finally be considered Maplewood City royalty.

00:09:59Only after then, my darling, we can get married.

00:10:03Laura, what are you doing here?

00:10:05Security! Get that woman out of here! We don't need cleaners at this event!

00:10:10Why wouldn't I be here? This is a business event, after all.

00:10:14Business? You wouldn't know business if I hit you on the head.

00:10:18A fancy dress doesn't make you high society, honey. Just get out!

00:10:22Don't tell me you've come looking for another rich man to play mistress for.

00:10:25You should've taken my $100,000 offer.

00:10:27Well, Ben, do you really think that you can sign this contract without me?

00:10:32Laura, this is really important for me. Do not ruin this, okay?

00:10:36You don't belong here. Just get out!

00:10:40That's what you get.

00:10:50This contract is mine. To give or take away as I see things.

00:10:57Don't be ridiculous! This is insane! Who do you think you are?

00:11:01Yeah, put that down. You have no idea what you're doing.

00:11:04Security! She's lost a mind! This is a disaster!

00:11:08Ben, this contract was supposed to be my birthday present to you.

00:11:13But since you clearly don't deserve it...

00:11:17Yes!

00:11:22Yes!

00:11:23Laura, I want to say thank you properly for saving Shepard Group.

00:11:40It's really no worries, Mr. Shepard, but I'm just going through a divorce. You see? It's...

00:11:45Who are you?

00:11:47Laura's new squeeze.

00:11:48Excuse me. Do you know who I am?

00:11:49Is this true? You hooked up with this man while you were married to my son? Shame on you!

00:11:54Mr. Shepard, I...

00:11:55For your information, my name is Brian Shepard. I'm CEO of the Shepard Group.

00:12:00Oh, please. A big shot like Brian Shepard wouldn't be caught dead with a cleaner.

00:12:18Oh, hey, what are you doing?

00:12:20Laura, let's get you out of here. Now.

00:12:22Hold on a minute, Laura. Who the heck is this man? Have you been sneaking around?

00:12:27It's alright, ma'am. This is none of your business.

00:12:31You're not going anywhere until I tell you tell us what's going on.

00:12:34We are the Harrisons. You can't just walk around.

00:12:37You're not going anywhere until you tell us what's going on.

00:12:40We are the Harrisons. You can't just walk around.

00:12:45You can't just waltz in here and take her.

00:12:47Harrison, compared to the Shepard group, you're nobody. Now go back.

00:12:51What? Are you saying that is Brian Shepard?

00:12:54That's a lie!

00:12:55Don't you dare walk away from me, Laura!

00:12:57You come back here and explain yourself!

00:12:59Don't you take another step towards my son, Laura!

00:14:59Oh, Ben, do you really think that you can sign this contract without me?

00:15:04Laura, this is really important for me. Do not ruin this, okay?

00:15:08You don't belong here. Just get out!

00:15:11Oh.

00:15:16That's what you get.

00:15:22This contract is mine. To give or take away as I see fit.

00:15:29Don't be ridiculous. This is insane. Who do you think you are?

00:15:33Yeah, put that down. You have no idea what you're doing.

00:15:35Security! She's lost a mind! This is a disaster!

00:15:40Ben, this contract was supposed to be my birthday present to you,

00:15:44but since you clearly don't deserve it...

00:16:05You really think ripping up that contract is gonna help? You're so silly, Laura.

00:16:17Oh, please, honey. You couldn't explain business to a cleaning lady.

00:16:21Security! Get this woman out of here before she makes another mess.

00:16:24I was the one that started this deal with the shepherds.

00:16:27And after careful consideration,

00:16:30I don't think the Harrison family is worthy of working with the shepherds.

00:16:35You really think that the shepherd group and I could be torn up by something that you've done?

00:16:40You have no authority here.

00:16:42Of course she has the authority.

00:16:51That's the man that Laura went with the other day. What is he doing here?

00:16:54Mr. Shepard? How does he know her?

00:16:56Is that really Brian Shepard?

00:16:59Laura, are you alright?

00:17:02Mr. Shepard, I can assure you, I don't even know this woman. There must be some sort of misunderstanding.

00:17:07There's no misunderstanding here, Mr. Harrison.

00:17:10This contract with Shepard group is officially terminated.

00:17:14Effective immediately.

00:17:18Wait a minute. This contract, I thought you said you got it.

00:17:20It's her. She ruined the contract.

00:17:23You are his mistress, aren't you?

00:17:25An affair? She had an affair with that man behind my son's back?

00:17:31Mom, please, it's okay. This man is...

00:17:33Don't touch me! That woman destroyed your career in front of everyone, has an affair and you just stand there?

00:17:40You're a disgrace. An adulterer. You deserve to be arrested.

00:17:43Shut up!

00:17:46Mr. Shepard, I apologize for this whole mess, but I can assure you, this woman has tricked you.

00:17:52Tricked? Why don't you answer a question yourself, then?

00:17:58What was my name before we got married?

00:18:01Laura Lewis, right?

00:18:04Lewis Group? The Financial Giants?

00:18:07There's no way a Lewis is connected to this.

00:18:11That's crazy. There's no way you're related to the Lewis family name. That's absurd.

00:18:17It's... it's... it's absurd!

00:18:21A high society heiress wouldn't waste their time in Maplewood!

00:18:25Yeah. Yeah, it's a lie. It's a lie. This woman was a waitress when I met her. In fact, I saved her from a robbery three years ago.

00:18:33She's nothing special. She only married me out of gratitude.

00:18:36I was just a waitress. How convenient for your story, Ben.

00:18:41First time I met her, she was indeed a waiter at the diner.

00:18:45Okay, listen up, everybody. When I met her, I'd only just started my business.

00:18:49Mm-hmm. Now look at me. I'm signing multi-million dollar contracts. And look at her. Still just a cleaner.

00:18:56Mr. Shepherd, that woman is my son's ex-wife. She's doing all this out of spite!

00:19:02She's lying, Mr. Shepherd. She's just a cleaning lady for your business, isn't she?

00:19:08Let's make something clear. I was the one behind Harrison Group's success.

00:19:15I used my resources to help my ex-husband, but all he saw me as was the maid.

00:19:22Don't lie! You were never good enough for Ben when you married him. Oops!

00:19:27That roof was built with lies. Cathy, you never respected me.

00:19:32And Ben? Dumping me the second you thought you were successful on your own.

00:19:37And the cheating. I think you're blaming the wrong person.

00:19:43You were not good enough for Ben then, and you're certainly not good enough for him now!

00:19:47If you'd prefer to believe a liar's story, then the truth, Cathy.

00:19:54Consider this my resignation from the Harrisons. From everything.

00:20:03Wait, wait, wait, wait! Laura, you think you can just walk in here and, you know, ruin everything?

00:20:06And then just walk out like nothing happened?

00:20:08I don't think so. You're a cleaner. You're a cleaner that cleans toilets.

00:20:12Nobody cares about you.

00:20:14Cleaning toilets or not, at least I have my self-respect.

00:20:19I don't need a fancy title or a rich husband to feel important.

00:20:25I think there has been some sort of misunderstanding. I think all jobs are important, right, Mom?

00:20:32Ben, what are you doing?

00:20:34But I don't think that a janitor should have some sort of influence over a deal as big as this.

00:20:40A janitor?

00:20:41Well, why don't we ask Miss Smith exactly how she landed that collaboration with Shepard?

00:20:49You did claim to have been the one that secured the deal, weren't you, Miss Smith?

00:20:55Mr. Shepard, it's all a lie. This woman, Laura, she's just a gold digger trying to trick you.

00:21:02I... but, well...

00:21:04A lie, you say? Miss Smith, I believe you mentioned securing this contract for Harrison Group.

00:21:10But I don't recognize you.

00:21:12Is this true, Miss Smith?

00:21:14Miss Lewis has helped me on several occasions. This contract was my way of showing my appreciation.

00:21:23But the contract... I mean, Laura tore it up. So can't we just print another one and get this signing ceremony underway?

00:21:31Reprint it, Mr. Harrison. Perhaps you haven't been paying attention.

00:21:36Without Miss Lewis involvement, I wouldn't even consider partnering with your company.

00:21:43Today, I want to make it clear. Shepard Group has no plans to partner with Harrison Group in the future.

00:21:55Miss Smith, you lied to us. You destroyed everything.

00:21:59What? No, it's a misunderstanding. I can explain.

00:22:03Lewis? Lewis Family Group? This can't be.

00:22:07Believe what you want, Ben.

00:22:10Lewis Group will be holding a massive investment meeting later this week.

00:22:14Three of our vice presidents will be here in Maplewood.

00:22:19And I'm sure you can ask them if you still have any doubts about who I am.

00:22:25Everyone, listen to me. Shepard Group will not be partnering with Harrison Group.

00:22:33A man who can't keep his vows to his wife cannot be trusted to keep his word on a contract.

00:22:40The charade is over, Mr. Harrison. Everyone here deserves to see the truth.

00:22:47Miss Lewis, shall we take this conversation elsewhere?

00:22:50Someone get a doctor.

00:22:56Help!

00:22:58Someone get a doctor!

00:22:59Mom!

00:23:00It seems your night has taken quite the turn, Mr. Shepard.

00:23:06Indeed.

00:23:07Perhaps it's best to leave them to it.

00:23:21What? What now?

00:23:24Mom, this is not all on me.

00:23:26Not on you? I was trying to help.

00:23:29She cheated on you with Shepard.

00:23:32Flaunted their affair.

00:23:33Exactly.

00:23:35And those dresses?

00:23:36Who could afford those on a janitor's salary?

00:23:39Miss Smith, how could you do this?

00:23:42We trusted you completely.

00:23:44What? No, no.

00:23:45I got Ben the deal.

00:23:47I had no idea Shepard would fall for Laura.

00:23:50She's a liar.

00:23:52Oh, stop it, Amber.

00:23:53You lied to us just as much as she did.

00:23:56Lied?

00:23:57You're on my side.

00:23:59And anyways, I have a plan.

00:24:01The Shepards are no one special.

00:24:04We can expose Laura in all her lies.

00:24:06Go national.

00:24:08We can make ourselves a household name.

00:24:11Now, if you'll excuse me,

00:24:13I have a very important phone call to Nick.

00:24:20Thank you so much for tonight, Mr. Shepard.

00:24:23Thank you as well for standing up for me.

00:24:25It's all right, Laura.

00:24:27You deserve the credit for all your hard work.

00:24:29Can I ask you something?

00:24:30Do you have any place to stay tonight?

00:24:32Maybe a hotel?

00:24:34Don't worry about me, Mr. Shepard.

00:24:36I'll be fine.

00:24:38Excuse me, you can just drop me off.

00:24:40Actually, Laura, actually.

00:24:42Laura, there is something else.

00:24:44Would you consider going out for dinner sometime?

00:24:47Just casually, of course.

00:24:49Mr. Shepard, are you asking me out?

00:24:53Please, call me Brian.

00:24:55And yes, technically you're single now.

00:25:00Yes, that may be true, but going out with a newly divorced ex-cleaner isn't exactly proper.

00:25:11Proper?

00:25:13Laura, I don't give a damn about appearances.

00:25:17Tonight, I saw your intelligence and your strength.

00:25:21Those are qualities I truly admire.

00:25:25So what do you say?

00:25:27Dinner?

00:25:29Just two people getting to know each other.

00:25:31I'm sorry, Mr. Shepard. I actually have another appointment tonight, so I can't.

00:25:40Wait, Laura.

00:25:41Just here is fine.

00:25:45Laura?

00:25:50Laura, who is it?

00:25:52Laura, wait!

00:25:54Jason, find out who owns that car.

00:25:57And do it fast.

00:26:06Ian Lewis, who is this?

00:26:08It's Amber Smith.

00:26:10Mr. Lewis?

00:26:12I'm sorry for the late call, but I believe I have some urgent information about your family.

00:26:17I don't know who you are, Miss Smith.

00:26:19How did you get this number?

00:26:21Don't worry about that right now.

00:26:22I believe I know someone impersonating Laura Lewis. Someone I know very well.

00:26:28Impersonating my niece? And where is this fake Laura?

00:26:35Right here in Maplewood. And let me tell you, she's causing quite a scene.

00:26:41Well, what is she doing exactly? And more to the point, what do you want from me?

00:26:47In the next few days, the Lewis Group will hold an investment meeting, right?

00:26:53I want to meet with the Vice Presidents. All will be revealed then.

00:26:58Very well. I'll have my secretary arrange a meeting. But be warned, if this is a waste of my time, I...

00:27:06It won't be. Trust me, Mr. Lewis. Thank you, Mr.

00:27:10That little rascal, Laura. I wonder what she's up to now.

00:27:24That car belongs to Mr. Yeats, the Lewis family bubler.

00:27:29Oh, Lewis family. That's interesting. Could she be connected to them somehow?

00:27:38I'm not sure.

00:27:41Brian! There you are. I've missed you.

00:27:44Chloe.

00:27:46What are you up to?

00:27:48Chloe, what are you doing here?

00:27:50What do you mean? Can't I visit the man I love?

00:27:54We ended things for a reason.

00:27:56It was just one teensy mistake. I was... I was a little bit tipsy.

00:28:01Doesn't everyone deserve a second chance?

00:28:03Teensy mistake you said? You cheated on me.

00:28:05Is this your new fling? Ex-divorcey. Used a clean floor. It's quite the catch, aren't you saying?

00:28:18Look, my relationship with her is none of your business. And don't you dare talk about her like that.

00:28:25Please. An ex-cleaner turned social climber latching onto a wealthy businessman. It's a classic story.

00:28:31That's enough. I'll get the hell out of my office.

00:28:35You want to be careful, Brian. Duke Industries still holds a lot of weight in Maplewood.

00:28:41If you want Shepherd Group to stay afloat, you ought to be more careful.

00:28:45Seems like you've got more on your plate than Laura's secrets now.

00:28:57This is it. The Lewis Group Vice Presidents are on the top floor. Once I'm done speaking with them, I'll have Ben's company rolling in business investments.

00:29:05I'll go speak with them first, and then I'll introduce you.

00:29:09Well, well, well. Look who it is. What a surprise. Did Brian teach you already?

00:29:16That's none of your business. Now, move aside, please.

00:29:21Laura, just what do you think you're doing, you street rat? You really think you can just ruin my events again? Haven't you ruined my life enough? Don't you have any shame?

00:29:28If you'll excuse me, I have an important meeting to get to.

00:29:34Oh, the nerve. After everything you've done, you think you can just waltz in here and manipulate them too?

00:29:40Seriously? I think you need to reconsider exactly who's manipulating who here.

00:29:46Oh, that's gold. You really think that they're going to let you in, Laura? Please, you're no one compared to me.

00:29:51You don't deserve to be here. The only ones who don't belong here are you three. And you, idiot, believing every lie that she tells you. Wake up, Ben.

00:30:05Oh, Laura! Laura, come on. Why do you always pull this on me? I mean, seriously, can't you just let me enjoy one of my events for once? I know what this is.

00:30:15So stupid.

00:30:17Oh, such a trap! Amber spoke directly with the CEO. He invited her to meet with the VPs before the main meeting.

00:30:25Yeah, Amber got me a partnership with the Lewis Group.

00:30:29And unlike some people, I have a real invitation.

00:30:32Well, before you all start celebrating, why don't you take a look at this?

00:30:39Oh, that's rich. You may have Brian Shepard fooled, but you can't fool me. I spoke to Ian Lewis himself, CEO of Lewis Group.

00:30:50Speaking of Brian, where is he right now?

00:30:54You mean my uncle? Ian, don't be ridiculous.

00:30:59Ian Lewis personally gave me this invitation himself. And besides, this looks fake. She's a liar.

00:31:07This is a personal invitation from Mr. Yates himself. It grants me access to the VIP elevator, which leads straight to the Vice Presidential Suite.

00:31:18She's lying. They don't have a VIP elevator in this hotel.

00:31:25Is there a special elevator for VIPs in this hotel?

00:31:29Not that I know of.

00:31:31See? She's lying.

00:31:32There you have it, Laura. Even the hotel staff can spot a fake. Go on, get lost before things get worse.

00:31:42Here, take this one. Lead me to the Vice President's.

00:31:46You have no idea what you just did. There be consequences.

00:31:52Besides, if you have this relationship with Ian Lewis that you claim to have, why don't you just ask him to get the two of them an invitation?

00:32:04Security! Security! We need this woman removed immediately. She is harassing me. We're done with your games, Laura. You're just a fraud.

00:32:11Ma'am, play something with-

00:32:12What?

00:32:13Hold on!

00:32:17Brian Shepherd? You think money buys you the right to walk all over people? Well, it doesn't.

00:32:23Yeah. Wasn't enough to kick us out of Maplewood, was it, huh? What other plans do you have to destroy this time?

00:32:29Get you out? After what you did to Laura, you had it coming.

00:32:33Don't play dumb. We know exactly what's been happening here. How long has this little affair been going on? You've been sleeping with her since she was married to my son.

00:32:41Hold on a second. An affair? You think Laura and I? You people are unbelievable.

00:32:51Mr. Carter, get down here ASAP. We have a situation.

00:32:56What, you think you can just boss the manager around now? Is that it?

00:32:59Well, stick around and watch you crash and burn.

00:33:02Ms. Lewis, apologies for the delay. How can I help you this evening?

00:33:05Thank you, Mr. Carter, for getting down here so quickly. It seems there's a misunderstanding.

00:33:12These people don't think that I belong here.

00:33:15Well, Mr. Carter, I can assure you, this woman is a cleaner.

00:33:18A cleaner? Nonsense. I personally greeted Ms. Lewis upon her arrival in Maplewood three years ago.

00:33:24Exactly. Lewis Group, my company, has some major investments planned here in Maplewood.

00:33:33I was just here investigating potential business opportunities.

00:33:37No, this woman doesn't know the difference between business and a hole in the ground.

00:33:41She's been this way since my son divorced her. She's insane.

00:33:45Actually, I met Laura three years ago at the coffee shop.

00:33:48She helped secure a profitable investment for Shepard Group.

00:33:53No! It's a lie! Mr. Shepard, she's tricking you too!

00:33:59You know, it's exhausting trying to argue with people who forget who helped them.

00:34:06Mr. Carter, would you mind showing me to the VIP elevator?

00:34:10Wait, is that why you're covering for her? Because of the affair? Because she slept with you?

00:34:14Excuse me, who are you and how dare you speak to Ms. Lewis that way?

00:34:18Enough of this! She's right!

00:34:19That's enough! Have you here embarrass yourself enough?

00:34:22This is Lewis Group property. Behave or I'll call security!

00:34:26But she doesn't even have a VIP entrance access! She shouldn't be here.

00:34:31Since you're having trouble understanding, Ben, let me make it clear.

00:34:35This hotel is owned by the Lewis family. It's mine to come or go as I please.

00:34:47Thank you for stepping in, Brian. I owe you one. We'll talk about this later.

00:34:54Well, it seems divorcing a powerful woman wasn't the best decision, Mr. Harrison.

00:34:59Thank you so much.

00:35:05Come in!

00:35:08Excuse me, Vice Presidents. I'm Amber Smith, General Manager of the Lewis Group Maplewood Branch.

00:35:16I believe Ian Lewis told you about our meeting today?

00:35:19Maplewood Branch. Our records don't show any Maplewood Branch, Ms. Smith.

00:35:25Are you sure you haven't gotten something mixed up?

00:35:29Ian Lewis... Mr. Lewis reassured me that today we would discuss, well, expansion plans.

00:35:38Oh! Expansion plans? Ms. Smith?

00:35:42A decision like that wouldn't be taken without board approval.

00:35:45And frankly, we haven't heard anything about Maplewood Branch.

00:35:50But Ian Lewis assured me that...

00:35:52Ms. Smith, we have a very important guest arriving soon.

00:35:56Perhaps you'd like to schedule a follow-up meeting with one of our staff?

00:35:59Maybe I can stay for this guest and offer some local...

00:36:02Ms. Smith! We'd like you to leave. If you don't, we'll call security.

00:36:11Hey, stop there. This elevator is a VIP only. Back, please.

00:36:16Of course. My apologies.

00:36:18Laura?

00:36:20Vice-Presidents! It's so good to see all of you again.

00:36:31Ms. Lewis, it's been too long.

00:36:35Your return is a lifesaver, Ms. Lewis. The Lewis Group has floundered under your uncle's, well, shall we say, unconventional leadership.

00:36:43The board are begging you to come back, Ms. Lewis.

00:36:48Well, please sit. Yes, well, it is time for me to get my career back on track.

00:36:55We've got a meeting planned, a big one, in just a few days.

00:37:00Local powerhouses and smaller players, too. They'll all be there in one spot.

00:37:05Ms. Lewis, we met with an Amber Smith. She claimed your uncle appointed her general manager of a Maplewood branch for the Lewis Group.

00:37:18She said that, did she? Well, Ms. Smith is a liar. There is no Maplewood branch, at least not yet.

00:37:24She lied so blatantly, it was, it's unbelievable.

00:37:28Well, don't worry. I found a much more suitable partner.

00:37:34Shepard Group.

00:37:35Shepard Group? Their rise to a public company has been impressive.

00:37:40Do you have anything to do with that?

00:37:43So, what happens now with this Amber Smith?

00:37:47Oh, don't worry about Amber. I've got plans for her.

00:37:53Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha.

00:37:56Ms. Lewis, consider this your official invitation to the meeting from us.

00:38:05Cheers. Cheers.

00:38:15You too. Go.

00:38:16No, I'm not leaving. I'm not. What are you talking about? No, come on.

00:38:18Wait! I'm Amber Smith. I'm the Lewis Group manager of Maplewood branch. What are you doing? These are my games.

00:38:22Yeah, that's right. Tell them who we are.

00:38:25Yes, we were waiting for Ms. Smith.

00:38:29Lewis Group, Maplewood branch. No such thing, ma'am. And frankly, I'm not interested in your act.

00:38:35Of course. Laura. She's probably sleeping with the manager as well. That's how she gets away with everything.

00:38:41You underestimate her, Cathy. She's probably sleeping with all three vice presidents. No way a girl like her could get into a hotel like this.

00:38:49Careful with your words. Both of you. Accusations like that can get you in serious trouble.

00:38:55Look who can't even get into a meeting. Whilst I secure three with all the vice presidents. And let's not forget the mystery guest that they're bringing to Maplewood.

00:39:06Looks like she used you and tossed you aside.

00:39:09Used me? Unlike some people. I don't mind being helpful.

00:39:13You're so stupid. She threw you away like yesterday's trash.

00:39:18Don't worry, Brian. You deserve better. And let's not forget, I'm the new Maplewood branch manager of Lewis Group. Appointed by the CEO of Lewis Group themselves, Ian Lewis.

00:39:30New branch manager, huh? Interesting.

00:39:33Laura Lewis? What are you doing here? Get out of here!

00:39:37You claim to be the mystery guest.

00:39:40Don't play games, Laura. I was formally invited by Lewis Group themselves to the investment meeting. Only the top companies get those. Looks like you're all out of luck.

00:39:51Is that so? Well then, there seems to be a misunderstanding. You see, I'm not sure if you know Miss Smith, but Lewis Group is my company.

00:40:03And I decide who goes to the meetings.

00:40:07Escort them out. Their visit is over.

00:40:11Oh, come on. This way, please.

00:40:13I'm not leaving.

00:40:15Move. We're not leaving again. Move. Oh, no, no, no. We're not going now.

00:40:20Okay, fine, fine. This isn't over, Laura. You see.

00:40:25Thanks for waiting, Ben.

00:40:28Laura, I'm glad you're okay.

00:40:31Okay.

00:40:33And thank you for defending me. I really appreciate it.

00:40:40Um, are you coming to the meeting?

00:40:44Yes, but it's going to be tricky.

00:40:47Why? I'm sure that Shepard Group got an invitation.

00:40:56Yes.

00:40:58Laura, there's something you should know.

00:41:01Is... is this about Ben? Because I can assure you that he won't cause any problems. He won't even get past security.

00:41:12Laura, it's not Ben. It's someone else.

00:41:16Someone's causing problems for Shepard Group?

00:41:21Yes.

00:41:25Her name is Chloe Duke.

00:41:28She is daughter of the Duke family.

00:41:30She's my ex-fiancee.

00:41:34And, uh, let's say things didn't end so well between us.

00:41:40And...

00:41:42Let's just say we didn't end things so well.

00:41:45And for some reason, she's having a hard time moving on.

00:41:53And...

00:41:55You think that she's going to cause problems at the meeting?

00:42:00For...

00:42:03Out of...

00:42:05Jealousy?

00:42:07There's a possibility. She's kind of jealous.

00:42:10Well...

00:42:12All the more reason for you to be there.

00:42:15Besides...

00:42:17I'll be there too.

00:42:20Laura...

00:42:23Would you consider being a guest at the meeting?

00:42:26What?

00:42:28Are you worried that this Chloe is going to cause problems for me too?

00:42:32Maybe a little.

00:42:33But mostly...

00:42:35I want to show them we're a team.

00:42:37Well...

00:42:38It's a very kind offer, Mr. Shepard.

00:42:43Laura...

00:42:47I don't care about your past.

00:42:50I just want to be by your side.

00:42:52I think I'm falling for you.

00:42:58Ryan...

00:43:04I...

00:43:05I appreciate your honesty and...

00:43:08Right now...

00:43:09I...

00:43:10I'm just not...

00:43:11I...

00:43:12I just don't really have romance on my mind right now.

00:43:15Just with...

00:43:16With everything going on...

00:43:18And...

00:43:19Going on and...

00:43:20It's okay.

00:43:21I just want to be upfront.

00:43:23And if Chloe tries anything...

00:43:26You won't face her alone.

00:43:27There's just...

00:43:32One thing...

00:43:33I do need.

00:43:35What is it?

00:43:37A formal dress.

00:43:38Uh...

00:43:39Security!

00:43:40She doesn't belong here.

00:43:41This is a private store.

00:43:42Excuse me.

00:43:43We...

00:43:44Need some assistance.

00:43:45I'm looking for...

00:43:46A very particular dress.

00:43:47Mm-hmm.

00:43:48Wow.

00:43:49It's...

00:43:50Beautiful.

00:43:51Mm-hmm.

00:43:52It is.

00:43:53I'll try this one on.

00:43:54Uh...

00:43:55Don't bother with her.

00:43:56She can't afford anything here.

00:43:57She's just a cleaner.

00:43:58She doesn't deserve to shop here.

00:43:59She has no money.

00:44:00Uh...

00:44:01Uh...

00:44:02Security!

00:44:03She doesn't belong here.

00:44:04This is a private store.

00:44:05Excuse me.

00:44:06We...

00:44:07Need some assistance.

00:44:08I'm looking for...

00:44:09A very particular dress.

00:44:10Mm-hmm.

00:44:11Wow.

00:44:12It's...

00:44:13Beautiful.

00:44:14Mm-hmm.

00:44:15It is.

00:44:16I'll try this one on.

00:44:17Yeah, exactly.

00:44:18I mean, what are you doing here?

00:44:20Can't you just leave me alone?

00:44:21I wouldn't bat an eyelash if you just disappeared.

00:44:24I'm here for retail therapy.

00:44:26Oh, please.

00:44:28This store is for the A-list only.

00:44:30Mm-hmm.

00:44:31Not some cheapskate like you.

00:44:32Says the woman who barged into my marriage.

00:44:35Hey.

00:44:36Show some respect.

00:44:37Oh, wow.

00:44:38Typical Laura.

00:44:39Just thinks she can buy anything she wants with someone else's money.

00:44:42I would have asked you, but without me, I'm sure you're already broke.

00:44:46Oh, please.

00:44:47Come on.

00:44:48We'll take the dress.

00:44:49Sir, this particular dress is not for sale.

00:44:52Uh, what do you mean you don't sell it?

00:44:54I want it.

00:44:55Name your price.

00:44:56It's not about the price, ma'am.

00:44:59This one was custom-made for Miss Lewis, the Lewis Group heiress.

00:45:02The entire brand belongs to her.

00:45:04This beautiful dress is for display purposes only.

00:45:08It wouldn't suit you anyway, Amber.

00:45:11What are you talking about?

00:45:12Of course it would suit her.

00:45:13It'd fit her just fine.

00:45:14And if it wouldn't fit me, it certainly wouldn't fit your chunky self either.

00:45:18Well, buy in the whole store.

00:45:20Allow me to purchase this dress.

00:45:22Oh, please, don't you know that this store belongs to Lewis Group?

00:45:29We wouldn't sell it to someone like you.

00:45:31Amber, you're not even a branch manager yet.

00:45:34You don't get to speak on behalf of Lewis Group.

00:45:37Could you please tell me more about this dress?

00:45:40Of course.

00:45:41It was custom-made for Laura Lewis, heiress to the Lewis Group Fortune.

00:45:46Hand-stitched in Italy, naturally.

00:45:49Apparently there are many more like it.

00:45:51Displayed in high-end stores and museums around the world from her private collection.

00:45:57Laura, do you like this dress?

00:46:00Of course.

00:46:01It's custom-made for me.

00:46:03I'm just here to take what's already mine.

00:46:06Oh, you can't be serious.

00:46:08There must be millions of Laura Lewis's out there in the world.

00:46:11Fine, fine.

00:46:12If it's not for sale, can't I at least try it on?

00:46:15It would look incredible on me.

00:46:17Miss, this dress is very delicate.

00:46:20If I may be frank, I don't think this would fit you properly.

00:46:25Are you calling me fat?

00:46:26Actually, on a second thought, why don't we just buy the whole brand?

00:46:31How's that sound?

00:46:33Sir, are you serious?

00:46:34You would just buy the entire brand for one dress.

00:46:38This brand is worth at least 50 million dollars.

00:46:41And to buy it for a waitress?

00:46:44Are you out of your mind?

00:46:45Yes.

00:46:46You see, even if you had the money, they wouldn't sell it to you.

00:46:49Just one second.

00:46:50Yes, this is Brian Shepard, CEO of Shepard Group.

00:46:56I'd like to speak with your head of acquisitions.

00:46:59I'm interested in purchasing your high fashion brand.

00:47:03What?

00:47:05Sorry sir, that brand is not for sale.

00:47:11You see, if we can't have it, neither can you.

00:47:14Mr. Yates, yes, this is Laura Lewis.

00:47:20I'm calling to discuss the sale of our high-end clothing brand to Shepard Group.

00:47:27Oh, come on.

00:47:28Calling the Lewis family butler won't get you anywhere, sweetie.

00:47:32Exactly.

00:47:33Come on, this is pathetic.

00:47:34You really think this is going to work?

00:47:35It's sad.

00:47:36Excellent.

00:47:37Thank you, Mr. Yates, that's all.

00:47:46Yes?

00:47:51What?

00:47:52Are you willing to sell me the brand?

00:47:57Awesome.

00:48:02Hello?

00:48:03Yes?

00:48:05Wow, yes of course.

00:48:07Absolutely.

00:48:12The store, along with the entire brand, has been sold to Mr. Shepard.

00:48:16The Shepard Group is the new owner.

00:48:18How may I be of service today, sir?

00:48:21Well, Lauren, I don't know much about fashion, so I would like to give this brand to you.

00:48:27You can't be serious.

00:48:29You don't have the kind of money to buy this store.

00:48:31Don't listen to her, Brian.

00:48:34You two just go do whatever you do somewhere else.

00:48:37You're not welcome here.

00:48:39I want the two of these out of my store.

00:48:45I want the two of these out of my store.

00:48:47Of course.

00:48:48Oh, come on.

00:48:51Sir?

00:48:52Ma'am?

00:48:53You're afraid I have to ask you to leave?

00:48:54Well, we're not leaving.

00:48:55Okay?

00:48:56Hey, hey, hey!

00:48:57This isn't over, Laura!

00:48:59Could I try the dress on now?

00:49:00Of course, Miss Lewis.

00:49:02You just follow me.

00:49:03Wow.

00:49:04Miss Lewis, this dress really was made for you.

00:49:17Laura, you look breathtaking in this dress.

00:49:21Brian, why would you do all of this for me?

00:49:27Laura.

00:49:28Because you deserve everything beautiful in the world.

00:49:34And that includes this dress.

00:49:38Will you give us a chance to see where things could go?

00:49:44I...

00:49:45I need a moment.

00:49:47Perhaps we could talk some more about this after the investment meeting?

00:49:52Does that mean it could be a yes?

00:49:55Maybe.

00:49:56Hi.

00:49:57Hi.

00:49:58Hi.

00:49:59What?

00:50:00Well, well, well.

00:50:01Look who decided to join the party.

00:50:03Playing dress-up again, Laura?

00:50:04One more disrespectful remark towards Laura, Miss Smith.

00:50:07And you understand the meaning of rude.

00:50:08You threatening my girlfriend in front of everyone?

00:50:09For this?

00:50:10No.

00:50:11No.

00:50:12No.

00:50:13No.

00:50:14No.

00:50:15No.

00:50:16No.

00:50:17No.

00:50:18No.

00:50:19No.

00:50:20No.

00:50:21No.

00:50:22No.

00:50:23No.

00:50:24No.

00:50:25No.

00:50:26No.

00:50:27No.

00:50:28No.

00:50:29No.

00:50:30No.

00:50:31No.

00:50:32No.

00:50:33No.

00:50:34No.

00:50:35No.

00:50:36No.

00:50:37No.

00:50:38No.

00:50:39No.

00:50:40No.

00:50:41No.

00:50:42No.

00:50:43No.

00:50:44No.

00:50:45No.

00:50:46No.

00:50:47No.

00:50:48No.

00:50:49No.

00:50:50No.

00:50:51No.

00:50:52No.

00:50:53No.

00:50:54No.

00:50:55No.

00:50:56No.

00:50:57No.

00:50:58No.

00:50:59No.

00:51:00I'm sorry, Miss Smith, but your name's not on the guest list.

00:51:05What? That's impossible. I was invited by the CEO himself.

00:51:12Unfortunately, neither Harrison Group or Smith Group.

00:51:15Your name is on the list.

00:51:16What?

00:51:17Looks like you two won't be getting let in after all.

00:51:20You don't have an invitation. You're just here because of Brian.

00:51:24Let me see this. This doesn't even look real. It's different from mine.

00:51:31Why don't you ask her if it's real?

00:51:34This appears to be a VIP invitation from the Vice President.

00:51:39Please, right this way.

00:51:42We can continue this discussion later, if you manage to get in.

00:51:46Sir? Madam? We recommend you leave.

00:51:53There you are! How dare you steal my fiancé!

00:51:59There you are! How dare you steal my fiancé!

00:52:04Looks like another relationship bites the dust, Laura.

00:52:08Looks like stealing men is a hobby of yours.

00:52:11Get away from him! He's engaged to me!

00:52:14Hey, hey, hey. Hold your horses, Clay. That ended a long time ago.

00:52:18Engaged to you.

00:52:20Everyone in Maplewood knows what you did to Brian.

00:52:24Your relationship's history.

00:52:26That was just a little tiff.

00:52:28You really think that could tear us apart?

00:52:31Don't you know who I am?

00:52:34Don't pretend like you don't know.

00:52:36Oh, honey. She don't recognize royalty, let alone a duke.

00:52:40She's just a maid, remember?

00:52:42I don't have time for all this drama.

00:52:45Brian?

00:52:47Let's head inside.

00:52:49Brian!

00:52:50How could you choose this cleaner over me?

00:52:54Are you really gonna humiliate me in front of all of Maplewood?

00:52:58There's nothing left to say, Chloe.

00:52:59Don't make this a scene.

00:53:01Shall we?

00:53:03You okay, Miss Duke?

00:53:09And you are?

00:53:11Amber Smith.

00:53:12I'm the Maplewood branch manager of Lewis Group.

00:53:16What branch? I've never heard of it.

00:53:18What do you want from me?

00:53:19That Laura!

00:53:20She tore up my invitation.

00:53:22Do you think you can get me inside?

00:53:24What, your little manager title couldn't get you past the front door?

00:53:27Please don't waste my time.

00:53:32Let's move to our next door.

00:53:33Let's go!

00:53:34Thank you, Sarah.

00:53:35Oh, she's such a줘.

00:53:36Oh, God.

00:53:37If I can't have Brian, neither can you.

00:54:05The Duke family has more influence than you think.

00:54:09Chloe, good to see you. I've been expecting you.

00:54:12Uncle Jones, how are you?

00:54:14Good.

00:54:16I need your help with something.

00:54:18What is it? Anything for my little Chloe.

00:54:21It's Brian.

00:54:23Who's that woman? I thought you were...

00:54:26She's a con woman. She actually used to be a cleaner in his company.

00:54:30What? Are you saying Brian left you for a cleaner?

00:54:36She's pretending to be Louis to get close to him.

00:54:39What are you planning?

00:54:42I want to destroy Shepherd Group.

00:54:45Anyway, I am terribly sorry about Chloe.

00:54:51I had no idea she would be so... intense.

00:54:57What do you mean?

00:55:00You so should have taken her up on her offer.

00:55:03I mean, you guys are just... power couple.

00:55:07I see what you're doing. Power couple, you say?

00:55:13More like a disaster waiting to happen.

00:55:17Anyway, shall we take a seat?

00:55:20Actually, Brian, my seat is... it's up there.

00:55:26Really?

00:55:28She doesn't deserve to sit there.

00:55:30Excuse me.

00:55:31This is my VIP invitation.

00:55:34I can sit wherever I like.

00:55:37Hey, what do you think you're doing?

00:55:39This is signed by all three VPs of Louis Group.

00:55:42Where did you get this?

00:55:44Who did you have to sleep with?

00:55:46That's enough.

00:55:49This is getting us nowhere.

00:55:51Laura is my guest.

00:55:53And I will not tolerate any kind of disrespect towards her.

00:55:58Got it?

00:55:59Mr. Shepherd, what do you see in that woman?

00:56:03Miss Duke is a perfect match for you.

00:56:06She's from a good family, beautiful and successful.

00:56:10What more could you ask for?

00:56:12That's a good question.

00:56:14Not much, actually.

00:56:16Honesty, that's what I want.

00:56:20And love.

00:56:22Things that clearly, Chloe has no idea.

00:56:26I said I was sorry.

00:56:28What more do you want?

00:56:30I've watched Chloe grow up.

00:56:32She's like a daughter to me.

00:56:34I won't allow her to be spoken to like that.

00:56:40One more chance, Brian.

00:56:42Let's forget all this nonsense.

00:56:44Do it, Mr. Shepherd.

00:56:46Propose right here, right now.

00:56:49Brian?

00:56:51Well, is this how the Duke family handles business deals?

00:56:57By forcing a ring on someone?

00:57:01Do it, or you can kiss goodbye all future investments with the Duke family.

00:57:06Don't you dare.

00:57:07You're humiliating yourself.

00:57:08How dare you?

00:57:09Do you really like this nobody from nowhere?

00:57:10Yes.

00:57:11I like her.

00:57:12But I can't imagine someone like her, interested in me.

00:57:14The truth is, I wouldn't be here where I am today without her.

00:57:15Why would you choose someone like her?

00:57:16Exactly.

00:57:17This woman is trouble.

00:57:18She doesn't belong here.

00:57:19Throw her out.

00:57:20You do realize that there is no investment meeting without me.

00:57:21Interesting turn of events.

00:57:22I like her.

00:57:23I like her.

00:57:24I like her.

00:57:25But I can't imagine someone like her, interested in me.

00:57:27I like her.

00:57:28I like her.

00:57:29I like her.

00:57:30But I can't imagine someone like her, interested in me.

00:57:31I like her.

00:57:32And be here where I am today without her.

00:57:35Why would you choose someone like her?

00:57:38Exactly.

00:57:39This woman is trouble.

00:57:40She doesn't belong here.

00:57:42Throw her out.

00:57:43You do realize that there is no investment meeting without me?

00:57:48Interesting turn of events.

00:57:51Perhaps it's time we shed some light on your mysterious past.

00:57:55Do you actually think that just because you have the name Laura, that you're the missing heiress Laura Lewis?

00:58:01You know what, maybe you're right Chloe.

00:58:06Ridiculous.

00:58:07Is that what you've been telling everyone?

00:58:10I'm sure that the Duke family still values cooperation, but wow.

00:58:17Did I underestimate your foolishness, Chloe?

00:58:20You have no right to talk to Miss Duke like that.

00:58:23That's enough.

00:58:24You don't get to talk here.

00:58:26You got much effort.

00:58:27You dare to go against Miss Duke.

00:58:29And the same applies to everyone else here.

00:58:32Anyone who insults Laura.

00:58:34Leave us with a black eye.

00:58:36It's willing to offend the Duke for her.

00:58:38What kind of charm does she have?

00:58:40I want to be careful, Brian.

00:58:42Don't forget that this entire hotel chain is owned by the Lewis Group.

00:58:46Are you willing to get blacklisted for this public tantrum?

00:58:49The Lewis Group isn't blacklisting anyone, especially not Shepard Group.

00:58:59Lewis Group RS?

00:59:01You?

00:59:02Don't make me laugh.

00:59:04Security, remove these two impostors from the premises.

00:59:08Wait, Uncle Jones.

00:59:09Give Brian another chance.

00:59:12Choose, Brian.

00:59:14Me and the future you deserve.

00:59:16Or this...

00:59:17Fraud.

00:59:19Chloe.

00:59:21I have everything I ever wanted.

00:59:24Right here.

00:59:25And I wouldn't trade for all the power the Duke's holding member would.

00:59:29Fine.

00:59:36Short the stock of the Shepard Group.

00:59:38What?

00:59:40You forced my hand, Brian.

00:59:42Now Shepard Group is ruined.

00:59:44The Duke family, they can't be serious.

00:59:47Shepard Group is doomed.

00:59:49Brian, you don't have to do this for me.

00:59:52Laura, I will never let anyone bully you.

00:59:58Let alone them.

00:59:59Thank you, Brian, for...

01:00:03For believing in me.

01:00:05For protecting me.

01:00:08Now it's my turn to protect you.

01:00:17Listen carefully.

01:00:19I need you to protect the Shepard Group stock.

01:00:22At all costs.

01:00:24Don't let it drop.

01:00:26Even one cent.

01:00:28Do you understand?

01:00:30Wow.

01:00:31Award-winning performance, Laura.

01:00:34But you can't possibly control the stock market.

01:00:37Wanna put your money where your mouth is, Chloe?

01:00:42If...

01:00:44The Shepard stock holds...

01:00:46For the next five minutes...

01:00:51You owe me a public apology.

01:00:59Deal.

01:01:03Well...

01:01:05Looks like your five minutes is up.

01:01:09Let's see how the Shepard stock is doing.

01:01:11What the...

01:01:16The Shepard Group stock prices?

01:01:18It's going up!

01:01:20This can't be happening.

01:01:21It must be a coincidence.

01:01:29Why didn't you short the stock like I asked?

01:01:32There was a huge investment.

01:01:33We couldn't compete.

01:01:34Shepard stock price is being heavily supported.

01:01:38How did you do this?

01:01:41Like I said, Chloe...

01:01:44I'm...

01:01:45Laura Lewis.

01:01:47No, you're not.

01:01:48You're just some clean-up.

01:01:49You don't have access to billions.

01:01:51Well...

01:01:53I think it's time for my apology.

01:02:00No.

01:02:02I think it's time for my apology.

01:02:03There is no way I'm apologizing to you.

01:02:06If things were the other way, would you be so quick to forgive me?

01:02:10Chloe?

01:02:12The truth is...

01:02:14Everyone here...

01:02:16Has seen you be a bully.

01:02:18And a coward.

01:02:20And now...

01:02:22A sore loser.

01:02:24This is so humiliating for her.

01:02:27How did she manage that?

01:02:29Maybe she really is a Lewis.

01:02:30Apologize to Miss Lewis.

01:02:34Shut up.

01:02:35Don't you dare talk about Miss Duke like that.

01:02:38Don't forget...

01:02:39The Duke finally owned half of Maplewood.

01:02:41Needle is always.

01:02:43Let's get out of here.

01:02:45Hold on.

01:02:47This...

01:02:49Is where I belong.

01:02:51And that...

01:02:53Is my chair.

01:02:55You can't go there. That is the VIP section.

01:02:57Only those invited by the Lewis Group Vice Presidents get to sit there.

01:03:02Like I said, Chloe...

01:03:04That's my seat.

01:03:10Had a rumor floating around a few days ago.

01:03:14Seems Miss Lewis caused quite a scene at a signing ceremony between her ex and Mr Shepherd.

01:03:22Wasn't it?

01:03:23Are you planning another outburst, Laura?

01:03:25Is this how you charm all your men?

01:03:27Shall we?

01:03:29My pleasure.

01:03:31What are you doing?

01:03:33Let go.

01:03:35It doesn't matter what happened.

01:03:36I choose to stay by Laura's side.

01:03:39Let's go.

01:03:41Don't be absurd.

01:03:42That seat is reserved for a very important guest.

01:03:45Someone so esteemed, even the Vice Presidents have to bow low.

01:03:53And...

01:03:55How exactly, Mr Jones?

01:03:58Are you so sure that I'm not that esteemed guest?

01:04:01Wait.

01:04:02That's Peter Young.

01:04:03Director of Business Affairs at Lewis Group.

01:04:09Oh, it's Peter Young.

01:04:10He decides which investments are they?

01:04:11Mr Young.

01:04:12It's Chloe Duke.

01:04:13Head of Duke Industries.

01:04:14So glad you could join us.

01:04:16Why is everyone standing around?

01:04:17It's her.

01:04:19She's making a huge scene trying to claim the VIP seat.

01:04:22It's embarrassing.

01:04:23That seat's reserved for the Lewis Group VIP guest.

01:04:27Specifically the family heir.

01:04:29Please get off the stage.

01:04:31Oh, yes.

01:04:33Mr Young, was it?

01:04:35I think I remember you.

01:04:36You manage my family's investments.

01:04:40Don't pretend like you know what's going on.

01:04:43Please get off the stage.

01:04:45That seat's reserved for the Lewis family heir.

01:04:48I need to make one thing crystal clear.

01:04:54I am the heir of the Lewis family.

01:05:03This is ridiculous.

01:05:05You, the Lewis heir.

01:05:07Don't you know that Miss Lewis is a legend around here?

01:05:10You must be out of your mind trusting a complete stranger like this.

01:05:13Exactly.

01:05:14We ran a background check on her,

01:05:16and it turns out she's just some cleaner that used to work for the Harrison Group.

01:05:20Before that, I could see her in my family's supermarket.

01:05:23See, Brian?

01:05:25This is who you've been chasing after.

01:05:26A liar and a cheat.

01:05:28Security!

01:05:30Get this imposter out of here.

01:05:31And everyone here is a witness.

01:05:33Why would any of you trust Laura?

01:05:36If any of you dares to harm her, you have to go through me first.

01:05:42Brian, she's just a nobody.

01:05:45She's just someone that the Harrison Group ditched.

01:05:47They didn't even want her.

01:05:50What exactly do you see in her?

01:05:52Escort this imposter out of here.

01:05:54Now!

01:05:55Oh, Peter.

01:06:03Peter, do you have any idea what you're doing?

01:06:07Hey, Mr. Yates.

01:06:08I'm so glad you could join us.

01:06:09Miss Lewis, sorry about the delay, and for all the trouble you've had to put up with.

01:06:18It's no trouble, Mr. Yates.

01:06:21Luckily, I haven't been alone.

01:06:22I've had the great company of my very loyal friend.

01:06:29Wait a minute.

01:06:30She's Miss Lewis.

01:06:31Is this a joke?

01:06:33Mr. Young, you're new to the Lewis Group, so I can understand why you wouldn't recognize Miss Lewis.

01:06:40But you listened to lies without checking the facts.

01:06:44And almost called the police.

01:06:47Tell me, Mr. Young, who put you up to this?

01:06:51Is that my uncle, Ian Lewis?

01:06:57I knew it.

01:07:00Consider this your termination.

01:07:04I get it now.

01:07:06This is all an act.

01:07:07Right?

01:07:08Chloe, what are you doing?

01:07:09We still want to work with the Lewis family.

01:07:11Work with them?

01:07:12Are you blind?

01:07:13This woman is clearly having an affair with this old man.

01:07:16That's enough, young lady.

01:07:18You've got no right to disrespect the head of the Lewis Group.

01:07:22Oh, Chloe.

01:07:24I can't believe we're going through this again.

01:07:26I think you need some professional help.

01:07:30Maybe I could make you an appointment with a great psychiatrist.

01:07:33Chloe, that's enough.

01:07:34It's ridiculous.

01:07:35If you were really the Lewis family heir, you would have the ring.

01:07:38So why don't you show it to everyone?

01:07:39Show us the ring!

01:07:40Show us the ring!

01:07:45Why don't you show that to everyone?

01:07:46Show us the ring!

01:07:47Show us the ring!

01:07:48Show us the ring!

01:07:49Show us the ring!

01:07:50Who are you to make demands of me?

01:07:53I don't answer to anyone but myself.

01:07:56I don't need any of your validation.

01:08:03There's a ring!

01:08:05Wow.

01:08:07First Presidents!

01:08:09I'm Chloe Duke of the Duke family.

01:08:12This woman is an imposter!

01:08:14Miss Lewis, we apologise for the delay.

01:08:17How could you just let that con woman sit there?

01:08:20Get her out of here!

01:08:21This seat was always for Miss Lewis.

01:08:24She's the special guest we've been waiting for.

01:08:28The investment queen.

01:08:30The real heir to Lewis Group.

01:08:32Laura Lewis!

01:08:34She was a divorced host wife!

01:08:36A janitor! How can she?

01:08:38She can't be! It's a lie! I'm telling you, it's a lie!

01:08:41Do you think we'd lie?

01:08:43We run Lewis Group!

01:08:45Oh, Chloe.

01:08:47You assaulted me earlier.

01:08:48And you came to this meeting to what?

01:08:52Sabotage it.

01:08:54You'll be hearing from our legal team.

01:08:59Is this true, Miss Duke?

01:09:01Did you try and sabotage this meeting?

01:09:03Yes.

01:09:05It's all true.

01:09:07She fooled us all.

01:09:09The Duke tricked us to keep Lewis Group out of Maplewoods

01:09:12and control everything themselves.

01:09:14I had no idea.

01:09:16But I'm on your side.

01:09:18I can give you everything you need.

01:09:20All the resources in Maplewoods.

01:09:22Miss Lewis.

01:09:24How would you like us to deal with this?

01:09:26An eye for an eye.

01:09:31Since Miss Duke here loves ruining things,

01:09:37I'll target her precious Duke Industries.

01:09:42I want them bankrupt in 10 minutes.

01:09:45You're bluffing.

01:09:47You're nobody.

01:09:49You'll always be a nobody.

01:09:50And you can't touch me.

01:09:52Then consider this a test, Chloe.

01:09:56I didn't need my family's support with Shepard,

01:09:59and I certainly don't need it now.

01:10:01Chloe, you dug your own grave.

01:10:03You think you can destroy Maplewoods leading family with just the Shepard group?

01:10:09Please.

01:10:11We'll see.

01:10:18Dad?

01:10:20Slow down.

01:10:21What are you talking about?

01:10:23No.

01:10:26It's impossible.

01:10:28Chloe, what have you done?

01:10:30Years of hard work.

01:10:31Destroyed in minutes.

01:10:36What did you do?

01:10:38Well, Chloe?

01:10:41Isn't this what you wanted?

01:10:43To give me a little taste of destruction?

01:10:46This is impossible.

01:10:48It's impossible!

01:10:49Chloe!

01:10:50What have you done?

01:10:52The news is everywhere!

01:10:54Shepard's launched a full-scale assault on the stock market.

01:10:57They're hammering our shares!

01:11:00Are you sure it's just Shepard?

01:11:02Yes!

01:11:03Shareholders are dumping our stock like it's a hot potato.

01:11:06We could go bankrupt!

01:11:08You've ruined everything!

01:11:10Don't worry, Mr. Duke.

01:11:12When your company does go bankrupt, I'll buy it.

01:11:15At a fire sale price.

01:11:17Your employees won't even be affected.

01:11:19Brilliant!

01:11:20A masterstroke, Ms. Lewis!

01:11:23Now, this is my event.

01:11:27Please leave.

01:11:29Brian, I did this for us!

01:11:31Everything I did, I did for us, Brian!

01:11:35Chloe, you need help.

01:11:38These feelings you have for me, it's not love.

01:11:43It's obsession.

01:11:44Enough!

01:11:45If you don't want to ruin everything completely, you'll come with me.

01:11:49Right now.

01:11:51No!

01:11:52Right now!

01:11:54No!

01:11:55Ryan!

01:12:01Laura!

01:12:02This isn't over!

01:12:04Get out of me!

01:12:06Ryan!

01:12:07You hear me?

01:12:09What is going on here?

01:12:12Did they finally expose Laura's lies?

01:12:14Shepard Group.

01:12:16They're the new partner that's partnering up with Lewis Group for Maplewood.

01:12:19They're handling all future construction projects.

01:12:22That can't be!

01:12:24What about us? That was our project!

01:12:26Remember, Laura teamed up with Brian.

01:12:28Harrison Group is practically out.

01:12:30We have no chance.

01:12:31We can't give up that easily.

01:12:33Remember, Ian Lewis himself appointed me as general manager.

01:12:37In a few days, he promised that he would let us meet with the new heir.

01:12:41You're right. If we can just meet with the new heir, we can bypass the Shepards and meet directly with the Lewis Group.

01:12:47We just have to play their little game and see who comes out on top.

01:12:51That's right.

01:12:52Vice Presidents, allow me to introduce my associate, Brian Shepard.

01:13:01I'm sure I've mentioned him before.

01:13:03Mr. Shepard, it's finally a pleasure to meet you.

01:13:06We've looked into your company's financial review.

01:13:10Very impressive.

01:13:14A large part of that success is thanks to Ms. Lewis.

01:13:17No.

01:13:18She practically saved me from disaster. Three times over now.

01:13:22Brian, you can just call me Laura.

01:13:25Ms. Lewis's recommendation is very telling, Mr. Shepard.

01:13:30Perhaps today clarifies everything.

01:13:33Mr. Shepard, this opportunity is golden. Seize it.

01:13:38A woman like Laura is not easy to find.

01:13:42Thank you for your kind words, Mr. Vice President.

01:13:44Did Laura send you to kill me?

01:13:54Laura? Hardly.

01:13:56I'm Ian Lewis, CEO and rightful heir of the Lewis Group.

01:14:03So you're Laura's uncle?

01:14:05In the flesh.

01:14:07So Laura really is your niece?

01:14:09Yes, little Laura.

01:14:11She just threw away her birthright about two, three years ago.

01:14:16Ran off and married a nobody from Maplewood.

01:14:19I think he was a Harrison.

01:14:21Now Laura's got the VPs and Mr. Yates on her side.

01:14:24Did you hear she's throwing a banquet in a few days to announce her official takeover?

01:14:28And we can't let that happen, can we, my dear?

01:14:31If you're Ian Lewis, wouldn't you have the family ring?

01:14:34Well, my dear, that's where you come in, Miss Duke.

01:14:38We need you to relinquish my ring.

01:14:42What if I, what if I fail?

01:14:44My family is already ruined.

01:14:46Yes, you are in a spot of bother, I must say.

01:14:49But, if successful, I guarantee that you and the Duke family will get back everything you've lost.

01:14:56Laura's got the VPs and Brian on her side. How can I possibly get the ring?

01:15:01There is a way, you know, that we can make Laura relinquish and give up that ring willingly.

01:15:11Laura, my dear, welcome.

01:15:13Uncle Ian, it's so good to see you.

01:15:16It's so good to see you.

01:15:19Laura.

01:15:20It's so good to see you.

01:15:22And you, it's been too long, two, three years perhaps. How have you been?

01:15:28I've been well, Uncle Ian. Thank you for asking.

01:15:32I see you've been busy keeping Lewis Group afloat.

01:15:36Yes.

01:15:38Indeed, somebody had to. I mean, after you left me with everything to do, without a safe pair of hands, I hate to think it would have happened to the company.

01:15:47Actually, Uncle Ian, from what I've heard, you've lost billions with some questionable investment decisions.

01:15:56Yes. Minor mistakes. Minor.

01:15:59Don't worry, Uncle Ian. I won't hold it against you.

01:16:03Good. Well, cheers to you coming back here.

01:16:07And the Lewis Group.

01:16:12I'm so sorry, Laura. How clumsy of me.

01:16:16No, no worries, Uncle Ian. I...

01:16:19I'll just go to the restroom and get cleaned up.

01:16:22Of course.

01:16:24Right away. Just down to the left.

01:16:31Use it wisely.

01:16:33Oh, I will.

01:16:35I'm so sorry.

01:16:37I'm so sorry.

01:16:39I'm so sorry.

01:16:41I'm so sorry.

01:16:42I'm so sorry.

01:16:43I'm so sorry.

01:16:45I'm sorry.

01:16:47I'm sorry.

01:16:49How are you?

01:16:50Hi, Laura.

01:16:52How's that?

01:16:54Hello, Brian.

01:16:56Your little girlfriend is with me now.

01:16:58Chloe...

01:17:00How in the hell did you get Laura's home?

01:17:03Let's just say that I have my ways.

01:17:04Don't hurt her. Please, I'll do anything.

01:17:08Come to the abandoned warehouse in the eastern suburbs. Now.

01:17:15Don't tell anyone if you want her alive.

01:17:20Well, you certainly do have your ways.

01:17:26Oh, thank goodness you've cleared up. I am sorry. How clumsy.

01:17:30And don't forget your phone. I retrieved it for you.

01:17:33Thank you. I'm going in.

01:17:35Lovely to see you again.

01:17:36I guess I'll see you the day after tomorrow at the banquet.

01:17:39At the banquet.

01:17:42I'll see you then.

01:17:44Will do. Looking forward to it.

01:17:48Laura! Laura! Where are you?

01:17:51Laura! Laura! Where are you?

01:17:56God, Laura. Laura, where are you?

01:17:59Laura!

01:18:04Gotcha.

01:18:07You weren't expecting that, were you?

01:18:09Finally.

01:18:19Looks like your little boyfriend got turned around.

01:18:23What the?

01:18:24Laura, where are you? Laura? Laura?

01:18:26Go shut your mouth.

01:18:28Chloe.

01:18:29What have you done?

01:18:31You out of your mind?

01:18:32Out of my mind!

01:18:33You were the one that left me for that tramp and destroyed my life!

01:18:37That's not true. You were the one who messed up!

01:18:40Brian!

01:18:41Laura!

01:18:44Stay where you are.

01:18:45You better come alone.

01:18:47Shut this knife, Chloe.

01:18:50This is insane!

01:18:51Insane?

01:18:52I did this for us, Brian!

01:18:55We were meant to be together.

01:18:57Oh my god.

01:18:58Us?

01:18:59You've gone crazy!

01:19:00And you're out of here!

01:19:01Chloe, kidnapping is a very serious offence.

01:19:06They're going to lock you up for years!

01:19:08You think I care about jail time?

01:19:11All I care about is tearing you two apart!

01:19:14You don't deserve him!

01:19:16What you've done!

01:19:18You've destroyed my life!

01:19:20My company!

01:19:21Everything!

01:19:22Now I'm going to destroy your life!

01:19:25Give me the family ring now!

01:19:28Give it to me!

01:19:30This is about the ring!

01:19:32Did my Uncle Ian put you up to this?

01:19:35You know, Chloe, trying to kill me.

01:19:40That's foolish.

01:19:42Because who do you think is going to win?

01:19:45You?

01:19:46That little knife?

01:19:47Or...

01:19:49Me?

01:19:50With something a little bit more persuasive.

01:20:01Freeze!

01:20:02Don't move anyone!

01:20:05Don't move!

01:20:07You're about to be arrested for kidnapping!

01:20:10Miss Lewis!

01:20:11Having fun without me!

01:20:13I'm hurt!

01:20:14Are you...

01:20:16Are you hurt?

01:20:18No, I'm okay.

01:20:19I'm okay.

01:20:20I'm okay.

01:20:22Tell me, Chloe.

01:20:24Who put you up to this, Chloe?

01:20:27Why should I tell you?

01:20:29You're going to kill me anyway!

01:20:31Chloe, I don't have a problem with you.

01:20:33But if you don't talk, your beloved Duke Industries might run into some.

01:20:41Oh, I'm recording everything, Miss Lewis.

01:20:44So the choice is yours, Chloe.

01:20:47Talk, or face the consequences.

01:20:50Fine.

01:20:51It was Ian Lewis.

01:20:52He...

01:20:53He said he'd help Duke Industries if I kept you away from the banquet today.

01:20:57Did you get all of that, Mr. Yates?

01:21:00I'm recording everything, Miss Lewis.

01:21:06Oh, every word, Miss Lewis.

01:21:08Are you ready to play a game, Brian?

01:21:21This is crazy.

01:21:22Are we really sure we can do this?

01:21:23All these big companies here, it's crazy.

01:21:25Absolutely.

01:21:26The Lewis Group is under new leadership.

01:21:29We can talk to the heiress herself.

01:21:31Exactly.

01:21:32We just need to make sure we make a good impression on the new heir.

01:21:35There's Ian Lewis now.

01:21:37You can introduce us.

01:21:38Let's go.

01:21:39Yeah.

01:21:42Hello, Ian Lewis.

01:21:43I'm Amber Smith.

01:21:44We spoke on the phone the other day.

01:21:46This is Ben Harrison from Harrison Group.

01:21:48How do you do?

01:21:49We're the company that...

01:21:50Yes, I know who you are.

01:21:51Smith, you're the one who exposed Laura's little drama.

01:21:55Now, look, I'm not here for idle chatter.

01:22:02Good evening, ladies and gentlemen.

01:22:03Can I ask you all to be seated, please?

01:22:08The moment you've all been waiting for.

01:22:10Tonight marks a new chapter in the life of the Lewis Group.

01:22:14A night where the rightful heir takes their place.

01:22:17Would you please join me in welcoming the heir to the Lewis Group, Miss Laura Lewis.

01:22:23Look, everybody, attention.

01:22:25Attention, please.

01:22:26There's been a recent development of some tragedy.

01:22:33I just got notice from a phone call a couple of minutes ago that Laura has been in a car accident.

01:22:41And, tragically, she hasn't made it.

01:22:44She has not survived.

01:22:48What?

01:22:49Laura Lewis is dead?

01:22:51It doesn't matter now.

01:22:52She's gone.

01:22:53Mr. Lewis, is this new...

01:22:55A tragic turn of events, Mr. Yates.

01:22:57But rest assured, the Lewis Group will continue under my competent leadership.

01:23:04Hold on.

01:23:05Who said that I'm dead?

01:23:09Laura.

01:23:14I don't understand.

01:23:15What's happening?

01:23:17Laura?

01:23:18But weren't you...

01:23:20My apologies for the delay, everyone.

01:23:23There seems to be some...

01:23:25Misunderstanding.

01:23:26Laura, what are you doing here?

01:23:28You've got to stop this.

01:23:29If you upset the Lewis family anymore, we're all doomed.

01:23:32I'll say this once.

01:23:33Back off, Ben.

01:23:40Thank you for coming, everyone.

01:23:42As I'm sure you know, tonight, I officially reclaim my title as the CEO of Lewis Group.

01:23:53Perhaps you could make some room for me, Uncle Ian.

01:23:58Impossible.

01:23:59How are you still alive?

01:24:01Well, clearly I am alive and well, so why don't we get this started?

01:24:06No.

01:24:07You're not the rightful heir.

01:24:09You gave that away when you married Ben Harrison.

01:24:13Uncle Ian, is that seriously your argument that you have that I got married too quickly?

01:24:18Well, you went off to Maplewood three years ago and married a stranger and left me to work tirelessly keeping the company together.

01:24:26Uncle Ian, retire.

01:24:28Enjoy your retirement.

01:24:30Lewis Group will be perfectly fine without you.

01:24:33No.

01:24:34There can only be one heir, and that's me.

01:24:38And the rightful heir has possession of this.

01:24:42You think a ring makes an heir?

01:24:45You're even more foolish than I could have ever imagined.

01:24:48Give that back to me.

01:24:51This?

01:24:52Yes.

01:24:53You think some shiny gold thing makes you the heir?

01:24:57Give it back.

01:24:58True leadership is about earning the respect of those around you.

01:25:05Not some stupid ring.

01:25:08My ring!

01:25:09What have you done?

01:25:10Where is it?

01:25:13My ring!

01:25:14Oh!

01:25:15Now, everyone, if I could have your attention.

01:25:18How dare you!

01:25:19Now, let me show you how a true heir earns a ring like that.

01:25:27Talk, or face the consequences.

01:25:29Fine.

01:25:30It was Ian Lewis.

01:25:32He said he helped Jake industry if I kept you away from the bankers today.

01:25:36Oh, quite the spectacle, Mr Lewis.

01:25:41Security, escort him out.

01:25:44And Ian, don't fall over.

01:25:47It's all lies!

01:25:48It's all lies!

01:25:49Fakery!

01:25:50It's fake news!

01:25:51The proof is clear!

01:25:52Get him out of here!

01:25:53Now!

01:25:56I owe all of you an apology for everything that's happened tonight.

01:26:01Turns out reclaiming my birthright didn't go as smoothly as I had hoped.

01:26:07Luckily, these past few days, I've had Mr Shepherd by my side.

01:26:14And he has been a great support.

01:26:18Lewis Group has a lot of exciting plans for Maplewood.

01:26:23I'm proud to announce that we have secured a reliable partner.

01:26:32Shepherd Group.

01:26:33What?

01:26:34Laura, hold on.

01:26:35This was never my idea.

01:26:37This was all Kathy and Amber's fault.

01:26:39I don't want a divorce.

01:26:40What?

01:26:41Then what are you saying?

01:26:42You came to me first.

01:26:44Classic Ben.

01:26:45Something goes wrong and you start pointing the fingers at all the women in your life.

01:26:50Just don't shut Harrison Group out.

01:26:52Just give me another chance.

01:26:54How could I shut you out?

01:26:56I'm just a cleaner, remember?

01:26:58I'm just a useless housewife.

01:27:00I don't have that power.

01:27:04What are you talking about?

01:27:05What?

01:27:06No, come on.

01:27:07Sorry.

01:27:08No, please.

01:27:09No.

01:27:10Um, Mr Shepherd?

01:27:11Yes, Ms Lewis.

01:27:12I was wondering if...

01:27:16Maybe you wanted to grab dinner.

01:27:19Sometime.

01:27:20On me.

01:27:22Ms Lewis.

01:27:24I would love to.

01:27:41Pamu 90 Jordan confused.

01:27:42I was wondering if you remember how am I supposed to do this.

01:27:47From her place to take him but he doesn't know that I'd be back.

01:27:52He doesn't know how bad it was.

01:27:54And that, it's not!

01:27:55From some places we see everywhere now.

01:27:57He's too wrapped.

01:27:58And he's отbe Awesome!

01:27:59Fantastic Noah!

01:28:00Where is he?

01:28:01He's got his happy boy.

01:28:02And I was deceiving boy.

01:28:04He's too passionate about me.

01:28:06But I have really got his
