Short filmTranscript
00:00:00Let Leon go. I'm marrying Vincent like you asked.
00:00:10Patience is a virtue. Besides, the groom isn't even here yet.
00:00:15Stay back.
00:00:16Leon?
00:00:18Your brother only breathes because I allow it.
00:00:22Don't test me, Bella Miller.
00:00:24Don't hurt him!
00:00:28That's not up to you.
00:00:30I can't wait to meet the Vincent Owens.
00:00:33Filth pair with filth. There won't be a more fitting match.
00:00:37Who has it that he's a booze hound?
00:00:39Squandering money like he made it himself.
00:00:42He doesn't even care about his family.
00:00:45He's worthless. Not fit to shine Reginald's shoes.
00:00:49Rightful heir.
00:00:50I heard he likes to hang with common gangster scum.
00:00:54I'm so scared.
00:00:56Don't worry, babe. I got this.
00:00:58Vee, where are you? I don't want to marry a stranger.
00:01:05Do you know who I am?
00:01:09I work for Reginald Owens.
00:01:12You're dead. Dead!
00:01:14Quit your yapping.
00:01:17Lab dog.
00:01:19Vincent Owens?
00:01:20How dare you defy your brother, Reginald?
00:01:22He's your brother, the true heir.
00:01:28That bastard child?
00:01:29Doesn't matter anymore.
00:01:31Mrs. Owens bit the dust ten years ago.
00:01:33All for the family.
00:01:34Your dad doesn't seem to mind, though.
00:01:37That might be true.
00:01:39But he and his mother murdered mine.
00:01:42How is that possible?
00:01:44That is none of your concern.
00:01:45What?
00:01:48You either listen to me, the true heir, or you die.
00:01:59Sir, the wedding's about to start.
00:02:02Bride's waiting.
00:02:04Wedding.
00:02:05The engagement arranged by Mr. Harold.
00:02:09The young lady from the Miller family.
00:02:11You promise?
00:02:13Still, appearances must be kept, yes?
00:02:17Typical. He's late.
00:02:25Sir, um, uh, Bella Miller?
00:02:29Uh, sorry. It's business. You understand.
00:02:33It's okay.
00:02:35I'm leaving here.
00:02:43Isn't that a good thing?
00:02:44But I...
00:02:45What about you?
00:02:50Here.
00:02:59For when we meet again.
00:03:02It's so beautiful.
00:03:05I'm gonna become the best designer in the world, and design the best necklace.
00:03:10Why are you here, Serena?
00:03:12And how did you become...
00:03:14Bella Miller?
00:03:22Mr. Owens.
00:03:25I'm...
00:03:25I'm sorry.
00:03:26Um...
00:03:27Shall we proceed?
00:03:29We are all gathered before God here today.
00:03:32Vincent, do you take Miss Miller as your wife?
00:03:35I do.
00:03:36I do.
00:03:39Bella, do you take Mr. Owens as your husband?
00:03:42I do.
00:03:43I do.
00:03:43I do.
00:03:54Aww.
00:03:55Match made in heaven.
00:03:57Bravo.
00:03:58I did what you said. Now honor our agreement.
00:04:02Agreement?
00:04:03Mom, do you know anything about an agreement with Mrs. Owens?
00:04:08Of course.
00:04:10Serena said when she marries you to the Owens family, she will pay us back for our kindness.
00:04:14Tenfolds.
00:04:15What?
00:04:16I never said that.
00:04:17Serena, you are so selfish.
00:04:20If we hadn't picked you out of that orphanage, you would never be enjoying the wonderful life that you are today.
00:04:27What do you want? Five hundred thousand?
00:04:29Five hundred thousand? Have some self-worth, Serena.
00:04:35You kept me in a basement for ten years. Leon and I had to feed off of table scraps. What more could you take from me?
00:04:42I'm sorry. Is something the matter?
00:04:44Oh, the dashing husband now, are we? We were just discussing the debt of gratitude he owes.
00:04:57Well, how much is it? I'll take care of him.
00:05:00You? Can you afford it?
00:05:07Five million. Is that enough?
00:05:08No. Sounds good.
00:05:10That's great.
00:05:11You think your grandpa's table scraps is enough?
00:05:16Okay, well, what do you want?
00:05:18All of it.
00:05:19I want you out of this family.
00:05:24I'll bark and no bite.
00:05:26As per the usual.
00:05:29Just let this be a warning.
00:05:31Don't come near me or mine ever again.
00:05:33Now, if you'll excuse me.
00:05:36Let go of me. Why do you care?
00:05:38I'm helping you.
00:05:39You think money can solve everything?
00:05:41They are keeping my brother prisoner.
00:05:43I'm sorry. I didn't know that.
00:05:45Let me make this clear.
00:05:47You are not the man that I wish to marry.
00:05:49And that five million, I will pay you back as soon as I can.
00:05:52Money is not that...
00:05:53Okay, look.
00:05:54I know that you don't see us as a real couple.
00:05:57But we need to look the part for grandpa.
00:05:59And once that's over, if you want a divorce, I can accept that.
00:06:02Okay, but whatever that was today, that can never happen again.
00:06:08I don't need you saving me.
00:06:10Well, he's quite convinced now, sir.
00:06:24Just don't tell grandpa.
00:06:27Old Mr. Owens clearly knows about your mother.
00:06:30Becoming the heir is the only true way to avenge my mother.
00:06:33That's all that matters.
00:06:34Also, look into my new wife for me.
00:06:39Bella Miller.
00:06:40No.
00:06:41The real Bella Miller was standing next to Reginald.
00:06:45I want to know what those bastards did to her.
00:06:47Sorry, I was just, uh, intrigued by your designs.
00:07:07Hmm.
00:07:08What are they for?
00:07:09Just some freelance work.
00:07:11I mean, you've got some serious skills.
00:07:13You could secure some high-level work with this.
00:07:15Inovar Architects is the best design company in the country.
00:07:19I mean, you should give them a shot.
00:07:30Hey, um, you got a job interview?
00:07:33I have an interview at Inovar.
00:07:35Oh, all right.
00:07:36Well, uh, good luck.
00:07:38Thanks.
00:07:42Um, I wanted three, but I guess I'll toast another.
00:07:44Okay, she's gone.
00:07:52Introduce yourself, please.
00:07:55I'm Serena Collins.
00:07:56I have extensive experience in design,
00:07:59and I really hope to join this company.
00:08:01Do you have any actual experience in corporate design?
00:08:04These are my designs.
00:08:05Impressive.
00:08:12Did you design these yourself?
00:08:14Or...
00:08:15Can you prove you actually designed these?
00:08:17I mean, everyone can trace a design.
00:08:21Pick any of these, and I will explain them in great detail.
00:08:25No need.
00:08:26You don't even meet our basic requirements.
00:08:28It's over.
00:08:29But I...
00:08:30Sorry.
00:08:32You just indeed lack work experience.
00:08:34It's just not a match price right now.
00:08:41Those designs were so unique.
00:08:43I feel like I've seen them somewhere.
00:08:44I've seen people like her before.
00:08:46Copying other people's work.
00:08:48How could her designs resemble Aura's style more than mine?
00:08:57How did Serena's interview go?
00:08:59She didn't pass.
00:09:01Sorry, brother.
00:09:04The interviewer was Bella Miller.
00:09:06She was promoted to be the manager of the design department.
00:09:09No, I've seen Serena's designs.
00:09:14Hers are obviously more impressive than this.
00:09:17Let's find out how Bella got in.
00:09:19And while you're at it, keep an eye on the election.
00:09:22Understood.
00:09:23By the way, I found out that the Millers bought them from the orphanage.
00:09:27So I can't find a trace of this Leon.
00:09:31Just keep looking.
00:09:39Hey, hey.
00:09:41Are you okay?
00:09:42Why are you here?
00:09:45I'm here to pick you up.
00:09:46Thanks.
00:09:47But unfortunately, I didn't pass.
00:09:50Don't worry.
00:09:52A diamond always shines through, no matter what.
00:09:54Come on.
00:09:55Let's go.
00:09:57Guess who I interviewed today?
00:10:00Serena Collins.
00:10:02Fake Bella.
00:10:03Did you let her pass?
00:10:05Do you even need to ask?
00:10:06You should come around to the office more often.
00:10:10My darling CEO.
00:10:11Everyone knows you're the future wife of the chairman.
00:10:14No need to show off.
00:10:24Well, what do you think?
00:10:25It's wonderful.
00:10:28I didn't think you'd be such a good cook.
00:10:30Everyone says that...
00:10:31That I'm a loser.
00:10:32Sorry.
00:10:33No.
00:10:34You shouldn't care about what others say.
00:10:36Thank you for today.
00:10:38I didn't expect to come home to such a nice meal.
00:10:42If Inovar doesn't want me, there are plenty of other companies.
00:10:45Serena, I don't think today was your fault.
00:10:47She's always hated me.
00:10:50I know you're not the real Bella Miller.
00:10:53She's your sister, right?
00:10:55What?
00:10:57Who told you that?
00:10:58You said your brother is being held captive, and I don't think anybody would imprison their own child.
00:11:04Please don't tell anyone.
00:11:05Don't worry.
00:11:07Your secret is safe with me.
00:11:09Mom.
00:11:10Sorry, I should probably...
00:11:12You do your thing.
00:11:16Yeah.
00:11:16The lady's foster parents are still being difficult about Leon.
00:11:21Don't they own a design company?
00:11:23I mean, just apply some pressure.
00:11:25What?
00:11:27I passed the interview?
00:11:30Okay.
00:11:32I got the job.
00:11:34Oh my gosh.
00:11:35Come here.
00:11:36Come here.
00:11:37Come here.
00:11:37Sorry.
00:11:38Hey, babe.
00:11:44Hi, Braylee.
00:11:46What are you doing here?
00:11:48I thought I told you you weren't qualified.
00:11:51This is my offer.
00:11:55So you pulled strings?
00:11:58Bella's our manager.
00:11:59If she says you aren't good, you aren't.
00:12:02I don't think she takes kindly to being spoken for, miss.
00:12:06How dare you talk like that?
00:12:09Don't you know Bella is the future wife of the CEO of Inovar?
00:12:14The future heir of the Owens.
00:12:16Have you been living under a rock?
00:12:17Okay.
00:12:18I don't know who you had to sleep with to get here.
00:12:21But this is my house and my rules.
00:12:26You can either revise these before you leave today or get out.
00:12:32Just, just bear with her.
00:12:44Hey.
00:12:45It's so late and you're still not done with this?
00:12:48Thanks.
00:12:49Yeah, it was the first day and she's already giving me a hard time.
00:12:56Bella Miller could be trouble.
00:12:59I need to pay her a visit.
00:13:00These are the design drafts we buys yesterday and the one based on the motion brief.
00:13:15Please take a look.
00:13:16I told you if you can't do it on time, you might as well not do it at all.
00:13:20You can look at the drafts I made.
00:13:22They've all been approved by the client.
00:13:25Not good enough.
00:13:26What?
00:13:26At least tell me what the problem is.
00:13:30Bella is your line manager.
00:13:31If she says it's not enough, it's not enough.
00:13:34I'm willing to fix any mistakes that I made, but I can't do anything if you don't tell me
00:13:39what the problem is.
00:13:40You think this is just about revising?
00:13:43The client will be here any minute.
00:13:45What are we supposed to present?
00:13:46Hi.
00:13:51You're downstairs.
00:13:52Okay, perfect.
00:13:53I'll be down in just a minute.
00:13:56Conference room two.
00:13:58Now.
00:14:01Good job.
00:14:03We have the shares now.
00:14:05Reginald's still in the dark.
00:14:08Most time to surprise him then.
00:14:10I'm really glad that you're here.
00:14:18Serena, fetch us some coffee.
00:14:21Hookwood's been so long.
00:14:22I didn't expect for us to collaborate again so soon.
00:14:25We'll take a look at this draft.
00:14:27Sure.
00:14:28How are the projections looking?
00:14:30We've added 20 new brand partners, and we're expecting 3 billion in profits this quarter.
00:14:33That's good.
00:14:34And how is our collaboration with Motion going?
00:14:36The representative of Motion's already meeting with them in conference room two.
00:14:40Okay.
00:14:40By the way, Bella was...
00:14:41Um, what are you doing here?
00:14:53Uh, business?
00:14:55What are you doing here?
00:14:58I have a meeting.
00:14:59Um, see you.
00:15:00If this one doesn't work, I can always pin it on Serena.
00:15:17Hmm.
00:15:18These designs are really not what we're looking for.
00:15:21You know what?
00:15:22You're right.
00:15:23Yeah.
00:15:23I had a rookie who started yesterday to design these.
00:15:26I wanted her to practice.
00:15:28Bella, what are you talking about?
00:15:34Why don't you try these ones?
00:15:40These are top-notch.
00:15:42Bella, how did you come up with these designs?
00:15:44I designed it this way because...
00:15:46Motion is our biggest brand partner.
00:15:48Don't speak out of turn.
00:15:49But I designed this, not Bella Miller.
00:15:51What?
00:15:52Are you trying to steal my work?
00:15:53Only Bella and the company can do such high-level work.
00:15:56I'm not lying.
00:15:57I drew this.
00:15:58I know these front to back.
00:15:59Stop.
00:15:59Are you trying to ruin this collaboration?
00:16:01I'm just telling the truth.
00:16:04How am I supposed to trust you guys with someone like this on your team?
00:16:07Who's arguing right here?
00:16:09Sweetie, what brings you up here?
00:16:11President, this woman is trying to steal Bella's work.
00:16:14You need to change your hiring policies.
00:16:16Ethics is very important to us.
00:16:21I know Vera takes ethics very seriously as well.
00:16:23What's going on?
00:16:25I was just trying to give Serena a chance to practice.
00:16:27She's the one speaking out of turn.
00:16:30It's my work.
00:16:32You deserve to be fired for daring to claim my work as yours.
00:16:36I'm sorry, who's thinking about firing Serena?
00:16:39Serena?
00:16:39Serena?
00:16:39Serena?
00:16:41Serena?
00:16:42Serena?
00:16:44I'm sorry, who's thinking about firing Serena?
00:16:50Well, well, well.
00:16:51The prodigal son returns.
00:16:53Turning over a new leaf?
00:16:54What do you want?
00:16:55A job?
00:16:56Oh, well, if you're offering, I will take the position of CEO.
00:17:00Aw, the filth couple shares their grandeur of delusion.
00:17:04You and your trash wife make a great trash couple.
00:17:06Why don't you go back to your trash heap and get out of here?
00:17:09Oh, okay, well, I'll take up recycling later.
00:17:14Let me see the designs.
00:17:16Wow.
00:17:17You really do think you're CEO.
00:17:20Okay, these are clearly Serena's.
00:17:23What are you talking about?
00:17:25This is the work of a senior designer.
00:17:27No, I saw Serena drawing those last night.
00:17:29Serena, when did you draw those?
00:17:30Covering for someone you sleep with?
00:17:32That's low, even for you.
00:17:34And why should anyone believe you?
00:17:36Well, I own the controlling shares here.
00:17:40I do own 50% of the company.
00:17:42Reginald is director and president here.
00:17:45Not anymore.
00:17:46What are you talking about?
00:17:47Oh, you didn't get the notice?
00:17:48I bought 50% of Inovar.
00:17:51What?
00:17:52That's impossible.
00:17:53The next board meeting?
00:17:54It's already over.
00:17:56Damon, what are you doing here?
00:17:58You betrayed me?
00:17:59I only serve the true heir of the Owens family.
00:18:03Oh, hey, no, no.
00:18:06Reggie, just do your job as director
00:18:08and take up recycling.
00:18:10Don't think you've won.
00:18:12As director, I can still fire anyone who plagiarized.
00:18:15Well, Serena never plagiarized.
00:18:17The company computers keep a record.
00:18:20It logs in and does what works.
00:18:22It's pretty easy to check.
00:18:23Say anything and your brother gets it.
00:18:27No need.
00:18:34Serena, what are you talking about?
00:18:36It's the truth.
00:18:38Just drop it, please.
00:18:40Well, okay.
00:18:42How about a competition, then?
00:18:44To see who's the real deal.
00:18:46Works for me.
00:18:48Good.
00:18:49Inovar is hosting the IF design competition, so...
00:18:53That should do.
00:18:58You won't win so easily again.
00:19:01Okay.
00:19:04I was, um...
00:19:07Really shocked when you said that you own the company.
00:19:11Right, yeah.
00:19:11I'm sorry I didn't tell you about that first.
00:19:13I, uh...
00:19:14I wanted everything to be settled.
00:19:17You helped me again.
00:19:19Um...
00:19:20But aren't you a little worried that your brother's gonna seek revenge?
00:19:24No.
00:19:25No, it's...
00:19:26It's the Owen family way.
00:19:28It's been that way since...
00:19:30I guess my grandpa brought me back from the orphanage ten years ago.
00:19:39I'm sorry, I gotta take this.
00:19:42Hello?
00:19:43Where are you now?
00:19:45Reginald's been here for a while.
00:19:47Yeah, okay.
00:19:47Yeah, I'll do this.
00:19:52I'm sorry about that.
00:19:53I've gotta go.
00:19:54It's family stuff.
00:19:55Uh, of course.
00:19:57Enjoy the wine.
00:19:58And I told him, you call this caviar?
00:20:10Like, are you serious?
00:20:12Hey, grandpa, I'm so sorry I'm here now.
00:20:15Where have you been?
00:20:16Don't be angry.
00:20:18He must have been busy with the wife.
00:20:20Always revolving around a woman.
00:20:23No time for your old granddad.
00:20:25Vincent probably didn't intentionally sneak to the board meeting.
00:20:27I'm sure he'll manage the company quite well.
00:20:30You guys are trying to kill me sooner.
00:20:32Well, how about this?
00:20:33How about a competition between me and Reginald, then?
00:20:36You do understand your brother.
00:20:40But the Owen family is a family built off of design and capabilities.
00:20:45The IF design competition is in a week.
00:20:48If one of us can sign the best designer, then that's a clear show of superior skill.
00:20:53All right, let's settle down.
00:20:57Oh, I don't think I have much time.
00:21:00Grandfather, take care of yourself.
00:21:03I'll come see you tomorrow.
00:21:04Vincent, can you stay for a moment?
00:21:07I need to speak with you.
00:21:08Yes, of course.
00:21:10You are both my grandsons.
00:21:12And I remember, family is everything.
00:21:25I can't believe I actually won.
00:21:27Orr's designs are finally being recognized.
00:21:30I always knew it.
00:21:31Now everybody else does, too.
00:21:34Famous designer?
00:21:37You're going to be swamped with work.
00:21:39No, I need to focus on the IF design competition next week.
00:21:44Why?
00:21:45With your fame, you can easily get a lot of money without it.
00:21:49I made a bet with Bella Miller.
00:21:53That's crazy.
00:21:55Let me guess.
00:21:56This has something to do with your husband, Vincent?
00:21:58Vincent?
00:22:02Okay.
00:22:03I see.
00:22:05You two seem to be getting along quite well.
00:22:07He's good to me.
00:22:10He feels familiar, like an old friend.
00:22:13The news has been buzzing.
00:22:15They got a dark horse this year.
00:22:17I'll contact Orr and send her an invite to collab with us.
00:22:19No.
00:22:20I will send her an invite personally.
00:22:28Who is this Orr?
00:22:30And how come I've never heard of her?
00:22:32Well, she wasn't very famous before.
00:22:34She mainly deals in high tech.
00:22:36Rumor is she is young.
00:22:37Contact her now.
00:22:40She won't refuse an invite from someone as esteemed as me.
00:22:43Yes, President.
00:22:44So, how is the preparation for the contest going?
00:22:52Grandpa, I'm basically ready.
00:22:54My people have already sent an invite to Orr.
00:22:56Well, I felt that respect needs to be shown on a personal level,
00:23:00and so I'm sending one to Orr personally.
00:23:03You also sent her an invitation?
00:23:06Good job, Vincent.
00:23:07You just want another pretty tale to change, don't you?
00:23:10Now, now, now, enough squabbling.
00:23:11Look, I expect much out of both of you.
00:23:14So, just sign her, show me you've got what it takes.
00:23:22Wow.
00:23:23Somebody's getting good news.
00:23:27No, not really.
00:23:29Reginald Owens just sent me an invitation to be a judge.
00:23:34I wonder what he would say if he knew you were Orr.
00:23:40More invites?
00:23:41Show me, show me.
00:23:43Vincent just sent me an invitation, too.
00:23:47Aren't you popular?
00:23:48Two guys fighting over you at the same time?
00:23:50No, it's not like that.
00:23:53He's the new chairman, and we've both been really busy.
00:23:55We've really not talked at all.
00:23:58Are you going to kick Bella Miller's ass as yourself?
00:24:00Well, that looks amazing.
00:24:19Almost done.
00:24:20Just need a few adjustments.
00:24:22That looks so good.
00:24:24Do you want me to get you a cup of coffee?
00:24:25No worries.
00:24:27I'll go with you.
00:24:27Yeah.
00:24:28She's Aura.
00:24:44Yeah, I'm happy I went with blue design.
00:24:55I don't pay you to slack off.
00:24:58Back to work.
00:24:58You know it.
00:25:01We'll see you this time.
00:25:10I have something to tell you.
00:25:12I know who the Aura is.
00:25:15Serena Collins.
00:25:16Are you serious?
00:25:19Absolutely.
00:25:20I wanted to see what she was preparing for the contest, and I found this.
00:25:25I can't believe the Aura, my idol in design school, is that disgusting leech.
00:25:30I even copied her style for my thesis.
00:25:32No matter.
00:25:33I'm a signer first.
00:25:35You know, I could be Aura.
00:25:37Aura, with these unpublished designs, we could live good for ages.
00:25:41Not feasible.
00:25:43Vincent might already know.
00:25:45He isn't as dumb as he looks.
00:25:47Besides, grandfather isn't as easy to fool.
00:25:50And you are no fool.
00:25:53So, what's your plan?
00:25:55I wanted to sign with us willingly.
00:25:59Are you thinking what I'm thinking?
00:26:01You still can't find Leon?
00:26:02They've been quite greedy.
00:26:04Asking for money all the time.
00:26:05Okay, I know this isn't your fault, but I've had enough of this.
00:26:08You need to tell Bruce to find him, by whatever means.
00:26:12But, cautiously.
00:26:16Copy that.
00:26:29Why haven't you released Leon yet?
00:26:31What the hell do you want from me?
00:26:34Ten million for ten years.
00:26:35That's a fair price, no?
00:26:37Time is worth its fading gold, after all.
00:26:41You thieving bastards.
00:26:43Contributing to the family is what you should have been doing.
00:26:46Be grateful we're letting you off this easy.
00:26:47Where am I supposed to get that much money?
00:26:49I have a solution.
00:26:51One big happy ending for everybody.
00:26:53Go on.
00:26:54I'll handle this.
00:26:55Save your mockeries for another day.
00:26:57What do you want?
00:27:03I'm in no mood for your games.
00:27:05I always hated how stupid the two of them were.
00:27:09All they see is money.
00:27:11Not talent.
00:27:13Aura.
00:27:13What are you talking about?
00:27:14My Reginald is so resourceful.
00:27:17Nothing is hidden from his eagle eyes.
00:27:20If you're just gonna spew your lovey-dovey crap, I'm leaving.
00:27:27Sign an exclusive contract with Reginald.
00:27:30And I'll shoo away the vultures.
00:27:32And why aren't you signing me?
00:27:38Really?
00:27:39All that firecracker spirit and still not an ounce of brain in there.
00:27:43We're accessories to the men.
00:27:44Surely Vincent bought you for the same reason.
00:27:47Vincent's not like that.
00:27:48He didn't buy me.
00:27:50Oh, don't be so naive.
00:27:53Love can be bought, like anything in this world.
00:27:55And Reginald can offer you twice what he can.
00:27:59He didn't bribe me.
00:28:00And why would he be so nice to you?
00:28:02Unless he knew who you were.
00:28:06No, I didn't tell him I was Aura.
00:28:09Well, I mean, if Reginald can figure it out with just a little bit of digging, I'm sure Vincent can too.
00:28:14Oh, you still think he's your white knight?
00:28:17Well, if he is, why hasn't he found your brother yet?
00:28:20Or maybe he'll dangle it over your head to use your help.
00:28:24Stop.
00:28:25Play for the winning side, my darling sister.
00:28:27It's the only way to be free and do what you want.
00:28:31And who knows what the notorious Vincent will do to your brother once he gets his hands on him.
00:28:35At least with us.
00:28:36You know where you stand.
00:28:43You have three days to decide.
00:28:45If you join us, your brother goes free and he'll be rewarded handsomely.
00:28:49Is he helping me just to use me?
00:28:53Can I really trust him?
00:29:03Hey.
00:29:05How's your day?
00:29:07Are these the designs that you're submitting to the competition?
00:29:12What do you think?
00:29:12I mean, these are going to win, surely.
00:29:15You're going to do great.
00:29:17But hey, um, afterwards, would you be willing to sign with me?
00:29:21I'm already a designer at Inovar.
00:29:24I know, but I think we can make a lot of money with these.
00:29:27Is this why you've been helping me?
00:29:30Look, Serena, I can't lie.
00:29:31I mean, having these designs would help me, but I also care about you and what's best for you.
00:29:36And I want you to be happy.
00:29:37Hey, look, I appreciate you.
00:29:39Are my designs all that you're after?
00:29:44Is this all that there is to us?
00:29:52Serena, I...
00:29:54Okay, you are an incredibly talented designer.
00:29:58Am I just a designer to you?
00:29:59I mean, don't you want to be the most talented designer?
00:30:03Maybe.
00:30:05I don't know.
00:30:06I don't know.
00:30:09Wait, hey, hey.
00:30:12I'll accompany you to the awards tomorrow.
00:30:14How about that?
00:30:17Sefora still hasn't responded to the invite.
00:30:20That's all right.
00:30:21Because I actually have a better candidate in mind.
00:30:25My wife, Serena Collins.
00:30:28Is the contract going to be exclusive?
00:30:29No, look, I've seen her work.
00:30:32And interestingly enough, it's similar, but somehow better.
00:30:37Well, there isn't much to worry about then.
00:30:39I trust your judgment.
00:30:41Good.
00:30:42Drop some paperwork then.
00:30:44Give her the voting shares and promote her to the gold tier designer position.
00:30:48Good?
00:30:50All right.
00:30:50Zora, what should I do?
00:31:01I can't stop thinking about what Bella said.
00:31:04Is that all there is?
00:31:05Am I just profit margins on a checklist?
00:31:07Does he like me?
00:31:09Or just my skills?
00:31:10Marriage itself is an exchange of interests.
00:31:15But that doesn't mean that you should settle without loving someone or liking them at least.
00:31:20The way he looks at me.
00:31:23Oh my God.
00:31:31It's just months.
00:31:32Listen.
00:31:34Forget about that.
00:31:36If you don't live your life for yourself, nobody will.
00:31:40What does your heart say?
00:31:46Leon is my only family.
00:31:50And Vincent, he's just...
00:31:53I just can't make the same mistake again.
00:32:00I got to...
00:32:05Wait.
00:32:10Why did he do this?
00:32:13Now I look like just some trophy wife like Bella.
00:32:16No.
00:32:18I got to respond.
00:32:19It's just gossip, honey.
00:32:22The vultures have no idea what they're talking about.
00:32:25It's okay.
00:32:26They have no idea.
00:32:27You're going to win for sure.
00:32:41I think Serena is the dark horse here.
00:32:44She may not have the experience, but she absolutely has the skill.
00:32:47Aura's going to be here too.
00:32:49I want to see if I can get an autograph.
00:32:50We meet again.
00:32:52May the best woman win.
00:32:53Maybe you should ask for mercy now and spare yourself the embarrassment.
00:32:58Why do you always have to be like this?
00:33:01I heard Aura's going to be one of the judges today.
00:33:03The mysterious designer who came out of nowhere.
00:33:06What fun.
00:33:07Isn't it obvious?
00:33:09I'm looking forward to it.
00:33:10Thank you all for coming to the IF Design Competition.
00:33:15Let's welcome our judges.
00:33:17Welcome Dorothy, the president of the Royal Design Academy.
00:33:24Last but not least, let's give a warm welcome to our guest judge.
00:33:28The amazing Aura.
00:33:30Wow, maybe the great and mighty Aura is looking down on us all right now.
00:33:45Will she grace us with her presence?
00:33:48Or are we not showing you?
00:33:50Aura never shows her face in public.
00:33:52It's not that irregular.
00:33:54Let's just go ahead and move this along.
00:33:55I will now officially announce today's winner.
00:34:01The third place goes to Melody Swee.
00:34:09The second place goes to Bella Miller.
00:34:17Second place is also good, Bella.
00:34:19The winner of this competition.
00:34:24Hurry up, who is it?
00:34:26The first place goes to Serena Collins.
00:34:32You are amazing.
00:34:37Look, there's your design draft.
00:34:40Oh my God, look at the signature.
00:34:42Oh my God, look at the signature.
00:34:52Whoa, whoa, whoa.
00:34:53Aura graces with her presence after all.
00:34:56Congratulations on winning first place, Serena.
00:34:58I'm really happy for you.
00:35:00But why didn't you...
00:35:01Oh, Ginny's designer.
00:35:02May I invite you to talk by the sky bar?
00:35:04Serena, I...
00:35:05You both want me to send a contract with you?
00:35:08I value talent.
00:35:10Business is business, no?
00:35:11And you?
00:35:13Serena, it's your choice.
00:35:14Whatever you choose, I just...
00:35:16I want you to be happy.
00:35:19You want me to be happy?
00:35:20Are you helping me or are you helping yourself?
00:35:24Miss Collins, I believe accents speak louder than words.
00:35:27Therefore, I'm willing to pay you this check of $10 million.
00:35:31As a signing bonus.
00:35:33And I can pay you double for whatever price you ask for.
00:35:36That's not a deal you can get anywhere else.
00:35:37Serena, hey, look.
00:35:38Look at me.
00:35:39It's me.
00:35:40Let's just talk about this.
00:35:42Money is no object.
00:35:44Whatever he can offer, I can double it.
00:35:46I won't sign with the both of you.
00:35:48I'm tired.
00:35:50Stop following me.
00:35:51Serena, hey, no.
00:35:52See?
00:35:56This is all they want.
00:35:58And you can have everything you want, too.
00:36:00Money, power, even love.
00:36:04All in exchange for each other's desires.
00:36:07If you're going to be a tool, you might as well get paid for it.
00:36:10Can you stop talking?
00:36:12Serena, don't listen to her.
00:36:15Tool?
00:36:15Oh, and don't forget about your brother, too.
00:36:18Oh, and don't forget about your brother, too.
00:36:21If I sign this, will you release my brother?
00:36:39Of course.
00:36:40All debts will be erased.
00:36:42I'm a man of my word.
00:36:51This contract will be presented to my grandfather.
00:36:54I can't wait to save it to look on Vincent's face.
00:36:57No.
00:36:59I won't help you anymore.
00:37:00And besides, why do I have to meet your grandfather?
00:37:03My grandfather loves your work.
00:37:06I won't be involved with this anymore.
00:37:08You already are involved.
00:37:10This is how the game is played.
00:37:20Here's a check.
00:37:20Your brother means nothing to me.
00:37:28At least you have the decency to cultivate a useful talent.
00:37:31The most significant he can achieve in this life is leverage.
00:37:38Sister?
00:37:39Leon.
00:37:42Hey, sister, letting me stop today.
00:37:44Wherever you are, I will find you.
00:37:47See?
00:37:48Isn't it good playing for the winning side?
00:37:50I'm sorry, Vinny.
00:38:09It was a new guy from Legal.
00:38:12He's fired now and taken care of.
00:38:14He didn't know much anyway.
00:38:16Some of the staff heard the news and thought
00:38:20speeding up the hiring policy would please you.
00:38:27I have to explain this to Serena.
00:38:29I just, I can't, I can't lose her this way.
00:38:32Yeah.
00:38:45Hey, brother.
00:38:47Want to visit our grandfather?
00:38:50Okay, yeah.
00:38:51I'll be right there.
00:38:55Grandfather, I have good news.
00:38:57I think I found the one.
00:38:58So soon?
00:38:59Who is it?
00:39:01Indulge me a little.
00:39:02The suspense is good for the soul.
00:39:04Oh, you and your theatrics.
00:39:07Vincent, are you prepared also?
00:39:10Yes, I have a candidate in mind, but I'm still working on it.
00:39:13Okay, we'll hear from Reginald then.
00:39:15I sign.
00:39:16The one and only, Ora.
00:39:18This is impressive.
00:39:26She's quite talented, Reginald.
00:39:28Yes.
00:39:29I remember you mentioning admiring her work, and I thought,
00:39:32who better than someone like that?
00:39:34When did Ora agree to sign with you?
00:39:36I mean, did you do something to her?
00:39:38Trade secrets.
00:39:40All I can say is, she was more than happy to sign once she saw the zeros on the check.
00:39:44No, no.
00:39:45Serena's not the type to be moved by money.
00:39:47What did you do to her?
00:39:48So, you both know her?
00:39:50That's interesting.
00:39:51I'd like to meet this woman.
00:39:53Grandpa, you can meet her now.
00:39:55Jesus Designer, come in.
00:39:58Serena, what are you doing here?
00:40:01I mean, did he do something to you?
00:40:09Hello, I'm Ora, the creator of Azur Nebula.
00:40:14I didn't expect you to be so young.
00:40:16Reginald, you did well.
00:40:18Grandpa, our previous agreement?
00:40:20No, there's one week left.
00:40:24If you could match his offer.
00:40:26Yes, Grandpa.
00:40:26Hey, wait, wait, Serena, Serena, come on.
00:40:31Hey, is what he said in there true?
00:40:34Why did you sign with him?
00:40:35I mean, did he do something to you?
00:40:41Why did you sign with him?
00:40:43It's none of your business.
00:40:44I am not your property.
00:40:46I don't need to respond to anything.
00:40:47That's not, that's not what I meant.
00:40:49He doesn't care about you.
00:40:51He just wants you through your designs.
00:40:53He appreciates my work.
00:40:54I also appreciate your work and you.
00:40:58Or is it because of Ora?
00:40:59Or, or is it because you're so set on winning some pissing contest with your brother?
00:41:04Do you really think I would only sign you because of Ora?
00:41:07Enough with your gains.
00:41:08At least Reginald is honest about why he wants my work.
00:41:11You, you can't even be honest with me.
00:41:13Do you really not know my feelings for you?
00:41:16You, look, I don't care about the money or who you sign with.
00:41:20Why didn't you at least talk to me about this first?
00:41:23I am just your wife on paper.
00:41:26I'm not even the real Bella Miller.
00:41:28Why do you care so much?
00:41:29Because they're deceiving you.
00:41:33Do you really think I don't care about you?
00:41:38Serena, Serena, wait.
00:41:45Where is my brother?
00:41:46How can someone draw such pretty designs yet be as dumb as a sack of rocks?
00:41:53The game isn't over yet.
00:41:55Your brother stays until Reginald inherits.
00:41:58What does any of this have to do with me?
00:42:01He who signs the best designer shall inherit the house.
00:42:05And that right now is you.
00:42:08Reginald thinks he won't buck, but I know better than to count my chickens before they hatch.
00:42:14See?
00:42:16All of this over an inheritance.
00:42:26See?
00:42:28You actually can think.
00:42:31And I'm just a pawn in your game, right?
00:42:34You, Vincent, Reginald, you are all the same.
00:42:38How can you be so good at drawing yet so thick when it comes to people?
00:42:44I can't believe you would betray the only man who loves you for your useless flesh, brother.
00:42:49Don't talk about my brother like that.
00:42:51You're doing the same thing for your family.
00:42:54Blood is thicker than water.
00:42:57Actually, it's the blood of the Covenant that is thicker than the water of the womb.
00:43:02Common mistake amongst feeble-minded fools.
00:43:05I'm not doing this for family.
00:43:07Then why?
00:43:08Why are you doing this?
00:43:11Survival.
00:43:12I'm a survivor.
00:43:14I've learned a long time ago that if you're not taking, you'll be taken from.
00:43:18All I wanted was to design jewelry and, uh, they didn't ask for any of this.
00:43:32And they just are all the same.
00:43:34All of them.
00:43:35And they uprooted my life for stupid bets.
00:43:42It fell in their hands like a damn fiddle.
00:43:44I really don't think that's the case.
00:43:46You just met him, right?
00:43:48If you were a tool, he would have made you do every single thing that he wanted.
00:43:53I really don't think that he knew.
00:43:55I know that I don't know your husband very well, but he seemed genuinely happy for you when he won.
00:44:01I just, I don't know.
00:44:03I know that this is a game that rich people play, but at least he never hurt you.
00:44:08I didn't know the stakes were going to be this high.
00:44:11It feels like his family or mine, and maybe, maybe I am just like them.
00:44:25Hey, Blake, um, look, Serena wasn't home last night.
00:44:29Just, um, make sure she's okay.
00:44:33Right.
00:44:34I'll bring her back ASAP.
00:44:35No, don't do that.
00:44:37Just make sure she's safe.
00:44:41Thanks.
00:44:46How have you been?
00:44:48Have you found the designer yet?
00:44:51Not yet.
00:44:52You better hurry up.
00:44:55Only three days left.
00:44:56Now remember, the designer you found must present the best draft.
00:45:01That was the bet.
00:45:02Oh, you'll definitely be impressed, Grandpa.
00:45:11Sir, Miss Tracy's back in town.
00:45:14She'd like to have dinner with you.
00:45:16Miss Tracy said she can help you.
00:45:18What do you want from me this time?
00:45:35I need your best work.
00:45:37Give us a Zer Nebula.
00:45:38I've done everything you've asked me to do.
00:45:41A Zer Nebula was completed before the contract was signed.
00:45:44I need your approval to use it.
00:45:46Is this another one of your petty squabbles for the inheritance?
00:45:50I won't do it.
00:45:52I will not be a pawn for you.
00:45:54Then your brother is worm food.
00:45:55Yes.
00:46:02I will get you for this.
00:46:06Bring the designs to swap for your brother tomorrow.
00:46:08There's less than three days left.
00:46:15Sir, you got to do something.
00:46:18How's Serena doing?
00:46:20Well, she got pretty drunk and went to meet up with Bella.
00:46:24Sir, you need to worry about yourself first.
00:46:26By now, they might have squeezed a better design out of her, so we need to do something.
00:46:30Well, if we can't find somebody, then I'm going to have to do it myself.
00:46:36What, you don't believe me?
00:46:37No, I'm just worried about the time.
00:46:41Their trump card must be a Zer Nebula, and I don't know if we can beat that.
00:46:47Yeah, come in.
00:46:58Are you busy?
00:47:01No, of course not, Sirena.
00:47:02Yeah, yeah, please.
00:47:06I have something to...
00:47:07I have something to...
00:47:08Tell me.
00:47:09You go first.
00:47:10Okay.
00:47:11I came here to tell you that I had no idea it would affect your inheritance.
00:47:15I'm so sorry, but I don't have another choice.
00:47:18Don't sweat it.
00:47:19It's not over until the fat lady sings anyway, right?
00:47:22You might need to find a new designer.
00:47:26Just don't worry about it.
00:47:28Here.
00:47:29Thanks.
00:47:31Also, look, I wanted to tell you, I'm not helping you because you're a part of some sort of scheme
00:47:40to get my father's inheritance or anything like that.
00:47:42When I saw your designs, I was truly inspired.
00:47:46I thought you'd be a better designer than Aura.
00:47:48That's why I signed you.
00:47:49You didn't know I was Aura?
00:47:51I didn't.
00:47:52No.
00:47:52I was wondering if she would show up.
00:47:55I just had no clue that she would be you.
00:48:01Also, one more thing.
00:48:02I'm so sorry about all of this drama with the media people.
00:48:05I wasn't trying to pressure you into signing with me.
00:48:09It's some elite information.
00:48:13Listen.
00:48:15I'm sorry that it has come to this.
00:48:17No, look, it's okay.
00:48:19You don't need to apologize.
00:48:20I respect your decisions.
00:48:21I just wish I could have explained myself a little bit soon.
00:48:26Sorry, one second.
00:48:29Yeah?
00:48:32You found Leon?
00:48:35You found Leon?
00:48:44Yeah.
00:48:45Yeah, okay.
00:48:45I'll call you back.
00:48:48Bruce just got Bella's video that she sent.
00:48:51He traced it to somewhere in the North District.
00:48:53They might be able to find Leon soon.
00:48:54And then I can go see my brother?
00:48:56Yes.
00:48:59Why are you helping me so much?
00:49:02Serena, what kind of a question is that?
00:49:03You are my wife.
00:49:04I will protect you.
00:49:06Always.
00:49:07I'm sorry, Vincent.
00:49:09I really thought I...
00:49:10Stop apologizing.
00:49:12I didn't explain myself well.
00:49:14As well.
00:49:17What should we do?
00:49:19Well, um...
00:49:20I do have a plan B.
00:49:22Do you need my...
00:49:23And what plan is that?
00:49:25Oh, Tracy, don't you ever knock?
00:49:28I'll be lucky I didn't come through the window.
00:49:32Okay, okay.
00:49:33Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:49:33What are you doing here?
00:49:35What I'm sure remember?
00:49:37I'm plan B.
00:49:38I'm plan B.
00:49:38Wait outside.
00:49:46No, no, Serena.
00:49:47It's not what it looks like.
00:49:47It's not...
00:49:48No.
00:49:49Okay, Tracy, can you please let go of me?
00:49:52Who is that woman?
00:49:53What are you playing dumb?
00:49:55That's your sister-in-law.
00:49:56You said you would marry me!
00:50:00Oh, how could you?
00:50:02Okay, what do you want this time?
00:50:04Did you see how jealous she looked?
00:50:06Yeah.
00:50:06Oh, she looked like she wanted to curse me with a voodoo doll.
00:50:10You guys need to cut this sad love story thing and just kiss already.
00:50:14You guys are practically...
00:50:15I mean, that you're literally already married.
00:50:16Yeah, please get to the point.
00:50:20Ten million in these videos.
00:50:26I thought I got the friends and family discount.
00:50:29That is the friends and family discount.
00:50:34These are pretty good.
00:50:36Pretty good?
00:50:38I will have you know I am one of, if not the best in the business.
00:50:42Am I on that list?
00:50:43You still draw?
00:50:47Is that it yet?
00:50:48I'll just consider it.
00:50:51Okay, take your time.
00:50:53I'm going to go talk to your new wife.
00:50:55Maybe I'll tell her your bedwetting story.
00:50:56No, please, please don't do that.
00:50:58Oh, no promises.
00:50:59No promises.
00:51:25I never thought that one day I might be able to give this to you.
00:51:33I always thought, would you like it?
00:51:39Who was that woman who just waltzed into the chairman's office?
00:51:43Could she be a suitor or maybe a lover?
00:51:46Well, she did barge in without being scolded.
00:51:49Maybe she's his someone.
00:51:52She was wearing all designer bling, too.
00:51:55Clearly some rich girl.
00:51:56Also, she was carrying a sketchbook.
00:51:59Aura, the great designer.
00:52:01Are you pretending you aren't curious?
00:52:03What should I be curious about?
00:52:06She wasn't carrying a design sketch, was she?
00:52:08She's coming over.
00:52:09Aura.
00:52:15Your aura?
00:52:17Huh.
00:52:19Your designs are pretty good.
00:52:21Hey, you're a designer, too.
00:52:22Can we see some of your sketches?
00:52:25Google Tracy Winston.
00:52:32Oh, my gosh.
00:52:33So, she's their aura, huh?
00:52:36Not bad.
00:52:38Look at this.
00:52:38Not bad at all.
00:52:40She's the heiress to the Winston legacy.
00:52:43Jealous?
00:52:44I would be.
00:52:45I don't even think the great aura can compare to that.
00:52:48But, how did he know my dream is to be the best designer?
00:53:04No.
00:53:04I already cost him so much.
00:53:06I can't presume I am his anything.
00:53:09Who is Tracy Winston?
00:53:11Seems like they have a close relationship.
00:53:13The sand is running out in your brother's hourglass.
00:53:20I've told you, I won't do it.
00:53:22Kitty getting her claws out.
00:53:24Well, I can scratch it, too.
00:53:27Leon?
00:53:29Stop!
00:53:31What has she gotten herself into?
00:53:35It's funny, isn't it?
00:53:37Even the most useless family member can get a move that trick me.
00:53:40Tell me where Leon is, and I'll give you the design draft.
00:53:44Ten o'clock.
00:53:45Come to the warehouse.
00:53:46And don't be late.
00:53:48I'm not selling any sand for your brother's hourglass.
00:53:51I'll send you the coordinates.
00:53:53The South warehouse?
00:53:55Call the cops.
00:53:56And I'll make sure his funeral is a closed casket one, too.
00:54:00Call the cops.
00:54:15And I'll make sure your brother's funeral is a closed casket.
00:54:23I don't like this.
00:54:25We're looking desperate.
00:54:27We're not the ones that are desperate.
00:54:28She is.
00:54:33And you didn't tell anyone where we kept her, right?
00:54:36I didn't.
00:54:39I didn't.
00:54:40I swear.
00:54:42What would I gain from telling her?
00:54:50Well, if it wasn't you, then it could only be him.
00:54:53A few people were found in the North warehouse.
00:54:55Maybe G-13.
00:54:55You could be hiring them to find a boy.
00:55:01This could ruin me.
00:55:02Did he find us?
00:55:05What if he comes for us?
00:55:06Don't worry about us.
00:55:08That woman is my bargaining chip.
00:55:10I can't believe he cares so much about her.
00:55:15Then their weakness for each other will be their downfall.
00:55:19Would I be your weakness, then?
00:55:20Should I tell, Vincent?
00:55:37Hey, is, um, is Tracy still with Serena?
00:56:07Uh, it seems they left the office already.
00:56:12Serena should be home by now.
00:56:16No, no, something's wrong.
00:56:19Hey, just look after the business while I go look for her, okay?
00:56:21Yeah.
00:56:22You're the best.
00:56:26Serena!
00:56:26Serena!
00:56:28Serena!
00:56:29Hey!
00:56:29Yeah, hey, hey, Bruce, um, Serena is in here.
00:56:35She took all of her stuff.
00:56:36We need all hands on deck for this, okay?
00:56:38Hey!
00:56:46I think we died.
00:56:47Ah!
00:56:48Oh, here, here, here!
00:56:51Here, here, here!
00:56:53Hello?
00:56:58Vincent?
00:57:00You're not gonna like this.
00:57:04Serena's in trouble.
00:57:07Tracy?
00:57:08What?
00:57:09Where are you?
00:57:11I don't know.
00:57:12I don't know.
00:57:13I don't know.
00:57:14I don't know.
00:57:15I don't know.
00:57:16I don't know.
00:57:17I don't know.
00:57:18I don't know.
00:57:19I don't know.
00:57:20I don't know.
00:57:21Okay.
00:57:22What?
00:57:23Where are you now?
00:57:24I don't know.
00:57:25I just saw her go into this warehouse.
00:57:26These guys took her in.
00:57:27Just hurry.
00:57:34What?
00:57:35All alone?
00:57:37Where's your shining white knight husband now?
00:57:39I could say the same for you.
00:57:41Don't get cute with me.
00:57:43Where are the designs?
00:57:45I'm not giving you anything until I see my brother.
00:57:51What?
00:57:54What is this?
00:57:55Where are the designs?
00:57:57Fool me twice.
00:57:58Shame on me, right?
00:58:00I won't be fooled the same way again.
00:58:02Let my brother go first and then I'll tell you where the design is.
00:58:06Let me go see my brother.
00:58:10I know he isn't here.
00:58:11I know you wouldn't tell me the correct location.
00:58:13Who told you?
00:58:14Vincent Owens?
00:58:16Start talking or I will take these little designer fingers away.
00:58:23Tell me what I want to know.
00:58:32Not until you let my brother go.
00:58:38You think you've been to your designs, didn't you?
00:58:42Smart move.
00:58:44Holding your designs ransom for your brother and your rescue?
00:58:48I wouldn't understand.
00:58:49Then why?
00:58:52For love.
00:58:54Don't make me laugh.
00:58:55And aren't you doing this for your precious Reginald?
00:58:59It is not the same.
00:59:01In this game, winner takes all.
00:59:04You think if the roles were reversed, it wouldn't be me in this chair tied up and Vincent holding the knife?
00:59:09Vincent is Vincent.
00:59:10He isn't like you and you aren't like me.
00:59:12You fight for nothing but yourself.
00:59:15You think you are so special.
00:59:20As soon as you age, he'll trade up.
00:59:24There will always be another pretty face with big puppy dog eyes calling for him to save her.
00:59:31Compared to his inheritance, his wealth, his power, they're nothing.
00:59:38And what about you?
00:59:39Huh?
00:59:40Where is your precious Reginald now?
00:59:43You think he's gonna keep you because you're so useful?
00:59:47He has hung you out to dry.
00:59:49If he did care, he would be here.
00:59:52You deal with that woman first.
00:59:54I have business to take care of.
00:59:56But what if Serena refuses to give us the designs?
00:59:59Me?
01:00:01You mean if she refuses to give me the designs?
01:00:04Well, if that's the case, make yourself useful and make her talk.
01:00:06What if she really gets hurt?
01:00:16I can use the designs as leverage.
01:00:19Wake up.
01:00:20He's gonna drop you after the meeting.
01:00:22You'll be just like me.
01:00:24Stop you.
01:00:25You can stop this.
01:00:26You still have time.
01:00:28Honey.
01:00:30What's going on?
01:00:37She gave me blank designs. I did what you asked.
01:00:43What are you doing?
01:00:46I told you to talk to her properly.
01:00:49I apologize if my Bella seems a little overzealous.
01:00:54She tends to be passionate when it comes to me.
01:00:57You know what I mean.
01:00:59Perhaps you've gone from the wrong foot.
01:01:00My interest is you. It's only in Owen's family.
01:01:05I can let your brother go first.
01:01:09What's the catch?
01:01:11No catch.
01:01:12Just an earnest attempt to mend fences.
01:01:17Then take me to see Leon.
01:01:28Leon?
01:01:31Sit.
01:01:34Where are you now?
01:01:35I don't know.
01:01:36They just let me out.
01:01:37I'm getting a mover.
01:01:39Go to 168 Queens Blvd and find Vincent Owens.
01:01:44You see?
01:01:46I held my word.
01:01:50Put the design under blacklight.
01:01:52You'll be able to see it.
01:01:53Clever.
01:01:54Serena!
01:01:55Serena!
01:01:56Hey!
01:01:57Serena!
01:01:58It's it!
01:01:59How about time you showed up?
01:02:00Serena, are you okay?
01:02:01Both of you get in touch with our people.
01:02:02Tell them to come to the South Warehouse.
01:02:03Yes, sir.
01:02:04Everyone in the South Warehouse stat.
01:02:05Hello?
01:02:06Boss, we found the boy in the North Warehouse.
01:02:07Is he safe?
01:02:08We got in an Uber that's driven by Reginald's men.
01:02:09The stupid boy actually jumped out halfway through.
01:02:10We took care of him.
01:02:11He came with us to the hospital after we dropped him.
01:02:12Okay, fine.
01:02:13Just take care of him and tell everybody to come to the South Warehouse.
01:02:14We got in an Uber that's driven by Reginald's men.
01:02:15The stupid boy actually jumped out halfway through.
01:02:16We took care of him.
01:02:17He came with us to the hospital after we dropped him.
01:02:18Okay, fine.
01:02:19Just take care of him and tell everybody to come to the South Warehouse.
01:02:20We got in an Uber that's driven by Reginald's men.
01:02:21We got in an Uber that's driven by Reginald's men.
01:02:22The stupid boy actually jumped out halfway through.
01:02:23We took care of him.
01:02:24He came with us to the hospital after we dropped him.
01:02:25Okay, fine.
01:02:26Just take care of him and tell everybody to come to the South Warehouse when you're done.
01:02:41Sir, that's Tracy's car.
01:02:43Okay, fine.
01:02:44Go find her.
01:02:45Go.
01:02:46Go.
01:02:47Vincent, what are you doing?
01:02:49It's dangerous.
01:02:50I didn't want to talk.
01:02:51I mean, you came here alone.
01:02:52I don't want to be a burden anymore.
01:02:56Let's cut the lovey-dovey crap before I puke.
01:02:59Please.
01:03:00Reginald.
01:03:01What?
01:03:02I didn't do anything.
01:03:04Tell me.
01:03:05What do you want?
01:03:07I want my inheritance.
01:03:09I want what's rightfully mine.
01:03:11A million you would be a bonus too.
01:03:19Don't.
01:03:20Don't listen to him.
01:03:22Two more people left.
01:03:23Find them.
01:03:24See?
01:03:25They're all the same.
01:03:27He's hesitating.
01:03:29Gratitude only goes so far until the next skink walks by.
01:03:34Serena, I care about you very much.
01:03:37And here comes the butt.
01:03:40It's okay, Vincent.
01:03:42You've risked everything to save me.
01:03:45Ugh.
01:03:46My girl bored of this.
01:03:47How about we up the stage?
01:03:49The woman or the inheritance?
01:03:51Decide.
01:03:52Now.
01:04:01Is this your trump card?
01:04:02Hey, I couldn't decide which one you like more, so why not both?
01:04:06If you didn't bring this woman all the way around the world for you, we wouldn't be here.
01:04:10If you think about it, it's really your fault.
01:04:13This is what you were doing all this time.
01:04:15Come on.
01:04:16It's two for the price of one.
01:04:18Limited time only.
01:04:19Fine.
01:04:21Fine.
01:04:23You win.
01:04:25Let Tracy go.
01:04:27Vincent, whatever choice you make, I'm with you.
01:04:31Ugh.
01:04:32Falling for a woman.
01:04:33What weakness.
01:04:34See, that's where you and I differ.
01:04:36There's nothing I want to do in this world for that inheritance.
01:04:38And that's why I won.
01:04:41In fact, I can't wait to tell Grandpa who's in the ICU right now.
01:04:46I adjusted his dosage.
01:04:48It's always in such pain.
01:04:49You know, I can't bear it with myself.
01:04:51What are you, insane?
01:04:52You're killing your own family?
01:04:54Family?
01:04:55What do you know about family, orphan boy?
01:04:57I sacrificed everything for this family.
01:04:59Reginald, you need to stop this madness before it's too late, okay?
01:05:02Oh, brother.
01:05:04This isn't madness.
01:05:07This is what winning looks like.
01:05:10And you, you're just someone who can't protect his mother.
01:05:13And can't protect his wife.
01:05:15And can't protect his mistress.
01:05:17What a joke.
01:05:18Fine.
01:05:19Fine.
01:05:22I promise you.
01:05:31I promise you.
01:05:33I didn't kiss him.
01:05:35Say it again.
01:05:36I promise you.
01:05:37The Owens family is ours.
01:05:38You mean the Owens family is mine.
01:05:39Sir, everything's taken care of.
01:05:40Everything is mine.
01:05:41You're just like your mother.
01:05:42Never enough balls to crack some eggs to make an omelette.
01:05:43Who do you think you are?
01:05:45Val.
01:05:46No.
01:05:47No.
01:05:48Kneel.
01:05:49Kneel before me and I might let you live.
01:05:51Still, a woman poisons your mind.
01:05:55You disappoint me, brother.
01:05:56Let them go.
01:05:57What's your mind?
01:05:58What's your mind?
01:05:59What's your mind?
01:06:00How are you going to be?
01:06:01What's your mind?
01:06:02What's your mind?
01:06:03Sir, everything is taken care of.
01:06:04Everything is mine.
01:06:05You're just like your mother.
01:06:06Never enough balls to crack some eggs to make an omelette.
01:06:08Who do you think you are?
01:06:09Val.
01:06:10No.
01:06:11Kneel.
01:06:12Kneel before me and I might let you live.
01:06:13You disappoint me, brother.
01:06:15Let them go.
01:06:19Still playing the hero, are we?
01:06:21Guards! Today's your last day!
01:06:31James?
01:06:33Adam?
01:06:35What's going on?
01:06:37We found everyone. And we found Miss Tracy too.
01:06:39The police are outside.
01:06:41I swear to God.
01:06:43You think you got me?
01:06:45I still have an ace up my sleeve.
01:06:47Anything happens to me, I think Grandpa gets it.
01:06:49You think Grandpa wouldn't see through your petty tricks?
01:06:53You think he can get the design in our time?
01:06:55Yeah, yeah, I'm working on it, but um...
01:06:57Also, I wanted to tell you something.
01:07:03Aura...
01:07:05is my wife.
01:07:07Your brother signed a contract with your wife.
01:07:13Well, that's interesting.
01:07:15Well, no, no, no. It's not that kind of interesting, Grandpa.
01:07:17Look, I think he might try to hurt her because of me.
01:07:23Just...
01:07:25Keep an eye out.
01:07:27I, uh...
01:07:29I think he's gonna try to do something.
01:07:31Impossible! There's no way you could've seen through my plans!
01:07:33I was always his favorite!
01:07:35And her...
01:07:36Her brother is still in my hands!
01:07:37It's not over yet!
01:07:39You've got no cards left to play, Reggie.
01:07:41What did you say?
01:07:43Leon is safe, isn't he?
01:07:44He's safe. He's okay.
01:07:45He's in the hospital and it's nothing serious.
01:07:47Possible.
01:07:48Impossible!
01:07:49Oh!
01:07:50What'd I pay that gang scum for?
01:07:53Oh, surrounded by idiots!
01:07:55And you...
01:07:56Who do you think you are?
01:08:13You...
01:08:14You paid off the H gang?
01:08:15You never trust a man who can be bought.
01:08:17I mean...
01:08:18Don't you remember Grandpa's teachings?
01:08:20Boss, let's take you care of me.
01:08:22Someone betrayed us!
01:08:23One of my men took money from them!
01:08:25It's not my fault!
01:08:26What?!
01:08:27This is...
01:08:28Frequent smokers!
01:08:29This is not possible.
01:08:30This...
01:08:31I...
01:08:32I refuse!
01:08:33Ah!
01:08:34Hey, put it down!
01:08:35Hey, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
01:08:36Oh, hey...
01:08:37Get away, you!
01:08:41This is your fault, not mine!
01:08:43You did this!
01:08:44You did this!
01:08:45You!
01:08:46Reggie, wait...
01:08:47Go, go, go, go, go, go, go!
01:08:48No, no, hey...
01:08:49Don't take a drink!
01:08:50I'm okay!
01:08:51No, you're not, Serena!
01:08:52Come here!
01:08:53Come here!
01:08:54Okay.
01:08:55Okay.
01:09:14You're awake.
01:09:15Are you...
01:09:16Are you hurt?
01:09:17No, no, I'm...
01:09:18I'm fine.
01:09:19I'm sorry.
01:09:20I...
01:09:21It's my fault.
01:09:22I didn't take care of you.
01:09:23No, it's not.
01:09:24It's not your fault.
01:09:25I'm just so glad that you're safe.
01:09:26So this, uh, husband of yours doesn't need a brotherly talk?
01:09:27No, stop it, Leon.
01:09:28I might be important, but I'm not that important.
01:09:29Come in.
01:09:30Come in.
01:09:32vole look at the camera.
01:09:34don't I...
01:09:35I'm sorry, Pam?
01:09:36Mr. Owens...
01:09:37I stopped taking care of you.
01:09:38No, it's not.
01:09:39It's not your fault.
01:09:40I'm just so glad that you're safe.
01:09:41So this, uh, husband of yours doesn't need a brotherly talk.
01:09:45No.
01:09:46Stop it, Leon.
01:09:47I might be important, but I'm not that important.
01:09:50Come in.
01:09:55Mr. Owens.
01:09:57Oh...
01:09:58No...
01:09:59it up. Please sit down. Oh, thank you. Look, I'm just here to apologize for my family and
01:10:10my grandson. I am just so very sorry you had to go through all this. Reginald has been
01:10:17arrested. It's time he's learned his lesson. And Vincent has told me everything. He's much
01:10:27like his mother. Kind, pure of heart, thinking of others. His father concentrated on
01:10:35business. He didn't pay much attention at home. If he had, maybe we would all be in
01:10:41so much trouble. That's why he grew up in the orphanage.
01:10:49Hey. Grandpa. Vincent. You're here. I am. Hi.
01:10:57I'm really sorry for signing with them. I should have known better. It's okay. Don't
01:11:09apologize. You did nothing wrong. I should be apologizing. I mean, I put what I thought
01:11:15was important over everything. I mean, over you. And it got you in danger. I just wish I
01:11:22could have explained everything to you a little bit sooner so that we could have avoided
01:11:26a lot of this. By the way, Mr. Owens told me that Reginald is in jail. Do you know if
01:11:33Bella's there too? Unfortunately, yes. That rat Reginald blames Bella for everything and
01:11:39she might be in trouble. Serena, look, I was so consumed by vengeance for a time that all
01:11:49I could think about was avenging my mother, taking back the family. When I found out that
01:11:55you were in danger, nothing else mattered anymore. All I could think about was you.
01:12:01I know what you mean. When I was at the warehouse yesterday, I thought about trading my life for
01:12:09my brothers. I'm with you. You mentioned that Tracy called? Yeah, she saw you having coffee and
01:12:25followed you, called us. She's a big girl. I wouldn't worry about her. She's tougher than
01:12:31she looks and she'll be fine. Well, aren't you going to go see her? She's got family there.
01:12:37What am I going to do? Oh, okay. We kind of grew up together. She's like an annoying little
01:12:45sister to me. She wasn't my plan B, if that's what you're thinking. So what was your plan B?
01:12:54You want to see it?
01:13:01Do you like it? It's a gift for you. It's not quite there yet. We're still improving on
01:13:12the design. Do you know who designed this? Right in front of you. Yeah, I know. I'm not
01:13:19just a pretty face that you know. I've had the idea drawn up for a long time, but you were
01:13:26the primary inspiration. Because without you, no jewelry would ever shine. And I want to
01:13:35do this one together. Because now that you're here, by my side, my world is complete.
01:13:47And scent. Wait. Try this one. Perfect. It's good? Yeah. Alright. It's great. It's good. And
01:14:09then at the top, you need to probably work on that. It's good. It's good. It's all there.
01:14:23Just focus, okay? There it is. Let's give it a name. Okay. Eternal love.
01:14:36You know, um, the past ten years, I've waited and have dreamt of this moment every single
01:14:49day.
01:14:51I can see you. I kept you waiting. Here. Here. Oh, sorry. Let it make a safe place.
01:15:18Because we do have a bit of a replacement for you. Alright. Here. Here we go. It's really
01:15:31you. I finally found you. Grandpa! Vincent! Serena! Oh! You guys are okay! Oh my gosh! I
01:15:47was so worried. There was just this guy and then we're okay. We're okay. We're okay.
01:15:52Tracy. Tracy, take a breath. You're doing that chipmunk squeal again.
01:15:58In front of Grandfather. Yeah, get out of here. This is the necklace that we've designed.
01:16:13Oh. Eternal love. I like it very much. Well, looks like you two have won the bet. Well, since
01:16:27that business is out of the way, there is one more thing. When am I going to seek some grandkids?
01:16:32I do. I'm not going to live forever, right? Not yet, Grandpa. Not yet. There's one thing
01:16:39that I want to do first. I would like to give Serena here a proper wedding.
01:16:46Thank you. For being in my life. For it is now brighter than ever.
01:17:09Thank you for everything. My home is now wherever you are.
01:17:26Why are you two here? Is that how you greet your mother? I don't have time for this. I
01:17:43will call the police if I have to. You have to help them out. You can't just leave her
01:17:47in there to die. What kind of mother wishes death upon her own flesh and blood? We don't
01:17:53know. The police told us that Bella tried to commit suicide. That bastard Reginald Owens.
01:18:00He blamed everything on her. Even took her money. Just look at us. He can't live like
01:18:05this. That money wasn't yours to spend in the first place. I'm... Please. I'm... Bella. You
01:18:14know she doesn't have many friends. She needs your help. Alright. We'll go and see her.
01:18:21Go. That's my girl. Get out of here.
01:18:28Let me guess. Mom cried her crocodile tears. She cares about you. You know that.
01:18:35If you had said dad, I would have believed you. That harlot only cares about money. So are
01:18:42you just gonna sit there and take this? That's not the Bella that I know. The Bella that I know
01:18:49doesn't roll over for anyone. Not any woman. And certainly not a man. You think I don't... Nice
01:18:56try.
01:18:58I lost. Remember. I won't be anyone's pawn again. I clawed my way across the board to become
01:19:05quiet. I lost my way across my head. If you had said dad, I would have believed you.
01:19:08I know doesn't roll over for anyone. Not any woman. And certainly not a man. You think I don't?
01:19:17Nice try.
01:19:20I lost, remember? But I won't be anyone's pawn again. I clawed my way across the board to become queen,
01:19:29but I was thrown away like a pawn anyway. Reginald has taken everything from you. Are you gonna let
01:19:35him win? Are you gonna let him take your life too? But you're right. If I don't fight back,
01:19:44I'll just be another piece of trash he used and dumped.
01:19:48I hate to admit it, but, um,
01:20:03I'm kind of like seeing you again.
