00:00:00Sir, our stock is being shorted aggressively. We're about to hit the limit down.
00:00:10What the hell is going on here?
00:00:13Half of you came from major investment banks.
00:00:16Our stock is about to crash, and you're telling me there's nothing we can do.
00:00:21Sir, this is a coordinated attack from multiple investment funds.
00:00:25They're shorting us simultaneously. There is nothing we can do.
00:00:29Sir, what are our next steps?
00:00:35Well, looks like Shepard Group might be bankrupt by lunchtime.
00:00:45Hey, this is a private meeting.
00:00:46Mr. Jason, excuse me ma'am. Could you hold on our cleaning for just a couple of minutes?
00:00:50Mr. Shepard, building a public company in just five years? That's impressive.
00:00:58But losing your cool over a little market turbulence? That seems out of character for you.
00:01:06Do I know you?
00:01:09What are you doing?
00:01:13What are you doing?
00:01:14You can't do this. You're just a cleaner.
00:01:16What are you messing with for company funds?
00:01:18This is incredible!
00:01:20What's going on?
00:01:22The trading attempt. It's failing! The price is holding!
00:01:27Boss, our stock price is reaching today's opening value.
00:01:34We met before.
00:01:35They're still cleaning to do Mr. Shepard.
00:01:38Hold on.
00:01:39Tell me.
00:01:40How could I ever repay you for this?
00:01:43If the opportunity ever arises, you could give your next contract for construction to Harrison Group.
00:01:52Jason?
00:01:53Can we have fun?
00:01:54No.
00:01:55Mr. Yates?
00:01:56What?
00:01:57Only two bodyguards this time?
00:01:58You're not going soft on me, are you?
00:01:59No, ma'am. I just thought you might like to scream today.
00:02:01Now, listen, everyone is waiting in New York for you to claim your inheritance as CEO of the Lewis Grimmel.
00:02:11Mr. Yates, you know that my investigations here aren't finished.
00:02:16Ma'am?
00:02:17Oh, no.
00:02:18No, ma'am.
00:02:19I just thought you might like to scream today.
00:02:21Now, listen.
00:02:22Everyone is waiting in New York for you to claim your inheritance as CEO of the Lewis Grimmel.
00:02:26Mr. Yates, you know that my investigations here aren't finished.
00:02:30Ma'am?
00:02:31I still don't understand why you've kept your identity a secret and why you've married this Ben Harrison fellow.
00:02:36Look, today is Ben's birthday.
00:02:38Anything we need to discuss, we can do it some other time.
00:02:41Ma'am, it really is time for you to accept your inheritance.
00:02:46Because what I want is a simple life with Ben.
00:02:50Ma'am, at least do me a favor and let Toby walk you onto the house for my sake.
00:03:01Ma'am.
00:03:02Ma'am.
00:03:03Ma'am.
00:03:04Ma'am.
00:03:05Ma'am.

00:03:39Ma'am.
00:03:40Ma'am.
00:03:41Ma'am.
00:03:42Ma'am.
00:03:43Ma'am.
00:03:44Ma'am.
00:03:45Ma'am.
00:03:46Ma'am.
00:03:47Ma'am.
00:03:48I did! It was my present to Ben for his birthday!
00:03:54I was the one who got Ryan Harrison to give Ben that deal.
00:03:58What are you doing here?
00:04:00Clearly Ben has found himself a woman more suitable for the Harrison family.
00:04:04Amber's family is practically local royalty.
00:04:07Local royalty? A small town rich person is royalty?
00:04:12And what qualifications do you have to judge, Ms. Cleaner?
00:04:15Your resume boasts supermarket cashier and dinner waitress alongside janitor, doesn't it?
00:04:20Ben?
00:04:23What's going on?
00:04:25Is this why you want a divorce? Because of her?
00:04:28Oh, please. I've spent years building Harrison Group.
00:04:32You're still a cleaner. You just grew apart, that's all.
00:04:35Growing apart?
00:04:38No.
00:04:40No, I won't sign any agreement then.
00:04:45I won't sign.
00:04:49Money is a motivator, isn't it?
00:04:52Ben?
00:04:53Alright. Here.
00:04:55A hundred thousand dollars. Open up a small shop or something like that.
00:04:59A hundred thousand dollars?
00:05:01I was the one that helped you make Harrison Group what it is today.
00:05:07Do you have any idea how much money I've brought in for you?
00:05:10Don't be ridiculous.
00:05:12You've never done anything for Ben's success.
00:05:14This is our act of charity to work.
00:05:17Here. A million dollars. Take this.
00:05:20You just want more money, don't you?
00:05:22Just leave and never see Ben again.
00:05:25I never expected my three years of devotion to end like this.
00:05:31Since none of you respect me.
00:05:35A cleaning lady. Threatening us.
00:05:38I'm so scared.
00:05:40Just leave. You already make this house stink.
00:05:43Thank God she's gone.
00:05:52Go to written store.
00:05:56Sir?
00:05:58Laura Lewis' information.
00:06:03She's Ben Harrison's wife.
00:06:05No wonder why she won his department.
00:06:07Actually sir, Ben Harrison just divorced her.
00:06:10The person?
00:06:14Wait a minute.
00:06:15Don't you remember?
00:06:16She's the one who helped us with the Smith contract three years ago.
00:06:21Yeah.
00:06:22She's saved our hiding now.
00:06:24Remember?
00:06:25Why would Ben Harrison dump someone who just got him a hundred million dollar contract?
00:06:29I don't know.
00:06:32Let's get to the bottom of this.
00:06:35Hey.
00:06:38What are you doing?
00:06:39Let go of me.
00:06:40You attacked Amber.
00:06:41Apologize this instant.
00:06:46Stealing from the Harrisons.
00:06:48We gave you a generous divorce settlement.
00:06:50You refused it.
00:06:51And now you're stealing.
00:06:53She couldn't afford it.
00:06:54You're a thief.
00:06:55That's mine.
00:06:56Give it back.
00:06:57That's enough.
00:06:58Laura?
00:06:59I want to say thank you properly for saving Shepard Group.
00:07:00It's really no worries, Mr. Shepard, but I'm just going through a divorce.
00:07:18You see, it's...
00:07:19Who are you?
00:07:20Laura's new squeeze.
00:07:22Excuse me.
00:07:23Do you know who I am?
00:07:24Is this true?
00:07:25You hooked up with this man while you were married to my son?
00:07:28Shame on you!
00:07:29Mr. Shepard, I...
00:07:30For your information, my name is Brian Shepard.
00:07:34I'm CEO of the Shepard Group.
00:07:36Oh, please.
00:07:37A big shot like Brian Shepard wouldn't be caught dead with a cleaner.
00:07:40You really don't recognize him, do you, Amber?
00:07:43That's really interesting considering I thought you were the one that secured that contract for Ben.
00:07:49That's ridiculous.
00:07:50He doesn't look like that.
00:07:52My ring.
00:07:53Jason, give it back to Ms. Lewis.
00:07:55Oh, hey, what are you doing?
00:07:59Laura, let's get you out of here.
00:08:01Now.
00:08:02Hold on a minute, Laura.
00:08:03Who the heck is this man?
00:08:05Have you been sneaking around?
00:08:07It's alright, ma'am.
00:08:08This is none of your business.
00:08:10I'll grab dead bodies.
00:08:11You're not going anywhere until that's when you tell us what's going on.
00:08:14We are the Harrisons.
00:08:16You can't just waltz in here and take her.
00:08:18Harrison, compared to the Shepard Group, you're nobody.
00:08:21Now go back.
00:08:22What?
00:08:23Are you saying that is Brian Shepard?
00:08:25That's a lie!
00:08:26Don't you dare walk away from me, Laura!
00:08:28You come back here and explain yourself!
00:08:30Don't you take another step towards my son, Laura!
00:08:35Laura, does Ben even know you were the one who secured the 100 million deal?
00:08:40Let's just say that Ben underestimated me.
00:08:44I don't feel good about going through the signing event.
00:08:47After how they treated you, maybe we should cancel it?
00:08:51No!
00:08:52Um...
00:08:53No, the event will proceed.
00:08:56Besides, I'll be there.
00:08:59There's a lot that I don't know about you, Laura.
00:09:05Who are you, truly?
00:09:07You'll find out, Mr. Shepard.
00:09:11Um, can you pull up over here, please?
00:09:14Mr. Yates, I want you to call all of the Lewis Group's business partners and we're gonna have a meeting.
00:09:25An investment meeting.
00:09:27One week from today.
00:09:28Make sure everyone is there.
00:09:32Is there.
00:09:33Because after that meeting, I'm gonna reclaim my place as the CEO of Lewis Group.
00:09:40Oh, excellent, Ms. Lewis.
00:09:42I'll start making arrangements tomorrow.
00:09:44Ben Harrison, you're gonna know exactly what it feels like to lose everything.
00:09:52After this ceremony, the Harrison family will finally be considered Maplewood City royalty.
00:10:03Only after then, my darling, we can get married.
00:10:07Laura, what are you doing here?
00:10:09Security!
00:10:10Get that woman out of here!
00:10:12We don't need cleaners at this event!
00:10:14Why wouldn't I be here?
00:10:16This is a business event, after all.
00:10:18Business?
00:10:19You wouldn't know business if I hit you on the head.
00:10:22A fancy dress doesn't make you high society, honey.
00:10:25Just get out!
00:10:26Don't tell me you've come looking for another rich man to play mistress for.
00:10:29You should've taken my $100,000 offer.
00:10:31Oh, Ben.
00:10:32Do you really think that you can sign this contract without me?
00:10:36Laura, this is really important for me.
00:10:38Do not ruin this, okay?
00:10:40You don't belong here.
00:10:42Just get out!
00:10:49That's what you get.
00:10:54This contract is mine.
00:10:58To give or take away as I see fit.
00:11:01Don't be ridiculous!
00:11:02This is insane!
00:11:03Who do you think you are?
00:11:05Yeah, put that down.
00:11:06You have no idea what you're doing.
00:11:08Security!
00:11:09She's lost a mind!
00:11:10This is a disaster!
00:11:12Ben, this contract was supposed to be my birthday present to you,
00:11:16but since you clearly don't deserve it...
00:11:46You really think ripping up that contract is gonna help?
00:11:49You're so silly, Laura.
00:11:50Oh, please, honey.
00:11:51You couldn't explain business to a cleaning lady.
00:11:54Security!
00:11:55Get this woman out of here before she makes another mess.
00:11:57I was the one that started this deal with the Shepherds.
00:12:01And after careful consideration,
00:12:04I don't think the Harrison family is worthy of working with the Shepherds.
00:12:09You really think that the Shepard group and I could be torn up by something that you've done?
00:12:14You have no authority here.
00:12:15Of course she has the authority.
00:12:24That's the man that Laura went with the other day.
00:12:26What is he doing here?
00:12:27Mr. Shepard?
00:12:28How does he know her?
00:12:29Is that really Brian Shepard?
00:12:31Laura, are you alright?
00:12:35Mr. Shepard, I can assure you, I don't even know this woman.
00:12:38There must be some sort of misunderstanding.
00:12:40There's no misunderstanding here, Mr. Harrison.
00:12:43This contract with Shepard group is officially terminated.
00:12:48Effective immediately.
00:12:51Wait a minute.
00:12:52This contract, I thought you said you got it.
00:12:54It's her.
00:12:55She ruined the contract.
00:12:56You are his mistress, aren't you?
00:12:58An affair?
00:12:59She had an affair with that man behind my son's back?
00:13:04Mom, please, it's okay.
00:13:05This man is...
00:13:06Don't touch me!
00:13:07That woman destroyed your career in front of everyone, has an affair and you just stand there?
00:13:13You're a disgrace.
00:13:14An adulterer.
00:13:15Mom, shut up!
00:13:16You deserve to be over-
00:13:17Shut up!
00:13:20Mr. Shepard, I apologize for this whole mess, but I can assure you, this woman has tricked you.
00:13:26Tricked?
00:13:28Why don't you answer a question yourself, Ben?
00:13:31What was my name before we got married?
00:13:36Laura Lewis, right?
00:13:38Lewis Group?
00:13:39The Financial Giants?
00:13:41There's no way a Lewis is connected to this.
00:13:46That's crazy.
00:13:47There's no way you're related to the Lewis family name.
00:13:50That's absurd.
00:13:51A high society heirs wouldn't waste their time in Maplewood.
00:13:58Yeah.
00:13:59Yeah, it's a lie.
00:14:00It's a lie.
00:14:01This woman was a waitress when I met her.
00:14:03In fact, I saved her from a robbery three years ago.
00:14:07She's nothing special.
00:14:08She only married me out of gratitude.
00:14:10I was just a waitress.
00:14:13How convenient for your story, Ben.
00:14:15First time I met her, she was indeed a waitress at the diner.
00:14:18Okay, listen up, everybody.
00:14:20When I met her, I'd only just started my business.
00:14:23Mm-hmm.
00:14:24Now look at me.
00:14:25I'm signing multi-million dollar contracts.
00:14:27And look at her.
00:14:28Still just a clear.
00:14:30Mr. Shepard, that woman is my son's ex-wife.
00:14:34She's doing all this out of spite.
00:14:36She's lying, Mr. Shepard.
00:14:38She's just a cleaning lady for your business, isn't she?
00:14:43Let's make something clear.
00:14:46I was the one behind Harrison Group's success.
00:14:50I used my resources to help my ex-husband.
00:14:54But all he saw me as was the maid.
00:14:56Don't lie.
00:14:57You were never good enough for Ben when you married him.
00:15:00Oops.
00:15:01That roof was built with lies.
00:15:04Kathy, you never respected me.
00:15:06And Ben, dumping me the second you thought you were successful on your own.
00:15:11And the cheating.
00:15:12I think you're blaming the wrong person.
00:15:17You were not good enough for Ben then and you're certainly not good enough for him now.
00:15:21If you'd prefer to believe a liar's story, then the truth, Kathy.
00:15:27Consider this my resignation from the Harrisons.
00:15:31From everything.
00:15:37Wait, wait, wait, wait.
00:15:38Laura, you think you can just walk in here and, you know, ruin everything?
00:15:40And then just walk out like nothing happened?
00:15:42I don't think so.
00:15:43You're a cleaner.
00:15:44You're a cleaner that cleans toilets.
00:15:46Nobody cares about you.
00:15:48Cleaning toilets or not, at least I have my self-respect.
00:15:52I don't need a fancy title or a rich husband to feel important.
00:15:59I think there has been some sort of misunderstanding.
00:16:04I think all jobs are important.
00:16:06Right, Mom?
00:16:07Ben, what are you doing?
00:16:09But I don't think that a janitor should have some sort of influence over a deal as big as this.
00:16:14A janitor.
00:16:16Well, why don't we ask Miss Smith exactly how she landed that collaboration with Shepard?
00:16:24You did claim to have been the one that secured the deal.
00:16:28Aren't you, Miss Smith?
00:16:30Mr. Shepard, it's all a lie.
00:16:32This woman, Laura, she's just a gold digger trying to trick you.
00:16:37I... but, well...
00:16:39A lie, you say?
00:16:40Miss Smith, I believe you mentioned securing this contract for Harris syndrome.
00:16:44But I don't recognize you.
00:16:46Is this true, Miss Smith?
00:16:49Miss Lewis has helped me on several occasions.
00:16:53This contract was my way of showing my appreciation.
00:16:57But the contract...
00:16:59I mean, Laura tore it up.
00:17:01So can't we just print another one and get this signing ceremony underway?
00:17:06Reprinted, Mr. Harrison.
00:17:08Perhaps you haven't been paying attention without Miss Lewis involvement.
00:17:12I wouldn't even consider partnering with your company.
00:17:19Today, I want to make it clear.
00:17:22Shepard group has no plans to partner with Harrison group in the future.
00:17:30Miss Smith, you lied to us.
00:17:32You destroyed everything.
00:17:34What?
00:17:35No, it's a misunderstanding.
00:17:36I can explain.
00:17:37Lewis?
00:17:38Lewis family group?
00:17:40This can't be.
00:17:42Believe what you want, Ben.
00:17:44Lewis group will be holding a massive investment meeting later this week.
00:17:49Three of our vice presidents will be here in Maplewood.
00:17:54And I'm sure you can ask them if you still have any doubts about who I am.
00:18:01Everyone, listen to me.
00:18:03Shepard group will not be partnering with Harrison.
00:18:07A man who can keep his vows to his wife cannot be trusted to keep his word on the contract.
00:18:14The survey is over, Miss Harrison.
00:18:16Everyone here deserves to see the truth.
00:18:22Miss Lewis, shall we take this conversation elsewhere?
00:18:32Help!
00:18:33Mom!
00:18:34Someone get her doctor!
00:18:35Mom!
00:18:36It seems your night has taken quite the turn, Mr. Shepard.
00:18:42Indeed.
00:18:43Perhaps it's best to leave them to it.
00:18:57What?
00:18:58What now?
00:18:59Mom, this is not all on me.
00:19:01Not on you?
00:19:02I was trying to help.
00:19:04She cheated on you with Shepard.
00:19:07Flaunted their affair.
00:19:08Exactly.
00:19:09And those dresses?
00:19:11Who could afford those on a janitor's salary?
00:19:14Miss Smith, how could you do this?
00:19:17We trusted you completely.
00:19:19No, no.
00:19:20I got Ben the deal.
00:19:22I had no idea Shepard would fall for Laura.
00:19:25She's a liar.
00:19:27Well, stop it, Amber.
00:19:28You lied to us just as much as she did.
00:19:31Lied?
00:19:32You're on my side.
00:19:34And anyways, I have a plan.
00:19:36The Shepards are no one special.
00:19:38We can expose Laura in all her lies.
00:19:41Go national.
00:19:42We can make ourselves a household name.
00:19:45Now, if you'll excuse me, I have a very important phone call to me.
00:19:51Thank you so much for tonight, Mr. Shepard.
00:19:58Thank you as well for standing up for me.
00:20:01It's alright, Laura.
00:20:03You deserve the credit for all your hard work.
00:20:05Can I ask you something?
00:20:06Do you have any place to stay tonight?
00:20:08Maybe a hotel?
00:20:09Don't.
00:20:10Don't worry about me, Mr. Shepard.
00:20:12I'll be fine.
00:20:13Excuse me, you can just drop me off.
00:20:16Actually, Laura.
00:20:17Actually, Laura.
00:20:18There is something else.
00:20:20Would you consider going out for dinner sometime?
00:20:23Just casually, of course.
00:20:25Mr. Shepard, are you asking me out?
00:20:29Please, call me Brian.
00:20:31And yes, technically, you're single now.
00:20:36Yes, that may be true, but going out with a newly divorced ex-cleaner isn't exactly proper.
00:20:47Proper?
00:20:48Laura, I don't give a damn about appearances.
00:20:53Tonight, I saw your intelligence and your strength.
00:20:57Those are qualities I truly admire.
00:21:00So what do you say?
00:21:02Dinner?
00:21:03Just two people getting to know each other.
00:21:07I'm sorry, Mr. Shepard.
00:21:12I actually have another appointment tonight, so I can't.
00:21:16Wait, Laura.
00:21:17Just here is fine.
00:21:21Laura?
00:21:26Laura!
00:21:27Who is it?
00:21:28Laura, wait!
00:21:29Jason, find out who owns that car and do it fast.
00:21:38Ian Lewis, who is this?
00:21:44It's Amber Smith.
00:21:46Mr. Lewis?
00:21:47I'm sorry for the late call, but I believe I have some urgent information about your family.
00:21:52I don't know who you are, Miss Smith.
00:21:55How did you get this number?
00:21:57Don't worry about that right now.
00:21:59I believe I know someone impersonating Laura Lewis.
00:22:02Someone I know very well.
00:22:04Impersonating my niece?
00:22:07And where is this fake Laura?
00:22:11Right here in Maplewood.
00:22:13And let me tell you, she's causing quite a scene.
00:22:17Well, what is she doing exactly?
00:22:21And more to the point, what do you want from me?
00:22:25In the next few days, the Lewis Group will hold an investment meeting, right?
00:22:30I want to meet with the Vice Presidents.
00:22:33All will be revealed then.
00:22:35Very well.
00:22:36I'll have my secretary arrange a meeting.
00:22:39But be warned, if this is a waste of my time, I-
00:22:42It won't be.
00:22:43Trust me, Mr. Lewis.
00:22:45Thank you, Mr.
00:22:46That little rascal, Laura.
00:22:54I wonder what she's up to now.
00:23:01That car belongs to Mr. Yeats, the Lewis family bubbler.
00:23:04Oh.
00:23:05Lewis family.
00:23:06That's interesting.
00:23:07Could she be connected to them somehow?
00:23:08I'm not sure.
00:23:09Brian!
00:23:10There you are.
00:23:11I've missed you.
00:23:12Chloe.
00:23:13What are you up to?
00:23:14Chloe, what are you doing here?
00:23:15What do you mean?
00:23:16Can't I visit the man I love?
00:23:17We ended things for a reason.
00:23:18It was just one teensy mistake.
00:23:19I was, I was a little bit tipsy.
00:23:20Doesn't everyone deserve a second chance?
00:23:21Teensy mistake you said?
00:23:22You cheated on me.
00:23:23Is this your new fling?
00:23:24Ex-divorcy.
00:23:25Used a clean floor.
00:23:26It's quite the catch.
00:23:27Used a clean floor.
00:23:28Used a clean floor.
00:23:29It's quite the catch.
00:23:30Used a clean floor.
00:23:31What are you up to?
00:23:32What are you up to?
00:23:33Chloe, what are you doing here?
00:23:34What do you mean?
00:23:35Can't I visit the man I love?
00:23:36We ended things for a reason.
00:23:37You got to see.
00:23:38And everyone's welfare and hands.
00:23:39Didn't want to visit my life.
00:23:40No pains.
00:23:41I'm anpesy.
00:23:42Doesn't everyone deserve a second chance.
00:23:44It's a mistake you said, you cheated on me.
00:23:47Is this your new fling?
00:23:49Ex-divorcy.
00:23:50Used a clean floor.
00:23:51It's quite the catch.
00:23:52Usain.
00:23:53Look, my relationship with her is none of your business.
00:23:58And don't you dare talk about her like that.
00:24:01Please.
00:24:02An ex-cleaner turned social climber latching onto a well-edged house.
00:24:06latching on to a wealthy businessman.
00:24:08It's a classic story.
00:24:09That's enough.
00:24:10I'll get the hell out of my office.
00:24:13You want to be careful, Brian.
00:24:15Duke Industries still holds a lot of weight in Maplewood.
00:24:18If you want Shepherd Group to stay afloat,
00:24:21you ought to be more careful.
00:24:26Seems like you've got more on your plate than Laura's secrets now.
00:24:29This is it.
00:24:36The Lewis Group vice presidents are on the top floor.
00:24:39Once I'm done speaking with them,
00:24:41I'll have Ben's company rolling in business investments.
00:24:44I'll go speak with them first, and then I'll introduce you.
00:24:48Well, well, well, look who it is.
00:24:51What a surprise.
00:24:53Did Brian teach you already?
00:24:55That's none of your business.
00:24:58Now move aside, please.
00:24:59Laura?
00:25:00Just what do you think you're doing, you street rat?
00:25:03You really think you can just ruin my events again?
00:25:05Haven't you ruined my life enough?
00:25:06Don't you have any shame?
00:25:07If you'll excuse me,
00:25:09I have an important meeting to get to.
00:25:11Oh, the nurse.
00:25:13After everything you've done,
00:25:14you think you can just waltz in here and manipulate them too?
00:25:18Seriously?
00:25:19I think you need to reconsider exactly who's manipulating who here.
00:25:23Oh, that's gold.
00:25:25You really think that they're gonna let you in, Laura?
00:25:27Please, you're no one compared to me.
00:25:30You don't deserve to be here.
00:25:32The only ones who don't belong here are you three.
00:25:37And you, an idiot, believing every lie that she tells you.
00:25:40Wake up, Ben.
00:25:42Oh, Laura!
00:25:44Laura, come on.
00:25:45Why do you always pull this on me?
00:25:47I mean, seriously,
00:25:48can't you just let me enjoy one of my events for once?
00:25:50Well, I know what this is.
00:25:53So stupid.
00:25:54Oh, such a trap!
00:25:57Amber spoke directly with the CEO.
00:25:59We invited her to meet with the VPs before the main meeting.
00:26:02Yeah, Amber got me a partnership with the Loose Group.
00:26:06And unlike some people, I have a real invitation.
00:26:09Well, before you all start celebrating, why don't you take a look at this.
00:26:22Oh, that's rich.
00:26:23You may have Brian Shepard fooled, but you can't fool me.
00:26:26I spoke to Ian Lewis himself, CEO of Loose Group.
00:26:30Speaking of Brian, where is he right now?
00:26:33You mean my uncle?
00:26:36Ian, don't be ridiculous.
00:26:39Ian Lewis personally gave me this invitation himself.
00:26:43And besides, this looks fake.
00:26:46She's a liar.
00:26:49This is a personal invitation from Mr. Yates himself.
00:26:53It grants me access to the VIP elevator, which leads straight to the vice presidential suite.
00:26:58She's lying.
00:26:59What do you mean?
00:27:00They don't have a VIP elevator in this hotel.
00:27:06Is there a special elevator for VIPs in this hotel?
00:27:10Not that I know of.
00:27:12See? She's lying.
00:27:14There you have it, Laura.
00:27:15Even the hotel staff can spot a fake.
00:27:17Go on, get lost before things get worse.
00:27:23Here, take this one.
00:27:24Lead me to the vice presidents.
00:27:26You have no idea.
00:27:29What you just did.
00:27:30There will be consequences.
00:27:34Besides, 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?
00:27:45Security! Security! We need this woman removed immediately. She is harassing me.
00:27:49We're done with your games, Laura. You're just a fraud.
00:27:52Man, the place we're here.
00:27:53What?
00:27:54Hold on!
00:27:55You have to be here.
00:27:56You have to be here.
00:27:58Brian Shepard?
00:28:00You think money buys you the right to walk all over people? Well it doesn't.
00:28:04Yeah, wasn't enough to kick us out of Maplewood, was it, huh?
00:28:07What other plans do you have to destroy this town?
00:28:09Get you out?
00:28:10After what you did to Laura, you had it coming.
00:28:13Don'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.
00:28:22Hold on a second. An affair? You think Laura and I? You people are unbelievable.
00:28:32Mr. Carter, get down here ASAP. We have a situation.
00:28:37What, you think you can just boss the manager around now? Is that it?
00:28:40We'll stick around and watch you crash and burn.
00:28:43Ms. Lewis, apologies for the delay. How can I help you this evening?
00:28:46Thank you, Mr. Carter, for getting down here so quickly. It seems there's a misunderstanding.
00:28:53These people don't think that I belong here.
00:28:56Well, Mr. Carter, I can assure you, this woman is a cleaner.
00:28:59A cleaner? Nonsense. I personally agreed to Ms. Lewis upon her arrival in Maplewood three years ago.
00:29:05Exactly.
00:29:07Lewis Group, my company, has some major investments planned here in Maplewood.
00:29:14I was just here investigating potential business opportunities.
00:29:18No, this woman doesn't know the difference between business and a hole in the ground.
00:29:22She's been this way since my son divorced her. She's insane.
00:29:26Actually, I met Laura three years ago at the coffee shop.
00:29:30She helped secure a profitable investment for Sheppard Group.
00:29:34No, it's a lie. Mr. Sheppard, she's tricking you too.
00:29:38You know, it's exhausting trying to argue with people who forget who helped them.
00:29:47Mr. Carter, would you mind showing me to the VIP elevator?
00:29:51Wait, is that why you're covering for her? Huh? Because of the affair? Because she slept with you?
00:29:55Excuse me? Of course.
00:29:57Who are you and how dare you speak to Ms. Lewis that way?
00:29:59Enough of this. She-
00:30:00That's enough. Heaven will embarrass herself enough.
00:30:03This is Lewis Group property.
00:30:05Behave or I'll call security.
00:30:07But she doesn't even have a VIP entrance access.
00:30:11She shouldn't be here.
00:30:12Since you're having trouble understanding them, let me make it clear.
00:30:17This hotel is owned by the Lewis family.
00:30:20It's mine to come or go as I please.
00:30:29Thank you for stepping in, Ryan. I owe you one. We'll talk about this later.
00:30:35Well, it seems that divorcing a powerful woman wasn't the best decision Mr. Rivers.
00:30:40Excuse me, Vice Presidents. I'm Amber Smith, General Manager of the Lewis Group Maplewood Branch.
00:30:57I believe Ian Lewis told you about our meeting today?
00:31:00Maplewood Branch. Our records don't show any Maplewood Branch, Ms. Smith.
00:31:06Are you sure you haven't gotten something mixed up?
00:31:11Ian Lewis- Mr. Lewis reassured me that today we would discuss, well, expansion plans.
00:31:20Expansion plans? Ms. Smith?
00:31:24A decision like that wouldn't be taken without board approval.
00:31:27And frankly, we haven't heard anything about Maplewood Branch.
00:31:32But Ian Lewis assured me that-
00:31:34Ms. Smith, we have a very important guest arriving soon.
00:31:38Perhaps you'd like to schedule a follow-up meeting with one of our staff?
00:31:41Maybe I can stay for this guest and offer some local-
00:31:44Ms. Smith, we'd like you to leave. If you don't, we'll call security.
00:31:52Hey, stop there. This elevator is a VIP only. Back, please.
00:31:58Of course. My apologies.
00:31:59My apologies.
00:32:06Laura?
00:32:09Vice Presidents! It's so good to see all of you again.
00:32:13Ms. Lewis, it's been too long.
00:32:17Your return is a lifesaver, Ms. Lewis. The Lewis Group has floundered under your uncle's, well, shall we say, unconventional leadership.
00:32:25The board are begging you to come back, Ms. Lewis.
00:32:30Well, please sit. Yes, well, it is time for me to get my career back on track.
00:32:37We've got a meeting planned, a big one, in just a few days.
00:32:41Local powerhouses and smaller players, too. They'll all be there in one spot.
00:32:48Ms. Lewis, we met with an Amber Smith. She claimed your uncle appointed her general manager of a Maplewood branch for the Lewis Group.
00:32:59She said that, did she? Well, Ms. Smith is a liar. There is no Maplewood branch, at least not yet.
00:33:07She lied so blatantly. It's unbelievable.
00:33:10But, don't worry. I found a much more suitable partner. Shepard Group.
00:33:16Shepard Group? Their rise to a public company has been impressive. Do you have anything to do with that?
00:33:25So, what happens now with this Amber Smith?
00:33:30Oh, don't worry about Amber. I've got plans for her.
00:33:35Ms. Lewis, consider this your official invitation to the legend. From us.
00:33:46Cheers. Cheers.
00:33:57No, I'm not leaving. What are you talking about? No, come on.
00:34:00Wait! I'm Amber Smith. I'm the Lewis Group manager of Maplewood branch. What are you talking about?
00:34:04These are my guests. Yeah, that's right. Tell them who we are.
00:34:08Yes, we were waiting for Ms. Smith.
00:34:11Lewis Group, Maplewood branch? No such thing, ma'am. And frankly, I'm not interested in your act.
00:34:17Of course. Laura! She's probably sleeping with the manager as well. That's how she gets away with everything.
00:34:24You underestimate her, Kathy. She's probably sleeping with all three vice presidents.
00:34:29No way a girl like her could get into a hotel like this.
00:34:31Careful with your words. Both of you. Acquisitions like that can get you in serious trouble.
00:34:40Look who can't even get into a meeting.
00:34:42Whilst I secure three with all the vice presidents.
00:34:46And let's not forget the mystery guests that they're bringing to Maplewood.
00:34:50Looks like she used you and tossed you aside.
00:34:52Used me? Unlike some people, I don't mind being helpful.
00:34:56You're so stupid. She threw you away like yesterday's trash.
00:35:01Don'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.
00:35:12New branch manager, huh? Interesting.
00:35:17Laura Lewis? What are you doing here? Get out of here!
00:35:20You claim to be the mystery guest.
00:35:23Don't play games, Laura. I was formally invited by Lewis Group themselves to the investment meeting.
00:35:29Only the top companies get those. Looks like you're all out of luck.
00:35:34Is that so?
00:35:36Well then, there seems to be a misunderstanding.
00:35:40You see, I'm not sure if you know Miss Smith, but Lewis Group is my company.
00:35:46And I decide who goes to the meetings.
00:35:51Escort them out. Their visit is over.
00:35:54Oh, come on. This way, please.
00:35:57I'm not leaving.
00:35:59Move. We're not leaving again. Move.
00:36:01Oh, no, no, no. We're not going. Now.
00:36:04This isn't over, Laura. You'll see.
00:36:09Thanks for waiting, then.
00:36:12Laura, I'm glad you're okay.
00:36:16And thank you for defending me. I really appreciate it.
00:36:24Um, are you coming to the meeting?
00:36:28Yes, but it's going to be tricky.
00:36:34Why? I'm sure that Shepard Group got an invitation.
00:36:40Yes, Laura.
00:36:43There's something you should know.
00:36:46Is this about Ben?
00:36:49Ben, because I can assure you that he won't cause any problems. He won't even get past security.
00:36:55Laura, it's not Ben.
00:36:59It's someone else.
00:37:02Someone's causing problems for Shepard Group?
00:37:04Yes.
00:37:07Her name is Chloe Duke.
00:37:11She is daughter of the Duke family.
00:37:15She's my ex-fiance.
00:37:17And, uh, let's say things didn't end so well between us.
00:37:24And, let's just say we didn't end things so well.
00:37:30And, for some reason, she's having a hard time moving on.
00:37:35And, you think that she's going to cause problems at the meeting?
00:37:43For...
00:37:47Out of...
00:37:49Jealousy?
00:37:51There's a possibility. She's kind of jealous.
00:37:54Well...
00:37:55All the more reason for you to be there.
00:37:59Besides...
00:38:01I'll be there too.
00:38:05Laura...
00:38:07Would you consider being a guest at the meeting?
00:38:11What?
00:38:12Are you worried that this Chloe is going to cause problems for me too?
00:38:16Maybe a little.
00:38:18But mostly...
00:38:19I want to show them your team.
00:38:21Well...
00:38:22It's a very kind offer, Mr. Shepard.
00:38:27Laura...
00:38:32I don't care about your best.
00:38:34I just want to be by your side.
00:38:36I think I'm falling for you.
00:38:42Ryan...
00:38:43I...
00:38:49I appreciate your honesty and...
00:38:52Right now...
00:38:53I...
00:38:54I'm just not...
00:38:55I...
00:38:56I just don't really have romance on my mind right now.
00:38:59Just with...
00:39:00With everything going on...
00:39:02And...
00:39:03Going on and...
00:39:04It's okay.
00:39:05I just want to be upfront.
00:39:07And if Glantra is anything...
00:39:10You won't face her alone.
00:39:11There's just...
00:39:15One thing...
00:39:16I do need.
00:39:18What is it?
00:39:21A formal dress.
00:39:34Ah! Security!
00:39:35She doesn't belong here.
00:39:36This is a private store.
00:39:38Excuse me.
00:39:40We...
00:39:41Need some assistance.
00:39:42I'm looking for...
00:39:43A very particular dress.
00:39:47Wow.
00:39:48It's...
00:39:49Beautiful.
00:39:50It is.
00:39:51I'll try this one on.
00:39:53Don't bother with her.
00:39:54She can't afford anything here.
00:39:56She's just a cleaner.
00:39:57She doesn't deserve to shop you.
00:39:59She has no money.
00:40:02Yeah, exactly.
00:40:03I mean, what are you doing here?
00:40:04Can't you just leave me alone?
00:40:05I wouldn't bat an eyelash...
00:40:07If you just...
00:40:08Disappeared.
00:40:09I'm here for...
00:40:10Retail therapy.
00:40:12Oh, please.
00:40:13This store is for the A-list only.
00:40:15Not some cheapskate like you.
00:40:17Says the woman who barged into my marriage.
00:40:19Hey!
00:40:20Show some respect.
00:40:22Typical Laura.
00:40:23Just thinks she can buy anything she wants...
00:40:25With someone else's money.
00:40:26I would have asked you, but...
00:40:28Without me, I'm sure you're already broke.
00:40:30Oh, please.
00:40:31Come on, we'll take the dress.
00:40:32Sir, this particular dress is not for sale.
00:40:36Uh, what do you mean you don't sell it?
00:40:38I want it.
00:40:39Name your price.
00:40:40It's not about the price, ma'am.
00:40:42This one was custom made for Miss Lewis, the Lewis Group heiress.
00:40:46The entire brand belongs to her.
00:40:48This beautiful dress is for display purposes.
00:40:50Do anyway, Amber.
00:40:51What are you talking about?
00:40:53Of course it would suit her.
00:40:54It'd fit her just fine.
00:40:55And if it wouldn't fit me, it certainly wouldn't fit your chunky self either.
00:40:59Well, buying the whole store, allow me to purchase this dress.
00:41:07Oh, please.
00:41:08Don't you know that this store belongs to Lewis Group?
00:41:11We wouldn't sell it to someone like you.
00:41:13Amber, you're not even a branch manager yet.
00:41:16You don't get to speak on behalf of Lewis Group.
00:41:18Could you?
00:41:19Please tell me more about this dress.
00:41:21Of course.
00:41:22Uh, it was custom made for Laura Lewis, heiress to the Lewis Group Fortune.
00:41:28Hand stitched in Italy, naturally.
00:41:31And apparently there are many more like it this year.
00:41:34High-end stores and museums around the world from her private collection.
00:41:39Laura, do you like this dress?
00:41:42Of course.
00:41:43It's custom made for me.
00:41:45I'm just here to take what's already mine.
00:41:48Oh, you can't be serious.
00:41:50There must be millions of Laura Lewis's out there in the world.
00:41:53Fine, fine.
00:41:54If it's not for sale, can't I at least try it on?
00:41:57It would look incredible on me.
00:41:59Miss, this dress is very delicate.
00:42:02If I may be frank, I don't think this would fit you properly.
00:42:07Are you calling me fat?
00:42:08Actually, on a second thought.
00:42:11Why don't we just buy the whole brand?
00:42:14How's that sound?
00:42:15Sir, are you serious?
00:42:16You would just buy the entire brand for one dress?
00:42:20This brand is worth at least 50 million dollars.
00:42:23And to buy it for a waitress?
00:42:26Are you out of your mind?
00:42:27Yes.
00:42:28You see, even if you had the money, they wouldn't sell it to you.
00:42:31Just one second.
00:42:32Yes, this is Brian Shepard, CEO of Shepard Group.
00:42:38I'd like to speak with your head of acquisitions.
00:42:41I'm interested in purchasing your high fashion brand.
00:42:47What?
00:42:50Sorry, sir.
00:42:51That brand is not for sale.
00:42:53You see, if we can't have it, neither can you.
00:43:00Mr. Yates.
00:43:01Yes, this is Laura Lewis.
00:43:04I'm calling to discuss the sale of our high-end clothing brand to Shepard Group.
00:43:10Oh, come on.
00:43:12Calling the Lewis family butler won't get you anywhere, sweetie.
00:43:15Exactly.
00:43:16Come on, this is pathetic.
00:43:17You really think this is going to work?
00:43:18It's sad.
00:43:19Excellent.
00:43:21Thank you, Mr. Yates.
00:43:22That's all.
00:43:27Yes.
00:43:34What?
00:43:35Are you willing to submit the brand?
00:43:39Awesome.
00:43:45Hello?
00:43:46Yes.
00:43:48Wow.
00:43:49Yes, of course.
00:43:50Absolutely.
00:43:53The store, along with the entire brand, has been sold to Mr. Shepard.
00:43:59The Shepard Group is the new owner.
00:44:01How may I be upstairs today, sir?
00:44:04Well, Laura, I don't know much about fashion.
00:44:07So I would like to give you this brand to you.
00:44:10You can't be serious.
00:44:12You don't have the kind of money to buy this store.
00:44:14Don't listen to her, Brian.
00:44:17You two just go do whatever you do somewhere else.
00:44:21You're not welcome here.
00:44:22I want the two of these out of my store.
00:44:28I want the two of these out of my store.
00:44:31Of course.
00:44:33Oh, come on.
00:44:35Sir? Ma'am?
00:44:36We're afraid I have to ask you to leave?
00:44:37Well, we're not leaving.
00:44:38Okay?
00:44:39Hey, hey, hey!
00:44:40This isn't over, Laura!
00:44:42Could I try the dress on now?
00:44:44Of course, Miss Lewis.
00:44:46You just follow me.
00:44:53Wow.
00:44:55Miss Lewis, this dress really was made for you.
00:45:01Laura, you look breathtaking in this race.
00:45:05Brian, why would you do all of this for me?
00:45:10For me?
00:45:11Laura.
00:45:14Because you deserve everything beautiful in the world.
00:45:18And that includes this dress.
00:45:23Will you give us a chance to see where things could go?
00:45:27I...
00:45:29I need a moment.
00:45:31Perhaps we could talk some more about this after the investment meeting?
00:45:36Does that mean you could be a yes?
00:45:39Hi.
00:45:48Hi.
00:45:51What?
00:45:53Well, well, well.
00:45:55Look who decided to join the party.
00:45:57Playing dress-up again, Laura?
00:45:58One more disrespectful remark towards Laura, Miss Smith.
00:46:02And you understand the meaning of rude.
00:46:04You threatening my girlfriend in front of everyone?
00:46:07For this.
00:46:08This gold digger.
00:46:10You know, Ben, I really cared about you,
00:46:13even after all the horrible things you said to me after our divorce.
00:46:16I knew the name of a great psychologist in New York.
00:46:19Maybe the shrinks in Maplewood aren't equipped to deal with your issues.
00:46:25Enough!
00:46:27I've had enough of this drama.
00:46:28Yeah, me too.
00:46:30Try that again, and you'll regret it.
00:46:33I'll get the hell out of my face.
00:46:35Let's see if you two even make it past the door.
00:46:37Yeah.
00:46:39I'm sorry, Miss Smith, but your name's not on the guest list.
00:46:43What?
00:46:44That's impossible.
00:46:46I was invited by the CEO himself.
00:46:51Unfortunately, neither Harrison Group or Smith Group,
00:46:54your name is on the list.
00:46:56Looks like you two won't be getting let in after all.
00:46:59You don't have an invitation.
00:47:01You're just here because of Brian.
00:47:02Let me see this. This doesn't even look real.
00:47:08It's different from mine.
00:47:10Why don't you ask her if it's real?
00:47:15This appears to be a VIP invitation from the Vice President.
00:47:20Please, right this way.
00:47:22We can continue this discussion later.
00:47:24If you manage to get in.
00:47:25Sir?
00:47:30Madam?
00:47:31We recommend you leave.
00:47:34There you are!
00:47:36How dare you steal my fiancé!
00:47:40There you are!
00:47:42How dare you steal my fiancé!
00:47:44Looks like another relationship bites the dust, Laura.
00:47:47Looks like stealing men is a habit of yours.
00:47:50Get away from him!
00:47:52He's engaged to me!
00:47:53Hey, hey, hey.
00:47:54Hold your horses, Glenn.
00:47:55That ended a long time ago.
00:47:57Engage to you.
00:47:59Everyone in Maplewood knows what you did to Brian.
00:48:03Your relationship's history.
00:48:06That was just a little tiff.
00:48:08You really think that could tear us apart?
00:48:10Don't you know who I am?
00:48:12Don't pretend like you don't know.
00:48:15Oh, honey.
00:48:16She don't recognize royalty, let alone a duke.
00:48:19She's just a maid, remember?
00:48:20I don't have time for all this drama.
00:48:23Brian?
00:48:25Let's head inside.
00:48:27Brian!
00:48:29How could you choose this cleaner over me?
00:48:32Are you really going to humiliate me in front of all of Maplewood?
00:48:36There's nothing left to say, Gloria.
00:48:38Don't make this a scene.
00:48:40Shall we?
00:48:41You okay, Miss Duke?
00:48:43And you are?
00:48:45Amber Smith.
00:48:46I'm the Maplewood branch manager of Lewis Group.
00:48:48What branch? I've never heard of it.
00:48:49What do you want from me?
00:48:50That Laura!
00:48:52She tore up my invitation.
00:48:53Do you think you can get me inside?
00:48:55What, your little manager title couldn't get you past the front door?
00:48:57Please don't waste my time.
00:48:58Please don't waste my time.
00:48:59She tore up my invitation.
00:49:01Do you think you can get me inside?
00:49:03What, your little manager title couldn't get you past the front door?
00:49:07Please don't waste my time.
00:49:29If I can't have Brian, neither can you.
00:49:43The Duke family has more influence than you think.
00:49:47Chloe, good to see you. I've been expecting you.
00:49:51Uncle Jones, how are you?
00:49:53Good.
00:49:55I need your help with something.
00:49:57What is it? Anything for my little Chloe.
00:50:00It's Brian.
00:50:02Who's that woman? I thought you were...
00:50:05She's a con woman.
00:50:07She actually used to be a cleaner in his company.
00:50:09What?
00:50:11Are you saying Brian left you for a cleaner?
00:50:15She's pretending to be Lewis to get close to him.
00:50:19What are you planning?
00:50:22I want to destroy Shepherd Group.
00:50:27Anyway, I am terribly sorry about Chloe.
00:50:31I had no idea she would be so...
00:50:35intense.
00:50:37What do you mean?
00:50:39You so should have taken her up on her offer.
00:50:42I mean you guys are just...
00:50:45Power couple.
00:50:47I see what you're doing.
00:50:50Power couple you say.
00:50:52More like a disaster waiting to happen.
00:50:56Anyway, shall we take a seat?
00:50:59Actually Brian, my seat is...
00:51:03It's up there.
00:51:05Really?
00:51:07She doesn't deserve to sit there.
00:51:09Excuse me.
00:51:10This is my VIP invitation.
00:51:13I can sit wherever I like.
00:51:16Hey, what do you think you're doing?
00:51:18This is signed by all three VPs of Lewis Group.
00:51:21Where did you get this?
00:51:23Who did you have to sleep with?
00:51:25That's enough.
00:51:27This is getting us nowhere.
00:51:30Laura is my guest.
00:51:32And I will not tolerate any kind of disrespect towards her.
00:51:37Got it?
00:51:38Mr. Shepherd, what do you see in that woman?
00:51:42Miss Duke is a perfect match for you.
00:51:45She's from a good family.
00:51:47Beautiful.
00:51:48And successful.
00:51:49What more could you ask for?
00:51:51That's a good question.
00:51:53Not much actually.
00:51:55Honesty.
00:51:57That's what I want.
00:52:00And love.
00:52:01Things that clearly Chloe has no idea.
00:52:05I said I was sorry.
00:52:07What more do you want?
00:52:09I've watched Chloe grow up.
00:52:11She's like a daughter to me.
00:52:14I won't allow her to be spoken to like that.
00:52:20Anyway.
00:52:22One more chance, Brian.
00:52:24Let's forget all this nonsense.
00:52:27Do it, Mr. Shepherd.
00:52:29Propose.
00:52:30Right here.
00:52:31Right now.
00:52:33Brian?
00:52:36Is this how the Duke family handles business deals?
00:52:40By forcing a ring on someone?
00:52:43Do it.
00:52:44Or you can kiss goodbye all future investments with the Duke family.
00:52:53Don't you dare.
00:52:55You humiliate yourself.
00:52:57How dare you?
00:52:58Do you really like this nobody from nowhere?
00:53:01From nowhere?
00:53:02Yes.
00:53:03Oh my god.
00:53:04But I can't imagine someone like her interesting in me.
00:53:12The truth is, I wouldn't be here where I am today without her.
00:53:18Why would you choose someone like her?
00:53:21Exactly.
00:53:22This woman is trouble.
00:53:23She doesn't belong here.
00:53:24Throw her out!
00:53:25You do realize that there is no investment meeting without me?
00:53:31Interesting turn of events.
00:53:33Perhaps it's time we shed some light on your mysterious past.
00:53:37Do you actually think that just because you have the name Laura, that you're the missing heiress Laura Lewis?
00:53:47You know what? Maybe you're right, Chloe.
00:53:50Ridiculous.
00:53:51Is that what you've been telling everyone?
00:53:53I'm sure that the Duke family still values cooperation, but wow. Did I underestimate your foolishness, Chloe?
00:54:04You have no right to talk to Miss Duke like that.
00:54:07That's enough. You don't get to talk here.
00:54:10You got mad, Shepard. You dare to go against Miss Duke.
00:54:13And the same applies to everyone else here. Anyone who insults Laura.
00:54:18leaves with a black eye.
00:54:20She's willing to offend the chick for her.
00:54:22What kind of charm does she have?
00:54:24I want to be careful, Brian.
00:54:26Don't forget that this entire hotel chain is owned by the Lewis Group.
00:54:30Are you willing to get blacklisted for this public tantrum?
00:54:33The Lewis Group isn't blacklisting anyone, especially not Shepard Group.
00:54:43Lewis Group RS?
00:54:44You?
00:54:46Don't make me laugh.
00:54:48Security!
00:54:49Remove these two impostors from the premises.
00:54:52Wait, Uncle Jones.
00:54:54Give Brian another chance.
00:54:56Choose, Brian.
00:54:58Me and the future you deserve, or this...
00:55:01Fraught.
00:55:03Chloe.
00:55:05I have everything I ever wanted.
00:55:08Right here.
00:55:10And I wouldn't trade all the power to Duke's home, Maplewood.
00:55:12Fine.
00:55:20Short the stock of the Shepard Group.
00:55:21What?
00:55:24You forced my hand, Brian.
00:55:27Now Shepard Group is ruined.
00:55:29The Duke family, they can't be serious.
00:55:31Shepard Group is doomed.
00:55:33Brian, you don't have to do this for me.
00:55:36Laura, now we're looking for...
00:55:40Protecting me.
00:55:42Now it's my turn to protect you.
00:55:45Listen carefully.
00:55:46I need you to protect the Shepard Group stock at all costs.
00:55:59Don't let it drop even one cent.
00:56:03Do you understand?
00:56:05Wow.
00:56:07Award-winning performance, Laura.
00:56:09But you can't possibly control the stock market.
00:56:12Want to put your money where your mouth is, Chloe?
00:56:16If the Shepard stock holds for the next five minutes,
00:56:24You owe me a public apology.
00:56:33Deal.
00:56:38Well, looks like your five minutes is up.
00:56:43Let's see how the Shepard stock is doing.
00:56:45What the?
00:56:46The Shepard Group stock prices?
00:56:47It's going up.
00:56:48This can't be happening.
00:56:49It must be a coincidence.
00:56:51Why didn't you short the stock like I asked?
00:56:54There was a huge investment.
00:56:55We couldn't compete.
00:56:56Shepard's stock price is being heavily supported.
00:56:59How did you do this?
00:57:01I'm not sure.
00:57:02I'm not sure.
00:57:03I'm not sure.
00:57:04I'm not sure.
00:57:05I'm not sure.
00:57:06I'm not sure.
00:57:07I'm not sure.
00:57:08I'm not sure.
00:57:09I'm not sure.
00:57:10I'm not sure.
00:57:11I'm not sure.
00:57:12I'm not sure.
00:57:13I'm not sure.
00:57:14Why did you do this?
00:57:16Like I said, Chloe,
00:57:19I'm Laura Lewis.
00:57:22No, you're not.
00:57:23You're just some cleaner.
00:57:24You don't have access to billions.
00:57:26Well,
00:57:28I think it's time for my apology.
00:57:35No.
00:57:37I think it's time for my apology.
00:57:39There is no way I'm apologizing to you.
00:57:41If things were the other way, would you be so quick to forgive me, Chloe?
00:57:46The truth is everyone here has seen you be a bully and a coward and now a sore loser.
00:57:58This is so humiliating for her.
00:58:02How did she manage that?
00:58:04Maybe she really is a Lewis.
00:58:07Apologize to Miss Lewis.
00:58:09Shut up.
00:58:10Don't you dare talk about Miss Duke like that.
00:58:13Don't forget, the Duke family owned half of Maplewood.
00:58:17You know what's up, Miss?
00:58:18Let's get out of here.
00:58:20Hold on.
00:58:22This is where I belong.
00:58:25And that is my chair.
00:58:29You can't go there.
00:58:30That is the VIP section.
00:58:33Only those invited by the Lewis Group vice presidents get to sit there.
00:58:37Like I said, Chloe,
00:58:39that's my seat.
00:58:40That's my seat.
00:58:47Had a rumor floating around a few days ago.
00:58:50Seems Miss Lewis caused quite a scene at a signing ceremony between her ex and Mr. Shepherd, wasn't it?
00:58:59Are you planning another outburst, Laura?
00:59:01Is this how you charm all your men?
00:59:03Shall we?
00:59:05My pleasure.
00:59:07What are you doing?
00:59:09Let go.
00:59:10It doesn't matter what happens.
00:59:12I choose to stay by Laura's side.
00:59:15Let's go.
00:59:17Don't be absurd.
00:59:18That seat is reserved for a very important guest.
00:59:22Someone so esteemed, even the vice presidents have to bow low.
00:59:28And...
00:59:30How exactly, Mr. Jones?
00:59:33Are you so sure that I'm not that esteemed guest?
00:59:38Wait, that's Peter Young.
00:59:40Director of Business Affairs at Lewis Group.
00:59:45Ask Peter Young.
00:59:47He decides which...
00:59:49It's Chloe Duke, head of Duke Industries.
00:59:51So glad you could join us.
00:59:53Why is everyone standing around?
00:59:54It's her.
00:59:56She's making a huge scene trying to claim the VIP seat.
00:59:58It's embarrassing.
01:00:00That seat's reserved for the Lewis Group VIP guest.
01:00:03Specifically the family heir.
01:00:05Please get off the stage.
01:00:07Oh yes.
01:00:09Mr. Young?
01:00:11Was it?
01:00:12I think I remember you.
01:00:13You manage my family's investments.
01:00:17Don't pretend like you know what's going on.
01:00:20Please get off the stage.
01:00:22That seat's reserved for the Lewis family heir.
01:00:23I need to make one thing crystal clear.
01:00:31I am the heir of the Lewis family.
01:00:36This is ridiculous.
01:00:37You.
01:00:38The Lewis heir.
01:00:39Don't you know that Miss Lewis is a legend around here?
01:00:42You must be out of your mind trusting a complete stranger like this.
01:00:45Exactly.
01:00:46We ran a background check on her.
01:00:48And turns out she's just some cleaner that used to work for the Harrison Group.
01:00:51Before that I could see her in my family supermarket.
01:00:52See Bryan.
01:00:53This is who you've been chasing after.
01:00:54A liar and a cheat.
01:00:55Security.
01:00:56Get this imposter out of here.
01:00:57Everyone here is a witness.
01:00:58Why would any of you trust Laura?
01:00:59If any of you dares to harm her, you have to go through me first.
01:01:00Bryan, she's just some nobody.
01:01:01She's just someone that the Harrison Group ditched.
01:01:02They didn't even want her.
01:01:03What exactly do you see in her?
01:01:04Escort this imposter out of here.
01:01:05See Bryan.
01:01:06This is who you've been chasing after.
01:01:07A liar and a cheat.
01:01:08Security.
01:01:09Get this imposter out of here.
01:01:10Everyone here is a witness.
01:01:11Why would any of you trust Laura?
01:01:12If any of you dares to harm her.
01:01:15You have to go through me first.
01:01:18Bryan, she's just some nobody.
01:01:21She's just someone that the Harrison Group ditched.
01:01:25They didn't even want her.
01:01:26What exactly do you see in her?
01:01:28Escort this imposter out of here.
01:01:30Now.
01:01:31I'm Peter.
01:01:40Peter, do you have any idea what you're doing?
01:01:43Mr. Yates.
01:01:45I'm so glad you could join us.
01:01:49Miss Lewis, sorry about the delay.
01:01:52And for all the trouble you've had to put up with.
01:01:54It's no trouble, Mr. Yates.
01:01:57Luckily I haven't been alone.
01:01:59I...
01:02:01Miss Lewis, sorry about the delay.
01:02:03And for all the trouble you've had to put up with.
01:02:06It's no trouble, Mr. Yates.
01:02:09Luckily I haven't been alone.
01:02:11I've had the great company of my very loyal friend.
01:02:16Wait a minute.
01:02:18She's Miss Lewis.
01:02:19Is this a joke?
01:02:21Mr. Young, you're new to the Lewis Group.
01:02:24So I can understand why you wouldn't recognize Miss Lewis.
01:02:27But you listened to lies without checking the facts.
01:02:31And almost called the police.
01:02:34Tell me, Mr. Young, who put you up to this?
01:02:39Was it my uncle Ian Lewis?
01:02:42I knew it.
01:02:46Consider this your termination.
01:02:52I get it now.
01:02:53This is all an act.
01:02:54Right?
01:02:55Chloe, what are you doing?
01:02:56We still want to work with the Lewis family.
01:02:57Work with them?
01:02:58Are you blind?
01:02:59This woman is clearly having an affair with this old man.
01:03:05That's enough, young lady.
01:03:07You've got no right to disrespect the head of the Lewis Group.
01:03:12Oh, Chloe.
01:03:13I can't believe we're going through this again.
01:03:15I think you need some professional help.
01:03:19Maybe I could make you an appointment with a great psychiatrist.
01:03:22Chloe, that's enough.
01:03:24It's ridiculous.
01:03:25If you were really the Lewis family heir, you would have the ring.
01:03:28So why don't you show it to everyone?
01:03:30Show us the ring!
01:03:35Why don't you show that to everyone?
01:03:36Show us the ring!
01:03:37Show us the ring!
01:03:38Show us the ring!
01:03:39Show us the ring!
01:03:40Who are you to make demands of me?
01:03:43I don't answer to anyone but myself.
01:03:47I don't need any of your validation.
01:03:53The ring.
01:03:58Vice Presidents.
01:03:59I'm Chloe Duke of the Duke family.
01:04:01This woman is an imposter.
01:04:03Ms. Lewis.
01:04:05We apologize for the delay.
01:04:07How could you just let that con woman sit there?
01:04:09Get her out of here!
01:04:11This seat was always for Ms. Lewis.
01:04:14She's the special guest we've been waiting for.
01:04:17The investment queen.
01:04:19The real heir to Lewis Group.
01:04:22Laura Lewis.
01:04:24She was a divorced host wife.
01:04:26A janitor.
01:04:27How can she?
01:04:28She can't be.
01:04:29It's a lie I'm telling you.
01:04:30It's a lie.
01:04:31Do you think we'd lie?
01:04:33We run Lewis Group.
01:04:35Oh, Chloe.
01:04:37You assaulted me earlier.
01:04:40And you came to this meeting to what?
01:04:43Sabotage it.
01:04:45You'll be hearing from our legal team.
01:04:50Is this true, Ms. Duke?
01:04:52Did you try and sabotage this meeting?
01:04:55Yes.
01:04:56It's all true.
01:04:57She fooled us all.
01:04:59The Duke tricked us to keep Lewis Group out of Maplewood and control everything themselves.
01:05:05I had no idea.
01:05:06But I'm on your side.
01:05:08I can give you everything you need.
01:05:11All the resources in Maplewood.
01:05:12Miss Lewis, how would you like us to deal with this?
01:05:17An eye for an eye.
01:05:21Since Miss Duke here loves ruining things, I'll target her precious Duke Industries.
01:05:33I want them bankrupt in ten minutes.
01:05:36You're bluffing.
01:05:37You're a nobody.
01:05:39You'll always be a nobody.
01:05:40And you can't touch me.
01:05:42Then consider this a test, Chloe.
01:05:47I didn't need my family's support with Shepard and I certainly don't even know.
01:05:52Chloe, you dug your own grave.
01:05:55You think you can destroy Maplewood's leading family with just the Shepard group?
01:05:59Please.
01:06:01Hmm.
01:06:03We'll see.
01:06:09Dad?
01:06:11Slow down.
01:06:12What are you talking about?
01:06:15No.
01:06:17It's impossible.
01:06:19Chloe, what have you done?
01:06:20The news is everywhere.
01:06:21Shepard's launched a full scale of SOB on the stock market.
01:06:22They're hammering our shares.
01:06:23They're hammering our shares.
01:06:24No.
01:06:25No.
01:06:26No.
01:06:27No.
01:06:28No.
01:06:29No.
01:06:30No.
01:06:31No.
01:06:32No.
01:06:33No.
01:06:34No.
01:06:35No.
01:06:36No.
01:06:37No.
01:06:38No.
01:06:39No.
01:06:40No.
01:06:41No.
01:06:42No.
01:06:43No.
01:06:44No.
01:06:45No.
01:06:46No.
01:06:47No.
01:06:48No.
01:06:49No.
01:06:50No.
01:06:51No.
01:06:52No.
01:06:53No.
01:06:54No.
01:06:55No.
01:06:56No.
01:06:57No.
01:06:58No.
01:06:59No.
01:07:00No.
01:07:01No.
01:07:02No.
01:07:03No.
01:07:04No.
01:07:05No.
01:07:06No.
01:07:07No.
01:07:08No.
01:07:09No.
01:07:10No.
01:07:11No.
01:07:12No.
01:07:13No.
01:07:14No.
01:07:15No.
01:07:16is my event.
01:07:18Please leave.
01:07:19Brian, I did this for us.
01:07:21Everything I did, I did for us, Brian.
01:07:26Chloe,
01:07:27you need help.
01:07:29These feelings you have for me,
01:07:31it's not love.
01:07:34It's obsession.
01:07:36Enough.
01:07:37If you don't want to ruin everything completely,
01:07:39you'll come with me right now.
01:07:42Chloe.
01:07:43Right now.
01:07:44What?
01:07:52Laura!
01:07:54This isn't our boss!
01:07:55Get out of me!
01:07:57What is going on here?
01:08:03Did they finally expose Laura's lies?
01:08:05Shepard Group.
01:08:06They're the new partner that's partnering up with
01:08:09Lewis Group from Maplewood.
01:08:11They're handling all future construction projects.
01:08:13That can't be.
01:08:15What about us?
01:08:16That was our project.
01:08:17Remember, Laura teamed up with Brian.
01:08:19Harrison Group is practically out.
01:08:21We have no chance.
01:08:22We can't give up that easily.
01:08:25Remember,
01:08:26Ian Lewis himself appointed me as general manager.
01:08:29In a few days,
01:08:29he promised that he would let us meet with a new heir.
01:08:32You're right.
01:08:32If we can just meet with a new heir,
01:08:34we can bypass the Shepards and meet directly with the Lewis Group.
01:08:38We just have to play their little game and see who comes out on top.
01:08:43That's right.
01:08:43Vice Presidents, allow me to introduce my associate, Brian Shepard.
01:08:53I'm sure I've met you before.
01:08:55Mr. Shepard, finally a pleasure to meet you.
01:08:57We've looked into your company's financial review.
01:09:02Very impressive.
01:09:05Thank you, bud.
01:09:06A large part of that success is next to Ms. Lewis.
01:09:09No.
01:09:09She practically saved me from disaster.
01:09:13Three times over now.
01:09:14Brian, you can just call me more.
01:09:17Ms. Lewis' recommendation is very telling, Mr. Shepard.
01:09:22Perhaps today clarifies everything.
01:09:24Mr. Shepard,
01:09:25this opportunity is gone.
01:09:28Seas it.
01:09:30A woman like Laura
01:09:31is not easy to find.
01:09:33Thank you for your kind words, Mr. Vice President.
01:09:35Did Laura send you to kill me?
01:09:46Laura?
01:09:47Hardly.
01:09:48I'm Ian Lewis,
01:09:50CEO and rightful heir of the Lewis Group.
01:09:55So you're Laura's uncle?
01:09:57In the flesh.
01:09:59So Laura really is your niece?
01:10:02Yes, little Laura.
01:10:03She just threw away her birthright
01:10:06about two, three years ago.
01:10:08Ran off and married a nobody from Maplewood.
01:10:11I think he was a Harrison.
01:10:13Now Laura's got the VPs
01:10:14and Mr. Yates on her side.
01:10:16Did you hear she's throwing a banquet
01:10:18in a few days to announce her official takeover?
01:10:20And we can't let that happen,
01:10:22can we, my dear?
01:10:24If you're Ian Lewis,
01:10:25wouldn't you have the family ring?
01:10:27Well, my dear,
01:10:28that's where you come in, Miss Duke.
01:10:30We need you to relinquish my ring.
01:10:32What if I, what if I fail?
01:10:36My family is already ruined.
01:10:38Yes, you are in a spot of bother,
01:10:40I must say.
01:10:42But, if successful,
01:10:44I guarantee that you
01:10:45and the Duke family
01:10:46will get back everything you've lost.
01:10:49Laura's got the VPs and Brian on her side.
01:10:52How can I possibly get the ring?
01:10:54There is a way, you know,
01:10:56that we can make Laura
01:10:57relinquish
01:10:59and give up that ring
01:11:00willingly.
01:11:03Laura, my dear, welcome!
01:11:05Uncle Ian,
01:11:07it's so good to see you.
01:11:12Laura!
01:11:13It's so good to see you.
01:11:15And you, it's been
01:11:16too long,
01:11:17two,
01:11:18three years perhaps?
01:11:19How have you been?
01:11:21I've been well,
01:11:22Uncle Ian.
01:11:23Thank you for asking.
01:11:25I see you've been busy
01:11:27keeping Lewis Group afloat.
01:11:29Yes.
01:11:29Kind of been easy.
01:11:30Indeed.
01:11:31Somebody had to.
01:11:32I mean,
01:11:33after you left me
01:11:34with everything to do,
01:11:35without a safe pair of hands,
01:11:37I hate to think
01:11:37what would have happened
01:11:38to the company.
01:11:39Actually,
01:11:41Uncle Ian,
01:11:41from what I've heard,
01:11:44you've lost billions
01:11:45with some
01:11:45questionable
01:11:46investment decisions.
01:11:48Yes.
01:11:49Minor mistakes.
01:11:51Minor.
01:11:51Don't worry,
01:11:52Uncle Ian.
01:11:53I won't hold it against you.
01:11:55Oh,
01:11:55good.
01:11:57Well,
01:11:57cheers to you
01:11:58coming back here
01:11:59and
01:12:00the Lewis Group.
01:12:03Oh!
01:12:04I'm so sorry,
01:12:06Laura.
01:12:07How clumsy of me.
01:12:08No,
01:12:09no worries,
01:12:10Uncle Ian.
01:12:11I,
01:12:12I'll just go
01:12:13to the restroom
01:12:13and get cleaned up.
01:12:15Of course.
01:12:16Right away,
01:12:17just down to the left.
01:12:24Use it wisely.
01:12:26Oh,
01:12:27I will.
01:12:38I'll do anything.
01:12:47Come to the abandoned warehouse
01:12:50in the eastern suburbs.
01:12:51Now.
01:12:52Don't tell anyone
01:12:53if you want her alive.
01:12:54Well,
01:12:55you certainly do have your ways.
01:12:55Oh,
01:12:56thank goodness you've cleared up.
01:13:03I am sorry.
01:13:04How clumsy.
01:13:04And don't forget your phone.
01:13:05I retrieved it for you.
01:13:07Love you again.
01:13:08Lovely to see you again.
01:13:08Yeah.
01:13:09I guess I'll see you the day after tomorrow
01:13:10at the banquet.
01:13:11At the banquet.
01:13:12At the banquet.
01:13:13I'll see you then.
01:13:14Will do.
01:13:15Looking forward to it.
01:13:16Clara.
01:13:16Clara,
01:13:17Clara.
01:13:29Clara,
01:13:31where are you?
01:13:34Clara.
01:13:36Clara.
01:13:37Clara.
01:13:40Clara.
01:13:41Clara
01:13:43Clara.
01:13:44I'll meet you next week.
01:13:44Clara.
01:13:45BJ,
01:13:46Laura!
01:13:47Laura!
01:13:48Where are you?
01:13:49Laura!
01:13:50Laura, where are you?
01:13:53Oh!
01:13:54I gotcha.
01:13:59You weren't expecting that, were you?
01:14:03Laura, where are you, Laura?
01:14:14You shut your mouth.
01:14:17Chloe, what have you done?
01:14:20You out of your mind?
01:14:21Out of my mind!
01:14:22It's insane!
01:14:23Insane?
01:14:24I did this for us, Brian!
01:14:26We were meant to be together.
01:14:29Us?
01:14:30You've gone crazy!
01:14:31And you're out of here!
01:14:32Chloe, kidnapping is a very serious event.
01:14:37They're gonna lock you up for years!
01:14:39You think I care about jail time?
01:14:42All I care about is tearing you to the party!
01:14:45You don't deserve him!
01:14:47What have you done?
01:14:49You've destroyed my life!
01:14:51My company, everything!
01:14:53Now I'm gonna destroy your life!
01:14:56Forgive me!
01:14:57Your family ring now!
01:14:59Give it to me!
01:15:00This is about the ring!
01:15:02Did my Uncle Ian put you up to this?
01:15:05You know, Chloe, trying to kill me, that's foolish.
01:15:12Because who do you think is gonna win?
01:15:14You?
01:15:15That little knife?
01:15:16Or?
01:15:17Me?
01:15:18Something a little bit more persuasive.
01:15:20Freeze!
01:15:21Don't move anyone!
01:15:22Don't move!
01:15:23You're about to be arrested for kidnapping!
01:15:25Miss Lewis, having fun without me?
01:15:26I'm hurt!
01:15:27Are you hurt?
01:15:28No, I'm okay!
01:15:29Tell me, Chloe!
01:15:30Who put you up to this, Chloe?
01:15:31Why should I tell you?
01:15:32I'm okay.
01:15:33Tell me, Chloe.
01:15:50Who put you up to this, Chloe?
01:15:55Who put you up to this, Chloe?
01:15:58Why should I tell you?
01:16:00You're going to kill me anyway.
01:16:02Chloe, I don't have a problem with you.
01:16:05But if you don't talk,
01:16:07your beloved Duke Industries might run into some.
01:16:12Well, I'm recording everything, Miss Lewis.
01:16:15So the choice is yours, Chloe.
01:16:17Talk, or face the consequences.
01:16:21Fine.
01:16:22It was Ian Lewis.
01:16:23He said he'd help Duke Industries
01:16:25if I kept you away from the bank room today.
01:16:29Did you get all of that, Mr. Yates?
01:16:31I'm recording everything, Miss Lewis.
01:16:36Oh, every word, Miss Lewis.
01:16:38Are you ready to play a game, Brian?
01:16:52This is crazy.
01:16:53Are we really sure we can do this?
01:16:54All these big companies here, it's crazy.
01:16:57Absolutely.
01:16:58The Lewis Group is under new leadership.
01:17:00We can talk to the heiress herself.
01:17:02Exactly.
01:17:03We just need to make sure we make a good impression on the new heir.
01:17:07There's Ian Lewis now.
01:17:09You can introduce us.
01:17:10Let's go.
01:17:10Yeah.
01:17:10Hello, Ian Lewis.
01:17:14I'm Amber Smith.
01:17:15We spoke on the phone the other day.
01:17:17This is Ben Harrison from Harrison Group.
01:17:19How do you do?
01:17:20We're the company that...
01:17:21Yes, I know who you are.
01:17:23Miss Smith, you're the one who exposed Laura's little drama.
01:17:26Now, look, I'm not here for idle chatter.
01:17:28Good evening, ladies and gentlemen.
01:17:34Could I ask you all to be seated, please?
01:17:39The moment you've all been waiting for.
01:17:42Tonight marks a new chapter in the life of the Lewis Group.
01:17:46A night where the rightful heir takes their place.
01:17:48Would you please join me in welcoming the heir to the Lewis Group, Miss Laura Lewis.
01:17:55Look, everybody, attention.
01:17:57Attention, please.
01:17:59There's been a recent development of some tragedy.
01:18:05I just got noticed from a phone call a couple of minutes ago that Laura has been in a car accident.
01:18:12And tragically, she hasn't made it.
01:18:15She has not survived.
01:18:18What?
01:18:20Laura Lewis is dead?
01:18:23It doesn't matter now.
01:18:24She's gone.
01:18:25Mr. Lewis, is this new...
01:18:26A tragic turn of events, Mr. Yates.
01:18:29But rest assured, the Lewis Group will continue under my competent leadership.
01:18:35Hold on.
01:18:37Who said that I'm dead?
01:18:40Laura.
01:18:45I don't understand.
01:18:47What's happening?
01:18:49Laura?
01:18:50But weren't you...
01:18:52My apologies for the delay, everyone.
01:18:55There seems to be some misunderstanding.
01:18:58Laura, what are you doing here?
01:19:00You've got to stop this.
01:19:01If you upset the Lewis family anymore, we're all doomed.
01:19:04I'll save this once.
01:19:05Back off.
01:19:06Thank you for coming, everyone.
01:19:13As I'm sure you know, tonight, I officially reclaim my title as the CEO of Lewis Group.
01:19:23Perhaps you could make some room for me, Uncle Ian.
01:19:30Impossible.
01:19:31How are you still alive?
01:19:33Well, clearly I am alive and well, so why don't we get this started?
01:19:37No, you're not the rightful heir.
01:19:40You gave that away when you married Ben Harrison.
01:19:45Uncle Ian, is that seriously your argument that you have that I got married too quickly?
01:19:50Well, you went off to Maplewood three years ago and married a stranger and left me to work tirelessly, keeping the company together.
01:19:58Uncle Ian, retire.
01:20:00Enjoy your retirement.
01:20:03Lewis Group will be perfectly fine without you.
01:20:05No, there can only be one heir, and that's me.
01:20:10And the rightful heir has possession of this.
01:20:14You think a ring makes an heir?
01:20:17You're even more foolish than I could have ever imagined.
01:20:21Give that back to me.
01:20:23This?
01:20:24Yes.
01:20:25You think some shiny gold thing makes you the heir?
01:20:29Give it back.
01:20:31True leadership is about earning the respect.
01:20:35of those around you.
01:20:37Not some stupid ring.
01:20:40Oh, my ring.
01:20:41Oh my god, where is it?
01:20:45My ring.
01:20:47Now, everyone, if I could have your attention.
01:20:50Now, let me show you how a true heir earns a ring like that.
01:20:58Talk.
01:21:00Fucking talk about that.
01:21:01Fine.
01:21:02It was Ian Lewis.
01:21:03He said he helped you in the streets if I kept you away from the bankers today.
01:21:10Oh, quite the spectacle, Mr. Lewis.
01:21:14Security, escort him out.
01:21:17And Ian, don't fall over.
01:21:19It's all lies.
01:21:20It's all lies.
01:21:21It's fakery.
01:21:21It's fake news.
01:21:22The group is clear.
01:21:23Get him out of here.
01:21:24Now.
01:21:28I owe all of you an apology for everything that's happened tonight.
01:21:33It didn't go as smoothly as I had hoped.
01:21:35I've had Mr. Shepard by my side, and he has been a great support.
01:21:44Lewis Group has a lot of exciting plans for Maplewood.
01:21:49I'm proud to announce that we have secured a reliable partner.
01:21:59Shepard Group.
01:22:00What?
01:22:01Laura, hold on.
01:22:02This was never my idea.
01:22:04This was all Kathy and Amber's fault.
01:22:06I don't want a divorce.
01:22:07What?
01:22:08Ben, what are you saying?
01:22:09You came to me first.
01:22:10Classic Ben.
01:22:12Something goes wrong, and you start pointing the fingers at all the women in your life.
01:22:16Just don't shut Harrison Group out.
01:22:19Just give me another chance.
01:22:21How could I shut you out?
01:22:23I'm just a cleaner, remember?
01:22:25I'm just a useless housewife.
01:22:27I don't have that power.
01:22:31What are you talking about?
01:22:32No, come on.
01:22:32No, please, no.
01:22:35Um, Mr. Shepard?
01:22:38Yes, Ms. Lewis?
01:22:38I was wondering if maybe you wanted to grab dinner sometime on me.
01:22:50Ms. Lewis, I would love to.
