00:00:00Welcome aboard flight 233 from Nairobi to Los Angeles.
00:00:07Wi-Fi is now available. We wish you a pleasant dream.
00:00:12Lady Thunder, your fiancé graduates from Stanford today.
00:00:15As requested, we've secured him a partner track offer at Whitmore.
00:00:18His celebration dinner is all set. It starts once you land.
00:00:22Noted. Good work, Adam.
00:00:24Also, Sebastian Whitmore from the Whitmore Group has been quietly courting us for investment.
00:00:29Send me the deck.
00:00:32Sebastian Whitmore, founder of Whitmore AI Technology.
00:00:36Heir to the Whitmore Group, ranked the second richest family in North America.
00:00:42Parker, you can tell my grandmother I am not marrying the Caldwell girl.
00:00:46Boss, the Caldwells are our shot at the Thunder Circle.
00:00:49It's a trillion dollar powerhouse. Your grandma sees this as the only golden ticket.
00:00:54We can't afford to say no.
00:00:56So I'm just gonna get auctioned off into a loveless marriage?
00:00:59That's not fair to me or her.
00:01:01The Caldwell family already surpassed us in the market share.
00:01:05Unless you marry someone else.
00:01:07Marry someone else.
00:01:08Marry someone else.
00:01:13Marry someone else.
00:01:15Well...
00:01:16And they'll keep the Pitch-O again.
00:01:18Marry someone else.
00:01:19I believe that button calls me.
00:01:23Ooooo, thanks.
00:01:26матери's analysis.
00:01:29First time flying commercial?
00:01:31Yeah.
00:01:32I'm used to something a bit different.
00:01:35Lady Thunder, the chef's prepared your favourite.
00:01:36Salmon fishing meat in the blueberry tart from Zurich.
00:01:38and a blueberry tart from Zurich.
00:01:41So, uh, what'd you do in Africa?
00:01:44Just some volunteer stuff.
00:01:46Build shelters, take care of kids.
00:01:49Oh, that's... that's actually really cool.
00:01:55She probably didn't make a cent doing that.
00:01:58But the way she talks about it, like it mattered.
00:02:00She must be one of those rare genius people.
00:02:03Maybe.
00:02:05I'm Sebastian, by the way.
00:02:07Eleanor.
00:02:09Well, Eleanor, this might sound absolutely insane, but...
00:02:14Would you mind doing me a favor?
00:02:16What favor?
00:02:17Let me introduce myself properly.
00:02:19I'm the CEO of Whitmore Group, heir to the Whitmore fortune.
00:02:23I own five properties and two private estates.
00:02:26Annual income, one billion dollars.
00:02:29And...
00:02:31I'd like you to be my wife.
00:02:33I'm sorry, what?
00:02:34It's a fake marriage.
00:02:35Just for a year.
00:02:36I just need someone to play my wife.
00:02:37And...
00:02:38You seem...
00:02:39Kind.
00:02:40I see.
00:02:41You're clinically insane.
00:02:42I'm serious, my lord.
00:02:43You can trust me.
00:02:44I don't have any scandals.
00:02:45No addictions.
00:02:46No shady stuff in my past.
00:02:47If you agree, we can sign the papers today.
00:02:49And...
00:02:50I'll throw in a hundred grand a month and a waterfront condo in Midtown.
00:02:54In your name alone.
00:02:55You really picked the wrong girl.
00:02:57Already taken.
00:02:58Already taken.
00:02:59I'm flying back to get married.
00:03:00Oh...
00:03:01Didn't see that coming.
00:03:03I'm sorry.
00:03:05I didn't see that coming.
00:03:07And you won't anymore.
00:03:09You really picked the wrong girl.
00:03:13Already taken.
00:03:17I'm flying back to get married.
00:03:19Oh.
00:03:21Didn't see that coming.
00:03:24I'm sorry.
00:03:30I guess that's it.
00:03:32Just gonna suck it up.
00:03:34You don't seem completely helpless to me.
00:03:38Your AI subsidiary under the Clipwork Room?
00:03:42It's got potential.
00:03:43The Thunder Circle's watching it.
00:03:46But if that's your pitch deck to move them over...
00:03:50You're toast.
00:03:53Oh really?
00:03:54And what would you know about that?
00:03:57You don't know how the business world works, little girl.
00:04:00Oh no, that is very funny.
00:04:02Coming from the guy that just proposed to this little girl.
00:04:05What?
00:04:06Five minutes ago?
00:04:11We might not be getting married.
00:04:13But I can still help you.
00:04:16Excuse me, what are you doing?
00:04:21Excuse me, what are you doing?
00:04:22Fixing your pitch.
00:04:24I'm asking for a hundred million.
00:04:28Cute.
00:04:30Try a hundred billion.
00:04:34Excuse me, what?
00:04:36There.
00:04:37That's better.
00:04:38What the hell did you just do?
00:04:39Did you actually just send that?
00:04:40You learned you're selling yourself.
00:04:43You hijacked my pitch!
00:04:44Do you realize what you just did?
00:04:45He helped you.
00:04:46Helped me?
00:04:47You call that helping?
00:04:49Sir?
00:04:50Ma'am?
00:04:51Is everything alright?
00:04:52We're good.
00:04:54He just landed a hundred billion dollar investment.
00:04:57He's...
00:04:59A bit emotional.
00:05:01Emotional.
00:05:05Well...
00:05:06Congratulations!
00:05:08You are the most important thing.
00:05:10You're the most important thing.
00:05:12Trust me.
00:05:13The Thunder Circle doesn't play small.
00:05:16So...
00:05:17A hundred million?
00:05:18That's an insult.
00:05:19A hundred billion?
00:05:21That's where the conversation starts.
00:05:24You really gotta think bigger.
00:05:26Could you seriously just say that?
00:05:28You're welcome.
00:05:30Great.
00:05:32You mess with my vile.
00:05:33You publicly humiliate me.
00:05:36Congratulations.
00:05:37You are the most infuriating woman I've ever met.
00:05:42Well, very good thing we're not getting married.
00:05:44Right?
00:05:59Land a guy a billion dollar investment.
00:06:01Doesn't mean something to him.
00:06:04Please.
00:06:06Daniel would never.
00:06:10Five years apart.
00:06:12He's gonna be surprised to see me.
00:06:16Are you sure about this?
00:06:18Africa's far.
00:06:20It's not just a trip.
00:06:23I'm gonna change the world, Dan.
00:06:25You always knew that was the dream.
00:06:27The dream.
00:06:28I was gonna take a break.
00:06:29Yeah.
00:06:31Here.
00:06:34When you get back.
00:06:35I'll get married.
00:06:37When you get back.
00:06:39I'll get married.
00:06:41I'll get married.
00:07:02My boy, look at this!
00:07:05An entire body just for you!
00:07:08Whitmore doesn't do this for just everyone.
00:07:11We've officially made it!
00:07:13And this is just the beginning, Mom.
00:07:16You know my dream is to become someone like Sebastian Whitmore.
00:07:20The CEO.
00:07:22But he's a mystery.
00:07:24No one's ever seen him in public.
00:07:26But I'm assuming I'll see him today.
00:07:34After all these years of my funding, Daniels finally made it.
00:07:38A PhD.
00:07:41Partner at Whitmore Group.
00:07:43It's time to let him know my real identity.
00:07:45And start our sweet life together.
00:07:54Isn't that Eleanor?
00:07:56Isn't she begging for a living abroad?
00:07:59What is she doing here?
00:08:04Daniel.
00:08:06Congratulations.
00:08:09Eleanor?
00:08:10I heard about the offer.
00:08:12I wanted to surprise you.
00:08:15Why are you here?
00:08:17I flew back.
00:08:19You?
00:08:20Let me guess.
00:08:21Let me guess.
00:08:22You heard about the Whitmore offer.
00:08:23His salary.
00:08:25You decided to claw your way back.
00:08:27What?
00:08:28Don't act surprised.
00:08:30You've disappeared for five years.
00:08:33The second he makes partner, you're back with discount flowers and a name that means nothing.
00:08:37You shouldn't have come, Eleanor.
00:08:40This, whatever we were, it's over.
00:08:44What?
00:08:45Let's break fire.
00:08:47But...
00:08:50Why?
00:08:51This is what we've been building for the past five years.
00:08:54You...
00:08:55You said that you loved me.
00:08:57You thought that Daniel could love you.
00:08:59Don't be absurd.
00:09:01My son has a PhD.
00:09:04He just made partner at Whitmore, pulling in 30 million a year.
00:09:08And you?
00:09:10You disappeared to Africa to many children.
00:09:13Do you honestly think you're worthy of him?
00:09:15My mom is right.
00:09:16We just aren't the same anymore.
00:09:19Not the same.
00:09:21Look around.
00:09:24This is the party Whitmore threw for me.
00:09:28These people?
00:09:30Legacy investors.
00:09:32Real power.
00:09:35And you think I could introduce them to an embarrassment?
00:09:47I'm an embarrassment.
00:09:48I'm an embarrassment.
00:09:51So that's what this did to you?
00:09:53One offer from the Whitmore group and suddenly you're untouchable.
00:09:57What if I told you the Whitmore group means nothing to me?
00:10:00Arrogant cockroach!
00:10:01How dare you talk about the top firm in this country!
00:10:06You want to know why the Whitmore gave you that offer?
00:10:10You want to know why the Whitmore gave you that offer?
00:10:13Because somebody vouched for you.
00:10:16Somebody that they wouldn't dare ignore.
00:10:20And that somebody was me.
00:10:23I'm sorry.
00:10:24What?
00:10:25Are you sure?
00:10:26Mr. Whitmore, you're not going to believe this.
00:10:28The Thunder Circle just approved us of a direct investment.
00:10:29Wait what?
00:10:30One hundred billion dollars.
00:10:31What?
00:10:32It's Lady Thunder's move.
00:10:33You know the ghost chairwoman who runs the Thunder Circle?
00:10:35This is her first formal return back to the States and we're her first target.
00:10:38We got it.
00:10:39A hundred billion dollars.
00:10:41That's better.
00:10:43She was right.
00:10:45I'm not going to believe this.
00:10:46I'm not going to believe this.
00:10:47The Thunder Circle just approved us of a direct investment.
00:10:49They what?
00:10:50One hundred billion dollars.
00:10:51What?
00:10:52It's Lady Thunder's move.
00:10:53You know the ghost chairwoman who runs the Thunder Circle?
00:10:54This is her first formal return back to the States and we're her first target.
00:10:56You got it.
00:10:57A hundred billion dollars.
00:10:58That's better.
00:10:59She was right.
00:11:00It was a hundred billion.
00:11:02Parker.
00:11:04Find her.
00:11:05Find who?
00:11:06The girl from the Nairobi flight.
00:11:07Eleanor.
00:11:08I don't care what it takes.
00:11:09You find her.
00:11:10Understood.
00:11:11But what do you want with it?
00:11:13I'm going to marry her.
00:11:14Wait.
00:11:15What?
00:11:16I've never seen a challenging girl like her before.
00:11:18I'm going to marry her.
00:11:19I've never seen a challenging girl like her before.
00:11:21I'm going to marry her.
00:11:22Wait.
00:11:23What?
00:11:24I've never seen a challenging girl like her before.
00:11:27I've never seen a challenging girl like her before.
00:11:28She's the one I want.
00:11:36You self-important bitch.
00:11:38Who the hell do you think you are?
00:11:40I get it, Eleanor.
00:11:41You're not upset about the breakup.
00:11:43You're just pissed about all the money you poured into me.
00:11:47Name your number.
00:11:48Once I get my first check from Whitmore, I'll pay you off.
00:11:51And then we're done.
00:11:53Is that what you think?
00:11:55That I'm here chasing the money that I gave you?
00:11:57How about a hundred grand?
00:12:04Two hundred?
00:12:05Daniel.
00:12:06Three.
00:12:07That's my final offer.
00:12:09Three hundred thousand dollars, sweetheart.
00:12:12Do you really think I'm here for the money?
00:12:15Just take the money and go.
00:12:17Daniel should have dropped you ages ago.
00:12:20God knows what you were actually doing overseas.
00:12:24And what do you mean by that?
00:12:26I mean, if you weren't selling yourself,
00:12:30how else could you possibly have afforded to fund Daniel's education?
00:12:34Do you actually expect me to believe you made that sort of money nannying children?
00:12:38What?
00:12:41How dare you?
00:12:42Eleanor.
00:12:43For the sake of our seven years together.
00:12:47Just take the money and leave.
00:12:50Daniel, how can you be so heartless?
00:12:52He's done with you.
00:12:55Get it through your thick head.
00:12:58She's not worth your time.
00:13:01Oh, where's Margaret?
00:13:02Didn't she say she was coming tonight?
00:13:04Yeah.
00:13:05Said she had to handle something first.
00:13:06She'll be here soon.
00:13:08Margaret?
00:13:09Margaret?
00:13:11Margaret.
00:13:13Daughter of James West.
00:13:15Vice Chair of the Whitmore Group.
00:13:17Practically next in line, next to the bathroom.
00:13:20Only someone like her is a match for my son.
00:13:24Rich.
00:13:26Properly pedigreed.
00:13:28And you are just a misstep he never should have taken.
00:13:32Eleanor, Margaret's on her way.
00:13:35You should leave.
00:13:37Trust me.
00:13:38You don't want to be here when she walks in.
00:13:40Because the moment you see her, you'll be ashamed.
00:13:47So that's what this really is about.
00:13:49This isn't about the job.
00:13:51This is about her.
00:13:52This is about Margaret.
00:13:53At least with her, I can build something bigger.
00:13:56Really?
00:13:57Do you really think that you could build something bigger with her than with me?
00:14:01You?
00:14:03Please.
00:14:05So.
00:14:11You actually think you're better than me.
00:14:22Margaret, my dear.
00:14:23You're here.
00:14:24So.
00:14:25Who must be Eleanor?
00:14:29Daniel's ex-girlfriend.
00:14:31I mean, you look exactly how I pictured.
00:14:34Bargain bin dress.
00:14:36Basic face.
00:14:37Still clinging to a man who left you behind like yesterday's trash.
00:14:41But don't mind her.
00:14:43She never deserved to be with Daniel.
00:14:45She's just a pathetic shadow tagging along.
00:14:49So you actually think you can compete with me?
00:14:52I'm Margaret West.
00:14:54Daughter of James West.
00:14:56Vice Chair of the Whitmore Group.
00:14:59And you.
00:15:01You're not worth the dirt under my heel.
00:15:03You're right.
00:15:05Unlike you, I don't need to cling to daddy's title to matter.
00:15:08Excuse me?
00:15:09You really think that you can talk back to me?
00:15:13Get out of here before I have security drag you out like the street rat you are.
00:15:19Exactly.
00:15:20This is a ceremony for elites, not fed group.
00:15:24What the hell is going on?
00:15:25Ah!
00:15:30Margaret!
00:15:32Is everything alright?
00:15:33Why don't you ask her?
00:15:35Daniel dumped her.
00:15:37And now, she's crashing his party.
00:15:40Well, Dr. Piscot was handpicked by Mr. Whitmore himself.
00:15:45So whatever's going on here, you are out of line.
00:15:49Exactly.
00:15:50Take a look around.
00:15:52These aren't just normal guests.
00:15:55This is Whitmore's A-Team.
00:15:57CEOs, professionals, the people who run this city.
00:16:02And you are just a college dropout who thinks raising children in Africa is a career.
00:16:09I was running a charity.
00:16:11A charity!
00:16:13Is that what we're calling unemployment now?
00:16:16Honey, just admit that you were broke and too proud to get a real job.
00:16:19Everyone, we all know why she's here.
00:16:23To chase my son hoping he drags her out of the gutter.
00:16:28So she's a gold digger.
00:16:30How pathetic.
00:16:32Next time you want to play elite, try finishing college first.
00:16:37Hear that?
00:16:39This is reality.
00:16:40My son, a PhD.
00:16:42Future partner.
00:16:43And you are just the mud on his shoes.
00:16:52Now, crawl back into your cave where you came from.
00:16:57Your fairy tale is over.
00:16:59Over.
00:17:09Eleanor.
00:17:11A woman can be broke.
00:17:14Or uneducated.
00:17:16But delusional.
00:17:18Now that's where I draw the line.
00:17:21No matter what you tell yourself, I would never marry you.
00:17:25Funny, Daniel.
00:17:27You know what my biggest mistake was?
00:17:29Believing in you.
00:17:31Seven years.
00:17:33Seven years of working and wearing you money to pay for your tuition and rent.
00:17:37And this is how it ends?
00:17:39Don't twist this.
00:17:41I didn't force you to do any of that.
00:17:44I'm not twisting anything.
00:17:46I bankrolled your PhD.
00:17:49I helped get you into Whitmore.
00:17:51And the second you get upstairs,
00:17:54you drop me.
00:17:56I said I would pay you back.
00:17:58What more do you want?
00:18:00This isn't a transaction.
00:18:02That's not remorse, Daniel.
00:18:04That's cowardice wrapped up in a check.
00:18:09We're done.
00:18:15You ungrateful bitch.
00:18:22That's enough.
00:18:24I'm done with your tantrums.
00:18:29Get the fuck out of my life.
00:18:32Oh God.
00:18:34Look at her.
00:18:36So pathetic.
00:18:38Somebody give me a towel?
00:18:39Her face is starting to make me sick.
00:18:42Lady, that's enough.
00:18:45Dr. Prescott's an asset to the Whitmore group.
00:18:47You?
00:18:48You're humiliating yourself.
00:18:50Get out!
00:18:55We found Eleanor, sir.
00:18:57Where?
00:18:58She's inside Whitmore HQ at the Prescott welcome event.
00:19:00But things are getting ugly.
00:19:02Dr. Prescott.
00:19:04Quick, get to HQ now.
00:19:05Get to HQ now.
00:19:12You see that?
00:19:14Everyone here knows you're humiliating yourself.
00:19:17Just leave, Eleanor.
00:19:19Before this gets worse for you.
00:19:21Worse?
00:19:23What, because I dared to stand where I don't belong?
00:19:27You wanna be a circus act?
00:19:29Fine.
00:19:30But don't expect me to save you when all this blows up in your face.
00:19:34Save me?
00:19:35That's rich.
00:19:37You don't have the right.
00:19:38You never did.
00:19:40Final warning.
00:19:42Walk out on your own.
00:19:44Or I'll security drag you out.
00:19:46Go ahead.
00:19:48Call the guards.
00:19:50But just know that I walked in here because I have every right to be here.
00:19:53And no one has the right to push me out.
00:19:55Not even Sebastian.
00:19:56Faster.
00:19:59I don't care what it takes.
00:20:00Get me to her now.
00:20:01Yes, sir.
00:20:06Eleanor, do you have any idea what the name Sebastian Whitmore means?
00:20:12Wow, you are even more idiotic than I thought.
00:20:15You just insulted the man who built this empire.
00:20:18Even my father wouldn't dare to challenge him, but you?
00:20:22You are so dumb.
00:20:24In your world, Sebastian may be untouchable, but in mine, he's just a man.
00:20:29If I were you, I'd be more worried that you laid a hand on me.
00:20:34Sebastian might not be okay with that.
00:20:37God, you must really have a death wish.
00:20:40Eleanor, forget it.
00:20:41You're upset about the breakup, but now you're spiraling.
00:20:47Disrespecting Mr. Whitmore like that.
00:20:50You know, I was actually going to offer you a job as a janitor here, but after this, I don't even think you're worth that.
00:20:57You were going to recommend me for a janitor position?
00:21:01Do you know how competitive it is to work here?
00:21:03Even our security guards have degrees and you never finished yours.
00:21:10So that's what you think of me?
00:21:13That's reality.
00:21:15And after everything, trust me, Eleanor.
00:21:19Whitmore has no place for you.
00:21:22I don't need your recommendation.
00:21:24And as for whether Whitmore has a place for me or not, why don't you go ask Sebastian Whitmore yourself?
00:21:38Where is she?
00:21:43Where is she?
00:21:44Conference hall.
00:21:45It's tents.
00:21:46From what I heard, she and Daniel Prescott used to be involved.
00:21:49Dumped her.
00:21:50They broke up?
00:21:51Yeah.
00:21:52Well, I guess that saves me the trouble of stealing someone's fiancée.
00:21:57What's your goal here, Eleanor?
00:22:00Seriously, you're trying to crash and burn in public?
00:22:03I'll tell you what it is.
00:22:05She couldn't keep you, so she's trying to drag you down with her.
00:22:09Eww. Pathetic.
00:22:11Ex revenge?
00:22:13Don't worry, Daniel.
00:22:15I've got you.
00:22:19Remember, Margaret's father is Vice Chair.
00:22:22With their support?
00:22:23Whatever stunt you're pulling?
00:22:25Yes.
00:22:26Trust me.
00:22:27When Mr. Whitmore gets here, she'll have maybe five minutes.
00:22:31I can't believe how dumb you are, Eleanor.
00:22:35Honestly, leaving you was the best decision I've ever made.
00:22:39Was it?
00:22:41Because when the trip comes out, you'll realize it was the worst mistake of your life.
00:22:44Yes.
00:22:45Mr. Whitmore is arriving.
00:22:46Mr. Whitmore, he came straight from the airport.
00:22:47He's in the lobby.
00:22:48Wait, he actually came?
00:22:49Oh my God.
00:22:50He's here for Daniel.
00:22:51Do you hear that, everyone?
00:22:52Sebastian Whitmore is here for my son!
00:22:54This is it.
00:22:55No one can touch us now.
00:22:57You hear that, sweetheart?
00:22:58The Whitmore group doesn't take in strays.
00:22:59Get out.
00:23:00As long as you still have legs to walk out on.
00:23:01This is your last time.
00:23:02Mr. Whitmore group doesn't take in strays.
00:23:03He's in the lobby.
00:23:04He's in the lobby.
00:23:05Wait, he actually came?
00:23:06Oh my God.
00:23:07He's here for Daniel.
00:23:08You hear that, everyone?
00:23:09Sebastian Whitmore is here for my son.
00:23:11This is it.
00:23:12No one can touch us now.
00:23:15You hear that, sweetheart?
00:23:16Whitmore group doesn't take in strays.
00:23:19Get out while you still have legs to walk out on.
00:23:26This is your last offer, Eleanor.
00:23:31Half a million dollars.
00:23:34Half a million?
00:23:35For her?
00:23:36It's worth it to keep her from ruining my night.
00:23:41Take the money, Eleanor.
00:23:43Disappear.
00:23:44This is ten times more than you'll ever see.
00:23:48In your life.
00:23:52Be.
00:23:53Smart.
00:23:55Take it.
00:23:57And vanish.
00:24:01You talk a lot about power, Daniel.
00:24:09But when you realize the truth.
00:24:11About who I really am.
00:24:18You'll be begging me to forget this moment ever happened.
00:24:30Shit!
00:24:31What the hell?
00:24:32You dare humiliate me?
00:24:36So you're someone now, huh?
00:24:38Someone who's gonna change things?
00:24:41Then go ahead.
00:24:43Make your little announcement.
00:24:45But if it's bullshit, you're gonna be crawling out of here kissing every single person's shoes.
00:24:51Come on.
00:24:52This low status nobody doesn't even deserve to kiss anyone's heels in here.
00:24:56She's my wife.
00:24:57Is that high status enough for you?
00:24:58Is that high status enough for you?
00:24:59Mr. Rickmore?
00:25:00Mr. Rickmore?
00:25:01Mr. Rickmore?
00:25:02Mr. Rickmore?
00:25:03No.
00:25:04I did this to you?
00:25:05She's my wife.
00:25:11Is that high status enough for you?
00:25:16Mr. Rickmore?
00:25:26I did this to you?
00:25:28It's fine.
00:25:31Just a couple flies buzzing around.
00:25:35I don't recall accepting that little proposal of yours on the plane.
00:25:41I meant what I said.
00:25:43Now let me take out the trash.
00:25:45And who the hell are you storming in here?
00:25:48Did you not hear me the first time?
00:25:50I'm her husband.
00:25:52This woman here, she's my wife.
00:25:57Wait, what?
00:25:58Mr. Whitmore married?
00:25:59But he's never, he's always kept his distance for women.
00:26:02Oh God, I'm dead.
00:26:05I'm so dead.
00:26:10Did you just say she's your wife?
00:26:13Eleanor, you shameless bitch.
00:26:15You strung Daniel along for years.
00:26:17For what?
00:26:18To sleep behind his back and marry someone else?
00:26:20So she was already married.
00:26:22She was never in it for you.
00:26:23She just wanted your money.
00:26:25Was this your plan all along, Eleanor?
00:26:27Playing me while you're sleeping with another man?
00:26:30Don't twist it.
00:26:32You know exactly who betrayed him.
00:26:34She's right.
00:26:35You don't even realize what you've thrown away.
00:26:38Eleanor's a brilliant woman.
00:26:40You were never even close to being worthy of her.
00:26:42So you're saying that my son does not deserve this hooker?
00:26:46He has a PhD.
00:26:48He has a $30 million partner deal.
00:26:51You watch your mouth.
00:26:52Please.
00:26:54Eleanor just crawled back here with nothing and you expect us to believe she has a husband?
00:26:58Let me guess, she hired you, right?
00:27:01Hired the pretty face to play the loving husband and save your pride, right?
00:27:06So would you say she hired an answer?
00:27:09Look at him.
00:27:10Designer suit, sexy look, total escort vibes.
00:27:16Exactly.
00:27:18She probably paid for the full fantasy package.
00:27:22Maybe he throws in a couple of extra services, too.
00:27:26Oh, God.
00:27:27That's Mr. Whitmore.
00:27:28She just called the CEO a gigolo.
00:27:35Dr. Prescott.
00:27:37Oh, Uncle Thomas.
00:27:39He probably works at some private club in Soho.
00:27:42She hired him by the hour.
00:27:44Let's not kid ourselves.
00:27:45Okay.
00:27:46I just need to understand.
00:27:47Relax, Uncle Thomas.
00:27:50This cheap street whore doesn't belong at Whitmore.
00:27:55But since Eleanor brought him, we don't have to worry about it.
00:27:59Really, Eleanor?
00:28:00You think hiring a cowboy makes you powerful?
00:28:03I can get you screaming.
00:28:05It's pathetic.
00:28:06You're pathetic.
00:28:07Exactly.
00:28:08You pathetic social climber.
00:28:10Take your filthy man and get the hell out of here.
00:28:13Wait, wait, please stop, okay?
00:28:14Uncle Thomas, what?
00:28:15I've gotten into you.
00:28:17Why do I feel fussy?
00:28:18It's just a washed-up babysitter and her rented boy toy.
00:28:23Don't worry about it.
00:28:24Look, I will handle it, okay?
00:28:28You want to keep up the fantasy?
00:28:30Good.
00:28:30But before the night ends, both of you will be finished.
00:28:35So you think this is pretend?
00:28:39Still clinging to the drama.
00:28:47No offense, pretty boy, but if she can afford you, so can I.
00:28:52What's the rate?
00:28:53Whatever she's giving you, I'll give you ten times the amount if you strip for the room.
00:28:59Oh, God, no, no.
00:29:05They're dead.
00:29:06They are also dead.
00:29:07Say that again.
00:29:10You heard him.
00:29:11Ten times your rate.
00:29:14Ooh, and let Uncle Thomas have a peek.
00:29:16I don't think he's seen a male stripper before.
00:29:18Ooh, I, no, no, no, I want no part of this.
00:29:21Oh, come on.
00:29:22Don't be shy.
00:29:23Just enjoy the Bachelor show.
00:29:26You're going to give us a twirl, pretty boy?
00:29:29Daniel, Margaret, you have no idea the line you just crossed.
00:29:37Then stop faking.
00:29:39If you're going to play pretend, you can't get mad when people call you out for what you are.
00:29:44All right, cowboy.
00:29:47Final offer.
00:29:50Ten times.
00:29:51Name your price.
00:29:54You watch your mouth.
00:30:05How dare you have my son!
00:30:08Baby, are you okay?
00:30:10I'm going to kill that bastard!
00:30:11Are you insane?
00:30:13Do you have any idea who you just laid your hands on?
00:30:15I don't care who you are.
00:30:17You don't talk about me or my wife like that ever again.
00:30:20You two are dead.
00:30:22You let a cowboy punch a senior candidate,
00:30:26no one will save you now.
00:30:28You just brought war on yourself!
00:30:30You have no idea who her father is!
00:30:34Is that supposed to scare us?
00:30:35Let her talk.
00:30:39I'm interested to see who she thinks I should be afraid of.
00:30:43My father is vice chair of Whitmore Group.
00:30:48Even Sebastian has to respect him.
00:30:51And you two?
00:30:52You just rushed your future down to the toilet.
00:31:00Are you out of your fucking mind?
00:31:11That seat belongs to Sebastian Whitmore.
00:31:13Who do you think you are?
00:31:15No one else dares sit here.
00:31:17I think it kind of suits me.
00:31:20Thomas.
00:31:22You recognize the seat.
00:31:25Would you say I belong here?
00:31:30Yes, sir.
00:31:31Of course you do.
00:31:33Are you out of your mind?
00:31:35That seat belongs to Mr. Whitmore.
00:31:38No one sits there except for him or my father.
00:31:41And you actually dare to park your dumpy ass there?
00:31:46Funny.
00:31:47I'm sitting.
00:31:48And I'm not moving.
00:31:49Got a problem?
00:31:51Hmm.
00:31:52You want to play big shot?
00:31:54Fine.
00:31:56I'll give you one more chance.
00:31:57You can crawl out of that seat like a little dog and beg with Eleanor.
00:32:03Maybe I'll consider not ruining your life.
00:32:08Beg you?
00:32:10Yeah.
00:32:11Get on your knees, bark, and crawl a lap around the room in front of everyone.
00:32:16That's the price you pay when you defy us.
00:32:19You hear that, Eleanor?
00:32:20You and your little boy can bark together.
00:32:25How romantic.
00:32:25You're playing with fire.
00:32:27No, sweetheart.
00:32:29I am the fire.
00:32:32Now, I'll give you three seconds to kneel.
00:32:35Now.
00:32:37One.
00:32:43You...
00:32:43Margaret, please!
00:32:45Please, Margaret, don't!
00:32:47Get off of me!
00:32:48She hit me!
00:32:50You think I'm going to let that slide?
00:32:52Stand.
00:32:53I do not care if she is the Queen of England.
00:32:55I'm hitting that bitch.
00:32:57Margaret, you should apologize.
00:33:01What?
00:33:02You might want to walk this back, Miss West.
00:33:05It's not too late to apologize.
00:33:07Just think about it.
00:33:09Has everyone lost their minds?
00:33:16You want me to apologize to these two?
00:33:18Yes, I'm good.
00:33:20The only reason I call you uncle is because of my father.
00:33:24Now I get humiliated, and you want me to apologize?
00:33:27Yes!
00:33:28I'm doing this to protect you, Margaret.
00:33:30You don't know what you're not to step into.
00:33:32I'm calling my father, and we will see who crawls away when that happens.
00:33:40No, don't call him!
00:33:42Letter.
00:33:43I'd love to see what James West is going to do to me.
00:33:48Dad, I'm down on the meeting floor, and some bitch just hit me.
00:33:52Can you get down here now, please?
00:33:58He's on his way.
00:33:59And when he gets here, you'll both be done.
00:34:05Oh, Eleanor.
00:34:07Mr. West, Margaret's father, second only to Sebastian in this company.
00:34:13He's coming now.
00:34:14This time, you're finished.
00:34:17Not even I can help you.
00:34:18Help them?
00:34:19Please.
00:34:20They did this to themselves.
00:34:22She and her boy toy need to be crushed.
00:34:25Best.
00:34:26Well, Daniel, you don't get to save me.
00:34:28In my world, you're nothing.
00:34:30Still bluffing?
00:34:32I can't wait to see how hard you cry when James West walks in the room.
00:34:41Who the hell is hitting my daughter in my building?
00:34:44Dad, thank God you're here.
00:34:58This was supposed to be a welcome event for Dr. Prescott.
00:35:01What the hell's going on?
00:35:02It's not my fault.
00:35:04This woman is causing a scene.
00:35:06Look, she even slapped me.
00:35:08That's insane.
00:35:10Who here had the nerve to lay a hand on my daughter?
00:35:14You tell them who I am?
00:35:15Of course I did.
00:35:16They didn't care.
00:35:18And even worse, her cowboy husband marched right in here and sat in Mr. Whitmore's seat.
00:35:23It's true, Mr. Vice Chair.
00:35:25That woman and her man, completely out of line.
00:35:28Mr. West, actually, there's something you should know.
00:35:31Shut up, you fool!
00:35:34You allowed someone to lay their hands on my daughter here in my building?
00:35:38Mr. West, you understand?
00:35:39That man is Mr. Whitmore.
00:35:41You dare bring up Mr. Whitmore?
00:35:45Dr. Prescott was hired by him.
00:35:47And this, this is what you allow to happen when Mr. Whitmore is to return?
00:35:52No!
00:35:53I...
00:35:53You.
00:35:57You two.
00:35:59You are the ones that are stirring up all this trouble?
00:36:05That's right.
00:36:06Him.
00:36:07He is Eleanor's fake husband.
00:36:09And she is the one that's been causing all of the problems.
00:36:14Mr. West, my son Daniel, he used to date Eleanor, but that's been done for a long time now.
00:36:22He has nothing to do with what's happened here today.
00:36:25Relax.
00:36:26Dr. Prescott was personally chosen by Mr. Whitmore.
00:36:29He won't be held responsible.
00:36:31Oh, thank you, Mr. West.
00:36:34Hear that?
00:36:35My dad is here.
00:36:37He runs this place right under Sebastian.
00:36:41You are so done.
00:36:43And what happened to all that attitude?
00:36:46Hiding behind a chair now that a real boss is in the room?
00:36:49You really have no idea what's coming.
00:36:53Have you completely lost it?
00:36:55You dragged some random escort in here to play husband.
00:36:59And now he's sitting in Mr. Whitmore's chair, too scared to turn around.
00:37:04Hey.
00:37:06You.
00:37:07Get your ass out of that chair right now before this gets ugly.
00:37:11All right, that's enough.
00:37:15Someone go turn that damn chair around so I can see this clown's face.
00:37:19With pleasure.
00:37:23With pleasure.
00:37:24Daniel, I wouldn't touch that chair if I were you.
00:37:28Because when you do, your little career crumbles.
00:37:30Is that supposed to scare me?
00:37:34No, it's just a fact.
00:37:36He's not someone you're with us.
00:37:39My father is the vice chair of Whitmore.
00:37:42No one outranks him except for Sebastian.
00:37:46And you actually think that we should be afraid of your little cowboy here?
00:37:49You think we're supposed to be scared of a guy you picked up in a nightclub?
00:37:54Please.
00:37:55These two are running this like some sort of drama box show.
00:37:59But everybody knows trash is trash.
00:38:04Maybe all those years of poverty fried your brain, Eleanor.
00:38:08You should know Mr. West is not someone you can afford to offend.
00:38:13Really?
00:38:13And why is that?
00:38:15Because you're a nobody.
00:38:16Mr. West could have you and your husband crippled before lunch.
00:38:21You all love to talk about who's finished.
00:38:24But once that chair turns around, you'll realize it's all you who are done for.
00:38:29You're saying Mr. West is the one in trouble?
00:38:31You have truly lost your fucking mind since our breakup.
00:38:35Well, this...
00:38:36I don't think I've ever had a kid tell me I was done for.
00:38:40You got guts.
00:38:42I'll give you that.
00:38:44But guts aren't going to help you if you piss me off.
00:38:46Now...
00:38:51Let me tell you what happens when your little husband tries to con his way into the Whitmore group.
00:39:02Oh, this is exciting.
00:39:03But do you think breaking their legs is enough?
00:39:06Maybe we should just drop them out of the country for good.
00:39:08Yes.
00:39:09That's what I plan to do.
00:39:12You.
00:39:14Turn that damn chair around right now.
00:39:17Or I'm going to do it myself.
00:39:19No, Mr. West, please!
00:39:20You can't!
00:39:21Why the hell not?
00:39:24They deserve it.
00:39:25The only thing I can't understand is why everyone is acting so scared!
00:39:30You know, they actually told you to apologize.
00:39:33Apologize?
00:39:34To them?
00:39:36Well, since you're all so desperate to meet them...
00:39:39Sebastian, mind saying hello?
00:39:46I suppose we shouldn't keep them waiting.
00:39:49That voice sounds so familiar.
00:39:52No, it can't be!
00:39:53Stop pretending!
00:39:55Turn that chair around!
00:39:56Is that supposed to scare me?
00:40:15I turned the chair, so now what?
00:40:19No.
00:40:20No way.
00:40:22You wanted to see me, James West?
00:40:26Mr. Whitmore!
00:40:29Dad, no need to call Mr. Whitmore.
00:40:32He'll be here any minute.
00:40:34And when he gets here, you two are dead.
00:40:37This is your last chance, Eleanor.
00:40:39Before Mr. Whitmore gets here, beg.
00:40:43You might just walk out of here.
00:40:44I won't beg anyone.
00:40:46But you?
00:40:47You can start practicing your apologies now.
00:40:51No.
00:40:52Don't waste your breath on them.
00:40:54If they want to burn, let them.
00:40:58You see that, Eleanor?
00:40:59The fantasy is dead.
00:41:01Now that my dad's here, he'll...
00:41:03He'll kill you both.
00:41:05So get out of that chair, cowboy,
00:41:06before you lose that precious ass that earns you a life.
00:41:10Shut up!
00:41:11Dad, why are you shaking?
00:41:20Oh, I get it.
00:41:21You're going to kick them out before Sebastian gets here.
00:41:24Perfect.
00:41:25Do it.
00:41:27You two are dead.
00:41:30You see my dad's hands?
00:41:31They're shaking.
00:41:33They only do that when he's really pissed.
00:41:35And the more they shake, the angrier he is.
00:41:38Consider, perhaps, he's not shaking from anger.
00:41:43Please.
00:41:44My father fears no one.
00:41:47And if they're trembling,
00:41:49it's because he's about to fire every last one of you.
00:41:53You still don't see where it sits, do you?
00:41:59Pathetic.
00:42:00You're still bragging even when you're about to be thrown out of here?
00:42:03Keep talking, Eleanor.
00:42:04You're digging your own grave.
00:42:06Dad, are you done digging yet?
00:42:09Can we go ahead and deal with these nobodies?
00:42:12Yes.
00:42:14Yes, I'll deal with them.
00:42:19Boom!
00:42:20I'm dealing with you!
00:42:23Dad!
00:42:33You fool!
00:42:35Do you not know what you've done?
00:42:37Me?
00:42:39They're the ones causing all this trouble!
00:42:42Dad!
00:42:43Shut it!
00:42:45And apologize to them right now!
00:42:48Apologize to them?
00:42:49Mr. West, they assaulted your daughter.
00:42:51Why would we apologize to them?
00:42:55Ah!
00:42:58You...
00:42:59brainless...
00:43:01idiot!
00:43:02Do you not know who that is?
00:43:03You can't do this!
00:43:05I...
00:43:05I just...
00:43:07I'm a PhD!
00:43:08I just made partner at Whitmore!
00:43:10Oh!
00:43:11A PhD!
00:43:13Who made partner?
00:43:14I had no idea!
00:43:15That changes zero!
00:43:23PhD!
00:43:28What are you doing?
00:43:32This is my son's celebration!
00:43:34There's no celebration!
00:43:35There's no celebration!
00:43:37Not without that guy!
00:43:39Because that is Sebastian, the CEO of Whitmore Group.
00:43:44What?
00:43:46Mr. Whitmore!
00:43:48I apologize for my idiot kid.
00:43:53Please, sir, forgive us.
00:43:56Mr. Whitmore, please forgive us!
00:43:59Mr. Whitmore, please forgive us!
00:44:07Is my family Sebastian Whitmore?
00:44:10I don't know!
00:44:11The Lord said she was married to that guy, that man, Sebastian.
00:44:17No!
00:44:18No!
00:44:18No!
00:44:19No!
00:44:20No!
00:44:20He's not Sebastian!
00:44:22That is just some gigolo that she hired!
00:44:24Dad!
00:44:26Dad, this is a trick, right?
00:44:27This is just some joke!
00:44:29You idiot!
00:44:31You have ruined the West name!
00:44:35Now get on your knees and beg him for forgiveness!
00:44:39So that really is Sebastian?
00:44:46Mr. Whitmore, I am so sorry.
00:44:49Please forgive me.
00:44:50I didn't know who you were.
00:44:51Please don't ruin us!
00:44:54You're lucky I don't lay my hands on a woman.
00:44:57But this isn't over.
00:44:59James, is this the heir you've raised?
00:45:02Perhaps you should resign from the board and teach your daughter what respect is.
00:45:05No, sir!
00:45:07I...
00:45:07I am sorry.
00:45:09My daughter is young.
00:45:11She's stupid.
00:45:12And she does not represent me.
00:45:15You're right.
00:45:15She doesn't.
00:45:16But you do.
00:45:18And that's the problem.
00:45:20You're fired.
00:45:21No, please, sir.
00:45:23Don't!
00:45:23So now I get it, Eleanor.
00:45:26That's why you had no fear.
00:45:28Because you had Whitmore beside you the whole time.
00:45:32You must really think you're an untouchable big shot now, huh?
00:45:35No, you've got it wrong.
00:45:41I'm not untouchable because of Sebastian.
00:45:44I'm untouchable because I always was.
00:45:47Seven years, Daniel.
00:45:50And you never once asked who I was.
00:45:52You were so eager to leave.
00:45:55You never stopped to see who you were leaving.
00:45:57I, Dr. Prescott, we fast-tracked you for talent.
00:46:01Yes, your academic record is impressive.
00:46:03But here at Whitmore, we hire for integrity.
00:46:06And you failed that test.
00:46:08Your offer is dead.
00:46:10What?
00:46:11Wait, Mr. Whitmore, please!
00:46:13My son has been working his entire life for this place.
00:46:16I'll draw him out.
00:46:17My decision is final.
00:46:18No amount of begging is going to change it.
00:46:20And you know exactly the reason, Dr. Prescott.
00:46:23I...
00:46:24I...
00:46:25I...
00:46:26Sebastian Whitmore!
00:46:34You have gone too far.
00:46:38Madam Whitmore.
00:46:39Madam Whitmore.
00:46:44Grandma.
00:46:45Don't you dare call me that.
00:46:48The way you have defied this family.
00:46:54You've really outdone yourself this time, Sebastian.
00:46:57Grandma told you to marry Sylvia Caldwell.
00:47:00And what do you do?
00:47:01Huh?
00:47:02Ghost us?
00:47:02And then strut back in here and try to fire people?
00:47:06About the engagement.
00:47:08I'm...
00:47:08You forgot who runs this place.
00:47:10You might have the CEO title, but Grandma.
00:47:13Built the Whitmore group from the ground up.
00:47:16And as far as Dr. Prescott and Mr. West, you don't have the authority to fire them.
00:47:20Did you hear them, Daniel?
00:47:25They were getting fired!
00:47:26But who is that guy?
00:47:28Why is he talking back to Sebastian Whitmore?
00:47:30That's Winston, Sebastian's big brother.
00:47:33Word is, through families at war, Grandma prefers Winston.
00:47:40Don't overstep, Winston.
00:47:41I'm still the acting CEO.
00:47:43Staffing decisions are mine.
00:47:44If Grandma doesn't say otherwise, little brother.
00:47:50Sebastian.
00:47:51James has given decades to this company.
00:47:54And his termination is not happening.
00:47:57Thank you, Madam Whitmore.
00:47:59I appreciate you standing up for me.
00:48:03And as for him, he stays.
00:48:09You do not have the authority to touch him.
00:48:12Grandma, he...
00:48:12Thunder Circle funds all of the top scholars of the world.
00:48:17And their chairwoman, Lady Thunder, arrives tomorrow.
00:48:21We must garner her favor.
00:48:26And Dr. Prescott?
00:48:28He is just the golden boy that she is looking for.
00:48:32So, he stays for Whitmore.
00:48:37You got that?
00:48:38You got that?
00:48:38Yes.
00:48:44Now, let's focus on what matters.
00:48:48Your marriage to Sylvia Caldwell.
00:48:51That marriage will lock us into the Thunder Circle.
00:48:56Grandma, I'm not marrying Sylvia.
00:48:58I'm already...
00:48:59I have made my decision, and it will not change!
00:49:03No wonder he was in such a rush to find someone to marry.
00:49:09He helped me once.
00:49:10I guess now it's my turn to return the favor.
00:49:17Lady Thunder, Whitmore's proposal has been approved.
00:49:21We'll go public at tomorrow's gala.
00:49:23Whitmore, we are our first official U.S. partner.
00:49:24Look, perfect.
00:49:27Make sure it's loud.
00:49:31I'm going to give my husband a surprise.
00:49:36Sebastian, I know you're upset.
00:49:42But your marriage to Sylvia connects us to the Caldwell family.
00:49:46And to the Thunder Circle.
00:49:49That is the future.
00:49:51You'd rather hand over our legacy to someone else?
00:49:55I believe in building things myself, not chasing shortcuts.
00:49:59Shortcuts?
00:50:00It's called strategy.
00:50:03If the road to power is already paved, why waste time laying bricks?
00:50:09Then I disagree, madam.
00:50:12That's not strategy, that's fear.
00:50:14You can't force Sebastian to marry someone else.
00:50:18What the hell is she doing?
00:50:20Oh God, it's her again.
00:50:22Doesn't she ever get tired of humiliating herself?
00:50:25Who let the trash in?
00:50:27Someone needs to take her back out to the curb.
00:50:29Who is she?
00:50:30Madam Whitmore.
00:50:31This is Eleanor, my ex.
00:50:34She stalked me here and then latched onto Sebastian,
00:50:38pretending to be his wife just to oppose your engagement plans.
00:50:41Shut up, Daniel.
00:50:42One more word and I'll shatter your jaw.
00:50:45Do you see that?
00:50:46He's panicking.
00:50:48Madam?
00:50:49Those two are lying to your face.
00:50:53That girl Eleanor, she just latched onto Sebastian to get herself out of trouble.
00:50:58That's just part of their scheme.
00:51:00Sebastian is using this little act to get out of his engagement with Sylvia.
00:51:05Sebastian and I started out as pretenders, but we're not pretending anymore.
00:51:11And what are you playing at?
00:51:15Sebastian Whitmore?
00:51:15Are you kidding me?
00:51:18For real?
00:51:25Oh, you've got to be shitting me.
00:51:32Are you out of your mind?
00:51:34You're doubling down on this circus.
00:51:37It's hilarious that you actually think he is going to marry you.
00:51:42So you're trying to take advantage now.
00:51:45Even if Sebastian's in trouble, there's no way he'd stoop to marrying a lowlife like you.
00:51:50Sebastian, if you say yes to her now, you will lose everything.
00:51:55Do you even know what you're doing?
00:51:57Of course.
00:51:59You proposed to me, I'm just returning the favor.
00:52:02What's the matter, Sebastian?
00:52:03Are you scared?
00:52:04Eleanor, when I proposed to you, I had everything and you turned me down.
00:52:09And now that I'm suddenly in trouble, it's a yes?
00:52:11Exactly.
00:52:12I'm not saying yes to your title and fortune.
00:52:15I'm saying yes to you.
00:52:18Just as you are.
00:52:18Then, Eleanor, I say yes to you.
00:52:29I will marry you.
00:52:33There.
00:52:36There's my wife now.
00:52:38Anyone got a problem with that?
00:52:48Well done, Sebastian.
00:52:53So what?
00:52:54You think by marrying some random girl, you now have a fight against your family?
00:53:00I see now my word means nothing to you anymore.
00:53:03So let me make this clear.
00:53:06I am suspending Sebastian from all duties as CEO of the Whitmore Group.
00:53:14Grandma, you can't be serious.
00:53:19I've already secured an investment from the Thunder Circle.
00:53:21Stop calling me that.
00:53:24The moment you proposed to that woman, you made your choice over the thing.
00:53:29And this is only the beginning.
00:53:32Tomorrow's gala will honor Lady Thunder.
00:53:34And the family received invite-only tickets from Sylvia, who you betrayed.
00:53:38And you will attend, and you will pacify Sylvia, because it's your last chance.
00:53:45And if you fail, you can go pack your things and move out of our family.
00:53:52And I know you've been chasing investments behind our back.
00:54:05But Sylvia has promised me that unless you marry her, you won't see a single cent from the Thunder Circle.
00:54:11That's impossible.
00:54:13I already received a confirmation from the Thunder Circle.
00:54:15The deal's done.
00:54:16Confirmation?
00:54:19Talk is cheap.
00:54:20Unless you have a signed contract, you have nothing.
00:54:25Mr. Whitmore, we haven't received the signed contract yet.
00:54:28See?
00:54:31How I can't wait to see you fall, little brother.
00:54:34And you, girl, think you can just come in here and steal Sylvia's fiancé?
00:54:41You have no idea the hell you've raised.
00:54:43And Dr. Prescott, you'll be joining us tomorrow for the gala.
00:54:51Did you hear that, Daniel?
00:54:53You're invited to a gala that only invites a billionaire.
00:54:57That's right.
00:54:58Your recommendation comes directly from the Thunder Circle.
00:55:02What?
00:55:02Comes from where?
00:55:04Is that true?
00:55:07The Thunder Circle wrote my son a letter?
00:55:10According to Sylvia, Lady Thunder has a soft spot for Polish scholars.
00:55:14Tomorrow's your chance.
00:55:16You play your cards right.
00:55:18She might take a liking to you.
00:55:20Thank you, Mr. Whitmore.
00:55:21I will go.
00:55:24Good.
00:55:25Then it's settled.
00:55:29The Thunder Circle gave their word.
00:55:31They wouldn't back out.
00:55:33Parker, would you please go check on that for me?
00:55:36Yes, sir.
00:55:38Hey.
00:55:40Relax.
00:55:41I said they'd invest in you or they still will.
00:55:44Really?
00:55:45A backroom's nobody like you thinks they could land capital at the Thunder Circle?
00:55:50We'll see who's laughing tomorrow.
00:55:57And just to be clear, the Thunder Circle will never change.
00:56:01You think someone like you matters to the Thunder Circle?
00:56:05You are not invited, but we are.
00:56:09You'll see whether I matter tomorrow.
00:56:11Tomorrow.
00:56:12You stole Sylvia Caldwell's husband.
00:56:15Be lucky if you're still breathing by tomorrow.
00:56:18If you have even a shred of sense left, you'll get on a plane tonight.
00:56:22Stop wasting your last hours chasing your gold digger fantasy.
00:56:27Oh, so I'm the gold digger now?
00:56:30Of course.
00:56:31You're cleaning to Sebastian like he's your lifeline.
00:56:34But not even he can support you now.
00:56:36Forget it, Mom.
00:56:37Talking to her is a waste of time.
00:56:39If I do end up impressing the Thunder Circle tomorrow, maybe I'll toss you a favor.
00:56:46Keep you alive.
00:56:48Let's go.
00:56:49I hope tomorrow, when you all realize I'm the CEO of the Circle, you still feel this high.
00:57:06Hey.
00:57:07Don't listen to them.
00:57:09I'll do whatever it takes to keep you safe tomorrow.
00:57:12Relax, Mr. Whitmore.
00:57:14I got this.
00:57:16Tomorrow at the gala, everything will be handled.
00:57:19Yes, ma'am.
00:57:20I get it.
00:57:21You're the dangerous one.
00:57:23But the Thunder Circle, the Caldwell family, they're a lot to handle.
00:57:29So what?
00:57:30So, tomorrow I'll sign the deal.
00:57:32I'll secure everything.
00:57:34Because keeping you safe is my job now.
00:57:36Wow, what a hero.
00:57:37Now, what happened to that cocky CEO who was begging me to marry him on the plane?
00:57:43Oh, come on.
00:57:44That was so embarrassing.
00:57:46That guy on the plane, he's dead now.
00:57:48He no longer exists, all right?
00:57:51So, my wife, shall we move to the next step?
00:57:55Let's get married.
00:57:56Let's get married.
00:57:56How are the preparations for tomorrow's gala?
00:58:20Everything is ready.
00:58:22The media is locked.
00:58:22And the billion-dollar contract for Whitmore has been finalized.
00:58:26Good.
00:58:28Just remember, this isn't for the Whitmore family.
00:58:30This is for Sebastian.
00:58:32So make sure all the funds fall into his hands only.
00:58:36Understood.
00:58:37Also, two of our allies are requesting a meeting.
00:58:41One is Prince Amir of the Diamond Magnate, and the other is General Varelli.
00:58:45They're outside.
00:58:46Should I let him in?
00:58:47Let him in.
00:58:47Lady Thunder.
00:58:55Lady Thunder.
00:58:57Please.
00:59:00So, how have you been?
00:59:03Your business is good?
00:59:05Yes, Lady Thunder.
00:59:06And thank you.
00:59:08Your support doing my toughest year meant everything.
00:59:12My weapons empire now spans five continents.
00:59:16Impressive.
00:59:18And you, Amir?
00:59:20As usual, I'm doing well.
00:59:22Without your backing, I wouldn't be where I am.
00:59:24Leaving my country with stability.
00:59:27It's good to hear.
00:59:28So, can I expect both of you at the gala tomorrow?
00:59:29Of course.
00:59:32Whatever you want, Lady Thunder.
00:59:34Just say the word.
00:59:36I will back you, no matter what.
00:59:40I'm afraid I can't attend.
00:59:43Things have grown tense between the Cold West and me.
00:59:48What happened?
00:59:49Well, in the past few years, they've been expanding aggressively.
00:59:55Crushing competitors left and right.
00:59:58I thought they were acting with your approval, so I didn't intervene.
01:00:03No, I never authorized any of that.
01:00:09Seems I underestimated how far they'd go.
01:00:12This ends now.
01:00:14They will answer for everything that they've done.
01:00:16Well, then, tomorrow should be entertaining.
01:00:28Let's shake the world together.
01:00:31Cheers.
01:00:44Sebastian.
01:00:46Hey, just checked me in.
01:00:52I wanted to see if you're free tomorrow.
01:00:54What's going on?
01:00:56Well, the gala's tomorrow, and I had a few dresses made for you.
01:01:01A few?
01:01:02You make it sound like you're hosting a fashion week for me.
01:01:06Well, as your husband, it's my job to make sure you're the most stunning woman in the room.
01:01:10Is that so?
01:01:11Well, or is it so you can make your enemies jealous?
01:01:14Who says I can't do both?
01:01:16I got a deal.
01:01:18I'll talk tomorrow.
01:01:19Mr. Whitmore.
01:01:25Lady Thunder is currently in a closed meeting.
01:01:27She won't be seeing anyone today.
01:01:29Mr. Lee, I just need to confirm about the investment.
01:01:33Mr. Whitmore.
01:01:34Lady Thunder has a high level of belief in you.
01:01:36You'll get your answer at the gala.
