00:00:00The employee with the worst performance has to wear a bottom ranker shirt and walk around for everyone to see.
00:00:05This time, the poor performer is my wife's old flame.
00:00:08But she swept my top sales numbers with her old flames.
00:00:19Edward Quinn, you were at the bottom last month.
00:00:22Come on, put this on and start your walk of shit.
00:00:24Ed's been our top sales guy for 8 years.
00:00:2599% of the business are from his deals.
00:00:27How could he be at the bottom?
00:00:28Last month, I saw him close a 5 million deal.
00:00:32Mr. Reid, are you sure about these numbers?
00:00:34Look closely.
00:00:36This data was put together personally by his wife, our CEO.
00:00:40How could there be a mistake?
00:00:41You!
00:00:44I don't believe it.
00:00:46Hey!
00:00:46One word from me, and she switched the numbers.
00:00:49Edward, don't tell me you still don't get it.
00:00:53You'll always be my stand-in.
00:00:55And I am the one she truly wants.
00:00:58Lauren.
00:00:59Honey, Nathan is thin-skinned.
00:01:01The public shaming may cause him mental issues.
00:01:03You heard the champ.
00:01:04So unstoppable, it's okay, huh?
00:01:06As long as you promise me, I'll have your baby.
00:01:12Lauren.
00:01:12The doctor says my mom's getting worse.
00:01:14She's got at most one year left.
00:01:15Her last wish is to see her grandchild.
00:01:17Can we...
00:01:18Edward!
00:01:19How can you be so selfish?
00:01:20My company's on the rise!
00:01:22You want me to have a baby now?
00:01:23What about my company?
00:01:26Lauren Carter.
00:01:27When my mom was sick and wanted a grandchild, you refused no matter what.
00:01:30And now, you have to go this far for Nathan Reed.
00:01:36The numbers are certainly right.
00:01:38Edward, this is a rule we set a long time ago.
00:01:40If you don't put it on, we'll dock your pay and bonus.
00:01:43Money or your pride.
00:01:44You decide.
00:01:44This time, I choose neither.
00:01:53I'm done with you and the company.
00:01:55You dare to quit!
00:01:58I'm done with you and the company.
00:02:01You dare to quit!
00:02:03Miss Carter, Edward has been our top sales champ for eight years.
00:02:06Every big deal we landed was thanks to him.
00:02:08If he leaves, the company's finished.
00:02:10Edward.
00:02:11Miss Carter didn't mean it like that.
00:02:12If there's a problem between you, go home and talk it out.
00:02:15Don't threaten to quit every time.
00:02:16It's hurting your relationship.
00:02:17Have you had enough?
00:02:18You act more mature and rational.
00:02:20Always threatening to quit.
00:02:21What's the point?
00:02:22Is this really necessary?
00:02:24First of all, I didn't threaten to quit every time.
00:02:27This is the only time in eight years at this company.
00:02:29Second, I'm not threatening you.
00:02:31This is my resignation letter.
00:02:32Please approve it, Miss Carter.
00:02:33Edward, don't be impulsive.
00:02:34Yeah, Edward.
00:02:35The company can't lose you.
00:02:36Leonard, Kurt, you don't need to persuade me.
00:02:39This time, I'm serious.
00:02:40Eight years ago, I helped Lauren start his company.
00:02:43For eight years, I worked tirelessly and always top the sales charts.
00:02:47But after all this time, I'm still just a regular employee.
00:02:51Honey, you're my husband.
00:02:53What's mine is yours?
00:02:54Sales manager?
00:02:55Don't take it so seriously.
00:02:56It's just some title.
00:03:00I believed her.
00:03:04For eight years, I kept my head down.
00:03:06She changed managers ten times, and every time, I was lapped out.
00:03:10Three months ago, we celebrated our eighth anniversary together.
00:03:14Honey, if you win top sales again this month, the sales manager position is yours.
00:03:20All right.
00:03:22Because of that promise, for a whole month, I worked day and night chasing sales, drinking
00:03:27with Mr. Foster, ruining my stomach.
00:03:30I got treated like a dog by Mr. Harris.
00:03:31Finally, I crushed the competition, but she gave the position to her old fling, Nathan
00:03:37Reed.
00:03:39Honey, Nathan's got a PhD from Stanford.
00:03:42He's got the education and skills.
00:03:43He's better suited to run the company than you.
00:03:45Why don't you give him the position this time?
00:03:48Forget it.
00:03:49I'm the one who should leave.
00:03:50It's my fault for always insisting on rules and procedures and ended up upsetting everyone.
00:03:55Edward is always the champion and the husband of Miss Carter.
00:03:58I should have given you this respect.
00:04:00I apologize to you.
00:04:01I'm sorry.
00:04:02Nathan, you don't have to.
00:04:04Edward, have you had enough of this?
00:04:05Nathan is the sales manager now.
00:04:07If you keep humiliating him, how is he supposed to manage the team going forward?
00:04:11Lauren Carter, I humiliated him?
00:04:14Can you please focus a little more?
00:04:16Open your eyes and look.
00:04:17Who's the one being humiliated here?
00:04:19Lauren, don't ruin things.
00:04:21Between you and Edward because of me.
00:04:22This is all my fault.
00:04:24Maybe I should leave.
00:04:25Hey, don't.
00:04:28The drama king is on the move again.
00:04:30I really don't get it.
00:04:31Why does Mr. Carter let him be the manager?
00:04:32He has no real skills and is so arrogant.
00:04:34Last time she gave my client to him, the drama king was so arrogant about it.
00:04:38Not only did he piss off clients, he blew the whole deal.
00:04:40Exactly.
00:04:40He messed up one of my deals too.
00:04:42But instead of blaming him, Lauren chewed me out for half an hour.
00:04:45Said my clients were low end.
00:04:47And if I brought in clients like that again, I could just get out.
00:04:50Lauren Carter, I can't believe you would force them to hand over clients to Mason just to protect him.
00:04:56Lauren, I was planning to come back and help you after finishing my PhD.
00:05:00Never expected Edward would get the wrong idea.
00:05:03Don't.
00:05:03Don't worry.
00:05:04I'll make sure you get justice.
00:05:05Come on.
00:05:06Edward, can't you think about the big picture here?
00:05:08Nathan's got a PhD from abroad.
00:05:10He's a top tier talent.
00:05:11Do you know how many companies offered him high pay?
00:05:13He only stayed because of the bond we built back in school.
00:05:16If you drive him away, how's our company supposed to grow?
00:05:18I'm mad at him.
00:05:20He literally faked the numbers and humiliated me.
00:05:22But somehow you're saying I'm the one humiliating him.
00:05:24How did he fake the data?
00:05:25It's clear you're at the bottom.
00:05:27Didn't you have a time when your numbers were worse too?
00:05:29Didn't you also wear that shirt and dress up as a frog?
00:05:31Why are you so embarrassed now?
00:05:33I think you're just seeing that I've grown the company and now you're all bitter about it.
00:05:37You really know how to twist things.
00:05:39If my numbers aren't really at the bottom, I'll admit defeat.
00:05:41No complaints.
00:05:42But if you want me to take the fall for Nathan, no way in hell.
00:05:45Here's the sales report I printed ahead of time.
00:05:52Take a good look.
00:05:53Let's see who the real bottom ranker is.
00:05:55I'm saying how could that would possibly be the worst?
00:06:11Nathan took so many of our clients and he's still dead last.
00:06:13What do you mean?
00:06:14I just want to choose to come out.
00:06:16What?
00:06:17Feeling protected now?
00:06:18How can I tell if these numbers are real or fake?
00:06:26See these?
00:06:27Those contracts.
00:06:28They're already signed.
00:06:29Just not filed yet.
00:06:30If you don't believe it, you can check for yourself.
00:06:32And see if it's true.
00:06:36Are you blind or what?
00:06:37How do you even get the data backwards?
00:06:39Right now, pack your stuff and get out!
00:06:40This card, I did it.
00:06:41I swear I did it.
00:06:42Whatever!
00:06:44You're fired.
00:06:45Get her out of here!
00:06:46It wasn't me.
00:06:47Lauren Carter, come on.
00:06:49Didn't expect you'd toss out your own secretary.
00:06:52Just to cover for Nathan.
00:06:53I guess you've forgotten what got you started in the first place.
00:06:57All right, enough.
00:06:57Back to work.
00:06:58Meeting's over.
00:07:01Hold up.
00:07:03Mr. Reed.
00:07:04You're not even dressed yet.
00:07:05Where are you going?
00:07:09Mr. Reed.
00:07:10Didn't you just say you stick to your principles?
00:07:12Just doing your job?
00:07:13So what now?
00:07:14Your principles don't apply to you?
00:07:16What's wrong, Nathan?
00:07:17It's just putting on an outfit, walking around the office.
00:07:19No big deal.
00:07:21Yeah.
00:07:21We've all done it before.
00:07:23Nathan, you can't be the one to break the rules.
00:07:25How can you win our trust then?
00:07:26Lauren.
00:07:27Hey.
00:07:31Did you make those calls?
00:07:32Did you follow up with the clients?
00:07:34All you do is stir up drama every day.
00:07:35If you have that time, why not close a few more deals?
00:07:38Break it up!
00:07:38Edward.
00:07:42Edward.
00:07:43Why's everyone looking at me?
00:07:45I don't work here anymore.
00:07:47See you around.
00:07:48Guys.
00:07:49Edward.
00:07:54Hey, Edward!
00:07:55Edward.
00:07:56Edward.
00:07:57I'm sorry.
00:07:58Okay, babe.
00:07:59I messed up.
00:08:00You know, Nathan's the manager I brought up myself.
00:08:02If he couldn't do the job, how would the team see me?
00:08:05I was just scared the staff would talk behind my back.
00:08:08I messed up.
00:08:09Just give me one last chance.
00:08:11Don't leave, please.
00:08:14Not necessary.
00:08:15I...
00:08:16Lauren.
00:08:18I just took a hit emotionally.
00:08:19I'm not feeling great.
00:08:20Can you help me out?
00:08:21I got something to handle.
00:08:23Don't make a scene.
00:08:23Give me back my payroll card.
00:08:26Why do you need the card?
00:08:27That's my personal property.
00:08:28Alright, alright.
00:08:29Here, take it.
00:08:30Go home and get some rest.
00:08:31I'll give you a day off.
00:08:31Come to work tomorrow.
00:08:35Lauren Carter.
00:08:36This time, I'm really not giving you another chance.
00:08:41Hello?
00:08:42Edward.
00:08:42It's James.
00:08:43My mom suddenly got really sick.
00:08:44I'm overseas and I can't get back.
00:08:46Could you stay with her out of the hospital?
00:08:47Mr. Foster.
00:08:47Please don't worry.
00:08:48I'll be right there.
00:08:50Lauren Carter.
00:08:50You think sales is just about having a fancy degree?
00:08:53Nathan is too proud to actually serve the client.
00:08:56So he'll never be a good salesperson.
00:08:59Edward.
00:09:00Thank you so much.
00:09:01These past few days, you've been caring for me day and night.
00:09:04Ma'am.
00:09:05Mr. Foster is one of my biggest clients.
00:09:06Taking care of you is really the least I can do.
00:09:08That brat.
00:09:09Hey.
00:09:10Don't worry.
00:09:11When he gets back, I'll make sure he gives you all his future business.
00:09:14Ma'am.
00:09:15Please don't do that.
00:09:16Mr. Foster is a big boss.
00:09:17It's normal for him to be busy.
00:09:18I'm not looking after you.
00:09:20Just for the business.
00:09:21Mom.
00:09:21Mom, are you okay?
00:09:24Edward's been here the whole time.
00:09:26Or if you were any later, you might not have seen me again.
00:09:28Mom.
00:09:29You know, work's been crazy.
00:09:30Besides, Edward is so thoughtful.
00:09:32With him looking after you, I don't have to worry.
00:09:33So is he supposed to owe you, or do you owe him?
00:09:36Why would he take care of me?
00:09:37No one in our family forgets the kindness.
00:09:39Mom.
00:09:40Don't worry.
00:09:41I get it.
00:09:44Edward.
00:09:44From now on, every order from Foster Group is yours.
00:09:48Tomorrow, I'll sign a deal at your company.
00:09:49No need, Mr. Foster.
00:09:50I've already left the company.
00:09:51Weren't you Lauren's husband?
00:09:53How did you end up leaving?
00:09:54There's a lot to that story.
00:09:56But Mr. Foster, I do have a favor to ask of you.
00:09:58Say the word.
00:09:59I'd walk through fire for you, if you needed it.
00:10:01Hey, guys.
00:10:02So sorry I'm late.
00:10:03Well, Mr. Reed.
00:10:05Why did you get such a beautiful and wealthy girlfriend?
00:10:07Yeah, yeah.
00:10:07Why haven't you introduced her yet?
00:10:08Hold on.
00:10:09Three shots is a penalty.
00:10:10All right, all right.
00:10:11Tonight, drinks are on me.
00:10:12Drink up freely.
00:10:13Wow.
00:10:13Wow, awesome.
00:10:14Hey, miss.
00:10:15Why are you so quiet?
00:10:16Lauren, what's up?
00:10:25Are you not feeling well?
00:10:26Nathan, aren't you going to say something?
00:10:28Yeah.
00:10:31Sorry.
00:10:32Something just came up.
00:10:33Let's hang out next time.
00:10:36Nathan, what's going on?
00:10:38Yeah.
00:10:38Why did she just leave all of a sudden?
00:10:40You know, Lauren is a CEO.
00:10:42She's got a lot on her plate.
00:10:43How about this?
00:10:44Tonight, it's on me.
00:10:44Let's just have a good time, okay?
00:10:46Hey, sounds good.
00:10:49Edward, just you wait.
00:10:52Lauren will be mine sooner or later.
00:10:55Edward, stop right there.
00:11:03Hey, boss.
00:11:04Beef noodles, please.
00:11:05Got it.
00:11:06Honey, don't get the wrong idea.
00:11:07I just, I saw you were upset yesterday,
00:11:09and I wanted to make it up to you.
00:11:11I wasn't sure what you'd like,
00:11:12so I asked Nathan to help me pick something else.
00:11:14Look, do you like it?
00:11:20It's the latest collection, over 10,000 each.
00:11:25Are you sure you bought this for me?
00:11:26Of course, I'm your wife.
00:11:28Who else would I buy it for?
00:11:29With my body?
00:11:30You think I can fit into a side's ass?
00:11:31This is for Nathan, isn't it?
00:11:33Honey, let me explain.
00:11:34I did get this for you.
00:11:35I just messed up the size.
00:11:37Don't worry, I'll go exchange it.
00:11:38Hey, your noodles are ready.
00:11:44Why are you eating so little?
00:11:48Boss, I'll have some sliced beef,
00:11:51one spicy chicken,
00:11:52and a bottle of beer.
00:11:53Got it.
00:11:53Take your time.
00:11:59Young man, your wife treats you really well.
00:12:03Alright, what do you want from me?
00:12:05Honey, you've been working too hard lately,
00:12:08so I signed you up for a 10-day Europe tour package,
00:12:10so why don't you let Nathan handle your clients for a while?
00:12:12Don't worry, your commission will stay exactly the same.
00:12:18I promise you won't lose out.
00:12:20Lauren Carter, I always knew every nice thing you did for me,
00:12:23head and angle.
00:12:24Babe, you're basically a senior employee here now.
00:12:28You should give the new folks a chance to learn and grow, right?
00:12:30Come on, I'm your wife.
00:12:31The whole company is yours anyway, right?
00:12:33Alright.
00:12:34Seriously?
00:12:37Of course.
00:12:37Eat up.
00:12:39Once I leave the company...
00:12:40All my clients will go to Nathan Reed.
00:12:44I'm quit.
00:12:46Wait, babe.
00:12:47I never even approved your resignation.
00:12:49You posted online, are you crazy?
00:12:53Hello?
00:12:54Miss Carter, heard Edward just left the company.
00:12:56Once this contract's up, we're not renewing our partnership.
00:12:58No way.
00:12:59It's just a little spat between us.
00:13:01We'll patch things up.
00:13:02Hello?
00:13:03Hello?
00:13:04Hey!
00:13:05Mr. Scott, resign.
00:13:08No way.
00:13:09Even if he leaves the company, he's still my husband.
00:13:20Lauren Carter, let's get a divorce.
00:13:22Yeah, okay.
00:13:23What did you say?
00:13:24Nothing.
00:13:25Just signed us.
00:13:27Hey, Nathan.
00:13:28It's fine.
00:13:29Don't blame yourself.
00:13:30It's all because Edward is throwing a tantrum.
00:13:32You guys go ahead and eat.
00:13:33I'll come find you guys in a bit.
00:13:36Edward.
00:13:37Honey!
00:13:38Hey!
00:13:39You haven't paid for your meal.
00:13:41Oh, sorry about that.
00:13:47Don't worry.
00:13:48Edward Quinn is just in a mood.
00:13:49I'll go home and talk him down.
00:13:50Trust me.
00:13:51There's no way he's actually quitting.
00:13:52Hey.
00:13:53Hey.
00:14:13Babe, I was just talking off the cuff earlier.
00:14:16If you don't want to hand your clients, just say no.
00:14:18Why are you upset?
00:14:19Babe, please just text me back.
00:14:21Don't give me a cold shoulder, okay?
00:14:24Lauren Carter, if you had just come home right now, you would have found me there.
00:14:28However, just to be with Nathan, you gave up your last chance.
00:14:32Edward, you probably don't know, but my relationship with Lauren never actually ended.
00:14:47This is a photo of us on vacation in Maldives.
00:14:50This is a photo of us traveling in Iceland.
00:14:53This is the Patek Philippe Lauren gave me for my birthday last year.
00:14:56Edward Quinn, honestly, I should thank you for working so hard.
00:15:00Otherwise, I wouldn't have what I have today.
00:15:02Oh, right.
00:15:03Tonight, you don't need to wait for her.
00:15:07Lauren, you lost the game, so you have to give Nathan a kiss.
00:15:09Yeah, that's the rule of the drinking game.
00:15:11Lauren, you're not going to embarrass him, right?
00:15:13Kiss him!
00:15:13Kiss him!
00:15:14Kiss him!
00:15:14Kiss him!
00:15:14Kiss him!
00:15:14Kiss him!
00:15:15It's okay if you don't want to.
00:15:18I don't mind looking bad.
00:15:19Just don't give him the wrong idea.
00:15:26Mr. Foster, do me a favor.
00:15:28Hi, there's only 6.98 left on this card.
00:15:31Could you print out the past eight years' bank transactions from this debit card?
00:15:35Sure.
00:15:36I've worked eight years and earned over a million in salaries.
00:15:38All this time, you told me to be frugal.
00:15:40Who knew all that money went into supporting Nathan?
00:15:42Honey, last night, I was drinking with Mr. Scott,
00:15:44and he puked down me by accident.
00:15:46I have to meet a client today.
00:15:47Give me my payroll card.
00:15:47I need to buy a new suit.
00:15:48No need.
00:15:51I've got it ready for you.
00:15:52Thanks, honey.
00:15:55Honey, this suit feels a little tight.
00:15:58I'm sorry, honey.
00:15:59I bought the wrong size.
00:16:01I was so stupid.
00:16:02I actually believed you.
00:16:03Just got the wrong size.
00:16:05Turns out, it was just the trash Nathan Reed didn't want.
00:16:08Lauren Carter, Nathan Reed,
00:16:10since you teamed up to bleed me dry,
00:16:12don't blame me for fighting back.
00:16:13From now on,
00:16:15I'm taking back everything that's mine.
00:16:18Mr. Quinn,
00:16:19with this evidence,
00:16:20we can definitely help you get your money back.
00:16:22Even if you want to file for divorce,
00:16:23you're very likely to win.
00:16:24Thank you, Ms. Ro.
00:16:28Edward,
00:16:29where did that punk Nathan even come from?
00:16:31He's trying to steal your clients,
00:16:32and now he's coming after me.
00:16:33I'm going there with some guys to mess him up.
00:16:35Mr. Harris,
00:16:35don't get worked up.
00:16:36Just agree to it.
00:16:37Are you insane, Edward?
00:16:38These are deals worth tens of millions.
00:16:40Relax.
00:16:40I've got a plan.
00:16:42All right then.
00:16:42I'll trust you on this.
00:16:43After all,
00:16:44you've done me a huge favor before.
00:16:45From now on,
00:16:46all my business goes through you.
00:16:47Deal.
00:16:51I'll leave the rest to you, Ms. Ro.
00:16:52Don't worry.
00:16:54Edward,
00:16:55get to the office.
00:16:56I'm only coming for one thing.
00:16:58It's to resign.
00:16:59That's what I'm calling you for.
00:17:00All right.
00:17:01I'm on my way now.
00:17:02Congratulations to Mr. Reed
00:17:13for landing a huge deal.
00:17:14Total value,
00:17:1540 million.
00:17:16Everyone give it up.
00:17:22To encourage everyone to compete,
00:17:25I've decided
00:17:25to promote Nathan Reed
00:17:27to sales director.
00:17:28Let's welcome him.
00:17:32Miss Carter.
00:17:35Looks like
00:17:35not everyone's throat.
00:17:37Edward,
00:17:37don't think we can't run without you.
00:17:39Whatever you can do,
00:17:40Nathan can do too.
00:17:43Lauren Carter,
00:17:45do you really think Nathan Reed
00:17:46can close those two big deals?
00:17:49Edward,
00:17:50can you stop being so arrogant?
00:17:51You can land a big deal,
00:17:52but why can Nathan do it?
00:17:53Nathan's got a PhD from abroad,
00:17:55a top-tier talent
00:17:55that every major company
00:17:56is fighting over.
00:17:57And you're a loser
00:17:58with a high school diploma.
00:17:59Why do you have to compete with him?
00:18:01Me?
00:18:02I'm a loser?
00:18:03Eight years ago,
00:18:04since you started this company,
00:18:05which big client
00:18:05wasn't brought in by me.
00:18:06And now,
00:18:07you call me useless.
00:18:08I'm not even going to argue with you.
00:18:09Today,
00:18:10just swallow your pride
00:18:11and apologize to Nathan.
00:18:12Maybe then I'll consider
00:18:13letting you stay.
00:18:14Otherwise,
00:18:14pack your stuff and get out.
00:18:16Lauren,
00:18:16don't blame him too much.
00:18:18After all,
00:18:18he's poorly educated
00:18:19and narrow-minded.
00:18:20He mistakes
00:18:21the platform
00:18:21for his own ability.
00:18:22Let's give him one more chance.
00:18:24Did you hear that?
00:18:25You're always targeting Nathan,
00:18:27and he's still speaking up for you.
00:18:28That's the difference
00:18:29between people.
00:18:30He's got a big heart,
00:18:31doesn't hold grudges.
00:18:32Unlike you,
00:18:33so petty and calculating,
00:18:34you're threatening
00:18:34to quit over something minor.
00:18:36If someone like you
00:18:37really left my company,
00:18:38you'd be a nobody.
00:18:39Lauren,
00:18:40don't say that about him.
00:18:41Just give him one more chance, okay?
00:18:42He is your husband,
00:18:43after all.
00:18:43How about this?
00:18:44Let's make him a supervisor.
00:18:46Under my management,
00:18:46I'll teach him properly.
00:18:47Did you hear that?
00:18:48Aren't you going to thank Nathan?
00:18:51Here,
00:18:52the employment contract.
00:18:53Sign it.
00:18:54Take it.
00:18:55From now on,
00:18:56your supervisor reporting to Nathan.
00:18:58All sales commissions
00:18:59will be split nine to one.
00:19:00You get one,
00:19:01he gets nine.
00:19:02That's outrageous.
00:19:03All of the contracts
00:19:03were signed by Edward.
00:19:04What gives Nathan
00:19:0590%?
00:19:07Exactly.
00:19:07What's so special
00:19:08about Nathan anyway?
00:19:09When the contracts signed today,
00:19:10weren't those all Edward's clients?
00:19:11Yeah, that's right.
00:19:12What are you waiting for?
00:19:13Hurry up and sign.
00:19:13Huh?
00:19:17Edward,
00:19:20what the hell is this?
00:19:22If anyone wants to sign
00:19:23a slave contract,
00:19:23be my guest.
00:19:24Today,
00:19:25I'm here to resign.
00:19:26Just sign my resignation already.
00:19:27Stop wasting my time.
00:19:29You're really stubborn
00:19:30as a rock, aren't you?
00:19:31You want to quit?
00:19:32Fine,
00:19:33I'll sign you.
00:19:44Just wait until Nathan
00:19:45takes all your clients away.
00:19:46Let's see what you're made.
00:19:48Mr. Harris,
00:19:49Mr. Foster,
00:19:49glad you could make it.
00:19:50The contracts are all ready.
00:19:51We can renew today.
00:19:52Edward,
00:19:53have you signed your resignation?
00:19:54It's done.
00:19:55Edward has left the company.
00:19:56Now Nathan Reed
00:19:57is in charge of our contracts.
00:19:58Mr. Foster,
00:19:59Mr. Harris,
00:20:00I'm Nathan Reed,
00:20:00graduated from Stanford University
00:20:02with a PhD in economics.
00:20:03If you work with me,
00:20:04I guarantee your company
00:20:05will reach new heights.
00:20:06What the hell is this?
00:20:08Such a big mouth.
00:20:08Oh yeah,
00:20:09sounds like a dog
00:20:10barking for no reason.
00:20:13Miss Carter,
00:20:14we're not here to sign
00:20:14any contracts.
00:20:15We're here to turn...
00:20:16What?
00:20:17Terminate?
00:20:18It's not just us.
00:20:19They're all here too.
00:20:29All 56 company presidents
00:20:31are here to back out.
00:20:40Miss Carter,
00:20:41this is our termination contract.
00:20:42Mr. Foster,
00:20:45weren't we supposed
00:20:45to renew our partnership?
00:20:47Why are you going
00:20:47back on your word now?
00:20:48If Edward was still here,
00:20:49maybe we'd be renewing now.
00:20:50The thing is,
00:20:51he's already left, right?
00:20:52Miss Carter,
00:20:53you've been CEO
00:20:54for a few years now.
00:20:55How could you be so stupid
00:20:56as to cut someone
00:20:57so critical to the business?
00:20:58Mr. Foster,
00:20:58Mr. Harris,
00:20:59Edward and I are married.
00:21:00We're just having a little spat.
00:21:01I'll calm him down.
00:21:02He'd never actually quit.
00:21:04Can't we forget
00:21:04about the termination?
00:21:06But why do I see
00:21:06that you've already
00:21:07signed the resignation papers?
00:21:08That was all just for show.
00:21:10The process isn't even finished yet.
00:21:12It doesn't count.
00:21:12It doesn't count.
00:21:14Edward,
00:21:15explain to them
00:21:16you didn't really mean
00:21:17to quit, right?
00:21:19Fine.
00:21:20I'll say it.
00:21:21I knew it.
00:21:22My husband would never
00:21:22leave me hang.
00:21:23Hey, Edward, you...
00:21:24Hey, Raymond,
00:21:26hold on a second.
00:21:26Let's hear what Edward
00:21:27has to say.
00:21:28Hmm.
00:21:29Thank you, everyone,
00:21:30for coming here
00:21:31to support me today.
00:21:32I want to announce
00:21:32that starting today,
00:21:34I am officially leaving
00:21:36this company.
00:21:38I hereby announce,
00:21:41starting today,
00:21:42I'm leaving
00:21:44this company.
00:21:48Edward,
00:21:49what are you playing at?
00:21:50Lauren Carter,
00:21:51don't you think
00:21:51I'm useless?
00:21:52Don't you think
00:21:53that without this company,
00:21:54I'm nothing?
00:21:55Don't you believe
00:21:55Nathan can take my place?
00:21:57Fine.
00:21:58I'll do exactly
00:21:58what you want.
00:21:59I'm resigning
00:21:59and giving you
00:22:00and Nathan Reed
00:22:01the chance to show
00:22:02what you can do.
00:22:03I was just speaking
00:22:03in anger.
00:22:04Why are you taking
00:22:04this so seriously?
00:22:05But still,
00:22:06Nathan just finished
00:22:07his PhD.
00:22:07He doesn't have
00:22:08much experience.
00:22:09I'll keep his position
00:22:10open for you.
00:22:11Please don't quit,
00:22:12okay?
00:22:12Be firm before being
00:22:13humble.
00:22:14Lauren Carter,
00:22:14you're so ridiculous.
00:22:16Even now,
00:22:16you're still making
00:22:17excuses for him.
00:22:18That's really
00:22:19no hope for you.
00:22:19That's enough,
00:22:20Edward!
00:22:20Who are you
00:22:21to judge Lauren?
00:22:22Don't forget,
00:22:23she's the one
00:22:23who started this company.
00:22:24You only got here
00:22:25a little before me
00:22:25and has a bigger
00:22:26client list than I do.
00:22:27That's why you're on top.
00:22:28If it was a fair competition,
00:22:29you might not be
00:22:30better than me.
00:22:30So you're saying,
00:22:32as long as you get
00:22:32the chance,
00:22:33you could steal my clients?
00:22:34Of course.
00:22:35All right.
00:22:35Here's my entire
00:22:37client list.
00:22:37I'm giving you this shot.
00:22:39You can go talk
00:22:39to them face to face.
00:22:40Let's see if you
00:22:41can win them over.
00:22:43Edward,
00:22:44don't come crying later.
00:22:45Hello, Mr. Harris.
00:22:48My name is Nathan Reed,
00:22:49a PhD in economics
00:22:49from Stanford.
00:22:50If you partner with me,
00:22:51I promise I'll help
00:22:52your company grow bigger.
00:22:55James,
00:22:56didn't we just hear
00:22:56the same pitch somewhere?
00:22:58When we walked in,
00:22:59I think we already
00:23:00heard that line.
00:23:01Oh, Nathan Reed.
00:23:02Now I remember.
00:23:03You're the guy
00:23:04who called yesterday
00:23:05trying to poach me.
00:23:05That clueless rookie, right?
00:23:07Mr. Harris,
00:23:08please show some respect.
00:23:09I'm not a clueless rookie.
00:23:10If you can't even
00:23:10take a little pressure,
00:23:11why are you even in sales?
00:23:12Exactly.
00:23:13Always putting on airs,
00:23:14acting like you own supply.
00:23:15No way he's closing
00:23:16any deals like that.
00:23:18Respect.
00:23:19You haven't earned it.
00:23:20Don't think just because
00:23:21you've got a PhD
00:23:22you're special.
00:23:23My company's full of people
00:23:24like you,
00:23:24and none of them
00:23:25would dare talk back to me.
00:23:27Who do you think you are?
00:23:28Get out!
00:23:29You!
00:23:30Nathan,
00:23:30Mr. Harris had ties
00:23:31to the underworld.
00:23:32He's not easy to win over.
00:23:33How about talking
00:23:33to Mr. Foster instead?
00:23:34He's much more approachable.
00:23:36I'll give it a shot.
00:23:39Mr. Foster,
00:23:40could I have a work with you?
00:23:41No.
00:23:43Not only will I not work with you,
00:23:44but so will every CEO here.
00:23:46Why not?
00:23:48I mean,
00:23:48I have a PhD.
00:23:49My credentials and skills
00:23:50are better than his.
00:23:51How am I not as good as him?
00:23:52Why pick him over me?
00:23:54Why?
00:23:54Because you don't deserve it.
00:23:56Edward and I go way back.
00:23:57Every CEO in this room
00:23:58owes him something.
00:23:59And you think he could sign us
00:24:01just with a couple of lines?
00:24:02That's just wishful thinking.
00:24:03Yeah, we only trust Edward.
00:24:04That's right.
00:24:05If Edward leaves,
00:24:06we're ending our contracts.
00:24:07Mr. Foster,
00:24:08if you're willing to renew with us,
00:24:09I'm willing to...
00:24:10to...
00:24:11knock 30% off!
00:24:15Nathan Reed,
00:24:16are you insane?
00:24:16Our company barely makes
00:24:1720% in profit.
00:24:18He's talking about 30%.
00:24:19That's basically a loss.
00:24:20Nathan,
00:24:2130% will be pleading money.
00:24:23Lauren,
00:24:23don't worry.
00:24:24A temporary loss
00:24:25isn't a problem.
00:24:26We'll make it back.
00:24:27I promise.
00:24:28Lauren,
00:24:28don't stress.
00:24:30My professors always said
00:24:31a price war is the best way
00:24:32to attract customers.
00:24:33Lauren,
00:24:33trust me,
00:24:33I can do this.
00:24:36Edward,
00:24:37talk some sense into Lauren.
00:24:38The company can't handle
00:24:38a loss like this.
00:24:39What will be,
00:24:40will be.
00:24:41If she really is this reckless,
00:24:42nothing I can do.
00:24:43Miss Carter,
00:24:44was that guy serious
00:24:45about the 30% discount?
00:24:47Lauren,
00:24:48stop hesitating.
00:24:49Do you really want to let
00:24:50Edward walk all over me?
00:24:55That's right.
00:24:56What Nathan said
00:24:57is exactly what I mean.
00:24:58Since the profit margin
00:24:59is so high right now,
00:25:00I'm sure everyone's on board,
00:25:00right?
00:25:01Since Lauren has made the call,
00:25:03why would I refuse?
00:25:04Go on,
00:25:05drop a new contract.
00:25:06Yes.
00:25:07Miss Carter,
00:25:07you can't do this.
00:25:08Our cash flow is already tight.
00:25:10This could ruin the company.
00:25:12Leonard,
00:25:13when do sales reps run operations?
00:25:15Just go back to your post.
00:25:15I may not know much
00:25:16about management,
00:25:17but I do know
00:25:18without cash,
00:25:18the company is doomed.
00:25:19Miss Carter,
00:25:20I've worked here for eight years.
00:25:22We don't want to see
00:25:22the company go under.
00:25:23Miss Carter,
00:25:24you can't let Nathan
00:25:25keep messing around anymore.
00:25:26That's right,
00:25:27Miss Carter.
00:25:27Nathan's only been here
00:25:28a few months
00:25:28and already turned our department
00:25:29completely upside down.
00:25:30You even drove that word out.
00:25:31You can't let us go on.
00:25:32You can't keep listening to that.
00:25:33Oh, yeah, shut up.
00:25:34Nathan is a Stanford grad
00:25:35with a PhD.
00:25:35His credentials are better
00:25:36than all of yours.
00:25:37Who are you to question him?
00:25:39Say one more word.
00:25:40I'll fire you all.
00:25:41Mr. Foster,
00:25:42the draft is ready.
00:25:43Since you negotiated this deal,
00:25:45you should sign it.
00:25:45All right, I'll sign it.
00:25:47Edward, see this?
00:25:50I can take your client
00:25:51anytime I want.
00:25:52So what?
00:25:52Well, congrats to you.
00:25:53Go ahead.
00:25:55No problem.
00:25:56And not just one client.
00:25:57I can bring over ten more
00:25:58if I want to
00:25:59without the company.
00:26:00Who are you now?
00:26:01Edward,
00:26:01I'm giving you
00:26:02one last chance.
00:26:03If you come back,
00:26:04I can still make you
00:26:05a sales manager.
00:26:06I don't really want
00:26:07that chance,
00:26:08Miss Carter.
00:26:09You really should
00:26:10take a good look
00:26:10at the contract.
00:26:11What's there to look at?
00:26:12Mr. Foster and I
00:26:13have been partners for years.
00:26:14You think you'd
00:26:14screw me over?
00:26:15Miss Carter,
00:26:15I'm telling you,
00:26:16you really should check it.
00:26:18Fine.
00:26:22What the hell?
00:26:23One hundred million!
00:26:25Leonard.
00:26:26Mr. Foster,
00:26:27didn't we agree that
00:26:28it would be for
00:26:28twenty million?
00:26:29Why are you suddenly
00:26:30renewing for that much?
00:26:31Miss Carter,
00:26:32I remember when
00:26:32we just discussed.
00:26:33Mr. Reed never mentioned
00:26:35any contract limits.
00:26:36Since you're being
00:26:36so generous,
00:26:37of course I'd want
00:26:38as much as possible.
00:26:38That's right.
00:26:39Who told this idiot
00:26:40to sign the contract
00:26:41without even reading it?
00:26:42Our monthly profit
00:26:44is just over
00:26:45ten million,
00:26:45but for this contract
00:26:46we'll lose
00:26:47over thirty million.
00:26:48Our company's finished.
00:26:50Nathan,
00:26:50our company's cash flow
00:26:51really is only
00:26:52a few tens of millions.
00:26:53If we lose
00:26:54thirty million on this,
00:26:55we're really done for.
00:26:56Come on,
00:26:56think of something.
00:26:57I believe there's
00:26:58always a way.
00:26:58Oh, got it, Lauren.
00:27:00All right,
00:27:01I trust you.
00:27:03Mr. Foster,
00:27:04let's redo the contract.
00:27:05This one
00:27:05doesn't count.
00:27:06Why does this contract
00:27:07suddenly not count?
00:27:08Because
00:27:09I'm just a sales manager.
00:27:11I don't have the authority
00:27:12to sign a contract
00:27:13this big.
00:27:14Sales manager, eh?
00:27:17But why does the banner
00:27:18say Mr. Reed
00:27:19sales the route?
00:27:20That's just for show.
00:27:21The process isn't finalized
00:27:22and the appointment
00:27:23hasn't started.
00:27:24I'm still a manager.
00:27:26So you mean
00:27:27you're giving up
00:27:28the director position
00:27:29and admitting
00:27:30Edward is better.
00:27:33So what you're saying is
00:27:34to give up
00:27:35the director position
00:27:36and admit
00:27:37Edward is better.
00:27:39Director Reed,
00:27:40why are you looking at me?
00:27:41Mr. Foster is asking you.
00:27:43Lauren,
00:27:44I'm sorry.
00:27:44I didn't check the contract
00:27:45carefully.
00:27:46I should just leave.
00:27:47Don't stress.
00:27:47You're just lacking experience.
00:27:49Doesn't mean
00:27:50you're worse than him.
00:27:52Edward,
00:27:52can you be a little more generous?
00:27:53Do you have to keep
00:27:54pushing like this?
00:27:55Ms. Carter,
00:27:55so you do know
00:27:56I'm in the right.
00:27:57I thought you'd already
00:27:57let love cloud your judgment.
00:27:59Can't even tell right
00:28:00from wrong anymore.
00:28:01You?
00:28:03Edward,
00:28:04we were married for years.
00:28:06What's the end for you
00:28:06if the company fails?
00:28:07Can we
00:28:08just let this go today?
00:28:09I'll make it
00:28:10right at home,
00:28:11okay?
00:28:11Married?
00:28:12That's already over.
00:28:14Ms. Carter,
00:28:14what's the point
00:28:15of telling me?
00:28:16The person you offended
00:28:17is Mr. Foster.
00:28:18It doesn't matter
00:28:18if I let it go.
00:28:20Are you guys
00:28:20done talking yet?
00:28:22Kid,
00:28:22are you clueless
00:28:23or just pretending?
00:28:24Mr. Foster
00:28:25was giving you
00:28:25a way out
00:28:26and you didn't
00:28:27even get it.
00:28:27Jeez,
00:28:28too much pride.
00:28:29Not enough sense.
00:28:30How can he even
00:28:30work in sales?
00:28:31I have no idea
00:28:31what Ms. Carter
00:28:32sees in him.
00:28:32He's no one
00:28:33near as good as Ed.
00:28:34Forget it.
00:28:34Mr. Harris,
00:28:35let's get out of here.
00:28:36Oh, right.
00:28:37Ms. Carter,
00:28:37don't forget
00:28:38to fulfill the contract.
00:28:39I want that
00:28:39100 million
00:28:39in goods
00:28:40right now.
00:28:42Hey, wait!
00:28:43Nathan was right.
00:28:44He's just a sales manager
00:28:45in our company.
00:28:46He doesn't have
00:28:47the right to sign
00:28:47a 10 million contract.
00:28:48So,
00:28:49this contract
00:28:49is invalid.
00:28:52Ms. Carter,
00:28:53we've worked together
00:28:53for years.
00:28:54I'm not here
00:28:55to take advantage
00:28:55of you.
00:28:56Let's just drop
00:28:57this contract.
00:28:57I just want you
00:28:59to see through this
00:28:59who's actually valuable
00:29:01and who's the black sheep.
00:29:03That's right.
00:29:04This rookie
00:29:04is not even worth
00:29:05an intern in my company.
00:29:07I really don't get
00:29:08why you treat him
00:29:09like a treasure.
00:29:10You too.
00:29:10Don't be so harsh.
00:29:11Nathan does have
00:29:12some skills,
00:29:13just last experience.
00:29:14I'll give him
00:29:14some solid training.
00:29:15Make sure all of you
00:29:16are satisfied with him.
00:29:17No need for that.
00:29:18Our two companies
00:29:19won't be partners anymore.
00:29:20As for terminating,
00:29:21talk to a lawyer about it.
00:29:22We're leaving.
00:29:24Hey!
00:29:25Don't go,
00:29:25Mr. Foster!
00:29:26Can we talk this through?
00:29:27Ms. Carter, hello.
00:29:28I'm the attorney
00:29:28representing Mr. Foster.
00:29:3056 other CEOs
00:29:30in charge of handling
00:29:31your contract terminations.
00:29:32All of them
00:29:32want to terminate?
00:29:33That's the instructions
00:29:34I received, yes.
00:29:35Oh no.
00:29:36It's over.
00:29:37It's all over.
00:29:39Ms. Carter,
00:29:40please finish up
00:29:40my resignation paperwork.
00:29:42I'm in a hurry.
00:29:43Edward,
00:29:44can you help me
00:29:44talk to them?
00:29:45Ask them not
00:29:45to terminate contracts
00:29:46with me.
00:29:49Ms. Carter,
00:29:50I'm just useless.
00:29:51Nathan's the real genius.
00:29:53What's the point
00:29:53of begging me?
00:29:54Go beg your Nathan.
00:29:55Stop right there!
00:29:57Your resignation letter.
00:29:58I'm not approving it.
00:29:59Whatever.
00:30:00Once I submit my resignation,
00:30:01I can leave automatically
00:30:02in a month.
00:30:04Approve it or not,
00:30:05it's your call.
00:30:05Who do you think you are?
00:30:07You really think this company
00:30:08can't run without you?
00:30:09I don't buy it.
00:30:10I've got Nathan here
00:30:11and so many other employees.
00:30:12You think you're better
00:30:13than all of them?
00:30:13That's right.
00:30:14Don't worry, Lauren.
00:30:15I'm a Stanford PhD.
00:30:16Sales is easy for me.
00:30:17I'll definitely get it done.
00:30:18I'll help you
00:30:18land bigger clients
00:30:19in no time.
00:30:20Well then,
00:30:20let me congratulate.
00:30:21Mr. Reed,
00:30:21I miss Carter in advance.
00:30:24What are you waiting for?
00:30:25Get the hell back to work!
00:30:31Hey, Kurt.
00:30:33Now that Edward's gone,
00:30:34what are we even doing here?
00:30:36Maybe,
00:30:37we should just quit too.
00:30:38Yeah,
00:30:39working under that idiot
00:30:40would definitely lead us
00:30:40to trouble.
00:30:41How about we all resign together?
00:30:42I want to work with Edward.
00:30:43Yeah, let's all quit together.
00:30:44Let's all quit together.
00:30:45Guys,
00:30:47calm down.
00:30:47No rush into anything.
00:30:48Edward and Lauren
00:30:49are still married.
00:30:50It's not set in stone.
00:30:51Just wait and see for now.
00:30:52If Edward has any plans
00:30:52coming out,
00:30:53I'm sure he'll reach out to us.
00:30:54Alright?
00:30:57Sorry, Nathan,
00:30:58for putting you through this.
00:30:59Lauren,
00:31:00I'm the one who should apologize.
00:31:01I caused such huge losses.
00:31:03And,
00:31:03Lauren,
00:31:03from now on-
00:31:04No,
00:31:05it's not your fault.
00:31:06It's all on Edward.
00:31:07He insisted on quitting,
00:31:08which left the company
00:31:09without any orders.
00:31:10I honestly have no idea
00:31:11what to do now.
00:31:11Don't worry, Lauren.
00:31:12I've got a plan.
00:31:14Really?
00:31:14Of course.
00:31:15I'm a PhD, remember?
00:31:17Something like this
00:31:17isn't going to stump me.
00:31:18Besides,
00:31:19those 56 CEOs
00:31:20looked pretty intimidating.
00:31:22But honestly,
00:31:22most of them are local guys.
00:31:24So,
00:31:24why don't we just give up
00:31:25on this market
00:31:25and focus on expanding
00:31:26out of state?
00:31:27That market's way bigger
00:31:28than Rivermore's.
00:31:29Will that really work?
00:31:31Edward tried to break
00:31:32into other states before,
00:31:33but he never pulled it off.
00:31:34It doesn't mean I can't.
00:31:35Lauren,
00:31:36with my expertise,
00:31:37I can totally handle this.
00:31:39Yeah.
00:31:40And,
00:31:40I've still got an ace
00:31:41on my sleeve.
00:31:42The Morgans and Northbridge
00:31:43are coming here
00:31:44in a few days
00:31:45to pick a new investment partner.
00:31:46Once we land that investment,
00:31:47we'll be unstoppable.
00:31:49Nice.
00:31:49I'll go back
00:31:50and keep Edward calm.
00:31:51I'll leave the company to you.
00:31:52Okay.
00:31:53Lauren,
00:31:54you're so good to me.
00:31:57Hey,
00:31:58I'm swamped.
00:31:59I'll head out first.
00:32:00Hello?
00:32:05Hello?
00:32:05Hey,
00:32:06old friend.
00:32:07Long time to see.
00:32:08Who's this?
00:32:10Claire Morgan?
00:32:11You managed to perform
00:32:12college entrance exams
00:32:12and only later did I find out
00:32:14you're from the Reaches family,
00:32:15the Morgan family.
00:32:16So billionaire heiress,
00:32:17what brings you to call me suddenly?
00:32:18Obviously,
00:32:19I heard you're getting divorced,
00:32:20so I reached out.
00:32:20I'm heading out for a hotpot
00:32:28with the guys at lunch.
00:32:29Do me a favor.
00:32:30Finish this for me.
00:32:31No way, I...
00:32:31Cut the crap.
00:32:32If I see any leftovers in it,
00:32:34when I get back,
00:32:34from now on,
00:32:35I'm taking all your bratroses.
00:32:44Heard you quit your job.
00:32:45Wanna come work with me?
00:32:46My dad handed me a company to run.
00:32:48Problem is,
00:32:48I have no clue how to manage it.
00:32:50The company of the Reaches family, huh?
00:32:52Guess I'll have to think about it.
00:32:54See you tomorrow.
00:32:55I'll text you the address.
00:32:56All right.
00:32:57See you.
00:32:58Babe,
00:32:58who are you meeting?
00:33:00No one special.
00:33:01Just an old classmate.
00:33:02I packed up your favorite food for you.
00:33:04Come try it.
00:33:04See if you like it.
00:33:08No thanks.
00:33:09I'm not interested in eating
00:33:10his leftovers.
00:33:11Babe, what do you mean?
00:33:14Seriously?
00:33:14Go check Nathan's social feed.
00:33:22Lani,
00:33:22let me explain.
00:33:23I just saw Nathan having a rough day,
00:33:25so I took him out for dinner
00:33:26to comfort him a bit.
00:33:27Isn't it all about
00:33:28keeping top talent in the company?
00:33:30So during the day,
00:33:31the one you thought was wrong
00:33:32was Nathan Reed?
00:33:32Honey,
00:33:33don't be jealous over nothing.
00:33:34There's really nothing going on between us.
00:33:37Hey,
00:33:38are you heading out?
00:33:39Yeah.
00:33:40These past eight years with you,
00:33:42I've never had a full weekend to myself.
00:33:43Every day was just constant tension,
00:33:45meeting Steel's always on.
00:33:46Now that I finally quit,
00:33:48of course I want to relax a little.
00:33:52Getting out to unwind is always good,
00:33:54honey.
00:33:55Time really flies.
00:33:57In the blank of an eye,
00:33:58we've been married eight years.
00:34:02Lauren Carter,
00:34:03just say it straight.
00:34:04Honey,
00:34:05since when do we stop
00:34:06being able to say sweet things
00:34:08to each other?
00:34:10Maybe you should
00:34:11ask yourself that.
00:34:12Honey,
00:34:12I really know I messed up.
00:34:14I was just thinking about the company.
00:34:15Nathan's a Stanford PhD,
00:34:17a rare talent.
00:34:18I just wanted to keep him on the team.
00:34:20All right,
00:34:21honey,
00:34:21don't be mad,
00:34:22okay?
00:34:23If you'd said this before,
00:34:24I definitely would have been upset.
00:34:25But now,
00:34:26I'm not angry anymore.
00:34:27When there's no love left,
00:34:29what's left to be mad about?
00:34:30Really?
00:34:31Then post online right now.
00:34:32Tell everyone,
00:34:33you're not quitting.
00:34:33As long as you help me
00:34:34save the company this time,
00:34:36I'll have a baby with you.
00:34:38Didn't you always say
00:34:39you wanted a kid?
00:34:41Lauren Carter,
00:34:42if you said that a year ago,
00:34:43I would have been really happy
00:34:44and forgiven you.
00:34:46But now,
00:34:47things are different.
00:34:48Nathan,
00:34:49give me a second.
00:34:50I'll be right there.
00:34:52Lauren,
00:34:52my mom's test results just came in.
00:34:54It's stomach cancer.
00:34:55Yeah, I heard, I heard.
00:34:56Lauren,
00:34:57my mom's biggest wish
00:34:58is to hold a grandchild.
00:34:59Can you-
00:34:59Ed, are you done yet?
00:35:00My company's just starting to take off.
00:35:02If your mom wants a child,
00:35:03go find someone else.
00:35:04Why are you coming to me?
00:35:06Lauren,
00:35:07you are my wife.
00:35:08Who else am I supposed to ask?
00:35:09Ask whoever you want.
00:35:09Leave me alone.
00:35:11How is it different now?
00:35:12Because the elderly woman
00:35:13who wanted a grandchild
00:35:15is already gone.
00:35:17Lauren Carter,
00:35:18not everything can be turned
00:35:19into a transaction.
00:35:21What's that supposed to mean?
00:35:22Doesn't mean anything.
00:35:23Lauren Carter,
00:35:24let's get a divorce.
00:35:27What?
00:35:28You want to divorce me?
00:35:30That's right.
00:35:31Divorce.
00:35:32I don't agree.
00:35:32Why do you want to divorce me?
00:35:40You've already signed the divorce papers.
00:35:42Whether you agree or not,
00:35:43after a one month's cooling off period,
00:35:44we'll be officially divorced.
00:35:45I don't believe it.
00:35:47When did I ever sign the divorce papers?
00:35:50Now you remember, right?
00:35:51Back then,
00:35:52you were busy comforting your Nathan.
00:35:54You didn't care about anything else.
00:35:55Oh, Edward,
00:35:56please listen to me.
00:35:57There's really nothing between us.
00:35:59I did everything for the company,
00:36:00nothing else, I swear.
00:36:01That's your company.
00:36:03Nothing to do with me.
00:36:04You can't say that.
00:36:05We're married.
00:36:05What's mine is yours, isn't it?
00:36:07Lauren Carter,
00:36:07you make us sound so nice.
00:36:09Do you remember
00:36:09when we started our business?
00:36:11What did you say to me?
00:36:12Honey,
00:36:13when the company grows,
00:36:14I'll give you half the shares.
00:36:16Lauren,
00:36:17even if you give me nothing,
00:36:18I still help you chase your dreams.
00:36:20It's not that I didn't want to give you,
00:36:21it's bad timing.
00:36:23How about this?
00:36:23I'll give you 5% of the shares, okay?
00:36:25No need.
00:36:31Move.
00:36:31No, I won't.
00:36:32I'm moving out tonight.
00:36:33Edward,
00:36:34are you asking for a divorce
00:36:35because of Nathan?
00:36:36I already explained it to you.
00:36:37He and I are just colleagues,
00:36:38nothing more.
00:36:39I've never done anything to betray you.
00:36:42Really?
00:36:42Then how do you explain
00:36:48these photos of you
00:36:48secretly dating overseas?
00:36:55Lauren Carter,
00:36:55you kept telling me
00:36:56you went abroad for business trips.
00:36:57Looking back now,
00:36:58those were never for business.
00:37:00Just dates with him all alone.
00:37:02Whenever I suggested
00:37:02we take a trip out to the suburbs,
00:37:04you always said it's a waste.
00:37:05But with Nathan Reed,
00:37:06it was always Maldives or Iceland.
00:37:08You know exactly how to be romantic.
00:37:09You just don't want to be romantic with me.
00:37:11Honey,
00:37:11let me explain.
00:37:12I've never been to
00:37:13any of those places with him.
00:37:14He must have photoshopped them.
00:37:15Don't worry.
00:37:16I'll have a serious talk with him.
00:37:18A serious talk?
00:37:19He's stirring up trouble
00:37:20in our marriage.
00:37:20And all you give is a talk?
00:37:23Maybe he just loves me too much.
00:37:24That's why he's acting like this.
00:37:25Trust me,
00:37:26he won't do anything like that again.
00:37:27You mean you won't date anymore?
00:37:29Or he won't send me any more photos?
00:37:30Of course no dates!
00:37:32Honey,
00:37:33there's absolutely nothing between us.
00:37:34You have to believe me.
00:37:35Don't be mad, okay?
00:37:38Don't try that with me.
00:37:39If you say all those photos are fake,
00:37:44then what about this?
00:37:45How do you explain this?
00:37:45What's this?
00:37:46My payroll card
00:37:47and my bank statement.
00:37:48Over the years,
00:37:49with my salary and commissions,
00:37:51combined,
00:37:51it's got to be over a million.
00:37:52The card's always been in your hand.
00:37:53So why is there only $6.59?
00:37:56Because...
00:37:56you spend all that money
00:37:57supporting Nathan Reed.
00:37:59All those luxury goods
00:37:59at couple's hotels,
00:38:01romantic restaurants.
00:38:02You two really went all out!
00:38:03No, honey,
00:38:04you've got it all wrong.
00:38:05I spent the money
00:38:06entertaining clients.
00:38:07It had nothing to do
00:38:08with Nathan at all!
00:38:09Oh yeah?
00:38:10Which client?
00:38:11Tell me,
00:38:11I'll go ask them myself.
00:38:14Which client is it?
00:38:15It's the...
00:38:15What?
00:38:17Can't say it out loud?
00:38:18All the major clients,
00:38:19I brought them in.
00:38:20Still want to lie to me?
00:38:21They...
00:38:22I just made a stupid mistake.
00:38:24But it was just
00:38:25dinner with him.
00:38:25I didn't do anything else,
00:38:26I swear!
00:38:27Babe,
00:38:27I never betrayed our mayor,
00:38:28not once!
00:38:29You didn't betray me?
00:38:30You think I'm an idiot?
00:38:31Oh, those nights
00:38:32at couple's hotels.
00:38:33Were you just sightseeing?
00:38:35Is there really no way
00:38:36to fix this?
00:38:38What if I refuse?
00:38:39Then I'll see you in court.
00:38:41I've already hired a lawyer.
00:38:43Oh, the money you spent
00:38:44on Nathan Reed.
00:38:45I want every cent back.
00:38:46You both better get ready.
00:38:48Otherwise,
00:38:48just wait for the lawsuit.
00:38:52Edward!
00:38:53I made a mistake,
00:38:55every woman might make.
00:38:56Do you really have
00:38:57to divorce me over this?
00:38:58Edward!
00:38:59If you walk out
00:39:00that door today,
00:39:01don't ever come back!
00:39:02You'll regret this!
00:39:03The only thing I regret
00:39:04is not seeing
00:39:06your true intention sooner.
00:39:07Edward Quinn!
00:39:08Don't get ahead of yourself!
00:39:09You really think
00:39:10the company can't run
00:39:11without you?
00:39:12Nathan's already
00:39:12found a solution!
00:39:14You'll never measure up to him
00:39:15in this lifetime!
00:39:16I don't know!
00:39:16I don't know!
00:39:16I don't know!
00:39:16I don't know!
00:39:16I don't know!
00:39:17I don't know!
00:39:17I don't know!
00:39:18I don't know!
00:39:18I don't know!
00:39:19I don't know!
00:39:19I don't know!
00:39:19I don't know!
00:39:19I don't know!
00:39:19Miss Morgan,
00:39:25Mr. Quinn is here.
00:39:27Edward!
00:39:28Long time no see!
00:39:29Long time no see!
00:39:30So what are you...
00:39:31Well,
00:39:32I got kicked out!
00:39:33So I came
00:39:34to see if you
00:39:35would take me in!
00:39:35Well then,
00:39:36I guess I'll just
00:39:36have to grudgingly
00:39:37take you in!
00:39:38Mary!
00:39:38Take Mr. Quinn's
00:39:39things back to my place first!
00:39:40Yes, Miss Morgan!
00:39:42I've never seen her
00:39:43this happy before!
00:39:44Who exactly
00:39:44is this Mr. Quinn?
00:39:46Edward!
00:39:47I'm really happy
00:39:48you're here!
00:39:48You have no idea!
00:39:49My dad handed me
00:39:50a company
00:39:51but have no clue
00:39:51how to run it
00:39:52or how to bring in clients
00:39:53but now,
00:39:54with you here,
00:39:55you can help me out!
00:39:55If you ask!
00:39:56How could I say no?
00:39:57That's awesome!
00:39:58From now on,
00:39:59you're my company's
00:40:00general manager!
00:40:01No, no, no!
00:40:02I'm just a regular salesperson!
00:40:03I can't take on that role!
00:40:04Besides,
00:40:04I'm new here!
00:40:05Jumping straight to the top
00:40:06would be hard
00:40:06for people to accept!
00:40:07Hmm...
00:40:08Well then,
00:40:09how about
00:40:09be the sales director?
00:40:11Annual salary 200k
00:40:12plus a 15% commission!
00:40:13Sounds good!
00:40:14Honey,
00:40:15you're just a regular employee
00:40:16so your salary
00:40:17can't be too high!
00:40:18How about
00:40:18a base salary
00:40:19of $8,000
00:40:20plus a 5%
00:40:21sales commission?
00:40:22Isn't that...
00:40:23a bit much?
00:40:24Not really!
00:40:25That's the going rate
00:40:25for directors these days!
00:40:27Besides,
00:40:27I know
00:40:28your skills
00:40:28are way better
00:40:29than most people out there!
00:40:30So this is what it feels like
00:40:31to have my words recognized!
00:40:33I accept!
00:40:34Really?
00:40:34That's fantastic!
00:40:38Really?
00:40:39That's fantastic!
00:40:43Oh!
00:40:44Alright then,
00:40:45let me show you
00:40:46your place first!
00:40:46Come on!
00:40:47Hey, no rush!
00:40:47Take me to the
00:40:48sales department first!
00:40:48I've heard you
00:40:49a total workaholic!
00:40:50Your reputation
00:40:51really precedes you!
00:40:52Didn't expect
00:40:52Miss Morgan herself
00:40:53to take notice
00:40:54of a regular sales guy!
00:40:55Uh, yeah!
00:40:57Alright then,
00:40:57I'll take you
00:40:58to the company first!
00:40:59Let's go!
00:41:00Come on,
00:41:01let's get moving!
00:41:06This is the
00:41:07sales department!
00:41:08These are your employees?
00:41:10Honestly,
00:41:10my hands are tied!
00:41:11On my first day
00:41:12as manager,
00:41:12the previous sales director
00:41:13demanded a raise
00:41:14to the whole team!
00:41:15I said no,
00:41:15so he quit!
00:41:16And the rest of them
00:41:17don't take me seriously
00:41:18at all!
00:41:19You know,
00:41:20you just don't have
00:41:20the experience
00:41:21and you're too soft!
00:41:22That's why
00:41:22they walk all over you!
00:41:23With them,
00:41:23you can't be too gentle!
00:41:24But,
00:41:25if they all quit together,
00:41:27we will have no clients!
00:41:28That'd be a disaster!
00:41:28Leave the clients
00:41:29to me!
00:41:30What'd you learn?
00:41:31Wait,
00:41:33what?
00:41:34Why's the Wi-Fi down?
00:41:34Who unplugged
00:41:35the network cable?
00:41:36I did!
00:41:37Who the hell are you
00:41:37to pull my cable?
00:41:39I'm the new sales director!
00:41:41Everyone,
00:41:41put your phones down
00:41:42and get in front of me
00:41:43in five seconds!
00:41:44Otherwise,
00:41:44you're all fired!
00:41:47Who the hell are you
00:41:47to fire us all?
00:41:48Three!
00:41:49Miss Morgan,
00:41:49is this what you want too?
00:41:51Two!
00:41:52Miss Morgan,
00:41:52if you dare fire us,
00:41:53I can guarantee
00:41:54you'll never land
00:41:54another client!
00:41:55One!
00:41:56Perfect!
00:41:57You're all fired!
00:41:58Miss Morgan,
00:41:59call HR over here
00:42:00and process their termination!
00:42:02Edward,
00:42:02don't you think
00:42:03this is a bit much?
00:42:04Miss Morgan,
00:42:05is this the director
00:42:05you bored in?
00:42:06Looks like he's nothing
00:42:07but a reckless rookie!
00:42:08Exactly,
00:42:08Miss Morgan,
00:42:09don't say we didn't warn ya,
00:42:10but this kid running
00:42:10thinks the company
00:42:11will be out of business
00:42:12within a month!
00:42:13Relax,
00:42:13I know what I'm doing!
00:42:15You're all fired now!
00:42:16Whether the company
00:42:17goes under
00:42:17is no longer your concern!
00:42:22Miss Morgan,
00:42:22when you kicked me
00:42:23out of the company,
00:42:24you thought you'd bring
00:42:25in some kind of superstar!
00:42:26Didn't expect you
00:42:27to just hire some rookie!
00:42:29Who's he?
00:42:29The former director.
00:42:31Every salesperson here
00:42:32used to work for him.
00:42:33Miss Morgan,
00:42:34don't say I didn't warn you.
00:42:35The Morgan family
00:42:36might be the richest
00:42:37in Northbridge,
00:42:38but you're not
00:42:38the only heir.
00:42:40If,
00:42:41by the end of the month,
00:42:42you can't hit
00:42:42at least a hundred million
00:42:44in sales,
00:42:45your half-brother
00:42:45won't let you off the hook!
00:42:47What does he mean by that?
00:42:49Three months ago,
00:42:50my dad gave me
00:42:51and my brother
00:42:51each our own company.
00:42:52He said,
00:42:53whoever had better numbers
00:42:54in three months
00:42:55would become
00:42:56the primary heir.
00:42:56It's already been two months.
00:42:58His numbers are almost
00:42:59a hundred million
00:42:59higher than mine.
00:43:00Why did you tell him sooner?
00:43:02I just don't want
00:43:02to put so much pressure
00:43:03on you.
00:43:04Don't worry.
00:43:05I've got this.
00:43:07You don't need to stress
00:43:07about this company's
00:43:08performance anymore.
00:43:10A hundred million in sales?
00:43:11That's not so hard.
00:43:12Did you hear what
00:43:15this Mookie just said?
00:43:15A hundred million?
00:43:16No problem?
00:43:17Back when we had
00:43:18over a dozen people,
00:43:19we barely hit
00:43:19thirty million a month.
00:43:20Where does he get
00:43:21that confidence?
00:43:22If you ask me,
00:43:23he's just a fraud.
00:43:24Don't let him fool you.
00:43:25Your limits
00:43:26aren't mine to share.
00:43:27You might be useless,
00:43:28but I'm not.
00:43:29Man, you sure talk big.
00:43:31In Northbridge,
00:43:32aside from that guy,
00:43:33the one who has been
00:43:33called the sales god,
00:43:35not a single person
00:43:36could single-handedly
00:43:36bring in
00:43:37one hundred million
00:43:37in a month.
00:43:39The sales god?
00:43:40Who's that?
00:43:41You don't even know
00:43:42the sales god?
00:43:42Wow, you really are
00:43:43out of the loop.
00:43:44He took a startup
00:43:45and turned it
00:43:46into an industry leader
00:43:47in just eight years.
00:43:48That's right.
00:43:48And he's even the mentor
00:43:49of Director Bennett.
00:43:51Mm-hmm.
00:43:52Five years ago,
00:43:53I attended one of his lectures.
00:43:54From that moment on,
00:43:55it was like a light bulb
00:43:56went off in my head.
00:43:58Ever since then,
00:43:58my sales career
00:43:59has been smooth sailing.
00:44:00Eight years,
00:44:01from a startup
00:44:02to the industry leader.
00:44:03Are they talking about me?
00:44:05Director Bennett,
00:44:05are you the one
00:44:06who called him
00:44:07the sales god?
00:44:08What are you implying?
00:44:09Got a problem?
00:44:10No.
00:44:10I never said
00:44:11I didn't agree.
00:44:12But have you ever considered?
00:44:13Maybe I am the sales god
00:44:15you keep talking about.
00:44:16Oh, come on.
00:44:17Quit bragging.
00:44:17If you're the god,
00:44:18I'll leave this table
00:44:19right now.
00:44:20If you are the god,
00:44:21I'll leave every desk
00:44:22in this office.
00:44:23We'll remember what you said.
00:44:24Don't try to
00:44:24back out later.
00:44:26Miss Morgan,
00:44:27do you believe in me?
00:44:28Since I brought you in,
00:44:29I'm going to trust you completely.
00:44:31Edward,
00:44:32Nathan worked hard
00:44:32to land this deal.
00:44:33Why are you trying
00:44:34to mess it up?
00:44:34Lauren,
00:44:35trust me,
00:44:36this client is a scam artist.
00:44:37I don't want the company
00:44:38to take a loss.
00:44:39Why do you think
00:44:39everyone's a scammer?
00:44:40I think you're just jealous.
00:44:41He's a new hire,
00:44:42but already closed the deal.
00:44:43I asked you to mentor him
00:44:43not to put him down.
00:44:45So this is how
00:44:46being trusted feels.
00:44:47Since you believe in me,
00:44:48I won't let you down.
00:44:51Right here, right now.
00:44:52I promise.
00:44:53I'll have $200 million
00:44:54in sales within a month.
00:44:56If I don't,
00:44:57I'll resign on my own.
00:44:59Edward,
00:45:00no need to swear on it.
00:45:01Whether you pull it off or not,
00:45:02I will have your back.
00:45:03Don't worry.
00:45:04If I say I'll do something,
00:45:05you can count on it.
00:45:07Oh, stop bragging.
00:45:09$200 million in a month?
00:45:10You realize what that means?
00:45:12Miss Morgan,
00:45:12I'm giving you one last chance.
00:45:14Invite me back
00:45:14with some respect.
00:45:16Double the salary
00:45:17for me
00:45:17and my brothers.
00:45:19Then I'll get back
00:45:19to work for you
00:45:20and help you
00:45:21secure the Morgan Group.
00:45:23Inheritance!
00:45:24Just keep dreaming.
00:45:25Miss Morgan,
00:45:26don't let your pride
00:45:27get in the way.
00:45:31Do you really believe
00:45:32this kid can single-handedly
00:45:33bring in $200 million
00:45:35in sales for you?
00:45:37One person pulling off
00:45:38$200 million in a month
00:45:39is honestly a stretch.
00:45:41See?
00:45:41Even he's backing down.
00:45:43Miss Morgan,
00:45:43you should just take
00:45:44Mr. Bennett's offer.
00:45:45Edward,
00:45:46if you can't handle it,
00:45:47it's really okay.
00:45:49Relax.
00:45:51I'm just saying
00:45:51it's tough
00:45:52for one person,
00:45:53but I never said
00:45:54I'd be doing it alone.
00:45:55What?
00:45:56You're planning
00:45:56to bring in a whole team?
00:45:58Miss Morgan,
00:45:59I'll need a budget
00:45:59to buy back
00:46:00my entire old team.
00:46:01They are
00:46:02way better than this bunch.
00:46:04Fine.
00:46:04Have it your way.
00:46:06Security!
00:46:07These people
00:46:08are already fired.
00:46:09Get them
00:46:10all out of here.
00:46:13You lousy guard.
00:46:14I'll remember this.
00:46:15Wait till I come back.
00:46:16First thing I'll do
00:46:16is get you fired.
00:46:17Sure.
00:46:17We'll see that
00:46:18if you return, idiot.
00:46:19Nick, calm down.
00:46:21Don't stoop to the guards' level.
00:46:22Jeez.
00:46:22Nick, what do we do now?
00:46:23I still have a mortgage today.
00:46:25Yeah, my kid's still in school.
00:46:26No income now.
00:46:27What am I supposed to do?
00:46:28All right.
00:46:28Everyone quiet down.
00:46:30Don't worry, guys.
00:46:31I've still got Lucas
00:46:31backing me up.
00:46:32Lucas Morgan?
00:46:33Isn't that Claire Morgan,
00:46:34our boss's brother?
00:46:35Are you sabotaging Claire's business
00:46:36just to help Lucas win?
00:46:37That's right.
00:46:39Once Lucas
00:46:40takes over Morgan Group,
00:46:41even the scraps
00:46:42from his fingers
00:46:43will be enough
00:46:44for us to live large.
00:46:45From now on,
00:46:46the sales department
00:46:47will follow new rules.
00:46:48Everyone has to clock in every day.
00:46:50If you're on a business trip,
00:46:51you have to upload a photo
00:46:52every half hour.
00:46:53Miss just one,
00:46:54and you'll lose half a day's pay.
00:46:56Nathan,
00:46:57you're making things hard for us.
00:46:58A photo every 30 minutes?
00:47:00Who has time for that
00:47:00when swamped?
00:47:01Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:47:02This is just you picking on us.
00:47:03Everyone shut up.
00:47:04Look at you all.
00:47:04Spoiled by Edward.
00:47:05Everyone's slacking off.
00:47:06It's so disgraceful.
00:47:07Since Lauren put me in charge
00:47:08as sales director,
00:47:09I'm going to run a tight ship.
00:47:11One more thing.
00:47:11We're outside.
00:47:12Call me Mr. Reed.
00:47:15Earlier,
00:47:16you called me by my first name.
00:47:17That cost you half a month's pay.
00:47:19Nathan,
00:47:19don't push it too far.
00:47:21It's the second time
00:47:21I'm docking you a month's pay.
00:47:25I quit.
00:47:26Leonard,
00:47:26let's talk this through.
00:47:27Why not on impulse?
00:47:28Hook my ass.
00:47:29He's at the bottom of the sales board,
00:47:30a pretty boy climbing with connections.
00:47:32Where does he get that arrogance?
00:47:33Shut up.
00:47:34Security.
00:47:35Get him out of here.
00:47:36Don't bother.
00:47:36I'll leave myself.
00:47:38Leonard, Leonard.
00:47:39Miss Carter,
00:47:40Leonard's been with us for years,
00:47:41working hard and dedicated.
00:47:42At the very least,
00:47:43he's put in a grind.
00:47:44Nathan Reed
00:47:44was appointed as sales director by me.
00:47:47If you disrespect him,
00:47:48you're disrespecting me.
00:47:49Got kicked out.
00:47:50He brought it on himself.
00:47:51You.
00:47:52Now,
00:47:53does anyone else have a problem?
00:47:55Good.
00:47:56Next,
00:47:57here's the second room.
00:47:59All sales departments
00:47:59need to go expand
00:48:00into other regions.
00:48:02Also,
00:48:02travel reimbursements
00:48:03are cut in half.
00:48:04If you miss your targets this month,
00:48:05your base salary gets cut in half.
00:48:06Miss your targets two months in a row,
00:48:08you're fired on the spot.
00:48:14What are you doing?
00:48:16Oh,
00:48:16just compiling our current client data,
00:48:18planning follow-up sales strategies.
00:48:20All right,
00:48:21take a break.
00:48:21Let's go grab some food.
00:48:22Let's go grab some food.
00:48:26By the way,
00:48:27you're coming with me
00:48:28to an industry networking event.
00:48:29No problem.
00:48:29Welcome.
00:48:40What's going on?
00:48:42Leonard,
00:48:42what are you doing here?
00:48:44Edward,
00:48:45who's this?
00:48:46Oh,
00:48:46this is my new boss,
00:48:47Miss Morgan.
00:48:48Nice to meet you.
00:48:49Leonard,
00:48:49how did you end up
00:48:50working security here?
00:48:50Edward,
00:48:51ever since you left,
00:48:52Nathan's been acting out.
00:48:53Just because he's the director,
00:48:54he's not just cut the travel budget,
00:48:56but also requires travelers
00:48:57to send a work photo every half an hour.
00:48:58If you don't,
00:48:59they dock your pay.
00:49:00I couldn't take it anymore,
00:49:01so I argued with him,
00:49:02and then I got fired.
00:49:03That's just ridiculous.
00:49:04Didn't Lauren do anything?
00:49:05She's completely lost her mind over him.
00:49:07She didn't care.
00:49:08They didn't even help him.
00:49:08If you ask me,
00:49:09that company's finished.
00:49:11Forget it.
00:49:12Whatever he wants.
00:49:12If he wants to mess up,
00:49:13it's his own problem.
00:49:14I'm short-handed now.
00:49:15Come work for me.
00:49:16I'll double your salary.
00:49:17Are you sure?
00:49:18If Edward says it,
00:49:19you can count on it.
00:49:20Wow, that's amazing.
00:49:21But what about Kurt and the others?
00:49:23Don't worry.
00:49:24Miss Morgan here
00:49:24has got real influence.
00:49:26We'll bring all the guys over
00:49:26and let Nathan Reed
00:49:27run his team solo.
00:49:29Ha!
00:49:29Oh, thank you, Ed.
00:49:30Thank you, Miss Morgan.
00:49:31No need to be so formal.
00:49:32Come on,
00:49:33let's head to the networking event.
00:49:47What's up with this hotel?
00:49:48How come just anyone can walk in?
00:49:50Did a security guard sneak in here?
00:49:52You don't know?
00:49:52This is a networking event
00:49:53hosted by the Reed family.
00:49:54The Reeds represent the Morgans
00:49:56here in Rivermore.
00:49:58No one can match their influence.
00:49:59Unbelievable.
00:50:00Someone is causing trouble here.
00:50:02Wait till Mr. Victor Reed shows up.
00:50:04They're in for it.
00:50:05You hear that?
00:50:06Get out of here while you can.
00:50:07Who's that as a security guard?
00:50:09He's wearing the uniform.
00:50:10What else would he be?
00:50:11Don't tell me.
00:50:12You're trying to protect him.
00:50:13Edward,
00:50:14why'd you bring him here?
00:50:15Before Victor Reed arrives,
00:50:16kick him out.
00:50:16There's no time.
00:50:18Lauren Carter.
00:50:19I didn't expect you to be this cold.
00:50:21Leonard has worked hard for years.
00:50:22You just fire him like that?
00:50:23He refused to follow Nathan's management
00:50:25and argue with people in public.
00:50:26Firing him,
00:50:27how is that not justified?
00:50:28So he deserves it, huh?
00:50:30If you ask me,
00:50:31with people like that in our company,
00:50:32no wonder,
00:50:33it's going under.
00:50:35Leonard works for me now.
00:50:36He's not a guard.
00:50:36He's an industry professional.
00:50:38Now,
00:50:39does he have the right
00:50:39to attend this event?
00:50:42If he's really in the business,
00:50:43then he's definitely qualified.
00:50:45From what I've heard,
00:50:47you already left Lauren's company.
00:50:49You're basically unemployed now.
00:50:50What employees?
00:50:51That's right.
00:50:52Edward,
00:50:53you're just jobless at this point.
00:50:54What are you doing here?
00:50:55Hurry up and leave.
00:50:56Otherwise,
00:50:56when Victor gets here,
00:50:57you're screwed.
00:50:57He has zero tolerance for nonsense.
00:50:59Lauren Carter,
00:51:00don't tell me
00:51:00I can't find another job
00:51:02after leaving you.
00:51:04It's tough out there right now.
00:51:06And with your education,
00:51:07of course it's not easy for you.
00:51:08Exactly.
00:51:09Even if you did land something in a rush,
00:51:10it'd just be an entry-level sales job.
00:51:12You employees?
00:51:13Next time you lie,
00:51:14try rehearsing it first.
00:51:15Who said Edward can't get a job?
00:51:16You guys are just blind to his talent,
00:51:18but I can see it.
00:51:19And who are you?
00:51:20I'm the CEO of Shine Sun Corporation.
00:51:23Edward is currently
00:51:24the sales director I hired.
00:51:27Edward,
00:51:28so that's why
00:51:29you're in such a rush to divorce,
00:51:30turns out you just wanted
00:51:31to be with her.
00:51:32Lauren Carter,
00:51:33you know exactly
00:51:34why we're getting divorced.
00:51:35It has nothing to do with Claire.
00:51:36Oh, nothing.
00:51:38She's practically glued to your side.
00:51:41Lauren,
00:51:42for all we know,
00:51:42they've been hooking up for a while.
00:51:44He's probably cheated more times
00:51:45than I can count.
00:51:46Wow, Edward.
00:51:47I even felt guilty before
00:51:48and tried to make it up to you.
00:51:49Turns out you were cheating all along.
00:51:51How could you do this to me?
00:51:52That's not true.
00:51:52I only reached out to Edward
00:51:53after learning about your divorce.
00:51:55We hadn't spoken before then at all.
00:51:56Edward never cheated on you.
00:51:57What business do you have
00:51:58talking to us right now?
00:51:59Why are you putting in?
00:52:00I...
00:52:00What?
00:52:01Let me make this clear.
00:52:02Edward and I aren't divorced yet.
00:52:04If you try to get between us,
00:52:05you're just a homewrecker.
00:52:06A homewrecker showing up
00:52:07at Victor's party.
00:52:09Don't you have any shame?
00:52:10I heard Victor is super devoted,
00:52:12in love with the same woman
00:52:13for over a year.
00:52:13Yeah,
00:52:13and he especially hates
00:52:15those homewreckers.
00:52:16Looks like those two
00:52:16are in for it now.
00:52:17Don't listen to him.
00:52:18I'm not a homewrecker
00:52:19and Edward never cheated.
00:52:20Then why did you bring
00:52:21my husband here
00:52:22acting so close?
00:52:23You're not cheating?
00:52:25Enough.
00:52:29Hey,
00:52:29little girl.
00:52:30Aren't you scared
00:52:30going home alone?
00:52:31Want me to walk you home?
00:52:32I'm not scared.
00:52:33I don't need you guys.
00:52:35When a woman says no,
00:52:36she really means yes.
00:52:37Hey,
00:52:37man,
00:52:38why don't you walk her home already?
00:52:39Lauren Carter,
00:52:46say whatever you want
00:52:46about me,
00:52:47but don't drag Claire into this.
00:52:48Who's dragging her?
00:52:49You brought her here
00:52:50in front of everyone.
00:52:51If Victor sees this,
00:52:52he'd definitely be pissed off.
00:52:53I heard,
00:52:54at today's conference,
00:52:55he'll represent the Morgans
00:52:56to pick a new investor.
00:52:58That's huge news
00:52:59for every single one of us.
00:53:00Yeah,
00:53:01but the two of them are here.
00:53:03If they upset Victor
00:53:04and it comes back on us,
00:53:05we're screwed.
00:53:06Exactly.
00:53:07So,
00:53:08before he shows up,
00:53:10get those two out of here.
00:53:13Nathan,
00:53:14Lauren Carter,
00:53:15you really know
00:53:16how to play the victim.
00:53:17The way you double-center everything
00:53:18is honestly unbeatable.
00:53:19Everyone,
00:53:20our relationships
00:53:21are completely about board.
00:53:22There's nothing improper at all.
00:53:24If you're talking about anyone here
00:53:25cheating
00:53:25or being the other woman,
00:53:28it's actually them.
00:53:29I've got the proof right here
00:53:31on my phone.
00:53:32Let me take a look.
00:53:34It really is them.
00:53:35I can't believe it's them.
00:53:36Cheating and being a side piece.
00:53:37Edward,
00:53:38why are you showing
00:53:39our private stuff to everyone?
00:53:40So what?
00:53:41You and Nathan
00:53:42can throw accusations
00:53:43about me and Claire
00:53:43with no proof,
00:53:44but when I have evidence,
00:53:45I can't expose
00:53:46your affair with him.
00:53:47How many times
00:53:47do I have to explain?
00:53:48There's nothing between us.
00:53:49Why do you keep
00:53:50bringing up old grudges?
00:53:51I never wanted
00:53:52to put these photos out there,
00:53:53but you started
00:53:53slendering us first.
00:53:54Lauren Carter,
00:53:55I'll say this.
00:53:56You reap
00:53:57what you sow.
00:53:59Everyone,
00:53:59now,
00:54:00it's pretty clear
00:54:01who's cheating
00:54:02and who's the homewrecker.
00:54:04So,
00:54:04the ones who should be
00:54:05kicked out
00:54:06are them.
00:54:08Nathan,
00:54:09what do we do?
00:54:10If we can't get
00:54:10the Morgan's investment,
00:54:12we won't last much longer.
00:54:13Think of something fast.
00:54:14Don't worry.
00:54:15As long as I'm here,
00:54:16we're not getting kicked out.
00:54:17Because,
00:54:18Victor is my brother.
00:54:20You're his younger brother?
00:54:22Why didn't you tell me before?
00:54:24Because I don't want
00:54:24to rely on my family.
00:54:25I want to take off
00:54:26and shine
00:54:26all on my own.
00:54:28Nathan,
00:54:29you're amazing.
00:54:30How did I not know
00:54:31Victor had a brother?
00:54:32What did you say?
00:54:33Uh,
00:54:33nothing.
00:54:34I can't believe
00:54:35he's Victor's younger brother.
00:54:37Hello.
00:54:38I'm the CEO of Huawei Group.
00:54:40I look forward
00:54:40to working with you.
00:54:41No problem.
00:54:42My brother will be here
00:54:43any minute.
00:54:44What are you waiting for?
00:54:46Get these two out of here!
00:54:47Did you two
00:54:48not hear that?
00:54:49Get lost!
00:54:49Do you really believe
00:54:50he's Victor's younger brother?
00:54:52Victor will be here soon.
00:54:53Does he have a death wish?
00:54:55Pretending to be his brother?
00:54:56Stop talking.
00:54:57Get out.
00:54:58I'm calling security.
00:54:59Yeah.
00:54:59Get out of here.
00:55:00Get out of here.
00:55:01Get out of here.
00:55:02Get out of here.
00:55:04Let's go for now.
00:55:05A wise man knows
00:55:05when to back down.
00:55:08Claire.
00:55:09Claire.
00:55:11Edward,
00:55:11don't worry.
00:55:12Victor would never
00:55:13kick me out.
00:55:14Why?
00:55:15Still not leaving.
00:55:16Security,
00:55:17throw these three out.
00:55:19Let go?
00:55:21Claire.
00:55:21Mr. Victor,
00:55:22read us here.
00:55:24What are you all doing?
00:55:32Victor,
00:55:33you're here.
00:55:34Who are you?
00:55:35My grandpa's godfather
00:55:36is your great-grandpa's assistant.
00:55:37He was given the surname Reed.
00:55:38We actually met
00:55:39at the memorial ceremony.
00:55:40Don't you remember?
00:55:41Oh,
00:55:42got it.
00:55:42Did I explain Nathan
00:55:43to be Victor's brother?
00:55:44I knew I made the right choice.
00:55:46Nice to meet you.
00:55:48What's going on here?
00:55:49Those two,
00:55:50one cheated while married,
00:55:51the other is a home record.
00:55:52What a pair of scumbags.
00:55:53Kick them out now.
00:55:54If they can't be loyal
00:55:55to their own partners,
00:55:56how am I supposed
00:55:57to trust them with business?
00:55:58Throw them all out.
00:56:00Blacklist them
00:56:00across Rivermore.
00:56:01Yes, sir.
00:56:02Security,
00:56:02get them out of here.
00:56:03Victor,
00:56:04it's Claire.
00:56:04Help me.
00:56:05Claire?
00:56:07Let go of her.
00:56:09Claire,
00:56:09it really is you.
00:56:11Claire,
00:56:12it's really you.
00:56:12I never thought you'd come.
00:56:13I'm so happy to see you.
00:56:16Edward,
00:56:16are you okay?
00:56:17I'm fine.
00:56:19So,
00:56:19what's going on?
00:56:20I've known Victor
00:56:21for a long time.
00:56:22I had no idea
00:56:23he'd come here.
00:56:24Claire,
00:56:25who is he?
00:56:27This is the Edward
00:56:28I always tell you about.
00:56:29Back when I was missing
00:56:30from my family,
00:56:30he helped me a lot.
00:56:31Claire,
00:56:32so this is the one
00:56:33who owns your heart.
00:56:34I chased after you
00:56:35for ten years,
00:56:36and in the end
00:56:36I still lost.
00:56:38They say he chased
00:56:38a girl for ten years.
00:56:40Could it be Claire?
00:56:41The way he's looking
00:56:42at me.
00:56:43Does he see me
00:56:43as a rival in love?
00:56:45Victor Reed.
00:56:48Edward Quinn.
00:56:57Guess I lost.
00:56:59You are
00:56:59stronger than me.
00:57:02Victor,
00:57:02why are you using
00:57:03so much force?
00:57:05Are you okay?
00:57:06I'm fine.
00:57:08I'm hurting too.
00:57:09Oh, right.
00:57:10Sir,
00:57:10Nathan Reed here
00:57:11claim he's your
00:57:12younger brother.
00:57:13Is that true?
00:57:14Making up fake
00:57:15family ties
00:57:15and throwing his
00:57:16weight around
00:57:16in my name
00:57:17feels good, huh?
00:57:19No, Victor, no.
00:57:20Sir,
00:57:21I'm not making
00:57:21anything up.
00:57:22The family tree says
00:57:23I'm really
00:57:23your younger brother.
00:57:24Our connection.
00:57:25We couldn't be
00:57:26more distant
00:57:26if you tried.
00:57:27If you dare use
00:57:27my name to throw
00:57:28your weight around
00:57:29again,
00:57:29I won't let it slide.
00:57:30Get out.
00:57:32Out!
00:57:32Mason,
00:57:33what's going on here?
00:57:33I'm in a really
00:57:39bad mood today.
00:57:40Everyone get out.
00:57:41Move it.
00:57:42Hurry up.
00:57:47Victor,
00:57:48isn't today
00:57:48the industry meeting?
00:57:49Why did you kick
00:57:50everyone out?
00:57:51This whole event
00:57:52was set up
00:57:52just for you.
00:57:53It's you and your
00:57:53brother's test.
00:57:54I can't step in directly.
00:57:56I was hoping to find
00:57:56a reliable company,
00:57:57but honestly,
00:57:58these idiots
00:57:58have no vision at all.
00:58:00None of them
00:58:00is worth trusting.
00:58:01Sir,
00:58:02we appreciate
00:58:03your good intentions.
00:58:04As the new sales director
00:58:04at Claire's company,
00:58:06of course,
00:58:06I'll help her
00:58:07with the trial.
00:58:08You?
00:58:09Seriously?
00:58:11Do you have any idea
00:58:12how important
00:58:13this trial is
00:58:14for Claire?
00:58:14All right, Victor.
00:58:15You don't have
00:58:16to say any more.
00:58:16I trust Edward.
00:58:18You honestly
00:58:19have no idea
00:58:20what kind of spell
00:58:21this guy's cast on you.
00:58:22Have you thought about
00:58:22what if you fail?
00:58:24If we fail,
00:58:25we lose everything.
00:58:26Just go back
00:58:26to the way
00:58:26things were before.
00:58:27Besides,
00:58:28I trust Edward.
00:58:29He won't abandon me.
00:58:30Don't worry.
00:58:31I won't fail.
00:58:32And I'll never leave you.
00:58:33I can't with you two.
00:58:35I'm out of here.
00:58:40Edward,
00:58:41so,
00:58:42what should we do next?
00:58:43Nathan and Lauren
00:58:44have been throwing
00:58:45their weight around.
00:58:46I'm sure everyone's
00:58:47fed up with them.
00:58:48Perfect timing.
00:58:48I'm short on people
00:58:49right now.
00:58:50Gather everyone up.
00:58:51Let's make it happen.
00:58:52All right.
00:58:52Let's do this.
00:58:54Let's go.
00:58:57Nathan!
00:58:58What the hell
00:58:59is going on?
00:58:59Didn't you say
00:59:00you were Victor's
00:59:00younger brother?
00:59:01He doesn't even
00:59:02know who you are.
00:59:02Lauren,
00:59:04let me explain.
00:59:05I really am his brother,
00:59:06but we're not that close.
00:59:07He just did this
00:59:08today to piss me off.
00:59:08I bet it's because of Edward.
00:59:10What does this have
00:59:10to do with Edward?
00:59:12Rumor has it
00:59:13Edward's new girlfriend
00:59:14is the one
00:59:14Victor has been chasing for.
00:59:16Edward and her
00:59:16are super close,
00:59:17so of course Victor is pissed.
00:59:18He kicked us out today
00:59:19probably just to teach
00:59:20Edward to listen.
00:59:20Makes sense.
00:59:21I wonder,
00:59:22Victor,
00:59:23looked at that girl
00:59:24like something was off.
00:59:25Damn you,
00:59:26Edward.
00:59:26Even now you're
00:59:27screwing me over.
00:59:28You're making me
00:59:28lose our own
00:59:29Victor's investment.
00:59:30Lauren,
00:59:30don't worry.
00:59:32I've prepared
00:59:32two backup plans.
00:59:33Even if we can't
00:59:34get the investment,
00:59:34we can still
00:59:35save the company
00:59:36by expanding
00:59:37each other.
00:59:37Miss Carter,
00:59:38come in.
00:59:40Miss Carter,
00:59:41Mr. Reed,
00:59:42their entire
00:59:42sales team
00:59:43just resigned.
00:59:43What?
00:59:44Here's their
00:59:44resignation letter.
00:59:45Did this happen?
00:59:49They said...
00:59:50Tell me so I can
00:59:52fix this
00:59:52and get back to them.
00:59:53They said
00:59:54as long as
00:59:54Nathan Reed is still here
00:59:55they're not coming back.
00:59:56What?
00:59:58What?
00:59:59These punks!
01:00:00How could this happen?
01:00:02What are we
01:00:02supposed to do now?
01:00:04Miss Carter,
01:00:04frankly speaking,
01:00:05if you keep trusting
01:00:06this idiot,
01:00:06our company is going down.
01:00:08Hey,
01:00:09watch your mouth.
01:00:10Say one more word
01:00:11and I'll fire you on the phone.
01:00:11I don't need you to fire me.
01:00:12I quit.
01:00:13Miss Carter,
01:00:14what I just said
01:00:15was my last piece of advice.
01:00:18Am I really wrong about this?
01:00:20Lauren,
01:00:21even you don't believe me now?
01:00:23Your previous employees
01:00:24were all uneducated fools.
01:00:25They can't understand
01:00:26my advanced management methods
01:00:27from a top university overseas.
01:00:29We're better off without them.
01:00:30I'll definitely help you
01:00:30set up a new sales team.
01:00:32Yeah, right.
01:00:33Nathan's a PhD.
01:00:34He must know
01:00:35what he's talking about.
01:00:37No way!
01:00:38Of course I believe you.
01:00:40Just go ahead.
01:00:40Okay.
01:00:41I booked a private room
01:00:42at the Garden Bistro.
01:00:43Let's go together.
01:00:43I have a surprise for you.
01:00:44All right?
01:00:45Come on.
01:00:46Let's all raise a glass
01:00:47to Miss Morgan.
01:00:48No need to be so formal.
01:00:50I believe
01:00:50with Mr. Quinn leading us,
01:00:51our company is sure to thrive.
01:00:54Cheers!
01:00:54To Miss Morgan!
01:00:55Miss Morgan!
01:00:56Cheers!
01:00:57Cheers!
01:00:58Just enjoy yourselves.
01:01:02Edward,
01:01:03it's really you
01:01:03who stole my employees.
01:01:04Are you seriously
01:01:05trying to ruin me?
01:01:08Miss Carter,
01:01:08that's not fair
01:01:09the way you put it.
01:01:10We were forced out
01:01:11by this idiot.
01:01:12What's that got to do
01:01:12with Edward?
01:01:13Exactly.
01:01:14He doesn't know a thing.
01:01:15Yet loves the boss people around.
01:01:16The rules he sets
01:01:17never take the staff
01:01:17into account.
01:01:18No decent person
01:01:19can work at it.
01:01:19You're talking nonsense!
01:01:21You don't get
01:01:22my advanced style
01:01:23because your education
01:01:24actually won't allow it.
01:01:25So dear Dr. Reed,
01:01:26how did you manage
01:01:27to run off
01:01:28all your own subordinates?
01:01:30So,
01:01:31are you planning
01:01:32to chase clients yourself?
01:01:33With him,
01:01:34he stole so many
01:01:35of our clients,
01:01:36but he's still dead last.
01:01:37Honestly,
01:01:38the guy's just useless.
01:01:39Believing he can bring
01:01:40in business
01:01:40is like believing
01:01:41the sun will rise
01:01:42in the west.
01:01:42Exactly!
01:01:45Nathan,
01:01:45are you okay?
01:01:46You guys
01:01:46are way out of line!
01:01:48Mr. Reed,
01:01:49there you are.
01:01:50Director Bennett,
01:01:51you finally made it!
01:01:52Nathan,
01:01:53these people are...
01:01:54Director Bennett,
01:01:55the surprise
01:01:56I told you about.
01:01:58It's a surprise!
01:02:00What do you mean?
01:02:01Director Bennett
01:02:02is pretty famous
01:02:03in the industry.
01:02:03He's actually the protege
01:02:04of the sales god.
01:02:05He and his team,
01:02:06they're the new sales team
01:02:07I built for you.
01:02:08Sales god?
01:02:09Do you even know
01:02:10who the sales god is?
01:02:12No idea.
01:02:13Never heard
01:02:14of that title.
01:02:15Well, it's true.
01:02:16He single-handedly
01:02:17keeps a company going.
01:02:18In just eight years,
01:02:20he turned a startup
01:02:20into an industry leader.
01:02:22A legend like that
01:02:23totally deserves
01:02:24the title of sales god,
01:02:26right?
01:02:27Hey,
01:02:27not to brag,
01:02:28but I'm actually
01:02:29his protege.
01:02:31Why does the way
01:02:31he describes his god
01:02:32sound like Edward?
01:02:34Honestly,
01:02:34it does.
01:02:35So you must have had
01:02:36a high position
01:02:36at your last company,
01:02:37right?
01:02:38Nathan,
01:02:38how did you manage
01:02:39to recruit him?
01:02:40Of course.
01:02:41It took some work.
01:02:43Why are you laughing?
01:02:44You're treating a team
01:02:45I just fired.
01:02:46Like they're some kind
01:02:47of treasure.
01:02:50Fired?
01:02:51What's going on?
01:02:52Ah,
01:02:52Lauren,
01:02:53I've heard about this.
01:02:54Edward was just jealous
01:02:55of Mr. Bennett's talent.
01:02:57That's why he fired him.
01:02:57Yeah, exactly.
01:02:58That's what happened.
01:02:59Edward,
01:03:00I never thought
01:03:01you were like this.
01:03:01Even in my company,
01:03:02you were jealous of Nathan.
01:03:03Now you're doing
01:03:04the same thing.
01:03:05Miss Morgan,
01:03:06I hope you'll think
01:03:07twice before working
01:03:08with him.
01:03:08My company's business
01:03:09is none of your concern.
01:03:11Besides,
01:03:12I trust Edward.
01:03:14Some people
01:03:15just can't take
01:03:16honest advice.
01:03:17Director Bennett,
01:03:17Nathan,
01:03:18let's go.
01:03:18Hold on.
01:03:19There's still half a month
01:03:20left in our
01:03:21cooling off period.
01:03:22I hope I'll see you
01:03:23at the courthouse then.
01:03:24Fine,
01:03:24let's break up.
01:03:25But when my company
01:03:26gets huge,
01:03:26don't keep crawling back.
01:03:28With those two
01:03:28hidden talents,
01:03:30your company
01:03:30is really blessed.
01:03:32Oh,
01:03:33by the way,
01:03:34make sure all the money
01:03:35you spent on Nathan
01:03:35is ready.
01:03:37That's marital property.
01:03:38And don't forget,
01:03:39they don't need
01:03:39to be split.
01:03:40Let's go.
01:03:41Not even gonna
01:03:42bother.
01:03:42Let's go,
01:03:42Mr. Bennett.
01:03:43Try another place.
01:03:44What now?
01:03:45Drink.
01:03:46Come on,
01:03:46come on,
01:03:46come on,
01:03:47come on.
01:03:47Let's raise the glass
01:03:48to Edward
01:03:48and to Claire.
01:04:00Edward,
01:04:00thank you.
01:04:01In just half a month,
01:04:02my company's
01:04:03pulled in nearly
01:04:03200 million.
01:04:04That's enough
01:04:05for me to win
01:04:05this match.
01:04:06Well,
01:04:06what can I say?
01:04:07I'm your employee
01:04:08after all.
01:04:09Just an employee,
01:04:10huh?
01:04:11What?
01:04:11But the numbers
01:04:14aren't stable yet.
01:04:15There are still
01:04:1510 days left
01:04:16before the deadline.
01:04:17Your brother might
01:04:17use your family's
01:04:18influence
01:04:18and could easily
01:04:19catch up.
01:04:20You don't have
01:04:20to worry about that.
01:04:21The rules say
01:04:21no one's allowed
01:04:22to use family connections.
01:04:23Claire,
01:04:24you're just too naive.
01:04:25Not everyone
01:04:26follows the rules,
01:04:27especially when
01:04:28there's so much
01:04:28at stake.
01:04:29But don't worry,
01:04:30I'll help you.
01:04:32Edward,
01:04:33I believe in you.
01:04:33So you're saying
01:04:37my sister's performance
01:04:38has surpassed mine?
01:04:43You're saying
01:04:43my younger sister
01:04:45is out before me.
01:04:46Yes,
01:04:47Mr. Morgan.
01:04:48Nick,
01:04:49this is all you're doing?
01:04:50Please give me a break.
01:04:52I was just doing my job
01:04:53just fine.
01:04:53Who would have thought
01:04:54that Claire
01:04:54would find some
01:04:56new sales director
01:04:57and kick me out?
01:04:58It's got nothing
01:04:58to do with me.
01:04:59What am I supposed to do?
01:05:00Mr. Morgan,
01:05:01you can't blame Nick
01:05:02entirely for this.
01:05:02As the new director,
01:05:03you should blame.
01:05:04He's just too good.
01:05:08I couldn't handle it here
01:05:09and I can't point fingers there.
01:05:12Handing Claire
01:05:13all those billions in ass
01:05:14and it's you, Terry.
01:05:1520 years ago,
01:05:16you just didn't drown
01:05:17that little brat for me.
01:05:18Please calm down.
01:05:19It was my fault
01:05:1920 years ago.
01:05:20I didn't expect her
01:05:21to be so lucky.
01:05:21Someone saved her
01:05:22after I threw her in the water.
01:05:23But the way things
01:05:24have turned out now,
01:05:25it's not like there's
01:05:25nothing we can do.
01:05:26So tell me what can we do?
01:05:28How my grandfather
01:05:28left me was this tiny company.
01:05:30What choice do I have?
01:05:31Mr. Morgan,
01:05:32that's not quite right.
01:05:33With your status
01:05:34and position,
01:05:35even without relying
01:05:36on a family's influence,
01:05:37who would dare
01:05:37not to listen to you?
01:05:38But my grandfather
01:05:40won't let me reveal
01:05:41my identity.
01:05:41His intention is
01:05:42not to let you expose
01:05:43your identity yourself,
01:05:44but if someone else
01:05:44finds out about you
01:05:45through other channels.
01:05:47Oh,
01:05:48I did it now.
01:05:52Edward,
01:05:52bad news.
01:05:53All the clients
01:05:53we had deals with
01:05:54are all trying to back out.
01:05:57Uh-oh, Edward.
01:05:58Why aren't you anxious?
01:05:58Every client
01:05:59has canceled
01:05:59on the contracts.
01:06:00My client's canceled too.
01:06:01Mine did as well.
01:06:02Mine did as well.
01:06:03Mine did too.
01:06:05Schedule meetings
01:06:06with your clients now.
01:06:15What happened?
01:06:16What's going on?
01:06:17It's nothing.
01:06:18All the clients
01:06:18have canceled
01:06:19their contracts.
01:06:20What?
01:06:20They're all pulled out?
01:06:22So what do we do now?
01:06:23Relax.
01:06:24It's not a big deal.
01:06:25I saw this coming.
01:06:26Remember what I told you
01:06:27back in the office?
01:06:30Huh?
01:06:31You said
01:06:32my brother used
01:06:32our family's influence.
01:06:33I'm going to see my grandpa.
01:06:34Don't rush.
01:06:36He's not stupid.
01:06:37He definitely
01:06:37won't break the rules openly.
01:06:39But behind the scenes,
01:06:40he's letting his people
01:06:41drop hints
01:06:41that he's a Morgan.
01:06:42In all of Rivermore,
01:06:43who would dare
01:06:44go against him?
01:06:45So what do we do now?
01:06:46Since I expected this,
01:06:47I already got a plan.
01:06:48Look,
01:06:51here comes
01:06:52the game changer.
01:06:56Hello?
01:06:57Mr. Foster?
01:06:58Edward,
01:06:58it's something else.
01:06:59That Nick Bennett,
01:07:00he really did come to see me.
01:07:01He said,
01:07:01you offended the Morgan family.
01:07:03Anyone who works with you
01:07:04is basically going
01:07:05against the Morgans.
01:07:06But Edward,
01:07:06don't worry.
01:07:06Know me?
01:07:07I'm a man of my word.
01:07:08There's no way
01:07:08I'm ending the contract.
01:07:09No.
01:07:10Turn it.
01:07:11What?
01:07:11Relax.
01:07:11I know what...
01:07:13Claire,
01:07:14seven more days
01:07:14and you'll become the heir
01:07:16to the richest family.
01:07:16I don't care
01:07:18about being some billionaire.
01:07:19The only thing I care...
01:07:21Hello?
01:07:23Edward,
01:07:24don't be late
01:07:25for our divorce appointment
01:07:26tomorrow morning.
01:07:27I've waited so long
01:07:28for this day.
01:07:32Edward,
01:07:33let me go with you tomorrow.
01:07:35Alright.
01:07:40Oh, Edward,
01:07:41I heard your company's been
01:07:42losing a ton of clients lately.
01:07:44Hurts,
01:07:45doesn't it?
01:07:45You all know exactly
01:07:47how that feels,
01:07:47do you?
01:07:48You...
01:07:48You...
01:07:50I admit,
01:07:55before,
01:07:56I did lose a small round
01:07:57to you.
01:07:58But,
01:07:59there's an old saying,
01:08:00winning first doesn't count,
01:08:01winning last is what matters
01:08:03right now.
01:08:04You're bound to lose.
01:08:05Whether I've lost or not,
01:08:06it's not up to you.
01:08:08Alright, Edward,
01:08:09stop being so stubborn.
01:08:10You've already failed.
01:08:11In this woman's eyes,
01:08:12you're no use to her anymore.
01:08:13she's going to dump you
01:08:14sooner or later.
01:08:15I'll give you one more chance.
01:08:18As long as you accept Nathan,
01:08:19I won't go through the divorce.
01:08:21Ah,
01:08:22you really have no shame.
01:08:24Let me tell you,
01:08:26I'll never abandon every twin,
01:08:28so just give up already.
01:08:31You...
01:08:32You really are going to say yes?
01:08:33What?
01:08:40You don't trust me that much?
01:08:41No,
01:08:42I just...
01:08:42It's okay.
01:08:44I don't need this chance.
01:08:45Let's go.
01:08:46Let's get divorced.
01:08:55Oh,
01:08:56by the way,
01:08:57I did the math.
01:08:59During our marriage,
01:09:00you spent a total
01:09:00of one and a half a million
01:09:01in on Nathan.
01:09:02I've already hired a lawyer
01:09:03to file a lawsuit.
01:09:04If you don't pay it back
01:09:04within a week,
01:09:05let's wait for the court
01:09:06to enforce it.
01:09:08Let's go.
01:09:15Here's to celebrating
01:09:16your divorce
01:09:17and return to single life.
01:09:19Cheers.
01:09:25Now that I'm single again,
01:09:27are you happy?
01:09:28Happy?
01:09:28Of course I'm happy.
01:09:29Edward,
01:09:29do you know
01:09:30ever since a long,
01:09:32long time ago,
01:09:33I've already had feelings
01:09:34for you.
01:09:35Claire,
01:09:36you're drunk.
01:09:37I'm not drunk.
01:09:39Edward,
01:09:39I'm sorry.
01:09:40I've liked you
01:09:41for a long time.
01:09:51Claire,
01:09:52you're drunk.
01:09:53Let me help you get some rest.
01:09:54Okay.
01:09:54Let me help you get some rest.
01:09:56Edward.
01:10:05Don't go.
01:10:21Edward.
01:10:21Edward, please don't leave me again, okay?
01:10:35Yes?
01:10:38Relax.
01:10:39How could I ever leave you?
01:10:41Let's have breakfast.
01:10:51Edward, don't stress yourself out too much.
01:10:54Even if I lose today, and don't inherit the family business, I won't blame you.
01:10:58It's enough just to have you with me.
01:11:00Let's go.
01:11:01Well, well, didn't you two already go bankrupt?
01:11:03What are you doing here?
01:11:04Edward, this isn't a place for you.
01:11:06Leave now.
01:11:07When Mr. Morgan gets here, I won't be able to protect you.
01:11:09Then why don't you tell me?
01:11:10What kind of place it is?
01:11:11Why shouldn't I be here?
01:11:12Edward Quinn, don't push your luck.
01:11:14Today the Morgan family is about to announce they are here.
01:11:17They'll shake up the entire business world.
01:11:18All the top tycoons are fighting too with the nail to get in.
01:11:21It took us ages to get our invitation.
01:11:23You're about to go bankrupt.
01:11:24How could you have a ticket?
01:11:26How we got in is none of your business.
01:11:28Let's just go.
01:11:29Stop right there.
01:11:30This is Morgan territory.
01:11:32For you to run wild.
01:11:33Security!
01:11:34Is there a problem, sir?
01:11:36Kick these two out.
01:11:36They don't have tickets, and they have no business being here.
01:11:38Excuse me, do you have invitations?
01:11:42Excuse me, do I need an invitation?
01:11:45Miss Morgan.
01:11:45Miss Morgan?
01:11:47You're Miss Morgan?
01:11:49Of course.
01:11:50This is our one and only Miss Morgan.
01:11:51Miss Morgan, need me to throw these two who disrespected you?
01:11:54No need.
01:11:55Let them go in and see the world.
01:11:58By the way, that money you owe Edward?
01:12:00If you still can't pay it back today,
01:12:01both of you are going to jail.
01:12:03Oh, wow.
01:12:26Isn't this Miss Morgan and Mr. Quinn who kicked me out of the company a month ago?
01:12:30Long time no see.
01:12:31Let me take a look at your performance this month.
01:12:36Zero, huh?
01:12:37Wow.
01:12:38Impressive.
01:12:38So impressive.
01:12:39Ha ha ha.
01:12:40Amazing.
01:12:40They're both from the Morgan family, so why is there such a big gap?
01:12:43I never imagined someone could go an entire month without closing a single deal.
01:12:48And for that, we really have to thank Mr. Quinn.
01:12:51I heard that a month ago someone was bragging to me saying they'd hit 200 million in just one month.
01:12:57Ha, bold of you.
01:12:59Now the results are pretty obvious.
01:13:02The heir to the Morgan fortune will definitely be Lucas Morgan.
01:13:08Keep it low-key.
01:13:10After all, my grandpa hasn't made his announcement.
01:13:13Oh, Claire.
01:13:15I get that you wanted to come back, but why are you competing with me for the heir spot?
01:13:19You're Miss Morgan?
01:13:20Edward Quinn is just a paper tiger.
01:13:22Now Mr. Morgan's got his eyes on him.
01:13:23He's in for a rough time.
01:13:24Good thing you divorced him.
01:13:25Otherwise, you'd be dragged into this mess too.
01:13:27But the final outcome isn't set yet.
01:13:29Lucas Morgan, you're celebrating a little too early, aren't you?
01:13:33Less than 20 minutes left.
01:13:35Claire Morgan, are you saying you're going to beat my sales in 20 minutes?
01:13:40Huh?
01:13:41Why not?
01:13:42Who are you?
01:13:44Mr. Morgan, he's the sales director at Claire's company, Edward Quinn.
01:13:49Sales director?
01:13:50I don't dare you talk to me.
01:13:52Somebody, smack!
01:13:53Let me tell you, Edward isn't just my company's sales director.
01:13:58He's also my boyfriend.
01:14:00Let's see who dares lay a finger on him.
01:14:02Boyfriend?
01:14:05Claire Morgan, did you forget?
01:14:07If you lose today, you have to marry the disabled heir of the Shaws.
01:14:11Boyfriend?
01:14:12You deserve to have one!
01:14:14You!
01:14:14As long as Claire passes this test and becomes the heir, then there's no need for that.
01:14:23Ha!
01:14:24Edward Quinn, what gives you the confidence?
01:14:26Less than 15 minutes left.
01:14:27Zero versus 300 million.
01:14:29Can you flip the game?
01:14:30With what, huh?
01:14:31Sir Morgan is here!
01:14:32Greetings, Sir Morgan!
01:14:42Today, right here, I ask everyone to witness this.
01:14:46I officially announce the next heir of the Morgan family.
01:14:48Hold on, Sir Morgan.
01:14:50It's not time yet.
01:14:51Things aren't hopeless yet.
01:14:52How dare you!
01:14:53Sir Morgan is right here!
01:14:55You still have the nerve to brag and lie?
01:14:56Are you tired of living?
01:14:57Edward, you don't seriously think.
01:14:59With such a huge gap and less than 10 minutes left,
01:15:02he can pull off and come back?
01:15:03Why not?
01:15:04Young man, what's your relationship with Claire?
01:15:07I'm her company's sales director, and also her boyfriend.
01:15:10All right, all right.
01:15:11Grandpa, please announce it.
01:15:12There's 10 minutes left.
01:15:13Not even a miracle could do this.
01:15:14Now I announce!
01:15:15The next heir of the Morgan family!
01:15:17Wait a second.
01:15:18If not even a miracle could do this, let me give it a try.
01:15:21Mr. Foster, you can come in now.
01:15:28Time's almost up.
01:15:29And you're still calling for backup?
01:15:30Only a few minutes left.
01:15:32Who could possibly help you?
01:15:33Just wait a moment.
01:15:34You'll see us soon enough.
01:15:35Edward, stop being stubborn.
01:15:36Just admit defeat.
01:15:37If it really makes Sir Morgan angry,
01:15:39no one will be able to save you.
01:15:41Punk, got any last words?
01:15:42Say him now.
01:15:43You don't have much time left.
01:15:45Lucas, the one who needs to leave a well
01:15:47might just be you.
01:15:48You!
01:15:56The Foster family.
01:15:57The Harris family.
01:15:57And the other families of Rivermore.
01:15:59Greetings, Sir Morgan!
01:15:59Greetings, Sir Morgan.
01:16:04Everyone stand up.
01:16:06And you are all from the local families.
01:16:08Why have you come here?
01:16:09Sir Morgan, we're here today just to deliver a contract to Miss Morgan.
01:16:14Mr. Foster, didn't you say you could be all the orders for the next 15 days?
01:16:18When did I ever say I'd give you that?
01:16:20The agreement I signed with you was just a letter of intent.
01:16:22What we're signing now is a real contract.
01:16:24You...
01:16:25You dare mess with me?
01:16:27Wait, no.
01:16:27Are you trying to play Mr. Morgan?
01:16:28Do you know what will happen?
01:16:30Of course I do.
01:16:31The outcome is that Miss Morgan will become the heir.
01:16:35You...
01:16:35You're welcome.
01:16:37And we are all loyal to Miss Morgan.
01:16:39Greetings, Miss Morgan.
01:16:41No need for formalities.
01:16:43So this is the backup plan?
01:16:44Fine, fine, fine, fine.
01:16:48I really want to see how you're going to turn this around.
01:16:53Miss Morgan, I'm going to sign here.
01:17:14Impossible.
01:17:18No way.
01:17:18How could I possibly lose?
01:17:21Now I announce the next heir of the Morgan family is Claire Morgan.
01:17:28He turned the tide and held up the falling company.
01:17:31The kid's got talent.
01:17:32He's a good match for Claire.
01:17:33Sir Morgan, you flatter me.
01:17:35No way.
01:17:35There's no way I could lose.
01:17:37Grandpa, I'm your real grandson.
01:17:39How could you give the fortune to a woman?
01:17:40What about a woman?
01:17:41She's part of the Morgans too.
01:17:43Refusing to admit defeat?
01:17:44Do you have no shame?
01:17:45Step back.
01:17:46No!
01:17:47I won't step back!
01:17:48I can't lose!
01:17:50I lose?
01:17:51Right?
01:17:51I can lose.
01:17:52Mr. Morgan, you lost.
01:17:53Face the facts.
01:17:54Bullshit!
01:17:56If you hadn't failed to get rid of her 20 years ago,
01:17:59would I have lost?
01:18:00What's your words?
01:18:01Watch my ass!
01:18:02I've been planning this for years.
01:18:03So why did I lose?
01:18:05Tell me!
01:18:06What exactly have you done?
01:18:10Speak!
01:18:11What's really going on here?
01:18:12Sir Morgan,
01:18:1320 years ago,
01:18:14Mr. Morgan ordered me to throw Ms. Morgan into the river,
01:18:16but I couldn't do it.
01:18:16I left her at someone's doorstep,
01:18:18so she could live.
01:18:19Claire, is what he said true?
01:18:21My adoptive parents,
01:18:22they did find me at their front door.
01:18:24You ungrateful brat!
01:18:26Security!
01:18:27Take him away!
01:18:28Punish him severely!
01:18:29So he'll never be able to hurt anyone again!
01:18:31And the rest of you,
01:18:32confess now!
01:18:34How many terrible things have you helped them do?
01:18:35If you do,
01:18:36I will give you a way out.
01:18:37Otherwise,
01:18:37Sir Morgan,
01:18:41please have mercy!
01:18:42I'll tell you everything!
01:18:43Just spare me!
01:18:45A bunch of crooks!
01:18:46Send them all to the police station!
01:18:48Let them run in jail!
01:18:50Sir Morgan!
01:18:51And everyone else here,
01:18:53turn yourselves in before it's too late!
01:18:55Otherwise,
01:18:55if I find out myself,
01:18:56things won't be so simple!
01:18:57Let's go!
01:19:04Claire,
01:19:04these years,
01:19:06you've been through a lot.
01:19:07With your love,
01:19:08I don't suffer at all.
01:19:09This young man is not bad.
01:19:10When we get back,
01:19:11I'll have someone pick a date
01:19:12and get your wedding arranged.
01:19:13Thank you, Sir Morgan.
01:19:14Still calling me that?
01:19:17Oh.
01:19:18Thank you, Grandpa.
01:19:25Edward,
01:19:25I really know I was wrong.
01:19:26Can you forgive me this one time?
01:19:29No, I can't.
01:19:30Lauren Carter,
01:19:31it's not that you realize you were wrong.
01:19:32It's that you know your company is about to fail.
01:19:34Edward,
01:19:34think about the eight years we've shared.
01:19:37Are you really that heartless?
01:19:38You are a heartless one,
01:19:39not me.
01:19:40So you're just jealous?
01:19:42Edward,
01:19:43I swear,
01:19:44there's absolutely nothing going on
01:19:45between me and Nathan.
01:19:46I never cheated on you.
01:19:47Please believe me.
01:19:49So emotional cheating doesn't count?
01:19:51Lauren,
01:19:52a relationship needs both people to work at it.
01:19:54When something's broken,
01:19:54it can be fixed.
01:19:56Take care of yourself.
01:19:57Let's go.
01:19:58Edward!
01:20:02Lauren,
01:20:03don't be sad.
01:20:04You still have me.
01:20:05Get out of here!
01:20:06I don't work for you.
01:20:07How could I have ended up divorcing him?
01:20:09How did I not realize that you're just an idiot?
01:20:11Bitch!
01:20:12You threw yourself at me,
01:20:13and now you're calling me an idiot?
01:20:16Oh, dear,
01:20:16you hit me!
01:20:17So what if I hit you?
01:20:18Edward left you,
01:20:19and your company's gone bankrupt.
01:20:20I'm all you've got left.
01:20:21Do you get that?
01:20:22I've had enough of you!
01:20:23Come on!
01:20:24Bitch!
01:20:33Mother!
01:20:34Call the cops!
01:20:35Hurry, hurry!
01:20:35Hurry!
01:20:37Nathan, you're suspected of intentional assault
01:20:40and illegal possession of product.
01:20:41You need to come with me.
01:20:41I didn't do it!
01:20:42I did it!
01:20:48Miss Morgan,
01:20:49you're really lucky.
01:20:50Every time you come for a checkup,
01:20:52your husband's always by your side.
01:20:53What exactly
01:21:00happened to her?
01:21:01I heard that eight months ago,
01:21:03she fought with her boyfriend,
01:21:04got pushed and hit her head.
01:21:05Now she's in a coma.
01:21:06They said she might never wake up again.
01:21:08Her boyfriend, I heard,
01:21:09got sentenced to life.
01:21:13Still looking?
01:21:14Keep staring,
01:21:15and you can go be with her.
01:21:16Babe,
01:21:17don't you trust me?
01:21:18You're the only one I love.
01:21:20Hm.
01:21:20Let's go.
01:21:23Hm.
01:21:26Let's go.
