00:00:06It seems like none of the patient's family will come even if she dies.
00:00:09Not even her husband.
00:00:11The moment of my death, the people who should care the most don't want anything to do with me.
00:00:22That's impossible.
00:00:24That's a year ago.
00:00:27This time around, no one takes what's mine.
00:00:32Technically, I'm divorced, but I'm working to change that.
00:00:37Tell them I want a divorce, or we're doing it my way.
00:00:41Actually, I do.
00:00:42As a shareholder.
00:00:44You murdered my sister.
00:00:52This time?
00:00:54I wrote my own ending.
00:01:14Your wife has been in...
00:01:15If you have something to say, call my assistant, Jason.
00:01:18Mr. Donafrio!
00:01:19Oh!
00:01:24It's about your daughter, Nikki.
00:01:25She's been...
00:01:26She's married now.
00:01:26That's her husband's responsibility.
00:01:28No, no, no.
00:01:29I don't want to be involved.
00:01:34It seems like none of the patient's family will come even if she dies.
00:01:38Not even her husband.
00:01:41To the world, I have everything.
00:01:43But at the moment of my death, the people who should care the most don't want anything to do with
00:01:47me.
00:02:14I don't want to be involved.
00:02:17Where am I?
00:02:19My room?
00:02:20The hospital.
00:02:27That's impossible.
00:02:29That's a year ago.
00:02:32Martin.
00:02:36What's today's date?
00:02:37It's May 21st, ma'am.
00:02:39The year?
00:02:41Why, it's 2024, of course.
00:02:45And...
00:02:46Mr. Donafrio asked me to give you this when you woke up.
00:02:56Sign these.
00:02:58I've been patient enough.
00:03:03Is this really happening?
00:03:06They left me to die alone.
00:03:09But I'm not dead.
00:03:10I'm here.
00:03:14In my first life, I was weak.
00:03:17I surrounded my power piece by piece.
00:03:22This time around, no one takes what's mine.
00:03:27This time, I write my own ending.
00:03:33Jason, it's Nicky.
00:03:36I need you to deliver a message to my husband.
00:03:39Tell him I want a divorce.
00:03:42Or we're doing it my way.
00:03:45Sir, I have news regarding the divorce papers.
00:03:48Mrs. Donafrio signed the papers, but she made some changes to the asset division section.
00:03:53What does she want now?
00:03:55More alimony?
00:03:56The summer house?
00:03:58Actually, sir?
00:03:59She chose to walk away with nothing.
00:04:02Nothing?
00:04:04That doesn't make any sense.
00:04:06Yesterday, she wouldn't even discuss divorce.
00:04:11This is a trick.
00:04:13Martin, can you please take out the flowers that are outside?
00:04:17But they've just bloomed, ma'am.
00:04:20Charlie never liked them anyways.
00:04:22Turns out you felt the same way about me.
00:04:24As you wish, Mrs. Donafrio.
00:04:26Time to start fresh.
00:04:28On my own terms.
00:04:34Martin, what are you doing?
00:04:36I'm transplanting these flowers for Mrs. Donafrio, sir.
00:04:39She actually left.
00:04:41Yes, sir.
00:04:42She said that you never actually liked these flowers.
00:04:45That they were, how did she put it, as unwelcome as she was, sir.
00:04:51Stop.
00:04:52Eat everything as it is.
00:05:06Long day.
00:05:21Damn it.
00:05:24Walking around like you're a victim, huh?
00:05:29I only married her because my grandmother forced my hand.
00:05:33Now she wants to make me look bad in front of her.
00:05:36Playing in the martyr.
00:05:37This little performance won't work on me.
00:05:44We have to talk.
00:05:46Whatever game it is you're playing, it ends now.
00:05:48Whether you're entitled to a fair settlement.
00:05:51Just stop the dramatics.
00:05:52You still don't get it, do you?
00:05:54I don't need your money.
00:05:55I don't need your house.
00:05:57I don't need you.
00:06:00I don't need you.
00:06:01So if you'll excuse me, City Hall closes at four.
00:06:05I'd like to be legally free of you by dinner.
00:06:08You're that desperate in this marriage?
00:06:10Desperate isn't the word I'd use.
00:06:12Determined is more accurate.
00:06:19Jason.
00:06:20Sir, I found something in the accounting records.
00:06:23Money that was supposed to go to Mrs. D'Onofrio for household expenses was being diverted.
00:06:27It looks like someone was skimming from the transfers.
00:06:30Mrs. D'Onofrio never received these funds, but the books were altered to make it appear
00:06:34as if she had requested additional money multiple times.
00:06:37Who had access to this account?
00:06:41Who had access to this account?
00:06:42Miss Winters.
00:06:44Your executive secretary.
00:06:48The marriage needs to be handled properly.
00:06:51Our families are involved.
00:06:52Don't bring the families into this.
00:06:55Like it or not, our marriage was an arrangement between two dynasties.
00:06:58We can't just end it at City Hall like some biggest weekend mistake.
00:07:06I've been redirecting Charlie's transfers to Nikki for the past year,
00:07:10making it look like she's money hungry.
00:07:12Once she's gone, Charlie and I will be working side by side.
00:07:17It's only a matter of time before he sees what's right in front of him.
00:07:23Anything else I can do for you, Mr. D'Onofrio?
00:07:26Actually, yes.
00:07:29When my wife came to visit me, what exactly did you tell her?
00:07:34She attacked me first.
00:07:35She said I was your mistress.
00:07:36That's not what the footage shows.
00:07:38The financial records show you've been tampered with Nikki's transfers.
00:07:51Sir, Mrs. D'Onofrio was on the line about the divorce timeline.
00:07:57I need to confirm when Charlie can sign the papers.
00:07:59What's your rush?
00:08:01After years of marriage, you suddenly can't wait to get rid of me?
00:08:03You're the one who handed me the divorce papers.
00:08:06You're walking away with nothing.
00:08:08What are you planning?
00:08:09You don't know me.
00:08:10You never bothered to find out.
00:08:13With this union, the Wilson gains D'Onofrio shipping holdings.
00:08:17And you, you gain our daughter.
00:08:27I was nothing but a business transaction.
00:08:31Never again.
00:08:36Dad, how does this look?
00:08:38Everything looks good on you.
00:08:45Nicky!
00:08:46Darling!
00:08:47What a lovely surprise!
00:08:51Let's not pretend, Diane.
00:08:53The lady of this house should have been my mother.
00:08:56She may be gone.
00:08:58But don't forget whose place you took.
00:09:02What's happened to her?
00:09:03Where's the meek girl who never spoke up?
00:09:06That's for my collection.
00:09:08Dad said I could have it.
00:09:09You left it behind.
00:09:10No.
00:09:11I didn't leave it.
00:09:13It was taken.
00:09:15That face was my mother's.
00:09:19And that porcelain doll.
00:09:21And those paintings.
00:09:24Everything that belonged to my mother goes back in my room immediately.
00:09:29I'm moving back in.
00:09:30You're doing what?
00:09:31You have a husband.
00:09:33A mansion of your own.
00:09:34This house was my mother's inheritance.
00:09:37I'm the oldest daughter.
00:09:38I'm reclaiming what's mine.
00:09:44I want everything back by dinner.
00:09:46People might think Maggie's the daughter of this house.
00:09:49And I'm the interloper.
00:09:51You got mad?
00:09:53Charlie would never allow this.
00:09:55I'm moving back because I'm getting divorced.
00:09:57Divorced?
00:10:01Divorced?
00:10:02This is my home now.
00:10:07Your sister's 20th birthday galleys in two days' time.
00:10:11They are not for your family has to be there to show their support.
00:10:13So stop this nonsense.
00:10:16Now.
00:10:16You never cared about my happiness.
00:10:19I rank lower in this house than your second wife's daughter.
00:10:22How on earth could you say that?
00:10:24I've only ever treated you like my own.
00:10:27Enough.
00:10:28You'll apologize to Charlie.
00:10:30Beg for forgiveness.
00:10:31And you will be the obedient wife you were raised to be.
00:10:35And if I don't say...
00:10:36You're a grateful child.
00:10:38Everything I've done for...
00:10:40What's for yourself?
00:10:41You sold me to the D'Onofrios for business contracts and financial backing.
00:10:45What?
00:10:46I'll show you respect.
00:10:47I'd like to see you try.
00:11:02Why is he here?
00:11:14Oh, Charlie.
00:11:15I didn't know you were coming.
00:11:17I won't tolerate anyone mistreating my wife.
00:11:20Not even her father.
00:11:30What are you after?
00:11:31Don't use me for your little performance.
00:11:33I'm still your husband.
00:11:34It's my duty to protect you.
00:11:37They don't look like they're divorcing.
00:11:38They're practically connolly.
00:11:41Nicky has been making outrageous accusations, disrespecting Diane, you know, claiming she's
00:11:47going to leave you.
00:11:48Oh.
00:11:49What made you try and hit her?
00:11:50She was hysterical.
00:11:52She said we arranged your marriage just for financial gains.
00:11:56Did you?
00:11:58That's absurd.
00:11:59How long have our families been friends for?
00:12:01Cut the act, Ted.
00:12:03Nicky's saying the truth.
00:12:04Isn't she?
00:12:07Nicky's saying the truth.
00:12:08Isn't she?
00:12:11She often does these days.
00:12:12Even when people don't want to hear it.
00:12:16Nicky can't speak her mind.
00:12:17And what was the point of making her Adonafrio?
00:12:20Besides, it's not as if Maggie's the legitimate heir of the Wilson family either.
00:12:25How dare you?
00:12:29If I hadn't seen the future, I might actually believe he cares about me.
00:12:35Look, since you're both already here, please, join us for dinner.
00:12:39The chef has prepared Charlie's favorite.
00:12:48Nicky, you need to consider your behavior.
00:12:51You can't have people questioning the upbringing of a Wilson daughter now.
00:12:54Do you find my behavior embarrassing, Charlie?
00:12:59On the contrary.
00:13:01It's refreshing.
00:13:08Now that we're on the subject of family, I want to make one thing abundantly clear.
00:13:12Nicky might be your daughter, but she's my wife.
00:13:15I never want to see you raise a hand to her ever again.
00:13:18I'll stop it, Charlie.
00:13:20Apologize to her.
00:13:21Right now.
00:13:27Apologize to her.
00:13:29Right now.
00:13:33I, um, I apologize for my behavior, Nicky.
00:13:41This doesn't make sense.
00:13:44A year from now, you'll be praying for my death.
00:13:48Days ago, you handed me divorce papers.
00:13:52I'm suddenly my champion.
00:13:57What game are you playing, Charlie?
00:14:10When are we finalizing the divorce?
00:14:12That's what you want to talk about.
00:14:14Throw how I defended you in there.
00:14:26What's that?
00:14:27One minute demanding a divorce.
00:14:29The next falling into my eyes.
00:14:35When you're falling, you grab whatever's closest.
00:14:38Don't flatter yourself.
00:14:43Are you implying you were just throwing yourself at me just now?
00:14:47And if I was?
00:14:50I'd still my wife.
00:14:53It's so strange.
00:14:54I don't want to touch you.
00:14:59Let go of me.
00:15:01I'm your future ex-wife.
00:15:03Nothing more.
00:15:05Papers aren't signed yet.
00:15:08Have your assistant contact me about the divorce.
00:15:12I'm done dealing with you directly.
00:15:13I'm done dealing with you directly.
00:15:42Listen, we'll handle this quietly.
00:15:46There's something different about her.
00:15:48Something's changed.
00:15:49No, no, no.
00:15:50She's just being dramatic.
00:15:52No, Ted.
00:15:53She definitely knows something.
00:15:55What if she found out?
00:15:56What if she knows about us?
00:15:58That I was pregnant with Mackie while her mother was still alive.
00:16:01No, it's impossible.
00:16:02No one knew.
00:16:04No.
00:16:04The way that she looked at me today.
00:16:07She knows I was your mistress before I became your wife.
00:16:09Ah, even if she suspects something, what could she do?
00:16:14You know, the states, the company shares, they're all going to Mackie anyway.
00:16:20No.
00:16:21No.
00:16:22Ah, Daya.
00:16:29He betrayed her even before she died.
00:16:36He brought his mistress and a legitimate child into her home.
00:16:41A year from now, he'll abandon me when I'm dying.
00:16:48And now I know everything.
00:16:51I'll take back what's mine.
00:16:53Everything.
00:16:55Everything.
00:17:02It's still your favorite, isn't it?
00:17:05Life got kind of complicated after I got married.
00:17:09Sorry we lost touch.
00:17:12I regret losing contact with you.
00:17:15I felt like I lost a real friend.
00:17:23You know.
00:17:25You deserve better than Charlie.
00:17:29I've finally accepted it.
00:17:32Charlie doesn't love me.
00:17:34He never did.
00:17:37It seems like none of the patient's family will come even if she dies.
00:17:41Not even her husband.
00:17:43I've held on for too long.
00:17:45But now I'm done.
00:17:47He has no idea what he's throwing away.
00:17:51You're so...
00:17:52You're so beautiful.
00:17:55Intelligent.
00:17:56Kind.
00:17:57You gave up so much for him, Nicky.
00:18:00And your medical research project.
00:18:03I mean, come on.
00:18:04You were this close to a breakthrough when you left.
00:18:08You sacrificed your entire career for him, Nicky.
00:18:16You know.
00:18:17I've...
00:18:19I've kind of had a crush on you for the last ten years.
00:18:26Sorry.
00:18:28I don't mean to make things awkward, but...
00:18:31But seriously.
00:18:32Once you finalize the divorce,
00:18:35maybe you should try dating other guys.
00:18:43That actually sounds like a fantastic plan.
00:18:49Chris.
00:18:51I, um...
00:18:52I need to ask you something important.
00:18:56Anything.
00:18:57I need your help.
00:18:58Investigating my stepmother and father.
00:19:01Maggie's my father's illegitimate child.
00:19:04Conceived while my mother was still alive.
00:19:06I overheard them talking, but I need proof.
00:19:09Concrete evidence.
00:19:13Whatever you need.
00:19:15Nicky.
00:19:16I'm here for you.
00:19:17I always will be.
00:19:21One more.
00:19:23I think you've had enough.
00:19:25Nobody really loves me.
00:19:27Not my father.
00:19:29Not Charlie.
00:19:31That's not true.
00:19:35I've always loved you, Nicky.
00:19:39Since the first day I saw you in biochemistry class.
00:19:46I've loved you since then.
00:19:49Put your hands off my wife.
00:19:57I've always loved you, Nicky.
00:20:03Put your hands off my wife.
00:20:10You made your choice when you filed for divorce.
00:20:17Papers aren't signed yet.
00:20:21You don't deserve her, Charlie.
00:20:23You never did.
00:20:24I don't deserve her.
00:20:26And you think you do.
00:20:31Hey, let her go.
00:20:33Stay away from my wife.
00:20:44Chris, is that you?
00:20:47It's me, Charlie.
00:20:58I'm going to take all of Charlie's money.
00:21:05Every cent.
00:21:07Is that so?
00:21:08I'll ruin him.
00:21:10Then I'll date all those handsome young lab boys.
00:21:13One new boyfriend every day.
00:21:17Really?
00:21:18A new boyfriend every day?
00:21:19Why not?
00:21:21Charlie doesn't love me.
00:21:27You don't know that.
00:22:08What did I do to make you do this?
00:22:10You took everything.
00:22:12Not a single piece of clothing left.
00:22:16Nicky, you changed.
00:22:19You can't sleep in those clothes.
00:22:24Aw, take it off.
00:22:28Nicky.
00:22:55Why am I in Charlie's shirt?
00:23:00Aw, take it off.
00:23:04Take it off.
00:23:14Thanks for helping me out last night, Martin.
00:23:17I didn't help you out, Mrs. D'Onofrio.
00:23:18The master did.
00:23:21Good morning.
00:23:24Good morning.
00:23:34Why are you so flustered, just changing clothes?
00:23:40Unless, you weren't thinking of something else.
00:23:42In that case, we can go upstairs.
00:23:44I'll explain every detail.
00:23:48Tell me right now.
00:23:49Let everyone know how you took advantage of me when I was drunk.
00:23:53This is a private affair between husband and wife.
00:23:57What's there to be private about?
00:23:59I bet you couldn't perform anyway.
00:24:03Who told you that?
00:24:05Am I wrong?
00:24:06Very.
00:24:08Charlie, we've been married for three years.
00:24:11But were we ever truly a couple?
00:24:14I mean, I don't recall us ever being intimate.
00:24:18What other explanation is there besides sexual inadequacy?
00:24:23Enough.
00:24:25I'll show you just how inadequate I am.
00:24:31Put me down.
00:24:32Now.
00:24:34Not until we settle this.
00:24:49Are you done with your little demonstration?
00:24:52Who says I'm playing?
00:24:53Please.
00:24:54Yesterday, you wanted a divorce.
00:24:56Today, you want me?
00:25:05Yes?
00:25:06Charlie!
00:25:07It's your favorite sis-in-law, Maggie.
00:25:10You're coming to my birthday party, right?
00:25:12Yes.
00:25:13I'll be there.
00:25:16As we celebrate Maggie's 20th birthday, I ask you all to welcome her as the future of the Wilson family.
00:25:24She will need your guidance and support.
00:25:26A toast to Maggie.
00:25:29Maggie!
00:25:54Who is that?
00:25:57Who is that?
00:25:59Thank you for escorting my wife.
00:26:02You can leave now.
00:26:05He's here as my guest.
00:26:07I found what you asked for.
00:26:10What is that?
00:26:12You two pretend you don't exist?
00:26:18Nikki, dear.
00:26:19It's Maggie's special day.
00:26:21Let's not close the scene.
00:26:22I've heard rumors that you've become quite difficult lately.
00:26:25Nikki hasn't said a word.
00:26:27You're already condemning her.
00:26:28Well, so, now that convenient, these rumors align perfectly with your own narrative.
00:26:34The Yad only ever wanted to create peace in this family.
00:26:36Peace?
00:26:37Is that what you call it?
00:26:39I don't care how you've treated me all these years.
00:26:42But the company was my mother's legacy.
00:26:53I won't stand by and watch be handed to an outsider.
00:27:04I'm not an outsider.
00:27:05I'm Dad's daughter, too.
00:27:07No.
00:27:07You're just my stepmother's child she brought into our family.
00:27:11I'm not.
00:27:12I'm just biological.
00:27:13Donnie.
00:27:14Please.
00:27:15Nikki.
00:27:16Maggie isn't a threat to your position.
00:27:18That's right.
00:27:19I treated you both equally.
00:27:20Equally?
00:27:21Equally.
00:27:21I wouldn't dare compare myself to a legitimate child.
00:27:26Stop this vicious lies.
00:27:28Lies.
00:27:30Birth certificates.
00:27:32DNA tests.
00:27:34Medical records.
00:27:48Soliciting the black and white.
00:27:50Maggie was born while my mother was still alive.
00:27:53You fathered a child with your mistress while your wife was battling cancer.
00:27:59How could you do this to my mother?
00:28:03Need to pour out the dirty laundry in public?
00:28:05You should have shown some respect.
00:28:07Please.
00:28:08Nikki.
00:28:09Think of the family name.
00:28:10Drop the act.
00:28:11I'm joining the family business.
00:28:14You can't.
00:28:15The company was built by my mother.
00:28:18You were supposed to be Charlie's wife.
00:28:20That was our agreement.
00:28:25I'm divorcing, Charlie.
00:28:28This isn't a discussion.
00:28:31It's a notification.
00:28:37Enjoy the rest of your birthday party, little sister.
00:28:41The truth is my gift to you.
00:28:55Why are you following me?
00:28:57Curious.
00:28:59What's your next move?
00:29:00If you've come to witness my downfall.
00:29:02Work for me.
00:29:03I'm studying biomedical research.
00:29:05Going back in the workforce.
00:29:07Don't know if your pharmaceuticals could use someone of your background.
00:29:09I don't need your pity.
00:29:11It's not pity.
00:29:15You've become interesting.
00:29:17I don't want a divorce anymore.
00:29:22Too bad.
00:29:23I have 10,000 ways to divorce you.
00:29:31Three months.
00:29:32That's all I ask for.
00:29:33After that, you still want out.
00:29:34I send the papers gladly.
00:29:36My grandmother's visiting next week.
00:29:38What do you say?
00:29:40How we care of appearances.
00:29:42This girl saved my life with her quick thinking.
00:29:45She's the one for you, Charlie.
00:29:50Why should I?
00:29:55Nikki has officially joined the research institute.
00:29:59Dr. Lee was quite impressed by her.
00:30:04And Sarah Dawson has returned to the country.
00:30:08Her father, Mr. Dawson, called personally to request a position for her at the institute as well.
00:30:15Shall I arrange something?
00:30:18Okay.
00:30:22Hold on for now.
00:30:28Dad, he hasn't responded to any of my messages.
00:30:32Be more forward, darling.
00:30:35Charlie may be married, but everyone knows that he has no feelings for that wife of his.
00:30:40She was simply a replacement for you after you left.
00:30:44The Donofrios needed the Wilson Company connections.
00:30:47And Charlie, Charlie needed a wife.
00:30:51Am I right or am I right?
00:30:53You're right, Dad.
00:30:54Charlie has always been mine.
00:30:56And he will be again.
00:31:03A college dropout?
00:31:05Leading our research team?
00:31:08Apparently marriage to the CEO Trump's qualifications.
00:31:16Sarah Dawson's here?
00:31:18Father bypassed me completely.
00:31:20He went straight to the board, sir.
00:31:24Unacceptable.
00:31:29Sarah, I'm surprised to see you.
00:31:32Did you finally graduate?
00:31:33At least I have a degree.
00:31:35Unlike some people.
00:31:36Perhaps Mrs. Donofrio would like to demonstrate her abilities.
00:31:41We've been stuck on this formula for weeks.
00:32:00This could revolutionize our approach.
00:32:14This is done for you.
00:32:15Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.
00:32:46I'm fine.
00:32:48This doesn't make sense.
00:32:50My procedure was perfect.
00:32:52Perfect?
00:32:53You nearly killed everyone with a basic safety error.
00:32:57Mrs. Donofrio, mixing those compounds at that temperature...
00:33:01Oh, I didn't mix them incorrectly.
00:33:04Someone tampered with my experiment.
00:33:08Now she's blaming others for her incompetence.
00:33:11Classic.
00:33:13Perhaps we need to rethink team leadership.
00:33:15She has no business being in this lab, let alone leading it.
00:33:20It was you.
00:33:22Excuse me?
00:33:25I saw you.
00:33:31You put something in Nicky's speaker.
00:33:34That's ridiculous.
00:33:36I was nowhere near.
00:33:37Jason, call security.
00:33:40Tell them to pull up footage from the last ten minutes.
00:33:44There's no need for that.
00:33:46It was just a harmless prank.
00:33:48Harmless?
00:33:49You could have killed someone.
00:33:51It was just supposed to smoke a little.
00:33:53This prank will be important to the board.
00:33:56And your father.
00:33:57Now get out of my building.
00:34:00Now!
00:34:06Nicky.
00:34:07Join me for lunch?
00:34:09What exactly do you want from me?
00:34:11I just offended you in there.
00:34:13Will gratitude too much to ask?
00:34:16Nicky, congratulations on your first day.
00:34:24Do you have a problem?
00:34:25Do you have an offer?
00:34:27Ah, I see.
00:34:29You can date your ex, but Nicky can't move on, huh?
00:34:33Stay out of my marriage.
00:34:36What marriage?
00:34:37You wrote the divorce papers yourself.
00:34:43Charlie, please let me explain.
00:34:45You sabotaged my wife's experiment.
00:34:47I never approved of your position here.
00:34:49I made a terrible mistake leaving you.
00:34:53I just wanted to work near you to remind you of what we had.
00:34:57You two clearly have things to discuss.
00:35:04She's always hated me.
00:35:06You see how cruel she is?
00:35:09Charlie, don't leave me!
00:35:14Dr. Moorhead, your acceptance of our office is an honor.
00:35:18And your research on cellular regeneration is groundbreaking.
00:35:23Dr. Moorhead's paper on neural pathway reconstruction changed our entire approach to trauma recovery.
00:35:29Please let me apologize for earlier.
00:35:31Had I known, I...
00:35:32The rumors about my education are understandable.
00:35:35There's nothing published under my name.
00:35:37Ever since the Stockholm Institute recruited me,
00:35:39I used my mother's maiden name, Moorhead, to maintain privacy.
00:35:43Dr. Moorhead?
00:35:45The Dr. Moorhead?
00:35:46How did I not know my own wife?
00:35:49Well, really privileged to have you here.
00:35:51Regardless of what your name is.
00:35:54Hmm.
00:35:56Hmm.
00:35:57Hmm.
00:35:58Hmm.
00:35:59Hmm.
00:36:00Hmm.
00:36:01Hmm.
00:36:01Hmm.
00:36:01Hmm.
00:36:04The same accident that took mom left you like this.
00:36:09I've restarted my research, Uncle James.
00:36:12My focus is your condition now.
00:36:15I'm gonna wake you up.
00:36:17And when I do, I finally get answers to what really happened that day.
00:36:22She's doing what?
00:36:24Ah, keep watching her and report everything directly to me.
00:36:30What's happening?
00:36:31It's Nicky's research at the Onafrio Institute.
00:36:33She's working on her uncle's condition.
00:36:36James.
00:36:37Ted, if he wakes up and tells everyone what really happened that accident night.
00:36:48What's Dad planning now?
00:36:50A sudden apology dinner feels like a trap.
00:36:54Dad, you're not seriously giving her the house, are you?
00:36:57Of course not.
00:36:59Once her outburst is on camera, public opinion will force her out of the research institute.
00:37:03Dad, I don't want to move out.
00:37:06This is my home.
00:37:07Maggie, this house belongs to Nicky's mother.
00:37:10This is rightfully hers.
00:37:12That's right.
00:37:13And now that she's leaving Charlie, she'll need somewhere to live.
00:37:21Bravo.
00:37:22Stellar performance, Diane.
00:37:25How dare you speak to my mother like that?
00:37:27Get off of me!
00:37:32Maggie, see how hostile you are?
00:37:34You're offering to return the house, and this is...
00:37:37And you're still attacking us.
00:37:38Then hand over the deed.
00:37:40Right now.
00:37:41These things take time.
00:37:43Legal processes, uh...
00:37:44You never intended to give me anything.
00:37:47This is all a setup.
00:37:48Your mother will be ashamed of what you've become.
00:37:50Don't you dare talk about my mother.
00:37:53Everything you own.
00:37:55This house.
00:37:56Your position.
00:37:57Your wealth.
00:37:58It all came from her.
00:38:04Oh, Nicky.
00:38:11When did we become so distant?
00:38:13I didn't even know you returned to the research lab.
00:38:17After everything I've done for you.
00:38:19And this is how you repay us?
00:38:20You even changed your last name?
00:38:22Poor Charlie.
00:38:24Married a woman full of secrets.
00:38:26No wonder he wanted a divorce.
00:38:27I believe I warned you about how to treat my wife.
00:38:31Charlie, this is just a family discussion.
00:38:34A company's merger included a morality clause.
00:38:37Causing a public scandal with an illegitimate child
00:38:39clearly qualifies as a breach.
00:38:42Stop it now, Charlie.
00:38:43Wilson Industries can find another partner.
00:38:46Collaboration's finished.
00:38:47No, please.
00:38:48They would destroy us.
00:38:49They'll apologize to me.
00:38:50Diane.
00:38:51Maggie.
00:38:54I'm sorry, Nicky.
00:38:56I can't hear you.
00:39:00We apologize.
00:39:01Yes.
00:39:02Do you forgive us?
00:39:03We were wrong.
00:39:06We were wrong.
00:39:19Three years of gaslighting.
00:39:21Two years of stealing my inheritance.
00:39:23And now what?
00:39:25Five minutes of fake remorse is supposed to erase it all?
00:39:28Your apologies are as worthless as your promises.
00:39:32You can't manipulate someone who sees through all of your schemes.
00:39:39You can keep your fake apologies.
00:39:42I'll take what's mine through other channels.
00:39:46I'll take what's mine through.
00:39:48Let's see.
00:39:52Maggie, wait.
00:39:58I have something for you.
00:40:01Timons.
00:40:02How original.
00:40:03I've always hated your gifts.
00:40:06You never cared about what I truly wanted.
00:40:10Sir, three more investment groups have increased their funding by 20% since the news broke that Dr. Moorhead has
00:40:16joined the team.
00:40:19Now I understand this sudden support, these gestures.
00:40:24You found out who Dr. Moorhead really is, and suddenly your inconvenient wife becomes a valuable asset.
00:40:31Nikki, that's not fair.
00:40:32I never...
00:40:33Save it.
00:40:34I spent my whole life being used by men like you and my father.
00:40:38I despise you.
00:40:40I want nothing to do with you, your company, or your faint affection.
00:40:45Process the divorce papers.
00:40:48Immediately.
00:41:00How could Dr. Moorhead treat her own family like that?
00:41:04What can we expect?
00:41:06Someone treating her aunt's family like that?
00:41:09Such violent tendencies have no place in a research environment.
00:41:14Imagine what she'd do to colleagues who disagree with her.
00:41:17No wonder her ethics are questionable.
00:41:22Poor thing.
00:41:24Never had a mother's guidance.
00:41:26No one to teach her proper behavior.
00:41:31You hit me!
00:41:34Did you see that?
00:41:40Dr. Moorhead, this situation is out of our hands.
00:41:44Sir, that video was deliberately manipulated.
00:41:47My step-sister grabbed me first.
00:41:49They set up hidden cameras to provoke me.
00:41:51Objects are terrible.
00:41:53Board members are concerned.
00:41:56I'm asking you to step down as team lead until this all blows over.
00:42:09We refuse to work with someone so unstable and violent.
00:42:13Her behavior has created a hostile environment.
00:42:16Someone raised without proper parental guidance shouldn't be trusted with our research.
00:42:21Who knows what other unstable tendencies lurk beneath that facade.
00:42:26I think you should all hear something.
00:42:33Of course not.
00:42:34Once her heart bursts on camera, public opinion will force her out of the research institute.
00:42:42Ms. Dawson, I believe you were saying something about manipulation.
00:42:49I believe I'll keep my position.
00:42:52Unless anyone has any further objections.
00:42:59Your father's been backfired, but he won't stop there.
00:43:05Nikki, can I ask you something?
00:43:09Are you really going to give Charlie another chance?
00:43:11After everything?
00:43:13No.
00:43:15I once loved him, but he treated me like garbage.
00:43:18I finally broke and free from loving him.
00:43:20It was like a prison, Chris.
00:43:23So painful.
00:43:26So painful.
00:43:51Nicky, it's Charlie.
00:43:55About the divorce papers.
00:43:58You reconsidered.
00:44:01It was requested.
00:44:03Divorce agreement.
00:44:06Giving you what you wanted.
00:44:09Read them.
00:44:12Not even going to read it.
00:44:13I know you wouldn't try to cheat me.
00:44:18Chris will be thrilled.
00:44:34Goodbye, Nikki.
00:44:41I have news about your uncle's accident.
00:44:43The day your mother and uncle crashed, Ted had a heated argument with your mother.
00:44:49Witnesses, they heard shouting about divorce.
00:44:51Then that morning, Ted personally took her car for maintenance.
00:44:56When?
00:44:56No, he never handles car maintenance.
00:44:59The staff also said it was very unusual, but he insisted he would take the car himself.
00:45:03Are you saying the crash wasn't an accident?
00:45:08Only your uncle knows for sure.
00:45:10If he wakes up, then...
00:45:12He will.
00:45:13I'll make sure of it.
00:45:20These readings are promising.
00:45:22His brain activity has increased significantly.
00:45:26What does that mean?
00:45:27He's showing signs of potential consciousness.
00:45:35I don't care what it costs.
00:45:37James cannot wake up.
00:45:38Ever.
00:45:42The hospital maintains low security.
00:45:44Make it look natural.
00:45:57Hello?
00:45:58Hello, dear.
00:45:59I just wanted to let you know, I'll be going home tomorrow.
00:46:02And I wanted to thank you again for everything.

00:46:09You saved my life, dear girl.
00:46:12You'll always be family to me.
00:46:16Just for your grandmother, one day...
00:46:20You can take the floor.

00:46:29Whatever it takes.

00:57:38you
00:57:38i
00:57:39Hello?
00:57:41He's awake. Your uncle is awake.
00:57:44Uncle James.
00:57:47My little Nicky.
00:57:50How long?
00:57:52Almost seven years.
00:57:54Uncle James, I need to ask you something about the accident with Mom.
00:58:01It wasn't an accident.
00:58:03Elizabeth, she found out about Ted's mistress.
00:58:06She confronted him that morning.
00:58:07She was leaving him?
00:58:09With everything.
00:58:10The prenup was clear.
00:58:12Infidelity meant she kept all assets.
00:58:15Ted would have been left with nothing.
00:58:19I drove her to the lawyer, but on the way back, the brakes failed.
00:58:24That morning, I saw Ted taking her car for maintenance.
00:58:28Do you know where he took it?
00:58:30It was Morgan's Auto Shop on Westfield.
00:58:41What?
00:58:44No, it's gone.
00:58:46We've already averaged everything, but it's still not enough to buy controlling interest.
00:58:51Then find more to mortgage.
00:58:53Summerhouse.
00:58:55Your jewellery.
00:58:57Ted, there's nothing left.
00:58:59Damn it.
00:59:01We need those shares before James testifies.
00:59:06And what about these investment opportunities that you mentioned?
00:59:10Rare opportunity to acquire a significant amount of shares in the Wilson Industries.
00:59:16With your resources and my insider position, your son and my Maggie there.
00:59:23Seems like a perfect match.
00:59:30What a lovely gathering.
00:59:33Strange my invitation got lost.
00:59:36Nikki, this is a private function.
00:59:39In my house?
00:59:40I don't think so.
00:59:42As the legal owner of this property, I'm terminating your residency.
00:59:48Effective immediately.
00:59:50What are you talking about?
00:59:51I know you've mortgaged this house.
00:59:53Can't blame everything to maintain control of the company.
00:59:56Well, I've paid off those loans.
00:59:59This house is mine now.
01:00:00You have 48 hours to vacate.
01:00:03Leaving us homeless?
01:00:04Your own family?
01:00:06Family?
01:00:07Did you think of family when you tampered with my mother's car?
01:00:11When you forged her will?
01:00:13Your ungrateful little.
01:00:14After everything I've given you.
01:00:16You gave me nothing.
01:00:17Everything came from my mother.
01:00:19The woman you murdered.
01:00:25Everything came from my mother.
01:00:27The woman you murdered.
01:00:29How dare you?
01:00:33You've always been jealous of me.
01:00:35Jealous?
01:00:36Of someone wearing my clothes.
01:00:38And stealing my inheritance.
01:00:44I'm taking back what's mine.
01:00:49Ted.
01:00:50We need to reconsider our arrangement.
01:01:00Where are you going?
01:01:01To my sisters.
01:01:02You're finished, Ted.
01:01:03What?
01:01:03After everything I've given you?
01:01:05You have nothing left.
01:01:07Oh, don't you forget your role in this accident.
01:01:09It was you who...
01:01:09Oh, do shut up, Ted!
01:01:12Ma...
01:01:12Maggie?
01:01:16Maggie?
01:01:18Maggie?
01:01:19Maggie?
01:01:20Maggie?
01:01:22Maggie?
01:01:23Maggie?
01:01:24Maggie?
01:01:25Maggie?
01:01:27I heard you are investigating your mother's accident.
01:01:29Meet me.
01:01:30I have information.
01:01:37You said you have information about my mother.
01:01:40Maggie?
01:01:41First, let's clear the air between us.
01:01:44I know you resent me because of Charlie.
01:01:48Because...
01:01:48I was his first love.
01:01:50Is that what you think? People don't hate cockroaches because they're jealous of them.
01:01:56They hate them because they're disgusting pests.
01:02:04Don't contact me again.
01:02:11Enjoy the next hour before the drug kicks in.
01:02:19Make sure she doesn't get far.
01:02:37Well, something's wrong.
01:02:40Need some help?
01:02:41No, get off of me.
01:02:45No!
01:02:48Fuck!
01:03:13What did you do to her?
01:03:14Do?
01:03:16I'm just being a content friend.
01:03:18Your precious Nikki seems to have moved on rather quickly.
01:03:22You expect me to believe that?
01:03:24If you've hurt her in any way!
01:03:27Such accusations!
01:03:28I'm hurt, Charlie!
01:03:30Tell me the truth.
01:03:32If not, I'll make one phone call.
01:03:34And I'll have your father removed from every Don O'Frio board and contract!
01:03:48I'm hurt!
01:04:04I'm hurt!
01:04:09It's me. It's me.
01:04:11You're okay.
01:04:14You're okay.
01:04:20I'm so sorry.
01:04:24This is all my fault.
01:04:26Don't touch me.
01:04:32All you two with other women is your business.
01:04:35Just leave me out of it.
01:04:37Nikki, Sarah did this to you.
01:04:39Sarah's your true love, isn't she?
01:04:41Well, she's back now.
01:04:43You don't need to use me as your replacement anymore.
01:04:46No.
01:04:48I never loved Sarah.
01:04:50You were never anyone's replacement.
01:04:52I don't know who started those rumors, but they're lies.
01:04:55Please go.
01:04:56Nikki.
01:04:57Just go.
01:05:01I'll have someone check on you later.
01:05:11I think Charlie is finally going to propose to you.
01:05:15And it's about time, too, isn't it?
01:05:18My dear Charlie.
01:05:21Charlie, my dear boy.
01:05:23I have security footage.
01:05:30That could be anything.
01:05:32The police have the original.
01:05:33They're quite interested in attempted kidnapping and drugging charges.
01:05:37Surely we can resolve this matter privately.
01:05:40The Wilson girl is fine, isn't she?
01:05:42Her name is Dr. Nikki Moorhead.
01:05:43It was you who gave those rumors.
01:05:45Wasn't it?
01:05:46About Sarah being my first love and Nikki's some replacement?
01:05:49Effective immediately.
01:05:50Dawson Industries are removed from all Donofrio partnerships and contracts.
01:05:54You can't.
01:05:55We'll be ruined.
01:05:56You should have thought of that before.
01:05:57Your daughter committed multiple felonies.
01:06:02The police will be contacting you.
01:06:04I suggest good lawyers.
01:06:08Sarah!
01:06:09How could you do this to me?
01:06:14Oh.
01:06:15How is she?
01:06:16I'm sorry, Mr. Donofrio.
01:06:18Dr. Moorhead checked herself out this morning.
01:06:28Quarterly projections are quite strong, despite the recent distractions.
01:06:33Forgive my interruption, ladies and gentlemen.
01:06:37This here is our closed meeting.
01:06:39As shareholder, I have every right to be here.
01:06:44This company was built by my mother.
01:06:47Her will, which my father altered, still grants me 20% ownership.
01:06:54In light of new evidence regarding my mother's death, I'm calling for the immediate removal of Ted Wilson as CEO
01:07:01and board member.
01:07:02An ambitious play, but futile.
01:07:05As you can see here, I'll acquire Director Patterson's shares.
01:07:09Combined with my holdings, that's 40% of controlling interests.
01:07:15And my first action will be to remove this disruptive element from our company.
01:07:32I wouldn't do that if I were you.
01:07:41I wouldn't do that if I were you.
01:07:43This here is a Wilson industry meeting.
01:07:45You have no standing here.
01:07:46Actually, I do.
01:07:47As a shareholder.
01:07:49What nonsense is this?
01:07:51Mr. D'Onofrio has just acquired 21% of Wilson Industries' shares.
01:07:57Stock acquisition isn't your exclusive talent, Ted.
01:08:01My shares must make his 20 exceed your 40.
01:08:04Simple math.
01:08:05You can't do this!
01:08:06Actually, I already have.
01:08:08This company once belonged to Dr. Elizabeth Moorhead.
01:08:11In this time, it was returned to its rightful owner.
01:08:14I moved to remove Ted Wilson's position, effective immediately.
01:08:20Wait, wait.
01:08:22Let's make a deal.
01:08:23I can offer you exclusive contracts, offshore accounts.
01:08:26You know.
01:08:27Are you really bribing me in front of the entire board?
01:08:30Oh.
01:08:31Very reasonable.
01:08:32Tell me what you want.
01:08:33I don't want what you're offering.
01:08:35I don't want what you're offering.
01:08:43I don't want anything you're offering.
01:08:46You're divorced.
01:08:48Why are you doing this?
01:08:50Technically, I'm divorced.
01:08:52But I'm working to change that.
01:08:55I'm going to win her back.
01:08:58Father, just drop it.
01:09:00Don't try to cover up your involvement in my mother's accident.
01:09:03Or try to steal what belongs to me.
01:09:06Accident?
01:09:07What's accident?
01:09:09Ted, what's she talking about?
01:09:11This is absurd.
01:09:12They're making wild accusations without a single shred of proof.
01:09:19James?
01:09:21You're awake?
01:09:22For three days now.
01:09:24The day of the crash, my sister told me she planned to divorce you.
01:09:28The prenup would have left you with nothing.
01:09:30This is preposterous.
01:09:32You have no evidence.
01:09:34Actually, there is.
01:09:44Actually, there is.
01:10:00You sabotaged her car, Ted.
01:10:02You murdered my sister.
01:10:03I want no part of this.
01:10:05This is doctored footage.
01:10:06They're trying to frame me.
01:10:09Ted Wilson?
01:10:10What's this?
01:10:11You're under arrest for the murder of Elizabeth Wilson
01:10:13and the attempted murder of James Moorhead.
01:10:18Hey, you're a grateful bitch.
01:10:20Everything I built,
01:10:22you have the right to remain silent.
01:10:30Company returns to its rightful owner now.
01:10:48Congratulations.
01:10:50I knew you could do it.
01:10:53Thanks for your help.
01:10:54I, um,
01:10:56I couldn't have done it without you.
01:11:02I hurt you so bad.
01:11:05You can change like this.
01:11:08Give up on us.
01:11:12I know that when someone turns away,
01:11:14it's hard to win them back.
01:11:15I'll always be by your side.
01:11:19I love you, Nikki.
01:11:22Truly.
01:11:24I see your kindness,
01:11:26determination,
01:11:28courage,
01:11:29and
01:11:30I want to always
01:11:31be with you.
01:11:38Whatever difficulties you face,
01:11:40I want to protect you.
01:11:43Maybe
01:11:43I should give him another chance.
01:11:59I love you, Nikki.
01:12:01I love you, Nikki.
01:12:02I love you, Nikki.
01:12:04I love you, Nikki.
01:12:06I love you, Nikki.
01:12:06I love you, Nikki.
01:12:06I love you, Nikki.
01:12:07I love you, Nikki.
01:12:07I love you, Nikki.
01:12:08I love you, Nikki.
