00:30Last month, Julian's secretary had run up a huge bill on his card.
00:34I'd frozen hers.
00:36A terrible realization hit me.
00:39Was this Julian's revenge for her?
00:42Leather shoes clicked at the entrance.
00:44Julian's arm wrapped tightly around Amelia.
00:47A crowd of socialites followed behind.
00:50She was smirking at me.
00:51You love watching people unable to pay, don't you?
00:54Well, now you get to experience it yourself.
00:56How are you gonna pay when you can't?
01:01I heard she grew up poor and only caught Mr. Pierce's eye by luck.
01:06Now her husband brings his new girl to watch her get humiliated.
01:11This is what you get when you sleep your way to the top just for being pretty.
01:14How long does a woman's youth really last?
01:16Once a billionaire finds a younger toy, her luxury days end.
01:20Just as I thought, it was a trap.
01:23To avenge his little secretary.
01:26Don't worry, Amelia.
01:28However Serena humiliated you, I'll make her pay ten times over.
01:33Thank you, Julian.
01:34She grabbed an expensive red wine bottle and smashed it at my feet.
01:38You useless bitch.
01:39Julian's paying for me now.
01:41I can smash all I want.
01:42But you?
01:43You're done.
01:44Don't glare like you want to kill me.
01:46If you have money, just pay and leave.
01:49Anyone who helps Serena pays the price.
01:52They go against me.
01:53Against the Pierce family.
01:58Mr. Pierce means business.
01:59He loves his secretary more than his wife.
02:01I thought it was just when he means it.
02:02With his threat, who dare help her?
02:06I snapped.
02:08Julian Pierce!
02:09Are you really humiliating me over this cheap trot?
02:16Julian scoffed.
02:17He slapped me hard across the face.
02:19That's right.
02:20I stared at him, utterly stunned.
02:22He pulled out a handkerchief,
02:23wiped the hand he'd just used to slap me.
02:26Three years of marriage.
02:27We were called the perfect couple.
02:29Once, he'd chased me endlessly.
02:31At our wedding, he swore loyalty.
02:33Promised never to betray me.
02:35Look at us now.
02:36Three years.
02:37All vows.
02:38All memories.
02:39Torn to shreds by his cold cruelty.
02:41Just like they said,
02:43you're nothing but a pretty face married to money.
02:45No dignity at all.
02:47You knew how much I dole on my secretary.
02:50But you still pushed your luck.
02:53You clearly don't know your place.
02:56Serena,
02:56if you can't pay this bill today,
02:59I'll have the manager strip you naked and throw you out.
03:02Mr. Pierce is ruthless,
03:04stripping his own wife just for his new girl.
03:05She won't be his wife much longer.
03:06After tonight, she's nobody.
03:08Let's shut up and watch the show.
03:12My face burned.
03:14I had no money.
03:15Only the haute couture dress I was wearing.
03:18Even worse, my phone was dead.
03:20Then I realized Julian planned every detail of this trap.
03:24It's getting late, Serena.
03:25The restaurant wants payment so they can close.
03:28Don't tell me you have no money.
03:30Oh, what are you going to do?
03:32If you can't pay, they'll hold you.
03:34Just like you did to me.
03:37Amelia pulled out a slim cigarette and lit it.
03:39She blew smoke right into my face.
03:41Looking at her arrogant expression,
03:43I raised my hand to slap her.
03:45Serena, stop it right now!
03:47Julian quickly ordered his bodyguards
03:49They shoved me hard to the ground.
03:51I glared at him, eyes red with rage.
03:55What?
03:56So you can hurt others?
03:58But they can't fight back?
03:59The Pierce groups rise.
04:01Three years, almost vertical.
04:03Everyone called it Julian's genius.
04:05No one knew about the calls I'd made.
04:07The doors I'd opened.
04:09Even the city's underworld had given the Pierce's a wide berth.
04:12I am the sole heir to the Sinclair family.
04:16The most powerful of the East Coast's four legacy families.
04:21I gave you your chance, Julian.
04:23Now?
04:23Time to collect some interest.
04:25I never expected a man's heart could change so fast.
04:29Julian, are you really going to make me leave this restaurant in shame?
04:33Of course.
04:34Do you think I did all this for nothing?
04:36Amelia stepped forward, punched me hard in the face.
04:40You have no right to freeze my card.
04:42Either you get locked up for the bill,
04:43or you lose everything you have.
04:45One way you keep your dignity,
04:47the other way, you don't.
04:49Hurry up and choose.
04:50I can't wait.
04:51I clenched my fists and looked at Julian.
04:54All love in my eyes turned to cold ice.
04:56Fine.
04:58If this is what you want,
05:00the Pierce family's bankruptcy is all on you.
05:06Has she lost her mind?
05:08Does she think she's some hidden billionaire?
05:13She's gone crazy.
05:16Julian glared at me in disgust.
05:18He picked up a plate and threw it at me.
05:22Stop talking nonsense.
05:24Bankrupt my family?
05:26Are you even worthy?
05:28You should worry about surviving tonight.
05:31Manager!
05:32The manager stepped forward with bouncers.
05:35He looked down at me coldly.
05:38Mrs. Pierce?
05:39Cash or someone covering the tab?
05:41Out of professionalism,
05:42he hadn't humiliated me fully.
05:45I scanned the room.
05:46I finally locked eyes with a female business partner I often worked with.
05:52Serena, stay away!
05:53I don't dare pay for you!
05:55Don't be afraid.
05:56I'm not asking you to pay.
05:58Just borrow me your phone.
06:00She's still putting on a show.
06:02Who in this city dares bring her money?
06:07Let her call.
06:08Give her 30 minutes.
06:10No money by then?
06:12She'll regret ever stepping foot in here.
06:16Following Amelia's lead,
06:18the business partner handed me her phone.
06:20Half an hour.
06:21Bring cash.
06:22With 10 minutes left,
06:23Amelia lost her patience and stood up.
06:26I'm so stupid!
06:27She doesn't have any friends!
06:29Manager,
06:30have your guys break her legs first.
06:32No one dares stand up to the Pierce family.
06:34Stop wasting time!
06:36Wait.
06:37There are still 10 minutes.
06:40Bullshit!
06:41If I don't have the money,
06:42I'll crawl and bark like a dog.
06:45You said it.
06:46Don't forget.
06:47So what if I did?
06:49The whole place is a witness.
06:51This is better than a movie!
06:53Finally!
06:54She's getting what she deserves.
06:56As the 10 minutes neared,
06:58a fat man reached out to groat me.
07:03Don't touch me!
07:08Look at her,
07:09Mr. Pierce.
07:10Can we take her now?
07:17Why not?
07:20She can't pay.
07:22Do whatever you want with her.
07:24Then I'm going first!
07:26Men lunged at me.
07:28Don't touch me.
07:30Pin her down.
07:31Hold her tight.
07:33Let the gentleman handle it.
07:34I looked at Julian.
07:35My heart turned to ice.
07:37We were still married.
07:38yet he let men defile me
07:40right in front of him.
07:42He didn't care.
07:43Don't look at me like that.
07:45I won't help you.
07:46As long as Amelia is happy,
07:47that's all that matters.
07:50Come here, beautiful.
07:51I'll pay your tab.
07:52No, no, come with me.
07:53I'm richer.
07:56You dare laugh at me?
07:57Soon,
07:58you'll all be the joke.
08:00Strip her!
08:01Time's up!
08:02Not another second for her!
08:04Heavily armed bodyguards
08:06in black suits flooded in.
08:08They took down Julian's guards
08:09in seconds.
08:11Right behind them
08:12was Victoria Thorne,
08:13CEO
08:14of the city's
08:15biggest investment bank.
08:17Mrs. Singlaire,
08:19I brought the funds.
08:20I hope I'm not late.
08:21Julian,
08:22Amelia,
08:23everyone jumped up,
08:24their faces twisted
08:25in confusion.
08:27Mrs. Thorne,
08:28what are you doing here?
08:30You're a VIP.
08:31How could Serena
08:32summon you?
08:33Amelia rubbed her eyes,
08:35convinced she was
08:35hallucinating.
08:37It's really
08:38Victoria Thornton?
08:39Victoria ignored them all,
08:41walked straight to me.
08:43Mrs. Sinclair,
08:44Mr. Sterling
08:44sent me to fix this first.
08:46He's on his way.
08:48She noticed my torn dress
08:50and disheveled state.
08:51her head snapped
08:52toward the crowd.
08:53Who dared disrespect
08:54Mrs. Sinclair?
08:55The room went dead silent.
08:57The Pierces were
08:58the city's richest.
09:03But Victoria's empire
09:05could crush them overnight.
09:07Overnight,
09:08when the Pierces
09:09claimed the city's
09:10top spot,
09:11they had no idea.
09:13The secret force
09:14behind them
09:15was the trophy wife
09:16they looked down on.
09:17I did it because
09:18Julian once promised,
09:19I'll be the city's
09:20richest man
09:20so my wife
09:21can spend
09:22whatever she wants.
09:24Now everything's
09:26changed.
09:26Faced with
09:27Victoria's fury,
09:28no one dared
09:29seek.
09:29Amelia's face
09:30turned pale,
09:31lips trembling.
09:32Serena?
09:33She really got
09:34someone to bring money?
09:35Our bet still
09:36stood.
09:37I paid the bill.
09:39No!
09:40This can't be real!
09:41How's the legendary
09:42Victoria Thorn
09:43friends with her?
09:44Did you order
09:45this humiliation
09:46of Mrs. Sinclair?
09:47Julian rushed
09:48to support her.
09:49Don't fear.
09:50I'm here.
09:51Emboldened by Julian,
09:53Amelia steadied herself.
09:54That's right.
09:55Julian's the city's
09:56richest man.
09:57I fear you,
09:59but Julian doesn't.
10:00I don't know
10:00your connection
10:01to Victoria Thorn,
10:02but let's be clear.
10:03In this city,
10:04the Pierces
10:05call the shots.
10:06Miss Thorn,
10:07back off.
10:08This is family
10:09business.
10:10None of your concern.
10:12I beat you
10:12to the top once.
10:13I can run you
10:14out of this city
10:15for good.
10:16Big words,
10:17Mr. Pierce.
10:18If not for
10:19Miss Sinclair's
10:19respect,
10:20your sad little
10:21Pierce family
10:21would have been
10:22eaten by syndicates
10:23years ago.
10:24You owe her
10:25everything.
10:26Blind fool,
10:27you just threw
10:27away your blessing.
10:29Julian scoffed loud,
10:31refused to believe
10:32a word.
10:33I was exhausted.
10:34I had no desire
10:35to bicker with them.
10:36The bills paid
10:37now, Amelia.
10:39remember your vow?
10:41Let's not pick sides
10:42yet.
10:42We don't know
10:42who's the final boss,
10:43but we can enjoy
10:43the show.
10:44Exactly.
10:44Work is stressful
10:45enough.
10:45A front road seat
10:46to this drama
10:46is priceless.
10:47You cheap bitch!
10:48Don't push your luck!
10:50So what if I said it?
10:51What are you gonna do?
10:54Julian's in charge here.
10:56You think Victoria's
10:57backing you?
10:58I'll break my promise?
10:59I spit on you!
11:06Julian smiled wide at her,
11:08reached out,
11:09stroked her cheek,
11:10treated her like a treasure.
11:12Victoria frowned,
11:13shot a sharp look
11:14at a guard.
11:15The guard moved fast,
11:17one brutal punch.
11:18Amelia dropped
11:19at my feet
11:20like a dog.
11:21The guard growled.
11:22Give your word,
11:23the galled.
11:23Follow Mrs. Sinclair's order.
11:25Bite the meat!
11:26Crawl out barking!
11:27Another guard brought
11:28a silver platter,
11:29raw, bloody beef on it.
11:30Amelia gagged
11:31at the sight.
11:32Julian!
11:33Save me!
11:35I'd rather die
11:36than crawl like this!
11:42Julie!
11:43Julian!
11:45Her screams
11:45made Julian furious.
11:47Get her back!
11:49Victoria's guard
11:50slapped with Julian.
11:51Seconds later,
11:52Julian's men
11:53groaned on the floor.
11:54Normal bouncers
11:55stood no chance
11:56against Victoria's
11:57trained operatives.
12:00Amelia's face paled.
12:01Sweat rolled
12:02down her forehead.
12:05Victoria Thalen!
12:06You overstepped
12:07your bounds!
12:09I'll make you
12:09disappear from
12:10this city overnight!
12:12Victoria paid
12:13no mind to his threat.
12:14I await your order,
12:15Mrs. Sinclair.
12:17What's wrong?
12:18Can't handle
12:19a taste of your own medicine?
12:21Staring straight
12:22at Julian,
12:23I turn to Victoria.
12:24Have your lawyers
12:25draft a divorce agreement.
12:26Now.
12:28Serena,
12:29you're ridiculous!
12:30I'm the one
12:31initiating divorce!
12:32Who do you think
12:33you are?
12:34Sign the papers,
12:35then you'll know
12:35if I have the right.
12:37Oh, and...
12:38Your father's coming.
12:40He'll teach you a lesson.
12:41Be quiet!
12:42Why would he teach me
12:43a lesson because of you?
12:46You're bluffing.
12:47I don't know your trick
12:48with Victoria,
12:49but she can't
12:50protect you
12:51forever.
12:54As we spoke,
12:55Victoria's legal team
12:56arrived with the divorce papers.
12:58I signed calmly
12:59and handed the pen
13:00to Julian.
13:00He signed
13:01without hesitation.
13:02Since the divorce
13:03is finalized,
13:04I have no obligation
13:04to continue your empire.
13:06In 30 minutes,
13:07I will give the order.
13:08The Pierce Corporee's
13:10stocks will plummet
13:11until you are
13:11completely bankrupt.
13:18Serena,
13:19done bluffing?
13:20You stalled earlier.
13:21Now someone paid your bill,
13:23you're bluffing again?
13:23You think Victoria
13:24can help you
13:25bankrupt us?
13:26Do you know why
13:27she's only second
13:28in this city?
13:28Because the Pierce
13:29crush her.
13:33Serena,
13:34for the sake of our past,
13:35I'll leave you
13:36with the last bit of dignity.
13:38The bill has been paid.
13:40Kneel down.
13:41Apologize to Amelia.
13:42and this matter
13:43will be dropped.
13:44I looked at Julian
13:44with disgust.
13:45Amelia hadn't even
13:46crawled out yet.
13:47He wanted me
13:48to kneel to her.
13:49I checked my watch,
13:50let out a sharp scoff.
13:51Call your father.
13:52Ask if Pierce stuck.
13:54He pulled out his phone.
13:56Before he dialed,
13:57the restaurant doors
13:58flew open.
13:59You fool!
14:00How could I raise
14:01such a foolish boy?
14:03Serena,
14:04you hid it so well.
14:05You're Serena Sinclair,
14:06sole heir of the Sinclairs.
14:08Julian's eyes blew wide.
14:10He grabbed my arm,
14:11frantic.
14:11Serena Sinclair?
14:14Your real name
14:15is Serena Sinclair?
14:17The reclusive
14:18East Coast
14:18Serena Sinclair?
14:19I shook off
14:20his grip coldly.
14:21Victoria handed me
14:22a sterilized wipe.
14:23I cleaned my arm.
14:24If he wasn't crazy,
14:26he remembered,
14:26an hour ago,
14:27he'd wiped his hand
14:28with a handkerchief.
14:29Dad,
14:30what's going on?
14:32That's exactly
14:33who she is.
14:34You idiot.
14:36You offended her
14:37for this cheap slut.
14:38Oh my god,
14:39it's real,
14:40all real.
14:41Serena,
14:42is Serena Sinclair?
14:43We mocked her,
14:44called her trash,
14:45we're doomed.
14:45Desperate,
14:46terrified cries
14:47filled the air.
14:48Everyone prayed,
14:49begging I'd forget
14:50their faces,
14:51their cruelty,
14:52but I'd said it before.
14:53Who laughs at my expense
14:54will become the joke.
14:55Richard moved first.
14:56He lunged,
14:57kicking Amelia hard.
14:58You think you can
14:59challenge Miss Sinclair?
15:01You tried to tear
15:03her dress?
15:04Made her crawl
15:05and eat raw meat?
15:07Do you even know
15:08what you've done?
15:09She looked to Julian,
15:11eyes desperate,
15:12begging.
15:13The only reason
15:13the pierce rose to the top
15:15is because of
15:15Mrs. Sinclair.
15:17I didn't know at first,
15:18until I saw her
15:19at the East Coast Summit,
15:21sitting at the head table,
15:22leading billionaires.
15:24She's a titan,
15:25and you,
15:26you ruined it all
15:27for a useless fling.
15:28Then Richard checked
15:29his phone.
15:30His face went pale.
15:32Serena, please.
15:33Pierce Corp stock
15:34is crashing.
15:35I told you,
15:37I can lift you up,
15:38and I can drag you
15:39back into the mud.
15:40Richard slapped
15:41Julian hard.
15:42What are you
15:42standing there for?
15:43Kneel!
15:44Beg Mrs. Sinclair
15:45for mercy.
15:46You want to kill
15:47our family?
15:49Julian snapped
15:50out of his trance.
15:51He turned,
15:52kicked Amelia
15:53hard in the face.
15:54He screamed.
15:55Julian's remaining
15:56guards rushed over,
15:57pinned Amelia
15:58to the floor.
15:59Amelia sobbed
16:00hysterically,
16:00teared.
16:01Julian!
16:02Let me go!
16:03It wasn't my idea!
16:05You wanted to help
16:05me get revenge!
16:06Julian roared.
16:07Shut up!
16:09You seduced me!
16:11Julian Pierce,
16:12you coward!
16:13You think punishing me
16:14will make her forgive you?
16:16Delusional!
16:17Your family's finished!
16:18she was right!
16:19Even if Julian punished her,
16:21I'd never let the pierces
16:22off the hook.
16:23But father and son
16:24didn't get it.
16:25No!
16:26She's just angry!
16:27She loves me!
16:27She hid her identity
16:28to stay with me three years!
16:30She loves me!
16:31What are you waiting for?
16:32She won't crawl?
16:33Break her legs!
16:35Beat this bitch
16:36until she does!
16:36They kicked and punched
16:37Amelia hard,
16:38targeted her joints
16:40so she couldn't stand.
16:41Amelia's screams
16:42pierced the restaurant.
16:43The onlookers
16:44shrank back in terror.
16:45I'll crawl!
16:46I'll bite the meat
16:47and crawl!
16:47Make them stop!
16:48Sobbing,
16:49broken,
16:50she bit the raw,
16:51bloody beef,
16:52crawled out the restaurant doors.
16:53Amelia gone.
16:54I got ready to leave.
16:55My dear wife,
16:56where are you going?
16:57I punished Amelia.
16:59I'll never let anyone
17:00humiliate you again.
17:02Have some self-respect.
17:03Stop calling me your wife.
17:05We just signed divorce papers.
17:07Forgot?
17:09Next time we meet,
17:10address me properly.
17:11I shook off his hand.
17:13The restaurant doors opened again.
17:14My childhood friend
17:15and former fiancé,
17:17Sebastian Sterling,
17:18strolled in.
17:20Serena.
17:22Look,
17:22he called,
17:23glaring at Julian with disdain.
17:25This is the guy
17:25you turned down
17:26my marriage for?
17:27Sebastian's arrival
17:28triggered another
17:29collective gasp.
17:30They'd never seen
17:31my true face,
17:32but everyone knew
17:32Sebastian Sterling,
17:34one of the world's
17:34richest young billionaires.
17:36Tall,
17:36striking,
17:37old money elegance
17:39oozing off him.
17:40Next to Julian,
17:41the contrast was brutal.
17:42Sebastian's appearance
17:43hit Julian with
17:44crushing panic.
17:45Divorced?
17:46After everything he'd done,
17:48winning me back
17:48was impossible.
17:49Julian choked out.
17:51Serena,
17:52who is he?
17:55Who am I?
17:56I'm her fiancé.
17:58Now that you're divorced,
17:59I won't let her marry
18:01anyone else.
18:03I shook my head
18:04with a helpless smile.
18:05That was Sebastian.
18:07Straightforward,
18:07arrogant,
18:08never hiding his heart.
18:09I-
18:10Let's go.
18:10I haven't seen
18:11my parents in years.
18:13Serena,
18:13what about the Pierce Corp?
18:14What am I supposed to do?
18:16I paused,
18:17didn't turn around.
18:17Exactly what I said earlier.
18:19As for you,
18:20we're divorced.
18:20Your fate,
18:21none of my business.
18:22Julian finally broke down.
18:24A choked sob
18:24escaped him.
18:25if I hadn't humiliated you
18:27for Amelia.
18:28If I'd stopped them halfway,
18:30would you have forgiven me?
18:32If I wasn't Serena Sinclair,
18:34would you have realized
18:35you were wrong?
18:36Would you have punished her?
18:38I didn't stay
18:38another second.
18:39With Sebastian by my side,
18:41I walked out
18:41into the night.
18:42tonight.
18:42Will you feel as if at the next
