00:00:03Breaking news. Harper Enterprise is under a coordinated short attack. In the past hour
00:00:09alone, the conglomerate has lost over a billion dollars in ARC's valuation.
00:00:23I need you to buy the stock, alright?
00:00:28This isn't some random dip. Whoever's shorting us came prepared. They're tearing us apart.
00:00:32We can't hold the line. We're about to become the laughingstock of Wall Street.
00:00:36No, no, we're not finished. We still have an ace in the hole.
00:00:43The boundaries between the universes are coming undone.
00:00:48Julian, we need you. Again. Shit.
00:00:52We need your help. Give me a sec.
00:01:01Hey, Mr. Griffin, how you doing? Good, good, yeah. I just need to ask for a little favor.
00:01:12Julian, you saved my ass last time. I owe you. I'm moving liquidity to Harper now.
00:01:19Great.
00:01:24The stock price is recovering. How is that possible?
00:01:27Did Mr. Clark just fix this with a few calls?
00:01:30Julian, what would Harper do without you?
00:01:34Julian, Damien's assistant called. Called in all hands. All department leads. Conference room in ten minutes.
00:01:40Chairman's orders.
00:01:41Why would Damien call in the meeting? He despises you.
00:01:46Watch your back.
00:01:48.
00:02:13Today, Damien successfully
00:02:16neutralized the short attack against Harper and helped push our stock back up.
00:02:21Let's thank him for his outstanding contribution.
00:02:29Since when does Damien know how to take over from a hole in the ground?
00:02:32He must have stole this wing from someone else.
00:02:34Remember what he did to Anthony from investments? Damien took credit for his
00:02:38deal. Anthony pushed back and Damien used this pool with Serena to get him fired.
00:02:47Hello? Is there a problem? Because I'm pretty sure I saved all your asses from the fire,
00:02:54the least that every single one of you can do.
00:02:55Damien.
00:02:58Of course. Questions? I'd be happy to share my strategies to help save your livelihoods.
00:03:11Julian, the company just went through a crisis and you're up here gaming?
00:03:16Keep sharing. I'm listening.
00:03:21This conference room isn't your goddamn gaming lounge!
00:03:25Wait, I'm sorry everyone. I forgot. You're just the resident good for nothing. My strategies,
00:03:31you probably couldn't comprehend them, let alone ask a decent goddamn question.
00:03:39Well, since you're so keen on getting my contribution, let's start with a question.
00:03:44Which funds were behind the short attack? And what was their distinct objective? And what specifically was their entry strategy?
00:03:50Doesn't matter. And what matters is that I stopped.
00:03:53You can't even name the enemy?
00:03:55Alright, fine. Next question.
00:03:57Which firms did you guys recruit as white knights? And what preferential terms did you promise them
00:04:01in exchange for the capital injection?
00:04:03Well...
00:04:05Well...
00:04:08Well...
00:04:08Well, you can't even name the basics. Alright. So you certainly have no idea how to stand up a cross
00:04:14-functional war room,
00:04:15the countermeasures for a potential proxy fight, or which SEC clauses could be used to threaten the attackers.
00:04:23Let's be real. You are nothing but a glory hound who steals credit and bullies anyone who sees video.
00:04:40You, a useless, game-addicted fucking loser, dare to question me?
00:04:45You know what, Clark? You're fucking fired!
00:04:48Now get your shit and get the fuck out now!
00:04:59You hear that, Dad? I guess the verdict is, get the fuck out.
00:05:06Understood.
00:05:07Now, the hearing's not enough. I want you to tell Grandpa to get me out of this company. Now.
00:05:16You took our family's market cap and raised it to three trillion dollars.
00:05:21You proved everything that needs to be proved.
00:05:24Now, uh, time to think about your marriage.
00:05:27Harper's, uh, old friends, good staff, you know?
00:05:31Grandpa, I've never even met Serena Harper.
00:05:34What you're talking about is marrying me off to some stranger.
00:05:36Feelings can grow, brat. Our families go way back.
00:05:40Your marriage will definitely be a happy one.
00:05:43My life, my choice.
00:05:45Look, when it comes to choosing my partner, I want to make sure that-
00:05:47Enough!
00:05:48Oh, that's it.
00:05:49You're going to do this.
00:05:51I've already arranged everything.
00:05:53You're starting with the Harper Family Company today.
00:05:55Go work with Serena.
00:05:57And date her properly, hmm?
00:06:02You'll refuse.
00:06:04Okay.
00:06:05Nurse, Doctor, I'm checking out.
00:06:07My own grandson won't listen.
00:06:09What's the point?
00:06:09Okay.
00:06:10Let the heart attack take me now.
00:06:12Okay, all right.
00:06:12I'll go.
00:06:14I know what I'm asking.
00:06:17For years, you've carried this family on your back.
00:06:21We have more now than we ever was.
00:06:23The Harper's never in trouble.
00:06:25We do not abandon our own.
00:06:29Use that brilliant head of yours.
00:06:32Enough of them.
00:06:33Please, for me.
00:06:35Fine.
00:06:37I'll do it.
00:06:39I hear you.
00:06:47For six months, Grandpa, I did what you asked, using every resource, every contact to help her.
00:06:53I pulled Harper Enterprise from the brink of bankruptcy and made it soar.
00:06:56I made Serena Harper the queen of this city's business world.
00:06:59And for what?
00:07:01So she could give my triumphs and victories to that sycophant Damien?
00:07:05It's time to come home.
00:07:12You asked for my opinion and you couldn't handle it.
00:07:16So...
00:07:16Pathetic.
00:07:17I said you're fired.
00:07:18Get your shit and get the fuck out of my door.
00:07:21I heard you.
00:07:22I'm waiting for my grandfather to give me the okay and then I'm gone.
00:07:25I said no!
00:07:26Or else I'm gonna call security and you're gonna drag your ass out.
00:07:29Suit yourself.
00:07:31Julian, this is Harper Enterprise, not your family's playground.
00:07:36Your grandfather has no authority here.
00:07:39You will leave.
00:07:40Now, do not disrupt this company any further.
00:07:43Serena, is that really the best play you want to make here?
00:07:46I will not repeat it.
00:07:47And do not force me to make a scene.
00:07:49You know what, Serena?
00:07:51Don't waste your breath on this piece of trash.
00:07:58You!
00:07:59Don't push your luck, Clark.
00:08:00The only reason why you got your foot in the goddamn door in the first place
00:08:03is because of your dusty fucking engagement to Serena.
00:08:06And you have the audacity to act all high and mighty?
00:08:09You're fucking nothing.
00:08:11You're a little trust fund, entitled piece of shit baby.
00:08:14I mean, even your Beyonce is telling you to get lost.
00:08:16Why don't you do yourself a goddamn favor and get lost before I fucking-
00:08:20More what?
00:08:28You broke it.
00:08:29You broke my teeth.
00:08:31You know how much this costs, you fucking asshole?
00:08:32A hundred thousand dollars!
00:08:37We lost your balance.
00:08:39Maybe work on your core street.
00:08:40Julian, that is enough.
00:08:42Disrupting proceedings?
00:08:43Assault?
00:08:44Destruction of property?
00:08:46As CEO of Harper Enterprise, I'm terminating your employment.
00:08:49Effective immediately.
00:08:51Now gather your things and leave the premises.
00:08:53Serena, he broke my watch.
00:08:54The gift you got me for my birthday.
00:08:56He has to pay for it.
00:08:57Okay, you got two options, asshole.
00:08:59Either pay up, or I swear you're gonna rot in jail.
00:09:05Fine.
00:09:07I'll pay.
00:09:09Is it a hundred thousand dollars?
00:09:10What?
00:09:10One hundred thousand dollars?
00:09:12It's a million.
00:09:13A million for that.
00:09:14It's a gift from Serena.
00:09:16It's priceless.
00:09:17A million dollars being generous.
00:09:18You can fucking ask anyone in this room, huh?
00:09:20A CEO's gift does carry sentimental value.
00:09:23He does have a point card.
00:09:24You break it, you buy it.
00:09:26That's the rule.
00:09:27Though on your salary, it might take a few lifetimes.
00:09:35Well, you gonna wire me the money?
00:09:38Or are you as broke as you look?
00:09:40And if so, you can crawl out of here and I'll knock a few grand off the total for you.
00:09:46So what if you're Serena's Beyonce?
00:09:49Look at her now.
00:09:50She won't lift a finger for you, useless coward.
00:09:54A million dollars.
00:09:55That's the final offer?
00:09:57What do you mean?
00:10:02Hi, I need a million dollars brought to the main conference room at Harper headquarters.
00:10:16I need a million dollars brought to the main conference room at Harper headquarters.
00:10:23You just called for a million dollars in cash?
00:10:26Like a stakeout?
00:10:27What's next?
00:10:28A private army?
00:10:29Alright, Julian.
00:10:30The charade ends now.
00:10:31Leave the company and you won't have to pay for the watch.
00:10:33But our family's engagement is over.
00:10:37We are done.
00:10:39You sure?
00:10:40Whoa, whoa.
00:10:41You heard that, Julian?
00:10:42Your engagement's over.
00:10:43Now get out before I-
00:10:44Bro, get your hands off me!
00:10:49Put your fucking hands on me.
00:10:51You know what?
00:10:52I'm gonna wipe that smug fucking look off your face!
00:10:58Enough!
00:11:03Mr. Brooks.
00:11:07That's David Brooks, president of Harvey View Bank.
00:11:10What's a Wall Street titan doing on a conference room?
00:11:12Do you think it has to do with the hundred million loan?
00:11:14It can't be.
00:11:15That amount isn't worth Mr. Brooks' personal involvement.
00:11:19Mr. Clark.
00:11:20The one million.
00:11:22As requested.
00:11:30I'm shaking, I'm broken, we stand tall.
00:11:43What?
00:11:46Mr. Brooks.
00:11:47Personally delivering cash?
00:11:49To Julian?
00:11:50Wait, the money is...
00:11:52It's real?
00:11:54Wait...
00:11:54Delivered by Mr. Brooks?
00:11:55I mean...
00:11:56Wait, who are you?
00:12:00What?
00:12:01Much appreciated.
00:12:01You can just leave it on the table.
00:12:09Mr. Brooks.
00:12:10Sir.
00:12:11We are so honored by your visit.
00:12:14My grandfather, he speaks of you often.
00:12:16I'm sure he'd love to get a round of golf scheduled with you sometime.
00:12:20Mr. Clark, is there anything else you require?
00:12:24My resources are available, you dispose them.
00:12:26No, thank you.
00:12:27You can go down.
00:12:28Of course.
00:12:36A company where executives throw chairs during a meeting?
00:12:41Unprofessional.
00:12:42I'm suspending the hundred million dollar deal.
00:12:44We'll reassess when there's adult supervision.
00:12:47Yes, sir.
00:12:49Mr. Brooks, I...
00:12:53Damien messed up such a huge loan.
00:12:55Let's see him explain this to the chairman.
00:12:57The chairman will have his head.
00:12:59This is all your fault, alright?
00:13:01You gotta fix this.
00:13:02You call him back here and get that loan reinstated or I swear I'm gonna...
00:13:05You're the one that pissed off Mr. Brooks, not me.
00:13:08As for us...
00:13:12One million.
00:13:12In full.
00:13:13Which makes this watch...
00:13:19It's mine.
00:13:21You arrogant.
00:13:22Son of a bitch!
00:13:27I bet this is all the money that you have, isn't it?
00:13:28I bet you had to sell your house to scrape this together, you fucking loser.
00:13:36But it's all mine now.
00:13:38Yeah, sure.
00:13:38The debt for the watch is settled.
00:13:40But can we talk about compensation for my laptop?
00:13:42That useless piece of junk, how much could that possibly be worth?
00:13:46I don't know, maybe about...
00:13:48A hundred million?
00:13:49A hundred million dollars!
00:13:54For a laptop?
00:13:55Have you lost your mind?
00:13:59A hundred million.
00:14:00For a laptop.
00:14:02Julian.
00:14:02The law requires compensation for actual value.
00:14:05What you're committing is extortion.
00:14:08That's illegal!
00:14:09So, him extorting me for a million was legal then, right?
00:14:12By the way, where was your sound legal advice two minutes ago?
00:14:15Huh?
00:14:16That's a kisser.
00:14:17Enough!
00:14:18Julian.
00:14:20You know, I know you think you're right.
00:14:22What?
00:14:22A stellar laptop costs a few thousand dollars?
00:14:26A hundred million dollars?
00:14:27I...
00:14:29Dream on.
00:14:30Sure, a standard stellar isn't worth that much.
00:14:32But this isn't a standard, is it?
00:14:34What is it, made of gold?
00:14:35Even then, it still wouldn't cost a hundred million fucking dollars.
00:14:38You know what?
00:14:40You need to get the fuck out of here!
00:14:48Mr. Sullivan!
00:14:50Mr. Sullivan!
00:14:51That's Bill Sullivan.
00:14:52SVP for Stellar.
00:14:53Here?
00:14:54You think it's about the three hundred million dollar partnership deal?
00:14:56Three hundred million?
00:14:57That's huge for us, but pocket change for Stellar.
00:15:00Why would Mr. Sullivan come in person?
00:15:03Mr. Sullivan?
00:15:04Uh, what an unexpected honor.
00:15:07I'm, I'm Serena Harper.
00:15:08Uh, CEO, do, what do we owe the...
00:15:10Mr. Clark.
00:15:11The security have detected an urgent impact alert from your device.
00:15:15And the signal originated here.
00:15:16We were concerned for your safety and came immediately.
00:15:19Mr. Sullivan's here for Julian too?
00:15:21Because his laptop impact?
00:15:23Triggered an alarm.
00:15:24Unbelievable.
00:15:25Mr. Clark, are you alright?
00:15:27Yeah, I'm fine.
00:15:28It just took a fall.
00:15:31God.
00:15:31This damage is significant.
00:15:34With the custom components, preliminary repair estimate, this could be thirty million.
00:15:41Thirty million dollars?
00:15:43No, no, no, no.
00:15:44To fix a fucking laptop?
00:15:46That's impossible!
00:15:47There's no way!
00:15:47Are you questioning me?
00:15:49No, I just...
00:15:50Well, open your eyes.
00:15:51This is a one-off laptop, with Stellar's quantum processors and proprietary components.
00:15:56You better pray that those data partitions are intact, or that compensation will ruin you.
00:16:00I just had the critical, critical data corruption here.
00:16:04It's highly confidential files, high market value.
00:16:08I mean, with our declarations, this is at least seventy million dollars.
00:16:12What?
00:16:14That's seventy million dollars?
00:16:15What?
00:16:15Mr. Clark has the data on his laptop registered with monetary values to the security division.
00:16:21All damages to our fullest extent.
00:16:24Here.
00:16:25Receipts for the hardware and the notarized value declarations for the data.
00:16:29See for yourself.
00:16:39Who carries around a hundred million dollar laptop?
00:16:45Who exactly are you?
00:16:47You don't get to know.
00:16:49In fact, can we stay on topic about my compensation?
00:16:52And there's no way that there's a fucking laptop that costs a hundred million dollars.
00:16:56You know what?
00:16:56This is a fucking scam.
00:16:57These two, they're working together.
00:16:59I'm telling you, it's a con.
00:17:00What?
00:17:00Are you serious?
00:17:01I'm Blake Sullivan.
00:17:03I'm the senior vice president of Stellar.
00:17:04I don't fly across the city of Skim and nobody like you.
00:17:08Listen, I'm so...
00:17:09This is Harper.
00:17:10This is the employee you hire.
00:17:12He's a fool.
00:17:13And it speaks volumes about your company's judgment.
00:17:16Oh, by the way, our partnership deal?
00:17:19Consider it terminated.
00:17:21What?
00:17:21Um, Mr. Sullivan, please.
00:17:24Damien is just...
00:17:25He's stressed.
00:17:26He didn't mean...
00:17:27Save it.
00:17:28You take care of Mr. Clark's compensation first.
00:17:31You, if you dispute evaluations, we can settle it in court.
00:17:35My legal team has 965 lawyers.
00:17:38I'd love to teach you a lesson.
00:17:43Stellar's legal team is legendary.
00:17:45He never lost.
00:17:46Damien can't fight this.
00:17:48Hell, the entire Harper Enterprise doesn't have the resources to fight this.
00:17:52He's done for.
00:17:55Show me yourself.
00:17:57Please.
00:18:01Please.
00:18:05Mr. Sullivan, Harper Enterprise will provide full compensation.
00:18:10Will that suffice?
00:18:12I'm just here to certify facts.
00:18:13You need to discuss details with the laptop owner.
00:18:18Full payment.
00:18:19In my account.
00:18:21Within three days.
00:18:23In that case, we're done here.
00:18:25Mr. Clark, you call me with anything else?
00:18:28I'll do.
00:18:29Mr. Sullivan, are our partners?
00:18:31Ms. Harper, get your house in order first.
00:18:34Stellar has standards.
00:18:35We don't partner with clown shows.
00:18:38That'll be all.
00:18:39Mr. Sullivan!
00:18:40That's funny.
00:18:42Damien's lucky, huh?
00:18:43A hundred million on the line and you swoop in the cover for him.
00:18:46You know, I just hope that your father and your grandfather are as generous as you are.
00:18:52Whether her father or Chairman Harper approve is none of your goddamn business.
00:18:56We don't need someone like you worrying about it.
00:18:59He's right.
00:19:01Julian, I give you my word.
00:19:02The full amount will be paid within three days, but under one condition.
00:19:06Our engagement ends for good.
00:19:09And you will leave Harper Enterprise.
00:19:12Now.
00:19:13Did you hear that, Julian?
00:19:15You know, I'll admit it.
00:19:15Yeah, you got the money.
00:19:16But it's not about what you made.
00:19:18It's your family's fucking money.
00:19:19And now you're just a spoiled little trust fund baby who's been fired.
00:19:22So get the fuck out!
00:19:24Get the fuck out?
00:19:26One of us just torpedoed a hundred million dollar loan and a three hundred million dollar deal.
00:19:31Remind me, which one of us should actually get the fuck out?
00:19:35Serena, I think it is actually time to call your grandfather.
00:19:37Probably he could definitely settle all of this.
00:19:42Stop.
00:19:43Stop!
00:19:48This boy toy thinks he has the fucking right to call Chairman Harper.
00:19:52Who gives you the goddamn right?
00:19:55Funny.
00:19:56Guy hides behind a woman to pay his bill.
00:19:58Remind me, which one of us is the real boy toy?
00:20:03You.
00:20:13Get the fuck out!
00:20:15Julian, I don't care what kind of connections you think you have.
00:20:18This is Harper Enterprise.
00:20:20I'm the one in charge here.
00:20:23Security, remove him.
00:20:28Julian, please.
00:20:29Don't make us get physical.
00:20:30I'm the one Chairman Harper personally brought in.
00:20:32You really want to lay hands on me?
00:20:34Ha ha ha ha!
00:20:35Jared Harper brought you in!
00:20:38Julian, have you lost your fucking mind?
00:20:40Who do you think you are?
00:20:41You think you're fucking worth it?
00:20:44Julian, I've already given you more courtesy than you deserve.
00:20:46The more you cling on like this, the more disgusting you become to me.
00:20:52Do it.
00:20:55Well, it looks like I won't need that phone call.
00:20:57Still running your mouth, huh?
00:20:58Move.
00:20:59Get him the fuck out of here.
00:21:05What the hell is going on in here?
00:21:09Stand down!
00:21:10All of you!
00:21:11You!
00:21:12Out of here!
00:21:12Now!
00:21:13Dad?
00:21:14Grandpa?
00:21:14What are you doing here?
00:21:21Julian, I've been filled in on everything that's gone on today.
00:21:26I know that you've been wronged by this guy.
00:21:31Please accept my apology for everything.
00:21:34What?
00:21:34Chairman Harper apologizing to Julian?
00:21:38Grandpa, what are you doing?
00:21:42Chairman Harper, he's a loser who's addicted to playing games.
00:21:45How could you possibly?
00:21:46Shut up!
00:21:54How dare you disrespect Julian!
00:21:58Dad, I don't care what kind of background Julian has.
00:22:00You can't just hit people!
00:22:01I wish we hit him more.
00:22:03Sylvina, do you even have any idea who Julian Clark is?
00:22:08We didn't tell you everything because of your ego.
00:22:10And I didn't want to hurt your feelings.
00:22:12You were going to announce everything once the engagement was formally set.
00:22:16But who knew?
00:22:18Sylvina, you've been blind.
00:22:20Julian is-
00:22:21Thomas, you can't force something that isn't there.
00:22:23No real feelings.
00:22:25No need to go forward with the engagement.
00:22:27Julian, please, understand.
00:22:29All of this is on us.
00:22:31Everything that's happened here today is the fault of the Harperfin.
00:22:35Give me a chance to make it right.
00:22:41Apologize to Julian!
00:22:43Now!
00:22:43No!
00:22:44I don't care who you are, Julian.
00:22:47To me, you're still just a spoiled brat who thinks of himself as some sort of genius.
00:22:52But in reality, all you know is playing video games.
00:22:57I see right through you, and I will not apologize to you!
00:23:02Serena!
00:23:02Enough!
00:23:03Julian, she's just being foolish.
00:23:05Let me apologize.
00:23:06Save it.
00:23:08If Serena can't manage an apology herself, then I have no reason to protect this company anymore.
00:23:15Issue my order.
00:23:17Suspend all support for Harper Enterprise.
00:23:19Cease every protective measure, effective immediately.
00:23:22Julian, please, don't!
00:23:24Without you, this place doesn't survive.
00:23:27Look!
00:23:29Oh!
00:23:30What?
00:23:33What?
00:23:35Oh, I guess you could just pull the orders.
00:23:37What do you mean?
00:23:38Hostile takeover.
00:23:39All of our visitors pulled out.
00:23:41How can that be?
00:23:46Harper Enterprise stock plunges 30% in minutes, wiping out billions in market value.
00:23:52What? My entire division just stopped!
00:23:54We can't operate like this!
00:23:56A stunning reversal.
00:23:57Harper Enterprise's many allies withdraw their investments in an instant,
00:24:01leaving the group facing massive losses.
00:24:04Could it be all these months the company's been supported by Julian?
00:24:08Shocking Wall Street.
00:24:09Why did Harper Enterprises suddenly lose power?
00:24:13What caused them to lose their backing?
00:24:17How is that possible?
00:24:19Are you attacking the company?
00:24:21No matter who is behind this, I, Serena, will never bow down to you!
00:24:27Harper Enterprise will not yield to any market attacks.
00:24:30Do whatever it takes to stabilize the stocks!
00:24:32Mr. Harper, this isn't a race!
00:24:34Our major partners are terminating their contracts!
00:24:37And our own liquidity can't cover the gas!
00:24:40If this continues, the stocks will crash straight through the floor!
00:24:44What did you say?
00:24:46Damn it!
00:24:47How could that trash have such kind of power?
00:24:50Why him? I won't accept this! I won't!
00:24:53Serena, how can you stand there and watch Harper Enterprises burn to the ground around your feet?
00:24:58Please! Apologize to Julian!
00:25:00No!
00:25:04Serena, apologize!
00:25:08Serena, Serena, do not apologize!
00:25:21Serena, Serena, do not apologize!
00:25:21Harper Enterprise is worth hundreds of billions of dollars!
00:25:23You really think we can't survive without him?
00:25:26Let's just get through this crisis and I swear I will make him pay for everything that he has done
00:25:31to you!
00:25:32No!
00:25:33No, your fucking fault!
00:25:36You apologize to Julian right now!
00:25:39Get on your n-
00:25:40Dad!
00:25:42Damien!
00:25:43Damien!
00:25:44Dad, stop!
00:25:45Damien has only ever stood up for me!
00:25:47He is the only one who actually cares about me and I won't let you treat him like this!
00:25:50Stay out of the way!
00:25:51No!
00:25:53You really gonna go to war with Julian over this snake?
00:25:57Do you even have any idea who he really is?
00:26:00Whoever he is, it doesn't give him the right to just bully people like this!
00:26:03I cannot stand bullies who throw their weight around and today that is exactly what you look like to me!
00:26:10Serena, that is enough!
00:26:11You hate bullies who throw their weight around, right?
00:26:14What about this guy?
00:26:15What about him?
00:26:16He hides behind your name to steal other people's work!
00:26:19He throws tea on me in this very room!
00:26:21He squeezes a million dollars out of me just for a hundred thousand dollar watch!
00:26:24Don't you think that's bullying?
00:26:25Oh, I...
00:26:28But you hate bullies, right?
00:26:32Hey, you're no saint.
00:26:33You're just biased.
00:26:36You know, I've been engaged to you for the past six months.
00:26:39I have asked you out 37 times!
00:26:42Yeah, because I thought we should at least get to know each other!
00:26:44Every time I have asked you out, you said, I'm too busy with work.
00:26:48Sure.
00:26:49But that wasn't the truth.
00:26:50The truth is, is that you were too busy dating this sycophant.
00:26:54Listen to him sing your praises, right?
00:26:58Who's that?
00:26:59Oh, let me guess.
00:27:00Julian's still asking him out?
00:27:05Just... ignore him.
00:27:07Is he still your fiancΓ©?
00:27:09Is it okay you still keep blowing him off?
00:27:13I just... I can't stand him.
00:27:15A spoiled heir who thinks the world revolves around him?
00:27:20So what if I did?
00:27:22Who I choose to hang out with is my own choice.
00:27:25We're engaged, not married.
00:27:28I can see whoever I want.
00:27:30Serena, shut up!
00:27:32No, I am not done!
00:27:34Damien has worked himself to the bone!
00:27:37He is driven and disciplined, and when Harper first went public,
00:27:41he was a key reason that we made it.
00:27:43If you had even half his talent, Julian,
00:27:46maybe I would have said yes to you once.
00:27:49But you don't.
00:27:53Damien was a key reason you made it.
00:27:55That's your story, right?
00:27:56What is so funny?
00:27:57I mean, I'm laughing at just how foolish you are.
00:28:01Do you know why, for the past six months,
00:28:04all of your proposals have sailed through?
00:28:06Why every deal that you like happened to have closed?
00:28:09Why every time that you wanted a loan,
00:28:11the banks rolled out a special fast track for you.
00:28:14Because Damien is brilliant!
00:28:15Because he has cleared every obstacle in my way!
00:28:18Damien? Brilliant?
00:28:20That was Julian!
00:28:23Julian is the one who quietly has held this entire thing together!
00:28:27Serena!
00:28:28No, that is impossible.
00:28:31I don't believe it!
00:28:41Hey.
00:28:42Hi's up Serena.
00:28:43In the past six months, I've called in 47 separate connections
00:28:47and cleared a path for you.
00:28:48Oh, I put Harper Enterprise on the exchange.
00:28:50And you know, I made you Wall Street's business queen.
00:28:53That's Iron Gate, North Bridge, and even Silver Line.
00:28:56Those are all the top 50 global giants.
00:28:58They've all been backing us behind the scenes?
00:29:00No wonder every project went so smoothly.
00:29:03Julian's the one with this kind of network!
00:29:05Damien's got some nerves stealing credit for something like this.
00:29:08That's a death wish!
00:29:12No, no, no.
00:29:13It's not true, huh?
00:29:15Harper Enterprise is what it is because of me,
00:29:17and my hard work, and my connections!
00:29:19You arrogant fool!
00:29:22Did you think you could step in here and steal credit from everything?
00:29:32No, no, no, no.
00:29:32Alright, that's enough.
00:29:34I finally got the all clear from my grandfather.
00:29:36I can go home.
00:29:37So, as of right now, our engagement is terminated.
00:29:41Julian, all of this has been our fault.
00:29:43But the engagement...
00:29:45Let him go.
00:29:46I don't need a fiancΓ© who uses his family background to wreck people.
00:29:52Without my connections and my network,
00:29:55Harper Enterprise's stock is going to keep falling.
00:29:57And it's going to go right back to where it was six months ago.
00:30:04Prepare yourselves.
00:30:06Julian! Julian!
00:30:07Julian!
00:30:08Julian!
00:30:11Serena!
00:30:13You silly, foolish, foolish girl!
00:30:16Grandpa, I have never been clearer.
00:30:19With or without him, I will lead Harper Enterprise back to the top.
00:30:22Serena's right.
00:30:23Mr. Harper, Chairman Harper, I'm going to stand by Serena's side,
00:30:26and I'm going to give her everything that I've got.
00:30:29What?
00:30:29Crap.
00:30:30I'm going to beat the crap out of you once and for all!
00:30:33Dad, that is enough.
00:30:35Dad?
00:30:37Grandpa?
00:30:38I know you have your issues with Damien.
00:30:40But I believe he will prove himself to you.
00:30:43And so will I.
00:30:46I will show everyone here that what Harper achieved over the past six months was my work.
00:30:51It has nothing to do with Julian.
00:30:54This meeting is over.
00:30:57Serena, wait up!
00:30:59You!
00:31:00Tell me what to do with this reckless granddaughter.
00:31:08Serena, Serena!
00:31:09Don't even worry about that.
00:31:11I know our Enterprise took a huge hit today, but as long as we lock down Amber Group's Crescent Lake
00:31:15project,
00:31:15change the game, and everyone will still think that we're in control. Easy!
00:31:20The $3 billion Crescent Lake project.
00:31:23If we can win that contract, we can wipe all the problems we've been facing.
00:31:29Damien, you've secured several of Amber Group's projects before,
00:31:33and I'm going to put this one in your hands too.
00:31:35It's not going to be a problem, right?
00:31:36No, no, absolutely. You can count on me.
00:31:39Amber Group's Deputy VP of Projects.
00:31:41I mean, he trusts me completely.
00:31:44Who else has been his eyes?
00:31:52Get the Crescent Lake contract ready.
00:31:54Same as always.
00:31:55Once the Harper team arrives, we hand it straight to them.
00:31:59Miss Lawson, we just got an update.
00:32:00Julian Clark has been kicked out of Harper Enterprise.
00:32:03The engagement is off.
00:32:04Serena fired him and ended it.
00:32:08Are you sure?
00:32:10Absolutely.
00:32:11Word is she listened to her assistant, Damien, who really stirred the pot,
00:32:14and then Serena personally pushed Julian out.
00:32:17Serena really thinks she got where she was because of Damien?
00:32:20That for your little lap dog?
00:32:22Then do we still hand the Crescent Lake project over to Harper Enterprise?
00:32:26Without Julian, Harper Enterprise really thinks it's worthy of Crescent Lake?
00:32:31Not a chance.
00:32:32Open it to public bidding.
00:32:34Yes, ma'am.
00:32:43Now that is an amazing shot, Mr. Brooks.
00:32:45Damien, Crescent Lake's public bid is coming up soon.
00:32:49How's Harper Enterprise looking?
00:33:05Damien?
00:33:06What does this mean, huh?
00:33:08Mr. Brooks, why don't you do yourself a favor and take a closer look?
00:33:13That's one million in clean crypto, untraceable.
00:33:17Harper Enterprise is totally prepared to take on Crescent Lake.
00:33:22We just need you to give us a little extra attention.
00:33:25Oh my, Damien, you're too kind.
00:33:29Sure, it's a public bidding on paper, but as long as I'm here, you've got nothing to worry about.
00:33:37Sit tight.
00:33:39Contract's yours.
00:33:41Miss Larson usually hands Harper Enterprises whatever they want anyway.
00:33:47Well, thank you very much, Mr. Brooks.
00:33:55You have to go.
00:33:56Okay, please.
00:34:06Thank you very much.
00:34:16Just.
00:34:16I'll go to the next meeting of the next meeting.
00:34:17I'll go to the next meeting.
00:34:17Well, well.
00:34:18Friends, Julian!
00:34:27Oh, I see. So you brought me to your party just to mock me a little bit. Is that right?
00:34:35Of course. I'm here to steal you. You see, since your engagement is off, I was thinking,
00:34:48how about you consider me, huh? Guys like us, we don't get to escape alliances.
00:34:57Our families will bear us off either way, so why pick a stranger when there's someone who actually knows you?
00:35:08You see? Childhood friends, same circles, 15 years of school.
00:35:16We match, you know? We fit.
00:35:22Hang on. Nora, are you saying this because you're drunk or do you...
00:35:26Shhh.
00:35:34I'm not drunk, okay? You don't have to answer me tonight. Just think about it.
00:35:40Hmm?
00:35:45Ah!
00:36:11I told you I'm not drunk.
00:36:13Alright. Your swimsuit fell off.
00:36:15I'm not drunk.
00:36:15I'm not drunk.
00:36:15Oh, shit. I'm not drunk.
00:36:19Oh, shit. I'm not drunk.
00:36:20You're alright. Your swimsuit fell off.
00:36:22Oh, shit. I'm not drunk.
00:36:28Oh, shit. I'm not drunk.
00:36:42Hey, CEO. Allow me the pleasure of introducing myself.
00:36:46Oh, I am so sorry. Bad timing. Truly terrible timing.
00:36:59Don't move. If that jacket slips for you in a second, you're finished.
00:37:03Okay, aren't you great about tomorrow's headlines?
00:37:05I'm a group CEO that got caught in a scandal at a pool party.
00:37:09Remember, it was tomorrow's company's visibility, but I'm not letting the pictures of my dress go through.
00:37:15Okay. Okay. But if you stay through to me like this for the rest of the night, I think my
00:37:27heart's gonna skip on its chest.
00:37:41And suffer, okay? If you push me, I will toss you into a little ice crusher.
00:37:52Please, just walk with me to the nearest changing room, okay?
00:37:58Okay.
00:38:11Speak of the devil of all good times.
00:38:19No, this is a private party for Amber Group's CEO. You know what I lost? Not exactly the kind of
00:38:25place where anybody could just wander into.
00:38:27Oh, wait.
00:38:30Well, well. I mean, your engagement ends and you move on in record time. Feelings for Serena weren't that deep
00:38:37after all.
00:38:38Can I help you with something?
00:38:41Seriously? This woman's even prettier than Serena. How does a loser like Julia always get women?
00:38:47I guess your taste hasn't improved. Whatever bargain bin date you dragged here, she's nothing compared to Serena.
00:38:56Pouring herself out like this? It's a beautiful ticker.
00:39:00Is that so?
00:39:02Now I hear your company's looking to bid on Amber Group's Crescent Lake project.
00:39:09What? You're bidding too? Yeah, I know you got connection and that's great, you know.
00:39:13But you're still a useless fucking piece of trash. Me? I got real talent, alright?
00:39:17And I'm gonna win Crescent Lake for Serena. You? You're just gonna fucking lose like you lose everything else.
00:39:24Good luck.
00:39:36See that? That is a shameless whore.
00:39:40That woman seems familiar.
00:39:42Listen man, you don't even know anyone that cheap.
00:39:46Alright, come on. Let's enjoy the rest of the party. Let's go socialize and maybe we'll run into the host
00:39:50of the party lost in herself.
00:39:53And if we do, I'll make sure we're really good at brush.
00:40:14So that pretty boy Damien actually said that I'm nowhere near Serena.
00:40:19Tonight we're gonna see who's really on top.
00:40:22Okay. Manners, this is a public event.
00:40:25What?
00:40:27You've known me since we were kids. Why would I pretend around you?
00:40:31But if you like glasses, I can do glasses.
00:40:35Oh can you? You can do glasses?
00:40:37Yeah.
00:40:38Miss Lawson, it's an honor to see you here today.
00:40:46I'll let you get to it.
00:40:50Sally?
00:41:07Julian.
00:41:11I'm surprised you showed up. You really love to humiliate yourself, huh?
00:41:17You know what? Mason Brooks, Amber Group's Deputy VP of Projects, already agreed to award the contract to Harper Enterprise.
00:41:26You can't win.
00:41:31I hear the Crescent Lake Project is basically yours. Congratulations.
00:41:36Serena, you are the business queen of Wall Street.
00:41:38And with Damien backing you up, it's unstoppable.
00:41:41When the two of you take off, don't forget the little guys like us.
00:41:44Of course. You know, we're gonna take care of you guys.
00:41:46Thank you so much.
00:41:54See that, Julian?
00:41:56Everybody already knows that Crescent Lake belongs to Harper Enterprise.
00:41:59I suggest you walk out of here before you keep embarrassing yourself.
00:42:02It's funny.
00:42:04You see, my Clark Group has deeper capital, better tech, and a stronger global record than Harper Enterprise.
00:42:10So, I'm just curious, why would Mason Brooks go with you guys?
00:42:14He recognizes Damien's talent, of course.
00:42:21I need to take this.
00:42:29Mind Julian, what century are you living in? Hmm?
00:42:35You really think that capital and technology wins contracts anymore?
00:42:38Then what does?
00:42:40Ain't really that fucking stupid? Of course this.
00:42:45I paid Mason Brooks one million in crypto.
00:42:48What do you have that's gonna be that?
00:42:51You paid Mason Brooks?
00:42:54That's impossible. He wouldn't dare.
00:42:56That's impossible. He wouldn't dare.
00:42:58Yeah, you wanna understand the rules up top there, sweetheart.
00:43:01But hey, you're a very lovely, beautiful escort.
00:43:05Why don't you do us all a favor, get up on that stage and give us a nice little poll
00:43:09show.
00:43:09Hey.
00:43:10Hey, I'm gonna tell you, you wanna know why I keep winning Amber Group deals?
00:43:15Because every time I give Mason Brooks a nice little fortune.
00:43:21Capital technology.
00:43:24It's useless. Fucking trash!
00:43:28Mason Brooks, you've got a lot in there. He's finished.
00:43:32Mr. Brooks is finished.
00:43:34Who the fuck is this?
00:43:36Who are you?
00:43:37What do you think? You're the Amber Group CEO or something?
00:43:41Who gave you the fucking guts? It's adorable, no?
00:43:44Amber Group's anti-corruption code did.
00:43:47You mean it's anti-corruption?
00:44:02What are you gonna report, Mr. Brooks? Hmm?
00:44:07You hit me.
00:44:09You think you put your fucking hands on me?!
00:44:11I can have Mason Brooks crush you with one phone call.
00:44:17There he is, Mr. Brooks is here.
00:44:19You're finished.
00:44:22Mr. Brooks.
00:44:23You mean my friend?
00:44:25There's a woman here.
00:44:26Says she's gonna report to you.
00:44:27Come on, please, teach her a lesson.
00:44:28Oh, report me?
00:44:30Which idiot has the nerve?
00:44:31This woman right here.
00:44:35Miss...
00:44:36Lost?
00:44:37She's even, she's even quoted the anti-corruption code like she's somebody.
00:44:40Like, how fucking ridiculous!
00:44:41What?
00:44:43What?
00:44:44This...
00:44:45This...
00:44:46This can't be...
00:44:49Go ahead, laugh!
00:44:51Laugh some more.
00:44:52Are you insane, Damien?
00:44:54You'll say anything out loud!
00:44:55Mr. Brooks, what do you mean?
00:44:56She's just some gold-taking whore!
00:44:58I mean, even if she rats you out, who's gonna believe this?
00:45:02Why are you beating me?!
00:45:03Shut your fucking mouth!
00:45:05When did I ever take your money?
00:45:07I never took one cent!
00:45:08Say it again, and I'll bury you!
00:45:12Idiots!
00:45:12Mr. Brooks, what are you doing?
00:45:15Miss Lawson, this...
00:45:16This Damien...
00:45:17He's a lunatic!
00:45:18He's making things up!
00:45:20Don't listen to him!
00:45:21I swear!
00:45:22I never took one dollar from him!
00:45:24Not once!
00:45:27Miss Lawson?
00:45:30No, no, wait!
00:45:31You're Nora Lawson?
00:45:33Amber's group CEO?
00:45:34That...
00:45:35How is that possible?
00:45:36How is that fucking...
00:45:36Mr. Brooks?
00:45:37Hello, I am Serena Harper.
00:45:40Thank you so much for awarding the Crescent Lake Project to Harper Enterprise.
00:45:43We promise we won't let you down.
00:45:48Stop!
00:45:48Shut the fuck up!
00:45:50When did I ever give you anything?!
00:45:54Miss Lawson?
00:45:55These Harper Enterprise people, they're all out of their minds!
00:45:59They lie like the wind!
00:46:01I can't believe a word they say!
00:46:03Miss Lawson?
00:46:05Miss Lawson?
00:46:07She's Nora Lawson?
00:46:12The Crescent Lake Project?
00:46:14Harper Enterprise is out.
00:46:16You can leave now.
00:46:20Um...
00:46:20Miss Lawson, I am...
00:46:21I am so sorry.
00:46:23Damien...
00:46:24Didn't know who you were, so he thought that you and Julian were being...
00:46:28Um...
00:46:29I-Inappropriate.
00:46:30Um...
00:46:30But I'll make him apologize.
00:46:31Right now.
00:46:33He is blunt.
00:46:34Yes.
00:46:35But...
00:46:36His ability is exceptional.
00:46:38Please...
00:46:39Give Harper Enterprise the contract and...
00:46:42I promise we will deliver results that satisfy you.
00:46:45Exceptional ability?
00:46:47Are you sure about that?
00:46:49Of course.
00:46:50If not, why would Mason Brooks have handed him so many contracts before?
00:46:55You're about to find out.
00:47:03Damien?
00:47:04What does she mean?
00:47:06Oh, shit.
00:47:07I can't let her find out I secured every project.
00:47:10Right.
00:47:10So, she's upset because I mistook her for a whore.
00:47:13So, she wants revenge.
00:47:15So, she's gonna embarrass Harper Enterprise in front of everyone.
00:47:18So, what we need to do is we need to get out of here now.
00:47:19Let's go.
00:47:20Go?
00:47:21If we don't win Crescent Lake, Harper Enterprise is finished.
00:47:26Even if Miss Lawson is trying to punish us, we still have to earn her forgiveness.
00:47:29Serena, please!
00:47:30Okay?
00:47:30I'm sorry.
00:47:32There we go now.
00:47:33Alright?
00:47:34I'll get you bigger projects, the biggest ones, but we need to go now.
00:47:37Come on!
00:47:37What is wrong with you today?
00:47:39Are you hiding something from me?
00:47:41I...
00:47:54You want to understand the rules on top there, sweetheart?
00:47:58Technology capital.
00:48:00Useless fucking trash!
00:48:02What?
00:48:03Shit!
00:48:04She actually recorded it?
00:48:05An escort.
00:48:06So, why don't you do us all a nice little favor, get up on that stage, give us a nice
00:48:10little whole show.
00:48:14Who is that?
00:48:15He bribed Mason Brooks for contracts?
00:48:18That's Damien Blackwell, Harper Enterprise's executive assistant.
00:48:21How do you not know him?
00:48:23How do you not know him?
00:48:23All of the best Amber projects being sent to Harper Enterprises over the past six months,
00:48:27and now we know they were bought.
00:48:31That's not true.
00:48:32All of that's a lie.
00:48:34Just don't...
00:48:34Don't believe it.
00:48:35Just turn it up!
00:48:36Turn it up!
00:48:37Right now!
00:48:37Stop him!
00:48:39Let go of me!
00:48:42Damien, you did this behind my back?
00:48:44This is your talent?
00:48:45Your ability?
00:48:47Yes, Damien, please just use it.
00:48:49Mr. Brooks is very simple.
00:48:51What a fucking routine.
00:48:52Listen to Sammy.
00:48:52Who are you to say anything?
00:48:54What do you think, your Amber group CEO?
00:48:56Amber group.
00:48:58Sorry, sorry.
00:48:59Turn it off, please.
00:49:00Okay.
00:49:00Okay.
00:49:01Miss Lawson, please just turn it off.
00:49:02Just...
00:49:03Please stop it!
00:49:04Please!
00:49:04Please!
00:49:06Bribery is one thing, but mistaking Miss Lawson for an escort?
00:49:10A whore?
00:49:11Yes.
00:49:12He's fucking blind.
00:49:13The best part?
00:49:14He confessed right in front of her that Mason Brooks took money.
00:49:18Genius.
00:49:19And Serena trusted him to be her assistant?
00:49:22I mean, what does that say about her judgment?
00:49:25Damien, you have disappointed me beyond words.
00:49:28Serena, I did it because I cared about you.
00:49:30Because I care about Harper Enterprise.
00:49:32Please, I'm...
00:49:33I'm telling you the truth.
00:49:34Enough.
00:49:36Everyone has seen enough.
00:49:38Mason Brooks, you're fired.
00:49:40Effective immediately.
00:49:42I'm done.
00:49:44The Crescent Lake Project.
00:49:47Harper Enterprise is disqualified.
00:49:50Every single project Amber group has done together with them will be suspended.
00:49:55The projects will be back for competitive bidding.
00:49:59No, no, you can't do that.
00:50:01But those projects are our next three years.
00:50:04They affect thousands of employees.
00:50:06Their lives turn future.
00:50:08And why am the person who hired Trash and called it talent?
00:50:13Real talent.
00:50:20The Crescent Lake Project.
00:50:21No, no, I'm dealing with them.
00:50:28I don't know.
00:50:29I don't know.
00:50:29I'm doing that.
00:50:29You're not.
00:50:30I'm doing that.
00:50:31I'm doing that.
00:50:42All right, I'm doing that.
00:50:43of a lot of people asking for dinner isn't too much right not at all you pick
00:50:50my treat generous let's go I'm to rob the tycoon
00:50:57miss Lawson Damien was wrong to bribe anyone and I I apologize on his behalf
00:51:04just please give Harper Enterprise another chance I I will meet the highest
00:51:11standards I will deliver a perfect result on every project perfect result and
00:51:18what exactly guarantee is that your empty suit assistant miss Lawson Damien made
00:51:26a mistake but but his ability is exceptional for six months he managed
00:51:32every Harper Enterprise project flawlessly no errors no delays if you
00:51:36don't pull this contract I guarantee he will make sure you see his
00:51:44value managed flawlessly he's not the only empty suit here
00:51:49you're too miss Lawson you are crossing a line I understand that you and Julian
00:51:59are close and you want to get back at me for him but humiliating someone like this
00:52:03isn't that a little cruel you really think I froze our cooperation because Damien
00:52:08right Mason wasn't that the reason for six months Harper Enterprise got
00:52:16everything it wanted from Ember group for one reason Julian Clark Damien has nothing to do with that he was
00:52:27just a messenger boy who picked up the contracts what when Julian was there
00:52:32right or bribe or bribe Harper Enterprise got the deals anyway but now Julian's gone so
00:52:39the special treatment is gone Damien's little arriving incident it was just a
00:52:45convenient excuse to take everything back understand now
00:52:52and about those flawless projects Harper Enterprise didn't run smoothly because
00:52:58Damien is brilliant it ran smoothly because Julian called every partner every supplier every gatekeeper and cleared the path for
00:53:08you
00:53:09Damien had nothing to do with that
00:53:15no that's not true I I don't believe you don't believe me then watch watch what

01:01:23Let me go!
01:01:25Julian, you know this one in the fucking lines.
01:01:27This isn't over.
01:01:32Julian, please.
01:01:34Thank God you came and you had that...
01:01:36We are not that close.
01:01:40I was just passing through.
01:01:41I heard some screaming, so I stopped by to check.
01:01:44You.
01:01:44I want you to call the Harper family.
01:01:47Tell them to come pick her up.
01:01:48Yes, sir.
01:01:51Julian!
01:01:52I am sorry.
01:01:54I know.
01:01:55I was wrong.
01:01:57Just...
01:01:58Please come back.
01:01:59Julian!
01:02:01Our reservation is in ten minutes.
01:02:03Let's go.
01:02:11Serena, I told you over and over and over again that Damien was not a good man.
01:02:22And you refused to listen.
01:02:25And Julian, if Julian doesn't come along just at the right time...
01:02:30Oh my God.
01:02:32I can't even...
01:02:33I can't even think about it.
01:02:35If you don't do something about that stubborn pride of yours...
01:02:37One day...
01:02:40You will live to regret it.
01:02:41Dad, Grandpa, please.
01:02:43Stop.
01:02:43I know I was wrong, okay?
01:02:46I'll...
01:02:48I'll apologize...
01:02:49To Julian.
01:02:51And...
01:02:51I will follow through with the engagement.
01:02:55The problem with that is that you may feel that way.
01:02:58But Julian might not.
01:03:00Grandpa...
01:03:02Don't worry.
01:03:04I...
01:03:05I will apologize properly.
01:03:07And I will earn his forgiveness.
01:03:10That's all we can do.
01:03:13So, John...
01:03:14Put out a city-wide bolo on that bastard Damien.
01:03:19He put his hands on my granddaughter.
01:03:23We're not letting that go.
01:03:25No.
01:03:26We're not.
01:03:27Understood.
01:03:59Oh, my dear Miss Lawson.
01:04:06What is this supposed to be?
01:04:07A gift for you?
01:04:10Myself?
01:04:12I'll give you 30% equity.
01:04:14Amber group backs you up.
01:04:16No questions asked.
01:04:18But first...
01:04:19You have to accept the gift.
01:04:22Properly.
01:04:32Hey.
01:04:33Can you not do that?
01:04:35You're making this incredibly awkward.
01:04:38You know a woman like me shows up a gift wrapped and any man would have, you know,
01:04:44housed me by now.
01:04:46Then tell me you're still hung up on Serena.
01:04:49Hung up?
01:04:52You aren't gonna be hung up on Serena.
01:04:53She and I were never romantic.
01:04:56No, it's just a business marriage between two families.
01:05:00Things are moving too fast.
01:05:03You gotta think twice.
01:05:04But I don't have time.
01:05:06My family is preparing to send me off into a European alliance.
01:05:11Some old money.
01:05:13Perfect match they can show off at Wallace.
01:05:16Wait, what are you talking about? Are you serious?
01:05:18Yes, Julian.
01:05:20My uncle is thirsty for my family's fortune and he'll do whatever it takes to get rid of me permanently.
01:05:26But I don't want a stranger. I want you.
01:05:28I love you.
01:05:31Julian.
01:05:33Let's make it official.
01:05:35Let's get married.
01:05:38You know, if you'll marry me, my family won't dare object.
01:05:45Please, Julian.
01:05:56Okay.
01:05:58I'll marry you.
01:06:00Are you serious?
01:06:02No take-backs.
01:06:03No take-backs.
01:06:04Ever.
01:06:05Ever.
01:06:06I knew you wouldn't abandon me.
01:06:08But, can you help me out?
01:06:12Um, my hands are getting hurt.
01:06:15So impatient.
01:06:20It's like you said, if I accept the gift, then our engagement becomes official.
01:06:32Then be gentle.
01:06:40Julian, you didn't forget what you promised last night, right?
01:06:46Uh, no. Because I actually wasn't drunk.
01:06:49Of course I remember that.
01:06:51You know, when someone wraps themselves as a gift, kind of, you kind of remember that for the rest of
01:06:56your life.
01:06:57Details!
01:06:58Those are just tiny details.
01:07:02Look like big details to me.
01:07:07Julian.
01:07:09Can I talk to you alone for a second?
01:07:12Serena, I really don't think there's anything we need to discuss.
01:07:14Julian, I was wrong. I never should have trusted Damien. I misjudged everything. Please, just give me one more chance
01:07:21and I'll honor the engagement.
01:07:24And if you take me back, just tell me what you want. I'll do anything.
01:07:27I'm sorry, I'm Nora's boyfriend now.
01:07:33Boyfriend?
01:07:39Serena, you once said you hate arranged marriages. Well, Julian hates them too.
01:07:45And yet you stayed at Harper Enterprise for six full months.
01:07:49He asked you out 37 times. So tell me, what exactly are you proud of?
01:07:55Hmm? Men like him?
01:07:59If you treat him like trash, someone else will treat him like treasure.
01:08:04Listen carefully, we are all together now, so better keep your distance.
01:08:09If you don't, I won't be so nice about it.
01:08:14Come on.
01:08:15We're trying on our wedding outfits tonight. Let's not be late.
01:08:19Wedding outfits.
01:08:23Let's go.
01:08:37So how did it go? Julian?
01:08:40He's with Nora.
01:08:46Nora. Nora Lawson, CEO of Amber Group. Of course.
01:08:52You know, Serena, it's an elite like Julian. The second you let go, somebody comes and grabs him. You don't
01:09:00get another chance.
01:09:02God gave our family a chance. And we blew it.
01:09:07God, forgive the Harpers. Please.
01:09:12Ms. Harper, Finance sent the latest reports.
01:09:15Harper Enterprise's cash flow has collapsed.
01:09:18If we don't act immediately, we won't even have enough to make payroll this month.
01:09:25Great. Now all of Wall Street knows that we crossed Julian. That wasn't going to lend to us now. How
01:09:31are we supposed to get financing?
01:09:32This is my fault, okay? I was blind. Are you proud now? I actually believed I was some business queen.
01:09:43I didn't realize that Julian was running everything. And the moment he's gone, I can't do anything. Dad, Grandpa, I'm
01:09:54so sorry. I ruined Harper Enterprise. I ruined everything.
01:10:00Dad, you're the one who arranged the engagement with Julian's grandfather, right? So maybe you should go talk to him
01:10:07and see if he'll give us a second chance.
01:10:10Yes, Grandpa. Julian listens to his grandfather. If we can get his acceptance and...
01:10:17The Clark family isn't what it used to be.
01:10:21Yes, they honored our engagement. And that was a mercy. That was a blessing. But you threw it away.
01:10:34Still, for your sake and for your future, and for our future, we'll fight.
01:10:42Oh my God.
01:10:47Serena, when you see Julian's grandfather, your apology has to be sincere. If he forgives you, only then will you
01:10:59know that you have a chance to get Julian back.
01:11:02Understood, Grandpa. For the Harper family, I'll do whatever it takes.
01:11:22Welcome. You must be here for Mr. Clark and Ms. Lawson's engagement party.
01:11:28Perfect timing. They're just about to start.
01:11:32Engagement party? So they're really engaged?
01:11:36Wait, how is this all happening so fast?
01:11:40What is this supposed to mean?
01:11:43Mr. Clark and Ms. Lawson have known each other since they were born and everyone is so happy that they're
01:11:48finally getting married.
01:11:50Oh, oh, I see. You didn't come here to congratulate them, right?
01:11:56Then please leave. Otherwise, I will have to call security.
01:12:05If there's an engagement party, that means Julian's grandfather has already approved of an engagement.
01:12:14And that means we're done. There's no more chances left. We're leaving.
01:12:20Is this my punishment?
01:12:24All right, everyone. Big smiles.
01:12:36All right, everyone. Big smiles.
01:12:52Big smiles.
01:12:53What is it?
01:12:54Oh, it's nothing. Come on. Dinner's almost ready.

01:22:43I'm sure you've all heard, Harper Enterprise affected today has become a Clark Group subsidiary,
01:22:49so you're all being terminated.
01:22:52What?
01:22:54Mr. Clark, that's too much.
01:22:56I've given this company 15 years.
01:22:59You can't just walk in and fire everyone.
01:23:0115 years, wow. Congratulations.
01:23:04You've had 15 years to make this company clean, and instead you've turned it into a suit.
01:23:10You know, I've been watching you guys for about six months now.
01:23:13I've seen how you all work.
01:23:16There are bribes, embezzlement, kickbacks, fraud.
01:23:24Everyone beat us a smile.
01:23:26So we're going to be passing out some resignation terms, and once you sign them, hand over your
01:23:33badges, or you're going to rot in jail.
01:23:37This, this is it.
01:23:53Are you satisfied now?
01:23:56Satisfied?
01:23:57Thomas went to my grandfather.
01:23:59He begged him to acquire Harper Enterprise so that your family could cash out.
01:24:04I saved you.
01:24:07Julian!
01:24:10If I didn't treat you the way I did, would any of this be different?
01:24:24Julian, why don't you get thrown away and still land something better?
01:24:27I spent my whole life climbing upwards, and now I'm stuck at the bottom, hunted by cops.
01:24:32I won't accept it.
01:24:34Julian, what's yours?
01:24:35Julian!
01:24:40Let me go!
01:24:41Fucking let me go!
01:24:42I already spared you.
01:24:44You didn't learn at all, did you?
01:24:46Go ahead, take him to the police.
01:24:47Get the best of all your money can buy.
01:24:48I want him to rot in jail.
01:24:50Fucking coward!
01:24:50You're a fucking coward!
01:24:52Hiding behind your goddamn family's money!
01:24:54No, no, fight me!
01:24:55101!
01:24:55101!
01:24:56Let the guards go!
01:24:57You don't have the fucking guts to you!
01:25:03Hey, Julian.
01:25:04What was that?
01:25:05Just taking out the trash.
01:25:08Are you done here?
01:25:11No.
01:25:12Let's go.
