00:00:03Breaking news. Harper Enterprise is under a coordinated short attack. In the past hour alone, the conglomerate has lost over
00:00:11a billion dollars in argumentation.
00:00:23I need you to buy the stock, alright?
00:00:25We can't do this now. This 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.
00:00:48Julia, we need you. Again. Shit. Shit.
00:00:55Give me a sec.
00:01:01Hey, Mr. Griffin, how you doing? Good, good, yeah. I just need to ask for a little favor.
00:01:12Julia, 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?
00:01:31Julian, 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. Chairman's orders.
00:01:42Why would Damien call in the meeting? He despises you. Watch your back.
00:01:47Hello and we've got emails out here room there later.
00:01:53How was that possible?
00:01:55The standard of clock.
00:02:02The standard of clock.
00:02:14Today, Damien successfully adopted you.
00:02:17We eventually neutralized 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 win from someone else.
00:02:34Remember what he did to Anthony from investments?
00:02:37Damien took credit for his deal.
00:02:39Anthony pushed back and Damien used his pool with Serena to get him fired.
00:02:48Hello? Is there a problem?
00:02:51Because I'm pretty sure I saved all your asses from the fire, the least that every single one of you
00:02:55can-
00:02:55Damien!
00:02:58Of course.
00:03:00Questions?
00:03:02I'd be happy to share my strategies to help save your livelihoods.
00:03:10Julian, the company just went through a crisis and you're up here, Damien?
00:03:15Pirate maybe?
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.
00:03:27I forgot.
00:03:29You're just the resident good for nothing.
00:03:31My strategy is you 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?
00:03:46And what was their distinct objective?
00:03:48And what specifically was their entry strategy?
00:03:50Doesn't matter.
00:03:51What matters is that I stopped.
00:03:53You can't even name the enemy?
00:03:55Alright, fine.
00:03:56Next question.
00:03:58Which firms did you guys recruit as white knights?
00:04:00And what preferential terms did you promise them in exchange for the capital injection?
00:04:03Well...
00:04:05Well...
00:04:08Well...
00:04:08Well...
00:04:08Well...
00:04:09Well...
00:04:10Well, you can't even name the basics.
00:04:11Alright.
00:04:12So you certainly have no idea how to stand up a cross-functional war room, the countermeasures for a potential
00:04:17proxy fight, or which SEC clauses could be used to threaten the attackers.
00:04:23Let's be real.
00:04:26You 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?
00:04:46You're fucking fired!
00:04:48Now get your shit and get the fuck out now!
00:04:59You hear that, Dad?
00:05:01I guess the verdict is, get the fuck out.
00:05:06Understood.
00:05:07Now, the hearing's not enough.
00:05:09I want you to tell Grandpa to get me out of this company.
00:05:11Now.
00:05:16You took our family's market cap and raised it to three trillion dollars.
00:05:22You proved everything that needs to be proved.
00:05:24Now, 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 could grow, but our families go way better.
00:05:40Your marriage will definitely be a happy one.
00:05:43My life.
00:05:44My choice.
00:05:45Look, when it comes to choosing my partner, I want to make sure that-
00:05:47Enough!
00:05:47Oh, 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.
00:05:58And date her properly, hmm?
00:06:01You refuse.
00:06:03You refuse.
00:06:04Okay.
00:06:05Nurse.
00:06:06Dr. Ann.
00:06:06Check it 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.
00:06:11Okay.
00:06:12Alright.
00:06:12I'll go.
00:06:15I know when I pass again.
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, they're in trouble.
00:06:25We do not abandon our own.
00:06:29Use that brilliant head of yours.
00:06:31Enough.
00:06:34Please.
00:06:34For me.
00:06:36Fine.
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,
00:06:52to help her.
00:06:53I pulled Harper Enterprise from the brink of bankruptcy and made it soar.
00:06:57I 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?
00:07:06It's time to come home.
00:07:13You asked for my opinion, and you couldn't handle it.
00:07:15So, pathetic.
00:07:17I said you're fired.
00:07:18Get your shit and get the fuck out of my throat.
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 I'm gonna call security.
00:07:28I'm 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.
00:07:59You don'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 fiancé is telling you to get lost.
00:08:17So why don't you do yourself a goddamn favor and get lost before I fucking report what?
00:08:28You're broke.
00:08:29You're broke, Puppetee.
00:08:31You know how much this costs, you fucking asshole?
00:08:33A hundred thousand dollars!
00:08:37We lost your balance.
00:08:39Maybe work on your core strength.
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.
00:08:50Effective 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, he 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.
00:09:07Okay.
00:09:09Is it a hundred thousand dollars?
00:09:10What one 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 could 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.
00:09:27That's the rule.
00:09:28Though on your salary, it might take a few lifetimes.
00:09:36Well, 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.
00:09:56What's the final offer?
00:09:57What do you mean?
00:10:02Hi.
00:10:03I 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, like a stakeout?
00:10:27What's next in a private army?
00:10:29All right, Julian.
00:10:30The charade ends now.
00:10:31Leave the company, and you won't have to pay for the watch.
00:10:34But 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 throw you-
00:10:45Get 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-
00:10:53Fuckin' look off your face!
00:10:58Enough!
00:11:03Mr. Brooks.
00:11:07That's David Brooks.
00:11:08President 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?
00:11:13It can't be.
00:11:15That amount isn't worth Mr. Brooks' personal involvement.
00:11:19Mr. Clark.
00:11:21The one million.
00:11:22As requested.
00:11:42To Julian?
00:11:43The money's...
00:11:46Mr. Brooks, personally delivering cash?
00:11:49To Julian?
00:11:50Wait, uh, the- the money is-
00:11:52It's real?
00:11:53Wait, I-
00:11:54Delivered by Mr. Brooks? I mean, wait, who are you?
00:12:00Much appreciated. You can just leave it on the table.
00:12:09Mr. Brooks, sir, we 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? My resources are available at your disposal.
00:12:26No, thank you. You can go down. Of course.
00:12:36A company where executives throw chairs during a meeting? Unprofessional.
00:12:42I'm suspending the $100 million deal. We'll reassess when there's adult supervision.
00:12:48Yes, 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. The chairman will have his head.
00:12:59This is all your fault, all right? You 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...
00:13:09As for us...
00:13:11One million. In full.
00:13:14Which makes this watch...
00:13:18It's mine.
00:13:20You arrogant...
00:13:22Son of a bitch!
00:13:27I bet this is all the money that you have, isn't it? I bet you ought to sell your house
00:13:30to scrape this together, you fucking loser.
00:13:36But it's all mine now.
00:13:38Yeah, sure. The 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?
00:13:45Oh, I don't know, maybe about a hundred million?
00:13:50A hundred million dollars!
00:13:54For a laptop? Have you lost your mind?
00:13:58A hundred million.
00:14:00For a laptop.
00:14:02Julian, the law requires compensation for actual value.
00:14:05What's your committee 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?
00:14:14Huh?
00:14:16That's a concern.
00:14:17Enough!
00:14:18Julian, you know, I know you think you're right, but a stellar laptop costs a few thousand dollars?
00:14:26A hundred million dollars? I...
00:14:29Dream on.
00:14:30Sure, a standard stellar isn't worth that much, but this isn't a standard.
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!
00:14:51That's Billy Sullivan, SVP for Stellar.
00:14:54Here? You think it's about the $300 million partnership here?
00:14:56Three hundred million?
00:14:58That's huge for us, but pocket change for Stellar.
00:15:00Why would Mr. Sullivan come in person?
00:15:03Mr. Sullivan?
00:15:05What an unexpected honor. I'm Sabrina Harper, CEO. What do we owe the...
00:15:10Mr. Clark, our security have detected an urgent impact alert from your device.
00:15:15And the signal originated here.
00:15:17We were concerned for your safety and came immediately.
00:15:19Mr. Sullivan's here for Julian, too?
00:15:21Because his laptop impact triggered an alarm?
00:15:24Unbelievable.
00:15:25Mr. Clark, are you all right?
00:15:27Yeah, I'm fine. It just took a fall.
00:15:31God, this damage is significant.
00:15:34With the custom components, preliminary repair estimate, this could be $30 million.
00:15:42$30 million? No, no, no, no.
00:15:44To fix a fucking laptop?
00:15:46That's impossible! There's no way!
00:15:48Are you questioning me?
00:15:49No, I just...
00:15:50I'll open your eyes.
00:15:51This is a one-off laptop with Stellar's quantum processors and proprietary components.
00:15:55You 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 $70 million.
00:16:13That's $70 million?
00:16:15Mr. Clark has the data on his laptop registered with monetary values to the security division.
00:16:21All damages to a 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 $100 million laptop?
00:16:46Who exactly are you?
00:16:47You don't get to know.
00:16:49In fact, can we stay on topic about my compensation?
00:16:52There's no way that there's a fucking laptop that cost $100 million!
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.
00:17:00Are you serious?
00:17:01I'm Blake Sullivan.
00:17:03I'm the senior vice president of Stellar.
00:17:05I don't fly across the city of Skim and nobody like you.
00:17:08Listen, I'm so...
00:17:09Ms. Harper, this is the employee you hire?
00:17:13He'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...
00:17:26He's stressy.
00:17:27He didn't mean...
00:17:27Save it.
00:17:28You take care of Mr. Clark's compensation first.
00:17:32You, if you dispute evaluations, we can settle it in court.
00:17:35My legal team has 965 lawyers.
00:17:39I'd love to teach you a lesson.
00:17:43Stellar's legal team is legendary.
00:17:45He never lost.
00:17:47Damien can't fight this.
00:17:48Hell, the entire Harper Enterprise doesn't have the resources to fight this.
00:17:53He's done for.
00:17:56So may I help?
00:17:57Please.
00:18:02Please.
00:18:05Mr. Sullivan, Harper Enterprise will provide full compensation.
00:18:10Will that suffice?
00:18:11I'm just here to certify facts.
00:18:14You 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.
00:18:29Mr. Sullivan, are our partners...
00:18:30Ms. Harper, get your house in order first.
00:18:34Stellar has standards.
00:18:36We don't partner with clown shows.
00:18:38That'll be all.
00:18:39Mr. Sullivan!
00:18:40Oh, that's funny.
00:18:42Damien's lucky, huh?
00:18:43A hundred million on the line and you swoop in the cover for him.
00:18:47You 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.
00:19:01Julianna, I give you my word.
00:19:03The 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.
00:19:13You hear that, Julian?
00:19:15You know, I'll admit it.
00:19:16Yeah, 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.
00:19:37But 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.
00:20:21I'm the one in charge here.
00:20:24Security, remove him.
00:20:28Julian, please, don't make us get physical.
00:20:31I'm the one Chairman Harper personally brought in.
00:20:33You really want to lay hands on me?
00:20:34Ha, ha, ha, ha.
00:20:35Chairman Harper brought you in.
00:20:38Julian, have you lost your fucking mind?
00:20:40Who do you think you are?
00:20:42You, you, you 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.
00:20:55Looks like I don't need that phone call.
00:20:57Still running your mouth, huh?
00:20:59Move.
00:20:59Get him the fuck out of here.
00:21:00Hey.
00:21:01Hey.
00:21:02Hey.
00:21:03Hey.
00:21:05What the hell is going on in here?
00:21:07Here's my problem.
00:21:09Stand down.
00:21:10All of you.
00:21:11You, out of here.
00:21:13Now.
00:21:13Dad, Grandpa, what 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.
00:21:34Chairman 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?
00:21:47Shut up.
00:21:56How 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.
00:22:11And I didn't want to hurt your feelings.
00:22:12We 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, now!
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!
00:23:02Sylvina, enough!
00:23:03Julian, she's just being foolish.
00:23:05Let me apologize.
00:23:06Say that.
00:23:08If Sylvina 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.
00:23:20Cease 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?
00:23:33Oh, no, no, no, no, no.
00:23:34What?
00:23:35Oh, I guess you could have just pulled out orders.
00:23:38What do you mean, hostile takeover?
00:23:40All of our investors 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?
00:23:52My entire division just stopped.
00:23:54We can't operate like this.
00:23:55A stunning reversal.
00:23:57Harper Enterprise's many allies withdraw their investments in an instant, leaving the group
00:24:02facing massive losses.
00:24:04Could it be all these months the company's been supported by Julian?
00:24:08Shocking Wall Street.
00:24:10Why 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, Sherita, 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.
00:24:32And 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 it's continuous, the stock 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?
00:24:51I won't accept this.
00:24:52I won't!
00:24:53Serena, how can you stand there and watch Harper Enterprises burn to the ground around your feet?
00:24:59Apologize to Julian.
00:25:00No!
00:25:04Serena, apologize.
00:25:08Serena.
00:25:19Serena, do not apologize.
00:25:21Harper Enterprises worth hundreds of billions of dollars.
00:25:24You 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.
00:25:32Oh, fucking no!
00:25:33Oh!
00:25:35No, you're fucking fault.
00:25:36You apologize to Julian right now and get 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.
00:25:52No!
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.
00:26:11Wait, you 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?
00:26:26Oh, I...
00:26:29But you hate bullies, right?
00:26:32Yeah, you're no saint.
00:26:34You'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.
00:26:42You know, because I thought we should at least get to know each other.
00:26:44Every time I have asked you out, you said,
00:26:47I'm too busy with work.
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 fiancé?
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?
00:27:21So what if I did?
00:27:23Who 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.
00:27:39And when Harper first went public, he was a key reason that we made it.
00:27:43If you had even half his talent, Julian, maybe 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, all 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, the banks rolled out a special fast track for you?
00:28:13Because Damien is brilliant.
00:28:15Because he has cleared every obstacle in my way.
00:28:18Damien?
00:28:19Brilliant?
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.
00:28:42Eyes up, Serena.
00:28:44In the past six months, I've called in 47 separate connections and 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, Northbridge, and even Silver Line.
00:28:56Those are all the top 50 global giants.
00:28:58They've all been begging us behind the scenes?
00:29:01No wonder every project went so smoothly.
00:29:03Julian is 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.
00:29:14It's not true, huh?
00:29:15Harper Enterprise is what it is because of me and 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?
00:29:32All right, that's enough.
00:29:34I finally got the all clear for my grandfather.
00:29:36I can go home.
00:29:38So, as of right now, our engagement is terminated.
00:29:41Julian, all of this has been our fault.
00:29:44But the engagement...
00:29:45Let him go.
00:29:46I don't need a fiancé who uses his family background to wreck people.
00:29:52Without my connections and my network, Harper 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.
00:30:07Julian.
00:30:07That's it.
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 and I'm going to give her everything that I've
00:30:29got.
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.
00:30:36Dad?
00:30:37Grandpa?
00:30:38I know you have your issues with Damien.
00:30:41But 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.
00:31:00God.
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.
00:31:13But as long as we lock down Amber Group's Crescent Lake Project, change the game, and everyone will still think
00:31:18that we're in control.
00:31:19Easy.
00:31:20The $3 billion Crescent Lake Project.
00:31:24If 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, and 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.
00:31:37You don't even count on me.
00:31:39Amber Group's deputy VP of projects.
00:31:41I mean, you trust me clearly.
00:31:44He else has been his eyes.
00:31:52Get the Crescent Lake contract ready.
00:31:54Same as always.
00:31:56Once 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, and then Serena personally pushed Julian out.
00:32:17Serena really thinks she got where she is 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?
00:32:27Without Julian, Harper Enterprise really thinks it's worthy of Crescent Lake?
00:32:31Not a chance.
00:32:33Open it to public video.
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, what does this mean, huh?
00:33:07Mr. 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.
00:33:26Oh my, Damien.
00:33:27You're too kind.
00:33:29Sure, it's a public bidding on paper, but, uh, as long as I'm here, you've got nothing to worry about.
00:33:37Sit tight.
00:33:39Contract's yours.
00:33:42Miss Larson usually hands Harper Enterprises whatever they want anyway.
00:33:47Well, thank you very much, Mr. Brooks.
00:34:16Well, wow.
00:34:19Friends, Jillian.
00:34:22All right, Serena kicked you out.
00:34:24Six months of hard work down the drain.
00:34:28What does that feel?
00:34:30Oh, I see.
00:34:31So you brought me to your party just to mock me a little bit.
00:34:34Is that right?
00:34:35Of course.
00:34:37Not too.
00:34:39I'm here to steal you.
00:34:42You see?
00:34:43Since your engagement is off, I was thinking, how about you consider me, huh?
00:34:54Guys 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
00:35:06actually knows you?
00:35:07You see?
00:35:09Childhood friends, same circles, 15 years of school.
00:35:16We match, you know?
00:35:19We fit.
00:35:21Hang on.
00:35:23Nora, are you saying this because you're drunk?
00:35:25Or do you...
00:35:26Shh.
00:35:34I'm not drunk.
00:35:35Good.
00:35:36You don't have to answer me tonight.
00:35:38Just think about it.
00:35:40Hmm?
00:35:44What?
00:35:50Oh, my Jesus.
00:35:55Oh, my God.
00:36:03Oh, my God.
00:36:11I told you, I'm not drunk.
00:36:13All right, your swimsuit fell off.
00:36:16Oh, shit.
00:36:17I'm drunk.
00:36:19All right, your swimsuit fell off.
00:36:22Oh, shit.
00:36:23I'm drunk.
00:36:39Miss Lawson, Amber Group's distinguished CEO.
00:36:42Allow me the pleasure of introducing myself.
00:36:46Oh, I am so sorry.
00:36:48Bad, bad timing.
00:36:49Truly terrible timing.
00:36:59Don't move.
00:37:00If that jacket slips for you in a second, you're finished.
00:37:03Okay, aren't you worried about tomorrow's headlines?
00:37:06Amber Group's CEO get caught in a scandal at a pool party?
00:37:09Rumor to warm those tomorrow's company's visibility,
00:37:12but I'm not letting the pictures of my breasts go through.
00:37:15Okay.
00:37:17Okay.
00:37:20But if you stay through to me like this for the rest of the night,
00:37:26I think my heart's going to sink around this chest.
00:37:41And suffer.
00:37:43Okay?
00:37:44If you push me, I will toss you into a little ice crusher.
00:37:53Please, just walk with me to the nearest changing room, okay?
00:38:11Speak of the devil, of all good times.
00:38:19You know, this is a private party for Amber Group's CEO.
00:38:22You know what I lost?
00:38:23Not exactly the kind of place where anybody could just wander into.
00:38:27Oh, wait.
00:38:30Well, well.
00:38:32I mean, your engagement ends and you move on in record time.
00:38:36Feelings for Serena weren't that deep after all.
00:38:39Can I help you with something?
00:38:42Seriously?
00:38:43This woman's even prettier than Serena.
00:38:45How does a loser like Julian always get women?
00:38:47I guess your taste hasn't improved.
00:38:50Whatever bargain bin date you dragged here,
00:38:52she's nothing compared to Serena.
00:38:56Pouring herself out like this?
00:38:59It's me all digger.
00:39:00Is that so?
00:39:02Now I hear your company's looking to bid on Amber Group's Christmas Eve project.
00:39:09What, you're bidding too?
00:39:11Yeah, I know you got connection.
00:39:12And that's great and all.
00:39:13But you're still a useless fucking piece of trash.
00:39:16Me, I got real talent.
00:39:17All right, and I'm going to win Crescent Lake for Serena.
00:39:20You, you're just going to fucking lose like you lose everything else.
00:39:24Good luck.
00:39:36See that?
00:39:37That is a shameless whore.
00:39:40That woman seems familiar.
00:39:43Samantha, you don't even know anyone that cheap.
00:39:46All right, come on.
00:39:47Let's enjoy the rest of the party.
00:39:48Let's go socialize,
00:39:49and maybe we'll run into the host of the party lost in yourself.
00:39:53And if we do,
00:39:55I'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 going to see who's really on top.
00:40:22Okay.
00:40:23Manners, this is a public event.
00:40:25What?
00:40:27You've known me since we were kids.
00:40:28Why would I pretend around you?
00:40:31But, if you like Lassie, I can do Lassie.
00:40:35Oh, can you?
00:40:36Mm-hmm.
00:40:36You can do Lassie?
00:40:37Yeah.
00:40:38Miss Lasson, it's an honor to see you here today.
00:40:46I'll let you get to it.
00:40:51Shall we?
00:41:08Julia.
00:41:11I'm surprised you showed up.
00:41:13You really love to humiliate yourself, huh?
00:41:17You know what?
00:41:19Mason Brooks, Amber Group's Deputy VP of Projects,
00:41:22already agreed to award the contract to Harper Enterprise.
00:41:27You can't win.
00:41:31I hear the Crescent Lake Project is basically yours.
00:41:34Congratulations.
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.
00:41:45You know, we're going to 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,
00:42:07and a stronger global record than Harper Enterprise,
00:42:10so I'm just curious.
00:42:12Why would Mason Brooks go with you guys?
00:42:13He recognizes Damien's talent, of course.
00:42:21I need to take this.
00:42:29What century are you living in?
00:42:35You really think that capital and technology wins contracts anymore?
00:42:38Then what does?
00:42:40I ain't really that fucking stupid.
00:42:42Of course this.
00:42:45I paid Mason Brooks one million in crypto.
00:42:48What do you have that's going to be that?
00:42:51You paid Mason Brooks?
00:42:54That's impossible.
00:42:55He wouldn't dare.
00:42:56That's impossible.
00:42:57He wouldn't dare.
00:42:58Yeah, you want to 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,
00:43:08and give us a nice little poll show.
00:43:10Hey.
00:43:10Hey, I'm going to tell you.
00:43:11You want to know why I keep winning Amber Group deals?
00:43:16Because every time I give Mason Brooks a nice little fortune,
00:43:22capital technology is useless.
00:43:25Fucking trash!
00:43:28Mason Brooks, you've got a lot of nerve.
00:43:30He'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?
00:43:38You're the Amber Group CEO or something?
00:43:41Who gave you the fucking guts?
00:43:43It's adorable, no?
00:43:44Amber Group's anti-corruption code did.
00:43:47Anti-anti-corruption?
00:43:50Hmm?
00:44:02What are you going to report, Mr. Brooks?
00:44:04Hmm?
00:44:07You hit me.
00:44:09You think you put your fucking hands on me?
00:44:12I'm going to have Mason Brooks crush you with one phone call.
00:44:17There he is.
00:44:18Mr. Brooks is here.
00:44:19You're finished.
00:44:22Mr. Brooks.
00:44:23What do you mean, my friend?
00:44:25There's a woman here.
00:44:26She says she's going to report to you.
00:44:27Come on, please, teach her a lesson.
00:44:28Oh, report me?
00:44:30Which idiot has the nerve?
00:44:32This woman right here.
00:44:36Miss Lawson?
00:44:37She's even quoted the anti-corruption code like she's somebody.
00:44:40Like, how fucking ridiculous.
00:44:42What?
00:44:43What?
00:44:46This can't be...
00:44:50Go ahead, laugh.
00:44:51Laugh some more.
00:44:52Are you insane, Damien?
00:44:54You'll say anything out loud.
00:44:56Mr. Brooks, what do you mean?
00:44:56She's just a gold-dicking whore.
00:44:58I mean, even if she rats you out, who's going to believe this?
00:45:02Why are you hitting me?
00:45:03Shut your fucking mouth.
00:45:05When did I ever take your money?
00:45:07I never took one cent.
00:45:09Say it again, and I'll bury you.
00:45:12Idiots!
00:45:12Mr. Brooks, what are you doing?
00:45:15Miss Lawson, this Damien, he's a lunatic.
00:45:18He's making things up.
00:45:20Don't listen to him.
00:45:21I swear, I never took one dollar from him.
00:45:24Not once!
00:45:27Miss Lawson?
00:45:30No, no, wait.
00:45:32You're Nora Lawson?
00:45:33Amber's group CEO?
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!
00:45:49Shut 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?
00:46:06Miss Lawson?
00:46:07She's Nora Lawson?
00:46:11She's Nora Lawson?
00:46:12The Crescent Lake Project?
00:46:14Harper Enterprise is out.
00:46:16You can leave now.
00:46:20Miss Lawson, I am so sorry.
00:46:23Damien didn't know who you were, so he thought that you and Julian were being inappropriate.
00:46:30But I'll make him apologize right now.
00:46:33He is blunt, yes.
00:46:35But his ability is exceptional.
00:46:39Please, give Harper Enterprise the contract and I promise we will deliver results that satisfy you.
00:46:46Exceptional ability?
00:46:47Are you sure about that?
00:46:49Of course.
00:46:51If 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.
00:47:09I secure every project right.
00:47:11She's upset because I mistook her for a whore.
00:47:13So she wants revenge.
00:47:15So she's going to 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.
00:47:30Serena, please!
00:47:30Okay?
00:47:31I'm sorry.
00:47:32Here we go now.
00:47:34Alright?
00:47:34I'll get you bigger projects, the biggest ones.
00:47:36But 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?
00:48:05And escort.
00:48:06So why don't you do us all a nice little favor?
00:48:08Get up on that stage.
00:48:09Give us a nice little 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?
00:48:23All of the best Amber projects being sent to Harper Enterprise over the past six months.
00:48:27And now we know they were bought.
00:48:32That's not true.
00:48:33All of that's a lie.
00:48:34Just don't...
00:48:34Just don't...
00:48:35Don't believe it.
00:48:35I...
00:48:35Just turn it up.
00:48:36Turn it up right 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?
00:48:47Master, I mean, please just see us.
00:48:49Mr. Brooks' man said...
00:48:51What a fucking ridiculous thing to say.
00:48:53Who are you to say anything?
00:48:54What do you think?
00:48:55You're Amber Group CEO?
00:48:57Amber...
00:48:58Turn it off, please.
00:49:00It's okay.
00:49:00Okay, Ms. Lawson, please just turn it off.
00:49:02Just...
00:49:03Please stop it!
00:49:04Please!
00:49:05Please!
00:49:06Bribery is one thing, but mistaking Ms. Lawson for an escort?
00:49:10A whore?
00:49:12He's fucking blind.
00:49:14The 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 happy.
00:49:33Can you tell me the truth?
00:49:34Enough.
00:49:36Everyone has seen enough.
00:49:38Mason Brooks, you're fired.
00:49:40Effective immediately.
00:49:43I'm done.
00:49:44The Crescent Lake Project.
00:49:48Harper 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.
00:50:00No, no, you can't do that.
00:50:02Those projects are our next three years.
00:50:04They affect thousands of employees.
00:50:06Their lives are future.
00:50:08And why am the person who hired Trash and called it talent?
00:50:13Real tell.
00:50:20Pathetic.
00:50:25Serena.
00:50:28Please, you gotta let me explain.
00:50:31Miss Lawson, wait.
00:50:33Serena.
00:50:42I just avenged you in front of a lot of people.
00:50:45Asking for our dinner isn't too much, right?
00:50:48Not at all.
00:50:49You pick.
00:50:50My treat.
00:50:51Generous.
00:50:52Let's go.
00:50:53Time to rob the tycoon.
00:50:57Miss Lawson, Damien was wrong to bribe anyone, and I apologize on his behalf.
00:51:05Just please, give Harper Enterprise another chance.
00:51:10I will meet the highest standards.
00:51:12I will deliver a perfect result on every project.
00:51:16Perfect result?
00:51:17And what exactly guarantees that?
00:51:20Your empty suit assistant?
00:51:22Miss Lawson.
00:51:24Damien made a mistake.
00:51:27But his ability is exceptional.
00:51:30For six months, he managed every Harper Enterprise project flawlessly.
00:51:34No errors, no delays.
00:51:36If you don't pull this contract, I guarantee he will make sure you see his value.
00:51:44Managed flawlessly?
00:51:46He's not the only empty suit here.
00:51:49Year two.
00:51:51Miss Lawson, you are crossing a line.
00:51:56I understand that you and Julian are close, and you want to get back at me for him.
00:52:01But humiliating someone like this, isn't that a little cruel?
00:52:04You really think I froze our cooperation because Damien and Bribe Mason?
00:52:10Wasn't that the reason?
00:52:12For six months, Harper Enterprise got everything it wanted from Ember Group.
00:52:19For one reason.
00:52:21Julian, Julian Clark, Damien, has nothing to do with that.
00:52:27He was just a messenger boy who picked up the contracts.
00:52:30What?
00:52:31When Julian was there, bribe or no bribe, Harper Enterprise got the deals anyway.
00:52:37But now, Julian's gone, so the special treatment is gone.
00:52:42Damien's little arriving incident?
00:52:44It was just a convenient excuse to take everything back.
00:52:48Understand now?
00:52:52And about those flawless projects, Harper Enterprise didn't run smoothly because Damien is brilliant.
00:53:00It ran smoothly because Julian called every partner, every supplier, every gatekeeper, and cleared the path for you.
00:53:09Damien had nothing to do with that.
00:53:13No.
00:53:15That's not true.
00:53:16I don't believe in you.
00:53:18You don't believe me?
00:53:19Then watch.
00:53:20Watch what happens when Julian leaves.
00:53:24Let's see if your exceptional Damien can keep everything perfect when Julian is not there to hold the world together
00:53:31for you.
00:53:33Come on, let's go.
00:53:42Julian, is what she's saying true?
00:53:45You were right about one thing, Serena.
00:53:48Julian and I are closer than you thought.
00:53:50That's why it disgusted me watching him waste his life away on a selfish and blind woman like you.
00:54:01Was I wrong?
00:54:02No, no, no, Serena, Serena, do not listen to her nonsense.
00:54:05Harper's success is based off of my hard work.
00:54:09Okay, Nora Lawson, she's attacking and slandering my name to defend Julian.
00:54:14You have to believe me.
00:54:15Please, you have to understand.
00:54:16Because of you, Crescent Lake is gone.
00:54:20Every Amber project is gone.
00:54:22Harper Enterprise is on the edge of collapse and you're asking me to trust you?
00:54:27How?
00:54:28Tell me how.
00:54:30Please, just listen to me.
00:54:32Okay, yeah, we lost Amber Group, but we're not finished.
00:54:35I mean, we still have the partners and the CEOs.
00:54:37I mean, they love me.
00:54:38They absolutely love and adore me.
00:54:41I promise.
00:54:42You know what?
00:54:42Matter of fact, I'm going to call and I'm going to get you some new projects right now.
00:54:49Hello, Mr. Foster.
00:54:50It's Damien here.
00:54:51I hear the Grandview Plaza is taking bids and Harper Enterprise, you know, we would absolutely love.
00:54:57Harper Enterprise?
00:54:58Who the hell is that?
00:55:00Do you think you're even in the same league as Grandview Plaza?
00:55:05Mr. Foster, what do you mean?
00:55:08Last time we spoke, you said that you believed in the Harper Enterprise and that you would love to work
00:55:13together.
00:55:13Listen up.
00:55:14That's because Julian Clark was in your damn Enterprise.
00:55:18I was giving him respect.
00:55:20You don't flatter yourself, bunch of blind dumbasses.
00:55:24Call me again and I'll block your fucking number.
00:55:27So what really was Julian?
00:55:28No, no.
00:55:29That's not possible.
00:55:31I don't believe that.
00:55:32I don't.
00:55:33Hello, Mr. Parker.
00:55:35It's Damien.
00:55:35I was hoping to talk about future collaborations.
00:55:38Damien, you've got the fucking nerve to call me.
00:55:41I gave Harper Enterprise projects because of Mr. Clark.
00:55:44And then you turned around and claimed you closed the deal?
00:55:48Who gave you the audacity?
00:55:50Shameless trash?
00:55:54Mr. Parker.
00:55:56Mr. Parker, no.
00:55:58No, God damn it.
00:55:59No, I don't believe this.
00:56:01I don't believe this.
00:56:02Fucking Julian this whole fucking time.
00:56:05God damn it.
00:56:06Sorry, sorry.
00:56:08Hello?
00:56:09Mr. Turner, it's Damien.
00:56:11Damien, who do you think you are, huh?
00:56:14Calling me directly?
00:56:15Learn some manners.
00:56:18Julian was polite enough to tolerate you playing sideman with his fiancee.
00:56:22I'm not, you bastard tooey.
00:56:26Mr. Turner?
00:56:27Mr. Turner, please.
00:56:31What the fuck is happening?
00:56:32What the fuck is happening?
00:56:39Ms. Harper?
00:56:40This is bad.
00:56:42Our partners are flooding us with messages.
00:56:44They're suspending contracts, pulling out of steel.
00:56:46Wait, what is happening?
00:56:48They said before they only worked with Harper Enterprise because Julian Clark backed us.
00:56:53Now that he's gone, they don't trust us with their project.
00:56:56Julian.
00:56:58It's Julian again.
00:57:03So it's true.
00:57:05They only gave us deals because of Julian.
00:57:10Julian!
00:57:10No, no, no, no, no.
00:57:11Swina, please, okay?
00:57:12They're just saying that because Julian has been paying them off.
00:57:15Think about it, okay?
00:57:16You know what?
00:57:16Just give me some time and I'll get you some new projects.
00:57:19I'll get you some new projects.
00:57:20I swear.
00:57:21Get away from me!
00:57:23You liar, you fraud, Damien!
00:57:26All those CEOs!
00:57:28They only had you pick up contracts from them.
00:57:31And you told me you negotiated the deals.
00:57:34I swear, I didn't know that they would.
00:57:39Get out of my sight.
00:57:40Get out of my sight.
00:57:42Yeah!
00:57:59Fuck!
00:58:00Damn it! No! I was this close to locking Serena down, stepping into the upper circle. I'm not letting it
00:58:06end like this.
00:58:12Serena, you really thought you were smart. But you're really just pathetic trash. Without Julian, you're nothing.
00:58:33Dad warned you. Grandpa warned you. And you still wouldn't listen.
00:58:42You ignored everything Julian did and worshipped a con artist like Damien.
00:58:51Stupid.
00:59:00And now look at you. Projects gone. Company collapsing.
00:59:10Idiot. You arrogant. Stupid. Idiot.
00:59:16I'm so stupid.
00:59:23Julian, I'm sorry.
00:59:32I'm so sorry.
00:59:33Sorry, listen.
00:59:36I know I messed up.
00:59:39Whoa!
00:59:44Julian, I'm sorry.
00:59:47I know, I know, I'm sorry.
00:59:49Come on.
00:59:49Look.
00:59:50Always damn Julian!
00:59:53Julian.
00:59:56Come back, okay?
00:59:59Please come back.
01:00:04Damn back.
01:00:09You don't have to be scared.
01:00:12Harper Enterprise's business queen.
01:00:14So much better than those cheap girls.
01:00:17Once I lock her down, Harper Enterprise is mine.
01:00:22Damien! You sick bastard!
01:00:25You sick bastard!
01:00:30I really mean it.
01:00:32I love you.
01:00:33You fucking hell.
01:00:34Get off me.
01:00:35Hey, I'm telling you the truth.
01:00:36I mean it.
01:00:37Okay?
01:00:38I promise.
01:00:39I'll treat you well.
01:00:43You fucking monster.
01:00:45Get off me, please.
01:00:47I'm begging you, don't.
01:00:48Say yes.
01:00:50What are you doing?
01:00:55I'm fucking dead.
01:00:58I tried being nice to you.
01:01:00I fucking tried.
01:01:01But you keep biting me back.
01:01:03No!
01:01:03No!
01:01:04Keep screaming, huh?
01:01:05Keep fucking screaming!
01:01:07Right?
01:01:09You're not gonna say no.
01:01:11I'm gonna fuck you.
01:01:12No!
01:01:13No!
01:01:14Help!
01:01:14Help!
01:01:16Julian!
01:01:17Julian, help!
01:01:21Get him out of here!
01:01:23Stop!
01:01:24Let me go!
01:01:25Julian, you know it's been in the fucking place.
01:01:27This isn't over.
01:01:32Julian!
01:01:33Julian!
01:01:34Thank God you came and you had like-
01:01:36We are not that close.
01:01:40I was just passing through, I heard some screaming so I stopped by to check.
01:01:44You.
01:01:45I 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'm 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.
01:02:13I told you over and over and over again that Damien was not a good man.
01:02:22And you refused to listen.
01:02:24Julian!
01:02:26And 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, one day, you live to regret it.
01:02:41Dad, Grandpa, please, stop.
01:02:43I know I was wrong, okay?
01:02:46I'll...
01:02:47I'll apologize to Julian and I will follow through with the engagement.
01:02:55The problem with that is that you may feel that way, but Julian might not.
01:03:01Grandpa...
01:03:02Don't worry.
01:03:04I will apologize properly and I will earn his forgiveness.
01:03:10That's all we can do.
01:03:13So, John, put out a city-wide bolo on that bastard Damien.
01:03:20He put his hands on my granddaughter.
01:03:22We'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?
01:04:08A gift for you.
01:04:10Myself.
01:04:12I'll give you 30% equity.
01:04:14Every group backs you up.
01:04:16No questions asked.
01:04:18But first, you have to accept the gift.
01:04:22Not really.
01:04:32Hey, can 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,
01:04:44pounced me by now.
01:04:46Don't tell me you're still hung up on Serena.
01:04:50Hung 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.
01:05:03But I don't have time.
01:05:06My family is preparing to send me off into a European alliance.
01:05:11Some old money.
01:05:14Perfect match they can show off at Gallas.
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. I love you.
01:05:30Julian, let's make it official. Let's get married.
01:05:38You know, if you'll marry me, my family won't dare object.
01:05:45Please, Julian.
01:05:57Okay.
01:05:59I'll marry you.
01:06:00Are you serious?
01:06:02No take-backs.
01:06:03No take-backs.
01:06:04Ever.
01:06:05Ever.
01:06:05I knew you wouldn't abandon me.
01:06:08But can you help me out?
01:06:12My 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.
01:06:41Julian, 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.
01:07:20Just give me one more chance and I'll honor the engagement.
01:07:24And if you take me back, just tell me what you want. I'll do anything.
01:07:28I'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?
01:07:57Men 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.
01:08:16We're trying on our wedding outfits tonight. Let's not be late.
01:08:19Wedding outfits.
01:08:23Let's go.
01:08:28Let's go.
01:08:37So how did it go? Julian?
01:08:41He's with Nora.
01:08:47Nora. Nora Lawson.
01:08:48He's the CEO of Amber Group.
01:08:51Of course.
01:08:52You know, Serena, he's an elite like Julian.
01:08:56The second you let go, somebody comes and grabs him.
01:09:00You don't get another chance.
01:09:02God gave our family a chance.
01:09:04And we blew it.
01:09:07God, forgive the Harpers.
01:09:09Please.
01:09:12Ms. Hopper, Finance sent the latest reports.
01:09:15Hopper 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.
01:09:24Great.
01:09:25Now all of Wall Street knows that we crossed Julian.
01:09:29That wasn't going to lend to us now.
01:09:31How are we supposed to get financing?
01:09:33This is my fault, okay?
01:09:35I was blind. Are you proud now?
01:09:39I actually believed I was some business queen.
01:09:43I didn't realize that Julian was running everything.
01:09:47And the moment he's gone, I can't do anything.
01:09:51Dad, Grandpa, I'm so sorry.
01:09:55I ruined Harper Enterprise.
01:09:58I ruined everything.
01:10:00Dad, you're the one who arranged the engagement with Julian's grandfather, right?
01:10:05So maybe you should go talk to him and see if he'll give us a second chance.
01:10:10Yes, Grandpa.
01:10:12Julian listens to his grandfather.
01:10:14If 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.
01:10:25And that was a mercy.
01:10:26That was a blessing.
01:10:28But you threw it away.
01:10:33Still.
01:10:35For your sake and for your future.
01:10:37And for our future.
01:10:40We'll fight.
01:10:46Serena.
01:10:48When you see Julian's grandfather,
01:10:51your apology has to be sincere.
01:10:55If he forgives you, only then will you know that you have a chance to get Julian back.
01:11:02Understood, Grandpa.
01:11:04For the Harper family, I'll do whatever it takes.
01:11:22Welcome.
01:11:24You must be here for Mr. Clark and Ms. Lawson's engagement party.
01:11:28Perfect timing.
01:11:30They're just about to start.
01:11:32Engagement party?
01:11:34So 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.
01:11:51Get him and come here to congratulate them, right?
01:11:56Then, please leave.
01:11:58Otherwise, 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.
01:12:17There's no more chances left.
01:12:19We're leaving.
01:12:21Is this my punishment?
01:12:23Is this my punishment?
01:12:25Is this my punishment?
01:12:25All right, everyone.
01:12:27Big smiles.
01:12:30Julian!
01:12:45Are you okay?
01:12:46Hey.
01:12:47I'm sorry.
01:12:48I'm sorry.
01:12:49I'm sorry.
01:12:52What is it?
01:12:54It's nothing. Come on. Dinner's almost ready.
01:13:10Dad!
01:13:11The Harpers!
01:13:13My grandson
01:13:14grew up with everything.
01:13:18For him
01:13:19at six months at Harper Enterprise,
01:13:23it was a total humiliation.
01:13:26We've shown that Harper
01:13:27more mercy than he ever deserved.
01:13:31Understood, Dad.
01:13:40Okay, enough, Serena.
01:13:42Stop. You can't drink this
01:13:44away. Harper Enterprise
01:13:46is hanging on by a thread.
01:13:47If you don't get up,
01:13:49it's over.
01:13:51Just leave me the fuck alone.
01:13:54Okay? Just let me drink.
01:13:55I'm the fucking idiot who ruined everything.
01:13:58I wrecked Harper Enterprise.
01:13:59No, you...
01:14:02All right.
01:14:03I've got to take this.
01:14:04Don't move.
01:14:05I'll be right back,
01:14:06and then I am taking you home.
01:14:09I am taking you home.
01:14:17Laura.
01:14:20Okay, Laura.
01:14:22Be honest.
01:14:23You're moving insanely fast.
01:14:25You just got engaged
01:14:27and you're getting married next week?
01:14:30Let's see.
01:14:31You've known Julian for 20-plus years.
01:14:34You couldn't wait a couple more months?
01:14:36I've liked Julian for 20 years,
01:14:38and I finally got him to say yes.
01:14:41You think I'm not going to lock it down now?
01:14:42Lock it down from what?
01:14:44From Harper Enterprise, of course.
01:14:46They're collapsing
01:14:47and treating Julian like a lifeboat.
01:14:50But I have to move fast.
01:14:52If they start begging,
01:14:55what if Julian hesitates?
01:14:57But Julian and Serena were forced into that.
01:15:00There's no real love.
01:15:02Why will Julian hesitate?
01:15:03What are you afraid of?
01:15:05You don't get it.
01:15:07Julian stayed at Harper Enterprise for six months,
01:15:11and it wasn't just because his grandfather would order it.
01:15:13Then why?
01:15:17Because Serena...
01:15:19is his type.
01:15:21Wait, what?
01:15:24I am Julian's type?
01:15:28No way!
01:15:29I'm serious.
01:15:30The girls Julian liked growing up?
01:15:33That exact type.
01:15:35I mean, with his personality,
01:15:38even if his grandfather forced him,
01:15:40he would have stayed there for three days max
01:15:42and then vanished.
01:15:43He would not stay there
01:15:45and take six months of humiliation
01:15:48if he didn't want it to.
01:15:49That's Julian Clark.
01:15:51So that's why?
01:15:53Serena must have destroyed him.
01:15:55I have to get married fast.
01:15:58I cannot give her a single chance.
01:16:00So that's what it was.
01:16:03Julian stayed at Harper Enterprise for six months
01:16:05because I'm his type.
01:16:06He likes me.
01:16:07That means
01:16:08I still have a chance.
01:16:10I still have a chance.
01:16:12This is my last shot.
01:16:13I am not wasting it.
01:16:22Where is she?
01:16:28Ladies and gentlemen,
01:16:30let's welcome the beautiful bride.
01:16:45Wow, they look perfect together.
01:16:48They're childhood sweethearts.
01:16:50The whole fantasy.
01:16:51Oh my God, brilliant!
01:16:54And now for the exchange of rings.
01:17:16Serena, what are you doing here?
01:17:19Who is that?
01:17:21Is that Serena Harper?
01:17:22CEO of Harper Enterprise?
01:17:24You mean the woman who rode on Julian's back to the IPO
01:17:27and then kicked him out like he was nothing?
01:17:29Without Julian,
01:17:30Harper Enterprise is basically bankrupt.
01:17:33Pathetic.
01:17:34Wait!
01:17:36Serena, what are you doing here?
01:17:40Julian,
01:17:42I know you like me.
01:17:44You wouldn't have stayed at Harper Enterprise
01:17:45for six months humiliated if you didn't.
01:17:52I know.
01:17:53I was wrong.
01:17:54Totally wrong, okay?
01:17:56Just please.
01:17:57Give me another chance.
01:18:02Our engagement is over.
01:18:04In fact, you were the one that called it off.
01:18:07Look, this is my wedding.
01:18:09Have some dignity.
01:18:10In fact, can we get her out of here, please?
01:18:12No, please.
01:18:13I'll do anything.
01:18:15Just stop.
01:18:20I know you hate me
01:18:22because I rejected you 37 times,
01:18:25but I'll make it up to you.
01:18:28I'll chase you 37 times,
01:18:30370 times,
01:18:31whatever it did.
01:18:33Can we please get her out?
01:18:35No, don't touch me!
01:18:37Julian,
01:18:38what do you want from me?
01:18:39I know you like me,
01:18:40so why won't you give me another chance?
01:18:42Why?
01:18:43Why?
01:18:47Simple question.
01:18:49Do you love me?
01:18:52I...
01:18:53Exactly.
01:18:54You don't.
01:18:56You didn't realize you made a mistake.
01:18:57You realized that Harper Enterprise is dying.
01:19:01What you want is not a chance,
01:19:03but a tool.
01:19:05You want me back
01:19:05so you can be Wall Street's business queen again, huh?
01:19:09No, that, that...
01:19:11That's not true.
01:19:13Just please.
01:19:15Listen.
01:19:16Please, listen.
01:19:17Enough.
01:19:17Serena.
01:19:18When you threw me out of Harper Enterprise,
01:19:19do you remember how cold and arrogant you were?
01:19:23Let me ask you this.
01:19:24If Harper Enterprise had not collapsed,
01:19:27if your value kept climbing,
01:19:29would you still be here standing in front of me today?
01:19:33I...
01:19:34I...
01:19:34No, I...
01:19:35No, you wouldn't.
01:19:35You absolutely wouldn't.
01:19:37You'd be celebrating.
01:19:39You'd say that you earned the business queen a crown.
01:19:41You'd be mocking me, calling me pathetic.
01:19:43You'd say that firing me was the best decision you ever made.
01:19:46Plus, you'd still be with that asshole Damien.
01:19:49No.
01:19:50No, Juliana.
01:19:52That's not me.
01:19:54Just admit it, Serena.
01:19:56You don't feel anything for me.
01:19:58But on my wedding day,
01:19:59you show up like some tragic devoted lover.
01:20:01Why?
01:20:02Because you want me back as your lifeline.
01:20:04Your donor.
01:20:05Your goddamn blood supply.
01:20:08But the moment I stop being useful,
01:20:10you will kick me away again without a moment's hesitation.
01:20:13No.
01:20:15No, Juliana.
01:20:16That is not true.
01:20:18The night that you saved me from Damien,
01:20:21I...
01:20:23I felt something for you.
01:20:24I did.
01:20:26Stop.
01:20:26Do not perform at my wedding.
01:20:29You don't regret hurting me.
01:20:30You regret choosing the wrong man.
01:20:32You regret that Harper Enterprise is dying.
01:20:35You know, I'll admit,
01:20:36when I met you,
01:20:38you were exactly my type.
01:20:41But once I got to know you,
01:20:43once I realized what you really are,
01:20:45all I felt was disgust.
01:20:48But Nora?
01:20:49Nora?
01:20:52She has cared for me since we were kids.
01:20:56When I was sick,
01:20:58she stayed up all night taking care of me.
01:21:01When I was at my lowest,
01:21:02she pulled me back up.
01:21:04Even when I went back to Harper Enterprise on the engagement,
01:21:08she still supported me.
01:21:10She still took hits from me.
01:21:15So, let me ask you.
01:21:18Why would I give up all that for you?
01:21:22What makes you think you deserve that?
01:21:29Get her out.
01:21:30No, no.
01:21:31No, please don't, Julian.
01:21:33Don't, don't, please.
01:21:34I'm begging you.
01:21:35Just please let me explain.
01:21:37Please.
01:21:38Please, please, please.
01:21:39Don't let me go.
01:21:40Julian, please don't do it.
01:21:42Crashing a wedding like that?
01:21:44I thought she actually loved him.
01:21:46Turns out,
01:21:47she just realized,
01:21:48without Julian,
01:21:49she can't stay on top.
01:21:50She used Julian's feelings like a weapon.
01:21:52Totally vampire-drained him dry.
01:22:24Mr. Clark!
01:22:26Mr. Clark!
01:22:43I'm sure you've all heard.
01:22:45Harper Enterprise,
01:22:46affected today,
01:22:47has become a Clark Group subsidiary.
01:22:49So,
01:22:50we're all being terminated.
01:22:52What?
01:22:54Mr. Clark,
01:22:55that'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.
01:23:03Congratulations.
01:23:04You've had 15 years to make this company clean,
01:23:06and instead,
01:23:07you've turned it into a suit.
01:23:10You know,
01:23:10I've been watching you guys
01:23:11for about six months now,
01:23:13and I've seen how you all work.
01:23:16Bribes,
01:23:18embezzlement,
01:23:20kickbacks,
01:23:22fraud.
01:23:24Everyone beat us a smile.
01:23:26So, we're going to be passing out
01:23:27some resignation terms,
01:23:30and I want you to sign them,
01:23:33hand over your badges,
01:23:34or you're going to rob him.
01:23:37This.
01:23:38This is it.
01:23:53Are you satisfied, Mal?
01:23:56Satisfied?
01:23:58Thomas went to my grandfather.
01:23:59He begged him to acquire Harper Enterprise
01:24:01so that your family could cash out.
01:24:04I saved you.
01:24:08Julian.
01:24:10If I didn't treat you the way I did,
01:24:14would any of this be different?
01:24:24Julian,
01:24:25Julian,
01:24:25why didn't you get thrown away
01:24:25and still land something better?
01:24:27I spent my whole life climbing upwards,
01:24:29and now I'm stuck at the bottom,
01:24:30hunted by cops.
01:24:32I won't accept it.
01:24:34Julian,
01:24:34what's your...
01:24:36Julian?
01:24:36Julian!
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,
01:24:45did you?
01:24:46Yo, take him to the police.
01:24:47Get the best of all your money can buy.
01:24:48I want him to ride in jail.
01:24:50Fucking coward.
01:24:51You'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're all the fucking guts to you!
01:25:03Hey, Julian.
01:25:04Julian, what was that?
01:25:06Just taking out the trash.
01:25:09Are you done here?
01:25:11No.
01:25:12Let's go.
01:25:19I was wrong!
01:25:22Julian, I was wrong!
