00:00:04Breaking news, Harper Enterprise is under a coordinated short attack.
00:00:08In the past hour alone, the conglomerate has lost over a billion dollars in Arcee's valuation.
00:00:13Help me up here, I'm drowning. I just filed it.
00:00:16Help me up here, I'm drowning. I just filed it.
00:00:23No, you have to buy it.
00:00:24I need you to buy the stock, or I told you it's all.
00:00:27You gotta do it now.
00:00:28This isn't some random dip. Whoever's shorting us came prepared. They're tearing us apart.
00:00:33We 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.
00:00:51Shit.
00:00:52We need your help. The fairy is over.
00:00:55Give me a sec.
00:01:01Hey, Mr. Griffin, how you doing?
00:01:04Good, 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.
00:01:26How is that possible?
00:01:28Did 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.
00:01:36Called in all hands.
00:01:38All department leads.
00:01:39Conference room in 10 minutes.
00:01:40Chairman's orders.
00:01:42Why would Damien call in the meeting?
00:01:44He despises you.
00:01:46Watch your back.
00:02:14Today, Damien successfully made a mistake.
00:02:17We actually 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?
00:02:33He must have stole this win from someone else.
00:02:35Remember what he did to Anthony from investments?
00:02:37Damien took credit for his deal.
00:02:39Anthony pushed back, and Damien used this pool with Serena to get him fired.
00:02:48Hello?
00:02:49Is there a problem?
00:02:51Because 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.
00:02:59Of course.
00:03:01Questions?
00:03:02I'd be happy to share my strategies to help save your livelihoods.
00:03:10Julian.
00:03:11The company just went through a crisis, and you're up here gaming?
00:03:15Kyron may be.
00:03:16Keep sharing.
00:03:17I'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, um, well, um, well, I, uh, well, well, you can't even name the basics.
00:04:11Alright, so you certainly have no idea how to stand up a cross-functional war room, the
00:04:16countermeasures for a potential proxies fight, or which SCC clauses could be used to threaten
00:04:20the attackers.
00:04:23Let's be real.
00:04:26You are nothing but a glory hound who steals credit and bullies anyone who sees the real.
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.
00:05:08Now, the hearing's not enough.
00:05:08I 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 $3 trillion.
00:05:22You've proven 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 could grow, brat.
00:05:39Our families go way better.
00:05:41Your 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.
00:05:56Go work with Serena.
00:05:58And date her properly, hmm?
00:06:02You refuse.
00:06:04Okay.
00:06:05Nurse, doctor, I'm checking out.
00:06:08Well, the ransom won't listen.
00:06:09What's the point?
00:06:10Okay.
00:06:10Let the heart attack take me now.
00:06:11Okay, all right.
00:06:12I'll go.
00:06:15I 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.
00:06:24The Harper's never in trouble.
00:06:25We do not abandon our own youths, that brilliant head of youths, and help them, please, for 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 to 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 the city's business world.
00:07:00And 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.
00:07:16So, 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 going to call security, and you're going to drag your ass out.
00:07:29Suit yourself.
00:07:32Julian, 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.
00:07:44Serena, is that really the best play you want to make here?
00:07:46I will not repeat it, and 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 is because
00:08:04of your dusty fucking engagement to Serena, and you have the audacity to act all high
00:08:08and 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 old Beyoncé 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 on it?
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 course sheet.
00:08:40Julian, that is enough.
00:08:42Disrupting proceedings, assault, destruction 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, you broke my watch.
00:08:55The 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 going to rot in jail.
00:09:06Fine.
00:09:07Okay.
00:09:09Is it a hundred thousand dollars?
00:09:10What?
00:09:11One 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?
00:09:21A CEO's gift does carry sentimental value.
00:09:23He does have a point card.
00:09:25You break it, you buy it.
00:09:27That's the rule.
00:09:28Though on your salary, it might take a few lifetimes.
00:09:35Well, you're going to 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 fiancé?
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?
00:10:28A 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.
00:10:40Whoa.
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!
00:11:04Mr. Brooks.
00:11:07That's David Brooks.
00:11:08Prisoner of Harvey View Bank.
00:11:10What's a Wall Street Titan doing on a conference room?
00:11:12Do you think he has to do it to 100 million long?
00:11:14It 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.
00:11:43What?
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?
00:11:54Delivered by Mr. Brooks?
00:11:55I mean...
00:11:56Wait, who are you?
00:12:00Much appreciated.
00:12:01You can just leave it on the table.
00:12:09Mr. Brooks.
00:12:10Mr. Brooks.
00:12:11Sir.
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 me sometime.
00:12:20Mr. Clark.
00:12:22Is there anything else you require?
00:12:24My resources are available at your disposal.
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.
00:12:48Yes, 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.
00:12:57The chairman will have his head.
00:12:59This is all your fault, all right?
00:13:01You gotta fix this.
00:13:02You call him back here and get that loan reinstated, or I swear I'm gonna slip...
00:13:05You're the one that pissed off Mr. Brooks, not me.
00:13:08As for us...
00:13:12One million.
00:13:13In full.
00:13:14Which makes this watch...
00:13:19It's mine.
00:13:21You arrogant son of a bitch!
00:13:27I bet this is all the money that you have, isn't it?
00:13:29I bet you ought to sell your house to scrape this together, you fucking loser.
00:13:36But it's all mine now.
00:13:38Yeah, sure.
00:13:39The 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.
00:13:46I don't know.
00:13:47Maybe about...
00:13:48A hundred million?
00:13:50A hundred million dollars!
00:13:54For a laptop?
00:13:56Have you lost your mind?
00:13:59A hundred million.
00:14:00For a laptop.
00:14:02Julian.
00:14:03The 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?
00:14:15Huh?
00:14:16Ask a kisser.
00:14:17Enough!
00:14:18Julian.
00:14:20You know, I know you think you're right,
00:14:22what, a 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!
00:14:49Mr. Sullivan!
00:14:51That's Billy Sullivan.
00:14:52SVP for Stellar.
00:14:53Here?
00:14:54You think he's about the $300 million partner you chipped in?
00:14:56$300 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.
00:15:05Uh, what an unexpected honor.
00:15:07I'm Sabrina Harper, CEO.
00:15:09Do, what do we owe the...
00:15:10Mr. Clark,
00:15:11our security have detected an urgent impact alert from your device,
00:15:15and the signal originated here.
00:15:17Be with concern for your safety and kill 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.
00:15:28It just took a fall.
00:15:31God, this damage is significant.
00:15:34With the custom components, preliminary repair estimate,
00:15:38this could be $30 million.
00:15:42$30 million?
00:15:43No, no, no, no.
00:15:44To fix a fucking laptop?
00:15:46That's impossible!
00:15:47There's no way!
00:15:48Are 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
00:15:54and proprietary components.
00:15:56You better pray that those data partitions are intact
00:15:58or that compensation will ruin you.
00:16:00I've 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 data on his laptop registered with monetary values
00:16:19to 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.
00:16:30See 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.
00:16:50In fact, can we stay on topic about my compensation?
00:16:52There's no way that there's a fucking laptop that costs $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.
00:17:09Miss Harper, this is the employee you hire.
00:17:13He's a fool.
00:17:14And it speaks volumes about your company's judgment.
00:17:17Oh, by the way, our partnership deal?
00:17:19Consider it terminated.
00:17:21What?
00:17:22Um, 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 have 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.
00:18:28I'll do.
00:18:30Mr. Sullivan, our partners...
00:18:31Miss Harper.
00:18:32Get 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.
00:18:46You 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.
00:18:57We don't need someone like you worrying about it.
00:18:59He's right.
00:19:01Julian, I give you my word.
00:19:03The full amount will be paid within three days.
00:19:05But 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?
00:19:27One of us just torpedoed a hundred million dollar loan and a three hundred million dollar deal.
00:19:31Remind me.
00:19:32Which one of us should actually get the fuck out?
00:19:35Serena, I think it is actually time to call your grandfather.
00:19:37He 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.
00:19:59Remind me.
00:19:59Which one of us is the real boy toy?
00:20:04You...
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?
00:20:36Chairman Harper brought you in?
00:20:38Julian, have you lost your fucking mind?
00:20:40Who do you think you are?
00:20:42You 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 in the fuck, Addy.
00:21:05What the hell is going on in here?
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 going on today.
00:21:26I know that you've been wronged by this guy.
00:21:31Please accept my apology for everything.
00:21:35Chairman 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.
00:21:46How could you possibly?
00:21:47Shut up!
00:21:54I'm sorry.
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.
00:22:02I wish we hit him more.
00:22:04Serena, 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're going to announce everything once the engagement was formally set.
00:22:16But who knew?
00:22:18Serena, 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.
00:22:26Julian, please, understand.
00:22:29All of this is on us.
00:22:31Everything that's happened here today is the fault of the Harperfin.
00:22:36Give me a chance to make it right.
00:22:42Apologize 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!
00:23:02Serena, enough!
00:23:03Julian, she's just being foolish.
00:23:05Let me apologize.
00:23:06Say that.
00:23:08Serena can't manage an apology herself.
00:23:11Then 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.
00:23:23Julian, please, don't.
00:23:24Without you, this place doesn't survive.
00:23:27Look!
00:23:29Oh!
00:23:30What?
00:23:33What?
00:23:36Oh, I guess you could have just pulled the orders.
00:23:38What do you mean, hospital takeover?
00:23:39All of my 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.
00:23:56A 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.
00:24:10Why did Harper Enterprise's 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!
00:24:33It's Harper!
00:24:33This isn't a race!
00:24:35Our major partners are terminating their contracts!
00:24:37And our own liquidity can't cover the gas!
00:24:40If this continues, 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!
00:25:01No!
00:25:05Serena, apologize.
00:25:08Serena.
00:25:19Serena, do not apologize.
00:25:21Harper Enterprises is 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, no!
00:25:33Oh!
00:25:35No, you're fucking fucked!
00:25:37You apologize to Julian right now!
00:25:38Get on your knees!
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!
00:25:51Stay 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!
00:26:07And 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 wash!
00:26:25Don't you think that's bullying?
00:26:27Oh, 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.
00:26:42Yeah, 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 and 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...
00:27:14I 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,
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 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?
00:27:58I 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.
00:28:16Because 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.
00:28:43Eyes up, Serena.
00:28:44In the past six months,
00:28:45I'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,
00:28:51I made you Wall Street's business queen.
00:28:53That's Iron Gate,
00:28:54North Bridge,
00:28:55and even Silver Line.
00:28:57Those are all the top 50 global giants.
00:28:58They all been begging us behind the scenes?
00:29:01No wonder every project went so smoothly.
00:29:03Julian's the one with this kind of network.
00:29:05Damien's got some nerve
00:29:06stealing 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
00:29:16because of me
00:29:17and my hard work
00:29:18and my connections.
00:29:19You arrogant fool.
00:29:22Did you think you could step in here
00:29:24and 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,
00:29:39our engagement is terminated.
00:29:41Julian,
00:29:42all of this has been our fault.
00:29:44But the engagement...
00:29:45Let him go.
00:29:46I don't need a fiance
00:29:47who uses his family background
00:29:49to wreck people.
00:29:52Without my connections
00:29:54and my network,
00:29:55Harper Enterprise's stock
00:29:56is going to keep falling.
00:29:57It's going to go right back
00:29:59to where it was six months ago.
00:30:01What?
00:30:02What?
00:30:04Prepare yourselves.
00:30:06Julian.
00:30:07Julian.
00:30:08Julian.
00:30:08Julian.
00:30:11Serena.
00:30:13You silly, foolish, foolish girl.
00:30:16Grandpa,
00:30:17I have never been clearer.
00:30:19With or without him,
00:30:20I will lead Harper Enterprise
00:30:21back to the top.
00:30:22Serena's right.
00:30:24Mr. Harper,
00:30:24Chairman Harper,
00:30:25I'm going to stand by Serena's side
00:30:27and I'm going to give her
00:30:27everything that I've got.
00:30:29Crap.
00:30:30I'm going to beat the crap
00:30:31out 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
00:30:40with Damien,
00:30:40but I believe
00:30:42he will prove himself to you
00:30:43and so will I.
00:30:46I will show everyone here
00:30:48that what Harper achieved
00:30:49over the past six months
00:30:50was my work.
00:30:51It has nothing
00:30:52to do with Julian.
00:30:55This meeting is over.
00:30:57Serena, wait up!
00:30:59Dude!
00:31:00God!
00:31:01Tell me what to do
00:31:02with this reckless granddaughter.
00:31:08Serena!
00:31:08Serena!
00:31:09Don't even worry about that.
00:31:11I know our Enterprise
00:31:12took a huge hit today,
00:31:13but as long as we lock down
00:31:14Amber Group's
00:31:14Crescent Lake project,
00:31:16change the game,
00:31:16and everyone will still think
00:31:18that we're in control.
00:31:19Easy.
00:31:20The $3 billion
00:31:21Crescent Lake project.
00:31:24If we can win that contract,
00:31:26we can wipe all the problems
00:31:27we've been facing.
00:31:29Damien,
00:31:30you've secured
00:31:30several of Amber Group's
00:31:32projects before,
00:31:33and I'm going to put this one
00:31:34in your hands too.
00:31:35It's not going to be a problem,
00:31:36right?
00:31:37No, no, absolutely.
00:31:37You can count on me.
00:31:39Amber Group's
00:31:40deputy VP of projects.
00:31:41I mean,
00:31:41he trusts me clearly.
00:31:44He has his business eyes.
00:31:52Get the Crescent Lake contract ready.
00:31:54Same as always.
00:31:56Once the Harper team arrives,
00:31:57we hand it straight to them.
00:31:59Miss Lawson,
00:31:59we just got an update.
00:32:01Julian Clark has been kicked
00:32:02out of Harper Enterprise.
00:32:03The engagement is off.
00:32:04Serena fired him
00:32:05and ended it.
00:32:08Are you sure?
00:32:10Absolutely.
00:32:11Word is she listened
00:32:13to her assistant Damien
00:32:13who really stirred the pot
00:32:14and then Serena
00:32:15personally pushed Julian out.
00:32:17Serena really thinks
00:32:18she got where she is
00:32:19because of Damien?
00:32:20That for your little lap dog?
00:32:22Then,
00:32:23do we still hand
00:32:24the Crescent Lake project
00:32:25over to Harper Enterprise?
00:32:27Without Julian,
00:32:28Harper Enterprise
00:32:29really thinks
00:32:29it's worthy of Crescent Lake?
00:32:31Not a chance.
00:32:33Open it to public bidding.
00:32:34Yes, ma'am.
00:32:43Now that is
00:32:44an amazing shot,
00:32:45Mr. Brooks.
00:32:45Damien,
00:32:47Crescent Lake's
00:32:47public bid
00:32:48is coming up soon.
00:32:49How's Harper Enterprise
00:32:51looking?
00:33:05Damien?
00:33:06What does this mean, huh?
00:33:08Mr. Brooks,
00:33:09why don't you
00:33:09do yourself a favor
00:33:09and take a closer look?
00:33:13That's one million
00:33:14in clean crypto.
00:33:16Untraceable.
00:33:17Harper Enterprise
00:33:18is totally prepared
00:33:19to take on Crescent Lake.
00:33:22We just need you
00:33:23to give us
00:33:24a little extra attention.
00:33:26Oh my, Damien.
00:33:27You're too kind.
00:33:29Sure,
00:33:30it's a public bidding
00:33:31on paper,
00:33:32but as long as I'm here,
00:33:34you've got nothing
00:33:35to worry about.
00:33:37Sit tight.
00:33:39Contract's yours.
00:33:42Miss Larson
00:33:43usually hands
00:33:43Harper Enterprises
00:33:44whatever they want anyway.
00:33:46Well,
00:33:48thank you very much,
00:33:49Mr. Brooks.
00:34:16Well, uh,
00:34:19Prince Julian,
00:34:22All right, Serena kicked you out. Six months of hard work, down the drain. What does that feel?
00:34:30Oh, I see. So you brought me to your party just to mock me a little bit. Is that right?
00:34:35Of course.
00:34:37Not.
00:34:40I'm here to steal you.
00:34:41You see, since 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 make a stranger when there's someone who actually knows you?
00:35:07You see? Childhood friends, same circles, 15 years of school. We match, you know? We fit.
00:35:22Hang on. Nora, are you saying this because you're drunk, or do you...
00:35:26Shh.
00:35:34I'm not drunk, okay? You don't have to answer me tonight, just think about it.
00:35:40Hmm?
00:35:41Come on.
00:35:45Ugh.
00:35:47Oh, my God.
00:36:11I told you I'm not drunk.
00:36:13All right, this one's going to come off.
00:36:16Oh, shit.
00:36:17I'm drunk.
00:36:19All right.
00:36:21Your swimsuit come off.
00:36:22Oh, shit.
00:36:23I'm drunk.
00:36:39Miss Lawson, Amber Group's distinguished CEO, allow 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.
00:37:03Aren't you worried about tomorrow's headlines?
00:37:05Amber Group's CEO get caught in a scandal at a pool party?
00:37:09I'm not going to boost my company's visibility, but I'm not letting the pictures of my breasts
00:37:14go through.
00:37:15Oh, okay.
00:37:17Okay.
00:37:20But if you stay through to me like this for the rest of the night, I think my heart's going
00:37:28going to escape on its chest.
00:37:41And suffer.
00:37:43Okay?
00:37:44If you push me, I will cross you into an 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.
00:38:19No, this is a private party for Amber Group's CEO.
00:38:22You know what I lost?
00:38:24Not exactly the kind of place where anybody could just wander into.
00:38:27Oh, wait.
00:38:30Oh, well, 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 better than Serena.
00:38:45How does a loser like Julian always get women?
00:38:47I guess your taste hasn't improved.
00:38:49Whatever bargain bin date you dragged here, she's nothing compared to Serena.
00:38:56Pouring herself out like this?
00:38:59It's me all take her hair.
00:39:00Is that so?
00:39:02Now I hear your company's looking to bid on Amber Group's Christmas project.
00:39:09What, you're bidding too?
00:39:11Yeah, I know you got connection and that's great, you know.
00:39:13But you're still a useless fucking piece of trash.
00:39:16Me, I got real talent, alright?
00:39:17And I'm gonna win Crescent Lake for Serena.
00:39:20You, you're just gonna fucking lose like you lose everything else.
00:39:24Good luck.
00:39:36See that?
00:39:38That is a shameless whore.
00:39:40That woman seems familiar.
00:39:43Samantha, you don't even know anyone that cheap.
00:39:46Alright, come on. Let's enjoy the rest of the party.
00:39:48Let's go socialize and maybe we'll run into the host of the party lost in herself.
00:39:53And if we do, I'll make sure we need to go to 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?
00:40:36Yeah.
00:40:36You 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.
00:40:51Shall 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.
00:41:39And 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.
00:42:03It'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?
00:42:14He recognizes Damien's talent.
00:42:16Of course.
00:42:21I need to take this.
00:42:29Hi, Julian.
00:42:32What century are you living in?
00:42:34Hmm?
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?
00:42:52Yeah.
00:42:52You 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.
00:43:02But hey, you're a very lovely, beautiful escort.
00:43:05Why don't you do us all a favor?
00:43:07Get up on that stage and give us a nice little poll show.
00:43:10Hey.
00:43:10Hey, I'm going to tell you.
00:43:12You want to know why I keep winning Amber Group deals?
00:43:16Because every time I give Mason Brooks a nice little fortune.
00:43:21Capital technology.
00:43:24It's useless.
00:43:25Fucking trash.
00:43:28Mason Brooks, you've got a lot in there.
00:43:31He's finished.
00:43:33Mr. Brooks is finished.
00:43:35Who 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.
00:43:48Anti-anti-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 can 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.
00:44:26Says 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...
00:44:36Lost?
00:44:37She's even...
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?
00:44:44This...
00:44:45This...
00:44:46This can't be...
00:44:50Go ahead.
00:44:50Laugh.
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?
00:44:57She's just some golden whore.
00:44:58I mean, even if she...
00:44:59She rats you out.
00:45:00Who'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.
00:45:12Idiot.
00:45:12Mr. Brooks, what are you doing?
00:45:15This Lawson, this...
00:45:16This 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.
00:45:27Ms. 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!
00:45:38Hello, I am Serena Harper.
00:45:40Thank you so much for awarding the Crescent Lake Project to Harper Enterprise.
00:45:44We 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?!
00:45:54Ms. 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!
00:46:03Ms. Lawson?
00:46:06Ms. Lawson?
00:46:08She's Nora Lawson?
00:46:12The Crescent Lake Project?
00:46:14Harper Enterprise is out.
00:46:16You can leave now.
00:46:20Ms. 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.
00:46:38Please, 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.
00:46:50If not, why would Mason Brooks have handed him so many contracts before?
00:46:55You're about to find out.
00:47:02Damien?
00:47:04What does she mean?
00:47:06Oh, shit.
00:47:08I can't let her find out I secured every project.
00:47:10Right.
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.
00:47:20Let's go.
00:47:20If we don't win Crescent Lake, Harper Enterprise is finished.
00:47:26Even if Ms. Lawson is trying to punish us, we still have to earn her forgiveness.
00:47:30Serena, please!
00:47:30Okay, I'm sorry.
00:47:32Here we go now.
00:47:34Alright, I'll get you bigger projects, the biggest ones, but we need to go now.
00:47:37Come on!
00:47:38What is wrong with you today?
00:47:40Are you hiding something from me?
00:47:42I...
00:47:54You want to understand the rules up top there, sweetheart?
00:47:57Technology capital.
00:48:00Useless fucking trash!
00:48:02What?
00:48:03Shit! She actually recorded it?
00:48:05And escort.
00:48:07So why don't you do us all a nice little favor, get up on that stage, give us a nice
00:48:10little
00:48:10whole 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?
00:48:22All of the best AMBER projects being sent to Harper Enterprises over the past six months.
00:48:27And now we know they were bought.
00:48:32That's not true. All of that's a lie.
00:48:34It's just a lie.
00:48:35Don't do that.
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?
00:48:46Your ability?
00:48:47Yes, you're mean, please just...
00:48:49Mr. Brooks is very silly.
00:48:51What a fucking ridiculous thing to say.
00:48:53Who are you to say anything?
00:48:54What do you think, your AMBER group CEO?
00:48:56Amber.
00:48:59Turn it off, please.
00:49:00It's okay.
00:49:01Okay, Ms. Lawson, please just turn it off.
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?
00:49:15He 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...
00:49:33Can 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.
00:49:47Harper 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.
00:50:00No, no.
00:50:01You 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?
00:50:12We'll tell them.
00:50:18We'll tell them.
00:50:20Pathetic.
00:50:25Serena.
00:50:28Please, you gotta let me explain.
00:50:31Ms. Lawson, wait.
00:50:33Serena!
00:50:42I just avenged you in front of a lot of people.
00:50:45Asking for 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.
00:50:57Ms. 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?
00:51:22Ms. Lawson, Damien 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.
00:51:35No delays.
00:51:36If you don't pull this contract, I guarantee he will make sure you see his value.
00:51:45Managed flawlessly.
00:51:46He's not the only empty suit here.
00:51:49Year or two.
00:51:51Ms. 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?
00:52:05You really think I froze our cooperation because Damien, right 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.
00:52:22Julian Clark.
00:52:23Damien has nothing to do with that.
00:52:26He 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 ribbing 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. I don't believe it.
00:53:18You don't believe me?
00:53:19Then watch.
00:53:21Watch 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 him.
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 disgusts 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.
00:54:14Julian, you have to believe me. Please, you have to understand.
00:54:16Because of you, Crescent Lake is gone.
00:54:20Every Amber project is gone.
00:54:23Harper Enterprise is on the edge of collapse and you're asking me to trust you? How? Tell 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. I mean, they love me. They absolutely love and adore
00:54:40me.
00:54:41I promise. You know what, matter of fact, I'm gonna call and I'm gonna get you some new projects right
00:54:45now.
00:54:49Hello, Mr. Foster, it's Damien here. I hear the Grandview Plaza is taking bids and Harper Enterprise, you know, we
00:54:56would absolutely love.
00:54:57Harper Enterprise? Who the hell is that? Do you think you're even in the same league as Grandview Plaza?
00:55:05Mr. Foster, what do you mean? Last time we spoke, you said that you believed in the Harper Enterprise and
00:55:12that you would love to work together.
00:55:14Listen up. That's because Julian Clark was in your damn enterprise. I was giving him respect.
00:55:20You don't flatter yourself, bunch of blind dumbasses. Call me again and I'll block your fucking number.
00:55:27So what really was Julian? No, no, that's not possible. I don't believe that. I don't.
00:55:33Hello, Mr. Parker, it's Damien. I was hoping to talk about future collaborations.
00:55:38Damien? You've got the fucking nerve to call me? I gave Harper Enterprise projects because of Mr. Clark.
00:55:45And then you turned around and claimed you closed the deal? Who gave you the audacity? Shameless trash?
00:55:55Miss Parker. Miss Parker. Miss Parker. No. No. God damn it.
00:55:59No, no. I don't believe this. I don't believe this.
00:56:02Fucking Julian this whole fucking time. God damn it.
00:56:06Sorry. Sorry. Um, hello. Mr. Turner. It's Damien.
00:56:12Damien? Who do you think you are, huh? Calling me directly? Learned some manners.
00:56:18Julian was polite enough to tolerate you playing sideman with his fiancee. I'm not, you bastard tooy.
00:56:26Mr. Turner? Mr. Turner, please.
00:56:31What the fuck is happening?
00:56:39Miss Harper? This is bad. Our partners are flooding us with messages. They're suspending contracts, pulling out a deal.
00:56:46Wait, what is happening?
00:56:48They said before they only worked with Harper Enterprise because Julian Clark backed us. Now that he's gone, they don't
00:56:54trust us with their project.
00:56:56Julian.
00:56:58It's Julian again.
00:57:02No, it's, it's true. They only gave us deals because of Julian. Julian!
00:57:10Julian! No, no, no, no. Swingo, please, okay?
00:57:12They're just saying that because Julian has been paying them off. Think about it, okay?
00:57:16You know what? Just give you some time and I'll get you some new projects. I'll get you some new
00:57:20projects, I swear.
00:57:21Get away from me! You liar, you fraud, Damien! All those CEOs, they only had you pick up contracts from
00:57:31them. And you told me you negotiated the deals.
00:57:35I swear, I, I, I, I, I didn't know that, that they, that they would.
00:57:39Get out of my sight.
00:57:42What?
00:57:42Shhh...
00:57:42Yeah!
00:57:56DAAAGH!
00:58:01Damn it, no! I was this close to locking Serena down. Stepping in to the upper circle. I'm not letting
00:58:06it end like this.
00:58:12Serena, you really thought you were smart
00:58:15But you're really just
00:58:17Pathetic
00:58:19Trash
00:58:20Without Julian
00:58:22You're nothing
00:58:33Dad warned you
00:58:35Grandpa warned you
00:58:37And you still wouldn't listen
00:58:42You ignored everything Julian did
00:58:45And worshipped a con artist like Damien
00:58:51Stupid
00:58:52And now look at you
00:59:03Project
00:59:04Gone
00:59:06Company collapsing
00:59:10Idiot
00:59:11You arrogant
00:59:12Stupid
00:59:14Idiot
00:59:16So stupid
00:59:23Julian
00:59:24I'm sorry
00:59:32I'm sorry
00:59:33I'm sorry
00:59:34Listen
00:59:34I know I messed up
00:59:46I know I know I was wrong
00:59:50Always damn
00:59:52Julian
00:59:56Come back
00:59:58Please come back
01:00:04Damn back
01:00:10You don't have to be scared
01:00:12Harper Enterprise's business queen
01:00:14So much better than those cheap girls
01:00:16Once I lock her down
01:00:18Harper Enterprise is mine
01:00:21Damien

01:00:24You sick bastard
01:00:29I really mean it
01:00:31I love you

01:00:47I'm begging you
01:00:48Don't
01:00:48Say yes
01:00:58I tried being nice to you
01:01:00I fucking tried
01:01:01But you keep fighting me back
01:01:04Keep screaming
01:01:05Keep fucking screaming
01:01:07Right

01:01:13No
01:01:14No
01:01:14No
01:01:14No
01:01:14No
01:01:16Julian
01:01:17Julian
01:01:18Help
01:01:21Get him out of here
01:01:23Stop
01:01:23Let me go
01:01:25Julian
01:01:25You're always supposed to be the fucking place
01:01:27This isn't over
01:01:33Julian
01:01:33Wait
01:01:34Thank god
01:01:35You came
01:01:35And you had like
01:01:36We are not that close
01:01:40I was just passing through
01:01:41I heard some screaming
01:01:42So 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
01:01:56I just
01:01:58Please come back
01:01:59Julian
01:02:01Our reservation is in ten minutes
01:02:03Let's go
01:02:12Serena
01:02:12I told you
01:02:14I told you
01:02:16Over and over and over again
01:02:19That Damien was not a good man
01:02:22And you refused to listen
01:02:26And Julian
01:02:27If Julian doesn't come along
01:02:28Just at the right time
01:02:30Oh my god
01:02:32Oh 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
01:02:38One day
01:02:40You will live to regret it
01:02:41Dad, grandpa, please
01:02:42Stop
01:02:43I know I was wrong
01:02:45Okay
01:02:46I'll
01:02:48I'll apologize
01:02:49To Julian
01:02:50And
01:02:52I will follow through with the engagement
01:02:55The problem with that is that
01:02:56You 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
01:03:15Put out a city-wide bolo
01:03:16On that
01:03:18Bastard Damien
01:03:20He put his hands on my granddaughter
01:03:23We're not letting that go
01:03:24No
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
01:04:14Amber 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, 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
01:04:41And any man would've, 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
01:04:58Business 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
01:05:10European alliance
01:05:11Some old money
01:05:14Perfect match they can show off at Calas
01:05:16Wait, what are you talking about?
01:05:18Are you serious?
01:05:18Yes, Julian
01:05:20My uncle is thirsty for my family's fortune
01:05:23And he'll do whatever it takes to get rid of me permanently
01:05:26But I don't want a stranger
01:05:27I want you
01:05:28I love you
01:05:31Julian
01:05:33Let's make it official
01:05:35Let's get married
01:05:39You know, if
01:05:41You'll marry me
01:05:42My 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
01:06:06I knew you wouldn't abandon me
01:06:08But
01:06:09Can you
01:06:11Help me out?
01:06:12My hands are getting
01:06:13So impatient
01:06:20It's like you said
01:06:22If I accept the gift
01:06:25Then our engagement becomes official
01:06:32Then be gentle
01:06:33Then be gentle
01:06:41Julian, you
01:06:43Didn'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
01:06:53Kinda
01:06:54Kinda
01:06:55You kinda remember that for the rest of your life
01:06:56You know that-
01:06:57Details!
01:06:58Those are just
01:07:00Tiny 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
01:07:16I never should have trusted Damien
01:07:17I misjudged everything
01:07:19Please
01:07:20Just give me one more chance
01:07:21And
01:07:22I'll honor the engagement
01:07:24And if you take me back
01:07:25Just tell me what you want
01:07:26I'll do anything
01:07:27I'm sorry
01:07:28I'm Nora's boyfriend now
01:07:33Boyfriend?
01:07:39Serena
01:07:40Serena, you once said you hate arranged marriages
01:07:43Well, 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
01:07:52So tell me, what exactly are you proud of?
01:07:55Hmm?
01:07:57Men like him?
01:07:59If you treat him like trash
01:08:01Someone else will treat him like treasure
01:08:04Listen carefully
01:08:05We are together now
01:08:06So
01:08:07Better keep your distance
01:08:08If you don't
01:08:11I won't be so nice about it
01:08:14Come on
01:08:15We're trying on our wedding outfits tonight
01:08:18Let'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?
01:08:39Julian?
01:08:41He's with Nora
01:08:46Nora
01:08:47Nora Lawson
01:08:49CEO of Amber Group
01:08:51Of course
01:08:52You know Serena
01:08:53It's an elite
01:08:54Like Julian
01:08:56The second
01:08:57You let go
01:08:58Somebody 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
01:09:13Finance sent the latest reports
01:09:15Hopper Enterprise's cash flow has collapsed
01:09:18If we don't act immediately
01:09:20We 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 was 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
01:09:42I didn't realize that Julian was running everything
01:09:47And the moment he's gone
01:09:48I can't do anything
01:09:51Dad
01:09:53Grandpa
01:09:53I'm so sorry
01:09:55I ruined Harpers Enterprise
01:09:58I ruined everything
01:10:00Dad
01:10:01You're the one who arranged the engagement
01:10:03With Julian's grandfather, right?
01:10:05So maybe you should go talk to him
01:10:08And 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
01:10:17Clark family isn't what it used to be
01:10:21Yes, they honored our engagement
01:10:25And that was a mercy, that was a blessing
01:10:28But you threw it away
01:10:34Still, for your sake and for your future
01:10:37And for our future
01:10:40We'll fight
01:10:42Oh my God
01:10:48Serena, when 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
01:11:03For the Harper family, I'll do whatever it takes
01:11:22Yes
01:11:24You 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?
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
01:11:46And everyone is so happy that they're finally getting married
01:11:50Oh, oh, I see
01:11:52You didn't 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
01:12:07If there's an engagement party
01:12:08That means Julian's grandfather
01:12:10Has already approved of an engagement
01:12:14And that means
01:12:15We're done
01:12:17There's no more chances left
01:12:19We're leaving
01:12:21Is this my punishment?
01:12:25Alright, everyone
01:12:26Big smiles
01:12:42Big smiles
01:12:45Are you okay?
01:12:46Hey
01:12:47What is it?
01:12:53Oh, it's nothing
01:12:55Come on, dinner's almost ready
01:12:57Shh
01:13:10Dad! The Harpers!
01:13:13My grandson grew up with everything
01:13:18For him
01:13:19For him
01:13:20For six months at Harper Enterprise
01:13:23It was a total humiliation
01:13:26We've shown that Harper had more mercy than he ever deserved
01:13:32Understood, Dad
01:13:32Understood, Dad
01:13:41Okay, enough, Serena
01:13:42Stop!
01:13:43You can't drink this away
01:13:45Harper Enterprise is hanging on by a thread
01:13:47If you don't get up, it's over
01:13:51Just...
01:13:52Leave me the fuck alone
01:13:53Okay? Just let me drink
01:13:55I'm the fucking idiot who ruined everything
01:13:57I wrecked Harper Enterprise
01:13:59No, you...
01:14:02Alright, I've gotta take this
01:14:04Don't move
01:14:05I'll be right back and then
01:14:07I am taking you home
01:14:18Mora
01:14:21Mora
01:14:21Okay, Mora
01:14:21Be 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
01:14:40You think I'm not gonna lock it down now?
01:14:42Lock it down from what?
01:14:44From Harper Enterprise, of course
01:14:45They're collapsing and treating Julian like a lifeboat
01:14:50I have to move fast
01:14:52If...
01:14:53They start begging
01:14:55What if Julian hesitates?
01:14:58But 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?
01:15:16Because Serena
01:15:19Is his type
01:15:20Wait, 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 time
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 and take six months of humiliation if 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
01:16:01So that's what it was
01:16:02Julian stayed at Harper Enterprise for six months
01:16:05Because I'm his type
01:16:06He likes me!
01:16:08That means...
01:16:09I 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?
01:16:29Ladies and gentlemen
01:16:30Let's welcome the beautiful bride
01:16:45Wow, they look perfect together
01:16:48They're childhood sweethearts, the whole fantasy
01:16:51Oh my god, brilliant!
01:16:54And now for the exchange of rings
01:17:09Wait!
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?
01:17:30Without Julian, Harper Enterprise is basically bankrupt
01:17:33Pathetic
01:17:34Wait!
01:17:36Serena, what are you doing here?
01:17:41Julian...
01:17:42I know you like me
01:17:44You wouldn't have stayed at Harper Enterprise for six months
01:17:46Humiliated if you didn't
01:17:53I know
01:17:53I was wrong, totally wrong, okay?
01:17:56Just please
01:17:58Give 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
01:18:13No, please, I'll do anything
01:18:15Just...
01:18:16No
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
01:18:27I'll chase you 37 times, 370 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...
01:18:41So why won't you give me another chance?
01:18:42Why?
01:18:48Simple question
01:18:49Do you love me?
01:18:53I...
01:18:54Exactly, you don't
01:18:56You didn't realize you made a mistake
01:18:58You realized that Harper Enterprise is dying
01:19:01See, what you want
01:19:02Is 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?
01:19:10No, that...
01:19:11That's not true
01:19:13Just please
01:19:15Listen, please, listen
01:19:16Enough, Serena
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
01:19:25If Harper Enterprise had not collapsed
01:19:26If your value kept climbing
01:19:29Would you still be here standing in front of me today?
01:19:33I...
01:19:34No, no, 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 crown
01:19:41You'd be mocking me, calling me pathetic
01:19:44You'd say that firing me was the best decision you ever made
01:19:46Plus, you'd still be with that asshole Damien
01:19:50No...
01:19:50No, Serena
01:19:52That's not me
01:19:53Just 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
01:20:09You will kick me away again without a moment's hesitation
01:20:13No...
01:20:15No, Julian
01:20:17That is not true the night
01:20:18That you saved me
01:20:20From Damien
01:20:21I...
01:20:23I...
01:20:24I felt something for you
01:20:25I...
01:20:25I did...
01:20:26Stop!
01:20:26Do not perform at my wedding
01:20:29You don't regret hurting me
01:20:31You 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
01:20:42Once I realized what you really are
01:20:45Before...
01:20:45All I felt was disgust
01:20:49But Nora...
01:20:52She has cared for me
01:20:53Since we were kids
01:20:57When 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
01:21:09She still supported me
01:21:10She still took hits from me
01:21:15So...
01:21:16Let me ask you
01:21:18Why would I give up all of that
01:21:19For 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
01:21:34I'm begging you, just please let me explain
01:21:38Please...
01:21:38Please, please stop, let me go
01:21:40Julian, please don't do it
01:21:43Crashing a wedding like that?
01:21:44I thought she actually loved him
01:21:46Turns out, she just realized without Julian
01:21:48She can't stay on top
01:21:50She used Julian's feelings like a weapon
01:21:53Totally vampire drained and dry
01:22:03The film and joker
01:22:03The film and the wiver
01:22:05Is only a few weeks ago
01:22:06And the film in the moment
01:22:06Time to walk away
01:22:07And the film and the film making
01:22:10That is the film that really is
01:22:12And the film really is
01:22:12It is supposed to be
01:22:16The film and the film
01:22:23So we have to deal with
01:22:24Mr. Clark!
01:22:43I'm sure you've all heard. Harper Enterprise, affected today, has become a Clark Group subsidiary.
01:22:49So, we're all being terminated.
01:22:52Are you working?
01:22:54Mr. Clark, that's too much.
01:22:57I've given this company 15 years. You 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.
01:23:17Bribes, embezzlement, kickbacks, fraud.
01:23:24Everyone beat us a mile.
01:23:26So, we're going to be passing out some resignation terms.
01:23:30And once you sign them, hand over your badges, or you're going to rob you.
01:23:35This, this is it.
01:23:53Are you satisfied now?
01:23:56Satisfied?
01:23:58Thomas went to my grandfather.
01:24:00He begged him to acquire Harper Enterprise so that your family could cash out.
01:24:04I saved you.
01:24:08Julian.
01:24:11If I didn't treat you the way I did, would any of this be different?
01:24:24Julian, why did 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?
01:24:36Julian, let's go!
01:24:40Let me go! Fuck you, let me go!
01:24:42I already spared you.
01:24:44You didn't learn at all, did you?
01:24:46Take him to the police.
01:24:47Get the best of all your money can buy.
01:24:49I want him to rot 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, let the guards go!
01:24:57You don't have the fucking guts to you!
01:25:03Hey, Julian.
01:25:04What was that?
01:25:06Just staking out the trash.
01:25:09Are you done here?
01:25:11No.
01:25:12Let's go.
01:25:19I was wrong!
01:25:21Julian, I was wrong!
01:25:23Oh my god!
