00:00:14Doctor, is my mom gonna be okay?
00:00:17I'm sorry, Grace. She has a brain hemorrhage.
00:00:20With immediate surgery, there is a chance, but it'll cost $500,000.
00:00:31I don't have that kind of money, but mom needs me.
00:00:34I'll find a way to get the money. Please, just save my mom.
00:00:38I can do that.
00:00:41Grace Miller!
00:00:42Oh, Rose. Well, thank God you two are here.
00:00:45Mom was working at the orphanage when she fainted, and it's gonna cost 500 grand.
00:00:50500 grand?!
00:00:52And where are we supposed to get that?
00:00:56Call off the surgery, doc. There's no way we're paying for that.
00:00:59Rose, what are you saying? She's our mom. She adopted us. You can't just...
00:01:04And forced us to grow up dirt poor. She's a lowlife worker. She doesn't deserve to be a mom.
00:01:08If it wasn't for her, we could have been adopted by someone rich!
00:01:12You guys hear yourself. She took us in when we had nothing.
00:01:16She gave us a home. She made sure that we were never hungry.
00:01:19And you're just mad at her because she's not rich?
00:01:22Speaking of money, today's mom's paid it.
00:01:27This is mom's. Don't you dare touch it!
00:01:31No! No! No! No! No! No!
00:01:48No! No, Mom worked hard for that.
00:01:51Should be enough for a new iPhone, though.
00:01:52Mom needs that money for her surgery. You can't just take it!
00:01:55Sure we can. That old hag's about to die. Her money's ours now.
00:01:59You want money? Pick it up!
00:02:14Consider this our donation to mom's surgery.
00:02:18Or funeral.
00:02:31I'll save you, mom.
00:02:38I can sell blood for money.
00:02:40This is the only way I might be able to save mom.
00:03:18I'll take a seat, guys.
00:03:21Look, I've gathered you all here today for a very important announcement.
00:03:2515 years ago, my mother, Mary Miller, disappeared to live a quiet life in a small town.
00:03:30But now, she is returning to take her rightful place as the CEO of the Phoenix Group, ladies and gentlemen.
00:03:37The CEO has finally returned.
00:03:38Ms. Miller raised her son alone to build Phoenix Group.
00:03:42Now, after 15 years, she's coming back!
00:03:45Even out of the public eye, she remains a legend. No one can match what she built.
00:03:50See, although my mother's been living in seclusion, we've remained in contact over the years.
00:03:54And she's adopted three children, who I believe will be joining our company very soon.
00:04:00Sir, we can't find your mother. She isn't answering our calls.
00:04:04What? My mother is missing?
00:04:09I want to sell my blood. Please.
00:04:11I have an extremely rare blood type.
00:04:15Type AB negative.
00:04:16You need it, and I need money for my mother's surgery.
00:04:20Please.
00:04:41We are at 400. I have to stop now, or you'll pass out.
00:04:45No, no. Don't stop. I can do it.
00:04:50Miss? Miss? Miss? Miss? Miss?
00:05:13Grace, I told you to go home and rest. You just fainted from donating all that blood.
00:05:19I'm fine, doctor. How's my mom?
00:05:22Well, the operation was a success, but, Grace, with your mother's condition,
00:05:27we're looking at some very expensive long-term care.
00:05:30I got it, doctor. She's my mom. I won't give up on her.
00:05:36She's very lucky to have you. I'll go work on the list of her medication.
00:05:46You adopted me, mom. You taught me what family was.
00:05:52Love is... Don't worry. I'm not going to give up on you.
00:05:57I'm going to make sure you get better.
00:06:08It's been hours. Where is Miss Miller?
00:06:10If Miss Miller says she's returning, then she will be coming back.
00:06:14Otherwise, Mr. Miller will find her.
00:06:17When she left 15 years ago, she made all of us.
00:06:20Even Mr. Miller promised never to search for her.
00:06:24Did you reach her?
00:06:26Her phone? It's completely dead.
00:06:28She'd never let that happen. Not on the day that she's supposed to return.
00:06:33Something's not right.
00:06:36Do whatever it takes. Flip this city upside down.
00:06:39I don't care, but we're going to find my mother.
00:06:41Yes, sir.
00:06:42Yes, sir.
00:06:49One day at work here will cover three days of mom's medication.
00:07:00Next!
00:07:00No, sir. I'm here to work.
00:07:03Please, if there's any opportunity that you have, I would gladly take it.
00:07:07Come on, Grace. Everyone knows you passed out yesterday at the hospital.
00:07:11I can't have you dying on my sight. I'll lose my damn job.
00:07:14No, please, please. I'm begging you.
00:07:16Please, I really need the money. My mom will die without it.
00:07:19But with treatment, I mean, there's a chance that she may wake up.
00:07:24But if I give up, it's over for her. Please.
00:07:28If I catch you slacking off one time, I won't pay you a single penny.
00:07:36Thank you so much. You can trust me. I am a hard worker. Thank you.
00:07:41Next!
00:07:42Next!
00:07:45Don't worry, Mom. I'll make enough money and you'll get better.
00:08:07All right, time for lunch. Get back to work as soon as you're finished.
00:08:13Grace!
00:08:16Lucy, what's wrong?
00:08:17You have to get home right now, Grace.
00:08:19Your sis and brother are selling your mom's house.
00:08:28We turned this whole house upside down.
00:08:32I can't believe the old hag doesn't even have any savings.
00:08:34Whatever. Just forget it. Let's get down to business.
00:08:36Where's the inheritance letter?
00:08:38You see this, Mom?
00:08:40You ruined our life at a better chance with a rich family.
00:08:44Now, with just one little stamp here, you'll give us what we deserve.
00:08:48As if this old hag can hear you. Just get it over with already.
00:08:55What are you doing?!
00:08:59Mom! Mom, are you okay?
00:09:06You're trying to steal Mom's house? You can't do that! Mom worked hard for it!
00:09:10Fine. If she doesn't want us to sell it, then we won't. Hmm?
00:09:15Go on. Say it. Say it!
00:09:18Hey, you old hag! Is anyone there? Hello? Can you speak up? Speak up!
00:09:22Get your filthy hands off of her!
00:09:26Be honest. You don't actually give a shit about Mom.
00:09:29You're just putting on a little show, hoping she'll magically wake up and give you everything.
00:09:33That's not true! That's...
00:09:35Aw, poor little Grace, trying so hard and your mommy can't even see.
00:09:41If you don't want to take care of Mom, that's fine. I'll do it myself.
00:09:44But I'm not gonna let you take anything away from her.
00:09:47Try and stop us.
00:09:48No!
00:09:55Mom? Mom? Your finger's moving.
00:10:02Would you look at that? She's actually losing it.
00:10:07I saw it. Her finger's moving. She's trying to tell us something.
00:10:10Mom's brain is mush.
00:10:12The only thing moving in her head are the worms eating the rest of it out.
00:10:31You stupid bitch! I'm tired of repeating myself,
00:10:35Mom is dying, dead people don't need a house!
00:10:39You know, William and I just want the best for you, little sis.
00:10:44Say, you and the mayor's son are the same age, right?
00:10:48Mayor's daughter-in-law sounds awfully nice.
00:10:51What? The mayor's daughter-in-law?
00:10:56After you and the mayor's son tie the knot, we'll send that to a nursing home far, far away.
00:11:06She takes up too much space here.
00:11:08So there's the bride for my son.
00:11:18Well, son, she's the girl you said you liked, right?
00:11:22A real virgin.
00:11:24Just like me.
00:11:25All the other girls, they always run away.
00:11:28But not you.
00:11:30You'll be my first.
00:11:32Time to make you mine.
00:11:33No, no, don't touch me!
00:11:45No, no, don't touch me!
00:11:48You can't say no to me!
00:11:49My dad owns this town, nobody says no to me.
00:11:53Look at you, acting so high and mighty.
00:11:55You're still selling your blood, aren't you?
00:11:58Just for a few pennies.
00:12:00We offer you a way out of poverty, and this is the way you repay us.
00:12:05Do you know how rich and powerful the mayor is?
00:12:09Mom's gonna die because you're too proud to spread your legs for the mayor's son.
00:12:13I'm not going to marry him.
00:12:16Don't you see, Grace?
00:12:17William and I are doing this for you and Mom.
00:12:20You should be grateful.
00:12:22Half a million and she's all yours tonight.
00:12:24Steep price for an orphan.
00:12:26I don't care, Dad!
00:12:28You promised me I can have her, and I want her.
00:12:31Give them what they want.
00:12:32If you want a grandson or not, she can work for us.
00:12:35Nice to meet you.
00:12:36Ah!
00:12:41Pleasure doing business with you, sir.
00:12:43My sister's all yours.
00:12:48No, no, no, no, Mom!
00:12:50Mom, please!
00:12:51Don't take me, Mom!
00:13:12No one sells my daughter.
00:13:18No one sells my daughter.
00:13:24Get away from my daughter.
00:13:31Oh, Mom. Thank God you're awake.
00:13:34Don't scare us like that again, okay?
00:13:37I didn't know what to do.
00:13:39Yeah, Mom. We're so happy to have you back.
00:13:41It looks like you know exactly what you're doing.
00:13:49Selling the house.
00:13:51No, Mom. You have the wrong idea.
00:13:53We were selling the house to help pay for your treatment.
00:13:57Treatment? You didn't even want to pay for Mom's surgery.
00:13:59Don't listen to Grace's lies, Mom.
00:14:02William and I have been working day and night to pay for your surgery.
00:14:06No, that's not true. I was selling my blood to pay back...
00:14:09Grace, I know you seduced the mayor's son and are about to marry into a powerful family,
00:14:14but that doesn't mean you can lie to Mom's face.
00:14:16Grace was trying to marry into the mayor's family so she didn't have to take care of you.
00:14:20Rose and I had no choice but to sell the house.
00:14:22Enough.
00:14:23Just because I had my eyes closed doesn't mean that I didn't hear everything you said.
00:14:31And not only were you trying to just sell the house,
00:14:33but you were trying to sell your sister, Grace, as well.
00:14:39Mom, I'm so glad you're awake.
00:14:41I didn't know what else to do.
00:14:43Oh, my sweet daughter.
00:14:46I hurt everything.
00:14:48Everything you did to keep me safe.
00:14:51Your mother will make these ingrits pay for what they did to you.
00:15:00This, this is just a silly house.
00:15:04And I would have given it to you without a second thought.
00:15:08But now, after the stunt that you two pulled,
00:15:11you won't get anything.
00:15:21Well, William and I would have considered looking after you
00:15:25if you were even moderately wealthy.
00:15:27But you're just poor.
00:15:29Do you know how goddamn embarrassing it is to call you our mother?
00:15:36Embarrassing?
00:15:37When we were orphans, nobody wanted us.
00:15:40Mom gave us a home.
00:15:41She saved us.
00:15:45I didn't choose the shitty life she offered us.
00:15:49Poor people shouldn't drag others into their suffering.
00:15:52That's not fair.
00:15:54Take it back.
00:15:57You see this, you old hag?
00:15:59We already have your signature and fingerprint on the inheritance letter.
00:16:03It's too late to stop us now.
00:16:06You're not getting anything from me.
00:16:08Not a single cent.
00:16:13Grace, do you have my phone?
00:16:17Oh, Grace, this is your mom's phone.
00:16:19You can keep it for now.
00:16:21Doctor, this phone is really nice.
00:16:23Are you sure it belongs to my mom?
00:16:25We took it from her pocket right before the surgery.
00:16:39Miss Miller.
00:16:44Alexander.
00:16:45It's me.
00:16:51My mother was in danger.
00:16:53Thanks to her adopted daughter, Grace, she's safe in a small town.
00:16:57I'm heading over there to bring her back home.
00:16:58Someone who dares to threaten Miss Miller must be insane.
00:17:01Let us come with you, sir.
00:17:03We should all be there to welcome her back.
00:17:05And we'll show those who crossed her who's boss.
00:17:11Sir, I've sent John Smith to check on your mother.
00:17:14Make sure he keeps her safe until I get there.
00:17:16These people are going to regret it for crossing her.
00:17:18Yes, sir.
00:17:19Come to mother.
00:17:20Wait, she has another son?
00:17:22No idea who the guy is.
00:17:24Wonder where she found this guy.
00:17:25Probably fished him out of a dumpster.
00:17:27Bet he's just as pathetic as she is.
00:17:29Another worthless charity case.
00:17:32Stop it.
00:17:33That's your brother you're talking about.
00:17:36Relax, Grace.
00:17:38Soon they'll be on their knees begging for forgiveness.
00:17:42Who do you think you are, you old hag?
00:17:44Some kind of superhero?
00:17:45The mayor is related to Mr. Smith.
00:17:48The man who transformed the Sterling Corp into the Phoenix Group's biggest subsidiary.
00:17:53He can make any person disappear.
00:17:55And guess what?
00:17:57They just called them about Gregory's weddings.
00:17:59He should be here at any moment.
00:18:01Mr. Smith?
00:18:02You mean John?
00:18:04Speaking as if she knows him personally.
00:18:07The man controls billions with the nerve on this woman.
00:18:10Let me explain something to you.
00:18:12Phoenix Group isn't just some company.
00:18:15They own everything.
00:18:18They're untouchable gods among men.
00:18:21She probably thinks Phoenix Group is just some bird-watching club.
00:18:26Mark my words.
00:18:28You'll all be on your knees begging for mercy.
00:18:31And when John Smith gets here, he's going to be trembling in his boots.
00:18:49Mr. Smith has important business to attend to.
00:18:51Starting now, all roads headed to the town are closed off.
00:18:55I heard Mr. Smith has barely been seen in public ever since Ms. Miller went into hiding.
00:19:00Wow.
00:19:00If Mr. Smith is going out like this, he must be doing business with a really important person.
00:19:05I never thought I'd ever meet Ms. Miller in person.
00:19:07This is a once-in-a-lifetime chance.
00:19:11She's the pride of the city.
00:19:12But sir, we don't even have a photo of her.
00:19:15We don't know what she looks like.
00:19:16I have other matters to attend to in that town anyway.
00:19:18Let's move out.
00:19:20We'll grab the photo later.
00:19:24Wait, you think Mr. Smith will kneel before someone like you?
00:19:29Oh, don't make me laugh.
00:19:32Oh, she's completely delusional.
00:19:35Enough.
00:19:36I won't stand here and let you insult my mother like this.
00:19:41Know your place and shut up, you stupid bitch.
00:19:52Lay a hand on my daughter one more time, and I'll make sure you don't use that hand again.
00:19:58What's wrong?
00:19:59Our money not good enough for you?
00:20:01Fine.
00:20:02Name your price.
00:20:04Everything has one.
00:20:06Just like you.
00:20:09Oh, how amusing.
00:20:12You think that you can buy me off?
00:20:15I would love to see you try.
00:20:18Hmm.
00:20:22Word is, Ms. Miller has an adoptive daughter, Grace, that's been taking care of her.
00:20:26Without her, we might not see Ms. Miller again.
00:20:28This Grace Miller must be someone special.
00:20:31There aren't a lot of daughters like her out there.
00:20:34It's me.
00:20:35Make sure to arrange an exceptional gift for Ms. Miller.
00:20:39And prepare something special for Grace Miller.
00:20:41Only the best for the girl that saved Ms. Miller.
00:20:46Sir, uh, John Smith should be arriving to town any moment now.
00:20:49The signal there is terrible.
00:20:51I just sent him a photo of Ms. Miller.
00:20:53He should be receiving it shortly.
00:20:55Look, my mother likes to keep low profile.
00:20:56So I want you to tell our people to shut down the entire neighborhood, okay?
00:21:00I don't want anyone seeing my mother.
00:21:02Yes, sir.
00:21:03You think that you can buy me?
00:21:06Well, just look at you.
00:21:07Wearing those rags, living in this filthy place.
00:21:11And you have the nerve to reject my son.
00:21:14People like you should be on your knees, kissing our feet, thanking us for the chance at a better life.
00:21:22Your son is a worthless parasite that vultures would refuse to eat.
00:21:31How dare you speak that way about my son?
00:21:48I was abandoned as a child.
00:21:52When I was 15 years old, my mom took me in and gave me a home.
00:21:56You may just see her as another nobody, working lowly jobs with little money.
00:22:02But to me, she's the greatest mom in the world.
00:22:07She's my everything.
00:22:08And I'm not just going to stand here and let you humiliate her.
00:22:11Boo-hoo.
00:22:13I'm in tears.
00:22:14Who cares that we insult this old hag?
00:22:16My husband is the mayor.
00:22:19And we can do anything we want, as a matter of fact.
00:22:22My son can take you right here.
00:22:24And right now, if he wants.
00:22:29Time to teach my wife some manners.
00:22:31No, no, no, no, stay back, please.
00:22:34You will all regret this.
00:22:37No, stay back, please.
00:22:47Holy shit.
00:22:48Is that John Smith?
00:22:49The mayor's got some family problems from what I hear.
00:22:52And he's probably just here to help them out.
00:22:59What the hell?
00:23:00No, no, no.
00:23:01Go where?
00:23:02No.
00:23:03I could assure you, the consequences for spreading unverified rumors in front of Mr. Smith are
00:23:10serious.
00:23:10Mr. Smith, please let us go.
00:23:12Please, sir.
00:23:13Let us go.
00:23:13We had nothing to do with this.
00:23:15You should be talking to that family over there who rejected the mayor's son.
00:23:20You're lying.
00:23:21Who dare reject Gregory Warren?
00:23:23Don't they know he's related to Mr. Smith?
00:23:25We're not lying, sir.
00:23:27You can see for yourself.
00:23:28Our house is at the end of this road.
00:23:30All right.
00:23:32Looks like I'll have to take care of this myself.
00:23:35Don't let go of me.
00:23:36Let go.
00:23:37Let go.
00:23:44Hit her again, mother.
00:23:46We offer you everything and you choose to stay in this filth?
00:23:50Fine.
00:23:50Stay here and rot.
00:23:52My mother's love means everything to me.
00:23:55I'd rather stay in poverty by her side than live in a cage without her.
00:24:00Too bad that's not your decision to make.
00:24:06Too bad that's not your decision to make.
00:24:08Mr. Smith?
00:24:10He actually came.
00:24:11Only the famous John Smith could arrive in such style.
00:24:14Mr. Smith, thank you for coming.
00:24:16What's going on here?
00:24:17You're related to someone like me.
00:24:19Finding your son a wife should be the easiest thing in the world.
00:24:22It's these arrogant fools, sir.
00:24:24They have no idea the privilege they're throwing away.
00:24:27And Mr. Smith, they even had the audacity to threaten you.
00:24:31Said you would tremble before him.
00:24:33What?
00:24:34Someone dare threaten the John Smith?
00:24:37The head of Phoenix Group's most powerful subsidiary?
00:24:41The man that no one crosses.
00:24:44Yes, it's that woman right over there.
00:24:52Hello, John.
00:24:55Why does her voice sound so familiar?
00:24:59Just now, Phoenix Group CEO Mary Miller, one of the most powerful figures in our city,
00:25:05has relinquished full control of the company to her son.
00:25:10Mary, do you have anything to say?
00:25:11Anything to say at all, Mary, about the transition of power?
00:25:15Ms. Miller.
00:25:16Ms. Miller.
00:25:19Ms. Miller.
00:25:20I owe everything to you.
00:25:22You started Sterling Corps and gave me my position.
00:25:24If you're really planning on leaving Phoenix Group, please, at least, let me drive you home.
00:25:31If you really want to share your gratitude, take good care of Sterling Group.
00:25:36I'm counting on you.
00:25:42How dare you use Mr. Smith's first name?
00:25:44Keep our boss's name out of your mouth or else I'll...
00:25:47Wait!
00:25:52You keep our boss's name out of your mouth or else I'll...
00:25:55Wait!
00:25:57You.
00:25:58You know who I am.
00:25:59Mr. Smith, listen to this filth trying to pretend she knows you.
00:26:03Yes, I do know you, John.
00:26:07How dare you address Mr. Smith like that?
00:26:10Trash like you should show respect!
00:26:13Mr. Smith, this is just some old woman who works as a cheap laborer at the orphanage nearby.
00:26:18A day laborer?
00:26:20I must have mistaken her for someone else.
00:26:22What happened to all your threats?
00:26:24Weren't you just saying how Mr. Smith would tremble and fall to his knees?
00:26:28You said that?
00:26:29I did.
00:26:30Who do you think you are, huh?
00:26:32Don't touch my mom.
00:26:35Oh, you want to be brave too?
00:26:38Huh?
00:26:40Mr. Smith, it's a message from Mr. Miller.
00:26:43It's a photo of Mrs. Miller.
00:26:49It's a photo of Mrs. Miller.
00:26:51You mean Miss Miller?
00:26:53Yeah.
00:26:53She's Phoenix Group's CEO.
00:26:56They say she controls all the city.
00:26:57But she disappeared years ago, when she gave control to her son when he turned 18.
00:27:03We could have been living the high life if she had adopted us instead of being stuck with this worthless
00:27:07woman.
00:27:09Mr. Smith, you see, everything's ready for the wedding.
00:27:12If you could just help us convince the bride.
00:27:15Miss Miller is here in town somewhere.
00:27:16I have to find and greet her.
00:27:18Can't let this petty situation get in the way.
00:27:21Take her to the church.
00:27:23No, let me go.
00:27:24I won't marry him.
00:27:25I need to stay with my mom.
00:27:27Try to get past me.
00:27:28See how that works.
00:27:34Try to get past me.
00:27:36See how that works out for you.
00:27:37Move aside now.
00:27:39Mr. Smith is due to welcome back the CEO of Phoenix Group.
00:27:43If you and your daughter get in the way, you'll pay the price.
00:27:50So, this is how you run Sterling Group now.
00:27:53Torment the weak?
00:27:55Throw your weight around?
00:27:56Shut your damn mouth.
00:27:58Stripper.
00:28:00Let her mother watch what happens to people who defy me.
00:28:05You are making your last mistake.
00:28:08You think I'm scared of some empty threats from an old hag in a wheelchair?
00:28:13What are you going to do about it?
00:28:15No, no, no, no.
00:28:18No.
00:28:26Huh.
00:28:45How could I be so foolish?
00:28:46Miss Miller, the CEO of Phoenix Group, is right in front of my eyes.
00:28:52Mr. Smith is about to teach this old woman a lesson that she should never open her mouth.
00:28:57Just watch.
00:28:58Well, that'll teach you to disrespect someone like Mr. Smith.
00:29:02Crawl on the ground and beg for forgiveness, you pathetic old hag.
00:29:05That's right.
00:29:06Go on and grovel before he destroys you.
00:29:10I have no need to apologize.
00:29:12I meant every word that I said.
00:29:15I said that when John Smith gets here, he will tremble and fall to his knees.
00:29:20And that is exactly what will happen.
00:29:24What planet are you even living on?
00:29:27You're not just a beggar.
00:29:28You're a complete lunatic.
00:29:30Oh, yeah.
00:30:03Sir, what's the matter?
00:30:05On your knees.
00:30:06But sir, she's just some...
00:30:07I said on your knees!
00:30:15Are you all deaf?
00:30:17Get on your knees!
00:30:19Mr. Smith, what's this all about?
00:30:21Are you not feeling well?
00:30:23What did this brain-dead bitch do to him?
00:30:26Get him away before whatever's riding in her head spreads!
00:30:30Mr. Smith, what are you doing?
00:30:34I'm warning you.
00:30:35Do not disrespect this woman.
00:30:38She is.
00:30:40She is.
00:30:41She is nothing but a pathetic waste of space.
00:30:44She can't even stand on her own two feet.
00:30:47Her brain is riding away, and she doesn't have a penny to her name.
00:30:50Are you seriously going to defend this old witch?
00:30:58Looks like you remember me now, John.
00:31:01Why don't you tell everyone else who I am?
00:31:03Go ahead.
00:31:06Address him as Mr. Smith, you disrespectful old hag.
00:31:12Mr. Smith, we never wanted her as her mother.
00:31:15We've already cut ties with this woman.
00:31:17We don't support her behavior at all.
00:31:20Please, don't punish us for her actions.
00:31:24I understand you're upset, Mr. Smith.
00:31:26Let me remove this worthless woman.
00:31:33Leave, all of you.
00:31:37Mr. Smith, why are you protecting her?
00:31:39She's beneath you.
00:31:40Mr. Smith, please.
00:31:42We're family.
00:31:43Family?
00:31:44You're just distant relatives.
00:31:47The only reason I maintain contact with you
00:31:50is because someone told me to never forget where I came from,
00:31:53and that someone was her.
00:31:56She helped me build Sterling Core for nothing.
00:32:06John, return my daughter to me,
00:32:08and we'll discuss your actions later.
00:32:11Yes, Ms. Miller.
00:32:25No one will ever hurt you again, okay?
00:32:30Who the hell are you?
00:32:39On behalf of Sterling Core,
00:32:41I formally welcome you back to Phoenix Group.
00:32:44Welcome back, boss.
00:32:48She is the CEO of Phoenix Group?
00:32:55Phoenix Group CEO.
00:32:58Huh, that's impossible.
00:33:00There must be some mistake.
00:33:01This old hag doesn't even have money.
00:33:03Just look at her.
00:33:04Yeah, the richest CEO in the country wearing bargain bin clothes,
00:33:08working at an orphanage, and living in this dump.
00:33:11Please.
00:33:12Do you even hear yourself?
00:33:14If it wasn't for Ms. Miller living a modest life,
00:33:16you'd still be orphans, you ungrateful brats.
00:33:21And you.
00:33:23You must be the adoptive daughter who saved Ms. Miller.
00:33:26Don't be afraid.
00:33:28You're Ms. Miller's daughter,
00:33:29and the only one who protected her.
00:33:31And now, Sterling Core will protect you.
00:33:33If anyone tries to harm you,
00:33:35they'll pay the price.
00:33:37I just want to stay with my mom and take care of her.
00:33:40Please.
00:33:42Don't let them force me to marry this man.
00:33:47My sweet girl.
00:33:51No way!
00:33:52My parents paid good money for you,
00:33:53so you belong to me now.
00:33:55Your mother can run into nursing home for all I care.
00:33:58Nobody touches my daughter.
00:33:59John, break his wrist!
00:34:03John, break his wrist!
00:34:10Mr. Smith, please don't do this!
00:34:12Please, he's our only son!
00:34:13Please, he's all we've got!
00:34:15You love your son like I love my daughter,
00:34:18and yet you let him terrorize Grace,
00:34:21and you didn't say anything.
00:34:24And now you want to apologize?
00:34:27It's too late.
00:34:28But your daughter is fine.
00:34:30Do you really have to do this?
00:34:32If I let this go today,
00:34:33then you'll keep terrorizing those weaker than you,
00:34:37like my daughter.
00:34:37So today there will be a lesson
00:34:39for not only your son,
00:34:41but for everyone else.
00:34:42Mark my words.
00:34:45Who do you think you are
00:34:47barking at my parents and brother?
00:34:49Move or I'll end you all!
00:34:54Brittany, my sweet daughter.
00:34:56Thank God you're here.
00:34:57Don't worry, Dad.
00:34:59I've got this under control.
00:35:01Did you forget?
00:35:03My boyfriend is Alexander Miller's assistant.
00:35:07So what, young lady?
00:35:09And this is Alexander's mother,
00:35:10Miss Miller,
00:35:11CEO of Phoenix Group.
00:35:14She is not the CEO of Phoenix Group.
00:35:17She's a fraud!
00:35:21What are you talking about?
00:35:23Just because you're dating Alexander's lapdog
00:35:25doesn't mean you can run your mouth
00:35:26and spread lies.
00:35:27Lies?
00:35:28I've seen the Phoenix Group CEO
00:35:30with my own two eyes.
00:35:32She got me a present for my birthday.
00:35:42Sean, what's wrong?
00:35:44Today's my girlfriend's birthday
00:35:45and she wants me to invite
00:35:47Miss Mary Miller to her party.
00:35:50What?
00:35:51She's so secluded
00:35:52even her own son can't see her
00:35:54whenever he wants.
00:35:55How do you expect her
00:35:57to agree to meet your girlfriend?
00:36:00Wait.
00:36:02What if you pretend to be her?
00:36:04Nobody even knows
00:36:05what she looks like
00:36:06outside of the board anyway.
00:36:08Pretend to be CEO
00:36:09for my girlfriend's birthday party
00:36:11and I'll get working on that promotion
00:36:13that you've been wanting for years.
00:36:18Oh yeah?
00:36:20Hmm.
00:36:21Fine.
00:36:22I'll do it.
00:36:24Young lady,
00:36:26I don't know who your family is
00:36:28but you better believe
00:36:29that I could destroy them
00:36:31with one phone call.
00:36:33Everyone here sees
00:36:34that you're just broke
00:36:35and delusional.
00:36:37Cut the act,
00:36:38you widowed hag!
00:36:42Don't say I didn't warn you.
00:36:44I'm going to have my boyfriend
00:36:45expose you for the fraud
00:36:47you really are.
00:37:01I'm on my way.

00:37:05absolutely spectacular, okay?
00:37:07It's time to show this city
00:37:09who's really been behind our success.
00:37:11Also, I want you to get
00:37:12something for that girl.

00:37:14that's been taking care of her.

00:37:16so get her something grand
00:37:17as well.

00:37:24for me.
00:37:25It's about Brittany.
00:37:26Someone causing
00:37:27your girlfriend trouble?
00:37:29Don't worry,
00:37:30I'll handle it.
00:37:31I'll make them beg for mercy
00:37:32for what they've done.
00:37:33Take her right here.
00:37:35Gotta handle something for Sean.
00:37:37Yes, sir.
00:37:42Hear that?
00:37:43My daughter's boyfriend
00:37:44is Alexander Miller's assistant.
00:37:46He's one of Phoenix group's
00:37:48rising stars.
00:37:49You picked the wrong people
00:37:50to mess with.
00:37:51You're done for.
00:37:53Thank God we cut ties
00:37:54with you,
00:37:54you crazy old witch.
00:37:55You almost gave me
00:37:57a heart attack,
00:37:58you old hag.
00:37:59Turns out,
00:37:59you were a fraud all along.
00:38:01You!
00:38:03Who would have thought
00:38:04our daughter
00:38:05would end up dating
00:38:06Alexander's right-hand man?
00:38:08When her boyfriend
00:38:09gets here,
00:38:10we're gonna strip you
00:38:11and your daughter
00:38:12naked and throw you
00:38:13into the streets.
00:38:15Let everyone see
00:38:15how we treat liars
00:38:17like you.
00:38:17I'm afraid you're in
00:38:19for quite a disappointment.
00:38:21Still acting tough?
00:38:23You really are shameless.
00:38:25Mom.
00:38:26John,
00:38:27handle this right now.
00:38:29She's scaring my daughter.
00:38:31Yes, Miss Miller.
00:38:37Oh,
00:38:40I'm sorry.
00:38:42Oh, I'm sorry.
00:38:44Back off, John!
00:38:45You're just some
00:38:46low-level manager.
00:38:47My boyfriend
00:38:48will destroy your career
00:38:49if you touch me!
00:38:53Did you just hit me?
00:38:56Not bad for an old hag.
00:38:59I get it now, John.
00:39:00You're siding with this hag
00:39:02because she crawled
00:39:02into your bed.
00:39:03You disgusting little...
00:39:05Oh,
00:39:06did I hurt her nerve?
00:39:08Just wait
00:39:09until my boyfriend
00:39:09gets here.
00:39:10I'm going to tell him
00:39:11that you hit me
00:39:12for this old slut.
00:39:14You're dead!
00:39:15You really think
00:39:17your boyfriend
00:39:18is that important?
00:39:20To me.
00:39:22He's nothing.
00:39:23Like,
00:39:24he doesn't even deserve
00:39:25to clean the dirt
00:39:26off my shoes.
00:39:28Nobody insults
00:39:29Mr. Sean Parker
00:39:30and lives to talk about it.
00:39:32Mike?
00:39:34Why are you alone?
00:39:35Where's Sean?
00:39:36Relax, Miss.
00:39:37Sean and Miss Miller
00:39:38have more important matters
00:39:39than dealing with trash.
00:39:40So,
00:39:41who's been causing trouble
00:39:42for my boss's girlfriend?
00:39:44It was this piece
00:39:45piece of garbage
00:39:46right here.
00:39:47She said that
00:39:48Mr. Sean Parker
00:39:49didn't deserve
00:39:50to clean the dirt
00:39:50off her shoes.
00:39:52And she's pretending
00:39:53to be the CEO
00:39:54of Phoenix Group,
00:39:55Miss Miller.
00:39:58Miss Miller?
00:40:02Miss Miller,
00:40:04old hag.
00:40:05You've got some nerve
00:40:06pretending to be Miss Miller.
00:40:08Open your eyes.
00:40:10She is Miss Miller.
00:40:12Right.
00:40:13And I'm the Queen
00:40:13of England.
00:40:14Tell you what.
00:40:17If she's really
00:40:18the CEO,
00:40:19I'll tattoo
00:40:20fool on my forehead.
00:40:23Nice performance,
00:40:24John.
00:40:24Good thing I met
00:40:25the real CEO
00:40:26at Brittany's birthday party
00:40:27or I might have fallen
00:40:28for your little act.
00:40:29I don't know
00:40:30who you think you met,
00:40:31but that was not
00:40:32the CEO.
00:40:34If my mom
00:40:35really lied,
00:40:35it was to protect me
00:40:36from being forced
00:40:37to marry the mayor's son.
00:40:39But if she isn't
00:40:40the CEO of Phoenix Group,
00:40:42then I apologize.
00:40:44Just please,
00:40:46don't hurt my mother.
00:40:48Well,
00:40:49what do we have here?
00:40:50Quite the prey little thing.
00:40:53Since you're
00:40:53such a good daughter,
00:40:55I'll let this lie.
00:40:57Under one condition.
00:41:01Marry the mayor's son.
00:41:06And I'll forgive
00:41:07your mother's lies.
00:41:08Grace,
00:41:09don't listen to this fool.
00:41:12Mom,
00:41:14I never thought
00:41:16that I would have
00:41:16a real family.
00:41:18And then you adopted me.
00:41:21You gave me everything.
00:41:24Love, protection,
00:41:25a life.
00:41:28I owe you everything.
00:41:31So if...
00:41:33So if marrying
00:41:34the mayor's son
00:41:36will protect you,
00:41:39then I'll do it.
00:41:44Back off
00:41:45while you still can.
00:41:47If you hurt Grace
00:41:48or cross Miss Miller,
00:41:49you'll pay the price.
00:41:50Look at you,
00:41:51John.
00:41:51Completely entangled
00:41:53in this fraud spell.
00:41:54You know what's
00:41:55going to happen today,
00:41:55John?
00:41:56Huh?
00:41:57The real Miss Miller
00:41:59is returning
00:41:59to Phoenix Group.
00:42:00When Alexander finds out
00:42:02you're helping
00:42:03some imposter,
00:42:05you're finished.
00:42:07Miss Miller's returning
00:42:08to Phoenix Group today?
00:42:10With your boyfriend
00:42:11being Mr. Miller's assistant,
00:42:14surely you'll meet
00:42:14Miss Miller.
00:42:15Oh, please,
00:42:17let me come with you.
00:42:18I'd do anything
00:42:20to see Miss Miller.
00:42:22Miss Miller
00:42:23is a very private person.
00:42:25Most employees
00:42:26haven't even seen her.
00:42:28Well, I guess
00:42:29I could let you
00:42:29see her from a distance.
00:42:33Now then,
00:42:34time to deal
00:42:35with our
00:42:36little problem.
00:42:38Can't have these
00:42:39frauds
00:42:39causing trouble
00:42:40on such an important day.
00:42:44You fool!
00:42:45This woman
00:42:46is the real CEO
00:42:47of Phoenix Group.
00:42:48Mr. Miller
00:42:49sent me her photo.
00:42:50It's right here.
00:42:54It's right here.
00:42:59A photo?
00:43:00That can't prove anything.
00:43:02Anyone could fake
00:43:02that using AI.
00:43:03With AI these days,
00:43:05you can make
00:43:05any photo you want.
00:43:07You can't fool us.
00:43:08Look at her.
00:43:10She's just a pathetic
00:43:11nothing.
00:43:12Faking photos
00:43:13to play CEO?
00:43:14God.
00:43:15I've never seen
00:43:16anyone so desperate.
00:43:17What happened
00:43:18to all that talk
00:43:19about honesty
00:43:20and respect
00:43:20as we grew up,
00:43:22Mom?
00:43:22Or does that not apply
00:43:23to an old hag like you?
00:43:25You are good-looking
00:43:28for your age.
00:43:29No wonder you've got
00:43:30John wrapped around
00:43:31your finger,
00:43:33you witch.
00:43:33Shut your damn mouth!
00:43:35Stay away from her,
00:43:36you monster!
00:43:40Good thing we've got
00:43:41some time on our hands
00:43:42anyway.
00:43:43And broke?
00:43:45Single moms
00:43:46are my favorite kind of...
00:43:50A feisty one, huh?
00:43:53Just the way I like it.
00:44:07You sure this is
00:44:08the right location?
00:44:09The coordinates
00:44:10let us here, sir.
00:44:11The mayor will know
00:44:12where she is.
00:44:13This is perfect!
00:44:15The mayor's about to see
00:44:16his future son-in-law
00:44:17working right beside
00:44:18the great Alexander Miller.
00:44:20This couldn't be better.
00:44:21Well, then what are we
00:44:21waiting for?
00:44:22Let's go find the mayor.
00:44:24Yes, sir.
00:44:30Um, this is private
00:44:32property, you can't
00:44:33show-
00:44:33That is Alexander Miller
00:44:34of the Phoenix Group
00:44:35that you're speaking to.
00:44:38Where is the mayor?
00:44:39I need him to find my mother.
00:44:42Alexander Miller?
00:44:43It is an honor to meet you.
00:44:46We did not expect you
00:44:47to show up at this
00:44:47wedding celebration.
00:44:49Wait a second.
00:44:50The wedding?
00:44:51Yes, the mayor's
00:44:52son's getting married.
00:44:53We didn't realize
00:44:54someone of your
00:44:55VIP status
00:44:56would be here.
00:44:57I didn't realize
00:44:58the mayor had
00:44:59such great connection.
00:45:00Right?
00:45:01Oh, that old woman
00:45:02will now regret
00:45:03not marrying her daughter
00:45:05into the mayor's family.
00:45:07Can you believe that?
00:45:08That dead, broke vegetable?
00:45:09She acts all high and mighty,
00:45:11but you know what?
00:45:13That girl's not even
00:45:13really her daughter.
00:45:14She's adopted.
00:45:16That woman.
00:45:18Is she a single mother
00:45:20to three orphans?
00:45:22That's her, all right.
00:45:23But don't worry, sir, okay?
00:45:25The mayor has this town
00:45:26under control.
00:45:27And you know what?
00:45:28He's going to teach
00:45:29that old ha-
00:45:29Oh!
00:45:30Oh!
00:45:31Oh!
00:45:32What did you just call her?
00:45:34That woman you just insulted
00:45:36is my mother.
00:45:38The CEO of the Phoenix Group.
00:45:40The CEO of the Phoenix Group.
00:45:42That can't be.
00:45:45Pick that piece of shit up
00:45:47and have him take us
00:45:47to my mother.
00:45:48Yes, sir.
00:45:54You will regret every word
00:45:55that you said
00:45:56about the Miller family.
00:45:57Once Miss Miller comes back,
00:45:59her daughter Grace
00:46:00will be a part
00:46:01of the Phoenix family.
00:46:02If you think
00:46:03the mayor's son
00:46:04can marry some of her stature,
00:46:06you're delusional.
00:46:08I want to meet
00:46:09this mayor myself.
00:46:11The audacity
00:46:12to treat Miss Miller
00:46:13and her daughter like this?
00:46:17Oh, I need to warn the mayor.
00:46:21Just the way I like it.
00:46:25How dare you talk
00:46:26to Miss Miller like that?
00:46:28Ah!
00:46:32Joe, is she wants
00:46:33a real man now, John?
00:46:34By the time I'm done with her,
00:46:36she won't be moving
00:46:36that wheelchair anymore.
00:46:38Your problem is with me.
00:46:40Sterling Corp protects her on,
00:46:41and we will die
00:46:42defending our boss.
00:46:47Must be giving John
00:46:48something real special.
00:46:49Why else would he risk
00:46:50everything with Phoenix
00:46:51to back up
00:46:52your pathetic lives?
00:46:53You won't live
00:46:54to see another day.
00:46:56Then I better make
00:46:57the most of now.
00:47:02please stop.
00:47:04Everyone stop.
00:47:07What is it?
00:47:08Can't you see we're busy?
00:47:10That woman,
00:47:10you're threatening,
00:47:11she,
00:47:11she,
00:47:12she,
00:47:12she,
00:47:16she,
00:47:17she,
00:47:17she,
00:47:17she,
00:47:17she's nothing
00:47:18but an old widow.
00:47:20This is our town.
00:47:21We know what we're doing.
00:47:22Right,
00:47:23especially with Alexander's people
00:47:25on our side.
00:47:26The sky could fall right now
00:47:28and I'm still gonna have
00:47:28my fun with you.
00:47:30Yeah,
00:47:31well when it falls,
00:47:33you'll be the first one
00:47:34to crumble.
00:47:35This is Phoenix Group's turf,
00:47:38and I'm Sean Parker's
00:47:39right-hand man.
00:47:40Your precious boss
00:47:41should be on your knees
00:47:42before me.
00:47:42Just because you're
00:47:43some assistant's lap dog,
00:47:46it doesn't mean
00:47:46you're untouchable.
00:47:48Why don't you just
00:47:49make the call?
00:47:50Then we'll see
00:47:51how untouchable
00:47:52you really are.
00:47:54What's wrong?
00:47:55Are you getting nervous?
00:47:56Who could she possibly call?
00:47:58It's not like she has
00:47:59Alexander on speed dial.
00:48:03Let her make the call.
00:48:05I want to see
00:48:06who this pathetic widow
00:48:07runs to for help.
00:48:10Go ahead.
00:48:11Show us these powerful
00:48:11connections of yours.
00:48:14Stop!
00:48:15Don't let her make the call!
00:48:17Stop!
00:48:18Don't let her
00:48:19make the call!
00:48:20Shut your worthless mouth!
00:48:23You have no right
00:48:24to speak here!
00:48:25Afraid of a little
00:48:26phone call?
00:48:27That's Mike
00:48:28from Phoenix Group.
00:48:29No one in this city
00:48:31dares cross it.
00:48:33But, but, but she's...
00:48:35But, but, but...
00:48:36Can't even form a sentence?
00:48:38What, do you think
00:48:39this nobody's gonna call
00:48:40the Alexander Miller?
00:48:42Not another word.
00:48:43You're wasting our time.
00:48:44I need to get ready
00:48:46to meet the real
00:48:47Miss Miller later
00:48:47when she returns
00:48:48to the company.
00:48:49Brittany's right.
00:48:50We're about to welcome back
00:48:52the great Miss Miller.
00:48:54Nothing's changing that.
00:48:55Don't say I didn't
00:48:56give you a chance.
00:48:58Make your call, you fraud.
00:49:09Who's this?
00:49:10Mother?
00:49:11Mother?
00:49:17I can't believe
00:49:18they do this.
00:49:19Look, Mom, I got this.
00:49:21Don't worry, don't worry.
00:49:22I'm gonna handle this, okay?
00:49:23I know exactly what to do.
00:49:27So, you're this old hag's
00:49:28emergency contact.
00:49:30Guess what?
00:49:31You're screwed
00:49:32because my boyfriend
00:49:33is Sean Parker,
00:49:35Mr. Miller's
00:49:36right-hand man.
00:49:38Sean is your boyfriend, huh?
00:49:39Are you deaf or dumb?
00:49:41And how dare you refer to
00:49:42Sean by his first name?
00:49:43He is Alexander Miller's
00:49:46right-hand man.
00:49:47So, watch yourself.
00:49:48Brittany, you're speaking
00:49:49to Alexander Miller himself.
00:49:51Well, you're gonna find out
00:49:52soon enough.
00:49:53My boyfriend
00:49:54is Alexander Miller's man.
00:49:56He is going to destroy you.
00:49:59What?
00:50:00You wanna talk to Mike Hanson?
00:50:06How does your contact
00:50:07know my name?
00:50:08Talk to him.
00:50:10Find out.
00:50:10What happened, Mike?
00:50:12He's scared to answer the phone.
00:50:13Shut up!
00:50:14Sean has my back.
00:50:16Why would I be scared
00:50:17of some loser
00:50:18this hag call?
00:50:20Who are you?
00:50:21How the hell
00:50:21do you know my name?
00:50:29The signals are always bad here.
00:50:31We need to get to my mother
00:50:31in five minutes.
00:50:32Let's go.
00:50:32Move.
00:50:33Come on.
00:50:34Yes, sir.
00:50:34Yes, sir.
00:50:38You really had me fooled
00:50:39for a second there.
00:50:40I thought your friend
00:50:41was someone important.
00:50:42Turns out,
00:50:43he's just a coward.
00:50:44Couldn't even speak
00:50:45when he heard my voice.
00:50:46Couldn't say a word.
00:50:48Pathetic.
00:50:49Mike scared him speechless.
00:50:51Not so tough now,
00:50:53are you?
00:50:53You were, uh,
00:50:55clever.
00:50:56I'll give you that.
00:51:00I don't know
00:51:00how you managed
00:51:01to tell that friend
00:51:02of yours my name,
00:51:03but, uh,
00:51:04who cares?
00:51:06He's a spineless coward
00:51:08who can't even talk to me,
00:51:09let alone touch me.
00:51:10Stay away from her.
00:51:27That's right.
00:51:29Keep your last name.
00:51:42Filthy slut
00:51:44You make me sick
00:51:57It came from over there
00:51:58Let's go
00:52:03The mayor's family is finished
00:52:15Shame
00:52:15Should have been a kill shot
00:52:20You just burnt your last bridge
00:52:22You will regret this
00:52:24I'm just punishing a couple troublemakers
00:52:27Is that a crime?
00:52:31Now
00:52:32It's just you and me
00:52:33Don't worry
00:52:34I can treat you better than John ever could
00:52:51Did you have another nightmare?
00:52:53Yeah
00:52:54I'm sorry, sweetheart
00:52:57You know I will always be here to protect you, right?
00:53:02I'm so sorry you have to go through that
00:53:05Mom
00:53:07Mom
00:53:30This time
00:53:33Beaten into them
00:53:35Please I'm begging you
00:53:36Don't hurt my mom
00:53:38Let her go and I'll marry Gregory
00:53:40I swear
00:53:42I swear
00:53:42Well that's better
00:53:45Ew
00:53:46Ew
00:53:53Ugh
00:53:55You've had your fun
00:53:56Wrap it up
00:53:59Such a shame
00:54:00Such a shame
00:54:00I was just getting started
00:54:02When I'm done with you
00:54:03You're gonna regret you were ever born
00:54:06Still making threats?
00:54:08An old hag like you should be grateful I even want to touch you
00:54:11If Britney
00:54:13Hadn't interrupted
00:54:16We'd be having some real fun right now
00:54:19Having fun with who?
00:54:38Who is he?
00:54:39That's some entrance
00:54:40Look at those clothes
00:54:42Must be connected to the mayor
00:54:46Oh my sweetheart
00:54:57Mom
00:54:58Is
00:54:59Is that really Miss Miller?
00:55:02You're not quite the entourage, baby
00:55:04All this backup, just your little old me
00:55:07Britney
00:55:08You don't understand
00:55:09This is, um
00:55:11Alexander Miller
00:55:12I didn't think you'd come here yourself
00:55:14Alexander who?
00:55:15Alexander Miller?
00:55:18That's Alexander Miller?
00:55:20Miss Miller's son?
00:55:26Shit
00:55:26That's Alexander Miller?
00:55:29He's even dreamier in person
00:55:32Sir, that woman is delusional
00:55:34She claims she's your mother
00:55:36The CEO of Phoenix School
00:55:38Sir, it's my son's wedding today
00:55:41We would be honored if you could attend the reception
00:55:44Uh, after you meet with the real Miss Miller
00:55:47It's an honor to meet you, sir
00:55:49I'm Sean's girlfriend
00:55:51The mayor's daughter
00:55:52You can call me Britney
00:55:53If you need anything in this town
00:55:56My family's at your service
00:55:59Ah!
00:56:00Britney
00:56:00Shut up
00:56:01What?
00:56:03It's not every day you meet
00:56:04The Alexander Miller
00:56:06Also think about it
00:56:08If Miss Miller comes to my brother's wedding party too
00:56:11We'll be the talk of the town
00:56:13If you want to invite my mother to your party
00:56:16Then why don't you ask her yourself
00:56:17Oh, what a brilliant idea
00:56:20If you would be so kind as to lead us to her
00:56:22There's no need for that
00:56:24My mother is here
00:56:25Right
00:56:26Now
00:56:32Where, where is she?
00:56:36Sir
00:56:38Are you playing some kind of trick on us?
00:56:40I don't see Miss Miller anywhere
00:56:42I would certainly recognize her if she was in my town
00:56:45Well, of course you would
00:56:46Nothing happens here without the mayor knowing about it
00:56:50Are you suggesting I wouldn't recognize my own mother?
00:56:56If what you're saying is true
00:56:57When did she come to our town?
00:57:00Fifteen years ago
00:57:01My mother came here to live in seclusion
00:57:04After she stepped down as the Phoenix CEO
00:57:08Fifteen years ago?
00:57:10That's not possible
00:57:18I'm so sorry it took so long, mother
00:57:23Come here
00:57:24Come here, my son
00:57:25You've gotten so old
00:57:29I missed you
00:57:32You're a beautiful man now
00:57:42Phoenix Group CEO?
00:57:44Oh, impossible
00:57:50She's really Miss Miller?
00:57:52Phoenix Group CEO?
00:57:54There has to be some mistake
00:57:56She's nothing but a filthy woman who works for the orphanage
00:58:01That fucker could not possibly be the real Miss Miller
00:58:07Miss Miller
00:58:08Please excuse my girlfriend's disgraceful behavior
00:58:13I take full responsibility
00:58:16Punish me as you see fit
00:58:17Our adoptive mother is the famous Miss Miller?
00:58:24What have we done?
00:58:28One moment, mother
00:58:30Are you Grace?
00:58:34Take care, mother
00:58:37Let me handle this
00:58:41Now it's time for you all to explain yourselves
00:58:50This is all a misunderstanding
00:58:57Apologize to my mother
00:58:58Now
00:59:03Miss Miller
00:59:03I beg of you
00:59:04I'm sorry
00:59:05I'm so, so sorry
00:59:07You're only apologizing now
00:59:09Because you know who I am
00:59:10As I said
00:59:13You would regret being born
00:59:15Guards
00:59:16Get him out of my sight
00:59:17Make sure I never see his face in the city again
00:59:24Sean, if that's the real Miss Miller
00:59:26Then who did you invite to my birthday dinner?
00:59:29Tell her
00:59:29Tell her she's never really met me
00:59:31Tell her that I'm the real CEO of Phoenix Group
00:59:42You thought you actually deserved to see the real Miss Miller?
00:59:45It was just some employee that I paid to pretend
00:59:48I didn't think you'd be stupid enough to not notice
00:59:51And now, look at the trouble you've caused
00:59:56Miss Miller
00:59:57This worthless girl has caused nothing but trouble
01:00:00I'll kill her myself if you'll forgive me
01:00:02Someone like you
01:00:04Doesn't even deserve to work at the Phoenix Group
01:00:07Remove him
01:00:13Miss Miller
01:00:16We were wrong
01:00:17We'll never do anything like this again
01:00:20Please
01:00:21Have mercy
01:00:22Forgive us
01:00:24Just this once
01:00:25You all tortured people
01:00:27For years
01:00:29If I was to forgive you
01:00:31You would go on and continue to hurt innocent people
01:00:34Take them away
01:00:36Deal with them accordingly
01:00:38Take them away
01:00:39Take them away
01:00:40Take them away
01:00:40No
01:00:41No
01:00:42No
01:00:42No
01:00:48Where do you think you're going?
01:00:49Listen, I am not done with you two
01:00:55What are you planning on doing with these two?
01:00:57You two wanted this house so badly
01:01:00Burn it down
01:01:02You don't deserve it
01:01:03You heard my mother
01:01:04Burn it down
01:01:05Now
01:01:06Yes, sir
01:01:06Yes, sir
01:01:34Mother
01:01:36Mother
01:01:37Mother, please
01:01:38For your children
01:01:50All these years in seclusion
01:01:52I gave you everything
01:01:54And yet all you wanted was for me to die?
01:01:57You've really shown your true colors
01:01:59And you know what?
01:02:01Now you never have to call me mother again
01:02:10And you
01:02:11You're not off the hook
01:02:13I'll deal with you later
01:02:17Yes, Miss Mother
01:02:23My dear
01:02:24Somebody very special
01:02:25I want to introduce you to
01:02:26Grace
01:02:28This is my son, Alexander
01:02:30It's an honor to meet you, sir
01:02:32Please
01:02:33You're my sister now
01:02:35There's no need for formalities
01:02:37My mother
01:02:37I've arranged a welcome banquet for you
01:02:39At the Cloud Peak Restaurant
01:02:41What better occasion
01:02:44To introduce my daughter
01:02:46To the whole world
01:02:47The future heiress
01:02:49Of the Phoenix Group
01:02:56It's a historical day for the Phoenix Group
01:02:58The city must know
01:03:00Our CEO is back
01:03:02I'll send out the invitations
01:03:11Is that your boyfriend?
01:03:13The one that was studying abroad?
01:03:15Yes
01:03:16He promised me when he came back home
01:03:18That he would propose to me
01:03:21I'm expecting him to pop the question anytime now
01:03:25That's wonderful
01:03:26Take the call
01:03:27But why don't you also invite him
01:03:28To the banquet tonight, okay?
01:03:30Okay
01:03:33Hi
01:03:34Hi
01:03:36Cloud Peak Restaurant
01:03:37Yeah, I can meet you there
01:03:41There's, um, actually
01:03:42Something important
01:03:43I need to tell you
01:04:04I need to tell you
01:04:11Oh my God
01:04:13Alert
01:04:16Who's that beautiful young woman?
01:04:19She must be someone important to be at Phoenix Group's banquet tonight.
01:04:27Nathan!
01:04:35Victoria?
01:04:37Long time no see, bestie.
01:04:44What's going on here?
01:04:46What does it look like?
01:04:49Best friend and I are together now.
01:04:55But you promised me you'd give me a ring when you came back.
01:04:58Oh, he did get a ring.
01:05:01Just not for you, loser.
01:05:05Shocked to see our son engage with someone worthy of him.
01:05:08A proper match.
01:05:10At last.
01:05:12Unlike you and your useless poor mother who can't possibly help him in his career.
01:05:18That's right.
01:05:19My mother's a secretary at Phoenix Group.
01:05:22And she got Nathan the regional manager position at the company.
01:05:25Things change when you have the right connections.
01:05:29Isn't that right, sweetie?
01:05:32So that's why you chose my best friend over me?
01:05:35How could you both do this to me?
01:05:38Shut your mouth.
01:05:42Oh, honey.
01:05:44Save yourself the humiliation and leave.
01:05:47You don't belong here.
01:05:58Everything's set.
01:05:59The city's most powerful leader here to meet Grace.
01:06:16Grace deserves this moment.
01:06:18After tonight, everyone will know that she's the heiress of the Phoenix Group.
01:06:29Wait, what?
01:06:31Someone's causing trouble to my sister.
01:06:35Did you honestly think you could compete with me?
01:06:38You're just the daughter of some poor, crazy woman who can't even walk.
01:06:45And that dress.
01:06:46What'd you do?
01:06:47Steal it?
01:06:49Trash like you could never afford a dress like that.
01:06:51I probably borrowed it to pretend she's not poor.
01:06:55Just like her mother, pretending to be someone she's not.
01:06:58Let me return it to whatever store you stole it from.
01:07:08Mom.
01:07:19Don't worry, sweetheart.
01:07:21Your mother will always protect you now, okay?
01:07:32How dare you throw wine on my future daughter-in-law?
01:07:35How disgusting.
01:07:37This is why poor people like her have no business at events like this.
01:07:41And who might you be?
01:07:42I'm Nathan's father.
01:07:44Bill Carter.
01:07:46And I am his mother, Helen.
01:07:48So your son is the young man that my daughter was interested in?
01:07:54Just as I suspect.
01:07:56He's not worthy of my daughter.
01:07:59Who are you to talk down to my son like that?
01:08:02Our son is the perfect match any girl could hope for.
01:08:06Oh, really?
01:08:18The three heirs of the largest corporation?
01:08:21Only Phoenix Group is above them.
01:08:23What are they doing here?
01:08:28I'm James Bryant from the Sterling International Group.
01:08:31It's an honor to meet you, Grace.
01:08:33Grace, would you be honored to meet me at the dinner bar sometimes?
01:08:37I would love to take a travel with me when you can.
01:08:40My schedule is completely open.
01:08:42I, sweetheart, don't be afraid.
01:08:46You really do deserve someone better.
01:08:50Grace, these are some of the finest young men in the city.
01:08:53And if none of them are to your desire, they're CEOs, they're entrepreneurs, and they're architects eager to meet you.
01:09:01What's going on?
01:09:03Why are all these rich men surrounding trash like you?
01:09:06You pathetic whore!
01:09:08Since when do you know people with real money?
01:09:11You manipulative little slut!
01:09:13Slut!
01:09:14What other secrets are you hiding?
01:09:18You think you're good enough to touch my sister?
01:09:23Did you just say sister?
01:09:27I thought you said she was an orphan.
01:09:30How can she be Alexander's sister?
01:09:35Alexander, surely there's been some sort of mistake.
01:09:38And who exactly do you think you are to question me?
01:09:43Alexander, you must be confused.
01:09:46Grace is nothing but a worthless orphan.
01:09:50It's true.
01:09:51She's nothing but trash.
01:09:55She's garbage!
01:09:56Nothing but garbage!
01:10:04Who?
01:10:06Who are you?
01:10:10Since you're so desperate to find out who my daughter is, you, you'll find out soon enough.
01:10:18And you!
01:10:19You will see exactly what you threw away.
01:10:24Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome the CEO of Phoenix Group, Ms. Miller!
01:10:54She, she, she, she can't be!
01:10:56The CEO of the Phoenix Group.
01:11:06Thank you all for coming this evening.
01:11:09During my absence, I worked the hardest, most low-paying job.
01:11:15I wanted to understand the struggle of the less fortunate.
01:11:19And what I ended up finding was something unexpected.
01:11:23I found a daughter with a heart of gold.
01:11:27Tonight, I'm proud to introduce the future heiress of the Phoenix Group.
01:11:33You worthless bitch.
01:11:35This is all your fault.
01:11:36You made me betray Grace.
01:11:39Grace, don't blame me because you threw away someone important.
01:11:45Grace, please.
01:11:46I never cared about her.
01:11:48I always loved you.
01:11:49Just give me another chance.
01:11:51I'll prove myself worthy.
01:11:55Alexander.
01:12:00Your sister is both kind and wise.
01:12:04You need to trust that she'll do the right thing.
01:12:09Grace, Victoria deceived us all.
01:12:12Our son truly cares for you.
01:12:15Give him one more chance.
01:12:16Yes, Grace.
01:12:17You and Nathan have history.
01:12:19If you become our daughter-in-law, we'll treat you like our own.
01:12:23When you thought my mom and I were nothing, you treated us like dirt.
01:12:29And then you stood by and watched while Nathan betrayed me and humiliated my mother.
01:12:34Grace, I was wrong.
01:12:36I mean, even my parents see you now.
01:12:38Will never, ever happen again.
01:12:41I swear.
01:12:42You're only sorry because of who I am now.
01:12:45Yes, I once had feelings for you.
01:12:48But that's over.
01:12:51I never want to see you again.
01:12:58You think you're above me now.
01:13:01Pay me 100 million dollars or else everyone finds out how you really became the Phoenix Gruberus.
01:13:10By sleeping with your own adoptive brother.
01:13:17How dare you?
01:13:19That's a lie.
01:13:20Truth doesn't matter.
01:13:22My mother is a PR manager at Phoenix Group.
01:13:25She can forge all the proof we need.
01:13:27The press will eat it up.
01:13:28And I'll back every word of it.
01:13:32After all, I am regional manager of Phoenix Group.
01:13:36Just pay us the money.
01:13:37The Phoenix Group has the money.
01:13:39Or watch your reputation crumble.
01:13:42Is your mother's name Sarah Bell?
01:13:45She's the PR manager for Phoenix Group, right?
01:13:48So what old hag?
01:13:51Oh, wow.
01:13:52She clearly didn't know how to teach you manners.
01:13:56So I guess she's fired.
01:14:00What?
01:14:01You can't do that!
01:14:02You and your two families can take your stuff and get out of the city.
01:14:08You're going to have a very hard time finding any work here.
01:14:13Please have mercy on my son.
01:14:16He's a foolish boy.
01:14:18He doesn't know what he's doing.
01:14:21Take them away.
01:14:22I do not want to see them in the city again.
01:14:27I do not want to see them in the city again.
01:14:27Yes, Ms. Miller.
01:14:30Wait.
01:14:32No, no, don't touch me!
01:14:33Breathe!
01:14:33No, wait!
01:14:35Breathe!
01:14:40Sweetheart, don't let his cruelty spoil this evening.
01:14:45This moment, it is yours.
01:14:47They can't hurt me anymore, Mom.
01:14:49Not with you by my side.
01:14:52My sweet daughter.
01:14:55You stuck by me when I was sick.
01:14:58And I almost died.
01:14:59And you never gave up on me.
01:15:02And you gave me hope and strength.
01:15:05You gave me so much more.
01:15:08You gave me love when I thought I would never know what that would feel like.
01:15:11And you rescued me and you gave me a family.
01:15:18Tonight, I want everyone to see who you really are.
01:15:23You're kind, compassionate, brilliant, unbreakable.
01:15:29And I mean no one will ever speak down to you again.
01:15:33I don't need the world's approval, Mom.
01:15:35I have everything I could ever want right here.
01:15:39My sweet daughter.
01:15:44Ladies and gentlemen, I have a very important announcement to make.
01:15:51Not only will my mother be coming back,
01:15:53as the CEO, I'm proud to announce as well,
01:15:57that my sister, Grace,
01:16:00will be joining our team at the Phoenix Group
01:16:02as the youngest, billionaire, heirs.
01:16:20Grace to the Miller family.
