The Hidden King- Daddy Is a Legend
Transcript
00:00:04There! Off to her!
00:00:30Boss, it's been six months. You finally picked up the phone.
00:00:33Asshole! Next time you interrupt me while I'm picking up fares, I'm throwing you straight into the Pacific for shark
00:00:38food.
00:00:39Picking up fares? Boss, you're the legendary head of the Celestial Order! I can't believe you're a gigolo now!
00:00:45Say one more word and I'll kill you in the Golden Delta!
00:00:48Oh yeah, okay, I'll shut up, okay? Seriously boss, you ditched your throne just to come back here and drive
00:00:53taxis and work construction sites?
00:00:55Nobody does normal life like this!
00:00:57Enough talking. Any updates on my mother?
00:01:00After years of digging overseas, we're pretty sure your mother's death was tied to the Crimson Pact.
00:01:04Crimson Pact. Keep digging.
00:01:22Driver, if you can lose them, I'll pay you whatever you want.
00:01:26Hang on.
00:01:30Don't let her get away! After them!
00:01:34Driver, please, can't you go faster?
00:01:36Miss, there's a speed limit. This is as fast as I can go.
00:01:44I'll transfer you 1-500. Scan my code. Payment received 1-500.
00:01:48Buckle up.
00:02:29We lost them. You can get out now.
00:02:33I'm so hot. It burns.
00:02:39Miss?
00:02:41Were you given something to drink?
00:02:59I'm so hot.
00:03:18Ms. Sterling, we're here.
00:03:20Sweetheart, come with Mommy.
00:03:21Okay.
00:03:30Mommy, is Daddy really here?
00:03:33He's not getting away again, right?
00:03:35Don't worry, boss.
00:03:36After all the times he slipped away before we finally figured out how to corner him,
00:03:40there's no way he escapes this time.
00:03:42So what's his fake job now?
00:03:44He's selling pork this time.
00:03:46A butcher?
00:03:47You seriously thought hiding here would keep me from finding you?
00:03:51Please, a man like you stands out anywhere.
00:03:53You're like a neon sign in the middle of the night.
00:03:56So distinct, so outstanding.
00:03:58Those seductive eyes, that scruffy beard, the way you handle a knife,
00:04:01and even that stupid cup of dessert drink, totally unforgettable.
00:04:06Despite your humble background, every trade has its rules.
00:04:09Regardless, you have to pay the monthly rent for this stall.
00:04:13You think this stall is free?
00:04:15I thought our friendship was worth more than that.
00:04:17Guess everything still comes down to money in the end.
00:04:21Even friends have to pay.
00:04:23Understood. Everyone's going vegan lately.
00:04:25Business is slow.
00:04:27Tell you what.
00:04:28This piece of pork belly.
00:04:30Let's call it today's rent.
00:04:41If you don't pay up today, you're done selling pork here.
00:04:46Daddy, Ivy, finally found you.
00:04:49Daddy, you said you were single.
00:04:52Kid, you've got the wrong guy.
00:04:54I'm not your daddy.
00:04:55Ivy didn't get it wrong.
00:04:57Mommy said you are my daddy.
00:05:00Kid, it's not good to tell lies.
00:05:02Ivy's not lying.
00:05:04You are her father.
00:05:06You, you, you're Bianca Sterling, the CEO of Evercrest Group?
00:05:09Wait, Evercrest Group.
00:05:10That company's worth billions.
00:05:12Why would she be here?
00:05:13It's you.
00:05:15You jerk.
00:05:16You slept with me and disappeared without a trace.
00:05:18I searched for you for four years straight.
00:05:21And now I finally found you.
00:05:22Daddy, everyone says I don't have a daddy.
00:05:25Don't you want Ivy anymore?
00:05:27She's really my kid?
00:05:29Here, the DNA test.
00:05:36She really is yours.
00:05:40Then why didn't you come find me earlier?
00:05:43Find you?
00:05:43You were impossible to track down.
00:05:45You spent years hopping between driving cabs and working random construction jobs.
00:05:50And now you're a butcher?
00:05:51How was I supposed to track you down?
00:05:54So all these years, she was the one investigating me.
00:05:57I thought it was those bastards abroad.
00:05:59I really didn't expect that one night would lead to this.
00:06:02How many more nights did you want?
00:06:06This woman is fierce.
00:06:08If you're any kind of man, you'll come and marry me.
00:06:11What?
00:06:11What's that supposed to mean?
00:06:13You sound like marrying me is some kind of punishment.
00:06:16Daddy, Ivy doesn't want to grow up without a daddy.
00:06:18That's not what I meant.
00:06:19I'm just not mentally prepared yet.
00:06:24Then come get the license with me.
00:06:43Ivy has a daddy now.
00:06:44Ivy has a daddy now.
00:06:46Daddy finally has a daughter too.
00:06:49Daddy, you're so handsome.
00:06:51Ivy loves daddy the most.
00:06:52Now that Ivy's got her dad around, I can finally focus on fixing the company mess.
00:07:05I've got an emergency to deal with right now.
00:07:08I'll call you later.
00:07:09But listen carefully if you disappear on me again.
00:07:12I swear you won't be a man anymore.
00:07:14Got it.
00:07:18Daddy, can you save your number for me?
00:07:20So whenever I miss you, I can call you anytime.
00:07:23Of course I can.
00:07:28Bye-bye, daddy.
00:07:41Greetings, boss.
00:07:42Boss, your location has been compromised.
00:07:45I need you to investigate someone.
00:07:46Her name is Bianca Sterling.
00:07:48Bianca Sterling, boss, what's your relationship with her?
00:07:51I want you to find out if her daughter is biologically related to me.
00:07:55What?
00:07:55Boss, you have a daughter?
00:07:57But that can't be right.
00:07:58The Drake family has had only one son for nine generations.
00:08:02Conceiving isn't that easy.
00:08:03Yeah, boss.
00:08:04Are you sure you aren't being scammed?
00:08:06That's exactly why I'm having you investigate.
00:08:08Say one more word and see what happens.
00:08:10Fine, fine.
00:08:11I'll shut up.
00:08:21You unwanted little bastard.
00:08:23I'll meet you to death.
00:08:25Kill him, kill him, kill him, kill him.
00:08:29I'm not a bastard.
00:08:30I have a mommy and a daddy.
00:08:32If you really are my daughter,
00:08:34I will give you all the love in the world.
00:08:37Boss, your parents look furious.
00:08:39I'm afraid.
00:08:47What are you all doing here?
00:08:50What do you want?
00:08:51Bianca Sterling,
00:08:52ever since you slept with that wild man
00:08:54and gave birth to this jinx,
00:08:55our family has faced nothing but bad luck.
00:08:57At this rate, the Sterling family is going to go bankrupt.
00:08:59Let go of my mommy.
00:09:01Dad, the company's problems have nothing to do with Ivy.
00:09:04She's just a little girl.
00:09:05Oh, please, you're still defending yourself.
00:09:08Ever since you had that bastard
00:09:10and ruined the Cole family alliance,
00:09:12the Coles' suppression of our family
00:09:14has never stopped.
00:09:15If it weren't for that brat,
00:09:17would our family be this screwed right now?
00:09:19Chloe Sterling, watch your filthy mouth.
00:09:22My daughter has a mom and a dad.
00:09:24She is not a bastard.
00:09:25Mom, dad, do you see that?
00:09:27I barely said anything
00:09:28and she already snapped at me.
00:09:30Bianca Sterling,
00:09:31watch how you talk to your sister.
00:09:33You got knocked up before marriage.
00:09:35Have that kid
00:09:36and destroy this family's future.
00:09:38That child's brought nothing
00:09:39but bad luck to this house.
00:09:42Master, this is the child my daughter bore,
00:09:44the jinx.
00:09:45Whether the Sterling family
00:09:46can turn things around
00:09:47and prosper again
00:09:48all depends on you.
00:09:54Indeed.
00:09:55This girl is truly the reincarnation of a jinx.
00:09:58With her around,
00:09:58you'll never see success in this lifetime.
00:10:03This blessed water was obtained from the temple.
00:10:06Once Ms. Sterling drinks it,
00:10:08tie this spirit mirror to the jinx.
00:10:10Confine her for 49 days
00:10:11and the curse will be lifted.
00:10:13Dad, she's your own granddaughter.
00:10:14You can't do this to her.
00:10:17This bastard doesn't even know
00:10:18who her father is.
00:10:19She doesn't deserve to be my granddaughter.
00:10:23Ivy isn't a bastard.
00:10:25Ivy has a daddy.
00:10:28Don't cry, Ivy.
00:10:30Ivy is not a bastard.
00:10:31You're mommy's most beloved daughter.
00:10:33A daddy?
00:10:34If you had a father all these years,
00:10:36why hasn't he come looking for you?
00:10:38Bianca Sterling,
00:10:39you birthed this bastard.
00:10:41Do you know what people are saying about you?
00:10:43They say you're a loose woman,
00:10:45sleeping around with men,
00:10:46having a bastard child.
00:10:47You don't even know
00:10:49who the father of this brat is.
00:10:51Bianca,
00:10:51it's one thing to be shameless,
00:10:53but why drag the whole family down?
00:10:56Chloe Sterling,
00:10:57I'm warning you.
00:10:58You can insult me all you want,
00:11:00but stay away from my daughter.
00:11:02Mom, Dad,
00:11:03seriously,
00:11:04look at her attitude.
00:11:11Hurry up and apologize to your sister
00:11:13before I lose my temper.
00:11:16She's not my sister.
00:11:18She's just some homewrecker's daughter.
00:11:20Honey,
00:11:21did you hear that?
00:11:22Your daughter doesn't even treat us like family.
00:11:24At this rate,
00:11:25this family's gonna tear itself apart
00:11:27sooner or later.
00:11:29Bianca Sterling,
00:11:30I'll let the disrespect slide,
00:11:31but you're drinking this blessed water
00:11:33whether you like it or not.
00:11:35I'm not touching it.
00:11:36That guy's a fraud.
00:11:42You little bitch,
00:11:43how dare you insult the master?
00:11:45I should beat you senseless for this.
00:11:47Grandpa,
00:11:48please don't hit mommy.
00:11:50Please don't hit my mommy.
00:11:54I'm sorry.
00:11:55I'll be good.
00:11:58Master Sterling,
00:11:59Bianca is possessed by an evil spirit.
00:12:02We must resort to
00:12:03forceful measures.
00:12:04If we delay any longer,
00:12:06the Sterling family will be ruined.
00:12:08You're right, Master.
00:12:09I can't be soft-hearted anymore.
00:12:12May the heavens have mercy.
00:12:14Dad,
00:12:15let me do it.
00:12:20What are you doing?
00:12:21Get away!
00:12:22What do you think?
00:12:23I'm exercising you.
00:12:29Mommy,
00:12:30let go of my mommy!
00:12:32Get lost,
00:12:33you jinx!
00:12:43You dare push me?
00:12:45You're asking for it!
00:12:49Ivy,
00:12:50Ivy!
00:12:52Tie the spirit mirror
00:12:53to this bastard.
00:12:54Lock her up
00:12:55for 49 days.
00:13:02What are you doing?
00:13:03My daughter's having
00:13:04an asthma attack!
00:13:05She'll die
00:13:06if you don't let her go!
00:13:07She's better off dead.
00:13:19Mommy!
00:13:27Mommy!
00:13:30No!
00:13:35Boss,
00:13:36the paternity test
00:13:37has confirmed Ivy Sterling
00:13:38is your biological daughter.
00:13:40Guess that makes you a father now.
00:13:41She's really mine?
00:13:42A hundred percent.
00:13:43But her and her mom
00:13:44have had it rough
00:13:45these past few years.
00:13:46Rough how?
00:13:47According to my investigation,
00:13:49Bianca Sterling
00:13:49is the legitimate daughter
00:13:50of the Sterlings
00:13:51in Northport.
00:13:52She was engaged
00:13:52to the Cole family.
00:13:53But four years ago,
00:13:54she had a baby
00:13:55before the wedding.
00:13:56The Coles took it personally
00:13:57and started crushing
00:13:58the Cole family.
00:13:59They're basically
00:13:59falling apart now.
00:14:00And little Ivy's been blamed
00:14:01for everything
00:14:02since the day she was born.
00:14:03She's endured endless
00:14:04insults and contempt.
00:14:05Life for them
00:14:06in the Sterling family
00:14:07has been a constant struggle.
00:14:09I see.
00:14:11Raising our daughter
00:14:12alone all this time,
00:14:13that couldn't have been
00:14:14easy for you.
00:14:15But now I'm here.
00:14:17Nobody's laying a finger
00:14:18on our kid ever again.
00:14:28Daddy, save me.
00:14:30Mommy, please save me.
00:14:32Ivy, what's happening?
00:14:33Ivy!
00:14:34Ivy!
00:14:36I don't care what it takes
00:14:38to extract that call
00:14:39right now.
00:14:40Dad, please let Ivy out.
00:14:42She's really in danger.
00:14:44Bianca Sterling,
00:14:45you were acting
00:14:46so high and mighty earlier.
00:14:47Now look at you,
00:14:48on your knees begging.
00:14:49What do you think begging
00:14:51will help you now?
00:14:51If you had just listened
00:14:53to me back then
00:14:53and aborted that little bastard,
00:14:55none of this
00:14:55would have ever happened.
00:14:57Dad, I was wrong.
00:14:58I apologize.
00:14:59Please just give Ivy
00:15:00back to me.
00:15:01Let me ask you first.
00:15:02In the Sterling family,
00:15:04for defying your elders,
00:15:05what is your punishment?
00:15:06Ten strokes of the cane.
00:15:08Good.
00:15:09At least you know your place.
00:15:11Straighten your back.
00:15:15Please, father,
00:15:16carry out the punishment.
00:15:29Stop.
00:15:33Give me my daughter back.
00:15:36Even now,
00:15:37you still can't let go
00:15:38of that little bastard, huh?
00:15:39Dad,
00:15:40she obviously doesn't think
00:15:41she did anything wrong.
00:15:42Chloe is right.
00:15:44As long as she keeps
00:15:45protecting that brat,
00:15:46she'll never do
00:15:47what the master asked
00:15:48and help cleanse the family.
00:15:53You...
00:15:53You've beaten me enough.
00:15:55Humiliated me enough.
00:15:56What the hell else
00:15:57do you want from me?
00:15:58I'm telling you,
00:15:59if anything happens
00:16:00to my daughter,
00:16:01I swear I'll take
00:16:02every last one of you
00:16:03down with me.
00:16:04You're threatening me now?
00:16:05Fine.
00:16:06You want me to let
00:16:07this bastard go?
00:16:08Just throw the brat away
00:16:10and I'll set her
00:16:11free.
00:16:14In your dreams!
00:16:24Ivy, can you hear mommy?
00:16:26Mommy is here to save you!
00:16:28Can you hear me?
00:16:29Mommy is here to save you!
00:16:36Mommy, daddy, help me.
00:16:43Give me the key!
00:16:45I said give me the key!
00:16:47Dad,
00:16:48Bianca's gone crazy!
00:16:49Help me, hurry!
00:16:58Stop!
00:17:06Vincent!
00:17:08Who are you?
00:17:09Honey, where's Ivy?
00:17:11Ivy's having an asthma attack!
00:17:13They've locked her up!
00:17:18Wait, what did you call her?
00:17:19So you're the guy
00:17:20Bianca's been sneaking around with?
00:17:22Dad, she's bold enough
00:17:24to bring her side piece
00:17:25straight home now!
00:17:27She seriously doesn't
00:17:28respect you anymore!
00:17:30Bianca!
00:17:30Tell me, who is he?
00:17:32He's Ivy's father.
00:17:33You ungrateful brat!
00:17:35You even brought
00:17:35this thug home!
00:17:36I'll beat you to death today!
00:17:38I'll act as if
00:17:39I never had a daughter!
00:17:40Let her go!
00:17:50Where is Ivy locked up?
00:17:51Chloe has the key!
00:17:56Hand over the key!
00:17:57I'll never give it to you!
00:18:03No!
00:18:07Mommy, Daddy, help me!
00:18:10Ivy, hang in there, okay?
00:18:11We're coming to get you out
00:18:12right now!
00:18:13Too bad the key's gone!
00:18:14The little jinx is done for!
00:18:21Oh, please!
00:18:23Don't tell me you think
00:18:23you can break the door
00:18:24down yourself!
00:18:30How is this possible?
00:18:31What?
00:18:34Ivy!
00:18:35Ivy!
00:18:36Daddy!
00:18:37Mommy!
00:18:38Give the child to me!
00:18:50What do you think
00:18:51you're doing?
00:18:52Do you have any idea
00:18:53who we are?
00:18:55If you touch us,
00:18:56I'll make you...
00:19:01You hit my daughter!
00:19:02I'm going to kill you!
00:19:06That slut brought a man
00:19:08into our house
00:19:08to make a scene!
00:19:09You've got to stand up
00:19:10for us!
00:19:12Bianca Sterling,
00:19:13what the hell
00:19:13are you trying to pull?
00:19:14I told you,
00:19:15Ivy isn't a bastard!
00:19:16She's not a jinx!
00:19:17She has parents!
00:19:18She is my daughter!
00:19:20Oh, wow!
00:19:21Look who finally
00:19:22grew a backbone,
00:19:23Bianca Sterling!
00:19:24Listen carefully!
00:19:25Cross me again
00:19:26and you'll regret it!
00:19:27Then hear this
00:19:28from me too!
00:19:29If you ever touch
00:19:29my wife or kid again,
00:19:30I'll kill you,
00:19:31you old bastard!
00:19:34We're leaving!
00:19:39Sorry I didn't
00:19:40get here sooner.
00:19:41You two alright?
00:19:42We're fine.
00:19:43But how did you
00:19:45know to come here?
00:19:45I called Daddy
00:19:46and asked him to come!
00:19:48I saved Ivy's number
00:19:49before.
00:19:49When I heard
00:19:50you were in danger,
00:19:51I rushed here immediately.
00:19:53Yay, Daddy!
00:19:53Daddy, you were
00:19:54so cool just now!
00:19:55Right, Mommy?
00:19:59He's not as bad
00:19:59as I thought he'd be.
00:20:01And Ivy seems
00:20:02to really like him.
00:20:03Daddy, give me a hug!
00:20:05How are you so strong?
00:20:08Learned at
00:20:08working construction.
00:20:10You've really had
00:20:10a rough time
00:20:11these past few years.
00:20:13Oh, now you care?
00:20:14If you hadn't vanished
00:20:15after sleeping with me
00:20:16back then,
00:20:16would my life be this hard?
00:20:18This woman,
00:20:19why is she snapping
00:20:20all of a sudden?
00:20:21Bianca, listen to me.
00:20:22We're married now.
00:20:23I will definitely
00:20:24protect you and Ivy.
00:20:25I swear today
00:20:26won't happen again.
00:20:26I'm not asking
00:20:27much from you.
00:20:28Just be a good father
00:20:29to our daughter.
00:20:30Stay out of my business.
00:20:31You can't help anyway.
00:20:34And how are you
00:20:35so sure about that?
00:20:36You sell pork
00:20:37for a living.
00:20:38What can you do
00:20:39for me?
00:20:39So what if I sell pork?
00:20:41Is that a reason
00:20:42to look down on me?
00:20:43Exactly, Mommy!
00:20:44How could you say
00:20:45that about Daddy?
00:20:46In my eyes,
00:20:47he's the coolest dad ever.
00:20:48He'll definitely
00:20:49protect us.
00:20:50Ivy,
00:20:50why are you
00:20:51taking his side?
00:20:52I'm the one
00:20:52who raised you.
00:20:53Instead of helping me,
00:20:54you're siding
00:20:55with this jerk!
00:20:55I love Daddy the most.
00:21:02You're hurt.
00:21:03Let's just go home.
00:21:08I'm okay.
00:21:09I can handle it
00:21:10upstairs myself.
00:21:11Just stay down here
00:21:12with Ivy.
00:21:14Daddy,
00:21:15now that you're here,
00:21:16nobody's gonna bully
00:21:17Mommy and me anymore,
00:21:19right?
00:21:19Not while I'm around.
00:21:21Nobody's touching
00:21:22my girls ever again.
00:21:23Daddy,
00:21:24you're the best.
00:21:25So you're super strong,
00:21:27huh?
00:21:27Obviously,
00:21:28your daddy's the toughest
00:21:28man in the whole world.
00:21:30Really?
00:21:31Stronger than Superman?
00:21:32Way stronger than Superman.
00:21:41Let me help you.
00:21:43What are you doing?
00:21:45Who said you could
00:21:45come in here?
00:21:46Don't get the wrong idea.
00:21:48I'm just here to help.
00:21:49I don't need it.
00:21:50Get out!
00:21:51I'm warning you.
00:21:52If you dare peek,
00:21:53I'll gouge your eyes out.
00:21:54Is there a part of you
00:21:55I haven't seen already?
00:21:58You're shameless.
00:21:59All right.
00:22:00Enough joking around.
00:22:01There's no way
00:22:02you can treat your back alone.
00:22:04Lie down.
00:22:04I'll do it.
00:22:05I said I'm fine.
00:22:07Lie down.
00:22:15If your hands start wandering,
00:22:17you're dead.
00:22:18Trust me.
00:22:18I'm a gentleman.
00:22:19I's where they belong.
00:22:20How did I never realize
00:22:21she had a body like this?
00:22:23Why are you frozen?
00:22:25Put the medicine on.
00:22:33You've had it rough
00:22:34all these years.
00:22:35Quit talking nonsense
00:22:36and hurry up
00:22:37with the medicine.
00:22:41Easy now.
00:22:42Okay, I'll be gentle.
00:22:47The medicine is all applied.
00:22:57Are you still staring?
00:23:07You jerk!
00:23:08Unbutton this now!
00:23:09You're the one on top of me.
00:23:11How can I move?
00:23:12You...
00:23:15What is this?
00:23:16Why is it so stiff?
00:23:17Lady, you're touching
00:23:18the wrong spot.
00:23:19You creep!
00:23:21Daddy, Mommy,
00:23:22what's going on?
00:23:28Ivy, Mommy was just...
00:23:31Oh, shame on you!
00:23:38Well, if there's nothing else,
00:23:40I'll head out.
00:23:43Not so fast.
00:23:44We need to talk.
00:23:46About what?
00:23:47I married you strictly
00:23:48for Ivy.
00:23:49She's grown up
00:23:49without a father's love.
00:23:51Now that you're in the picture,
00:23:52I expect you to fulfill
00:23:53your duties as a father.
00:23:55Ivy is my daughter.
00:23:56You don't need to say that.
00:23:58I know what I have to do.
00:24:01Fine.
00:24:01As long as you know,
00:24:02you can go now.
00:24:09Why are you still here?
00:24:17Actually, I need to change too.
00:24:19Want to join me?
00:24:20Get out!
00:24:30Daddy, you said you're stronger
00:24:32than Superman.
00:24:33Do you know martial arts?
00:24:35Of course I do.
00:24:39Teach me, Daddy!
00:24:40Teach me, Daddy!
00:24:41Ha ha!
00:24:42All right!
00:24:42Then I'll teach my sweet girl
00:24:44the Phantom Blade.
00:24:48Yay!
00:24:48Yay!
00:25:07Wow, Daddy!
00:25:08You're so cool!
00:25:09Daddy, you're amazing!
00:25:15Who told you to play
00:25:16with daggers
00:25:17in front of our daughter?
00:25:19Mommy, don't be mean to Daddy.
00:25:21I asked him
00:25:22to teach me martial arts.
00:25:25As if he actually
00:25:26knows martial arts.
00:25:27I'm warning you.
00:25:28If you ever talk nonsense
00:25:29in front of her again,
00:25:30I won't let you off easy.
00:25:32Ivy, come on.
00:25:33Mommy's taking you to bed.
00:25:41Good night, Daddy.
00:25:54Shade, if you call me
00:25:55this late again
00:25:56and wake up my precious daughter,
00:25:57I will skin you alive.
00:25:59Boss, you've changed.
00:26:00Didn't you used to say
00:26:01that you hated kids?
00:26:03Now it's darling daughter this
00:26:04and darling daughter that.
00:26:07Bullshit!
00:26:08When did I ever say
00:26:08I hated kids?
00:26:09I never said that.
00:26:10Enough nonsense!
00:26:11Get to the point!
00:26:12Why are you calling me?
00:26:13Boss, I just got some news.
00:26:15Your billionaire father
00:26:16and Elena
00:26:16are coming to Rivermore.
00:26:18They'll be here tomorrow
00:26:19and it seems they found out
00:26:21that you have a child.
00:26:24Who told him?
00:26:25Uh, boss?
00:26:26What are you saying?
00:26:27The signal is bad here.
00:26:29I'm hanging up now.
00:26:38Mr. Drake,
00:26:39would you join us for dinner?
00:26:40Mr. Drake,
00:26:41Mr. Drake,
00:26:41what are your plans
00:26:41for the future?
00:26:43Dad,
00:26:44is your source reliable?
00:26:45Does Vincent really have a daughter?
00:26:47Am I really an aunt now?
00:26:48The news is absolutely certain.
00:26:52But Dad,
00:26:53you and Vincent
00:26:53have been at odds for years.
00:26:55We're coming to Rivermore
00:26:56to reunite.
00:26:57Will he even agree to see us?
00:27:01That brat has been fighting me for years.
00:27:03He won't come to see me on his own.
00:27:05Spread the word.
00:27:06I, Victor Drake,
00:27:07will be in Rivermore
00:27:08hosting a charity gala
00:27:09for my granddaughter.
00:27:10Invite all the elites of Rivermore.
00:27:12I don't believe for a second
00:27:13that that brat
00:27:14could bear to keep
00:27:15my granddaughter from me.
00:27:18That's a brilliant move, Dad.
00:27:23I never thought the day would come
00:27:25that that useless brat
00:27:26Vincent would actually give me
00:27:28such a cute little granddaughter.
00:27:30Ha ha.
00:27:38Here you go, sweetie.
00:27:40Try the breakfast
00:27:41Daddy made for you.
00:27:48Wow!
00:27:49Daddy's noodles are so yummy!
00:27:53Compared to the noodles I make,
00:27:55these are better.
00:27:56Daddy's are a little better.
00:28:07How does it taste?
00:28:10It's just okay, I guess.
00:28:14Breaking news.
00:28:15The nation's wealthiest man,
00:28:17Victor Drake.
00:28:18Mr. Drake has arrived in Rivermore.
00:28:20Today he will host a charity gala
00:28:22for his granddaughter.
00:28:23Also, prominent figures
00:28:24from Rivermore have been invited.
00:28:36Daddy, that grandpa looks just like you.
00:28:38Could he be my grandpa?
00:28:42Ivy, you're mistaken.
00:28:44That man is Victor Drake.
00:28:46He is an incredibly,
00:28:47incredibly wealthy man.
00:28:51Your daddy is just an ordinary guy.
00:28:53He has absolutely nothing to do
00:28:55with someone like that.
00:28:58If you were really that powerful,
00:29:00with a grandfather like that,
00:29:02no one would dare bully us.
00:29:04But he looks just like daddy.
00:29:07Ivy!
00:29:09How does that old man look like me?
00:29:11I'm clearly way more handsome.
00:29:13You're just a butcher.
00:29:14Don't compare yourself
00:29:15to the richest man.
00:29:23In a bit,
00:29:24I'm going to Mr. Drake's banquet.
00:29:25You stay home and watch Ivy.
00:29:27Call me if anything happens.
00:29:33What is that old man up to?
00:29:38Boss, bad news.
00:29:39Your father just called
00:29:40and gave us a warning.
00:29:41What did he say?
00:29:42He said if he doesn't see
00:29:44his granddaughter at the charity gala,
00:29:45he will completely crush
00:29:47all our domestic forces in Astera.
00:29:49He also set his status
00:29:51as Astera's richest man
00:29:52while not as high
00:29:53as the Celestial Order's boss.
00:29:55If it comes to a fight,
00:29:57he'll make your life a living hell.
00:30:15My sweet girl,
00:30:17how about daddy takes you
00:30:18to see grandpa?
00:30:19Yay!
00:30:19Yes, please!
00:30:27Daddy, is grandpa really in here?
00:30:30That old man should be in here.
00:30:36Daddy!
00:30:37Daddy!
00:30:38Daddy!
00:30:39Daddy!
00:30:53What the hell are you doing?
00:30:55Are you blind?
00:30:56Watch where you're driving!
00:30:57You pathetic loser!
00:30:58Don't you have eyes?
00:30:59You ruined my brand new Land Rover!
00:31:01What's with the attitude?
00:31:02Do you realize you almost hit someone?
00:31:04So what, you pathetic loser?
00:31:06Look at yourself.
00:31:07Know your place!
00:31:09I could kill you both
00:31:10and still afford the payout.
00:31:12Can you please be reasonable?
00:31:13Reasonable?
00:31:14The hell with that?
00:31:15Do you know how much
00:31:16my Land Rover is worth?
00:31:17You've dirtied my car!
00:31:18Look it clean right now!
00:31:21Don't touch my daddy!
00:31:22Get the hell away from me!
00:31:24Ah!
00:31:31You're asking for it!
00:31:33What?
00:31:34You think you can actually hit me?
00:31:40Miss Carter, what happened?
00:31:42What do you mean?
00:31:42What happened?
00:31:43Are you blind?
00:31:44This loser scratched my car
00:31:46and now he's trying to get violent!
00:31:47If you don't handle this
00:31:49to my satisfaction,
00:31:50you'll all be out of a job!
00:31:52Hey!
00:31:52You dare provoke Miss Carter?
00:31:54You've got a death wish!
00:31:58Daddy!
00:31:59I'm scared!
00:32:09Stop right there!
00:32:12It's Miss Sterling
00:32:13from Evercrest Group!
00:32:21Miss Sterling, what brings you here?
00:32:24I'm Carter, your business partner!
00:32:25This scumbag loser barged in here!
00:32:28I was just teaching him a lesson!
00:32:30Ivy, what's wrong?
00:32:32Mommy!
00:32:32This mean woman
00:32:33was bullying me and daddy!
00:32:36Mommy!
00:32:38What?
00:32:39This woman hit Ivy!
00:32:48Miss Sterling, let me explain!
00:32:50I didn't know they were with you!
00:32:53I...
00:32:54Miss Sterling, I...
00:32:55I'll say it one more time!
00:32:58Apologize to them!
00:32:59I'm sorry, it's all my fault!
00:33:03Get out!
00:33:11What are you doing here?
00:33:13Didn't I tell you to stay home
00:33:14and look after Ivy?
00:33:15Daddy brought me here
00:33:16to find Grandpa!
00:33:17Grandpa?
00:33:18Ivy's grandfather is here?
00:33:20Honey, my old man
00:33:21told me to bring Ivy to see him,
00:33:23so I just...
00:33:24What did you say?
00:33:25You're saying Ivy's grandfather
00:33:26is at the Crown Hotel?
00:33:27Well, do you have any idea
00:33:29that the Crown Hotel
00:33:30is booked out today?
00:33:32I know!
00:33:34Then do you know
00:33:35the person who booked it
00:33:36is Victor Drake,
00:33:38the richest man in Estera?
00:33:39Are you trying to say
00:33:40that Ivy's grandfather
00:33:42is Victor Drake?
00:33:44Actually...
00:33:45Enough!
00:33:45You can lie to Ivy all you want,
00:33:47but don't try to fool me!
00:33:48Shh!
00:33:49If your father were the richest man,
00:33:51would you still be selling pork

00:37:12Look at what he's wearing!
00:37:13Isn't this Bianca Sterling

00:37:16I heard she had a child
00:37:17out of wedlock
00:37:17four years ago.
00:37:18She gave birth
00:37:19to a daughter
00:37:20who's a total jinx.
00:37:21The girl even cursed
00:37:22Evercrest Group

00:37:26Bianca,
00:37:26you really have
00:37:27no standards,

00:37:28How could you bring yourself
00:37:29to touch a man like this?
00:37:31Vanessa,

00:37:33about Miss Sterling?
00:37:34Miss Sterling
00:37:35is the most beautiful woman
00:37:36in Rivermore after all.
00:37:38I'm sure her skills
00:37:39in bed are quite impressive.
00:37:41You...
00:37:43You mean lady!
00:37:44Don't you dare

00:38:07The charity gala
00:38:08is all set.
00:38:09Everyone is waiting
00:38:10for you.
00:38:14Elena,
00:38:15is that brat
00:38:15of a brother
00:38:16of yours here?
00:38:19I received word
00:38:20that Vincent
00:38:21should be here.
00:38:22And what about
00:38:23my precious granddaughter?
00:38:25She should be here too.
00:38:27Quick,
00:38:27take me to her.
00:38:29Dad,
00:38:29don't be in such a rush.
00:38:31Because of what
00:38:31happened back then,
00:38:33Vincent still has issues
00:38:34with you.
00:38:35You know that.
00:38:36If you go down there
00:38:37just like this,
00:38:38there's a good chance
00:38:39you two will end up
00:38:40in a fight.
00:38:41With so many people around,
00:38:42it's better not
00:38:43to make a scene.
00:38:44So what are you suggesting?
00:38:45I'll go down
00:38:46and greet him first.
00:38:47Then bring his daughter up.
00:38:48You can see her
00:38:49in private first.
00:38:50Fine.
00:38:51I'm only here
00:38:52for my granddaughter anyway.
00:38:53I don't care
00:38:54if I see that brat
00:38:55or not.
00:38:55Dad,
00:38:56just get ready
00:38:56to hold your granddaughter.
00:39:04Vincent,
00:39:04are you coming
00:39:05or not?
00:39:11Ivy,
00:39:11don't cry.
00:39:12These bad guys
00:39:13can't hurt us.
00:39:14Bianca,
00:39:15if you believe in me,
00:39:16I will handle
00:39:16everything for you.
00:39:19Take him away.
00:39:26I'll say it
00:39:26one more time.
00:39:28You have no right
00:39:29to kick me out.
00:39:30Vincent,
00:39:31you...
00:39:31If I want to leave,
00:39:32no one can stop me.
00:39:33And if I don't want to go,
00:39:35no one on earth
00:39:35can make me.
00:39:36Before my daughter
00:39:37sees her grandfather,
00:39:38we're not going anywhere.
00:39:39Vincent,
00:39:40stop this nonsense.
00:39:41I'm begging you.
00:39:42Just take Ivy
00:39:42and leave.
00:39:43Vanessa,
00:39:44look at his attitude.
00:39:45To someone
00:39:45who didn't know better,
00:39:47they'd think Mr. Drake
00:39:48was this little Jinx's
00:39:49grandfather.
00:39:51Bianca Sterling,
00:39:52this loser you found
00:39:53is really something.
00:39:54He actually dares
00:39:55to claim a connection
00:39:56to Mr. Drake?
00:39:57You really have
00:39:58a death wish,
00:39:59don't you?
00:40:00Vincent,
00:40:01can you please
00:40:01stop talking nonsense?
00:40:03If you keep this up,
00:40:04no one will be able
00:40:05to save you.
00:40:06Manager Lewis,
00:40:07stop wasting time.
00:40:09Do it now.
00:40:11We can do this
00:40:12the easy way
00:40:13or the hard way.
00:40:14I'm going to kill
00:40:15you right now.
00:40:16Everyone,
00:40:17stop right now.
00:40:20Miss Drake,
00:40:21what are you doing here?
00:40:24Who is that woman?
00:40:25Why is Manager Lewis
00:40:26being so respectful?
00:40:29Keep your voice down.
00:40:30That's Elena Drake.
00:40:31She's the daughter
00:40:32of Victor Drake
00:40:33and the heiress
00:40:34to Drake Holdings.
00:40:35What's happening here?
00:40:36Someone is causing
00:40:37trouble at the banquet.
00:40:39I was just about
00:40:40to teach him a lesson.
00:40:42Trouble.
00:40:43Miss Drake,
00:40:44Bianca Sterling
00:40:45brought a lowlife
00:40:46here and to cause
00:40:47a scene.
00:40:48He even laid
00:40:49a hand on me.
00:40:50Please,
00:40:51you must give me justice.
00:40:55Miss Drake,
00:40:56my husband didn't
00:40:57mean any harm.
00:40:58If he offended you,
00:40:59I'm willing
00:41:00to apologize.
00:41:01Pretty lady,
00:41:02my daddy didn't
00:41:03do anything wrong.
00:41:04That mean woman
00:41:04was bullying mommy.
00:41:06My daddy did it
00:41:07to protect mommy.
00:41:08Is this Vincent's daughter?
00:41:10She's so precious.
00:41:11Miss Drake,
00:41:12don't let this
00:41:13little bastard fool you.
00:41:14This little brat
00:41:15is nothing but a jinx.
00:41:16She's bad luck
00:41:17for anyone around her.
00:41:18Everyone in Rivermore
00:41:19knows that Bianca Sterling
00:41:21had a bastard child
00:41:22with some random man.
00:41:24Miss Drake,

00:41:25such a jinx
00:41:26to this gala
00:41:27shows she's up
00:41:28to no good.
00:41:29I suggest
00:41:30you kick their
00:41:31whole family out.
00:41:33Who are you calling a jinx?
00:41:34That little bastard
00:41:35right there!
00:41:38Miss Drake,
00:41:39why did you hit me?
00:41:40Such a lovely
00:41:41little girl.
00:41:42And you dare
00:41:42call her a jinx?
00:41:44Sweetie,
00:41:44you are just too cute.
00:41:46You're just like
00:41:46a little doll.
00:41:47Can I give you a hug?
00:41:53She's my daughter.
00:41:54If you want one,
00:41:55go have your own.
00:41:58Dad is upstairs.
00:42:00He wants to see Ivy.
00:42:03You're Ivy,
00:42:04right?
00:42:04Can Big Sister
00:42:05give you a hug?
00:42:06Big Sister,
00:42:07how old are you even?
00:42:08And look how
00:42:08little Ivy is.
00:42:09Ivy should call you
00:42:10Aunt Elena.
00:42:11Vincent,

00:42:13to Miss Drake
00:42:13like that?
00:42:14Right!

00:42:21Then can you stop
00:42:22those bad people
00:42:23from bullying
00:42:25my daddy and mommy?
00:42:26Your daddy is the boss
00:42:28of the celestial order.
00:42:29Anyone who bullied him
00:42:30is already six feet under.
00:42:32Who would dare
00:42:32mess with him?
00:42:35Okay,
00:42:36Aunt Elena promises you.
00:42:37Miss Cole,

00:42:38and is hosting
00:42:39this gala tonight,
00:42:40I'll overlook
00:42:41what just happened.
00:42:42But if you ever
00:42:42provoke Miss Sterling again,
00:42:44or her husband,
00:42:45don't blame me
00:42:46for showing the Cole family
00:42:48no mercy.
00:42:49I understand,
00:42:51Miss Drake.
00:42:51They won't dare
00:42:52bully you anymore.
00:42:53Can Aunt Elena

00:42:59Grandpa,
00:43:00okay?
00:43:00Okay.
00:43:04Don't worry,
00:43:04Bianca.
00:43:05Ivy went to see
00:43:06her grandpa.
00:43:07She'll be fine.
00:43:08Bianca Sterling,
00:43:09you bitch!
00:43:10I'm not done with you
00:43:11for what you did!
00:43:12If you keep spewing filth,
00:43:13I'll cut out your tongue!
00:43:19You reckless fool!
00:43:21You think you can
00:43:22threaten a Cole?
00:43:25Aunt Elena,
00:43:26where are you taking me?
00:43:28I'm taking you
00:43:29to see your grandpa.
00:43:30Really, Aunt Elena?
00:43:31Do you know my grandpa?
00:43:32Of course.
00:43:33I'm your aunt after all.
00:43:37Where is my
00:43:37precious granddaughter?
00:43:39Elena,
00:43:40what's taking
00:43:40that girl so long?
00:43:43She looks so much
00:43:44like him.
00:43:45Dad,
00:43:46like what?
00:43:47She looks just like
00:43:48that brat Vincent.
00:43:49She's definitely a Drake.
00:43:50Mister,
00:43:51are you my daddy's daddy?
00:43:53My darling granddaughter,
00:43:54I am your grandfather.
00:43:56Are you really
00:43:57my grandpa?
00:43:57I really am
00:43:58your grandpa,
00:43:59my sweet granddaughter.
00:44:01Can grandpa
00:44:01give you a hug?
00:44:02Uh-huh.
00:44:03My good girl,
00:44:04my sweet little girl.
00:44:05Oh, by the way,
00:44:07sweetie,
00:44:08grandpa has
00:44:08a gift for you.
00:44:13This is the
00:44:13Drake family heirloom.
00:44:15Grandpa is
00:44:15giving it to you now.
00:44:17Do you like it?
00:44:17I love everything
00:44:19grandpa gives me.
00:44:22What a good girl
00:44:23you are.
00:44:24Tristan,
00:44:24this bitch
00:44:25humiliated me
00:44:26multiple times.
00:44:27You have to
00:44:27stand up for me.
00:44:29Who did it?
00:44:31It was him.
00:44:35That's Tristan Cole,
00:44:36the heir to the Cole family.
00:44:38I heard
00:44:38the Coles and Sterlings
00:44:40were engaged,
00:44:40but since Bianca
00:44:41had a child out of
00:44:42wedlock,
00:44:43the Coles were livid.
00:44:44They've been crushing
00:44:45the Sterlings for years.
00:44:46With all the new
00:44:47grudges combined,
00:44:48Bianca is in major
00:44:49trouble this time.
00:44:51Tristan,
00:44:51this guy,
00:44:52Drake,
00:44:53is the one who
00:44:53had that bastard
00:44:54with Bianca Sterling.
00:44:55He's her secret lover.
00:44:57What?
00:44:57Bianca Sterling?
00:44:58That bastard child?
00:45:00You had it with him?
00:45:01Mr. Tristan,
00:45:02I suggest you
00:45:03watch your mouth.
00:45:04My husband
00:45:04did hit your sister,
00:45:06but that's because
00:45:07she provoked him first.
00:45:09Husband?
00:45:11You married him?
00:45:12That's right.
00:45:13Vincent Drake
00:45:14is my husband.
00:45:15How dare you?
00:45:16You're betrothed to me.
00:45:17Who gave you
00:45:18permission
00:45:18to marry another man?
00:45:21Mr. Tristan,
00:45:22show some respect.
00:45:23Respect?
00:45:23Bianca Sterling,
00:45:24you had a bastard
00:45:25out of wedlock.
00:45:26I could have forgiven you.
00:45:27I even went easy
00:45:28on the Sterling family.
00:45:30I didn't destroy
00:45:31them completely.
00:45:31I was hoping
00:45:32you'd change your mind,
00:45:33but you never should have
00:45:34married some lowlife.
00:45:36You're crossing the line.
00:45:37Tristan Cole,
00:45:38show some respect
00:45:39to my husband.
00:45:40A loser like him
00:45:40doesn't deserve my respect.
00:45:42Bianca Sterling,
00:45:43tell me.
00:45:44How am I,
00:45:44Tristan Cole,
00:45:45not good enough for you?
00:45:46You'd rather marry a loser
00:45:48than be with me?
00:45:52Listen,
00:45:53I don't care who you are
00:45:54or what your past was
00:45:55with my wife,
00:45:57but let me warn you,
00:45:58if you ever dare
00:45:58harass my wife again,
00:46:00I'll destroy you.
00:46:02Vincent,
00:46:03stop talking.
00:46:04The Cole family
00:46:05in Rivermore.
00:46:05I don't care
00:46:06who they are
00:46:07in Rivermore.
00:46:08Anyone who bullies
00:46:09my wife
00:46:09will curl up
00:46:10if they're a dragon
00:46:11and kneel
00:46:12if they're a tiger.
00:46:13What's the deal
00:46:14with Bianca's husband?
00:46:15Where does he get the nerve?
00:46:17Does he think
00:46:17the Coles won't retaliate?
00:46:19This kid is dead meat.
00:46:20Mr. Tristan
00:46:21is all-powerful
00:46:21in Rivermore.
00:46:22Before Tristan,
00:46:23Cole was only
00:46:23pressuring the Sterlings.
00:46:25He didn't go for the kill.
00:46:26He just hoped
00:46:27Bianca Sterling
00:46:28would change her mind.
00:46:29But after this scene,
00:46:30the Coles
00:46:30will show no mercy.
00:46:31Tristan is such
00:46:33a worthless woman.
00:46:34Really worth
00:46:35all this effort?
00:46:36She clearly doesn't
00:46:37have any respect
00:46:38for you.
00:46:40Who the hell
00:46:41do you think you are?
00:46:42How dare you threaten me?
00:46:44You loser!
00:46:48If this were
00:46:49a few years ago,
00:46:50you'd be a corpse
00:46:51by now.
00:46:52Tristan,
00:46:52are you okay?
00:46:53I'm going to kill you!
00:46:55I, Tristan Cole,
00:46:56swear I'll kill you
00:46:56or I'm not fit
00:46:58to be a man!
00:46:59Guards!
00:46:59Someone get over here!
00:47:03Your orders,
00:47:04Mr. Tristan?
00:47:05Kill him!
00:47:05Kill him!
00:47:06No!
00:47:07Tristan Cole,
00:47:08what will it take
00:47:08for you to let us go?
00:47:10Bianca Sterling,
00:47:11weren't you just
00:47:12acting so tough?
00:47:13Why are you begging
00:47:14my brother now?
00:47:15Tristan Cole,
00:47:16if you want something,
00:47:17come at me.
00:47:18Don't make things
00:47:18hard for Vincent.
00:47:20What do I want?
00:47:22I want you to
00:47:22willingly become
00:47:23my woman.
00:47:25And I want this
00:47:26piece of trash
00:47:26to kneel before me.
00:47:28Like a slave,
00:47:29he must lick my boots.
00:47:30Then I'll let him go.
00:47:32You're going too far!
00:47:34Then he's a dead man!
00:47:35Do it!
00:47:38Stop bullying
00:47:39my daddy and mommy!
00:47:41Ivy,
00:47:41why are you here?
00:47:42Mommy,
00:47:43daddy,
00:47:43I just saw grandpa.
00:47:44He was so nice to me.
00:47:46He even gave me a gift.
00:47:47This little brat
00:47:48is the bastard child
00:47:49of Bianca and Vincent.
00:47:51Bianca Sterling,
00:47:52your whole family
00:47:53is finally all together.
00:47:55Good.
00:47:55This is just perfect.
00:47:57Might as well
00:47:57take care of them
00:47:58all at once.
00:47:59Grab this little bastard,
00:48:00too.
00:48:01I'll deal with
00:48:02both of them together.
00:48:04Stop bullying me!
00:48:05If my grandpa
00:48:06and aunt find out,
00:48:07they won't let you
00:48:08get away with this.
00:48:09Kid,
00:48:09I don't care
00:48:10if your grandpa
00:48:11shows up.
00:48:11Even if God
00:48:12himself came down,
00:48:13I still wouldn't
00:48:14let you off.
00:48:16Grandpa,
00:48:17there are bad people
00:48:18out here.
00:48:18They're bullying me,
00:48:19mommy and daddy.
00:48:20Please come and save us.
00:48:22What?
00:48:22Hang on,
00:48:23my sweet granddaughter.
00:48:24Grandpa is coming
00:48:25for you right now.
00:48:27They've got some nerve
00:48:28to bully Victor Drake's
00:48:30granddaughter.
00:48:30I'll make them pay!
00:48:33It's over.
00:48:34This guy is dead meat.
00:48:35He offended Mr. Tristan.
00:48:37He's a dead man walking.
00:48:38Tristan Cole,
00:48:39what are you doing?
00:48:40This is Mr. Drake's place.
00:48:42You dare to make a move?
00:48:43Aren't you afraid
00:48:44of crossing Mr. Drake?
00:48:46Bianca Sterling,
00:48:47but stop using Mr. Drake
00:48:48to threaten me.
00:48:49This Crown Hotel
00:48:50is Cole family property.
00:48:52I can kill
00:48:53whoever I want.
00:48:54Bianca,
00:48:55don't waste your breath
00:48:56on him.
00:48:57I'd like to see
00:48:57what makes him think
00:48:59he can kill me.
00:49:01Can you please
00:49:02stop at the big talk?
00:49:03Even if you don't
00:49:04care about yourself,
00:49:05you have to think
00:49:06about Ivy.
00:49:09Tristan Cole,
00:49:10what exactly
00:49:10would you want?
00:49:11What will it take
00:49:12to let my husband go?
00:49:13My sweet granddaughter,
00:49:15what else do you want?
00:49:16Whatever you desire,
00:49:17even the stars in the sky,
00:49:19I'll pluck them down
00:49:20for you.
00:49:21Grandpa,
00:49:21you're so good to me.
00:49:23Besides mommy and daddy,
00:49:24you're the person
00:49:25who treats me best.
00:49:26Does no one else
00:49:27treat you well?
00:49:28My other grandparents,
00:49:30they always say
00:49:31I'm a jinx.
00:49:32That since the day
00:49:33I was born,
00:49:33I've only brought
00:49:35disaster to others.
00:49:36Those bastards,
00:49:37how dare they call
00:49:38Victor Drake's
00:49:39granddaughter a jinx.
00:49:40They deserve to die.
00:49:41Don't you worry, Ivy.
00:49:42If anyone bullies you
00:49:43from now on,
00:49:44just tell me.
00:49:45I'll stand up for you.
00:49:46Thank you, grandpa.
00:49:47Oh, and grandpa,
00:49:48daddy and mommy
00:49:49haven't seen me
00:49:50in a while.
00:49:50They must be worried.
00:49:52I'm going to find them now.
00:49:53Bye, grandpa.
00:49:56I want to know
00:49:57everything about
00:49:57Ivy's past.
00:49:58My precious granddaughter
00:50:00must have suffered
00:50:01so much.
00:50:02Ha ha ha!
00:50:03You little brat.
00:50:04So you even know
00:50:05how to call for backup?
00:50:06Oh, so your grandpa
00:50:08is coming?
00:50:08I'm so scared!
00:50:11Vincent,
00:50:11what on earth
00:50:12did you tell Ivy?
00:50:13I didn't say anything.
00:50:15This can't go on.
00:50:16You're going to ruin Ivy.
00:50:18Stop making things
00:50:19harder for me.
00:50:20Look at what you're wearing.
00:50:21You look pathetic.
00:50:24Little brat,
00:50:25tell me,
00:50:26what's your grandpa's name?
00:50:27Maybe when he sees me later,
00:50:29he'll have to kneel
00:50:29and beg for mercy.
00:50:31He is my grandpa.
00:50:34Ha ha ha!
00:50:35Did you tell Ivy
00:50:36to say this too?
00:50:38It really wasn't me.
00:50:39Vincent,
00:50:40I don't want to see you
00:50:41right now.
00:50:42I...
00:50:42What are you still doing here?
00:50:48Ha ha ha!
00:50:49Exactly!
00:50:50Don't tell me
00:50:51you're planning to sell
00:50:52pork to Astera's
00:50:53richest man.
00:50:54I'll go change
00:50:54and come right back.
00:50:55Get lost already.
00:50:57Ha ha ha ha!
00:50:58You're a cute little thing,
00:51:00aren't you?
00:51:00Do you have any idea
00:51:01who he is?
00:51:03He's the richest man
00:51:04in Astera.
00:51:05He's someone
00:51:06I have to kneel
00:51:07and kowtow to.
00:51:08And you claim
00:51:09he's your grandpa?
00:51:11I'm not lying!
00:51:12He really is my grandpa!
00:51:14This pendant
00:51:14is a gift
00:51:15from my grandpa!
00:51:19My grandpa gave me that!
00:51:21Give it back!
00:51:24Ha ha ha!
00:51:26Then have your grandpa
00:51:27come find me!
00:51:28How dare you!
00:51:36Mr. Drake!
00:51:38Is this the richest man,
00:51:40Mr. Drake?
00:51:41What a powerful presence!
00:51:44Mr. Drake,
00:51:45my name is Tristan Cole.
00:51:46I'm from the Cole family.
00:51:50My sweet granddaughter,

00:51:53what happened.
00:51:54Granddaughter?
00:51:56Could this Jinx
00:51:57really be
00:51:58Mr. Drake's granddaughter?
00:51:59How is that possible?
00:52:01Ivy really is
00:52:02Mr. Drake's granddaughter.
00:52:03Those bad people
00:52:04were bullying
00:52:05Daddy and Mommy.
00:52:07He even broke
00:52:08the gift you gave me.
00:52:10Don't cry,
00:52:11my sweet granddaughter.
00:52:12Whenever you cry,
00:52:13it breaks my heart.
00:52:14Don't you worry.
00:52:15Grandpa will definitely
00:52:16teach these scumbags
00:52:17a lesson.
00:52:19It was you.
00:52:20You bullied
00:52:21my precious granddaughter.
00:52:22I...
00:52:23Mr. Drake!
00:52:24She...
00:52:24She...
00:52:25How could she be
00:52:26your granddaughter?
00:52:27If she isn't
00:52:28my granddaughter...
00:52:29Then are you?
00:52:34Mr. Drake,
00:52:34I was wrong!
00:52:35I was blind
00:52:36not to recognize you!
00:52:37Please forgive me
00:52:38just this once!
00:52:39I'll never do it again!
00:52:40You think you'll
00:52:41have a next time?
00:52:44That old man,
00:52:45he still has
00:52:46a hell of a temper.
00:52:47Bullying my precious
00:52:48granddaughter?

00:52:50No!

00:53:03to Ivy!
00:53:05Mr. Drake,
00:53:06thank you for helping us.
00:53:07We're family.
00:53:08There's no need
00:53:09for thanks.
00:53:09No random nobody
00:53:10is allowed to bully
00:53:12Victor Drake's family.
00:53:13What's going on?
00:53:14Could Bianca Sterling
00:53:15really be
00:53:16Victor Drake's
00:53:17daughter-in-law?
00:53:18Oh my god,
00:53:18Tristan Cole really
00:53:19messed with the wrong person.
00:53:21Family!
00:53:22Mr. Drake,
00:53:23are you and my husband
00:53:24Vincent Drake
00:53:25really father and son?
00:53:27I don't know him.
00:53:30Don't know him?
00:53:32Don't know him?
00:53:36Dad and Vincent
00:53:37are unbelievable.
00:53:38It's been so many years
00:53:39and they're still
00:53:40so childish.
00:53:43Mr. Drake,
00:53:44didn't you say
00:53:44this little brat
00:53:45was your granddaughter?
00:53:46How can you not
00:53:47know her now?
00:53:49How dare you
00:53:50call her a brat?
00:53:51Guards,
00:53:51get these bastards
00:53:52out of here
00:53:53for bullying
00:53:53my precious granddaughter.

00:53:56Mr. Drake,
00:53:56I was wrong.
00:53:57Please have mercy.
00:53:58I'll apologize
00:53:58to your granddaughter.
00:54:00I'll apologize
00:54:00to her right now.
00:54:02Apologize?
00:54:02You're not worthy.
00:54:03Throw them all out!
00:54:05What on earth
00:54:06is going on?
00:54:06Is that girl
00:54:07really Mr. Drake's
00:54:09granddaughter?
00:54:10Mr. Drake,
00:54:10thank you so much
00:54:11for your help.
00:54:12I'm thanking you
00:54:13on behalf of my daughter.
00:54:14Vincent,
00:54:15Mr. Drake helped us.
00:54:16Come and thank him.
00:54:17Without him,
00:54:18I could have handled
00:54:18this mess.
00:54:19Who needs his help?
00:54:20Vincent,
00:54:21how can you talk
00:54:22to Mr. Drake like that?
00:54:24You unfilial brat!
00:54:26Dad,
00:54:26calm down.
00:54:26Today is a joyful day
00:54:27to reunite
00:54:28with your granddaughter.
00:54:29Don't stoop
00:54:30to Vincent's level.
00:54:31Besides,
00:54:31his identity is special.
00:54:32It can't be exposed.
00:54:34Let's call it a day.
00:54:35Vincent,
00:54:36you know how stubborn
00:54:36Dad is.
00:54:40Honey,
00:54:41it's getting late.
00:54:42Ivy needs to go to sleep.
00:54:43Let's head home.
00:54:44Okay.
00:54:45Mr. Drake,
00:54:46my husband is just like that.
00:54:47Please bear with him.
00:54:48Don't take it personally.
00:54:50In that case,
00:54:50take Ivy home now.
00:54:52Elena,
00:54:52see them out.
00:54:53Miss Sterling,
00:54:54let me see you out.
00:54:55Goodbye, Grandpa.
00:54:58My precious granddaughter,
00:55:00if you miss me,
00:55:01remember to call me.
00:55:05Tristan,
00:55:05that little brat
00:55:06is Mr. Drake's granddaughter.
00:55:08We've offended Mr. Drake.
00:55:09What are we going to do now?
00:55:11That little brat,
00:55:11you couldn't be Mr. Drake's granddaughter.
00:55:13In this world,
00:55:14there are no such coincidences.
00:55:15Mr. Drake and that loser Vincent
00:55:17don't even know each other.
00:55:18How could Ivy Sterling
00:55:19possibly be his granddaughter?
00:55:21Could it be that
00:55:22Mr. Drake just likes kids,
00:55:24so...
00:55:26Bianca Sterling,
00:55:27I used to still have feelings for you.
00:55:29Since you don't know
00:55:30what's good for you,
00:55:31don't blame me
00:55:32for being ruthless.
00:55:33Don't blame me for being ruthless.
00:55:34Don't blame me for being ruthless.
00:55:36Vincent,
00:55:37is there something
00:55:38you're hiding from me?
00:55:39Honey,
00:55:40I'm not hiding anything from you.
00:55:42What exactly
00:55:43is your connection
00:55:43to Mr. Drake?
00:55:45Didn't I tell you?
00:55:46I don't know him at all.
00:55:47Then why did Mr. Drake help us?
00:55:48I have no idea.
00:55:49Maybe he thought Ivy was cute
00:55:51and she reminded him
00:55:52of his granddaughter.
00:55:53Is that it?
00:55:53Honey,
00:55:54it really is.
00:55:54I really don't know
00:55:55that old man.
00:55:56I guess I was overthinking it.
00:55:57If your father
00:55:58were the richest man,
00:55:59you wouldn't be such a loser.
00:56:01Honey,
00:56:01that's cold.
00:56:02Honey,
00:56:02our daughter is asleep.
00:56:03Let's talk about
00:56:04whatever it is at home.
00:56:05Vincent.
00:56:07Vincent,
00:56:08I'm sorry.
00:56:08I shouldn't have said
00:56:09those hurtful things to you.
00:56:11I apologize.
00:56:13Honey,
00:56:14we're family.
00:56:14No need to apologize.
00:56:24Honey,
00:56:24what's all this?
00:56:25Come in here for a second.
00:56:26Where?
00:56:27The bedroom.
00:56:28The bedroom?
00:56:29Could it be?
00:56:34Honey,
00:56:35should I take a shower first?
00:56:39Honey,
00:56:40isn't this
00:56:41a bit too fast?
00:56:42I'm not mentally prepared yet.
00:56:44And what kind of preparation
00:56:46do you think you need?
00:56:48You're right.
00:56:48I don't need to be prepared.
00:56:50All right then,
00:56:51Bianca.
00:56:51Then hurry up.
00:56:52Fine.
00:56:53You said it.
00:56:58Vincent,
00:56:59I have a few questions for you.
00:57:00If you dare lie to me,
00:57:02I won't let you off easy.
00:57:03Honey,
00:57:04please just ask.
00:57:05First,
00:57:06who exactly are you?
00:57:08I'm just an ordinary butcher.
00:57:09And?
00:57:10A taxi driver.
00:57:11A security guard.
00:57:13Vincent,
00:57:13do you really think I'm stupid?
00:57:15If you're just an ordinary man,
00:57:17how could you punch through
00:57:18our security door with one hand?
00:57:19If you're an ordinary person,
00:57:21how could you stay so calm
00:57:22at the gala tonight?
00:57:23Facing Tristan Cole's threats,
00:57:25you didn't even flinch.
00:57:26My intuition tells me
00:57:27you're not an ordinary man.
00:57:29Does she know something?
00:57:31Tell me,
00:57:32are you a fugitive?
00:57:33A fugitive?
00:57:35Honey,
00:57:36you've got me all wrong.
00:57:37How could I possibly be a fugitive?
00:57:40If you're not a fugitive,
00:57:41why have you been hiding
00:57:42all these years?
00:57:43Driving a taxi one day,
00:57:45working construction the next,
00:57:46and then selling meat?
00:57:47Honey,
00:57:48you've really misunderstood me.
00:57:49I can swear to God,
00:57:50I am really not a fugitive.
00:57:52Besides,
00:57:53I'm such a kind person.
00:57:54I wouldn't even step on a bug.
00:57:55How could I be a fugitive?
00:57:57Honey,
00:57:58you've watched too many spy movies.
00:58:00You're really not?
00:58:01It's the absolute truth.
00:58:03Fine.
00:58:04I'll believe you for now.
00:58:05But let me ask you,
00:58:07this is the most important question.
00:58:10Will you treat Ivy well from now on?
00:58:12Ivy is my daughter.
00:58:13Of course I'll treat her well.
00:58:15Swear it.
00:58:16I swear to God.
00:58:17Ivy is my daughter.
00:58:18One hundred percent.
00:58:19No,
00:58:20one thousand percent.
00:58:20I'll love her.
00:58:21I'll protect her from any grievance.
00:58:23Honey,
00:58:24you've asked your questions,
00:58:25and I've made my oath.
00:58:26Now,
00:58:26can you finally put the knife?
00:58:28But I feel like you're lying to me.
00:58:31Bianca Sterling,
00:58:32don't push it.
00:58:34What did you say?
00:58:35If a tiger doesn't show its claws,
00:58:38do you think I'm a pushover?
00:58:40You...
00:58:42Honey,
00:58:43you've gone too far.
00:58:46What are you doing?
00:58:48Shh.
00:58:49You're my wife.
00:58:51What do you think I'm doing?
00:58:54You...
00:58:55Don't try anything.
00:59:01Since it's already come to this,
00:59:03I'll just treat it like a mosquito bite.
00:59:14You...
00:59:15Get some rest,
00:59:16honey.
00:59:20Honey,
00:59:21no matter who I am,
00:59:22I'm still Ivy's father,
00:59:23and your husband.
00:59:24I will protect you both.
00:59:26This guy.
00:59:29Alright,
00:59:30stop being so cheeky.
00:59:31I'm at the office.
00:59:32Go back and look after Ivy.
00:59:43Miss Sterling's father came into the office early today
00:59:46and pulled a board meeting.
00:59:47He's probably looking for trouble.
00:59:49Sigh.
00:59:50Poor Miss Sterling.
00:59:51When she took over,
00:59:52it was a complete mess.
00:59:53Now that the project failed,
00:59:54this board meeting is likely a move to oust her.
00:59:57If she's kicked out,
00:59:58she'll have nothing left.
00:59:59In my opinion,
01:00:00that board is just a bunch of good-for-nothings.
01:00:02Without Miss Sterling,
01:00:03Evercrest would have gone bankrupt.
01:00:07Mrs. Sterling,
01:00:09your father and all the
01:00:10shareholders are waiting for you.
01:00:12They're out for blood.
01:00:14It looks like they're trying to oust you.
01:00:18I see.
01:00:29This is a rare sight.
01:00:30I hardly ever see any of you at the office.
01:00:33But today,
01:00:34everyone's actually here.
01:00:37Bianca,
01:00:37what's that supposed to mean?
01:00:39Am I wrong?
01:00:41You shareholders are always first in line
01:00:43when it's time to collect dividends.
01:00:44But when it comes to work,
01:00:46you're nowhere to be found.
01:00:48Dad,
01:00:49look at Bianca's attitude!
01:00:54Bianca!
01:00:55You think you're so tough now,
01:00:56daring to speak to me like that?
01:00:59Enough.
01:01:00Cut the small talk.
01:01:01Just get straight to the point.
01:01:03Bianca,
01:01:04do you have any idea what you did yesterday?
01:01:06And what exactly did I do?
01:01:07Because you offended Tristan Cole
01:01:10at the charity gala,
01:01:11the Cole family is furious.
01:01:12They've issued a total blacklist
01:01:14against Evercrest Group.
01:01:15Because of this,
01:01:16many of our suppliers
01:01:17have terminated their contracts.
01:01:19The company is in a desperate crisis
01:01:21and you still have the nerve to be snide?
01:01:25I'm fully aware of the situation,
01:01:27but I will find a way
01:01:28to resolve this crisis.
01:01:30Resolve this crisis?
01:01:31With what?
01:01:32How can you resolve it?
01:01:33The Cole family is
01:01:34the leading enterprise in the region.
01:01:36With just one word from him,
01:01:38no one in the province
01:01:39will work with us.
01:01:40At this rate,
01:01:41it won't be long
01:01:42before the company goes bankrupt.
01:01:44So what are you all
01:01:45really trying to say?
01:01:46Tristan Cole has sent word.
01:01:47If you beg the Cole family for mercy
01:01:50and become his woman,
01:01:51he will give Evercrest Group
01:01:53a lifeline.
01:01:55And if I refuse?
01:01:57Then we will remove you
01:01:59as chairwoman
01:02:00and kick you out
01:02:01of the company for good.
01:02:02So is this your
01:02:03unanimous decision?
01:02:04Ms. Sterling,
01:02:05we've run this company
01:02:06for years.
01:02:07We can't just let it go bankrupt.
01:02:09He's right, Ms. Sterling.
01:02:10Under your leadership
01:02:11these past years,
01:02:12things have improved a bit.
01:02:14But the Cole family
01:02:15has deep pockets.
01:02:16We can't win against them.
01:02:18Do you see this now,
01:02:19Bianca Sterling?
01:02:19You brought all of this
01:02:20on yourself.
01:02:21You must take responsibility
01:02:22for this.
01:02:23Take back my shares?
01:02:25You don't have the right.
01:02:26Don't forget,
01:02:27Evercrest Group
01:02:27was built by my mother
01:02:28from the ground up.
01:02:29The shares I hold
01:02:30were given to me by her.
01:02:31You have no authority
01:02:32to kick me out.
01:02:33Are you threatening me,
01:02:34Bianca Sterling?
01:02:35I'm not threatening you.
01:02:36Let me tell you all something.
01:02:38You might be afraid
01:02:39of Tristan Cole,
01:02:40but I certainly am not.
01:02:41Don't forget,
01:02:42you only own 40%
01:02:43of the shares
01:02:44while we hold
01:02:45a full 60% stake.
01:02:48So you want to do this
01:02:49the hard way then?
01:02:50All those in favor
01:02:51of removing
01:02:52Bianca Sterling,
01:02:53please raise your hands.
01:03:08I'd like to see
01:03:09who dares
01:03:09to raise a hand.
01:03:14Vincent,
01:03:14what are you doing here?
01:03:15Honey,
01:03:16I'm here now.
01:03:17This old scumbag
01:03:17is trying to bully you.
01:03:19Not on my watch.
01:03:20Bianca Sterling,
01:03:21do you have any idea
01:03:21what kind of event this is?
01:03:23How dare you bring
01:03:24this lowlife in here?
01:03:25Do you have any respect
01:03:26for us at all?
01:03:27Dad,
01:03:27you see this?
01:03:28This Bianca
01:03:29actually brought her
01:03:30lowlife to the office.
01:03:31If we keep letting her
01:03:32get away with this,
01:03:33our company's name
01:03:34will change.
01:03:35Bianca Sterling,
01:03:36get him out of here!
01:03:38Old man,
01:03:39I warned you last time.
01:03:40If you bully my wife again,
01:03:42I'll kill you.
01:03:43Then try and touch me.
01:03:44You think I won't?
01:03:46Vincent,
01:03:46don't be reckless.
01:03:47Honey,
01:03:47don't stop me.
01:03:48Vincent,
01:03:49that's enough.
01:03:52Give me three days.
01:03:53Within three days,
01:03:55I'll find a new supplier
01:03:56for the company.
01:03:57Why should I give you
01:03:57those three days?
01:03:5940% of the shares,
01:04:00is that enough?
01:04:01If I can't find a new supplier
01:04:03within three days,
01:04:04I will not only resign,
01:04:05but I'll also give
01:04:06all my shares to you.
01:04:07But,
01:04:08if I find a new supplier
01:04:09and secure a long-term partnership,
01:04:11I want all the shares
01:04:12that you hold.
01:04:13I'm sure.
01:04:14I'm very sure.
01:04:15I'm giving you three days.
01:04:16In three days,
01:04:16I'll hold a press conference.
01:04:18At that time,
01:04:18I'll invite all the city's elites.
01:04:20If you fail to resolve the crisis,
01:04:22every asset in your name
01:04:23will belong to us.
01:04:24Let's go.
01:04:25Wait.
01:04:26Kid,
01:04:26what else do you want?
01:04:27You old geezer,
01:04:28what if you lose?
01:04:29I won't lose.
01:04:30Don't be so sure.
01:04:31If you lose,
01:04:32you'll hand over your shares
01:04:33to my wife for free.
01:04:34How dare you?
01:04:35Old geezer,
01:04:35didn't you say you couldn't lose?
01:04:37Why are you chickening out now?
01:04:38Fine,
01:04:39you're on.
01:04:41Who let you in?
01:04:42Bianca,
01:04:43I'm just trying to help.
01:04:44Vincent Drake,
01:04:44can you stop being so full of yourself?
01:04:46I've told you many times
01:04:47you can't help me.
01:04:48You're only going to cause me more trouble.
01:04:49Honey,
01:04:50if you just trust me,
01:04:51I can solve all your problems.
01:04:52Enough.
01:04:53I'm in no mood to hear this right now.
01:04:55Just go.
01:04:55I have things to handle.
01:04:57By the way,
01:04:57I have a business dinner tonight.
01:04:59Don't bother picking me up.
01:05:00All right.
01:05:01I'm heading out then.
01:05:07Fiona Hart,
01:05:08my company is in some trouble.
01:05:10I might need your help.
01:05:12Are you free?
01:05:12Let me buy you dinner.
01:05:14Fiona,
01:05:15that Bianca Sterling you mentioned,
01:05:17is she really as beautiful as you say?
01:05:19Mr. Boone,
01:05:20Bianca was my classmate in college.
01:05:22Back then,
01:05:23she was our campus belle.
01:05:24The men chasing her back then
01:05:26could have lined up all the way to Paris.
01:05:28So,
01:05:29will she sleep with me tonight?
01:05:31Mr. Boone,
01:05:32you don't understand.
01:05:33Bianca's company is in serious trouble lately.
01:05:35If no one helps her,
01:05:36she'll go bankrupt.
01:05:37As long as you...
01:05:38Ha ha ha!
01:05:39Fiona,
01:05:40if I can have her tonight,
01:05:41I'll make sure you're well rewarded.
01:05:46Bianca,
01:05:46long time no see.
01:05:47Fiona,
01:05:48it's been a while.
01:05:48By the way,
01:05:49Bianca,
01:05:49let me introduce you.
01:05:51This is the general manager of Titan Group,
01:05:53Mr. Cedric Boone.
01:05:54Mr. Boone,
01:05:55this is the one I told you about.
01:05:56Ms. Sterling is not only stunning,
01:05:58but also a famous business woman in our city.
01:06:01Hello,
01:06:02Mr. Boone.
01:06:02I've heard so much about you.
01:06:19Yes,
01:06:20sir.
01:06:20I understand.
01:06:21Sir,
01:06:21I'm heading to Northport immediately.
01:06:24Get the car ready.
01:06:25I need to reach Northport as fast as possible.
01:06:34Turn around now.
01:06:35Get us to Northport immediately.
01:06:37Mr. Pierce,
01:06:38aren't we supposed to sign that $1.4 billion contract?
01:06:41Why go to Northport now?
01:06:42A $1.4 billion contract?
01:06:44Compared to him,
01:06:44it's not worth a damn.
01:06:50Move at maximum speed.
01:06:52We're heading to Northport.
01:07:00Daddy,
01:07:01it's so late.
01:07:01Why isn't Mommy home yet?
01:07:03I'm so sleepy.
01:07:04Mommy is busy with work.
01:07:05She'll be home soon.
01:07:07Go to sleep first,
01:07:08Ivy.
01:07:08I'll give her a call
01:07:09and check on her.
01:07:10Okay.
01:07:11Okay.
01:07:20Boss,
01:07:20this is Shade.
01:07:21It's so late.
01:07:22Do you have any orders?
01:07:23Look into something for me.
01:07:24Find out who my wife met with tonight
01:07:26and where they met.
01:07:32Understood,
01:07:33Boss.
01:07:33Is there anything else you need me to do?
01:07:35There is one more thing.
01:07:37My wife's company is in some trouble.
01:07:39See if you can help her without revealing my identity.
01:07:42That's not a problem, Boss.
01:07:43In this country,
01:07:44we own over a dozen
01:07:45Fortune 500 companies.
01:07:47I'll call them right now
01:07:48and have them head to Northport
01:07:49as fast as they can.
01:08:00Bianca,
01:08:00I heard your company is being targeted by the Cole family.
01:08:03But don't worry.
01:08:05These little troubles,
01:08:06Mr. Boone can definitely help you solve them.
01:08:09Right, Mr. Boone?
01:08:10The Cole family is just a local business in Northport.
01:08:13That's all.
01:08:13They might act big here,
01:08:15but to the Titan Group,
01:08:16they're absolutely nothing.
01:08:17Mr. Boone,
01:08:18I'm well aware of Titan Group's power.
01:08:20I came here today to seek a partnership,
01:08:23Ms. Sterling.
01:08:24Have a drink with Mr. Boone first.
01:08:25If he's happy,
01:08:27the deal is a sure thing.
01:08:28Absolutely.
01:08:29Fiona,
01:08:30you know I don't really drink.
01:08:31Can I toast with tea instead?
01:08:36Bianca,
01:08:36it wasn't easy for you to set this meeting.
01:08:39If you ruin the mood,
01:08:40the deal will go south.
01:08:43But no buttons.
01:08:44Just take a small sip to show some respect.
01:08:59Hello?
01:09:00Boss,
01:09:01regarding your wife,
01:09:01I've finished my investigation.
01:09:03She's meeting with someone named Fiona Hart.
01:09:06They're in room 308 of the Crown Club.
01:09:08What's this Fiona Hart's deal?
01:09:09Fiona Hart is a notorious socialite in Northport.
01:09:11She often mingles in elite circles.
01:09:13She has a terrible reputation.
01:09:15Boss,
01:09:16since your wife is with her,
01:09:17she might be in danger.
01:09:18Send me the address.
01:09:24Bianca,
01:09:25what's wrong?
01:09:26Are you not feeling well?
01:09:27I'm fine.
01:09:31Well done,
01:09:32Fiona.
01:09:33Mr. Boone,
01:09:34is Bianca Sterling
01:09:35to your liking?
01:09:36She's exactly my type.
01:09:38She's absolutely perfect.
01:09:40I,
01:09:40Cedric Boone,
01:09:40have seen so many women,
01:09:42but this is the first time
01:09:43I've seen one like her.
01:09:45Mr. Boone,
01:09:46a night like this is priceless.
01:09:48I won't disturb you any longer.
01:10:07Bianca,
01:10:08Bianca,
01:10:09wake up,
01:10:09please wake up.
01:10:13Vincent,
01:10:14you're here.
01:10:15Who are you?
01:10:16Who let you in here?
01:10:19You bastard,
01:10:21how dare you touch my wife?
01:10:22You're dead.
01:10:23What do you think you're doing?
01:10:25Do you have any idea who I am?
01:10:29You dare hit me?
01:10:30You actually hit me.
01:10:32Guards,
01:10:33get in here now.
01:10:35You dare touch me?
01:10:36Kill him now.
01:10:42Come at me all at once.
01:10:58Now it's your turn.
01:11:14I'm sorry,
01:11:15sir.
01:11:15I was wrong.
01:11:16Please have mercy.
01:11:17I don't want her anymore.
01:11:19I'll leave right now.
01:11:20My woman,
01:11:21you think you can touch her?
01:11:24You touched my woman.
01:11:26Now you must pay the price.
01:11:47Honey,
01:11:48let's go home.
01:11:58Honey,
01:11:59can you stay?
01:12:00I'm so hot.
01:12:01Bianca,
01:12:02you...
01:12:10I'm so hot.
01:12:19You're tired.
01:12:31I saw my mom and her son.
01:12:35Why the hell did you kick me?
01:12:37You pervert! What did you do to me?
01:12:40You've got some nerve! Look at what you did to me!
01:12:45I did all that?
01:12:47Who else could it have been?
01:12:49Get out!
01:12:59Mommy, you're awake!
01:13:01Breakfast is ready. Eat it while it's hot.
01:13:03Okay!
01:13:09Vincent, come up here for a second. I have something to tell you.
01:13:13Sure.
01:13:14Ivy, Daddy's gonna talk to Mommy for a bit. Be a good girl and eat your breakfast.
01:13:18Okay, Daddy!
01:13:30Honey, what did you want to tell me?
01:13:37Vincent, there's $700,000 in here. Take the money and leave Seabrook.
01:13:44Bianca, what are you talking about? Why are you giving me money? Why do you want me to leave Seabrook?
01:13:49Vincent, to be honest with you, regarding the three-day agreement with my father, I have no hope of winning.
01:13:55If the board of directors kicks me out, I'll have absolutely nothing left. I don't want to drag you down
01:14:01with me. I'm so grateful for everything you've done for me and Ivy lately. I can see it. You're a
01:14:07wonderful father. But I've let you down. If you stay with us, I'll only ruin your life.
01:14:12Bianca, do you think a good father and a good husband would leave his family in their time of need?
01:14:20But you shouldn't have gotten involved in this. It's my fault you're in this mess. It's not too late for
01:14:25you to leave.
01:14:27Bianca, all this time, I've only wanted you to trust me. Trust that I can protect you both. A husband
01:14:32and wife should stay together through it all. Just trust me one last time, okay?
01:14:38Vincent, thank you.
01:14:47Vince Sterling, Everpress Group is holding a press conference today to announce the results of the bet between you and
01:14:52your father. If you lose the bet, the board will remove you from office. Could we ask, are you fully
01:14:56prepared?
01:14:56Ms. Sterling, if you lose, what are your plans?
01:15:01What can she do? Her fate is to be kicked out with absolutely nothing.
01:15:10How dare you talk about my mommy like that?
01:15:13You little jinx. If you talk to me like that again, I'll rip your mouth apart.
01:15:18What did you say?
01:15:23The conference hasn't started yet. It's still anyone's game. Come on, let's go inside.
01:15:31Ms. Sterling, a few words, please. Give us a statement.
01:15:36Dad, Bianca is acting so confident. Could she really have some backup plan?
01:15:40She's a rat in a trap. Just a final desperate act. Enough of this. Let's head inside.
01:15:50Thank you all for taking the time to attend Everpress Group's media press conference.
01:15:55As you all know, Everpress Group was built from the ground up by me and my late wife.
01:15:59Since my wife passed away, the company was handed over to my daughter, Bianca Sterling.
01:16:03But she has made enemies everywhere, even offending the Cole family.
01:16:07Combined with her mismanagement, she's caused the company severe losses.
01:16:12After much deliberation, the board unanimously decided to remove her as the chairman.
01:16:17But she used her shares to threaten us, trying to defy the board's decision.
01:16:22That led to this betting agreement.
01:16:26Bianca, your three-day pact is up.
01:16:28You said if you couldn't bring in a new supplier, you would resign to take the blame and hand over
01:16:34all of your shares.
01:16:37So that new supplier, did you find one?
01:16:44Look at her. No supplier would ever work with her now.
01:16:47Bianca Sterling, stop acting tough.
01:16:50We gave you a chance three days ago.
01:16:52If you had just left the company, you could have kept some shares and your dignity.
01:16:56But now, you have nothing.
01:16:59Soon you'll be like a rat in the street, despised by everyone.
01:17:02Is Bianca Sterling really that bad?
01:17:05Wasn't she a powerful businesswoman?
01:17:07That was all just for show.
01:17:08Or it is, her private life is a mess.
01:17:10A child out of wedlocks, she gave birth to a jinx who's cursed the Sterling family for years.
01:17:16Bianca Sterling, I'm talking to you.
01:17:18Did you find a supplier or not?
01:17:20I say, how can your mouth be so nasty?
01:17:22I'm not as pathetic as Bianca Sterling.
01:17:24She's been shameless since she was a kid, seducing men left and right.
01:17:28She even gave birth to this little bastard, Jinx.
01:17:32She deserves everything coming to her.
01:17:36You dare hit me?
01:17:38Speak again and I'll cut your tongue out.
01:17:40Bianca, you've completely lost your mind.
01:17:42Not only did you bring this random man here in public, but you even dared to hit her.
01:17:47My husband is right.
01:17:48Filthy mouths deserve to be slapped.
01:17:53Everyone, come and look.
01:17:55This woman has no respect for anyone.
01:17:57She treats her elders with contempt.
01:17:59She brought a random man here to bully her own family.
01:18:02Someone like her should be despised by everyone.
01:18:05Don't talk about my mommy like that.
01:18:07My mommy isn't like that.
01:18:09You're bullying my mommy.
01:18:10You're the bad ones, you little jinx.
01:18:12How dare you talk back to me?
01:18:14Do you think I won't teach you a lesson?
01:18:16That's enough.
01:18:17Bianca, since you failed to bring in any new suppliers,
01:18:20then sign the equity transfer agreement right now.
01:18:26I'm sorry.
01:18:27I've let you all down.
01:18:31I, Bianca Sterling, am a woman of my word.
01:18:34I accept the consequences.
01:18:36Bianca, you deserve this fate.
01:18:38Bianca, you should have seen this coming.
01:18:40Why did you even bother?
01:18:49Honey, who said we've lost?
01:18:51Bianca, I'm curious.
01:18:52Where does your confidence come from?
01:18:54Don't tell me your confidence comes from this loser.
01:18:57Bianca, everyone in C-Rope knows the truth.
01:19:00This man of yours is nothing more than a gigolo you're keeping.
01:19:03How dare a loser spout such nonsense here.
01:19:05Bianca Sterling, in front of the media and the shareholders,
01:19:09you will sign this agreement, whether you like it or not.
01:19:12Vincent, a loss is a loss.
01:19:13I can handle it.
01:19:14We'll have plenty of chances to make a comeback in the future.
01:19:18Honey, I said you haven't lost, so you won't.
01:19:21Marcus Lynn of Silverline Group is here.
01:19:23Nolan Pierce of Skyreach Group is here.
01:19:25Garrett Shaw of Redwater Group is here.
01:19:31Titan Group, Skyreach Group, Redwater Group.
01:19:34Holy shit, these are all top tier.
01:19:36Mega corporations from out of state.
01:19:38Why would the heads of these companies all come to a small place like Northport?
01:19:43Could all of this be because of Vincent Drake?
01:19:49Mr. Flynn, Mr. Pierce, Mr. Shaw, what brings you all here?
01:19:53And who are you?
01:19:54I am Warren Sterling, the current chairman of Evercrest Group.
01:19:57I am also the host of this media conference.
01:19:59May I ask what brings you here?
01:20:00The chairman of Evercrest Group?
01:20:02Isn't it supposed to be Ms. Bianca Sterling?
01:20:04Mr. Flynn, you don't understand.
01:20:06Bianca Sterling is mediocre.
01:20:08She has already been removed by the board.
01:20:12Mr. Flynn, what was that for?
01:20:15Do you have any idea that all of us came here specifically?
01:20:19For Ms. Sterling?
01:20:20What?
01:20:23Mr. Flynn, Mr. Pierce, you must have the wrong person.
01:20:26Bianca Sterling is just a worthless bitch.
01:20:29Why would you look for her?
01:20:32Excuse me, which one of you is Ms. Bianca Sterling?
01:20:39I am.
01:20:42Marcus Flynn of Titan Group.
01:20:44Nolan Pierce of Skyreach Group.
01:20:45Garrett Shaw of Redwater Group.
01:20:49Our respects to you, Ms. Sterling.
01:20:51How is this possible?
01:20:53They...
01:20:54They...
01:20:55How could they be so respectful to Bianca Sterling?
01:20:59Gentlemen, what is all this for?
01:21:01Ms. Sterling, we were entrusted by someone to seek a partnership with you.
01:21:05Partner with me?
01:21:06Yes, Ms. Sterling.
01:21:07Whatever you need, be it manpower or capital, our companies will provide it.
01:21:12Ms. Sterling, this is our combined offer.
01:21:14Please, have a look.
01:21:15A $14 billion investment, development rights for the Summit Project, and maritime trade rights.
01:21:22This is too precious.
01:21:23I don't deserve this.
01:21:24Ms. Sterling, please don't be so modest.
01:21:26It's the least we could do.
01:21:27This is nothing.
01:21:28Even if I had to give you my company, I'd do it gladly.
01:21:30These guys are quite sensible.
01:21:33But I can't accept this for nothing.
01:21:35You have to tell me who ordered you to do this.
01:21:38Well, honey, since they're being so sincere, let's just accept it.
01:21:42Was it really him who arranged all of this?
01:21:45According to the betting agreement you signed, if my wife found a business partner to save
01:21:48the company, your shares must be transferred to her.
01:21:51Now it's time to sign.
01:21:53Bianca, we're all family.
01:21:55Why draw a line between us?
01:21:56It doesn't matter who holds the shares, as long as they're in the family.
01:22:00He's right, Bianca.
01:22:01Your father means no harm.
01:22:03We only want what's best for the company.
01:22:04Family?
01:22:05What a joke.
01:22:06When you were bullying my wife and my daughter, why didn't you say we were family then?
01:22:10Bianca, we were really wrong.
01:22:12Please forgive us this one time.
01:22:14Forgive you?
01:22:14Fine.
01:22:15As long as you get on your knees, kowtow and apologize, and promise never to appear
01:22:19in front of my wife again, we'll let you off.
01:22:21You-
01:22:21Bianca!
01:22:22In front of all these people, do you have to humiliate us?
01:22:25Humiliate you?
01:22:25When you were humiliating me, did you ever consider my feelings?
01:22:29But I'm still your father.
01:22:30Father?
01:22:31A man like you doesn't deserve to be my father.
01:22:34The moment you killed my mother with grief and brought this woman into our home, in my
01:22:39heart, I no longer had a father.
01:22:42Bianca Sterling, don't go too far.
01:22:44Don't forget, who raised you all these years?
01:22:47Lauren Sterling, have you no shame?
01:22:48How you've treated me all these years?
01:22:50How you treated my mother, and how you treated Ivy, you know better than anyone.
01:22:55For the rest of my life, I will never forgive you.
01:22:58Enough talk.
01:22:59Are you going to kneel or not?
01:23:01If not, sign the papers already.
01:23:03Signed in your dreams!
01:23:04Bianca Sterling, you think that by beating me, you've saved the company?
01:23:09I'm telling you, keep dreaming!
01:23:11What do you mean?
01:23:12I'll tell you the truth.
01:23:13Before the press conference, I already sold off every single share of the company.
01:23:19Ha ha ha, Bianca Sterling, so what if you won?
01:23:22Bianca Sterling, do you know why I hate you so much?
01:23:25Because you're just like your damn mother.
01:23:28You're disgusting!
01:23:30You dare hit me!
01:23:35Warren Sterling, who did you sell the company to?
01:23:38Tell me now.
01:23:39Bianca.
01:23:39This was the only thing my mother left for me.
01:23:42So what?
01:23:43It's already sold.
01:23:44Tell me who you sold it to!
01:23:47I bought it!
01:23:54Is it...
01:23:54Did he acquire Evercrest Group?
01:23:56What is Tristan Cole doing here?
01:24:01Tristan Cole, what are you doing here?
01:24:03It's such a big party today.
01:24:04Why shouldn't I be here?
01:24:06Mr. Tristan, you're finally here!
01:24:09We're in the same boat now!
01:24:10You can't just leave me hanging!
01:24:12Who says we're in the same boat?
01:24:13You already sold your company to me.
01:24:15To me, you're no longer of any use.
01:24:17What?
01:24:19But you said after you bought Evercrest Group, you'd still let me manage it!
01:24:23Mr. Tristan, you have to keep your word!
01:24:25Shut up!
01:24:26I never said such a thing!
01:24:28And even if I did, sorry!
01:24:29I've changed my mind!
01:24:31Ha ha ha!
01:24:31It was you!
01:24:32You've been behind all this!
01:24:34That's right!
01:24:35It was me!
01:24:36I loved you so much, yet you chose to marry that loser!
01:24:39Do you have any idea how much I hate you?
01:24:41Give me back my company!
01:24:42Give it back!
01:24:43Sure!
01:24:44Just spend a month with me, and Evercrest Group will be yours again!
01:24:54Where did this piece of trash come from?
01:24:56So damn noisy!
01:24:59You dare hit me?
01:25:04You're damn right I did!
01:25:06Kill him!
01:25:07Kill him now!
01:25:08Kill him now!
01:25:10Vincent!
01:25:13Daddy!
01:25:18I dare any of you to touch him!
01:25:26Grandpa!
01:25:27Grandpa!
01:25:33Mr. Drake, you're the richest man in Valoria, and our esteemed senior.
01:25:37But this is North Port.
01:25:38There's no need to defend the Jinx just to pick a fight with us.
01:25:43I, Victor Drake, have dominated the business world for years.
01:25:46I have mowed down anyone who dared to stand in my way.
01:25:49No one has ever dared to touch my family.
01:25:51And you are the first!
01:25:53Who the hell do you think you are?
01:25:55You think you're worthy of speaking to me?
01:25:57Family?
01:25:58She's just a bastard Bianca Sterling had with that loser!
01:26:01How could she be your family?
01:26:04Then let me tell you right now.
01:26:06Ivy Sterling is my granddaughter, and Vincent Drake is my own son.
01:26:12What?
01:26:12Vincent is really Mr. Drake's son?
01:26:14No way!
01:26:15How could that nobody possibly be the billionaire's son?
01:26:18Impossible!
01:26:19This can't be true!
01:26:20Mr. Drake, you're joking.
01:26:23You must be joking, right?
01:26:24You really have a death wish.
01:26:26Security!
01:26:27Seize this arrogant fool immediately!
01:26:30No way!
01:26:31This can't be real!
01:26:32Vincent, is Mr. Drake really your father?
01:26:34Tell me, what's your relationship with him?
01:26:39Vincent, what's your relationship with Mr. Drake?
01:26:43He's right.
01:26:44He is indeed my father.
01:26:47It's over!
01:26:48It's all over!
01:26:49I offended the wealthiest man, Mr. Drake!
01:26:51The Cole family is finished!
01:26:53Men!
01:26:53Take this scumbag, and drag him out of here!
01:26:56Cripple him, and not just him!
01:26:57The entire Cole family!
01:26:59Spare no one!
01:27:00Yes, sir!
01:27:01Mr. Drake, I was wrong!
01:27:02I was so wrong!
01:27:03Bianca, save me!
01:27:03Help me!
01:27:04You little rascal!
01:27:05After all these years, you finally admitted that I'm your father!
01:27:09Old man, I'm only doing this because you actually have a heart.
01:27:13For once.
01:27:13Or I'd never acknowledge you.
01:27:15So disrespectful!
01:27:16How dare you use that tone with me!
01:27:20Mr. Drake, are you really Vincent's biological father?
01:27:24Ha ha ha!
01:27:25Daughter-in-law!
01:27:26You should call me father-in-law!
01:27:28Father-in-law?
01:27:31See that?
01:27:31My daughter-in-law is much more sensible than you!
01:27:34Bianca, I'm your father!
01:27:35I'm begging you!
01:27:36Please forgive me!
01:27:37That's right, Bianca!
01:27:38We're your family!
01:27:39Please have mercy on us!
01:27:41Bianca, please!
01:27:41For the sake of us being sisters, don't hold this against us!
01:27:45If you turn your back on us, we'll have nothing, absolutely nothing left!
01:27:50You reap what you sow!
01:27:53My sweet daughter, let's go home!
