00:00:00Ah! You have ruined us!
00:00:03I will ruin you!
00:00:06Oh no! My baby!
00:00:19Oh my god, is that Bella?
00:00:30Bella, are you wearing diamonds to school? With an outsider?
00:00:41Do you not know that visitors aren't allowed on campus?
00:00:47Weren't you expelled? Why are you here?
00:00:50I...
00:00:55You think you have the power to expel, Selena?
00:00:58Who do you think you are?
00:01:00It wasn't me. It was Principal.
00:01:02Shut up!
00:01:04As long as I'm here, Selena will never be expelled.
00:01:07I know your place. You're just a poor civilian.
00:01:10Your words mean nothing.
00:01:13Eden, we have a problem.
00:01:16I know your place. You're just a poor civilian.
00:01:19Your words mean nothing.
00:01:21Elsa, you have no right to insult me.
00:01:24I'm not afraid of you anymore.
00:01:26Yeah.
00:01:27Bella's standing up for herself.
00:01:29That's my girl.
00:01:31Let's go to Anderson.
00:01:33But Moira's with Bella. She'll be fine. Why are you going?
00:01:36I want to see this for myself.
00:01:39Elsa, you have no right to insult me.
00:01:43I'm not afraid of you anymore.
00:01:45She has every right to insult you.
00:01:48She's the Condor's family there is.
00:01:50And not just insults.
00:01:52We're going to beat you up too.
00:01:54What are you going to do about it?
00:01:56I'm not afraid of you.
00:01:58If you try to hurt me, you'll pay the price.
00:02:01Pay the price?
00:02:03I'd like to know what price I have to pay.
00:02:14What are you doing?
00:02:15I'm your price.
00:02:17Who gave you the audacity?
00:02:19Ian said anyone dares harm Bella will never be forgiven.
00:02:24Moira, maybe just...
00:02:26Bella, don't worry.
00:02:27The Condor family is nothing compared to you.
00:02:31Elsa is the Condor family heiress.
00:02:34Ian works with them.
00:02:36We can't offend her.
00:02:38Bella, as Ian's wife, you are the most honorable woman in the world.
00:02:43You can erase the Condor family if you want.
00:02:49Erase the Condor family?
00:02:51Bella, where did you find this lunatic?
00:02:55This is getting hilarious, man.
00:02:58That's the best joke I've heard all year.
00:03:01Moira is my bodyguard.
00:03:02She's not a lunatic.
00:03:04Did you say this person is a bodyguard?
00:03:07Please have some respect.
00:03:09Bella, you have violated Anderson policies by bringing her here.
00:03:13Instructing her to harm classmates?
00:03:16You should be expelled per policy.
00:03:18Bringing Moira here was approved.
00:03:20Approved by the school, Elsa.
00:03:23Ian, it's only with you because you're carrying those children.
00:03:27You are nothing without them.
00:03:33Miss Bella, are you alright?
00:03:35We're, uh...
00:03:37Let it go.
00:03:38They've learned their lesson.
00:03:39Just take me now.
00:03:40Still bringing a violent person to class?
00:03:43Bella, you have violated school policies and must be punished.
00:03:46I didn't break any rules.
00:03:49The school approved this privilege.
00:03:52Call the security team.
00:03:54I declare on behalf of the Condor family that Bella has violated school rules and must face the consequences.
00:04:01Throw her out.
00:04:02Bella has been expelled for one month.
00:04:04I'm not...
00:04:08Stop it!
00:04:11No!
00:04:13I dare you to try!
00:04:16What are you waiting for?
00:04:18Have you forgotten who signs your paychecks?
00:04:23Stop it! Stop it!
00:04:24Don't do this to me!
00:04:27My belly hurts!
00:04:28My belly hurts!
00:04:52Bella!
00:04:53No!
00:04:54No!
00:04:55No!
00:04:56No!
00:04:57No!
00:04:58No!
00:05:00Are you okay?
00:05:01I'm fine.
00:05:03I just need some rest.
00:05:05Let's get you to the hospital.
00:05:07That's because of the children again, isn't it?
00:05:10Ian, do you care about me?
00:05:12Or just the kids?
00:05:13I said I'm fine, Ian.
00:05:15Just let me go.
00:05:16I need to go to class.
00:05:17Bella, you just...
00:05:20Bella, what's going on?
00:05:22Myra, stay with Bella.
00:05:23Ian, I cannot let a dangerous person onto campus.
00:05:26I have to...
00:05:27Enough, Elsa.
00:05:29Don't make things worse.
00:05:31What, do you think you own Anderson?
00:05:33I was just trying to protect the other students.
00:05:36Bella, what's wrong?
00:05:37You two, we're just getting started.
00:05:39The bullies still haven't been dealt with yet, Bella.
00:05:42Don't leave just yet.
00:05:44We weren't bullying Bella.
00:05:46She hit Elsa.
00:05:48See?
00:05:49You've been expelled.
00:05:52Who let you in here?
00:05:53Leave, now.
00:05:56This is my fault.
00:05:57Bella, I am so sorry.
00:05:59I promise that I'm gonna get everyone that hurts you out of Anderson.
00:06:06Ian, Bella's the one who has violated school policy by bringing this bodyguard.
00:06:11She's the one who should be expelled.
00:06:13Yeah, I think that's right.
00:06:15It's all Bella's fault.
00:06:17Get them out of here.
00:06:19Ian, no!
00:06:20You cannot do this to me.
00:06:22Think about your company.
00:06:23Don't you fear my father?
00:06:25Elsa, there's been a misunderstanding.
00:06:28The school approved my bodyguard.
00:06:31Don't...
00:06:32You liar!
00:06:34You are nothing but a...
00:06:35That's enough!
00:06:37Elsa, no special privileges have been approved by the principal and the board of directors.
00:06:42No way!
00:06:44No school decisions are made without approval of the Condor family.
00:06:48Oh really?
00:06:54As of now, I don't want any Condor family members involved at Anderson.
00:06:58I'm officially informing you that your family's board membership is revoked.
00:07:07Ian, you can't make decisions for the school.
00:07:10Actually, if you really think about it, I'm your best choice.
00:07:14Only I can help you.
00:07:15I'm your best choice.
00:07:16I'm your best choice.
00:07:18I am your best choice.
00:07:20I'm your best choice.
00:07:21I am your best choice.
00:07:23And I will.
00:07:25Dad, we've been removed from the board.
00:07:28The board has cut all ties with us.
00:07:31Our family business has dropped 10% overnight.
00:07:35Elsa, what the hell did you do?
00:07:36Dad, what's going on?
00:07:38Elsa, what is going on?
00:07:40You tell me, idiot.
00:07:41Idiot!
00:07:43Ian, what's going on?
00:07:45Don't worry, Bella.
00:07:48Let's go home.
00:07:52Elsa, it seems your best option is to apologize to Bella.
00:07:57I just got notified by your school.
00:07:59You've been expelled?
00:08:01Get your ass home immediately!
00:08:03Dad.
00:08:05Dad!
00:08:08It's over.
00:08:09Everything's over.
00:08:11How did this happen?
00:08:15What do we do, apologize to Bella?
00:08:17Apologize to that bitch?
00:08:19Never.
00:08:20Well then, what do we do?
00:08:22Do you have a better idea than apologizing?
00:08:25Evelyn Norman's hosting a gala at the same Siena Hotel tomorrow.
00:08:31That's it.
00:08:33Evelyn Norman, the most powerful woman in the world.
00:08:37If I can gain her favor, we can turn this whole thing around.
00:08:41And you do know her, right?
00:08:43You know, people say that her family owns the world's economy.
00:08:47And you've met her.
00:08:49I've seen her from across the room.
00:08:51She smiled at me.
00:08:53What an honor.
00:08:55Well, if I can gain her favor at the gala tomorrow, everyone will know that the Condor family has always been the Norman family's representatives.
00:09:03And then, they'll regret their decisions.
00:09:06Bella, I swear, I'll ruin you and take back what's rightfully mine.
00:09:12Ian will be mine again.
00:09:14Oh, Bella, sweetheart.
00:09:24Oh, I heard what happened at school today.
00:09:26Are you okay?
00:09:27I'm fine.
00:09:28Okay.
00:09:29Ian saved me.
00:09:30Mom, she needs her rest.
00:09:31Yes, that's right.
00:09:32Oh, sweetheart.
00:09:33You go and rest.
00:09:37Ian, solve this.
00:09:39I will not tolerate anyone bothering Bella.
00:09:45Whether you agree to it or not, at tomorrow night's banquet, I am going to announce that Bella will become the next Mrs. Norman.
00:09:53And everything I have will be hers.
00:09:59Okay, Ian.
00:10:00Think of the triplets.
00:10:01Okay, they are a miracle.
00:10:04You have to make a decision now.
00:10:06You're right.
00:10:07As a husband and a father, I will give Bella the power and honor that she deserves as Mrs. Norman.
00:10:14You're going to reveal your identity as a Norman?
00:10:18Okay, I am so excited.
00:10:19I'm going to tell everyone.
00:10:24Make the preparations.
00:10:25Okay.
00:10:27Bella has no idea the surprise that she's in for tomorrow.
00:10:30Tomorrow night, I'm going to propose to Bella.
00:10:36Bella, it's an honor to serve you.
00:10:38I prepare all the newest collection for you to choose from.
00:10:43Bella, our stylist is ready to serve you.
00:10:48Ian, why are we doing this?
00:10:52Because soon we're going to be attending my mother's yearly gala and I'm going to introduce you to everyone.
00:10:57My beautiful lady, let's start with your outfit.
00:11:02Please follow me.
00:11:04Lisa is America's number one stylist.
00:11:06Everyone in Hollywood works with her.
00:11:08You're going to love it.
00:11:09Trust me.
00:11:10Elsa, that's Media Mogul Madruk.
00:11:21And over there, I think that's real estate tycoon Carlton's.
00:11:25I can't believe they're here.
00:11:26Of course.
00:11:27This is Evelyn Norman's banquet.
00:11:29I want to cleanse an invitation from the Normans.
00:11:31They're all here for the Norman family.
00:11:34Elsa, let's go meet Evelyn.
00:11:37She's so selective.
00:11:39You have to think of Ian.
00:11:41What if he brings that bitch Bella to meet Evelyn instead of us?
00:11:45Don't worry.
00:11:46Look around.
00:11:48Bella would never fit into this upper class circle.
00:11:52That's true.
00:11:53She could only dream of being in a place like this.
00:12:02Bella?
00:12:03Oh, it's Ian.
00:12:05This is the first time he's brought a date.
00:12:07Oh my god, she's pregnant.
00:12:09Look at Ian's eyes.
00:12:10He's clearly in love with her.
00:12:12Oh, she's so sweet.
00:12:14No wonder she won the heart of the world's most reserved man.
00:12:17Ian, why didn't you tell me you were coming?
00:12:21And why did you bring her?
00:12:22The one who keeps throwing herself at the Norman family staff?
00:12:26It seems that the punishment for the Condor family wasn't enough.
00:12:30You still haven't learned your lesson.
00:12:32Don't worry, Elsa.
00:12:34You have Evan and Norman on your side.
00:12:36Compared to the Norman family, Ian is nothing.
00:12:40Let go of Ian, you bitch.
00:12:43Ian, why are you so mean to me?
00:12:49Look, if you don't stop trying to hurt Bella, you will lose everything.
00:12:54Simple as that.
00:12:55Why do you keep defending her?
00:12:58She's nothing but a worthless whore.
00:13:01Elsa, how can you say such things?
00:13:04Bella's my stepsister and I can vouch for her.
00:13:08She has always been cruel and deceitful and manipulative.
00:13:12She's the worst.
00:13:15That's not true.
00:13:16Ian, I'm from the Condor family and I have Evelyn by my side.
00:13:23The one standing beside you should be me.
00:13:28Elsa, why do you keep trying to get rid of me and replace me?
00:13:33Can't you tell Ian doesn't love you?
00:13:36And he's in love with you?
00:13:38You know Ian's only with you because of that belly.
00:13:42It's true.
00:13:46Everyone knows it's because of the children.
00:13:48Bella, why are you suddenly so sad?
00:13:51Admit it, Bella.
00:13:53You know it's only because of the children.
00:13:55Bella, don't listen to anything they say.
00:13:59Elsa, even without me and the children, he still wouldn't choose you.
00:14:07Ian doesn't love you.
00:14:09Respect yourself more.
00:14:15Bella, you've been insecure because of the pregnancy, haven't you?
00:14:19You think that I just love you for that?
00:14:21Is that not the case?
00:14:23Bella.
00:14:25Bella is the mother of my children.
00:14:28And my chosen wife.
00:14:31No one will hurt her.
00:14:34Ian.
00:14:35Bella, I cherish and care for you.
00:14:38Bella, I love you.
00:14:41In fact...
00:14:50Bella, will you marry me?
00:14:52Oh my god.
00:14:53Say yes, Bella!
00:14:55Bella.
00:14:56Yes.
00:14:57The most eligible bachelor maid is Moob.
00:15:00Marry me, Bella.
00:15:01Yes.
00:15:02Yes.
00:15:03That ring.
00:15:04Is that the pink star?
00:15:06The pink star?
00:15:07That is the queen's gem.
00:15:10There's only one in the world.
00:15:12What?
00:15:13That precious diamond for Bella?
00:15:16Why is this happening to me?
00:15:18Bella, thank you for saying yes.
00:15:22No, Ian.
00:15:23Thank you for respecting me.
00:15:25I object.
00:15:27Elsa, no matter how much you hate this.
00:15:31For everything I cherish, I will not back down this time.
00:15:35Everything you cherish?
00:15:37You mean this big ring?
00:15:40You're nothing but a gold digger, Bella.
00:15:43Elsa, it's not even about the diamond.
00:15:47I cherish Ian for his love, his protection, his support, his care, and his love for me.
00:15:58I know you may root everything in money and status, but I'm fighting for everything I cherish.
00:16:09So sweet.
00:16:11Yes, queen?
00:16:12No!
00:16:14Bella, you filthy bitch!
00:16:16You don't deserve Ian!
00:16:23Elsa!
00:16:24Where is your manor?
00:16:25God!
00:16:26So rude!
00:16:27That is not upper class at all.
00:16:29Elsa, that was way over the line.
00:16:31All of you, shut up!
00:16:33You've forgotten whose banquet this is?
00:16:36This is the Norman's Family legendary banquet hosted by Evelyn Norman herself.
00:16:42And she will be here any minute now.
00:16:44The Condor family has always been the Norman family's representatives.
00:16:48If any of you offend me, I will erase you from the upper class.
00:16:53Elsa, you've done enough.
00:16:55Elsa, do you really believe that you represent the Norman family?
00:16:58Your family is just used to avoid attention.
00:17:01Elsa, have you ever met the head of the Norman family?
00:17:10Perhaps it's time for me to reintroduce myself.
00:17:12Be careful, Ian.
00:17:14No one wants to offend the Norman family.
00:17:17Look around.
00:17:18Everyone in the world might be afraid of the Norman family, but I'm not.
00:17:23This is your last chance, Ian.
00:17:25Think carefully before you speak.
00:17:29Bella, don't worry.
00:17:31I'm sorry.
00:17:32I'm not worried.
00:17:33I just want you to know, no matter what happens, whether it's poverty or wealth, sickness or health, I will always be here standing by your side.
00:17:46Think about your company, Ian.
00:17:48My family could destroy you at any second.
00:17:51Elsa, you're so proud of your family.
00:17:54But I hereby declare that the Condor family is removed from the upper class.
00:17:59Out of the upper class.
00:18:02Out of the upper class?
00:18:03Ian, you're crazy.
00:18:04Who do you think you are?
00:18:06You only have one choice.
00:18:10Abandon this tramp and her bastard children.
00:18:14I want them dead!
00:18:16Who gives you the right to do this at my banquet?
00:18:29It's Evelyn Logan.
00:18:34She's angry.
00:18:36Act up for ruining her event.
00:18:39Mrs. Norman, please, you have no idea what happened.
00:18:43This poor girl, she tried to make a scene at your event.
00:18:47But don't worry, I already taught her a lesson.
00:18:50Oh, so it was you who made her look like this?
00:18:55That's right.
00:18:56Are you okay?
00:19:06Who is this girl?
00:19:08Mrs. Norman is so fond of her.
00:19:10Evelyn, what's Bella's relationship with you?
00:19:14Mom, I'm fine.
00:19:17Mom?
00:19:19Why is Bella calling Mrs. Norman Mom?
00:19:21My God, who is this girl?
00:19:23Remember, Ian said he wasn't scared of the Norman family.
00:19:26Could it be?
00:19:28Ian, it's time you tell Bella the truth.
00:19:32Bella, I have an announcement to make.
00:19:36I haven't been entirely honest about my identity.
00:19:42Please don't be mad at me.
00:19:45I trust you. I just want to know the truth.
00:19:47For years, I have hidden my identity and my heritage because I wanted to make a name for myself.
00:19:57Because I wanted to become successful on my own.
00:19:59But for you, Bella, for our family, for our future, it's time that I tell the truth.
00:20:09What does he mean by that?
00:20:11Could it be?
00:20:13Yes!
00:20:15Finally!
00:20:17Ian, tell him who you really are.
00:20:19My full name is Ian Nathan Norman.
00:20:23What?
00:20:24What?
00:20:26Norman.
00:20:27Like that Norman?
00:20:29That's right.
00:20:30Ian is the heir to the Norman family.
00:20:34And you, Bella, are going to become the legendary Mrs. Norman.
00:20:41Mrs. Norman.
00:20:42Me.
00:20:43Me.
00:20:44Are you sure?
00:20:45Bella, I'm completely sure.
00:20:47In fact, I've organized this entire banquet to announce that I, Evelyn Norman,
00:20:54announcing, making it official, that my son, Ian Norman, is the next representative of the Norman family
00:21:01to be joined by Bella in marriage to become the next Mrs. Norman.
00:21:10Oh, my God.
00:21:11This is big news.
00:21:13This will shake every upper-class family and make the headlines.
00:21:17Being Mrs. Norman comes with tremendous responsibilities.
00:21:22I...
00:21:24I don't know.
00:21:25Bella, I believe in you.
00:21:27Now you just need to believe in yourself.
00:21:29No, absolutely not.
00:21:32Please, Evelyn.
00:21:34Bella doesn't deserve to be Mrs. Norman.
00:21:36She'll disgrace the entire family.
00:21:39Please, reconsider.
00:21:41Elsa, I almost forgot about you.
00:21:43You are rude and ungrateful, and you're always bullying Bella.
00:21:49Ian, it's time to teach the Condor family a lesson they won't soon forget.
00:21:54Leo, I want the Condor family bankrupt.
00:22:01In three minutes.
00:22:03Oh, I've been waiting for this.
00:22:06All departments, it's time.
00:22:10Execute the plan.
00:22:11Ian, you're just trying to scare me.
00:22:15Even the Norman family can't destroy us in three minutes.
00:22:19Ian, isn't three minutes a bit much?
00:22:24Ian, as heir to the Norman family, we could be great allies.
00:22:29I should be the next Mrs. Norman.
00:22:32Seems like everybody always forgets just how powerful the Norman family is.
00:22:37That's it. Three minutes are up.
00:22:49Elsa, you fool!
00:22:51Who do you think you are to offend the Normans?
00:22:54Our assets are being attacked globally.
00:22:57The Norman family?
00:23:00Bankrupt us?
00:23:01It's over, Elsa.
00:23:04There's no Condor family anymore.
00:23:10Three minutes to destroy an entire Condor empire.
00:23:14It's terrifying.
00:23:17Bella, what's wrong?
00:23:19Relax, Ian.
00:23:21I think the babies are kicking.
00:23:22Bella, what's on your mind sweetheart?
00:23:30Are you still thinking about the banquet?
00:23:33Being Mrs. Norman feels like a huge responsibility.
00:23:39I don't know if I can handle it.
00:23:42Bella, you are sweet and honest.
00:23:46And honest.
00:23:47And you represent the Norman family perfectly.
00:23:52You are a shining light in this family.
00:23:55Ian's right.
00:23:56You are the perfect choice.
00:23:58But I don't know if people will accept me.
00:24:03I have some good news.
00:24:05Bella, you're trending.
00:24:07Look, everyone on social media is talking about you and they love you.
00:24:10Like this one.
00:24:11I like this girl.
00:24:12She earned her spot at Anderson through hard work and paid her own tuition.
00:24:17She deserves this.
00:24:19And this one.
00:24:20I wish I could have witnessed that proposal.
00:24:22They're perfect for each other.
00:24:24You can just see the love in their eyes.
00:24:26Bella is such a sincere and sweet girl.
00:24:28I love her.
00:24:35Hey, you two.
00:24:36Could you think about the single people in the room for a second?
00:24:38Nobody can resist my sweet Bella.
00:24:41Leonard, keep reading.
00:24:42I want to hear all of them.
00:24:48What's wrong?
00:24:50Something's up.
00:24:59How dare they?
00:25:02I've worked so hard as a single mother for Bella.
00:25:05Bella, I've entered everything.
00:25:08I'm dying.
00:25:10Bella, why won't you come see us?
00:25:13After her father died, I took care of Bella.
00:25:19I paid all the bills.
00:25:22Bella, I know Mom and I are poor, but we are still your family.
00:25:28Why don't you just come and see us?
00:25:30Bella is a gold digger.
00:25:32Bella is a gold digger.
00:25:34She married into a wealthy family and won't even help her struggling stepmother and stepsister.
00:25:39No, guys, Bella, it's not like that.
00:25:43You don't care about Bella, otherwise you wouldn't be out here crying.
00:25:48Mom.
00:25:49I'm sick.
00:25:50We...
00:25:51We can't get a hold of Bella.
00:25:52We just want to see you, Bella.
00:25:53Selina, turn it off.
00:25:54I don't want Bella to be misunderstood.
00:25:55Okay, Mom.
00:25:56Ah, these fools believed everything.
00:25:57Look, they're all attacking Bella right now.
00:25:58Perfect.
00:25:59If she doesn't give us enough money, I will keep pressing charges.
00:26:00Enjoy.
00:26:01Bye.
00:26:02Bye.
00:26:03Bye.
00:26:04Bye.
00:26:05Bye.
00:26:06Bye.
00:26:07Bye.
00:26:08Bye.
00:26:09Bye.
00:26:10Bye.
00:26:12Bye.
00:26:13Bye.
00:26:14Bye.
00:26:15Bye.
00:26:16Bye.
00:26:17Bye.
00:26:18Bye.
00:26:19Bye.
00:26:20Bye.
00:26:21Bye.
00:26:22Bye.
00:26:23Bye.
00:26:24Bye.
00:26:25Bye.
00:26:26Bye.
00:26:28Bye.
00:26:29Bye.
00:26:31Bye.
00:26:32Ian, the public is starting to turn on Bella.
00:26:35You get ahead of this right now, or we will have a massive PR disaster.
00:26:39Don't worry, I'll deal with this.
00:26:42Leo is talking to study.
00:26:46des筋 són
00:26:48One hundred million, Selina? I don't have that! What are you thinking?
00:27:03Pay up, or I'll raise the stakes. Don't forget, I have photos of you and Diddy.
00:27:09How would the world feel about a scandalous Norman lady?
00:27:16What should I do?
00:27:18Ian.
00:27:24Are you ready? The Norman family stock's dropping, we need to act now.
00:27:29Ian, we should cancel the wedding. I don't want to drag down the Norman family anymore. Please, don't make a mistake.
00:27:38No. Bella, you promised to stand by me no matter what. And I promised to protect you at all costs.
00:27:45Ian, I'm not worth it.
00:27:47Nothing is going to change.
00:27:49Leo, what do you have?
00:27:51This contains evidence of Annie embezzling your family's assets after your parents passed.
00:27:58It also has proof of a criminal record and your medical record, which shows history of abuse.
00:28:09No one is ever going to hurt you again, Della. And I'll make sure that they know the truth.
00:28:14Ian, you've been investigating this. You've done so much for me.
00:28:18Ian knew that Annie was going to try and pull something, so he did everything he could to try and put protections in place for you.
00:28:25Yet you all teamed up to scare me just now.
00:28:29How else could I see this adorable side of you?
00:28:32Ian.
00:28:35They are your family, Bella. So you decide how you want to deal with them.
00:28:40If you want to let them go, I can solve this another way.
00:28:44No, Ian. They have hurt me for far too long. And now they're trying to hurt my children?
00:28:51I'll handle this. They're going to pay for what they have done.
00:28:59Well, look who it is.
00:29:05My poor Bella.
00:29:07I almost didn't recognize you in those fancy clothes.
00:29:11You two haven't changed a bit.
00:29:13What's that supposed to mean?
00:29:15You little bitch.
00:29:17How dare you look down on me?
00:29:19Bella, do you think marrying a rich man makes you better?
00:29:22I swear to you, for as long as I'm alive, you will never have peace.
00:29:36Bitch, I will kill you.
00:29:38Selena, let's get the money first and then we'll handle her.
00:29:42Bella, hand over the money that we agreed upon.
00:29:46Sorry. I don't have any.
00:29:50What did you just say?
00:29:52I said I don't have any money.
00:29:56You two won't get a penny from me.
00:30:00You are asking for it!
00:30:02Stop!
00:30:03What are you doing?
00:30:04Ian will come after you for this.
00:30:08Remember that time at St. Santa Hotel?
00:30:12You want that to happen again?
00:30:14What if we release this to the public?
00:30:18That's not true.
00:30:20I-
00:30:21A scandalous Norman lady.
00:30:23With the Missy private life.
00:30:25Oh, the Norman family will be so ashamed.
00:30:29And they'll kick you out right on the street.
00:30:33Bella, hand over the money or you will lose everything.
00:30:37Maybe you should check the news from today.
00:30:46Annie Swift exposed for child abuse.
00:30:51Annie Swift criminal record uncovered.
00:30:56Police are launching an investigation into Annie Swift and daughter Selena.
00:31:01Mom, how could they find the evidence?
00:31:05Everybody knows.
00:31:06They're calling us snakes.
00:31:08They keep saying that we scammed them and they're going to retaliate.
00:31:12Mom, we are done.
00:31:14No.
00:31:15No.
00:31:16How is this happening?
00:31:17Bella, did you do this?
00:31:18How could you?
00:31:19We're family.
00:31:20Oh, I just used your own tactics against you.
00:31:25Oh, and by the way, the house that you're living in right now and all your accounts,
00:31:30all the money in them, all belong to me.
00:31:34My father gave it all to me.
00:31:37The courts will be taking action soon.
00:31:40They'll make sure that I get everything I'm entitled to.
00:31:44You have three days.
00:31:46Mom, I've lost my degree.
00:31:49I've lost my house.
00:31:50I've lost my money.
00:31:52I have lost everything.
00:31:54You little trim.
00:31:56Do you think we will let you get away with this?
00:32:01No, you cannot do this to me.
00:32:05Stop.
00:32:06Ian will destroy you for this.
00:32:09You have ruined us.
00:32:12And I will ruin you.
00:32:15Oh, no.
00:32:17My baby.
00:32:19How dare you use the master bathroom without my permission.
00:32:32I'm so sorry.
00:32:33I was coughing so badly.
00:32:34It was an emergency.
00:32:35It will never happen again.
00:32:36Get out of my house.
00:32:38Ms. Lowe, I know this is unacceptable, but please don't fire me.
00:32:43Don't touch me.
00:32:44You're disgusting.
00:32:45What are you doing?
00:32:48My maid used my master bathroom without my permission.
00:32:53Can I not get upset at her?
00:32:55Paula, you were once just like us.
00:33:00How can you treat people like this?
00:33:02Because she's now my daughter.
00:33:04This one again.
00:33:06Mom, you came back.
00:33:08If I hadn't come back, I wouldn't know that my daughter was being bullied in her own home.
00:33:17What did you do to Lola?
00:33:19It was your daughter who bullied my mom.
00:33:22We were defending ourselves.
00:33:25Mom, I was just explaining that this bathroom is the master bathroom and that she started accusing me of discrimination.
00:33:31And then she pushed me when I tried to explain.
00:33:34How dare you push Lola?
00:33:36Lisa, let's not waste any time.
00:33:38Let's just call the police.
00:33:43Mr. Damon, this is the latest DNA report and Ms. Clark's personal details.
00:33:50She's not my daughter.
00:33:52Then why did it match last time?
00:33:54Did someone fake the result?
00:33:57This is Alice.
00:33:59Oh, it's just a scar from when I was little.
00:34:03I draw on it sometimes to make it look better.
00:34:05Get rid of these.
00:34:12Ma'am, please don't call the police.
00:34:14It was all my fault.
00:34:15Please don't call the police.
00:34:17Mom, it's okay.
00:34:19Just if they apologize to me.
00:34:21You see that?
00:34:22You see how generous Lola is?
00:34:24Apologize to her and I'll let you off.
00:34:27We apologize.
00:34:29Mom, we didn't do anything wrong.
00:34:32She should be the one apologizing.
00:34:35If this is how it goes, Fiona, you won't get a single dime this month.
00:34:41Carter, call the police.
00:34:42Ma'am, please don't call the police.
00:34:44Alice didn't mean it.
00:34:46Mom, don't beg them.
00:34:48We did nothing wrong.
00:34:49Mom!
00:34:54Mom!
00:34:55The patient needs surgery immediately.
00:34:57If the aneurysm bursts, she was suffering severe internal bleeding, which could be fatal.
00:35:03The surgery is going to cost $250,000.
00:35:06Where do I get that money?
00:35:08Will she be okay?
00:35:10The doctor said we'll need surgery this week or we'll lose her.
00:35:16We'll schedule it then.
00:35:18Don't worry about it.
00:35:20Don't worry about it.
00:35:22I'll take care of it.
00:35:31Mom, you're spoiling me.
00:35:33Oh, silly.
00:35:34You are my most precious baby.
00:35:36I'd give you my whole world.
00:35:40If it weren't for me being so careless, you wouldn't have suffered so many years.
00:35:46Mom, it wasn't that bad.
00:35:49Stop blaming yourself.
00:35:51It hurts me to see you like this.
00:35:56Lisa's finally recovered from all that guilt.
00:35:59Maybe I should keep things as it is before gathering more evidence.
00:36:02Honey, just look how sweet her daughter is.
00:36:06Dad, what's wrong?
00:36:08Nothing.
00:36:09Nothing.
00:36:10It's just been so long since I've seen Lisa this happy.
00:36:15Who are you really?
00:36:17Emily.
00:36:18Why are you pretending to be my daughter?
00:36:24What's wrong?
00:36:25You look pale.
00:36:27My mom's surgery cost $250,000.
00:36:31I'll never have that much money.
00:36:33Isn't Benjamin a trust fund baby?
00:36:35Ask him for help.
00:36:36Do I really have to involve him?
00:36:46Benjamin.
00:36:48Are you free today?
00:36:49Can I go talk to you about something?
00:36:53Okay.
00:36:55I'll come by after work.
00:36:56Robin and I will meet you later.
00:37:03Seize this opportunity.
00:37:06You got it.
00:37:07I'll come.
00:37:21Dad!
00:37:22Uncle Carter, what brings you here?
00:37:24Lola is managing the company so well that the two of us could soon be retired.
00:37:29Carter.
00:37:30Carter, didn't you say Lola was too young to step up?
00:37:35That was before I got to know her.
00:37:38Dad, Uncle Carter, there's no rush.
00:37:40Please sit down, let me bring you some water.
00:37:49Robin, you'll lose consciousness within 24 hours.
00:37:53Don't worry, your wife and your daughter
00:37:56are in good hands.
00:38:00Darling, you're so sweet.
00:38:04Mrs. White, I...
00:38:07Sweetheart, you can tell me anything.
00:38:11Is it Benjamin again?
00:38:13I'm actually here to apologize.
00:38:15You see, Benjamin has decided to marry Alice,
00:38:18and I don't want to be the other one in their relationship.
00:38:21Maybe we should just call off the engagement.
00:38:25No, there's no way he's marrying that bitch.
00:38:29I don't even know about this.
00:38:31I overheard it.
00:38:32Alice said she would come over tonight and inform you about their wedding.
00:38:36In her dreams.
00:38:39Don't worry, I'll help you.
00:38:42Benjamin is like any other man, after all.
00:38:45Oh, you're so innocent.
00:38:47Just work with me tonight.
00:38:50Okay Carrie, I'll do whatever you say.
00:38:53Mr. Damon, turns out that Ms. Lola and Mr. Carter Damon do have a very close relationship.
00:39:03When will my DNA results with Alice be out?
00:39:06It's been expedited.
00:39:08The results are in.
00:39:11It confirms your biological relationship with Alice.
00:39:17Mr. Damon, are you alright?
00:39:19Where is my daughter Alice?
00:39:21Where is my daughter right now?
00:39:23Mrs. Alice's mother is hospitalized.
00:39:25She's probably there right now.
00:39:27I want you to grave that report and find us at the hospital right away.
00:39:31Yes, Mr. Damon.
00:39:38Are you here to see Benjamin?
00:39:41Yes.
00:39:42He's in his room.
00:39:44But he's a little busy right now.
00:39:46He knows I'm coming to see him.
00:39:49This again.
00:39:51Go.
00:39:52See for yourself.
00:39:53His room is down the hallway to the left.
00:40:01You get it now?
00:40:10Lola and my son are meant to be.
00:40:13You're just his toy.
00:40:18What are you doing?
00:40:30What did you do to me?
00:40:33What did you do to me?
00:40:34What did you do to me?
00:40:35Let go of me!
00:40:40Here.
00:40:41Try this tea.
00:40:42I'm thinking of buying the company.
00:40:50Let go of me!
00:40:55Get out!
00:40:56What did you do to me?
00:40:58Benjamin, do you even see how rich and sexy I am?
00:41:01What does Alice have that I don't?
00:41:03You are nothing compared to her.
00:41:05I don't think I'm going to let this go just because you're the daemon's daughter.
00:41:09If you ever try this again, you're done.
00:41:12You'll regret this.
00:41:15I don't think I've ever touched me there.
00:41:16I'm just going to let you know.
00:41:17Alice, pull yourself together.
00:41:18That bastard is not worth your tears.
00:41:19There are more important things in life.
00:41:20Hello?
00:41:21Hello?
00:41:23Hello?
00:41:24Hello.
00:41:25Hello?
00:41:27Hello?
00:41:28Hi, I'm so sorry.
00:41:29I didn't know what I'm doing.
00:41:30I'm so sorry.
00:41:31Ha ha ha ha ha.
00:41:33There are more important things in life.
00:41:35Alice, pull yourself together.
00:41:40That bastard is not worth your tears.
00:41:43There are more important things in life.
00:41:48Hello?
00:41:50Don't touch her!
00:41:52I'm coming over right now!
00:42:01Don't touch her!
00:42:03Come back with cash if you want treatment.
00:42:05This is a private hospital.
00:42:07We need to make space for other patients who pay their bills.
00:42:10Why are you doing this?
00:42:11Ms. Damon and Ms. Lola are on the board of this hospital.
00:42:14If you can't afford treatment, you need to leave.
00:42:16My mom is dying!
00:42:18Then pay the bills.
00:42:20This is a private hospital, not a charity.
00:42:24Get off of her!
00:42:28Ms. Damon, please.
00:42:31Give me more time.
00:42:32I'll pay the bills, I promise.
00:42:35Mom, if she promises to stay away from Benjamin, then maybe we can give her one more chance.
00:42:45All right.
00:42:47As long as that's what you want.
00:42:49Lola, as long as you let my mother stay, I'll do all the things you ask.
00:42:52You don't have to do anything.
00:42:55Lola, as long as you let my mom stay, I'll do all the things you ask.
00:42:59You don't have to do anything.
00:43:01Dad, what are you doing here?
00:43:02Don't worry.
00:43:03I will arrange the best doctors for your mother's surgery.
00:43:06Robin, are you out of your mind?
00:43:09This girl seduced your daughter's fiancee and you're protecting her?
00:43:12Dad.
00:43:13Don't call me that.
00:43:21Mom, Dad must have fainted after hearing what Alice has done.
00:43:26If anything happens to my husband, I'll kill you.
00:43:29Lisa, Lisa.
00:43:30Why hasn't the drug kicked in yet?
00:43:36Robin, it's okay.
00:43:37Don't worry yourself over that little bitch.
00:43:39No.
00:43:40No.
00:43:41That's how I don't.
00:43:46Robin!
00:43:47Someone call a doctor!
00:43:51Remember what you promised.
00:43:58Once the surgery is done, don't let me see you ever again.
00:44:02And don't try anything funny or someone dies.
00:44:23So, she is the real Alice.
00:44:28Alice, I'm sorry.
00:44:37Something came up earlier.
00:44:39It doesn't matter anymore.
00:44:40Alice, just...
00:44:41Don't touch me!
00:44:43You make me sick.
00:44:45What's happened?
00:44:46Would you just talk to me?
00:44:48We're done.
00:44:50Completely done.
00:44:51Alice.
00:44:54Do you not understand English?
00:44:56Get out!
00:44:57Of course, you always get to decide for us.
00:45:00Benjamin!
00:45:00Are you here alone?
00:45:17Let me join you.
00:45:18Leave me alone.
00:45:21Benjamin, don't push me away.
00:45:24You know, I'm good in bed.
00:45:26Much better than Alice.
00:45:27Then go screw somebody else!
00:45:30Leave!
00:45:31What does that dirty whore Alice have that I don't?
00:45:33You keep her name out of your filthy mouth.
00:45:36You understand?
00:45:40Oh, if I can't have him, no one else shall.
00:45:43Benjamin probably hates me now.
00:45:55We're from different worlds.
00:45:57He shouldn't waste his time on me.
00:46:02I'm sorry, Mom, but I haven't figured out how to pay for your surgery.
00:46:06Why am I so useless?
00:46:08You didn't raise a daughter to be such a failure.
00:46:10Doctor, what's going on?
00:46:18My husband has always been so healthy.
00:46:21Mr. Damon has been poisoned.
00:46:23Poisoned?
00:46:24How is that possible?
00:46:26How do we save him?
00:46:28The only option is a blood transfusion, but Mr. Damon is type P, a very rare type of blood.
00:46:34And we don't have any in the blood bank.
00:46:37Lola is type P.
00:46:39I'm sorry, Mrs. Damon, but Miss Damon is type A.
00:46:44No, she's Alice.
00:46:45Alice is type P.
00:46:48I'm type P.
00:46:50I can transfuse my blood to Mr. Damon.
00:46:53Under one condition.
00:46:55Name it.
00:46:56What do you want?
00:46:56What is it that you arrange and pay for my mother's surgery?
00:47:03Now, deal.
00:47:04Consider it done.
00:47:13Say it again so that bitch is Alice Damon!
00:47:16Don't worry.
00:47:18I'll make sure you're the only Alice Damon.
00:47:20Alice Damon.
00:47:26After we get rid of the mom and the daughter, I'll call a board meeting and make sure you
00:47:32get everything as heiress of the Damon family.
00:47:36Mrs. Damon, here's the DNA test results.
00:47:58Alice.
00:48:01That's Alice.
00:48:03Alice is my daughter.
00:48:07Robin, what have I done?
00:48:11How dare you do this to my daughter?
00:48:13You ill-mannered lowborn.
00:48:15You're still denying it?
00:48:17If you like the wine so much.
00:48:19Have a taste yourself!
00:48:20Alice!
00:48:26Alice!
00:48:26My Alice!
00:48:28I'm so sorry!
00:48:30I'm so sorry!
00:48:32Carter?
00:48:32Don't you dare touch her!
00:48:47Miss Lady
00:48:54What's wrong?
00:48:56Did Mr. Damien say
00:48:57No, Alice
00:48:58They took Alice
00:49:01Lola, I've already ended things with Benjamin
00:49:07What more do you want?
00:49:09What more do I want?
00:49:10I want you dead
00:49:11Killing someone over a man is really not worth it
00:49:14Let me go and I promise to stay away from him
00:49:17Bitch, here's the thing
00:49:19As long as you live, I'll always be in the shadow
00:49:21Stop it
00:49:23Leave the golden goose alone
00:49:26You're too cheap to cover the costs
00:49:28Who are you?
00:49:31Why are you doing this?
00:49:33My dear niece, you don't recognize me?
00:49:38I got rid of you when you were four
00:49:40Of course you wouldn't recognize me
00:49:42You seem surprised
00:49:44Let me fill you in
00:49:45You're the real daughter of the Damien family
00:49:48How is this possible?
00:49:51If you behave
00:49:52And once I get everything I want
00:49:55I might tell you more about it
00:49:57Move!
00:50:02If you ain't a finger on her
00:50:03I'm gonna make your life a living hell
00:50:04Oh look, it's the White Knight and the Queen
00:50:08Carter, what do you want?
00:50:10Just take it from me
00:50:11Leave Alice alone
00:50:12Lisa, slow down
00:50:14Let's talk about things one at a time
00:50:17You're the one who poisoned Robin
00:50:18Well, Miss Lola here did help a little
00:50:22Why?
00:50:23Robin's your brother
00:50:24Why are you doing this?
00:50:25Let me tell you why
00:50:26Because our father always favored him
00:50:28Because he wanted to give his granddaughter
00:50:30The ownership of the entire Damien group
00:50:32When she was only four
00:50:34But I'm also his son
00:50:35Why couldn't he see me?
00:50:38Me!
00:50:39So you kidnapped my daughter?
00:50:43Oh yes
00:50:45And the poor old man suffered a heart attack
00:50:48Because of how sad he was
00:50:50You have no idea how happy that made
00:50:53You monster
00:50:55I'm in a good mood
00:50:59Let's have some fun, why don't we?
00:51:03Lola
00:51:03This man has humiliated you time and again
00:51:08Don't you want to get back at him?
00:51:12Oh yes
00:51:13I can't wait
00:51:14Benjamin
00:51:20Why don't you crawl over on your knees?
00:51:23Then I might let her go
00:51:24Benjamin, no!
00:51:25Don't listen to her!
00:51:27He's fine
00:51:27Come over, puppy
00:51:30If you want your treat
00:51:31No, Benjamin!
00:51:35Don't believe her!
00:51:36Shut up!
00:51:37Don't hurt him!
00:51:38Benjamin
00:51:38If you love her so much
00:51:41Crawl over
00:51:42Do it!
00:51:45Lola
00:51:46Don't do anything rash
00:51:47Look at you, Benjamin
00:51:55You are so proud
00:51:56But who's crawling like a dog now?
00:51:59Benjamin, stop!
00:52:00Please, stop!
00:52:01That's enough!
00:52:02Cut to the chase
00:52:03Alright, Lola
00:52:05My sister-in-law's getting upset
00:52:07Let's get down to business
00:52:09Sign this document
00:52:14And I'll let her go
00:52:17Oh
00:52:17Alright, I'll sign
00:52:22Lisa, don't!
00:52:25Alice
00:52:26Your father and I would give up everything for you
00:52:29I won't let these criminals have the daming group
00:52:33No!
00:52:36No!
00:52:37Alice, you hurt!
00:52:38Okay
00:52:38No one's going anywhere
00:52:41Get them!
00:52:41You slice
00:52:46Idiots
00:52:47You're hurt!
00:52:52Why would you do this?
00:53:01Because I would do anything for you
00:53:03Yeah, because
00:53:05I don't know
00:53:11Mom
00:53:12The doctor said the surgery will be soon
00:53:15How are you feeling?
00:53:22Me?
00:53:23Oh, um
00:53:24Thanks for asking
00:53:25I'm okay
00:53:26Doctor, is the surgery now?
00:53:28It should be
00:53:29But
00:53:30What's wrong?
00:53:31We're running low on blood storage at the hospital
00:53:33We can't risk it
00:53:35But we also shouldn't wait
00:53:37I can help
00:53:44I'm type O negative
00:53:46Fiona can use my blood
00:53:48Prepare for the surgery
00:53:51Now
00:53:52Yes, Mrs. Damon
00:53:54Thank you
00:53:56Mrs. Damon
00:53:58What?
00:53:59Oh dear
00:54:05How can I
00:54:05Alice is the demon's daughter?
00:54:08We're done
00:54:09I'm done
00:54:11After everything I did to her
00:54:12Damn it!
00:54:13She must hate me now
00:54:14Son
00:54:16She's your girlfriend
00:54:18Tell me
00:54:18What can I do to gain her forgiveness?
00:54:20I've gotten off on the wrong foot with my future daughter-in-law
00:54:23Mom!
00:54:23Seriously?
00:54:24You were on your own
00:54:25I'm not even sure if she's happy with me
00:54:29Mom!
00:54:41You're awake!
00:54:43How are you feeling?
00:54:46Lucy
00:54:46Have I been asleep a long time?
00:54:50Yes
00:54:50You've been in a coma for a couple of weeks
00:54:52But Mom
00:54:54Your surgery was really successful
00:54:56Really?
00:54:59Yes
00:54:59Oh Alice
00:55:01Mrs. Damon
00:55:06Can I help you?
00:55:08Fiona
00:55:09I'm so sorry
00:55:10About everything
00:55:11I was mean
00:55:13I was repulsive
00:55:14And I hurt you
00:55:15Sorry you had to tolerate so much
00:55:18Mrs. Damon
00:55:21My mom just woke up
00:55:23She needs to rest
00:55:24I know I've done terrible things to you
00:55:27And I wouldn't dare ask for your forgiveness right away
00:55:30But
00:55:30Please
00:55:32Give me a chance
00:55:33As your mother
00:55:34What are you saying?
00:55:37Who are you and Alice?
00:55:38Mom!
00:55:39Don't move!
00:55:39Your stitches!
00:55:41Fiona
00:55:42You should rest
00:55:43I'll come back tomorrow
00:55:44Alice?
00:55:52Your father wants to organize a ball in your name
00:55:56So everyone in the city can meet you and Fiona
00:55:58He wants to thank Fiona for raising you so well
00:56:01Would you like to come?
00:56:05Thank you
00:56:06But
00:56:06We're good
00:56:07No need to be theatrical
00:56:09Alice
00:56:11This could be your moment
00:56:14Whatever you want
00:56:18I think the real heiress of the Damon family is back
00:56:24The last one they found was an imposter
00:56:27Mom, you're nervous
00:56:30It's my first time wearing a gown to a banquet
00:56:33Look, there she is
00:56:34The heiress of the Damon family
00:56:36Alice
00:56:37She's gorgeous
00:56:39Alice
00:56:40You look amazing today
00:56:42I'm going to go get a drink
00:56:46Are you still mad at me?
00:56:51Did you do anything to make me mad?
00:56:53Honestly
00:56:53Don't know anymore
00:56:55All of this should have been mine
00:56:58But if I can't have it
00:57:00No one can
00:57:00Are you mad at me?
00:57:02Did you do anything to make me mad?
00:57:04Honestly
00:57:04I don't know anymore
00:57:06Alice
00:57:07You look so good today
00:57:10I always knew there was something special in a girl like you
00:57:14And I always thought that a girl like me was never good enough for you
00:57:19Alice
00:57:20I'm sorry
00:57:22I wronged you
00:57:23It doesn't matter
00:57:24We won't see each other again
00:57:26How come you always get to decide what happens between us?
00:57:29I mean, if you're going to break up with me, at least
00:57:30At least give me a reason
00:57:32Oh my
00:57:38I get it
00:57:39It's Alice
00:57:40What you saw the other night wasn't real
00:57:43Mom
00:57:43What are you talking about?
00:57:51Oh my
00:57:52I get it
00:57:53It's Alice
00:57:54What you saw the other night wasn't real
00:57:57Mom
00:57:57What are you talking about?
00:58:00Lord
00:58:00Alice was there the night I
00:58:02I spiced up your tea
00:58:04You were there?
00:58:08Nothing happened Alice between them
00:58:10He threw that woman out
00:58:11Out of his room
00:58:12And he spent the whole night in the shower
00:58:14To sober up
00:58:15So that's why you're upset with me?
00:58:17I
00:58:17I didn't know you were drugged
00:58:19Any person would have reacted the same
00:58:21Benjamin, please
00:58:22Bitch, you think you can take everything away from me?
00:58:26Let go of me
00:58:27Are you insane?
00:58:28I am insane
00:58:29And if I'm going down
00:58:30You're coming with me
00:58:31Don't touch my daughter, little bitch
00:58:38What's happening here?
00:58:40Alex, are you hurt?
00:58:41Dad, Benjamin's been splashed with acid
00:58:42We need to take him to the hospital
00:58:43What did you call me?
00:58:45We need to take him to the hospital
00:58:46Are you still going to break up with me?
00:58:48Really?
00:58:49Is this the time?
00:58:50Let's move
00:58:51I'm not going anywhere until you promise to stay with me
00:58:53Benjamin, you can't force her
00:58:54Call her what you want
00:58:56But I'm not going to lose my future wife
00:58:58Fine, fine
00:58:59You won't lose me
00:59:00Now let's go to the hospital
00:59:01What about this one?
00:59:06Call the police
00:59:07Miss Lola here
00:59:08You're going to spend a long time in jail
00:59:18Oh, hello there
00:59:22Take a seat
00:59:24Is this a special occasion?
00:59:26Yes
00:59:27I'm proposing to you
00:59:33So now you're not the only one making an effort
00:59:36Well, I'm impressed
00:59:39So how are we doing this?
00:59:42You know what?
00:59:43Just go ahead, put the rock on my finger
00:59:44It's in the cake
00:59:46Did you not see it?
00:59:48Alice
00:59:48No jokes
00:59:49They're outdated
00:59:50No, I'm serious
00:59:52I think
00:59:56I might have
00:59:57You swallowed it?
