Stolen Heir Episode ENGSUB Lost Daughter Returns, Revenge Drama ASM
Transcript
00:05Victoria, you bastard! Why can't you just accept me as your daughter? Why did you have to bring
00:11her back? Daughter I had loved for 16 years wanted to die with me. I pulled the trigger
00:18without mercy. The bullet left the gun. My mind went completely blank. Only that question echoed
00:24in her screams as she held the detonator. Why did you have to bring her back? Why? Because
00:30seven days ago I saw a cage in Columbia. I went to Columbia to inspect investment projects.
00:37I saw the woman in the cage at first glance. She was so thin she looked unrecognizable.
00:43She curled up in a corner like a dying dog, but her face looked 70% like my daughter's.
00:49So I felt pity. I decided to buy her. The boss absolutely refused. He cursed and pushed
00:57me out. During the argument someone tore off the woman's shirt. A tattoo on her waist was
01:02exposed. June 12, 2001 I froze because my daughter had an identical tattoo. I had personally tattooed
01:09it shortly after her birth, but she was now married to that congressman. She had become
01:13Mrs. Reed. She lived in a red brick mansion in Georgetown. She lived a carefree and happy
01:18life. At that moment I quickly realized something was wrong. I returned to the hotel immediately.
01:24I dialed the private investigator's number.
01:27Dig three feet deep and find the truth. Old White, the investigator, quickly agreed on
01:32the other end. I hung up. I immediately called my former security advisor at the CIA. I gave
01:38the next order. Go to that slum black market in Bogota. Find that woman. Buy her. No matter
01:43what you have to do. My heart pounded against my ribs. That number. That string of numbers.
01:50Others might not understand its meaning. But I knew at a single glance it was my daughter's
01:56birthday. At that time I was facing political attacks during the party primary. She was born
02:01early in a private clinic. Just in case I pricked the numbers onto her lower back one by one.
02:07Later, I turned the tide. I became a senior senator. When she just became an adult, I planned to
02:12remove the tattoo. But the doctor refused. He said the injury was too deep. It reached
02:17the dermis layer. Forced removal would leave a big scar. I was a little confused at the
02:22time. It was just cigarette ash. How could it go so deep? But the doctor said so, so I
02:27did not think much about it. But now I finally understood. My daughter had been switched long
02:32ago. Twenty minutes later, my security chief Barnes called. Ma'am, we got her out. The boss
02:40called the police. Local corrupt cops blocked the streets. We must leave by water now. Keep
02:46her alive at all costs. I gave the order through gritted teeth. I strode out of the hotel room.
02:52As I walked, I kept recalling the scene at the slum black market. That woman had no tongue.
02:58Her fingernails and toenails had all been pulled out. Her eyes were full of death. Who stole
03:05my own flesh and blood? Who tortured her into this terrible state? I got into the bulletproof
03:10car. I headed straight for the dock. The wind carried a salty smell into the car. From a
03:16distance, Barnes was already waiting on the deck with his men. The emaciated woman was lying
03:21on a stretcher. The private doctor on board was giving her a cardiac stimulant injection.
03:26Her condition is extremely bad. The doctor wiped the sweat from his forehead. Severe malnutrition.
03:33Multiple fractures were never set. They healed into deformities. Her vocal cords were destroyed
03:39by chemicals. The most fatal thing is the blood infection. She has survived until now only by
03:45sheer willpower.
03:46I stepped forward. I half-squatted beside the stretcher. I reached out my hand. I wanted
03:52to touch her face. She flinched violently. Her throat made a wheezing sound like a broken
03:57bellows. Resistance. Fear. Despair. I held back the sting in my nose. I withdrew my hand.
04:05Use the best medicine. Use the most advanced equipment. Whatever it takes, pull her back from
04:11the gates of death. The yacht cut through the waves. It headed toward the deep sea. I stood
04:16on the deck the whole night. When the horizon turned fish belly white, Old White called again.
04:21Madam Senator, we found some clues. Your current daughter, Miss Reed, had a high fever when she
04:26was nine years old. At that time, you were abroad mediating a foreign policy bill involving
04:31national security. Your ex-husband took her to the hospital. The records of that private hospital
04:36show that after the fever subsided, Miss Reed's blood type changed. The hospital explained
04:41it as a wrong report from the lab at the time. But the lab director who signed it emigrated
04:46with his whole family the next month.
04:48Ex-husband, Edward Blake. He rose to power thanks to my family's political donations.
04:54I kicked him out for cheating with a female lobbyist. What a bastard. If it was him, everything
05:00made sense. He hated me for destroying his political future. So he stole my daughter. He
05:06replaced her with a bastard he had with some wild woman. Then he watched me hold that bastard
05:11in my hands. He watched me protect her like a treasure as she grew up. Good. Truly excellent.
05:18I hung up the phone. I looked at the woman on the stretcher. My own daughter was struggling
05:23to survive in the mud of a foreign land. Edward's bastard wore the title of a political family
05:29heir. She married a rising congressman. She wore gold and silver. I turned and walked into
05:34the cabin. I took out my tablet. I pulled up the financial system of the Capitol Hill
05:38caucus. My political action committee had suppressed Edward in recent years. But he was still hanging
05:44on in local elections thanks to his son-in-law, Congressman Reed. I looked at the data reports
05:50on the screen. A cold smile curled on my lips. I took out my phone. I dialed my chief of
05:55staff
05:56back home. Notify all caucus leaders. An emergency closed door meeting will be held at nine tomorrow
06:01morning. Also cut off all funding to every super cap under Edward's name. I want him on his knees
06:07begging me within three days. My chief of staff on the other end asked no questions. He simply took
06:13the order. The yacht cut through the waves. It carried me in my burning rage toward that city about
06:19to be overturned by a political storm. The rain in Washington fell thick and steady. I returned to
06:25my top floor luxury apartment in Georgetown. Outside the floor-to-ceiling window was the dazzling night
06:31view of the city of power. But I found the scenery unbearably glaring. Just then, my phone rang. It was
06:37my fake daughter, Isabella. Her voice was coquettish. It carried a sense of entitled arrogance.
06:43Mom, why didn't you tell me you were going to South America? Daniel has his eye on a piece of
06:47land in
06:48northern Virginia. He wants to build a data center. We are still 50 million short. Just take a little
06:55from the family trust. Your senate seat will be passed down to me anyway. My hand holding the phone
07:01tightened slightly. Money again. Ever since she was a child, whenever she called me on her own,
07:07it was always about these two words. I used to think maybe I had spoiled her, so I never really
07:13cared.
07:13But at this moment, I suddenly realized something. Maybe she had known all along she was not my real
07:19daughter. Maybe they were even in this together. That was why she dared to demand so recklessly.
07:26She wanted to bleed me dry. So this time, I did not say yes. I only spoke coldly.
07:3250 million is not a small sum. Come home tomorrow. We will talk in person.
07:36My tone was flat. It revealed no emotion. Isabella let out a cheer on the other end.
07:41She hung up promptly. At noon the next day, she walked into my living room in 10-centimeter red-soled
07:47heels. Her hips swayed as she moved. She casually tossed her Hermes bag worth hundreds of thousands
07:53onto the sofa. Mom, I brought the letter of intent. You just need to sign it. Her face was full
07:59of smiles.
07:59I picked up my coffee. I took a sip. My gaze crossed the rim of the cup. I studied the
08:05woman
08:05before me. She was very beautiful. Her features indeed carried a trace of my younger self. That
08:11old fox, Edward, had truly found a perfect substitute. Not so fast. I set down my coffee.
08:18How has your health been lately? You don't look so well. Really? Maybe Daniel and I went to the
08:24Republican fundraising dinner last night. We got home too late. You have been frail since childhood.
08:30Do you remember? That high fever when you were nine almost killed you.
08:35I stared straight at her. Isabella's movements paused for a second. Thank goodness dad took care
08:41of me day and night. That tattoo on your lower back. I suddenly changed the subject. How is it doing
08:47lately? Isabella's body visibly stiffened. Lift it up. Let me take a look. Isabella bit her lip.
08:54She reluctantly lifted the hem of her silk blouse. June 12, 2001. It was left by a modern tattoo
09:02machine deliberately imitating handwriting. Just as I thought. Isabella fixed her clothes.
09:08Mom, about the data center. Tell Daniel to come talk to me himself. I interrupted her. Isabella
09:14froze. She did not expect my refusal. But Daniel is pushing a bill recently. He is very busy. He may
09:21be busy. But he still must ask for support in person. I am tired. You go back first.
09:29Isabella's face turned sour. She dared not throw a tantrum. She grabbed her bag and left in a huff.
09:36The next morning, Old White called.
09:39Madam Senator, we found a large sum of money. Edward recently moved to Columbia. We found out Daniel
09:45Reed went there three years ago under the name of a fact-finding trip. The place he went was exactly
09:50that black market area where you rescued the real young lady. Daniel. I never expected my son-in-law,
09:58who had always acted so gentle and promising, was also involved. I pulled open the drawer. I took out a
10:03fully loaded Sig Sauer pistol. The game had entered its next phase. I would let them know what it truly
10:09means to wish for death. I gave the order into the phone. Investigate all overseas warehousing assets
10:14under Daniel Reed's name. I want to know the flow of every dollar of his lobbying funds. I would make
10:20them feel the pain my daughter had suffered. A private sanatorium in the Maryland suburbs. I pushed
10:25open the door of the intensive care unit. On the hospital bed lay my real daughter. And at this
10:31moment, she was sleeping quietly. Looking at her face, my heart clenched with pain again and again.
10:38Just then, my phone vibrated. It was a message from the security guard at the entrance. Madam Senator,
10:45Miss Reed is outside making a scene. She demands to come in. Isabella. I never expected she would find
10:51this place. It seemed she and Daniel had been having people watch my movements all along.
10:56Let her in, I replied. A few minutes later, the sound of high heels clicking on the marble floor
11:03echoed in the hallway. Isabella pushed the door open furiously. Mom, why did you come to such a remote
11:10place? I have been looking everywhere for you. That data center contract? Her voice stopped abruptly.
11:16Her gaze locked tightly onto the woman on the hospital bed. I saw it clearly. Her body trembled
11:22uncontrollably. Who is she? Isabella's voice changed pitch. It was sharp and trembling. I stood up.
11:30I walked step by step toward her. Do you not know her? Isabella shook her head desperately.
11:37She kept backing away. No, how could I know her? Really? Maybe you didn't see clearly from too far away.
11:48Come. Take a good look. Isabella screamed in pain, but she squeezed her eyes shut and dared not open
11:56them. Let me go. Mom, have you gone mad? She collapsed onto the floor. She covered her head and cried.
12:04I really don't know her. I really don't know her.
12:11I crouched down. I pinched her chin and forced her to look into my eyes. Isabella's face was smeared
12:17with tears and snot. Mom, why have you turned me gold-legged? I don't understand what you're saying.
12:24I let go. I took out a handkerchief and wiped my fingers with disgust. It doesn't matter if you
12:30don't understand. You will understand slowly. Go back and tell Daniel tomorrow. Bring Edward and crawl to
12:37my office to see me. Otherwise, face the consequences yourself. Isabella scrambled and
12:42crawled out of the ward. I watched her pathetic figure retreat. I smiled coldly. This was just
12:50the appetizer. Hope on the hospital bed suddenly let out a faint whimper. I turned around immediately
12:56and walked over. She had opened her eyes at some point. She was staring fiercely in the direction of
13:03the door. She knew Isabella. Perhaps Isabella had even tortured her with her own hands.
13:09Don't be afraid. Mom is here. Those who hurt you, Mom won't let a single one of them go.
13:15I walked out of the sanatorium. The rain outside was even heavier. Barnes held up a black umbrella.
13:20He opened the car door for me. Madam Senator, Daniel has made a move. He moved Edward to the Reed
13:26family
13:26estate and he just contacted an account in the Cayman Islands. Keep a close watch on that account.
13:34Also, have the caucus finance committee pull out every original debt record of the Reed family's
13:39political contributions. I want to see the Reed family's capital chain break before the sun sheds
13:44tomorrow. I would let them know in front of absolute power, their schemes and tricks could never step onto
13:50the stage. The next morning, the top floor conference room of the Senate caucus. I toyed with
13:55the Sig Sauer in my hand. The door of the conference room was suddenly shoved open. Daniel strode in
14:00aggressively. Edward huddled behind him. His face was sallow. Barnes immediately drew his gun and aimed
14:05it at Daniel. Mother-in-law, don't be so angry. We are all one family. If there's anything we could
14:12sit
14:12down and gore, we can sit down and talk it. I sneered. I slapped the gun onto the table.
14:17Edward, you bastard. Don't we have a score to settle? Edward trembled in fright. He dared not look
14:23me in the eye. Mother-in-law, I don't understand what you are saying. Isabella came back very shaken
14:28yesterday. You used a woman of unknown origin to frighten her. That was not appropriate. Unknown
14:33origin? Is she really of unknown origin? Daniel, do I need to remind you? Three years ago, you went to
14:40the
14:40black market in Colombia yourself. You gave boss $200,000. You told him to just keep her breathing.
14:45Don't let her die. You haven't forgotten this, have you? Daniel's face changed slightly,
14:49but he quickly regained his composure. Mother-in-law, you talking about, I don't understand.
14:54I couldn't help but laugh out loud. Do it. Then I pressed the intercom on the table. In less than
15:01five minutes, Daniel's phone rang frantically. He answered the call. His face instantly turned pale.
15:07What did you say? The biggest donor pulled out? All lobbying groups stopped cooperation?
15:12The IRS moved in? The media started exposing scandals? Fight to the death? You are not worthy.
15:20He shot up from his seat. He stared at me fiercely. I still have a trump card. Trump card.
15:27Hearing these two words, I couldn't help but laugh out loud. Isn't it just holding my biological
15:32daughter in your hands? I'm sorry, but your scheme is about to fail.
15:37So I clapped my hands. Old White walked in from the side door. He tossed a file bag onto the
15:43table in
15:43front of Daniel. The man froze for a moment. As if sensing what was coming, he opened the file bag
15:49with trembling hands. At this moment, Daniel's face turned deathly pale. Seeing everything was exposed,
15:55Edward beside him put his hands together in prayer and shook his head frantically.
16:00Victoria, I was wrong. Blame it on my foolish obsession back then. That woman forced me.
16:06There was an accomplice? I kicked him to the ground. Speak. Who is that woman?
16:12Just then, Old White's phone rang. He answered the call. His face turned extremely grim.
16:18Old White covered the phone. His voice trembled.
16:20Madam Senator, bad news. The sanatorium sent word. Miss Hope is missing.
16:28Darkness clouded my vision. I grabbed Daniel by the time. Daniel suddenly burst into wild laughter.
16:35Victoria, even if you destroy the Reed family, so what? You will never find your biological daughter.
16:43By now, she has probably been cut into pieces and thrown into the Atlantic to feed the sharks.
16:51I drew my Sig Sauer. I pressed it directly against Daniel's forehead. Talk. Where is she?
16:57The air in the conference room seemed to freeze. My finger was on the trigger. My knuckles turned
17:03white from the excessive force. Daniel looked at the black muzzle. His laughter stopped abruptly.
17:08He clenched his teeth. He refused to speak no matter what. He knew that if he spoke,
17:14he would lose his only bargaining chip. Madam Senator, I found something. Ten minutes before Miss Hope
17:20disappeared, a black unmarked van left the sanatorium. Federal surveillance shows that the van got on the
17:26beltway. It headed toward the abandoned industrial docks in Baltimore. Barnes, have someone watch these
17:31two wastes. A dozen black Chevrolet Suburbans shot out of the underground garage of the caucus
17:37headquarters like a black storm. Rain lashed against the windshield. The windshield wipers swung wildly.
17:43My heart rose to my throat. Hope had just crawled out of hell. She must not fall into their claws
17:50again.
17:50The convoy sped to the industrial docks in Baltimore. The gate was locked with iron chains.
17:57Ram it open. I ordered coldly. The lead car suddenly accelerated. It crashed straight through the chains.
18:05Barnes made a gesture. The bodyguards fanned out with their guns raised. I held my Sig Sauer. I followed
18:10closely behind. C4 explosives were strapped to her body. They were counting down. Isabella stood beside her.
18:17She held a detonator in her hand. Her face was full of madness.
18:22Stop! Don't come any closer!
18:25I raised my hand. I signaled everyone to stop. Isabella, you can't escape now. Put down the detonator.
18:30I will leave you a whole corpse.
18:32Toria, you bastard! Why can't you just accept me as your daughter? Why did you have to bring her back?
18:39I know you know the truth about everything now. You will never let me go. Since I can't live, then
18:46we will die together!
18:47As she spoke, she suddenly raised the detonator. I raised my hand without hesitation. I pulled the
18:53trigger. The bullet hit Isabella's wrist with precision. In an instant, the detonator flew out
18:58of her hand. It fell into a puddle on the ground. Isabella let out a scream. She clutched her wrist
19:02and collapsed to her knees. Barnes was quick. He pinned Isabella down firmly. Take her back. I looked
19:08up at Isabella pinned to the ground. My gaze was ice cold. I will make her spit out everything she
19:14swallowed. Ten times. A hundred times. An abandoned bunker in Northern Virginia. Issa was tied to an
19:20iron chair. I walked toward her step by step in my high heels. Whose bastard are you really? I looked
19:25down at her from above. Isabella bit her lip. Her eyes darted away. I don't know what you are talking
19:32about.
19:35Isabella shivered violently from the cold. She let out a sharp scream. Still playing tough.
19:40Edward already confessed. You are not some orphan. You are the illegitimate daughter of him and that
19:46whore. You lived the good life of a political family heir for 20 years. My daughter was tortured
19:53like a dog in Colombia. Isabella, what right do you have to cry innocent here? Under my barrage of
20:01questions, she burst into wailing sobs. My mother forced me. When I was nine, she forced me to get plastic
20:07surgery to look like your daughter. She said only then could I live a good life. Just as I thought,
20:13just as I thought, everything was planned from the start. Who is that whore? I tightened my grip.
20:19It's, it's your chief of staff. Isabella spat out a name that shocked me.
20:26Cassandra, that confidant who had followed me for 15 years. She was the real culprit who stole my
20:31daughter. Rage instantly swallowed my reason. I immediately took out my phone. I dialed Cassandra's
20:35number. It was turned off. Old White, find Cassandra's whereabouts. She can't have gone far.
20:4010 minutes later, Old White called back. Madam Senator, Cassandra boarded a private to Switzerland
20:46an hour ago and she emptied all the funds from several of your overseas political action nuisance,
20:51a full 50 million dollars. I was so furious I laughed. I turned and looked at Isabella. Your
20:56mother ran away. She left you here as the scapegoat. Scapegoat. Tell me, how do you think
21:02I will torture you? Isabella trembled in terror. She begged for mercy again and again. Mom,
21:09for the sake of calling you mom for 20 years, please spare me. I will give you all the Reed
21:14family
21:14money. I will like a horse to repay you. Shut up. I turned my head away in disgust. Barnes,
21:20bring the pliers. My daughter suffered. She must experience every bit of it exactly the same way.
21:27Isabella's heart wrenching screams echoed through the bunker. I turned a deaf ear. I turned around
21:32and walked out of the bunker. Three days later, the largest underground casino in Atlantic City.
21:37Edward was dragged out of a dog cage by several burly men. He had not slept for days and nights.
21:43His whole body reeked of a sour stench. The casino owner respectfully handed over an IOU. Edward lost 80
21:50million here in the past few days. He mortgaged all his properties, his cars, and even Daniel's share
21:56of political contributions. I took the IOU. Edward, you have really made something of yourself.
22:02Victoria, save me. I am less than human. I was tricked by that bitch Cassandra. I deserve to die.
22:08Cassandra is already living it up in Switzerland with your money. I should never have believed that
22:12poisonous woman. Victoria, for the sake of the years we were husband and wife, give me a way out.
22:18When you switched my daughter, did you leave her a way out? When you watched Cassandra steal my money,
22:24did you leave me a way out? I walked up to him. I looked down at this man who had
22:28once shared my bed.
22:34I will pay off this 80 million debt for you. Edward jerked his head up. A glimmer of hope lit
22:39his eyes.
22:40But the condition is this. You will go to the black market. You will sell your liver,
22:45your kidneys, and your coracles. All the money will be donated to the anti-human trafficking
22:50charity foundation. No! You can't do this! That's murder! Barnes, do it.
22:58Several bodyguards stepped forward. They dragged Edward out like a dead dog. His screams slowly faded
23:04into the depths of the corridor. With Edward dealt with, I returned to my office in Washington.
23:09Daniel was already in FBI custody. He was suspected of money laundering,
23:14murder for hire, and multiple other felonies. He would never get out for the rest of his life.
23:19Not enough. But this was not enough. Cassandra was still out there. She was still free. I dialed Old
23:25White's number. Have you found Cassandra's exact location in Zurich? We found it, Madam Senator. She
23:32bought a lakeside villa. She has over a dozen private bodyguards with her. Send the location to the Blackwater
23:40Mercenaries. Tell them I want her alive. If they cannot bring her back alive, then bring back her
23:45head. I hung up the phone. I walked to the floor to ceiling window. Only the last piece of my
23:50revenge
23:51puzzle remained. Half a month later, a private helicopter landed on the lawn of the Virginia
23:56estate. The rotor blades churned up a huge windstorm. Several fully armed mercenaries escorted a woman with
24:03a black hood over her head down the steps. The black hood was ripped off. Cassandra's terrified
24:08face was revealed. Madam Senator! Madam Senator, spare my life! I will return all the money! Every
24:16last penny! Cassandra fell straight to her knees on the lawn. Cassandra wept heart-wrenchingly.
24:21For the sake of the fifteen years I served you, give me a way out! Fifteen years. You followed me
24:27for
24:27fifteen years. You ate my food. You wore my clothes. You spent my money. Behind my back,
24:33you climbed into my husband's bed. You gave birth to a bastard and swapped away my own daughter!
24:40Cassandra, did a dog eat your conscience? I'm so sorry! It was Edward who seduced me! He forced me!
24:49He said you were too dominicing! He couldn't take it! He said the one he loved was me! I am
24:56just a weak
24:57woman! What could I have done? I laughed coldly. A weak woman? A weak woman who hired Colombian gangs to
25:06torture my daughter into a human stick? A weak woman who stole fifty million dollars and fled overseas?
25:13I took an electric baton from a bodyguard. I jabbed it directly into Cassandra's stomach. High voltage
25:19current shot through her entire body instantly. Cassandra let out an inhuman shriek. Her whole
25:25body convulsed. She collapsed to the ground. Foam came out of her mouth. Her eyes rolled back. I threw
25:31the electric baton back to the bodyguard in disgust. Take her to the kennel in the backyard. I turned and
25:36walked into the house. Sunlight fell on Hope's face. The muscles at the corner of her mouth twitched
25:42slightly. A stiff smile appeared on her face. All the enemies had received their due punishment.
25:47I walked to the liquor cabinet. I poured two glasses of bourbon whiskey. I handed one glass
25:52to Hope. Her hand trembled. She struggled to hold the glass. The two glasses clinked gently together.
25:58Hope, let's toast to a new life. They made a clear, crisp sound.
