00:04It's been three days. Where is she? I don't care what it takes, bring her back to me.
00:11Yes, sir.
00:16I'm done being patient.
00:27Good evening, Mr. Shaw. I have a surprise I want you to know.
00:32Oh? What's the surprise?
00:36It's me.
00:38It's her.
00:48Seven years. From 19 to 26, I'm finally going to become the future Mrs. Shaw.
01:01Good. Once this act is over, those old men will shut up.
01:06What do you mean?
01:08Cora Matthews. Marrying her is just a way to keep the old man in check.
01:13They always think I'm too young to handle things, so they're forcing me to settle down.
01:18But you've been with Ms. Matthews for seven years now.
01:23Seven years.
01:25I got tired of her long ago.
01:27If it weren't for this position, I would even waste my time.
01:31And after the wedding? After that?
01:35Hasn't that foster kid always wanted to get close to her?
01:38Same with the Lee family's young master.
01:42Let her drink and chat with him.
01:45That's all she's good for.
01:47Mr. Shaw, wouldn't that be a little too...
01:51What? You have a problem with that?
01:54No, sir.
01:57Seven years.
01:59So to him, those seven years were just a charade.
02:02And I'm nothing but a pawn for him to consolidate his power.
02:05Even if we got married, I'd just be a social trophy for him to show off.
02:09And I'd still be forced to entertain other men.
02:16Behind me, the talk went on.
02:17But I left.
02:19I just knew I had to go to the banquet hall, where the ceremony would be.
02:31Miss Matthews is here.
02:33She's beautiful.
02:35Lucky Ethan.
02:39Once, I thought that smile hid true affection.
02:42Now I realize it was indifference.
02:45Ladies and gentlemen, thank you all for coming tonight.
02:49I have an important announcement.
02:53Miss Lena Foster, please come up to the stage.
03:01The Fosters and Shaws will fully cooperate.
03:05My engagement to Cora Matthews will be postponed indefinitely.
03:11And we must be won.
03:22We'll be the firstWingschet.
03:50I'll be in my room if you need me.
04:11Cora, I know you're angry.
04:13Come downstairs so we can talk properly.
04:17It's not personal, just business, you know that.
04:21Cora, open the door.
04:27I never thought it would end like this.
04:31This is the key to everything.
04:47I never thought it would end like this.
04:50I never thought it would end like this.
05:11I never thought it would end like this.
05:33This is exactly the leverage you urgently need.
05:37What do you want?
05:38Resources, protection, and a truly equal partner.
05:44I don't want handouts for a shelter.
05:47I want a fair deal.
05:50I never thought it would end like this.
06:29I've drafted the cooperation terms.
06:37I can bring three years worth of evidence to take down Ethan and the Matthews connections and my strategic value
06:44as the person Ethan is obsessed with.
06:47I want resources, access, and an equal say.
06:54The documents won't go through any third party, and you control the timing.
07:00That's right.
07:01If it goes to legal proceedings, you must be listed among the beneficiaries of the interests.
07:06Alright.
07:09It's a deal.
07:15This is an equal and mutually beneficial partnership.
07:20The Cora Matthews who used to settle for less is long gone.
07:24Her purpose has already come to an end.
07:27I no longer need to live as others expect me to be.
07:31From now on, I'll live my life on my own terms.
07:36Complete evidence chain.
07:38All documents dated and clearly sourced.
07:41Once we strike, we must win with one decisive blow.
07:47Get all the documents organized.
07:49I'll send you the USB drive on Friday.
08:00Tell Mr. Shaw that Miss Matthews isn't available this evening.
08:16What did Mr. Shaw tell you before he left?
08:21He asked me to pass a message to you, Miss Matthews.
08:24I came in person.
08:25This is the last time I'll make an exception for her.
08:30Also, tell her father to contact a lawyer before 9 tomorrow morning.
08:36The Shaw group never waits for anyone.
08:40Thanks.
08:44He's threatening my family.
08:47I know.
08:49Counterclaim the Matthews who's offense to blow today.
08:51The Travis's Etter claim Ekum and Tam to Six.
08:55You saw this coming.
08:57That's right.
09:02Hey, Sophie.
09:03Miss Matthews!
09:05Several subsidiary stocks have crashed.
09:07Suppliers are defaulting.
09:09And banks are calling in loans!
09:11Sophie, calm down.
09:13Core assets moved two weeks ago.
09:15Let him try.
09:16Miss, you transferred all the core assets long ago?
09:19Done before I left.
09:20Six months in the making.
09:23Core accounts are secure.
09:24I'll send you the latest asset structure today.
09:27I'll notify the board immediately.
09:35He's short stockling our peripheral subsidiaries.
09:38I moved the core assets before the engagement party.
09:42So now he's targeting your family.
09:45It's just a waste of effort.
09:47Exhausting themselves on shell companies.
09:50I need help with the counterclaim.
09:52But the crisis is no longer a threat.
09:54I had the counterclaim documents filed long ago.
09:58But you never needed this counterclaim to protect yourself in the first place.
10:01Not for this crisis.
10:03But next time, maybe not.
10:10Hello, father.
10:12It's Cora.
10:13I'm just letting you know how things stand with the company.
10:17Don't worry.
10:21The Meridian Group Annual Gala.
10:24Every notable and powerful figure is present.
10:28Get ready to depart at 7.
10:44And this is Cora Matthews.
10:48She's with me.
11:01Grant and Cora Matthews.
11:03I was at the Shaw engagement last month.
11:05Quite a stir that night.
11:07Honestly, I didn't expect you here this soon.
11:09And so, calm and composed.
11:12She has the leverage to keep Shaw Group in trouble for an entire year.
11:16Don't act smart and say things you shouldn't, Richard.
11:20I thought you didn't receive an invitation to the Meridian Gala this year.
11:25After the Hargrove scandal, I thought they'd rescreen the guest listing.
11:29It's nothing important.
11:32It really doesn't matter.
11:34Enjoy the gala.
11:44Ethan is here tonight as well.
12:11Cora!
12:12We weren't sure you'd come tonight.
12:14Why wouldn't I?
12:16Oh, I just thought, after everything that happened, it would take a while to show your face.
12:20That takes courage.
12:22I mean that.
12:24You look well.
12:25Any regrets?
12:26About what?
12:30The choice you made?
12:32Walking away?
12:33I've been wondering...
12:35Now that you've had time to think...
12:36I don't think about it.
12:37That's the honest answer.
12:39Hmm.
12:43We should say hello to the Meridian Board.
12:46Okay.
13:06You have a lot of nerve.
13:09Showing up at that dinner, parading yourself around like you have something to prove?
13:14Do you have any idea what you're doing to him?
13:17I'm sorry.
13:18He can't stop talking about you.
13:21Every room we're in.
13:22Every conversation.
13:23You come up.
13:24You always come up.
13:25And you love it, don't you?
13:26That's why you're still here.
13:28Still visible.
13:29Still showing up to every event where he might be.
13:32Because the moment he stops thinking about you, you lose your leverage.
13:36You think I'm doing this on purpose?
13:38I know you are.
13:39This is what women like you do.
13:41You lose and then you hang around the edges making sure he feels guilty.
13:45Making sure he wonders.
13:47Playing the wounded one.
13:48You're not wounded, Korra.
13:50You're calculating.
13:51And everyone can see it except him.
13:53Women like me?
13:55You heard me.
13:56I did.
13:57You won.
13:58He chose you.
14:00He put you on that stage in front of everyone.
14:04So why does it bother you this much that he still thinks about me?
14:08If you'd actually won, I'd be irrelevant.
14:12You wouldn't be here.
14:13You wouldn't have spent the last ten minutes telling me how much space I take up in his head.
14:18The problem isn't what I'm doing.
14:20The problem is that you can't make him stop.
14:25You need to disappear.
14:27Do you understand me?
14:29Just disappear.
14:31Stop showing up.
14:33Stop making him-
14:34Let go.
14:39Ethan Shaw couldn't stop thinking about me.
14:43And Lena Foster couldn't sleep because of it.
14:55Aren't you going to check it?
15:11He...
15:16This is what he does.
15:27He'd done this before.
15:29The pills.
15:29The car crash threats.
15:31The wrist.
15:32Every time I tried to leave.
15:33Every time it worked.
15:50You stood outside that door for two hours?
15:53Yes.
15:55Why?
15:56Because I was afraid.
15:58I didn't want to not know if you were alright.
16:01I was alright.
16:03I know.
16:05I stayed anyway.
16:25Cora?
16:26I just landed.
16:27Where are you?
16:28Wanna grab dinner tonight?
16:32I...
16:33I'm at Lucas Grant's place.
16:34Oh?
16:36Things moving that fast?
16:37Wait.
16:38What's up with your voice?
16:42Ethan Shaw.
16:44He sent me a photo.
16:46A photo?
16:47What kind of photo?
16:48He cut himself.
16:50It's deep.
16:51There's...
16:51blood.
16:53God dammit!
16:54Not this again!
16:56Cora, wake up!
16:57This isn't love.
16:58You get it?
16:58This is straight up emotional manipulation.
17:02Manipulation?
17:02Every time you try to leave.
17:04He hurts himself.
17:05Threatens you.
17:05Plays the victim.
17:06That's not love.
17:08He's holding your kindness and guilt hostage seven years.
17:11He's trained you like Pavrov's dog.
17:13The second you see him hurt, you cave.
17:15You always go back.
17:16Cora, this is manipulation.
17:18Naked psychological manipulation.
17:28Cora, are you still with me?
17:31Yeah.
17:32Which room are you in?
17:34Is Lucas there?
17:35The study.
17:36He's downstairs.
17:41Good.
17:42Listen to me.
17:43Whatever Ethan Shaw sends you, stop looking at it.
17:47None of this is your responsibility.
17:49It never was.
17:52Manipulation.
17:53The word kept running.
17:56All those years of feeling trapped and guilty, and small.
17:59And it had a name.
18:01One word.
18:02And suddenly all of it had a shape.
18:05I thought about two years ago.
18:07I'd booked a book and a book and a book and a book and a book and a book and
18:07a book
18:07wrote flights to California with friends.
18:09The night before we left, Ethan cut his hand.
18:12Not badly.
18:13Just enough.
18:14I cancelled the trip and spent three days at the hospital.
18:18As long as you're here, I'm not afraid of anything.
18:23I thought that meant love.
18:28I need a laptop.
18:30Mine isn't here.
18:30Hmm.
18:35So this is how it was.
18:38Seven years.
18:39He's been quietly moving my family's assets into his own name.
18:47Cora.
18:49There are things about the business arrangements you might have seen.
18:52I want to explain in person.
18:54Were you stifling from my family's accounts while we were together?
18:57Business and personal aren't always separate.
19:00I know exactly how it works.
19:03I built the file.
19:05Ethan Shaw already knew I had the flash drive.
19:07So this is what Ethan Shaw called love.
19:12Seven years.
19:14The first time he said I love me, the same day he signed the first agreement,
19:18stripping my family's name off their own assets.
19:21I had found it first by accident.
19:30Lucas stood there.
19:32He didn't move.
19:34He just let it happen.
19:38The one I'd set years ago.
19:42I stared at it.
19:44Couldn't move.
19:48You don't have to answer anything tonight.
19:51Or ever.
19:58The documentation is solid.
20:00We have everything we need to move legally or publicly on our timeline.
20:07Yes.
20:08I want to be in the room for every decision.
20:12You will be.
20:16Get some sleep.
20:20My mother called on a Thursday.
20:22I hadn't heard her voice in three weeks.
20:24I'm downstairs.
20:25Come down.
20:26He wants you back.
20:27He's willing to overlook all of this.
20:31Overlook?
20:32Your father's accounts are in trouble.
20:34The company can't hold on.
20:35All of it stops the moment you come home.
20:38The trouble with father's accounts stopped two weeks ago.
20:41I've been depositing into a private account in his name every week since I left.
20:46He hasn't checked it yet, but it's there.
20:49He loves you.
20:50Seven years.
20:51Men make mistakes, Cora.
20:53You don't throw away seven years over one evening.
20:56He brought another woman on stage at our engagement party.
20:59While I was standing in the crowd.
21:02That wasn't a mistake.
21:04It was a message.
21:05That's not-
21:06I was there.
21:07You weren't.
21:09He asked me to give you this.
21:12Read it when you're ready to stop being stubborn.
21:15I'm not being stubborn.
21:17I just don't want a life that looks like this.
21:19Your father won't reach out.
21:21He's too proud.
21:22But I want you to understand.
21:25If this family falls apart, that's a choice you made.
21:28And you'll have to live with it.
21:40I didn't open it.
21:42I didn't open it.
21:43I don't want to know what it says.
21:50Come inside.
22:00Do you want to be here?
22:02What?
22:03Not the plan.
22:05Not the documentation.
22:07Here.
22:08With me.
22:09Do you want to be here?
22:10Yes.
22:11Good.
22:17My father texted me on Saturday.
22:19Coffee.
22:20Just us.
22:21I owe you an apology.
22:27I'll let you know if I need you there.
22:35You set this up.
22:37Cora, just sit.
22:38You told me it was just us.
22:41Cora.
22:41I'll restore the accounts.
22:43All of them.
22:44Immediately.
22:45No conditions.
22:45No negotiations.
22:46I'm not asking you to come back.
22:48I'm asking for 10 minutes.
22:53The accounts were never mine to decide.
22:56You know that.
22:57You lied to me to get me here.
23:01Mr. Shaw would appreciate 5 minutes, Miss Matthews.
23:04Cora.
23:05You came here.
23:07That means something.
23:08You had my father lie to my face to get me in a room.
23:12That's not what someone does when they love a person.
23:15That's what someone does when they're running out of moves.
23:19The accounts.
23:21Restore them.
23:22Now.
23:22Today.
23:23Without conditions.
23:24Because if you don't,
23:25what you did to my family will be the first thing I tell every person in your network who asks
23:30why we're no longer together.
23:32You know I have their numbers.
23:34And you know I have more than that.
23:38I'm at the address I sent you.
23:40My exit is blocked.
23:42Can you send someone?
23:43Two minutes.
23:44Actually.
23:44I waited for 4 minutes.
23:46My father at the table not looking at me.
23:48And Ethan 3 feet away asking me to be reasonable.
24:00Still running.
24:01Good.
24:04Good.
24:05She had worked alongside Lucas for years.
24:09Professional.
24:10Competent.
24:11Her name on every major proposal he'd signed in the last three years.
24:16The first time we met.
24:18Good to see you.
24:19The second time she asked Lucas in front of me whether I'd be joining permanently or just for now.
24:28He does this.
24:30Brings someone in.
24:31Gets absorbed for a while.
24:33Don't build too much around it.
24:35That's all I'm saying.
24:37Does he know you're saying this?
24:39He doesn't need to know everything.
24:42Diana.
24:43Whatever you said while I was gone.
24:45Don't say it again.
24:46I was just-
24:47I know exactly what you were doing.
24:52It won't happen again.
24:53If it does, we'll have a different conversation.
24:58You didn't have to-
24:59Yes I did.
25:00No one speaks to you that way.
25:02Not in my presence.
25:04Not anywhere near me.
25:06He did something like this, didn't he?
25:08And didn't stop it.
25:10I'm not him.
25:12He noticed.
25:13He didn't make anything of it.
25:14That was the difference too.
25:22You've been sending copies of grant group strategy documents to a contact at Shaw Group.
25:26I found three instances.
25:28There may be more.
25:30I'm not going to Lucas with this today.
25:32But you're going to submit your resignation this afternoon.
25:36Conflict of interest.
25:37Professional reasons.
25:39Your choice of language.
25:41If you don't, I'll hand the folder to Lucas in the morning.
25:45His choice of response will be worse than mine.
25:50She submitted her resignation that afternoon.
25:57I didn't explain.
25:59He didn't ask.
26:03Grant.
26:04I've been hearing things.
26:06That this.
26:07Was something you'd been setting up for a while.
26:10That Cora Matthews was useful to you before you were using her.
26:15I'm sure that's not true.
26:17Where did you hear that?
26:19Oh.
26:20Just.
26:20Around.
26:21I'd like to know the source.
26:23Where?
26:24They won't tell you.
26:25Just where.
26:29Shaw.
26:30Grant.
26:32I've been trying to figure out the timeline.
26:35When exactly Grant started planning all this.
26:37So I went back through two years of records.
26:40Every event I brought Cora to.
26:42Every dinner.
26:43Every gala.
26:43Every function.
26:44He was at every single one.
26:46I thought it was normal competition.
26:49But then I found the file.
26:51He's had a file on you Cora.
26:54Detailed one.
26:55I've seen part of it.
26:56You want to tell her what's in it?
26:58Or should I?
26:59Perfect.
27:00Because I had one too.
27:05Excuse me.
27:08I stayed until the end of the event.
27:13When I got back to the penthouse.
27:15Every light was off.
27:16Lucas's study door was closed.
27:18I had a press strategy to start thinking through.
27:28You left.
27:30Yes.
27:31You set your glass down in front of a room full of people.
27:34And walked out without looking back.
27:36Whatever Ethan was trying to do.
27:38You handed it to him.
27:40He was trying to get a reaction.
27:42I gave him a smaller one than staying would have.
27:44You left me standing there.
27:47You handled it.
27:48I always handle it.
27:50That's not the point.
27:52The point is that you had a file on me.
27:54That before I said one word to you in that bar, you already knew exactly?
27:59Yes.
28:00Stop agreeing with me.
28:01Say something that isn't just confirmation.
28:04Tell me I'm wrong.
28:05Tell me it doesn't matter.
28:06Do something besides sitting there handing me facts.
28:10I can't tell you you're wrong.
28:12Then be angry about it.
28:13Be sorry.
28:14Be anything.
28:15Because right now you're looking at me like a problem that's been resolved and I am not-
28:24I'm not looking at you like a resolved problem.
28:27I haven't been able to look at you like that for a long time.
28:30That's actually the problem.
28:32The file was how it started.
28:34It stopped being about the file.
28:36I don't know exactly when.
28:38Don't walk out on me again.
28:40Not in front of people.
28:41Not anywhere.
28:43Okay.
28:44Have you eaten?
28:45What?
28:46It's 11.30.
28:47You didn't eat at the reception.
28:49Come on.
28:57You cook?
28:58Occasionally, when I want to think.
29:01What are you thinking about right now?
29:03Nothing.
29:09How did you know I like-
29:11You mentioned it once, three weeks ago.
29:14You said the only thing that actually helped when you couldn't sleep was something warm
29:18and plain.
29:19I was listening.
29:22He asked me what I'd wanted to do before the engagement was announced.
29:26I told him.
29:27I hadn't said it out loud in a long time.
29:29He listened without comment, which was exactly right.
29:42I'm staying.
29:51I need to see you.
29:53Just me.
29:54No Ethan.
29:55I promise.
29:56I should've known.
29:58I'd heard that promise before.
30:02Ethan was out of public moves.
30:04The accounts, the confrontation at the cafe, the letter.
30:07He had one tool left.
30:10Force.
30:22This time, I wasn't coming unprepared.
30:36No!
30:37No!
30:54You're alright.
30:55Nothing happened.
30:56I just needed you somewhere we could talk without Lucas Grant's people listening.
31:01Locked.
31:01Cora, listen to me.
31:03I'm not going to hurt you.
31:04I just need you to hear me out.
31:06Where is my father?
31:08He's fine.
31:09He's not here.
31:11He helped me because he loves you because he knows that what you're doing is...
31:15He helped you kidnap me.
31:17That...
31:18That's the word.
31:19You drugged me and put me in a warehouse and you're telling me your intentions are good.
31:25Keep him talking.
31:27Let the recorder run.
31:28I'm telling you that you are making a mistake.
31:30That I cannot watch you make.
31:34Seven years.
31:35Cora.
31:36Seven years.
31:38You don't throw that away because of one bad night.
31:41You humiliated me in front of everyone we knew.
31:44You replaced me with her on a stage while I was standing there.
31:49You've been threatening my family for weeks.
31:52And you think the problem is that I'm throwing something away?
31:58Come home.
32:00I'll fix everything.
32:01The accounts, your parents, all of it.
32:04Just come home.
32:05No.
32:06Cora!
32:12Let go.
32:22Are you hurt?
32:29The evidence is recorded.
32:32Lucas.
32:34This is a private conversation.
32:36It's over.
32:37Whatever you think this was, it's over.
32:40You don't get to walk in here and...
32:42I just did.
32:44You drugged her.
32:46You held her against her will.
32:48And before all of that, you spent weeks threatening her family, humiliating her in public and sending people to intimidate
32:54her.
32:55I've been patient.
32:57I'm done being patient.
32:59She's...
33:00She's leaving with me.
33:02Let's go.
33:04Let's go.
33:32Miss Matthews, your guest is here.
33:35Let him in.
33:40Please, have a seat, Mr. Shaw.
33:50Beautiful work.
33:51Must have been hard to find someone with that kind of skill.
33:56But, some things, once broken, never really heal.
34:00No matter how careful the repair, the cracks are always there.
34:04You can put it away.
34:06I won't be taking it with me.
34:08Cora, I tried.
34:11I sent Lena to talk to you.
34:13She came back and said...
34:15She said you made her feel like she'd already lost before she opened her mouth.
34:18I let her go after that.
34:20I've been handling this myself ever since.
34:22Give me a chance.
34:24Just one?
34:26There are no more chances for us.
34:28I know how much effort you put in.
34:30That doesn't change anything.
34:33Cora!
34:35Goodbye, Ethan.
34:37He isn't done.
34:39I already knew that.
34:48Seven years, Cora.
34:49Seven years together.
34:50Are you really going to erase all of that like it meant nothing?
34:52That was a long time ago.
34:56How can you be so heartless?
34:58You're going to throw everything away because of one mistake just like that?
35:01I was standing in the crowd at our own engagement party while you handed her a microphone.
35:09That wasn't a mistake.
35:11That was a message.
35:14You think leaving me means you're free, without my permission, you won't last a day in this city.
35:20Lucas Crant might protect you now.
35:23But do you really think he can shield you forever?
35:30Cora!
35:32Are you even listening to me?
35:37Cora!
35:38Are you even listening to me?
35:49You said the same thing three months ago.
35:52That I wouldn't last a day.
35:54What happened after that?
35:56I'm asking genuinely.
35:58I'd like to know how that turned out for you.
36:08Ethan Shaw, it's been seven years.
36:11We're both exhausted.
36:21Mr. Shaw, Ms. Matthews arranged this room.
36:24Out of control guests aren't welcome here.
36:27Let go of me!
36:28You can't!
36:29You...
36:30I felt nothing.
36:32Mr. Shaw, my place.
36:35My rules.
36:36Lucas Grant, who the hell do you think you are?
36:40Take him outside.
36:52Who had spent so long believing he couldn't lose, that he hadn't built anything to fall back on.
37:01We are done.
37:03For good.
37:04We're quits.
37:06No more strings.
37:18Cora Matthews.
37:22You will regret this.
37:24You will regret this.
37:27You will regret this.
37:32He was gone.
37:34Seven years of it, the whole weight, had left with him, and taken nothing of mine.
37:41He was present from the very beginning.
37:43He heard every conversation between me and Ethan.
37:47He never interfered at all.
37:49This one, I didn't touch it.
37:51I know.
37:52He secretly helped me navigate countless crises.
37:56He understands my silence, as well as my stubbornness.
38:02Let's go home.
38:04Somewhere in the city, Ethan Shaw's last card was already in play.
38:10But that was his problem now.
38:19Sources close to Shaw Group alleged that Cora Matthews was leveraged by Lucas Grant as a calculated move against a
38:26business rival.
38:28A relationship engineered, not chosen.
38:36He wants me to look desperate.
38:38Yes.
38:39Then I'll hold a press conference.
38:41I was going to.
38:43I know.
38:43But it should be mine.
38:45Okay.
38:55Three years ago, I began noticing discrepancies in the Matthews Group's asset records.
39:01It took me two years to understand what I was seeing.
39:06One more year to document it completely.
39:14This is a record of seven years of systematic asset transfer from the Matthews Group to Shaw Group entities.
39:23The full documentation has been filed with our legal counsel and submitted to the relevant regulatory body this morning.
39:36Additionally, three weeks ago, I was drugged, abducted, and held without consent by parties working at the direction of Ethan
39:43Shaw.
39:44I recorded the encounter.
39:47I just needed you somewhere we could talk without Lucas Grant's people listening.
39:52Come home.
39:55The Matthews family is announcing a full business restructuring today.
40:00Returning all misappropriated assets to our balance sheet.
40:04Our legal team will be available for questions at four o'clock.
40:15I was sitting there watching you.
40:18And I realized something.
40:21What?
40:22I don't want to lose you.
40:24It's who you truly are.
40:26One of a kind.
40:28Irreplaceable you.
40:30I wanted to say it out loud.
40:36You picked a hell of a moment.
40:40I know.
40:41Let's go.
40:52I need to tell you something.
40:54I love you.
40:57Not because you're useful.
40:58Not because of what you did to Shaw Group.
41:00You, who you are.
41:02That's what this is.
41:04I wanted to say it clearly.
41:07You took your time.
41:09You kept me waiting.
41:12I wanted to say it clearly.
41:14So there's no ambiguity between us.
41:16I wanted to be sure.
41:18I'm sure.
41:20Me too.
41:21I wanted to ask you.
41:21I wanted to ask you.
41:23Mrs. Grant, a package arrived.
41:25No return address.
41:36It's a beautiful dress.
41:39Whoever made this did a decent job.
41:45I'll be in the garden.
41:55I'm sorry, but this is goodbye.
42:03Done.
42:10What are you thinking about?
42:15I'm thinking about our future.
42:19Wondering whose temperament our kids will take after.
42:25Definitely you.
42:27Everywhere you go, your powerful aura puts others in quiet restraint.
42:32No.
42:34I hope they inherit your calm and steady nature.
42:37You're far more composed and assured than I am.
42:41You're controlled.
42:42That's not the same thing.
42:45Exactly.
42:46Controlled is learned.
42:48Steady is what you're built from.
42:50I'd like them to have that.
42:53Hey.
42:55Hmm?
42:56I'm grateful I stayed true to myself back then, and never looked back.
43:01Me too.
43:04I alone end the past.
43:06The past is gone.
43:08Bright days lie ahead.
43:21Our keynote speaker tonight needs no introduction.
43:25As chair of the Matthews Grant Foundation and this year's Meridian Philanthromist of the Year.
43:35The Grant boy, Henry, isn't it?
43:38Named for Lucas' late mother.
43:41That's right.
43:42In that family, there's no higher honor you can give.
43:50He knew that name.
43:51He knew what it meant.
43:53He knew what it meant.
43:54This child wasn't just the heir to Grant group.
43:57He was proof of something.
43:59The living evidence of a life built entirely outside anything Ethan had ever offered anyone.
44:05He also wanted to not work.
44:06He was not mom.
44:25He was proof of something.
44:27People are a little different.
44:31He wasn't as powerful as he was.
