Short filmTranscript
00:00:00I'm Sofia Mendoza, Harris to the Mendoza Group.
00:00:03I've done some crazy things in my life, but the craziest?
00:00:06Today I'm spending $200 million to propose to my fiancé's own brother.
00:00:10Yeah, I'm putting a ring on it and a green hat on him.
00:00:14Alejandro, this is $200 million. I need you to marry me.
00:00:17What do you mean? You're engaged to Matias, my brother.
00:00:20I'm breaking it off with him.
00:00:21Had a fight? So now you want to marry his brother out of spite and disgust me in the process?
00:00:26I'm serious.
00:00:27I'll pretend I didn't hear any of that.
00:00:28Alejandro, every woman in town wanted him, but he never cared.
00:00:31What I didn't know then was that his rejection wasn't accidental.
00:00:34He'd been hiding how he felt for years.
00:00:36And he almost gave himself away right there in front of me.
00:00:39I mean it. Please, marry me.
00:00:42Then tell me, what exactly did he do that's so unforgivable?
00:00:46Three months ago at the graduation party, Matias gave my favorite roses to another woman.
00:00:51Right in front of everyone. That's when it hit me.
00:00:54I was the joke in this relationship.
00:00:56Sofia, let me explain.
00:00:57Let's call off the engagement.
00:00:59What? Over one flower?
00:01:00One flower?
00:01:01Matias, on your birthday you didn't apply to a single text. Who were you with?
00:01:04Last week I had surgery and you said you were on a trip. Where'd you go?
00:01:08That necklace you gave me on Valentine's Day, did you even pick it out yourself?
00:01:10Sofia, there are reasons for all of that.
00:01:13Right. You always have a reason.
00:01:15Your apologies are always right on time.
00:01:18You even say never again, so convincing me.
00:01:20But Matias, I'm done hearing it.
00:01:22Camila and I really are just-
00:01:24You don't need to explain who she is.
00:01:26Just have one question.
00:01:29Do you love her?
00:01:34You can't even say no.
00:01:35I can't explain it.
00:01:37But I don't want to lose you.
00:01:40Can't explain it. That's the clearest answer there is.
00:01:42Let's end the engagement. We're done.
00:01:45His face wasn't surprised. It was guilt.
00:01:48Maybe he'd been waiting for me to say it for a long time.
00:01:51He just didn't have the guts to go first.
00:01:53Fine. I'll be the one to end it.
00:01:55You want to use me to cut things off with Matias? Give me one reason I should say yes.
00:01:58Your grandfather's been pushing you to get married.
00:02:00If we marry, the family engagement stays intact.
00:02:01You stop getting nagged, and both companies keep the project moving.
00:02:04Once it's all settled, we divorce three, four years max.
00:02:06And you walk away with 200 million for free.
00:02:08Three birds, one stump.
00:02:09The way you put it, you'd think I need the money.
00:02:11Then what do you need?
00:02:12Nothing.
00:02:13Sorry, but my marriage is my decision.
00:02:15No need for Miss Mendoza to worry about it.
00:02:17But right as he walked out, his lips curved.
00:02:19Just barely.
00:02:20He was laughing at me.
00:02:21The coldest billionaire in the city was laughing at me.
00:02:27Valeria, he said no.
00:02:28What?
00:02:29He turned down 200 million?
00:02:30Is he insane?
00:02:31Yep.
00:02:32Totally bulletproof.
00:02:33So what now?
00:02:34More money.
00:02:34I'm going back tomorrow.
00:02:36No way.
00:02:36I can't crack him.
00:02:37When I said I'm going back tomorrow, even I thought it was funny.
00:02:40Me, Sofia Mendoza.
00:02:42I've never chased anyone in my life, let alone someone who just rejected me.
00:02:46But what I didn't know was, he was waiting for tomorrow too.
00:02:49Even more than I was.
00:02:51Day two.
00:02:52I'm back.
00:02:52I knew it would be a tough negotiation, but I was going to win.
00:02:58210 million.
00:03:02220 million.
00:03:05230 million.
00:03:06He didn't even turn around, like he was listening to an auction that had nothing to do with him.
00:03:13231 million, 50,000.
00:03:15Take it or leave it.
00:03:17Why'd you stop?
00:03:21That's literally all my money.
00:03:25And if I still say no?
00:03:26I'll find someone else.
00:03:28Someone else?
00:03:29You'd marry a stranger?
00:03:31Aren't you a stranger too?
00:03:32The second I said aren't you a stranger too, his eyes changed.
00:03:36It wasn't anger, it was more like that one word, stranger, stung him.
00:03:40Hard.
00:03:42He didn't even ask if I wanted water, just poured me a glass.
00:03:45I was thirsty, sure.
00:03:46But I couldn't tell if it was a coincidence or if he'd been quietly paying attention to me this whole
00:03:50time.
00:03:51I don't need the money.
00:03:52What?
00:03:53Keep your money.
00:03:53But I have three conditions.
00:03:56Go on.
00:03:57First, to the outside world, we're a real couple.
00:04:00Second, you can't treat me like a prop.
00:04:02And the third?
00:04:05Everything, leave it to me.
00:04:07You're not going to ask why I want to break off the engagement?
00:04:10The priority is solving the problem, isn't it?
00:04:15So, should we sign a contract?
00:04:19No need.
00:04:21There's a camera.
00:04:22I didn't expect him to refuse every penny.
00:04:24When he said leave it to me, his voice was so flat, like he was reading the weather.
00:04:28But those six words, it took me a long time to understand their weight.
00:04:31That was his deepest promise to me.
00:04:33Can I ask you for one thing?
00:04:34Go ahead.
00:04:35It's okay if you don't like me.
00:04:37But you can't be mean to me.
00:04:39What counts as mean?
00:04:41I don't know.
00:04:41I just, I can't stand being treated badly.
00:04:44If I am, I'll make a scene.
00:04:46Okay.
00:04:46Just, okay?
00:04:48You won't have to.
00:04:49When he said that, his eyes completely changed.
00:04:51It was like I'd accidentally hit a switch he'd been hiding for years.
00:04:54I just didn't get it yet.
00:04:56That behind all that coldness was the most protective love I'd ever seen.
00:05:03Sir, everyone's in the conference room.
00:05:08Well, you're busy.
00:05:09I'll go.
00:05:10Fernando will drive you.
00:05:11No need.
00:05:12I drove here.
00:05:14Your front left tire pressure is low.
00:05:15It's safer if he drives you.
00:05:18How do you know my tire pressure is low?
00:05:22I couldn't believe it.
00:05:24I'd been there less than 20 minutes and he'd already checked my car.
00:05:26The whole ride home, I could only think about one thing.
00:05:29If it wasn't about the money, then why did he say yes?
00:05:32Soon, I'd find out.
00:05:33And that answer kept me up all night.
00:06:03Hello?
00:06:33Alejandro, I started packing for Peru.
00:06:34Some things don't need to be said out loud.
00:06:36His silence already answered for him.
00:06:39After that, I traveled across South America.
00:06:41In four months, I didn't think about Matias once.
00:07:12But I kept thinking about someone else.
00:07:13Then come.
00:07:14What I promised, I'll keep.
00:07:16He said then come.
00:07:18Flat as a weather report.
00:07:20But somehow his voice calmed me down instantly.
00:07:22It was like hearing someone say it's fine in the middle of a storm.
00:07:25You know it's not fine, but you believe them anyway.
00:07:28You'd better not let me down.
00:07:29Hmm.
00:07:30I'll be waiting for you to come give me trouble.
00:07:34Please, Alejandro.
00:07:35You're the only one who can help me.
00:07:37I really can't marry Matias.
00:07:39You won't lie to me, right?
00:07:41Get some rest.
00:07:42Come home.
00:07:50He said come home.
00:07:51Not come back to the country, but come home.
00:07:54Like the place I was going back to wasn't a country.
00:07:56It was a person.
00:07:57What I didn't know then was that waiting for me back there wasn't just a broken engagement.
00:08:01But a man who'd been building an entire street for me since five years ago.
00:08:07Four months.
00:08:08The second the plane touched down, I could smell palm trees and the caramel sweetness of toasted crace.
00:08:13I was home.
00:08:15I caught myself scanning the crowd for him, then laughed at myself.
00:08:18A billionaire CEO doesn't pick people up at the airport.
00:08:21Hazelnut oak milk.
00:08:22My favorite.
00:08:22The cup was still warm.
00:08:23He timed it to my landing.
00:08:25Valeria, he didn't come.
00:08:26But he sent a car.
00:08:27And there's a coffee in the back seat.
00:08:30Hazelnut oat milk.
00:08:31Bah, babe.
00:08:33Since when does a business partner remember what coffee you drink?
00:08:35Wake up.
00:08:37Bye, bye, bye.
00:08:38You're blushing.
00:08:39It wasn't blushing.
00:08:40It was...
00:08:40Okay, she was right.
00:08:41But I wasn't going to admit it.
00:08:42Regina greeted me at the door.
00:08:44Big smile.
00:08:45But her hands were clenched.
00:08:47I noticed.
00:08:47Come, come, come.
00:08:48Let Grandpa see.
00:08:50Did you get a tan out there?
00:08:52Grandpa, no way.
00:08:54I put on three layers of sunscreen.
00:08:56Mendoza jeans.
00:08:57We don't tan.
00:08:58By the way, where's Matias?
00:09:00He didn't pick you up from the airport?
00:09:01Grandpa has a weak heart.
00:09:02I couldn't tell him we were breaking off the engagement.
00:09:04Not now.
00:09:04Young people are busy with work.
00:09:06Matias is on a business trip.
00:09:07No rush seeing him.
00:09:08Right.
00:09:08He's traveling.
00:09:09He'll be back soon.
00:09:16Sophia, you were gone four months.
00:09:18Poor Matias had a tough time alone.
00:09:22Thank you for your concern, Auntie Regina.
00:09:27After the wedding, stop running around.
00:09:30Stay by his side.
00:09:31And start calling me mom.
00:09:34Both family's projects are riding on you and Matias.
00:09:37You're a smart girl.
00:09:39You know what's at stake, right?
00:09:40When she said, call me mom, her grip was ten times heavier than her smile.
00:09:44What she didn't know was, I'd already gone running to the other son.
00:09:47The one she raised.
00:09:55I need to tell you something.
00:09:56I had no idea if it was good news or bad.
00:09:59I stared at see you tomorrow for a long time.
00:10:02Three simple words, but somehow they made my heart race.
00:10:05And when he told me the next day, it changed everything.
00:10:08He sent Fernando to pick me up, said we needed to talk.
00:10:12There was a folder on the desk.
00:10:13Thick.
00:10:14His expression made me nervous.
00:10:16Matias and Camila.
00:10:17It's not rumors.
00:10:17It's real.
00:10:19How do you know?
00:10:20I looked into it.
00:10:23For how long?
00:10:27Four months.
00:10:30Four months?
00:10:30You weren't doing nothing.
00:10:32You were investigating the whole time?
00:10:36The wedding announcement was to pressure him.
00:10:39Force him to face reality.
00:10:41Tonight, I'm meeting Matias.
00:10:42He picks.
00:10:44What do you want him to choose?
00:10:47I want him to choose what he actually wants.
00:10:52I wasn't there.
00:10:53Fernando told me everything word for word afterward.
00:10:57You investigated me.
00:10:59Who are you to judge me?
00:11:02I'm not judging you.
00:11:04I'm giving you a choice.
00:11:07Camila or Sofia, pick one.
00:11:11I don't want to give up either of them.
00:11:14Then you'll lose both.
00:11:16Fernando said he was watching from the hallway, hands shaking, because he'd never seen Alejandro
00:11:22with that look in his eyes.
00:11:24It wasn't anger.
00:11:25It was absolute certainty.
00:11:28Your choice.
00:11:29I got it.
00:11:30Camila helped me back then.
00:11:31I can't give her up.
00:11:33Hmm.
00:11:34I don't quite get it.
00:11:36But you don't owe me an explanation.
00:11:38Bro, take care of Sofia for me.
00:11:45What I do and what happens between us, that's none of your business anymore.
00:11:50He said, take care of Sofia for me.
00:11:52Alejandro heard it, but he wasn't doing it because his brother asked.
00:11:55He never needed anyone to tell him to be good to someone.
00:11:58He just needed a reason, and Matias handed him one.
00:12:01He gave the umbrella to his brother and walked into the rain himself.
00:12:08White shirt soaked through, but his pace didn't change.
00:12:13The first thing he did when he got back to his office was make a phone call.
00:12:17To the civil registry.
00:12:21The next morning, he came to pick me up.
00:12:23The first thing out of his mouth was, let's go get our marriage license.
00:12:28Everyone was called to the villa.
00:12:30My heart was pounding so loud I could hear it.
00:12:32Palms drenched, but I didn't dare wipe them because he was standing right next to me.
00:12:35What's so important it has to be said in person?
00:12:38The engagement between Matias and Sofia is off.
00:12:43What do you mean?
00:12:46Grandpa, I'm not good enough for Sofia.
00:12:48Nonsense! What not good enough? Matias, don't say things like that!
00:12:51Quiet!
00:12:52When Matias said not good enough, he wasn't being humble.
00:12:55He meant it.
00:12:56I felt a pang of softness for a split second.
00:12:58But only a second.
00:12:59What about the joint project?
00:13:01If the engagement's off, does the partnership still hold?
00:13:03The family engagement still holds.
00:13:06Sofia won't marry Matias.
00:13:08She's marrying me.
00:13:13What did you just say?
00:13:14Impossible!
00:13:16It's been decided.
00:13:17Sofia, is this what you want?
00:13:19Dad, this is my choice.
00:13:23Okay.
00:13:24The moment Dad nodded, but I held it in.
00:13:26Alejandro was right there.
00:13:28I couldn't let him see me cry.
00:13:29Your brother's fiend.
00:13:38Andre, I'll see you.
00:14:04I don't see a girl.
00:14:07I just felt as high for you.
00:14:07I'm telling you a girl.
00:14:08You're here for your friend and me and I.
00:14:08I'll see you.
00:14:08No flowers, no ring, no wedding.
00:14:11But when he closed the car door, his fingers brushed the back of my hand.
00:14:15So light, like an accident.
00:14:17But if it was an accident, why did they stay there for two full seconds?
00:14:22First day in the new house, I hadn't even finished unpacking, and Matthias showed up.
00:14:28You married him?
00:14:29You actually married him?
00:14:32Matthias.
00:14:34After all these years together, you can just marry my brother just like that?
00:14:39When he rushed at me, I stepped back.
00:14:42Not out of fear, just instinct.
00:14:47So, you were alone your whole childhood?
00:14:49Grandpa was good to me.
00:14:50Besides grandpa?
00:14:51Nobody.
00:14:52It's just a contract, but at least on paper, you have a home now.
00:14:57I'm Sofia Mendoza, Harris to the Mendoza group.
00:15:00I've done some crazy things in my life, but the craziest?
00:15:03Today I'm spending $200 million to propose to my fiancé's own brother.
00:15:07Yeah, I'm putting a ring on it and a green hat on him.
00:15:11Alejandro, this is $200 million.
00:15:13I need you to marry me.
00:15:14What do you mean?
00:15:15You're engaged to Matthias, my brother.
00:15:17I'm breaking it off with him.
00:15:19Had a fight?
00:15:19So now you want to marry his brother out of spite and disgust me in the process?
00:15:23I'm serious.
00:15:24I'll pretend I didn't hear any of that.
00:15:26Alejandro, every woman in town wanted him, but he never cared.
00:15:28What I didn't know then was that his rejection wasn't accidental.
00:15:31He'd been hiding how he felt for years.
00:15:33And he almost gave himself away right there in front of me.
00:15:36I mean it.
00:15:37Please, marry me.
00:15:39Then tell me, what exactly did he do that's so unforgivable?
00:15:44Three months ago at the graduation party, Matthias gave my favorite roses to another woman,
00:15:48right in front of everyone.
00:15:50That's when it hit me.
00:15:51I was the joke in this relationship.
00:15:53Sofia, let me explain.
00:15:54Let's call off the engagement.
00:15:56What?
00:15:56Over one flower?
00:15:57One flower?
00:15:58Matthias, on your birthday you didn't reply to a single text.
00:16:00Who were you with?
00:16:01Last week I had surgery and you said you were on a trip.
00:16:04Where'd you go?
00:16:05That necklace you gave me on Valentine's Day, did you even pick it out yourself?
00:16:07Sofia, there are reasons for all of that.
00:16:10Right.
00:16:11You always have a reason.
00:16:13Your apologies are always right on time.
00:16:15You even say never again so convincingly.
00:16:17But Matthias, I'm done hearing it.
00:16:20Camila and I really are just-
00:16:21You don't need to explain who she is.
00:16:24Just have one question.
00:16:26Do you love her?
00:16:31You can't even say no.
00:16:32I can't explain it.
00:16:34But I don't want to lose you.
00:16:37Can't explain it.
00:16:38That's the clearest answer there is.
00:16:40Let's end the engagement.
00:16:41We're done.
00:16:42His face wasn't surprise.
00:16:44It was guilt.
00:16:45Maybe he'd been waiting for me to say it for a long time.
00:16:48He just didn't have the guts to go first.
00:16:50Fine.
00:16:51I'll be the one to end it.
00:16:54You want to use me to cut things off with Matthias?
00:16:56Give me one reason I should say yes.
00:16:57Your grandfather's been pushing you to get married.
00:16:59If we marry, the family engagement stays intact.
00:17:01You stop getting nagged and both companies keep the project moving.
00:17:03Once it's all settled, we divorce three, four years max.
00:17:06And you walk away with 200 million for free.
00:17:07Three birds, one stone.
00:17:08The way you put it, you'd think I need the money.
00:17:10Then what do you need?
00:17:11Nothing.
00:17:13Sorry, but my marriage is my decision.
00:17:14No need for Miss Mendoza to worry about.
00:17:16But right as he walked out, his lips curved.
00:17:18Just barely.
00:17:19He was laughing at me.
00:17:20The coldest billionaire in the city was laughing at me.
00:17:26Valeria, he said no.
00:17:27What?
00:17:28He turned down 200 million?
00:17:29Is he insane?
00:17:30Yep.
00:17:31Totally bulletproof.
00:17:32So what now?
00:17:33More money.
00:17:34I'm going back tomorrow.
00:17:35No way.
00:17:35I can't crack him.
00:17:36When I said I'm going back tomorrow, even I thought it was funny.
00:17:39Me, Sofia Mendoza.
00:17:41I've never chased anyone in my life, let alone someone who just rejected me.
00:17:45But what I didn't know was, he was waiting for tomorrow, too.
00:17:48Even more than I was.
00:17:52Can I ask you for one thing?
00:17:53Go ahead.
00:17:54It's okay if you don't like me.
00:17:56But you can't be mean to me.
00:17:58What counts as mean?
00:18:00I don't know.
00:18:00I just, I can't stand being treated badly.
00:18:03If I am, I'll make a scene.
00:18:05Okay.
00:18:06Just, okay?
00:18:07You won't have to.
00:18:08When he said that, his eyes completely changed.
00:18:11It was like I'd accidentally hit a switch he'd been hiding for years.
00:18:13I just didn't get it yet.
00:18:15That behind all that coldness was the most protective love I'd ever seen.
00:18:22Sir, everyone's in the conference room.
00:18:27Well, you're busy.
00:18:28I'll go.
00:18:29Fernando will drive you.
00:18:30No need.
00:18:31I drove here.
00:18:32Your front left tire pressure is low.
00:18:34It's safer if he drives you.
00:18:38How do you know my tire pressure is low?
00:18:41I couldn't believe it.
00:18:43I'd been there less than 20 minutes and he'd already checked my car.
00:18:45The whole ride home, I could only think about one thing.
00:18:48If it wasn't about the money, then why did he say yes?
00:18:51Soon, I'd find out.
00:18:52And that answer kept me up all night.
00:19:01Hello?
00:19:02Babe, Mendoza-Castia wedding.
00:19:03It's been all over the business news for three days.
00:19:05You got married and didn't tell me?
00:19:07What?
00:19:08Who's listed as the groom?
00:19:09Matias!
00:19:09They even ran your couple photo-
00:19:13That's impossible.
00:19:13We already?
00:19:14Four months.
00:19:15Alejandro Castillo told me, leave it to me.
00:19:17I'd been overseas doing magazine shoots, thinking everything would be settled by the
00:19:20time I got back.
00:19:21But the headlines were telling me I was still marrying Matias.
00:19:23Four months ago.
00:19:24After I worked out the deal with Alejandro, I started packing for Peru.
00:19:27But before I left, Matias showed up.
00:19:29He brought coffee.
00:19:30Remembered exactly how I like it.
00:19:32A year ago, that would have meant something.
00:19:33Now it just felt exhausting.
00:19:35You haven't been replying much lately.
00:19:36Busy.
00:19:39Sophia, I'm not agreeing to break up.
00:19:42What good does that do?
00:19:43Once things with Camila settles down, I'll-
00:19:45Every sentence you say starts with wait.
00:19:48Matias, I'm done waiting.
00:19:50If I don't like you, who else would I like?
00:19:52You already know the answer.
00:19:53You just don't have the guts to admit it.
00:19:55Some things don't need to be said out loud.
00:19:57His silence already answered for him.
00:20:00After that, I traveled across South America.
00:20:03In four months, I didn't think about Matias once.
00:20:05But I kept thinking about someone else.
00:20:09I called Alejandro.
00:20:10It was 2 a.m. his time.
00:20:12I didn't care.
00:20:17Who's this?
00:20:19Your creditor.
00:20:20Calling me in the middle of the night.
00:20:22What can I do for you, my creditor?
00:20:24The wedding news is all over the headlines.
00:20:26Do you know that?
00:20:27The whole city thinks I'm marrying Matias.
00:20:30What happened to what you promised?
00:20:33You're back the day after tomorrow?
00:20:35Don't change the subject.
00:20:36Then come.
00:20:37What I promised, I'll keep.
00:20:39He said then come.
00:20:41Flat as a weather report.
00:20:43But somehow his voice calmed me down instantly.
00:20:46It was like hearing someone say it's fine in the middle of a storm.
00:20:49You know it's not fine, but you believe them anyway.
00:20:51You'd better not let me down.
00:20:53Hmm.
00:20:54I'll be waiting for you to come give me trouble.
00:20:56Please.
00:20:57Alejandro, you're the only one who can help me.
00:21:00I really can't marry Matias.
00:21:02You won't lie to me?
00:21:04Right?
00:21:04Get some rest.
00:21:05Come home.
00:21:13He said come home.
00:21:15Not come back to the country, but come home.
00:21:17Like the place I was going back to wasn't a country.
00:21:20It was a person.
00:21:20What I didn't know then was that waiting for me back there wasn't just a broken engagement,
00:21:24but a man who'd been building an entire street for me since five years ago.
00:21:32Four months.
00:21:33The second the plane touched down, I could smell palm trees,
00:21:36and the caramel sweetness of toasted crace.
00:21:39I was home.
00:21:40I caught myself scanning the crowd for him, then laughed at myself.
00:21:44A billionaire CEO doesn't pick people up at the airport.
00:21:46Hazelnut oak milk.
00:21:47My favorite.
00:21:48The cup was still warm.
00:21:49He'd timed it to my landing.
00:21:50Valeria, he didn't come.
00:21:52But he sent a car.
00:21:53And?
00:21:53There's a coffee in the back seat.
00:21:55Hazelnut oat milk.
00:21:56Bah, babe.
00:21:58Since when does a business partner remember what coffee you drink?
00:22:01Wake up.
00:22:02Bye, bye, bye.
00:22:03You're blushing.
00:22:04It wasn't blushing.
00:22:05It was...
00:22:06Okay, she was right.
00:22:07But I wasn't going to admit it.
00:22:08Regina greeted me at the door.
00:22:10Big smile.
00:22:11But her hands were clenched.
00:22:12I noticed.
00:22:13Come, come, come.
00:22:13Let Grandpa see.
00:22:15Did you get a tan out there?
00:22:17Grandpa!
00:22:18No way.
00:22:19I put on three layers of sunscreen.
00:22:22Mendoza jeans.
00:22:22We don't tan.
00:22:23By the way, where's Matias?
00:22:25He didn't pick you up from the airport?
00:22:27Grandpa has a weak heart.
00:22:28I couldn't tell him we were breaking off the engagement.
00:22:29Not now.
00:22:30Young people are busy with work.
00:22:31Matias is on a business trip.
00:22:33No rush seeing him.
00:22:33Right.
00:22:34He's traveling.
00:22:35He'll be back soon.
00:22:42Sophia, you were gone four months.
00:22:45Poor Matias had a tough time alone.
00:22:48Thank you for your concern, Auntie Regina.
00:22:53After the wedding, stop running around.
00:22:56Stay by his side.
00:22:57And start calling me mom.
00:23:01Both family's projects are riding on you and Matias.
00:23:04You're a smart girl.
00:23:05You know what's at stake, right?
00:23:07When she said call me mom, her grip was ten times heavier than her smile.
00:23:10What she didn't know was, I'd already gone running to the other son.
00:23:13The one she raised.
00:23:21I need to tell you something.
00:23:23I had no idea if it was good news or bad.
00:23:25I stared at see you tomorrow for a long time.
00:23:28Three simple words, but somehow they made my heart race.
00:23:31And when he told me the next day, it changed everything.
00:23:35He sent Fernando to pick me up, said we needed to talk.
00:23:38There was a folder on the desk.
00:23:40Thick.
00:23:40His expression made me nervous.
00:23:42Matias and Camila.
00:23:43It's not rumors.
00:23:44It's real.
00:23:45How do you know?
00:23:46I looked into it.
00:23:49For how long?
00:23:54Four months.
00:23:56Four months?
00:23:57You weren't doing nothing?
00:23:59You were investigating the whole time?
00:24:02The wedding announcement was to pressure him.
00:24:05Force him to face reality.
00:24:07Tonight, I'm meeting Matias.
00:24:09He picks.
00:24:11What do you want him to choose?
00:24:14I want him to choose what he actually wants.
00:24:20I wasn't there.
00:24:22Fernando told me everything word for word afterward.
00:24:26You investigated me!
00:24:27Who are you to judge me?
00:24:30I'm not judging you.
00:24:33I'm giving you a choice.
00:24:35Camila or Sophia, pick one.
00:24:39I don't want to give up either of them.
00:24:42Then you'll lose both.
00:24:44Fernando said he was watching from the hallway,
00:24:47hands shaking,
00:24:48because he'd never seen Alejandro with that look in his eyes.
00:24:52It wasn't anger.
00:24:53It was absolute certainty.
00:24:56Your choice.
00:24:57I got it.
00:24:58Camila helped me back then.
00:24:59I can't give her up.
00:25:01Hmm.
00:25:02I don't quite get it.
00:25:04But you don't owe me an explanation.
00:25:06Bro, take care of Sophia for me.
00:25:13What I do and what happens between us,
00:25:16that's none of your business anymore.
00:25:18He said take care of Sophia for me.
00:25:20Alejandro heard it,
00:25:21but he wasn't doing it because his brother asked.
00:25:23He never needed anyone to tell him to be good to someone.
00:25:26He just needed a reason.
00:25:28And Matias handed him one.
00:25:31Your brother's fiancé.
00:25:33And you steal her?
00:25:35She's nobody's fiancé.
00:25:36From today, she's my wife.
00:25:40You've always been like this.
00:25:42Everything good, you take it.
00:25:44The company, the estate, and now even your brother's woman.
00:25:48Are you done?
00:25:49I was hiding around the corner.
00:25:51Heard everything.
00:25:52Regina's hatred for him wasn't about me.
00:25:54It started long before.
00:25:55That kind of hate wasn't anger.
00:25:57It was fear.
00:25:58So, we're married?
00:26:01Just like that?
00:26:02We'll have a ceremony later.
00:26:03Let's make it official first.
00:26:06We didn't even take a photo together.
00:26:08Later.
00:26:11No flowers, no ring, no wedding.
00:26:14But when he closed the car door,
00:26:15his fingers brushed the back of my hand.
00:26:17So light.
00:26:18Like an accident.
00:26:20But if it was an accident,
00:26:21why did they stay there for two full seconds?
00:26:24First day in the new house,
00:26:26I hadn't even finished unpacking,
00:26:28and Matias showed up.
00:26:30You married him?
00:26:32You actually married him?
00:26:34Matias.
00:26:36After all these years together,
00:26:38you can just marry my brother just like that?
00:26:41When he rushed at me, I stepped back.
00:26:45Not out of fear.
00:26:46Just instinct.
00:26:55Put your hand down.
00:26:57Bro.
00:26:58She's my fiancé.
00:27:00You broke it off.
00:27:01She's my wife.
00:27:02You took everything from me.
00:27:04Since we were kids, it's all been yours.
00:27:06And now even her-
00:27:07Don't touch her.
00:27:07I won't say it again.
00:27:09Last time I came to talk to you,
00:27:11you made your choice.
00:27:12So don't try to have it both ways.
00:27:24It's over.
00:27:26He won't come back, right?
00:27:31No.
00:27:32I wasn't scared.
00:27:33Don't be scared.
00:27:34When he said don't be scared,
00:27:36his voice was so low only I could hear it.
00:27:39He didn't say, I'll protect you.
00:27:41But those three words said it all.
00:27:43When he held my hand for that one second,
00:27:45my heartbeat changed.
00:27:46Not just faster.
00:27:48Completely different rhythm.
00:27:49I watched his back and thought,
00:27:51what if this isn't just a contract?
00:27:54What if he actually...
00:27:55Then I'm done for.
00:27:58After Matthias left,
00:27:59he said he had work to do
00:28:01and told me to rest.
00:28:02But at 2 a.m. I heard the rain
00:28:04and someone breathing.
00:28:06What are you doing?
00:28:07Why are you still up?
00:28:09Standing in the rain at midnight.
00:28:10What's wrong with you?
00:28:12Old habit.
00:28:13Helps me think.
00:28:15Hold this.
00:28:17Go back to bed.
00:28:19If you're not going in,
00:28:20neither am I.
00:28:21He took the umbrella but didn't open it.
00:28:23Just held it.
00:28:24Like he wasn't used to someone
00:28:25sheltering him from the rain.
00:28:26Is this about Matthias?
00:28:27No.
00:28:28Something much older.
00:28:30How old?
00:28:31Seven.
00:28:32The year my mom died.
00:28:34He said the year my mom died
00:28:35so calmly.
00:28:36Too calmly.
00:28:37That's how I knew
00:28:38the feelings underneath
00:28:38were shattered.
00:28:39Then what?
00:28:40Dad married Regina.
00:28:41She told everyone,
00:28:42Alejandro is the child I love most.
00:28:45And behind closed doors?
00:28:46Moved my room next to the storage closet,
00:28:47threw away my backpack.
00:28:49All my clothes were Matthias' hand-me-downs.
00:28:52Your dad didn't do anything?
00:28:54Busy.
00:28:55She put on a good show in front of him.
00:28:58My whole body went cold listening.
00:29:00Not from the rain,
00:29:01but because he said all of that
00:29:03with zero expression on his face.
00:29:05Like he was reading someone else's story.
00:29:09So,
00:29:10you were alone your whole childhood?
00:29:12Grandpa was good to me.
00:29:13Besides Grandpa?
00:29:15Nobody.
00:29:16It's just a contract,
00:29:18but
00:29:18at least on paper,
00:29:20you have a home now.
00:29:22Yeah.
00:29:23Don't stand in the rain alone anymore.
00:29:25When he said yeah,
00:29:26his voice sounded softened by the rain.
00:29:28For the first time,
00:29:29I realized he wasn't as strong as he looked.
00:29:30He was just really good at pretending.
00:29:32Go change.
00:29:33Don't catch a cold.
00:29:35You stood out there for 30 minutes.
00:29:36You counted?
00:29:37Go dry your hair.
00:29:38Good night.
00:29:3930 minutes.
00:29:40However long he'd been in the rain,
00:29:42that's how long he'd been counting.
00:29:44That night,
00:29:45I couldn't sleep.
00:29:46Tossing and turning.
00:29:47Not because I was cold.
00:29:48Because my heart ached.
00:29:50For someone it shouldn't ache for.
00:29:51And the scariest part,
00:29:52I was starting to realize
00:29:54that his reason for marrying me
00:29:55was so much heavier than I'd thought.
00:29:57Welcome, ma'am.
00:29:58Your room is on the second floor to the left.
00:30:02Sir's study is on the right.
00:30:04Separate rooms?
00:30:05Yes, sir arranged it specifically.
00:30:07Oh, that's nice.
00:30:09Katie,
00:30:09we've got our own room.
00:30:12Separate rooms.
00:30:13Expected.
00:30:14It's a contract marriage,
00:30:15after all.
00:30:16But,
00:30:17arranged specifically?
00:30:18What does specifically mean?
00:30:20To make me feel safe?
00:30:22Or to keep his distance?
00:30:26Spill.
00:30:27Are you two sleeping together?
00:30:32Separate rooms.
00:30:34So boring.
00:30:36But have you two-
00:30:37No!
00:30:38Stop asking!
00:30:39Babe, listen to me.
00:30:40A man who turns down
00:30:41your two-hundred million,
00:30:42helps you break off an engagement,
00:30:44investigates your ex for four months,
00:30:46remembers what coffee you drink,
00:30:47knows about your stomach,
00:30:48and even looked up your cat's name?
00:30:49That's not a contract.
00:30:50That's a crush.
00:30:51You're overthinking it.
00:30:53The grape peeling?
00:30:54That's guilt.
00:30:55After she said that,
00:30:56I spent the entire afternoon
00:30:57thinking about the same thing.
00:30:58A crush?
00:30:59Impossible.
00:31:00He's Alejandro Castillo.
00:31:01It's probably just...
00:31:02professional habit?
00:31:07At your parents'
00:31:08did you eat?
00:31:10Eight?
00:31:11You?
00:31:13Carmen made soup.
00:31:15Want some when you're back?
00:31:16I'll save you a bowl.
00:31:18I'll save you a bowl.
00:31:19Six words.
00:31:20I stared at them
00:31:22for eight seconds.
00:31:23I stood in the kitchen
00:31:24holding that soup
00:31:25for a long time.
00:31:27A voice inside said,
00:31:29Sophia, you're done for.
00:31:31You're falling for someone
00:31:32you're not supposed
00:31:33to feel anything for.
00:31:38day three
00:31:38in the new house.
00:31:42I was still
00:31:42getting used
00:31:43to the rules.
00:31:45But one person
00:31:46was making me
00:31:46uncomfortable.
00:31:48Ma'am,
00:31:49your glass
00:31:49is in the right cabinet,
00:31:50but that cabinet
00:31:51is for sir.
00:31:52Technically,
00:31:53guests should use
00:31:54the one in the living room.
00:31:55I'm not a guest.
00:31:57Of course, of course.
00:31:58Ma'am is definitely
00:31:58not a guest.
00:31:59It's just,
00:32:00everyone knows the deal
00:32:01between you and sir.
00:32:02When the contract's up,
00:32:03you're still a guest.
00:32:03When she said
00:32:04when the contract's up,
00:32:05she was smiling.
00:32:06That wasn't rudeness.
00:32:08It was a test.
00:32:09She was feeling out
00:32:10my limits.
00:32:11Lucia,
00:32:12you don't have to like me,
00:32:13but you will respect me.
00:32:15Remember that.
00:32:22Didn't go out today.
00:32:23Organizing my cameras.
00:32:24You?
00:32:25Meetings all morning?
00:32:26Hmm.
00:32:27You don't look great.
00:32:28Really?
00:32:29Sir,
00:32:31this morning,
00:32:31Lucia said
00:32:32some unkind things
00:32:33to ma'am.
00:32:34What did she say?
00:32:36It's nothing.
00:32:36Not a big deal.
00:32:38She called ma'am
00:32:39a guest who will leave
00:32:39when the contract expires.
00:32:44Carmen,
00:32:45bring Lucia here.
00:32:52What did you say
00:32:53to my wife?
00:32:54Sir,
00:32:55I was just making
00:32:56small talk.
00:32:57Say it again.
00:32:58I said ma'am was a guest.
00:33:00She's not a guest.
00:33:01She is the lady
00:33:02of this house.
00:33:02Everyone here,
00:33:03including you,
00:33:04answers to her.
00:33:05Am I clear?
00:33:06Sir,
00:33:06that's not what I meant.
00:33:07Pack your things.
00:33:08Leave by today.
00:33:09Fernando will settle
00:33:10your pay.
00:33:14Alejandro,
00:33:15isn't firing her
00:33:16a bit much?
00:33:18It isn't.
00:33:24Wasn't that a bit much?
00:33:25She wasn't wrong.
00:33:26We are on a contract.
00:33:27Contract or not,
00:33:28that's between us.
00:33:29But in this house,
00:33:30you are my wife.
00:33:31Nobody gets to talk about you.
00:33:32When he said,
00:33:33you are my wife,
00:33:35his voice was so low
00:33:36only I could hear.
00:33:38That didn't sound like
00:33:39protecting a contract.
00:33:41That sounded like
00:33:42protecting a person.
00:33:43From that,
00:33:44no one in the house
00:33:45ever called me guest again.
00:33:46Carmel B. Later,
00:33:47the last thing he said was,
00:33:48from now on,
00:33:48anything about this house?
00:33:50Ask the lady.
00:33:51The lady decides.
00:33:53Five words.
00:33:54He said them
00:33:54like they weighed nothing.
00:33:55But inside me,
00:33:57a tidal wave.
00:34:00Hold her for a sec.
00:34:01I'll grab her treats.
00:34:05I'm reading.
00:34:07Two minutes.
00:34:09I didn't go get the treats.
00:34:10I hid behind the door
00:34:11and watched.
00:34:15You're just as annoying
00:34:16as your owner.
00:34:18Who's annoying?
00:34:19When did you get back?
00:34:21Just in time to hear
00:34:21as annoying as your owner.
00:34:23The coldest man in the city.
00:34:25Holding a little white cat,
00:34:26sunlight on his face.
00:34:28I had to capture this.
00:34:32What are you doing?
00:34:34Nothing.
00:34:34Just shooting scenery.
00:34:36What scenery is there
00:34:37on a balcony?
00:34:38There is...
00:34:39a pretty nice view.
00:34:42What?
00:34:44I said,
00:34:45the cat looks nice.
00:34:47I wasn't talking about the cat.
00:34:49I set that photo
00:34:50as my album cover.
00:34:51Then I did something
00:34:52really childish.
00:34:53Square face,
00:34:54flat nose,
00:34:54thick lips.
00:34:55Obviously not true.
00:34:56His jawline could cut glass,
00:34:57his nose is sharp,
00:34:58his lips are thin.
00:34:59But I refuse to admit
00:35:00he's good-looked.
00:35:01Because once I did,
00:35:02there'd be no going back.
00:35:03But it was already too late.
00:35:04Sneaking photos of a man,
00:35:06that says it all.
00:35:10Signature, please.
00:35:11Excuse me,
00:35:12who sent this?
00:35:13No idea.
00:35:14Just says Mrs. S.
00:35:16Mrs. S.
00:35:17It's S again.
00:35:18The airport sign
00:35:19was just one letter to S.
00:35:21So beautiful.
00:35:22Ma'am,
00:35:22who sent it?
00:35:23No card.
00:35:24No name.
00:35:27Come in.
00:35:31This,
00:35:32was it from you?
00:35:33What?
00:35:34A seashell wind chime,
00:35:36addressed to Mrs. S.
00:35:38No idea.
00:35:39Besides you,
00:35:39who else would call me S?
00:35:41The airport sign
00:35:42was you too,
00:35:43wasn't it?
00:35:43As long as you like it.
00:35:45You admitted it.
00:35:46I didn't admit anything.
00:35:48Alejandro,
00:35:48this is the first time
00:35:49you've given me something.
00:35:50Hang it on the south balcony.
00:35:53Carmen,
00:35:53does it sound nice?
00:35:54Perfect placement, ma'am.
00:35:56Sir can hear it
00:35:57from his study too.
00:35:58I didn't think about that.
00:36:00Of course I did.
00:36:01I hung it right outside
00:36:02his study,
00:36:03so every time
00:36:04the wind blows,
00:36:05he'd hear it.
00:36:05One second after posting,
00:36:07I regretted it.
00:36:07What if he sees?
00:36:09He definitely's first
00:36:10instantly meant his gift,
00:36:12but I didn't delete it.
00:36:13He liked it.
00:36:14Just a like.
00:36:16A seashell wind chime,
00:36:18the first thing
00:36:18he ever gave me,
00:36:19but I'd find out later
00:36:20it wasn't really the first.
00:36:22No comment.
00:36:23I stared at that like
00:36:24for a full five
00:36:24behind the scenes
00:36:25he'd already given me
00:36:26so much more.
00:36:27I just had no idea.
00:36:31Two weeks into the marriage,
00:36:32I made my first
00:36:33public appearance
00:36:34as Mrs. Castillo.
00:36:36A business gala.
00:36:37I wore the wine red dress
00:36:39he'd bought.
00:36:39If you're uncomfortable,
00:36:41tell me.
00:36:41We can leave anytime.
00:36:42I'm not three years old.
00:36:44You're my wife.
00:36:44More important
00:36:45than a three-year-old.
00:36:46He said,
00:36:47my wife,
00:36:47in public,
00:36:48like it was the most
00:36:49natural thing.
00:36:50Like breathing.
00:36:51I wonder if he noticed
00:36:52I was wearing
00:36:52the dress he picked.
00:36:56So you're the new wife.
00:36:58Hi.
00:36:59Alejandro's taste is
00:37:01surprising.
00:37:03I thought he'd pick
00:37:04someone more
00:37:05suited to him.
00:37:08And you are?
00:37:09Andrea,
00:37:10supermodel.
00:37:11Alejandro and I
00:37:12go way back.
00:37:12Oh,
00:37:13old friends.
00:37:15Then you should know
00:37:16he's married.
00:37:18Married?
00:37:19You sure it'll last?
00:37:20When she said that,
00:37:22her eyes scanned me
00:37:22head to toe.
00:37:23That look wasn't
00:37:24curiosity.
00:37:24It was calculation.
00:37:26She was sizing up
00:37:27whether I was worth
00:37:27competing with.
00:37:36I stood ten feet away.
00:37:38Watched her link her arm
00:37:39through his.
00:37:40He didn't pull away.
00:37:42What's wrong?
00:37:44Tired.
00:37:44I'm leaving.
00:37:45I'll take you.
00:37:47No need.
00:37:47Go hang out
00:37:48with your old friend.
00:37:51Are you angry?
00:37:52I'm not angry.
00:37:53I just don't want to be here.
00:37:55Andrea and I have nothing going on.
00:37:57You don't owe me an explanation.
00:37:59We're on a contract.
00:38:00Who you're friends with
00:38:01isn't my business.
00:38:03Are you really not angry?
00:38:05I said I'm not angry.
00:38:07When you're angry,
00:38:08you talk faster.
00:38:09He even knows I talk faster
00:38:11when I'm mad.
00:38:12I wanted to hit him,
00:38:13but I was angrier at myself.
00:38:15Why was I jealous?
00:38:16That night in bed,
00:38:18I spent a whole hour wondering
00:38:19when she linked arms with him.
00:38:21Was he uncomfortable?
00:38:22Even a little?
00:38:23One week later,
00:38:24I took on a magazine cover shoot.
00:38:26Photographer was my old friend Miguel
00:38:27and I was doing the retouching.
00:38:29Got to the set
00:38:29and found out the cover model
00:38:30was Andrea.
00:38:31What a coincidence.
00:38:32Mrs. Castillo takes on magazine gigs.
00:38:34I thought heiresses didn't need to work.
00:38:35I like working.
00:38:36It has nothing to do with needing to.
00:38:40True.
00:38:40After all,
00:38:41your marriage is basically a job, right?
00:38:48Alejandro,
00:38:49what are you doing here?
00:38:50Picking someone up.
00:38:52It's been so long.
00:38:54Dinner sometime?
00:38:57Let go.
00:38:58When he said let go,
00:38:59it wasn't loud.
00:39:01But the entire studio went silent.
00:39:03Like the volume was turned to zero.
00:39:06Let's go.
00:39:08Alejandro,
00:39:09aren't you being a bit cold?
00:39:10We've known each other for years.
00:39:12I heard you push someone here.
00:39:14That was nothing.
00:39:18Andrea,
00:39:19I'll say this once.
00:39:20She is my wife.
00:39:21If she says there's a problem with you,
00:39:22then there's a problem.
00:39:23If she says no working together,
00:39:24then it's off.
00:39:24You don't have to like me,
00:39:25but you do not get to make her unhappy.
00:39:27Clear?
00:39:27He said she is my wife in front of everyone.
00:39:29It wasn't a declaration,
00:39:30it was a warning.
00:39:32Sofia,
00:39:33I was out of line.
00:39:35I'm sorry.
00:39:36Apology accepted,
00:39:37but from now on,
00:39:39wherever it is,
00:39:39don't touch my people.
00:39:41I-
00:39:41She apologized,
00:39:42but her eyes told me this wasn't over.
00:39:44She wasn't giving up on Alejandro that easily.
00:39:46But that's a problem for later.
00:39:48Right now,
00:39:49he was all I cared about.
00:39:54When you just said I was your wife?
00:39:57Hmm.
00:39:58Sounded really serious.
00:40:01Because I mean it.
00:40:03He said because I mean it,
00:40:04and my heart slipped a beat.
00:40:06In that moment,
00:40:06I thought,
00:40:07what if this wasn't a contract?
00:40:08What if he was actually the one I chose?
00:40:10How good would that be?
00:40:11But I didn't dare follow that thought,
00:40:13because once I did,
00:40:14there'd be no turning back.
00:40:17Valeria dragged me to a bar,
00:40:18said I'd gotten boring since the wedding.
00:40:20Three tequilas later,
00:40:21I agreed with her.
00:40:23Come on.
00:40:24To your contract marriage.
00:40:25To my ice cube husband.
00:40:29For real though,
00:40:30do you have feelings for him or not?
00:40:32No.
00:40:33Liar.
00:40:34Your eyes light up every time you mention him?
00:40:36Do this?
00:40:36Yes.
00:40:37Like a Christmas tree.
00:40:39Two more drinks later,
00:40:40my phone rang.
00:40:41On the screen,
00:40:43square face,
00:40:43flat nose,
00:40:44thick lips.
00:40:46Square face,
00:40:47flat nose,
00:40:47thick lips.
00:40:48That's Alejandro.
00:40:50Hello?
00:40:51Where are you?
00:40:52Bar with Valeria.
00:40:53How much did you drink?
00:40:55Three,
00:40:55no wait,
00:40:57five,
00:40:57maybe seven?
00:40:58Send me your location,
00:40:59I'm coming to get you.
00:41:00No need,
00:41:00I'll just get a ride.
00:41:01Send,
00:41:01the location.
00:41:14Rose doesn't know,
00:41:15right?
00:41:16Don't worry.
00:41:18Please,
00:41:19save my baby.
00:41:20142 days.
00:41:21You've come too far
00:41:22to lose this baby now.
00:41:24You've spent 142 days
00:41:25in that bed
00:41:25and endured over 300 injections
00:41:27just to keep this baby.
00:41:29we've got you.
00:41:40All right, baby.
00:41:43Let's go find Daddy.
00:41:48Thanks, babe,
00:41:49for making me a dad.
00:41:54Rose doesn't know, right?
00:41:56Don't worry.
00:41:57I was careful
00:41:58when I switched the babies.
00:42:00She won't suspect a thing.
00:42:02She's probably still dreaming
00:42:04about being a good mom.
00:42:11They switched my baby
00:42:13and are plotting
00:42:13to steal my property!
00:42:15She'll never know
00:42:16that the baby
00:42:17she's holding isn't hers.
00:42:18I already threw her baby
00:42:19outside without a blanket.
00:42:21It's probably died
00:42:21from the cold by now.
00:42:23Babe,
00:42:23when do we tell Rose?
00:42:25Watching you live with her?
00:42:27Join her family?
00:42:29While she raises our child
00:42:30with her last name?
00:42:31It makes me crazy!
00:42:33Just be patient, honey.
00:42:35The company's still
00:42:36that stupid woman's
00:42:37premarital asset.
00:42:38But don't worry.
00:42:39When our baby gets older,
00:42:41she'll sign it over to him.
00:42:42She'll never know.
00:42:48In the end,
00:42:49we'll be living in her house,
00:42:50spending her money.
00:42:52And Rose?
00:42:54She'll be left with nothing,
00:42:55kicked out like a dog.
00:42:57The husband I trusted
00:42:58and loved so much
00:42:59is cheating on me
00:43:00with my trusted apprentice,
00:43:02the one I promoted.
00:43:03They switched my baby
00:43:05and are plotting
00:43:05to steal my property!
00:43:18Let me see the baby.
00:43:25Mrs. Carter,
00:43:27congrats on having a baby.
00:43:28Your son is so cute.
00:43:40Of course I forgive my son.
00:43:44Happy birthday to you!
00:43:56Babe, I thought you were busy today
00:43:58and couldn't celebrate
00:43:59Percy's birthday.
00:44:00So I went ahead
00:44:01and started the party.
00:44:03Percy is my son.
00:44:04How could I miss his birthday?
00:44:07You missed my party again?
00:44:08I told my friends
00:44:09we were going to a Michelin spot!
00:44:12Now I look like a joke!
00:44:13Percy,
00:44:14you can't talk to mom like that.
00:44:15She's working hard
00:44:16to support you.
00:44:17You know she loves you
00:44:18more than anything.
00:44:19Mrs. Carter,
00:44:19you're a great mother.
00:44:21He's just a kid.
00:44:22I'm sure you understand.
00:44:23Of course I forgive my son.
00:44:26But,
00:44:27Sarah,
00:44:28I thought you were supposed
00:44:29to be at a meeting
00:44:30this afternoon?
00:44:31Why are you here?
00:44:33Oh, well,
00:44:34Miss Carter,
00:44:35I...
00:44:36Sarah,
00:44:37it's like this, babe.
00:44:39Don't you remember?
00:44:39You were busy last week
00:44:41and Percy had a football game.
00:44:43Sarah came to watch it,
00:44:44so I invited her over
00:44:45today to thank her.
00:44:47You too.
00:44:51Oh, right,
00:44:52Miss Carter.
00:44:53You've always supported
00:44:54and guided me at work.
00:44:55I'm so grateful
00:44:56and I wanted to repay you,
00:44:58so as soon as Mr. Reid called,
00:44:59I came right over.
00:45:02Miss Carter,
00:45:03Percy is just
00:45:04so adorable.
00:45:06I really want to be
00:45:07close to him.
00:45:09Surely you don't
00:45:10mind,
00:45:11right?
00:45:14Then let's do
00:45:15what Percy wants.
00:45:16I will go back
00:45:16to my office.
00:45:19Why would I?
00:45:20I'm always busy
00:45:20with work.
00:45:22So I'm really grateful
00:45:23you're there for Percy.
00:45:26Oh, no need for thanks,
00:45:27Miss Carter.
00:45:28It's what I should do.
00:45:29Mom,
00:45:30are you going to the office
00:45:30later?
00:45:32Babe,
00:45:33did you really finish
00:45:34your work?
00:45:34I remember you have
00:45:35a board meeting
00:45:36this evening, right?
00:45:37It's okay if you need
00:45:38to go.
00:45:39Percy will understand.
00:45:40What does Percy
00:45:41want Mommy to do?
00:45:41I can cancel
00:45:42the meeting for you.
00:45:43I want Mommy
00:45:44to go to work
00:45:45so Aunt Sarah
00:45:45can stay here
00:45:46with me and Daddy.
00:45:47But Mommy,
00:45:48please book the
00:45:49Michelin restaurant
00:45:50for us.
00:45:52Percy!
00:45:55Babe,
00:45:56that's not what
00:45:57Percy meant.
00:45:58He's just worried
00:45:58about your work.
00:45:59Last time,
00:46:00he even told me
00:46:01not to bother you
00:46:02because you're so busy.
00:46:03Right, Miss Carter.
00:46:04Percy's such a
00:46:05thoughtful kid.
00:46:06Only someone
00:46:07as amazing as you
00:46:08could raise a son
00:46:08like him.
00:46:09Such a good boy.
00:46:12Then let's do
00:46:12what Percy wants.
00:46:13I will go back
00:46:14to my office
00:46:15and book a
00:46:16Michelin three-star
00:46:17restaurant for you three.
00:46:21I love you forever,
00:46:22babe.
00:46:23Take care.
00:46:26Miss Carter,
00:46:27your son is so adorable
00:46:29and your husband
00:46:30is so nice.
00:46:31You are a lucky woman.
00:46:33No worries,
00:46:34Miss Carter.
00:46:35Just focus on work.
00:46:36I'll take good care
00:46:37of them at home.
00:46:43Percy,
00:46:44Daddy and Aunt Sarah
00:46:45have something to do.
00:46:46Go play
00:46:46and we'll go to
00:46:47the fancy restaurant
00:46:48later, okay?
00:46:55I missed you so much.

00:47:06dollars mattress
00:47:07she owns.
00:47:11Still playing games?
00:47:12You are always
00:47:13so confident.
00:47:14Look at this score.
00:47:22Hi, Miss Carter.
00:47:24Hi, Miss Carter.
00:47:25Hi, Miss Carter.
00:47:26Mrs. Carter,
00:47:28this is organic produce
00:47:29from our farm.
00:47:30Very healthy.
00:47:31I'll cook for you
00:47:31and Percy later.
00:47:38Miss Carter,
00:47:40I'm thinking of
00:47:41starting my own business,
00:47:43but I'm still short
00:47:44on startup funds.
00:47:45Would you help me?
00:47:50Sure.
00:47:51No problem.
00:47:54All right,
00:47:55it's settled.
00:47:55Let's eat.
00:48:12Percy,
00:48:13your SAT score
00:48:14is coming out soon,
00:48:15right?
00:48:17Yeah,
00:48:18it's tomorrow.
00:48:18Oh,
00:48:19tomorrow's a big day
00:48:20for Percy.
00:48:20I can't miss it.
00:48:22I'll come too.
00:48:23Percy,
00:48:23feeling confident?
00:48:25Yeah,
00:48:26don't worry,
00:48:26Aunt Sarah.
00:48:29Still playing games?
00:48:30You are always
00:48:31so confident.
00:48:31Look at this score.
00:48:38You can't even get
00:48:39into community college
00:48:40with this.
00:48:41It's a hell
00:48:41to fitter scully
00:48:42the Tyler.
00:48:43To can't your spunk lane.
00:48:44So what?
00:48:45We're rich.
00:48:46Mom can just fund a building
00:48:47and buy my way in.
00:48:51Your wife's still out there.
00:48:52Don't let her hear us.
00:48:54Your mom can help you,
00:48:55but that doesn't mean
00:48:56you can do whatever you want.
00:48:57She's even planning
00:48:58to retire early.
00:49:02But with your low score
00:49:03and you acting like this,
00:49:04how's she supposed
00:49:05to trust you
00:49:05with the company?
00:49:06Exactly,
00:49:07Percy.
00:49:07Even though Miss Carter
00:49:08is your mom
00:49:08and would never give up on you,
00:49:10you've still got to try hard
00:49:11and show some ambition.
00:49:14If you don't,
00:49:15how will you make the board
00:49:17at the company
00:49:17respect you
00:49:18when you take over?
00:49:20It's fine.
00:49:21I've already planned
00:49:21everything out for Percy.
00:49:23Over the summer,
00:49:24he'll come with me
00:49:25to get some experience
00:49:25in the company.
00:49:27Then,
00:49:27I will send him
00:49:28to study at a university
00:49:29in Europe.
00:49:30When he's back,
00:49:32he'll take over the company.
00:49:33Mom,
00:49:34you're the best!
00:49:35I'll just go do
00:49:36the dishes now.
00:49:38Babe,
00:49:39I'll give Sarah a hand.
00:49:42Mom,
00:49:42I'm heading to my room.
00:49:43Love you.
00:49:44From this day forward,
00:49:46they think I won't
00:49:47suspect a thing.
00:49:49He's back.
00:49:55He's back.
00:49:57So they're getting
00:49:58way more ballacy.
00:49:59Your wife's still out there.
00:50:01Don't let her hear us.
00:50:02That stupid woman
00:50:03won't find out.
00:50:04I can't believe
00:50:05how smoothly
00:50:06everything is going.
00:50:08Once that fool
00:50:09hands the company
00:50:10over to Percy,
00:50:11I'll sleep with you
00:50:12right in front of her.
00:50:14They're mocking
00:50:15my blindness. I'm just
00:50:17watching them dig their graves.
00:50:20Thank you all for coming today.
00:50:23Since Percy Carter went to Europe,
00:50:25Sarah doesn't come to my house anymore.
00:50:27Instead, Tyler
00:50:28spends more time out.
00:50:30Every time he's impeccably dressed.
00:50:33Honey, I've got a golf game with the boys
00:50:35tonight. See you later. Bye.
00:50:39We're all just waiting for the
00:50:41final act to begin.
00:50:48Dad! And
00:50:49Sarah! Percy!
00:50:51I missed you so much! Let me
00:50:53take a good look at you. Have you lost weight?
00:50:55I'm doing great. Alright, calm
00:50:57down. His own mom isn't as excited as you are.
00:51:02Sorry,
00:51:03Miss Carter. You know how much I adore
00:51:05Percy. I just got a little carried away.
00:51:07Mom, I'm back.
00:51:09When are you handing the company over to me?
00:51:13Let's go. I've already arranged the press
00:51:15conference. I'll announce everything there.
00:51:18What do you
00:51:19think Miss Carter's announcement is this time?
00:51:21Probably another major deal. You know how powerful she
00:51:23is.
00:51:26Look!
00:51:27There's Miss Carter! Thank you
00:51:29all for coming today.
00:51:33I'm here to announce that, effective
00:51:34immediately, I'm stepping down from my positions
00:51:36at Carter Group.
00:51:39All of my assets and
00:51:41shares will be transferred to Percy Carter.
00:51:42He will take over as the CEO of
00:51:44Carter Group.
00:51:51Miss Carter is still so young
00:51:53and she's handing everything to her son?
00:51:54That's real motherly love. Wish I had a mom like that.
00:52:01Wait, isn't that Miss Carter's
00:52:02husband? Why is he holding hands with another woman?
00:52:04Oh my god, I recognize her. She's the woman
00:52:06Miss Carter promoted herself, her most trusted
00:52:08apprentice.
00:52:12I have an announcement.
00:52:14Percy Carter is actually my
00:52:16biological son.
00:52:22Thank you, Miss Carter, for raising my son all these years.
00:52:26But now, it's time
00:52:28for you to return
00:52:29my son to me.
00:52:31Right.
00:52:32Now!
00:52:36Shut up!
00:52:37A bunch of idiots!
00:52:38Why should our family concern you?
00:52:40Without Miss Carter's guidance,
00:52:41she wouldn't be here today.
00:52:42How could she betray her
00:52:44benefactor like that?
00:52:45Sleeping with Miss Carter's husband
00:52:46and even letting Miss Carter
00:52:47raise her son!
00:52:49Carter just signed the transfer of shares
00:52:50and now she's here claiming her son.
00:52:52This must be a premeditated scheme.
00:52:54So what?
00:52:55I just made a mistake that every man makes.
00:52:58Rose,
00:52:58even though you've always been good to me,
00:53:00I've never loved you,
00:53:01but I've always loved as Sarah.
00:53:03I hope you understand.
00:53:05Marriage isn't a chain for true love.
00:53:08What do you think?
00:53:13Mom,
00:53:14this is the last time I'm calling you that.
00:53:16You've raised me for over 20 years,
00:53:18but I'm not your real son.
00:53:19Blood is everything.
00:53:20Compared to the three of us,
00:53:21you're an outsider.
00:53:22Rose, you're broke.
00:53:23A beggar on the street
00:53:25has more money than you.
00:53:26Sign the divorce papers
00:53:27and get out of my life.
00:53:28Right now.
00:53:28You are not worthy of me.
00:53:30Hey,
00:53:31considering how much you've done for me,
00:53:33I'll make sure to give you
00:53:33$100 a month for your pension.
00:53:35Percy Carter is such a monster.
00:53:36Miss Carter treated him like her own son,
00:53:38even just handed him her entire fortune.
00:53:39Then he turns around
00:53:40and claims someone else as his mom.
00:53:42And a hundred bucks a month?
00:53:43How shameless!
00:53:44Exactly!
00:53:44This family is disgusting!
00:53:45They've gone too far!
00:53:46Shut up!
00:53:47A bunch of idiots!
00:53:47Why should our family concern you?
00:53:49Rose,
00:53:50just sign the papers.
00:53:51I will let you leave
00:53:52with some dignity, okay?
00:53:54Alright.
00:53:57It's real.
00:53:58She actually signed it.
00:54:00Rose, I admit,
00:54:01you're brilliant in business.
00:54:02But so what?
00:54:03Your son,
00:54:03your husband,
00:54:04your life,
00:54:05everything now belongs to me.
00:54:06And that mansion worth billions
00:54:07is ours now.
00:54:08As for you,
00:54:09just live on your $100 a month
00:54:10and stay out of sight.
00:54:13With this quality,
00:54:15it's priceless!
00:54:19Don't be in such a hurry.
00:54:21You've prepared
00:54:21such a big surprise for me.
00:54:23Now,
00:54:23I have a big gift
00:54:25to return to you.
00:54:26Bring it up.
00:54:29Rose,
00:54:29what game are you playing now?
00:54:31Rose,
00:54:31I'm warning you.
00:54:32You have nothing left now.
00:54:34Don't even think about
00:54:35turning things around.
00:54:36Don't worry.
00:54:36This is a family heirloom
00:54:37from the Carter family.
00:54:38It was originally meant for you,
00:54:40since you're the heir I've chosen.
00:54:41Blood or not,
00:54:42you are my son.
00:54:44Tyler,
00:54:45you are always my true love.
00:54:47This heirly is for both of you
00:54:48much happiness.
00:54:50Are you pulling a trick?
00:54:54It's an antique!
00:54:56With this quality,
00:54:57it's priceless!
00:55:02This is really
00:55:03the Carter family heirloom.
00:55:06Has Ms. Carter gone crazy?
00:55:08She's giving away
00:55:09the family heirloom
00:55:10just like that?
00:55:11Blessing these ungrateful people?
00:55:18I'm changing it back to Reed.
00:55:20There is no Carter group anymore.
00:55:21Her husband and son
00:55:22she loves these years
00:55:23take everything and run off.
00:55:24Now she's got nothing.
00:55:25Who could handle that?
00:55:25That's so humiliating.
00:55:27She's a total doormat.
00:55:28No wonder she ended up
00:55:29with nothing.
00:55:32Rose,
00:55:33I gotta hand it to you.
00:55:34When you helped me before,
00:55:35I thought you were just
00:55:35being naive.
00:55:37But now,
00:55:38now you've got me
00:55:38thinking differently.
00:55:39You're not just naive.
00:55:41You're a pathetic,
00:55:42worthless lowlife!
00:55:44Gotta give it to you.
00:55:45Good thing you're not
00:55:45my real mom
00:55:46or I'd be so embarrassed.
00:55:47From now on,
00:55:48I'm done with the Carter name.
00:55:50I'm changing it back
00:55:51to Reed.
00:55:51There is no Carter group anymore.
00:55:53I'll take Reed group
00:55:54to the next level!
00:55:55Rose,
00:55:55marrying a stupid like you
00:55:56is the most disgusting
00:55:57thing in my life.
00:55:58Don't ever show up
00:55:59in front of us.
00:56:03Ms. Carter,
00:56:04how do you feel now
00:56:04that everyone's
00:56:05turned their back on you?
00:56:05Ms. Carter,
00:56:06your divorce is all
00:56:06over social media right now.
00:56:07Is this a PR stunt?
00:56:08You've been dominating
00:56:09the business world
00:56:10for years.
00:56:10Would you really just
00:56:11give it all away like this?
00:56:12Or is this some kind of setup?
00:56:13Fight back,
00:56:14Ms. Carter!
00:56:15I'll be your lawyer!
00:56:19Thanks,
00:56:20but no need.
00:56:24Don't even think about
00:56:25coming near my husband
00:56:26or my son again.
00:56:27This has to be hype.
00:56:28There's no way
00:56:28she's handling all of this
00:56:29like it's nothing.
00:56:30Come on,
00:56:30don't just take this.
00:56:31Show them who's boss.
00:56:32She's a joke!
00:56:41Here's your trash.
00:56:43We've got nothing
00:56:43to do with you anymore.
00:56:45Did you hear that?
00:56:47Failure.
00:56:48I know my darling
00:56:49is warm-hearted
00:56:50or a beggar like you
00:56:51couldn't even walk
00:56:52into a fancy neighborhood
00:56:53with your trash.
00:56:58And listen,
00:56:59don't even think about
00:57:00coming near my husband
00:57:01or my son again.
00:57:03Or I'll make sure
00:57:04you regret it.
00:57:09You're a mess.
00:57:11Here's your 100 bucks.
00:57:12Don't say
00:57:12I didn't take care of you.
00:57:26Rose doesn't know, right?
00:57:28Don't worry.
00:57:30Please,
00:57:31save my baby.
00:57:33142 days.
00:57:33You've come too far
00:57:35to lose this baby now.
00:57:36You've spent 142 days
00:57:37in that bed
00:57:38and endured over 300 injections
00:57:39just to keep this baby.
00:57:42We've got you.
00:57:53All right, baby.
00:57:55Let's go find Daddy.
00:58:00Thanks, babe,
00:58:01for making me a dad.
00:58:06Rose doesn't know, right?
00:58:08Don't worry.
00:58:10I was careful
00:58:10when I switched the babies.
00:58:13She won't suspect a thing.
00:58:15She's probably still dreaming
00:58:16about being a good mom.
00:58:23They switched my baby
00:58:25and are plotting
00:58:25to steal my property!
00:58:28She'll never know
00:58:29that the baby she's holding
00:58:30isn't hers.
00:58:30I already threw her baby
00:58:32outside without a blanket.
00:58:33It's probably died
00:58:34from the cold by now.
00:58:35Babe,
00:58:36when do we tell Rose?
00:58:37Watching you live with her?
00:58:39Join her family?
00:58:41While she raises our child
00:58:42with her last name?
00:58:44It makes me crazy!
00:58:45Just be patient, honey.
00:58:47The company's still
00:58:48that stupid woman's
00:58:49premarital asset.
00:58:51But don't worry.
00:58:52When our baby gets older,
00:58:53she'll sign it over to him.
00:58:55She'll never know.
00:59:00In the end,
00:59:01we'll be living in her house,
00:59:03spending her money.
00:59:04And Rose?
00:59:06She'll be left with nothing,
00:59:08kicked out like a dog.
00:59:09The husband I trusted
00:59:10and loved so much
00:59:11is cheating on me
00:59:12with my trusted apprentice,
00:59:14the one I promoted.
00:59:16They switched my baby
00:59:17and are plotting
00:59:18to steal my property!
00:59:31Let me see the baby.
00:59:37Mrs. Carter,
00:59:39congrats on having a baby.
00:59:40Your son is so cute.
00:59:53Of course I forgive my son.
00:59:57Happy birthday to you!
01:00:08Babe, I thought you were busy today
01:00:10and couldn't celebrate
01:00:11Percy's birthday.
01:00:12So I went ahead
01:00:13and started the party.
01:00:15Percy is my son.
01:00:17How could I miss his birthday?
01:00:19You missed my party again?
01:00:21I told my friends
01:00:22we were going to a Michelin spot!
01:00:24Now I look like a joke!
01:00:26Percy,
01:00:26you can't talk to Mom like that.
01:00:27She's working hard to support you.
01:00:29You know she loves you
01:00:30more than anything.
01:00:31Mrs. Carter,
01:00:32you're a great mother.
01:00:33He's just a kid.
01:00:34I'm sure you understand.
01:00:36Of course I forgive my son.
01:00:38But,
01:00:39Sarah,
01:00:41I thought you were supposed
01:00:42to be at a meeting this afternoon?
01:00:44Why are you here?
01:00:45Oh, well,
01:00:46Miss Carter,
01:00:47I...
01:00:48Sarah,
01:00:50it's like this, babe.
01:00:51Don't you remember?
01:00:52You were busy last week
01:00:53and Percy had a football game.
01:00:55Sarah came to watch it,
01:00:57so I invited her over today
01:00:58to thank her.
01:00:59You too.
01:01:03Oh, right,
01:01:04Miss Carter.
01:01:05You've always supported
01:01:06and guided me at work.
01:01:07I'm so grateful
01:01:08and I wanted to repay you,
01:01:10so as soon as Mr. Reid called,
01:01:11I came right over.
01:01:14Miss Carter,
01:01:15Percy is just so adorable.
01:01:18I really want to be close to him.
01:01:21Surely you don't mind,
01:01:23right?
01:01:26Then let's do what Percy wants.
01:01:28I will go back to my office.
01:01:31Why would I?
01:01:32I'm always busy with work.
01:01:34So I'm really grateful
01:01:36you're there for Percy.
01:01:38Oh, no need for thanks,
01:01:40Miss Carter.
01:01:40It's what I should do.
01:01:41Mom,
01:01:42are you going to the office later?
01:01:44Babe,
01:01:45did you really finish your work?
01:01:46I remember you have
01:01:47a board meeting this evening, right?
01:01:49It's okay if you need to go.
01:01:51Percy will understand.
01:01:52What does Percy want Mommy to do?
01:01:54I can cancel the meeting for you.
01:01:55I want Mommy to go to work
01:01:57so Aunt Sarah can stay here
01:01:58with me and Daddy.
01:01:59But Mommy,
01:02:00please book the Michelin restaurant
01:02:02for us.
01:02:04Percy!
01:02:08Babe,
01:02:08that's not what Percy meant.
01:02:10He's just worried about your work.
01:02:12Last time,
01:02:12he even told me not to bother you
01:02:14because you're so busy.
01:02:15Right, Miss Carter.
01:02:16Percy's such a thoughtful kid.
01:02:18Only someone as amazing as you
01:02:20could raise a son like him.
01:02:22Such a good boy.
01:02:24Then let's do what Percy wants.
01:02:26I will go back to my office
01:02:27and book a Michelin three-star restaurant
01:02:30for you three.
01:02:33I love you forever, babe.
01:02:35Take care.
01:02:38Miss Carter,
01:02:39your son is so adorable
01:02:41and your husband is so nice.
01:02:43You are a lucky woman.
01:02:45No worries, Miss Carter.
01:02:47Just focus on work.
01:02:49I'll take good care of him at home.
01:02:55Percy,
01:02:56Daddy and Aunt Sarah
01:02:57have something to do.
01:02:58Go play.
01:02:59And we'll go to the fancy restaurant
01:03:00later, okay?
01:03:07I missed you so much.
01:03:11Today,
01:03:12I'm eating at the Michelin restaurant
01:03:14your wife booked
01:03:16and sleeping on the
01:03:18two million dollars mattress
01:03:19she owns.
01:03:23Still playing games?
01:03:24You are always so confident.
01:03:26Look at this score.
01:03:34Hi, Miss Carter.
01:03:39Mrs. Carter,
01:03:40this is organic produce
01:03:41from our farm.
01:03:42Very healthy.
01:03:42I'll cook for you
01:03:44and Percy later.
01:03:51Miss Carter,
01:03:52I'm thinking of
01:03:53starting my own business,
01:03:55but I'm still short
01:03:56on startup funds.
01:03:57Would you help me?
01:04:03Sure.
01:04:04No problem.
01:04:06All right,
01:04:07it's settled.
01:04:07Let's eat.
01:04:11Let's eat.
01:04:24Percy,
01:04:25your SAT score
01:04:26is coming out soon, right?
01:04:29Yeah, it's tomorrow.
01:04:31Oh, tomorrow's a big day
01:04:32for Percy.
01:04:33I can't miss it.
01:04:34I'll come too.
01:04:35Percy,
01:04:36feeling confident?
01:04:37Yeah,
01:04:38don't worry,
01:04:38Aunt Sarah.
01:04:41Still playing games?
01:04:42You are always so confident.
01:04:44Look at this score.
01:04:50You can't even get
01:04:51into community college
01:04:52with this.
01:04:53If the hell
01:04:54the fitter,
01:04:54scully,
01:04:54the tiler.
01:04:55To can't your spunk lane.
01:04:57So what?
01:04:57We're rich.
01:04:58Mom can just fund a building
01:04:59and buy my way in.
01:05:03Your wife's still out there.
01:05:05Don't let her hear us.
01:05:06Your mom can help you,
01:05:07but that doesn't mean
01:05:08you can do whatever you want.
01:05:10She's even planning
01:05:10to retire early.
01:05:14But with your low score
01:05:15and you acting like this,
01:05:16how's she supposed
01:05:17to trust you
01:05:17with the company?
01:05:18Exactly, Percy.
01:05:19Even though Miss Carter
01:05:20is your mom
01:05:21and would never give up on you,
01:05:22you've still got to try hard
01:05:23and show some ambition.
01:05:26If you don't,
01:05:28how will you make
01:05:29the board at the company
01:05:29respect you
01:05:30when you take over?
01:05:32It's fine.
01:05:33I've already planned
01:05:34everything out for Percy.
01:05:35Over the summer,
01:05:36he'll come with me
01:05:37to get some experience
01:05:38in the company.
01:05:38Then,
01:05:39I will send him
01:05:40to study
01:05:40at a university
01:05:41in Europe.
01:05:42When he's back,
01:05:44he'll take over
01:05:45the company.
01:05:46Mom,
01:05:46you're the best!
01:05:48I'll just go do
01:05:48the dishes now.
01:05:50Babe,
01:05:51I'll give Sarah a hand.
01:05:54Mom,
01:05:55I'm heading to my room.
01:05:56Love you.
01:05:56From this day forward,
01:05:58they think
01:05:58I won't suspect a thing.
01:06:10So they're getting
01:06:10way more ballacy.
01:06:12Your wife's still out there.
01:06:13Don't let her hear us.
01:06:14That stupid woman
01:06:15won't find out.
01:06:17I can't believe
01:06:17how smoothly
01:06:18everything is going.
01:06:21Once that fool
01:06:22hands the company
01:06:22over to Percy,
01:06:23I'll sleep with you
01:06:24right in front of her.
01:06:26They're mocking
01:06:27my blindness.
01:06:28I'm just watching
01:06:29them dig their graves.
01:06:33Thank you all
01:06:34for coming today.
01:06:35Since Percy Carter
01:06:36went to Europe,
01:06:37Sarah doesn't come
01:06:38to my house anymore.
01:06:40Instead,
01:06:40Tyler spends
01:06:41more time out.
01:06:43Every time,
01:06:44he's impeccably dressed.
01:06:45Honey,
01:06:46I've got a golf game
01:06:46with the boys tonight.
01:06:47See you later.
01:06:48Bye.
01:06:51We're all just waiting
01:06:52for the final act
01:06:53to begin.
01:07:00Dad!
01:07:01And Sarah!
01:07:03Percy!
01:07:03I missed you so much!
01:07:05Let me take a good
01:07:05look at you.
01:07:06Have you lost weight?
01:07:07I'm doing great.
01:07:08Alright, calm down.
01:07:09His own mom
01:07:10isn't as excited
01:07:10as you are.
01:07:14Sorry, Miss Carter.
01:07:16You know how much
01:07:16I adore Percy.
01:07:17I just got a little
01:07:18carried away.
01:07:20Mom, I'm back.
01:07:21When are you handing
01:07:22the company over to me?
01:07:25Let's go.
01:07:26I've already arranged
01:07:27the press conference.
01:07:28I'll announce
01:07:28everything there.
01:07:30What do you think
01:07:31Miss Carter's
01:07:32announcement is
01:07:32this time?
01:07:33Probably another
01:07:34major deal.
01:07:34You know how
01:07:34powerful she is.
01:07:39Look, there's
01:07:39Miss Carter!
01:07:40Thank you all
01:07:41for coming today.
01:07:45I'm here to announce
01:07:46that, effective
01:07:47immediately,
01:07:47I am stepping down
01:07:48from my positions
01:07:49at Carter Group.
01:07:52All of my assets
01:07:53and shares
01:07:53will be transferred
01:07:54to Percy Carter.
01:07:55He will take over
01:07:56as the CEO
01:07:56of Carter Group.
01:08:03Miss Carter
01:08:04is still so young
01:08:05and she's handing
01:08:05everything to her son?
01:08:06That's real motherly love.
01:08:08Wish I had a mom
01:08:08like that.
01:08:13Wait,
01:08:14isn't that
01:08:14Miss Carter's husband?
01:08:15Why is he holding
01:08:16hands with another woman?
01:08:17Oh my god,
01:08:17I recognize her.
01:08:18She's the woman
01:08:19Miss Carter promoted
01:08:19herself her most
01:08:20trusted apprentice.
01:08:24I have an announcement.
01:08:26Percy Carter
01:08:27is actually
01:08:28my biological son.
01:08:34Thank you,
01:08:35Miss Carter,
01:08:35for raising my son
01:08:36all these years.
01:08:38But now,
01:08:40it's time for you
01:08:41to return my son
01:08:42to me.
01:08:43Right.
01:08:44Now!
01:08:48Shut up!
01:08:49A bunch of idiots!
01:08:50Why should our family
01:08:51concern you?
01:08:52Without Miss Carter's
01:08:53guidance,
01:08:53she wouldn't be here today.
01:08:55How could she
01:08:55betray her benefator
01:08:57like that?
01:08:57Sleeping with Miss Carter's
01:08:58husband and even
01:08:59letting Miss Carter
01:09:00raise her son!
01:09:01Miss Carter just signed
01:09:02the transfer of shares
01:09:03and now she's here
01:09:04claiming her son.
01:09:05This must be a
01:09:06premeditated scheme.
01:09:07So what?
01:09:07I just made a mistake
01:09:09that every man makes.
01:09:10Rose,
01:09:11even though you've
01:09:11always been good to me,
01:09:12I've never loved you,
01:09:13but I've always loved
01:09:14as Sarah.
01:09:15I hope you understand.
01:09:17Marriage isn't a
01:09:18chain for true love.
01:09:20What do you think?
01:09:25Mom,
01:09:26this is the last time
01:09:27I'm calling you that.
01:09:28You've raised me
01:09:29for over 20 years,
01:09:30but I'm not your real son.
01:09:31Blood is everything.
01:09:32Compared to the three of us,
01:09:33you're an outsider.
01:09:34Rose,
01:09:35you're broke.
01:09:36A beggar on the street
01:09:37has more money than you.
01:09:38Sign the divorce papers
01:09:39and get out of my life.
01:09:40Right now.
01:09:41You are not worthy of me.
01:09:42Hey,
01:09:43considering how much
01:09:44you've done for me,
01:09:45I'll make sure to give you
01:09:45$100 a month for your pension.
01:09:47Percy Carter is such a monster!
01:09:49Miss Carter treated him
01:09:49like her own son,
01:09:50even just handed him
01:09:51her entire fortune.
01:09:52Then he turns around
01:09:52and claims someone else
01:09:53as his mom.
01:09:54And $100 a month?
01:09:55How shameless!
01:09:56Exactly!
01:09:56This family is disgusting!
01:09:57They've gone too far!
01:09:58Shut up!
01:09:59A bunch of idiots!
01:10:00Why should our family
01:10:01concern you?
01:10:01Rose,
01:10:02just sign the papers.
01:10:03I will let you leave
01:10:04with some dignity, okay?
01:10:06Alright.
01:10:09It's real.
01:10:10She actually signed it.
01:10:12Rose, I admit,
01:10:13you're brilliant in business.
01:10:14But so what?
01:10:15Your son,
01:10:16your husband,
01:10:16your life,
01:10:17everything now belongs to me.
01:10:18And that mansion
01:10:19worth billions is ours now.
01:10:20As for you,
01:10:21just live on your $100 a month
01:10:22and stay out of sight.
01:10:26With this quality,
01:10:27it's priceless!
01:10:31Don't be in such a hurry.
01:10:33You've prepared
01:10:33such a big surprise for me.
01:10:35Now,
01:10:36I have a big gift
01:10:37to return to you.
01:10:38Bring it up!
01:10:41Rose,
01:10:41what game are you playing now?
01:10:43Rose,
01:10:43I'm warning you.
01:10:45You have nothing left now.
01:10:46Don't even think
01:10:47about turning things around.
01:10:48Don't worry.
01:10:49This is a family heirloom
01:10:50from the Carter family.
01:10:51It was originally meant for you,
01:10:52since you're the heir I've chosen.
01:10:54Blood or not,
01:10:54you are my son.
01:10:57Tyler,
01:10:57you are always my true love.
01:10:59This heirly is for both of you
01:11:00much happiness.
01:11:03Are you pulling a trick?
01:11:06It's an antique!
01:11:08With this quality,
01:11:09it's priceless!
01:11:15This is really
01:11:16the Carter family heirloom.
01:11:19Has Miss Carter gone crazy?
01:11:21She's giving away
01:11:22the family heirloom
01:11:23just like that?
01:11:23Blessing these ungrateful people?
01:11:30I'm changing it back to Reed.
01:11:32There is no Carter group anymore!
01:11:33Her husband and son
01:11:34she loves these years
01:11:35take everything and run off.
01:11:36Now she's got nothing.
01:11:37Who could handle that?
01:11:37That's so humiliating.
01:11:39She's a total doormat.
01:11:40No wonder she ended up
01:11:41with nothing.
01:11:44Rose,
01:11:45I gotta hand it to you.
01:11:46When you helped me before,
01:11:47I thought you were
01:11:48just being naive.
01:11:49But now,
01:11:50now you've got me
01:11:51thinking differently.
01:11:51You're not just naive.
01:11:53You're a pathetic,
01:11:54worthless lowlife!
01:11:56Gotta give it to you.
01:11:57Good thing you're not
01:11:58my real mom
01:11:58or I'd be so embarrassed.
01:12:00From now on,
01:12:00I'm done with the Carter name.
01:12:02I'm changing it back to Reed.
01:12:04There is no Carter group anymore!
01:12:05I'll take Reed group
01:12:06to the next level!
01:12:07Rose,
01:12:08marrying a stupid like you
01:12:09is the most disgusting thing
01:12:10in my life.
01:12:10Don't ever show up
01:12:11in front of us!
01:12:15Ms. Carter,
01:12:16how do you feel now
01:12:16that everyone's
01:12:17turned their back on you?

01:12:18your divorce is all over
01:12:19social media right now.
01:12:20Is this a PR stunt?
01:12:21You've been dominating
01:12:21the business world for years.
01:12:22Would you really just
01:12:23give it all away like this?
01:12:24Or is this some kind of setup?
01:12:25Fight back,
01:12:26Ms. Carter!

01:12:31Thanks,
01:12:32but no need.
01:12:36Don't even think about
01:12:37coming near my husband
01:12:38or my son again.
01:12:39This has to be hype.
01:12:40There's no way she's
01:12:41handling all of this
01:12:41like it's nothing.
