00:00:05There! Off to her!
00:00:30Boss, it's been six months. You finally picked up the phone.
00:00:33Asshole. Next time you interrupt me while I'm picking up fares, I'm throwing you straight into the Pacific for shark
00:00:38food.
00:00:39Picking up fares? Boss, you're the legendary head of the Celestial Order. I can't believe you're a gigolo now.
00:00:45Say one more word and I'll kill you in the Golden Delta.
00:00:48Ooh, yeah, okay, I'll shut up, okay? Seriously, boss, you ditched your throne just to come back here and drive
00:00:53taxis and work construction sites?
00:00:55Nobody does normal life like this.
00:00:57Enough talking. Any updates on my mother?
00:01:00After years of digging overseas, we're pretty sure your mother's death was tied to the Crimson Pact.
00:01:04Crimson Pact. Keep digging.
00:01:22Driver, if you can lose them, I'll pay you whatever you want.
00:01:26Hang on.
00:01:30Don't let her get away! After them!
00:01:34Driver, please, can't you go faster?
00:01:37Miss, there's a speed limit. This is as fast as I can go.
00:01:44I'll transfer you 1-500. Scan my code. Payment received 1-500.
00:01:48Buckle up.

00:02:30.
00:02:30.
00:02:30.
00:02:31now. I'm so hot, it burns. Miss, were you given something to drink?
00:03:18Ms. Sterling, we're here. Sweetheart, come with mommy. Okay.
00:03:30Mommy, is daddy really here? He's not getting away again, right? Don't worry, boss. After
00:03:37all the times he slipped away before we finally figured out how to corner him, there's no way
00:03:41he escapes this time. So what's his fake job now? He's selling pork this time. A butcher?
00:03:47You seriously thought hiding here would keep me from finding you? Please, a man like you
00:03:52stands out anywhere. You're like a neon sign in the middle of the night. So distinct, so
00:03:57outstanding. Those seductive eyes, that scruffy beard the way you handle a knife, and even
00:04:02that stupid cup of dessert drink. Totally unforgettable. Despite your humble background, every trade
00:04:08has its rules. Regardless, you have to pay the monthly rent for this stall. You think
00:04:13this stall is free? I thought our friendship was worth more than that. Guess everything
00:04:18still comes down to money in the end. Even friends have to pay. Understood. Everyone's
00:04:24going vegan lately. Business is slow. Tell you what. This piece of pork belly. Let's call it
00:04:31today's rent. If you don't pay up today, you're done selling pork here. Daddy, Ivy, finally
00:04:48found you. Daddy, you said you were single. Kid, you've got the wrong guy. I'm not your daddy.
00:04:55Ivy didn't get it wrong. Mommy said you are my daddy. Kid, it's not good to tell lies.
00:05:02Ivy's not lying. You are her father. You, you, you're Bianca Sterling, the CEO of Evercrest
00:05:09Group? Wait, Evercrest Group. That company's worth billions. Why would she be here? It's
00:05:14you. You jerk. You slept with me and disappeared without a trace. I searched for you for four
00:05:20years straight and now I finally found you. Daddy, everyone says I don't have a daddy. Don't you want
00:05:26Ivy anymore? She's really my kid? Here, the DNA test. She really is yours.
00:05:41Then why didn't you come find me earlier? Find you? You were impossible to track down.
00:05:46You spent years hopping between driving cabs and working random construction jobs,
00:05:50and now you're a butcher? How was I supposed to track you down?
00:05:54So all these years, she was the one investigating me. I thought it was those bastards abroad. I really
00:06:00didn't expect that one night would lead to this. How many more nights did you want?
00:06:06This woman is fierce. If you're any kind of man, you'll come and marry me. What? What's that
00:06:12supposed to mean? You sound like marrying me is some kind of punishment. Daddy, Ivy doesn't want
00:06:17to grow up without a daddy. That's not what I meant. I'm just not mentally prepared yet.
00:06:24Then come get the license with me.
00:06:43Ivy has a daddy now. Ivy has a daddy now.
00:06:46Daddy finally has a daughter too.
00:06:49Daddy, you're so handsome. Ivy loves daddy the most.
00:06:53Now that Ivy's got her dad around, I can finally focus on fixing the company mess.
00:07:06I've got an emergency to deal with right now. I'll call you later. But listen carefully,
00:07:10if you disappear on me again. I swear you won't be a man anymore. Got it.
00:07:18Daddy, can you save your number for me? So whenever I miss you, I can call you anytime.
00:07:23Of course I can.
00:07:28Bye-bye daddy!
00:07:38Bye-bye daddy!
00:07:41Greetings, boss!
00:07:42Boss, your location has been compromised.
00:07:45I need you to investigate someone. Her name is Bianca Sterling.
00:07:48Bianca Sterling? Boss, what's your relationship with her?
00:07:51I want you to find out if her daughter is biologically related to me.
00:07:54What? Boss, you have a daughter? But that can't be right. The Drake family has had only one son for
00:08:00nine generations. Conceiving isn't that easy.
00:08:03Yeah, boss. Are you sure you aren't being scammed?
00:08:06That's exactly why I'm having you investigate. Say one more word and see what happens.
00:08:10Fine, fine. I'll shut up.
00:08:22You unwanted little bastard! I'll meet you to death!
00:08:25Kill him! Kill him! Kill him! Kill him!
00:08:29I'm not a bastard! I have a mommy and a daddy!
00:08:32If you really are my daughter, I will give you all the love in the world.
00:08:37Boss, your parents look furious. I'm afraid.
00:08:47What are you all doing here?
00:08:50What do you want?
00:08:51Bianca Sterling, ever since you slept with that wild man and gave birth to this jinx,
00:08:55our family has faced nothing but bad luck. At this rate, the Sterling family is going to go bankrupt.
00:08:59Let go of my mommy!
00:09:01Dad, the company's problems have nothing to do with Ivy. She's just a little girl.
00:09:06Oh please, you're still defending yourself. Ever since you had that bastard and ruined the Cole
00:09:11family alliance, the Coles' suppression of our family has never stopped. If it weren't for that
00:09:17brat, would our family be this screwed right now? Chloe Sterling, watch your filthy mouth! My
00:09:24is not a bastard! Mom, Dad, do you see that? I barely said anything and she already snapped at me.
00:09:30Now the Sterling, watch how you talk to your sister! You got knocked up before marriage,
00:09:35have that kid, and destroy this family's future! That child brought nothing but bad luck from this house!
00:09:42Master, this is the child my daughter bore, the Jinx. Whether the Sterling family can turn things
00:09:47around and prosper again, all depends on you. Indeed. This girl is truly the reincarnation of a
00:09:57Jinx. With her around, you'll never see success in this lifetime.
00:10:03This blessed water was obtained from the temple. Once Ms. Sterling drinks it, tie this spirit mirror
00:10:09to the Jinx. Confine her for 49 days and the curse will be lifted. Dad, she's your own granddaughter!
00:10:15You can't do this to her! This bastard doesn't even know who her father is!
00:10:19She doesn't deserve to be my granddaughter! Ivy isn't a bastard! Ivy has a daddy!
00:10:29Don't cry, Ivy. Ivy is not a bastard. You're mommy's most beloved daughter.
00:10:34A daddy? If you had a father all these years, why hasn't he come looking for you?
00:10:38You? Bianca Sterling, you birthed this bastard! Do you know what people are saying about you?
00:10:43They say you're a loose woman, sleeping around with men, having a bastard child! You don't even know who
00:10:49the father of this brat is! Bianca, it's one thing to be shameless, but why drag the whole family down?
00:10:56Chloe Sterling, I'm warning you! You can insult me all you want, but stay away from my daughter!
00:11:02Mom, Dad, seriously, look at her attitude!
00:11:11Hurry up and apologize to your sister before I lose my temper!
00:11:16She's not my sister. She's just some homewrecker's daughter.
00:11:21Honey, did you hear that? Your daughter doesn't even treat us like family! At this rate,
00:11:25this family's gonna tear itself apart sooner or later!
00:11:29Bianca Sterling, I'll let the disrespect slide, but you're drinking this blessed water,
00:11:33whether you like it or not! I'm not touching it! That guy's a fraud!
00:11:42You little bitch! How dare you insult the master! I should beat you senseless for this!
00:11:47Grandpa, please don't hit mommy! Please don't hit my mommy!
00:11:54I'm sorry! I'll be good!
00:11:58Master Sterling, Bianca is possessed by an evil spirit. We must resort to forceful measures. If we
00:12:05delay any longer, the Sterling family will be human. You're right, Master! I can't be soft-hearted anymore!
00:12:12May the heavens have mercy! Dad, let me do it!
00:12:20What are you doing? Get away! What do you think? I'm exercising you!
00:12:29Mommy, let go of my mommy! Get lost, you jinx!
00:12:43You dare push me? You're asking for it!
00:12:49Ivy, Ivy!
00:12:52Tie the spirit mirror to this bastard! Lock her up for 49 days!
00:13:02What are you doing? My daughter's having an asthma attack! She'll die if you don't let her go!
00:13:08She's better off dead!
00:13:20Mommy!
00:13:27Mommy!
00:13:35Boss, the paternity test has confirmed Ivy Sterling is your biological daughter. Guess that makes you a
00:13:41father now. She's really mine? A hundred percent! But her and her mom have had it rough these past few
00:13:46years. Rough how? According to my investigation, Bianca Sterling is the legitimate daughter of
00:13:51the Sterlings in Northport. She was engaged to the Cole family. But four years ago, she had a baby
00:13:55before the wedding. The Coles took it personally and started crushing the Cole family. They're basically
00:13:59falling apart now. And little Ivy's been blamed for everything since the day she was born. She's
00:14:04endured endless insults and contempt. Life for them in the Sterling family has been a constant struggle.
00:14:10I see. Raising our daughter alone all this time, that couldn't have been easy for you. But now I'm here.
00:14:17Nobody's laying a finger on our kid ever again.
00:14:28Daddy, save me. Mommy, please save me. Ivy, what's happening? Ivy?
00:14:36I don't care what it takes track that call right now. Dad, please let Ivy out. She's really in danger.
00:14:44Bianca Sterling, you were acting so high and mighty earlier. Now look at you, on your knees begging.
00:14:50What do you think begging will help you now? If you had just listened to me back then and aborted
00:14:54that little bastard, none of this would have ever happened. Dad, I was wrong. I apologize. Please
00:14:59just give Ivy back to me. Let me ask you first. In the Sterling family, for defying your elders,
00:15:05what is your punishment? Ten strokes of the cane. Good. At least you know your place. Straighten your back.
00:15:15Please father, carry out the punishment.
00:15:31Dad, stop. Give me my daughter back. Even now, you still can't let go of that little bastard, huh?
00:15:39Dad, she obviously doesn't think she did anything wrong. Chloe is right. As long as she keeps protecting
00:15:45that brat, she'll never do what the master asked and help cleanse the family.
00:15:53You, you've beaten me enough. Humiliated me enough. What the hell else do you want from me?
00:15:58Ivy? I'm telling you. If anything happens to my daughter, I swear I'll take every last one of you
00:16:03down with me. You're threatening me now? Fine. You want me to let this bastard go? Just throw the brat
00:16:10away,
00:16:10and I'll set her free. In your dreams!
00:16:24Ivy, can you hear mommy? Mommy is here to save you! Can you hear me? Mommy is here to save
00:16:30you!
00:16:37Mommy, daddy, help me.
00:16:43Give me the key! I said give me the key!
00:16:48Dad, Bianca's gone crazy! Help me, hurry!
00:16:58Stop!
00:17:06Vincent!
00:17:08Who are you? Honey, where's Ivy?
00:17:11Ivy's having an asthma attack! They've locked her up!
00:17:18Wait, what did you call her? So you're the guy Bianca's been sneaking around with?
00:17:22Dad, she's bold enough to bring her side piece straight home now. She seriously doesn't respect
00:17:28you anymore. Bianca, tell me, who is he? He's Ivy's father. You ungrateful brat,
00:17:35you even brought this thug home! I'll beat you to death today! I'll act as if I never had a
00:17:40daughter!
00:17:40Let her go! Where is Ivy locked up? Chloe has the key!
00:17:56Hand over the key. I'll never give it to you!
00:18:03No!
00:18:07Mommy, daddy, help me. Ivy, hang in there, okay? We're coming to get you out right now.
00:18:13Too bad the key's gone. The little jinx is done for.
00:18:22Oh, please, don't tell me you think you can break the door down yourself.
00:18:30How is this possible? What?
00:18:34Ivy, Ivy.
00:18:36Daddy, mommy. Give the child to me.
00:18:51What do you think you're doing? Do you have any idea who we are?
00:18:55If you touch us, I'll make you.
00:19:01You hit my daughter! I'm going to kill you!
00:19:06That slut brought a man into our house to make a scene! You've got to stand up for us!
00:19:12Bianca Sterling, what the hell are you trying to pull?
00:19:14I told you, Ivy isn't a bastard. She's not a jinx. She has parents. She is my daughter.
00:19:20Oh, wow! Look who finally grew a backbone, Bianca Sterling! Listen carefully! Cross me again and you'll regret it!
00:19:27Then hear this from me too. If you ever touch my wife or kid again, I'll kill you, you old
00:19:31bastard!
00:19:34We're leaving!
00:19:39Sorry I didn't get here sooner. You two alright?
00:19:42We're fine. But how did you know to come here?
00:19:46I called daddy and asked him to come.
00:19:48I saved Ivy's number before. When I heard you were in danger, I rushed here immediately.
00:19:53Yay, daddy! Daddy, you were so cool just now! Right, mommy?
00:19:59He's not as bad as I thought he'd be. And Ivy seems to really like him.
00:20:03Daddy, give me a hug!
00:20:05How are you so strong?
00:20:08Learned at working construction. You've really had a rough time these past few years.
00:20:13Oh, now you care? If you hadn't vanished after sleeping with me back then, would my life be this hard?
00:20:18This woman. Why is she snapping all of a sudden? Bianca, listen to me.
00:20:22We're married now. I will definitely protect you and Ivy. I swear today won't happen again.
00:20:27I'm not asking much from you. Just be a good father to our daughter. Stay out of my business. You
00:20:32can't help anyway.
00:20:34And how are you so sure about that?
00:20:36You sell pork for a living. What can you do for me?
00:20:39So what if I sell pork? Is that a reason to look down on me?
00:20:43Exactly, mommy. How could you say that about daddy? In my eyes, he's the coolest dad ever. He'll definitely protect
00:20:49us.
00:20:50Ivy, why are you taking his side? I'm the one who raised you. Instead of helping me, you're siding with
00:20:55this jerk.
00:20:56I love daddy the most.
00:21:02You're hurt. Let's just go home.
00:21:08I'm okay. I can handle it upstairs myself. Just stay down here with Ivy.
00:21:14Daddy, now that you're here, nobody's gonna bully mommy and me anymore, right?
00:21:19Not while I'm around. Nobody's touching my girls ever again.
00:21:23Daddy, you're the best. So you're super strong, huh?
00:21:27Obviously, your daddy's the toughest man in the whole world.
00:21:30Really? Stronger than Superman?
00:21:32Way stronger than Superman.
00:21:42Let me help you.
00:21:44What are you doing? Who said you could come in here?
00:21:47Don't get the wrong idea. I'm just here to help.
00:21:49I don't need it. Get out! I'm warning you. If you dare peek, I'll gouge your eyes out.
00:21:54Is there a part of you I haven't seen already?
00:21:58You're shameless.
00:22:00All right, enough joking around. There's no way you can treat your back alone.
00:22:04Lie down. I'll do it.
00:22:05I said I'm fine.
00:22:07Lie down.
00:22:16If your hands start wandering, you're dead.
00:22:18Trust me. I'm a gentleman. I's where they belong.
00:22:20How did I never realize she had a body like this?
00:22:23Why are you frozen? Put the medicine on!
00:22:33You've had it rough all these years.
00:22:35Quit talking nonsense and hurry up with the medicine.
00:22:41Easy now.
00:22:42Okay, I'll be gentle.
00:22:47The medicine is all applied.
00:22:57Are you still staring?
00:23:07You jerk! Unbutton this now!
00:23:09You're the one on top of me. How can I move?
00:23:13You...
00:23:15What is this? Why is it so stiff?
00:23:17Lady, you're touching the wrong spot.
00:23:19You creep!
00:23:21Daddy, Mommy, what's going on?
00:23:28Ivy, Mommy was just...
00:23:32Oh, shame on you!
00:23:38Well, if there's nothing else...
00:23:40I'll head out.
00:23:43Not so fast. We need to talk.
00:23:46About what?
00:23:47I married you strictly for Ivy. She's grown up without a father's love.
00:23:51Now that you're in the picture, I expect you to fulfill your duties as a father.
00:23:55Ivy is my daughter. You don't need to say that. I know what I have to do.
00:24:01Fine. As long as you know. You can go now.
00:24:09Why are you still here?
00:24:17Actually, I need to change too. Want to join me?
00:24:20Get out!
00:24:30Daddy, you said you're stronger than Superman.
00:24:33Do you know martial arts?
00:24:36Of course I do.
00:24:39Teach me, Daddy! Teach me, Daddy!
00:24:41Haha! All right! Then I'll teach my sweet girl, the Phantom Blade.
00:24:48Yay! Yes!
00:25:07Wow, Daddy! You're so cool! Daddy, you're amazing!
00:25:15Who told you to play with daggers in front of our daughter?
00:25:19Mommy, don't be mean to Daddy. I asked him to teach me martial arts.
00:25:25As if he actually knows martial arts. I'm warning you. If you ever talk nonsense in front of her again,
00:25:30I won't let you off easy.
00:25:32Ivy, come on! Mommy's taking you to bed.
00:25:41Good night, Daddy!
00:25:53Shade! If you call me this late again and wake up my precious daughter, I will skin you alive.
00:25:59Boss, you've changed. Didn't you used to say that you hated kids? Now it's darling daughter this and darling daughter
00:26:06that.
00:26:07Bullshit! When did I ever say I hated kids? I never said that. Enough nonsense. Get to the point. Why
00:26:12are you calling me?
00:26:13Boss, I just got some news. Your billionaire father and Elena are coming to Rivermore. They'll be here tomorrow. And
00:26:20it seems they found out that you have a child.
00:26:24Who told him?
00:26:26Boss, what are you saying? The signal is bad here. I'm hanging up now.
00:26:38Mr. Drake, would you join us for dinner? Mr. Drake, what are your plans for the future?
00:26:43Dad, is your source reliable? Does Vincent really have a daughter? Am I really an aunt now?
00:26:49The news is absolutely certain.
00:26:52But Dad, you and Vincent have been at odds for years. We're coming to Rivermore to reunite.
00:26:58Will he even agree to see us?
00:27:01That brat has been fighting me for years. He won't come to see me on his own. Spread the word.
00:27:06I, Victor Drake, will be in Rivermore hosting a charity gala for my granddaughter.
00:27:10Invite all the elites of Rivermore. I don't believe for a second that that brat could bear to keep my
00:27:16granddaughter from me.
00:27:18That's a brilliant move, Dad.
00:27:23I never thought the day would come that that useless brat,
00:27:27Vincent, would actually give me such a cute little granddaughter.
00:27:38Here you go, sweetie. Try the breakfast Daddy made for you.
00:27:49Daddy's noodles are so yummy.
00:27:53Compared to the noodles I make, these are better.
00:27:56Daddy's are a little better.
00:28:07How does it taste?
00:28:11It's just okay, I guess.
00:28:14Breaking news. The nation's wealthiest man, Victor Drake.
00:28:18Mr. Drake has arrived in Rivermore.
00:28:20Today he will host a charity gala for his granddaughter.
00:28:23Also prominent figures from Rivermore have been invited.
00:28:36Daddy, that grandpa looks just like you. Could he be my grandpa?
00:28:43Ivy, you're mistaken. That man is Victor Drake. He is an incredibly, incredibly wealthy man.
00:28:51Your daddy is just an ordinary guy. He has absolutely nothing to do with someone like that.
00:28:58If you were really that powerful, with a grandfather like that, no one would dare bully us.
00:29:04But he looks just like Daddy.
00:29:08Ivy, how does that old man look like me? I'm clearly way more handsome.
00:29:13You're just a butcher. Don't compare yourself to the richest man.
00:29:23In a bit, I'm going to Mr. Drake's banquet.
00:29:26You stay home and watch Ivy. Call me if anything happens.
00:29:33What is that old man up to?
00:29:38Boss, bad news. Your father just called and gave us a warning.
00:29:41What did he say?
00:29:42He said if he doesn't see his granddaughter at the charity gala,
00:29:46he will completely crush all our domestic forces in Astera.
00:29:49He also said his status is Astera's richest man, while not as high as the Celestial Order's boss.
00:29:55If it comes to a fight, he'll make your life a living hell.
00:30:15My sweet girl, how about Daddy takes you to see Grandpa?
00:30:19Yay! Yes, please!
00:30:27Daddy, is Grandpa really in here?
00:30:30That old man should be in here.
00:30:36Daddy!
00:30:53What the hell are you doing? Are you blind? Watch where you're driving!
00:30:57You pathetic loser! Don't you have eyes? You ruined my brand new Land Rover!
00:31:01What's with the attitude? Do you realize you almost hit someone?
00:31:04So what, you pathetic loser? Look at yourself, know your place!
00:31:09I could kill you both and still afford the payout!
00:31:12Can you please be reasonable?
00:31:13Reasonable? To hell with that? Do you know how much my Land Rover is worth?
00:31:17You've dirtied my car! Look it clean right now!
00:31:21Don't touch my Daddy!
00:31:23Get the hell away from me!
00:31:32You're asking for it!
00:31:33What? You think you can actually hit me?
00:31:40Miss Carter, what happened?
00:31:42What do you mean? What happened? Are you blind?
00:31:44This loser scratched my car, and now he's trying to get violence!
00:31:48If you don't handle this to my satisfaction, you'll all be out of a job!
00:31:52Hey, you dare provoke Miss Carter? You've got a death wish!
00:31:58Daddy, I'm scared!
00:32:09Stop right there!
00:32:12It's Miss Sterling from Evercrest Group!
00:32:22Miss Sterling, what brings you here? I'm Carter, your business partner!
00:32:25This scumbag loser barged in here! I was just teaching him a lesson!
00:32:30Ivy, what's wrong?
00:32:32Mommy, this mean woman was bullying me and Daddy!
00:32:36Mommy?
00:32:38What? This woman hit Ivy!
00:32:48Miss Sterling, let me explain! I didn't know they were with you!
00:32:53I! Miss Sterling, I!
00:32:56I'll say it one more time!
00:32:58Apologize to them!
00:33:00I'm sorry, it's all my fault!
00:33:03Get out!
00:33:11What are you doing here? Didn't I tell you to stay home and look after Ivy?
00:33:15Daddy brought me here to find Grandpa!
00:33:17Grandpa? Ivy's grandfather is here?
00:33:20Honey, my old man told me to bring Ivy to see him, so I just...
00:33:24What did you say? You're saying Ivy's grandfather is at the Crown Hotel?
00:33:28Do you have any idea that the Crown Hotel is booked out today?
00:33:32I know!
00:33:34Then do you know, the person who booked it is Victor Drake, the richest man in Estera.
00:33:39Are you trying to say that Ivy's grandfather is Victor Drake?
00:33:44Actually...
00:33:45Enough! You can lie to Ivy all you want, but don't try to fool me!
00:33:49If your father were the richest man, would you still be selling pork at the market?
00:33:54Vincent! I'm about to attend Mr. Drake's banquet for my company!
00:33:58This event is absolutely critical!
00:34:01I don't have time for your nonsense!
00:34:04Take Ivy and go home right now!
00:34:06We'll talk about the rest when I get back!
00:34:13She's so grumpy!
00:34:14The richest man in the country? Big deal! I'm the richest man in the world!
00:34:18Vanessa, who exactly is this Victor Drake?
00:34:20Why did so many big shots from Rivermore show up tonight?
00:34:24Even the Cole family, the top family in Rivermore, is willing to host this gala just for Victor Drake!
00:34:34Tellia, Victor Drake is the richest man in all of Estera, and I heard Victor Drake plans to invest $1
00:34:41.4 billion in Rivermore.
00:34:43All these entrepreneurs are here, chasing that $1.4 billion!
00:34:47No wonder! It attracted so many big shots!
00:34:50To the gala!
00:34:51Vanessa, when you see the big man later, put in a good word for the Brooks family!
00:34:55Don't you worry! Since the Coles are the hosts, I'll definitely be able to speak with Mr. Drake!
00:35:01If Mr. Drake is in a good mood, he might invest in the Brooks family! I can't thank you enough!
00:35:12Vanessa, isn't that your brother's fiancé? Bianca Sterling? What is Bianca Sterling doing here?
00:35:20Look who it is! Bianca Sterling! Ever since she had a kid out of wedlock and offended the Cole family,
00:35:26her company has been going under!
00:35:28Don't tell me Bianca is also here for Mr. Drake's $1.4 billion investment!
00:35:33That slut hooked up with some loser and ruined the Cole family's reputation! Let's go pay her a visit!
00:35:41Well, if it isn't Ms. Sterling, what brings you here, Ms. Cole? Ms. Brooks? If you're allowed here, then so
00:35:47am I!
00:35:48Ha ha! Bianca Sterling! Your company is about to go bankrupt! Why are you even bothering to show up?
00:35:53Look at your current status! You don't belong here! Vanessa, isn't it obvious? Ms. Sterling is desperate
00:35:59enough to crawl here for an investment! And what about you? Aren't you here for Mr. Drake's money too?
00:36:06Bianca Sterling! That $1.4 billion the Cole family will have it! A slut like you can't compete with us!
00:36:19Mommy! Mommy!
00:36:25Ivy, how did you get in here? Daddy brought me here!
00:36:28Didn't I tell you? I told you to take Ivy home! Why did you bring her here? Get Ivy out
00:36:33of here now!
00:36:33This isn't a place for you to mess around!
00:36:35Oh, so this is the bastard child you had with some random man? I heard that ever since she was
00:36:41born,
00:36:41the Sterling family hasn't had a single good day! This is Mr. Drake's investment gala! How dare you bring
00:36:47Ms. Jinx here! Say one more word about my daughter, I dare you! This is your daughter?
00:36:58Ms. Sterling! Don't tell me the man you've been seeing! That random guy! Is this Butcher?
00:37:03Everyone, come look! Rivermore's famous beautiful entrepreneur had a bastard with a butcher!
00:37:09Oh my god, is that Bianca Sterling? He really is a butcher! Look at what he's wearing!
00:37:13Isn't this Bianca Sterling from Evercrest Group? I heard she had a child out of wedlock four years ago!
00:37:18She gave birth to a daughter who's a total jinx! The girl even cursed Evercrest Group to the brink of
00:37:23bankruptcy!
00:37:26Bianca, you really have no standards, do you? How could you bring yourself to touch a man like this?
00:37:31Vanessa, how could you say that about Ms. Sterling? Ms. Sterling is the most beautiful woman in Rivermore after all!
00:37:38I'm sure her skills in bed are quite impressive! You-
00:37:43You mean lady! Don't you dare talk about my mommy!
00:37:47I'd be! You little jinx! How dare you push me!
00:37:54How dare you touch my precious daughter!
00:38:06Dad! The charity gala is all set! Everyone is waiting for you!
00:38:14Elena, is that brat of a brother of yours here?
00:38:19I received word that Vincent should be here!
00:38:22And what about my precious granddaughter? She should be here too! Quick, take me to her!
00:38:29Dad, don't be in such a rush! Because of what happened back then, Vincent still has issues with you!
00:38:35You know that! If you go down there just like this, there's a good chance you two will end up
00:38:40in a fight!
00:38:41With so many people around, it's better not to make a scene!
00:38:44So what are you suggesting?
00:38:45I'll go down and greet him first! Then bring his daughter up! You can see her in private first!
00:38:51Fine! I'm only here for my granddaughter anyway! I don't care if I see that brat or not!
00:38:55Dad, just get ready to hold your granddaughter!
00:39:04Vincent, are you coming or not?
00:39:11Ivy, don't cry! These bad guys can't hurt us! Bianca, if you believe in me, I will handle everything for
00:39:17you!
00:39:19Take him away!
00:39:26I'll say it one more time! You have no right to kick me out!
00:39:30Vincent, you-
00:39:31If I want to leave, no one can stop me! And if I don't want to go, no one on
00:39:35earth can make me!
00:39:36Before my daughter sees her grandfather, we're not going anywhere!
00:39:40Vincent, stop this nonsense! I'm begging you! Just take Ivy and leave!
00:39:43Vanessa, look at his attitude! To someone who didn't know better, they'd think Mr. Drake was this little Jinx's grandfather!
00:39:51Bianca Sterling, this loser you found is really something! He actually dares to claim a connection to Mr. Drake?
00:39:58You really have a death wish, don't you?
00:40:00Vincent, can you please stop talking nonsense? If you keep this up, no one will be able to save you!
00:40:07Manager Lewis, stop wasting time! Do it now!
00:40:11We can do this the easy way! Or the hard way! I'm going to kill you right now!
00:40:16Everyone, stop right now!
00:40:21Ms. Drake, what are you doing here?
00:40:24Who is that woman? Why is Manager Lewis being so respectful?
00:40:29Keep your voice down. That's Elena Drake. She's the daughter of Victor Drake, and the heiress to Drake Holdings.
00:40:35What's happening here?
00:40:36Someone is causing trouble at the banquet. I was just about to teach him a lesson.
00:40:43Trouble? Ms. Drake, Bianca Sterling brought a lowlife here and to cause a scene! He even laid a hand on
00:40:50me! Please, you must give me justice!
00:40:55Ms. Drake, my husband didn't mean any harm. If he offended you, I'm willing to apologize.
00:41:01Pretty lady, my daddy didn't do anything wrong! That mean woman was bullying mommy! My daddy did it to protect
00:41:08mommy!
00:41:08Is this Vincent's daughter? She's so precious! Ms. Drake, don't let this little bastard fool you! This little brat is
00:41:15nothing but a jinx! She's bad luck for anyone around her!
00:41:18Everyone in Rivermore knows that Bianca Sterling had a bastard child with some random man! Ms. Drake, Bianca bringing such
00:41:26a jinx to this gala shows she's up to no good! I suggest you kick their whole family out!
00:41:32Who are you calling a jinx? That little bastard right there!
00:41:38Ms. Drake, why did you hit me? Such a lovely little girl! And you dare call her a jinx? Sweetie,
00:41:45you are just too cute! You're just like a little doll! Can I give you a hug?
00:41:53She's my daughter! If you want one, go have your own!
00:41:59Dad is upstairs! He wants to see Ivy!
00:42:03You're Ivy, right? Can Big Sister give you a hug?
00:42:06Big Sister, how old are you even? And look how little Ivy is! Ivy should call you Aunt Elena!
00:42:11Vincent, how can you talk to Ms. Drake like that?
00:42:14Right! You should call me Aunt Elena! Little Ivy, you're just too cute! Come, let Aunt Elena hug you! I'll
00:42:20take you to play!
00:42:21Then can you stop those sad people from bullying my daddy and mommy?
00:42:27Your daddy is the boss of the celestial order! Anyone who bullied him is already six feet under! Who would
00:42:32dare mess with him? Okay, Aunt Elena promises you! Ms. Cole, since the Cole family and is hosting this gala
00:42:40tonight, I'll overlook what just happened! But if you ever provoke Ms. Sterling again, or her husband,
00:42:45don't blame me for showing the Cole family no mercy! I understand! Ms. Drake, they won't dare bully you anymore!
00:42:53Can Aunt Elena have a hug now?
00:42:58Little Ivy, I'll take you to see Grandpa, okay? Okay!
00:43:04Don't worry, Bianca! Ivy went to see her grandpa! She'll be fine!
00:43:07Bianca Sterling, you bitch! I'm not done with you for what you did!
00:43:12If you keep spewing filth, I'll cut out your tongue!
00:43:19You reckless fool! You think you can threaten a Cole?
00:43:25Aunt Elena, where are you taking me?
00:43:28I'm taking you to see your grandpa.
00:43:30Really, Aunt Elena? Do you know my grandpa?
00:43:32Of course, I'm your aunt after all.
00:43:37Where is my precious granddaughter? Elena, what's taking that girl so long?
00:43:43She looks so much like him!
00:43:46Dad, like what?
00:43:47She looks just like that Brat Vincent! She's definitely a Drake!
00:43:50Mister, are you my daddy's daddy?
00:43:53My darling granddaughter, I am your grandfather!
00:43:56Are you really my grandpa?
00:43:58I really am your grandpa, my sweet granddaughter. Can Grandpa give you a hug?
00:44:03Uh-huh!
00:44:03My good girl, my sweet little girl. Oh, by the way, sweetie. Grandpa has a gift for you.
00:44:13This is the Drake family heirloom. Grandpa is giving it to you now. Do you like it?
00:44:18I love everything grandpa gives me.
00:44:22What a good girl you are.
00:44:24Tristan, this bitch humiliated me multiple times! You have to stand up for me!
00:44:30Who did it?
00:44:31It was him!
00:44:35That's Tristan Cole, the heir to the Cole family. I heard the Coles and Sterlings were engaged,
00:44:41but since Bianca had a child out of wedlock, the Coles were livid. They've been crushing the Sterlings for
00:44:46years. With all the new grudges combined, Bianca is in major trouble this time.
00:44:51Tristan, this guy, Drake, is the one who had that bastard with Bianca Sterling. He's her secret lover.
00:44:56What? Bianca Sterling? That bastard child? You had it with him?
00:45:01Mr. Tristan, I suggest you watch your mouth. My husband did hit your sister, but that's because
00:45:07she provoked him first.
00:45:09Husband? You married him?
00:45:12That's right. Vincent Drake is my husband.
00:45:15How dare you? You're betrothed to me. Who gave you permission to marry another man?
00:45:21Mr. Tristan, show some respect.
00:45:23Respect? Bianca Sterling, you had a bastard out of wedlock. I could have forgiven you. I even went easy on
00:45:29the Sterling family. I didn't destroy them completely. I was hoping you'd change your mind,
00:45:33but you never should have married some lowlife. You're crossing the line.
00:45:38Tristan Cole, show some respect to my husband.
00:45:40A loser like him doesn't deserve my respect. Bianca Sterling, tell me, how am I, Tristan Cole,
00:45:45not good enough for you? You'd rather marry a loser than be with me?
00:45:52Listen, I don't care who you are or what your past was with my wife, but let me warn you,
00:45:58if you ever dare harass my wife again, I'll destroy you.
00:46:02Vincent, stop talking. The Cole family in Rivermore.
00:46:05I don't care who they are in Rivermore. Anyone who bullies my wife will curl up if
00:46:11they're a dragon and kneel if they're a tiger. What's the deal with Bianca's husband? Where does
00:46:16he get the nerve? Does he think the Coles won't retaliate? This kid is dead meat. Mr. Tristan is
00:46:21all-powerful in Rivermore. Before Tristan, Cole was only pressuring the Sterlings. He didn't go for
00:46:26the kill. He just hoped Bianca Sterling would change her mind. But after this scene, the Coles will
00:46:31show no mercy. Tristan is such a worthless woman. Really worth all this effort? She clearly doesn't
00:46:37have any respect for you. Who the hell do you think you are? How dare you threaten me? You loser!
00:46:48If this were a few years ago, you'd be a corpse by now. Tristan, are you okay? I'm going to
00:46:54kill you!
00:46:54I, Tristan Cole, swear I'll kill you! Or I'm not fit to be a man! Guards! Someone get over here!
00:47:03Your orders, Mr. Tristan? Kill him! Kill him! No!
00:47:07No! Tristan Cole, what will it take for you to let us go? Bianca Sterling, weren't you just acting so
00:47:12tough? Why are you begging my brother now? Tristan Cole, if you want something, come at me. Don't make
00:47:18things hard for Vincent. What do I want? I want you to willingly become my woman. And I want this
00:47:26piece
00:47:26of trash to kneel before me. Like a slave, he must lick my boots. Then I'll let him go.
00:47:32You're going too far! Then he's a dead man! Do it!
00:47:38Stop bullying my daddy and mommy! Ivy, why are you here? Mommy, daddy, I just saw grandpa. He was so
00:47:45nice to me. He even gave me a gift. This little brat is the bastard child of Bianca and Vincent.
00:47:51Bianca Sterling, your whole family is finally all together. Good. This is just perfect. Might as well
00:47:58take care of them all at once. Grab this little bastard, too. I'll deal with both of them together.
00:48:04Stop bullying me! If my grandpa and aunt find out, they won't let you get away with this. Kid,
00:48:09I don't care if your grandpa shows up. Even if God himself came down, I still wouldn't let you off.
00:48:16Grandpa, there are bad people out here. They're bullying me, mommy and daddy. Please come and save us.
00:48:22What? Hang on, my sweet granddaughter. Grandpa is coming for you right now.
00:48:27They've got some nerve to bully Victor Drake's granddaughter. I'll make them pay!
00:48:33It's over. This guy is dead meat. He offended Mr. Tristan. He's a dead man walking.
00:48:39Tristan Cole, what are you doing? This is Mr. Drake's place. You dare to make a move? Aren't you
00:48:44afraid of crossing Mr. Drake? Bianca Sterling, but stop using Mr. Drake to threaten me. This crown hotel
00:48:50is Cole family property. I can kill whoever I want. Bianca, don't waste your breath on him. I'd like
00:48:57to see what makes him think he can kill me. Can you please stop with the big talk? Even if
00:49:04you don't
00:49:04care about yourself, you have to think about Ivy. Tristan Cole, what exactly would you want?
00:49:11What will it take to let my husband go? My sweet granddaughter, what else do you want?
00:49:16Whatever you desire, even the stars in the sky, I'll pluck them down for you. Grandpa,
00:49:22you're so good to me. Besides mommy and daddy, you're the person who treats me best.
00:49:26Does no one else treat you well? My other grandparents, they always say I'm
00:49:31a jinx. That since the day I was born, I've only brought disaster to others. Those bastards,
00:49:37how dare they call Victor Drake's granddaughter a jinx. They deserve to die. Don't you worry,
00:49:42Ivy. If anyone bullies you from now on, just tell me. I'll stand up for you. Thank you,
00:49:46grandpa. Oh, and grandpa, daddy and mommy haven't seen me in a while. They must be worried. I'm going to
00:49:52find them now. Bye, grandpa. I want to know everything about Ivy's past. My precious
00:49:59granddaughter must have suffered so much. You little brat. So you even know how to call for
00:50:06backup? Oh, so your grandpa is coming? I'm so scared. Vincent, what on earth did you tell Ivy?
00:50:13I didn't say anything. This can't go on. You're going to ruin Ivy. Stop making things harder for me.
00:50:20Look at what you're wearing. You look pathetic. Little brat, tell me, what's your grandpa's name?
00:50:27Maybe when he sees me later, he'll have to kneel and beg for mercy. He is my grandpa.
00:50:35Did you tell Ivy to say this too? It really wasn't me. Vincent, I don't want to see you right
00:50:41now.
00:50:42What are you still doing here?
00:50:49Exactly. Don't tell me you're planning to sell pork to Astera's richest man.
00:50:54I'll go change and come right back. Get lost already. You're a cute little thing, aren't you?
00:51:01Do you have any idea who he is? He's the richest man in Astera. He's someone I have to kneel
00:51:07and
00:51:07kowtow to. And you claim he's your grandpa? I'm not lying. He really is my grandpa. This pendant is a
00:51:15gift from my grandpa. My grandpa gave me that. Give it back.
00:51:24Ha ha ha. Then have your grandpa come find me. How dare you?
00:51:36Mr. Mr. Drake.
00:51:38Is this the richest man, Mr. Drake? What a powerful presence.
00:51:44Mr. Drake, my name is Tristan Cole. I'm from the Cole family.
00:51:51My sweet granddaughter, tell grandpa what happened. Granddaughter? Could this jinx really be Mr.
00:51:58Drake's granddaughter? How is that possible? Ivy really is Mr. Drake's granddaughter.
00:52:03Those bad people were bullying. Daddy and mommy. He even broke the gift you gave me.
00:52:10Don't cry, my sweet granddaughter. Whenever you cry, it breaks my heart. Don't you worry.
00:52:15Grandpa will definitely teach these scumbags a lesson.
00:52:19It was you. You bullied my precious granddaughter.
00:52:23I, Mr. Drake, she, she, how could she be your granddaughter? If she isn't my granddaughter.
00:52:29Then are you? Mr. Drake, I was wrong. I was blind not to recognize you.
00:52:37Please forgive me just this once. I'll never do it again. You think you'll have a next time?
00:52:44That old man, he still has a hell of a temper. Bullying my precious granddaughter?
00:52:49Beat him to a pole. No, no, no.
00:52:54My sweet girl, grandpa already taught the bad guy a lesson.
00:52:58Thank you, grandpa.
00:53:01Mommy, he's the grandpa. He's so good to Ivy.
00:53:05Mr. Drake, thank you for helping us.
00:53:08We're family. There's no need for thanks. No random nobody is allowed to bully Victor Drake's family.
00:53:14What's going on? Could Bianca Sterling really be Victor Drake's daughter-in-law?
00:53:18Oh my god, Tristan Cole really messed with the wrong person.
00:53:21Family. Mr. Drake, are you and my husband, Vincent Drake, really father and son?
00:53:28I don't know him.
00:53:30Don't know him?
00:53:32Don't know him?
00:53:36Dad and Vincent are unbelievable. It's been so many years and they're still so childish.
00:53:43Mr. Drake, didn't you say this little brat was your granddaughter? How can you not know her now?
00:53:49How dare you call her a brat? Guards, get these bastards out of here for bullying my precious
00:53:54granddaughter. Throw them all out.
00:53:56Mr. Drake, I was wrong. Please have mercy. I'll apologize to your granddaughter. I'll apologize to her
00:54:01right now. Apologize, you're not worthy. Throw them all out.
00:54:05What on earth is going on? Is that girl really Mr. Drake's granddaughter?
00:54:10Mr. Drake, thank you so much for your help. I'm thanking you on behalf of my daughter.
00:54:15Vincent, Mr. Drake helped us. Come and thank him.
00:54:17Without him, I could have handled this mess. Who needs his help?
00:54:21Vincent, how can you talk to Mr. Drake like that?
00:54:24You unfilial brat!
00:54:26Dad, calm down. Today is a joyful day to reunite with your granddaughter.
00:54:29Don't snoop to Vincent's level. Besides, his identity is special. It can't be exposed. Let's call it a day.
00:54:35Vincent, you know how stubborn dad is.
00:54:40Honey, it's getting late. Ivy needs to go to sleep. Let's head home.
00:54:44Okay. Mr. Drake, my husband is just like that. Please bear with him. Don't take it personally.
00:54:50In that case, take Ivy home now. Elena, see them out.
00:54:53Ms. Sterling, let me see you out. Goodbye, Grandpa.
00:54:58My precious granddaughter. If you miss me, remember to call me.
00:55:05Tristan, that little brat is Mr. Drake's granddaughter. We've offended Mr. Drake. What are we going to do now?
00:55:11That little brat, you couldn't be Mr. Drake's granddaughter. In this world, there are no such coincidences.
00:55:15Mr. Drake and that loser Vincent don't even know each other.
00:55:18How could Ivy Sterling possibly be his granddaughter?
00:55:21Could it be that Mr. Drake just likes kids, so?
00:55:26Bianca Sterling, I used to still have feelings for you. Since you don't know what's good for you, don't blame
00:55:32me for being ruthless.
00:55:37Vincent, is there something you're hiding from me?
00:55:40Honey, I'm not hiding anything from you.
00:55:42What exactly is your connection to Mr. Drake?
00:55:45Didn't I tell you? I don't know him at all.
00:55:47Then why did Mr. Drake help us?
00:55:49I have no idea. Maybe he thought Ivy was cute and she reminded him of his granddaughter.
00:55:53Is that it?
00:55:54Honey, it really is. I really don't know that old man.
00:55:56I guess I was overthinking it. If your father were the richest man, you wouldn't be such a loser.
00:56:01Honey, that's cold. Honey, our daughter is asleep. Let's talk about whatever it is at home.
00:56:06Vincent.
00:56:07Vincent, I'm sorry. I shouldn't have said those hurtful things to you. I apologize.
00:56:13Honey, we're family. No need to apologize.
00:56:24Honey, what's all this?
00:56:25Come in here for a second.
00:56:27Where?
00:56:27The bedroom.
00:56:28The bedroom? Could it be?
00:56:34Honey, should I take a shower first?
00:56:39Honey, isn't this a bit too fast?
00:56:42I'm not mentally prepared yet.
00:56:45And what kind of preparation do you think you need?
00:56:48You're right. I don't need to be prepared. All right then, Bianca. Then hurry up.
00:56:52Fine. You said it.
00:56:58Vincent, I have a few questions for you. If you dare lie to me, I won't let you off easy.
00:57:03Honey, please just ask.
00:57:05First, who exactly are you?
00:57:07I'm just an ordinary butcher.
00:57:10And?
00:57:10A taxi driver. A security guard.
00:57:13Vincent, do you really think I'm stupid? If you're just an ordinary man,
00:57:17how could you punch through our security door with one hand? If you're an ordinary person,
00:57:21how could you stay so calm at the galaxy? Facing Tristan Cole's threats, you didn't even flinch.
00:57:26My intuition tells me you're not an ordinary man.
00:57:29Does she know something?
00:57:31Tell me, are you a fugitive?
00:57:34A fugitive?
00:57:35Honey, you've got me all wrong. How could I possibly be a fugitive?
00:57:40If you're not a fugitive, why have you been hiding all these years?
00:57:43Driving a taxi one day, working construction the next, and then selling meat.
00:57:47Honey, you've really misunderstood me. I can swear to God, I am really not a fugitive.
00:57:52Besides, I'm such a kind person. I wouldn't even step on a bug. How could I be a fugitive?
00:57:57Honey, you've watched too many spy movies. You're really not? It's the absolute truth.
00:58:03Fine. I'll believe you for now. But let me ask you, this is the most important question.
00:58:10Will you treat Ivy well from now on?
00:58:12Ivy is my daughter. Of course I'll treat her well.
00:58:15Swear it. I swear to God.
00:58:17Ivy is my daughter. One hundred percent. No, one thousand percent. I'll love her.
00:58:21I'll protect her from any grievance. Honey, you've asked your questions and I've made my oath.
00:58:26Now, can you finally put the knife?
00:58:28But I feel like you're lying to me.
00:58:32Bianca Sterling, don't push it.
00:58:34What did you say?
00:58:36If a tiger doesn't show its claws, do you think I'm a pushover?
00:58:42Honey, you've gone too far.
00:58:46What are you doing?
00:58:50You're my wife. What do you think I'm doing?
00:58:55You don't try anything.
00:59:01Since it's already come to this, I'll just treat it like a mosquito bite.
00:59:15Get some rest, honey.
00:59:20Honey, no matter who I am, I'm still Ivy's father and your husband. I will protect you both.
00:59:27This guy.
00:59:29Alright, stop being so cheeky. I'm at the office. Go back and look after Ivy.
00:59:43Miss Sterling's father came into the office early today and hold a board meeting.
00:59:48He's probably looking for trouble.
00:59:49Sigh. Poor Miss Sterling.
00:59:51When she took over, it was a complete mess.
00:59:53Now that the project failed, this board meeting is likely a move to oust her.
00:59:57If she's kicked out, she'll have nothing left.
00:59:59In my opinion, that board is just a bunch of good-for-nothings.
01:00:02Without Miss Sterling, Evercrest would have gone bankrupt.
01:00:08Miss Sterling. Your father and all the shareholders are waiting for you.
01:00:12They're out for blood. It looks like they're trying to oust you.
01:00:28This is a rare sight. I hardly ever see any of you at the office. But today, everyone's actually here.
01:00:37Bianca, what's that supposed to mean?
01:00:40Am I wrong? You shareholders are always first in line when it's time to collect dividends.
01:00:45But when it comes to work, you're nowhere to be found.
01:00:48Dad! Look at Bianca's attitude!
01:00:54Bianca! You think you're so tough now, daring to speak to me like that?
01:00:59Enough. Cut the small talk. Just get straight to the point.
01:01:04Bianca, do you have any idea what you did yesterday?
01:01:06And what exactly did I do?
01:01:08Because you offended Tristan Cole at the charity gala, the Cole family is furious.
01:01:13They've issued a total blacklist against Evercrest Group.
01:01:15Because of this, many of our suppliers have terminated their contracts.
01:01:19The company is in a desperate crisis, and you still have the nerve to be snide?
01:01:25I'm fully aware of the situation, but I will find a way to resolve this crisis.
01:01:30Resolve this crisis? With what? How can you resolve it?
01:01:33The Cole family is the leading enterprise in the region.
01:01:36With just one word from him, no one in the province will work with us.
01:01:40At this rate, it won't be long before the company goes bankrupt.
01:01:44So what are you all really trying to say?
01:01:46Tristan Cole has sent word.
01:01:48If you beg the Cole family for mercy and become his woman,
01:01:51he will give Evercrest Group a lifeline.
01:01:56And if I refuse?
01:01:57Then we will remove you as chairwoman and kick you out of the company for good.
01:02:02So is this your unanimous decision?
01:02:05Ms. Sterling, we've run this company for years. We can't just let it go bankrupt.
01:02:09He's right, Ms. Sterling. Under your leadership these past years, things have improved a bit.
01:02:14But the Cole family has deep pockets. We can't win against them.
01:02:18Do you see this now, Bianca Sterling? You brought all of this on yourself.
01:02:21You must take responsibility for this.
01:02:24Take back my shares? You don't have the right.
01:02:26Don't forget, Evercrest Group was built by my mother from the ground up.
01:02:29The shares I hold were given to me by her. You have no authority to kick me out.
01:02:33Are you threatening me, Bianca Sterling?
01:02:35I'm not threatening you. Let me tell you all something.
01:02:38You might be afraid of Tristan Cole, but I certainly am not.
01:02:41Don't forget, you only own 40% of the shares, while we hold a full 60% stake.
01:02:48Do you want to do this the hard way then? All those in favor of removing Bianca Sterling, please raise
01:02:54your hands.
01:03:08I'd like to see who dares to raise a hand.
01:03:14Vincent, what are you doing here?
01:03:15Honey, I'm here now. This old scumbag is trying to bully you. Not on my watch.
01:03:20Bianca Sterling, do you have any idea what kind of event this is? How dare you bring this lowlife in
01:03:25here?
01:03:25Do you have any respect for us at all? Dad, you see this? This Bianca actually brought her lowlife to
01:03:31the office.
01:03:31If we keep letting her get away with this, our company's name will change.
01:03:35Bianca Sterling, get him out of here!
01:03:38Old man, I warned you last time. If you bully my wife again, I'll kill you.
01:03:43Then try and touch me. You think I won't?
01:03:46Vincent, don't be reckless. Honey, don't stop me. Vincent, that's enough.
01:03:52Give me three days. Within three days, I'll find a new supplier for the company.
01:03:57Why should I give you those three days?
01:03:5940% of the shares, is that enough? If I can't find a new supplier within three days,
01:04:04I will not only resign, but I'll also give all my shares to you.
01:04:07But, if I find a new supplier and secure a long-term partnership, I want all the shares that you
01:04:12hold.
01:04:13I'm sure. I'm very sure.
01:04:15I'm giving you three days. In three days, I'll hold a press conference.
01:04:18At that time, I'll invite all the city's elites.
01:04:20If you fail to resolve the crisis, every asset in your name will belong to us. Let's go.
01:04:25Wait. Kid, what else do you want?
01:04:27You old geezer, what if you lose?
01:04:29I won't lose.
01:04:30Don't be so sure. If you lose, you'll hand over your shares to my wife for free.
01:04:34How dare you?
01:04:35Old geezer, didn't you say you couldn't lose? Why are you chickening out now?
01:04:39Fine! You're on!
01:04:41Who let you in?
01:04:42Bianca, I'm just trying to help.
01:04:44Vincent Drake, can you stop being so full of yourself?
01:04:46I've told you many times you can't help me. You're only going to cause me more trouble.
01:04:50Honey, if you just trust me, I can solve all your problems.
01:04:52Enough. I'm in no mood to hear this right now. Just go. I have things to handle.
01:04:57By the way, I have a business dinner tonight. Don't bother picking me up.
01:05:01All right. I'm heading out then.
01:05:08Fiona Hart, my company is in some trouble. I might need your help. Are you free? Let me buy you
01:05:13dinner.
01:05:15Fiona, that Bianca Sterling you mentioned, is she really as beautiful as you say?
01:05:19Mr. Boone, Bianca was my classmate in college. Back then, she was our campus belle.
01:05:24The men chasing her back then could have lined up all the way to Paris.
01:05:28So, will she sleep with me tonight?
01:05:31Mr. Boone, you don't understand. Bianca's company is in serious trouble lately.
01:05:35If no one helps her, she'll go bankrupt. As long as you...
01:05:39Ha ha ha! Fiona, if I can have her tonight, I'll make sure you're well rewarded.
01:05:46Bianca, long time no see.
01:05:48Fiona, it's been a while.
01:05:49By the way, Bianca, let me introduce you.
01:05:50This is the general manager of Titan Group, Mr. Cedric Boone.
01:05:54Mr. Boone, this is the one I told you about.
01:05:57Ms. Sterling is not only stunning, but also a famous businesswoman in our city.
01:06:01Hello, Mr. Boone. I've heard so much about you.
01:06:19Yes, sir. I understand. Sir, I'm heading to Northport immediately.
01:06:24Get the car ready. I need to reach Northport as fast as possible.
01:06:34Turn around now. Get us to Northport immediately.
01:06:37Mr. Pierce, aren't we supposed to sign that $1.4 billion contract? Why go to Northport now?
01:06:42A $1.4 billion contract? Compared to him, it's not worth a damn.
01:06:51Move at maximum speed. We're heading to Northport.
01:07:00Daddy, it's so late. Why isn't Mommy home yet? I'm so sleepy.
01:07:04Mommy is busy with work. She'll be home soon. Go to sleep first, Ivy. I'll give her a call and
01:07:09check on her.
01:07:10Okay.
01:07:20Boss, this is Shade. It's so late. Do you have any orders?
01:07:23Look into something for me. Find out who my wife met with tonight and where they met.
01:07:32I'll give her a call.
01:07:33Understood, Boss. Is there anything else you need me to do?
01:07:36There is one more thing. My wife's company is in some trouble. See if you can help her without revealing
01:07:41my identity.
01:07:42That's not a problem, Boss. In this country, we own over a dozen. Fortune 500 companies.
01:07:47I'll call them right now and have them head to Northport as fast as they can.
01:08:00Bianca, I heard your company is being targeted by the Cole family.
01:08:03But don't worry. These little troubles, Mr. Boone can definitely help you solve them.
01:08:09Right, Mr. Boone?
01:08:10The Cole family is just a local business in Northport. That's all. They might act big here, but to the
01:08:15Titan Group, they're absolutely nothing.
01:08:17Mr. Boone, I'm well aware of Titan Group's power. I came here today to seek a partnership, Ms. Sterling.
01:08:24Have a drink with Mr. Boone first. If he's happy, the deal is a sure thing.
01:08:28Absolutely.
01:08:29Fiona, you know I don't really drink. Can I toast with tea instead?
01:08:36Bianca, it wasn't easy for you to set this meeting.
01:08:38If you ruin the mood, the deal will go south.
01:08:43But no buts. Just take a small sip to show some respect.
01:09:00Hello?
01:09:00Boss, regarding your wife, I've finished my investigation. She's meeting with someone named Fiona Hart. They're in room 308 of
01:09:07the Crown Club.
01:09:08What's this Fiona Hart's deal?
01:09:09Fiona Hart is a notorious socialite in Northport. She often mingles in elite circles. She has a terrible reputation.
01:09:15Boss, since your wife is with her, she might be in danger.
01:09:18Send me the address.
01:09:25Bianca, what's wrong? Are you not feeling well?
01:09:27I'm fine.
01:09:32Well done, Fiona.
01:09:33Mr. Boone, is Bianca Sterling to your liking?
01:09:37She's exactly my type. She's absolutely perfect. I, Cedric Boone, have seen so many women. But this is the first
01:09:43time I've seen one like her.
01:09:45Mr. Boone, a night like this is priceless. I won't disturb you any longer.
01:09:52Mr. Boone, a night like this is priceless. I won't disturb you any longer.
01:10:07Bianca, Bianca, wake up. Please wake up.
01:10:13Vincent, you're here.
01:10:15Who are you? Who let you in here?
01:10:20You bastard, how dare you touch my wife? You're dead.
01:10:24What do you think you're doing? Do you have any idea who I am?
01:10:29You dare hit me? You actually hit me! Guards, get in here now!
01:10:35You dare touch me? Kill him now!
01:10:42Come at me all at once.
01:11:14I'm sorry, sir. I was wrong. Please have mercy. I don't want her anymore.
01:11:19I'll leave right now. My woman, you think you can touch her?
01:11:24You touched my woman. Now you must pay the price.
01:11:47Honey, let's go home.
01:11:58Honey, can you stay? I'm so hot.
01:12:01Bianca, you...
01:12:10I would love to know.
01:12:19picking up the bottle from my Kah sürers Hill.
01:12:20The Great Walles
01:12:20the Money key is about,
01:12:20I am so холод drama!
01:12:35Why the hell did you kick me?
01:12:38You pervert! What did you do to me?
01:12:40You've got some nerve! Look at what you did to me!
01:12:45I did all that?
01:12:47Who else could it have been?
01:12:49Get out!
01:12:59Mommy, you're awake!
01:13:01Breakfast is ready. Eat it while it's hot.
01:13:04Okay!
01:13:09Vincent, come up here for a second. I have something to tell you.
01:13:13Sure.
01:13:14Ivy, Daddy's going to talk to Mommy for a bit. Be a good girl and eat your breakfast.
01:13:19Okay, Daddy!
01:13:31Honey, what did you want to tell me?
01:13:37Vincent, there's $700,000 in here. Take the money and leave Seabrook.
01:13:45Bianca, what are you talking about? Why are you giving me money? Why do you want me to leave Seabrook?
01:13:49Vincent, to be honest with you, regarding the three-day agreement with my father, I have no hope of winning.
01:13:55If the board of directors kicks me out, I'll have absolutely nothing left. I don't want to drag you down
01:14:01with me. I'm so grateful for everything you've done for me and Ivy lately. I can see it. You're a
01:14:07wonderful father. But I've let you down. If you stay with us, I'll only ruin your life.
01:14:12Bianca, do you think a good father and a good husband would leave his family in their time of need?
01:14:20But you shouldn't have gotten involved in this. It's my fault you're in this mess. It's not too late for
01:14:25you to leave.
01:14:27Bianca, all this time, I've only wanted you to trust me. Trust that I can protect you both. A husband
01:14:32and wife should stay together through it all. Just trust me one last time, okay?
01:14:38Vincent, thank you.
01:14:47Vince Sterling, Everpress Group is holding a press conference today to announce the results of the bet between you and
01:14:52your father. If you lose the bet, the board will remove you from office. Could we ask, are you fully
01:14:56prepared?
01:14:56Ms. Sterling, if you lose, what are your plans?
01:15:01What can she do? Her fate is to be kicked out with absolutely nothing.
01:15:11How dare you talk about my mommy like that?
01:15:13You little jinx. If you talk to me like that again, I'll rip your mouth apart.
01:15:18What did you say?
01:15:23The conference hasn't started yet. It's still anyone's game. Come on, let's go inside.
01:15:31Ms. Sterling, a few words, please. Give us a statement.
01:15:36Dad, Bianca is acting so confident. Could she really have some backup plan?
01:15:40Hmm. She's a rat in a trap. Just a final desperate act. Enough of this. Let's head inside.
01:15:50Thank you all for taking the time to attend Everpress Group's media press conference.
01:15:55As you all know, Everpress Group was built from the ground up by me and my late wife.
01:15:59Since my wife passed away, the company was handed over to my daughter, Bianca Sterling.
01:16:03But she has made enemies everywhere, even offending the Cole family.
01:16:07Combined with her mismanagement, she's caused the company severe losses.
01:16:12After much deliberation, the board unanimously decided to remove her as the chairman.
01:16:17But she used her shares to threaten us, trying to defy the board's decision.
01:16:22That led to this betting agreement.
01:16:26Bianca, your three-day pact is up.
01:16:29You said if you couldn't bring in a new supplier, you would resign to take the blame and hand over
01:16:34all of your shares.
01:16:37So that new supplier, did you find one?
01:16:44Look at her. No supplier would ever work with her now.
01:16:47Bianca Sterling, stop acting tough.
01:16:50We gave you a chance three days ago.
01:16:52If you had just left the company, you could have kept some shares and your dignity.
01:16:56But now, you have nothing.
01:16:59Soon you'll be like a rat in the street, despised by everyone.
01:17:03Is Bianca Sterling really that bad?
01:17:05Wasn't she a powerful businesswoman?
01:17:07That was all just for sure.
01:17:09Word is, her private life is a mess.
01:17:10A child out of wedlock, she gave birth to a jinx who's cursed the Sterling family for years.
01:17:16Bianca Sterling, I'm talking to you.
01:17:18Did you find a supplier or not?
01:17:20I say, how can your mouth be so nasty?
01:17:22I'm not as pathetic as Bianca Sterling.
01:17:25She's been shameless since she was a kid, seducing men left and right.
01:17:29She even gave birth to this little bastard, Jinx.
01:17:32She deserves everything coming to her.
01:17:36You dare hit me?
01:17:38Speak again and I'll cut your tongue out.
01:17:40Bianca, you've completely lost your mind.
01:17:42Not only did you bring this random man here in public, but you even dared to hit her.
01:17:47My husband is right.
01:17:49Filthy mouths deserve to be slapped.
01:17:54Everyone, come and look.
01:17:55This woman has no respect for anyone.
01:17:57She treats her elders with contempt.
01:17:59She brought a random man here to bully her own family.
01:18:03Someone like her should be despised by everyone.
01:18:05Don't talk about my mommy like that.
01:18:07My mommy isn't like that.
01:18:09You're bullying my mommy.
01:18:10You're the bad ones, you little jinx.
01:18:12How dare you talk back to me?
01:18:14Do you think I won't teach you a lesson?
01:18:16That's enough.
01:18:17Bianca, since you failed to bring in any new suppliers,
01:18:21then sign the equity transfer agreement right now.
01:18:26I'm sorry.
01:18:27I've let you all down.
01:18:31I, Bianca Sterling, am a woman of my word.
01:18:34I accept the consequences.
01:18:36Bianca, you deserve this fate.
01:18:38Bianca, you should have seen this coming.
01:18:40Why did you even bother?
01:18:49Honey, who said we've lost?
01:18:51Bianca, I'm curious.
01:18:52Where does your confidence come from?
01:18:54Don't tell me your confidence comes from this loser.
01:18:58Bianca, everyone in C-Rope knows the truth.
01:19:00This man of yours is nothing more than a gigolo you're keeping.
01:19:03How dare a loser spout such nonsense here?
01:19:06Bianca Sterling, in front of the media and the shareholders,
01:19:09you will sign this agreement, whether you like it or not.
01:19:12Vincent, a loss is a loss.
01:19:14I can handle it.
01:19:14We'll have plenty of chances to make a comeback in the future.
01:19:18Honey, I said you haven't lost, so you won't.
01:19:21Marcus Glenn of Silverline Group is here.
01:19:23Nolan Pierce of Skyreach Group is here.
01:19:25Garrett Shaw of Redwater Group is here.
01:19:31Titan Group, Skyreach Group, Redwater Group.
01:19:34Holy shit, these are all top tier.
01:19:36Mega corporations from out of state.
01:19:38Why would the heads of these companies all come to a small place like Northport?
01:19:43Could all of this be because of Vincent Drake?
01:19:49Mr. Flynn, Mr. Pierce, Mr. Shaw, what brings you all here?
01:19:53And who are you?
01:19:54I am Warren Sterling, the current chairman of Evercrest Group.
01:19:57I am also the host of this media conference.
01:19:59May I ask what brings you here?
01:20:01The chairman of Evercrest Group?
01:20:02Isn't it supposed to be Ms. Bianca Sterling?
01:20:05Mr. Flynn, you don't understand.
01:20:06Bianca Sterling is mediocre.
01:20:08She has already been removed by the board.
01:20:12Mr. Flynn, what was that for?
01:20:15Do you have any idea that all of us came here specifically?
01:20:19For Ms. Sterling?
01:20:20What?
01:20:23Mr. Flynn, Mr. Pierce, you must have the wrong person.
01:20:26Bianca Sterling is just a worthless bitch.
01:20:29Why would you look for her?
01:20:32Excuse me, which one of you is Ms. Bianca Sterling?
01:20:39I am.
01:20:42Marcus Flynn of Titan Group.
01:20:44Nolan Pierce of Skyreach Group.
01:20:46Garrett Shaw of Redwater Group.
01:20:49Our respects to you, Ms. Sterling.
01:20:52How is this possible?
01:20:53They...
01:20:55They...
01:20:55How could they be so respectful to Bianca Sterling?
01:20:59Gentlemen, what is all this for?
01:21:01Ms. Sterling, we were entrusted by someone to seek a partnership with you.
01:21:06Partner with me?
01:21:06Yes, Ms. Sterling.
01:21:07Whatever you need, be it manpower or capital, our companies will provide it.
01:21:12Ms. Sterling, this is our combined offer.
01:21:14Please, have a look.
01:21:16A $14 billion investment.
01:21:18Development rights for the Summit Project.
01:21:20And merit and trade rights.
01:21:22This is too precious.
01:21:23I don't deserve this.
01:21:24Ms. Sterling, please don't be so modest.
01:21:26It's the least we could do.
01:21:27This is nothing.
01:21:28Even if I had to give you my company, I'd do it gladly.
01:21:30These guys are quite sensible.
01:21:33But I can't accept this for nothing.
01:21:35You have to tell me who ordered you to do this.
01:21:39Well...
01:21:39Honey, since they're being so sincere, let's just accept it.
01:21:42Was it really him who arranged all of this?
01:21:45According to the betting agreement you signed, if my wife found a business partner to save
01:21:49the company, your shares must be transferred to her.
01:21:51Now it's time to sign.
01:21:53Bianca, we're all family.
01:21:55Why draw a line between us?
01:21:56It doesn't matter who holds the shares, as long as they're in the family.
01:22:00He's right, Bianca.
01:22:01Your father means no harm.
01:22:03We only want what's best for the company.
01:22:05Family?
01:22:05What a joke.
01:22:06When you were bullying my wife and my daughter, why didn't you say we were family then?
01:22:11Bianca, we were really wrong.
01:22:12Please forgive us this one time.
01:22:14Forgive you?
01:22:14Fine.
01:22:15As long as you get on your knees, kowtow and apologize, and promise never to appear
01:22:19in front of my wife again, we'll let you off.
01:22:21You...
01:22:21Bianca!
01:22:22In front of all these people, do you have to humiliate us?
01:22:25Humiliate you?
01:22:26When we were humiliating you, did you ever consider my feelings?
01:22:29But I'm still your father.
01:22:31Father?
01:22:31A man like you doesn't deserve to be my father.
01:22:34The moment you killed my mother with grief and brought this woman into our home, in my
01:22:39heart, I no longer had a father.
01:22:42Bianca Sterling, don't go too far.
01:22:44Don't forget, who raised you all these years?
01:22:47Warren Sterling, have you no shame?
01:22:49How you've treated me all these years, how you treated my mother, and how you treated Ivy,
01:22:54you know better than anyone.
01:22:56For the rest of my life, I will never forgive you.
01:22:59Enough talk.
01:23:00Are you going to kneel or not?
01:23:01If not, sign the papers already.
01:23:03Sign!
01:23:03In your dreams!
01:23:04Bianca Sterling!
01:23:05You think that by beating me, you've saved the company?
01:23:09I'm telling you, keep dreaming!
01:23:11What do you mean?
01:23:12I'll tell you the truth.
01:23:13Before the press conference, I already sold off every single share of the company.
01:23:19Ha ha ha!
01:23:20Ah, Bianca Sterling, so what if you won?
01:23:22Bianca Sterling, do you know why I hate you so much?
01:23:26Because you're just like your damn mother.
01:23:28You're disgusting!
01:23:30You dare hit me!
01:23:35Warren Sterling, who did you sell the company to?
01:23:38Tell me now.
01:23:39Bianca.
01:23:39This was the only thing my mother left for me.
01:23:42So what?
01:23:43It's already sold.
01:23:44Tell me who you sold it to!
01:23:47I bought it!
01:23:54Is it...
01:23:55Did he acquire Evercrest Group?
01:23:56What is Tristan Cole doing here?
01:24:01Tristan Cole, what are you doing here?
01:24:03It's such a big party today.
01:24:04Why shouldn't I be here?
01:24:07Mr. Tristan, you're finally here!
01:24:09We're in the same boat now!
01:24:10You can't just leave me hanging!
01:24:12Who says we're in the same boat?
01:24:14You already sold your company to me.
01:24:16To me, you're no longer of any use.
01:24:18What?
01:24:20But you said after you bought Evercrest Group, you'd still let me manage it!
01:24:23Mr. Tristan, you have to keep your word!
01:24:26Shut up!
01:24:26I never said such a thing!
01:24:28And even if I did, sorry, I've changed my mind!
01:24:31Ha ha ha!
01:24:31It was you!
01:24:33You've been behind all this!
01:24:34That's right!
01:24:35It was me!
01:24:36I loved you so much, yet you chose to marry that loser!
01:24:39Do you have any idea how much I hate you?
01:24:41Give me back my company!
01:24:43Give it back?
01:24:44Sure!
01:24:44Just spend a month with me, and Evercrest Group will be yours again!
01:24:54Where did this piece of trash come from?
01:24:57So damn noisy!
01:24:59You dare hit me?
01:25:04You're damn right I did!
01:25:06Kill him!
01:25:07Kill him now!
01:25:10Vincent!
01:25:13Daddy!
01:25:18I dare any of you to touch him!
01:25:27Grandpa!
01:25:28Grandpa!
01:25:33Mr. Drake, you are the richest man in Valoria, and our esteemed senior.
01:25:37But this is Northport.
01:25:38There's no need to defend the Jinx just to pick a fight with us.
01:25:43I, Victor Drake, have dominated the business world for years.
01:25:46I have mowed down anyone who dared to stand in my way.
01:25:49No one has ever dared to touch my family.
01:25:51And you are the first.
01:25:53Who the hell do you think you are?
01:25:55You think you're worthy of speaking to me?
01:25:58Family?
01:25:58She's just a bastard Bianca Sterling had with that loser.
01:26:01How could she be your family?
01:26:04Then let me tell you right now.
01:26:06Ivy Sterling is my granddaughter, and Vincent Drake is my own son.
01:26:12What?
01:26:12Vincent is really Mr. Drake's son?
01:26:14No way!
01:26:15How could that nobody possibly be the billionaire's son?
01:26:18Impossible!
01:26:19This can't be true!
01:26:20Mr. Drake, you're joking.
01:26:23You must be joking, right?
01:26:24You really have a death wish.
01:26:26Security!
01:26:27Seize this arrogant fool immediately!
01:26:31No way!
01:26:32This can't be real!
01:26:33Vincent, is Mr. Drake really your father?
01:26:34Tell me!
01:26:35What's your relationship with him?
01:26:39Vincent, what's your relationship with Mr. Drake?
01:26:43He's right.
01:26:45He is indeed my father.
01:26:47It's over!
01:26:48It's all over!
01:26:49I offended the wealthiest man, Mr. Drake.
01:26:52The Cole family is finished.
01:26:53Men!
01:26:53Take this scumbag!
01:26:54And drag him out of here!
01:26:56Cripple him!
01:26:57And not just him!
01:26:58The entire Cole family!
01:26:59Spare no one!
01:27:00Yes, sir!
01:27:01Mr. Drake!
01:27:01I was wrong!
01:27:02I was so wrong!
01:27:03Bianca, save me!
01:27:04Help me!
01:27:04You little rascal!
01:27:05After all these years, you finally admitted that I'm your father!
01:27:09Old man, I'm only doing this because you actually have a heart.
01:27:13For once.
01:27:14Or I'd never acknowledge you.
01:27:15So disrespectful!
01:27:16How dare you use that tone with me!
01:27:21Mr. Drake, are you really Vincent's biological father?
01:27:24Ha ha ha!
01:27:25Daughter-in-law!
01:27:26You should call me father-in-law!
01:27:28Father-in-law!
01:27:31See that?
01:27:32My daughter-in-law is much more sensible than you!
01:27:34Bianca, I'm your father!
01:27:35I'm begging you!
01:27:36Please forgive me!
01:27:37That's right, Bianca!
01:27:38We're your family!
01:27:39Please have mercy on us!
01:27:41Bianca, please!
01:27:42For the sake of us being sisters, don't hold this against us!
01:27:45If you turn your back on us, we'll have nothing, absolutely nothing left!
01:27:50You reap what you sow!
01:27:53My sweet daughter, let's go home!
