The Lost Heiress Came Back HD 1080p MBR
Transcript
00:00:01My name is Brenna Barrett. For 20 years, I believed I was this family's daughter.
00:00:09That all changed today, when they found their real daughter.
00:00:12I finally realized I was nothing but a tool to them.
00:00:16Brenna, why must it come to this?
00:00:18We found our biological daughter, but that doesn't mean you have to leave.
00:00:23Take this money. Your biological parents are dirt poor.
00:00:26I doubt they can even send a car to pick you up.
00:00:28There's probably no more than $1,000 in that envelope.
00:00:31That's what 20 years in this family is worth.
00:00:36No need. They have already sent a car.
00:00:39Brenna, what's with that attitude?
00:00:41We raised you for 20 years and you can't even say thank you?
00:00:45Mom, don't blame her. She never even finished elementary school.
00:00:49What manners could she possibly have?
00:00:51Right. I never finished elementary school.
00:00:55Because when I was 10, they forced me to stay home drawing blueprints.
00:00:59Turning me into their money-making machine.
00:01:02Your wealth.
00:01:03Your company.
00:01:05The reason you're where you are today.
00:01:09All of it is because of my designs.
00:01:11Nonsense!
00:01:12The Barrett family's success is built on our own hard work.
00:01:17Goodbye.
00:01:18Goodbye.
00:01:19I turn and leave.
00:01:20My backpack hangs on my shoulder.
00:01:23I don't look back.
00:01:25Brenna, wait!
00:01:26I have a parting gift for you.
00:01:29This bracelet costs over $100,000.
00:01:33If things get tough, you can sell it for emergencies.
00:01:39I don't need it.
00:01:42Just as she forces it into my hands, her fingers hook the chain, peeking out from my backpack's
00:01:48side pocket.
00:01:51Brenna!
00:01:52How dare you steal my necklace?
00:01:55That's my engagement necklace from Geordi.
00:01:58Worth $1,800,000.
00:02:00I see the sly glint flashing through Isabella's eyes.
00:02:04This was a trap she set.
00:02:06She's been waiting for me to jump in.
00:02:07And that so-called gift is the fuse that's about to ignite everything.
00:02:12Brenna!
00:02:12How dare you steal my necklace?
00:02:14Brenna!
00:02:15Isabella's scream draws Alec and Ruby.
00:02:17They rush over, staring at the necklace in Isabella's hands.
00:02:20Their faces filled with disappointment.
00:02:23Brenna, I offered you money.
00:02:25And you turned it down?
00:02:26Only to do this?
00:02:29She must have thought the money was too little, so she helped herself to something more valuable.
00:02:33I didn't steal the necklace.
00:02:35Then explain why it ended up in your bag.
00:02:37I stare at the necklace.
00:02:39The chain is thick.
00:02:40The stones are large.
00:02:42But the craftsmanship is crude.
00:02:43The cut and color matching are beneath standard.
00:02:47I wouldn't be caught dead wearing something this poorly made.
00:02:51Besides, when I packed my things in the attic, that necklace wasn't in my bag.
00:02:55It was you, Isabella, who slipped it in with your own hands.
00:02:59Shut up, you ungrateful brat!
00:03:01We raised you, and this is how you repay us?
00:03:05Mom!
00:03:11Though she stole my necklace and my design drafts.
00:03:13Since we're family, I'll let this slide.
00:03:18I watch her wave a blue folder in the air, and I can't help but laugh.
00:03:25Those are my designs.
00:03:26A nuclear-powered cargo ship propulsion system.
00:03:29Take a good look.
00:03:30The title is written in Amlin's language.
00:03:32You never even finished elementary school.
00:03:35How could you possibly understand any of this?
00:03:37I hold the blueprints up to the light.
00:03:40In the lower right corner,
00:03:43my personal anti-counterfeit watermark faintly appears.
00:03:46This is my personal mark.
00:03:50Feel free to compare it to Isabella's designs.
00:03:54Hers are all garbage.
00:03:57Isabella!
00:04:00Isabella,
00:04:00I thought these were trash, so I threw them in the trash can.
00:04:05These are your design drafts.
00:04:07The air creases.
00:04:09I look at Alec's ashen face,
00:04:11and suddenly feel a deep, bitter irony.
00:04:14They never knew.
00:04:15I've long stopped being that little girl they could push around.
00:04:19When I walk out of the Barrett house, my phone buzzes.
00:04:22It's a message from someone claiming to be my sister.
00:04:25She says the family is tied up with work,
00:04:27and wants me to go to Flavor Restaurant first.
00:04:30The most exclusive establishment in Shire,
00:04:33with a minimum spend of $10,000.
00:04:36Excuse me.
00:04:37Are you Miss Brenna Harper?
00:04:40The lady from the Harper family waited for over an hour,
00:04:43but had to leave for an urgent matter.
00:04:45The dishes are all served.
00:04:46Please enjoy.
00:04:48A table full of dishes spreads before me.
00:04:51I sit alone at a large round table that can seat six.
00:04:56I thought this was the first warmth for my biological family.
00:05:01Miss, could you please settle the bill?
00:05:04The total is $109,800.
00:05:07If you fail to pay, I'll have no choice but to call the police.
00:05:17Can't even afford a meal, and you dare to come to a place like this?
00:05:22How about this?
00:05:23Kneel down and polish my shoes.
00:05:24Because I'll pay your bill for you.
00:05:29Sylvie Higgins,
00:05:30Vivian Morrison,
00:05:32two rich girls in haute couture and flawless makeup.
00:05:36Who are you?
00:05:37I don't know you.
00:05:40Who we are doesn't matter.
00:05:43What matters is that you don't belong here.
00:05:50Vivian raises her hand.
00:05:52I see the undeguised malice in her eyes.
00:05:56A hand grabs her wrist from behind.
00:05:59The man is Ethan Mitchell.
00:06:01The world's richest man, head of the Mitchell group.
00:06:04How dare you cause trouble at Flavor Restaurant.
00:06:07He's the kind of man who calls the shots and she rear.
00:06:12Mr. Mitchell?
00:06:15Mr. Mitchell,
00:06:16the person who instructed the waitress and these two ladies to cause trouble is Rosie Harper.
00:06:21Now tell me,
00:06:23how dare you bully my fiancé?
00:06:25The entire restaurant falls silence in an instant.
00:06:29I stare at this devastatingly handsome man.
00:06:32Only one thought in my mind.
00:06:35Since when did I become his fiancé?
00:06:38Rosie Harper is my real parent's niece.
00:06:40When she walks in from the entrance,
00:06:42a sweet smile is still plastered on her face.
00:06:45She sees Ethan first.
00:06:47Then me.
00:06:49Ethan!
00:06:50What are you doing here?
00:06:51Rosie,
00:06:52explain.
00:06:54Why do this waitress and these two ladies all say you were the one who instructed them to pick on
00:06:58Brenna?
00:07:00Me?
00:07:01How could I possibly do something like that?
00:07:03Brenna is my cousin.
00:07:05Rosie,
00:07:05I have your transfer records.
00:07:07You paid me $5,000 to demand payment from Brenna.
00:07:10I also have our chat logs to prove it.
00:07:12Every transfer record and chat logs is highlighted in red.
00:07:16Sylvie and Vivian both avert their eyes from Rosie.
00:07:19Mr. Mitchell,
00:07:20the private room at Flavor Restaurant has surveillance.
00:07:23Miss Rosie remained there for over an hour during which she repeatedly called the waitress.
00:07:27And these two ladies,
00:07:28the timestamps and call records align perfectly with the sequence of events.
00:07:32I'm sorry,
00:07:33I'm sorry,
00:07:33Brenna.
00:07:34I was just trying to play a prank.
00:07:35I never meant to actually hurt you.
00:07:36A prank?
00:07:38You ordered over $100,000 worth of food and had a waitress force a person who was just kicked out
00:07:42of her home to pay.
00:07:43If Ethan hadn't come,
00:07:45I'd be at the police station right now.
00:07:47Sylvie Higgins,
00:07:48Vivian Morrison.
00:07:49On behalf of Mitchell Group,
00:07:50I am formally informing you,
00:07:52all our collaborations with Higgins Group and Morrison Group are terminated.
00:07:56Effective today.
00:07:57Sylvie's and Vivian's faces turn as white as paper.
00:08:00They know Ethan's punishment is a devastating blow to their families.
00:08:03All because they came here today and humiliated me.
00:08:07Rosie,
00:08:08you're a Harper,
00:08:09so I'll let this go today.
00:08:10But if you make things difficult for Brennan again,
00:08:12I won't hold back.
00:08:14I promise this won't happen again.
00:08:16She lifts her head and gives Ethan a faint smile.
00:08:19But as she passes by me,
00:08:21I hear her whisper.
00:08:24You think this is over?
00:08:26This is only the beginning.
00:08:32The farce finally ends.
00:08:37Get in.
00:08:38I'll take you home.
00:08:44I get into a Rolls Royce driven by the world's richest man.
00:08:47The leather seats are soft.
00:08:51Thank you for helping me today.
00:08:53How about treating me to a meal?
00:08:56The world's richest man wants me to treat him to a meal.
00:08:59I can't help but laugh.
00:09:03He pulls out his phone to exchange contacts with me.
00:09:06I hesitate for a moment, but give in.
00:09:10The car smoothly enters an affluent neighborhood.
00:09:14My heartbeat quickens without me realizing it.
00:09:17Did you know there's a marriage arrangement between the Mitchell and Harper families?
00:09:21A marriage arrangement?
00:09:22I turn to look at him.
00:09:24He's gripping the steering wheel.
00:09:26And the profile of his face under the streetlights is like a perfect sculpture.
00:09:30It was arranged by my grandfather and yours.
00:09:32A son of the Mitchell family is to marry a daughter of the Harper family.
00:09:35For the past two years, my grandfather has been urging me to fulfill this promise.
00:09:39But I never took it seriously until I met you.
00:09:42Are you saying you want to marry me?
00:09:44Brenna, I want you to consider it.
00:09:45Marry me.
00:09:47The world's richest man is proposing to me.
00:09:49No flowers, no ring, no bended knee.
00:09:57I need to think about it.
00:09:59Fine.
00:10:00I'll wait for your answer.
00:10:03The car stops in front of a magnificent estate.
00:10:06Ethan's car disappears around the corner.
00:10:08I turn around and face the enormous iron gate.
00:10:12The Barretts told me my biological parents lived in a poor remote village.
00:10:17Yet this estate is clearly in the most expensive part of Shiri.
00:10:23I take a deep breath and press the doorbell.
00:10:25It rings three times.
00:10:27No one comes.
00:10:30The July sun beats down on me.
00:10:32Sweat drips down my forehead.
00:10:34They said they'd send someone to pick me up.
00:10:36Yet they won't even let me through the gate.
00:10:39It seems my real family doesn't care about me at all.
00:10:46Who are you looking for?
00:10:49I'm the daughter of the Harper family lost 20 years ago.
00:10:53Impossible.
00:10:54Rosie personally went to pick up Brenna.
00:10:56They should be arriving together.
00:10:57Did you hear the news and decided to impersonate her?
00:11:00I am Brenna Harper.
00:11:03Look at what you're wearing.
00:11:04You're dressed worse than us servants.
00:11:06How could the Harper family's eldest daughter dress like this?
00:11:08I stare at this middle-aged woman in a housekeeper's uniform.
00:11:12There isn't a shred of respect in her eyes.
00:11:14What's all the racket?
00:11:15Has Brenna come home?
00:11:17A man with gray-streaked hair steps out of the elevator.
00:11:20His steps are steady, and his gaze pauses on my face.
00:11:24I'm your uncle, Abelson Harper.
00:11:27You look exactly like your mother.
00:11:28I recognized you at first glance.
00:11:30Come in.
00:11:35Wow.
00:11:37My uncle leads me through the enormous living room.
00:11:40Floor-to-ceiling windows fill the space with sunlight.
00:11:43Your room is on the third floor, the one on the east side.
00:11:46It's been kept for you since the day you were taken.
00:11:50A suite that's 150 square meters.
00:11:52Separate living room, bedroom, walk-in closet, bathroom.
00:11:57Bigger than all the rooms in the Barrett house combined.
00:12:03I don't know what to say.
00:12:05A corner of my heart is slowly softening.
00:12:08She's dressed worse than us servants.
00:12:11Just because her face resembles Mrs. Harper's, she gets to be the eldest daughter of the Harper family?
00:12:16Only Rosie deserves this family.
00:12:18I won't let anyone take away what belongs to her.
00:12:23I peel off the clothes soaked through with sweat and step into the shower.
00:12:28The moment the hot water hits me, I nearly cry.
00:12:31At the Barrett's, I could only use the cold water left after they were done.
00:12:37I turn off the water and come out wrapped in a towel.
00:12:40But the bed is empty.
00:12:41My clothes and backpack are gone.
00:12:43Brenna!
00:12:45Brenna!
00:12:45Mrs. Harper didn't prepare any clothes for you.
00:12:47I took your clothes to be washed.
00:12:49This is an old dress of Rosie's.
00:12:51You'll have to make do for now.
00:12:53I stare at the wrinkled black dress.
00:12:55Sweat stains on the collar.
00:12:57Loose threads on the cuffs.
00:12:58Clearly worn and unwashed.
00:13:00She took everything I had and gave me someone else's dirty hand-me-down.
00:13:04She did this on purpose.
00:13:06Take it away.
00:13:07I'm not wearing that.
00:13:09Brenna!
00:13:09Don't be so ungrateful.
00:13:11You can't go to dinner wrapped in a towel, can you?
00:13:15Her face shows undisguised satisfaction.
00:13:17She leaves, leaving behind that ragged dress.
00:13:24Just as I sit on the edge of the bed, wondering what to do next,
00:13:28the doorbell rings.
00:13:32Brenna, your M&G order has arrived.
00:13:3553 pieces in total, worth $30 million.
00:13:37You've made a mistake.
00:13:39The Harper family's daughter is Rosie.
00:13:41Take all of this to her walk-in closet.
00:13:45Leave them.
00:13:46They're all mine.
00:13:50Brenna, these clothes total $30 million.
00:13:53Can you even afford them?
00:13:55You're mistaken.
00:13:56This is M&G's elite collection.
00:13:57Every piece is one of kind.
00:13:58Each garment is worth over $5 million.
00:14:00Besides, these are all gifts from Brenna's friend, the founder of M&G.
00:14:04Not a single cent needs to be paid.
00:14:05I watch Rachel's face shift from smugness to shock, then to anger.
00:14:09Rosie Harper, you sent your servant to humiliate me, but you forgot one thing.
00:14:15I have never been someone you can push around.
00:14:20At six in the evening, the Harper family members start returning home.
00:14:23I change into the beige, floral M&G dress and head downstairs.
00:14:27Rosie is sitting on the sofa, and the moment she sees me, a flash of hostility crosses her eyes.
00:14:33Here, Brenna.
00:14:34Brenna, I made you some ice cream.
00:14:39Brenna, how could you do this to me?
00:14:42I was kind enough to offer you ice cream, and you threw it all over me!
00:14:47Grandpa!
00:14:48Aunt Giselle!
00:14:49Look at me!
00:14:50This dress is brand new, and now it's ruined!
00:14:53Rosie rushes over, tears already streaming down her face.
00:14:58Before you scold me, please take a look at this.
00:15:01I pull out my phone and pull up the restaurant's surveillance footage.
00:15:04In the recording, Rosie smugly ordering the waitress to demand payment from me early is crystal clear.
00:15:10Rosie, I am so disappointed in you.
00:15:14Apologize to Brenna.
00:15:16Now!
00:15:17I'm sorry, Brenna.
00:15:19I shouldn't have played that prank.
00:15:22I look at Rosie.
00:15:23Her head bowed.
00:15:24Her apology is perfunctory.
00:15:28Giselle walk to my side and take my hand.
00:15:30Mom owes you too much.
00:15:33From now on, I won't let anyone bully you.
00:15:37I look at Giselle's reddening eyes.
00:15:39In 20 years at the Barretts, I've never felt this kind of warmth.
00:15:43The dinner table is covered in exquisite dishes.
00:15:46The air is filled with the aroma of black truffles and roasted meat.
00:15:51Brenna, I'm your father, Shepard Harper, and this is your mother, Giselle.
00:15:56He's the chairman of Harper Group.
00:15:58His eyes are gentle, but carry an unquestionable authority.
00:16:03Brenna, this is your eldest brother, Ernst.
00:16:07He manages the daily operations of Harper Group and is the company's vice president.
00:16:11I look at all these unfamiliar faces.
00:16:14Some warm, some cold.
00:16:16I don't know how to respond.
00:16:18I'm their family.
00:16:19But this is my first time sharing a meal with them.
00:16:23I heard you only attended elementary school for four years.
00:16:26Even if you struggled, you should have at least finished elementary school.
00:16:30If you hadn't come back to the Harper family, how would you survive?
00:16:35The entire table falls silent in an instant.
00:16:38All eyes focus on me and Ernst.
00:16:43You think I dropped out by choice?
00:16:46It was the Barretts' decision.
00:16:47They saw my design talent and stopped me from going to school.
00:16:51Forcing me to draw blueprints to earn money for them.
00:16:57Is that so?
00:16:58Then prove it to me.
00:17:00His eyes are cold.
00:17:01A faint trace of mockery at the corner of his lips.
00:17:04I set down my fork.
00:17:06It seems this family dinner is far from the simple affair I thought it would be.
00:17:10I will prove myself.
00:17:12But not now.
00:17:14Not here.
00:17:16I stand up and leave.
00:17:19Whispers rise behind me.
00:17:20But I don't look back.
00:17:22Actually I'm going out tonight.
00:17:24Someone referred a patient to me, offering 10 million dollars.
00:17:28It's more than enough for me to establish myself in the Harper family.
00:17:32I arrive as the last disciple of the legendary Dr. Cuthbert Pierce, to treat a retired military
00:17:38commander, Vincent Mitchell.
00:17:40What I don't expect is that he's Ethan's grandfather.
00:17:43You're Dr. Pierce's last disciple?
00:17:45You've got to be kidding me.
00:17:46How old are you?
00:17:48Barely 20?
00:17:48Lindsay Cohen, an attending physician at this hospital who made department head in her early
00:17:5330s.
00:17:54She looks at me with contempt.
00:17:55Young lady, do you even know who's lying in there?
00:17:58A retired military commander.
00:18:00Even experts like us aren't qualified to treat him.
00:18:03Who do you think you are?
00:18:05Landon Scott.
00:18:06A senior internal medicine specialist who's been in the field for over 20 years.
00:18:10He hasn't even asked my name and already decided I'm a fraud.
00:18:13We're waiting for Dr. Pierce's last disciple.
00:18:16Someone at least in their 40s.
00:18:18Experienced.
00:18:19Highly skilled.
00:18:20How could it be you?
00:18:22If you can actually treat the old commander, we'll apologize to you.
00:18:26Deal.
00:18:29I walk away and sit down on a chair in the corridor.
00:18:32If not for money, I wouldn't waste a second on these people.
00:18:36Ethan, where's Dr. Pierce's disciple?
00:18:38It's been over half an hour already.
00:18:41Theo Mitchell, Ethan's cousin.
00:18:43He's on the phone with Ethan.
00:18:44I glance at my watch.
00:18:46Christopher should be out of surgery soon.
00:18:48He's Dr. Pierce's grandson and my classmate from medical school.
00:18:52Only he can verify my identity.
00:18:54I watch the operating room doors at the end of the corridor.
00:18:58The doors finally open.
00:19:00Brenna?
00:19:01Why are you sitting out here?
00:19:03Shouldn't you be inside treating Mr. Vincent?
00:19:05Your colleagues said I'm a fraud.
00:19:07They kicked me out.
00:19:08What?
00:19:10Christopher's face flushes red in an instant.
00:19:12He turns around and glares at the group of doctors.
00:19:16Dr. Pierce?
00:19:17You know her?
00:19:19Of course.
00:19:20She's my grandfather's last disciple.
00:19:22You kicked her out as a fraud?
00:19:25Impossible.
00:19:26She's so young.
00:19:28My grandfather takes disciples based on talent, not age.
00:19:31Brenna earned dual master's degrees in medicine and mechanical engineering from Norview University at 18.
00:19:38And you chased away the only one who can actually save Mr. Vincent.
00:19:43Christopher pulls me back towards the hospital room.
00:19:46The doctors who were so arrogant moments ago now can't even look me in the eye.
00:19:53Everyone, this is Dr. Pierce's last disciple, Dr. Brenna Harper.
00:19:59No one speaks.
00:20:01I turn around and push open the door to Vincent's hospital room.
00:20:05Before me, the old man on the bed is barely conscious.
00:20:08His left side is completely paralyzed, his mouth drooping.
00:20:11His eyes are clouded.
00:20:12This is the most difficult kind of post-cerebral hemorrhage case.
00:20:15Outside, those people are still mummering about me.
00:20:18They believe a young woman like me can't possibly have real skill.
00:20:22Brenna, I believe in you.
00:20:23Ethan stands behind me.
00:20:25He's the only one who never questioned me.
00:20:28I take out the syringes from my medical kit and precisely locate seven nerve targets on Vincent's neck and left
00:20:34side limbs.
00:20:35Each medication formula is my own.
00:20:37Dosage, sequence, injection depth, off by a single millimeter and it fails.
00:20:43The room is quiet.
00:20:45Everyone holds their breath.
00:20:50My grandfather moves.
00:20:52It's only been minutes.
00:20:54But just as I'm about to leave, three uninvited guests suddenly burst through the door.
00:20:59Brenna, you wretched girl!
00:21:01You never even finished elementary school and you dare to impersonate a doctor here?
00:21:05Mr. Mitchell, you've all been deceived by her.
00:21:08We're the Barretts who adopted her.
00:21:10We know exactly what kind of person she is.
00:21:12Tell the Mitchell family the truth right now.
00:21:16I have no ties to the Barrett family anymore.
00:21:19Please leave.
00:21:20How could you say that?
00:21:22I'm your adoptive father.
00:21:24If you get into trouble, the Barrett family will suffer too.
00:21:30Mr. Mitchell, don't let her fool you.
00:21:33She's been sneaky and lazy since she was a child.
00:21:36I stare at Ruby's twisted face.
00:21:39You forced me to drop out when I was ten, keeping me home to draw blueprints for money.
00:21:43I designed for over ten hours a day.
00:21:46When did you ever let me study?
00:21:47That was to train you.
00:21:49Without our training, would you be where you are today?
00:21:52Enough.
00:21:53Neville, escort the Barrett family out.
00:21:56What are you doing?
00:21:57Don't touch me!
00:21:58Brenna, you're so ungrateful!
00:22:00Brenna, just you wait!
00:22:02You'll regret this!
00:22:06The Barretts are dragged out by security.
00:22:09Ruby's shrieks echoing through the corridor, but I feel nothing in my heart.
00:22:14Are you okay?
00:22:16I'm fine.
00:22:19I've been used to it for a long time.
00:22:22But, from now on, this won't happen again.
00:22:25Ethan stands in front of me.
00:22:27His presence somehow makes me feel safe.
00:22:29For the first time, I think having someone stand by my side might not be a bad idea.
00:22:37After the Barretts are taken away, the room falls again a quiet.
00:22:40But those doctors look embarrassed.
00:22:46Dr. Harper, please, don't hold it against me.
00:22:49I already bowed to you.
00:22:51Can we just let this go?
00:22:53You need to apologize to me.
00:22:55You!
00:22:57If you have a problem with that,
00:22:59I can have the hospital director come and mediate.
00:23:04I'm sorry.
00:23:05Please forgive me.
00:23:10I'm sorry.
00:23:16I shouldn't have judged you by your appearance.
00:23:19Okay.
00:23:20This is the end of it.
00:23:21I want more than just an apology.
00:23:23I need them to understand I am not someone anyone can walk all over.
00:23:33Dr. Harper, please, come here.
00:23:40Thank you for saving me.
00:23:43Mr. Vincent, you're welcome.
00:23:45Over the next month, you'll recover gradually.
00:23:49Vincent lifts his hand and grasps mine.
00:23:52He places my hand into Ethan's palm.
00:23:54His mouth curls up slightly.
00:23:56And he tightens his grip on my hand.
00:24:02Grandpa, don't worry.
00:24:04Once you've fully recovered, we'll get married.
00:24:07Ethan and I walk out of the hospital room.
00:24:10I notice the Barretts are still there.
00:24:13The moment Ruby sees me, she immediately puts on a fawning smile.
00:24:18Brenna, look at how outstanding you are.
00:24:21Isn't that all thanks to how we raised you, Mr. Mitchell?
00:24:24Everything Brenna has today is all thanks to the Barretts family.
00:24:29Her real parents are poor.
00:24:31They could never have given her this.
00:24:32I stare at Ruby.
00:24:34The light of calculation glimmers in her eyes.
00:24:37She thinks if she lashes onto the Mitchell family, the Barretts can rise again.
00:24:42Everything Barret Group has today came from my contributions.
00:24:47I owe you nothing.
00:24:48Brenna!
00:24:49You're an ungrateful wretch!
00:24:51Just you wait!
00:24:53Ruby's face finally tears away its mask.
00:24:56Her eyes are full of resentment, but I no longer care.
00:25:09Ethan offers me a ride, so we hop into his car.
00:25:17Has this seat been occupied by many people?
00:25:20No.
00:25:21My passenger seat is reserved for you.
00:25:25And from now on, only you.
00:25:29My heart skips a beat.
00:25:30His words are so blunt that I don't know how to respond.
00:25:35The moment we step out of the car, Rosie hushes over in her high heels.
00:25:40Ethan, you're here!
00:25:41Come help me!
00:25:42Do these clothes look good on me?
00:25:43She ignores me completely and leans close to Ethan.
00:25:47I'm here to drop off Brenna.
00:25:49Oh!
00:25:50Brenna, your mother ordered some clothes for you.
00:25:52I picked out a few for myself.
00:25:53You don't mind, right?
00:25:54I glance at the new clothes hanging all over the living room.
00:25:57Rosie already has over 20 pieces draped over her arm.
00:26:00She leaves behind only what she didn't want.
00:26:02I don't mind.
00:26:03Take them all.
00:26:05My fiancé's wardrobe.
00:26:06I'll take care of it.
00:26:07No need for the Harper family to trouble themselves.
00:26:10Rosie's expression changes in an instant.
00:26:13The clothes in her hands drop to the floor.
00:26:15Fiancé?
00:26:17Ethan, you said she's your fiancé?
00:26:24Yes.
00:26:26Brenna and I will be engaged soon.
00:26:28Brenna, you've only been back for a few days.
00:26:31Why do you get what I've been yearning for over ten years?
00:26:36I won't let you have your way.
00:26:39Ethan can only be mine.
00:26:50Erste!
00:26:51Listen to me!
00:26:52Brenna doesn't deserve Ethan at all!
00:26:54What's wrong?
00:26:55Her mother ordered her a bunch of new clothes today.
00:26:58I picked out a few for myself.
00:27:00And she was upset.
00:27:03Ethan even announced in public that she's his fiancé.
00:27:06Ethan was supposed to be mine!
00:27:09But now, Brennan's been back only a few days.
00:27:13And already snatched him away.
00:27:16Regarding the marriage arrangement,
00:27:18Ethan has never shown any interest in you.
00:27:21Don't flatter yourself.
00:27:23Stop dwelling on this.
00:27:25Why not think about how to manage the companies under your name?
00:27:28I come downstairs and happen to overhear their conversation.
00:27:34Ernst glances at me.
00:27:35His eyes still cold.
00:27:37Brenna,
00:27:38Rosie says Ethan announced in public that you're his fiancé.
00:27:41Is that true?
00:27:43Yes.
00:27:49You've only known each other for a few days.
00:27:53Why would he want to marry you?
00:27:55You can go ask him.
00:28:01Brenna,
00:28:02what right do you have to become Ethan's fiancé
00:28:05or inherit the Harper family's assets
00:28:08when you don't even have a college degree?
00:28:10Shepard's and D-Sayer see expressions both shift.
00:28:13Only Rosie has a faint smile on her lips.
00:28:16Who told you I don't have a degree?
00:28:18I stand up and retrieve a document folder from my backpack.
00:28:21Inside are all my diplomas and award records.
00:28:25These are my dual master's degrees in mechanical engineering and finance from Norview University.
00:28:31These are all the awards I've won in international design competitions over the past five years.
00:28:39Fake, fake, fake!
00:28:40They must be fake!
00:28:42Where would you get the money to study abroad?
00:28:45These have certificate numbers and official seals.
00:28:48You can verify them online.
00:28:50Dual master's degrees.
00:28:52Blanna is awesome.
00:28:57My child, you suffered so much at the Barrett's house
00:29:00and still achieved all this.
00:29:03You've surpassed both your brothers.
00:29:08No way.
00:29:11How could someone who never even finished elementary school achieve something like this?
00:29:16Even if these certificates are genuine, it doesn't mean you can run Harper Group.
00:29:21Harper Group is holding an automotive design competition next month.
00:29:24If you win first place, I'll acknowledge your capability.
00:29:27And if I win first place, what do I get?
00:29:311% of Harper Group's shares.
00:29:34I'll raise it.
00:29:35If Blanna wins, I'll also give her 1% of the shares.
00:29:39I want to compete too!
00:29:43If I win, those shares go to me.
00:29:46Rosie, you studied finance and management, not design.
00:29:51Why are you competing?
00:29:52I don't care!
00:29:54Why does she get so many shares just because she's back?
00:29:57I've been in the Harper family for 20 years
00:30:00and only got a measly half percent!
00:30:03Fine.
00:30:04If I lose, all the shares in my name go to you.
00:30:07I look at Ernst.
00:30:09He thinks I'm just putting on a brave front.
00:30:12But he doesn't know those years in Norville,
00:30:15the money I earned from design drafts,
00:30:17was more than Harper Group's annual profits.
00:30:21Brenna, there's an equestrian competition next Wednesday.
00:30:26A high-end social event.
00:30:28Do you want to go?
00:30:29Fine.
00:30:30I'll be there on time.
00:30:31Just wait.
00:30:33I'll humiliate you in front of all of Shiri's elite.
00:30:37Equestrian competition.
00:30:39Shira's largest race course.
00:30:41Million-dollar membership threshold.
00:30:45A playground for the rich.
00:30:49Brenna?
00:30:51You actually came here.
00:30:52The Barrett's are ruined, but you've latched on to a new man.
00:30:57Did Mr. Mitchell give you money for dresses?
00:30:59Isabella Barrett, the Barrett's real daughter.
00:31:02Jordie Barton, my snobbish ex-fiancé.
00:31:05Do you dare compete?
00:31:08Do you dare compete?
00:31:08Oh, can you even ride?
00:31:10I've already signed up for the competition.
00:31:12I just didn't tell them.
00:31:21Brenna, this is Ethan's racehorse, Onyx.
00:31:24He's letting me ride him.
00:31:26Mr. Mitchell still cares about Rosie.
00:31:28Some woman is just a passing fancy.
00:31:32Sylvia and Vivian, Rosie's two friends who harassed me at the restaurant, look at me with disgust.
00:31:39Have you picked a horse?
00:31:41If you can't ride, falling off is no small thing.
00:31:45Ethan told me Onyx was meant for me.
00:31:47Rosie claims he let her ride him.
00:31:50She thinks snatching my horse guarantees her victory.
00:31:53Well, I will show her what I've got.
00:31:56I wonder which fool bet on you to win.
00:31:58It was me.
00:31:58I bet 10,000 stakes.
00:32:0120,000 each.
00:32:02200 million total.
00:32:03If I win, it multiplies ton for d'or.
00:32:06Betting on Alex.
00:32:0720,000 each.
00:32:08100 stakes.
00:32:10Isabella swipes her card gleefully.
00:32:12None of them know on this track there's a legend called Knight who's never lost.
00:32:17And I'm Knight.
00:32:19I choose a bay filly that has never competed.
00:32:28Miss, this horse has never been on a racetrack.
00:32:30Are you sure?
00:32:32This is the one.
00:32:38Jordi, I'm scared.
00:32:39These are Shiree's riders?
00:32:41A bunch of worthless trash.
00:32:43Knight!
00:32:44Come out!
00:32:45Don't be a coward!
00:32:47Alex Espinosa.
00:32:48An Orwell rider undefeated for two years.
00:32:51The starting gun fires.
00:32:53Nine horses bolt forward.
00:32:55Only one stays completely still.
00:32:58Go!
00:32:59You stupid horse!
00:33:01If you can't ride, get off!
00:33:04Isabella's horse finally moves by throwing her off its back.
00:33:08She collapses on the ground, face drenched in tears.
00:33:17My focus is not on her at all.
00:33:20The white figure ahead.
00:33:21Alex.
00:33:23The person you've been searching for so long is right behind you.
00:33:34Sylvie and Vivian flank me from both sides.
00:33:37Jordi blocks me directly in front.
00:33:39They want Rosie to take first place, so I'm not allowed to overtake.
00:33:44Don't even think about passing!
00:33:49Brenna, a woman like you should stay in last place forever.
00:33:53Jordi swings his riding cock at my horse's eyes.
00:33:56I lean down and release the reins.
00:34:03Sweetheart, show them what you can do.
00:34:05The bay filly kicks hard and forces her way through a half-metre gap between Sylvie and Jordi.
00:34:11Both horses lose their footing.
00:34:13Both riders tumble to the ground.
00:34:23That girl is incredible!
00:34:45I cross the finish line, the scoreboard lights up, my time is identical to Alex's, I take
00:34:53off my helmet, my hair cascading down, Rosie stands in the stands, her fists gripping the
00:35:00railing, she said a personal best, but only first place advances, she stares at my face
00:35:08on the big screen, she can't understand why I'm good at everything, I lead my bay filly
00:35:15back to the stables, Ethan stands there, immaculate in his suit,
00:35:24you're Knight, how did you find out, Alex has been searching for Knight for two years,
00:35:35Knight disappeared two years ago, and you, you were abroad for exactly two years,
00:35:43Rosie charges her horse toward me, hooves aimed at my back, Ethan wraps his arm around my waist
00:35:49and lifts me entirely off the ground, oh my, Brenna are you okay, I thought I could stop,
00:35:57Ethan I didn't do it on purpose, you did it on purpose,
00:36:02your hand struck your horse with the crop at the last moment,
00:36:10if you dare harm her again, I'll make you pay, Sylvia, I saved your life, and this is how
00:36:19you treat me, who asked you to save me, disgusting, don't touch me, I walk past them, they are both
00:36:27in
00:36:28miserable shape, Brenna, this is all your fault, you blocked me yourselves, fell off your own horses,
00:36:35and now you blame me, with that, I turn to leave, people like them aren't worth my attention,
00:36:45Alex finds out that I am Knight, Knight, this round, I'll defeat you,
00:36:53then let's wait and see, his gloved right hand gently strokes his ring,
00:36:59in Norview's underground races, some riders use concealed needles in their rings to cheat,
00:37:13fourth lap, I'm only eight meters behind, he glances back, for the first time,
00:37:20panic flashes in his eyes, I lift my crop,
00:37:29within half a lap, I catch up to him, I turn my head and flip him off,
00:37:34goodbye champion,
00:37:47I cross the finish line, a scream rings out behind me, Alex's white horse rears up on its
00:37:54volante legs, brutally stomping down on its fallen rider, his right leg is twisted at an impossible
00:38:00angle, blood seeps from the needle wound on the horse's back, staining the white coat red,
00:38:06Alex Espinoza is disqualified for using cruel methods to abuse his horse, he is permanently banned,
00:38:14the arena erupts, I take off my helmet, the Bay Philly winnors and nuzzles my face,
00:38:21I walk into the living room, holding my equestrian champion trophy,
00:38:27Rosie sits on the sofa, a document before her,
00:38:31I remember we had a bet,
00:38:36you haven't congratulated me yet,
00:38:38that was just the beginning,
00:38:40the real event is the design competition,
00:38:43Rosie pushes the document towards me,
00:38:51this is a betting agreement,
00:38:53if you don't win first place,
00:38:55you give up everything,
00:38:56these conditions are aimed at me,
00:38:59what about you,
00:39:00because you need to prove you're a harper first,
00:39:02the DNA report isn't out,
00:39:04you look like your mom,
00:39:05but maybe you had plastic surgery,
00:39:12I think Rosie has a point,
00:39:15you should cooperate,
00:39:18Giselle walks down the stairs,
00:39:23and takes the document,
00:39:25this agreement is completely unfair,
00:39:27I don't approve,
00:39:31Giselle tears the agreement to shreds,
00:39:35she suffered 20 years at the Barrett's house,
00:39:38now that she's home,
00:39:40you still bully her?
00:39:43I'll draft it,
00:39:45this agreement must be fair,
00:39:47I watch them stand up for me,
00:39:49for the first time,
00:39:51someone has my back,
00:39:52if Brenna wins,
00:39:54she receives 4% of the shares,
00:39:56and Erst resigns,
00:39:57if Rosie loses,
00:39:59all shares in her name,
00:40:00transfer to Brenna,
00:40:02why should I transfer my shares to her?
00:40:04why should Brenna risk,
00:40:06losing everything,
00:40:07if she doesn't win,
00:40:09while you walk away unscathed,
00:40:12this needs to be fair,
00:40:14Rosie bites her lip,
00:40:15her hand trembling,
00:40:16she glares at Shepard,
00:40:17the man who raised her for 20 years,
00:40:20now forcing her to sign,
00:40:21such an agreement,
00:40:21for his own daughter,
00:40:23fine,
00:40:24I'll sign,
00:40:29even if you win,
00:40:31Ethan won't be yours,
00:40:32the marriage arrangement,
00:40:34is because our uncle,
00:40:35saved Ethan's father,
00:40:38it should be Audrey,
00:40:39who marries Ethan,
00:40:41I look into Rosie's eyes,
00:40:43I finally understand,
00:40:44why she's hated me,
00:40:45from the start,
00:40:47not because of the assets,
00:40:48because of Ethan,
00:40:51who Ethan likes,
00:40:52is his business,
00:40:53and my business,
00:40:55is none of your concern,
00:40:57this is my friend,
00:40:58Dr Hackadet Martinez,
00:41:01an attending physician,
00:41:02at Door Hill Medical Plastic Surgery Hospital,
00:41:04he's here to examine Brenna,
00:41:06with an outsider,
00:41:12why should I cooperate,
00:41:13with an outsider,
00:41:16no need to check,
00:41:19Dalton Harper,
00:41:20my second brother,
00:41:22a well known celebrity,
00:41:23he walks down the stairs,
00:41:25in casual clothes,
00:41:26phone in hand,
00:41:29I've invited Colt Guzman,
00:41:31one of the finest plastic surgeons,
00:41:33in the country,
00:41:35Rosie,
00:41:36while I was away,
00:41:36this is how you treated my sister,
00:41:38I didn't,
00:41:40I was just,
00:41:41enough,
00:41:42Dr Guzman will be here soon,
00:41:45whether Brenna has had plastic surgery,
00:41:47will be determined by him,
00:41:50Dalton walks over,
00:41:51and gently puts his arm,
00:41:52around my shoulders,
00:41:55the warmth of his palms,
00:41:56seeps through the fabric,
00:41:57and I feel moved,
00:41:59Brenna,
00:41:59these are for you,
00:42:00Dalton hauls over,
00:42:01a dozen shopping bags,
00:42:02from his car,
00:42:03luxury skin care,
00:42:04designer bags,
00:42:06plush toys,
00:42:07gourmet snacks,
00:42:08he piles them before me,
00:42:09calling it an apology,
00:42:11Dalton,
00:42:12where's my gift,
00:42:15yours are in the car,
00:42:17plush toys,
00:42:18and flowers from fans,
00:42:19why does Brenna get things you bought,
00:42:23she's my sister,
00:42:25you're my cousin,
00:42:27there's a difference,
00:42:29don't you understand,
00:42:33after examination,
00:42:35I confirm,
00:42:36Miss Brenna Harper,
00:42:36has never undergone,
00:42:38any plastic surgery,
00:42:42as for Miss Rosie Harper,
00:42:45nasal implant,
00:42:46eyelid surgery,
00:42:47and lip line adjustments,
00:42:50the traces are still obvious,
00:42:52everyone turns to stare,
00:42:53at Rosie's face,
00:42:54she covers her face,
00:42:56and rolls up the stairs,
00:42:58DNA test,
00:43:00we have to do another one,
00:43:03the previous three,
00:43:04were all your own samples,
00:43:07this time I'll collect the samples myself,
00:43:11fine,
00:43:12if you insist,
00:43:14Rosie can fuss however she wants,
00:43:17that evening,
00:43:19Uncle Abelson calls me aside,
00:43:21boxes are stacked beside him,
00:43:23Brenna,
00:43:24your aunt and I are moving out,
00:43:26Uncle Abelson,
00:43:28is it because I came home,
00:43:30silly child,
00:43:31how could it be because of you,
00:43:33my kids are grown,
00:43:35and it's time we had our own space,
00:43:38he gently rolls up his trouser leg,
00:43:41I see a metal prosthetic,
00:43:42reflecting cold light,
00:43:44so he saved Ethan's father,
00:43:45on the battlefield,
00:43:46and lost a leg,
00:43:47for this family,
00:43:48he gave a limb,
00:43:49to make space for his niece,
00:43:50he moves out,
00:43:51yet Rosie,
00:43:52for the sake of clothes,
00:43:53and a man,
00:43:54stops at nothing,
00:43:55through the crack,
00:43:56in the walk-in closet door,
00:43:57I watch Rosie open my lap,
00:43:59top once more,
00:44:00password,
00:44:01the date she came home,
00:44:03got it,
00:44:09the desktop is clean,
00:44:10only one folder,
00:44:12competition design drafts,
00:44:14she inserts a USB drive,
00:44:16and copies everything,
00:44:21Kennedy,
00:44:22take a look at these designs,
00:44:24what ranking could they achieve,
00:44:25these designs are definitely top line,
00:44:27they would likely be ranked,
00:44:29in the top three,
00:44:33even our most senior engineers,
00:44:35couldn't create this alone,
00:44:38it would take a team,
00:44:41Rosie sits alone,
00:44:42in the cafe,
00:44:43staring at those exquisite,
00:44:44design drawings,
00:44:45on the screen,
00:44:46she doesn't know,
00:44:47these aren't my competition entries,
00:44:49I deliberately left,
00:44:51these drawings on my laptop,
00:44:52waiting for her to take the bait,
00:44:54this is the second time,
00:44:55I've caught Rosie,
00:44:56copying my files,
00:44:59I step out of the closet,
00:45:00quietly,
00:45:01and stand behind her,
00:45:03what are you doing on my laptop,
00:45:07I didn't take anything,
00:45:09I was just checking,
00:45:10if you were here,
00:45:11I grab her wrist,
00:45:12and pry the USB drive,
00:45:14from her hand,
00:45:15she struggles desperately,
00:45:17but my grip is iron,
00:45:18what's going on here,
00:45:22Dalton,
00:45:23Brenna twisted my wrist,
00:45:25and broke it,
00:45:26look,
00:45:26it's swollen,
00:45:29Dalton takes Rosie's wrist,
00:45:30and examines it,
00:45:31no redness,
00:45:32no swelling,
00:45:33bones completely intact,
00:45:34there's nothing there,
00:45:36are you putting on another act,
00:45:38what's going on,
00:45:43Urst,
00:45:44Brenna is trying to harm me,
00:45:46Brenna you're cruel,
00:45:49she steals my designs,
00:45:51I catch her red handed,
00:45:55this man is look at me,
00:45:56like I'm a stranger,
00:45:59though I'm his sister,
00:46:00I'm not his sister,
00:46:02I never was,
00:46:078 in the morning,
00:46:09the entire Harper family,
00:46:10arrives at the forensic center,
00:46:13Rosie is more excited,
00:46:14than anyone,
00:46:17Brenna,
00:46:18are you nervous,
00:46:19the results come out soon,
00:46:22if you're not my uncle's daughter,
00:46:24you have to return,
00:46:26everything you've taken,
00:46:27from the Harper's,
00:46:30regardless of the results,
00:46:32my engagement,
00:46:33to Brenna will not change,
00:46:34Ethan walks over,
00:46:37his fingers,
00:46:38lightly brushing,
00:46:39the back of my hand,
00:46:47the results are in,
00:46:53there's no biological father-daughter relationship,
00:46:56between Brenna and Shepard,
00:46:57right,
00:47:05the first report,
00:47:07the sample submitted by Rosie Harper,
00:47:09shows no biological father-daughter relationship,
00:47:12Did you hear that?
00:47:14No blood relation,
00:47:15I told you she's a fraud,
00:47:17the staff member still has three more reports,
00:47:19aren't you going to hear them out?
00:47:22The second,
00:47:23commissioned by Luther Harper,
00:47:24the third,
00:47:25commissioned by Ernst Harper,
00:47:26the fourth,
00:47:27commissioned by Shepard Harper,
00:47:29these three all confirm,
00:47:30a biological father-daughter relationship,
00:47:32between Brenna Harper,
00:47:33and Shepard Harper,
00:47:38impossible,
00:47:40this is impossible,
00:47:42Rosie,
00:47:43my sample,
00:47:44I personally pulled the hair,
00:47:45from Brenna's head,
00:47:46and sent it myself,
00:47:47why are you so certain,
00:47:48she isn't a Harper?
00:47:51Of the four tests,
00:47:52three affirm Brenna's lineage,
00:47:54while only one contradict it,
00:47:56the only set that denies,
00:47:58happens to be the one you submitted,
00:48:00Rosie,
00:48:01did you tamper with the samples?
00:48:04Rosie,
00:48:05opens her mouth,
00:48:06not a single word comes out,
00:48:11you were the one who took that sample,
00:48:13directly from my hair,
00:48:16why does it indicate,
00:48:17I'm not a Harper?
00:48:19Did you tamper with the test?
00:48:27Miss Rosie Harper,
00:48:28what was your purpose,
00:48:29in tampering with the samples?
00:48:31Were you trying to prevent Brenna,
00:48:32from being recognized?
00:48:33I didn't,
00:48:35Brenna is my cousin,
00:48:36why would I do that?
00:48:38I will host a grand welcome banquet,
00:48:41for Brenna,
00:48:42inviting all of Shiri's elite,
00:48:47I watch Rosie flash her sweetest smile at the cameras,
00:48:51her performance is really convincing,
00:48:58kneel,
00:49:01Luther's cane strikes the floor tiles with a muffled thud,
00:49:05Rosie kneels,
00:49:08Grandpa,
00:49:08I was wrong,
00:49:10I was jealous of Brenna,
00:49:12I was afraid she'd take all your love,
00:49:18Brenna,
00:49:19please forgive me,
00:49:21I don't hate you,
00:49:24but I won't forgive you,
00:49:31Rosie lifts her head,
00:49:33a flash of venom crossing her eyes,
00:49:36Alec clutched that golden-brossed invitation,
00:49:39his hand trembling,
00:49:41An invitation from the Harper family,
00:49:44they're holding a welcome banquet,
00:49:46and specifically want us there,
00:49:48the day Brenna left,
00:49:50her biological parents sent a car,
00:49:53could it really be the Harpers,
00:49:55Isabella jumped up from the sofa,
00:49:57impossible,
00:49:59aren't her real parents from some poor backwater,
00:50:01I looked into it,
00:50:03the Harpers lost a daughter 20 years ago,
00:50:06we adopted Brenna exactly 20 years ago,
00:50:10then she's someone we can't afford to offend,
00:50:13we treated her like a servant,
00:50:15framed her for theft,
00:50:16and threw her out,
00:50:18she hates us,
00:50:19a cold,
00:50:21glint flash in Alec's eyes,
00:50:23we raised her for 20 years,
00:50:25she can't forget that debt,
00:50:27and neither can the Harpers,
00:50:33Dad,
00:50:34you really think she'll help us?
00:50:36She doesn't have a choice,
00:50:38if we lash onto the Harpers,
00:50:40we can turn our fortunes around,
00:50:44but what if she rejects us in front of everyone?
00:50:47We'll be a laughing stock,
00:50:49a menacing smile curled on Alec's lips,
00:50:52then we'll beg her in front of all of Shuri's high society,
00:50:57if she dares refuse,
00:51:00she will be labeled ungrateful,
00:51:04smart move, Dad,
00:51:07you're brilliant,
00:51:14Brenna,
00:51:15what are you doing here?
00:51:17Leave,
00:51:18the Harpers are Shire's top elite,
00:51:20you're not one of them,
00:51:22don't embarrass yourself,
00:51:24we raised you for 20 years,
00:51:26don't drag us down with you,
00:51:30get out,
00:51:32Mac grabs my arm,
00:51:34Isabella shoves my back,
00:51:36Ruby clears the path,
00:51:41I take a deep breath,
00:51:43and with all my strength,
00:51:44I shout,
00:51:46Mom!
00:51:55Mac releases my arm,
00:51:57Brenna,
00:51:58what's wrong?
00:51:59Who did this?
00:52:04Mr. Mitchell?
00:52:05Mrs. Harper?
00:52:08You know Brenna?
00:52:11Brenna is my daughter,
00:52:13what were you doing just now?
00:52:17She...
00:52:18she's your daughter?
00:52:20The Barretts are stunned,
00:52:23Isabella steps back,
00:52:25Ruby's mouth opens and closes like someone is choking her,
00:52:33Ethan looks at the Barretts,
00:52:35they keep apologizing,
00:52:36saying it was a misunderstanding,
00:52:38but the red marks on my arm haven't faded,
00:52:41Mr. Barrett,
00:52:43you stopped her from school,
00:52:45forced her to draw design drafts for money,
00:52:48and made her a servant,
00:52:50now that she's home,
00:52:51you lay hands on her again?
00:52:55Mr. Mitchell,
00:52:56this is all a misunderstanding,
00:52:59Neville,
00:53:00escort the Barrett family out,
00:53:02Neville walks over with security,
00:53:04the Barretts are carried out,
00:53:13Brenna,
00:53:14I had these three dresses sent from Paris,
00:53:17wear this one tonight,
00:53:20I change into the red gown,
00:53:25when the skirt spreads out,
00:53:27I catch a flash of admiration in his eyes,
00:53:35but the other two dresses on the ack,
00:53:37one drenched in red wine,
00:53:40Get out,
00:53:41the other with a zipper that just happened to break,
00:53:47Rosie stands at the door,
00:53:49a wine glass in her hand,
00:53:53I say nothing,
00:53:54she thinks ruining the backups will make me lose face,
00:54:00she's really stupid,
00:54:02I walk onto the stage in that red gown,
00:54:05the moment the lights hit me,
00:54:07the hall falls silent,
00:54:10honored guests,
00:54:11this is my daughter,
00:54:12Brenna Harper,
00:54:15the guests burst into thunderous applause,
00:54:18then I see Isabella heading toward the stage,
00:54:21her eyes fixed on me,
00:54:22her expression off,
00:54:24Audrey quietly sticks out the foot,
00:54:27oh my god,
00:54:28her padded bra fell out,
00:54:29everyone's eyes are on her,
00:54:31wasn't she an a-cap before,
00:54:33Brenna,
00:54:35Ethan pulls out a ring box from his pocket,
00:54:37the world's richest man's man is proposing to me in front of all of Shiri,
00:54:42marry me,
00:54:43the tips of his ears are red,
00:54:44but his eyes hold mine,
00:54:45I don't know why he chose me,
00:54:47but I don't want to refuse,
00:54:48yes,
00:54:50applause drowns the hall,
00:54:53Rosie stands in the corner,
00:54:55her nails digging into her palms,
00:54:58Denise Wagner,
00:54:59heir to the Wagner family,
00:55:01do you know why you fell,
00:55:02it was Audrey,
00:55:04she tripped you,
00:55:05I saw everything,
00:55:06come with me,
00:55:08I'll help you get revenge,
00:55:10his hand lands on Isabella's shoulder,
00:55:12she doesn't push it away,
00:55:15yes,
00:55:16Mr. Wagner,
00:55:17I'll come with you,
00:55:20Brenna,
00:55:21we've come to apologize,
00:55:22tomorrow afternoon we'll treat you to drinks at the Imperial Bar,
00:55:25Sylvie and Vivian wear sincere smiles,
00:55:27but their eyes tell a different story,
00:55:30fine,
00:55:31I'll be there on time,
00:55:33what awaits me at the bar tomorrow won't be just drinks,
00:55:36but I still agreed,
00:55:38because I want to see what they've got up their sleeve,
00:55:40the next afternoon at four,
00:55:42I arrive at Imperial Bar,
00:55:44seven young people are in the private room,
00:55:46bottles and small packets litter the table,
00:55:48white powder,
00:55:49yellow pills,
00:55:49blue pills,
00:55:51so,
00:55:51you're Brenna,
00:55:53not bad looking,
00:55:55nice figure too,
00:55:56I wonder what she's like in bed,
00:55:57Harden Moreno,
00:55:58the black sheep of the Moreno family,
00:56:00Brandon Vargas,
00:56:01the deputy mayor's son,
00:56:03they look at me like I'm prey,
00:56:05Harlan drops a blue pill into my glass,
00:56:07it fuzzes and dissolves rapidly,
00:56:10Brenna,
00:56:10have a drink,
00:56:12drink this,
00:56:14and the past is wiped clean,
00:56:16I worked in bars in Norview,
00:56:17I know what that is,
00:56:19addictive,
00:56:20and an overdose causes unconsciousness,
00:56:23drink up,
00:56:24you'll enjoy it,
00:56:26two men block the door,
00:56:27Brandon is behind me,
00:56:29Sylvia and Vivian stand beside me smirking,
00:56:31they never came here to apologize,
00:56:33from the very beginning,
00:56:35this was a trap,
00:56:36I'm not drinking that,
00:56:37Brenna,
00:56:38we kindly came to make amends,
00:56:40and you won't even have one drink,
00:56:42you look down on us don't you,
00:56:44I clench my fists,
00:56:46my heart is racing,
00:56:48but not from fear,
00:56:52it's because it's been a long time,
00:56:54since I've been in a fight,
00:56:57Harlan walks up to me with the glass,
00:56:59the blue pill completely dissolved in the wine,
00:57:02drink it,
00:57:02or I'll pour it down your throat myself,
00:57:04I grab Harlan's jaw,
00:57:06and pour the entire glass into his mouth,
00:57:07he chokes and doubles over,
00:57:09his face instantly turning purple,
00:57:10you,
00:57:13grab her,
00:57:14Brandon lunges from behind,
00:57:16I sidestep and ram my elbow into the bridge of his nose,
00:57:19blood spurts out,
00:57:21the remaining five rush me at once,
00:57:23I kick over the coffee table,
00:57:25bottles shattering everywhere,
00:57:30three minutes later,
00:57:32all seven men are on the floor,
00:57:39I stand amid the wreckage,
00:57:43anyone else want to challenge me,
00:57:45I turn to leave,
00:57:47suddenly,
00:57:47a group of men in black appears at the door,
00:57:51the leader wears glasses,
00:57:52and a small mustache,
00:57:54Jonas Fowler,
00:57:55manager of this bar,
00:57:57Mr. Fowler,
00:57:58this woman caused a disturbance in the bar,
00:58:01she crippled Harlan and Brandon,

00:58:09no need,
00:58:12his suit is immaculate,
00:58:14and his eyes coldly sweep over the people on the floor,
00:58:19how dare you,

00:58:28how to deal with them,
00:58:29Mr. Mitchell,
00:58:30I was wrong,
00:58:31I didn't know she was your woman,
00:58:34there's a lot you don't know,
00:58:39Harlan,
00:58:40Thiago,
00:58:41what are you doing here,
00:58:43I've waited seven years for this day,
00:58:49back then,
00:58:50when you and your mother forced my mom out,
00:58:53what did you say,
00:58:54what did you say,
00:59:00that she was useless,
00:59:02and that she deserved it,
00:59:04that she was useless,
00:59:05stop,

00:59:08Thiago,
00:59:09yeah,
00:59:10just hitting him is boring,
00:59:13let's make a bet,
00:59:14Harlan,
00:59:15there are card tables on the ninth floor,
00:59:18you bet against me,
00:59:20lose one round,
00:59:22cut off one finger,
00:59:24pay ten million,
00:59:25are you insane,
00:59:27scared,
00:59:30a woman dares to go to the card table against me,
00:59:34I've trained five years in poker,
00:59:35three years in dice,
00:59:37no one can beat me,
00:59:38Brenna,
00:59:38you're going to regret this,
00:59:41do you even know how to shuffle,
00:59:43Harlan spreads the cards across the table,
00:59:45in a perfect flan,
00:59:46flicks his wrist,
00:59:47and the entire deck flips in midair,
00:59:49a ripple of admiration goes through the room,
00:59:52that's skill,
00:59:54both players,
00:59:55please reveal your cards,
00:59:58I flip over my first card,
01:00:00ace of spades,
01:00:01Harlan's smile freezes for a moment,
01:00:04I flip over the second,
01:00:05ace of diamonds,
01:00:07his hand starts trembling,
01:00:09I flip over the third,
01:00:11ace of hearts,
01:00:13impossible,
01:00:14you cheated,
01:00:14Harlan,
01:00:16you shuffled this deck yourself,
01:00:18switch to dice,
01:00:20lowest score wins,
01:00:23fine,
01:00:24but the loser cuts off three fingers,
01:00:27with this many witnesses,
01:00:28no one can back out,
01:00:30I pick up the dice cup,
01:00:31give it three light shakes,
01:00:33and set it down,
01:00:35Harlan is still shaking his,
01:00:37his hand nearly a blur,
01:00:41I lift the cup,
01:00:42the six dice are stacked,
01:00:44in a perfect column,
01:00:45the one on top,
01:00:47is a one,
01:00:50six ones,
01:00:51how did you do that,
01:00:53your turn,
01:00:54Jonas walks over,
01:00:56and lifts dice,
01:00:56one by one,
01:00:58the first dice,
01:00:59one,
01:00:59the second,
01:01:00one,
01:01:00the third,
01:01:01still one,
01:01:02the fourth,
01:01:03one,

01:01:06three,
01:01:07no,
01:01:08impossible,
01:01:10this can't be,
01:01:12all color has drained from his face,
01:01:15his lips are trembling,
01:01:17and his pants are already wet,
01:01:24Tiago,
01:01:25it's your turn,
01:01:28Tiago picks up the knife,
01:01:32Haran's right hand is pinned to the table,
01:01:34five fingers spread apart,
01:01:37he's crying,
01:01:39Tiago,
01:01:40don't,
01:01:41please,
01:01:42I'll give you all my shares,
01:01:44anything you want,
01:01:52before you forcibly injected my mother with blue ice,
01:01:56my mother and I begged you,
01:02:01did you show mercy then,
01:02:05I turn around,
01:02:08a scream rings out behind me,
01:02:12over a dozen black sedans block the road,
01:02:15Brandon Vargas,
01:02:16his nose still wrapped in bandages,
01:02:19holds an iron rod,
01:02:20dozens of men in black stand behind him,
01:02:24Mr. Mitchell,
01:02:25let's go one on one,
01:02:31who do you think you are,
01:02:33how dare you challenge our boss,
01:02:38Jonas punches Brandon in the nose,
01:02:41blood sprays out again,
01:02:45then he pulls out his phone,
01:02:50Brandon,
01:02:51take a look at this,
01:02:53it's a photo of Brandon's father in bed with a young woman,
01:03:00The next,
01:03:01a photo of Brandon pinning a girl's shoulder down and burning her with a cigarette butt,
01:03:06where did you,
01:03:09these materials have already been sent to the prosecutor's office,
01:03:14the Vargas family is finished,
01:03:23Rosie opened her walk-in closet door and she froze,
01:03:28over 50 pieces of clothing all slashed to shreds,
01:03:32her favorite MNG cocktail dress cut straight from the collar to the hem,
01:03:37who did this,
01:03:39the former housekeeper who was fired is still by her side,
01:03:43it wasn't me,
01:03:45they were fine when I cleaned,
01:03:47Rosie goes over the surveillance footage three times,
01:03:51in the recording,
01:03:52only Rachel entered her room in the afternoon,
01:03:57no one else,
01:04:00Rosie knows it was me,
01:04:04I know she won't find any evidence,
01:04:07because I already tampered with the footage,
01:04:11Rosie returns to her room and stares at the shredded fabric,
01:04:15these clothes total several million,
01:04:18but she doesn't care about the money,
01:04:20what enrages her is that I can silently destroy everything she owns,
01:04:25Brenna,
01:04:25this isn't over between us,
01:04:30I know she won't let me go,
01:04:33but she's no match for me,
01:04:36I sit in my room,
01:04:38watching my computer screen,
01:04:40the Murano family's stocks are plummeting,
01:04:42I'm short sailing,
01:04:44you don't seem surprised at all,
01:04:48I looked into you,
01:04:50dual masters from Norview University,
01:04:53graduated at 18,
01:04:54your two studios pull in billions every year,
01:04:58Miss Brenna Harper,
01:05:00I've placed the fruit and juice here,
01:05:01Miss Rosie Harper is still checking the surveillance footage,
01:05:04don't worry,
01:05:05I've already taken care of the footage,
01:05:08she won't find anything,
01:05:10you were the one who ruined Rosie's clothes?
01:05:13she ruined three of my gowns before,
01:05:15nearly making me lose face at the banquet,
01:05:17and ruined one of my MNG dresses,
01:05:19I just settled things with her,
01:05:22well done,
01:05:24Rosie and Ernest,
01:05:26they teamed up to make you sign that betting agreement?
01:05:28yes,
01:05:29if I lose the design competition,
01:05:31I have to give up everything from the Harper family,
01:05:34Rosie even added another condition,
01:05:36that I could never work at Harper group again,
01:05:41how dare they treat you like this?
01:05:42they think they can force me to back down,
01:05:45but they don't know,
01:05:46I never back down,
01:05:53regardless of the outcome of that bet,
01:05:56I'm marrying you,
01:05:59not because of the arrangement,
01:06:02because I want to,
01:06:08damn it,
01:06:10I can only swallow this loss in silence,
01:06:12without evidence,
01:06:14if I bring it to grandpa,
01:06:15I'll just get another beating,
01:06:21Rosie,
01:06:22you have to help me,
01:06:23my dad's been arrested,
01:06:25the Moreno family scandals are all over the country,
01:06:29how am I supposed to help you?
01:06:31aren't you close with the tax bureau chief,
01:06:33and the people at the prosecutor's office?
01:06:36Harlan,
01:06:37don't kid yourself,
01:06:38Ethan is targeting at you,
01:06:40you think I can go against the world's richest man?
01:06:43but you said you'd help me deal with Brenna!
01:06:48I never said that.
01:06:55Rosie Harper,
01:06:57you dare play me?
01:07:03I won't let you get away with this,
01:07:06and I won't let Brenna off either,
01:07:08you will pay the price!
01:07:13Brenna,
01:07:13where is Ellie?
01:07:14Just tell me.
01:07:15I told you,
01:07:17I don't know.
01:07:18You stood up for her and scolded me?
01:07:20That proves you've been in contact.
01:07:22Jaceon Russell,
01:07:23the Russell family's playboy,
01:07:26Ellie's ex-boyfriend,
01:07:27Patrick's biological father.
01:07:30Jaceon,
01:07:31did you know that when Ellie left,
01:07:32she was pregnant with your child?
01:07:35I know.
01:07:36Did you know she gave birth alone in Norview,
01:07:39unable to even afford the hospital bill?
01:07:41Did you know she went back to work,
01:07:44before her postpartum recovery was even done?
01:07:46You didn't know.
01:07:49You were on vacation with your new girlfriend at the time.
01:07:55I walk into the abandoned factory's operations room,
01:07:59wearing a mask.
01:08:01Dozens of masked technicians sit at computers,
01:08:04data streams flashing rapidly on the screens.
01:08:08King,
01:08:09Black Dragon and physicians are built,
01:08:11the other side is still pressing hard.
01:08:19My fingers fly across the keyboard.
01:08:23The continuously falling curve at the center of the screen
01:08:26begins to slowly climb.
01:08:30It's rebounding.
01:08:31The market value is coming back.
01:08:33Two hours.
01:08:34I forcibly pulled the stock price,
01:08:36which had been plunging off a cliff,
01:08:39back up.
01:08:41King,
01:08:42the client has transferred the remaining payment,
01:08:44four billion.
01:08:49Mr. Mitchell,
01:08:50King pulled back all 40 billion we'd lost in just two hours.
01:08:55King.
01:08:57A legend that only exists in the Undercity.
01:09:00A shadow in the financial world.
01:09:06No one knows King's real identity.
01:09:08But today,
01:09:09King saved my Black Dragon.
01:09:13I owe this person one.
01:09:18Who the hell are you?
01:09:20Brenna,
01:09:21the Mitchell family formally proposed marriage today.
01:09:23Ethan's father called your dad.
01:09:26They want you and Ethan to marry as soon as possible.
01:09:29What do you think?
01:09:32I don't want to get married.
01:09:34Is it because you don't like Ethan?
01:09:37No.
01:09:39It's that I don't want to get married right now.
01:09:44I just came home and family matters aren't settled yet.
01:09:48Okay.
01:09:49Mom supports your decision.
01:09:51I'll have your dad decline the Mitchells.
01:09:55Do you know how many women in Shiri dream of marrying Ethan?
01:09:59And you actually refuse?
01:10:01Now that you've turned him down,
01:10:03he'll come back to me.
01:10:05When you accepted Ethan's proposal,
01:10:07I thought you actually liked him.
01:10:09Turns out you were just after his money and status.
01:10:12Rosie sits in a corner booth wearing a sun hat,
01:10:15secretly taking photos of Tiago and me having lunch.
01:10:20She angles the camera perfectly.
01:10:22It looks like we're kissing.
01:10:24She sends the photos to Ethan,
01:10:26saying we're on a date that we've gone through an entire bottle of wine,
01:10:30implying we're going to a hotel.
01:10:34Ethan appears at the restaurant entrance.
01:10:36His tie is crooked.
01:10:38Fine sweat on his forehead.
01:10:40He rushed straight here.
01:10:41But he hasn't come to interrogate me.
01:10:44The moment he sees me,
01:10:46he exhale with relief.
01:10:53Who is he?
01:10:54Why are you with him?
01:10:56Mr. Mitchell,
01:10:57Bren and I have a purely professional relationship.
01:10:59Karen suddenly bursts into the restaurant
01:11:02and lunges for Tiago.
01:11:03But Ethan strikes first.
01:11:05His fist smashes into Harlan's face,
01:11:08sending him flying.
01:11:10A tooth flies out
01:11:11and bounces off the floor tiles.
01:11:15Brenna!
01:11:16You destroyed the Moreno family!
01:11:20Ethan!
01:11:21What Harlan said is true!
01:11:23Brenna is using you to destroy the Moreno family!
01:11:26Ethan doesn't look at her.
01:11:28He only looks at me.
01:11:30Brenna,
01:11:31I'll only listen to you.
01:11:34Ethan pulls me out of the restaurant
01:11:36and pushes me into the passenger seat.
01:11:40The moment the door locks,
01:11:41I see the emotion in his eyes.
01:11:43Not anger,
01:11:44but fear.
01:11:47We're going to register our marriage
01:11:49right now.
01:11:51Once it's done,
01:11:52you're legally my wife.
01:11:54No one will dare touch you again.
01:11:58Ethan,
01:11:58Ethan, stop the car.
01:11:59No.
01:12:00It's not that I don't want to marry you.
01:12:02I don't think the timing is right.
01:12:05You promised me
01:12:06you wouldn't force me.
01:12:09Ethan grips the steering wheel.
01:12:13He eases off the accelerator
01:12:15and the car pulls to the side of the road.
01:12:18Brenna,
01:12:19I won't let anyone hurt you.
01:12:22But you have to promise me too.
01:12:24No matter what happens,
01:12:26don't take off that ring.
01:12:29All right.
01:12:34Rosie,
01:12:35I'm finished.
01:12:36The Moreno family
01:12:38has completely collapsed.
01:12:40The prosecutor's office
01:12:41is after me.
01:12:44What are you doing here?
01:12:47If anyone sees you with me,
01:12:49I'm finished too.
01:12:53You have to help me!
01:12:54I know you're connected
01:12:56to the underworld in Shirei.
01:12:58Help me find someone
01:12:59to take out Brenna
01:13:01and Tiago.
01:13:03Why should I help you?
01:13:05You're in love with Ethan.
01:13:09Once Brenna is dead,
01:13:11he'll be yours.
01:13:15How many men can you get?
01:13:18Jay's gang was broken up
01:13:19by the police,
01:13:20but his most ruthless men
01:13:21are still around.
01:13:23Fifty of them.
01:13:24If you pay,
01:13:25they'll even take on
01:13:26the military.
01:13:33I'll provide the money,
01:13:34but I have one condition.
01:13:37I want Brenna
01:13:38to disappear completely.
01:13:39Eleven at night,
01:13:40Tiago and I
01:13:41step out of the elevator.
01:13:43All the lights
01:13:44in the parking garage
01:13:45suddenly go out.
01:13:46Something's wrong.
01:13:47Don't turn on your phone light.
01:13:49Footsteps.
01:13:50At least thirty men
01:13:51closing in
01:13:52from all directions.
01:13:54That's the bitch.
01:13:55She snapped my arm
01:13:56last time.
01:13:57Guys,
01:13:58beat her to death.
01:13:59The lights come on.
01:14:00Thirty burly men
01:14:01are holding steel pipes
01:14:02and machetes
01:14:03in front of me.
01:14:04I set down my backpack
01:14:06and flex my wrists.
01:14:08You take the left
01:14:09and I'll take the right.
01:14:12Race you?
01:14:14Better midnight snack.
01:14:25Jay lies on the ground,
01:14:27his right leg bent
01:14:28at an horrible angle.
01:14:29Thirty men,
01:14:31not a single one
01:14:31can still stand.
01:14:33My heel presses
01:14:34on his chest.
01:14:35He can't breathe.
01:14:37Who sent you?
01:14:41Rosie Harper
01:14:42and Harlan Morano.
01:14:45They put up
01:14:46two million
01:14:46for your head.
01:14:49I get home
01:14:51and open my laptop.
01:14:52The garage's surveillance
01:14:54footage recorded everything.
01:14:55I download the video
01:14:57and then edit it
01:14:58frame by frame.
01:14:59In the footage,
01:15:00the garage lights
01:15:01stay on the whole time.
01:15:03No ambush,
01:15:04no fight.
01:15:05Just Thiago and me
01:15:06walking out of the elevator,
01:15:08getting into the car
01:15:09and leaving.
01:15:11Rosie,
01:15:12you want surveillance
01:15:13footage as evidence?
01:15:14I'll give it to you.
01:15:16It's just that
01:15:17what you get
01:15:17won't be quite
01:15:19what you expected.
01:15:20Hiring people
01:15:21to commit murder,
01:15:22that's a serious charge.
01:15:26But you have no alibi
01:15:28because you don't even know
01:15:29what happened tonight.
01:15:32Are you ready?
01:15:33Brenna,
01:15:34come look.
01:15:35I specially ordered
01:15:36this car for you.
01:15:37Deep blue SUV,
01:15:39smart voice start,
01:15:41bulletproof glass.
01:15:42Do you like it?
01:15:43I love it.
01:15:44Thanks, Mom.
01:15:48Giselle,
01:15:49this car is gorgeous.
01:15:50Can I...
01:15:51Rosie,
01:15:52this is for Brenna.
01:15:53Brenna doesn't even
01:15:54have a driver's license.
01:15:55She can't drive.
01:15:57Let me use it for now.
01:15:59Rosie pulls open
01:16:00the driver's door
01:16:01and sits inside.
01:16:02She adjusts the seat,
01:16:04strokes the steering wheel,
01:16:05a look of complete
01:16:06entitlements on her face.
01:16:07I'm taking it then.
01:16:09Thanks, Giselle.
01:16:10Thanks, Brenna.
01:16:18Rosie drives my car
01:16:19onto the road,
01:16:20but she doesn't know
01:16:22that the brakes
01:16:22on this car
01:16:23have been tampered with.
01:16:24Not to kill her,
01:16:27just to teach her a lesson.
01:16:30Red light.
01:16:31She hits the brakes.
01:16:33No response.
01:16:35Again.
01:16:36Still nothing.
01:16:37A large truck
01:16:39is crossing the intersection.
01:16:40She yanks
01:16:41the steering wheel hard.
01:16:43Front of the car
01:16:44avoids the truck,
01:16:45but the sky
01:16:46slams into the guardrail.
01:16:50Rosie,
01:16:51how are you?
01:16:53Ernst,
01:16:54it was Brenna.
01:16:56This car was ordered
01:16:57for her.
01:16:58She must have tampered
01:16:59with the brakes.
01:17:00How do you know
01:17:01it was her?
01:17:02She hates me!
01:17:09Brenna,
01:17:10did you tamper
01:17:11with Rosie's brakes?
01:17:14What evidence do you have?
01:17:17You studied
01:17:18mechanical engineering.
01:17:19Making a car
01:17:19lose its brakes
01:17:20is easier than
01:17:21eating a meal for you.
01:17:22I look at Ernst.
01:17:23His eyes are full
01:17:24of anger
01:17:25and disappointment.
01:17:26He doesn't care
01:17:27that Rosie hired
01:17:27people to kill me.
01:17:29He only cares
01:17:30that Rosie...
01:17:32He never sees me
01:17:34as his sister.
01:17:35Ernst!
01:17:39I was with Brenna
01:17:40the whole time
01:17:41we looked at that car.
01:17:42She never even
01:17:43touched the steering wheel.
01:17:45But...
01:17:46Do you believe
01:17:46your mother
01:17:47or that cousin of yours
01:17:48who lies through her teeth?
01:17:51I'm sorry.
01:17:52I checked
01:17:52the surveillance footage.
01:17:54Mom was telling the truth.
01:17:55Save your apology.
01:17:57Just now,
01:17:58you looked like
01:17:58you wanted to tear
01:17:59your own sister apart.
01:18:01Mr. Mitchell,
01:18:02Harlan is already
01:18:03on the wanted list.
01:18:04Both the prosecutor's office
01:18:05and the police
01:18:06are after him.
01:18:08Not enough.
01:18:09Last time he hired
01:18:11people to go after Brenna,
01:18:12this time he teamed up
01:18:13with Rosie.
01:18:15Find him
01:18:17and break one of his legs.
01:18:19Understood.
01:18:22Harlan rummages
01:18:23through the basement
01:18:24and finds
01:18:25Tiago's mother's belongings.
01:18:27A diary,
01:18:29a necklace,
01:18:29a bracelet.
01:18:31If you call the cops,
01:18:33I'll burn everything.
01:18:34What do you want?
01:18:36The abandoned sports field
01:18:37next to the old school.
01:18:40Tonight at ten,
01:18:42bring Brenna.
01:18:43Just the two of you.
01:18:48If you call the cops,
01:18:49I'll burn everything.
01:18:51I'll be there.
01:18:53You wait.
01:18:56I know it's a trap,
01:18:58but my mother's belongings,
01:18:59I have to get them back.
01:19:01Harlan and Jay
01:19:01have fifty men
01:19:02lying in ambush
01:19:03around the field.
01:19:04They think I'll be scared.
01:19:06But Tiago and I
01:19:08stand side by side
01:19:09in the middle of the field.
01:19:11The moment the gunshots
01:19:12ring out,
01:19:13we roll into the bushes.
01:19:15The grass here is waist high.
01:19:17We hide in the shadows.
01:19:19Each time someone approaches,
01:19:22we silently take them out.
01:19:23Half an hour later,
01:19:25Jay only has about ten men left.
01:19:28Dozens of fully-on police officers
01:19:31and snipers pour in
01:19:32from all directions.
01:19:34Neville stands beside
01:19:35the police carts.
01:19:37Phone in hand,
01:19:38Ethan called them.
01:19:45Sorry I'm late.
01:19:48No, the timing is perfect.
01:19:52I later learned
01:19:53that Ellie was falsely accused
01:19:55of plagiarism
01:19:56in Norview.
01:19:57They claimed she plagiarized
01:19:59her own design.
01:20:01And the client
01:20:02that was originally hers
01:20:03has already signed with them.
01:20:05She'd rather lose the lawsuit
01:20:07than owe Jaycee on anything.
01:20:10Yet if she loses,
01:20:12her brand will belong
01:20:14to the plagiarist.
01:20:17How will she support Patrick?
01:20:20I have to help Ellie.
01:20:26But how?
01:20:30Rosie Harper,
01:20:32you are suspected
01:20:33of hiring people
01:20:34to commit murder.
01:20:35Please cooperate
01:20:36with our investigation.
01:20:38What are you doing?
01:20:39This is the Harper family.
01:20:41Don't touch me!
01:20:45I let them in.
01:20:48Giselle?
01:20:50How could you do this?
01:20:52You hired people
01:20:53to kill my daughter.
01:20:57From today on,
01:20:59you are no longer a Harper.
01:21:06Your things have been packed
01:21:07and are outside the door.
01:21:08When you come out
01:21:09of the police station,
01:21:10go direct to your own home.
01:21:11Don't step through
01:21:12this door again.
01:21:13Mr. Harper,
01:21:14you can't do this!
01:21:15You watched Rosie grow up!
01:21:17You're fired as well.
01:21:21Your wages have been settled.
01:21:23Leave with her.
01:21:27Ernest stands at the entrance
01:21:29of the police station.
01:21:32Rosie's lawyer has completed
01:21:34the bail procedures.
01:21:35She's wheeled out
01:21:36in a wheelchair,
01:21:37her legs in casts.
01:21:40Ernest!
01:21:41You came to get me!
01:21:44I didn't come
01:21:45to take you home.
01:21:49Mom and Dad said
01:21:50you can't come back.
01:21:51Then what are you here for?
01:21:53To gloat?
01:21:55I'm here to tell you,
01:21:57stop going after Brenna.
01:22:00You can't beat her.
01:22:02And you can't beat Ethan either.
01:22:04You got bail this time
01:22:05because the evidence
01:22:06is insufficient.
01:22:07But if happens again,
01:22:09I won't help you anymore.
01:22:13Are you done?
01:22:15Yes.
01:22:18You'll regret this.
01:22:20The Harper family,
01:22:22the Mitchell family,
01:22:23Brenna,
01:22:23every single one of you
01:22:25will regret this.
01:22:28Ernest carries his suitcase
01:22:29out the main house gate.
01:22:31Mom stands on the steps
01:22:33and doesn't stop him.
01:22:34Dad is at the window,
01:22:36not even parting the curtains
01:22:37to look at him.
01:22:41Ernest,
01:22:42I wasn't going
01:22:43to persuade you.
01:22:45I just wanted to tell you,
01:22:47you're always my brother.
01:22:49He turns around
01:22:50and looks at me.
01:22:51The morning light
01:22:52shines from behind him.
01:22:55Brenna,
01:22:55I'm sorry.
01:22:57I owe you an apology.
01:22:59Today is the design
01:23:00competition results
01:23:01announcement day.
01:23:03Isabella walks in
01:23:04arm in arm
01:23:05with Dennyus Wagner.
01:23:06Denise is the heir
01:23:07of the Wagner family,
01:23:09lecherous
01:23:10and arrogant.
01:23:14Brenna,
01:23:15how dare you show up?
01:23:17You never even finished
01:23:18elementary school.
01:23:19Who knows which ghost designer
01:23:20you hired to draw
01:23:21those drafts?
01:23:24You picked on my woman
01:23:26and that doesn't
01:23:27sit right with me.
01:23:28I'm giving you a chance
01:23:29to apologize.
01:23:31If you don't,
01:23:32the Harper family's
01:23:33design competition
01:23:34might not go ahead
01:23:35as planned.
01:23:36I don't reply.
01:23:37I smash my fist
01:23:39into Dennis' nose.
01:23:40The moment the blood
01:23:42sprays out,
01:23:43Isabella screams.
01:23:44You!
01:23:48Ethan walks into the lobby
01:23:50just in time
01:23:51and kicks Dennis away.
01:23:54Security,
01:23:55throw this man out.
01:23:58Security drags Dennis out.
01:24:00Isabella hesitates
01:24:01for a moment
01:24:02but follows him out.
01:24:05Brenna!
01:24:07I'm sure you'll take
01:24:08first place today.
01:24:10You've won so many
01:24:12international awards.
01:24:13These competitors,
01:24:14how could any of them
01:24:15compare to you?
01:24:18The winner must have
01:24:19been decided in advance.
01:24:21She's the Harper family's
01:24:22daughter.
01:24:22We're just here
01:24:23to make up the numbers.
01:24:25I look at Rosie's
01:24:26gentle, smiling face.
01:24:28Every word of her praise
01:24:30is meant to draw
01:24:31hatred toward me.
01:24:32Rosie,
01:24:33do you really think
01:24:34I'll be intimidated
01:24:34by others' skepticism?
01:24:44Actually, Miss Brenna Harper
01:24:46didn't grow up
01:24:47in the Harper family.
01:24:48She grew up
01:24:49in the Barrett family.
01:24:50My family knows her best.
01:24:52She never even finished
01:24:53her elementary school.
01:24:54Her dual master's degrees
01:24:56and international awards,
01:24:57all fake.
01:25:01How is that possible?
01:25:03Didn't Harper Group
01:25:04say she graduated
01:25:05from MIT?
01:25:07You've all been fooled.
01:25:11Excuse me,
01:25:12I'm Tommy McCoy,
01:25:13head of Knight Studio.
01:25:14Every certificate
01:25:15of Brenna's
01:25:16was archived
01:25:17by our studio.
01:25:18The scanned copies
01:25:18of these certificates
01:25:19are now displayed
01:25:20on the main screen.
01:25:25You're her people.
01:25:26Of course you'd
01:25:27speak up for her.
01:25:28Miss Barrett,
01:25:28you claim Brenna
01:25:29never even finished
01:25:30elementary school.
01:25:31Then how do you explain
01:25:33that at the age of 10
01:25:34she designed
01:25:35an entire set
01:25:36of auto parts blueprints
01:25:37for the Barrett group?
01:25:38Those blueprints
01:25:39are still in the
01:25:40Barrett group's archives.
01:25:45Shall I pull them up
01:25:46for everyone to see?
01:25:48The entire hall
01:25:49falls silent.
01:25:50Those who were
01:25:51whispering moments ago
01:25:52are now staring
01:25:53at the certificates
01:25:54on the big screen.
01:25:56Isabella's face
01:25:57goes red.
01:25:57She's probably forgotten.
01:25:59The very reason
01:26:00the Barretts could
01:26:00expand their business
01:26:01was because of
01:26:02the designs I drew.
01:26:04Now using this
01:26:05to attack me
01:26:05will only make
01:26:06everyone realize
01:26:07the Barretts not only
01:26:09abused their
01:26:09adoptive daughter,
01:26:10they also plagiarized
01:26:12the work of a
01:26:1210-year-old child.
01:26:15Next is the
01:26:16anonymous voting segment.
01:26:18All shortlisted works
01:26:20will be displayed
01:26:21only by entry number,
01:26:22not author name.
01:26:24Every designer
01:26:25and judge present
01:26:26has one vote.
01:26:28Voting is closed.
01:26:30The work currently
01:26:31ranked first is
01:26:32entry 132.
01:26:35Rosie almost jumps up.
01:26:40But I see Tommy
01:26:41step forward.
01:26:42I object.
01:26:43Entry 132 is plagiarized.
01:26:45This design is the
01:26:46award-winning work
01:26:47of our studio's
01:26:48lead engineer
01:26:49at the Norview
01:26:50International Golden

01:26:51four years ago.
01:26:53Every single line,
01:26:54every single piece of data
01:26:55is identical to the original.
01:27:03Please provide evidence.
01:27:05Tommy opens his laptop
01:27:07and connects it
01:27:08to the main screen.
01:27:09He pulls up
01:27:09the Golden Wrench
01:27:10award records,
01:27:11the original design draft
01:27:13creation timestamps,
01:27:14and the date stamps
01:27:15on every layer of backup.
01:27:19Oh!
01:27:20Oh!
01:27:20Oh!
01:27:21Oh!
01:27:22Oh!

01:27:24Oh!
01:27:26Oh!
01:27:28Confirmed.
01:27:29Entry 132
01:27:30is identical
01:27:31to the Golden Wrench
01:27:32award-winning work.
01:27:34This entry
01:27:35is disqualified.
01:27:38According to the rules,
01:27:40after disqualifying
01:27:41entry 132,
01:27:42first place
01:27:43shifts to
01:27:43entry 133.
01:27:45Congratulations
01:27:46to Brenna Harper!
01:27:52The entire hall
01:27:53erupts in thunderous applause.
01:27:55I walk onto
01:27:56the stage
01:27:56and receive
01:27:57the trophy.
01:27:58Rosie sits
01:27:59in the audience,
01:28:00her face
01:28:00as white as paper.
01:28:01Now announcing
01:28:02the author's names.
01:28:04First place,
01:28:05Brenna Harper.
01:28:06Second place,
01:28:07Night Studio Team.
01:28:10Harper Group
01:28:11will offer
01:28:12the winners
01:28:12lucrative
01:28:13high-end
01:28:14automotive

01:28:28According to the agreement,
01:28:29Ernst resigns
01:28:30as CEO
01:28:30of Harper Group
01:28:31and his 5% shares
01:28:32are transferred
01:28:33to Brenna.
01:28:33Rosie's half-percent
01:28:34shares in her name
01:28:35are also transferred
01:28:36to Brenna.
01:28:36Ernst places
01:28:37the signed
01:28:38share transfer
01:28:39agreement
01:28:39on the table.
01:28:41Brenna,
01:28:42I'm sorry.
01:28:43These shares
01:28:44are what you deserve.
01:28:45Rosie stares
01:28:46at the agreement
01:28:47and refuses
01:28:47to sign.
01:28:48I won't sign.
01:28:51You have to sign
01:28:52whether you want to
01:28:53or not.
01:28:53This agreement
01:28:54is legally binding.
01:28:56If you don't sign,
01:28:57we'll resolve it
01:28:58in court.
01:28:58Rosie picks up the pen,
01:28:59her hand shaking,
01:29:00but she signs anyway.
01:29:02After Ernst steps down,
01:29:03Dalton will serve
01:29:04as interim CEO.
01:29:05Brenna,
01:29:05you are the youngest
01:29:06but most outstanding
01:29:07child in our family.
01:29:08Grandpa is proud of you.
01:29:09My daughter
01:29:09suffered outside
01:29:10for 20 years.
01:29:12She has finally returned
01:29:14to where she was
01:29:15meant to be.
01:29:16I look down
01:29:16at the transfer agreement.
01:29:18It bears Ernst's signature,
01:29:20Rosie's signature,
01:29:21Grandpa's seal,
01:29:22the notary's
01:29:23embossed stamp.
01:29:24This is their promise
01:29:25and my victory.
01:29:27But this is only
01:29:28the beginning.
01:29:28A greater storm
01:29:29is brewing
01:29:30in the darkness.
