00:00For ages, the angels watched humanity from above, never interfering, never choosing sides.
00:08But today, everything changes.
00:19Look, the holy spring is glowing!
00:30Her husband's not even with her. That's just sad.
00:34She must have a pure soul. The holy spring doesn't show just anyone.
00:38Maybe, the spring wants us to help her.
00:52The holy spring has not shown the mortal realm in 10,000 years.
00:56Yet, today, it reveals a human woman. Heaven has chosen her.
01:02I will descend to Earth myself.
01:05The number you're trying to reach is unavailable.
01:08Five months pregnant, and my husband hasn't shown up once.
01:13Right now, he's probably off playing the devoted lover to his mistress.
01:20It's okay, baby. As long as you're healthy, that's all mommy wants.
01:28Please, I haven't eaten days.
01:31Just give me something. Anything.
01:33You! Get the hell out of my way!
01:35Hey! Hey! Back off!
01:37Touch him again, and I'll call the police!
01:46Are you okay? Here, take this.
01:49Thank you. God bless you, miss.
02:03Compassion like hers
02:05Deserves heaven's favor
02:18Sophia only prayed for one thing
02:20A healthy child
02:24Which of you would like to answer her prayer?
02:26Me! Me! Pick me!
02:28I love her already!
02:30No fair! I saw her first!
02:33Fortuna
02:33You shall go
02:35Woohoo!
02:37Mommy! I'm coming for you!
02:44Sign it, Sophia
02:45Sign it, Sophia
02:52Cord blood donation? What is this?
02:55Vanessa's pregnant. She has a severe immune condition. Your baby's cord blood could save her.
03:01Your mistress, Vanessa? You want to use our baby to save her?
03:05She's carrying my child, too. Sign it, and I'll give you a million.
03:14So this is who you've become? You'd risk our baby for your mistress?
03:20It's just cord blood. Vanessa will recover after the transplant.
03:26Oh, hell no! Cheating-ass daddy, did you seriously just mess with mommy and me?
03:31Congratulations! Karma's about to ruin your life.
03:36Shhh!
03:37Who said that?
03:42Mommy, I'm right here in your tummy!
03:45My tummy?
03:49Yup! The archangel said you have a pure heart, so he sent me to bless you with good fortune!
03:56Oops!
04:00Now what?
04:04Oopsie!
04:04Sorry, mommy. I jumped a little too hard.
04:07See? Now you believe me, right?
04:10You're so cute!
04:11Are you really my baby?
04:13Wait, I can actually see and hear you?
04:17Only mommy can see me, and I'm not just your baby, I'm your fortune angel, too!
04:23Fortune angel?
04:27Fine. If you want more money, we can negotiate.
04:29But you are going to that hospital today and donating the cord blood.
04:35Vanessa comes from a far better family than you.
04:38Her child is the real heir to the Sterling family.
04:41It's cord blood, not a kidney.
04:44Stop being dramatic.
04:47Excuse me? Humans pray to me for blessings every day,
04:51and these idiots want to use me for cord blood?
04:56Baby, I don't care if you're an angel or not.
04:59You're my child, and I will never let anyone hurt you.
05:08Sophia, what the hell are you doing?
05:10Nobody touches my baby.
05:12And one more thing?
05:14I want a divorce.
05:16Divorce?
05:17Sophia, who do you think you are?
05:19Fine.
05:20Ryan, freeze all her cards.
05:22If she refuses to sign, she doesn't get another cent to the Sterling family.
05:27Sir, she's pregnant.
05:29Do as I said.
05:30Understood.
05:31Let's see how long you survive without Sterling money.
05:36Hmph.
05:39Hmph.
05:41Ugh!
05:42I hate him.
05:43Trash Daddy's bullying Mommy again.
05:46Mommy, don't worry.
05:47I'll protect you.
05:49Don't cry, Mommy.
05:51It's just money.
05:52And trust me, I've got tons of it.
05:56Hmph.
06:10Oh, my God.
06:26Oopsie, looks like my powers got nerfed when I came down to the human world.
06:31I can't just magic up free cash anymore.
06:34That's okay, baby.
06:36Mommy can work.
06:37I'll make money for us.
06:39Aw, Mommy.
06:41Okay, maybe I can't spawn money out of thin air anymore.
06:45But with my talent for creating wealth, I can totally turn you into a billionaire queen.
06:51Hmph.
06:51We don't need billions, baby.
06:54As long as Mommy can raise you after the divorce, I'll be happy.
06:58Oh, trust me.
06:59I'm gonna make Trash Daddy regret dumping us.
07:03Who needs the Sterks?
07:04You're gonna be crazy rich without them.
07:06Hmph.
07:15Mommy, remember the hundred grand you saved before you got married?
07:19I almost forgot about it.
07:20Now log into your account, open the stock app, and dump every cent into Neva.
07:28Baby, are you sure?
07:29The stock's been crashing for seven straight days.
07:32That's all the money I have left.
07:34If this fails, we'll end up homeless.
07:36Trust me.
07:37Mommy, the second the market opens tomorrow, that stock is going to the moon.
07:43Okay.
07:45Mommy trusts you.
07:57Wow.
07:59Mr. Sterling's here.
08:10Clear the way.
08:13Hey, watch it.
08:17Sophia, what are you doing here?
08:20Mrs. Sterling used all her premarital savings to buy Neva stock.
08:24The company's about to get delayed.
08:26Sophia, you might as well set your money on fire.
08:29That's none of your business.
08:30My money, my decision.
08:32Ooh.
08:34Once you lose everything, maybe you'll finally come crawling back and sign the papers.
08:44That's right, Mommy.
08:45Just wait till the market opens.
08:47Trash Daddy's about to eat his words.
08:50Come on, Neva.
08:52You can do it.
08:57What the heck?
09:01It's rising.
09:07Oh, my God, it's really rising.
09:14Oh, my God.
09:16Neva was supposed to get delisted yesterday, and now it's rocking up like crazy?
09:21That's insane.
09:23Literally doubled in one day.
09:25Damn it, I should have held my shares.
09:26In just one day, my $100,000 turned into $200,000.
09:31Told you so.
09:32So, does Mommy believe me now?
09:34I do.
09:35I really do.
09:36You're heaven's gift to me.
09:38You're my lucky star.
09:40Aw, Mommy.
09:42As long as you're happy, this is nothing.
09:45I'm gonna turn my Mommy into real old money.
09:48And when that happens, the Sterling family's gonna choke on their own arrogance.
09:52Okay.
09:53Then Mommy's looking forward to that day.
09:55Just beginner's luck.
09:57That little win won't last.
09:59Sooner or later, you'll come crawling back, begging me to take you in.
10:04Don't take too long, Sophia.
10:07If Vanessa misses her treatment, I'll never forgive you.
10:11No way, you'll never see that day.
10:21William, one day, you're going to regret everything you did to me, and I'll date you.
10:34Unbelievable.
10:35Three days in, and we've already made another $500,000.
10:39Baby, we're going to Whole Foods instead of Walmart.
10:42Ugh, Mommy.
10:43You're literally the mother of a fortune angel.
10:46Future queen of the billionaire elite, remember?
10:49Can we go bigger than this?
10:51Mommy, next up, we're making a much bigger move.
10:56Bigger?
11:01Mommy, look at this.
11:04Phantom Realm Technologies.
11:06Right now, nobody cares about their VR tech.
11:10But trust me, in less than two weeks, this tech is going to blow up worldwide.
11:15And when that happens, their stock price is going up a hundred times over.
11:21Wow.
11:22Then if we invest everything into them now, we'd make a fortune.
11:26That's my smart mommy.
11:28But we only have $500,000 right now.
11:33That's not nearly enough to buy meaningful shares.
11:36We're going to need a lot, lot more money.
11:43I want to sell these.
11:45What are they worth?
11:46Mommy, these are all gifts from Trash Daddy.
11:50If people find out you're selling your jewelry for cash,
11:53they're definitely going to gossip behind your back.
11:56At this point, who cares what they say anymore?
11:59Nothing matters more than making sure we survive.
12:02Please, I really need the money as soon as possible.
12:10Mrs. Sterling, the pieces are beautiful,
12:12but I'm afraid we can't accept them.
12:15But what?
12:16Why?
12:21We can negotiate the price.
12:24It's not about the money.
12:26Last week, the Sterling family issued a notice.
12:28Any jewelry with the Sterling crest may not be resold.
12:31Every single piece you brought in has a mark.
12:34No one in the market would dare buy them.
12:37What?
12:37Ugh, Trash Daddy planned this.
12:42He's such a calculating snake.
12:45William never intended for me to own anything.
12:49What a joke this marriage is.
12:52I understand.
12:54Thank you anyway.
12:59Sophia?
13:00What are you doing here?
13:02Don't tell me, you're stalking us?
13:05Funny, I was about to ask you the same thing.
13:07Shouldn't you be in a hospital instead of jewelry shopping?
13:10I-I-I'm...
13:12William, Sophia's scaring me and my baby.
13:14We only need a little cord blood.
13:17Sophia, you've dragged this out long enough.
13:19Sign the papers and do the donation now.
13:21I said no.
13:21I will never hurt my child.
13:23And I don't believe she's really sick.
13:26Where's the diagnosis?
13:27Where's the report?
13:28They're...
13:28at home.
13:32Wait.
13:36What's this?
13:38So broke that you had to come sell your jewelry?
13:42Getting money is easy, Sophia.
13:44Sign the papers.
13:46And I'll wire you a million dollars immediately.
13:50I don't need your filthy money.
13:52Without me, you'll never live the luxurious life you had before.
13:55You're nothing without the Sterling family.
13:57You misunderstood.
13:58I'm not selling these.
14:00I'm taking out the trash.
14:08Sophia!
14:09And this, too.
14:11I'm not the one who can't live without you.
14:13You're going to regret everything you did today.
14:23Are you insane?
14:24William is the best man in the world.
14:27How could you treat him like...
14:28If you enjoy picking up trash I threw away?
14:32Be my guest.
14:34Sophia...
14:35You just called me trash?
14:37How dare you?
14:44Mommy!
14:45That was amazing!
14:46Woo!
14:47You absolutely destroyed Trash Daddy and his fake little mistress!
14:52Yeah, but baby, where are we supposed to get enough money now?
14:55We only have half a week left.
14:57Wait, Mommy, look!
15:00America's largest fine art auction is coming soon.
15:04I smell money!
15:06Mommy, we're going to this auction!
15:27Now this is my playground!
15:30Mommy, ready to get rich off everyone else's bad taste?
15:32Time to go beach treasure hunting!
15:35Mommy's ready.
15:50Sophia, what exactly are you doing here?
15:52I already asked for a divorce.
15:54You don't get a say in my life anymore.
15:56William, don't be so hard on her.
15:58Maybe she's just here to try her luck.
16:00Who knows?
16:01She might score a Thriftstorp miracle tonight.
16:03A miracle?
16:05Please.
16:06Luck doesn't work for people like her.
16:08Ever since Vanessa got pregnant, Sterling Group's stock has gone up.
16:13That child is our family's blessing.
16:17Tonight, we'll buy anything my grandson likes.
16:20Thank you, Margaret.
16:22I just know this baby is going to bring even more glory to the Sterlings.
16:26Oh, please.
16:28Oh, please.
16:28I'm the reason this family's been winning lately.
16:31The second I'm gone, watch the whole empire start falling apart.
16:38Ugh, pathetic bitch.
16:50Ladies and gentlemen, welcome.
16:52Thank you for joining us tonight.
16:54Thank you for joining us tonight.
16:54The Grand Gala Art Auction.
16:56And now, let the bidding begin.
17:00Our opening piece this evening, Crimson Ravree by Matteo Volkoff.
17:04Starting bid, $800,000.
17:09Oh, the baby kicked.
17:13What happened?
17:14Is my grandson all right?
17:16I think he likes this painting.
17:19Maybe we should bring it home for him?
17:22Of course we should.
17:23If my grandson wants it, then it's obviously meant for the Sterling family.
17:31$800,000.
17:35$800,000 going once, going twice, and sold.
17:41Congratulations, ma'am.
17:42An excellent buy.
17:44Master Volkoff's market value has doubled in the past two years,
17:47and collectors are still driving prices up.
17:49Wait, I remember a friend of mine paid $102,000,000 for another Volkoff piece last year.
17:53I heard the British royal family has been collecting this entire series.
17:56This painting could easily resell for $1.5 million.
17:59The Sterling snagged it for only $800,000?
18:02That's practically free money.
18:04Good eye. Nice call.
18:08See?
18:09Vanessa's carrying the Sterling family's little blessing.
18:12The baby's not even born yet and already making money for the family.
18:17You see that, Sophia?
18:18Sophia? That's real luck.
18:20Some people are simply born blessed.
18:22Some aren't.
18:24Even their children turn out to be burdens, not blessings.
18:28Ugh, please.
18:29That was my luck they borrowed.
18:30And it's just a basic painting.
18:32Mommy, don't even stress.
18:33The real treasure's still coming.
18:35And when it does,
18:36it'll make this thing look like pocket change.
18:39Okay.
18:40Mommy, trust you.
18:41Top 47 going on.
18:55Look at her.
18:56She hasn't raised her paddle once.
18:58She clearly came here just to pretend she belongs.
19:00Well, collecting art isn't just about taste.
19:03It's about fortune, too.
19:05She's never had that kind of luck.
19:12Our next item.
19:13A sculpture by an unknown artist.
19:16Estimated to be over 100 years old.
19:18Opening bid?
19:20$50,000.
19:22Oh, my God.
19:23What is that?
19:24A half-finished rock hippo?
19:26It's hideous.
19:27Who cares how old it is?
19:28It's huge, ugly, and takes up space.
19:30Buy it and congrats.
19:30Now you own expensive construction trash.
19:32Seriously, what idiot would spend $50,000 on that ugly brick?
19:38Mommy, Mommy, that's the one.
19:40That thing is an insane hidden treasure.
19:48Mommy, Mommy, that's the one.
19:50That thing is an insane hidden treasure.
19:52I can feel it.
19:53That stone hippo is the biggest treasure in the room tonight.
19:56It's worth 10,000 times more than Trash Daddy's little painting.
20:00If there are no bids, we'll go ahead and pass on this.
20:05$50,000.
20:12Sophia, don't tell me you're so broke now that this is the only thing you can afford to bid on.
20:17Sophia, sculptures like this are usually just practice pieces for amateur artists.
20:23It's not even finished.
20:25You seriously think...
20:27...
