00:00Look at the diamonds on it.
00:01Could you have ever afforded that?
00:03My husband gave me this.
00:04It has nothing to do with you.
00:07Serena suddenly reached over and ripped it off my wrist.
00:10Mia, how can you ever afford something like this?
00:12Everyone here is someone important.
00:14You stole it.
00:15If you're broke and hungry, just say so.
00:17You can pack up the leftovers after the anquit.
00:20Serena glances at the child in Mia's arms.
00:22A thief raising a kid.
00:23That child won't turn out to be anything.
00:26Someone will deal with him eventually.
00:29My voice turned loud.
00:32Serena, shut your mouth.
00:33Don't you dare talk about my son like that.
00:36Serena stared at the toddler in Mia's arms.
00:38That's Xavier Sinclair's son.
00:41Mia, why do you have him?
00:43Are you kidnapping him?
00:44Do you have any idea what you're doing?
00:59My boyfriend Holden loved testing me.
01:05Right after graduation, he asked me to take out a $5 million mortgage for him.
01:15I said no, and he bought Serena an $8 million villa in cash next day.
01:20Holden stood in front of me, holding the property deed.
01:22Mia, I was rich the whole time.
01:24I only pretended to be broke to test you.
01:26Too bad you failed.
01:27I'm disappointed.
01:29We're done.
01:30Mia gives him a small smile.
01:31I just turned around and left.
01:34My father was the richest man in the country.
01:36I had been pretending to be broke too.
01:39Four years later, I saw Holden again at the National Wealth Summit.
01:42He had just entered the top 50 on the fortune rankings.
01:45Holden walks into the venue with Serena on his arm.
01:48He saw me in plain clothes, with no jewelry, holding a child in my arms.
01:52Somehow, he thought I was a nanny.
01:55Mia, you've fallen so low that you're babysitting for someone else now.
01:58You really are nothing without me.
02:00If you had passed my test back then, you would be standing beside me today.
02:05Then again, I should thank you for helping me find someone who actually loves me.
02:09I ignored him because I was still annoyed at my dad for forcing me to come here.
02:12I had finally cleared one day to spend with my son.
02:15Now it was being wasted at this summit.
02:17Because I had to hold my son, I had not worn any jewelry.
02:20But in Holden's eyes, I was like a nanny taking care of others' baby.
02:23Serena gives Holden a soft smile.
02:25Mia must regret that she hadn't clung to you.
02:27Honestly, this is exactly where she belongs.
02:30She suits the nanny life.
02:31Serena turns to a passing staff member.
02:35Everyone here today is important.
02:37How did you let a nunny in?
02:38If something happens, that's on you.
02:40Get her out.
02:42My clothes had no jewelry or obvious logo,
02:45but they were hand-tailored by Italy's top master atelier.
02:48For the past two years, I had been quietly taking over my father's companies.
02:52I rarely appeared in public, so no one here recognized me.
02:54They only looked at my clothes and believed Serena.
02:57A staff member steps forward politely but coldly.
03:00I'm sorry, ma'am.
03:01Non-attendants need to leave.
03:03I'm here for the summit.
03:05I have every right to be in this room.
03:07Holden looked at Mia and laughed.
03:10You used to pay tuition with scholarships.
03:12At the wealth summit?
03:14That's a joke.
03:15If you're really here for the summit, show me your name on the list.
03:18The name on the list was my dad's, Leonard Ellis.
03:20After he retired this year, everything would transfer to me.
03:24Holden caught my pause and turned back to the staff.
03:27This woman failed my test years ago.
03:29She lost her chance to become my wife.
03:32Some people are just small-minded.
03:34You give them a once-in-a-lifetime chance, and they still can't hold on to it.
03:39I had arrived early, and the real heavyweights had not shown up yet.
03:42Most people already inside were not qualified to know me.
03:47A few recognized Holden and laughed along.
03:49She must be sick over it.
03:51Losing a man like Mr. Holden has to hurt.
03:55Four years together, and she still couldn't keep him.
03:59Holden's expression suddenly turns cold.
04:02Back in college, Holden chased me hard.
04:04Neither of us revealed our real family backgrounds.
04:07We dated for four years like any normal couple.
04:09I passed 98 of his tests like part-time jobs,
04:12donating blood, cutting off friends, and my graduate school offer.
04:16Then I found out every hardship had been arranged by him.
04:19He had been pretending to be poor, and while he tested me,
04:22he gave Serena cars and apartments.
04:23So I refused his 99th test and left the country.
04:26The crowd was still laughing.
04:28Holden's voice turns flat.
04:29Enough. Get her out. I don't want to look at her.
04:32Two staff members stepped toward me and reached for my arms.
04:35I shook them off.
04:36Don't touch me.
04:38I'm here representing with Leonard Ellis,
04:40the richest man in the country.
04:43I'm his daughter.
04:44The room burst into laughter.
04:45Serena covers her mouth and laughs.
04:46Leonard Ellis' daughter graduated from Stanford.
04:50She came back two years ago
04:52and has already taken over most of the Ellis group.
04:56The only thing you two share is the last name.
04:58A Nancy pretending to be her?
05:00You're really overreaching.
05:04Actually, since we were classmates,
05:06when Holden and I have children,
05:08maybe we'll hire you to watch them.
05:10I looked at her.
05:11That assumes you can actually have one?
05:14And what exactly is your career?
05:16Keeping a man interested?
05:17She had been trying to get pregnant
05:19with Holden's child for a long time.
05:21She wanted his family to accept her,
05:23but she had miscarried more than once.
05:25For months, she had been quietly drinking fertility medicine,
05:27but nothing worked.
05:28Serena's face turns ugly.
05:29Are you deaf?
05:31Get her out of here!
05:32Two staff members grabbed my arms
05:34and dragged me toward the exit.
05:35My son cried hard in my arms.
05:37I'll walk myself.
05:38Don't touch my son.
05:39Holden's face changed.
05:39Mia, what did you just say?
05:40That's your son?
05:41I held my son tighter.
05:43Yes.
05:44He's mine.
05:45Holden stared at me in disbelief.
05:46You actually married someone else?
05:49No, there's no way you moved on from me.
05:50I looked at him.
05:51Why wouldn't I?
05:52We broke up.
05:53His eyes stopped on my wrist.
05:55Mia's sleeve has been pulled up during the struggle,
05:57revealing the bracelet.
05:58His face settled into a knowing expression.
06:01Mia, you're still acting tough.
06:03I knew you couldn't forget me.
06:05Why else would you still be wearing
06:06the butterfly bracelet I gave you?
06:10If you admit it now and ask me to forgive you,
06:12I might give you another chance.
06:14Holden had given me a cheap silver chain years ago.
06:16It had rusted and disappeared long before this.
06:19This one was platinum and diamonds.
06:21My husband, Xavier, had made it for me by hand
06:23because he knew I loved butterflies.
06:25I kept my voice calm.
06:27Look at the diamonds on it.
06:29Could you have ever afforded that?
06:31My husband gave me this.
06:32It has nothing to do with you.
06:35Serena suddenly reached over
06:36and ripped it off my wrist.
06:38Mia, how can you ever afford something like this?
06:40Everyone here is someone important.
06:42You stole it.
06:43If you're broke and hungry, just say so.
06:45You can pack up the leftovers after the anquit.
06:48Serena glances at the child in Mia's arms.
06:50A thief raising a kid.
06:51That child won't turn out to be anything.
06:54Someone will deal with him eventually.
06:57My voice turned loud.
07:00Serena, shut your mouth.
07:01Don't you dare talk about my son like that.
07:04Serena stared at the toddler in Mia's arms.
07:06That's Xavier Sinclair's son.
07:09Mia, why do you have him?
07:11Are you kidnapping him?
07:12Do you have any idea what you're doing?
07:14The entire room goes quiet.
07:16Everyone knew Xavier was the world's top private investor.
07:19His assets stretched across the globe.
07:21Half the people here had fought to attend this summit
07:23because they heard Xavier might appear.
07:25My son pressed himself against my neck.
07:27She's my mommy.
07:29She's my mommy.
07:31You're a bad person.
07:33Serena's expression turns reckless and greedy.
07:35Mia, hand him over.
07:37You're not getting a ransom and you're going to prison.
07:40People around us started reaching toward my son.
07:43I held him tight and stepped back.
07:45He is my son.
07:47Stay back.
07:48We're leaving.
07:48Serena blocked the exit.
07:50Your son?
07:51So what, Xavier is your husband?
07:53Serena looks Mia up and down with contempt.
07:55Look at yourself.
07:56If you're going to lie, at least make it believable.
07:59Want me to call the police right now?
08:01Yes.
08:03Xavier is my husband.
08:05Go ahead and call them.
08:06Let's see who they take in.
08:07People around them exchange mocking looks.
08:10Your father is the richest man in the country and your husband is Xavier?
08:13Mia, you need help.
08:16I'm calling.
08:17Let's see what you say after that.
08:19Before she could dial, Holden grabbed the phone from her hand.
08:22Forget it, Mia.
08:23We had something once.
08:25I don't want to take it too far.
08:26Before this gets worse, just go.
08:28I'll give you money.
08:29Name a number.
08:30Holden still thought I was after his money.
08:32Back in college, my dad had already been the richest man in the country.
08:36I hid my identity because I wanted a normal campus life.
08:40After I found out Holden had also been hiding his background, I stopped thinking about him entirely.
08:45His family's money was nothing compared to mine.
08:48Serena could not stand that Holden was protecting me.
08:50Right.
08:51Give her some money, Holden.
08:52That's all she ever wanted.
08:53She left you for cash and ran off with some foreigner.
08:56Now she got dumped and came back with nothing.
08:59You're the only one still soft on her.
09:01Holden's hand stiffens around the phone.
09:03Everyone understood what Serena meant.
09:05Anyone who gave me money was a fool getting used.
09:07I had not expected Serena to build that kind of story while I was abroad.
09:11I looked at Serena and spoke in front of everyone.
09:13Serena, you lived with a foreigner and took his money while keeping Holden on the hook.
09:17Did you really think no one knew?
09:19Serena's face changes.
09:21You're good at handling men.
09:22You had Holden fooled for years.
09:24Serena denied it immediately.
09:26That's a lie.
09:27That's the only ever wanted Halton.
09:29Don't try to ruin what we have.
09:30He saw through you a long time ago.
09:32Mia, stop.
09:33Serena's nothing like you.
09:35She loves me for who I am.
09:37She agreed to take on an $8 million loan for me without even knowing who I really was.
09:42Holden, she knew exactly who you were before she ever approached you.
09:45Look up her ex-boyfriends.
09:47Every single one was rich.
09:48Heirs, trust fund sons, wealthy foreigners.
09:51You really thought you were special enough for her to make an exception?
09:54That's embarrassing.
09:55Holden's face loses color.
09:57He turns to Serena.
09:58Is it true?
09:59Did you know who I was?
10:01Holden, she's making things up.
10:03Don't you trust me?
10:05The moment I met you, I knew you were the one.
10:07Everything I did, I did it for you.
10:09He texted his assistant to investigate Serena's college history.
10:12Serena lunged at me and slapped me hard.
10:14Before I could steady myself, Serena grabbed my son out of my arms.
10:20I forced myself to stay calm and spoke to him across the room.
10:24Baby, it's okay.
10:25Daddy and Grandpa are almost here.
10:27When they arrive, they'll take care of the bad guys.
10:29The toddler's crying slows, but his shoulders are still shaking.
10:32Seeing how quickly he listened to me, Serena slapped me five more times.
10:35Then she told the staff to hit me too, but Holden stepped in front of him.
10:38That's enough.
10:39We still have actual business here today.
10:41Mia, be smart.
10:42Leave now while I'm still willing to let you go.
10:44Serena, give him back.
10:45If anything happens to him, I will not let this go.
10:49You should be worried about yourself.
10:51I'm calling the police.
10:52Mia, you'll be rotting in a cell for this.
10:57A child is being kidnapped.
11:01I just saved Xavier's child.
11:03He'll want to thank me personally.
11:05Whoever helps me deal with this woman, I'll introduce you to him mentally.
11:09The people in the room were all ranked below Holden's family.
11:12Serena's offer tempted them.
11:13So fists and kicks landed one after another.
11:16I fought back as much as I could, but there were too many of them.
11:20Carter, don't stop!
11:22Stop!
11:23Everyone stops!
11:24Do you know who she is?
