00:00:04I asked my daughter to use the restroom in the penthouse office suite in New York's financial district that I
00:00:09lent to the company for office use.
00:00:11The new secretary Betty called an emergency meeting to report me to my secretly married husband for misusing company property.
00:00:17Is everyone seeing this clearly?
00:00:19This is our beloved Vice President, Jane Sterling, bringing a child to use the restroom in the president's office of
00:00:25the penthouse office suite,
00:00:26located in the core of Midtown Manhattan, which is used by the company to entertain important clients.
00:00:32Betty is a new secretary this year, so it's understandable if she doesn't know the full situation.
00:00:37But William, as my secretly married husband, is it really necessary to call an emergency meeting over this?
00:00:43Honey, the place your parents left you is amazing.
00:00:47If we could use it to host company clients, we'd definitely land a lot of big deals.
00:00:52You know, because your parents looked down on me, our relationship still isn't public.
00:00:56Whether I can use that office suite, I think the president is very clear.
00:01:01Jane, if you are the vice president, it doesn't mean you can mislose company property, especially when it's the president's
00:01:06office.
00:01:07Today it's taking your daughter to the restroom. Tomorrow will you move in to live?
00:01:11Where do you place the company's rules and regulations?
00:01:14One wants to gain the president's favor by reporting me. The other wants to seize my property using regulations.
00:01:21Very well. I'll make sure you both know the consequences of messing with the wrong current.
00:01:27Jane, the evidence is right in front of you. What else do you have to explain?
00:01:33Jane, we all respect you, but rules are rules, especially for such an expensive president's office.
00:01:38Well, this really doesn't look good. If it gets out, what will our clients think of our company?
00:01:43Yes, Jane. What you did this time is really too much.
00:01:46Last week, Tom's Onion the company's penthouse for a study is sating, and I signed the approval.
00:01:50Last month, Mrs. Mike brought people to the penthouse for an auction, and I also handled the process.
00:01:55Talking about that is useless. Where's the evidence? Without evidence, it's just slander.
00:02:01We're talking about you right now. Don't bring others into this.
00:02:04The access card and all the keys to the penthouse have always been in your custody. Now please hand them
00:02:08over.
00:02:09They will be managed uniformly by the company.
00:02:11Jane, give it to me. I'll keep it safe, and I guarantee there won't be any more private use situations.
00:02:18Vice President, give it to me! President, look at her!
00:02:25Jane Sterling, I order you to stop.
00:02:29What do you think you're doing?
00:02:35Jane Sterling, do you have any idea what you're doing?
00:02:38I hope Betty hasn't forgotten that I'm still the vice president of this company.
00:02:42You've already violated company regulations. If you don't hand over the access card, I'll immediately suspend all your duties.
00:02:52No need for you to petition.
00:02:55Here you go.
00:02:56William, you'd better give me an explanation.
00:03:00President, it was clearly that bitch who made the mistake. How dare she be so aggressive?
00:03:04Betty has done a great service by reporting this, protecting the company's interests. She should be rewarded. As for this
00:03:10access card, Betty will be in full charge. Meeting adjourned.
00:03:15William.
00:03:18Tonight, we'll go to that penthouse office and have a proper celebration for you.
00:03:24Sounds great. I absolutely love it there. The view is amazing.
00:03:27You know perfectly well that the office floor is mine. I bought that place for $150 million. Why couldn't I
00:03:33take our daughter to use the restroom? Why aren't you replying to my messages?
00:03:36I need to go back to the office to get some documents. I hope you're there so we can have
00:03:40a proper talk.
00:03:42Shit. Not a single word in reply. Fine.
00:03:49Fuck those two bastards.
00:04:11You little vixen. Tempting me like that.
00:04:15Mr. President, don't be in such a hurry.
00:04:24Who is it?
00:04:25Be good. Stay quiet.
00:04:26Hello?
00:04:27Where are you, William?
00:04:29I'm in a meeting.
00:04:30Meeting with a client. Won't be back tonight.
00:04:33Which client?
00:04:34You wouldn't know them anyway. Gotta go.
00:04:37One climbs the ladder by sleeping around. The other got rich by throwing himself at women. What a perfect pair
00:04:42of trash.
00:04:49Just like a horny dog in heat. Disgusting.
00:04:52William, you will regret this. I can lift you up high and of course, I can bring you crashing down.
00:04:59I need your help. I want to sue William. I'll do whatever it takes to make him go bankrupt.
00:05:10I need the legal documents to bar him from entering my property as quickly as possible.
00:05:15The trespassing complaint can be filed immediately. The key is evidence.
00:05:20Is surveillance footage enough?
00:05:22It's sufficient. But we need to establish that he forcibly entered after you had explicitly revoked his access.
00:05:28This is the receipt for tonight's property management notice.
00:05:31I have formally notified the property management in writing, terminating all company usage rights.
00:05:39Good.
00:05:40The utilities and property fees?
00:05:43Already cut off.
00:05:45This will infuriate him.
00:05:46He dares to sleep with another woman in my territory.
00:05:50What he owes me?
00:05:51I'll make him repay with interest.
00:05:53On his knees.
00:05:54Jane is finally gone.
00:05:55From now on, we can use this penthouse office suite as we please.
00:05:59Just an access card.
00:06:01What can she possibly do?
00:06:07What's going on? Open the door! Open it!
00:06:10William, are we... are we stuck?
00:06:12Help someone! Help us!
00:06:14Is anyone there? Can you hear me? Let us out!
00:06:19Your phone? Do you have a signal on your phone?
00:06:23Damn it, no signal.
00:06:25Someone won! Is there anyone fucking there?
00:06:33The property management payment records have been pulled.
00:06:36Every single payment for the past three years has been from your personal account.
00:06:41Mm-hmm.
00:06:43They're getting anxious.
00:06:49Good. How long has the elevator been out?
00:06:51As you requested, the security system shows it's been out of service for five hours and thirteen minutes.
00:07:00Jane! Pick up the phone!
00:07:02William, I'm having trouble breathing.
00:07:05Jane! Where are you? Notify the property management to fix the elevator immediately!
00:07:11William, the day-to-day management of the penthouse office suite, including liaisoning with property management, was fully transferred last
00:07:17week.
00:07:17It's no longer under my pervias.
00:07:20Shit!
00:07:22Hello? Property management? We're the tenants on the top floor. There's an elevator malfunction here.
00:07:27Sorry, sir. Our system shows that the property fees under your account are two months overdue.
00:07:32According to regulations, we suspend all services during periods of arrance, including emergency repairs.
00:07:37What? How much? I'll pay it right now!
00:07:40Including late payment fees, the total is 427,300 US dollars.
00:07:45Repairs will be scheduled within two hours after full payment is received.
00:07:50The money's transferred. Send someone now!
00:07:55The previous utilities, property fees, were all paid from her personal account?
00:07:59It seems... they always were.
00:08:02Fine. Just fine!
00:08:04I, William, can manage perfectly well without her!
00:08:07Once we get out of here, I'm going to settle this score with her properly!
00:08:13Vice President, see these payment slips?
00:08:16From now on, the penthouse bangles has nothing to do with you.
00:08:19Want to use? Y'all first get her approval!
00:08:23Fine.
00:08:27Well?
00:08:27Betty handled the fees. She's more efficient than you.
00:08:30So?
00:08:31Honey, the company's in a growth phase. What we need now are people who can charge ahead, not rely on
00:08:35our relationship.
00:08:36I was even giving you the president position. Some things you just have to let go.
00:08:39I know. Let go of power, let go of clients, let go of my position.
00:08:43Don't be like this. I'm doing this for your own good, and for the good of the company.
00:08:47A woman like you doesn't need to fight so hard out there.
00:08:50Alright. William, I'd like to take some time off.
00:08:53Time off?
00:08:54Yeah, to spend time with Bailey. We've both been so busy with the company.
00:08:57Our daughter keeps saying she wants mom and dad to take her to the amusement park.
00:09:00Since you don't have time, I'll go.
00:09:01It's about time. Go home, think things over, adjust your strontate.
00:09:06The company? Let Betty handle a bit more for now.
00:09:09By the way, that mendistant client, Roger, the five I bet all under, and I let Betty make the first
00:09:13contact. Use rest.
00:09:14Fine.
00:09:16Jane, I'm rinned enough to get your money.
00:09:19But soon, you'll see Max arrogant yours face and crushed under my feel.
00:09:28Ross, I'm not just suing them for illegal occupation. I'm going to leave them with nothing.
00:09:32Those cars I anonymously lended to him at a low price three years ago, they're getting a new buyer now.
00:09:38Notice all leasing companies. Effective immediately, terminate all vehicle lease agreements under the Sterling Group's name.
00:09:43Change the leaner to me personally.
00:09:45Understood. Seven vehicles, including the two Maybacks for client reception.
00:09:49The contract stipulates has the right to unlaterally reclaim usage rights at any time, without compensation.
00:09:54Back then, he had just set up company's framework, and the accounts can't even afford a tire.
00:10:02Mrs. Jane, this price, it's practically giving it away, are you sure?
00:10:06He needs this parking lot, and he also needs this address to register the company. Don't let him know it's
00:10:11from me.
00:10:11The lease for that parking lot land is about to expire, right?
00:10:14Next month. According to the contract, you have the right to not renew, or to re-sign at the market
00:10:19rate.
00:10:20No renewal. Notify him within 30 days, clear the site, and return the usage rights.
00:10:25He might get desperate and lash out.
00:10:27That's exactly what I'm waiting for. The higher he jumps, the harder he'll fall.
00:10:30Why should I give away what's mine?
00:10:34Soon, none of this will be yours, William.
00:10:42Mommy!
00:10:46What's made my baby so happy today?
00:10:48Mm-hmm. Because, because the bad daddy hasn't come for a long time.
00:10:53Bad daddy?
00:10:54I don't like William.
00:10:56Every time he comes, my teddy bear cookies go missing, and he always goes into your room.
00:11:03He goes into my room?
00:11:05Yes. Once I saw him take a shiny necks from your box and put it in his own pocket.
00:11:10I asked him about it, and he yelled at me.
00:11:13Anything else?
00:11:14He talks to me really loudly, and when you're not home, he brings other women here.
00:11:18Mommy, can we just not see him anymore?
00:11:21Okay. Mommy promises you he will never set foot in our home again.
00:11:27It's me, the penthouse in Midtown, Manhattan.
00:11:31In three days, activate the highest level security protocol.
00:11:34No one, with any level of access, is to enter or exit without my personal biometric confirmation.
00:11:39Yes, that includes current tenants.
00:11:41Activation time, 9am sharp, three days from now.
00:11:45Time to clear the stage.
00:11:55William, I'm here to discuss our divorce.
00:12:00Jane, what nonsense are you talking? We're waiting for an important client right now.
00:12:05We've been suitably married for three years. I helped you bead the company, helped you reach the position of president.
00:12:11Now it's time to settle accounts.
00:12:13Don't make a scene here. Let's talk privately.
00:12:17William, is what she said true? You've been lying to me all along? You're actually married?
00:12:22Betty, let me explain.
00:12:25So what if we're married? The company doesn't deal with personal affairs.
00:12:29Do you think you can use this relationship to threaten me?
00:12:32So?
00:12:32You're nothing but a waste who climbed the ladder using me! You're fired! Get out! Now! Immediately!
00:12:40That slap settles our three years of feelings.
00:12:49Mr. Roger, you've arrived. We'll be right-
00:12:52Why isn't your elevator opening for me? Do you not want to cooperate?
00:12:56What elevator? We're all waiting for you at the penthouse.
00:13:01The highest level security system has been activated and all exits are sealed off.
00:13:10William, I've been waiting in the lobby for 20 minutes. Why can't I even get on a direct elevator?
00:13:15Can't your company manage the most basic access control?
00:13:17It's a temporary system upgrade. I'll handle it right away.
00:13:20I don't care about the reason. You can't even control a door. How can I trust you to manage a
00:13:24500 million order?
00:13:28Hurry! To the elevator!
00:13:38Try my card.
00:13:40Property management! Call the property control room!
00:13:45The control room says the system has been remotely locked with the highest authority. They can't unlock it.
00:13:52Take the stairs. Bring the contract. Follow me down to catch Roger.
00:13:59This... This is the 60th floor!
00:14:02If you don't want to lose this client, run!
00:14:0860 floors. Run slowly, will you?
00:14:13I can't... I really can't run anymore.
00:14:16Useless! If Roger leaves, we're all finished!
00:14:24Mr. Roger, sorry to keep you waiting.
00:14:27Jane.
00:14:36It's so good to see you. The elevator system in this building is truly impressive. I pressed for the penthouse,
00:14:42but it didn't work at all. I'm relieved to see you. Where should we go to sign the contract?
00:14:46Regarding our cooperation, there are some new developments I need to inform you about.
00:14:51Please wait!
00:14:52It's a misunderstanding! The elevator malfunctioned!
00:14:55Let me formally introduce myself. I am no longer an employee of the Sterling Group. Ten minutes ago, I was
00:15:01terminated by Mr. Williams.
00:15:07You fired Jane?
00:15:09Mr. Roger, this is because Jane seriously violated company regulations. She not only brought a three-year-old child to
00:15:15the president's office to use the restroom, but also physically assaulted someone.
00:15:19So?
00:15:21So?
00:15:22So President William had no choice but to dismiss her, to set an example.
00:15:26I don't understand.
00:15:28Roger, we can explain this matter.
00:15:31What I don't understand is, why can't Jane bring her own daughter to the penthouse office suite that she paid
00:15:37for herself to use her own restroom?
00:15:40What do you mean she paid for it?
00:15:45William, what did Mr. Roger just say? That the penthouse was bought by Jane?
00:15:50It seems your company's management doesn't even know whose turf they're sitting on.
00:15:55Jane, wherever you sign this contract, that's where I'll cooperate.
00:15:58What is he talking about? How could the penthouse possibly be hers?
00:16:04Betty, we'll talk about these things later. First, we need to find a way to keep Roger here or we're
00:16:08all finished.
00:16:08I saw it with my own eyes. The way you treated Ms. Sterling has fundamentally shoken my confidence in your
00:16:14company's credibility.
00:16:16The Alfasi Group is terminating all cooperation intentions with Sterling Company.
00:16:20Mr. Roger, please wait. I can do as well as Jane. No, I can do even better than her.
00:16:25I've been the one following up and preparing for this project all along.
00:16:28You can't dismiss us just because, just because of some personal relationship with Jane.
00:16:33Betty, not everyone is like me.
00:16:37This, this is the reason you've been pushing so hard these past few days?
00:16:40Breaking all rules to promote Betty from a secretary to a project manager?
00:16:44Jane, how dare you?
00:16:47Now the reason is clear.
00:16:48Our collaboration with your company is officially cancelled.
00:16:51Our legal department will contact you for follow up.
00:16:53Mrs. Sterling, let's talk somewhere else.
00:16:56No, wait!
00:17:01Roger, wait!
00:17:02Roger, wait!
00:17:02Jane, for the sake of our past, help me.
00:17:05We, we did have feelings for each other.
00:17:10When you were sleeping with Betty in my office, why didn't you remember we had feelings?
00:17:14Roger, let's go.
00:17:15Jane, if you pushed this too far today, don't blame me for not holding back in the future.
00:17:19I, William, haven't been a sisal in this circle.
00:17:24William, there's trouble in the parking lot.
00:17:27Our company cars, the leasing company is throwing them away.
00:17:30What?
00:17:31They said the contract was terminated unilaterally.
00:17:34All the cars are being repossessed.
00:17:36What?
00:17:38Jane?
00:17:39Is this your doing again?
00:17:50Put that car down!
00:17:52Who gave you permission to tow my company's vehicles?
00:17:58Your company's lease agreement was unilaterally bought out and terminated ten minutes ago.
00:18:02We're just here to repossess the vehicles.
00:18:04I'm the company president!
00:18:06I didn't sign off on this, and I dare anyone to try anything today!
00:18:09We need these cars tomorrow to pick up the board members.
00:18:13Could you possibly postpone the repossession until the day after?
00:18:17That lady over there paid the full penalty?
00:18:19She's now in charge of these vehicles.
00:18:24Jane? How could it be you?
00:18:26Are you really trying to drive me into the ground?
00:18:28You used my house and my cars to carry on with your mistress.
00:18:32I'm just taking back what's mine.
00:18:35Jane, you're pushing your luck, aren't you?
00:18:45Mr. Roger, this is private matter between us. It's none of your business.
00:18:50A private matter?
00:18:51Security cameras don't know the difference.
00:18:58William, think about the price you'll pay before you throw that punch.
00:19:02You land that hit, and I guarantee you won't leave this garage today.
00:19:06You'll go straight to a jail cell.
00:19:09Jane! You think taking my car will be the end of me? Dream on!
00:19:13I don't care if you live or die. I just don't want to get my hands dirty.
00:19:17Fine! You're ruthless!
00:19:19Betty, contact the rental company's owner, now!
00:19:24Tell him I'll pay triple the cancellation fees, whatever it is! Get that car down here, immediately!
00:19:30Okay, I'll call the owner's private line right now.
00:19:40Triple the penalty! I'll pay whatever it takes to get every single car back today!
00:19:44It's ringing!
00:19:53What the hell are you playing at?
00:19:57President Thorne, this is the mysterious owner of that car rental company.
00:20:01How much of a penalty are you willing to pay?
00:20:05Impossible! How could the manor's direct line be ringing to you?
00:20:08Because I funded that car rental company three years ago. The manager is just an employee on my payroll.
00:20:20Boss, the repossession procedures are all complete.
00:20:23Repossession procedures? What does that mean?
00:20:27William, for the past three years, the Maybachs, Rolls-Royce, and Mercedes you've been driving were all subsidized by Jane.
00:20:33Read it to him.
00:20:34The market monthly rent for Sterling Group's seven business vehicles is $30,000.
00:20:39Ms. Jane personally covered the $25,000 difference every month.
00:20:43Over three years, that's $900,000 she subsidized for your car rentals.
00:20:50Jane, you've been hiding this from me for three whole years?
00:20:54Did you really think your pathetic company could afford to rent Maybachs?
00:20:57Jane! For the sake of our past, don't tow all the cars away!
00:21:02The client is arriving any minute! Leave me two Maybachs to save face!
00:21:08Save face? No way.
00:21:11And that's not all. Soon, you won't even have a place to stand.
00:21:15What do you mean?
00:21:24Take a good look at this land lease contract. This lot will be reclaimed in half an hour. You won't
00:21:29even have a place for your clients to park.
00:21:31This can't be. This is supposed to be the building's designated parking lot. How can it be yours?
00:21:37I leased it in my personal name three years ago. Now I'm unilaterally recoking all parking rights.
00:21:44Notify security. Seal the gates immediately. Clear the entire area.
00:21:49Yes, President. It's over. It's all over. I have nothing left.
00:21:54All tow trucks. Start up. Clear the entire lot.
00:21:59No, this can't be happening. I can't be finished.
00:22:03Please, you can't do this! Leave me at least two cars!
00:22:06Jane! Jane, you can't do this! This is the Sterling Group parking lot!
00:22:14Clear out all unauthorized personnel.
00:22:25Jane, open the gate! I can't lose these two clients! My company will be completely ruined!
00:22:31Then you can receive your distinguished guests, right here on the street.
00:22:36Oh no! The VIPs are here!
00:22:46Are you deaf up there? Raise the barrier and let us through now!
00:22:51Private property. Completely sealed off.
00:22:54Don't! There's a VIP in the car. Just let us in first.
00:22:58The CEO's orders. All unauthorized personnel are to leave immediately.
00:23:02Outsiders, go around. There's a vacant lot for parking at the abandoned construction site three blocks down.
00:23:14William! I canceled three meetings for this signing, and this is what you show me?
00:23:18Sir, please, let me explain. There's an internal company asset transfer in progress.
00:23:22Transfer? The president of the Sterling Group can't even get into his own parking lot?
00:23:28It's not that at all. I'll send someone to rent the premium spots across the street immediately. Please bear with
00:23:33me.
00:23:34An idiot who can't even secure his own front door. Your competence is seriously in question. I think we're done
00:23:40here.
00:23:41Sir, give me five more minutes. Just five minutes!
00:23:46Not a chance. Get ready to watch that deal go down the drain.
00:23:55Sir, please let me explain. It's just a minor handover glitch. Give me one more chance.
00:24:01A glitch? If your group can make a mistake this huge, I don't think you should be in business at
00:24:06all.
00:24:07Five minutes. I'll have someone rent the VIP parking spot across the street at a premium price right now.
00:24:15William, I heard you fired Jane Sterling. We're forced to relocate the company and now this mess.
00:24:21Your credibility has been destroyed by your own actions.
00:24:24Our cooperation ends here. Drive!
00:24:32The deal is over. My business is finished. No. I have to keep tomorrow's VIP.
00:24:42Where's the administrative manager? Get your ass in here!
00:24:48You wanted to see me, President? Go rent that temporary parking lot in the building next door for me.
00:24:53Right now.
00:24:54But, President, the owner heard we're desperate and jacked up the price.
00:24:59I don't care how much! Even if it's ten times higher, you get it done!
00:25:05They're demanding the full year's rent paid up front. The price has been raised forty-fold.
00:25:13Process the payment through the company account immediately.
00:25:17President! You can't sign that! Our cash flow has hit rock bottom!
00:25:26What the hell are you talking about? What about last quarter's receivables?
00:25:31Half an hour ago, the court's enforcement order was sent directly to our primary account.
00:25:36What enforcement order?
00:25:38Jane sued you for illegal trespass and misappropriation of private property.
00:25:43The three-year rental difference for those seven Maybacks.
00:25:46The property fees and the utilities for the penthouse office.
00:25:49A total of $4.7 million has been frozen and detected in full by the bank.
00:25:57Not only that, the bank's risk control department saw our litigation risk.
00:26:01They just called, demanding we repay the $50 million bridge loan in advance by 3 p.m. tomorrow, or else.
00:26:08Or else what?
00:26:10Or else they'll immediately initiate bankruptcy proceedings and seize all the office assets in this building.
00:26:20Just got word from finance.
00:26:22The court forcibly seized over $4 million from the company account.
00:26:26There's no way we can pay back the $50 million bridge loan to the bank tomorrow.
00:26:29Then will we even get our salaries next month?
00:26:31Better start updating your resume.
00:26:32The biggest mistake the CEO made was forcing out the vice president.
00:26:36This company is doomed.
00:26:38Working for a boss with no brains is the worst damn luck.
00:26:41Yes. The salary requirement is the number I just gave you.
00:26:45As long as your headhunting firm can get me and you in the new company across the street as fast
00:26:49as possible,
00:26:50I can lower Nerms even further.
00:26:52Done?
00:26:52I told you this sinking ship was going down.
00:26:55That idiot William throwing away a solid $500 million deal just to mess with Jane.
00:27:00William's head is completely filled with that vixen Betty.
00:27:03And now look, the company's cash flow is cut off.
00:27:05When the bank comes to seal the doors tomorrow, all our shares will be worth this paper.
00:27:10Let that useless William stay here and clean up his own mess.
00:27:14Who knows, when push comes to shove, he might even throw his little mistress under the bus to save himself.
00:27:22Impossible. Even if the company goes bankrupt, William would never betray me.
00:27:27He said he would love me forever.
00:27:35Mr. Roger, I've purchased this entire floor outright.
00:27:39To finalize the property transfer in a single day, you've truly impressed me.
00:27:44Because I never waste time on incompetent people.
00:27:53From here, William's company looks like a sinking pile of garbage.
00:27:58The court has already frozen all of his company's liquid assets.
00:28:01Once the bridge loan defaults, that building will be completely seized.
00:28:05Setting up your new headquarters right across from your enemy?
00:28:08That's adding insult to injury.
00:28:10I just want him to watch with his own eyes as I take back everything that belongs to me.
00:28:16Mr. Roger, please have a seat.
00:28:24For this $500 million worth of trust, I will repay you with absolute control of the entire market.
00:28:36In my life, I only do business with people who have integrity and capability.
00:28:41Jane, don't disappoint me.
00:28:43I'll make sure that Waste of Space across the street sees what real performance looks like.
00:28:55Mr. Roger, we've heard you abandon Sterling Group for a startup.
00:28:59What's the reasoning behind this move?
00:29:01I only do business with people who have integrity.
00:29:06William is morally corrupt and engages in fraud.
00:29:10Sterling Group is not worthy of my partnership.
00:29:12The era of Sterling Group is coming to an end.
00:29:14It's only right that I take over this $500 million deal.
00:29:18William is morally corrupt.
00:29:24Roger, what did Jane offer you to slander me like this?
00:29:28You bitch!
00:29:29How dare you climb over my back to get ahead?
00:29:32I will destroy you both!
00:29:37I heard Jane started a new company and sifled off a huge chunk of investment.
00:29:42I wonder if it's true.
00:29:48What was that? Is William really that furious? Could it be true?
00:29:57William, why are you so angry?
00:29:59Shut up! Who told you to come in?
00:30:03The whole office is watching this spectacle. What are you trying to do?
00:30:07A spectacle? It's all because of you, you idiot!
00:30:11What's the point of yelling at me now? The $500 million deal is already gone!
00:30:17Go! Contact Roger's assistant right now! Tell them we'll even lower the price!
00:30:22I have to get back what's mine!
00:30:24We won't even answer our calls!
00:30:26Then keep calling! If we don't salvage this deal today, you're out of this company!
00:30:35Hello? Is this Mr. Roger's assistant?
00:30:38This is Betty from the Sterling Group.
00:30:39We're willing to offer an additional 10% discount on the $500 million deal.
00:30:44Sterling Group? Mr. Roger asked me to inform you that he only works with capable and trustworthy individuals like Miss
00:30:51Jane.
00:30:51A company that can't even secure its own front door, that tries to seize private property.
00:30:56A bunch of useless trash not worth our time.
00:30:59Don't harass us again, or we'll see you in court.
00:31:03So this is the big deal you promised we'd land after pushing Jane out?!
00:31:09William! Listen to me! It's all that bitch Jane's trap!
00:31:12If we can just get another chance to meet Mr. Roger, we can fix this!
00:31:16Fix this, my ass!
00:31:17You just blew the entire half-billion-baller deal, you idiot!
00:31:24If it weren't for you constantly pushing me to kick Jane out and grab that penthouse office, my cash flow
00:31:29wouldn't be broken!
00:31:30You're nothing less screw-up! Get out!
00:31:48William...
00:31:48Get out!
00:31:58Who the hell gave you the nerve to pack up? Get your ass back to your desk!
00:32:03The company can't even afford next month's utilities? And you're still putting on your CEO act?
00:32:09You signed a non-compete! If you dare leave now, I'll sue you for everything you've got!
00:32:14Jane has already filed for an enforcement order with the court. All your accounts were frozen half an hour ago.
00:32:21What? That's impossible!
00:32:29I said you're not leaving! Sterling Group is not bankrupt yet!
00:32:33You'd better start worrying about how to deal with the court officers downstairs.
00:32:46Mr. William, please cooperate with the asset seizure.
00:32:52Mr. William, please cooperate with the asset seizure.
00:32:58Here's my resignation letter.
00:33:00The enforcement officers just finished sealing up the finance department, and you're leaving now?
00:33:07If you dare leave, I'll withhold all your year-end bonuses, and you won't get a penny in compensation!
00:33:13The company accounts are frozen by the court.
00:33:16What are you going to pay bonuses with?
00:33:18Besides, the headhunter has already deposited my severance into the company account.
00:33:24Jane has a position for me at her new company.
00:33:26Goodbye, you idiot CEO!
00:33:37Where is everyone? Where the hell have they all gone?!
00:33:43Betty, notify everyone to get to the conference room for an all-hands meeting immediately!
00:33:48The company is operating normally. Anyone who dares to run, I'll make them pay!
00:34:00Is he gone?
00:34:03Everyone, quiet down. I know there are some rumors going around the company today, but please believe me.
00:34:09The Sterling Group is operating completely normally.
00:34:11But both the CFO and the tech director resigned, and there are even court officers downstairs.
00:34:17That's just normal departmental optimization.
00:34:20As for the court, that's pure, balicious slander from competitors.
00:34:24I promise you, the company's cash flow is very healthy.
00:34:28As long as everyone stays, double the year-endal bonus.
00:34:38Mr. William, this is the credit department of State Bank.
00:34:41Dammit, shut up.
00:34:43The $50 million bridge loan under your name is severely over-tuned.
00:34:47If the funds are not received by 3 p.m. today, we will immediately file for bankruptcy and forced liquidation
00:34:53of the Sterling Group with the court.
00:34:56Bankruptcy liquidation? The company really has no money.
00:34:59No, that's not true. Everyone, let me explain.
00:35:03Do not evade your debt. Court enforcement officers are already on standby in the building.
00:35:12If the repayment is not made by 3 p.m., we will immediately file for bankruptcy liquidation and seize the
00:35:19company's assets.
00:35:20Stop it! Just stop!
00:35:23Bankruptcy liquidation? Is the company's account really empty?
00:35:27The CFO and the tech lead have both run off.
00:35:30Double bonuses, my ass. William's been playing us for fools.
00:35:33Quiet! Everyone, that was a scam call! Jane fabricated it to ruin me!
00:35:39You can fake the official number of State Bank?
00:35:42Sterling Group's cash flow is perfectly healthy. Anyone who spreads rumors will be fired on the spot.
00:35:48Don't bother firing me. I'm out of here. Everyone, get out now before the court seizes our desks.
00:35:54Get back here, you ungrateful bastards!
00:35:57Oh my God. Look at the market! This company is done for!
00:36:02I'm out of here.
00:36:06I'm out of here.
00:36:12I'm out of here.
00:36:12Hurry! Get out! If we don't leave now, we're all finished!
00:36:16President, what's going on?
00:36:22Don't be afraid, William. Even if we go bankrupt, I'll always stay by your side.
00:36:29$200 million! Because you had to provoke Jane, I've lost everything!
00:36:34How is this my fault? It's clearly that bitch who set us up!
00:36:38Shut up! You useless piece of trash who can't do anything right!
00:36:42If it weren't for your constant bad ideas, would I be in this mess? Get the hell out of here!
00:36:48You've changed, William. Now you're just a useless screaming failure.
00:36:53You bastard! You deserve to be trampled by Jane!
00:37:02Here's the complete breakdown of the property fees, utilities for the penthouse office the Sterling Group has occupied for the
00:37:08past three years, plus the rental price difference for the vehicles and the land parcel.
00:37:12What's the final figure from the court's calculation?
00:37:16With principle and interest, the total claim amounts to $9.7 million.
00:37:21William has always thought the Sterling Group was his personal empire. Today, I'll show him exactly whose blood and sweat
00:37:28built that empire.
00:37:29Once the lawsuit is filed, the court will immediately initiate enforcement procedures, directly freezing all his available assets.
00:37:38File it now. I want him to watch his last card get torn to shreds right when he's at his
00:37:43most desperate.
00:37:44Understood. The enforcement officers are already on standby.
00:37:53Target. Sterling Group Headquarters building. Move out immediately.
00:38:12Mr. Lee, please have some tea. Once the funds are in place, our group will bounce back immediately.
00:38:18Everyone's saying your cash flow has dried up. Investing my money here is a huge risk. If your terms weren't
00:38:24so tempting, I wouldn't even consider it.
00:38:27That's absolutely a rumor. The Sterling Group has a solid foundation. This little hiccup will be over soon.
00:38:33Just sign this, and I'll give you an extra 3% on the profits.
00:38:37Let me review the terms again.
00:38:42Who let you in here? Get out!
00:38:45William, you have been sued by Jane for illegal trespass and misappropriation of private property with a claim of $9
00:38:52.7 million.
00:38:54The court has frozen all your assets. Your assets are frozen. And you still tried to get me to invest?
00:39:00You're nothing but a fraud!
00:39:01Sir, please let me explain. It's all a mivers' understanding.
00:39:06You're finished! The deal is off!
00:39:19Pick up, Jane. You're my only hope now.
00:39:24It's Director A from Sterling Group. Looks like William's little show with the subpoena in the conference room worked. They're
00:39:29all scrambling for a lifeboard now.
00:39:30Put it on speaker.
00:39:32Jane, William has completely lost it. He can't even repay the $50 million bridge loan. I have the original drafts
00:39:39of his shady dealings. I want to defect to you with my shares.
00:39:42Tell him I don't take Sterling Group's trash.
00:39:45Sir, our CEO's point is that your offer isn't enough. If you want an alliance, you must be the first
00:39:50to propose William's removal at this afternoon's board meeting.
00:39:52But William still has the ledger from my kickback days. If I go first, he'll destroy me.
00:39:57Then you can stay at Sterling Group and go down with William.
00:40:01Keep a close eye on their board meeting this afternoon. I want to watch William and his company go down
00:40:06together.
00:40:07You threaten me first, William. Don't blame me now for destroying you.
00:40:18You ungrateful backstabbing snakes. When it's time for dividends, you all scramble like starving dogs.
00:40:24Now that the company's in trouble, someone's actually selling secrets to cozy up to that bitch, Jane.
00:40:30You really think I don't know what you've been doing behind my back? Let me make one thing clear. The
00:40:35Sterling Group is not finished yet.
00:40:37William, that's a bit harsh, don't you think? We all have families to feed. We have to think about the
00:40:43company's survival. And our own, right?
00:40:46Survival? Looks to me like you want to step over my corpse to go beg that whore for scraps.
00:40:52You think I won't throw you out on the street to beg for your next meal right now? Let him
00:40:56go.
00:40:57If you hadn't provoked Jane in the first place, the company would never have come to this. You're the one
00:41:02who ruined everything.
00:41:07So you finally show your true colors, huh? You think I won't hand over the evidence of your kickbacks right
00:41:13this second?
00:41:14You should worry about yourself first. This is a joint motion for removal signed by a majority of the shareholders.
00:41:21As of this second, you are no longer the president of the Sterling Group. Get out of here now.
00:41:27I am the only president of this group. No one is going to force me out of this position.
00:41:37Security! Where the hell is security? Get those bitches out of here right now!
00:41:41Save your breath. The entire security department reported to the company across the street ten minutes ago.
00:41:46You're a commander without an army now.
00:41:50William! I'm pregnant! Two lines! You're going to be a father!
00:41:56Congratulations, Mr. President. No wonder the company's cash flow is broken.
00:42:01You've been busy breeding in the office. Too busy chasing skirts to do any real work. No wonder the company's
00:42:06going down the drain.
00:42:07Shut your damn mouth! Get out!
00:42:09You're the one who needs to get out. The removal process has been initiated. Take your mistress and get lost.
00:42:18Honey, what was that old check saying about removal? Never mind him! We're having a baby!
00:42:24You promised you'd give me shares.
00:42:26Shares? The company is gone! What am I supposed to give you?
00:42:34Take this money and go to the hospital this afternoon to-
00:42:40Get rid of that bastard in your belly!
00:42:45What did you say?
00:42:46This is your flesh and blood!
00:42:53This is your child! How can you be so heartless?
00:42:57You're not even worth being a bargaining chip anymore. Get the hell out of here. Now!
00:43:01You forced my hand!
00:43:03I'm sending our bed photos and the pregnancy test to every media outlet right now. I'm gonna ruin you!
00:43:10If you dare send them, I'll make you disappear from New York for good!
00:43:13Ruin me! Then we'll go down together!
00:43:17Then let's all go to hell!
00:43:19No, don't send it. I'll compensate you. I'll give you whatever you want.
00:43:27Too late.
00:43:34Freeze all of William's personal accounts immediately.
00:43:38President, there's a large sum of money being transferred out of the accounts right now.
00:43:43His scandalous photos are trending everywhere online.
00:43:46He's desperate to use that money to bury the story.
00:43:50Operation complete. All bank cards have been fully frozen.
00:43:54Good. Don't let him touch a single cent.
00:43:57What the hell is the PR department doing?
00:44:00Get those trending posts about me and Betty taken down now!
00:44:04But we're almost out of funds.
00:44:05Figure it out, even if you have no money, or I'll kill you!
00:44:13Sir, a full tank is $80. Please pay first.
00:44:17Hurry up and swipe it. I have to meet a client for a business deal.
00:44:24Oh. Sir, your card is frozen. It won't go through.
00:44:28Bullshit! There's three million in that card! Try this one!
00:44:34How is this possible? Where's my money?
00:44:36All your cards are being declined.
00:44:39Do you actually have money for gas or not?
00:44:45This damn machine is broken. There's no way my personal card doesn't even have $80.
00:44:54Hey man, can you spot me 80 bucks in cash?
00:44:56Dressed in a suit and you don't have $80? Get lost!
00:44:59If you can't afford gas, don't get it!
00:45:06William! We had a deal!
00:45:08I'd clear your name if you paid me!
00:45:10Now you've gone and sold the house? Where am I supposed to live?
00:45:13How could I possibly have sold my house?
00:45:19Use the damn doorbell! You're making a rocket!
00:45:28Ah! What are you doing?
00:45:31Get out within five minutes. This place no longer belongs to me.
00:45:42Betty, what the hell are you doing? What's going on out there? Why is my personal card not working?
00:45:46You're broke. From now on, we're done.
00:45:50All your personal assets have been seized to pay off your debts.
00:45:54This is just... Jane bluffing! We'll sue her! We'll win!
00:45:59I was with you to be a rich wife, not to sleep on the streets with you.
00:46:03What about the baby in your belly?
00:46:05Didn't you tell me to get rid of it a long time ago?
00:46:08This works out perfectly for you!
00:46:23Don't go! You're all I have left now. I'll give you all my company shares. Just give me a little
00:46:28more time.
00:46:29A seized shell company? Keep it for your own coffin.
00:46:48Mr. William, your final repayment deadline has arrived. Get ready for prison.
00:46:54Jane, you're forcing my hand. Even if I have to get on my knees before you, I'll get back what's
00:46:59mine.
00:47:07Jane! Please help me! I'm truly at the end of my rope!
00:47:12All my cards are frozen. I don't even have money for gas.
00:47:16That bitch Betty ran off with the last of my things. I'm about to go to prison!
00:47:20This is what you get for betraying me. The sight of you now is truly disgusting.
00:47:27I know I was wrong! I'll give you everything left in the company!
00:47:31Can't you, for the sake of our past, drop the charges and give me a way out?
00:47:36When you were using my office to pick up women, why didn't you think about today?
00:47:40Jane, I've admitted my mistake. Are you really gonna push me to the brink?
00:47:46Drive.
00:47:51Isn't that the bankrupt scumbag CEO? Kneeling in the middle of the street!
00:47:55Quick! Film this and post it online! Let's make sure he never recovers!
00:48:06William, court time. Let's go.
00:48:10It's all over. I brought this on myself.
00:48:15In addition to confiscation of all the defendant's personal assets,
00:48:19the defendant is also ordered to pay the plaintiff Jane
00:48:2120 million dollars in Confidenciary Dam is effective immediately.
00:48:2520 million? How could I possibly come up with that kind of money?
00:48:30William, this is the price you have to pay.
00:48:3620 million scares you into a puddle like this? I'll cover it.
00:48:41Who are you?
00:48:43William, I saw your story in the news.
00:48:46I don't think a man should pay such a high price for stepping out.
00:48:49I'm here to help you.
00:48:50Ross, I want everything on this idiot within a minute.
00:48:54President, this person just wired the money.
00:48:57The routing paths are all suspicious.
00:48:59Go on.
00:49:00The source of the funds is an overseas shell company suspected of money laundering.
00:49:05It's okay.
00:49:10This guy's here specifically to screw William over.
00:49:13Then let's send them both to prison.
00:49:20Jane, do you really think a 20 million dollar settlement can finish me off?
00:49:24My buddy Marcus million dollars is just the start.
00:49:27Once I consolidate my client resources, I'll be back on top in no time.
00:49:31Is that so? Well then I hope your comeback lasts a little longer this time.
00:49:35Who do you think you're fooling with that act?
00:49:37Everyone in the business knows a woman who got kicked out the door only landed that $500 million deal by
00:49:42cozying up to that Middle Eastern billionaire, Roger.
00:49:45Marcus, you built your empire on the bones of bankrupt companies, preying on desperate partners.
00:49:51Do you really think no one can dig up your blood sucking history?
00:49:54Jane, you're just jealous. You're trying to drive a wedge between William and Marcus because you're scared I'll make a
00:50:01comeback.
00:50:02William, you just hold on tight to Marcus. Let's see who gets devoured first. William or Marcus.
00:50:09Jane, the day will come when you'll be on your knees begging me!
00:50:13That bitch, trying to ruin my plans. Looks like she needs to be taught a lesson.
00:50:19No.
00:50:26President, we've got a problem. All three of our core raw raw material suppliers suddenly defaulted. Production lines are completely
00:50:33shut down. We're out of supplies.
00:50:34Can they afford the penalty fees?
00:50:36Someone paid triple the penalty fees to acquire them outright. They're not shipping a single ton of material now.
00:50:44This has to be Marcus's doing. He's trying to cut off my cash flow to teach me a lesson on
00:50:49William's behalf.
00:50:50It's Marcus. He spent a fortune to forcibly buy out those three suppliers.
00:50:55Jane, take a look at this background report.
00:50:57Marcus not only cooked the books to screw over his partners, but Marcus has actually got blood on his knees.
00:51:02That case became a cold file due to insufficient evidence.
00:51:05Marcus has no bottom line. Marcus is definitely coming for you this time.
00:51:11Marcus is quick. Marcus is already causing a scene downstairs. Let's go take a look.
00:51:16Everyone, look! Jane Sterling falsified financial records and maliciously slandered her ex-husband, William!
00:51:24Jane got her investment by cheating with that Middle Eastern tool cone, Roger!
00:51:36Everyone, look! It's her!
00:51:38She slept with clients to get ahead and forced her own husband into bankruptcy.
00:51:44Step aside. Blocking the entrance is illegal.
00:51:47Did William pay you enough to slander me?
00:51:50Stop pretending! It's all over the internet!
00:51:53You seduce rich men and climb over William's back!
00:51:56You don't even know the name of my company, and you dare to put on this act!
00:52:01You're guilty! You sent your own man to prison! You'll die a horrible death!
00:52:06Jane, let's go back inside first. I'm calling the police.
00:52:10Call the police? A woman like you doesn't deserve that?
00:52:13Jane! Jane!
00:52:19She's bleeding! Let's get out of here!
00:52:21It wasn't me! She ran into it herself!
00:52:25Ross, start a livestream right now, in the company's name. None of you are leaving yet.
00:52:30I won't let a single one of you get away. Not the ones who took money to spread lies, and
00:52:35not the one who attacked me.
00:52:41Ross, start the livestream. Now.
00:52:47It's on. Viewer count is climbing.
00:52:50Stop the act! Everyone knows you got your investments by sleeping with clients!
00:52:55Come on! What's your real relationship with that Middle Eastern tycoon, Roger?
00:52:59Four words. Business partners.
00:53:02Business partners who throw that kind of money at you?
00:53:05Then let me make this crystal clear for you.
00:53:08The one who cheated was William.
00:53:10The one who secretly filmed and spread lies was William.
00:53:13The one who hired people to block my company and throw a brick at my head was also William.
00:53:19Here are the lawsuit documents, enforcement records, and the entire chain of evidence for financial miscorporation.
00:53:25Anyone who speaks up for him will be waiting for a subpoena.
00:53:28You say it, we're supposed to believe it? Where's the proof?
00:53:31Take a good look. The court case number. The freeze on William's accounts. The trace results for the source of
00:53:38the secret video.
00:53:39Should I hand over your livestream account information to the authorities as well?
00:53:44Incidation? Defamation? Assault? That's enough to keep you busy in court for a while.
00:53:49It wasn't me. It was that Marcus guy. He gave me 200 bucks to spread rumors about you.
00:53:54Go back and tell William this.
00:53:57Every time he dares to lift a finger against me, I'll skin him alive.
00:54:10If this doesn't work, Marcus and William won't just let it go.
00:54:13A cornered mad dog will do anything.
00:54:16Hire more bodyguards recently.
00:54:18And watch your own safety.
00:54:23Miss Jane, there's a man in a baseball cap outside Bailey's classroom just staring at the kids.
00:54:28I asked who he was looking for, but he wouldn't speak.
00:54:31Don't let Bailey leave the classroom. Lock the door. I'm on my way.
00:54:34I'm coming with you.
00:54:35No. Call the police immediately, then contact the court. I want a restraining order, and I want it issued today.
00:54:42Also, track William's location. Follow him.
00:54:51I need to know what happened. The child is in the classroom. I didn't let her out. The man was
00:54:56just outside the fence, but he ducked into the alley when he saw me calling the police.
00:55:01Surveillance footage? We got it. His hat was pulled down low. He seems to have come by a few times
00:55:06before.
00:55:07From this angle, he stood there for almost 20 minutes, his eyes fixed on the classroom window the whole time.
00:55:13If he dares lay a finger on my daughter, I'll make sure he never pulled his head up again.
00:55:22The judge just signed it. The emergency restraining order is in effect.
00:55:25William cannot come within 200 feet of Bailey. The police will serve it in five minutes.
00:55:29Five minutes?
00:55:31Yes, but the man in the baseball cap from the surveillance footage got into a car and left one minute
00:55:36before the order was signed.
00:55:44The restraining order is in effect. I've added two extra layers of security at the kindergarten.
00:55:49If William can't touch Bailey, he'll go bite somewhere else.
00:55:54We have a problem. The three raw material suppliers who just agreed to work with us have all suddenly cut
00:55:59off supply at the same time. They've pulled back all the payment terms.
00:56:03Not three. A whole string of them. Marcus has made his move.
00:56:08Jane! Open the door! Deal's off! Settle the final payment!
00:56:12Jane, we can't hold them downstairs. They forced the security gate open.
00:56:22Marcus has already bought out all your inventory for the next three months.
00:56:25You owe us the final payment. And you're settling it tonight!
00:56:29We gave you face before because we thought you could do business.
00:56:32Who dares to stand by your side now?
00:56:35Are you here for money? Or are you here to wreck the place for Marcus?
00:56:38Cut the act. Your company's about to shut down.
00:56:42Whoever doesn't grab their share first is a fool.
00:56:45Blocking the door and demanding payment is illegal.
00:56:48Take one more step forward and I'll have the police take down your names right now.
00:56:52Can the police pay her debts? If we don't get the money today, nobody's leaving.
00:56:57All our partners have gotten whined of this. There are more people coming up from downstairs.
00:57:05Stop trying to scare us with the cops. The deal's off. No one's leaving this door until we see our
00:57:12penalty payment.
00:57:13Trespassing on private property? You won't see a single cent of that money.
00:57:17Who do you think you're scaring? Marcus has already cut off your company's funding chain.
00:57:22Even God himself couldn't get you out of paying what you owe us today.
00:57:25You said I don't have the money.
00:57:29Boss, our accounts really don't have that much liquid cash.
00:57:32Ross, notify the bank. Unfreeze my 8 million dollar personal trust fund. Transfer it all into the company account.
00:57:38That's the last safety net you set aside for Bailey.
00:57:40Do it. Settle all overdue payments immediately.
00:57:438 million? You actually have that much cash?
00:57:48President, you can't. You mustn't transfer it.
00:57:51Why?
00:57:51Marcus just bought out the debts of four more overseas suppliers.
00:57:55They've triggered the accelerated payment clause.
00:57:57Even if we throw in 8 million, we're still short by a full 10 million.
00:58:01The company account is completely drained.
00:58:03You bitch!
00:58:04You're playing us!
00:58:06Jane, get back!
00:58:12Watch out!
00:58:14Ross, are you okay? Let me get you to the hospital.
00:58:18The hell you are! No one's leaving until we get our money!
00:58:22Jane, get out of here! I'll hold them off!
00:58:24Security, get the CEO out! Don't you dare run!
00:58:30Jane, if you don't sign the re-payments agreement today, we'll take it out of your hide!
00:58:36Who dares touch her? Everyone, hands down. Step back.
00:58:40What good are the cops?
00:58:42A debt is a debt. It must be paid.
00:58:47I'm about to sign a 50 million dollar investment contract with Jane right now.
00:58:51If you keep causing trouble, you won't see a single cent.
00:58:55What?
00:59:00Thanks, Roger.
00:59:01I never imagined Marcus would stoop so low just to bring me down.
00:59:06Sign first.
00:59:0850 million is enough to shatter his cash flow.
00:59:17I did some digging on the way.
00:59:19This is the How West transaction records of Marcus money laundering in the Cayman Islands.
00:59:25Transaction records alone won't put him in prison. I need a witness.
00:59:28His former CFO is hiding in Queens. Go knock on his door.
00:59:32Thanks.
00:59:35Who is it?
00:59:39Who are you? What are you doing in my house?
00:59:44Two million in cash, plus a one-way ticket to Zurich tonight.
00:59:49Hand over the evidence on Marcus.
00:59:50No. I'm not leaving. Marcus is a madman. He'll kill me.
00:59:55And so will I right now. Take the money and go, or stay here and be buried with him.
01:00:00You better not be lying.
01:00:13All his off-the-books money laundering records for the past five years are in here.
01:00:17I'm giving you everything. I know nothing.
01:00:22This 30 million transfer to William's overseas account?
01:00:26Could William be involved in the money laundering now?
01:00:34Get this to the federal prosecutors immediately.
01:00:37I want Marcus's funding chain severed by the end of today.
01:00:40Understood. The trail of that 30 million in the ledger is enough to bury William along with Marcus.
01:00:52Marcus! My company's accounts are about to hit rock bottom!
01:00:56Give me the rest of my money back, now!
01:00:58Your money? Do you have any idea that Jane handed the encrypted ledger over to the prosecutors?
01:01:04That crazy bitch just got my entire overseas funding chain frozen!
01:01:09That's impossible. What about my company? You have to save me!
01:01:13Save you? You're a dead man walking.
01:01:16I've got a flight ticket out of here. Get lost. And stay out of my way.
01:01:24Oh, and I'll be telling the FBI that you, William, are the mastermind behind the money laundering.
01:01:31That's the price you pay for taking my investment and still failing to bring Jane down!
01:01:37No. I can't even leave any evidence behind. They can't know I was involved in this.
01:01:46Nothing can stay. Everything has to be destroyed.
01:01:52No. It's too late!
01:01:59William Thorns?
01:02:03This is an FBI subpoena. We need to investigate your situation now.
01:02:06On what grounds are you investigating me?
01:02:08Marcus has confessed everything.
01:02:10He says you mastermind the cross-border money laundering.
01:02:13That's a damn lie! He forced me into it!
01:02:17The client list and FunFlow records have been seized.
01:02:19Now, please come with us.
01:02:27Marcus is accusing you of being the mastermind behind the money laundering. Is that true?
01:02:32That's a frame-up. I'm innocent. The police are already investigating. They'll clear my name.
01:02:37The prosecution has obtained all the transfer ledgers. We hear there's conclusive evidence of your involvement in the laundering.
01:02:43Get away from me. All of you get lost.
01:02:45Jane just announced she's taking over your company!
01:02:49What do you have to say about your ex-wife's actions?
01:02:52What?
01:02:53Jane! I'll kill you!
01:03:05Jane, all the acquisition procedures for the tech company are complete. The supply chain is now fully integrated.
01:03:12What's the situation with William right now?
01:03:14William is still being cornered by reporters outside the federal building, completely unaware his own house is on fire.
01:03:24Jane, we brought the core team to report for duty.
01:03:27We didn't want to stay in William's mess for a second longer. The whole team is with you now.
01:03:31Welcome aboard. The company's stock options are already prepared for you.
01:03:35Working for William, we couldn't even get our salaries on time. There's real hope here with you.
01:03:41Jane! How dare you gut my company!
01:03:44Let me correct you. They saw the light and left. You're just a figurehead president now.
01:03:49Don't get too cocky! I will not go bankrupt!
01:03:53Oh really? The court's enforcement order has already been issued. Don't forget, you're still an economic criminal.
01:03:59It was you! You submitted that evidence! You're trying to destroy me!
01:04:03You dared to touch my daughter. I will take everything you ever had. Enjoy my revenge. Slowly.
01:04:14Marcus, you son of a bitch! You got all my assets seized, I don't even have a place to stay
01:04:19during the investigation.
01:04:30Betty? I thought you ran away.
01:04:32You expect me to stick around and go to jail with you?
01:04:37You bitch! What the hell are you doing here? Come to laugh at me? Get lost! I don't need your
01:04:42pity!
01:04:45We had a thing once. The auction house needs a mover.
01:04:49Since when do you do charity?
01:04:51There's an auction tomorrow you absolutely can't miss.
01:04:54What auction?
01:04:55The auction for that penthouse in your name.
01:05:03Pack Philippe Luxury Watch. Starting bid at $100,000.
01:05:10$50,000. Anyone for $30,000?
01:05:15Sold for $30,000.
01:05:17Next item. Manhattan Riverview Apartment. Starting bid at $2 million.
01:05:23$2 million. Any bids?
01:05:26All my assets devalue to this point. How pathetic.
01:05:32$1.5 million.
01:05:33Ma'am, the starting bid is $2 million.
01:05:36A debtor desperate for cash, that's all it's worth. Sell it at my price or I walk and let it
01:05:40go unsold.
01:05:41Sold for $1.5 million.
01:05:44$1.5 million, Jane. The house we bought for $20 million.
01:05:48Ends up back in your hands for a fraction of the price.
01:05:51What are you doing?
01:05:52This is a place for rich people.
01:05:54What's a poor Wesser like you peeking at?
01:06:03Here's your pay for the day. Take it and get lost. Don't go bothering the rich folks.
01:06:10Not much, is it?
01:06:12Consider this a gift to me.
01:06:13Give it back! I can't even afford a meal!
01:06:15Did you really think I'd get you a job for free?
01:06:18From now on, you give me the lion's shore of your wages.
01:06:22Or I'll call the reporters and media over to see how far you've fallen.
01:06:26Are you really trying to cut off my last lifeline?
01:06:30You owe me! I even paid for the abortion myself!
01:06:33You bitch! We might as well die together!
01:06:37Let's... go!
01:06:39I'll fucking kill you!
01:06:41Ugh!
01:06:47William! You're insane! Let go!
01:06:51You wanted money, didn't you? I've lost everything!
01:06:54Even my life is on the line, and you're still trying to bleed me dry!
01:06:57You're the one who tricked me into being with you! The house is gone! The money is gone! Don't I
01:07:03deserve something from you?
01:07:04Shut up!
01:07:05It's all your fault. If you hadn't come back to make a scene, I might have found a way to
01:07:09survive.
01:07:09Help! Help! Help me! Someone help!
01:07:16Help me!
01:07:17Betty! Stop faking it! Get up! Get up now!
01:07:22Betty! Get up!
01:07:24You're always the one making a fuss, aren't you?
01:07:27Get up!
01:07:33New guy, you sleep on the floor.
01:07:39Hey!
01:07:40What are you looking at?
01:07:42You were some big-shot CEO out there, but in here, you're just another dog.
01:07:47I've seen you online. The suit kneeling in the street. That was you, right?
01:07:51I don't want to talk to anyone right now.
01:07:54Shut up.
01:07:54Who do you think you're ordering around?
01:07:59No secretaries here? No bodyguards? What can you do?
01:08:03Neil?
01:08:03Don't touch me!
01:08:10What's with the tough act? Heard you used to live in a Riverview penthouse.
01:08:14How much did a night's sleep cost you back then?
01:08:17Back then, the cars were mine, the house was mine, the company was mine.
01:08:22Jane stood by my side, shielding me from everything.
01:08:25What's the matter? Gonna cry? Get lost!
01:08:30Too late. Guys like you get taken down outside, then come in here for round two.
01:08:36Fuck!
01:08:37Remember this. In here, you've got nothing.
01:08:45What are you staring at? You think you're still the CEO?
01:08:52Help me. Someone help me.
01:08:55Stop! Back to the corner, all of you.
01:09:01William, I'm here to formally notify you.
01:09:05The prosecution has formally convicted you on charges of embezzlement, money laundering, and other economic crimes.
01:09:15The investigation was still ongoing. Why me?
01:09:19Miss Jane has submitted your company's complete financial records and the criminal indictment.
01:09:23You are now convicted.
01:09:25Jane, it's you again.
01:09:30Is she really determined to destroy me?
01:09:32The amount involved is enormous.
01:09:34You could face up to ten years in prison.
01:09:37Get ready to see your lawyer.
01:09:41Jane, I know I was wrong.
01:09:43Please, let me go. I'm begging you.
01:09:46You brought this on yourself.
01:09:51Jane, William has been criminally charged. Do you still hate him now?
01:09:55No, I don't.
01:09:56Hate requires energy.
01:09:58I need to build my career and spend time with my daughter.
01:10:02I announce.
01:10:04The substantial funds have been transferred.
01:10:07I will become the second largest shareholder of your company.
01:10:13Mr. Roger, you're making a huge investment right as her ex-husband goes to prison.
01:10:18May we ask if there's something more personal brewing between you two?
01:10:22Are you two living together?
01:10:24Spare me your cheap gossip.
01:10:26Mr. Roger and I are bound by pure business interests.
01:10:29This is business.
01:10:31We talk money, not feelings.
01:10:34Right, shareholder Roger?
01:10:39I'm not pleading guilty.
01:10:41Why should I be locked up for ten years?
01:10:44Aren't you supposed to be some hot, hot lawyer?
01:10:46Help me!
01:10:48The financial records Ross submitted are floss lawless.
01:10:52I can't defend you right now.
01:10:53I'm the CEO of a major corporation.
01:10:56Defend me and I'll give you all the money you want.
01:10:59All your assets have been frozen.
01:11:02You can't even afford my appearance fee for today.
01:11:04As long as I refuse to talk, the court can't touch me.
01:11:09The evidence for money laundering and embezzlement is rock solid.
01:11:13Keep fighting and the judge will definitely give you the maximum sentence.
01:11:1715 years or more.
01:11:2015 years.
01:11:21How did it come to this?
01:11:23No, I can't spend 15 years in this hell hole.
01:11:27I'll go insane.
01:11:28Sign this plea agreement and you can get your sentence reduced to five years.
01:11:31Why should Jane Sterling be living it up with my money while I'm here pressing my thumbprint?
01:11:37The prosecution is only giving us three more minutes.
01:11:41Don't go. I'll sign.
01:11:42Jane.
01:11:44Just you wait.
01:11:46I'll be back.
01:11:54Jane, I signed the confession.
01:11:56Will you just look at me? Just one look.
01:11:59Order.
01:12:02Defendant William.
01:12:03This court finds the prosecution's charges of illegal trespass, embezzlement, money laundering and six other felonies to be substantiated by
01:12:14clear evidence.
01:12:15Your Honor, I sign the agreement. I admit my guilt.
01:12:18Based on the plea agreement, this court now pronounces sense.
01:12:22The defendant, William, is hereby sentenced to ten years in prison, effective immediately.
01:12:28Ten years? My lawyer said I'd get a reduced sentence if I pleaded guilty.
01:12:32Jane, you set me up.
01:12:34The law decided. Ask the judge.
01:12:36Given the enormous amount and egregious nature of the defendant's crimes, this court hereby imposes an additional fine of $1
01:12:43.2 million.
01:12:45Failure to pay will result in an extension of the prison term as prescribed by law.
01:12:51$1.2 million?
01:12:53All my assets have been auctioned off.
01:12:56I don't have a single cent to my name.
01:12:58Jane! Help me. For Bailey's sake, help me pay the fine. I can't rot in there.
01:13:04Bailey's father died long ago. You're just a fraud.
01:13:07Jane! You can't do this to me! You vicious bitch! I'll haunt you from the grave!
01:13:16What's going on? Why are there so many people gathered at the company entrance?
01:13:22Jane! I'm begging you as a mother!
01:13:25You've already driven William to bankruptcy. And now you want to push him to his death too?
01:13:31Oh my god, making an old woman kneel like that? That's just heartless.
01:13:36You were husband and wife once. There should still be some affection left.
01:13:41You're worth billions now. Why can't you just spare him? Give him a way out!
01:13:45He was convicted by the court for embezzlement and money-lunny laundering.
01:13:52If you think it's unjust, you should go kneel in front of the courthouse.
01:13:57Everyone, keep filming!
01:13:59This woman is even bullying her own mother-in-law!
01:14:03I'm gonna show the whole internet what you're really like!
01:14:06Make sure you get a clear shot.
01:14:08Today, I'm gonna teach everyone what it truly means to show no mercy.
01:14:18The whole internet is flooded with articles calling you heartless, saying you drove your ex-mother-in-law to her
01:14:25death.
01:14:25The company's official website is about to be overwhelmed by the backlash.
01:14:30Top trending search? William and his mother are broke.
01:14:33This is someone behind the scenes trying to ride the wave and get attention.
01:14:37Do you need me to contact the PR department to forcibly suppress the trending topic?
01:14:42No suppression. Since they want to make this a big deal, I'll give them the biggest stage possible.
01:14:48What are you gonna do?
01:14:49Help me contact the Forbes interview journalist. Get the press conference venue ready.
01:14:54I'm going to show the world the truth.
01:14:58Mrs. Sterling, your ex-mother-in-law knelt publicly, begging you to spare William, yet you vowed to show no
01:15:05mercy.
01:15:05How do you explain such a cold-blooded act? I don't need to explain. I only look at the evidence.
01:15:12What you're holding are the financial transaction records proving William embezzled company funds, and the hard evidence of his money
01:15:19laundering through asset transfers.
01:15:22These are all overseas private accounts? William used the money I fronted to support his mistress.
01:15:28He used company funds to fill bottomless poles, participate in money laundering schemes, and the court sentenced him to prison.
01:15:36That's the law punishing a criminal.
01:15:38So that's the truth. I stand here today to tell everyone, kindness should not be mistaken for weakness.
01:15:45I will pursue every single cent awarded by the legal judgment to the very end.
01:15:58My mom says your dad is a big liar. He's a convict who got caught.
01:16:03That's not true. My dad is not a bad person.
01:16:06It was on TV. Your dad wears a prison uniform and has to go to jail. You're just a convict's
01:16:12daughter.
01:16:17Sweetie, what's wrong?
01:16:19Mommy, they said Daddy is a bad person, a convict.
01:16:23Bailey, look at Mommy.
01:16:25Is Daddy really a bad person? Why does he have to go to jail?
01:16:30Daddy did something wrong, and he has to pay the price for his mistakes.
01:16:37Should I still love Daddy then? The other kids won't play with me anymore.
01:16:42You can choose to love Daddy, or you can choose not to.
01:16:45Whatever Bailey decides, Mommy will always support you.
01:16:49Mommy, Daddy is bad. I only want you. I only love you.
01:17:02I finally managed to sneak out of that hell hole, and I'm never going back.
01:17:07I'm going to make your lives a living hell. You and your daughter.
01:17:20I got you. Right here.
01:17:24William, you violated the restraining order by leaving the detention center without authorization and engaging in threatening behavior.
01:17:30You are now under arrest.
01:17:32I just sent a text. I didn't do anything. You can't do this to me.
01:17:42The defendant, William, not only disobeyed management during his detention, but also sent threatening messages.
01:17:50This action constitutes a serious violation of the restraining order.
01:17:54Your Honor, I was wrong. I'll never do it again.
01:17:57This court hereby rules. William is to be immediately transferred to a maximum security prison to serve his sentence.
01:18:05No! I can't go there! I'll die in that place!
01:18:10Jane, for Bailey's sake, please beg for leniency.
01:18:13You don't deserve to speak Bailey's name.
01:18:15I'm her biological father. You can't be this cruel!
01:18:20From the moment you sent that text, you were nothing but a dead man walking.
01:18:25Jane! I'll haunt you from the grave!
01:18:28Come on.
01:18:34Good morning, President.
01:18:36The President's office has been restored to your specifications.
01:18:40From now on, the entire floor's ownership, management rights, and usage rights all belongs to the new Sterling Group.
01:18:47Everyone, back to work.
01:18:50President. Good morning, President.
01:18:58Am I interrupting the President at work if I come in now?
01:19:01Come in.
01:19:06Congratulations, Jane. I knew from the day you were kicked out that you'd be sitting back here eventually.
01:19:11You got this ex-acquisition deal for a real bargain.
01:19:14Because someone played a winning hand and turned it into trash.
01:19:18But I'm not here with flowers just to congratulate you on winning the company.
01:19:22Then what for?
01:19:27I'm not here tonight to talk business.
01:19:30Then what do you want to talk about?
01:19:31I've invested, taken sides, kept the press at bay, and stuck with you through all this.
01:19:38Not because I'm a philanthropist.
01:19:41I know.
01:19:42You know, and you've been pretending not to?
01:19:45Roger, I'm not pretending. I just can't drag you into this mess along with everything else.
01:19:49I walked in here on my own.
01:19:52Jane, my feelings for you, they're not new.
01:19:55I want to stand by your side, not just at the signing table.
01:19:58You've helped me a lot, and I remember that.
01:20:01I've understood your intentions for a while now.
01:20:04But every decision I make right now has to put Bailey first.
01:20:08Anyone Bailey doesn't approve of, I won't accept.
01:20:16Mommy!
01:20:20What brings you here?
01:20:23Uncle Ross said you were busy, but I still missed you.
01:20:28Mommy, I'll always respect your decisions.
01:20:31Who taught you to say that?
01:20:33I thought of it myself, because Mommy always asks me what I want first.
01:20:38Mommy should have someone ask her what she wants, too.
01:20:42Bailey, my decisions will always protect you first.
01:20:45I know, but Mommy needs to be happy, too.
01:20:48I just drew this.
01:20:50This is Mommy, this is me, and on the right...
01:20:54Uncle Roger, I'm saving that spot on the right for you.
01:20:58Whether you get to stand there is up to Mommy.
01:21:07Jane!
01:21:08You finally came to see me!
01:21:10My mother has dirt on you!
01:21:12Just sign the letter of forgiveness and get me out of here, and I'll make her shut up immediately!
01:21:16The so-called secret your mother has is just the tired old story of you cheating with three women while
01:21:21we were secretly married.
01:21:22The whole internet is bored of it by now.
01:21:25Impossible! You're lying to me!
01:21:27Your overseas accounts are frozen.
01:21:30Your apartment is mine.
01:21:32You can't even afford the phone call to your lawyer anymore.
01:21:37Jane, I'm begging you!
01:21:38For Bailey's sake, give me one more chance, please!
01:21:42I'll be your slave when I get out!
01:21:44You don't deserve to say Bailey's name.
01:21:47I was the CEO of the group!
01:21:50You can't just throw me away like trash here!
01:21:52My company is ringing the bell on NASDAQ tomorrow.
01:21:55And you?
01:21:56You're only fit to rot in this cell.
01:22:01This is the last time I'll see you.
01:22:03All debts from the past are settled.
01:22:05From now on, I'm starting my new life.
01:22:12Goodbye, William.
01:22:17Jane, ten seconds to go. The group is about to go public.
01:22:21Bailey, are you ready?
01:22:22Mommy, are we going to ring that big bell?
01:22:25Yes, this is our moment.
01:22:34Five billion.
01:22:35You did it!
01:22:37Jane, you won this all on your own.
01:22:39You're the queen of Wall Street now.
01:22:41After leaving William, I just returned to where I belong.
01:22:44Your Majesty, tonight you outshine the entire market.
01:22:48Roger, without your investment, my group wouldn't have come this far.
01:22:51I invested in you, the person, never the company.
01:22:55Uncle Roger, are you here for Mommy too?
01:22:58Be good, Bailey. Uncle has something even more important to do right now.
01:23:06Jane, you've won back your business empire, but I hope to win the rest of your life.
01:23:10Will you marry me?
01:23:12What did you say?
01:23:17I know this is sudden, but I don't want to wait any longer.
01:23:21Roger, you are the business partner I admire most.
01:23:24I want more than just a business partner.
01:23:27I'm sorry, Roger. I just crawled out of a terrible marriage.
01:23:30I still need time to adjust to a new relationship.
01:23:33I was too impatient. I said I'd wait for you, and I will, for as long as it takes.
01:23:38Thank you for understanding. We're still the best partners.
01:23:42Let's congratulate Jane once more on her success.
01:23:46Although Jane didn't accept Roger's proposal on the spot,
01:23:50this is undoubtedly the most daskling power couple on Wall Street.
01:23:56That's my wife! That's my daughter! That's my company!
01:24:00Give it all back to me.
01:24:06Five years. The Sterling Group's market cap has surpassed $10 billion.
01:24:11Today, the Queen of Wall's weight, Jane, is finally having her wedding of the century.
01:24:21I've transferred all my assets into your name.
01:24:24My CEO, will you sign off on this lifetime deal?
01:24:27I made you wait five years ago.
01:24:30Weren't you afraid you'd end up with nothing?
01:24:32No person, no fortune?
01:24:34Being chosen by you is the most successful investment of my life.
01:24:39Deal.
01:24:51New guy! You broke three bone-china plates! You're not getting paid a dime today!
01:24:57I'll pay for them. Let me take one more look.
01:25:00Look at what? That's the Wall Street Quetting out there.
01:25:03What makes you think an ex-con like you is fit to watch?
01:25:07That's my wife! That's my daughter!
01:25:15Lookin' for a death wish, huh? You're insane! Get the hell outta here!
01:25:24That should've all been mine.
01:25:31Mommy, why did you bring me here?
01:25:34This place is very important to me.
01:25:37It's where I saw people for who they really are, and where my new life began.
01:25:47The sunlight is so beautiful today!
01:25:50After all the twists and turns, the name Sterling has finally returned to its throne.
01:25:54It never left.
01:25:57This is my territory. It always has been.
01:26:01I'm back.
