00:00:09Miss Sterling
00:00:10Miss Sterling
00:00:12Tonight is your birthday gala
00:00:14Mr. Sterling sent us to escort you to the venue
00:00:16Mike, please
00:00:18How many times do I have to tell you?
00:00:20Could you keep it low profile?
00:00:22I don't want people at school knowing who I am
00:00:24But Mr. Sterling insisted
00:00:26I'll bike there myself
00:00:27Now please, leave before my classmates see you
00:00:31Unbelievable
00:00:32The venue is miles away from her school
00:00:34How is she going to get there on her own?
00:00:38Forget it, I'll pick her up myself
00:00:41Let's go together
00:00:42Danielle is going to be my stepdaughter soon
00:00:45I've been looking forward to meet her
00:00:46If I want to ensure my place as Mrs. Sterling
00:00:49I need to win over the one person he cares about most
00:00:52His daughter
00:00:59The man is older than you
00:01:01He's got a kid from before
00:01:03And you're not even asking for a prenup?
00:01:06Are you out of your mind?
00:01:08Mom, trust me
00:01:10My fiancƩ is no ordinary man
00:01:13Fine, you want to marry him?
00:01:14Then at least get something out of it
00:01:16I want one hundred thousand
00:01:18No, two hundred thousand as a gift
00:01:21Minimum
00:01:21All right, all right, Mom
00:01:22I'll send you a surprise when the time comes
00:01:25Gotta go, bye
00:01:25Hey!
00:01:27You are already babysitting someone else for free?
00:01:30Try and surprise me
00:01:31I'll believe it when I see it
00:01:34Who left this shit here blocking the sidewalk?
00:01:48Oh, God
00:01:51My back
00:01:56Ma'am, are you okay?
00:01:59Sweetheart, help me up
00:02:01I promise I won't cause you any trouble
00:02:03Okay, let me help you up
00:02:07Oh, honey
00:02:08I think you need to take me to the hospital
00:02:11All right, let's go
00:02:12Thanks
00:02:12It's so nice of you
00:02:22Ma'am, here's your bill
00:02:24You should call your family to take care of the payment
00:02:28What?
00:02:29I'll leave, it's okay
00:02:35Hold on
00:02:36You're the one who knocked me down
00:02:38You're not leaving until you pay this bill
00:02:46Hold on
00:02:47You're the one who knocked me down
00:02:49You're not leaving until you pay this bill
00:02:53Ma'am, I stopped to help you out of kindness
00:02:55How can you accuse me of something I didn't do?
00:02:59Kindness?
00:03:00Please
00:03:01If it isn't you who knocked me down
00:03:03Why would you bother helping me?
00:03:05You brought me here
00:03:06Because you knew you were responsible
00:03:10I'm telling you
00:03:12You're paying every single cent
00:03:15End of discussion!
00:03:18That's not fair
00:03:19I didn't hit you and that's the truth
00:03:21What's the point of arguing back and forth?
00:03:24If you want the truth
00:03:25Just call the police and check the street cameras
00:03:28I don't need cameras!
00:03:29I was there!
00:03:31I know exactly what happened!
00:03:33If she didn't hit me
00:03:34Why did she bring me to the hospital?
00:03:38Lady, it's obvious you're taking advantage of this girl's kindness
00:03:42People like you are the reason no one dares to help strangers anymore
00:03:46Shut your fucking mouth!
00:03:48Mind your own business!
00:03:50Who the fuck asked for your opinion?
00:03:53How could you...
00:03:56Watch your mouth for God's sake!
00:03:59So what?
00:04:00Who cares?
00:04:06What the hell is going on in here?
00:04:09Tyler!
00:04:10Thank God you're here!
00:04:12These people have been ganging up on me!
00:04:17Good.
00:04:19You're her son?
00:04:20Your mother is falsely accusing this young lady
00:04:23What do you say?
00:04:26What do I say?
00:04:28Do you have any idea who my mother is?
00:04:30She's about to become the mother-in-law of Richard Sterling
00:04:33The CEO of Sterling Group
00:04:35My dad?
00:04:36What?
00:04:38Richard Sterling
00:04:40That's the wealthiest man in the entire state
00:04:45Tyler!
00:04:46Your sister's fiancƩ is really Richard Sterling?
00:04:50The CEO of Sterling Group?
00:04:52Of course, Mom
00:04:53Once my sister marries Mr. Sterling
00:04:56It's only a matter of time
00:04:58Before I move up to a senior position at Sterling Group
00:05:01Wonderful!
00:05:02The coal is finally going places
00:05:09Weren't you all so brave a minute ago?
00:05:11What's the matter now?
00:05:13Nothing left to say?
00:05:14Oh, Mom
00:05:15Mr. Sterling personally invited our whole family to dinner tonight
00:05:17I came to pick you up
00:05:18But someone on the street said you were taken to the hospital
00:05:20What happened?
00:05:21This gang right here
00:05:23She knocked me down
00:05:24Refused to pay my medical bills
00:05:26And even talked back to me
00:05:28So it's you who hit my mother
00:05:30Who the fuck are you?
00:05:31I didn't hit her
00:05:32You're accusing the wrong person
00:05:35My mother is lying in that hospital bed
00:05:38And you're still denying it?
00:05:39Call her parents!
00:05:41I really want to see who raised a daughter with such terrible manners
00:05:45You're the ones in the wrong
00:05:47You have no right to drag my parents into this
00:05:51You want to say that again?
00:05:54What is going on in here?
00:05:56This is a hospital
00:05:57If you can't keep it down, I'm calling security
00:06:00A nurse is telling me what to do?
00:06:02This doesn't concern you, dear
00:06:04This hussy hit my mother and refuses to pay
00:06:06I'm handling a family matter
00:06:08Stay out of it!
00:06:09I don't care about the reason
00:06:10You're disturbing other patients
00:06:12Either keep your voices down or take it outside
00:06:14Now
00:06:15My mother is your patient too
00:06:17What do you mean take it outside?
00:06:24Vanessa, sweetheart, come to the hospital right now
00:06:27And bring your fiancƩ
00:06:28Your mother and your brother need backup
00:06:37Vanessa, get to the West Metro Hospital now
00:06:40Your mother and your brother are being pushed around
00:06:43What?
00:06:44Stay calm, Mom
00:06:45I'm on my way
00:06:46Vanessa, what's wrong?
00:06:51Honey, something came up with my mom
00:06:53Let me go handle it real quick
00:06:56I can help
00:06:57Let me go with you
00:06:59No, it's fine
00:07:00I can handle it myself
00:07:01You should go pick up Danielle
00:07:03It's not safe for her to ride all that way alone
00:07:05Alright
00:07:06If you need anything, call me
00:07:08I will
00:07:12Get a few guys and meet me at the hospital
00:07:14Let me see who has the nerve to mess with my mother
00:07:20Who the fuck making trouble at this point?
00:07:22The four of you?
00:07:23Go bring those gifts over
00:07:25Yes, ma'am
00:07:30Who is bullying my mother?
00:07:32Ma'am, this is a hospital
00:07:34Please keep it down
00:07:35Am I the one making noise?
00:07:37Or are you?
00:07:38This is Mrs. Sterling
00:07:39Wife of the CEO of Sterling Group
00:07:43Dad's wife?
00:07:45I've never heard anything about this
00:07:47This hospital was funded by Sterling Group
00:07:49I assume you're aware of that
00:07:52Ryan, right?
00:07:53I'm firing your ass tomorrow
00:07:57Vanessa, it's that hussy right there
00:08:00She knocked mom down and still won't admit it
00:08:03Mom, how do you feel?
00:08:05Ouch
00:08:07I can barely move
00:08:09Vanessa
00:08:10With mom's injuries
00:08:12We should make her pay at least
00:08:14300,000
00:08:19Is money all you ever think about?
00:08:21Maybe this lady is actually reasonable
00:08:26Ma'am, my father is
00:08:31I don't care who your father is
00:08:34And I didn't ask
00:08:38I don't care who your father is
00:08:41And I didn't ask
00:08:43That's right!
00:08:44Vanessa, you can't just let this go
00:08:46Are you gonna let your mother get hit for nothing?
00:08:49Exactly, Vanessa
00:08:50You're Mr. Sterling's wife
00:08:52If word gets out that someone did this to our mom
00:08:54And got away with it
00:08:55Where is your dignity?
00:08:57Look at her
00:08:58Clearly from a nobody family
00:08:59Forget 300,000
00:09:01I doubt her entire family could scrape together 10
00:09:04Ma'am, I'm telling the truth
00:09:06They're falsely accusing me
00:09:08She fell on her own
00:09:09I didn't hit her
00:09:11You didn't hit her?
00:09:12Then why did you help her up?
00:09:14You're awfully good at lying for someone your age
00:09:16Dealing with people like you is such a waste of my time
00:09:18I was supposed to be picking out a birthday gift for my future stepdaughter
00:09:21And now you've ruined my schedule
00:09:24Future stepdaughter?
00:09:25I
00:09:27Yes
00:09:28Because of you
00:09:29I gotta deal with this mess instead
00:09:32Ma'am, I just
00:09:35Don't you try to fool me
00:09:36Now call your parents immediately
00:09:38You little artful hussy hit my mother
00:09:41Your family owes us at least 300,000
00:09:44Oh God, my leg
00:09:45I think she broke my leg
00:09:47Poor girl
00:09:48She messed with the wrong people
00:09:50Sterling Group is the most powerful company in the state
00:09:52Every VIP in town bows to them
00:09:55This girl's family is toast
00:10:03Dad
00:10:04That thing won't stop buzzing annoying
00:10:13What happened?
00:10:14Bad signal?
00:10:16I told you to call your parents
00:10:17Not play with your gadgets
00:10:19God damn, do you speak English?
00:10:21That was my dad calling me just now
00:10:23Tyler, give her your phone
00:10:25Let her call her parents
00:10:26I don't have time to waste here
00:10:29Hurry up
00:10:34Hello, who is this?
00:10:35Dad, it's me
00:10:37I'm at the hospital
00:10:40Your daughter got herself into trouble
00:10:42Get your ass to East Metro Hospital
00:10:44Now
00:10:45Who is this?
00:10:46Who I am doesn't matter
00:10:47Your daughter put my mother in the hospital
00:10:49Are you gonna deal with this or not?
00:10:50I'll pay whatever it takes
00:10:51But
00:10:52Don't you dare touch my daughter
00:10:53I'm on my way
00:10:55That voice
00:10:57Unbelievable
00:10:57The venue is miles away from her school
00:10:59How is she gonna get there on her own?
00:11:01Forget it
00:11:01I'll pick her up myself
00:11:02I can help
00:11:03Let me go with you
00:11:04Ma'am, my father is
00:11:08Who's your father?
00:11:13East Metro Hospital in 10 minutes
00:11:15Step on it
00:11:16Yes, sir
00:11:21Honey, this gem necklace
00:11:23I got it from my mom
00:11:24When I was to Danielle's age
00:11:26Give it to Danielle for me
00:11:28Tell her that mommy became this pendult
00:11:31And she'll always be with her
00:11:33Don't be silly, babe
00:11:34You're gonna get well soon
00:11:36You can give it to her yourself
00:11:37I know my own body
00:11:40After I'm gone
00:11:41Find Danielle a good mother
00:11:44Our child can't grow up without a mom
00:11:49Sweetheart
00:11:50I promise you
00:11:51No one will ever lay a hand on our daughter
00:11:55That voice
00:11:57Why does it sound so familiar?
00:12:02Who is your father?
00:12:03Who cares who her dad is?
00:12:05He can't be more important than my brother-in-law
00:12:07Give me the phone
00:12:18It's just an unknown number
00:12:20I almost had a heart attack
00:12:22I thought it was Richard
00:12:23What's with that look?
00:12:24Your mother got hurt
00:12:26And you can't even be bothered to stand up for me?
00:12:28Mom
00:12:28I have to attend my future stepdaughter's birthday gala tonight
00:12:31She's not even your real daughter
00:12:33Why do you care so much?
00:12:34Richard's daughter is the person he cares about the most in the world
00:12:38I have to make a good impression on her
00:12:39Then you'd better hurry up and give Richard a child of you two
00:12:43Once you do, trust me
00:12:46He'll forget all about that girl
00:12:48Dad will never fall in love with a woman like her
00:12:51Did you hear that?
00:12:53My sister has important things to do tonight
00:12:55And you're the one holding everything up
00:12:57My dad will be here soon
00:12:58He'll prove that I didn't hit anyone
00:13:00Your dad?
00:13:01Your dad is nobody!
00:13:04Let me tell you
00:13:05If your family can't pay up
00:13:07You'll all be working for us like servants for the rest of your lives
00:13:11My dad works at Sterling Group
00:13:13Is that so?
00:13:14Then consider him fired
00:13:18Oh, so your daddy is just an employee at Sterling Group?
00:13:24Raising a daughter with no manners
00:13:25That kind of employee deserves to be fired
00:13:28It'll be a good lesson for everyone else at Sterling Group
00:13:30Learn to respect the CEO's wife
00:13:37You can't fire my dad
00:13:38Every executive in that company bows to me
00:13:41Who does your father think he is?
00:13:43What's that?
00:13:49Give it back!
00:13:50Give it back!
00:13:51Give me back where my pendant!
00:13:57This pendant looks expensive
00:13:58Might fetch a nice price
00:14:00Lucky me
00:14:01I still owe money from that poker game last month
00:14:05Vanessa
00:14:06Careful with that
00:14:11This means a lot to you
00:14:13Huh?
00:14:14It's the only thing my mom left me
00:14:15Please, I'm begging you
00:14:17Give it back!
00:14:18If it's so precious
00:14:19Why didn't you protect it better?
00:14:23No!
00:14:23Please don't!
00:14:27Please
00:14:28Give it back to me
00:14:29Say it
00:14:30Admit that you're the one who knocked my mother down
00:14:34I'm sorry
00:14:36It was my fault
00:14:37I was the one who knocked you down
00:14:40Please
00:14:41Just give me back my pendant
00:14:46Good
00:14:47Now that you've admitted it
00:14:49Apologize to my mother
00:14:51Properly
00:14:56An apology
00:14:57Should look like an apology
00:14:59Don't you think?
00:15:03Dad
00:15:03Please hurry
00:15:05Dad
00:15:06Please hurry
00:15:07Dad
00:15:08No!
00:15:18My apologies
00:15:24Miss Cole
00:15:25The gifts you ordered for the young miss
00:15:26They're all ready
00:15:27Hmm
00:15:29Come in
00:15:37How much do you think all that costs?
00:15:39That's the CEO's fiancƩ for you
00:15:42Money is no object
00:15:45All this expensive stuff
00:15:47Wasted on someone
00:15:49Else's leftover kid
00:15:51What a shame
00:15:56Fanny
00:15:57How much did these take?
00:15:58Do not touch
00:16:01Come on, Fanny
00:16:02She's not even your real daughter
00:16:03Why treat this stuff like it's sacred?
00:16:09Hello?
00:16:10Who is this?
00:16:11Where exactly are you?
00:16:12I'm in the room and and
00:16:14I can't see you guys
00:16:16Are you fucking
00:16:17Blind?
00:16:18There are people
00:16:20Everywhere in here
00:16:22How can you not see us?
00:16:24Don't try to stall for time
00:16:54West Metro Hospital
00:16:56Miss Cole
00:16:57Miss Cole
00:16:57Your phone
00:17:03Hey babe
00:17:04What's up?
00:17:05Vanessa
00:17:06Where are you right now?
00:17:07I'm putting the finishing touches on Danielle's gifts
00:17:10I'll head to the gala soon
00:17:11Are you already there?
00:17:13No, I gotta be a little late
00:17:14There's something
00:17:15Dad
00:17:17Shut your mouth
00:17:18Shut your mouth now
00:17:20Do you want me to come help you?
00:17:21No need
00:17:35What do you think you're doing screaming like that?
00:17:40Give my necklace back
00:17:42You skink
00:17:44Get away
00:17:47You are such a bad witch
00:17:55Fanny, watch out
00:18:04Look what you've done
00:18:07You've ruined everything
00:18:13This figurine was a $500,000 custom piece
00:18:17Can you even comprehend what that means?
00:18:21First she gets scammed by that woman
00:18:23Now she owes half a million
00:18:25This poor girl's life is already over
00:18:27Right
00:18:28Tonight is Danielle's birthday gala
00:18:31Now you've destroyed her gift
00:18:35How am I supposed to explain this?
00:18:37You're nothing but a goddamn jinx
00:18:39You've been wasting my time all along
00:18:41And I won't let you off
00:18:43Not ever
00:18:44Vanessa, just say the word
00:18:46I'll handle her
00:18:47And when her parents show up
00:18:49We fix them too
00:18:50This whole family is a curse
00:18:53Stop
00:18:57Stop, all of you stop right now
00:19:04And who are you supposed to be?
00:19:08Fuck off
00:19:08I'm the director of this hospital
00:19:10A hospital director
00:19:12So what?
00:19:14You can't treat a young woman like this in my hospital
00:19:17Mind your own business
00:19:19One more word and we'll deal with you too
00:19:22If you don't stop
00:19:23I'm calling the police
00:19:25Right now
00:19:26You've spent your whole career climbing to this position
00:19:30It'd be a shame to throw it all away
00:19:32Over something this trivial like this
00:19:34You should know that the biggest hair holder of this hospital
00:19:38Is Sterling Group
00:19:40My sister is Mr. Sterling's fiance
00:19:43Do you really want to make an enemy of us?
00:19:48You two, this girl is...
00:19:49A nobody
00:19:50I don't care who she is
00:19:51I'm on a tight schedule
00:19:53Don't waste my time
00:19:55You heard her
00:19:56My girl is busy
00:19:57If you know what's good for you
00:19:59Leave
00:20:00Also
00:20:01Move my mother to a VIP suite
00:20:03I don't want her sharing a room with these people
00:20:07And you
00:20:08Prepare another gift for Danielle
00:20:10A million dollars worth
00:20:12Make sure it's something she'll love
00:20:14Fanny, honey
00:20:15You really should give Richard a baby soon
00:20:17So you won't have to keep spoiling someone else's child
00:20:21She is Danielle
00:20:22Danielle Sterling
00:20:29That's impossible
00:20:31You don't know what you're talking about
00:20:32This is the form she signed when she was admitted
00:20:40Danielle
00:20:42Sweetie
00:20:42This is all a misunderstanding
00:20:44I was just
00:20:45Joking around with you
00:20:48Don't touch me
00:20:50Sweetheart
00:20:50Grandma's old and goofy
00:20:52I had no idea you were my future step-granddaughter
00:20:55I'm just a silly old woman
00:20:56You're young and kind
00:20:58Don't hold it against me, okay?
00:21:00Hey, my little niece
00:21:01What a mix-up
00:21:03What a small world
00:21:04We're family
00:21:04Family?
00:21:06Don't make me laugh
00:21:08Danielle
00:21:09If I had known it was you
00:21:11I never would have
00:21:12Exactly
00:21:13You should have said something earlier, sweetie
00:21:20Daniela, look at this
00:21:21I had this custom made for you by a great designer in Milana
00:21:25One of a kind in the world
00:21:27It's worth $2 million
00:21:31And this necklace
00:21:33Handcrafted by a master jeweler in Paris
00:21:36How beautiful
00:21:38Worth $3 million
00:21:39That figurine
00:21:42Sorry, I know I messed up
00:21:43Whatever
00:21:44From now on, however many you want
00:21:46I'll buy them all for you
00:21:47I don't want any of it
00:21:51Danielle
00:21:51You lost your mother so young
00:21:54Let me take good care of you
00:21:56Okay?
00:21:57I promise I'll treat you like my own daughter
00:22:00Someone like you will never be my mother
00:22:02I'll make sure of it
00:22:04Wait a minute
00:22:06I know
00:22:07There's no way
00:22:09She's actually Mr. Sterling's daughter
00:22:14Tyler, what are you doing?
00:22:19Director, if you actually know the Sterling heiress
00:22:21Why didn't you just identify her face to face?
00:22:25Why make a big show of pulling out some form?
00:22:28Unless
00:22:29You've never actually met her
00:22:31I
00:22:32Well, I haven't
00:22:34So you're saying you've never met the real Danielle Stickling in person?
00:22:37Are you?
00:22:38That's true, but
00:22:39Her signature matches the name
00:22:41And her age also matches perfectly
00:22:45So you're basing this entire claim on a name and an age?
00:22:49Are you kidding me?
00:22:53Vanessa
00:22:53Even if her name is Danielle Sterling
00:22:55It could just be a coincidence
00:22:56Same name, different person
00:22:59How can you prove she's not?
00:23:00How many subsidiaries does Sterling Group have?
00:23:03Who heads each one?
00:23:04I don't know
00:23:05Dad rarely talks about work
00:23:07Keep asking!
00:23:09Thompson, Walsh, Crawford, Henderson ring any bells?
00:23:13No
00:23:13Those are all senior executives as it's Sterling Group
00:23:16Even we outsiders know those names
00:23:18How could she not?
00:23:20You all heard it, right?
00:23:21She can't even answer basic questions about the company
00:23:23There's no way she's the Sterling heiress
00:23:27Unbelievable!
00:23:27Trying to impersonate my future step-granddaughter?
00:23:30You bastard must have a death wish!
00:23:36What a waste of my time!
00:23:47How much longer?
00:23:49Sir, there's an accident up ahead
00:23:50We can barely move
00:23:59Sir?
00:24:06$10,000
00:24:07I'm buying your bike
00:24:21Danielle, don't be afraid
00:24:22Daddy's almost there
00:24:24You almost had us fooled
00:24:26You little con artist!
00:24:28She'd say anything to dodge responsibility
00:24:31Typical
00:24:32Like parent, like child
00:24:34This just got worse
00:24:35She could have settled with a payment
00:24:37But now she's impersonated Mr. Sterling's daughter
00:24:39They'll never let her go
00:24:40They say Mr. Sterling cherishes daughter more than anything
00:24:44Impersonating the Sterling heiress
00:24:46That girl is done for
00:24:47You destroyed my gift
00:24:49And furthermore, you had the nerve
00:24:51To impersonate Danielle
00:24:53I'm gonna make sure you never forget this day
00:24:57No!
00:24:58Get it back!
00:25:05No!
00:25:14Mom
00:25:21My necklace
00:25:31Stop crying
00:25:32The necklace is broken
00:25:34That means
00:25:35Mom is really gone
00:25:39Save the sob story
00:25:41Kicking you would be an insult to my shoes
00:25:44It's just a cheap trinket
00:25:46Probably worth about 20 bucks
00:25:48Is that really worth all these tears?
00:25:49The figurine you smashed is worth enough to buy hundreds of thousands of those little charms
00:25:54As if her, whatever, trinkets could ever compare to those gifts
00:25:59I wasn't even going to waste my precious time on you
00:26:02All you had to do was pay for what you did to my mother and apologize
00:26:05That would have been the end of it
00:26:07But look at the mess you've made
00:26:15A $500,000 figurine
00:26:18Destroyed
00:26:26A $3,000,000 necklace
00:26:29A $2,000,000 dress
00:26:34All ruined because of you!
00:26:36The birthday gala starts any minute now
00:26:40How am I supposed to face Richard and Danielle?
00:26:43With empty hands
00:26:44You tell me!
00:26:54You want to get into trouble, old man?
00:26:56Back off!
00:26:57Still trying to play hero for this girl?
00:26:59Ma'am, this is a hospital
00:27:01If this gets out of hand, it won't look good
00:27:03For the hospital or for Sterling Group
00:27:05My mother was knocked down
00:27:07Who's paying for that?
00:27:09My gifts are destroyed
00:27:10Who's covering that?
00:27:12And my time?
00:27:13Who's gonna give it back to me?
00:27:14My wife owns a gift boutique
00:27:16She can have something premium prepared right away
00:27:19You?
00:27:20You think your wife's little shop can provide gifts worthy of the Sterling family?
00:27:25And will also upgrade your mother to a VIP suite with dedicated private care
00:27:29So, perhaps you could go a little easier on the girl?
00:27:33Your wife's bargain big trash
00:27:36Is supposed to be a gift for Mr. Sterling's daughter?
00:27:39My future niece?
00:27:41Don't insult us!
00:27:42VIP suite?
00:27:43My leg hurts!
00:27:44I can't move!
00:27:45Just kick everyone else out and make this damn room the VIP suite!
00:27:49Problem solved!
00:27:50That's not exactly how it works
00:28:01She disrespected my sister and my mom
00:28:03You think I'm just gonna let her off?
00:28:06Ridiculous!
00:28:08Get someone to West Metro Hospital now
00:28:10Find out which room Danielle's is in
00:28:12Right away, Mr. Sterling
00:28:16You made me go through all this trouble
00:28:18I gotta admit, you've got nerve
00:28:20But if I don't teach you a lesson today
00:28:23My name isn't Vanessa Cole
00:28:27Director!
00:28:28Mr. Sterling from Sterling Group!
00:28:29He's on his way here right now!
00:28:32What?
00:28:35I gotta fetch Mr. Sterling in
00:28:40What's Richard doing here?
00:28:42It's obvious
00:28:45Mr. Sterling found out his future mother-in-law was hospitalized and came to visit
00:28:49That's the only explanation
00:28:50He must have picked up Danielle already and came to check on mom
00:28:53The birthday gala is about to start and he still made time to visit mom
00:28:58Sis
00:28:59Mr. Sterling really does care about you
00:29:01He just went to pick up his daughter
00:29:02That means he'll probably bring her along too, right?
00:29:08Vanessa, what about the gifts?
00:29:12You! Go prepare a new set of gifts within one hour
00:29:14Get the best and the most expensive
00:29:19We'll just say the gifts are being delivered separately
00:29:22A gift can be late
00:29:24As long as it's expensive enough, no one will complain
00:29:28Mom, your future son-in-law is coming to see you
00:29:31Mr. Sterling is so thoughtful
00:29:33He really didn't have to come all this way
00:29:35As long as he and Vanessa are happy together, that's all I need
00:29:49Give it back!
00:29:51What a freaking eyesore
00:29:52If you want to cry, go cry somewhere else
00:29:54Let me meet my future stepdaughter first
00:29:56Then I'll deal with you and your father
00:30:01No! No!
00:30:04No!
00:30:06No!
00:30:07You monster!
00:30:10She's lost her mind!
00:30:12Pull her off now!
00:30:14No!
00:30:20Why?
00:30:21Why are you doing this to me?
00:30:23Send this lunaturk to a mental institution!
00:30:26Lock her up and throw away the key!
00:30:29Mr. Sterling, it's the room right ahead
00:30:33Miss Cole, regardless of who she is
00:30:36She's still just a young woman
00:30:37Please
00:30:38A child?
00:30:39Does a child do this?
00:30:44My sister is the future wife of Sterling Group's CEO
00:30:47Interfere again and you're next
00:31:01Dad!
00:31:07Honey!
00:31:10You should have told me you were coming
00:31:15Dad!
00:31:16Sir!
00:31:17I'm Tyler Cole!
00:31:18You're a future brother-in-law
00:31:20Vanessa talks about you all the time
00:31:24Oh my Mr. Sterling!
00:31:27How sweet of you to come all this way
00:31:29Just to visit little old me
00:31:31Honey, you're so busy
00:31:33You really didn't have to come
00:31:34Oh, that girl
00:31:35I don't know where she came from
00:31:37She's been crying and making a scene this whole time
00:31:39Get this girl out of here
00:31:41If she makes one more sound
00:31:43I'll have her mouth sewn shut
00:31:45Dad!
00:31:46They are bullying me!
00:31:52Get off my daughter
00:31:54Oh, let her go
00:31:55Quick, let her go
00:32:00Dad
00:32:03Are you feeling alright?
00:32:05Danielle, it's okay
00:32:06Daddy's here now
00:32:08Tell me
00:32:10What happened?
00:32:11I helped her because she fell down
00:32:14And she accused me of knocking her over
00:32:16And these two of them
00:32:18They swore at me and hit me
00:32:20And they broke the necklace mom left me
00:32:23Danielle, sweetie
00:32:24I thought you were someone else
00:32:26I had no idea it was you
00:32:28Yeah
00:32:28This
00:32:29We're all family here, right?
00:32:31Why didn't you say something earlier?
00:32:33It's all just a big misunderstanding
00:32:35I tried to tell you multiple times
00:32:38None of you would listen
00:32:40Wow
00:32:42Showtime
00:32:43She messed with Richard Sterling's daughter
00:32:45He's not gonna let this slide
00:32:47Vanessa's position as the future Mrs. Sterling
00:32:51Gone
00:32:53Danielle, sweetie
00:32:54Grandma's old and senile
00:32:56I'm just an elderly woman from the countryside
00:33:00I don't know any better
00:33:02Please don't hold it against me
00:33:05Scamming people wasn't enough for you
00:33:06You had to bully my daughter, too
00:33:11Mr. Sterling
00:33:12If I had known she was your daughter
00:33:14You could have killed me before I dare
00:33:17And if she weren't my daughter
00:33:18Did that make it okay to treat someone like this?
00:33:21Honey, this is all a misunderstanding
00:33:24I've always treated Danielle like my own
00:33:26Look, I even prepared gifts for her
00:33:28My dear brother-in-law
00:33:30This was just
00:33:32You know
00:33:32A comedy of errors
00:33:34We're all family here
00:33:36And
00:33:37We didn't really lay a hand on
00:33:39Shut up!
00:33:40Vanny, I was just trying to help
00:33:42Get out of my sight!
00:33:46Honey, my mom and my brother were so rude
00:33:48I'll talk to them
00:33:50I promise
00:33:50We've been together for three years
00:33:52Please, don't let this ruin our-
00:33:54Dad!
00:33:55She smashed mom's necklace
00:33:57And she threw the shatters out the window
00:33:59Vanessa Cole
00:34:02You've really outdone yourself
00:34:07I didn't know that necklace was so important
00:34:09What are you standing around for?
00:34:11Go find that necklace
00:34:12If you come back empty-handed
00:34:13You're all fired
00:34:16Honey, if I had known who she was
00:34:18I never would have made such a terrible mistake
00:34:20Forget it
00:34:20You've been working hard
00:34:22You must be tired
00:34:24Honey, you forgive me?
00:34:27We're done
00:34:31Mr. Sterling
00:34:32Mom, what are you doing?
00:34:34Mr. Sterling, you can't break up with Vanessa
00:34:39Please
00:34:39I'm begging you
00:34:41Vanessa is a good girl
00:34:43She truly loves you
00:34:44This is all my fault
00:34:46I ruined everything
00:34:48Don't punish her for my mistakes
00:34:50I'll do anything
00:34:51It's all my fault
00:34:53Everything is my fault
00:34:54Please, Mr. Sterling
00:34:55Mom, stop
00:34:57Please, I'm begging you
00:34:58Stop
00:35:02Are you really going to be this heartless?
00:35:05I believed you were kind
00:35:06It never occurred to me that you could be this cruel
00:35:08I will never let you become Danielle's stepmother
00:35:11I made a mistake and I'll correct it
00:35:15All I need is a chance
00:35:16You know better than anyone
00:35:19Danielle is my bottom line
00:35:21What you did today is definitely unforgivable
00:35:25I didn't know she was Danielle
00:35:28If I weren't dad's daughter
00:35:30Would you have just kept bullying me?
00:35:33Without even letting me explain?
00:35:35Niece, of course not
00:35:37Those ordinary people
00:35:39Can't compare to you
00:35:40Enough!
00:35:44Whatever we had
00:35:45It ends here
00:35:47I hope you learn your lesson
00:35:49And never torture people
00:35:50Who can't fight back again
00:35:52Richard!
00:35:53You think you can just dump me
00:35:55At your own will?
00:35:56You think there's nothing
00:35:57I can do about it for real?
00:35:58No
00:36:01Richard, don't be so cold-blooded
00:36:03Let's just pretend
00:36:04That nothing happened today
00:36:06You stay as Mr. Sterling
00:36:08And if I say no
00:36:10You think the only thing
00:36:11I've been doing
00:36:11These past three years
00:36:12Is playing house with you?
00:36:18Darling
00:36:20I need your help
00:36:21With Richard Sterling around
00:36:23You still need me?
00:36:24He's exactly the one
00:36:25I need you to deal with
00:36:26Let's go
00:36:27It's time
00:36:32Vanessa, I'm here
00:36:33Marcus
00:36:34What are you doing here?
00:36:36Mr. Sterling
00:36:37As busy as you are
00:36:38You still find time
00:36:39For domestic drama?
00:36:40If you have something to say
00:36:42Easy, easy
00:36:43No need to get worked up
00:36:45I'm just here to advise you
00:36:48Not to break things off
00:36:50With Miss Cole
00:36:51My personal life
00:36:52Is none of your concern
00:36:54A man who abandons
00:36:56His commitment so easily
00:36:57Can he really be trusted
00:36:59To lead Sterling group?
00:37:00Think carefully Mr. Sterling
00:37:02Are you threatening me?
00:37:04Wouldn't dream of it
00:37:05I'm simply reminding you
00:37:07If the founder of Sterling group
00:37:10Gets voted out by his own board
00:37:12Well that's
00:37:13Not exactly good press
00:37:14Is it?
00:37:22How long has this been going on
00:37:24Between you two?
00:37:25I'm not one of those stupid women
00:37:26Who can't live without their man
00:37:27Vanessa Cole
00:37:31Marcus and I were together
00:37:32Long before I ever met you
00:37:33So technically Richard
00:37:35You were the one
00:37:36Who got in the middle
00:37:37I was kind enough
00:37:38To make you
00:37:39The main act
00:37:40And now you're blaming me?
00:37:41Absolutely shameless
00:37:43I get what I want
00:37:45Everything else is irrelevant
00:37:48Henceforth
00:37:48You'll get nothing
00:37:49Hold on
00:37:50Every senior executive
00:37:52And board member
00:37:53At Sterling group
00:37:54I've had them wrapped
00:37:55Around my finger
00:37:56And I've placed plenty of loyalists
00:37:58Who take orders
00:37:58Only from me
00:37:59Right now at Sterling group
00:38:01My word
00:38:02Carries more weight
00:38:04Than yours
00:38:04Mr. Sterling
00:38:05Vanny you're incredible
00:38:07Even I couldn't pull that off
00:38:08You idiot
00:38:09Ow
00:38:09If you can't say something useful
00:38:11Shut your mouth
00:38:14Richard Sterling
00:38:15I never liked you
00:38:16Since way back
00:38:17So what if you're
00:38:18The great Mr. Sterling
00:38:19Look at you
00:38:20Now
00:38:21My daughter's got you
00:38:22Right under her wheel
00:38:24Richard
00:38:24You have two choices now
00:38:26Option one
00:38:27Pretend that nothing
00:38:29Happened today
00:38:29And we get married
00:38:30As planned
00:38:31Option two
00:38:33You get away
00:38:34From Sterling group
00:38:34Let Marcus take over
00:38:36As CEO
00:38:36And I run things
00:38:37From behind the scenes
00:38:42Two options
00:38:43Pick one
00:38:45Now
00:38:48What if I pick neither
00:38:52Then don't blame me
00:38:53For what happens next
00:39:00Call an emergency board meeting
00:39:02Effective immediately
00:39:04Strip Richard Sterling
00:39:05Of all executive authority
00:39:09Mr. Sterling
00:39:10By tomorrow morning
00:39:11You will resign
00:39:12From the CEO position
00:39:13Voluntarily
00:39:14Non-negotiable
00:39:15Richard
00:39:16Oh Richard
00:39:17I'm giving you
00:39:19A graceful exit
00:39:20Why do you insist
00:39:21On making this ugly
00:39:24I thought the great
00:39:25Richard Sterling
00:39:26Was supposed to be
00:39:27Some big shot
00:39:30Turns out
00:39:31He's nothing special
00:39:32After all
00:39:33Mom
00:39:34Don't say that
00:39:35No matter how
00:39:36Great Richard is
00:39:37He still ends up
00:39:38Under my sister's thumb
00:39:39Vanessa
00:39:40If you had
00:39:41Kind of power
00:39:42All along
00:39:43Why did you put up
00:39:45With him
00:39:45Why waste your time
00:39:47Taking care
00:39:48Of his daughter
00:39:48Exactly
00:39:50Vanny
00:39:50Why not just
00:39:51Take Sterling down
00:39:52And let our
00:39:54Family
00:39:55Take over
00:39:56Completely
00:39:56Richard
00:39:57Is a business genius
00:39:59He's my money
00:40:00He's my money
00:40:00Making machine
00:40:01And you think
00:40:02You can replace him
00:40:03If I hadn't been
00:40:05Forced into a corner
00:40:06I never would have
00:40:06Shown my hand
00:40:08Richard
00:40:09If you're willing
00:40:10To apologize to me
00:40:11Right now
00:40:12For old time's sake
00:40:14I'll let this go
00:40:16I might even arrange
00:40:17A nice position
00:40:18For you
00:40:18At Sterling Group
00:40:20Don't you think
00:40:21You're celebrating
00:40:22A little too early
00:40:26I built Sterling Group
00:40:28From the ground up
00:40:30You think
00:40:31You can just
00:40:31Take it from me
00:40:32Like this
00:40:33It seems
00:40:34Mr. Sterling
00:40:35Is
00:40:38Not cooperating
00:40:39Letting you resign
00:40:40Voluntarily
00:40:41Was me being
00:40:42Generous
00:40:43Don't push your luck
00:40:44Richard
00:40:44There's no coming back
00:40:47Since you refuse
00:40:48To go quietly
00:40:48Don't blame me
00:40:50For being ruthless
00:40:52This is a copy
00:40:53A document
00:40:54The board prepared
00:40:54In advance
00:40:55Richard
00:40:56Whether you resign
00:40:58Or not
00:40:58I can replace you
00:40:59Anytime I want
00:41:01Marcus
00:41:02Once you sign this
00:41:03You'll be the new
00:41:04CEO of Sterling Group
00:41:11Congratulations
00:41:11Mr. Webb
00:41:15Sweetheart
00:41:16If you want
00:41:18I'll divorce my wife today
00:41:20And make you
00:41:21The new CEO's wife
00:41:23Vanny
00:41:24You're awesome
00:41:26The Cole family's future
00:41:28Is all on you
00:41:29Richard Sterling
00:41:31It's time we settled
00:41:32Our old score
00:41:34Your daughter
00:41:35Knocked me down
00:41:36It is not over yet
00:41:39Dad
00:41:40Dad
00:41:40What are we going to do
00:41:43Richard
00:41:43You're just a nobody
00:41:44Now
00:41:45Stop acting like
00:41:46You're still somebody
00:41:48Pay up
00:41:50Or I'll make you
00:41:51Regret it
00:41:56You parasites
00:41:57All you know
00:41:59Is scheming
00:41:59And backstabbing
00:42:00You don't even understand
00:42:02How a company
00:42:02Actually operates
00:42:03So what
00:42:05Sterling Group
00:42:05Is ours now
00:42:08All we have to do
00:42:09Is hire people
00:42:10To do the work
00:42:10While we sit back
00:42:11And count the money
00:42:14Freeze every single
00:42:16Account tied to
00:42:16Sterling Group
00:42:17All of them
00:42:18Immediately
00:42:24Richard are you kidding me
00:42:26You're not even
00:42:27The CEO anymore
00:42:28Sterling Group's money
00:42:30Can be frozen
00:42:30Just cause you say so
00:42:32What
00:42:32You think you own the bank
00:42:35Danielle
00:42:36Let daddy show you
00:42:37A clown show
00:42:39Vanessa
00:42:40He's not bluffing
00:42:41Is he
00:42:41What if he actually
00:42:42Has a backup plan
00:42:44Relax
00:42:45He's got nothing left
00:42:50Hello
00:42:51What
00:42:51All the company funds
00:42:53Have been frozen
00:42:53How is that possible
00:42:55What happened
00:42:55Mr. Sterling
00:42:57Please
00:42:57Release the funds
00:42:59I'm the CEO now
00:43:00Once the funding chain
00:43:01Ruptures
00:43:01All the company's
00:43:02Debt falls on me
00:43:03Richard
00:43:04That's Sterling Group's money
00:43:06You're no longer
00:43:07Part of Sterling Group
00:43:08You have no right
00:43:09To freeze those accounts
00:43:10Sterling Group
00:43:10Is a private company
00:43:11Every cent
00:43:12Of its operating capital
00:43:13Sits in my personal accounts
00:43:15Since I'm no longer
00:43:16Part of Sterling Group
00:43:17Why should I keep
00:43:18Funding it for you
00:43:19Mr. Sterling
00:43:20I was wrong
00:43:21I don't want to be
00:43:22CEO anymore
00:43:24Take the company
00:43:25Back
00:43:25Please
00:43:27Sterling Group
00:43:28Is this rotten
00:43:28From the inside out
00:43:30The CEO position
00:43:31Is all yours
00:43:33Consider it a gift
00:43:34You useless coward
00:43:35Sterling Group
00:43:37Is a massive enterprise
00:43:38So what if
00:43:38The funding chain
00:43:39Ruptures
00:43:40Just take out a loan
00:43:41Borrow a few million
00:43:42What are you so afraid of
00:43:49Easy for you to say
00:43:50Millions in debt
00:43:51You take it for me
00:43:52You're the CEO
00:43:53Of Sterling Group now
00:43:54That's your duty
00:43:55To hell with being
00:43:55Fucking CEO
00:43:56You forced this damn
00:43:57Position on me
00:43:58Just so I take the fall
00:43:59For you
00:43:59I'm done
00:43:59Marcus
00:44:00I have plenty of
00:44:01Photos of us together
00:44:02You want me to
00:44:03Lease them all
00:44:05I'm about to lose
00:44:06Everything
00:44:06Fuck the reputation
00:44:07Who cares
00:44:09Go ahead
00:44:10Release them all
00:44:11If I'm going down
00:44:12I gotta take you
00:44:13With me
00:44:16Richard
00:44:17Please
00:44:18Don't do this to me
00:44:20I'm begging you
00:44:21Mr. Sterling
00:44:22I've served this company
00:44:23For years
00:44:24Even if I have no merit
00:44:25At least recognize
00:44:26My diligence
00:44:27Please
00:44:28Give me one more chance
00:44:32Danielle
00:44:32Let daddy teach you
00:44:34A lesson
00:44:35Showing mercy
00:44:36To people like this
00:44:36Is nothing but
00:44:37Cruelty to yourself
00:44:39Richard
00:44:42Mr. Sterling
00:44:47This is all
00:44:48Your fault
00:44:49Look at what
00:44:50You've done
00:44:56How dare you
00:44:58Vanessa
00:44:58What on earth
00:44:59Just happened
00:45:00It's all because
00:45:01Of you
00:45:02You had ruined
00:45:03My perfect future
00:45:04Oh lord
00:45:05Why is my life
00:45:06So miserable
00:45:07From now on
00:45:08Deal with your own
00:45:09Problems by yourself
00:45:10Stop dragging me
00:45:11Into your goddamn mess
00:45:14Richard Sterling
00:45:15I will make you
00:45:17Regret this
00:45:17I swear
00:45:25I'm sorry Danielle
00:45:26I thought Vanessa
00:45:27Would be like your mom
00:45:28Kind
00:45:29Gentle
00:45:29I never thought
00:45:30She and those people
00:45:31Would hurt you like this
00:45:33It's okay dad
00:45:34It's over now
00:45:35And at least we found out
00:45:36Who she really is
00:45:36Before it was too late
00:45:37Right
00:45:39Danielle you are
00:45:40The Sterling's heiress
00:45:41Sometimes you need
00:45:42To carry yourself
00:45:43Like one
00:45:43Why are you suddenly
00:45:44Saying this dad
00:45:45Because people aware
00:45:47Of who you are
00:45:48Don't dare touch you
00:45:51Mom once told me
00:45:52That the Sterling family's
00:45:53Success was built
00:45:53On the trust
00:45:54Of ordinary people
00:45:55She said I should
00:45:56Never forget
00:45:56Where we came from
00:46:00I would listen to mom
00:46:01Stay grounded
00:46:02Like a normal girl
00:46:11I thought once
00:46:12You were with
00:46:13Richard Sterling
00:46:13You'd forget all
00:46:15About an old friend
00:46:16Like me
00:46:17I'm sorry
00:46:21Don't apologize
00:46:22You didn't want me
00:46:23And I kept chasing
00:46:24That's on me
00:46:25I have nowhere else
00:46:26To turn
00:46:26You're the last one
00:46:27I can come to
00:46:29After what Richard
00:46:30Did to me
00:46:32You gotta help me
00:46:33Get even
00:46:34Help me take him down
00:46:37And I'll do
00:46:37Anything you want
00:46:40Anything
00:47:14Got it
00:47:15I'm on my way
00:47:17Danielle
00:47:18Something came up
00:47:19That I need to handle
00:47:20Go ahead into the ballroom
00:47:21I'll be right back
00:47:22I'll be back before
00:47:23You know it
00:47:44Have you ever seen
00:47:45Mr. Sterling's daughter
00:47:47I heard she's gorgeous
00:47:49Whatever
00:47:49If you can get close to her
00:47:50You get close to Mr. Sterling
00:47:51Exactly
00:47:52The Sterling family
00:47:53Is the wealthiest
00:47:54In the state
00:47:54Just lionize them
00:47:55Good
00:47:56And you're set for life
00:48:09I'm so sorry
00:48:12That was completely
00:48:14My fault
00:48:14Where did you
00:48:16Crawl in from?
00:48:19Where did you crawl in from?
00:48:21Do you have any idea
00:48:22How much this dress costs?
00:48:23Can you even afford
00:48:24To replace it?
00:48:25I'm really sorry
00:48:26I can have the dress
00:48:27Dry cleaned for you
00:48:28Dry cleaned?
00:48:29You think this is some
00:48:30Off the rack bargain?
00:48:32This is a limited edition
00:48:34Haute couture piece
00:48:36You're not leaving today
00:48:37Unless you buy me a new one
00:48:39Isn't that the daughter
00:48:40From the Whitmore family?
00:48:42That girl is in trouble
00:48:43Monica is notorious
00:48:45For being difficult
00:48:46Wait for the show
00:48:47I'm happy to compensate you
00:48:49But that dress isn't
00:48:50A limited edition
00:48:51Haute couture piece
00:48:51It's just a knockoff
00:48:59What do you know
00:49:00About fashion?
00:49:02It was personally designed
00:49:03For me
00:49:03And you dare call it
00:49:05A knockoff?
00:49:06This design is by
00:49:07Alexandro Ferretti
00:49:08From Milan
00:49:08One of a kind
00:49:09In the world
00:49:10And that one of a kind
00:49:11Piece is hanging
00:49:12In my closet right now
00:49:13So yes
00:49:14I know exactly
00:49:15What I'm talking about
00:49:16Oh please
00:49:16You show up to a gala
00:49:18In your poor school uniform
00:49:20And you're claiming
00:49:20You own a one of a kind
00:49:21Ferrell already
00:49:22That's literally
00:49:23The funniest thing
00:49:23I've heard all night
00:49:24Believe it or not
00:49:25I'm not going to waste
00:49:26My time arguing with you
00:49:33What else?
00:49:34Shh
00:49:35You don't want to pay?
00:49:37Fine
00:49:37Get on your knees
00:49:38And apologize
00:49:39Then maybe I'll be
00:49:40Generous enough
00:49:41To let you off
00:49:47Well, well
00:49:49Isn't she from the
00:49:50Class next of ours?
00:49:52Brandon?
00:49:53You know her?
00:49:54Wouldn't say I know her
00:49:55She's the first place
00:49:56In our grade
00:49:57What's her name again?
00:49:58I don't recall
00:49:59So what?
00:50:00She'll end up working
00:50:01For people like us anyway
00:50:02Monica
00:50:03Even the fortune
00:50:04Of her family
00:50:04Probably can't afford
00:50:05A single thread
00:50:06On your dress
00:50:06Making her pay for it
00:50:08She couldn't do it
00:50:08In a lifetime
00:50:09Exactly
00:50:10Messing with people
00:50:11Like her is beneath us
00:50:13Just kick her out
00:50:14Count yourself lucky today
00:50:16This is a birthday gala
00:50:17For the Sterling heiress
00:50:19Not a place for someone
00:50:20Like you
00:50:20Get out
00:50:21What makes you think
00:50:22I don't belong here?
00:50:24Pardon?
00:50:25This is Brandon Harper
00:50:26Heir to the Harper Group
00:50:28This is Jessica Cole
00:50:30Niece of Mr. Sterling's
00:50:32Future wife
00:50:32And I'm Monica Whitmore
00:50:35Daughter of Whitmore Group
00:50:36CFO
00:50:37We represent the most
00:50:38Powerful families
00:50:40In this state
00:50:40And you?
00:50:41A nobody in school uniform?
00:50:43What makes you belong here?
00:50:47Because this is my birthday party
00:50:56Did all that studying fry your brain?
00:50:59Do you even know who tonight's guest of honor actually is?
00:51:02Don't waste your breath on this ridiculous clown
00:51:05How could she possibly know?
00:51:06She's just embarrassed that we called her out
00:51:08So she's making things up to save face
00:51:11Alright, alright
00:51:11We won't make this difficult
00:51:13If you still want to stay at this party, fine
00:51:14Show us what you brought
00:51:16Your gift for the Sterling Airmus, obviously
00:51:18Don't tell me you came here empty-handed
00:51:20Just to free load on those food and drinks
00:51:22It's my own birthday party
00:51:24Why would I bring myself a gift?
00:51:28Pathetic
00:51:29Still staying in character
00:51:31What makes you so sure I'm pretending?
00:51:33Seriously?
00:51:34I can prove you're a fraud
00:51:36With just a few random questions
00:51:37Go ahead
00:51:38Do you know how much
00:51:40Is the tasting menu
00:51:41At the most exclusive
00:51:42Five-star restaurant in the state?
00:51:43I usually just eat home-cooked meals
00:51:47Have you ever booked out a concert hall
00:51:49For a private performance
00:51:50By a world-class pianist?
00:51:52Fine
00:51:53Let me ask you something simpler
00:51:54Have you ever been to a yacht party?
00:51:56I'm not interested in that sort of thing
00:52:01Three questions
00:52:03And you couldn't even answer a single one
00:52:05Still gonna claim you're not a fraud?
00:52:08Why would I need to know any of those things?
00:52:10You wouldn't get it
00:52:12That's the bare minimum
00:52:13Of how the wealthy live
00:52:15Is that so?
00:52:17Well then
00:52:17I have a few questions for you
00:52:23Do you know the practical applications of calculus
00:52:25Or the principles behind the photo-electroc effect?
00:52:28Okay, how about this
00:52:29Do you know what a swath analysis is?
00:52:31Or the smart framework?
00:52:33Those are basic management concepts
00:52:34Didn't your private tutors cover that?
00:52:36What's the point of learning any of that?
00:52:39So all you know is how to eat, drink, and party
00:52:44Not a single useful thing in your heads
00:52:49What's so funny?
00:52:50How adorable
00:52:51You think we need to know any of that?
00:52:53That's stuff for people like you to worry about
00:52:55Because you're the ones who'll be working for us
00:52:56Serving us
00:52:57We were born to enjoy life
00:52:59If we need someone, we write a check and hire them
00:53:01Why would we bother with any of that?
00:53:03I thought she was at gonna say something impressive
00:53:05Turns out she's just a joke
00:53:07My dad once told me that
00:53:08Shirt sleeves to shirt sleeves in three generations
00:53:10I never understood what he meant
00:53:12Until I met the three of you
00:53:14What's that supposed to mean?
00:53:15Other than frittling away your parents' money
00:53:17What else can you actually do?
00:53:20How dare you speak to me like that?
00:53:22You clearly don't know your place
00:53:23We gave you a chance and you threw it in our faces
00:53:26What's wrong?
00:53:28Did I hit a nerve?
00:53:38You have no idea who you're messing with
00:53:40Keep this up and we'll make sure you never show your face anywhere again
00:53:43Remember this next time
00:53:45When you talk to people like us
00:53:46Show some respect
00:53:50Get your ass in the ladies room
00:53:52Kneel by the toilet and apologize
00:53:54Or I'll make sure you never have a peaceful day again
00:53:57Miss Whitmore, please
00:53:58Give the girl a break
00:54:00She's just a kid
00:54:01Mind your own business
00:54:04Don't get involved
00:54:05Those three come from powerful families
00:54:06We can't afford to cross them
00:54:08You know
00:54:08I heard from kids at school that
00:54:10You don't even have a mother
00:54:11No wonder you turned out like this
00:54:14No manners at all
00:54:15A motherless nobody
00:54:17Acting like a rabid dog
00:54:19What's wrong?
00:54:21Did we hit a nerve?
00:54:23Maybe you don't have a father either
00:54:25That would explain no one's here to stop you from wandering into places you don't belong
00:54:32That's enough!
00:54:33All of you!
00:54:34Stop!
00:54:40Monica, why are you lowering yourself to this level?
00:54:43Dad, she started it!
00:54:45If a stray dog bites you, are you going to bite it back?
00:54:48Getting tangled up with someone like her only drags you down
00:54:51Okay
00:54:53You must be some security guard's daughter
00:54:56This is a private event for distinguished guests
00:54:59It's not the place for you
00:55:02Take the money and get out
00:55:04Don't be an eyesore
00:55:06Tonight is your chance to get close to the Sterling airgress
00:55:09Seize it properly
00:55:10Don't worry, Mr. Whitmore
00:55:11Once my aunt marries Mr. Sterling
00:55:13I'll be the her cousin
00:55:15With me as the bridge
00:55:16Monica and the Sterling heiress
00:55:18We'll be best friends in no time
00:55:19Put in a good word for me too
00:55:21When I'm older, I'll propose to the Sterling heiress
00:55:23Then the Harper family and the Sterling family can join forces
00:55:27Mr. Sterling will be here shortly
00:55:29I was just promoted to CFO
00:55:31Keep your heads down and behave
00:55:34I heard Danielle Sterling is the most elegant air mess in the state
00:55:37I can't wait to meet her
00:55:38It would be amazing if we could be friends
00:55:44Why are you still here?
00:55:45Get out!
00:55:49If you don't want to deal with me
00:55:51Then let's just stay out of each other's way
00:55:53That's it
00:55:54Did you not hear what Mr. Whitmore just said?
00:55:56He gave you an easy way out
00:55:58Don't be ungrateful
00:55:59Take your charity money and get lost
00:56:02If you upset the Sterling airgress tonight
00:56:04Can you handle the consequences?
00:56:06It's you who should leave right away
00:56:07This is my birthday party
00:56:09And you're not welcome
00:56:11Still keeping up this act?
00:56:13Unbelievable
00:56:20Let me handle this
00:56:25You're dead
00:56:26You hear me?
00:56:28Dead!
00:56:35Ladies and gentlemen
00:56:36Mr. Sterling has arrived
00:56:51I told you Mr. Sterling was coming
00:56:53And you're still making trouble?
00:56:55Mr. Whitmore
00:56:56This isn't Monica's fault
00:56:58That girl wouldn't back off
00:56:59She kept provoking Monica
00:57:03Mr. Sterling
00:57:04That girl somehow snuck into the gala
00:57:07I'll have her removed immediately
00:57:08Get out of here!
00:57:10Now!
00:57:14This is your daughter?
00:57:15Yes sir
00:57:16My daughter
00:57:17Monica
00:57:17Monica
00:57:18Say hello to Mr. Sterling
00:57:20Hello Mr. Sterling
00:57:22Um, where's the birthday girl?
00:57:24Didn't she come with you?
00:57:25And you are?
00:57:26Mr. Sterling
00:57:27My father is the CEO of Harper Group
00:57:29He's overseas on business
00:57:31And sent me to attend
00:57:32Danielle's birthday gala on his behalf
00:57:33I'm Vanessa Cole's niece
00:57:35Once you and my aunt get married
00:57:37You'll be my uncle
00:57:39Your families are done
00:57:40All three of them
00:57:41And there will be no coming back
00:57:44Mr. Sterling
00:57:45What do you mean by that?
00:57:53Danielle
00:57:54Dad!
00:57:56Dad!
00:58:04Mr. Sterling
00:58:06Are you sure you haven't made a mistake?
00:58:08She
00:58:09She can't possibly be the heiress
00:58:13I think I know my own daughter
00:58:15No, no
00:58:16No, Mr. Sterling
00:58:17That's not what I meant
00:58:18I just
00:58:19I just thought
00:58:21Shut your mouth!
00:58:25Mr. Sterling
00:58:26It's just kids being kids
00:58:27You know how they are
00:58:28Surely there's no need to
00:58:30Take it seriously
00:58:31The fault lies with how you raised her
00:58:35The Whitmore family is done for
00:58:38They just crossed Mr. Sterling's daughter
00:58:42The Harpers and the Coles are going down too
00:58:44Mr. Sterling said he'd deal with all three families
00:58:48Dad, I told you
00:58:49I don't like big events like this
00:58:51Everyone here is just trying to use my birthday to get something
00:58:54Not a single person came because they actually care
00:58:58You're right
00:58:58I should have known better
00:59:00I promise
00:59:01I'll never let you go through something like this again
00:59:03Miss Sterling
00:59:04I'm so sorry that I was out of line
00:59:06I lost my temper
00:59:07Here
00:59:09Whatever I did to you
00:59:10You can do it back to me
00:59:11Ten times over
00:59:12A hundred times over
00:59:13As long as it makes you feel better
00:59:17Miss Sterling
00:59:18We all prepared generous birthday gifts for you
00:59:20Please
00:59:21For the sake of our good intentions
00:59:22Don't hold this against us
00:59:24Miss Sterling
00:59:25We're family
00:59:25My aunt is your future step
00:59:28Not anymore
00:59:30Vanessa Cole was having affairs
00:59:32With every board member and executive
00:59:34At Sterling Group
00:59:35Including the current CFO
00:59:37Raymond Whittler
00:59:38A woman like that has no place in my life
00:59:41Mr. Mr. Sterling
00:59:42That's not true
00:59:43I swear
00:59:46Danielle I made you a promise
00:59:52Anyone who dares lay a hand on my daughter can't get away with it
00:59:59This is all your fault
01:00:00I told you both to back off
01:00:02But you wouldn't listen
01:00:04Mr. Sterling
01:00:05Miss Sterling
01:00:06This has nothing to do with me
01:00:07I was dragged into it by these two
01:00:09That's a lie
01:00:10You were the one showing off in front of Monica
01:00:12You were the one who grabbed her by the throat
01:00:14If you and Brandon Hidden kept egging me on
01:00:16I never would have gone that far
01:00:17Don't twist things
01:00:18You were the one who started it
01:00:20We were just backing you up
01:00:21Did I ask for your help?
01:00:23Mind your own business
01:00:24Don't forget
01:00:25Your father's position at Sterling Group
01:00:27Only exists because my aunt has been protecting your family
01:00:30Don't you dare mention your aunt to me
01:00:32My position as CFO was earned through Mr. Sterling's recognition and my own ability
01:00:38It has nothing to do with that woman
01:00:41There's one more thing I forgot to mention
01:00:43I've resigned from all positions at Sterling Group
01:00:46The person actually running things behind the Sayers now is Vanessa Cole
01:00:49Richard broke things off with Vanessa
01:00:51But handed Sterling Group over to her
01:00:53That doesn't make sense
01:00:55The power in our state is shifting
01:00:56We'd better pick the right side
01:00:58Jessica, I've actually always had tremendous respect for your aunt
01:01:03Like I thinks not until it few well
01:01:06Jessica, I was just joking earlier
01:01:08Don't take it seriously
01:01:09Yeah, we're best friends
01:01:11Friends mess around sometimes, right?
01:01:14Since you're no longer the chairman of Sterling Group
01:01:17There are certain things I should say plainly
01:01:23Go on
01:01:23Without Sterling Group behind you, Richard
01:01:25You're nothing!
01:01:28And?
01:01:29Everyone in this room is somebody
01:01:32You no longer belong here
01:01:35Don't you think you're getting ahead of yourself?
01:01:37You've been in the game long enough to know
01:01:38A man without money or power is worth less than the dirt on someone's shoe
01:01:43Richard, you nearly ruined my life tonight
01:01:45I'll make sure my father teaches you a good lesson
01:01:48You tried to ruin my friendship with Jessica?
01:01:51Get down and apologize to us right now!
01:01:54No wonder my aunt chose to leave you
01:01:56Look at you now
01:01:57You're not even worthy of carrying her shoes
01:02:00You're all blind fools!
01:02:02Sterling Group is nothing but a fraction of Mr. Sterling's portfolio
01:02:05Mr. Sterling also controls Meridian Bank
01:02:08Summit Holdings
01:02:09Ironclat Mining
01:02:11And dozens of other enterprises and organizations across the globe
01:02:14If his total wealth were made public
01:02:17He would absolutely be the richest man in the world
01:02:20Some of those companies
01:02:21They're even bigger than Sterling Group
01:02:23Multinational corporations
01:02:24We've been looking at only our field
01:02:27We only saw a fraction of the picture and thought we understood everything
01:02:30Sterling Group's internal corruption is beyond saving
01:02:32To me, it's nothing more than a chess piece I've already discarded
01:02:36Mr. Sterling, please!
01:02:38I'm begging you
01:02:39Mr. Sterling, I was wrong
01:02:40Punish me, just me
01:02:42Please leave the Harper family out of this
01:02:44Ms. Sterling, we truly know we were wrong, please!
01:02:47Ms. Sterling, ask your father to have mercy on us!
01:02:50If I let you off the hook
01:02:52You'll just do the same thing to someone else who can't fight back
01:03:03Follow Sterling
01:03:09Dad, from now on
01:03:11Let's just skip my birthday altogether
01:03:16I'm sorry
01:03:17I never expected to turn out this way
01:03:20I'm not blaming you
01:03:21I just don't like being around people who use my birthday to get what they want
01:03:26Danielle, I promise you
01:03:27This will never happen again
01:03:34What is it?
01:03:35Danielle, I won't throw any more big parties
01:03:38But your birthday still has to be celebrated
01:03:40From now on, I'll celebrate your birthday with you
01:03:43Just us two
01:03:45No strangers, no nonsense
01:03:47Wait here for a second
01:03:48I had a cake ordered from this shop
01:03:50Let me go pick it up
01:04:01Hey there, little niece
01:04:03Waiting for your uncle?
01:04:04You!
01:04:05Dad!
01:04:07Dad!
01:04:09Dad!
01:04:10Dad!
01:04:11Dad!
01:04:12Dad!
01:04:13Dad!
01:04:14Dad!
01:04:15Dad!
01:04:17Dad!
01:04:17Dad!
01:04:18Dad!
01:04:25Dad!
01:04:26Dad!
01:04:32Dad!
01:04:34Dad!
01:04:43Dad!
01:04:44Dad!
01:04:46Dad!
01:04:47Dad!
01:04:47Dad!
01:04:48Dad!
01:04:48Dad!
01:04:49Dad!
01:04:49Dad!
01:04:50Dad!
01:04:51Dad!
01:04:51please. Victor, what have you done? Victor, I asked you to deal with Richard, not to kidnap his
01:05:01daughter. Kidnap? I simply led the young lady over for a cup of tea. Richard has connections
01:05:06everywhere. If he brings in law enforcement, we're all finished. Vanessa, we've known each
01:05:12other since grade school. All these years, no matter which man you chose, I've always been
01:05:18there for you, without a single complaint, right? Victor, why are you bringing this up
01:05:24now? I never forced you to do anything. I'm just saying, no matter what, I'll always have
01:05:30your back. I brought his daughter here to create an opportunity, to force Richard to sit down
01:05:34and have a proper conversation with you. But... Trust me, after tonight, you'll be Mrs. Sterling.
01:05:44Victor, it's Richard!
01:05:51Where have you taken my daughter?
01:05:53Dad, save me!
01:05:55Danielle, don't be afraid. Daddy's coming right now. Mr. Sterling, what an honor.
01:05:59I've admired you for a long time.
01:06:01Who are you? Let my daughter go, or you'll regret this.
01:06:05Relax, Mr. Sterling. I simply wanted to invite you over for a chat.
01:06:10What will it take for you to let her go? I'll send someone to bring you here, but let me
01:06:15be
01:06:16clear up front. Come alone. If you bring anyone else, or contact law enforcement.
01:06:22I can't guarantee your daughter's safety.
01:06:25Fine. You have my word.
01:06:29Sir, if you go alone, both you and the young miss could be in danger.
01:06:32Their target is me. Only if I go alone, will they release Danielle.
01:06:40Check your phone. Do exactly as I've instructed. Understood, sir.
01:06:47Mr. Sterling, please, get in.
01:06:59Victor, he's here.
01:07:07Danielle, did they hurt you?
01:07:13Mr. Sterling, so glad you could finally join us. Say what you need to say.
01:07:20No need to rush, Mr. Sterling.
01:07:23Relax. I'm not going to make things difficult.
01:07:25I've always had great respect for you, Mr. Sterling.
01:07:28It's just that you're such a busy man, getting a face-to-face meeting wasn't exactly easy.
01:07:32So I had to get creative.
01:07:39You own a mine on the south side of town.
01:07:42Currently, you only do extraction and raw sales.
01:07:44I run a refinery operation that could partner with your mine perfectly.
01:07:48I'd be honored if you'd consider the collaboration.
01:07:51Signing with you would break faith with my existing partners.
01:07:55Why don't you take a look at my sincerity first?
01:08:12Victor, what are you doing?
01:08:17Mom!
01:08:21Victor!
01:08:22You'd better, you'd better explain yourself right now!
01:08:27Ah!
01:08:29You really thought I was your lapdog, didn't you?
01:08:31All these years, I treated you well because you moved up the social ladder.
01:08:36You were useful to me!
01:08:37You've been lying to me this whole time!
01:08:42Mr. Sterling, this woman has cheated on you so many times and she tried to use me to destroy you.
01:08:48Today, I present them to you as a gift.
01:08:51Consider it my sincerity.
01:08:53Do you like it?
01:08:54Victor, whatever my sister did is on her!
01:08:56Why are you dragging me into this?
01:08:58You borrowed money from me to gamble.
01:09:00Already forgotten?
01:09:03Maybe this is God's punishment for all the terrible things I've done in my life.
01:09:08Ms. Sterling, today is your birthday.
01:09:10Consider this my birthday gift to you.
01:09:12These people who bullied you are all yours now.
01:09:15Punish them however you see fit.
01:09:17These people do deserve to face the consequences of what they've done.
01:09:23Richard, I don't expect your forgiveness, but I served you faithfully for three years.
01:09:29Please, at least give me a way out.
01:09:31Mr. Sterling, I'm just a nobody.
01:09:33One of those riffragg.
01:09:34Getting even with someone like me is beneath you.
01:09:36Mr. Sterling, if you'd rather not get your hands dirty, I'd be happy to handle them for you.
01:09:41But my daughter is here.
01:09:43As a father, I won't teach her hatred.
01:09:45Leave the state and never come back.
01:09:48I'll go.
01:09:49I'll go.
01:09:50I swear I will never appear in front of you again.
01:09:52Get out!
01:10:02Mr. Sterling, you truly are a generous man.
01:10:06Seems my gift wasn't quite to your liking.
01:10:09Mr. Crane, they were nothing but a pretext for you to get this meeting.
01:10:12Then let's get back to business.
01:10:14About the mining partnership.
01:10:16If you genuinely want that contract, earn it through legitimate means.
01:10:19Mr. Sterling, once we sign the contract, everything becomes legitimate.
01:10:25Isn't it?
01:10:32Mr. Crane, do you know what helped me to get to where I am today?
01:10:37Opportunity and capability.
01:10:40Then it was family connections.
01:10:43Getting warmer.
01:10:44Forgive me for being slow.
01:10:46Please, just spell it out.
01:10:48Because I have a group of loyal brothers who've had my back every step of the way.
01:10:53They're the ones who put me where I am.
01:10:57And what does that have to do with our collaboration?
01:10:59It means that even when I walk into a place like this alone, I still hold the winning hand.
01:11:08You ungrateful idiot!
01:11:10Do you have any idea who Richard Sterling is?
01:11:12Let them go!
01:11:13Now!
01:11:14Dad, stay out of this.
01:11:15Stay out of it?
01:11:16How can I stay out of it?
01:11:18Your mother, your wife, your children.
01:11:21They're all surrounded by Sterling's people.
01:11:24Right now!
01:11:24Let them go right now!
01:11:26You want to get us all killed?
01:11:29Mr. Crane, until we meet again.
01:11:33How could you?
01:11:36Impossible!
01:11:40I've decided to dissolve the entire Sterling group utterly.
01:11:44Dad, that's decades of your life's work.
01:11:46Don't worry.
01:11:47What's left will be more than enough for the two of us.
01:11:50For the rest of our lives.
01:11:51That's not what I mean!
01:11:53Money is just numbers on a page.
01:11:56Danielle, you are my life's work.
01:12:07What's left will be more than enough for the two of us.
01:12:08What's left will be more than enough for the two of us.
01:12:08What's left will be more than enough for the two of us.
