00:00:32Unbelievable. The venue is miles away from her school. How is she going to get there on her own?
00:00:39Forget it. I'll pick her up myself.
00:00:41Let's go together. Danielle is going to be my stepdaughter soon. I've been looking forward to meet her.
00:00:47If I want to ensure my place as Mrs. Sterling, I need to win over the one person he cares
00:00:52about most. His daughter.
00:01:00The man is older than you. He's got a kid from before. And you're not even asking for a prenup?
00:01:06Are you out of your mind?
00:01:09Mom, trust me. My fiancé is no ordinary man.
00:01:14Fine. You want to marry him? Then at least get something out of it.
00:01:17I want $100,000. No, $200,000 as a gift. Minimum.
00:01:22All right, all right, Mom. I'll send you a surprise when the time comes. Gotta go. Bye.
00:01:26Hey!
00:01:28You are already babysitting someone else for free? Try and surprise me. I'll believe it when I see it.
00:01:34Who left this shit here blocking the sidewalk?
00:01:48Oh, God! Oh!
00:01:51My back!
00:01:56Ma'am, are you okay?
00:01:59Sweetheart, help me up. I promise I won't cause you any trouble.
00:02:04Okay, let me help you up.
00:02:07Oh, honey, I think you need to take me to the hospital.
00:02:11All right, let's go.
00:02:12Thanks. It's so nice of you.
00:02:23Ma'am, here's your bill. You should call your family to take care of the payment.
00:02:29That much?
00:02:30I'll leave. It's okay.
00:02:36Hold on!
00:02:37You're the one who knocked me down.
00:02:39You're not leaving until you pay this bill!
00:02:45Hold 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?
00:03:00Kindness?
00:03:01If it isn't you who knocked me down, why would you bother helping me?
00:03:05You brought me here because you knew you were responsible.
00:03:09I'm telling you, you're paying every single cent.
00:03:15End of discussion!
00:03:17End of discussion!
00:03:45That's not fair.
00:03:45I don't want 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?
00:03:52How could you...
00:03:56Watch your mouth for God's sake!
00:03:58So what?
00:04:00Who cares?
00:04:05What 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?
00:04:27Do you have any idea who my mother is?
00:04:30She's about to become the mother-in-law of Richard Sterling, the CEO of Sterling Group.
00:04:35My dad?
00:04:37Richard Sterling.
00:04:39That's the wealthiest man in the entire state.
00:04:44Tyler!
00:04:45Your sister's fiancée is really Richard Sterling?
00:04:48The CEO of Sterling Group?
00:04:51Of course, Mom.
00:04:53Once my sister marries Mr. Sterling,
00:04:55it's only a matter of time before I move up to a senior position at Sterling Group.
00:05:00Wonderful!
00:05:01The coal is finally going places!
00:05:08Weren't you all so brave a minute ago?
00:05:10What's the matter now?
00:05:11Nothing left to say?
00:05:13Oh, Mom, Mr. Sterling personally invited our whole family to dinner tonight.
00:05:16I came to pick you up, but someone on the street said you were taken to the hospital.
00:05:19What happened?
00:05:20This gang right here!
00:05:22She knocked me down, refused to pay my medical bills, and even talked back to me!
00:05:27So it's you who hit my mother.
00:05:29Who the fuck are you?
00:05:30I didn't hit her.
00:05:31You're accusing the wrong person.
00:05:34My mother is lying in that hospital bed, and you're still denying it?
00:05:38Call her parents!
00:05:39I really want to see who raised a daughter with such terrible manners!
00:05:43You're the ones in the wrong!
00:05:45You have no right to drag my parents into this!
00:05:49You want to say that again?
00:05:52What is going on in here?
00:05:54This is a hospital.
00:05:56If you can't keep it down, I'm calling security.
00:05:59A nurse is telling me what to do?
00:06:01This doesn't concern you, dear.
00:06:03This hussy hit my mother and refuses to pay.
00:06:05I'm handling a family matter.
00:06:07Stay out of it!
00:06:08I don't care about the reason.
00:06:10You're disturbing other patients.
00:06:11Either keep your voices down or take it outside.
00:06:14Now.
00:06:14My mother is your patient too!
00:06:16What do you mean take it outside?
00:06:23Vanessa, sweetheart, come to the hospital right now and bring your fiancé.
00:06:27Your mother and your brother need backup.
00:06:35Vanessa!
00:06:36Get to the West Metro Hospital now!
00:06:38Your mother and your brother are being pushed around!
00:06:41What?
00:06:42Stay calm, Mom.
00:06:43I'm on my way!
00:06:44Vanessa, what's wrong?
00:06:48Honey, something came up with my mom.
00:06:51Let me go handle it real quick.
00:06:54I can help.
00:06:55Let me go with you.
00:06:56No, it's fine.
00:06:57I can handle it myself.
00:06:59You should go pick up Danielle.
00:07:01It's not safe for her to ride all that way alone.
00:07:03All right.
00:07:04If you need anything, call me.
00:07:06I will.
00:07:09Get a few guys and meet me at the hospital.
00:07:12Let me see who has the nerve to mess with my mother.
00:07:18Who the fuck making trouble at this point?
00:07:20The four of you?
00:07:21Go bring those gifts over.
00:07:23Yes, ma'am.
00:07:27Who is bullying my mother?
00:07:30Ma'am, this is a hospital.
00:07:31Please keep it down.
00:07:32Am I the one making noise?
00:07:34Or are you?
00:07:36This is Mrs. Sterling, wife of the CEO of Sterling Group.
00:07:41Dad's wife?
00:07:42I've never heard anything about this.
00:07:44This hospital was funded by Sterling Group.
00:07:47I assume you're aware of that.
00:07:50Ryan, right?
00:07:51I'm firing your ass tomorrow.
00:07:55Vanessa, it's that hussy right there.
00:07:57She knocked mom down and still won't admit it.
00:08:01Mom, how do you feel?
00:08:03Ouch!
00:08:04I can barely move!
00:08:07Vanessa, with mom's injuries, we should make her pay at least $300,000.
00:08:17Is money all you ever think about?
00:08:19Maybe this lady is actually reasonable.
00:08:23Ma'am, my father is...
00:08:29I don't care who your father is, and I didn't ask.
00:08:35I don't care who your father is, and I didn't ask.
00:08:39That's right!
00:08:40Vanessa, you can't just let this go.
00:08:43Are you going to let your mother get hit for nothing?
00:08:46Exactly, Vanessa.
00:08:47You're Mr. Sterling's wife.
00:08:49If word gets out that someone did this to our mom and got away with it,
00:08:52where is your dignity?
00:08:53Look at her, clearly from a nobody family.
00:08:56Forget $300,000, I doubt her entire family could scrape together $10,000.
00:09:01Ma'am, I'm telling the truth!
00:09:03They're falsely accusing me!
00:09:04She fell on her own!
00:09:06I didn't hit her!
00:09:07You didn't hit her?
00:09:09Then why did you help her up?
00:09:10You're awfully good at lying for someone your age.
00:09:13Dealing with people like you is such a waste of my time.
00:09:15I was supposed to be picking out a birthday gift for my future stepdaughter,
00:09:18and now you've ruined my schedule!
00:09:21Future stepdaughter?
00:09:22Mother, I...
00:09:23Yes!
00:09:25Because of you, I gotta deal with this mess instead!
00:09:29Ma'am, I just...
00:09:31Don't you try to fool me.
00:09:33Now call your parents immediately!
00:09:35You little artful hussy hit my mother!
00:09:37Your family owes us at least $300,000!
00:09:40Oh God, my leg!
00:09:42I think she broke my leg!
00:09:43Poor girl.
00:09:44She messed with the wrong people.
00:09:46Sterling Group is the most powerful company in the state.
00:09:49Every VIP in town bows to them.
00:09:51This girl's family is toast.
00:09:58Dad!
00:10:03That thing won't stop buzzing, annoying!
00:10:08What happened?
00:10:10Bad signal?
00:10:11I told you to call your parents.
00:10:13Not play with your gadgets.
00:10:14God damn, do you speak English?
00:10:16That was my dad calling me just now!
00:10:19Tyler, give her your phone.
00:10:20Let her call her parents.
00:10:21I don't have time to waste here.
00:10:24Hurry up.
00:10:29Hello?
00:10:30Who is this?
00:10:31Dad, it's me.
00:10:32I'm at the hospital.
00:10:35Your daughter got herself into trouble.
00:10:37Get your ass to East Metro Hospital now.
00:10:40Who is this?
00:10:41Who I am doesn't matter.
00:10:43Your daughter put my mother in the hospital.
00:10:44Are you gonna deal with this or not?
00:10:45I'll pay whatever it takes.
00:10:47But, don't you dare touch my daughter.
00:10:49I'm on my way.
00:10:50That voice.
00:10:52Unbelievable.
00:10:53The venue is miles away from her school.
00:10:55How is she gonna get there on her own?
00:10:56Forget it.
00:10:56I'll pick her up myself.
00:10:57I can help.
00:10:58Let me go with you.
00:10:59Ma'am, my father is...
00:11:04Who's your father?
00:11:07East Metro Hospital in 10 minutes.
00:11:10Step on it.
00:11:11Yes, sir.
00:11:15Honey, this gem necklace.
00:11:17I got it from my mom when I was to Danielle's age.
00:11:20Give it to Danielle for me.
00:11:22Tell her that mommy became this pendult.
00:11:25And she'll always be with her.
00:11:27Don't be silly, babe.
00:11:28You're gonna get well soon.
00:11:30You can give it to her yourself.
00:11:32I know my own body.
00:11:34After I'm gone, find Danielle a good mother.
00:11:38Our child can't grow up without a mom.
00:11:43Sweetheart, I promise you,
00:11:45no one will ever lay a hand on our daughter.
00:11:49That voice.
00:11:51Why does it sound so familiar?
00:11:56Who is your father?
00:11:58Who cares who her dad is?
00:11:59He can't be more important than my brother-in-law.
00:12:02Give me the phone.
00:12:12It's just an unknown number.
00:12:13I almost had a heart attack.
00:12:15I thought it was Richard.
00:12:16What's with that look?
00:12:18Your mother got hurt and you can't even be bothered to stand up for me?
00:12:21Mom, I have to attend my future stepdaughter's birthday gala tonight.
00:12:24She's not even your real daughter.
00:12:26Why do you care so much?
00:12:27Richard's daughter is the person he cares about the most in the world.
00:12:31I have to make a good impression on her.
00:12:33Then you'd better hurry up and give Richard a child of you two.
00:12:36Once you do, trust me.
00:12:39He'll forget all about that girl.
00:12:42Dad will never fall in love with a woman like her.
00:12:45Did you hear that?
00:12:46My sister has important things to do tonight
00:12:48and you're the one holding everything up.
00:12:50My dad will be here soon.
00:12:52He'll prove that I didn't hit anyone.
00:12:54Your dad?
00:12:55Your dad is nobody!
00:12:57Let me tell you, if your family can't pay up,
00:13:00you'll all be working for us like servants for the rest of your lives.
00:13:04My dad works at Sterling Group.
00:13:06Is that so?
00:13:07Then consider him fired.
00:13:11Oh, so your daddy is just an employee at Sterling Group?
00:13:17Raising a daughter with no manners.
00:13:18That kind of employee deserves to be fired.
00:13:21It'll be a good lesson for everyone else at Sterling Group.
00:13:24Learn to respect the CEO's wife.
00:13:30You can't fire my dad.
00:13:32Every executive in that company bows to me.
00:13:34Who does your father think he is?
00:13:37What's that?
00:13:42Give it back!
00:13:43Give it back!
00:13:44Give me back!
00:13:45We're my pendant!
00:13:49This pendant looks expensive.
00:13:51Might fetch a nice price.
00:13:53Lucky me.
00:13:54I still owe money from that poker game last month.
00:13:58Vanessa, careful with that.
00:14:03This means a lot to you.
00:14:05Huh?
00:14:06It's the only thing my mom left me.
00:14:08Please, I'm begging you, give it back!
00:14:10If it's so precious, why didn't you protect it better?
00:14:19Please, give it back to me.
00:14:22Say it.
00:14:23Admit that you're the one who knocked my mother down.
00:14:26I'm sorry.
00:14:28It was my fault.
00:14:30I was the one who knocked you down.
00:14:32Please, just give me back my pendant.
00:14:39Good.
00:14:40Now that you've admitted it, apologize to my mother properly.
00:14:49An apology should look like an apology, don't you think?
00:14:55Dad, please hurry!
00:14:58Dad, please hurry!
00:15:00Dad, stop!
00:15:09My apologies.
00:15:15Miss Cole, the gifts you ordered for the young miss, they're all ready.
00:15:20Come in.
00:15:28How much do you think all that costs?
00:15:31That's the CEO's fiancé for you.
00:15:33Money is no object.
00:15:36All this expensive stuff wasted on someone else's leftover kid!
00:15:43What a shame!
00:15:47Fanny, how much did these take?
00:15:50Do not touch.
00:15:52Come on, Fanny.
00:15:53She's not even your real daughter.
00:15:55Why treat this stuff like it's sacred?
00:16:00Hello?
00:16:01Who is this?
00:16:02Where exactly are you?
00:16:04I'm in the room and and...
00:16:05I can't see you guys.
00:16:07Are you fucking-ed?
00:16:09Blind?
00:16:10There are people everywhere in here.
00:16:13How can you not see us?
00:16:15Don't try to stall for time!
00:16:21West Metro Hospital, room 303.
00:16:25I'm in a hurry.
00:16:26Don't waste my time.
00:16:31Huh.
00:16:32Fanny, aren't we at East Metro Hospital?
00:16:35You idiot!
00:16:36This is West Metro!
00:16:38You dumbass can't even get an address right!
00:16:40That woman's voice.
00:16:41It sounded so familiar.
00:16:43Could it be...
00:16:46Miss Cole?
00:16:47Your phone.
00:16:54Hey, babe.
00:16:55What's up?
00:16:55Vanessa, where are you right now?
00:16:57I'm putting the finishing touches on Danielle's gifts.
00:17:00I'll head to the gala soon.
00:17:02Are you already there?
00:17:03No, I gotta be a little late or something.
00:17:05Dad!
00:17:07Shut your mouth now!
00:17:10Do you want me to come help you?
00:17:11No need.
00:17:24What do you think you're doing screaming like that?
00:17:29Give my necklace back!
00:17:32You skink!
00:17:33Get away!
00:17:36You are such a bad witch!
00:17:44Fanny, watch out!
00:17:54Look what you've done!
00:17:56You've ruined everything!
00:18:02This figurine was a $500,000.
00:18:05custom piece!
00:18:07Can you even comprehend what that means?
00:18:10First, she gets scammed by that woman.
00:18:12Now she owes half a million.
00:18:14This poor girl's life is already over.
00:18:17Right.
00:18:18Tonight is Danielle's birthday gala.
00:18:21Now, you've destroyed her gift!
00:18:24How am I supposed to explain this?
00:18:26You're nothing but a goddamn jinx.
00:18:28You're nothing but a goddamn jinx.
00:18:29You've been wasting my time all along, and I won't let you off.
00:18:32Not ever.
00:18:33Vanessa, just say the word.
00:18:35I'll handle her.
00:18:36And when her parents show up, we fix them too!
00:18:39This whole family is a curse!
00:18:42Stop!
00:18:49Stop!
00:18:50All of you, stop right now!
00:18:52And who are you supposed to be?
00:18:55Fuck off!
00:18:57I'm the director of this hospital.
00:18:59A hospital director?
00:19:01So what?
00:19:02You can't treat a young woman like this in my hospital.
00:19:05Mind your own business!
00:19:07One more word, and we'll deal with you too!
00:19:10If you don't stop, I'm calling the police.
00:19:13Right now!
00:19:15You've spent your whole career climbing to this position.
00:19:18It'd be a shame to throw it all away over something this trivial like this.
00:19:22You should know that the biggest hair holder of this hospital is Sterling Group.
00:19:28My sister is Mr. Sterling's fiancé.
00:19:31Do you really want to make an enemy of us?
00:19:36You two, this girl is a...
00:19:37A nobody.
00:19:38I don't care who she is.
00:19:40I'm on a tight schedule.
00:19:41Don't waste my time.
00:19:43You heard her!
00:19:44My girl is busy!
00:19:45If you know what's good for you, leave!
00:19:49Also, move my mother to a VIP suite.
00:19:52I don't want her sharing a room with these people.
00:19:55And you, prepare another gift for Danielle.
00:19:59A million dollars worth?
00:20:00Make sure it's something she'll love.
00:20:02Fanny, honey, you really should give Richard a baby soon.
00:20:06So you won't have to keep spoiling someone else's child.
00:20:09She is Danielle!
00:20:11Danielle Sterling!
00:20:16That's impossible!
00:20:17You don't know what you're talking about!
00:20:19This is the form she signed when she was admitted.
00:20:27Danielle!
00:20:28Danielle!
00:20:29Sweetie!
00:20:29This is all a misunderstanding.
00:20:31I was just...
00:20:32joking around with you.
00:20:35Don't touch me!
00:20:36Sweetheart, Grandma's old and goofy.
00:20:39I had no idea you were my future step-granddaughter.
00:20:41I'm just a silly old woman.
00:20:43You're young and kind.
00:20:45Don't hold it against me, okay?
00:20:47Hey, my little niece!
00:20:48What a mix-up!
00:20:49What a small world!
00:20:50We're family!
00:20:51Family?
00:20:52Don't make me laugh.
00:20:55Danielle, if I had known it was you, I...
00:20:58I never would have...
00:20:59Exactly!
00:21:00You should have said something earlier, sweetie!
00:21:06Daniela, look at this!
00:21:08I had this custom made for you by a great designer in Milana.
00:21:12One of a kind in the world.
00:21:14It's worth two million dollars.
00:21:17And this necklace, handcrafted by a master jeweler in Paris.
00:21:23How beautiful.
00:21:25Worth three million.
00:21:26That figurine...
00:21:28Sorry, I know I messed up.
00:21:30Whatever!
00:21:31From now on, however many you want, I'll buy them all for you!
00:21:34I don't want any of it!
00:21:37Danielle, you lost your mother so young.
00:21:41Let me take good care of you, okay?
00:21:43I promise I'll treat you like my own daughter.
00:21:47Someone like you will never be my mother.
00:21:49I'll make sure of it!
00:21:51Wait a minute.
00:21:52I know.
00:21:54There's no way she's actually Mr. Sterling's daughter.
00:21:59Tyler, what are you doing?
00:22:04Director, if you actually know the Sterling heiress, why didn't you just identify her face-to-face?
00:22:11Why make a big show of pulling out some form?
00:22:14Unless you've never actually met her.
00:22:17I...
00:22:18Well, I haven't...
00:22:19So you're saying you've never met the real Danielle Stickling in person?
00:22:22Are you?
00:22:23That's true, but her signature matches the name, and her age also matches perfectly.
00:22:31So you're basing this entire claim on a name and an age?
00:22:34Are you kidding me?
00:22:38Vanessa!
00:22:39Even if her name is Danielle Sterling, it could just be a coincidence.
00:22:42Same name, different person.
00:22:44How can you prove she's not?
00:22:46How many subsidiaries does Sterling Group have?
00:22:49Who heads each one?
00:22:50I don't know.
00:22:51Dad rarely talks about work.
00:22:53Keep asking!
00:22:55Thompson, Walsh, Crawford, Henderson ring any bells?
00:22:58No.
00:22:59Those are all senior executives at Sterling Group.
00:23:02Even we outsiders know those names.
00:23:04How could she not?
00:23:05You all heard it, right?
00:23:06She can't even answer basic questions about the company.
00:23:09There's no way she's the Sterling heiress.
00:23:12Unbelievable!
00:23:13Trying to impersonate my future step-granddaughter?
00:23:16You bastard must have a death wish!
00:23:22What a waste of my time!
00:23:31How much longer?
00:23:33Sir, there's an accident up ahead.
00:23:35We can barely move.
00:23:43Sir?
00:23:50$10,000.
00:23:51I'm buying your bike.
00:24:05Danielle, don't be afraid.
00:24:07Daddy's almost there.
00:24:08You almost had us fooled, you little con artist!
00:24:13She'd say anything to dodge responsibility.
00:24:16Typical, like parent, like child.
00:24:18This just got worse.
00:24:20She could have settled with a payment, but now she's impersonated Mr. Sterling's daughter.
00:24:24They'll never let her go.
00:24:25They say Mr. Sterling cherishes daughter more than anything.
00:24:28Impersonating the Sterling heiress, that girl is done for.
00:24:32You destroyed my gift, and furthermore, you had the nerve to impersonate Danielle.
00:24:37I'm going to make sure you never forget this day.
00:24:41No!
00:24:43Get it back!
00:24:50No!
00:24:57Mom.
00:25:14Stop crying!
00:25:15The necklace is broken.
00:25:18That means mom is really gone.
00:25:22Save the sob story.
00:25:25Kicking you would be an insult to my shoes.
00:25:27It's just a cheap trinket, probably worth about 20 bucks.
00:25:31Is that really worth all these tears?
00:25:33The figurine you smashed is worth enough to buy hundreds of thousands of those little charms.
00:25:38As if her, whatever, trinkets could ever compare to those gifts.
00:25:42I wasn't even going to waste my precious time on you.
00:25:45All you had to do was pay for what you did to my mother and apologize.
00:25:49That would have been the end of it.
00:25:50But look at the mess you've made.
00:25:56A $500,000 figurine destroyed!
00:26:08Destroyed!
00:26:09A $3,000,000 necklace.
00:26:13A $2,000,000 dress!
00:26:17All ruined because of you!
00:26:20The birthday gala starts any minute now.
00:26:23How am I supposed to face Richard and Danielle?
00:26:26With empty hands.
00:26:27You tell me!
00:26:36You want to get into trouble, old man?
00:26:38Back off!
00:26:39Still trying to play hero for this girl?
00:26:41Ma'am, this is a hospital.
00:26:43If this gets out of hand, it won't look good.
00:26:45For the hospital or for Sterling Group.
00:26:48My mother was knocked down.
00:26:50Who's paying for that?
00:26:51My gifts are destroyed.
00:26:52Who's covering that?
00:26:54And my time?
00:26:55Who's going to give it back to me?
00:26:56My wife owns a gift boutique.
00:26:59She can have something premium prepared right away.
00:27:02You?
00:27:02You think your wife's little shop can provide gifts worthy of the Sterling family?
00:27:07And will also upgrade your mother to a VIP suite with dedicated private care.
00:27:11So, perhaps you could go a little easier on the girl?
00:27:15Your wife's bargain big trash is supposed to be a gift for Mr. Sterling's daughter, my future niece?
00:27:23Don't insult us!
00:27:24VIP suite?
00:27:25My leg hurts!
00:27:27I can't move!
00:27:27Just kick everyone else out and make this damn room the VIP suite!
00:27:31Problem solved!
00:27:33That's not exactly how it works.
00:27:43She disrespected my sister and my mom.
00:27:46You think I'm just going to let her off?
00:27:48Ridiculous!
00:27:50Get someone to West Metro Hospital now.
00:27:52Find out which room Danielle's is in.
00:27:54Right away, Mr. Sterling.
00:27:58You made me go through all this trouble.
00:28:00I gotta admit, you've got nerve.
00:28:03But if I don't teach you a lesson today, my name isn't Vanessa Cole.
00:28:09Director!
00:28:10Mr. Sterling from Sterling Group!
00:28:12He's on his way here right now!
00:28:14What?
00:28:16I gotta fetch Mr. Sterling in.
00:28:21What's Richard doing here?
00:28:24It's obvious.
00:28:26Mr. Sterling found out his future mother-in-law was hospitalized and came to visit.
00:28:30That's the only explanation.
00:28:31He must have picked up Danielle already and came to check on mom.
00:28:34The birthday gala is about to start and he still made time to visit mom.
00:28:40Sis, Mr. Sterling really does care about you.
00:28:42He just went to pick up his daughter.
00:28:44That means he'll probably bring her along too, right?
00:28:50Vanessa, what about the gifts?
00:28:53You!
00:28:53Go prepare a new set of gifts within one hour.
00:28:56Get the best and the most expensive.
00:29:00We'll just say the gifts are being delivered separately.
00:29:03A gift can be late.
00:29:05As long as it's expensive enough, no one will complain.
00:29:09Mom, your future son-in-law is coming to see you.
00:29:12Mr. Sterling is so thoughtful.
00:29:14He really didn't have to come all this way.
00:29:16As long as he and Vanessa are happy together, that's all I need.
00:29:29Give it back!
00:29:30What a freaking eyesore.
00:29:32If you want to cry, go cry somewhere else.
00:29:34Let me meet my future stepdaughter first.
00:29:36Then I'll deal with you and your father.
00:29:41No!
00:29:42No!
00:29:46No!
00:29:47You monster!
00:29:50She's lost her mind!
00:29:51Pull her off now!
00:29:54No!
00:29:54No!
00:29:56No!
00:30:00Why?
00:30:01Why are you doing this to me?
00:30:03Send this lunaturk to a mental institution!
00:30:06Lock her up and throw away the key!
00:30:09Mr. Sterling, it's the room right ahead.
00:30:13Miss Cole, regardless of who she is, she's still just a young woman.
00:30:17Please.
00:30:18A child?
00:30:19Does a child do this?
00:30:23My sister is the future wife of Sterling Group's CEO.
00:30:27Interfere again and you're next.
00:30:41Dad!
00:30:48Honey, you should have told me you were coming.
00:30:54Dad!
00:30:55Sir, I'm Tyler Cole, your future brother-in-law.
00:30:59Vanessa talks about you all the time.
00:31:03Oh, my Mr. Sterling!
00:31:06How sweet of you to come all this way just to visit little old me.
00:31:10Honey, you're so busy.
00:31:11You really didn't have to come.
00:31:13Oh, that girl, I don't know where she came from.
00:31:15She's been crying and making a scene this whole time.
00:31:18Get this girl out of here.
00:31:19If she makes one more sound, I'll have her mouth sewn shut!
00:31:24Dad!
00:31:25They are bullying me!
00:31:29Get off my daughter.
00:31:31Oh, let her go.
00:31:33Quick, let her go!
00:31:38Dad.
00:31:40Are you feeling all right?
00:31:42Danielle, it's okay.
00:31:44Daddy's here now.
00:31:46Tell me what happened.
00:31:49I helped her because she fell down, and she accused me of knocking her over.
00:31:54And these two of them, they swore at me and hit me, and they broke the necklace mom left me.
00:32:00Danielle, sweetie, I thought you were someone else.
00:32:04I had no idea it was you.
00:32:05Yeah.
00:32:06This...
00:32:07We're all family here, right?
00:32:09Why didn't you say something earlier?
00:32:10It's all just a big misunderstanding.
00:32:13I tried to tell you multiple times.
00:32:16None of you would listen!
00:32:18Wow.
00:32:19Showtime.
00:32:21She messed with Richard Sterling's daughter.
00:32:23He's not going to let this slide.
00:32:25Vanessa's position as the future Mrs. Sterling?
00:32:28Gone.
00:32:31Danielle, sweetie.
00:32:32Grandma's old and senile.
00:32:34I'm just an elderly woman from the countryside.
00:32:38I don't know any better.
00:32:39Please don't hold it against me.
00:32:42Scamming people wasn't enough for you.
00:32:44You had to bully my daughter, too.
00:32:47Mr. Sterling, if I had known she was your daughter, you could have killed me before I dare...
00:32:53And if she weren't my daughter, would that make it okay to treat someone like this?
00:32:57Honey, this is all a misunderstanding.
00:33:00I've always treated Danielle like my own.
00:33:03Look, I even prepared gifts for her.
00:33:05My dear brother-in-law, this was just, you know, a comedy of errors.
00:33:11We're all family here, and we didn't really lay a hand on...
00:33:15Shut up!
00:33:16Vanny, I was just trying to help...
00:33:19Get out of my sight!
00:33:22Honey, my mom and my brother were so rude.
00:33:25I'll talk to them, I promise.
00:33:27We've been together for three years.
00:33:29Please, don't let this ruin our...
00:33:30Dad!
00:33:32She smashed mom's necklace!
00:33:34And she threw the shatters out the window!
00:33:36Vanessa Cole, you've really outdone yourself.
00:33:43I didn't know that necklace was so important.
00:33:46What are you standing around for?
00:33:47Go find that necklace!
00:33:49If you come back empty-handed, you're all fired!
00:33:52Honey, if I had known who she was, I never would have made such a terrible mistake.
00:33:56Forget it.
00:33:57You've been working hard.
00:33:58You must be tired.
00:34:01Honey, you forgive me?
00:34:03We're done.
00:34:07Mr. Sterling!
00:34:08Mom, what are you doing?
00:34:09Mr. Sterling, you can't break up with Vanessa!
00:34:14Please, I'm begging you!
00:34:17Vanessa is a good girl.
00:34:18She truly loves you.
00:34:20This is all my fault!
00:34:22I ruined everything.
00:34:23Don't punish her for my mistakes.
00:34:25I'll do anything!
00:34:26It's all my fault!
00:34:28Everything is my fault!
00:34:30Please, Mr. Sterling!
00:34:31Mom, stop!
00:34:32Please, I'm begging you, stop!
00:34:37Are you really going to be this heartless?
00:34:40I believed you were kind.
00:34:41It never occurred to me that you could be this cruel.
00:34:44I will never let you become Danielle's stepmother.
00:34:47I made a mistake and I'll correct it.
00:34:50All I need is a chance.
00:34:51You know better than anyone.
00:34:54Danielle is my bottom line.
00:34:57What you did today is definitely unforgivable.
00:35:01I didn't know she was Danielle!
00:35:03If I weren't Dad's daughter,
00:35:05would you have just kept bullying me?
00:35:08Without even letting me explain?
00:35:11Niece, of course not.
00:35:12Those ordinary people can't compare to you.
00:35:16Enough!
00:35:19Whatever we had, it ends here.
00:35:22I hope you learn your lesson
00:35:24and never torture people who can't fight back again.
00:35:28Richard!
00:35:29You think you can just dump me at your own will?
00:35:31You think there's nothing I can do about it for real?
00:35:35Richard, don't be so cold-blooded.
00:35:38Let's just pretend that nothing happened today.
00:35:40You stay as Mr. Sterling.
00:35:42And if I say no...
00:35:44You think the only thing I've been doing
00:35:46these past three years is playing house with you?
00:35:53Darling, I need your help.
00:35:55With Richard Sterling around, you still need me?
00:35:58He's exactly the one I need you to deal with.
00:36:01Let's go.
00:36:02It's time.
00:36:07Vanessa, I'm here.
00:36:08Marcus, what are you doing here?
00:36:10Mr. Sterling.
00:36:11As busy as you are, you still find time for domestic drama?
00:36:14If you have something to say.
00:36:16Easy, easy.
00:36:18No need to get worked up.
00:36:20I'm just here to advise you
00:36:22not to break things off with Miss Cole.
00:36:26My personal life is none of your concern.
00:36:29A man who abandons his commitment so easily,
00:36:32can he really be trusted to lead Sterling Group?
00:36:34Be careful, Mr. Sterling.
00:36:36Are you threatening me?
00:36:38I wouldn't dream of it.
00:36:40I'm simply reminding you,
00:36:42if the founder of Sterling Group
00:36:44gets voted out by his own board,
00:36:46well, that's not exactly good press, is it?
00:36:56How long has this been going on between you two?
00:36:58I'm not one of those stupid women
00:36:59who can't live without their man.
00:37:01Vanessa Cole!
00:37:04Marcus and I were together long before I ever met you.
00:37:07So technically, Richard,
00:37:08you were the one who got in the middle.
00:37:10I was kind enough to make you the main act,
00:37:13and now you're blaming me?
00:37:14Absolutely shameless.
00:37:17I get what I want.
00:37:18Everything else is irrelevant.
00:37:21Henceforth, you'll get nothing.
00:37:22Hold on!
00:37:24Every senior executive and board member at Sterling Group,
00:37:27I've had them wrapped around my finger.
00:37:29And I've placed plenty of loyalists
00:37:31who take orders only from me.
00:37:33Right now at Sterling Group,
00:37:35my word carries more weight than yours, Mr. Sterling.
00:37:39Vanny, you're incredible!
00:37:40Even I couldn't pull that off!
00:37:41You idiot!
00:37:43If you can't say something useful,
00:37:44shut your mouth!
00:37:47Richard Sterling,
00:37:48I never liked you since way back.
00:37:50So what if you're the great Mr. Sterling?
00:37:52Look at you now!
00:37:54My daughter's got you right under her wheel!
00:37:57Richard, you have two choices now.
00:37:59Option one,
00:38:01pretend that nothing happened today
00:38:03and we get married as planned.
00:38:05Option two,
00:38:06you get away from Sterling Group,
00:38:08let Marcus take over as CEO,
00:38:09and I run things from behind the scenes.
00:38:14Two options.
00:38:16Pick one,
00:38:17now.
00:38:20What if I pick neither?
00:38:24Then don't blame me for what happens next.
00:38:32Call an emergency board meeting,
00:38:35effective immediately.
00:38:36Strip Richard Sterling of all executive authority.
00:38:41Mr. Sterling,
00:38:42by tomorrow morning,
00:38:43you will resign from the CEO position,
00:38:45voluntarily,
00:38:46non-negotiable.
00:38:48Richard,
00:38:49oh Richard,
00:38:50I'm giving you a graceful exit.
00:38:52why do you insist on making this ugly?
00:38:56I thought the great Richard Sterling
00:38:58was supposed to be some big shot.
00:39:03Turns out he's nothing special after all.
00:39:06Mom,
00:39:07don't say that.
00:39:08No matter how great Richard is,
00:39:09he still ends up under my sister's thumb.
00:39:12Vanessa,
00:39:13if you had kind of power all along,
00:39:16why did you put up with him?
00:39:17Why waste your time
00:39:19taking care of his daughter?
00:39:21Exactly,
00:39:22Vanny.
00:39:23Why not just take Sterling down
00:39:25and let our
00:39:27family
00:39:27take over completely?
00:39:29Richard
00:39:29is a business genius.
00:39:32He's my money-making machine.
00:39:33And you think
00:39:34you can replace him?
00:39:36If I hadn't been forced into a corner,
00:39:38I never would have shown my hand.
00:39:40Richard,
00:39:41if you're willing to apologize to me right now,
00:39:45for old time's sake,
00:39:46I'll let this go.
00:39:48I might even arrange
00:39:49a nice position for you
00:39:50at Sterling Group.
00:39:53Don't you think
00:39:53you're celebrating
00:39:54a little too early?
00:39:57I built Sterling Group
00:39:59from the ground up.
00:40:01You think you can just
00:40:02take it from me like this?
00:40:04It seems
00:40:05Mr. Sterling is
00:40:08not cooperating.
00:40:10Letting you resign voluntarily
00:40:12was me being generous.
00:40:14Don't push your luck, Richard.
00:40:16There's no coming back.
00:40:17Since you refuse
00:40:19to go quietly,
00:40:20don't blame me
00:40:21for being ruthless.
00:40:23This is a copy
00:40:24of document
00:40:25the board prepared
00:40:25in advance.
00:40:27Richard,
00:40:28whether you resign or not,
00:40:29I can replace you
00:40:30anytime I want.
00:40:32Marcus,
00:40:33once you sign this,
00:40:34you'll be the new CEO
00:40:36of Sterling Group.
00:40:36will be the new CEO of Sterling Group.
00:40:41Congratulations, Mr. Webb.
00:40:46Sweetheart,
00:40:47if you want,
00:40:49I'll divorce my wife today
00:40:51and make you
00:40:52the new CEO's wife.
00:40:55Vanny,
00:40:56you're awesome.
00:40:57The Cole family's future
00:40:59is all on you.
00:41:01Richard Sterling,
00:41:02it's time we settled
00:41:03our old score.
00:41:05Your daughter
00:41:06knocked me down.
00:41:07It is not over yet.
00:41:10Dad,
00:41:11what are we going to do?
00:41:14Richard,
00:41:15you're just a nobody now.
00:41:16Stop acting like
00:41:17you're still somebody.
00:41:19pay up
00:41:21or I'll make you
00:41:22regret it.
00:41:27You parasites.
00:41:29All you know
00:41:30is scheming
00:41:30and backstabbing.
00:41:31You don't even understand
00:41:33how a company
00:41:33actually operates.
00:41:35So what?
00:41:36Sterling Group
00:41:36is ours now.
00:41:39All we have to do
00:41:40is hire people
00:41:41to do the work
00:41:41while we sit back
00:41:42and count the money.
00:41:45Freeze every single account
00:41:47tied to Sterling Group.
00:41:48All of them
00:41:49immediately.
00:41:54Richard,
00:41:55are you kidding me?
00:41:56You're not even
00:41:57the CEO anymore.
00:41:58Sterling Group's money
00:41:59can be frozen
00:42:00just because you say so?
00:42:02What?
00:42:02You think you own the bank?
00:42:05Danielle,
00:42:06let Daddy show you
00:42:07a clown show.
00:42:09Vanessa,
00:42:10he's not bluffing,
00:42:11is he?
00:42:11What if he actually
00:42:12has a backup plan?
00:42:14Relax.
00:42:15He's got nothing left.
00:42:20Hello?
00:42:21What?
00:42:21All the company funds
00:42:23have been frozen?
00:42:23How is that possible?
00:42:25What happened?
00:42:26Mr. Sterling,
00:42:27please,
00:42:27release the funds.
00:42:29I'm the CEO now.
00:42:30Once the funding chain
00:42:31ruptures,
00:42:31all the company's
00:42:32debt falls on me.
00:42:33Richard,
00:42:34that's Sterling Group's money.
00:42:36You're no longer
00:42:37part of Sterling Group.
00:42:38you have no right
00:42:39to freeze those accounts.
00:42:40Sterling Group
00:42:40is a private company.
00:42:41Every cent
00:42:42of its operating capital
00:42:43sits in my personal accounts.
00:42:45Since I'm no longer
00:42:46part of Sterling Group,
00:42:47why should I keep
00:42:48funding it for you?
00:42:49Mr. Sterling,
00:42:50I was wrong.
00:42:51I don't want to be
00:42:52CEO anymore.
00:42:54Take the company back,
00:42:56please.
00:42:57Sterling Group
00:42:58is this rotten
00:42:58from the inside out.
00:43:00The CEO position
00:43:01is all yours.
00:43:03Consider it a gift.
00:43:04You useless coward.
00:43:06Sterling Group
00:43:06is a massive enterprise,
00:43:08so what if
00:43:08the funding chain ruptures?
00:43:10Just take out a loan.
00:43:11Borrow a few million.
00:43:12What are you so afraid of?
00:43:18Easy for you to say.
00:43:19Millions in debt.
00:43:20You take it from me?
00:43:21You're the CEO
00:43:22of Sterling Group now.
00:43:23That's your duty.
00:43:24To hell with being
00:43:24fucking CEO.
00:43:25You forced this damn
00:43:26position on me
00:43:26just so I take the fall
00:43:27for you.
00:43:28I'm done.
00:43:28Marcus,
00:43:29I have plenty of photos
00:43:30of us together.
00:43:31You want me to lease them all?
00:43:34I'm about to lose everything.
00:43:35Fuck the reputation.
00:43:37Who cares?
00:43:38Go ahead.
00:43:39Release them all.
00:43:40If I'm going down,
00:43:41I gotta take you with me.
00:43:45Richard,
00:43:46please.
00:43:47Don't do this to me.
00:43:48I'm begging you.
00:43:50Mr. Sterling,
00:43:50I've served this company
00:43:51for years.
00:43:53Even if I have no merit,
00:43:54at least recognize
00:43:55my diligence.
00:43:56Please give me
00:43:57one more chance.
00:44:01Danielle,
00:44:01let Daddy teach you
00:44:02a lesson.
00:44:04Showing mercy
00:44:04to people like this
00:44:05is nothing but cruelty
00:44:06to yourself.
00:44:08Richard!
00:44:11Mr. Sterling!
00:44:16This is all
00:44:17your fault!
00:44:18Look at what you've done!
00:44:25How dare you!
00:44:26Vanessa,
00:44:27what on earth
00:44:28just happened?
00:44:29It's all because of you!
00:44:31You hag ruined
00:44:32my perfect future!
00:44:33Oh, Lord!
00:44:34Why is my life
00:44:34so miserable?
00:44:36From now on,
00:44:37deal with your own
00:44:37problems by yourself.
00:44:39Stop dragging me
00:44:40into your goddamn mess!
00:44:41No!
00:44:42No!
00:44:43No!
00:44:43Richard Sterling,
00:44:44I will make you
00:44:45regret this.
00:44:46I swear.
00:44:52I'm sorry,
00:44:53I'm sorry, Danielle.
00:44:54I thought Vanessa
00:44:55would be like your mom,
00:44:56kind,
00:44:57gentle.
00:44:57I never thought
00:44:58she and those people
00:44:59would hurt you like this.
00:45:00It's okay, Dad.
00:45:01It's over now.
00:45:02And at least we found out
00:45:03who she really is
00:45:04before it was too late,
00:45:05right?
00:45:07Danielle,
00:45:07you are the Sterling's heiress.
00:45:09Sometimes you need
00:45:10to carry yourself
00:45:10like one.
00:45:11Why are you suddenly
00:45:12saying this, Dad?
00:45:13Because people aware
00:45:14of who you are
00:45:15don't dare touch you.
00:45:18Mom once told me
00:45:19that the Sterling family's
00:45:20success was built
00:45:21on the trust
00:45:21of ordinary people.
00:45:23She said I should
00:45:23never forget
00:45:24where we came from.
00:45:27I would listen to Mom,
00:45:29stay grounded,
00:45:30like a normal girl.
00:45:39I thought once
00:45:40you were with
00:45:40Richard Sterling,
00:45:41you'd forget all
00:45:42about an old friend
00:45:43like me.
00:45:44I'm sorry.
00:45:49Don't apologize.
00:45:50You didn't want me
00:45:51and I kept chasing.
00:45:52That's on me.
00:45:52I have nowhere else
00:45:53to turn.
00:45:54You're the last one
00:45:55I can come to.
00:45:57After what Richard
00:45:58did to me,
00:45:59you gotta help me
00:46:01get even.
00:46:02Help me take him down
00:46:04and I'll do
00:46:05anything you want.
00:46:07Anything.
00:46:12got it.
00:46:13I'm on my way.
00:46:13I'm on my way.
00:46:41Got it.
00:46:42I'm on my way.
00:46:44Danielle,
00:46:45something came up
00:46:45that I need to handle.
00:46:47Go ahead
00:46:47into the ballroom.
00:46:48I'll be right back.
00:46:49I'll be back
00:46:50before you know it.
00:46:52I'll be back before you know it.
00:47:05I'll be back before you know it.
00:47:11Have you ever seen
00:47:12Mr. Sterling's daughter?
00:47:13I heard she's gorgeous.
00:47:15Whatever.
00:47:16If you can get close to her,
00:47:17you get close to Mr. Sterling.
00:47:18Exactly.
00:47:19The Sterling family
00:47:19is the wealthiest
00:47:20in the state.
00:47:21Just lionize them good
00:47:22and you're set for life.
00:47:36I'm so sorry.
00:47:39That was completely my fault.
00:47:41Where did you crawl in from?
00:47:45Where did you crawl in from?
00:47:46Do you have any idea
00:47:47how much this dress costs?
00:47:49Can you even afford
00:47:50to replace it?
00:47:51I'm really sorry.
00:47:52I can have the dress
00:47:53dry cleaned for you.
00:47:54Dry cleaned?
00:47:54You think this is some
00:47:56off the rack bargain?
00:47:57This is a limited edition
00:47:59haute couture piece.
00:48:02You're not leaving today
00:48:03unless you buy me a new one.
00:48:05Isn't that the daughter
00:48:06from the Whitmore family?
00:48:07That girl is in trouble.
00:48:09Monica is notorious
00:48:11for being difficult.
00:48:12Wait for the show.
00:48:13I'm happy to compensate you,
00:48:15but that dress
00:48:15isn't a limited edition
00:48:16haute couture piece.
00:48:17It's just a knockoff.
00:48:25What do you know about fashion?
00:48:27It was personally designed for me
00:48:29and you dare call it a knockoff?
00:48:31This design is by
00:48:32Alexandro Ferretti from Milan,
00:48:34one of a kind in the world.
00:48:36And that one of a kind piece
00:48:37is hanging in my closet right now.
00:48:39So yes,
00:48:40I know exactly what I'm talking about.
00:48:42Oh please,
00:48:43you show up to a gala
00:48:44in your poor school uniform
00:48:45and you're claiming
00:48:46you own a one-of-a-kind Ferrell already.
00:48:48That's literally
00:48:48the funniest thing
00:48:49I've heard all night.
00:48:50Believe it or not,
00:48:51I'm not going to waste
00:48:51my time arguing with you.
00:48:58What else?
00:49:01You don't want to pay?
00:49:02Fine.
00:49:03Get on your knees
00:49:04and apologize
00:49:04then maybe I'll be generous
00:49:06enough to let you off.
00:49:12Well, well.
00:49:14Isn't she from the class
00:49:15next of ours?
00:49:17Brandon?
00:49:18You know her?
00:49:19Wouldn't say I know her.
00:49:20She's the first place
00:49:21in our grade.
00:49:22What's her name again?
00:49:23I don't recall.
00:49:24So what?
00:49:24She'll end up working
00:49:25for people like us anyway.
00:49:27Monica,
00:49:28even the fortune of her family
00:49:29probably can't afford
00:49:30a single thread on your dress.
00:49:31Making her pay for it?
00:49:32She couldn't do it
00:49:33in a lifetime.
00:49:34Exactly.
00:49:35Messing with people like her
00:49:36is beneath us.
00:49:37Just kick her out.
00:49:39Count yourself lucky today.
00:49:41This is a birthday gala
00:49:42for the Sterling heiress.
00:49:43Not a place for someone like you.
00:49:45Get out.
00:49:46What makes you think
00:49:47I don't belong here?
00:49:48Pardon?
00:49:49This is Brandon Harper,
00:49:51heir to the Harper Group.
00:49:53This is Jessica Cole,
00:49:55niece of Mr. Sterling's
00:49:56future wife.
00:49:57And I'm Monica Whitmore,
00:50:00daughter of Whitmore Group CFO.
00:50:02We represent the most powerful
00:50:04families in this state.
00:50:05And you?
00:50:06A nobody in school uniform?
00:50:08What makes you belong here?
00:50:11Because this is my birthday party.
00:50:20did all that studying fry your brain?
00:50:23Do you even know
00:50:24who tonight's guest of honor
00:50:25actually is?
00:50:26Don't waste your breath
00:50:27on this ridiculous clown.
00:50:29How could she possibly know?
00:50:30She's just embarrassed
00:50:31that we called her out,
00:50:32so she's making things up
00:50:33to save face.
00:50:35All right, all right.
00:50:35We won't make this difficult.
00:50:36If you still want to stay
00:50:37at this party, fine.
00:50:38Show us what you brought.
00:50:40What?
00:50:40Your gift for the Sterling
00:50:41heir miss, obviously.
00:50:42Don't tell me you came here
00:50:43empty handed just to
00:50:44freeload on those food and drinks.
00:50:46It's my own birthday party.
00:50:48Why would I bring myself a gift?
00:50:52Pathetic.
00:50:53Still staying in character.
00:50:55What makes you so sure
00:50:56I'm pretending?
00:50:57Seriously?
00:50:58I can prove you're a fraud
00:50:59with just a few random questions.
00:51:01Go ahead.
00:51:02Do you know how much
00:51:03is the tasting menu
00:51:04at the most exclusive
00:51:06five-star restaurant in the state?
00:51:07I usually just eat
00:51:10home-cooked meals.
00:51:11Have you ever booked out
00:51:12a concert hall
00:51:12for a private performance
00:51:14by a world-class pianist?
00:51:16Fine.
00:51:17Let me ask you something simpler.
00:51:18Have you ever been
00:51:19to a yacht party?
00:51:20I'm not interested
00:51:21in that sort of thing.
00:51:25Three questions.
00:51:26And you couldn't even
00:51:28answer a single one.
00:51:29Still gonna claim
00:51:30you're not a fraud?
00:51:31Why would I need to know
00:51:32any of those things?
00:51:34You wouldn't get it.
00:51:36That's the bare minimum
00:51:37of how the wealthy live.
00:51:39Is that so?
00:51:40Well then,
00:51:41I have a few questions
00:51:43for you.
00:51:45Do you know
00:51:46the practical applications
00:51:47of calculus
00:51:48or the principles
00:51:49behind the photo-electroc effect?
00:51:50Okay, how about this?
00:51:52Do you know
00:51:52what a SWATH analysis is?
00:51:53Or the SMART framework?
00:51:55Those are basic
00:51:56management concepts.
00:51:57Didn't your private
00:51:58tutors cover that?
00:51:59What's the point
00:52:00of learning any of that?
00:52:02So all you know
00:52:03is how to eat,
00:52:04drink,
00:52:05and party.
00:52:06Not a single
00:52:07useful thing
00:52:08in your heads.
00:52:12What's so funny?
00:52:13How adorable.
00:52:14You think we need
00:52:14to know any of that?
00:52:15That's stuff for people
00:52:16like you to worry about
00:52:17because you're the ones
00:52:18who'll be working for us,
00:52:19serving us.
00:52:20We were born
00:52:21to enjoy life.
00:52:22If we need someone,
00:52:23we write a check
00:52:23and hire them.
00:52:24Why would we bother
00:52:24with any of that?
00:52:25I thought she was
00:52:26not going to say
00:52:27something impressive.
00:52:28Turns out she's
00:52:29just a joke.
00:52:30My dad once told me
00:52:30that shirt sleeves
00:52:31to shirt sleeves
00:52:32in three generations.
00:52:33I never understood
00:52:34what he meant
00:52:35until I met
00:52:36the three of you.
00:52:36What's that supposed
00:52:37to mean?
00:52:38Other than frittling
00:52:39away your parents' money,
00:52:40what else can you
00:52:41actually do?
00:52:43How dare you
00:52:43speak to me like that?
00:52:44You clearly
00:52:45don't know your place.
00:52:46We gave you a chance
00:52:47and you threw it
00:52:48in our faces.
00:52:49What's wrong?
00:52:51Did I hit a nerve?
00:52:59You have no idea
00:53:00who you're messing with.
00:53:01Keep this up
00:53:02and we'll make sure
00:53:03you never show
00:53:03your face anywhere again.
00:53:05Remember this next time
00:53:06when you talk
00:53:07to people like us,
00:53:08show some respect.
00:53:11get your ass in the ladies' room,
00:53:13kneel by the toilet
00:53:15and apologize
00:53:15or I'll make sure
00:53:17you never have
00:53:17a peaceful day again.
00:53:18Miss Whitmore,
00:53:20please give the girl
00:53:21a break.
00:53:22She's just a kid.
00:53:23Mind your own business!
00:53:25Don't get involved.
00:53:26Those three come
00:53:27from powerful families.
00:53:28We can't afford
00:53:28to cross them.
00:53:29You know,
00:53:30I heard from kids
00:53:31at school that
00:53:32you don't even have
00:53:32a mother.
00:53:33No wonder
00:53:34you turned out
00:53:35like this.
00:53:36No manners at all.
00:53:37A motherless nobody
00:53:39acting like a rabid dog.
00:53:41What's wrong?
00:53:42Did we hit a nerve?
00:53:44Maybe you don't
00:53:45have a father either.
00:53:47That would explain
00:53:47no one's here
00:53:48to stop you
00:53:49from wandering
00:53:49into places
00:53:50you don't belong.
00:53:53That's enough!
00:53:54All of you!
00:53:55Stop!
00:54:01Monica,
00:54:01why are you
00:54:02lowering yourself
00:54:03to this level?
00:54:04Dad,
00:54:04she started it!
00:54:05If a stray dog
00:54:06bites you,
00:54:07are you gonna
00:54:07bite it back?
00:54:08Getting tangled up
00:54:09with someone like her
00:54:10only drags you down.
00:54:12Okay.
00:54:14You must be
00:54:15some security guard's
00:54:16daughter.
00:54:17This is a private
00:54:18event for distinguished
00:54:19guests.
00:54:19It's not the place
00:54:20for you.
00:54:23Take the money
00:54:24and get out.
00:54:25Don't be an eyesore.
00:54:26Tonight is your chance
00:54:27to get close
00:54:28to the Sterling
00:54:29airgress.
00:54:29Seize it properly.
00:54:31Don't worry,
00:54:31Mr. Whitmore.
00:54:32Once my aunt
00:54:33marries Mr. Sterling,
00:54:34I'll be the her cousin.
00:54:36With me as the bridge,
00:54:37Monica and the
00:54:38Sterling heiress
00:54:38will be best friends
00:54:39in no time.
00:54:40Put in a good word
00:54:41for me too.
00:54:42When I'm older,
00:54:42I'll propose to the
00:54:43Sterling heiress,
00:54:44then the Harper family
00:54:45and the Sterling family
00:54:46can join forces.
00:54:48Mr. Sterling will
00:54:48be here shortly.
00:54:50I was just promoted
00:54:51to CFO,
00:54:52keep your heads down
00:54:53and behave.
00:54:54I heard Danielle
00:54:55Sterling is the most
00:54:56elegant air mess
00:54:57in the state.
00:54:58I can't wait to meet
00:54:59her.
00:54:59It would be amazing
00:55:00if we could be friends.
00:55:05Why are you still here?
00:55:06Get out!
00:55:09If you don't want
00:55:10to deal with me,
00:55:11then let's just stay
00:55:11out of each other's way.
00:55:13That's it.
00:55:13Did you not hear
00:55:14what Mr. Whitmore
00:55:15just said?
00:55:16He gave you an easy
00:55:17way out.
00:55:18Don't be ungrateful.
00:55:19Take your charity money
00:55:20and get lost.
00:55:21If you upset the
00:55:22Sterling airgress tonight,
00:55:24can you handle
00:55:24the consequences?
00:55:25It's you who should
00:55:26leave right away.
00:55:27This is my birthday party
00:55:29and you're not welcome.
00:55:30Still keeping up
00:55:31this act?
00:55:32Unbelievable.
00:55:40Let me handle this.
00:55:44You're dead.
00:55:46You hear me?
00:55:47Dead!
00:55:54Ladies and gentlemen,
00:55:56Mr. Sterling has arrived.
00:56:09I told you Mr. Sterling
00:56:11was coming
00:56:12and you're still
00:56:12making trouble?
00:56:13Mr. Whitmore,
00:56:15this isn't Monica's fault.
00:56:17That girl wouldn't back off.
00:56:18She kept provoking Monica.
00:56:22Mr. Sterling,
00:56:23that girl somehow
00:56:24snuck into the gala.
00:56:25I'll have her removed
00:56:26immediately.
00:56:27Get out of here!
00:56:28Now!
00:56:32This is your daughter?
00:56:34Yes, sir.
00:56:35My daughter,
00:56:36Monica.
00:56:36Monica,
00:56:37say hello to Mr. Sterling.
00:56:38Hello, Mr. Sterling.
00:56:40Um,
00:56:41where's the birthday girl?
00:56:42Didn't she come with you?
00:56:43And you are?
00:56:44Mr. Sterling,
00:56:46my father is the CEO
00:56:47of Harper Group.
00:56:48He's overseas on business
00:56:49and sent me to attend
00:56:50Danielle's birthday gala
00:56:51on his behalf.
00:56:52I'm Vanessa Cole's niece.
00:56:54Once you and my aunt
00:56:55get married,
00:56:56you'll be my uncle.
00:56:57Your families are done.
00:56:59All three of them.
00:57:00And there will be
00:57:01no coming back.
00:57:03Mr. Sterling,
00:57:04what,
00:57:05what do you mean by that?
00:57:11Danielle?
00:57:13Dad!
00:57:22Mr. Sterling,
00:57:24are you sure
00:57:24you haven't made a mistake?
00:57:26She,
00:57:27she can't possibly
00:57:28be the heiress.
00:57:30I think I know
00:57:32my own daughter.
00:57:33No, no,
00:57:34no, Mr. Sterling,
00:57:35that's not what I meant.
00:57:36I just,
00:57:37I just thought...
00:57:38Shut your mouth!
00:57:42Mr. Sterling,
00:57:43it's just kids being kids.
00:57:45You know how they are.
00:57:46Surely there's no need
00:57:47to take it seriously.
00:57:49The fault lies
00:57:50with how you raised her.
00:57:53The Whitmore family
00:57:54is done for.
00:57:56They just crossed
00:57:57Mr. Sterling's daughter.
00:58:00The Harpers and the Coles
00:58:01are going down too.
00:58:02Mr. Sterling said
00:58:03he'd deal with
00:58:03all three families.
00:58:06Dad, I told you,
00:58:07I don't like big events
00:58:08like this.
00:58:09Everyone here
00:58:09is just trying
00:58:10to use my birthday
00:58:11to get something.
00:58:12Not a single person
00:58:13came because they
00:58:13actually care.
00:58:15You're right.
00:58:16I should have known better.
00:58:17I promise.
00:58:18I'll never let you
00:58:19go through something
00:58:20like this again.
00:58:21Mr. Sterling,
00:58:22I'm so sorry
00:58:23that I was out of line.
00:58:24I lost my temper.
00:58:25Here,
00:58:26whatever I did to you,
00:58:28you can do it back to me
00:58:29ten times over,
00:58:30a hundred times over,
00:58:31as long as it makes
00:58:32you feel better.
00:58:35Mr. Sterling,
00:58:35we all prepared
00:58:36generous birthday gifts
00:58:37for you.
00:58:37Please,
00:58:38for the sake
00:58:39of our good intentions,
00:58:40don't hold this
00:58:41against us.
00:58:42Ms. Sterling,
00:58:42we're family.
00:58:43My aunt is your
00:58:44future ste...
00:58:45Not anymore.
00:58:48Vanessa Cole
00:58:48was having affairs
00:58:49with every board member
00:58:50and executive
00:58:51at Sterling Group,
00:58:52including the current
00:58:54CFO,
00:58:54Raymond Whitler.
00:58:56A woman like that
00:58:57has no place
00:58:57in my life.
00:58:58Mr. Sterling,
00:59:00that's not true.
00:59:00I swear.
00:59:04Danielle,
00:59:04I made you a promise.
00:59:09Anyone who dares
00:59:10lay a hand
00:59:11on my daughter
00:59:12can't get away with it.
00:59:15This is all your fault.
00:59:17I told you both
00:59:18to back off,
00:59:19but you wouldn't listen.
00:59:20Mr. Sterling,
00:59:21Ms. Sterling,
00:59:22this has nothing
00:59:23to do with me.
00:59:24I was dragged into it
00:59:25by these two.
00:59:25That's a lie.
00:59:26You were the one
00:59:27showing off in front of Monica.
00:59:28You were the one
00:59:29who grabbed her
00:59:29by the throat.
00:59:30If you and Brandon
00:59:31Hidden kept egging me on,
00:59:32I never would have
00:59:33gone that far.
00:59:34Don't twist things.
00:59:35You were the one
00:59:35who started it.
00:59:36We were just
00:59:36backing you up.
00:59:37Did I ask for your help?
00:59:39Mind your own business.
00:59:40Don't forget,
00:59:42your father's position
00:59:43at Sterling Group
00:59:44only exists
00:59:44because my aunt
00:59:45has been protecting
00:59:46your family.
00:59:47Don't you dare
00:59:47mention your aunt
00:59:48to me.
00:59:49My position as CFO
00:59:51was earned
00:59:51through Mr. Sterling's
00:59:52recognition
00:59:53and my own ability.
00:59:54It has nothing
00:59:55to do with that woman.
00:59:57There's one more thing
00:59:58I forgot to mention.
01:00:00I've resigned
01:00:00from all positions
01:00:01at Sterling Group.
01:00:02The person actually
01:00:03running things
01:00:04behind the Sayers
01:00:05now is Vanessa Cole.
01:00:06Richard broke things
01:00:07off with Vanessa
01:00:08but handed Sterling Group
01:00:09over to her?
01:00:10That doesn't make sense.
01:00:11The power in our state
01:00:12is shifting.
01:00:13We'd better pick
01:00:14the right side.
01:00:15Jessica,
01:00:16I've actually always had
01:00:17tremendous respect
01:00:18for your aunt.
01:00:19Like, I thinks not
01:00:20until a few well.
01:00:22Jessica,
01:00:23I was just joking earlier.
01:00:24Don't take it seriously.
01:00:26Yeah, we're best friends.
01:00:28Friends mess around
01:00:28sometimes, right?
01:00:31Since you're no longer
01:00:32the chairman
01:00:33of Sterling Group,
01:00:34there are certain things
01:00:35I should say plainly.
01:00:38Go on.
01:00:39Without Sterling Group
01:00:40behind you, Richard,
01:00:41you're nothing!
01:00:43And?
01:00:44Everyone in this room
01:00:45is somebody.
01:00:47You no longer
01:00:49belong here.
01:00:50Don't you think
01:00:50you're getting ahead
01:00:51of yourself?
01:00:52You've been in the game
01:00:53long enough to know
01:00:54a man without money
01:00:55or power
01:00:56is worth less than
01:00:56the dirt
01:00:57on someone's shoe.
01:00:58Richard,
01:00:59you nearly ruined
01:01:00my life tonight.
01:01:01I'll make sure
01:01:02my father teaches
01:01:03you a good lesson.
01:01:04You tried to ruin
01:01:05my friendship
01:01:05with Jessica?
01:01:06Get down
01:01:07and apologize
01:01:08to us right now!
01:01:09No wonder
01:01:10my aunt chose
01:01:10to leave you.
01:01:11Look at you now.
01:01:12You're not even worthy
01:01:13of carrying her shoes.
01:01:15You're all blind fools!
01:01:18Sterling Group
01:01:18is nothing but a fraction
01:01:19of Mr. Sterling's portfolio.
01:01:21Mr. Sterling
01:01:21also controls
01:01:22Meridian Bank,
01:01:23Summit Holdings,
01:01:25Ironclat Mining,
01:01:26and dozens of other
01:01:27enterprises and
01:01:28organizations across
01:01:29the globe.
01:01:30If his total wealth
01:01:31were made public,
01:01:32he would absolutely
01:01:33be the richest man
01:01:34in the world.
01:01:35Some of those companies,
01:01:36they're even bigger
01:01:37than Sterling Group.
01:01:39Multinational corporations.
01:01:40We've been looking
01:01:41at only our field.
01:01:42We only saw a fraction
01:01:43of the picture
01:01:44and thought we understood
01:01:44everything.
01:01:45Sterling Group's
01:01:46internal corruption
01:01:46is beyond saving.
01:01:48To me,
01:01:49it's nothing more
01:01:50than a chess piece
01:01:50I've already discarded.
01:01:52Mr. Sterling,
01:01:53please!
01:01:53I'm begging you!
01:01:54Mr. Sterling,
01:01:55I was wrong!
01:01:56Punish me!
01:01:56Just me!
01:01:57Please leave the
01:01:58Harper family
01:01:58out of this!
01:01:59Ms. Sterling,
01:02:00we truly know
01:02:01we were wrong!
01:02:02Please!
01:02:02Ms. Sterling,
01:02:03ask your father
01:02:04to have mercy on us!
01:02:06If I let you
01:02:06off the hook,
01:02:07you'll just do
01:02:08the same thing
01:02:08to someone else
01:02:09who can't fight back.
01:02:18Follow Sterling.
01:02:23Dad,
01:02:23from now on,
01:02:25let's just skip
01:02:26my birthday
01:02:26all together.
01:02:30I'm sorry.
01:02:31I never expected
01:02:32to turn out this way.
01:02:34I'm not blaming you.
01:02:36I just don't like
01:02:37being around people
01:02:37who use my birthday
01:02:38to get what they want.
01:02:40Danielle,
01:02:41I promise you,
01:02:42this will never
01:02:42happen again.
01:02:48What is it?
01:02:49Danielle,
01:02:50I won't throw
01:02:51any more big parties,
01:02:52but your birthday
01:02:53still has to be celebrated.
01:02:55From now on,
01:02:55I'll celebrate
01:02:56your birthday with you.
01:02:57Just us two.
01:02:59No strangers,
01:03:00no nonsense.
01:03:01Wait here for a second.
01:03:03I had a cake
01:03:03ordered from this shop.
01:03:04Let me go pick it up.
01:03:15Hey there,
01:03:16little niece.
01:03:17Waiting for your uncle?
01:03:18You!
01:03:19Dad!
01:03:21Dad!
01:03:32Sous-titrage Société Radio-Canada
01:03:54Sous-titrage Société Radio-Canada
01:04:23Vanessa, we've known each other since grade school.
01:04:27All these years, no matter which man you chose, I've always been there for you.
01:04:33Without a single complaint. Right?
01:04:36Victor, why are you bringing this up now? I never forced you to do anything.
01:04:39I'm just saying, no matter what, I'll always have your back.
01:04:43I brought his daughter here to create an opportunity. To force Richard to sit down and have a proper conversation
01:04:48with you.
01:04:49But...
01:04:49Trust me. After tonight, you'll be Mrs. Sterling.
01:04:57Victor, it's Richard!
01:05:03Where have you taken my daughter?
01:05:05Dad, save me.
01:05:07Danielle, don't be afraid. Daddy's coming right now.
01:05:09Mr. Sterling, what an honor.
01:05:11I've admired you for a long time.
01:05:13Who are you?
01:05:14Let my daughter go, or you'll regret this.
01:05:17Relax, Mr. Sterling.
01:05:18I simply wanted to invite you over for a chat.
01:05:22What will it take for you to let her go?
01:05:24I'll send someone to bring you here. But let me be clear up front.
01:05:29Come alone. If you bring anyone else. Or contact law enforcement.
01:05:34I can't guarantee your daughter's safety.
01:05:37Fine. You have my word.
01:05:41Sir, if you go alone, both you and the young miss could be in danger.
01:05:44Their target is me. Only if I go alone, will they release Danielle.
01:05:52Check your phone.
01:05:54Do exactly as I've instructed.
01:05:56Understood, sir.
01:05:59Mr. Sterling, please.
01:06:02Get in.
01:06:10Victor, he's here.
01:06:18Danielle, did they hurt you?
01:06:24Mr. Sterling, so glad you could finally join us.
01:06:27Say what you need to say.
01:06:31No need to rush, Mr. Sterling.
01:06:33Relax. I'm not going to make things difficult.
01:06:36I've always had great respect for you, Mr. Sterling.
01:06:39It's just that you're such a busy man.
01:06:41Getting a face-to-face meeting wasn't exactly easy.
01:06:43So I had to get creative.
01:06:50You own a mine on the south side of town.
01:06:52Currently, you only do extraction and raw sales.
01:06:55I run a refinery operation that could partner with your mine perfectly.
01:06:59I'd be honored if you'd consider the collaboration.
01:07:02Signing with you would break faith with my existing partners.
01:07:06Why don't you take a look at my sincerity first?
01:07:21Victor, what are you doing?
01:07:27Mom!
01:07:38You really thought I was your lapdog, didn't you?
01:07:41All these years, I treated you well because you moved up the social ladder.
01:07:46You were useful to me.
01:07:47You've been lying to me this whole time.
01:07:52Mr. Sterling, this woman has cheated on you so many times
01:07:55and she tried to use me to destroy you.
01:07:58Today, I present them to you as a gift.
01:08:01Consider it my sincerity.
01:08:03Do you like it?
01:08:04Victor, whatever my sister did is on her.
01:08:06Why are you dragging me into this?
01:08:08You borrowed money from me to gamble.
01:08:10Already forgotten?
01:08:13Maybe this is God's punishment
01:08:15for all the terrible things I've done in my life.
01:08:18Miss Sterling, today is your birthday.
01:08:20Consider this my birthday gift to you.
01:08:22These people who bullied you are all yours now.
01:08:24Punish them however you see fit.
01:08:26These people do deserve to face the consequences of what they've done.
01:08:31Richard, I don't expect your forgiveness,
01:08:34but I served you faithfully for three years.
01:08:37Please, at least give me a way out.
01:08:40Mr. Sterling, I'm just a nobody.
01:08:41One of those riffragg.
01:08:42Getting even with someone like me is beneath you.
01:08:45Mr. Sterling, if you'd rather not get your hands dirty,
01:08:48I'd be happy to handle them for you.
01:08:50But my daughter is here.
01:08:51As a father, I won't teach her hatred.
01:08:54Leave the state and never come back.
01:08:57I'll go.
01:08:57I'll go.
01:08:58I swear I will never appear in front of you again.
01:09:01Get out!
01:09:09Get out!
01:09:11Mr. Sterling, you truly are a generous man.
01:09:14Seems my gift wasn't quite to your liking.
01:09:18Mr. Crane, they were nothing but a pretext for you to get this meeting.
01:09:21Then let's get back to business.
01:09:23About the mining partnership.
01:09:25If you genuinely want that contract, earn it through legitimate means.
01:09:28Mr. Sterling, once we sign the contract, everything becomes legitimate.
01:09:33Isn't it?
01:09:39Mr. Crane, do you know what helped me to get to where I am today?
01:09:44Opportunity and capability.
01:09:48Then it was family connections.
01:09:51Getting warmer.
01:09:52Forgive me for being slow.
01:09:54Please, just spell it out.
01:09:55Because I have a group of loyal brothers who've had my back every step of the way.
01:10:01They're the ones who put me where I am.
01:10:04And what does that have to do with our collaboration?
01:10:07It means that even when I walk into a place like this alone, I still hold the winning hand.
01:10:16You ungrateful idiot!
01:10:17Do you have any idea who Richard Sterling is?
01:10:20Let them go!
01:10:21Now!
01:10:21Dad, stay out of this.
01:10:23Stay out of it?
01:10:24How can I stay out of it?
01:10:26Your mother, your wife, your children.
01:10:28They're all surrounded by Sterling's people.
01:10:31Right now!
01:10:32Let them go right now!
01:10:34You want to get us all killed?
01:10:37Mr. Crane, until we meet again.
01:10:41How could you?
01:10:44Impossible!
01:10:47I've decided to dissolve the entire Sterling group utterly.
01:10:51Dad, that's decades of your life's work.
01:10:54Don't worry.
01:10:55What's left will be more than enough for the two of us.
01:10:57For the rest of our lives.
01:10:59That's not what I mean.
01:11:01Money is just numbers on a page.
01:11:04Danielle, you are my life's work.
01:11:09You are my life's work.
01:11:11woke up to come in.
01:11:12Geez.
01:11:15Eric sportxy you are doing live life.
