00:00:09Miss Sterling
00:00:11Miss Sterling
00:00:13Tonight is your birthday gala
00:00:14Mr. Sterling sent us to escort you to the venue
00:00:17Mike, please
00:00:18How many times do I have to tell you?
00:00:21Could 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, now please leave before my classmates see you
00:00:32Unbelievable
00:00:32The venue is miles away from her school
00:00:34How 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
00:00:42Danielle is going to be my stepdaughter soon
00:00:45I've been looking forward to meet her
00:00:47If I want to ensure my place as Mrs. Sterling
00:00:49I need to win over the one person he cares about most
00:00:53His daughter
00:01:00The man is older than you
00:01:02He's got a kid from before
00:01:04And you're not even asking for a prenup?
00:01:06Are you out of your mind?
00:01:08Mom, trust me
00:01:10My fiancé is no ordinary man
00:01:13Fine, you want to marry him?
00:01:15Then at least get something out of it
00:01:17I want $100,000
00:01:18No, $200,000 as a gift
00:01:21Minimum
00:01:22Alright, alright mom
00:01:23I'll send you a surprise when the time comes
00:01:25Gotta go, bye
00:01:26Hey
00:01:28You are already babysitting someone else for free?
00:01:30Try and surprise me
00:01:32I'll believe it when I see it
00:01:33Who 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
00:02:11Alright, let's go
00:02:12Thanks
00:02:13It'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
00:02:28That much?
00:02:30I'll leave, it's okay
00:02:35Hold on
00:02:36You're the one who knocked me down
00:02:39You're not leaving until you pay this bill
00:02:45Hold on
00:02:46You're the one who knocked me down
00:02:49You're not leaving until you pay this bill
00:02:52Ma'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?
00:02:59Please
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
00:03:11You're paying
00:03:12Every single cent
00:03:15End of discussion
00:03:17That's not fair
00:03:18I didn't hit you and that's the truth
00:03:21What's the point of arguing back and forth?
00:03:23If you want the truth
00:03:24Just call the police and check the street cameras
00:03:27I don't need cameras
00:03:29I was there
00:03:30I know exactly what happened
00:03:32If she didn't hit me
00:03:33Why did she bring me to the hospital?
00:03:37Lady, 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!
00:03:49Who the fuck asked for your opinion?
00:03:52How could you...
00:03:56Watch your mouth for God's sake!
00:03:58So what?
00:03:59Who 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
00:04:18You'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?
00:04:29She's about to become the mother-in-law of Richard Sterling
00:04:33The CEO of Sterling Group
00:04:34My dad?
00:04:37Richard Sterling
00:04:38That's the wealthiest man in the entire state
00:04:43Tyler!
00:04:45Your sister's fiancé is really Richard Sterling?
00:04:48The CEO of Sterling Group?
00:04:50Of course, Mom
00:04:52Once my sister marries Mr. Sterling
00:04:54It's only a matter of time
00:04:56Before I move up to a senior position at Sterling Group
00:04:59Wonderful!
00:05:01The coal is finally going places!
00:05:07Weren'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
00:05:13Mr. Sterling personally invited our whole family to dinner tonight
00:05:16I came to pick you up
00:05:17But someone on the street said you were taken to the hospital
00:05:19What happened?
00:05:20This gang right here!
00:05:21She knocked me down
00:05:23Refused to pay my medical bills
00:05:25And even talked back to me!
00:05:26So 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
00:05:36And 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!
00:05:44You'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
00:05:55If you can't keep it down, I'm calling security
00:05:58A 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
00:06:09You're disturbing other patients
00:06:11Either keep your voices down or take it outside
00:06:13Now
00:06:14My mother is your patient too
00:06:16What do you mean take it outside?
00:06:23Vanessa, sweetheart
00:06:24Come to the hospital right now
00:06:25And bring your fiancé
00:06:26Your 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
00:06:43Vanessa, what's wrong?
00:06:48Honey, something came up with my mom
00:06:50Let 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
00:07:00It's not safe for her to ride all that way alone
00:07:03Alright
00:07:04If you need anything, call me
00:07:06I will
00:07:09Get a few guys and meet me at the hospital
00:07:11Let me see who has the nerve to mess with my mother
00:07:17Who the fuck is making trouble at this point?
00:07:20The four of you?
00:07:21Go bring those gifts over
00:07:22Yes, ma'am
00:07:27Who is bullying my mother?
00:07:29Ma'am, this is a hospital
00:07:31Please keep it down
00:07:32Am I the one making noise?
00:07:34Or are you?
00:07:35This is Mrs. Sterling
00:07:37Wife 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
00:07:55It's that hussy right there
00:07:57She knocked mom down
00:07:59And still won't admit it
00:08:01Mom
00:08:01How do you feel?
00:08:03Ouch!
00:08:04I can barely move
00:08:07Vanessa
00:08:07With mom's injuries
00:08:09We should make her pay at least
00:08:11300,000
00:08:16Is money all you ever think about?
00:08:19Maybe this lady is actually reasonable
00:08:23Ma'am, my father is
00:08:28I don't care who your father is
00:08:31And I didn't ask
00:08:35I don't care who your father is
00:08:37And I didn't ask
00:08:39That's right!
00:08:40Vanessa
00:08:41You can't just let this go
00:08:43Are you gonna let your mother get hit for nothing?
00:08:45Exactly, Vanessa
00:08:46You're Mr. Sterling's wife
00:08:48If word gets out that someone did this to our mom
00:08:50And got away with it
00:08:51Where is your dignity?
00:08:53Look at her
00:08:54Clearly from a nobody family
00:08:56Forget 300,000
00:08:57I doubt her entire family could scrape together 10
00:09:00Ma'am, I'm telling the truth
00:09:02They're falsely accusing me
00:09:04She fell on her own
00:09:05I didn't hit her
00:09:07You didn't hit her?
00:09:08Then why did you help her up?
00:09:10You're awfully good at lying for someone your age
00:09:12Dealing 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?
00:09:22I
00:09:23Yes
00:09:25Because of you
00:09:26I gotta deal with this mess instead
00:09:28Ma'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
00:09:41I 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?
00:10:09Bad signal?
00:10:11I told you to call your parents
00:10:12Not play with your gadgets
00:10:14God damn, do you speak English?
00:10:16That was my dad calling me just now
00:10:18Tyler, 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
00:10:39Now
00:10:40Who is this?
00:10:41Who I am doesn't matter
00:10:42Your 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
00:10:46But
00:10:47Don't you dare touch my daughter
00:10:48I'm on my way
00:10:50That voice
00:10:52Unbelievable
00:10:52The venue is miles away from her school
00:10:54How 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
00:11:09Step on it
00:11:10Yes, sir
00:11:15Honey, this gem necklace
00:11:17I got it from my mom
00:11:18When 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
00:11:31I know my own body
00:11:34After I'm gone
00:11:35Find Danielle a good mother
00:11:38Our child can't grow up without a mom
00:11:43Sweetheart
00:11:43I promise you
00:11:45No one will ever lay a hand on our daughter
00:11:49That voice
00:11:50Why does it sound so familiar?
00:11:56Who is your father?
00:11:57Who cares who her dad is?
00:11:59He can't be more important than my brother-in-law
00:12:01Give me the phone
00:12:11It'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?
00:12:17Your mother got hurt
00:12:18And you can't even be bothered to stand up for me?
00:12:20Mom, I have to attend my future stepdaughter's birthday gala tonight
00:12:24She's not even your real daughter
00:12:25Why do you care so much?
00:12:27Richard's daughter is the person he cares about the most in the world
00:12:30I have to make a good impression on her
00:12:32Then you'd better hurry up and give Richard a child of you two
00:12:36Once you do, trust me
00:12:38He'll forget all about that girl
00:12:41Dad will never fall in love with a woman like her
00:12:44Did 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
00:12:51He'll prove that I didn't hit anyone
00:12:53Your dad?
00:12:54Your dad is nobody!
00:12:57Let me tell you
00:12:58If your family can't pay up
00:13:00You'll all be working for us like servants
00:13:02For 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?
00:13:16Raising a daughter with no manners
00:13:18That kind of employee deserves to be fired
00:13:20It'll be a good lesson for everyone else at Sterling Group
00:13:23Learn to respect the CEO's wife
00:13:30You can't fire my dad
00:13:31Every executive in that company bows to me
00:13:34Who does your father think he is?
00:13:36What's that?
00:13:42Give it back!
00:13:43Give it back!
00:13:44Give me back!
00:13:45Where's my pendant?
00:13:49Give it back!
00:13:49This pendant looks expensive
00:13:50Might fetch a nice price
00:13:52Lucky me
00:13:53I still owe money from that poker game last month
00:13:57Vanessa
00:13:58Careful with that
00:14:03This means a lot to you
00:14:05Huh?
00:14:06It's the only thing my mom left me
00:14:07Please!
00:14:08I'm begging you!
00:14:09Give it back!
00:14:10If it's so precious
00:14:11Why didn't you protect it better?
00:14:15No!
00:14:16Please don't!
00:14:19Please
00:14:20Give it back to me
00:14:21Say it!
00:14:22Admit that you're the one who knocked my mother down
00:14:26I'm sorry
00:14:28It was my fault
00:14:29I was the one who knocked you down
00:14:32Please just give me back my pendant
00:14:38Good
00:14:39Now that you've admitted it
00:14:41Apologize to my mother
00:14:43Properly
00:14:48An apology should look like an apology
00:14:51Don't you think?
00:14:54Dad!
00:14:56Please hurry!
00:14:57Dad!
00:14:59Please hurry!
00:15:00Dad!
00:15:01Dad!
00:15:02Dad!
00:15:09My apologies
00:15:15Miss Cole
00:15:16The gifts you ordered for the young miss
00:15:17They're all ready
00:15:19Hmm
00:15:20Come in
00:15:28How much do you think all that costs?
00:15:30That's the CEO's fiance for you
00:15:33Money is no object
00:15:34All this expensive stuff wasted on someone else's leftover kid
00:15:42What a shame!
00:15:47Fanny
00:15:48How much did these take?
00:15:49Do not touch
00:15:52Come on, Fanny
00:15:53She's not even your real daughter
00:15:54Why treat this stuff like it's sacred?
00:16:00Hello?
00:16:01Who is this?
00:16:02Where exactly are you?
00:16:03I'm in the room and
00:16:05And
00:16:05I can't see you guys
00:16:07Are you
00:16:07Fuck-inged?
00:16:09Blind?
00:16:10There are people
00:16:11Everywhere in here
00:16:13How can you not see us?
00:16:15Don't try to stall for time!
00:16:20West Metro Hospital
00:16:22Room 303
00:16:25I'm in a hurry
00:16:26Don't waste my time
00:16:31Huh
00:16:32Fanny
00:16:33Aren't we at East Metro Hospital?
00:16:35You idiot!
00:16:36This is West Metro
00:16:37You dumbass can't even get an address right
00:16:40That woman's voice
00:16:41It sounded so familiar
00:16:42Could it be?
00:16:46Miss Cole?
00:16:47Your phone
00:16:53Hey babe
00:16:54What's up?
00:16:55Vanessa, where are you right now?
00:16:57I'm putting the finishing touches on Danielle's gifts
00:16:59I'll head to the gala soon
00:17:01Are you already there?
00:17:03No, I gotta be a little late or something
00:17:04Dad!
00:17:07Shut your mouth now!
00:17:09Do 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!
00:17:31You stink!
00:17:33Get away!
00:17:36You are such a bad witch!
00:17:44Banny, watch out!
00:17:54Look what you've done!
00:17:56You've ruined everything!
00:18:02This figurine was a $500,000 custom piece
00:18:06Can you even comprehend what that means?
00:18:10First she gets scammed by that woman
00:18:12Now she owes half a million
00:18:13This poor girl's life is already over
00:18:16Right
00:18:17Tonight is Danielle's birthday gala
00:18:20Now 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've been wasting my time all along
00:18:30And I won't let you off
00:18:31Not ever
00:18:33Vanessa, just say the word
00:18:35I'll handle her
00:18:36And when her parents show up
00:18:37We 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!
00:18:56I'm the director of this hospital
00:18:58I'm the director of this hospital
00:18:59A hospital director?
00:19:00So what?
00:19:01You 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 right now!
00:19:14You've spent your whole career climbing to this position
00:19:18It'd be a shame to throw it all away
00:19:20Over something this trivial like this
00:19:22You should know that the biggest hair holder of this hospital
00:19:25Is Sterling Group
00:19:28My sister is Mr. Sterling's fiancé
00:19:30Do you really want to make an enemy of us?
00:19:35You two, this girl is...
00:19:37A nobody!
00:19:38I don't care who she is
00:19:39I'm on a tight schedule
00:19:41Don't waste my time
00:19:42You heard her!
00:19:44My girl is busy!
00:19:45If you know what's good for you
00:19:47Leave!
00:19:48Also, move my mother to a VIP suite
00:19:51I don't want her sharing a room with these people
00:19:54And you, prepare another gift for Danielle
00:19:58A million dollars worth?
00:20:00Make sure it's something she'll love
00:20:02Vanny, honey, you really should give Richard a baby soon
00:20:05So you won't have to keep spoiling someone else's child
00:20:08She is Danielle!
00:20:10Danielle 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!
00:20:28Sweetie!
00:20:29This is all a misunderstanding
00:20:30I was just joking around with you
00:20:35Don't touch me!
00:20:36Sweetheart, Grandma's old and goofy!
00:20:38I 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?
00:20:46Hey, 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
00:20:57I never would have...
00:20:58Exactly!
00:21:00You should have said something earlier, sweetie!
00:21:06Danielle, 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
00:21:13It's worth two million dollars
00:21:17And this necklace
00:21:20Handcrafted by a master jeweler in Paris
00:21:22How beautiful!
00:21:25Worth three million
00:21:26That figurine...
00:21:28Sorry, I know I messed up
00:21:29Whatever!
00:21:30From now on, however many you want
00:21:32I'll buy them all for you!
00:21:34I don't want any of it!
00:21:37Danielle!
00:21:38You lost your mother so young
00:21:40Let me take good care of you
00:21:42Okay?
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!
00:21:50Wait a minute
00:21:52I know
00:21:54There's no way
00:21:55She's actually Mr. Sterling's daughter
00:21:59Tyler, what are you doing?
00:22:04Director, if you actually know the Sterling heiress
00:22:06Why didn't you just identify her face to face?
00:22:10Why make a big show of pulling out some form?
00:22:13Unless
00:22:14You've never actually met her
00:22:17I...
00:22:17Well, 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
00:22:24Her signature matches the name
00:22:26And her age also matches perfectly
00:22:30So you're basing this entire claim on a name and an age?
00:22:34Are you kidding me?
00:22:38Vanessa!
00:22:38Even 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
00:22:50Dad rarely talks about work
00:22:52Keep asking!
00:22:54Thompson, Walsh, Crawford, Henderson ring any bells?
00:22:58No
00:22:58Those are all senior executives at Sterling Group
00:23:01Even we outsiders know those names
00:23:04How could she not?
00:23:05You all heard it, right?
00:23:05She can't even answer basic questions about the company
00:23:08There's no way she's the Sterling heiress
00:23:12Unbelievable!
00:23:13Trying to impersonate my future step-granddaughter?
00:23:15You bastard must have a death wish!
00:23:21What a waste of my time!
00:23:31How much longer?
00:23:32Sir, there's an accident up ahead
00:23:34We can barely move
00:23:43Sir?
00:23:49$10,000
00:23:50I'm buying your bike
00:24:04Danielle, don't be afraid
00:24:06Daddy's almost there
00:24:08You almost had us fooled, you little con artist!
00:24:12She'd say anything to dodge responsibility
00:24:15Typical, like parent, like child
00:24:17This just got worse
00:24:19She could have settled with a payment
00:24:21But now she's impersonated Mr. Sterling's daughter
00:24:23They'll never let her go
00:24:24They say Mr. Sterling cherish his daughter more than anything
00:24:28Impersonating the Sterling heiress?
00:24:30That girl is done for
00:24:31You destroyed my gift
00:24:33And furthermore, you had the nerve
00:24:35To impersonate Danielle
00:24:36I'm gonna make sure you never forget this day
00:24:39But now she's like, you're just like a mom
00:24:43Get it back!
00:24:50No!
00:24:56Mom
00:25:04My necklace.
00:25:13Stop crying.
00:25:15The necklace is broken.
00:25:17That means mom is really gone.
00:25:22Save the sob story.
00:25:24Kicking 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?
00:25:32The figurine you smashed is worth enough to buy hundreds of thousands of those little charms.
00:25:37As 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.
00:25:48That would have been the end of it.
00:25:50But look at the mess you've made.
00:25:56A $500,000 figurine destroyed.
00:26:09A $3,000,000 necklace.
00:26:12A $2,000,000 dress.
00:26:17All ruined because of you.
00:26:19The birthday gala starts any minute now.
00:26:23How am I supposed to face Richard and Danielle?
00:26:25With empty hands.
00:26:27You tell me.
00:26:36You want to get into trouble, old man?
00:26:37Back 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.
00:26:47My mother was knocked down.
00:26:49Who's paying for that?
00:26:51My gifts are destroyed.
00:26:52Who's covering that?
00:26:53And my time?
00:26:54Who's going to give it back to me?
00:26:56My wife owns a gift boutique.
00:26:58She can have something premium prepared right away.
00:27:01You?
00:27:02You think your wife's little shop can provide gifts worthy of the Sterling family?
00:27:06And will also upgrade your mother to a VIP suite with dedicated private care.
00:27:10So, 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?
00:27:22Don't insult us!
00:27:24VIP suite?
00:27:25My leg hurts!
00:27:26I can't move!
00:27:27Just kick everyone else out and make this damn room the VIP suite!
00:27:31Problem solved!
00:27:32That's not exactly how it works.
00:27:43She disrespected my sister and my mom.
00:27:45You think I'm just going to let her off?
00:27:47Ridiculous!
00:27:49Get someone to West Metro Hospital now.
00:27:52Find out which room Danielle's is in.
00:27:54Right away, Mr. Sterling.
00:27:57You made me go through all this trouble.
00:28:00I gotta admit, you've got nerve.
00:28:02But if I don't teach you a lesson today, my name isn't Vanessa Cole.
00:28:08Director!
00:28:09Mr. Sterling from Sterling Group!
00:28:11He's on his way here right now!
00:28:13What?
00:28:16I gotta fetch Mr. Sterling in.
00:28:21What's Richard doing here?
00:28:23It's obvious.
00:28:25Mr. 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.
00:28:38Sis, Mr. Sterling really does care about you.
00:28:42He just went to pick up his daughter.
00:28:43That means he'll probably bring her along too, right?
00:28:49Vanessa, what about the gifts?
00:28:52You!
00:28:53Go prepare a new set of gifts within one hour.
00:28:55Get 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.
00:29:31If you want to cry, go cry somewhere else.
00:29:33Let me meet my future stepdaughter first.
00:29:35Then I'll deal with you and your father.
00:29:40No!
00:29:41No!
00:29:45No!
00:29:46You monster!
00:29:49She's lost her mind!
00:29:51Pull her off now!
00:29:53No!
00:29:59Why?
00:30:00Why are you doing this to me?
00:30:03Send this lunator to a mental institution!
00:30:05Lock her up and throw away the key!
00:30:08Mr. Sterling, it's the room right ahead.
00:30:12Miss 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.
00:30:26Interfere again and you're next.
00:30:41Dad!
00:30:45Honey!
00:30:48You should have told me you were coming.
00:30:54Dad!
00:30:54Sir, I'm Tyler Cole, your future brother-in-law.
00:30:58Vanessa talks about you all the time.
00:31:02Oh my, Mr. Sterling!
00:31:05How 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 stoned shut!
00:31:23Dad!
00:31:24They are bullying me!
00:31:29Get off my daughter.
00:31:31Oh, let her go.
00:31:32Quick, let her go!
00:31:38Dad.
00:31:40Are you feeling all right?
00:31:42Danielle, it's okay.
00:31:43Daddy's here now.
00:31:45Tell 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.
00:32:03I had no idea it was you.
00:32:05Yeah, this...
00:32:06We're all family here, right?
00:32:08Why didn't you say something earlier?
00:32:10It's all just a big misunderstanding.
00:32:12I tried to tell you multiple times.
00:32:15None of you would listen.
00:32:18Wow.
00:32:19Showtime.
00:32:20She messed with Richard Sterling's daughter.
00:32:23He's not going to let this slide.
00:32:24Vanessa's position as the future Mrs. Sterling?
00:32:28Gone.
00:32:30Danielle, sweetie.
00:32:32Grandma's old and senile.
00:32:34I'm just an elderly woman from the countryside.
00:32:37I don't know any better.
00:32:38Please 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, did 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.
00:33:02Look, I even prepared gifts for her.
00:33:04My dear brother-in-law, this was just, you know, a comedy of errors.
00:33:10We're all family here.
00:33:12And we didn't really lay a hand on...
00:33:15Shut up!
00:33:16Vanny, I was just trying to help...
00:33:18Get out of my sight!
00:33:22Honey, my mom and my brother were so rude.
00:33:25I'll talk to them.
00:33:26I promise.
00:33:27We've been together for three years.
00:33:29Please, don't let this ruin our...
00:33:30Dad!
00:33:31She smashed mom's necklace!
00:33:33And she threw the shatters out the window!
00:33:35Vanessa Cole, you've really outdone yourself.
00:33:43I didn't know that necklace was so important.
00:33:45What are you standing around for?
00:33:47Go find that necklace!
00:33:48If 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.
00:33:56You've been working hard.
00:33:58You must be tired.
00:34:00Honey, you forgive me?
00:34:03We're done.
00:34:06Mr. Sterling!
00:34:07Mom, what are you doing?
00:34:09Mr. Sterling, you can't break up with Vanessa!
00:34:14Please, I'm begging you!
00:34:16Vanessa is a good girl.
00:34:18She truly loves you.
00:34:19This is all my fault!
00:34:21I 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!
00:34:29Please, Mr. Sterling!
00:34:30Mom, stop!
00:34:32Please, I'm begging you!
00:34:33Stop!
00:34:37Are you really going to be this heartless?
00:34:39I 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.
00:34:46I made a mistake and I'll correct it.
00:34:49All I need is a chance.
00:34:51You know better than anyone.
00:34:54Danielle is my bottom line.
00:34:56What you did today is definitely unforgivable.
00:34:59I didn't know she was Danielle.
00:35:03If I weren't dad's daughter, would you have just kept bullying me without even letting me explain?
00:35:10Niece, 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 and never torture people who can't fight back again.
00:35:27Richard!
00:35:28You think you can just dump me at your own will?
00:35:31You think there's nothing I can do about it for real?
00:35:34Richard, don't be so cold-blooded.
00:35:37Let'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 these past three years is playing house with you?
00:35:52Darling, 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.
00:36:00Let's go.
00:36:01It's time.
00:36:06Vanessa, I'm here.
00:36:07Marcus, what are you doing here?
00:36:09Mr. Sterling, as busy as you are, you still find time for domestic drama?
00:36:14If you have something to say.
00:36:16Easy, easy.
00:36:17No need to get worked up.
00:36:19I'm just here to advise you not to break things off with Miss Cole.
00:36:25My personal life is none of your concern.
00:36:28A man who abandons his commitment so easily,
00:36:31can he really be trusted to lead Sterling Group?
00:36:34Think carefully, Mr. Sterling.
00:36:36Are you threatening me?
00:36:37I wouldn't dream of it.
00:36:39I'm simply reminding you, if the founder of Sterling Group gets voted out by his own board,
00:36:46well, that's not exactly good press, is it?
00:36:55How long has this been going on between you two?
00:36:57I'm not one of those stupid women who can't live without their man.
00:37:00Vanessa Cole!
00:37:04Marcus and I were together long before I ever met you.
00:37:06So technically, Richard, you were the one who got in the middle.
00:37:10I was kind enough to make you the main act, and now you're blaming me?
00:37:13Absolutely shameless.
00:37:16I get what I want.
00:37:18Everything else is irrelevant.
00:37:20Henceforth, you'll get nothing.
00:37:22Hold on!
00:37:23Every senior executive and board member at Sterling Group,
00:37:26I've had them wrapped around my finger.
00:37:29And I've placed plenty of loyalists who take orders only from me.
00:37:32Right now at Sterling Group, my word, carries more weight than yours, Mr. Sterling.
00:37:38Vanny, you're incredible.
00:37:40Even I couldn't pull that off.
00:37:41You idiot!
00:37:42If you can't say something useful, shut your mouth!
00:37:46Richard Sterling, I never liked you since way back.
00:37:49So 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!
00:37:56Richard, you have two choices now.
00:37:59Option one, pretend that nothing happened today, and we get married as planned.
00:38:05Option two, you get away from Sterling Group, let Marcus take over as CEO,
00:38:09and I run things from behind the scenes.
00:38:14Two options.
00:38:16Pick one, now.
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, effective immediately.
00:38:36Strip Richard Sterling of all executive authority.
00:38:41Mr. Sterling, by tomorrow morning, you will resign from the CEO position voluntarily, non-negotiable.
00:38:47Richard, oh 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 was supposed to be some big shot.
00:39:02Turns out he's nothing special after all.
00:39:05Mom, don't say that.
00:39:07No matter how great Richard is, he still ends up under my sister's thumb.
00:39:12Vanessa, if you had kind of power all along, why did you put up with him?
00:39:17Why waste your time taking care of his daughter?
00:39:21Exactly, Vanny.
00:39:22Why not just take Sterling down and let our...
00:39:26family take over completely?
00:39:28Richard is a business genius.
00:39:31He's my money-making machine.
00:39:33And you think you can replace him?
00:39:35If I hadn't been forced into a corner, I never would have shown my hand.
00:39:40Richard, if you're willing to apologize to me right now, for old times' sake, I'll let
00:39:46this go.
00:39:48I might even arrange a nice position for you at Sterling Group.
00:39:52Don't you think you're celebrating a little too early?
00:39:57I built Sterling Group from the ground up.
00:40:01You think you can just take it from me like this?
00:40:04It seems Mr. Sterling is...
00:40:08not cooperating.
00:40:10Letting you resign voluntarily was me being generous.
00:40:14Don't push your luck, Richard.
00:40:15There's no coming back.
00:40:17Since you refused to go quietly, don't blame me for being ruthless.
00:40:22This is a copy of document the board prepared in advance.
00:40:26Richard, whether you resign or not, I can replace you any time I want.
00:40:32Marcus, once you sign this, you'll be the new CEO of Sterling Group.
00:40:41Congratulations, Mr. Webb.
00:40:47Sweetheart, if you want, I'll divorce my wife today and make you the new CEO's wife.
00:40:54Vanny, you're awesome.
00:40:57The Cole family's future is all on you.
00:41:00Richard Sterling, it's time we settled our old score.
00:41:05Your daughter knocked me down.
00:41:07It is not over yet.
00:41:10Dad, what are we going to do?
00:41:13Richard, you're just a nobody now.
00:41:16Stop acting like you're still somebody.
00:41:19Pay up, or I'll make you regret it.
00:41:27You parasites.
00:41:28All you know is scheming and backstabbing.
00:41:31You don't even understand how a company actually operates.
00:41:34So what?
00:41:35Sterling Group is ours now.
00:41:38All we have to do is hire people to do the work while we sit back and count the money.
00:41:45Freeze every single account tied to Sterling Group.
00:41:48All of them.
00:41:49Immediately.
00:41:50Immediately.
00:41:53Richard, are you kidding me?
00:41:55You're not even the CEO anymore.
00:41:58Sterling Group's money can be frozen just because you say so?
00:42:01What?
00:42:02You think you own the bank?
00:42:04Danielle, let Daddy show you a clown show.
00:42:09Vanessa, he's not bluffing, is he?
00:42:11What if he actually has a backup plan?
00:42:14Relax.
00:42:15He's got nothing left.
00:42:20Hello?
00:42:20What?
00:42:21All the company funds have been frozen?
00:42:23How is that possible?
00:42:24What happened?
00:42:25Mr. Sterling, please release the funds.
00:42:28I'm the CEO now.
00:42:30Once the funding chain ruptures, all the company's debt falls on me.
00:42:32Richard, that's Sterling Group's money.
00:42:36You're no longer part of Sterling Group.
00:42:37You have no right to freeze those accounts.
00:42:39Sterling Group is a private company.
00:42:41Every cent of its operating capital sits in my personal accounts.
00:42:44Since I'm no longer part of Sterling Group, why should I keep funding it for you?
00:42:49Mr. Sterling, I was wrong.
00:42:51I don't want to be CEO anymore.
00:42:53Take the company back, please.
00:42:56Sterling Group is this rotten from the inside out.
00:42:59The CEO position is all yours.
00:43:02Consider it a gift.
00:43:04You useless coward.
00:43:05Sterling Group is a massive enterprise.
00:43:07So what if the funding chain ruptures?
00:43:09Just take out a loan.
00:43:11Borrow a few million.
00:43:12What are you so afraid of?
00:43:17Easy for you to say.
00:43:18Millions in debt.
00:43:19You take it for me?
00:43:20You're the CEO of Sterling Group now.
00:43:22That's your duty.
00:43:23To hell with being fucking CEO.
00:43:24You forced this damn position on me just so I take the fall for you.
00:43:27I'm done.
00:43:28Marcus, I have plenty of photos of us together.
00:43:30You want me to lease them all?
00:43:33I'm about to lose everything.
00:43:34Fuck the reputation.
00:43:36Who cares?
00:43:37Go ahead.
00:43:38Release them all.
00:43:39If I'm going down, I got to take you with me.
00:43:45Richard, please.
00:43:46Don't do this to me.
00:43:48I'm begging you.
00:43:49Mr. Sterling, I've served this company for years.
00:43:52Even if I have no merit, at least recognize my diligence.
00:43:55Please give me one more chance.
00:44:00Danielle, let Daddy teach you a lesson.
00:44:03Showing mercy to people like this is nothing but cruelty to yourself.
00:44:07Richard!
00:44:10Mr. Sterling!
00:44:11Mr. Sterling.
00:44:15This is all your fault!
00:44:18Look at what you've done!
00:44:24How dare you!
00:44:26Vanessa, what on earth just happened?
00:44:28It's all because of you!
00:44:30You had ruined my perfect future!
00:44:32Oh, Lord!
00:44:33Why is my life so miserable?
00:44:35From now on, deal with your own problems by yourself.
00:44:38Stop dragging me into your goddamn mess!
00:44:42Richard Sterling, I will make you regret this.
00:44:45I swear!
00:44:48I swear!
00:44:52I'm sorry, Danielle.
00:44:53I thought Vanessa would be like your mom.
00:44:55Kind, gentle.
00:44:57I never thought she and those people would hurt you like this.
00:45:00It's okay, Dad.
00:45:01It's over now.
00:45:02And at least we found out who she really is before it was too late, right?
00:45:06Danielle, you are the Sterling's heiress.
00:45:08Sometimes you need to carry yourself like one.
00:45:11Why are you suddenly saying this, Dad?
00:45:13Because people aware of who you are don't dare touch you.
00:45:17Mom once told me that the Sterling family's success was built on the trust of ordinary people.
00:45:22She said I should never forget where we came from.
00:45:27I would listen to Mom, stay grounded, like a normal girl.
00:45:38I thought once you were with Richard Sterling, you'd forget all about an old friend like me.
00:45:44I'm sorry.
00:45:48Don't apologize.
00:45:49You didn't want me and I kept chasing.
00:45:51That's on me.
00:45:52I have nowhere else to turn.
00:45:53You're the last one I can come to.
00:45:56After what Richard did to me?
00:45:59You gotta help me get even.
00:46:01Help me take him down.
00:46:03And I'll do anything you want.
00:46:06Anything.
00:46:40Got it.
00:46:41I'm on my way.
00:46:44Danielle, something came up that I need to handle.
00:46:46Go ahead into the ballroom.
00:46:47I'll be right back.
00:46:48I'll be back before you know it.
00:47:10Have you ever seen Mr. Sterling's daughter?
00:47:13I heard she's gorgeous.
00:47:15Whatever.
00:47:15If you can get close to her, you get close to Mr. Sterling.
00:47:17Exactly.
00:47:18The Sterling family is the wealthiest in the state.
00:47:20Just lionize them good and you're set for life.
00:47:35I'm so sorry.
00:47:38That was completely my fault.
00:47:41Where did you crawl in from?
00:47:44Where did you crawl in from?
00:47:46Do you have any idea how much this dress costs?
00:47:48Can you even afford to replace it?
00:47:50I'm really sorry.
00:47:51I can have the dress dry cleaned for you.
00:47:53Dry cleaned?
00:47:54You think this is some off-the-rack bargain?
00:47:57This is a limited edition haute couture piece.
00:48:01You're not leaving today unless you buy me a new one.
00:48:04Isn't that the daughter from the Whitmore family?
00:48:07That girl is in trouble.
00:48:09Monica is notorious for being difficult.
00:48:12Wait for the show.
00:48:13I'm happy to compensate you, but that dress isn't a limited edition haute couture piece.
00:48:17It's just a knockoff.
00:48:24What do you know about fashion?
00:48:27It was personally designed for me, and you dare call it a knockoff?
00:48:31This design is by Alexandro Ferretti from Milan, one of a kind in the world.
00:48:35And that one of a kind piece is hanging in my closet right now.
00:48:38So yes, I know exactly what I'm talking about.
00:48:41Oh please, you show up to a gala in your poor school uniform and you're claiming you own a one
00:48:46of a kind Ferrell already?
00:48:47That's literally the funniest thing I've heard all night.
00:48:49Believe it or not, I'm not going to waste my time arguing with you.
00:48:58What else?
00:49:00You don't want to pay?
00:49:02Fine.
00:49:03Get on your knees and apologize.
00:49:04Then maybe I'll be generous enough to let you off.
00:49:11Well, well.
00:49:13Isn't she from the class next to bars?
00:49:16Brandon?
00:49:17You know her?
00:49:18Wouldn't say I know her.
00:49:20She's the first place in our grade.
00:49:21What's her name again?
00:49:22I don't recall.
00:49:23So what?
00:49:24She'll end up working for people like us anyway.
00:49:26Monica, even the fortune of her family probably can't afford a single thread on your dress.
00:49:31Making her pay for it?
00:49:32She couldn't do it in a lifetime.
00:49:34Exactly.
00:49:34Messing with people like her is beneath us.
00:49:37Just kick her out.
00:49:38Count yourself lucky today.
00:49:40This is a birthday gala for the Sterling Heiress.
00:49:43Not a place for someone like you.
00:49:45Get out.
00:49:45What makes you think I don't belong here?
00:49:48Pardon?
00:49:49This is Brandon Harper, heir to the Harper Group.
00:49:52This is Jessica Cole, niece of Mr. Sterling's future wife.
00:49:56And I'm Monica Whitmore, daughter of Whitmore Group CFO.
00:50:01We represent the most powerful families in this state.
00:50:05And you?
00:50:05A nobody in school uniform?
00:50:07What makes you belong here?
00:50:11Because this is my birthday party.
00:50:20Did all that studying fry your brain?
00:50:22Do you even know who tonight's guest of honor actually is?
00:50:25Don't waste your breath on this ridiculous clown.
00:50:28How could she possibly know?
00:50:29She's just embarrassed that we called her out, so she's making things up to save face.
00:50:34All right, all right.
00:50:35We won't make this difficult.
00:50:36If you still want to stay at this party, fine.
00:50:38Show us what you brought.
00:50:39What?
00:50:40Your gift for the Sterling Air Miss, obviously.
00:50:42Don't tell me you came here empty-handed just to freeload on those food and drinks.
00:50:46It's my own birthday party.
00:50:47Why would I bring myself a gift?
00:50:51Pathetic.
00:50:52Still staying in character.
00:50:54What makes you so sure I'm pretending?
00:50:56Seriously?
00:50:57I can prove you're a fraud with just a few random questions.
00:51:01Go ahead.
00:51:02Do you know how much is the tasting menu at the most exclusive five-star restaurant in the state?
00:51:07I...
00:51:07I usually just eat home-cooked meals.
00:51:10Have you ever booked out a concert hall for a private performance by a world-class pianist?
00:51:15Fine.
00:51:16Let me ask you something simpler.
00:51:18Have you ever been to a yacht party?
00:51:19I'm not interested in that sort of thing.
00:51:24Three questions.
00:51:26And you couldn't even answer a single one.
00:51:29Still gonna claim you're not a fraud?
00:51:30Why would I need to know any of those things?
00:51:33You wouldn't get it.
00:51:35That's the bare minimum of how the wealthy live.
00:51:38Is that so?
00:51:40Well then, I have a few questions for you.
00:51:45Do you know the practical applications of calculus or the principles behind the photo-electroc effect?
00:51:50Okay, how about this?
00:51:51Do you know what a SWATH analysis is?
00:51:53Or the smart framework?
00:51:54Those are basic management concepts.
00:51:57Didn't your private tutors cover that?
00:51:58What's the point of learning any of that?
00:52:01So all you know is how to eat, drink, and party.
00:52:05Not a single useful thing in your heads.
00:52:11What's so funny?
00:52:12How adorable.
00:52:13You think we need to know any of that?
00:52:15That's stuff for people like you to worry about because you're the ones who'll be working for us, serving us.
00:52:19We were born to enjoy life.
00:52:21If we need someone, we write a check and hire them.
00:52:23Why would we bother with any of that?
00:52:25I thought she was not gonna say something impressive.
00:52:27Turns out she's just a joke.
00:52:29My dad once told me that shirt sleeves to shirt sleeves in three generations.
00:52:32I never understood what he meant until I met the three of you.
00:52:36What's that supposed to mean?
00:52:37Other than frittling away your parents' money, what else can you actually do?
00:52:42How dare you speak to me like that?
00:52:44You clearly don't know your place.
00:52:45We gave you a chance and you threw it in our faces.
00:52:48What's wrong?
00:52:50Did I hit a nerve?
00:52:59You have no idea who you're messing with.
00:53:01Keep this up and we'll make sure you never show your face anywhere again.
00:53:04Remember this next time, when you talk to people like us, show some respect.
00:53:11Get your ass in the ladies' room, kneel by the toilet, and apologize.
00:53:15Or I'll make sure you never have a peaceful day again.
00:53:18Miss Whitmore, please, give the girl a break.
00:53:21She's just a kid.
00:53:22Mind your own business!
00:53:24Don't get involved.
00:53:25Those three come from powerful families.
00:53:27We can't afford to cross them.
00:53:28You know, I heard from kids at school that you don't even have a mother.
00:53:32No wonder you turned out like this.
00:53:35No manners at all.
00:53:36A motherless nobody, acting like a rabid dog.
00:53:41What's wrong?
00:53:42Did we hit a nerve?
00:53:44Maybe you don't have a father either.
00:53:46That would explain no one's here to stop you from wandering into places you don't belong.
00:53:52That's enough!
00:53:54All of you, stop!
00:54:00Monica, why are you lowering yourself to this level?
00:54:03Dad, she started it!
00:54:04If a stray dog bites you, are you going to bite it back?
00:54:08Getting tangled up with someone like her only drags you down.
00:54:11Okay.
00:54:13You must be some security guard's daughter.
00:54:16This is a private event for distinguished guests.
00:54:19It's not the place for you.
00:54:22Take the money and get out.
00:54:24Don't be an eyesore.
00:54:26Tonight is your chance to get close to the Sterling Airgress.
00:54:29Seize it properly.
00:54:30Don't worry, Mr. Whitmore.
00:54:32Once my aunt marries Mr. Sterling, I'll be her cousin.
00:54:35With me as the bridge, Monica and the Sterling Heiress will be best friends in no time.
00:54:39Put in a good word for me, too.
00:54:41When I'm older, I'll propose to the Sterling Heiress.
00:54:43Then the Harper family and the Sterling family can join forces.
00:54:47Mr. Sterling will be here shortly.
00:54:49I was just promoted to CFO.
00:54:51Keep your heads down and behave.
00:54:54I heard Danielle Sterling is the most elegant air mess in the state.
00:54:57I can't wait to meet her.
00:54:59It would be amazing if we could be friends.
00:55:04Why are you still here?
00:55:05Get out!
00:55:08If you don't want to deal with me, then let's just stay out of each other's way.
00:55:12That's it.
00:55:13Did you not hear what Mr. Whitmore just said?
00:55:15He gave you an easy way out.
00:55:17Don't be ungrateful.
00:55:18Take your charity money and get lost.
00:55:21If you upset the Sterling Heiress tonight, can you handle the consequences?
00:55:24It's you who should leave right away.
00:55:26This is my birthday party and you're not welcome.
00:55:30Still keeping up this act?
00:55:32Unbelievable.
00:55:40Let me handle this.
00:55:44You're dead.
00:55:45You hear me?
00:55:47Dead!
00:55:53Ladies and gentlemen, Mr. Sterling has arrived.
00:56:09I told you Mr. Sterling was coming and you're still making trouble?
00:56:13Mr. Whitmore, this isn't Monica's fault.
00:56:16That girl wouldn't back off.
00:56:17She kept provoking Monica.
00:56:21Mr. Sterling, that girl somehow snuck into the gala.
00:56:24I'll have her removed immediately.
00:56:26Get out of here, now!
00:56:31This is your daughter?
00:56:33Yes, sir.
00:56:34My daughter, Monica.
00:56:36Monica, say hello to Mr. Sterling.
00:56:38Hello, Mr. Sterling.
00:56:40Um, where's the birthday girl?
00:56:41Didn't she come with you?
00:56:43And you are?
00:56:44Mr. Sterling, my father is the CEO of Harper Group.
00:56:47He's overseas on business and sent me to attend Danielle's birthday gala on his behalf.
00:56:51I'm Vanessa Cole's niece.
00:56:53Once you and my aunt get married, you'll be my uncle.
00:56:57Your families are done.
00:56:58All three of them.
00:56:59And there will be no coming back.
00:57:02Mr. Sterling, what do you mean by that?
00:57:11Danielle.
00:57:12Dad!
00:57:21Mr. Sterling, are you sure you haven't made a mistake?
00:57:26She, she can't possibly be the heiress.
00:57:30I think I know my own daughter.
00:57:32No, no.
00:57:33No, Mr. Sterling, that's not what I meant.
00:57:35I just, I just thought...
00:57:38Shut your mouth!
00:57:41Mr. Sterling, it's just kids being kids.
00:57:44You know how they are.
00:57:45Surely there's no need to take it seriously.
00:57:48The fault lies with how you raised her.
00:57:52The Whitmore family is done for.
00:57:55They just crossed Mr. Sterling's daughter.
00:57:59The Harpers and the Coles are going down too.
00:58:02Mr. Sterling said he'd deal with all three families.
00:58:05Dad, I told you, I don't like big events like this.
00:58:08Everyone here is just trying to use my birthday to get something.
00:58:11Not a single person came because they actually care.
00:58:15You're right.
00:58:15I should have known better.
00:58:17I promise.
00:58:18I'll never let you go through something like this again.
00:58:20Mr. Sterling, I'm so sorry that I was out of line.
00:58:23I lost my temper.
00:58:25Here, whatever I did to you, you can do it back to me ten times over, a hundred times over,
00:58:30as long as it makes you feel better.
00:58:34Mr. Sterling, we all prepared generous birthday gifts for you.
00:58:37Please, for the sake of our good intentions, don't hold this against us.
00:58:41Mr. Sterling, we're family.
00:58:42My aunt is your future ste...
00:58:44Not anymore.
00:58:47Vanessa Cole was having affairs with every board member and executive at Sterling Group,
00:58:52including the current CFO, Raymond Whittler.
00:58:55A woman like that has no place in my life.
00:58:58Mr. Sterling, that's not true.
00:58:59I swear...
00:59:03Danielle, I made you a promise.
00:59:08Anyone who dares lay a hand on my daughter can't get away with it.
00:59:14This is all your fault!
00:59:16I told you both to back off, but you wouldn't listen!
00:59:20Mr. Sterling, Ms. Sterling, this has nothing to do with me.
00:59:23I was dragged into it by these two.
00:59:25That's a lie!
00:59:26You were the one showing off in front of Monica!
00:59:28You were the one who grabbed her by the throat!
00:59:29If you and Brandon Hidden kept egging me on, I never would have gone that far!
00:59:33Don't twist things!
00:59:34You were the one who started it!
00:59:35We were just backing you up!
00:59:37Did I ask for your help?
00:59:38Mind your own business!
00:59:39Don't forget, your father's position at Sterling Group only exists because my aunt has been protecting your family.
00:59:46Don't you dare mention your aunt to me.
00:59:48My position as CFO was earned through Mr. Sterling's recognition and my own ability.
00:59:54It has nothing to do with that woman!
00:59:56There's one more thing I forgot to mention.
00:59:59I've resigned from all positions at Sterling Group.
01:00:02The person actually running things behind the Sayers now is Vanessa Cole.
01:00:05Richard broke things off with Vanessa, but handed Sterling Group over to her?
01:00:09That doesn't make sense.
01:00:10The power in our state is shifting.
01:00:12We'd better pick the right side.
01:00:14Jessica, I've actually always had tremendous respect for your aunt.
01:00:18Like, I think's not until it few well.
01:00:21Jessica, I was just joking earlier.
01:00:24Don't take it seriously.
01:00:25Yeah, we're best friends.
01:00:27Friends mess around sometimes, right?
01:00:30Since you're no longer the chairman of Sterling Group, there are certain things I should say plainly.
01:00:37Go on.
01:00:38Without Sterling Group behind you, Richard, you're nothing!
01:00:42And?
01:00:43Everyone in this room is somebody.
01:00:47You no longer belong here.
01:00:49Don't you think you're getting ahead of yourself?
01:00:51You've been in the game long enough to know.
01:00:53A man without money or power is worth less than the dirt on someone's shoe.
01:00:57Richard, you nearly ruined my life tonight.
01:01:00I'll make sure my father teaches you a good lesson.
01:01:03You tried to ruin my friendship with Jessica?
01:01:05Get down and apologize to us right now!
01:01:08No wonder my aunt chose to leave you.
01:01:11Look at you now.
01:01:12You're not even worthy of carrying her shoes.
01:01:15You're all blind fools!
01:01:17Sterling Group is nothing but a fraction of Mr. Sterling's portfolio.
01:01:20Mr. Sterling also controls Meridian Bank, Summit Holdings, Ironclad Mining, and dozens of other enterprises and organizations across the globe.
01:01:29If his total wealth were made public, he would absolutely be the richest man in the world.
01:01:34Some of those companies, they're even bigger than Sterling Group.
01:01:38Multinational corporations.
01:01:39We've been looking at only our field.
01:01:41We only saw a fraction of the picture and thought we understood everything.
01:01:44Sterling Group's internal corruption is beyond saving.
01:01:47To me, it's nothing more than a chess piece I've already discarded.
01:01:51Mr. Sterling, please!
01:01:53I'm begging you!
01:01:54Mr. Sterling, I was wrong!
01:01:55Punish me!
01:01:56Just me!
01:01:56Please leave the Harper family out of this!
01:01:58Ms. Sterling, we truly know we were wrong!
01:02:01Please!
01:02:02Ms. Sterling, ask your father to have mercy on us!
01:02:05If I let you off the hook, you'll just do the same thing to someone else who can't fight back.
01:02:17Follow Sterling.
01:02:22Dad, from now on, let's just skip my birthday altogether.
01:02:29I'm sorry.
01:02:30I never expected to turn out this way.
01:02:33I'm not blaming you.
01:02:35I just don't like being around people who use my birthday to get what they want.
01:02:39Danielle, I promise you, this will never happen again.
01:02:48What is it?
01:02:49Danielle, I won't throw any more big parties.
01:02:52But your birthday still has to be celebrated.
01:02:54From now on, I'll celebrate your birthday with you.
01:02:56Just us two.
01:02:58No strangers, no nonsense.
01:03:01Wait here for a second.
01:03:02I had a cake ordered from this shop.
01:03:04Let me go pick it up.
01:03:14Hey there, little niece.
01:03:17Waiting for your uncle?
01:03:18You!
01:03:19Dad!
01:03:20Dad!
01:03:22Dad!
01:03:55Hurry up!
01:03:57Victor, she's here.
01:04:01Mrs. Sterling, sit down, please.
01:04:07Victor, what have you done?
01:04:10Victor, I asked you to deal with Richard, not to kidnap his daughter.
01:04:14Kidnap?
01:04:15I simply led the young lady over for a cup of tea.
01:04:18Richard has connections everywhere.
01:04:20If he brings in law enforcement, we're all finished.
01:04:22Vanessa, 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.
01:04:32Without a single complaint.
01:04:34Right?
01:04:35Victor, why are you bringing this up now?
01:04:37I never forced you to do anything.
01:04:38I'm just saying, no matter what, I'll always have your back.
01:04:43I brought his daughter here to create an opportunity.
01:04:45To force Richard to sit down and have a proper conversation with you.
01:04:48But...
01:04:48Trust me.
01:04:49After tonight, you'll be Mrs. Sterling.
01:04:56Victor, it's Richard!
01:05:02Where have you taken my daughter?
01:05:05Dad, save me!
01:05:06Danielle, don't be afraid.
01:05:07Daddy's coming right now.
01:05:09Mr. Sterling, what an honor.
01:05:10I've admired you for a long time.
01:05:12Who are you?
01:05:13Let my daughter go, or you'll regret this.
01:05:16Relax, Mr. Sterling.
01:05:18I simply wanted to invite you over for a chat.
01:05:21What 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.
01:05:28Come alone.
01:05:29If you bring anyone else, or contact law enforcement.
01:05:33I can't guarantee your daughter's safety.
01:05:37Fine.
01:05:38You have my word.
01:05:40Sir, if you go alone, both you and the young Miss could be in danger.
01:05:43Their target is me.
01:05:45Only if I go alone, will they release Danielle.
01:05:52Check your phone.
01:05:53Do exactly as I've instructed.
01:05:55Understood, sir.
01:05:58Mr. Sterling, please, get in.
01:06:09Victor, he's here.
01:06:18Danielle, did they hurt you?
01:06:23Mr. Sterling, so glad you could finally join us.
01:06:26Say what you need to say.
01:06:30No need to rush, Mr. Sterling.
01:06:32Relax.
01:06:33I'm not going to make things difficult.
01:06:35I've always had great respect for you, Mr. Sterling.
01:06:38It's just that you're such a busy man.
01:06:40Getting a face-to-face meeting wasn't exactly easy.
01:06:42So I had to get creative.
01:06:49You 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.
01:06:58I'd be honored if you'd consider the collaboration.
01:07:01Signing with you would break faith with my existing partners.
01:07:05Why don't you take a look at my sincerity first?
01:07:20Victor, what are you doing?
01:07:26Mom!
01:07:37You really thought I was your lapdog, didn't you?
01:07:40All these years, I treated you well because you moved up the social ladder.
01:07:45You were useful to me!
01:07:46You've been lying to me this whole time!
01:07:51Mr. Sterling, this woman has cheated on you so many times and she tried to use me to destroy you.
01:07:57Today, I present them to you as a gift.
01:08:00Consider it my sincerity.
01:08:02Do you like it?
01:08:03Victor, whatever my sister did is on her!
01:08:05Why are you dragging me into this?
01:08:07You borrowed money from me to gamble.
01:08:09Already forgotten?
01:08:12Maybe this is God's punishment for all the terrible things I've done in my life.
01:08:17Miss Sterling, today is your birthday.
01:08:19Consider this my birthday gift to you.
01:08:21These people who bullied you are all yours now.
01:08:24Punish them however you see fit.
01:08:25These people do deserve to face the consequences of what they've done.
01:08:31Richard, I don't expect your forgiveness, but I served you faithfully for three years.
01:08:36Please, at least give me a way out.
01:08:39Mr. Sterling, I'm just a nobody.
01:08:41One of those riffragg.
01:08:42Getting even with someone like me is beneath you.
01:08:44Mr. Sterling, if you'd rather not get your hands dirty, I'd be happy to handle them for you.
01:08:49But my daughter is here.
01:08:51As a father, I won't teach her hatred.
01:08:53Leave the state and never come back.
01:08:56I'll go.
01:08:57I'll go.
01:08:58I swear I will never appear in front of you again.
01:09:00Get out!
01:09:10Mr. Sterling, you truly are a generous man.
01:09:14Seems my gift wasn't quite to your liking.
01:09:17Mr. Crane, they were nothing but a pretext for you to get this meeting.
01:09:20Then let's get back to business.
01:09:22About the mining partnership.
01:09:24If you genuinely want that contract, earn it through legitimate means.
01:09:27Mr. 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.
01:09:47Then it was family connections.
01:09:50Getting warmer.
01:09:51Forgive me for being slow.
01:09:53Please, just spell it out.
01:09:55Because I have a group of loyal brothers who've had my back every step of the way.
01:10:00They're the ones who put me where I am.
01:10:03And what does that have to do with our collaboration?
01:10:06It means that even when I walk into a place like this alone, I still hold the winning hand.
01:10:15You ungrateful idiot!
01:10:16Do you have any idea who Richard Sterling is?
01:10:19Let them go!
01:10:20Now!
01:10:21Dad, stay out of this.
01:10:22Stay out of it?
01:10:23How can I stay out of it?
01:10:25Your mother, your wife, your children!
01:10:28They're all surrounded by Sterling's people right now!
01:10:31Let them go right now!
01:10:33You want to get us all killed?
01:10:36Mr. Crane, until we meet again.
01:10:40How could you?
01:10:43Impossible!
01:10:47I've decided to dissolve the entire Sterling group utterly.
01:10:51Dad, that's decades of your life's work!
01:10:53Don't worry.
01:10:54What's left will be more than enough for the two of us.
01:10:57For the rest of our lives.
01:10:58That's not what I mean!
01:11:00Money is just numbers on a page.
01:11:03Danielle, you are my life's work.
01:11:05You are my life's work.
01:11:07I was just talking about people who are able to collapse their life.
01:11:09I don't know if they are properly techies.
01:11:11Don't be the only one that's going to happen.
01:11:12There's a lie in the world!
01:11:13Don't be anywhere else.
01:11:14No!
01:11:14You, live.
01:11:14Again, all have no idea I'll retain people who are alive.
01:11:15But don't be this.
