Transcript

00:00:00I paid George a generous salary for 10 years to be my husband's driver.

00:00:03But on the day he retired, he left me with a secret that changed everything.

00:00:07George, these are premium wines and health supplements.

00:00:10I want you to take them.

00:00:11And there's one more thing.

00:00:13George, you gave Julian years of loyal service.

00:00:17And you never let a single thing go wrong.

00:00:20You've earned this.

00:00:22It's my way of thanking you, so please take it.

00:00:25Mrs. Prescott, thank you for this decade.

00:00:30No, after everything you've done for us, I'm the one who owes you thanks.

00:00:37If your family ever has any trouble, no matter what it is, call me anytime.

00:00:49Mrs. Prescott!

00:00:52There's a hidden compartment in the trunk of Mr. Prescott's Bentley.

00:00:56Please, Mrs. Prescott, you need to see what's inside.

00:01:02A hidden compartment in the trunk?

00:01:12Julian, what's this?

00:01:14Why is this part raised?

00:01:18It's fine.

00:01:19The spare tire must be pushing it up.

00:01:23Come on, let's go.

00:01:24We shouldn't keep Margaret waiting.

00:01:28Business dinner tonight.

00:01:30I'm not come home.

00:01:30Julian has this business thing at least three times a week.

00:01:34In the past, I never thought much about it.

00:01:36But like glass, trust fractures easily and through the cracks, the chill of doubt creeps in.

00:01:44George, Julian's silent driver of ten years, never spoke out of turn.

00:01:48Until today, when he turned around and said those exact words.

00:01:52There's a hidden compartment in the trunk of Mr. Prescott's Bentley.

00:01:56Please, Mrs. Prescott, you need to see what's inside.

00:01:59Whatever is hidden in there has been eating away at George for a long time.

00:02:03Long enough that staying silent made him feel like he had wronged me.

00:02:11A file?

00:02:15Beverly Hills?

00:02:17A 4,090 square foot villa?

00:02:20Vivian.

00:02:21$50,000 every month?

00:02:23Always on the 15th?

00:02:25For three straight years?

00:02:26All going to Vivian?

00:02:34Baby, I'm waiting for you and our little one.

00:02:39So this is what he was hiding in that secret compartment.

00:02:43For three years, I was his loyal wife while he built a whole second family behind my back.

00:02:49A luxury villa, a monthly allowance, even a child.

00:02:54He made sure his mistress had it all.

00:02:59Rachel, do you have a minute?

00:03:01Yeah, I just got out of court.

00:03:02What's up?

00:03:03Run a background check on someone for me.

00:03:05Vivian.

00:03:06I want everything you can find about her and Julian over the last three years.

00:03:19It's late.

00:03:20Why haven't you gone to bed yet?

00:03:22I stayed up for you.

00:03:33Next time I'm running late, just go to sleep.

00:03:35You don't have to wait up for me.

00:03:39That perfume.

00:03:41I kept telling myself it came from some female client.

00:03:44Turns out the big client Julian has to see every week has a name.

00:03:48Vivian.

00:03:49Mr. Prescott, I heard that Prescott's real estate has acquired another prime location and its market value is about to

00:03:54exceed $8 billion.

00:03:55This is just Prescott's Bafik operation.

00:03:57I believe that under my leadership, Prescott Properties will soon become the top landmark in the country.

00:04:02$1 billion?

00:04:0310 years ago, Julian had nothing.

00:04:06I gave him the entire $400,000 wedding gift from my parents to fund his startup.

00:04:10Back then, he said,

00:04:12Sophie, I know this is all your savings.

00:04:14I promise you, I will treat you well for the rest of your life and will never let you down.

00:04:20In the early days of the business, I stayed up late to help him write the company's articles of association.

00:04:26I used my connections to help him secure the first major client and check every detail until 3 a.m.

00:04:34Until the company became public.

00:04:36And now he said,

00:04:38Sophie, we're married.

00:04:40What's mine is yours.

00:04:42Why does it matter if your name is officially listed as a shareholder?

00:04:47Julian, I spent 10 years trusting you with everything I had.

00:04:51I gave you my money, my time, my loyalty.

00:04:54Julian, and this is how you repay me?

00:05:01My mom's birthday gala is next week.

00:05:04Take care of everything for me.

00:05:06Sure.

00:05:08Don't embarrass me with another cheap-looking gala like last time.

00:05:12Book a better hotel and make sure the guest list is appropriate.

00:05:16I'll handle it.

00:05:22By the way, I'll be on a business trip for the next three days,

00:05:26so there's no need to wait up late in the night for me.

00:05:29Absolutely. Have a wonderful trip.

00:05:40Sophie, the results are in.

00:05:46Vivian, 26 years old, a former employee of the administrative department of Prescott's Real Estate,

00:05:52left the company three years ago.

00:05:53She currently resides in a villa at Beverly Hills without fixed work.

00:05:56Under her name, there is a Porsche and a villa, both purchased within the past six months.

00:06:02The source of funds is Julian's personal account.

00:06:05She's seven months pregnant.

00:06:06Seven months?

00:06:08For a decade?

00:06:09Julian and I tried for a child without success.

00:06:11The doctor diagnosed him with low sperm motility and suggested IVF.

00:06:15But Julian brushed it off, insisting we let nature take its course.

00:06:18As it turns out, nature took its course perfectly fine the moment he climbed into bed with his mistress.

00:06:24Sophie, take a breath.

00:06:25Don't make any decisions while you're upset.

00:06:27I'm perfectly calm.

00:06:29I want a divorce.

00:06:31You're going to confront Julian now?

00:06:32No.

00:06:33I'm not letting him know I'm onto him.

00:06:36There's something I need you to do first.

00:06:38Tell me.

00:06:40Tear apart the entire ownership structure of Prescott Properties.

00:06:43I want every nominate agreement, every offshore company, and every hidden account.

00:06:47I need to know exactly how much of our money Julian has moved behind my back.

00:06:52You're prepared to take this all the way?

00:06:54Of course.

00:06:55I've spent ten years being his unpaid maid.

00:06:58Now it's time to collect my wages.

00:07:01While I was waiting for Rachel to finish the investigation,

00:07:05I ran into Julian during his so-called business trip.

00:07:11There he was, flirting with Vivian like the perfect devoted boyfriend.

00:07:16But none of that matters to me anymore.

00:07:19The only thing I care about is that final result.

00:07:24The result that will make Julian regret everything for the rest of his life.

00:07:29Look at how your husband's been betraying you.

00:07:32The piece of trash truly thought of everything.

00:07:35Prescott's real estate.

00:07:36He holds 61% of the shares on the surface,

00:07:38but actually controls 78% through two high-profile companies in the Cayman Islands.

00:07:43The legal representative is his cousin Derek.

00:07:46Offshore shell companies?

00:07:47What else?

00:07:48For three years, Julian has been laundering company money through sham projects and stashing it in secret accounts.

00:07:52$15 million, six hidden accounts, four under his own name, and two under Vivian's.

00:07:57What about the properties?

00:07:58On top of the villa you're living in, he owns three other properties under his name,

00:08:02all of which he mortgaged last year, and the money has completely vanished.

00:08:05Then there is Vivian.

00:08:06Besides her, a villa at Beverly Hills.

00:08:08She holds the deeds to two commercial shops.

00:08:10Both were Prescott's real estate projects bought at an insider discount.

00:08:13Their market value is over $4 million, but he only shelled out $1.1 million.

00:08:17So while I spent 10 years being his wife, Julian secretly moved at least $30 million out of reach.

00:08:23And what did he leave me?

00:08:24The right to live in this villa.

00:08:26Not ownership.

00:08:26Not even my name in the title.

00:08:30What a masterpiece.

00:08:32You haven't even seen the worst part yet.

00:08:35Last month, Julian secretly hired a lawyer to prepare a divorce agreement.

00:08:40So he could get rid of you.

00:08:43The terms were insulting.

00:08:45The wife would leave the marriage with absolutely nothing.

00:08:47In exchange, the husband would generously grant her a single lump sum settlement of $250,000.

00:08:54Generously?

00:08:55I gave him $400,000 when he had nothing.

00:08:58Ten years later, after inflation, he's offering me even less than the money I put in.

00:09:02Sophie, he's planned the whole thing.

00:09:04All he needs is the right moment to cut you out of his life and put Vivian in your place.

00:09:08When exactly is Vivian's baby due?

00:09:10Next month, on the 15th.

00:09:13Sophie, what are you thinking?

00:09:16Didn't he ask me to organize a birthday gala for his mother?

00:09:19Then I'll give her a gala no one will ever forget.

00:09:25Did I forget a special occasion?

00:09:28Nothing special.

00:09:29I've just been missing you lately.

00:09:31Sit down and eat.

00:09:44I need to take this.

00:09:47Okay.

00:09:53What's up, babe?

00:10:00Who called?

00:10:02Just a client.

00:10:04I've booked your mother's birthday gala in a private ballroom at the peninsula.

00:10:08Is that grand enough for you?

00:10:10That'll do.

00:10:11Put together the dinner guest list, but run it by me before you finalize it.

00:10:15Of course.

00:10:16I just got back from my business trip, but the office needs me again.

00:10:21I have to work late, so I won't be staying with you tonight.

00:10:25Go ahead.

00:10:30Savor every last minute with your little mistress while you can.

00:10:35Once the curtains fall on that birthday gala, your perfect little life collapses.

00:10:43I was 25 when I married Julian 10 years ago.

00:10:47Everyone told me I was throwing my life away.

00:10:49Turns out they were right.

00:10:52Sophie, have you lost your mind?

00:10:55Although your Whitmore family is not a major foogie clan,

00:10:58it is still well known and in the little dendling business,

00:11:00how could you marry Julian, this poor boy?

00:11:03Sophie!

00:11:04You were supposed to inherit everything this family built.

00:11:06Instead, you're turning your back on all of it for a penniless nobody.

00:11:09I refuse to stand by and watch you destroy your future.

00:11:11If you marry him, then you are no longer my granddaughter.

00:11:14I even refused Grandpa's request to inherit family property,

00:11:17willing to sever ties him, and followed Julian heartedly,

00:11:21all because of his foolish promise.

00:11:27Sophie, I love you.

00:11:29I'll give you the whole world.

00:11:31He really did get the whole world.

00:11:36Just not part of it anymore.

00:11:45Sophie, the board of directors of Whitmore's Building Materials

00:11:49has reserved a seat for you.

00:11:50You can come back any time.

00:11:52Grandpa is waiting for you.

00:11:58Hello?

00:11:59Grandpa?

00:12:00It's me, Sophie.

00:12:04Grandpa?

00:12:06I want to come back.

00:12:07I'm ready to work again.

00:12:08Of course.

00:12:09You're my granddaughter.

00:12:10You never needed permission to come home.

00:12:12I will.

00:12:15I got my hands on the proxy ownership agreement.

00:12:18Guess what I found?

00:12:19Of the 78% of the stock in Prescott's,

00:12:2115% has already been prepared for transfer,

00:12:23with the transferant being Vivian.

00:12:25When is the transfer scheduled?

00:12:27The agreement takes effect on the 20th of next month,

00:12:30five days after Vivian's baby is due.

00:12:34So that's his plan.

00:12:35He wants his child safely born before he gets rid of me.

00:12:39Exactly.

00:12:39The second his son is born,

00:12:41Vivian gets the shares.

00:12:43You get a divorce agreement,

00:12:45and a pathetic $250,000 payoff.

00:12:48Then Julie expects you to disappear quietly.

00:12:51He really thought of everything.

00:12:59Mom?

00:13:00My birthday gala is three days away.

00:13:02Tell me you've handled everything properly.

00:13:05Everything has been arranged.

00:13:07Make sure my closest friends are seated right next to me at the gala.

00:13:13Sure, Mom.

00:13:14And?

00:13:16Julian told me he's bringing a very important guest.

00:13:19I want her seated right next to me.

00:13:22Who is he bringing?

00:13:24That's none of your concern.

00:13:25Just handle it.

00:13:29A very important guest.

00:13:32You're really going to expose him in front of everyone at the gala?

00:13:36Definitely.

00:13:38Good.

00:13:39I'll come armed with the full case file.

00:13:41Make sure you bring the divorce agreement, too.

00:13:44Sophie, you know,

00:13:46I've always believed you wasted far too much of yourself on Julian.

00:13:51Not anymore.

00:13:53It ends today.

00:14:02How may I help you?

00:14:02Who are you here to see?

00:14:04Mr. Wiltfield.

00:14:05Tell him his granddaughter is here.

00:14:08Nathan, there's a woman downstairs.

00:14:09She says she's Mr. Wiltfield's granddaughter.

00:14:12Mr. Wiltfield, take it easy.

00:14:16Sophie!

00:14:17Grandpa!

00:14:18You left me alone with this company for ten years,

00:14:20and now you finally decide to come back.

00:14:22Come on, your office has been waiting for you.

00:14:25Let Grandpa show you.

00:14:27Check out the office Grandpa prepared for you.

00:14:37You've gotten so thin.

00:14:39Grandpa, I'm sorry.

00:14:41I was reckless and stubborn.

00:14:43I turned my back on you for a love that was never worth it.

00:14:46Everyone makes mistakes.

00:14:48If you're happy, I'll celebrate with you,

00:14:51and if the world ever hurts you, come home.

00:14:55I'll always have your back.

00:14:58No more tears.

00:15:00You know Grandpa can't stand seeing you cry.

00:15:03Come on.

00:15:04Let me show you the office I had set up for you.

00:15:08Grandpa, let me start as a VP.

00:15:10I want to work my way back up.

00:15:12You'll take your rightful seat on the board.

00:15:15You can carry that responsibility.

00:15:17Grandpa believes in you.

00:15:20Mr. Wiltmore, I have the materials you asked for.

00:15:26With the 32% your parents left you and my 41% combined,

00:15:31Wiltmore Materials Group is officially yours.

00:15:33Step up and take control as possible, Sophie.

00:15:35I've waited a long time for this retirement.

00:15:37I will, Grandpa.

00:15:38I promise, Grandpa.

00:15:39There's one thing I need you to do for me.

00:15:42Name it.

00:15:43Whatever you need, I will make it happen.

00:15:45Keep my return quiet for now.

00:15:47Is there a reason?

00:15:48Because before I come back for good, there's one last war I intend to win.

00:15:54That worthless bastard Julian did something to you, didn't he?

00:15:57You might have walked away from Wiltmore Materials Group,

00:16:00but this family still shield his business and quietly pulled strings for him.

00:16:08Grandpa!

00:16:09Don't waste your anger on someone like him.

00:16:12I chose the wrong man.

00:16:16This is my mess, and I'm going to clean it up myself.

00:16:23Go win it, then.

00:16:24You were born to conquer, not to lose.

00:16:30Where did you get an outfit like that?

00:16:32I bought it.

00:16:34How much did that cost?

00:16:36Not much.

00:16:37At just $90,000, a birthday gala this magnificent naturally demands the most high-end eteral to match.

00:16:45Come on.

00:16:46It's my mom's birthday gala today.

00:16:48Let's not be late.

00:16:56Of course.

00:16:57I'm on my way to get you now.

00:17:00I'll drop you off at the hotel,

00:17:01get the gala set up while I go pick up a guest.

00:17:06Is that the special guest your mother told me about?

00:17:08Yeah.

00:17:09What's her name?

00:17:11Vivian.

00:17:15Don't overthink it.

00:17:16Her brother is one of my business partners.

00:17:18She's helped my mom connect with a few people,

00:17:21so my mom's taken a liking to her.

00:17:23No wonder he's a husband who could hide her for three years.

00:17:26He lies like it's the easiest thing in the world.

00:17:30I'll make sure your very important guest gets the welcome she deserves.

00:17:44I have a suite on the 18th floor.

00:17:46Every piece of evidence we have is already inside.

00:17:48Perfect.

00:17:49One more thing.

00:17:50I've found out that Julian's equities transfer agreement must be signed by 3 p.m. this afternoon.

00:17:54That is to say, he plans to take Vivian directly to the law firm after the gala dinner.

00:17:58Why is he in such a hurry?

00:18:00Vivian's due date has been moved up.

00:18:01The doctor says she could give Borth any day this week.

00:18:04Julian wants those shares safely in her near name before the baby arrives.

00:18:09He won't get that chance.

00:18:10Not in this lifetime.

00:18:16Margaret, this gala is spectacular.

00:18:18You've really outdone yourself.

00:18:20Not everyone can host a birthday gala at the peninsula.

00:18:22This is seriously impressive.

00:18:23My son personally arranged every detail.

00:18:25I heard he spent well over $50,000 just to make my birthday special.

00:18:29Well, you finally made an effort with your appearance.

00:18:33Today is your special day.

00:18:34Dressing appropriately is only expected.

00:18:37She came into this family with no parents to support her.

00:18:39And after all these years, she still can't even give my son a child.

00:18:42I have no idea why Julian insisted on marrying her.

00:18:44Honestly, she's an embarrassment to this entire family.

00:18:47Sophie, you look stunning.

00:18:49Who designed your dress?

00:18:51Valentino.

00:18:52Valentino?

00:18:53That dress must have cost a fortune.

00:18:55It's Julian's money she's wasting.

00:18:56She doesn't make a dime of her own.

00:18:58She only knows how to spend his.

00:18:59Sophie really went all out with that outfit.

00:19:02If I didn't know any better, I'd think she was the one celebrating her birthday today.

00:19:07How kind of you to say that.

00:19:08No need to thank me.

00:19:10I just said out loud what everyone else was thinking.

00:19:12Oh, Derek, you made it.

00:19:15Come in, come in.

00:19:16Let's get you a seat.

00:19:17Julian claims he owns 61% of Prescott properties.

00:19:21That's only what he wants people to see.

00:19:23He hit another 17% behind two offshore companies in the Cayman Islands.

00:19:28In reality, he controls 78%.

00:19:30And his cousin Derek is the name on the paperwork.

00:19:34Go ahead.

00:19:35Laugh while you still can.

00:19:36Once everyone is here, I'm collecting every debt you owe me.

00:19:41Where is Julian?

00:19:42You're his wife.

00:19:43How do you not know why he still hasn't shown up?

00:19:46He went to pick up a friend.

00:19:47I'm sure they'll be here very soon.

00:19:49Who could possibly need Julian to go pick them up himself?

00:19:52Vivian.

00:19:53Oh, Vivian!

00:19:54Then, of course, Julian had to pick her up himself.

00:20:00It's fine.

00:20:02We can wait as long as she needs.

00:20:06Honey, the real show is about to start.

00:20:09Keep your voice down.

00:20:11Like it matters whether I say it out loud.

00:20:13Everyone already knows.

00:20:21Slow down, Vivian.

00:20:24You're in no condition to be hurrying.

00:20:27Happy birthday, Margaret.

00:20:28I chose this just for you.

00:20:30I hope it's good enough.

00:20:31How could I not like it?

00:20:34That baby you're carrying is the best birthday gift I could ever receive.

00:20:41Mom, what are you talking about?

00:20:43What?

00:20:43I've been waiting for a grandson for years.

00:20:46Sophie can't give this family a child, and now I'm supposed to hide my joy because another woman can?

00:20:50Come, Vivian.

00:20:51You stay right beside me today.

00:20:53Who is she?

00:20:54Just look at her belly, and Margaret's practically fanning over her.

00:20:58What else could it be?

00:20:59No way.

00:21:00Now this is a scandal worth watching.

00:21:08Not yet.

00:21:10Let them dig their own grave a little deeper.

00:21:13Thank you, everyone, for coming to my mom's birthday gala today.

00:21:18It means a lot to have our family and friends here with us.

00:21:24If I'm standing here today, it's because of my mom.

00:21:27She sacrificed so much to raise me and taught me everything I know about how to be a decent man.

00:21:32And of course, I also need to thank my family.

00:21:36You stood by me and supported me every step of the way.

00:21:40I wouldn't be where I am today without you.

00:21:47Vivian, come stand beside me.

00:21:49We'll cut the cake together.

00:21:53At this rate, the Prescotts are about to install the mistress as the new Mrs. Prescott right in front of

00:21:58everyone.

00:21:59They're humiliating Sophie right in front of everyone, and she's still sitting there quietly.

00:22:03How pathetic.

00:22:04For the Prescott family, an heir is everything, and the woman who delivers one holds all the cards.

00:22:09Sophie can't give them that.

00:22:10But Vivian, she's carrying the ultimate leverage.

00:22:14Ouch.

00:22:14They're humiliating her in front of the entire room.

00:22:17If that were me, this table would already be on the floor.

00:22:20Nicole, enough.

00:22:22You really thought of everything.

00:22:23First, you parade Vivian around at the gala and let everyone know she's replacing me.

00:22:28Then, once your precious son is born, you transfer the shares into her hands

00:22:32and toss me a divorce agreement like I'm disposable.

00:22:35Sophie, don't let it get to you.

00:22:38I'm sure Julian has a logical explanation for this.

00:22:41Derek.

00:22:42Yes, Sophie?

00:22:43I know you're illegally holding 17% of Julian's shares through two offshore companies.

00:22:48If the IRS catches wind of it, you will...

00:22:50Sophie, I don't know anything about that.

00:22:52I swear, I...

00:22:53I have the registration numbers for both Khaven Holdings and Julia International.

00:22:58Do you still want me to continue?

00:23:01Sophie, I...

00:23:03Stay right here and watch.

00:23:05Once this show is over, I'm coming back for you.

00:23:09Ugh!

00:23:10Sophie!

00:23:11What the hell are you doing here?

00:23:12Go sit down and stop ruining the moment for everyone!

00:23:16Hurry up and get her out of here.

00:23:19Go back to your seat.

00:23:20It's my mother's birthday gala, so don't cause a scene.

00:23:23I'll explain when we get home.

00:23:25Home?

00:23:26Be specific, Julian.

00:23:28Do you mean our home?

00:23:30Or the one where you've been playing home with Vivian?

00:23:35You...

00:23:37Congratulations.

00:23:38After three years of sneaking around with my husband, you can finally stop hiding and stand proudly beside him.

00:23:46Julian!

00:23:46Julian, who is she?

00:23:52You're pretending you don't know me?

00:23:53Fine.

00:23:54Let's make this official.

00:23:57I'm Sophie, Julian's wife.

00:24:01But that title is about to become ex-wife.

00:24:06Sophie, I hope we can think of each other as family.

00:24:09Don't ever call me your sister.

00:24:10Hearing that word come out of your mouth makes me sick.

00:24:13Sophie, enough.

00:24:13Vivian is here as a guest.

00:24:15Don't embarrass her.

00:24:16A guest?

00:24:17Julian, do you seriously still think I'm stupid enough to believe that?

00:24:21You...

00:24:22Vivian, former employee of Prescott Development Group.

00:24:25Address?

00:24:26Villa 4, Phase 3, Beverly Hills.

00:24:28Wait, where's Cayenne?

00:24:29Plate number starts with 488.

00:24:33Julian, should I keep going or have you heard enough?

00:24:37You've been spying on me?

00:24:40Secrets only stay buried when there's nothing to uncover.

00:24:44What happened, Julian?

00:24:46Are you scared of what I found?

00:24:47Sophia!

00:24:48Stop acting like a lunaturk!

00:24:50This is my birthday gala, and I will not let you ruin it!

00:24:53Get out!

00:24:54Margaret, I'm perfectly sane.

00:24:56In fact, after 10 years, I've never been more clear-headed.

00:25:00It's time we settled a few accounts.

00:25:02She finally stopped taking it quietly.

00:25:05Margaret never misses a chance to flaunt her perfect family.

00:25:08Let's see how she talks her way out of this one.

00:25:11Let's be honest.

00:25:12She walked into this gala pregnant with a married man's child like she owns the place.

00:25:17She's shameless.

00:25:18All of you, shut up!

00:25:21Vivian, don't be afraid.

00:25:23I'm right here.

00:25:24No one is going to touch you.

00:25:25You are the daughter-in-law this family deserves.

00:25:28You're carrying the Prescott heir, which makes you the one who has actually contributed something to this family.

00:25:38Sophie, you couldn't give my son after 10 years.

00:25:42So he found a woman who could.

00:25:44What exactly is wrong with that?

00:25:46Unless you can give this family a son yourself, you have nothing to say.

00:25:51Mom, stop.

00:25:53This isn't the time to show our hand.

00:25:54We still have things to put in place.

00:26:01Sophie, Vivian and I are only friends.

00:26:03My mom lost her temper and said things she didn't mean.

00:26:06There's nothing going on between us.

00:26:07Just go home, and I'll talk you through everything later.

00:26:12That's right.

00:26:13Stop slandering my son.

00:26:15Julian would never do something like that.

00:26:17Slandering him?

00:26:23This prenatal record is from Vivian's appointment three months ago.

00:26:28Look at the section for the baby's father.

00:26:31Julian's name is right there.

00:26:33Are you still going to call this slander?

00:26:36Her boyfriend wasn't there when she had her prenatal checkup.

00:26:39Someone needed to sign the forms, so I did it for him.

00:26:42Is that really enough for you to cause a scene in front of everyone?

00:26:47You were just signing for him?

00:26:49Here's a picture of you and Vivian.

00:26:51On the back, in your handwriting, it says,

00:26:54Baby, I'm waiting for you and our little one, Julian.

00:26:58Should I assume you took the photo for her boyfriend

00:27:00and wrote the love note for him, too?

00:27:02This is unbelievable.

00:27:04The Prescons treated Sophie horribly.

00:27:06He's still trying to talk way out of it?

00:27:08He must think everyone here is an idiot.

00:27:10A 4,090-square-foot villa at Beverly Hills

00:27:13registered in Vivian's name.

00:27:16And these commercial units, all of them, for three years,

00:27:20Julian transferred $30,000 to Vivian every month,

00:27:23always on the 15th.

00:27:2436 transfers.

00:27:25He never missed a single one.

00:27:27Seriously?

00:27:28He spent that much money on his mistress?

00:27:30Come on.

00:27:32Do you really think a young woman would have his baby for free?

00:27:35Sophie, you can't force someone to love you.

00:27:38Julian said,

00:27:40Your marriage has been over for years,

00:27:42and now I'm pregnant with his child.

00:27:44Nothing can change that.

00:27:45If you keep making a scene,

00:27:47no one is going to come out of this looking bird.

00:27:49Shut up!

00:27:49Do you honestly think she's still willing to settle this quietly

00:27:53after everything that just happened?

00:27:54I said shut up!

00:27:57Sophie, you don't understand the full picture.

00:28:00Let's not do this here.

00:28:01Come home with me, and I'll explain everything.

00:28:04An explanation?

00:28:06After you transfer every share you can hide,

00:28:08hand me the divorce papers,

00:28:09and throw me $250,000 to disappear?

00:28:13Is that when you plan to explain everything?

00:28:16You never stopped humiliating me

00:28:18for not giving this family a child.

00:28:20So congratulations, Margaret.

00:28:22Vivian is seven months pregnant.

00:28:24In two months,

00:28:25you'll finally be holding the grandson you wanted so badly.

00:28:29So what if he did?

00:28:30You've been in our family for ten years

00:28:32and still can't have a child.

00:28:34You're just a hen that can't lay eggs.

00:28:37My son is capable.

00:28:38What's wrong with finding someone who can have kids?

00:28:41I'm not the one who couldn't have a child, Margaret.

00:28:44Your precious son, Julian, is...

00:28:46Sophie, that's enough.

00:28:48Shut your mouth.

00:28:49Now you're panicking?

00:28:50For years, your mom's been going around

00:28:52telling everyone that I was the one who couldn't have kids?

00:28:55Why didn't you ever shut her up?

00:28:57I...

00:29:03Take a good look.

00:29:05Eight years ago,

00:29:06the doctor told us Julia had low sperm motility

00:29:10and needed to work on his health.

00:29:14Julian told me to be patient.

00:29:16He said we should let things happen naturally.

00:29:19Fine.

00:29:19I waited eight years.

00:29:21Then the moment things finally worked out,

00:29:23he went and had a child with someone else.

00:29:27Honestly, I'm glad I never gave him a child.

00:29:30A man like Julian

00:29:31doesn't deserve to be the father of mine.

00:29:33Enough, Sophie!

00:29:35I'm done.

00:29:35I wasted ten years loving you

00:29:38and that love is gone.

00:29:41Why on earth should I do you any favors now?

00:29:44Sophie!

00:29:45No matter what Julian did,

00:29:47the two of you shared a marriage.

00:29:49You could have handled this privately.

00:29:51Did you really need to humiliate him

00:29:53in front of an entire room?

00:29:55Shut your mouth!

00:29:57We're already in deep trouble.

00:29:59We can't afford to get involved.

00:30:01Sophie came here to destroy every last one of us.

00:30:04She knows everything we did.

00:30:08Is that what you want, Sophie?

00:30:10To humiliate me in front of everyone

00:30:11and destroy everything I built?

00:30:13I'm not the one ruining you, Julian.

00:30:15You did that all on your own.

00:30:16I'm just making sure everyone can see what you've done.

00:30:19Sophie!

00:30:19You vicious troublemaker!

00:30:21I always knew you were an ill-mannered nobody

00:30:24with no upbringing!

00:30:25Stop acting so righteous.

00:30:27Your well-mannered son spent three years

00:30:29hiding a mistress,

00:30:30embezzled $30 million in assets,

00:30:33and trying to leave me with pocket change.

00:30:36Don't play innocent.

00:30:39You knew exactly what he was doing.

00:30:43Because you think a successful man

00:30:45owes it to himself

00:30:47to trade his wife in for a younger model.

00:30:50Is that your idea of a good upbringing?

00:30:53How dare you speak to me that way?

00:30:56I am your mother-in-law!

00:30:57Does that mean nothing to you?

00:30:59Not anymore.

00:31:00Sophie, what is it going to take for you to stop?

00:31:03My lawyer prepared this divorce agreement.

00:31:04I'm asking for exactly what the law allows.

00:31:07A lawful division of all marital assets,

00:31:09every cent of the $30 million

00:31:10moved during our marriage,

00:31:12and a reassessment of the shares development group

00:31:14based on each person's actual contribution.

00:31:16I don't agree!

00:31:17Those assets belong to me and my son.

00:31:21No one is touching them.

00:31:23You're delusional, Sophie.

00:31:25I built Prescott Development Group

00:31:26from the ground up with my own two hands.

00:31:28You didn't contribute a single thing to my success.

00:31:32You built it yourself?

00:31:34Then let's refresh your memory.

00:31:35Julian,

00:31:36who gave you the $400,000

00:31:38you needed to launch the company?

00:31:40Who drafted the bylaws?

00:31:41Who stayed up reviewing every project proposal?

00:31:43Who pulled the strings to land your very first major client?

00:31:47Julian,

00:31:48without me,

00:31:49you never would have earned your first dollar.

00:31:51Everything you built started with what I gave you.

00:31:53Wait, Julian,

00:31:54your wife funded your company when you were starting out?

00:31:57So the great Julian Prestock built his empire

00:31:59by using his wife's money.

00:32:02How impressive.

00:32:03Classic.

00:32:03She helped him build everything.

00:32:05And the second he made it,

00:32:06he traded her in for someone younger.

00:32:08What a bastard.

00:32:09If you refuse,

00:32:11we can settle this in court.

00:32:13Sophie,

00:32:13I can make the decision for Julian.

00:32:15I'll have him give you enough money

00:32:16to live comfortably for the rest of your life.

00:32:18Take the money and walk away before you lose even that.

00:32:22And if I don't,

00:32:24you...

00:32:25Vivian,

00:32:26what is it?

00:32:26Are you okay?

00:32:28I'm going into labor.

00:32:30Get me to the hospital now.

00:32:32The baby,

00:32:33you can't let anything happen to the baby.

00:32:36What the hell are you waiting for?

00:32:37Call an ambulance.

00:32:38If anything happens to my son,

00:32:40Sophie,

00:32:40I swear I'll make you pay.

00:32:42Fine.

00:32:43But it looks like today's reckoning

00:32:44will have to end here.

00:32:46Don't worry, Julian.

00:32:48I'll collect the rest of what you owe me another day.

00:32:51Everyone,

00:32:52my apologies for interrupting

00:32:53such a lovely celebration.

00:32:55Please,

00:32:56don't let me spoil the fun.

00:32:58Margaret,

00:32:59since it's your birthday,

00:33:00I wish you a long and healthy life

00:33:02surrounded by children and grandchildren.

00:33:04And may every single one of them repay you with the same loyalty your son has shown me.

00:33:09Rachel,

00:33:09let's go.

00:33:11Oh,

00:33:12you're trying to kill me!

00:33:13From this moment forward,

00:33:15I,

00:33:16Sophie,

00:33:17will live for myself and no one else.

00:33:20You completely slaughtered them.

00:33:23Cold,

00:33:23merciless,

00:33:24and lethal.

00:33:24The old Sophie is back.

00:33:26No,

00:33:26wait.

00:33:27This version is way better.

00:33:29I'm not any better or stronger than I was.

00:33:31I just spent a decade living a lie

00:33:33and the illusion has finally shattered.

00:33:37That's true.

00:33:38By the way,

00:33:38I'm submitting the divorce filing tomorrow morning.

00:33:40Once Julian receives it,

00:33:41he'll send someone to push for a settlement.

00:33:43A settlement?

00:33:44That depends on what he's prepared to put on the table.

00:33:47Come on,

00:33:48my treat.

00:33:49Tonight,

00:33:49we celebrate your new life.

00:33:52Sophie!

00:33:54Please wait!

00:33:57Tell it to the judge when the time comes.

00:33:58Now move.

00:33:59No,

00:34:00no,

00:34:00Sophie,

00:34:01please.

00:34:01About those two Cayman Islands companies you mentioned,

00:34:04Derek is only listed in the paperwork.

00:34:06He doesn't know anything about them.

00:34:08Sophie,

00:34:08I swear,

00:34:08I knew nothing about the details.

00:34:10Julian told me to act as the nominee director.

00:34:12I only did what he asked.

00:34:13Save that explanation for the IRS.

00:34:15They can decide whether you knew what you were doing.

00:34:18Sophie,

00:34:19I'm begging you.

00:34:20Please don't involve Derek.

00:34:22Nicole,

00:34:23that's a first.

00:34:24After all these years,

00:34:26you finally managed to ask me for something without sneering.

00:34:28I was wrong,

00:34:29Sophie.

00:34:30I admit it.

00:34:31Please show Derek some mercy.

00:34:33Sophie,

00:34:33I never should have helped Julian deceive you.

00:34:36I know I was wrong.

00:34:38Please,

00:34:38just give me one chance to make it right.

00:34:41I'm not part of your family anymore.

00:34:45Sophie.

00:34:46Enough.

00:34:47I won't report you myself.

00:34:49Thank you,

00:34:50Sophie.

00:34:51Thank you,

00:34:51Sophie.

00:34:52On one condition.

00:34:54On one condition.

00:34:56Of course,

00:34:57Sophie.

00:34:57Tell me what you need.

00:34:58First,

00:35:00never try to manipulate me with that we're family bullshit again.

00:35:03It's disgusting.

00:35:04Second,

00:35:04you have the files and lock in debt of quirks for every offshore company Julian controls.

00:35:08I want copies of every document and every password.

00:35:11This...

00:35:11What the hell are you thinking?

00:35:12Sophie is giving you a lifeline.

00:35:14Are you really stupid enough to sync with Julian?

00:35:16Okay,

00:35:17Sophie.

00:35:17I'll send every password right now.

00:35:19You'll have copies of every document shortly after that.

00:35:26Honey,

00:35:26are we really going to sell Julian out?

00:35:29You know exactly how Julian got his power.

00:35:31He used his wife to build Prescott Development Group and dumped her the second he was done with her.

00:35:36If she was nothing to him,

00:35:37we're even less.

00:35:41We've already agreed.

00:35:42You have to come back to Whitmore's to help me.

00:35:44You're my golden ticket,

00:35:46Sophie.

00:35:46Of course I'm holding on for dear life.

00:35:48General Counsel,

00:35:49the job is yours whenever you want it.

00:35:50Easy there.

00:35:51Deputy General Counsel is more than enough for me.

00:35:54Sophie,

00:35:55the gala footage is everywhere.

00:35:57Julian is finished.

00:35:59Tell me the truth.

00:36:00Did you plant someone to make sure it went viral?

00:36:03I didn't need to do a thing.

00:36:04The room was full of vultures dying from a scandal,

00:36:07particularly Margaret's old friends.

00:36:09They happily did all my dirty work for me.

00:36:11Sophie,

00:36:11don't buy Vivian's act.

00:36:13She played the meek lamb,

00:36:14but she was too calm under pressure.

00:36:16She's no victim.

00:36:17She's trouble.

00:36:18Good.

00:36:18I was hoping she'd put up a fight.

00:36:20Otherwise,

00:36:20where's the fun?

00:36:21Come on.

00:36:22Drink with me.

00:36:29My baby.

00:36:30Where is he?

00:36:31He's fine.

00:36:32Mom is watching over him right now.

00:36:33You promised Sophie wouldn't discover a thing.

00:36:35Now she knows about the entire plan.

00:36:37How are you going to fix this?

00:36:37That vindictive bitch made sure the gala scandal went public.

00:36:40She's trying to destroy me out of spite.

00:36:41I couldn't care less about Sophie.

00:36:43Your money,

00:36:43your company,

00:36:44everything you own must go to my son.

00:36:45Don't worry.

00:36:46I still have everything under control.

00:36:49Mr. Prescott.

00:36:51Why did you come all the way here?

00:36:56Get some rest.

00:36:58I'll be right outside.

00:37:01Your wife has officially filed for divorce.

00:37:03The petition is already with the court.

00:37:05She actually had the nerve to file?

00:37:08Does Sophie rariously think I'm going to back down?

00:37:10The evidence is damaging.

00:37:12She can prove the affair,

00:37:13the asset transfers,

00:37:15and potential tax violations.

00:37:16The facts are difficult to dispute.

00:37:18And from what I've heard,

00:37:19she's still holding back additional evidence.

00:37:21Then what the hell am I supposed to do?

00:37:24My advice is to settle.

00:37:25The more public this becomes,

00:37:27the worse it be for you.

00:37:33Grandpa.

00:37:34Slowly, Sophie.

00:37:35Martha, bring her the honey lemonade.

00:37:37She needs to sober up a little.

00:37:38Did Rachel bring me home?

00:37:39My head hurt so much,

00:37:41I drank way too much last night.

00:37:43Everything after that is a total blank.

00:37:46After everything you've been through,

00:37:47you deserved one night to let it all out.

00:37:50Bottling it up would have been worse.

00:37:51Drink up, Miss Sophie.

00:37:53Mr. Whitfield asked me to have it ready for you.

00:37:55It's just the right temperature.

00:38:03Thanks, Martha.

00:38:04Miss Sophie,

00:38:06no more heavy drinking for you.

00:38:12Last night,

00:38:13you wrapped yourself around Mr. Whitfield,

00:38:15cried like a baby,

00:38:17and wouldn't let go.

00:38:19You practically sobbed yourself unconscious.

00:38:26Martha, please tell me you're joking.

00:38:28Not once in all the years I've known you

00:38:30have I ever seen you cry that hard.

00:38:33You clung to Mr. Whitmare,

00:38:35apologized over and over,

00:38:37and promised you'd be the best granddaughter

00:38:39in the world from now on.

00:38:40Then you insisted he stay with you

00:38:43until you fell asleep.

00:38:44Martha, have mercy.

00:38:46Say another word.

00:38:48And Sophie may never show her face

00:38:50in this house again.

00:38:51Okay, okay.

00:38:52I'll stop.

00:38:54I'm going to bring out breakfast.

00:38:56I made everything you loved

00:38:57when you were younger, Miss Sophie.

00:39:01It's so embarrassing.

00:39:03There's no need to ever feel embarrassed

00:39:05around your grandfather, sweetheart.

00:39:07Now, go freshen up

00:39:09and come back downstairs.

00:39:10Let's have some breakfast together.

00:39:13Yeah.

00:39:18You're far too thin, Sophie.

00:39:21You need to eat properly.

00:39:25Grandpa,

00:39:26I'm coming to Whitmore Materials Group

00:39:28with you today.

00:39:29I'm ready to get started.

00:39:31There's no rush.

00:39:32Give yourself a few days to rest.

00:39:33I've had enough rest.

00:39:35Let me learn the ropes

00:39:36so you can finally stop

00:39:37exhausting yourself

00:39:38for the business.

00:39:40Then let's do it.

00:39:50What do you want?

00:39:51Sophie,

00:39:52we need to talk.

00:39:53All right.

00:39:53This morning,

00:39:54I need to go back

00:39:55and remove every last thing

00:39:56that belongs to me.

00:40:00Grandpa, I...

00:40:01It's okay, Sophie.

00:40:02Go close that chapter properly.

00:40:03I'll be waiting for you

00:40:04at the office this afternoon.

00:40:06I will.

00:40:19I can't change the past.

00:40:21But I'm not going to waste

00:40:23another second bleeding over it.

00:40:25Done with this, too.

00:40:33And this has no reason

00:40:35to exist, either.

00:40:44Sophie!

00:40:45What are you doing?

00:40:47Did your conscience rot

00:40:48so deeply that it blinded you?

00:40:51Fine.

00:40:52Open your eyes

00:40:53and watch this.

00:40:56You.

00:40:57How did I never see

00:40:59how restless you really are?

00:41:02If I showed any mercy,

00:41:03you and your family

00:41:04would leave me with nothing.

00:41:06Not even the scraps.

00:41:08You wanted to talk, Julian?

00:41:10I'm listening.

00:41:11Say what you came to say

00:41:12so we can get this over with.

00:41:14Fine.

00:41:14Tell me how much it'll take

00:41:15to make you go away.

00:41:16How much for what?

00:41:17Come on, Sophie.

00:41:19This entire spectacle

00:41:20is about money.

00:41:21How much do you want

00:41:21to withdraw the lawsuit?

00:41:221.5 million?

00:41:25Not even close.

00:41:26Fine.

00:41:273 million dollars.

00:41:29That's more than enough,

00:41:30isn't it?

00:41:30Sophie!

00:41:31Keep pushing like this

00:41:33and you're gonna choke!

00:41:35Don't worry about me, Julian.

00:41:37My appetite has never been better.

00:41:414 million dollars.

00:41:43This is my final offer.

00:41:44Sophie,

00:41:45think it through for yourself.

00:41:48You're a housewife

00:41:49with no job and no income.

00:41:52Do you know expensive a lawsuit is?

00:41:54Can you afford the lawyer's fees?

00:41:56I can afford it.

00:41:57You've got a lot of confidence

00:41:58for someone relying

00:41:59on one small-time lawyer.

00:42:01Prescott Development Group

00:42:02has an entire team

00:42:03of senior attorneys on Retainer.

00:42:05Do you seriously think

00:42:06your friend stands a chance

00:42:07against them?

00:42:08Do you honestly believe

00:42:10your little lawyer friend

00:42:11stands a chance

00:42:11against an entire team

00:42:13of seasoned attorneys?

00:42:14Your team?

00:42:15You might want to ask

00:42:16Graven about that.

00:42:18Your star attorney

00:42:19faced Rachel

00:42:20in three cases last year

00:42:21and she beat him

00:42:22every single time.

00:42:24Mr. Prescott,

00:42:25your wife has

00:42:25a very strong case,

00:42:27especially with Rachel

00:42:28handling it.

00:42:29She is not someone

00:42:30we should take lightly.

00:42:31What the hell

00:42:32do you want from me?

00:42:33I'm taking every single thing

00:42:34the law says belongs to me.

00:42:36Not one cent less.

00:42:38What do you think

00:42:39the law can give you?

00:42:41On paper,

00:42:42you have nothing.

00:42:43No shares

00:42:44in Prescott Development Group.

00:42:45No name on the deed.

00:42:46Nothing.

00:42:47I'm offering you

00:42:48a way out

00:42:48because I'm being generous.

00:42:49Don't be stupid enough

00:42:50to reject it.

00:42:51Keep your generosity, Julian.

00:42:52The courts will decide

00:42:53exactly what I get.

00:42:55Not you.

00:42:55You.

00:42:56Is that all?

00:42:57I have places to be.

00:43:01Sophie,

00:43:02we were married

00:43:02for 10 years.

00:43:04Doesn't what we had

00:43:05count for anything?

00:43:06What do you gain

00:43:07by turning this

00:43:07into a war?

00:43:09What we had?

00:43:10Julian,

00:43:11you started your company

00:43:12with my $400,000.

00:43:13You used my connections

00:43:15to land clients.

00:43:16You wore the suits

00:43:17I picked out

00:43:17when you went

00:43:18to pitch projects.

00:43:19Back when you were nobody,

00:43:20I was the one

00:43:20who stood beside you

00:43:21and helped you build

00:43:22everything from the ground up.

00:43:23And now you want

00:43:24to talk to me

00:43:25about what we had?

00:43:26Fine.

00:43:26Let's talk about

00:43:27what we had.

00:43:28It's sitting in the

00:43:29Beverly Hills mansion

00:43:30you bought Vivian.

00:43:31It's in the $11,000

00:43:32you wire her every month.

00:43:34It's growing inside her

00:43:36right now,

00:43:37seven months along.

00:43:39And what did you leave me

00:43:40after 10 years?

00:43:41A divorce agreement

00:43:42designed to strip me

00:43:43of everything

00:43:44and send me away

00:43:45with a pathetic

00:43:46$250,000 payoff.

00:43:50Wait.

00:43:51You weren't supposed

00:43:52to know about

00:43:53that agreement.

00:43:54Of course you haven't

00:43:55shown it to me yet.

00:43:56You were waiting

00:43:57for Vivian to give birth,

00:43:58move the shares into place

00:43:59and then throw the divorce

00:44:00papers in my face.

00:44:02Too bad your devoted driver

00:44:03told me everything

00:44:04before you got the chance.

00:44:06George!

00:44:06That bastard

00:44:07sell me out?

00:44:08You should consider

00:44:09yourself lucky.

00:44:10He covered for you

00:44:12all these years.

00:44:13He didn't say a word

00:44:14until the day he retired.

00:44:16That still doesn't

00:44:16give him the right

00:44:17to sell me out!

00:44:18Sold you out?

00:44:19You paid him

00:44:20$2,000 a month.

00:44:21I gave him

00:44:22an extra $3,000

00:44:23every month

00:44:25because I wanted him

00:44:26to take good care

00:44:27of you on the road!

00:44:29I gave him

00:44:29holiday bonuses.

00:44:30I helped pay

00:44:31for his daughter's education.

00:44:33When his wife

00:44:33was hospitalized,

00:44:34I covered the bills.

00:44:35And you?

00:44:36All you ever did

00:44:37was complain

00:44:38that I was wasting money.

00:44:40So this was

00:44:40your plan all along?

00:44:42You've been buying

00:44:43the loyalty of everyone

00:44:44around me

00:44:45behind my back.

00:44:47Fine.

00:44:48Let's call it

00:44:49buying loyalty.

00:44:49loyalty.

00:44:50But even at that,

00:44:51Julian,

00:44:52you still can't

00:44:53compete with me.

00:44:54How dare you!

00:44:56All that rage

00:44:56only proves one thing,

00:44:57Julian.

00:44:58You're powerless.

00:44:59I must have been blind

00:45:00to waste 10 years

00:45:01on a man like you.

00:45:04$4 million

00:45:05and you can keep

00:45:06the villa.

00:45:07That has to be enough.

00:45:08You'll regret

00:45:09walking away

00:45:09from this offer!

00:45:13Trust me, Julian.

00:45:14I'm not the one

00:45:16who's going

00:45:16to regret this.

00:45:20She has no connections,

00:45:22no income,

00:45:23no one behind her.

00:45:24She's just a housewife.

00:45:25How the hell

00:45:25does she have the nerve?

00:45:36Sophie,

00:45:36thank you for coming.

00:45:38Hand them over.

00:45:39Sophie,

00:45:40this is all

00:45:41the information

00:45:41about those two

00:45:42offshore companies

00:45:43from Derek's computer.

00:45:44Passwords,

00:45:44accounts,

00:45:45transfer records

00:45:46and scanned copies

00:45:46of the original

00:45:47nominee agreements

00:45:48are all here.

00:45:48Until I say

00:45:49this is over,

00:45:50Julian doesn't hear

00:45:51a word about any of it.

00:45:52Understood?

00:45:53Of course!

00:45:53We won't tell him a word.

00:45:55That's enough.

00:45:56Go home.

00:45:57Sophie, I'm sorry.

00:45:58Before,

00:45:58I shouldn't have

00:45:59treated you like that.

00:46:00Your apology

00:46:01means nothing to me.

00:46:02I have somewhere to be.

00:46:04Bye.

00:46:10Grandpa,

00:46:12what's going on?

00:46:13Everyone,

00:46:13your attention,

00:46:14please.

00:46:14Take a good look.

00:46:15This is my granddaughter

00:46:16and she is the future head

00:46:18of Whitmore Materials Group.

00:46:20Welcome back,

00:46:21Ms. Whitfield.

00:46:21Welcome back,

00:46:22Ms. Whitfield.

00:46:23Grandpa,

00:46:24I don't know what to say.

00:46:25Everything here

00:46:26will be yours.

00:46:26You deserve to be

00:46:28welcomed properly.

00:46:29Come on,

00:46:30let's make your return official.

00:46:31Let's go.

00:46:33Here's an overview

00:46:34of our key clients

00:46:35from the past several years.

00:46:37Please review it.

00:46:38Maintain normal deliveries

00:46:40for every other client.

00:46:41Prescott Development Group

00:46:43is the exception.

00:46:43Its payments have been

00:46:45repeatedly delayed

00:46:46since last year

00:46:47with one invoice

00:46:48now four months past due.

00:46:50That violates

00:46:50Whitmore Materials Group's

00:46:51credit policy.

00:46:52But Prescott Development Group

00:46:54has been a stable

00:46:55clustamant for years.

00:46:57Mr. Julian

00:46:57has also assured us

00:46:59that

00:46:59Julian's promises

00:47:00don't matter.

00:47:01The contract does.

00:47:03Suspend deliveries

00:47:04to any client

00:47:05whose payments

00:47:06are more than

00:47:0660 days overdue.

00:47:07Any objections?

00:47:08Mr. Whitmore,

00:47:09would you like to weigh in?

00:47:10Follow Sophie's instructions.

00:47:14Her word

00:47:16carries the same

00:47:17authority as mine.

00:47:19I know Prescott Development Group's

00:47:20internal situation

00:47:21better than anyone

00:47:22in this room.

00:47:23So let me be clear.

00:47:25Julian betrayed me.

00:47:26He stole 10 years

00:47:27of my life.

00:47:28I am absolutely

00:47:29making him pay for it.

00:47:31But I haven't broken

00:47:32a single rule.

00:47:34Now,

00:47:34does anyone still

00:47:35have a problem

00:47:36with my decision?

00:47:37We fully support

00:47:38the lady boss.

00:47:39Fully support.

00:47:40We fully support

00:47:41the lady boss.

00:47:48You came in swinging.

00:47:50Your very first move.

00:47:51Put Prescott Development Group

00:47:52on the ropes.

00:47:53Damn,

00:47:53that was satisfying.

00:47:54Brilliant.

00:47:55I don't start wars,

00:47:56Rachel.

00:47:57But when someone

00:47:58comes for me,

00:47:59I finish them.

00:48:00Julian owes me this.

00:48:01Then I have

00:48:02the perfect follow-up.

00:48:03Let's give

00:48:04Miss Whitley

00:48:05and another chance

00:48:05to make Julian pay.

00:48:10You went through

00:48:11all of Derek's files already?

00:48:12Julian's real assets

00:48:13aren't the public

00:48:14$1 billion market value,

00:48:16but $170 million

00:48:17in actual disposable funds.

00:48:18Of this,

00:48:19at least $45 million

00:48:20went offshore,

00:48:21with $30 million

00:48:21under Vivian's name,

00:48:22while the rest sits

00:48:23in Prescott Development Group's

00:48:24company account.

00:48:25If we take this

00:48:26all the way to court,

00:48:27how much can I

00:48:27realistically recover?

00:48:29Marriage law dictates

00:48:30an equal split

00:48:30of joint assets,

00:48:31but his affair

00:48:32and asset transfers

00:48:33change things.

00:48:34Our lawyer confirms

00:48:34the court will favor you

00:48:35as the injured party.

00:48:36A conservative estimate

00:48:37puts your share

00:48:38at $60 to $75 million.

00:48:40What if we claw back

00:48:41everything he moved?

00:48:42If we recover

00:48:42everything Julian moved,

00:48:43you walk away

00:48:44with at least $90 million.

00:48:46$90 million?

00:48:47Not bad.

00:48:48I put $400,000

00:48:49into his startup

00:48:5010 years ago.

00:48:52The return on that investment

00:48:53is better than I expected.

00:48:55But it is not enough.

00:48:58What do you want?

00:48:59Prescott Development Group.

00:49:00You want to take

00:49:01the entire company

00:49:02away from Julian?

00:49:03I am not taking it

00:49:04from him.

00:49:05I am taking it back.

00:49:07Sophie, $90 million

00:49:08is already

00:49:09a substantial recovery.

00:49:10Going after

00:49:11the entire company

00:49:12is another matter.

00:49:12Scott Development Group

00:49:13wouldn't even exist

00:49:14without my money

00:49:15and my connections.

00:49:16I built his empire

00:49:17and now I'm going

00:49:17to tear it down.

00:49:18Rachel, leave Julian

00:49:19with nothing.

00:49:20Put him right back

00:49:21to where he was

00:49:2210 years ago.

00:49:23Empty, de-handed

00:49:24and irrelevant.

00:49:25That is his punishment.

00:49:34It's already been

00:49:35three days.

00:49:37Why the hell

00:49:37hasn't Sophie

00:49:38responded yet?

00:49:40She's made up her mind.

00:49:41She's going to fight

00:49:41this lawsuit

00:49:42to the bitter end.

00:49:42That shameless bitch.

00:49:44You offered her

00:49:45a generous settlement

00:49:45and she still has

00:49:46the nerve to refuse it.

00:49:47Let her keep feeding

00:49:48her greed.

00:49:49Sooner or saner,

00:49:50she's going to choke on it.

00:49:51I'll give her some time

00:49:52to calm down.

00:49:53Then I'll sit down

00:49:53with her and try

00:49:54to negotiate again.

00:49:55Julian, I don't care

00:49:56what it takes.

00:49:56Four million dollars

00:49:57is the most you are

00:49:58giving her,

00:49:59not one cent more.

00:50:00Every dollar beyond

00:50:01that belongs to my son.

00:50:02Vivian.

00:50:03Let her sue.

00:50:03She has no family

00:50:04behind her

00:50:05and no resources

00:50:05of her own.

00:50:06Prescott Development Group

00:50:07has an entire legal team.

00:50:08Why should you be

00:50:09scared of her?

00:50:10Rachel is not

00:50:11some amateur.

00:50:12Our lawyers reviewed

00:50:13the situation

00:50:14and they advised

00:50:15against going to war

00:50:16with her right now.

00:50:18Then what the hell

00:50:19am I supposed to think?

00:50:20You and your lawyers

00:50:21are useless!

00:50:21Vivian,

00:50:22and this isn't like you.

00:50:24You never used

00:50:24to talk like this.

00:50:25I have always been

00:50:26this person, Julian.

00:50:27I refuse to stay trapped

00:50:29in the life I was born into,

00:50:30done working myself

00:50:31to the bone

00:50:32and counting pennies

00:50:32just to survive.

00:50:34So,

00:50:34I studied you.

00:50:36I learned exactly

00:50:37what you liked

00:50:37and I molded myself

00:50:38into the perfect woman

00:50:39for you.

00:50:40So the sweet,

00:50:43understanding woman

00:50:44I knew never existed.

00:50:46Now that you have

00:50:47my son,

00:50:49you no longer

00:50:50need the costume.

00:50:51Is that it?

00:50:53I do love you.

00:50:54I never lied about that.

00:50:56But I love the money

00:50:57and the life

00:50:58that come with you too.

00:51:00Why should those things

00:51:01be mutually exclusive?

00:51:05How can you...

00:51:06What?

00:51:07Starting to regret

00:51:08choosing me?

00:51:09I just need a little time

00:51:11to get used to everything.

00:51:12You can regret me

00:51:14all you want.

00:51:15Julian,

00:51:16it changes nothing.

00:51:17Even if you never

00:51:18put a ring on my finger,

00:51:19still have a legal

00:51:20obligation to your son.

00:51:21He has inheritance rights

00:51:23and you cannot cut him

00:51:24out of your life

00:51:25or your estate.

00:51:27The law will make sure

00:51:29of that.

00:51:29Vivian.

00:51:30Your relationship

00:51:31is your own business.

00:51:32But this child

00:51:33stays with us.

00:51:35He is the heir

00:51:36to the Prescott family.

00:51:37One last thing.

00:51:40Julian,

00:51:41I looked into

00:51:42your medical history.

00:51:44Your fertility

00:51:45never improved.

00:51:46With a count

00:51:46and mobility that low,

00:51:48your chances of ever

00:51:49having another child

00:51:51are zero.

00:51:53You cornered me.

00:51:54Left me with

00:51:54absolutely nothing.

00:51:56This was your plan

00:51:57all along,

00:51:57wasn't it?

00:51:58I can't believe

00:51:59this is who you

00:52:00actually are.

00:52:01Change your mind

00:52:02if you want to.

00:52:03We don't have

00:52:04to get married.

00:52:05But I'll make sure

00:52:06you never lay eyes

00:52:07on your child again.

00:52:08No!

00:52:09You cannot let that happen!

00:52:10This is my grandson!

00:52:12Julian,

00:52:12think carefully!

00:52:14Vivian is only

00:52:14asking for reassurance.

00:52:16Give her what she wants!

00:52:19Alright.

00:52:20When you get out

00:52:21of the hospital,

00:52:22we will make it legal.

00:52:23Does that put

00:52:24your mind at ease?

00:52:24Transfer 40%

00:52:26of Prescott Development

00:52:27Group into my name.

00:52:28Once the shares

00:52:29are mine,

00:52:30I will sign

00:52:31the marriage license.

00:52:34Vivian,

00:52:34you...

00:52:35I have no interest

00:52:35in managing

00:52:36the company.

00:52:37You can remain

00:52:38in charge,

00:52:38but I will

00:52:39have the shares.

00:52:40That equity stale

00:52:41is the only real

00:52:42protection my son

00:52:43and I have.

00:52:43Our son is going

00:52:44to inherit

00:52:45everything I have.

00:52:46Why is that

00:52:46not enough?

00:52:47Why would I trust

00:52:48a promise like that?

00:52:49You cheated on Sophia

00:52:51and planned to

00:52:52throw her away.

00:52:52Once our son

00:52:53is older,

00:52:54you could do

00:52:54the same to me

00:52:55and fight me

00:52:56for custody.

00:52:56I have no income

00:52:57and you have

00:52:58an entire legal team.

00:53:01Without shares

00:53:02in my name,

00:53:02I could lose

00:53:03everything.

00:53:03You had this

00:53:04figured out

00:53:05from the beginning,

00:53:05did you?

00:53:06You abandoned

00:53:07Sophie for me

00:53:08and you could

00:53:08abandon me

00:53:09for another woman?

00:53:10I'm not as foolish

00:53:11and infatuated

00:53:12as she is.

00:53:13What I want

00:53:14is long-term security

00:53:15and that's an equity stake.

00:53:17Don't forget,

00:53:17Julian,

00:53:18my son is the only

00:53:19heir you'll ever have.

00:53:20He's the only one

00:53:21left to carry

00:53:21on your legacy.

00:53:23That makes me

00:53:23highly valuable to you

00:53:24so think very carefully.

00:53:26You closed off

00:53:27every exit

00:53:28before I even knew

00:53:29I was trapped.

00:53:30Do I have any choice

00:53:31left?

00:53:31Vivian,

00:53:32I underestimated

00:53:33you completely.

00:53:34You chose this,

00:53:35Julian,

00:53:36and you can't undo regret.

00:53:38I'm taking over now.

00:53:39Your mother

00:53:40and our son

00:53:41will be taken care of.

00:53:43That's one thing

00:53:44you'll never have

00:53:45to worry about.

00:53:48I heard you.

00:53:49Get some rest.

00:53:50I have a meeting

00:53:51to attend at the company.

00:53:55You have three days

00:53:56to put the share

00:53:57transfer equipment

00:53:58in front of me.

00:53:59Until those shares

00:53:59are secured,

00:54:00I will not have

00:54:00peace of mind.

00:54:03I know.

00:54:10Mr. Prescott!

00:54:13Can I have

00:54:14one damn minute

00:54:15of peace?

00:54:16Mr. Prescott,

00:54:17Whitmore Materials Group

00:54:18has issued a formal

00:54:18notice to us.

00:54:21What does it say?

00:54:22They are citing

00:54:23repeated breaches

00:54:24of our contractual

00:54:25payment terms.

00:54:26Effective immediately,

00:54:27Whitmore Materials Group

00:54:28is cutting off

00:54:29all building material

00:54:30supplies to every

00:54:31project we have

00:54:32under construction

00:54:33until we settle

00:54:33the outstanding

00:54:34balances in full.

00:54:36What the hell

00:54:37did you just say?

00:54:38They are cutting off

00:54:39materials to every

00:54:40active project?

00:54:42Mr. Prescott,

00:54:43we need a solution.

00:54:46We have three

00:54:47active construction

00:54:48projects,

00:54:49including Sierra Towers,

00:54:51which is 70%

00:54:52pre-sold.

00:54:52If our materials

00:54:53are cut off,

00:54:54we will miss

00:54:55our two-month

00:54:56delivery deadline.

00:54:56Sierra Towers

00:54:58alone faces

00:54:59a conservative

00:55:00$11 million

00:55:01million in damages,

00:55:03and that doesn't

00:55:03even count the

00:55:04fallout for the

00:55:05other two projects.

00:55:06We've always had

00:55:07a great partnership

00:55:08with Whitmore Materials

00:55:09Group.

00:55:10Even when our

00:55:11payments were delayed,

00:55:13they prioritized

00:55:14our supplies.

00:55:15Why would they

00:55:16suddenly cut off

00:55:16our building

00:55:17materials now?

00:55:18I asked around.

00:55:19They said,

00:55:20what did they say?

00:55:22They only backed

00:55:23Prescott as a favor

00:55:24to Ms. Whitmore.

00:55:25now she's enforcing

00:55:26the contract exactly.

00:55:28So?

00:55:29Ms. Whitmore?

00:55:30There isn't one

00:55:31in senior management.

00:55:32The only Whitmore

00:55:33running Whitmore Materials

00:55:34Group is Chairman Henry.

00:55:36Your...

00:55:38Your wife.

00:55:40Sophie.

00:55:41What the hell

00:55:42are you saying?

00:55:43Sophie was the one

00:55:44behind this?

00:55:47Julian,

00:55:48this is Ethan,

00:55:50a client relations

00:55:52manager at Whitmore

00:55:53Materials Group.

00:55:57Wait.

00:55:59Sophie did connect us

00:56:00to Whitmore Materials

00:56:02Group,

00:56:02but all she did

00:56:03was make an introduction.

00:56:04I'm the one

00:56:05who spent years

00:56:06maintaining that

00:56:07relationship.

00:56:08She spent all this

00:56:09time at home.

00:56:10How the hell

00:56:11could she have

00:56:11enough power

00:56:12at Whitmore

00:56:12to cut me off

00:56:13overnight?

00:56:14Mr. Prescott.

00:56:28Sophie, what exactly

00:56:30did you do?

00:56:31Nothing much.

00:56:33Your payments are

00:56:33overdue.

00:56:34So I simply told

00:56:35Whitmore Materials Group

00:56:36to stop supplying

00:56:37your construction materials.

00:56:38You think you can take

00:56:39revenge on me like this?

00:56:41Listen to me, Sophie.

00:56:42You are not going to win.

00:56:43Let's see which one of us

00:56:44is still standing

00:56:45when this is over.

00:56:46What the hell

00:56:46is your connection

00:56:46to Whitmore Materials

00:56:47Group?

00:56:48I spent ten years

00:56:49building that relationship.

00:56:50How did you cut me

00:56:51off just like that?

00:56:52Because my surname

00:56:53is Whitmore.

00:56:56Whitmore?

00:56:57Whitmore,

00:56:58as in the family

00:56:59that owns

00:56:59Whitmore Materials Group.

00:57:02Whitmore,

00:57:03as in

00:57:04Henry Whitmore,

00:57:06the chairman

00:57:06himself.

00:57:09You're

00:57:09Henry Whitmore's

00:57:11granddaughter?

00:57:13The one who

00:57:14left her family

00:57:14because of a man?

00:57:18Why is he here?

00:57:20Who knows?

00:57:21Now that our

00:57:22Ms. Whitmore

00:57:23is back on top,

00:57:24he probably came

00:57:25crawling over here

00:57:26to beg her to spare him.

00:57:28He had a woman

00:57:29like Ms. Whitmore

00:57:29at home and still

00:57:30chose to keep a mistress.

00:57:32Every bit of this

00:57:33is his own damn fault.

00:57:34I need to see Sophie.

00:57:36Do you have an appointment?

00:57:37No.

00:57:39Tell her I won't

00:57:39leave this Bowsing

00:57:40until she agrees

00:57:41to see me.

00:57:45Ms. Whitmore,

00:57:47Julian would like

00:57:47to see you.

00:57:48He says he won't

00:57:48leave unless you

00:57:49meet with him.

00:57:50Of course.

00:57:51Understood.

00:57:54Come with me.

00:57:57Mrs. Whitmore,

00:57:58Mr. Prescott

00:57:59has arrived.

00:58:01You may go now.

00:58:18Have a seat.

00:58:22You're really different

00:58:23from the woman

00:58:24you used to be.

00:58:27Whatever you came here

00:58:28to say,

00:58:28say it now.

00:58:29I have work to do.

00:58:31Sophie,

00:58:32you're the heir

00:58:32to Whitmore Materials Group.

00:58:34How could you keep

00:58:34something this important

00:58:35for me?

00:58:36I went against

00:58:37my grandfather for you.

00:58:38I gave up my family

00:58:40for you.

00:58:40And what did I get

00:58:41in return?

00:58:42I nearly got thrown

00:58:43out of my own home.

00:58:47The more I think about it,

00:58:49the more pathetic

00:58:49this whole thing feels.

00:58:51I was wrong.

00:58:52I handle it poorly,

00:58:54fine.

00:58:55But we built

00:58:56a life together.

00:58:57Are you truly prepared

00:58:58to leave me

00:58:59with absolutely nothing?

00:59:01Your payment deadline

00:59:02has passed.

00:59:03I'm doing exactly

00:59:04what the contract

00:59:05allows me to do.

00:59:06It was a temporary

00:59:07cash flow problem.

00:59:08Every real estate company

00:59:10is a few days late

00:59:11paying an invoice sometimes.

00:59:13That's how this industry

00:59:14works and you know it.

00:59:15I know.

00:59:16But I can give other

00:59:17real estate companies

00:59:18a chance.

00:59:19You don't get one.

00:59:21If I gave you a chance

00:59:22after everything you've done,

00:59:24I'd feel sick about it

00:59:25for the rest of my life.

00:59:27Julian,

00:59:28I'm taking over

00:59:29Prescott Development Group

00:59:30for good.

00:59:30Don't look to other

00:59:31suppliers for help either.

00:59:33I've convinced them all

00:59:34to follow Whitmore's lead

00:59:35and demand payment

00:59:36before delivery.

00:59:36Sophie!

00:59:37You're a cold-blooded,

00:59:38vicious woman.

00:59:39You don't care about loyalty

00:59:40or everything we've shared

00:59:41over the years.

00:59:42Right?

00:59:43If I weren't a bit ruthless,

00:59:44how could I possibly

00:59:45outwit you who's been

00:59:46pretending for ten years?

00:59:48You...

00:59:50Unless you have

00:59:51anything else,

00:59:53get the hell out.

00:59:54My time is worth

00:59:55too much to waste on you.

01:00:04Sophie,

01:00:05are you really going to

01:00:06take this all the way?

01:00:08See yourself out.

01:00:13How stupid would I have to be

01:00:15to give you another chance

01:00:16to cause trouble?

01:00:23Yeah?

01:00:24Julian,

01:00:25you haven't come to the hospital

01:00:26to see the baby

01:00:27in two days.

01:00:28We're being discharged today.

01:00:30Come pick us up.

01:00:31Fine.

01:00:31I know.

01:00:35Julian!

01:00:35I saw the news!

01:00:37Is Sophie really

01:00:38the Whitmore...

01:00:38Mrs. Whitmore?

01:00:39The only heir

01:00:40to Whitmore Materials Group?

01:00:42Is it true?

01:00:42It's true.

01:00:43What is it?

01:00:44Regret?

01:00:45Are you finally realizing

01:00:46what you cost your precious son?

01:00:48He had a golden ticket

01:00:49and he completely threw it away.

01:00:50That's not...

01:00:51That's fine.

01:00:51You can bring her back

01:00:52and make her your precious

01:00:53daughter-in-law again.

01:00:54I'll take my son and leave

01:00:55so she can have her kiss back.

01:00:57Oh!

01:00:58Vivian!

01:00:59Don't read too much into it.

01:01:00I was just curious.

01:01:02I was only asking.

01:01:04Enough!

01:01:05Let's go home first.

01:01:06Yeah.

01:01:15Julian,

01:01:15your three days are up.

01:01:17Where is the share transfer agreement?

01:01:19The company is about to go under

01:01:20and you're still thinking about shares?

01:01:22What do you mean?

01:01:23You were both so focused

01:01:24on Sophie going back

01:01:25to Whitmore Materials Group

01:01:26that you never stopped

01:01:27to think she might retaliate.

01:01:29Forty percent of our construction materials

01:01:30come from Whitmore.

01:01:32Now she's aggressively chasing

01:01:33every overdue payment.

01:01:34Whitmore is not the only

01:01:36building materials supplier

01:01:37in the city.

01:01:38She convinced every supplier

01:01:40to demand payment up front

01:01:41and all our cash

01:01:41is tied up in the project.

01:01:43If we can't survive this crisis,

01:01:44Prescott Development Group

01:01:45goes bankrupt.

01:01:46You want stock

01:01:47and a higher social status?

01:01:48Dream on!

01:01:49Is it really that serious?

01:01:50On my way to the hospital,

01:01:51the bank called demanding

01:01:52our four million dollars

01:01:53loan repayment

01:01:53or they'll freeze our assets.

01:01:55Plus,

01:01:55the divorce hits court

01:01:57the day after tomorrow.

01:01:58If we lose,

01:01:59she gets at least

01:02:00thirty percent of everything.

01:02:01Then go beg her, Julian.

01:02:02You were her husband.

01:02:03She used to hang on

01:02:04your every word.

01:02:04She loved you enough

01:02:05to give up everything for you.

01:02:06She might still listen.

01:02:07Begging will only give Sophie

01:02:08the chance to humiliate him.

01:02:09A wounded woman

01:02:10can be crueler than any man.

01:02:11Stop hoping she'll

01:02:12suddenly show mercy.

01:02:12She won't.

01:02:13I seriously underestimated

01:02:14just how calculating you are.

01:02:16I know you regret

01:02:17starting this with me.

01:02:18I know you're already

01:02:19sick of me,

01:02:20but I don't care.

01:02:21Sleep with as many women

01:02:22as you want after this.

01:02:23It makes no difference to me.

01:02:24You know,

01:02:25having my son gives you

01:02:25all the leverage you need

01:02:26and he'll be my only son.

01:02:28That's your whole plan,

01:02:29isn't it?

01:02:30Exactly.

01:02:30So even if you build

01:02:31another home with someone else

01:02:32and never come back here again,

01:02:33it doesn't matter to me.

01:02:34Turns out you're

01:02:35the coldest one of us all.

01:02:36Can love feed me?

01:02:37Can I cash it out and spend it?

01:02:38Can it secure

01:02:39the rest of my life?

01:02:40Come on, Julian.

01:02:40You're not some naive little boy

01:02:42who still thinks feelings

01:02:42are worth anything.

01:02:43You.

01:02:44Go kneel in front of Sophie

01:02:45and beg her

01:02:45where everyone can see you.

01:02:46The healthier people are,

01:02:47the more they care

01:02:47about their reputation,

01:02:48so use public pressure

01:02:49and guilt against her.

01:02:50I refuse to believe

01:02:51she'll remain unmoved.

01:02:52How can you be so cruel?

01:02:53Vivian,

01:02:54when Sophie was here,

01:02:55she always treated

01:02:56my mother with respect,

01:02:57but you-

01:02:57Stop bringing her up around me.

01:02:59You're the one

01:02:59who plotted to kick her out.

01:03:00Your little plan

01:03:01just blew up in your face

01:03:03and now you're stuck

01:03:04with no way forward

01:03:05and no way back.

01:03:06None of this would have happened

01:03:07if you hadn't seduced me.

01:03:08Oh, stop blaming me

01:03:10for your own choices.

01:03:11I didn't drag you

01:03:12into bed, Julian.

01:03:13You walked there yourself.

01:03:15Now you're looking at your son

01:03:16and pretending

01:03:17you're some tragic victim?

01:03:19Give me a break.

01:03:20You cheated on your wife

01:03:22and you got played.

01:03:24Deal with it.

01:03:24You fucking-

01:03:27Go on, hit me.

01:03:28Lay one finger on me

01:03:29and I'll take our son

01:03:30and disappear.

01:03:31You'll never see him again.

01:03:33If you don't believe me,

01:03:34try it.

01:03:35Julian, let it go.

01:03:36Just let it go.

01:03:38But Mom-

01:03:39All right.

01:03:41I'm going to check

01:03:41on my grandson.

01:03:42You two need to stop fighting.

01:03:44Cut the dutiful son routine, Julian.

01:03:46Everyone in this room

01:03:47knows you're a complete fraud.

01:03:50Vivian,

01:03:51how did you become like this?

01:03:52You know I'm impatient.

01:03:55Stop fighting among ourselves.

01:03:57If Sophie won't budge,

01:03:59fine.

01:03:59We go to court.

01:04:00We already hid most of our assets

01:04:02over the last few months anyway.

01:04:04Worst case scenario,

01:04:05she splits your remaining holdings.

01:04:08You make it sound so simple.

01:04:09What other choice do we have?

01:04:10If this keeps going,

01:04:11nobody wins.

01:04:12Let her get it out of her system.

01:04:13We lose some money,

01:04:14buy our way out of trouble

01:04:15and move on with our lives.

01:04:17Fine.

01:04:18That's the only move we have left.

01:04:19But I'll need the 30-min dollars

01:04:20sitting in your private accounts

01:04:21to keep the business afloat.

01:04:23No way.

01:04:23That money is my safety net.

01:04:25Nobody gets to touch it.

01:04:27You selfish.

01:04:28You've got three active developments.

01:04:30Sell off the other two

01:04:30and focus everything on Sierra Towers.

01:04:32There.

01:04:32Problem solved.

01:04:33Whitmore Materials Group

01:04:34won't have you by the throat anymore.

01:04:41Please be seated.

01:04:43The court is now in session

01:04:44for the divorce proceedings

01:04:45of Sophie Wetmore and Julian Prescott.

01:04:47Showing that Mr. Peekers

01:04:48showing that Mr. Peekers

01:04:49is through two offshore companies

01:04:50registered in the Cayman Islands.

01:04:52Kaywin Holdings and Luging International.

01:04:55How could she know about this?

01:04:57Over a three-year period,

01:04:59he moved a total of $45 million.

01:05:01Of that,

01:05:02$30 million

01:05:03ended up under the name

01:05:04of a third party,

01:05:06Miss Vivian.

01:05:07You transferred assets?

01:05:09This put you in a very bad position.

01:05:11Why didn't you tell me sooner?

01:05:11Gavin, you need to get me out of this.

01:05:13There has to be something you can do.

01:05:14What exactly do you expect me to do now?

01:05:16Counsel,

01:05:17order in the court.

01:05:18The plaintiff has shown

01:05:20sufficient evidence

01:05:20of massive asset transfers

01:05:22and ongoing risk.

01:05:25The application for property preservation

01:05:28is granted.

01:05:34Sophie, tell me exactly

01:05:35how much you want.

01:05:36Name your price

01:05:37and let's end this.

01:05:38I told you already.

01:05:40I'm taking you all the way back

01:05:41to the life you had 10 years ago.

01:05:43If you keep pushing me like this

01:05:44and Prescott Development Group collapses,

01:05:46you won't get any money either.

01:05:47We'll both lose everything.

01:05:48Even if I don't get a single cent,

01:05:50I will have my revenge.

01:05:52Besides,

01:05:52whether Prescott Development Group

01:05:53collapses or survives

01:05:55is entirely up to me.

01:05:577.5 million.

01:05:58I'll give you 7.5 million

01:05:59and the villa.

01:06:00Will that satisfy you?

01:06:01Not even close.

01:06:0315 million.

01:06:04Sophie, 15 million.

01:06:05That has to be enough, right?

01:06:07Vivian costs you over 30 million,

01:06:09yet you think you can get rid of me

01:06:10for half that?

01:06:12You seriously underestimate me

01:06:14if you think I'm someone

01:06:14you can just push around.

01:06:16And do you honestly think

01:06:17I care about your $15?

01:06:18I want all of it.

01:06:19Everything.

01:06:20Sophie, you've completely lost your mind.

01:06:22You're fucking crazy.

01:06:24How did she find out

01:06:25about the 30 million dollars

01:06:26you transferred to me?

01:06:27You said those transfers

01:06:28were well hidden.

01:06:29You said there was no chance

01:06:30anything could go wrong.

01:06:32But she knows now.

01:06:33I already told you

01:06:34that 30 million is my safety net.

01:06:36Even if you end up with nothing,

01:06:37I still need it to live on

01:06:38for the rest of my life.

01:06:39Nobody touches that money!

01:06:40Tell that to the judge.

01:06:41Go ahead.

01:06:44What do we do now?

01:06:45What choice do we have?

01:06:46We give Sophia whatever she wants.

01:06:47Right now, I only care about

01:06:48keeping Prescott Development Group alive.

01:06:50Even after I hand over

01:06:51half the shares,

01:06:52Derek still controls

01:06:53a block of stock for me.

01:06:55Add that to what I keep,

01:06:56and I'm still

01:06:57the largest shareholder.

01:06:58Prescott Development Group

01:06:59still answers to me.

01:07:00And once Sophie owns

01:07:01the second largest stare,

01:07:02she won't be able to destroy

01:07:03the company without destroying

01:07:04her own investment.

01:07:05Fine.

01:07:06You can give her the shares,

01:07:07but you are not touching

01:07:09a single cent of my money.

01:07:10The shares aren't enough.

01:07:12I also have to give her money.

01:07:13I don't have enough cash.

01:07:14How is that my problem?

01:07:15I already told you

01:07:17that 30 million

01:07:18is my safety net.

01:07:19It's mine!

01:07:20What did you just say?

01:07:22After everything that's happened,

01:07:23you still think

01:07:24you can walk away clean?

01:07:25You think this has

01:07:25nothing to do with you?

01:07:27Keep dreaming!

01:07:27What are you doing?

01:07:29Let her go!

01:07:31Why can't the two of you

01:07:32talk this through calmly?

01:07:34Mom, stay out of this.

01:07:36Give me the money

01:07:37and I'll go reconcile

01:07:37with her right now.

01:07:38It's the only way

01:07:39to save the company

01:07:40and keep your lifestyle.

01:07:41If you don't,

01:07:42the court will seize

01:07:43everything anyway.

01:07:45But I...

01:07:46The company is my life!

01:07:48If you won't give me

01:07:49the money to save it,

01:07:50then today is the end

01:07:51for both of us!

01:07:52Okay.

01:07:53Okay, I'll transfer it.

01:07:54Just let go of me.

01:07:55Transfer the money to me.

01:07:58Right now!

01:08:00Right now!

01:08:04Done.

01:08:05It's sent.

01:08:08I asked nicely before.

01:08:10Now, you don't get a choice.

01:08:14I'll give you half of the assets.

01:08:16I'll also give you half

01:08:17of the 61% state

01:08:18I currently hold.

01:08:19If you have no objections,

01:08:22sign the property

01:08:23settlement agreement.

01:08:26Oh!

01:08:27Why are you being

01:08:28so cooperative this time?

01:08:30Prescott Development Group

01:08:31can't afford to drag this out

01:08:32any longer.

01:08:33Is that the answer you wanted?

01:08:34But I'm still having fun, Julian.

01:08:36I'm nowhere near finished

01:08:37with you.

01:08:38Sophie, don't push this

01:08:39too far.

01:08:40I've already made

01:08:41the biggest concession

01:08:42I can.

01:08:43You're the one

01:08:44begging me for mercy.

01:08:45Are you sure that's the tone

01:08:46you want to use?

01:08:48You...

01:08:48Ms. Wittner,

01:08:49even if the court issues

01:08:50a ruling,

01:08:51the outcome would be

01:08:52substantially the same.

01:08:53If Prescott Development Group

01:08:54goes bankrupt,

01:08:55none of this will have

01:08:56any value to you.

01:08:57Wouldn't you agree?

01:08:59The agreement checks out.

01:09:01Everything is clean.

01:09:02All right.

01:09:06Now you can lift the restrictions

01:09:07on Prescott Development Group,

01:09:08right?

01:09:10The divorce comes first.

01:09:11Once it's finalized,

01:09:12I'll lift the restrictions.

01:09:13After all,

01:09:14I'm now a major shareholder

01:09:15in Prescott Development Group 2.

01:09:17I have no interest

01:09:18in losing money.

01:09:19Deal.

01:09:20That's it?

01:09:21You're just letting him go?

01:09:22Not a chance.

01:09:23I meant what I said.

01:09:25I'm going to ruin him

01:09:26until he has nothing left.

01:09:30Uncle Charlie,

01:09:31I've thought it over.

01:09:33I'm ready to talk

01:09:34through the partnership now.

01:09:35Sophie, I've been waiting

01:09:37for your call

01:09:37for three days.

01:09:39Then I'll come over shortly

01:09:41and we can catch up.

01:09:42Sounds good.

01:09:43I'll have the most delicious

01:09:44pastries waiting for you.

01:09:47This Uncle Charlie is?

01:09:49Charles Dawson.

01:09:50He's the powerhouse

01:09:51behind Luber Capital

01:09:51and a childhood friend

01:09:52of my father's.

01:09:53Two years ago,

01:09:54he threw Julian

01:09:54a financial lifeline

01:09:56in exchange for a 12% stake.

01:09:5812%?

01:09:59Plus the 17 T percent

01:10:00Derek is holding

01:10:01on Julian's behalf?

01:10:03That makes 29%.

01:10:05And Julian has to give me

01:10:07at least half

01:10:08of the 61% stake

01:10:09under his name.

01:10:10Then your total stake

01:10:11will exceed 50%?

01:10:13Exactly.

01:10:14The outcome of this battle

01:10:15was decided

01:10:16from the very beginning.

01:10:17Julian simply had no idea.

01:10:19Holy shit.

01:10:20You're a fucking genius.

01:10:23I'm one of Prescott

01:10:24Development Group's

01:10:25shareholders now.

01:10:26Set up a shareholders meeting.

01:10:27There is something

01:10:28important I need to announce.

01:10:34Let me introduce Sophie,

01:10:36the second largest shareholder

01:10:38in our company.

01:10:39She now holds

01:10:39a 30% stake.

01:10:41Please welcome her.

01:10:49I call for Julian's

01:10:50immediate removal

01:10:51as chairman

01:10:52and from the board.

01:10:54Sophie, are you

01:10:55out of your goddamn mind?

01:10:57Let's put it

01:10:58to a show of hands.

01:10:59Sophie,

01:11:01holding the same percentage

01:11:02of shares

01:11:03doesn't make you

01:11:03my equal.

01:11:04I built and ran

01:11:06Prescott Development Group

01:11:07for years.

01:11:08You can't just

01:11:09walk through the door

01:11:10and kick me out

01:11:11of my own company.

01:11:13You're delusional.

01:11:22Derek, what do you think

01:11:23you're doing?

01:11:25You're my cousin.

01:11:26You're only holding

01:11:27those shares

01:11:28on my behalf.

01:11:29How dare you betray me?

01:11:32Let's face it, Julian.

01:11:34This company only succeeded

01:11:36because of Sophie.

01:11:37I mean,

01:11:38Ms. Whittaker.

01:11:40Putting her in charge

01:11:41is the best thing

01:11:42that could happen

01:11:42to Prescott Development Group.

01:11:44I agree.

01:11:45Mr. Dawson,

01:11:47what exactly

01:11:48did Sophie offer you?

01:11:50Mr. Prescott,

01:11:51when you were raising capital,

01:11:52I purchased those shares

01:11:54because of Sophie.

01:11:55Without her,

01:11:56I never would have believed

01:11:57in your company,

01:11:58let alone invested

01:11:59a single dime.

01:12:04You...

01:12:05Of course,

01:12:07business is business.

01:12:09The company's interests

01:12:10come before everything else.

01:12:12Your personal affairs

01:12:14have already seriously damaged

01:12:15its share price

01:12:16and reputation.

01:12:18As a shareholder,

01:12:20I have a responsibility

01:12:20to protect my investment.

01:12:24The vote carries.

01:12:25As of today,

01:12:26Prescott Development Group

01:12:27will officially become

01:12:29Whitmore Development Group.

01:12:30You...

01:12:31You're destroying me!

01:12:32You're taking

01:12:33Prescott Development Group away!

01:12:35You're just stealing it!

01:12:37You're destroying me.

01:12:38You're taking

01:12:39Prescott Development Group away.

01:12:40You're just stealing it.

01:12:41It's already over, Julian.

01:12:42Prescott Development Group

01:12:43is gone tomorrow.

01:12:44I'm sending in a management team

01:12:45to restructure

01:12:45every single asset.

01:12:46I'm building a new company

01:12:47on your ashes.

01:12:48You're planning to dilute

01:12:49my shares too?

01:12:50If you have an objection,

01:12:51keep it to yourself.

01:12:51Your opinion no longer

01:12:52matters here.

01:12:53Fine.

01:12:54Sophie, you win.

01:12:55You took everything.

01:12:56Prescott Development Group

01:12:57is yours now.

01:12:59In addition,

01:13:00Ms. Whitmore,

01:13:01regarding the shares

01:13:02currently under my name...

01:13:03Out of that 17%,

01:13:052% becomes yours.

01:13:07Transfer 5% to George for me.

01:13:09The rest comes directly to me.

01:13:10Thank you, Ms. Whitmore.

01:13:11Thank you so much.

01:13:12We're done here.

01:13:13Meeting adjourned.

01:13:20Julian, you're back.

01:13:23We can finally be together

01:13:24and get married.

01:13:26Before she had the baby,

01:13:27this was exactly how she

01:13:28pretended to be innocent.

01:13:30What's wrong, sweetheart?

01:13:31Why are you looking at me like that?

01:13:37Honey, we need to give our child

01:13:38a complete family, don't we?

01:13:40Fine, we can get married.

01:13:41But understand this clearly,

01:13:42I'm doing it for my son,

01:13:43not for you.

01:13:44But you won't receive any shares.

01:13:46All of my assets

01:13:46will be premarital property.

01:13:48What?

01:13:48No!

01:13:49You have to give me

01:13:50half of the shares!

01:13:51You promised me!

01:13:52You still have the nerve

01:13:53to ask me for shares?

01:13:54Because of you,

01:13:55I was removed from the board.

01:13:57Prescott Development Group

01:13:58belongs to Sophie now!

01:13:59What did you say?

01:14:01Prescott Development Group

01:14:02no longer exists.

01:14:04Sophie renamed it

01:14:05Whitmore Development Group

01:14:06and the board threw me

01:14:07out of my own company!

01:14:08How did this happen?

01:14:09That's all because of you.

01:14:11Prescott Development Group

01:14:12is gone.

01:14:13And at least half

01:14:14of my remaining shares

01:14:15will be diluted.

01:14:16You made this mess, Julian,

01:14:17so stop crying victim!

01:14:18You promised me shares

01:14:19and I expect you to deliver

01:14:21even if it's 5%

01:14:22out of the 10 you have left!

01:14:23Try to cheat me

01:14:24and I will take our son

01:14:24so far away

01:14:25you'll never see him again.

01:14:26Watch your legacy end with you.

01:14:27Don't you dare!

01:14:28Try me!

01:14:30What's going on again?

01:14:31Why are you arguing again?

01:14:33Don't hurt the baby!

01:14:34Back off!

01:14:35Keep your hand off my baby!

01:14:38Mom, are you okay?

01:14:40I'm okay.

01:14:42You bitch!

01:14:43How dare you push my mother!

01:14:44I don't care about anything else.

01:14:46Give me my shares.

01:14:47Yes or no?

01:14:48Give me back my baby!

01:14:52Mom, take my son and go.

01:14:54Mom, you take the baby

01:14:55and go first.

01:14:56Okay, okay.

01:14:57Bring my son back!

01:14:59Give me my baby!

01:15:01Vivian, you like scheming so much

01:15:03but from now on

01:15:04don't even think about

01:15:05seeing my son again.

01:15:05I won't be threatened

01:15:06by you anymore.

01:15:07No!

01:15:08Come back!

01:15:08You can't take him from me!

01:15:10Give me my child!

01:15:11Julian!

01:15:12If you walk away with my son

01:15:14I swear I'll throw myself

01:15:16off this roof!

01:15:17Vivian, please calm down.

01:15:19Whatever you want

01:15:20we can discuss it.

01:15:21Julian, give me back my child

01:15:23and give me the shares.

01:15:25You promised me both!

01:15:28Go ahead and jump if you want.

01:15:30You are never getting

01:15:31my son back.

01:15:33Forget it.

01:15:34Julian, don't say that.

01:15:36Mom, she's only trying

01:15:37to scare us.

01:15:38Someone calculating as she is

01:15:39would never jump.

01:15:41Let's go.

01:15:43Julian!

01:15:44Wait!

01:15:47Vivian!

01:15:49Vivian!

01:15:50Vivian!

01:15:51Vivian!

01:15:52Vivian!

01:15:52Don't just stand there!

01:15:53Call 911!

01:15:58Grandpa, I put together

01:16:00the integration plan

01:16:01for Whitmore Materials Group

01:16:02and Prestid Development Group.

01:16:04Take a look when you have a minute.

01:16:06You don't need my approval

01:16:07for things like this anymore.

01:16:08I trust your judgment.

01:16:10Grandpa!

01:16:12You lost your parents so young

01:16:13and I'm not going to be around forever.

01:16:16You're the last of the Whitmeals.

01:16:19This legacy was always meant for you.

01:16:27I promise, Grandpa,

01:16:29I won't disappoint you.

01:16:31I believe Whitmore Materials Group

01:16:33will do even better

01:16:34under your leadership.

01:16:46Doctor, how is she?

01:16:48The patient's spine

01:16:49is severely damaged.

01:16:50Although her life has been saved,

01:16:52but she may be paralyzed

01:16:53for life in the future.

01:16:55How did it all come to this?

01:16:56We had a good family once.

01:16:58How did everything fall apart so fast?

01:17:01It's karma.

01:17:02This is our punishment.

01:17:04Yeah.

01:17:05This is our punishment.

01:17:09Every bit of it.

01:17:25Don't worry.

01:17:26I'll treat you right

01:17:27for the rest of my life.

01:17:29Sophie,

01:17:30I love you.

01:17:32I'll give you the world.

01:17:41What have I done?

01:17:42She gave me everything

01:17:44and I destroyed it

01:17:45with my own hands.

01:17:46I was wrong.

01:17:48God, I was so wrong.

01:17:49Julian.

01:17:51I can't undo any of it.

01:17:53I can never get her back.

01:17:55Never again.

01:17:57Fell off the rooftop?

01:17:58Is she okay?

01:17:59The spine was injured

01:18:00and the doctor said

01:18:01it's very likely

01:18:02she'll be paralyzed for life

01:18:03with little chance of recovery.

01:18:05Call it karma.

01:18:06She wanted to be the mistress

01:18:07and destroy a family,

01:18:08so she had no one

01:18:09to blame but herself.

01:18:10All right.

01:18:10That's enough.

01:18:11Leave me alone for a moment.

01:18:12Of course, Miss Whitwear.

01:18:20Julian.

01:18:22Julian.

01:18:25Shouldn't you be at the hospital

01:18:27with your little sweetheart?

01:18:28Why are you here?

01:18:29Sophie,

01:18:30I know I have no right

01:18:31to ask anything of you

01:18:32after what I did,

01:18:33but there is one thing

01:18:34I need you to agree with.

01:18:36Go ahead,

01:18:37but I'm not promising I'll agree.

01:18:38Buy out all the shares

01:18:39I have left.

01:18:40What's your price?

01:18:41$400,000.

01:18:42Brother,

01:18:43you're crazy!

01:18:4430% of the stock

01:18:45is enough to ensure you

01:18:46a worry-free life

01:18:46for the rest of your life.

01:18:48How could you sell it

01:18:48for just $400,000?

01:18:50Vivian is still lying

01:18:51in the hospital

01:18:52and your kid needs your support.

01:18:54I said $400,000.

01:18:56I gave you $400,000

01:18:57to get started 10 years ago.

01:18:59Are you giving everything back

01:19:01because you finally

01:19:02want to make amends?

01:19:04Or are you taking

01:19:05the same $400,000

01:19:06and trying again?

01:19:08Desperate to prove

01:19:09that your success

01:19:10was ever truly yours?

01:19:11Julian, don't do this.

01:19:12You're throwing everything away.

01:19:15Okay.

01:19:16I'll buy them.

01:19:17My son.

01:19:20Give him back to me.

01:19:22Vivian,

01:19:22you can't even move.

01:19:23We'll talk about it

01:19:24when you're doing better.

01:19:25I want it now!

01:19:27Give me back my son!

01:19:28That's my child!

01:19:30What right does your family

01:19:31have to take my child away?

01:19:33You're all a bunch of liars!

01:19:42Julian, you lying bastard!

01:19:45What are you screaming about?

01:19:48You can't move?

01:19:49How are you supposed

01:19:50to take care of a baby?

01:19:51Then give me my 30%.

01:19:53You promised me

01:19:54those shares, Julian.

01:19:55You are the reason

01:19:56I'm trapped in this bed.

01:19:57You owe me!

01:19:58The shares?

01:19:59They're gone.

01:20:00What?

01:20:01I sold all of my shares.

01:20:02You sold all of it?

01:20:03Go ahead.

01:20:04Guess what my entire

01:20:05stake was worth in the end.

01:20:06I don't care what you got

01:20:07for them.

01:20:07Just give me the money.

01:20:08I sold all of it

01:20:09for $400,000.

01:20:10You gave away

01:20:1130% of the company

01:20:12for $400,000?

01:20:14Julian, are you insane?

01:20:15How are our son

01:20:16and I supposed to live?

01:20:18Didn't you go

01:20:19to great lengths

01:20:19to marry me

01:20:20and become Mrs. Pressbot?

01:20:21We'll get married

01:20:22after you're discharged

01:20:23from the hospital

01:20:24and I'll let you be

01:20:25the legitimate

01:20:26Mrs. Pressbot

01:20:27for the rest of your life.

01:20:29No.

01:20:29Right and wrong

01:20:30stopped mattering

01:20:31a long time ago.

01:20:32Relax, Vivian.

01:20:33I won't leave you

01:20:34just because you're paralyzed.

01:20:36I'll be by your side

01:20:37for the rest of your life.

01:20:38You wanted me so badly.

01:20:40Now we can spend

01:20:41every remaining day

01:20:42destroying each other.

01:20:43No, I don't want

01:20:44to marry you anymore!

01:20:45Get away from me!

01:20:46Stay the hell away from me!

01:20:46I'd rather die

01:20:47than spend my life with you!

01:20:49Julian.

01:20:49Mom.

01:20:51Sophie gave me $400

01:20:5210 years ago

01:20:52and made my success possible.

01:20:54I sold every share

01:20:55back to her

01:20:55for exactly $400,000.

01:20:57The public statement

01:20:58is out

01:20:58and the agreement

01:20:58has been notifies.

01:20:59There is no undoing it now.

01:21:01This is the debt

01:21:01I owe her.

01:21:02Maybe this is how

01:21:03it has to end.

01:21:04At least now

01:21:05you've finally repaid

01:21:06what you owed her.

01:21:07Sophia!

01:21:08Again!

01:21:09Why does she get everything?

01:21:10Why are you all

01:21:11punishing me?

01:21:12Tell that bitch

01:21:12to give me my money back!

01:21:14Go ahead.

01:21:14Keep screaming.

01:21:16You can't go anywhere.

01:21:18Once you wear yourself out,

01:21:19at least we'll get

01:21:20some peace and quiet.

01:21:22I rebuilt Prescott Development Group

01:21:24and got it running again.

01:21:25Sierra Towers

01:21:26was delivered

01:21:26right on schedule.

01:21:28Starhaven Bay

01:21:28sold out

01:21:29on its very first day

01:21:30with $150 million

01:21:31in sales.

01:21:32Once WIP Materials Group

01:21:33and Prescott Development Group

01:21:34completed their integration,

01:21:36we controlled

01:21:36the entire supply chain

01:21:37from top to bottom.

01:21:38Our combined valuation

01:21:39soared past

01:21:40$2.25 billion.

01:21:43Where's Sophie?

01:21:44Make her come here

01:21:45and see me!

01:21:45Vivian,

01:21:46if you keep causing trouble

01:21:47we'll bring you out.

01:21:48Exactly.

01:21:48After what you've done,

01:21:49you still have the nerve

01:21:50to come looking for Miss Whitmore?

01:21:51Have you no shame?

01:21:52I lost the shares

01:21:53and the money?

01:21:54Why the hell

01:21:54should I care about shame?

01:21:56Get that bitch Sophie

01:21:57out here!

01:21:59What's going on here?

01:22:01You bitch!

01:22:02Give me back

01:22:03the money and the shares!

01:22:04They were supposed

01:22:05to be mine and my son!

01:22:06Are you done

01:22:07making a scene?

01:22:12Julian,

01:22:13that bitch called you here

01:22:13to throw me out,

01:22:14didn't she?

01:22:15I am not going anywhere!

01:22:17I would rather die right here

01:22:19than leave without my shares!

01:22:20Fine.

01:22:21If you're not leaving,

01:22:22neither am I.

01:22:24I'll sit right here

01:22:25for as long as you

01:22:26want to keep this up.

01:22:37Later,

01:22:38Julian took Vivian

01:22:39and left the city.

01:22:40I heard that

01:22:41when Vivian left,

01:22:42she cursed Julian,

01:22:44Margaret,

01:22:45and me.

01:22:46Years later,

01:22:47I heard from Derek

01:22:48that Julian and Vivian

01:22:49had been torturing

01:22:50each other painfully

01:22:51all along.

01:22:52By their 40s,

01:22:53they looked like

01:22:54they were in their 60s.

01:22:56However,

01:22:57all this has nothing

01:22:58to do with me anymore.

01:23:00Grandpa was getting older.

01:23:02Every day,

01:23:03I made time

01:23:04to be with him

01:23:05so he could enjoy

01:23:06the comfort

01:23:06of having his family close.

01:23:09He encouraged me

01:23:10to find someone suitable

01:23:11while I was still young.

01:23:13I declined,

01:23:15and he never brought it up again.

01:23:20Now,

01:23:21let's welcome

01:23:22our chairperson,

01:23:23Sophie Whitmore,

01:23:24to give a speech.

01:23:30Miss Whitmore,

01:23:37May I ask,

01:23:38what is the secret

01:23:39to your success?

01:23:40Choose the right path.

01:23:41Stay away

01:23:42from the wrong people.

01:23:44Never look back

01:23:45at the past.

01:23:47looking back

01:23:48on your many years

01:23:48of business career,

01:23:49who do you most appreciate?

01:23:55A driver.

01:23:57A driver?

01:23:59On the day he retired,

01:24:00he told me a secret.

01:24:01That secret changed my life.

01:24:03It pulled me out of the mud,

01:24:05helped me wash myself clean,

01:24:07and made it possible

01:24:08for me to stand here today.

01:24:10Miss Whitmore,

01:24:11what are your next plans?

01:24:12Over the next five years,

01:24:14Whitmore Materials Group

01:24:16a market value

01:24:17of $15 billion.

01:24:19Oh!

01:24:21Some people enter your life

01:24:23so you can grow.

01:24:23Some pain becomes

01:24:25your strongest armor

01:24:26once you've made it through.

01:24:28takes you next,
