Full Episode of Midlife Sparks with a Billionaire Taxi Driver
Transcript
00:00:00Olivia. Dad, you must go to Aunt Lana's matchmaking event.
00:00:07Right, right, I know, I'm on my way. Tommy, delay the presentation, I have to go to a matchmaking event.
00:00:14Matchmaking event? Of course. And sir, we found out the designer Amber, she's not the one who saved you back then.
00:00:22You were right, she's been deceiving you.
00:00:30Oh man, I just saw Marilyn Monroe. Oh no, this isn't good.
00:00:51Oh my god, I'm so sorry, are you alright? I really didn't mean to.
00:00:55I'm fine.
00:00:56I'm terribly sorry, I'll tell you what, this car is yours for today. Wherever you need to go, I'll take you.
00:01:03I really am running late for the matchmaking event.
00:01:07Okay, could you take me to Moonshadow Cafe, 5th Street?
00:01:12What a coincidence, that's the same address Olivia sent me.
00:01:16Please.
00:01:30Hey, thank you for the lovely ride.
00:01:40To Central Avenue now. We need to leave now, I'm in a rush.
00:01:45Come on, don't dawdle, let's go.
00:01:52We could get married, but first, you must have two more children for me.
00:02:04Good luck, good luck, take care.
00:02:11Hi.
00:02:12Hi.
00:02:13We could get married, but first I'd have to discuss this with my boyfriend.
00:02:19And we would need to sign a prenuptial agreement.
00:02:23I love your dress.
00:02:25I've had enough.
00:02:27Never mind.
00:02:29It's you.
00:02:31What a surprise.
00:02:34It's you.
00:02:36What a surprise.
00:02:38Allow me to introduce myself properly.
00:02:40I'm Alaric, Alaric Miller.
00:02:43Olivia's father.
00:02:45It is great to see you again, Alaric Miller.
00:02:48I am Lana Cooper.
00:02:51Please, take a seat.
00:02:54I'm truly pleased to meet you, Lana Cooper.
00:02:56I actually came here today to thank you personally.
00:02:58Octavia told me about the allergic shock incident, and you stepped in to help.
00:03:02Yeah, Olivia, she is a good girl.
00:03:05You know, whether or not I'd been there that day, I am sure God would have sent someone to take care of her.
00:03:10Regardless, I'm very grateful.
00:03:12Olivia means a lot to me.
00:03:14She's actually my adopted child. I've never married her, it's just always been her and me.
00:03:18Yo.
00:03:21Octavia, I missed you so much.
00:03:23Are you free tonight?
00:03:25Oh, God.
00:03:30Listen, all right? You got two choices.
00:03:33Pay up, or go with the boss.
00:03:42No.
00:03:45No, no, no.
00:03:47Get out of there.
00:03:48No, no.
00:03:50Get out of there.
00:03:51No.
00:03:56Lana, how dare you date another man behind my back.
00:04:00What am I going to do with you, huh?
00:04:02Sir, mind your behavior.
00:04:04Who the hell are you?
00:04:06This is my woman, you get it?
00:04:08I don't care who you are. Lana doesn't like you.
00:04:11Rick, we have been divorced now for five years. Why are you still harassing me?
00:04:17You stole so much money from me. You betrayed me. You're a scumbag.
00:04:21You son of a bitch.
00:04:25Listen, if you ever bother her again, I'll make you regret being born.
00:04:35Are you okay? Did he hurt you?
00:04:39Thank you. I don't know what I can say. Thank you.
00:04:43You don't need to do anything. Don't you remember? You saved my daughter's life.
00:04:47I don't need anything in return. I'm just glad to be able to protect somebody important to me.
00:04:54Don't worry. It will pass.
00:05:03Will you marry me?
00:05:07Will you marry me?
00:05:21Dad?
00:05:23You should meet Elana.
00:05:25She's a really nice person.
00:05:27She saved me and refused any rewards.
00:05:30She wouldn't even take the money.
00:05:32Are you sure it wasn't because she didn't offer her enough and she wasn't interested in your little gesture?
00:05:36No way. She doesn't seem like she cares about it at all.
00:05:40Dad, once you meet her, I promise, I'll stop nagging you about getting married.
00:05:50Was I too impulsive just now? I had no other choice.
00:05:54Maybe I should be braver and give it one last try.
00:06:02Yes.
00:06:12I do need to get back though.
00:06:15Tomorrow's dessert stall, it's not ready yet.
00:06:18No cupcakes, they won't bake themselves and ice cream won't scoop itself into the freezers.
00:06:23Understood. I actually need to get back too.
00:06:25I have a whole crowd of customers waiting to experience the Alaric luxury fantasy adventure.
00:06:32Okay, we'll see you next time, Mr. Fantasy Adventure Alaric.
00:06:37Oh.
00:06:46Dad, how come you're back so early? I thought...
00:06:49What are you wearing?
00:06:52Oh my god! You're marrying? To Elana?
00:06:56That's wonderful. I'm so happy for you.
00:06:59I told her I drive a taxi, she didn't mind at all.
00:07:02I told you so. So, when are you planning to tell her your real identity?
00:07:07Oh, let's wait a little bit. Driving a taxi isn't so bad.
00:07:23Where's my money, bitch?
00:07:27Listen, I don't have any money left, okay? And I'm married now, so you can't...
00:07:33You're married? To that taxi driver from today? Well, just get the money from him then.
00:07:37No, he doesn't have the kind of money you're looking for, okay?
00:07:39Then why did you marry that poor bastard, huh?
00:07:42Listen, Elana, you don't get it, do you? You don't get it.
00:07:45I don't care where you get the money from, okay?
00:07:48What's yours is mine. You owe me. Or I will take it, okay?
00:07:52No! No, please don't! Please don't!
00:07:57What are you doing? Let go of my mom!
00:08:00Oh, look. It's an old bastard you raised. Come to protection.
00:08:04Listen up, punk. Your mom has married some poor taxi driver.
00:08:08I don't know what else he's got. I don't know what he's going to get from you.
00:08:11Yeah, mind your own business. I'm telling you, if you cause any more trouble,
00:08:14I'll make you regret it for the rest of your life.
00:08:17Tough guy, huh? Why don't you come over here and show me how you're going to handle me, huh?
00:08:21I don't need to. Let's call the police.
00:08:25Let's call the police.
00:08:28You've got guts, kid. Come out of here anyway!
00:08:34You owe me!
00:08:37Are you okay, Mom?
00:08:39I'm fine. I'm fine.
00:08:41What's this about you getting married?
00:08:43He doesn't have much money, but he's a good man.
00:08:46What good does that do if he can't support you?
00:08:48Now calm down, Ryan, okay? He has a legitimate income.
00:08:51Now that Rick knows we're married, hopefully he just stops bothering us.
00:08:56What are you doing here? Is everything okay?
00:08:59Yeah, yeah. It's Julia. She's pregnant.
00:09:04And we're planning to get married.
00:09:06That's wonderful.
00:09:09Just take good care of her.
00:09:12I will. I will.
00:09:14But, you know, houses are really expensive.
00:09:18Getting married, having a kid, raising a child, it all costs us money.
00:09:24Hang on.
00:09:27This is all the money I've saved.
00:09:30This should get us by for a while.
00:09:33Thank you, Mom. You're the best.
00:09:40I knew I should sell my house.
00:09:44Oh, hey, hey, hey.
00:09:50This is top-notch luxury service, especially for you today.
00:09:55You're selling this place?
00:09:57Yeah, I'm making plans for my grandson.
00:09:59Where will you live?
00:10:01Well, that is a great question.
00:10:03I need to start making some plans for myself, too.
00:10:06Well, come live with me. We're married, aren't we?
00:10:09Yeah, that kind of new home is not bad.
00:10:13Feels like, you know, freedom to be able to hit the road any time.
00:10:16That's not what I meant.
00:10:24This is your home.
00:10:28It's very open.
00:10:31Yeah, kind of, for now.
00:10:36Please help me find a smaller apartment. Nothing too fancy.
00:10:40Sure.
00:10:41How big do we want? 6,500?
00:10:44No, no, no. Let's keep it simple.
00:10:46How about 650 square feet?
00:10:49For the bathroom, right?
00:10:51The whole apartment should be 650 square feet.
00:10:55Okay.
00:10:57Oh, Tommy, look what you've done.
00:10:59I really can't trust your jokes.
00:11:01It's my friend's place.
00:11:03He's abroad, so we can stay as long as we want.
00:11:06And about the furniture?
00:11:09Mr. Montgomery, here's the furniture you ordered.
00:11:12Please sign and confirm.
00:11:15Montgomery?
00:11:17Montgomery?
00:11:22Thank you, Mr. Chairman.
00:11:23Mr. Chairman, we wish you both a wonderful stay.
00:11:27Did he just call you the chairman?
00:11:30They must be mixed up. I'm not the chairman.
00:11:33My friend is. This must be some kind of VIP service.
00:11:39Oh, wow, look at that. Such a nice garment.
00:11:46She's perfect.
00:11:48But that outfit, it doesn't do her justice.
00:11:53Oh, no. I forgot the wedding room.
00:11:55So, how's your breakfast?
00:11:57Amazing. Better than any Michelin-star restaurant.
00:12:00Well, you certainly flatter me like you've been to many of them.
00:12:03Oh, well.
00:12:05Oh, remember the lunch that I made for you? I need to head to work.
00:12:09Wait. Don't work today.
00:12:12I want to show you something.
00:12:18Oh, no. My heart is beating so fast.
00:12:22It feels so good to be with her.
00:12:28What do you want?
00:12:30A wedding ring.
00:12:32We're just looking.
00:12:37It's way too expensive.
00:12:40Expensive? Then don't buy it.
00:12:43This is a top-tier luxury store. Not just anyone can stroll in here.
00:12:47Plus, at your age, why are you even buying wedding rings?
00:12:52We'll take this one.
00:12:54Are you sure? That's part of our latest collection.
00:12:57I'm not sure.
00:12:59We don't allow try-ons.
00:13:01Well, how are we supposed to know if it fits if we can't try it on?
00:13:04Let's just go.
00:13:06Yeah, that's a good idea.
00:13:08We might have better luck at a different store.
00:13:10It's just the kind of service that represents your brand.
00:13:12We're not going to waste our money on stuff like this, especially considering your situation.
00:13:16Let's just save our money for a pair of pockets.
00:13:20Just look at the poverty-stricken air about you.
00:13:22Merely having you here makes our air feel cheap.
00:13:25What did you just say? Say that again.
00:13:28If you can't afford it, just say so. Why pretend to be rich?
00:13:32How do you know what I can afford?
00:13:34Show us your credit card.
00:13:39Open your eyes and look closely.
00:13:43Open your eyes and look closely.
00:13:46Open your eyes and look closely.
00:13:52Is this a JP Morgan Reserve card made from 24 karat gold?
00:13:56Only available to super wealthy individuals who have assets at $10 million.
00:14:02How is this possible? I've never seen one of these and I've been working here for years.
00:14:06Is this a fake?
00:14:08Where did you get this?
00:14:10I came prepared.
00:14:12Call your manager over.
00:14:14Who is asking for me?
00:14:17I'm so sorry.
00:14:19I truly didn't expect it to be you.
00:14:22Please forgive me.
00:14:24It's okay, you're forgiven.
00:14:26I'm just a regular taxi driver with my newlywed wife looking at wedding rings.
00:14:30Who gave you the audacity to treat our esteemed guest rude?
00:14:33Manager, they're just two old folks with no money.
00:14:36Why bother?
00:14:37Shut your mouth.
00:14:38From now on, we're not going to be friends.
00:14:41Why bother?
00:14:42Shut your mouth.
00:14:43From now on, you're fired.
00:14:45Manager!
00:14:46Hurry everyone, bring over our finest, most expensive, most dazzling jewelry.
00:14:52Sir, Madam, today is the most special day in our store.
00:14:56Everything is free.
00:14:57Pick anything you like.
00:14:58We guarantee your satisfaction.
00:15:00In that case, we'll start with the most expensive.
00:15:03Tell your wallet it can relax today.
00:15:12Did you really know that, Manager?
00:15:14Kind of.
00:15:36Look at you.
00:15:39Look at you, living in the clouds.
00:15:42You've been with Elena for so long, and you're still not planning for a wedding?
00:15:47Well, Elena told me she doesn't really have any family here, just an adopted son.
00:15:51And you know my current situation is complicated.
00:15:54It's just not the right time for a wedding yet.
00:15:56Plus, she worries about me spending money.
00:15:59And who says weddings have to be luxury and wasteful?
00:16:03You need to put that upper class mentality away.
00:16:06Plus, Elena doesn't go for that.
00:16:09Then what do you think I should do?
00:16:11Leave it to me.
00:16:13Hey, just remember you can't call her Aunt Lana anymore.
00:16:17Roger that, boss. It's Mama Lana now.
00:16:26Here you are.
00:16:27Thank you, sweet mama.
00:16:29Oh, my little princess.
00:16:31I do love when you call me mom.
00:16:33Mom, you will always love me, right?
00:16:36Of course, sweetheart.
00:16:37Just as much as ice cream? I never get tired.
00:16:39But even if I ruined all your makeup?
00:16:42Oh, no, that one depends.
00:16:44But generally, I still love you more.
00:16:47Then can I keep sneaking chocolates from your fridge?
00:16:52You little devil!
00:16:54But how can I say no to that face?
00:16:56You're the best.
00:16:58And you, my favorite little troublemaker.
00:17:00Mom, come with me.
00:17:02I have a surprise for you.
00:17:04No need.
00:17:05You're the best gift a mom could ask for.
00:17:07Trust me, you're going to love it.
00:17:09Don't run so fast, my elbows can't keep up.
00:17:12You don't have time. Come on, you have to get changed.
00:17:15This must be a friend's dinner party, right?
00:17:17She's amazing.
00:17:19Not at all.
00:17:21Surprise.
00:17:27Let's go.
00:17:33Friends, family, and dogs,
00:17:38thank you all for coming to witness this blessed union.
00:17:42Now, please, let the couple exchange their vows.
00:17:47I do.
00:17:49I do.
00:17:52I do.
00:17:54I do.
00:18:09This wedding is so tacky.
00:18:11Hayden, she said your mom was rich.
00:18:13She told me all of her money went into my education.
00:18:15How can there be enough for such a lavish wedding?
00:18:18Let me tell you this, Brayton.
00:18:20Our wedding has to be ten times more grand.
00:18:25I'm not very good at this.
00:18:28I'll teach you.
00:18:39I love you, my dear.
00:18:41I love you, too.
00:18:50I love you, too.
00:19:15How did this happen?
00:19:17It's a cut from a shard of glass.
00:19:31From now on, I'll take good care of you.
00:19:34I won't let anybody hurt you again.
00:19:47I love you.
00:20:05I'm going to Ryan's engagement party tonight.
00:20:07I just...
00:20:09As his mother, I cannot embarrass him.
00:20:11How much do I wear?
00:20:13Mom, try all of these.
00:20:16Okay.
00:20:39Yes, this one's perfect.
00:20:41Dad, what do you think?
00:20:44Uh, yeah.
00:20:46Absolutely beautiful.
00:20:48Well, Olivia, she has such a great sense of style.
00:20:51I mean, this dress looks well-made
00:20:53and looks expensive.
00:20:55How much is it?
00:20:57$22.
00:20:59No, no, no, no, no.
00:21:00It's not that expensive.
00:21:02Don't worry.
00:21:04It's an insider price.
00:21:06Insider price, yes.
00:21:07But, Olivia, you only just started working.
00:21:09How can you afford something like this?
00:21:10No, no, don't worry, dear.
00:21:11This is from Olivia's friend's shop.
00:21:13It's all insider price.
00:21:14Very cheap.
00:21:16Really?
00:21:17Absolutely.
00:21:19Okay, well, that makes me feel better.
00:21:21I'm meeting Julia's parents today.
00:21:23I'm so nervous.
00:21:25Apparently, there's some big-shot CEOs
00:21:27of True Food Partners or something like that.
00:21:29Whew, I feel better.
00:21:31Well, now, let's go fix your makeup then.
00:21:34Okay.
00:21:35True Food Partners?
00:21:37Isn't that the small company
00:21:38bidding for our Montgomery Group's
00:21:40$30 million project?
00:21:43The $30 million project.
00:21:45Let the True Food Partners sign it.
00:21:47Consider it a gift for Lana's children.
00:21:57Marcus, glad you could make it tonight.
00:21:59We have a lot to catch up on.
00:22:01We've been waiting so long for you.
00:22:03Have a drink.
00:22:04Tonight, you're our guest of honour.
00:22:07I'm happy to be here for such a special day.
00:22:09Today, I also have some good news.
00:22:11$30 million project.
00:22:13Our chairman has chosen your company.
00:22:15Really?
00:22:16Oh!
00:22:17Yes.
00:22:20That's all for now.
00:22:22Our chairman has other important guests.
00:22:24You'll meet him.
00:22:25All right, well, I'll have to catch up one-on-one.
00:22:29It's so...
00:22:30It's so amazing.
00:22:32It's...
00:22:33God, it's so...
00:22:35Yeah.
00:22:40Mom, why are you wearing that dress?
00:22:43I've seen that dress before.
00:22:44It costs like $10,000.
00:22:46There's no way she could afford that.
00:22:48Must be a rental.
00:22:50Such vanity.
00:22:51Anyways, it doesn't matter how expensive her clothes are.
00:22:54She can't hide her impoverished roots.
00:22:58Wait, is she the poor woman that's been taking advantage of our family?
00:23:01Doesn't she work down at that ice cream or dessert stall or whatever down by the beach?
00:23:06Listen, I just came here to see Julia and...
00:23:09What are you doing?
00:23:13What are you doing?
00:23:15How do you think that somebody like you is worthy to touch this precious baby inside Julia's belly?
00:23:23Exactly.
00:23:24You can't have someone with such an impoverished aura coming around.
00:23:27What if the Carter family has to deal with that later on?
00:23:37Good evening, sir.
00:23:38This way, please.
00:23:39Where's Marcus?
00:23:40Today's your son's engagement party.
00:23:42He's already...
00:23:43He's in Montgomery.
00:23:44I just delivered a gift for your son.
00:23:46Also, the chairman of the Estereo Global Holdings is waiting for you in the Royal Suite.
00:23:51Well done.
00:23:52Have the hotel address set in place for the engagement party like ours.
00:23:55I'll take care of it right away.
00:24:01Uh, Mom.
00:24:04Mom.
00:24:05You didn't have to bring us a gift.
00:24:07What is it?
00:24:08It's just some cookies I made and I hope you guys...
00:24:12Oh, my God!
00:24:13Get away from us!
00:24:14I'm allergic to poor people.
00:24:18I'm allergic to poor people's stuff.
00:24:21Julia, is this seriously the man you're going to marry?
00:24:23You can't even bring her anything nice or expensive.
00:24:26Just a cheap box of cookies?
00:24:29Julia, please don't do this to me.
00:24:32I'm begging you.
00:24:33Give me some dignity here.
00:24:34Look, I didn't mean anything by it.
00:24:37All I want to do is just see you guys happy.
00:24:39That's all I need.
00:24:40Well, satisfied?
00:24:43God, Julia is so out of his league.
00:24:47Are you kidding?
00:24:48Brian has always worked hard.
00:24:50He's not a toad.
00:24:52Working hard?
00:24:53He has a job at my company because of my daughter.
00:24:56Things have changed.
00:24:57Things have changed.
00:24:58Now we have a very important partner with the Montgomery Company.
00:25:02Good evening.
00:25:03This is a token from our chairman.
00:25:05Oh, my God.
00:25:06My goodness.
00:25:07This is a $20,000 bottle of the Screaming Eagle.
00:25:10Oh, my God.
00:25:11We've got to pop this open.
00:25:13Please convey my gratitude to Mr. Montgomery
00:25:17and we will put our full effort into this project.
00:25:21Now the whole Montgomery revolves around us
00:25:24and you parasites cling to the powerful.
00:25:26Aren't you ashamed?
00:25:27It's hilarious.
00:25:28These wedding expenses will be tenfold
00:25:31and your family will get the bill.
00:25:33No.
00:25:34Please.
00:25:35Please don't treat us that way.
00:25:37I promise you we really don't have that much money.
00:25:40I beg you.
00:25:41Please don't force us.
00:25:43You vile woman.
00:25:44How dare you hurt my sister.
00:25:47Julia, please just don't force us.
00:25:49Julia, you vile woman.
00:25:51How dare you hurt my sister.
00:25:53Mom.
00:25:55This will be a great business venture for the both of us.
00:25:58Very profitable for sure.
00:26:00Sir.
00:26:03I'm expecting a play to give me a father.
00:26:06What?
00:26:07I dare bully Lana.
00:26:09Oh, my gosh.
00:26:10Sweetheart.
00:26:11Are you okay?
00:26:12Oh, my God.
00:26:13I'm so worried.
00:26:14Please tell me.
00:26:15Are you okay?
00:26:16My precious baby.
00:26:18You wretch.
00:26:19Get out.
00:26:25You're the one who needs to get out.
00:26:31Are you okay?
00:26:33Don't worry.
00:26:34I'm here.
00:26:36Who the hell are you?
00:26:37And what's it to you?
00:26:39Dad.
00:26:40Shut up, dumbass.
00:26:42Who the hell are you to slap my husband?
00:26:45Mom, isn't that the cab driver?
00:26:48Aw.
00:26:49Look at him all dressed up.
00:26:51Here, I thought we had pissed off some big shot.
00:26:55What is wrong with being a taxi driver?
00:26:57We have worked hard for our money.
00:26:59You guys just have no right.
00:27:01Look at you.
00:27:03Do you really think you can compare with us?
00:27:06Let me tell you.
00:27:07The Carter family is way out of your league.
00:27:15Tommy.
00:27:16Hold a project.
00:27:17Stop all dealings with the Truvial Partners.
00:27:19And blacklist them.
00:27:20Blacklist the whole damn Carter family.
00:27:22Who the hell are you to say blacklist?
00:27:24Because of these two penniless losers.
00:27:27Kid, we are the Montgomery's.
00:27:29Security, get them the hell out of here.
00:27:32What?
00:27:33What?
00:27:34Mom.
00:27:37Mom, are you okay?
00:27:38How come you got hurt like this?
00:27:40Don't worry, sweetheart.
00:27:41I'm fine.
00:27:42Thankfully, your father got there just in time.
00:27:44But why did they hit you?
00:27:47Wasn't Ryan there?
00:27:49Just a bunch of bullies abusing their power.
00:27:51An adopted son of yours?
00:27:53To be honest, I'm disappointed.
00:27:54He just stood there and said nothing.
00:27:56While you're being bullied.
00:27:58How could he do that?
00:28:00No, I can't blame him.
00:28:02Ryan, he has been struggling for years now.
00:28:05And he's got a family to support.
00:28:07And I just can't make things even more difficult for him.
00:28:11I just, I need to be able to handle these things myself now.
00:28:15But he can't just stand by and watch.
00:28:17It's not his fault.
00:28:18Things were never easy for him.
00:28:21I rescued him years ago.
00:28:23We did everything we could to just try and give him a good family.
00:28:27But then, Rick, he just, he just never accepted him from the start.
00:28:31How could he do that?
00:28:33He wasn't always like he was now.
00:28:35He used to be actually a really good father.
00:28:38We once had a daughter named Emma.
00:28:41Emma?
00:28:42Emma!
00:28:43Emma!
00:28:44Where did she go?
00:28:46The day that I rescued Ryan, Emma disappeared.
00:28:49We did everything we could to just try and find her.
00:28:52But we just couldn't find any trace of her.
00:28:55And then, Rick, he just, he just changed.
00:28:58And he started drinking and gambling.
00:29:01And he never got to forgive me.
00:29:03It's no excuse if you didn't treat him right.
00:29:05Don't worry.
00:29:07It will get better.
00:29:08And we will help you find Emma.
00:29:10Oh.
00:29:16I remember seeing a heart-shaped birthmark on my mother's thigh when I was a child.
00:29:21But this is a floral-shaped scar.
00:29:24Ugh.
00:29:25If only she was my biological mother.
00:29:28Emma, are you okay? What's wrong?
00:29:30Yeah, I'm sorry.
00:29:32I'm just very clumsy today.
00:29:35Mom, I believe your biological daughter is guided by the angels.
00:29:43Look at me, all happy and carefree.
00:29:46Well looked after by Dad.
00:29:51I think we're all going to be happy.
00:29:55Oh, darling, you're my own.
00:29:58This is just my high school reunion invite.
00:30:01They send it every year.
00:30:03I changed my address so it got sent here.
00:30:05So my little darling was the popular girl back in the day, huh?
00:30:09Definitely have to make an appearance at this one.
00:30:15Cheers.
00:30:18Jessica, did you hear?
00:30:19The old Queen Bee from our high school, Lana, is coming tonight.
00:30:23Oh, the poor girl who sells the desserts?
00:30:25Yes, but apparently her dessert stand is quite popular on social media.
00:30:29She's making quite a bit of money.
00:30:31She could be rich.
00:30:32What a joke.
00:30:37Oh my God, she's even more beautiful now than she was before.
00:30:41Cheers.
00:30:42That is the woman that's causing so many problems for my husband's company.
00:30:47Let me teach her a lesson.
00:30:56Oh no, I'm so sorry. That was totally an accident.
00:31:00That's more like it.
00:31:02This downtrodden look suits you.
00:31:04Aren't you embarrassed?
00:31:06You need to go change into some clean clothes.
00:31:10You're making a...
00:31:11This social gap between people is so obvious.
00:31:14My goodness.
00:31:15Are those Montgomery Limited Edition gems?
00:31:18They are. My husband got them for me.
00:31:20Too bad he had to miss this.
00:31:22He's hosting a dinner meeting with Mr. Montgomery,
00:31:24the head of the Montgomery group just upstairs.
00:31:26Among all of us, you really are the most successful.
00:31:35Ian, isn't your wife hosting a class reunion at your house tonight?
00:31:38Yes, Mr. Montgomery. How did you know?
00:31:40My wife's attending. Take me with you to check on her.
00:31:42Yes, sir.
00:31:57If you're going to go up against us, don't expect it to go good for you.
00:32:10Look everyone.
00:32:27Poor baby.
00:32:32So sloppy.
00:32:35Oh, look at that. The taxi driver's playing hero.
00:32:40Enough!
00:32:41Do you realize who you're talking about?
00:32:43That's the chairman of the Montgomery group.
00:32:45Chairman?
00:32:47You've really done it now. You've caused serious trouble.
00:32:51Don't worry, I'm here.
00:32:52Isn't that charming chairman of Montgomery group?
00:32:54Just like the rumor said.
00:32:55How is that possible?
00:32:57How could a little baker girl know someone like him?
00:33:03Watch your mouth!
00:33:05Is that any way to speak about our chairman's wife?
00:33:08Everybody shut up!
00:33:11Everybody shut up!
00:33:13Yes, of course, Mr. Montgomery.
00:33:15Everyone, please, disperse!
00:33:17Ian, you have five minutes to fix this mess.
00:33:20I'll make sure your bribery betrayal puts you behind bars for life!
00:33:25I'm so sorry, Mr. Montgomery. It won't happen again. I promise!
00:33:30She was the chairman's wife?
00:33:32You tried to trick me, you wretch!
00:33:34I didn't do anything.
00:33:37Get off of me, you bitch!
00:33:43Can you believe it?
00:33:50Did I just hear that right?
00:33:52Are you truly the chairman of the Montgomery group?
00:33:57Yes, indeed, my dear.
00:33:59You are the wife of the Montgomery group's chairman.
00:34:10Darling!
00:34:12I'm so sorry.
00:34:13I'm so sorry.
00:34:14I'm so sorry.
00:34:15I'm sorry.
00:34:16I'm sorry.
00:34:17I'm sorry.
00:34:18Darling!
00:34:21Wait for me. Are you still mad?
00:34:25Lana, please, just hear me out.
00:34:27Here's your jacket, Mr. Chairman.
00:34:29Lana, please.
00:34:30Just leave me alone, okay?
00:34:32Lana, I'm sorry.
00:34:34It's my fault. I never should have lied to you about who I am.
00:34:36I was scared.
00:34:38Scared.
00:34:40Scared you'd be like the others.
00:34:43Loving me for my status.
00:34:45Lana, please, just give me another chance.
00:35:01All right, Lana, you're up.
00:35:02Listen, about last night, I was just really...
00:35:04No, don't even explain it to me, okay?
00:35:06I get it. I need to get to work, so just don't be in my way, please.
00:35:09But you're the Mrs. Montgomery now.
00:35:11Do you really need to work so hard?
00:35:13Do you really need to work so hard?
00:35:16I can come with you.
00:35:18Are you not supposed to be out of town?
00:35:19At least let me drive you.
00:35:34Yeah.
00:35:36That taxi driver husband of hers hasn't shown up today.
00:35:40Everything's going according to the boss's plan.
00:35:43Let's make this quick.
00:35:44Get rid of her for good, huh?
00:35:51Hello?
00:35:53I'm sorry, honey, I'm back.
00:35:54Missy?
00:35:57Where are you going in such a rush?
00:35:59This is gonna be the night of your life, baby.
00:36:01What do you want? What do you want?
00:36:03Just a minute.
00:36:04We're still waiting on the guest of honor.
00:36:06You're gonna love him.
00:36:09You really are something special, you know that?
00:36:11Tonight, I want to see how tough you really are.
00:36:15I'll call 9-1-1.
00:36:17I will!
00:36:19Go ahead, call 9-1-1.
00:36:21Around here, 9-1-1's my personal hotline.
00:36:24You think they'll come to save you?
00:36:26I've never had a woman quite like you before.
00:36:29Just relax, baby.
00:36:30Enjoy it.
00:36:32Yeah, relax.
00:36:33Tonight, you play by our rule.
00:36:36Back off!
00:36:41Hold it.
00:36:46Hold it.
00:36:48Give her a chance.
00:36:50The fun of the hunt has just begun.
00:36:52Understood, boss. Your call.
00:37:04Dad, come back quickly.
00:37:07Something's happening at home.
00:37:08Calm down, baby. What's going on?
00:37:10Mom is in danger.
00:37:11Please come and save her.
00:37:13Get the helicopter ready, quick!
00:37:14Right away.
00:37:16Okay.
00:37:17Olivia, don't be afraid.
00:37:20You can do this. You must do this.
00:37:22Okay.
00:37:33Freeze!
00:37:34Hands up!
00:37:35Hands up!
00:37:38Or else you're dead!
00:37:42Oh, no.
00:37:43Don't.
00:37:45Mom!
00:37:49Please, just leave her alone.
00:37:51Please.
00:37:53No!
00:37:56This is interesting.
00:37:57Who is she?
00:37:58No, please, please don't shoot her.
00:37:59Please!
00:38:01Let me go.
00:38:02You don't know who my father is.
00:38:03Oh, you mean the taxi mogul?
00:38:05Well, don't worry, sweetie.
00:38:06We'll leave you five star rating.
00:38:07You're fools.
00:38:08Just wait and see.
00:38:10You'll regret everything.
00:38:12Lovely little one.
00:38:14Tell me, what's so important about your incompetent dad?
00:38:19He is Alaric Montgomery.
00:38:22The chairman of the current Montgomery family.
00:38:25Montgomery family?
00:38:27Don't come in here spewing these high titles.
00:38:30Around here, it's not about your background.
00:38:32It's about who shoots first.
00:38:36Let her go, or we'll die.
00:38:39Let her go, or we'll die.
00:38:41Just try.
00:38:43See, if you're faster, or she dies first.
00:38:46Let's make a deal.
00:38:47Let's make a deal, okay?
00:38:48You want me, right?
00:38:49Okay, cool.
00:38:50Here I am.
00:38:51No, mom.
00:38:52No.
00:38:57Your wife smells great.
00:38:59Easy.
00:39:00Bitches.
00:39:02No.
00:39:03No.
00:39:04No.
00:39:14It's over.
00:39:17Rick, you kiss your other daughter with Lana,
00:39:19and I'll spare your life today.
00:39:21Get out!
00:39:22And don't ever let me see you again.
00:39:24Dad.
00:39:25You guys okay?
00:39:26We're fine.
00:39:28It's too dangerous living here, Lana.
00:39:30Let's go home together.
00:39:32Home?
00:39:33Yes.
00:39:34Back to our real home.
00:39:51Welcome home, Mr. Montgomery, Mrs. Montgomery, and Miss Olivia.
00:39:56Welcome home, my lady.
00:39:59This feels like a dream.
00:40:04This isn't a dream.
00:40:05This is our home together.
00:40:14It's windy tonight.
00:40:15Don't catch a cold.
00:40:17The view from here is amazing.
00:40:20But it is too far from work.
00:40:22Does that mean that I can't go back to the dessert stand?
00:40:25If you still want to, we're going to have someone drive you there every day.
00:40:29Maybe not.
00:40:30The expense is too high, and, you know, it just doesn't feel as important to me anymore.
00:40:35Anything you love is always worth it.
00:40:37Actually, I'm not even sure if I should continue.
00:40:40But besides that, I don't know what else I could do.
00:40:44I know it sounds silly, but I never even finished college.
00:40:47My mom got ill, and we needed the money, so I started working in the dessert stall.
00:40:53Do you remember what you enjoyed doing back then?
00:40:55Design.
00:40:57Fashion design.
00:40:58My mom, she was the best tailor in town, and she used all her money to put me through design school.
00:41:05But after a year, she got sick, and she was bedridden.
00:41:11I see.
00:41:12Actually, I've noticed a talent in you for a long time.
00:41:15You've got a great sense of fashion coordination, and these clothes and items are all handmade by you.
00:41:20You noticed?
00:41:22I always wanted to be like my mom.
00:41:24But, I don't know, it's just, it's been so long now.
00:41:27Don't worry, Lana, you can be great at it.
00:41:30You should join our company's fashion department as a designer.
00:41:33Now?
00:41:34It's time to let this dream alive again.
00:41:36But I've never even finished design school.
00:41:38Nobody's born a designer, but you have enough talent to stand out.
00:41:41With some professional training, you can be great, you can do better than anyone.
00:41:45Do you really believe I can do it?
00:41:47Of course.
00:41:48You're the chosen lady of the Montgomery family.
00:41:58Ta-da!
00:42:02Well, this is truly a masterpiece of nature.
00:42:04Oh, you do flatter me.
00:42:06But you guys don't think this is too, you know, extravagant for my first day at work?
00:42:10Not at all.
00:42:11As a fashion designer, you should dress confidently.
00:42:15Nature is something else.
00:42:17Let's eat.
00:42:23Don't be nervous.
00:42:24You're just a new designer.
00:42:26Let's go, Tommy.
00:42:27No, Tommy, sorry.
00:42:29This car is just too flashy.
00:42:31I'm just gonna walk from here.
00:42:40Sir, if that were any other woman, she'd probably flaunt her wealth everywhere and bully others in your name.
00:42:47Miss Cooper is truly unique.
00:42:49Lana is indeed unique.
00:42:51Go greet the head of the fashion department to ensure no one accidentally offends her.
00:42:56Understood.
00:42:58What?
00:42:59Amber from the France branch is coming back today?
00:43:02Don't worry, I'll treat her well.
00:43:05We're counting on her to bring great results to this department.
00:43:13Miss Sophia, the chairman's wife will be visiting your department today.
00:43:17Please be attentive.
00:43:18No problem.
00:43:19I've heard all about it.
00:43:21Um, rest assured, I'll make all the necessary arrangements.
00:43:30My lucky stars are shining.
00:43:33This is a huge opportunity.
00:43:40No.
00:43:42The weather in France is unbearably boring.
00:43:45But at least the people there understand fashion.
00:43:48I'm just popping into a meeting.
00:43:52Move, you country bumpkin.
00:43:57Are you going to move or are you going to just stand there like a statue?
00:44:01Sorry, I'm truly sorry.
00:44:03Where was I?
00:44:04Ah, I'm back this time to take down Alaric Montgomery.
00:44:07He won't slip out of my grasp this time.
00:44:10Is she talking about my husband, Alaric?
00:44:14Miss Amber, it is such an honor to meet you.
00:44:17I've heard such good things about your France branch.
00:44:20And we really need a designer here like you.
00:44:23I suppose.
00:44:25I'll give you all the chance to prove you're worthy of my presence.
00:44:29Of course, of course.
00:44:30Well, we've set up a welcome party.
00:44:32And we have quite a few designs awaiting your approval already.
00:44:36Where are you, Miss Amber?
00:44:38In a script font.
00:44:40Is this the design department or a kindergarten?
00:44:43Who put that there?
00:44:45Was it you?
00:44:46Take it down immediately.
00:44:51Who's this?
00:44:52Is she new?
00:44:55New here?
00:44:56I'm the new designer, Lana Cooper.
00:44:59Don't stand so close. Please.
00:45:01So inspiring.
00:45:03Trying to break into the fashion industry at that age.
00:45:06I admire your guts.
00:45:08Go get us some water.
00:45:10Quick!
00:45:12Please.
00:45:18Okay.
00:45:21Whoa.
00:45:23Are you crazy?
00:45:26Oh my God.
00:45:27I am truly, truly sorry.
00:45:30The newbie is doomed.
00:45:32I heard those clothes cost over 10K.
00:45:34High-end, custom, obviously.
00:45:36She's in really big trouble now.
00:45:40How are we going to solve this issue?
00:45:43What is wrong with you?
00:45:45You can't even do a simple task?
00:45:47You need to pay Miss Amber. Right now.
00:45:50What did you say this was worth? Maybe $150,000?
00:45:54$150,000?
00:45:56This is your mess.
00:45:58You have to take responsibility.
00:46:00I can't afford that. It's too expensive.
00:46:02Can I just dry clean it for you?
00:46:04What is wrong with this company these days?
00:46:06Can just anyone walk in here and start working here now?
00:46:09Who even brought her in here?
00:46:11Somebody get her out.
00:46:13Security!
00:46:14Just one second, ma'am.
00:46:16Just take a closer look at her outfit.
00:46:18She's wearing unreleased pieces from Paris Fashion Week this year.
00:46:24What?
00:46:25Yes, these are Master Misha's newest designs.
00:46:28Worth over a million.
00:46:30Oh my God.
00:46:31Alaric's gift is just too extravagant.
00:46:34She must have some serious connections to have access to clothes like these.
00:46:38She's no ordinary person.
00:46:40I want to see what you're made of.
00:46:43You know, forget it.
00:46:45I won't argue with a newbie.
00:46:47What if I let you go?
00:46:49Maybe you could do something for me in return.
00:46:53What can I do for you?
00:47:01Remember, at Montgomery Fashion Week, we value ability over connections.
00:47:06To really reach the pinnacle, you're going to have to show us what you're capable of.
00:47:10This is the Montgomery annual most important fashion show.
00:47:17You have two days.
00:47:19Either present a design that dazzles us, and I'll let you go.
00:47:24Or, you can remove yourself from the design department.
00:47:28Your choice.
00:47:31Alright.
00:47:33Two days it is.
00:47:37Quite brave.
00:47:39The Montgomery Fashion Show is filled with experts.
00:47:43A newbie like her?
00:47:45She's destined to fail.
00:47:47This is just to teach her a little lesson.
00:47:49So that she understands that messing with me isn't just a simple mistake.
00:47:54It has deadly consequences.
00:48:08Madam?
00:48:16Do you like it?
00:48:23The scent reminds me of morning dew and sunshine.
00:48:29Then incorporate those elements into your design.
00:48:32What do you mean?
00:48:33Think about it. Why is your dessert stand always busier than the others?
00:48:36Well, I choose top quality ingredients for the taste and aroma.
00:48:42And I pay attention to the appearance.
00:48:44You know, the colors, and also layers of taste sensation.
00:48:48And the way you design the car.
00:48:50The place you picked on the beach for the scenery.
00:48:52Your unforgettable singing and warmly enthusiastic service.
00:48:58A design should be a moment that's treasured.
00:49:02A memory that's unforgettable.
00:49:07I think I know what to do now.
00:49:10Thank you, honey.
00:49:11Go for it. I believe in you.
00:49:20In conclusion, sexiness is a woman's power.
00:49:24And that's the soul of design.
00:49:27That is my design philosophy.
00:49:33Your turn.
00:49:37Amber is the top designer at Montgomery.
00:49:39Her presentation is flawless.
00:49:41If I were you, I would just give up now. Avoid embarrassment.
00:49:46Oh well. You might not be able to produce anything, right?
00:49:51No worries. Maybe you could just take a janitor job at Montgomery.
00:49:59So my creativity is inspired not only by visuals, but also by sound, smell, and touch.
00:50:06What a joke.
00:50:07How do you imbue a piece of clothing with sound, touch, and smell?
00:50:13Like you said, a female's sexiness is a form of power.
00:50:17But I believe that true sexiness comes from imagination.
00:50:22And it evokes a deeper sense of emotion through a blend of visuals and auditory and even tactile perceptions.
00:50:31By integrating advanced micro-encapsulation technology to embed into the fabric a certain sense.
00:50:38Wow, that's a really cool idea.
00:50:40Also, even light and shadow can stimulate related sensory associations.
00:50:45Therefore, a woman's sexiness is not just superficial, but a resonance from inside and out.
00:50:53A deeper connection from emotions to senses.
00:50:58Enough.
00:51:03Enough.
00:51:05This design is ridiculous. Who do you think you are?
00:51:08Miss Amber, what is exactly wrong with my design?
00:51:11What's wrong with it?
00:51:13Do you think you can clamber on stage at the Montgomery International Fashion Show with this whimsical nonsense?
00:51:21That is a battleground for global design masters, not some sandbox for an amateur like yourself to daydream in.
00:51:29This entire design is a joke.
00:51:32Design should not be confined by just visuals.
00:51:36And a woman's charm should not be limited by her appearance.
00:51:40I don't claim that my work is the best, but it does hold significance.
00:51:45And your so-called professional opinion is just another example of that limitation.
00:51:58Done.
00:51:59Let's go check on the progress of the design department.
00:52:01And will you be checking on a certain someone, sir?
00:52:05Get on to your own work, right away.
00:52:09Are you accusing me of making things deliberately difficult for you?
00:52:13Is that not the case?
00:52:15Who do you think you are to deserve so much of my effort?
00:52:19Lana, I advise you not to court trouble.
00:52:22Do you know who you're talking to?
00:52:24Amber is Chairman Alaric Montgomery's officially designated fiancƩe.
00:52:28You're a newcomer.
00:52:30Do you know who you're talking to?
00:52:32Amber is Chairman Alaric Montgomery's officially designated fiancƩe.
00:52:36You're a newcomer.
00:52:38You think you can challenge her?
00:52:40You have no idea.
00:52:42Did you just say that she is the Chairman's fiancƩe?
00:52:50Wait, what did you just say?
00:52:51Amber is the Chairman's fiancƩe?
00:52:54Yeah. Designer Amber is not only the Montgomery Group's Chairman's wife,
00:52:59she's also everyone's crush.
00:53:02You're a newcomer, sweetheart.
00:53:04You think you can offend her repeatedly?
00:53:06You must have the heart of a lion and the courage of a leopard.
00:53:11How can this be?
00:53:13I am Alaric's wife.
00:53:15For someone of such insignificant background as yourself,
00:53:18just being at this company is an honor.
00:53:22Now, since you don't seem to understand the rules,
00:53:26let's just start with the basics.
00:53:28From now on, you'll handle my coffee orders and the office cleaning,
00:53:32and maybe, if I'm in a good mood, maybe,
00:53:36I'll teach you a thing or two about life.
00:53:38It's not your place to teach anyone about life.
00:53:40Darling, you're here.
00:53:46I don't think our relationship was good enough for you to call me that.
00:53:49Sir, we didn't expect to interrupt you.
00:53:52We were just having a minor internal department adjustment.
00:53:56Telling this new employee here, you know, the company rules.
00:54:00Rules? What rules allow you to treat employees like this?
00:54:03I'd like to know exactly what she did wrong.
00:54:05Mr. Montgomery, she came in here with the most ridiculous design plan,
00:54:09trying to overthrow Montgomery's company culture.
00:54:12Brown philosophies.
00:54:14It's bullying new employees, company culture.
00:54:17Alaric, relax. Have some water.
00:54:21We were just trying to maintain the reputation of Mont...
00:54:28Of Montgomery.
00:54:29A designer like her will only drag the rest of the team down.
00:54:32Shut up, Ambo. It's not your place to decide who drags the company down.
00:54:36Alaric Montgomery.
00:54:39Alaric Montgomery, are you seriously doing this for her?
00:54:43I'm the damn daughter-in-law the Montgomery family handpicked for you.
00:54:47Ambo, the favor I owe you for saving my ass, it's paid in full.
00:54:53You have abused this chairman's fiance title for years and gotten away with whatever you want.
00:54:59Well, let me make one thing clear.
00:55:01If you try any more of your little games,
00:55:03I will personally throw your ass out of the Montgomery family.
00:55:06You think this is some playground for you to play with power?
00:55:10Montgomery is the heart and soul of this family.
00:55:12Not your personal stage.
00:55:14Bringing you back from France was to ensure that this fashion show goes smoothly.
00:55:18If another scene like this happens, no one will be able to protect you.
00:55:26And as for this controversial new design, I've reviewed it in advance.
00:55:30It's bold, innovative, aligning with the direction our brand seeks to pursue.
00:55:35And fitting perfectly with our vision and position in the industry.
00:55:39So Sophia, as the head of the design department, I hope you understand your responsibilities.
00:55:45It's your task to lead the team to fully support this new designer to complete the project and not create more trouble.
00:55:52Yes, sir. I understand.
00:55:58And you, come with me for a moment.
00:56:01Yes, sir.
00:56:09Get out!
00:56:15Are you okay? I'm so worried seeing you surrounded like that.
00:56:18Don't worry, I can handle it.
00:56:20Why can't we just tell everyone you're my wife? It could save you some unnecessary trouble.
00:56:24Because I want to stand up for myself now and prove my worth.
00:56:28What do you mean?
00:56:29When I see everyone's initial distrust turn into surprise and then recognition,
00:56:34I just, I know I've taken control of the room.
00:56:39You always do this. Make me proud and worried at the same time.
00:56:45Don't worry. The hardest part is over.
00:56:51And honestly, I couldn't have done any of this without your unwavering support.
00:56:56The next stage is mine and I promise you that our designs are going to be unmatched at the fashion show.
00:57:02I never doubted you.
00:57:05You're the ace of the Montgomery family.
00:57:08But I do have one request.
00:57:09Okay, what is it?
00:57:11At the celebration party, I want to let everyone know you're my wife.
00:57:14You're not just Lana, you're the core of Montgomery.
00:57:19Okay, deal. And you will not be disappointed.
00:57:39Mr. Alaric Montgomery, are you introducing your wife to us today?
00:57:42Yes, this is my wife, Lana Cooper Montgomery.
00:57:46She's also the creative director of tonight's fashion show.
00:57:49This year's theme is Dream of Roses, so please stay tuned.
00:57:53Are you expecting kids anytime soon?
00:57:55Hey, when's the party?
00:57:57Your house, where do you guys live?
00:57:59Come on, give me some information, please.
00:58:03No worries.
00:58:06No worries.
00:58:08We'll make sure you're out of Montgomery for good.
00:58:11No coming back.
00:58:15Hey, a problem? Tyler's dress has been completely destroyed by someone.
00:58:19Mom, what do we do? Tyler's about to go on stage, like now.
00:58:23Okay, you go check the other dresses and see if they're okay.
00:58:29Why would dad do anything at this point?
00:58:31Tyler's about to perform. She's the most important singer in the show. What do we do?
00:58:37Give me the flowers.
00:58:41Give me the flowers.
00:58:49Can we please cut the stems?
00:58:51Thank you, sweetie.
00:59:02It's time. We need to get Tyler to the stage right now.
00:59:05Okay. Olivia, can you please collect the remaining rose petals now?
00:59:09I'll do it now.
00:59:50Thank you to tonight's magical creator, Lana Cooper. Witness the birth of a miracle.
00:59:56You always knew you'd have to go cheering for me.
00:59:59Well, with your roses by my side, I can barely lose.
01:00:02Go on, mother.
01:00:04Come on.
01:00:07Yay, big mama!
01:00:09Yay, big mama!
01:00:25It's this bitch!
01:00:27She plagiarized my design!
01:00:31You've been deceived this entire time.
01:00:33By her!
01:00:39You've been deceived this entire time.
01:00:41By her!
01:00:45Twenty minutes ago, this dress was in tatters because of her.
01:00:48It was Alaric's roses that turned decay into a miracle.
01:00:58Enough, Amber!
01:01:00Did you think the surveillance footage would lie?
01:01:02Alaric, why?
01:01:04Why are you always protecting her?
01:01:06I'm the woman you loved for years.
01:01:09Why are you taking her side now?
01:01:12Because thirty years ago, it was her, Alana, that saved me.
01:01:16You've deceived me for a decade.
01:01:18No, that's impossible.
01:01:20You're mistaken.
01:01:24Baby.
01:01:28Get away!
01:01:29Leave him alone!
01:01:31I said get away!
01:01:34It's okay.
01:01:36You're gonna be okay. It's okay.
01:01:38It's okay.
01:01:41Help! Someone help!
01:01:50Thank God you're awake.
01:01:52I'm so glad I saved your life.
01:01:58Amber, don't you understand yet?
01:02:00There's never been any debt of gratitude between us.
01:02:03Did you think I couldn't see through your deception?
01:02:08I just chose not to expose it.
01:02:30I love you.
01:02:56Morning, Director. Here's your coffee.
01:02:58Thank you. That's so thoughtful of you.
01:03:01Good morning, Miss Lana.
01:03:04You bunch of sycophants.
01:03:06None of you will get away unscathed.
01:03:18Well, good morning, everyone.
01:03:20Let's get to work.
01:03:22We have a major project starting today,
01:03:24and I expect everyone to exceed their own limits.
01:03:26Let's do it.
01:03:31You know this is because of your damn mother?
01:03:33Our family's nearly bankrupt now.
01:03:35How long are you gonna do the good guy act for, huh?
01:03:37Here, you can take care of your own child.
01:03:42I'll figure something.
01:03:43Why can't you ask your mom for money?
01:03:45She's the lead designer of the Montgomery Group.
01:03:47She's getting all the Montgomery's money.
01:03:50Right.
01:03:51If you don't get money from her this time,
01:03:53you're getting a divorce and you're out of here.
01:03:56I'll do my best.
01:04:08Come in.
01:04:09Director, there's someone claiming to be a relative of yours here to see you.
01:04:13Okay. Let him in.
01:04:16Okay.
01:04:24Mom, this place is amazing.
01:04:27But I want to hear about you.
01:04:29How's everything been?
01:04:30How's the child?
01:04:31We're all right.
01:04:33The baby was born a few weeks ago.
01:04:35Very healthy.
01:04:36That's good.
01:04:37It's great to hear.
01:04:38I'm so happy for you.
01:04:39Yeah.
01:04:40But, you know, we're having some complications.
01:04:45You know, Mom, the engagement party and the Montgomery thing.
01:04:50I understand.
01:04:51What do you need help with?
01:04:52Well, you know, it's really expensive to raise a child.
01:04:58I was thinking one million should cover it for now.
01:05:03One million?
01:05:05Are you joking?
01:05:07Are you joking?
01:05:09Well, we're really desperate.
01:05:11And you're married to Montgomery now, so isn't one million just a piece of cake for you?
01:05:20Here's what I've saved over the past few months.
01:05:23Just, Ronnie, just please use it for emergencies.
01:05:25How much is on here?
01:05:27Twenty thousand.
01:05:28Are you serious?
01:05:30Twenty thousand?
01:05:33Didn't you marry a Montgomery chairman who controls the whole Montgomery group,
01:05:37and this is all you can give me?
01:05:39Ryan, Alaric's wealth is his, and what I earn is...
01:05:42Ridiculous.
01:05:43This petty cash is not enough to raise a child.
01:05:46Didn't you marry Alaric to have a good life?
01:05:49Now that you hit the jackpot, you should plan ahead and cash out as much as you can.
01:05:52Ryan, your plan is to have me beg Alaric to hand over all the Montgomery assets to you
01:05:57to save your financial problems.
01:05:59Just, what if he just once just considered me?
01:06:01Who do you think you are talking to right now?
01:06:06It's your fault that we're in this mess.
01:06:08And here you are enjoying Montgomery he has to offer.
01:06:11Dressing to the nines every day.
01:06:13Sitting there doing nothing.
01:06:15How does that actually benefit us?
01:06:17You're so heartless.
01:06:18Enough.
01:06:20Enough.
01:06:24Ryan, I finally see you clearly now.
01:06:27From the beginning.
01:06:28You never once considered me, my situation, whether or not I'm happy.
01:06:33All you just keep doing is just keep coming back asking for money, asking me just to keep bailing you out.
01:06:39You know what?
01:06:40I don't owe you a goddamn thing.
01:06:43Is this how you treat your own family?
01:06:45Can't put aside your so-called pride?
01:06:47Ryan, take the money and leave.
01:06:49I don't want to see you anymore.
01:06:54How can you be so heartless, Mom?
01:06:56Ryan, I am cutting you off.
01:07:01You bitch.
01:07:03Cindy, can you please show him out?
01:07:08Sir, please leave immediately.
01:07:10You'll pay for this, Lana.
01:07:12I curse you.
01:07:27What the hell are you doing?
01:07:29Did you get the money?
01:07:30No.
01:07:31What, you can't even handle your own mother?
01:07:33How can you be so useless?
01:07:35I'm not useless.
01:07:37Showing a true collusion, shut me down and throw me out like some heartless wench.
01:07:44It just shows that she doesn't consider me as family.
01:07:47Ryan, you have no way out.
01:07:49Remember, once you find her weakness, you can destroy her.
01:07:53Remember, once you find her weakness, you can destroy everything she has.
01:07:59You're right.
01:08:01She closed all the doors on me, leaving me only one path.
01:08:06I won't let her off so easily.
01:08:08I'll make her see that I'm actually capable of fighting back.
01:08:18Rick, I made up my mind.
01:08:20I'm going with your plan.
01:08:22I'm going to make Lana pay.
01:08:23Make her lose everything.
01:08:25You ready for this?
01:08:26I've been waiting for you to say that.
01:08:28Don't worry.
01:08:29We're not the only ones who wanted to suffer.
01:08:31There's someone else willing to drop serious cash to make sure she's in pain.
01:08:35Well, what are we waiting for?
01:08:37Let's get started.
01:08:38Now.
01:08:52Ryan.
01:08:57Ryan.
01:09:12Lana Cooper, your precious daughter is in our hands.
01:09:18Ryan, are you out of your mind?
01:09:20Why the hell are you doing this?
01:09:22Tell me, how much do you want?
01:09:26If we had cooperated earlier, we wouldn't have to go this far.
01:09:29But it's too late now.
01:09:31You think we care about a little cash?
01:09:34What we want now is for you to wish we were never born.
01:09:38Ryan, just wake up, okay?
01:09:40Just stop. Just stop going down this wrong path.
01:09:43Yo.
01:09:44Long time no see, Mrs. Montgomery.
01:09:46Oh, Rick, I knew it was you.
01:09:47What the hell do you want?
01:09:49What do I want?
01:09:51Let's think about that.
01:09:52But first, how about we put a little game time on it?
01:09:57Ten minutes, forty-one seconds and counting.
01:10:00No, Rick, just please just stop.
01:10:09Seems like your stepmom doesn't love you after all.
01:10:13What's the difference, princess?
01:10:14You're just like me.
01:10:16Another pathetic soul.
01:10:21Ten...
01:10:23Nine...
01:10:24Eight...
01:10:25Seven...
01:10:26Six...
01:10:27Five...
01:10:28Four...
01:10:29Two...
01:10:30Rick, please stop!
01:10:33Rick, please stop, okay?
01:10:34I have your money here.
01:10:35Just please just let her go.
01:10:43Boom!
01:10:45Boom!
01:10:49I had to get your attention somehow.
01:10:51It's just a little surprise.
01:10:57I have your money here.
01:10:58Okay, so please just let her go, okay?
01:11:01Had enough, okay?
01:11:02Here it is. Here it is.
01:11:04You know what? You go ahead and keep that.
01:11:06Pay for a decent funeral.
01:11:08No, no.
01:11:09Boys, let's have some fun.
01:11:11No, no, no!
01:11:13Are you insane?
01:11:14Stop it, you disabled bastard!
01:11:16Our little game has just begun.
01:11:19Why the rush to leave?
01:11:24Fine.
01:11:26You can watch
01:11:27as I strip down your stepdaughter
01:11:30bit by bit.
01:11:40Emma?
01:11:41Emma?
01:11:42How could she have the same birthmark as Emma?
01:11:47Rick, stop.
01:11:48You have no idea what you're doing.
01:11:50Rick!
01:11:51It's your daughter!
01:11:52It's Emma!
01:11:53Stop!
01:11:54Just stop touching her!
01:11:55You'll regret it!
01:11:56Please!
01:12:00No, Emma.
01:12:01No, it can't be.
01:12:04She's Emma?
01:12:05Look, look, Rick.
01:12:06Look, do you remember this birthmark?
01:12:08Emma had the exact same one when she was born.
01:12:10It was shaped like a heart.
01:12:11The last time you hit me,
01:12:12you cut me here
01:12:13and turned it into this ugly scar.
01:12:15Rick, just look!
01:12:17It is her!
01:12:18She has the exact same one!
01:12:29No!
01:12:30No!
01:12:34Emma!
01:12:37Oh my God, what have I done?
01:12:41Shut up, everyone!
01:12:42Stop acting like you care!
01:12:44Rick, this isn't the time to waver.
01:12:47Brian, please stop this.
01:12:49No, I won't stop.
01:12:51Never!
01:12:52You've never loved me!
01:12:56Brian!
01:12:57Rick!
01:12:58I know!
01:12:59Enough!
01:13:00Why are you hesitating?
01:13:01Brian, stop going down this path, okay?
01:13:03It's not too late!
01:13:04Enough!
01:13:05Put the gun down!
01:13:06No, I can't.
01:13:08I can't give up.
01:13:11No!
01:13:27Rick?
01:13:30Drop your weapon!
01:13:31I'll find her!
01:13:41No!
01:13:43No!
01:13:55No!
01:13:58At least you did the right thing, didn't you?
01:14:10I hope Brian can find his way.
01:14:13He will.
01:14:14You did everything you could, my dear.
01:14:17I...
01:14:18Oh, are you okay?
01:14:19Do you need me to take you to hospital?
01:14:22No, everything is fine.
01:14:24Mom is fine.
01:14:27But what I think is...
01:14:28You're going to be a dad.
01:14:32Really?
01:14:33Lana, you're pregnant?
01:14:37I'm so happy, this is the best news in the world!
01:14:40Thank you, Lana, you're my miracle!
01:14:43Thank God for blessing us with new life!
01:14:45And, finally, I'm going to be a big sister!
01:14:49Yes, Olivia, you're going to be an amazing big sister!
