00:00:00Sir, our stock is being shorted aggressively. We're about to hit the limit down.
00:00:09What the hell is going on here?
00:00:12Half of you came from major investment banks.
00:00:15Our stock is about to crash, and you're telling me there's nothing we can do.
00:00:20Sir, this is a coordinated attack from multiple investment funds.
00:00:24They're shorting us simultaneously. There is nothing we can do.
00:00:28Sir, what are our next steps?
00:00:35Well, looks like Shepard Group might be bankrupt by lunch time.
00:00:44Hey, this is a private meeting.
00:00:46Mr. Jason, excuse me ma'am. Could you hold on our cleaning for just a couple of minutes?
00:00:50Mr. Shepard, building a public company in just five years? That's impressive.
00:00:57But losing your cool over a little market turbulence? That seems out of character for you.
00:01:05Do I know you?
00:01:09What are you doing?
00:01:12What are you doing?
00:01:13You can't do this. You're just a cleaner.
00:01:15You can't be messing with our company funds.
00:01:18This is incredible!
00:01:20What's going on?
00:01:21The shoring is him!
00:01:23It's failing!
00:01:24The price is holding!
00:01:27Boss, our stock price is reaching today's opening value.
00:01:33We met before.
00:01:35They're still cleaning to do Mr. Shepard.
00:01:37Hold on.
00:01:38Tell me, how could I ever repay you for this?
00:01:42If the opportunity ever arises, you could give your next contract for construction to Harrison Group.
00:01:56Jason, can we have five now?
00:01:59No.
00:02:10Mr. Yates.
00:02:12What, only two bodyguards this time?
00:02:15You're not going soft on me, are you?
00:02:17No, ma'am. I just thought you might like to scream today.
00:02:21Now listen, everyone is waiting in New York for you to claim your inheritance as CEO of the Lewis Group.
00:02:26Mr. Yates, you know that my investigations here aren't finished.
00:02:30Ma'am, I still don't understand why you've kept your identity a secret and why you've married this Ben Harrison fellow.
00:02:36Look, today is Ben's birthday.
00:02:38Anything we need to discuss, we can do at some other time.
00:02:42Ma'am, it really is time for you to accept your inheritance.
00:02:46Because what I want is a simple life with Ben.
00:02:51Ma'am, at least do me a favor and let Toby walk you up to the house.
00:02:56For my sake.
00:03:07Divorce papers, sign it.
00:03:08Sign it.
00:03:17Why?
00:03:18You are not worthy of my son anymore.
00:03:20The Harrison Group is practically a local celebrity now, especially since it's landed a $100 million contract with the Shepherd Group.
00:03:28And you, you're just a cleaner.
00:03:31The truth is, Laura, I've wanted a divorce for a very long time. I need a wife who reflects my status.
00:03:38I secured that $100 million contract.
00:03:40Oh, you. A cleaning woman. Handing out million dollar deals. Don't make me laugh.
00:03:49I did. It was my present to Ben for his birthday. I was the one who got Brian Harrison to give Ben that deal.
00:03:58What are you doing here?
00:04:00Clearly, Ben has found himself a woman more suitable for the Harrison family. Amber's family is practically local royalty.
00:04:07Local royalty. A small town rich person is royalty.
00:04:11And what qualifications do you have to judge, Ms. Cleaner? Your resume boasts supermarket cashier and dinner waitress alongside janitor, doesn't it? Ben?
00:04:21What's going on? Is this why you want a divorce? Because of her?
00:04:27Because of her?
00:04:28Oh, please. I've spent years building Harrison Group. You're still a cleaner. We just grew apart, that's all.
00:04:36Grown apart? No. No, I won't sign it. I won't sign any agreement, Ben.
00:04:47I won't sign.
00:04:51Money is a motivator, isn't it? Ben.
00:04:54All right. Here. A hundred thousand dollars. Open up a small shop or something like that.
00:05:01A hundred thousand dollars. I was the one that helped you make Harrison Group what it is today.
00:05:09Do you have any idea how much money I've brought in for you?
00:05:12Don't be ridiculous. You've never done anything for Ben's success. This is our act of charity to work.
00:05:18Here. A million dollars. Take this. You just want more money, don't you?
00:05:24Just leave and never see Ben again.
00:05:27I never expected my three years of devotion to end like this since none of you respect me.
00:05:37A cleaning lady threatening us. I'm so scared.
00:05:41Just leave. You're ready to make this house stink.
00:05:52Makeup, she's gone.
00:05:54Go to written store.
00:05:55Go to written store.
00:05:58Sir.
00:06:00Laura Lewis's information.
00:06:05She's Ben Harrison's wife.
00:06:07No wonder why she wants to part with him.
00:06:09Actually sir, Ben Harrison just divorced her.
00:06:12Divorce her?
00:06:15Wait a minute.
00:06:17Don't you remember?
00:06:18She's the one who helped us with the Smith contract three years ago.
00:06:23Yeah. She's saved our hiding now.
00:06:26Remember?
00:06:28Why would Ben Harrison dump someone who just got him a hundred million dollar contract?
00:06:33Ah.
00:06:35Let's get to the bottom of this.
00:06:39Hey! What are you doing? Let go of me!
00:06:42Who attacked Amber? Apologize this instant!
00:06:44Stealing from the Harrisons.
00:06:48We gave you a generous divorce settlement.
00:06:51You refused it.
00:06:52And now you're stealing!
00:06:54She couldn't afford it.
00:06:56You're a thief!
00:07:03That's mine! Give it back!
00:07:06That's enough!
00:07:09Maura?
00:07:11I want to say thank you properly for saving Shepard Group.
00:07:14It's really no worries, Mr. Shepard, but I'm just going through a divorce.
00:07:20You see, it's...
00:07:22Who are you?
00:07:23Boris New Squeeze.
00:07:25Excuse me. Do you know who I am?
00:07:27Is this true? You hooked up with this man while you were married to my son?
00:07:31Shame on you!
00:07:32Mr. Shepard, I...
00:07:33For your information, my name is Brian Shepard.
00:07:35I'm CEO of the Shepard Group.
00:07:38Oh, please. A big shot like Brian Shepard wouldn't be caught dead with a cleaner.
00:07:42You really don't recognize him, do you, Amber?
00:07:45That's really interesting considering I thought you were the one that secured that contract for Ben.
00:07:51That's ridiculous! He doesn't look like that!
00:07:54My ring!
00:07:55Jason, give it back to Ms. Lewis.
00:07:57Oh, hey, what are you doing?
00:08:01Laura, let's get you out of here.
00:08:03Now.
00:08:04Hold on a minute, Laura.
00:08:05Who the heck is this matter? Have you been sneaking around?
00:08:09It's alright, ma'am. This is none of your business.
00:08:12All rabbed dead bodies.
00:08:14You're not going anywhere until I tell you what's going on.
00:08:17We are the Harrisons. You can't just waltz in here and take her.
00:08:20Harrison, compared to the Shepard Group, you're nobody.
00:08:23I'll go back.
00:08:24What? Are you saying that is Brian Shepard?
00:08:27That's a lie!
00:08:28Don't you dare walk away from me, Laura!
00:08:30You come back here and explain yourself!
00:08:32Don't you take another step towards my son, Laura!
00:08:37Laura, does Ben even know you were the one who secured the 100 million deal?
00:08:43Let's just say that Ben underestimated me.
00:08:47I don't feel good about going through the signing event.
00:08:49After how they treated you, maybe we should cancel it?
00:08:53No!
00:08:54Um...
00:08:56No, the event will proceed.
00:08:59Besides, I'll be there.
00:09:04There's a lot that I don't know about you, Laura.
00:09:07Who are you, truly?
00:09:09You'll find out.
00:09:11Mr. Shepard.
00:09:12Mr. Shepard.
00:09:13Um, can you pull up over here, please?
00:09:18Mr. Yates, I want you to call all of the Lewis Group's business partners and we're gonna have a meeting.
00:09:27An investment meeting, one week from today.
00:09:31Make sure everyone is there.
00:09:36Because after that meeting, I'm gonna reclaim my place as the CEO of Lewis Group.
00:09:42Oh, excellent, Ms. Lewis.
00:09:44I'll start making arrangements tomorrow.
00:09:47Ben Harrison.
00:09:50You're gonna know exactly what it feels like to lose everything.
00:09:54After this ceremony, the Harrison family will finally be considered Maplewood City royalty.
00:10:05Only after then, my darling, we can get married.
00:10:08Laura, what are you doing here?
00:10:11Security!
00:10:13Get that woman out of here!
00:10:14We don't need cleaners at this event!
00:10:16Why wouldn't I be here?
00:10:18This is a business event, after all.
00:10:21Business?
00:10:22No business if I hit you on the head.
00:10:24A fancy dress doesn't make you high society, honey.
00:10:27Just get out!
00:10:29Don't tell me you've come looking for another rich man to play mistress for.
00:10:32You should've taken my $100,000 offer.
00:10:34Oh, Ben.
00:10:35Do you really think that you can sign this contract without me?
00:10:38Laura, this is really important for me.
00:10:41Do not ruin this, okay?
00:10:43You don't belong here.
00:10:45Just get out!
00:10:46That's what you get.
00:10:56This contract is mine.
00:11:00To give or take away as I see fit.
00:11:03Don't be ridiculous!
00:11:04This is insane!
00:11:06Who do you think you are?
00:11:07Yeah, put that down.
00:11:08You have no idea what you're doing.
00:11:10Security!
00:11:11She's lost a mind!
00:11:12This is a disaster!
00:11:14Ben.
00:11:16This contract was supposed to be my birthday present to you, but since you clearly don't deserve it...
00:11:21You really think ripping up that contract is going to help?
00:11:23You're just kidding.
00:11:24You don't deserve it.
00:11:25You don't deserve it.
00:11:26You don't deserve it.
00:11:48You really think ripping up that contract is going to help?
00:11:50You're so silly, Laura.
00:11:52Oh, please, honey.
00:11:53You couldn't explain business to a cleaning lady.
00:11:56Security!
00:11:57Get this woman out of here before she makes another mess.
00:12:00I was the one that started this deal with the Shepherds.
00:12:03And after careful consideration, I don't think the Harrison family is worthy of working with the Shepherds.
00:12:11You really think that the Shepard group and I could be torn up by something that you've done?
00:12:16You have no authority here.
00:12:18Of course she has the authority.
00:12:20That's the man that Laura went with the other day. What is he doing here?
00:12:29Mr. Shepard? How does he know her?
00:12:31Is that really Brian Shepard?
00:12:34Laura, are you alright?
00:12:37Mr. Shepard, I can assure you, I don't even know this woman. There must be some sort of misunderstanding.
00:12:42There's no misunderstanding here, Mr. Harrison. This contract with Shepard group is officially terminated. Effective immediately.
00:12:51Wait a minute. This contract, I thought you said you got it.
00:12:56It's her. She ruined the contract. You are his mistress, aren't you?
00:13:00An affair? She had an affair with that man behind my son's back?
00:13:06Mom, please, it's okay. This man is-
00:13:08Don't touch me! That woman destroyed your career in front of everyone, has an affair and you just stand there?
00:13:15You're a disgrace. An adulterer. You deserve to be around-
00:13:18Shut up!
00:13:22Mr. Shepard, I apologize for this whole mess, but I can assure you, this woman has tricked you.
00:13:28Tricked? Why don't you answer a question yourself then?
00:13:34What was my name before we got married?
00:13:37Laura Lewis, right? Lewis Group? The Financial Giants?
00:13:43There's no way a Lewis is connected to this.
00:13:47That's crazy. There's no way you're related to the Lewis family name. That's absurd.
00:13:53It's- it's- it's absurd! A high society heirs wouldn't waste their time in Maplewood!
00:14:01Yeah, yeah, it's a lie. It's a lie. This woman was a waitress when I met her.
00:14:04In fact, I saved her from a robbery three years ago.
00:14:08She's nothing special. She only married me out of gratitude.
00:14:12I was just a waitress. How convenient for your story, Ben.
00:14:17First time I met her, she was indeed a waitress at the diner.
00:14:21Okay, listen up, everybody. When I met her, I'd only just started my business.
00:14:26Now look at me. I'm signing multi-million dollar contracts.
00:14:29And look at her. Still just a clear.
00:14:31Mr. Shepherd, that woman is my son's ex-wife. She's doing all this out of spite.
00:14:38She's lying, Mr. Shepherd. She's just a cleaning lady for your business, isn't she?
00:14:43Let's make something clear. I was the one behind Harrison Group's success.
00:14:50I used my resources to help my ex-husband, but all he saw me as was the maid.
00:14:58Don't lie. You were never good enough for Ben when you married him. Oops.
00:15:03That roof was built with lies. Kathy, you never respected me.
00:15:09And Ben? Dumping me the second you thought you were successful on your own.
00:15:14And the cheating. I think you're blaming the wrong person.
00:15:18You were not good enough for Ben then, and you're certainly not good enough for him now.
00:15:24If you'd prefer to believe a liar's story, then the truth, Kathy.
00:15:30Consider this my resignation from the Harrisons. From everything.
00:15:35Wait, wait, wait, wait. Laura, you think you can just walk in here and, you know, ruin everything?
00:15:43And then just walk out like nothing happened?
00:15:45I don't think so. You're a cleaner. You're a cleaner that cleans toilets.
00:15:50Nobody cares about you.
00:15:52Cleaning toilets or not, at least I have my self-respect.
00:15:56I don't need a fancy title or a rich husband to feel important.
00:16:05I think there's been some sort of misunderstanding. I think all jobs are important. Right, Mom?
00:16:10Ben, what are you doing?
00:16:12But I don't think that a janitor should have some sort of influence over a deal as big as this.
00:16:17A janitor.
00:16:19Well, why don't we ask Miss Smith exactly how she landed that collaboration with Shepard?
00:16:27You did claim to have been the one that secured the deal, weren't you, Miss Smith?
00:16:32Mr. Shepard, it's all a lie. This woman, Laura, she's just a gold digger trying to trick you.
00:16:40I... but, well...
00:16:42A lie, you say? Miss Smith, I believe you mentioned securing this contract for Harrison Group.
00:16:48But I don't recognize you.
00:16:50Is this true, Miss Smith?
00:16:53Miss Lewis has helped me on several occasions. This contract was my way of showing my appreciation.
00:17:00But the contract... I mean, Laura tore it up. So can't we just print another one and get this signing ceremony underway?
00:17:09Reprint it, Mr. Harrison. Perhaps you haven't been paying attention without Miss Lewis involved.
00:17:14I wouldn't even consider partnering with your company.
00:17:22Today, I want to make it clear.
00:17:25Shepard Group has no plans to partner with Harrison Group in the future.
00:17:29Ms. Smith, you lied to us. You destroyed everything.
00:17:36What? No, it's a misunderstanding. I can explain.
00:17:41Lewis? Lewis Family Group? This can't be.
00:17:45Believe what you want, Ben.
00:17:47Lewis Group will be holding a massive investment meeting later this week.
00:17:51Three of our Vice-Presidents will be here in Maplewood.
00:17:57And I'm sure you can ask them if you still have any doubts about who I am.
00:18:03Everyone, listen to me. Shepard Group will not be partnering with Harrison.
00:18:09A man who can keep his vows to his wife cannot be trusted to keep his word on a contract.
00:18:17The charade is over, Mr. Harrison. Everyone here deserves to see the truth.
00:18:24Ms. Lewis, shall we take this conversation elsewhere?
00:18:34Help!
00:18:35Mom!
00:18:36Someone get a doctor!
00:18:38Mom!
00:18:39It seems your night has taken quite the turn, Mr. Shepard.
00:18:44Indeed.
00:18:46Perhaps it's best to leave them to it.
00:18:59What? What now?
00:19:02Mom, this is not all on me.
00:19:04Not on you.
00:19:06I was trying to help.
00:19:08She cheated on you with Shepard.
00:19:10Flaunted their affair.
00:19:12Exactly.
00:19:13And those dresses?
00:19:15Who could afford those on a janitor's salary?
00:19:17Ms. Smith.
00:19:19How could you do this?
00:19:20We trusted you completely.
00:19:22No, no.
00:19:24I got Ben the deal.
00:19:26I had no idea Shepard would fall for Bora.
00:19:29She's a liar!
00:19:30Oh, stop it, Amber.
00:19:31You lied to us just as much as she did.
00:19:34Lied?
00:19:36You're on my side!
00:19:38And anyways, I have a plan.
00:19:40The Shepards are no one special.
00:19:42We can expose Laura in all her lies.
00:19:45Go national.
00:19:46We can make ourselves a household name.
00:19:49Now, if you'll excuse me, I have a very important phone call to you.
00:19:53Thank you so much for tonight, Mr. Shepard.
00:19:54Thank you as well for standing up for me personally.
00:19:55It's alright, Laura.
00:19:56You deserve the credit for all your hard work.
00:19:57Can I ask you something?
00:19:58Do you have any place to stay tonight?
00:19:59Maybe a hotel?
00:20:00Don't...
00:20:01Don't worry about me, Mr. Shepard.
00:20:02I'll be fine.
00:20:03Um...
00:20:04Excuse me, you can just drop me off.
00:20:05Actually, Laura...
00:20:06Actually, Laura...
00:20:07There is something else.
00:20:08Would you consider to go out for dinner sometime?
00:20:09Just casually, of course.
00:20:10Mr. Shepard, are you asking me out?
00:20:12Please, call me Brian.
00:20:14And yes.
00:20:15Technically, I'm not sure if I'm sorry for all your hard work.
00:20:17I'm sorry for all your hard work.
00:20:18Can I ask you something?
00:20:19Do you have any place to stay tonight?
00:20:20Maybe a hotel?
00:20:21Don't...
00:20:22Don't worry about me, Mr. Shepard.
00:20:23I'll be fine.
00:20:24Excuse me, you can just drop me off.
00:20:25Actually, Laura...
00:20:26Actually, Laura...
00:20:27There is something else.
00:20:28Would you consider to go out for dinner sometime?
00:20:30Just casually, of course.
00:20:31Mr. Shepard, are you asking me out?
00:20:33Please, call me Brian.
00:20:35And yes.
00:20:36Technically, you're single now.
00:20:39Yes.
00:20:40That may be true, but...
00:20:42Going out with a newly divorced ex-cleaner isn't exactly...
00:20:47Proper.
00:20:50Proper?
00:20:52Laura...
00:20:53I don't give a damn about appearances.
00:20:56Tonight, I saw your intelligence and your strength.
00:21:00Those are qualities I truly admire.
00:21:04So what do you say?
00:21:05Dinner?
00:21:08Just two people getting to know each other.
00:21:14I'm sorry, Mr. Shepard.
00:21:15I actually have another appointment tonight.
00:21:17So I...
00:21:19Wait, Laura...
00:21:20Just here is fine.
00:21:24Laura?
00:21:25Laura!
00:21:26Who is it?
00:21:27Laura, wait!
00:21:28Jason, find out who owns that car.
00:21:29And do it fast.
00:21:30Who is it?
00:21:31Who is it?
00:21:32Laura, wait!
00:21:33Jason, find out who owns that car.
00:21:36And do it fast.
00:21:37Ian Lewis?
00:21:38Who is this?
00:21:39It's Amber Smith.
00:21:40Mr. Lewis?
00:21:41I'm sorry for the late call, but I believe I have some urgent information about your family.
00:21:43I don't know who you are, Ms. Smith.
00:21:44How did you get this number?
00:21:45Don't worry about that right now.
00:21:46I believe I know someone impersonating Laura Lewis.
00:21:48Someone I know very well.
00:21:49Impersonating my niece?
00:21:50And where is this fake Laura?
00:21:51Right here in Maplewood.
00:21:52And let me tell you, she's the only one.
00:21:53It's Amber Smith.
00:21:54It's Amber Smith.
00:21:55It's Amber Smith.
00:21:56Mr. Lewis?
00:21:57I'm sorry for the late call, but I believe I have some urgent information about your family.
00:21:58I don't know who you are, Ms. Smith.
00:21:59How did you get this number?
00:22:00Don't worry about that right now.
00:22:02I believe I know someone impersonating Laura Lewis.
00:22:05Someone I know very well.
00:22:07Impersonating my niece?
00:22:10And where is this fake Laura?
00:22:14Right here in Maplewood.
00:22:16And let me tell you, she's causing quite a scene.
00:22:20Well, what is she doing exactly?
00:22:24And more to the point, what do you want from me?
00:22:28In the next few days, the Lewis Group will hold an investment meeting, right?
00:22:33I want to meet with the Vice Presidents.
00:22:36All will be revealed then.
00:22:38Very well.
00:22:39I'll have my secretary arrange a meeting.
00:22:42But be warned, if this is a waste of my time, I-
00:22:45It won't be.
00:22:46Trust me, Mr. Lewis.
00:22:48Thank you, Mr.
00:22:55That little rascal Laura.
00:22:57I wonder what she's up to now.
00:23:00That car belongs to Mr. Yeats, the Lewis family butler.
00:23:09Oh.
00:23:10The Lewis family?
00:23:12That's interesting.
00:23:14Could you be connected to them somehow?
00:23:17I'm not sure.
00:23:19Brian!
00:23:20There you are.
00:23:21I've missed you.
00:23:22Chloe.
00:23:23What are you up to?
00:23:24Chloe.
00:23:25What are you doing here?
00:23:26What do you mean?
00:23:27Can't I visit the man I love?
00:23:28We ended things for a reason.
00:23:29It was just one teensy mistake.
00:23:30I was a little bit tipsy.
00:23:31Doesn't everyone deserve a second chance?
00:23:32Teensy mistake you said?
00:23:33You cheated on me.
00:23:34Is this your new fling?
00:23:35Ex-divorcey.
00:23:36Used a clean floor.
00:23:37It's quite the catch, you say.
00:23:39Look, my relationship with her is none of your business.
00:23:41And don't you dare talk about her life.
00:23:42I was just a little bit tipsy.
00:23:43I was just a little bit tipsy.
00:23:44I was just a little bit tipsy.
00:23:45Doesn't everyone deserve a second chance?
00:23:46Teensy mistake you said?
00:23:47You cheated on me.
00:23:48Is this your new fling?
00:23:49Ex-divorcey.
00:23:50Used a clean floor.
00:23:51It's quite the catch, you say.
00:23:52Look, my relationship with her is none of your business.
00:23:55And don't you dare talk about her like that.
00:24:05Please.
00:24:06An ex-cleaner turned social climber latching onto a wealthy businessman.
00:24:10It's a classic story.
00:24:12That's enough.
00:24:13I'll get the hell out of my office.
00:24:15You want to be careful, Brian.
00:24:17Duke Industries still holds a lot of weight in Maplewood.
00:24:20If you want Shepherd Group to stay afloat,
00:24:23you ought to be more careful.
00:24:29Seems like you've got more on your plate than Laura's secrets now.
00:24:38This is it.
00:24:39The Lewis Group Vice Presidents are on the top floor.
00:24:41Once I'm done speaking with them,
00:24:43I'll have Ben's company rolling in business investments.
00:24:46I'll go speak with them first and then I'll introduce you.
00:24:51Well, well, well.
00:24:52Look who it is.
00:24:54What a surprise.
00:24:55Did Brian teach you already?
00:24:57That's none of your business.
00:25:00Now move aside, please.
00:25:01Laura?
00:25:02Just what do you think you're doing, you street rat?
00:25:05You really think you can just ruin my events again?
00:25:07Haven't you ruined my life enough?
00:25:09Don't you have any shame?
00:25:10If you'll excuse me, I have an important meeting to get to.
00:25:14Oh, the nerve.
00:25:15After everything you've done, you think you can just waltz in here and manipulate them too?
00:25:20Seriously?
00:25:22I think you need to reconsider exactly who's manipulating who here.
00:25:26Oh, that's gold.
00:25:28You really think that they're gonna let you in, Laura?
00:25:30Please.
00:25:31You're no one compared to me.
00:25:33You don't deserve to be here.
00:25:35The only ones who don't belong here are you three.
00:25:40And you, idiot.
00:25:42Believing every lie that she tells you.
00:25:43Wake.
00:25:44Up.
00:25:45Ben.
00:25:46Oh, Laura!
00:25:47Laura, come on.
00:25:48Why do you always pull this on me?
00:25:50I mean, seriously, can't you just let me enjoy one of my events for once?
00:25:54I know what this is.
00:25:56So stupid.
00:25:57Oh, shut your trap.
00:26:00Amber spoke directly with the CEO.
00:26:02He invited her to meet with the VPs before the main meeting.
00:26:05Yeah.
00:26:06Amber got me a partnership with the Lewis Group.
00:26:09And unlike some people, I have a real invitation.
00:26:12Well, before you all start celebrating, why don't you take a look at this.
00:26:23Oh, that's rich.
00:26:24You may have Brian Shepard fooled, but you can't fool me.
00:26:27I spoke to Ian Lewis himself, CEO of Lewis Group.
00:26:31Speaking of Brian, where is he right now?
00:26:34You mean my uncle?
00:26:37Ian, don't be ridiculous.
00:26:40Ian Lewis personally gave me this invitation himself.
00:26:44And besides, this looks fake.
00:26:47She's a liar.
00:26:49This is a personal invitation from Mr. Yates himself.
00:26:54It grants me access to the VIP elevator, which leads straight to the vice presidential suite.
00:26:59She's lying.
00:27:00They don't have a VIP elevator in this hotel.
00:27:07Is there a special elevator for VIPs in this hotel?
00:27:11Not that I know of.
00:27:13See? She's lying.
00:27:15There you have it, Laura.
00:27:16Even the hotel staff can spot a fake.
00:27:18Go on, get lost before things get worse.
00:27:21Here, take this one.
00:27:25Lead me to the vice presidents.
00:27:27You have no idea what you just did.
00:27:32There will be consequences.
00:27:36Besides, if you have this relationship with Ian Lewis that you claim to have,
00:27:41why don't you just ask him to get the two of them an invitation?
00:27:47Security! Security!
00:27:48We need this woman removed immediately.
00:27:49She is harassing me.
00:27:50We're done with your games, Laura.
00:27:52You're just a fraud.
00:27:53Man, place removed.
00:27:54What?
00:27:55Hold on!
00:27:56Brian Shepard?
00:28:01You think money buys you the right to walk all over people?
00:28:04Well, it doesn't.
00:28:05Yeah.
00:28:06Wasn't enough to kick us out of Maplewood, was it, huh?
00:28:08What other plans do you have to destroy this town?
00:28:11Get you out?
00:28:12After what you did to Laura, you had it coming.
00:28:15Don't play dumb.
00:28:16We know exactly what's been happening here.
00:28:18How long has this little affair been going on?
00:28:21You've been sleeping with her since she was married to my son.
00:28:24Hold on a second.
00:28:25An affair?
00:28:27You think Laura and I?
00:28:29You people are unbelievable.
00:28:34Mr. Carter.
00:28:35Get down here ASAP.
00:28:36We have a situation.
00:28:38What, you think you can just boss the manager around now?
00:28:40Is that it?
00:28:41We'll stick around and watch you crash and burn.
00:28:44Miss Lewis, apologies for the delay.
00:28:46How can I help you this evening?
00:28:48Thank you, Mr. Carter, for getting down here so quickly.
00:28:51It seems there's a misunderstanding.
00:28:53These people don't think that I belong here.
00:28:57Well, Mr. Carter, I can assure you, this woman is a cleaner.
00:29:00A cleaner?
00:29:01Nonsense.
00:29:02I personally greeted Miss Lewis upon her arrival in Maplewood three years ago.
00:29:06Exactly.
00:29:08Lewis Group, my company, has some major investments planned here in Maplewood.
00:29:15I was just here investigating potential business opportunities.
00:29:19No, this woman doesn't know the difference between business and a hole in the ground.
00:29:24She's been this way since my son divorced her. She's insane.
00:29:26Actually, I met Laura three years ago at the coffee shop. She helped secure a profitable investment for Shepard Group.
00:29:35No, it's a lie. Mr. Shepard, she's tricking you too.
00:29:39You know, it's exhausting trying to argue with people who forget who helped them.
00:29:49Mr. Carter, would you mind showing me to the VIP elevator?
00:29:52Wait, is that why you're covering for her? Because of the affair? Because she slept with you?
00:29:57Excuse me?
00:29:58Of course.
00:29:59And how dare you speak to Miss Lewis that way?
00:30:01Enough of this. Shepard.
00:30:02That's enough.
00:30:03Have you embarrassed yourself enough?
00:30:05This is Lewis Group property.
00:30:07Behave or I'll call security.
00:30:09But she doesn't even have a VIP entrance access.
00:30:12She shouldn't be here.
00:30:14Since you're having trouble understanding them, let me make it clear.
00:30:19This hotel is owned by the Lewis family.
00:30:22It's mine.
00:30:24To come or go as I please.
00:30:29Thank you for stepping in, Ryan.
00:30:32I owe you one.
00:30:35We'll talk about this later.
00:30:37Well, it seems that divorcing a powerful woman wasn't the best decision, Mr. Harris.
00:30:50Come in!
00:30:52Excuse me, Vice Presidents.
00:30:54I'm Amber Smith, General Manager of the Lewis Group Maplewood Branch.
00:30:58I believe Ian Lewis told you about our meeting today?
00:31:01Maplewood Branch.
00:31:03Our records don't show any Maplewood Branch, Ms. Smith.
00:31:08Are you sure you haven't gotten something mixed up?
00:31:11Ian Lew- Mr. Lewis reassured me that today we would discuss, well, expansion plans.
00:31:20Expansion plans.
00:31:21Oh!
00:31:22Expansion plans?
00:31:23Ms. Smith?
00:31:24A decision like that wouldn't be taken without board approval.
00:31:28And frankly, we haven't heard anything about Maplewood Branch.
00:31:33But Ian Lewis assured me that-
00:31:36Ms. Smith, we have a very important guest arriving soon.
00:31:39Perhaps you'd like to schedule a follow-up meeting with one of our staff.
00:31:42Maybe I can stay for this guest and offer some local-
00:31:45Ms. Smith!
00:31:46We'd like you to leave.
00:31:47If you don't, we'll call security.
00:31:49Hey.
00:31:50Stop there.
00:31:51These elevators are VIP only.
00:31:52Back, please.
00:31:53Of course.
00:31:54My apologies.
00:31:55Oh.
00:31:56Laura?
00:31:57Vice-presidents!
00:31:58It is so good to see all of you again.
00:32:02Ms. Lewis!
00:32:03It's been too long.
00:32:04Your return is a lifesaver, Ms. Lewis.
00:32:08The Lewis Group has floundered under your eyes.
00:32:10It is so great to see you again again.
00:32:13Ms. Lewis.
00:32:14It has been too long.
00:32:16Your return is a lifesaver, Ms. Lewis.
00:32:19The Lewis Group has floundered under your eyes.
00:32:22The Lewis group has floundered under your uncle's, shall we say, unconventional leadership.
00:32:28The board are begging you to come back, Miss Lewis.
00:32:32Well, please sit. Yes, well, it is time for me to get my career back on track.
00:32:39We've got a meeting planned, a big one, in just a few days.
00:32:44Local powerhouses and smaller players, too. They'll all be there in one spot.
00:32:50Miss Lewis, we met with an Amber Smith.
00:32:55She claimed your uncle appointed her general manager of a Maplewood branch for the Lewis group.
00:33:02She said that, did she? Well, Miss Smith is a liar. There is no Maplewood branch, at least not yet.
00:33:09She lied so blatantly. It's unbelievable.
00:33:12Bob, don't worry. I found a much more suitable partner.
00:33:17Shepard Group. Shepard Group? Their rise to a public company has been impressive.
00:33:24Do you have anything to do with that?
00:33:27So, what happens now with this Amber Smith?
00:33:31Oh, don't worry about Amber. I've got plans for her.
00:33:37Miss Lewis, consider this your official invitation to the legend, to the legend, from us.
00:33:50Cheers. Cheers.
00:33:52No, I'm not leaving. What are you talking about? No, come on.
00:34:04Wait! I'm Amber Smith. I'm the Lewis group manager of Maplewood branch. What are you doing? These are my guests.
00:34:09Yeah, that's right. Tell them who we are.
00:34:11Yes, we were waiting for Miss Smith.
00:34:13Lewis group, Maplewood branch. No such thing, ma'am. And frankly, I'm not interested in your act.
00:34:20Of course. Laura! She's probably sleeping with the manager as well.
00:34:25That's how she gets away with everything.
00:34:27You underestimate her, Cathy. She's probably sleeping with all three vice presidents.
00:34:32No way a girl like her could get into a hotel like this.
00:34:35Careful with your words. Both of you. Acquisitions like that can get you in serious trouble.
00:34:44Look who can't even get into a meeting.
00:34:46Whilst I've secured three with all the vice presidents.
00:34:49And let's not forget the mystery guests that they're bringing to Maplewood.
00:34:52Looks like she used you and tossed you aside.
00:34:55Used me? Unlike some people, I don't mind being helpful.
00:35:00You're so stupid. She threw you away like yesterday's trash.
00:35:04Don't worry, Brian. You deserve better.
00:35:07And let's not forget, I'm the new Maplewood branch manager of Lewis Group.
00:35:11Appointed by the CEO of Lewis Group themselves, Ian Lewis.
00:35:16New branch manager, huh? Interesting.
00:35:20Laura Lewis? What are you doing here? Get out of here!
00:35:23You claim to be the mystery guest.
00:35:26Don't play games, Laura. I was formally invited by Lewis Group themselves to the investment meeting.
00:35:32Only the top companies get those. Looks like you're all out of luck.
00:35:37Is that so?
00:35:39Well then, there seems to be a misunderstanding.
00:35:43You see, I'm not sure if you know Miss Smith, but Lewis Group is my company.
00:35:49And I decide who goes to the meetings.
00:35:51Escort them out. Their visit is over.
00:35:55Oh, come on. This way, please.
00:36:00I'm not leaving.
00:36:02Move. We're not leaving again. Move.
00:36:04Oh, no, no, no. We're not going now.
00:36:06Okay, bye, bye, bye.
00:36:07This isn't over, Laura. You'll see.
00:36:10Thanks for waiting, bud.
00:36:15Laura, I'm glad you're okay.
00:36:19And thank you for defending me. I really appreciate it.
00:36:27Um, are you coming to the meeting?
00:36:31Yes, but it's going to be tricky.
00:36:37Why? I'm sure that Shepard Group got an invitation.
00:36:43Yes, Laura. There's something you should know.
00:36:49Is this about Ben? Because I can assure you that he won't cause any problems.
00:36:56He won't even get past security.
00:36:59Laura, it's not Ben.
00:37:02It's someone else.
00:37:05Someone's causing problems for Shepard Group?
00:37:10Yes.
00:37:12Her name is Chloe Duke.
00:37:15She is daughter of the Duke family.
00:37:19She's my ex-fiancee.
00:37:21And, uh, let's say things didn't end so well between us.
00:37:27And, let's just say we didn't end things so well.
00:37:34And for some reason, she's having a hard time moving on.
00:37:39And you think that she's going to cause problems at the meeting for...
00:37:50Out of jealousy?
00:37:53There's a possibility. She's kind of jealous.
00:37:57Well, all the more reason for you to be there.
00:38:02Besides, I'll be there too.
00:38:05Laura, would you consider being my guest at the meeting?
00:38:14What?
00:38:16Are you worried that this Chloe is going to cause problems for me too?
00:38:19Maybe a little.
00:38:21But mostly, I want to show them your team.
00:38:25Well, it's a very kind offer, Mr. Shepard. Thank you.
00:38:30Laura.
00:38:31I don't care about your best.
00:38:37I just want to be by your side.
00:38:40I think I'm falling for you.
00:38:45Ryan...
00:38:46I appreciate your honesty.
00:38:55And right now, I'm just not...
00:38:58I just don't really have romance on my mind right now.
00:39:03Just with everything going on...
00:39:05And going on...
00:39:06I just want to be upfront.
00:39:10And if Gletra is anything, you won't face her alone.
00:39:15There's just one thing I do need.
00:39:21What is it?
00:39:23A formal dress.
00:39:25A formal dress.
00:39:38Ah, security!
00:39:40She doesn't belong here.
00:39:41This is a private store.
00:39:43Excuse me.
00:39:45We need some assistance.
00:39:46Time for a very particular dress.
00:39:51Wow.
00:39:52It's beautiful.
00:39:54It is.
00:39:55I'll try this one on.
00:39:57Don't bother with her.
00:39:58She can't afford anything here.
00:40:00She's just a cleaner.
00:40:01She doesn't deserve to shop here.
00:40:02She has no money.
00:40:06Yeah, exactly.
00:40:07I mean, what are you doing here?
00:40:08Can't you just leave me alone?
00:40:10I wouldn't bat an eyelash if you just disappeared.
00:40:12I'm here for retail therapy.
00:40:15Oh, please.
00:40:17This store's for the A-list only.
00:40:19Not some cheapskate like you.
00:40:21Says the woman who barged into my marriage.
00:40:24Hey, show some respect.
00:40:26Typical Laura.
00:40:27Just thinks she can buy anything she wants with someone else's money.
00:40:31I would have asked you, but without me, I'm sure you're already broke.
00:40:35Oh, please. Come on, we'll take the dress.
00:40:37Sir, this particular dress is not for sale.
00:40:40Uh, what do you mean you don't sell it?
00:40:42I want it.
00:40:44Name your price.
00:40:45It's not about the price, ma'am.
00:40:47This one was custom made for Miss Lewis, the Lewis Group heiress.
00:40:50The entire brand belongs to her.
00:40:52This beautiful dress is for display purposes only.
00:40:57It wouldn't suit you anyway, Amber.
00:40:59What are you talking about?
00:41:00Of course it would suit her.
00:41:01It would fit her just fine.
00:41:03And if it wouldn't fit me, it certainly wouldn't fit your chunky self either.
00:41:06Well, buying the whole store, allow me to purchase this dress.
00:41:15Oh please, don't you know that this store belongs to Lewis Group?
00:41:18We wouldn't sell it to someone like you.
00:41:20Amber, you're not even a branch manager yet.
00:41:23You don't get to speak on behalf of Lewis Group.
00:41:26Could you please tell me more about this dress?
00:41:28Of course.
00:41:29Uh, it was custom made for Laura Lewis, heiress to the Lewis Group Fortune.
00:41:35Hand stitched in Italy, naturally.
00:41:37And apparently there are many more like it this year.
00:41:41High-end stores and museums around the world from her private collection.
00:41:46Laura, do you like this dress?
00:41:49Of course.
00:41:50It's custom made for me.
00:41:52I'm just here to take what's already mine.
00:41:55Oh, you can't be serious.
00:41:56There must be millions of Laura Lewis's out there in the world.
00:42:00Fine, fine.
00:42:02If it's not for sale, can't I at least try it on?
00:42:05It would look incredible on me.
00:42:07Miss, this dress is very delicate.
00:42:10If I may be frank, I don't think this would fit you properly.
00:42:14Are you calling me fat?
00:42:15Actually, on a second thought.
00:42:18Why don't we just buy the whole brand?
00:42:21How's that sound?
00:42:22Sir, are you serious?
00:42:23You would just buy the entire brand for one dress?
00:42:27This brand is worth at least 50 million dollars.
00:42:30And to buy it for a waitress?
00:42:33Are you out of your mind?
00:42:34Yes.
00:42:35You see, even if you had the money, they wouldn't sell it to you.
00:42:38Just one second.
00:42:42Yes, this is Brian Shepherd.
00:42:44CEO of Shepherd Group.
00:42:45I'd like to speak with your head of acquisitions.
00:42:48I'm interested in purchasing your high fashion brand.
00:42:54What?
00:42:57Sorry, sir.
00:42:58That brand is not for sale.
00:43:01You see?
00:43:02If we can't have it, neither can you.
00:43:07Mr. Yates.
00:43:08Yes, this is Laura Lewis.
00:43:10I'm calling to discuss the sale of our high-end clothing brand, too.
00:43:15To Shepherd Group.
00:43:17Oh, come on.
00:43:19Calling the Lewis family butler won't get you anywhere, sweetie.
00:43:22Exactly.
00:43:23Come on, this is pathetic.
00:43:24You really think this is gonna work?
00:43:25It's sad.
00:43:26Excellent.
00:43:28Thank you, Mr. Yates.
00:43:29That's all.
00:43:30Yes.
00:43:31What?
00:43:32Are you willing to sell me the brand?
00:43:33Awesome.
00:43:36Hello?
00:43:37Yes.
00:43:38Wow.
00:43:39Yes, of course.
00:43:40Absolutely.
00:43:43This store, along with the entire brand, has been sold to Mr. Shepherd.
00:43:52Hello?
00:43:53Yes.
00:43:54Wow.
00:43:55Yes, of course.
00:43:57Absolutely.
00:43:58Mm-hmm.
00:44:00Uh, this store, along with the entire brand, has been sold to Mr. Shepard.
00:44:06The Shepard Group is the new owner.
00:44:08How may I be upstairs today, sir?
00:44:11Well, Lauren, I don't know much about pressure.
00:44:14So I would like to give you this brand to you.
00:44:17You can't be serious.
00:44:19You don't have the kind of money to buy this store.
00:44:21Don't listen to her, Brian.
00:44:24You two just go do whatever you do somewhere else.
00:44:27You're not welcome here.
00:44:28I want the two of these out of my store.
00:44:35I want the two of these out of my store.
00:44:38Of course.
00:44:40Oh, come on.
00:44:41Sir?
00:44:42Ma'am?
00:44:43You're afraid I have to ask you to leave?
00:44:44Well, we're not leaving, okay?
00:44:46Hey, hey, hey!
00:44:47This isn't over, Laura!
00:44:49Could I try the dress on now?
00:44:51Of course, Miss Lewis.
00:44:52You just follow me.
00:45:00Wow.
00:45:02Miss Lewis, this dress really was made for you.
00:45:08Laura, you look breath-taking in this dress.
00:45:11Brian, why would you do all of this for me?
00:45:18Laura, because you deserve everything beautiful in the world.
00:45:25And that includes this dress.
00:45:30Will you give us a chance to see where things could go?
00:45:34I...
00:45:36I need a moment.
00:45:38Perhaps we could talk some more about this after the investment meeting?
00:45:43Does that mean it could be a yes?
00:45:46Maybe.
00:45:53Hi.
00:45:54Hi.
00:46:04What?
00:46:06Well, well, well.
00:46:08Look who decided to join the party.
00:46:10Playing dress-up again, Laura?
00:46:12One more disrespectful remark towards Laura, Miss Smith.
00:46:15And you understand the meaning of rude.
00:46:17You threatening my girlfriend in front of everyone?
00:46:20For this.
00:46:21This gold digger.
00:46:23You know, Ben.
00:46:24I really cared about you.
00:46:25Even after all the horrible things you said to me after our divorce.
00:46:29I know the name of a great psychologist in New York.
00:46:33Maybe the shrinks in Maplewood aren't equipped to deal with your issues.
00:46:38Enough!
00:46:40I've had enough of this drama.
00:46:41Yeah, me too.
00:46:43Try that again, and you'll regret it.
00:46:46I'll get the hell out of my face.
00:46:48Let's see if you two even make it past the door.
00:46:50Yeah.
00:46:53I'm sorry, Miss Smith, but your name's not on the guest list.
00:46:56What?
00:46:57That's impossible.
00:46:59I was invited by the CEO himself.
00:47:04Unfortunately, neither Harrison Group or Smith Group, your name is on the list.
00:47:08It looks like you two won't be getting let in after all.
00:47:12You don't have an invitation.
00:47:14You're just here because of Brian.
00:47:19Let me see this.
00:47:20This doesn't even look real.
00:47:22It's different from mine.
00:47:23Why don't you ask her if it's real?
00:47:28This appears to be a VIP invitation from the Vice President.
00:47:33Please, right this way.
00:47:34We can continue this discussion later.
00:47:37If you manage to get in.
00:47:42Sir?
00:47:43Madam?
00:47:44We recommend you leave.
00:47:48There you are!
00:47:49How dare you steal my fiancee!
00:47:54There you are!
00:47:55How dare you steal my fiancee!
00:47:58Looks like another relationship fights the dust, Laura.
00:48:00Looks like stealing men is a hobby of yours.
00:48:04Get away from him!
00:48:06He's engaged to me!
00:48:07Hey, hey, hey.
00:48:08Hold your horses, Gwen.
00:48:09That ended a long time ago.
00:48:11Engaged to you.
00:48:13Everyone in Maplewood knows what you did to Brian.
00:48:16Your relationship's history.
00:48:19That was just a little tiff.
00:48:21You really think that could tear us apart?
00:48:24Don't you know who I am?
00:48:26Don't pretend like you don't know.
00:48:28Oh, honey.
00:48:29She don't recognize royalty, let alone a duke.
00:48:32She's just a maid, remember?
00:48:34I don't have time for all this drama.
00:48:37Brian?
00:48:39Let's head inside.
00:48:41Brian!
00:48:43How could you choose this cleaner over me?
00:48:46Are you really gonna humiliate me in front of all of Maplewood?
00:48:50There's nothing left to say, Gloria.
00:48:51Don't make this a scene.
00:48:53Shall we?
00:48:54You okay, Miss Duke?
00:48:56And you are?
00:48:57Amber Smith.
00:48:59I'm the Maplewood branch manager of Lewis Group.
00:49:01What branch? I've never heard of it.
00:49:02What do you want from me?
00:49:03That Laura!
00:49:05She tore up my invitation.
00:49:06Do you think you can get me inside?
00:49:08What, your little manager title couldn't get you past the front door?
00:49:10Please don't waste my time.
00:49:11What do you want from me?
00:49:12That Laura!
00:49:14She tore up my invitation.
00:49:15Do you think you can get me inside?
00:49:17What, your little manager title couldn't get you past the front door?
00:49:21Please don't waste my time.
00:49:22Please don't waste my time.
00:49:23Ãm
00:49:52If I can't have Brian, neither can you.
00:49:57The Duke family has more influence than you think.
00:50:01Chloe, good to see you. I've been expecting you.
00:50:05Uncle Jones, how are you?
00:50:08I need your help with something.
00:50:11What is it? Anything for my little Chloe.
00:50:14It's Brian.
00:50:16Who's that woman? I thought you were...
00:50:19A con woman. She actually used to be a cleaner in his company.
00:50:23What? Are you saying Brian left you for a cleaner?
00:50:29She's pretending to be a Louis to get close to him.
00:50:33What are you planning?
00:50:36I want to destroy Shepard Group.
00:50:41Anyway, I am terribly sorry about Chloe.
00:50:45I had no idea she would be so...
00:50:49intense.
00:50:52What do you mean?
00:50:54You so should have taken her up on her offer.
00:50:56I mean, you guys are just...
00:50:59power couple.
00:51:02I see what you're doing.
00:51:04Power couple, you say?
00:51:06More like a disaster waiting to happen.
00:51:10Anyway, shall we take a seat?
00:51:13Actually, Brian, my seat is...
00:51:17It's up there.
00:51:20Really?
00:51:21She doesn't deserve to sit there.
00:51:23Excuse me.
00:51:24This is my VIP invitation.
00:51:27I can sit wherever I like.
00:51:30Hey, what do you think you're doing?
00:51:32This is signed by all three VPs of Louis Group.
00:51:35Where did you get this?
00:51:37Who did you have to sleep with?
00:51:40That's enough.
00:51:42This is getting us nowhere.
00:51:44Laura is my guest.
00:51:46And I will not tolerate any kind of disrespect towards her.
00:51:51Got it?
00:51:53Mr. Shepard, what do you see in that woman?
00:51:56Miss Duke is a perfect match for you.
00:51:59She's from a good family, beautiful and successful.
00:52:03What more could you ask for?
00:52:06That's a good question.
00:52:08Not much, actually.
00:52:10Honesty.
00:52:12That's what I want.
00:52:14And love.
00:52:16Things that clearly, Chloe has no idea.
00:52:19I said I was sorry.
00:52:21What more do you want?
00:52:23I've watched Chloe grow up.
00:52:25She's like a daughter to me.
00:52:27I won't allow her to be spoken to like that.
00:52:34One more chance, Brian.
00:52:36Let's forget all this nonsense.
00:52:39Do it, Mr. Shepard.
00:52:40Propose.
00:52:41Right here.
00:52:42Right now.
00:52:44Brian?
00:52:48Is this how the Duke family handles business deals?
00:52:52By forcing a ring on someone?
00:52:55Do it.
00:52:56Or you can kiss goodbye all future investments with the Duke family.
00:53:00Don't you dare.
00:53:01You're humiliating yourself.
00:53:02Dare you?
00:53:03Do you really like this nobody from nowhere?
00:53:04Yes.
00:53:05I like her.
00:53:06But I can't imagine someone like her interesting in me.
00:53:09The truth is, I wouldn't be here where I am today without her.
00:53:15Why would you choose someone like her?
00:53:16I know.
00:53:17Exactly.
00:53:18This woman is trouble.
00:53:19She doesn't belong here.
00:53:20Throw her out!
00:53:21You do realize that there is no investment meeting without me?
00:53:22Interesting turn of events.
00:53:23I know.
00:53:24I know.
00:53:25I know.
00:53:26I know.
00:53:27I know.
00:53:28I know.
00:53:29I know.
00:53:30I know.
00:53:31I know.
00:53:32I know.
00:53:33I know.
00:53:34I know.
00:53:35I know.
00:53:36I know.
00:53:37I know.
00:53:38I know.
00:53:39I know.
00:53:40I know.
00:53:41I know.
00:53:42I know.
00:53:43I know.
00:53:44I know.
00:53:45I know.
00:53:46But I know.
00:53:47I know.
00:53:48I know.
00:53:49It's an interesting turn of events.
00:53:50Perhaps it's time to shed some light on your mysterious past?
00:53:53Do you actually think that just because you have the name Laura, that you're the missing
00:53:55heiress Laura Lewis?
00:53:58You know what?
00:53:59Maybe you're right, Chloe.
00:54:02Ridiculous.
00:54:03Is that what you've been telling everyone?
00:54:05I'm sure that the Duke family still values cooperation but wow, did I underestimate
00:54:09that.
00:54:10Wow. Did I underestimate your foolishness, Chloe?
00:54:15You have no right to talk to Miss Duke like that.
00:54:18That's enough. You don't get to talk here.
00:54:21You got mad, Shepard. You dare to go against Miss Duke.
00:54:24And the same applies to everyone else here.
00:54:26Anyone who insults Laura.
00:54:29Leave us with a black eye.
00:54:31It's willing to offend the chick for her.
00:54:33What kind of charm does she have?
00:54:35I want to be careful, Brian.
00:54:37Don't forget that this entire hotel chain is owned by the Lewis Group.
00:54:41Are you willing to get blacklisted for this public tantrum?
00:54:44The Lewis Group isn't blacklisting anyone, especially not Shepard Group.
00:54:54Lewis Group RS? You?
00:54:58Don't make me laugh.
00:55:00Security, remove these two impostors from the premises.
00:55:04Wait, Uncle Jones. Give Brian another chance.
00:55:07Choose, Brian.
00:55:09Me and the future you deserve, or this...fraught.
00:55:15Chloe...
00:55:17I have everything I ever wanted, right here.
00:55:21And I wouldn't trade all the powers that took so many people would.
00:55:25Fine.
00:55:27Short the stock of the Shepard Group.
00:55:33What?
00:55:36You forced my hand, Brian.
00:55:38Now Shepard Group is ruined.
00:55:40The Duke family?
00:55:41They can't be serious.
00:55:42Shepard Group is doomed.
00:55:44Brian...
00:55:46You don't have to do this for me.
00:55:48Laura...
00:55:50Now we'll never let anyone bully you.
00:55:52Let alone them.
00:55:54Thank you, Brian.
00:55:57For...
00:55:58For believing in me.
00:56:00For...
00:56:01Protecting...
00:56:02Me.
00:56:03Now it's my turn...
00:56:05To protect you.
00:56:12Listen carefully.
00:56:14I need you to protect the Shepard Group stock.
00:56:17At all costs.
00:56:19Don't let it drop.
00:56:21Even one...
00:56:22Cent.
00:56:23Do you understand?
00:56:25Well...
00:56:26Award winning performance, Laura.
00:56:29But you can't possibly control stock.
00:56:32Want to put your...
00:56:34Money where your mouth is, Chloe?
00:56:36If...
00:56:38The Shepard stock holds...
00:56:41For the next...
00:56:43Five minutes...
00:56:45You owe me a public apology.
00:56:54I do.
00:56:59Well...
00:57:01Looks like your five minutes is up.
00:57:04Let's see how the Shepard stock is doing.
00:57:07What the?
00:57:11Does Shepard grip stock prices?
00:57:14It's going up!
00:57:16This can't be happening.
00:57:17It must be a coincidence.
00:57:24Why didn't you short the stock like I asked?
00:57:27There was a huge investment.
00:57:29We couldn't compete.
00:57:30Shepard's stock price is being heavily supported.
00:57:33How did you do this?
00:57:35Like I said, Chloe...
00:57:39I'm...
00:57:40Laura Lewis.
00:57:42But you're not.
00:57:43You're just some clean-up.
00:57:44You don't have access to billions.
00:57:47Well...
00:57:49I think it's time for my apology.
00:57:56No.
00:57:58I think it's time for my apology.
00:58:00There is no way I'm apologizing to you.
00:58:02If things were the other way,
00:58:03would you be so quick to forgive me?
00:58:06Chloe?
00:58:07The truth is...
00:58:09Everyone here...
00:58:12has seen you be a bully.
00:58:14And a coward.
00:58:16And now...
00:58:18a sore loser.
00:58:20This is so humiliating for her.
00:58:23How did she manage that?
00:58:25Maybe she really is a Lewis.
00:58:28Apologize to Miss Lewis.
00:58:29Shut up.
00:58:31Don't you dare talk about Miss Duke like that.
00:58:34Don't forget...
00:58:35The Duke finally owned half of Maplewood.
00:58:37You don't deserve this.
00:58:39Let's get out of here.
00:58:41Hold on.
00:58:43This...
00:58:45is where I belong.
00:58:47And that...
00:58:49is my chair.
00:58:50You can't go there.
00:58:51That is the VIP section.
00:58:53Only those invited by the Lewis Group Vice Presidents get to sit there.
00:58:58Like I said, Chloe...
00:59:01that's my seat.
00:59:08Had a rumor floating around a few days ago.
00:59:11Seems Miss Lewis caused quite a scene at a signing ceremony between her ex and Mr Shepherd, wasn't it?
00:59:19Are you planning another outburst, Laura?
00:59:22Is this how you charm all your men?
00:59:24Shall we?
00:59:26My pleasure.
00:59:28What are you doing?
00:59:30Let go.
00:59:31It doesn't matter what happens.
00:59:33I choose to stay by Laura's side.
00:59:36Let's go.
00:59:38Don't be absurd.
00:59:39That seat is reserved for a very important guest.
00:59:43Someone so esteemed, even the Vice Presidents have to bow low.
00:59:49And...
00:59:51How?
00:59:52Exactly, Mr Jones?
00:59:54Are you so sure that I'm not that esteemed guest?
00:59:59Wait, that's Peter Young.
01:00:00Director of Business Affairs at Lewis Group.
01:00:07That's Peter Young.
01:00:08He decides which...
01:00:09Mr Young, it's Chloe Duke.
01:00:11Head of Duke Industries.
01:00:12So glad you could join us.
01:00:13Why is everyone standing around?
01:00:15It's her.
01:00:16She's making a huge scene trying to claim the VIP seat.
01:00:19It's...
01:00:20It's embarrassing.
01:00:21That seat's reserved for the Lewis Group VIP guest.
01:00:24Specifically the family heir.
01:00:27Please get off the stage.
01:00:29Oh yes.
01:00:30Mr Young, was it?
01:00:33I think I remember you.
01:00:34You manage my family's investments.
01:00:38Don't pretend like you know what's going on.
01:00:40Please get off the stage.
01:00:42That seat's reserved for the Lewis family heir.
01:00:45I need to make one thing crystal clear.
01:00:52I am the heir of the Lewis family.
01:00:57This is ridiculous.
01:00:58You.
01:00:59The Lewis heir.
01:01:00Don't you know that Miss Lewis is a legend around here?
01:01:02You must be out of your mind trusting a complete stranger like this.
01:01:03Exactly.
01:01:04We ran a background check on her.
01:01:05And it turns out she's just some cleaner that used to work for the Harrison Group.
01:01:06Before that, I could see her in my family's supermarkets.
01:01:08See Brian?
01:01:09This is who you've been chasing after.
01:01:10A liar and a cheat.
01:01:11Security, get this imposter out of here.
01:01:12And everyone here is a witness.
01:01:13Why would any of you trust Laura?
01:01:14If any of you dares to harm her, you have to go through me first.
01:01:15Brian, please.
01:01:16This is what I am saying.
01:01:17What do you think?
01:01:18Why is it?
01:01:19There's a killer.
01:01:20It's an idiot.
01:01:21It's a killer killer killer.
01:01:22Exactly.
01:01:23We ran a background check on her.
01:01:24And it turns out she's just some cleaner that used to work for the Harrison Group.
01:01:26And before that, I could see her in my family's supermarket.
01:01:27See Brian?
01:01:28This is who you've been chasing after.
01:01:29A liar and a cheat.
01:01:31Security.
01:01:32Get this imposter out of here.
01:01:33And everyone here is a witness.
01:01:34Why would any of you trust Laura?
01:01:35If any of you dares to harm her?
01:01:37You have to go through me first.
01:01:40Brian, she's just a nobody.
01:01:43She's just someone that the Harrison group ditched.
01:01:46They didn't even want her.
01:01:48What exactly do you see in her?
01:01:50Escort this imposter out of here.
01:01:52Now!
01:01:53I'm Peter.
01:02:02Peter, do you have any idea what you're doing?
01:02:05Mr. Yates, I'm so glad you could join us.
01:02:11Ms. Lewis, sorry about the delay and for all the trouble you've had to put up with.
01:02:16It's no trouble, Mr. Yates.
01:02:19Luckily, I haven't been alone.
01:02:21I've had the great company of my very loyal... friend.
01:02:27Wait a minute. She's Ms. Lewis. Is this a joke?
01:02:31Mr. Young, you're new to the Lewis group, so I can understand why you wouldn't recognize Ms. Lewis.
01:02:38But you listened to lies without checking the facts.
01:02:42And almost called the police.
01:02:45Tell me, Mr. Young, who put you up to this?
01:02:50Was it my uncle, Ian Lewis?
01:02:55I knew it.
01:03:00Consider this your... termination.
01:03:03I get it now.
01:03:05This is all an act, right?
01:03:07Chloe, what are you doing? We still want to work with the Lewis family.
01:03:09Work with them? Are you blind? This woman is clearly having an affair with this old man.
01:03:14That's enough, young lady. You've got no right to disrespect the head of the Lewis group.
01:03:21Oh, Chloe. I can't believe we're going through this again.
01:03:25I think you need some professional help.
01:03:28Maybe I could make you an appointment with a great psychiatrist.
01:03:31Chloe, that's enough.
01:03:33It's ridiculous. If you were really the Lewis family heir, you would have the ring.
01:03:37So why don't you show it to everyone?
01:03:39Show us the ring!
01:03:44Show us the ring!
01:03:46Show us the ring!
01:03:47Show us the ring!
01:03:48Show us the ring!
01:03:49Who are you to make demands of me?
01:03:52I don't answer to anyone but myself.
01:03:56I don't need any of your validation.
01:04:03The ring.
01:04:07Vice Presidents, I'm Chloe Duke of the Duke family.
01:04:11This woman is an imposter.
01:04:13Miss Lewis.
01:04:14We apologise for the delay.
01:04:16How could you just let that con woman sit there?
01:04:19Get her out of here!
01:04:20This seat was always for Miss Lewis.
01:04:23She's the special guest we've been waiting for.
01:04:27The investment queen.
01:04:29The real heir to Lewis group.
01:04:32Laura Lewis.
01:04:34She has a divorced host wife.
01:04:35A janitor.
01:04:36How can she?
01:04:37She can't be.
01:04:38It's a lie, I'm telling you.
01:04:39It's a lie.
01:04:40Do you think we'd lie?
01:04:42We run Lewis group.
01:04:45Oh, Chloe.
01:04:46You assaulted me earlier.
01:04:49And you came to this meeting to what?
01:04:52Sabotage it.
01:04:54You'll be hearing from our legal team.
01:04:56Is this true, Miss Duke?
01:04:57Did you try and sabotage this meeting?
01:04:58Yes.
01:04:59It's all true.
01:05:00She fooled us all.
01:05:01The Duke tricked us to keep Lewis group out of Maplewood and control everything themselves.
01:05:02I had no idea.
01:05:03But I'm on your side.
01:05:04I can give you everything you need.
01:05:05All the resources in Maplewood.
01:05:06Miss Lewis, how would you like us to deal with this?
01:05:07An eye for an eye.
01:05:08Since Miss Duke here loves.
01:05:09It's all true.
01:05:10It's all true.
01:05:11It's all true.
01:05:12She fooled us all.
01:05:13The Duke tricked us to keep Lewis group out of Maplewood and control everything themselves.
01:05:15I had no idea.
01:05:16But I'm on your side.
01:05:18I can give you everything you need.
01:05:21All the resources in Maplewood.
01:05:22Miss Lewis, how would you like us to deal with this?
01:05:25An eye for an eye. Since Miss Duke here loves ruining things, I'll target her precious Duke Industries.
01:05:42I want them bankrupt in 10 minutes.
01:05:46You're bluffing.
01:05:47You're nobody.
01:05:48You'll always be a nobody.
01:05:50And you can't touch me.
01:05:52Then consider this a test, Chloe.
01:05:56I didn't need my family's support with Shepard and I certainly don't even know.
01:06:01Chloe, you dug your own grave.
01:06:04You think you can destroy Maplewood's leading family with just the Shepard group?
01:06:09Please.
01:06:13We'll see.
01:06:18Dad?
01:06:19What?
01:06:20Slow down.
01:06:21What are you talking about?
01:06:24No.
01:06:26It's impossible.
01:06:28Chloe, what have you done?
01:06:30Years of hard work.
01:06:31Destroyed in minutes.
01:06:37What did you do?
01:06:39Well, Chloe, isn't this what you wanted?
01:06:43To give me a little taste of destruction?
01:06:46This is impossible.
01:06:48It's impossible.
01:06:49Chloe, what have you done?
01:06:52The news is everywhere.
01:06:54Shepard's launched a full scale assault on the stock market.
01:06:57They're hammering our shares.
01:06:59Are you sure it's just Shepard?
01:07:02Yes.
01:07:03Shareholders are dumping our stock like it's a hot potato.
01:07:06We could go bankrupt.
01:07:08You've ruined everything.
01:07:10Don't worry, Mr. Duke.
01:07:12When your company does go bankrupt, I'll buy it.
01:07:16At a fire sale price.
01:07:17Your employees won't even be affected.
01:07:19Brilliant.
01:07:20A master's job, Miss Lewis.
01:07:24Now, this is my event.
01:07:28Please leave.
01:07:29Brian, I did this for us.
01:07:31Everything I did, I did for us, Brian.
01:07:33Chloe, you need help.
01:07:38These feelings you have for me.
01:07:41It's not love.
01:07:43It's obsession.
01:07:45Enough.
01:07:46If you don't want to ruin everything completely, you'll come with me.
01:07:50Right now.
01:07:51No.
01:07:52Right now.
01:07:54Laura!
01:07:55This isn't our most!
01:07:56Get out of me!
01:07:57What is it?
01:07:58Do you hear me?
01:07:59What is going on here?
01:08:00Did they finally expose Laura's lies?
01:08:01Shepard Group.
01:08:02They have a new partner that's partnering up with Lewis Group for Maplewood.
01:08:05They're handling all future construction projects.
01:08:06That can't be.
01:08:07No.
01:08:08No.
01:08:09No.
01:08:10No.
01:08:11No.
01:08:12No.
01:08:13No.
01:08:14No.
01:08:15No.
01:08:16No.
01:08:17No.
01:08:18No.
01:08:19No.
01:08:20No.
01:08:21No.
01:08:22No.
01:08:23No.
01:08:24That can't be.
01:08:25What about us?
01:08:26That was our project.
01:08:27Remember, Laura teamed up with Brian.
01:08:29Harrison Group is practically out.
01:08:31We have no chance.
01:08:32We can't give up that easily.
01:08:34Remember, Ian Lewis himself appointed me as general manager.
01:08:38In a few days, he promised that he would let us meet with a new heir.
01:08:42You're right.
01:08:43If we can just meet with a new heir, we can bypass the Shepards and meet directly with the
01:08:47Lewis Group.
01:08:48We just have to play their little game and see who comes out on top.
01:08:53Sure.
01:08:57Vice Presidents, allow me to introduce my associate, Brian Shepard.
01:09:03I'm sure I've met you before.
01:09:05Mr. Shepard, finally a pleasure to meet you.
01:09:08We've looked into your company's financial review.
01:09:12Very impressive.
01:09:14Thank you, bud.
01:09:15A large part of that success is thanks to Ms. Lewis.
01:09:19No.
01:09:20She practically saved me from disaster.
01:09:23Three times over now.
01:09:24Brian, you can just call me to work.
01:09:27Ms. Lewis's recommendation is very telling, Mr. Shepard.
01:09:31Perhaps today clarifies everything.
01:09:34Mr. Shepard, this opportunity is gone.
01:09:38Seize it.
01:09:40A woman like Laura is not easy to find.
01:09:43Thank you for your kind words, Mr. Vice President.
01:09:54Did Laura send you to kill me?
01:09:56Laura?
01:09:57Hardly.
01:09:58I'm Ian Lewis, CEO and rightful heir of the Lewis Group.
01:10:04So you're Laura's uncle?
01:10:07In the flesh.
01:10:08So Laura really is your niece?
01:10:11Yes, little Laura.
01:10:14She just threw away her birthright about two, three years ago.
01:10:18Ran off and married a nobody from Maplewood.
01:10:21I think he was a Harrison.
01:10:23Now Laura's got the VPs and Mr. Yates on her side.
01:10:26Did you hear she's throwing a banquet in a few days to announce her official takeover?
01:10:30And we can't let that happen, can we, my dear?
01:10:34If you're Ian Lewis, wouldn't you have the family ring?
01:10:37Well, my dear, that's where you come in, Miss Duke.
01:10:40We need you to relinquish my ring.
01:10:43What if I, what if I fail?
01:10:46My family is already ruined.
01:10:49Yes, you are in a spot of bother, I must say.
01:10:52But, if successful, I guarantee that you and the Duke family will get back everything you've lost.
01:11:00Laura's got the VPs and Brian on her side.
01:11:02How can I possibly get the ring?
01:11:04There is a way, you know, that we can make Laura relinquish and give up that ring willingly.
01:11:14Laura, my dear, welcome.
01:11:16Uncle Ian, it's so good to see you.
01:11:23Laura.
01:11:24So good to see you.
01:11:25And you, it's been too long, two, three years perhaps.
01:11:30How have you been?
01:11:31I've been well, Uncle Ian.
01:11:33Thank you for asking.
01:11:35I see you've been busy keeping Lewis Group afloat.
01:11:39Yes.
01:11:40Kind of been easy.
01:11:41Indeed.
01:11:42Somebody had to.
01:11:43I mean, after you left me with everything to do, without a safe pair of hands, I hate to think what would have happened to the company.
01:11:50Actually, Uncle Ian, from what I've heard, you've lost billions with some questionable investment decisions.
01:11:59Yes.
01:12:00Minor mistakes.
01:12:01Minor.
01:12:02Don't worry, Uncle Ian, I won't hold it against you.
01:12:05Oh, good.
01:12:07Well, cheers to you coming back here.
01:12:10And the Lewis Group.
01:12:14Oh!
01:12:15I'm so sorry, Laura.
01:12:17How clumsy of me.
01:12:19No, no worries, Uncle Ian.
01:12:21I'll just go to the restroom and get cleaned up.
01:12:25Of course.
01:12:27Right away.
01:12:28Just down to the left.
01:12:35Use it wisely.
01:12:36Oh, I will.
01:12:37Hey, Laura.
01:12:38How's that?
01:12:39Hello, Brian.
01:12:40Your little girlfriend is with me now.
01:12:45Chloe.
01:12:46How in the hell did you get Laura's phone?
01:12:47Let's just say that I have my ways.
01:12:56Listen, Chloe.
01:12:57Don't hurt her.
01:12:58Please.
01:12:59I'll do anything.
01:13:00Come to the abandoned warehouse in the eastern suburbs.
01:13:03Now.
01:13:04Don't tell anyone if you want her alive.
01:13:06Well, you certainly do have your ways.
01:13:10Oh, thank goodness you've cleared up.
01:13:11I am sorry.
01:13:12How clumsy.
01:13:13And don't forget your phone.
01:13:14I retrieved it for you.
01:13:16Lovely to see you again.
01:13:17Yeah.
01:13:18I guess I'll see you the day after tomorrow at the banquet.
01:13:19At the banquet.
01:13:20At the banquet.
01:13:21I'll see you then.
01:13:22Will do.
01:13:23Looking forward to it.
01:13:24Laura.
01:13:25Laura!
01:13:26Laura!
01:13:27Laura!
01:13:28Laura!
01:13:29I will die.
01:13:30Dziękuję.
01:13:31Peace out.
01:13:32Thy place that색 all up at the place, they deliver this
01:13:40Awesome.
01:13:41Come on.
01:13:42Go and the Host.
01:13:43Nice.
01:13:44��분ie do.
01:13:45Hope you'll stay right here, please.
01:13:46Follow me.
01:13:47Sog and get married.
01:13:48Will.
01:13:49I've been...
01:13:50fishing.
01:13:51Well...
01:13:52Welcome.
01:13:53Laura! Where are you?
01:13:55Laura!
01:13:57Laura! Where are you?
01:13:59Laura!
01:14:01Laura, where are you?
01:14:07Gotcha.
01:14:11You weren't expecting that, were you?
01:14:23Finally!
01:14:25Looks like your little boyfriend got turned around.
01:14:27What the?
01:14:29Laura, where are you? Laura?
01:14:31Go shut your mouth.
01:14:33Chloe, what have you done?
01:14:35Are you out of your mind?
01:14:37Out of my mind!
01:14:39You were the one that left me for that tramp
01:14:41and destroyed my life!
01:14:43That's not true! You were the one who messed up!
01:14:45Ryan! Laura!
01:14:49Stay where you are!
01:14:51Come alone!
01:14:53Shut this knife, Chloe!
01:14:55This is insane!
01:14:57Insane? I did this for us,
01:14:59Brian!
01:15:01We were meant to be together!
01:15:03Us? You've gone crazy!
01:15:05And you're out of here!
01:15:07Chloe, kidnapping
01:15:09is a very serious event.
01:15:11They're gonna lock you up for years!
01:15:13You think I care
01:15:15about jail time?
01:15:17All I care about is tearing you two apart.
01:15:19You don't deserve him!
01:15:21What have you done?
01:15:23You've destroyed my life!
01:15:25My company, everything!
01:15:27Now I'm gonna destroy your life!
01:15:29Give me
01:15:31the family ring now!
01:15:33Give it to me!
01:15:35This is about the ring!
01:15:37Did my Uncle Ian put you up to this?
01:15:39You know, Chloe,
01:15:41Trying to kill me
01:15:43That's foolish!
01:15:45Because who do you think is gonna win?
01:15:47You?
01:15:49That little knife?
01:15:51Or...
01:15:53Me?
01:15:55Something a little bit more persuasive?
01:15:57No!
01:16:05Freeze!
01:16:07Don't move anyone!
01:16:11Don't move!
01:16:13You're about to be arrested for kidnapping!
01:16:15Miss Lewis?
01:16:17Having fun without me?
01:16:19I'm hurt!
01:16:21Are you hurt?
01:16:23No, I'm okay.
01:16:27Tell me, Chloe.
01:16:29Who put you up to this, Chloe?
01:16:32Why should I tell you?
01:16:34You're gonna kill me anyway!
01:16:36Chloe, I don't have a problem with you.
01:16:39But if you don't talk,
01:16:41your beloved Duke Industries might run into some.
01:16:46Well, I'm recording everything, Miss Lewis.
01:16:49So the choice is yours, Chloe.
01:16:52Talk!
01:16:53Or face the consequences.
01:16:55Fine!
01:16:56It was Ian Lewis.
01:16:58He...
01:16:59He said he'd help Duke Industries
01:17:00if I kept you away from the bank room today.
01:17:04Did you get all of that, Mr. Yates?
01:17:06I'm recording everything, Miss Lewis.
01:17:11Oh, every word, Miss Lewis.
01:17:13Are you ready to play a game, Brian?
01:17:15This is crazy.
01:17:27Are we really sure we can do this?
01:17:29All these big companies here, it's crazy.
01:17:31Absolutely.
01:17:32The Lewis Group is under new leadership.
01:17:34We can talk to the heiress herself.
01:17:36Exactly.
01:17:37We just need to make sure we make a good impression
01:17:39on the new heir.
01:17:41There's Ian Lewis now.
01:17:43You can introduce yourself.
01:17:44Let's go.
01:17:45Yeah.
01:17:48Hello, Ian Lewis.
01:17:49I'm Amber Smith.
01:17:50We spoke on the phone the other day.
01:17:52This is Ben Harrison from Harrison Group.
01:17:54How do you do?
01:17:55We're the company that...
01:17:56Yes, I know who you are.
01:17:57Miss Smith, you're the one who exposed Laura's little drama.
01:18:01Now, look, I'm not here for idle chatter.
01:18:03Good evening, ladies and gentlemen.
01:18:04Can I ask you all to be seated, please?
01:18:07The moment you've all been waiting for.
01:18:08Tonight marks a new chapter in the life of the Lewis Group.
01:18:09A night where the rightful heir takes their place.
01:18:10Would you please join me in welcoming the heir to the Lewis Group, Miss Laura Lewis?
01:18:15Uh, look, everybody, attention.
01:18:16Attention, please.
01:18:17There's been a recent development of some tragedy.
01:18:22I just got noticed from a phone call a couple of minutes ago that Laura has been in a
01:18:29car accident and, tragically, she hasn't made it.
01:18:47She has not survived.
01:18:50What?
01:18:54Laura Lewis is dead?
01:18:57It doesn't matter now, she's gone.
01:19:00Mr. Lewis, is this new-
01:19:01A tragic turn of events, Mr. Yates.
01:19:04But rest assured, the Lewis group will continue under my competent leadership.
01:19:10Hold on! Who said that I'm dead?
01:19:15Laura!
01:19:20I don't understand. What's happening?
01:19:23Laura? But weren't you-
01:19:26My apologies for the delay, everyone. There seems to be some misunderstanding.
01:19:33Laura, what are you doing here? You gotta stop this. If you upset the Lewis family anymore, we're all doomed.
01:19:38I'll say this once. Back off, then.
01:19:41Thank you for coming, everyone. As I'm sure you know, tonight, I officially reclaim my title as the CEO of Lewis group.
01:19:58Perhaps you could make some room for me. Uncle Ian?
01:20:04Impossible. How are you still alive?
01:20:07Well, clearly I am alive and well, so why don't we get this started?
01:20:11No. You're not the rightful heir. You gave that away when you married Ben Harrison.
01:20:17Uncle Ian, is that seriously your argument that you have that I got married too quickly?
01:20:25Well, you went off to Maplewood three years ago and married a stranger and left me to work tirelessly keeping the company together.
01:20:32Uncle Ian, retire. Enjoy your retirement. Lewis group will be perfectly fine without you.
01:20:39No. There can only be one heir, and that's me. And the rightful heir has possession of this.
01:20:49You think a ring makes an heir? You're even more foolish than I could have ever imagined.
01:20:56Give that back to me.
01:20:58This?
01:20:59Yes.
01:21:00You think some shiny gold thing makes you the heir?
01:21:04Give it back.
01:21:05True leadership is about earning the respect of those around you. Not some stupid ring.
01:21:14Oh, my ring! What have you done? Where is it?
01:21:20My ring!
01:21:22Now, everyone, if I could have your attention.
01:21:25How dare you!
01:21:26Now, let me show you how a true heir earns a ring like that.
01:21:31Talk.
01:21:32I'm working for an officer.
01:21:33Fine.
01:21:34It was Ian Lewis. He said he helped you in distress if I kept you away from the bankers today.
01:21:43Oh, quite the spectacle, Miss Lewis. Security, escort him out. And Ian, don't fall over.
01:21:53It's all lies. It's all lies. Fakery. It's fake news.
01:21:57The proof is clear. Get him out of here. Now.
01:22:02I owe all of you an apology for everything that's happened tonight.
01:22:08It turns out reclaiming my birthright didn't go as smoothly as I had hoped.
01:22:14Luckily, these past few days I've had Mr. Shepherd by my side.
01:22:21And he has been a great support.
01:22:25Lewis Group has a lot of exciting plans for Maplewood.
01:22:32I'm proud to announce that we have secured a reliable partner.
01:22:40Shepherd Group.
01:22:41What? Laura, hold on. This was never my idea. This was all Kathy and Amber's fault. I don't want a divorce.
01:22:48What? Then what are you saying? You came to me first.
01:22:51Classic Ben. Something goes wrong and you start pointing the fingers at all the women in your life.
01:22:57Just don't shut Harrison Group out. Just give me another chance.
01:23:01How could I shut you out? I'm just a cleaner, remember? I'm just a useless housewife.
01:23:08I don't have that power.
01:23:11What are you talking about? What? No, come on. Sorry. No, please. No.
01:23:16Um, Mr. Shepherd?
01:23:18Yes, Miss Lewis?
01:23:20I was wondering if...
01:23:24Maybe you wanted to grab dinner. Sometime.
01:23:29On me.
01:23:31Miss Lewis.
01:23:34I would love to.
01:23:37To be right.
01:23:38Maybe you want to party?
01:23:39If you would behave in the�TS.
01:23:43What are you saying?
01:23:45I would like you to be running for a second.
01:23:47We'll try to be right against anybody.
01:23:48I'd love myself because of hopefully, of course, the sun being there.
01:23:57We't have a passingout of you.
01:23:58At a place.
01:23:59We'll clean up half, three hands.
01:24:00I'm tired.
01:24:01New seat.
01:24:02ingerie big.
