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