Short filmTranscript
00:00:00Doctor, is my mom gonna be okay? I'm sorry Grace, she has a brain hemorrhage. With
00:00:20immediate surgery there is a chance, but it'll cost five hundred thousand.
00:00:28I don't have that kind of money, but mom needs me. I'll find a way to get the
00:00:35money. Please just save my mom. I can do that. Grace Miller! Rose, well thank God you
00:00:44two are here. Mom was working at the orphanage when she fainted and it's
00:00:47gonna cost five hundred grand. Five hundred grand? And where are we supposed to get that?
00:00:54Call off the surgery, doc. There's no way we're paying for that. Rose, what are you
00:00:59saying? She's our mom. She adopted us. You can't just- Just enforce us to grow up dirt poor.
00:01:04She's a low-life worker. She doesn't deserve to be a mom. If it wasn't for her, we
00:01:09could have been adopted by someone rich! You guys hear yourself. She took us in
00:01:14when we had nothing. She gave us a home. She made sure that we were never hungry.
00:01:18And you're just mad at her because she's not rich? Speaking of money, today's mom's paid it.
00:01:25This is mom's. Don't you dare touch it! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No, mom worked hard for
00:01:49that. Should be enough for a new iPhone though. Mom needs that money for her surgery. You can't
00:01:54just take it. Sure we can. That old hag's about to die. Her money's ours now. You want money?
00:01:59Pick it up!
00:02:01Consider this our donation to mom's surgery. Or funeral.
00:02:18I'll save you mom. I can sell blood for money. This is the only way I might be able
00:02:41I might be able to save mom.
00:03:11Go ahead, take a seat, guys. Look, I've gathered you all here today for a very important announcement.
00:03:24Fifteen years ago, my mother, Mary Miller, disappeared to live a quiet life in a small town. But now,
00:03:31she is returning to take her rightful place as the CEO of the Phoenix Group, ladies and gentlemen.
00:03:36The CEO has finally returned.
00:03:38Ms. Miller raised her son alone to build Phoenix Group. Now, after fifteen years, she's coming back.
00:03:44Even out of the public eye, she remains a legend. No one can match what she built.
00:03:49See, although my mother's been living in seclusion, we've remained in contact over the years. And she's adopted three children who I believe will be joining our company very soon.
00:03:58Sir, we can't find your mother. She isn't answering our calls.
00:04:03What? My mother is missing?
00:04:08I want to sell my blood. Please. I have an extremely rare blood type. Type AB negative. You need it and I need money for my mother's surgery. Please.
00:04:28We are at 400. I have to stop now or you'll pass out.
00:04:43No. No. Don't. Don't stop. I can do it.
00:04:49Just keep.
00:04:50Miss?
00:04:51Just keep. Keep going.
00:04:52Miss? Miss? Miss? Miss? Miss?
00:04:57Miss? Miss? Miss? Miss? Miss? Miss? Miss? Miss? Miss? Miss? Miss? Miss? Miss? Miss? Miss? Miss? Miss? Miss? Miss? Miss? Miss? Miss? Miss? Miss? Miss? Miss? Miss? Miss? Miss? Miss? Miss? Miss? Miss? Miss? Miss? Miss? Miss? Miss? Miss? Miss? Miss? Miss? Miss? Miss? Miss? Miss? Miss? Miss? Miss? Miss? Miss? Miss? Miss? Miss? Miss? Miss? Miss? Miss? Miss? Miss? Miss? Miss? Miss? Miss? Miss? Miss? Miss? Miss? Miss? Miss? Miss? Miss? Miss? Miss? Miss? Miss? Miss? Miss? Miss? Miss? Miss? Miss? Miss? Miss? Miss? Miss? Miss? Miss? Miss? Miss? Miss? Miss? Miss? Miss? Miss? Miss? Miss? Miss? Miss? Miss? Miss? Miss? Miss? Miss? Miss? Miss? Miss? Miss? Miss? Miss? Miss
00:05:27very expensive long-term care.
00:05:29Oh, I got it, doctor.
00:05:32She's my mom.
00:05:33I won't give up on her.
00:05:35She's very lucky to have you.
00:05:37I'll go work on the list of her medication.
00:05:45You adopted me, mom.
00:05:47You taught me what family was.
00:05:51Love is...
00:05:53Don't worry.
00:05:54I'm not gonna give up on you.
00:05:56I'm gonna make sure you get better.
00:06:07I spent hours.
00:06:08Where is Miss Miller?
00:06:10If Miss Miller says she's returning,
00:06:12then she will be coming back.
00:06:13Otherwise, Mr. Miller will find her.
00:06:16When she left 15 years ago,
00:06:18she made all of us.
00:06:19Even Mr. Miller promised never to search for her.
00:06:22Did you reach her?
00:06:25Her phone is completely dead.
00:06:27She'd never let that happen.
00:06:28Not on the day that she's supposed to return.
00:06:32Something's not right.
00:06:35Do whatever it takes.
00:06:37Flip this city upside down.
00:06:38I don't care, but we're gonna find my mother.
00:06:40Yes, sir.
00:06:41Yes, sir.
00:06:41One day at work here will cover three days of mom's medication.
00:06:59Next!
00:07:00No, sir.
00:07:01I'm here to work.
00:07:02Please, if there's any opportunity that you have,
00:07:05I would gladly take it.
00:07:06Come on, Grace.
00:07:08Everyone knows you passed out yesterday at the hospital.
00:07:10I can't have you dying on my sight.
00:07:12I'll lose my damn job.
00:07:13No, please, please.
00:07:14I'm begging you.
00:07:15Please, I really need the money.
00:07:17My mom will die without it.
00:07:19But with treatment, I mean,
00:07:21there's a chance that she may wake up.
00:07:24But if I give up, it's over for her.
00:07:26Please.
00:07:26Please.
00:07:28If I catch you slacking off one time,
00:07:30I won't pay you a single penny.
00:07:33Thank you so much.
00:07:37You can trust me.
00:07:38I am a hard worker.
00:07:40Next!
00:07:44Don't worry, Mom.
00:07:45I'll make enough money, and you'll get better.
00:08:03All right, time for lunch.
00:08:08Get back to work as soon as you're finished.
00:08:12Grace!
00:08:15Lucy, what's wrong?
00:08:16You have to get home right now, Grace.
00:08:18Your sister and brother are selling your mom's house.
00:08:27We've turned this whole house upside down.
00:08:31I can't believe the old hag doesn't even have any savings.
00:08:33Whatever, just forget it.
00:08:34Let's get down to business.
00:08:35Where's the inheritance letter?
00:08:37You see this, Mom?
00:08:39You ruined our life at a better chance with a rich family.
00:08:43Now, with just one little stamp here,
00:08:46you'll give us what we deserve.
00:08:47As if this old hag can hear you.
00:08:49Just get it over with already.
00:08:54What are you doing?
00:08:58Mom, Mom, are you okay?
00:09:00Okay.
00:09:03You're trying to steal Mom's house?
00:09:07You can't do that.
00:09:08Mom worked hard for it.
00:09:10Fine.
00:09:11If she doesn't want us to sell it, then we won't.
00:09:13Hmm?
00:09:14Go on.
00:09:15Say it.
00:09:16Say it.
00:09:17Hey, you old hag.
00:09:18Is anyone there?
00:09:19Hello?
00:09:20Can you speak up?
00:09:21Speak up!
00:09:22Get your filthy hands off of her.
00:09:23Be honest.
00:09:26You don't actually give a shit about Mom.
00:09:28You're just putting on a little show,
00:09:30hoping she'll magically wake up and give you everything.
00:09:32That's not true.
00:09:33That's...
00:09:34Aw, poor little Grace,
00:09:36trying so hard and your mommy can't even see.
00:09:40If you don't want to take care of Mom,
00:09:42that's fine.
00:09:42I'll do it myself.
00:09:44But I'm not going to let you take anything away from her.
00:09:46Try and stop us.
00:09:48No!
00:09:54Mom?
00:09:56Mom?
00:09:57Your finger's moving.
00:10:01Would you look at that?
00:10:02She's actually losing it.
00:10:06I saw it.
00:10:07Her finger's moving.
00:10:08She's trying to tell us something.
00:10:09Mom's brain is mush.
00:10:11The only thing moving in her head
00:10:12are the worms eating the rest of it out.
00:10:17You stupid bitch.
00:10:32I'm tired of repeating myself,
00:10:34Mom is dying.
00:10:35Dead people don't need a house.
00:10:38You know,
00:10:39William and I just want the best for you, little sis.
00:10:43Say,
00:10:44you and the mayor's son are the same age, right?
00:10:46Mayor's daughter-in-law sounds awfully nice.
00:10:50What?
00:10:51The mayor's daughter-in-law?
00:10:55After you and the mayor's son tie the knot,
00:10:57we'll send...
00:10:58Pat to a nursing home far, far away.
00:11:05She takes up too much space here.
00:11:07So there's the bride for my son.
00:11:09Well, son,
00:11:19she's the girl you said you liked, right?
00:11:21A real virgin.
00:11:23Just like me.
00:11:24All the other girls,
00:11:25they always run away.
00:11:27But not you.
00:11:29You'll be my first.
00:11:31Time to make you mine.
00:11:32No, no!
00:11:33Don't touch me!
00:11:44No, no!
00:11:45Don't touch me!
00:11:47You can't say no to me!
00:11:48My dad owns this town.
00:11:49Nobody says no to me.
00:11:52Look at you,
00:11:52acting so high and mighty.
00:11:55You're still selling your blood,
00:11:56aren't you?
00:11:56Just for a few pennies.
00:11:59We offer you a way out of poverty,
00:12:02and this is the way you repay us.
00:12:04Do you know how rich and powerful the mayor is?
00:12:07Mom's gonna die
00:12:08because you're too proud
00:12:10to spread your legs for the mayor's son.
00:12:12I'm not going to marry him.
00:12:15Don't you see, Grace?
00:12:16William and I are doing this for you and Mom.
00:12:19You should be grateful.
00:12:21Half a million,
00:12:22and she's all yours tonight.
00:12:24Steep price for an orphan.
00:12:25I don't care, Dad!
00:12:27You promised me I can have her,
00:12:28and I want her!
00:12:30Give them what they want.
00:12:31You want a grandson or not,
00:12:33she can work for us.
00:12:34That's the man.
00:12:35Ah!
00:12:40Pleasure doing business with you, sir.
00:12:42My sister's all yours.
00:12:46No!
00:12:47No!
00:12:47No!
00:12:48No, Mom!
00:12:49Mom, please!
00:12:50Don't take me, Mom!
00:12:56No one sells my daughter.
00:13:09No one sells my daughter.
00:13:14Get away from my daughter!
00:13:25Oh, Mom!
00:13:31Thank God you're awake!
00:13:33Don't scare us like that again, okay?
00:13:36I didn't know what to do!
00:13:37Yeah, Mom.
00:13:38We're so happy to have you back.
00:13:40It looks like you know exactly what you're doing.
00:13:48Selling the house.
00:13:49No, Mom.
00:13:50You have the wrong idea.
00:13:52We were selling the house to help pay for your treatment.
00:13:55Treatment?
00:13:56You didn't even want to pay for Mom's surgery.
00:13:58Don't listen to Grace's lies, Mom.
00:14:01William and I have been working day and night to pay for your surgery.
00:14:05No, that's not true.
00:14:06I was selling my blood to pay back...
00:14:08Grace, I know you seduced the mayor's son and are about to marry into a powerful family,
00:14:12but that doesn't mean you can lie to Mom's face.
00:14:15Grace was trying to marry into the mayor's family so she didn't have to take care of you.
00:14:19Rose and I had no choice but to sell the house.
00:14:20Just because I had my eyes closed doesn't mean that I didn't hear everything you said.
00:14:30And not only were you trying to just sell the house,
00:14:32but you were trying to sell your sister, Grace, as well!
00:14:38Mom, I'm so glad you're awake.
00:14:40I didn't know what else to do.
00:14:43Oh, my sweet daughter.
00:14:45I heard everything.
00:14:47Everything you did to keep me safe.
00:14:49Your mother will make these ingrits pay for what they did to you.
00:14:59This...
00:15:00This is just a silly house.
00:15:03And I would have given it to you without a second thought.
00:15:07But now, after the stunt that you two pulled,
00:15:10you won't get anything.
00:15:19Well, William and I would have considered looking after you if you were even moderately wealthy.
00:15:26But you're just poor.
00:15:28Do you know how goddamn embarrassing it is to call your mother?
00:15:35Embarrassing?
00:15:36When we were orphans, nobody wanted us.
00:15:39Mom gave us a home.
00:15:40She saved us.
00:15:41I didn't choose the shitty life she offered us.
00:15:47Poor people shouldn't drag others into their suffering.
00:15:51That's not fair.
00:15:53Take it back.
00:15:53You see this, you old hag?
00:15:58We already have your signature and fingerprint on the inheritance letter.
00:16:02It's too late to stop us now.
00:16:05You're not getting anything from me.
00:16:07Not a single cent.
00:16:12Grace, do you have my phone?
00:16:15Oh, Grace.
00:16:17This is your mom's phone.
00:16:18You can keep it for now.
00:16:19Doctor, this phone is really nice.
00:16:22Are you sure it belongs to my mom?
00:16:24We took it from her pocket right before the surgery.
00:16:38Miss Miller.
00:16:43Alexander.
00:16:44It's me.
00:16:49My mother was in danger.
00:16:52Thanks to her adopted daughter, Grace.
00:16:54She's safe in a small town.
00:16:55I'm heading over there to bring her back home.
00:16:57Someone who dares to threaten Miss Miller must be insane.
00:17:00Let us come with you, sir.
00:17:01We should all be there to welcome her back.
00:17:03And we'll show those who crossed her who's boss.
00:17:10Sir, I've sent John Smith to check on your mother.
00:17:13Make sure he keeps her safe until I get there.
00:17:15These people are going to regret her for crossing her.
00:17:17Yes, sir.
00:17:17Come to mother.
00:17:18Wait, she has another son?
00:17:21No idea who the guy is.
00:17:22Wonder where she found this guy.
00:17:24Probably fished him out of a dumpster.
00:17:26Bet he's just as pathetic as she is.
00:17:28Another worthless charity case.
00:17:30Stop it.
00:17:32That's your brother you're talking about.
00:17:34Relax, Grace.
00:17:37Soon they'll be on their knees, begging for forgiveness.
00:17:40Who do you think you are, you old hag?
00:17:42Some kind of superhero?
00:17:43The mayor is related to Mr. Smith.
00:17:46The man who transformed the Sterling Corp into the Phoenix Group's biggest subsidiary.
00:17:52He can make any person disappear.
00:17:54And guess what?
00:17:56They just called them about Gregory's weddings.
00:17:58He should be here at any moment.
00:18:00Mr. Smith?
00:18:01You mean John?
00:18:03Speaking as if she knows him personally.
00:18:05The man controls billions with a nerve on this woman.
00:18:09Let me explain something to you.
00:18:11Phoenix Group isn't just some company.
00:18:14They own everything.
00:18:16They're untouchable gods among men.
00:18:20She probably thinks Phoenix Group is just some bird-watching club.
00:18:25Mark my words.
00:18:27You'll all be on your knees, begging for mercy.
00:18:30And when John Smith gets here, he's going to be trembling in his boots.
00:18:36Mr. Smith has important business to attend to.
00:18:50Starting now, all roads headed to the town are closed off.
00:18:54I heard Mr. Smith has barely been seen in public ever since Ms. Miller went into hiding.
00:18:58Wow.
00:18:59If Mr. Smith is going out like this, he must be doing business with a really important person.
00:19:03I never thought I'd ever meet Ms. Miller in person.
00:19:06This is a once-in-a-lifetime chance.
00:19:09She's the pride of the city.
00:19:11But, sir, we don't even have a photo of her.
00:19:13We don't know what she looks like.
00:19:14I have other matters to attend to in that town anyway.
00:19:17Let's move out.
00:19:18We'll grab the photo later.
00:19:23Wait, you think Mr. Smith will kneel before someone like you?
00:19:28Oh, don't make me laugh.
00:19:30Oh, she's completely delusional.
00:19:33Enough.
00:19:35I won't stand here and let you insult my mother like this.
00:19:40Know your place and shut up, you stupid bitch.
00:19:50Lay a hand on my daughter one more time, and I'll make sure you don't use that hand again.
00:19:55What's wrong?
00:19:57Our money not good enough for you?
00:20:00Fine.
00:20:01Name your price.
00:20:03Everything has one.
00:20:05Just like you.
00:20:06Oh, how amusing.
00:20:11You think that you can...
00:20:11You can buy me off.
00:20:13I would love to see you try.
00:20:16Hmm.
00:20:16Word is, Miss Miller has an adoptive daughter, Grace, that's been taking care of her.
00:20:24Without her, we might not see Miss Miller again.
00:20:27This Grace Miller must be someone special.
00:20:29There aren't a lot of daughters like her out there.
00:20:31It's me.
00:20:34Make sure to arrange an exceptional gift for Miss Miller.
00:20:38And prepare something special for Grace Miller.
00:20:40Only the best for the girl that saved Miss Miller.
00:20:45Sir, John Smith should be arriving to town any moment now.
00:20:48The signal there is terrible.
00:20:50I just sent him a photo of Miss Miller.
00:20:51He should be receiving it shortly.
00:20:53Look, my mother likes to keep low profile.
00:20:56So I want you to tell our people to shut down the entire neighborhood.
00:20:58Okay?
00:20:59I don't want anyone seeing my mother.
00:21:00Yes, sir.
00:21:02You think that you can buy me?
00:21:04Well, just look at you.
00:21:06Wearing those rags, living in this filthy place.
00:21:10And you have the nerve to reject my son.
00:21:13People like you should be on your knees, kissing our feet.
00:21:17Thanking us for the chance at a better life.
00:21:21Your son is a worthless parasite that vultures would refuse to eat.
00:21:30How dare you speak that way about my son?
00:21:37I was abandoned as a child.
00:21:49When I was 15 years old, my mom took me in and gave me a home.
00:21:55You may just see her as another nobody.
00:21:58Working lowly jobs with little money.
00:22:01But to me, she's the greatest mom in the world.
00:22:05She's my everything.
00:22:07And I'm not just going to stand here and let you humiliate her.
00:22:10Boo-hoo.
00:22:11I'm in tears.
00:22:13Who cares if we insult this old hag?
00:22:15My husband is the mayor.
00:22:17And we can do anything we want, as a matter of fact.
00:22:21My son can take you right here.
00:22:23And right now, if he wants.
00:22:27I'm going to teach my wife some manners.
00:22:30No, no, no, stay back, please.
00:22:32You will all regret this.
00:22:34No, no, no, no.
00:22:41Holy shit.
00:22:46Is that John Smith?
00:22:48The mayor's got some family problems from what I hear.
00:22:51And he's probably just here to help them out.
00:22:54I could assure you the consequences for spreading unverified rumors in front of Mr. Smith are serious.
00:23:09Mr. Smith, please let us go.
00:23:11Please, sir, let us go.
00:23:12We had nothing to do with this.
00:23:13You should be talking to that family over there who rejected the mayor's son.
00:23:18You're lying.
00:23:20Who dare reject Gregory Warren?
00:23:22Don't they know he's related to Mr. Smith?
00:23:24We're not lying, sir.
00:23:25You can see for yourself.
00:23:27Our house is at the end of this road.
00:23:28All right.
00:23:30Looks like I'll have to take care of this myself.
00:23:33Don't let go of me.
00:23:34Stop it.
00:23:43Hit her again, mother.
00:23:44We offer you everything, and you choose to stay in this filth?
00:23:48Fine.
00:23:49Stay here and rot.
00:23:51My mother's love means everything to me.
00:23:54I'd rather stay in poverty by her side than live in a cage without her.
00:23:59Too bad that's not your decision to make.
00:24:04Too bad that's not your decision to make.
00:24:07Mr. Smith?
00:24:08He actually came.
00:24:09Only the famous John Smith could arrive in such style.
00:24:13Mr. Smith, thank you for coming.
00:24:15What's going on here?
00:24:16You're related to someone like me.
00:24:18Finding your son a wife should be the easiest thing in the world.
00:24:21It's these arrogant fools, sir.
00:24:23They have no idea the privilege they're throwing away.
00:24:26And Mr. Smith, they even had the audacity to threaten you.
00:24:30Said you would tremble before him.
00:24:31What?
00:24:32Someone dare threaten the John Smith?
00:24:35The head of Phoenix Group's most powerful subsidiary?
00:24:39The man that no one crosses.
00:24:42Yes, it's that woman right over there.
00:24:45Hello, John.
00:24:53Why does her voice sound so familiar?
00:24:57Just now, Phoenix Group's CEO, Mary Miller, one of the most powerful figures in our city,
00:25:03has relinquished full control of the company to her son.
00:25:08Mary, do you have anything to say?
00:25:10Anything to say at all, Mary, about the transition of power?
00:25:13Ms. Miller.
00:25:14Ms. Miller.
00:25:17Ms. Miller, I owe everything to you.
00:25:20You started Sterling Corps and gave me my position.
00:25:23If you're really planning on leaving Phoenix Group, please, at least, let me drive you home.
00:25:30If you really want to show your gratitude, take good care of Sterling Group.
00:25:34I'm counting on you.
00:25:40How dare you use Mr. Smith's first name?
00:25:43Keep our boss's name out of your mouth or else I'll...
00:25:45Wait!
00:25:50You keep our boss's name out of your mouth or else I'll...
00:25:53Wait!
00:25:55You.
00:25:56You know who I am.
00:25:57Mr. Smith, listen to this filth trying to pretend she knows you.
00:26:01Yes.
00:26:02I do know you, John.
00:26:05How dare you address Mr. Smith like that?
00:26:08Trash like you should show respect.
00:26:11Mr. Smith, this is just some old woman who works as a cheap laborer at the orphanage nearby.
00:26:17A day laborer?
00:26:18I must have mistaken her for someone else.
00:26:20What happened to all your threats?
00:26:22Weren't you just saying how Mr. Smith would tremble and fall to his knees?
00:26:26You said that?
00:26:27I did.
00:26:28Who do you think you are, huh?
00:26:30Don't touch my mom.
00:26:34Oh, you want to be brave too?
00:26:36Huh?
00:26:38Mrs. Smith, it's a message from Mr. Miller.
00:26:41It's a photo of Mrs. Miller.
00:26:47It's a photo of Mrs. Miller.
00:26:49You mean Miss Miller?
00:26:51Yeah.
00:26:51She's Phoenix Group's CEO.
00:26:54They say she controls all the city.
00:26:56But she disappeared years ago when she gave control to her son when he turned 18.
00:27:01We could have been living the high life if she had adopted us instead of being stuck with this worthless woman.
00:27:07Mr. Smith, you see, everything's ready for the wedding.
00:27:10If you could just help us convince the bride.
00:27:13Mrs. Miller is here in town somewhere.
00:27:15I have to find and greet her.
00:27:17I can't let this petty situation get in the way.
00:27:19Take her to the church.
00:27:21No, let me go.
00:27:22I won't marry him.
00:27:23I need to stay with my mom.
00:27:25Try to get past me.
00:27:26See how that works.
00:27:32Try to get past me.
00:27:34See how that worked out for you.
00:27:35Move aside, ma'am.
00:27:36Mr. Smith is due to welcome back the CEO of Phoenix Group.
00:27:41If you and your daughter get in the way, you'll pay the price.
00:27:46So, this is how you run Sterling Group now.
00:27:50Torment the weak.
00:27:53Throw your weight around.
00:27:54Shut your damn mouth.
00:27:56Stripper.
00:27:58Let her mother watch what happens to people who defy me.
00:28:01Ha, ha, ha.
00:28:03You are making your last mistake.
00:28:06You think I'm scared of some empty threats from an old hag in a wheelchair?
00:28:11What are you going to do about it?
00:28:12No, no, no, no.
00:28:15Ha!
00:28:25Huh.
00:28:43How could I be so foolish?
00:28:45Miss Miller, the CEO of Phoenix Group, is right in front of my eyes.
00:28:50Mr. Smith is about to teach this old woman a lesson that she should never open her mouth.
00:28:55Just watch.
00:28:56Well, that'll teach you to disrespect someone like Mr. Smith.
00:28:59Crawl on the ground and beg for forgiveness, you pathetic old hag.
00:29:03That's right.
00:29:04Go on and grovel before he destroys you.
00:29:07I have no need to apologize.
00:29:10I meant every word that I said.
00:29:12I said that when John Smith gets here, he will tremble and fall to his knees and that is exactly what will happen.
00:29:20What planet are you even living on?
00:29:24You're not just a beggar.
00:29:26You're a complete lunatic.
00:29:28Come on and break.
00:29:42Let's go.
00:29:44Sir, what's the matter?
00:30:02On your knees.
00:30:04What, sir?
00:30:04She's just somebody else.
00:30:05I said on your knees!
00:30:12Are you all deaf?
00:30:14Get on your knees!
00:30:17Mr. Smith, what's this all about?
00:30:19Are you not feeling well?
00:30:21What did this brain-dead bitch do to him?
00:30:24Get him away before whatever's riding in her head spreads!
00:30:28Mr. Smith, what are you doing?
00:30:32I'm warning you.
00:30:33Do not disrespect this woman.
00:30:36She is.
00:30:38She is.
00:30:39She is nothing but a pathetic waste of space.
00:30:42She can't even stand on her own two feet.
00:30:45Her brain is riding away and she doesn't have a penny to her name.
00:30:48Are you seriously going to defend this old witch?
00:30:54Looks like you remember me now, John.
00:30:58Why don't you tell everyone else who I am?
00:31:01Go ahead.
00:31:04Address him as Mr. Smith, you disrespectful old hag.
00:31:10Mr. Smith, we never wanted her as her mother.
00:31:13We've already cut ties with this woman.
00:31:15We don't support her behavior at all.
00:31:18Please, don't punish us for her actions.
00:31:22I understand you're upset, Mr. Smith.
00:31:24Let me remove this worthless woman.
00:31:31Please!
00:31:32All of you!
00:31:34Mr. Smith, why are you protecting her?
00:31:37She's beneath you.
00:31:38Mr. Smith, please.
00:31:40We're family.
00:31:41Family?
00:31:42You're just distant relatives.
00:31:45The only reason I maintain contact with you is because someone told me to never forget where I came from.
00:31:50And that someone was her.
00:31:54She helped me build Sterling Core for nothing.
00:32:03John, return my daughter to me.
00:32:06And we'll discuss your actions later.
00:32:09Yes, Miss Miller.
00:32:09Okay.
00:32:12No one will ever hurt you again.
00:32:26Okay?
00:32:28Who the hell are you?
00:32:37On behalf of Sterling Core,
00:32:39I formally welcome you back to Phoenix Street.
00:32:42Welcome back, boss.
00:32:45She's the CEO of Phoenix Group.
00:32:53Phoenix Group CEO.
00:32:55Huh.
00:32:56That's impossible.
00:32:57There must be some mistake.
00:32:58This old hack doesn't even have money.
00:33:00Just look at her.
00:33:01Yeah.
00:33:02The richest CEO in the country wearing bargain bin clothes,
00:33:06working at an orphanage,
00:33:07and living in this dump.
00:33:08Please.
00:33:09Do you even hear yourself?
00:33:11If it wasn't for Miss Miller living a modest life,
00:33:14you'd still be orphans,
00:33:15you ungrateful brats.
00:33:19And you,
00:33:20you must be the adoptive daughter who saved Miss Miller.
00:33:23Don't be afraid.
00:33:25You're Miss Miller's daughter,
00:33:27and the only one who protected her.
00:33:28And now, Sterling Core will protect you.
00:33:30If anyone tries to harm you,
00:33:33they'll pay the price.
00:33:34I just want to stay with my mom and take care of her.
00:33:38Please.
00:33:39Don't let them force me to marry this man.
00:33:45My sweet girl.
00:33:48No way!
00:33:49My parents paid good money for you,
00:33:51so you belong to me now.
00:33:52What?
00:33:52Your mother can run into nursing home for all I care.
00:33:55Nobody touches my daughter.
00:33:57John, break his wrist.
00:34:00John, break his wrist.
00:34:07Mr. Smith, please don't do this.
00:34:09Please, he's our only son.
00:34:11Please, he's all we've got.
00:34:13You love your son like I love my daughter,
00:34:15and yet you let him terrorize Grace,
00:34:19and you didn't say anything.
00:34:21And now you want to apologize?
00:34:24It's too late.
00:34:25But your daughter is fine.
00:34:27Do you really have to do this?
00:34:29If I let this go today,
00:34:31then you'll keep terrorizing those weaker than you,
00:34:34like my daughter.
00:34:35So today there will be a lesson for not only your son,
00:34:38but for everyone else.
00:34:40Mark my words.
00:34:42Who do you think you are
00:34:44barking at my parents and brother?
00:34:46Move or I'll end you all.
00:34:51Brittany, my sweet daughter.
00:34:53Thank God you're here.
00:34:55Don't worry, Dad.
00:34:56I've got this under control.
00:34:58Did you forget?
00:35:00My boyfriend is Alexander Miller's assistant.
00:35:04So what, young lady?
00:35:06And this is Alexander's mother, Miss Miller,
00:35:09CEO of Phoenix Group.
00:35:10Oh, she is not the CEO of Phoenix Group.
00:35:14She's a fraud.
00:35:18What are you talking about?
00:35:20Just because you're dating Alexander's lapdog
00:35:22doesn't mean you can run your mouth and spread lies.
00:35:24Lies?
00:35:25I've seen the Phoenix Group CEO with my own two eyes.
00:35:29She got me a present for my birthday.
00:35:31Sean, what's wrong?
00:35:41Today's my girlfriend's birthday,
00:35:42and she wants me to invite Miss Mary Miller to her party.
00:35:47What?
00:35:48She's so secluded,
00:35:49even her own son can't see her whenever he wants.
00:35:53How do you expect her to agree to meet your girlfriend?
00:35:55Wait, what if you pretend to be her?
00:36:01Nobody even knows what she looks like outside of the board anyway.
00:36:05Pretend to be CEO for my girlfriend's birthday party,
00:36:09and I'll get working on that promotion that you've been wanting for years.
00:36:11Oh, yeah?
00:36:17Hmm. Fine.
00:36:19I'll do it.
00:36:21Young lady,
00:36:23I don't know who your family is,
00:36:25but you better believe that I could destroy them with one phone call.
00:36:30Everyone here sees that you're just broke and delusional.
00:36:35Cut the act, you widowed hag!
00:36:36Don't say I didn't warn you.
00:36:41I'm going to have my boyfriend expose you for the fraud you really are.
00:36:55Brittany.
00:36:58I'm on my way.
00:36:59My mother's coming back to the Phoenix group today,
00:37:01so I want you guys to get her something absolutely spectacular, okay?
00:37:04It's time to show this city who's really been behind our success.
00:37:08Also, I want you to get something for that girl.
00:37:10The one that she adopted,
00:37:12that's been taking care of her.
00:37:13She's my sister now,
00:37:14so get her something grand as well.
00:37:19Boss,
00:37:19is everything okay?
00:37:21I need you to do something for me.
00:37:23It's about Brittany.
00:37:24Someone causing your girlfriend trouble?
00:37:26Don't worry.
00:37:27I'll handle it.
00:37:28I'll make them beg for mercy for what they've done.
00:37:30Take her right here.
00:37:32Gotta handle something for Sean.
00:37:34Yes, sir.
00:37:39Hear that?
00:37:40My daughter's boyfriend is Alexander Miller's assistant.
00:37:44He's one of Phoenix group's rising stars.
00:37:46You picked the wrong people to mess with.
00:37:48You're done for.
00:37:50Thank God we cut ties with you, crazy old witch.
00:37:53You almost gave me a heart attack, you old hag.
00:37:56Turns out you were a fraud all along.
00:37:58You!
00:37:58Who would have thought our daughter would end up dating Alexander's right-hand man?
00:38:05When her boyfriend gets here,
00:38:07we're gonna strip you and your daughter naked
00:38:10and throw you into the streets.
00:38:12Let everyone see how we treat liars like you.
00:38:15I'm afraid you're in for quite a disappointment.
00:38:18Still acting tough?
00:38:20You really are shameless!
00:38:22Mom.
00:38:23John, handle this right now.
00:38:25She's scaring my daughter.
00:38:28Yes, Miss Miller.
00:38:33Oh!
00:38:37I'm sorry.
00:38:38Oh, I'm sorry.
00:38:40Back off, John!
00:38:42You're just some low-level manager.
00:38:44My boyfriend will destroy your career if you touch me!
00:38:49Did you just hit me?
00:38:54Not bad for an old hag.
00:38:56I get it now, John.
00:38:57You're siding with this hag because she crawled into your bed.
00:39:00You disgusting little...
00:39:02Oh, did I hurt a nerve?
00:39:05Just wait until my boyfriend gets here.
00:39:08I'm going to tell him that you hit me for this old slut.
00:39:11You're dead!
00:39:12You really think your boyfriend is that important to me?
00:39:19He's nothing.
00:39:20But he doesn't even deserve to clean the dirt off my shoes.
00:39:25Nobody insults Mr. Sean Parker and lives to talk about it!
00:39:29Mike?
00:39:31Why are you alone?
00:39:32Where's Sean?
00:39:32Relax, Miss.
00:39:34Sean and Miss Miller have more important matters than dealing with trash.
00:39:38So, who's been causing trouble for my boss's girlfriend?
00:39:41It was this piece of garbage right here.
00:39:44She said that Mr. Sean Parker didn't deserve to clean the dirt off her shoes.
00:39:49And she's pretending to be the CEO of Phoenix Group, Ms. Miller!
00:39:55Ms. Miller?
00:39:59Ms. Miller, old hag.
00:40:02You've got some nerve, pretending to be Ms. Miller.
00:40:05Open your eyes.
00:40:07She is Ms. Miller.
00:40:08Ms. Miller.
00:40:09Right, and I'm the Queen of England.
00:40:11Tell you what.
00:40:14If she's really the CEO, I'll tattoo fool on my forehead.
00:40:18Nice performance, John.
00:40:21Good thing I met the real CEO at Brittany's birthday party, or I might have fallen for your little act.
00:40:27I don't know who you think you met, but that was not the CEO.
00:40:31If my mom really lied, it was to protect me from being forced to marry the mayor's son.
00:40:35But, if she isn't the CEO of Phoenix Group, then I apologize.
00:40:41Just please, don't hurt my mother.
00:40:45Well, what do we have here?
00:40:47Quite the pretty little thing.
00:40:50Since you're such a good daughter, I'll let this slide.
00:40:54Under one condition.
00:40:58Marry the mayor's son.
00:41:00And I'll forgive your mother's lies.
00:41:05Grace, don't listen to this fool.
00:41:09Mom.
00:41:11I never thought that I would have a real family.
00:41:15And then you adopted me.
00:41:18You gave me everything.
00:41:21Love, protection, a life.
00:41:25I owe you everything.
00:41:27So if...
00:41:30So if marrying the mayor's son will protect you...
00:41:34Then I'll do it.
00:41:41Back off, while you still can.
00:41:43If you hurt Grace or cross Miss Miller, you'll pay the price.
00:41:47Look at you, John.
00:41:48Completely entangled in this fraud's spell.
00:41:51You know what's gonna happen today, John?
00:41:53Huh?
00:41:53The real Miss Miller is returning to Phoenix Group.
00:41:57When Alexander finds out you're helping some imposter, you're finished.
00:42:04Miss Miller's returning to Phoenix Group today?
00:42:07With your boyfriend being Mr. Miller's assistant, surely you'll meet Miss Miller.
00:42:12Oh, please, let me come with you.
00:42:15I'd do anything to see Miss Miller.
00:42:18Miss Miller is a very private person.
00:42:22Most employees haven't even seen her.
00:42:24Well, I guess I could let you see her from a distance.
00:42:29Now then, time to deal with our...
00:42:33little problem.
00:42:35Can't have these frauds causing trouble on such an important day.
00:42:38You fool!
00:42:42This woman is the real CEO of Phoenix Group.
00:42:45Mr. Miller sent me her photo.
00:42:47It's right here.
00:42:51It's right here.
00:42:56A photo?
00:42:57That can't prove anything.
00:42:58Anyone could fake that using AI.
00:43:00And with AI these days, you can make any photo you want.
00:43:04You can't fool us.
00:43:05Just look at her.
00:43:06She's just a pathetic nothing.
00:43:09Faking photos to play CEO?
00:43:11God, I've never seen anyone so desperate.
00:43:14What happened to all that talk about honesty and respect as we grew up, Mom?
00:43:19Or does that not apply to an old hag like you?
00:43:22You are good-looking.
00:43:24For your age.
00:43:26No wonder you've got John wrapped around your finger, you witch.
00:43:30Shut your damn mouth.
00:43:31Stay away from her, you monster.
00:43:33Good thing we've got some time on our hands anyway.
00:43:40And, bloke, single moms are my favorite kind of thing.
00:43:44A feisty one, huh?
00:43:49Just the way I like it.
00:43:50You sure this is the right location?
00:44:06The coordinates led us here, sir.
00:44:07The mayor will know where she is.
00:44:10This is perfect.
00:44:11The mayor is about to see his future son-in-law working right beside the great Alexander Miller.
00:44:16This couldn't be better.
00:44:17Well, then what are we waiting for?
00:44:19Let's go find the mayor.
00:44:21Yes, sir.
00:44:27Um, this is private property.
00:44:29You can't just-
00:44:30That is Alexander Miller of the Phoenix Group that you're speaking to.
00:44:34Where is the mayor?
00:44:35I need him to find my mother.
00:44:37Alexander Miller?
00:44:39Yes.
00:44:39It is an honor to meet you.
00:44:42We did not expect you to show up at this wedding celebration.
00:44:45Wait a second.
00:44:46The wedding?
00:44:48Yes, the mayor's son's getting married.
00:44:50We didn't realize someone of your VIP status would be here.
00:44:54I didn't realize the mayor had such great connection.
00:44:56Right?
00:44:57Oh, that old woman will now regret not marrying her daughter into the mayor's family.
00:45:03Can you believe that?
00:45:04That dead broke vegetable?
00:45:06She acts all high and mighty.
00:45:08But you know what?
00:45:09That girl's not even really her daughter.
00:45:11She's adopted.
00:45:13That woman.
00:45:15Is she a single mother to three orphans?
00:45:18That's her, all right.
00:45:19But don't worry, sir, okay?
00:45:21The mayor has this town under control.
00:45:23And you know what?
00:45:24He's going to teach that old hat.
00:45:28What did you just call her?
00:45:30That woman you just insulted is my mother.
00:45:34The CEO of the Phoenix Group.
00:45:37CEO of the Phoenix Group?
00:45:39That can't be.
00:45:41Pick that piece of shit up and have him take us to my mother.
00:45:44Yes, sir.
00:45:50You will regret every word that you said about the Miller family.
00:45:53Once Miss Miller comes back, her daughter Grace will be a part of the Phoenix family.
00:45:59If you think the mayor's son can marry some of her stature, you're delusional.
00:46:04I want to meet this mayor myself.
00:46:07The audacity to treat Miss Miller and her daughter like this?
00:46:10Oh, I need to warn them here.
00:46:17Just the way I like it.
00:46:21How dare you talk to Miss Miller like that?
00:46:24Ah!
00:46:28Joe, is she wants a real man now, John?
00:46:30By the time I'm done with her, she won't be moving that wheelchair anymore.
00:46:34Your problem is with me.
00:46:36Sterling Corp protects her on and we will die defending our boss.
00:46:43Must be giving John something real special.
00:46:45Why else would he risk everything with Phoenix Group to back up your pathetic lives?
00:46:49You won't live to see another day.
00:46:52Then I better make the most of now.
00:46:54Please, stop!
00:47:00Everyone, stop!
00:47:03What is it?
00:47:04Can't you see we're busy?
00:47:06That woman you're threatening, she...
00:47:07She...
00:47:08That woman you're threatening, she...
00:47:12She's nothing but an old widow.
00:47:16This is our town.
00:47:17We know what we're doing.
00:47:18Right, especially with Alexander's people on our side.
00:47:22The sky could fall right now and I'm still gonna have my fun with you.
00:47:26Yeah?
00:47:27Well, when it falls, you'll be the first one to crumble.
00:47:31This is Phoenix Group's turf.
00:47:34I'm Sean Parker's right-hand man.
00:47:36Your precious boss should be on your knees before me.
00:47:38Just because you're some assistant's lap dog, it doesn't mean you're untouchable.
00:47:44Why don't you just make the call?
00:47:45Well, then we'll see how untouchable you really are.
00:47:50What's wrong?
00:47:51Are you getting nervous?
00:47:52Who could she possibly call?
00:47:54It's not like she has Alexander on speed dial.
00:47:59Let her make the call.
00:48:01I want to see who this pathetic widow runs to for help.
00:48:06Go ahead.
00:48:07Show us these powerful connections of yours.
00:48:10Stop!
00:48:10Don't let her make the call!
00:48:14Stop!
00:48:14Don't let her make the call!
00:48:16Shut your worthless mouth!
00:48:19You have no right to speak here!
00:48:21Afraid of a little phone call?
00:48:23That's Mike from Phoenix Group.
00:48:26No one in this city dares cross him.
00:48:29But, but, but she's-
00:48:30But, but, but, can't even form a sentence?
00:48:34What, do you think this nobody's gonna call the Alexander Miller?
00:48:38Not another word.
00:48:39You're wasting our time.
00:48:40I need to get ready to meet the real Miss Miller later when she returns to the company.
00:48:45Brittany's right.
00:48:46We're about to welcome back the great Miss Miller.
00:48:49Nothing's changing that.
00:48:51Don't say I didn't give you a chance.
00:48:54Make your call, you fraud.
00:48:55Who's this?
00:49:06My mother?
00:49:13I can't believe they'd do this.
00:49:15Look, Mom, I got this.
00:49:17Don't worry, don't worry.
00:49:18I'm gonna handle this, okay?
00:49:18I know exactly what to do.
00:49:19So, you're this old hag's emergency contact.
00:49:26Guess what?
00:49:27You're screwed.
00:49:28Because my boyfriend is Sean Parker.
00:49:31Mr. Miller's right-hand man.
00:49:34Sean is your boyfriend, huh?
00:49:35Are you deaf or dumb?
00:49:37And how dare you refer to Sean by his first name?
00:49:40He is Alexander Miller's right-hand man.
00:49:43So watch yourself.
00:49:44Brittany, you're speaking to Alexander Miller himself.
00:49:47Well, you're gonna find out soon enough.
00:49:49My boyfriend is Alexander Miller's man.
00:49:52He is going to destroy you.
00:49:55What?
00:49:56You want to talk to Mike Hanson?
00:50:02How does your contact know my name?
00:50:04Talk to him.
00:50:06Find out.
00:50:06What happened, Mike?
00:50:08You scared to answer the phone?
00:50:09Shut up!
00:50:10Sean has my back.
00:50:12Why would I be scared of some loser this hag called?
00:50:15Who are you?
00:50:17How the hell do you know my name?
00:50:19The signals are always bad here.
00:50:26We need to get to my mother in five minutes.
00:50:28Let's go.
00:50:28Move.
00:50:28Come on.
00:50:30Yes, sir.
00:50:30Yes, sir.
00:50:33You really had me fooled for a second there.
00:50:36I thought your friend was someone important.
00:50:38Turns out he's just a coward.
00:50:40Couldn't even speak when he heard my voice.
00:50:42Couldn't say a word.
00:50:44Pathetic.
00:50:44Mike scared him speechless.
00:50:47Not so tough now, are you?
00:50:49You were, uh, clever.
00:50:52I'll give you that.
00:50:55I don't know how you managed to tell that friend of yours my name, but, uh, who cares?
00:51:01He's a spineless coward who can't even talk to me, let alone touch me.
00:51:06Stay away from her.
00:51:07Stay away from her.
00:51:23That's right.
00:51:25Keep your lesson.
00:51:25It came from over there.
00:51:54Let's go.
00:51:59The mayor's family is finished.
00:52:10Jane.
00:52:11Should have been a kill shot.
00:52:15You just burnt your last bridge.
00:52:18You will regret this.
00:52:19I'm just punishing a couple troublemakers.
00:52:23Is that a crime?
00:52:26Now.
00:52:27It's just you and me.
00:52:29Don't worry.
00:52:30I can treat you better than John ever could.
00:52:32Do you have another thing here?
00:52:48Yeah.
00:52:50I'm sorry, sweetheart.
00:52:52You know I will always be here to protect you, right?
00:52:55I'm so sorry.
00:52:59You have to go through that.
00:53:02Mom.
00:53:04This time, I'll protect you.
00:53:13Mom.
00:53:14Ah!
00:53:14It's your fault that we're in this mess.
00:53:17Just marry my brother like a good little girl and we'll let your mother go.
00:53:22Yeah.
00:53:22We offered you a better life and this is how you repay us.
00:53:26Some people just need their gratitude beaten into them.
00:53:31Please, I'm begging you.
00:53:32Don't hurt my mom.
00:53:34Let her go and I'll marry Gregory.
00:53:36I swear.
00:53:37Well, that's better.
00:53:41Ew.
00:53:41Ugh.
00:53:50You've had your fun.
00:53:52Wrap it up.
00:53:54Such a shame, hmm?
00:53:56I was just getting started.
00:53:57When I'm done with you, you're going to regret you were ever born.
00:54:02Still making threats?
00:54:03An old hag like you should be grateful I even want to touch you.
00:54:07If Brittany hadn't interrupted, we'd be having some real fun right now.
00:54:15Having fun with who?
00:54:16Who is he?
00:54:35That's some entrance.
00:54:36Look at those clothes.
00:54:38Must be connected to the mayor.
00:54:41Oh, my sweetheart.
00:54:42I don't.
00:54:53Mom.
00:54:54Is...
00:54:55Is that really Miss Miller?
00:54:58You're at quit the entourage, baby.
00:55:00All this backup, just your little old knee?
00:55:03Brittany, you don't understand.
00:55:05This is, um...
00:55:06Alexander Miller.
00:55:07I didn't think you'd come here yourself.
00:55:09Alexander who?
00:55:11Alexander Miller?
00:55:13That's Alexander Miller?
00:55:15Miss Miller's son?
00:55:21Shit.
00:55:22That's Alexander Miller?
00:55:24He's even dreamier in person.
00:55:26Sir, that woman is delusional.
00:55:30She claims she's your mother, the CEO of Phoenix Crew.
00:55:33Sir, it's my son's wedding today.
00:55:37We would be honored if you could attend the reception.
00:55:39After you meet with the real Miss Miller.
00:55:43It's an honor to meet you, sir.
00:55:45I'm Sean's girlfriend, the mayor's daughter.
00:55:47You can call me Brittany.
00:55:49If you need anything in this town, my family is at your service.
00:55:52Yes.
00:55:55Brittany, shut up.
00:55:57What?
00:55:58It's not every day you meet the Alexander Miller.
00:56:01Also, think about it.
00:56:03If Miss Miller comes to my brother's wedding party, too,
00:56:06we'll be the talk of the town.
00:56:08If you want to invite my mother to your party,
00:56:11then why don't you ask her yourself?
00:56:12Oh, what a brilliant idea.
00:56:15If you would be so kind as to lead us to her.
00:56:17There's no need for that.
00:56:19My mother is here right now.
00:56:21Now.
00:56:26Where is she?
00:56:31Sir, are you playing some kind of trick on us?
00:56:35I don't see Miss Miller anywhere.
00:56:37I would certainly recognize her if she was in my town.
00:56:40Well, of course you would.
00:56:42Nothing happens here without the mayor knowing about it.
00:56:44Are you suggesting I wouldn't recognize my own mother?
00:56:48If what you're saying is true,
00:56:53when did she come to our town?
00:56:55Fifteen years ago.
00:56:56My mother came here to live in seclusion
00:56:59after she stepped down as the Phoenix CEO.
00:57:03Fifteen years ago?
00:57:05No, that's not possible.
00:57:13I'm so sorry it took so long, mother.
00:57:18Come here, my son.
00:57:21You've gotten so old.
00:57:22Miss, I missed you.
00:57:27You're a beautiful man now.
00:57:37Phoenix Group CEO?
00:57:40Impossible.
00:57:40She's really Miss Miller?
00:57:47Phoenix Group CEO?
00:57:49There has to be some mistake.
00:57:52She's nothing but a filthy woman who works for the orphanage.
00:57:56That fucker could not possibly be the real Miss Miller.
00:58:02Miss Miller, please excuse my girlfriend's disgraceful behavior.
00:58:08I take full responsibility.
00:58:11Punish me as you see fit.
00:58:12Our adoptive mother is the famous Miss Miller?
00:58:19What have we done?
00:58:23One moment, mother.
00:58:25Are you Grace?
00:58:29Take care, mother.
00:58:32Let me handle this.
00:58:32Now it's time for you all to explain yourselves.
00:58:45This is all a misunderstanding.
00:58:52Apologize to my mother.
00:58:53Now.
00:58:57Miss Miller, I beg of you.
00:58:59I'm sorry.
00:59:01I'm so, so sorry.
00:59:02You're only apologizing now because you know who I am.
00:59:06As I said, you would regret being born.
00:59:10Guards, get him out of my sight.
00:59:12Make sure I never see his face in the city again.
00:59:19Sean, if that's the real Miss Miller,
00:59:21then who did you invite to my birthday dinner?
00:59:24Tell her.
00:59:25Tell her she's never really met me.
00:59:27Tell her that I'm the real CEO of Phoenix Group.
00:59:29You thought you actually deserved to see the real Miss Miller?
00:59:40It was just some employee that I paid to pretend.
00:59:43I didn't think you'd be stupid enough to not notice.
00:59:46And now, look at the trouble you've caused.
00:59:51Miss Miller,
00:59:52this worthless girl has caused nothing but trouble.
00:59:55I'll kill her myself if you'll forgive me.
00:59:58Someone like you doesn't even deserve to work at the Phoenix Group.
01:00:02Remove him.
01:00:08Miss Miller,
01:00:09we were wrong.
01:00:12We'll never do anything like this again.
01:00:15Please,
01:00:16have mercy.
01:00:18Forgive us.
01:00:19Just this once.
01:00:20You all tortured people.
01:00:22For years.
01:00:24If I was to forgive you,
01:00:26you would go on and continue to hurt innocent people.
01:00:30Take them away.
01:00:31Deal with them accordingly.
01:00:33Make them away!
01:00:34Make them away!
01:00:35No!
01:00:35No!
01:00:35Where do you think you're going?
01:00:45I am not done with you two.
01:00:49What are you planning on doing with these two?
01:00:52You two wanted this house so badly.
01:00:55Burn it down.
01:00:56You don't deserve it.
01:00:58You heard my mother.
01:00:59Burn it down.
01:01:00Now!
01:01:01Yes, sir!
01:01:01Yes, sir!
01:01:05Mother!
01:01:31Mother, please!
01:01:33For your children, Anna!
01:01:35All these years in seclusion,
01:01:47I gave you everything,
01:01:49and yet all you wanted was for me to die?
01:01:51You've really shown your true colors.
01:01:55And you know what?
01:01:56Now you never have to call me mother again.
01:02:01Mom!
01:02:01Mom!
01:02:02Mom!
01:02:02Mom!
01:02:02Mom!
01:02:05And you!
01:02:06You're not off the hook.
01:02:08I'll deal with you later.
01:02:11Yes, Miss Miller.
01:02:17My dear.
01:02:19Somebody very special I want to introduce you to.
01:02:21Grace.
01:02:23This is my son, Alexander.
01:02:25It's an honor to meet you, sir.
01:02:27Please.
01:02:28You're my sister now.
01:02:30There's no need for formalities.
01:02:32Mother, I've arranged a welcome banquet for you at the Cloud Peak Restaurant.
01:02:36What better occasion to introduce my daughter to the whole world?
01:02:42The future heiress of the Phoenix Group.
01:02:45It's a historical day for the Phoenix Group.
01:02:52The city must know.
01:02:55Our CEO is back.
01:02:57I'll send out the invitations.
01:03:05Is that your boyfriend?
01:03:07The one that was studying abroad?
01:03:09Yes.
01:03:10He promised me when he came back home that he would propose to me.
01:03:15I'm expecting him to pop the question anytime now.
01:03:19That's wonderful.
01:03:20Take the call, but why don't you also invite him to the banquet tonight, okay?
01:03:28Hi.
01:03:28Bob Peak Restaurant.
01:03:31Yeah, I can meet you there.
01:03:36There's, um, actually something important I need to tell you.
01:03:58Who's that beautiful young woman?
01:04:13She must be someone important to be at Phoenix Group's banquet tonight.
01:04:21Nathan!
01:04:22Nathan!
01:04:22Nathan!
01:04:22Nathan!
01:04:28Victoria?
01:04:31Long time no see, bestie.
01:04:37Well, what's going on here?
01:04:40What does it look like?
01:04:43Best friend and I are together now.
01:04:48But, but you promised me you'd give me a ring when you came back.
01:04:53Oh, he did get a ring.
01:04:55Just not for you, loser.
01:04:57I'm shocked to see our son engaged as someone worthy of him.
01:05:03A proper match at last.
01:05:06Unlike you and your useless poor mother who can't possibly help him in his career.
01:05:13That's right.
01:05:14My mother's a secretary at Phoenix Group and she got Nathan the regional manager position at the company.
01:05:19Things change when you have the right connections.
01:05:23Isn't that right, sweetie?
01:05:27So that's why you chose my best friend over me?
01:05:30How could you both do this to me?
01:05:32Shut your mouth.
01:05:36Oh, honey.
01:05:38Save yourself the humiliation and leave.
01:05:40You don't belong here.
01:05:52Everything's set.
01:05:53The city's most powerful leader here to meet Grace.
01:05:55Grace deserves this moment.
01:06:13After tonight, everyone will know that she's the heiress of the Phoenix Group.
01:06:17Wait, what?
01:06:25Someone's causing trouble to my sister.
01:06:27Did you honestly think you could compete with me?
01:06:33You're just the daughter of some poor, crazy woman who can't even walk.
01:06:39And that dress.
01:06:41What'd you do?
01:06:42Steal it?
01:06:43Trash like you could never afford a dress like that.
01:06:46Probably borrowed it to pretend she's not poor.
01:06:49Just like her mother pretending to be someone she's not.
01:06:52Mmm.
01:06:52Let me return it to whatever store you stole it from.
01:07:03Mom.
01:07:13Don't worry, sweetheart.
01:07:16Your mother will always protect you now, okay?
01:07:22How dare you throw wine on my future daughter-in-law?
01:07:29How disgusting.
01:07:31This is why poor people like her have no business at events like this.
01:07:35And who might you be?
01:07:36I'm Nathan's father.
01:07:38Bill Carter.
01:07:40And I am his mother, Helen.
01:07:42So your son is the young man that my daughter was interested in?
01:07:48Just as I suspect.
01:07:51He's not worthy of my daughter.
01:07:53Who are you to talk down to my son like that?
01:07:56Our son is the perfect match any girl could hope for.
01:08:00Oh, really?
01:08:02The three heirs of the largest corporation?
01:08:15Only Phoenix Group is above them.
01:08:17What are they doing here?
01:08:18I'm James Bryan from the Sterling International Group.
01:08:25It's an honor to meet you, Grace.
01:08:27Grace, would you be honored to meet me at the dinner bar sometimes?
01:08:31I would love to take a travel with me when you can.
01:08:34My schedule is completely open.
01:08:36I...
01:08:37Sweetheart.
01:08:39Don't be afraid.
01:08:39You really do deserve someone better.
01:08:44Grace, these are some of the finest young men in the city.
01:08:47And if none of them are to your desire, they're CEOs, they're entrepreneurs,
01:08:52and they're architects eager to meet you.
01:08:55What's going on?
01:08:57Why are all these rich men surrounding trash like you?
01:09:00You pathetic whore!
01:09:01Since when do you know people with real money?
01:09:04You manipulative little slut!
01:09:07What other secrets are you hiding?
01:09:12You think you're good enough to touch my sister?
01:09:17Did you just say sister?
01:09:21I thought you said she was an orphan.
01:09:24How can she be Alexander's sister?
01:09:28Alexander, surely there's been some sort of mistake.
01:09:32And who exactly do you think you are to question me?
01:09:34Alexander, you must be confused.
01:09:39Grace is nothing but a worthless orphan.
01:09:44It's true.
01:09:45She's nothing but trash.
01:09:49She's garbage!
01:09:50Nothing but garbage!
01:09:58Who?
01:10:00Who are you?
01:10:05Since you're so desperate to find out who my daughter is,
01:10:08you, you'll find out soon enough.
01:10:12And you!
01:10:13You will see exactly what you threw away.
01:10:18Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome the CEO of Phoenix Group, Ms. Miller!
01:10:32The CEO of Phoenix Group?
01:10:43I don't know.
01:10:43I don't know.
01:10:44You're a little bit.
01:10:45I don't know.
01:10:45I don't know.
01:10:46I don't know.
01:10:47I don't know.
01:10:47I don't know.
01:10:47I don't know.
01:10:49I don't know.
01:10:49She can't be.
01:10:50She's the CEO of Phoenix Group.
01:10:57Thank you all for coming this evening.
01:11:03During my absence, I worked the hardest, most low-paying job.
01:11:08I wanted to understand the struggle of the less fortunate.
01:11:12And what I ended up finding was something unexpected.
01:11:17I found a daughter with a heart of gold.
01:11:20Tonight, I am proud to introduce the future heiress of the Phoenix Group.
01:11:25You worthless bitch.
01:11:28This is all your fault.
01:11:30You made me betray Grace.
01:11:33Don't blame me because you threw away someone important.
01:11:39Grace, please.
01:11:40I never cared about her.
01:11:41I always loved you.
01:11:43Just give me another chance.
01:11:44I'll prove myself worthy.
01:11:46Alexander.
01:11:54Your sister is both kind and wise.
01:11:57You need to trust that she'll do the right thing.
01:12:03Grace, Victoria deceived us all.
01:12:06Our son truly cares for you.
01:12:08Give him one more chance.
01:12:09Yes, Grace.
01:12:11You and Nathan have history.
01:12:13If you become our daughter-in-law,
01:12:15we'll treat you like our own.
01:12:17When you thought my mom and I were nothing,
01:12:20you treated us like dirt.
01:12:22And then you stood by and watched while Nathan betrayed me
01:12:26and humiliated my mother.
01:12:28Grace, I was wrong.
01:12:29I mean, even my parents see it now.
01:12:32Will never, ever happen again.
01:12:34I swear.
01:12:36You're only sorry because of who I am now.
01:12:39Yes, I once had feelings for you.
01:12:42But that's over.
01:12:43I never want to see you again.
01:12:52You think you're above me now?
01:12:55Pay me 100 million dollars or else
01:13:00everyone finds out how you really became the Phoenix Gruberus.
01:13:02By sleeping with your own adoptive brother.
01:13:11How dare you?
01:13:12That's a lie.
01:13:13Truth doesn't matter.
01:13:15My mother is a PR manager at Phoenix Group.
01:13:18She can forge all the proof we need.
01:13:20The press will eat it up.
01:13:22And I'll back every word of it.
01:13:24After all, I am regional manager at Phoenix Group.
01:13:29Just pay us the money.
01:13:31The Phoenix Group has the money.
01:13:32Or watch your reputation crumble.
01:13:35Is your mother's name Sarah Bell?
01:13:39She's the PR manager for Phoenix Group, right?
01:13:41So what old hag?
01:13:43Oh, wow.
01:13:45She clearly didn't know how to teach you manners.
01:13:50So I guess she's fired.
01:13:52What?
01:13:54You can't do that!
01:13:56You and your two families can take your stuff and get out of the city.
01:14:01You're gonna have a very hard time finding any work here.
01:14:07Please have mercy on my son.
01:14:10He's a foolish boy.
01:14:11He doesn't know what he's doing.
01:14:15Take them away.
01:14:16I do not want to see them in the city again.
01:14:20Yes, Ms. Miller.
01:14:23Wait.
01:14:24No, no, don't touch me!
01:14:26Grace!
01:14:26No, wait!
01:14:27Grace!
01:14:34Sweetheart, don't let his cruelty spoil this evening.
01:14:38This moment, it is yours.
01:14:41They can't hurt me anymore, Mom.
01:14:43Not with you by my side.
01:14:46My sweet daughter.
01:14:48You, you stuck by me when I was sick.
01:14:52And I almost died, and you never gave up on me.
01:14:55And you gave me hope and strength.
01:14:59You gave me so much more.
01:15:01You gave me love when I thought I would never know what that would feel like.
01:15:05And you rescued me and you gave me a family.
01:15:07Tonight, I want everyone to see who you really are.
01:15:17You're kind, compassionate, brilliant, unbreakable.
01:15:21And I mean no one will ever speak down to you again.
01:15:27I don't need the world's approval, Mom.
01:15:29I have everything I could ever want right here.
01:15:33My sweet daughter.
01:15:38Ladies and gentlemen, I have a very important announcement to make.
01:15:41Not only will my mother be coming back.
01:15:47As the CEO, I'm proud to announce as well.
01:15:50But my sister, Grace, will be joining our team at the Phoenix Group.
01:15:55As the youngest, billionaire, heirs.
01:16:14Grace to the Miller family.
01:16:23Grace to the Miller family.
01:16:29Thanks to her, Grace.
