00:00:00Please come back, Mr. Conway.
00:00:05This company needs you.
00:00:07Right now, I'm focused on being Mylar's wife.
00:00:10And he doesn't know who I am.
00:00:11Is this that receptionist wife of yours?
00:00:13She's basically a free housemate.
00:00:15Oh!
00:00:17It's nice to meet you.
00:00:18Kane Hudson, founder of the new energy tech company Ecologics.
00:00:22Don't you forget, our engagement was arranged by your grandfather.
00:00:25I want you to marry me.
00:00:26Well, then it's a good thing I need something from you.
00:00:28Should we trust Claire with our lives?
00:00:33I want Kane to understand that leaving me was a mistake.
00:00:37Milo, I am taking back everything that I've given you.
00:00:41She's definitely piqued my interest.
00:00:44I told you I would take back everything.
00:00:47I'm sorry.
00:00:52Great acting back there.
00:00:53I wasn't acting.
00:00:55I meant everything I said.
00:00:56You're not going to stick at me off my feet every person like that.
00:01:00You're going to be my passenger princess sooner or later.
00:01:03I'll give you the light of the moon.
00:01:15And a ship to sail across the ocean.
00:01:17Come join me soon.
00:01:19I'll be waiting and waiting.
00:01:22But don't make me wait too long.
00:01:25I'll give you the color.
00:01:26Again?
00:01:44Miss Montgomery, we've fallen on hard times at Montgomery Group and I can't shoulder the load alone.
00:01:48We really need you to come back as CEO and take control of everything again.
00:01:52Please come back, Miss Montgomery.
00:01:54The company needs you.
00:01:56I'm sure you are more than capable of riding the ship on your own.
00:02:00Right now I'm focused on being Milo's wife.
00:02:04And he doesn't know who I am yet.
00:02:07I need to stay here and help him fulfill his entrepreneurial dreams.
00:02:12Why not just personally invest a billion dollars in your husband's company?
00:02:16That would solve everything.
00:02:18No.
00:02:19No.
00:02:19He's too proud for that.
00:02:21He'll feel inferior if I reveal my identity.
00:02:27That reminds me.
00:02:28Are you guys all ready for the gala tonight?
00:02:30Yes, ma'am.
00:02:31Necologic CEO Kane Hudson will be there to announce his billion-dollar investment in your husband's research.
00:02:39Good.
00:02:40Oh, and, um, don't ask me again.
00:02:42Oh, and, um, don't ask me again.
00:02:59Oh.
00:03:03Oh, there.
00:03:05Oh, there.
00:03:09A bouquet of roses? She must be the bride from findawife.com.
00:03:16If I can just marry her, Grandpa will finally stop trying to play matchmaker for me.
00:03:25It's nice to meet you.
00:03:27Kane Hudson.
00:03:29Ah, you know the deeds.
00:03:31Stanford grad.
00:03:32Founder of the new energy tech company Ecologics.
00:03:3530 billion dollar net worth.
00:03:37Wait.
00:03:39That's Kane?
00:03:41He's actually kinda hot.
00:03:43Claire.
00:03:44No degree.
00:03:45Front desk reception at this hotel makes 16 dollars an hour.
00:03:50You work at the front desk here?
00:03:53Is there something wrong with that?
00:03:55Whatever.
00:03:56As long as it stops my grandpa from nagging me, I'll marry anything with a heart.
00:04:01Oh, come on.
00:04:03Let's go tie the knot.
00:04:05Tie the knot?
00:04:06As in, you and me.
00:04:12Well, if we go right now to the clerk's office, I should be able to make it for tonight's gala.
00:04:19Look, whatever this is, it's not happening.
00:04:23I'm married.
00:04:25Happily, I might add.
00:04:27Wait, am I not paying you enough?
00:04:31Fine.
00:04:32If you promise to marry me, I'll transfer a million dollars into your bank account.
00:04:38Right now.
00:04:39That kind of money means that.
00:04:40That kind of money means that.
00:04:41What's this�, lads?
00:04:42lads?
00:04:43lads?
00:04:44lads?
00:04:45lads?
00:04:46Boss!
00:04:47We're in deep shit.
00:04:48A war just broke out overseas, and one of our top suppliers has cut off all our exports.
00:04:52There will be huge losses if we can't deliver our new energy products on time.
00:04:57Okay, I want you to resell all of our current money-making projects at a low price.
00:05:02And I want you to buy all the materials at a high cost from other companies.
00:05:05Even if we don't make any money, we have to deliver on time.
00:05:09Hold up.
00:05:12I just got word that in about 10 minutes,
00:05:17multiple countries will be announcing the discovery of new, first-class raw materials.
00:05:23Soon you'll have both cheap and high-quality materials to use.
00:05:27And where would a hotel receptionist get their hands on this highly classified information?
00:05:33Well, I guess you'll just have to wait 10 minutes and find out.
00:05:38Scratch what I just said. We'll reassess in 10 minutes.
00:05:42If I lose money on this, you're going to wish you kept that mouth shut.
00:05:47Well, then it's a good thing I need something from you.
00:05:50Otherwise, I'd just laugh at your company's downfall.
00:06:01Claire, oh my god. I have some good news for you.
00:06:05Hit me.
00:06:06Milo booked the most expensive suite in the entire hotel.
00:06:09He asked me to decorate the floor with roses and decorate the entire room with candles.
00:06:14I'm telling you, you have a surprise waiting.
00:06:17He remembered our three-year anniversary.
00:06:21What's the room number?
00:06:22The check-up time on this room is 11.30.
00:06:36Why didn't he invite me up sooner?
00:06:40Maybe he's still asleep?
00:06:43I'll go check.
00:06:44Milo, is this that receptionist wife of yours?
00:07:08She could learn a thing or two about skin care.
00:07:11She looks all saggy and gross.
00:07:13Of course she can't compare to you, my dear.
00:07:15She's basically a free housemate.
00:07:18Skin care would be above her pay grade.
00:07:20Come on.
00:07:21Let's go.
00:07:22You owe me an explanation.
00:07:29Just look at the facts, Claire.
00:07:31I'm a VIP guest here, and you're nothing but a lowly receptionist.
00:07:35Need I say more?
00:07:37You really booked a room with this woman on our three-year anniversary.
00:07:44Do our wedding vows mean nothing to you?
00:07:47That's just some shit we said three years ago.
00:07:49I never would have married you if you hadn't promised to take care of me when I was dead broke.
00:07:53Milo, only an idiot like you would fall for someone so repulsive.
00:07:57Like I was young and naive.
00:07:59Plus, we'll be divorced soon.
00:08:04Did you just say divorced?
00:08:06You heard me.
00:08:07I'm over you.
00:08:09I get depressed just thinking about coming home to your wrinkly face.
00:08:12Now that I've made it big, I can bag any ten I want.
00:08:14Why would I waste my time with a fool like you?
00:08:23Tony, talk to me.
00:08:25Boss, several countries have just discovered a rich supply of first-class raw materials
00:08:30and are going to export them overseas.
00:08:32We're saved.
00:08:33Ten minutes, just like she said.
00:08:36How the hell did she know this?
00:08:37Okay, Tony, I need you to look into somebody.
00:08:40I gave up a comfortable life for you.
00:08:45I sacrificed so much.
00:08:48And this, this is how you repay me?
00:08:52I'm the only reason you live in a luxury apartment.
00:08:55Without me, you'd be scraping by in some shithole slum.
00:08:58Milo is a giant in the medical world.
00:09:00His blood testing for cancer is nearing a breakthrough.
00:09:04And once he succeeds, he'll be saving millions of lives.
00:09:07A desk worker like you doesn't belong in his circle.
00:09:10Yeah, you hear that?
00:09:12Peasants don't mingle with the social elite.
00:09:15Stella, however, is perfect for a guy who had my status.
00:09:18Seriously?
00:09:19Seriously, I paid for all of your daily expenses so that you could finish your research.
00:09:26I ran around finding you investments and networking.
00:09:32To this day, all of your achievements are due to my generosity.
00:09:39I mean, if anything, the real peasant is you.
00:09:41You think you can take credit for everything?
00:09:45I got to where I am on my own talent and perseverance.
00:09:48The only thing you helped me with was housework.
00:09:56Milo, watch what you say to her.
00:09:58Do you really enjoy spending your time with these lowlifes?
00:10:03Stella, over here, is on good terms with top employee Tony at Ecologics.
00:10:08She secured me a billion dollar investment.
00:10:09It's more than you could ever dream of doing for me.
00:10:12I am the one who told Mr. Hudson to give you that money.
00:10:17I am the one who planned the Gallifer tonight, where he will be announcing his investment.
00:10:25Otherwise, Cain would have never given you the time of day.
00:10:30Are we talking about the same Cain Hudson here?
00:10:32The man's a god in the new energy industry.
00:10:34He makes more in ten minutes than you do in ten lifetimes.
00:10:37Why the hell would he listen to you?
00:10:40Miles, if you would have let me, I could have turned you into a god of your own.
00:10:48This is your loss.
00:10:50Why are you so bitter?
00:10:52Let me guess.
00:10:53You're after my money?
00:10:57Here.
00:10:57There's $50,000 on this bank card.
00:11:07Consider it your salary for the last three years of housekeeping.
00:11:10And from this day on, you're no longer my wife.
00:11:13$50,000.
00:11:20Everything that I've done for you is only worth $50,000.
00:11:26If you're going to get greedy and try and negotiate, I won't give you anything.
00:11:30I only did it because I pity you.
00:11:32I make more money than this in my sleep.
00:11:35You crazy bitch.
00:11:46Yeah, I am crazy.
00:11:48Crazy for wasting my time with you.
00:11:54Milo, I am taking back everything that I've given you.
00:11:57Which, if I do remember correctly, is literally everything you have.
00:12:01Your empty threats aren't going to make me stay with you.
00:12:10This is yours now.
00:12:15I'll tell you the full truth of the Gatla.
00:12:19Hope you won't regret anything.
00:12:22Regrets?
00:12:23Divorcing you is the greatest decision I ever made in my whole life!
00:12:27Baby, enough chit-chatting with this blue-collar trash.
00:12:31Let's go buy you a new outfit for the Gatla.
00:12:34It's a great idea.
00:12:36Let's go.
00:12:40Claire, forget about those assholes.
00:12:44Yeah, no, I'm...
00:12:45I'm fine.
00:12:48Go ahead and get back to work.
00:12:55If you want, I can cancel the Gatla.
00:12:57And run your ex's night.
00:13:01You've worked really, really hard to accomplish this.
00:13:09I would hate to cancel the Gatla because of my relationship drama.
00:13:15Collaborating with Montgomery Group was a big dream of mine.
00:13:19But you helped me out of a serious pickle.
00:13:21Like it or not, I owe you one.
00:13:24Milo is one of Montgomery's key investments.
00:13:29Canceling the Gatla will not sit well with them.
00:13:32I researched his so-called blood test for cancer.
00:13:37He's lacking reliable scientific data.
00:13:40Seems like a well-programmed pseudoscience.
00:13:43I suspect that he's going to use this to swindle investment funds.
00:13:49And what exactly do you plan to do about that?
00:13:54I want you to marry me.
00:13:57Then we can announce publicly at the Gatla.
00:14:00And you can tell everyone about Montgomery
00:14:02and how they're not going to invest with Milo anymore.
00:14:05I'm sure he'd love that.
00:14:07And his mistress.
00:14:14You're not going to sweep me off my feet by proposing like that.
00:14:19Oh, and, uh...
00:14:21For tonight's gala,
00:14:22I'm the one calling the shots.
00:14:25How about this?
00:14:32You stick by my side at the gala.
00:14:35Follow my orders.
00:14:36If you do a good job,
00:14:38I might help you.
00:14:39Do you know who I am?
00:14:41If anything, I should be helping you out.
00:14:43Well, you are very impressive.
00:14:46But you and I
00:14:47are not on the same level.
00:14:50Well,
00:14:51let's see then.
00:14:52I'm curious what kind of help
00:14:54you want to give me.
00:15:09Well, hey!
00:15:10Come on.
00:15:11I can take you home.
00:15:13Thank you,
00:15:14but I'm okay.
00:15:15I have some private matters to attend to.
00:15:18You know you'll be my passenger princess
00:15:20sooner or later.
00:15:25Didn't my son dump you?
00:15:31If you're here trying to get him back,
00:15:34don't bother.
00:15:36I just came to grab a few things.
00:15:38Here.
00:15:42While we're at it,
00:15:43you can have a mile of sign of those.
00:15:45You're just in time.
00:15:46We're about to throw your crap in the trash.
00:15:48There.
00:16:02The agreement's signed and you have your stuff.
00:16:09Now get out
00:16:10and never come back.
00:16:11Yep.
00:16:23Yeah, there's 20.
00:16:25Bye-bye.
00:16:25Boss,
00:16:28I found some information on that woman.
00:16:30Her name's Claire Montgomery.
00:16:33Montgomery?
00:16:34Yeah.
00:16:34She's not with the Montgomery group.
00:16:36Just happens to have the same last name.
00:16:38An ordinary receptionist
00:16:40is going up against Milo Preston?
00:16:43She's got some guts.
00:16:44I'll give her that.
00:16:45Get the car.
00:16:46We're going to see her.
00:16:47You break my things
00:16:50and you're going to break your bank too
00:16:53trying to pay me back.
00:16:57It's just a bunch of cheap stuff anyway.
00:16:59Who cares if it breaks?
00:17:11Give me the necklace.
00:17:13Fat chance.
00:17:14It looks way better on me.
00:17:16And someone in your line of business
00:17:19can't afford such expensive things.
00:17:22You must have stolen from us
00:17:24to have bought it.
00:17:25I bought that necklace
00:17:26with my own money.
00:17:28Oh, the hell you did.
00:17:30I could spend your entire monthly salary
00:17:33just in the hair salon.
00:17:35There's no way that you bought it.
00:17:38Tell me.
00:17:39Did you really take our money, Claire?
00:17:42Wouldn't you like to know?
00:17:43Look, just give me back the necklace.
00:17:46I will not ask nicely next time.
00:17:53If you want it,
00:17:55take it.
00:17:59Take your hands off my sister,
00:18:01you human filth.
00:18:02Claire, if anybody hurts her,
00:18:26I'll break their wrist.
00:18:27Wow.
00:18:30Well, look what Claire found.
00:18:32I guess this explains her newfound confidence.
00:18:35But then again,
00:18:36once a whore,
00:18:37always a whore.
00:18:39Tony, shut her up.
00:18:40Open your mouth one more time,
00:18:42and I'll shut it for you.
00:18:44You're banging this guy
00:18:46in exchange for protection?
00:18:48Gross.
00:18:48I need my necklace.
00:18:53I need my necklace.
00:18:53I need my necklace.
00:19:02Ooh!
00:19:02Thank you for driving me home.
00:19:30I'll see you tonight.
00:19:31Wait.
00:19:32Oh, I could do it.
00:19:40Don't move.
00:19:54Let me drive you to the gala tonight.
00:19:56I have a ride.
00:20:01I can't find any other information on her.
00:20:11I make more money than this in my sleep.
00:20:16I just got word that in about 10 minutes.
00:20:2010 minutes, just like she said.
00:20:22I need my necklace.
00:20:23If she's wearing jewelry like that and she's able to predict the discovery of new raw materials, she's not just an ordinary woman.
00:20:30Keep looking.
00:20:31I got to know who she is.
00:20:33I got to know who she is.
00:20:34Got it, boss.
00:20:35Good to see you, Ms. Montgomery.
00:20:50From this day forward, I'll be retaking control of Montgomery.
00:20:56Then she'll be canceled the gala?
00:20:58No.
00:20:58I want to see the look on Milo's face when he realizes what he's done.
00:21:03I wasted too much time on that greedy son of a bitch.
00:21:08It's time for me to become Clare Montgomery again.
00:21:12Now, of course, the scuba diving is lovely there, but I'm not going to vacation in the same place twice.
00:21:19Mr. Preston, congrats on the investment from Ecologic.
00:21:23This will be a game changer for your cancer testing research.
00:21:25Yeah.
00:21:26I mean, Ecologics is the world's leading new energy company.
00:21:30What's their output?
00:21:3110 billion a year?
00:21:33With Mr. Hudson's backing, you've got a bright future out of you.
00:21:36I appreciate your support.
00:21:39Everyone here played a role in this achievement.
00:21:42We celebrate together.
00:21:45Hey, is it true that you got divorced?
00:21:49It is.
00:21:51And if his ex-wife hadn't been holding him back for three years, this day would have come a whole lot sooner.
00:21:57Not going anywhere in her life?
00:21:59She wasn't worth a second of my love.
00:22:01I consider divorcing her a step in the direction of success.
00:22:06Now you got me curious about her.
00:22:09What does she look like?
00:22:11Don't get your hopes out.
00:22:13It's actually hilarious how ugly she is.
00:22:19Milo.
00:22:22Wait.
00:22:23Oh.
00:22:36Hello, skank.
00:22:43This is a private gala.
00:22:45And guess what?
00:22:46You're not allowed.
00:22:47Excuse me?
00:22:48And where does it say that I can't be here?
00:22:51Claire.
00:22:52We're over.
00:22:54Just leave me alone.
00:22:55If you had any self-awareness, you would know how sad it looks trying to get me back.
00:22:59The only thing sad is you, naked with the light on.
00:23:03I'm here to show these people what a fucking fraud you are.
00:23:11How dare you insult my son.
00:23:17Milo is well packaged.
00:23:19You absolutely rink of poverty.
00:23:32That weak little slap is nothing compared to the pain I'm going to make you feel.
00:23:37Your threats mean nothing to us.
00:23:43And the people here, we're movers and shakers.
00:23:46That guy that you're banging ain't going to give you any help.
00:23:50Are you trying to get slapped too?
00:23:55Where's your sugar daddy, Claire?
00:23:57Oh.
00:23:58I bet you thought he was going to come here and save you.
00:24:01I could take you both on my own.
00:24:03You think my power comes from a man?
00:24:08If only you knew.
00:24:09Man, I am glad I divorced you.
00:24:12I knew you were stupid.
00:24:13But I didn't realize how easy you were.
00:24:16I don't even want to know your body count now that we've split up.
00:24:19Oh.
00:24:19That's rich coming from you.
00:24:22You're the one who cheated on me when we were still married.
00:24:25That's different.
00:24:26Stella has taken my career to new heights.
00:24:29You're a useless housewife.
00:24:31I'd be crazy not to choose her over you.
00:24:34The real you is an asshole.
00:24:38I never should have spent so much time getting you investments and paving your way to the top.
00:24:44I wasted three years.
00:24:52You're a liar.
00:24:53I was the one slaving away to get Milo these opportunities.
00:25:00You did nothing for him.
00:25:02Yeah.
00:25:03Stella's uncle is the CFO of Montgomery Group.
00:25:05Only she can get the support that Milo deserves.
00:25:08True that.
00:25:09Claire's just lashing out out of jealousy.
00:25:11I was the one who secured all of your investments and research opportunities over the past few years.
00:25:20Including the investment on Ecologics.
00:25:23Don't fall for her bullshit.
00:25:25Relax.
00:25:26I was with her long enough to know how useless she is.
00:25:28As long as I can play my uncle as the CFO card, no one's going to doubt me.
00:25:35I'll say this once.
00:25:37Leave the gala before things get messy.
00:25:40You're the one who has no business here.
00:25:43I already told King to cancel the investment.
00:25:47You're not getting another cent from Ecologics.
00:25:50Sorry for the wait.
00:25:59Evening folks.
00:26:01I'm Gideon Ford.
00:26:02Executive assistant of Ecologics.
00:26:05I'm here on our CEO's account to present this agreement with the gala's host.
00:26:12Hear that?
00:26:14And you thought he canceled the investment?
00:26:16Not on my watch, bitch.
00:26:18And what makes you so sure that this agreement is for you?
00:26:25Wallace.
00:26:26We just got a complaint about our investigation into Claire.
00:26:29We have no choice but to shut it down.
00:26:32Interesting.
00:26:34She's definitely piqued my interest.
00:26:36Has she arrived at the gala?
00:26:38She's there.
00:26:39Gideon's about to deliver the agreement.
00:26:41Should we trust Claire?
00:26:44With our lives.
00:26:46Who else would it be for?
00:26:48Not some minimum wage hotel worker.
00:26:53Mr. Ford.
00:26:55Just to confirm.
00:26:56That's Mr. Hudson's investment agreement you got there?
00:26:59That's right.
00:27:01Well, that settles it.
00:27:02Your cute little games are over.
00:27:05I'm heading to the top.
00:27:08I'm so proud of you, baby.
00:27:11Don't get too excited.
00:27:13This agreement was invalidated ten minutes ago.
00:27:15Do you really think you can influence Cain's decisions?
00:27:27Get real.
00:27:29You'd only be let through the doors at Ecologics as a janitor.
00:27:32Mr. Ford, please, read us the contents of the agreement.
00:27:37Sir, you are not authorized to view the agreement's terms.
00:27:41I'm the host of the gala.
00:27:43If anyone's authorized, it's me.
00:27:45Miss Montgomery, the fate of that agreement is for you to decide.
00:27:56Gideon, she's not involved in the Montgomery group.
00:28:00She just happens to have the same last name as the CEO.
00:28:03Don't involve her in this.
00:28:06No, he meant what he said.
00:28:08Whether this agreement will be voided or not isn't...
00:28:12Do you know how important this is?
00:28:14If I sign that paper, I'll be one of the most successful entrepreneurs overnight.
00:28:18It's going to change my life.
00:28:21You really need to think about this.
00:28:23Whoa!
00:28:25Whoa, stop!
00:28:26What are you doing?
00:28:31I told you I would take back everything.
00:28:43This is just the beginning.
00:28:50You're the executive assistant at Ecologics.
00:28:53You should know how important that agreement was.
00:28:57Like I said, the fate of that agreement
00:29:00lies on Miss Montgomery's hands.
00:29:03It's not yours to decide.
00:29:05So you slept with this guy too, huh?
00:29:08Jesus, Claire.
00:29:09Nothing's below you.
00:29:15You've got some nerves talking to Miss Montgomery like that.
00:29:18Okay.
00:29:19Now I'm really ticked off.
00:29:23Guys,
00:29:24get these two out of here.
00:29:30Come on.
00:29:36Come on.
00:29:36Try me!
00:29:37Hey, listen.
00:29:59Your CEO is the one that organized this whole gala for me.
00:30:02But now you're teaming up with Claire and letting her tear up my agreement?
00:30:06When Mr. Hudson gets here, I'm going to tell him everything.
00:30:10Wow.
00:30:11You really don't get it yet, do you?
00:30:13Shut your mouth!
00:30:15And go back to your hotel desk!
00:30:17Leave my agreements alone.
00:30:19Mr. Hudson's here!
00:30:35Now you're finished.
00:30:37Speak for yourself.
00:30:40Waging a war on my turf?
00:30:42You're going to wish you were dead!
00:30:43Milo, doesn't that guy look familiar?
00:31:08Oh, that's right.
00:31:09It's Claire's little sugar daddy.
00:31:11Yep, that's him.
00:31:13Calling in your new fling to impersonate Mr. Hudson?
00:31:17Nice try, Claire.
00:31:18You fool.
00:31:20Mr. Hudson's the energy king.
00:31:23This guy you brought with you is some kind of lawless barbarian.
00:31:28Oh, no.
00:31:32You figured me out.
00:31:35What am I going to do?
00:31:37What's an asshole like you doing in a place like this?
00:31:39As if trespassing on our property isn't enough.
00:31:43Well, fine.
00:31:45Stay.
00:31:46We're going to teach you a lesson.
00:31:49Yeah, I'd love to see you try.
00:31:51Do they really not know what Mr. Hudson looks like?
00:31:55The Preston family are a bunch of idiots.
00:31:58They don't even recognize the energy king.
00:32:00Hey, people.
00:32:05Are we going to greet my boss or not?
00:32:15Welcome, Mr. Hudson.
00:32:16It's great to see you.
00:32:18Thanks for coming, boss.
00:32:19What's going on here?
00:32:26Wait.
00:32:27Is that guy really Mr. Hudson?
00:32:29That's right.
00:32:30You are looking at the CEO of Ecologics.
00:32:36Kane Hudson.
00:32:43You're right.
00:32:44She's just a glorified servant.
00:32:45No way does she know Kane Hudson.
00:32:47What are you muttering about?
00:32:49You asked to see my boss.
00:32:50Here he is.
00:32:53Mr. Hudson is a trusted partner with the Preston family.
00:32:56No way would he stoop so low
00:32:58as to join forces with my shitty ex-wife.
00:33:02Milo, you dipshit.
00:33:04That guy literally is Kane Hudson.
00:33:07What?
00:33:09No.
00:33:15Are you really Mr. Hudson?
00:33:18Oh, my God.
00:33:23Mr. Hudson, please forgive my ignorance.
00:33:26And on behalf of the entire Preston family,
00:33:29please accept our sincerest apologies.
00:33:31I'm not the one you owe an apology.
00:33:38Go on.
00:33:38I would love to hear what you have to apologize for.
00:33:43Sorry.
00:33:46You're going to have to do much better than that.
00:33:48Sorry.
00:33:48Effective immediately, Ecologics is withdrawing
00:33:53its billion-dollar investment with Milo's research
00:33:56and officially ending our business relationship
00:33:59with the Preston family.
00:34:01He's withdrawing the investment without my consent?
00:34:04Shouldn't he be afraid of stirring up trouble
00:34:06with the Montgomery group?
00:34:07I'm sorry, mysterious, Ms. Montgomery.
00:34:10I'll explain everything later.
00:34:12Wait.
00:34:13We're making a mistake here.
00:34:15Let's talk this over.
00:34:17Oof.
00:34:18A little late for negotiating, don't you think?
00:34:20God, you just never quit.
00:34:22What kind of spell do you have this guy under?
00:34:33You scumbag.
00:34:35You know Claire's the one that asked me
00:34:36to invest a billion dollars with you.
00:34:38And since you've divorced her,
00:34:40I have no reason to help.
00:34:42Wait.
00:34:43You knew that I requested Milo's investment?
00:34:47Shh.
00:34:48I'm just pulling his leg.
00:34:50Trust me.
00:34:51It'll make you look good.
00:34:52Fine.
00:34:53You're not wrong anyway.
00:34:55I don't understand why you're helping her.
00:34:58You're the energy king.
00:35:00You can score with the sexiest babes in the world.
00:35:02Why settle for a throwaway like her?
00:35:08Mr. Hudson, this chick has you hoodwinked.
00:35:10She's just a poor, uneducated laborer.
00:35:13Stella's right.
00:35:14And I hope you're not just in it for the ass.
00:35:18I'd rather fuck a sex dog.
00:35:20A sex dog is the only action
00:35:25a short, scrawny loser like you will ever get.
00:35:33Don't get a big head, Claire.
00:35:34He's clearly just using you.
00:35:36Is that jealousy that I'm saying, Claire?
00:35:39I should thank you.
00:35:52If it wasn't for you, I might have missed my chance with Claire.
00:35:54It's a shame you couldn't appreciate her strengths.
00:36:01Thanks for divorcing me, Milo.
00:36:03Otherwise, I never would have met someone so much more talented, handsome, and loving than you ever were.
00:36:10Don't be so naive, Claire.
00:36:14He's only with you to hit it and quit it.
00:36:16A high flyer like that would never look at you as marriage material.
00:36:19Yeah.
00:36:21Guys from rich families can't just take home any old bitch.
00:36:24Imagine the look on his mother's face if you tried to ask for his hand.
00:36:27Actually, I think my mother would approve.
00:36:33Claire, if you want to marry me, I'm all yours.
00:36:39Mr. Hudson, she's just in it for your money.
00:36:46Doesn't matter to me.
00:36:47You need to think this over.
00:36:49This woman is going to scam you out of your money, sabotage your work projects, and take down your entire business.
00:36:54I don't need to think anything over.
00:36:56I know Claire way better than you did.
00:36:58You can trust me, Mr. Hudson.
00:37:10If you invest in me, I'll complete my groundbreaking cancer testing research, and I'll repay you generously for your support.
00:37:18Wake up, Milo.
00:37:19You're not going to be the guy that cures cancer.
00:37:21Shut your mouth!
00:37:29And what the hell do you know?
00:37:30You didn't even go to college.
00:37:32You're just jealous because Milo's a genius.
00:37:34Right.
00:37:36Because needing my help to get investments for three years makes him a genius.
00:37:41Your help.
00:37:41You might know how to seduce guys, but when it comes to networking and connections, you are no match for me.
00:37:46Oh, well then, I cannot wait to see how you get Milo out of this mess.
00:37:54And I can't wait to see what other cheap tricks you have up your sleeve.
00:38:02Yes, this is Milo.
00:38:04What?
00:38:06You're withdrawing your investment funds?
00:38:10No, no, no.
00:38:11Please.
00:38:12Please don't do that.
00:38:14Okay, no, I'm begging you.
00:38:16These funds are important to my reach.
00:38:18What?
00:38:19What happened?
00:38:21I missed my money.
00:38:23Let's fuck off.
00:38:24Impossible.
00:38:26Those investors are friends of my uncle.
00:38:28What did you do?
00:38:31Claire.
00:38:33Let's get out of here.
00:38:34You don't leave until I say so.
00:38:39If you heard Claire, you're going to regret it.
00:38:46Claire, I'm so sorry.
00:38:58I've been terrible.
00:39:00Remember those three happy years we shared?
00:39:06Please, just forgive me.
00:39:10Milo, what are you doing?
00:39:11You look pathetic.
00:39:12Don't touch me.
00:39:15You and that uncle of yours have ruined my career.
00:39:20Claire.
00:39:22If you can get the investors to reverse their decision,
00:39:26I'll break up with Stella.
00:39:28I still love you.
00:39:34I mean it.
00:39:35Really?
00:39:38Claire.
00:39:40It's bluffing.
00:39:42I knew you felt the same.
00:39:46You can't fool me with your last minute begging.
00:39:50Milo, I don't believe a word that comes out of your mouth.
00:39:53Let's go.
00:40:03Oh, you petty bitch.
00:40:05You think you can take on me?
00:40:08Just wait and see.
00:40:14Great acting back there.
00:40:15You know, for a second, I almost believed you actually loved me.
00:40:22I wasn't acting.
00:40:24I meant everything I said in there.
00:40:28I fell for Milo's lies.
00:40:31I'm sure as hell not going to fall for yours.
00:40:35Good night, King.
00:40:36You were right to end things with Milo.
00:40:45Now you can start fresh.
00:40:48I gave the green light to Kane for everything you did today.
00:40:51This doesn't change where he stands with us.
00:40:53Understood.
00:40:55Also,
00:40:57in three days, I'll be holding an event to announce my return to Montgomery Group.
00:41:01God damn it!
00:41:07How did this happen?
00:41:09Even my mom left!
00:41:16Milo, don't worry.
00:41:17We'll find a way out of this.
00:41:19I'm sorry, Stella.
00:41:22You know I would never leave you.
00:41:24I just wanted my investment money back.
00:41:31Cain Hudson!
00:41:34You get over here now!
00:41:40Wait.
00:41:41Aren't you Eliza Reed?
00:41:43The Reed family heiress?
00:41:44I am indeed the Reed family heiress.
00:41:48And Cain Hudson's fiancée.
00:41:52Milo, go introduce yourself.
00:41:54She's loaded.
00:41:55Right up there with Miss Montgomery.
00:42:01Miss Reed.
00:42:03It's an absolute pleasure.
00:42:05I'm Milo Preston.
00:42:06You mean the genius behind the cutting-edge cancer testing research?
00:42:12That's me.
00:42:14He's backed by the Montgomery Group.
00:42:17Partnering with him might be my shot at finally landing that collaboration with the Montgomery's.
00:42:22Well, I've heard very impressive things about you.
00:42:25I would love to explore potential collaboration.
00:42:29I've been looking forward to meeting you.
00:42:31And did you say Cain was your fiancée?
00:42:34Yes.
00:42:36Have you guys seen him?
00:42:37Well, yes.
00:42:38He has a unique relationship with my ex-wife.
00:42:43He recently cancelled a $1 billion investment because of her.
00:42:48What did you just say?
00:42:49He cancelled an investment because of your ex-wife?
00:42:57Yes.
00:42:58He even said he's going to marry her.
00:43:01I don't know what kind of spell that witch put on him.
00:43:05You two have been taken for fools.
00:43:09What?
00:43:11Miss Reed, what do you mean we've been taken for fools?
00:43:14That investment was not from Cain at all.
00:43:16Cain's the one that organized this whole gala for me.
00:43:19It's not his money.
00:43:20It's insider information.
00:43:22For the past three years, your research has been all fast-tracked thanks to the quiet backing of the Montgomery Group.
00:43:30What?
00:43:31The Montgomery Group has been behind me the whole time?
00:43:34Exactly.
00:43:36The galas, the billion-dollar investments, all Montgomery Group.
00:43:42Oh, I knew it!
00:43:43A genius like me can't go unnoticed.
00:43:46So Cain and that conniving bitch Claire have been playing us this whole time.
00:43:50I won't let Cain call off our engagement that easily.
00:43:53Miss Reed, if there's any way we can help, please, just say the word.
00:43:57You want your investment money back?
00:43:59Of course.
00:44:00But how?
00:44:04Go straight to the Montgomery Group and expose Cain's lies.
00:44:15Boss, canceling Milo's investment like that?
00:44:18You sure the Montgomery Group is going to let this slide?
00:44:21Look, I know what I'm doing, okay?
00:44:22I'll talk to their CEO myself.
00:44:24Mr. Hudson, I just heard about your move at the gala.
00:44:33Look, Mr. Duncan, let me explain.
00:44:35No need.
00:44:36We're fully behind you.
00:44:38Oh, you are?
00:44:40Of course.
00:44:42That is our CEO's decision.
00:44:44In fact, they want you to come by headquarters.
00:44:46They have a gift for you.
00:44:48I'll be there.
00:44:49Ms. Montgomery, I've invited Cain to headquarters as you requested.
00:44:56Cain, don't be startled when you learn my real identity.
00:45:03Well, look at that.
00:45:04Now we don't have to deal with any backlash from the Montgomery Group.
00:45:09Are you really going to toss me aside for some nobody?
00:45:17Eliza, we're done here.
00:45:18Oh, don't you forget.
00:45:20Our engagement was arranged by your grandfather.
00:45:23I can marry whoever I want.
00:45:25Well, that may be true for ordinary people.
00:45:28But you and I both know how this game is played.
00:45:31Our lives have been planned for us since birth.
00:45:34Ugh.
00:45:35Why are you even hesitating?
00:45:38Am I not as good as that front desk receptionist that you've become so smitten with?
00:45:44She has nothing to do with this.
00:45:46Are you defending her?
00:45:49Ecologic's current success is entirely attributed to the Reed family support.
00:45:54So, are you refusing me for some lowly hotel receptionist?
00:46:00I'm thankful for everything that you did for me.
00:46:04Oh, go to hell!
00:46:06Your company would have gone bankrupt long ago if I wasn't there to support it.
00:46:10You know, just, why won't you leave that woman?
00:46:21I'm your fiancée.
00:46:23And I'm what's best for you.
00:46:28You're not very convincing.
00:46:30You will be mine.
00:46:45Wow.
00:46:45This place really screams money.
00:46:49Thank you for getting me in here, Stella.
00:46:51Without you, I never would have been able to be here.
00:46:54Thanks to my uncle, you can come anytime.
00:46:56I'm glad to have you by my side.
00:47:01Let me tell you some good news.
00:47:03Ms. Montgomery is returning to headquarters today.
00:47:05Maybe we can get my uncle to introduce us.
00:47:08That would be amazing.
00:47:08You've done more for me than Claire ever did.
00:47:12That bitch wouldn't even be able to get you these opportunities.
00:47:30Mary Klein, your CFO heard about your return and has prepared an expensive gift.
00:47:34You'd like to see at once.
00:47:36I don't have time.
00:47:37Please decline.
00:47:37Understood.
00:47:38Is the $5 billion investment ready for Cain?
00:47:41It's ready.
00:47:42I'll go get it.
00:47:43I'll be right in.
00:47:45Cain, your loyalty is admirable.
00:47:48You have my unwavering support.
00:47:55Uh, Mr. Duncan, did Ms. Montgomery agree to meet me?
00:47:58She just got back and she's got a lot on her plate.
00:48:00Try some other time.
00:48:01Uh, Ms. Montgomery asked me to get the investor agreement.
00:48:05If you grab it yourself, you might be able to meet her.
00:48:07I'd be happy to.
00:48:08I'd be happy to.
00:48:09Don't make any mistakes.
00:48:10It's a very important document.
00:48:11Uncle Harry, I'm here.
00:48:21I'm here.
00:48:21You two are in luck.
00:48:23Our CEO has just set up a $5 billion investment agreement.
00:48:26It seems they're trying to make up with a little incident last night with Malik.
00:48:31$5 billion.
00:48:32$5 billion for me.
00:48:34Is this real?
00:48:35Okay.
00:48:36For three years, Montgomery Group has been silently supporting you.
00:48:39This time is no different.
00:48:41Claire had to get involved.
00:48:43That bitch doesn't realize her little stunt got us even more investment money.
00:48:46Now that our CEO is back, you get a chance to meet them.
00:48:49Be polite.
00:48:50Make a good impression.
00:48:52Absolutely.
00:48:53Thank you for all your help.
00:48:55You know, when I'm successful, I won't forget your support.
00:48:58Okay.
00:48:58You two, wait here.
00:49:00We'll go get the investment agreement.
00:49:07So what if that bitch found another man?
00:49:09I'm going to be so rich, she's going to be begging to come back to me.
00:49:13The slut who sleeps her way to the top will never be a worthy opponent.
00:49:16Look what the cat dragged in.
00:49:23Still playing dress-up, Claire?
00:49:29Well, at least I don't need a man to get me in the door.
00:49:33Stop bragging.
00:49:34This isn't Ecologics.
00:49:36Your new boy toy won't be able to save you here.
00:49:38I'm sorry, are you forgetting that you're the one who cheated with my husband?
00:49:42Milo.
00:49:43You took time out of your day to come here?
00:49:46Are you trying to get back with me?
00:49:47It's not going to work.
00:49:48Don't be so self-centered.
00:49:50I'm here because I have work to do.
00:49:52Oh, are you having an affair with the security guard?
00:49:59You're disgusting.
00:50:01I'm VIP!
00:50:02Don't you dare touch me!
00:50:04You bitch!
00:50:04My Uncle Harry is CFO at Montgomery Group.
00:50:07I might just talk to him about you and you'll be fired!
00:50:10Wait.
00:50:11Harry Klein is your uncle?
00:50:13Yes!
00:50:13Are you scared?
00:50:16If Harry knew how you two have been treating me, you might actually fear him.
00:50:20Don't be ridiculous.
00:50:22We see through your lies.
00:50:23Didn't Cain humiliate you enough?
00:50:25We already know the truth.
00:50:27The real investor backing Milo is not Cain.
00:50:29It's the CEO of Montgomery Group.
00:50:31By the way, Miss Montgomery already reinvested $5 billion in my cancer testing research to make up for last night's loss.
00:50:39Really?
00:50:39I wasn't aware of that.
00:50:42Well, nobody cares about your lowly opinion.
00:50:44Milo, you're too stupid to deserve that investment.
00:50:47Once my research test results are out, I'm going to be a billionaire.
00:50:51And you'll realize how foolish you were to doubt me.
00:50:53Well, I heard that investment isn't even for you.
00:50:55The cancer testing research is cutting-edge technology.
00:50:59Who other than Milo deserves the $5 billion investment?
00:51:03The $5 billion investment is mine.
00:51:06I can give that money to whoever I want.
00:51:08You're saying it's yours?
00:51:10Are you trying to impersonate Miss Montgomery?
00:51:12I don't need to impersonate her.
00:51:14I am her.
00:51:16Once my uncle arrives, we'll see if you're still willing to lie about who you are.
00:51:20Harry is my subordinate.
00:51:22He has to listen to what I have to say.
00:51:24Are you brain dead?
00:51:25No one is dumb enough to pretend to be the Montgomery Group CEO while at headquarters.
00:51:30I didn't realize you started lying after our divorce.
00:51:33Do you know how ridiculous you look?
00:51:35Let me let you in on a little secret.
00:51:37That $5 billion investment is a gift from the Montgomery Group to Cain.
00:51:42It has nothing to do with you.
00:51:46Stop lying.
00:51:48All my progress over the years has been thanks to the Montgomery Group's unwavering support.
00:51:52Why would they stop now?
00:51:53Especially for someone like Cain.
00:51:56Joke's on you.
00:51:58Because guess what?
00:51:59I'm Claire Montgomery.
00:52:01And I've been pulling the strings all along.
00:52:05Yeah.
00:52:07Just because you have the same last name as her
00:52:10doesn't mean you're even in the same class.
00:52:12Keep dreaming.
00:52:13I've already investigated you.
00:52:15You have no connection to the Montgomery Group.
00:52:18You're just a hotel receptionist.
00:52:20Security?
00:52:21Kick her out.
00:52:28If you touch her again, you'll have to answer to me.
00:52:33Beat it.
00:52:34Understood?
00:52:39Who let you in here?
00:52:41This is Montgomery Group headquarters.
00:52:43Did you get permission?
00:52:44Get your filthy hands off me.
00:52:46Hey, I'm a major investment here at the Montgomery Group, all right?
00:52:49You can't touch me.
00:52:52Are you okay?
00:52:53Of course.
00:52:55This is my turf.
00:52:57Milo, your cancer testing research is a complete farce.
00:53:01Montgomery Group has already stopped investing in you.
00:53:03You don't understand the science behind it.
00:53:05The CFO is about to arrive.
00:53:07If you try and sabotage my agreement, I'll file a police report.
00:53:11Don't be naive.
00:53:13Montgomery Group has already canceled all their investments in you.
00:53:15You're not going to fool me again.
00:53:17I secured the $5 billion investment,
00:53:19and I'm going to use that money to bankrupt Ecologics.
00:53:23What's all the fuss?
00:53:26Just in time,
00:53:29my investment agreement arrives.
00:53:32Uncle Harry, what's that?
00:53:40Well, this is the investment agreement that Ms. Montgomery ordered for Milo.
00:53:43This is all the evidence I need.
00:53:45That agreement is not for Milo.
00:53:47What are you two doing here?
00:53:48Who invited you?
00:53:50I was invited by Mr. Duncan.
00:53:51So now you're lying to get more investment opportunities?
00:53:54He's not lying.
00:53:55I invited him.
00:53:56Under what authority do you have to invite him?
00:53:58Harry, she's just my ex-wife.
00:54:00She's been trying to sabotage my career because she's angry.
00:54:03She even said that this investment agreement is for Cain and not me.
00:54:07This investment agreement was prepared by our CEO's executive assistant.
00:54:10It's honestly none of your business.
00:54:12You don't have to believe me.
00:54:15Just let Cain open it.
00:54:17You'll see.
00:54:18If this doesn't work, we're screwed.
00:54:20Don't worry.
00:54:21You can open it.
00:54:24Oh, and Ben.
00:54:27I don't want anyone but Cain to have access to this agreement.
00:54:30I use the fingerprint scan that we have on file, so he's the only one who can unlock the documents.
00:54:37I'll give you guys one chance to open it.
00:54:39If you can't, then I'll report you to the cops.
00:54:43What are you waiting for?
00:54:45Open it.
00:54:46I don't know how to open it.
00:54:51What if it doesn't open it?
00:54:52This is Montgomery Group's gift to you.
00:54:55Who can open it?
00:54:58He can't open it.
00:54:59Only someone supported by the Montgomery Group can open the briefcase.
00:55:03Watch.
00:55:04I can open it.
00:55:07You can try.
00:55:13All notification denied.
00:55:15Impossible.
00:55:20Oh, Harry, what's going on?
00:55:22It must be broken.
00:55:24Now let's have Cain try.
00:55:27You can't open it.
00:55:30Trust me, Cain.
00:55:32You can open it.
00:55:35Okay.
00:55:37It's nothing.
00:55:38It's nothing.
00:55:45For three years, Malo has been the protege of the Montgomery Group's CEO.
00:55:59This investment agreement was meant for him.
00:56:02No one else can open the briefcase.
00:56:04And what if Cain can open it?
00:56:07Then I'll resign.
00:56:09I wouldn't be so sure if I were you.
00:56:10Cain, go ahead.
00:56:24Cain, go ahead.
00:56:24Cain, go ahead.
00:56:25Cain, go ahead.
00:56:25Successful.
00:56:33How did this happen?
00:56:35Impossible.
00:56:37It's been tampered with.
00:56:38Ben sent this password.
00:56:40How did Cain open it?
00:56:42Take a look inside.
00:56:43Milo, it seems this agreement doesn't mention you anywhere.
00:56:56I guess Montgomery Group had no intention of investing in you after all.
00:57:03Harry, what's going on?
00:57:05The fingerprint scanner must be broken.
00:57:15Return that immediately.
00:57:17That is my gift to Cain.
00:57:18I don't care how you open the briefcase.
00:57:21You clearly have no authority to take the agreement.
00:57:24What is this ruckus in my building?
00:57:30What is this ruckus in my building?
00:57:32What is this ruckus in my building?
00:57:35This is Montgomery Group headquarters, not a nightclub.
00:57:40Sorry, Mr. Duncan.
00:57:41I don't know how Claren Cain managed to open the briefcase.
00:57:44Mr. Duncan, it's a pleasure to meet you.
00:57:47My name is Milo Preston.
00:57:49You're the kid who developed the new cancer testing research.
00:57:52Yes.
00:57:53Yes.
00:57:54All thanks to the support of the Montgomery Group.
00:57:57And you're aware of all of the backing that Montgomery Group has provided for you.
00:58:00Yes.
00:58:01Yes.
00:58:01And can I say what an honor it is to be supported by such a prestigious company.
00:58:07Did you hear that pitch?
00:58:09Mr. Duncan just acknowledged that Milo is a favorite around here.
00:58:15Cain.
00:58:17Go call your team and inform them of the Trabesco.
00:58:20Are you sure?
00:58:22I can handle this.
00:58:25I'll be back.
00:58:26Milo, take this.
00:58:32This is a gift from the Montgomery Group.
00:58:35I can't believe it.
00:58:38I've never received a $5 billion investment agreement before.
00:58:43Mr. Duncan, please, thank the Montgomerys for me.
00:58:46And I promise I'll finish my cancer testing research.
00:58:49I'm a group resources are not meant for lowlifes like you to do as you please.
00:59:00What the hell?
00:59:01I'm sorry.
00:59:02Here is the $5 billion agreement you asked me to prepare.
00:59:06Ms. Montgomery.
00:59:07Ms. Montgomery?
00:59:12No, Mr. Duncan, you don't understand.
00:59:14This is just a disgruntled ex-wife.
00:59:17Idiot.
00:59:23I'll give you a chance to meet Ms. Montgomery, and this is how you treat her, with such disrespect.
00:59:27What are you talking about?
00:59:29Are you...
00:59:31Ben, I don't ever want to see this person again.
00:59:39Escort him out.
00:59:42Wait, Ms. Montgomery.
00:59:44I, I didn't, I didn't know.
00:59:45I'm sorry, I, I...
00:59:47Stop.
00:59:47You little shit, you ruined me!
00:59:55Mr. Duncan, I think there's a misunderstanding here.
00:59:58This bitch...
01:00:00This woman...
01:00:02This woman is just a regular hotel worker.
01:00:06Alright, she has no authority here.
01:00:09You are so dense.
01:00:11The $5 billion investment money was given to me by the CEO of the Montgomery Group.
01:00:16Are you really going to go against their will for Claire?
01:00:19I'm not going against their will, and I will remind you that your ex-wife is a public figure,
01:00:25so I would warn you to be very careful.
01:00:27No, she's not.
01:00:28She's an ordinary woman that nobody wants.
01:00:33Piss off.
01:00:36Claire.
01:00:37Who are you?
01:00:39I've already told you.
01:00:42Yeah.
01:00:42Ben, please see our guests out.
01:00:47Don't touch me!
01:00:50We'll see ourselves out.
01:00:54Don't regret this.
01:01:04What's going on here?
01:01:05Well, this is a gift from Ben.
01:01:14Gift from Ben?
01:01:18Yes.
01:01:19Originally, the investment was intended for Milo.
01:01:25However, my CEO thought that his cancer testing research might be fake.
01:01:32So I took it upon myself to discuss with Ms. Montgomery about Milo's research.
01:01:42There's no way to detect blood cancer from a single drop of blood.
01:01:47So, I recommended your renewable energy projects to Ben for investment.
01:01:53I am grateful to Montgomery Group for your trust in me.
01:01:56You won't regret it.
01:01:57Ah, Ben.
01:02:09Are you forgetting something?
01:02:14This is an invitation to the gala celebrating the return of our mystery CEO.
01:02:19For me?
01:02:20You sure? Absolutely. It's at our CEO's request.
01:02:26Please thank the CEO for this. Wow.
01:02:31Claire, would you like to be my plus one to the gala?
01:02:36Sure, why not?
01:02:42Ms. Montgomery, why have you not revealed your true identity to Kane?
01:02:46I need to make sure he doesn't have any red flags first. I can't handle another Milo.
01:02:54Why is Ben helping her so much?
01:02:57Hey, Claire, give him something? He listened to her like she had authority over him.
01:03:01Don't forget how manipulative she can be.
01:03:04You think she's manipulating him?
01:03:05She must be. Otherwise, why would Ben be cooperating with her so much?
01:03:10Yeah, yeah, yeah, maybe you're right.
01:03:17So, did you get the investment?
01:03:21No. Kane took it before I could.
01:03:25You're an idiot!
01:03:27It's fine. We still have a chance.
01:03:31The Montgomery Group CEO is hosting a gala the day after tomorrow night.
01:03:36And I have secured our entry.
01:03:38So, when the time comes, you will cooperate with me.
01:03:42I want Kane to understand that leaving me was a mistake.
01:03:49Well, how?
01:03:54I want to see what happens.
01:03:56Why is that chair so different?
01:04:08It's the Montgomery throne.
01:04:10Whoever sits there will influence America's economy for the next 30 years.
01:04:14We'll never have that kind of power.
01:04:16I heard the CEO's in their 20s.
01:04:18Do they really have what it takes to lead Montgomery Group?
01:04:21Company success is all they're doing.
01:04:22No one can replace them.
01:04:24Meeting the CEO is actually on my bucket list.
01:04:26Today's a rare opportunity.
01:04:28I have to leave a good impression.
01:04:41Who is she?
01:04:52I can't believe we're at such a high-end party to watch Milo's ex-wife show off.
01:04:57Stella, I could bankrupt you in a night.
01:05:01I'll kick you out.
01:05:03The Montgomery CEO is about to sit upon their throne.
01:05:05And Milo will expose your scheme to embezzle the investment money.
01:05:10You'll go to jail.
01:05:12I already told you.
01:05:14I am Miss Longo.
01:05:15You're a joke.
01:05:16Just a loser living in your own little fantasy world.
01:05:22Someone get this slut out of here.
01:05:27She's not invited.
01:05:29I agree.
01:05:30The CEO is arriving soon.
01:05:32Don't let this trash ruin the event.
01:05:34Get her out.
01:05:36Well, if I leave, then you all have no reason to be here.
01:05:39Someone get this bitch out of here.
01:05:40She's not invited.
01:05:42Who said she's not invited?
01:05:54Who said Claire doesn't have an invite?
01:05:56I have it right here.
01:06:00Let me guess.
01:06:02Ben gave you that invite?
01:06:06It's a genuine invite.
01:06:08I don't doubt that it's real.
01:06:12The question is, how does a broke loser like Claire convince Ben to customize one for her?
01:06:19Let me answer that for you.
01:06:21It's because Claire is Ben's little plaything.
01:06:26Claire, don't let him rally you up.
01:06:30I'm a genius.
01:06:32The Montgomerys and Eliza both believe in me and my revolutionary cancer testing research.
01:06:36I have millions in patents.
01:06:38I'm going to be so wealthy you can't even imagine.
01:06:43You can't compete.
01:06:46Be careful what type of men you choose, Claire.
01:06:49You can't count on Cain and Ben to save you when the real CEO arrives.
01:06:54Instead of worrying about me, you should focus on yourself.
01:06:59Your little game is finished.
01:07:03And your days of prosperity are coming to an end.
01:07:08Well, at least I won't have to look at your old, wrinkly face every day.
01:07:13You disgust me.
01:07:15You disgust me.
01:07:17Well, then you better not beg for my forgiveness once you find out who I really are.
01:07:24Let me be straight with you.
01:07:26Eliza's connected me with two of the major shareholders of the Montgomery Court.
01:07:32They're partners with the CEO.
01:07:33So even Ben, reckless as he is, can't disobey their orders.
01:07:38And now that I have both the CEO and the two shareholders on my side,
01:07:42how long do you think Cain and Ben can protect you?
01:07:47You'll be begging me to take you back.
01:07:51You know what your biggest problem is?
01:07:53You take yourself way too seriously.
01:07:56Eliza's meeting with the shareholders as we speak.
01:07:58You and old man Ben's embezzlement of my investment funds is going to face justice.
01:08:05What did you say?
01:08:08Ben embezzled the $5 billion investment?
01:08:11Exactly.
01:08:13Ben already handed over the funds to Cain.
01:08:16Has Ben lost his mind?
01:08:18How dare he misappropriate the funds while our CEO is away?
01:08:21Derek, we need to clean house for our CEO's return.
01:08:24Cain, you think your business is safe?
01:08:29If you want Ecologics to keep running, you'll have to marry me.
01:08:37Claire, what do you have hiding up your sleeve?
01:08:41What's wrong, Cain?
01:08:43Starting to doubt the Montgomery Group would invest $5 billion in you.
01:08:46If you admit your mistake, tear up the agreement Claire gave you, I'd be willing to tell the authorities you were coerced.
01:08:58God, you will say anything, won't you?
01:09:01This is your last chance, Cain.
01:09:10I trust Claire.
01:09:11Cain, don't you ever think about what you are doing!
01:09:18You are an idiot!
01:09:22You are just a pawn in Claire's sick little game.
01:09:26Do you really think that you're going to get that investment?
01:09:32Hey, my business is none of your concern.
01:09:34Wake up!
01:09:35Claire seduced you into accepting that $5 billion just so that she could drain it and disappear.
01:09:44Cain, don't worry. I will clean this whole mess up. Just as long as you promise to leave that woman.
01:09:54Don't insult Claire again or you'll regret it.
01:09:57Fine. If that's how you want to do this. But don't blame me when I pull all of my investments.
01:10:06And when Ecologix is in crisis, don't come begging.
01:10:11Well, there's no need to worry about that.
01:10:14Cain has already received a $5 billion investment from the Montgomery Group.
01:10:19So, he doesn't need your money anymore.
01:10:24So, you're Claire.
01:10:28You think you can steal Cain from me?
01:10:32Over my dead body.
01:10:35Cain and I have the freedom to marry whoever we want.
01:10:38You are just a hotel receptionist.
01:10:42Cain is way out of your league.
01:10:46As am I.
01:10:47Whether I'm a hotel receptionist or a CEO, I have the freedom to do what makes me happy.
01:11:00What? What are you doing? Get away! Get away from there!
01:11:06You are going to get your filth all over the Montgomery Throne.
01:11:09This throne is mine.
01:11:23She's lost it! She actually sat on the Montgomery Throne!
01:11:28Get down from there right now!
01:11:29Please, this is the CEO's seat.
01:11:33We're going to get in trouble.
01:11:35Relax. I've got you covered.
01:11:39No one will mess with you here.
01:11:41You all heard that, right?
01:11:47This is who your energy king admires.
01:11:53Not only did she convince Cain to embezzle funds, but now she's impersonating Miss Montgomery.
01:12:01She's got some nerve. On the day of our CEO's gala no less.
01:12:06You are such a fraud!
01:12:09You know, impersonating Miss Montgomery and embezzling funds are both very serious crimes.
01:12:14I have the shareholders on their way right now to espouse you.
01:12:19You know, in the five years since I founded the Montgomery Group, I've faced thousands of challenges.
01:12:28Your little tricks don't lose it.
01:12:31Hey!
01:12:33Who's causing all this noise?
01:12:35Gentlemen, there is a woman here who is impersonating Miss Montgomery.
01:12:40But don't worry, I'm about to have her kicked out.
01:12:43Who's impersonating Miss Montgomery?
01:12:47Hi, Sam.
01:12:49Hi, Derek.
01:12:54Long time no see.
01:12:57Eliza, is she the one you're claiming is impersonating Miss Montgomery?
01:13:02Uh, yes.
01:13:04Somehow, she convinced Ben to embezzle the five billion that was meant for Milo.
01:13:08Please, help me get my investment back and punish her!
01:13:14Shut up!
01:13:18There...
01:13:20There's gotta be some kind of mistake here!
01:13:23She's the imposter!
01:13:25I know exactly who she is.
01:13:28Greetings, Miss Montgomery.
01:13:29Miss Montgomery.
01:13:34What?
01:13:38Claire...
01:13:40Is Miss Montgomery.
01:13:42Listen up.
01:13:43This...
01:13:44This...
01:13:45Is Miss Montgomery.
01:13:47Of Montgomery Group.
01:13:50The richest person on the continent.
01:13:54Disrespect her.
01:13:56And you're going against the entire company.
01:13:59Claire, what's going on?
01:14:01Are you really the CEO?
01:14:04I should have told you sooner, Kane, but...
01:14:07Past experiences made me cautious.
01:14:11But now I can confidently say to you...
01:14:15I am Claire Montgomery.
01:14:17CEO of Montgomery Group.
01:14:19The Montgomery Group.
01:14:22Impossible.
01:14:25She can't be the CEO.
01:14:27She's just a hotel worker.
01:14:29A woman I left behind!
01:14:31Watch your mouth.
01:14:33I won't hesitate to bury you myself.
01:14:45Why didn't you tell me you were the CEO?
01:14:46I told you the funds were from me.
01:14:50That your success was built on my resources.
01:14:53But did you believe me?
01:14:55No.
01:14:57I don't want to see this person anymore.
01:15:00I'm sorry.
01:15:04Okay, I was wrong.
01:15:06Please take me back.
01:15:08Let's start over.
01:15:09Milo, you're choosing her over me?
01:15:12Shut up!
01:15:14You've ruined me.
01:15:16This is all your fault.
01:15:19Claire.
01:15:21My cancer testing research is just about to launch.
01:15:23Please.
01:15:24Please, there's going to be huge returns.
01:15:25Please, take me back.
01:15:34Here's the feasibility report for your research.
01:15:40It's a scam.
01:15:41A dream you've spun for yourself.
01:15:42It's over.
01:15:43Milo Preston.
01:15:44You're under arrest for fraud and illegally obtaining funds.
01:15:45Could've been a renowned entrepreneur with Claire.
01:15:46I threw it all away.
01:15:47Yeah.
01:15:48You two are going to wait for a really long time.
01:15:49Come on.
01:15:51I thought that you were willing to throw it all away for your so-called freedom.
01:15:53I thought that you were willing to throw it all away for your so-called freedom.
01:15:54But turns out you were just in it for the money.
01:15:55I thought that you were willing to throw it all away for your so-called freedom.
01:16:01But turns out you were just in it for the money.
01:16:02Your understanding of love is shallow.
01:16:03I thought that you were willing to throw it all away for your so-called freedom.
01:16:08But turns out you were just in it for the money.
01:16:14Your understanding of love is shallow.
01:16:15Wealth is the least of Claire's qualities.
01:16:16She's kind, optimistic.
01:16:17She treats everyone equal regardless of their status and their wealth.
01:16:18I thought that you were willing to throw it all away for your so-called freedom.
01:16:19I thought that you were willing to throw it all away for your so-called freedom.
01:16:21But turns out you were just in it for the money.
01:16:24Your understanding of love is shallow.
01:16:30Wealth is the least of Claire's qualities.
01:16:35She's kind, optimistic.
01:16:36She treats everyone equal regardless of their status and their wealth.
01:16:45That's what I love most about her.
01:16:48So you're saying I don't have any redeeming qualities?
01:16:52Everyone has redeeming qualities, including you.
01:16:56But love is to surrender free will.
01:17:02Love is simply love.
01:17:09Cain, I've never heard you talk that way about anybody.
01:17:13Oh, well, I give up.
01:17:17Love is the most important thing in a marriage and it's obvious that you two have that.
01:17:29Allow me to reintroduce this.
01:17:31I'm Cain Hudson, Stanford grad, founder of Ecologics.
01:17:41Claire Montgomery, CEO of Montgomery Group.
01:17:46Divorced.
01:17:48Well, time is of the essence.
01:17:51I never wanted to go along with the arranged marriage my grandfather planned.
01:17:56I choose to marry the woman I truly love.
01:18:00Miss Montgomery, will you marry me?
01:18:05Well, Mr. Hudson, only there were roses here.
01:18:10I might actually consider it.
01:18:12Surprise!
01:18:13I made it happen.
01:18:14You may not kiss your eye.
01:18:15You may not kiss your eye.
01:18:16No.
01:18:17You may not kiss your eye.
01:18:18No.
01:18:19No.
01:18:20No.
01:18:21No.
01:18:22No.
01:18:23No.
01:18:24You may not kiss your eye.
