00:00Sadie and I sat down quietly among Mrs. Lancaster's relatives, who were glaring at us.
00:05Why are we here exactly? Just wait for it, it's gonna be fun.
00:09Ladies and gentlemen, we are gathered here today for the reading of the late Mrs. Lancaster's will,
00:15who was a woman of remarkable character and...
00:18Blah, blah, blah, snooze fest, get to the good part, man.
00:21Upon careful examination of the will, it is clear that Mrs. Lancaster has left her entire fortune
00:27worth $10 million to one individual, Miss Sadie.
00:32There was a stunned silence, then Sadie burst into tears.
00:36Oh my god, I'm shocked. What have I done to deserve this?
00:40Other than being her only friend for the last two years, still, you can't put a price on love.
00:45Not even $10 million. But I'm so touched.
00:50Suddenly, Mrs. Lancaster's relatives ran towards the lawyer, yelling at him,
00:55tearing his shirt, and throwing his files across the room, while Sadie turned to me and grinned.
01:00Hi, I'm Chloe, and before I explain what happened here, please like and subscribe.
01:05My older sister and I were two years apart, and nothing alike.
01:09Sadie was beautiful with her blonde hair and blue eyes, while I had dark, messy hair,
01:14and my eyes were the color of poop.
01:16I was shy and introverted, but Sadie craved attention, and she knew how to get it.
01:21Like once when we were attending a friend's birthday party, Sadie started to cry right before the cake cutting.
01:27What's wrong, sweetie?
01:29Oh, I'm sorry. It's just that I haven't had a birthday party since my mom fell sick, and there's no cure.
01:38What's wrong with my... Ow!
01:40Oh, you poor darling. Why don't you cut this cake? Go on, make a wish.
01:46Or the time she knew she was about to lose the art competition to a more talented kid,
01:51so she threw herself on the ground and started having a pretend seizure, from which she recovered full...
01:57Oh, this happens when I haven't slept or eaten for days.
02:01I've just been working so hard on this art piece.
02:04And the judges gave her the award instead.
02:07Growing up, it felt like the spotlight always followed my popular sister while I lived in the shadows,
02:13which I really didn't mind.
02:14I loved taking pictures and was the happiest behind my camera lens with Sadie as my favorite muse.
02:20And even though Sadie loved herself the most, I was a close second.
02:23What do you mean my sister's project isn't good enough?
02:26This isn't Harvard, it's just your dumb class.
02:28You don't have space on your party guest list for Chloe?
02:31Well, you could get a life and uninvite your mom.
02:34Sadie's friend had invited a great band to her party, and I had a blast.
02:39Thanks for bringing me, sis. This party's the coolest.
02:42This party's a dump, and so is this town.
02:44I'll take you to A-list parties when I'm a Hollywood star, Chloe.
02:48Which is inevitable. I mean, look at this face. It's a moneymaker.
02:52My parents owned a small grocery store, and while we weren't rich, we were comfortable.
02:56They promised to send Sadie to an acting academy in L.A. after high school.
03:00To make some extra money, Sadie started working as a companion to Mrs. Lancaster,
03:05a rich old lady in our town.
03:06Sadie would often sneak me into her mansion, and I'd spend hours in her library.
03:11Life was good, but soon after I turned 16,
03:14we woke up to the horrible news one morning
03:16that an electrical fire had burned our grocery store to the ground.
03:20Your mother and I will have to start looking for jobs.
03:22Sadie, we are so sorry, but we can't send you to L.A.
03:26Surprisingly, Sadie took the news really well.
03:29She kept working at Mrs. Lancaster's place for the next few months,
03:32till one day she came home with the news that the old lady had passed.
03:36Which brings us to the day after,
03:38where the lawyer announced that Mrs. Lancaster had left everything to Sadie,
03:41and her family started a riot.
03:43But she was perfectly calm as we walked out of there.
03:46I'll finalize the paperwork with the lawyer later.
03:48Hold on, Sadie.
03:49You already knew Mrs. Lancaster was leaving you everything, didn't you?
03:53It wasn't a hard guess.
03:54She didn't love her family very much.
03:56I don't think she loved you that much either.
03:58I know you did something.
04:00Fine.
04:01I just encouraged her to make a new will some time ago.
04:04But she decided everything herself.
04:06She was like 90 and half crazy, Sadie.
04:09The last time I saw her,
04:10she accused me of stealing apples from her mother's farm.
04:13Can you focus on what's important here?
04:15I'm a freaking millionaire now, Chloe.
04:17We can't take this money.
04:19It's not ours.
04:20You're right.
04:20It's mine.
04:21Just think of how much easier I can make things for mom and dad.
04:24Don't go telling them your stupid theories and let me help them.
04:28After that day, our lives just flipped upside down.
04:31We moved into Mrs. Lancaster's mansion.
04:33My parents started rebuilding their store,
04:35and Sadie hired herself an expensive acting coach.
04:38Suddenly, we were eating off silver platters and had maids and butlers.
04:42And Sadie was ordering dresses from Paris, shoes from Milan, and perfumes from London.
04:47I could send you to an amazing private school, Chloe.
04:50No thanks.
04:51Could you at least let me upgrade your wardrobe?
04:54Not interested.
04:55Okay, look.
04:55A brand new camera.
04:57You should start your photography channel.
04:59I'll buy you followers to give you a head start.
05:01Can you just stop?
05:02Sadie, you made an old lady sign over her fortune to you and robbed her family.
05:07How do you even sleep at night?
05:09Extremely well on my feather bed and Egyptian cotton sheets.
05:12And sometimes, if I can't sleep, I count sheep.
05:15But instead of wool, my sheep have dollar bills on them.
05:18And instead of jumping on grass, they're jumping on more dollar bills.
05:22That helps me sleep like a baby.
05:24But I just couldn't accept what Sadie had done.
05:27And this created a rift between us.
05:29Things really came to a head when Sadie hosted a party one evening
05:32where she was showing off a Taylor Swift shoe she'd bought at an auction for $75,000.
05:38You need to return that.
05:40Sweetie, you sound hysterical.
05:42Why don't you take your medication and lie down?
05:44No, you need to sell it and return the money to its rightful owners.
05:48In fact, we need to return everything.
05:50Don't even think about touching the shoe.
05:52I'm warning you.
05:54Sadie leapt at me and we ended up in a huge fight till our parents broke us apart.
05:58And when we were alone, I ended up telling them everything.
06:02My parents were horrified.
06:04I don't care what any of you think.
06:05I'm over 18 and I'm the legal, rightful owner of this fortune.
06:09You want to go back to the life you had?
06:10Then go!
06:11My parents returned the money Sadie had given them for the store
06:14and we left for our old house that night.
06:17The next day, we found out that Sadie had put the mansion up for sale and moved to LA.
06:22It broke my heart that things had turned out this way between us.
06:25Mom and Dad returned to their jobs and I wanted to help.
06:27I made a website offering my photography services
06:30and also started a YouTube channel sharing tutorials.
06:33By the time I graduated high school, I was making decent money from both.
06:36Soon after, I had my first ever solo exhibition.
06:40And for my showstopper, I went to the lake at dawn to capture the sunrise.
06:44I was about to take my best photo yet when a loud noise startled me.
06:48A boy was kneeling a few feet away, crying loudly.
06:51Eyes, look your last.
06:53Arms, take your last embrace.
06:56And lips, oh, uh, lips, uh, do something too.
07:00Would you mind going somewhere else, Romeo?
07:02I'm trying to work here.
07:03The boy turned to me in surprise and...
07:05Wow, was he a looker!
07:07I'm working here too, babe.
07:08I'm an actor and...
07:09Really?
07:10I thought you were a madman.
07:11I have an important audition and this is my usual practice spot.
07:15Fine.
07:16I just need 20 minutes here and I'd appreciate some peace.
07:19I turned away to my camera and found the boy posing in front of me.
07:23Um, do you mind?
07:25Not at all, babe.
07:26Take as many photos as you want.
07:27I meant, could you move?
07:29An action shot.
07:30I like it.
07:31What should I do?
07:31Uh, maybe a headstand or flex my biceps?
07:34Was he dumb or what?
07:36Okay, how about one of you gazing out at the water dramatically?
07:40The boy looked out at the water and immediately started crying.
07:43Was that good?
07:44How about one without the ugly crying?
07:47Yeah, that's perfect.
07:48I'm Blake, by the way.
07:49Follow me on Insta at Blake is a Greek God.
07:51Not gonna happen.
07:52Good luck and goodbye.
07:53The picture with Blake actually turned out amazing.
07:57And I was shocked when some art collector at the exhibition offered to purchase it for $5,000.
08:02Later that night, I did end up finding Blake the Greek God on Instagram
08:06and sent him a message asking if he'd meet me at a cafe.
08:09I thought it was only fair that he got a cut from the money.
08:12I just knew you'd reach out to me.
08:13I could feel this instant electrical connection between us.
08:17Wow, I feel nothing but regret.
08:20Here's the check I promised.
08:21See you never.
08:22Oh, come on.
08:23A cup of coffee won't hurt.
08:24I actually want to hire you for some headshots to send along with my audition tapes to Hollywood.
08:28You want to go to Hollywood?
08:29Of course.
08:30I mean, look at his face.
08:31It's a work of art.
08:33I guess a cup of coffee won't hurt.
08:35Great.
08:35Has anyone ever told you your eyes are the most beautiful brown?
08:38They remind me of autumn leaves and hot chocolate.
08:41My eyes are the color of poop.
08:43You really need someone to talk you up, babe.
08:46I'm new in town and I have no friends, so I'm happy to stick around and do the job.
08:50He really meant that.
08:51He came off vain and silly at first, but he was actually sweet and funny.
08:55He'd often accompany me on my shoots and carry around my bags.
08:59And his idea of a good time was watching movies at home, eating pizza, and wearing face masks.
09:04I should take a picture of that and post it.
09:07You look so manly.
09:08Yeah, babe.
09:09Real men exfoliate their skin and talk about their feelings.
09:13He felt like the first real friend after Sadie, yet it was so different.
09:17Sadie had always overshadowed me, and I'd been fine being my sister's sidekick.
09:21But Blake always made me feel like the main character.
09:24And slowly, I found myself falling for him.
09:27One day, as I was editing some photos in my studio, Blake burst in and spun my chair around.
09:33You're going to Hollywood, babe.
09:35What?
09:35A big producer loved my audition tape, and he's casting me in his new movie.
09:39Turns out, he was also looking for a photographer for the promo stuff, and I recommended you.
09:44That's amazing!
09:46I'm so happy for you!
09:47For us?
09:48And suddenly, his face turned serious.
09:51You already know that I'm not well off, and Dad's in a wheelchair.
09:54His mom used to live in this town, but Dad was in the army, and he was posted abroad,
09:58so we haven't been able to visit in years.
10:00She died two years ago, and my family was gonna inherit her wealth, which could have
10:04really helped us after Dad's injury.
10:06But apparently, Grandma's caregiver tricked her into giving her all her fortune.
10:10My blood ran cold at his words.
10:13It's been tough, and sometimes, I've thought about just giving up the Hollywood dream.
10:17But it looks like things are finally turning around, and you're my lucky charm, Chloe.
10:22I think I'm in love with you.
10:23He pulled me close and kissed me, but it felt terrible.
10:27I know, right?
10:28Me too.
10:29Uh, what's your grandma's name?
10:31Mrs. Lancaster.
10:32You okay, babe?
10:33Did my kiss take your breath away?
10:35It sure did!
10:36I tossed and turned all night.
10:39How could I tell Blake that my sister scammed his grandma?
10:42But how could I take this job without telling him?
10:44But the job was such an amazing opportunity, I couldn't let it slip away.
10:48Finally, I decided the only thing to do was to go to Hollywood, meet Sadie, and talk
10:52her into giving Blake's family the money.
10:54Before I knew it, Blake and I were in Hollywood and starting our first day on set.
10:58He got dragged away for hair and makeup.
11:00So I wandered around and started taking some pictures, when a familiar face appeared in front
11:05of my lens.
11:06Sadie?
11:07Chloe?
11:07What are you doing here?
11:09What are you doing here?
11:11I work here.
11:12Also, my Hollywood name is Sunday.
11:14I work here too.
11:15I'm the official photographer.
11:17Just then, Blake walked over.
11:19Hey, babe.
11:20I see you've met the heroine.
11:21She's a rising star in Hollywood, and I'm really excited about working together.
11:25But don't get any ideas Sunday.
11:27The movie romance is fake, cause this heart is taken.
11:30This was getting so much worse.
11:32Of course I'd meant to meet Sadie, but I hadn't planned on Blake meeting her, let alone
11:36working on the same movie.
11:38The next few weeks were so difficult.
11:41I had to watch my sister doing romantic scenes with my boyfriend, after which they would
11:45be whisked off for interviews.
11:47And any time I tried catching Sadie alone, she managed to slip away.
11:51So one day, I hid in the trunk of Sadie's car and followed her right to her apartment.
11:55I need to talk to you.
11:56Unless it's an apology, I don't want to hear it.
11:59Fine, it's an apology.
12:01Once I was in, I turned to her furiously.
12:04Of course it's not an apology.
12:05Sadie, you have to give back Mrs. Lancaster's money to her family.
12:09Oh my god, that again?
12:10You're worse than their family lawyer.
12:12Do you know who Blake is?
12:14He's Mrs. Lancaster's grandson.
12:16What?
12:17What does he know?
12:17That his grandma's caregiver tricked her and took all the money.
12:21But he doesn't know that's you, my sister, his lovely co-star, Sunday.
12:25Just then, there was a knock on the door.
12:27My yoga instructor's here.
12:29You need to leave.
12:30I had no choice, but this conversation wasn't over.
12:33When I returned to my hotel room, I found Blake sitting on the bed with his bags packed.
12:38Hey, what's going on?
12:40I think you butt-dialed me by mistake when you were meeting your sister.
12:43Sunday.
12:44No, Sadie, right?
12:45The person who took grandma's money?
12:47Blake, listen.
12:48How could you not tell me?
12:50I really wanted to, but then I thought you thought you'd keep quiet, use me, and take
12:54this job?
12:55No, of course not.
12:57I came here to talk to my sister, to make her return your money.
13:00You have to believe me.
13:02No, I don't.
13:03I wish I'd had the sense to record the conversation.
13:05But I'm not a schemer like you two.
13:07I won't work with her now, so I'm going home.
13:09You can't do that.
13:11This is an opportunity of a lifetime.
13:13And some things are more important than money.
13:15You wouldn't understand that.
13:17Blake laughed, and I was devastated.
13:19I tried to calm down, but I felt panic rising in my chest.
13:23First, my sister left me, and now the guy I loved.
13:26I couldn't stop crying, and I was struggling to breathe.
13:29Suddenly, I felt dizzy, and I blacked out.
13:32When I opened my eyes, I was in a hospital bed with Sadie beside me.
13:36Oh, thank God you're awake.
13:38What happened?
13:39I came to talk to you and found you unconscious.
13:41Blake found out everything and left.
13:43I think I just had a bad panic attack.
13:46Suddenly, Sadie started crying.
13:48Chloe, I would never intentionally hurt you, and I've missed you terribly.
13:53What hurt the most was knowing you thought I was evil.
13:57Yes, I pushed Mrs. Lancaster to make a new will, but she always said her only son hadn't
14:02visited in years, and the rest of her family were vultures.
14:05Those people didn't deserve the money either, trust me.
14:09You're still justifying what you did?
14:11I'm telling you now, Blake's family needs the money.
14:14How can you be sure he isn't lying?
14:16Are you sure he's even Mrs. Lancaster's grandson?
14:19I can't talk to you anymore.
14:21Just leave, Sadie.
14:22Listen, Chloe, no, go away.
14:25The next day on set was a mess.
14:27The producer was frantically trying to get in touch with Blake, but he wouldn't answer
14:31anyone's phone calls.
14:32I was sitting miserably in a corner when suddenly I got a phone call from Dad.
14:37Chloe, I know this is a lot to ask, but can you come home?
14:40A friend of mine has offered me an amazing opportunity to manage a huge grocery store,
14:44but it's in Texas, and I need all the help I can get.
14:47I know this is your dream job, but...
14:49That sounds amazing, Dad, and of course I'll help.
14:52I'll take the next flight home.
14:54As I hung up, I turned around to see Sadie behind me.
14:57You're leaving?
14:58Yeah, Dad needs my help with work.
15:00Listen, if Blake doesn't come back, they'll find a replacement soon, and this movie will
15:04be up and running in no time.
15:06You can't give up this job.
15:08It'll be so great for your career.
15:10You know what, Sadie?
15:11I can't believe I ever looked up to you or thought you cared about me.
15:14I hope your successful career keeps you warm at night, but I'd rather stay close to the
15:19people I love.
15:20And with that, I went back home.
15:21I helped my parents pack up to move, and one evening, I was carrying a box to our car
15:26when I bumped into someone.
15:27I looked up to see that it was...
15:29Blake?
15:29I wasn't expecting to see you here.
15:32You haven't answered any of my calls.
15:34Yeah.
15:35I was really angry.
15:36But then, Sadie reached out to me.
15:38In fact, she's inside your house right now, talking to your parents.
15:42Sadie is here?
15:43What did she say to you?
15:44She apologized for everything, and was giving me a check for $10 million, but I told her
15:49to keep half.
15:50She did take care of Grandma.
15:51Then, she begged me to come back to the movie because all the new candidates are ugly and
15:56don't look good with her.
15:57That sounds like Sadie.
15:59She also told me that you were never okay with her taking the money, and that she's been
16:03a terrible sister to you.
16:04I should have told you everything before.
16:07I should have given you a chance when you tried, and I'm really sorry.
16:10Listen, Sadie is giving some money to your parents so they can hire help for their
16:13business, and you don't have to go with them and give up on something you're really good
16:17at.
16:17Is there any chance you'd go back with me to Hollywood as my girlfriend?
16:21I can think about it.
16:22If you beg and grovel and give me a foot rub every day and forever?
16:25Sure, but can I give you a kiss first, babe?
16:28If you insist.
16:29Before that, may I hug you, sis?
