CEO Queen A Mother’s Revenge US ReelShort
Transcript
00:00:00Is my mom gonna be okay?
00:00:02There is a chance, but it'll cost 500,000.
00:00:06She's a lowlife worker. She doesn't deserve to be a mom.
00:00:10Fifteen years ago, my mother, Mary Miller, disappeared to live a quiet life in a small town.
00:00:15Hey, you old hag! Is anyone there? Speak up!
00:00:18Get your filthy hands off of her!
00:00:20Half a million, and she's all yours tonight.
00:00:24My mother is missing?
00:00:26Flip this city upside down. I don't care, but we're gonna find my mother.
00:00:30Get away from my daughter!
00:00:34It can't be her.
00:00:36Welcome back, boss.
00:00:39That's impossible.
00:00:40She's a fraud!
00:00:42You make me sick!
00:00:43You won't live to see another day.
00:00:46I'm so sorry it took so long, mother.
00:00:48She's the CEO of Phoenix Group?
00:00:51You'll all be on your knees, begging for mercy.
00:01:00Doctor, is my mom gonna be okay?
00:01:17I'm sorry, Grace. She has a brain hemorrhage.
00:01:21With immediate surgery, there is a chance, but...
00:01:28It'll cost $500,000.
00:01:30$500?
00:01:31I don't have that kind of money, but mom needs me.
00:01:34I'll find a way to get the money.
00:01:36Please, just save my mom.
00:01:38I can do that.
00:01:42Grace Miller!
00:01:43Oh, Rose!
00:01:44Well, thank God you two are here.
00:01:46Mom was working at the orphanage when she fainted,
00:01:48and it's gonna cost $500,000.
00:01:50$500,000?!
00:01:53And where are we supposed to get that?
00:01:56Call off the surgery, Doc.
00:01:57There's no way we're paying for that.
00:01:59Rose, what are you saying?
00:02:01She's our mom.
00:02:02She adopted us.
00:02:03You can't just force us to grow up dirt poor.
00:02:06She's a low-life worker.
00:02:07She doesn't deserve to be a mom.
00:02:09If it wasn't for her, we could have been adopted by someone rich!
00:02:12You guys hear yourself.
00:02:14She took us in when we had nothing.
00:02:16She gave us a home.
00:02:18She made sure that we were never hungry,
00:02:20and you're just mad at her because she's not rich?
00:02:22Speaking of money, today's mom's paid it.
00:02:28This is mom's.
00:02:29Don't you dare touch it!
00:02:31No!
00:02:32No!
00:02:33No!
00:02:34No!
00:02:35No!
00:02:36No!
00:02:37No, Mom worked hard for that!
00:02:38Should be enough for a new iPhone, though.
00:02:53Mom needs that money for her surgery.
00:02:55You can't just take it!
00:02:56Sure we can.
00:02:57That old hag's about to die.
00:02:58Her money's ours now.
00:03:00You want money?
00:03:01Pick it up!
00:03:15Consider this our donation to mom's surgery.
00:03:17Or a funeral.
00:03:18I'll save you, Mom.
00:03:19I can sell blood for money.
00:03:20This is the only way I might be able to save Mom.
00:03:22I can sell blood for money.
00:03:23I can sell blood for money.
00:03:24This is the only way I might be able to save Mom.
00:03:29I can sell blood for money.
00:03:30I can sell blood for money.
00:03:32This is the only way I might be able to save Mom.
00:03:36I can sell blood for money.
00:03:41This is the only way I might be able to save mom.
00:04:06Go ahead and take a seat, guys.
00:04:22Look, I've gathered you all here today for a very important announcement.
00:04:25Fifteen years ago, my mother, Mary Miller, disappeared to live a quiet life in a small town.
00:04:30But now, she is returning to take her rightful place as the CEO of the Phoenix Group, ladies and gentlemen.
00:04:37The CEO has finally returned.
00:04:39Miss Miller raised her son alone to build Phoenix Group.
00:04:42Now, after 15 years, she's coming back.
00:04:45Even out of the public eye, she remains a legend.
00:04:48No one can match what she built.
00:04:50See, although my mother's been living in seclusion, we've remained in contact over the years.
00:04:55And she's adopted three children, who I believe will be joining our company very soon.
00:04:59Sir, we can't find your mother. She isn't answering our calls.
00:05:04What? My mother is missing?
00:05:09I want to sell my blood. Please.
00:05:12I have an extremely rare blood type. Type AB negative.
00:05:17You need it, and I need money for my mother's surgery. Please.
00:05:29We are at 400. I have to stop now, or you'll pass out.
00:05:45No, no. Don't stop. I can do it.
00:05:47I just keep...
00:05:51Miss?
00:05:52I just keep...
00:05:53Miss? Miss? Miss? Miss? Miss?
00:05:58Miss?
00:05:58Grace.
00:06:13Grace.
00:06:14I told you to go home and rest.
00:06:16You just fainted from donating all that blood.
00:06:19I'm fine, doctor.
00:06:21How's my mom?
00:06:22Well, the operation was a success, but Grace, with your mother's condition, we're looking at some very expensive long-term care.
00:06:30Oh, I got it, doctor. She's my mom. I won't give up on her.
00:06:36She's very lucky to have you. I'll go work on the list of her medication.
00:06:40You adopted me, mom.
00:06:48You taught me what family was, love is.
00:06:54Don't worry. I'm not going to give up on you.
00:06:57I'm going to make sure you get better.
00:06:58It's been hours. Where is Miss Miller?
00:07:10If Miss Miller says she's returning, then she will be coming back.
00:07:14Otherwise, Mr. Miller will find her.
00:07:17When she left 15 years ago, she made all of us.
00:07:20Even Mr. Miller promised never to search for her.
00:07:25Did you reach her?
00:07:26Her phone is completely dead.
00:07:28She'd never let that happen.
00:07:29Not on the day that she's supposed to return.
00:07:33Something's not right.
00:07:36Do whatever it takes.
00:07:37Flip this city upside down.
00:07:39I don't care, but we're going to find my mother.
00:07:41Yes, sir.
00:07:42Yes, sir.
00:07:49One day at work here, we'll cover three days of mom's medication.
00:07:58Next.
00:08:01Sir, I'm here to work.
00:08:03Please, if there's any opportunity that you have, I would gladly take it.
00:08:07Come on, Grace.
00:08:08Everyone knows you passed out yesterday at the hospital.
00:08:11I can't have you dying on my sight.
00:08:12I'll lose my damn job.
00:08:13No, please, please.
00:08:15I'm begging you.
00:08:16Please, I really need the money.
00:08:18My mom will die without it.
00:08:19But with treatment, I mean, there's a chance that she may wake up.
00:08:24But if I give up, it's over for her.
00:08:26Please.
00:08:28If I catch you slacking off one time, I won't pay you a single penny.
00:08:36Thank you so much.
00:08:38You can trust me.
00:08:38I am a hard worker.
00:08:41Next.
00:08:41Don't worry, Mom.
00:08:46I'll make enough money, and you'll get better.
00:09:07All right, time for lunch.
00:09:09Get back to work as soon as you're finished.
00:09:11Grace.
00:09:16Lucy, what's wrong?
00:09:17You have to get home right now, Grace.
00:09:19Your sister and brother are selling your mom's house.
00:09:28We've turned this whole house upside down.
00:09:31I can't believe the old hag doesn't even have any savings.
00:09:33Whatever, just forget it.
00:09:35Let's get down to business.
00:09:36Where's the inheritance letter?
00:09:38You see this, Mom?
00:09:40You ruined our life.
00:09:41I had a better chance with a rich family.
00:09:44Now, with just one little stamp here, you'll give us what we deserve.
00:09:48As if this old hag can hear you.
00:09:50Just get it over with already.
00:09:51Mom, Mom, are you okay?
00:10:06You're trying to steal Mom's house?
00:10:08You can't do that.
00:10:09Mom worked hard for it.
00:10:10Fine.
00:10:11If she doesn't want us to sell it, then we won't.
00:10:13Go on.
00:10:16Say it.
00:10:16Say it.
00:10:17Hey, you old hag.
00:10:18Is anyone there?
00:10:20Hello?
00:10:20Can you speak up?
00:10:21Speak up!
00:10:22Get your filthy hands off of her.
00:10:24Be honest.
00:10:26You don't actually give a shit about Mom.
00:10:29You're just putting on a little show, hoping she'll magically wake up and give you everything.
00:10:33That's not true.
00:10:34That's...
00:10:34Aw, poor little Grace, trying so hard and your mommy can't even see.
00:10:39If you don't want to take care of Mom, that's fine.
00:10:43I'll do it myself.
00:10:44But I'm not going to let you take anything away from her.
00:10:46Try and stop us.
00:10:48No!
00:10:55Mom?
00:10:57Mom?
00:10:58Your finger's moving.
00:11:01Would you look at that?
00:11:03She's actually losing it.
00:11:06I saw it.
00:11:07Her finger's moving.
00:11:08She's trying to tell us something.
00:11:09Mom's brain is mush.
00:11:11The only thing moving in her head are the worms eating the rest of it out.
00:11:31You stupid bitch.
00:11:32I'm tired of repeating myself, Mom is dying, dead people don't need a house.
00:11:37You know, William and I just want the best for you, little sis.
00:11:43Say, you and the mayor's son are the same age, right?
00:11:47Mayor's daughter-in-law sounds awfully nice.
00:11:51What?
00:11:52The mayor's daughter-in-law?
00:11:54After you and the mayor's son tie the knot, we'll send that to a nursing home far, far away.
00:12:05She takes up too much space here.
00:12:06She takes up too much space here.
00:12:08So there's the bride for my son.
00:12:18Well, son, she's the girl you said you liked, right?
00:12:21A real virgin.
00:12:22A real virgin.
00:12:23Just like me.
00:12:24All the other girls, they always run away.
00:12:27But not you.
00:12:28You'll be my first.
00:12:30Time to make you mad.
00:12:32I'm gonna make you mad.
00:12:33No, no!
00:12:34Don't touch me!
00:12:44No, no!
00:12:45Don't touch me!
00:12:47You can't say no to me!
00:12:48My dad owns this town.
00:12:49Nobody says no to me.
00:12:51Look at you, acting so high and mighty.
00:12:54You're still selling your blood, aren't you?
00:12:56Just for a few pennies.
00:12:58We offer you a way out of poverty, and this is the way you repay us.
00:13:04Do you know how rich and powerful the mayor is?
00:13:07Mom's gonna die because you're too proud to spread your legs for the mayor's son.
00:13:12I'm not going to marry him.
00:13:15Don't you see, Grace?
00:13:16William and I are doing this for you and Mom.
00:13:19You should be grateful.
00:13:21Half a million, and she's all yours tonight.
00:13:23Steep price for an orphan.
00:13:25I don't care, Dad!
00:13:26You promised me I can have her, and I want her.
00:13:29Give them what they want.
00:13:31If you want a grandson or not, she can work for us.
00:13:34Nice to meet you.
00:13:35Ah!
00:13:40Pleasure doing business with you, sir.
00:13:42My sister's all yours.
00:13:44No!
00:13:45No!
00:13:46No!
00:13:47No!
00:13:48No!
00:13:49No, Mom!
00:13:50Mom!
00:13:51Please!
00:13:52Don't let them take me, Mom!
00:13:53No!
00:13:54No!
00:13:55Yes!
00:13:56No one sells my daughter.
00:13:58No one sells my daughter.
00:14:23Get away from my daughter.
00:14:28Oh, Mom, thank God you're awake.
00:14:33Don't scare us like that again, okay?
00:14:36I didn't know what to do.
00:14:38Yeah, Mom.
00:14:39We're so happy to have you back.
00:14:41It looks like you know exactly what you're doing.
00:14:48Selling the house.
00:14:50No, Mom, you have the wrong idea.
00:14:53We were selling the house to help pay for your treatment.
00:14:56Treatment?
00:14:57You didn't even want to pay for Mom's surgery.
00:14:58Don't listen to Grace's lies, Mom.
00:15:01William and I have been working day and night to pay for your surgery.
00:15:05No, that's not true.
00:15:06I was selling my blood to pay back-
00:15:09Grace, I know you seduced the mayor's son and are about to marry into a powerful family,
00:15:13but that doesn't mean you can lie to Mom's face.
00:15:15Grace was trying to marry into the mayor's family so she didn't have to take care of you.
00:15:19Rose and I had no choice but to sell the house.
00:15:21Enough!
00:15:22Just because I had my eyes closed doesn't mean that I didn't hear everything you said.
00:15:30And not only were you trying to just sell the house, but you were trying to sell your sister, Grace, as well!
00:15:38Mom, I'm so glad you're awake. I didn't know what else to do.
00:15:42Oh, my sweet daughter. I hurt everything. Everything you did to keep me safe.
00:15:49Your mother will make these ingrits pay for what they did to you.
00:15:55This, this is just a silly house.
00:16:03And I would have given it to you without a second thought.
00:16:06But now, after the stunt that you two pulled, you won't get anything.
00:16:15Well, William and I would have considered looking after you if you were even moderate.
00:16:25You're really wealthy, but you're just poor.
00:16:28Do you know how goddamn embarrassing it is to call your mother?
00:16:34Embarrassing? When we were orphans, nobody wanted us.
00:16:39Mom gave us a home. She saved us.
00:16:42Saved us? I didn't choose the shitty life she offered us.
00:16:48Poor people shouldn't drag others into their suffering.
00:16:51That's not fair. Take it back.
00:16:55You see this, you old hag?
00:16:58We already have your signature and fingerprint on the inheritance letter.
00:17:02It's too late to stop us now.
00:17:04You're not getting anything from me.
00:17:07Not a single cent.
00:17:10Grace, do you have my phone?
00:17:15Oh, Grace, this is your mom's phone. You can keep it for now.
00:17:19Doctor, this phone is really nice.
00:17:21Are you sure it belongs to my mom?
00:17:23We took it from her pocket right before the surgery.
00:17:36Miss Miller.
00:17:42Alexander.
00:17:44It's me.
00:17:46My mother was in danger.
00:17:51Thanks to her adopted daughter, Grace.
00:17:53She's safe in a small town.
00:17:55I'm heading over there to bring her back home.
00:17:57Someone who dares to threaten Miss Miller must be insane.
00:18:00Let us come with you, sir.
00:18:01We should all be there to welcome her back.
00:18:03And we'll show those who crossed her who's boss.
00:18:10Sir, I've sent John Smith to check on your mother.
00:18:13Make sure he keeps her safe until I get there.
00:18:15These people are going to regret her for crossing her.
00:18:17Yes, sir.
00:18:17Come in, mother.
00:18:19Wait, she has another son?
00:18:21No idea who the guy is.
00:18:22Wonder where she found this guy.
00:18:24Probably fished him out of a dumpster.
00:18:26Bet he's just as pathetic as she is.
00:18:28Another worthless charity case.
00:18:31Stop it.
00:18:32That's your brother you're talking about.
00:18:34Relax, Grace.
00:18:37Soon they'll be on their knees begging for forgiveness.
00:18:40Who do you think you are, you old hag?
00:18:42Some kind of superhero?
00:18:44The mayor is related to Mr. Smith.
00:18:46The man who transformed the Sterling Corp into the Phoenix Group's biggest subsidiary.
00:18:52He can make any person disappear.
00:18:54And guess what?
00:18:56They just called them about Gregory's wedding.
00:18:58He should be here at any moment.
00:19:00Mr. Smith?
00:19:01You mean John?
00:19:03Speaking as if she knows him personally.
00:19:05The man controls billions.
00:19:07The nerve on this woman.
00:19:09Let me explain something to you.
00:19:11Phoenix Group isn't just some company.
00:19:14They own everything.
00:19:16They're untouchable gods among men.
00:19:20She probably thinks Phoenix Group is just some birdwatching club.
00:19:25Mark my words.
00:19:27You'll all be on your knees begging for mercy.
00:19:30And when John Smith gets here, he's gonna be trembling in his boots.
00:19:44Mr. Smith has important business to attend to.
00:19:50Starting now, all roads headed to the town are closed off.
00:19:54I heard Mr. Smith has barely been seen in public ever since Miss Miller went into hiding.
00:19:58Wow.
00:19:59If Mr. Smith is going out like this, he must be doing business with a really important person.
00:20:04I never thought I'd ever meet Miss Miller in person.
00:20:06This is a once in a lifetime chance.
00:20:09She's the pride of the city.
00:20:11But sir, we don't even have a photo of her.
00:20:13We don't know what she looks like.
00:20:14I have other matters to attend to in that town anyway.
00:20:17Let's move out.
00:20:18We'll grab the photo later.
00:20:19Wait, you think Mr. Smith will kneel before someone like you?
00:20:29Oh, don't make me laugh.
00:20:30Oh, she's completely delusional.
00:20:34Enough.
00:20:35I won't stand here and let you insult my mother like this.
00:20:40Know your place and shut up, you stupid bitch.
00:20:42Lay a hand on my daughter one more time and I'll make sure you don't use that hand again.
00:20:57What's wrong?
00:20:57Our money not good enough for you?
00:21:00Fine.
00:21:01Name your price.
00:21:03Everything has one, just like you.
00:21:08Oh, how amusing.
00:21:10You think that you can buy me off?
00:21:14I would love to see you try.
00:21:20Word is Miss Miller has an adoptive daughter, Grace, that's been taking care of her.
00:21:24Without her, we might not see Miss Miller again.
00:21:27Miss Grace Miller must be someone special.
00:21:29There aren't a lot of daughters like her out there.
00:21:32It's me.
00:21:34Make sure to arrange an exceptional gift for Miss Miller.
00:21:37And prepare something special for Grace Miller.
00:21:40Only the best for the girl that saved Miss Miller.
00:21:45Sir, uh, John Smith should be arriving to town any moment now.
00:21:48The signal there is terrible.
00:21:50I just sent him a photo of Miss Miller.
00:21:51He should be receiving it shortly.
00:21:53Look, my mother likes to keep low profile.
00:21:55So I want you to tell our people to shut down the entire neighborhood, okay?
00:21:59I don't want anyone seeing my mother.
00:22:00Yes, sir.
00:22:01You think that you can buy me?
00:22:04Well, just look at you.
00:22:06Wearing those rags, living in this filthy place.
00:22:10And you have the nerve to reject my son.
00:22:13People like you should be on your knees, kissing our feet.
00:22:17Thanking us for the chance at a better life.
00:22:20Your son is a worthless parasite that vultures would refuse to eat.
00:22:28How dare you speak that way about my son?
00:22:43I was abandoned as a child.
00:22:50When I was 15 years old, my mom took me in and gave me a home.
00:22:54You may just see her as another nobody.
00:22:58Working lowly jobs with little money.
00:23:01But to me, she's the greatest mom in the world.
00:23:05She's my everything.
00:23:07And I'm not just gonna stand here and let you humiliate her.
00:23:10Boo hoo.
00:23:11I'm in tears.
00:23:12Who cares if we insult this old hag?
00:23:15My husband is the mayor.
00:23:17And we can do anything we want as a matter of fact.
00:23:21My son can take you right here.
00:23:23And right now if he wants.
00:23:28Time to teach my wife some manners.
00:23:30No, no, no.
00:23:31Take that, please.
00:23:32You will all gratis.
00:23:36No, take that, please.
00:23:45Holy shit.
00:23:46Is that John Smith?
00:23:48The mayor's got some family problems from what I hear.
00:23:50And he's probably just here to help them out.
00:23:53That's all.
00:23:58What the hell?
00:23:58What the hell?
00:23:58No, no, no.
00:23:59Help.
00:23:59Go where?
00:24:00No.
00:24:00No.
00:24:02I could assure you the consequences for spreading unverified rumors in front of Mr. Smith are serious.
00:24:08Mr. Smith, please let us go.
00:24:10Please, sir.
00:24:11Let us go.
00:24:11We had nothing to do with this.
00:24:13You should be talking to that family over there who rejected the mayor's son.
00:24:18You're lying.
00:24:20Who dare reject Gregory Warren?
00:24:22Don't they know he's related to Mr. Smith?
00:24:23We're not lying, sir.
00:24:25You can see for yourself.
00:24:26Our house is at the end of this road.
00:24:28All right.
00:24:30Looks like I'll have to take care of this myself.
00:24:32Don't let go of me.
00:24:34Let go of me.
00:24:42Hit her again, mother.
00:24:44We offer you everything and you choose to stay in this filth?
00:24:48Fine.
00:24:49Stay here and rot.
00:24:50My mother's love means everything to me.
00:24:53I'd rather stay in poverty by her side than live in a cage without her.
00:24:59Too bad that's not your decision to make.
00:25:02Mr. Smith, he actually came.
00:25:08Only the famous John Smith could arrive in such style.
00:25:12Mr. Smith, thank you for coming.
00:25:14What's going on here?
00:25:16You're related to someone like me.
00:25:17Finding your son a wife should be the easiest thing in the world.
00:25:20It's these arrogant fools, sir.
00:25:22They have no idea the privilege they're throwing away.
00:25:26And Mr. Smith, they even had the audacity to threaten you.
00:25:29Said you would tremble before her.
00:25:31What?
00:25:32Someone dare threaten the John Smith?
00:25:35The head of Phoenix Group's most powerful subsidiary?
00:25:39The man that no one crosses.
00:25:42Yes, it's that woman right over there.
00:25:44Hello, John.
00:25:52Why does her voice sound so familiar?
00:25:57Just now, Phoenix Group's CEO, Mary Miller, one of the most powerful figures in our city, has relinquished full control of the company to her son.
00:26:07Mary, do you have anything to say?
00:26:09Anything to say at all, Mary, about the transition of power?
00:26:12Ms. Miller.
00:26:14Ms. Miller.
00:26:17Ms. Miller.
00:26:17I owe everything to you.
00:26:19You started Sterling Corps and gave me my position.
00:26:22If you're really planning on leaving Phoenix Group, please, at least, let me drive you home.
00:26:30If you really want to show your gratitude, take good care of Sterling Group.
00:26:34I'm counting on you.
00:26:40How dare you use Mr. Smith's first name?
00:26:43Keep our boss's name out of your mouth or else I'll-
00:26:45Wait!
00:26:45You, you know who I am.
00:26:57Mr. Smith, listen to this filth trying to pretend she knows you.
00:27:01Yes, I do know you, John.
00:27:05How dare you address Mr. Smith like that?
00:27:08Trash like you should show respect!
00:27:11Mr. Smith, this is just some old woman who works as a cheap laborer at the orphanage nearby.
00:27:16A day laborer? I must have mistaken her for someone else.
00:27:20What happened to all your threats?
00:27:22Weren't you just saying how Mr. Smith would tremble and fall to his knees?
00:27:26You said that?
00:27:27I did.
00:27:28Who do you think you are, huh?
00:27:30Don't touch my mom.
00:27:33Oh, you want to be brave too?
00:27:36Huh?
00:27:38Mr. Smith, it's a message from Mr. Miller.
00:27:41It's a photo of Mrs. Miller.
00:27:47It's a photo of Mrs. Miller.
00:27:49You mean Ms. Miller?
00:27:51Yeah, she's Phoenix Group's CEO. They say she controls all the city.
00:27:56But she disappeared years ago when she gave control to her son when he turned 18.
00:28:00We could have been living the high life if she had adopted us instead of being stuck with this worthless woman.
00:28:07Mr. Smith, you see, everything's ready for the wedding.
00:28:10If you could just help us convince the bride.
00:28:12Ms. Miller is here in town somewhere.
00:28:14I have to find and greet her.
00:28:16I can't let this petty situation get in the way.
00:28:18Take her to the church.
00:28:20No, let me go. I won't marry him. I need to stay with my mom.
00:28:24Try to get past me. See how that works.
00:28:27Try to get past me. See how that works out for you.
00:28:35Move aside, ma'am. Mr. Smith is due to welcome back the CEO of Phoenix Group.
00:28:40If you and your daughter get in the way, you'll pay the price.
00:28:46So, this is how you run Sterling Group now? Torment the weak? Throw your weight around?
00:28:54Shut your damn mouth.
00:28:55Shhh.
00:28:56Stripper, let her mother watch what happens to people who defy me.
00:29:01You are making your last mistake.
00:29:05You think I'm scared of some empty threats from an old hag in a wheelchair?
00:29:10What are you gonna do about it?
00:29:12No, no, no, no.
00:29:14No, no, no, no, no.
00:29:25Huh.
00:29:25How could I be so foolish?
00:29:44Miss Miller, the CEO of Phoenix Group, is right in front of my eyes.
00:29:49Mr. Smith is about to teach this old woman a lesson that she should never open her mouth.
00:29:55Just watch.
00:29:56Well, that'll teach you to disrespect someone like Mr. Smith.
00:29:59Crawl on the ground and beg for forgiveness, you pathetic old hag.
00:30:02That's right. Go on and grovel before he destroys you.
00:30:07I have no need to apologize. I meant every word that I said.
00:30:12I said that when John Smith gets here, he will tremble and fall to his knees and that is exactly what will happen.
00:30:21What planet are you even living on?
00:30:24You're not just a beggar. You're a complete lunatic.
00:30:36What's the matter?
00:30:46Sir, what's the matter?
00:31:02On your knees.
00:31:03What, sir?
00:31:04She's just somebody.
00:31:04I said on your knees!
00:31:12Are you all deaf?
00:31:14Get on your knees!
00:31:16Mr. Smith, what's this all about?
00:31:18Are you not feeling well?
00:31:20What did this brain-dead bitch do to him?
00:31:23Get him away before whatever's riding in her head spreads!
00:31:27Mr. Smith, what are you doing?
00:31:31I'm warning you.
00:31:33Do not disrespect this woman.
00:31:36She is.
00:31:37She is.
00:31:38She is nothing but a pathetic waste of space.
00:31:41She can't even stand on her own two feet.
00:31:44Her brain is running away and she doesn't have a penny to her name.
00:31:48Are you seriously going to defend this old witch?
00:31:55Looks like you remember me now, John.
00:31:58Why don't you tell everyone else who I am?
00:32:00Go ahead.
00:32:00Let dress him as Mr. Smith, you disrespectful old hag.
00:32:09Mr. Smith, we never wanted her as her mother.
00:32:13We've already cut ties with this woman.
00:32:15We don't support her behavior at all.
00:32:17Please, don't punish us for her actions.
00:32:20I understand you're upset, Mr. Smith.
00:32:23Let me remove this worthless woman.
00:32:30Leave!
00:32:31All of you!
00:32:34Mr. Smith, why are you protecting her?
00:32:36She's beneath you.
00:32:37Mr. Smith, please.
00:32:39We're family.
00:32:40Family?
00:32:41You're just distant relatives.
00:32:43The only reason I maintain contact with you is because someone told me to never forget where I came from.
00:32:50And that someone was her.
00:32:53She helped me build Sterling Core for nothing.
00:33:02John, return my daughter to me.
00:33:05And we'll discuss your actions later.
00:33:08Yes, Miss Miller.
00:33:08No one will ever hurt you again, okay?
00:33:27Who the hell are you?
00:33:36On behalf of Sterling Core.
00:33:38I formally welcome you back to Phoenix Group.
00:33:41Welcome back, boss.
00:33:44She's the CEO of Phoenix Group?
00:33:52Phoenix Group CEO.
00:33:54Huh, that's impossible.
00:33:56There must be some mistake.
00:33:57This old hack doesn't even have money.
00:33:59Just look at her.
00:34:01Yeah, the richest CEO in the country wearing bargain bin clothes, working at an orphanage, and living in this dump?
00:34:07Please.
00:34:08Do you even hear yourself?
00:34:10If it wasn't for Miss Miller living a modest life, you'd still be orphans, you ungrateful brats.
00:34:18And you, you must be the adoptive daughter who saved Miss Miller.
00:34:22Don't be afraid.
00:34:24You're Miss Miller's daughter, and the only one who protected her.
00:34:27And now, Sterling Core will protect you.
00:34:30If anyone tries to harm you, they'll pay the price.
00:34:33I just want to stay with my mom and take care of her.
00:34:37Please.
00:34:39Don't let them force me to marry this man.
00:34:41My sweet girl.
00:34:47No way!
00:34:48My parents paid good money for you, so you belong to me now.
00:34:51What?
00:34:52Your mother can run into nursing home for all I care.
00:34:54Nobody touches my daughter.
00:34:56John, break his wrist!
00:34:59John, break his wrist!
00:35:00Mr. Smith, please don't do this.
00:35:08Please, he's our only son.
00:35:10Please, he's all we've got.
00:35:12You love your son like I love my daughter.
00:35:15And yet, you let him terrorize Grace, and you didn't say anything.
00:35:20And now, you want to apologize?
00:35:23It's too late.
00:35:24But your daughter is fine.
00:35:26Do you really have to do this?
00:35:28If I let this go today, then you'll keep terrorizing those weaker than you, like my daughter.
00:35:34So today, there will be a lesson for not only your son, but for everyone else.
00:35:39Mark my words.
00:35:42Who do you think you are, barking at my parents and brother?
00:35:45Move or I'll end you all!
00:35:50Brittany, my sweet daughter.
00:35:52Thank God you're here.
00:35:53Don't worry, Dad.
00:35:55I've got this under control.
00:35:57Did you forget?
00:36:00My boyfriend is Alexander Miller's assistant.
00:36:03So what, young lady?
00:36:05And this is Alexander's mother, Miss Miller, CEO of Phoenix Group.
00:36:10She is not the CEO of Phoenix Group.
00:36:13She's a fraud!
00:36:17What are you talking about?
00:36:19Just because you're dating Alexander's lapdog doesn't mean you can run your mouth and spread lies.
00:36:23Lies?
00:36:24I've seen the Phoenix Group CEO with my own two eyes.
00:36:28She got me a present for my birthday.
00:36:30Sean, what's wrong?
00:36:40Today's my girlfriend's birthday, and she wants me to invite Miss Mary Miller to her party.
00:36:46What?
00:36:47She's so secluded, even her own son can't see her whenever he wants.
00:36:52How do you expect her to agree to meet your girlfriend?
00:36:56Wait.
00:36:58What if you pretend to be her?
00:37:00Nobody even knows what she looks like outside of the board anyway.
00:37:04Pretend to be CEO for my girlfriend's birthday party, and I'll get working on that promotion that you've been wanting for years.
00:37:14Oh, yeah?
00:37:16Hmm.
00:37:17Fine.
00:37:18I'll do it.
00:37:19Young lady, I don't know who your family is, but you better believe that I could destroy them with one phone call.
00:37:29Everyone here sees that you're just broke and delusional.
00:37:33Cut the act, you widowed hag!
00:37:35Don't say I didn't warn you.
00:37:40I'm going to have my boyfriend expose you for the fraud you really are.
00:37:54Brittany.
00:37:56I'm on my way.
00:37:57My mother's coming back to the Phoenix Group today, so I want you guys to get her something absolutely spectacular, okay?
00:38:03It's time to show this city who's really been behind our success.
00:38:07Also, I want you to get something for that girl.
00:38:09The one that she adopted, that's been taken care of her.
00:38:12She's my sister now, so get her something grand as well.
00:38:17Boss, is everything okay?
00:38:19I need you to do something for me.
00:38:21It's about Brittany.
00:38:22Someone causing your girlfriend trouble?
00:38:25Don't worry.
00:38:26I'll handle it.
00:38:27I'll make them beg for mercy for what they've done.
00:38:29Take her right here.
00:38:31Gotta handle something for Sean.
00:38:33Yes, sir.
00:38:37Hear that?
00:38:39My daughter's boyfriend is Alexander Miller's assistant.
00:38:42He's one of Phoenix Group's rising stars.
00:38:45You picked the wrong people to mess with.
00:38:47You're done for.
00:38:48Thank God we cut ties with you, you crazy old witch.
00:38:51You almost gave me a heart attack, you old hag.
00:38:54Turns out you were a fraud all along.
00:38:57You.
00:38:57Who would have thought our daughter would end up dating Alexander's right-hand man?
00:39:04When her boyfriend gets here, we're gonna strip you and your daughter naked and throw you into the streets.
00:39:10Let everyone see how we treat liars like you.
00:39:13I'm afraid you're in for quite a disappointment.
00:39:17Still acting tough?
00:39:19You really are shameless.
00:39:21John, handle this right now.
00:39:24She's scaring my daughter.
00:39:26Yes, Miss Miller.
00:39:35Oh, I'm sorry.
00:39:37Oh, I'm sorry.
00:39:38Oh, back off, John.
00:39:41You're just some low-level manager.
00:39:43My boyfriend will destroy your career if you touch me.
00:39:48Did you just hit me?
00:39:52Not bad for an old hag.
00:39:54I get it now, John.
00:39:56You're siding with this hag because she crawled into your bed.
00:39:59You disgusting little...
00:40:01Oh, did I hurt a nerve?
00:40:03Just wait until my boyfriend gets here.
00:40:06I'm going to tell him that you hit me for this old slut.
00:40:09You're dead.
00:40:11You really think your boyfriend is that important?
00:40:15To me.
00:40:17He's nothing.
00:40:19But he doesn't even deserve to clean the dirt off my shoes.
00:40:23Nobody insults Mr. Sean Parker and lives to talk about it.
00:40:28Mike?
00:40:29Why are you alone versus Sean?
00:40:31Relax, Miss.
00:40:32Sean and Miss Miller have more important matters than dealing with trash.
00:40:36So, who's been causing trouble for my boss's girlfriend?
00:40:40It was this piece of garbage right here.
00:40:43She said that Mr. Sean Parker didn't deserve to clean the dirt off her shoes.
00:40:47And she's pretending to be the CEO of Phoenix Group, Miss Miller.
00:40:53Miss Miller?
00:40:55Miss Miller, old hag.
00:41:01You've got some nerve pretending to be Miss Miller.
00:41:04Open your eyes.
00:41:05She is Miss Miller.
00:41:07Right.
00:41:08And I'm the Queen of England.
00:41:10Tell you what.
00:41:12If she's really the CEO, I'll tattoo fool on my forehead.
00:41:18Nice performance, John.
00:41:20Good thing I met the real CEO at Brittany's birthday party, or I might have fallen for your little act.
00:41:24Miss Miller, I don't know who you think you met, but that was not the CEO.
00:41:29If my mom really lied, it was to protect me from being forced to marry the mayor's son.
00:41:34But if she isn't the CEO of Phoenix Group, then I apologize.
00:41:40Just please, don't hurt my mother.
00:41:43Well, what do we have here?
00:41:46Quite the pretty little thing.
00:41:48Since you're such a good daughter, I'll let this lie.
00:41:51Under one condition.
00:41:57Marry the mayor's son.
00:42:01And I'll forgive your mother's lies.
00:42:03Grace, don't listen to this fool.
00:42:07Mom.
00:42:08I never thought that I would have a real family.
00:42:13And then you adopted me.
00:42:16You gave me everything.
00:42:19Love, protection, a life.
00:42:23I owe you everything.
00:42:26So if...
00:42:28So if marrying the mayor's son will protect you...
00:42:32Then I'll do it.
00:42:35Back off while you still can.
00:42:42If you hurt Grace or cross Miss Miller, you'll pay the price.
00:42:45Look at you, John.
00:42:46Completely entangled in this fraud spell.
00:42:49You know what's gonna happen today, John?
00:42:51Huh?
00:42:52The real Miss Miller is returning to Phoenix Group.
00:42:55When Alexander finds out you're helping some imposter,
00:43:00you're finished.
00:43:02Miss Miller's returning to Phoenix Group today?
00:43:04With your boyfriend being Mr. Miller's assistant,
00:43:08surely you'll meet Miss Miller.
00:43:11Oh, please, let me come with you.
00:43:14I'd do anything to see Miss Miller.
00:43:17Miss Miller is a very private person.
00:43:20Most employees haven't even seen her.
00:43:21Well, I guess I could let you see her from a distance.
00:43:28Now then, time to deal with our...
00:43:31little problem.
00:43:33Can't have these frauds causing trouble on such an important day.
00:43:39You fool!
00:43:40This woman is the real CEO of Phoenix Group.
00:43:43Mr. Miller sent me her photo.
00:43:45It's right here.
00:43:46It's right here.
00:43:54A photo?
00:43:55That can't prove anything.
00:43:56Anyone could fake that using AI.
00:43:58With AI these days, you can make any photo you want.
00:44:02You can't fool us.
00:44:03Look at her.
00:44:04She's just a pathetic nothing.
00:44:06Faking photos to play CEO?
00:44:09God, I've never seen anyone so desperate.
00:44:12What happened to all that talk about honesty
00:44:14and respect as we grew up, Mom?
00:44:17Or does that not apply to an old hag like you?
00:44:20You are good looking.
00:44:22For your age.
00:44:24No wonder you've got John wrapped around your finger,
00:44:27you witch.
00:44:28Shut your damn mouth.
00:44:30Stay away from her, you monster.
00:44:31Good thing we've got some time on our hands anyway.
00:44:38And, bloke, single moms are my favorite kind of...
00:44:42A feisty one, huh?
00:44:47Just the way I like it.
00:44:49You sure this is the right location?
00:45:04The coordinates led us here, sir.
00:45:06The mayor will know where she is.
00:45:08This is perfect.
00:45:09The mayor's about to see his future son-in-law
00:45:11working right beside the great Alexander Miller.
00:45:14This couldn't be better.
00:45:16Well, then what are we waiting for?
00:45:17Let's go find the mayor.
00:45:19Yes, sir.
00:45:25Um, this is private property.
00:45:27You can't show-
00:45:28That is Alexander Miller of the Phoenix Group
00:45:30that you're speaking to.
00:45:32Where is the mayor?
00:45:34I need him to find my mother.
00:45:36Alexander Miller?
00:45:38It is an honor to meet you.
00:45:40We did not expect you to show up at this wedding celebration.
00:45:43Wait a second.
00:45:44The wedding?
00:45:46Yes, the mayor's son's getting married.
00:45:47We didn't realize someone of your VIP status would be here.
00:45:52I didn't realize the mayor had such great connection.
00:45:55Right?
00:45:55Oh, that old woman will now regret not marrying her daughter into the mayor's family.
00:46:01Can you believe that?
00:46:02That dead broke vegetable?
00:46:04She acts all high and mighty.
00:46:06But you know what?
00:46:07That girl's not even really her daughter.
00:46:09She's adopted.
00:46:11That woman.
00:46:13Is she a single mother to three orphans?
00:46:15That's her, all right.
00:46:17But don't worry, sir, okay?
00:46:19The mayor has this town under control.
00:46:22And you know what?
00:46:22He's gonna teach that old ha-
00:46:24Oh!
00:46:25Oh!
00:46:26What did you just call her?
00:46:28That woman you just insulted is my mother.
00:46:32The CEO of the Phoenix Group.
00:46:35CEO of the Phoenix Group?
00:46:36That can't be.
00:46:39Pick that piece of shit up and have him take us to my mother.
00:46:42Yes, sir.
00:46:48You will regret every word that you said about the Miller family.
00:46:51Once Miss Miller comes back, her daughter Grace will be a part of the Phoenix family.
00:46:56If you think the mayor's son can marry some of her stature, you're delusional.
00:47:02I want to meet this mayor myself.
00:47:05The audacity to treat Miss Miller and her daughter like this?
00:47:11Oh, I need to warn the mayor.
00:47:15Just the way I like it.
00:47:19How dare you talk to Miss Miller like that?
00:47:22Ah!
00:47:22Joe, is she once a real man now, John?
00:47:28By the time I'm done with her, she won't be moving that wheelchair anymore.
00:47:32Your problem is with me.
00:47:34Sterling Corp protects her on and we will die defending our boss.
00:47:41Must be giving John something real special.
00:47:43Why else would he risk everything with Phoenix Group to back up your pathetic lives?
00:47:47You won't live to see another day.
00:47:50Then I better make the most of now.
00:47:52Please, stop!
00:47:58Everyone, stop!
00:48:01What is it?
00:48:02Can't you see we're busy?
00:48:04That woman, you're threatening.
00:48:05She...
00:48:05She...
00:48:06That woman, you're threatening.
00:48:09She...
00:48:10She...
00:48:10She...
00:48:10She's nothing but an old widow.
00:48:14This is our town.
00:48:15We know what we're doing.
00:48:16Right.
00:48:17Especially with Alexander's people on our side.
00:48:19The sky could fall right now and I'm still gonna have my fun with you.
00:48:24Yeah?
00:48:24Well, when it falls, you'll be the first one to crumble.
00:48:29This is Phoenix Group's turf.
00:48:32I'm Sean Parker's right-hand man.
00:48:33Your precious boss should be on your knees before me.
00:48:36Just because you're some assistant's lap dog, it doesn't mean you're untouchable.
00:48:42Why don't you just make the call?
00:48:44Then we'll see how untouchable you really are.
00:48:47What's wrong?
00:48:49Are you getting nervous?
00:48:50Who could she possibly call?
00:48:52It's not like she has Alexander on speed dial.
00:48:56Let her make the call.
00:48:59I want to see who this pathetic widow runs to for help.
00:49:03Go ahead.
00:49:04Show us these powerful connections of yours.
00:49:08Stop!
00:49:08Don't let her make the call!
00:49:11Stop!
00:49:12Don't let her make the call!
00:49:14Shut your worthless mouth!
00:49:16You have no right to speak here!
00:49:19Afraid of a little phone call?
00:49:20No, that's Mike from Phoenix Group.
00:49:23No one in this city dares cross him.
00:49:27But, but, but she...
00:49:28But, but, but...
00:49:30Can't even form a sentence?
00:49:32What, do you think this nobody's gonna call the Alexander Miller?
00:49:35Not another word.
00:49:37You're wasting our time.
00:49:38I need to get ready to meet the real Miss Miller later when she returns to the company.
00:49:43Brittany's right.
00:49:44We're about to welcome back the great Miss Miller.
00:49:47Nothing's changing that.
00:49:48Don't say I didn't give you a chance.
00:49:52Make your call, you fraud.
00:50:02Who's this?
00:50:04Mother?
00:50:05I can't believe they'd do this.
00:50:13Look, Mom, I got this.
00:50:14Don't worry, don't worry.
00:50:15I'm gonna handle this, okay?
00:50:16I know exactly what to do.
00:50:20So, you're this old hag's emergency contact.
00:50:24Guess what?
00:50:24You're screwed.
00:50:25Because my boyfriend is Sean Parker.
00:50:29Mr. Miller's right-hand man.
00:50:31Sean is your boyfriend, huh?
00:50:32Are you deaf or dumb?
00:50:34And how dare you refer to Sean by his first name?
00:50:37He is Alexander Miller's right-hand man.
00:50:41So, watch yourself.
00:50:42Brittany, you're speaking to Alexander Miller himself.
00:50:45Well, you're gonna find out soon enough.
00:50:47My boyfriend is Alexander Miller's man.
00:50:50He is going to destroy you.
00:50:52What?
00:50:53You want to talk to Mike Hanson?
00:50:59How does your contact know my name?
00:51:02Talk to him.
00:51:03Find out.
00:51:04What happened, Mike?
00:51:05You scared to answer the phone?
00:51:07Shut up!
00:51:08Sean has my back.
00:51:09Why would I be scared of some loser this hag called?
00:51:13Who are you?
00:51:14How the hell do you know my name?
00:51:15The signals are always bad here.
00:51:24We need to get to my mother in five minutes.
00:51:25Let's go.
00:51:26Move.
00:51:26Come on.
00:51:27Yes, sir.
00:51:28Yes, sir.
00:51:31You really had me fooled for a second there.
00:51:33I thought your friend was someone important.
00:51:36Turns out, he's just a coward.
00:51:37Couldn't even speak when he heard my voice.
00:51:39Couldn't say a word.
00:51:42Pathetic.
00:51:42Mike scared him speechless.
00:51:44Not so tough now, are you?
00:51:47You were, uh, clever.
00:51:50I'll give you that.
00:51:53I don't know how you managed to tell that friend of yours my name, but, uh, who cares?
00:51:59He's a spineless coward who can't even talk to me, let alone touch me.
00:52:04Stay away from her.
00:52:05Stay away from her.
00:52:35You're a filthy slut.
00:52:38You make me sick!
00:52:50It came from over there.
00:52:52Let's go!
00:52:56The mayor's family is finished.
00:52:59Shane, should have been a kill shot.
00:53:13You've just burnt your last bridge.
00:53:16You will regret this.
00:53:18I'm just punishing a couple troublemakers.
00:53:21Is that a crime?
00:53:21Now, it's just you and me.
00:53:26Don't worry.
00:53:27I can treat you better than John ever could.
00:53:29Did you have another nightmare?
00:53:46Yeah.
00:53:47I'm sorry, sweetheart.
00:53:50You know I will always be here to protect you, right?
00:53:52I'm so sorry.
00:53:56You have to cover that.
00:53:59Mom.
00:54:01This time, I'll protect you.
00:54:10Mom.
00:54:11Ah!
00:54:12It's your fault that we're in this mess.
00:54:14Just marry my brother like a good little girl, and we'll let your mother go!
00:54:19Yeah, we offered you a better life, and this is how you repay us.
00:54:24Some people just need their gratitude beaten into them.
00:54:28Please, I'm begging you.
00:54:29Don't hurt my mom.
00:54:31Let her go, and I'll marry Gregory, I swear.
00:54:34No, that's better.
00:54:38Ew.
00:54:39Ugh!
00:54:48You've had your fun.
00:54:49Wrap it up.
00:54:51Such a shame, hmm?
00:54:53I was just getting started.
00:54:55When I'm done with you, you're gonna regret you were ever born.
00:54:59Still making threats?
00:55:00An old hag like you should be grateful I even want to touch you.
00:55:04If Brittany hadn't interrupted,
00:55:08we'd be having some real fun right now.
00:55:12Having fun with who?
00:55:14Ugh.
00:55:30Who is he?
00:55:32That's some entrance.
00:55:34Look at those clothes.
00:55:35Must be connected to the mayor.
00:55:38Oh, my sweet.
00:55:39Don't.
00:55:50Mom.
00:55:51Is...
00:55:52Is that really Miss Miller?
00:55:55You brought quite the entourage, baby.
00:55:57All this back up, just your little old me?
00:56:00Brittany, you don't understand.
00:56:02This is, um...
00:56:03Alexander Miller.
00:56:05I didn't think you'd come here yourself.
00:56:07Alexander who?
00:56:09Alexander Miller?
00:56:11That's Alexander Miller?
00:56:13Miss Miller's son?
00:56:18Shit.
00:56:19That's Alexander Miller?
00:56:21He's even dreamier in person.
00:56:23Sir, that woman is delusional.
00:56:27She claims she's your mother, the CEO of Phoenix Group.
00:56:31Sir, it's my son's wedding today.
00:56:34We would be honored if you could attend the reception.
00:56:36Uh, after you meet with the real Miss Miller.
00:56:40It's an honor to meet you, sir.
00:56:42I'm Sean's girlfriend, the mayor's daughter.
00:56:45You can call me Brittany.
00:56:46If you need anything in this town, my family is at your service.
00:56:50Yes.
00:56:52Brittany, shut up.
00:56:54What?
00:56:55It's not every day you meet the Alexander Miller.
00:56:59Also, think about it.
00:57:00If Miss Miller comes to my brother's wedding party, too,
00:57:03we'll be the talk of the town.
00:57:06If you want to invite my mother to your party,
00:57:08why don't you ask her yourself?
00:57:10Oh, what a brilliant idea.
00:57:12If you would be so kind as to lead us to it.
00:57:14There's no need for that.
00:57:15My mother is here right now.
00:57:24Where is she?
00:57:29Sir, are you playing some kind of trick on us?
00:57:33I don't see Miss Miller anywhere.
00:57:34I would certainly recognize her if she was in my town.
00:57:37Well, of course you would.
00:57:39Nothing happens here without the mayor knowing about it.
00:57:41Are you suggesting I wouldn't recognize my own mother?
00:57:45If what you're saying is true, when did she come to our town?
00:57:52Fifteen years ago.
00:57:54My mother came here to live in seclusion
00:57:56after she stepped down as the Phoenix CEO.
00:58:00Fifteen years ago?
00:58:02That's not possible.
00:58:10I'm so sorry it took so long, mother.
00:58:12Come here, my son.
00:58:18You've gotten so old.
00:58:21I missed you.
00:58:24You're a beautiful man now.
00:58:34Phoenix Group CEO?
00:58:37Impossible.
00:58:37She's really Miss Miller?
00:58:44Phoenix Group CEO?
00:58:47There has to be some mistake.
00:58:49She's nothing but a filthy woman who works for the orphanage.
00:58:53That fucker could not possibly be the real Miss Miller.
00:58:55Miss Miller, please excuse my girlfriend's disgraceful behavior.
00:59:06I take full responsibility.
00:59:08Punish me as you see fit.
00:59:09Our adoptive mother is the famous Miss Miller?
00:59:16What have we done?
00:59:17One moment, mother.
00:59:22Are you Grace?
00:59:26Take care, mother.
00:59:29Let me handle this.
00:59:33Now it's time for you all to explain yourselves.
00:59:35This is all a misunderstanding.
00:59:49Apologize to my mother.
00:59:50Now.
00:59:54Miss Miller, I beg of you.
00:59:56I'm sorry.
00:59:58I'm so, so sorry.
00:59:59You're only apologizing now because you know who I am.
01:00:03As I said, you would regret being born.
01:00:07Guards, get him out of my sight.
01:00:09Make sure I never see his face in the city again.
01:00:15Sean, if that's the real Miss Miller,
01:00:18then who did you invite to my birthday dinner?
01:00:21Tell her.
01:00:21Tell her she's never really met me.
01:00:24Tell her that I'm the real CEO of Phoenix Group.
01:00:26You thought you actually deserved to see the real Miss Miller?
01:00:37It was just some employee that I paid to pretend.
01:00:40I didn't think you'd be stupid enough to not notice.
01:00:43And now, look at the trouble you've caused.
01:00:48Miss Miller, this worthless girl has caused nothing but trouble.
01:00:52I'll kill her myself if you'll forgive me.
01:00:54Someone like you doesn't even deserve to work at the Phoenix Group.
01:00:59Remove him.
01:01:04Miss Miller.
01:01:07We were wrong.
01:01:09We'll never do anything like this again.
01:01:12Please have mercy.
01:01:15Forgive us just this once.
01:01:16You all tortured people for years.
01:01:21If I was to forgive you,
01:01:23you would go on and continue to hurt innocent people.
01:01:26Take them away.
01:01:27Deal with them accordingly.
01:01:30Make them away.
01:01:31Make them away.
01:01:32No, I...
01:01:33No!
01:01:35Where do you think you're going?
01:01:41Listen, I am not done with you two.
01:01:46What are you planning on doing with these two?
01:01:49You two wanted this house so badly.
01:01:52Burn it down.
01:01:53You don't deserve it.
01:01:55You heard my mother.
01:01:56Burn it down.
01:01:57Now!
01:01:57Yes, sir.
01:01:58No, no, no, no.
01:02:05Mother.
01:02:10Mother! Mother, please!
01:02:29For your children, Anna!
01:02:40All these years in seclusion, I gave you everything, and yet all you wanted was for me to die?
01:02:48You've really shown your true colors.
01:02:51And you know what? Now you never have to call me Mother again.
01:03:01And you, you're not off the hook. I'll deal with you later.
01:03:08Yes, Miss Mother.
01:03:10My dear, somebody very special I want to introduce you to.
01:03:18Grace, this is my son, Alexander.
01:03:22It's an honor to meet you, sir.
01:03:24Please, you're my sister now. There's no need for formalities.
01:03:28Mother, I've arranged a welcome banquet for you at the Cloud Peak Restaurant.
01:03:33What better occasion to introduce my daughter to the whole world?
01:03:38The future heiress of the Phoenix Group.
01:03:47It's a historical day for the Phoenix Group.
01:03:49The city must know.
01:03:51Our CEO is back.
01:03:53I'll send out the invitations.
01:04:01Is that your boyfriend? The one that was studying abroad?
01:04:05Yes. He promised me when he came back home that he would propose to me.
01:04:12I'm expecting him to pop the question anytime now.
01:04:14That's wonderful. Take the call, but why don't you also invite him to the banquet tonight, okay?
01:04:21Okay.
01:04:24Hi.
01:04:27Cloud Peak Restaurant. Yeah, I can meet you there.
01:04:29There's, um, actually something important I need to tell you.
01:04:35There's, um, actually something important I need to tell you.
01:04:35There's, um, actually something important.
01:04:40There's a lot of the time that we need to tell you.
01:04:43There's a machine that will be so busy here.
01:04:44There's nothing at all.
01:04:45There's nothing at all.
01:04:46There's nothing at all.
01:04:51There's nothing at all.
01:04:52Who's that beautiful young woman?
01:05:10She must be someone important to be at Phoenix Grubbs Banquet tonight.
01:05:18Nathan!
01:05:22Victoria?
01:05:27Long time no see, bestie.
01:05:34What's going on here?
01:05:36What does it look like?
01:05:39Best friend and I are together now.
01:05:44But you promised me you'd give me a ring when you came back.
01:05:49Oh, he did get a ring.
01:05:50Just not for you, loser.
01:05:56Shocked to see our son engage with someone worthy of him.
01:05:59A proper match.
01:06:01At last.
01:06:03Unlike you and your useless poor mother who can't possibly help him in his career.
01:06:08That's right.
01:06:10My mother's a secretary at Phoenix Grubbs Banquet.
01:06:12And she got Nathan the regional manager position at the company.
01:06:16Things change when you have the right connections.
01:06:19Isn't that right, sweetie?
01:06:23So that's why you chose my best friend over me?
01:06:26How could you both do this to me?
01:06:28Shut your mouth.
01:06:33Oh, honey.
01:06:34Save yourself the humiliation and leave.
01:06:37You don't belong here.
01:06:39You don't belong here.
01:06:39Everything's set.
01:06:50City's most powerful leader here to meet Grace.
01:06:52Grace deserves this moment.
01:07:09After tonight, everyone will know that she's the heiress of the Phoenix Grubbs.
01:07:13Wait, what?
01:07:21Someone's causing trouble to my sister.
01:07:25Did you honestly think you could compete with me?
01:07:29You're just the daughter of some poor crazy woman who can't even walk.
01:07:35And that dress.
01:07:37What'd you do?
01:07:38Steal it?
01:07:39Trash like you could never afford a dress like that.
01:07:41You probably borrowed it to pretend she's not poor.
01:07:46Just like her mother, pretending to be someone she's not.
01:07:49Let me return it to whatever store you stole it from.
01:07:59Mom.
01:08:09Don't worry, sweetheart.
01:08:11Your mother will always protect you now, okay?
01:08:22How dare you throw wine on my future daughter-in-law?
01:08:25How disgusting.
01:08:27This is why poor people like her have no business at events like this.
01:08:31And who might you be?
01:08:33I'm Nathan's father, Bill Carter.
01:08:35And I am his mother, Helen.
01:08:38So your son is the young man that my daughter was interested in?
01:08:44Just as I suspect.
01:08:47He's not worthy of my daughter.
01:08:49Who are you to talk down to my son like that?
01:08:52Our son is the perfect match any girl could hope for.
01:08:57Oh.
01:08:57Oh, really.
01:09:08The three heirs of the largest corporation?
01:09:11Only Phoenix Group is above them.
01:09:13What are they doing here?
01:09:14I'm James Bryant from the Sterling International Group.
01:09:21It's an honor to meet you, Grace.
01:09:23Grace, would you be honored to meet me at the dinner bar sometimes?
01:09:27I would love to take a travel with me when you can.
01:09:30My schedule is completely open.
01:09:32I-I...
01:09:33Sweetheart, don't be afraid.
01:09:35You really do deserve someone better.
01:09:40Grace, these are some of the finest young men in the city.
01:09:43And if none of them are to your desire,
01:09:46they're CEOs, they're entrepreneurs, and they're architects.
01:09:49You're going to meet you.
01:09:51What's going on?
01:09:53Why are all these rich men surrounding trash like you?
01:09:56You pathetic whore!
01:09:58Since when do you know people with real money?
01:10:00You manipulative little slut!
01:10:03What other secrets are you hiding?
01:10:05You think you're good enough to touch my sister?
01:10:13Did you just say...
01:10:15Sister?
01:10:17I thought you said she was an orphan!
01:10:20How can she be Alexander's sister?
01:10:24Alexander, surely there's been some sort of mistake.
01:10:28And who exactly do you think you are to question me?
01:10:33Alexander, you must be confused.
01:10:35Grace is nothing but a worthless orphan.
01:10:38It's true! She's nothing but trash!
01:10:42She's garbage! Nothing but garbage!
01:10:47Who?
01:10:50Who are you?
01:10:57Since you're so desperate to find out who my daughter is,
01:11:04you, you'll find out soon enough.
01:11:08And you!
01:11:09You will see exactly what you threw away.
01:11:14Ladies and gentlemen,
01:11:15please welcome the CEO of Phoenix Group,
01:11:18Ms. Miller!
01:11:20She, she, she, she can't be!
01:11:46The, really, the CEO of the Phoenix Group.
01:11:53Thank you all for coming this evening.
01:11:58During my absence, I worked the hardest, most low-paying job.
01:12:04I wanted to understand the struggle of the less fortunate,
01:12:08and what I ended up finding was something unexpected.
01:12:11I found a daughter with a heart of gold.
01:12:16Tonight, I am proud to introduce the future heiress of the Phoenix Group.
01:12:22Oh, you worthless bitch!
01:12:24This is all your fault!
01:12:25You made me betray Grace!
01:12:29Don't blame me because you threw away someone important!
01:12:34Grace, please.
01:12:36I never cared about her.
01:12:37I always loved you.
01:12:39Just give me another chance.
01:12:40I'll prove myself worthy.
01:12:44Alexander.
01:12:45Your sister is both kind and wise.
01:12:53You need to trust that she'll do the right thing.
01:12:59Grace, Victoria deceived us all.
01:13:02Our son truly cares for you.
01:13:04Give him one more chance.
01:13:05Yes, Grace.
01:13:07You and Nathan have history.
01:13:09If you become our daughter-in-law,
01:13:11we'll treat you like our own.
01:13:12When you thought my mom and I were nothing,
01:13:15you treated us like dirt.
01:13:18And then you stood by
01:13:19and watched while Nathan betrayed me
01:13:22and humiliated my mother.
01:13:24Grace, I was wrong.
01:13:25I mean, even my parents see it now.
01:13:28It will never, ever happen again.
01:13:30I swear.
01:13:31You're only sorry because of who I am now.
01:13:34Yes, I once had feelings for you.
01:13:38But that's over.
01:13:40I never want to see you again.
01:13:42You think you're above me now?
01:13:51Pay me 100 million dollars or else
01:13:55everyone finds out how you really became the Phoenix Gruberis.
01:13:59By sleeping with your own adoptive brother.
01:14:02How dare you?
01:14:08That's a lie!
01:14:10Truth doesn't matter.
01:14:11My mother is a PR manager at Phoenix Group.
01:14:14She can forge all the proof we need.
01:14:16The press will eat it up.
01:14:18And I'll back every word of it.
01:14:21After all,
01:14:22I am regional manager of Phoenix Group.
01:14:25Just pay us the money.
01:14:26The Phoenix Group has the money.
01:14:28Or watch your reputation crumble.
01:14:32Is your mother's name Sarah Bell?
01:14:34She's the PR manager for Phoenix Group, right?
01:14:38So what old hag?
01:14:39She clearly didn't know how to teach you manners.
01:14:45So I guess she's fired.
01:14:49What?
01:14:50You can't do that!
01:14:51You and your two families
01:14:53can take your stuff
01:14:55and get out of the city.
01:14:57You're going to have a very hard time
01:14:58finding any work here.
01:14:59Please have mercy on my son.
01:15:05He's a foolish boy.
01:15:07He doesn't know what he's doing.
01:15:10Take them away.
01:15:11I do not want to see them in the city again.
01:15:16Yes, Ms. Miller.
01:15:19Wait.
01:15:20No, no, don't touch me!
01:15:22Grease!
01:15:22No, wait!
01:15:23Grease!
01:15:23I don't know why!
01:15:24Grease!
01:15:26Wait.
01:15:27Sweetheart.
01:15:30Don't let his cruelty spoil this evening.
01:15:34This moment, it is yours.
01:15:36They can't hurt me anymore, Mom.
01:15:38Not with you by my side.
01:15:41My sweet daughter.
01:15:43You, you stuck by me when I was sick.
01:15:47And I almost died.
01:15:48And you, you never gave up on me.
01:15:51And you gave me hope and strength.
01:15:54You gave me so much more.
01:15:57You gave me love when I thought I would never know what that would feel like.
01:16:00And you rescued me and you gave me a family.
01:16:07Tonight, I want everyone to see who you really are.
01:16:12You're kind, compassionate, brilliant, unbreakable.
01:16:17And I mean no one will ever speak down to you again.
01:16:22I don't need the world's approval, Mom.
01:16:25I have everything I could ever want right here.
01:16:28My sweet daughter.
01:16:29Ladies and gentlemen, I have a very important announcement to make.
01:16:40Not only will my mother be coming back,
01:16:42as the CEO, I'm proud to announce as well,
01:16:46that my sister, Grace,
01:16:49will be joining our team at the Phoenix Group
01:16:51as the youngest, billionaire, heiress.
01:17:09Grace to the Miller family.
