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.
00:03:18Or a funeral.
00:03:19I'll save you, Mom.
00:03:20I'll save you, Mom.
00:03:21I can sell blood for money.
00:03:25This is the only way I might be able to save Mom.
00:03:26I can sell blood for money.
00:03:28This is the only way I might be able to save Mom.
00:03:30I'll save you, Mom.
00:03:31I can sell blood for money.
00:03:32I can sell blood for money.
00:03:33This is the only way I might be able to save Mom.
00:03:37I can sell blood for money.
00:03:38I can sell blood for money.
00:03:39I can sell blood for money.
00:03:40I can sell blood for money.
00:03:41This is the only way I might be able to save Mom.
00:03:44I can sell blood for money.
00:03:49You should just turn around in need to leave me alone again.
00:03:51Wait for thanks for having me going.
00:03:53In this case...
00:03:58It's great.
00:03:59Go 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.
00:05:00Sir, we can't find your mother.
00:05:03She isn't answering our calls.
00:05:04What?
00:05:05My mother is missing?
00:05:07I want to sell my blood.
00:05:11Please.
00:05:12I have an extremely rare blood type.
00:05:15Type AB negative.
00:05:17You need it, and I need money for my mother's surgery.
00:05:20Please.
00:05:25We are at 400.
00:05:43I have to stop now, or you'll pass out.
00:05:45No, no.
00:05:45Don't stop.
00:05:46I can do it.
00:05:50Just keep.
00:05:51Miss?
00:05:52Just keep going.
00:05:54Miss?
00:05:55Miss?
00:05:56Miss?
00:05:58Miss?
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
00:06:27at some very expensive long-term care.
00:06:30Oh, I got it, doctor.
00:06:32She's my mom.
00:06:34I won't give up on her.
00:06:36She's very lucky to have you.
00:06:38I'll go work on the list of her medication.
00:06:40You adopted me, mom.
00:06:48You taught me what family was.
00:06:52Love is.
00:06:54Don't worry.
00:06:55I'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.
00:07:09Where 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.
00:07:23Did 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 will cover three days of mom's medication.
00:07:53Next!
00:08:01No, sir.
00:08:02I'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.
00:08:27If I catch you slacking off one time, I won't pay you a single penny.
00:08:34Thank you so much.
00:08:38You can trust me.
00:08:38I am a hard worker.
00:08:41Next!
00:08:45Don't worry, Mom.
00:08:46I'll make enough money and you'll get better.
00:08:48All right, time for lunch.
00:09:09Get back to work as soon as you're finished.
00:09:13Grace!
00:09:15Lucy, 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.
00:09:34Just 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 at 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.
00:09:55What are you doing?
00:09:59Mom.
00:10:00Mom, are you okay?
00:10:01You'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.
00:10:14Hmm?
00:10:15Go on.
00:10:16Say it.
00:10:17Say it.
00:10:18Hey, you old hag.
00:10:19Is anyone there?
00:10:20Hello?
00:10:20Can you speak up?
00:10:21Speak up!
00:10:22Get your filthy hands off of her!
00:10:26Be 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...
00:10:34Oh, poor little Grace.
00:10:36Trying so hard, and your mommy can't even see.
00:10:41If 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.
00:10:47Try and stop us.
00:10:48No!
00:10:50Ah!
00:10:51Ah!
00:10:52Mom?
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.
00:11:15You stupid bitch.
00:11:32I'm tired of repeating myself, Mom is dying.
00:11:36Dead 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.
00:11:50What?
00:11:51The mayor's daughter-in-law?
00:11:54After you and the mayor's son tie the knot, Wilson...
00:11:58That to a nursing home far, far away.
00:12:05She takes up too much space here.
00:12:07So there's the bride for my son.
00:12:18Well, son, she's the girl you said you liked, right?
00:12:22A real virgin.
00:12:23Just like me.
00:12:25All the other girls, they always run away.
00:12:28But not you.
00:12:29You'll be my first.
00:12:32Time to make you mine.
00:12:33No, no, don't touch me!
00:12:44No, no, don't touch me!
00:12:47You can't say no to me!
00:12:49My dad owns this town.
00:12:50Nobody says no to me.
00:12:52Look at you, acting so high and mighty.
00:12:55You're still selling your blood, aren't you?
00:12:57Just for a few pennies.
00:12:59We offer you a way out of poverty.
00:13:02And this is the way you repay us.
00:13:04Do you know how rich and powerful the mayor is?
00:13:08Mom'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?
00:13:17William and I are doing this for you and Mom.
00:13:20You should be grateful.
00:13:21Half a million and she's all yours tonight.
00:13:24Steep price for an orphan.
00:13:26I don't care, Dad!
00:13:27You promised me I can have her, and I want her.
00:13:30Give them what they want.
00:13:32Not a grandson or not.
00:13:33She can work for us.
00:13:34That's the man.
00:13:35Ah!
00:13:40Pleasure doing business with you, sir.
00:13:43My sister's all yours.
00:13:47No, no, no!
00:13:48No, Mom!
00:13:49Mom, please!
00:13:50Don't take me, Mom!
00:13:52No one sells my daughter.
00:14:13No one sells my daughter.
00:14:13Get away from my daughter!
00:14:30Oh, Mom!
00:14:31Thank 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.
00:14:38We're so happy to have you back.
00:14:41It looks like you know exactly what you're doing.
00:14:44Selling the house.
00:14:49Huh?
00:14:49No, Mom!
00:14:51You have the wrong idea!
00:14:52We were selling the house to help pay for your treatment!
00:14:56Treatment?
00:14:56You 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...
00:15:08Grace, 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,
00:15:32but you were trying to sell your sister, Grace, as well!
00:15:38Mom, I'm so glad you're awake.
00:15:40I didn't know what else to do.
00:15:43Oh, my sweet daughter.
00:15:46I hurt everything.
00:15:47Everything you did to keep me safe.
00:15:51Your mother will make these ingrits pay for what they did to you.
00:15:59This.
00:16:00This is just a silly house.
00:16:03And I would have given it to you without a second thought.
00:16:07But now, after the stunt that you two pulled,
00:16:11you won't get anything.
00:16:14Well, William and I would have considered looking after you if you were even moderately wealthy.
00:16:26But you're just poor.
00:16:28Do you know how goddamn embarrassing it is to call you our mother?
00:16:35Embarrassing?
00:16:36When we were orphans, nobody wanted us.
00:16:39Mom gave us a home.
00:16:40She saved us.
00:16:41Saved us?
00:16:44I didn't choose the shitty life she offered us.
00:16:47Poor people shouldn't drag others into their suffering.
00:16:51That's not fair.
00:16:52Take it back.
00:16:53You 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.
00:17:05You're not getting anything from me.
00:17:08Not a single cent.
00:17:12Grace, do you have my phone?
00:17:16Oh, Grace.
00:17:17This is your mom's phone.
00:17:18You can keep it for now.
00:17:19Doctor, this phone is really nice.
00:17:22Are you sure it belongs to my mom?
00:17:24We took it from her pocket right before the surgery.
00:17:39Miss Miller.
00:17:43Alexander.
00:17:44It's me.
00:17:49My mother was in danger.
00:17:52Thanks to her adopted daughter, Grace.
00:17:54She's safe in a small town.
00:17:56I'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.
00:18:17I'm coming, mother.
00:18:18Wait, 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?
00:18:43The mayor is related to Mr. Smith, the 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 weddings.
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 bird-watching 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 going to be trembling in his boots.
00:19:36Mr. 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 Ms. 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.
00:20:03I never thought I'd ever meet Ms. 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.
00:20:23Wait, you think Mr. Smith will kneel before someone like you?
00:20:28Oh, don't make me laugh.
00:20:30Oh, she's completely delusional.
00:20:33Enough.
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.
00:20:50Lay a hand on my daughter one more time, and I'll make sure you don't use that hand again.
00:20:55What's wrong?
00:20:57Our money not good enough for you?
00:21:00Fine.
00:21:01Name your price.
00:21:03Everything has one.
00:21:05Just like you.
00:21:06Oh, how amusing.
00:21:11You think that you can...
00:21:11You can buy me off.
00:21:13I would love to see you try.
00:21:17Hmm.
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.
00:21:27This Grace Miller must be someone special.
00:21:29There aren't a lot of daughters like her out there.
00:21:32It's me.
00:21:33Make 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, 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.
00:21:58Okay?
00:21:59I don't want anyone seeing my mother.
00:22:00Yes, sir.
00:22:02You 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.
00:22:21Your son is a worthless parasite that vultures would refuse to eat.
00:22:30How dare you speak that way about my son?
00:22:33I was abandoned as a child.
00:22:49When I was 15 years old, my mom took me in and gave me a home.
00:22:55You may just see her as another nobody, working 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 going to stand here and let you humiliate her.
00:23:10Boo-hoo.
00:23:11I'm in tears.
00:23:13Who cares if we insult this old hag?
00:23:14My husband is the mayor.
00:23:17And we can do anything we want.
00:23:19As a matter of fact, my son can take you right here.
00:23:23And right now if he wants.
00:23:27I'm going to teach my wife some manners.
00:23:29No, no, no.
00:23:31Stay back, please.
00:23:32You will all regret this.
00:23:35No, stay back, please.
00:23:37Holy shit.
00:23:46Is that John Smith?
00:23:48The mayor's got some family problems you want to hear.
00:23:51And he's probably just here to help them out.
00:23:53Oh, oh, oh.
00:23:54Okay.
00:23:58What the hell?
00:23:59No, no, no.
00:23:59Go where?
00:24:00Let me.
00:24:00I could assure you the consequences for spreading unverified rumors in front of Mr. Smith are serious.
00:24:09Mr. Smith, please let us go.
00:24:11Please, sir, let 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.
00:24:27Our house is at the end of this road.
00:24:28All right.
00:24:29Looks like I'll have to take care of this myself.
00:24:33Don't let go of me.
00:24:34Let's go.
00:24:35Stop.
00:24:37Ah!
00:24:38Stop.
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.
00:24:51My mother's love means everything to me.
00:24:54I'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.
00:25:04Too bad that's not your decision to make.
00:25:07Mr. Smith?
00:25:08He actually came.
00:25:09Only the famous John Smith could arrive in such style.
00:25:12Mr. Smith, thank you for coming.
00:25:15What's going on here?
00:25:15You'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 him.
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.
00:25:41Yes, it's that woman right over there.
00:25:50Hello, John.
00:25:53Why 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,
00:26:03has 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?
00:26:13Ms. Miller!
00:26:14Ms. Miller!
00:26:17Ms. Miller, I owe everything to you.
00:26:20You started Sterling Corps and gave me my position.
00:26:23If you're really planning on leaving Phoenix Group, please, at least, let me drive you home.
00:26:30If you really want to share your gratitude, take good care of Sterling Group.
00:26:34I'm counting on you.
00:26:35How 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!
00:26:50You keep our boss's name out of your mouth or else I'll...
00:26:53Wait!
00:26:55You.
00:26:56You 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!
00:27:10Mr. Smith, this is just some old woman who works as a cheap laborer at the orphanage nearby.
00:27:17A day laborer?
00:27:18I 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 Mrs. Miller?
00:27:51Yeah.
00:27:51She's Phoenix Group's CEO.
00:27:53They say she controls all the city.
00:27:56But she disappeared years ago, when she gave control to her son when he turned 18.
00:28:01We 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.
00:28:12Mrs. Miller is here in town somewhere.
00:28:14I have to find and greet her.
00:28:16Can't let this petty situation get in the way.
00:28:19Take her to the church.
00:28:21No, let me go.
00:28:22I won't marry him.
00:28:23I need to stay with my mom.
00:28:25Try to get past me.
00:28:26See how that works.
00:28:32Try to get past me.
00:28:33See how that works out for you.
00:28:35Move aside, ma'am.
00:28:36Mr. 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.
00:28:44So, this is how you run Sterling Group now.
00:28:51Torment the weak?
00:28:52Throw your weight around?
00:28:54Shut your damn mouth.
00:28:56Stripper.
00:28:58Let her mother watch what happens to people who defy me.
00:29:03You are making your last mistake.
00:29:06You think I'm scared of some empty threats from an old hag in a wheelchair?
00:29:10What are you going to do about it?
00:29:12No, no, no, no.
00:29:15Ha!
00:29:43How could I be so foolish?
00:29:45Miss 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.
00:30:10I meant every word that I said.
00:30:12I said that when John Smith gets here, he will tremble and fall to his knees.
00:30:17And 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.
00:30:42Sir, what's the matter?
00:31:02On your knees.
00:31:03What, sir? She's just somebody.
00:31:04I said on your knees!
00:31:05Are 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?
00:31:29I'm warning you. Do 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 riding away and she doesn't have a penny to her name.
00:31:47Are 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.
00:32:03Address 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.
00:32:21I 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.
00:32:44The 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.
00:32:56John, return my daughter to me, and 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?
00:33:28On behalf of Sterling Core, I formally welcome you back to Phoenix Group.
00:33:41Welcome back, boss.
00:33:45She's the CEO of Phoenix Group?
00:33:52Phoenix Group's 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?
00:34:08Please.
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.
00:34:21Miss Miller, don'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!
00:35:02Help!
00:35:02Mr. 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.
00:35:54Don't worry, Dad.
00:35:55I've got this under control.
00:35:56Did 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.
00:36:39Sean, what's wrong?
00:36:40Today's my girlfriend's birthday, and she wants me to invite Miss Mary Miller to her party.
00:36:44What?
00:36:46She'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.
00:37:04Ugh.
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. Fine. I'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!
00:37:38Don't say I didn't warn you.
00:37:39I'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.
00:38:08The 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. I'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.
00:38:33Hear 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.
00:38:56Who 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.
00:39:21Mom.
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.
00:39:39Back 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.
00:40:16He'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?
00:40:30Where's 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.
00:41:25I 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.
00:41:52Under one condition.
00:41:55Marry 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...
00:42:26So if...
00:42:27So if marrying the mayor's son will protect you...
00:42:32Then I'll do it.
00:42:39Back off while you still can.
00:42:42If you hurt Grace or cross Miss Miller, you'll pay the price.
00:42:44Look at you, John.
00:42:46Completely entangled in this fraud spell.
00:42:49You know what's going to 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, you're finished.
00:43:02Miss Miller's returning to Phoenix Group today?
00:43:04With your boyfriend being Mr. Miller's assistant, surely 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.
00:43:49It's right here.
00:43:51A 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.
00:44:07Faking photos to play CEO?
00:44:09God, I've never seen anyone so desperate.
00:44:12What happened to all that talk about honesty and 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, you witch.
00:44:28Shut your damn mouth!
00:44:30Stay away from her, you monster!
00:44:35Good thing we've got some time on our hands anyway.
00:44:38And, bloke?
00:44:39Single moms are my favorite kind.
00:44:42A feisty one, huh?
00:44:46Just the way I like it.
00:44:49You sure this is the right location?
00:45:03The coordinates led us here, sir.
00:45:05The mayor will know where she is.
00:45:08This is perfect.
00:45:09The mayor's about to see his future son-in-law working 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.
00:45:18Yes, sir.
00:45:26This is private property, you can't show-
00:45:28That is Alexander Miller of the Phoenix Group that you're speaking to.
00:45:31Where 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.
00:45:48We didn't realize someone of your VIP status would be here.
00:45:52I didn't realize the mayor had such great connection.
00:45:54Right?
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, but 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?
00:46:16That'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?
00:46:37That can't be.
00:46:39Pick that piece of shit up and have him take us to my mother.
00:46:42Yes, sir.
00:46:45You 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.
00:47:17How dare you talk to Miss Miller like that?
00:47:26Joe, 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.
00:47:37You must 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.
00:47:56Please, stop!
00:47:58Everyone, stop!
00:47:59What 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'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.
00:48:20The sky could fall right now and I'm still going to have my fun with you.
00:48:24Yeah?
00:48:25Well, 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.
00:48:48What'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.
00:48:57Let her make the call.
00:48:58I 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?
00:49:20That's Mike from Phoenix Group.
00:49:23No one in this city dares cross him.
00:49:26But, 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.
00:49:42Brittany's right.
00:49:44We're about to welcome back the great Miss Miller.
00:49:47Nothing's changing that.
00:49:49Don't say I didn't give you a chance.
00:49:52Make your call, you fraud.
00:49:53Who's this?
00:50:04Mother?
00:50:11I can't believe they 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?
00:50:25You'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.
00:51:26Yes, sir.
00:51:28Yes, 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.
00:51:41Pathetic.
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.
00:51:51I 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.
00:52:05That's right.
00:52:22Keep your lesson.
00:52:23Stay away from me.
00:52:36Filthy slut!
00:52:38You make me sick!
00:52:50It came from over there!
00:52:52Let's go!
00:52:57The mayor's family is finished.
00:53:05Urgh! Urgh!
00:53:08Shane.
00:53:09Should've been a kill shot.
00:53:13You just burnt your last bridge.
00:53:15You will regret this.
00:53:17I'm just punishing a couple troublemakers.
00:53:20Is that a crime?
00:53:24Now, it's just you and me.
00:53:26Don't worry.
00:53:27I can treat you better than Jon ever could.
00:53:35Do you have another nightmare?
00:53:45Yeah.
00:53:47I'm sorry, sweetheart.
00:53:49You know I will always be here to protect you, right?
00:53:55I'm so sorry you have to go through that.
00:53:59Mom.
00:54:01This time, I'll protect you.
00:54:05Mom.
00:54:12It's your fault that we're in this mess.
00:54:14Just marry my brother like a good little girl,
00:54:17and we'll let your mother go!
00:54:19Yeah, we offered you a better life,
00:54:21and 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!
00:54:35Well, 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.
00:54:54When I'm done with you, you're gonna regret you were ever born.
00:54:59Still making threats?
00:55:01An old hag like you should be grateful I even want to touch you.
00:55:04If Brittany hadn't interrupted,
00:55:09we'd be having some real fun right now.
00:55:11Having fun right now.
00:55:12Having fun with who?
00:55:13Having fun with who?
00:55:14Who is he?
00:55:15That's some entrance.
00:55:16Look at those clothes.
00:55:17Must be connected to the mayor.
00:55:18Oh my sweet.
00:55:19Don't.
00:55:20Don't.
00:55:21Don't.
00:55:22Don't.

01:00:33You thought you actually deserved to see the real Ms. 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.
01:00:48Ms. 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.
01:01:03Ms. Miller, we were wrong.
01:01:09We'll never do anything like this again.
01:01:12Please, have mercy.
01:01:15Forgive us, just this once.
01:01:17You all tortured people for years.
01:01:21If I was to forgive you, you would go on and continue to hurt innocent people.
01:01:26Take them away.
01:01:27Deal with them accordingly.
01:01:30Take them away!
01:01:30Where do you think you're going?
01:01:42I 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!
01:02:26Mother!
01:02:27Mother, please!
01:02:29For your children, Anna!
01:02:41All these years in seclusion, I gave you everything.
01:02:45And yet all you wanted was for me to die?
01:02:48You've really shown your true colors.
01:02:51And you know what?
01:02:53Now you never have to call me mother again.
01:02:55You're not off the hook.
01:03:04I'll deal with you later.
01:03:08Yes, Miss Mother.
01:03:09My dear, somebody very special I want to introduce you to.
01:03:18Grace.
01:03:20This is my son, Alexander.
01:03:22It's an honor to meet you, sir.
01:03:24Please.
01:03:25You're my sister now.
01:03:27There's no need for formalities.
01:03:28Mother, I've arranged a welcome banquet for you at the Cloud Peak Restaurant.
01:03:31What better occasion to introduce my daughter to the whole world, the future heiress of the Phoenix Group.
01:03:41It's a historical day for the Phoenix Group.
01:03:49The city must know.
01:03:51Our CEO is back.
01:03:54I'll send out the invitations.
01:03:55Is that your boyfriend?
01:04:04The one that was studying abroad?
01:04:06Yes.
01:04:07He 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.
01:04:15That's wonderful.
01:04:17Take the call.
01:04:18But why don't you also invite him to the banquet tonight, okay?
01:04:21Okay.
01:04:24Hi.
01:04:27Cloud Peak Restaurant.
01:04:28Yeah, I can meet you there.
01:04:32There's actually something important I need to tell you.
01:04:48Who's that beautiful young woman?
01:05:10She must be someone important to be at Phoenix Group's banquet tonight.
01:05:13Nathan!
01:05:26Victoria?
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.
01:05:43But you promised me you'd give me a ring when you came back.
01:05:49Oh, he did get a ring.
01:05:51Just 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.
01:06:09That's right.
01:06:10My mother's a secretary at Phoenix Group.
01:06:12And she got Nathan the regional manager position at the company.
01:06:16Things change when you have the right connections.
01:06:20Isn'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.
01:06:30Oh, honey.
01:06:34Save yourself the humiliation and leave.
01:06:37You don't belong here.
01:06:39You don't belong here.
01:06:48Everything'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 Group.
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.
01:07:33And that dress, what'd you do?
01:07:38Steal it?
01:07:39Trash like you could never afford a dress like that.
01:07:42You 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.
01:07:51Don't worry, sweetheart.
01:08:12Your mother will always protect you now, okay?
01:08:21How 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.
01:08:36And 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.
01:08:48Who 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, 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, sweetheart, don't be afraid.
01:09:36You really do deserve someone better.
01:09:39Grace, 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 eager 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 sister?
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?
01:10:30Alexander, you must be confused.
01:10:36Grace is nothing but a worthless orphan.
01:10:40It's true, she's nothing but trash.
01:10:45She's garbage!
01:10:46Nothing but garbage!
01:10:54Who?
01:10:54Who are you?
01:11:00Since 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,
01:11:19Ms. Miller!
01:11:20She, she, she, she can't be!
01:11:46The, really, CEO of the Phoenix Group.
01:11:55Thank you all for coming this evening.
01:11:59During 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.
01:12:22Ah, you worthless bitch.
01:12:24This is all your fault.
01:12:26You made me betray Grace.
01:12:29Don't blame me because you threw away someone important.
01:12:34Grace, please.
01:12:35I 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.
01:12:50Your 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, we'll treat you like our own.
01:13:13When you thought my mom and I were nothing, you treated us like dirt.
01:13:18And then you stood by and watched while Nathan betrayed me and 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.
01:13:33Yes, 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 everyone finds out how you really became the Phoenix
01:13:58Group Ares by sleeping with your own adoptive brother.
01:14:06How dare you?
01:14:08That's a lie.
01:14:09Truth 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, I am regional manager at Phoenix Group.
01:14:25Just pay us the money.
01:14:26The Phoenix Group has the money.
01:14:28Or watch your reputation crumble.
01:14:30Is your mother's name Sarah Bell?
01:14:34She's the PR manager for Phoenix Group, right?
01:14:37So what old hag?
01:14:40Oh, wow.
01:14:41She 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 can take your stuff and get out of the city.
01:14:57You're going to have a very hard time finding any work here.
01:15:02Please 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.
01:15:19No, no, don't touch me!
01:15:22Grace!
01:15:22No, wait!
01:15:23Grace!
01:15:23I don't want to!
01:15:24Grace!
01:15:29Sweetheart, don't let his cruelty spoil this evening.
01:15:33This moment, it is yours.
01:15:36They can't hurt me anymore, Mom.
01:15:39Not with you by my side.
01:15:41My sweet daughter.
01:15:43You, you stuck by me when I was sick.
01:15:46And I almost died, and 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.
01:16:02Tonight, I want everyone to see who you really are.
01:16:12You're kind, compassionate, brilliant, unbreakable.
01:16:18And 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.
01:16:27My, my sweet daughter.
01:16:33Ladies and gentlemen, I have a very important announcement to make.
01:16:39Not 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!
01:17:12Thank you, Grace.
01:17:32You
