00:00:00Sir, our stock is being shorted aggressively. We're about to hit the limit down.
00:00:10What the hell is going on here?
00:00:13Half of you came from major investment banks.
00:00:16Our stock is about to crash, and you're telling me there's nothing we can do.
00:00:21Sir, this is a coordinated attack from multiple investment funds.
00:00:25They're shorting us simultaneously. There is nothing we can do.
00:00:29Sir, what are our next steps?
00:00:35Well, looks like Shepard Group might be bankrupt by lunch time.
00:00:45Hey, this is a private meeting.
00:00:46Mr. Jason, excuse me ma'am. Could you hold on our cleaning for just a couple of minutes?
00:00:50Mr. Shepard, building a public company in just five years? That's impressive.
00:00:57Yeah, but losing your cool over a little market turbulence? That seems out of character for you.
00:01:05Do I know you?
00:01:09Wait, what are you doing?
00:01:12What are you doing?
00:01:13You can't do this, you're just a cleaner.
00:01:15You can't be messing with our company funds.
00:01:18This is incredible!
00:01:20What's going on?
00:01:22The shorting attempt.
00:01:23It's failing!
00:01:24The price is holding!
00:01:27Boss, our stock price is reaching today's opening value.
00:01:31We met before.
00:01:34They're still cleaning to do Mr. Shepard.
00:01:37Hold on.
00:01:38Tell me, how could I ever repay you for this?
00:01:42If the opportunity ever arises, you could give your next contract for construction to Harrison Group.
00:01:51Jason?
00:01:52Can we have five now?
00:01:53Mr. Yates?
00:01:54What?
00:01:55Only two bodyguards this time?
00:01:56You're not going soft on me, are you?
00:01:57No, ma'am, I just thought you might like to scream today.
00:01:58Now, listen, everyone is waiting in New York for you to claim your inheritance as CEO of the Lewis Grimmel.
00:02:12Mr. Yates, you know what?
00:02:13I'm sorry.
00:02:14I'm sorry.
00:02:15You're not going soft on me, are you?
00:02:17No, ma'am, I just thought you might like to scream today.
00:02:21Now, listen, everyone is waiting in New York for you to claim your inheritance as CEO of the Lewis Grimmel.
00:02:25Mr. Yates, you know that my investigations here aren't finished.
00:02:29Ma'am, I still don't understand why you've kept your identity a secret and why you've married this Ben Harrison fellow.
00:02:35Look, today is Ben's birthday.
00:02:38Anything we need to discuss, we can do at some other time.
00:02:41Ma'am, it really is time for you to accept your inheritance.
00:02:45Because what I want is a simple life, with Ben.
00:02:50Ma'am, at least do me a favor and let Taylor go.
00:02:54Ma'am, do me a favor and let Toby walk you up to the house.
00:02:56For my sake.
00:03:07Divorce papers.
00:03:08Sign it.
00:03:09Why?
00:03:10You are not worthy of my son anymore.
00:03:11The Harrison Group is practically a local celebrity now, especially since it's landed a $100 million contract with the Shepherd Group.
00:03:27And you, you're just a cleaner.
00:03:31The truth is, Laura, I've wanted a divorce for a very long time.
00:03:35I need a wife who reflects my status.
00:03:37I secured that $100 million contract.
00:03:40Not you.
00:03:41A cleaning woman, handing out million dollar deals.
00:03:46Don't make me laugh.
00:03:48I did.
00:03:49It was my present to Ben for his birthday.
00:03:54I was the one who got Brian Harrison to give Ben that deal.
00:03:58What are you doing here?
00:04:00Clearly Ben has found himself a woman more suitable for the Harrison family.
00:04:04Amber's family is practically local royalty.
00:04:07A small town rich person is royalty.
00:04:12And what qualifications do you have to judge, Ms. Cleaner?
00:04:15Your resume boasts supermarket cashier and dinner waitress alongside janitor.
00:04:19Doesn't it, Ben?
00:04:23What's going on?
00:04:25Is this why you want a divorce?
00:04:27Because of her?
00:04:28Oh, please.
00:04:29I've spent years building Harrison Group.
00:04:31You're still a cleaner.
00:04:33We just grew apart, that's all.
00:04:35No.
00:04:37No, I won't sign any agreement, Ben.
00:04:43I won't sign any agreement.
00:04:47Huh.
00:04:49Money is a motivator, isn't it?
00:04:51Ben.
00:04:53Alright.
00:04:54Here.
00:04:55$100,000.
00:04:56Open up a small shop or something like that.
00:04:59$100,000.
00:05:01I was the one that helped you make Harrison Group what it is today.
00:05:07Do you have any idea how much money I've brought in for you?
00:05:10Don't be ridiculous.
00:05:11You've never done anything for Ben's success.
00:05:14This is our active charity to work.
00:05:17Here.
00:05:18A million dollars.
00:05:19Take this.
00:05:20You just want more money, don't you?
00:05:22Just leave and never see Ben again.
00:05:25I never expected my three years of devotion to end like this.
00:05:31Since none of you respect me.
00:05:35A cleaning lady, threatening us.
00:05:38I'm so scared.
00:05:40Just leave.
00:05:41You already make this house stink.
00:05:51Thank God she's gone.
00:05:52Go to the written store.
00:05:57Sir.
00:05:58Laura Lewis' information.
00:06:03She's Ben Harrison's wife.
00:06:05No wonder why she wanted us to part with him.
00:06:08Actually sir, Ben Harrison just divorced her.
00:06:10Before soon?
00:06:11Wait a minute.
00:06:12Don't you remember?
00:06:13Don't you remember?
00:06:14She's the one who helped us with the Smith contract three years ago.
00:06:17Yeah.
00:06:18She saved our hiding now.
00:06:19Remember?
00:06:20Why would Ben Harrison dump someone who just got him a $100,000,000 contract?
00:06:24I don't know.
00:06:25Let's get to the bottom of this.
00:06:26Hey!
00:06:27What are you doing?
00:06:28What are you doing?
00:06:29What are you doing?
00:06:30What are you doing?
00:06:31What are you doing?
00:06:32What are you doing?
00:06:33What are you doing?
00:06:34What are you doing?
00:06:35What are you doing?
00:06:36What are you doing?
00:06:37What are you doing?
00:06:38Hey!
00:06:39What are you doing?
00:06:40Let go of me!
00:06:41You attacked Amber!
00:06:42Apologize this instant!
00:06:47Stealing from the Harrisons.
00:06:48We gave you a generous divorce settlement.
00:06:50You refused it.
00:06:51And now you're stealing!
00:06:52She couldn't afford it.
00:06:53You're a thief!
00:06:55That's mine!
00:06:56Give it back!
00:06:57That's enough!
00:06:58Laura?
00:06:59I want to say thank you properly for saving Shepard Group.
00:07:12It's really no worries, Mr. Shepard, but I'm just going through a divorce.
00:07:18You see, it's...
00:07:20Who are you?
00:07:21Laura's new squeeze.
00:07:22Excuse me.
00:07:23Do you know who I am?
00:07:25Is this true?
00:07:26You hooked up with this man while you were married to my son?
00:07:29Shame on you!
00:07:30Mr. Shepard, I...
00:07:31For your information, my name is Brian Shepard.
00:07:34I'm CEO of the Shepard Group.
00:07:36Oh, please.
00:07:37A big shot like Brian Shepard wouldn't be called dead with a cleaner.
00:07:41You really don't recognize him, do you, Amber?
00:07:44That's really interesting considering I thought you were the one that secured that contract for Ben.
00:07:49That's ridiculous.
00:07:50He doesn't look like that.
00:07:52My ring.
00:07:53Jason, give it back to Ms. Lewis.
00:07:55Oh, hey, what are you doing?
00:08:00Laura, let's get you out of here.
00:08:02Now.
00:08:03Hold on a minute, Laura.
00:08:04Who the heck is this man?
00:08:05Have you been sneaking around?
00:08:07It's alright, ma'am.
00:08:08This is none of your business.
00:08:10I'll grab dead bodies.
00:08:12You're not going anywhere until I tell you tell us what's going on.
00:08:15We are the Harrisons.
00:08:17You can't just waltz in here and take her.
00:08:19Harrison, compared to the Shepard Group, you're nobody.
00:08:22Now go back.
00:08:23What?
00:08:24Are you saying that is Brian Shepard?
00:08:26That's a lie!
00:08:27Don't you dare walk away from me, Laura!
00:08:29You come back here and explain yourself!
00:08:31Don't you take another step towards my son, Laura!
00:08:33Laura, does Ben even know you were the one who secured the 100 million deal?
00:08:40Let's just say that Ben underestimated me.
00:08:45I don't feel good about going through the signing event.
00:08:48After how they treated you, maybe we should cancel it?
00:08:52No!
00:08:53Um...
00:08:54No.
00:08:55The event will proceed.
00:08:57Besides, I'll be there.
00:09:01There's a lot that I don't know about you, Laura.
00:09:05Who are you, truly?
00:09:07You'll find out, Mr. Shepard.
00:09:11Um, can you pull up over here, please?
00:09:17Mr. Yates, I want you to call all of the Lewis Group's business partners,
00:09:24and we're going to have a meeting, an investment meeting, one week from today.
00:09:30Make sure everyone is there.
00:09:35Because after that meeting, I'm going to reclaim my place as the CEO of Lewis Group.
00:09:41Oh, excellent, Ms. Lewis.
00:09:43I'll start making arrangements tomorrow.
00:09:45Ben Harrison, you're going to know exactly what it feels like to lose everything.
00:09:58After this ceremony, the Harrison family will finally be considered Maplewood City royalty.
00:10:03Only after then, my darling, we can get married.
00:10:07Laura, what are you doing here?
00:10:09Security!
00:10:10Get that woman out of here!
00:10:12We don't need cleaners at this event!
00:10:14Why wouldn't I be here?
00:10:16This is a business event, after all.
00:10:19Business?
00:10:20You wouldn't know business if I hit you on the head.
00:10:22A fancy dress doesn't make you high society, honey.
00:10:25Just get out!
00:10:26Don't tell me you've come looking for another rich man to play mistress for.
00:10:30You should have taken my $100,000 offer.
00:10:32Oh, Ben.
00:10:33Do you really think that you can sign this contract without me?
00:10:37Laura, this is really important for me.
00:10:39Do not ruin this, okay?
00:10:41You don't belong here.
00:10:43Just get out!
00:10:49That's what you get.
00:10:51This contract is mine to give or take away as I see fit.
00:11:02Don't be ridiculous!
00:11:03This is insane!
00:11:04Who do you think you are?
00:11:05Yeah, put that down.
00:11:06You have no idea what you're doing.
00:11:08Security!
00:11:09She's lost a mind!
00:11:10This is a disaster!
00:11:12Ben.
00:11:13This contract was supposed to be my birthday present to you.
00:11:17But since you clearly don't deserve it...
00:11:19You really think ripping up that contract is going to help you?
00:11:20You really think ripping up that contract is going to help you?
00:11:21You really don't deserve it?
00:11:22You really think ripping up that contract is going to help?
00:11:23You're so silly, Laura.
00:11:24Oh, please, honey.
00:11:25You couldn't explain business to a cleaning lady.
00:11:54Security, get this woman out of here before she makes another mess.
00:11:58I was the one that started this deal with the Shepherds.
00:12:01And after careful consideration, I don't think the Harrison family is worthy of working
00:12:08with the Shepherds.
00:12:09You really think that the Shepard group and I could be torn up by something that you've
00:12:13done?
00:12:14You have no authority here.
00:12:16Of course she has the authority.
00:12:24That's the man that Laura went with the other day.
00:12:27What is he doing here?
00:12:28Mr. Shepard?
00:12:29How does he know her?
00:12:30Is that really Brian Shepard?
00:12:32Laura, are you alright?
00:12:35Mr. Shepard, I can assure you, I don't even know this woman.
00:12:39There must be some sort of misunderstanding.
00:12:41There's no misunderstanding here, Mr. Harrison.
00:12:44This contract with Shepard group is officially terminated.
00:12:47Effective immediately.
00:12:49Wait a minute.
00:12:50This contract, I thought you said you got it.
00:12:54It's her.
00:12:55She ruined the contract.
00:12:57You are his mistress, aren't you?
00:12:59An affair?
00:13:00She had an affair with that man behind my son's back?
00:13:04Mom, please, it's okay.
00:13:06This man is-
00:13:07Don't touch me.
00:13:08That woman destroyed your career in front of everyone, has an affair and you just stand
00:13:13there?
00:13:14You're a disgrace.
00:13:15An adulterer.
00:13:16You deserve to be around-
00:13:17Shut up.
00:13:18Mr. Shepard, I apologize for this whole mess, but I can assure you, this woman has tricked
00:13:26you.
00:13:27Tricked?
00:13:28Why don't you answer a question yourself then?
00:13:32What was my name before we got married?
00:13:36Laura Lewis, right?
00:13:38Lewis Group?
00:13:39The Financial Giants?
00:13:41There's no way a Lewis is connected to this.
00:13:45What?
00:13:46That's crazy.
00:13:47There's no way you're related to the Lewis family name.
00:13:50That's absurd.
00:13:51It's-
00:13:52It's-
00:13:53It's absurd!
00:13:54A High Society Ayers wouldn't waste their time in Maplewood.
00:13:59Yeah.
00:14:00Yeah, it's a lie.
00:14:01It's a lie.
00:14:02This woman was a waitress when I met her.
00:14:03In fact, I saved her from a robbery three years ago.
00:14:07She's nothing special.
00:14:08She only married me out of gratitude.
00:14:10I was just a waitress.
00:14:13How convenient for your story, Ben.
00:14:16First time I met her, she was indeed a waitress at the diner.
00:14:19Okay, listen up everybody.
00:14:20When I met her, I'd only just started my business.
00:14:24Mm-hmm.
00:14:25Now look at me.
00:14:26I'm signing multi-million dollar contracts.
00:14:28And look at her.
00:14:29Still just a clear.
00:14:30Mr. Shepard, that woman is my son's ex-wife.
00:14:35She's doing all this out of spite.
00:14:37She's lying, Mr. Shepard.
00:14:39She's just a cleaning lady for your business, isn't she?
00:14:42Let's make something clear.
00:14:46I was the one behind Harrison Group's success.
00:14:50I used my resources to help my ex-husband.
00:14:55But all he saw me as was the maid.
00:14:57Don't lie.
00:14:58You were never good enough for Ben when you married him.
00:15:01Oops.
00:15:02That roof was built with lies.
00:15:05Kathy, you never respected me.
00:15:07And Ben?
00:15:09Dumping me the second you thought you were successful on your own.
00:15:12And the cheating.
00:15:14I think you're blaming the wrong person.
00:15:18You were not good enough for Ben then and you're certainly not good enough for him now.
00:15:22If you'd prefer to believe a liar's story, then the truth, Kathy.
00:15:29Consider this my resignation from the Harrisons.
00:15:32From everything.
00:15:34Wait, wait, wait, wait, Laura.
00:15:39You think you can just walk in here and, you know, ruin everything?
00:15:41And then just walk out like nothing happened?
00:15:43I don't think so.
00:15:44You're a cleaner.
00:15:46You're a cleaner that cleans toilets.
00:15:48Nobody cares about you.
00:15:49Cleaning toilets or not, at least I have my self-respect.
00:15:53I don't need a fancy title.
00:15:56Or a rich husband to feel important.
00:16:00I think there has been some sort of misunderstanding.
00:16:05I think all jobs are important.
00:16:07Right, Mom?
00:16:08Ben, what are you doing?
00:16:10But I don't think that a janitor should have some sort of influence over a deal as big as this.
00:16:15A janitor.
00:16:17Well, why don't we ask Miss Smith exactly how she landed that collaboration with Shepard?
00:16:25You did.
00:16:26Claimed to have been the one that secured the deal.
00:16:29Weren't you, Miss Smith?
00:16:31Mr. Shepard, it's all a lie.
00:16:33This woman, Laura, she's just a gold digger trying to trick you.
00:16:38I... but, well...
00:16:40A lie, you say?
00:16:41Miss Smith, I believe you mentioned securing this contract for Harris Syndrome.
00:16:45But I don't recognize you.
00:16:47Is this true, Miss Smith?
00:16:49Miss Lewis has helped me on several occasions.
00:16:54This contract was my way of showing my appreciation.
00:16:58But the contract...
00:17:00I mean, Laura tore it up.
00:17:02So can't we just print another one and get this signing ceremony underway?
00:17:06Reprint it, Mr. Harrison.
00:17:09Perhaps you haven't been paying attention without Miss Lewis involvement.
00:17:13I wouldn't even consider partnering with your company.
00:17:17Today, I want to make it clear.
00:17:22Shepard Group has no plans to partner with Harrison Group in the future.
00:17:31Miss Smith, you lied to us.
00:17:33You destroyed everything.
00:17:34What?
00:17:35No, it's a misunderstanding.
00:17:36I can explain.
00:17:37Louis?
00:17:38Louis Family Group?
00:17:39This can't be.
00:17:40Believe what you want, Ben.
00:17:45Louis Group will be holding a massive investment meeting later this week.
00:17:50Three of our vice presidents will be here in Maplewood.
00:17:55And I'm sure you can ask them if you still have any doubts about who I am.
00:18:01Everyone, listen to me.
00:18:04Shepherd Group will not be partnering with Harrison.
00:18:09A man who can't keep his vows to his wife cannot be trusted to keep his word on the contract.
00:18:15The charade is over, Mr. Harrison.
00:18:18Everyone here deserves to see the truth.
00:18:20Miss Lewis, shall we take this conversation elsewhere?
00:18:26Help!
00:18:27Mom!
00:18:28Someone get a doctor!
00:18:29Mom!
00:18:30It seems your night has taken quite the turn, Mr. Shepherd.
00:18:43Indeed.
00:18:44Perhaps it's best to leave them to it.
00:18:58What?
00:18:59What now?
00:19:00Mom, this is not all on me.
00:19:03Not on you?
00:19:04I was trying to help.
00:19:06She cheated on you with Shepherd.
00:19:08Flaunted their affair.
00:19:10Exactly.
00:19:11And those dresses?
00:19:13Who could afford those on a janitor's salary?
00:19:15Miss Smith, how could you do this?
00:19:18We trusted you completely.
00:19:20No, no.
00:19:21I got Ben the deal.
00:19:23I had no idea Shepherd would fall for Bora.
00:19:26She's a liar.
00:19:28Well, stop it, Amber.
00:19:30You lied to us just as much as she did.
00:19:32Lied?
00:19:33You're on my side.
00:19:35And anyways, I have a plan.
00:19:38The Shepherds are no one special.
00:19:40We can expose Laura in all her lies.
00:19:43Go national.
00:19:44We can make ourselves a household name.
00:19:47Now, if you'll excuse me, I have a very important phone call to make.
00:19:57Thank you so much for tonight, Mr. Shepherd.
00:20:00Thank you as well for standing up for me.
00:20:02It's alright, Laura.
00:20:04You deserve the credit for all your hard work.
00:20:06Can I ask you something?
00:20:07Do you have any place to stay tonight?
00:20:09Maybe a hotel?
00:20:11Don't worry about me, Mr. Shepherd.
00:20:13I'll be fine.
00:20:14Excuse me, you can just drop me off.
00:20:17Actually, Laura.
00:20:18Actually, Laura.
00:20:19There is something else.
00:20:21Would you consider to go out for dinner sometime?
00:20:23Just casually, of course.
00:20:25Mr. Shepherd, are you asking me out?
00:20:30Please, call me Brian.
00:20:32And yes, technically you're single now.
00:20:37Yes, that may be true, but going out with a newly divorced ex-cleaner isn't exactly proper.
00:20:47Proper?
00:20:49Laura, I don't give a damn about appearances.
00:20:54Tonight, I saw your intelligence and your strength.
00:20:58Those are qualities I truly admire.
00:21:01So what do you say?
00:21:03Dinner?
00:21:04Just two people getting to know each other.
00:21:08I'm sorry, Mr. Shepherd.
00:21:13I actually have another appointment tonight, so I can't.
00:21:17Wait, Laura.
00:21:18Just here is fine.
00:21:22Laura?
00:21:27Laura, who is it?
00:21:29Laura, wait!
00:21:31Jason, find out who owns that car and do it fast.
00:21:43Ian Lewis, who is this?
00:21:46It's Amber Smith.
00:21:48Mr. Lewis?
00:21:49I'm sorry for the late call, but I believe I have some urgent information about your family.
00:21:54I don't know who you are, Ms. Smith.
00:21:57How did you get this number?
00:21:59Don't worry about that right now.
00:22:01I believe I know someone impersonating Laura Lewis.
00:22:04Someone I know very well.
00:22:06Impersonating my niece?
00:22:09And where is this fake Laura?
00:22:13Right here in Maplewood.
00:22:15And let me tell you, she's causing quite a scene.
00:22:18Well, what is she doing exactly?
00:22:22And more to the point, what do you want from me?
00:22:27In the next few days, the Lewis Group will hold an investment meeting, right?
00:22:32I want to meet with the Vice Presidents.
00:22:34All will be revealed then.
00:22:36Very well.
00:22:37I'll have my secretary arrange a meeting.
00:22:40But be warned, if this is a waste of my time, I-
00:22:43It won't be.
00:22:44Trust me, Mr. Lewis.
00:22:46Thank you, Mr.
00:22:47That little rascal, Laura.
00:22:55I wonder what she's up to now.
00:22:59That car belongs to Mr. Yeats, the Lewis family butler.
00:23:07Oh.
00:23:09Lewis family?
00:23:11That's interesting.
00:23:13Could she be connected to them somehow?
00:23:16I'm not sure.
00:23:18Brian!
00:23:20There you are.
00:23:21I've missed you.
00:23:22Chloe.
00:23:23What are you up to?
00:23:24Chloe.
00:23:25What are you up to?
00:23:26Chloe.
00:23:27What are you doing here?
00:23:28What do you mean?
00:23:30Can't I visit the man I love?
00:23:32We ended things for a reason.
00:23:34It was just one teensy mistake.
00:23:36I was- I was a little bit tipsy.
00:23:39Doesn't everyone deserve a second chance?
00:23:41Teensy mistake you said?
00:23:42You cheated on me.
00:23:44Is this your new fling?
00:23:49Ex-divorcey.
00:23:51Used a clean floor.
00:23:53It's quite the catch, you say.
00:23:56Look.
00:23:57My relationship with her is none of your business.
00:24:00And don't you dare talk about her like that.
00:24:03Please.
00:24:05An ex-cleaner turned social climber latching onto a wealthy businessman.
00:24:09It's a classic story.
00:24:10That's enough.
00:24:11I'll get the hell out of my office.
00:24:14You want to be careful, Brian.
00:24:16Duke Industries still holds a lot of weight in Maplewood.
00:24:19If you want Shepard Group to stay afloat,
00:24:22you ought to be more careful.
00:24:27Seems like you've got more on your plate than Laura's secrets now.
00:24:36This is it.
00:24:37The Lewis Group Vice Presidents are on the top floor.
00:24:40Once I'm done speaking with them,
00:24:42I'll have Ben's company rolling in business investments.
00:24:45I'll go speak with them first, and then I'll introduce you.
00:24:49Well, well, well.
00:24:51Look who it is.
00:24:52What a surprise.
00:24:54Did Brian teach you already?
00:24:56That's none of your business.
00:24:59Now move aside, please.
00:25:00Laura?
00:25:01Just what do you think you're doing, you street rat?
00:25:04You really think you can just ruin my events again?
00:25:06Haven't you ruined my life enough?
00:25:07Don't you have any shame?
00:25:09If you'll excuse me, I have an important meeting to get to.
00:25:13Oh, the nerve.
00:25:14After everything you've done, you think you can just waltz in here and manipulate them too?
00:25:19Seriously?
00:25:20I think you need to reconsider exactly who's manipulating who here.
00:25:25Oh, that's gold.
00:25:27You really think that they're gonna let you in, Laura?
00:25:29Please.
00:25:30You're no one compared to me.
00:25:31You don't deserve to be here.
00:25:33The only ones who don't belong here are you three.
00:25:38And you, idiot.
00:25:40Believing every lie that she tells you.
00:25:42Wake.
00:25:43Up.
00:25:44Ben.
00:25:45Oh, Laura.
00:25:46Laura, come on.
00:25:47Why do you always pull this on me?
00:25:48I mean, seriously, can't you just let me enjoy one of my events for once?
00:25:52I know what this is.
00:25:55So stupid.
00:25:56Oh, such a trap.
00:25:59Amber spoke directly with the CEO.
00:26:01He invited her to meet with the VPs before the main meeting.
00:26:04Yeah.
00:26:05Amber got me a partnership with the Loose Group.
00:26:08And unlike some people, I have a real invitation.
00:26:11Well, before you all start celebrating, why don't you take a look at this.
00:26:22Oh, that's rich.
00:26:23You may have Brian Shepard fooled, but you can't fool me.
00:26:26I spoke to Ian Lewis himself, CEO of Loose Group.
00:26:30Speaking of Brian, where is he right now?
00:26:33You mean my uncle?
00:26:36Ian, don't be ridiculous.
00:26:39Ian Lewis personally gave me this invitation himself.
00:26:43And besides, this looks fake.
00:26:46She's a liar.
00:26:48This is a personal invitation from Mr. Yates himself.
00:26:53It grants me access to the VIP elevator, which leads straight to the Vice Presidential Suite.
00:26:58She's lying.
00:26:59They don't have a VIP elevator in this hotel.
00:27:06Is there a special elevator for VIPs in this hotel?
00:27:09Not that I know of.
00:27:11See?
00:27:12She's lying.
00:27:13There you have it, Laura.
00:27:15Even the hotel staff can spot a fake.
00:27:17Go on, get lost before things get worse.
00:27:19Here.
00:27:20Take this one.
00:27:21Lead me to the Vice Presidents.
00:27:22You have no idea what you just did.
00:27:27There will be consequences.
00:27:32Besides, if you have this relationship with Ian Lewis that you claim to have, why don't you just ask him to get the two of them an invitation?
00:27:44Security!
00:27:45Security!
00:27:46Security!
00:27:47We need this woman removed immediately.
00:27:48She is harassing me.
00:27:49We're done with your games, Laura.
00:27:51You're just a fraud.
00:27:52Ma'am, place with me.
00:27:53What?
00:27:54Hold on!
00:27:58Brian Shepard?
00:27:59You think money buys you the right to walk all over people?
00:28:02Well, it doesn't.
00:28:03Yeah.
00:28:04It wasn't enough to kick us out of Maplewood, was it, huh?
00:28:07What other plans do you have to destroy this time?
00:28:09Get you out?
00:28:10After what you did to Laura, you had it coming.
00:28:13Don't play dumb.
00:28:15We know exactly what's been happening here.
00:28:17How long has this little affair been going on?
00:28:19You've been sleeping with her since she was married to my son.
00:28:22Hold on a second.
00:28:24An affair?
00:28:25You think Laura and I...
00:28:28You people are unbelievable.
00:28:32Mr. Carter, get down here ASAP.
00:28:35We have a situation.
00:28:37What, you think you can just boss the manager around now, is that it?
00:28:40We'll stick around and watch you crash and burn.
00:28:42Miss Lewis, apologies for the delay.
00:28:44How can I help you this evening?
00:28:46Thank you, Mr. Carter, for getting down here so quickly.
00:28:50It seems there's a misunderstanding.
00:28:53These people don't think that I belong here.
00:28:56Well, Mr. Carter, I can assure you, this woman is a cleaner.
00:28:59A cleaner? Nonsense.
00:29:01I personally agreed to Miss Lewis upon her arrival in Maplewood three years ago.
00:29:05Exactly.
00:29:07Lewis Group, my company, has some major investments planned here in Maplewood.
00:29:14I was just here investigating potential business opportunities.
00:29:18No, this woman doesn't know the difference between business and a hole in the ground.
00:29:22She's been this way since my son divorced her. She's insane.
00:29:25Actually, I met Laura three years ago at the coffee shop.
00:29:29She helped secure a profitable investment for Shepard Group.
00:29:34No! It's a lie!
00:29:36Mr. Shepard, she's tricking you too!
00:29:41You know, it's exhausting trying to argue with people who forget who helped them.
00:29:48Mr. Carter, would you mind showing me to the VIP elevator?
00:29:51Wait, is that why you're covering for her? Huh? Because of the affair? Because she slept with you?
00:29:55Excuse me?
00:29:56Of course.
00:29:57Who are you and how dare you speak to Miss Lewis that way?
00:30:00Enough of this. She's right.
00:30:01That's enough. Heaven will embarrass herself enough.
00:30:04This is Lewis Group property. Behave or I'll call security.
00:30:08But she doesn't even have a VIP entrance access. She shouldn't be here.
00:30:13Since you're having trouble understanding them, let me make it clear.
00:30:17This hotel is owned by the Lewis family.
00:30:21It's mine. To come or go as I please.
00:30:29Thank you for stepping in, Brian. I owe you one.
00:30:34We'll talk about this later.
00:30:35Well, it seems that divorcing a powerful woman wasn't the best decision, Mr. Everson.
00:30:48Come in!
00:30:49Excuse me, Vice Presidents. I'm Amber Smith, General Manager of the Lewis Group Maplewood Branch. I believe Ian Lewis told you about our meeting today?
00:31:01Maplewood Branch. Our records don't show any Maplewood Branch, Miss Smith. Are you sure you haven't gotten something mixed up?
00:31:10Ian Lewis, Mr. Lewis reassured me that today we would discuss, well, expansion plans.
00:31:21Expansion plans? Miss Smith? A decision like that wouldn't be taken without board approval. And frankly, we haven't heard anything about Maplewood Branch.
00:31:31But Ian Lewis assured me that-
00:31:35Miss Smith, we have a very important guest arriving soon. Perhaps you'd like to schedule a follow-up meeting with one of our staff?
00:31:42Maybe I can stay for this guest and offer some local-
00:31:44Miss Smith, we'd like you to leave. If you don't, we'll call security.
00:31:48Hey, stop there. These elevators are VIP only. Back, please.
00:31:59Of course. My apologies.
00:32:07Laura?
00:32:10Vice Presidents! It's so good to see all of you again.
00:32:15Miss Lewis, it's been too long.
00:32:17Your return is a lifesaver, Miss Lewis. The Lewis Group has floundered under your uncle's, well, shall we say, unconventional leadership.
00:32:27The board are begging you to come back, Miss Lewis.
00:32:31Well, please sit. Yes, well, it is time for me to get my career back on track.
00:32:38We've got a meeting planned, a big one, in just a few days.
00:32:42There's local powerhouses and smaller players, too. They'll all be there in one spot.
00:32:49Miss Lewis, we met with an Amber Smith.
00:32:52She claimed your uncle appointed her general manager of a Maplewood branch for the Lewis Group.
00:33:01She said that, did she? Well, Miss Smith is a liar. There is no Maplewood branch, at least not yet.
00:33:06Well, she lied so blatantly. It was, it's unbelievable.
00:33:11Bob, don't worry. I found a much more suitable partner.
00:33:14Shepard Group.
00:33:19Shepard Group? Their rise to a public company has been impressive.
00:33:23Do you have anything to do with that?
00:33:26So, what happens now with this Amber Smith?
00:33:30Oh, don't worry about Amber. I've got plans for her.
00:33:35Miss Lewis, consider this your official invitation to the legend from us.
00:33:48Cheers. Cheers.
00:33:50I'm not leaving. What are you talking about? No, come on.
00:34:02Wait! I'm Amber Smith. I'm the Lewis Group manager of Maplewood branch. What are you doing? These are my guests.
00:34:07Yeah, that's right. Tell them who we are.
00:34:09Yes, we were waiting for Miss Smith.
00:34:13Lewis Group Maplewood branch? No such thing, ma'am. And frankly, I'm not interested in your act.
00:34:18Of course. Laura! She's probably sleeping with the manager as well.
00:34:23That's how she gets away with everything.
00:34:26You underestimate her, Cathy. She's probably sleeping with all three vice presidents.
00:34:30No way a girl like her could get into a hotel like this.
00:34:33Careful with your words. Both of you. Acquisitions like that can get you in serious trouble.
00:34:42Look who can't even get into a meeting, whilst I secure three with all the vice presidents.
00:34:47And let's not forget the mystery guests that they're bringing to Maplewood.
00:34:51Looks like she used you and tossed you aside.
00:34:54Used me? Unlike some people, I don't mind being helpful.
00:34:58You're so stupid. She threw you away like yesterday's trash.
00:35:03Don't worry, Brian. You deserve better. And let's not forget, I'm the new Maplewood branch manager of Lewis Group, appointed by the CEO of Lewis Group themselves, Ian Lewis.
00:35:13New branch manager, huh? Interesting.
00:35:18Laura Lewis? What are you doing here? Get out of here!
00:35:21You claim to be the mystery guest.
00:35:24Don't play games, Laura. I was formally invited by Lewis Group themselves to the investment meeting.
00:35:30Only the top companies get those. Looks like you're all out of luck.
00:35:35Is that so?
00:35:37Well then, there seems to be a misunderstanding.
00:35:42You see, I'm not sure if you know Miss Smith, but Lewis Group is my company.
00:35:47And I decide who goes to the meetings.
00:35:49Escort them out. Their visit is over.
00:35:56Oh, come on. This way, please.
00:35:58I'm not leaving.
00:36:00Move. We're not leaving again. Move.
00:36:02Oh, no, no, no. We're not going now.
00:36:05This isn't over, Laura. You'll see.
00:36:07You'll see.
00:36:10Thanks for waiting, friend.
00:36:13Laura, I'm glad you're okay.
00:36:17And thank you for defending me. I really appreciate it.
00:36:25Um, are you coming to the meeting?
00:36:28Yes, but it's gonna be tricky.
00:36:35Why? I'm sure that Shepard Group got an invitation.
00:36:41Yes, Laura.
00:36:45There's something you should know.
00:36:47Is this about Ben?
00:36:51Because I can assure you that he won't cause any problems.
00:36:54He won't even get past security.
00:36:56Laura, it's not Ben.
00:37:00It's someone else.
00:37:03Someone's causing problems for Shepard Group?
00:37:08Yes.
00:37:10Her name is Chloe Duke.
00:37:13She is daughter of the Duke family.
00:37:17She's my ex-fiancee.
00:37:20And, uh, let's say things didn't end so well between us.
00:37:24And, let's just say we didn't end things so well.
00:37:31And for some reason, she's having a hard time moving on.
00:37:36And, you think that she's gonna cause problems at the meeting?
00:37:44For...
00:37:48Out of...
00:37:50Jealousy?
00:37:52There's a possibility.
00:37:53She's kind of jealous.
00:37:55Well...
00:37:57All the more reason for you to be there.
00:38:00Besides...
00:38:02I'll be there too.
00:38:06Laura...
00:38:08Would you consider being my guest at the meeting?
00:38:12What?
00:38:14Are you worried that this Chloe's gonna cause problems for me too?
00:38:17Maybe a little.
00:38:19But mostly...
00:38:20I wanna show them we're a team.
00:38:23Well...
00:38:24It's a very kind offer, Mr. Shepard.
00:38:28Laura...
00:38:33I don't care about your best.
00:38:36I just want to be by your side.
00:38:38I think I'm falling for you.
00:38:39For you.
00:38:43Ryan...
00:38:49I...
00:38:50I appreciate...
00:38:51Your honesty and...
00:38:53Right now...
00:38:54I...
00:38:55I'm just not...
00:38:56I...
00:38:57I just don't really have romance...
00:38:59On my mind right now.
00:39:00Just...
00:39:01With...
00:39:02With everything going on...
00:39:03And...
00:39:04Going on and...
00:39:05It's okay.
00:39:06I just want to be upfront.
00:39:09And if Chloe tries anything...
00:39:11You won't face her alone.
00:39:16There's just...
00:39:17One thing...
00:39:18I do need.
00:39:20What is it?
00:39:23A formal dress.
00:39:24Oh...
00:39:25Security!
00:39:26She doesn't belong here.
00:39:27This is a private store.
00:39:28Excuse me.
00:39:29We...
00:39:30Need some assistance.
00:39:31I'm looking for...
00:39:32A very particular dress.
00:39:33Wow.
00:39:34It's...
00:39:35Beautiful.
00:39:36It is.
00:39:37I'll try this one on.
00:39:38Uh...
00:39:39Don't bother with her.
00:39:40She can't afford anything here.
00:39:41She's just a cleaner.
00:39:42She doesn't deserve to shop you.
00:39:43She has no money.
00:39:44Yeah, exactly.
00:39:45I mean, what are you doing here?
00:39:46Can't you just leave me alone?
00:39:47I would never...
00:39:48You know...
00:39:49I...
00:39:50I'd never get to go.
00:39:51There's nothing wrong here.
00:39:52There's nothing wrong here.
00:39:53This is a private store.
00:39:54Excuse me.
00:39:55I'm...
00:39:56Can't you...
00:39:57I'll try this one on.
00:39:58Uh...
00:39:59I...
00:40:00Don't bother with her.
00:40:01She can't afford anything here.
00:40:02She's just a cleaner.
00:40:03She doesn't deserve to shop you.
00:40:04She has no money.
00:40:05Yeah, exactly.
00:40:06Can't you just leave me alone?
00:40:08I wouldn't bat an eyelash if you just disappeared.
00:40:10I'm here for retail therapy.
00:40:12Oh, please.
00:40:14This store is for the A-list only.
00:40:16Not some cheatskate like you.
00:40:18Says the woman who barged into my marriage.
00:40:20Hey, show some respect.
00:40:22Typical Laura.
00:40:24Just thinks she can buy anything she wants with someone else's money.
00:40:28I would have asked you, but without me, I'm sure you're already broke.
00:40:32Oh, please. Come on, we'll take the dress.
00:40:34Sir, this particular dress is not for sale.
00:40:38What do you mean you don't sell it?
00:40:40I want it. Name your price.
00:40:42It's not about the price, ma'am.
00:40:44This one was custom-made for Miss Lewis, the Lewis Group heiress.
00:40:48The entire brand belongs to her.
00:40:50This beautiful dress is for display purposes only. Thank you.
00:40:54It wouldn't suit you anyway, Amber.
00:40:56What are you talking about? Of course it would suit her. It'd fit her just fine.
00:41:00And if it wouldn't fit me, it certainly wouldn't fit your chunky self.
00:41:03Well, buying the whole store. Allow me to purchase this dress.
00:41:09Oh, please. Don't you know that this store belongs to Lewis Group?
00:41:15We wouldn't sell it to someone like you.
00:41:17Amber, you're not even a branch manager yet. You don't get to speak on behalf of Lewis Group.
00:41:23Could you please tell me more about this dress?
00:41:27Of course. It was custom-made for Laura Lewis, heiress to the Lewis Group Fortune.
00:41:33Hand-stitched in Italy, naturally. And apparently there are many more like it.
00:41:37High-end stores and museums around the world from her private collection.
00:41:43Laura, do you like this dress?
00:41:47Of course. It's custom-made for me. I'm just here to take what's already mine.
00:41:53Oh, you can't be serious. There must be millions of Laura Lewis's out there in the world.
00:41:57Fine, fine. If it's not for sale, can't I at least try it on? It would look incredible on me.
00:42:03Miss, this dress is very delicate. If I may be frank, I don't think this would fit you properly.
00:42:11Are you calling me fat?
00:42:13Actually, on a second thought, why don't we just buy the whole brand? How's that sound?
00:42:19Sir, are you serious? You would just buy the entire brand for one dress?
00:42:24This brand is worth at least $50 million. And to buy it for a waitress? Are you out of your mind?
00:42:32Yes. You see, even if you had the money, they wouldn't sell it to you.
00:42:36Just one second.
00:42:39Yes, this is Brian Shepherd, CEO of Shepherd Group.
00:42:43I'd like to speak with your head of acquisitions.
00:42:46I'm interested in purchasing your high fashion brand.
00:42:52What?
00:42:55Sorry, sir. That brand is not for sale.
00:42:58You see, if we can't have it, neither can you.
00:43:05Mr. Yates, yes, this is Laura Lewis.
00:43:09I'm calling to discuss the sale of our high-end clothing brand to Shepherd Group.
00:43:15Oh, come on. Calling the Lewis family butler won't get you anywhere, sweetie.
00:43:19Exactly. God, this is pathetic. If you really think this is going to work, it's sad.
00:43:23Excellent.
00:43:25Thank you, Mr. Yates, that's all.
00:43:34Yes?
00:43:38What?
00:43:40Oh, you're willing to sell me the brand?
00:43:43Awesome.
00:43:49Hello?
00:43:51Yes?
00:43:53Wow. Yes, of course.
00:43:55Absolutely.
00:43:59This store, along with the entire brand, has been sold to Mr. Shepherd.
00:44:03The Shepherd Group is the new owner.
00:44:06How may I be of service today, sir?
00:44:08Well, Lauren, I don't know much about pressure,
00:44:12so I would like to give you this brand to you.
00:44:15You can't be serious.
00:44:17You don't have the kind of money to buy this store.
00:44:19Don't listen to her, Brian.
00:44:22You two just go do whatever you do somewhere else.
00:44:25You're not welcome here.
00:44:27I want the two of these out of my store.
00:44:33I want the two of these out of my store.
00:44:36Of course.
00:44:39Oh, come on.
00:44:40Sir? Ma'am?
00:44:41We're afraid I have to ask you to leave?
00:44:42Well, we're not leaving, okay?
00:44:44Hey, hey, hey!
00:44:46This isn't over, Laura!
00:44:48Could I try the dress on now?
00:44:49Of course, Miss Lewis.
00:44:51You just follow me.
00:44:58Wow.
00:44:59Miss Lewis, this dress really was made for you.
00:45:06Laura, you look breathtaking in this dress.
00:45:10Brian, why would you do all of this for me?
00:45:16Laura, because you deserve everything beautiful in the world.
00:45:23And that includes this dress.
00:45:28Will you give us a chance to see where things could go?
00:45:32I...
00:45:34I need a moment.
00:45:36Perhaps we could talk some more about this after the investment meeting?
00:45:41Does that mean you could be a yes?
00:45:44Maybe.
00:45:50Hi.
00:45:51Hi.
00:46:02What?
00:46:04Well, well, well.
00:46:06Look who decided to join the party.
00:46:08Playing dress-up again, Laura?
00:46:09One more disrespectful remark towards Laura, Miss Smith.
00:46:13And you understand the meaning of rude.
00:46:15You threatening my girlfriend in front of everyone?
00:46:18For this.
00:46:19This gold digger.
00:46:21You know, Ben, I really cared about you, even after all the horrible things you said to me after our divorce.
00:46:26I know the name of a great psychologist in New York.
00:46:31Maybe the shrinks in Maplewood aren't equipped to deal with your issues.
00:46:36Enough!
00:46:38I've had enough of this drama.
00:46:39Yeah, me too.
00:46:41Try that again, and you'll regret it.
00:46:44Now get the hell out of my face.
00:46:46Let's see if you two even make it past the door.
00:46:48Yeah.
00:46:50I'm sorry, Miss Smith, but your name's not on the guest list.
00:46:54What?
00:46:55That's impossible.
00:46:57I was invited by the CEO himself.
00:47:02Unfortunately, neither Harrison Group or Smith Group.
00:47:05Your name is on the list.
00:47:07Looks like you two won't be getting let in after all.
00:47:10You don't have an invitation.
00:47:12You're just here because of Brian.
00:47:13Let me see this. This doesn't even look real.
00:47:20It's different from mine.
00:47:22Why don't you ask her if it's real?
00:47:26This appears to be a VIP invitation from the Vice President.
00:47:31Please, right this way.
00:47:33We can continue this discussion later, if you manage to get in.
00:47:36Sir, Madam, we recommend you leave.
00:47:45There you are!
00:47:47How dare you steal my fiancé!
00:47:51There you are!
00:47:53How dare you steal my fiancé!
00:47:55Looks like another relationship bites the dust, Laura.
00:47:58Looks like stealing men is a habit of yours.
00:48:01Get away from him!
00:48:03He's engaged to me!
00:48:04Hey, hey, hey.
00:48:05Hold your horses, Gwen.
00:48:07That ended a long time ago.
00:48:09Engaged to you.
00:48:11Everyone in Maplewood knows what you did to Brian.
00:48:14Your relationship's history.
00:48:17That was just a little tiff.
00:48:19You really think that could tear us apart?
00:48:22Don't you know who I am?
00:48:24Don't pretend like you don't know.
00:48:26Oh, honey.
00:48:28She don't recognize royalty, let alone a duke.
00:48:30She's just a maid, remember?
00:48:32I don't have time for all this drama.
00:48:35Brian?
00:48:37Let's head inside.
00:48:39Brian!
00:48:40How could you choose this cleaner over me?
00:48:44Are you really gonna humiliate me in front of all of Maplewood?
00:48:48There's nothing left to say, Gloria.
00:48:50Don't make this a scene.
00:48:51Shall we?
00:48:52You okay, Miss Duke?
00:48:54And you are?
00:48:55Amber Smith.
00:48:56I'm the Maplewood branch manager of Lewis Group.
00:48:58What branch?
00:48:59I've never heard of it.
00:49:00What do you want from me?
00:49:01That Laura!
00:49:03She tore up my invitation.
00:49:04Do you think you can get me inside?
00:49:06What, your little manager title couldn't get you past the front door?
00:49:08Please don't waste my time.
00:49:09What do you want from me?
00:49:10That Laura!
00:49:12She tore up my invitation.
00:49:13Do you think you can get me inside?
00:49:15What, your little manager title couldn't get you past the front door?
00:49:19Please don't waste my time.
00:49:39If I can't have Brian, neither can you.
00:49:55The Duke family has more influence than you think.
00:50:00Chloe, good to see you. I've been expecting you.
00:50:03Uncle Jones, how are you?
00:50:07I need your help with something.
00:50:08What is it?
00:50:10Anything for my little Chloe.
00:50:12It's Brian.
00:50:14Who's that woman?
00:50:15I thought you were...
00:50:16She's a con woman.
00:50:18She actually used to be a cleaner in his company.
00:50:21What?
00:50:23Are you saying Brian left you for a cleaner?
00:50:27Well, she's pretending to be a Lewis to get close to him.
00:50:31What are you planning?
00:50:34I want to destroy Shepherd Group.
00:50:39Anyway, I am terribly sorry about Chloe.
00:50:43I had no idea she would be so...
00:50:48intense.
00:50:50What do you mean?
00:50:52You so should have taken her up on her offer.
00:50:54I mean, you guys are just...
00:50:57Power couple.
00:50:59I see what you're doing.
00:51:02Power couple, you say?
00:51:04More like a disaster waiting to happen.
00:51:08Anyway, shall we take a seat?
00:51:10Actually, Brian, my seat is...
00:51:15It's up there.
00:51:17Really?
00:51:19She doesn't deserve to sit there.
00:51:21Excuse me.
00:51:23This is my VIP invitation.
00:51:25I can sit wherever I like.
00:51:28Hey, what do you think you're doing?
00:51:30This is signed by all three VPs of Lewis Group.
00:51:32Where did you get this?
00:51:35Who did you have to sleep with?
00:51:37That's enough.
00:51:39This is getting us nowhere.
00:51:42Laura is my guest.
00:51:44And I will not tolerate any kind of disrespect towards her.
00:51:49Got it?
00:51:51Mr. Shepherd, what do you see in that woman?
00:51:54Miss Duke is a perfect match for you.
00:51:57She's from a good family.
00:51:59Beautiful and successful.
00:52:02What more could you ask for?
00:52:04That's a good question.
00:52:06Not much, actually.
00:52:08Honesty.
00:52:10That's what I want.
00:52:12And love.
00:52:14Things that clearly, Chloe has no idea.
00:52:17I said I was sorry.
00:52:19What more do you want?
00:52:21I've watched Chloe grow up.
00:52:22She's like a daughter to me.
00:52:25I won't allow her to be spoken to like that.
00:52:31One more chance, Brian.
00:52:33Let's forget all this nonsense.
00:52:36Do it, Mr. Shepherd.
00:52:38Propose right here, right now.
00:52:41Brian?
00:52:45Is this how the Duke family handles business deals?
00:52:48By forcing a ring on someone?
00:52:51Do it, or you can kiss goodbye all future investments with the Duke family.
00:52:58Don't you dare.
00:53:00You're humiliating yourself.
00:53:01How dare you?
00:53:02Do you really like this nobody from nowhere?
00:53:03Yes.
00:53:04I like her.
00:53:05But I can't imagine someone like her interesting in me.
00:53:06The truth is, I wouldn't be here where I am today without her.
00:53:10Why would you choose someone like her?
00:53:11I know.
00:53:12Exactly.
00:53:13This woman is trouble.
00:53:14She doesn't belong here.
00:53:15Throw her out!
00:53:16You do realize that there is no investment meeting without me.
00:53:17Interesting turn of events.
00:53:18Perhaps it's time we shed some light on your mysterious party.
00:53:19I know.
00:53:20No.
00:53:21No, no.
00:53:22No.
00:53:23No.
00:53:24No.
00:53:25No.
00:53:26No.
00:53:27No.
00:53:28No.
00:53:29No.
00:53:30No.
00:53:31No.
00:53:32No.
00:53:33No.
00:53:34No.
00:53:35No.
00:53:36No.
00:53:37No.
00:53:38No.
00:53:39No.
00:53:40No.
00:53:41No.
00:53:42No.
00:53:43No.
00:53:44No.
00:53:45Only which let's shed some light on your mysterious past.
00:53:46No.
00:53:47Do you actually think that just because you have the name Laura, that you're the missing
00:53:52heiress, Laura Lewis?
00:53:57You know what, maybe you're right, Chloe
00:53:59How ridiculous.
00:54:00Is that what you've been telling everyone?
00:54:02I'm sure that the Duke family still values cooperation, but, wow, did I underestimate your
00:54:11foolishness, Chloe?
00:54:12You have no right to talk to Miss Duke like that.
00:54:16That's enough. You don't get to talk here.
00:54:19You got mad, Shepard. You dare to go and get to Miss Duke.
00:54:22And the same applies to everyone else here.
00:54:24Anyone who insults Laura.
00:54:27Leaves with a black eye.
00:54:29He's willing to defend the chick for her.
00:54:31What kind of charm does she have?
00:54:33I want to be careful, Brian.
00:54:35Don't forget that this entire hotel chain is owned by the Lewis Group.
00:54:39Are you willing to get blacklisted for this public tantrum?
00:54:42The Lewis Group isn't blacklisting anyone, especially not Shepard Group.
00:54:52Lewis Group RS? You?
00:54:56Don't make me laugh.
00:54:58Security, remove these two impostors from the premises.
00:55:02Wait, Uncle Jones. Give Brian another chance.
00:55:05Choose, Brian.
00:55:07Me, and the future you deserve, or this...
00:55:10Fraud.
00:55:13Chloe.
00:55:14I have everything I ever wanted.
00:55:17Right here.
00:55:19And I wouldn't trade all the power that took so hard of me, but would.
00:55:23Fine.
00:55:29Short the stock of the Shepard Group.
00:55:31What?
00:55:32You forced my hand, Brian.
00:55:35Now Shepard Group is ruined.
00:55:37The Duke family, they can't be serious.
00:55:40Shepard Group is doomed.
00:55:42Brian, you don't have to do this for me.
00:55:46Laura, I will never let anyone bully you.
00:55:50Let alone them.
00:55:51Let alone them.
00:55:52Thank you, Brian.
00:55:54For...
00:55:56For believing in me.
00:55:57For...
00:55:59Protecting me.
00:56:01Now it's my turn.
00:56:03To protect you.
00:56:10Listen carefully.
00:56:11I need you to protect the Shepard Group stock.
00:56:15At all costs.
00:56:17Don't let it drop.
00:56:19Even one cent.
00:56:21Do you understand?
00:56:23Wow.
00:56:25Award winning performance, Laura.
00:56:28But you can't possibly control the stock.
00:56:31Wanna put your money where your mouth is, Chloe?
00:56:34If...
00:56:37The Shepard stock holds...
00:56:40For the next five minutes...
00:56:44You owe me a public apology.
00:56:52I do.
00:56:57Well...
00:56:59Looks like your five minutes is up.
00:57:02Let's see how the Shepard stock is stealing.
00:57:09What the?
00:57:10The Shepard Group stock prices?
00:57:12It's going up!
00:57:14This can't be happening.
00:57:15It must be a coincidence.
00:57:22Why didn't you short the stock like I asked?
00:57:25There was a huge investment.
00:57:27We couldn't compete.
00:57:28Shepard stock price is being heavily supported.
00:57:32How did you do this?
00:57:34Like I said, Chloe...
00:57:37I'm...
00:57:39Laura Lewis.
00:57:41But you're not. You're just some cleaner.
00:57:43You don't have access to billions.
00:57:45Well...
00:57:47I think it's time for my apology.
00:57:54No.
00:57:56I think it's time for my apology.
00:57:57There is no way I'm apologizing to you.
00:58:00If things were the other way, would you be so quick to forgive me?
00:58:04Chloe?
00:58:06The truth is...
00:58:08Everyone here...
00:58:10Has seen you be a bully.
00:58:12And a coward.
00:58:14And now...
00:58:16A sore loser.
00:58:18This is so humiliating for her.
00:58:21How did she manage that?
00:58:22Maybe she really is a Lewis.
00:58:25Apologize to Miss Lewis.
00:58:27Shut up.
00:58:29Don't you dare talk about Miss Duke like that.
00:58:32Don't forget...
00:58:33The Duke finally owned half of Maplewood.
00:58:35There you go, Elizabeth.
00:58:37Let's get out of here.
00:58:39Hold on.
00:58:41This...
00:58:43Is where I belong.
00:58:45And that...
00:58:47Is my chair.
00:58:49You can't go there. That is the VIP section.
00:58:52Only those invited by the Lewis Group Vice Presidents get to sit there.
00:58:56Like I said, Chloe...
00:58:59That's my seat.
00:59:00I had a rumor floating around a few days ago.
00:59:09Seems Miss Lewis caused quite a scene at a signing ceremony between her ex and Mr. Shepard, wasn't it?
00:59:18Are you planning another outburst, Laura?
00:59:20Is this how you charm all your men?
00:59:22Shall we?
00:59:24My pleasure.
00:59:26What are you doing?
00:59:28Let go.
00:59:29It doesn't matter what happens.
00:59:30I choose to stay by Laura's side.
00:59:34Let's go.
00:59:36Don't be absurd.
00:59:37That seat is reserved for a very important guest.
00:59:41Someone so esteemed, even the Vice Presidents have to bow low.
00:59:47And...
00:59:49How exactly, Mr. Jones?
00:59:53Are you so sure that I'm not that esteemed guest?
00:59:56Wait.
00:59:57That's Peter Young.
00:59:58Doctor of Business Affairs at Lewis Group.
01:00:04That's Peter Young.
01:00:05He decides which...
01:00:06Mr. Young.
01:00:07It's Chloe Duke.
01:00:08Head of Duke Industries.
01:00:10So glad you could join us.
01:00:11Why is everyone standing around?
01:00:13It's her.
01:00:14She's making a huge scene trying to claim the VIP seat.
01:00:17It's...
01:00:18It's embarrassing.
01:00:19That seat's reserved for the Lewis Group VIP guest.
01:00:22Specifically the family heir.
01:00:23Please get off the stage.
01:00:26Oh yes.
01:00:28Mr. Young.
01:00:29Was it?
01:00:30I think I remember you.
01:00:31You manage my family's investments.
01:00:35Don't pretend like you know what's going on.
01:00:39Please get off the stage.
01:00:40That seat's reserved for the Lewis family heir.
01:00:42I need to make one thing crystal clear.
01:00:50I am the heir of the Lewis family.
01:00:59This is ridiculous.
01:01:00You, the Lewis heir.
01:01:02Don't you know that Miss Lewis is a legend around here?
01:01:05You must be out of your mind trusting a complete stranger like this.
01:01:08Exactly.
01:01:09We ran a background check on her.
01:01:11And it turns out she's just some cleaner that used to work for the Harrison Group.
01:01:16Before that, a cashier in my family's supermarket.
01:01:19See Brian?
01:01:20This is who you've been chasing after.
01:01:22A liar and a cheat.
01:01:24Security.
01:01:25Get this imposter out of here.
01:01:27And everyone here is a witness.
01:01:28Why would any of you trust Laura?
01:01:32If any of you dares to harm her,
01:01:35you have to go through me first.
01:01:38Brian, she's just a nobody.
01:01:41She's just someone that the Harrison Group ditched.
01:01:44They didn't even want her.
01:01:45What exactly do you see in her?
01:01:48Escort this imposter out of here.
01:01:50Now.
01:01:51I'm Peter.
01:01:59Peter.
01:02:01Do you have any idea what you're doing?
01:02:04Mr. Yates.
01:02:05I'm so glad you could join us.
01:02:09Miss Lewis.
01:02:10Sorry about the delay.
01:02:12And for all the trouble you've had to put up with.
01:02:14It's no trouble, Mr. Yates.
01:02:17Luckily I haven't been alone.
01:02:19I've had the great company of my very loyal...
01:02:24...friend.
01:02:25Wait a minute.
01:02:26She's Miss Lewis.
01:02:27Is this a joke?
01:02:29Mr. Young.
01:02:30You're new to the Lewis Group.
01:02:32So.
01:02:33I can understand why you wouldn't recognize Miss Lewis.
01:02:36But you listened to lies without checking the facts.
01:02:40And almost called the police.
01:02:43Tell me.
01:02:45Mr. Young.
01:02:46Who put you up to this?
01:02:48Was it my uncle, Ian Lewis?
01:02:53I knew it.
01:02:56энdie Giles Şimdi
01:02:59there was a 19,000
01:03:00defining conten,
01:03:02consider that your termination.
01:03:03I get it now.
01:03:04This is an act.
01:03:05Right?
01:03:06Chloe what are you doing?
01:03:07We still want to work with the Lewis family!
01:03:08Erick with them?
01:03:09Are you blind?
01:03:10This woman is clearly having an affair with this old man.
01:03:12That's enough young lady.
01:03:16to disrespect the head of the Lewis group.
01:03:19Oh, Chloe, I can't believe we're going through this again.
01:03:23I think you need some professional help.
01:03:27Maybe I could make you an appointment with a great psychiatrist.
01:03:29Chloe, that's enough.
01:03:31It's ridiculous.
01:03:32If you were really the Lewis family heir, you would have the ring.
01:03:35So why don't you show it to everyone?
01:03:37Show us the ring!
01:03:42Why don't you show that to everyone?
01:03:44Show us the ring!
01:03:46Show us the ring!
01:03:47Who are you to make demands of me?
01:03:50I don't answer to anyone but myself.
01:03:54I don't need any of your validation.
01:04:00There's a ring.
01:04:05Vice Presidents, I'm Chloe Duke of the Duke family.
01:04:09This woman is an imposter.
01:04:11Miss Lewis, we apologise for the delay.
01:04:14How could you just let that con woman sit there?
01:04:17Get her out of here!
01:04:18This seat was always for Ms. Lewis.
01:04:22She's the special guest we've been waiting for.
01:04:25The investment queen.
01:04:27The real heir to Lewis Group.
01:04:30Laura Lewis.
01:04:31She was a divorced host wife.
01:04:33A janitor.
01:04:34How can she?
01:04:35She can't be.
01:04:36It's a lie.
01:04:36I'm telling you.
01:04:37It's a lie.
01:04:38Do you think we'd lie?
01:04:40We run Lewis Group.
01:04:42Oh, Chloe.
01:04:43You assaulted me earlier.
01:04:47And you came to this meeting to what?
01:04:50Sabotage it.
01:04:52You'll be hearing from our legal team.
01:04:54Is this true, Mr. Duke?
01:04:59Did you try and sabotage this meeting?
01:05:03Yes.
01:05:04It's all true.
01:05:05She fooled us all.
01:05:06The Duke tricked us to keep Lewis Group out of Maplewood and control everything themselves.
01:05:12I had no idea.
01:05:14But I'm on your side.
01:05:16I can give you everything you need.
01:05:18All the resources in Maplewood.
01:05:20Miss Lewis, how would you like us to deal with this?
01:05:25An eye for an eye.
01:05:29Since Miss Duke here loves ruining things, I'll target her precious Duke Industries.
01:05:41I want them bankrupt in ten minutes.
01:05:44You're bluffing.
01:05:45You're nobody.
01:05:47You'll always be a nobody.
01:05:48And you can't touch me.
01:05:49Then consider this a test, Chloe.
01:05:54I didn't need my family's support with Shepard and I certainly don't need it now.
01:05:59Chloe, you dug your own grave.
01:06:02You think you can destroy Maplewood's leading family with just the Shepard group?
01:06:07Please.
01:06:09Hmm.
01:06:10We'll see.
01:06:16Dad?
01:06:17Well, slow down.
01:06:19What are you talking about?
01:06:22No.
01:06:24It's impossible.
01:06:26Chloe, what have you done?
01:06:28Years of hard work.
01:06:29Destroyed in minutes.
01:06:30Well, Chloe, isn't this what you wanted?
01:06:42To give me a little taste of destruction?
01:06:44This is impossible.
01:06:47It's impossible.
01:06:48Chloe, what have you done?
01:06:50The news is everywhere.
01:06:53Shepard's launched a full-scale assault on the stock market.
01:06:56They're hammering our shares.
01:06:57Are you sure it's just Shepard's?
01:07:00Yes.
01:07:01Shareholders are dumping our stock like it's a hot potato.
01:07:05We could go bankrupt.
01:07:07You've ruined everything.
01:07:08Don't worry, Mr. Duke.
01:07:10When your company does go bankrupt, I'll buy it.
01:07:14At a fire sale price.
01:07:16Your employees won't even be affected.
01:07:17Brilliant.
01:07:18A master's job, Miss Lewis.
01:07:21Now, this is my event.
01:07:26Please leave.
01:07:27Brian, I did this for us.
01:07:30Everything I did, I did for us, Brian.
01:07:31Chloe, you need help.
01:07:37These feelings you have for me, it's not love.
01:07:42It's obsession.
01:07:44Enough.
01:07:45If you don't want to ruin everything completely, you'll come with me.
01:07:48Right now.
01:07:50Right now.
01:07:52This isn't Arma!
01:08:03Get out of me!
01:08:05What is this?
01:08:06What?
01:08:07You hear me?
01:08:09What is going on here?
01:08:11Did they finally expose Laura's lies?
01:08:14Shepard Group.
01:08:15They're the new partner that's partnering up with Lewis Group for Maplewood.
01:08:19They're handling all future construction projects.
01:08:21That can't be.
01:08:23What about us?
01:08:24That was our project.
01:08:25Remember, Laura teamed up with Brian.
01:08:27Harrison Group is practically out.
01:08:29We have no chance.
01:08:30We can't give up that easily.
01:08:33Remember, Ian Lewis himself appointed me as general manager.
01:08:37In a few days, he promised that he would let us meet with a new heir.
01:08:40You're right.
01:08:41If we can just meet with a new heir, we can bypass the Shepards and meet directly with the Lewis Group.
01:08:46We just have to play their little game and see who comes out on top.
01:08:51That's right.
01:08:55Vice Presidents, allow me to introduce my associate, Brian Shepard.
01:09:01I'm sure I've met you.
01:09:03Mr. Shepard, it's finally a pleasure to meet you.
01:09:06We've looked into your company's financial review.
01:09:10Very impressive.
01:09:12Thank you, but a large part of that success is thanks to Ms. Lewis.
01:09:17No.
01:09:18She practically saved me from disaster three times over now.
01:09:22Brian, you can just call me Laura.
01:09:25Ms. Lewis' recommendation is very telling, Mr. Shepard.
01:09:30Perhaps today clarifies everything.
01:09:32Mr. Shepard, this opportunity is gone.
01:09:37Seize it.
01:09:38A woman like Laura is not easy to buy.
01:09:42Thank you for your kind words, Mr. Vice President.
01:09:44Did Laura send you to kill me?
01:09:54Laura?
01:09:55Hardly.
01:09:57I'm Ian Lewis, CEO and rightful heir of the Lewis Group.
01:10:03So you're Laura's uncle?
01:10:05In the flesh.
01:10:08So Laura really is your niece?
01:10:10Yes, little Laura.
01:10:12She just threw away her birthright about two, three years ago.
01:10:17Ran off and married a nobody from Maplewood.
01:10:20I think he was a Harrison.
01:10:21Now Laura's got the VPs and Mr. Yates on her side.
01:10:25Did you hear she's throwing a banquet in a few days to announce her official takeover?
01:10:29And we can't let that happen, can we, my dear?
01:10:32If you're Ian Lewis, wouldn't you have the family ring?
01:10:35Well, my dear, that's where you come in, Miss Duke.
01:10:38We need you to relinquish my ring.
01:10:43What if I, what if I fail?
01:10:45My family is already ruined.
01:10:47Yes, you are in a spot of bother, I must say.
01:10:50But, if successful, I guarantee that you and the Duke family will get back everything you've lost.
01:10:58Laura's got the VPs and Brian on her side.
01:11:00How can I possibly get the ring?
01:11:02There is a way, you know, that we can make Laura relinquish and give up that ring willingly.
01:11:11Laura, my dear, welcome.
01:11:14Uncle Ian, it's so good to see you.
01:11:21Laura.
01:11:22It's so good to see you.
01:11:23And you, it's been too long, two, three years perhaps.
01:11:28How have you been?
01:11:29I've been well, Uncle Ian.
01:11:32Thank you for asking.
01:11:34I see you've been busy keeping Lewis' group afloat.
01:11:38Yes.
01:11:38Could have been easy.
01:11:39Indeed, somebody had to.
01:11:41I mean, after you left me with everything to do, without a safe pair of hands, I hate to think it would have happened to the company.
01:11:48Actually, Uncle Ian, from what I've heard, you've lost billions with some questionable investment decisions.
01:11:57Yes.
01:11:58Minor mistakes.
01:11:59Minor.
01:12:00Don't worry, Uncle Ian.
01:12:02I won't hold it against you.
01:12:03Oh, good.
01:12:05Well, cheers to you coming back here.
01:12:08And the Lewis' group.
01:12:12Oh!
01:12:13I'm so sorry, Laura.
01:12:15How clumsy of me.
01:12:17Uh, no, no worries, Uncle Ian.
01:12:19I'll just go to the restroom and get cleaned up.
01:12:23Of course.
01:12:25Right away, just down to the left.
01:12:33Use it wisely.
01:12:35Oh, I will.
01:12:38Hey, Laura.
01:12:52How's that?
01:12:53Hello, Brian.
01:12:54Your little girlfriend is with me now.
01:12:56Chloe.
01:12:57How in the hell did you get Laura's phone?
01:13:01Let's just say that I have my ways.
01:13:04Listen, Chloe.
01:13:04Don't hurt her.
01:13:07Please.
01:13:09I'll do anything.
01:13:12Come to the abandoned warehouse in the eastern suburbs.
01:13:15Now.
01:13:17Don't tell anyone.
01:13:18If you want her alive.
01:13:22Well, you certainly do have your ways.
01:13:25Oh, thank goodness you've cleared up.
01:13:30I am sorry.
01:13:31How clumsy.
01:13:32And don't forget your phone.
01:13:33I retrieved it for you.
01:13:35Oh, Laura.
01:13:36Lovely to see you again.
01:13:38Yeah.
01:13:38I guess I'll see you the day after tomorrow at the banquet.
01:13:42At the banquet.
01:13:45I'll see you then.
01:13:46Will do.
01:13:46Looking forward to it.
01:13:50Laura!
01:13:51Laura!
01:13:51Laura!
01:13:52Where are you?
01:13:53Laura!
01:13:55Laura!
01:13:56Where are you?
01:13:58Laura!
01:14:00Laura, where are you?
01:14:01Laura!
01:14:06I got you.
01:14:09You weren't expecting that, were you?
01:14:11Finally.
01:14:23Looks like your little boyfriend got turned around.
01:14:26What the?
01:14:27Laura, where are you?
01:14:28Laura?
01:14:28Laura?
01:14:29Go shut your mouth.
01:14:31Chloe.
01:14:33What have you done?
01:14:34Are you out of your mind?
01:14:35Out of my mind?
01:14:36You were the one that left me for that tramp and destroyed my life.
01:14:40That's not true.
01:14:42You were the one who messed up.
01:14:43Brian!
01:14:44Laura!
01:14:47Stay where you are.
01:14:49You better not come alone.
01:14:51Shut this knife, Chloe.
01:14:53This is insane.
01:14:55Insane?
01:14:56I did this for us, Brian.
01:14:58We were meant to be together.
01:15:01Us?
01:15:02You've gone crazy.
01:15:04And you're out of here.
01:15:04Chloe, kidnapping is a very serious event.
01:15:09They're going to lock you up for years.
01:15:12You think I care about jail time?
01:15:15All I care about is tearing you to a party.
01:15:17You don't deserve him.
01:15:19What you've done?
01:15:21You've destroyed my life.
01:15:24My company, everything.
01:15:26Now I'm going to destroy your life.
01:15:29Give me your family ring now.
01:15:32Give it to me!
01:15:33This is about the ring.
01:15:34Did my Uncle Ian put you up to this?
01:15:39You know, Chloe,
01:15:40trying to kill me,
01:15:43that's foolish.
01:15:45Because who do you think is going to win?
01:15:48You?
01:15:50That will matter.
01:15:51Or...
01:15:51me?
01:15:53Something a little bit more persuasive.
01:15:56Freeze!
01:16:03Freeze!
01:16:05Don't move, anyone.
01:16:08Don't move.
01:16:11You're about to be arrested for kidnapping.
01:16:14Miss Lewis?
01:16:15Having fun without me?
01:16:17I'm hurt.
01:16:18Are you hurt?
01:16:22No, I'm okay.
01:16:26Tell me, Chloe.
01:16:28Who put you up to this, Chloe?
01:16:31Why should I tell you?
01:16:33You're going to kill me anyway.
01:16:35Chloe, I don't have a problem with you.
01:16:38But if you don't talk,
01:16:40your beloved Duke Industries might run into some.
01:16:45Well, I'm recording everything, Miss Lewis.
01:16:48So the choice is yours, Chloe.
01:16:51Talk, or face the consequences.
01:16:54Fine. It was Ian Lewis.
01:16:56He said he'd help Duke Industries
01:16:58if I kept you away from the bank room today.
01:17:02Did you get all of that, Mr. Yates?
01:17:04I'm recording everything, Miss Lewis.
01:17:09Oh, every word, Miss Lewis.
01:17:12Are you ready to play a game, Brian?
01:17:14Go.
01:17:18This is crazy.
01:17:26Are we really sure we can do this?
01:17:27All these big companies here, it's crazy.
01:17:30Absolutely.
01:17:31The Lewis Group is under new leadership.
01:17:33We can talk to the heiress herself.
01:17:35Exactly.
01:17:36We just need to make sure we make a good impression on the new heir.
01:17:39There's Ian Lewis now.
01:17:42You can introduce ourselves.
01:17:43Let's go.
01:17:43Yeah.
01:17:46Hello, Ian Lewis.
01:17:47I'm Amber Smith.
01:17:48We spoke on the phone the other day.
01:17:50This is Ben Harrison from Harrison Group.
01:17:52How do you do?
01:17:53We're the company that...
01:17:54Yes, I know who you are.
01:17:56Miss Smith, you're the one who exposed Laura's little drama.
01:18:00Now, look, I'm not here for idle chatter.
01:18:06Good evening, ladies and gentlemen.
01:18:08Could I ask you all to be seated, please?
01:18:12The moment you've all been waiting for.
01:18:14Tonight marks a new chapter in the life of the Lewis Group.
01:18:19A night where the rightful heir takes their place.
01:18:22Would you please join me in welcoming the heir to the Lewis Group,
01:18:26Miss Laura Lewis.
01:18:28Look, everybody, attention.
01:18:30Attention, please.
01:18:33There's been a recent development of some tragedy.
01:18:38I just got noticed from a phone call a couple of minutes ago
01:18:41that Laura has been in a car accident.
01:18:45And, tragically, she hasn't made it.
01:18:48She has not survived.
01:18:53What?
01:18:53Laura Lewis is dead?
01:18:56It doesn't matter now.
01:18:57She's gone.
01:18:58Mr. Lewis, is this new...
01:19:00A tragic turn of events, Mr. Yates.
01:19:02But rest assured, the Lewis Group will continue
01:19:05under my competent leadership.
01:19:09Hold on.
01:19:10Who said that I'm dead?
01:19:11Laura?
01:19:18I don't understand.
01:19:20What's happening?
01:19:22Laura?
01:19:23But weren't you...
01:19:25My apologies for the delay, everyone.
01:19:28There seems to be some...
01:19:30misunderstanding.
01:19:32Laura, what are you doing here?
01:19:33You've got to stop this.
01:19:34If you upset the Lewis family anymore, we're all doomed.
01:19:37I'll save this once.
01:19:38Back off, then.
01:19:39Thank you for coming, everyone.
01:19:46As I'm sure you know, tonight, I officially reclaim my title as the CEO of Lewis Group.
01:19:59Perhaps you could make some room for me, Uncle Ian.
01:20:03Impossible.
01:20:04How are you still alive?
01:20:06Well, clearly I am alive and well, so why don't we get this started?
01:20:10No.
01:20:11You're not the rightful heir.
01:20:13You gave that away when you married Ben Harrison.
01:20:17Uncle Ian, is that seriously your argument that you have, that I got married too quickly?
01:20:23Well, you went off to Maplewood three years ago and married a stranger and left me to work tirelessly, keeping the company together.
01:20:31Uncle Ian, retire.
01:20:33Enjoy your retirement.
01:20:35Lewis Group will be perfectly fine without you.
01:20:39No.
01:20:40There can only be one heir, and that's me, and the rightful heir has possession of this.
01:20:48You think a ring makes an heir.
01:20:51You're even more foolish than I could have ever imagined.
01:20:54Give that back to me.
01:20:56This?
01:20:57Yes.
01:20:58You think some shiny gold thing makes you the heir?
01:21:02Give it back.
01:21:03True leadership is about earning the respect of those around you, not some stupid ring.
01:21:12Oh, my ring!
01:21:14Look at that, where is it?
01:21:18My ring!
01:21:19Oh!
01:21:20Now, everyone, if I could have your attention.
01:21:23How dare you!
01:21:24Now, let me show you how a true heir earns a ring like that.
01:21:32Talk.
01:21:34Fine.
01:21:35It was Ian Lewis.
01:21:37He said he'd help drinking the streets if I kept you away from the bankers today.
01:21:42Oh, quite the spectacle, Miss Lewis.
01:21:47Security, escort him out.
01:21:50And Ian, don't fall over.
01:21:52It's all lies!
01:21:53It's all lies!
01:21:54Fakery!
01:21:55It's fake news!
01:21:56The proof is clear!
01:21:57Get him out of here!
01:21:58Now!
01:22:02I owe all of you an apology for everything that's happened tonight.
01:22:07Turns out, reclaiming my birthright didn't go as smoothly as I had hoped.
01:22:12Luckily, these past few days, I've had Mr. Shepherd by my side.
01:22:20And he has been a great support.
01:22:24Lewis Group has a lot of exciting plans for Maplewood.
01:22:29I'm proud to announce that we have secured a reliable partner.
01:22:38Shepherd Group.
01:22:39What?
01:22:40Laura, hold on.
01:22:41This was never my idea.
01:22:43This was all Cathy and Amber's fault.
01:22:45I don't want a divorce.
01:22:46What?
01:22:47Then what are you saying?
01:22:48You came to me first.
01:22:50Classic Ben.
01:22:51Something goes wrong and you start pointing the fingers at all the women in your life.
01:22:56Just don't shut Harrison Group out.
01:22:58Just give me another chance.
01:23:00How could I shut you out?
01:23:02I'm just a cleaner, remember?
01:23:04I'm just a useless housewife.
01:23:06I don't have that power.
01:23:10What are you talking about?
01:23:11What?
01:23:12No, come on.
01:23:13Sorry.
01:23:14No, please.
01:23:15No.
01:23:16Um, Mr. Shepherd?
01:23:17Yes, Miss Lewis?
01:23:19I was wondering if maybe you wanted to grab dinner sometime.
01:23:27On me.
01:23:29Miss Lewis.
01:23:30Miss Lewis.
01:23:33I would love to.
