00:16where else would i go
00:22i don't want anything from you it's not like i can expect anything nice from an orphan such
00:28as yourself grandma stephen is a decent and honorable man i don't think so why your grandfather
00:36gave his blessings to your marriage i'll never understand no one in the family likes him i'm
00:43just the only one brave enough to say so it's enough it's okay carrie really you see he knows
00:49his place don't you i had such high hopes for you carrie such high hopes
00:59you know what would make a nice present stephen what's that you could divorce carrie and let her
01:08marry cullen henderson like i wanted her to so many years ago now that would be a nice present
01:18now pass me a present and it better be expensive
01:25i grew up as an orphan and poor but i was about to discover i had more money than god
01:32how incredibly rude no shock there the orphan boy has no manners sorry i'll just be a minute
01:41um hello is this stephen it is this is the hospital miss jane asked us to call you miss
01:48jane was my caretaker at the orphanage the only person in the world who was kind to me
01:54and she isn't doing as well as we'd hoped it looks like she will have to have the surgery
02:00okay yes of course what's wrong it's miss jane her kidneys have gotten worse and she needs surgery
02:10oh no steven i'm so sorry i thought the doctor said the dialysis would work
02:14and apparently things are worse than they thought with surgery so expensive you know
02:21if you need the money you can always ask grandma i'm sure she would let it to us
02:25surgery is going to cost a quarter of a million dollars i doubt she'll end us that much
02:30she hates me carrie no she doesn't okay fine she does
02:38but again hard to ask maybe she hears about it she won't understand
02:46i'll ask her no i should be the one to do it

06:50write the address down for you but i was just told a few hours ago that she was to have surgery not
06:54that she was being moved i'm trying to come up with 250 000 on my own actually it says that her
07:01condition got worse and her surgery will now cost almost three million dollars three million
07:10yes
07:14but it says here that the bill has already been paid in full what i don't have three million
07:21dollars there's no way the benefactor who paid her medical expenses is the one who had her moved

13:24family while also learning more about the family business however while going through some files i
13:33found a sterling group partner that looked familiar the hopkins group also known as my wife carrie's
