Short filmTranscript
00:00:00Boss, you can't just keep running away.
00:00:10Your mom insists you meet Ms. Baumann.
00:00:12Max, love is not some business deal.
00:00:15You cannot just sign a contract calling marriage.
00:00:34Good.
00:00:37It's done.
00:00:38Your brother is gone.
00:00:42Good.
00:00:43I'm the only one left.
00:00:45The Hopewell Empire is mine now.
00:00:51Leon, I have a question.
00:00:53But you gotta be honest with me.
00:00:54Who is that girl that my mom chose for Vincent to marry?
00:00:58Mrs. Baumann.
00:01:00Jennifer Baumann.
00:01:01Jennifer Baumann.
00:01:04So since Vincent's gone, I will marry her.
00:01:08Wait, you want to marry her?
00:01:11Look, man.
00:01:12A marriage will lock everything down.
00:01:15His company, his fortune, everything will belong to me now.
00:01:21Understood, boss.
00:01:23Let me handle it.
00:01:29Now everything that belonged to him is gonna be mine.
00:01:40Come on, Jenny.
00:01:47Ken Hopewell is a really rich man.
00:01:49If you marry him, you won't have to work in that cheap salon anymore.
00:01:53I love my job, mom.
00:01:55I'm proud of being a hairdresser, okay?
00:01:58Come on, be realistic, Jenny.
00:02:00Do you know how hard I've worked?
00:02:04Do you know how hard I've worked to set this up for you to marry into a rich family?
00:02:10First you want me to marry Vincent, and he's dead.
00:02:14And now you're pushing me to marry his creep brother?
00:02:17I'm not some pawn in your little game, okay?
00:02:19I would prefer to marry a nice homeless than those jerk riches.
00:02:31Give me the money!
00:02:35Give me the...
00:02:36Fuck you.
00:02:37Go away from me.
00:02:41I remember you.
00:02:42You are the hero who thinks you can save this girl.
00:02:46You should mind your own fucking business.
00:02:53Anyway, you don't suit her.
00:02:55You are smelly and dirty.
00:03:11Losing Vincent was a tragedy.
00:03:14But the company needs a leadership.
00:03:18And I'm asking you, Max, to appoint me as the new CEO.
00:03:23That's not happening, Ken.
00:03:25Vincent is still alive.
00:03:27How come he's still alive?
00:03:28He died in a car explosion.
00:03:30He wore a necklace with a biosensor.
00:03:32Every time it's damaged, it sends a distress signal.
00:03:35That time it wasn't triggered.
00:03:37So that means he is alive.
00:03:46His eyes, they are so beautiful.
00:03:49Are you okay?
00:03:50Yeah.
00:03:51Thank you for saving me.
00:03:53What's your name?
00:03:54I don't know.
00:03:55I can't remember anything.
00:03:58Okay, never mind.
00:03:59Let's go.
00:04:08What the hell, Jenny?
00:04:10Why have you brought a bum home?
00:04:12He saved my life, mom, okay?
00:04:14Calm down.
00:04:17He reeks.
00:04:20I'll give him a bath.
00:04:22He's not using a bathtub.
00:04:24He better be gone before dark.
00:04:30Since I don't remember your name,
00:04:33maybe I could call you Johnny.
00:04:36Johnny?
00:04:38I like it.
00:04:40Alright, Johnny.
00:04:45Hold.
00:04:46Still.
00:04:47Johnny.
00:04:48It's okay.
00:04:49I promise.
00:04:51Close your eyes.
00:04:53Yes.
00:04:54It's almost there, okay?
00:04:59Done?
00:05:02Wow, you're so handsome.
00:05:04So freaking hot.
00:05:12Mom!
00:05:13Our guest cooked a dinner for us.
00:05:15That bub is still here
00:05:17and you let him use my kitchen?
00:05:19Dinner's ready.
00:05:23He looks completely different.
00:05:25I know.
00:05:26Doesn't he look amusing?
00:05:29Wait a minute.
00:05:30Is he wearing your father's clothes?
00:05:33That has been good for so many years.
00:05:35Let him wear it.
00:05:36Let's eat first, okay?
00:05:43Pretentious.
00:05:57It's delicious.
00:06:01Not bad.
00:06:04Jenny.
00:06:06Look at this.
00:06:08Mrs Wilson gave me a discount.
00:06:10It's a Hope World designer watch.
00:06:13Wow, it's so beautiful.
00:06:15It's fake.
00:06:22How dare you say that?
00:06:24Mrs Wilson's been my friend for years.
00:06:26She'll never sell me a fake watch.
00:06:28Every real Hope World watch has an H in the centre.
00:06:31This one doesn't have it.
00:06:33What would you know about Hope World watches?
00:06:35You're just a bum.
00:06:37Can I check?
00:06:41Wait.
00:06:44He's right.
00:06:46It's fake.
00:06:47Mom, your watch is fake.
00:06:54I'll talk to Mrs Wilson.
00:06:56And you, after dinner, get out of my house.
00:07:05You're not going anywhere, okay?
00:07:07Have a nice day.
00:07:09You may walk.
00:07:21Jenny, thanks for letting us stay.
00:07:23Thanks for letting us stay.
00:07:26It's okay.
00:07:28You saved my life, remember?
00:07:32It's not so cold.
00:07:34You can come here, we can share the bed.
00:07:39I'm fine.
00:07:42Actually, I'm cold.
00:07:44Can you come here?
00:07:53Join me.
00:08:23A few hours later...
00:08:53A few hours later...
00:09:24A few hours later...
00:09:26A few hours later...
00:09:52Waking up next to you feels so good.
00:09:55I'm Jenny.
00:09:57This past month has been the best month of my life.
00:10:10Mom!
00:10:12How many times do I have to tell you to knock the door?
00:10:15Get dressed.
00:10:16We have a situation.
00:10:25I've just come off the phone with Mr Ken.
00:10:28If you marry him, he'll transfer $2 million worth of Hopewell stock to us.
00:10:34Wait, are you really trying to sell me for money?
00:10:38It's $2 million!
00:10:40We'll be set for life!
00:10:43Can you help me?
00:10:45Why does this man sound familiar?
00:10:47Mom, I'm with Johnny now.
00:10:49I will not get married with that jerk just because of your selfish deal.
00:10:54A few hours later...
00:10:59Let's go.
00:11:10Johnny?
00:11:12Do you want to marry me?
00:11:14A few hours later...
00:11:20Me?
00:11:21Yes.
00:11:22Marry you?
00:11:23But I'm just a homeless guy.
00:11:24I don't care, Johnny.
00:11:26You are sweet and kind.
00:11:28Way better than this jerk, Ken.
00:11:31Johnny, I swear.
00:11:33If you marry me, you'll never need to live in the streets again.
00:11:37And I will care for you.
00:11:41Johnny!
00:11:44I don't want to offend you!
00:11:51Jenny?
00:11:54Will you marry me?
00:11:56Of course I will.
00:11:59When I get rich, I will buy you the biggest rock and the most amazing house.
00:12:04And if I get rich first, I will do the same.
00:12:14A few hours later...
00:12:19Jenny!
00:12:20This is Mr. Hopewell's associate, Leon.
00:12:22He's come to see you.
00:12:24Wait.
00:12:25You? You're still alive?
00:12:27You know him, Johnny?
00:12:28No.
00:12:29He's just a bum, Jenny.
00:12:30How would he know Mr. Leon?
00:12:32Vincent is dead.
00:12:34There is no way that's him.
00:12:36Go and tell your boss that I'm not getting married.
00:12:40I'm marrying Johnny.
00:12:41You're going to marry this bum?
00:12:43Are you crazy?
00:12:48Here's a million dollars.
00:12:51Take it.
00:12:53Leave her.
00:12:54Walk away.
00:13:05I'm sorry, Jenny.
00:13:06Finally! A sensible choice.
00:13:10Forget the money.
00:13:11All that cares is about Jenny.
00:13:17So we are living in the streets again?
00:13:19Let's go. We are leaving here.
00:13:20We are out of this.
00:13:33I think the drive is lost.
00:13:36Okay, I'll try to get him, okay?
00:13:38You stay here.
00:13:39Sorry.
00:13:42Hey, you fucking loser.
00:13:44How dare you punch me?
00:13:50Don't even think about running.
00:13:53You're coming with me.
00:13:56You fucking ass.
00:13:58Walk.
00:14:14Walk.
00:14:20Walk.
00:14:23You're a freaking nobody.
00:14:25And nobody would give a shit if you disappear.
00:14:32You got lucky.
00:14:35If you want your girl to stay safe, you stay the fuck away from her.
00:14:39Understood?
00:14:43I can never see Jenny again.
00:14:50It's been a month.
00:14:53Still nothing.
00:14:55He probably didn't want to drag you down with him.
00:15:00You know, you wouldn't have had a future with him.
00:15:04Jenny, I've got something important to tell you.
00:15:08I've been diagnosed with pancreatic cancer.
00:15:12What? Cancer?
00:15:15Why you never told me that?
00:15:16I didn't want to worry you.
00:15:19It's still in the early stages, but...
00:15:22The treatment...
00:15:24It's going to cost a lot of money.
00:15:28It's okay.
00:15:30I'm an American helper.
00:15:33Good girl.
00:15:37I'm sorry you have to do this.
00:15:39It's okay.
00:15:41I'm sorry I had to lie to you.
00:15:44But it's for your own good.
00:16:05Hey, wake up.
00:16:09I remember you.
00:16:10You are the hero who thought you could save the girl.
00:16:14Next time, you should mind your own fucking business.
00:16:23Hey, what the hell?
00:16:27Never mind.
00:16:28I will sell you.
00:16:30The distress signal.
00:16:32I've got your location.
00:16:34I'm on my way, boss.
00:16:44Boss!
00:16:46Are you okay?
00:16:48Max?
00:16:49Yeah, it's me.
00:16:51What's wrong with you?
00:16:53I don't know.
00:16:55I don't know what's wrong with me.
00:16:57Max?
00:16:58Yeah, it's me.
00:16:59I was looking for you everywhere.
00:17:01Why didn't you reach out to me?
00:17:03I forgot my memory after the explosion.
00:17:05But it's coming back.
00:17:08Jenny!
00:17:09I need to find her.
00:17:10Who's Jenny?
00:17:11Jennifer Bowell.
00:17:12The girl I was supposed to marry.
00:17:15It all makes sense.
00:17:17Hold on, let me get you cleaned up first.
00:17:21No.
00:17:22It's perfect.
00:17:23You look like a beggar.
00:17:25Exactly.
00:17:26I need you to do something for me.
00:17:42So you were gonna leave me for a beggar, huh?
00:17:46But don't worry, babe.
00:17:47I will pay for your mother's treatment once we get married.
00:17:52And today, you're mine.
00:17:54I don't know.
00:17:56If any of you have reason to object to this union, speak now.
00:18:02I object!
00:18:04Johnny!
00:18:05What the fuck?
00:18:06Do not take her from me.
00:18:11You know who I am, Mr. Hopewell?
00:18:13Yeah, I know well who you are.
00:18:15You're that bum she ran off with Johnny, right?
00:18:17That's right.
00:18:19I knew, I thought you took care of him.
00:18:21Boss, I did.
00:18:23This disguise is perfect.
00:18:25Even my brother doesn't recognize me.
00:18:29Come on, let's go.
00:18:31My mom.
00:18:33She needs a treatment.
00:18:35She has a cancer.
00:18:37What cancer?
00:18:38Yeah, that's true.
00:18:40Her mom's treatment depends on my money.
00:18:44I will take care of her mom's treatment.
00:18:46Don't worry.
00:18:48You?
00:18:49With what money?
00:18:51Tell me.
00:18:52With what money?
00:18:53You're just a bum.
00:18:54I'm not just a bum.
00:18:57Jenny.
00:18:58Now I remember who I really am.
00:19:01Who you are?
00:19:02My name is...
00:19:06Wait.
00:19:07I can tell her the truth now.
00:19:09It won't put her in danger.
00:19:11Believe it or not, Jenny.
00:19:13My real name is John.
00:19:14Johnny Smith.
00:19:16Johnny.
00:19:17You two are disgusting.
00:19:20Mr. Hopewell.
00:19:21Did you promise to Jenny to give two million dollars of Hopewell stocks?
00:19:25Is that a bluff?
00:19:26You actually don't have any.
00:19:28I'm the sole heir to the Hopewell empire.
00:19:31Of course I have.
00:19:33Then prove it.
00:19:34Leon, transfer the shares.
00:19:37Boss, it's not working.
00:19:41The transaction is getting rejected.
00:19:43What?
00:19:45That's impossible.
00:19:47Are you really the sole heir?
00:19:49Or you're just a fraud?
00:19:51That's impossible.
00:19:52Check again.
00:19:54Boss, impossible.
00:19:56What?
00:19:57What is impossible?
00:19:58Your share.
00:19:59They're all being bought.
00:20:00Every single one.
00:20:01By Vincent.
00:20:03My...
00:20:04My brother?
00:20:05That's impossible.
00:20:06He died in a car explosion.
00:20:08What if I told I'll work for him?
00:20:10He'll give me access to his funds
00:20:12and I'll use it to buy all your shares.
00:20:14You're lying.
00:20:16You're lying.
00:20:18You're lying.
00:20:19You're lying.
00:20:21Fine.
00:20:22Let's make it simple.
00:20:23Jenny,
00:20:24check your bank account.
00:20:29Oh my god.
00:20:30I have a transfer from
00:20:31Vincent Hopewell.
00:20:34Two billion dollars.
00:20:35Johnny,
00:20:37are you really working with me?
00:20:39So tell me.
00:20:40Let's say you're honest
00:20:42and you're working with me.
00:20:44Where the hell is my brother?
00:20:50So,
00:20:51let's say you're honest
00:20:54and you're working for my brother.
00:20:56So where the hell is he?
00:20:58That explosion was an accident.
00:21:00Someone tried to kill him.
00:21:02It's not safe for Vincent
00:21:03to show his face yet.
00:21:05So,
00:21:06okay, wait.
00:21:08If you tell me where is he,
00:21:09I could've protect him.
00:21:10He's my brother.
00:21:12Protect him?
00:21:14You're the jealous brother
00:21:15who want to take his place
00:21:16in the company.
00:21:17You're the jealous brother
00:21:18who want to take his place
00:21:19as CEO.
00:21:21Why the hell Vincent
00:21:22would trust you?
00:21:24How dare you?
00:21:25I will sue you
00:21:26for a defamation.
00:21:27Vincent also told me
00:21:29to keep you away from his plans.
00:21:31By the way,
00:21:32he bought this avenue
00:21:33and you're not allowed
00:21:34to set a foot in here.
00:21:36Security,
00:21:37escort them out.
00:21:40You two must know
00:21:41this isn't over.
00:21:48You don't have to marry
00:21:49this bastard anymore.
00:21:51Oh, Jenny,

00:21:53what this means to me.
00:21:58Jenny,

00:22:00a lot.
00:22:02He saved my life.
00:22:04Jenny,

00:22:08I'm Vincent Hopewell.
00:22:10You're who?
00:22:12I like to protect you.
00:22:14If my brother find out
00:22:15I'm alive,
00:22:16both of us would be in danger.
00:22:18You're Vincent Hopewell,

00:23:14I do.
00:23:15You may now exchange the rings.
00:23:18By the power vested in me,
00:23:20I now pronounce you
00:23:21husband and wife.
00:23:46The End
00:23:59Wow.
00:24:02We stay here in Leylo
00:24:03for a while.
00:24:05Wait, seriously?
00:24:06This is your Leylo place?
00:24:10It's enormous.
00:24:11This?
00:24:12Not even close
00:24:13to the biggest one.
00:24:16Wow.
00:24:19How many matches do you have?
00:24:22I can't remember.
00:24:24But the important thing
00:24:25is this one is safe.
00:24:27Can you give me some then?
00:24:31By default,
00:24:32you already have half.
00:24:34You're right.
00:24:36Johnny!
00:24:38What happened?
00:24:39I don't know.
00:24:40He just pissed it off.
00:24:42What happened?
00:24:43I don't know.
00:24:44He just pissed it off.
00:24:45Johnny!
00:24:46I'll call a doctor.
00:24:47Johnny!
00:25:00What did the doctor say
00:25:01about Johnny?
00:25:02I mean,
00:25:03Vincent?
00:25:05He is still weak.
00:25:06The explosion caused
00:25:07some serious trauma
00:25:08to his brain.
00:25:11Oh my God.
00:25:12Is he gonna be okay?
00:25:14With hopeful medical resources,
00:25:15yeah, absolutely.
00:25:16He'll be fine.
00:25:18But he just needs some rest.
00:25:22Okay, baby.
00:25:24I'll make sure of it.
00:25:39Johnny?
00:25:42Johnny?
00:25:47Oh,
00:25:48you're awake.
00:25:50I didn't want to wake you up.
00:25:51I thought to make you some breakfast.
00:25:53Oh, you're so sweet.
00:25:55But you should be resting, baby.
00:25:57My rest is cooking for you.
00:25:59Try it.
00:26:00Okay.
00:26:03Oh,
00:26:04it's amazing.
00:26:06You know what?
00:26:08Maybe you could teach me
00:26:09how to cook.
00:26:11What do you want to make?
00:26:13Pie?
00:26:15Or maybe it's too cliché.
00:26:17No cliché.
00:26:18Let's make a pie.
00:26:19Okay.
00:26:20Let's make one.
00:26:31Oh my God.
00:26:32It's not as easy as it looks.
00:26:34Don't tease me, Captain.
00:26:36I'm trying.
00:26:37You need some help.
00:26:42The dough should be firm,
00:26:44but smooth.
00:26:45Not sticky.
00:26:53The secret is patience.
00:26:54Let me show you.
00:26:57Even pressure.
00:27:01Johnny.
00:27:11Oh my God.
00:27:41Wow.
00:27:55Voila.
00:27:57Your first pie.
00:27:58What do you think?
00:27:59Oh, first pie.
00:28:01Boss.
00:28:03Sorry to interrupt.
00:28:05We've got a bad news.
00:28:07Ken called a board meeting
00:28:08and he's trying to appoint himself
00:28:10as a CEO.
00:28:11What?
00:28:23Ken knows I'm alive.
00:28:25That's why he's moving fast.
00:28:26He wants to secure the CEO position
00:28:27before I can stop him.
00:28:29Exactly.
00:28:30We've got to hit that meeting
00:28:31and stop him, Boss.
00:28:33I can't.
00:28:34My body is still weak.
00:28:36If I faint during the meeting,
00:28:37I'm going to make things worse.
00:28:40But if you don't show up,
00:28:41Ken will win.
00:28:43He already has a lot of support.
00:28:44Yeah, I'm with you.
00:28:45You should rest.
00:28:48You're right.
00:28:50I can't go.
00:28:52But you can.
00:28:58Me?
00:28:59The CEO?
00:29:00But I don't know nothing
00:29:01about running a company.
00:29:03Why you don't let Max
00:29:04to do that?
00:29:06No.
00:29:07They know me too well.
00:29:08Once I step in,
00:29:10they'll go all over me,
00:29:11picking apart everything I do.
00:29:13That's exactly why I have to be you.
00:29:15They don't know you
00:29:16and that's our secret weapon.
00:29:18More important,
00:29:19you go back off
00:29:20when things get tough.
00:29:21You're brave.
00:29:23I trust you.
00:29:24No, no, no.
00:29:26I've got your back.
00:29:28Okay.
00:29:29I'll do it.
00:29:30I know you would.
00:29:39Vincent asked me to inform
00:29:41that he's safe.
00:29:42He'll be back
00:29:43when he's ready.
00:29:44So a woman
00:29:45walks in,
00:29:46says some words,
00:29:48and you just bite.
00:29:49As Vincent's associate,
00:29:50I can confirm,
00:29:52she's not lying.
00:29:54Oh yeah,
00:29:55she's not lying.
00:29:56So why the hell
00:29:57did she choose
00:29:58to marry a diamond bundle
00:30:00instead of me
00:30:01or Vincent?
00:30:03Why he didn't tell us sooner?
00:30:05This is outrageous.
00:30:06My marriage is my business.
00:30:08But,
00:30:09if you need a proof,
00:30:10I can open
00:30:11to see you're safe
00:30:12right now.
00:30:13Only Vincent knows
00:30:14the passcode.
00:30:15If she can open it,
00:30:16this only proves
00:30:17that she's telling us
00:30:18the truth.
00:30:25Are you seriously going
00:30:26to embarrass yourself
00:30:27like this?
00:30:28What's the matter, Ken?
00:30:29Are you scared
00:30:30to get something to hide?
00:30:31How dare you
00:30:32say something like that?
00:30:33Let her try, boss.
00:30:36Stopping her
00:30:37will only make us worse.
00:30:43The passcode is
00:30:44329716.
00:30:46Remember it.
00:30:54Wrong code?
00:30:56It can't be.
00:31:02Well,
00:31:03there you are, Jenny.
00:31:04You're just a fraud,
00:31:05as I see it.
00:31:06All right, everyone.
00:31:07Calm down.
00:31:09Jenny,
00:31:10please try again.
00:31:20There's no way
00:31:21for that
00:31:22that code is wrong.
00:31:30So, well,
00:31:31it's over.
00:31:33Time for you two frauds
00:31:34to leave.
00:31:36Wait a second.
00:31:38That's not the real safe.
00:31:39Not a real safe?
00:31:40No way.
00:31:41You're just making up
00:31:42another lie.
00:31:43I can prove it.
00:31:49This tag on this safe
00:31:50says it was made
00:31:51last year.
00:31:52Vincent's safe
00:31:53has been in use
00:31:54for at least five years.
00:31:55That's
00:31:56absurd.
00:31:57They took it
00:31:58straight forward
00:31:59from the CEO's office,
00:32:00from Benson's room.
00:32:02Maybe
00:32:03he just replaced
00:32:04it himself.
00:32:05Vincent would never
00:32:06replace the safe
00:32:07without notifying the board.
00:32:08I know
00:32:09where the real safe is.
00:32:12It's in the King's office.
00:32:14How
00:32:15dare you
00:32:16accusing me?
00:32:17Then prove me wrong.
00:32:18Let's bet
00:32:19if the safe is not
00:32:20in your office,
00:32:21then you win.
00:32:23If not,
00:32:24I leave.
00:32:26I'm not
00:32:27playing your game here.
00:32:28Go search his office.
00:32:30Now.
00:32:36Hold on.
00:32:37Hold on.
00:32:38Hold on.
00:32:39We will go together
00:32:40and search
00:32:41with you guys
00:32:42during the search.
00:32:43No.
00:32:44You'll stay here.
00:32:45Who the hell
00:32:46do you think you are?
00:32:47I'm the sole heir
00:32:48to the Hopewell Empire.
00:32:49If you walk out now,
00:32:50this won't look like
00:32:51you've got something
00:32:52to hide.
00:32:53He's right.
00:32:54Stay.
00:32:55The guard can't handle it.
00:33:03This
00:33:04is the real safe.
00:33:14Let's put it
00:33:15into a vote.
00:33:17All in favor of
00:33:19Jennifer Bowman
00:33:21as the interim CEO.
00:33:23Raise your hand.
00:33:31Unanimous.
00:33:32Unanimous.
00:33:33Jennifer Bowman
00:33:34is now
00:33:35the CEO
00:33:36of the company.
00:33:38Jenny,
00:33:39the floor is yours.
00:33:45Hold on.
00:33:47So,
00:33:48anything to say now?
00:33:49Yeah.
00:33:50I've got something.
00:33:51Leon,
00:33:52he's the one that
00:33:53dragged me into this.
00:33:54Leon?
00:33:55That's the best
00:33:56you have got?
00:33:57Yes.
00:33:58And he's the one
00:33:59that swapped the safe
00:34:00and he said
00:34:01he's gonna keep control.
00:34:02This was the only way.
00:34:03What?
00:34:04How can you say that?
00:34:05Shut up, traitor!
00:34:07Vincent is my brother.
00:34:09I would never,
00:34:10ever betray him.
00:34:11I literally cried
00:34:12in his funeral.
00:34:14Leon,
00:34:15you're fired.
00:34:17Security,
00:34:18take him away.
00:34:24Listen, Kenny,
00:34:25I will let you slide that,
00:34:27but you don't think
00:34:28that we will not
00:34:29be watching you.
00:34:30Of course, Jenny.
00:34:31Sure.
00:34:33Jenny,
00:34:34as you are now
00:34:35the interim CEO,
00:34:37so,
00:34:38the board needs something
00:34:39important from you.
00:34:46It's her first day
00:34:47as interim CEO.
00:34:48Give her some time
00:34:49to settle in.
00:34:50Hey man,
00:34:51let me tell you something.
00:34:52Vincent
00:34:53trusted her
00:34:54and I'm pretty sure
00:34:56she can handle it.
00:34:57Alright,
00:34:58let's hear this.
00:34:59So,
00:35:00the Hopewell Group
00:35:01is expanding
00:35:02into streaming media
00:35:03and we've got
00:35:04two options
00:35:05to invest.
00:35:06The first one,
00:35:07which is
00:35:08short max
00:35:10and it's focused
00:35:11on soap operas.
00:35:13And the second option,
00:35:14which is long max
00:35:16and is focusing
00:35:18on producing
00:35:20high budget movies.
00:35:22And,
00:35:23I bet
00:35:24you don't know
00:35:25anything about it.
00:35:26Do you?
00:35:27And in case
00:35:28you don't know guys,
00:35:29Mrs. Jennifer Bowman
00:35:31is a hairdresser.
00:35:33She used to work
00:35:34in a cheap saloon.
00:35:35So,
00:35:36I got a question.
00:35:37Does that sound
00:35:38like someone's
00:35:39qualified
00:35:40to run
00:35:41the Hopewell Group?
00:35:48A hairdresser
00:35:49has no
00:35:50decision making
00:35:51in the Hopewell Group.
00:35:53You should step down.
00:35:55Ken is right.
00:35:57I'm just a hairdresser.
00:35:59No degree
00:36:00for business.
00:36:01But,
00:36:02working in a saloon
00:36:04make me
00:36:05be more near
00:36:07to real people.
00:36:08And,
00:36:09I listen to these people
00:36:11and they all
00:36:12watch
00:36:13a soap opera.
00:36:15Soap operas.
00:36:16You're basing
00:36:17your decision
00:36:19on a gossip
00:36:20in a saloon?
00:36:21It's not like a gossip.
00:36:23These are real people.
00:36:25This is our public.
00:36:27All these women
00:36:29pay for a higher quality
00:36:31of a soap opera.
00:36:33So, Jenny,
00:36:34are you saying
00:36:36that investing
00:36:37in Shortmax
00:36:38is a smarter
00:36:39concept?
00:36:40I agree.
00:36:41Let's vote.
00:36:42All in favor of
00:36:44investing
00:36:45in Shortmax.
00:36:49All unanimous.
00:36:50We're investing
00:36:51in Shortmax.
00:36:52Jenny,
00:36:53well done.
00:36:55Shortmax
00:37:09You totally crushed
00:37:10on the board meeting today.
00:37:12You should have seen
00:37:13Kane's face.
00:37:14He was so busy.
00:37:15Can you imagine?
00:37:17I fell for you
00:37:18in a moment
00:37:19just like this.
00:37:21I got something for you.
00:37:26Dr. Pan,
00:37:27the best oncologist
00:37:28out there.
00:37:30I made an appointment
00:37:31for your mom.
00:37:32She can see him tomorrow.
00:37:35Thank you, Johnny.
00:37:37I'm sorry.
00:37:39Call me Johnny.
00:37:40It's better.
00:37:41Okay, Johnny.
00:37:56Leo,
00:37:57I know you are angry.
00:37:59But look,
00:38:00if I hadn't made you
00:38:01take the fall,
00:38:02I'd be out too.
00:38:05So take this
00:38:06as my apology.
00:38:12Keep working for me.
00:38:19Of course, boss.
00:38:21What do you need?
00:38:22So,
00:38:23anything about my brother
00:38:24or that bum
00:38:25who fooled us?
00:38:26Not much.
00:38:29Except for I remember
00:38:30seeing that bum
00:38:31about a month ago.
00:38:32He was all cleaned up,
00:38:34nice clothes,
00:38:36new haircut.
00:38:37He looked exactly
00:38:38like Vincent.
00:38:40It's almost as if
00:38:41he was
00:38:43the same person.
00:38:44You idiot.
00:38:46He is my brother.
00:38:50Jenny must be with him.
00:38:54See where they are
00:38:55in their location
00:38:57and track him down.
00:38:58Alright?
00:39:02What are you two talking about?
00:39:08Did I fire you, Leon?
00:39:10Why are you still here?
00:39:11Leon is not working here anymore.
00:39:13But he's still my friend.
00:39:15And he can stop by
00:39:16anytime he wants.
00:39:17As a CEO,
00:39:18I'm banning him
00:39:19from this office.
00:39:20No problem.
00:39:22I'm out.
00:39:26It's work hour,
00:39:27Kenan.
00:39:28Do your job.
00:39:29Alright, CEO.
00:39:32But hey look,
00:39:33I'll win.
00:39:35And this isn't over.
00:39:36And you will lose everything.
00:39:38Brag it on.
00:39:40I'm not scared of you.
00:39:44Hello?
00:39:47What?
00:39:49How did this happen?
00:39:53What?
00:40:05Mom,
00:40:06Dr. Peng's secretary
00:40:08says that you have been
00:40:09skipping your appointments.
00:40:11Why?
00:40:12I don't want to go.
00:40:13You have cancer.
00:40:15You need to go.
00:40:16That doctor was recommended
00:40:17by Johnny.
00:40:18I don't trust that punk.
00:40:20How many times
00:40:21do I have to tell you?
00:40:22He's not a punk.
00:40:24Whatever.
00:40:25I'm busy, okay?
00:40:27You even had a cancer?
00:40:31Fine.
00:40:33You caught me.
00:40:35I don't.
00:40:48What now?
00:40:51Yes, Leo.
00:40:52Boss,
00:40:53we found the mansion
00:40:54where Johnny stayed.
00:40:55And your brother is there too.
00:40:56Alright.
00:40:57So make sure
00:40:58he's dead.
00:41:21What are you doing here, Leo?
00:41:45My brother said
00:41:46if you do not leave,
00:41:47he wants you dead.
00:41:52My hat.
00:42:00You're gonna charge now, huh?
00:42:07Don't do anything stupid, Leo.
00:42:09Stupid?
00:42:10This is the smartest move
00:42:12I've ever done.
00:42:13Besides,
00:42:14the whole world thinks
00:42:15you're dead anyway.
00:42:16Nobody will miss you.
00:42:22Yes?
00:42:23It's done.
00:42:24Your brother is dead.
00:42:30Finally.
00:42:37Of course, I'm sure.
00:42:39You don't believe me?
00:42:40Come check it out yourself.
00:42:42What?
00:42:43You don't believe me?
00:42:44Come check it out yourself.
00:42:46What?
00:42:47You don't believe me?
00:42:48Come check it out yourself.
00:42:51How could you lie to me
00:42:53about to have a cancer?
00:42:55I did it for you, Jenny.
00:42:58I wanted you to marry
00:42:59Mr. Hopewell
00:43:00and you were so stubborn.
00:43:02It was the only way
00:43:03I could get you to agree
00:43:04to marry him.
00:43:07Max?
00:43:08What's wrong?
00:43:12What?
00:43:18Johnny!
00:43:19Are you okay?
00:43:20I'm fine.
00:43:22He tried to kill me.
00:43:25Did you call the police?
00:43:27Not yet.
00:43:28He's too useful.
00:43:29Useful?
00:43:30How?
00:43:31I have a plan
00:43:32to take out my brother.
00:43:34Once and for all.
00:43:41What is better than calling the police?
00:43:43The only evidence
00:43:44is that Leo attacked me.
00:43:45Maybe someone planted
00:43:46a bomb in my car
00:43:47but we don't have evidence
00:43:48linking my brother to anything.
00:43:50Leon's?
00:43:51Isn't testimony enough?
00:43:53My brother has money,
00:43:54power and connections.
00:43:55He would have the testimony
00:43:56dropped before I reach the court.
00:43:58So, what is your plan?
00:44:01We need my brother's confessions
00:44:02to take him down.
00:44:06Listen,
00:44:07if I tell you
00:44:08you'll help me get his confession
00:44:10and you'll make sure
00:44:11you get a VA cuts deal.
00:44:13Do you have a deal?
00:44:19Fine.
00:44:21Fine.
00:44:28Ross,
00:44:29Ken is coming.
00:44:35So, where is he?
00:44:38Good job, buddy.
00:44:40Finally.
00:44:45Wait,
00:44:46what's that sound?
00:44:48Like what?
00:44:49There's no one else here.
00:44:50Just you and me.
00:44:51Ah, good.
00:44:54But why there's no blood here?
00:44:56Oh, I strangled him.
00:44:58Ah, good.
00:44:59Just let me check his pulse.
00:45:00No, no, no.
00:45:01You can't.
00:45:02What the hell are you doing?
00:45:04Because you live fingerprints,
00:45:05that's why.
00:45:06That's right.
00:45:07That's right.
00:45:09Wait.
00:45:10Are you missing with me or something?
00:45:16No, boss.
00:45:17I'm not messing with you.
00:45:19Relax.
00:45:20You look nervous.
00:45:21Well, of course I'm nervous.
00:45:23First, I'm killing someone.
00:45:26Look,
00:45:27everything will be fine.
00:45:28Get rid of the body
00:45:29and see you later.
00:45:31Boss, wait.
00:45:32I have one more question.
00:45:34Go ahead.
00:45:35Why did you have me hire someone to
00:45:37place a car bomb
00:45:39and then brought me over here to
00:45:41kill your brother?
00:45:43And why are you asking?
00:45:46Are you trying to record me or something?
00:45:48Are you wearing a wire?
00:45:53Enough, Ken.
00:45:57Enough, Ken.
00:46:00Vincent, my brother.
00:46:02Look at you.
00:46:03You're standing here.
00:46:04I missed you, man.
00:46:06Stop the act.
00:46:07What act?
00:46:08I love you.
00:46:10For once, just be real.
00:46:11So weak.
00:46:12Weak?
00:46:13You think you're better than me?
00:46:15You lie and manipulate everyone.
00:46:17It's not strange.
00:46:19It's a weakness.
00:46:20Vincent, I...
00:46:22Enough!
00:46:23I've done it for once in your life.
00:46:26Yes.
00:46:27I did it.
00:46:28I hired the head man to kill you.
00:46:30And I planted the bomb.
00:46:32And I will send more and more people
00:46:34to kill you until you come for good.
00:46:37Good to know.
00:46:38I've got a question for you.
00:46:44I've got a confession, Ken.
00:46:46Every word is recorded.
00:46:50You think because of a record,
00:46:53you will win, guys?
00:46:54You have the equipment recorded to the police.
00:46:58You're done.
00:47:00But wait.
00:47:02I've got a last surprise.
00:47:05You come to me now.
00:47:07Don't do it, Jenny.
00:47:09If you want, don't do it.
00:47:11I will shoot your lover.
00:47:15Come to me.
00:47:17You come to me now.
00:47:19Let her go, Ken.
00:47:23Finally, Vincent.
00:47:25I can see fear in your eyes.
00:47:31It smells good.
00:47:35This is between us.
00:47:36Pick me instead.
00:47:37Shut up!
00:47:42Ugh!
00:47:50It's over, Ken.
00:47:54You okay?
00:47:55Yeah.
00:47:56So tell me, Jen.
00:47:58Why you choose him over me?
00:48:00Even when you knew he's just a bomb?
00:48:03I didn't care about him money, Ken.
00:48:05He's kind and sweet.
00:48:07That's what matters to you?
00:48:10This is what makes me better than you.
00:48:16It's your first day back.
00:48:18You ready?
00:48:19As long as you're with me.
00:48:29Thanks everyone for hold the things down while I was away.
00:48:32It's good to see the company running smoothly.
00:48:35While I was away,
00:48:36Jenny did an excellent job as Italian CEO.
00:48:39And I would like her to continue on her role.
00:48:42Is there any objection?
00:48:50I was quite surprised.
00:48:53You weren't.
00:48:55There's someone I would like you to meet, Jenny.
00:48:58Okay.
00:49:00Hi.
00:49:06That's my mother, Susan.
00:49:11Susan is your mother?
00:49:13Yes, I am.
00:49:14Oh, but why you can never call her your mom or something like that?
00:49:18My mom like to keep things professional at work.
00:49:21Most people here don't even know.
00:49:23It helps me to see how people really are without favoritism.
00:49:28I see.
00:49:29Yeah, that's why Ken was so nervous around you.
00:49:32He should be.
00:49:33You know, Jenny, you really surprised me with how you handled him.
00:49:37He didn't back off.
00:49:40It's sad to see Ken lost his way,
00:49:42but I'm really glad to see you and Vincent made it true.
00:49:49You know, Susan, I always wondered
00:49:51why did you arrange me to marry Vincent
00:49:55if you were just an ordinary girl?
00:49:57Oh, Jenny, you've never been just an ordinary girl.
00:50:05You're a Vanderbilt.
00:50:06There is nothing ordinary about that.
00:50:09What are you talking about?
00:50:11I'm not a Vanderbilt.
00:50:12I'm a Jennifer Bomer.
00:50:15I mean your biological family.
00:50:17You've been adopted by the Bowmans.
00:50:20What?
00:50:21Adopted?
00:50:22What do you mean?
00:50:23Wait.
00:50:24You didn't know?
00:50:25No.
00:50:28I didn't know either.
00:50:30The Vanderbilt family were the most prominent families in the country.
00:50:34I'm sorry I had to find out this way.
00:50:37Why no one tell me that?
00:50:39I'm sorry, honey.
00:50:40I thought your mom did.
00:50:41No, she doesn't.
00:50:43I need to talk to her.
00:50:45Sorry.
00:50:58Mom.
00:51:01I know the truth.
00:51:03What are you talking about?
00:51:05The Vanderbilts.
00:51:08I know that I was adopted.
00:51:11I'm sorry, Jenny.
00:51:13Why you never told me?
00:51:15I was scared of losing you.
00:51:18I thought if you knew the truth, you'd abandon me.
00:51:22After all, you come from a very important family.
00:51:25You raised me.
00:51:27I will always be your daughter.
00:51:32I love you so much, Jenny.
00:51:41What are you doing here?
00:51:46I still don't understand why you're with him, Jenny.
00:51:49Mom.
00:51:51Because we love each other.
00:51:52I understand that you love her, but what do you have to offer her?
00:51:58The Hopewells are what she deserves.
00:52:01You were homeless.
00:52:02You had to come live in my home to avoid wandering the streets.
00:52:06What's so funny?
00:52:08Sorry.
00:52:09He isn't no one.
00:52:12He's Vincent Hopewell.
00:52:14What?
00:52:18It's true.
00:52:20I've been Vincent Hopewell all along.
00:52:22But how?
00:52:24You're just a bum.
00:52:27Why didn't you tell me?
00:52:30Because he'd lose his memory.
00:52:34I'm here for Jenny, Mr. Bowman.
00:52:37I'm not going anywhere.
00:52:42I suppose I'll have to get used to this then, won't I?
00:52:47Maybe it's a happy ending.
00:52:54Jenny, are you okay?
00:52:56Yeah, I'm fine. I just feel so nauseous these last days.
00:53:01I don't know why.
00:53:03Jenny! Oh my God!
00:53:06You're pregnant!
00:53:08What?
00:53:09Really?
00:53:10No.
00:53:11Oh my God!
00:53:14I'm not having a baby.
00:53:16Mom.
00:53:17Am I going to be a dad?
00:53:25Hensheng, I'm exhausted from the wedding today.
00:53:39Dad.
00:53:40Mom.
00:53:44Dad.
00:53:52It's you.
00:53:54Why?
00:53:58Why are you doing this to me?
00:54:00We just got married in the daytime.
00:54:04It's been 10 years.
00:54:07I've never been with you for 10 years.
00:54:10Do you know why?
00:54:11I did it to get your family's fortune.
00:54:14But now we're married.
00:54:17You're no longer useful.
00:54:19You can go to hell.
00:54:24Gu Hensheng.
00:54:26After all these years, have you ever loved me?
00:54:33Love?
00:54:36You know what?
00:54:38Your sister Hensheng is a hundred times more charming in bed than you.
00:54:43But you are as cold and hard as a corpse.
00:54:50Gu Hensheng, you bastard.
00:54:53How dare you cheat on me with Hensheng.
00:54:58Nuannuan, don't you love me?
00:55:02Then you should die for us.
00:55:06Gu Hensheng, I married you at 22 years old.
00:55:10In order to help you become a member of the prestigious family,
00:55:13I gave up my life and I tempered my strength to do my duty as a wife.
00:55:18I still cannot believe you killed me with your own hands.
00:55:22You take the destruction of the An family as a bright prize for your beloved.
00:55:26If I could have a next life, I'll make you pay the debts of blood in blood.
00:55:35Nuannuan, are you okay?
00:55:37Didn't I die?
00:55:41I thought I was dead.
00:55:44How did those guys drive?
00:55:47Have I been reborn?
00:56:06Get off.
00:56:09How did you drive?
00:56:11Do you know how to drive? Do you have a license?
00:56:13You almost rear-ended me. Do you know that?
00:56:16Nuannuan, I advise you not to marry Gu Hensheng.
00:56:19He's not a nice person.
00:56:36Do you dare to take the bride from the wedding?
00:56:39What?
00:56:42Hensheng, do you have a crush on me?
00:56:46Yes.
00:56:48Nuannuan, did you hit your head?
00:56:52He Jinghuai, I said I have a crush on you.
00:56:55I'm getting married on the 18th of next month.
00:56:57Do you dare to come and take me from the wedding?
00:57:00Do you dare to come and take me from the wedding?
00:57:03Miss An, I suggest you go to the hospital and have your brain checked.
00:57:07I'll pay for it.
00:57:10Feel free to spend it with this card.
00:57:14On the day of the wedding, if you dare to come, I'll go with you.
00:57:21I'll go with you.
00:57:23On the day of the wedding, if you dare to come, I'll go with you.
00:57:29I'll take this card as the bride price.
00:57:32Qiqi, let's go.
00:57:45Miss An, the one all the men in Qingcheng City dream of marrying you are really interesting.
00:57:54Nuannuan, you are just kidding, right?
00:57:56How can you let the famous comeback man in Qingcheng City, Ye Jinghuai, to rob you from your wedding?
00:58:02I'm not joking.
00:58:04Then what about Gui Hensheng?
00:58:06You're the model couple of the whole country.
00:58:08You don't know how many people admire you too.
00:58:11And now you, you're going to cheat on your husband before marriage.
00:58:16What do you take Hensheng for?
00:58:19I treat Gui Hensheng as beast.
00:58:24I'm sorry.
00:58:31Nuannuan, did you have a good time today?
00:58:39Nuannuan, did you have a good time today?
00:58:44Do you have something to say?
00:58:46Nuannuan, are you tired?
00:58:49I'm fine. I need to get you a business talisman.
00:58:53Did you ask for a talisman of a baby for us?
00:58:57In my last life, you've had me the contraceptive pills for 10 years.
00:59:00And now you're pretending to want a baby talisman.
00:59:07Earlier this morning, Qiqi and I went to the mountain.
00:59:09I'm a bit tired. Okay, that's it. I'm hanging up now.
00:59:14Nuannuan, I think you're strange today.
00:59:17Do you have something to hide from me?
00:59:19Oh, I know it.
00:59:21I heard that the feng shui of Lion Mountain is weird.
00:59:24It's very sinister.
00:59:26You're not being haunted by something, are you?
00:59:29I cannot explain it to her.
00:59:31In a moment, I'd rather not to tell her about the rebirth now.
00:59:35So she won't worry.
00:59:37It's okay. No worries.
00:59:39All right, then. If anything happens, you must tell me.
00:59:42You cannot hide it from me.
00:59:44I have a Pilates class later. I gotta go. Bye.
00:59:49Qiqi?
01:00:00Qiqi, thank you. Thank God you didn't die.
01:00:05Qiqi, thank you.
01:00:07Qiqi, thank you. Thank God you didn't die.
01:00:16Qiqi?
01:00:17Qiqi?
01:00:19Qiqi?
01:00:21I'll take you to the hospital.
01:00:23Let's go to the hospital.
01:00:25Qiqi, let's go to the hospital.
01:00:30Nuannuan, you're still in shock from the accident, aren't you?
01:00:34Don't worry.
01:00:35A scoundrel like me will survive for a thousand years.
01:00:38Just a small car accident.
01:00:40How could it kill me?
01:00:42Let's go.
01:00:44Thank goodness nothing has happened yet.
01:00:46There's still time to fix it.
01:00:48Qiqi, I'll protect you this time.
01:00:55Dad, Mom.
01:00:57Nuannuan, didn't you go to pray for Yanshan?
01:01:00Why did you buy so many things?
01:01:05I'm sorry.
01:01:13Why are your eyes so red?
01:01:16Maybe it's from the incense today.
01:01:18Let me take a look.
01:01:20It's okay, Mom.
01:01:23By the way, the Gu family called today and said that they want to meet us to talk about the divorce.
