00:00:00I'll give you the life of the moon
00:00:07And a ship to sail across the ocean
00:00:09Come join me soon, I'll be waiting
00:00:12I'm waiting, but don't make me wait too long
00:00:16I'll give you the colors of the rain
00:00:31Again?
00:00:33Ms. Montgomery, we've fallen on hard times at Montgomery Group and I can't shoulder the load alone.
00:00:37We really need you to come back as CEO and take control of everything again.
00:00:41Please come back, Ms. Montgomery. The company needs you.
00:00:44I'm sure you are more than capable of riding the ship on your own.
00:00:48Right now I'm focused on being Milo's wife.
00:00:51And he doesn't know who I am yet.
00:00:54I need to sit here and help him fulfill his entrepreneurial dreams.
00:00:59Why not just personally invest a billion dollars in your husband's company? That would solve everything.
00:01:04No. He's too proud for that.
00:01:07He'll feel inferior if I reveal my identity.
00:01:11That reminds me. Are you guys all ready for the gala tonight?
00:01:15Yes, ma'am. Ecologic CEO Kane Hudson will be there to announce his billion dollar investment in your husband's research.
00:01:23Good. Oh, and don't ask me again.
00:01:27Oh.
00:01:56She must be the bride from find a wife dot com.
00:01:58If I can just marry her, Grandpa will finally stop trying to play matchmaker for me.
00:02:06It's nice to meet you.
00:02:08Kane Hudson.
00:02:10You know the deets. Stanford grad.
00:02:13Founder of the new energy tech company Ecologics.
00:02:16Thirty billion dollar net worth.
00:02:18Wait. That's Kane?
00:02:21He's actually kind of hot.
00:02:23There. No degree. Front desk reception at this hotel.
00:02:27Sixteen dollars an hour.
00:02:29You work at the front desk here?
00:02:32Is there something wrong with that?
00:02:34Whatever. As long as it stops my grandpa from nagging.
00:02:38I'll marry anything with a heart.
00:02:40Oh, come on. Let's go tie the knot.
00:02:43Tie the knot?
00:02:45As in you and me?
00:02:49Well, if we go right now to the clerk's office,
00:02:52I should be able to make it for tonight's gala.
00:02:55Look, whatever this is, it's not happening.
00:02:59I'm married.
00:03:01Happily, I might add.
00:03:04Wait. Am I not paying you enough?
00:03:07Fine. If you promise to marry me, I'll transfer a million dollars into your bank account right now.
00:03:13That kind of money means nothing to me.
00:03:19Boss, we're in deep shit.
00:03:21A war just broke out overseas, and one of our top suppliers has cut off all our exports.
00:03:25There will be huge losses if we can't deliver our new energy products on time.
00:03:30Okay, I want you to resell all of our current money-making projects at a low price.
00:03:33And I want you to buy all the materials at a high cost from other companies.
00:03:36Even if we don't make any money, we have to deliver on time.
00:03:40Hold up.
00:03:43I just got word that in about ten minutes, multiple countries will be announcing the discovery of new first-class raw materials.
00:03:52Soon you'll have both cheap and high-quality materials to use.
00:03:56And where would a hotel receptionist get their hands on this highly classified information?
00:04:02Well, I guess we'll just have to wait ten minutes and find out.
00:04:06Scratch what I just said. We'll reassess in ten minutes.
00:04:11If I lose money on this, you're going to wish you kept that mouth shut.
00:04:15Well, then it's a good thing I need something from you.
00:04:17Otherwise, I'd just laugh at your company's downfall.
00:04:28Claire, oh my god. I have some good news for you.
00:04:30Hit me.
00:04:31Milo booked the most expensive suite in the entire hotel.
00:04:34He asked me to decorate the floor with roses and decorate the entire room with candles.
00:04:39I'm telling you, you have a surprise waiting.
00:04:42He remembered our three-year anniversary?
00:04:44What's the room number?
00:04:52The check-out time on this room is 11.30.
00:04:59Why didn't he invite me up sooner?
00:05:01Maybe he's still asleep?
00:05:04I'll go check.
00:05:09Okay.
00:05:25Milo, is this that receptionist wife of yours?
00:05:29She could learn a thing or two about skincare. She looks all saggy and gross.
00:05:33Of course she can't compare to you, my dear.
00:05:35She's basically a free housemaid.
00:05:37Skincare would be above her pay grade.
00:05:39Come on. Let's go.
00:05:43You owe me an explanation.
00:05:48Just look at the facts, Claire.
00:05:50I'm a VIP guest here and you're nothing but a lowly receptionist.
00:05:52Need I say more?
00:05:54You really booked a room with this woman on our three-year anniversary?
00:06:01Do our wedding vows mean nothing to you?
00:06:04That's just some shit we said three years ago.
00:06:06I never would have married you if you hadn't promised to take care of me when I was dead broke.
00:06:09Milo, only an idiot like you would fall for someone so repulsive.
00:06:13Look, I was young and naive.
00:06:15Plus, I'll be divorced soon.
00:06:19Did you just say divorced?
00:06:21You heard me. I'm over you.
00:06:23I get depressed just thinking about coming home to your wrinkly face.
00:06:26Now that I've made it big, I can bag any town I want.
00:06:29Why would I waste my time with a four like you?
00:06:36Tony, talk to me.
00:06:38Boss, several countries have just discovered a rich supply of first-class raw materials and are going to export them overseas.
00:06:44We're saved.
00:06:45In minutes, just like she said.
00:06:47How the hell did she know this?
00:06:49Okay, Tony, I need you to look into somebody.
00:06:53I gave up a comfortable life for you.
00:06:57I sacrificed so much and this is how you repay me?
00:07:02I'm the only reason you live in a luxury apartment.
00:07:05Without me, you'd be scraping by in some shithole slum.
00:07:08Milo is a giant in the medical world.
00:07:10His blood testing for cancer is nearing a breakthrough.
00:07:13And once he succeeds, he'll be saving millions of lives.
00:07:16A desk worker like you doesn't belong in his circle.
00:07:19Yeah, you hear that?
00:07:21Peasants don't mingle with the social elite.
00:07:23Stella, however, is perfectly regarded in my status.
00:07:26Seriously?
00:07:28I paid for all of your daily expenses so that you could finish your research.
00:07:34I ran around finding you investments and networking.
00:07:39To this day, all of your achievements are due to my generosity.
00:07:45I mean, if anything, the real peasant is you.
00:07:49You think you can take credit for everything?
00:07:51I got to where I am on my own talent and perseverance.
00:07:54The only thing you helped me with was housework.
00:08:01Milo, watch what you say to her.
00:08:03Do you really enjoy spending your time with these lowlifes?
00:08:06Stella over here is on good terms with top employee Tony at Ecologics.
00:08:11She secured me a billion dollar investment.
00:08:13It's more than you could ever dream of doing for me.
00:08:15I am the one who told Mr. Hudson to give you that money.
00:08:20I am the one who planned the gala for tonight where he will be announcing his investment.
00:08:26Otherwise, Kane would have never given you the time of day.
00:08:31Are we talking about the same Kane Hudson here?
00:08:33The man is a god in the new energy industry.
00:08:35He makes more in ten minutes than you do in ten lifetimes.
00:08:38Why the hell would he listen to you?
00:08:41Miles, if you would have let me, I could have turned you into a god of your own.
00:08:48This is your loss.
00:08:50Why are you so bitter?
00:08:52Let me guess. You're after my money?
00:08:56Here.
00:08:58There's 50,000 on this bank card.
00:09:02Yes.
00:09:05Consider it your salary for the last three years of housekeeping.
00:09:08And from this day on, you're no longer my wife.
00:09:1550 grand.
00:09:17Everything that I've done for you is only worth 50 grand.
00:09:22If you're going to get greedy and try to negotiate, I won't give you anything.
00:09:26I only did it because I pity you.
00:09:28I paid more money than this in my sleep.
00:09:39You crazy bitch.
00:09:41Yeah, I am crazy. Crazy for wasting my time with you.
00:09:48Milo, I am taking back everything that I've given you.
00:09:51Which, if I do remember correctly, is literally everything you have.
00:09:56Your empty threats aren't going to make me stay with you.
00:10:03This is yourself.
00:10:08I'll tell you the full truth at the gathering.
00:10:11I hope you won't regret anything.
00:10:13Regrets?
00:10:15Divorcing you is the greatest decision I ever made in my whole life.
00:10:18There we are.
00:10:19Enough chit-chatting with this blue collar trash.
00:10:22Let's go buy you more outfit for the gala.
00:10:25Great idea. Let's go.
00:10:30Claire, forget about those assholes.
00:10:33Yeah, no, I'm fine.
00:10:36Go ahead and get back to work.
00:10:44If you want, I can cancel the gala and run your ex's knife.
00:10:48You've worked really, really hard to accomplish this.
00:10:54I would hate to cancel the gala because of my relationship drama.
00:10:59Collaborating with Montgomery Group was a big dream of mine.
00:11:03But you helped me out of a serious pickle. Like it or not, I owe you one.
00:11:08Milo is one of Montgomery's key investments.
00:11:11Canceling the gala will not sit well with him.
00:11:14I researched his so-called blood test for cancer.
00:11:18He's lacking reliable scientific data.
00:11:21Seems like a well-programmed pseudoscience.
00:11:25I suspect that he's going to use this to swindle investment funds.
00:11:30And what exactly do you plan to do about that?
00:11:34I want you to marry me.
00:11:36Then we can announce publicly the gala.
00:11:39And you can tell everyone about us.
00:11:42And you can tell everyone about Montgomery and how they're not going to invest Milo anymore.
00:11:48I'm sure he'd love that. And his mistress.
00:11:55You're not going to sweep me off my feet by proposing like that.
00:11:59Oh, and for tonight's gala, I'm the one calling the shots.
00:12:07How about this? You stick by my side at the gala, follow my orders.
00:12:13If you do a good job, I might help you.
00:12:16Do you know who I am?
00:12:18If anything, I should be helping you out.
00:12:20Well, you are very impressive.
00:12:22But you and I are not on the same level.
00:12:26Well, let's see then.
00:12:28I'm curious what kind of help you want to give me.
00:12:35Oh, hey. Come on. I can take you home.
00:12:39Thank you, but I'm okay. I have some private matters to attend to.
00:12:43You know, you'll be my passenger princess sooner or later.
00:12:51I'm sorry.
00:12:53I'm sorry.
00:12:55I'm sorry.
00:12:57I'm sorry.
00:12:58I'm sorry.
00:13:04Didn't my son dump you?
00:13:06If you're here trying to get him back, don't bother.
00:13:10I just came to grab a few things.
00:13:14Here.
00:13:16While we're at it, you can have mine beside those.
00:13:19You're just in time. You're about to throw your crap in the trash.
00:13:33There.
00:13:37The agreement's signed and you have your stuff.
00:13:40Now get out and never come back.
00:13:51Yep.
00:13:53Yeah, there's 20.
00:13:55Bye-bye.
00:13:56Boss, I found some information on that woman.
00:13:59Her name's Claire Montgomery.
00:14:01Montgomery?
00:14:03Yeah. She's not with the Montgomery group.
00:14:05Just happens to have the same last name.
00:14:07An ordinary receptionist is going up against Milo Preston?
00:14:11She's got some guts, I'll give her that.
00:14:13Get in the car. We're going to see her.
00:14:16If you break my things,
00:14:18then you're going to break your bank too trying to pay me back.
00:14:23It's just a bunch of cheap stuff anyway.
00:14:26Who cares if it breaks?
00:14:36Give me the necklace.
00:14:38Fat chance.
00:14:40It looks way better on me.
00:14:42And someone in your line of business can't afford such expensive things.
00:14:46You must have stolen from us who have bought it.
00:14:49I bought that necklace with my own money.
00:14:52Oh, the hell you did.
00:14:53I could spend your entire monthly salary just in the hair salon.
00:14:58There's no way that you bought it.
00:15:00Tell me,
00:15:02do you really take our money, Claire?
00:15:04Wouldn't you like to know?
00:15:06Look, just give me back the necklace.
00:15:08I will not ask nicely next time.
00:15:14If you want it,
00:15:16take it.
00:15:20Take your hands off my sister, you human villain.
00:15:24Claire.
00:15:41Claire.
00:15:44If anybody hurts her, I'll break their wrist.
00:15:48Wow.
00:15:49Well, look what Claire found.
00:15:50I guess this explains her newfound confidence.
00:15:53But then again, once a whore, always a whore.
00:15:56Tony, shut her up.
00:15:58Open your mouth one more time and I'll shut it for you.
00:16:01You're banging this guy in exchange for protection?
00:16:04Gross.
00:16:08I need my necklace.
00:16:21I need my necklace.
00:16:39Thank you for driving me home.
00:16:42I'll see you tonight.
00:16:43Wait.
00:16:45Oh, I can do it.
00:16:48Don't move.
00:17:01Let me drive you to the gala tonight.
00:17:03I have a ride.
00:17:15Boss, you know I can't find any other information on her.
00:17:20I make more money than this in my sleep.
00:17:23I just got word that in about ten minutes.
00:17:26Ten minutes, just like she said.
00:17:28I need my necklace.
00:17:30If she's wearing jewelry like that and she's able to predict the discovery of new raw materials,
00:17:34she's not just an ordinary woman.
00:17:36Keep looking.
00:17:38I gotta know who she is.
00:17:40Got it, boss.
00:17:45Move.
00:17:54Good to see you, Ms. Montgomery.
00:17:56From this day forward,
00:17:59I'll be retaking control of Montgomery.
00:18:02Then should we cancel the gala?
00:18:03No.
00:18:04I want to see the look on Milo's face when he realizes what he's done.
00:18:09I wasted too much time on that greasy little bitch.
00:18:12It's time for me to become a better Montgomery.
00:18:17And of course, the scuba diving is lovely there, but I'm not going to vacation in the same place twice.
00:18:22Mr. Preston, congrats on the investment from Ecologic.
00:18:25This will be a game changer for your cancer testing research.
00:18:27Yeah, I mean, Ecologics is the world's leading new energy company.
00:18:31What's their output?
00:18:33Ten billion a year?
00:18:35With Mr. Hudson's backing, you've got a bright future ahead of you.
00:18:38I appreciate your support.
00:18:39Everyone here played a role in this achievement.
00:18:42We celebrate together.
00:18:44Hey, is it true that you got divorced?
00:18:48It is.
00:18:50And if his ex-wife hadn't been holding him back for three years,
00:18:53this day would have come a whole lot sooner.
00:18:56Not coming anywhere in her life?
00:18:58She wasn't worth a second of my love.
00:19:00I consider divorcing her a step in the direction of success.
00:19:04Now you got me curious about her.
00:19:06What does she look like?
00:19:07What does she look like?
00:19:09Don't get your hopes up.
00:19:11It's actually hilarious how ugly she is.
00:19:16Smilo.
00:19:19Wait!
00:19:37Hello, skank.
00:19:39This is a private gala.
00:19:41And guess what? You're not allowed.
00:19:43Excuse me? And where does it say that I can't be here?
00:19:46Claire, we're over.
00:19:48Just leave me alone.
00:19:50If you had any self-awareness, you would know how sad it looks trying to get me back.
00:19:53The only thing sad is you, naked with the light on.
00:19:57I'm here to show these people what a fucking fraud you are.
00:20:04How dare you insult my son!
00:20:08Milo is well-packaged.
00:20:16You absolute ink of poverty.
00:20:22That weak little slap is nothing compared to the pain and agony you feel.
00:20:29Your threats mean nothing to us.
00:20:32And the people here? We're movers and shakers.
00:20:34That guy that you're banging ain't gonna give you any help.
00:20:38Are you trying to get slapped, too?
00:20:42Where's your sugar daddy, Claire?
00:20:44Oh, I bet you thought he was gonna come here and save you.
00:20:47I could take you both on my own.
00:20:50You think my power comes from a man?
00:20:53If only you knew.
00:20:55Man, I'm glad I divorced you.
00:20:57I knew you were stupid.
00:20:59But I didn't realize how easy you were.
00:21:01I don't even want to know your body count.
00:21:02I don't even want to know your body count now that we've split up.
00:21:05Oh, that's rich coming from you.
00:21:08You're the one who cheated on me when we were still married.
00:21:11That's different. Stella has taken my career to new heights.
00:21:15You're a useless housewife.
00:21:17I'd be crazy not to choose her over you.
00:21:19The real you is an asshole.
00:21:22I never should have spent so much time getting you investments and paving your way to the top.
00:21:28I wasted three years.
00:21:33You're a liar.
00:21:38I was the one slaving away to get Milo these opportunities.
00:21:41You did nothing for him.
00:21:43Yeah, Stella's uncle is the CFO of Montgomery Group.
00:21:46Only she can get the support that Milo deserves.
00:21:49True that. Claire's just lashing out out of jealousy.
00:21:54I was the one who secured all of your investments and research opportunities over the past few years.
00:21:59Including the investment on Ecologix.
00:22:01Don't fall for her bullshit.
00:22:03Relax. I was with her long enough to know how useless she is.
00:22:07As long as I can play my uncle as the CFO card, no one's going to doubt me.
00:22:12I'll say this once. Leave the gala before things get messy.
00:22:17You're the one who has no business here.
00:22:20I already told King to cancel the investment.
00:22:24You're not getting another cent from Ecologix.
00:22:26Sorry for the wait.
00:22:32Evening, folks. I'm Gideon Ford, Executive Assistant of Ecologix.
00:22:37I'm here on our CEO's account to present this agreement with the gala's host.
00:22:43Hear that?
00:22:45And you thought he canceled the investment.
00:22:47Not on my watch, bitch.
00:22:49And what makes you so sure?
00:22:52Boss, we just got a complaint about our investigation into Claire.
00:22:56We have no choice but to shut it down.
00:22:59Interesting. She's definitely piqued my interest.
00:23:02Has she arrived at the gala?
00:23:04She's there. Gideon's about to deliver the agreement.
00:23:07Should we trust Claire?
00:23:09With our lives.
00:23:11Who else would it be for?
00:23:13I don't know.
00:23:15I don't know.
00:23:17With our lives.
00:23:19Who else would it be for?
00:23:21Not some minimum wage hotel worker.
00:23:25Mr. Ford.
00:23:27Just to confirm, that's Mr. Hudson's investment agreement you got there?
00:23:31That's right.
00:23:33Well, that settles it.
00:23:35Your cute little games are over.
00:23:37I'm heading to the top.
00:23:39I'm so proud of you, babe.
00:23:42Don't get too excited.
00:23:43This agreement was invalidated ten minutes ago.
00:23:53Do you really think you can influence Kane's decisions?
00:23:56Get real.
00:23:58You'd only be let through the doors at Ecologics as a janitor.
00:24:01Mr. Ford.
00:24:03Please, read us the contents of the agreement.
00:24:06Sir, you are not authorized to view the agreement's terms.
00:24:09I'm the host of the gala.
00:24:10If anyone's authorized, it's me.
00:24:16Miss Montgomery.
00:24:18The fate of that agreement is for you to decide.
00:24:21Get in.
00:24:23She's not involved in the Montgomery Group.
00:24:25She just happens to have the same last name as the CEO.
00:24:28Don't involve her in this.
00:24:31No, he meant what he said.
00:24:33Whether this agreement will be voided or not, isn't.
00:24:36Do you know how important this is?
00:24:37Do you know how important this is?
00:24:39If I sign that paper, I'll be one of the most successful entrepreneurs overnight.
00:24:43It's going to change my life.
00:24:45You really need to think about it.
00:24:49Stop!
00:24:53What are you doing?
00:25:03I told you I would take back that agreement.
00:25:06This is just the beginning.
00:25:12You're the executive assistant at Ecologix.
00:25:15You should know how important that agreement was.
00:25:19Like I said, the fate of that agreement lies on Miss Montgomery's hands.
00:25:24It's not yours to decide.
00:25:26So you slept with this guy too, huh?
00:25:28Jesus, Claire, nothing's broken with you.
00:25:35You've got some nerve talking to Miss Montgomery like that.
00:25:38Okay, now I'm really ticked off.
00:25:42Guys, get these two out of here.
00:25:51Come on.
00:25:53Come on, try me!
00:26:06Come on.
00:26:13Hey, listen.
00:26:15Your CEO is the one that organized this whole gala for me.
00:26:18And now you're teaming up with Claire and letting her tear up my agreement?
00:26:22When Mr. Hudson gets here, I'm going to tell him everything.
00:26:25Wow, you really don't get it yet, do you?
00:26:28Shut your mouth and go back to your hotel desk.
00:26:32Leave my agreements alone.
00:26:35Ugh!
00:26:45Mr. Hudson's here.
00:26:48Now you're finished.
00:26:50Speak for yourself.
00:26:52Waging a war on my turf?
00:26:54You're going to wish you were dead!
00:27:06What?
00:27:08Doesn't that guy look familiar?
00:27:11Oh, that's right, it's Claire's little sugar daddy.
00:27:14Yep, that's him.
00:27:16Calling in your new fling to impersonate Mr. Hudson?
00:27:19Nice try, Claire.
00:27:21You fool.
00:27:23Mr. Hudson's the energy king.
00:27:25This guy you brought with you is some kind of lawless barbarian.
00:27:30I don't care who he is.
00:27:31This guy you brought with you is some kind of lawless barbarian.
00:27:37Oh no!
00:27:39You figured me out.
00:27:41What am I going to do?
00:27:43What's an asshole like you doing in a place like this?
00:27:46As if trespassing on our property isn't enough.
00:27:49Fine, stay.
00:27:51We're going to teach you a lesson.
00:27:54Yeah, I'd love to see you try.
00:27:56Do they really not know what Mr. Hudson looks like?
00:27:58The Preston family are a bunch of idiots.
00:28:01They don't even recognize the energy king.
00:28:04Hey, people!
00:28:07Are we going to greet my boss or not?
00:28:16Welcome, Mr. Hudson.
00:28:18It's great to see you.
00:28:20Thanks for coming, boss.
00:28:25What's going on here?
00:28:26What's going on here?
00:28:28Wait, is that guy really Mr. Hudson?
00:28:31That's right. You are looking at the CEO of Ecologix.
00:28:37Kane Hudson.
00:28:43You're right. She's just a glorified servant.
00:28:46No way does she know Kane Hudson.
00:28:48What are you muttering about?
00:28:50You asked to see my boss. Here he is.
00:28:52Mr. Hudson is a trusted partner with the Preston family.
00:28:55No way would he stoop so low as to join forces with my shitty ex-wife.
00:29:00Milo, you dipshit.
00:29:02That guy literally is Kane Hudson.
00:29:05What?
00:29:07No.
00:29:12Are you really Mr. Hudson?
00:29:15Oh my god.
00:29:17Mr. Hudson, please, forgive my ignorance.
00:29:20And on behalf of the entire Preston family, please accept our sincerest apologies.
00:29:25I'm not the one you owe an apology to.
00:29:31Go on. I'd love to hear what you have to apologize for.
00:29:35Sorry.
00:29:38You're going to have to do much better than that.
00:29:42Effective immediately, Ecologix is ready to go.
00:29:45Effective immediately, Ecologix is withdrawing its billion dollar investment with Milo's research
00:29:51and officially ending our business relationship with the Preston family.
00:29:55He's withdrawing the investment without my consent?
00:29:58Shouldn't he be afraid of stirring up trouble with the Montgomery group?
00:30:01I'm sorry to be mysterious, Ms. Montgomery. I'll explain everything later.
00:30:05Wait. We're making a mistake here. Let's talk this over.
00:30:09A little late for negotiating, don't you think?
00:30:11God, you just never quit. What kind of spell do you have this guy under?
00:30:23You scumbag. You know Claire's the one that asked me to invest a billion dollars with you.
00:30:28Since you divorced, I have no reason to help.
00:30:31Wait. You knew that I requested Milo's investment?
00:30:36Shh. I'm just pulling his leg. Trust me. It'll make you look good.
00:30:39Fine. You're not wrong anyway.
00:30:42I don't understand why you're helping her.
00:30:45You're the energy king. You can score with the sexiest babes in the world.
00:30:49Why settle for a throwaway like her?
00:30:53Mr. Hudson, this chick has you hoodwinked. She's just a poor, uneducated laborer.
00:30:58Stella's right. And I hope you're not just in it for the ass.
00:31:03I'd rather fuck a sex doll.
00:31:09A sex doll is the only action a short, scrawny loser like you will ever get.
00:31:18Don't get a big head, Claire. He's clearly just using you.
00:31:22Is that jealousy that I'm sensing?
00:31:34I should thank you. If it wasn't for you, I might have missed my chance with Claire.
00:31:40It's a shame you couldn't appreciate her strengths.
00:31:44Thanks for divorcing me, Milo. Otherwise, I never would have met someone so much more talented, handsome, and loving than you ever were.
00:31:54Don't be so naive, Claire. He's only with you to hit it and quit it.
00:31:58A high flyer like that would never look at you as marriage material.
00:32:01Yeah. Guys from rich families can't just take home any old bitch.
00:32:05Imagine the look on his mother's face if he tried to ask for his hand.
00:32:09Actually, I think my mother would approve.
00:32:13Claire, if you want to marry me, I'm all yours.
00:32:21Mr. Hudson! She's just in it for your money!
00:32:25It doesn't matter to me.
00:32:27You need to think this over. This woman is going to scam you out of your money, sabotage your work projects, and take down your entire business!
00:32:33I don't need to think anything over. I know Claire way better than you do.
00:32:40Look.
00:32:45You can trust me, Mr. Hudson. If you invest in me, I'll complete my groundbreaking cancer testing research, and I'll repay you generously for your support.
00:32:53Wake up, Milo. You're not going to be the guy that cures cancer.
00:33:02Shut your mouth!
00:33:04And what the hell do you know? You didn't even go to college. You're just jealous because Milo's a genius.
00:33:09Right. Because needing my help to get investments for three years makes him a genius.
00:33:15Your help? You might know how to seduce guys, but when it comes to networking and connections, you are no match for me.
00:33:20Oh. Well then, I cannot wait to see how you get Milo out of this mess.
00:33:27And I can't wait to see what other cheap tricks you have up your sleeve.
00:33:34Yes, this is Milo.
00:33:36What?
00:33:37You're withdrawing your investment funds?
00:33:41No, no, no. Please. Please don't do that. Okay? No, I'm begging you. These funds are important to my re-
00:33:48What? What happened?
00:33:51My investment money. It's all gone.
00:33:54Impossible. Those investors are friends of my uncle.
00:33:57What did you do?
00:34:00Claire. Let's get out of here.
00:34:03You don't leave until I say so!
00:34:08If you hurt Claire, you're going to regret it.
00:34:22Claire, I'm so sorry. I've been terrible to you. Remember those three happy years we shared?
00:34:32Please, just forgive me.
00:34:35Milo, what are you doing? You look pathetic.
00:34:38Don't touch me. You and that uncle of yours have ruined my career.
00:34:44Claire, if you can get the investors to reverse their decision, I'll break up with Stella.
00:34:55I still love you. I mean it.
00:34:59Really?
00:35:01Claire, it's Bluffy.
00:35:04I knew you'd understand.
00:35:08You can't fool me with your last minute begging. Milo, I don't believe a word that comes out of your mouth.
00:35:18Let's go.
00:35:24Oh, you petty bitch. You think you can take on me?
00:35:27Hey!
00:35:29Just wait and see.
00:35:34Great acting back there. You know, for a second I almost believed you actually loved me.
00:35:41I wasn't acting. I meant everything I said in there.
00:35:47I fell for Milo's lies. I'm sure as hell not going to fall for yours.
00:35:53Good night, Kate.
00:35:58You were right to end things with Milo. Now you can start fresh.
00:36:04I gave the green light to Kane for everything he did today. This doesn't change where he stands with us.
00:36:09Understood.
00:36:11Also, in three days I'll be holding an event to announce my return to Montgomery Group.
00:36:20God damn it! How did this happen? Even my mom left!
00:36:28Milo, don't worry. We'll find a way out of this.
00:36:33I'm sorry, Stella. You know I would never leave you. I just wanted my investment money back.
00:36:44Kane Hudson! You get over here now!
00:36:51Wait. Aren't you Eliza Reed? The Reed family heiress?
00:36:55I am indeed the Reed family heiress. And Kane Hudson's fiancé.
00:37:03Milo, go introduce yourself. She's loaded. Run up there with Miss Montgomery.
00:37:11Miss Reed. It's an absolute pleasure. I'm Milo Preston.
00:37:16You mean the genius behind the cutting-edge cancer testing research?
00:37:21That's me.
00:37:22He's backed by the Montgomery Group.
00:37:25Partnering with him might be my shot at finally landing that collaboration with the Montgomery's.
00:37:30Well, I've heard very impressive things about you. I would love to explore potential collaboration.
00:37:36I've been looking forward to meeting you. And did you say Kane was your fiancé?
00:37:41Yes. Have you guys seen him?
00:37:44Yes. He has a unique relationship with my ex-wife.
00:37:49He recently cancelled a one billion dollar investment because of her.
00:37:53What did you just say? He cancelled an investment because of your ex-wife?
00:38:01Yes. He even said he's going to marry her. I don't know what kind of spell that witch put on him.
00:38:09You two have been taken for fools.
00:38:12What? Miss Reed, what do you mean we've been taken for fools?
00:38:16That investment was not from Kane at all.
00:38:19Kane's the one that organized this whole gala for me. It's not his money.
00:38:23It's insider information. For the past three years, your research has been all fast-tracked thanks to the quiet backing of the Montgomery Group.
00:38:32What? The Montgomery Group has been behind me the whole time?
00:38:35Exactly. The galas, the billion dollar investments, all Montgomery Group.
00:38:42Oh, I knew it! A genius like me can't go unnoticed.
00:38:46So Kane and that conniving bitch Claire have been playing us this whole time.
00:38:50I won't let Kane call off our engagement that easily.
00:38:53Miss Reed, if there's any way we can help, please just say the word.
00:38:57You want your investment money back? Of course.
00:39:01But how? Go straight to the Montgomery Group and expose Kane's lies.
00:39:12Boss, canceling Milo's investment like that? You sure the Montgomery Group is going to let this slide?
00:39:18Look, I know what I'm doing, okay? I'll talk to their CEO myself.
00:39:26Mr. Hudson, I just heard about your move at the gala.
00:39:29Look, Mr. Duncan, let me explain.
00:39:31No need. I'm fully behind you.
00:39:34Oh, you are?
00:39:36Of course. That is our CEO's decision. In fact, they want you to come by headquarters.
00:39:41They have a gift for you.
00:39:43I'll be there. Thank you.
00:39:46Miss Montgomery, I've invited Kane to headquarters as you requested.
00:39:50Kane, don't be startled when you learn my real identity.
00:39:57Well, look at that. Now we don't have to deal with any backlash from the Montgomery Group.
00:40:02Are you really going to toss me aside for some nobody?
00:40:09Eliza, we're done here.
00:40:11Don't forget, our engagement was arranged by your grandfather.
00:40:15I can marry whoever I want.
00:40:17Well, that may be true for ordinary people, but you and I both know how this game is played.
00:40:22Our lives have been planned for us since birth.
00:40:25Why are you even hesitating?
00:40:28Am I not as good as that front desk receptionist that you've become so smitten with?
00:40:34She has nothing to do with this.
00:40:36Are you defending her?
00:40:37Ecologic's current success is entirely attributed to the Reid family's support.
00:40:42So, are you refusing me for some lowly hotel receptionist?
00:40:48I'm thankful for everything that you did for me.
00:40:51Oh, go to hell!
00:40:53Your company would have gone bankrupt long ago if I wasn't there to support it.
00:41:01You know, why won't you leave that woman?
00:41:05Why won't you leave that woman?
00:41:07I'm your fiancé, and I'm what's best for you.
00:41:14You're not very convincing.
00:41:20You will be mine.
00:41:29Wow, this place really screams money.
00:41:33Thank you for getting me in here, Stella.
00:41:35Without you, I never would have been able to be here.
00:41:38Thanks to my uncle, you can come anytime.
00:41:41I'm glad to have you by my side.
00:41:44Let me tell you some good news.
00:41:46Ms. Montgomery's returning to headquarters today.
00:41:48Maybe we can get my uncle to introduce us.
00:41:50That would be amazing.
00:41:52You've done more for me than Claire ever did.
00:41:54That bitch wouldn't even be able to get you these opportunities.
00:42:06Here, Klein.
00:42:08A new CFO heard about your return and has prepared an expensive gift.
00:42:11He'd like to see you at once.
00:42:13I don't have time. Please decline.
00:42:15Understood.
00:42:17Is the five billion dollar investment ready for Kane?
00:42:19It's ready. I'll go get it.
00:42:21I'll be right in.
00:42:23Kane, your loyalty is applicable.
00:42:25You have my unwavering support.
00:42:31Mr. Duncan, did Ms. Montgomery agree to meet me?
00:42:33She just got back and she's got a lot on her plate.
00:42:35Try some other time.
00:42:37Ms. Montgomery asked me to get the investor agreement.
00:42:40If you grab it yourself, you might be able to meet her.
00:42:42I'd be happy to.
00:42:44Don't make any mistakes.
00:42:46It's a very important document.
00:42:53Uncle Harry, I'm here.
00:42:55You two are in luck.
00:42:57Our CEO has just set up a five billion dollar investment agreement.
00:42:59It seems they're trying to make up for the little incident last night with Malik.
00:43:03Five billion dollars?
00:43:05For me? Is this real?
00:43:07For three years, Montgomery Group has been silently supporting you.
00:43:10This time, it's no different.
00:43:12Claire had to get involved.
00:43:14That bitch doesn't realize her little stunt got us even more investment money.
00:43:17Now that our CEO is back, you get a chance to meet them.
00:43:19Be polite. Make a good impression.
00:43:21Absolutely.
00:43:23Thank you for all your help.
00:43:25You know, when I'm successful,
00:43:26I won't forget your support.
00:43:28You two, wait here.
00:43:30Let me go get the investment agreement.
00:43:36So what if that bitch found another man?
00:43:38I'm going to be so rich,
00:43:40she's going to be begging to come back to me.
00:43:42The lad who sleeps her way to the top will never be a worthy opponent.
00:43:49Look what the cat dragged in.
00:43:51Still playing dress up, Claire?
00:43:53Well, at least I don't need a man to get me in the door.
00:43:57Stop bragging.
00:43:59This isn't ecologics.
00:44:01Your new boy toy won't be able to save you here.
00:44:03I'm sorry, are you forgetting that you're the one who cheated with my husband?
00:44:06Milo.
00:44:08You took time out of your day to come here?
00:44:10Are you trying to get back with me?
00:44:12It's not going to work.
00:44:14Don't be so self-centered.
00:44:16I'm here because I have work to do.
00:44:18Oh, are you having an affair with a security guard?
00:44:20You're disgusting.
00:44:22I'm VIP.
00:44:24Don't you dare touch me.
00:44:26You bitch.
00:44:28My Uncle Harry is CFO of Montgomery Group.
00:44:30I might just talk to him about you and you'll be fired.
00:44:32Wait.
00:44:34Harry Klein is your uncle?
00:44:36Yes.
00:44:38Are you scared?
00:44:40If Harry knew how you two have been treating me,
00:44:42you might actually fear him.
00:44:44Don't be ridiculous.
00:44:46We see through your lies.
00:44:47Didn't Cain humiliate you enough?
00:44:49We already know the truth.
00:44:51The real master backing Milo is not Cain.
00:44:53It's the CEO of Montgomery Group.
00:44:55By the way,
00:44:57Miss Montgomery already reinvested five billion dollars in my cancer testing research
00:45:00to make up for last night's loss.
00:45:02Really?
00:45:04I wasn't aware of that.
00:45:06Nobody cares about your lowly opinion.
00:45:08Milo, you're too stupid to deserve that investment.
00:45:10Once my research test results are out,
00:45:12I'm going to be a billionaire
00:45:14and you'll realize how foolish you were to doubt me.
00:45:15Well, I heard that investment isn't even for you.
00:45:17The cancer testing research is cutting edge technology.
00:45:20Who other than Milo deserves the five billion dollar investment?
00:45:23The five billion dollar investment is mine.
00:45:26I can give that money to whoever I want.
00:45:28You're saying it's yours?
00:45:30Are you trying to impersonate Miss Montgomery?
00:45:32I don't need to impersonate her.
00:45:34I am her.
00:45:36Once my uncle arrives,
00:45:38we'll see if you're still willing to lie about who you are.
00:45:40Harry is my subordinate.
00:45:42He has to listen to what I have to say.
00:45:43Brain dead.
00:45:45No one is dumb enough to pretend to be the Montgomery Group CEO
00:45:47while at headquarters.
00:45:49I didn't realize you started lying after our divorce.
00:45:51Do you know how ridiculous you look?
00:45:53Let me let you in on a little secret.
00:45:55That five billion dollar investment is a gift
00:45:58from Montgomery Group to Kane.
00:46:00It has nothing to do with you.
00:46:02Stop lying.
00:46:04All my progress over the years
00:46:06has been thanks to the Montgomery Group's unwavering support.
00:46:08Why would they stop now?
00:46:10Especially for someone like Kane.
00:46:11Joke's on you.
00:46:13Because guess what?
00:46:15I'm Claire Montgomery.
00:46:17And I've been pulling the strings all along.
00:46:21Yeah.
00:46:23Just because you have the same last name as her
00:46:25doesn't mean you're even in the same class.
00:46:27Keep dreaming.
00:46:29I've already investigated you.
00:46:31You have no connection to the Montgomery Group.
00:46:33You're just a hotel receptionist.
00:46:35Security, kick her out.
00:46:41If you touch her again, you'll have to answer to me.
00:46:46Beat it.
00:46:48Understood?
00:46:51Who let you in here?
00:46:53This is Montgomery Group headquarters.
00:46:55Did you get permission?
00:46:57Get your filthy hands off me.
00:46:59Hey, I'm a major investment here at the Montgomery Group, alright?
00:47:01You can't touch me.
00:47:03Are you okay?
00:47:05Of course.
00:47:07This is my turn.
00:47:09Milo, your cancer testing research is a complete farce.
00:47:11Montgomery Group has already stopped investing in you.
00:47:13You don't understand the science behind it.
00:47:15The CFO is about to arrive.
00:47:17If you try and sabotage my agreement,
00:47:19I'll file a police report.
00:47:21Don't be naive.
00:47:23Montgomery Group has already canceled all their investments in you.
00:47:25You're not going to fool me again.
00:47:27I secured the five billion dollar investment
00:47:29and I'm going to use that money to bankrupt Ecologics.
00:47:31What's all the fuss?
00:47:34Just in time.
00:47:37My investment agreement arrives.
00:47:42Uncle Harry, what's that?
00:47:44Well, this is the investment agreement
00:47:46that Ms. Montgomery ordered for Milo.
00:47:48This is all the evidence I need.
00:47:50That agreement is not for Milo.
00:47:52What are you two doing here?
00:47:54Who invited you?
00:47:56I was invited by Mr. Duncan.
00:47:58So now you're lying to get more investment opportunities?
00:48:00He's not lying. I invited him.
00:48:02Under what authority do you have to invite him?
00:48:04Harry, she's just my ex-wife.
00:48:06She's been trying to sabotage my career because she's angry.
00:48:08She even said that this investment agreement
00:48:09is for Cain and not me.
00:48:11This investment agreement was prepared
00:48:13by our CEO's executive assistant.
00:48:15It's honestly none of your business.
00:48:17You don't have to believe me.
00:48:19Just let Cain open it.
00:48:21You'll see.
00:48:23If this doesn't work, we're screwed.
00:48:25Don't worry. You can open it.
00:48:27Oh, and uh, Ben.
00:48:29I don't want anyone but Cain
00:48:31to have access to this agreement.
00:48:33I used the fingerprint scanner we have on file
00:48:35so he's the only one who can unlock the documents.
00:48:36I'll give you guys one chance to open it.
00:48:38If you can't,
00:48:40then I'll report you to the cops.
00:48:42What are you waiting for?
00:48:44Open it.
00:48:46Don't look at it.
00:48:49What if it doesn't open?
00:48:51This is Montgomery Group's gift to you.
00:48:53You can open it.
00:48:55He can't open it.
00:48:57Only someone supported by the Montgomery Group
00:48:59can open the briefcase.
00:49:01Watch.
00:49:03I can open it.
00:49:05You can try.
00:49:11All notifications denied.
00:49:15Impossible.
00:49:17I hear you. What's going on?
00:49:19It must be broken.
00:49:21Now let's have Cain try.
00:49:23He can't open it.
00:49:26Trust me, Cain.
00:49:28You can open it.
00:49:31Okay.
00:49:33It's nothing.
00:49:47For three years, Milo has been the protege
00:49:50of the Montgomery Group's CEO.
00:49:52This investment agreement was meant for him.
00:49:55No one else can open the briefcase.
00:49:57And what if Cain can't open it?
00:49:59Then I'll resign.
00:50:00I wouldn't be so sure if I were you.
00:50:02Cain, go ahead.
00:50:13All notifications successful.
00:50:21How did this happen?
00:50:23Impossible.
00:50:25It's been tampered with.
00:50:27Ben set this password.
00:50:28How did Cain open it?
00:50:30Take a look inside.
00:50:38Milo, it seems this agreement
00:50:40doesn't mention you anywhere.
00:50:43I guess Montgomery Group had no intention
00:50:45of investing in you after all.
00:50:49Harry, what's going on?
00:50:52The fingerprint scanner must be broken.
00:50:57Return that immediately.
00:50:59That is my gift to Cain.
00:51:01I don't care how you open the briefcase.
00:51:03You clearly have no authority
00:51:05to take the agreement.
00:51:07What is this ruckus in my building?
00:51:12What is this ruckus in my building?
00:51:14What is this ruckus in my building?
00:51:19This is Montgomery Group headquarters,
00:51:21not a nightclub.
00:51:23I'm sorry, Mr. Duncan.
00:51:25I don't know how Claire and Cain
00:51:27managed to open the briefcase.
00:51:29Mr. Duncan, it's a pleasure to meet you.
00:51:31My name is Milo Preston.
00:51:33You're the kid who developed
00:51:35the new cancer testing research.
00:51:37Yes, yes.
00:51:39All thanks to the support
00:51:41of the Montgomery Group.
00:51:43Yes, yes, and can I say
00:51:45what an honor it is to be supported
00:51:47by such a prestigious company.
00:51:49Did you hear that, bitch?
00:51:51Mr. Duncan just acknowledged
00:51:53that Milo is a favorite around here.
00:51:57Cain, go call your team
00:51:59and inform them of the divestment.
00:52:01Are you sure?
00:52:03I can handle this.
00:52:05I'll be back.
00:52:10Milo, take this.
00:52:12This is a gift
00:52:14from the Montgomery Group.
00:52:16I can't believe it.
00:52:18I've never received
00:52:20a $5 billion investment agreement before.
00:52:22Mr. Duncan, please,
00:52:24thank the Montgomery's for me.
00:52:26And I promise I'll finish
00:52:28my cancer testing research.
00:52:32Montgomery Group resources
00:52:34are not meant for lowlifes like you
00:52:36to do as you please.
00:52:38What the hell?
00:52:39I'm sorry.
00:52:41Here is the $5 billion agreement
00:52:43you asked me to prepare,
00:52:45Ms. Montgomery.
00:52:47Ms. Montgomery?
00:52:49No, Mr. Duncan,
00:52:51you don't understand.
00:52:53This is just a disgruntled ex-wife.
00:52:56Idiot.
00:52:58I'll give you a chance
00:53:00to meet Ms. Montgomery
00:53:02and this is how you treat her
00:53:04with such disrespect.
00:53:06What are you talking about?
00:53:07I don't ever want to see this person again.
00:53:13Escort him out.
00:53:16Ms. Montgomery,
00:53:18I didn't know. I'm sorry.
00:53:20You little shit, you ruined me.
00:53:27Mr. Duncan,
00:53:29I think there's a misunderstanding here.
00:53:31This bitch,
00:53:34this woman
00:53:35is just a regular hotel worker.
00:53:37All right?
00:53:39She has no authority here.
00:53:41You are so dense.
00:53:43The $5 billion investment money
00:53:45was given to me by the CEO
00:53:47of the Montgomery Group.
00:53:49Are you really going to go against their will for Claire?
00:53:51I'm not going against their will
00:53:53and I will remind you
00:53:55that your ex-wife is a public figure
00:53:57so I would warn you to be very careful.
00:53:59No, she's not.
00:54:01She's an ordinary woman
00:54:03that nobody wants.
00:54:06Who are you?
00:54:08I've already told you.
00:54:10Ben, please see our guest out.
00:54:15Don't touch me!
00:54:18We'll see ourselves out.
00:54:21Don't regret this.
00:54:31What's going on here?
00:54:33Well,
00:54:35this is a gift from Ben.
00:54:39A gift from Ben?
00:54:43Yes, originally
00:54:45the investment was intended for Milo.
00:54:49However,
00:54:51my CEO thought that his
00:54:53cancer testing research might be fake.
00:54:56So I took it upon myself
00:54:58to discuss with Ms. Montgomery
00:55:00about Milo's
00:55:02research.
00:55:05There's no way to detect
00:55:07blood cancer from a single drop of blood.
00:55:09So,
00:55:11I recommended your renewable energy projects
00:55:13to Ben for investment.
00:55:15I am grateful to Montgomery Group
00:55:17for your trust in me.
00:55:19You won't regret it.
00:55:27Ben,
00:55:29are you forgetting something?
00:55:30Forgetting something?
00:55:34This is an invitation
00:55:36to a gala celebrating the return
00:55:38of our mystery CEO.
00:55:40For me?
00:55:42Sure, absolutely.
00:55:44It's at our CEO's request.
00:55:46Please thank the CEO for this.
00:55:48Wow.
00:55:50Claire,
00:55:52would you like to be my plus one
00:55:54to the gala?
00:55:56Sure, why not?
00:56:00Ms. Montgomery,
00:56:02why have you not revealed
00:56:04your true identity to Kane?
00:56:06I need to make sure he doesn't
00:56:08have any red flags first.
00:56:10But I can't handle another Milo.
00:56:12Why is Ben helping her so much?
00:56:14Did Claire give him something?
00:56:16He listened to her like
00:56:18she had authority over him.
00:56:20Don't forget how manipulative
00:56:22she can be.
00:56:24You think she's manipulating him?
00:56:26She must be.
00:56:28Otherwise, why would Ben
00:56:31So, did you get the investment?
00:56:34No.
00:56:36Kane took it before I could.
00:56:38You're an idiot!
00:56:40It's fine.
00:56:42We still have a chance.
00:56:44The Montgomery Group CEO
00:56:46is hosting our gala
00:56:48the day after tomorrow night.
00:56:50And I have secured our entry.
00:56:52So, when the time comes,
00:56:54you will cooperate with me.
00:56:56I want Kane to understand
00:56:58that leaving me
00:57:00is not an option.
00:57:02Well, how?
00:57:07I want to see what happens.
00:57:17Why is that chair so different?
00:57:19It's the Montgomery throne.
00:57:21Whoever sits there will influence
00:57:23America's economy for the next 30 years.
00:57:25We'll never have that kind of power.
00:57:27I heard the CEO is in their 20s.
00:57:28It's the Montgomery Group.
00:57:30If a company's success is all they're doing,
00:57:32no one can replace them.
00:57:34Meeting the CEO is actually on my bucket list.
00:57:36Today's a rare opportunity.
00:57:38I have to leave a good impression.
00:57:48Who is she?
00:57:59I can't believe we're at such a high-end party
00:58:01to watch Milo's ex-wife show off.
00:58:03Stella, I could bankrupt you in a night.
00:58:06I'll kick you out.
00:58:08The Montgomery CEO
00:58:10is about to sit upon their throne
00:58:12and Milo will expose your scheme
00:58:14to embezzle the investment money.
00:58:16You'll go to jail.
00:58:18I already told you.
00:58:20I am Ms. Milo.
00:58:22You're a joke!
00:58:24Just a loser living
00:58:26in your own little fantasy world!
00:58:28Someone get this slut out of here.
00:58:30She's not invited.
00:58:32I agree.
00:58:34The CEO is arriving soon.
00:58:36Don't let this trash ruin the event.
00:58:38Get her out.
00:58:40Well, if I leave,
00:58:42then you all have no reason to be here.
00:58:44Someone get this bitch out of here.
00:58:46She's not invited.
00:58:48Who said she's not invited?
00:58:54Who said Claire doesn't have an invite?
00:58:56I have it right here.
00:58:58Let me guess.
00:59:00Ben gave you that invite?
00:59:04It's a genuine invite.
00:59:06I don't doubt that it's real.
00:59:10The question is,
00:59:12how does a broke loser like Claire
00:59:14convince Ben to customize one for her?
00:59:16Let me answer that for you.
00:59:18It's because Claire
00:59:20is Ben's little plaything.
00:59:23Claire, don't let him roll you over.
00:59:26I'm a genius.
00:59:28Montgomery's Analyze,
00:59:30they both believe in me
00:59:32and my revolutionary cancer testing research.
00:59:34I have millions in patents.
00:59:36I'm going to be so wealthy,
00:59:38you can't even imagine.
00:59:40You can't compete.
00:59:42Be careful what type of men you choose, Claire.
00:59:44You can't count on Cain and Ben
00:59:46to save your real CEO lives.
00:59:49Instead of worrying about me,
00:59:52you should focus on yourself.
00:59:54Your little game is finished.
00:59:57And your days of prosperity
00:59:59are coming to an end.
01:00:01Well, at least I won't have to look
01:00:03at your own wrinkly face every day.
01:00:07You disgust me.
01:00:09Then you better not beg for my forgiveness
01:00:11until you find out who I really am.
01:00:16Let me be straight with you.
01:00:18Aliza's connected me
01:00:20with two of the major shareholders
01:00:22of Montgomery Group.
01:00:24They're partners with the CEO.
01:00:26The truth is,
01:00:28I can't disobey their orders.
01:00:30And now that I have
01:00:32both the CEO and the two shareholders on my side,
01:00:34how long do you think
01:00:36Cain and Ben can protect you?
01:00:38You'll be begging me to take you back.
01:00:41You know what your biggest problem is?
01:00:43You take yourself way too seriously.
01:00:46Aliza's meeting with the shareholders
01:00:48as we speak.
01:00:50You and old man Ben's embezzlement
01:00:52of my investment funds
01:00:54is going to face justice.
01:00:56You embezzled the $5 billion investment?
01:00:59Exactly.
01:01:01Ben already handed over the funds to Cain.
01:01:03Has Ben lost his mind?
01:01:05How dare he misappropriate the funds
01:01:07while our CEO is away.
01:01:09Derek, we need to clean house
01:01:11for our CEO's return.
01:01:13Cain, you think your business is safe?
01:01:15If you want Ecologics to keep running,
01:01:18you'll have to marry me.
01:01:23Claire, what do you have
01:01:24going up your sleeve?
01:01:26What's wrong, Cain?
01:01:28Starting to doubt the Montgomery Group
01:01:30would invest $5 billion in you?
01:01:34If you admit your mistake,
01:01:36tear up the agreement Claire gave you,
01:01:38I'd be willing to tell the authorities
01:01:40you were coerced.
01:01:42God, you will say anything, won't you?
01:01:44This is your last chance, Cain.
01:01:52I trust Claire.
01:01:55Cain, don't you ever think
01:01:58about what you are doing.
01:02:00You are an idiot.
01:02:03You are just a pawn
01:02:05in Claire's sick little game.
01:02:07Do you really think
01:02:09that you're going to get that investment?
01:02:12Hey, my business is none of your concern.
01:02:15Wake up!
01:02:17Claire seduced you
01:02:19into accepting that $5 billion
01:02:21just so that she could
01:02:22drain it and disappear.
01:02:24But Cain,
01:02:26don't worry.
01:02:28I will clean this whole mess up,
01:02:30just as long as you promise
01:02:32to leave that woman.
01:02:34Don't insult Claire again
01:02:36or you'll regret it.
01:02:38Fine, if that's how you want to do this.
01:02:40But don't blame me
01:02:42when I pull all of my investments.
01:02:44And when Ecologics is in crisis,
01:02:46don't come begging.
01:02:48Well, there's no need
01:02:50to worry about that.
01:02:52Cain has already received
01:02:54a $5 billion investment
01:02:56from the Montgomery Group.
01:02:58So, he doesn't need your money anymore.
01:03:01So, you're Claire.
01:03:04You think you can steal Cain from me?
01:03:07Over my dead body?
01:03:10Cain and I have the freedom
01:03:12to marry whoever we want.
01:03:14You are just a hotel receptionist.
01:03:17Cain is way out of your league.
01:03:20How's am I?
01:03:23Whether I'm a hotel receptionist
01:03:25or a CEO,
01:03:27I have the freedom to do
01:03:29what makes me happy.
01:03:31What? What are you doing?
01:03:34Get away! Get away from there!
01:03:36You are going to get your filth
01:03:38all over the Montgomery throne.
01:03:45This throne
01:03:49is mine.
01:03:53She's lost it!
01:03:55She actually sat on the Montgomery throne!
01:03:57Get down from there right now!
01:04:00Please, this is the CEO's seat.
01:04:03We're going to get in trouble.
01:04:05Relax.
01:04:07I've got you covered.
01:04:09No one will mess with you here.
01:04:12You all heard that, right?
01:04:16This is who your energy king admires.
01:04:20Not only did she convince Cain
01:04:23to embezzle funds,
01:04:25but now she's impersonating
01:04:27Miss Montgomery.
01:04:29She's got some nerve
01:04:31on the day of our CEO's gala, no less.
01:04:33You are such a fraud.
01:04:35You know,
01:04:37impersonating Miss Montgomery
01:04:39and embezzling funds
01:04:41are both very serious crimes.
01:04:43I have the shareholders on their way
01:04:45right now to respond to you.
01:04:47You know, in the five years
01:04:48I've worked for the Montgomery Group,
01:04:50I've faced thousands of challenges.
01:04:52You're a little trickster.
01:04:54Hey!
01:04:56Who's causing all this noise?
01:04:58Gentlemen,
01:05:00there is a woman here
01:05:02who is impersonating Miss Montgomery.
01:05:04But don't worry,
01:05:06I'm about to have her kicked out.
01:05:08Who's impersonating Miss Montgomery?
01:05:10Hi, Sam.
01:05:12Hi, Derek.
01:05:15Long time no see.
01:05:18Eliza?
01:05:20Is she the one you're claiming
01:05:22is impersonating Miss Montgomery?
01:05:24Uh, yes.
01:05:26Somehow, she convinced Ben
01:05:28to embezzle the $5 billion that was spent on Lilo.
01:05:30Please,
01:05:32help me get my investment back
01:05:34and punish her.
01:05:36Shut up.
01:05:39There's got to be
01:05:41some kind of mistake here.
01:05:43She's the imposter!
01:05:45I know exactly who she is.
01:05:46Greetings, Miss Montgomery.
01:05:52What?
01:05:55Claire
01:05:57is Miss Montgomery.
01:05:59Listen up.
01:06:01This
01:06:03is Miss Montgomery
01:06:05of Montgomery Group.
01:06:07The richest person
01:06:09on the continent.
01:06:11Disrespect her
01:06:13and you're going against the entire company.
01:06:15Claire, what's going on?
01:06:17Are you really the CEO?
01:06:19I should have told you sooner, Cain,
01:06:21but
01:06:23past experiences made me cautious.
01:06:26But now I can confidently say to you,
01:06:29I am Claire Montgomery,
01:06:31the CEO of Montgomery Group.
01:06:36Impossible.
01:06:38She can't be the CEO.
01:06:40She's just a hotel worker,
01:06:42a woman I left behind!
01:06:44Watch your mouth.
01:06:46I won't hesitate to bury you myself.
01:06:56Cain, you told me you were the CEO.
01:06:59I told you the funds were for me,
01:07:01that your success was built on my resources.
01:07:04But did you believe me?
01:07:06No.
01:07:08I don't want to see this person anymore.
01:07:11I'm sorry.
01:07:13Okay, I was wrong.
01:07:15Please take me back.
01:07:17Let's start over.
01:07:19Milo, you're choosing her over me?
01:07:21Shut up!
01:07:23You've ruined me.
01:07:25This is all your fault.
01:07:27Claire,
01:07:29my cancer testing research is just about to launch.
01:07:31Please, please, there's going to be huge returns.
01:07:33Please take me back.
01:07:35Here's the feasibility report for your research.
01:07:40It's a scam.
01:07:43A dream you've spun for yourself.
01:07:47It's over.
01:07:49Milo Preston,
01:07:52you're under arrest
01:07:54for fraud and illegally obtaining funds.
01:07:58You're under arrest
01:08:00for fraud and illegally obtaining funds.
01:08:02You're under arrest
01:08:04for fraud and illegally obtaining funds.
01:08:07You could have been a renowned entrepreneur with Claire.
01:08:11I threw it all away.
01:08:13Yeah, you two are going to wait a really long time.
01:08:15Come on.
01:08:21I thought that you were willing to
01:08:23throw it all away for your so-called freedom.
01:08:26It turns out that you were just in it for the money.
01:08:27Your understanding of love is shallow.
01:08:34Wealth is the least of Claire's qualities.
01:08:38She's kind, optimistic.
01:08:40She treats everyone equal, regardless of their status and their wealth.
01:08:46That's what I love most about her.
01:08:49So you're saying, I don't have any redeeming qualities?
01:08:53Everyone has redeeming qualities, including you.
01:08:56But love is to surrender in a free way.
01:09:01Love is simply love.
01:09:07Cain, I've never heard you talk that way about anybody.
01:09:11Oh, well, I give up.
01:09:15Love is the most important thing in a marriage, and it's obvious that you two have that.
01:09:23Allow me to reintroduce myself.
01:09:29Cain Hudson, Stanford grad, founder of Ecologics.
01:09:34Claire Montgomery, CEO of Montgomery Group.
01:09:39Divorced.
01:09:41Well, time is of the essence.
01:09:44I never wanted to go along with the arranged marriage my grandfather and I had.
01:09:50I choose to marry the woman I truly love, Ms. Montgomery.
01:09:56Will you marry me?
01:09:58Well, Mr. Hudson, only there were roses here, I might actually consider.
01:10:11Surprise!
01:10:14I made it happen.
01:10:19You may now kiss the bride.
