Then keep him happy the company is

saved. As my daughter, this is your job.

>> No way. I'm not becoming that old

creep's mistress. But what else can I

do?

Oh, I'm so sorry.

>> Damn, these pecs.

>> What exactly are you doing?

>> You're lucky he has a thing for virgins.

It's the only reason you're worth

anything.

>> If I'm not a virgin anymore, Dad's plan

is dead.

>> Excuse me.

Are you single?

>> I am.

>> Then care for a drink.

>> Miss,

>> I should probably warn you

>> about what?

The powder in this wine hasn't even

dissolved yet.

>> Be more careful next time.

>> Oh, Kai, you scared me.

Guess what? Those two are my cheating ax

and my stepsister.

>> What a coincidence.

That piece of work is my nephew.

>> What? Wait,

>> what?

>> Wait. You're Kai's uncle?

>> I am.

>> No. No. Uncle, I'm so sorry. I didn't

mean to. This is all so messed up. I

just need to go.

Oh my god. I just slept with my ex's

uncle.

But if that jerk is screwing my

stepsister,

me screwing his uncle feels kind of

amazing.

Wait, what is wrong with me?

Dad,

>> who did you give that drink to?

I don't know him.

>> You shameless [ __ ]

>> You'd rather sleep with a stranger THAN

SAVE MY COMPANY. YOU HEARTLESS MONSTER.

>> You were willing to sell me to a creep

just to save your business. And you call

yourself a father?

>> Shut up, you [ __ ]

I've frozen all your accounts. Since

you're so disobedient, you can rot in

the streets.

Oh my god. Is that my dear sister? Why

are you on the ground like a stray dog?

None of your business.

>> I know you screwed up dad's mission. You

know why dad only ever loved me? Because

you and your dead mother are both

idiots. Don't you dare talk about my

mother. You're just a penniles homeless

girl now. Better go check the dumpsters

for dinner.

None of my job replies have replied.

What am I going to do? I'm running out

of money.

>> Hello. Is this Melody?

>> Yes. speaking.

>> Miss Melody, I'm from Cedar Group. The

CEO has reviewed your resume and thinks

you're perfect for the assistant

position. Can you come in tomorrow?

>> Yes, absolutely. Thank you so much.

>> Melody Baker, right?

>> Hello. Yes. Chigilo,

the CEO is in a meeting. This is his

office. He wants you to wait inside.

>> Okay. Thank you.

>> We meet again.

>> Hi.

You You're the CEO of Cedar.

Correct.

>> Kai said his uncle was a billionaire,

but this is insane.

>> Melody Baker, you drugged me, then

ditched me halfway, leaving me to

suffer. Don't you think you deserve a

little punishment,

>> Mr. Smith? I

>> Mr. Smith, we just finished the third

version of the European expansion plan.

I've emailed it over. Mr. Smith, is the

proposal still not right?

>> It sounds fine. I'll check the details

later. I'm busy right now. You can go.

Understood. Let me know if you have any

feedback.

>> Mr. Smith, did you hire me on purpose?

>> I found out you were applying

>> while I was looking into you, but

honestly, your resume was the best one

anyway. You looked into me. Why?

>> That night was unforgettable.

I wanted to see if I could make you

mine. I

>> I admit you're charming, but we can't.

You're my ex's uncle.

>> So what?

>> I regret something.

>> What do you regret?

>> Saying we can't because you're my ex's

uncle. I'm taking it back.

>> Apology accepted. But before that, I

still have to finish punishing you for

your little stunt at the party.

>> And how do you plan on punishing me?

>> Lovely evening, isn't it? It truly is.

You two look wonderful.

>> Thanks for joining us.

>> Always a pleasure to see you.

>> I can imagine, though, I'd say this

venue is worth trading a few late nights

for. You're not wrong. and we're just

glad to be among friends tonight.

Excuse me, I need to go greet someone.

Do enjoy the party. Our distinguished

guest is here.

This is my uncle, August Smith. He's the

founder of Cedar Group.

>> Mr. Smith, thanks for coming. Kai is a

great young man. I'm thrilled to have

him in the family.

>> Mr. Baker, you certainly have quite a

daughter.

Inside

my

in

Melody, you look different today. Did

you dress up just for me? Trying to get

my attention?

>> Are you having a fever dream?

>> My engagement to Lydia is a done deal.

But if you're still craving me, I might

be able to find some time for you.

>> And how do you plan on punishing me?

I actually prepared some interesting

toys for you. Since Kai invited you to

the party,

why don't we play a little game?

Oh, well, I did start this by messing

with you. I guess this is only fair.

Get lost.

Go be in heat with your fianceé.

>> It's a pleasure to meet you, sir. The

pleasure is all mine.

>> Thank you. I

>> almost twisted an ankle, did you?

Careful, miss. Those heels of yours look

tricky.

>> Yes, exactly.

>> Hi. Are you the bride's sister or just a

friend?

>> Well, sort of. We share a father.

>> Oh, I see. Well, you look absolutely

stunning. Are you here alone?

>> Thank you. Yes, I'm by myself.

>> Your face is a little flushed. Are you

feeling okay?

>> I'm fine. I I just

>> It might just be too stuffy in here. Oh,

definitely, sir. I agree. They should

crank up the AC. Do you agree that lower

would be better, miss?

>> Yes, much better.

>> How about some chilled wine?

Careful.

Oh, sir, you got some on your cuff.

Thanks for the heads up. I'll go take

care of it.

This necklace is a treasure I've kept

for years. Designed by the master Lily.

It's set with top class Burmese rubies

and diamonds. I'm giving this to you as

an engagement gift, my dearest daughter.

Happy engagement.

No, put it down.

This was my mother's favorite piece. How

dare you give that heirloom to that

BITCH'S DAUGHTER?

>> YOU BRAT. HOW DARE YOU YELL AT ME. I AM

YOUR FATHER. GET OFF THE STAGE.

>> MELODY, your mom didn't make it to my

party. So, let's just say dad is giving

me her blessing on her behalf. Isn't

that nice?

>> You dared to hit me.

>> You think my mother would bless you?

You, the bastard born from my father's

affair.

You, the trash I caught wearing my

pajamas and screwing my boyfriend in my

own bed. Oh my god. Is that true?

>> Shut up.

>> Why should I shut up? You're the ones

who did those disgusting things.

Did you really think I'd stay silent

forever?

>> SHUT UP. SHUT UP.

YOU [ __ ]

Your mother is dead. You think you still

have a say? Dad belongs to us now and

her jewelry belongs to us too.

>> Give me

mine now.

Woohoo!

Give it back.

Still trying to cause a scene. I know

you're still obsessed with my fianceé.

That's why you dressed like this, to get

his attention and came up here acting

like a psycho.

>> Lydia, just taking the necklace back

isn't enough. Since this [ __ ] dressed

up specifically to seduce me, maybe we

should just strip her.

>> Exactly. If she wants to act like a

[ __ ] let's treat her like one.

What are you doing?

living God.

Let her go.

Uh, Uncle August, please, please calm

down. You dared to treat her like this?

>> My god, Mr. Smith is pulling a gun on

his own nephew for her. What's the deal

between them?

He actually came to my rescue. He's

really taking my side.

>> I won't do it again. I I SWEAR I'm

sorry,

>> Uncle August. It's not what it looks

like. Melody tried to steal the

engagement gift dad gave me. We were

just That is my mother's heirloom. You

don't deserve to even touch it.

>> Give it to me.

Uncle, you two.

You've got to be kidding me. This is

incest.

Watch your mouth. She has nothing to do

with you. If there's a next time, the

bullet won't miss. It'll be in your

skin.

>> Now, every one of you, delete those

recordings immediately.

If I see a single photo or a second of

video leaked, the Cedar Group legal team

will come down on you with everything

we've got.

>> How is this possible? No, it can't be.

>> He saw me at my absolute worst. I wonder

what he thinks of me now. He looks so

grim. Is he annoyed that everyone knows

about us now? Does he think I'm just a

burden?

>> Have they always treated you like this?

>> I'm used to it.

>> Let me help you take the toy out first.

Melody, I didn't know Uncle August

trained you to be such a [ __ ] bringing a

toy to the party. I guess you'll have to

compensate me for everything I missed

out on.

>> It's okay. I can do it myself.

>> Go take care of it in the restroom, then

I'll drive you back to your apartment.

>> I I need some time alone. I'll go back

by myself.

>> There's no way I'm letting you go home

like this. At least let me get you back

safely. Okay,

>> fine.

Go get the car from the garage. I'll

meet you at the entrance after I'm done.

I just want to leave.

>> Fine. Call me if anything happens. See

you at the entrance.

Oh, come on. Why is it pouring now? Am I

really going to have a proc and call

August?

Melody, where are you? I'm coming to get

you.

>> I'm sorry.

I'm at

>> Melody. What's wrong?

>> Melody, what's wrong? Melody.

Let me go. What are you doing? Let me go

or August will kill you.

>> Cut the act. You only became my uncle's

mistress to get close to me, didn't you?

>> In your dreams.

Carter, get all the guards. Start

searching everywhere. White Hotel is the

center and track Kai and the Baker's

movements.

>> I know you regret missing out. The

party's over and I've sent Lydia home. I

can sleep with you right now. I'll even

let you be my mistress.

>> Get off me. August is coming for me.

>> Stop lying. He ditched you and went

home. You're just a toy to him. Nothing

more. Don't think you can depend on him.

He has no kids. I'm his only heir. I'm

the one who's GOING TO BE THE

BILLIONAIRE.

>> MELODY,

wait for me.

>> What? How the [ __ ] did he find us?

>> August, help me, August.

Uncle August, please. I'm sorry. I

messed up. It'll never happen again. I

swear. Please, just let me go.

August, stop. Don't kill him. He's not

worth going to jail for.

>> Uncle,

when my parents died, you promised them

you'd look after me.

>> This is my second warning. It's also

your last.

Don't be scared. You're in my home now.

No one can hurt you here. You're safe.

>> His arms are so warm. He saved me. I'm

finally safe.

>> Go take a hot bath. Okay.

I'll be right outside. If you need

anything, just call me.

From now on, I will always protect you.

I promise.

>> Baby, my god. What happened to you?

>> It was Melody.

>> What? Melody did this to you?

>> She was pissed about the party, so she

had my uncle's goons jump me. They said

it themselves. Melody wanted it to teach

me a lesson.

>> Melody, I'm going to tell Dad. She's

about to find out what a real lesson

looks like.

>> You're awake. How are you feeling,

>> August?

Last night I

>> You fell asleep while I was drying your

hair. I carried you to bed.

Oh, right. Thank you. Wait, today's

Monday. Am I late?

>> Relax. Your boss is right here. I've

already handled your lease. You're

staying here now. And don't worry about

work. I'm giving you some time off. Just

rest.

>> August. I'm fine. I don't need more

rest.

>> Then go do something else to unwind.

I have an invite to a charity auction,

but it clashes with my press conference.

Want to go? Here's the catalog. See if

anything catches your eye.

I don't really

>> Melody, what is it?

>> These ruby earrings. They match the

necklace. They were my mom's coming of

age gift. My dad kept them after the

divorce. Is he really selling them just

cuz I got the necklace back?

>> Use my card. Bid whatever it takes. No

limit. If you see anything else you

like, get that, too.

>> I

>> My conference starts in an hour. I have

to run. See you tonight.

>> He moves me in, gives me his card, but

never says what we are. Does he just

want me to be his kept woman?

Thank you.

Rare and magnificent. A truly

one-of-a-kind treasure.

>> Are you all right, miss?

>> Oh, I'm fine. Thank you.

>> You look ill. Let me take you somewhere

to rest.

>> No, thanks. I'm okay.

Miss, you really don't look well. You

need a doctor.

>> Don't touch me. I have to stay for my

mother's jewelry.

>> I have a private doctor right here.

It'll only take a minute and then you

can come right back.

>> Where is this?

>> You will find out where this is.

Look at where we are. What do you think

I'm going to do?

>> Don't try anything.

>> What do you want? Let me go.

>> Stop struggling and be obedient.

I hate having to get violent before the

game even starts.

>> Don't push me.

>> A game? No. Let me out.

>> Stop fighting, you stupid girl. Take a

look at what's in store for you.

>> Who the hell are you? You've got a lot

OF NERVE. YOU HAVE ANY IDEA WHO? SHE WAS

TELLING THE TRUTH.

>> I am August Smith. What? She was telling

the truth. Mr. Smith, PLEASE FORGIVE ME.

I HAD NO IDEA SHE WAS YOURS. IT WAS HER

FATHER. HE TOLD ME I COULD DO WHATEVER I

WANTED WITH HER. IT'S NOT MY FAULT.

>> You actually dared to use these things

on her. I'm going to show you a kind of

torture that makes hell look like a

playground.

>> NO, MR. SMITH, PLEASE. I DIDN'T TOUCH

HER. SHE'S FINE. SHE'S STILL PURE.

PLEASE LET ME GO. I'LL GIVE YOU MY

SHARES. MY WHOLE COMPANY.

You know what to do. Don't let him die.

I want him awake for every second of it.

>> Understood, sir. It's almost time. Patel

isn't here yet. Did Melody fail to

satisfy him yesterday?

>> Impossible. That drink was deliberately

tampered with to break her down. Lydia

saw her drink it. She'll be left utterly

desperate.

>> Look, he's here.

Mr. and Mrs. Baker, I presume.

>> Yes.

>> Pleasure to meet you. I'm Ethan Patel.

I'm here on behalf of my brother.

>> Oh, it's an honor.

I assume your brother must be exhausted

from yesterday, right?

>> Yes, exactly.

Here are the contracts. If you could

just sign here.

My brother made those promises. Why

would I be the one signing?

>> Sir, what do you mean? We had a deal

with Mr. Patel. Are you backing out?

>> Oh, I forgot to mention. I'm afraid you

won't find him to sign anything. He

disappeared from the Coral Hotel

yesterday. Maybe he decided to retire to

the countryside. Who knows? We respect

his privacy. What?

>> He's missing. Is it Could it be?

As of last night, with Cedar's support,

his shares and position were transferred

to me. Since he has no heirs, it was a

smooth transition.

I don't know what you and my brother

were up to, but thanks for being stupid

enough to cross Mr. Smith.

His company belongs to me now.

As for your company, it's a lost cause.

Sir, here are the materials for the

bidding the day after tomorrow.

>> You were calling me daddy this morning.

>> I thought I thought you'd prefer to keep

our relationship private at the office.

>> That's what I wanted to talk about. But

more importantly, how are you feeling?

Any discomfort at all?

>> That's the fifth time you've asked

today. I've been resting for 3 days. I'm

perfectly fine.

>> Careful. Someone might walk in.

>> Who would dare enter my office without

permission?

>> If it meant leaving your current post,

would you be willing to transfer to a

department that doesn't report to me or

even leave the company? I'd happily fund

your own business.

>> Why?

>> Given everything that's happened, it's

time we officially went public.

But if you keep working directly under

me, it'll just cause rumors.

>> Go public

or

what relationship exactly?

>> You're still not sure? Oh, I'm sorry. I

I thought I'd made my intentions clear.

That's on me. I should be more direct.

>> Our relationship is, of course. Leave it

at the door,

>> August. It's fine. I'll just bring it in

at the door.

Fine. It's at the door. I booked that

friend's place you love. Let's celebrate

the bit after work, just the two of us.

>> Have you thought about your future at

the company?

>> I think I still need a little more time

to think.

>> Take your time.

>> I'm off to Switzerland for 5 days. We

can talk when I'm back. For now, I have

a gift for you.

My mother's earrings.

I thought someone else bought them.

>> They did?

But I tracked down the buyer and made

her an offer she couldn't refuse.

>> Thank you, honey.

>> I just want you to be happy.

>> I am so so happy.

>> You what? You want me to go beg my uncle

for mercy? My company is dying. We lost

Patel's money and we're probably facing

retaliation from Cedar Group.

>> That's because you guys are useless. How

could you SCREW THIS UP?

>> KAI, HOW DARE YOU TALK TO my father like

that? You were the one who told us your

uncle didn't care about Melody.

>> Huh?

>> I didn't suggest pimping her out. And

you idiots let her get rescued. If Patel

had already broken her, my uncle would

have tossed her like trash.

>> Damn it. I can't believe that [ __ ] got

August to go that far for her.

>> Jealous, aren't you? Fine, go seduce

August yourself. You only seduced me to

steal what your sister liked anyway. You

think I don't know?

Jealous, aren't you? Fine, go seduce

August yourself. You only seduced me to

steal what your sister liked anyway. You

think I don't know?

>> You're so shameless. You're the one who

cheated with me. But you're right. I

should have gone for August. He's rich,

handsome, and devoted. Worth a thousand

of you.

Shut the [ __ ] up. You useless idiots

have no right to blame me. I'll destroy

that [ __ ] Melody myself once I inherit

August's money. Don't even think about

crawling back.

He should be boarding by now. I'll text

him once he lands in Switzerland.

What are you doing?

Are you insane?

You're the one who's insane, you

shameless spy.

We lost the bid an hour ago because you

leaked our proposal to Cruise Group.

I leaked it.

You've got to be kidding. I haven't even

seen the full document. Weren't you in

charge of this project? Yes, but as

August assistant, you're the only one

with access to his computer.

It wasn't me or August, so it had to be

you.

Why is she framing me? Is she using me

as a scapegoat? Or did someone tell her

about me in August?

Nothing to say, huh? Security guard,

grab her.

Wait, that's the weakest logic I've ever

heard. You're arresting me based on a

hunch? Where's the evidence?

Search her desk.

Oh my god. Isn't that our proposal? She

actually copied it onto her own flash

drive.

So, she really is a mole for cruise

group. Thank god Clark found out.

You planted that on my drive to frame

me?

How ridiculous. Why would I sabotage

months of my own work just to frame you?

Clark's right. Why would she betray

Cedar? I knew something was off about

this new assistant from the start.

That's disgusting. Leaking trade secrets

could cost the company a fortune. When

the CEO gets back, she's dead meat.

>> August, will you doubt me, too?

Will you think I drugged you that night

just to steal your secrets?

Hey, you think she's obsessed with the

boss and tried to shrink Clark? I mean,

everyone knows Clark and the CEO are the

perfect match.

I think you nailed it.

You [ __ ] You think August will protect

you after this? He'll want you dead.

>> Break her legs so she can't run.

>> Stop.

Mrs. Clark, what exactly are you doing?

>> I should be asking you that. Are you

protecting a spy who sold out our

company?

>> Miss Baker is the CEO's assistant. This

should wait until the CEO returns.

Carter, you're just an executive

assistant. Who gave you the right to

question a vice president?

>> The CEO.

>> The CEO values efficiency.

I'm sure he'd want me to deal with this

mole now instead of waiting. Get him out

of here.

>> NO, YOU CAN'T DO THIS.

Stop it, Clark. YOU'RE GOING TO REGRET

THIS.

>> WOW, CARTER, you're awfully desperate.

Did you two sleep together? Is she your

little secret on the side?

>> You

August,

>> you're hurt. I'm taking you to the

hospital right now.

>> I'm okay. August, please believe me. I

August, don't believe this [ __ ] She

leaked our secrets and cost us the bid.

>> What did you say?

She secretly copied the proposal from

your computer and leaked it to Cruz

Group.

>> So, you're saying Melody took this job

just to get access to my computer and

steal secrets for Cruz?

>> Exactly. This calculating [ __ ] had an

ulterior motive from the very beginning.

August, I'm the only one who would never

betray you.

>> Shameless.

Exactly. She used your trust to betray

the whole company. It's absolutely

shameless.

>> I was talking about you.

>> You believe me?

>> What does this mean? Has this [ __ ]

blinded you so much that you'd sacrifice

the company?

>> Oh my god. Did you hear that? Is Clark

saying the CEO and Melody are involved?

Did she steal his secrets and play with

his feelings?

>> Since you're so concerned about the

company,

>> Carter, notify the board and all

executives. Meeting in room one in 15

minutes.

>> Yes, sir.

>> The company will provide a formal

response shortly. Until then, anyone

caught spreading rumors will be fired

and sued immediately.

We have time. I'll have my doctor tend

to your wounds first.

>> So, August finally realized Melody is

the mole after all.

>> Sir, everyone is here. Let's start.

We have a mole.

Is it her?

>> Yes, it's her.

>> What's the rush, Clark?

An hour ago, we lost a bid to Cruise

Group by the narrowest of margins.

Are you saying this loss was the result

of a leak?

Exactly. Clear there was a leak. A

proposal that should only be seen by me

and Clark was found on this drive. It's

clear there was a leak. And Clark, you

agree with that, right?

>> Correct. Baker leaked it. This drive

found in her desk is

>> What no one knows is that after I

finalized the proposal, I changed the

page margin on page 5 from 250 to 2.51

cm before sending it to Clark. It's an

invisible difference, but a precaution I

always take.

>> Impressive. our CEO always one step

ahead.

>> What?

>> So

if the margin on page 5 is 2.51,

it proves this file didn't come from my

computer. It means you copied it from

your own.

It really is 2.51.

Clark, I can't believe the mole was you.

You're a VP. Why betray us? How much did

Cruz pay you off?

>> No, it wasn't me. There must be a

mistake.

>> Sir, I have Clark's laptop right here.

To make things clear, let's check the

original file on Clark's computer.

>> No, it wasn't me. It was her. She stole

it from my computer.

>> Did you forget the camera outside your

office? Should I pull the footage now to

see if Melody ever went inside?

I actually got a leak alert yesterday. I

hadn't pinned it on you yet, but I

wasn't in the dark.

You really underestimated our security.

Clark,

>> if you got an alert, didn't you ever

suspect Baker was the mole?

>> I didn't.

>> Oh, I forgot.

That land you helped Cruz win is

geologically impossible to develop.

Cruz probably hates you more than I do

right now.

>> What? That's impossible.

>> My survey team confirmed it yesterday.

That terrain can't support any real

development.

>> You didn't tell me. Do you realize how

much the company would have lost if we'd

won?

>> Cedar can afford the risk to catch a

traitor. And you walked right into the

trap, didn't you,

>> August? I don't believe it. YOU BARELY

KNOW THAT, [ __ ] HOW COULD YOU TRUST

HER? I AM THE ONLY ONE WHO DESERVES to

be with you. Only me.

I'm sorry. I was careless. I didn't

realize her next move was to target you.

If Carter hadn't messaged me before I

boarded, I

>> don't apologize. You were right on time

as always. My superhero,

August, thank you for believing in me.

>> I've had something ready for a while.

I was waiting for the right moment,

but I don't want to wait anymore.

What is it?

>> I know this is sudden and the setting is

plain. No flowers or music. It's not

romantic, but please forgive my restless

heart. I can't wait another second for

your answer. I'm asking for your hand.

Melly Baker, will you be my wife? Will

you stay by my side and walk with me

until the very end?

>> I I will. Of course I will. More than

anything,

>> the wedding will be romantic. I promise.

>> I'll hold you to that.

But you rushed back. What about

Switzerland?

>> Don't worry. I'll reschedule. Let's

settle this first.

>> August. I don't think Clark just did it

for money.

>> It feels like someone told her about us

to provoke her.

>> I agree. And

I think I know exactly who that person

is.

>> I want you.

>> Who is this? Let me go.

Who the hell is this? Get off me.

You shameless prick. You dared to scam

our CEO into buying useless land. You're

lucky he's letting you live, huh?

I've cut the trip to 3 days. I leave

tomorrow. Stay home while I'm gone. Stay

safe and wait for me.

>> Okay. And I have an answer about my

future plans.

>> What is it?

>> I'm taking back what's rightfully mine.

>> Miss Baker, a couple at the gate claims

to be your parents. They're demanding to

see you.

>> Tell the guards not to let them in.

>> Yes, ma'am.

I'll say it one last time. We are Mr.

Smith's future in-laws. Kneel and

apologize now while you still can or

you'll regret it. Yes, sir. Understood.

See, I told you. You should have just

let us in. Scared now, aren't you? Kneel

and apologize and I might go easy on

you.

>> Darling, what if Melody snaps at me? You

know how she's always hated me and

Lydia? She used to be so cruel and now

that she's with Mr. Smith,

>> she wouldn't dare as long as I'm here.

>> You're so good to me. For your sake, I

can handle any amount of abuse.

>> You're always so thoughtful, dear.

>> Why the [ __ ] are you still standing

there? Open the gate.

>> Miss Baker says you are not allowed in.

>> What did you say?

>> How dare she?

>> No, she wouldn't have the guts. This

guard is JUST LYING. HE'S PLAYING GAMES.

>> SIR, take one more step and we'll be

forced to use physical restraint.

>> GET OUT OF MY WAY. ONCE I SEE MY

DAUGHTER, I'LL HAVE YOU ALL FIRED.

YOU'LL BE BEGGING FOR MERCY LIKE DOGS.

STOP.

MELODY, look at these guards. They're

out of control. Hasn't Mr. Smith taught

them any manners?

>> I meant you. Stop. I'm the one who told

them to keep you out.

>> What? You

>> What do you want?

>> Mr. Smith isn't home, right? I heard he

left for Switzerland 2 days ago.

>> Correct. Your intel is actually up to

date for once. Is that why you finally

had the nerve to show up?

>> Look, the company is in trouble. I

suspect Mr. Smith is behind it. I want

you to talk to him. Tell him to stop.

And well, some financial support

wouldn't hurt either. Dad, how can you

be so utterly shameless?

>> What did you say?

>> Forgot why August is hargoning you? Let

me remind you. You drugged your own

daughter to sell her to a pervert just

to save your business.

>> I But but you didn't get hurt, did you?

If anything, it made him cherish you

even more, right?

>> Shut up.

And it's not your company. It was my

mother's. You stole it from her.

seems your business troubles haven't

kept you busy enough, Mr. Baker.

>> Good afternoon, Mr. Smith.

I was hoping to share some good news,

but you don't seem very interested.

>> Good news. Are you going to help us?

I I knew you'd go easy on Melody's

father. You've always been generous.

>> Oh, no. I'm here to tell you that your

company just went bankrupt. Everything's

been liquidated. There's no turning

back.

>> What? You're joking, right? This This is

impossible. I don't waste time joking

with people like you. Go home and see

for yourself.

>> Congratulations.

The company is finally back to its

rightful owner.

>> Thank you, August.

I could never have done this without

you. My father's company isn't his at

all. It was my mother's family business.

After my grandpa died, he tricked my

sick mom into handing it over. When they

divorced, he used my custody to steal

her remaining shares.

>> No wonder. I remember it being a decent

company, but it fell apart in just a few

years.

That's what happens when a piece of

trash runs things.

>> Yeah.

Mom felt as long as she had me, it was

enough. But life wasn't kind.

She died when I was 12 and I had to go

back to my father.

Those years were pure misery.

>> So, you want to take back what belonged

to your mother?

>> Yes. I need your help.

>> Of course. I'll give you whatever you

want. It's my pleasure. I have some

excellent wine in the cellar. Shall we

celebrate?

>> I'd love to.

Stop it. This is my house. How dare you

do this? I'm calling the police.

>> Go ahead.

>> Stop. What are YOU DOING? WHO GAVE YOU

PERMISSION TO ENTER A PRIVATE RESIDENCE?

THIS IS ROBBERY.

>> DID you forget? When you signed that

deal with our boss, you put this villa

up as collateral. You lost the bet. Your

company is bankrupt and we're here to

collect.

>> What? How am I the last to KNOW MY

COMPANY IS BANKRUPT? YOU MUST BE LYING.

>> Still dreaming? Everyone knows a

mysterious billionaire bought your

company out the second it hit

bankruptcy. Now get lost and stop

sitting in the way or I'll throw you out

with the rest of the trash.

>> No, this is all JUST A NIGHTMARE. IT

CAN'T be real.

>> Henry, are those debt collectors? They

look terrifying.

>> Run. Move.

>> Damn it. What's wrong with this door? I

can't stand this place. I never expected

all my accounts to be frozen. I have a

large sum of cash stashed away, but I

definitely can't touch it. It'd have to

be reserved for emergency.

>> Who could do this so fast? They didn't

leave us any way out. That buyer, was it

Mr. Smith? All this just to get revenge

for Melody?

>> What the hell are you making ALL THIS

NOISE? SHUT UP AND LET A PERSON GET SOME

PEACE. What the hell are you guys doing

here?

>> You prick. Didn't you say we'd never be

on your level? Look at you now rotting

in a dump like this.

>> Keep it together. I can still use them.

If I had to guess, you're in this mess

because of my uncle and Melody, right?

Whatever happened between us is in the

past. Right now, we have a common enemy.

>> What are you getting at?

>> We work together. Once I get my hands on

Uncle August's fortune, I'll give you a

third. And I'll still marry Lydia.

>> Talk is cheap. Everyone wants a piece of

that fortune. What makes you think you

can actually get it?

>> As long as Uncle August and Melody

aren't married, I'm still his soul heir.

So if he dies before the wedding,

everything he owns becomes my

inheritance.

All of it.

>> Finally finished the handover. I am

officially taking a few days off.

>> Where too? I'll take some time off to go

with you.

>> Let me think.

Huh? Why is the floor wet? The roof was

a bit dirty this morning, so I had the

detailing crew come by.

>> Can I drive tonight? It's been ages

since I've been behind the wheel.

>> Sure.

>> The brake pedal is completely soft. It

It doesn't feel right at all.

>> Get out of the car.

If we had driven out of here, we would

have been in a massive accident. So,

>> someone is trying to kill us. But who?

>> Don't be afraid. I've got you.

Carter, bring the car from garage no 3

to the parking lot immediately. Don't

let anyone see you.

We have some breaking news. A horrific

accident occurred on Oak Road. Two

individuals were rushed to Maple

Hospital where one male was pronounced

dead. Sources suggest the victim may be

August Smith, CEO of Cedar Group.

>> I'M A BILLIONAIRE. I'M RICH.

>> We did it. Honey, let's get to Maple

Hospital right now.

I'm Kai. I'm Mr. Smith's nephew. My

daughter IS IN THERE, TOO. SHE was with

Mr. Smith. Oh, my poor daughter. TO FACE

SUCH TRAGEDY before the wedding.

>> Go ahead. They're on the fifth floor.

August.

August. Please just look at me. Please

>> get away. How disrespectful.

>> Nice performance. But news flash, no

matter how much you cry, he's not coming

back to give you a single scent.

>> Is that all you care about? His money?

>> If he wasn't loaded, would you have

seduced him after I dumped you?

>> You're telling me to leave? Get this

straight. You never married him.

Legally, you're a stranger. You get

nothing. I am his only heir. Too bad he

died before you could touch his cash.

The company, the houses, the cars, the

money, it's all mine now. And his woman,

she belonged to me, too.

Shh. He's a billionaire now. We need our

cut.

>> Darling, I know how much you hate this

[ __ ] I'll let you have your fun with

her.

>> Run in hell. You shameless prick. You're

a monster.

>> You [ __ ] How dare you?

>> Is this the ring? The coronation ruby

that went for 200 million.

So he gave it to you. You really had him

wrapped around your finger.

>> Honey,

I want that for our wedding ring. It's

perfect for me.

>> NO. THIS IS THE LAST GIFT HE GAVE ME.

YOU CAN'T TAKE IT.

I didn't realize he'd already proposed.

Good thing I moved when I did. I was

close.

Are you saying you're the one who killed

August?

>> Bingo.

The idiot finally gets it. Pretty

impressive, wouldn't you say?

>> No, I don't believe it. How did you

tamper with his car? No, you couldn't

have. YOU DON'T HAVE HE WAS YOUR UNCLE.

>> USE YOUR HEAD. I didn't need access when

I could buy it. I knew which detailers

August used. One of the guys owed 100

rand. I offered to pay it off and he was

happy to mess with the brakes for me.

>> You bought August life for a measly

$100,000,

>> but you haven't inherited anything yet.

Where did you get the cash?

Dad,

you gave him the money.

You were part of this too.

Of course, that was every last scent I

had. But I won the bet, didn't I? Best

money I ever spent. Good work, son.

Dad, I was in that car, too. Were you

trying to kill me as well?

>> You should have thought of that before

you turned on me. You and August ruined

me. You took my company, my house. YOU

LEFT ME IN THE SLUMS. HOW DARE you treat

your own father like that? August

deserve to die. AS FOR YOU, YOU

HEARTLESS BRAT. You were useless. You

wouldn't help me. WOULDN'T EVEN DEFEND

ME. SO WHY SHOULDN'T YOU DIE, TOO? It's

a shame you survived.

Ah,

>> I think the one who deserves to die is

standing right there.

Is he a ghost?

>> No, you're alive. How? That's right. I'm

alive. Disappointed.

This is impossible. YOU SHOULD BE DEAD.

THE PLAN WORKED. THAT CRASH WAS

HORRIFIC. YOU WEREN'T IN THE CAR. You

sent someone else to die for you.

>> You think everyone is as heartless as

you?

There was no one in that car. Just a

very sophisticated self-driving system.

Even now you have no remorse.

>> STAY BACK OR I'LL KILL HER RIGHT NOW. IF

YOU want to live, let her go right now.

If you want to live, let her go right

now. If I let HER GO, I'M DEAD ANYWAY.

DROP THE GUNS. ALL of them.

DROP THE GUNS NOW.

YOU TWO DO IT.

DO AS HE SAYS NOW.

I WANT A YACHT AND $200 million. Once

I'm in international waters, I'll

release her. Fine, I'll have someone set

it up. Just don't hurt her.

It's okay, babe. It's over.

MELODY. MELODY, YOU'RE MY DAUGHTER, MY

PRECIOUS GIRL. YOU HAVE TO SAVE ME. HELP

YOUR FATHER.

>> DAD,

>> FROM NOW ON, YOU'LL BE MY FAVORITE. I

PROMISE.

>> NO, you're just a murderer who tried to

kill me and the man I love.

>> I am done living in your shadow.

>> You can spend the rest of your lives

behind bars.

>> MELODY. MELODY,

>> let's go home.

>> Yes, let's go home.

I have officially notifies my will.

From today on, my soul heirs will be my

children with my wife, Melody Baker.

Should anything happen to me before my

children are born,

my entire estate will go to Melody.

Ladies and gentlemen of the press, that

concludes today's conference. Please

exit in an orderly fashion.

Excuse me, sir.

>> Are you single?

>> No, I'm very much married, but I'd still

love to have a drink with you.
