Vivian Mercer had been married for ten years, managing the household and supporting her husband Grant’s early career, only to be left with nothing in divorce court as he, his mistress, and his family ganged up on her — even her son Leo was taken away. Grant humiliated her in open court, sneering that she had no money, no job, no home, and was unfit to raise a child. Vivian looked up and replied: Then I’ll buy the company that pays your lawyer. Though she appeared to be on the verge of breaking down, she actually held evidence of Grant’s Company Finance fraud and asset diversion. She reclaimed the trust identity left to her by her biological father, teamed up with Julian Cross, the top divorce lawyer she had missed out on back in college, and staged a two-pronged counterattack in both the custody hearing and the boardroom takeover battle. At the end of Episode 5, she received her son’s actual medical records and discovered that Grant’s family had been hiding the boy’s illness and medicating him to control his condition. In Episode 6, she stormed into a secret clinic, reclaimed her son, and officially launched her legal revenge.
