[Applause] I zoomed past other cars my foot hitting the accelerator at every turn as my friend Vanessa screamed for her life just then I saw this police car tailing us and pulled to the side just do as I say okay like I have a choice shut it oh hey officer was I going too fast may I see your license please oh sure officer cutie it's C oopsie my bad you know I have this dream last night that I was stopped by a policeman and we went to this cute place by the ocean and shared a
cold latte since it's so hot these days I mean talk about global warming you think it's getting hot in here I think it is what do you think Vanessa I think you should shut up I think so too now please step out of the car really none of my flirting worked huh then I guess I have no choice but to do this and I stepped on the gas and sped the car away hi everyone I'm sage and I'm about to tell you how I messed up my life but before we get into that please like
And subscribe to MSA I lived with my single mother and my twin sister Zoe in a small apartment in downtown New York we didn't know anything about Dad except that he was a loser who turned his back on Mom and left her totally heartbroken one day you're going to come back crawling and begging for forgiveness and I will spit on your face and make you cry mark my word words that never happened and mom never found her true love again that didn't stop her from trying though she worked as a receptionist at this fancy Resort
outside town where she met tons of new people every month she would date some new guy who would break her heart and she'd become a sobbing mess like this one time when Zoe and I were 10 mom started dating this Italian guy who left her because her pasta was too salty it's garbage at 13 there was a biker guyy who thought it was a cool idea to teach mom how to ride a bike needless to say mom fell broke her arm and couldn't work for weeks and then a year later mom met this Indian guy
who even moved in with us take a deep breath in now exhale now inhale now inhale and exhale at the same time it's 5: in the morning dude can we speed this up yoga is all about patience the more you practice it the better you get now let's try again so annoying but mom thought he was perfect and sold off her jewelry to invest in his stupid yoga retreat but he just pocketed all the money and disappeared Without a Trace how could I be so stupid we were planning to set up this cute Bakery next
to the yoga retreat he teach yoga I'd bake cookies you know yoga is a form of exercise right cookies are kind of counterproductive why are you like that like what smart and practical no mean and heartless can't you see moms in pain maybe I was a bit heartless growing up poor makes you accept reality in a harsh way but with Zoe it was different she was dulu thanks to Mom and her awful choice in men she grew up thinking that the only way to have a good life was to get your hooks into someone rich
and successful I was reading this fashion blog and they said if I sleep with a clothes pin on my nose I'll get the perfect upturn nose like most rich people have that's the stupidest thing I've heard your nose is just fine can't hurt to make it better and what do you know about fashion and skin care she even tried poking her cheeks with pencils so she'd get dimples when that failed she turned to stupid home remedies it's just getting worse before it gets better right what do I know about fashion and skin care so yeah
Zoe and I were pulls apart and mom was always weird and things just got worse when we turned 18 mom met some guy at her Resort fell in love and a week later they got married and moved to Spain she promised to stay in touch but all we got were a few bucks and occasional phone calls with Bill's p piling up Zoe and I had to pick up housekeeping jobs at the resort the pay wasn't great but it was enough to cover school we even got a room to stay in which was a huge downgrade
from our apartment okay we need to make this work Zoe you take the broom and I'll dust the shelves uh I just got a manicure done so count me out where did you get the money wait have you been using my savings yeah but think of it as an investment in our future sure see what if tomorrow I run into some rich Bachelor who asks me out then Falls madly in love with me and we get married and when we move to our fancy new house I'll even set up a place for you in the
garage where you can stay with your girlfriend and and cats what girlfriend your girlfriend silly you don't need to stay in the closet forever it's 2024 I'm not gay Zoe I just don't have time for stupid boys now help me or I'll make you sleep on the floor the next few days were tough I woke up extra early worked my shift went to school came back worked again and passed out but Zoe barely showed up at work and was more busy flirting with some guy or the other and then on the night of our graduation
party Zoe and I were getting ready when I spotted this huge diamond ring on her finger where did you get this from uh I bought it by selling your kidney stop yelling okay fine I found this lying by the sink in a room I was cleaning today so I borrowed it for the party tonight and don't worry the guest isn't going to be back before tomorrow morning so I have plenty of time to put it back and what if they come back early realize their million dooll rock is missing and they trace it right to
you why would they assume it's me because you're a maid and the maid is always the thief who else would go in the room oh my God you're right how did I not think about that oh they'll catch me and throw me in jail I'm too pretty to go to jail plus no rich guy will marry an ex-convict my life will be over before it even begins just shut up for 2 minutes Zoe told me the room number and I double checked at the reception and thankfully the guest was still out this was the perfect
chance to put the ring back so I tiptoed my way across the hall popped out the master key and was about to open the door when suddenly my eyes fell on the most perfect guy ever his beautiful black hair matched his perfectly fitting tuxedo and he radiated elegance and confidence with his walk I was sure he was an important guest but then he stopped right next to me almost expect you to be ready on time uh you're talking to me do you see anyone else around let's leave shall we leave for or our date I'm
Carter our dad set us up Vanessa I thought you had seen my picture I want to see yours but you're not on social media and your dad say ha ging photographed but have your room number 709 so it's got to be you unless you lur around other people's rooms for some reason no why would I do that of course it's me I am she Vanessa and yes of course I've seen your picture but you have one of those faces that isn't very memorable a complete lie okay we have a reservation at the I don't want
to lose the table so let's go I smiled weakly as Carter led me to his chauffeur driven car had I just panicked and ended up on someone else's blind date at one of the fanciest French restaurants in town I quickly texted Zoe to go to the graduation party without me as we were led to our table I was overwhelmed by the freaking number of forks on the table and I couldn't understand anything on the menu I just let Carter order for me and we made awkward small talk and then fell silent good Lord I'd never
imagined a date with a gorgeous guy could be this painful so Vanessa's a lovely name uh yeah I guess I've never met a Vanessa except myself I'm actually named after Venice do you like Venice it's nice yes why I like stay more I travel a lot actually it's my way to taking a break uh break from what you know end list meetings parties interviews where I get asked a lot of dumb questions like what I eat in a day how much do I work out how many girlfriends I have etc etc and I have to
answer all that to keep up a certain image of course but this life can be very exhausting you know what I mean frankly no you sound like you don't appreciate how lucky you are what do you mean I mean look at that waiter for example he works his butt off every day trying to make just enough for his rent you think his life is easy but he still smiles and serves you isn't that exhausting maybe but that's what he gets paid for it's his job so he's not allowed to be tired because he works for
a wage but you riding around in chauffeur driven cars living in fancy houses dining in the best restaurants you can be tired because you have to attend a few meetings and answer a few questions don't you think that's a bit hypocritical I I hadn't really thought about that then maybe you should anyway I got to go but you haven't even touched your food I'm not hungry anymore and I just left without another word and hailed a cab back to the resort when I got there I realized that I still had the ring on me so
I decided to give my luck a second chance and tiptoed my way to Vanessa's room carefully of avoiding all the cameras I swiped the key gently turned the knob and walked in when suddenly someone jumped on me and pinned me to the ground who are you and why did you just sneak into my room and why are you wearing my ring speak up I will if you just get off me thankfully Vanessa agreed to listen and I spilled everything about the ring Carter and the blind date I thought she'd call security immediately but instead she
burst out laughing do you have any idea how much I tried to get out of that date you did me a huge favor does that mean you won't be pressing charges that depends you see I moved to France with my Grandma at 5 because my dad wanted to marry a kid- hating bimbo but now she's left him so he wants me to come back home problem is I don't want to I have my whole life in France including my boyfriend John Pierre and Dad hates him he wants me to date Carter or he'll cut me
off and since Carter thinks you're Vanessa you'll just have to date him in my place wow you rich folks are complicated and I can't do that because it's stupid and I'm pretty sure that guy hates me really then why did he send me a text asking to meet him again listen just make this Carter guy go away what if I say no then your sister will rot in jail and you will lose this job but what about my work I'll pay you does half a million sound good sounds great Vanessa and I shook on it
and that night I couldn't sleep a wink thinking about how this money could change everything for me and Zoe but I was pretty nervous about fooling some rich powerful guy I wanted to share my doubts with Zoe but I knew she was a tattletail so I kept quiet in the next morning Vanessa woke me up at 600 and told me that Carter was on his way to take me to a derby match is there a reason why I'm dressed like Mary Poppins cousin I get that you want him to hate me but this dress makes
me hate me the idea is to make you look undatable and this dress is perfect for that now remember make this the worst day of Carter's life he should be calling my dad and telling him that I'm a monster now go make me proud I left the hotel and greeted Carter at the gate half expecting him to say something about my dress but he just smiled and complimented me was he blind sorry I think we cut of got off on the wrong foot last night can we do this in the car please the heat is
making me dizzy sure for the rest of the ride Carter kept trying to talk to me but I just pretended to be busy on my phone soon after we reached the Derby stands and were about to take our seats when I put my plan into motion Carter can you give me something to drink I'm parched but the race is about to start you're right I'll just go and get it myself no wait I'll get it a thanks Carter pushed through the crowd and came back with a massive cup of soda I took one look at
it and screamed it has no ice I want ice Carter rushed through the crowd again and came back sweating with a new cup of soda thanks oh no what now this isn't diet I can't drink regular soda it makes me feel bloated and G y get me a new one pretty please Carter shot me an irritated look before running back into the crowd and by the time he got back the race was over I did feel a bit guilty but then I thought about how he must have made his servants run around a million times
so he probably deserved a little payback what an exciting game too bad you missed it yeah too bad are you mad at me you are aren't you I made you miss the game you must really hate me now it's if you don't want to see me again nonsense I love to see you again why I mean wow I must have really left an impression Carter inched closer and I literally stopped breathing I thought he was going to kiss me but then he just opened the car door and asked the driver to drop me at the
resort I'll pick you up tomorrow princess don't miss me too much you bet what the heck was that over the next few days I did everything to make Carter go away but nothing worked I threw Tantrums over the smallest things and he patiently calmed me down I made him wait for hours while I got dressed and didn't even apologize when I showed up and he just smiled and complimented me on Vanessa's instructions I even took him to an amusement park and then faked a hurt ankle so he'd have to carry me around when he sat
me down to rest I screamed in his ear to get me something to eat he was at the stall when I pulled out my phone and texted Vanessa the plan's not working I've tried everything the fake ankle making him carry me I even pulled his hair a little when I was on his back he's not budging just as I hit send I looked down and froze I'd accidentally texted Carter instead of Vanessa my heart raced as I scanned the crowd and spotted him walking towards me he handed me the food and took out his phone
but I grabbed it before he saw anything you're not allowed to see your phone till you feed me ah hello be a minute I think it's from my dad you're always on your phone you never pay any attention to me I'm hurt and all you care about is reading a stupid text from your dad and with that I threw his phone into a nearby Fountain Vanessa are you insane what he has something important to say guess I'll have to wait now wipe that brown and feed me eat it yourself you're impossible and I'm out of
here and he just turned around and left I thought I'd manage to finally get rid of him when I reached the resort and saw him waiting outside with a bunch of roses I didn't want any attention from the staff so I dragged him to the side what are you doing I am so sorry Vanessa I was way out line today for yelling at you like that please forgive me haven't you had enough I mean I'll think about it can you leave now I'm not leaving till you forgive me fine I forgive you you mean it
you want me to get it tattooed thank you I'll see you tomorrow great and I ran inside before anyone spotted me I had to do something before this guy drove me insane so I asked Vanessa for help and we sat down and stalked Carter online everywhere one of his Instagram posts said that he hated water so the next day when I met him I pitched the idea of scuba diving scuba diving why why would you want to do that because it's fun Imagine The Two Of Us hand in hand exploring the depths of the ocean
so romantic how about we eslor the test of my swimming pool instead we can still hold hands and it's a lot more convenient it's funny how you're talking but all I can hear are chicken sounds Carter's a chicken I'm not a chicken then prove it Carter reluctantly agreed but the next day when we were out on the water he said he just couldn't do it as we stood there with me trying to persuade him the boat suddenly lurched forward and we both fell into the water see it's not so deep and scary is it just
then I noticed that Carter wasn't swimming he seemed to be struggling to stay afloat and then he started sinking I quickly swam to him and helped him back onto the boat but he passed out I shook him gave him CPR and was about to give him mouth to mouth when he opened his eyes and coughed up water oh my God you're okay wait were you about to kiss me I can likee that down this isn't funny tell tell me about it I'm the one who nearly drowned you didn't tell me you don't know how to
swim I know how to swim I just panicked because we're in the middle of the ocean I told you I couldn't do it I'm so sorry Carter you should be now where were we yeah I had my eyes closed you're about to kiss me shut up once we were back on the main Shore we went to a cute Diner and ordered Burgers Carter spotted a jukebox and played some of his favorite songs but when I played mine he fell silent you don't like this song No I love it it reminds me of my mom she
used to hum this to me wherever I was feeling low I know I never say this but I really miss her I miss my mom too guess we're not that different huh you're way better than I'll ever be Carter pulled me close and as we swayed to the music I realized he'd never looked so perfect under that spoiled exterior was a boy who missed his mom and all he needed was someone to talk to I wanted to be that person for him but I also knew it wasn't going to last forever so I just melted
into his arms and decided not to think about it that was until I reached my room and reality slapped me in the face care to explain why you have such an expensive dress in your closet it's not mine I borrowed it from someone at work uhhuh then why' you hide it in your secret spot in the closet you went through my secret spot that's abominable who uses words like that also I don't know what it means and you've been acting really weird these days just last week I saw you sneaking into the room late at
night where were you I went out for a walk mom now if you're done interrogating me I've had a very long day obviously that didn't stop Zoe from snooping around and with time she only got more suspicious I had to put an end to everything soon so I thought I'd go and talk to Vanessa but her boyfriend was visiting and she was always busy with him and I decided to wait but then one day during a date Carter told me he wanted me to meet his dad why I mean don't you think we're moving too
fast we barely know each other I don't know about you but I think I know you pretty well really like what like I know you're pretty you have the most gorgeous smile in the world and that you play with your hair when you're nervous and we you're thinking too hard you make a weird face something like this stop it listen please just come it'll mean the world to me oh and I have something for you this necklace belonged to my mom and it'll look beautiful on you I I I don't think I can take this
I insist Carter gently put the necklace around my neck and I felt a million butterflies in my stomach the entire ride home I couldn't stop thinking about how I was deceiving him I gulped down my tears as I kissed him good night and then I barged into Vanessa's room Carter wants me to meet his dad and what do you mean his dad will spot my lie in a second no he won't I've never met him and even if I did rich people have the memory of a goldfish there's no chance he'd remember me that's not
the point if Carter wants me to meet his dad that means he's serious about me it'll crush his heart when he finds out I lied and why do you care about his heart listen Carter clearly doesn't want to break up with you but if his dad doesn't like you he might convince him to dump you all you have to do is make a horrible impression on the dad I'm sure you can handle it handle it I could barely walk in the ridiculous dress finessa picked out I tripped getting out of the car on my way
to Carter's Mansion finally I saw him waving at the front door and I felt a bit relieved but then his dad joined us and he stared at me with an icy stare Dad this is Vanessa I know you don't look anything like your pictures yeah I'm not very photogenic by the way it's so good to meet you sir and what a wonderful house you have these paintings and sculptures are really oneof a kind what an Exquisite collection and then I leaned onto one of the statues and it started wobbling the next thing I knew it
toppled over and shattered to Pieces as I backed off in horror I accidentally bumped into a waiter carrying a tray of shrimp and landed right on my butt every eye in the room turned to me and I quickly got up and bolted to the washroom as I was cleaning up a pretty girl walked in it was Sophie Carter's ex I recognized her for my online stalking sessions that was one heck of an entrance I'm Sophie by the way Carter must have mentioned me actually no he didn't can I help you with something just wanted to
see Carter's new catch and also there's something you should know as Sophie talked my heart sank knowing that I'd probably made the biggest mistake of my life I could barely process what she' told me and I ran off from the party without telling Carter by the time I got home I was so exhausted from all the overthinking I immediately passed out when I woke up the next morning my phone was buzzing and Zoe wasn't around I found out why immediately the police were calling to tell me Zoe had been arrested for stealing I took a
cap to the police station and on the way I called Vanessa to tell her what had happened but her phone went straight to voicemail I even tried the phone in her hotel room but she didn't answer that either I rushed into the police station only to find Carter talking to the police with Zoe standing next to him oh thank God I was beginning to think you'd never show up now before these people lie to you let me just tell you that whatever I did I did it for Mom who's mom our mom you mom called
me yesterday and told me that she wants to come visit us but she has no money for the tickets I thought I'd PA your stupid necklace off to help her out a bit but that pawn shop guy informed this Rich guy's family that someone was trying to sell an heirloom with their family crest and they dragged me here for no fault of mine no fault that necklace belongs to my mom and I gave it to Vanessa who the heck is Vanessa she is Vanessa my girlfriend no she's Sage my sister what is she talking about
Vanessa it's Sage s a g e dude you're cute but you really have your wires messed up shut up Zoe Carter I lied to you my name is sage and I am Zoe's sister Carter looked shocked as I told him everything about the ring and how Vanessa had asked me to take her place so you lied to me all this while I wanted to tell you the truth but I just couldn't why not if you needed money you could just ask me yeah right like you'd even look twice at me if you knew I was
poor and you really have money to hand out because I found out you've only been dating Vanessa for her Fortune no wonder you kept putting up with me no matter how much I tested you were you don't bother Carter Sophie told me everything Carter is only after your money he screwed up big business deal and now his dad's forcing him to marry an ays to save their business they need your dad to invest and bail them out how do you know that my dad told me he's business partners with Carter's father trust me I have
no interest in Carter I'm just helping a girl out here and you're just going to believe her without giving me a chance to explain myself well is she lying no but then there's nothing left to say look Carter we both lied and we're both wrong the only difference is that I lied for my family and you lied out of greed and I agree that there were moments where I got carried away but now I'm back to reality I'm pretty sure you don't care about me much but if you do even a little please drop the
charges against my sister she's the only family I've got I must have struck a cord with Carter because he took back his complaint and Zoe was released soon after but the news of her arrest reached the resort manager and we were both fired on the spot which was fine I was done with that place anyway Zoe and I moved to a small apartment and decided to start our life from scratch we found jobs at cafes and this time Zoe stuck to her promise to work hard she seemed to be actually sorry for all the trouble
she'd caused me and while it was difficult to not think about Carter I had to push him out of my mind and move on with my life then and a week later I was leaving for work when I found Vanessa standing at my door what are you doing here the night you were at Carter's place my dad showed up and told me he didn't want me to see Carter anymore he didn't give me a reason except that he didn't trust Carter's dad and that he was okay with my relationship with Jean Pierre and just wanted
me to come home that's a relief congratulations anything else here's your half a million dollars I'm a woman of my word I didn't actly do the job and I don't want money for tricking someone it didn't bother you before H I guess you must have fallen in love with Carter no that's not it well that's too bad cuz Carter's in love with you he called me to yell at me for making him fall in love with the wrong person and how he can't get over you he doesn't love me he was just after your fortune
that's why he put up with me for so long something tells me you haven't seen the news recently Carter officially resigned from his dad's company I think his dad forced him to be with me just for money and he was under a lot of pressure so he agreed but it looks like he doesn't care that much about money now oh he also announced he's taking care of the student loans of waiters working in 20 restaurants in this town I don't know what that's about I don't believe it Vanessa showed me the news article and I
was shocked oh God Carter really loves me I I have to tell him how I feel too but he's moving to his mom's place in London in like 3 hours then we have to be quick you have a car du you think I walked here of course I have a car uh but it's a little [Music] slow seriously I can crawl faster than this car told you he's slow I don't care cuz I'm mostly on my phone and you know how rich people are always fashionably late just sit back and relax enjoy the drive enjoy
my butt I asked the driver to stop and step aside while I took the wheels and hit the accelerator I zoomed past the cars got tailed by the police but somehow made it to the airport just in time I jumped out of the car and dashed towards the Gates still hearing the police sirens behind me go I'll take care of this I rushed through the airport screaming Carter's name all I could think of was not being able to talk to him and tell him how much I liked him and my heart sank when I checked
the departure charts and saw that the London flight had already Departed [Music] uh hi I met Vanessa I can't believe you gave up everything and you're poor now well I'm still not poor poor let's just say I have to share my helicopter with other people and where are we going wherever you say [Music] [Music]
