Phoenix is the CEO’s son, his father was sick and tired of Phoenix’s bratty behavior and taking his privilege for granted. So he sent Phoenix to the bottom of the company to work until he feels as though he learned his lesson. During the meantime he cut him off from all the money and everything even staying somewhere else. You work at there because you need to help ends meet and you see Phoenix sobbing at work because he wanted a lunch break but they won’t let him.
