Short filmTranscript
00:00:00You have to be prepared. I don't have long. I'm not gonna let you die, Mom. You're gonna
00:00:17repeat this cancer. Danny, what are you doing? What does it look like I'm doing? Your rent's
00:00:31late. It didn't. It's two days late, and you said it wouldn't be an issue. I changed my
00:00:42mind. So, unless you want to pay up with that tight little auditor's, you're out by tomorrow morning.
00:00:49Please, you know my mom's cancer treatments are expensive, and I've never been late before.
00:01:03You should have thought of that before dumping me. I'll get you the money. I have a job interview
00:01:15today, and the signing bonus will be more than enough to cover it. Just give me 24 hours.
00:01:23Then you better get that job. Tick-tock, cupcake.
00:01:41Billionaire financer Robert Montgomery has announced his retirement from Montgomery Enterprises this morning,
00:01:47the company he built five decades ago. His successor is presumed to be Aston Montgomery,
00:01:53his eldest son and heir, who is known not only for his playboy ways, but his corporate
00:01:59business. Stella Evans? Come with me.
00:02:15So, you don't have any corporate experience, and you didn't even graduate from college?
00:02:22Well, something came up at home, and I couldn't.
00:02:26I'm not running a charity, Ms. Evans. I'm sorry, but I can't hire you.
00:02:30Please, I really need the money.
00:02:35So do 400 other applicants. What makes you so special?
00:02:43I may not be experienced, but I'm a quick learner, and I really need the money.
00:02:49And I need someone who already knows what they're doing. This interview is over.
00:02:58Hey, you can't just walk away from me, you entitled prick!
00:03:03What did you say to me?
00:03:05You heard me, just because you think you're better than everyone else.
00:03:14Shut up.
00:03:20You know what you...
00:03:28What is that doing in my office?
00:03:43That, Mr. Montgomery, is your love child.
00:03:50I'm a father.
00:03:54What do I do?
00:03:57You said you needed a job. Help me.
00:04:05I'm a father.
00:04:08I'm a father.
00:04:11I'm a father.
00:04:14I'm a father.
00:04:16I'm a father.
00:04:22God, he's still crying.
00:04:30I can't believe that worked.
00:04:32See? You didn't need my help after all.
00:04:37So, the rumors are true. I'm a grandfather.
00:04:41No, father, this is not...
00:04:43The board will never let an irresponsible playboy lead the company.
00:04:47You said there'd be no more scandals.
00:04:50I have no choice but to turn the company over to your brother, Clive.
00:04:54No, father, there are no scandals.
00:04:58Father, this is Stella.
00:05:02Father, this is Stella.
00:05:06My fiancé and the mother of my child.
00:05:09What the fuck?
00:05:17Excuse me?
00:05:19You expect me to believe this low-class woman is your fiancé?
00:05:23Do not speak about her that way.
00:05:25I love her.
00:05:27And I'm tired of hiding it.
00:05:30Right, honey?
00:05:34Please go with it.
00:05:41Right!
00:05:43Even in secret, Aston is a wonderful fiancé.
00:05:48On the outside, he's a...
00:05:52hardened businessman, but...
00:05:55on the inside, he's a total sweetheart.
00:05:58Only for you.
00:06:00You saw through it the moment we met.
00:06:04Don't mistake me for a fool, son.
00:06:06If I find out you're lying,
00:06:08I will strip you of the company and your inheritance.
00:06:12And you'll have nothing left.
00:06:21Okay, we need to figure this out.
00:06:24We? Oh, there is no we. I am so out of here.
00:06:27No, you can't go. I need you.
00:06:35You're a billionaire. You can have any woman.
00:06:38Why me?
00:06:39You said you needed money, right?
00:06:41I happen to have a lot of it.
00:06:44Be my fiancé and the mother of my child
00:06:47until my father signs the company over to me.
00:06:50Then I will pay you five million dollars.
00:06:53We can go our separate ways, and we will never see each other again.
00:06:56Five million dollars could change everything.
00:06:58It could help me save my mom.
00:07:00Do we have a deal, Ms. Evans?
00:07:06Fine, but only because my rent's overdue and I need you to pay it.
00:07:10Done.
00:07:14I'll have my assistant wire the money today.
00:07:17And you're mine.
00:07:19Starting right now.
00:07:26Mr. Montgomery! Mr. Montgomery!
00:07:28Excuse me, is this your child?
00:07:30Why are you trying to keep this under wraps here?
00:07:32Step aside!
00:07:33Mr. Montgomery, how did you hide your fiancé and child for so long?
00:07:36Ms. Evans, did you get this baby out of the circus to trap him?
00:07:39Don't!
00:07:41Ignore me, bitch.
00:07:43Be a good girl.
00:07:45Get off of her!
00:07:47Come on, sweetheart.
00:07:49You're just a little girl.
00:07:51You're just a little girl.
00:07:53Come on, sweetheart.
00:07:55You're just a little girl.
00:08:01You want a quote? Fine.
00:08:04Our engagement announcement was ruined by some grabby asshole with a camera.
00:08:10And one more thing.
00:08:12Touch my fiancé again, I'll break more than just your camera.
00:08:16Mr. Montgomery, can we answer our questions, please?
00:08:19Mr. Montgomery, you cannot ignore us, Mr. Montgomery.
00:08:22Mr. Montgomery, sir, what do you have to say?
00:08:38This place is beautiful.
00:08:42So what do we do now?
00:08:45Simple.
00:08:47We do what fiancés do.
00:08:53Look at me.
00:09:08What the hell was that?
00:09:10This is part of the deal.
00:09:12We have to sell it.
00:09:14We have to sell it.
00:09:16We have to sell it.
00:09:18We have to sell it.
00:09:20This is part of the deal.
00:09:22We have to sell it.
00:09:24I have someone looking into where Emma came from.
00:09:26It should all be sorted out soon.
00:09:28What will be sorted, brother?
00:09:30Clive.
00:09:32Welcome home.
00:09:34This fiancé and baby certainly came out of nowhere, didn't they?
00:09:38What are you doing here, Clive?
00:09:40I came to meet my niece and soon-to-be sister-in-law, you know.
00:09:44Since it all happened so fast.
00:09:48Uh, Evans, is it?
00:09:52And what trash barrel did you crawl out of?
00:09:57The trash barrel I crawled out of is none of your business.
00:10:01Oh, contraire, mon chéri.
00:10:04It's most definitely my business.
00:10:07The Montgomerys don't associate with peasants.
00:10:10Bad for business.
00:10:11Leave her alone!
00:10:13Of what?
00:10:14Care to find out?
00:10:19So, my playboy brother does have feelings.
00:10:22And for a low-class gold digger, no less.
00:10:26Be careful.
00:10:28It's only a matter of time before he dumps you and that baby back into the gutter where you came from.
00:10:38She's cute.
00:10:43Looks just like her.
00:10:47Looks just like you, brother.
00:10:53Get away from our baby and get out of our house!
00:10:56Fine.
00:10:58But there's something weird going on here, and I'll find out what it is.
00:11:01The CEO position will be mine.
00:11:04And the first thing I'll do is fire you, brother.
00:11:17Is everyone in your family like that?
00:11:20My half-brother is just the tip of the iceberg.
00:11:23So keep your guard up.
00:11:29I have a few things I have to do.
00:11:32Your room is upstairs.
00:11:36What have I gotten myself into?
00:11:39At least I'll be able to take care of my mom when this is all over.
00:11:43If there's anything you need while I'm gone, just call.
00:11:46But the nurse will take care of you.
00:11:48How did you get the money for a nurse?
00:11:50It's so expensive.
00:11:52I...
00:11:54I got a job.
00:11:56Don't worry about me.
00:12:00I gotta go.
00:12:02I'll see you soon.
00:12:04Bye.
00:12:16Holy hot.
00:12:23See something you like?
00:12:28I...
00:12:31Miss Evans?
00:12:33Everything okay?
00:12:37Emma needs us.
00:12:40Right behind you.
00:12:48What's wrong with her?
00:12:51Hey, baby.
00:12:53Hey.
00:12:55There you go.
00:12:57Good job, baby girl.
00:12:59How did you do that?
00:13:01She just wanted to be held.
00:13:03We should hold her.
00:13:04Oh, I don't know about that.
00:13:06She's your daughter.
00:13:08She probably wants you more than anyone else.
00:13:12Trust me.
00:13:13I wish my dad was around.
00:13:15I've never held a baby before and she's so little.
00:13:17I don't want to hurt her.
00:13:23Here we go.
00:13:32No.
00:13:41Okay.
00:13:42Baby steps.
00:13:44Say goodnight to your daughter.
00:13:55Goodnight, Emma.
00:14:01Goodnight.
00:14:09It's the private investigator.
00:14:11The sooner I find out who Emma's mom is, the better.
00:14:31Did the private chef make all this?
00:14:33No.
00:14:35I did.
00:14:38A playboy billionaire who cooks.
00:14:41Maybe I misjudged you.
00:14:44Not such a prick after all, huh?
00:14:47Maybe life with Aston won't be so bad after all.
00:14:53But...
00:14:54Back to business.
00:14:57My family is coming over for dinner tonight.
00:15:01They want to meet you.
00:15:03You're family.
00:15:04Aston, I can't...
00:15:05Oh, you can.
00:15:07And you will.
00:15:16This is part of the deal.
00:15:18If you want the money,
00:15:19everyone has to believe that you're my fiancé and the mother of my child,
00:15:22starting with my family.
00:15:25Phone rings.
00:15:30Mom?
00:15:32Mom?
00:15:33Can you hear me?
00:15:35My mom's in trouble.
00:15:42Danny, what are you doing?
00:15:44I paid you.
00:15:46Well, I changed my mind
00:15:48when I heard you were checking out with some billionaire.
00:15:55Knock it off!
00:15:57You know my mom needs that medicine.
00:15:59Well, now that you've come in to some money,
00:16:02you can pay me more.
00:16:03Two years' rent should do it, I thought.
00:16:06She'll pay you what she owes you and not a cent more.
00:16:14This is your billionaire boyfriend?
00:16:17Actually, he's my fiancé.
00:16:21And he's rich and powerful.
00:16:25He has a bigger dick than you.
00:16:32You really think you're good enough for him?
00:16:35I only fucked you because I felt sorry for you and you're done.
00:16:46Stella is more than good enough for me.
00:16:47If you touch her again, I will kill you.
00:16:49No.
00:16:57That was for my fiancé.
00:16:59And this one's for me.
00:17:05Stella?
00:17:06Mom!
00:17:09Mom!
00:17:11Hey.
00:17:12Hey.
00:17:13Stella.
00:17:14Stella, he took my medicine.
00:17:17I have it right here, Mrs. Evans.
00:17:21That man will never bother you again.
00:17:24I will make sure of it.
00:17:28And I'm sending someone for your things.
00:17:30They're coming to live with us.
00:17:40Thank you for helping me with my mom.
00:17:43That wasn't part of the deal.
00:17:50Not everything I do has to be about our deal, Stella.
00:18:04Still, thank you.
00:18:08And I'm sorry for calling you a prick earlier.
00:18:10Why?
00:18:11I can be a prick.
00:18:13When I really want to be.
00:18:17Speaking of our deal,
00:18:19be ready by 7 p.m. for the family dinner.
00:18:23But I have nothing to wear.
00:18:27I'll take care of that.
00:18:41Okay.
00:19:08I hoped you'd pick the red.
00:19:10You look beautiful.
00:19:13I'm still debating what shoes to wear, though.
00:19:16Allow me.
00:19:41There's one thing missing.
00:19:47There's one thing missing.
00:19:54A ring.
00:19:57May I?
00:20:02I'm sorry.
00:20:04I'm sorry.
00:20:06I'm sorry.
00:20:08I'm sorry.
00:20:11Aspen, it's beautiful, but it's too much.
00:20:16It's only for appearances, nothing more.
00:20:19Please wear it.
00:20:31Shall we?
00:20:40Yes.
00:20:52You ready to sell this?
00:21:00Aspen, a word.
00:21:04It'll take a moment.
00:21:08Go.
00:21:11I'll be fine.
00:21:26Stella, how nice of you to join us.
00:21:30This is the woman who trapped our Aspen with a bastard child.
00:21:34Funny.
00:21:35It's hard to believe that you had a baby less than a year ago.
00:21:39Mother, be nice.
00:21:41I'm sure Stella's trying her best.
00:21:48Oh, I didn't know Aspen had a sister.
00:21:53Sister?
00:21:54No.
00:21:55I'm Clarissa.
00:21:58Aspen's ex-fiancee.
00:22:01Aspen's ex-fiancee?
00:22:10Oh, God.
00:22:11Is she pregnant with Aspen's baby?
00:22:17No wonder Aspen didn't introduce you earlier.
00:22:19You're nothing like me.
00:22:21And thank God for that.
00:22:23Stella would never cheat on me and get knocked up by my brother.
00:22:26At least we didn't hide our child from the entire family.
00:22:30That's right.
00:22:31Where even is my step-grandbaby?
00:22:35You see, Robert, he's as negligent a father as he would be a CEO.
00:22:40She's with the nanny.
00:22:42To keep her from the judgment of people like you.
00:22:44All that matters is our judgment.
00:22:46And bringing in this peasant certainly doesn't help your case.
00:22:52Excuse me?
00:22:53Who are you calling peasant?
00:22:55Being rich doesn't mean you can walk all over me.
00:23:00How dare you talk back to me like that?
00:23:06You can't even control your worthless fiancee.
00:23:09You'll never be good enough to be CEO.
00:23:22Aspen is the only person who should run Montgomery Enterprises.
00:23:25Anyone else's CEO would be a mistake.
00:23:29Especially your son.
00:23:39You have upset my fiance and I won't stand for that.
00:23:42Dinner is canceled.
00:23:44Get out of my house.
00:23:48Now.
00:23:59I'm sorry if I was out of line.
00:24:01No.
00:24:02Thank you for defending me.
00:24:05You didn't have to do that.
00:24:08Of course I did.
00:24:12I'm your fiance.
00:24:18I never should have brought you into this.
00:24:23I'm sorry.
00:24:25I never should have brought you into this.
00:24:28It's not fair to you.
00:24:32I'll pay you what I owe you, just...
00:24:37Take the money and go, Stella.
00:24:39What's going to happen to you and Emma?
00:24:41Don't worry about us.
00:24:42I do worry about you.
00:24:46I care about you both.
00:24:47I'm sorry, Stella, but...
00:24:50This contract between us is over.
00:24:55What contract?
00:25:03What contract?
00:25:09I told you what would happen if I caught you lying.
00:25:12We're not lying.
00:25:14Prove it.
00:25:20We were just talking about the contract for our wedding venue.
00:25:24I'm so excited to get planning.
00:25:30I see.
00:25:42You've saved me twice in the last 20 minutes.
00:25:48You are not what I expected.
00:25:51What did you expect?
00:25:54I don't know.
00:25:57Not you.
00:26:02Why are you looking at me like you want to kiss me?
00:26:05Because I do want to kiss you.
00:26:14Because I do want to kiss you.
00:26:16It's all I've thought about since you put on that red dress.
00:26:25We probably shouldn't complicate this whole fake relationship thing.
00:26:30Especially since we're not actually getting married.
00:26:35You're right.
00:26:37We'll break off this engagement as soon as possible and we'll both get everything we want.
00:26:55I love you.
00:27:03I have some good news.
00:27:05You're getting married.
00:27:07Tomorrow.
00:27:15Congratulations.
00:27:17By this time tomorrow, you'll officially be husband and wife.
00:27:21Tomorrow?
00:27:23Unless there's some sort of problem with getting married tomorrow.
00:27:26It's just...
00:27:28We're not in a rush.
00:27:30But the board is.
00:27:32A child out of wedlock is a scandal.
00:27:36And one that must be remedied immediately.
00:27:41I hope that won't be a problem.
00:27:45Married?
00:27:47That wasn't part of the deal.
00:27:49I know.
00:27:52But would it be so bad being married to me?
00:28:02Yes!
00:28:03Do you know how many women I would have to beat off with a stick?
00:28:06It would be exhausting!
00:28:08Seriously, Astrid.
00:28:10It would be exhausting!
00:28:12Seriously, Astrid.
00:28:14I don't know.
00:28:22Take some time to think about it.
00:28:26But I need an answer tonight.
00:28:28Mom.
00:28:39Mom.
00:28:41How did you know when you were ready to get married?
00:28:44I don't think anybody ever is ready, truly.
00:28:50I mean, your father and I certainly weren't.
00:28:53You weren't?
00:28:55No.
00:28:56You were young.
00:28:58Too young, even.
00:29:01But your father made me feel a way I'd never felt before.
00:29:06He made me feel loved.
00:29:08Valued.
00:29:10Whole.
00:29:26But it didn't even work out.
00:29:29It ended before I was born.
00:29:33Just because something doesn't last
00:29:36doesn't mean you can't enjoy it while you have it.
00:29:45Plus, your father gave me you,
00:29:49which is more than enough.
00:29:52I can't deny it.
00:29:54I want to marry Aston.
00:29:56Even if it's temporary.
00:29:58He and Emma are my family.
00:30:00It would break my heart when it's all over.
00:30:13She just went down.
00:30:17Look, I know this isn't what you wanted.
00:30:21You deserve to marry someone who truly cares about you.
00:30:24So...
00:30:28If you want to walk away now, I won't blame you.
00:30:34So, do you have an answer for me?
00:30:41So, do you have an answer for me?
00:30:45I do.
00:30:48Aston, look at me.
00:30:55I never thought I would get married as part of a contract,
00:30:58but I said I'd help you, and I'll keep my word.
00:31:06It means a lot to me.
00:31:12I have to say I'm surprised Aston is going through with this.
00:31:15I definitely thought that he would have dumped you by now.
00:31:18He probably will once he sees her in that rag.
00:31:22It was my mother's wedding dress.
00:31:24Of course it was.
00:31:26Only a poor person would wear something like that.
00:31:28I'm surprised your Prince Charming didn't buy you something better.
00:31:31He clearly doesn't care about you.
00:31:40Aston cares about me, and I don't need a dress to prove it.
00:31:44Are you sure if he really loved you,
00:31:47he would have given you his mother's ring?
00:31:54Are you sure if he really loved you,
00:31:57he would have given you his mother's ring?
00:32:10Is that what he gave you, Clarissa?
00:32:13No, but that's only because I wanted something bigger.
00:32:21From Mr. Montgomery, for his fiancée.
00:32:25Oh my God, it's gorgeous.
00:32:28That's the late Mrs. Montgomery's necklace.
00:32:32That's supposed to be mine.
00:32:34I am under strict orders
00:32:37to allow nobody but Ms. Evans near this necklace.
00:32:41Especially you.
00:33:01You look like the future Mrs. Montgomery.
00:33:06I do.
00:33:09If only this were real.
00:33:26I know that you and Aston are lying about your relationship.
00:33:31So if you know what's best, you won't go through with this wedding.
00:33:35Aston isn't who you think he is.
00:33:42So if you know what's best, you won't go through with this wedding.
00:33:49Aston isn't the man you think he is.
00:33:51Whatever money you think you might be getting,
00:33:54whatever feelings you think he may have,
00:33:58it's all just one big lie.
00:34:01Your vision of the future is not the reality.
00:34:11Thank you for the advice.
00:34:13But I don't need it.
00:34:15I can handle myself.
00:34:17And nothing you say can scare me.
00:34:23Say no to Aston in front of everyone,
00:34:26or I'll make sure you regret it.
00:34:29Your choice, Stella Evans.
00:34:31Don't make the wrong one.
00:34:59You look beautiful.
00:35:01Hey.
00:35:03Is everything okay?
00:35:04Is it true? Is Aston just using me to get what he wants?
00:35:08Is he just using Emma?
00:35:10Dearly beloved, we are gathered here today
00:35:14to join this man and woman in holy matrimony.
00:35:17Marriage is powerful and what it makes you feel lucky to be married.
00:35:19Do you take Aston to be your lawfully wedded husband?
00:35:23I'm sorry, I can't marry you.
00:35:31I'm sorry, I can't marry you.
00:35:53Why?
00:35:56What the hell was that about?
00:35:59Is this all fake, Aston?
00:36:01Every word you're telling me, every look you're giving me,
00:36:04is it all just some charade?
00:36:06Jesus!
00:36:07Is this necklace even real?
00:36:09God!
00:36:16Hey.
00:36:18Hey.
00:36:22Hey.
00:36:39I have meant every word I've said to you.
00:36:43None of this is a lie.
00:36:46And this necklace?
00:36:50My mother left it to me before she died.
00:36:52She said that I should only give it to someone I care about.
00:36:58Someone I saw a future with.
00:37:02Yeah.
00:37:17I'm falling for you Stella Evans.
00:37:20I have been since the moment we met.
00:37:32I don't know how I feel right now.
00:37:35Today's just been a lot and my mind is all over the place.
00:37:41You're right.
00:37:43This wedding's way too much, too soon.
00:37:46Stay here and I'll tell everybody the wedding is off.
00:38:02Excellent.
00:38:04A runaway bride is an even bigger scandal than a love child.
00:38:15This must be a record, brother.
00:38:18Two fiancées down.
00:38:20At least this one made it to the altar.
00:38:23Hi everyone.
00:38:25Sorry to keep you waiting, but there won't be...
00:38:28any more interruptions.
00:38:31Who's ready for a wedding?
00:38:34Okay, let's try this again.
00:38:59Dearly beloved,
00:39:01we are gathered here today to join this man and this woman
00:39:05in holy matrimony.
00:39:07Marriage is powerful in ways you'd never expect.
00:39:10It's something that makes you feel lucky to be alive
00:39:13exactly when and where you are.
00:39:15It's choosing your partner at every moment of every day
00:39:20and of learning how to love even the darkest parts of another person.
00:39:24A true partner stays with you through thick and thin,
00:39:27in sickness and in health,
00:39:29for better or worse,
00:39:31for richer or poorer,
00:39:33on death do you part.
00:39:35Aston, do you take Stella to be your lawfully wedded wife?
00:39:39I do.
00:39:41And Stella, do you take this man to be your lawfully wedded husband?
00:39:46Stella, do you take this man to be your lawfully wedded husband?
00:40:07I do.
00:40:09Good.
00:40:11Kiss the bride now.
00:40:25I'd like to congratulate my eldest son on his marriage today
00:40:29and to announce that he's going to be taking over Montgomery Enterprises
00:40:34as my successor and CEO tomorrow.
00:40:38This is bullshit.
00:40:40CEO should be mine.
00:40:45This is your fault, you little bitch.
00:40:47Clyde, what's wrong?
00:40:49I hope that hurt.
00:40:51Not as much as this girl.
00:40:53You're my baby!
00:40:56Not as much as this girl.
00:40:58You're my baby!
00:41:02What the hell?
00:41:03You ruined my suit!
00:41:04If you touch my wife again, I will end you.
00:41:06Now get the hell out of my wedding.
00:41:14Baby!
00:41:15You're just going to stand there and let him do that?
00:41:19You're right.
00:41:20I should have stopped him before the slap.
00:41:22Let's get out of here before someone else tries to ruin our wedding day.
00:41:34Are you okay?
00:41:41I'm fine.
00:41:43He barely got me.
00:41:48So, husband, what should we do next?
00:42:03I have wanted you since the moment we met.
00:42:07Mrs. Montgomery.
00:42:23Where are you going?
00:42:28If I don't leave now, I won't be able to stop myself
00:42:33from tearing you out of that dress.
00:42:38Is that why I wanted you to stop?
00:42:48Since the moment I met you, you have consumed my everything.
00:42:53I can't eat.
00:42:55I can't sleep.
00:42:56I can't work without thinking about you.
00:43:00Without imagining you.
00:43:05Do you want me?
00:43:08More than anything.
00:43:31Tell me what you want.
00:43:42Stella, help!
00:43:50The baby's not breathing.
00:43:59I don't know what happened.
00:44:00One minute she was breathing and the next thing she...
00:44:04Thank God.
00:44:08It's okay.
00:44:09She's okay now, see?
00:44:21That's the most terrified I've ever been in my life.
00:44:25That's because she's your baby girl and you love her.
00:44:30What if I can't do this on my own?
00:44:33What if I can't raise an entire human being?
00:44:41You can do this.
00:44:43Actually, you already are doing it.
00:44:46All you have to do is love her.
00:44:49That's more than my dad did for me.
00:44:57It's the private investigator.
00:44:59He might have information on who Emma's mom is.
00:45:17Mom, I wanted to let you know that I went through with the wedding.
00:45:22And I brought you a picture.
00:45:27And I even wore your dress.
00:45:29Stella.
00:45:32Oh, you're so beautiful.
00:45:36I'm so glad you found someone to take care of you after...
00:45:40Oh, God.
00:45:44What are you talking about?
00:45:52What's this?
00:45:54A clinical trial?
00:45:56But it cost $10 million?
00:45:58Something like that could save my mom.
00:46:01But how am I ever going to get that much money?
00:46:10There you are.
00:46:13Everything okay?
00:46:15Yep.
00:46:17What are you doing?
00:46:22I have to take a paternity test.
00:46:32I have to take a paternity test.
00:46:38I guess we'll know soon if I'm Emma's father.
00:46:41If?
00:46:43Well, they got the footage from the office the day Emma was dropped off.
00:46:47But the woman who was there...
00:46:50I don't recognize her.
00:46:54So you just forgot someone you slept with?
00:46:58That wasn't a good time in my life.
00:47:01And I made a lot of bad decisions.
00:47:05But I've changed.
00:47:07You've changed me.
00:47:10Which is why I need you to come with me to the board meeting today.
00:47:15You keep me grounded.
00:47:21Of course I'll go with you.
00:47:28Today is about more than my retirement.
00:47:31It's about the future of Montgomery Enterprise.
00:47:34A future that will be ripped to shreds if you allow your lying son to become CEO.
00:47:42What are you talking about?
00:47:46You.
00:47:48You're not the mother of his child.
00:47:53You're not the mother of his child.
00:47:56You're lying.
00:47:58They're both lying to all of you.
00:48:03Stella Evans.
00:48:06Ten o'clock interview with Ashton Montgomery for the executive assistant position.
00:48:13Looks like he offered a different job to her altogether.
00:48:17This man would go so far as to marry a complete stranger in order to become your CEO.
00:48:24I don't know how much he's paying you, but it must be a lot.
00:48:28If this is true, son, you're an embarrassment to this family and this company.
00:48:35The board can't proceed with a vote.
00:48:41It's true.
00:48:43Stella was there to interview that day.
00:48:45Me.
00:48:46To see if I was up for the challenge to raising our daughter.
00:48:50But this isn't about my personal life.
00:48:52This is about what's best for Montgomery Enterprise's going into the future.
00:48:56And since I've become COO, I have more than doubled our profits.
00:49:00And if that's not enough for you, then I don't know what is.
00:49:06It doesn't matter what you say.
00:49:08Mom already promised me the position of CEO would be mine.
00:49:12Enough.
00:49:15We will vote now.
00:49:18Is there a vote for Clive?
00:49:24Is there a vote for Aston?
00:49:33It's a tie.
00:49:35So it all comes down to my father.
00:49:39And I have decided.
00:49:45The new CEO of Montgomery Enterprises is...
00:49:54The new CEO of Montgomery Enterprises is...
00:50:00Aston Montgomery.
00:50:06What about me?
00:50:08I've looked at the financials.
00:50:10You've spent more time at the country club than in the boardroom.
00:50:14It's not my fault their Cobb salads are excellent.
00:50:18And the boardroom is boring.
00:50:24Come on.
00:50:27Congratulations Aston.
00:50:29The new CEO of Montgomery Enterprises.
00:50:32But make me doubt anything else and I'll rip everything away from you two without hesitation.
00:50:37So what's your first act as CEO?
00:50:56I violate every page of the HR handbook.
00:50:58It's a good thing you never gave me that job.
00:51:06I need you.
00:51:11We can't.
00:51:12Somebody could walk in.
00:51:13So?
00:51:14So what?
00:51:15Remember what your dad said?
00:51:16We can't afford another scandal.
00:51:23Aston.
00:51:25The board would like to see you.
00:51:26To go over some financials.
00:51:28Of course.
00:51:43Knock knock.
00:51:46Clarissa if you're here to bully me I am not in the mood.
00:51:49That's not why I'm here.
00:51:51I'm here as a courtesy.
00:51:53You deserve the truth and clearly Aston isn't going to give it to you.
00:52:00This baby isn't Clive's.
00:52:03It's Aston's.
00:52:13What the hell are you talking about?
00:52:14That baby cannot be Aston's.
00:52:16Well we clearly couldn't tell you until the roost was over.
00:52:18Until he became CEO.
00:52:21But now that it's all over and Aston got what he wanted we don't need you anymore.
00:52:28He doesn't need you anymore.
00:52:43I don't believe you.
00:52:45Believe Aston then.
00:52:47Go ahead.
00:52:48Open that desk drawer.
00:53:01Oh my god.
00:53:02He signed the divorce papers.
00:53:05Clarissa's telling the truth.
00:53:16You can go now.
00:53:28Sweet Emma.
00:53:31I'm going to miss you so much.
00:53:34What's going on?
00:53:36I'm saying goodbye to Emma and then I'm out of here.
00:53:39Just like you want me to be.
00:53:46Stella why are you packing?
00:53:47Here.
00:53:48I signed them.
00:53:49You don't have to worry about me anymore.
00:53:51What are you talking about?
00:53:52Come on Aston.
00:53:53You used me to get everything you wanted.
00:53:56I was a fool to think we could ever be together.
00:53:58That we could ever have a family together.
00:54:00Oh and by the way.
00:54:02Congratulations on the baby.
00:54:04I hope you and Clarissa are really happy together.
00:54:07Wait.
00:54:14Wait.
00:54:19Please.
00:54:20Let me explain.
00:54:27What could you possibly have to say to me?
00:54:32There is nothing and will never be anything between me and Clarissa ever again.
00:54:36I'm not even the father of her child.
00:54:38And these.
00:54:39I had these drawn up the day I met you before.
00:54:41I knew this could be anything more than a contract.
00:54:44And this.
00:54:45Just take it.
00:54:48Please just take everything out.
00:54:49All I want is you and Emma.
00:54:51I could take or leave anything else.
00:54:54You don't mean that.
00:54:55Of course I mean it.
00:54:57I have meant every word I have said to you.
00:55:01I'm in Stella.
00:55:02I'm all in.
00:55:04Are you?
00:55:10I'm in Stella.
00:55:11I'm all in.
00:55:13Are you?
00:55:20Yeah.
00:55:21I'm all in.
00:55:25Are you?
00:55:28Yes.
00:55:37The paternity results are in.
00:55:41I'm not Emma's father.
00:55:53I can't believe I'm not her father.
00:55:58If she doesn't belong to me, then why would that woman have shown up at my office and made me believe she was mine?
00:56:22I can't tell you why this is happening, Aston.
00:56:41But Emma's lucky to have you as a dad.
00:56:45Biological or not.
00:56:48We need to find the truth.
00:56:55Dahlia's behind it all.
00:57:02I'm not telling you anything.
00:57:04This isn't a game, Dahlia.
00:57:05She's a child.
00:57:06Where did Emma come from?
00:57:09Step down to CEO and I'll tell you.
00:57:18Are you kidding me?
00:57:19This is way bigger than a CEO position.
00:57:22This is a child's life you're messing with.
00:57:25Shut up, you little tramp.
00:57:28If you hadn't come along pretending to be her mother, the scandal would have proceeded as planned.
00:57:35And that little child would be back at the orphanage right where she belonged.
00:57:39Orphanage?
00:57:41That's right.
00:57:42The baby's trash, just like you.
00:58:01I don't care.
00:58:08Aston, you better get control of your little wife.
00:58:11Or nothing.
00:58:13You will not speak about my wife or my family that way.
00:58:16Get out.
00:58:30Call every orphanage in the city until you find one that's missing a baby.
00:58:43It's okay.
00:58:44It's okay, we're gonna figure this out.
00:58:50Oh my god, did she just call me mama?
00:58:52She's yours if you want her to be.
00:58:58I want to be, but until we figure out what's going on, I can't get attached.
00:59:06Bye, Aston.
00:59:11Mr. Montgomery, Mr. Montgomery, Mr. Montgomery.
00:59:14What can you say about the recent allegations that Miss Evans is not the mother of your son's child?
00:59:20Mr. Montgomery, you can't ignore us, Mr. Montgomery.
00:59:28What's going on?
00:59:30The press is having a field day out there.
00:59:32I told you to.
00:59:34No more scandals.
00:59:35What are you talking about?
00:59:38I went out on a limb for you, son.
00:59:40I trusted you.
00:59:41And this has been a lie the whole time?
00:59:45You say she's the mother of your child?
00:59:47Prove it.
00:59:48Or I'll expect you to step down as CEO tomorrow morning.
00:59:54How do we prove it?
00:59:57Simple.
00:59:59Take a maternity test.
01:00:06How do we prove it?
01:00:09Simple.
01:00:11Take a maternity test.
01:00:20Mr. Montgomery, Mr. Montgomery.
01:00:21We're not going away, Mr. Montgomery.
01:00:24Come on, now.
01:00:26Whoa, whoa, whoa.
01:00:28Okay.
01:00:30Aston, if I take a maternity test, they're going to know that Emma's not mine, and then we may lose her forever.
01:00:38No.
01:00:45I should have never lied in the first place.
01:00:50Ah!
01:00:53Mom!
01:00:55Mom!
01:00:58Ah!
01:00:59My mom is dying!
01:01:06Her head is so warm.
01:01:09It's okay.
01:01:18My heart was racing.
01:01:20I was so scared.
01:01:23It's okay.
01:01:27It's okay.
01:01:29It's all going to be okay.
01:01:43Hey.
01:01:45My mom's getting worse.
01:01:49She needs this experimental treatment, but we can't afford it, so...
01:01:55Why didn't you tell me?
01:01:59I didn't want to be a burden to you.
01:02:01You can never be a burden.
01:02:04How much does the treatment cost?
01:02:11Ten million dollars.
01:02:13I'll pay it.
01:02:15Every penny.
01:02:24Aston, I...
01:02:25Like I said, money doesn't matter.
01:02:28I would do anything for you, anything for our family.
01:02:38You have no idea what this means to me.
01:02:49How do you always know just what to say to make me feel better?
01:02:56Because I know you.
01:02:58I know what you want.
01:02:59I know what you need.
01:03:01That's what happens to someone when you...
01:03:06When you...
01:03:08When you what?
01:03:11When you love someone.
01:03:14And I love you, Stella Evans.
01:03:23And I love you, Stella Evans.
01:03:33You love me?
01:03:36I do.
01:03:39I can't believe it's taken me so long to say it.
01:03:47Please tell me you feel the same.
01:03:57I don't know what I'm feeling.
01:03:59It's all just...
01:04:00It's too much.
01:04:05I understand.
01:04:14Hi, I'd like to pay a bill for Mary Evans.
01:04:18It has?
01:04:21By who?
01:04:26I see.
01:04:46A year ago, I gave up my baby girl.
01:04:52I had no choice and it broke my heart.
01:04:55And the chances are almost impossible, but I have to know.
01:05:00Could Emma be my daughter?
01:05:13Hello?
01:05:14I'd like to schedule a maternity test.
01:05:27Hey, Stella, do you...
01:05:30Everything okay?
01:05:31Fine.
01:05:38You seem...off.
01:05:52I'm just stressed.
01:05:57I just can't stop thinking about Emma's mother and how our lives could come crashing down over some maternity test.
01:06:03Then don't take it.
01:06:05What?
01:06:07No, I can't ask you to do that.
01:06:08That's not fair to you.
01:06:12Don't worry about what's fair to me.
01:06:13It's all I'm worried about.
01:06:16You mean more to me than this CEO position.
01:06:19He's trying to help, but if Emma's somehow mine, I can save Aston's job and his reputation.
01:06:27Just don't do anything rash, okay?
01:06:31We still have until tomorrow to figure it out.
01:06:37I need to ask.
01:06:40Does the name Andrew Belmont mean anything to you?
01:06:44No.
01:06:46Should it?
01:06:48Well, he paid for your mother's treatment.
01:06:52All ten million.
01:07:07Mom, who's Andrew Belmont?
01:07:15How do you know about him?
01:07:18He paid for your treatment.
01:07:20Who is he?
01:07:25Mom?
01:07:27Mom?
01:07:29Mom!
01:07:30Someone call a doctor!
01:07:32Mom!
01:07:49I spoke with the doctors.
01:07:54She's been put in a medically induced coma until the swelling in her brain subsides.
01:08:00It's all my fault if I wouldn't have pushed her.
01:08:03No, Estella, it is not your fault.
01:08:16I know, I know, and I know she's sick.
01:08:18I just wish there was something I could do.
01:08:20She's with the doctors now.
01:08:22She's getting the treatment she needs.
01:08:25It'll all be fine.
01:08:28No matter how much you keep blaming yourself, I'll say it again.
01:08:33It's not your fault.
01:08:42Okay, Emma, time to learn the truth.
01:09:11In breaking news, CEO Aston Montgomery has called a last-minute press conference to address the future of Montgomery Enterprises.
01:09:22Reporters have it on good authority that he is prepared to step down as CEO,
01:09:27handing the company over to his half-brother, Clive Montgomery, in the wake of a paternity scandal.
01:09:32Oh, my God.
01:09:53I can save him.
01:09:58Do you have anything to say about this?
01:10:01What do you say about the allegations and accusations against you?
01:10:04Mr. Montgomery, you do understand that not forcing your wife to take a maternity test is an admission of guilt, right?
01:10:11Which means you've been lying to everyone.
01:10:15Wait, we're not lying.
01:10:18I took the test.
01:10:20I have the results right here.
01:10:25I have the results right here.
01:10:27Over here, ma'am.
01:10:28Ma'am.
01:10:29Come on.
01:10:30Don't be timid, ma'am.
01:10:31Hey!
01:10:32You know how much I'm willing to pay for those?
01:10:34Not enough.
01:10:35Trust me.
01:10:36Over here, ma'am.
01:10:37Ma'am.
01:10:38Come on.
01:10:39Don't be timid, ma'am.
01:10:40Ma'am.
01:10:41What do you have to give us a quote?
01:10:42How long has this happened?
01:10:44You took the maternity test?
01:10:45Why?
01:10:46Aston, there's something I need to tell you.
01:10:48Show us the results, sweetheart.
01:10:50Prove your husband's not lying.
01:10:57I don't owe anyone proof.
01:10:59Believe me or don't.
01:11:00But I am Emma's mother.
01:11:02I believe you.
01:11:04Don't even think about it, Dahlia.
01:11:14This is so sweet.
01:11:18If only it mattered.
01:11:21You're too late, Stella.
01:11:23Aston already stepped down.
01:11:33You already stepped down?
01:11:35Yes.
01:11:36To protect you.
01:11:37To protect Emma.
01:11:38Aston, we were fine.
01:11:39All you've ever wanted to do is be safe.
01:11:41To be a great husband to you and a great father to Emma.
01:11:45That's all that matters to me.
01:11:47We can figure out the rest.
01:11:49It looks like you're working for me now, brother.
01:11:53I own the company now.
01:11:55Which means I owe you.
01:11:59Not quite.
01:12:03I just received an offer from Montgomery Enterprises.
01:12:06One that I couldn't refuse.
01:12:10Meet our buyer.
01:12:12Andrew Beaumont.
01:12:16Stella's father.
01:12:24Stella?
01:12:26You're just like your mother.
01:12:31This is ridiculous.
01:12:33You're trying to tell me that Stella's related to a billionaire?
01:12:38She's nothing but a piece of trash.
01:12:40Don't.
01:12:42Don't speak about my daughter that way.
01:12:44Your daughter?
01:12:46How dare you call me that?
01:12:48You left mom and I.
01:12:50No.
01:12:52Stella, I never left you.
01:12:54Your mother.
01:12:56She kicked me out.
01:12:58Because I wasn't the husband or the father that I needed to be.
01:13:02But I'm here now.
01:13:05To make it up to you.
01:13:07This company belongs to me.
01:13:09This company belongs to me.
01:13:11Not this low class peasant bitch.
01:13:14Ow! My baby!
01:13:17Damn, that felt good.
01:13:19Get out of my office or I'll have you arrested for assault.
01:13:23Actually, the office belongs to my daughter now.
01:13:28As does the company.
01:13:32What?
01:13:35I'm the CEO of Montgomery Enterprises?
01:13:44I'm the CEO of Montgomery Enterprises?
01:13:52Oh yes.
01:13:54Which means you get to decide how we get rid of Clive.
01:14:04You're fired.
01:14:24Effective immediately.
01:14:26You can't do that.
01:14:28Montgomery Enterprises belongs to her.
01:14:30She can do whatever she wants.
01:14:34This can't be happening.
01:14:42I planned everything perfectly.
01:14:45That little orphan would have made the perfect scandal if not for Stella interfering.
01:14:52And you!
01:14:54You were supposed to convince that little bitch that you were pregnant with Aston's baby.
01:14:59But no!
01:15:01You failed and fucked us all.
01:15:05I didn't.
01:15:09Clive, Clarissa, get the hell out of my office.
01:15:12You too, Dahlia.
01:15:13Get out!
01:15:14You can't kick me out.
01:15:16I'm Robert's wife.
01:15:18Not anymore.
01:15:20I want a divorce.
01:15:24What?
01:15:31What?
01:15:40I always thought she looked just like you when she was sleeping.
01:15:47I never thought I'd see her again.
01:15:51I never wanted to give her up, but...
01:15:54When mom got sick and...
01:15:57The medical bills, I just...
01:16:00I knew we couldn't afford it.
01:16:03That's all in the past.
01:16:07But I want to talk about our future.
01:16:13How would you feel about one more?
01:16:23This house is pretty big.
01:16:25Why stop at one?
01:16:28I like the way you think.
01:16:31So, what's your first order of business as CEO?
01:16:59Well, since I've already violated the employee handbook...
01:17:03Twice.
01:17:08I was thinking we could talk business.
01:17:12No one knows more about Montgomery Enterprises than you.
01:17:21I was hoping you might show me the ropes.
01:17:25I'd be happy to.
01:17:29Let's violate the handbook one more time.
01:17:59I'm pregnant.
01:18:29Hey.
01:18:32Your mother and I were just catching up.
01:18:36I still can't believe this.
01:18:40Forgive me for not telling you about your father sooner.
01:18:44When I got sick, I decided to write him.
01:18:47Forgiving him.
01:18:51I'm sorry.
01:18:54I never thought you would.
01:18:57And...
01:19:00I hope you can forgive me too.
01:19:14You saved me and my family.
01:19:17Of course I'll forgive you.
01:19:20You know, speaking of family...
01:19:23I'd really like to meet my grandbaby.
01:19:30Which one?
01:19:34You.
01:19:37Oh, Stella!
01:19:44Ask me anything.
01:19:48Allison, your assistant called and said it was an emergency.
01:19:53Stella Evans?
01:19:56Yes.
01:20:01Come with me.
01:20:11The last time I heard those words, I got roped into a fake marriage.
01:20:17Well, this time...
01:20:20I'm hoping you'll say yes to a real one.
01:20:34Allison, is that your mother's ring?
01:20:36It is.
01:20:38And you're the only person who's ever been worthy of it.
01:20:44Stella Evans, ever since you stepped into my office, you have changed the course of my life.
01:20:49You have given me a beautiful child.
01:20:52Children?
01:20:55I'm pregnant.
01:21:01I want forever with you.
01:21:03No deals, no schemes.
01:21:06Just us.
01:21:09Will you marry me?
01:21:14No.
01:21:19I can't.
01:21:27It's just, we've done this whole thing backwards.
01:21:30I want us to take our time.
01:21:33Okay.
01:21:35I can be patient.
01:21:38But when you're ready for forever, let me know.
01:21:42Because I'm all in, Stella Evans.
