00:00:00Housekeeping.
00:00:30We got a new CEO and he owns the hotel, plus he's hot and he's like royalty.
00:00:59Isn't he perfect? I need hippies for me like those countries or something.
00:01:09Peace with our CEO.
00:01:15Ugh, the sleazebag. I can't believe he had the nerve to walk out on me.
00:01:18Just cancel the room.
00:01:20Chloe, I can't. It's past cancellation time.
00:01:22Just say it to Claire Claire.
00:01:24I can't. They're cracking down on things.
00:01:26And with the hotel getting acquired, I could get fired.
00:01:28You know I can't leave the room.
00:01:30Maybe you should have thought of that before you booked a $5,000 night suite to bum some rich guy.
00:01:35He sniffed me.
00:01:36In more ways than one.
00:01:38Please, I'll pay you back.
00:01:40I can't. And it's under my name. I can't pay for it or management will fire me.
00:01:44I need this job for my mom. I don't have that kind of money.
00:01:48What kind of money?
00:01:50Chloe, what are you doing here?
00:01:53I have to get back to work.
00:01:55Chloe!
00:01:57Why can't I leave this place to deal with idiots?
00:02:00Ava, I see we have a guest in the presidential suite.
00:02:04Good. I'll be keeping track of it.
00:02:11Wow. Your best friend just cost you $5,000?
00:02:16What am I supposed to do with a $5,000 night suite?
00:02:20I mean, if you have to pay for it, you might as well enjoy it.
00:02:24Might as well enjoy it.
00:02:47I guess I'm just drinking my way into debt at this point.
00:02:54Mmm.
00:03:10Looks like my night just got better.
00:03:13Excuse me, I'm sorry.
00:03:20You look cute.
00:03:24Thanks.
00:03:55I slept with our CEO!
00:03:57What?
00:03:59I'm so sorry!
00:04:01I got a new job today.
00:04:03You're crazy!
00:04:05I'm not.
00:04:07I'm not!
00:04:09I'm not!
00:04:11I'm not!
00:04:13I'm not!
00:04:15I'm not!
00:04:17I'm not!
00:04:19I'm not!
00:04:21I'm not!
00:04:23What do I do?
00:04:24I'll cover for you.
00:04:25What?
00:04:26The new hotel comes down really hard and anyone that sleeps with the management, if she finds
00:04:27out it was you, you're going to get fired.
00:04:28I'm all in.
00:04:29Don't shoot Christine.
00:04:30You go.
00:04:31I'll pay for the room and put it under my name.
00:04:32Okay.
00:04:34I can't believe she bought it.
00:04:35Oh my God.
00:04:36Oh my God.
00:04:37Oh my God.

00:05:43I'm so sorry.
00:05:45I'm so sorry.
00:05:47I'm so sorry.
00:05:49Our new CEO is choosing his secretary.
00:05:51Whoever gets it gets a raise.
00:05:53Whoever gets it gets a raise.
00:05:55I wouldn't torture yourself with money.
00:05:57I wouldn't torture yourself with money.
00:05:59Ava, you're not exactly executive material.
00:06:01I heard he's a real duke from England.
00:06:03I've never seen a real aristocrat before.
00:06:05I've never seen a real aristocrat before.
00:06:07Do you think he wears an ascot?
00:06:09Has an accent?
00:06:11I read that his entire family's estate is beside Manhattan.
00:06:13I read that his entire family's estate is beside Manhattan.
00:06:15And he owns over a dozen hotels.
00:06:17He fired the entire Bel Air staff after two days.
00:06:19He fired the entire Bel Air staff after two days.
00:06:21Corporate Harrington offered me the VP position
00:06:23Corporate Harrington offered me the VP position
00:06:25in his luxury hotel group.
00:06:27As soon as the acquisition was settled,
00:06:29the Sinclair family has owned us for years
00:06:31and suddenly Daddy makes him CEO and he's here meddling.
00:06:33and suddenly Daddy makes him CEO and he's here meddling.
00:06:35I cannot let him get in the way of this sale.
00:06:37But boss,
00:06:39if you could recommend me as his secretary,
00:06:41I think it could help you keep an eye on him.
00:06:43I think it could help you keep an eye on him.
00:06:45Robert, I think a friend in the Duke's office.
00:06:47Robert, I think a friend in the Duke's office.
00:06:49Robert, I think a friend in the Duke's office.
00:06:51What are you staring at?
00:06:53Don't you have work to do?
00:06:55Weren't you wearing that yesterday?
00:06:57Your hair looks like you stuck your finger in a socket.
00:06:59Brush it!
00:07:01Why are you wearing one earring?
00:07:05It must have fallen off.
00:07:07How did the guest enjoy the presidential suite?
00:07:09How did the guest enjoy the presidential suite?
00:07:11I can't tell her I fucked my boss in the presidential suite.
00:07:13Who stayed there?
00:07:15Speak up!
00:07:17I don't remember his name.
00:07:25I better hide my ass
00:07:27so he doesn't see me.
00:07:43Speak of the devil.
00:07:45Mr. Secretary!
00:07:47Your Highness. Can I call you Your Highness?
00:07:49Duke.
00:07:51Can I please take a selfie with you?
00:07:53Of course.
00:08:01She's fine.
00:08:03Security.
00:08:05I worked really hard.
00:08:07He fired someone for a selfie?
00:08:09He definitely can't find out we slept together.
00:08:11Your Grace.
00:08:13It is an honor to have you here.
00:08:15I am Christine Bernard.
00:08:17Yes, I know who you are.
00:08:19Your reputation precedes you.
00:08:21You've been the GM for the last five years
00:08:23and helped in the acquisition of this hotel.
00:08:25Since you're new here,
00:08:27I would like to offer you my secretary Kate
00:08:29to assist you.
00:08:31Mr. Sinclair. Great to be working with you.
00:08:33Yes, I will need a new secretary,
00:08:35but I prefer to choose my own.
00:08:37By the way,
00:08:39I am calling off the acquisition.
00:08:41We're no longer sound.
00:08:43You can't call it off.
00:08:45I've already signed a deal with Mr. Arrington.
00:08:49My family owns this hotel,
00:08:51so I assure you I can do whatever I want.
00:08:53Now if you wish to
00:08:55keep your position, I suggest you don't mention
00:08:57this sale again.
00:08:59As you wish.
00:09:01Your Grace.
00:09:03Mr. Sinclair will do just fine.
00:09:05No need to suck it up.
00:09:13Mr. Sinclair,
00:09:15these are all the candidates for the secretary position.
00:09:19You really need to take a look at that.
00:09:21Please don't see me.
00:09:23Please don't see me.
00:09:25You there!
00:09:27Have we met?
00:09:29Is it her?
00:09:31I'm sorry, Mr. Sinclair.
00:09:33Sir,
00:09:35I'm not sure what you mean.
00:09:45I'm the archer.
00:09:51I want her.
00:09:53Excuse me?
00:09:55I want her.
00:09:57Excuse me?
00:09:59You're to be my new secretary.
00:10:01Should you accept?
00:10:03No.
00:10:05No, sir.
00:10:07I'm just not capable.
00:10:09Why her?
00:10:11She's just a stupid desk girl.
00:10:13Why her?
00:10:15She's the only one
00:10:17who didn't throw herself at Mr. Sinclair.
00:10:19Here's your card.
00:10:25Thank you
00:10:27so much for the offer,
00:10:29but I can't accept the job.
00:10:31Whatever.
00:10:33Someone else will gladly take it at $20,000 per month.
00:10:39$20,000?
00:10:41That's more than I make in six months.
00:10:43Yes, for sure.
00:10:45I'd be honored to be Mr. Sinclair's secretary.
00:10:55But how the hell am I supposed to hide
00:10:57who I am from my boss
00:10:59when he's my actual boss?
00:11:03Did you find her?
00:11:05Miss Archer was just fired
00:11:07for having an affair with the guest.
00:11:09Apparently, it took place on the premises
00:11:11and involved booking a suite at the hotel.
00:11:13What guest?
00:11:15I think it's you, sir.
00:11:17The girl who came to you last night
00:11:19was booked in her name.
00:11:21She was fired because of me.
00:11:29Screw you, Christine!
00:11:31There's nothing wrong
00:11:33with sleeping with a rich guy.
00:11:35It's not my fault you can't get laid.
00:11:39Ava, did you lock yourself out again?
00:11:43Coming!
00:11:47Oh, my God,
00:11:49what am I going to do?
00:12:01Can I help you?
00:12:03Oh, my God, her eyes are bloodshot.
00:12:05She's been crying.
00:12:07Chloe, Miss Archer,
00:12:09I'm Edmund Sinclair.
00:12:11We met last night.
00:12:13Now is not a good time.
00:12:15I apologize for your losing your job.
00:12:17I appreciate the apology, but
00:12:19I don't really know what else
00:12:21we have to talk about.
00:12:23Please,
00:12:25let me make it up to you.
00:12:31Are you going on a trip?
00:12:33What's he talking about?
00:12:35Oh, he thought I was leaving.
00:12:41Well, without a job,
00:12:43I can't pay the rent on my own,
00:12:45and I can't move home
00:12:47because my parents are dead,
00:12:49so I have to find
00:12:51a cheaper place by tomorrow.
00:12:53Listen, I appreciate you coming,
00:12:55but last night was a mistake.
00:12:57Let's just pretend
00:12:59it never happened.
00:13:01Besides, it's not like someone
00:13:03can magically give me my job back.
00:13:05Actually, I can.
00:13:07It's my hotel.
00:13:09Your hotel?
00:13:11Edmund Sinclair is the owner
00:13:13and new CEO.
00:13:15Oh my gosh, that's so embarrassing.
00:13:17I had no idea.
00:13:19I'd be happy to have you rehired.
00:13:21I can't work with Ava.
00:13:23She'll blow my cover.
00:13:25Thank you, but I don't think
00:13:27I can stand the gossip going back.
00:13:29I'd rather be homeless with my dignity.
00:13:31I just need to get back on my feet.
00:13:35Well,
00:13:37would you like to live with me?
00:13:39God, I'm good.
00:13:41Oscar worthy.
00:13:43Do you need to get that?
00:13:51Do you need to get that?
00:13:53Oh, I'm sure it's a telemarketer.
00:13:55You can't know I live with Ava.
00:13:57Actually, um,
00:13:59it's my sister.
00:14:01She's just been so concerned about me
00:14:03since everything happened.
00:14:05Chloe!
00:14:07I just got promoted.
00:14:09Hey, I can't really talk right now. Can we catch up later?
00:14:11Wait, are you home? I really want to celebrate with you.
00:14:13Yeah, I am.
00:14:15Okay, cool, bye.
00:14:23Do you live here with anyone?
00:14:25Nope, just me.
00:14:27Hanging around all by myself.
00:14:31As I said,
00:14:33if you'd like to live with me,
00:14:35you can do that.
00:14:45Ah!
00:14:47I'm moving in!
00:15:05Okay.
00:15:25What's a car like that doing in our neighborhood?
00:15:29You became our CEO's secretary?
00:15:31Yeah.
00:15:33$20,000 per month.
00:15:35That's enough to cover my mom's medical bills.
00:15:37Just be careful.
00:15:39Women are disposable to rich guys like that.
00:15:41Who knows what he really wants.
00:15:45It's a little hypocritical, don't you think?
00:15:47How many times have I warned you
00:15:49about all the rich dudes you date,
00:15:51and now you're giving me advice?
00:15:53I mean, I know he's a duke or whatever,
00:15:55but I was trying to protect you.
00:15:57Trying to protect me from the guy that was your target this morning?
00:15:59I was joking!
00:16:01I don't need him anymore.
00:16:03I don't need some guy to pay my bills.
00:16:05Besides, I have good news, too.
00:16:07I got a job.
00:16:09And I'm moving out!
00:16:11Really? What job?
00:16:13You weren't even looking. You just got fired.
00:16:15Wait, and why do you need to move out?
00:16:17Why are you questioning me?
00:16:19Why can't you just be happy for me?
00:16:21Yesterday, you spent like three months' salary on a room
00:16:23to bunk some rich guy.
00:16:25Now there's a town car outside,
00:16:27and suddenly you have a new job,
00:16:29and I think it's fair for me to be concerned.
00:16:31What the hell are you insinuating?
00:16:33Do you think I'm just another shameless gold digger
00:16:35like everybody else?
00:16:37You don't give a shit about me. I'm not a whore!
00:16:39I know! I'm sorry. I'm sorry.
00:16:41Look, that's not what I meant. Let's just talk about it.
00:16:43I'm done. I'm done.
00:16:45Is that your new job?
00:16:51You know what? You just don't want me to move out
00:16:53because you're worried I won't pay you your precious money.
00:16:55Well, here.
00:16:59What's this?
00:17:01I paid for your little hotel room
00:17:03and cleaned up your mess with your special guest.
00:17:05I'm done with you.
00:17:07Good evening.
00:17:09Nurse Bailey, how's my mom?
00:17:11Your mother is fine.
00:17:13I'm calling because your mother's medical bill
00:17:15is nearly past due.
00:17:17If you don't pay in one week,
00:17:19we're going to have to release her.
00:17:21No, no, no, no. I'm sorry.
00:17:23I'll pay the entire balance as soon as possible.
00:17:25I promise you.
00:17:27Madam...
00:17:35Hey Jack-Off, hold the elevator...
00:17:43I'm sorry Ms. Grant,
00:17:45I'm not familiar with the American term jack-off.
00:17:47If you could explain it to me...
00:17:51I'm sorry Ms. Grant,
00:17:53I'm not familiar with the American term jack-off.
00:17:55with the American term, jack-off,
00:17:56if you'd care to explain it to me.
00:17:59Um, never mind.
00:18:02Good morning, Mr. Sinclair.
00:18:05I just got word from her that she's decided to move in.
00:18:08What should I introduce her to all the staff at us?
00:18:12Trent?
00:18:14He called the girl who's gonna move into his house
00:18:17a friend?
00:18:18What a jerk.
00:18:20Richmond really are something.
00:18:23He slept with me and he had a girlfriend.
00:18:26Mr. Sinclair needs you to help his friend move.
00:18:29Asshole, of course.
00:18:32Perfect chance to see what kind of woman
00:18:33this future duchess is.
00:18:37I'll confirm with her and send you her address.
00:18:42Hello.
00:18:43Miss Archer, Mr. Sinclair's secretary
00:18:45will come to help you move.
00:18:47What time's convenient for you?
00:18:48His secretary?
00:18:49He means Ava.
00:18:51No need, I don't have much,
00:18:53so I can do it.
00:18:54Thanks, I will see you soon.
00:18:58Oh my God, this is the last time
00:18:59I'm ever doing this myself.
00:19:16Welcome, Miss Chloe.
00:19:18Ow, oh my God!
00:19:19Oh my God!
00:19:28Get your dress on.
00:19:31Sorry, you're going through my light.
00:19:38Oh, can't wait for this fabulous new life.
00:19:43Hashtag, yoga.
00:19:45Yoga.
00:19:47Paradise emoji.
00:19:49Ow!
00:19:51Here we are, your bedroom.
00:19:58This is Edmund's bedroom?
00:20:01No, but I'm supposed to be living with Edmund.
00:20:04Oh, I'm sorry, miss.
00:20:05The duke asked that you stay in this wing.
00:20:08His quarters are off limits to you.
00:20:10Well, that's nonsense.
00:20:11What are you still doing here?
00:20:14Actually,
00:20:17drop me a bath in Instacartain rain juice.
00:20:20Now.
00:20:27I don't know how you do business over there,
00:20:29but here, once the deal memo is signed,
00:20:32there's no turning back.
00:20:34Either move forward to the final agreement
00:20:36within one week, or pay the penalty.
00:20:40Or pay the penalty, which is $20 million.
00:20:45Those are the options.
00:20:47Oh my God!
00:20:49All you can do is you can't even deliver coffee.
00:20:52Get out!
00:20:54Oh, I'm sorry?
00:20:55This, his shirt is worth more than you.
00:20:57Stupid idiots.
00:20:59My apologies.
00:21:00Are you burned?
00:21:01Do we need to call an EMT?
00:21:02I'm fine.
00:21:03It's not her fault.
00:21:05Kristen, speak to my secretary.
00:21:07I'm going to get her fired.
00:21:09She answers to me, not you.
00:21:11And Cliff.
00:21:13I'm really sorry, sir.
00:21:17Sorry about your coffee.
00:21:19I'm Clifford Harrington, and you are?
00:21:22Ava Grant.
00:21:24I apologize again about your shirt.
00:21:26Please, let me get it dry cleaned.
00:21:30Is there something wrong, Mr. Harrington?
00:21:32No, you just remind me of someone.
00:21:36Ava Grant, is it?
00:21:37Yes, Mr. Harrington.
00:21:42I don't mean to speak out of turn,
00:21:46but when I was listening to the meeting,
00:21:48something dawned on me.
00:21:50Go ahead.
00:21:51Even though JPG Chains may not acquire M Hotel,
00:21:54we can still be close partners.
00:21:56There may be something to salvage here.
00:21:59What the hell do you know about corporate partnerships?
00:22:03I apologize.
00:22:04She is not qualified to even be in here.
00:22:06She should be a janitor.
00:22:08What?
00:22:09Christine.
00:22:10I'm willing to come back to the table,
00:22:13but only to your Miss Grant's proposal.
00:22:17What the fuck?
00:22:22No, no, Mr. Harrington, there is nothing to discuss.
00:22:26We have signed a deal memo.
00:22:28It is too late to back out of the acquisition.
00:22:31Things change.
00:22:33You mean to tell me you're willing to walk away
00:22:35from the hotel acquisition?
00:22:39If I see a collaboration plan, I can't refuse.
00:22:44Yes.
00:22:45In that case, we'll do our very best
00:22:47to provide you with a plan that satisfies you.
00:22:50Won't we, Miss Grant?
00:22:52Of course, Mr. Harrington.
00:22:59Amazing job, Ava.
00:23:01Why did Clifford change his mind because of my secretary?
00:23:05We'll see you soon.
00:23:06I'll go.
00:23:10You little bitch.
00:23:12You just killed my promotion.
00:23:14I swear I would make your life a living hell.
00:23:17You will be scrubbing toilets when I'm done with you.
00:23:22It can't be.
00:23:24Vic, where are you?
00:23:30Mr. Green, one of our shareholders,
00:23:32is throwing a party at 8 p.m. tonight.
00:23:34Mr. Clare would like you to go with him.
00:23:36As his driver?
00:23:38His guest.
00:23:40Mr. Clare, I'm sorry, but I have to go.
00:23:42I have to go.
00:23:43I have to go.
00:23:44I have to go.
00:23:45I have to go.
00:23:45I have to go.
00:23:46I have to go.
00:23:47I have to go.
00:23:48I have to go.
00:23:49I have to go.
00:23:50I have to go.
00:23:51His guest?
00:23:54Mr. Green, allow me to introduce Ms. Ava Gromit.
00:23:59Edmund, nice to meet you.
00:24:01I didn't know you were bringing your girlfriend.
00:24:03No, no, I'm not his...
00:24:05Ms. Gromit is my secretary.
00:24:07Oh, lucky for me.
00:24:09Well, I know this is a work event,
00:24:10so still have a good time.
00:24:12Oh, trust me, you don't want to see me drink.
00:24:15Oh, no, I do.
00:24:16Since we're gonna be working together,
00:24:18I think we should get a chance to know each other.
00:24:20Now, if you can out-drink me, Ms. Grant,
00:24:22I'll agree to work exclusively with them hotels.
00:24:39If that bet stands,
00:24:41then I'll do all the drinking tonight.
00:24:43I'll do all the drinking tonight.
00:24:45Then I'll do all the drinking tonight for Ms. Gromit.
00:24:48Now, if you'll excuse me, Ms. Grant,
00:24:50we would like to discuss the Oasis project in Vegas.
00:25:01Mr. Sinclair, are you okay?
00:25:03Look, I know you were trying to protect me
00:25:05and the Brits can drink,
00:25:06but if you can't handle your liquor,
00:25:07you should really stop.
00:25:09You were at least functional last time.
00:25:12What do you mean, last time?
00:25:16What do you mean, the last time?
00:25:18Sorry, sir?
00:25:19You said the last time you saw me drunk.
00:25:23Now you're just drunk and making things up.
00:25:25We should really get you home.
00:25:31Oh, come on.
00:25:32Let's get you inside.
00:25:41I'm gonna get you some water, okay?
00:25:46You smell nice.
00:25:49I have to go.
00:25:51Good night.
00:25:56Mr. Sinclair.
00:26:05You little slut.
00:26:12Have a good night.
00:26:14Hey, look.
00:26:18I didn't think you had it in you, Ava.
00:26:20Stealing my man in my home.
00:26:29It's okay, sweetie.
00:26:30I won't leave you.
00:26:33Yes, Laura.
00:26:36What do you mean, it's me?
00:26:38Your girlfriend.
00:26:39That's too good to be true.
00:26:45You're not my girlfriend, all right?
00:26:49You're here out of my kindness.
00:26:52When you get a job, you're out.
00:26:54Do you understand?
00:27:02Chloe, are you home?
00:27:07Oh, my God.
00:27:09She moved out?
00:27:12Smell Right?
00:27:14What's that supposed to mean?
00:27:16This is designer perfume.
00:27:17There's only like 500 bottles in the world.
00:27:24What's up?
00:27:25Chloe, where are you?
00:27:27I told you I moved.
00:27:28I didn't think you were serious.
00:27:30Actually, I have a question for you.
00:27:33I'm looking for a new perfume,
00:27:36and I always really liked yours.
00:27:39What do you think?
00:27:41Where did you get it?
00:27:43I think it's some generic brand.
00:27:45I think I got it at Nordstrom Rack.
00:27:47Well, could you send me a picture?
00:27:49I'm sorry we fought.
00:27:51I really miss you.
00:27:53Wearing your perfume makes me think of you.
00:27:55Maybe we'll let Ava smell.
00:27:59I miss you, too.
00:28:00Okay, perfect.
00:28:01Well, I gotta go.
00:28:02I'm really tired.
00:28:03Bye.
00:28:04Hello?
00:28:05Chloe?
00:28:07What is going on with her?
00:28:13Ava, you're too easy.
00:28:15Nordstrom Rack is trash.
00:28:17Why does Ed make me like him?
00:28:19Good night, madam.
00:28:21Oh, you.
00:28:23I need this perfume on my bedside table when I wake up.
00:28:26But stores are closed.
00:28:28That's a you problem.
00:28:37Good morning, Mr. Sinclair.
00:28:41James?
00:28:43Are you all right?
00:28:45I was bitten by my dog last night.
00:28:48Just roughhousing.
00:28:50I didn't know you had a dog, sir.
00:28:52I guess I'm the dog.
00:28:54Wolf, asshole.
00:28:56You know what they say, Mr. Sinclair.
00:28:58Dogs don't bite people unless they're provoked.
00:29:06What are they talking about?
00:29:20Hey.
00:29:22You.
00:29:23Go fetch me my package from the mail room.
00:29:26You deaf?
00:29:27Yoo-hoo.
00:29:28Receptionist.
00:29:29I'm talking to you.
00:29:31You know she's clumsy and useless.
00:29:33Are you sure you didn't want her to grab your package?
00:29:36She probably has a disease.
00:29:38Miss Bernard.
00:29:40First of all, I'm no longer the receptionist.
00:29:43Secondly, I don't take orders from you anymore.
00:29:47You have your own secretary.
00:29:49So I suggest you ask her.
00:29:51Rob!
00:29:52Oh.
00:29:53You've been the CEO's secretary for three days.
00:29:56You think you can talk to me like that?
00:29:58Get out of my way.
00:29:59I heard about your mom.
00:30:01If you get fired, they're going to have to unplug all those machines.
00:30:04And she'll die.
00:30:05It must be shitty having a daughter like you.
00:30:07One more word about my mom, and I swear to God I'll slap you.
00:30:11I dare you.
00:30:12You ungrateful little bitch.
00:30:14Christine will have to fire you.
00:30:16She'll have no choice.
00:30:17Let's test it.
00:30:25She hit me.
00:30:27Fire her.
00:30:28Unfortunately, I can't right now.
00:30:32But let's be realistic.
00:30:34That fop of a man is on vacation.
00:30:36And when he goes back to England, you are fired.
00:30:40Then mommy gets unplugged.
00:30:42How am I going to get fired if you get fired first?
00:30:46What would Mr. Sinclair do if he found out you negotiated a VP job with JPG Chains
00:30:52while you still collect money from his company?
00:30:57You shameless slut.
00:31:01You freak of desperation.
00:31:04I think you need a shower.
00:31:06Don't you agree?
00:31:18What's going on?
00:31:20Nothing.
00:31:22I forgot I have to turn in this report.
00:31:24I gotta go.
00:31:26Follow me.
00:31:30I'll keep these here for after I go to the gym.
00:31:32I'm really fine. It's not necessary.
00:31:45Mr. Sinclair.
00:31:48Thank you, Mr. Sinclair, for your help.
00:31:56Am I interrupting something?
00:31:57Don't you have to knock?
00:32:00No.
00:32:06So who's this rich guy Chloe's marrying?
00:32:12Marrying?
00:32:14She said she found a new job and moved out.
00:32:17Wait, you didn't know?
00:32:19Oh my god, you have to look at this.
00:32:21It's so hilarious.
00:32:23Why does this house look familiar?
00:32:26I'm sure all rich people's houses look similar.
00:32:29Look at her feet. It's like all over.
00:32:37What the hell?
00:32:39She blocked me.
00:32:42What?
00:32:44That's weird.
00:32:46You know what?
00:32:48She's definitely going to be at our class reunion.
00:32:50I know you hated school, but you should come with.
00:32:54Go talk to her. Find out what the hell is going on.
00:33:00Don't be so rude.
00:33:04Is that Ava Grant?
00:33:06I thought she was too cool for these things.
00:33:08Hey, Ava.
00:33:10I heard you finally got a position at M Hotel.
00:33:12Congrats.
00:33:13The M Hotel?
00:33:15Isn't that owned by the aristocracy?
00:33:17What are you doing, Ava?
00:33:19Don't get too excited.
00:33:20She's just a receptionist.
00:33:22Oh, don't be so rude.
00:33:25A receptionist is a perfectly good position
00:33:28for someone who isn't intelligent
00:33:30and wants to sleep her way to the top.
00:33:32Wow, so is that what you think of me, too, Julianne?
00:33:35You know what?
00:33:36Why don't you just shut the fuck up, both of you?
00:33:39Ava's the CEO's secretary now.
00:33:41She's making more money in a month than you both are making in a year.
00:33:44Really?
00:33:45So I guess you did sleep your way to the top.
00:33:48Doesn't surprise me.
00:33:49Makes sense, since you were voted
00:33:51most likely to lie on her back in high school.
00:33:54Hey, Julianne.
00:33:57You were a horrible bitter bitch in high school
00:34:00and you're a horrible bitter bitch now.
00:34:04Shit, Ava.
00:34:06You've got an attitude now.
00:34:08Bet you got that from your bestie, Chloe, eh?
00:34:10Hey, where is she anyway?
00:34:12Probably posting pictures of her Louie on Insta.
00:34:14She's so fake.
00:34:15I bet all those photos are staged.
00:34:18You know, you two are the perfect pair.
00:34:22Trash! They grew up to be trash.
00:34:24Okay, look, Julianne.
00:34:26The only reason you're acting this way
00:34:28is because you missed us.
00:34:30Your life was so fucking boring.
00:34:32You had to make it exciting by bullying us.
00:34:35I guess it's still boring.
00:34:37Did your husband leave you
00:34:39because you're such a fucking boring bitch?
00:34:43Long time no see, everyone.
00:34:51Who the hell are you?
00:34:53Chloe?
00:34:56Chloe?
00:34:59I brought gifts for everyone.
00:35:01I hope you like them.
00:35:07Is this a limited edition Hermes scarf?
00:35:11I can't believe it.
00:35:12Chloe, what happened to you?
00:35:14You look beautiful.
00:35:15Stunning!
00:35:16And elegant.
00:35:17Wow.
00:35:18Tell us what's going on.
00:35:21I just...
00:35:22Got a new job.
00:35:24I love your Insta.
00:35:26Are you actually living in a mansion with babes?
00:35:32I have to ask.
00:35:34Are you with the billionaire?
00:35:38Well, I like to keep my private life private.
00:35:42He's actually a trillionaire.
00:35:44Oh my God!
00:35:46I always knew you'd amount to something special.
00:35:50Chloe, where the hell are you taking me?
00:35:54What the hell are you doing?
00:35:56You're with a billionaire?
00:35:58A trillionaire, actually.
00:36:00And he's everything I deserve.
00:36:02Why did you lie to me?
00:36:04I didn't want you to feel bad because
00:36:06he's everything you ever wanted.
00:36:09You know I don't care about the money.
00:36:11I paid our entire rent for years.
00:36:14Wow, are you really asking me for money right now?
00:36:16Just give me a number, I'll pay whatever to get you to shut up.
00:36:18That's not what I'm saying.
00:36:20You're just jealous.
00:36:22Look, let's be realistic.
00:36:24We're different types of people.
00:36:26I'm rich, you're poor.
00:36:28We don't really have anything in common.
00:36:30So you're sleeping with some rich guy
00:36:32and suddenly I'm beneath you?
00:36:34You've always been beneath me.
00:36:38You know what?
00:36:40You're right.
00:36:42We're not the same kind of people.
00:36:44You're right.
00:36:46We're not the same kind of people.
00:36:58Oh, fuck.
00:37:00This even smells cheap.
00:37:15What the fuck?
00:37:23What the hell are you doing here?
00:37:25Eddie, you're here.
00:37:28Chloe, I thought I made it clear
00:37:30you're not to enter my personal space.
00:37:32I'm sorry.
00:37:34I was just so exhausted after job hunting all day
00:37:37and I didn't want to be alone in my big empty room.
00:37:40So I came in here to talk to you and apologize
00:37:42and I guess I fell asleep.
00:37:48I'm too tired to move.
00:37:50Will you carry me back, please?
00:37:52A scent.
00:37:54He likes my scent.
00:37:56Fine.
00:37:58It's getting late.
00:38:00I need to sleep.
00:38:04You don't really want to sleep, do you?
00:38:08Go back to your room.
00:38:13Wait.
00:38:20Were you wearing a pair of blue earrings that night?
00:38:23Blue earrings?
00:38:26I might have a pair, but
00:38:28you know, with everything that's happened
00:38:30and moving and getting settled in,
00:38:32I'm not totally sure where you are.
00:38:38You can go now.
00:38:40Am I pleased to escort Miss Archer to her room?
00:38:45Chloe,
00:38:47you're a guest in this house.
00:38:49You have to stay out of my private quarters.
00:38:51Is that clear?
00:38:52Dammit, what?
00:38:53It's so weird over earrings.
00:39:11What?
00:39:14Ava, you scheming bitch.
00:39:16You left your earring for him to find.
00:39:18Do you think we're playing Cinderella?
00:39:20Well, it's midnight.
00:39:22Ball's over, bitch.
00:39:27We need to talk.
00:39:29Now.
00:39:31I may be poor,
00:39:33but I still pay the rent.
00:39:35Hand over the key.
00:39:37I'm sorry.
00:39:39Look, we both said things
00:39:41that we didn't mean yesterday.
00:39:43I didn't tell you about my boyfriend
00:39:44because I didn't want you to worry.
00:39:46That's not all.
00:39:48Why else are you here?
00:39:50To apologize.
00:39:52Look,
00:39:54I brought a peace offering.
00:39:58I accept your apology,
00:40:00but you know I don't care about that stuff.
00:40:02I care about you.
00:40:04I'm a lot more stable now,
00:40:06and I can cover the rent.
00:40:07What as our CEO have you doing
00:40:09that you're making so much money?
00:40:11What you working on?
00:40:13Just this presentation
00:40:15I've been working on for over a week.
00:40:17We have a super important meeting this afternoon
00:40:19with JPG's chairman.
00:40:21My boss asked me to handle it.
00:40:23Wow, sounds like you're his right hand,
00:40:25not just his secretary.
00:40:27I guess.
00:40:29It would be the dream job
00:40:31if Christine would stop picking on me.
00:40:33She keeps trying to get me fired.
00:40:35I mean, that's terrible.
00:40:37Can she even do that?
00:40:41Not if Edmund has my back.
00:40:43You're calling him Edmund?
00:40:45Wow.
00:40:47You've really fallen for him, haven't you?
00:40:49I mean,
00:40:51royal title doesn't make him a good guy.
00:40:53Just be careful, Ava.
00:40:55He's just my boss.
00:40:57That's all.
00:40:59Besides, he has a girlfriend.
00:41:01Oh.
00:41:03Oh, um, I just got this new dress
00:41:05that would go perfectly with those blue earrings
00:41:07your mom got you for Christmas.
00:41:09Can I borrow them?
00:41:11You're living the high life now.
00:41:13Why do you want my earrings?
00:41:15And I only have one left, unfortunately.
00:41:17Oh, that's fine. That's the new trend.
00:41:23Perfect.
00:41:33Okay.
00:41:35Okay, please make sure to give it back to me.
00:41:37It means a lot.
00:41:39Yeah, of course.
00:41:41Well, I've got to go.
00:41:43You know what? You use that one.
00:41:47I'll take this off your hands.
00:41:49It reminds me of you.
00:41:51Okay.
00:41:53Sure.
00:42:03Who the hell are you?
00:42:09Is this some sort of
00:42:11revenge thing for firing you?
00:42:13I'm calling security.
00:42:15No need.
00:42:17My boyfriend owns the place.
00:42:19Boyfriend?
00:42:21Yeah.
00:42:23I'm Edmund Sinclair's
00:42:25live-in girlfriend.
00:42:27I'm Edmund Sinclair's
00:42:29live-in girlfriend.
00:42:33You're the original.
00:42:35I told you.
00:42:37I'm Edmund Sinclair's
00:42:39live-in girlfriend.
00:42:41Okay.
00:42:43So what brings
00:42:45you here, Miss Archer?
00:42:47Thought that would change the tenor
00:42:49of this conversation.
00:42:51I heard you want to get rid of Ava Grant.
00:42:53And I heard the two of you were best friends.
00:42:55Not anymore.
00:42:57She seduced Edmund last night in our living room.
00:42:59I knew there was something up with her.
00:43:01What can I do?
00:43:03Edmund will never let me fire her.
00:43:05Well, you can't protect her
00:43:07if she keeps messing up her job.
00:43:09I have a feeling
00:43:11that today's important meeting
00:43:13may be a little more
00:43:15dramatic than expected.
00:43:19We'll now have Miss Grant
00:43:21present the strategy collaboration plan
00:43:23between M-Hotel and J.P.G.J.
00:43:33What?
00:43:35No, it's gone!
00:43:37After today, no one will be able
00:43:39to stop me from becoming the Duchess.
00:43:53I'm sorry.
00:43:55The presentation I worked on is gone.
00:43:57What do you mean it's...
00:43:59gone?
00:44:01I don't know. It's my fault.
00:44:03It's not your fault.
00:44:05It's our fault.
00:44:07We're allowing an entry-level employee
00:44:09to participate in our daily management.
00:44:11You've damaged our reputation
00:44:13in front of our valuable partner,
00:44:15and you've probably cost us millions of dollars.
00:44:17I'm sorry, Ava, but you are fired.
00:44:19Kristen, let her
00:44:21finish the presentation.
00:44:25Let her
00:44:27finish the presentation.
00:44:29Mr. Harrington, how can she even...
00:44:31It's a joke!
00:44:33I said, let her finish the presentation.
00:44:37It's okay, kid.
00:44:39You've prepared.
00:44:41You can present without the files.
00:44:43What we have here
00:44:45is an opportunity
00:44:47for both of our companies
00:44:49to grow together.
00:44:51What the fuck?
00:44:53Why is Mr. Harrington on her side every time?
00:44:55And through this symbiotic relationship,
00:44:57we'll not only give our guests
00:44:59the best possible experience,
00:45:01but increase profit margins
00:45:03in ways we could possibly imagine.
00:45:09Well, Mr. Harrington,
00:45:11I hope that our proposal was helpful.
00:45:13Very impressive.
00:45:15I could go with it.
00:45:17But only with
00:45:19one condition.
00:45:21She handles
00:45:23all the details.
00:45:27Of course.
00:45:29From now on, Ava will be in charge
00:45:31of the entire collaboration project.
00:45:37Young lady,
00:45:39you have a bright future ahead of you.
00:45:41I really appreciate it, Mr. Harrington.
00:45:45Sir, I don't mean to speak out of turn,
00:45:47but I don't have much experience.
00:45:49Why do you want me to take this on?
00:45:51Because I see the potential in you.
00:45:55And you remind me of my daughter.
00:45:57Does she work at the company?
00:45:59No, I haven't seen her in years.
00:46:03I thought after my son's accident
00:46:05she would resurface.
00:46:07I've tried to find her, but
00:46:09I think she stays away from me
00:46:11because
00:46:13she hates me.
00:46:15I doubt that.
00:46:17I think if you're meant to find each other,
00:46:19you will.
00:46:21I hope so.
00:46:25Would I be fortunate enough
00:46:27to invite you to dinner sometime,
00:46:29Miss Ava?
00:46:31Of course.
00:46:33It would be my honor.
00:46:41How could a flower be empty
00:46:43when there's snow on your head?
00:46:45Stop thinking about it.
00:46:47I'm taking you out to eat to celebrate the deal with Clifford.
00:46:49Pick anything you want.
00:46:51Anything?
00:46:53Of course.
00:46:55I'll drive, so you don't change your mind.
00:46:57Okay.
00:47:05How'd it go?
00:47:07Is she gone for good?
00:47:09No.
00:47:11She's actually become the project leader.
00:47:13And your boyfriend's taking her out to celebrate.
00:47:15What the hell?
00:47:17Just the two of them?
00:47:19I'm going to kill that bitch.
00:47:21Don't resort to murder just yet.
00:47:23I have another idea.
00:47:25Hey.
00:47:27We've arrived.
00:47:29You sure we're in the right place?
00:47:31I don't see many restaurants.
00:47:37This is my favorite restaurant.
00:47:43I'm sorry.
00:47:45I didn't realize you meant something so down-to-earth.
00:47:49Excuse me?
00:47:51These are the best tacos in L.A.
00:47:53I kept dying with royalty, but you've never had these.
00:47:55Every time something happy would happen,
00:47:57my mom would bring me here.
00:48:03No way.
00:48:05Is it your first time having a taco?
00:48:09I suppose today would be my first time.
00:48:11Well, then there's a first time for everything,
00:48:13in your grace.
00:48:15Let's go.
00:48:19My lady.
00:48:21Oh.
00:48:23Yes.
00:48:39I'll handle this.
00:48:41Okay.
00:48:43What would you like?
00:48:45Whatever you order.
00:48:47Good evening, madam.
00:48:49Four of your finest carnivorous tacos,
00:48:51please.
00:48:53Four combination tacos.
00:48:55Two fish tacos
00:48:57and two
00:48:59barberacola tacos, please.
00:49:01How many people are you feeding?
00:49:03Just the two of us.
00:49:05Is that enough food?
00:49:07Unless your girlfriend has a meeting in a week.
00:49:11I'm not his girlfriend.
00:49:13He's just my boss.
00:49:15Girl, what are you waiting for?
00:49:17Who cares if he's your boss?
00:49:19If I was your age,
00:49:21I'd snatch you.
00:49:25Um, where do I swipe this?
00:49:29Are you serious?
00:49:33Here you go.
00:49:35He's your boyfriend
00:49:37or boss or whatever.
00:49:39That's in England?
00:49:41Kind of.
00:49:43Oh, then I'd definitely
00:49:45like him now.
00:49:47What are you two laughing about?
00:49:49Nothing.
00:49:51Slightly embarrassing?
00:49:53I've never let a woman pay for my meal before.
00:49:55Here you go.
00:50:01Well, enjoy your first meal
00:50:03paid for by a woman.
00:50:09Oh,
00:50:11that is
00:50:13better, my love.
00:50:15You know what to do?
00:50:27You're actually fun when you're out of the office.
00:50:29Well, now I know what you really think of me.
00:50:31I must say, this barbacoa
00:50:33does seem interesting.
00:50:35It's barbacoa, and you'll love it.
00:50:37Barbacoa?
00:50:39Oh!
00:50:41Oh!
00:50:47Can I ask
00:50:49why you're so determined to keep this hotel?
00:50:53Um,
00:50:55my dad let my mum
00:50:57design one of our hotels.
00:50:59This was the one.
00:51:01She, uh,
00:51:03poured all her love into it.
00:51:05It was the last
00:51:07and only hotel she ever designed
00:51:09before she passed.
00:51:11I used to ride around the lobby
00:51:13on her rollercoats.
00:51:17I'm sorry.
00:51:21I know what it feels like
00:51:23to lose someone you love.
00:51:25My mum,
00:51:29she has late-stage brain cancer,
00:51:31and she's barely awake now.
00:51:37Can I have a bite of that?
00:51:41No!
00:51:43It's mine!
00:52:07It's not right.
00:52:11Do you have a girlfriend?
00:52:13She's not my girlfriend.
00:52:17Then why does she live in your house?
00:52:21It's complicated.
00:52:25Let me change it for you.
00:52:29How did you know?
00:52:31It was a gift from a friend.
00:52:33My mum always told me that I had
00:52:35a sense of smell of Wilbur.
00:52:37Wilbur?
00:52:39Our dog.
00:52:41Oh!
00:52:43I'll take that as a compliment.
00:52:51Were you the woman that night
00:52:53in the hotel room?
00:52:57I...
00:53:01No.
00:53:03Do you know what you mean?
00:53:05In the presidential suite.
00:53:09I leave work every day.
00:53:11I...
00:53:13I'm not going to be renting presidential suites.
00:53:19Well,
00:53:21I guess I was wrong then.
00:53:23I...
00:53:25I...
00:53:31This is the necklace I had custom-made
00:53:33for Vic's twelfth birthday.
00:53:35How does Ava have it?
00:53:37Find out who she really is.
00:53:45You're back!
00:53:47Look, I made you shots.
00:53:49Try one. Tell me what you like.
00:53:51What's that?
00:53:53The earring.
00:53:55I was so out of it when you asked me about it last night,
00:53:57I totally forgot what you were talking about.
00:53:59You remember it, don't you?
00:54:01I was wearing them the night we met.
00:54:03I lost the other one, but
00:54:05I figured it symbolised our meeting,
00:54:07so I thought I'd wear it anyway.
00:54:09You like?
00:54:11What do you mean?
00:54:13Nothing.
00:54:15Wait here.
00:54:17Now you have
00:54:19no reason to doubt me.
00:54:25You found it!
00:54:27Oh my gosh, this is like a real fairy tale!
00:54:29A prince putting his glass slipper
00:54:31on his true Cinderella.
00:54:33Can you put it on me?
00:54:35So they can be reunited like you.
00:54:43Chloe,
00:54:45I offered you a place to stay here
00:54:47temporarily. You've been here a month.
00:54:49I think you should move out.
00:54:51What's wrong? Why are you being so cold?
00:54:53I lost my job because of you.
00:54:55I offered to give you a new one.
00:54:57I'd like you to leave
00:54:59first thing tomorrow morning.
00:55:01You want me and the baby out?
00:55:03Fine. We'll leave tomorrow.
00:55:05Wait a minute.
00:55:07What do you mean, baby?
00:55:11I'm pregnant.
00:55:13What?
00:55:19Miss Chloe, you're absolutely fine.
00:55:21Just take some rest.
00:55:23I'll be fine once I have an ultrasound
00:55:25and a positive pregnancy test.
00:55:31I'll see to it the test results are sent to you.
00:55:37How is this possible?
00:55:39We were together once.
00:55:41I didn't want to tell you
00:55:43because I didn't want you to freak out.
00:55:45I'm fully prepared to take care of this baby
00:55:47on my own.
00:55:49If you still want to sleep, we'll leave tomorrow.
00:55:51It's okay.
00:55:53Just stay here comfortably.
00:55:55I'll have the staff look after you.
00:55:57What I really want
00:55:59is for you to take care of me.
00:56:01I want it to be like you and me.
00:56:03I need time.
00:56:07For God's sake.
00:56:09What the hell does it take?
00:56:15Okay, what was so urgent that I needed to get here right away?
00:56:17Rupert Harrington from JPG
00:56:19has invited Ava
00:56:21to a private dinner
00:56:23at his house tonight.
00:56:25What? Why?
00:56:27Exactly.
00:56:29Why would a stubborn asshole who's been hell-bent
00:56:31on acquiring a motel
00:56:33suddenly change his attitude?
00:56:35For that bitch.
00:56:37Because what's between her legs?
00:56:39That's why.
00:56:43I can't believe she'd be that low.
00:56:45Clinging onto Edmund
00:56:47and now seducing Clifford.
00:56:49He's old enough to be her grandfather.
00:56:51Soon the whole world will know she's a whore.
00:56:53Kate's already following.
00:57:03Mom,
00:57:05I think I'm falling for someone I shouldn't.
00:57:09When I was young,
00:57:11I fell in love with a man no one wanted me to be with.
00:57:15Dad?
00:57:17But he was the perfect guy.
00:57:19He was.
00:57:21And he was our family's driver.
00:57:25Wait, why did you have a driver?
00:57:27I never told you this.
00:57:31I was born into a wealthy family.
00:57:33When I ran away with your father,
00:57:35I gave up everything.
00:57:39But I never regretted it for a second.
00:57:43So Ava,
00:57:45if you love someone,
00:57:47be brave.
00:57:49And if you need help being brave,
00:57:51just look at that lock.
00:57:55I'll always be with you.
00:57:57Don't say that.
00:57:59You're with me now.
00:58:03Mr. Harrington?
00:58:05What are you doing here?
00:58:15Mr. Harrington?
00:58:17What are you doing here?
00:58:21Victoria.
00:58:23Dad?
00:58:29I'm so sorry.
00:58:31I kicked you off like that.
00:58:35I'm sorry we lost so much time.
00:58:37Mom, what's going on?
00:58:43It's your grandpa, Ava.
00:58:47This is for the best.
00:58:49When I'm gone,
00:58:51you'll have each other to rely on.
00:58:57You're going to be okay.
00:58:59It's for the best cancer treatment
00:59:01in the country.
00:59:05Thank you,
00:59:07Mr. Harrington.
00:59:09No more Mr. Harrington.
00:59:13Grandpa.
00:59:17Oh my god.
00:59:19It's actually true.
00:59:21He's meeting her mother.
00:59:23Dad.
00:59:27I've been here for a while.
00:59:29It's very comfortable.
00:59:31That house up there is beautiful.
00:59:33The fountain over here.
00:59:39It's still surreal
00:59:41how I found you two.
00:59:43You know, Ava,
00:59:47I'd like you to inherit JPG.
00:59:49And
00:59:51we should make our relationship
00:59:53public.
00:59:55I appreciate it.
00:59:57But I'm not ready for everyone to know.
00:59:59And besides,
01:00:01I'm not ready to leave M Hotel just yet.
01:00:03You mean you're not ready
01:00:05to leave Edmond.
01:00:09I understand.
01:00:11Just let me know when you're ready.
01:00:19Book two flights to Seattle.
01:00:21We have a visit with a partnering hotel.
01:00:23We?
01:00:25You're going with me.
01:00:27You're going with me.
01:00:29Gotcha.
01:00:49Wait.
01:00:57Wait.
01:00:59What happened?
01:01:11Don't tell me we...
01:01:13What?
01:01:15You accidentally slept with your boss twice in a month?
01:01:17What is wrong with you?
01:01:19What?
01:01:21Whatever happened last night.
01:01:23Just forget about it.
01:01:25You don't know what happened last night.
01:01:31What did you just say?
01:01:33Give me a key.
01:01:43Oh, no.
01:01:45Oh, no.
01:01:51Ava, what are you doing?
01:01:53Just getting comfortable.
01:02:01Ava, we really should...
01:02:07Handsome.
01:02:09Looks like my night
01:02:11just got better.
01:02:13What are you saying?
01:02:15Come on, Eddie.
01:02:17Do you like tequila?
01:02:27Ava?
01:02:31Ava?
01:02:37No, no, no.
01:02:39No, no, no.
01:02:41Oh, no.
01:02:43I'm really sorry.
01:02:45Okay, but...
01:02:47So we didn't...
01:02:49We did not.
01:02:51We did the other time, though.
01:02:53What?
01:02:57I'm not sure
01:02:59what you're talking about.
01:03:05Looks like my night just got better.
01:03:07Looks like my night just got better.
01:03:09Do you like tequila?
01:03:11Do you like tequila?
01:03:17You were with the mysterious woman that night.
01:03:19That Mr. Sinclair.
01:03:21I think you're having me
01:03:23confused with someone else.
01:03:25I think I'd remember if we...
01:03:27You know.
01:03:31Honestly, I'm a bit disappointed.
01:03:35I've been trying to ignore my feelings,
01:03:37but...
01:03:39I can't.
01:03:41I care about you, Ava.
01:03:43More than I should.
01:03:45But you shouldn't.
01:03:47Why shouldn't I?
01:03:49You know why.
01:03:51I just wanted to be with you.
01:03:53To talk to you.
01:03:55To dream beside you.
01:03:57To explore your life.
01:04:01Above all, to shield you
01:04:03from the sorrows of this world.
01:04:07I'm single.
01:04:09What am I supposed to do?
01:04:11Be your mistress?
01:04:13What about your girlfriend?
01:04:15What about your girlfriend?
01:04:19She's...
01:04:21I'm pregnant.
01:04:25It's complicated.
01:04:29So then this isn't happening.
01:04:31And the only relationship between us
01:04:33is a professional one.
01:04:35No.
01:04:37Excuse me.
01:04:45I'll have your shirt dry-cleaned, sir.
01:04:51Edwin hasn't been in the house for two days.
01:04:53Do you know where he is?
01:04:55You should probably ask your best friend.
01:04:57She's traveling with him.
01:04:59What the hell? They're together all the time now.
01:05:01Probably sharing a hotel room
01:05:03at the moment.
01:05:05You horny slut.
01:05:07It's none of your school.
01:05:09And now you have to have Edmund too?
01:05:11Um, ma'am.
01:05:13That vase was acquired by Mr. Sinclair
01:05:15at an auction for two million dollars.
01:05:17I don't give a shit.
01:05:19I don't give a shit.
01:05:31How?
01:05:33Why'd you make it so hot?
01:05:35Stupid me.
01:05:37What have you done?
01:05:43What have you done?
01:05:45You lost your mind.
01:05:47Are you okay?
01:05:49Pregnancy hormones, you know.
01:05:51I just get so sad when you're not home.
01:05:53Where have you been?
01:05:55On a business trip.
01:05:57Like that little bitch.
01:05:59You know, I think it's time that we talk about our future.
01:06:01I think we should get married
01:06:03as soon as possible, for the baby.
01:06:05I had a long day of traveling.
01:06:07I need some rest.
01:06:11Emily, where's my vase?
01:06:13I'm afraid.
01:06:17I'm afraid Madam knocked it over.
01:06:21It wasn't intentional.
01:06:23I was just holding it in my vase.
01:06:25Damn.
01:06:31Smirk all you want, dumbass maid.
01:06:33I'll fire you
01:06:35when I'm the Duchess.
01:06:37I heard the only reason she became
01:06:39the host of her annual press conference
01:06:41is because she went on a business trip
01:06:43with the CEO,
01:06:45which was definitely not business.
01:06:47She's ruthless.
01:06:49Does she care
01:06:51that he has a new girlfriend?
01:06:53No.
01:06:55She even seduced him right in front of her.
01:06:57And there's something else about her.
01:06:59What?
01:07:01I don't know.
01:07:03I don't know.
01:07:05There's something else about her.
01:07:07Come here.
01:07:09She hooked up
01:07:11J.P.G.'s chairman.
01:07:13No fucking way.
01:07:17That's gross.
01:07:19That'd be Sinclair's heart.
01:07:25Mr. Sinclair,
01:07:27you wanted to see me?
01:07:29Yes, it is for you.
01:07:31What's this for?
01:07:33Today's a big day.
01:07:35You're leading the press conference,
01:07:37so you should look good on.
01:07:41Wow.
01:07:43This is gorgeous.
01:07:45I've never worn anything this beautiful.
01:07:47Good. Wear it.
01:07:49And hail the press conference.
01:07:51I will, sir. Thank you.
01:07:53This just came from Mr. Harrington.
01:07:55Where did he go?
01:07:57Apparently,
01:07:59Mr. Harrington
01:08:01also thinks
01:08:03I dress too plainly.
01:08:05Go get ready.
01:08:07We start in an hour.
01:08:13Sir, why is Harrington
01:08:15sending your secretary gifts?
01:08:17It's a little strange.
01:08:19I don't pay you to gossip, James.
01:08:27Photographic evidence
01:08:29is much more impactful.
01:08:35All of the shareholders
01:08:37will be at the press conference this afternoon.
01:08:41We will make sure Ava
01:08:43is destroyed.
01:08:45Once this gets out, Clifford Harrington
01:08:47will have no choice but to distance himself
01:08:49from Ava to protect his reputation,
01:08:51and Edmund will be done with her.
01:08:53Well, in that case,
01:08:55there is no need for the disguise, Duchess.
01:08:59Your competition is about to lose.
01:09:01And your position is secure.
01:09:07Chloe!
01:09:09What are you doing here?
01:09:11I was just here for lunch.
01:09:15At our office building?
01:09:17Why didn't you tell me? We could catch up.
01:09:19Wait.
01:09:21How do you have both of my earrings?
01:09:23I only like you one.
01:09:25I lost the other one that night at the hotel with Edmund.
01:09:35I'll take this off your hands.
01:09:37Do you mind?
01:09:39I paid for your little hotel room
01:09:41and cleaned up your mess
01:09:43with your special guest.
01:09:45A billionaire? A trillionaire, actually.
01:09:47I didn't want you to feel bad because
01:09:49he's everything you ever wanted.
01:09:51It was you.
01:09:55You're the girl who moved in with Edmund.
01:09:57That's what Edmund said.
01:09:59That he mistook someone else for me.
01:10:01You've been pretending to be me
01:10:03since that night. I have to tell him.
01:10:05No, Ava, Ava, listen to me.
01:10:07It was an accident.
01:10:09I...
01:10:11I was trying to help you.
01:10:13And we fell for each other.
01:10:15I wish I could give you everything back,
01:10:17but it's complicated now.
01:10:19It's not just about you.
01:10:21I'm done taking care of you.
01:10:23I'm having his baby.
01:10:29You're pregnant?
01:10:31Please, please don't tell him the truth.
01:10:33If you do, he's going to leave me
01:10:35and the baby and I can't be a single mom.
01:10:37I don't know how to do that.
01:10:39Chloe, you're such a fool.
01:10:41This is the only thing I've ever wanted.
01:10:45Please, please take care of me
01:10:47like you always do.
01:10:49Please let me have him.
01:10:53I promise I won't tell him.
01:10:57I'll quit after the press conference
01:10:59and I'll never see him again.
01:11:01You can have him.
01:11:05I'm so, so sorry
01:11:07about everything that I've done to you.
01:11:11You'll always be my best friend.
01:11:17I love you.
01:11:37Is that the same secretary?
01:11:41Miss Grant looks absolutely incredible today.
01:11:43She's wearing a dress
01:11:45set by Mr. Harrington.
01:11:49First off,
01:11:51I want to thank you all
01:11:53for attending our press conference.
01:11:55I am thrilled to announce
01:11:57the strategy collaboration
01:11:59between M-Hotel and JPG.
01:12:01As you all know,
01:12:03this has been a huge undertaking.
01:12:05I didn't know that cow could clean up that well.
01:12:07And we are glad
01:12:09to have finally reached an agreement
01:12:11with JPG and welcome
01:12:13Mr. Harrington and his company
01:12:15into our family.
01:12:29What's happening?
01:12:35What's happening?
01:12:37Is your Clifford Harrington's mistress
01:12:39and you've been spying on M-Hotels?
01:12:45What?
01:12:47How much did Clifford pay you to make this deal?
01:12:49Nothing. Are you crazy?
01:12:51This woman is trying to set me up.
01:12:53She's a liar.
01:12:55I'm a liar?
01:12:57Why would the chairman of JPG
01:12:59go to such great lengths for a mere secretary
01:13:01unless he was screwed?
01:13:03Is this true?
01:13:05M-Hotel could not allow
01:13:07behavior like this.
01:13:09These photos don't prove anything.
01:13:15Ms. Grant and Mr. Harrington's friendship
01:13:17has absolutely nothing to do with our meeting today.
01:13:19Friendship?
01:13:21Clifford has been paying for all of her mother's medical bills.
01:13:23That's more than a friend.
01:13:25Don't you think?
01:13:27Mr. Harrington and I's relationship
01:13:29is an unusual one.
01:13:31So you finally admit it.
01:13:33Ms. Grant, you are fired.
01:13:35We will investigate the corporate espionage
01:13:37and our lawyers
01:13:39will be in touch.
01:13:41We will do
01:13:43no such thing.
01:13:53It's true.
01:13:55She is doing her own deal.
01:13:57See?
01:13:59Look at them. I wasn't lying.
01:14:01She's a whore.
01:14:05How dare you
01:14:07talk about my granddaughter like that?
01:14:09Granddaughter?
01:14:11What the fuck?
01:14:13This shit just got freaky.
01:14:15I wanted to respect Ava's wishes
01:14:17and keep her
01:14:19true identity private
01:14:21but I couldn't let her reputation get ruined
01:14:23like this.
01:14:25May I introduce
01:14:27Ava Harrington,
01:14:29my granddaughter
01:14:31and heiress
01:14:33and future president of J.P.G.
01:14:35Hotel Group.
01:14:45She's your
01:14:47granddaughter?
01:14:49Oh my god, that's why you gave all that money to your mom.
01:14:51I was getting
01:14:53the wrong information.
01:14:55How
01:14:57dare you
01:14:59frame Mrs. Grant?
01:15:01You wicked bitch.
01:15:03You blamed her for stealing a job
01:15:05that you wanted and then you set her up
01:15:07and you used me
01:15:09in the process. I never should have
01:15:11listened to you. Get out!
01:15:13I never want to see your disgusting
01:15:15face again. But boss, I did
01:15:17exactly as you told me to. Don't fire me.
01:15:19Ava,
01:15:21I have always
01:15:23admired your talent.
01:15:25This whole situation is just
01:15:27a big misunderstanding. Let's
01:15:29rewind. I think we should
01:15:31and you should leave.
01:15:33Don't we need to
01:15:35finish the meeting? Yes.
01:15:37We'll continue, but without you
01:15:39present. You're
01:15:41no longer the GM of the hotels.
01:15:43You're fired.
01:15:45You're fired.
01:15:47But Mr. Sinclair,
01:15:49everything I've done has been for
01:15:51the best interest of this company.
01:15:53You can't just kick me out of here.
01:15:55Security!
01:15:59No!
01:16:01Stop!
01:16:03No!
01:16:07There's one
01:16:09more.
01:16:11Her, in the back.
01:16:13I started investigating the
01:16:15moment I heard these outrageous
01:16:17rumors.
01:16:19This morning, I learned that this
01:16:21woman and Christine
01:16:23had been working together
01:16:25to destroy my granddaughter.
01:16:29After
01:16:31everything I gave up for you,
01:16:33you'd do this to me?
01:16:35You know me, and you'd lie to me
01:16:37like this?
01:16:39You're my best friend.
01:16:41I don't even recognize you anymore.
01:16:43Best friend?
01:16:45I was manipulated
01:16:47by Christine. I really thought
01:16:49you and Clifford were involved.
01:16:51The first time my presentation got deleted,
01:16:53it was you, wasn't it?
01:16:55You had Edmund, but that wasn't enough.
01:16:57You had to ruin my career, too.
01:16:59You were the only one with access to my
01:17:01computer before the meeting.
01:17:03Ava, I would never do anything to her.
01:17:05You have to believe me.
01:17:07No, I don't. You lie
01:17:09again and again. I don't know
01:17:11who you are anymore.
01:17:13I don't understand. You two know each other.
01:17:15She's my roommate.
01:17:17You told me you lived alone.
01:17:21Edmund, I didn't
01:17:23say anything because I didn't want to make things weird.
01:17:25I didn't think you'd like me being your
01:17:27secretary's best friend.
01:17:29Besides, we were
01:17:31close, but we barely know each other now.
01:17:33This woman knows nothing about me.
01:17:35Nothing?
01:17:39Chloe, I'm done being manipulated by you.
01:17:41I don't care that you have a baby.
01:17:43Edmund, it was me that night.
01:17:45Not her.
01:17:47It was you the whole time.
01:17:49Okay,
01:17:51maybe it was her the first night,
01:17:53but it's been me ever since.
01:17:55We have a connection.
01:17:57Silence!
01:17:59Chloe,
01:18:01why don't you just leave?
01:18:03I don't want to see you ever again.
01:18:05What about our child?
01:18:07There is no
01:18:09child.
01:18:11We never slept together.
01:18:13Now.
01:18:19Wait!
01:18:21There's something I need back.
01:18:27I don't want you having anybody.
01:18:33You win.
01:18:39I'm going to announce my retirement
01:18:41so that I can spend
01:18:43more time with your mom, Eva.
01:18:45Eva,
01:18:47will you take over JPG?
01:18:49What do you say?
01:18:53If you
01:18:55ever mistreat my granddaughter again,
01:18:57I'll ruin you.
01:18:59You have my word.
01:19:01I won't let her down ever again.
01:19:09Part of me knew it was you.
01:19:11Really?
01:19:13How?
01:19:15Just a feeling.
01:19:17What are you feeling right now?
01:19:21I'm feeling
01:19:23like we're in the middle of a meeting
01:19:25and everyone's watching.
01:19:27What?
01:19:31My camera.
01:19:33I see it.
01:19:43Excuse me, sir.
01:19:45Madam.
01:19:47A special delivery.
01:19:49Just a moment.
01:19:59Oh my god!
01:20:01It's a handwritten letter from
01:20:03my ex-husband.
01:20:05What?
01:20:07It's a letter from my ex-husband.
01:20:09What?
01:20:11Oh my god!
01:20:13It's a handwritten letter from the king of England.
01:20:15He's attending our wedding?
01:20:17Sorry, I didn't say anything.
01:20:19I sent him an invitation.
01:20:21Technically, he's family.
01:20:23This is incredible.
01:20:25I mean,
01:20:27I don't know what the damn look of it is.
01:20:31I know I'm with you,
01:20:33but first things first,
01:20:35you're it.
01:20:41So,
01:20:43of all the hotels,
01:20:45this is the high notes we can pick.
01:20:47Exactly.
01:20:49I like it.
