00:00:00Ho, ho, ho! I have a gift for you.
00:00:03Jessica.
00:00:10Cheers. May it be full of surprises.
00:00:13Ho, ho, ho! I have a gift for you.
00:00:16Jessica, you have inherited this mansion,
00:00:19along with your father's business, empire, and assets worth over a billion dollars.
00:00:24I just need a signature from you.
00:00:25Oh, and a hundred and five million dollars in cash.
00:00:30Ho, ho, ho!
00:00:33We're rich!
00:00:34Let me hold on to you.
00:00:35For you, baby.
00:00:36Yeah.
00:00:37You know, my whole life, I grew up in foster care.
00:00:42Moving from place to place, and now I finally have a place that I can call home.
00:00:49It was real great to win the jackpot.
00:00:51Now my only wish is to reunite with my mother.
00:00:55You bastard child!
00:00:57You will never reunite with your mother.
00:00:59We made sure that that whore is gone forever.
00:01:02My mother is gone because of you?
00:01:04Well, we had a little help from James Thornton,
00:01:07the most powerful man in the Thornton family.
00:01:11Time for you to go back to your poor little country, sis.
00:01:15Yes, ma'am. USCIS.
00:01:17Your visa expired years ago. You're being deported.
00:01:20What? No, there must be some mistake here.
00:01:22Adrian, didn't you help me file my immigration paperwork?
00:01:26Whoops. I guess I screwed up.
00:01:29What?
00:01:32Hey, baby.
00:01:34Adrian, are you cheating on me? With her?
00:01:37Choose the right side, babe. You'll never win against them.
00:01:40That's true.
00:01:41Um, according to the terms of the will,
00:01:44non-citizens are not eligible to inherit the estate.
00:01:48Everything will pass through your next of kin, Lisa and Kristen Miller.
00:01:53You thought you could get rich overnight?
00:01:56Keep dreaming.
00:01:57Seriously?
00:01:58Bon voyage, have sis.
00:02:08The boss is urgent.
00:02:09They're about to deport a woman named Jessica Miller.
00:02:13Jessica Miller?
00:02:15It's her.
00:02:24Oh, thank God you're alive.
00:02:26She's so beautiful and kind. The girl I've always dreamed of.
00:02:30She saved my life once. I owe her.
00:02:36Wait, wait, wait.
00:02:38Jessica?
00:02:40Do I know you?
00:02:41She doesn't remember me.
00:02:47I'm Daniel. You're a lawyer.
00:02:49Just pretend we know each other. If I can get you out of here.
00:02:52I've spoken to the judge and Miss Miller should be released immediately.
00:02:57We can't deport her.
00:02:59She is about to marry a US citizen.
00:03:03Who's the lucky guy?
00:03:04I am.
00:03:06I'm marrying her.
00:03:12A fake marriage won't save her.
00:03:14Our marriage is real.
00:03:15Yeah, 100% real.
00:03:18Prove it then.
00:03:23Kiss.
00:03:26That's it? You call that a kiss?
00:03:40Need more proof, officer?
00:03:42Look, this guy is a lawyer to some of the most important families in town.
00:03:47And if you don't let her go, I'm going to make sure you lose your damn job.
00:03:50Fine, you can have her.
00:03:53Thank you, officer.
00:03:58Guys, I think we're good.
00:04:01It's not over.
00:04:05We'll be checking your marital status and conducting interviews.
00:04:08And there are a few very specific requirements you should know.
00:04:12Make sure you two are staying in the same house and sleeping in the same bed.
00:04:16Or it's game over.
00:04:17Game over.
00:04:20Well...
00:04:23Thank you...
00:04:25for the rescue.
00:04:27Oh, it's no problem.
00:04:29But, um...
00:04:31Daniel...
00:04:33Would you...
00:04:35Would you marry me?
00:04:37Oh, Jessica.
00:04:38I've waited for this moment for five years.
00:04:40I mean, it would only be a contract marriage.
00:04:43But once I get my green card,
00:04:45I'll inherit my father's business empire and...
00:04:48I'll share half of it with you.
00:04:51Even your misunderstanding looks so cute.
00:04:53I only want you, Jessica.
00:04:55But, before I get my green card,
00:04:58you're going to have to help me deal with my stepsister and her mom.
00:05:02They're trying to get rid of me.
00:05:04And they've already stolen my fortune.
00:05:06And they made my mother disappear.
00:05:11Deal.
00:05:12What?
00:05:14What?
00:05:16That's it?
00:05:19This lily stands for loyalties and new beginnings.
00:05:23Something that I want with you.
00:05:25Now, I know it's rushed.
00:05:28But I promise you...
00:05:30I will buy you a proper ring soon.
00:05:32I love you.
00:05:41From now on, let's make every Christmas our own.
00:05:44Fill it with memories.
00:05:58You can't do this!
00:06:00Jess, it's okay.
00:06:01Just wait here.
00:06:02I'll handle it.
00:06:08What?
00:06:10Why are you helping that girl?
00:06:11Kristen Miller is our ally.
00:06:13And she wants her the hell out of this picture.
00:06:16It's too late, Dad.
00:06:17We already got married.
00:06:18Are you insane?
00:06:20Did you forget you're supposed to marry Ashley?
00:06:25Daniel Thornton.
00:06:28My mother is gone because of you?
00:06:30Well, we had a little help from James Thornton.
00:06:33The most powerful man in the Thornton family.
00:06:37Wait.
00:06:38I recognize that face.
00:06:40From the newspaper, that was James Thornton.
00:06:43From the Thornton family.
00:06:45The family responsible for my mother's disappearance.
00:06:52Stop telling me what I can and cannot do.
00:06:54She saved my life.
00:06:55I owe it to her.
00:06:56Roll the hell up, Daniel.
00:06:58You need to remember your position as the heir to our family.
00:07:01And you need to divorce that girl.
00:07:03Now.
00:07:04I'm doing all this to clean your mess up.
00:07:07Just leave us alone.
00:07:16Sorry about that.
00:07:17Is your name Daniel Thornton?
00:07:22Yeah.
00:07:24The Thornton family are responsible for the disappearance of my mother.
00:07:29I have been searching for her my entire life.
00:07:33Jess.
00:07:34Yeah.
00:07:35I can explain.
00:07:36I'm not marrying Thornton.
00:07:37Wait, wait, wait.
00:07:38Jess, Jess.
00:07:39I'm not who you think I am.
00:07:41I have nothing to do with that family.
00:07:42Oh, really?
00:07:43Because your name is right here on the marriage certificate.
00:07:47I share the last name as Thornton.
00:07:49But I am not one of them.
00:07:51Thornton is a common name.
00:07:52Just an ordinary guy.
00:07:53Really?
00:07:54Well, I don't believe you.
00:07:55I saw you talking to James Thornton.
00:07:58Is he your father?
00:08:02Is he your father?
00:08:03No, he's not my father.
00:08:04He was threatening to drive you out of the country.
00:08:06And I was not going to have anything to do with it.
00:08:08Jess.
00:08:09I'm on your side.
00:08:11You're not one of them.
00:08:14I'm sorry.
00:08:17It's okay.
00:08:18Don't worry about it.
00:08:23Well, you have a nice apartment.
00:08:26Welcome.
00:08:29Is that your Labrador?
00:08:30It looks exactly like mine.
00:08:32I got mine as a Christmas present when I was nine.
00:08:34No way.
00:08:35I got mine as a Christmas present when I was nine.
00:08:37That's crazy.
00:08:43Jess, we're going to have to sleep in the same room together just in case immigration ambush us.
00:08:46Yeah, but are you sure you're okay sleeping on the carpet?
00:08:50I mean, you've done so much for me already and I just...
00:08:53Jess, please.
00:08:54I insist.
00:08:55We made a deal, remember?
00:08:57I also want to thank you for giving me the chance to get rich.
00:09:03It's okay, Daniel.
00:09:20Jess.
00:09:33Jess.
00:09:36Is she spying on us?
00:09:39No.
00:09:40No.
00:09:41No, no, no.
00:09:42I was just passing by and just...
00:09:45Do you need anything?
00:09:47I was joking.
00:09:48Yeah, could you pass me the towel?
00:09:51It's just hanging up next to the door.
00:09:54Yeah, sure, sure.
00:09:59Thanks.
00:10:09Oh my God.
00:10:10What?
00:10:11I just got fired.
00:10:12What?
00:10:15Wait, Jess, let me go with you.
00:10:18What?
00:10:20Yeah.
00:10:32Sam, please, don't fire me.
00:10:34I'm sorry, Jess, but your immigration issue put us in a tough spot.
00:10:40I worked for this company for years.
00:10:43I'm sorry, Jess.
00:10:44There's nothing I can do.
00:10:48I'm sorry.
00:10:54Look who's here.
00:10:55Someone who just got fired.
00:10:58This suits you.
00:11:03It was you.
00:11:05I should have known you were behind this.
00:11:07I'm not going to let you stay here and ruin things.
00:11:09I'm going to take away everything you have.
00:11:11Sister.
00:11:13Uh, you just made a big mistake, sir.
00:11:18Who are you?
00:11:19My name is Daniel Thornton, son of James Thornton, the chairman of Thornton Enterprise.
00:11:26Oh, uh, Mr. Thornton, uh, welcome.
00:11:31What brings you here?
00:11:34Well, I have some good news for you.
00:11:37Jessica Miller, she's just closed a billion dollar deal.
00:11:42Take a look.
00:11:54Oh, my God.
00:11:59It's real.
00:12:01Absolutely.
00:12:02With her hard work and dedication, she's made this possible.
00:12:06It's a real shame you're going to lose such a valuable employee.
00:12:10Oh, uh, Mr. Thornton, um, I have made a huge mistake.
00:12:16Uh, Jessica will stay.
00:12:20Good.
00:12:22And, uh, make sure nobody knows we had this conversation.
00:12:30Jessica!
00:12:31You should have told me!
00:12:36What are you talking about, Sam?
00:12:38Jessica!
00:12:39You secured a huge deal for the company!
00:12:43Did you not just fire her?
00:12:45I changed my mind.
00:12:48Jessica's staying.
00:12:49Actually, she's being promoted to sales manager.
00:12:54Can't afford to lose someone as valuable as like her.
00:12:57Great.
00:12:59Thanks, Sam.
00:13:01This is not over.
00:13:07I can't believe it.
00:13:08Jessica kept her job and she gets promoted.
00:13:11Don't worry, Lisa.
00:13:13I just spoke with James Thornton and he had the lawyer change the will in our favor.
00:13:18Jessica will get nothing.
00:13:20Oh, my God.
00:13:22That's fantastic.
00:13:35No way.
00:13:42Jessica, how's work?
00:13:44Did you get your job back?
00:13:46Daniel, I need a lawyer.
00:13:55Well, look who decided to show up.
00:13:58Too bad for you, Jess.
00:14:00Turns out daddy's will left you nothing.
00:14:03I knew all along Robert wouldn't leave anything for this little pathetic bastard child.
00:14:10You are out of luck.
00:14:12Well, that's a lie.
00:14:13You showed me the will.
00:14:15And I signed the documents.
00:14:18I'm sorry, Jessica.
00:14:20I've just discovered a revised will that supports Kristen and Lisa's claims.
00:14:27Mr. Thornton.
00:14:28Who is this?
00:14:30He's my lawyer.
00:14:31And a damn good one.
00:14:32Oh.
00:14:34You know, Jess, I didn't realize you had enough money to pay for a fancy little lawyer.
00:14:38You sleep with him?
00:14:41Patrick, can I have a word with you outside?
00:14:44Talk all you want.
00:14:46It won't change anything.
00:14:51All right, Patrick.
00:14:53I'm going to keep this short and sweet.
00:14:55I know you changed the will to favor Kristen and Lisa.
00:14:57I know what you're talking about, Mr. Thornton.
00:15:00The revised will's solid.
00:15:02Ted found an email exchange with my father.
00:15:05Here, take a look.
00:15:07You've been caught, Patrick.
00:15:09Honor of the will, I'll report you to the Bar Association.
00:15:12You'll lose your license and any chance of practicing law or gain.
00:15:15That goes against your father's wishes.
00:15:17You don't understand the position you put me in.
00:15:19I'll deal with my father.
00:15:20Don't you worry about that.
00:15:22You just worry about doing the right thing.
00:15:29Um, this revised will's a fake.
00:15:32The original will's stamped.
00:15:33What the hell are you doing?
00:15:35He's doing the right thing.
00:15:39Jessica, you've gotten your inheritance back.
00:15:42Congratulations.
00:15:44Oh my God.
00:15:47Patrick, do what you are supposed to do
00:15:50or James will make sure you face the consequences.
00:15:55Don't listen to her, Patrick.
00:15:57I'll deal with James Thornton.
00:15:59Who the hell do you think you are?
00:16:01James Thornton is one of the most powerful men in this town.
00:16:05I sure can.
00:16:07Isn't that right, Patrick?
00:16:09Yes.
00:16:10The original will's a fake.
00:16:12Yes.
00:16:13The original will stands.
00:16:15No, you are crazy.
00:16:16No, I'm not.
00:16:18According to the original will, Jessica stands to inherit this mansion.
00:16:22Kristen, you're out.
00:16:24I think you two should leave.
00:16:26You homewrecker.
00:16:28Just like your mother.
00:16:30I will not allow violence.
00:16:33I didn't come here to argue over a house and assets.
00:16:38I came here to be recognized as an actual member of this family.
00:16:42Yeah, well it's easy for you to say you're getting everything.
00:16:44You don't know how lucky you are, Lisa.
00:16:46You grew up with a father who loved you.
00:16:49I had none.
00:16:50And you took my mother away from me and I still don't know where she is.
00:16:56You two don't deserve this mansion.
00:16:58And I would rather give it away to charity
00:17:02than to see the two of you living in it.
00:17:09You two should pack your things up.
00:17:12You have one week to leave this house.
00:17:22What the hell were you thinking?
00:17:24Sabotaging my plan?
00:17:26I was just doing the right thing.
00:17:28The right thing?
00:17:29Going against me?
00:17:31Kristen Miller has got no power anymore.
00:17:33Her game is over.
00:17:35I'm sure you didn't come all this way just to argue with me.
00:17:39So what do you want?
00:17:41I just want Jessica to get her mom back.
00:17:45Interesting.
00:17:49What's in it for me?
00:17:51Once Jessica gets her mom back, I'll do whatever you want.
00:17:55Whatever I want?
00:17:57Like what exactly?
00:17:59I'll marry Ashley.
00:18:02You'll marry Ashley?
00:18:05Yeah.
00:18:06You're willing to do that?
00:18:08Yeah, I am.
00:18:10But only if she's reunited with her mother.
00:18:14Okay, deal.
00:18:17I'll make the arrangements.
00:18:20So you're really in love with this one, huh?
00:18:22Yeah, I am.
00:18:25Okay, good.
00:18:27I sure hope she's worth it.
00:18:29She is.
00:18:32Oh, what's wrong?
00:18:35We have a guest.
00:18:39Mr. Thornton.
00:18:41Good to see you again.
00:18:43Interview time.
00:18:45Great.
00:18:47When did you two meet?
00:18:49Uh, we met at a friend's party two years ago.
00:18:53What do you say, Jessica?
00:18:55Huh?
00:18:57Oh, yeah, yeah.
00:18:59Interesting.
00:19:01And when did you decide to get married?
00:19:04Eight months ago.
00:19:06Six months or eight months, which one is it?
00:19:08Yeah, eight months ago.
00:19:10Sorry, I just...
00:19:11Sorry, I'm always getting mixed up.
00:19:13Sure.
00:19:15Easy mistake to make.
00:19:17And what's your anniversary date?
00:19:19March 15th.
00:19:21March 15th?
00:19:23All right.
00:19:28Uh, that's it?
00:19:30Yes, Mr. Thornton.
00:19:32I have everything I need.
00:19:34I'll report back to the judges.
00:19:38Oh, wait.
00:19:40This.
00:19:43How did we do in there?
00:19:47It was pretty bad.
00:19:50Look.
00:19:53I'm the son of James Thornton.
00:19:54I know who you are.
00:19:57Okay.
00:20:00You want to bribe me?
00:20:03Yes.
00:20:04I can't be bribed.
00:20:06Here's one million dollars.
00:20:12Two million dollars.
00:20:14Right.
00:20:18Three million dollars.
00:20:21It's tempting, but like I said, you can't bribe me.
00:20:24Please.
00:20:25Can you just give us one more week to prepare?
00:20:28I really want to be with this woman.
00:20:30She means the world to me.
00:20:31She saved my life.
00:20:33I'm not going to take your money, but I'll give you one week.
00:20:36Make it count.
00:20:39Next time, I want to see some genuine affection between you two.
00:20:42If anything seems a bit off, your game's up.
00:20:45Of course.
00:20:46And one more thing.
00:20:48I can tell you two haven't had sex yet.
00:20:52I'm that good, Mr. Daniel.
00:20:54Don't try and fool me.
00:21:01She gave us another chance.
00:21:02Oh, my God.
00:21:03We have one week to get our story straight.
00:21:06Thank you, Daniel.
00:21:08You've been very, very helpful today.
00:21:23Now, I wanted to make our first Christmas special,
00:21:27so I did a little digging and I found this.
00:21:31This tree is amazing.
00:21:37What happened?

01:11:05it was six months ago and the other one said it was eight months ago we lied officer but it was
01:11:12five years ago at a pool party and we had our first kiss when we first met
01:11:20it sounds pretty far-fetched but for some reason i want to give you two the benefit of the doubt
01:11:28daniel risked his life to save me and my mother there's nothing more that he needs to do to prove
01:11:34his love for me one last question how frequently have you two spent the night together in the past

01:12:42adrian's told me all about you i don't know what adrian told you but it's not what you think
01:12:50daniel was supposed to marry me and then you just waltzed in and ruined everything ashley

01:14:02glad to see you've replaced me with someone with a little fire daniel
01:14:10i always knew daniel didn't love me but he was too afraid of his father to ever go after his
01:14:17true love but i guess i'm happy that he's found someone who wants the same things as him
01:14:27so that's it that's it
01:14:36enjoy your happy ending darling
