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

00:24:21Oh,
00:24:22oh,
00:24:23oh,
00:24:24oh.
00:24:51That watch looks familiar.
00:24:55You know,
00:24:56I've seen this before
00:24:57in the,
00:24:58in the magazine.
00:25:00That looks like one of those,
00:25:01um,
00:25:04Fontaine Family
00:25:06watches.
00:25:07Is it real?
00:25:08Uh,
00:25:10no.
00:25:11It's fake.
00:25:16You wear a fake watch?
00:25:18Yeah.
00:25:19You wear a fake watch?
00:25:20Yeah.
00:25:31I'm so happy, Jess.
00:25:37There's
00:25:38also something
00:25:39I need to tell you
00:25:40about your mom.
00:25:45Yes.
00:25:49What?
00:25:56Oh my God.
00:25:58Did I just sleep with Daniel
00:25:59last night?
00:26:01I told him it would only be
00:26:02a contract marriage.
00:26:12Morning.
00:26:13This is the most beautiful
00:26:14morning that I've ever had.
00:26:16Daniel,
00:26:17I'm
00:26:18I'm so
00:26:19sorry about
00:26:20last night.
00:26:21It was,
00:26:22it wasn't supposed to happen
00:26:23and I promise
00:26:24it'll never happen again.
00:26:28She didn't mean it.
00:26:30Oh, Jessica,
00:26:31last night was amazing.
00:26:33Uh,
00:26:36yeah, Jess,
00:26:37uh,
00:26:38I get it.
00:26:39It was, uh,
00:26:42it was a one-time thing.
00:26:44Yeah, just like,
00:26:45just a one-time
00:26:46thing.
00:26:47Yeah.
00:26:50Anyway,
00:26:51it's, uh,
00:26:52your big day today.
00:26:54You're the new CEO
00:26:55of the Miller Empire.
00:26:58Thank you
00:26:59for the reminder.
00:27:03Now that you mention it,
00:27:04I'm really scared.
00:27:05Oh,
00:27:06no, Jess,
00:27:07I
00:27:08didn't mean it like that.
00:27:10What I was meant to say is
00:27:14I'm gonna help you.
00:27:17Okay.
00:27:20I don't know what to do,
00:27:21Mother.
00:27:22That bitch is kicking us out.
00:27:23We still have a chance.
00:27:25That bastard child
00:27:26needs a unanimous vote
00:27:27from the board
00:27:28to be chosen
00:27:29as the next CEO.
00:27:31So we just need
00:27:32a board member
00:27:33to back us up.
00:27:34I will call Richard.
00:27:35Everyone respects
00:27:36Richard's vote
00:27:37and I will make sure
00:27:38he doesn't vote for her.
00:27:40And I'll dig up
00:27:41all the dirt
00:27:42I can find on her.
00:27:43You go girl.
00:27:47Okay.
00:27:54These clothes
00:27:55are
00:27:56beautiful
00:27:58but
00:28:00very expensive.
00:28:02Like this one
00:28:03that is
00:28:05nine thousand dollars.
00:28:06Jess,
00:28:07don't worry about it.
00:28:09It's on me.
00:28:10Look at it as
00:28:12my first gift
00:28:13to my wife.
00:28:14You know what?
00:28:15Daniel,
00:28:16look at this.
00:28:17Look, Jess,
00:28:18you're gonna be a CEO
00:28:19which means
00:28:20you've gotta look the part.
00:28:21Trust me.
00:28:22It's an investment.
00:28:25Mr. Thornton,
00:28:26welcome back.
00:28:27How can I assist you today?
00:28:29You come here a lot?
00:28:30Uh, no.
00:28:31Well, of course
00:28:32Mr. Thornton owns this store.
00:28:34Uh,
00:28:35Jess,
00:28:36why don't you try
00:28:37this one on?
00:28:38You'll look great in it.
00:28:43Wow,
00:28:44Jess,
00:28:45amazing.
00:28:47You think so?
00:28:48Yeah.
00:28:50This is exactly
00:28:51what a CEO would wear.
00:28:52Absolutely.
00:28:53Great choice.
00:28:55We'll take this one.
00:28:57Something in your mind?
00:29:00Well, it's probably nothing
00:29:01but it's just
00:29:02that clerk
00:29:03seemed very
00:29:04fond of you.
00:29:05Oh, uh,
00:29:07being friendly
00:29:08is a part of my job.
00:29:10Okay.
00:29:15So that's
00:29:16how you got your lawyer,
00:29:17huh?
00:29:19Now that you mention it,
00:29:21maybe she was a little friendly.
00:29:23But,
00:29:24we got a discount.
00:29:26Show off.
00:29:35What a slut.
00:29:40Trust me, Jess,
00:29:41you can do this.
00:29:42It's not easy.
00:29:44Yeah,
00:29:45but what if they don't accept me?
00:29:46They will.
00:29:47Trust me.
00:29:48Just speak from the heart
00:29:49and show your true self.
00:29:52Look at you two
00:29:53little lovebirds.
00:29:56Pathetic.
00:30:00Ted,
00:30:01can we talk about this later?
00:30:02Okay.
00:30:05You go in.
00:30:06I'll meet you in there soon,
00:30:07okay?
00:30:08Good luck in there, sis.
00:30:11You're gonna need it.
00:30:13You don't have any votes.
00:30:18I know my background
00:30:19doesn't seem very typical
00:30:20of a CEO,
00:30:22but I built myself
00:30:23from the bottom up here.
00:30:25Miller Corporation
00:30:26is a leader
00:30:28in tech
00:30:30and services.
00:30:31Retail,
00:30:32retail,
00:30:33retail,
00:30:34retail,
00:30:35retail,
00:30:36retail,
00:30:37rural offices
00:30:38reaching industries
00:30:39from health care
00:30:40to energy.
00:30:41We have over
00:30:4210,000
00:30:43employees
00:30:44World Wide
00:30:46who have worked hard
00:30:47to build this company
00:30:48from the ground up
00:30:49and I was one of them.
00:30:50I know them.
00:30:52And I believe
00:30:53that I can help
00:30:54lead this company
00:30:55to become
00:30:56everyone's company.
00:30:58Let's proceed to the vote.
00:31:00All in favor?
00:31:01Robert lost his damn mind. He picked his secret child to be the CEO, only because of his guilty
00:31:11conscience. Richard, if I may... I'm not done talking. You can't lead us. And you're not
00:31:18getting my vote. Richard, if I may speak... Go ahead. But I won't change my mind. Sorry
00:31:29for interrupting everyone, but I have something important to share with you all today. Who
00:31:33the hell are you? Well, Richard, I'm the person who's going to expose you. What did you just
00:31:39say? How do I say this? Uh, you're a sex pervert. What? You see, everyone, this file contains
00:31:52multiple sexual harassment lawsuits against Richard over the past 30 years. Some of them
00:32:00also have ongoing lawsuits. They're all just allegations, and they've all been settled.
00:32:04I'm innocent. We've also got in contact with some of the victims, and they're willing to
00:32:08come forward and testify. Actually, I have not finished yet. You're also stealing money
00:32:13from the company, and we have financial records to prove it. The evidence is clear. He's guilty.
00:32:26Okay, then, let's all vote for Richard Donnell's immediate suspension. All in favor? We have
00:32:3815 votes. The board has decided Richard Donnell is officially removed from his position. Security,
00:32:46escort him out immediately. I know my way. And all in favor of appointing Jessica Miller
00:32:58as the new CEO. I'm sorry I was late. I had to make sure I had enough evidence to nail
00:33:17him. No, don't be sorry, Daniel. That was so worth the wait. Good. This is not over.
00:33:26You'll see. How's packing going, Lisa? You're about to be evicted soon.
00:33:36She won again, that bitch. I know. It's so unfair. Do we have a guest? Lisa, honey,
00:33:43I've been trying to reach you. Why haven't you returned my calls? I've been busy. Busy
00:33:50dealing with Jessica. How did you know? Oh, I know. And I think I know how to help you take
00:33:55it down again. No use to me anymore, Adrian. I only needed you to help me get rid of Jessica.
00:34:03To the new CEO of the Miller Empire. Well, I couldn't have done it without you, Daniel.
00:34:11I also have another Christmas surprise for you. Who are you calling?
00:34:16Jessica. Is it? Yes, Jess. It's your mother, Clara. Oh, my God, Mom. Oh, Jessica, you're a
00:34:27grown woman now. The Miller family threatened to kill you, Jess. I had no option but to vanish.
00:34:35Oh, Mom, it's okay. It's okay. You didn't do anything wrong. I'll
00:34:40bring you back into the country. I promise. Daniel, how did you find her?
00:34:46I have a few powerful friends. They did me a favor, but I'll leave you two alone.
00:35:01Two more, please. Daniel. Adrian. Long time, no see, buddy. Oh, my God. How long has it been?
00:35:13Ten years. Ten years. Oh, my God. The last time I must have seen you was law school.
00:35:21Yep. Go Reds. Go Reds. What are you doing here? Just in town to run some errands.
00:35:30Just thought I'd come in for a quick bite. Nice, man. Nice. I saw your date earlier.
00:35:35She looks pretty. Yeah, my wife. Your wife? Yeah, Jess. You're married? Yes. Yeah,
00:35:43you have to introduce me to her. Come on, let's go say hi. Come and say hello. It's good to see
00:35:47you, buddy. Good to see you, too, man. Jess, I wanted you to meet an old friend of mine.
00:35:52Adrian, this is Jess. Jess, this is Adrian. We went to law school together.
00:35:57I don't want to see him. I don't want to see him.
00:36:10You two know each other? Yes, Daniel. I was her first boyfriend.
00:36:18Come on, Jess, don't you miss me? I don't want to see you
00:36:23anymore. You know you still love me, Jess. No, I don't.
00:36:31I think you should leave, Adrian. Okay, Daniel, relax. Now.
00:36:41I'm leaving.
00:36:46She knows she's lying.
00:36:47I should have known. What else?
00:37:12That son of a bitch. We need to win this war.
00:37:16Do whatever it takes. Daniel. Sorry, did I wake you? No, can you join me in bed, please?
00:37:34Are you sure?
00:37:43I just, I wanted to apologize for earlier. The restaurant.
00:37:52I got a bit carried away. Jess, you don't need to apologize.
00:37:57Adrian's an asshole. He's just trying to do it to get under your skin.
00:38:00I did care for Adrian once, but he just destroyed everything we had. I want you to know
00:38:10that I'm here because of you, and you're the only one who I love. No one else.
00:38:30I love you too, Jess, and I'm not going anywhere.
00:38:49Good morning, husband. Morning, wife.
00:38:54Are you ready for your big day as the new CEO? If only you were with me.
00:39:01So
00:39:18you're going to do great today.
00:39:20Jess, here's your coffee. Thank you.
00:39:33What's wrong? Oh, it's just, it's this job. It's all so new to me. Okay, calm down. Remember,
00:39:41you're the CEO, which means you're the boss. Yeah, but I don't know how to be a boss.
00:39:48Hey, Jess. Look at you sitting in the big chair now. Oh, I am so happy you're here.
00:39:59You must be Daniel. Jessica's been talking about you for days. I'm flattered. I really wish you
00:40:07could be here with me, G. It's exhausting. Oh, at least you have a job, Jess. I've been looking
00:40:13for work for the past two months. Jess, do you like Gianna being here?
00:40:23Of course. We've been besties since forever. Yeah, what kind of question is that? Well,
00:40:30why don't you use your CEO power and hire Gianna? Oh, I don't, I know what you mean.
00:40:38I don't understand. How would you like to come work for me? Of course. Okay, then. My first order
00:40:52as a CEO, Gianna, you are hired as my personal assistant. Oh my God, Jess. Thank you so much.
00:41:02See? Being a boss is easy. You can do whatever you want.
00:41:14Oh my God. What's wrong? The company's stock prices are dropping like crazy. What is happening?
00:41:23This isn't normal. The stock's getting dumped. Well, well, well. Looks like things aren't going
00:41:30so well. What did you do, Lisa? I asked Richard and some of the other investors to sell their
00:41:36stocks. The board members are not going to be happy about the stock prices, Jessica.
00:41:42What do you want? Resign as CEO or I will destroy this company. No way. Okay.
00:41:52Then I will destroy this company. Jessica, the board members are asking to meet with you.
00:41:57They're angry. What are you going to do, Jess? Okay, I'll meet with the board. Wait, Jess.
00:42:10Don't go. Take a seat. What is it? Lisa, are you sure the stock prices are going down?
00:42:18Because to me, they seem to be going up and up. That's impossible. You would need at least a
00:42:23billion dollars. I guess anything's possible these days. God damn it. God, she's annoying.
00:42:37No, you must be my lucky star. Daniel.
00:42:47Gianna. I know who you are, Daniel. You're the son of James Thornton. How'd you find out?
00:42:56My identity's meant to be a secret. I used to work for your father. Please don't tell Jess.
00:43:01I'll pay you. How much do you want? I don't want your money. I care for my friend.
00:43:07Actually, your father fired me because I tried to help Jessica. I'm sorry, Gianna. It's okay.
00:43:14I just want to know why. She hates my family. I have to lie to her. She hates your family, but
00:43:22she loves you. I can see that. You really think so? Yes. I love her, too.
00:43:31She's the best thing that's ever happened to me. That's good to hear. Please protect her.
00:43:44Daniel, it's my mom. Adrienne threatened her.
00:43:57Adrienne threatened my mom on the phone. He said he was going to block her from entering the
00:44:02country. What should we do? Jess, I don't want you to worry about it. I'm going to make sure
00:44:09your mom gets here safely. Ted, I need you to make sure Jessica's mom gets here safely.
00:44:30Book her on the first flight out tomorrow. Got it, boss. She'll be here in town the day after
00:44:35tomorrow. Good. Jess has been taken care of. Your mom's going to be here the day after tomorrow.
00:44:48Thank you, Daniel. But I'm still scared. I just need a day off.
00:44:58I love the sound of that. What did you have in mind? I was thinking...
00:45:06I want to buy a house.
00:45:16So, do you like this place? It's amazing. But, Jess, I appreciate the gesture,
00:45:26but you don't need to buy me a house. No, no. I insist. You've done so much
00:45:34to help me. Besides, we can live together here. Mr. Thornton. Hi. Your father is here.
00:45:42Are you meeting him here?
00:45:43Well, I've never met your parents, so I'm pretty excited to meet an in-law.
00:45:52Oh, is that him? Come on, let's go say hi. Jess, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait,
00:46:00come on, let's go say hi. Jess, wait, uh, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait,
00:46:05wait, um, I might not have told my dad about you and our marriage. Why?
00:46:15Because he has a heart condition. I think it's best you stay here. Okay, I'll just stay here,
00:46:25then. Good. Dad, come on. Daniel, what the hell? Jessica's here. She can't see her face.
00:46:38Don't take them off. I want to talk to you about Ashley, Daniel.
00:46:47Why hasn't Daniel told his father about me and our wedding? Ashley, really? Not today.
00:46:55And what is this shirt you're wearing? Your mother insisted I wear it in this charity event,
00:47:02the morning ride. She said it makes me look more grounded. I told you.
00:47:11And don't go changing our subject. I want to discuss our agreement.
00:47:14I give you Clara, and you marry Ashley.
00:47:18Why does he look so nervous? Am I not good enough?
00:47:30Do we have to talk about this right now? I held up my end of the bargain, Daniel.
00:47:35I want this deal done now. Actually, Clara isn't safe yet. Lisa Miller might try and be
00:47:42sabotaging everything. This is why you don't mess with the Miller family. You should have left it
00:47:47alone. All I'm asking is just a few more days. Ashley is coming to town in a few days. What?
00:47:56Jess. Jess.
00:47:57Dad, this is Jess. Jess, this is Dad. You can call him Jimmy.
00:48:12Jimmy? I'm Jimmy, sweetie.
00:48:18It's lovely to meet you, Jimmy. And can I just say, that is a lovely Hawaiian shirt.
00:48:24It really, really suits you. Well, thank you, Jessica. It's one I'm fond of.
00:48:32So, who is Ashley? I heard you guys talking about her earlier.
00:48:37Oh, she's just an old family friend. They grew up and went to law school together.
00:48:45Oh. And she had Daniel's first kiss.
00:48:49Oh. Her wedding is approaching soon,
00:48:53and I'd like Daniel to attend. Dad, I'm reminiscing about the good old days.
00:48:59No, it's fine. Honestly, it's lovely to hear about Daniel's childhood and more about his life.
00:49:05You bastard child.
00:49:07Well, well. What do we have here? You think you can afford this place?
00:49:18You're about to lose this battle and be out on the streets soon.
00:49:23Who's this clown?
00:49:27Looks like he belongs in a circus. How dare you, Kristen?
00:49:31How do you know my name? And don't you dare call me by my first name.
00:49:36That's enough. Don't talk to my father like that.
00:49:44He's your father. How does it feel to be a father of such a loser?
00:49:51Don't talk to my family like that. Your family. Your family suck, Jessica.
00:49:58Especially your mother. The home-wrecking tramp. A whore.
00:50:07How dare you slap me.
00:50:10That is enough, Kristen. You're not going to lay a hand on my wife.
00:50:17You're not going to lay a hand on my wife.
00:50:20You're going to beat me.
00:50:22You're going to beat me.
00:50:24How dare you slap my mother like that.
00:50:29How dare you?
00:50:30How dare you?
00:50:31How dare you?
00:50:32How dare you?
00:50:33How dare you?
00:50:33You're not going to lay a hand on my wife.
00:50:38Ladies, you need to leave. Now.
00:50:40You can't throw us out. We're buyers.
00:50:42We're not going anywhere.
00:50:43The owner of this property has banned you from coming here.
00:50:46You need to leave now or I will call security.
00:50:51You will regret this.
00:50:55I've heard that a thousand times.
00:50:58Now leave.
00:51:09Thank you, Jessica.
00:51:11You stood up for me.
00:51:13Well, we're family, Jimmy.
00:51:15It's what I'm supposed to do.
00:51:20Well, I appreciate it.
00:51:23You're a nice girl.
00:51:25You found a good wife, son.
00:51:29Dad.
00:51:30About Ashley's wedding.
00:51:32I don't think I'm going to be able to make it.
00:51:34I'll look into it.
00:51:36I'll speak to her about it.
00:51:37Oh, no, no, no, no.
00:51:39Daniel can still attend.
00:51:40It's not a problem.
00:51:42Jess, I just want to focus on you and I.
00:51:44I'm not the jealous type.
00:51:47Plus, I don't want you to miss your first crush's wedding.
00:51:52Well, you decide, Daniel.
00:51:55Oh, there's a long party.
00:51:57You two want to come?
00:51:58It's in three hours.
00:52:01Yeah, that will go.
00:52:04Great.
00:52:06I'll see you there.
00:52:18Well, this place is extremely high class.
00:52:22Well, my dad has a few rich friends.
00:52:26And James Thornton is here.
00:52:30I know you don't want to see him.
00:52:32But Jess, my dad's here.
00:52:35He's going to join us later.
00:52:36Okay.
00:52:38The bidding's about to start.
00:52:44Oh, that bitch is here!
00:52:46I know.
00:52:47Don't worry, we can teach him a lesson.
00:52:49Yeah, how?
00:52:50Let's see if Daniel can handle...
00:52:52With money.
00:52:53Here with money?
00:52:54What money?
00:52:55I haven't gotten my inheritance back yet.
00:52:57Yeah, I know.
00:52:58Your mother spoke to Richard.
00:52:59He said he's willing to donate us some cash
00:53:01if we make Jessica look ugly.
00:53:03Oh.
00:53:06You're the best.
00:53:09I know.

00:53:51Where did they get that money from?
00:53:52I don't know,
00:53:53but they're definitely trying to humiliate you here.
00:53:55Really?

00:54:41There's a gentleman there.
00:54:50Where did you get that money from?
00:54:52Well,
00:54:53do you remember me telling you about I have a powerful friend?
00:54:57Yeah, the one who helped me find my mother.
00:55:01Jessica.
00:55:02James Thornton.
00:55:04In the flesh.
00:55:05Or Mrs. Thornton.
00:55:08I want to apologize to you.
00:55:10I am truly sorry for everything I did to you and your mother.
00:55:14But I'm trying my best to make amends.
00:55:17Well,
00:55:18I don't know what to say.
00:55:21Jess, I know it's a lot to handle.
00:55:23You've just got to trust me.
00:55:24Yeah, but why didn't you just tell me in the first place, Daniel?
00:55:28Jess!
00:55:30Jessica!
00:55:31Don't follow me!
00:55:33Oh.
00:55:34This could get interesting.
00:55:36Uh-huh.
00:55:47Look who's alone.
00:55:50No, just leave me alone.
00:55:52You're never going to win against James Thornton.
00:55:54He's my mother's best friend.
00:55:56You're going to lose everything.
00:55:58Poor baby.
00:55:59You're going to lose everything.
00:56:01Poor baby.
00:56:02Still played by the big boys.
00:56:04James Thornton and his son have been playing you all along.
00:56:08But what did you just say?
00:56:11James Thornton and his son?
00:56:13Wait, Jess, you didn't know?
00:56:14Daniel Thornton is his son.
00:56:19Oh my God.
00:56:20I didn't know that.
00:56:22Now that I do.
00:56:25That's enough!
00:56:27Oh, excuse me, Mr. Thornton.
00:56:30Crown Prince said the Thornton family.
00:56:41This man's been lying to you all along.
00:56:43Poor little girl's got no one to trust.
00:56:46Both of you, get out of here.
00:56:50Right.
00:56:57Jess, I've been trying to tell you.
00:56:59Am I a joke to you?
00:57:01No.
00:57:02What do you mean?
00:57:03You and your father.
00:57:05You've been playing me this whole time.
00:57:08No.
00:57:09I've been standing by your side all the time, Jess.
00:57:11I can't trust you.
00:57:14You lied to me.
00:57:16You're right.
00:57:17You're right.
00:57:21I have been hiding things from you.
00:57:26You know what I haven't told you yet?
00:57:29Another big secret.
00:57:32Are you sure you want to hear this?
00:57:39The other big secret is,
00:57:41the first time we met isn't what you think it is.
00:57:45It was five years ago.
00:57:47Five years ago?
00:57:48Yes.
00:57:50At a party.
00:57:52I was drunk and I fell in a pool.
00:57:57No.
00:58:03Oh, thank God you're alive.
00:58:09I was drowning and you saved my life.
00:58:12But you won't remember that.
00:58:15But I will forever be grateful for what you did for me that day.
00:58:19Is that them?
00:58:21That was you?
00:58:22Yes.
00:58:23My father forbid me from seeing you.
00:58:26But I didn't care.
00:58:28I confronted him.
00:58:30You can't tell me what to do, Dad.
00:58:32You can't stop me from seeing her.
00:58:33I'm doing what's best for you, Daniel.
00:58:35That girl and all her family are nothing but trouble.
00:58:40And then he decided to tell me about everything he did to you and your mom.
00:58:43And I felt so guilty.
00:58:45It's okay.
00:58:49I was ashamed to approach you.
00:58:51I just didn't know how to face you without making things worse.
00:58:54And I thought the best thing to do was just leave you alone.
00:58:58Now I know.
00:58:59And then I heard about you being deported and I just couldn't let that happen.
00:59:02Well...
00:59:05I saved you.
00:59:08You saved me.
00:59:11Because we just belong together.
00:59:17Ew.
00:59:18Corny.
00:59:21But just...
00:59:24No more secrets.
00:59:26Okay?
00:59:28I promise.
00:59:30No more secrets.
00:59:47You're up early.
00:59:49Yeah.
00:59:51I'm gonna go pick your mom up from the airport.
00:59:53Better sooner than later.
00:59:58Gianna just texted me.
01:00:00She said that I have my first weekly exec meeting this morning.
01:00:05I should postpone it.
01:00:06No.
01:00:07You should definitely go to that.
01:00:09You need to look good in front of your board.
01:00:10Really?
01:00:11Yeah.
01:00:12I'm gonna go pick your mom up from the airport and I'll bring her straight to the office.
01:00:15Thanks.
01:00:16You're the best.
01:00:21Well, that went better than I thought.
01:00:23Don't underestimate yourself, Jess.
01:00:25You did great.
01:00:31Heya, Jess.
01:00:32What are you doing here?
01:00:38What are you doing here?
01:00:39I just wanted to share with you some interesting facts about your dear husband, Daniel Thornton.
01:00:45Gianna, can you wait outside a moment?
01:00:51Okay, I'm telling you now.
01:00:53Whatever bad, made-up facts that you've come to tell me about Daniel, it's not gonna work.
01:00:59Because Daniel already told me everything.
01:01:02Everything?
01:01:03Are you so sure?
01:01:05Yeah.
01:01:06Him and his father came clean about everything.
01:01:08There is nothing more to hide.
01:01:10And did they also tell you Daniel was supposed to marry his childhood sweetheart?
01:01:13What?
01:01:14Ashley Wimbledon.
01:01:16Heiress to the famous Wimbledon family.
01:01:18Ring any bells?
01:01:20Ashley.
01:01:24Ashley.
01:01:26Who is Ashley?
01:01:28I heard you guys talking about her earlier.
01:01:30Oh, she's just an old childhood friend.
01:01:34They grew up and went to law school together.
01:01:37Oh.
01:01:38And she had Daniel's first kiss.
01:01:44He did mention Ashley.
01:01:49He did?
01:01:50Yeah, but he's not gonna marry her.
01:01:52I remember that conversation.
01:01:58Daniel's picking my mother up from the airport himself.
01:02:01I'll be seeing her soon.
01:02:04What are you laughing about?
01:02:10Daniel is bringing her back, babe.
01:02:13I'm not gonna see her.
01:02:16After years of separation with your mother,
01:02:20Daniel didn't let you go along with him to meet with her?
01:02:23And what kind of a husband does that?
01:02:25I had an early meeting this morning and Daniel didn't want me to worry.
01:02:29So easily manipulated, Jess.
01:02:33Just like old times.
01:02:35Yeah, well, I don't believe a word you say.
01:02:40Daniel isn't gonna bring her back.
01:02:42Care to find out together?
01:02:45Yeah.
01:02:52Are you sure everything is taken care of?
01:02:54Yes.
01:02:55You're free to live in this country.
01:02:57Clara, I also want to apologize for everything you went through years ago.
01:03:01I'm deeply sorry.
01:03:03Well, you did bring me back here.
01:03:05Right now, I just want to see my daughter.
01:03:07We'll go through.
01:03:09Not so fast, Danny boy.
01:03:15You're too late, Lisa.
01:03:17Clara's here to claim Robert's inheritance back.
01:03:19Oh, I don't think so.
01:03:21Agents, do your thing.
01:03:22Wait.
01:03:23What?
01:03:24This is a mistake.
01:03:25No.
01:03:26Clara's got past customs.
01:03:27She can stay.
01:03:28Sweetheart, you really think those little documents can stop this?
01:03:32I don't think so.
01:03:33Back off, Lisa.
01:03:34Watch it, pretty boy.
01:03:36Jess.
01:03:37Jess!
01:03:38Mom! Mom!
01:03:39What are you doing?
01:03:40Where are they taking my mother?
01:03:41Mom, I will bring her back.
01:03:42I promise.
01:03:43Just stay strong.
01:03:44Sis, it looks like you've been screwed by the Thorntons again.
01:03:47Adrian, you sabotaged this.
01:03:49You'll pay for this.
01:03:51See, babe?
01:03:52I told you he's not bringing her back.
01:03:54You said everything was taken care of.
01:03:56Jess, it's not me.
01:03:58It's them.
01:03:59You're lying, Daniel.
01:04:00Why don't you ask him about that thing we talked about?
01:04:02Jess.
01:04:05Jess.
01:04:06He said that you were going to marry Ashley.
01:04:08Okay, so it's true.
01:04:10Jess, can we just talk about this?
01:04:13No.
01:04:14No, no, no, no.
01:04:15Thing is, Daniel, you promised me no more secrets.
01:04:18I can't trust you anymore.
01:04:20Jess!
01:04:21Can you just...
01:04:22Looks like you lost, Daniel.
01:04:24You're never getting her back.
01:04:40Oh, thank God you're alive.
01:05:11Dad.
01:05:16Dad, what's the problem with Clara?
01:05:18Her payport was four hours.
01:05:19You're right, boss.
01:05:20I checked with customers in the USCIS.
01:05:23The label confirms that she illegally entered the country.
01:05:26Good.
01:05:27That is enough.
01:05:31Agents, do you think...
01:05:32Wait.
01:05:33What?
01:05:34This is a mistake.
01:05:35No.
01:05:36Jess!
01:05:37Jess!
01:05:38Baby!
01:05:40The ICE agents weren't real.
01:05:43They were hired by Adrian and Lisa to kidnap Clara.
01:05:46Hold on a sec.
01:05:50You're right, boss.
01:05:51We found out those people want her.
01:05:53What should we do?
01:05:55I need to find out where they took them.
01:05:57Use all our contacts.
01:05:58I'm not going to let them get away with this.
01:06:00On it, boss.
01:06:02Well, well, well, Clara.
01:06:05Bet you didn't expect to see me again, did you?
01:06:08We finally have what it takes to get it all back?
01:06:11Don't look at me like that.
01:06:12You disgust me.
01:06:19Jess, we need to talk.
01:06:21I don't want to talk to you.
01:06:22It's about your mom.
01:06:23I don't want to talk to you.
01:06:24I don't want to talk to you.
01:06:25I don't want to talk to you.
01:06:26I don't want to talk to you.
01:06:28I don't want to talk to you.
01:06:29I don't want to talk to you.
01:06:30It's about your mom.
01:06:31I think she was kidnapped by Adrian and Lisa's people.
01:06:33The ICE agents weren't real.
01:06:36What are you talking about?
01:06:38I spoke to Ted.
01:06:39He told me that Clara legally came into the country.
01:06:42It was a setup.
01:06:44Do you actually expect me to believe that?
01:06:47After all the lies?
01:06:48You're so full of shit, Daniel!
01:06:51Hello, bastard child.
01:06:53Yes, we have your mother.
01:06:55And if you ever want to see her again,
01:06:57follow the directions to the address that we just sent you.
01:07:00And don't bring anyone.
01:07:01Especially Daniel.
01:07:06Let me come with you.
01:07:07No, they want me alone.
01:07:08I don't want to risk it.
01:07:09Jess.
01:07:10Don't follow me.
01:07:11I will not let you do this alone.
01:07:13I will not let you do this alone.
01:07:15I will not let you do this alone.
01:07:16I will not let you do this alone.
01:07:17I will not let you do this alone.
01:07:18I will not let you do this alone.
01:07:20I will not let you do this alone.
01:07:25Mom?
01:07:26Bastard child, over here.
01:07:29Let her go.
01:07:30This has gone on far enough.
01:07:32Not so fast, sis.
01:07:34This is only the beginning.
01:07:40You sign this.
01:07:42We let her go.
01:07:44And what is it?
01:07:45An agreement signing everything over to us.
01:07:48The house.
01:07:50The company.
01:07:52Everything.
01:08:00It's signed.
01:08:03Now let her go.
01:08:04God, you are so naive, sis.
01:08:08What more do you want?
01:08:10Get down on your knees and show that you know your place.
01:08:14Get down on your knees and show that you know your place.
01:08:19Wait.
01:08:24That's better.
01:08:32Now bark like a dog.
01:08:38Come on.
01:08:45That's enough, Kristen.
01:08:51We're getting out of here, Monk.
01:08:58Let's get her out of here.
01:09:00Come on, let's go.
01:09:02God, Daniel!
01:09:06We can't.
01:09:08We can't finish this.
01:09:09Mom, we gotta go.
01:09:10Come on.
01:09:12Daniel!
01:09:14Daniel!
01:09:18Jess.
01:09:21Don't try and talk to the police.
01:09:23They're on their way.
01:09:24Jess.
01:09:26I'm so sorry.
01:09:27Why are you apologizing?
01:09:29Just don't move.
01:09:40The doctor said it was nothing serious.
01:09:42So you'll be out of here soon.
01:09:45Jess, I just want to apologize.
01:09:47I am so sorry.
01:09:49Daniel, what are you apologizing for?
01:09:52You saved my mom. You saved us.
01:09:57Hello again, Mr. Thornton.
01:09:59Officer, you're here.
01:10:01Yes.
01:10:02You promised me last week we'd get that interview done.
01:10:07Officer, my husband is injured.
01:10:10He's literally lying in bed.
01:10:12Well, that doesn't change the requirements.
01:10:15Jess, it's okay.
01:10:18We can do the interview.
01:10:23We can do the interview.
01:10:26Are you insane?
01:10:28We haven't rehearsed this.
01:10:30Jess, when you see we've been rehearsing this whole Christmas,
01:10:35there's no better time to do this.
01:10:37You're right.
01:10:40We're ready, officer.
01:10:42Let's start with the question I asked you last week.
01:10:45When did you two first meet?
01:10:47Five years and four months ago.
01:10:49I don't understand.
01:10:51Last time you said it was six months ago,
01:10:54and the other one said it was eight months ago.
01:10:56We lied, officer.
01:10:58But it was five years ago.
01:11:00At a pool party.
01:11:02And we had our first kiss when we first met.
01:11:06It sounds pretty far-fetched.
01:11:08But for some reason,
01:11:10I want to give you two the benefit of the doubt.
01:11:15It sounds pretty far-fetched.
01:11:18But for some reason,
01:11:20I want to give you two the benefit of the doubt.
01:11:23Daniel risked his life to save me and my mother.
01:11:27There's nothing more that he needs to do to prove his love for me.
01:11:30One last question.
01:11:32One last question.
01:11:34How frequently have you two spent the night together in the past week?
01:11:44Relax.
01:11:45I can tell it's been at least three times.
01:11:48Right. Well, that's my interview done.
01:11:51You two are quite the couple.
01:11:53Thank you, officer.
01:11:55Daniel.
01:11:56Daniel.
01:11:57She's coming.
01:11:58Who's coming?
01:12:03Your fiancé.
01:12:05That's who.
01:12:10Your fiancé.
01:12:12That's who.
01:12:13Ashley.
01:12:15I guess I'm not done yet.
01:12:17You betrayed my family's trust, Daniel.
01:12:20Ashley.
01:12:22Please.
01:12:23Can't we talk about this?
01:12:25So you're Jessica Miller, huh?
01:12:27Adrian's told me all about you.
01:12:30Adrian's told me all about you.
01:12:32I don't know what Adrian told you, but it's not what you think.
01:12:37Daniel was supposed to marry me.
01:12:40And then you just waltzed in and ruined everything.
01:12:44Ashley.
01:12:45Our engagement was long over before Jessica came to the picture.
01:12:51Oh.
01:12:52I see.
01:12:53You think this is over.
01:12:57I'm the heiress of the Wimbledon family.
01:13:00The Thornton name is as good as ruined.
01:13:05You can't do that, Ashley.
01:13:11Watch me.
01:13:16You're not the only heiress here.
01:13:22I own Miller Empire.
01:13:25And if you come for the Thorntons, the Miller Empire is gonna come for you so hard.
01:13:37You've got guts, Jessica.
01:13:40I like you.
01:13:44I gotta tell you, I didn't expect that.
01:13:47This is so much better than watching TV.
01:13:49Glad to see you've replaced me with someone with a little fire, Daniel.
01:13:56I always knew Daniel didn't love me, but he was too afraid of his father to ever go after his true love.
01:14:05But I guess I'm happy that he's found someone who wants the same things as him.
01:14:13So... that's it?
01:14:18That's it.
01:14:21Yeah.
01:14:23Enjoy your happy ending, darling.
01:14:29Andrea? Bring the car around.
01:14:34Did that actually just happen?
01:14:36Yeah.
01:14:37Wow.
01:14:39You two really don't let anyone or anything get in the way of true love.
01:14:44Let me see that car.
01:14:47This is all your fault, Mom.
01:14:49If you wouldn't have been so reckless, then maybe we wouldn't be in this mess.
01:14:52Don't put all the blame on me. You're just as much a part of this as I am.
01:14:56Where is Ainsley? She should be here by now.
01:14:59Miss me?
01:15:01Where have you been?
01:15:02Just tying up a few loose ends.
01:15:04Don't worry about it. Everything's going according to plan.
01:15:07Plan? What plan? Everything's falling apart.
01:15:17What did you do, Adrian?
01:15:24Well, me myself? I done nothing illegal.
01:15:27You two on the other hand, that's a different story.
01:15:31You set us up!
01:15:33I'm just ensuring my own safety.
01:15:35After all, I kept my hands clean.
01:15:40Ow!
01:15:43You're not going to get away with this, asshole!
01:15:46I already have.
01:15:54I remember when this place was filled with warmth and laughter.
01:15:58It used to be a real family home back then, but then things just went south.
01:16:04Things will be fine again, Mom, I promise.
01:16:07We'll turn this into a good family house.
01:16:09No more hatred, no more backstabbing.
01:16:13I missed you every single day, Jess.
01:16:15I'm so sorry for everything both of us had to go through.
01:16:22Jessica?
01:16:23Clara?
01:16:25I am so sorry for everything that I've done to you both.
01:16:30I was wrong.
01:16:32And I know I can never fully make up for it, but I want to try.
01:16:36James, you kept us apart for so many years.
01:16:39It's going to be hard to forgive and forget.
01:16:41I know, Clara.
01:16:46Jess, are you alright?
01:16:50Yeah, I know, I'm fine.
01:16:53I just feel...
01:16:55I just feel nauseous, that's all.
01:16:58Have you been getting any other symptoms, like dizziness or fatigue?
01:17:04Well, yeah, but I just thought that was from all the stress.
01:17:10Sweetheart, you're pregnant!
01:17:14Really?
01:17:15You're showing all the signs, Jess.
01:17:19We're going to have a baby!
01:17:22Wait, that means I'm going to be a grandpa!
01:17:27Yeah!
01:17:34Daniel.
01:17:37There's something you need to do.
01:17:41What's this?
01:17:42This is a ring your grandma left.
01:17:45And I think this is the perfect time to use it.
01:17:49Go get it.
01:17:50I'm going to do this?
01:17:51Yeah, go.
01:18:04Jess?
01:18:05Jess!
01:18:09Jess, I know we've only ever spent time together a week during Christmas.
01:18:13And we've been through so much in that time.
01:18:16And over the past five years, all I've wanted to do is be with you.
01:18:20And I've had to endure the pain of that not being possible.
01:18:23I want to spend every waking moment in time with you.
01:18:27What I'm trying to say is, Jess...
01:18:33Will you marry me?
01:18:36For real this time.
01:18:38Yes, Daniel, yes I will marry you!
01:18:41Yes!
01:18:42Really?
01:18:43Yes!
