00:04:05Jess it's okay.
00:04:07Just wait here.
00:04:08I'll handle it.
00:04:11What?
00:04:16Why are you helping that girl?
00:04:17Kristen Miller is our ally.
00:04:19And she wants her the hell out of this picture.
00:04:22It's too late dad.
00:04:23We already got married.
00:04:24Are you insane?
00:04:26Did you forget you're supposed to marry Ashley?
00:04:31Daniel Thornton.
00:04:34My mother is gone because of you?
00:04:36Well we had a little help from James Thornton.
00:04:39The most powerful man in the Thornton family.
00:04:43Wait I recognize that face.
00:04:46From the newspaper that was James Thornton.
00:04:49From the Thornton family.
00:04:50The family responsible for my mother's disappearance.
00:04:58Stop telling me what I can and cannot do.
00:05:00She saved my life.
00:05:01I owe it to her.
00:05:02Roll the hell up Daniel.
00:05:04You need to remember your position as the heir to our family.
00:05:07And you need to divorce that girl.
00:05:09Now I'm doing all this to clean your mess up.
00:05:13Just leave us alone.
00:05:22Sorry about that.
00:05:24Is your name Daniel Thornton?
00:05:28Yeah.
00:05:30The Thornton family are responsible for the disappearance of my mother.
00:05:35I have been searching for her my entire life.
00:05:39Yes.
00:05:40No.
00:05:41I can explain.
00:05:41I'm not marrying Thornton.
00:05:42Wait, wait, wait.
00:05:43Jess, Jess.
00:05:45I'm not who you think I am.
00:05:46I have nothing to do with that family.
00:05:48Oh really? Because your name is right here on the marriage certificate.
00:05:53I share the last name as Thornton.
00:05:55But I am not one of them.
00:05:56Thornton is a common name.
00:05:58Just an ordinary guy.
00:05:59Really? Well I don't believe you.
00:06:01I saw you talking to James Thornton.
00:06:04Is he your father?
00:06:08Is he your father?
00:06:09No, he's not my father.
00:06:10He was threatening to drive you out of the country and I was not going to have anything to do with it.
00:06:14Jess, I'm on your side.
00:06:17You're not one of them.
00:06:19I'm sorry.
00:06:23It's okay.
00:06:24Don't worry about it.
00:06:29You have a nice apartment.
00:06:32Welcome.
00:06:34Is that your Labrador?
00:06:36It looks exactly like mine.
00:06:37I got mine as a Christmas present when I was nine.
00:06:40No way.
00:06:41I got mine as a Christmas present when I was nine.
00:06:43That's crazy.
00:06:48Jess, we're gonna have to sleep in the same room together just in case immigration ambush us.
00:06:52Yeah, but are you sure you're okay sleeping on the carpet?
00:06:56I mean you've done so much for me already and I just...
00:06:59Jess, please.
00:07:00I insist.
00:07:01We made a deal, remember?
00:07:03I also want to thank you for giving me the chance to get rich.
00:07:09It's okay, Daniel.
00:07:32Jess, what are you spying on?
00:07:45No.
00:07:46No, no, no, no.
00:07:47I was just passing by and just...
00:07:51Do you need anything?
00:07:52I was joking.
00:07:53Uh, yeah.
00:07:54Could you, uh, pass me the towel that's just hanging up next to the door?
00:07:59Uh, yeah, sure, sure.
00:08:03Hey.
00:08:15Oh my god.
00:08:16What?
00:08:16I just got fired.
00:08:21Uh, wait, Jess, let me go with you.
00:08:26Yeah.
00:08:33Sam, please don't fire me.
00:08:39I'm sorry, Jess, but your immigration issue put us in a tough spot.
00:08:46I worked for this company for years.
00:08:49I'm sorry, Jess.
00:08:50There's nothing I can do.
00:08:54Sorry.
00:08:59Look who's here.
00:09:01Someone who just got fired.
00:09:04This suits you.
00:09:09It was you.
00:09:11I should have known you were behind this.
00:09:12I'm not going to let you stay here and ruin things.
00:09:15I'm going to take away everything you have, sister.
00:09:22You just made a big mistake, sir.
00:09:24Who are you?
00:09:25My name is Daniel Thornton.
00:09:27Son, James Thornton.
00:09:29The chairman of Thornton Enterprise.
00:09:32Oh, uh, Mr. Thornton, uh, welcome.
00:09:37What brings you here?
00:09:40Well, I have some good news for you.
00:09:43Jessica Miller, she's just closed a billion dollar deal.
00:09:48Take a look.
00:09:59Oh, my God.
00:10:05It's real.
00:10:07Absolutely.
00:10:08With her hard work and dedication, she's made this possible.
00:10:12It's a real shame you're going to lose such a valuable employee.
00:10:15Oh, uh, Mr. Thornton, um, I have made a huge mistake.
00:10:22Uh, Jessica will stay.
00:10:25Good.
00:10:27And, uh, make sure nobody knows we had this conversation.
00:10:35Jessica, you should have told me.
00:10:42What are you talking about, Sam?
00:10:44Jessica, you secured a huge deal for the company.
00:10:49Did you not just fire her?
00:10:51I changed my mind.
00:10:53Jessica's staying.
00:10:55Actually, she's being promoted to sales manager.
00:11:00Can't afford to lose someone as valuable as like her.
00:11:04Great.
00:11:05Thanks, Sam.
00:11:07This is not over.
00:11:13I can't believe it.
00:11:14Jessica kept her job and she gets promoted.
00:11:17Don't worry, Lisa.
00:11:19I just spoke with James Thornton and he had the lawyer change the will in our favor.
00:11:24Jessica will get nothing.
00:11:26Oh my god, that's fantastic.
00:11:40No way.
00:11:47Jessica, how's work?
00:11:50Did you get your job back?
00:11:52Daniel, I need a lawyer.
00:12:01Wow, look who decided to show up.
00:12:04Too bad for you, Jess.
00:12:05Turns out daddy's will left you nothing.
00:12:09I knew all along Robert wouldn't leave anything for this little pathetic bastard child.
00:12:16You are out of luck.
00:12:17That's a lie.
00:12:19You showed me the will.
00:12:21And I signed the documents.
00:12:24I'm sorry, Jessica.
00:12:25I've just discovered a revised will.
00:12:27It supports Kristen and Lisa's claims.
00:12:33Mr. Thornton.
00:12:34Who is this?
00:12:35He's my lawyer.
00:12:36And a damn good one.
00:12:38Oh.
00:12:39You know, Jess, I didn't realize you had enough money to pay for a fancy little lawyer.
00:12:44You sleep with him?
00:12:46Patrick, can I have a word with you outside?
00:12:50Talk all you want.
00:12:51It won't change anything.
00:13:00All right, Patrick.
00:13:02I'm gonna keep this short and sweet.
00:13:03I know you changed the will to favor Kristen and Lisa.
00:13:06I know what you're talking about, Mr. Thornton.
00:13:09The revised will's solid.
00:13:11Ted found an email exchange with my father.
00:13:13Here, take a look.
00:13:16You've been caught, Patrick.
00:13:18Honor of the will, I'll report you to the Bar Association.
00:13:21You'll lose your license and any chance of practicing law or gain.
00:13:24That goes against your father's wishes.
00:13:26You don't understand the position he put me in.
00:13:28I'll deal with my father.
00:13:29Don't you worry about that.
00:13:32You just worry about doing the right thing.
00:13:39Um, this revised will is a fake.
00:13:42The original will's stamped.
00:13:43What the hell are you doing?
00:13:44He's doing the right thing.
00:13:48Jessica, you've got your inheritance back.
00:13:51Congratulations.
00:13:53Oh my god.
00:13:56Patrick, do what you are supposed to do
00:13:59or James will make sure you face the consequences.
00:14:04Don't listen to her, Patrick.
00:14:06I'll deal with James Thornton.
00:14:08Who the hell do you think you are?
00:14:10James Thornton is one of the most powerful men in this town.
00:14:14I sure can.
00:14:16Isn't that right, Patrick?
00:14:18Yes, the original will stands.
00:14:20No, you are crazy.
00:14:22No, I'm not.
00:14:23According to the original will, Jessica stands to inherit this mansion.
00:14:27Kristen, you're out.
00:14:30I think you two should leave.
00:14:31You homewrecker.
00:14:33Just like your mother.
00:14:35I will not allow violence.
00:14:38I didn't come here to argue over a house and assets.
00:14:43I came here to be recognized as an actual member of this family.
00:14:47It's easy for you to say you're getting everything.
00:14:49You don't know how lucky you are, Lisa.
00:14:52You grew up with a father who loved you.
00:14:54I had none.
00:14:55And you took my mother away from me and I still don't know where she is.
00:15:01You two don't deserve this mansion.
00:15:04And I would rather give it away to charity
00:15:07than to see the two of you living it.
00:15:09You two should pack your things up.
00:15:11You have one week to leave this house.
00:15:22What the hell were you thinking?
00:15:24Sabotaging my plan?
00:15:26I was just doing the right thing.
00:15:28The right thing?
00:15:29Going against me?
00:15:31Kristen Miller has got no power anymore.
00:15:33She's got nothing to do with this.
00:15:35She's got nothing to do with this.
00:15:37Kristen Miller has got no power anymore.
00:15:39Her game is over.
00:15:41I'm sure you didn't come all this way just to argue with me.
00:15:44So what do you want?
00:15:47I just want Jessica to get her mom back.
00:15:51Interesting.
00:15:55What's in it for me?
00:15:57Once Jessica gets her mom back, I'll do whatever you want.
00:16:01Whatever I want?
00:16:03Like what exactly?
00:16:05I'll marry Ashley.
00:16:08You'll marry Ashley?
00:16:10Yeah.
00:16:11You're willing to do that?
00:16:13Yeah, I am.
00:16:16But only if she's reunited with her mother.
00:16:20Okay, deal.
00:16:23I'll make the arrangements.
00:16:25So you're really in love with this one, huh?
00:16:27Yeah, I am.
00:16:30Okay, good.
00:16:32I sure hope she's worth it.
00:16:35She is.
00:16:40What's wrong?
00:16:41We have a guest.
00:16:45Mr. Thornton, good to see you again.
00:16:49Interview time.
00:16:50Great.
00:16:54When did you two meet?
00:16:56We met at a friend's party two years ago.
00:16:59What do you say, Jessica?
00:17:02Oh, yeah, yeah.
00:17:05Interesting.
00:17:07And when did you decide to get married?
00:17:09Eight months ago.
00:17:12Six months or eight months?
00:17:13Which one is it?
00:17:14Yeah, eight months ago.
00:17:15Sorry, I just...
00:17:16Sorry, I'm always getting mixed up.
00:17:19Sure, easy mistake to make.
00:17:23And what's your anniversary date?
00:17:25March 15th.
00:17:26March 15th?
00:17:29All right, thank you.
00:17:33Uh, that's it?
00:17:36Yes, Mr. Thornton.
00:17:37I have everything I need.
00:17:39I'll report back to the judges.
00:17:43Oh, wait, uh, this.
00:17:48How did we do in there?
00:17:52It was pretty bad.
00:17:56Look, I'm the son of James Thornton.
00:18:00I know who you are.
00:18:02Um, okay.
00:18:06You want to bribe me?
00:18:09Yes.
00:18:09I can't be bribed.
00:18:11Here's one million dollars.
00:18:17Two million dollars.
00:18:20Right.
00:18:24Three million dollars.
00:18:26It's tempting, but like I said, you can't bribe me.
00:18:29Please, can you just give us one more week to prepare?
00:18:33I really want to be with this woman.
00:18:36She means the world to me.
00:18:37She saved my life.
00:18:39I'm not going to take your money, but I'll give you one week.
00:18:42Make it count.
00:18:44Next time, I want to see some genuine affection between you two.
00:18:47If anything seems a bit off, your game's up.
00:18:50Of course.
00:18:51And one more thing.
00:18:54I can tell you two haven't had sex yet.
00:18:57I'm that good, Mr. Daniel?
00:19:00Don't try and fool me.
00:19:06She gave us another chance.
00:19:07Oh, thank God.
00:19:09We have one week to get our story straight.
00:19:12Thank you, Daniel.
00:19:14You've been very, very helpful today.
00:19:30Now, I wanted to make our first Christmas special,
00:19:37so I did a little digging and I found this.
00:19:41This tree is amazing.
00:19:48What happened?
00:19:51Let me have a look.
00:19:59Um, I have a festive gift for you two.
00:20:30Wow.
00:20:34Jess, you look gorgeous.
00:20:42And then I told him that's not how you negotiate.
00:20:45You did it!
00:20:46I did.
00:21:29Did I do something wrong?
00:21:31Maybe.
00:21:33Maybe not.
00:21:49And that is how you negotiate.
00:21:54You're not like that.
00:21:59Uh, hold on.
00:22:12I got this.
00:22:59That watch looks familiar.
00:23:14You know, I've seen this before in the, uh, in the magazine.
00:23:18That looks like one of those, um,
00:23:22Thornton family watches.
00:23:26Is it real?
00:23:27Uh, no, it's fake.
00:23:35You wear a fake watch?
00:23:36Yeah.
00:23:47I'm so happy, Jess.
00:23:53There's also something I need to tell you about your mom.
00:23:57What?
00:24:12Oh my god, did I just sleep with Daniel last night?
00:24:17I told him it would only be a contract marriage.
00:24:28Good morning.
00:24:29This is the most beautiful morning that I've ever had.
00:24:32Daniel, I'm, I'm so sorry about last night.
00:24:37It was, it wasn't supposed to happen and I promise it'll never happen again.
00:24:44She didn't mean it.
00:24:46Oh, Jessica, last night was amazing.
00:24:52Yeah, Jess, uh, I get it.
00:24:55It was, uh, it was a one-time thing.
00:25:00Yeah, just like, just a one-time thing.
00:25:03Yeah.
00:25:06Anyway, it's, uh, your big day today.
00:25:09You're the new CEO of the Miller Empire.
00:25:14Thank you for the reminder.
00:25:18Now that you mention it, I'm really scared.
00:25:21Oh, no, Jess, I didn't mean it like that.
00:25:25Um, what I was meant to say is I'm gonna help you.
00:25:36I don't know what to do, Mother.
00:25:37That bitch is kicking us out.
00:25:39We still have a chance.
00:25:40That bastard child needs a unanimous vote from the board to be chosen as the next CEO.
00:25:47So we just need a board member to back us up.
00:25:49I will call Richard.
00:25:51Everyone respects Richard's vote, and I will make sure he doesn't vote for her.
00:25:55You should not dig up all the dirt I can find on her.
00:25:58You go, girl.
00:26:10These clothes are beautiful, but, uh, very expensive.
00:26:17Like this one.
00:26:18That is $9,000.
00:26:22Jess, don't worry about it.
00:26:25It's on me.
00:26:26Look at it as, uh, my first gift to my wife.
00:26:30No, Daniel, I can't let you pay for this.
00:26:32Look, Jess, you're gonna be a CEO, which means you've gotta look the part.
00:26:37Trust me.
00:26:38It's an investment.
00:26:41Mr. Thornton, welcome back.
00:26:43How can I assist you today?
00:26:45Come here a lot?
00:26:47Well, of course, Mr. Thornton owns this store.
00:26:50Uh, Jess, why don't you try this one on?
00:26:54You'll look great in it.
00:26:59Wow, Jess, you look amazing.
00:27:03You think so?
00:27:05Yeah, this is exactly what a CEO would wear.
00:27:09Absolutely.
00:27:10Great choice.
00:27:11We'll take this one.
00:27:14Something on your mind?
00:27:16Well, it's probably nothing, but it's just that clerk seemed very fond of you.
00:27:22Oh, uh, being friendly is a part of my job.
00:27:26Okay.
00:27:33So that's how you got your lawyer, huh?
00:27:37Now that you mention it, maybe she was a little friendly.
00:27:41But we got a discount.
00:27:44Show-off.
00:27:46What a slut.
00:27:58Trust me, Jess, you can do this.
00:28:01Yeah, but what if they don't accept me?
00:28:03They will.
00:28:04Trust me.
00:28:04Just speak from the heart.
00:28:06Show your true self.
00:28:09Look at you two little lovebirds.
00:28:16Ted, we're gonna talk about this later.
00:28:19Okay.
00:28:21You go in.
00:28:22I'll meet you in there soon, okay?
00:28:30Good luck in there, sis.
00:28:33You're gonna need it.
00:28:35You don't have any votes.
00:28:40I know my background doesn't seem very typical of a CEO,
00:28:44but I built myself from the bottom up here.
00:28:46Miller Corporation is a leader in tech and services,
00:28:53reaching industries from healthcare to energy.
00:28:56We have over 10,000 employees worldwide
00:29:01who have worked hard to build this company from the ground up.
00:29:04And I was one of them.
00:29:06I know them.
00:29:07And I believe that I can help lead this company to become everyone's company.
00:29:13Let's proceed to the vote.
00:29:15All in favor?
00:29:20Robert lost his damn mind.
00:29:22He picked his secret child to be the CEO
00:29:25only because of his guilty conscience.
00:29:27Richard, if I may-
00:29:29I'm not done talking.
00:29:31You can't lead us.
00:29:33And you're not getting my vote.
00:29:36Richard, if I may speak-
00:29:37Go ahead.
00:29:39But I won't change my mind.
00:29:41Sorry for interrupting everyone,
00:29:42but I have something important to share with you all today.
00:29:45Who the hell are you?
00:29:46Well, Richard, I'm the person who's going to expose you.
00:29:50What did you just say?
00:29:52How do I say this?
00:29:55You're a sex pervert.
00:29:57What?
00:30:00You see, everyone, this file contains multiple sexual harassment lawsuits.
00:30:06This file contains multiple sexual harassment lawsuits against Richard over the past 30 years.
00:30:14Some of them also have ongoing lawsuits.
00:30:17They're all just allegations and they've all been settled.
00:30:20I'm innocent.
00:30:21We've also got in contact with some of the victims
00:30:23and they're willing to come forward and testify.
00:30:25Actually, I have not finished yet.
00:30:28You're also stealing money from the company.
00:30:30And we have financial records to prove it.
00:30:37The evidence is clear.
00:30:39He's guilty.
00:30:42Okay, then.
00:30:43Let's all vote for Richard Donnell's immediate suspension.
00:30:47All in favor?
00:30:52We have 15 votes.
00:30:55The board has decided.
00:30:56Richard Donnell is officially removed from his position.
00:31:00Security, escort him out immediately.
00:31:03I know my way, ma'am.
00:31:06And all in favor of appointing Jessica Miller as the new CEO.
00:31:30I'm sorry, Aisling.
00:31:31I had to make sure I had enough evidence to nail him.
00:31:33No, don't be sorry, Daniel.
00:31:35That was so worth the wait.
00:31:37Good.
00:31:40This is not over.
00:31:41You'll see.
00:31:42How's packing going, Lisa?
00:31:44You're about to be evicted soon.
00:31:52She won again, that bitch.
00:31:54I know.
00:31:54It's so unfair.
00:31:56Do we have a guest?
00:31:57Lisa, honey.
00:31:59I've been trying to reach you.
00:32:01Why haven't you returned my calls?
00:32:03I've been busy.
00:32:04Busy.
00:32:05Dealing with Jessica.
00:32:07How did you know?
00:32:08Oh, I know.
00:32:09And I think I know how to help you take it down.
00:32:12Again.
00:32:13No use to me anymore, Adrian.
00:32:15I only needed you to help me get rid of Jessica.
00:32:19To the new CEO of the Miller Empire.
00:32:24Well, I couldn't have done it without you, Daniel.
00:32:27I also have another Christmas surprise for you.
00:32:31Who are you calling?
00:32:35Is it?
00:32:36Yes, Jess.
00:32:38It's your mother, Clara.
00:32:39Oh, my God.
00:32:40Mom.
00:32:41Oh, Jessica, you're a grown woman now.
00:32:45The Miller family threatened to kill you, Jess.
00:32:48I had no option but to vanish.
00:32:51Oh, Mom, it's okay.
00:32:53It's okay.
00:32:54Like, you didn't do anything wrong.
00:32:55I'll bring you back into the country.
00:32:57I promise.
00:32:59Daniel, how did you find her?
00:33:01I have a few powerful friends.
00:33:03They did me a favor.
00:33:05But I'll leave you two alone.
00:33:17Two more, please.
00:33:21Daniel.
00:33:23Adrian.
00:33:24Long time no see, buddy.
00:33:26Oh, my God.
00:33:27How long has it been?
00:33:29Ten years.
00:33:29Ten years.
00:33:31Oh, my God.
00:33:33The last time I must have seen you was, uh, law school.
00:33:36Yep.
00:33:38Go Reds.
00:33:39Go Reds.
00:33:41What are you doing here?
00:33:44Just in town to run some errands.
00:33:46Just thought I'd come here for a quick bite.
00:33:48Nice, man.
00:33:48Nice.
00:33:49I saw your date earlier.
00:33:51She looks pretty.
00:33:53Yeah, my wife.
00:33:55Your wife?
00:33:55Yeah, Jess.
00:33:56You're married?
00:33:57Yes.
00:33:58Yeah, you have to introduce me to her.
00:34:00Come on, let's go say hi.
00:34:02Come and say hello.
00:34:03It's good to see you, buddy.
00:34:03Good to see you, too, man.
00:34:06Jess.
00:34:06I wanted you to meet an old friend of mine.
00:34:08Adrian, this is Jess.
00:34:10Jess, this is Adrian.
00:34:11We went to law school together.
00:34:18I don't want to see him.
00:34:23I don't want to see him.
00:34:27You two know each other?
00:34:28Yes, Daniel.
00:34:30I was her first boyfriend.
00:34:35Come on, Jess.
00:34:36Don't you miss me?
00:34:38I don't want to see you anymore.
00:34:40You know you're still in love with me, Jess.
00:34:43No, I don't.
00:34:47I think you should leave, Adrian.
00:34:50Okay, Daniel.
00:34:51Relax.
00:34:52Now.
00:34:58I'm leaving.
00:34:59Okay.
00:35:03Does she know she's lying?
00:35:08Boss, Adrian Wesley now represents Lisa and Kristen Miller.
00:35:12They wanted to test the wit.
00:35:14I should have known.
00:35:16What else?
00:35:17Adrian also used me, Jessica.
00:35:19Actually, he's the one who sabotaged Jessica's immigration paperwork.
00:35:24It caused all this trouble.
00:35:29That son of a bitch.
00:35:31We need to win this war.
00:35:33Do whatever it takes.
00:35:42Daniel?
00:35:44Sorry, did I wake you?
00:35:47No, can...
00:35:49Can you join me in bed, please?
00:35:55You sure?
00:35:59I just... I wanted to apologize for earlier.
00:36:05The restaurant.
00:36:08I got a bit carried away.
00:36:10Jess, you don't need to apologize.
00:36:14Adrian's an asshole.
00:36:15He's just trying to do it to get under your skin.
00:36:17I did care for Adrian once.
00:36:21But he just destroyed everything we had.
00:36:24I want you to know...
00:36:26That I'm here because of you.
00:36:30And you're the only one who I love.
00:36:35No one else.
00:36:48I love you too, Jess.
00:36:50And I'm not going anywhere.
00:36:56Good morning, husband.
00:36:58Morning, wife.
00:37:00Are you ready for your big day as the new CEO?
00:37:02If only you were with me.
00:37:25You're gonna do great today.
00:37:44Jess, here's your coffee.
00:37:50What's wrong?
00:37:51No, it's just, it's this job.
00:37:53It's all so new to me.
00:37:55Okay, calm down.
00:37:57Remember, you're the CEO.
00:37:59Which means you're the boss.
00:38:02Yeah, but I don't know how to be a boss.
00:38:05Hey, Jess.
00:38:07Look at you sitting in the big chair now.
00:38:10Oh, Giovanna, I am so happy you're here.
00:38:16You must be Daniel.
00:38:19Jessica's been talking about you for days.
00:38:23I'm flattered.
00:38:24I really wish you could be here with me, G.
00:38:26It's exhausting.
00:38:27Oh, at least you have a job, Jess.
00:38:29I've been looking for work for the past two months.
00:38:33Jess, do you like Gianna being here?
00:38:40Of course.
00:38:41We've been besties since forever.
00:38:44Yeah, what kind of question is that?
00:38:46Well, why don't you use your CEO power and hire Gianna?
00:38:53Oh, I don't, I know what you mean.
00:38:55I don't understand.
00:38:57How would you like to come work for me?
00:39:03Of course.
00:39:06Okay, then.
00:39:07My first order as a CEO.
00:39:11Gianna, you are hired as my personal assistant.
00:39:16Oh my god, Jess, thank you so much.
00:39:19See, being a boss is easy.
00:39:21You can do whatever you want.
00:39:30Oh my god.
00:39:32What's wrong?
00:39:33The company's stock prices are dropping like crazy.
00:39:36What is happening?
00:39:39This isn't good.
00:39:41The stock's getting down.
00:39:42Well, well, well.
00:39:45Looks like things aren't going so well.
00:39:47What did you do, Lisa?
00:39:49I asked Richard and some of the other investors to sell their stocks.
00:39:54The board members are not going to be happy about the stock prices, Jessica.
00:39:58What do you want?
00:39:59Resign as CEO or I will destroy this company.
00:40:04Yeah, no way.
00:40:06Okay.
00:40:08Then I will destroy this company.
00:40:10Jessica, the board members are asking to meet with you.
00:40:13They're angry.
00:40:20Well, what are you going to do, Jess?
00:40:22Okay, I'll meet with the board.
00:40:25Wait, Jess, don't go.
00:40:28Take a seat.
00:40:29What is it?
00:40:31Lisa, are you sure the stock prices are going down?
00:40:35Because to me, they seem to be going up and up.
00:40:39That's impossible.
00:40:40You would need at least a billion dollars.
00:40:43I guess anything's possible these days.
00:40:46God damn it!
00:40:49God, she's annoying.
00:40:54You must be my lucky star.
00:41:03Daniel?
00:41:06Gianna?
00:41:07I know who you are, Daniel.
00:41:09You're the son of James Thornton.
00:41:12How'd you find out?
00:41:13My identity is meant to be a secret.
00:41:15I used to work for your father.
00:41:16Please don't tell Jess.
00:41:18I'll pay you.
00:41:19How much do you want?
00:41:20I don't want your money.
00:41:22I care for my friend.
00:41:24Actually, your father fired me because I tried to help Jessica.
00:41:28I'm sorry, Gianna.
00:41:30It's okay.
00:41:32I just want to know why.
00:41:34She hates my family.
00:41:36I have to lie to her.
00:41:38She hates your family, but she loves you.
00:41:42I can see that.
00:41:44You really think so?
00:41:46Yes.
00:41:47I love her, too.
00:41:49She's the best thing that's ever happened to me.
00:41:54That's good to hear.
00:41:56Please protect her.
00:42:04Daniel, it's my mom.
00:42:08Adrian threatened her.
00:42:14Adrian threatened my mom on the phone.
00:42:17He said he was going to block her from entering the country.
00:42:20What should we do?
00:42:23Jess, I don't want you to worry about it.
00:42:25I'm going to make sure your mom gets here safely.
00:42:43Ted, I need you to make sure Jessica's mom
00:42:46gets here safely.
00:42:48Book her on the first flight out tomorrow.
00:42:49Got it, boss.
00:42:50She'll be here in town the day after tomorrow.
00:42:53Good.
00:43:00Jess has been taken care of.
00:43:02Your mom's going to be here the day after tomorrow.
00:43:06Thank you, Daniel.
00:43:09But I'm...
00:43:11I'm still scared.
00:43:13I just... I need a day off.
00:43:15I love the sound of that.
00:43:17What'd you have in mind?
00:43:18I was thinking...
00:43:23I want to buy a house.
00:43:34So...
00:43:36Do you like this place?
00:43:38It's amazing.
00:43:40But, Jess, I appreciate the gesture.
00:43:43But you don't need to buy me a house.
00:43:47No, no.
00:43:48I insist.
00:43:49You've done so much to help me.
00:43:53Besides, we can live together here.
00:43:55Mr. Thornton.
00:43:57Hi.
00:43:58Your father is here.
00:43:59Are you meeting him here?
00:44:05Well, I've never met your parents,
00:44:09so I'm pretty excited to meet an in-law.
00:44:13In-law?
00:44:14Oh, is...
00:44:16Is that him?
00:44:17Come on, let's go say hi.
00:44:19Jess, wait.
00:44:20Uh, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.
00:44:23Um...
00:44:26I might not have told my dad about you and our marriage.
00:44:29Why?
00:44:30Uh...
00:44:32Because he has a heart condition.
00:44:35I think it's best you stay here.
00:44:37Okay.
00:44:39I'll just stay here, then.
00:44:43Okay.
00:44:49Dad?
00:44:51Come on.
00:44:52Damn.
00:44:52What the hell?
00:44:53Jessica's here.
00:44:54She can't see her face.
00:44:55Don't take them off.
00:44:58I want to talk to you about Ashley, Daniel.
00:45:05Why hasn't Daniel told his father about me and our wedding?
00:45:08Ashley, really?
00:45:10Not today.
00:45:13And what is this shirt you're wearing?
00:45:16Mother insisted I wear it in this charity event in the morning.
00:45:20Right.
00:45:21Said it makes me look more grounded.
00:45:25And approachable.
00:45:28And don't go changing our subject.
00:45:30I want to discuss our agreement.
00:45:32I give you Clara, and you marry Ashley.
00:45:40Why does he look so nervous?
00:45:43Am I not good enough?
00:45:48Do we have to talk about this right now?
00:45:50I held up my end of the bargain, Daniel.
00:45:53I want this deal done now.
00:45:55Actually, Clara isn't safe yet.
00:45:58Lisa Miller might try and be sabotaging everything.
00:46:00This is why you don't mess with the Miller family.
00:46:04You should have left it alone.
00:46:05All I'm asking is just a few more days.
00:46:08Ashley is coming to town in a few days.
00:46:11What?
00:46:13Jess!
00:46:14Jess.
00:46:24Dad, this is Jess.
00:46:26Jess, this is Dad.
00:46:28You can call him Jimmy.
00:46:30Jimmy?
00:46:34I'm Jimmy, sweetie.
00:46:35It's lovely to meet you, Jimmy.
00:46:37And can I just say, that is a lovely Hawaiian shirt.
00:46:41It really, really suits you.
00:46:43Well, thank you, Jessica.
00:46:45It's one I'm fond of.
00:46:49So, who is Ashley?
00:46:52I heard you guys talking about her earlier.
00:46:54Oh, she's just an old family friend.
00:47:00They grew up and went to law school together.
00:47:04And she had Daniel's first kiss.
00:47:07Oh.
00:47:08Her wedding is approaching soon and I'd like Daniel to attend.
00:47:13Dad!
00:47:15I'm reminiscing about the good old days.
00:47:17No, it's fine.
00:47:18Honestly, it's lovely to hear about Daniel's childhood and more about his life.
00:47:22You bastard child!
00:47:29Well, well.
00:47:30What do we have here?
00:47:33You think you can afford this place?
00:47:35You're about to lose this battle and be out on the streets soon.
00:47:40Who's this clown?
00:47:45Looks like he belongs in a circus.
00:47:46How dare you, Kristen!
00:47:49How do you know my name?
00:47:51And don't you dare call me by my first name.
00:47:53That's enough!
00:47:56Don't talk to my father like that.
00:48:02He's your father.
00:48:05How does it feel to be a father of such a loser?
00:48:08Don't talk to my family like that.
00:48:11Your family.
00:48:12Your family suck, Jessica.
00:48:15Especially your mother.
00:48:17The home-wrecking tramp.
00:48:20A whore.
00:48:29Your family suck, Jessica.
00:48:32Especially your mother.
00:48:34The home-wrecking tramp.
00:48:37A whore.
00:48:39Damn!
00:48:44How dare you slap me?
00:48:47That is enough, Kristen.
00:48:51You're not gonna wear hair no more.
00:48:56Ladies, you need to leave.
00:48:57Now.
00:48:58You can't throw us out.
00:49:00We're buyers.
00:49:00We're not going anywhere.
00:49:01The owner of this property has banned you from coming here.
00:49:04You need to leave now or I will call security.
00:49:09You will regret this.
00:49:13I've heard that a thousand times.
00:49:16Now leave.
00:49:27Thank you, Jessica.
00:49:29You stood up for me.
00:49:30Well, we're family, Jimmy.
00:49:32It's what I'm supposed to do.
00:49:37Well, I appreciate it.
00:49:41You're a nice girl.
00:49:43You found a good wife, son.
00:49:47Dad.
00:49:48About Ashley's wedding.
00:49:50I don't think I'm gonna be able to make it.
00:49:52I'll look into it.
00:49:53I'll speak to her about it.
00:49:55Oh, no, no, no, no.
00:49:57Daniel can still attend.
00:49:58It's not a problem.
00:50:00Jess, I just want to focus on you and I.
00:50:03I'm not the jealous type.
00:50:05Plus, I don't want you to miss your first crush's wedding.
00:50:09Well, you decide, Daniel.
00:50:12Oh, there's a long party.
00:50:14You two want to come?
00:50:15It's in three hours.
00:50:18Yeah.
00:50:20Dad, we'll go.
00:50:21Great.
00:50:23I'll see you there.
00:50:30Well, this place is extremely high class.
00:50:40Well, my dad has a few rich friends.
00:50:46And James Thornton is here.
00:50:50I know you don't want to see him.
00:50:53But Jess, my dad's here.
00:50:55He's gonna join us later.
00:50:56Okay.
00:50:58Oh, the bidding's about to start.
00:51:04Oh, that bitch is here!
00:51:06I know.
00:51:08Don't worry, we can teach him a lesson.
00:51:09Yeah, how?
00:51:10Let's see if Daniel can handle a little humiliation.
00:51:15With money.
00:51:16Here with money?
00:51:17What money?
00:51:17I haven't gotten my inheritance back yet.
00:51:19Yeah, I know.
00:51:20Your mother spoke to Richard.
00:51:22He said he's willing to donate us some cash if we make Jessica look ugly.
00:51:26Oh.
00:51:28You're the best.
00:51:31I know.
00:51:37Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to this evening's auction.

00:52:07What are they doing?
00:52:08Where did they get that money from?
00:52:09I don't know, but they're definitely trying to humiliate you here.
00:52:12Really?
00:52:13But I don't even care about this bid.

00:52:46That just happened.

00:52:52Awesome.
00:52:53Okay, ten million.
00:52:55Once.
00:52:56Twice.
00:52:57Sold.
00:52:58Two gentlemen there.
00:53:07Where did you get that money from?
00:53:09Well, do you remember me telling you about I have a powerful friend?
00:53:15Yeah, the one who helped me find my mother.
00:53:19Jessica.
00:53:19James Thornton.
00:53:22In the flesh.
00:53:23Or Mrs. Thornton.
00:53:25I want to apologize to you.
00:53:27I am truly sorry for everything I did to you and your mother.
00:53:31But I'm trying my best to make amends.
00:53:35Well, I don't know what to say.
00:53:39Jess, I know it's a lot to handle.
00:53:40You've just got to trust me.
00:53:42Yeah, but why didn't you just tell me in the first place, Daniel?
00:53:45Jess!
00:53:47Jessica!
00:53:48Don't follow me!
00:53:52Oh, this could get interesting.
00:54:09Look who's alone.
00:54:11You know, just leave me alone.
00:54:13You're never gonna win against James Thornton.
00:54:15He's my mother's best friend.
00:54:17You're gonna lose everything.
00:54:18Poor baby.
00:54:19Still played by the baby.
00:54:21James Thornton and his son have been playing you all along.
00:54:26Wait, what did you just say?
00:54:28James Thornton and his son?
00:54:31Wait, Jess, you didn't know?
00:54:32Daniel Thornton is his son.
00:54:37Oh my god.
00:54:38I didn't know that.
00:54:40Now that I do.
00:54:42That's enough!
00:54:44Oh, excuse me, Mr. Thornton.
00:54:47Crown Prince said the Thornton family.
00:54:59This man's been lying to you all along.
00:55:01Poor little girl's got no one to trust.
00:55:04Both of you, get out of here.
00:55:06I...
00:55:14Jess, I've been trying to tell you.
00:55:15Am I a joke to you?
00:55:17No.
00:55:18What do you mean?
00:55:19You and your father.
00:55:22You've been playing me this whole time.
00:55:24No, I've been standing by your side all the time, Jess.
00:55:28I can't trust you.
00:55:31You lied to me.
00:55:32You're right.
00:55:33You lied to me.
00:55:35You're right.
00:55:37You're right.
00:55:40I have been hiding things from you.
00:55:44You know what I haven't told you yet?
00:55:47Another big secret.
00:55:50Are you sure you want to hear this?
00:55:57The other big secret is,
00:55:59the first time we met isn't what you think it is.
00:56:03It was five years ago.
00:56:05Five years ago?
00:56:06Yes.
00:56:08At a party.
00:56:11I was drunk and I fell in a pool.
00:56:21Oh, thank God you're alive.
00:56:27I was drowning and you saved my life.
00:56:30But you won't remember that.
00:56:33But I will forever be grateful for what you did for me that day.
00:56:37That...
00:56:39That was you?
00:56:40Yes.
00:56:41My father forbid me from seeing you.
00:56:44But I didn't care.
00:56:46I confronted him.
00:56:48You can't tell me what to do, Dad!
00:56:49You can't stop me from seeing her!
00:56:51I'm doing what's best for you, Daniel.
00:56:53That girl and all her family are nothing but trouble.
00:56:58And then he decided to tell me about everything he did to you and your mom.
00:57:01And I felt so guilty.
00:57:03It's okay.
00:57:07I was ashamed to approach you.
00:57:09I just didn't know how to face you without making things worse.
00:57:11And I thought the best thing to do was just meet you.
00:57:15Now I know.
00:57:16And then I heard about you being deported and I just couldn't let that happen.
00:57:20Well...
00:57:23I saved you.
00:57:26You saved me.
00:57:27I...
00:57:29I guess we...
00:57:30Just belong together.
00:57:35Ew.
00:57:36Corny.
00:57:39But just...
00:57:42No more secrets.
00:57:44Okay?
00:57:46I promise.
00:57:48No more secrets.
00:57:57No more secrets.
00:58:05You're up early.
00:58:07Yeah.
00:58:08I'm gonna go pick your mom up from the airport.
00:58:11Better soon than later.
00:58:16Gianna's just texted me.
00:58:17She said that I have my first weekly exec meeting this morning.
00:58:22I should postpone it.
00:58:24No.
00:58:24You should definitely go to that.
00:58:26You need to look good in front of your board.
00:58:28Really?
00:58:29Yeah.
00:58:29I'm gonna go pick your mom up from the airport and I'll bring her straight to the office.
00:58:33Thanks.
00:58:34You're the best.
00:58:39Well, that went better than I thought.
00:58:41Don't underestimate yourself, Jess.
00:58:43You did great.
00:58:49Heya, Jess.
00:58:50What are you doing here?
00:58:56What are you doing here?
00:58:57I just wanted to share with you some interesting facts about your dear husband, Daniel Thornton.
00:59:03Gianna, can you wait outside a moment?
00:59:09Okay, I'm telling you now.
00:59:11Whatever bad made-up facts that you've come to tell me about Daniel is not gonna work.
00:59:17Because Daniel already told me everything.
00:59:20Everything?
00:59:21Are you so sure?
00:59:23Yeah.
00:59:24Him and his father came clean about everything.
00:59:26There is nothing more to hide.
00:59:27And did they also tell you Daniel was supposed to marry his childhood sweetheart?
00:59:31What?
00:59:32Ashley Wimbledon.
00:59:34Heiress to the famous Wimbledon family.
00:59:36Ring any bells?
00:59:38Ashley.
00:59:42Ashley.
00:59:44Who is Ashley?
00:59:46I heard you guys talking about her earlier.
00:59:48Oh, she's just an old childhood friend.
00:59:53They grew up and went to law school together.
00:59:56And she had Daniel's first kiss.
01:00:02He did mention Ashley.
01:00:07He did?
01:00:08Yeah, but he's not gonna marry her.
01:00:11I remember that conversation.
01:00:16Daniel's picking my mother up from the airport himself.
01:00:19I'll be seeing her soon.
01:00:20What are you laughing about?
01:00:28Daniel wants to bring her back, babe.
01:00:31You're not gonna see her.
01:00:36After years of separation with your mother,
01:00:39Daniel didn't let you go along with him to meet with her?
01:00:42And what kind of a husband does that?
01:00:44I had an early meeting this morning and Daniel didn't want me to worry.
01:00:48So easily manipulated, Jess.
01:00:52Just like old times.
01:00:54Yeah, well, I don't believe a word you say.
01:00:59Daniel isn't gonna bring her back.
01:01:01Care to find out together?
01:01:11Are you sure everything is taken care of?
01:01:13Yes, you're free to live in this country.
01:01:16Clara, I also want to apologize for everything you went through years ago.
01:01:20I'm deeply sorry.
01:01:22Well, he did bring me back here.
01:01:24Right now, I just want to see my daughter.
01:01:26Well, go to her.
01:01:28Not so fast, Danny boy.
01:01:33You're too late, Lisa.
01:01:35Clara's here to claim Robert's inheritance back.
01:01:37Oh, I don't think so.
01:01:39Agents do your thing.
01:01:40Wait.
01:01:41What?
01:01:41This is a mistake.
01:01:42No.
01:01:43Clara's got past customs.
01:01:45She can stay.
01:01:46Sweetheart, you really think those little documents can stop this?
01:01:50I don't think so.
01:01:51Back off, Lisa.
01:01:52Watch it, pretty boy.
01:01:53Jess.
01:01:54Jess!
01:01:54Mom!
01:01:55Mom!
01:01:56What are you doing?
01:01:57Where are they taking my mother?
01:01:59Mom, I will bring her back.
01:02:00I promise.
01:02:01Just stay strong.
01:02:02Sis, it looks like you've been screwed by the Thorntons again.
01:02:05Adrienne, you sabotaged this.
01:02:08You'll pay for this.
01:02:09See, babe?
01:02:10I told you he's not bringing her back.
01:02:13You said everything was taken care of.
01:02:15Jess, it's not me.
01:02:16It's them.
01:02:17You're lying, Daniel.
01:02:18Why don't you ask him about that thing we talked about, Jess?
01:02:24Jess.
01:02:24He said that you were gonna marry Ashley.
01:02:27Okay, so it's true.
01:02:28Jess, can we just talk about this?
01:02:31No.
01:02:32No, no, no, no, no.
01:02:33Thing is, Daniel, you promised me no more secrets.
01:02:36I can't trust you anymore.
01:02:38Jess!
01:02:39Can you just...
01:02:41Looks like you lost, Daniel.
01:02:42You're never getting her back.
01:03:05Oh, thank God you're alive.
01:03:10Oh, thank God you're alive.
01:03:34Ted, what's the problem with Clara?
01:03:35Her paperwork was for us.
01:03:37You're right, boss.
01:03:38I checked with customers in the USCIS,
01:03:41and they both confirmed that she legally entered the country.
01:03:44That's good.
01:03:45That's good, boss.
01:03:49Agents, do your thing.
01:03:50Wait.
01:03:51What?
01:03:52This is a mistake.
01:03:52No.
01:03:55Jess.
01:03:55Jess, baby!
01:03:57Mom!
01:04:00The ICE agents weren't real.
01:04:02They were hired by Adrian and Lisa to kidnap Clara.
01:04:05Hold on a sec.
01:04:08You're right, boss.
01:04:10We found out those people want her.
01:04:12What should we do?
01:04:13I need to find out where they took them.
01:04:15Use all our contacts.
01:04:17I'm not gonna let them get away with this.
01:04:19On it, boss.
01:04:28Well, well, well, Clara.
01:04:30I bet you didn't expect to see me again, did you?
01:04:34We finally have what it takes to get it all back?
01:04:37Don't look at me like that.
01:04:38You disgust me.
01:04:45Jess, we need to talk.
01:04:47I don't want to talk to you.
01:04:48It's about your mom.
01:04:49I think she was kidnapped by Adrian and Lisa's people.
01:04:52The ICE agents weren't real.
01:04:55What are you talking about?
01:04:57I spoke to Ted.
01:04:58He told me that Clara legally came into the country.
01:05:01It was a setup.
01:05:03Do you actually expect me to believe that?
01:05:05After all the lies?
01:05:07You're so full of shit, Daniel!
01:05:16Hello, bastard child.
01:05:18Yes, we have your mother.
01:05:20And if you ever want to see her again,
01:05:22follow the directions to the address that we just sent you.
01:05:24And don't bring anyone.
01:05:26Especially Daniel.
01:05:31Let me come with you.
01:05:32No, they want me alone.
01:05:33I don't want to restrict-
01:05:34Jess?
01:05:34Don't follow me.
01:05:35I will not let you do this alone.
01:05:44Mom?
01:05:45Bastard child, over here.
01:05:47You let her go.
01:05:48This has gone on far enough.
01:05:50Not so fast, sis.
01:05:53This is only the beginning.
01:05:58You sign this, we let her go.
01:06:03And what is it?
01:06:04An agreement signing everything over to us.
01:06:07The house.
01:06:09Company.
01:06:10Everything.
01:06:19It's signed?
01:06:21No, let her go.
01:06:23God, you are so naive, sis.
01:06:26What more do you want?
01:06:29Get down on your knees and show that you know your place.
01:06:34Wait.
01:06:38That's better.
01:06:44Now bark like a dog.
01:06:51Come on.
01:07:04That's enough, Kristen.
01:07:10We're getting her up here, Monk.
01:07:17Let's get her out of here.
01:07:19Come on, let's go.
01:07:20Oh, my God, Daniel!
01:07:21Oh, my God, Monk.
01:07:27We need to finish this.
01:07:28Mom, we gotta go.
01:07:29Come on.
01:07:31Daniel!
01:07:34Please.
01:07:37Jess.
01:07:39No, don't.
01:07:40Don't try and talk.
01:07:41The police, they're on their way.
01:07:43Jess.
01:07:44I'm so sorry.
01:07:45Why are you apologizing?
01:07:47Just don't move.
01:07:59The doctor said it was nothing serious, so he'll be out of here soon.
01:08:03Jess, I just want to apologize.
01:08:06I am so sorry.
01:08:08Daniel, what are you apologizing for?
01:08:11You saved my mom.
01:08:12You saved us.
01:08:15Hello again, Mr. Thornton.
01:08:18Officer, you're here.
01:08:20Yes.
01:08:21You promised me last week we'd get that interview done.
01:08:25Officer, my husband is injured.
01:08:28He's literally lying in bed.
01:08:31Well, that doesn't change the requirements.
01:08:33Jess, it's okay.
01:08:36We can do the interview.
01:08:41We can do the interview.
01:08:45Are you insane?
01:08:46We haven't rehearsed this.
01:08:49Jess, when you see we've been rehearsing this whole Christmas,
01:08:53there's no better time to do this.
01:08:55You're right.
01:08:59We're ready, officer.
01:09:01Let's start with the question I asked you last week.
01:09:04When did you two first meet?
01:09:06Five years and four months ago.
01:09:08I don't understand.
01:09:10Last time you said it was six months ago,
01:09:13when the other one said it was eight months ago.
01:09:14We lied, officer.
01:09:17But it was five years ago.
01:09:19At a pool party.
01:09:21And we had our first kiss when we first met.
01:09:26It sounds pretty far-fetched.
01:09:29But for some reason, I want to give you two the benefit of the doubt.
01:09:36It sounds pretty far-fetched.
01:09:39But for some reason, I want to give you two the benefit of the doubt.
01:09:44Daniel risked his life to save me and my mother.
01:09:47There's nothing more that he needs to do to prove his love for me.
01:09:51One last question.
01:09:53How frequently have you two spent the night together in the past week?
01:09:58How frequently have you two spent the night together in the past week?
01:10:02Relax.
01:10:04I can tell it's been at least three times.
01:10:07Right, well, that's my interview done.
01:10:09You two are quite the couple.
01:10:12Thank you, officer.
01:10:15Daniel!
01:10:16She's coming!
01:10:17Who's coming?
01:10:24Your fiancé.
01:10:26That's who.
01:10:28Ashley.
01:10:30I guess I'm not done yet.
01:10:32You betrayed my family's trust, Daniel.
01:10:35Ashley, please.
01:10:38Can't we talk about this?
01:10:39So you're Jessica Miller, huh?
01:10:42Adrian's told me all about you.
01:10:45I don't know what Adrian told you, but it's not what you think.
01:10:50Daniel was supposed to marry me.
01:10:52I'm not sure if he's going to do it.
01:10:54I'm not sure if he's going to do it.
01:10:56Daniel was supposed to marry me.
01:10:59And then you just waltzed in and ruined everything.
01:11:02Ashley, our engagement was long over before Jessica came into the picture.
01:11:10Oh, I see.
01:11:12You think this is over.
01:11:15I'm the heiress of the Wimbledon family.
01:11:19The Thornton name is as good as ruined.
01:11:24You can't do that, Ashley.
01:11:26I can.
01:11:29Watch me.
01:11:35You're not the only heiress here.
01:11:40I own Miller Empire.
01:11:44And if you come for the Thorntons,
01:11:47the Miller Empire is going to come for you so hard.
01:11:53You've got guts, Jessica.
01:11:56I like you.
01:12:00I gotta tell you, I didn't expect that.
01:12:03This is so much better than watching TV.
01:12:05Glad to see you've replaced me with someone with a little fire, Daniel.
01:12:14I always knew Daniel didn't love me,
01:12:16but he was too afraid of his father.
01:12:19But I guess I'm happy that he's found someone who wants the same things as him.
01:12:28So, that's it?
01:12:33That's it.
01:12:37Enjoy your happy ending, darling.
01:12:43Andrea?
01:12:44Darling?
01:12:48Andrea?
01:12:49Bring the car around.
01:12:53Did that actually just happen?
01:12:55Yeah.
01:12:56Wow.
01:12:58You two really don't let anyone or anything get in the way of true love.
01:13:03I'll see you later.
01:13:07This is all your fault, Mom.
01:13:09If you wouldn't have been so reckless, then maybe we wouldn't be in this mess.
01:13:11Don't put all the blame on me.
01:13:13You're just as much a part of this as I am.
01:13:15Where is Adrian?
01:13:16He should be here by now.
01:13:19Miss me?
01:13:20Where have you been?
01:13:21Just tying up a few loose ends.
01:13:23Don't worry about it.
01:13:25Everything's going according to plan.
01:13:27Plan?
01:13:28What plan?
01:13:28Everything's falling apart.
01:13:41What did you do, Adrian?
01:13:43Well, me myself, I've done nothing illegal.
01:13:46You two on the other hand, that's a different story.
01:13:50You set us up!
01:13:51I'm just ensuring my own safety.
01:13:54After all, I kept my hands clean.
01:14:02Ow!
01:14:03You're not gonna get away with this, asshole!
01:14:06I already have.
01:14:14I remember when this place was filled with warmth and laughter.
01:14:17Used to be a real family home back then.
01:14:21Then things just went south.
01:14:23Things will be fine again, Mom.
01:14:25I promise.
01:14:26We'll turn this into a good family house.
01:14:29No more hatred.
01:14:31No more backstabbing.
01:14:32I missed you every single day, Jess.
01:14:34I'm so sorry for everything both of us had to go through.
01:14:37I'm sorry too.
01:14:41Jessica?
01:14:43Clara?
01:14:45I am so sorry for everything that I've done to you both.
01:14:49I was wrong.
01:14:51And I know I can never fully make up for it, but I want to try.
01:14:56James, you kept us apart for so many years.
01:14:59It's gonna be hard to forgive and forget.
01:15:01I know, Clara.
01:15:06Jess, are you all right?
01:15:08Yeah, I know, I'm fine.
01:15:13You know, I just feel nauseous, that's all.
01:15:18Have you been getting any other symptoms, like dizziness or fatigue?
01:15:24Yeah, but I just thought that was from all the stress.
01:15:30Sweetheart, you're pregnant.
01:15:33Really?
01:15:34You're showing all the signs, Jess.
01:15:38We're gonna have a baby!
01:15:41Wait, that means I'm gonna be a grandpa!
01:15:46Yeah!
01:15:55Daniel, there's something you need to do.
01:16:02What's this?
01:16:03This is a ring your grandma left.
01:16:05And I think this is the perfect time to use it.
01:16:10Go get it.
01:16:11I'm gonna do this?
01:16:12Yeah, go.
01:16:23Jess?
01:16:24Jess!
01:16:28Jess, I know we've only ever spent time together a week during Christmas,
01:16:31and we've been through so much in that time.
01:16:35And over the past five years, all I've wanted to do was be with you.
01:16:40And I've had to endure the pain of that not being possible.
01:16:43I want to spend every waking moment in time with you.
01:16:46What I'm trying to say is, Jess,
01:16:52will you marry me?
01:16:56For real this time.
01:16:58Yes, Daniel, yes, I will marry you!
01:17:01Yes!
01:17:01Really?
01:17:02Yes!
01:17:06Oh!
01:17:19What? 18,000 yuan of dowries?
01:17:22Vani, you have a paralyzed mom and a lousy gambling dad to your family.
01:17:26I'm a good match way out of your league.
01:17:28You should send me a car as dowries instead of asking me for dowries.
01:17:31But I earn more than you.
01:17:33And I paid the down payment of the matrimonial house.
01:17:35Your parents' names are on the house property certificate.
01:17:38And now you ask me for a car?
01:17:40I have no money!
01:17:46Why don't you ask your family for the money?
01:17:48If they don't give, take it as a loan.
01:17:51We can pay them back after we get married.
01:17:55Vani, I really want to marry you.
01:17:58Can't you just do more for our future life?
01:18:01Huh?
01:18:03Chad, don't get me wrong.
01:18:05I'm here to ask for dowries, not give out.
01:18:08Vani, you'd better take the offer.
01:18:10It is you eager to marry out, saying your mom is seriously ill.
01:18:13And you need a marriage to relieve her worries.
01:18:15Look at you, the least eligible woman.
01:18:17I pity you so that I offer to marry you.
01:18:18If you don't buy me a car, the marriage is off the table.
01:18:21Right.
01:18:22I'm desperate to get married, but not desperate enough to marry you.
01:18:25You!
01:18:28If I won't marry you, who would like to be with you?
01:18:33Hey dude, are you single?
01:18:39Do you mind having a wife?
01:18:40Get on board and go register now.
01:18:41I'd like to give it a shot.
01:18:43Anyhow, I don't have a wife.
01:18:46Do you see that?
01:18:47He wanna marry me.
01:18:49Scumbag.
01:18:59I'm married?
01:19:01Pack your things tonight.
01:19:03And move to my, our home.
01:19:06Where?
01:19:08So we are living together?
01:19:10What are you thinking about?
01:19:12We're married.
01:19:12It's natural for us to live together.
01:19:16Well, I'm John, an office worker.
01:19:20I'm usually busy at work.
01:19:21When you move in, you don't need to take care of me.
01:19:23I can support you with my salary.
01:19:25I have to work now.
01:19:26See you then.
01:19:27I'll pick you up after work.
01:19:28I see.
01:19:29We are working slaves.
01:19:30It's not easy to make a living.
01:19:31Just go back to work.
01:19:33How do you go home?
01:19:34Why not take a taxi?
01:19:35I'll pay for it.
01:19:35There are shared bikes at the gate.
01:19:37I can ride one.
01:19:38Working slave?
01:19:39My grandma chose her to be my wife.
01:19:41She seems to be interesting for now.
01:19:43I fainted last time.
01:19:45It's her saved me.
01:19:46After I left the hospital, she knew I lived alone.
01:19:49And made many calls to cheer me up.
01:19:52John, she's the kindest girl I've ever met.
01:19:55You'll love her when you see her.
01:19:57Grandma, we are in a new era.
01:19:59Why do you wanna arrange marriage for me?
01:20:00What?
01:20:01I got her schedule yesterday.
01:20:03I want you to meet her.
01:20:04If you think she's a good girl, you can develop your relationship after marriage.
01:20:09Hear me out.
01:20:10If you don't give it a shot, you'll see my scenery casket when you get back.
01:20:15Boss, we've got 1,000 acre land of suburb of eastern China.
01:20:19Construction will be started in the middle of this month.
01:20:21Central bank is asking us for a loan.
01:20:25Yes.
01:20:26Well.
01:20:32That's all for today.
01:20:34I'm going to pick up my wife home.
01:20:36Pick up your wife?
01:20:37What? Our boss is married?
01:20:42What gift should I give to a girl on our first date?
01:20:45Your first date?
01:20:45A lightning marriage?
01:20:51I think you are suitable for our project in Africa.
01:20:53Do you think so?
01:20:54Sorry, boss.
01:20:55I won't do it again.
01:20:56Just answer my question.
01:20:57No more bullshit.
01:20:59I think if you're not familiar with each other, it's better to send flowers.
01:21:04Half an hour.
01:21:04In just half an hour, I'll put the imported roses to the given location.
01:21:09Good.
01:21:11From now on, you drive my car and I'll drive yours.
01:21:18What?
01:21:21What's wrong with Mr. Liu?
01:21:23He want to drive my old Mercedes?
01:21:27Instead of his fancy Phantom?
01:21:34Hey!
01:21:35Hey, what are you doing?
01:21:38Good dogs don't get underfoot.
01:21:40Hey, you!
01:21:41Get out of my way!
01:21:42Oops.
