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.
00:00:22We're rich!
00:00:27Let me hold on to 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, it'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. Yes, ma'am. 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? Choose 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 Ann Kristen Miller. You thought you could get
00:01:47rich overnight? Keep dreaming. Seriously? Bon voyage, have sis. The boss is urgent. They're
00:02:00about to deport a woman named Jessica Miller. Jessica Miller? It's her.
00:02:12Oh, 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. Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait. Jessica? Do I know you?
00:02:32She doesn't remember me. I'm Daniel. You're a lawyer. Just pretend we know each other.
00:02:41If I can get you out of here. We've spoken to the judge, and Miss Miller should be released
00:02:46immediately. We can't deport her. She is about to marry a US citizen. Who's the lucky guy?
00:02:56I am. I'll marry her. A fake marriage won't save her. Our marriage is real. Yeah, 100
00:03:03percent real. Prove it then. That's it? You call that a kiss? Need more proof, officer?
00:03:33Look, this guy is a lawyer to some of the most important families in town. And if you
00:03:39don't let her go, then he'll make sure you lose your damn job. Fine, you can have her.
00:03:44Thank you, officer. Guys, I think we're good. It's not over. We'll be checking your marital
00:03:57status and conducting interviews. And there are a few very specific requirements you should
00:04:03follow. Make sure you two are staying in the same house and sleeping in the same bed. Or
00:04:07it's game over. Well, thank you for the rescue. Oh, it's no problem. But, um, Daniel, would
00:04:24you, would you marry me? Oh, Jessica, I've waited for this moment for five years. I mean
00:04:31it would only be a contract marriage. But once I get my green card, I'll inherit my
00:04:38father's business empire and I'll share half of it with you. Even your misunderstanding
00:04:44looks so cute. I only want you, Jessica. But before I get my green card, you're going to
00:04:51have to help me deal with my stepsister and her mom. They're trying to get rid of me and
00:04:56they've already stolen my fortune and they made my mother disappear. Deal. What? That's
00:05:06it? This literally stands for loyalties and new beginnings. Something that I want with
00:05:14you. Now I know it's rushed, but I promise you I will buy you a proper ring soon.
00:05:27Now on, let's make every Christmas our own. Fill it with memories.
00:05:48You can't do this. Jess, it's okay. Just wait here. I'll handle it.
00:05:57What? Why are you helping that girl? Kristen Miller is our ally and she wants her the hell
00:06:05out of this picture. It's too late, dad. We already got married. Are you insane? Did you
00:06:11forget you're supposed to marry Ashley? Daniel Thornton. My 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.
00:06:28Wait, I recognize that face from the newspaper. That was James Thornton from the Thornton
00:06:35family, the family responsible for my mother's disappearance.
00:06:43Stop telling me what I can and cannot do. She saved my life. I owe it to her. Roll the
00:06:47hell up, Daniel. You need to remember your position as the heir to our family and you
00:06:52need to divorce that girl. Now I'm doing this to clean your mess up. Just leave us alone.
00:07:07Sorry about that. Is your name Daniel Thornton? Yeah.
00:07:14The Thornton family are responsible for the disappearance of my mother. I have been searching
00:07:20for her my entire life. Jess, I can explain. I'm not marrying Thornton. Wait, wait, wait,
00:07:28Jess, Jess. I'm not who you think I am. I have nothing to do with that family. Oh, really?
00:07:33Because your name is right here on the marriage certificate. I share the last name as Thornton
00:07:39and I am not one of them. Thornton is a common name, just an ordinary guy. Really? Well, I
00:07:44don't believe you. I saw you talking to James Thornton. Is he your father?
00:07:52Is he your father? No, he's not my father. He was threatening to drive you out of the
00:07:56country and I was not going to have anything to do with it. Jess, I'm on your side. You're
00:08:02not one of them. I'm sorry. It's okay. Don't worry about it.
00:08:14Well, you have a nice apartment. Welcome. Is that your Labrador? It looks exactly like
00:08:22mine. I got mine as a Christmas present when I was nine. No way. I got mine as a Christmas
00:08:27present when I was nine. That's crazy. Jess, we're going to have to sleep in the same room
00:08:35together just in case immigration ambush us. Yeah, but are you sure you're okay sleeping
00:08:40on the carpet? I mean, you've done so much for me already and I just... Jess, please,
00:08:45I insist. We made a deal, remember? I also want to thank you for giving me the chance
00:08:52to be rich. It's okay, Daniel.
00:09:23Jess, are you spying on me? No. No, no, no, no. I was just passing by and just... Do you
00:09:35need anything? I was joking. Yeah, could you pass me the towel? It's just hanging up next
00:09:43to the door. Yeah, sure, sure.
00:10:00Oh my God. What? I just got fired. What?
00:10:05Wait, Jess, let me go with you.
00:10:09What? Yeah.
00:10:22Sam, please, don't fire me. I'm sorry, Jess, but your immigration issue put us in a tough spot.
00:10:30I worked for this company for years. I'm sorry, Jess. There's nothing I can do. Sorry.
00:10:44Look who's here. Someone who just got fired. This suits you.
00:10:53It was you. I should have known you were behind this. I'm not going to let you stay here and
00:10:59ruin things. I'm going to take away everything you have, sister.
00:11:07You just made a big mistake, sir. Who are you? My name is Daniel Thornton, son of James Thornton,
00:11:14the chairman of Thornton Enterprise. Oh, Mr. Thornton. Welcome. What brings you here?
00:11:24Well, I have some good news for you. Jessica Miller, she's just closed a billion dollar deal.
00:11:33Take a look.
00:11:44Oh my God.
00:11:45Oh my God.
00:11:50It's real.
00:11:52Absolutely. With her hard work and dedication, she's made this possible.
00:11:57It's a real shame you're going to lose such a valuable employee.
00:12:01Oh, Mr. Thornton, I have made a huge mistake. Jessica will stay.
00:12:09Good. And make sure nobody knows we had this conversation.
00:12:19Jessica, you should have told me.
00:12:26What are you talking about, Sam? Jessica, you secured a huge deal for the company.
00:12:32Thank you. Did you not just fire her?
00:12:34I changed my mind. Jessica's staying. Actually, she's being promoted to sales manager.
00:12:43Can't afford to lose someone as valuable as like her.
00:12:46Great. Thanks, Sam.
00:12:50This is not over.
00:12:56I can't believe it. Jessica kept her job and she gets promoted.
00:12:59Don't worry, Lisa. I just spoke with James Thornton and he had the lawyer change the will in our favor.
00:13:06Jessica will get nothing.
00:13:08Oh my God. That's fantastic.
00:13:22No way.
00:13:24No way.
00:13:31Jessica, how's work? Did you get your job back?
00:13:36Daniel, I need a lawyer.
00:13:44Wow. Look who decided to show up.
00:13:48Too bad for you, Jess. Turns out Daddy's will left you nothing.
00:13:51I 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. You showed me the will. And I signed the documents.
00:14:07I'm sorry, Jessica. I've just discovered a revised will that supports Kristen and Lisa's claims.
00:14:16Mr. Thornton.
00:14:18Who is this?
00:14:19He's my lawyer. And a damn good one.
00:14:22Oh. You know, Jess, I didn't realize you had enough money to pay for a fancy little lawyer. You sleep with him?
00:14:30Patrick, can I have a word with you outside?
00:14:34Talk all you want. It won't change anything.
00:14:37All right, Patrick. I'm going to keep this short and sweet.
00:14:40I know you changed the will to favor Kristen and Lisa.
00:14:43I know what you're talking about, Mr. Thornton. The revised will's solid.
00:14:48Ted found an email exchange with my father. Here, take a look.
00:14:53You've been caught, Patrick. In honor of the will, I'll report you to the Bar Association.
00:14:57You'll lose your license and any chance of practicing law or gain.
00:15:00That goes against your father's wishes. You don't understand the position you put me in.
00:15:04I'll deal with my father. Don't you worry about that.
00:15:07You just worry about doing the right thing.
00:15:14Um, this revised will's a fake.
00:15:17It's a fake?
00:15:19It's a fake.
00:15:21It's a fake?
00:15:23It's a fake.
00:15:24Um, this revised will's a fake. The original will's stamped.
00:15:28What the hell are you doing?
00:15:30He's doing the right thing.
00:15:33Jessica, you've gotten your inheritance back. Congratulations.
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. I'll deal with James Thornton.
00:15:52Who the hell do you think you are? James Thornton is one of the most powerful men in this town.
00:15:59I sure can. Isn't that right, Patrick?
00:16:02Yes. The original will stands.
00:16:05No, you are crazy.
00:16:07No, I'm not. According 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. Just like your mother.
00:16:20I will not allow violence.
00:16:23I didn't come here to argue over a house and assets. I came here to be recognized as an actual member of this family.
00:16:33Yeah, well it's easy for you to say you're getting everything.
00:16:35You don't know how lucky you are, Lisa. You grew up with a father who loved you.
00:16:40I had none.
00:16:42And 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. And I would rather give it away to a charity than to see the two of you living in it.
00:17:01You two should pack your things up. You have one week to leave this house.
00:17:05What the hell were you thinking? Sabotaging my plan?
00:17:09I was just doing the right thing.
00:17:11The right thing? Going against me?
00:17:14Kristen Miller has got no power anymore. Her game is over.
00:17:18I'm sure you didn't come all this way just to argue with me. So what do you want?
00:17:24I just want Jessica to get her mom back.
00:17:26Interesting.
00:17:30What's in it for me?
00:17:32Once Jessica gets her mom back, I'll do whatever you want.
00:17:36Whatever I want?
00:17:38Like what exactly?
00:17:40I'll marry Ashley.
00:17:42You'll marry Ashley?
00:17:45Yeah.
00:17:47You'll marry Ashley?
00:17:49Yeah.
00:17:50I'll marry Ashley.
00:17:53You'll marry Ashley?
00:17:55Yeah.
00:17:57You're willing to do that?
00:17:59Yeah. I am.
00:18:01But only if she's reunited with her mother.
00:18:05Okay. Deal.
00:18:08I'll make the arrangements.
00:18:10So you're really in love with this one, huh?
00:18:13Yeah. I am.
00:18:16Okay, kid. I sure hope she's worth it.
00:18:20She is.
00:18:25What's wrong?
00:18:27We have a guest.
00:18:30Mr. Thornton. Good to see you again. Interview time.
00:18:36Great.
00:18:39When did you two meet?
00:18:41We met at a friend's party two years ago.
00:18:44What do you say, Jessica?
00:18:47Oh, yeah. Yeah.
00:18:50Interesting.
00:18:52And when did you decide to get married?
00:18:55Eight months ago.
00:18:57Six months or eight months? Which one is it?
00:19:00Yeah. Eight months ago. Sorry, I just...
00:19:02Sorry, I'm always getting mixed up.
00:19:05Sure. Easy mistake to make.
00:19:08And what's your anniversary date?
00:19:11March 15th.
00:19:13March 15th?
00:19:15All right. Thank you.
00:19:18Uh, that's it?
00:19:21Yes, Mr. Thornton. I have everything I need.
00:19:24I'll report back to the judges.
00:19:28Oh, wait. This.
00:19:33How did we do in there?
00:19:37It was pretty bad.
00:19:40Look, I'm the son of James Thornton.
00:19:45I know who you are.
00:19:48Okay.
00:19:51You want to bribe me?
00:19:53Yes.
00:19:55I can't be bribed.
00:19:57Here's one million dollars.
00:20:02Two million dollars.
00:20:04Right.
00:20:09Three million dollars.
00:20:12It's tempting, but like I said, you can't bribe me.
00:20:14Please. Can you just give us one more week to prepare?
00:20:18I really want to be with this woman.
00:20:21She means the world to me. She saved my life.
00:20:24I'm not going to take your money, but I'll give you one week. Make it count.
00:20:30Next time, I want to see some genuine affection between you two.
00:20:33If anything seems a bit off, your game's up.
00:20:35Of course.
00:20:37And one more thing. I can tell you two haven't had sex yet.
00:20:41I'm that good, Mr. Daniel. Don't try and fool me.
00:20:50She gave us another chance.
00:20:52Oh, my God.
00:20:54We have one week to get our story straight.
00:20:56Thank you, Daniel. You've been very, very helpful today.
00:21:19Now, I wanted to make our first Christmas special, so I did a little digging and I found this.
00:21:26This tree is amazing.
00:21:34What happened?
00:21:37Let me have a look.
00:21:41Okay.
00:21:42Um, I have a festive gift for you two.
00:22:12Wow. Jess, you look gorgeous.
00:22:27And then I told him that's not how you negotiate.
00:22:31You did it.
00:22:42You did it.
00:23:13This could be wrong.
00:23:16Maybe.
00:23:18Maybe not.
00:23:34And that is how you negotiate.
00:23:39You're not like that.
00:23:43No.
00:23:55Stop.
00:23:57Hold on. I've got this.
00:24:12I've got this.
00:24:43You know, the watch looks familiar.
00:24:59No, I've seen this before.
00:25:01In a magazine.
00:25:03It looks like one of those, um, Fanta family watches.
00:25:11Is it real?
00:25:13Uh, no. It's fake.
00:25:19You wear a fake watch?
00:25:21Yeah.
00:25:32I'm so happy, Jess.
00:25:34There's also something I need to tell you about your mom.
00:25:43Yes.
00:25:54Oh my God.
00:25:56Did I just sleep with Daniel last night?
00:25:59I told him it would only be one night.
00:26:01I told him it would only be a contract marriage.
00:26:13Morning.
00:26:14This is the most beautiful morning that I've ever had.
00:26:17Daniel, I'm so sorry about last night.
00:26:22It wasn't supposed to happen and I promise it will never happen again.
00:26:29She didn't mean it.
00:26:31Oh, Jessica.
00:26:32Last night was amazing.
00:26:37Yeah, Jess.
00:26:39I get it.
00:26:42It was a one-time thing.
00:26:45Yeah, just like, just a one-time thing.
00:26:50Anyway, it's your big day today.
00:26:54You're the new CEO of the Miller Empire.
00:26:56Miller Empire.
00:26:58Thank you for the reminder.
00:27:03Now that you mention it, I'm really scared.
00:27:06Oh, no, Jess. I didn't mean it like that.
00:27:11What I was meant to say is...
00:27:14I'm gonna help you.
00:27:21I don't know what to do, Mother.
00:27:22That bitch is kicking us out.
00:27:23We still have a chance.
00:27:25That bastard child needs a unanimous vote from the board to be chosen as the next CEO.
00:27:31So we just need a board member to back us up.
00:27:34I will call Richard.
00:27:35Everyone respects Richard's vote.
00:27:37And I will make sure he doesn't vote for her.
00:27:40And I'll dig up all the dirt I can find on her.
00:27:43You go, girl.
00:27:44You go, girl.
00:27:55These clothes are beautiful.
00:27:58But, uh, very expensive.
00:28:02Like this one.
00:28:03That is $9,000.
00:28:07Jess, don't worry about it.
00:28:10It's on me.
00:28:11Look at it as, uh, my first gift to my wife.
00:28:14No, Daniel, I can't let you pay for this.
00:28:17Look, Jess, you're gonna be a CEO, which means you've gotta look the part.
00:28:22Trust me. It's an investment.
00:28:26Mr. Thornton, welcome back. How can I assist you today?
00:28:29You come here a lot?
00:28:31Uh, no.
00:28:32Well, of course. Mr. Thornton owns this store.
00:28:35Uh, Jess, why don't you try this one on?
00:28:39You'll look great in it.
00:28:42Well, Jess, you look amazing.
00:28:48You think so?
00:28:49Yeah.
00:28:51This is exactly what a CEO would wear.
00:28:53Absolutely. Great choice.
00:28:56We'll take this one.
00:28:58Something on your mind?
00:29:01Well, it's probably nothing, but it's just that clerk seemed very fond of you.
00:29:06Oh, uh, being friendly is a part of my job.
00:29:11Okay.
00:29:18So that's how you got your lawyer, huh?
00:29:22Now that you mention it, maybe she was a little friendly.
00:29:26But we got a discount.
00:29:29Show off.
00:29:38What a slut.
00:29:42Trust me, Jess. You can do this.
00:29:45Yeah, but what if they don't accept me?
00:29:47They will. Trust me. Just speak from the heart and show your true self.
00:29:53Look at you two little lovebirds.
00:29:57Pathetic.
00:30:01Ted, can we talk about this later?
00:30:03Okay.
00:30:06You go in. I'll meet you in there soon, okay?
00:30:12Okay.
00:30:15Good luck in there, sis.
00:30:18You're gonna need it.
00:30:20You don't have the votes.
00:30:24I know my background doesn't seem very typical of a CEO,
00:30:28but I built myself from the bottom up here.
00:30:31Miller Corporation is a leader in tech and services,
00:30:37reaching industries from healthcare to energy.
00:30:40We have over 10,000 employees worldwide
00:30:45who have worked hard to build this company from the ground up.
00:30:49And I was one of them. I know them.
00:30:52And I believe that I can help lead this company to become everyone's company.
00:30:58Let's proceed to the vote.
00:31:00All in favor?
00:31:01Vote.
00:31:05Robert lost his damn mind.
00:31:07He picked his secret child to be the CEO,
00:31:10only because of his guilty conscience.
00:31:13Richard, if I may...
00:31:14I'm not done talking.
00:31:16You can't lead us.
00:31:18And you're not getting my vote.
00:31:21Richard, if I may speak...
00:31:22Go ahead.
00:31:24But I won't change my mind.
00:31:26Sorry for interrupting, everyone.
00:31:27But I have something important to share with you all today.
00:31:30Who the hell are you?
00:31:31Well, Richard, I'm the person who's going to expose you.
00:31:35What did you just say?
00:31:37How do I say this?
00:31:39Uh, you're a sex pervert.
00:31:42What?
00:31:45You see, everyone, this file contains multiple sexual harassment lawsuits
00:31:51against Richard over the past 30 years.
00:31:55Some of them also have ongoing lawsuits.
00:31:58They're all just allegations, and they've all been settled.
00:32:01I'm innocent.
00:32:02We've also got in contact with some of the victims,
00:32:04and they're willing to come forward and testify.
00:32:06Actually, I have not finished yet.
00:32:09You're also stealing money from the company.
00:32:12And we have the financial records to prove it.
00:32:15The evidence is clear.
00:32:17He's guilty.
00:32:20Okay, then.
00:32:21Let's all vote for Richard Donnell's immediate suspension.
00:32:25All in favor?
00:32:31We have 15 votes.
00:32:34The board has decided.
00:32:35Richard Donnell is officially removed from his position.
00:32:38We have 15 votes.
00:32:40The board has decided.
00:32:41Richard Donnell is officially removed from his position.
00:32:45Security, escort him out immediately.
00:32:48I know my way.
00:32:54And all in favor of appointing Jessica Miller as the new CEO?
00:33:15I'm sorry I was late.
00:33:16I had to make sure I had enough evidence to mail.
00:33:18No, don't be sorry, Daniel.
00:33:19That was so worth the wait.
00:33:21Good.
00:33:24This is not over.
00:33:26You'll see.
00:33:27How's packing going, Lisa?
00:33:28You're about to be evicted soon.
00:33:31Bye-bye.
00:33:32Bye-bye.
00:33:37She won again, that bitch.
00:33:39I know, it's so unfair.
00:33:41Do we have a guest?
00:33:42Lisa, honey.
00:33:44I've been trying to reach you.
00:33:46Why haven't you returned my calls?
00:33:48I've been busy.
00:33:49Busy.
00:33:50Dealing with Jessica.
00:33:52How did you know?
00:33:53Oh, I know.
00:33:54And I think I know how to help you take it down.
00:33:57Again.
00:33:59No use to me anymore, Adrian.
00:34:00I only needed you to help me get rid of Jessica.
00:34:04To the new CEO of the Miller Empire.
00:34:09Well, I couldn't have done it without you, Danny.
00:34:11I also have another Christmas surprise for you.
00:34:16Who are you calling?
00:34:20Is it?
00:34:21Yes, Jess.
00:34:22It's your mother, Clara.
00:34:24Oh, my God.
00:34:25Mom?
00:34:26Oh, Jessica, you're a grown woman now.
00:34:29The Miller family threatened to kill you, Jess.
00:34:32I had no option but to vanish.
00:34:36Mom, it's okay.
00:34:38You didn't do anything wrong.
00:34:39I'll bring you back into the country, I promise.
00:34:44Daniel, how did you find her?
00:34:46I have a few powerful friends.
00:34:47They did me a favor.
00:34:50But I'll leave you two alone.
00:35:00Two more, please.
00:35:04Daniel.
00:35:06Adrian.
00:35:08Long time no see, buddy.
00:35:10Oh, my God. How long has it been?
00:35:12Ten years.
00:35:13Ten years.
00:35:14Oh, my God.
00:35:16The last time I must have seen you was at law school.
00:35:20Yep.
00:35:21Go Reds.
00:35:23Go Reds.
00:35:25What are you doing here?
00:35:26What are you doing here?
00:35:28Just in town to run some errands.
00:35:30Just thought I'd come here for a quick bite.
00:35:32Nice, man. Nice.
00:35:34I saw your date earlier.
00:35:36She looks pretty.
00:35:37Yeah, my wife.
00:35:39Your wife?
00:35:40Yeah, Jess.
00:35:41You're married?
00:35:42Yes.
00:35:43Yeah, you have to introduce me to her.
00:35:44Come on, let's go say hi.
00:35:46Come and say hello.
00:35:47It's good to see you, buddy.
00:35:48Good to see you too, man.
00:35:50Jess, I wanted you to meet an old friend of mine.
00:35:53Adrian, this is Jess.
00:35:54Jess, this is Adrian.
00:35:55We went to law school together.
00:36:02I don't want to see him.
00:36:06I don't want to see him.
00:36:10You two know each other?
00:36:11Yes, Daniel.
00:36:13I was her first boyfriend.
00:36:18Come on, Jess.
00:36:20Don't you miss me?
00:36:21I don't want to see you anymore.
00:36:24You know you still love me, Jess.
00:36:26No, I don't.
00:36:31I think you should leave, Adrian.
00:36:33Okay, Daniel?
00:36:34Relax.
00:36:35Now.
00:36:41I'm leaving.
00:36:46But she knows she's lying.
00:36:47I know she's lying.
00:36:52Force, Adrian Wesley now represents the Eastside Christian Order.
00:36:56They want to test the will.
00:36:58I should have known.
00:36:59What else?
00:37:01Adrian also introduced me to Jessica.
00:37:03Actually, he's the one who sabotaged Jessica's democratic paperwork.
00:37:08It caused all this trouble.
00:37:13That son of a bitch.
00:37:15We need to win this war.
00:37:17Whatever it takes.
00:37:26Daniel?
00:37:28Sorry.
00:37:29Did I wake you?
00:37:31No, can...
00:37:33Can you join me in bed, please?
00:37:39You sure?
00:37:44I just...
00:37:45I wanted to apologize for earlier.
00:37:48The restaurant.
00:37:52I got a bit carried away.
00:37:54Jess, you don't need to apologize.
00:37:57Adrian's an asshole.
00:37:58He's just trying to do it to get under your skin.
00:38:01I did care for Adrian once.
00:38:04But he just destroyed everything we had.
00:38:08I want you to know that I'm here because of you.
00:38:15And you're the only one who I love.
00:38:20No one else.
00:38:32I love you too, Jess.
00:38:34And I'm not going anywhere.
00:38:46Good morning, husband.
00:38:48Morning, wife.
00:38:51Are you ready for your big day as the new CEO?
00:38:54If only you were with me.
00:39:16You're going to do great today.
00:39:25Jess?
00:39:27Here's your coffee.
00:39:32What's wrong?
00:39:33Oh, it's just, it's this job, it's all so new to me.
00:39:37Okay, calm down.
00:39:39Remember, you're the CEO.
00:39:41Which means, you're the boss.
00:39:43Yeah, but I don't know how to be a boss.
00:39:47Hey, Jess.
00:39:49Look at you, sitting in the big chair now.
00:39:52Oh, Giovanna, I am so happy you're here.
00:39:56Aww.
00:39:58You must be Daniel.
00:40:00Jessica's been talking about you for days.
00:40:04I'm flattered.
00:40:06I really wish you could be here with me, G.
00:40:08It's exhausting.
00:40:10Oh, at least you have a job, Jess.
00:40:11I've been looking for work for the past two months.
00:40:15Jess?
00:40:17Do you like Gianna being here?
00:40:22Of course.
00:40:24We've been besties since forever.
00:40:27Yeah, what kind of question is that?
00:40:29Well, why don't you use your CEO power and hire Gianna?
00:40:35Oh, I don't, I know what you mean.
00:40:38I don't understand.
00:40:39I don't understand.
00:40:41How would you like to come work for me?
00:40:47Of course.
00:40:49Okay then.
00:40:51My first order as a CEO.
00:40:54Gianna, you are hired as my personal assistant.
00:41:00Oh my god, Jess, thank you so much.
00:41:03See, being a boss is easy.
00:41:06You can do whatever you want.
00:41:09Oh my god.
00:41:11What's wrong?
00:41:13The company's stock prices are dropping like crazy.
00:41:16What is happening?
00:41:18This isn't normal.
00:41:20Stocks are getting dumped.
00:41:22Well, well, well.
00:41:25Looks like things aren't going so well.
00:41:27What did you do, Lisa?
00:41:29I asked Richard and some of the other investors to sell their stocks.
00:41:34What did you do?
00:41:35I asked Richard and some of the other investors to sell their stocks.
00:41:39The board members are not going to be happy about the stock prices, Jessica.
00:41:43What do you want?
00:41:45Resign as CEO or I will destroy this company.
00:41:49No way.
00:41:51Okay.
00:41:53Then I will destroy this company.
00:41:55Jessica, the board members are asking to meet with you.
00:41:58They're angry.
00:42:00What are you going to do, Jess?
00:42:03Okay, I'll meet with the board.
00:42:05Wait, Jess.
00:42:07Don't go. Take a seat.
00:42:10What is it?
00:42:12Lisa, are you sure the stock prices are going down?
00:42:16Because to me, they seem to be going up and up.
00:42:20That's impossible. You would need at least a billion dollars.
00:42:24I guess anything's possible these days.
00:42:26I guess anything's possible these days.
00:42:29God damn it!
00:42:31God, she's annoying.
00:42:37You must be my lucky star.
00:42:46Daniel.
00:42:49Gianna.
00:42:51I know who you are, Daniel.
00:42:53You're the son of James Thornton.
00:42:54How did you find out?
00:42:56My identity is meant to be a secret.
00:42:58I used to work for your father.
00:43:00Please don't tell Jess.
00:43:02I'll pay you. How much do you want?
00:43:04I don't want your money. I care for my friend.
00:43:07Actually, your father fired me because I tried to help Jessica.
00:43:11I'm sorry, Gianna.
00:43:13It's okay.
00:43:15I just want to know why.
00:43:17She hates my family.
00:43:19I have to lie to her.
00:43:20She hates your family, but she loves you.
00:43:24I can see that.
00:43:26You really think so?
00:43:28Yes.
00:43:30I love her too.
00:43:32She's the best thing that's ever happened to me.
00:43:36That's good to hear.
00:43:38Please protect her.
00:43:46Daniel.
00:43:50It's my mom.
00:43:52Adrian threatened her.
00:43:57Adrian threatened my mom on the phone.
00:44:00He said he was going to block her from entering the country.
00:44:03What should we do?
00:44:06Jess, I don't want you to worry about it.
00:44:09I'm going to make sure your mom gets here safely.
00:44:21Ted.
00:44:23I need you to make sure Jessica's mom gets here safely.
00:44:26Book her on the first flight out tomorrow.
00:44:28Got it, boss.
00:44:30She'll be here in town the day after tomorrow.
00:44:32Good.
00:44:40Jess has been taken care of.
00:44:42Your mom's going to be here the day after tomorrow.
00:44:45Thank you, Daniel.
00:44:46But I'm...
00:44:48I'm still scared.
00:44:50I just... I need a day off.
00:44:52I love the sound of that.
00:44:54What did you have in mind?
00:44:56I was thinking...
00:45:00I want to buy a house.
00:45:16So...
00:45:19Do you like this place?
00:45:21It's amazing.
00:45:23But, Jess, I appreciate the gesture.
00:45:26But you don't need to buy me a house.
00:45:29No, no. I insist.
00:45:32You've done so much to help me.
00:45:36Besides, we can live together here.
00:45:39Mr. Thornton.
00:45:41Your father is here.
00:45:43Are you meeting him here?
00:45:47Well...
00:45:49I've never met your parents.
00:45:52So...
00:45:54I'm pretty excited to meet an in-law.
00:45:57Oh, is...
00:45:59Is that him?
00:46:01Come on, let's go say hi.
00:46:03Jess, wait.
00:46:05Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.
00:46:07Um...
00:46:09I might not have told my dad about you and our marriage.
00:46:12Why?
00:46:13Uh...
00:46:15Because he has a heart condition.
00:46:18I think it's best you stay here.
00:46:21Okay.
00:46:23I'll just...
00:46:25stay here, then.
00:46:27Good.
00:46:32Dad?
00:46:34Go on.
00:46:36Damn, what the hell?
00:46:38Jessica's here. She can't see her face.
00:46:40Don't take them off.
00:46:41I want to talk to you about Ashley, Daniel.
00:46:47Why hasn't Daniel told his father about me and our wedding?
00:46:51Ashley, really?
00:46:53Not today.
00:46:55And...
00:46:57what is this shirt you're wearing?
00:46:59Your mother insisted I wear it
00:47:01in this charity event in New England.
00:47:03Right.
00:47:05Said it makes me look more grounded.
00:47:08And approachable.
00:47:11And don't go changing our subject.
00:47:13I want to discuss our agreement.
00:47:15I give you Clara,
00:47:17and you marry Ashley.
00:47:23Why does he look so...
00:47:25nervous?
00:47:27Am I not good enough?
00:47:30Do we have to talk about this right now?
00:47:33I held up my end of the bargain, Daniel.
00:47:35I want this deal done now.
00:47:38Actually, Clara isn't safe yet.
00:47:39Lisa Miller might try to be sabotaging everything.
00:47:42This is why you don't mess with the Miller family.
00:47:45You should have left it alone.
00:47:47All I'm asking is just a few more days.
00:47:49Ashley is coming to town in a few days.
00:47:52What?
00:47:54Jess!
00:47:56Jess.
00:48:05Dad, this is Jess.
00:48:07Dad, this is Jess.
00:48:09Jess, this is Dad.
00:48:11You can call him Jimmy.
00:48:13Jimmy?
00:48:15Right.
00:48:17I'm Jimmy, sweetie.
00:48:19It's lovely to meet you, Jimmy.
00:48:21And can I just say,
00:48:23that is a lovely Hawaiian shirt.
00:48:25It really, really suits you.
00:48:27Well, thank you, Jessica.
00:48:29It's one I'm fond of.
00:48:32So, who is Ashley?
00:48:34I heard you guys talking about her earlier.
00:48:37Oh, she's just an old family friend.
00:48:42They grew up and went to law school together.
00:48:45Oh.
00:48:47And she had Daniel's first kiss.
00:48:49Oh.
00:48:51Her wedding is approaching soon,
00:48:53and I'd like Daniel to attend.
00:48:56Dad!
00:48:58I'm reminiscing about the good old days.
00:49:00No, it's fine.
00:49:02Honestly, it's lovely to hear about Daniel's childhood.
00:49:04I'd like to know more about his life.
00:49:06You bastard child!
00:49:12Well, well.
00:49:14What do we have here?
00:49:16You think you can afford this place?
00:49:19You're about to lose this battle
00:49:21and be out on the streets soon.
00:49:24Who's this clown?
00:49:28Looks like he belongs in a circus.
00:49:30How dare you, Kristen!
00:49:32How do you know my name?
00:49:34And don't you dare call me by my first name!
00:49:36That's enough!
00:49:39Don't talk to my father like that.
00:49:44He's your father.
00:49:47How does it feel to be a father of such a loser?
00:49:51Don't talk to my family like that.
00:49:54Your family.
00:49:56Your family suck, Jessica.
00:49:58Especially your mother.
00:50:00The home-wrecking tramp.
00:50:03A whore.
00:50:12Your family suck, Jessica.
00:50:15Especially your mother.
00:50:17The home-wrecking tramp.
00:50:20A whore.
00:50:22Damn!
00:50:27How dare you slap me!
00:50:30That is enough.
00:50:32Kristen.
00:50:34You're not going to lay a hand on my wife.
00:50:39Ladies, you need to leave. Now.
00:50:42You can't throw us out. We're buyers.
00:50:44We're not going anywhere.
00:50:46The owner of this property has banned you from coming here.
00:50:48You need to leave now or I will call security.
00:50:52You will regret this.
00:50:56I've heard that a thousand times.
00:50:59Now leave.
00:51:03Leave.
00:51:10Thank you, Jessica.
00:51:12You stood up for me.
00:51:14Well, we're family, Jimmy.
00:51:16It's what I'm supposed to do.
00:51:21Well, I appreciate it.
00:51:24You're a nice girl.
00:51:26You found a good wife, son.
00:51:30Dad.
00:51:32It's a wedding.
00:51:34I don't think I'm going to be able to make it.
00:51:36I'll look into it.
00:51:38I'll speak to her about it.
00:51:40Oh, no, no, no, no.
00:51:42Daniel can still attend.
00:51:44It's not a problem.
00:51:46Jess, I just want to focus on you and I.
00:51:48I'm not the jealous type.
00:51:50Plus, I don't want you to miss your first crush's wedding.
00:51:53Well, you decide, Daniel.
00:51:56Oh, there's a lawn party.
00:51:58You two want to come?
00:52:00It's in three hours.
00:52:02Yeah.
00:52:04That will go.
00:52:06Great.
00:52:08I'll see you there.
00:52:19Well, this place is extremely high class.
00:52:23Well, my dad has a few rich friends.
00:52:30And James Thornton is here.
00:52:33I know you don't want to see him.
00:52:36But Jess, my dad's here.
00:52:38He's going to join us later.
00:52:40Okay.
00:52:42The bidding's about to start.
00:52:47Oh, that bitch is here!
00:52:50I know.
00:52:52Don't worry, we can teach him a lesson.
00:52:54Yeah, how?
00:52:56Let's see if Daniel can handle a little humiliation.
00:52:58With money.
00:52:59Here with money? What money?
00:53:01I haven't gotten my inheritance back yet.
00:53:03Yeah, I know. Your mother spoke to Richard.
00:53:05He said he's willing to donate us some cash
00:53:07if we make Jessica look ugly.
00:53:09Oh.
00:53:11You're the best.
00:53:14I know.
00:53:20Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to this evening's auction.
00:53:23We have for you the Last Dance.
00:53:26Bid starts at one million dollars.
00:53:30One million dollars!
00:53:35Two million dollars, right here.
00:53:40Three million dollars!
00:53:46Four million dollars!
00:53:50What are they doing? Where did they get that money from?
00:53:53I don't know, but they're definitely trying to humiliate you here.
00:53:56Really? But I don't even care about this bitch.
00:53:59Five million dollars!
00:54:02Daniel, what are you doing?
00:54:04Don't worry, Jess. I've got this.
00:54:08Five million dollars!
00:54:10Daniel, what are you doing?
00:54:12Don't worry, Jess. I've got this.
00:54:14I've got six million dollars.
00:54:17Cash.
00:54:19Boom.
00:54:21Can't compete with that.
00:54:23Watch this.
00:54:25Seven million dollars.
00:54:26Eight million dollars!
00:54:29Did that just happen?
00:54:31Ten million dollars!
00:54:34Awesome.
00:54:36Ten million, once, twice, sold.
00:54:41So, gentlemen, there.
00:54:50Where did you get that money from?
00:54:52Well, do 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.
00:55:03James Thornton.
00:55:05In the flesh, or 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.
00:55:15But I'm trying my best to make amends.
00:55:17Well, I don't know what to say.
00:55:22Jess, I know it's a lot to handle. You've just got to trust me.
00:55:25Yeah, but why didn't you just tell me in the first place, Daniel?
00:55:28Jess!
00:55:30Jessica!
00:55:32Don't follow me!
00:55:36Oh, this could get interesting.
00:55:48Oh, look who's all alone.
00:55:54No, just leave me alone.
00:55:56You're never going to win against James Thornton. He's my mother's best friend.
00:56:00You're going to lose everything.
00:56:02Poor babe, still played by the big boys.
00:56:05James Thornton and his son have been playing you all along.
00:56:09Wait, what did you just say?
00:56:12James Thornton and his son?
00:56:14Wait, Jess, you didn't know?
00:56:15Daniel Thornton is his son.
00:56:20Oh my God.
00:56:22I didn't know that, but now that I do...
00:56:25That's enough!
00:56:27Oh, excuse me, Mr. Thornton.
00:56:31The crown prince heir to the Thornton family.
00:56:41This man has 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.
00:56:58Jess, I've been trying to tell you.
00:57:00Am I a joke to you?
00:57:02No, what do you mean?
00:57:04You and your father.
00:57:06You've been playing me this whole time.
00:57:09No, I've been standing by your side all the time, Jess.
00:57:11I've been standing by your side all the time, Jess.
00:57:14I can't trust you.
00:57:16You lied to me.
00:57:18You're right.
00:57:20You're right.
00:57:23I have been hiding things from you.
00:57:27You know what I haven't told you yet?
00:57:30Another big secret.
00:57:33Are you sure you want to hear this?
00:57:34Are you sure you want to hear this?
00:57:41The other big secret is...
00:57:43The first time we met isn't what I think it is.
00:57:46It was five years ago.
00:57:48Five years ago?
00:57:50Yes.
00:57:52At a party.
00:57:54I was drunk and I fell in a pool.
00:58:04Oh, thank God you're alive.
00:58:10I was drowning and you saved my life.
00:58:13But you won't remember that.
00:58:16But I will forever be grateful for what you did for me that day.
00:58:20That...
00:58:22That was you?
00:58:23Yes.
00:58:24My father forbid me from seeing you.
00:58:27But I didn't care.
00:58:29I confronted him.
00:58:31You can't tell me what to do, Dad!
00:58:32You can't stop me from seeing her!
00:58:34I'm doing what's best for you, Daniel.
00:58:36That 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.
00:58:44And I felt so guilty.
00:58:46It's okay.
00:58:50I was ashamed to approach you.
00:58:52I 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.
00:58:58No, 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.
00:59:07And...
00:59:09You saved me.
00:59:11Because we...
00:59:13Just belong together.
00:59:17Ew.
00:59:18Corny.
00:59:21But just...
00:59:24No more secrets.
00:59:26Okay?
00:59:27Okay.
00:59:29I promise.
00:59:31No more secrets.
00:59:48You're up early.
00:59:50Yeah.
00:59:52I'm gonna go pick your mom up from the airport.
00:59:54Better sooner than later.
00:59:58Giannis just texted me.
01:00:00She said that I have my first weekly exec meeting this morning.
01:00:05I should postpone it.
01:00:07No. You should definitely go to that.
01:00:09You need to look good in front of your board.
01:00:11Really?
01:00:12Yeah.
01:00:13I'm gonna go pick your mom up from the airport and I'll bring her straight to the office.
01:00:16Thanks.
01:00:17You're the best.
01:00:22Well, that went better than I thought.
01:00:24Don't underestimate yourself, Jess.
01:00:26You did great.
01:00:31Heya, Jess.
01:00:33What are you doing here?
01:00:38What are you doing here?
01:00:40I just wanted to share with you some interesting facts about your dear husband, Daniel Thornton.
01:00:45Gianna, can you wait outside a moment?
01:00:52Okay. I'm telling you now.
01:00:54Whatever bad, made-up facts that you've come to tell me about Daniel, it's not gonna work.
01:01:00Because Daniel already told me everything.
01:01:03Everything? Are you so sure?
01:01:06Yeah. Him and his father came clean about everything. There is nothing more to hide.
01:01:10And did they also tell you Daniel was supposed to marry his childhood sweetheart?
01:01:14What?
01:01:15Ashley Wimbledon.
01:01:17Heiress to the famous Wimbledon family.
01:01:19Ring any bells?
01:01:21Ashley.
01:01:24Ashley.
01:01:26Who is Ashley? I heard you guys talking about her earlier.
01:01:31Oh, she's just an old childhood friend.
01:01:35They grew up and went to law school together.
01:01:38And she had Daniel's first kiss.
01:01:44He did mention Ashley.
01:01:49He did?
01:01:51Yeah, but he's not gonna marry her.
01:01:53I remember that conversation.
01:01:59Daniel's picking my mother up from the airport himself. I'll be seeing her soon.
01:02:05What are you laughing about?
01:02:11Daniel wants to bring her back, babe.
01:02:14He's not gonna see her.
01:02:15Daniel.
01:02:19After years of separation with your mother, Daniel didn't let you go along with him to meet with her?
01:02:25And what kind of a husband does that?
01:02:27I had an early meeting this morning and Daniel didn't want me to worry.
01:02:31So easily manipulated, Jess.
01:02:35Just like old times.
01:02:37Yeah, well, I don't believe a word you say.
01:02:41Daniel isn't gonna bring her back.
01:02:44Care to find out together?
01:02:54Are you sure everything is taken care of?
01:02:56Yes. You're free to live in this country.
01:02:59Clara, I also want to apologize for everything you went through years ago.
01:03:03I'm deeply sorry.
01:03:05Well, you did bring me back here.
01:03:07Right now I just want to see my daughter.
01:03:09We'll go to her.
01:03:11Not so fast, Danny boy.
01:03:14You're too late, Lisa.
01:03:16Clara's here to claim Robert's inheritance back.
01:03:18Oh, I don't think so.
01:03:20Agents, 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?
01:03:31I don't think so.
01:03:33Back off, Lisa.
01:03:34Watch it, pretty boy.
01:03:35Jess.
01:03:36Jess!
01:03:37Mom! Mom!
01:03:38What are you doing?
01:03:39Where are they taking my mother?
01:03:41Mom, I'll bring your mother back!
01:03:43I promise! Just stay strong!
01:03:45Sis, it looks like you've been screwed by the Thorntons again.
01:03:48Adrian, you sabotaged this.
01:03:50You'll pay for this!
01:03:52See, babe?
01:03:53I told you he's not bringing her back.
01:03:55You said everything was taken care of!
01:03:57Jess, it's not me.
01:03:59It's them.
01:04:00You're lying, Daniel.
01:04:01Why don't you ask him about that thing we talked about?
01:04:03Jess.
01:04:06Jess.
01:04:07He said that you were going to marry Ashley.
01:04:09Okay, so it's true!
01:04:10Jess, can we just talk about this?
01:04:13No. No, 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.
01:05:11Jess.
01:05:17Ted, what's the problem with Clara?
01:05:18Her payport was false.
01:05:20You're right, boss.
01:05:21I checked with customers in the USCIS,
01:05:23and they both confirmed that she illegally entered the country.
01:05:26Good.
01:05:27Run it, boss.
01:05:31Agents, do your thing.
01:05:33Wait!
01:05:34What?
01:05:35This is a mistake!
01:05:36No!
01:05:37Jess!
01:05:38Jess! Baby!
01:05:39Mom!
01:05:42The ICE agents weren't real.
01:05:44They were hired by Adrian and Lisa to kidnap Clara.
01:05:47Hold on a sec.
01:05:51You're right, boss.
01:05:52We found out those people want her.
01:05:54What should we do?
01:05:56I need to find out where they took them.
01:05:58Use all our contacts.
01:05:59I'm not going to let them get away with this.
01:06:01On it, boss.
01:06:10Well, well, well, Clara.
01:06:13Bet you didn't expect to see me again, did you?
01:06:16We finally have what it takes to get it all back?
01:06:19Don't look at me like that. You disgust me.
01:06:27Jess, we need to talk.
01:06:29I don't want to talk to you.
01:06:30It's about your mom.
01:06:32I think she was kidnapped by Adrian and Lisa's people.
01:06:34The ICE agents weren't real.
01:06:37What are you talking about?
01:06:39I spoke to Ted.
01:06:40He told me that Clara legally came into the country.
01:06:43It was a setup.
01:06:45Do you actually expect me to believe that?
01:06:48After all the lies?
01:06:49You're so full of shit, Daniel!
01:06:58Hello, bastard child.
01:07:00Yes, we have your mother.
01:07:02And if you ever want to see her again,
01:07:04follow the directions to the address that we just sent you.
01:07:07And don't bring anyone.
01:07:09Especially Daniel.
01:07:13Let me come with you.
01:07:14No, they want me alone.
01:07:15I don't want to risk it.
01:07:16Jess.
01:07:17Don't follow me!
01:07:18I will not let you do this alone.
01:07:26Mom?
01:07:27Bastard child, over here.
01:07:30You let her go.
01:07:31This has gone on far enough.
01:07:33Not so fast, sis.
01:07:35This is only the beginning.
01:07:40You sign this.
01:07:42We let her go.
01:07:45And what is it?
01:07:46An agreement signing everything over to us.
01:07:49The house.
01:07:51The company.
01:07:53Everything.
01:08:01It's signed.
01:08:03Now let her go.
01:08:05God, you are so naive, sis!
01:08:08What more do you want?
01:08:11Get down on your knees and show that you know your place.
01:08:17Get down on your knees and show that you know your place.
01:08:22Wait.
01:08:27That's better.
01:08:28That's better.
01:08:36Now bark like a dog.
01:08:42Come on.
01:08:47That's enough, Kristen.
01:08:52We're getting out of here, Monk.
01:08:59Let's get her out of here.
01:09:01Come on, let's go.
01:09:03God, Daniel!
01:09:07We can't.
01:09:09We need to finish this.
01:09:10Mom, we gotta go.
01:09:11Come on.
01:09:13Daniel!
01:09:19Jess.
01:09:22Don't try and talk to the police.
01:09:24They're on their way.
01:09:25Jess.
01:09:26I'm so sorry.
01:09:28God, why are you apologizing?
01:09:30Just don't move.
01:09:41The doctor said it was nothing serious, so you'll be out of here soon.
01:09:46Jess, I just want to apologize.
01:09:48I am so sorry.
01:09:50Daniel, what are you apologizing for?
01:09:54You saved my mom.
01:09:55You saved us.
01:09:58Hello again, Mr. Thornton.
01:10:00Officer, you're here.
01:10:02Yes.
01:10:03You promised me last week we'd get that interview done.
01:10:08Officer, my husband is injured.
01:10:11He's literally lying in bed.
01:10:13Well, that doesn't change the requirements.
01:10:16Jess, it's okay.
01:10:19We can do the interview.
01:10:24We can do the interview.
01:10:26Are you insane?
01:10:28We haven't rehearsed this.
01:10:31Jess, when you see we've been rehearsing this whole Christmas, there's no better time to do this.
01:10:38You're right.
01:10:41We're ready, officer.
01:10:43Let's start with the question I asked you last week.
01:10:46When did you two first meet?
01:10:48Five years and four months ago.
01:10:50I don't understand.
01:10:52Last time you said it was six months ago when the other one said it was eight months ago.
01:10:57We lied, officer.
01:10:59But it was five years ago at a pool party.
01:11:03And we had our first kiss when we first met.
01:11:08It sounds pretty far-fetched.
01:11:11But for some reason, I want to give you two the benefit of the doubt.
01:11:18It sounds pretty far-fetched.
01:11:21But for some reason, I want to give you two the benefit of the doubt.
01:11:26Daniel risked his life to save me and my mother.
01:11:29There's nothing more that he needs to do to prove his love for me.
01:11:33One last question.
01:11:35How frequently have you two spent the night together in the past week?
01:11:45Relax.
01:11:46I can tell it's been at least three times.
01:11:49Right, well, that's my interview done.
01:11:51You two are quite the couple.
01:11:53Thank you, officer.
01:11:57Daniel, she's coming.
01:11:59Who's coming?
01:12:06Your fiancé.
01:12:08That's who.
01:12:13Your fiancé.
01:12:15That's who.
01:12:16Ashley.
01:12:18I guess I'm not done yet.
01:12:20You betrayed my family's trust, Daniel.
01:12:23Ashley, please. Can't we talk about this?
01:12:27So you're Jessica Miller, huh?
01:12:30Adrian's told me all about you.
01:12:33I don't know what Adrian told you, but it's not what you think.
01:12:38Daniel was supposed to marry me.
01:12:41And then you just waltzed in and ruined everything.
01:12:44Ashley.
01:12:45Our engagement was long over before Jessica came to the picture.
01:12:52Oh, I see. You think this is over.
01:12:57I'm the heiress of the Wimbledon family.
01:13:01The 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.
01:13:32So hard.
01:13:37You've got guts, Jessica.
01:13:40I like you.
01:13:43I 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.
01:13:58I always knew Daniel didn't love me, but he was too afraid of his father to ever go after his true love.
01:14:06But I guess I'm happy that he's found someone who wants the same things as him.
01:14:15So, that's it?
01:14:20That's it.
01:14:24Enjoy your happy ending, darling.
01:14:30Andrea, bring the car around.
01:14:33Did that actually just happen?
01:14:35Yeah.
01:14:36Wow.
01:14:37You two really don't let anyone or anything get in the way of true love.
01:14:43You didn't see that coming.
01:14:47This is all your fault, Mom.
01:14:48If you wouldn't have been so reckless, then maybe we wouldn't be in this mess.
01:14:51Don't put all the blame on me.
01:14:52You're just as much a part of this as I am.
01:14:54Where is Ashley?
01:14:55She should be here by now.
01:14:58Miss me?
01:15:00Miss me?
01:15:02Where have you been?
01:15:03Just tying up a few loose ends.
01:15:05Don't worry about it.
01:15:06Everything's going according to plan.
01:15:08Plan?
01:15:09What plan?
01:15:10Everything's falling apart.
01:15:22What did you do, Adrian?
01:15:24Well, me myself?
01:15:25I 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.
01:15:36After all, I kept my hands clean.
01:15:43Ow!
01:15:44You're not gonna get away with this, asshole!
01:15:47I already have.
01:15:48I already have.
01:15:55I remember when this place was filled with warmth and laughter.
01:15:59Used to be a real family home back then, but then things just went south.
01:16:05Things will be fine again, Mom, I promise.
01:16:08We'll turn this into a good family house.
01:16:10No more hatred.
01:16:12No more backstabbing.
01:16:14I missed you every single day, Jess.
01:16:16I'm so sorry for everything both of us had to go through.
01:16:23Jessica.
01:16:24Clara.
01:16:26I am so sorry for everything that I've done to you both.
01:16:31I was wrong.
01:16:32And I know I can never fully make up for it, but I want to try.
01:16:37James, you kept us apart for so many years.
01:16:40It's gonna be hard to forgive and forget.
01:16:43I know, Clara.
01:16:47Jess, are you alright?
01:16:51Yeah, no, I'm... I'm fine.
01:16:54I just feel... I just feel nauseous, that's all.
01:16:59Have you been getting any other symptoms, like dizziness or fatigue?
01:17:05Well, yeah, but I just thought that was from all the stress.
01:17:11Sweetheart, you're pregnant!
01:17:14Really?
01:17:15You're showing all the signs, Jess.
01:17:19We're gonna have a baby!
01:17:22Wait, that means I'm gonna be a grandpa!
01:17:27Yeah!
01:17:35Daniel.
01:17:38There's something you need to do.
01:17:40What's this?
01:17:41This is a ring your grandma left.
01:17:44And I think this is the perfect time to use it.
01:17:48Go get it.
01:17:49I'm gonna do this.
01:17:50Yeah, go.
01:18:02Jess.
01:18:03Jess!
01:18:05Jess?
01:18:06Jess!
01:18:10Jess, 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.
01:18:21And I've had to endure the pain of that not being possible.
01:18:24I want to spend every waking moment in time with you.
01:18:27What I'm trying to say is, Jess...
01:18:34Will you marry me?
01:18:37For real this time.
01:18:40Yes, Daniel. Yes, I will marry you.
01:18:42Yes!
01:18:43Really?
01:18:44Yes!
