00:00:00I can't solve this problem.
00:00:08Come on babe, you're breaking my heart.
00:00:13I'll tell you what, I'll put a good word in front of my mom for you, alright?
00:00:23Hello?
00:00:24Bill, tomorrow's my birthday, can you?
00:00:30I can't make it, I've got a business trip scheduled, yeah.
00:00:48My dear wife, today is the day you die.
00:01:06Surprised?
00:01:07Bill, please, I beg you, no, kill me, please.
00:01:14Oh honey, happy 5th wedding anniversary.
00:01:21I forgot to tell you, I'm not actually infertile, Kevin is my son with Chloe.
00:01:32Thank you for loving taking care of Kevin over these last 5 years, but now you can simply
00:01:42go to hell.
00:01:44No, please.
00:01:45I'll be taking your part in your family's business.
00:01:50No, please, no, I beg you, no.
00:02:03Sophie, I'll be replacing you as Bill's wife from now on.
00:02:12I can't believe that Bill is trying to kill me, I've loved him as my husband for 5 years.
00:02:22I can't believe that Bill is trying to kill me, I've loved him as my husband for 5 years.
00:02:42After all I, after all I did for Kevin as my stepson, it was never meant to be.
00:02:57He ended up being the bastard child of my husband and his mistress.
00:03:01If I ever get a second chance, I'll never forgive him.
00:03:12Where am I?
00:03:14Did I not die?
00:03:16Could it be that I've been revived?
00:03:29Who are you?
00:03:31Oh, I'm your man for tonight, baby.
00:03:34You're driving me crazy.
00:03:36Just get away from me, no!
00:03:38This is the day when I was drugged and raped three months ago.
00:03:44I won't make the same mistake again.
00:04:08It's him, Edmund. He's Bill's older cousin.
00:04:14Get out!
00:04:26Please, help me.
00:04:39Book me an afternoon flight to L.A. and prepare me the car to the airport.
00:04:48One of the deceased in the vehicle was Edmund Conkling, the CEO of Victoria Empire Conglomerate.
00:04:56You see, Sophie? That's what happens to those who stand in the way of ocean deep.
00:05:13You can't go to the airport. You have to cancel your flight.
00:05:16Sophie, are you trying to play tricks with me? I didn't touch you last night. Don't try to blackmail me.
00:05:25Please, trust me. You'll die if you go to the airport. I'm trying to save your life.
00:05:32How did you know?
00:05:34You'll be grateful after today that you trusted me. We can talk more about this later.
00:05:40You have a feud with Bill's family, so I won't let you die.
00:05:46I'll see you tomorrow at the restaurant.
00:05:50I hope that trusting you is the right choice.
00:05:56Sophie has been missing all night, and you're only telling me just now?
00:06:02If anything's happened to her, I'll kill you.
00:06:06Bill, are you okay?
00:06:11Old hag, I can't wait to see the look on your face when you see the state of your precious granddaughter.
00:06:17Sir, we've dealt with the rapist.
00:06:19Thank you, Thomas. Help me cancel the plane ticket.
00:06:24I'm sorry, sir. I didn't mean to.
00:06:26I'm sorry, sir. I didn't mean to.
00:06:28I'm sorry, sir. I didn't mean to.
00:06:30I'm sorry, sir. I didn't mean to.
00:06:32I'm sorry, sir. I didn't mean to.
00:06:41Sophie.
00:06:43Grandma?
00:06:45Bill said you didn't come home all night. Are you alright?
00:07:01Grandma died of a heart attack after she heard you were raped.
00:07:06I know.
00:07:30I'm sorry.
00:07:46You're still alive this time. It's not too late.
00:08:01Bill, Chloe, I'll be making your lives a living hell this time.
00:08:08Chloe, please get me a drink.
00:08:15Sit down, Grandma.
00:08:17Bill, I'm glad you're here.
00:08:23Here is the share transfer contract of Skyline Conglomerate.
00:08:27Share transfer contract?
00:08:29Yes. Since Grandma is getting old, she wants to retire.
00:08:34From now on, the company will be under our management.
00:08:43You're useless! What kind of secretary can't even do a single task?
00:08:48Dare you!
00:08:49Sophie, stop being so aggressive! Apologize to Chloe, now!
00:08:55I can't believe you. You spent a whole night preparing this contract,
00:08:59but it seems that you care more about your secretary than the Skyline Conglomerate.
00:09:05We will talk about the Conglomerate inheritance next time.
00:09:08Get out!
00:09:25What happened to the people you arranged to handle Sophie?
00:09:29You can't even handle a small mission.
00:09:32I lost my shares. You're useless!
00:09:55Hey, I need you to do me a favor.
00:10:01I don't remember telling you to take charge of our family business, Skyline Conglomerate.
00:10:07Don't you know how hard the work can get?
00:10:10Remember, Grandma's not too old to help you out.
00:10:14I'm fooling them, Grandma. It's a fake transfer contract.
00:10:18Oh.
00:10:19What's going on with you and Bill?
00:10:22He's cheating on me.
00:10:24Kevin is his and Chloe's biological son.
00:10:27Those two hooked up a long time ago.
00:10:31No wonder he's always standing on that bitch's side.
00:10:36What are you gonna do, Sophie?
00:10:38I'll divorce him.
00:10:40But before that, I'll make them pay the price for all the pain I've been through in my past life.
00:10:47We've just received reports that the bridge to the airport has suddenly collapsed.
00:10:51Fortunately, no one was killed or injured.
00:10:54Look how dirty these are.
00:10:56Aren't we going through that bridge?
00:10:58For the airport?
00:11:00Fortunately, you rebooked the ticket.
00:11:04I'm not going through that bridge.
00:11:07I'm not going through that bridge.
00:11:09I'm not going through that bridge.
00:11:11I'm not going through that bridge.
00:11:13Sophie, you rebooked the ticket.
00:11:16How did you know?
00:11:18You'll be grateful after today that you trusted me.
00:11:22We can talk more about this later.
00:11:24Something feels off about this. Turn the car around.
00:11:43Are you all right?
00:12:12I guess.
00:12:14Get out of here.
00:12:26Why did you come looking for me?
00:12:28Sophie, how did you know that the bridge would collapse?
00:12:35I know a lot more than that.
00:12:38Let's make a deal.
00:12:42I know you're the true heir of Ocean Deep Conglomerate.
00:12:46Those people banished you from your own company,
00:12:49taking advantage of your father's passing.
00:12:52Are you really okay with how things are?
00:12:55Don't you want to get revenge on your enemies?
00:13:00Your husband owns Ocean Deep Conglomerate now,
00:13:03but everyone knows that the business is thriving thanks to you.
00:13:07You think he's cheating on me?
00:13:12I can make his company fall.
00:13:16But I need your help.
00:13:18Since it's come to this, why don't you just divorce him?
00:13:22Of course I will.
00:13:26But only after I ruin him.
00:13:28Tell me then, what do you need me to do?
00:13:32Well, Chloe is his mistress, and her birthday is in two days.
00:13:36Will is going to celebrate it at the Golden Lake Hotel,
00:13:39but what he doesn't know is that she owns this hotel.
00:13:44I need you to do something about this.
00:13:48And then...
00:13:58Alright, I'll help you then.
00:14:01Thank you, Edmund. Thank you for your help.
00:14:04I really appreciate it.
00:14:24Thank you so much for saving me and taking me home.
00:14:28No problem. Get a good night's rest.
00:14:32See you.
00:14:46Sir, taking off Deep Ocean Group is a piece of cake for you.
00:14:49Why would you help her?
00:14:51Didn't you hear what she said? She wants a divorce.
00:14:54She wasn't sad when she told me that her husband was cheating on her.
00:14:57Sophie is not the same as she was when she was a child.
00:15:00Keep an eye on Bill, and let me know if you have any news about her.
00:15:07I can't solve this problem.
00:15:13Come on, babe. You're breaking my heart.
00:15:18I'll tell you what.
00:15:20I'll put a good word in front of my mom for you.
00:15:23Alright?
00:15:31Oh.
00:15:40Hello?
00:15:43Bill, tomorrow is my birthday. Can you...
00:15:46I can't make it.
00:15:49I've got a business trip scheduled.
00:15:52Yeah.
00:15:56Here's your birthday food trip tomorrow, alright?
00:15:59Of course. This is the Golden Lake Hotel.
00:16:02My family is going to be there as well.
00:16:05I'm really looking forward to checking you out.
00:16:08Checking me out?
00:16:11Wait.
00:16:14We'll continue after you take a shower.
00:16:17Alright.
00:16:20I'll check you out after I take a shower.
00:16:24Hello, Mrs. Sophie.
00:16:27Chloe?
00:16:30What do you want?
00:16:33I'm coming to apologize.
00:16:36We share the same birthday.
00:16:39But Bill has decided to not come to the party tomorrow.
00:16:42We can celebrate together at the most luxurious hotel in the world.
00:16:45I'm sorry.
00:16:48It's okay.
00:16:51We can celebrate together at the most luxurious hotel in Monterey.
00:16:54The Golden Lake Hotel.
00:16:57In my previous life, I found out that Bill threw her birthday party instead of me.
00:17:00I was completely devastated.
00:17:03Then the car accident happened and I became paralyzed.
00:17:06Yeah?
00:17:09Let's have a party together.
00:17:12You're really going to come and join us?
00:17:15Just kidding.
00:17:18I won't be there tomorrow.
00:17:21Chloe.
00:17:24I hope your birthday will be unforgettable.
00:17:37Your husband's with another woman on your birthday.
00:17:40Doesn't that make you even the least bit upset?
00:17:43Not at all.
00:17:47Hey, I took the liberty to invite some friends to your party.
00:17:50This should be very interesting.
00:18:01I told my parents that I would introduce you as my boyfriend.
00:18:04Didn't I already tell you?
00:18:07You have to introduce me as your boss.
00:18:10You know very well that I'm already married.
00:18:13Honey, my parents are ordinary people.
00:18:16No one actually knows about you.
00:18:19Just let them know that I have a rich boyfriend.
00:18:22Help me out there.
00:18:25Okay, okay.
00:18:28Just tell me in advance before you do something like that.
00:18:44Sophie, what are you doing here?
00:18:52We're going to celebrate together at the most luxurious hotel in London.
00:18:55The Golden Lake Hotel.
00:19:01Darling, I brought a surprise for you.
00:19:04Come here.
00:19:07What the hell is he doing here?
00:19:10Don't let your voice down.
00:19:13All the guests here are celebrities from Montreal.
00:19:16Edmund invited them to help us expand the family business.
00:19:19Edmund has a feud with my family.
00:19:22Why would he help me?
00:19:25Let's say he owes me a favor.
00:19:28Well, well, well.
00:19:31Long time no see, Bill.
00:19:35Bill, I...
00:19:41How did this suddenly become Sophie's birthday party?
00:19:44Oh, crap. I need to call mom and dad right now.
00:19:47I'll be damned if I let them come and see me at this date.
00:19:50God damn it. Why can't I get a signal here?
00:19:53Good thing we came up with a single gem, man. Smart move.
00:19:56How did you come up with this?
00:20:00Miss Chloe?
00:20:03Where are you off in such a hurry?
00:20:06Edmund helped out Bill a lot today.
00:20:09We need to properly thank him.
00:20:12You can start the show now, Sophie.
00:20:15Ladies and gentlemen, thank you all for coming to my birthday party.
00:20:18I'm planning to transfer my shares in Skyline Conglomerate over to my husband, Bill.
00:20:24Honey, our fifth wedding anniversary is coming up.
00:20:27My family's company will be my gift for you.
00:20:30I love you.
00:20:33Bill, Sophie really adores you.
00:20:36Don't let her down.
00:20:39Sophie, are you serious?
00:20:42Of course I am.
00:20:45And I have Chloe to thank for this.
00:20:48Thank you, Miss Chloe, for helping me to arrange this surprise.
00:20:51What are you talking about? I don't know anything about this.
00:20:54Bill, we should thank Chloe for all of this.
00:20:57Chloe, thank you so much.
00:21:00This is your surprise all along. I love it.
00:21:03No, I didn't. I don't know what's happening.
00:21:10All right, Bill. You just need to sign this.
00:21:13From now on, you'll be the one at the head of Skyline Conglomerate.
00:21:18Come on.
00:21:21See, I was telling the truth. My daughter really has been dating a rich man.
00:21:24Mom, Dad, what are you doing here?
00:21:27This isn't a good time. We have to go.
00:21:30What are you talking about?
00:21:33I thought we were about to meet your boyfriend today.
00:21:36Of course. You must be our son-in-law.
00:21:39I have seen you in the pictures.
00:21:42Who are you?
00:21:46And what are you doing with my son-in-law?
00:21:49Did you just say that Bill was your son-in-law?
00:21:52Chloe, what's going on?
00:21:55Bill, this must have been Sophie's plan all along.
00:21:58Shame on you. Bill is my daughter's boyfriend.
00:22:01How can you take his arm like that?
00:22:04That Bill is your son-in-law?
00:22:07Of course. He's been sending us thousands of dollars every month.
00:22:10He bought us two houses.
00:22:14Oh, that's crazy.
00:22:17And to think Sophie was planning to hand over her business to her husband.
00:22:20He's been cheating on her this whole time.
00:22:23Bill?
00:22:26Did you call him here to embarrass me?
00:22:29We've been married for five years and I never meant to spend a penny on me.
00:22:32But what have you been doing?
00:22:35You bought a house for our secretary as her boyfriend?
00:22:38Sophie, you have to believe me.
00:22:41This is all just part of Chloe's dramatics.
00:22:44It has nothing to do with me.
00:22:47Why aren't you telling her the truth?
00:22:50Who are you to harm my son-in-law's money and try to seduce him like that?
00:22:53You are nothing but a shameless bitch.
00:22:56You know who the real bitch is?
00:22:59Your daughter.
00:23:02Watch your mouth. How dare you insult my daughter like that?
00:23:05Watch your mouth.
00:23:08Chloe is a member of Skyline Company. She's also Bill's wife.
00:23:11Bullshit! Chloe, what's going on?
00:23:14Stop adding fuel to the fire.
00:23:17Bill, let me explain.
00:23:20Chloe, please be mindful of your behavior.
00:23:23There was never anything between us.
00:23:26Bill, I'm so disappointed in you.
00:23:29Forget everything I said about Skyline Conglomerate.
00:23:32No, Sophie. Please, please don't.
00:23:39Bill, let me explain.
00:23:42You get the fuck out of here. You're fired.
00:23:45What a disaster.
00:23:48You have completely embarrassed me today.
00:23:51Damn it, Chloe. This is an absolute embarrassment.
00:23:54I'm ashamed to call you my daughter.
00:23:57Bill, I can explain this.
00:24:00Don't you know we've lost several projects at the company recently?
00:24:03We needed Sophie's money for working capital.
00:24:07I have nothing to do with this, Bill. Please, you have to trust me.
00:24:10Trust you? How do you explain that recording?
00:24:13It wasn't you that called Sophie?
00:24:16Do you think I'm an idiot?
00:24:19What do you think you're doing? Don't you dare touch my daughter like that.
00:24:22Don't bother me again.
00:24:25Sophie, you need to drop dead.
00:24:37Don't you want to answer that?
00:24:42Sir, madam, it's the weekends.
00:24:45It's going to be jammed at the Southern Lake.
00:24:48We have to detour.
00:24:51Edmund, please, take me to the Southern Lake.
00:24:54Quickly.
00:24:57Driver, take us to the Southern Lake.
00:25:06I'm sorry, sweetie, but I made the mistake of having you.
00:25:36I'm sorry.
00:25:54You're only 20 years old.
00:25:57Your life has barely begun.
00:26:00Don't punish yourself for other people's mistakes.
00:26:03There is $10,000 on it. There is no pain.
00:26:06Please, go and find the best hospital to get an abortion.
00:26:09I work in Skyline Conglomerate.
00:26:12Call me tomorrow.
00:26:15I'll find the best lawyer out there to send your rapist into jail.
00:26:18Thank you. Thank you.
00:26:21I'll make sure to repay you one day.
00:26:34Oh.
00:26:37Since you just had to poke your nose into things
00:26:40and discover my relationship with Chloe,
00:26:43you practically asked for this to happen.
00:26:58A 20-year-old young woman named Jasmine
00:27:01Shea was found dead in the Southern Lake.
00:27:04After being sexually assaulted,
00:27:07she was unable to afford an abortion and committed suicide.
00:27:10She was one of the top students in the Monterey
00:27:13for getting accepted into an Ivy League.
00:27:20Sophie, are you okay?
00:27:32I don't know what I'm doing!
00:27:35Put me down!
00:27:46This seems swollen.
00:27:49Does it hurt?
00:27:52I'm blind.
00:27:55So if you're blind,
00:27:58I'm blind.
00:28:01Sophie, I know that Bill's been a dick to you the last few years.
00:28:04He's hurt you on several occasions.
00:28:07But if you need someone, you can let me know.
00:28:10Thank you for your concern.
00:28:13But I think you're mistaken.
00:28:16I'm not some canary in a cold mine
00:28:19who's doomed to see my pathetic son suffocate.
00:28:23That would only give another reason for my animations to flop it.
00:28:26After all,
00:28:29what doesn't kill me will make me stronger.
00:28:36My driver's here.
00:28:39You can go now, Abraham.
00:28:42Well,
00:28:45remember to be kind to yourself.
00:28:48And happy birthday.
00:29:12Happy birthday. Be kind to yourself.
00:29:15Happy birthday. Be kind to yourself.
00:29:18Is that him?
00:29:25Are you kidding me?
00:29:28100 million?
00:29:31100 million just gone?
00:29:34How did an earthquake hit Dia Bay?
00:29:45I don't know.
00:30:07The auction for the Dia Bay project is only half a month away.
00:30:10Bill,
00:30:13you've already lost more than 100 million dollars.
00:30:16This time, I'm going to take your entire fortune.
00:30:23Wasn't Bill having an affair with Ms. Chloe?
00:30:26How did she find out? I wonder what happened.
00:30:29Ms. Chloe?
00:30:32Is that box too heavy?
00:30:35Do you need any help?
00:30:38No.
00:30:44Don't get so comfortable, Sophie.
00:30:47It's only a matter of time before I get even.
00:30:50Earthquake? Volcanoes?
00:30:53Are you fucking kidding me?
00:30:56What did you just say? You're not going to give me the money?
00:30:59We're about to start bidding on Dia Bay.
00:31:02Where am I supposed to get the money from?
00:31:05Bill, there are active volcanoes under Dia Bay.
00:31:08It could cause an earthquake.
00:31:11The land there isn't suitable for development.
00:31:14Earthquake? Volcanoes?
00:31:17Are you fucking kidding me?
00:31:20Even Edmund is confident about this project.
00:31:23There won't be any problems.
00:31:26See, I'm...
00:31:29Are you conspiring with Edmund?
00:31:32Sophie,
00:31:35have I been too lenient on you?
00:31:38You can't do this for your own good.
00:31:41If you don't trust me, then forget it.
00:31:44Sophie doesn't seem to be willing to help Bill.
00:31:47If I find a way to help him,
00:31:50I wonder if he'll take me back.
00:31:53Hey, baby, ever since you started dating Bill,
00:31:56you've been getting better in bed.
00:31:59Maybe you should leave him for me, huh?
00:32:02Oh, and don't forget about the loan.
00:32:05How much does it actually count?
00:32:08The Dia Bay project seems worth it.
00:32:11If it weren't for that,
00:32:14I definitely wouldn't be forking over my own funds.
00:32:17This is my investment as much as it's yours.
00:32:20Sophie, I just sent the photos to you.
00:32:23Should I keep following Chloe around?
00:32:26Jasmine, you don't have to repay me, you know.
00:32:29Please, Sophie, please let me stay and help you.
00:32:32All right.
00:32:35Then I just need you to do one more thing for me.
00:32:43The family dinner will be held tomorrow.
00:32:46Right, Lotus?
00:32:49This necklace line is only available at this store location.
00:32:52Let me buy you one as a gift.
00:32:55If you wear it tomorrow, you're guaranteed to stand out.
00:32:58You're certainly loyal to family.
00:33:01Yeah, but let me say this.
00:33:04Don't even think about using my son's money.
00:33:13Hi, how may I help you?
00:33:19How long have you been cheating on me with Casey, Ash?
00:33:22What are you talking about?
00:33:25We've been married seven years.
00:33:28I want a divorce.
00:33:31Hey, hey, hey, come back here.
00:33:34Olivia, a divorce? Come on.
00:33:37Look, Casey was just a tool for me to have a child so I can have my father's company.
00:33:40That's it.
00:33:43A tool? You are a monster.
00:33:46Hey, come back. Let me explain.
00:33:49Let go of me.
00:33:52I'm not going to let go of you. We're bound to be soulmates forever.
00:33:58Marry me.
00:34:01Oh, Ash.
00:34:07I love you.
00:34:10I love you. We'll be together forever.
00:34:13Get out. Get out!
00:34:16This isn't over. Mark my words.
00:34:22Olivia speaking.
00:34:25No, this can't be true.
00:34:28Are you planning on having a child?
00:34:31Yes. I've been trying to.
00:34:34I suggest you give birth before you're 35.
00:34:39Only one year left.
00:34:42I'd like to submit an application.
00:34:45I'd like a natural birth, face-to-face sex, but no feelings attached.
00:34:50Boss, it's Miss Woods.
00:34:54She's divorced and is searching for a sperm donor.
00:34:57What?
00:35:00A couple hours ago. And guess what? She registered through our Rubik agency.
00:35:03Have them put my data in immediately.
00:35:06Write my name as Romeo.
00:35:09Miss Woods, we just sent you an email.
00:35:12These are all the applicants we have.
00:35:15Too slim.
00:35:18Too much beard.
00:35:22Tell me more about this guy, Romeo.
00:35:25Romeo is a high-class escort.
00:35:28He only services rich people.
00:35:31He happens to have an opening tonight, if you'd like.
00:35:34Perfect. Book me in.
00:35:45Are you Romeo?
00:35:48Stand up.
00:36:00Take off your robe. We don't need this.
00:36:03Yes, my lady.
00:36:06Your body is...
00:36:09flawless.
00:36:13Can you give me a one million dollar sex experience?
00:36:18And I want a baby.
00:36:22I won't let you down, my lady.
00:36:33I'll do anything for you, my lady.
00:36:36I want a child.
00:36:43Sasha, I'm still not pregnant.
00:36:46Relax. Have some faith in your Romeo, Juliet.
00:36:49By the way, how's he in bed?
00:36:52Much better than my cheating ex-husband.
00:36:58Romeo?
00:37:01Wait, you have a secret escort boy?
00:37:04He's handsome.
00:37:07Is he single?
00:37:10No. He doesn't do relationships.
00:37:13He trades sex for money. That's his profession.
00:37:16And he's very good at it.
00:37:19What a waste.
00:37:22Oh, I gotta go, bestie. Bye.
00:37:28Look who it is. The CEO of Woods Enterprise.
00:37:31Why do you look so miserable?
00:37:34Get out of my face, Casey.
00:37:37My baby daddy, your ex-husband, sent me here on business.
00:37:40But just small talk between girls.
00:37:43How's your baby project going?
00:37:46You can tell your baby daddy that I will never do business with the Wilsons again.
00:37:51Is this because of your sad little divorce?
00:37:54Compared to my miracle baby, your seven years of marriage was nothing.
00:37:57Baby you got by cheating with Ash,
00:38:00who was so brainless to choose you.
00:38:03You slut!
00:38:06Take care of your baby shower.
00:38:09You're welcome.
00:38:12Excuse me. I'm Ash Wilson's fiance.
00:38:15Can you do me a favor and help me cancel Olivia Woods' membership?
00:38:18She just assaulted me.
00:38:21I'll see what I can do.
00:38:24Seems like that won't be possible.
00:38:27What? Why?
00:38:30He got his membership from me, bitch.
00:38:33I'm sorry, Casey. This is the last time you'll ever set foot in this bar.
00:38:36Liam, will you cancel Ash Wilson's membership for me, please?
00:38:39Of course.
00:38:42Ms. Woods, I would just have to verify your card.
00:38:45This card has expired.
00:38:48You can't use this.
00:38:51I knew you were bluffing, bitch. Where did you get it? The trash can?
00:38:54Here. It was mine.
00:38:57She's my girlfriend.
00:39:00This is my card. Only ten people have it.
00:39:03Ma'am, I'm going to have to ask you to leave.
00:39:06Please inform Mr. Wilson.
00:39:09Ash Wilson's fiance!
00:39:12Thank you for saving me from embarrassment.
00:39:15But how do you have this Sapphire card?
00:39:18Oh, it's my pleasure, my lady.
00:39:21And it was a gift from a client.
00:39:24You are just full of surprises, Romeo.
00:39:30Now showing up as my prince charming.
00:39:33I don't have any clients.
00:39:36Where's that?
00:39:39Don't ask.
00:39:42Just you.
00:39:45These all happen to be my size.
00:39:48This one's gorgeous.
00:39:51Oh.
00:39:58Oh.
00:40:09Hey, John Doe.
00:40:12Once for yes, twice for no.
00:40:15Your family yet?
00:40:18No. Okay.
00:40:21I'll have to stay here with you tonight.
00:40:27I'll be there.
00:40:32Glad you enjoyed it.
00:40:35Can I stay over tonight?
00:40:38Okay. I could use some company.
00:40:41Olivia!
00:40:48What the fuck, Ash?
00:40:51I told you to stop coming over.
00:40:54What the fuck is this?
00:40:57Where is he?
00:41:00Where the...
00:41:03Wrong.
00:41:06Romeo, I told you to hide.
00:41:09I had to do something. He was coming right at me.
00:41:12It's best if people don't know about you. Especially him.
00:41:15I'm sorry.
00:41:18Jack! Jack! Jack!
00:41:21Chuck! Chuck! Chuck!
00:41:24Yeah!
00:41:27Yeah!
00:41:30What is wrong with you?
00:41:33I say chug, you fucking chug!
00:41:36Stop! You can't treat Jane like this.
00:41:39Thank you, babe. Let's get out of here.
00:41:42You should leave, Jane.
00:41:45What the fuck?
00:41:49Yes, Jane. I'm rich.
00:41:52My family already offered Deanna a job at the company.
00:41:55But all you...
00:41:58I think it's time you left.
00:42:01And by the way, Deanna and I are actually engaged.
00:42:04Curious house in all of the neighborhood.
00:42:07All right, I'll take it.
00:42:10I'll have my assistant take a look at the documents.
00:42:16What are you wearing right now? You have a meeting in an hour.
00:42:19What should I wear in the meantime?
00:42:27What's next?
00:42:30Your father's family.
00:42:33Or your personal item.
00:42:36Okay. Will do, sir.
00:42:46What's she doing here?
00:42:51You should leave, Jane.
00:42:54And by the way,
00:42:57do totally come.
00:43:07You a gardener?
00:43:10Yeah. Sure.
00:43:13Do you want to make a few bucks?
00:43:16Do you have a girlfriend?
00:43:19No.
00:43:22Then get engaged to me.
00:43:34I was only talking about an engagement.
00:43:37Is this too much?
00:43:40I need your help with something.
00:43:43I will pay you $500 a week.
00:43:46And it would only be for like six months.
00:43:49At least. We'll see how it goes.
00:43:52Why not just go the whole nine yards and get married?
00:43:55Fine. But I'm not paying you any extra.
00:43:58The agreement is still only for six months.
00:44:01It's no problem.
00:44:04And with that being said, by the power vested in me,
00:44:07I now pronounce you husband and wife.
00:44:18It's pretty.
00:44:21It looks expensive here.
00:44:24No. Hold on to it.
00:44:27My mom left me it. It suits you.
00:44:30You're acting really good.
00:44:33I was touched.
00:44:36I'm not going to pay you anything except for the performance, though.
00:44:43Where are we?
00:44:46This is our house.
00:44:49Whoa.
00:44:52This is a fake marriage.
00:44:55There is no way that we can afford this rent.
00:44:58Don't worry. It's not actually my house.
00:45:01It's my friend's house.
00:45:04You are very...
00:45:07mysterious.
00:45:10Mysterious? How so?
00:45:13Are you sure this isn't your house?
00:45:16I wish.
00:45:19This place is nuts.
00:45:22My friend, he's loaded.
00:45:25Hmm.
00:45:28No. No, it couldn't be.
00:45:31I don't expect a raise just because of all...
00:45:34this.
00:45:43Frank? Are you asleep?
00:45:46Nope. Come in.
00:45:49Um...
00:45:52Remember when I said I needed your help with something?
00:45:55Basically,
00:45:58I met this guy that I had been seeing for a while, and...
00:46:01I've been with people for a long time.
00:46:04I've been with people for a long time.
00:46:07I've been with people for a long time.
00:46:10Really, I would like to figure out a way to get back at them
00:46:13at their engagement party.
00:46:16They did that to you?
00:46:19Of course I'll help you.
00:46:22Do you think you could make yourself look...
00:46:25Do you think you could make yourself look rich?
00:46:31Uh...
00:46:34Let's see what I could do.
00:46:56Mike?
00:47:03You must have been a king in your previous life.
00:47:06You...
00:47:09You look like the heir to a rich family.
00:47:12Guess my acting's just that good.
00:47:15Not even worth the pay raise, don't you think?
00:47:18No. Don't look at me like that.
00:47:21I am going to drop your pay every time you look at me again
00:47:24with those puppy dog eyes.
00:47:27You ready?
00:47:30Bradley, I'm pregnant.
00:47:33You're going to be a father.
00:47:36What's she doing here?
00:47:39What do you think?
00:47:42No need to hide anymore.
00:47:45I'm leaving you. For Catherine.
00:47:48Unlike you, I'm young and rich.
00:47:51I'm the vice president of her family's hospital.
00:47:54She's also way better in bed.
00:47:57What's that?
00:48:03She's pregnant?
00:48:06What?
00:48:09She must be faking it to trap you.
00:48:12Give it back! Stop!
00:48:15Give it back!
00:48:21Give it back!
00:48:37Where am I?
00:48:40What happened?
00:48:43The baby... Is the baby okay?
00:48:47I'm so sorry.
00:48:50We've lost the baby.
00:48:53I'm so sorry.
00:49:00We're right here, sweetheart. We're right here.
00:49:11I won't let Bradley and that woman
00:49:14get away with this.
00:49:17I'm ready to come back, Dad.
00:49:20Well, revenge won't heal the heart.
00:49:23This isn't about revenge. This is about holding them accountable.
00:49:26Are you sure you're ready for this?
00:49:29I've been preparing for years, Mom.
00:49:32Okay, but there is a condition.
00:49:35I have an important announcement.
00:49:38My daughter, Mia Gerber,
00:49:41will be the new CEO of Gerber Corporation.
00:49:44Is Mia ready for such a big role?
00:49:47I've been concealing my identity to go undercover within the industry.
00:49:50I've learned our competitors from the inside.
00:49:53Trust me, I'm more than ready.
00:49:56Furthermore,
00:49:59Mia will marry Joshua Lane from Lane Holdings.
00:50:02Mia will marry Joshua Lane from Lane Holdings.
00:50:06There is a condition.
00:50:09You're going to have to marry Joshua Lane,
00:50:12the heir of Lane Holdings.
00:50:15Mia's never even met this guy before.
00:50:18It's a strategic alliance, Noah.
00:50:21It's what's best for our families and the company.
00:50:24I'll do it.
00:50:27I'll marry Joshua Lane if that's what it takes.
00:50:30And this alliance
00:50:34will strengthen our company and secure our future.
00:50:44Isn't Joshua Lane famous for being called the Ruffles?
00:50:47That's what I heard.
00:50:50I think it'll be good for the company.
00:50:53I don't think it'll be good for the new CEO.
00:51:04Joshua, I was hoping we could...
00:51:07Not interested. Get lost.
00:51:12Man, you are brutal.
00:51:15That's the fifth girl you've turned down tonight.
00:51:18Hey, I heard you're getting hitched to Mia Gerber.
00:51:21Why didn't you turn her down?
00:51:24This marriage is what my parents want.
00:51:27Couldn't care less about her.
00:51:30Come on, she's the heiress to the Gerber Corporation.
00:51:33There must be some perks to her.
00:51:36Perks or not, she'll learn quickly that I'm not one to be messed with.
00:51:39Gonna give her a hard time, huh?
00:51:42Let's just say that she's got something coming.
00:51:51Do you, Joshua Lane, take Mia Gerber for your lawfully wedded wife?
00:51:54I do.
00:51:57And you, Mia Gerber,
00:52:00do you take Joshua Lane for your lawfully wedded husband?
00:52:03I do.
00:52:06Uh, the rings?
00:52:15You may now kiss the bride.
00:52:28Let's get one thing straight, Mia.
00:52:31This marriage is a show for our family and the rest of the world.
00:52:34Don't expect any affection from me.
00:52:37Understood. And vice versa.
00:52:58My parents want to set up a dinner with us. My assistant will set it up.
00:53:01She can coordinate schedules with my assistant.
00:53:04Wrong.
00:53:08Joshua has always been so...
00:53:11distant with people.
00:53:14Unlike Alex here,
00:53:17who's so popular and charismatic.
00:53:20You should see all the women that can't stop chasing.
00:53:23I know, right?
00:53:26I know, right?
00:53:29I know, right?
00:53:32I know, right?
00:53:35You should see all the women that can't stop chasing.
00:53:38Well, at least I don't have to worry if Alex can give me a grandson.
00:53:41Well, at least I don't have to worry if Alex can give me a grandson.
00:53:44But I wonder, Joshua,
00:53:47if you can even warm up enough to give me a child.
00:53:50You need an heir, after all.
00:53:53Belenor, that's enough.
00:53:56I'm just saying, perhaps Alex is a better fit to lead Lang Holden.
00:53:59Quite the contrary.
00:54:02Actually, Joshua's very passionate.
00:54:05Especially in the bedroom.
00:54:08No doubt that you'll have that heir soon.
00:54:16For your information,
00:54:19passion is not in my DNA,
00:54:22nor does it align with my personal brand.
00:54:25But still, thank you for standing up for me.
00:54:29I just didn't appreciate your stepmom's attitude.
00:54:38Get the campaign ready.
00:54:41I want that jerk out, ASAP.
00:54:46Noah, hey.
00:54:49I need a favor.
00:54:52You're right.
00:54:55Joshua, Blue Diamond PR is already involved.
00:54:58What agency are we using?
00:55:01We're still deciding. Bids are open for this year's contract.
00:55:04Perfect.
00:55:07I have a plan.
00:55:11I'm offering the Gerber Corporation's annual PR budget.
00:55:14It's one of the largest in the industry.
00:55:17That's an enticing offer, Ms. Gerber.
00:55:20What do you ask of me in return?
00:55:23I want you to withdraw from any campaign against Joshua Lane.
00:55:26I don't mind. I'll cover the cancellation fee.
00:55:34You have a deal.
00:55:37The Gerber Corporation account is too good to pass up.
00:55:40There's a little more.
00:55:43I need you to spread the word.
00:55:46Any PR firm that goes against Joshua Lane
00:55:49will be blacklisted from the Gerber Corporation and our allies.
00:55:52No one in this industry will be stupid enough
00:55:55to fight against the Gerber Corporation.
00:55:58Wonderful.
00:56:01Looking forward to a fruitful partnership.
00:56:06I have evidence of Alex's scheme against you all.
00:56:09But don't worry, I've already taken care of it.
00:56:13I always knew Eleanor and Alex to be after my position.
00:56:16I just didn't expect Alex to be this bold.
00:56:19How do you know about this?
00:56:22Alex struck me as opportunistic.
00:56:25A smear campaign is the easiest way to sway the shareholders' opinion.
00:56:28And Eleanor's background in PR made this move predictable.
00:56:31You're more perceptive than I thought.
00:56:34Why are you helping me?
00:56:37Our family's alliance is crucial.
00:56:40Protecting you means protecting the Gerber Corporation.
00:56:43It's all business.
00:56:46Business, right.
00:56:49Well, in that case, I should help you with your beef with Katherine and Bradley, right?
00:56:54How did you know about that?
00:56:57Didn't expect me to enter into the marriage without doing background checks.
00:57:00I just don't get what the big deal about your ex is.
00:57:03I mean, he cheated on you. So what?
00:57:08She must be faking it to trap you.
00:57:12How dare you.
00:57:15You had no right to dig into my past like that.
00:57:18I can take care of myself.
00:57:23What just happened?
00:57:26To your new position as Senior VP.
00:57:31And it's all thanks to my help, of course.
00:57:34Absolutely. You're my lucky charm, honey.
00:57:42Imagine if I'd stayed with Mia.
00:57:45Poor and tireless. That's all she ever was.
00:57:48She's a joke. A stepping stone at best.
00:57:51With you by my side, we are unstoppable.
00:58:04Katherine's hospital is resisting our acquisition.
00:58:07Bradley, as the new Senior VP, is leading the pushback.
00:58:10Do they know I'm the CEO yet?
00:58:13No, as per your request.
00:58:15Perfect. Keep at it.
00:58:21Now how do I pull this off?
00:58:30There are gaps in Mia's medical record right after her breakup.
00:58:34These are from the Gerber Corporation's own hospital.
00:58:37Only someone higher up from within can access it.
00:58:46I want to know what happened to Mia during that gap, after the breakup.
00:58:49Even if I know, why would I tell you?
00:58:52Mia helped me, but unless I understand that part of the puzzle,
00:58:55I won't be able to return her favor.
00:58:58Do you care for her?
00:59:01You don't dislike her?
00:59:04No, Mia deserves someone who truly loves her.
00:59:07Not you.
00:59:09She's a grown woman. She knows what she wants.
00:59:12Nobody gets to tell her what she deserves. Especially not you.
00:59:22You can choose not to share the information,
00:59:25but you won't be helping her.
00:59:28Your choice.
00:59:33Alright, look.
00:59:36If you have to know, unfortunately,
00:59:39Mia had a miscarriage because of an accident involving Bradley Caffin.
00:59:59How are you feeling?
01:00:02It's none of your business.
01:00:05Not that you would know what that means.
01:00:08I'm sorry for overstepping and being insensitive.
01:00:11I learned about your miscarriage. I had no idea.
01:00:14You didn't know?
01:00:17That doesn't excuse my behavior. I apologize.
01:00:20I may have overreacted.
01:00:23You were hurting. That's understandable.
01:00:27So you're not a robot, like everyone says you are?
01:00:30Of course I'm not. Who says that?
01:00:33Everyone. Your family, your friends,
01:00:36your co-workers, enemies.
01:00:39I even heard the maids joking about it the other day.
01:00:42Fire them all.
01:00:45No, no. It's okay. They're allowed to joke.
01:00:48They've been doing a wonderful job.
01:00:51Besides, I think you should talk like this.
01:00:54It suits you.
01:00:57It's not funny.
01:01:00It's late.
01:01:03I'm going to bed.
01:01:06Okay. Goodnight.
01:01:14Talk like this.
01:01:25Go ahead with plan.
01:01:28Shorten stock of Katherine's company.
01:01:31I want to see them bleed.
01:01:38Mia, you need to see this.
01:01:41The stock of Katherine's hospital has been shortened dramatically.
01:01:44They're on the verge of bankruptcy.
01:01:47Just a week? How is this possible?
01:01:50Seems like a coordinated attack.
01:01:53I'm going to see this.
01:01:56Joshua.
01:02:02Did you short Katherine's stock?
01:02:05Yes, I did.
01:02:08Why?
01:02:11Strictly for business.
01:02:14To protect our family's alliances.
01:02:17Your enemies are my enemies now.
01:02:20I'm going to bed.
