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
00:00:12your father's business empire and assets worth over a billion dollars.
00:00:17I just need a signature from you. Oh, and a hundred and five million dollars
00:00:20in cash. Revenge!
00:00:27Let me hold on to you a bit for you, baby. You know, my whole life, I grew up in foster
00:00:34care, moving from place to place, and now I finally have a place that I can call home.
00:00:41It must feel 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?
00:00:58Well, we had a little help from James Thornton, the most powerful man in the Thornton family.
00:01:05Time for you to go back to your poor little country, sis.
00:01:08It's not U.S.C.I.S. The reviews were expired years ago. You're being
00:01:12decorated. What? No, there must be some mistake. Adrian,
00:01:16didn't you help me file my immigration paperwork? Oops. I guess I screwed up.
00:01:22What? Hey, baby.
00:01:26Hey. Adrian, are you cheating on me? With her?
00:01:30Choose the right side, babe. You'll never win against them.
00:01:33That's true. According to the terms of the will, non-citizens
00:01:38are not eligible to inherit the estate. Everything will pass to your next of kin,
00:01:43Lisa and Kristen Miller. You thought you could get rich overnight?
00:01:49Dreaming. Seriously?
00:01:51Bon voyage, abscess.
00:01:58The boss is searching. They're about to deport a woman named Jessica Miller.
00:02:03Jessica Miller? It's her.
00:02:15Oh, thank God you're alive. She's so beautiful and kind.
00:02:18The girl I've always dreamed of. She saved my life once. I owe her.
00:02:27Wait, wait, wait, wait. Jessica.
00:02:30Do I know you? She doesn't remember me.
00:02:38I'm Daniel. You're a lawyer. Just pretend we know each other.
00:02:42I can get you out of here. I spoke to the judge, and Miss Miller
00:02:46should be released immediately. We can't deport her.
00:02:50She is about to marry a U.S. citizen.
00:02:54He's a lucky guy. I am. I'll marry her.
00:03:03A fake marriage won't save her. Our marriage is real.
00:03:07Yeah, 100% real. Prove it, then.
00:03:17That's it? You call that a kiss?
00:03:31Need more proof, officer?
00:03:33Look, this guy is a lawyer to some of the most important families in town.
00:03:38And if you don't let her go, he'll make sure you lose your damn job.
00:03:42Fine, you can have her.
00:03:44Thank you, officer.
00:03:49Guys, I think we're good.
00:03:52It's not over.
00:03:56We'll be checking your marital status and conducting interviews.
00:03:59And there are a few very specific requirements you should know.
00:04:03Make sure you two are staying in the same house and sleeping in the same bed.
00:04:07Or it's game over.
00:04:10Well, thank you for the rescue.
00:04:17Oh, it's no problem.
00:04:20But, um, Daniel, would you marry me?
00:04:27Oh, Jessica, I've waited for this moment for five years.
00:04:30I mean, it would only be a contract marriage.
00:04:34But once I get my green card, I'll inherit my father's business empire,
00:04:39and I'll share half of it with you.
00:04:42Even your misunderstanding looks so cute. I only want you, Jessica.
00:04:47But before I get my green card,
00:04:50you're gonna have to help me deal with my stepsister and her mom.
00:04:54They're trying to get rid of me, and they've already stolen my fortune,
00:04:58and they made my mother disappear.
00:05:02Deal.
00:05:04What? That's it?
00:05:09This lily stands for loyalties and new beginnings.
00:05:13Something that I want with you.
00:05:15Now I know it's rushed.
00:05:18But I promise you, I will buy you a proper ring soon.
00:05:32From now on, let's make every Christmas our own.
00:05:35Filled with memories.
00:05:49You can't do this!
00:05:51Jess, it's okay. Just wait here. I'll handle it.
00:05:56What?
00:05:58Why are you helping that girl?
00:06:00Kristen Miller is our ally, and she wants her the hell out of this picture.
00:06:04It's too late, Dad. We already got married.
00:06:07Are you insane?
00:06:09Did you forget you're supposed to marry Ashley?
00:06:14Daniel Thornton.
00:06:17My mother is gone because of you?
00:06:19Well, we had a little help from James Thornton,
00:06:22the most powerful man in the Thornton family.
00:06:26Wait. I recognize that face.
00:06:29From the newspaper, that was James Thornton.
00:06:32From the Thornton family, the family responsible for my mother's disappearance.
00:06:40Stop telling me what I can and cannot do.
00:06:42She saved my life. I owe it to her.
00:06:44Grow the hell up, Daniel.
00:06:46You need to remember your position as the heir to our family.
00:06:50And you need to divorce that girl.
00:06:52Now, I'm doing this to clean your mess up.
00:06:55Just leave us alone.
00:07:04Sorry about that.
00:07:06Is your name Daniel Thornton?
00:07:10Yeah.
00:07:12The Thornton family are responsible for the disappearance of my mother.
00:07:17I have been searching for her my entire life.
00:07:21Yes. I can explain.
00:07:23I'm not married.
00:07:25Wait, wait, wait. Jess, Jess.
00:07:27I'm not who you think I am.
00:07:29I have nothing to do with that family.
00:07:31Oh, really? Because your name is right here on the marriage certificate.
00:07:35I share the last name, isn't it?
00:07:37I am not one of the Thorntons.
00:07:39I can't be just an ordinary girl.
00:07:42Really? Well, I don't believe you.
00:07:44Really? Well, I don't believe you.
00:07:45I saw you talking to James Thornton.
00:07:48Is he your father?
00:07:52Is he your father?
00:07:53No, he's not my father.
00:07:55He was threatening to drive you out of the country.
00:07:57And I was not going to have anything to do with it.
00:07:59Jess, I'm on your side.
00:08:01Cheers. May it be full of surprises.
00:08:04Ho, ho, ho.
00:08:06I have a gift for you.
00:08:08Jessica, you have inherited this mansion.
00:08:11Along with your father's business empire and assets worth over a billion dollars.
00:08:15I just need a signature from you.
00:08:17Oh, and a hundred and five million dollars in cash.
00:08:24We're, we're rich!
00:08:26Let me hold on to you a bit for you, baby.
00:08:28Yeah.
00:08:29You know, my whole life,
00:08:31I grew up in foster care.
00:08:34Moving from place to place and

00:08:59The most powerful man in the Thornton family.
00:09:03Time for you to go back to your poor little country, sis.
00:09:06It's not USCIS.
00:09:08USCIS.
00:09:09Your visa expired years ago.
00:09:11You're being deported.
00:09:12What? No, there must, must be some mistake.
00:09:14Adrian, didn't you help me file my immigration paperwork?
00:09:18Whoops.
00:09:19I guess I screwed up.
00:09:21What?
00:09:23Hey, baby.
00:09:24Hey.
00:09:25Adrian, are you cheating on me?
00:09:27With her?
00:09:28Choose the right side, babe.
00:09:30You'll never win against them.
00:09:32That's true.
00:09:33Um, according to the terms of the will,
00:09:35non-citizens are not eligible to inherit the estate.
00:09:39Everything will pass to your next of kin,
00:09:41Lisa Ann Kristen Miller.
00:09:44You want to get rich overnight?
00:09:47Keep dreaming.
00:09:48Seriously?
00:09:49Bon voyage, abscess.

00:15:26Wait, wait, wait.
00:15:27Jess, Jess.
00:15:28I'm not who you think I am.
00:15:30I have nothing to do with that family.
00:15:31Oh, really?
00:15:32Because your name is right here
00:15:33on the marriage certificate.
00:15:36I share the last names, don't I?
00:15:38I am not one of them.
00:15:40Thornton is a common man.
00:15:41Just an ordinary guy.
00:15:42Really?
00:15:43Well, I don't believe you.
00:15:44I saw you talking
00:15:45to James Thornton.
00:15:47Is he your father?
00:15:51Is he your father?
00:15:52No, he's not my father.
00:15:53He was threatening
00:15:54to drive you out of the country
00:15:55and I was not going to have
00:15:56anything to do with it.
00:15:57Jess.
00:15:58I'm on your side.
00:16:00You're not
00:16:01one of them.
00:16:03I'm sorry.
00:16:06It's okay.
00:16:07Don't worry about it.
00:16:11Well, you have a nice apartment.
00:16:15Whoa.
00:16:17Is that your Labrador?
00:16:19It looks exactly like mine.
00:16:21I got mine as a Christmas present
00:16:22when I was nine.
00:16:23No way.
00:16:24I got mine as a Christmas present
00:16:25when I was nine.
00:16:26That's crazy.
00:16:31Jess, we're going to have to sleep
00:16:32in the same room together
00:16:33just in case immigration ambush us.
00:16:35Yeah, but are you sure
00:16:37you're okay sleeping on the carpet?
00:16:39I mean, you've done so much
00:16:41for me already and I just...
00:16:42Jess, please, I insist.
00:16:44We made a deal, remember?
00:16:46I also want to thank you
00:16:49for giving me the chance
00:16:50to get rich.
00:16:52It's okay, Daniel.
00:17:09I'm sorry.
00:17:25Is she spying on us?
00:17:27No.
00:17:29No, no, no, no.
00:17:30I was just passing by and just...
00:17:34Do you need anything?
00:17:36I was joking.
00:17:37Yeah, could you pass me the towel?
00:17:40It's just hanging out next to the door.
00:17:43Yeah, sure, sure.
00:17:48Thanks.
00:17:58Oh my God.
00:17:59What?
00:18:00I just got fired.
00:18:01What?
00:18:04Wait, Jess, let me go with you.
00:18:21Sam, please, don't fire me.
00:18:23I'm sorry, Jess,
00:18:24but your immigration issue
00:18:27put us in a tough spot.
00:18:29I worked for this company for years.
00:18:32I'm sorry, Jess.
00:18:33There's nothing I can do.
00:18:36I'm sorry.
00:18:42Look who's here.
00:18:44Someone who just got fired.
00:18:47This suits you.
00:18:52It was you.
00:18:54I should have known you were behind this.
00:18:56I'm not going to let you stay here
00:18:57and ruin things.
00:18:58I'm going to take away
00:18:59everything you have.
00:19:00I have, sister.
00:19:06You just made a big mistake, sir.
00:19:08Who are you?
00:19:09My name is Daniel Thornton,
00:19:11son of James Thornton,
00:19:13the chairman of Thornton Enterprise.
00:19:16Oh, Mr. Thornton.
00:19:19Welcome.
00:19:21What brings you here?
00:19:24Well, I have some good news for you.
00:19:27Jessica Miller,
00:19:29has proposed a billion dollar deal.
00:19:32Take a look.
00:19:43Oh, my God.
00:19:49It's real.
00:19:51Absolutely.
00:19:52With her hard work and dedication,
00:19:54she's made this possible.
00:19:56It's a real shame
00:19:57to lose such a valuable employee.
00:19:59Oh, Mr. Thornton,
00:20:02I have made a huge mistake.
00:20:06Jessica will stay.
00:20:09Good.
00:20:11And make sure nobody knows
00:20:14we had this conversation.
00:20:19Jessica, you should have told me.
00:20:24What are you talking about, Sam?
00:20:27Jessica, you secured a huge deal
00:20:29for the company.
00:20:32Did you not just fire her?
00:20:34I changed my mind.
00:20:36Jessica's staying.
00:20:38Actually, she's being promoted
00:20:41to sales manager.
00:20:43Can't afford to lose someone
00:20:44as valuable as like her.
00:20:46Great.
00:20:48Thanks, Sam.
00:20:50This is not over.
00:20:56I can't believe it.
00:20:57Jessica kept her job
00:20:58and she gets promoted.
00:21:00Don't worry, Lisa.
00:21:02I just spoke with James Thornton
00:21:03and he had the lawyer
00:21:04change the will in our favor.
00:21:07Jessica will get nothing.
00:21:09Oh, my God.
00:21:11That's fantastic.
00:21:21No way.
00:21:29Jessica, how's work?
00:21:32Did you get your job back?
00:21:34Daniel, I need a lawyer.
00:21:42Wow.
00:21:44Look who decided to show up.
00:21:46Too bad for you, Jess.
00:21:48Too bad for you, Jess.
00:21:49Turns out daddy's will
00:21:50left you nothing.
00:21:52I knew all along
00:21:53Robert wouldn't leave anything
00:21:55for this little,
00:21:56pathetic, bastard child.
00:21:59You are out of luck.
00:22:01Well, that's a lie.
00:22:02You showed me the will
00:22:04and I signed the documents.
00:22:07I'm sorry, Jessica.
00:22:09I've just discovered
00:22:10a revised will
00:22:11that supports Kristen
00:22:12and Lisa's claims.
00:22:15So, who is this?
00:22:18He's my lawyer
00:22:19and a damn good one.
00:22:21Oh.
00:22:22You know, Jess,
00:22:23I didn't realize
00:22:24you had enough money
00:22:25to pay for a fancy little lawyer.
00:22:27You sleep with him?
00:22:29Patrick, can I have a word
00:22:31with you outside?
00:22:33Talk all you want.
00:22:34It won't change anything.
00:22:44All right, Patrick.
00:22:45I'm gonna keep this short and sweet.
00:22:47I know you changed the will
00:22:48to favor Kristen and Lisa.
00:22:50I know what you're talking about,
00:22:51Mr. Thornton.
00:22:53The revised will's solid.
00:22:54Ted found an email exchange
00:22:56with my father.
00:22:57Here, take a look.
00:22:59You've been caught, Patrick.
00:23:01Honor of the will,
00:23:02I'll report you
00:23:03to the Bar Association.
00:23:04You'll lose your license
00:23:05and any chance
00:23:06of practicing law again.
00:23:07That goes against
00:23:08your father's wishes.
00:23:10You don't understand
00:23:11the position you put me in.
00:23:12I'll deal with my father.
00:23:13Don't you worry about that.
00:23:15You just worry about
00:23:17doing the right thing.
00:23:23Um, this revised will's a fake.
00:23:25The original won't stand.
00:23:27What the hell are you doing?
00:23:28He's doing the right thing.
00:23:32Jessica, you've gotten
00:23:34your inheritance back.
00:23:35Congratulations.
00:23:37Oh, my God.
00:23:40Patrick, do what you are
00:23:42supposed to do or James
00:23:44will make sure you face
00:23:46the consequences.
00:23:48Don't listen to him, Patrick.
00:23:50I'll deal with James Thornton.
00:23:52Who the hell do you think you are?
00:23:54James Thornton is one of
00:23:56the most powerful men
00:23:57in this town.
00:23:58I sure can.
00:24:00Isn't that right, Patrick?
00:24:01Yes.
00:24:03The original will stands.
00:24:04No, you are crazy.
00:24:06No, I'm not.
00:24:07According to the original will,
00:24:09Jessica stands to inherit
00:24:10this mansion.
00:24:11Kristen, you're out.
00:24:13I think you two should leave.
00:24:15You're a home wrecker,
00:24:17just like your mother.
00:24:19I will not allow violence.
00:24:21I didn't come here
00:24:23to argue over a house
00:24:25and assets.
00:24:27I came here to be recognized
00:24:29as an actual member of this family.
00:24:31It was easy for you to say you're getting everything.
00:24:33You don't know how lucky you are, Lisa.
00:24:35You grew up with a father
00:24:37who loved you.
00:24:38I had none.
00:24:39And you took my mother
00:24:41away from me and I still
00:24:43don't know where she is!
00:24:45You two don't deserve this mansion.
00:24:47And I would rather
00:24:49give it away to charity
00:24:51than see the two of you living here.
00:24:59You two should pack your things up.
00:25:01You have one week to leave this house.
00:25:09What the hell were you thinking?
00:25:11Sabotaging my plan?
00:25:13I was just doing the right thing.
00:25:15The right thing?
00:25:17Going against me?
00:25:19Kristen Miller has got no power anymore.
00:25:21Her game is over.
00:25:23I'm sure you didn't come all this way
00:25:25just to argue with me.
00:25:27So what do you want?
00:25:29I just want Jessica to get her mom back.
00:25:33Interesting.
00:25:35Interesting.
00:25:39What's that mean for me?
00:25:41Once Jessica gets her mom back,
00:25:43I'll do whatever you want.
00:25:45Whatever I want?
00:25:47Like what exactly?
00:25:49I'll marry Ashley.
00:25:51You'll marry Ashley?
00:25:53Yeah.
00:25:55You're willing to do that?
00:25:57Yeah, I am.
00:25:59But only if she's reunited
00:26:01with her mother.
00:26:03Okay.
00:26:05Deal.
00:26:07I'll make the arrangements.
00:26:09So you're really in love with this one, huh?
00:26:11Yeah.
00:26:13I am.
00:26:15Okay.
00:26:17I sure hope she's well.
00:26:19She is.
00:26:23What's wrong?
00:26:25We have
00:26:27a guest.
00:26:29Mr. Thornton.
00:26:31Good to see you again.
00:26:33Interview time.
00:26:35Great.
00:26:37When did you two meet?
00:26:39We met at a friend's party
00:26:41two years ago.
00:26:43What do you say, Jessica?
00:26:45Oh, yeah.
00:26:47Yeah.
00:26:49Interesting.
00:26:51And when did you decide to get married?
00:26:53Eight months ago.
00:26:55Six months or eight months?
00:26:57Which one is it?
00:26:59Sorry.
00:27:01I'm always getting mixed up.
00:27:03Sure.
00:27:05Easy mistake to make.
00:27:07And what's your anniversary date?
00:27:09March 15th.
00:27:11March 15th?
00:27:13All right.
00:27:19That's it?
00:27:21Yes, Mr. Thornton.
00:27:23I have everything I need.
00:27:25I'll report back to the judges.
00:27:27Oh, wait.
00:27:31How did we do in there?
00:27:35It was
00:27:37pretty bad.
00:27:39Look.
00:27:41I'm the son of James Thornton.
00:27:43I know who you are.
00:27:45Okay.
00:27:49You want to bribe me?
00:27:51Yes.
00:27:53I can't be bribed.
00:27:55Here's $1 million.
00:28:01$2 million.
00:28:03Right.
00:28:07$3 million.
00:28:09It's tempting,
00:28:11but like I said, you can't bribe me.
00:28:13Please. Can you just give us
00:28:15one more week to prepare?
00:28:17I really want to be with this woman.
00:28:19She means the world to me.
00:28:21She saved my life.
00:28:23I don't want to take your money, but I'll give you one week.
00:28:25Make it count.
00:28:29Next time, I want to see some genuine affection between you two.
00:28:31If anything seems a bit off, your game's up.
00:28:33Of course.
00:28:35And
00:28:37one more thing.
00:28:39I can tell you two haven't had sex yet.
00:28:41I'm that good, Mr. Daniel.
00:28:43Don't try and fool me.
00:28:49She gave us another chance.
00:28:51Oh, thank God.
00:28:53We have one week to get our story straight.
00:28:57Daniel, you've been
00:28:59very, very helpful today.
00:29:17Now,
00:29:19we're going to make our first Christmas special.
00:29:21So, I did a little digging
00:29:23and I found this.
00:29:25This tree is amazing.
00:29:31What happened?
00:29:35Let me have a look.
00:29:49Yes.
00:30:01Um,
00:30:03I have
00:30:05a festive
00:30:07gift
00:30:09for you two.
00:30:15Wow.
00:30:17Jess,
00:30:19you look gorgeous.
00:30:25And then,
00:30:27I told him that's not how you negotiate.
00:30:29You did it.
00:30:47Yes.
00:31:13What's going to be wrong?
00:31:15Maybe not.
00:31:33And that
00:31:35is how you
00:31:37negotiate.
00:31:39You're a loving fan.
00:31:45Meow.
00:31:53I'm stuck.
00:31:55Hold on, I got this.
00:31:57Oh.
00:32:15Oh.
00:32:21Oh.
00:32:31Oh.
00:32:39Oh.
00:32:45Oh.
00:32:53What watch looks familiar?
00:32:57No, I've seen this before.
00:32:59The, uh, Daniel magazine.
00:33:01That looks like one of those, um,
00:33:05Toronto family
00:33:07watches.
00:33:09Is it real?
00:33:11Uh, no.
00:33:13It's fake.
00:33:19You wear a fake watch?
00:33:21Yeah.
00:33:31I'm so happy, Jess.
00:33:37There's also something
00:33:39I need to tell you about your mom.
00:33:43Yes.
00:33:55Oh my god.
00:33:57Did I just sleep with Daniel last night?
00:33:59I told him
00:34:01it would only be a contract marriage.
00:34:03Oh.
00:34:11Morning.
00:34:13This is the most beautiful morning that I've ever had.
00:34:15Daniel, I'm
00:34:17I'm so
00:34:19sorry about last night.
00:34:21It wasn't supposed to happen
00:34:23and I promise it will never
00:34:25happen again.
00:34:27She didn't mean it.
00:34:29Oh, Jessica.
00:34:31Last night was amazing.
00:34:35Yeah, Jess.
00:34:37I get it.
00:34:41It was a one-time thing.
00:34:43Yeah, just like
00:34:45just a one-time thing.
00:34:49Anyway, it's
00:34:51your big day today.
00:34:53You're the new CEO of the
00:34:55Miller Empire.
00:34:57Thank you for the reminder.
00:35:01Now that you mention it,
00:35:03I'm really scared.
00:35:05Oh, no, Jess. I
00:35:07didn't mean it like that.
00:35:09What I was meant to say is
00:35:13I'm gonna help you.
00:35:19I don't know what to do, Mother.
00:35:21That bitch is kicking us out.
00:35:23We still have a chance.
00:35:25That bastard child needs a unanimous vote
00:35:27from the board to be chosen as the next CEO.
00:35:29So we just need a board
00:35:31member to back us up.
00:35:33I will call Richard. Everyone
00:35:35respects Richard's vote and I will make
00:35:37sure he doesn't vote for her.
00:35:39And I'll dig up all the dirt I can find on her.
00:35:41You go, girl.
00:35:53These clothes are
00:35:55beautiful, but
00:35:57very
00:35:59expensive.
00:36:01This one, that is
00:36:03$9,000.
00:36:05Jess, don't worry about
00:36:07it. It's on me.
00:36:09Look at it as
00:36:11my first gift to my wife.
00:36:13Daniel, I can't let you pay for
00:36:15this. Look, Jess, you're
00:36:17gonna be a CEO, which means
00:36:19you're gonna look the part. Trust me.
00:36:21It's an investment.
00:36:23Mr. Thornton,
00:36:25welcome back. How can I assist you today?
00:36:27Come here a lot?
00:36:29Uh, no. Well, of course
00:36:31Mr. Thornton owns this store.
00:36:33Uh, Jess,
00:36:35why don't you try this one on?
00:36:37You'll look great in it.
00:36:41Well,
00:36:43Jess, you look
00:36:45amazing.
00:36:47You think so? Yeah.
00:36:49This is exactly
00:36:51what a CEO would wear. Absolutely.
00:36:53Great choice.
00:36:55We'll take this one.
00:36:57Something on your mind?
00:36:59Well, it's probably
00:37:01nothing, but it's just that
00:37:03clerk seemed very fond of you.
00:37:05Oh, um,
00:37:07being friendly is a part of my job.
00:37:09Okay.
00:37:17So that's how you got your lawyer,
00:37:19huh?
00:37:21Now that you mention it,
00:37:23maybe she was a little friendly.
00:37:25But we got a discount.
00:37:27Show off.
00:37:37What a slut.
00:37:41Trust me, Jess.
00:37:43You can do this. Yeah, but what if
00:37:45they don't accept me? They will.
00:37:47Trust me. Just speak from the heart.
00:37:49Show your true self.
00:37:51Look at you two
00:37:53little lovebirds.
00:37:59Ted,
00:38:01can we talk about this later? Okay.
00:38:03You go in.
00:38:05I'll meet you in there soon, okay?
00:38:13Good luck in there, sis.
00:38:15You're gonna need it.
00:38:17You're gonna need it.
00:38:19You don't have the votes.
00:38:23I know my background doesn't seem
00:38:25very typical of a CEO,
00:38:27but I built myself from the bottom up here.
00:38:29Miller Corporation
00:38:31is a leader
00:38:33in tech
00:38:35and services, reaching industries
00:38:37from healthcare to energy.
00:38:39We have over
00:38:4110,000 employees
00:38:43worldwide
00:38:45and I worked hard to build this company
00:38:47from the ground up, and I was one of them.
00:38:49I know them.
00:38:51And I believe that I can help
00:38:53lead this company to become
00:38:55everyone's company.
00:38:57Let's proceed to the vote.
00:38:59All in favor?
00:39:03Robert lost his damn
00:39:05mind. He picked his secret
00:39:07child to be the CEO
00:39:09only because of his guilty conscience.
00:39:11Richard, if I may...
00:39:13We're not done talking.
00:39:15You can't lead us.
00:39:17And you're not getting my vote.
00:39:19Richard, if I may speak...
00:39:21Go ahead,
00:39:23but I won't change my mind.
00:39:27Sorry for interrupting everyone,
00:39:29but I have something important to share
00:39:31with you all today.
00:39:33Who the hell are you?
00:39:35Well, Richard, I'm the person who's going to expose you.
00:39:37What did you just say?
00:39:39How do I say this?
00:39:41You're a sex pervert.
00:39:43What?
00:39:47You see, everyone,
00:39:49this file contains
00:39:51multiple sexual harassment lawsuits
00:39:53against Richard over the past
00:39:5530 years.
00:39:57Some of them also have
00:39:59ongoing lawsuits.
00:40:01They're all allegations, and they've all been settled.
00:40:03I'm innocent.
00:40:05I've also got in contact with some of the victims, and they're willing to come forward
00:40:07and testify.
00:40:09We have not finished yet.
00:40:11You're also stealing money from the company.
00:40:13And we have the financial records to prove it.
00:40:21The evidence is clear.
00:40:23He's guilty.
00:40:25Okay, then.
00:40:27Let's all vote for Richard Donald's
00:40:29immediate suspension.
00:40:31All in favor?
00:40:33We have
00:40:3515 votes.
00:40:37The board has decided
00:40:39Richard Donald is officially removed
00:40:41from his position.
00:40:43Security, escort him out
00:40:45immediately.
00:40:47I know my way.
00:40:51And
00:40:53all in favor of appointing
00:40:55Jessica Miller as the new CEO.
00:41:13I'm sorry I was late.
00:41:15I had to make sure I had enough evidence to nail it.
00:41:17No, don't be sorry, Daniel.
00:41:19That was so worth the wait.
00:41:23This is not over.
00:41:25You'll see.
00:41:27How's packing going, Lisa?
00:41:29You're about to be evicted soon.
00:41:33She won
00:41:35again, that bitch.
00:41:37I know, it's so unfair.
00:41:39Do we have a guest?
00:41:41Lisa, honey, I've been trying to reach you.
00:41:43Why haven't you returned my calls?
00:41:45I've been busy.
00:41:47Busy.
00:41:49Dealing with Jessica.
00:41:51How did you know?
00:41:53Oh, I know. And I think I know how to help you take it down.
00:41:55Again.
00:41:57No use to me anymore, Adrian.
00:41:59I only needed you to help me get rid of Jessica.
00:42:01To the new
00:42:03CEO of the Miller Empire.
00:42:07Well, I couldn't have done it without you, Danny.
00:42:09I also have another
00:42:11Christmas surprise for you.
00:42:13Who are you calling?
00:42:17Is it?
00:42:19Yes, Jess.
00:42:21It's your mother, Clara.
00:42:23Oh my God, Mom!
00:42:25Oh, Jessica, you're a grown woman now.
00:42:27The Miller family threatened to kill you, Jess.
00:42:29I had no option but to vanish.
00:42:33Oh, Mom, it's okay.
00:42:35It's okay.
00:42:37You didn't do anything wrong.
00:42:39I'll bring you back into the country, I promise.
00:42:41Daniel, how did you find her?
00:42:43I have a few pal friends.
00:42:45They did me a favor.
00:42:47But I'll leave you two alone.
00:42:59Two more, please.
00:43:03Daniel.
00:43:05Adrian.
00:43:07Long time no see, buddy.
00:43:09Oh my God, how long has it been?
00:43:11Ten years.
00:43:13Oh my God.
00:43:15The last time I must have seen you was
00:43:17law school.
00:43:19Yep.
00:43:21Go Reds.
00:43:23What are you doing here?
00:43:25Just in town
00:43:27to run some errands.
00:43:29Just want to come in for a quick bite.
00:43:31Nice, man, nice.
00:43:33I saw your date earlier.
00:43:35She looks pretty.
00:43:37Yeah, my wife.
00:43:39Your wife?
00:43:41Yeah, Jess.
00:43:43You're married?
00:43:45Yes.
00:43:47Come on, let's go say hi.
00:43:49Come and say hello.
00:43:51It's good to see you.
00:43:53Good to see you too, man.
00:43:55Hi.
00:44:01I don't want to see him.
00:44:05I don't want to see him.
00:44:09You two know each other?
00:44:11Yes, Daniel.
00:44:13I was her first boyfriend.
00:44:17Come on, Jess.
00:44:19Don't you miss me?
00:44:21I don't want to see you anymore.
00:44:23I still love you, Jess.
00:44:25No, I don't.
00:44:29I think you should leave, Adrian.
00:44:31Okay, Daniel.
00:44:33Relax. Now.
00:44:39I'm leaving.
00:44:45She knows she's lying.
00:44:47Boss,
00:44:49Adrian Wesley
00:44:51now represents
00:44:53the East Side Christian Mirror.
00:44:55They want to test the will.
00:44:57I should have known.
00:44:59What else?
00:45:01Adrian also used me, Jessica.
00:45:03Actually, he's the one who sabotaged
00:45:05Jessica's immigration paperwork.
00:45:07It caused all this trouble.
00:45:11That son of a bitch.
00:45:13We need to win this war.
00:45:15Do whatever it takes.
00:45:23Daniel?
00:45:25Sorry.
00:45:27Did I wake you?
00:45:29No, can...
00:45:31Can you join me in bed, please?
00:45:37You sure?
00:45:39I just...
00:45:41I wanted to apologize
00:45:43for earlier.
00:45:45The restaurant.
00:45:49I got a bit carried away.
00:45:51Jess, you don't need to apologize.
00:45:53Adrian's an asshole.
00:45:55He's just trying to do it
00:45:57to get under your skin.
00:45:59I did care for Adrian once,
00:46:01but he just destroyed
00:46:03everything we had.
00:46:05I want you to know
00:46:07that I'm here
00:46:09because of you.
00:46:11And you're
00:46:13the only one
00:46:15who I love.
00:46:17No one else.
00:46:29I love you too, Jess.
00:46:31And I'm not going anywhere.
00:46:37Morning, husband.
00:46:39Morning, wife.
00:46:41Are you ready for your big days
00:46:43and you see you?
00:46:45If only you were with me.
00:47:07Hey.
00:47:17You're gonna do great today.
00:47:25Jess?
00:47:27Here's your coffee.
00:47:31What's wrong?
00:47:33Oh, it's just, it's this job.
00:47:35It's all so new to me.
00:47:37Okay, calm down.
00:47:39Remember, you're the CEO,
00:47:41which means you're the boss.
00:47:43Yeah, but I don't know
00:47:45how to be a boss.
00:47:47Hey, Jess.
00:47:49Look at you sitting in the big chair now.
00:47:51Oh, Gina,
00:47:53I am so happy
00:47:55you're here.
00:47:57You must be Daniel.
00:47:59Jessica's been
00:48:01talking about you.
00:48:03Please.
00:48:05I'm flattered.
00:48:07I really wish you could be here with me, G.
00:48:09It's exhausting.
00:48:11At least you have a job, Jess.
00:48:13I've been looking for work for the past two months.
00:48:15Jess?
00:48:19Do you like Jenna being here?
00:48:23Of course.
00:48:25We've been besties since forever.
00:48:27Yeah, what kind of question is that?
00:48:29Well, why don't you use
00:48:31your CEO power
00:48:33and hire Gianna?
00:48:35Oh, I don't, I know
00:48:37what you mean. I don't understand.
00:48:39How would
00:48:41you like
00:48:43to come work
00:48:45for me? Of course.
00:48:47Okay, then.
00:48:49My first
00:48:51order as CEO,
00:48:53Gianna,
00:48:55you are hired as my
00:48:57personal assistant.
00:48:59Oh, my God, Jess, thank you so much.
00:49:01See?
00:49:03Being a boss is easy.
00:49:05You can do whatever you want.
00:49:13Oh, my God.
00:49:15What's wrong?
00:49:17The company's stock prices are
00:49:19dropping like crazy. What is happening?
00:49:21This isn't good.
00:49:23The stock's getting down.
00:49:25Wow, wow, wow.
00:49:27Looks like
00:49:29things aren't going so well.
00:49:31What did you do, Lisa? I asked Richard
00:49:33and some of the other investors
00:49:35to sell their stocks.
00:49:37The board members are not going to be happy
00:49:39about the stock prices, Jessica.
00:49:41What do you want?
00:49:43Resign as CEO
00:49:45or I will destroy this company.
00:49:47No way.
00:49:49Okay.
00:49:51Then I will destroy this company.
00:49:53Jessica, the board members are asking
00:49:55to meet with you.
00:49:57They're angry.
00:50:03What are you going to do, Jess?
00:50:05Okay, I'll meet with the board.
00:50:07Wait, Jess.
00:50:09Don't go. Take a seat.
00:50:11What is it?
00:50:13Lisa,
00:50:15are you sure the stock prices are going down?
00:50:17Because to me,
00:50:19they seem to be going up and up.
00:50:21That's impossible.
00:50:23A billion dollars?
00:50:25I guess anything's possible
00:50:27these days.
00:50:29God damn it!
00:50:31God, she's annoying.
00:50:37You must be my lucky star.
00:50:45Daniel.
00:50:47Gianna.
00:50:49I know who you are, Daniel.
00:50:51You're the son of James Thornton.
00:50:53How did you find out?
00:50:55My identity is meant to be a secret.
00:50:57I used to work for your father.
00:50:59Please don't tell Jess.
00:51:01I'll pay you. How much do you want?
00:51:03I don't want your money.
00:51:05I care for my friend.
00:51:07Actually, your father fired me
00:51:09because I tried to help Jessica.
00:51:11I'm sorry, Gianna.
00:51:13It's okay.
00:51:15I just want to know why.
00:51:17She hates my family.
00:51:19I don't care.
00:51:21She hates your family, but
00:51:23she loves you.
00:51:25I can see that.
00:51:27You really think so?
00:51:29Yes.
00:51:31I love her too.
00:51:33She's the best thing that's ever happened to me.
00:51:35That's good to hear.
00:51:37Please protect her.
00:51:39Daniel.
00:51:47Daniel.
00:51:49It's my mom.
00:51:51Adrian threatened her.
00:51:57Adrian threatened my mom on the phone.
00:51:59He said he was going to block her
00:52:01from entering the country.
00:52:03What should we do?
00:52:05Jess.
00:52:07Don't worry about it.
00:52:09I'm going to make sure your mom gets here safely.
00:52:25Ted.
00:52:27I need you to make sure Jessica's mom
00:52:29gets here safely.
00:52:31Book her on the first flight out tomorrow.
00:52:33Got it, boss.
00:52:35Good.
00:52:43Jess has been taken care of.
00:52:45Your mom's going to be here the day after tomorrow.
00:52:47Thank you, Daniel.
00:52:51But I'm
00:52:53still scared.
00:52:55I just need a day off.
00:52:57I love the sound of that.
00:52:59Would you have mine?
00:53:01I was thinking.
00:53:05I want to buy a house.
00:53:15So?
00:53:19Do you like this place?
00:53:21It's amazing.
00:53:23But, Jess, I appreciate the gesture.
00:53:25But you don't need to buy me a house.
00:53:29No, no.
00:53:31I insist.
00:53:33You've done so much to help me.
00:53:35Besides, we can live together
00:53:37here.
00:53:39Hi.
00:53:41Your father is here.
00:53:43Are you meeting him here?
00:53:47Well,
00:53:49I've never met your parents.
00:53:53So I'm pretty excited to meet an in-law.
00:53:57Oh, is that him?
00:53:59Come on, let's go say hi.
00:54:01Jess, wait.
00:54:03Wait, wait, wait.
00:54:07I might not have
00:54:09told my dad about you and our marriage.
00:54:11Why?
00:54:13Because
00:54:15he has a heart condition.
00:54:17I think it's best you stay here.
00:54:19Okay.
00:54:21I'll just
00:54:23be here then.
00:54:25Good.
00:54:31Dad.
00:54:33Come on.
00:54:35Daniel, what the hell?
00:54:37Jessica's here. She can't see her face.
00:54:39Don't take them off.
00:54:41I want to talk to you about Ashley, Daniel.
00:54:47Why hasn't Daniel told his father
00:54:49about me and our wedding?
00:54:51Ashley? Really?
00:54:53Not today?
00:54:55And what is this shirt
00:54:57you're wearing?
00:54:59And this cherry you're wearing?
00:55:01I
00:55:03said it makes me look more happy.
00:55:07And I vote you off.
00:55:09And don't go
00:55:11changing our subject. I want to discuss
00:55:13our agreement. I give you Clara
00:55:15and you marry Ashley.
00:55:21Why does he look so
00:55:23nervous?
00:55:25Am I not good enough?
00:55:29Do we have to talk about this
00:55:31right now? I held up my
00:55:33end of the bargain, Daniel.
00:55:35I want this deal done now.
00:55:37Actually, Clara isn't safe yet.
00:55:39Lisa Miller might try
00:55:41sabotaging everything.
00:55:43This is why you don't mess with the
00:55:45Miller family. You should have left it alone.
00:55:47All I'm asking is just a few more
00:55:49days. Ashley is coming
00:55:51to town in a few days.
00:55:53What?
00:55:55Jess!
00:55:57Jess!
00:56:01This is Jess.
00:56:03Jess, this is Dad.
00:56:05You can call him Jimmy.
00:56:07Jimmy?
00:56:11I'm Jimmy, sweetie.
00:56:13It's lovely to meet you, Jimmy.
00:56:15And can I just say, that is a
00:56:17lovely Hawaiian shirt.
00:56:19It really, really suits you.
00:56:21Well, thank you, Jessica.
00:56:23It's one I'm fond of.
00:56:25So,
00:56:27who is Ashley?
00:56:29I heard you guys talking about her earlier.
00:56:31Oh, she's
00:56:33just an old family
00:56:35friend.
00:56:37They grew up and went to law school
00:56:39together.
00:56:41And she had Daniel's first
00:56:43kiss.
00:56:45Her wedding is
00:56:47approaching soon, and
00:56:49I'd like Daniel to attend.
00:56:51Reminiscing
00:56:53about the good old days.
00:56:55No, it's fine. Honestly, it's lovely to hear about
00:56:57Daniel's childhood and more about his life.
00:56:59You bastard child!
00:57:05Well, well.
00:57:07What do we have here?
00:57:09You think you can afford
00:57:11this place?
00:57:13You're about to lose this battle
00:57:15and be out on the streets soon.
00:57:17Who's this clown?
00:57:19Looks like he belongs in a circus.
00:57:21How dare you, Krista!
00:57:23How do you know my name?
00:57:25And don't you dare call me by my first name.
00:57:27That's enough!
00:57:31Don't talk to my father like that.
00:57:37He's your father.
00:57:39How does it feel to be a father
00:57:41of such a loser?
00:57:43Don't talk to my family
00:57:45like that.
00:57:47Your family?
00:57:49Your family suck, Jessica.
00:57:51Especially your mother.
00:57:53The home-wrecking
00:57:55tramp.
00:57:57A whore.
00:58:05Your family suck, Jessica.
00:58:07Especially your mother.
00:58:09The home-wrecking
00:58:11tramp.
00:58:13A whore.
00:58:15A whore.
00:58:17Damn!
00:58:21How dare you
00:58:23slap me?
00:58:25That is enough, Krista.
00:58:27You're not gonna wear a hat.
00:58:33Ladies, you need to leave
00:58:35now.
00:58:37You can't throw us out. We're buyers.
00:58:39We're not going anywhere.
00:58:41The owner of this property
00:58:43I will consider it.
00:58:47You will regret this.
00:58:51I've heard that a thousand times.
00:58:53Now leave.
00:59:03Thank you, Jessica.
00:59:05You stood up for me.
00:59:07Well, we're family, Jimmy.
00:59:09It's what I'm supposed to do.
00:59:13Well,
00:59:15I appreciate it.
00:59:17You're a nice girl.
00:59:19You found a good wife, son.
00:59:23Dad,
00:59:25about Ashley's wedding,
00:59:27I don't think I'm gonna be able to make it.
00:59:29I'll look into it.
00:59:31I'll speak to her about it.
00:59:33Oh, no, no, no. Daniel can still attend.
00:59:35It's...
00:59:37Jess, I just wanna focus on you and I.
00:59:39I'm not the jealous type.
00:59:41Plus, I don't want you to miss
00:59:43your first crush's wedding.
00:59:47You decide, Daniel.
00:59:49There's a long party.
00:59:51You two wanna come?
00:59:53It's in three hours.
00:59:55Yeah.
00:59:57Dad, we'll go.
00:59:59Great.
01:00:01I'll see you there.
01:00:11Well,
01:00:13this place is extremely
01:00:15high-class.
01:00:17Well, my
01:00:19dad has a few rich friends.
01:00:25And James Thornton is here.
01:00:27I know you don't
01:00:29wanna see him,
01:00:31but Jess, my dad's here.
01:00:33He's gonna join us later.
01:00:35Okay.
01:00:37The bidding's about to start.
01:00:42Oh, the bitch is here!
01:00:44I know.
01:00:46Don't worry, we can teach him a lesson.
01:00:48Yeah, how?
01:00:50Let's see if Daniel can handle a little humiliation.
01:00:52With money.
01:00:54Here with money? What money?
01:00:56I haven't gotten my inheritance back yet.
01:00:58Yeah, I know. Your mother spoke to Richard.
01:01:00He said he's willing to donate some cash
01:01:02if we make Jessica look ugly.
01:01:04Oh.
01:01:06You're the best.
01:01:08I know.
01:01:11Ladies and gentlemen,

01:01:41Four million dollars.
01:01:43What are they doing?
01:01:45Where did they get that money from?
01:01:47I don't know, but that definitely
01:01:49turns familiar here.
01:01:51Really? But I don't even care
01:01:53about this bid.

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