00:00:00Fake boyfriends? Interesting.
00:00:09I just can't believe we did that.
00:00:13Mia, will you marry me?
00:00:15Yes! Oh my god!
00:00:20I can sing to.
00:00:23Perhaps this will help return in the room?
00:00:30I thought as much.
00:00:33It's me.
00:00:34We're bluffing about.
00:00:36She would never find out.
00:00:40Now this is what we're talking about, James.
00:00:44Anybody here?
00:00:47What do you want from me?
00:00:53Anyone here?
00:00:58Anyone here?
00:01:03What do you want from me?
00:01:16It's time to tell the truth, Richard, don't you think?
00:01:24Please, put the gun down.
00:01:28You don't want to end up like this.
00:01:30Mia is the only one in love.
00:01:58Mack Allen. Neat.
00:02:00Okay.
00:02:03Marriage. Suffocating.
00:02:08Tell me about it.
00:02:11Sounds like you've got something you want to say.
00:02:16Family pressures, right?
00:02:19Want to talk?
00:02:26My family have been on my case for years.
00:02:28It's like they have already chosen my future spouse.
00:02:35My family wants to plan my entire life.
00:02:38My family wants to plan my entire life.
00:02:44I'm James.
00:02:45James Turner, by the way.
00:02:49I'm Mia.
00:02:50Pleasure to meet you.
00:02:55It's our endless battle.
00:03:00It's my new comrade.
00:03:08James, right?
00:03:09Fancy seeing you here again.
00:03:10Mia.
00:03:11Must be fake.
00:03:13That or you just come here a little too often.
00:03:15Scotch.
00:03:16Neat.
00:03:17Got it.
00:03:19How are things going on, Ryan?
00:03:20My mom calls me every single day to see if I'm bringing someone home for Thanksgiving dinner.
00:03:41And what was your response?
00:03:44Um, I said yes just to stop her calls, but I don't think there's any...
00:03:50You?
00:03:52My parents are obsessed with my kids.
00:03:55Even though I'm still single.
00:03:57Splash please.
00:04:07Here, to our endless battle.
00:04:13Mia, I've been thinking, why don't we help each other out here?
00:04:34What do you mean?
00:04:37Maybe we can be the plus one for each other, so our families will stop pushing us.
00:04:41Fake boyfriend?
00:04:44Interesting?
00:04:46Only once.
00:04:48And we can be free for a long time.
00:04:51It's not what I usually do, but maybe it's exactly what I need right now.
00:04:58This night is just getting more interesting.
00:05:01Sounds like the craziest night I've ever had.
00:05:04Not yet.
00:05:05Wait till Thanksgiving.
00:05:06Okay.
00:05:07Boyfriend.
00:05:09Why don't you introduce yourself more to me?
00:05:13Well, I own a real estate company.
00:05:16We work with many partners on their projects.
00:05:19You sure look like a boss.
00:05:21The scotch gives it away.
00:05:22All right.
00:05:23Enough about it.
00:05:25Tell me something about yourself.
00:05:27Well, I'm an artist and a gallery owner.
00:05:31Not to show off, but you've probably seen a lot of my work around Manhattan already.
00:05:37Wait.
00:05:39Are you Mia Davis?
00:05:41That Mia Davis?
00:05:42In the flesh, darling.
00:05:50I understand the emergence, but this is not how negotiation works.
00:05:54I need this to be done in three days.
00:05:56Our investors are not going to wait for us.
00:05:59Anderson.
00:06:01I assure you, we are doing everything we can.
00:06:04I trust you because you are the best I've got.
00:06:07We won't let you down.
00:06:12Hmm?
00:06:37Hey there.
00:06:39Mia, what a pleasant surprise.
00:06:41How did you have time to call me today?
00:06:44Is this a bad time?
00:06:46You sound like you've had a rough day.
00:06:48It was one of those days.
00:06:50Well, sounds like you could use a break.
00:06:53How about a drink to unwind later?
00:06:56Let me check.
00:07:00Yeah, I can really use that.
00:07:02I'll meet you at the same bar.
00:07:12Knowing my mom, she'll definitely want you to stay over.
00:07:16So, we'll probably spend three days in one bedroom.
00:07:20After that, we'll be free to go back to our regular lives.
00:07:24Sounds like a plan.
00:07:25Here we go, James.
00:07:26Remember, we're a couple deeply in love.
00:07:40Got it.
00:07:41Mom, I'm home.
00:07:42Come here.
00:07:43It's been so long.
00:07:45Mom, this is James, my boyfriend.
00:07:48Pleasure to meeting Mrs. Davis.
00:07:49Mia's told me so much about.
00:07:50Please, call me Maria.
00:07:52Common name.
00:07:53Hug her so with some cookies.
00:07:54Before I finish dressing the turkey.
00:07:56So far, so good.
00:07:57Let's keep it up.
00:08:00Now, I'm actually enjoying this date.
00:08:03Me too.
00:08:05I'm so good.
00:08:07I'm so good.
00:08:09No, I'm not sure.
00:08:11I'm sorry.
00:08:12I'm sorry.
00:08:14No, I'm not sure if I'm not sure if I just want to go back to the bathroom.
00:08:18No, I'm not sure if I don't know if I want to go back to the bathroom.
00:08:19You know, I'm actually enjoying this day.
00:08:23Me too. I feel like we're a real couple.
00:08:28So, you two, tell me how you met.
00:08:34Of course. It was a charming little cafe on the 3rd Avenue.
00:08:39Neil was sitting alone reading a chat for Eugenides and I couldn't resist striking out the conversation.
00:08:46Oh, how I met you.
00:08:50I'm so happy you guys met each other.
00:08:54It's been so long for me to fall from summer. So, thank you.
00:09:16Bia, your mom's here. What do we do?
00:09:24Uh, quick. Come in here.
00:09:30Okay. Come in.
00:09:34Good morning, lovebirds. I can see you had a lovely night.
00:09:41Stop it, mom. You're making it awkward.
00:09:44Look at you. All glowing.
00:09:48I'll do everything for my princess.
00:09:53Okay, um, I think the couple needs their alone time now.
00:09:57Okay, okay. Just don't take too long. And shouldn't you get back to the city today?
00:10:04I have to say it was quite a play in your house.
00:10:15It was perfect. They all bought it.
00:10:18Remember how your mom almost got us in the bedroom.
00:10:21My heart was about to jump out when I heard that knock, but we made it.
00:10:27So, has it been easier for you with your parents since our last visit?
00:10:34They just won't let the topic off you.
00:10:37Same here. But now, my mom won't stop asking me about the wedding.
00:10:42I'm gonna lose my mind.
00:10:47Let's just share the night we have right now.
00:10:50Well, we still can.
00:10:57You know, James, it's nights like these that really make me appreciate the simple things in life.
00:11:09I feel the same.
00:11:11I know there's beauty in commitment, but...
00:11:14Shouldn't it be our own life trips to make?
00:11:17Exactly.
00:11:18I'd rather cherish these moments with you and my friends.
00:11:23Telling me to rush into a life.
00:11:26Raising kids in a house and giving up all of my freedoms?
00:11:31No, thank you.
00:11:36Wait.
00:11:38I have an idea.
00:11:40Might help both of us.
00:11:43I'm all ears.
00:11:45Thinking.
00:11:47What if we turn the tables on our families?
00:11:51Thinking.
00:11:55What if we turn the tables on our families?
00:12:00Please elaborate.
00:12:02What if we consider a contract marriage?
00:12:08A contract marriage?
00:12:10Yeah.
00:12:11Yeah.
00:12:12Our families will be satisfied while we actually live a free life.
00:12:16We'll make a legal contract with...
00:12:18Maybe separate bedrooms?
00:12:20Financial terms and so on?
00:12:22Oh.
00:12:23No feelings should be included.
00:12:26This is huge.
00:12:27This is huge.
00:12:28I need to think about it.
00:12:31I know.
00:12:32It's not something to do with the person whom you just met.
00:12:36But think about this.
00:12:38The contract will satisfy our parents' expectations.
00:12:42So we can take control of our own lives without their interference.
00:12:46It's the perfect solution to our current dilemma.
00:12:49It's just...
00:12:51Like I said, love and marriage are not supposed to be contractual.
00:12:57They should be based on emotions and connection that grows naturally.
00:13:03I get it, Mia.
00:13:05I do.
00:13:06But sometimes life doesn't follow our script.
00:13:09And we need to adapt to that.
00:13:11Our life won't change the bit.
00:13:13Just more freedom with this contract.
00:13:15But...
00:13:16What about the no emotions term?
00:13:19Should we really cut off our feelings like that?
00:13:22It's necessary.
00:13:24We need to avoid the situation of falling in love with each other.
00:13:28It will make things difficult.
00:13:31Well, you do make a good point.
00:13:36I do want to take control over my own destiny again.
00:13:41But we need to set boundaries.
00:13:45Conditions.
00:13:46We'll stick with friendship.
00:13:48Contractual partners.
00:13:51Agreed, Mia.
00:13:52I'll write the legal contract.
00:13:54And we should both be clear about all the terms.
00:13:57Oh, and one more thing, James.
00:13:59We need to keep our personal lives separate from all of this.
00:14:03We both continue to pursue our goals, passions, and relationships.
00:14:08Absolutely.
00:14:10Our contract won't affect any of our lives.
00:14:13We can make it done tomorrow.
00:14:15While our squad will take care of everything.
00:14:18Deal.
00:14:20I can't believe we're actually doing this.
00:14:34Yeah.
00:14:35We've got that far, Mia.
00:14:37Let's go through this contract together.
00:14:41Okay.
00:14:42Separate bedrooms.
00:14:47No feelings clause.
00:14:52And clear financial terms.
00:14:58Yep.
00:14:59We'll be committed to each other from now on.
00:15:29I can't believe we did that.
00:15:33So, what's next?
00:15:36We'll tell our parents and make it official.
00:15:39I'll propose to you in your apartment.
00:15:41And send pictures to our families.
00:15:43Well, it's a lot to get done just to prove we're getting married.
00:15:48Yes, then we'll plan a wedding so everyone will buy it.
00:15:52It's all part of the plan.
00:15:54I really want to get this out of my head.
00:15:57Can we just get it over with so we can move on with our lives?
00:16:10Did you turn the camera on?
00:16:13Yeah.
00:16:14It's working.
00:16:19Mia.
00:16:20There is something I'm wanting to ask you tonight.
00:16:22Yes?
00:16:27Mia.
00:16:28Will you marry me?
00:16:29Oh my God, James.
00:16:31Yes!
00:16:36Oh my God.
00:16:46Oh my God.
00:16:50I can't believe we just did that.
00:17:03It's all part of the plan.
00:17:05This is our first big show on the stage.
00:17:20We have to make sure that we look like a happy couple in front of everyone.
00:17:28Of course.
00:17:29Not mistake is allowed tonight.
00:17:35It's getting harder for me to tell between all this and the truth.
00:18:00I know, but we have to stay firm.
00:18:06Focus on the bigger picture.
00:18:08Neither of us wants a real marriage right now.
00:18:11And we still have our wedding in two days.
00:18:19Let's get some rest.
00:18:21Good night.
00:18:22Good night.
00:18:30Good night.
00:18:31Good night.
00:18:36Good night.

00:23:06james
00:23:07james
00:23:08james
00:23:09james
00:23:10james
00:23:11You know, I've been thinking about the day we met.
00:23:18It feels like a lifetime ago.
00:23:23I know, and I'm glad that I met you.
00:23:29You're such a special woman, and I've never met anyone like you before.
00:23:34You too.
00:23:39I'm glad I met a real gentleman.
00:23:51Even though it's a dramatic faith wedding, I'm happy to have you here with me.
00:24:03It's not a fairy tale.
00:24:06It's a bloody reality.
00:24:09But I still like it.
00:24:12It's our story.
00:24:33What's happening?
00:24:39We're stuck.
00:24:41What do we do?
00:24:43I need to be there on time.
00:24:45Let's call the building.
00:24:48They should come and fix this.
00:24:58There's no signal.
00:25:00We could be trapped in here for hours.
00:25:02We won't.
00:25:05Someone will notice the elevator went wrong and come to fix this.
00:25:09We just need to be patient.
00:25:11What's that for?
00:25:16Just to give us some strength.
00:25:19Friends can help too.
00:25:21Okay.
00:25:22I can't believe this is happening.
00:25:35Well, at least it's a short break from our complex life.
00:25:43You always find a way to be positive, don't you?
00:25:50James, what if people find out about our contract marriage?
00:25:55They'd be so disappointed.
00:25:58We are doing everything we can.
00:26:00And so far, we did good.
00:26:02Everyone is happy.
00:26:05I just think about how far we've come.
00:26:09Since the day we met, there was the gala, the proposal, the wedding, and now blackmail?
00:26:18It's like an endless spy game.
00:26:21I know.
00:26:23But we're in this together.
00:26:26We chose this to take control of our life.
00:26:29And now we are tied together by fate.
00:26:32We are one.
00:26:37I suddenly feel so relieved.
00:26:41Maybe it's because I'm not alone anymore.
00:26:46I know.
00:26:47I always rush to my friends after a bad day.
00:26:49And here I am with a dearest friend.
00:26:53And now maybe I can finally get some space from my mom.
00:26:57Now that I'm busy with my new husband.
00:27:00Mine too.
00:27:01My mom called the other day.
00:27:03But when she saw you walk out from the bath, she hung up as soon as she could.
00:27:07But of course, she made fun of us.
00:27:10Or maybe next time I can show up even sexier.
00:27:14And then she can make fun of you some more.
00:27:17I'm sexy now.
00:27:23Maybe we should talk about what just happened.
00:27:34The moment was...
00:27:36I enjoyed it.
00:27:37There is something I never thought I would say.
00:27:40But it's not what we expected.
00:27:43I thought we got into this to avoid marriage.
00:27:46Mia.
00:27:47I have to tell you.
00:27:49I don't want to lie to myself or to you anymore.
00:27:54I care about you more than I should.
00:27:56I don't want to hide my feelings and pretend nothing is there.
00:28:00I'm in love with you.
00:28:01I actually feel the exact same way.
00:28:13I can't stop thinking about you all the time.
00:28:18Although we got into this relationship to avoid affection, I'm glad that fate brought us together.
00:28:25Let's tell everyone the truth.
00:28:29I'm sure they will understand.
00:28:31Maybe mad at first, but they will be happy for us in the end.
00:28:35Our families will be shocked when they find out.
00:28:38I know, Mia.
00:28:39But it's time to set things right.
00:28:40It should be our priority right now.
00:28:42James, our parents aside, I'm really worried about that blackmail that we received at the bar.
00:29:03Who would be so interested in our personal matters?
00:29:07Mia, I have no idea.
00:29:10But I hired an investigator.
00:29:11Hope she can bring me some valuable information.
00:29:14I have a feeling someone is watching us from the dark.
00:29:24We should have never gotten ourselves into this mess.
00:29:27This contract marriage was a stupid idea in hindsight.
00:29:31Bringing us all of these unexpected problems.
00:29:34We chose this to live a better life, Mia.
00:29:44And yet, I feel that life is worse under the pretense.
00:29:48We will get ourselves out of this situation.
00:29:51We'll find the right time to tell everyone the truth to our marriage.
00:29:55And we'll for sure catch the person hunting us.
00:30:02Who's there?
00:30:29Anyone here?
00:30:41What do you want from me?
00:30:43You're exactly where I want you, Mia.
00:30:54Where am I?
00:30:56What did I do?
00:30:58I assure you, there's a misunderstanding.
00:31:02Please, just tell me what you want from me.
00:31:06Who are you?
00:31:07I just need you to be here, your body.
00:31:11We can talk things out.
00:31:13You don't need to tie me to a chair.
00:31:16I will cooperate.
00:31:18If it is money, I can give it to you.
00:31:22Just let me go.
00:31:36Hello?
00:31:37Mr. Turner, it's time for you to decide.
00:31:50Maya's life depends on you.
00:31:52Don't bother.
00:31:53You won't recognize who I am.
00:31:55What matters is Maya.
00:31:57You have 24 hours to prepare 5 million dollars if you want to see her alive.
00:32:02Who are you and what do you want?
00:32:04That is not a question for me to answer.
00:32:07Just do as I said.
00:32:09I can't arrange that much money in such a short time.
00:32:13That's not my concern.
00:32:15Mr. Turner, you can't put a price on love, can you?
00:32:19I need to be sure she's okay.
00:32:21Let me talk to her.
00:32:22That won't be happening.
00:32:24I swear, if you dare to touch her, I will hunt you down and pull out your eyes myself.
00:32:30I don't know what to do, Scott.
00:32:39They're asking for 5 millions in 24 hours.
00:32:42I can't lose her.
00:32:44Well, figure it out, James.
00:32:46I'll do everything I can.
00:32:48I can't lose Mia.
00:32:51I thought the relationship between you two was strictly based on the contract.
00:32:57We found each other the one we have been looking for our whole life.
00:33:01Oh, no.
00:33:02This was not meant to happen.
00:33:05I have to find her.
00:33:07I can't stand to see her in danger.
00:33:09We will.
00:33:10But who will commit such a horrible crime?
00:33:14Anyone ring the bell?
00:33:16Mia wouldn't hurt anyone.
00:33:18I can assure you, this has something to do with that blackmail we received.
00:33:24Blackmail?
00:33:26Someone has been stalking us.
00:33:28They know about the contract marriage and threaten to expose us.
00:33:31Whatever it takes, I will hunt this person down.
00:33:38Mark, please, I need your help.
00:33:41Mia's life is in danger.
00:33:43I wish I could, James.
00:33:455 million is a lot.
00:33:48I can't pull those resources in such a short time.
00:33:52Save it, Mark.
00:33:53When it comes to your turn, I dropped a lot of things to help you.
00:33:56You're a fucking nuisance.
00:33:57I guess our business partnership has also come to an end.
00:34:01I might be able to cash this out.
00:34:02Thank you for calling CPM Bank.
00:34:03Mr. Turner, how can we help you today?
00:34:04Thank you for calling CPM Bank.
00:34:06Mr. Turner, how can we help you today?
00:34:07I have a certificate of deposit with your bank.
00:34:08I want to cash it out immediately.
00:34:09I understand the urgency.
00:34:10Thank you for calling CPM Bank.
00:34:11Mr. Turner, how can we help you today?
00:34:12I have a certificate of deposit with your bank.
00:34:13I want to cash it out immediately.
00:34:14I understand the urgency.
00:34:15Please give us a moment.
00:34:16Thank you for calling CPM Bank.
00:34:17Mr. Turner, how can we help you today?
00:34:30I have a certificate of deposit with your bank.
00:34:34I want to cash it out immediately.
00:34:36I understand the urgency.
00:34:39Please give us a moment.
00:34:45Can you get money from me in an hour?
00:34:50It's for an urgent matter.
00:34:52Mr. Turner, since this is a huge sum of money, I will be needing you to come over.
00:34:56I will be there in 20 minutes.
00:34:59Please get the cash ready by then.
00:35:01Mr. Turner, all noted.
00:35:03Great.
00:35:15Is it ready?
00:35:20Yes.
00:35:21Give me the location.
00:35:22Boom!
00:35:38I can't thank you enough for saving my life, James.
00:35:41Do anything to keep you safe.
00:35:43We're in this together.
00:35:49I thought I'd never see you again.
00:35:52I swear to you.
00:35:53I'll protect you with memory.
00:36:08I want to give you both an update.
00:36:10We are investigating the lead we got from the drop-off point.
00:36:14Our main focus is on tracking down the kidnappers and bringing them to justice.
00:36:20Excerpt.
00:36:21Thank you, Detective.
00:36:24We appreciate your efforts.
00:36:32I'm so, so sorry about all of this, James.
00:36:37It's not your fault.
00:36:39We'll get through this.
00:36:41Here we are.
00:36:50It's been a while since we had a pissing room like this.
00:37:08Yeah. It's nice to get a break from all the chaos.
00:37:20Mia, you won't believe this.
00:37:29What is it?
00:37:32A company chose us to partner in a luxury project. They love my pitch.
00:37:37Oh my god, James, that's amazing.
00:37:41I'm gonna call my employees to announce this news.
00:37:45And an after party later?
00:37:49You know me too well.
00:37:52Will you pick me up later for our little celebration?
00:37:56Absolutely! I'll meet you at home after work.
00:37:59Yeah, you know.
00:38:19Yes, I needed to gather the people online for a meeting. We got that project and we need to present it to the client this afternoon.
00:38:28Wow, that's fantastic. I will gather down.
00:38:31Thank you all for your time. I'm eager to bring my team on board to execute this project.
00:38:37Before I finish, I'm just curious. Why you guys chose us out of all the companies in the world?
00:38:47Our president insisted you were the perfect fit. She said you're an old friend.
00:38:50An old friend? I'm not sure I know who it could be.
00:38:54You'll find out soon enough, James. For now, focus on getting the job done.
00:39:31What's wrong, James?
00:39:55What's wrong, James?
00:40:00Who could that be?
00:40:01I don't know, but we are going to find out soon.
00:40:17Samantha, have you found anything?
00:40:20I have been waiting ages to hear from you.
00:40:22Hope you have news that I want to hear.
00:40:25James, we've made some significant progress.
00:40:28I think we are close to uncovering who has been trying to blackmail you and Mia.
00:40:33I'm over yours.
00:40:35Details, please.
00:40:36We managed to trace the source of the blackmail.
00:40:39At times we found a connection to an individual named Richard Kingsley.
00:40:44Richard Kingsley?
00:40:45Never heard that name.
00:40:47And why would he do this?
00:40:49We're still walking on that part.
00:40:51We'll gather more evidence and get to the bottom of this.
00:40:54Thank you, Samantha.
00:40:55Keep me posted on any updates.
00:40:57I want to know everything about Richard Kingsley and his motives.
00:41:01Of course.
00:41:02We are so close to unraveling this mystery.
00:41:08I received these pictures of you in the apartment.
00:41:23I tried to call you many times and you didn't answer.
00:41:26I thought something happened to you.
00:41:29I'm so sorry.
00:41:30I've been so engrossed in my painting.
00:41:33Everything's okay.
00:41:34I'm just glad you're okay.
00:41:36I'm safe and sound.
00:41:39Thank you for worrying about me so much.
00:41:42Samantha, the private detective I heard is close to finding the person behind all this.
00:41:48I won't let him walk in one piece after what he has done.
00:41:52You know, it's moments like these that really make me appreciate having you in my life, James.
00:42:04Contract or not.
00:42:06I feel the same way, Mia.
00:42:09I won't ever want to lose you.
00:42:13I've been working on this for a few weeks.
00:42:16It may not be to everyone's taste, but it means a lot to me.
00:42:22It's wonderful.
00:42:25You're really talented.
00:42:27Thank you so much for your support.
00:42:30It means the world to me.
00:42:32Hello?
00:42:47James, I trust you are well.
00:42:51I wanted to inform you that there is an urgent meeting scheduled regarding the latest project we are partnering up on.
00:42:58Sure.
00:42:59Where should we meet?
00:43:02I can rearrange some work to make it.
00:43:05That's great.
00:43:07Your expertise and insights have been invaluable to us.
00:43:11I'll be at your office at 3pm and we can go over all the details.
00:43:16Thank you for your recognition.
00:43:18I'm more than happy to lead this project to our huge success.
00:43:42Hi.
00:43:43I'm just calling to check if we should reschedule today's meeting.
00:43:46My apologies, James.
00:43:49I wouldn't be able to make the meeting myself due to some unexpected events.
00:43:54But our president is on her way to meet with you herself.
00:43:58Wow.
00:43:59I was not aware of that.
00:44:01Maybe you can catch up with each other.
00:44:03It's a great opportunity.
00:44:05She surely is very excited about this.
00:44:35I'm James Turner.
00:44:36You're...
00:44:37Jimmy?
00:44:38Don't you remember me?
00:44:51I'm sorry, but I can't seem to.
00:44:56Perhaps this will help you to remember?
00:45:04I thought as much.
00:45:09It's me.
00:45:11Your beloved, Mabel.
00:45:16Mabel?
00:45:17What the...
00:45:34You know, Mabel, next year is going to be a whole new world to me.
00:45:45I know, babe.
00:45:47I can't believe you're graduating.
00:45:49Time did fly.
00:45:51Life after college.
00:45:53It's a bit scary, but I'm so excited.
00:45:56I want to work in real estate and I can't wait what I can achieve.
00:46:00I'm sure nothing can stop you from the goal.
00:46:05I can't wait to graduate so we can get married.
00:46:12Yeah, I know.
00:46:14Did you lock the door?
00:46:17Of course I did.
00:46:19Hope you won't change after you leave.
00:46:23I won't.
00:46:25I can't wait.
00:46:38Mabel?
00:46:40James, I can't explain.
00:46:44I'm so sorry I have to find out like this, but Mabel and I have been together for a while now.
00:46:55I can't wait.
00:46:56I can't wait.
00:47:02Mabel?
00:47:03What are you doing here?
00:47:05It's Victorian.
00:47:07And through business, of course, darling.
00:47:14What are you playing here?
00:47:16What's up with all the charade?
00:47:20Let's say I wanted to see how have you been, James.
00:47:24You know, for the old time's sake.
00:47:29Old time's sake?
00:47:30You cheated on me with my best friend.
00:47:33What do you want?
00:47:35People change, James.
00:47:37And I just can't let you off my mind.
00:47:43How did you become the president of this company?
00:47:46What are you hiding?
00:47:49A woman like me can get whatever I want with just a little trick.
00:47:55See?
00:47:56I helped you got this project.
00:47:59I've missed you, James.
00:48:01Missed us.
00:48:03We should be together.
00:48:05I'm the only one who can help you.
00:48:09No, Victoria.
00:48:11I won't let you manipulate.
00:48:13Not again.
00:48:18You have always been a challenge, James.
00:48:24This is not how I imaged our reunion.
00:48:27If you come here to talk about that project, let's get to it.
00:48:30Otherwise, you should leave.
00:48:32Don't be so harsh.
00:48:34You want business?
00:48:36We'll talk about business.
00:48:39Let's get professional.
00:48:41James, the reason I chose you is not only because of our past.
00:48:48I trust you and your ability.
00:48:50I know what you're capable of.
00:48:54Really?
00:48:56Oh, please.
00:48:58Put our history behind, will you?
00:49:01I'd pay responsibility to my company too, okay?
00:49:05I didn't take this job for fun.
00:49:08Fine.
00:49:09Let's be clear.
00:49:10I won't do anything that goes against my principles or the law.
00:49:17Agreed, James.
00:49:19We'll keep it strictly professional.
00:49:37Scott, you won't believe what just happened.
00:49:48What's the matter?
00:49:59Wait, Mabel?
00:50:01Your ex-girlfriend from college?
00:50:03You haven't seen her in years, right?
00:50:05That's the one.
00:50:07She's now going by Victoria and she's the president of this major corporation.
00:50:12She wants my help on a project.
00:50:15I can't shake the feeling that there's more to it.
00:50:20I think we have to wait for her move.
00:50:23I need to find out what's really going on.
00:50:25But I can't do it alone.
00:50:26Will you help me, Scott?
00:50:28Of course.
00:50:29Happy to help.
00:50:30She wants you involved in a real estate project.
00:50:33But it's more than just business.
00:50:34I'm sure of it.
00:50:36I have the same feeling.
00:50:37Nothing is ever pure about her.
00:50:39I don't want Mia to worry about this.
00:50:41She's working on an important artwork.
00:50:44And I promise, I'll protect her.
00:50:47Of course.
00:50:49I'll try my best to find out Victoria's true intent.
00:50:52Thanks, man.
00:50:53What should I do without you?
00:51:00James, are you okay?
00:51:04You seem a little bit off tonight.
00:51:10Sorry to make your word, babe.
00:51:14Just step with work, you know.
00:51:16Alright, it's just that we've been through a lot together.
00:51:20You don't need to hide anything from me.
00:51:23If you want to talk about something, we can figure it out together.
00:51:27Babe, it shouldn't worry you.
00:51:32I can handle it myself.
00:51:33Trust me.
00:51:35Okay.
00:51:36Just remember, I'm always here for you.
00:51:40If you want to talk things through or need some help, I'm here.
00:51:47Thank you, Mia.
00:51:48You focus on your beautiful project and leave everything else to me.
00:51:52James, we're one.
00:51:54There's nothing that we can't handle together.
00:52:03Hi, Jimmy.
00:52:08Victoria.
00:52:10What an unexpected surprise.
00:52:12I don't recall any business meeting with you today.
00:52:17I'm just visiting an old friend.
00:52:19I've moved on with my life.
00:52:22I have Mia and she means everything to me.
00:52:26Oh, please, James.
00:52:28You wouldn't let a college flinch cloud your judgement after all these years.
00:52:33Right?
00:52:35Spare me the details.
00:52:36You betrayed me with my own roommate.
00:52:38Who did you expect me to do, James?
00:52:42You were leaving college and I wouldn't survive alone with a blood sucking family.
00:52:48I need someone to back me up.
00:52:51I was a child.
00:52:53I don't care about your reasons anymore, Victoria.
00:52:57I got over you a long time ago.
00:52:58So cut wherever you're playing here.
00:53:04Come back here, dummy.
00:53:06I don't ever want to meet you again outside of our normal business arrangements.
00:53:16James, I never said I wanted to be your wife.
00:53:20I just want to be in your life.
00:53:25And...
00:53:28You are coming with us to check the new site for our project.
00:53:32It's required by our partnership contract.
00:53:42Yeah.
00:53:44I've got a business trip coming up.
00:53:46It's a sudden opportunity.
00:53:47And I need to leave for a few days.
00:53:50Oh, really?
00:53:52That's unexpected.
00:53:53When do you leave?
00:53:55Tomorrow morning.
00:53:57I know, it's a short notice.
00:54:00But I'll be back before you know it.
00:54:02Alright, James.
00:54:04Just be safe and don't overwork yourself.
00:54:07I will.
00:54:09I'll miss you so much.
00:54:17I'll miss you.
00:54:18I'll miss you.
00:54:19James.
00:54:21You've had quite a bit.
00:54:23Is everything alright?
00:54:25I'm just trying to...
00:54:27relax.
00:54:29I'm just trying to...
00:54:31relax.
00:54:33I'm just trying to...
00:54:35relax.
00:54:37I'm just trying to...
00:54:39relax.
00:54:42I'm just trying to...
00:54:47relax.
00:54:51Everything's fine.
00:54:53Just...
00:54:54leaving.
00:55:04You've had enough tonight, James.
00:55:07Maybe make sure you're comfortable.
00:55:09What's wrong?
00:55:12Doria.
00:55:14What are you...
00:55:15doing?
00:55:16Don't you worry.
00:55:18We'll have a little chat.
00:55:20You're safe with me.
00:55:23What do you...
00:55:25want?
00:55:27You, James.
00:55:29I want you.
00:55:31I want all of you.
00:55:33Your body.
00:55:35Your love.
00:55:37And even your soul.
00:55:40Stop it.
00:55:43I'm...
00:55:44I'm married.
00:55:46I don't mind.
00:55:48Or maybe this makes you want you more.
00:55:55You enjoy it, don't you?
00:55:58I know exactly how to please you.
00:56:01Yeah.
00:56:03I can do it, darling.
00:56:05Oh, come on, darling.
00:56:06We all know about your little contract.
00:56:11Besides...
00:56:13She would never find out.
00:56:17Now this is what we're talking about, James.
00:56:20What the hell happened?
00:56:32I can't believe I'll ever get this far.
00:56:34Don, baby.
00:56:35What's wrong?
00:56:36Victoria.
00:56:37This is a mistake.
00:56:39Did you set me up?
00:56:40Where are you laying next to me?
00:56:42Oh, you were just so energetic.
00:56:45Stop the games.
00:56:46I'm serious.
00:56:48I don't love you and don't want to have anything to do with me.
00:56:50Hmm.
00:56:51Well, well.
00:56:52Let's say...
00:56:53We had a stunning night.
00:56:54And...
00:56:55I saved some pictures for memories.
00:56:56Oh, well.
00:56:57Well, well.
00:56:58Let's say...
00:56:59We had a stunning night.
00:57:00And...
00:57:01I saved some pictures for memories.
00:57:02Delete those pictures right now!
00:57:25Why don't you come here and make me?
00:57:27Why don't you come here and make me?
00:57:31You're playing with fire. I won't be blackmailed or manipulated.
00:57:35Delete them, now!
00:57:42You're just no fun, James.
00:57:49I want you to step away from my life. This can't happen again.
00:57:54We'll see about that.
00:57:57Oh, Jimmy, Jimmy. You can never run away from me.
00:58:16Oh, my God! James, you're home!
00:58:20I miss you too, babe. It's good to be home.
00:58:23Tell me everything about your trip.
00:58:25It was a normal business trip. Nothing special.
00:58:29Let's not talk about it. I just want to enjoy the moment with you.
00:58:33Okay, sure.
00:58:36I'm just so glad you're home.
00:58:55Hello?
00:58:56Hello, Mia.
00:58:57Who's this?
00:59:01I guess Jimmy didn't tell you about me. I'm Victoria, the president of the company James is presently partnering in.
00:59:11Okay. How may I help you?
00:59:14You see, Jimmy and I have come a long way, and since you're not really married to him, so I guess there is no harm in stepping in.
00:59:24What do you mean?
00:59:25What do you mean?
00:59:26You see, James is mine, and mine alone. If you will kindly excuse us so we can be together, that would be great.
00:59:36He would never like someone like you.
00:59:38Oh, please. He showed lots of love to me not long ago. He surely had no time to think of you. I'll send you the pictures. Hope you enjoy them.
00:59:49Impossible. He would never do this to me.
01:00:09Hey, how's Rome?
01:00:12Nothing. How was your day?
01:00:17Oh.
01:00:20Easy as usual.
01:00:24Who is Victoria?
01:00:28Victoria? Where did you hear that name from?
01:00:32She called me James.
01:00:35She said things.
01:00:37Things...
01:00:40I can't believe.
01:00:45Mia, it's...
01:00:47I can explain.
01:00:49You have to know...
01:00:51you're the one...
01:00:53and the only one I love.
01:00:58Tell me the truth, James.
01:01:00Is she...
01:01:02important to you?
01:01:03She's my ex from college, and...
01:01:16also my current business partner.
01:01:19And what about this? Is this part of your business?
01:01:21We...
01:01:22We...
01:01:23We...
01:01:24We had a businessman.
01:01:25She set me up.
01:01:26I made a mistake.
01:01:27But it's not how it looks like.
01:01:28I love you.
01:01:29I love you.
01:01:30And I don't want her to ruin us.
01:01:31Tell me the truth, James.
01:01:32What happened that night?
01:01:34Yeah.
01:01:35I tried to stop her.
01:01:37I was...
01:01:38too drunk and also confused.
01:01:39I don't know if I can trust you anymore, James.
01:01:40I don't know if I can trust you anymore, James.
01:01:41I don't know if I can trust you anymore, James.
01:01:42But it's not how it looks like.
01:01:43I love you.
01:01:44And I don't want her to ruin us.
01:01:47Tell me the truth, James.
01:01:49What happened that night?
01:01:50What happened that night?
01:01:55Yeah.
01:01:56I tried to stop her.
01:01:59I was...
01:02:01too drunk and also confused.
01:02:06I don't know if I can trust you anymore, James.
01:02:10You put our relationship on edge.
01:02:13I'm so sorry.
01:02:15I'll...
01:02:16I'll do everything it takes to make this right.
01:02:19Please, don't give up on us.
01:02:26I need some space.
01:02:29Please, just...
01:02:32Leave me alone.
01:02:50Samantha?
01:02:51Found anything?
01:02:52Yes, I got a lead.
01:02:54It's been a challenging investigation, but I've uncovered some crucial information leads on Richard Kingsley.
01:03:02I'm listening.
01:03:04He went to the same college with Mia, and he developed an obsession over her everything.
01:03:09He's been stalking your life, collecting information, and attempting to get her.
01:03:16This is insane.
01:03:18How did he head so close to us?
01:03:20He used virus illnesses and keep a low profile, which made it challenging to track him.
01:03:27But we've identified his patterns and his current location.
01:03:31I'd advise involving the authorities and getting a restraining order against him.
01:03:37Thank you, Samantha.
01:03:38I appreciate your dedication.
01:03:40You and Mia deserve peace, James.
01:03:42I will continue to monitor the situation.
01:03:45But please take legal action to protect yourself.
01:03:50I'll take care of her, and it's time for me to take control.
01:03:53It's time to tell the truth, Richard. Don't you think?
01:04:14Who sent you after us?
01:04:16Someone like you would never think of such a deliberate plan.
01:04:19If you don't tell the truth, I will call the cops on you.
01:04:21Fine.
01:04:23Fine.
01:04:25It was Victoria.
01:04:27Victoria.
01:04:28How did she convince you to do this?
01:04:34She told me about your contract marriage.
01:04:37She told me you don't even care about Mia.
01:04:41She promised to help me get Mia back after she gets you back.
01:04:47You were manipulated, Richard.
01:04:49You're such a clown.
01:04:59James.
01:05:01I've been seeing you.
01:05:04I thought someone never really seen me, Liam, huh?
01:05:08Missed me already?
01:05:10Victoria.
01:05:12I want answers.
01:05:13Why did you hire Richard to stalk us?
01:05:17Richard?
01:05:19I've never heard any Richard in my life.
01:05:23I know it was you.
01:05:25He told me everything.
01:05:27Okay.
01:05:28It was me.
01:05:30But I did it for us.
01:05:31For us.
01:05:32For us?
01:05:33I don't know there isn't us.
01:05:35I've always loved you, Jimmy.
01:05:37I just want to be back together with you.
01:05:38Here is the plan.
01:05:39We need to kidnap Mia without anyone tracing back to us.
01:05:41The other isn't us.
01:05:42The other isn't us.
01:05:45I've always loved you, Jimmy.
01:05:47I just want to be back together with you.
01:05:49The other is a plan.
01:05:50The other is a plan.
01:05:51I just want to be back together with you.
01:06:01Here is the plan.
01:06:04We need to kidnap Mia without anyone tracing back to us.
01:06:11We are professionals. We know how to cover our tracks.
01:06:15Good.
01:06:17And remember, I want her unharmed.
01:06:22This is just to make James realized he belongs to me.
01:06:30We understand. You get which one?
01:06:47What?
01:06:52Hello?
01:06:57Who's there?
01:06:58My, my, Mia.
01:07:07What a tangled web we weave.
01:07:09It's me, Victoria.
01:07:17What do you want?
01:07:18I warned you to walk away, but you just wouldn't listen.
01:07:23So I decided to teach you a little less.
01:07:27See?
01:07:29He cried.
01:07:31You would never be good enough for James.
01:07:35He'll never get away with this.
01:07:37James wants nothing to do with you.
01:07:40We'll see about that.
01:07:43You can't control other people's feelings.
01:07:47You're such a bunny.
01:07:50Baby, Jimmy wanted to have a pet.
01:07:53Why else he would choose you over me?
01:07:56What we have is real.
01:07:58And you need to face the truth.
01:08:01Listen to me carefully, Bunny.
01:08:04If you truly care for James, you'll stay away from him.
01:08:08It's not a negotiation.
01:08:10It's a demand.
01:08:12James and I are married.
01:08:14And there's nothing you can do about it.
01:08:17Don't be too confident.
01:08:21Just yet.
01:08:29Mia!
01:08:31Hello, Jimmy.
01:08:33What's the hurry?
01:08:35You came as soon as you got the message, huh?
01:08:38I only send you the message to see how much you would sacrifice for Mia.
01:08:43Mia!
01:08:44Let her go.
01:08:46You want me?
01:08:47I'm here.
01:08:50You've got one minute, James.
01:08:52Your precious contract wife or the woman who's loved you all alone.
01:09:01Victoria.
01:09:04Why are you doing this?
01:09:06You're risking your own life.
01:09:09You just never believed that I truly loved you, right?
01:09:13I won't even have a life after tonight.
01:09:16But before anything happens, I'll get what I want.
01:09:25Please, put the gun down.
01:09:29You don't want to end up like this.
01:09:31Mia is the only one in love.
01:09:34No.
01:09:48Hey.
01:09:49It's over now.
01:09:51You're safe.
01:09:53I was so scared, James.
01:09:54I thought I'd never see you again.
01:09:58I know.
01:10:00I was scared too.
01:10:02But here we are.
01:10:05And I'll always protect you.
01:10:08You mean the world to me.
01:10:10I love you, James.
01:10:11I love you, James.
01:10:12I love you too.
01:10:17But...
01:10:19Why...
01:10:20Why did you betray me?
01:10:22Mia...
01:10:24I never wanted to hurt you.
01:10:26That was all around, and the last control.
01:10:30I didn't know how to handle it, so...
01:10:33I decided not to tell you, and I'm so sorry.
01:10:36You should have trusted me, James.
01:10:39I'm the...
01:10:41kind of...
01:10:42woman you can...
01:10:44fight with.
01:10:46Mia...
01:10:48Mia...
01:11:05Are you okay?
01:11:07You scared the hell out of me.
01:11:10It's okay.
01:11:12I feel better now.
01:11:14I'm sorry to have scared you.
01:11:17I guess...
01:11:19tonight's events took a lot out of me.
01:11:24I'm so sorry for...
01:11:26everything that has happened.
01:11:28I love you.
01:11:31And I guess...
01:11:33carrying a baby also takes away from my strength.
01:11:40What?
01:11:42What did you just say?
01:11:44Well...
01:11:46I've been having some...
01:11:48fainting incidents recently, so...
01:11:51I went to the hospital by myself, and...
01:11:56it looks like in eight months, you're going to become a dad.
01:12:03What?
01:12:05You are pregnant?
01:12:08Oh my God!
01:12:10I can't believe!
01:12:12I had no idea!
01:12:14You should have told me earlier!
01:12:16I can't believe we are becoming parents!
01:12:19This is the most exciting moment in my life!
01:12:21I knew you would be happy!
01:12:24James...
01:12:26with the baby coming...
01:12:28and the incidents behind us...
01:12:31I think it's time we come clean to our parents.
01:12:34They deserve to know the truth.
01:12:37And...
01:12:39we have to tell them...
01:12:41they have a grandchild on the way.
01:12:43You're right, Mia.
01:12:45It's time to be honest with them.
01:12:51I'm so happy!
01:12:53You know, Mia...
01:12:55I was thinking...
01:12:57I want a girl!
01:12:58She'll have your eyes and my smile!
01:13:00Oh, really?
01:13:02I'm imagining a boy...
01:13:04with your intelligence...
01:13:06and my sense of beauty.
01:13:08But...
01:13:10as long as the little one is healthy, I'm satisfied.
01:13:13I've never been more excited about the future.
01:13:14Me too, James.
01:13:16This journey...
01:13:18our journey...
01:13:20it's been a surprise in every sense of the word.
01:13:23Surprise can be a good thing, right?
01:13:25And maybe...
01:13:26just maybe...
01:13:28we'll have the best of both worlds!
01:13:36Breakfast in bed for my beautiful princess.
01:13:39Oh my God!
01:13:41Are you trying to spoil me?
01:13:42Maybe I am!
01:13:44You deserve it!
01:13:46This looks amazing!
01:13:48I love the nuggets!
01:13:51I believe in us, James.
01:13:54We've gone through a lot of challenges...
01:13:57and...
01:13:59come out even stronger.
01:14:01Tonight is the last step for us to become a real couple.
01:14:07I'm lucky to have you here by my side, Mia.
01:14:09It doesn't matter how angry they get upon hearing the news.
01:14:14We'll face it together.
01:14:18Mom...
01:14:20we need to tell you something about our marriage.
01:14:22Mom...
01:14:23we need to tell you something about our marriage.
01:14:31Our marriage started with the life to me of all of you.
01:14:35And...
01:14:37it was a business arrangement.
01:14:40But...
01:14:41over time...
01:14:42we fell in love with each other.
01:14:46We want to make it real.
