00:00:00Fake boyfriends?
00:00:02Interesting.
00:00:09I just can't believe we did that.
00:00:13Mia, will you marry me?
00:00:15Yes!
00:00:17Oh my god!
00:00:20I can seem to.
00:00:23Perhaps this will help return in the room?
00:00:30I thought as much.
00:00:32It's me.
00:00:34You're bluffing my dog.
00:00:36She would never find out.
00:00:40Now this is what we're talking about, James.
00:00:44Anyone here?
00:00:46What do you want from me?
00:00:48Anyone here?
00:01:04What do you want from me?
00:01:05It's time to tell the truth, Richard, don't you think?
00:01:24Please, put the gun down.
00:01:27You don't want to end up like this.
00:01:30Mia is the only one I love.
00:01:35And if I could go on, go back to É.
00:01:41You want to see the second one you've seen in.
00:01:45I'm sorry, I can't even go back to the next one.
00:01:48You know what it's called?
00:01:49I can't even get rid of them.
00:01:50It's not a good one, but it's not a good one.
00:01:53I'm sorry.
00:01:54I can't even get rid of them, but I have to say it.
00:01:58MacAllen, neat.
00:02:00Okay.
00:02:01Marriage. Suffocating.
00:02:07Tell me about it.
00:02:11Sounds like you've got something you want to say.
00:02:15Family pressures, right?
00:02:19Wanna talk?
00:02:25My family have been on my case for years. It's like they have already chosen my future spouse.
00:02:32My family wants to plan my entire life.
00:02:41I'm Kalaniti.
00:02:43I'm James. James Turner, by the way.
00:02:48I'm Mia. Pleasure to meet you.
00:02:54To our endless battle.
00:02:56To my new comrade.
00:03:01James, right? Fancy seeing you here again.
00:03:05Mia, must be fake.
00:03:06Uh, that or you just come here a little too often.
00:03:12Scotch. Neat.
00:03:13Got it.
00:03:14Got it.
00:03:15How are things going on, Ryan?
00:03:16My mom calls me every single day to see if I'm bringing someone home for Thanksgiving dinner.
00:03:24And what was your response?
00:03:25Um, I said yes, just to stop her calls, but I don't think there's anyone. You?
00:03:27My parents are obsessed with my kids.
00:03:28Even Dom still seems to be a good friend of mine.
00:03:29I don't know.
00:03:30I don't know.
00:03:31I don't know.
00:03:32But if I'm single.
00:03:33Spongebob.
00:03:34I'm friends.
00:03:35I don't know.
00:03:36I'm young.
00:03:37We're young.
00:03:38And I don't know.
00:03:39But I'm in the same place.
00:03:40Yeah, I'm in the same place.
00:03:41Yeah, I'm in the same place.
00:03:42I'm in the same place.
00:03:43Yeah.
00:03:44And I'm in the same place.
00:03:45Oh, my mom calls me every single day to see if I'm bringing someone home for Thanksgiving
00:03:47dinner.
00:03:48And what was your response?
00:03:49I said yes, just to stop her calls, but I don't think there's any you.
00:03:52My parents are obsessed with my kids, even though I'm still single.
00:03:58Spongebob.
00:03:59Spongebob.
00:04:00Here, to our endless battle.
00:04:17Mia, I've been thinking, why don't we help each other out here?
00:04:30What do you mean?
00:04:37Maybe we can be the plus one for each other, so our families will stop pushing us.
00:04:43Fake boyfriends? Interesting?
00:04:47Only once, and we can be free for a long time.
00:04:52It's not what I usually do, but maybe it's exactly what I need right now.
00:04:59This night is just getting more interesting.
00:05:01Sounds like the craziest night I've ever had.
00:05:04Not yet. Wait till Thanksgiving.
00:05:07Okay, boyfriend. Why don't you introduce yourself more to me?
00:05:12Well, I own a real estate company. We work with many partners on their projects.
00:05:18You sure look like a boss. The scotch gives it away.
00:05:23Alright, enough about it. Tell me something about yourself.
00:05:26Well, I'm an artist and a gallery owner. Not to show off, but you've probably seen a lot of my work around Manhattan already.
00:05:37Wait, are you Mia Davis? That Mia Davis?
00:05:41In the flesh, darling.
00:05:45I understand the emergence, but this is not how negotiation works.
00:05:53I need this to be done in three days. Our investors are not gonna wait for us.
00:05:58Anderson, I assure you, we are doing everything we can.
00:06:03I trust you because you are the best I've got.
00:06:06We won't let you down.
00:06:09Hmm?
00:06:12Hey there.
00:06:38Mia, what a pleasant surprise.
00:06:40How did you have time to call me today?
00:06:43Is this a bad time?
00:06:45You sound like you've had a rough day.
00:06:47It was one of those days.
00:06:49Well, sounds like you could use a break.
00:06:52How about a drink to unwind later?
00:06:55Let me check.
00:06:59Yeah, I can really use that.
00:07:01I'll meet you at the same bar.
00:07:10Knowing my mom, she'll definitely want you to stay over.
00:07:15So we'll probably spend three days in one bedroom.
00:07:19After that, we'll be free to go back to our regular lives.
00:07:23Sounds like a plan.
00:07:25Here we go, James.
00:07:35Remember, we're a couple deeply in love.
00:07:39I've got it.
00:07:45Mom, I'm home!
00:07:48Mia!
00:07:51It's been so long.
00:07:53Mom, this is James, my boyfriend.
00:07:56Pleasure to meeting Mrs. Davis.
00:07:57Mia's told me so much about.
00:07:59Please, call me Maria.
00:08:02Common name.
00:08:03Help yourself with some cookies.
00:08:05Before I finish dressing, it's working.
00:08:10So far, so good.
00:08:12Let's keep it up.
00:08:19You know, I'm actually enjoying this day.
00:08:22Me too.
00:08:24I feel like we're a real couple.
00:08:28So, you two, tell me how you met.
00:08:32Of course.
00:08:35It was a charming little cafe on the 3rd Avenue.
00:08:39Neil was sitting alone, reading a chat for Eugenides.
00:08:43And I couldn't resist striking out the conversation.
00:08:46Oh, I met you.
00:08:49I'm so happy you guys met each other.
00:08:53It's been so long for me.
00:08:55I'm so happy you guys met each other.
00:08:57It's been so long for me.
00:09:03It's been so long to me.
00:09:05Bye.
00:09:06Bye, wait.
00:09:07Bye.
00:09:08I'm so happy to see you.
00:09:09Bye.
00:09:10Bye.
00:09:11Bye.
00:09:12Be always.
00:09:13I'm so happy for you.
00:09:14You're welcome.
00:09:16You're welcome.
00:09:17I'm happy to see you.
00:09:18You're welcome.
00:09:19I'm happy to see you.
00:09:20You're welcome.
00:09:21You're welcome.
00:09:22There aren't a few more people.
00:09:23We're welcome.
00:09:24We're welcome.
00:09:25You're welcome.
00:09:26You're welcome.
00:09:27In the house.
00:09:28Thanks, my friend.
00:09:29I'm happy.
00:09:30Me too.
00:09:31Come in.
00:09:36Good 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.
00:09:50How do you everything for my princess?
00:09:53Okay, I think the couple needs their alone time now.
00:09:58Okay, okay, just don't take too long. And why don't you get back to the city today?
00:10:12I 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 caught us in the bedroom.
00:10:21My heart was about to jump out when I heard that knock, but we made it.
00:10:29So, 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.
00:10:41I'm gonna lose my mind.
00:10:47Let's just share the night we have right now.
00:10:50Well, we still can.
00:10:58You know, James, it's nights like these that really make me appreciate the simple things in life.
00:11:08I feel the same.
00:11:10I know there's beauty in commitment, but...
00:11:13Shouldn't it be our own life trips to make?
00:11:16Exactly.
00:11:17I'd rather cherish these moments with you and my friends.
00:11:22Telling me to rush into a life?
00:11:25Raising kids in a house and giving up all of my freedoms?
00:11:30No, thank you.
00:11:36Wait.
00:11:38I have an idea.
00:11:40It might help both of us.
00:11:43I'm all yours.
00:11:45Thinking.
00:11:48What if we turn the tables on our families?
00:11:54Thinking.
00:11:55What if we turn the tables on our families?
00:12:01Please elaborate.
00:12:04What if we consider a contract marriage?
00:12:08A contract marriage?
00:12:10Yeah.
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.
00:12:24No feelings should be included.
00:12:26This is huge.
00:12:28I need to think about it.
00:12:31I know.
00:12:33It'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...
00:12:53Love and marriage are not supposed to be contractual.
00:12:57They should be based on emotions and...
00:13:00Connection that grows naturally.
00:13:04Get it, Mia. I do.
00:13:06But sometimes life doesn't follow our script.
00:13:08And we need to adapt to that.
00:13:10Our life won't change the bit.
00:13:12Just more freedom with this contract.
00:13:14But...
00:13:16What about the no emotions term?
00:13:18Should 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.
00:13:27It will make things difficult.
00:13:29Well...
00:13:31You do make a good point.
00:13:35I do want to take control over my own destiny again.
00:13:40But...
00:13:42We need to set boundaries.
00:13:44Conditions.
00:13:46We'll stick with friendship.
00:13:48Contractual partners.
00:13:50Agreed, Mia.
00:13:52I'll write the legal contract.
00:13:54And we should both be clear about all the terms.
00:13:56Oh, 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 script will take care of everything.
00:14:19Deal.
00:14:26I can't believe we're actually doing this.
00:14:33Yeah.
00:14:35We've got that for Mia.
00:14:39Let's go through this contract together.
00:14:42Okay.
00:14:46Separate bedrooms.
00:14:49No feelings, Claus.
00:14:51Um...
00:14:55And it's...
00:14:57Clear financial terms.
00:15:00Yep.
00:15:02We will be committed to each other from now on.
00:15:08Uh...
00:15:10Uh...
00:15:12Uh...
00:15:21I can't believe we did that.
00:15:33So...
00:15:35What's next?
00:15:37We'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...
00:15:45It's a lot to get done just to prove we're getting married.
00:15:48Yes.
00:15:49Then 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?
00:16:12Yeah.
00:16:14It's working.
00:16:15Mia.
00:16:19There is something I'm wanting to ask you tonight.
00:16:22Yes?
00:16:26Mia.
00:16:28Will you marry me?
00:16:30Oh my God, James.
00:16:32Yes!
00:16:36Oh my God.
00:16:45I can't believe we just did that.
00:16:59It's all part of the plan.
00:17:01I can't believe we just did that.
00:17:03It's all part of the plan.
00:17:04What about that?
00:17:15This is our first big show on the stage.
00:17:19We have to make sure that we look like a happy couple in front of everyone.
00:17:23Of course.
00:17:24Not mistake is allowed tonight.
00:17:29Not mistake is allowed tonight.
00:17:30Not mistake is allowed tonight.
00:17:31I can't believe we've got a happy one.
00:17:32heiße not magic.
00:17:33I don't know if we look like a happy one here.
00:17:34I'll wait for it.
00:17:35It's no such thing.
00:17:36Nothing.
00:17:37I know when I'm open.
00:17:38What do you think?
00:17:39What do you think?
00:17:40What do you think is my heart to tell?
00:17:41Another successful play.
00:17:56It's getting harder for me to tell between all this and the truth.
00:18:00I know, but we have to stay firm.
00:18:05Focus 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.
00:18:18Let's get some rest.
00:18:20Good night.
00:18:21Good night.
00:18:38Mia, are you okay?
00:18:42Please, open up.
00:18:44Talk to me.
00:18:47I can't do this, James.
00:18:50At the wedding, I saw everyone's faces.
00:18:54They were so happy and blessed us with their whole hearts.
00:18:59I feel like I betrayed every one of them.
00:19:03But we are already here.
00:19:08There is no way of going back.
00:19:11I saw their faces.
00:19:13They believed in us.
00:19:15It was all a huge lie.
00:19:18I can't imagine what would happen if they found out the truth.
00:19:23It's not easy for me either.
00:19:24But we have to hang in there.
00:19:28We can't let them down right now.
00:19:30I just wish it didn't have to be like this.
00:19:50I wish that to Mia.
00:19:52But I promise.
00:19:54We can't get through it.
00:19:56I promise.
00:19:56I promise.
00:19:56James, I have something that I want to say.
00:20:21Mia, we agreed.
00:20:28No feelings.
00:20:30I know, but...
00:20:40I know, but...
00:20:45Compliments of a friend.
00:20:49Please, enjoy your evening.
00:20:51James, what's this?
00:21:02James, what's this?
00:21:21James, what's this?
00:21:45James, what's this?
00:21:46James, what's this?
00:21:48James.
00:21:53James?
00:21:57Where are you?
00:21:59Right here, Mia.
00:22:01Is there any candle?
00:22:08James.
00:22:14So, any clue on that note?
00:22:18I hope you enjoyed the champagne I sent you, a gift to celebrate your fake wedding.
00:22:48Someone knows our secret, what should we do?
00:23:15You know, I've been thinking about the day we met.
00:23:20It feels like a lifetime ago.
00:23:26I 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.
00:23:38You too. I'm glad I met a real gentleman.
00:23:51Even though it's a dramatic fake wedding, I'm happy to have you here with me.
00:24:03It's not a fairy tale. It's a bloody reality.
00:24:08But, I still like it. It's our story.
00:24:33What's happening?
00:24:39We're stuck. What do we do?
00:24:42I need to be there on time.
00:24:46Let's call the building. They should come and fix this.
00:24:50There's no signal. We could be trapped in here for hours.
00:25:03We won't. Someone will notice the elevator went wrong and come to fix this.
00:25:09We just need to be patient.
00:25:16What's that for?
00:25:18Just to give us some strength. Friends can hurt too.
00:25:22Okay.
00:25:23I can't believe this is happening.
00:25:37Well, at least it's a short break from our complex life.
00:25:43You always find a way to be positive, don't you?
00:25:46James, what if people find out about our contract marriage?
00:25:55They'd be so disappointed.
00:25:58We are doing everything we can.
00:26:01And so far, we did good.
00:26:03Everyone is happy.
00:26:06I just think about how far we've come.
00:26:10Since the day we met, there was the gala, the proposal, the wedding.
00:26:16And now blackmail?
00:26:19It's like an endless spy game.
00:26:22I know.
00:26:24But 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, and then she can make fun of you some more.
00:27:16I'm sexy now.
00:27:19Maybe we should talk about what just happened? The moment was...
00:27:22I enjoyed it. There is something I never thought I would say.
00:27:28But it's not what we expected. I thought we got into this to avoid marriage.
00:27:32Mia, I have to tell you. I don't want to lie to myself or to you anymore.
00:27:38I care about you more than I should. I don't want to hide my feelings and pretend nothing is there.
00:27:45I'm in love with you.
00:27:46What is it?
00:27:47Why is it that I don't want to die?
00:27:48It's not what I want to do.
00:27:49I don't want to lie to myself or to you anymore.
00:27:51I care about you more than I should.
00:27:53I don't want to hide my feelings and pretend nothing is there.
00:27:59I'm in love with you.
00:28:08I actually feel the exact same way.
00:28:16I can't stop thinking about you all the time.
00:28:20Although we got into this relationship to avoid affection,
00:28:24I'm glad that fate brought us together.
00:28:28Let's tell everyone the truth.
00:28:30I'm sure they will understand.
00:28:32Maybe mad at first, but they will be happy for us in the end.
00:28:35Our families will be shocked when they find out.
00:28:39I know, Mia, but it's time to set things right.
00:28:42It should be our priority right now.
00:28:57James, our parents aside,
00:29:00I'm really worried about that blackmail that we received at the bar.
00:29:03However, who would be so interested in our personal matters?
00:29:08Mia, I have no idea.
00:29:11But I hired an investigator, hope she can bring me some valuable information.
00:29:15I have a feeling someone is watching us from the dark.
00:29:18We should have never gotten ourselves into this mess.
00:29:28This contract marriage was a stupid idea in hindsight,
00:29:32bringing us all of these unexpected problems.
00:29:35I chose this to live a better life, Mia.
00:29:37And yet, I feel that life is worse under the pretense.
00:29:49We will get ourselves out of this situation.
00:29:52We'll find the right time to tell everyone the truth to our marriage,
00:29:56and we'll for sure catch the person hunting us.
00:29:59I'll find the right time to tell everyone the truth to our marriage,
00:30:00and we'll for sure catch the person hunting us.
00:30:03Who's there?
00:30:29Anyone here?
00:30:42What do you want from me?
00:30:52You're exactly where I want you, Mia.
00:30:55Where am I?
00:30:58What did I do?
00:30:59I assure you, there's a misunderstanding.
00:31:03Please, just tell me what you want from me.
00:31:07Where are you only going to be concerned with?
00:31:09I just need you to be here, your wife.
00:31:11We can talk things out.
00:31:14You don't need to tie me to a chair.
00:31:16I will cooperate.
00:31:17If it is money, I can give it to you.
00:31:23Just let me go.
00:31:24Mr. Turner, it's time for you to decide.
00:31:51Maya's life depends on you.
00:31:53Don't bother.
00:31:54You won't recognize who I am.
00:31:56What matters is, Maya.
00:31:58You have 24 hours to prepare $5 million if you want to see her alive.
00:32:03Who are you, and what do you want?
00:32:06That is not a question for me to answer.
00:32:08Just do as I said.
00:32:10I can't arrange that much money in such a short time.
00:32:14That's not my concern.
00:32:16Mr. Turner, you can't put a price on love, can you?
00:32:20I need to be sure she's okay.
00:32:21Let me talk to her.
00:32:23That won't be happening.
00:32:24I swear, if you dare to touch her,
00:32:27I will hunt you down and pull out your eyes myself.
00:32:30I don't know what to do, Scott.
00:32:40They're asking for $5 million in 24 hours.
00:32:43I can't lose her.
00:32:45Well, figure it out, James.
00:32:47I'll do everything I can.
00:32:49I can't lose Mia.
00:32:53I thought the relationship between you two
00:32:55was strictly based on the contract.
00:32:57We found each other the one we have been looking for our whole life.
00:33:02Oh, no.
00:33:03This was not meant to happen.
00:33:06I have to find her.
00:33:07I can't stand to see her in danger.
00:33:10We will.
00:33:11But who will commit such a horrible crime?
00:33:15Anyone ring the bell?
00:33:17Mia wouldn't hurt anyone.
00:33:19I can assure you,
00:33:20this has something to do with that blackmail we received.
00:33:25Blackmail?
00:33:27Someone has been stalking us.
00:33:29They know about the contract marriage
00:33:31and threaten to expose us.
00:33:32Whatever it takes,
00:33:33I will hunt this person down.
00:33:39Mark, please.
00:33:41I need your help.
00:33:42Mia's life is in danger.
00:33:44I wish I could, James.
00:33:46Five million is a lot.
00:33:49I can't pull those resources
00:33:51in such a short time.
00:33:53Save it, Mark.
00:33:53When it comes to your turn,
00:33:55I dropped a lot of things to help you.
00:33:57You're a fucking nuisance.
00:33:59I guess our business partnership
00:34:00has also come to an end.
00:34:01I might be able to cash this out.
00:34:26Thank you for calling CPM Bank.
00:34:28Mr. Turner,
00:34:29how can we help you today?
00:34:32I have a certificate of deposit with your bank.
00:34:34I want to cash it out immediately.
00:34:37I understand the urgency.
00:34:39Please give us a moment.
00:34:48Can you get money for me in an hour?
00:34:51It's for an urgent matter.
00:34:52Sure, since this is a huge sum of money,
00:34:55I will be needing you to come over.
00:34:58I will be there in 20 minutes.
00:35:00Please get the cash ready by then.
00:35:02Yes, sir.
00:35:03All noted.
00:35:03Great.
00:35:04Is it ready?
00:35:21Yes.
00:35:22Give me the location.
00:35:24Boom!
00:35:24Boom!
00:35:34I can't thank you enough for saving my life, James.
00:35:42Do anything to keep you safe.
00:35:44We're in this together.
00:35:49I thought I'd never see you again.
00:35:53Swear to you.
00:35:54I'll protect you with no more.
00:36:04I want to give you both an update.
00:36:11We are investigating the lead we got from the drop-off point.
00:36:15Our main focus is on tracking down the kidnappers
00:36:18and bringing them to justice.
00:36:23Thank you, detective.
00:36:24We appreciate your efforts.
00:36:26I'm so, so sorry about all of this, James.
00:36:38It's not your fault.
00:36:40We'll get through this.
00:36:42Here we go.
00:36:43Here we go.
00:36:56It's been a while since we had a pissing room like this.
00:37:10Yeah.
00:37:11It's nice to get a break from all the chaos.
00:37:13Mia, you won't believe this.
00:37:30What is it?
00:37:32A company chose us to partner in a luxury project.
00:37:36They love my pitch.
00:37:37Oh my god, James, that's amazing.
00:37:39I'm going to call my employees to announce this news.
00:37:46And an after party later?
00:37:49You know me too well.
00:37:53Will you pick me up later for a little celebration?
00:37:57Absolutely.
00:37:58I'll meet you at home after work.
00:38:00Yeah, you know.
00:38:00Hmm.
00:38:09Yes, I need you to gather the people online for a meeting.
00:38:25We got that project and we need to present it to the client this afternoon.
00:38:29Wow, that's fantastic.
00:38:31I will gather that down.
00:38:39Thank you all for your time.
00:38:49I'm eager to bring my team on board to execute this project.
00:38:54Before I finish, I'm just curious.
00:38:57Why you guys chose us out of all the companies in the world?
00:39:00Our president insisted you were the perfect fit.
00:39:05She said you're an old friend.
00:39:07An old friend?
00:39:08I'm not sure I know who it could be.
00:39:14You'll find out soon enough, James.
00:39:17For now, focus on getting the job done.
00:39:25What's wrong, James?
00:39:55How could that be?
00:40:03I don't know, but we are going to find out soon.
00:40:16Samantha, have you found anything?
00:40:19I have been waiting ages to hear from you.
00:40:21Hope you have news that I want to hear.
00:40:24James, 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. Details, please.
00:40:36We managed to trace the source of the blackmail at times we found a connection to an individual named Richard Kingsley.
00:40:43Richard Kingsley? Never heard that name. And why would he do this?
00:40:48We are still walking on that part. We'll gather more evidence and get to the bottom of this.
00:40:54Thank you, Samantha. Keep me posted on any updates. I want to know everything about Richard Kingsley and his motives.
00:41:01Of course, we are so close to unraveling this mystery.
00:41:08I received these pictures of you in the apartment. I tried to call you many times and you didn't answer. I thought something happened to you.
00:41:27I'm so sorry. I've been so engrossed in my painting. Everything's okay.
00:41:34I'm just glad you're okay.
00:41:36I'm safe and sound. Thank you for worrying about me so much.
00:41:41Samantha, 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.
00:41:58You know, it's moments like these that really make me appreciate having you in my life, James. Contract or not.
00:42:06I feel the same way, Mia. I won't ever want to lose you.
00:42:13I've been working on this for a few weeks. It may not be to everyone's taste, but it means a lot to me.
00:42:23It's wonderful. You're really talented.
00:42:27Thank you so much for your support. It means the world to me.
00:42:36Hello?
00:42:37James, I trust you are well. I wanted to inform you that there is an urgent meeting scheduled regarding the latest project we are partnering up on.
00:42:57Sure. Where should we meet? I can rearrange some work to make it.
00:43:05That's great. Your expertise and insights have been invaluable to us.
00:43:11I'll be at your office at 3 p.m. and we can go over all the details.
00:43:16Thank you for your recognition. I'm more than happy to lead this project to our huge success.
00:43:27Hi. I'm just calling to check if we should reschedule today's meeting.
00:43:45My apologies, James. I wouldn't be able to make the meeting myself due to some unexpected events, but our president is on her way to meet with you herself.
00:43:58Wow. I was not aware of that.
00:44:01Maybe you can catch up with each other. It's a great opportunity. She surely is very excited about this.
00:44:08Me too.
00:44:38I'm James Turner. You're...
00:44:48Jimmy? Don't you remember me?
00:44:55I'm sorry, but I can't seem to.
00:45:00Perhaps this will help you to remember?
00:45:08I thought as much. It's me, your beloved Mabel.
00:45:16Mabel? What the...
00:45:38You know, Mabel, next year is going to be a whole new world to me.
00:45:45I know, babe. I can't believe you're graduating. Time did fly.
00:45:51Life after college. It'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.
00:45:59I'm sure nothing can stop you from the goal.
00:46:09I can't wait to graduate so we can get married.
00:46:13Yeah, I know.
00:46:16Did you lock the door?
00:46:17Of course I did.
00:46:21Hope you won't change after you leave.
00:46:24I won't.
00:46:29I won't.
00:46:39Mabel?
00:46:41James, 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.
00:46:49Mabel? What are you doing here?
00:47:05It's Victoria.
00:47:07And for business, of course, darling.
00:47:14What are you playing here?
00:47:16What's up with all the charade?
00:47:17Let's say I wanted to see how have you been, James.
00:47:24You know, for the old time's sake.
00:47:28Old time's sake? You 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.
00:47:41How did you become the president of this company? What are you hiding?
00:47:48A woman like me can get whatever I want.
00:47:52It was just a little trick.
00:47:54See?
00:47:56I helped you got this project.
00:47:58I've missed you, James.
00:48:00Missed us.
00:48:01Missed us.
00:48:02We should be together.
00:48:05I'm the only one who can help you.
00:48:08No, Victoria. I won't let you manipulate. Not again.
00:48:14You have always been a challenge, James.
00:48:19This is not how I imaged our reunion. If you come here to talk about that project, let's get to it. Otherwise, you should leave.
00:48:32Don't be so harsh. You want business? We'll talk about business.
00:48:40Let's get professional.
00:48:43James, the reason I chose you is not only because of our past. I trust you and your ability. I know what you're capable of.
00:48:54Really?
00:48:55Oh, please. Put our history behind, will you? I'd pay responsibility to my company too, okay? I didn't take this job for fun.
00:49:08Fine. Let's be clear. I won't do anything that goes against my principles or the law.
00:49:17Agreed, James. We'll keep it strictly professional.
00:49:25I don't want to be serious about it.
00:49:29I don't want to go against my principles.
00:49:32I don't want to argue.
00:49:34I should believe that the violettes are gonna' quite well.
00:49:36You think the violettes are gonna' quite all.
00:49:43You're not going against it, or you're not going against the violettes, or you're not going against them.
00:49:47Scott, you won't believe what just happened.
00:49:48What's the matter?
00:49:50What's the matter?
00:49:55Wait, Mabelle? Your ex-girlfriend from college? You haven't seen her in years, right?
00:50:06That's the one. She's now going by Victoria and she's the president of this major corporation.
00:50:13She wants my help on a project. I can't shake 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. Will you help me, Scott?
00:50:28Of course. Happy to help. She wants you involved in a real estate project.
00:50:33But it's more than just business, I'm sure of it.
00:50:36I have the same feeling. Nothing is ever pure about her.
00:50:39I don't want Riyadh to worry about this. She's working on an important artwork.
00:50:44And I promise I'll protect her.
00:50:47Of course. I'll try my best to find out Victoria's true intent.
00:50:53Thanks, man. What should I do without you?
00:50:55James, are you okay? You seem a little bit off tonight.
00:51:12Sorry to make your word, babe. Just stuff with work, you know.
00:51:16All right. It's just that we've been through a lot together.
00:51:21You don't need to hide anything from me.
00:51:24If you want to talk about something, we can figure it out together.
00:51:30Babe, it shouldn't worry you. I can handle it myself. Trust me.
00:51:34Okay. Just 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. You focus on your beautiful project and leave everything else to me.
00:51:52James, we're one. There's nothing that we can't handle together.
00:52:04Hi, Jimmy.
00:52:08Victoria.
00:52:10What an unexpected surprise.
00:52:12I don't recall any business meeting with you today.
00:52:18I'm just visiting an old friend.
00:52:21I've moved on with my life. I have Mia and she means everything to me.
00:52:26Oh, please, James.
00:52:28You wouldn't let a college flinch cross your judgment after all these years, right?
00:52:35Spare me the details. You betrayed me with my own roommate.
00:52:40What did you expect me to do, James?
00:52:43You were leaving college and I wouldn't survive alone with a blood-sucking family.
00:52:48I need someone to back me up. I was a child.
00:52:53I don't care about your reasons anymore, Victoria.
00:52:57I got over you a long time ago.
00:53:00So cut wherever you're playing here.
00:53:04Come back here, dummy.
00:53:07I don't ever want to meet you again outside of our normal business arrangements.
00:53:17James, I never said I wanted to be your wife.
00:53:21I just want to be in your life.
00:53:23And you are coming with us to check the new site for our project.
00:53:33It's required by our partnership contract.
00:53:42Yeah, I've got a business trip coming up.
00:53:46It's a sudden opportunity and I need to leave for a few days.
00:53:50Oh, really? That's unexpected. When do you leave?
00:53:55Tomorrow morning. I know it's a short notice, but I'll be back before you know it.
00:54:02All right, James. Just be safe and don't overwork yourself.
00:54:07I will. I will. I'll miss you so much.
00:54:27James, you've had quite a bit.
00:54:31James, you've had quite a bit. Is everything all right?
00:54:37I'm just trying to relax.
00:54:41You've had enough tonight, James.
00:55:06Let me make sure you're comfortable.
00:55:12Doria, what are you doing?
00:55:15Don't you worry. We'll have a little chat.
00:55:19You're safe with me.
00:55:23What do you want?
00:55:26You, James.
00:55:28I want you.
00:55:31I want all of you.
00:55:33Your body, your love, and even your soul.
00:55:37Stop it. I'm... I'm married.
00:55:46I don't mind.
00:55:48Or maybe this makes you want your norm.
00:55:55You enjoy it, don't you?
00:55:58I know exactly how to please you.
00:56:01Yeah, I can do it there.
00:56:04Oh, come on, darling.
00:56:08We all know about your little contract.
00:56:11Besides, she would never find out.
00:56:18Now this is what we're talking about, James.
00:56:20What the hell happened?
00:56:40I can't believe I'll ever get this far.
00:56:45Don't, baby. What's wrong?
00:56:47Victoria, this is a mistake.
00:56:51Did you set me up?
00:56:52Why are you laying next to me?
00:56:55Oh, you were just so energetic.
00:56:59Stop the games. I'm serious.
00:57:01I don't love you and don't want to have anything to do with you.
00:57:04I don't want to have anything to do with you.
00:57:09Well, well, let's say we had a stunning night and I saved some pictures for memories.
00:57:22Delete those pictures right now.
00:57:24Why don't you come here and make me?
00:57:31You're playing with fire.
00:57:33I won't be blackmailed or manipulated.
00:57:35Delete them now.
00:57:42You're just no fun, James.
00:57:44I want you to step away from my life.
00:57:51This can happen again.
00:57:54We'll see about that.
00:57:56Oh, Jimmy, Jimmy.
00:58:11You can never run away from me.
00:58:13Oh, my God.
00:58:18James, you're home.
00:58:20I miss you too, babe.
00:58:22It's good to be home.
00:58:23Tell me everything about your trip.
00:58:25It was a normal business trip.
00:58:27Nothing special.
00:58:29Let's not talk about it.
00:58:30I just want to enjoy the moment with you.
00:58:34Okay, sure.
00:58:36I'm just so glad you're home.
00:58:43Hello?
00:59:00Hello, Mia.
00:59:01Who's this?
00:59:04I guess Jimmy didn't tell you about me.
00:59:07I'm Victoria, the president of the company James is presently partnering in.
00:59:13Okay.
00:59:14How may I help you?
00:59:15You see, Jimmy and I have come a long way, and since you're not really married to him,
00:59:22so I guess there is no harm in stepping in.
00:59:25What do you mean?
00:59:26You see, James is mine, and mine alone.
00:59:30If he will kindly excuse us so we can be together, that will be great.
00:59:36He would never like someone like you.
00:59:38Oh, please.
00:59:39I'm sorry.
00:59:40I'm sorry.
00:59:41He showed lots of love to me not long ago.
00:59:43He surely had no time to think of you.
00:59:46I'll send you the pictures.
00:59:48Hope you enjoy them.
00:59:58Impossible.
01:00:00He would never do this to me.
01:00:01Hey, what's wrong?
01:00:13Nothing.
01:00:16How was your day?
01:00:17How was your day?
01:00:18Oh.
01:00:20She's as usual.
01:00:24Who is Victoria?
01:00:28Victoria?
01:00:29Where did you hear that name from?
01:00:31She called me James.
01:00:35She said things.
01:00:38Things I can't believe.
01:00:45Mia, it's...
01:00:47Can you explain?
01:00:48You have to know you're the one and the only one I love.
01:00:58Tell me the truth, James.
01:01:01Is she important to you?
01:01:03She's my ex from college and also my current business partner.
01:01:20And what about this?
01:01:21Is this part of your business?
01:01:23Is this part of your business?
01:01:29We...
01:01:33We had a businessman.
01:01:34She set me up.
01:01:37I made a mistake.
01:01:40But it's not how it looks like.
01:01:42I love you.
01:01:43And I don't want her to ruin us.
01:01:47Tell me the truth, James.
01:01:50What happened that night?
01:01:53I tried to stop her.
01:01:59I was...
01:02:02too drunk and also confused.
01:02:07I don't know if I can trust you anymore, James.
01:02:11You put our relationship on edge.
01:02:14I'm so sorry.
01:02:15I'll do everything it takes to make this right.
01:02:20Please, don't give up on us.
01:02:23I need some space.
01:02:29Please, just...
01:02:32Leave me alone.
01:02:33I need some space.
01:02:34I need some space.
01:02:51Samantha? Found anything?
01:02:52Yes, I got a lead.
01:02:54It's been a challenging investigation.
01:02:56But 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.
01:03:10He's been stalking your life, collecting information, and attempting to get her.
01:03:15He 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. I 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.
01:04:06It'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.
01:04:23Fine.
01:04:25Fine. It was Victoria.
01:04:27Victoria.
01:04:28How did she convince you to do this?
01:04:30She 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.
01:04:50You're such a clown.
01:04:51James.
01:05:01I've been seeing you.
01:05:05I thought someone never would see me again, huh?
01:05:09Missed me already?
01:05:11Victoria.
01:05:13I want answers.
01:05:15Why did you hire Richard to stalk us?
01:05:19Richard?
01:05:22Never heard any Richard in my life.
01:05:24I know it was you.
01:05:26He told me everything.
01:05:31Okay.
01:05:32It was me.
01:05:35But I did it for us.
01:05:38For us?
01:05:40I don't know there isn't us.
01:05:42I've always loved you, Jimmy.
01:05:51I just want to be back together with you.
01:05:53I just want to be back together with you.
01:06:00Here is the plan.
01:06:04We need to kidnap Mia without anyone tracing back to us.
01:06:10We are professionals.
01:06:12We know how to follow 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.
01:06:27We understand you get which one.
01:06:47What?
01:06:47Hello?
01:06:57Who's there?
01:06:58My, my, Mia.
01:07:07What a tangled web we weave.
01:07:13It's me, Victoria.
01:07:16What do you want?
01:07:18I warned you to walk away, but you just wouldn't listen.
01:07:24So I decided to teach you a little less.
01:07:28See?
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.
01:07:41We'll see about that.
01:07:44You can't control other people's feelings.
01:07:48You're such a bunny.
01:07:49Baby Jimmy wanted to have a bet.
01:07:53Why else he would choose you over me?
01:07:57What we have is real.
01:07:59And you need to face the truth.
01:08:03Listen to me carefully, Bunny.
01:08:05If you truly care for James, you'll stay away from him.
01:08:09It'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.
01:08:16Don't be too confident.
01:08:22Just yet.
01:08:30Mia!
01:08:30Hello, Jimmy.
01:08:32What's the hurry?
01:08:36You came as soon as you got the message, huh?
01:08:39I only send you the message to see how much you would sacrifice for Mia.
01:08:43Mia!
01:08:45Let 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.
01:09:02Why are you doing this?
01:09:07You'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.
01:09:17But before anything happens, I'll get what I want.
01:09:26Please, put the gun down.
01:09:29You don't want to end up like this.
01:09:32Mia is the only one in love.
01:09:34I don't want to end up like this.
01:09:48Hey.
01:09:49It's over now.
01:09:51You're safe.
01:09:53I was so scared, James.
01:09:56I thought I'd never see you again.
01:09:58I know, I was scared too.
01:10:03But here we are.
01:10:06And I'll always protect you.
01:10:08You mean the world to me.
01:10:11I love you, James.
01:10:12I love you too.
01:10:18Why?
01:10:20Why did you betray me?
01:10:21Mia.
01:10:22I never wanted to hurt you.
01:10:26That was all I want and I lost control.
01:10:30I didn't know how to handle it, so I decided not to tell you and I'm so sorry.
01:10:36You should have trusted me, James.
01:10:40I'm the kind of woman you can fight with.
01:10:46Mia.
01:10:48Mia.
01:10:48Are you okay?
01:11:07You scared the hell out of me.
01:11:10It's okay.
01:11:11I feel better now.
01:11:13I'm sorry to have scared you.
01:11:17I guess tonight's events took a lot out of me.
01:11:24I'm so sorry for everything that has happened.
01:11:28I love you.
01:11:31And I guess carrying a baby also takes away from my strength.
01:11:36I'm so sorry for everything that has happened.
01:11:40What?
01:11:42What did you just say?
01:11:44Well, I've been having some fainting incidents recently, so I went to the hospital by myself and
01:11:54And it looks like in eight months you're going to become a dad.
01:12:04What?
01:12:06You are pregnant?
01:12:09Oh my god!
01:12:11I can't believe!
01:12:12I had no idea!
01:12:14You should have told me earlier!
01:12:17I can't believe we're becoming parents!
01:12:19This is the most exciting moment in my life!
01:12:22I knew you would be happy.
01:12:26James, with the baby coming and the incidents behind us, I think it's time we come clean to our parents.
01:12:34They deserve to know the truth. And we have to tell them they have a grandchild on the way.
01:12:42You're right, Mia. It's time to be honest with them.
01:12:52I'm so happy.
01:12:53You know, Mia, I was thinking I want a girl. She'll have your eyes and my smile.
01:13:00Oh really? I'm imagining a boy with your intelligence and my sense of beauty.
01:13:08But as long as the little one is healthy, I'm satisfied.
01:13:13I've never been more excited about the future.
01:13:15Me too, James.
01:13:17This journey, our journey, it's been a surprise in every sense of the word.
01:13:23Surprise can be a good thing, right? And maybe, just maybe, we'll have the best of both worlds.
01:13:29We'll have the best of both worlds.
01:13:37Breakfast in bed for my beautiful princess.
01:13:40Oh my god.
01:13:42Are you trying to spoil me?
01:13:44Maybe I am. You deserve it.
01:13:47This looks amazing. I love the nuggets.
01:13:52I believe in us, James.
01:13:53We've gone through a lot of challenges and come out even stronger.
01:14:01Tonight is the last step for us to become a real couple.
01:14:08I'm lucky to have you here by my side, Mia.
01:14:10It doesn't matter how angry they get upon hearing the news.
01:14:16We'll face it together.
01:14:18Mom, we need to tell you something about our marriage.
01:14:26I'm going to start with the life to heal all of you.
01:14:35And it was a business arrangement, but over time we fell in love with each other.
01:14:45We want to make it real.
01:14:49And we'd like to have your blessing for real this time.
01:14:55Well, your marriage, contract or not, has looked pretty real to me from the very beginning.
01:15:03And I'm glad you guys are brave enough to admit the mistakes.
01:15:10And go on with your real happy marriage life.
01:15:16Thank you for understanding, Mom.
01:15:20I'll always be there for her.
01:15:23And we have a new member coming to the family soon.
