Short filmTranscript
00:00:00Bradley, I'm pregnant. You're going to be a father.
00:00:05What's she doing here? What do you think?
00:00:08No need to hide anymore. I'm leaving you for Catherine.
00:00:13Unlike you, I'm young and rich. I can give Bradley what he deserves.
00:00:18Catherine hired me to be vice president to her family's hospital.
00:00:21She's also way better in bed.
00:00:23What's that?
00:00:30She's pregnant?
00:00:31What?
00:00:32She must be faking it to trap you.
00:00:36No, it's real.
00:00:36I'm so desperate.
00:00:38Give it back. Stop.
00:00:40Give it back.
00:00:41Stop.
00:01:00What happened?
00:01:11The baby.
00:01:12Is the baby okay?
00:01:17I'm so sorry.
00:01:20We've lost the baby.
00:01:24So sorry.
00:01:25We're right here, sweetheart.
00:01:32We're right here.
00:01:41I won't let Bradley and that woman get away with this.
00:01:46I'm ready to come back, Dad.
00:01:48Well, revenge won't heal the heart.
00:01:50This isn't about revenge.
00:01:52This is about holding them accountable.
00:01:54Are you sure you're ready for this?
00:01:56I've been preparing for years, Mom.
00:01:58Okay.
00:02:00But there is a condition.
00:02:06I have an important announcement.
00:02:08My daughter, Mia Gerber, will be the new CEO of Gerber Corporation.
00:02:13Is Mia ready for such a big role?
00:02:15I've been concealing my identity to go undercover within the industry.
00:02:18I've learned our competitors from the inside.
00:02:21Trust me.
00:02:23I'm more than ready.
00:02:24Furthermore, Mia will marry Joshua Lane from Lane Holdings.
00:02:33Mia will marry Joshua Lane from Lane Holdings.
00:02:38There is a condition.
00:02:40You're going to have to marry Joshua Lane, the heir of Lane Holdings.
00:02:45Mia's never even met this guy before.
00:02:46It's a strategic alliance, Noah.
00:02:51It's what's best for our families and the company.
00:02:54I'll do it.
00:02:58I'll marry Joshua Lane if that's what it takes.
00:03:00And this alliance will strengthen our company and secure our future.
00:03:08Isn't Joshua Lane famous for being called the Ruffles?
00:03:19That's what I heard.
00:03:21And I think it'll be good for the company.
00:03:23I don't think it'll be good for the new CEO.
00:03:24Joshua, I was hoping we could...
00:03:47Not interested.
00:03:48Get lost.
00:03:48Man, you are brutal.
00:03:54That's the fifth girl you've turned down tonight.
00:03:57Hey, I heard you're getting hitched to Mia Gerber.
00:03:59Why didn't you turn her down?
00:04:01This marriage is what my parents want.
00:04:03Couldn't care less about her.
00:04:04Oh, come on.
00:04:05She's the heiress to the Gerber Corporation.
00:04:07There must be some perks to her.
00:04:09Perks are not.
00:04:09She'll learn quickly that I'm not one to be messed with.
00:04:12Gonna give her a hard time, huh?
00:04:14Let's just say that she's got something coming.
00:04:26Do you, Joshua Lane, take Mia Gerber for your lawfully wedded wife?
00:04:31I do.
00:04:34And you, Mia Gerber, do you take Joshua Lane for your lawfully wedded husband?
00:04:38I do.
00:04:41Uh, the rings?
00:04:51You may now kiss the bride.
00:05:05Let's get one thing straight, Mia.
00:05:07Mia, this marriage is a show for our family and the rest of the world.
00:05:11Don't expect any affection from me.
00:05:13Understood.
00:05:15And vice versa.
00:05:15My parents want to set up a dinner with us.
00:05:34My assistant will set it up.
00:05:35She can coordinate schedules with my assistant.
00:05:37Done.
00:05:38Joshua has always been so distant with people, unlike Alex here, who's so popular and charismatic.
00:06:07You should see all the women I can't stop chasing.
00:06:11Well, at least I don't have to worry if Alice can give me a grandson.
00:06:17But I wonder, Joshua, if you can even warm up enough to give me a child.
00:06:23We need an heir after all.
00:06:25Elinor, that's enough.
00:06:28I'm just saying, perhaps Alex is a better fit to leave Lane Holden.
00:06:34Quite the contrary.
00:06:36Actually, Joshua's very passionate, especially in the bedroom.
00:06:41No doubt that you'll have that heir soon.
00:06:44For your information, passion is not in my DNA, nor does it align with my personal brand.
00:06:57But still, thank you for standing up for me.
00:07:02I just didn't appreciate your stepmom's attitude.
00:07:04Get the campaign ready.
00:07:13I want that jerk out, Asa.
00:07:19Noah, hey.
00:07:21I need a favor.
00:07:22You're right.
00:07:27Alex and Elinor Lane are behind a smear campaign against Joshua.
00:07:31Blue Diamond PR is already involved.
00:07:33What agency are we using?
00:07:35We're still deciding.
00:07:37Bids are open for this year's contract.
00:07:40Perfect.
00:07:41I have a plan.
00:07:42I'm offering the Gerber Corporation's annual PR budget.
00:07:49It's one of the largest in the industry.
00:07:51That's an enticing offer, Ms. Gerber.
00:07:54What do you ask of me in return?
00:07:57I need you to withdraw from any campaign against Joshua Lane.
00:08:01I don't mind.
00:08:01I'll cover the cancellation fee.
00:08:09You have a deal.
00:08:09The Gerber Corporation account is too good to pass up.
00:08:14There's a little more.
00:08:16I need you to spread the word.
00:08:18Any PR firm that goes against Joshua Lane
00:08:21will be blacklisted from the Gerber Corporation
00:08:24and our allies.
00:08:26You got it.
00:08:27No one in this industry would be stupid enough
00:08:29to fight against the Gerber Corporation.
00:08:32Wonderful.
00:08:33Thanks.
00:08:34Looking forward to a fruitful partnership.
00:08:39I have evidence of Alex's scheme against you.
00:08:45But don't worry, I've already taken care of it.
00:08:49I always knew Eleanor and Alex to be after my position.
00:08:52I just didn't expect Alex to be this bold.
00:08:55How do you know about this?
00:08:57Alex struck me as opportunistic.
00:08:58A smear campaign is the easiest way
00:09:00to sway the shareholders' opinion.
00:09:01And Eleanor's background in PR
00:09:03made this move predictable.
00:09:04You're more perceptive than I thought.
00:09:08Why are you helping me?
00:09:13Our family's alliance is crucial.
00:09:15Protecting you means protecting the Gerber Corporation.
00:09:18It's all business.
00:09:22Business, right.
00:09:23Well, in that case,
00:09:25I should help you with your beef
00:09:26with Catherine and Bradley, right?
00:09:30How did you know about that?
00:09:32Didn't expect me to enter into the marriage
00:09:34without doing background checks.
00:09:36I just don't get what the big deal about your ex is.
00:09:38I mean,
00:09:40he cheated on you.
00:09:41So what?
00:09:44She must be faking it to trap you.
00:09:47How dare you?
00:09:51You had no right
00:09:52to dig into my past like that.
00:09:55I can take care of myself.
00:10:00What just happened?
00:10:04To your new position
00:10:06as Senior VP.
00:10:09And it's all thanks to my help, of course.
00:10:11Absolutely.
00:10:12You're my lucky charm, honey.
00:10:14Maybe.
00:10:17Imagine if I'd stayed with Mia.
00:10:22Poor and powerless.
00:10:22That's all she ever was.
00:10:24She's a joke.
00:10:26A stepping stone at best.
00:10:28Are you by my side?
00:10:29We are unstoppable.
00:10:41Catherine's Hospital
00:10:42is resisting our acquisition.
00:10:44Bradley, as the new Senior VP,
00:10:46he is leading the pushback.
00:10:48Do they know I'm the CEO yet?
00:10:50No.
00:10:50As per your request.
00:10:52Perfect.
00:10:53Keep at it.
00:10:58Now how do I pull this off?
00:11:00There are gaps in Mia's medical record
00:11:11right after her breakup.
00:11:13These are from the Gerber Corporation's
00:11:14own hospital.
00:11:15Only someone higher up from within
00:11:17can access it.
00:11:22I want to know what happened to Mia
00:11:23during that gap.
00:11:24After the breakup.
00:11:25Even if I know,
00:11:27why would I tell you?
00:11:28Mia helped me.
00:11:29But unless I understand
00:11:30that part of the puzzle,
00:11:32I won't be able to return her favor.
00:11:34To care for her?
00:11:37Don't dislike her?
00:11:40Now, Mia deserves someone
00:11:41who truly loves her.
00:11:43Not you.
00:11:45She's a grown woman.
00:11:46She knows what she wants.
00:11:48Nobody gets to tell her what she deserves.
00:11:49Especially not you.
00:11:50You can choose
00:11:59not to share the information,
00:12:01but you won't be helping her.
00:12:04Your choice.
00:12:08Alright, look.
00:12:11If you have to know,
00:12:13unfortunately,
00:12:15Mia had a miscarriage
00:12:16because of an accident
00:12:17involving Bradley and Catherine.
00:12:19How are you
00:12:38feeling?
00:12:41It's none of your business.
00:12:44Not that you would know
00:12:45what that means.
00:12:46I'm sorry for overstepping
00:12:48and being insensitive.
00:12:50I learned about your miscarriage.
00:12:52I had no idea.
00:12:53You didn't know?
00:12:55That doesn't excuse my behavior.
00:12:58I apologize.
00:13:00I may have overreacted.
00:13:02You were hurting.
00:13:03That's understandable.
00:13:04So you're not a robot.
00:13:06Like everyone says you are.
00:13:08Of course I'm not.
00:13:09Who says that?
00:13:10Everyone.
00:13:11Your family,
00:13:12your friends,
00:13:13your co-workers,
00:13:15enemies.
00:13:16I even heard the maids
00:13:17joking about it
00:13:18the other day.
00:13:20Fire them all.
00:13:21No, no.
00:13:22No, it's okay.
00:13:24They're allowed to joke.
00:13:25They've been doing
00:13:25a wonderful job.
00:13:28Besides,
00:13:28I think you should
00:13:29talk like this.
00:13:31It suits you.
00:13:34It's not funny.
00:13:38It's late.
00:13:38You're going to bed.
00:13:43Okay.
00:13:45Good night.
00:13:52Talk like this.
00:13:53Go ahead with plan.
00:14:07Short the stock
00:14:08of Catherine's company.
00:14:10I want to see them bleed.
00:14:20Mia,
00:14:21you need to see this.
00:14:22The stock
00:14:23of Catherine's hospital
00:14:24has been shortened
00:14:24dramatically.
00:14:25They're on the verge
00:14:26of bankruptcy.
00:14:27Just a week?
00:14:28How is this possible?
00:14:29Seems like a coordinated attack.
00:14:31Someone powerful
00:14:32is behind this.
00:14:36Joshua.
00:14:42Did you short
00:14:43Catherine's stock?
00:14:44Yes, I did.
00:14:46Why?
00:14:47Strictly for business.
00:14:48To protect
00:14:49our family's alliances.
00:14:50Your enemies
00:14:51are my enemies now.
00:14:52Thank you, Joshua.
00:14:54Actually,
00:14:54it's necessary.
00:14:55Just like you would do.
00:14:56Now,
00:14:56pay a little visit
00:14:57to Bradley and Catherine.
00:15:06Bradley,
00:15:07what are we going to do?
00:15:08They're taking everything.
00:15:10I can't believe
00:15:11this is happening.
00:15:13As of now,
00:15:14this hospital
00:15:14is under
00:15:15Gerber Corporation's control.
00:15:16Yes,
00:15:17the Gerber Corporation,
00:15:19as in my family's company.
00:15:20Mia Gerber?
00:15:21I thought
00:15:21you were Mia Whitlock.
00:15:23Whitlock was just a name
00:15:24I used
00:15:25to conceal my identity.
00:15:26You betrayed
00:15:27and hurt my wife.
00:15:29Now you're facing
00:15:29the consequences.
00:15:31I've resigned.
00:15:31You can't touch me.
00:15:33Resignation or not,
00:15:33Bradley,
00:15:34your career's over.
00:15:35I've seen to it
00:15:36that everyone
00:15:36in this industry
00:15:37won't touch you
00:15:38after what you've done.
00:15:40Mia,
00:15:41you know that
00:15:42I never meant to hurt you.
00:15:44This hospital
00:15:45is all that I have left.
00:15:46Please!
00:15:47No.
00:15:48That day that I fell,
00:15:51you stood there
00:15:52and watched.
00:15:53You made your decision then.
00:15:55Mia,
00:15:55can we talk?
00:15:56I know I hurt you deeply.
00:15:57I just want to apologize
00:15:58to make things right.
00:16:14Mia,
00:16:14I'm truly sorry
00:16:15about everything.
00:16:18I dreamt about you
00:16:19and the baby
00:16:19every day.
00:16:20I just couldn't
00:16:21bring myself
00:16:21to tell you this
00:16:22after the accident
00:16:23because I felt
00:16:24so ashamed of myself.
00:16:26Your apology
00:16:26can't undo
00:16:27what's been done,
00:16:28Bradley.
00:16:29I know.
00:16:30I just,
00:16:30I need you to know
00:16:32that I will always
00:16:33care about you
00:16:34deeply.
00:16:35you're really like
00:16:48they say.
00:16:50Tall,
00:16:51handsome,
00:16:52powerful.
00:16:53you know I can make you
00:17:02a very happy man.
00:17:06I do not engage
00:17:08with women
00:17:08who have no shame.
00:17:11Hands off.
00:17:12Catherine manipulated me,
00:17:18but now I realize
00:17:19she's nothing compared to you.
00:17:21We could start over.
00:17:22With your family's resources,
00:17:24I could help you grow the business.
00:17:25We could be parents again.
00:17:27Give us a chance.
00:17:28You know,
00:17:30if I wasn't 100% sure before,
00:17:32I am now.
00:17:34You're a piece of human trash.
00:17:38You're right.
00:17:38I'm doing it.
00:17:39But think about all the good memories
00:17:40we have.
00:17:41Think about more to come.
00:17:43Just say.
00:17:43Let go.
00:17:44Mia,
00:17:44don't.
00:17:44Bradley.
00:17:44I'm serious.
00:17:45Don't.
00:17:45Get the fuck out of here.
00:17:49Fuck out of here.
00:17:56I should have intervened
00:17:57before Bradley could touch you.
00:17:58It's fine, Joshua.
00:18:00Thank you for stepping in.
00:18:02Thank you for
00:18:03everything.
00:18:09Yeah,
00:18:09I followed through
00:18:10with all my business plans.
00:18:12Right.
00:18:13Yeah.
00:18:13The business plan.
00:18:16You know,
00:18:16you call me your wife
00:18:17for the first time.
00:18:19Don't look into it too much.
00:18:21Let's go.
00:18:22Actually,
00:18:23you know what?
00:18:25Now that all the revenge
00:18:26is done,
00:18:27I think I want to take
00:18:28some time alone
00:18:29to
00:18:30figure out my feelings.
00:18:33I understand.
00:18:40They've destroyed everything.
00:18:42We can't let them
00:18:43get away with this.
00:18:44What if we take
00:18:48Mia?
00:18:50A ransom would help us
00:18:51but hurt Mia.
00:18:54Yes.
00:18:56Abducting
00:18:56Mia Gerber.
00:18:58Let's see how
00:18:58Joshua Lane reacts then.
00:19:01But how will we get
00:19:02to Mia?
00:19:02I know that she always
00:19:03goes to this one spot
00:19:05alone.
00:19:06From what I know about her,
00:19:08she must be there
00:19:08right now.
00:19:09that's not a compliment yet.
00:19:13Bye-bye.
00:19:14Oh, my God.
00:19:44Hey, hey, hey, hey.
00:20:14Help!
00:20:22Thought you could get rid of us, Mia?
00:20:26You and Joshua will regret ever crossing us.
00:20:31Don't bring him into this, you bitch!
00:20:44That's for talking back to me.
00:20:52Look at you.
00:20:53Just as pathetic as the day you fell.
00:20:56Of course I could have saved you.
00:20:59But why would I?
00:21:01You and your baby are worth nothing.
00:21:04Joshua Lane?
00:21:11Listen up.
00:21:13We have Mia Gerber.
00:21:14You want her back?
00:21:15Get ready with a hefty ransom.
00:21:17I'll pay the ransom.
00:21:19But listen to me clearly.
00:21:21I will hunt you down and you'll wish you never crossed me.
00:21:24Well, based on the footage from Mia's car camera, it seems Bradley and Catherine are behind this.
00:21:37These are the possible locations where Mia could be.
00:21:41This one.
00:21:42Let's get you out.
00:22:00Let's get you out.
00:22:30Let's get you out.
00:22:32Let's get you out.
00:22:33Let's get you out.
00:22:34Let's get you out.
00:22:36Let's get you out.
00:22:38Let's get you out.
00:22:40Just stop.
00:22:42It's not worth it.
00:22:45Other matters have occupied my brain.
00:22:50I know that's not an excuse to forget about you, but I guess that's just life someday.
00:23:03Made you some soup.
00:23:17It's very unique.
00:23:24What is this?
00:23:26My mom's recipe.
00:23:27Before she passed away, she used to make it for me when I was sick.
00:23:30Thought it might comfort you.
00:23:32You must have made it wrong.
00:23:34It's wonderful.
00:23:35I don't know how to thank you enough.
00:23:36It's nothing.
00:23:37I just did what I had to do.
00:23:39Joshua.
00:23:40Is this still just a marriage of convenience for you?
00:23:42Excuse me, Mr. and Mrs. Lane.
00:23:43A guest has arrived.
00:23:44Her name is Susie Harper.
00:23:45Susie's back.
00:23:46Oh, I've missed you so much!
00:24:07Susie, it's been ages.
00:24:13Susie it's been ages. When's the last time we saw each other?
00:24:18Four years ago, before I went abroad.
00:24:22It's been too long. Welcome back, Sus.
00:24:24I came back just for you.
00:24:27Oh, there's so much... Hey!
00:24:30Susie, this is my wife Mia.
00:24:34Mia, this is Susie, an old friend of mine.
00:24:38So, you're the one Joshua had to marry.
00:24:41Oh, Susie, that's enough.
00:24:44Joshua and I have a special bond, you know?
00:24:48We've been friends since, like, forever.
00:24:51He means a lot to me. I want him to be happy.
00:24:55I think we all want that.
00:24:57Do you?
00:24:58Joshua and I talk often over the phone.
00:25:01He confides in me. I'm one of the few he truly trusts.
00:25:05He mentioned he was quite unhappy about the marriage.
00:25:09Right. Uh, well, it seems like you two have a lot to catch up on.
00:25:13So, I'll leave you to it.
00:25:19Susie, why would you say those things?
00:25:22I told you I have doubts before the wedding. Not since then.
00:25:26Joshua, you're clearly unhappy. I was just speaking up for you.
00:25:31I don't need you to look out for me.
00:25:34I'm sorry. I just...
00:25:37I was trying to help since you clearly didn't want the marriage.
00:25:44I don't mind it now.
00:25:46Do you like her?
00:25:48She's fine.
00:25:51This means I still have a chance.
00:25:54Joshua.
00:25:56If I had stayed by your side, you never would have had to marry a complete stranger like me and Gerber.
00:26:03I'm sure it hasn't been pleasant.
00:26:05Now that I'm back, you can always talk to me.
00:26:09Susie, you're a great friend.
00:26:11Of course.
00:26:12I'll always be there for you.
00:26:21How's it going?
00:26:24It's this marriage.
00:26:25It's Joshua.
00:26:26He's like a shadow.
00:26:27He's always there but never really close.
00:26:30You deserve someone who can give you all the love and appreciation you need.
00:26:36Remember, if you ever need anything, I'm here.
00:26:41Thank you, Noah.
00:26:45How can I live without you?
00:26:49Then I can't live without you.
00:27:00I'll do everything to protect you, Mia.
00:27:17Joshua.
00:27:32We can't be like this forever.
00:27:33We have to talk.
00:27:37Why don't you talk to Noah?
00:27:39Seems like you have plenty to say to him.
00:27:41I don't even know what that means.
00:27:42There's nothing between Noah and me.
00:27:44You and Susie, on the other hand.
00:27:47What?
00:27:49Whatever you think, I don't care.
00:28:07What's he doing here?
00:28:10Look, I'm here to deliver some documents to Mia.
00:28:14And if you ever hurt her, just know that I will protect her at all costs.
00:28:28And what exactly have you done to protect her?
00:28:31Seems like all talk but no action.
00:28:33What are you two doing?
00:28:37What's going on here?
00:28:38Joshua, why are you acting so rash?
00:28:39This is ridiculous.
00:28:40You invite him into our house just to talk to him?
00:28:42I didn't invite-
00:28:43Joshua!
00:28:45I'm sorry, Mia.
00:28:46I didn't mean to cause any grip between you two.
00:28:48It wasn't my intention.
00:28:49It's fine.
00:28:51Why are you here?
00:28:52I'm here to protect you and the company.
00:28:55I suspect that Dwayne Kaiser has been conspiring with Melody Healthcare.
00:29:01Is that Dwayne?
00:29:03The CEO of Melody Healthcare.
00:29:08Ms. Gerber, an emergency board meeting has been called.
00:29:11What?
00:29:12What?
00:29:19We need to talk about the leadership of this company.
00:29:22It is clear that Mia's recent decisions, well, they've been questionable.
00:29:28Acquiring Catherine Finney's Hospital was a big misstep.
00:29:36Now Melody's Healthcare is outpacing us.
00:29:39Mia, I'm sorry, but you're too young and inexperienced to be in this role.
00:29:44I believe under my leadership, our profits have already increased by 20% compared to last year.
00:29:52That's due to the overall market trend, not because of your leadership.
00:29:57My strategies have been more than effective.
00:30:00The Finley acquisition has potential long-term benefits, and our growth, by the way, is not just a fluke.
00:30:07This company, this board needs a leader with experience and vision, not someone learning on a job.
00:30:15As a senior VP, on behalf of all the employees with Gerber Corporation, we support Mia.
00:30:21I also have evidence that Dwayne Kaiser has been conspiring Melody Healthcare to undermine the company.
00:30:26I also have evidence that Dwayne Kaiser has been conspiring Melody Healthcare to undermine the company.
00:30:31What is this? What are you doing?
00:30:37These are communications between Dwayne and Melody Healthcare. He leaked our strategy.
00:30:45You're fired, Dwayne. Effective immediately.
00:30:48I've been with you since you've found the company.
00:30:50All these years I'm never the CEO, but you give it to your daughter?
00:30:54I've always known you were ambitious, but I never thought you would stoop this low.
00:30:57Your lack of trustworthiness is why you were never CEO.
00:31:03We built this company on integrity and trust.
00:31:06Values you clearly lack.
00:31:10Security, escort Mr. Kaiser out.
00:31:13Wait.
00:31:14Dean.
00:31:15Dean.
00:31:25Mia, we're so proud of you. You really handled the crisis well.
00:31:31You truly are a Gerber.
00:31:36Noah, I can't thank you enough.
00:31:38Of course. You know I'd do anything for you.
00:31:40You know, I never asked, but how did you get your hands on those documents?
00:31:46It all started with an anonymous tip.
00:31:49Someone delivered photos of Dwayne meeting with the owner of Melody Healthcare.
00:31:53And I intercepted the tip.
00:31:57This is your schedule for the week.
00:31:59And what's this?
00:32:01Seems to be about Mr. Kaiser.
00:32:02Okay, I'll take that too. Thanks.
00:32:03Anonymous. Who would do that?
00:32:17I don't know. But the photos led me to dig deeper.
00:32:21And eventually I found clear evidence of his betrayal.
00:32:23Can I see the photos?
00:32:33I think I might know who's behind this.
00:32:35But I need to confirm.
00:32:37Hey.
00:32:41Ethan.
00:32:43I need to talk to you about these photos.
00:32:45Is this you? In the reflection?
00:32:46Were you following Dwayne?
00:32:48Yeah, it's me.
00:32:50Joshua asked me to keep an eye on Dwayne.
00:32:51He's had his suspicions about Dwayne's loyalty for a while.
00:32:55We then delivered the photos.
00:32:58Mr. Lane. What a surprise.
00:33:02Should I tell Miss Lane you're here?
00:33:04No need to.
00:33:08Why couldn't Joshua just tell me about his suspicions?
00:33:12Joshua's a...
00:33:14He's a complicated man.
00:33:16He means well, but he struggles with expressing himself.
00:33:18He's never gone through such steps for anyone before Mia.
00:33:21This must mean he cares about you.
00:33:23He could just talk to me next time.
00:33:26Well, Joshua has his ways.
00:33:29He might not show it, but he cares deeply.
00:33:32I just ask that you...
00:33:35Don't hurt him.
00:33:37I won't.
00:33:38You're a loyal friend, Ethan.
00:33:40Joshua, I need to talk to you.
00:33:50It's about Dwayne Kaiser and Melody Healthcare.
00:33:53What about it?
00:33:55I know you sent Ethan to follow Dwayne.
00:33:57Why didn't you just talk to me?
00:33:59Just seemed like the best course of action at the time.
00:34:00Joshua, is there more to this marriage than the alliance?
00:34:05Did you do it because...
00:34:07No, no. It's nothing like that.
00:34:09I just couldn't have my wife being voted out as CEO on paper.
00:34:13It looked bad for me.
00:34:15So it's all about appearances?
00:34:17Yes, Mia.
00:34:18It's all it ever is.
00:34:19We agreed to a business arrangement.
00:34:21Joshua, I'm so tired of this.
00:34:24Of living in a fantasy where I never actually get to know you.
00:34:28I'm more than just a tool for business advancement or keeping up appearances.
00:34:36I want a divorce.
00:34:39I want a divorce.
00:34:44Are you sure about this?
00:34:45I deserve something real in my life, Joshua.
00:34:50Not this...
00:34:52facade.
00:34:54I deserve to be more than just a business arrangement in somebody's life.
00:34:58I want genuine happiness.
00:35:00I understand.
00:35:02If that's what you want.
00:35:07Joshua, please.
00:35:11Let's proceed with the divorce.
00:35:15You're welcome.
00:35:39You're welcome.
00:35:45Joshua.
00:35:52What are you doing to yourself?
00:35:55Mia.
00:35:57Mia?
00:35:59Don't leave. Don't leave.
00:36:00You're drunk.
00:36:01Please, help me take him to his car.
00:36:04No.
00:36:06I'll take him to my place. He shouldn't be alone.
00:36:10Okay.

00:40:40sorry
00:40:42Mia we have a problem
00:40:49Eleanor and Alex are plotting to make Alex the new CEO while Joshua's in a coma
00:40:53now even Joshua's father has been convinced
00:40:56so they're using Joshua's condition to their advantage
00:40:58I won't stand for it
00:41:00what's the plan
00:41:01I'm meeting with Mr. Lang
00:41:03he's a key shareholder of Lane Holdings
00:41:06his voice can sway their opinion
00:41:08thank you for agreeing to meet me on such short notice Mr. Lang
00:41:13I've always been curious about the famous Mia Gerber
00:41:16after all
00:41:17you're the one who led Gerber Corporation to the next level
00:41:19you're too kind
00:41:20I'm merely stating a fact
00:41:22not everyone in the second generation is as capable as you
00:41:25so
00:41:26tell me
00:41:28why do you want to see me
00:41:29is it about Alex being the new CEO
00:41:32you're a wise man Mr. Lang
00:41:34Joshua's vision has been the driving force behind Lane Holdings
00:41:38we cannot allow Alex to derail that
00:41:42I can't do anything at this time
00:41:44Joshua is out of commission
00:41:46it's best to have someone lead the company
00:41:49Gerald is not in good health
00:41:51after a stroke
00:41:52Alex is the only choice
00:41:55what if I told you
00:41:57there's another choice
00:41:59and what if I told you
00:42:02there's another choice
00:42:04I can be the interim CEO of Lane Holdings
00:42:07as Joshua's legal wife
00:42:09I can uphold his legacy
00:42:11and
00:42:11as you mentioned before
00:42:12I'm a very capable CEO in my own right
00:42:15your vote of course is crucial
00:42:17but
00:42:18more than anything
00:42:19people trust your judgment
00:42:21if you choose to have faith in me
00:42:23others will follow
00:42:24and I promise
00:42:25I won't disappoint
00:42:27can you run two companies at the same time
00:42:31I have a very capable team over at Gerber Corporation
00:42:34they'll keep things running smoothly
00:42:36even if I'm not there full time
00:42:37I'll devote my time to Lane Holdings
00:42:39until Joshua gets better
00:42:41what if he doesn't
00:42:43he will
00:42:45I admire your tenacity
00:42:47I'll do what I can
00:42:49thank you Mr. Lang
00:42:51I'll fight for you Joshua
00:43:10you did the same for me
00:43:14I will let you down
00:43:19given Joshua's current condition
00:43:26I propose
00:43:27Mia Gerber
00:43:28as the interim CEO
00:43:30of Lane Holdings
00:43:31Mia Gerber?
00:43:33she's from a different company
00:43:35how is she even qualified?
00:43:36Mia is Joshua's wife
00:43:38the legal heir
00:43:39she's proven her capabilities
00:43:41with Gerber Corporation
00:43:42combining the strengths
00:43:43of both companies
00:43:44and of her leadership
00:43:45will only make Lane Holdings strong
00:43:48this is absurd
00:43:49Mia is practically a stranger
00:43:51to our company's operations
00:43:53while I appreciate your concerns
00:43:56I think my track record speaks for itself
00:43:59and unlike Alex here
00:44:01who has had his hand in multiple
00:44:02questionable business dealings
00:44:05I offer a clean slate
00:44:07and a fresh perspective
00:44:09I agree with Mr. Lang
00:44:10Mia's appointment
00:44:12as interim CEO
00:44:13is the best course of action
00:44:14for now
00:44:15but that
00:44:17stop Alex
00:44:18Joshua I hope you're proud
00:44:24let's go
00:44:29and you can take over
00:44:32no consequences
00:44:32Mia
00:44:33I'm gonna make her pay
00:44:35won't be touching her
