00:00:00Mr. Powell, what are you doing here?
00:00:29You don't seem too thrilled to see me on your birthday.
00:00:33Of course I am, which is what you're supposed to be on a business trip.
00:00:37Since when have I ever missed your birthday? Not a single one since you were 18.
00:00:41Wow, Madeline! Your sugar daddy squirrels you rotten.
00:00:45That diamond must be worth a fortune.
00:00:47Stop it, Joanna. He's not my sugar daddy.
00:00:50Nick is just looking after me like he promised my father before he passed away.
00:00:54Thank you for always being so kind to me.
00:00:59Nicholas treats you way better than Michael.
00:01:02I mean, he didn't even get you a birthday present. He didn't even say happy birthday.
00:01:06You should dump him already.
00:01:07Stop it, Joanna. I've already said yes to Michael's proposal. Can you stop putting him down?
00:01:12You said yes to Michael's proposal?
00:01:15Yes. Do you think it's too soon?
00:01:19Um...
00:01:20A proposal without a ring. It didn't seem serious to me.
00:01:23Besides, didn't your dad arrange a marriage for you before he died?
00:01:27Aren't you gonna go through with it?
00:01:29No. There's no way. I've never even met the guy. I have no idea of who he is.
00:01:36What if that guy is me?
00:01:41Wait, Nick. You and my father were tight, right? You must know who he was.
00:01:46Yeah. I do.
00:01:48Great. Then help me call it off.
00:01:52Are you sure about that?
00:01:54Yes. Michael's the only one I want to marry.
00:02:00If you're happy, I'm happy.
00:02:03Great. I'm gonna call him.
00:02:14Oh, babe.
00:02:16That sounds like... Michael.
00:02:25I wish you would just make up your mind and dump her already.
00:02:28Can't you see? I am the one that you want.
00:02:31I thought we were just having fun. Aren't we?
00:02:35Michael Lambert! You proposed to me yesterday, and today you're here with someone else.
00:02:44Boss.
00:02:45Did you tell Madeline about her dad's wishes?
00:02:49She's not marrying me.
00:02:51But you've been hanging on to Madeline all this time.
00:02:54Why don't you just tell her how you feel?
00:02:56Well, she's getting married, but to someone else.
00:03:01Look, if the guy truly cares for her, I'll let that be.
00:03:07How could you betray me?
00:03:12Madeline.
00:03:13How could you betray me?
00:03:14Betray you? We've been seeing each other for three months.
00:03:17How could you betray me?
00:03:18Betray you? We've been seeing each other for three months.
00:03:21And you don't even let me touch you.
00:03:23I thought the proposal would change things, but then you say we have to wait until after marriage.
00:03:27Come on.
00:03:28You can't blame Michael.
00:03:30He's been holding back for ages.
00:03:32Otherwise he wouldn't have found fun outside of the relationship.
00:03:36This is terrible.
00:03:40Stop pretending, Madeline.
00:03:42You've been seeing your godfather on the sly, haven't you?
00:03:45That's why you wouldn't let me touch you.
00:03:54If you mess with Madeline again, next time won't be so pretty.
00:03:59Come on.
00:04:13Madeline.
00:04:14You just vanished after the call.
00:04:17Julianna.
00:04:19Julianna.
00:04:28He proposed just so he could sleep with me.
00:04:33I thought he was the one.
00:04:35Come on.
00:04:37Stop crying.
00:04:38Michael's a jerk, and he already has someone new.
00:04:41Why waste tears on him?
00:04:43Yeah, right.
00:04:45Michael's a scumbag.
00:04:48He broke my tears.
00:04:52He even said I slept with Nicholas.
00:04:56I'll find someone.
00:04:58Maybe Val will choose me.
00:05:05Look, at home, I'll take care of Madeline.
00:05:08Okay.
00:05:09Okay.
00:05:13Michael dumped me.
00:05:15Okay, just forget about him, alright?
00:05:17You got me here.
00:05:18I'm not going anywhere.
00:05:31I need Madeline.
00:05:33You are wasted. Let's go home.
00:05:35No.
00:05:36No, I need a man.
00:05:38Stop it.
00:05:50Take her home. Oak Street.
00:05:52No, home is the last place I want to go.
00:05:56Okay.
00:06:02My place first.
00:06:04Okay, boss.
00:06:08Okay.
00:06:14Okay.
00:06:17How about you give me another birthday surprise?
00:06:33What are you doing?
00:06:34I'm not drunk.
00:06:37Look at me.
00:06:38I am not Michael.
00:06:40No, you're Nicholas.
00:06:41Stop it.
00:06:42You're drunk.
00:06:44You're boring.
00:07:07Nick, my godfather?
00:07:09I can't believe I slept with him.
00:07:12I've got to leave before he wakes up or this will be super awkward.
00:07:37Today is going to be the day I ask her.
00:07:39Today is going to be the day I ask her.
00:08:09Where'd you disappear to last night?
00:08:20I got too drunk and stayed at a friend's house.
00:08:25What's that?
00:08:27It's a mosquito bite.
00:08:30I don't think so, young lady.
00:08:33Did you go on a date with your boyfriend last night?
00:08:36No.
00:08:38I really don't think Michael's the right choice for you.
00:08:42We broke up.
00:08:47You know what?
00:08:49Maybe this is the perfect time.
00:08:51Remember your father set you up with someone?
00:08:53But I thought that was off.
00:08:55I've never even met the guy.
00:08:56I can't get married.
00:08:57That's crazy.
00:08:58He said it was off.
00:09:01He's been waiting for you.
00:09:02But don't worry.
00:09:03You know him.
00:09:04Trust me.
00:09:05You won't regret it.
00:09:07But you're not the one getting married.
00:09:08How can you make such promises?
00:09:10No more excuses.
00:09:11He's on his way.
00:09:12So get yourself together.
00:09:13But...
00:09:14He's here.
00:09:15Get the door.
00:09:16There is no way I'm marrying someone I've never met before.
00:09:17Mr. Poe.
00:09:18What are you doing here?
00:09:20Wait.
00:09:21Are you my fiance?
00:09:22You knew?
00:09:23No.
00:09:24I certainly did not.
00:09:25Oh.
00:09:26I didn't know.
00:09:27I didn't know either.
00:09:28Maybe.
00:09:29I'll try to see if I can find anything to make you happy.
00:09:36I don't have a boyfriend.
00:09:47You don't?
00:09:48Well, do you want me on?
00:10:03Are you going to check with Nicola Sunny?
00:10:08What's wrong, sweetie? You were smitten with him when you met him at your 18th birthday. I thought it was love at first sight.
00:10:15Mom, I thought he was just Dad's friend then. I didn't know he was my fiancé.
00:10:26Well, now you do.
00:10:30What? You don't like him?
00:10:35It's not that I don't like him. I just...
00:10:41We'll get to know him better.
00:10:45Well, I'll leave you to it and get back to my room.
00:10:57Hey, look at me. What's wrong?
00:11:02I just... I didn't expect you to be my fiancé.
00:11:07You didn't seem too bothered by that last night when you were pushing me onto the bed.
00:11:12Stop it. My mom doesn't know anything about that. If she finds out I was out with your fiancé...
00:11:17She's trying to get his head. She's going to have a problem.
00:11:22I just... Why didn't you tell me about the engagement?
00:11:31I'm 13 years older than you, Mel. I assumed that you might have better options.
00:11:37And you just broke up with Michael yesterday. I thought it might be too much too soon, but...
00:11:45Maybe we can give it a try?
00:11:59Does the age gap bother you?
00:12:03I'll get it.
00:12:07Michael, what are you doing here?
00:12:13Madeline, look, I know I messed up. I'm sorry. Can you give me another chance?
00:12:18No, I want you out of my life.
00:12:20Look, last night, that woman, she came onto me. I was wasted. I thought she was you.
00:12:25Michael, I'm not stupid. Don't blame me for a fool.
00:12:28I knew you were cheating on me. Stop lying. You're such a jerk.
00:12:33We have a booking with the caterer. Let's go.
00:12:38How dare you get lost?
00:12:40You kicked me?
00:12:45You stay away from Madeline, or did you not learn from last time?
00:12:48She is my fiancé. What business do you have interfering?
00:12:52Ex-fiancé. He's my fiancé now.
00:12:55Oh, come on, Madeline. Stop pretending.
00:12:58When's this whole wedding thing gonna happen, huh?
00:13:00We're getting married today.
00:13:02Are you trying to make me jealous? It's not gonna work.
00:13:05I mean it.
00:13:08How much did she pay you? I'll double it.
00:13:10You can't afford me.
00:13:13Really? You're gonna dump me for him? Are you dumb?
00:13:19I'm not dumb.
00:13:20I'm not dumb.
00:13:20I'm not dumb.
00:13:21I'm not dumb.
00:13:21I'm not dumb.
00:13:22I'm not dumb.
00:13:22I'm not dumb.
00:13:23I'm not dumb.
00:13:23I'm not dumb.
00:13:24I'm not dumb.
00:13:24I'm not dumb.
00:13:34Stop it!
00:13:35What is your problem?
00:13:37You called me a cheater!
00:13:38You must have been seeing him the whole damn time.
00:13:41Back off, Michael.
00:13:43You got five seconds to get out of here or I'm calling the cops.
00:13:46Fine.
00:13:47Plenty of other women to have fun with out there anyway.
00:13:49I'm sorry. I shouldn't have kissed you with that eye.
00:13:56Look, no worries.
00:14:01Does it matter what about? The marriage thing.
00:14:04You sure about it?
00:14:05Because there's no turning back.
00:14:09Because there's no turning back.
00:14:12What do you mean?
00:14:14Well, if I'm gonna get married, I'm only gonna do it once.
00:14:17So I want you to think it over.
00:14:19Don't rush into it.
00:14:21No, let's do it.
00:14:21Let's get married.
00:14:24It was my dad's wish anyway, and I trust his judgment.
00:14:28And I know you're gonna take care of me.
00:14:30I want this.
00:14:32The sound of heartbeats.
00:14:35This is your choice.
00:14:38No turning back.
00:14:47I have something to tell you.
00:15:05What? You married Nicholas yesterday?
00:15:09Who am I supposed to know yet?
00:15:10Oh my gosh, this is insane.
00:15:12He's like way older than you.
00:15:14So, was he good last night?
00:15:17Juliana!
00:15:19No, we didn't sleep together.
00:15:23Does he have like, erectile dysfunction or something?
00:15:29Erectile dysfunction?
00:15:30No, we got the marriage certificate and then he had to go on business trip.
00:15:34Oh, thank goodness.
00:15:36Madeline, if he's not treating you well, I will whoop his butt, no matter who he is.
00:15:41Ain't.
00:15:42Ain't.
00:15:43Gotta get you a belated wedding gift.
00:15:47What is it?
00:15:48You'll see soon enough.
00:15:50Surprise!
00:16:05Juliana is such a tease for sending me lingerie.
00:16:11Whoa.
00:16:27Careful.
00:16:37Why are you home so suddenly?
00:16:38I finished work, came straight home.
00:16:42What's with the, uh...
00:16:45It's Juliana's wedding gift.
00:16:48I'm, I'll return it in the morning.
00:16:50Oh, I mean you're already wearing it.
00:16:53Maybe you could keep it on?
00:16:58I'm sorry I missed you on the work trip, but uh, I gotta make it up to you.
00:17:08It's fine.
00:17:09Oh, really?
00:17:11Well, we gotta make the most of it.
00:17:13I'm gonna go change.
00:17:19Such a tease.
00:17:25Okay, breathe.
00:17:27We've already done it once, no big deal.
00:17:31What are you looking at?
00:17:34Uh, your designs.
00:17:35They're on the bed.
00:17:37Just rough designs.
00:17:38Nothing special.
00:17:39Let's go to sleep.
00:17:49Seriously, just fall asleep like that?
00:17:55Was he just teasing me earlier?
00:17:57I thought he wanted to...
00:17:59Never mind.
00:18:09So
00:18:36what goes up...
00:18:37What?
00:18:39Oh, hey.
00:18:40Good morning.
00:18:48Yes, this is she.
00:18:51I passed the first interview for the PAL Group's design department?
00:18:54Yes, I'll get ready for the next round.
00:18:58You were interviewing at my company?
00:19:01Yeah.
00:19:02Why come you didn't tell me?
00:19:05I wanted to do it on my own.
00:19:07Well, you're more than capable.
00:19:09I checked your designs last night.
00:19:11Very creative.
00:19:13We need designers like you.
00:19:14Really? You're not just saying that to be nice, are you?
00:19:21Have some faith in yourself.
00:19:23Come meet the design director this afternoon at three, okay?
00:19:27Okay.
00:19:37Madeline, what are you doing here?
00:19:42Personal business.
00:19:44Oh, come to win me back, have we?
00:19:46Please, leave me alone. I'm married.
00:19:51Married? You?
00:19:55Hi, I'm here for the 3 p.m. interview.
00:19:57Do you have an appointment?
00:19:58No, Mr. PAL asked me to come in.
00:20:00Oh, really?
00:20:02How do you know Mr. PAL?
00:20:04Could you please contact the design director for me?
00:20:07How hilarious.
00:20:09You know, you, a recent graduate with no project experience.
00:20:13How could you possibly have an interview with the design director?
00:20:17I can't find your appointment in this system.
00:20:20Have you tried contacting Mr. PAL directly?
00:20:27You need to get that shirt out.
00:20:28I need you to go and make sure all retailers know exactly who you are.
00:20:34Wait, no answer.
00:20:36Give me a break. Stop pretending.
00:20:39Honestly, she's just a recent graduate with no project experience.
00:20:43She couldn't possibly have an interview here or even know Mr. PAL.
00:20:47Miss, if you don't actually have an appointment, I'm going to ask you to leave.
00:20:51Please, just give me a second. I'm sure he'll pick up his seat.
00:20:54Still playing pretend, Madeline.
00:20:56Then tell us, how do you know Mr. PAL?
00:20:58Better not reveal my connection to Nicholas at the company.
00:21:01It wouldn't be good for him.
00:21:03That's none of your business.
00:21:05So you couldn't keep your sugar daddy satisfied, and now you're here to seduce Mr. PAL.
00:21:10Michael Lambert, you are absolutely disgusting.
00:21:13Well, you clearly don't have an appointment here, so you need to leave.
00:21:26Let's do this.
00:21:27All right.
00:21:27Thank you, guys.
00:21:28All right.
00:21:43Has my wife shown up for the interview yet?
00:21:45The design director said she hasn't.
00:21:49All right, I'll go check it out.
00:21:53Fine, just give me my phone back.
00:21:59Oh, you can have it.
00:22:00I'm on condition.
00:22:02What's that?
00:22:03One night with me.
00:22:06Nice try, but no.
00:22:08Don't try and reject me, Madeline.
00:22:11I know you want me.
00:22:17I told you to stay the hell away from her.
00:22:22I told you to stay the hell away from her.
00:22:25God, you again.
00:22:26I can't believe you followed her here.
00:22:28Look, this is the prestigious PAL group, and...
00:22:35Who the hell do you think you are?
00:22:36You do not call the shots here.
00:22:39You okay?
00:22:40I'm fine.
00:22:41I'm the one handling HR for this company.
00:22:44You hit me, and you're done for.
00:22:47You're the one who's bothering me.
00:22:48I'm the one with the interview.
00:22:50You're bothering me for no reason.
00:22:51An interview, you say?
00:22:53Who are you kidding, Madeline?
00:22:55You said Mr. PAL set it up.
00:22:57Well, I think you two are a bunch of scammers.
00:23:00What she said is legit.
00:23:03Then call Mr. PAL to prove it.
00:23:08Good afternoon, Mr. PAL.
00:23:14You're Mr. PAL?
00:23:19You're Mr. PAL?
00:23:22What's going on?
00:23:23Mr. PAL, she doesn't have an interview schedule.
00:23:26Mr. Michael Lambert thought she was faking it,
00:23:29and asked me to call security to usher her out of the building.
00:23:33He's just bitter because I broke up with him.
00:23:36Him. Mr. PAL.
00:23:38Mr. PAL would like to stay under the radar.
00:23:41He only shows up for big meetings.
00:23:43And you, Human Resources, huh?
00:23:45Guess you don't read the company's memos.
00:23:52You are fired.
00:23:53Get your stuff and leave now.
00:23:55Mr. PAL, look, I made a mistake, all right?
00:23:58I can explain.
00:23:59Madeline, come on, we used to have some-
00:24:01Don't you ever touch her again.
00:24:03I won't. I swear.
00:24:05She's my wife now.
00:24:06And if you keep messing with her,
00:24:08I will make sure you never get another job in HR again.
00:24:11Or any job.
00:24:17Get rid of him now.
00:24:19Mr. PAL, please.
00:24:20I made a mistake, all right?
00:24:22Give me another chance.
00:24:23Director of Design waiting for you in the interview room.
00:24:32Is mentioning our marriage at work really a good idea?
00:24:35The cat's already out of the bag.
00:24:36I'm not hiding you.
00:24:38But...
00:24:40What?
00:24:44You don't want to tell people that I'm your husband?
00:24:47No, I just...
00:24:49I don't want it to backfire on you.
00:24:51People might say the only reason I got this job was because of you.
00:24:55Listen.
00:24:57I believe in your talent.
00:24:58Can you forget what people say?
00:25:00Your opinion really matters to me.
00:25:03Ray...
00:25:20Who are you supposed to be?
00:25:22Hi.
00:25:23I'm here for the interview.
00:25:25Alone?
00:25:26I thought I heard Mr. Powell.
00:25:27No, no. Just me.
00:25:30All right, then.
00:25:31Come on in.
00:25:38So she's Mr. Powell's wife.
00:25:41She seems so young.
00:25:43Here are my designs.
00:25:45I hope you like them.
00:25:51I really dig your designs.
00:25:54Let's get the ball rolling.
00:25:55Thank you, Mr. Fowler.
00:25:56That means a lot.
00:25:59Have a good day.
00:26:10Hello.
00:26:11I've got an interview, but I was running late.
00:26:13I'm Kaylee.
00:26:15Michael promised me he'd pull some strings to land me a sweet gig.
00:26:19Another one?
00:26:20Did I mix them up?
00:26:22Is she the real Mrs. Powell?
00:26:27Wow.
00:26:28She looks way more mature.
00:26:30Definitely Mr. Powell's wife.
00:26:34Sir.
00:26:36I get it.
00:26:37I'm attractive, but I'm taken.
00:26:39And trust me, you do not want to cross him.
00:26:43So she's Mr. Powell's wife.
00:26:46Sorry about that.
00:26:48I'm Terry Fowler, the design director.
00:26:50Please take a seat.
00:26:53This won't take long.
00:26:54Okay.
00:26:55Looks like Michael wasn't bluffing.
00:26:57He's a real big shot here.
00:26:59Even the director is being so nice to me.
00:27:12What's going on?
00:27:14I just got hired by your company.
00:27:17Oh.
00:27:40Oh, there's a little something here.
00:27:45What was I thinking?
00:27:46Did I really believe he was going to kiss me?
00:27:50I, uh, should probably go change.
00:27:54Wait.
00:27:55Let's get you some new outfits.
00:27:57Now?
00:27:58Are we gonna hit the mall?
00:28:04Hey.
00:28:05Bring over the latest women's styles.
00:28:17Why all this?
00:28:19Because you're starting a new job.
00:28:21You need a killer style to match.
00:28:24It's, it's not necessary.
00:28:26Come on.
00:28:29Try these on.
00:28:31I mean this one.
00:28:33Just so you know.
00:28:46So
00:29:16Mr. Powell, I found these great work outfits for your wife.
00:29:24I mean, whoa.
00:29:26Uh, sorry.
00:29:27Um, uh, uh, carry on.
00:29:31I'm so sorry.
00:29:32I didn't mean to.
00:29:33Relax.
00:29:37I'll drive you to the office tomorrow.
00:29:42Nicholas is so sweet.
00:29:44I'm finding it hard not to fall for him.
00:29:47Here, let me out here.
00:29:53Why?
00:29:53We're almost there.
00:29:57Wait a minute.
00:29:58Is that Mr. Powell's car?
00:29:59I just, I don't want anyone to see us together.
00:30:02I'm the office new girl and I want to keep a low profile.
00:30:05Catch you tonight?
00:30:13No way.
00:30:15Who's dropping Mrs. Powell off at work?
00:30:21I got on the phone with our manufacturer this morning and I said,
00:30:24we have to have our samples at the start of the month.
00:30:26We can't have them at the end of the month.
00:30:27No.
00:30:28Hi, Mr. Fowler.
00:30:29Good morning.
00:30:33You're rocking that dress too.
00:30:34What's wrong with it?
00:30:37Is she Mr. Powell's wife?
00:30:41Watch it.
00:30:45You?
00:30:48What are you doing here?
00:30:50You took the words right out of my mouth.
00:30:53I'm the designer that Mr. Fowler brought in personally.
00:30:55And you?
00:30:56How did you even get into the pal group?
00:30:58I notched that interview out of the park and I...
00:31:00Oh, please.
00:31:02Tricks?
00:31:03Maybe.
00:31:04And you're copying my style.
00:31:07This is a designer piece.
00:31:09Super limited.
00:31:11My partner scored it for me at a high-end boutique.
00:31:13There is no way you could afford it.
00:31:17Is Michael that generous?
00:31:21I just hope she doesn't realize my clothes aren't the real ones.
00:31:30So I wasn't mistaken.
00:31:32Kaylee is Mr. Powell's wife.
00:31:36Kaylee Pittman.
00:31:37Meet Madeline Warren, our new recruit.
00:31:40Do you two know each other?
00:31:41No.
00:31:42Not at all.
00:31:43Mr. Fowler, maybe you should rethink your standards a little.
00:31:48How can a fashion designer wear such obvious knockoffs?
00:31:51What knockoffs?
00:31:52Madeline, I am aware that you just graduated and perhaps a bit strapped for cash.
00:31:58I will overlook at this time but won't let it slide again.
00:32:01But I...
00:32:04Stella, can you show our new teammates where to get settled?
00:32:09I'm Stella Thomas, one of the senior designers.
00:32:12Don't hesitate to ask me anything.
00:32:14Uh, hi.
00:32:16Can you show me to my desk?
00:32:19It's over there.
00:32:23Let me show you to your desk.
00:32:25After you.
00:32:26Oh, you're incredibly gracious, Mrs. Powell.
00:32:33Wait, what?
00:32:35I heard Mr. Powell tied the knot and brought his wife to the design team.
00:32:38That's you, right?
00:32:39Yep, Mr. Powell said to take really good care of you.
00:32:42You're married to Mr. Powell and still so driven?
00:32:44That's...
00:32:45So they think I'm Nicholas Powell's wife.
00:32:49Perfect.
00:32:49With Michael gone, I'll need someone to be my support.
00:32:53Look, I'd rather just keep things low-key around here.
00:32:56So call me Kaylee, not Mrs. Powell.
00:33:00Of course.
00:33:01Sure thing.
00:33:03There's a fantastic restaurant downstairs.
00:33:05Perfect.
00:33:05Let's do lunch together.
00:33:06Let's do it.
00:33:07Let's go.
00:33:12I'm starving.
00:33:33Then you should grab a bite.
00:33:35What are you doing here?
00:33:37Brought you some lunch.
00:33:39Why is it such a mess?
00:33:41Are you not getting any support from your team?
00:33:43No, it's fine.
00:33:44The corner's quiet.
00:33:45I like it.
00:33:46Seriously?
00:33:48Yes.
00:33:51Wait, you should get out.
00:33:52Someone might see you.
00:33:56Mr. Powell, what are you doing here?
00:34:02Mr. Powell, what are you doing here?
00:34:06I was just bringing my wife some lunch.
00:34:09Wow, Mr. Powell really loves his wife.
00:34:14Oh, the bonus.
00:34:15I'll get them next time.
00:34:22That was way too close.
00:34:29You need to finish these off before the end of the day.
00:34:33Kaylee, this is your work.
00:34:36Do it yourself.
00:34:38Madeline, you're new.
00:34:41You need to show that you can handle more around here.
00:34:44If I do all of her work, what's left for her to do?
00:34:48I have an appointment.
00:34:51I need to leave early.
00:34:53Yeah, right.
00:34:54Of course, we can't let you miss that.
00:34:58Seriously, Kaylee?
00:34:59Dumping all this work on me so you can go on a date with Michael?
00:35:04Michael?
00:35:05The HR guy that just got fired?
00:35:07What's going on between you two?
00:35:11What's going on between you two?
00:35:13Michael got fired and lied to me about quitting.
00:35:18I don't know him, but Madeline does.
00:35:21That used to be a thing.
00:35:23We broke up ages ago.
00:35:25My husband is Nick.
00:35:27Keep calm, girl.
00:35:28Don't expose your relationship with Nicholas because of them.
00:35:31Nick who?
00:35:33Don't tell me Nicholas is your husband.
00:35:36Madeline, you think we don't know?
00:35:38Mr. Powell's wife is right here.
00:35:40Wait, they already know?
00:35:42Enough.
00:35:44Don't waste your breath on her.
00:35:48I want these done by tomorrow morning.
00:35:54Fine, let them challenge me.
00:35:57I'll make it an opportunity to grow.
00:36:05Poor Madeline.
00:36:12I'll return Michael to you.
00:36:14No need to thank me.
00:36:20Hey, I'm sorry.
00:36:21I've got a few things to wrap up here.
00:36:23You're going without me.
00:36:25What's going on?
00:36:28It's nothing.
00:36:28It's just settling into a new job.
00:36:32It's a lot to take in at first.
00:36:34All right.
00:36:36I'll wait for you at home.
00:36:59Why isn't she home yet?
00:37:02Why doesn't she answer her calls?
00:37:06I'm home.
00:37:17Michael, what are you doing here?
00:37:21Madeline, I can't get you out of my mind.
00:37:24Weren't you fired?
00:37:24How did you get in here?
00:37:26Oh, drop the tough act.
00:37:28Kaylee said you still like me.
00:37:30What nonsense are you talking about?
00:37:32Thinking about it.
00:37:32You don't step back.
00:37:34I'm calling security.
00:37:35Oh, it's late.
00:37:37It's just us.
00:37:41You remember Nicholas's wife, right?
00:37:43He's the CEO.
00:37:45Oh, I know him.
00:37:47Madeline, let's be real.
00:37:49Nicholas may be rich, but he's old.
00:37:52He can't give you what you really want.
00:37:54I could be your little secret if you let me.
00:37:57Just one night, and I promise you'll never go back.
00:38:06What is Michael doing here?
00:38:11Madeline can't get over it, but bringing him to the office.
00:38:19How dare you?
00:38:20I will never get back with you.
00:38:22Seriously, how many women have you used besides Kaylee?
00:38:26You're repulsive.
00:38:27You crazy bitch.
00:38:29You kicked me again.
00:38:30Honestly, walking in on you was the best decision I ever made.
00:38:34Madeline, you can't run away.
00:38:36No!
00:38:38Nick.
00:38:41You can't walk away from me.
00:38:43Wake up!
00:38:44Nick, why are you here?
00:38:47Usually, you'd be home by now, so I came looking for you.
00:38:50I warned you, Michael.
00:38:51Did you have a death wish?
00:38:53No, it's not like that.
00:38:56She called me.
00:38:57She said she missed me and wanted me to be her lover.
00:39:01That's absurd.
00:39:03Nick has morals, financially stable, and handsome.
00:39:07Madeline, I'm younger.
00:39:09I've got more stamina, and at least I can get it up.
00:39:14You have no idea what you're talking about.
00:39:17Enough.
00:39:17Save it for the cops.
00:39:19No.
00:39:20No.
00:39:21No!
00:39:22Stop right there!
00:39:23Let him go.
00:39:24He won't get far.
00:39:25I feel like I'm always causing you trouble.
00:39:36Michael's the problem, not you.
00:39:39Thank you for coming.
00:39:43Thank you for coming.
00:39:45I'm really glad you're here.
00:39:47Don't count on me.
00:39:48I'm younger.
00:39:51I've got more stamina, and at least I can get it up.
00:39:59You look wiped out.
00:40:01Let's get you home.
00:40:02Okay.
00:40:10You're so young, full of dreams.
00:40:16Am I really the man for you?
00:40:17Or am I just holding you back?
00:40:32You'll need to polish these up, too.
00:40:34Seriously, Kaylee?
00:40:36I spent all night on these designs.
00:40:39That's it?
00:40:41Nothing else happened?
00:40:42What are you talking about?
00:40:44Come on.
00:40:46Don't play coy.
00:40:47I know Michael came by.
00:40:48You two back on?
00:40:50Never.
00:40:51What?
00:40:53How did you even know he was here?
00:40:56Did you call him?
00:41:01Did you call him?
00:41:05Kaylee, are you out of your mind?
00:41:07You knew I was working late, and yet you still called Michael to come over in the middle of the night.
00:41:12Are you insane?
00:41:13What were you trying to do?
00:41:15I was just trying to help you two patch things up.
00:41:19How can you be so ungrateful?
00:41:21I'm telling Mr. Fowler this.
00:41:24You think Mr. Fowler is going to take your side over mine?
00:41:29Mr. Fowler wants you to finish these like yesterday already.
00:41:46Where is she?
00:42:01Are the newcomers really that busy?
00:42:03Or is she dodging me?
00:42:11Mr. Powell, is everything okay between you and your wife?
00:42:16She seems to be leaving early and coming back home late a lot.
00:42:21No, we're not fighting.
00:42:22It's complicated.
00:42:25What's going on?
00:42:28I just don't think we're a good match, you know?
00:42:32I try to keep my distance since the wedding, and she's so young.
00:42:37What if she regrets marrying me one day?
00:42:40Mr. Powell, you're overthinking all of this.
00:42:44You and your wife just need to talk it out.
00:42:49Seriously?
00:42:53Well, tomorrow I could go to the design department.
00:42:56Perfect chance to speak with her.
00:43:10Here's the latest batch.
00:43:12Finish them quickly.
00:43:14I...
00:43:15Hey guys, Mr. Powell is swinging by soon for an inspection.
00:43:21Mr. Powell never comes and checks at our department.
00:43:23He is definitely here for you.
00:43:25You think so?
00:43:27I've got to dodge this, or my secret's toast.
00:43:31I'll be right back.
00:43:33I've just got a thing to handle.
00:43:34What's more important than seeing Mr. Powell?
00:43:36You have to hype me up to him later.
00:43:39Hi, Mr. Powell.
00:43:40Hi, Mr. Powell.
00:43:42Hi, Mr. Powell.
00:43:47So this is Nicholas Powell.
00:43:49Wow, he's a real stud.
00:43:52Mr. Powell, your wife is right here.
00:43:57Oh my god, she fainted!
00:44:02Madeline!
00:44:06Madeline!
00:44:08Madeline?
00:44:10Nick...
00:44:12Are you okay?
00:44:14My head's spinning like a top.
00:44:16Yeah, I got it.
00:44:25Why did Mr. Powell ignore you and carry Madeline off?
00:44:31Well, she fainted.
00:44:33We've got to make sure she's okay.
00:44:36If something goes wrong here at the Powell Group,
00:44:38we could all get the blame for it.
00:44:40That's very true.
00:44:41Mr. Powell's got a good head on his shoulders.
00:44:43Or maybe Madeline's playing a game and trying to get close to Mr. Powell.
00:44:47Stop gossiping.
00:44:48Let's not assume or jump to conclusions.
00:44:51Come on, she's just a newbie.
00:44:53She can't be that worn out.
00:44:57Honestly, my marriage is a wreck right now.
00:45:03Madeline is the other woman.
00:45:09What?
00:45:10Are you saying Madeline's been seducing Mr. Powell this entire time?
00:45:15No wonder Madeline wore the same outfit as Kaylee that day.
00:45:19She totally planned that.
00:45:21Madeline gets back, she's out.
00:45:23She's a shameless homewrecker.
00:45:24I can't stand being in the same department with someone like her.
00:45:28You all shouldn't get involved.
00:45:31I mean, he may have brought her into the company.
00:45:34If this blows up,
00:45:37he could divorce me on the spot.
00:45:40You might all get dragged into this too.
00:45:43So, it's best to act like you don't know anything.
00:45:46Karma is bound to catch up with someone like Madeline the homewrecker.
00:45:50When Mr. Powell gets to his senses, he'll leave her.
00:45:53Thanks for having my back.
00:46:06She's just overworked and exhausted.
00:46:08A bit of rest and she'll be fine, okay?
00:46:10All right, thank you.
00:46:14Don't go.
00:46:23I'm not going anywhere.
00:46:25I'll be right here next to you.
00:46:28You scare me when you fainted.
00:46:31You've been working long hours at the offices.
00:46:34Is there someone in the design department that's bothering you?
00:46:38No.
00:46:42You need to be honest with me.
00:46:43You can't fool me.
00:46:45A newbie in the design department doesn't work these hours.
00:46:48It's not normal for you to be working this hard.
00:46:51Okay.
00:46:53Someone is making things a bit overwhelming for me.
00:46:57I want to sort it out myself.
00:47:00But you've just passed out.
00:47:01If you keep this up, it's...
00:47:02I won't. I swear.
00:47:05I'm not going to let you down.
00:47:06I won't. I swear.
00:47:09If you say so.
00:47:11But if you can't handle it, you need to tell me.
00:47:14I will. I promise.
00:47:17Please open up to me.
00:47:23All right, you take the bedroom tonight.
00:47:25I'll take the rest of the guest house.
00:47:27We're married.
00:47:29We shared the bed before.
00:47:30What's the problem?
00:47:33You need your rest.
00:47:34You need to focus on yourself.
00:47:36Okay.
00:47:50Am I not what he wants anymore?
00:47:53Does he have his second thoughts about marrying me?
00:48:00Wait, what?
00:48:01Nicholas hasn't touched you since the wedding.
00:48:04Yeah, he's...
00:48:06He's still nice to me.
00:48:07Something's different now.
00:48:08I don't know. He...
00:48:10I... It feels like he might regret marrying me.
00:48:12Like...
00:48:14He's not into me anymore.
00:48:15Don't sweat it.
00:48:16You can turn this around.
00:48:18But first, you gotta tell me.
00:48:20Do you actually like Nicholas?
00:48:23Yeah.
00:48:25He's... He's so nice and supportive.
00:48:27And he's always there for me.
00:48:30I can't picture my life without him.
00:48:33I'm totally falling for him.
00:48:36If you're into him, it's easy.
00:48:37I'll give you tips to make Nicholas head over heels for you.
00:48:41Seriously?
00:48:42How?
00:49:01I brought you some milk.
00:49:04Thanks.
00:49:07Did it burn you?
00:49:11Ouch.
00:49:13It really hurts.
00:49:14Okay, I'll go get some ointment.
00:49:18No need for that.
00:49:19I'll be fine.
00:49:21I promise.
00:49:22I'll still go get some ointment.
00:49:24I don't want me to scar.
00:49:36Are you sure this is what you want?
00:49:39Don't start with that.
00:49:54Morning.
00:49:55Still tired?
00:49:58Crap.
00:49:59I'm gonna be late.
00:50:06I gotta go.
00:50:24Give me an update on the design department.
00:50:26I want to know who's messing with my wife.
00:50:36What?
00:50:51Listen up, everyone.
00:50:52I got news.
00:50:54Next quarter's design exhibition has been bumped up.
00:50:57We need theme collections.
00:50:59And there's a $10,000 bonus to the winner.
00:51:03No way!
00:51:06Seriously?
00:51:09Shouldn't we have some standards?
00:51:11We shouldn't have to compete with some people.
00:51:19Who are you referring to?
00:51:21If you've got a problem, say it straight to my face.
00:51:24Fine.
00:51:26A mistress like you doesn't belong in the same exhibition as us.
00:51:31Mistress?
00:51:33Me?
00:51:34What?
00:51:35You're not?
00:51:36You better explain yourself.
00:51:38Why are you calling me that?
00:51:39Madeline, enough!
00:51:41You're green.
00:51:42Fresh out of school.
00:51:44It's better if you sit this one out, just in case your designs get laughed at.
00:51:49Laughed at?
00:51:50The only one getting laughed at is you.
00:51:52My designs are the first to be picked.
00:51:55And you, Kaylee?
00:51:57You haven't even finished a single piece, have you?
00:52:00You!
00:52:01I'm going to that exhibition.
00:52:03And don't even think about sabotaging me.
00:52:06Or my work.
00:52:14You've got more patience than I do.
00:52:16If that were me, I would have slapped her right there and then.
00:52:19Don't worry.
00:52:20She'll regret it soon enough.
00:52:36What's wrong?
00:52:50Can't sleep?
00:52:51The design exhibition is over.
00:52:53I'm freaking out a little.
00:52:55Relax.
00:52:58You got this.
00:53:06Each designer will present their concept.
00:53:27The judges, including myself, will give scores and feedback.
00:53:31Relax.
00:53:32You've got this.
00:53:34Let's bring up our first designer.
00:53:36Kaylee Pittman.
00:53:52Good afternoon, judges.
00:53:54My design is inspired by the simplicity of daisies.
00:54:01Wait.
00:54:02Those are my designs.
00:54:06Daisies stand for beauty and innocence.
00:54:10I hope that whoever wears this feels the beauty of life.
00:54:18Miss Pittman, your designs are so creative.
00:54:23They're not unique, but they capture the idea of a perfect life.
00:54:28I'm leaning towards a perfect score.
00:54:33Ten.
00:54:36Could you tell us what your inspiration was?
00:54:39Of course.
00:54:40The idea came from my late grandmother.
00:54:43Daisies were her favorite.
00:54:45And her last wish was to wear something designed by me.
00:54:52She's lying.
00:54:53She's lying.
00:54:54These aren't her designs.
00:54:57These are mine.
00:54:57Kaylee stole them.
00:54:59Madeline, your behavior is unacceptable.
00:55:01You're cut from the exhibition.
00:55:03What?
00:55:04Why am I disqualified?
00:55:05Your designs are exactly like Kaylee's.
00:55:08But she straight up copied me.
00:55:09That's enough.
00:55:11Kaylee managed to submit her work before yours.
00:55:13How on earth could she have copied your work?
00:55:21Kaylee managed to submit her work before yours.
00:55:23How on earth could she have copied your work?
00:55:27Can you believe her?
00:55:29She has the nerve to steal Kaylee's design and then slander her like that.
00:55:33Kaylee needs my help to finish her sketch.
00:55:36How on earth could I plagiarize her?
00:55:38She's lying through her teeth.
00:55:39All these sketches are mine.
00:55:41I have no clue when Kaylee stole them.
00:55:43But she's the real thief here.
00:55:45Madeline, this is no time for drama.
00:55:49Just leave.
00:55:50No, I'm not going anywhere.
00:55:52Everything I've said is the truth.
00:55:54The one who needs to go isn't me.
00:55:56Enough.
00:55:57Madeline, how could a newbie like you whip up something this good?
00:56:00The daisy?
00:56:01That's not even a design concept.
00:56:03That's just my personal signature.
00:56:05It's on all of my sketches.
00:56:08And I can prove it.
00:56:13Alright, let's see what you got.
00:56:15Absolutely.
00:56:27Oh.
00:56:30Kaylee, have you lost your mind?
00:56:31Your designs deserve none of our time.
00:56:33You must have stolen my ideas all along.
00:56:36Then why trash my sketches?
00:56:38Scared everyone will see the truth?
00:56:39I...
00:56:41I just don't want to waste time listening to your lies.
00:56:44Mr. Fowler, Madeline has been after me for way too long.
00:56:47She needs to go.
00:56:50You're right, she's a disgrace to this company.
00:56:52Madeline, you're fired.
00:56:53Not until we sort this out.
00:56:55I want to see the security footage.
00:56:57Don't even waste your time on her.
00:56:59She's just stirring up drama like always.
00:57:01Mr. Fowler, call security.
00:57:04No need for security.
00:57:06I'll handle this.
00:57:09Don't you dare.
00:57:15Don't you dare.
00:57:17Mr. Powell, what are you doing here?
00:57:20Oh no.
00:57:22This is a total nightmare.
00:57:24Why is Nicholas here?
00:57:26Terry, how dare you treat Madeline like that?
00:57:28Are you trying to get yourself fired?
00:57:30Mr. Powell, Madeline's got to go.
00:57:31She has no moral compass.
00:57:33Not only did she plagiarize, but also she...
00:57:36Also what?
00:57:38Just plagiarizing is enough to let her go.
00:57:41Exactly, Mr. Powell.
00:57:42It's company policy.
00:57:44No exceptions for Madeline.
00:57:45And it's not fair to the rest of us.
00:57:48Especially Kaylee.
00:57:49Kaylee's the one who plagiarized, not me.
00:57:53Have you gotten proof?
00:57:54I had proof.
00:57:55Kaylee ripped it up.
00:57:57Let's get the surveillance from the design department.
00:58:00Right away, Mr. Powell.
00:58:03Mr. Powell, the video surveillance has suspiciously been wiped off.
00:58:11Lucky for me, I took care of those cameras beforehand.
00:58:15It would have been a real mess otherwise.
00:58:19Look, I get it, okay?
00:58:22You like Madeline.
00:58:24But you can't defend her without evidence.
00:58:27Mr. Powell, Kaylee has brilliant skills.
00:58:30There's no denying that.
00:58:31What's that got to do with me?
00:58:33Mr. Powell, you have been quite harsh on her.
00:58:35This is my fight.
00:58:37Why are you dragging him in?
00:58:38Because you need to own up.
00:58:40Just admit that you plagiarized.
00:58:43Well, maybe we should do some live designing together.
00:58:46A quick comparison with the design will make things clear.
00:58:50That's way too complicated.
00:58:53Go grab some paper and pens, will you?
00:59:00All right, let's go with a theme of daisies.
00:59:03Create a design draft on the spot.
00:59:23Kaylee, what in the world is that?
00:59:38Well, that's obvious.
00:59:39Kaylee can't even sketch a decent design.
00:59:42She's the real plagiarist here.
00:59:46I messed up!
00:59:47Mr. Powell, Kaylee messed up by copying,
00:59:50but maybe she only did it because she was upset
00:59:54about your secret affair with Madeline.
00:59:56Terry, that is ridiculous.
00:59:58You told me to look after your wife.
00:59:59What happened to that?
01:00:01How dare you bring that up?
01:00:03Did you even take care of her?
01:00:05Well, I'm right here supporting her.
01:00:10Wait, you think Nicholas's wife is Kaylee?
01:00:20Yeah, isn't she?
01:00:22I am Nicholas's...
01:00:24Madeline, you're too young to be in this mess.
01:00:27Why would you choose to wreck their marriage?
01:00:30Excuse me?
01:00:32Who said that Madeline is my mistress?
01:00:36I haven't even met who this woman is.
01:00:39What the hell?
01:00:40You had us all believe you were Mr. Powell's wife.
01:00:44You were the one that mistook me for her.
01:00:46It's not my fault you're clueless.
01:00:49And you let us all believe that.
01:00:51You knew we were wrong and you didn't say anything.
01:00:53How could you?
01:00:54Please, you were piling on Madeline too.
01:00:57Don't act all high and mighty with me.
01:00:59Enough!
01:01:01I'm done with both of you.
01:01:03You're both fired.
01:01:03Pack your things and get out.
01:01:06No!
01:01:08Mr. Powell, I...
01:01:10And I nearly threw Madeline underneath the bus.
01:01:13Forgive me?
01:01:15I'm really sorry.
01:01:16Apologize to my wife.
01:01:18Not me.
01:01:22Mrs. Powell, I'm truly sorry.
01:01:24Can you please forgive me?
01:01:27Yeah, we're really sorry, Mrs. Powell.
01:01:28We messed up big time.
01:01:29Please, Mrs. Powell, we screwed up.
01:01:31It won't happen again.
01:01:40What's wrong?
01:01:41You don't look so good.
01:01:43I just got a bit worked up.
01:01:44Just tired.
01:01:45Want to take a go?
01:01:46No.
01:01:48I'll be fine.
01:01:48Just give me a minute.
01:01:50We have to go.
01:01:58Well, Mrs. Powell, looks like you're expecting.
01:02:04Wow, really?
01:02:05A little over a month now.
01:02:07It's time to take it easy, rest up and watch what you're eating, okay?
01:02:11Okay, I can do that.
01:02:13Mr. Powell, please take her in for another...
01:02:15for a proper checkup soon, okay?
01:02:16Of course.
01:02:17Thank you, doctor.
01:02:22Nick, we're having a baby.
01:02:29You don't seem happy.
01:02:33You don't seem happy.
01:02:36No, I'm happy.
01:02:40Okay, great.
01:02:41Then let's go to the hospital later and we'll get everything checked out.
01:02:44Yeah, sure.
01:02:45I'll go get that arranged.
01:02:48Okay.
01:03:00Hey, Juliana, I'm gonna be a mom.
01:03:03You're pregnant?
01:03:04Congrats!
01:03:06Thanks.
01:03:07And of course, you're gonna be my baby's cod mom.
01:03:10Obviously.
01:03:11Speaking of which, how's Nicholas handling this?
01:03:14I mean, the future Powell, Aaron all.
01:03:16Uh, I don't know.
01:03:18He doesn't seem happy.
01:03:20What?
01:03:21No, he's just processing it.
01:03:23It's a lot.
01:03:24Don't stress.
01:03:26Thanks.
01:03:27I'll talk to you later.
01:03:29Bye.
01:03:30Would terminating it hurt?
01:03:32Yeah, almost two months ago.
01:03:36He wants to get rid of that baby?
01:03:39Yeah, almost two months ago.
01:03:47Yeah, she passed out a few days ago, but...
01:03:50Is it too dangerous for her to have the child now?
01:03:53I understand your concern, but with our care, she'll be fine.
01:03:56Don't stress.
01:04:00That's good to hear.
01:04:14This is a nightmare!
01:04:16He doesn't want the baby.
01:04:18He never wanted me!
01:04:21Madeline?
01:04:27If it wasn't for you, I wouldn't be in this mess.
01:04:31You owe me.
01:04:32Kaylee, what the hell is this?
01:04:35Where are you?
01:04:37You're really that desperate?
01:04:38Desperate?
01:04:39This is all your fault!
01:04:41You've ruined me!
01:04:43I lost my job at Powell.
01:04:44I've been blacklisted everywhere, and I am drowning in debt because of you!
01:04:49Kaylee, listen.
01:04:50We can talk this out.
01:04:52I can help you help me.
01:04:54You think you're better than me.
01:04:55I took your boyfriend, and you still ended up with everything.
01:04:59Mr. Powell.
01:05:00Perfect, rich life.
01:05:03While I have nothing.
01:05:05And never.
01:05:07If I'm going down, I'm taking you with me.
01:05:11Stop!
01:05:15Madeline.
01:05:17Are you hurt?
01:05:18Talk to me.
01:05:26She's just in shock.
01:05:28She'll wake up soon.
01:05:29And the baby will be perfectly fine.
01:05:32Thank you, Doctor.
01:05:45And finally, you're awake.
01:05:55Madeline, what were you thinking?
01:05:57Why did you go out alone?
01:06:01Do you have any idea of how risky that is?
01:06:03If not for me, but for the baby.
01:06:06Stop pretending you care.
01:06:07You don't actually want this child.
01:06:10You want me to get rid of it.
01:06:12That is not true.
01:06:13I'm over the moon about the baby.
01:06:16Liar!
01:06:16I heard you on the phone.
01:06:18I was worried.
01:06:20I just wanted to make sure that everything was okay after what happened.
01:06:24What did the doctor say?
01:06:25She said that there's nothing serious.
01:06:29Take care of yourself, and everything will be okay.
01:06:32That's a relief.
01:06:34I'm sorry to have you so worried.
01:06:37Madeline, why can't you trust me?
01:06:38So we got married because it's my dad's wishes.
01:06:41You don't actually like me, do you?
01:06:44I love you deeply, Madeline.
01:06:47Me?
01:06:49You love me?
01:06:51Deeply.
01:06:53From the moment I first laid eyes on you.
01:06:55I was drawn to you, and you just didn't know it.
01:06:59How could I?
01:07:00You never said anything.
01:07:03I was scared.
01:07:05I was afraid.
01:07:06I was scared.
01:07:11You have so much of a life to explore, and before getting stuck with someone like me,
01:07:16you're still young.
01:07:20I was worried that you'd think I was childish or mature.
01:07:25You're incredible.
01:07:27Honestly.
01:07:29I've loved you for a long time.
01:07:31Are you serious?
01:07:33I am.
01:07:35Nicholas, I love you.
01:07:38I love you more, Madeline.
01:07:43Feel it.
01:07:45In every bit of my heart.
