00:00:00Zoe Campbell, will you marry me?
00:00:03Yes, it's St. Kross.
00:00:05I'll marry you.
00:00:08No one gets close to my sons without wanting something.
00:00:12What do you want?
00:00:16Zoe, he loves me.
00:00:18I know he does.
00:00:28I've changed my face.
00:00:30I've come so far.
00:00:33I'll find out the truth about you, Audrey.
00:00:36And I'll make him pay.
00:00:44There's no turning back.
00:00:46I promise.
00:00:47Hi, I'm Zoe Campbell.
00:01:06I'm here for my interview.
00:01:07Take a seat.
00:01:12We'll call you when he's ready.
00:01:14Oh, okay.
00:01:15I'll have an interview later, Mother.
00:01:24I swear.
00:01:26Ashton, you throw away assistants as if they have expiration dates printed on them.
00:01:30Don't worry.
00:01:31That won't take long.
00:01:32This is the third time this month.
00:01:35And every time, it means thousands of dollars paid to shut up these blood-sucking flies on the wall.
00:01:42Come on.
00:01:43Boys just want to have fun.
00:01:45Not when you're taking over a publicly traded company in two weeks.
00:01:51You leave me no choice.
00:01:55You're not crossing me off the trust fund.
00:01:57I won't.
00:02:00If you get married.
00:02:02This company is your father's life's work.
00:02:05I'm not letting a weak link ruin it.
00:02:07I'm so sorry for interrupting.
00:02:14Um, thank you.
00:02:16Who did her hair?
00:02:17Do you think she even combed it?
00:02:18I was mourning.
00:02:19No.
00:02:19She did not comb it.
00:02:20It's called a rat's nest.
00:02:22Oh, yes.
00:02:26This is bullshit.
00:02:27It can help redeem your image.
00:02:30It'll show the public that you've stopped screwing around.
00:02:33Started acting like a crono.
00:02:34I never wanted to be CEO.
00:02:36You know very well why it cannot be the same.
00:02:41What do I have to remind you?
00:02:45No.
00:02:53You're the heir to the Cross family, Ashton.
00:02:55This is the hand you've been dealt with.
00:02:59Play it well.
00:02:59This company is your father's life's work.
00:03:04I'm so sorry for interrupting, but Jeff said he needed your signature in three minutes, or we wouldn't be able to close the contract with Gabe from K&L, and he'd be really, really unhappy.
00:03:15Who are you?
00:03:17Pam, from Marketing Strategies.
00:03:21Mrs. Cross, it's a pleasure to meet you.
00:03:23Thank you, Pam.
00:03:24Well, obviously, Pam and I have a lot of work to do.
00:03:29We'll talk about this another time.
00:03:30You're not off the hook, Ashton.
00:03:34I've gone through great lengths to set you up with some very worthy candidates.
00:03:38Remember, you have two weeks, and I want to see a ring.
00:03:45We're so sorry, Mr. Cross.
00:03:47We didn't mean to let this woman disturb you.
00:03:49Yeah, we're really sorry.
00:03:51We'll escort her out right away.
00:03:52Did I say I wanted her out?
00:03:53She's fine.
00:03:56She can stay.
00:03:57Go back to work.
00:04:00Now, go back to work.
00:04:01Okay.
00:04:09Zoe Campbell.
00:04:11Why did you just burst in here like that?
00:04:13I didn't mean to eavesdrop, but it sounded like you could use an escape from that conversation.
00:04:18And you came up with that whole story on the spot, just like that.
00:04:21Act fast under pressure.
00:04:23You're hired.
00:04:30Okay.
00:04:31Your first day starts right now.
00:04:34Didn't expect it to be so easy, but yes, I guess it all starts right now.
00:04:43I never said I was Sally.
00:04:46Xander, wouldn't it make more sense if you didn't live in a penthouse?
00:04:50You'd also be closer to your PT, which Mother says is progressing.
00:04:56I wouldn't call taking five steps with a walk or progressing.
00:05:00I should probably leave.
00:05:02Hey, I see my little brother has yet another young lady in his life.
00:05:07This is my new assistant.
00:05:09Her name is Zoe.
00:05:10I shall enjoy getting to know your acquaintance, Zoe.
00:05:14At least these next few months.
00:05:16Xander.
00:05:16I can fend for myself.
00:05:20What happened to you?
00:05:21Car accident.
00:05:22Our father died.
00:05:24Cross Kingdom shattered overnight.
00:05:27What the press forgot to mention.
00:05:29You were there in the accident.
00:05:33Can we discuss the apartment?
00:05:35This meeting has completely been derailed.
00:05:39Zoe, perhaps it's the best if Xander and I continue alone.
00:05:48Wait, Zoe.
00:05:49That's what I'm telling you now.
00:05:52If he doesn't bend you over one way,
00:05:55he'll break you another.
00:05:58Really, Xander?
00:05:59Thank you for your concern.
00:06:00But the last thing you need to worry about is me falling for your brother.
00:06:05I assure you,
00:06:07you should be more afraid of me.
00:06:10Interesting.
00:06:11Xander, please.
00:06:12I'm only trying to help you.
00:06:18I don't know about you, but
00:06:19I could use a drink.
00:06:26I guess you could say
00:06:30that my relationship with my brother
00:06:32is improving.
00:06:33I mean, at least you're willing to work on it.
00:06:35I know my brother,
00:06:36and I know he's charming.
00:06:38Most of those women
00:06:39were in your position.
00:06:41Maybe Xander secretly wants to be close to you.
00:06:44Yeah.
00:06:45We don't have to talk about my brother.
00:06:47Or business.
00:06:49What should we talk about?
00:06:51We don't have to talk about my brother.
00:06:53Or business.
00:06:55What should we talk about?
00:06:56You tricked my mother
00:06:58and stood your own
00:07:00against Xander
00:07:01on the same day.
00:07:02That makes me a little
00:07:03curious.
00:07:06You know,
00:07:07they say curiosity
00:07:08is a dangerous thing.
00:07:10I'm not just another assistant
00:07:12you're going to go home with.
00:07:14I've had a lovely evening, though.
00:07:17And I'll see you tomorrow.
00:07:18I'll see you tomorrow.
00:07:48Curiosity isn't enough.
00:08:04I need his trust.
00:08:07I've changed my face.
00:08:09I've come so far.
00:08:11There's no turning back.
00:08:13I'll find out the truth about you, Audrey.
00:08:15And I'll make him pay.
00:08:18I promise.
00:08:22I can't believe she left
00:08:24with Ashton last night.
00:08:26You know what they say.
00:08:26You sleep with the right person.
00:08:28You get the right job.
00:08:30Oh my God!
00:08:31You spilled coffee everywhere!
00:08:32That was so embarrassing.
00:08:47Excuse me, ladies.
00:08:48I'm afraid I need to confiscate
00:08:49your key cards
00:08:50and escort you out.
00:08:52Wait, what?
00:08:53Why?
00:08:53It was a direct order
00:08:54from Mr. Cross.
00:08:55He fired us?
00:08:57I mean, he can't do that.
00:08:58I believe he can.
00:09:01Now, are you packing yourself
00:09:02or do you need a hand?
00:09:07You messed up the wrong person.
00:09:15You lose your job.
00:09:15Zoe, get in.
00:09:31You're coming with me.
00:09:33Look, Mr. Cross,
00:09:34I appreciate what you did,
00:09:36but I can't be seen
00:09:37going home with you every night.
00:09:39It's unprofessional.
00:09:40Zoe, you're my assistant now.
00:09:42You're going to work
00:09:42when I need you to work.
00:09:43Or I can save us
00:09:45both the trouble
00:09:45and fire you right now.
00:09:4926 hours.
00:09:49That would be a record
00:09:50even for me.
00:09:57Can I at least ask
00:09:58where we're going?
00:10:00On a date.
00:10:02What?
00:10:04Can I at least ask
00:10:05where we're going?
00:10:07On a date.
00:10:09What?
00:10:11Mr. Cross,
00:10:12I can't do this.
00:10:14Black Zoe,
00:10:15this isn't for you.
00:10:17This is for me
00:10:17and a friend.
00:10:20You brought me on a date
00:10:21with another woman.
00:10:23Technically,
00:10:23three other women.
00:10:25Why would you do that?
00:10:27I trust your judgment.
00:10:28Tell me which one of these girls
00:10:29I should marry.
00:10:32I just love yachts.
00:10:36You know,
00:10:36you sail out from L.A.
00:10:38and the entire Atlantic Ocean
00:10:40is yours.
00:10:41The Pacific Ocean.
00:10:44What?
00:10:46Never mind,
00:10:47I actually don't own the yacht.
00:10:50But you're rich!
00:10:52I'm sorry,
00:10:53this is a deal breaker.
00:10:55Maybe you should just go
00:10:56for your assistant.
00:10:57She's a little maintenance.
00:10:58Babies.
00:11:01Okay.
00:11:02Babies,
00:11:03I mean,
00:11:03they're just so small
00:11:04and they're scrungy
00:11:06and they look old,
00:11:07like old people,
00:11:08but they're little
00:11:09and they're babies
00:11:09and they don't know
00:11:10how to talk to you.
00:11:11And so,
00:11:12they start screaming
00:11:12and they start crying
00:11:14and then they poof
00:11:14and it goes everywhere
00:11:15and they throw up
00:11:16and like,
00:11:17honestly,
00:11:17it's the grossest thing
00:11:18I've ever experienced
00:11:19in my entire life.
00:11:20And not even that
00:11:21I experience babies
00:11:22because I've never been
00:11:23around babies.
00:11:23Other than the fact
00:11:24that I used to be a baby,
00:11:25I just,
00:11:25I do not like babies
00:11:28like at all.
00:11:29I think children
00:11:29are one of the most
00:11:30amazing gifts of life.
00:11:31And you are so funny,
00:11:33Ashton.
00:11:34I mean,
00:11:34the reality is
00:11:35is that babies
00:11:36would also get in the
00:11:37way of my social life
00:11:38and I have very
00:11:39high standards
00:11:41for like,
00:11:42living.
00:11:43And so,
00:11:44don't you think
00:11:45that's kind of selfish?
00:11:48I'm being a realist.
00:11:51And you're joking, right?
00:11:52A man with
00:11:53your Playboy reputation?
00:11:55You're honestly telling me
00:11:56that you,
00:11:57want to settle down
00:11:58and have children.
00:12:03You are so funny.
00:12:05You are so funny.
00:12:08My mother said
00:12:09that you study literature.
00:12:11Have you, uh,
00:12:11read Fitzgerald?
00:12:13Who?
00:12:15Oh, no,
00:12:15I didn't go to school.
00:12:17Did I go to school with him?
00:12:18I don't think
00:12:18I went to school with him.
00:12:19No, no, no.
00:12:21Uh, Fitzgerald.
00:12:22The Great Gatsby.
00:12:23Mm.
00:12:23I love Leonardo DiCaprio.
00:12:27I love him.
00:12:28I was at a party
00:12:29and he was like
00:12:30so hitting on me.
00:12:31It was so crazy.
00:12:32He was so short.
00:12:33It was so weird.
00:12:34Everything's been taken care of.
00:12:35Have a great night, alright?
00:12:36Oh, you paid for it?
00:12:37Yeah.
00:12:37Oh, really?
00:12:38Oh, thank you.
00:12:38So, wait, let's go?
00:12:39Yeah.
00:12:39Where are we going?
00:12:40Um, I have another date.
00:12:41Can you order another way,
00:12:44like, on your way out?
00:12:45Absolutely.
00:12:46Okay.
00:12:47Tell your mom I said hi.
00:12:49I miss her.
00:12:49Yes, we'll do.
00:12:50Okay.
00:12:56Absolutely.
00:12:58Cheers.
00:13:02So, um,
00:13:03Fitzgerald,
00:13:04you want kids?
00:13:06I have to say,
00:13:07I did not expect that.
00:13:09Let me guess.
00:13:10You thought I was
00:13:12some playboy
00:13:12who didn't care about anything,
00:13:14just like everybody else.
00:13:16Truth is,
00:13:18when people misunderstand you,
00:13:20and enough misunderstand you,
00:13:23you slowly forget
00:13:24who you are, too.
00:13:28This place is amazing.
00:13:32Xander and I designed this place.
00:13:35Wow.
00:13:36You were close.
00:13:39Yeah.
00:13:40Until we weren't.
00:13:44Do you have any siblings?
00:13:46No.
00:13:47Um,
00:13:49it's just me.
00:13:51You know,
00:13:53two years ago,
00:13:54it was actually me
00:13:55who was supposed to be
00:13:56on that flight to Zerich
00:13:57with my father.
00:13:59Not Xander.
00:14:01Sometimes I wish it was me.
00:14:02It was late at night.
00:14:10The car was headed
00:14:11to the airport.
00:14:15But I didn't show up.
00:14:19Xander was the heir.
00:14:23He was raised
00:14:23to take over the company.
00:14:25But I ruined him.
00:14:30You didn't ruin him.
00:14:32No one's meant to be one thing.
00:14:33I mean,
00:14:34we all have a choice.
00:14:37Not in my world, Zoe.
00:14:40You saw for yourself.
00:14:41I can't even get married
00:14:43when I'd like.
00:14:44Well,
00:14:45maybe not win,
00:14:46but you get to choose who.
00:14:48That's the most important part.
00:14:56What if I chose you?
00:14:57What if I chose you?
00:15:10What?
00:15:13You heard me.
00:15:19Zoe Campbell?
00:15:22Will you marry me?
00:15:25This is the joke.
00:15:27You're joking.
00:15:29I've
00:15:30never been more serious.
00:15:33Listen,
00:15:33Eshin,
00:15:34you may be used to getting
00:15:35whatever you want
00:15:35whenever you want it.
00:15:37I don't want to marry you
00:15:38out of convenience.
00:15:40Zoe,
00:15:41women see me
00:15:43as a golden ticket
00:15:44to money and fame.
00:15:46My father's passed away.
00:15:48Xander sees me
00:15:49as competition
00:15:50and my mother
00:15:50sees me as a pawn
00:15:51to save the family business.
00:15:53But you, Zoe,
00:15:53you actually see me
00:15:55for who I really am.
00:15:57That was good.
00:16:01You should have used that
00:16:01with some of your blind dates.
00:16:06I have to get married
00:16:07or I'm crossed off
00:16:08the trust fund.
00:16:10Negotiate your price.
00:16:12I'll have it put together.
00:16:12I'll find out the truth
00:16:15about you, Audrey.
00:16:16And I'll make him pay.
00:16:18How do I look?
00:16:33The city's most eligible bachelor
00:16:36is off the market.
00:16:37My mom gets what she wants.
00:16:39Her most able-bodied son
00:16:41takes the throne
00:16:42and keeps his trust fund.
00:16:44And today's your big day.
00:16:46See you out there.
00:16:59Mrs. Cross.
00:17:00What a lovely bride you are.
00:17:06Ashton is a very lucky man.
00:17:12But you can cut the act
00:17:13with me, sweetheart.
00:17:14I know you and Ashton
00:17:16aren't really together.
00:17:19Well, if you really believe that,
00:17:20then why didn't you do something?
00:17:23I wanted to at first,
00:17:25but then I realized
00:17:27you're actually perfect.
00:17:29I'm not.
00:17:30Why didn't you do something?
00:17:32I wanted to at first,
00:17:34but then I realized
00:17:36you're actually perfect.
00:17:39A working-class girl
00:17:41from the wrong side of the tracks.
00:17:43Pretty,
00:17:45but not too gorgeous.
00:17:49Sweet,
00:17:51but not too innocent.
00:17:54You're a real-life Cinderella,
00:17:56and the people love
00:17:58seeing a fairy tale
00:17:59come true.
00:18:01How do you know
00:18:02this will work?
00:18:04Because
00:18:05it worked for Robert and me.
00:18:10My husband built this empire,
00:18:12but he wouldn't have been able
00:18:14to rule it without me.
00:18:15And now it's your turn
00:18:17to stand next to Ashton
00:18:19on the throne.
00:18:21Support him.
00:18:23Help him.
00:18:25And play your part.
00:18:27I will,
00:18:30Mrs. Cross.
00:18:31Of course you will.
00:18:33And I intend to make sure of it.
00:18:43Stay with Ashton,
00:18:44and you'll have everything you need.
00:18:47Title,
00:18:47money,
00:18:48leave him
00:18:50or harm him
00:18:52or his company's name
00:18:53in any way.
00:18:56And not only won't you see
00:18:57a single penny,
00:18:59but I
00:19:00will personally
00:19:02destroy you.
00:19:05Well,
00:19:06that's where you're wrong,
00:19:07Mrs. Cross.
00:19:08I don't want anything from him.
00:19:12I just
00:19:13want
00:19:13Ashton.
00:19:14I think it looks
00:19:24perfect.
00:19:26Don't you think so,
00:19:28Mom?
00:19:34The essence of marriage
00:19:36is love,
00:19:37trust,
00:19:38and honesty.
00:19:40The virtues
00:19:40that we as human beings
00:19:42share.
00:19:42Ashton Cross,
00:19:45do you take this woman
00:19:46to be your wedded wife?
00:19:48I do.
00:19:50Zoe Campbell,
00:19:52do you take this man
00:19:53to be your wedded husband?
00:19:55To cherish
00:19:56for better,
00:19:57for worse,
00:19:59for richer,
00:20:00for poorer,
00:20:01until death do you part?
00:20:03Yes.
00:20:03I do.
00:20:12As a token of your vows,
00:20:32you may exchange
00:20:33your symbol of love.
00:20:34by the power vested in me
00:20:46by God,
00:20:48I now pronounce you
00:20:49husband and wife.
00:20:51You may kiss the bride.
00:20:52You may kiss the bride.
00:21:22I don't like that look.
00:21:23There seems to be a competition going on called
00:21:25Who Can Come Up With The Most Humiliating Article About Zoey Campbell.
00:21:29Zoey Campbell puts a ring on Ashton Cross a week after becoming his assistant.
00:21:33One can only imagine how good Mrs. Campbell is at impressing her boss.
00:21:40Why are you even reading that garbage?
00:21:44I'm just not used to seeing my name trending.
00:21:52Did you see something you like?
00:21:55Nothing I haven't seen before.
00:21:57Fine. I'll make you dress for dinner.
00:21:59Uh, I think you're fine. Right where you are.
00:22:22Things turning out of time.
00:22:25Through my inner demons into life.
00:22:29I've never felt like this before Zoey.
00:22:45Look me in my eyes.
00:22:47Tell me you feel the same way.
00:22:50This marriage is just a piece of paper.
00:22:57It's a contract.
00:22:59Nothing more.
00:23:03Okay.
00:23:08Ashton, what happened to the woman at your work who killed herself?
00:23:15Did you know her?
00:23:17Um, no, not really.
00:23:20I know that she was nice.
00:23:22I saw her in the office a few times, but that was it.
00:23:25Why are you asking?
00:23:27Nothing. I, um, saw it on the news.
00:23:31Thought I was sad.
00:23:33Just wanted to know what the deal was.
00:23:35Yeah.
00:23:37Don't worry about the articles.
00:23:39I'll have it taken care of.
00:23:41You won't see anything tomorrow.
00:23:45Yeah.
00:23:47Don't mention it.
00:23:49Goodnight.
00:24:15That's right.
00:24:17Receiving more information about the Dempsey shooting that took place in New York.
00:24:21Involving two rival families heavily involved in crime.
00:24:24No names have been released yet.
00:24:26The police are actively searching for suspects at large.
00:24:30Including certain members of the well-known Saviano and Benzini family.
00:24:34We'll be sure to update everyone on that story as being asked for her.
00:24:38Back to you, Tom.
00:24:40Everyone on that story as being asked for her.
00:24:43Back to you, Tom.
00:24:44Everyone on that story as being asked for her.
00:24:46Back to you, Tom.
00:24:48I really hope it wasn't you.
00:25:02I need to get rid of it all.
00:25:14Alright, well, if I can't meet the guy yet, at least have to tell me something about him.
00:25:21What do you guys do?
00:25:23Do you go dancing?
00:25:24Um, he can't really dance.
00:25:26What do you mean he can't dance?
00:25:27You love dancing.
00:25:28He just doesn't, okay?
00:25:30Zoe!
00:25:31I belong to the meeting, and I'm taking you to lunch.
00:25:38I wasn't expecting you home so soon.
00:25:40Well, can a guy take his girl out on a date?
00:25:44Yeah.
00:25:46But, I feel like there's something you're not telling me.
00:25:59I feel like there's something you're not telling me.
00:26:03You're a cheeseburger girl, aren't you?
00:26:05Not a lobster girl.
00:26:06What?
00:26:07I'm taking you to lunch.
00:26:09And, I never really asked.
00:26:11Do you like cheeseburgers or do you like lobster?
00:26:13I, um...
00:26:16Oh, uh, sounds like we need to get some food in you pretty quick.
00:26:20Don't worry.
00:26:21I already made reservations at Il Flore.
00:26:23They have cheeseburgers and lobster.
00:26:25I...
00:26:26Look, Ashton, um, there's something I have to tell you.
00:26:30Wait.
00:26:31How could I be so stupid?
00:26:33I keep making these reservations and I never even asked about your feelings.
00:26:38I keep showing you my world, but you haven't even had a chance to show me yours.
00:26:43Forget the reservations.
00:26:44Let's go wherever you want.
00:26:47Um...
00:26:48Okay.
00:26:55Mmm.
00:26:56Now this is food.
00:27:02Is everything okay?
00:27:15Yeah.
00:27:16It's just...
00:27:18I don't do stuff like this often.
00:27:21You wouldn't believe it, but this is my first ever picnic.
00:27:24What?
00:27:25Like, not even as a kid?
00:27:26Between Latin, math, leadership class, we didn't really have time to be kids.
00:27:39Come on.
00:27:40Where are we going?
00:27:41Somewhere we can be kids again.
00:27:47You want me to do this?
00:27:49Uh-huh.
00:27:50Zoe.
00:27:51I'm a 28-year-old man in an $8,500 suit.
00:27:54I'm not kidding on that.
00:27:56That's crazy.
00:27:58I married someone I knew less than 30 hours.
00:28:00I think I get to decide what's crazy or not.
00:28:04This?
00:28:05Yeah, this is the dom.
00:28:09Is this your first time on a swing?
00:28:11No.
00:28:12Why would you think that?
00:28:13Oh my god, it is.
00:28:14It is.
00:28:15Okay.
00:28:16Look, you're just going to have to trust me, okay?
00:28:17I'm not going to let you fall.
00:28:18Okay.
00:28:19Don't forget.
00:28:23When I was little, my sister used to push me so high.
00:28:25And I would just focus on the sky.
00:28:28It felt like I was flying.
00:28:31Wow.
00:28:32So, Ashton Cross, what do you think about my world?
00:28:43It's chaotic.
00:28:45But wonderful.
00:28:53Hey, you two!
00:28:55This is clearly not the time or place.
00:28:57Children!
00:28:58God, get a room!
00:28:59You see anything you like?
00:29:13Nothing I haven't seen before.
00:29:19Now, that I haven't seen before.
00:29:29I love what you've done with the place.
00:29:50None for me.
00:29:52Since when?
00:29:54Since...
00:29:57Holy shit, you're pregnant?
00:30:00Am I going to get to meet the guy before I leave town?
00:30:02It's complicated.
00:30:04He's complicated and everything's happening so fast and I'm scared that something might go wrong.
00:30:10You are happy though, right?
00:30:12I just worry about you living here without me now.
00:30:15Zoe, I'm fine.
00:30:16I mean, I don't know, you're just rushing into this relationship and now motherhood adds so much stress.
00:30:23I'm in a really good place now.
00:30:25I've been doing this new therapy.
00:30:27Yeah, but I mean, you're rushing into a relationship with this guy that is going to be the father of your child and I haven't even met him.
00:30:34Zoe, he loves me.
00:30:37He loves me.
00:30:38I know he does.
00:30:42He loves me.
00:30:43I know he does.
00:30:46You'd be crazy not to.
00:31:01Audrey?
00:31:07No!
00:31:08Audrey, please!
00:31:10Zoe, are you okay?
00:31:12Yeah.
00:31:13Zoe.
00:31:15You're screaming.
00:31:16I am.
00:31:18I am.
00:31:19I'm fine.
00:31:21I'm fine.
00:31:28I'm fine.
00:31:29Are you sure?
00:31:30I had a sister.
00:31:40Our parents died when we were young.
00:31:42So, you know, growing up in orphanages and foster homes, you never really feel like anything belongs to you.
00:31:53Snacks and toys.
00:31:55You share everything.
00:31:56And my sister, she, um, she developed this habit that anytime she felt like something was, like, hers, truly hers, she would, um, write her initials on it.
00:32:11She was all I had.
00:32:17And now that she's gone, I just feel like I don't have anything.
00:32:22I totally understand.
00:32:35My dad was the only person alive who understood me.
00:32:38And after he died, I haven't had a real connection with anyone since.
00:32:43Anything remotely real, Xander would sabotage out of jealousy.
00:32:52My ear.
00:32:54My ear.
00:33:11Now you can have something that's actually yours again.
00:33:13You can't blame this all on your brother.
00:33:27You need to learn to control your anger.
00:33:30It's consuming you.
00:33:32If you're not asking, I'm not answering.
00:33:34You know this is the only way.
00:33:35It should be me and you know it.
00:33:38And he had the nerve to offer me an advisor position to the company you took away from me.
00:33:44You think I want to hand the company over to him?
00:33:53You're right, Xander. It should be you.
00:33:55But we have the board and the shareholders to convince.
00:34:00And they're blind.
00:34:02All they see is you in a wheelchair.
00:34:04Fuck the board! Fuck the shareholders!
00:34:06This is what I mean!
00:34:08The rage!
00:34:10You were once committed to getting better.
00:34:13We can get over what happened.
00:34:16But you have to want it.
00:34:19He doesn't deserve everything.
00:34:20Your father would have wanted you both to be happy.
00:34:24And that's all I want for you.
00:34:41Are you sure you're not coming?
00:34:43Do I want to go to a charity gala that zombie rich people hold just to feel better about buying three million dollar mansions and not paying debt?
00:34:50Do you want to pay taxes?
00:34:52Mmm, I'm good.
00:34:54Thank you, Tom.
00:34:55Hey, you better watch it.
00:34:57You're married to one of those rich snobby people now.
00:35:00Come on, Zoe.
00:35:02We'll find some way to have fun.
00:35:10Go.
00:35:12You'll be late.
00:35:14Fine.
00:35:15I'll have a car to pick you up if you change your mind.
00:35:20What is this?
00:35:32Nothing I haven't seen before.
00:35:33Audrey.
00:35:59Can you get the car ready please?
00:36:01I am going to the gala.
00:36:04And um...
00:36:06Don't let Mr. Cross know I'm coming.
00:36:09I want it to be a surprise.
00:36:16Care to grab your brother a drink?
00:36:18I love her.
00:36:28So, how's the married life? And how's my sister and mom?
00:36:32She's good. You know, this isn't really her thing.
00:36:37That's good. You know, I was worried about her.
00:36:40People are going to say what they're going to say, but she shouldn't let those rumors bother her.
00:36:45Rumors?
00:36:47What are you talking about? I took care of everything.
00:36:50This came out 30 minutes ago.
00:36:53An anonymous source leaked the prenuptial agreement between real estate mogul Ashton Cross and Zoe Campbell, showing that this is a well-constructed fake marriage.
00:37:02The news confirms suspicions that Zoe is a ploy for Ashton to finally seize the throne of Cross Enterprise.
00:37:09I'm just glad Zoe's not here to take the blah out.
00:37:20Zoe?
00:37:28You told me you barely knew her.
00:37:29What are you talking about?
00:37:30I'm talking about this book.
00:37:32That's Xander's book.
00:37:33Zoe, we've got something bigger going on right now.
00:37:35What do you mean it's Xander's book? How could he...?
00:37:37Yeah, I can tell you're upset, but...
00:37:41Look at this.
00:37:43An anonymous source leaked the prenuptial agreement between real estate mogul Ashton Cross and Zoe Campbell, showing that this is a well-constructed fake marriage.
00:37:51I know that this is a sham marriage.
00:37:54But I'm falling for you.
00:37:57And I want to protect us.
00:37:59Protect you.
00:38:02I don't know why, but I believe you.
00:38:03I don't know if you're a psychopath or...
00:38:08If everything I thought I knew was wrong.
00:38:11I don't know what's going on with you.
00:38:14I am falling for you, but these people, they're going to eat you alive.
00:38:17Well...
00:38:19I like to think I act fast under pressure.
00:38:24Zoe, wait!
00:38:25Zoe, what are you doing?
00:38:26Good evening, ladies and gentlemen.
00:38:27I'm Zoe Cross.
00:38:28I'm sure you all know my husband, Ashton Cross.
00:38:29Now, I'm aware that many are questioning the authenticity of our marriage, and I'm here to confirm that it's true.
00:38:32Our marriage was a sham.
00:38:34I signed a prenup agreeing to marry Ashton because I thought that it would bring me wealth and fame.
00:38:38cross. Now, I'm aware that many are questioning the authenticity of our marriage and I'm here
00:38:47to confirm that it's true. Our marriage was a sham. I signed a prenup agreeing to marry
00:38:57Ashton because I thought that it would bring me wealth and fame, but I was wrong. It turned
00:39:05out to be so much more than that. He isn't just this spoiled rich kid, playboy, heartbreaker.
00:39:15Everything people say is just to sell stories. He's actually kinder and stronger and better,
00:39:28and I want him to know that I'm falling for him, too.
00:39:34I don't know.
00:39:58I don't know.
00:40:28I can feel you staring at me.
00:40:51I haven't felt like this in a while.
00:40:55I feel like myself.
00:40:59Sometimes, when I look in the mirror, I don't recognize myself.
00:41:05When I see you, I see you.
00:41:12You promise?
00:41:16Cross my heart.
00:41:20Hey, Chad.
00:41:34Of course.
00:41:36What can I do for you?
00:41:40I know that you are the anonymous source and that you sent the press our marriage contract.
00:41:46And I want to make a deal.
00:41:48Why would I do something like that?
00:41:51It doesn't matter.
00:41:52And I don't care.
00:41:53But for whatever reason you're doing it, you're coming between Ashton and I.
00:41:58You mean your scam of a marriage?
00:42:00It was.
00:42:01But it's real now.
00:42:02I just want you and Ashton to repair this relationship so that we can all be happy.
00:42:09What's your angle here?
00:42:11There's no angle.
00:42:12There's no angle.
00:42:13I just...
00:42:14I'm going through my own trauma and there are a lot of things that I wish I could go back
00:42:19and say differently to my sis...
00:42:26I know you have a history and I know that it's difficult.
00:42:31But it's worth making amends.
00:42:33Does he know I leaked this story to the press?
00:42:37I know.
00:42:38He's been through enough already.
00:42:50Whatever hurt that you've caused each other can be forgiven.
00:42:55What if the things you've done aren't forgivable?
00:43:00The past doesn't matter.
00:43:03Just what you do now matters.
00:43:07You fell for him.
00:43:09I got to know him.
00:43:12Maybe you should too.
00:43:17Maybe.
00:43:33I really hope that you and your brother can work things out.
00:43:40I'd like nothing more than to get closer to you, Zoe.
00:43:43This is impossible.
00:43:55This is important, Henry.
00:43:56I need to know I can trust you on this.
00:43:57Of course you can, Xander.
00:43:58But why are you...
00:43:59I don't need questions, Henry.
00:44:00I need answers.
00:44:01Don't worry.
00:44:02Don't worry.
00:44:03I'll have the test results in 24 hours.
00:44:04Good.
00:44:05Call me when you have it.
00:44:06Good.
00:44:07Call me when you have it.
00:44:08And remember.
00:44:09I was never here.
00:44:10I was never here.
00:44:11I was never here.
00:44:12I'm a man.
00:44:13You were all right.
00:44:14You were ready.
00:44:15You were truly satisfied on the trip.
00:44:16Maybe you were a man, you were okay?
00:44:17I'm a lady?
00:44:18I'm not a man.
00:44:19I'm not a man.
00:44:20I am a man.
00:44:21I'm a man.
00:44:22You are a man.
00:44:23You've got a man.
00:44:24You're a man.
00:44:25You're a man.
00:44:26You're a man.
00:44:27You're a man.
00:44:28I know that you are the anonymous source.
00:44:58Hey, I have the test results. It's a perfect match.
00:45:02So they're related.
00:45:03It's more than that, Xander. I said, perfect match.
00:45:07The two DNA samples are identical.
00:45:11I feel like I know you from somewhere.
00:45:13Maybe another life.
00:45:19They're twins.
00:45:28Good morning, Mrs. Cross. Is it about time?
00:45:47For cleaning?
00:45:49Yes, Mrs. Cross. I come every Monday. I can always come back.
00:45:53No, come in. I'll just go get a coffee.
00:45:57It won't take long, Mrs. Cross.
00:46:18I'm in.
00:46:19This takes time, Xander.
00:46:25I'm a private detective, not a sniffer dog.
00:46:28Jack Black.
00:46:40Jack Black.
00:46:45If you're thinking of having one of those, I won't object.
00:47:12You handled the crisis, wow.
00:47:16I was sure you'd run away with your tail between your legs.
00:47:20But you stayed.
00:47:23But what for?
00:47:26Now I know no one gets close to my sons without wanting something.
00:47:31The question is, what do you want?
00:47:42Voila.
00:47:50What do you want?
00:47:55You're right, Lauren.
00:47:56I think I did want something from Ashton, but I don't know that I want it now.
00:48:04I recognize that look on your face.
00:48:10It happened to me with Robert, Sander and Ashton's father.
00:48:14I fell in love with a man I hated.
00:48:19It was an arranged marriage and I didn't want to be in it.
00:48:23I got to truly know him and it changed me.
00:48:31Don't stare at me like that, Zoe.
00:48:34You might think I'm a witch whose heart is made of stone, but I still know what love is.
00:48:47You wanted to see me?
00:48:48Take a seat.
00:48:54What's up?
00:48:55I found something and I think you should see this.
00:49:03She's Audrey's sister?
00:49:05She changed her identity, her face, just to get close to you.
00:49:09Why?
00:49:10Think about it, Ashton.
00:49:11She came into your life out of nowhere three months after Audrey's death.
00:49:14She lied to you, married you, manipulated you, shared a bed with you.
00:49:20There's only one thing that drives people this far.
00:49:24Revenge.
00:49:26I'm sorry little brother, but it looks like it's time to wake up from this dream.
00:49:36You're just saying that because you want me to help run your precious company.
00:49:40Yes, I was Robert's wife and his company is very important to me.
00:49:44But I'm also a mother.
00:49:50I can see Ashton cares about you more than the others.
00:49:56He has calmed his playboy antics.
00:50:01I can see he's a better person with you.
00:50:04There was one woman before, but she disappeared.
00:50:07Who knows why?
00:50:08She probably couldn't handle the pressure of being across.
00:50:14There was one woman before, but she disappeared.
00:50:17Who knows why?
00:50:18She probably couldn't handle the pressure of being across.
00:50:21Love isn't logical, Zoe.
00:50:23And loving Ashton is probably the most illogical thing you could do.
00:50:27But that doesn't make it wrong.
00:50:33Wait.
00:50:34There was another woman?
00:50:38A serious relationship?
00:50:39What happened to her?
00:50:40I don't know, Zoe.
00:50:42You probably got sick of her like all the other girls.
00:50:46You're here now.
00:50:47She's gone forever.
00:50:49And for some reason, he likes keeping you around.
00:50:52So you're my only hope.
00:50:55Your only hope for what?
00:50:57A family legacy, Zoe.
00:51:00Xander can't give me a grandchild, but Ashton can.
00:51:04Ashton is the future of this company and this family.
00:51:08Xander's reign ended in that car accident.
00:51:11Everything is working according to plan.
00:51:15At least for Ashton.
00:51:17Ashton?
00:51:30You actually believe it?
00:51:33That I killed Audrey?
00:51:35I don't want to.
00:51:37But I see it now.
00:51:41The AC tattoo.
00:51:43The high profile lover.
00:51:46A pregnancy.
00:51:48It has to be you.
00:51:50There's no other explanation.
00:51:56Wait.
00:51:58Audrey was pregnant?
00:52:00You didn't know, did you?
00:52:09When you pushed her off the balcony?
00:52:11I never slept with Audrey.
00:52:14She was with someone else.
00:52:17Stop lying to me.
00:52:19You've been lying to me!
00:52:21I wanted to tell you.
00:52:23But how do you tell someone?
00:52:25That you completely changed what you looked like to avenge your sister's death.
00:52:29You made me fall in love with you.
00:52:33And I fell in love with the man who murdered my Audrey.
00:52:37I didn't kill her, Zoe.
00:52:40I swear.
00:52:43It crossed my heart.
00:52:59I really wish that it wasn't you.
00:53:10Would you believe me?
00:53:11If I said I really did love you.
00:53:21Neither would I.
00:53:22I don't know.
00:53:23I was going to die.
00:53:24Goodbye.
00:53:33Bye.
00:53:37Bye.
00:53:38Bye.
00:53:46Bye.
00:53:47Bye.
00:53:47Bye.
00:53:48Bye.
00:53:49Bye.
00:53:50Bye.
00:53:50Bye.
00:53:50Bye.
00:53:51Bye.
00:53:52I don't know.
00:54:22Paternity test results.
00:54:47Xander, now's not a good time.
00:54:50Now was the perfect time.
00:54:51I know where Zoe is.
00:54:53I'll send you the address, but you better hurry if you want to say goodbye.
00:54:59What are you talking about?
00:55:01Everyone has their tipping point, Ash.
00:55:04All I need to do is give her one tiny push.
00:55:09Xander, if you hurt her, I'll kill you.
00:55:14You've already done that, Ash.
00:55:16Two years ago.
00:55:18Xander.
00:55:20Xander.
00:55:22Faternity test results.
00:55:32A family legacy, Zoe.
00:55:40I see.
00:55:42Xander can't give me a grandchild, but Ashton can.
00:55:44Xander can.
00:55:45Xander cross.

00:59:56my job my title my reputation
01:00:01But in order to do that, I got to make sure you never get in my way again.
01:00:07You see two sisters dying in the same apartment.
01:00:12That's going to lead to suspicion.
01:00:14But if I can connect...
01:00:15Have you lost your mind?
01:00:16Let me fucking finish.
01:00:19If I can connect them to the same men...
01:00:25You killed Audrey?
01:00:26You killed Audrey?
01:00:32You did.
01:00:34Soon the B-CEO turns out to be a maniac.
01:00:38Brutally killing his mistress and his wife.
01:00:41After he kills her, he turns himself in.
01:00:45Or puts the gun to his own head, I don't care.
01:00:48You choose, little brother.
01:00:50You can't get away with it.
01:00:52Of course I will.
01:00:53All I got to do is convince the shareholders.
01:00:57You'd be surprised how quickly a bunch of lies can turn into the truth.
01:01:02But enough of that.
01:01:03We don't have all night.
01:01:04Ladies first.
01:01:11Xander, you don't have to do this!
01:01:13Shut the fuck up!
01:01:14Just shut the fuck up.
01:01:16Please.
01:01:18You're too late, little brother.
01:01:20Two years too late.
01:01:21You chose this.
01:01:24You could have lived your life with someone who truly loved you, but instead you murdered her.
01:01:27She never loved me.
01:01:28She had an AC tattoo!
01:01:30She loved you so much that she marked herself as yours!
01:01:33She betrayed me with another man!
01:01:36Did you not see the paternity test?
01:01:41It's all right here.
01:01:42If you kill me now, the police will come and they'll find me and they'll link me to Audrey and they'll know that you murdered her while she was pregnant with your baby!
01:01:54You're fucking lying!
01:01:56You should have trusted Audrey.
01:01:57But you were so blinded by your jealousy and your anger, that you killed someone who truly loved you.
01:02:14Action!
01:02:15You're a liar, Zoe Campbell.
01:02:25And you're dead.
01:02:30Audrey Hale.
01:02:32Mother.
01:02:3499.9% match with...
01:02:39Alexandra Cross.
01:02:43Father.
01:02:43Oh, Jesus.
01:02:46What have I done?
01:02:49What have I done?
01:02:52I'm so sorry, Audrey.
01:02:54So that we don't have to keep this a secret.
01:03:00You're pregnant.
01:03:02Yeah.
01:03:02We're gonna have a baby.
01:03:06I'm so sorry.

01:04:02Audrey.
01:04:06I know the perfect name.
01:04:08Audrey.
01:04:12That's perfect.
01:04:16You wanna swing?
01:04:18Don't let me fall, okay?
01:04:22Cross my heart.
01:04:24Ready?
01:04:26Okay.
01:04:32How does it feel?
01:04:34Like I'm flying.
