Short filmTranscript
00:00:00Billionaire from Montgomery Enterprises, Aston Montgomery, who is known for his corporate ruthlessness.
00:00:06Stella Evans, you didn't even graduate from college?
00:00:14Mr. Montgomery, it's your love child.
00:00:17You said there'd be no more scandals.
00:00:19No, father, there are no scandals.
00:00:21Be my fiancé and the mother of my child until my father signs the company over to me.
00:00:26Then I will pay you five million dollars.
00:00:29Fine, but only because my rent's already overdue.
00:00:32It's hard to believe you had a baby less than a year ago.
00:00:37The Montgomerys don't associate with peasants.
00:00:39Touch my wife again, I will end you.
00:00:41No, my baby!
00:00:43Maybe Michael Daston won't be so bad after all.
00:00:46I would do anything for you, anything for our family.
00:00:49Aston isn't the man you think he is, whatever feelings you think he may have.
00:00:55I love you, Stella Evans.
00:00:57It's all just one big lie.
00:00:59I have meant every word I have said to you.
00:01:03I'm in, Stella, I'm all in!
00:01:05Are you?
00:01:06You have to be prepared.
00:01:07I don't have, Mom.
00:01:08I'm not gonna let you die, Mom.
00:01:09You're gonna beat this cancer.
00:01:11You have to be prepared.
00:01:12I don't have, Mom.
00:01:13I'm not gonna let you die, Mom.
00:01:14You're gonna beat this cancer.
00:01:18Danny, what are you doing?!
00:01:21What does it look like I'm doing?
00:01:23You have to be prepared.
00:01:26I don't have Ma.
00:01:30I'm not gonna let you die, Ma.
00:01:32You're gonna beat this cancer.
00:01:42Danny, what are you doing?
00:01:44What does it look like I'm doing?
00:01:46Your red slate.
00:01:53It's two days late and you said it wouldn't be an issue.
00:01:57I changed my mind.
00:01:59So, unless you want to pay up with that tiny lot of yours,
00:02:03you're out by tomorrow morning.
00:02:07You've got to be kidding me. I have never been late before.
00:02:10And you know my mom's medical bills are insane.
00:02:17You should have thought of that before dumping me.
00:02:21I'll get you the money.
00:02:23I have a job interview today and the signing bonus will be more than enough to cover it.
00:02:27Just give me 24 hours.
00:02:32And you better get that job.
00:02:35Tick-tock cupcake.
00:02:37Billionaire financer Robert Montgomery has announced his retirement from Montgomery Enterprises this morning, the company he built five decades ago.
00:02:46His successor is presumed to be Aston Montgomery, his eldest son and heir who is known not only for his Playboy ways but his corporate ruthlessness.
00:02:55Stella Evans?
00:02:56Stella Evans?
00:02:57Come with me.
00:03:10So, you don't have any corporate experience and you didn't even graduate from college?
00:03:19Well, something came up at home and I couldn't.
00:03:20I'm not running a charity, Ms. Evans. I'm sorry but I can't hire you.
00:03:25Please.
00:03:26I really need the money.
00:03:27So do 400 other applicants. What makes you so special?
00:03:28I may not be experienced but I'm a quick learner.
00:03:29And I really need the money.
00:03:30And I need someone who already knows what they're doing.
00:03:31This interview is over.
00:03:32I'm not running a charity, Ms. Evans.
00:03:33I'm not running a charity, Ms. Evans.
00:03:34I'm sorry but I can't hire you.
00:03:35Please.
00:03:36I really need the money.
00:03:37So do 400 other applicants.
00:03:38What makes you so special?
00:03:39I may not be experienced but I'm a quick learner and I really need the money.
00:03:54And I need someone who already knows what they're doing.
00:03:57This interview is over.
00:04:04Hey, you can't just walk away from me you entitled prick.
00:04:10What did you say to me?
00:04:11You heard me just because you think you're better than everyone else.
00:04:20Shut up.
00:04:26What is that doing in my office?
00:04:36Can I see that?
00:04:49That, Mr. Montgomery, is your love child.
00:04:56I'm a father.
00:05:09What?
00:05:10What do I do?
00:05:11You said you needed a job.
00:05:13Help me.
00:05:14Come here, Emma.
00:05:26Here you go.
00:05:28It's okay.
00:05:30It's okay.
00:05:31Perhaps I misjudged you.
00:05:45It's okay.
00:05:46It's okay.
00:05:47It's okay.
00:05:48So the rumors are true.
00:05:49I'm a grandfather.
00:05:50No, father.
00:05:51This is not-
00:05:52The board will never let an irresponsible playboy lead the company.
00:05:56You said there'd be no more scandals.
00:05:59I have no choice but to turn the company over to your brother, Clive.
00:06:03No, father.
00:06:04There are no scandals.
00:06:06Father.
00:06:07This is Stella.
00:06:08My fiancee and the mother of my child.
00:06:13What the fuck?
00:06:15Excuse me?
00:06:16You expect me to believe this low-class woman is your fiancee?
00:06:29Do not speak about her that way.
00:06:31I love her.
00:06:33And I'm tired of hiding it.
00:06:36Right, honey?
00:06:39Please go with it.
00:06:42Tell me to yourself.
00:06:44Or what?
00:06:45Or you'll find out how much of a sweetheart I really am.
00:06:47You're really going to let your fiancee act like that?
00:06:49Oh, yeah.
00:06:50I encourage it, actually.
00:06:51So unless you want to see what she's really made of, I suggest you back the fuck off.
00:06:55And one more thing.
00:06:57Touch my fiancee again.
00:06:59I'll break more than just your camera.
00:07:01Sir, sir.
00:07:02Mr. Montgomery, can we answer our question, please?
00:07:04Mr. Montgomery, you cannot ignore us, Mr. Montgomery.
00:07:07Come on now, Mr. Montgomery.
00:07:08Sir, what do you have to do?
00:07:12This place is beautiful.
00:07:27So what do we do now?
00:07:30Simple.
00:07:31We do what fiancees do.
00:07:33Look at me.
00:07:48What the hell was that?
00:08:03This is part of the deal.
00:08:05Alright, we have to sell it.
00:08:07I have someone looking into where Emma came from.
00:08:09They should all be sorted out soon.
00:08:11What will be sorted, brother?
00:08:13Clive?
00:08:15Welcome home.
00:08:18This fiancee and baby certainly came out of nowhere, didn't they?
00:08:22What are you doing here, Clive?
00:08:24I came to meet my niece and soon-to-be sister-in-law, you know.
00:08:28Since it all happened so fast.
00:08:32Stella... Evans, is it?
00:08:37And what trash barrel did you crawl out of?
00:08:42The trash barrel I crawled out of is none of your business.
00:08:46Au contraire, mon cherie.
00:08:49It's most definitely my business.
00:08:52The Montgomerys don't associate with peasants.
00:08:55Bad for business.
00:08:56Leaper, oh mo!
00:08:58Of what?
00:08:59Care to find out?
00:09:00Care to find out?
00:09:04Care to find out?
00:09:08So, my playboy brother does have feelings.
00:09:11And for a low-class gold digger, no less.
00:09:15Be careful.
00:09:16It's only a matter of time before he dumps you and that baby back into the gutter where you came from.
00:09:24She's cute.
00:09:33Looks just like you, brother.
00:09:49Get away from our baby and get out of our house!
00:09:51Fine.
00:09:52But there's something weird going on here, and I'll find out what it is.
00:09:56The CEO position will be mine.
00:09:59And the first thing I'll do is fire you, brother.
00:10:15Is everyone in your family like that?
00:10:17My half-brother is just the tip of the iceberg.
00:10:21So keep your guard up.
00:10:26I have a few things I have to do.
00:10:29Your room is upstairs.
00:10:34What have I gotten myself into?
00:10:37At least I'll be able to take care of my mom when this is all over.
00:10:40If there's anything you need while I'm gone, just call.
00:10:43But the nurse will take care of you.
00:10:45How did you get the money for a nurse?
00:10:47It's so expensive.
00:10:49I...
00:10:51I got a job.
00:10:53Don't worry about me.
00:10:57I gotta go.
00:10:58I'll see you soon.
00:10:59I'm done.
00:11:12Holy...
00:11:13Hot.
00:11:18See something you like?
00:11:23I...
00:11:24Miss Evans? Everything okay?
00:11:31Emma needs us.
00:11:34Right behind you.
00:11:44What's wrong with her?
00:11:46Hey, hey, hey.
00:11:49Shhh, there you go.
00:11:52Chilling baby girl.
00:11:54How did you do that?
00:11:56She just wanted to be held.
00:11:58You should hold her.
00:11:59Oh, I don't know about that.
00:12:01She's your daughter.
00:12:03She probably wants you more than anyone else.
00:12:07Trust me, I wish my dad was around.
00:12:10I've never held a baby before and she's so little I don't want to hurt her.
00:12:16Aston, she's yours.
00:12:19You can't be scared of her forever.
00:12:22Hey, Emma.
00:12:26I'm your daddy.
00:12:29See?
00:12:30That wasn't so bad.
00:12:32Hot.
00:12:33I'm your daddy.
00:12:34See?
00:12:35That wasn't so bad.
00:12:38Okay.
00:12:39Goodnight, Emma.
00:12:40It's the private investigator.
00:12:41The sooner I find out who Emma's mom is, the better.
00:12:46The sooner I find out who Emma's mom is, the better.
00:12:52The sooner I find out who Emma's mom is, the better.
00:12:53The sooner I find out who Emma's mom is, the better.
00:12:59Did the private chef make all this?
00:13:00No.
00:13:01No.
00:13:02I did.
00:13:03No.
00:13:04I did.
00:13:05The playboy billionaire.
00:13:06The playboy billionaire who cooks.
00:13:37The better.
00:13:38The better.
00:13:39I've never judged you.
00:13:40Not such a prick after all, huh?
00:13:41Maybe life with Aston won't be so bad after all.
00:13:44Uh, but back to business.
00:13:51My family is coming over for dinner tonight.
00:13:56They want to meet you.
00:13:58Your family?
00:13:59Aston, I can't-
00:14:00Oh, you can.
00:14:01And you will.
00:14:11This is part of the deal.
00:14:13If you want the money, everyone has to believe that you're my fiancé and the mother of my
00:14:17child, starting with my family.
00:14:25Mom?
00:14:26Mom?
00:14:27Ah!
00:14:28Can you hear me?
00:14:29Ah!
00:14:30My mom's in trouble.
00:14:38Danny, what are you doing?
00:14:40I paid you!
00:14:41Ah!
00:14:42Well, I changed my mind when I heard you were checking out with some billionaire.
00:14:46Ah!
00:14:47Ah!
00:15:09Knock it off!
00:15:10You know my mom needs that medicine.
00:15:11Yeah.
00:15:12Well, now that you've come into some money, you can pay me more.
00:15:16Two years, man, she'll do it.
00:15:17She'll pay you what she owes you and not a cent more.
00:15:19This is your billionaire boyfriend?
00:15:20Actually, he's my fiancé.
00:15:21And he's rich.
00:15:22And powerful.
00:15:23He has a bigger dick than you.
00:15:26You really think you're good enough for him?
00:15:27I only fucked you because I felt sorry for you and your dying mind.
00:15:33Stella is more than good enough for me.
00:15:34If you touch her again, I will kill you.
00:15:35No.
00:15:36No.
00:15:37No.
00:15:38No.
00:15:39No.
00:15:40No.
00:15:41No.
00:15:42No.
00:15:43No.
00:15:44No.
00:15:45No.
00:15:46No.
00:15:47No.
00:15:48No.
00:15:49No.
00:15:50No.
00:15:51No.
00:15:52No.
00:15:53No.
00:15:54No.
00:15:55No.
00:15:56No.
00:15:57No.
00:15:58No.
00:15:59No.
00:16:00Don't make me believe me!
00:16:01And if you touch her again, I will kill you!
00:16:06Maybe you won't kill me.
00:16:07Aston.
00:16:08Stop!
00:16:09He's not worth it.
00:16:10Dolarly.
00:16:11Stella!
00:16:12Mom!
00:16:13Mom!!!
00:16:14Mom!
00:16:15Hey!
00:16:16I...
00:16:17wag Ross...
00:16:18possessions.
00:16:19He took my medicine.
00:16:21I have it right here, Mrs. Evans.
00:16:24I have it right here, Mrs. Evans.
00:16:28That man would never bother you again.
00:16:30I will make sure of it.
00:16:34And I'm sending someone for your things.
00:16:36You're coming to live with us.
00:16:46Thank you for helping me with my mom.
00:16:50That wasn't part of the deal.
00:16:54Not everything I do has to be about our deal, Stella.
00:17:06Still, thank you.
00:17:10And I'm sorry for calling you a prick earlier.
00:17:12Why?
00:17:14I can be a prick.
00:17:16When I really want to be.
00:17:18Speaking of our deal.
00:17:22Speaking of our deal.
00:17:24Be ready by 7pm for the family dinner.
00:17:28But I have nothing to wear.
00:17:32I'll take care of that.
00:17:34Bye.
00:17:38Bye.
00:17:40Bye.
00:17:42Bye.
00:17:44Bye.
00:17:46Bye.
00:17:48I hoped you'd pick the red.
00:18:11You look beautiful.
00:18:14I'm still debating what shoes to wear, though.
00:18:17Allow me.
00:18:47There's one thing missing.
00:18:57There's one thing missing.
00:19:04A ring.
00:19:07May I?
00:19:07No.
00:19:22Perfect fit.
00:19:24Justin, it's...
00:19:28too much.
00:19:31I don't deserve this.
00:19:32No. Whoever told you this is more than you deserve is wrong.
00:19:38Because nothing is too much for my future wife.
00:19:41Even if it's only for appearances.
00:19:44You were made to wear it.
00:19:51Let's go.
00:19:54I want to show off my new fiancée.
00:20:02Are you ready to sell this?
00:20:22Asked in a word.
00:20:27It'll take a moment.
00:20:31Go.
00:20:32I'll be fine.
00:20:49Stella.
00:20:50How nice of you to join us.
00:20:53This is the woman who trapped our Aston with a bastard child.
00:20:59Funny.
00:21:00It's hard to believe that you had a baby less than a year ago.
00:21:04Mother, be nice.
00:21:06I'm sure Stella's trying her best.
00:21:13Oh, I didn't know Aston had a sister.
00:21:15Aston's ex-fiancée.
00:21:21I'm Clarissa.
00:21:24Aston's ex-fiancée.
00:21:25Oh, God.
00:21:34Is she pregnant with Aston's baby?
00:21:39No wonder Aston didn't introduce you earlier.
00:21:42You're nothing like me.
00:21:43And thank God for that.
00:21:46Stella would never cheat on me and get knocked up by my brother.
00:21:49At least we didn't hide our child from the entire family.
00:21:52That's right.
00:21:54Where even is my step-grandbaby?
00:21:58You see, Robert, he's as negligent a father as he would be a CEO.
00:22:03She's with the nanny.
00:22:04To keep her from the judgment of people like you.
00:22:07All that matters is our judgment.
00:22:09And bringing in this peasant certainly doesn't help your case.
00:22:15Excuse me?
00:22:16Who are you calling peasant?
00:22:18Being rich doesn't mean you can walk all over me.
00:22:22How dare you talk back to me like that?
00:22:29You can't even control your worthless fiancée.
00:22:31You'll never be good enough to be CEO.
00:22:36Aston is the only person who should run Montgomery Enterprises.
00:22:40Anyone else as CEO would be a mistake.
00:22:43Especially your son.
00:22:45You have upset my fiancée and I won't stand for that.
00:22:56Dinner is canceled.
00:22:58Get out of my house!
00:23:02Now.
00:23:15I'm sorry if I was out of line.
00:23:22No.
00:23:23Thank you for defending me.
00:23:26You didn't have to do that.
00:23:29Of course I did.
00:23:33I'm your fiancée.
00:23:39I never should have watched any of this.
00:23:43It's not fair to you.
00:23:45I'll pay you what I owe you.
00:23:47Just...
00:23:48Take the money and go, Stella.
00:23:53What's going to happen to you and Emma?
00:23:55Don't worry about us.
00:23:56I do worry about you.
00:24:00I care about you both.
00:24:01I'm sorry, Stella, but...
00:24:04This contract with me and this is over.
00:24:09What contract?
00:24:15I told you what would happen if I caught you lying.
00:24:26We're not lying.
00:24:28Prove it.
00:24:30We were just talking about a prenup.
00:24:33Aston wants me to sign one to protect your family.
00:24:36I think it's admirable.
00:24:42I see.
00:24:54You've saved me twice in the last 20 minutes.
00:24:56You are not what I expected.
00:25:03What did you expect?
00:25:07I don't know.
00:25:09Not you.
00:25:10Why are you looking at me like you want to kiss me?
00:25:18Because I do want to kiss you.
00:25:26Because I do want to kiss you.
00:25:29That's all I've thought about since you put on that red dress.
00:25:31We probably shouldn't complicate this whole fake relationship thing.
00:25:41Especially since we're not actually getting married.
00:25:46You're right.
00:25:48We'll break off this engagement as soon as possible and we'll both get everything we want.
00:26:01I have some good news.
00:26:14You're getting married.
00:26:16Tomorrow.
00:26:25Congratulations.
00:26:26By this time tomorrow, you'll officially be husband and wife.
00:26:29Tomorrow?
00:26:33Unless there's some sort of problem with getting married tomorrow.
00:26:36It's just...
00:26:38We're not in a rush.
00:26:40But the board is.
00:26:42A child out of wedlock is a scandal.
00:26:46And one that must be remedied immediately.
00:26:51I hope that won't be a problem.
00:26:59Married?
00:27:03That wasn't part of the deal.
00:27:05I know.
00:27:08But would it be so bad being married to me?
00:27:14No.
00:27:16It's just...
00:27:18This isn't exactly how I pictured getting married.
00:27:21It takes some time to think about it.
00:27:34But I need an auntie tonight.
00:27:35Mom, how did you know when you were ready to get married?
00:27:51I don't think anybody ever is ready.
00:27:56Truly.
00:27:56I mean, your father and I certainly weren't.
00:28:00You weren't?
00:28:01No.
00:28:02We were young.
00:28:05Too young, even.
00:28:08But your father made me feel the way I'd never felt before.
00:28:13He made me feel loved.
00:28:15Valued.
00:28:18Whole.
00:28:18It didn't even work out.
00:28:36It ended before I was born.
00:28:40Just because something doesn't last
00:28:42doesn't mean you can't enjoy it while you have it.
00:28:48Plus,
00:28:53your father gave me you,
00:28:56which is more than enough.
00:28:59I can't deny it.
00:29:01I want to marry Aston,
00:29:02even if it's temporary.
00:29:04He and Emma are my family.
00:29:07But we would break my heart when it's all over.
00:29:08No.
00:29:18She just went down.
00:29:24Look, I know this isn't what you wanted.
00:29:26And you deserve to marry someone who truly cares about you.
00:29:31So,
00:29:32if you want to walk away now,
00:29:36I won't blame you.
00:29:38Do you have an answer for me?
00:29:48So,
00:29:49do you have an answer for me?
00:29:52I do.
00:29:56Aston, look at me.
00:29:57I never thought I would get married as part of a contract,
00:30:02but
00:30:02I said I'd help you
00:30:04and I'll keep my word.
00:30:10It means a lot to me.
00:30:11I have to say I'm surprised Aston is going through with this.
00:30:19I definitely thought that he would have dumped you by now.
00:30:22He probably will once he sees her in that rag.
00:30:26It was my mother's wedding dress.
00:30:28Of course it was.
00:30:30Only a poor person would wear something like that.
00:30:33I'm surprised your Prince Charming didn't buy you something better.
00:30:36He clearly doesn't care about you.
00:30:38It doesn't matter what you think.
00:30:43I know how Aston feels.
00:30:45Are you sure
00:30:45if he really loved you,
00:30:48he would have given you his
00:30:50mother's ring?
00:30:54Are you sure
00:30:55if he really loved you,
00:30:58he would have given you his
00:30:59mother's ring?
00:31:08Is that what he gave you, Clarissa?
00:31:13No.
00:31:14But that's only because I wanted something bigger.
00:31:21From Mr. Montgomery.
00:31:23For his fiancée.
00:31:25Oh my god.
00:31:28It's gorgeous.
00:31:29That's the late
00:31:30Mrs. Montgomery's necklace.
00:31:33That's supposed to be mine.
00:31:35I am under strict
00:31:37orders.
00:31:38To allow nobody
00:31:39but Ms. Evans
00:31:40near this necklace.
00:31:42Especially you.
00:31:43No.
00:32:02You look like the future
00:32:03Mrs. Montgomery.
00:32:04I do.
00:32:08If only this were real.
00:32:26I know that you and Aston
00:32:27are lying about your relationship.
00:32:29So if you know what's best,
00:32:32you won't go through with this wedding.
00:32:36Aston isn't who you think he is.
00:32:42So if you know what's best,
00:32:44you won't go through with this wedding.
00:32:49Aston isn't the man you think he is.
00:32:51Whatever money you think you might be getting.
00:32:54Whatever feelings you think he may have.
00:32:57It's all just one big lie.
00:33:01Your vision of the future is not the reality.
00:33:04Thank you for the advice.
00:33:12But I don't need it.
00:33:15I can handle myself.
00:33:17And nothing you say can scare me.
00:33:19Say no to Aston in front of everyone.
00:33:26Or I'll make sure you regret it.
00:33:29Your choice, Stella Evans.
00:33:31Don't make the wrong one.
00:33:33You look beautiful.
00:34:01Hey.
00:34:01Is everything okay?
00:34:04Is it true?
00:34:05Is Aston just using me to get what he wants?
00:34:08Is he just using Emma?
00:34:10Dearly beloved,
00:34:11we are gathered here today
00:34:14to join this man and woman in holy matter.
00:34:16Marriage is powerful and way.
00:34:18It makes you feel lucky to be...
00:34:19Do you take Aston to be your lawfully wedded husband?
00:34:21Yes.
00:34:21Do you take Aston to be your lawfully wedded husband?
00:34:21Yes.
00:34:31I'm sorry.
00:34:32I can't marry you.
00:34:39I'm sorry.
00:34:40I can't marry you.
00:34:41I'm sorry.
00:34:42I can't marry you.
00:34:43What the hell was that about?
00:34:57Is this all fake, Aston?
00:35:00Every word you're telling me,
00:35:03every look you're giving me,
00:35:04is it all just some charade?
00:35:05Jesus.
00:35:07Is this necklace even real?
00:35:08God.
00:35:09I have meant every word I've said to you.
00:35:39None of this is a lie.
00:35:43And this necklace?
00:35:47My mother left it to me before she died.
00:35:49She said, uh,
00:35:51that I should only give it to someone I care about.
00:35:55Someone I saw a future with.
00:36:09I'm falling for you, Stella Evans.
00:36:17I have been since the moment we met.
00:36:19I don't know how I feel right now.
00:36:28Today's just been a lot,
00:36:29and my mind is all over the place.
00:36:33You're right.
00:36:35This wedding's way too much too soon.
00:36:38Stay here,
00:36:39and I'll tell everybody the wedding is off.
00:36:42Excellent.
00:36:52A runaway bride is an even bigger scandal than a love child.
00:37:03This must be a record, brother.
00:37:06Two fiancés down.
00:37:07At least this one made it to the altar.
00:37:11Hi, everyone.
00:37:12Sorry to keep you waiting, but
00:37:13there won't be...
00:37:15Any more interruptions?
00:37:19Who's ready for a wedding?
00:37:37Okay, let's try this again.
00:37:48Dearly beloved,
00:37:49we are gathered here today
00:37:51to join this man and this woman
00:37:53in holy matrimony.
00:37:55Marriage is powerful in ways you'd never expect.
00:37:58It's something that makes you feel lucky to be alive
00:38:00exactly when and where you are.
00:38:03It's choosing your partner
00:38:05at every moment of every day
00:38:07and of learning how to love
00:38:09even the darkest parts of another person.
00:38:12A true partner stays with you
00:38:14through thick and thin
00:38:15in sickness and in health
00:38:17for better or worse
00:38:18for richer or poorer
00:38:20and death do you part.
00:38:23Aston,
00:38:24do you take Stella to be your lawfully wedded wife?
00:38:27I do.
00:38:29And Stella,
00:38:30do you take this man
00:38:32to be your lawfully wedded husband?
00:38:33Do you take this man
00:38:44to be your lawfully wedded husband?
00:38:55I do.
00:38:57Good.
00:38:58You may kiss the bride now.
00:38:59I'd like to congratulate
00:39:13my eldest son
00:39:15on his marriage today
00:39:16and to announce
00:39:18that he's going to be
00:39:19taking over Montgomery Enterprises
00:39:21as my successor
00:39:22and CEO tomorrow.
00:39:24Oh, this is bullshit.
00:39:27CEO should be mine.
00:39:32This is your fault,
00:39:33you little bitch.
00:39:34What the fuck?
00:39:35I hope that hurt.
00:39:37Oh my god.
00:39:38Not as much as this girl.
00:39:40God, my baby!
00:39:43Not as much as this girl.
00:39:45God, my baby!
00:39:49What the hell?
00:39:50You ruined my suit!
00:39:51You touched my wife again.
00:39:52I will end you.
00:39:53Now get the hell out of my wedding.
00:39:54Baby!
00:40:01Baby!
00:40:02You're just going to
00:40:03stand there
00:40:04and let him do that?
00:40:06You're right.
00:40:07I should have stopped him
00:40:08before the slap.
00:40:09Let's get out of here
00:40:10before the bell
00:40:11starts to ruin our wedding day.
00:40:20Whoa.
00:40:22Are you okay?
00:40:24I'm fine.
00:40:27You barely got me.
00:40:32So,
00:40:33husband,
00:40:35what should we do next?
00:40:47I have wanted you
00:40:48since the moment we met.
00:40:51Mrs. Montgomery.
00:40:54Where are you going?
00:41:12If I don't leave now,
00:41:13I won't be able to stop myself
00:41:16from tearing you out of that dress.
00:41:19Except I wanted you to stop.
00:41:32This is the moment I met you.
00:41:34You have consumed my everything.
00:41:37I can't eat.
00:41:39I can't sleep.
00:41:40I can't work
00:41:41without thinking about you.
00:41:43without imagining this.
00:41:49Do you want me?
00:41:53More than anything.
00:42:02No!
00:42:02No!
00:42:02No!
00:42:03No!
00:42:03No!
00:42:04No!
00:42:04No!
00:42:05No!
00:42:05No!
00:42:06No!
00:42:06No.
00:42:06No!
00:42:07No!
00:42:08No!
00:42:08No!
00:42:09No!
00:42:09No!
00:42:09No!
00:42:10No!
00:42:10No!
00:42:11Stila, help!
00:42:29The baby's not breathing.
00:42:30I don't know what happened, one minute she was breathing and the next thing she-
00:42:41Thank god.
00:42:45Hey.
00:42:47Hey, it's okay.
00:42:48She's okay now, see?
00:42:50Hi.
00:42:52It's okay.
00:43:00That's the most terrified I've ever been in my life.
00:43:05That's because she's your baby girl and you love her.
00:43:10What if I can't do this on my own?
00:43:13What if I can't raise an entire human being?
00:43:18You can do this.
00:43:20Actually, you already are doing it.
00:43:23All you have to do is love her.
00:43:26That's more than my dad did for me.
00:43:30It's the private investigator.
00:43:37He might have information on who Emma's mom is.
00:43:55Mom.
00:43:56I wanted to let you know that I went through with the wedding.
00:43:58And I brought you a picture.
00:44:04And I even wore your dress.
00:44:07Stella.
00:44:09Oh, you're so beautiful.
00:44:14I'm so glad you found someone to take care of you after.
00:44:18Oh, my god.
00:44:18What are you talking about?
00:44:29What's this?
00:44:31A clinical trial?
00:44:33But it costs 10 million dollars?
00:44:35Something like that could save my mom.
00:44:38But how am I ever going to get that much money?
00:44:40There you are.
00:44:51Everything okay?
00:44:53Yep.
00:44:55What are you doing?
00:44:59I have to take a paternity test.
00:45:03I have to take a paternity test.
00:45:15I guess we'll know soon if I'm Emma's father.
00:45:19If?
00:45:21Well, they got the footage from the office the day Emma was dropped off.
00:45:24But the woman who was there, I don't recognize her.
00:45:31So you just forgot someone you slept with?
00:45:36That wasn't a good time in my life.
00:45:39I made a lot of bad decisions.
00:45:40But I've changed.
00:45:45You've changed me.
00:45:48Which is why I need you to come with me to the board meeting today.
00:45:53You keep me grounded.
00:45:56Of course I'll go with you.
00:46:03Today is about more than my retirement.
00:46:06It's about the future of Montgomery Enterprises.
00:46:09A future?
00:46:11That will be ripped to shreds if you allow your lying son to become CEO.
00:46:16What are you talking about?
00:46:21You.
00:46:22You're not the mother of his child.
00:46:28You're not the mother of his child.
00:46:31You're lying.
00:46:33They're both lying to all of you.
00:46:38Stella Evans.
00:46:39I don't know how much he's paying you, but it must be a lot.
00:46:50If this is true, son, you're an embarrassment to this family and this company.
00:47:07The board can't proceed with a vote.
00:47:14It's true.
00:47:16Stella was there to interview that day.
00:47:17Me.
00:47:18To see if I was up for the challenge to raising our daughter.
00:47:22But this isn't about my personal life.
00:47:25This is about what's best for Montgomery Enterprises going into the future.
00:47:29And since I've become COO, I have more than doubled our profits.
00:47:33And if that's not enough for you, then I don't know what is.
00:47:34It doesn't matter what you say.
00:47:41Mom already promised me the position of CEO would be mine.
00:47:45Enough.
00:47:48We will vote now.
00:47:51Is there a vote for Clive?
00:47:52And for Aston?
00:48:06It's a tie.
00:48:08So it all comes down to my father.
00:48:09And I have decided.
00:48:16The new CEO of Montgomery Enterprises is...
00:48:23The new CEO of Montgomery Enterprises is...
00:48:33Aston Montgomery.
00:48:34Oh, hell.
00:48:39What about me?
00:48:40I've looked at the financials.
00:48:42You've spent more time at the country club than in the boardroom.
00:48:46It's not my fault their Cobb salads are excellent.
00:48:51And the boardroom is boring.
00:48:56Come on.
00:48:59Congratulations, Aston.
00:49:01The new CEO of Montgomery Enterprises.
00:49:04But make me doubt anything else.
00:49:06And I'll rip everything away from you two, without hesitation.
00:49:23So what's your first act as CEO?
00:49:27I violate every page of the HR handbook.
00:49:29That's a good thing you never gave me that job.
00:49:31I need you.
00:49:38I need you.
00:49:38I need you.
00:49:40I need you.
00:49:51Kep.
00:49:52I need you.
00:49:53You take me higher than I've ever been.
00:49:56When I look into your eyes, I can't see what's happened.
00:50:00That's the moment.
00:50:24That's the moment.
00:50:30Just a minute.
00:50:41Aston, the board would like to see you.
00:50:44To go over some financials.
00:50:46Of course.
00:51:00Knock, knock!
00:51:04Clarissa, if you're here to bully me, I am not in the mood.
00:51:07That's not why I'm here. I'm here as a courtesy.
00:51:10You deserve the truth, and clearly Aston isn't going to give it to you.
00:51:18This baby isn't Clive's.
00:51:21It's Aston's.
00:51:30What the hell are you talking about? That baby cannot be Aston's.
00:51:33Well, we clearly couldn't tell you until the ruse was over.
00:51:36Until he became CEO.
00:51:38But now that it's all over, and Aston got what he wanted,
00:51:42we don't need you anymore.
00:51:46He doesn't need you anymore.
00:51:54What the hell are you talking about?
00:51:57Open Aston's desk drawer and find out.
00:52:00Oh my god. He signed the divorce papers.
00:52:15Clarissa's telling the truth.
00:52:25You can go now.
00:52:30Sweet, Emma.
00:52:37I'm gonna miss you so much.
00:52:43What's going on?
00:52:45I'm saying goodbye to Emma, and then I'm out of here.
00:52:49Just like you want me to be.
00:52:50Stella, why are you packing?
00:52:55Here. I signed up. You don't have to worry about me anymore.
00:53:00What are you talking about?
00:53:01Come on, Aston! You used me to get everything you wanted!
00:53:05I was a fool to think we could ever be together,
00:53:07that we could ever have a family together!
00:53:09Oh, and by the way, congratulations on the baby!
00:53:13I hope you and Clarissa are really happy together.
00:53:16Wait!
00:53:17Wait!
00:53:24Wait!
00:53:29Please, let me explain.
00:53:31What could you possibly have to say to me?
00:53:37There is nothing and will never be anything between me and Clarissa ever again.
00:53:42I'm not even the father of her child.
00:53:43And these, I had these drawn up the day I met you before.
00:53:46I knew this could be anything more than a contract.
00:53:48And this, just, just, just take it!
00:53:53Please, just take everything out.
00:53:54All I want is you and Emma, I could take or leave anything else.
00:53:59You don't mean that.
00:54:00Of course I mean it!
00:54:02I have meant every word I have said to you.
00:54:06I'm in, Stella, I'm all in!
00:54:09Are you?
00:54:15I'm in, Stella, I'm all in!
00:54:19Are you?
00:54:22Yeah, I'm all in!
00:54:29Yes!
00:54:37The paternity results are in.
00:54:41I'm not gonna miss father.
00:54:48I can't believe I'm not her father.
00:54:49If she doesn't belong to me, then...
00:54:50Why would that woman have shown up at my office and made me believe she was mine?
00:54:52The paternity results are in.
00:54:53The paternity results are in.
00:54:57I'm not Emma's father.
00:54:58I can't believe I'm not her father.
00:54:59If she doesn't belong to me, then...
00:55:00Why would that woman have shown up at my office and made me believe she was mine?
00:55:05I can't believe I'm not her father.
00:55:10If she doesn't belong to me, then...
00:55:13Why would that woman have shown up at my office and made me believe she was mine?
00:55:17I can't tell you why this is happening, Aston.
00:55:24But Emma's lucky to have you as a dad.
00:55:27Biological or not.
00:55:29We need to find the truth.
00:55:39Dahlia's behind it all.
00:55:45I'm not telling you anything.
00:55:47This isn't a game, Dahlia.
00:55:49She's a child.
00:55:50Where did Emma come from?
00:55:52Step down as CEO and I'll tell you.
00:55:54Are you kidding me?
00:55:55This is way bigger than a CEO position.
00:55:56This is a child's life you're messing with.
00:55:57Shut up.
00:55:58You little tramp.
00:55:59If you hadn't come along pretending to be her mother, the scandal would have proceeded as planned.
00:56:02And that little child would be back at the orphanage right where she belonged.
00:56:08Orphanage?
00:56:09Orphanage?
00:56:10That's right.
00:56:11The baby's trash.
00:56:12Just like you.
00:56:14My hair.
00:56:15You...
00:56:16You...
00:56:17And that little child would be back at the orphanage, right where she belonged.
00:56:22Orphanage?
00:56:24That's right.
00:56:25The baby's trash, just like you.
00:56:39My hair!
00:56:40You better get control of your little wife!
00:56:50Or nothing!
00:56:52You will not speak about my wife or my family that way.
00:56:55Get out.
00:56:56Call every orphanage in the city until you find one that's missing a baby.
00:57:21It's okay.
00:57:23It's okay.
00:57:24We're going to figure this out.
00:57:26Oh my God, did she just call me Mama?
00:57:31She's yours if you want her to be.
00:57:34I want to be, but until we figure out what's going on, I can't get attached.
00:57:43What did she do?
00:57:47Mr. Montgomery! Mr. Montgomery!
00:57:49Mr. Montgomery!
00:57:50What can you say about the recent allegations that Ms. Evans is not the mother of your son's
00:57:54child?
00:57:54Mr. Montgomery, you can't ignore us!
00:57:58Mr. Montgomery!
00:58:04What's going on?
00:58:06The press is having a field day out there.
00:58:08I told you to.
00:58:10No more scandals!
00:58:11What are you talking about?
00:58:12I went out on a limb for you, son.
00:58:15I trusted you.
00:58:16And this has been a lie the whole time?
00:58:19Mr. Montgomery!
00:58:19You say she's the mother of your child?
00:58:22Prove it!
00:58:23Or I'll expect you to step down as CEO tomorrow morning.
00:58:27How do we prove it?
00:58:33Simple.
00:58:35Take a maternity test.
00:58:42How do we prove it?
00:58:45Simple.
00:58:47Take a maternity test.
00:58:48Mr. Montgomery, you're not going away, Mr. Montgomery!
00:58:58You're not going away!
00:58:59Come on, now!
00:59:02Whoa, whoa, whoa!
00:59:04Okay.
00:59:04Aston, if I take a maternity test, they're going to know that Emma's not mine, and then
00:59:11we may lose her forever.
00:59:14No.
00:59:18We've been lying.
00:59:21If we find out, there's no way we can keep Emma.
00:59:23Mom!
00:59:32My mom is dying!
00:59:40My head is so warm.
00:59:43It's okay.
00:59:50It's okay.
00:59:52My heart was racing. I was so scared.
00:59:57It's okay.
01:00:01It's okay. It's all gonna be okay.
01:00:17Hey.
01:00:19My mom's getting worse.
01:00:23She needs this experimental treatment, but we can't afford it, so...
01:00:29Why didn't you tell me?
01:00:33I didn't want to be a burden to you.
01:00:35You can never be a burden.
01:00:38How much does the treatment cost?
01:00:45Ten million dollars.
01:00:47I'll pay it. Every penny.
01:00:52I'll pay it. Every penny.
01:00:59Aston...
01:01:01No, like I said.
01:01:03Money doesn't matter. I would do anything for you. Anything for our family.
01:01:06Thank you. You have no idea what this means to me.
01:01:12How do you always know just what to say to make me feel better?
01:01:15Because I know you. I know what you want. I know what you need. That's what happens to someone when you...
01:01:32When you...
01:01:37When you...
01:01:39When you what?
01:01:42When you love someone.
01:01:45And I love you, Stella Evans.
01:01:47And I love you, Stella Evans.
01:01:48You love me?
01:01:49I do.
01:01:50I can't believe it's taking me so long this time.
01:01:51Please tell me you feel the same.
01:01:53Please tell me you feel the same.
01:01:54I can't believe it's taking me so long this time.
01:01:56Please tell me you feel the same.
01:01:58I don't know what I'm feeling.
01:01:59I can't believe it's taking me so long this time.
01:02:03Don't you feel the same?
01:02:04No.
01:02:05Please tell me you feel the same.
01:02:07I can't believe it's taking me so long this time.
01:02:10I can't believe it's taking me so long the same.
01:02:18Please tell me you feel the same.
01:02:24I don't know what I'm feeling.
01:02:26It's all just... it's too much.
01:02:32I understand.
01:02:41Hi, I'd like to pay a bill for Mary Evans.
01:02:46It has?
01:02:49By who?
01:02:53I see.
01:03:10A year ago, I gave up my baby girl.
01:03:20I had no choice, and it broke my heart.
01:03:23The chances are almost impossible, but I have to know.
01:03:27Could Emma be my daughter?
01:03:40Well, I'd like to schedule a maternity test.
01:03:54Hey, Stella, do you...
01:03:57Everything okay?
01:03:58Fine.
01:04:00I don't know.
01:04:05You seem... off.
01:04:12I'm fine.
01:04:13I just...
01:04:15I have a lot on my mind.
01:04:18I just can't stop thinking about Emma's mother and how our lives could come crashing down over some maternity test.
01:04:25But then don't take it.
01:04:26What?
01:04:28No, I can't ask you to do that. That's not fair to you.
01:04:33Don't worry about what's fair to...
01:04:35It's all I'm worried about.
01:04:37You mean more to me than this CEO position.
01:04:40He's trying to help, but...
01:04:43If Emma's somehow mine, I can save Aston's job and his reputation.
01:04:48Just...
01:04:50Don't do anything rash, okay?
01:04:51We still have until tomorrow to figure it out.
01:04:59I need to ask...
01:05:01Does the name Andrew Beaumont mean anything to you?
01:05:06No.
01:05:08Should it?
01:05:10Well...
01:05:11He...
01:05:12He paid for your mother's treatment.
01:05:14All...
01:05:15Ten million.
01:05:16He paid for your treatment.
01:05:17Who is he?
01:05:18He paid for your treatment.
01:05:19Who is he?
01:05:20He paid for your treatment.
01:05:21Who is he?
01:05:22Mom?
01:05:25Mom?
01:05:26Mom?
01:05:28Mom?
01:05:30Who is Andrew Beaumont?
01:05:33How...
01:05:35How do you know about him?
01:05:37He paid for your treatment.
01:05:39Who is he?
01:05:45Mom.....
01:05:46Mom....
01:05:48Mom...
01:05:50Mom! Someone call the doctor!
01:06:11I spoke with the doctors.
01:06:15She's been put in a medically induced coma until the swelling in her brain subsides.
01:06:21It's all my fault if I wouldn't push her.
01:06:24No, Estella. It is not your fault.
01:06:28I know. I know. And I know she's sick. I just wish there was something I could do.
01:06:33She's with the doctors now.
01:06:35She's getting the treatment she needs.
01:06:38It'll all be fine.
01:06:40No matter how much you keep blaming yourself.
01:06:44I'll say it again.
01:06:46It's not your fault.
01:06:50It's not your fault.
01:06:52Okay, Emma, time to learn the truth.
01:07:22In breaking news, CEO Aston Montgomery has called a last-minute press conference to address
01:07:33the future of Montgomery Enterprises.
01:07:36Reporters have it on good authority that he is prepared to step down as CEO, handing
01:07:40the company over to his half-brother, Clive Montgomery, in the wake of a paternity scandal.
01:07:52Oh, my God.
01:08:03I can save him.
01:08:07Mr. Montgomery, you do understand that not forcing your wife to take a maternity test
01:08:22is an admission of guilt, right?
01:08:24Which means you've been lying to everyone.
01:08:28Wait!
01:08:29We're not lying.
01:08:31I took the test.
01:08:33I have the results right here.
01:08:39I have the results right here.
01:08:40Over here, ma'am.
01:08:41Over here, ma'am.
01:08:42Ma'am.
01:08:43They've been fighting a long time.
01:08:44Hey!
01:08:45You know how much I'm willing to pay for those?
01:08:47Not enough.
01:08:48Trust me.
01:08:49Over here, ma'am.
01:08:51Ma'am.
01:08:52They've been fighting a long time.
01:08:53Do you understand what you're talking about?
01:08:55How long has this happened?
01:08:57You took the maternity test.
01:08:58Why?
01:08:59Aston, there's something I need to tell you.
01:09:01Show us the results, sweetheart.
01:09:03Prove your husband's not lying.
01:09:06I don't owe anyone proof.
01:09:09Believe me or don't.
01:09:10But I am Emma's mother.
01:09:12I believe you.
01:09:14Don't even think about it, Dahlia.
01:09:17This is so sweet.
01:09:28If only it mattered.
01:09:31You're too late, Stella.
01:09:33Aston already stepped down.
01:09:43You already stepped down?
01:09:45Yes.
01:09:46To protect you.
01:09:47To protect Emma.
01:09:48Aston, you were fine.
01:09:49All you've ever wanted to do is be seen.
01:09:51To be a great husband to you and a great father to Emma.
01:09:55That's all that matters to me.
01:09:57We can figure out the rest.
01:09:58It looks like you're working for me now, brother.
01:10:03I own the company now.
01:10:05Which means I own you.
01:10:09Not quite.
01:10:11I just received an offer from Montgomery Enterprises.
01:10:15One that I couldn't refuse.
01:10:18Meet our buyer.
01:10:21Andrew Beaumont.
01:10:24Stella's father.
01:10:30Stella?
01:10:31You look just like your mother.
01:10:40This is ridiculous.
01:10:45You're trying to tell me that Stella's related to a billionaire?
01:10:49Ha!
01:10:50She's nothing but a piece of trash.
01:10:52Don't.
01:10:53Speak about my daughter that way.
01:10:56Your daughter?
01:10:57How dare you call me that?
01:10:59You left mom and I.
01:11:01No.
01:11:02Stella, I never left you.
01:11:04Your mother, she kicked me out.
01:11:08Because I wasn't the husband or the father that I needed to be.
01:11:13But I'm here now to make it up to you.
01:11:18This company belongs to me, not this low-class peasant bitch.
01:11:23No!
01:11:24My baby!
01:11:25Damn!
01:11:26That felt good.
01:11:27Get out of my office or I'll have you arrested for assault.
01:11:32Actually, the office belongs to my daughter now.
01:11:37As does the company.
01:11:40What?
01:11:47I'm the CEO of Montgomery Enterprises?
01:11:56I'm the CEO of Montgomery Enterprises?
01:12:04Oh, yes.
01:12:05Which means you get to decide how we get rid of Clive.
01:12:10You're nothing more than a spoiled little rich kid who thinks the world is out to get him.
01:12:15You never deserved this company.
01:12:17So fuck off.
01:12:19I...
01:12:21Mother!
01:12:23You'll let her talk to me that way?!
01:12:26Dahlia's words have no power.
01:12:28Not anymore.
01:12:34This...
01:12:38can't be happening.
01:12:41I planned everything perfectly.
01:12:45That little orphan would have made the perfect scandal if not for Stella interfering.
01:12:51And you!
01:12:53You were supposed to convince that little bitch that you were pregnant with Aston's baby.
01:12:57But no!
01:13:00You failed!
01:13:01And fucked us all!
01:13:03I...
01:13:04I didn't!
01:13:05I did...
01:13:06Hey!
01:13:07Hey!
01:13:08Hey!
01:13:09Clive!
01:13:10Clarissa!
01:13:11Get the hell out of my office!
01:13:12You too, Dahlia!
01:13:13Get out!
01:13:14You can't kick me out.
01:13:15I'm Robert's wife.
01:13:17Not anymore.
01:13:18I want a divorce.
01:13:19I want a divorce.
01:13:22What?!
01:13:23What?!
01:13:24This is not...
01:13:25I...
01:13:26Do you have any...
01:13:27I always thought she looked just like you when she was sleeping.
01:13:40I never thought I'd see her again.
01:13:49I never wanted to give her up, but...
01:13:52When mom got sick and...
01:13:55The medical bills, I just...
01:13:58I knew we couldn't afford it.
01:13:59It's all in the past.
01:14:05But I want to talk about her future.
01:14:11How would you feel...
01:14:13About one more?
01:14:18I could be persuaded.
01:14:21Then let me persuade you.
01:14:29So...
01:14:48What's your...
01:14:50First order of business as CEO?
01:14:53Well...
01:14:54Since I've already violated the employee handbook...
01:14:57Twice.
01:15:00I was thinking we could talk business.
01:15:06No one knows more about Montgomery Enterprises than you.
01:15:11I was...
01:15:13Hoping you might show me the ropes.
01:15:15I'd be happy to.
01:15:21Let's violate the handbook one more time.
01:15:23I'm sorry.
01:15:24I have a words.
01:15:25I'm sorry.
01:15:26You're all right.
01:15:27I'm not forgetting myles.
01:15:29I'm laughing about my mind.
01:15:33For the sunrise, yeah.
01:15:35And when it's finally time.
01:15:38You're just more of the same.
01:15:41Gotta wrestle the day.
01:15:43Said it a thousand times.
01:15:45Thousand times
01:16:15I'm pregnant
01:16:27Hey, the mother and I were just catching up. I
01:16:34Still can't believe this
01:16:38Forgive me for not telling you about your father sooner when I got sick. I decided to write him
01:16:46Forgiving him
01:16:49I never thought you would
01:16:53And
01:16:56I hope you can forgive me too
01:17:03You saved me and my family. Of course, I'll forgive you
01:17:11You know speaking of family
01:17:15I'd really like to meet my grandbaby
01:17:22Which one?
01:17:26Me
01:17:29Stella
01:17:30Stella
01:17:35Aston your assistant called and said it was an emergency
01:17:40Stella Evans?

01:18:21It is
01:18:23And you're the only person who's ever been worthy of it
01:18:27Stella Evans, ever since you stepped into my office, you have changed the course of my life
