Surrogate For My Ex's Billionaire Uncle
Transcript
00:00:00Surrogacy? What's surrogacy?
00:00:02Harvard Business School. MBA. Top of class.
00:00:06As for intimate matters, I can assure you performance has never been an issue.
00:00:15Three years I've loved him. Everyone tells me Ethan will never change.
00:00:20But they don't see the real Ethan. I know he loves me.
00:00:30Oh my god! Three years I've wasted on you!
00:00:37I'm not gonna let you take this from me too.
00:00:39I don't need a man to make my dreams come true.
00:00:42One appointment, one sperm donor, I can have a baby of my own.
00:00:49Understand this clearly. We'll be parents, nothing more.
00:00:53Surrogacy. Five generations of Crawford dignity destroyed by tabloid gossip.
00:01:06Adrian, I can make all of this disappear.
00:01:10Perfect couple, right? Until...
00:01:13Dun-dun-dun-dun-dun.
00:01:14All you have to do is remember who you really belong.
00:01:17That's for every lie you just told.
00:01:21Your fault! You have to build a plan to get rid of him.
00:01:26Get up!
00:01:35Three years. Three years I've loved him.
00:01:39Everyone tells me Ethan will never change.
00:01:41That a man like him only loves himself.
00:01:43But they don't see the real Ethan.
00:01:48I know he loves me.
00:01:51Thank you so much.
00:01:53I really, really appreciate it.
00:01:56Tonight, it will be our big night.
00:01:58And I'll give him all of me.
00:02:01We'll make a beautiful baby together.
00:02:03A family of our own.
00:02:05I'm so sorry.
00:02:19I'm so sorry.
00:02:19I'm so sorry.
00:02:49Oh, my God.
00:03:19Oh, my God.
00:03:36Voila, you're early.
00:03:39Why so shocked, babe?
00:03:41You're always talking about wanting to try new things.
00:03:44Hmm?
00:03:47Come and join us.
00:03:49Three years.
00:03:54Three years.
00:03:55I wasted on you.
00:03:58God, I'm such an idiot.
00:04:01I was thinking I was going to have a baby with you.
00:04:05Baby?
00:04:07Sweetheart.
00:04:08You wouldn't even put out after three years,
00:04:10and now you're thinking about playing mommy.
00:04:13Though, if you're finally ready to spread those legs,
00:04:18these lovely ladies can show you how it's done.
00:04:23Screw you.
00:04:25I'm not going to let you take this from me, too.
00:04:42You know what?
00:04:43I don't need a man to make my dreams come true.
00:04:46One appointment?
00:04:47I don't need a man.
00:04:50One appointment?
00:04:52One sperm donor?
00:04:53Well, I can have a baby of my own.
00:05:03Six months to produce an heir,
00:05:05or I lose control of Crawford Industries to my nephew.
00:05:09Everything I've built over the last decade, gone.
00:05:12The surrogate candidates are all thoroughbreds,
00:05:16so I believe you're educated.
00:05:18Impeccable health histories.
00:05:19I don't need their resumes, Thompson.
00:05:21I need someone who won't turn this into a media circus.
00:05:24Find me someone who knows your place,
00:05:26and will disappear after delivery.
00:05:28Come on.
00:05:39Come on.
00:05:40Hold me.
00:05:45All right.
00:05:48Oh, car!
00:05:51No!
00:05:51Miss, are you here for the interview?
00:06:15The interview?
00:06:17Yes, of course.
00:06:21Please sit.
00:06:28Right, um, let's get started.
00:06:37Hey, um, education background.
00:06:42Excuse me?
00:06:43And I'm gonna need a full medical history, specifically genetic disorders, to work out.
00:06:50Do you work out?
00:06:51I mean, you look acceptable.
00:06:57Do you have any idea who I am?
00:07:04I'm just trying to be thorough.
00:07:07It's about creating a healthy baby after all.
00:07:11Why are attractive men so full of themselves?
00:07:15I don't care if you're Brad Pitt.
00:07:19I need to know your reproductive history.
00:07:22So?
00:07:23Sexual partners in the last six months?
00:07:26Mr. Crofton, I can show her out.
00:07:29Thompson, leave us.
00:07:35What are you doing?
00:07:36Making sure this interview is more thorough.
00:07:43Harvard Business School.
00:07:48MBA.
00:07:49Top of class.
00:07:51No family history.
00:07:52No family history of genetic disorders.
00:07:53I work you out five times a week.
00:07:56As for intimate matters, I can assure you performance has never been an issue.
00:08:07Now Thompson is gone, are you comfortable to share yours?
00:08:10Yes.
00:08:11Of course.
00:08:12I'm perfectly healthy too, no genetic disorders, and I get regular checkups.
00:08:22I've even been taking prenatal vitamins.
00:08:25You really do seem like the perfect match.
00:08:30Good.
00:08:31Now, regarding compensation, what figure did you have in mind?
00:08:38Well, I was thinking around $800.
00:08:43$800.
00:08:44I expected the fee to be significantly higher.
00:08:50I know, I know it's not a lot of money, but considering the quality, I could, I can help,
00:08:57I can do paperwork, whatever.
00:08:59Talk to me.
00:09:00Bring in the contracts.
00:09:10All of this?
00:09:11Seriously?
00:09:13Take your time to review, but the key point is after birth, the child stays with me.
00:09:19No contact.
00:09:22You want to keep my baby?
00:09:24Are you insane?
00:09:29That's standard procedure for surrogacy arrangements.
00:09:34Surrogacy?
00:09:35Surrogacy.
00:09:36The position you're interviewing for.
00:09:38Interview?
00:09:39I'm hated by sperm.
00:09:42You came to what?
00:09:44I thought you were a donor.
00:09:45That's why I was asking you all the questions about the history and stuff.
00:09:50I thought you were here to be my surrogate.
00:09:52Right.
00:09:53Um, well, I guess, I guess I've, um, made a mistake, so I'm just gonna go.
00:09:59Wait!
00:10:03A million dollars.
00:10:05For carrying my child.
00:10:06I want my own baby, Mr. Crawford, not somebody else's.
00:10:14Ah.
00:10:16You might need that.
00:10:24Clean this up.
00:10:26Bring in the next.
00:10:27Hello?
00:10:28Miss Reed.
00:10:29Your father.
00:10:30You need to come now.
00:10:31Okay.
00:10:32I'm coming.
00:10:33I'm coming.
00:10:34Hello?
00:10:35Miss Reed.
00:10:36Your father.
00:10:37You need to come now.
00:10:39Okay, I'm coming.
00:10:57Doctor, how is he?
00:10:58How is my father?
00:11:00The cancer is spread aggressively without immediate treatment.
00:11:03Then do something.
00:11:05Save him.
00:11:07Is there a treatment you can do?
00:11:09There is a new treatment.
00:11:11Okay, then let's do it.
00:11:12But maybe it's quite expensive.
00:11:14How much?
00:11:15Around one million dollars.
00:11:17A million dollars?
00:11:18Yes.
00:11:20Can I get a loan?
00:11:22Can I get a loan?
00:11:24Yes.
00:11:25Can I get a loan or something?
00:11:28Actually, this is a new technology.
00:11:30And there is no loan policy.
00:11:31Sorry.
00:11:55No.
00:11:56No.
00:11:57No.
00:11:59No.
00:12:01No.
00:12:02This is the last batch.
00:12:05Yes, sir.
00:12:06The blonde wants to know about ring sizes.
00:12:09And brunette asks about moving in.
00:12:11And the redwear…
00:12:12Yes, sir.
00:12:14The blonde wants to know about ring sizes.
00:12:15The blonde wanted to know about ring sizes, and brunette asked about moving in, and the redhead...
00:12:25All of them want the Crawford name.
00:12:28No one's qualified.
00:12:31She was refreshing.
00:12:34No pretense.
00:12:35No schemes.
00:12:37But she wasn't even here for surrogacy.
00:12:40Sometimes the best candidate isn't looking for the job.
00:12:45Hello.
00:12:57I'm the Reed. I'm Adrian Crawford.
00:13:09I've been thinking.
00:13:11I've been thinking.
00:13:13About yesterday, I may have been a bit hasty.
00:13:17You're reconsidering.
00:13:19Don't sound so smug about it. I have my reasons.
00:13:22As do I.
00:13:25I'd like to propose a modification to the original terms.
00:13:31What kind of modification?
00:13:33Joint custody.
00:13:34You wouldn't be just carrying the child. You'd be the baby's mother.
00:13:38Why would you agree to that?
00:13:39You're honest. Direct.
00:13:42No hidden agenda.
00:13:45Qualities I want in my child's mother.
00:13:47So I'd really get to be a part of the baby's life?
00:13:49Yes, but understand this clearly.
00:13:52We'll be parents. Nothing more.
00:13:55No romantic entanglements. No emotional expectations.
00:14:02Don't flutter yourself.
00:14:04God, rich men and their egos.
00:14:10Father.
00:14:11The board is getting impatient.
00:14:14Have you considered the arrangements I suggested?
00:14:17I've already made my own plans.
00:14:19Adrian, if you're thinking of using some random surrogate to produce an heir, forget it.
00:14:27The Crawford name means something.
00:14:29I won't let it be tainted by...
00:14:31I've already chosen my fiancée.
00:14:33What?
00:14:34We'll discuss this at dinner.
00:14:37Did I just get promoted from surrogate to fiancée?
00:14:41Correct me if I'm wrong, but didn't you just say, just parents, nothing more?
00:14:53The situation requires adaptation.
00:14:57Hmm, is that CEO talk for I changed my mind?
00:15:01If we need a convincing story, you'll be staying at my house during the pregnancy.
00:15:05And after the baby comes?
00:15:07We'll arrange for an amicable separation, continue parenting, and I'll arrange for any additional compensation for the complexity.
00:15:15The original amount is fine, but I am going to need it soon.
00:15:21Welcome to the family, Ms. Reed.
00:15:43Wow.
00:15:45I think my whole apartment could fit in this entryway.
00:15:51Well, well, well.
00:16:00Missed me so much, you tracked me down.
00:16:07Can't get over me, huh?
00:16:11Following me here like a lost puppy?
00:16:13Following you?
00:16:14Why would I...
00:16:15What are you doing here?
00:16:17Sweetheart, this is my family's house.
00:16:20I'm sure you know that.
00:16:22Hmm, you never let me have sex with you.
00:16:25But look at you now, sneaking into my house.
00:16:29Finally realize what you're missing, baby?
00:16:31Get your hands off me, you creep!
00:16:34Playing hard to get used to be cute, but now?
00:16:37Come on, baby.
00:16:39We both know this is what you came here for.
00:16:42Uncle, what are you doing?
00:16:44Get your filthy hands off my fiancé.
00:16:47You're, you're, what?
00:16:51Fiancé?
00:16:54Fiancé?
00:16:55How could she be your fiancé?
00:16:56She's just...
00:16:57Watch your mouth.
00:16:59Show some respect to your future aunt.
00:17:03This is crazy.
00:17:05You seriously don't know.
00:17:06I won't repeat myself.
00:17:08Stay away from my fiancé.
00:17:10One more word?
00:17:12You can kiss that trust fund.
00:17:14Goodbye.
00:17:14You all right?
00:17:32Yeah, so, Ethan.
00:17:36He's your nephew.
00:17:39Then he's your...
00:17:41Well, he was, he's kinda...
00:17:44He was my boyfriend.
00:17:46I mean, ex-boyfriend.
00:17:47I mean, like, extremely ex-ex-boyfriend.
00:17:51I see.
00:17:54Tom, so we'll bring your things in shortly.
00:17:55Um, so, where am I staying?
00:18:06Here.
00:18:08What?
00:18:09Unless you prefer explaining to the staff why the happy couple sleep in separate rooms.
00:18:14Oh, of course.
00:18:16Fake engagement.
00:18:17Real roommates.
00:18:21Don't worry.
00:18:22I'll be a perfect gentleman.
00:18:25What are you doing?
00:18:51This is the line.
00:18:53Don't cross it.
00:18:55Ever.
00:18:55For sure.
00:18:59Good.
00:19:16My plan worked perfectly.
00:19:21Wait.
00:19:22How did I...
00:19:23Sir, are you okay?
00:19:35Fine.
00:19:37Continue.
00:19:37Continue.
00:19:46Stay on your side.
00:19:47Lila, wake up.
00:19:59Lila, please.
00:20:01Please.
00:20:01What?
00:20:01What?
00:20:01Control.
00:20:14Control.
00:20:23Control.
00:20:23Sorry, didn't see you there.
00:20:45You're always in the way.
00:20:49Ah, my brother's mysterious fiancé.
00:20:53Mrs. Crawford.
00:20:55Catherine, please. We're family now, supposedly.
00:21:00Helen, tea, please.
00:21:02Yes, Mrs. Crawford?
00:21:06So tell me, dear, how did you and Adrian meet exactly?
00:21:11Through mutual friends.
00:21:15Oh, really? Mutual friends.
00:21:17Dear, what friend of Adrian's would possibly move in your social circles?
00:21:26Unless this is more of a business arrangement.
00:21:30I'm sorry?
00:21:31Well, a girl of your position, surely some negotiation was involved.
00:21:37The only negotiation was whether I would take his last name or keep my own.
00:21:50Next weekend is our family dinner, and as Adrian's fiancé, your presence is required.
00:21:58I'd be honored.
00:21:59Hmm, perfect. I'm sure you can find something more appropriate to wear.
00:22:08You can go now.
00:22:21Excuse me, Miss Rie. I need to clean.
00:22:23Of course. Let me just move this.
00:22:30Is this what you're wearing to the family dinner?
00:22:34How creative.
00:22:36Must be hot in your family.
00:22:38Watching you chase after rich men.
00:22:41Let me help you with this.
00:22:43My dress!
00:22:45How clumsy of me.
00:22:47You did that on purpose.
00:22:48Do you think you can really marry Mr. Crawford?
00:22:52You're just trash trying to climb the social ladder.
00:22:58Mr. Crawford!
00:23:00She just attacked me!
00:23:04I was trying to help with the...
00:23:05Get out!
00:23:06But I was just...
00:23:07One more word and you're fired.
00:23:11Get out!
00:23:11Get out!
00:23:18What happened?
00:23:20Nothing.
00:23:21I need some space.
00:23:23I want to stay in the guest room tonight.
00:23:24Lila, you don't have to do that.
00:23:26I need some space.
00:23:30You take the bed.
00:23:31I'll take the sofa.
00:23:33I miss you so much, Daddy.
00:23:36Don't worry about me, okay?
00:23:38As long as we can get you better,
00:23:40I won't let their words get to me.
00:23:42I promise.
00:23:44Lila, what happened?
00:23:46What should I do?
00:23:47How's the happy couple?
00:24:10Oh, that's awkward.
00:24:15Just a small thing.
00:24:16Um, that is not a small pinch.
00:24:19It's okay.
00:24:20I'm here.
00:24:22You're safe.
00:24:25Perfect timing for the injection.
00:24:27Is�를.
00:24:30I don't know.
00:24:31I don't know.
00:24:34I want you.
00:24:35I want you.
00:24:35I don't know.
00:24:36I don't know.
00:24:37I don't know.
00:24:40Is�를.
00:24:41I don't know.
00:25:11Focus. This is just a simple medical procedure. Just pretend she's not right outside.
00:25:23Mr. Crawford, is everything okay in there?
00:25:26Um, yeah, I'm fine. I just need some assistance.
00:25:31Oh, do you need my help?
00:25:33No, I didn't mean...
00:25:35Are you sure? Honestly, it's fine. I can come in if you need me to.
00:25:40Come in.
00:25:41So, you want to help?
00:25:52Of course. What do you need me to...
00:25:56Oh, you're...
00:26:01Oh, you're...
00:26:02I'm... I'm so sorry. I didn't... I didn't realize. I'm just... I'm just gonna just go somewhere. I just need you. Somewhere very far away.
00:26:11It's fine.
00:26:12Well, that was helpful.
00:26:21Are you okay?
00:26:23Yeah.
00:26:24Dr. Anderson said that the hormone shocks would hurt, but it's...
00:26:27It's causing you pain.
00:26:28Yeah, it's... It's a little uncomfortable, but I mean, it will... It will pass.
00:26:34Oh.
00:26:34Here.
00:26:37Oh. Okay.
00:26:38Thanks.
00:26:49Well, the hormone shocks were a part of the agreement, and any resulting pain is technically a work-related issue.
00:27:01And as your employer, I have a duty of care.
00:27:06Okay.
00:27:07Purely professional care.
00:27:34Purely professional, huh?
00:27:46Mm-hmm.
00:27:54Adrienne.
00:27:55Um, about this weekend...
00:27:59I'm sorry. There's an emergency in Atlanta. The merge is falling apart.
00:28:04Thompson, get the jet ready in 20.
00:28:07Your family invited me to dinner. Guess I'll handle it on my own.
00:28:11Well, I don't suppose we should expect punctuality from a person who's probably never had a proper watch in her life.
00:28:22I introduce him to the Lawson Harris, the senator's daughter.
00:28:27I don't understand why he picked this gold digger from God knows where.
00:28:31What did you say she did, Ethan? Retail?
00:28:35Worse. A wannabe writer. She probably thought that landing a Crawford would be her best-selling story.
00:28:41Hm.
00:28:43Well, I have tried to be welcoming. I had the chef prepare her place setting and everything.
00:28:50She probably couldn't figure out which work to do, though.
00:28:54Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha.
00:28:58Ah, ah.
00:28:59I apologize for the slight delay.
00:29:11My, my. Trying so hard to look the part.
00:29:16James, do make sure none of the silver goes missing after dinner.
00:29:21I suppose Adrian's credit card is getting some good use.
00:29:24And although money can buy designer clothes, it can't buy breeding.
00:29:28Actually, I made this dress myself.
00:29:31Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha.
00:29:35Oh, darling, whew, a seamstress for a daughter-in-law?
00:29:40How quaint.
00:29:41Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha.
00:29:43At least we know who's going to be mending Adrian's socks.
00:29:46Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha.
00:29:48I may not have been born into privilege, but I was raised with something much more valuable.
00:29:54Integrity.
00:29:56Integrity.
00:29:56Is that what you call seducing your way into our family?
00:30:02How much, how much will it take you to disappear in your price?
00:30:08The difference between you and I, Mr. Crawford, is that I don't think that everything comes with a price tag.
00:30:19Excuse me.
00:30:20Stay calm.
00:30:32You can do this.
00:30:33Getting all dressed up for me, baby.
00:30:37Getting all dressed up for me.
00:30:40Baby.
00:30:41I don't think that everything comes with a lot of people.
00:30:46I don't think that everything comes with a lot of people.
00:30:47I don't think that everything comes with a lot of people.
00:30:48What's the rush?
00:30:49We're all family here.
00:30:51Well, almost family.
00:30:53Don't touch me.
00:30:55You used to like it when I touched you.
00:30:58Remember how shy you were?
00:31:00Always saying no.
00:31:02Runs off me, bastard!
00:31:04Careful now.
00:31:06One scream from you and everyone at dinner is going to know what kind of girl you really are.
00:31:11Now, where were we?
00:31:22Everything alright, dear?
00:31:23You look flushed.
00:31:25So, as I was saying about...
00:31:28Stop it!
00:31:33Something wrong, Miss Reed?
00:31:36Stop it!
00:31:38Enough!
00:31:41No class?
00:31:42No manners?
00:31:44I don't know how you seduced my son,
00:31:47but someone like you could never deserve a place in this family.
00:31:51I...
00:31:52I'm the one who sued her.
00:32:00Who convinced her to give me a chance.
00:32:02Adrian.
00:32:06If anyone's unworthy in this relationship, it's me.
00:32:09You want to know how we met?
00:32:11She crashed into my life, quite literally.
00:32:13Papers flying, coffee spilled.
00:32:15Unlike some people, she didn't care about my name or my money.
00:32:19She, uh, refused me several times.
00:32:23Called me too arrogant, too controlling.
00:32:26First woman who dared to stand out to me.
00:32:28And that's when I knew I had to have her.
00:32:30Sir, two things.
00:32:37Your sister has invited Miss Reed to tonight's family dinner.
00:32:40And your jet is ready.
00:32:41You can go now.
00:32:42Cancel it, Lance.
00:32:44What's the merger?
00:32:46Yes, sir.
00:32:47It's funny, but last week family dinner's were the most pointless waste of time in existence.
00:33:00Oh, what a touching story, Uncle.
00:33:11Too bad it's either a complete lie or she's been playing us both.
00:33:17What are you talking about?
00:33:20We've been dating for three years.
00:33:22I have pictures of us together.
00:33:25What?
00:33:31She probably planned this from the start.
00:33:33Dating me to get close to the family, then setting her sights higher.
00:33:38You manipulative little trick.
00:33:40Face it, Uncle.
00:33:41You're just another rung on her ladder to the top.
00:33:47Face it, Uncle.
00:33:48You're just another rung on her ladder to the top.
00:33:56That's for every lie you've just told.
00:34:01Adrian!
00:34:02How dare you hit my son!
00:34:04Where do you think you're going?
00:34:05We are not the finish here yet!
00:34:06Yes, we are!
00:34:12I'm sorry, I shouldn't have left you alone with that.
00:34:14Thank you for coming back and for making up such a beautiful story about us.
00:34:24Your hands, what happened?
00:34:25As my fiancée, you have access to the family accounts.
00:34:44I expect you to use them.
00:34:46I didn't want to presume.
00:34:48You're a Crawford now.
00:34:50Dr. Anderson.
00:35:02Mr. Crawford.
00:35:03The embryos are ready.
00:35:04So we can proceed with the implantation tomorrow morning.
00:35:08I see.
00:35:10What is it?
00:35:11Is something wrong with the embryos?
00:35:12I've been thinking.
00:35:13Perhaps we should approach this man.
00:35:15I don't know.
00:35:16I don't know.
00:35:17I don't know.
00:35:18I don't know.
00:35:19Approach this matter in a more natural manner between a husband and a wife.
00:35:29What are your thoughts?
00:35:33I think that we should go to bed.
00:35:36We have a really big day tomorrow.
00:35:39So, let me know.
00:35:43Good night.
00:35:44You know, you look like a giant polar bear in that outfit.
00:35:54Focus on the procedure.
00:35:57Try to relax, Mrs. Crawford.
00:36:02There.
00:36:07See that white spot?
00:36:08That's our baby.
00:36:13You know, I can walk.
00:36:19Doctor's orders?
00:36:20You seem more nervous than I do.
00:36:26I'm merely following medical procedure.
00:36:38Look at her.
00:36:40She's acting like a princess.
00:36:43She was probably a waitress last week.
00:36:48Now she's got Mr. Crawford wrapped around her finger.
00:36:52She's acting like a shadow.
00:36:54He...
00:36:55The boy is acting like a bird.
00:36:57I couldn't find one of the people that she's trying to film.
00:36:59Go, go, go.
00:37:00It's your birthday.
00:37:02And you're like, girl, you're ready to do.
00:37:03It's your birthday.
00:37:04I believe she's eating.
00:37:05You're welcome.
00:37:07It's your birthday party.
00:37:08I got stuck.
00:37:09I got stuck.
00:37:10I got stuck.
00:37:11You're welcome.
00:37:12I'm getting stuck.
00:37:13I'm watching her birthday.
00:37:14Adrian!
00:37:27Not quite.
00:37:29Looking a bit unstable there, baby.
00:37:31The Gorky!
00:37:32Come on, you used to love being in my arms.
00:37:36Remember how we would spend hours at the cafe?
00:37:39You would lean into me while reading your favorite book?
00:37:42Did she?
00:37:44Adrian!
00:37:47I was just getting food, I swear.
00:37:52Get out!
00:37:58My stomach.
00:37:59Lila, what's wrong?
00:38:00My stomach, I think that there's something wrong.
00:38:03If anything, anything happens to my fiancé or child, I can't guarantee what I'll do.
00:38:09And you, what you want, you'll never have.
00:38:15Never.
00:38:21Child.
00:38:22Three years, she wouldn't let me touch her.
00:38:25And a few weeks, with my uncle, and she's carrying his child.
00:38:30You want the perfect family.
00:38:33Well, it's not gonna happen.
00:38:36Thompson, clear my schedule.
00:38:49Everything over the next month goes to Jack.
00:38:51Sir, what happened?
00:38:52Do you need my help?
00:38:54You can't help on this one.
00:38:55Just do what I say.
00:38:59You and Ethan, you've never really gotten along, have you?
00:39:03You seem very concerned about him.
00:39:16I, I just...
00:39:17Just get some rest.
00:39:18It's been a rough day for you.
00:39:19Adrian, why did you choose to believe me just now?
00:39:22No reason.
00:39:25I just know you're not like that.
00:39:27Thanks.
00:39:29Get some rest.
00:39:31Do whatever makes you comfortable.
00:39:32Anything at all, I'll be around.
00:39:35Anything I want?
00:39:36Are you sure about that?
00:39:38What are you doing?
00:40:07This.
00:40:08Isn't it delicious?
00:40:09The baby wants chocolate.
00:40:12The baby wants chocolate.
00:40:13Yeah.
00:40:14And chips and ice cream.
00:40:17You wouldn't want to deny your child, would you?
00:40:21I've been researching optimal pregnancy nutrition.
00:40:24See, week by week, guidelines.
00:40:27Okay, okay, okay.
00:40:28How about a compromise?
00:40:30One treat per day.

00:48:55Worried about me or worried about the baby?
00:49:01What do you mean?
00:49:03Is this why you're being so nice to me?
00:49:06Making me breakfast, being all protective
00:49:10It's just for the baby?
00:49:13Lila, you've been so strange since yesterday, why?
00:49:18Was Vivian your girlfriend?
00:49:25Yes
00:49:33And then she got with Ethan?
00:49:37Yes
00:49:39Okay, so I'm just-
00:49:41Vivian and I were-
00:49:47Sir, the Singapore Marjorie is falling apart
00:49:49We need to immediately
00:49:51I'm in the middle of summer
00:49:53The board is threatening to pull out
00:49:55I'll be there
00:49:57We need to finish this conversation as soon as I get back
00:50:06Of course, business first
00:50:08Lila
00:50:14Just go
00:50:15Sir, there have been complications
00:50:29Explain
00:50:30During your absence, Mr. Ethan has been meeting with board members
00:50:34Such as seeing her sudden marriage plans indicate a stable decision making
00:50:39Several executors are questioning if someone so personally distracted should and hurt the company
00:50:47Mr. Crawford, we've been discussing my personal life
00:51:07Your sudden access has let me be very clear
00:51:17This company took a 40% profit loss before I took over
00:51:22Within three years, I tripled our market share
00:51:25Every major merger, every successful acquisition, every stock surge, my execution, my strategies
00:51:33So yes, I am getting married
00:51:36And yes, I took some time off
00:51:38And no
00:51:39Not a single person in this room has the right to question my commitment or my capability
00:51:46Because without me, there wouldn't be a company left to inherit
00:51:52Now
00:51:56Shall we discuss the merger?
00:51:58Tingle
00:52:03Who?
00:52:05Schubstra
00:52:17To
00:52:17Who?
00:52:18Who?
00:52:19Who?
00:52:20Who?
00:52:21Who?
00:52:22Who?
00:52:23Who?
00:52:24Who?
00:52:25Adrian! What the hell were you thinking at the board meeting yesterday?
00:52:44I was doing my job.
00:52:45Your job is to follow the family's strategy.
00:52:50Ever since she came into your life, you've been undermining everything we've built.
00:52:56You leave Lila out of this.
00:52:58You know, I don't have to stand here and listen to this.
00:53:01Yeah, run along. Adults are talking business now.
00:53:05We just need to bore him for a moment, dear. Business matters.
00:53:09You wouldn't understand.
00:53:17That girl is a poison to the Crawford name.
00:53:26She's nothing but a broodmare. After she delivers, pay her off and be done with it.
00:53:34Adrian needs someone who understands this world. Someone like me.
00:53:39Vivian is joining Crawford Industries tomorrow. Non-negotiable. She will follow you every day, just like before. And your little pet project can't stay home and just state that's all she's good for.
00:53:55Get out! Both of you!
00:54:00How dare you!
00:54:01If you dare mention my wife's name again, I will burn Crawford Industries to the ground before either of you get to touch it!
00:54:07Adrian, be reasonable!
00:54:10She is worth a thousand of you.
00:54:13Tomorrow, 9am. Vivian starts. No discussion.
00:54:19Is that all?
00:54:21Yes, for now.
00:54:22Yes, for now.
00:54:23But don't disappoint me again.
00:54:51Stop it. Stop checking. This is ridiculous. I was independent before. I don't need a man to make me breakfast in bed and to hold me whilst I sleep. No! I'm not going to be that girl.
00:55:20I can make my own meals. I don't need his perfectly prepared little plates or his nutritional spreadsheets.
00:55:34A poodmare.
00:55:38Way to get back at Ethan.
00:55:43Lilo!
00:55:45I'm fine!
00:55:47You're not fine. Hospital, now!
00:55:49I'm fine!
00:56:04Thanks. I know we've had our differences, but I really appreciated you today.
00:56:09You know, you used to look at me like that. All sweet. Sincere.
00:56:18Don't.
00:56:20Why not? Is there really no chance for us?
00:56:23Ethan!
00:56:24Lila, he's just using you. You're his revenge against me. A tool. And you deserve better than that.
00:56:36Adrian, stop!
00:56:38What are you doing?
00:56:39What are you doing?
00:56:40I'm protecting you.
00:56:41From what? He's helping. He brought me here. My hand was bleeding.
00:56:45So now you're defending him?
00:56:46No, I'm defending the truth.
00:56:48Sometimes...
00:56:49Sometimes...
00:56:51I guess people surprise you.
00:56:53I see.
00:56:55Adrian...
00:56:56I'll call the doctor to come.
00:56:57I want a full blood panel, fetal monitoring, bring the OBGYN down immediately.
00:57:06Sir, it's just a minor car. I want a full prenatal checkup.
00:57:11I've already spoken to Dr. Anderson. He's going to be down here in 10 minutes.
00:57:15Always so controlled, aren't you, Uncle?
00:57:20Some of us actually know how to make Lila happy.
00:57:24Remember our beach dates?
00:57:26How you said I was the most fun you ever had?
00:57:35Thompson, bring in the catering. The Michelin star one.
00:57:39Lila says she's got a hankering for Australian Wagyu beef.
00:57:42Oh, well done. No sauce.
00:57:45I don't think that I did say...
00:57:47How about when we watched your favorite movie?
00:57:51Pride and Prejudice. BBC adaptation, 1995.
00:57:53She likes to watch it when she's feeling stressed.
00:57:57Which is why I upgraded our home theater system.
00:58:00To have all the original films from the BBC archive.
00:58:03You did what?
00:58:04Wow!
00:58:07Using money to get to her heart.
00:58:10Huh, Uncle?
00:58:15The Alzheimer's Wing is fully renovated.
00:58:18Named after Lila's grandmother, as she mentioned.
00:58:20Oh, it's fully funded.
00:58:24Anonymous donor.
00:58:30He may be able to offer you money, but you're gonna miss this.
00:58:34Is this normal rich people behavior?
00:58:50Just my mind.
00:58:51I'm not.
00:58:54I've already ordered the prenatal vitamins.
00:58:55They should arrive shortly.
00:58:57They're custom formulated to her blood and genetic profile.
00:59:00Wow.
00:59:01He remembered all that about me.
00:59:03I remember everything about you.
00:59:09Maybe you should come back when there's less testosterone in the air.
00:59:14Guys, she's tired. We should leave. Let her rest.
00:59:16Let her rest.
00:59:26Is this just another competition, Ethan?
00:59:29Or does he actually care?
00:59:30Yes, father?
00:59:32Vivian's been hospitalized.
00:59:34Overworked, they say, from cleaning up your company's mess.
00:59:39I have meetings.
00:59:40Cancel them!
00:59:41Mmm, mmm, mmm, mmm, mmm, mmm, mmm.
00:59:48Yes, Father?
00:59:49Vivian's been hospitalized.
00:59:51Overwork, they say, from cleaning up your company's mess.
00:59:56I have meetings.
00:59:57Cancel them!
00:59:58Go to visit her right now.
01:00:01Either you show proper respect to the woman I chose for you,
01:00:05or else I will have to call an emergency board meeting.
01:00:11Oh, you came.
01:00:27Let's skip the performance, Vivian.
01:00:31Still so cold.
01:00:35Don't you remember when you used to bring me soup when I was on Will?
01:00:39That was a long time ago.
01:00:41We were really great together, Adrian.
01:00:44We could be together again.
01:00:46I don't know what game you're playing at, but it won't work.
01:00:49What we had, I never took it as seriously as you pretended to.
01:00:54But Lila, she's different.
01:00:57She's real.
01:00:59A pregnant gold digger is real?
01:01:01Please.
01:01:09I guess some things never change.
01:01:15Watch your words.
01:01:17Stay away from my wife.
01:01:19My little girl.
01:01:33Daddy.
01:01:34No.
01:01:35Your hand.
01:01:36It's nothing.
01:01:38I need to tell you something.
01:01:40I'm gonna be a mother.
01:01:42Is it that Ethan boys?
01:01:44No.
01:01:45No.
01:01:46Then who?
01:01:47It doesn't matter.
01:01:49But what does matter is that this is my baby.
01:01:52And I'm gonna love them so much.
01:01:55With all the love that you gave me.
01:01:59Baby.
01:02:01I'm so sorry.
01:02:03I'm sorry I couldn't, couldn't give you better.
01:02:07Daddy.
01:02:08If only I were healthy, if I could work.
01:02:10Daddy, don't.
01:02:13The hospital bills.
01:02:15What are you getting money for?
01:02:17Don't tell me you sold yourself to some men.
01:02:20No, no.
01:02:21It's not like that.
01:02:22Did someone take advantage of you?
01:02:24My little girl pregnant all alone?
01:02:27She's not alone.
01:02:28Hi Mr. Reid.
01:02:29I'm Adrian Crawford.
01:02:30I'm the father of her child.
01:02:31Adriana.
01:02:32I'm not just the father.
01:02:33I'm the man who's gonna spend the rest of his life making sure your daughter and our
01:02:48child get everything they deserve.
01:02:50Pretty words from a rich man.
01:02:53Not words.
01:02:54Facts.
01:02:55I've already arranged a transfer to a private medical facility.
01:02:57Full treatment plan.
01:02:58Best specialists.
01:02:59Adrian.
01:03:00And I promise you this.
01:03:04Every morning, she's gonna wake up knowing that she is cherished.
01:03:08Every decision I make, every step I take will be to ensure her happiness.
01:03:13You really mean that, don't you?
01:03:15Yes sir, I do.
01:03:16Well...
01:03:17Maybe...
01:03:18I can stop worrying now.
01:03:19Thank you for what you said in there.
01:03:22I know you were just trying to make my father feel better.
01:03:23No, no, no, no.
01:03:24I wasn't just doing anything.
01:03:25Every word I said in there is true.
01:03:26Adrian.
01:03:27Adrian.
01:03:28Adrian.
01:03:29Adrian.
01:03:30Adrian.
01:03:31Adrian.
01:03:32Adrian.
01:03:33Adrian.
01:03:34Adrian.
01:03:35Adrian.
01:03:36Adrian.
01:03:37Adrian.
01:03:38Adrian.
01:03:39Adrian.
01:03:40Adrian.
01:03:41I need to tell you something.
01:03:42I've been falling for you ever since you crashed into my office with that ridiculous
01:03:57donor questionnaire.
01:03:58Yes, we had a contract, but I realized you've become everything to me.
01:04:05You're not my surrogate.
01:04:07You're not my convenient fiancee.
01:04:11You're my partner.
01:04:16If you have me.
01:04:17But what about Ethan, Vivian?
01:04:22What about them?
01:04:23Aren't you trying to just get revenge on Ethan and-
01:04:29Revenge?
01:04:30I never loved Vivian.
01:04:32And Ethan, he's not worth a second thought.
01:04:34Really?
01:04:35Then who was the guy I saw competing with Ethan?
01:04:40That was-
01:04:44I was jealous, okay?
01:04:50The thought of you with him.
01:04:53Wow.
01:04:54The great Mr. Crawford.
01:04:56Jealous.
01:04:57Don't mention that.
01:04:58I have a reputation to maintain.
01:05:00Hmm.
01:05:01I'm not letting you go.
01:05:15Not ever.
01:05:17Not ever.
01:05:24Surrogacy?
01:05:27Contract of marriage?
01:05:29Oh, this is too perfect.
01:05:32Panic Hooded.
01:05:33Oh, what?
01:06:05Whiskey. Neat.
01:06:11What's so urgent?
01:06:12I know something about your little ex-girlfriend that might interest you.
01:06:16Is this about her and my uncle?
01:06:18It's about how she really got pregnant.
01:06:21Your perfect uncle? He hired her.
01:06:25She's just a surrogate. Their whole engagement is a lie.
01:06:31A contract.
01:06:32The board would love to hear about this.
01:06:38Next week's family meeting.
01:06:41He'll reveal everything. Until then, let's gather more evidence.
01:06:47And once he's ruined...
01:06:49I'll comfort him.
01:06:51Help him rebuild.
01:06:53He'll remember who he truly belongs with.
01:06:55And Lila?
01:07:01Well, once the truth's out, she'll be worthless to him.
01:07:04You can have your little toy back.
01:07:09Cheers.
01:07:09Um, Ethan's in meetings all afternoon.
01:07:28That's okay. I don't mind waiting.
01:07:32These documents require his immediate attention.
01:07:34Would you mind getting me some tea, dear?
01:07:47Sorry to see agreements.
01:07:49I'm going to call contracts.
01:07:51Come on.
01:07:54The train's always so organized.
01:07:56Where is everything?
01:07:57Everything.
01:07:57Everything.
01:07:57Everything.
01:07:58Everything.
01:07:59Everything.
01:07:59Everything.
01:08:00Everything.
01:08:01Everything.
01:08:01Everything.
01:08:02Everything.
01:08:03It's just a stupid cat.
01:08:19Are you okay?
01:08:21You're a beast!
01:08:22Attach me!
01:08:24I need your bathroom.
01:08:26Now!
01:08:33You know, if you need an heir, we could make one.
01:08:52Right here.
01:08:53Right now.
01:08:56Lila doesn't have to know.
01:08:58She's already asleep.
01:08:59It could just be our little secret.
01:09:06Here.
01:09:08In the living room.
01:09:11Wherever you want.
01:09:13Someone may see us.
01:09:15Are you scared?
01:09:16I know somewhere more.
01:09:21I know somewhere more.
01:09:23Private.
01:09:31Where are we going?
01:09:33Can't risk being interrupted, can we?
01:09:36Ladies first.
01:09:41Enjoy the fresh air.
01:09:43Adrian!
01:09:44Adrian!
01:09:45Adrian!
01:09:46You can't do this to me!
01:09:47I'm a Crawford executor!
01:09:55Stop filming me!
01:09:56This is harassment!
01:09:57I will sue you!
01:09:58I will sue you so hard!
01:09:59Adrian!
01:10:00Adrian!
01:10:01Adrian!
01:10:02Adrian!
01:10:03Adrian, let me in!
01:10:04Everyone!
01:10:05This crisis could have destroyed us, but thanks to your tireless efforts, Crawford is stronger
01:10:23than ever!
01:10:24To the best team in the business!
01:10:26Yeah!
01:10:30Though, speaking of tonight's celebration, there's something you all should be prepared for.
01:10:37For what?
01:10:39My uncle is bringing his fiancee tonight.
01:10:43The thing is, her and I were together until very recently.
01:10:47I know, I know, I know, but please, when they arrive, act normal.
01:10:57I couldn't bear any drama.
01:10:59She left you for your uncle!
01:11:02These things happen.
01:11:06Everyone!
01:11:08I'd like to introduce you to my fiancee, Lila Reed.
01:11:11Hello everybody, it's lovely to meet you all.
01:11:13I need to check some numbers.
01:11:18Did I do something wrong?
01:11:29How are you feeling?
01:11:31Is the morning sickness over yet?
01:11:32I'm fine.
01:11:34You know, I've been worried.
01:11:37All this stress can't be good for the baby.
01:11:39Which hospital are you using?
01:11:43I could drive you next time.
01:11:45That's not necessary.
01:11:48Come on.
01:11:50We used to tell each other everything.
01:11:52Just want to make sure you're getting the proper care.
01:11:55If I know her hospital, then I can get her surrogate history.
01:11:59How thoughtful.
01:12:01But Adrian handles all my appointments personally.
01:12:04The real hero of the hour!
01:12:05Wow!
01:12:08Beautiful.
01:12:13Isn't she?
01:12:15The type of woman who belongs in Adrian's world.
01:12:19Excuse me.
01:12:21You know how my uncle thinks.
01:12:24Like a chess master.
01:12:26Every piece has its use.
01:12:28Some for business.
01:12:31Others for...
01:12:32You don't know him.
01:12:34Oh.
01:12:35But I do.
01:12:37Adrian Crawford cares exactly about one person.
01:12:40Adrian Crawford.
01:12:42He sees people as investments.
01:12:44Vivian?
01:12:46Perfect for managing the company.
01:12:48You?
01:12:50Well...
01:12:52I think we both know what your role is.
01:12:56He's wrong.
01:12:57He has to be wrong.
01:13:02He's wrong.
01:13:03He's wrong.
01:13:04He's wrong.
01:13:05He's wrong.
01:13:06He's wrong.
01:13:07He's wrong.
01:13:08He's wrong.
01:13:09He's wrong.
01:13:10He's wrong.
01:13:11He's wrong.
01:13:12He's wrong.
01:13:13He's wrong.
01:13:14Everyone in this world has their place.
01:13:16Their purpose.
01:13:18Maybe it's time I found mine again.
01:13:20Their purpose.
01:13:21Maybe it's time I found mine again.
01:13:24Maybe when's the last time you ate something?
01:13:25I don't know.
01:13:26Breakfast.
01:13:27Yesterday's breakfast.
01:13:28Yesterday's breakfast.
01:13:29That's enough for today.
01:13:30Baby, when's the last time you ate something?
01:13:48I don't know.
01:13:50Breakfast.
01:13:51Yesterday's breakfast.
01:13:56That's enough for today.
01:13:58Okay.
01:14:00The prenatal instructor said this exercise should help.
01:14:07Okay.
01:14:07Like this?
01:14:09Uh, almost.
01:14:20Um, I think I need a little more instruction.
01:14:23Everything looks perfect.
01:14:48The baby's development's right on track.
01:14:52Really?
01:14:53Really.
01:14:54Now that you're in the stable period, intimate relations is perfectly safe, as long as you're gentle.
01:15:02Just listen to your bodies and...
01:15:04Yes, uh, thank you, Doctor.
01:15:11Everything will be open.
01:15:12Dr. Anderson.
01:15:26Dr. Anderson.
01:15:26Let's talk about Adrian Crawford's arrangement.
01:15:39Was it a surrogacy contract?
01:15:43Mr. Harrington.
01:15:45Dr. Patient Confidentiality.
01:15:47Hmm, I hear that the new hospital complex is looking for department heads.
01:15:56Wouldn't it be a shame if your name was mysteriously removed from the list?
01:16:04Yes, I'm sorry.
01:16:04Dr.pectctor, I think I'm serious.
01:16:04I've all reached the hospital, dr.
01:16:26Oh, my God.
01:16:29Oh, my God.
01:16:36Surrogacy. Surrogacy.
01:16:39Five generations of Crawford dignity destroyed by tabloid gossip.
01:16:46I knew that girl was hiding something.
01:16:51Did you?
01:16:52Did you really pay some nobody to carry your heir?
01:16:57Tell me it isn't true.
01:17:06You. It's your doing.
01:17:10I...
01:17:10Adrian.
01:17:14I need to discuss something with you. Privately.
01:17:23Adrian. I can make all of this disappear.
01:17:26All you have to do is remember who you really belong with.
01:17:30Who I belong with.
01:17:31We were good together. We can't be again.
01:17:35Give me the position I deserve.
01:17:37As Mrs. Crawford by your side.
01:17:41I do need your help.
01:17:43Please, never show up again.
01:17:45I won't let them hurt you.
01:18:04It's not me I'm worried about.
01:18:06If they expose the truth about our arrangement, you could lose everything.
01:18:13Nothing's more important than you and our child.
01:18:16This emergency family meeting will come to order.
01:18:41I have proof.
01:18:44Miss Reed is not Adrian's loving bride-to-be.
01:18:48She's just a surrogate.
01:18:51Paid to carry the Crawford heir.
01:18:53I have proof too.
01:18:59Medical records from Crawford.
01:19:08I have proof.
01:19:09I have proof too.
01:19:10...medical center, showing that Ms. Reed underwent...
01:19:40...for which she was generously compensated.
01:20:06Paid surrogacy.
01:20:12How common?
01:20:15I find you want the truth?
01:20:26Yes, it started with a surrogacy.
01:20:29But Lila, she's the woman I chose to be the mother of my child.
01:20:35And I won't let anyone here slander her.
01:20:38You want this arrangement? Fine.
01:20:42But then, it costs you everything.
01:20:54Resign from the company, give up your inheritance.
01:20:59The child can see in the family, of course.
01:21:02But the mother, well, her services won't be required after delivery.
01:21:12Yes, I did the IVF treatment.
01:21:16But I never, never saw this baby as a business transaction.
01:21:25You know what, you can say whatever you want about me.
01:21:28But don't you dare question my love for this child.
01:21:33Enough!
01:21:49Enough!
01:22:13I'm willing to give up everything.
01:22:15The company, the company, the inheritance of all of it.
01:22:22But I won't give up her.
01:22:25She's my wife.
01:22:27The only one that I will ever want.
01:22:30We're getting married.
01:22:32Properly.
01:22:34Publicly.
01:22:35Fine.
01:22:37You want to throw away-
01:22:39You want to throw away-
01:22:43Everything.
01:22:44For this.
01:22:45For th-
01:22:50This woman.
01:22:52Then, you will get nothing from this family.
01:22:55Nothing!
01:22:57Sign it.
01:22:58Renounce your inheritance.
01:23:00All of it.
01:23:01No, no, no, no, no, no.
01:23:05Adrian, stop.
01:23:06Not worth losing everything for.
01:23:08You're worth everything.
01:23:10The company, the assets, I built them once.
01:23:16I can build them again.
01:23:18But you.
01:23:19You and our child.
01:23:21You're our real future.
01:23:28Still time to think it over, son.
01:23:38Let's go.
01:23:39Let's go.
01:23:40-
01:23:53It's up.
01:23:54It's up.
01:23:55It's up.
01:23:56It's up.
01:23:57It's up.
01:23:58I'm going to like this.
01:23:59I'm going to like this.
01:24:00You're f-
01:24:02It's up.
01:24:03It's up.
01:24:04I've got to relax.
01:24:05Just walk.
01:24:06It's up, it's up.
01:24:07I'll get you some food.
01:24:23What do you mean you're cancelling the contract? We've worked together for ten years!
01:24:30No, no, no. Don't call Adrian. Hello? Hello? Hello?
01:24:36The Singapore merger just collapsed. They say they'll only work with Adrian.
01:24:40This is all your fault! You and your billion plan to get rid of them.
01:24:44My fault? You're the one who can't handle basic accounting!
01:24:47Enough!
01:24:49The board meeting starts in five minutes. Please tell me you have good news.
01:24:53Oh my god, this story sounds exactly like the powerful scandal.
01:25:06Wait, is this about the Adrian Crawford?
01:25:09The billionaire CEO giving up everything for love. I'm crying.
01:25:19Is everything okay?
01:25:21I think I just went viral.
01:25:24They heard out stories about us. Look!
01:25:28Should I be concerned about what else you've revealed about me?
01:25:32Have you seen the comments? They're calling us heartless villains!
01:25:51Can't believe they're trying to suffer some true love diseases.
01:25:56Crawford industries lost my business.
01:25:59Team Adrian, all the way.
01:26:02Yes, Penguin Publishing.
01:26:04Um, sorry, I actually have Random House on the other line, so I'm gonna have to...
01:26:08The movie rights?
01:26:10Um, I'm sorry, I'm gonna have to call you right back.
01:26:14Okay, thank you.
01:26:16The movie rights!
01:26:18What?
01:26:19Oh my god.
01:26:20My wife is so popular now.
01:26:21I know.
01:26:27Your father?
01:26:32Son, the board wants you back.
01:26:35Take your position, your inheritance.
01:26:38I'll have to ask my wife.
01:26:41What do you think, Mrs. Crawford?
01:26:43First order of business.
01:26:48Starting without me.
01:26:50Perfect timing.
01:26:52I'm announcing your termination.
01:26:55You can't fire me.
01:26:57I'm a shareholder and a senior executive.
01:27:00The company crisis last month wasn't an accident.
01:27:03You and Ethan deliberately sabotaged our deals.
01:27:06You can't prove any great email, every call, every secret meeting without me.
01:27:12All documented.
01:27:13All documented.
01:27:14Lawsuit's already been filed.
