Transcript
00:00:00Cheers, may be full surprises.
00:00:05Ho, ho, ho!
00:00:07I have a gift for you.
00:00:09Jessica, you have inherited this mansion,
00:00:12along with your father's business empire
00:00:14and assets worth over a billion dollars.
00:00:16I just need a signature from you.
00:00:18Oh, and a hundred and five million dollars in cash.
00:00:25We're rich!
00:00:27Let me hold on to you for your baby.
00:00:30You know, my whole life,
00:00:32I grew up in foster care,
00:00:35moving from place to place,
00:00:37and now I finally have a place that I can call home.
00:00:41It was real great to win the jackpot.
00:00:43Now my only wish is to reunite with my mother.
00:00:47You bastard child.
00:00:49You will never reunite with your mother.
00:00:52We made sure that that whore is gone forever.
00:00:55My mother is gone because of you?
00:00:57Well, we had a little help from James Thornton,
00:01:00the most powerful man in the Thornton family.
00:01:04Time for you to go back to your poor little country, sis.
00:01:08Yes, mother?
00:01:09USCIS.
00:01:10Your visa expired years ago.
00:01:12You're being deported.
00:01:13What? No, there must be some mistake.
00:01:15Adrian, didn't you help me file my immigration paperwork?
00:01:19Whoops.
00:01:20Well, I guess I screwed up.
00:01:22What?
00:01:24Hey, baby.
00:01:25Adrian, are you cheating on me?
00:01:28With her?
00:01:29Choose the right side, babe.
00:01:31You'll never win against them.
00:01:33That's true.
00:01:34Um, according to the terms of the will,
00:01:36non-citizens are not eligible to inherit the estate.
00:01:40Everything will pass to your next of kin,
00:01:42Lisa and Kristen Miller.
00:01:44You thought you could get rich overnight?
00:01:48Keep dreaming.
00:01:50Seriously?
00:01:51Bon voyage, half sis.
00:02:00The boss is urgent.
00:02:01They're about to deport a woman named Jessica Miller.
00:02:05Jessica Miller?
00:02:08It's her.
00:02:17Oh, thank God you're alive.
00:02:18She's so beautiful and kind.
00:02:20The girl I've always dreamed of.
00:02:23She saved my life once.
00:02:24I owe her.
00:02:29Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.
00:02:31Jessica?
00:02:32Do I know you?
00:02:33She doesn't remember me.
00:02:40I'm Daniel.
00:02:41You're a lawyer.
00:02:42Just pretend we know each other.
00:02:43If I can get you out of here.
00:02:45She's spoken to the judge.
00:02:46And Ms. Miller should be released immediately.
00:02:49Wait, wait, you can't deport her.
00:02:52She is about to marry a U.S. citizen.
00:02:56Who's the lucky guy?
00:02:57I am.
00:02:59I marry her.
00:03:00A fake marriage won't save her.
00:03:01Our marriage is real.
00:03:02Mm-hmm.
00:03:03Yeah.
00:03:04A hundred percent real.
00:03:05Prove it then.
00:03:06That's it?
00:03:07You call that a kiss?
00:03:08You need more proof, officer?
00:03:09Look.
00:03:10This guy is a lawyer.
00:03:11Just in the most important place.
00:03:12You need more proof, officer?
00:03:13Look.
00:03:14This guy is a lawyer to some of the most important families in town.
00:03:15And if you don't let her go, then they'll make sure you lose a damn job.
00:03:32Need more proof, officer?
00:03:34Look, this guy is a lawyer to some of the most important families in town.
00:03:39And if you don't let her go, then he'll make sure you lose your damn job.
00:03:43Fine, you can have her.
00:03:45Thank you, officer.
00:03:51I think we're good.
00:03:53It's not over.
00:03:57We'll be checking your marital status and conducting interviews.
00:04:00And there are a few very specific requirements you should know.
00:04:04Make sure you two are staying in the same house and sleeping in the same bed.
00:04:08Or it's game over.
00:04:12Well...
00:04:15Thank you...
00:04:17For the rescue.
00:04:19Oh, it's no problem.
00:04:21But, um...
00:04:23Daniel...
00:04:25Would you...
00:04:27Would you marry me?
00:04:29Oh, Jessica.
00:04:30I've waited for this moment for five years.
00:04:32I mean, it would only be a contract marriage.
00:04:36But once I get my green card, I'll inherit my father's business empire.
00:04:41And I'll share half of it with you.
00:04:44Even your misunderstanding looks so cute.
00:04:46I only want you, Jessica.
00:04:48But before I get my green card, you're gonna have to help me deal with my stepsister and her mom.
00:04:55They're trying to get rid of me.
00:04:57And they've already stolen my fortune.
00:05:00And they made my mother disappear.
00:05:05Deal.
00:05:06What?
00:05:07That's it?
00:05:11This lily stands for loyalties and new beginnings.
00:05:15Something that I want with you.
00:05:17Now I know it's rushed.
00:05:20But I promise you, I will buy you a proper ring soon.
00:05:24From now on, let's make every Christmas our own.
00:05:36Fill it.
00:05:37Full of memories.
00:05:38You can't do this!
00:05:52Jess, it's okay.
00:05:53Just wait here.
00:05:54I'll handle it.
00:06:01What?
00:06:02Why are you helping that girl?
00:06:04Kristen Miller is our ally.
00:06:06And she wants her the hell out of this picture.
00:06:09Too late, Dad.
00:06:10We already got married.
00:06:11Are you insane?
00:06:13Did you forget you're supposed to marry Ashley?
00:06:18Daniel Thornton.
00:06:21My mother is gone because of you?
00:06:23Well, we had a little help from James Thornton.
00:06:26The most powerful man in the Thornton family.
00:06:30Boy, I recognize that face from the newspaper.
00:06:34It was James Thornton from the Thornton family.
00:06:37The family responsible for my mother's disappearance.
00:06:44Stop telling me what I can and cannot do.
00:06:46She saved my life.
00:06:47I owe it to her.
00:06:48Roll the hell up, Daniel.
00:06:50You need to remember your position as the heir to our family.
00:06:53And you need to divorce that girl.
00:06:55Now, I'm doing this to clean your mess up.
00:06:59Just leave us alone.
00:07:08Sorry about that.
00:07:10Is your name Daniel Thornton?
00:07:13Thornton.
00:07:14Yeah.
00:07:17The Thornton family are responsible for the disappearance of my mother.
00:07:21I have been searching for her my entire life.
00:07:25Jess.
00:07:26No.
00:07:27I can explain.
00:07:28No, I'm not marrying Thornton.
00:07:29Wait, wait, wait, Jess, Jess.
00:07:31I'm not who you think I am.
00:07:32I have nothing to do with that family.
00:07:34Oh, really?
00:07:35Your name is right here.
00:07:36On the marriage certificate.
00:07:38Thornton.
00:07:39I share the last name as Thornton.
00:07:41And I am not one of them.
00:07:42Thornton is a common man.
00:07:44Just an ordinary guy.
00:07:45Really?
00:07:46Well, I don't believe you.
00:07:47I saw you talking to James Thornton.
00:07:50Is he your father?
00:07:54Is he your father?
00:07:55No.
00:07:56He's not my father.
00:07:57He was threatening to drive you out of the country,
00:07:58and I was not gonna have anything to do with it.
00:08:00Jess.
00:08:01I'm on your side.
00:08:02You're not one of them.
00:08:05I'm...
00:08:06I'm sorry.
00:08:09It's okay.
00:08:10Don't worry about it.
00:08:15Well, you have a nice apartment.
00:08:18Welcome.
00:08:21Is that your Labrador?
00:08:22That looks exactly like mine.
00:08:24I got mine as a Christmas present when I was nine.
00:08:26No way.
00:08:27I got mine as a Christmas present when I was nine.
00:08:29That's crazy.
00:08:32Jess, we're gonna have to sleep in the same room together
00:08:37just in case immigration ambush us.
00:08:39Yeah, but...
00:08:40Are you sure you're okay sleeping on the carpet?
00:08:42I mean, you've...
00:08:43You've done so much for me already, and I just...
00:08:45Jess, please.
00:08:46I insist.
00:08:47We made a deal, remember?
00:08:49I also want to thank you
00:08:51for giving me the chance to get rich.
00:08:54It's okay, Daniel.
00:08:57...
00:08:58It's sort of fun, though,
00:08:59Huh?
00:09:00that was perfect, all right?
00:09:03I would say...
00:09:04Do you have a good Bye!
00:09:09It feels so big!
00:09:11This whole video shows us in theBEs.
00:09:14This isактерovic room.
00:09:17No, no, no, no, no. I was, I was just passing by and just, do you need anything?
00:09:39I was joking. Uh, yeah, could you, uh, pass me the towel that's just hanging up next to the door?
00:09:45Uh, yeah, sure, sure.
00:09:51Hey.
00:10:01Oh, my God.
00:10:02What?
00:10:03I just got fired.
00:10:04What?
00:10:07Uh, wait, Jess, let me go with you.
00:10:12Yeah.
00:10:15Sam, please don't fire me.
00:10:26I'm sorry, Jess, but your immigration issue put us in a tough spot.
00:10:32I worked for this company for years.
00:10:35I'm sorry, Jess. There's nothing I can do.
00:10:40I'm sorry.
00:10:40Look who's here. Someone who just got fired.
00:10:50This suits you.
00:10:51It was you. I should have known you were behind this.
00:10:59I'm not going to let you stay here and ruin things. I'm going to take away everything you have, sister.
00:11:08You just made a big mistake, sir.
00:11:10Who are you?
00:11:11My name is Daniel Thornton, son of James Thornton, the chairman of Thornton Enterprise.
00:11:18Oh, uh, Mr. Thornton, uh, welcome.
00:11:23What brings you here?
00:11:26Well, I have some good news for you.
00:11:30Jessica Miller?
00:11:31Mm-hmm.
00:11:31She's just closed a billion-dollar deal.
00:11:33Oh, my God.
00:11:51It's real.
00:11:53Absolutely.
00:11:54With her hard work and dedication, she's made this possible.
00:11:58It's a real shame you're going to lose such a valuable employee.
00:12:01Oh, uh, Mr. Thornton, um, I have made a huge mistake.
00:12:08Uh, Jessica will stay.
00:12:12Good.
00:12:13And, uh, make sure nobody knows we have this conversation.
00:12:21Jessica!
00:12:23You should have told me!
00:12:25What are you talking about, Sam?
00:12:30Jessica!
00:12:31You secured a huge deal for the company!
00:12:35Did you not just fire her?
00:12:37I changed my mind.
00:12:40Jessica's saying, actually, she's being promoted to sales manager.
00:12:46Can't afford to lose someone as valuable as, like, her?
00:12:50Great.
00:12:51Thanks, Sam.
00:12:53This is not over.
00:12:59I can't believe it.
00:13:00Jessica kept her job, and she gets promoted.
00:13:03Don't worry, Lisa.
00:13:05I just spoke with James Thornton, and he had the lawyer change the will in our favor.
00:13:10Jessica will get nothing.
00:13:12Oh, my God.
00:13:14That's fantastic.
00:13:15No way.
00:13:34Jessica?
00:13:35How's work?
00:13:36Did you get your job back?
00:13:38Daniel, I need a lawyer.
00:13:40I need a lawyer.
00:13:45Well, look who decided to show up.
00:13:50Too bad for you, Jess.
00:13:52Turns out Daddy's will left you nothing.
00:13:55I knew all along Robert wouldn't leave anything for this little, pathetic, bastard child.
00:14:02You are out of luck.
00:14:04Well, that's a lie.
00:14:05You showed me the will, and I signed the documents.
00:14:09Uh, I'm sorry, Jessica.
00:14:11Um, I've just discovered a revised will that, um, supports Kristen and Lisa's claims.
00:14:19Who's the thought?
00:14:20Who is this?
00:14:21He's my lawyer.
00:14:22And a damn good one.
00:14:24Oh.
00:14:25You know, Jess, I didn't realize you had enough money to pay for a fancy little lawyer.
00:14:30You sleep with them?
00:14:31Patrick, can I have a word with you outside?
00:14:36Talk all you want.
00:14:37It won't change anything.
00:14:46All right, Patrick.
00:14:48I'm going to keep this short and sweet.
00:14:50I know you changed the will to favor Kristen and Lisa.
00:14:53I know what you're talking about, Mr. Thornton.
00:14:55The revised will saw it.
00:14:57Ted found an email exchange with my father.
00:14:59Here, here, take a look.
00:15:02You've been caught, Patrick.
00:15:04Honor of the will, I'll report you to the Bar Association.
00:15:07You'll lose your license and any chance of practicing law or game.
00:15:10That goes against your father's wishes.
00:15:12You don't understand the position he put me in.
00:15:14I'll deal with my father.
00:15:15Don't you worry about that.
00:15:18You just worry about doing the right thing.
00:15:25Um, this revised will is a fake.
00:15:28The original will stand.
00:15:29What the hell are you doing?
00:15:31He's doing the right thing.
00:15:34Jessica, you've got your inheritance back.
00:15:37Congratulations.
00:15:39Oh, my God.
00:15:42Patrick, do what you are supposed to do or James will make sure you face the consequences.
00:15:49Don't listen to it, Patrick.
00:15:52I'll deal with James Thornton.
00:15:54Who the hell do you think you are?
00:15:57James Thornton is one of the most powerful men in this town.
00:16:01I sure can.
00:16:02Isn't that right, Patrick?
00:16:04Yes.
00:16:05The original will stands.
00:16:06No, you are crazy.
00:16:08No, I'm not.
00:16:10According to the original will, Jessica stands to inherit this mansion.
00:16:14Kristen, you're out.
00:16:16I think you two should leave.
00:16:18You homewrecker.
00:16:19Just like your mother.
00:16:20I will not allow violence.
00:16:24I didn't come here to argue over a house and assets.
00:16:30I came here to be recognized as an actual member of this family.
00:16:34Yeah, well, it's easy for you to say you're getting everything.
00:16:36You don't know how lucky you are, Lisa.
00:16:38You grew up with a father who loved you.
00:16:41I had none.
00:16:42And you took my mother away from me, and I still don't know where she is.
00:16:48You two don't deserve this mansion.
00:16:50And I would rather give it away to charity than to see the two of you living in.
00:16:58I do not.
00:16:59You two should pack your things up.
00:17:04You have one week to leave this house.
00:17:14What the hell were you thinking?
00:17:17Sabotaging my plan?
00:17:18I was just doing the right thing.
00:17:20The right thing?
00:17:22Going against me?
00:17:24Kristen Miller has got no power anymore.
00:17:26Her game is over.
00:17:27I'm sure you didn't come all this way just to argue with me.
00:17:31So what do you want?
00:17:34I just want Jessica to get her mom back.
00:17:38Interesting.
00:17:41What's in it for me?
00:17:43Once Jessica gets her mom back, I'll do whatever you want.
00:17:47Whatever I want?
00:17:49Like what exactly?
00:17:52I'll marry Ashley.
00:17:54You'll marry Ashley?
00:17:56Ashley?
00:17:57Yeah.
00:17:58You're willing to do that?
00:17:59Yeah.
00:18:00I am.
00:18:02But only if she's reunited with her mother.
00:18:06Okay.
00:18:07Deal.
00:18:09I'll make the arrangements.
00:18:11So you're really in love with this one, huh?
00:18:14Yeah.
00:18:16I am.
00:18:17Okay, kid.
00:18:19Sure hope she's working.
00:18:21She is.
00:18:22What's wrong?
00:18:27We have a guest.
00:18:31Mr. Thornton.
00:18:34Good to see you again.
00:18:35Interview time.
00:18:37Great.
00:18:40When did you two meet?
00:18:41Uh, we met at a friend's party two years ago.
00:18:46What do you say, Jessica?
00:18:47Hmm?
00:18:49Oh, yeah, yeah.
00:18:51Mm-hmm.
00:18:51Interesting.
00:18:53And when did you decide to get married?
00:18:56Eight months ago.
00:18:57Six months ago.
00:18:58Six months or eight months?
00:18:59Which one is it?
00:19:00Yeah, eight months ago.
00:19:01Sorry, I just...
00:19:03Sorry, I'm always getting mixed up.
00:19:05Sure.
00:19:07Easy mistake to make.
00:19:09And what's your anniversary date?
00:19:11March 15th.
00:19:13March 15th?
00:19:15All right.
00:19:20Uh, that's it?
00:19:22Yes, Mr. Thornton.
00:19:24I have everything I need.
00:19:26I'll report back to the judges.
00:19:27Oh, wait.
00:19:31Uh, this.
00:19:34How did we do in there?
00:19:38It was pretty bad.
00:19:42Look.
00:19:44I'm the son of James Thornton.
00:19:46I know who you are.
00:19:49Uh, okay.
00:19:52You want to bribe me?
00:19:55Yes.
00:19:56I can't be bribed.
00:19:58Here's one million dollars.
00:20:04Two million dollars.
00:20:06Right.
00:20:10Three million dollars.
00:20:13It's tempting, but like I said, you can't bribe me.
00:20:16Please.
00:20:17Can you just give us one more week to prepare?
00:20:20I really want to be with this woman.
00:20:22She means the world to me.
00:20:23She saved my life.
00:20:24I'm not going to take your money, but I'll give you one week.
00:20:28Make it count.
00:20:31Next time, I want to see some genuine affection between you two.
00:20:34Yeah.
00:20:34If anything seems a bit off, your game's up.
00:20:37Of course.
00:20:37And one more thing, I can tell you two haven't had sex yet.
00:20:44I'm that good, Mr. Daniel.
00:20:46Don't try and fool me.
00:20:53She gave us another chance.
00:20:54Oh, my God.
00:20:55We have one week to get our story straight.
00:20:58Thank you, Daniel.
00:21:01You've been very, very helpful today.
00:21:04Now, I wanted to make our first Christmas special, so I did a little digging and I found this.
00:21:26This tree is amazing.
00:21:28This tree is amazing.
00:21:35What happened?
00:21:38Let me have a look.
00:21:39Let me have a look.
00:22:09A festive gift for you, too.
00:22:19Wow.
00:22:21Jess, you look gorgeous.
00:22:28And then I told him that's not how you negotiate.
00:22:32You did it.
00:22:33You did.
00:22:34You did it.
00:22:44Let me have a look.
00:22:48It's gonna be wrong.
00:23:16Baby.
00:23:18Baby.
00:23:20Baby.
00:23:25Baby.
00:23:34Baby.
00:23:39Baby.
00:23:43Baby.
00:23:46Baby.
00:23:47Baby.
00:23:48Baby.
00:23:49Baby.
00:23:50Baby.
00:23:51Baby.
00:23:52Baby.
00:23:53Baby.
00:23:54Baby.
00:23:55Baby.
00:23:56Baby.
00:23:57Baby.
00:23:58Baby.
00:23:59Baby.
00:24:00Baby.
00:24:01Baby.
00:24:02Baby.
00:24:03Baby.
00:24:04Baby.
00:24:05Baby.
00:24:06Baby.
00:24:07Baby.
00:24:08Baby.
00:24:09Baby.
00:24:10Baby.
00:24:11Baby.
00:24:12Baby.
00:24:13Baby.
00:24:14Baby.
00:24:15Baby.
00:24:16Baby.
00:24:17Baby.
00:24:18Baby.
00:24:19Baby.
00:24:20Baby.
00:24:21Baby.
00:24:22Baby.
00:24:23Baby.
00:24:24Baby.
00:24:25Baby.
00:24:56You know, I've seen this before, in the, uh, in a magazine.
00:25:05It looks like one of those, um, Thornton family watches.
00:25:13Is it real?
00:25:13Uh, no.
00:25:20You wear a thank watch?
00:25:23Yeah.
00:25:26I'm so happy, Jess.
00:25:39There's also something I need to tell you about your mom.
00:25:43Oh my god.
00:26:00Did I just sleep with Daniel last night?
00:26:02I, I told him it would only be a contract marriage.
00:26:14Morning.
00:26:15This is the most beautiful morning that I've ever had.
00:26:19Daniel, I'm, I'm so sorry about last night.
00:26:24It was, it wasn't supposed to happen and I promise it will, it will never happen again.
00:26:31She didn't mean it.
00:26:32Oh, Jessica.
00:26:34Last night was amazing.
00:26:36Uh, yeah, Jess, uh, I get it.
00:26:41It was, uh, it was a one-time thing.
00:26:45Yeah, just like, just a one-time thing.
00:26:49Yeah.
00:26:52Anyway, it's, uh, your big day today.
00:26:56You're the new CEO of Miller Empire.
00:26:58Thank you for the reminder.
00:27:05Now that you mention it, I'm really scared.
00:27:07Oh, uh, no, Jess, I didn't mean it like that.
00:27:11Uh, what I was meant to say is...
00:27:15I'm gonna help.
00:27:21I don't know what to do, Mother.
00:27:23That bitch is kicking us out.
00:27:25We still have a chance.
00:27:27That bastard child needs a unanimous vote from the board to be chosen as the next CEO.
00:27:33So we just need a board member to back us up.
00:27:35I will call Richard.
00:27:37Everyone respects Richard's vote.
00:27:39And I will make sure he doesn't vote for her.
00:27:42And I'll dig up all the dirt I can find on her.
00:27:44You go, girl.
00:27:56These clothes are beautiful.
00:28:00But, uh, very expensive.
00:28:04Like this one.
00:28:05That is...
00:28:06$9,000.
00:28:08Jess, don't worry about it.
00:28:11It's on me.
00:28:12Look at it as, uh, my first gift to my wife.
00:28:16No, but Daniel, I can't let you pay for this.
00:28:19Look, Jess, you're gonna be a CEO.
00:28:21Which means you've gotta look the part.
00:28:23Trust me.
00:28:25It's an investment.
00:28:25Mr. Thornton, welcome back.
00:28:29How can I assist you today?
00:28:31Come here a lot?
00:28:32Uh, no.
00:28:33Well, of course, Mr. Thornton owns this store.
00:28:36Uh, Jess, why don't you try this one on?
00:28:40You'll look great in it.
00:28:41Well, Jess, you look amazing.
00:28:50You think so, though?
00:28:51Yeah.
00:28:53This is exactly what a CEO would wear.
00:28:55Absolutely.
00:28:56Great choice.
00:28:57We'll take this one.
00:29:00Something on your mind?
00:29:02Well, it's probably nothing, but it's just that clerk seemed very fond of you.
00:29:08Oh, uh, being friendly is a part of my job.
00:29:13Okay.
00:29:13So that's how you got your lawyer, huh?
00:29:24Now that you mention it, maybe she was a little friendly.
00:29:28But we got a discount.
00:29:30Sure.
00:29:39What a slut.
00:29:43Trust me, Jess.
00:29:46You can do this.
00:29:47Yeah, but what if they don't accept me?
00:29:49They will.
00:29:50Trust me.
00:29:51Just speak from the heart and show your true self.
00:29:54Mm-hmm.
00:29:55Look at you two little lovebirds.
00:29:59Athletic.
00:30:03Ted, can we talk about this later?
00:30:05Okay.
00:30:08You go in.
00:30:09I'll lead you in there soon, okay?
00:30:13Good luck in there, sis.
00:30:19You're gonna need it.
00:30:21You don't have the votes.
00:30:22I know my background doesn't seem very typical of a CEO, but I built myself from the bottom up here.
00:30:33Miller Corporation is a leader in tech and services, reaching industries from healthcare to energy.
00:30:42We have over 10,000 employees worldwide who have worked hard to build this company from the ground up.
00:30:51And I was one of them.
00:30:52I know them.
00:30:53And I believe that I can help lead this company to become everyone's company.
00:30:59Let's proceed to the vote.
00:31:02All in favor?
00:31:07Robert lost his damn mind.
00:31:09He picked his secret child to be the CEO, only because of his guilty conscience.
00:31:13Richard, if I may...
00:31:16I'm not done talking.
00:31:17You can't lead us.
00:31:19And you're not getting my vote.
00:31:23Richard, if I may speak...
00:31:24Go ahead.
00:31:26But I won't change my mind.
00:31:31Sorry for interrupting everyone.
00:31:32But I have something important to share with you all today.
00:31:35Who the hell are you?
00:31:36Well, Richard, I'm the person who's going to expose you.
00:31:40What did you just say?
00:31:42How do I say this?
00:31:44Uh, you're a sex pervert.
00:31:47What?
00:31:49You see, everyone, this file contains multiple sexual harassment lawsuits against Richard over the past 30 years.
00:32:00Some of them also have ongoing lawsuits.
00:32:04They're all just allegations, and they've all been settled.
00:32:07I'm innocent.
00:32:08We've also got in contact with some of the victims, and they're willing to come forward and testify.
00:32:12Actually...
00:32:12I have not finished yet.
00:32:14You're also stealing money from the company.
00:32:17And we have financial records to own it.
00:32:24The evidence is clear.
00:32:26He's guilty.
00:32:27Okay, then.
00:32:30Let's all vote for Richard Donnell's immediate suspension.
00:32:34All in favor?
00:32:39We have 15 votes.
00:32:42The board has decided.
00:32:43Richard Donnell is officially removed from his position.
00:32:46Security, escort him out immediately.
00:32:50I know my way.
00:32:56And all in favor of appointing Jessica Miller as the new CEO.
00:33:01I'm sorry, I was late.
00:33:18I had to make sure I had enough evidence to nail him.
00:33:20No, don't be sorry, Daniel.
00:33:22That was so worth the wait.
00:33:24Good.
00:33:26This is not over.
00:33:28You'll see.
00:33:29How's packing going, Lisa?
00:33:30You're about to be evicted, sir.
00:33:33Bye-bye.
00:33:38She won again, that bitch.
00:33:40I know.
00:33:41It's so unfair.
00:33:42Do we have a guest?
00:33:44Lisa, honey.
00:33:46I've been trying to reach you.
00:33:47Why haven't you returned my calls?
00:33:49I've been busy.
00:33:51Busy.
00:33:52Dealing with Jessica.
00:33:54How did you know?
00:33:55Oh, I know.
00:33:56And I think I know how to help you take it down.
00:33:59Again.
00:34:00No use to me anymore, Adrian.
00:34:02I only needed you to help me get rid of Jessica.
00:34:06To the new CEO of the Miller Empire.
00:34:11Well, I couldn't have done it without you, Daniel.
00:34:13I also have another Christmas surprise for you.
00:34:18Who are you calling?
00:34:18Is it?
00:34:22Yes, Jess.
00:34:24It's your mother, Clara.
00:34:26Oh, my God.
00:34:27Mom!
00:34:28Oh, Jessica, you're a grown woman now.
00:34:31The Miller family threatened to kill you, Jess.
00:34:34I had no option but to vanish.
00:34:38Oh, Mom, it's okay.
00:34:39It's okay.
00:34:40Like, you didn't do anything wrong.
00:34:42I'll bring you back into the country, I promise.
00:34:46Daniel, how did you find her?
00:34:47I have a few powerful friends.
00:34:50They did me a favor.
00:34:52But I'll leave you two alone.
00:35:04Two more, please.
00:35:07Daniel.
00:35:10Adrian.
00:35:10Long time no see, buddy.
00:35:13Oh, my God.
00:35:14How long has it been?
00:35:15Ten years.
00:35:16Ten years!
00:35:17Oh, my God.
00:35:19The last time I must have seen you was, uh, law school.
00:35:23Yep.
00:35:24Go Reds.
00:35:26Go Reds.
00:35:27Uh, w-what are you doing here?
00:35:30Just in town to run some errands.
00:35:32Just about to come here for a quick bite.
00:35:34Nice, man, nice.
00:35:36I saw your date earlier.
00:35:38She looks pretty.
00:35:39Yeah, my wife.
00:35:41Your wife.
00:35:42Yeah, Jess.
00:35:43You're married.
00:35:44Yes.
00:35:45Yeah, you have to introduce me, do I?
00:35:46Come on, let's go say hi.
00:35:48Come and say hello.
00:35:49It's good to see you, bud.
00:35:50Good to see you, too, man.
00:35:52Jess, I wanted you to meet an old friend of mine.
00:35:55Adrian, this is Jess.
00:35:56Jess, this is Adrian.
00:35:58We went to law school together.
00:36:04I-I-I don't want to see him.
00:36:06I-I-I don't want to see him.
00:36:13You two know each other.
00:36:14Yes, Daniel.
00:36:16I was her first boyfriend.
00:36:21Come on, Jess.
00:36:22Don't you miss me.
00:36:24I don't want to see you anymore.
00:36:26You know you're still in love with me, Jess.
00:36:28No, I don't.
00:36:33I think you should leave, Adrian.
00:36:36Okay, Daniel.
00:36:37Relax.
00:36:38Now.
00:36:38I'm leaving.
00:36:49Does she know she's lying?
00:36:54Boss, Adrian Wesley now represents Lisa and Kristen Miller.
00:36:58They want to test the word.
00:37:00I should have known.
00:37:01What else?
00:37:03Adrian also needs me, Jessica.
00:37:04Actually, he's the one who sabotaged Jessica's immigration paperwork.
00:37:10It caused all this trouble.
00:37:15That son of a bitch.
00:37:17We need to win this war.
00:37:19Do whatever it takes.
00:37:28Daniel?
00:37:30Sorry.
00:37:31Did I wake you?
00:37:33No, can...
00:37:34Can you join me in bed, please?
00:37:40You sure?
00:37:46I just...
00:37:47I wanted to apologize for earlier.
00:37:51The restaurant.
00:37:54I got a bit carried away.
00:37:56Jess, you don't need to apologize.
00:38:00Adrian's an asshole.
00:38:01He's just trying to do it to get on your skin.
00:38:02I didn't care for Adrian once, but he just destroyed everything we had.
00:38:10I want you to know that I'm here because of you.
00:38:17And you're the only one who I love.
00:38:22No one else.
00:38:22I love you too, Jess.
00:38:36And I'm not going anywhere.
00:38:38Good morning, husband.
00:38:53Good morning, wife.
00:38:56Are you ready for your big day as the new CEO?
00:38:58If only you were with me.
00:39:00You're going to do great today.
00:39:22Jess, here's your coffee.
00:39:36What's wrong?
00:39:37No, it's just this job.
00:39:39It's all so new to me.
00:39:41Okay, calm down.
00:39:43Remember, you're the CEO.
00:39:45Which means you're the boss.
00:39:47Yeah, but I don't know how to be a boss.
00:39:51Hey, Jess.
00:39:53Look at you sitting in the big chair now.
00:39:56Oh, Gina, I am so happy you're here.
00:40:00Aw.
00:40:01You must be Daniel.
00:40:05Jessica's been talking about you for days.
00:40:08I'm flattered.
00:40:10I really wish you could be here with me, G.
00:40:12It's exhausting.
00:40:13Oh, at least you have a job, Jess.
00:40:15I've been looking for work for the past two months.
00:40:19Jess?
00:40:19Do you like Gianna being here?
00:40:26Of course.
00:40:27We've been besties since forever.
00:40:29Forever.
00:40:30Yeah, what kind of question is that?
00:40:32Well, why don't you use your CEO power and hire Gianna?
00:40:39Oh, I don't.
00:40:40I know what you mean.
00:40:41I don't understand.
00:40:43How would you like to come work for me?
00:40:49Of course.
00:40:50For me.
00:40:51Okay, then.
00:40:53My first order as a CEO.
00:40:57Gianna, you are hired.
00:40:59As my personal assistant.
00:41:02Oh, my God, Jess.
00:41:03Thank you so much.
00:41:05See?
00:41:06Being a boss is easy.
00:41:08You can do whatever you want.
00:41:09Oh, my God.
00:41:19What's wrong?
00:41:20The company's stock prices are dropping like crazy.
00:41:23What is happening?
00:41:25This isn't me.
00:41:27The stock's going to dump me.
00:41:29Well, well, well.
00:41:30Looks like things aren't going so well.
00:41:34What did you do, Lisa?
00:41:35I asked Richard and some of the other investors to sell their stocks.
00:41:41The board members are not going to be happy about the stock prices, Jessica.
00:41:44What do you want?
00:41:46Resign.
00:41:48I CEO or I will destroy this company.
00:41:51Yeah, no way.
00:41:52Okay.
00:41:54Then I will destroy this company.
00:41:57Jessica, the board members are asking to meet with you.
00:42:00They're angry.
00:42:06What are you going to do, Jess?
00:42:08Okay.
00:42:08I'll meet with the board.
00:42:10Wait, Jess.
00:42:12Don't go.
00:42:13Take a seat.
00:42:14What is it?
00:42:16Lisa, are you sure the stock prices are going down?
00:42:21Because to me, they seem to be going up and up.
00:42:25That's impossible.
00:42:26You would need at least a billion dollars.
00:42:29I guess anything's possible these days.
00:42:32God damn it!
00:42:34God, she's annoying.
00:42:40No, you must be my lucky star.
00:42:41Daniel.
00:42:52Gianna.
00:42:53I know who you are, Daniel.
00:42:55You're the son of James Thornton.
00:42:57How'd you find out?
00:42:59My identity's meant to be a secret.
00:43:01I used to work for your father.
00:43:02Please don't tell Jess.
00:43:04I'll pay you.
00:43:05How much do you want?
00:43:06I don't want your money.
00:43:07I care for my friend.
00:43:09Actually, your father fired me because I tried to help Jessica.
00:43:14I'm sorry, Gianna.
00:43:15It's okay.
00:43:17I just want to know why.
00:43:20She hates my family.
00:43:22I have to lie to her.
00:43:24She hates your family, but she loves you.
00:43:28I can see that.
00:43:30You really think so?
00:43:32Yes.
00:43:32I love her, too.
00:43:35She's the best thing that's ever happened to me.
00:43:39That's good to hear.
00:43:41Please protect her.
00:43:50Daniel.
00:43:52It's my mom.
00:43:54Adrian threatened her.
00:43:55Adrian threatened my mom on the phone.
00:44:02He said he was going to block her from entering the country.
00:44:06What should we do?
00:44:08Jess, I don't want you to worry about it.
00:44:11I'm going to make sure your mom gets here safely.
00:44:13I need you to make sure Jessica's mom gets here safely.
00:44:33Look, we're on the first flight out tomorrow.
00:44:35Got it, boss.
00:44:36She'll be here in town the day after tomorrow.
00:44:39Good.
00:44:39Jess has been taken care of.
00:44:48Your mom's going to be here the day after tomorrow.
00:44:51Thank you, Daniel.
00:44:54But I'm...
00:44:55I'm still scared.
00:44:58I just...
00:44:59I need a day off.
00:45:00I love the sound of that.
00:45:02What do you have in mind?
00:45:04I was thinking...
00:45:06I want to buy a house.
00:45:19So?
00:45:22Do you like this place?
00:45:23It's amazing.
00:45:25But, Jess, I appreciate the gesture.
00:45:28But you don't need to buy me a house.
00:45:30No, no.
00:45:33I insist.
00:45:35You've done so much to help me.
00:45:38Besides, we can live together here.
00:45:41Miss Thornton.
00:45:43Hi.
00:45:43Your father is here.
00:45:45Are you meeting here?
00:45:50Well, I've never met your parents.
00:45:54So, I'm pretty excited to meet an in-law.
00:46:00Oh, is...
00:46:01Is that him?
00:46:03Come on, let's go say hi.
00:46:05Jess, wait.
00:46:06Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.
00:46:09Um...
00:46:10I might not have told my dad about you and our marriage.
00:46:14Why?
00:46:16Uh...
00:46:17Because he has a heart condition?
00:46:20I think it's best you stay here.
00:46:23Okay.
00:46:25I'll just...
00:46:27stay here, then.
00:46:30Good.
00:46:35Dad?
00:46:36Come on.
00:46:37Daniel, what the hell?
00:46:39Jessica's here.
00:46:40She can't see her face.
00:46:41Don't take them off.
00:46:44I want to talk to you about Ashley, Daniel.
00:46:46Why hasn't Daniel told his father about me and our wedding?
00:46:54Ashley, really?
00:46:55Not today.
00:46:58And what is this shirt you're wearing?
00:47:01Mother insisted I'm wearing Miss Charity event in the morning ride.
00:47:07Said it makes me look more grounded.
00:47:10I'm approaching one.
00:47:14And don't go changing our subject.
00:47:15I want to discuss our agreement.
00:47:18I give you Clara, and you marry Ashley.
00:47:25Why does he look so nervous?
00:47:28Am I not good enough?
00:47:30Do we have to talk about this right now?
00:47:36I held up my end of the bargain, Daniel.
00:47:38I want this deal done now.
00:47:41Actually, Clara isn't safe yet.
00:47:43Lisa Miller might try to be sabotaging everything.
00:47:46This is why you don't mess with the Miller family.
00:47:50You should have left it alone.
00:47:51All I'm asking is just a few more days.
00:47:54Ashley is coming to town in a few days.
00:47:56What?
00:47:59Jess!
00:47:59Uh, Jess.
00:48:00Dad, this is Jess.
00:48:11Jess, this is Dad.
00:48:14You can call him Jimmy.
00:48:15Jimmy?
00:48:16Hmm?
00:48:16I'm Jimmy, sweetie.
00:48:21It's lovely to meet you, Jimmy.
00:48:23And can I just say, that is a lovely Hawaiian shirt.
00:48:27It really, really suits you.
00:48:29Well, thank you, Jessica.
00:48:31It's, uh, one I'm fond of.
00:48:33So, who is Ashley?
00:48:37I heard you guys talking about her earlier.
00:48:40Oh, she's just, uh, an old family friend.
00:48:45They grew up and went to law school together.
00:48:49And she had Daniel's first kiss.
00:48:52Oh.
00:48:54Her wedding is, uh, approaching soon, and, uh, I'd like Daniel to attend.
00:48:59Dad!
00:49:01Reminiscing about the good old days.
00:49:02No, it's, it's fine.
00:49:03Honestly, it's lovely to hear about Daniel's childhood and more about his life.
00:49:08You bastard child.
00:49:14Well, well.
00:49:16What do we have here?
00:49:18You think you can afford this place?
00:49:21You're about to lose this battle and be out on the streets soon.
00:49:26Who's this clown?
00:49:30Looks like he belongs in a circus.
00:49:32How dare you, Kristen?
00:49:34How do you know my name?
00:49:36And don't you dare call me by my first name.
00:49:39That's enough.
00:49:42Don't talk to my father like that.
00:49:45Oh.
00:49:47He's your father.
00:49:50How does it feel to be a father of such a loser?
00:49:53Don't talk to my family like that.
00:49:56Your family.
00:49:58Your family suck, Jessica.
00:50:01Especially your mother.
00:50:03The home-wrecking tramp.
00:50:06A whore.
00:50:08Oh.
00:50:08Damn.
00:50:09Damn.
00:50:10How dare you slap me.
00:50:10That is enough, Kristen.
00:50:11You're not gonna lay a hand on my wife.
00:50:12Laddies.
00:50:15You need to leave.
00:50:16You can't throw up.
00:50:16You can't throw up.
00:50:16You're not gonna lay a hand on my wife.
00:50:17You're not gonna lay a hand on my wife.
00:50:18You're not gonna lay a hand on my wife.
00:50:18especially your mother, the home-wrecking Tramp, a whore.
00:50:25Damn!
00:50:30How dare you slap me?
00:50:33That is enough, Kristen.
00:50:36You're not gonna lay a hand on my wife.
00:50:41Laddies, you need to live now.
00:50:44You can't throw us out. We're buyers.
00:50:46We're not going anywhere.
00:50:48The owner of this property has banned you from coming here.
00:50:50You need to live now or I will call security.
00:50:54You will regret this.
00:50:59I've heard that a thousand times.
00:51:01Now leave.
00:51:12Thank you, Jessica.
00:51:14You stood up for me.
00:51:16Well, we're a family, Jimmy.
00:51:18That's what I'm supposed to do.
00:51:22Well, I appreciate it.
00:51:26You're a nice girl.
00:51:28You found a good wife, son.
00:51:32Dad.
00:51:34About Ashy's wedding.
00:51:35I don't think I'm gonna be able to make it.
00:51:37I'll look into it.
00:51:38I'll speak to her about it.
00:51:40Oh, no, no, no, no.
00:51:42Daniel can still attend.
00:51:43It's not a problem.
00:51:45Jess, I just wanna focus on you and I.
00:51:47I'm not the jealous type.
00:51:50Plus, I don't want you to miss your first crush's wedding.
00:51:53Well, you decide, Daniel.
00:51:57Oh, there's the loan party.
00:51:59You two wanna come?
00:52:01It's in three hours.
00:52:03Yeah.
00:52:05That will go.
00:52:07Great.
00:52:08I'll see you there.
00:52:10Well, this place is extremely high class.
00:52:25Well, my dad has a few rich friends.
00:52:31And James Thornton is here.
00:52:35I know you don't wanna see him.
00:52:38But, Jess, my dad's here.
00:52:40He's gonna join us later.
00:52:41Okay.
00:52:44The bidding's about to start.
00:52:50Oh, the bitch is here!
00:52:52I know.
00:52:53Don't worry.
00:52:54We can teach him a lesson.
00:52:55Yeah, how?
00:52:56Let's see if Daniel can handle a little humiliation.
00:53:01With money.
00:53:02With money?
00:53:03What money?
00:53:04I haven't gotten my inheritance back yet.
00:53:05Yeah, I know.
00:53:06Your mother spoke to Richard.
00:53:07He said he's willing to donate us some cash if we make Jessica look ugly.
00:53:11Oh.
00:53:14You're the best.
00:53:17I know.

00:54:43There's a gentleman there.
00:54:52Where did you get that money from?
00:54:54Well, do you remember me telling you about I have a powerful friend?
00:54:58Yeah, the one who helped me find my mother.
00:55:04Jessica?
00:55:05James Thornton.
00:55:07In the flesh.
00:55:08Or Mrs. Thornton.
00:55:10I want to apologize to you.
00:55:12I am truly sorry for everything I did to you and your mother.
00:55:16But I'm trying my best to make amends.
00:55:19To make amends.
00:55:20Well, I don't know what to say.
00:55:24Jess, I know it's a lot to handle.
00:55:26You just gotta trust me.
00:55:27Yeah, but why didn't you just tell me in the first place, Daniel?
00:55:30Jess!
00:55:32Jessica!
00:55:33Don't follow me!
00:55:38Oh, this could get interesting.
00:55:41Uh-huh.
00:55:54Look who's alone.
00:55:56No, just leave me alone.
00:55:58You're never gonna win against James Thornton.
00:56:00He's my mother's best friend.
00:56:02You're gonna lose everything.
00:56:03Poor babe.
00:56:04Still played by the big boys.
00:56:06James Thornton and his son.
00:56:09I've been playing you all along.
00:56:11But...
00:56:12What did you just say?
00:56:13James Thornton and his son?
00:56:16Wait, Jess, you didn't know?
00:56:17Daniel Thornton is his son.
00:56:22Oh, my God.
00:56:23I didn't know that.
00:56:24But now that I do...
00:56:28That's enough!
00:56:29Oh!
00:56:30Excuse me, Mr. Thornton.
00:56:32Crown Prince Sarah to the Thornton family.
00:56:39This man's been lying to you all alone.
00:56:46Hmm, poor little girl's got no one to trust.
00:56:49Both of you, get out of here.
00:56:53Hey.
00:57:02Jess, I've been trying to tell you.
00:57:03Am I a joke?
00:57:04I don't pity you.
00:57:05No.
00:57:06What do you mean?
00:57:07You.
00:57:08And your father.
00:57:10You've been playing me this whole time.
00:57:12No.
00:57:13I've been standing by your side all the time, Jess.
00:57:16I can't...
00:57:17I can't trust you.
00:57:18You lied to me.
00:57:20You're right.
00:57:22You're right.
00:57:25I have been hiding things from you.
00:57:27You know what I haven't told you yet?
00:57:33Another big secret.
00:57:35Are you sure you want to hear this?
00:57:42The other big secret is...
00:57:44The first time we met is...
00:57:48It was five years ago.
00:57:50Five years ago?
00:57:51Yes.
00:57:53At a party.
00:57:54I was drunk and I fell in the pool.
00:58:06Oh, thank God you're alive.
00:58:12I was drowning and you saved my life.
00:58:15But you won't remember that.
00:58:18But I will forever be grateful for what you did for me that day.
00:58:21Father?
00:58:24That was you?
00:58:25Yes.
00:58:26My father forbid me from seeing you.
00:58:29But I didn't care.
00:58:31I confronted him.
00:58:33You can't tell me what to do, Dad!
00:58:34You can't stop me from seeing her!
00:58:36I'm doing what's best for you, Daniel.
00:58:38That girl and all her family are nothing but trouble.
00:58:43And then he decided to tell me about everything he did to you and your mom.
00:58:45And I felt so guilty.
00:58:47It's okay.
00:58:48I was ashamed to approach you.
00:58:50I just didn't know how to face you without making things worse.
00:58:52And I thought the best thing to do was just leave me alone.
00:58:55No, I know.
00:58:56And then I heard about you being deported and I just couldn't let that happen.
00:58:58Well...
00:58:59Okay.
00:59:00I saved you.
00:59:01And...
00:59:02You saved me.
00:59:03I guess we...
00:59:04just belong together.
00:59:05Okay.
00:59:06Okay?
00:59:07I...
00:59:08I saved you.
00:59:10And...
00:59:11you saved me.
00:59:14I guess we...
00:59:15just belong together.
00:59:17Okay?
00:59:20Eww.
00:59:21Corny.
00:59:24But just...
00:59:27No more secrets.
00:59:29Okay?
00:59:31I promise.
00:59:32No more secrets.
00:59:50You're up early.
00:59:52Yeah.
00:59:53I'm gonna go pick your mom up from the airport.
00:59:56Better sooner than later.
00:59:57I'm gonna go pick your mom up from the airport, and I'll bring you straight to the office.
01:00:17Thanks.
01:00:19You're the best.
01:00:25Well, that was better than I thought.
01:00:26Don't underestimate yourself, Jess.
01:00:29You did great.
01:00:34Hey, Jess.
01:00:35What are you doing here?
01:00:41What are you doing here?
01:00:42I just wanted to share with you some interesting facts about your dear husband, Daniel Thornton.
01:00:48Gianna, can you wait outside a moment?
01:00:54Okay, I'm telling you now.
01:00:57Whatever bad, made-up facts that you've come to tell me about Daniel, it's not going to work.
01:01:03Because Daniel already told me everything.
01:01:06Everything?
01:01:07Are you so sure?
01:01:08Yeah.
01:01:09Him and his father came clean about everything.
01:01:11There is nothing more to happen.
01:01:13And did they also tell you Daniel's supposed to marry his childhood sweetheart?
01:01:17What?
01:01:18Ashley Wimbledon.
01:01:19Heiress to the famous Wimbledon family.
01:01:21Ring any bells?
01:01:23Ashley.
01:01:27Ashley.
01:01:29Who is Ashley?
01:01:31I heard you guys talking about her earlier.
01:01:34Oh, she's just an old childhood friend.
01:01:38They grew up and went to law school together.
01:01:40Oh.
01:01:41And she had Daniel's first kiss.
01:01:47He did mention Ashley.
01:01:52He did?
01:01:54Yeah, but he's not going to marry her.
01:01:56I remember that conversation.
01:02:01Daniel's picking my mother up from the airport himself.
01:02:04I'll be seeing her soon.
01:02:05What are you laughing about?
01:02:13Daniel wants to bring her back, babe.
01:02:16You're not going to see her.
01:02:21After years of separation with your mother, Daniel didn't let you go along with him to meet with her?
01:02:26And what kind of a husband does that?
01:02:29I had an early meeting this morning, and Daniel didn't want me to worry.
01:02:33So easily manipulated, Jess.
01:02:37Just like old times.
01:02:39Yeah, well, I don't believe a word you say.
01:02:44Daniel isn't going to bring her back.
01:02:47Care to find out together?
01:02:48Yeah.
01:02:48Are you sure everything is taken care of?
01:02:58Yes.
01:02:59You're free to live in this country.
01:03:02Clara, I also want to apologize for everything you went through years ago.
01:03:06I'm deeply sorry.
01:03:07Well, you did bring me back here.
01:03:09Right now, I just want to see my daughter.
01:03:12We'll go, sir.
01:03:13Not so fast, Danny boy.
01:03:15You're too late, Lisa.
01:03:20Clara's here to claim Robert's inheritance back.
01:03:22Ooh, I don't think so.
01:03:24Agents, do you think?
01:03:26Wait.
01:03:26What?
01:03:27This is a mistake.
01:03:28No.
01:03:29Clara's got past customs.
01:03:30She can stay.
01:03:31Sweetheart, you really think those little documents can stop this?
01:03:35I don't think so.
01:03:36Back off, Lisa.
01:03:37Watch it, pretty boy.
01:03:39Jess.
01:03:39Jess!
01:03:40Mom!
01:03:40Mom!
01:03:41What are you doing?
01:03:43Jess.
01:03:43Where are they taking my mother?
01:03:44Mom, I will bring you back, I promise.
01:03:46Just stay strong.
01:03:48Sis, it looks like you've been screwed by the Thorntons again.
01:03:51Adrian, you sabotaged this.
01:03:53You'll pay for this.
01:03:54See, babe, I told you he's not bringing it back.
01:03:58You said everything was taken care of.
01:04:00Jess, it's not me.
01:04:01It's them.
01:04:02You're lying, Daniel.
01:04:03Why don't you ask him about that thing we talked about, Jess?
01:04:09Jess?
01:04:09He said that you were going to marry Ashley.
01:04:11Okay, so it's true.
01:04:14Jess, can we just talk about this?
01:04:17No.
01:04:17No, no, no, no, no.
01:04:18Thing is, Daniel, you promised me no more secrets.
01:04:22I can't trust you anymore.
01:04:23Jess!
01:04:24Can you...
01:04:25It's just, uh...
01:04:26Looks like you lost, Daniel.
01:04:28You'll never get in the back.
01:04:29Oh, thank God you're alive.
01:04:52Ted, what's the problem with Clara?
01:05:20Clara, her paperwork was flawless.
01:05:23You're right, boss.
01:05:24I check with customers in the U.S. CIS.
01:05:26The label confirmed that she illegally entered the country.
01:05:29Good.
01:05:30What is it, boss?
01:05:34Agents, do you think?
01:05:36Wait.
01:05:37What?
01:05:37This is a mistake.
01:05:38No.
01:05:40Jess.
01:05:41Jess, baby!
01:05:42Mom!
01:05:42The ICE agents weren't real.
01:05:48They were hired by Adrian and Lisa to kidnap Clara.
01:05:50Hold on, thanks.
01:05:54You're right, boss.
01:05:55We found out those people want to.
01:05:57What should we do?
01:05:59I need to find out where they took them.
01:06:01Use all our contacts.
01:06:03I'm not going to let them get away with this.
01:06:05On it, boss.
01:06:05Well, well, well, Clara.
01:06:16I bet you didn't expect to see me again, did you?
01:06:19We finally have what it takes to get it all back?
01:06:22Don't look at me like that.
01:06:24You disgust me.
01:06:31Jess, we need to talk.
01:06:32I don't want to talk to you.
01:06:34It's about your mom.
01:06:35I think she was kidnapped by Adrian and Lisa's people.
01:06:37The ICE agents weren't real.
01:06:40What are you talking about?
01:06:42I spoke to Ted.
01:06:43He told me that Clara legally came into the country.
01:06:47It was a setup.
01:06:48Do you actually expect me to believe that?
01:06:51After all the lies, you're so full of shit, Daniel!
01:07:01Hello, bastard child.
01:07:03Yes, we have your mother.
01:07:05And if you ever want to see her again, follow the directions to the address that we just sent you.
01:07:10And don't bring anyone.
01:07:12Especially Daniel.
01:07:16Let me come with you.
01:07:17No, they want me alone.
01:07:19I don't want to be scared.
01:07:19Jess?
01:07:20Don't follow me!
01:07:21I will not let you do this alone.
01:07:22Mom?
01:07:30Faster child, over here.
01:07:33You let her go.
01:07:34This has gone on far enough.
01:07:36Not so fast, this.
01:07:38This is only the beginning.
01:07:43You sign this,
01:07:45we let her go.
01:07:46And what is it?
01:07:49An agreement signing everything over to us.
01:07:52The house.
01:07:54Company.
01:07:56Everything.
01:08:04It's signed.
01:08:05No, let her go.
01:08:08God, you are so naive, sis.
01:08:11No, what more do you want?
01:08:14Get down on your knees and show that you know your place.
01:08:21Get down on your knees and show that you know your place.
01:08:26Wait.
01:08:26That's better.
01:08:39Now bark like a dog.
01:08:44Come on.
01:08:50That's enough, Kristen.
01:08:51We're getting out of here, Monk.
01:09:03Let's get her out of here.
01:09:04Come on, let's go.
01:09:06God, Daniel!
01:09:10Come on.
01:09:12Monk, he's finished with it.
01:09:14Monk, we gotta go.
01:09:15Come on.
01:09:16Daniel!
01:09:17Daniel!
01:09:21Jess.
01:09:25Don't, don't try and talk.
01:09:26The police, they're, they're on their way.
01:09:28Jess.
01:09:30I'm so sorry.
01:09:31Why are you apologizing?
01:09:33Just don't move.
01:09:44Well, the doctor said it was nothing serious, so
01:09:46you'll be out of here soon.
01:09:49Jess, I just want to apologize.
01:09:51I'm so sorry.
01:09:53Daniel, what are you apologizing for?
01:09:57You saved my mom.
01:09:58You saved us.
01:10:01Hello again, Mr. Thornton.
01:10:03Officer, you're here.
01:10:05Yes.
01:10:06You promised me last week we'd get that interview done.
01:10:11Officer, my husband is injured.
01:10:14He's literally lying in bed.
01:10:16Well, that doesn't change the requirements.
01:10:19Jess, it's okay.
01:10:22We can do the interview.
01:10:27We can do the interview.
01:10:30Are you insane?
01:10:32We haven't rehearsed this.
01:10:34Jess, when you see we've been rehearsing this whole Christmas, there's no better time to do this.
01:10:41You're right.
01:10:42You're right.
01:10:44We're ready, officer.
01:10:45Let's start with the question I asked you last week.
01:10:49When did you two first meet?
01:10:51Five years and four months ago.
01:10:53I don't understand.
01:10:55Last time you said it was six months ago, and the other one said it was eight months ago.
01:11:00We lied, officer.
01:11:01Officer, but it was five years ago at a pool party.
01:11:06And we had our first kiss when we first met.
01:11:08It sounds pretty far-fetched.
01:11:14But for some reason, I want to give you two the benefit of the doubt.
01:11:18Daniel risked his life to save me and my mother.
01:11:32There's nothing more that he needs to do to prove his love for me.
01:11:35One last question.
01:11:38How frequently have you two spent the night together in the past week?
01:11:48Relax.
01:11:49I can tell it's been at least three times.
01:11:52Right.
01:11:53Well, that's my interview done.
01:11:55You two are quite the couple.
01:11:57Thank you, officer.
01:11:59Daniel.
01:12:00Daniel.
01:12:01She's coming.
01:12:02Who's coming?
01:12:05Your fiancée.
01:12:11That's who.
01:12:16Your fiancée.
01:12:18That's who.
01:12:20Ashley.
01:12:21I guess I'm not done yet.
01:12:23You betrayed my family's trust, Daniel.
01:12:27Ashley.
01:12:28Please.
01:12:29Can't we talk about this?
01:12:30So you're Jessica Miller, huh?
01:12:33Adrian's told me all about you.
01:12:36I don't know what Adrian told you, but it's not what you think.
01:12:41Daniel was supposed to marry me.
01:12:44And then you just waltzed in and ruined everything.
01:12:48Ashley.
01:12:49Our engagement was long over before Jessica came to the picture.
01:12:52Oh, I see.
01:12:57You think this is over.
01:13:01I'm the heiress of the Wimbledon family.
01:13:04The Thornton name is as good as ruined.
01:13:09You can't do that, Ashley.
01:13:14Watch me.
01:13:15You're not the only heiress here.
01:13:25I own Miller Empire.
01:13:29And if you come for the Thorntons,
01:13:32the Miller Empire is going to come for you so hard.
01:13:37You've got guts, Jessica.
01:13:44I like you.
01:13:47I gotta tell you, I didn't expect that.
01:13:51This is so much better than watching TV.
01:13:53Glad to see you've replaced me with someone with a little fire, Daniel.
01:13:56I always knew Daniel didn't love me,
01:14:04but he was too afraid of his father to ever go after his true love.
01:14:09But I guess I'm happy that he's found someone who wants the same things as him.
01:14:20So...
01:14:20That's it?
01:14:23That's it.
01:14:26Enjoy your happy ending, darling.
01:14:33Andrea, bring the car around.
01:14:38Did that actually just happen?
01:14:40Yeah.
01:14:42Wow.
01:14:43You two really don't let anyone or anything get in the way of true love.
01:14:48You see that, Tony?
01:14:52This is all your fault, Mom.
01:14:54If you wouldn't have been so reckless,
01:14:55then maybe you wouldn't be in this mess.
01:14:56Don't put all the blame on me.
01:14:58You're just as much a part of this as I am.
01:15:00Where is Adrian?
01:15:01You should be here by now.
01:15:04Miss me?
01:15:05Where have you been?
01:15:06Just tying up a few loose ends.
01:15:08Don't worry about it.
01:15:10Everything's going according to plan.
01:15:12Plan?
01:15:12What plan?
01:15:14Everything's falling apart.
01:15:15What did you do, Adrian?
01:15:27Well, me, myself, I done nothing illegal.
01:15:31You two, on the other hand, that's a different story.
01:15:35You set us up!
01:15:36I'm just ensuring my own safety.
01:15:39After all, I kept my hands clean.
01:15:47You're not going to get away with this, asshole!
01:15:49I already have.
01:15:51I already have.
01:15:54Hmm.
01:15:55I remember when this place was filled with warmth and laughter.
01:16:02It used to be a real family home back then.
01:16:06Then things just went south.
01:16:08Things will be fine again, Mom, I promise.
01:16:11We'll turn this into a good family house.
01:16:13No more hatred.
01:16:15No more backstabbing.
01:16:16Oh, I missed you every single day, Jess.
01:16:19I'm so sorry for everything both of us had to go through.
01:16:26Jessica?
01:16:27Well?
01:16:29I am so sorry for everything I've done to you both.
01:16:34I was wrong.
01:16:36And I know I can never fully make up for it.
01:16:39But I want to try.
01:16:40James, you kept us apart for so many years.
01:16:44It's going to be hard to forgive and forget.
01:16:46I know what I am.
01:16:50Jess, are you all right?
01:16:54Yeah, no, I'm...
01:16:56I'm fine.
01:16:58You know, I just feel...
01:17:00I just feel nauseous, that's all.
01:17:03Have you been getting any other symptoms, like...
01:17:06dizziness or fatigue?
01:17:08Well, yeah, but I just thought that was...
01:17:10from all the stress.
01:17:11Oh.
01:17:15Sweetheart.
01:17:16You're pregnant.
01:17:18Really?
01:17:19You're showing all the signs, Jess.
01:17:23We're going to have a baby.
01:17:25Wait.
01:17:27That means I'm going to be a grandpa.
01:17:30Yeah.
01:17:31Yeah.
01:17:32Daniel.
01:17:33There's something you need to do.
01:17:46What's this?
01:17:48This is a ring your grandma left.
01:17:51And I think this is the perfect time to use it.
01:17:55Go, grandma.
01:17:56You're going to do this?
01:17:57Yeah.
01:17:58Go.
01:17:58No.
01:18:08Jess.
01:18:09Jess.
01:18:11What?
01:18:13Jess, I know we've only ever spent time together a week during Christmas.
01:18:17And we've been through so much in that time.
01:18:19And over the past five years, all I've wanted to do is be with you.
01:18:24And I've had to endure the pain of that not being possible.
01:18:27I want to spend every waking moment in time with you.
01:18:30What I'm trying to say is, Jess, will you marry me?
01:18:40For real this time?
01:18:43Yes, Daniel.
01:18:44Yes, I will marry you.
01:18:45Yes.
01:18:46Really?
01:18:46Yes.
01:18:47Yes.
01:18:47Yes.
01:18:48Yes.
01:18:48Yes.
01:18:49Yes.
01:18:50Yes.
01:18:50Yes.
01:18:51Yes.
01:18:51Yes.
01:18:52Yes.
01:18:52Yes.
01:18:53Yes.
01:18:53Yes.
01:18:54Yes.
01:18:55Yes.
01:18:55Yes.
01:18:56Yes.
01:18:56Yes.
01:18:57Yes.
01:18:57Yes.
01:18:58Yes.
01:18:58Yes.
01:18:59Yes.
01:18:59Yes.
01:19:00Yes.
01:19:00Yes.
01:19:01Yes.
01:19:01Yes.
01:19:02Yes.
01:19:03Yes.
01:19:04Yes.
01:19:05Yes.
01:19:06Yes.
01:19:07Yes.
01:19:08Yes.
01:19:09Yes.
01:19:10Yes.
01:19:11Yes.
01:19:12Yes.
01:19:13Yes.
01:19:14Yes.
