00:00:00Cheers.
00:00:05May I be full of surprises?
00:00:07Ho, ho, ho!
00:00:08I have a gift for you.
00:00:10Jessica, you have inherited this mansion,
00:00:13along with your father's business empire and assets worth over a billion dollars.
00:00:18I just need a signature from you.
00:00:20Oh, and 105 million dollars in cash.
00:00:27We're rich!
00:00:28Let me hold on to you for your baby.
00:00:31Yeah.
00:00:32You know, my whole life, I grew up in foster care.
00:00:37Moving from place to place, and now I finally have a place that I can call home.
00:00:44It was real great to win the jackpot.
00:00:45Now my only wish is to reunite with my mother.
00:00:50You bastard child!
00:00:52You will never reunite with your mother.
00:00:54We made sure that that whore is gone forever.
00:00:57My mother is gone because of you?
00:01:00Well, we had a little help from James Thornton,
00:01:03the most powerful man in the Thornton family.
00:01:07Time for you to go back to your poor little country, sis.
00:01:10Yes, your mother?
00:01:11USCIS.
00:01:12Your visa were expired years ago.
00:01:14You're being deported.
00:01:15What?
00:01:15No, there must be some mistake here.
00:01:18Adrian, didn't you help me file my immigration paperwork?
00:01:21Whoops.
00:01:22Well, I guess I screwed up.
00:01:24What?
00:01:26Hey, baby.
00:01:28Hey.
00:01:29Adrian, are you cheating on me?
00:01:31With her?
00:01:32Choose the right side, babe.
00:01:34You'll never win against them.
00:01:35That's true.
00:01:36Um, according to the terms of the will,
00:01:39non-citizens are not eligible to inherit the estate.
00:01:43Everything will pass to your next of kin,
00:01:45Lisa and Kristen Miller.
00:01:48You thought you could get rich overnight?
00:01:51Keep dreaming.
00:01:53Seriously?
00:01:54Bon voyage, have, sis.
00:01:55The boss is a surgeon.
00:02:05They're about to deport a woman named Jessica Miller.
00:02:08Jessica Miller?
00:02:11It's her.
00:02:20Oh, thank God you're alive.
00:02:22She's so beautiful and kind.
00:02:23The girl I've always dreamed of.
00:02:25She saved my life once.
00:02:28I owe her.
00:02:32Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.
00:02:34Jessica?
00:02:36Do I know this?
00:02:37She doesn't remember me.
00:02:43I'm Daniel.
00:02:45You're a lawyer.
00:02:46Just pretend we know each other.
00:02:47I can get you out of here.
00:02:49We've spoken to the judge,
00:02:50and Miss Miller should be released immediately.
00:02:52We can't deport her.
00:02:55She is about to marry you a citizen.
00:03:00Who's the lucky guy?
00:03:01I am.
00:03:02I marry her.
00:03:03A fake marriage won't save her.
00:03:12Our marriage is real.
00:03:13Mm-hmm.
00:03:14Yeah.
00:03:14A hundred percent real.
00:03:16Prove it then.
00:03:24That's it?
00:03:25You call that a kiss?
00:03:26Shh.
00:03:27Shh.
00:03:29Shh.
00:03:38Need more proof, officer?
00:03:40Look, this guy is a lawyer
00:03:42to some of the most important families in town.
00:03:45And if you don't let her go,
00:03:47then he'll make sure you lose your damn job.
00:03:49Fine.
00:03:49You can have her.
00:03:49Thank you, officer.
00:03:51Guys, I think we're good.
00:03:59It's not over.
00:04:03We'll be checking your marital status
00:04:04and conducting interviews.
00:04:06And there are a few very specific requirements
00:04:08you should know.
00:04:10Make sure you two are staying in the same house
00:04:12and sleeping in the same bed.
00:04:14Or it's game over.
00:04:15To help me deal with my stepsister and her mom.
00:04:22They're trying to get rid of me.
00:04:24And they've already stolen my fortune.
00:04:27And they made my mother disappear.
00:04:31Deal.
00:04:33What?
00:04:35That's it?
00:04:38This lily stands for loyalties and new beginnings.
00:04:42Something that I want with you.
00:04:43Now, I know it's rushed.
00:04:47But I promise you,
00:04:49I will buy you a proper ring soon.
00:05:00From now on,
00:05:01let's make every Christmas our own
00:05:03to fill it full of memories.
00:05:13You can't do this!
00:05:19Jess, it's okay.
00:05:21Just wait here.
00:05:22I'll handle it.
00:05:26What?
00:05:29What?
00:05:31Why are you helping that girl?
00:05:33Kristen Miller is our ally.
00:05:34And she wants her the hell out of this picture.
00:05:37It's too late, Dad.
00:05:38We already got married.
00:05:39Are you insane?
00:05:41Did you forget you're supposed to marry Ashley?
00:05:46Daniel Thornton.
00:05:49My mother is gone because of you?
00:05:51Well, we had a little help from James Thornton,
00:05:55the most powerful man in the Thornton family.
00:05:58Boy, I recognize that face from the newspaper.
00:06:02That was James Thornton.
00:06:05From the Thornton family.
00:06:06The family responsible for my mother's disappearance.
00:06:14Stop telling me what I can and cannot do.
00:06:16She saved my life.
00:06:17I owe it to her.
00:06:18Roll the hell up, Daniel.
00:06:20You need to remember your position
00:06:22as the heir to our family.
00:06:24And you need to divorce that girl.
00:06:26Now, I'm doing this
00:06:28to clean your mess up.
00:06:30Just leave us alone.
00:06:31Sorry about that.
00:06:40Is your name
00:06:41Daniel Thornton?
00:06:45Yeah.
00:06:47The Thornton family
00:06:48are responsible for the disappearance
00:06:50of my mother.
00:06:51I have been searching for her
00:06:53my entire life.
00:06:56Jess.
00:06:57No.
00:06:57I can explain.
00:06:58I'm not marrying Thornton.
00:06:59Wait, wait, wait.
00:07:00Jess, Jess.
00:07:01I'm not who you think I am.
00:07:03I have nothing to do with that family.
00:07:05Oh, really?
00:07:05Because your name is right here
00:07:06on the marriage stick.
00:07:10I share the last name as Thornton
00:07:11and I am not one of them.
00:07:13Thornton is a common name.
00:07:15Just an ordinary girl.
00:07:16Really?
00:07:17Well, I don't believe you.
00:07:18I saw you talking to James Thornton.
00:07:21Is he your father?
00:07:26Is he your father?
00:07:27No, he's not my father.
00:07:29He was threatening to drive you
00:07:30out of the country
00:07:30and I was not going to have
00:07:31anything to do with it.
00:07:32Jess, I'm on your side.
00:07:35You're not one of them.
00:07:37I'm sorry.
00:07:41It's okay.
00:07:43Don't worry about it.
00:07:47Well, you have a nice apartment.
00:07:51Welcome.
00:07:53Is that your Labrador?
00:07:55That looks exactly like mine.
00:07:56I got mine as a Christmas present
00:07:57when I was nine.
00:07:58No way.
00:08:00I got mine as a Christmas present
00:08:01when I was nine.
00:08:02That's crazy.
00:08:07Jess, we're going to have to sleep
00:08:08in the same room together
00:08:09just in case immigration ambush us.
00:08:11Yeah, but...
00:08:12Are you sure you're okay
00:08:14sleeping on the carpet?
00:08:15I mean, you've...
00:08:16You've done so much for me already
00:08:18and I just...
00:08:18Jess, please.
00:08:19I insist.
00:08:20We made a deal, remember.
00:08:22I also want to thank you
00:08:24for giving me the chance
00:08:26to get rich.
00:08:28It's okay, Daniel.
00:08:29It's okay, Daniel.
00:08:49She's fine, honey.
00:09:04No.
00:09:06No, no, no, no.
00:09:07I was...
00:09:08I was just passing by
00:09:10and just...
00:09:11Do you need anything?
00:09:13I was joking.
00:09:14Yeah, could you pass me the towel
00:09:17that's just hanging up
00:09:19next to the door?
00:09:20Yeah, sure, sure.
00:09:25Dang.
00:09:36Oh, my God.
00:09:37What?
00:09:37I just got fired.
00:09:38What?
00:09:41Wait, Jess,
00:09:42let me go with you.
00:09:44What?
00:09:47Yeah.
00:09:58Sam, please,
00:09:59don't fire me.
00:10:00I'm sorry, Jess,
00:10:02but your immigration issue
00:10:05put us in a tough spot.
00:10:06I worked for this company
00:10:08for years.
00:10:10I'm sorry, Jess.
00:10:11There's nothing I can do.
00:10:13I'm sorry.
00:10:20Look who's here.
00:10:22Someone who just got fired.
00:10:25This suits you.
00:10:26It was you.
00:10:32I should have known you were behind this.
00:10:35I'm not going to let you stay here
00:10:36and ruin things.
00:10:37I'm going to take away everything you have, sister.
00:10:40You just made a big mistake, sir.
00:10:46Who are you?
00:10:47My name is Daniel Thornton,
00:10:50son of James Thornton,
00:10:52the chairman of Thornton Enterprise.
00:10:54Oh,
00:10:55Mr. Thornton,
00:10:56Mr. Thornton,
00:10:58welcome.
00:11:00What brings you here?
00:11:02Well,
00:11:03I have some good news for you.
00:11:06Jessica Miller,
00:11:07she's just closed a billion dollar deal.
00:11:11Take a look.
00:11:12Oh, my God.
00:11:28It's real.
00:11:30Absolutely.
00:11:31With her hard work and dedication,
00:11:33she's made this possible.
00:11:34It's a real shame
00:11:36you're going to lose
00:11:37such a valuable employee.
00:11:39Oh,
00:11:39Mr. Thornton,
00:11:41I have made a huge mistake.
00:11:45Jessica will stay.
00:11:48Good.
00:11:50And,
00:11:51make sure nobody knows
00:11:53we had this conversation.
00:11:58Jessica,
00:12:00you should have told me.
00:12:04What are you talking about, Sam?
00:12:08Jessica,
00:12:09you secured a huge deal
00:12:11for the company.
00:12:14Did you not just fire her?
00:12:16I changed my mind.
00:12:18Jessica's saying,
00:12:20actually,
00:12:21she's being promoted
00:12:22to sales manager.
00:12:25Can't afford to lose someone
00:12:26as valuable as like her?
00:12:28Great.
00:12:30Thanks, Sam.
00:12:32This
00:12:32is not over.
00:12:34I can't believe it.
00:12:39Jessica kept her job
00:12:40and she gets promoted.
00:12:42Don't worry, Lisa.
00:12:43I just spoke with James Thornton
00:12:45and he had the lawyer
00:12:46change the will
00:12:47in our favor.
00:12:49Jessica will get nothing.
00:12:51Oh, my God.
00:12:53That's fantastic.
00:12:54Fantastic.
00:12:54No way.
00:13:14Jessica,
00:13:14how's work?
00:13:16Did you get your job back?
00:13:18Daniel,
00:13:19I need a lawyer.
00:13:20I need a lawyer.
00:13:27Well,
00:13:28look who decided
00:13:29to show up.
00:13:31Too bad for you.
00:13:32Just turns out
00:13:32daddy's will
00:13:33left you nothing.
00:13:35I knew all along
00:13:37Robert wouldn't leave
00:13:37anything
00:13:38for this little
00:13:39pathetic
00:13:40bastard child.
00:13:42You are out of luck.
00:13:44Well, that's a lie.
00:13:46You showed me the will
00:13:47and I signed the documents.
00:13:50I'm sorry, Jessica.
00:13:52I've just discovered
00:13:53a revised will.
00:13:54It supports Kristen
00:13:56and Lisa's claims.
00:14:00Who is this?
00:14:02he's my lawyer
00:14:03and a damn good one.
00:14:05Oh.
00:14:06You know, Jess,
00:14:07I didn't realize
00:14:07you had enough money
00:14:08to pay for a fancy
00:14:09little lawyer.
00:14:11You sleep with them?
00:14:13Patrick,
00:14:14can I have a word
00:14:15with you outside?
00:14:17Talk all you want.
00:14:18It won't change anything.
00:14:28All right, Patrick.
00:14:29I'm going to keep
00:14:31this short and sweet.
00:14:32I know you changed
00:14:32the will to favor
00:14:33Kristen and Lisa.
00:14:35I know what you're
00:14:35talking about,
00:14:36Mr. Thornton.
00:14:37The revised will
00:14:38solid.
00:14:39Ted found an email
00:14:40exchange with my father.
00:14:42Here, take a look.
00:14:44You've been caught, Patrick.
00:14:46Honor of the will,
00:14:47I'll report you
00:14:48to the Bar Association.
00:14:49You'll lose your license
00:14:50and any chance
00:14:51of practicing law again.
00:14:52That goes against
00:14:53your father's wishes.
00:14:55You don't understand
00:14:55the position you put me in.
00:14:56I'll deal with my father.
00:14:58Don't you worry about that.
00:15:00You just worry about
00:15:02doing the right thing.
00:15:07Um,
00:15:08this revised will is a fake.
00:15:10The original will stand.
00:15:11What the hell are you doing?
00:15:13He's doing the right thing.
00:15:17Jessica,
00:15:18you've got your inheritance back.
00:15:20Congratulations.
00:15:20Oh, my God.
00:15:22Patrick, do what you are
00:15:27supposed to do
00:15:28or James will make sure
00:15:30you face the consequences.
00:15:34Don't listen to it, Patrick.
00:15:36I'll deal with James Thornton.
00:15:38Who the hell do you think you are?
00:15:41James Thornton is one of the most
00:15:42powerful men in this town.
00:15:45I sure can.
00:15:45Isn't that right, Patrick?
00:15:48Yes.
00:15:49The original will stands.
00:15:50No, you are crazy.
00:15:52No, I'm not.
00:15:53According to the original will,
00:15:55Jessica stands to inherit this mansion.
00:15:58Kristen,
00:15:59you're out.
00:16:00I think you two should leave.
00:16:02You homewrecker.
00:16:03Just like your mother.
00:16:05I will not allow violence.
00:16:08I didn't come here to argue
00:16:11over a house
00:16:12and assets.
00:16:14I came here to be recognized
00:16:15as an actual member
00:16:17of this family.
00:16:18Yeah, well, it's easy for you
00:16:19to say you're getting everything.
00:16:20You don't know how lucky you are, Lisa.
00:16:22You grew up with a father
00:16:24who loved you.
00:16:25I had none.
00:16:26And you took my mother away from me
00:16:29and I still don't know where she is.
00:16:32You two don't deserve this mansion.
00:16:35And I would rather
00:16:36give it away to a charity
00:16:37than to see the two of you living in.
00:16:47You two should pack your things up.
00:16:49You have one week to leave this house.
00:16:51Don't listen to it.
00:16:56What the hell were you thinking?
00:17:03Sabotaging my plan?
00:17:04I was just doing the right thing.
00:17:06The right thing?
00:17:08Going against me?
00:17:10Kristen Miller has got no power anymore.
00:17:12Her game is over.
00:17:13I'm sure you didn't come all this way
00:17:16just to argue with me.
00:17:17So what do you want?
00:17:20I just want Jessica to get her mom back.
00:17:24Interesting.
00:17:26What's in it for me?
00:17:30Once Jessica gets her mom back
00:17:31I'll do whatever you want.
00:17:34Whatever I want?
00:17:36Like what exactly?
00:17:38I'll marry Ashley.
00:17:42You'll marry Ashley?
00:17:44Yeah.
00:17:45You're willing to do that?
00:17:47Yeah.
00:17:47I am.
00:17:50But only if she's reunited with her mother.
00:17:52Okay.
00:17:55Deal.
00:17:57I'll make the arrangements.
00:17:59So you're really in love with this one, huh?
00:18:01Yeah.
00:18:03I am.
00:18:05Okay, kid.
00:18:07I sure hope she's working.
00:18:09She is.
00:18:10What's wrong?
00:18:15We have...
00:18:16We have...
00:18:17A guest.
00:18:20Mr. Thornton.
00:18:21Good to see you again.
00:18:23Interview time.
00:18:25Great.
00:18:27You're...
00:18:28When did you two meet?
00:18:31Uh...
00:18:32We met at a friend's party two years ago.
00:18:34What do you say, Jessica?
00:18:37Hmm?
00:18:38Oh, yeah.
00:18:39Yeah.
00:18:40Mm-hmm.
00:18:41Interesting.
00:18:43And when did you decide to get married?
00:18:45Eight months ago.
00:18:46Six months ago.
00:18:48Six months or eight months?
00:18:49Which one is it?
00:18:50Yeah.
00:18:50Eight months ago.
00:18:51Sorry, I just...
00:18:52Sorry, I'm always getting mixed up.
00:18:55Sure.
00:18:56Easy mistake to make.
00:18:59And what's your anniversary date?
00:19:01March 15th.
00:19:02March 15th.
00:19:05All right.
00:19:10Uh...
00:19:11That's it?
00:19:12Yes, Mr. Thornton.
00:19:14I have everything I need.
00:19:15I'll report back to the judges.
00:19:20Oh, wait.
00:19:22Uh...
00:19:22This.
00:19:25How did we do in there?
00:19:29It was...
00:19:31Pretty bad.
00:19:33Look.
00:19:35I'm the son of James Thornton.
00:19:37I know who you are.
00:19:40Okay.
00:19:43You want to bribe me?
00:19:46Yes.
00:19:47I can't be bribed.
00:19:49Here's one million dollars.
00:19:55Two million dollars.
00:19:56Right.
00:20:02Three.
00:20:03Million dollars.
00:20:04It's tempting.
00:20:05But like I said, you can't bribe me.
00:20:07Please.
00:20:08Can you just give us one more week to prepare?
00:20:11I really want to be with this woman.
00:20:13She means the world to me.
00:20:15She saved my life.
00:20:17I'm not going to take your money, but I'll give you one week.
00:20:20Make it count.
00:20:22Next time, I want to see some genuine affection between you two.
00:20:25Yeah.
00:20:26If anything seems a bit off, your game's up.
00:20:28Of course.
00:20:30And one more thing.
00:20:32I can tell you two haven't had sex yet.
00:20:35I'm that good, Mr. Daniel.
00:20:38Don't try and fool me.
00:20:39She gave us another chance.
00:20:47Oh, thank God.
00:20:48We have one week to get our story straight.
00:20:51Thank you, Daniel.
00:20:54You've been very, very helpful today.
00:20:57Now, I wanted to make our first Christmas special, so I did a little digging and I found this.
00:21:21This tree is amazing.
00:21:22What happened?
00:21:31Let me have a look.
00:21:52Um, I have a festive gift for you two.
00:22:12Wow.
00:22:15Jess, you look gorgeous.
00:22:17And then I told him that's not how you negotiate.
00:22:26You did it.
00:22:27You did.
00:22:27You did.
00:22:28You did.
00:22:28You did.
00:22:28Yeah.
00:22:28Yeah.
00:22:38Yeah.
00:22:40Ooh.
00:22:41Sorry.
00:22:41I'm sorry.
00:22:42Yeah.
00:22:43I'm sorry.
00:22:45I'm sorry.
00:22:46I'm sorry.
00:22:47Bye-bye.
00:22:55Bye-bye.
00:22:56Bye.
00:22:57This could be wrong
00:23:11Maybe
00:23:12Maybe not
00:23:27So that is how you make a shit
00:23:34You're an only fan
00:23:51You can't stop
00:23:53Hold on, I've got this
00:23:55Uh, oh
00:24:25Oh, that much looks familiar
00:24:54You know, I've seen this before
00:24:59In the, uh, in a magazine
00:25:00It looks like one of those, um
00:25:04Fontaine family
00:25:07Watches
00:25:09Is it real?
00:25:10Uh, no
00:25:12It's fake
00:25:13You wear a fake watch
00:25:19Yeah
00:25:20I'm so happy, Jess
00:25:33There's also something I need to tell you about your mom
00:25:41Oh my god
00:25:58Did I just sleep with Daniel last night?
00:26:01I told him it would only be a contract marriage
00:26:04Morning
00:26:13This is the most beautiful morning that I've ever had
00:26:16Daniel, I'm
00:26:18I'm so sorry about last night
00:26:22It was, it wasn't supposed to happen
00:26:24And I promise it will never happen again
00:26:27She didn't mean it
00:26:32Oh, Jessica
00:26:33Last night was amazing
00:26:35Uh, yeah, Jess
00:26:39Uh, I get it
00:26:41It was, uh
00:26:42It was a one-time thing
00:26:45Yeah, just like
00:26:47Just a one-time thing
00:26:49Yeah
00:26:50Anyway
00:26:52It's, uh
00:26:54It's your big day today
00:26:55You're the new CEO of the Miller Empire
00:26:58Thank you
00:27:01For the reminder
00:27:02Now that you mention it
00:27:06I'm really scared
00:27:07Oh, no, Jess
00:27:09I didn't mean it like that
00:27:11What I was meant to say is
00:27:14I'm gonna help you
00:27:22I don't know what to do, Mother
00:27:24That bitch is kicking us out
00:27:25We still have a chance
00:27:26That bastard child needs a unanimous vote from the board
00:27:30To be chosen as the next CEO
00:27:32So we just need a board member to back this up
00:27:36I 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
00:27:52These clothes are beautiful
00:28:01But, uh
00:28:02Very expensive
00:28:04Like this one
00:28:06That is
00:28:07Nine thousand dollars
00:28:10Jess
00:28:11Don't worry about it
00:28:12It's on me
00:28:14Look at it as, uh
00:28:15My first gift to my wife
00:28:18You know what?
00:28:19Daniel, I can't let you pay for this
00:28:20Look, Jess
00:28:21You're gonna be a CEO
00:28:23Which means
00:28:24You've gotta look the part
00:28:25Trust me
00:28:26It's an investment
00:28:27Mr. Thornton
00:28:30Welcome back
00:28:31How can I assist you today?
00:28:33Come here a lot?
00:28:34Uh, no
00:28:35Well, of course
00:28:36Mr. Thornton owns this store
00:28:38Uh
00:28:39Jess, why don't you try this one on?
00:28:42You'll look great
00:28:43Wow
00:28:49Jess, you look
00:28:50Amazing
00:28:52You think so?
00:28:54Yeah
00:28:55This is exactly what a CEO would wear
00:28:58Absolutely
00:28:59Great choice
00:29:00We'll take this one
00:29:02Something on your mind?
00:29:06Well, it's probably nothing
00:29:08But it's just
00:29:08That clerk seemed very fond of you
00:29:11Oh, uh
00:29:13Being friendly is a part of my job
00:29:15Okay
00:29:17Okay
00:29:17So that's how you got your lawyer, huh?
00:29:27Now that you mention it
00:29:29Maybe she wasn't a little friendly
00:29:31But we got a discount
00:29:33Show on
00:29:35What a slut
00:29:44Trust me, Jess
00:29:51You can do this
00:29:52Yeah, but what if they don't accept me?
00:29:54They will
00:29:55Trust me
00:29:56Just speak from the heart
00:29:57And show your true self
00:29:58Look at you two little lovebirds
00:30:02Pathetic
00:30:05Ted
00:30:09Can we talk about this later?
00:30:11Okay
00:30:11You go in
00:30:14I'll meet you in there soon
00:30:15Okay
00:30:15Good luck in there, sis
00:30:23You're gonna need it
00:30:26You don't have the votes
00:30:28I know my background
00:30:34Doesn't seem very typical
00:30:35Of a CEO
00:30:36But I built myself
00:30:38From the bottom up here
00:30:39Miller Corporation
00:30:41Is a leader
00:30:42In tech
00:30:44And services
00:30:46Reaching industries
00:30:47From healthcare
00:30:48To energy
00:30:49We have over
00:30:5010,000 employees
00:30:52Worldwide
00:30:54Who've worked hard
00:30:56To build this company
00:30:57From the ground up
00:30:58And I was one of them
00:30:59I know them
00:31:00And I believe that
00:31:02I can help lead this company
00:31:04To become
00:31:04Everyone's company
00:31:06Let's proceed to the vote
00:31:08All in favor?
00:31:14Robert lost his damn mind
00:31:16He picked his secret child
00:31:17To be the CEO
00:31:19Only because of his guilty conscience
00:31:21Richard, if I may
00:31:23I'm not done talking
00:31:24You can't lead us
00:31:26And you're not getting my vote
00:31:28Richard, if I may speak
00:31:32Go ahead
00:31:33But I won't change my mind
00:31:35Sorry for interrupting everyone
00:31:40But I have something important
00:31:42To share with you all today
00:31:43Who the hell are you?
00:31:45Well, Richard
00:31:45I'm the person
00:31:46Who's going to expose you
00:31:48What did you just say?
00:31:51How do I say this?
00:31:52Uh, you're a sex pervert
00:31:54What?
00:31:59You see, everyone
00:32:01This file
00:32:02Contains multiple sexual harassment lawsuits
00:32:06Against Richard
00:32:07Over the past 30 years
00:32:09Some of them
00:32:11Also have ongoing lawsuits
00:32:13They're all just allegations
00:32:15And they've all been settled
00:32:16I'm innocent
00:32:17We've also got in contact
00:32:19With some of the victims
00:32:19And they're willing to come forward
00:32:20And testify
00:32:21Actually
00:32:21I have not finished yet
00:32:23You're also stealing money
00:32:25From the company
00:32:26And we have the financial records
00:32:28To prove it
00:32:29The evidence is clear
00:32:35He's guilty
00:32:37Okay, then
00:32:39Let's all vote
00:32:41For Richard Donnell's
00:32:42Immediate suspension
00:32:43All in favor?
00:32:49We have 15 votes
00:32:51The board has decided
00:32:53Richard Donnell is officially removed
00:32:55From his position
00:32:56Security
00:32:58Escort him out immediately
00:33:00I know my way
00:33:01And all in favor of appointing
00:33:09Jessica Miller
00:33:10As the new CEO
00:33:11I'm sorry, I was late
00:33:29I had to make sure
00:33:30I had enough evidence
00:33:31To nail him
00:33:31No, don't be sorry, Daniel
00:33:33That was so worth the wait
00:33:35Good
00:33:35This is not over
00:33:39You'll see
00:33:40How's packing going, Lisa?
00:33:42You're about to be evicted, sir
00:33:43Bye-bye-bye
00:33:45She won again, that bitch
00:33:52I know, it's so unfair
00:33:53Do we have a guest?
00:33:56Lisa, honey
00:33:57I've been trying to reach you
00:33:58Why haven't you returned my calls?
00:34:01I've been busy
00:34:02Busy
00:34:03Dealing with Jessica
00:34:05How did you know?
00:34:07Oh, I know
00:34:07And I think I know how to help you take it down
00:34:09Again
00:34:11No use to me anymore, Adrian
00:34:14I only needed you to help me get rid of Jessica
00:34:16To the new CEO of the Miller Empire
00:34:21Well, I couldn't have done it without you, Daniel
00:34:26I also have another Christmas surprise for you
00:34:29Who are you calling?
00:34:31Who are you calling?
00:34:35Is it?
00:34:36Yes, Jess
00:34:37It's your mother, Clara
00:34:38Oh, my God
00:34:40Mom
00:34:41Oh, Jessica
00:34:42You're a grown woman now
00:34:44The Miller family threatened to kill you, Jess
00:34:47I had no option but to vanish
00:34:49Oh, Mom
00:34:52It's okay
00:34:53It's okay
00:34:54You didn't do anything wrong
00:34:55I'll bring you back into the country
00:34:57I promised
00:34:58Daniel, how did you find her?
00:35:01I have a few powerful friends
00:35:03They did me a favor
00:35:04But I'll leave you two alone
00:35:07Two more, please
00:35:19Daniel
00:35:23Adrian
00:35:25Long time no see, buddy
00:35:27Oh, my God
00:35:28How long has it been?
00:35:30Ten years
00:35:31Ten years
00:35:32Oh, my God
00:35:34The last time I must have seen you was
00:35:36Law school
00:35:37Yep
00:35:38Go Reds
00:35:40Go Reds
00:35:42What are you doing here?
00:35:45Just in town to run some errands
00:35:47Just about to come here for a quick bite
00:35:49Nice, man, nice
00:35:50I saw your date earlier
00:35:53She looks pretty
00:35:54Yeah, my wife
00:35:55Your wife?
00:35:57Yeah, Jess
00:35:58You're married?
00:35:59Yes
00:35:59Yeah, you have to introduce me to her
00:36:02Come on, let's go say hi
00:36:03Come and say hello
00:36:04It's good to see you, buddy
00:36:06Good to see you, too, man
00:36:06Jess
00:36:08I wanted you to meet an old friend of mine
00:36:10Adrian, this is Jess
00:36:11Jess, this is Adrian
00:36:13We went to law school together
00:36:14I don't want to see him
00:36:21I don't want to see him
00:36:27You two know each other
00:36:30Yes, Daniel
00:36:31I was her first boyfriend
00:36:34Come on, Jess
00:36:38Don't you miss me?
00:36:40I don't want to see you
00:36:42Anymore
00:36:42You know you're still in love with me, Jess
00:36:45No, I don't
00:36:46I think you should leave, Adrian
00:36:52Okay, Daniel
00:36:53Relax
00:36:54Now
00:36:55I'm leaving
00:37:01She knows she's lying
00:37:07I should have known
00:37:14I should have known
00:37:14What else?
00:37:15He also used me, Jessica
00:37:17Actually, he's the one who sabotaged Jessica's immigration paperwork
00:37:23It caused all this trouble
00:37:24He's the one who sabotaged Jessica's immigration paperwork and caused all this trouble.
00:37:33That son of a bitch. We need to win this war. Do whatever it takes.
00:37:46Daniel?
00:37:48Sorry, did I wake you?
00:37:51No, can... Can you join me in bed, please?
00:38:00You sure?
00:38:05I just... I wanted to apologize for earlier. The restaurant.
00:38:14I got a bit carried away.
00:38:16Jess, you don't need to apologize.
00:38:19Adrian's an asshole. He's just trying to do it to get under your skin.
00:38:22I did care for Adrian once.
00:38:26But he just destroyed everything we had.
00:38:29I want you to know...
00:38:32That I'm... I'm here because of you.
00:38:36And you're the only one who I love.
00:38:41No one else.
00:38:42I love you too, Jess.
00:38:56And I'm not going anywhere.
00:38:58Good morning, husband.
00:39:15Morning, wife.
00:39:17Are you ready for your big day as the new CEO?
00:39:19If only you were with me.
00:39:20If only you were with me.
00:39:21You're going to do great today.
00:39:22You're going to do great today.
00:39:26Jess, here's your coffee.
00:39:27Mm-hmm.
00:39:28Mm-hmm.
00:39:31You're going to do great today.
00:39:33What's wrong?
00:39:53Jess, here's your coffee.
00:39:55Mm-hmm.
00:39:59What's wrong?
00:40:00No, it's just, it's this job. It's all so new to me.
00:40:04Okay, calm down. Remember, you're the CEO, which means you're the boss.
00:40:10Yeah, but I don't know how to be a boss.
00:40:14Hey, Jess.
00:40:15Look at you sitting in the big chair now.
00:40:19Oh, Giovanna, I am so happy you're here.
00:40:23Aw.
00:40:25You must be Daniel.
00:40:27Jessica's been talking about you for days.
00:40:30I'm flattered.
00:40:32I really wish you could be here with me, G. It's exhausting.
00:40:36Oh, at least you have a job, Jess.
00:40:38I've been looking for work for the past two months.
00:40:42Jess?
00:40:43Mm-hmm.
00:40:44Do you like Jana being here?
00:40:50Of course.
00:40:51We've been besties since forever.
00:40:54Yeah, what kind of question is that?
00:40:56Well, why don't you use your CEO power?
00:40:59And hire Giana.
00:41:03Oh, I don't, I know what you mean.
00:41:05Giana, I don't understand.
00:41:07How would you like to come work for me?
00:41:13Of course.
00:41:14Of course.
00:41:15Okay, then.
00:41:17My first order as a CEO.
00:41:21Giana, you are hired as my personal assistant.
00:41:25Oh, my God, Jess, thank you so much.
00:41:29See?
00:41:30Being a boss is easy.
00:41:33You can do whatever you want.
00:41:34Oh, my God.
00:41:44What's wrong?
00:41:45The company's stock prices are dropping like crazy.
00:41:49What is happening?
00:41:50This isn't normal.
00:41:53The stock's going, don't it?
00:41:54Well, well, well.
00:41:57Looks like things aren't going so well.
00:42:00What did you do, Lisa?
00:42:01I asked Richard and some of the other investors to sell their stocks.
00:42:07The board members are not going to be happy about the stock prices, Jessica.
00:42:10What do you want?
00:42:12Resign.
00:42:12I'm a CEO or I will destroy this company.
00:42:17No way.
00:42:18Okay.
00:42:20Then I will destroy this company.
00:42:23Jessica, the board members are asking to meet with you.
00:42:25They're angry.
00:42:32What are you going to do, Jess?
00:42:35Okay, I'll meet with the board.
00:42:37Wait, Jess.
00:42:39Don't go.
00:42:40Take a seat.
00:42:41What is it?
00:42:43Lisa.
00:42:45Are you sure the stock prices are going down?
00:42:48Because to me, they seem to be going up and up.
00:42:52That's impossible.
00:42:53You would need at least a billion dollars.
00:42:56I guess anything's possible these days.
00:42:59God damn it!
00:43:01God, she's annoying.
00:43:07No, you must be my lucky star.
00:43:11Daniel.
00:43:17Daniel.
00:43:20Gianna.
00:43:21I know who you are, Daniel.
00:43:23You're the son of James Thornton.
00:43:26How'd you find out?
00:43:27My identity's meant to be a secret.
00:43:29I used to work for your father.
00:43:31Please don't tell Jess.
00:43:32I'll pay you.
00:43:33How much do you want?
00:43:34I don't want your money.
00:43:36I care for my friend.
00:43:38Actually, your father fired me because I tried to help Jessica.
00:43:42I'm sorry, Gianna.
00:43:44It's okay.
00:43:45I just want to know why.
00:43:48She hates my family.
00:43:50I have to lie to her.
00:43:52She hates your family, but she loves you.
00:43:56I can see that.
00:43:58You really think so?
00:44:00Yes.
00:44:01I love her too.
00:44:04She's...
00:44:05The best thing that's ever happened to me.
00:44:08That's good to hear.
00:44:10Please protect her.
00:44:19Daniel.
00:44:21It's my mom.
00:44:23Adrian threatened her.
00:44:24Adrian threatened my mom on the phone.
00:44:32He said he was going to block her from entering the country.
00:44:36What should we do?
00:44:38Jess, I don't want you to worry about it.
00:44:41I'm going to make sure your mom gets her safely.
00:44:54Look her on the first flight out tomorrow.
00:45:05Got it, boss.
00:45:06She'll be here in town the day after tomorrow.
00:45:09Good.
00:45:16Jess has been taken care of.
00:45:18Your mom's going to be here the day after tomorrow.
00:45:22Thank you, Daniel.
00:45:25But I'm...
00:45:26I'm still scared.
00:45:29I just...
00:45:29I need a day off.
00:45:31I love the sound of that.
00:45:33What do you have in mind?
00:45:35I was thinking...
00:45:38I want to buy a house.
00:45:51So?
00:45:54Do you like this place?
00:45:56It's amazing.
00:45:57But...
00:45:58Jess, I appreciate the gesture.
00:46:01But you don't need to buy me a house.
00:46:04No.
00:46:05No.
00:46:06I insist.
00:46:07You've done so much...
00:46:09to help me.
00:46:11Besides, we can live together...
00:46:13here.
00:46:13Miss Thornton.
00:46:15Hi.
00:46:16Your father is here.
00:46:16Are you meeting here?
00:46:24Well...
00:46:25I've never met your parents.
00:46:28So...
00:46:29I'm pretty excited to meet an in-law.
00:46:33Oh, is...
00:46:34Is that him?
00:46:36Come on, let's go say hi.
00:46:38Jess, wait.
00:46:39Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.
00:46:42Um...
00:46:43I might not have told my dad about you and our marriage.
00:46:48Why?
00:46:50Uh...
00:46:50Because he has a heart condition.
00:46:54I think it's best you stay here.
00:46:57Okay.
00:46:57I'll just stay here, then.
00:47:03Good.
00:47:09Dad.
00:47:10Come on.
00:47:11Daniel, what the hell?
00:47:12Jessica's here.
00:47:13She can't see her face.
00:47:14Don't.
00:47:15Take them off.
00:47:18I want to talk to you about Ashley, Daniel.
00:47:20Why hasn't Daniel told his father about me and our wedding?
00:47:29Ashley, really?
00:47:30Not today.
00:47:33And what is this shirt you're wearing?
00:47:36Mother insisted I'm wearing this charity event in the morning ride.
00:47:42Said it makes me look more grounded.
00:47:45And approachable.
00:47:46And don't go changing our subject.
00:47:51I want to discuss our agreement.
00:47:53I give you Clara and you marry Ashley.
00:48:00Why does he look so nervous?
00:48:04Am I not good enough?
00:48:09Do we have to talk about this right now?
00:48:12I held up my end of the bargain, Daniel.
00:48:14I want this deal done now.
00:48:17Actually, Clara isn't safe yet.
00:48:20Lisa Miller might try to be sabotaging everything.
00:48:22This is why you don't mess with the Miller family.
00:48:26You should have left it alone.
00:48:28All I'm asking is just a few more days.
00:48:30Ashley is coming to town in a few days.
00:48:33What?
00:48:35Jess!
00:48:36Uh, Jess.
00:48:37Dad, this is Jess.
00:48:49Jess, this is Dad.
00:48:51You can call him Jimmy.
00:48:53Jimmy?
00:48:54Hmm?
00:48:55I...
00:48:56I'm Jimmy, sweetie.
00:48:59It's lovely to meet you, Jimmy.
00:49:01And can I just say, that is a lovely Hawaiian shirt.
00:49:05It really, really suits you.
00:49:06Well, thank you, Jessica.
00:49:09It's, uh, one I'm fond of.
00:49:12So, who is Ashley?
00:49:15I heard you guys talking about her earlier.
00:49:18Oh.
00:49:19She's just an old family friend.
00:49:22They grew up and went to law school together.
00:49:26Oh.
00:49:27And she had Daniel's first kiss.
00:49:30Oh.
00:49:32Her wedding is, uh, approaching soon.
00:49:34And, uh, I'd like Daniel to attend.
00:49:37Dad!
00:49:38Got to reminisce about the good old days.
00:49:40No, it's fine.
00:49:42Honestly, it's lovely to hear about Daniel's childhood
00:49:44and more about his life.
00:49:46You bastard child.
00:49:47Well, well.
00:49:55What do we have here?
00:49:57You think you can afford this place?
00:50:00You're about to lose this battle
00:50:02and be out on the streets soon.
00:50:05Who's this clown?
00:50:10Looks like he belongs in a circus.
00:50:12How dare you, Kristen!
00:50:14How do you know my name?
00:50:16And don't you dare call me by my first name.
00:50:18That's enough!
00:50:19Don't talk to my father like that.
00:50:25Oh!
00:50:25Oh!
00:50:27He's your father.
00:50:29Hmm.
00:50:30How does it feel to be a father of such a loser?
00:50:33Don't talk to my family like that.
00:50:37Your family.
00:50:38Your family suck, Jessica.
00:50:41Especially your mother.
00:50:43The home-wrecking tramp.
00:50:46A whore.
00:50:48Oh!
00:50:49How dare you slap me!
00:51:14That is enough, Kristen.
00:51:16You're not going to lay a hand on my wife.
00:51:23That is, you need to leave.
00:51:24Now.
00:51:25You can't throw us out.
00:51:27We're buyers.
00:51:27We're not going anywhere.
00:51:29The owner of this property
00:51:30has banned you from coming here.
00:51:32You need to leave now
00:51:33or I will call security.
00:51:36You
00:51:37will regret this.
00:51:39I've heard that a thousand times.
00:51:43Now leave.
00:51:44Okay.
00:51:52Thank you, Jessica.
00:51:56You stood up for me.
00:51:57Well, we're a family, Jimmy.
00:51:59It's what I'm supposed to do.
00:52:05Well, I appreciate it.
00:52:09You're a nice girl.
00:52:11You found a good wife, son.
00:52:13Dad.
00:52:16About Ashy's wedding.
00:52:18I don't think I'm going to be able to make it.
00:52:21I'll look into it.
00:52:22I'll speak to her about it.
00:52:23Oh, no, no, no, no.
00:52:25Daniel can still attend.
00:52:27It's not a problem.
00:52:28Jess, I just want to focus on you and I.
00:52:31I'm not the jealous type.
00:52:33Plus, I don't want you to miss
00:52:35your first crush's way.
00:52:38Well, you decide, Daniel.
00:52:41Oh, there's a long party.
00:52:43You two want to come?
00:52:44It's in three hours.
00:52:47Yeah.
00:52:49Dad, we'll go.
00:52:50Great.
00:52:52I'll see you there.
00:52:53Bye.
00:53:00Well, this place is extremely high class.
00:53:09Well, my dad has a few rich friends.
00:53:16And James Thornton is here.
00:53:20I know you don't want to see him.
00:53:22But Jess, my dad's here.
00:53:24He's going to join us later.
00:53:26Okay.
00:53:28The bidding's about to start.
00:53:30Oh, the bitch is here.
00:53:36I know.
00:53:38Don't worry.
00:53:38We can teach him a lesson.
00:53:39Yeah, how?
00:53:40Let's see if Daniel can handle
00:53:42a little humiliation.
00:53:45With money.
00:53:46Yeah, with money?
00:53:47What money?
00:53:48I haven't gotten my inheritance back yet.
00:53:49Yeah, I know.
00:53:50Your mother spoke to Richard.
00:53:52He said he's willing to donate us some cash
00:53:54if we make Jessica look ugly.
00:53:56Oh.
00:53:59You're the best.
00:54:00I know.
00:54:08Ladies and gentlemen,
00:54:09welcome to this evening's auction.
00:54:11We have for you
00:54:12the last dance.
00:54:14Bid starts at

00:54:16$1 million.
00:54:20$2 million, right here.
00:54:29$3 million.
00:54:35$4 million.
00:54:37What are they doing?
00:54:39Where did they get that money from?
00:54:40I don't know.
00:54:41But they're definitely trying to humiliate you here.
00:54:43Really?
00:54:44But I don't even care about this bit.
00:54:48$5 million!
00:54:50Daniel, what are you doing?
00:54:51Don't worry, Jess.
00:54:52I've got this.

00:54:58$5 million!
00:54:59Daniel, what are you doing?
00:55:00Don't worry, Jess.
00:55:01I've got this.
00:55:03I got $6 million.
00:55:06Cash.
00:55:07Boom.
00:55:08You can't compete with that.
00:55:11Watch this.
00:55:13$7 million.
00:55:15$8 million.
00:55:16$8 million.
00:55:18Did that just happen?
00:55:19$10 million!
00:55:24Awesome.
00:55:26$10 million.
00:55:27Once, twice, sold.
00:55:30There's a gentleman there.
00:55:40Where did you get that money from?
00:55:42Well, do you remember me telling you about I have a powerful friend?
00:55:48Yeah, the one who helped me find my mother.
00:55:52Jessica?
00:55:53James Thornton.
00:55:55In the flesh.
00:55:56Or Mrs. Thornton.
00:55:58I want to apologize to you.
00:56:00I am truly sorry for everything I did to you and your mother.
00:56:05But I'm trying my best to make amends.
00:56:08Well, I don't know what to say.
00:56:12Jess, I know it's a lot to handle.
00:56:14You've just got to trust me.
00:56:15Yeah, but why didn't you just tell me in the first place, Daniel?
00:56:19Jess!
00:56:20Jessica!
00:56:21Don't follow me!
00:56:27Oh, this could get interesting.
00:56:29Mm-hmm.
00:56:30Oh, look who's all alone.
00:56:45No, just leave, just leave me alone.
00:56:47You're never going to win against James Thornton.
00:56:49He's my mother's best friend.
00:56:52You're going to lose everything.
00:56:53Poor babe.
00:56:54Still played by the big boys.
00:56:56James Thornton and his son have been playing you all along.
00:57:00Wait, what did you just say?
00:57:03James Thornton and his son?
00:57:05Wait, Jess, you didn't know?
00:57:07Daniel Thornton is his son.
00:57:11Oh, my God.
00:57:13I didn't know that.
00:57:14Now that I do.
00:57:17That's enough.
00:57:19Oh, excuse me, Mr. Thornton.
00:57:22Crown Prince said to the Thornton family.
00:57:30This man's been lying to you all along.
00:57:37Mm, poor little girl's got no one to trust.
00:57:39Both of you, get out of here.
00:57:44Hey.
00:57:52Jess, I've been trying to tell you.
00:57:54Am I a joke?
00:57:55Get to you.
00:57:55No.
00:57:56What do you mean?
00:57:57You and your father.
00:58:00You've been playing me this whole time.
00:58:03No.
00:58:03I've been standing by your side all the time, Jess.
00:58:06I can't trust you.
00:58:09You lied to me.
00:58:11You're right.
00:58:12You're right.
00:58:13I have been hiding things from you.
00:58:20You know what I haven't told you yet?
00:58:23Another big secret.
00:58:26Are you sure you want to hear this?
00:58:34The other big secret is...
00:58:36The first time we met isn't what you think it is.
00:58:40It was five years ago.
00:58:41Five years ago.
00:58:43Yes.
00:58:45At a party.
00:58:47I was drunk and I fell in a pool.
00:58:56Oh, thank God you're alive.
00:59:00I was drowning and you saved my life.
00:59:07But you won't remember that.
00:59:10But I will forever be grateful for what you did for me that day.
00:59:14That then?
00:59:16That was you?
00:59:17Yes.
00:59:18My father forbid me from seeing you.
00:59:21But I didn't care.
00:59:23I confronted him.
00:59:24You can't tell me what to do, Dad.
00:59:27You can't stop me from seeing her.
00:59:28I'm doing what's best for you, Daniel.
00:59:30That girl and all her family are nothing but trouble.
00:59:35And then he decided to tell me about everything he did to you and your mom.
00:59:39And I felt so guilty.
00:59:40It's okay.
00:59:41I was ashamed to approach you.
00:59:47I just didn't know how to face you without making things worse.
00:59:50And I thought the best thing to do was just meet your mom.
00:59:54No, I know.
00:59:55And then I heard about you being deported and I just couldn't let that happen.
00:59:58Well.
00:59:59Okay.
01:00:00I saved you.
01:00:03And you saved me.
01:00:07I guess we just belong together.
01:00:13Ew.
01:00:14Horny.
01:00:17But just...
01:00:20No more secrets.
01:00:23Okay?
01:00:24I promise.
01:00:27No more secrets.
01:00:30You're up early.
01:00:47Yeah.
01:00:48I'm gonna go pick your mom up from the airport.
01:00:50Better sooner than later.
01:00:56Giannis just texted me.
01:00:57She said that I have my first weekly exec meeting this morning.
01:01:02I should postpone it.
01:01:03No.
01:01:04You should definitely go to that.
01:01:06You need to look good in front of your board.
01:01:08Really?
01:01:09Yeah.
01:01:09I'm gonna go pick your mom up from the airport.
01:01:11And I'll bring you straight to the office.
01:01:13Thanks.
01:01:14You're the best.
01:01:19Well, that was better than I thought.
01:01:21Don't underestimate yourself, Jess.
01:01:24You did great.
01:01:29Hey, Jess.
01:01:30What are you doing here?
01:01:36What are you doing here?
01:01:38I just want to share with you some interesting facts about your dear husband, Daniel Thornton.
01:01:42Jonah, can you wait outside a moment?
01:01:50Okay.
01:01:51I'm telling you now.
01:01:52Whatever bad, made-up facts that you've come to tell me about Daniel,
01:01:57is going to work.
01:01:58Because Daniel already told me everything.
01:02:01Everything?
01:02:02Are you so sure?
01:02:04Yeah.
01:02:05Him and his father came clean about everything.
01:02:07There's nothing more to hide.
01:02:08And did they also tell you Daniel's supposed to marry his childhood sweetheart?
01:02:12What?
01:02:13Ashley Wimbledon.
01:02:15Heiress to the famous Wimbledon family.
01:02:18Ring any bells?
01:02:19Ashley.
01:02:23Ashley.
01:02:25Who is Ashley?
01:02:28I heard you guys talking about her earlier.
01:02:30Oh, she's just an old childhood friend.
01:02:34They grew up and went to law school together.
01:02:37Oh.
01:02:38And she had Daniel's first kiss.
01:02:44He did mention Ashley.
01:02:49He did?
01:02:50Yeah, but he's not going to marry her.
01:02:53I remember that conversation.
01:02:58Daniel's picking my mother up from the airport himself.
01:03:01I'll be seeing her soon.
01:03:02What are you laughing about?
01:03:10Daniel wants to bring her back, babe.
01:03:13You're not going to see her.
01:03:14After years of separation with your mother, Daniel didn't let you go along with him to meet with her?
01:03:25Now, what kind of a husband does that?
01:03:27I had an early meeting this morning, and Daniel didn't want me to worry.
01:03:31So easily manipulated, Jess.
01:03:34Daniel's just like old times.
01:03:37Yeah, well, I don't believe a word you say.
01:03:41Daniel isn't going to bring her back.
01:03:43Are you sure everything is taken care of?
01:03:56Yes.
01:03:57You're free to live in this country.
01:04:00Clara, I also want to apologize for everything you went through years ago.
01:04:04I'm deeply sorry.
01:04:04Well, you did bring me back here.
01:04:07Right now, I just want to see my daughter.
01:04:10Well, that's right.
01:04:11Not so fast, Danny boy.
01:04:18You're too late, Lisa.
01:04:20Clara's here to claim Robert's inheritance back.
01:04:23Oh, I don't think so.
01:04:25Agents, do you think?
01:04:26Wait.
01:04:27What?
01:04:27This is a mistake.
01:04:28No.
01:04:29Clara's got past customs.
01:04:30She can stay.
01:04:31Sweetheart, you really think those little documents can stop this?
01:04:35I don't think so.
01:04:36Back off, Lisa.
01:04:38Watch it, little boy.
01:04:39Jess.
01:04:40Jess, Mom!
01:04:41Mom!
01:04:42What are you doing?
01:04:43Jess.
01:04:43Where are they taking my mother?
01:04:45Mom, I will bring you back, I promise.
01:04:47Just stay strong.
01:04:48Sis, it looks like you've been screwed by the Thorntons again.
01:04:51Adrian, you sabotage this.
01:04:54You'll pay for this.
01:04:55See, babe, I told you he's not bringing her back.
01:04:58You said everything was taken care of.
01:05:01Jess, it's not me.
01:05:02It's them.
01:05:03You're lying, Daniel.
01:05:04Why don't you ask him about that thing we talked about, Jess?
01:05:09Jess?
01:05:10He said that you were going to marry Ashley.
01:05:13Okay, so it's true.
01:05:14Jess, can we just talk about this?
01:05:18No.
01:05:18No, no, no, no, no.
01:05:19Thing is, Daniel, you promised me no more secrets.
01:05:22I can't trust you anymore.
01:05:24Jess!
01:05:25Can you?
01:05:26It's just, uh, looks like you lost, Daniel.
01:05:28You'll never get in the back.
01:05:30Oh, thank God you're alive.
01:05:53That was the problem with Clara.
01:06:22Her paperwork was flawless.
01:06:24You're right now.
01:06:25I check with customers in the U.S. CIS.
01:06:28The label confirmed that she illegally entered the country.
01:06:31What is it not?
01:06:36Agents, do you think?
01:06:37Wait.
01:06:38What?
01:06:39This is a mistake.
01:06:40No.
01:06:41Jess.
01:06:42Jess, baby.
01:06:44Mom.
01:06:47The ICE agents weren't real.
01:06:49They were hired by Adrian and Lisa to kidnap Clara.
01:06:52Hold on a sec.
01:06:56You're right, boss.
01:06:57We found out those people wanted them.
01:06:59What should we do?
01:07:01I need to find out where they took them.
01:07:03Use all our contacts.
01:07:04I'm not going to let them get away with this.
01:07:06On it, boss.
01:07:15Well, well, well, Clara.
01:07:18Bet you didn't expect to see me again, did you?
01:07:20We finally have what it takes to get it all back?
01:07:24Don't look at me like that.
01:07:26You disgust me.
01:07:33Jess, we need to talk.
01:07:35I don't want to talk to you.
01:07:36It's about your mom.
01:07:37I think she was kidnapped by Adrian and Lisa's people.
01:07:40The ICE agents weren't real.
01:07:42What are you talking about?
01:07:44I spoke to Ted.
01:07:46He told me that Clara legally came into the country.
01:07:49It was a setup.
01:07:51Do you actually expect me to believe that?
01:07:53After all the lies, you're so full of shit, Daniel!
01:07:56Hello, bastard child.
01:08:06Yes, we have your mother.
01:08:08And if you ever want to see her again,
01:08:10follow the directions to the address that we just sent you.
01:08:13And don't bring anyone.
01:08:14Especially Daniel.
01:08:19Let me come with you.
01:08:20No, they want me alone.
01:08:21I don't want to respect you.
01:08:22Jess?
01:08:22Don't follow me.
01:08:24I will not let you do this alone.
01:08:32Mom?
01:08:33Bastard child, over here.
01:08:35You let her go.
01:08:37This has gone on far enough.
01:08:39I'm not so fast, sis.
01:08:41This is only the beginning.
01:08:46You sign this,
01:08:48we let her go.
01:08:51And what is it?
01:08:52An agreement signing everything over to us.
01:08:55The house.
01:08:57Company.
01:08:59Everything.
01:09:08Signed.
01:09:10Now let her go.
01:09:11God, you are so naive, sis.
01:09:15Now what more do you want?
01:09:18Get down on your knees
01:09:19and show that you know your place.
01:09:21Get down on your knees
01:09:26and show that you know your place.
01:09:29Wait.
01:09:34That's better.
01:09:42Now bark like a dog.
01:09:44Come on.
01:09:49Come on.
01:09:53That's enough, Kristen.
01:09:59We're getting out of here, Monk.
01:10:06Let's get her out of here.
01:10:08Come on.
01:10:09Let's go.
01:10:10God damn it!
01:10:11I can't.
01:10:16Mom needs to be here with us.
01:10:17Mom, we gotta go.
01:10:19Come on.
01:10:20Daniel!
01:10:26Jess.
01:10:29No, don't.
01:10:30Don't try and talk.
01:10:30The police, they're on their way.
01:10:32Jess.
01:10:34I'm so sorry.
01:10:35Why are you apologizing?
01:10:37Just don't move.
01:10:39Oh.
01:10:40Oh.
01:10:44Well, the doctor said it was nothing serious, so
01:10:50you'll be out of here soon.
01:10:53Jess, I just want to apologize.
01:10:56I am so sorry.
01:10:57Daniel, what are you apologizing for?
01:11:01You saved my mom.
01:11:02You saved us.
01:11:05Hello again, Mr. Thornton.
01:11:08Officer, you're here.
01:11:10Yes.
01:11:11You promised me last week we'd get that interview done.
01:11:15Officer, my husband is injured.
01:11:18He's literally lying in bed.
01:11:21Well, that doesn't change the requirements.
01:11:23Jess, it's okay.
01:11:26We can do the interview.
01:11:31We can do the interview.
01:11:35Are you insane?
01:11:36We haven't rehearsed this.
01:11:39Jess, when you see
01:11:41we've been rehearsing this whole Christmas,
01:11:44there's no better time to do this.
01:11:46You're right.
01:11:46We're ready, officer.
01:11:51Let's start with the question I asked you last week.
01:11:54When did you two first meet?
01:11:56Five years and four months ago.
01:11:58I don't understand.
01:12:00Last time you said it was six months ago
01:12:03and the other one said it was eight months ago.
01:12:05We lied, officer.
01:12:08But it was five years ago.
01:12:10At a pool party.
01:12:12And we had our first kiss when we first met.
01:12:16It sounds pretty far-fetched.
01:12:19But for some reason,
01:12:21I want to give you two the benefit of the doubt.
01:12:26It sounds pretty far-fetched.
01:12:29But for some reason,
01:12:31I want to give you two the benefit of the doubt.
01:12:34Daniel risked his life to save me and my mother.
01:12:38There's nothing more that he needs to do to prove his love for me.
01:12:41One last question.
01:12:44How frequently have you two spent the night together in the past week?
01:12:53Relax.
01:12:55I can tell it's been at least three times.
01:12:58Right.
01:12:59Well, that's my interview done.
01:13:00You two are quite the couple.
01:13:03Thank you, officer.
01:13:05Daniel.
01:13:05Daniel.
01:13:06Daniel.
01:13:07She's coming.
01:13:08Who's coming?
01:13:09Who's coming?
01:13:09Your fiancée.
01:13:17That's who.
01:13:22Your fiancée.
01:13:24That's who.
01:13:25Ashley.
01:13:27I guess I'm not done yet.
01:13:29You betrayed my family's trust, Daniel.
01:13:33Ashley.
01:13:34Please.
01:13:35Can't we talk about this?
01:13:37So you're Jessica Miller, huh?
01:13:40Adrian's told me all about you.
01:13:42I don't know what Adrian told you,
01:13:45but it's not what you think.
01:13:47Daniel was supposed to marry me,
01:13:50and then you just waltzed in and ruined everything.
01:13:54Ashley.
01:13:55Our engagement was long over before Jessica came to the picture.
01:13:58Oh, I see.
01:14:03You think this is over.
01:14:07I'm the heiress of the Wimbledon family.
01:14:11The Thornton name is as good as ruined.
01:14:15You can't do that, Ashley.
01:14:21Watch me.
01:14:22You're not the only heiress here.
01:14:32I own Miller Empire.
01:14:36And if you come for the Thorntons,
01:14:39the Miller Empire is going to come for you so hard.
01:14:44You've got guts, Jessica.
01:14:51I like you.
01:14:55I gotta tell you, I didn't expect that.
01:14:58This is so much better than watching TV.
01:15:00Glad to see you've replaced me with someone with a little fire, Daniel.
01:15:04I always knew Daniel didn't love me,
01:15:11but he was too afraid of his father
01:15:14to ever go after his true love.
01:15:17But I guess I'm happy
01:15:20that he's found someone who wants the same things as him.
01:15:26So,
01:15:27that's it?
01:15:30That's it.
01:15:31That's it.
01:15:34Enjoy your happy ending,
01:15:37darling.
01:15:41Andrea,
01:15:42bring the car around.
01:15:45Did that actually just happen?
01:15:48Yeah.
01:15:49Wow.
01:15:51You two,
01:15:51really don't let anyone
01:15:53or anything
01:15:54get in the way of true love.
01:15:56You didn't see that come.
01:16:00This is all your fault, Mom.
01:16:02If you wouldn't have been so reckless,
01:16:03then maybe you wouldn't be in this mess.
01:16:05Don't put all the blame on me.
01:16:06You're just as much a part of this as I am.
01:16:08Where is Adrian?
01:16:09I should be here by now.
01:16:12Miss me?
01:16:13Where have you been?
01:16:14Just tying up a few loose ends.
01:16:16Don't worry about it.
01:16:18Everything's going according to plan.
01:16:20Plan?
01:16:21What plan?
01:16:22Everything's falling apart.
01:16:23What did you do, Adrian?
01:16:36Well, me, myself,
01:16:38I done nothing illegal.
01:16:39You two, on the other hand,
01:16:42that's a different story.
01:16:43You set us up!
01:16:45I'm just ensuring my own safety.
01:16:46After all,
01:16:49I kept my hands clean.
01:16:55Ow!
01:16:56You're not going to get away with this, asshole!
01:16:59I already have.
01:17:00I remember when this place was filled with warmth and laughter.
01:17:11Used to be a real family home back then,
01:17:13but then things just went south.
01:17:17Things will be fine again, Mom, I promise.
01:17:20We'll turn this into a good family house.
01:17:22No more hatred.
01:17:24No more backstabbing.
01:17:26I missed you every single day, Jess.
01:17:28I'm so sorry for everything both of us had to go through.
01:17:35Jessica?
01:17:37Yeah?
01:17:39I am so sorry for everything I've done to you both.
01:17:44I was wrong.
01:17:45And I know I can never fully make up for it,
01:17:49but I want to try.
01:17:50James, you kept us apart for so many years.
01:17:52James, it's going to be hard to forgive and forget.
01:17:55I know, Clara.
01:18:00Jess, are you all right?
01:18:04Yeah, no, I'm...
01:18:06I'm fine.
01:18:07You know, I just feel...
01:18:09I just feel nauseous, that's all.
01:18:12Have you been getting any other symptoms,
01:18:14like dizziness or fatigue?
01:18:18I don't think, yeah,
01:18:19but I just thought that was from all the stress.
01:18:21Sweetheart,
01:18:25you're pregnant.
01:18:27Really?
01:18:28You're showing all the signs, Jess.
01:18:33We're going to have a baby!
01:18:35Wait,
01:18:37that means I'm going to be a grandpa!
01:18:41Yeah!
01:18:41Daniel,
01:18:50there's something you need to do.
01:18:56What's this?
01:18:58This is a ring your grandma left.
01:19:00And I think
01:19:02this is the perfect time to use it.
01:19:05Go, go.
01:19:06You're going to do this?
01:19:07Yeah.
01:19:08Go.
01:19:10No.
01:19:18Jess?
01:19:20Jess!
01:19:21What?
01:19:21Jess, I know we've only ever spent time together
01:19:25a week during Christmas.
01:19:27And we've been through so much
01:19:29in that time.
01:19:30And over the past five years,
01:19:32all I've wanted to do is be with you.
01:19:35And I've had to endure the pain of that
01:19:36not being possible.
01:19:38I want to spend every waking moment
01:19:40in time with you.
01:19:41What I'm trying to say is, Jess,
01:19:44will you marry me?
01:19:51For real this time?
01:19:53Okay.
01:19:53Yes, Daniel.
01:19:54Yes, I will marry you.
01:19:56Yes!
01:19:56Really?
01:19:57Yes!
01:19:58Yes!
