Lawyer Up, My Heiress - Full Movie
Transcript
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, you can have her.
00:03:49Thank you, officer.
00:03:56Guys, I think we're good.
00:03:59It's not over.
00:04:03We'll be checking your marital status
00:04:05and 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
00:05:04full of memories.
00:05:05You, you can't do this!
00:05:19Jess, it's okay.
00:05:21Just wait here.
00:05:22I'll handle it.
00:05:26What?
00:05:26Why are you helping that girl?
00:05:33Kristen Miller is our ally.
00:05:35And 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.
00:05:58I recognize that face from the newspaper.
00:06:02That was James Thornton from the Thornton family.
00:06:06The family responsible for my mother's disappearance.
00:06:09Stop 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 Daniel Thornton?
00:06:45Yeah.
00:06:47The Thornton family are responsible
00:06:49for the disappearance of my mother.
00:06:52I have been searching for her my entire life.
00:06:56Jess.
00:06:57I can explain.
00:06:58I'm not marrying Thornton.
00:06:59Wait, wait, wait, Jess, 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,
00:07:12and 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 out of the country,
00:07:30and I was not going to have anything 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.
00:07:44Well, 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 when I was nine.
00:07:59No way.
00:08:00I got mine as a Christmas present when I was nine.
00:08:02That's crazy.
00:08:07Jess, we're going to have to sleep in the same room together
00:08:09just in case immigration ambush us.
00:08:11Yeah, but are you sure you're okay sleeping on the carpet?
00:08:15I mean, you've done so much for me already, and 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 to get rich.
00:08:28It's okay, Daniel.
00:08:29I'll see you next time.
00:08:59I'll see you next time.
00:09:01I'll see you next time.
00:09:02What's she spying on?
00:09:05No.
00:09:06No, no, no, no.
00:09:07I was just passing by and just...
00:09:11Do you need anything?
00:09:13I was joking.
00:09:14Yeah, could you pass me the towel that's just hanging up next to the door?
00:09:20Yeah, sure, sure.
00:09:25Bye.
00:09:29Oh, my God.
00:09:37What?
00:09:37I just got fired.
00:09:38What?
00:09:41Oh, wait, Jess, let me go with you.
00:09:47Yeah.
00:09:47Sam, please, don't fire me.
00:10:00I'm sorry, Jess, but your immigration issue put us in a tough spot.
00:10:06I worked for this company for years.
00:10:10I'm sorry, Jess.
00:10:11There's nothing I can do.
00:10:14I'm sorry.
00:10:20Look who's here.
00:10:22Someone who just got fired.
00:10:25This suits you.
00:10:31It was you.
00:10:32I should have known you weren't behind this.
00:10:35I'm not going to let you stay here and ruin things.
00:10:37I'm going to take away everything you have, sister.
00:10:45You just made a big mistake, sir.
00:10:46Who are you?
00:10:47My name is Daniel Thornton, son of James Thornton, the chairman of Thornton Enterprise.
00:10:54Oh, Mr. Thornton, welcome.
00:11:00What brings you here?
00:11:02Well, I have some good news for you.
00:11:06Jessica Miller, she's just closed a billion dollar deal.
00:11:11Take a look.
00:11:12Oh, my God.
00:11:28It's surreal.
00:11:30Absolutely.
00:11:31With her hard work and dedication, she's made this possible.
00:11:35It's a real shame you're going to lose such a valuable employee.
00:11:38Oh, uh, Mr. Thornton, um, I have made a huge mistake.
00:11:45Uh, Jessica will stay.
00:11:48Good.
00:11:50And, uh, make sure nobody knows we had this conversation.
00:11:58Jessica!
00:12:00You should have told me!
00:12:06What are you talking about?
00:12:08Jessica!
00:12:09You secured a huge deal for the company!
00:12:12Thank you!
00:12:14Did you not just fire her?
00:12:16I changed my mind.
00:12:18Jessica's saying, actually, she's being promoted to sales manager.
00:12:25Can't afford to lose someone as valuable as, like, her?
00:12:28Great.
00:12:30Thanks, Sam.
00:12:32This is not over.
00:12:34I can't believe it.
00:12:39Jessica kept her job, and she gets promoted.
00:12:42Don't worry, Lisa.
00:12:43I just spoke with James Thornton, and he had the lawyer change the will in our favor.
00:12:49Jessica will get nothing.
00:12:51Oh, my God.
00:12:53That's fantastic.
00:12:54No way.
00:13:14Jessica?
00:13:14How's work?
00:13:16Did you get your job back?
00:13:17Daniel, I need a lawyer.
00:13:27Well, look who decided to show up.
00:13:31Too bad for you.
00:13:32Just turns out Daddy's will left you nothing.
00:13:34I knew all along Robert wouldn't leave anything for this little, pathetic, bastard 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 a revised will.
00:13:54It supports Kristen and Lisa's claims.
00:14:00Mr. Thornton.
00:14:01Who is this?
00:14:02He's my lawyer, and a damn good one.
00:14:05Oh.
00:14:06You know, Jess, I didn't realize you had enough money to pay for a fancy little lawyer.
00:14:11You sleep with them?
00:14:13Patrick, can I have a word with you outside?
00:14:17Talk all you want.
00:14:18It won't change anything.
00:14:28All right, Patrick.
00:14:30I'm going to keep this short and sweet.
00:14:32I know you changed the will to favor Kristen and Lisa.
00:14:35I know what you're talking about, Mr. Thornton.
00:14:37The revised will is solid.
00:14:39Ted found an email exchange with my father.
00:14:42Here, take a look.
00:14:44You've been caught, Patrick.
00:14:46Honor of the will, I'll report you to the Bar Association.
00:14:49You'll lose your license and any chance of practicing law again.
00:14:52That goes against your father's wishes.
00:14:55You don't understand the 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 doing the right thing.
00:15:02Um, this 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, you've got your inheritance back.
00:15:20Congratulations.
00:15:20Oh, my God.
00:15:25Patrick, do what you are supposed to do or James will make sure you face the consequences.
00:15:31Don't listen to her, 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 powerful men in this town.
00:15:45I sure can.
00:15:46Isn'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.
00:15:54According to the original will, Jessica stands to inherit this mansion.
00:15:58Kristen, you're out.
00:16:00I think you two should leave.
00:16:02You're a homewrecker.
00:16:03Just like your mother.
00:16:05I will not allow violence.
00:16:08I didn't come here to argue over a house and assets.
00:16:14I came here to be recognized as an actual member of this family.
00:16:18Yeah, well, it's easy for you to say you're getting everything.
00:16:20You don't know how lucky you are, Lisa.
00:16:22You grew up with a father who loved you.
00:16:25I had none.
00:16:26And you took my mother away from me, and I still don't know where she is.
00:16:31You two don't deserve this mansion.
00:16:35And I would rather give it away to a charity than to see the two of you living in it.
00:16:40You two should pack your things up.
00:16:49You have one week to leave this house.
00:16:50Don't listen to it.
00:17:00What 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 just to argue with me.
00:17:17So what do you want?
00:17:19I just want Jessica to get her mom back.
00:17:24Interesting.
00:17:28What's in it for me?
00:17:30Once Jessica gets her mom back, I'll do whatever you want.
00:17:34Whatever I want?
00:17:36Like what exactly?
00:17:38I'll marry Ashley.
00:17:39You'll marry Ashley?
00:17:44Yeah.
00:17:45You're willing to do that?
00:17:47Yeah, I am.
00:17:50But only if she's reunited with her mother.
00:17:54Okay.
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.
00:18:14What's wrong?
00:18:15We 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...
00:18:27When did you two meet?
00:18:31Uh, we met at a friend's party two years ago.
00:18:35What do you say, Jessica?
00:18:37Huh?
00:18:37Oh, yeah, yeah.
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.
00:18:47Six months or eight months?
00:18:49Which one is it?
00:18:50Yeah, eight 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.
00:18:58And what's your anniversary date?
00:19:01March 15th.
00:19:03March 15th.
00:19:05All right.
00:19:10Uh, that's it?
00:19:12Yes, Mr. Thornton.
00:19:13I have everything I need.
00:19:15I'll report back to the judges.
00:19:17Oh, wait.
00:19:22Uh, this.
00:19:25How did we do in there?
00:19:29It was...
00:19:30pretty bad.
00:19:33Look.
00:19:35I'm the son of James Thornton.
00:19:37I know who you are.
00:19:38Uh, Kate.
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.
00:19:57Right.
00:19:58Three million dollars.
00:20:04It's tempting,
00:20:05but like I said,
00:20:06you can't bribe me.
00:20:07Please.
00:20:08Can you just give us
00:20:09one 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,
00:20:18but I'll give you one week.
00:20:20Make it count.
00:20:22Next time,
00:20:23I want to see some genuine affection
00:20:25between you two.
00:20:25If anything seems a bit off,
00:20:27your game's up.
00:20:29Of course.
00:20:30And one more thing.
00:20:32I can tell you two
00:20:33haven't had sex yet.
00:20:35I'm that good,
00:20:36Mr. Daniel.
00:20:38Don't try and fool me.
00:20:45She gave us another chance.
00:20:47Oh, thank God.
00:20:48We have one week
00:20:49to get our story straight.
00:20:51Thank you, Daniel.
00:20:53You've been
00:20:54very, very helpful today.
00:20:57Now, I wanted to make
00:21:15our first Christmas special,
00:21:16so I did a little digging
00:21:19and I found this.
00:21:20This tree is amazing.
00:21:22What happened?
00:21:29Let me have a look.
00:21:32Let me have a look.
00:21:32Let me have a look.
00:21:34Can I have a look?
00:21:45So...
00:21:48So...
00:21:49Let me have a look.
00:21:50Let me have a look.
00:21:52Um, I have a festive gift for you, too.
00:22:12Wow.
00:22:15Jess, you look gorgeous.
00:22:22And then, I told him that's not how you negotiate.
00:22:26You did it.
00:22:27You did.
00:22:52Let's see if you're wrong.
00:22:54Maybe.
00:22:56Maybe not.
00:23:05Oh.
00:23:10Oh, my God.
00:23:13Oh.
00:23:14Oh, my God.
00:23:15Oh, my God.
00:23:17Oh, my God.
00:23:19I'm not more.
00:23:20Oh, my God.
00:23:21Oh, my God.
00:23:22And that is how you make a shit.
00:23:35You're only fair.
00:23:36It's stuck.
00:23:53Hold on, I've got this.
00:24:06Hold on, I've got this.
00:24:36Hold on, I've got this.
00:25:06You're only watches.
00:25:09Is it real?
00:25:11No, it's fake.
00:25:16You 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.
00:26:13Morning.
00:26:14This is the most beautiful morning that I've ever had.
00:26:16Daniel, I'm so sorry about last night.
00:26:22It wasn't supposed to happen, and I promise it will never happen again.
00:26:27She didn't mean it.
00:26:32Oh, Jessica.
00:26:33Last night was amazing.
00:26:38Yeah, Jess.
00:26:40I get it.
00:26:41It was a one-time thing.
00:26:45You know, just like, just a one-time thing.
00:26:49Yeah.
00:26:52Anyway, it's your big day today.
00:26:56You're the new CEO of the Miller Empire.
00:26:58Thank you for the reminder.
00:27:05Now that you mention it, I'm really scared.
00:27:08Oh, no, Jess.
00:27:09I didn't mean it like that.
00:27:12What I was meant to say is...
00:27:15I'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.
00:27:33So we just need a board member to back us up.
00:27:36I will call Richard.
00:27:38Everyone 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.
00:27:45You go, girl.
00:27:46Ha ha ha!
00:27:56These clothes are beautiful,
00:28:00but, uh...
00:28:02very expensive.
00:28:05Like this one.
00:28:07That is...
00:28:08$9,000.
00:28:10Jess, don't worry about it.
00:28:13It's on me.
00:28:14Look at it as, uh...
00:28:16my first gift to my wife.
00:28:18You know what?
00:28:18Daniel, I can't let you pay for this.
00:28:20Look, Jess,
00:28:22you're gonna be a CEO,
00:28:23which means you've got to look the part.
00:28:25Trust me.
00:28:27It's an investment.
00:28:29Mr. Thornton,
00:28:31welcome 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,
00:28:40Jess,
00:28:40why don't you try this one on?
00:28:42You'll look great in it.
00:28:43Wow, Jess,
00:28:50you look
00:28:50amazing.
00:28:53You think so?
00:28:54Yeah.
00:28:56This is exactly
00:28:57what a CEO would wear.
00:28:59Absolutely.
00:29:00Great choice.
00:29:01We'll take this one.
00:29:04Something on your mind?
00:29:06Well, it's probably nothing,
00:29:08but it's just
00:29:08that clerk seemed very
00:29:10fond of you.
00:29:12Oh, uh...
00:29:13being friendly
00:29:15is a part of my job.
00:29:16Okay.
00:29:23So that's how
00:29:25you got your lawyer,
00:29:26huh?
00:29:27Now that you mention it,
00:29:29maybe she wasn't
00:29:30a little friendly,
00:29:31but we got a discount.
00:29:34Show on.
00:29:35What a slut.
00:29:50Trust me, Jess.
00:29:51You can do this.
00:29:52Yeah, but what if
00:29:53they 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
00:30:01little lovebirds.
00:30:05Pathetic.
00:30:08Ted,
00:30:09can we talk about this
00:30:10later?
00:30:11Okay.
00:30:13You go in.
00:30:14I'll meet you in there
00:30:15soon, okay?
00:30:15Good luck in there, sis.
00:30:25You're gonna need it.
00:30:27You don't have the votes.
00:30:28I know my background
00:30:34doesn't seem very typical
00:30:35of a CEO,
00:30:37but I built myself
00:30:38from the bottom up here.
00:30:40Miller Corporation
00:30:41is a leader
00:30:42in tech
00:30:44and services,
00:30:46reaching industries

00:30:54who have 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.
00:31:01And I believe
00:31:02that I can help
00:31:03lead this company
00:31:04to become
00:31:04everyone's company.
00:31:07Let's proceed
00:31:07to the vote.
00:31:09All in favor?
00:31:14Robert lost
00:31:15his damn mind.
00:31:16He picked
00:31:16his secret child
00:31:17to be the CEO
00:31:19only because
00:31:19of his guilty conscience.
00:31:21Richard,
00:31:22if I may...
00:31:23I'm not done talking.
00:31:25You can't lead us.
00:31:27And you're not
00:31:27getting my vote.
00:31:31Richard,
00:31:31if I may speak...
00:31:32Go ahead.
00:31:34But I won't
00:31:35change my mind.
00:31:39Sorry for interrupting
00:31:40everyone,
00:31:41but I have something
00:31:42important to share
00:31:42with you all today.
00:31:43Who the hell are you?
00:31:45Well, Richard,
00:31:46I'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,
00:31:52you're a sex pervert.

00:32:14just allegations
00:32:15and they've all
00:32:16been settled.
00:32:16I'm innocent.
00:32:17They've also
00:32:18got in contact
00:32:19with some of the victims
00:32:19and they're willing
00:32:20to come forward
00:32:20and testify.
00:32:21Actually...
00:32:22I have not finished yet.
00:32:24You're also
00:32:24stealing money
00:32:25from the company
00:32:26and we have
00:32:27the financial records
00:32:28to prove it.
00:32:29the evidence
00:32:35is clear.
00:32:35He's guilty.
00:32:39Okay then,
00:32:40let's all vote
00:32:41for Richard Donnell's
00:32:42immediate suspension.
00:32:43All in favor?

00:32:52The board has decided.

00:33:27I'm sorry I was late.
00:33:29I had to make sure
00:33:30I had enough evidence
00:33:31to nail him.
00:33:32No, don't be sorry,
00:33:33Daniel.
00:33:33That was so worth
00:33:34the wait.
00:33:35Good.
00:33:38This is not over.
00:33:40You'll see.
00:33:40How's packing going,
00:33:41Lisa?
00:33:42You're about to be
00:33:42evicted, sir.
00:33:44Bye-bye.
00:33:50She won again,
00:33:51that bitch.
00:33:52I know.
00:33:53It's so unfair.
00:33:54Do we have a guest?
00:33:56Lisa, honey.
00:33:57I've been trying
00:33:58to reach you.
00:33:59Why haven't you
00:34:00returned my calls?
00:34:01I've been busy.
00:34:03Busy.
00:34:04Dealing with Jessica.
00:34:06How did you know?
00:34:07Oh, I know.
00:34:08And I think I know
00:34:08how to help you
00:34:09take it down.
00:34:11Again.
00:34:12You don't used to me
00:34:13anymore, Adrian.
00:34:14I only needed you
00:34:15to help me get rid
00:34:15of Jessica.
00:34:16to the new CEO
00:34:20of the Miller Empire.
00:34:24Well, I couldn't have

00:34:28Christmas surprise for you.
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.
00:34:45The Miller family
00:34:46threatened to kill you, Jess.
00:34:47I had no option
00:34:49but to vanish.
00:34:51Oh, 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
00:34:56into the country,
00:34:57I promised.
00:34:59Daniel,
00:35:00how 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 too alone.
00:35:18Two more, please.
00:35:22Daniel.
00:35:25Adrian.
00:35:26Long time no see, buddy.
00:35:28Oh, my God.
00:35:29How long has it been?
00:35:30Ten years.
00:35:31Ten years.
00:35:32Oh, my God.
00:35:34The last time
00:35:35I must have seen you
00:35:35was at law school.
00:35:38Yep.
00:35:39Go Reds.
00:35:41Go Reds.
00:35:42What are you doing here?
00:35:45Just in town
00:35:46to run some errands.
00:35:47Just want to come here
00:35:48for a quick bite.
00:35:49Nice, man.
00:35:50Nice.
00:35:51I saw your date earlier.
00:35:53She looks pretty.
00:35:55Yeah, my wife.
00:35:56Your wife?
00:35:57Yeah, Jess.
00:35:58You're married?
00:35:59Yes.
00:36:00Yeah, you have to
00:36:01introduce me to her.
00:36:02Come on,
00:36:02let's go say hi.
00:36:03Come and say hello.
00:36:05It's good to see you, buddy.
00:36:05Good to see you, too, man.
00:36:07Jess,
00:36:08I wanted you to meet
00:36:09an old friend of mine.
00:36:10Adrian, this is Jess.
00:36:12Jess, this is Adrian.
00:36:13We went to law school together.
00:36:14I don't want to see him.
00:36:25I don't want to see him.
00:36:29You two know each other.
00:36:31Yes, Daniel.
00:36:32I was her first boyfriend.
00:36:38Come on, Jess.
00:36:39Don't you miss me.
00:36:40I don't want to see you
00:36:42anymore.
00:36:43You know you're still
00:36:44in love with me, Jess.
00:36:46No, I don't.
00:36:50I think you should leave, Adrian.
00:36:52Okay, Daniel?
00:36:54Relax.
00:36:55Now.
00:37:01I'm leaving.
00:37:01I'm leaving.
00:37:02Does she know she's lying?
00:37:12Force.
00:37:13Adrian Wesley now represents
00:37:15Lisa and Kristen Miller.
00:37:16They want to protest the word.
00:37:18I should have known.
00:37:19What else?
00:37:21Adrian also used me, Jessica.
00:37:23Actually,
00:37:24he's the one who sabotaged
00:37:26Jessica's immigration paperwork.
00:37:27It caused all this trouble.
00:37:29That son of a bitch.
00:37:35We need to win this war.
00:37:37Do whatever it takes.
00:37:46Daniel?
00:37:49Sorry.
00:37:50Did I wake you?
00:37:51No, can...
00:37:53Can you join me in bed, please?
00:37:55Are you sure?
00:38:05I just...
00:38:06I wanted to apologize
00:38:08for earlier.
00:38:10The restaurant.
00:38:14I got a bit carried away.
00:38:16Jess, you don't need to apologize.
00:38:19Adrian's an asshole.
00:38:20He's just trying to do it
00:38:21to get under your skin.
00:38:22I didn't care for Adrian once.
00:38:26But he just destroyed
00:38:27everything we had.
00:38:30I want you to know
00:38:31that I'm here
00:38:34because of you.
00:38:37And you're the only one
00:38:40who I love.
00:38:42No 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
00:39:19as the new CEO?
00:39:20If only you were with me.
00:39:21Okay.
00:39:21Okay.
00:39:21Okay.
00:39:28You're going to do great today.
00:39:52Jess, here's your coffee.
00:39:59What's wrong?
00:40:00No, it's just...
00:40:00It's this job.
00:40:01It's all so new to me.
00:40:04Okay.
00:40:05Calm down.
00:40:06Remember,
00:40:07you're the CEO.
00:40:08Which means
00:40:09you're the boss.
00:40:10Yeah, but I don't know
00:40:11how to be a boss.
00:40:14Hey, Jess.
00:40:16Look at you
00:40:16sitting in the big chair now.
00:40:19Oh, Giovanna.
00:40:20I am so happy you're here.
00:40:23Aw.
00:40:25You must be Daniel.
00:40:27Jessica's been talking
00:40:28about you for days.
00:40:31I'm flattered.
00:40:32I really wish you could be here
00:40:34with me, G.
00:40:34It's exhausting.
00:40:36Oh, at least you have a job, Jess.
00:40:38I've been looking for work
00:40:39for the past two months.
00:40:42Jess?
00:40:42Yes?
00:40:44Do you like Gianna being here?
00:40:50Of course.
00:40:51We've been besties since...
00:40:53forever.
00:40:54Yeah, what kind of question is that?
00:40:56Well,
00:40:57why don't you use your CEO power
00:40:59and hire Gianna?
00:41:03Oh, I don't...
00:41:04I know what you mean!
00:41:05I don't understand.
00:41:07How would you
00:41:09like to come work
00:41:12for me?
00:41:13Of course.
00:41:14Of course.
00:41:16Okay, then.
00:41:17My first order
00:41:19as a CEO.
00:41:21Gianna,
00:41:22you are hired
00:41:24as my personal assistant.
00:41:26Oh, my God, Jess.
00:41:27Thank you so much.
00:41:29See?
00:41:30Being a boss is easy.
00:41:33You can do whatever you want.
00:41:42Oh, my God.
00:41:44What's wrong?
00:41:45The company's stock prices
00:41:47are dropping like crazy.
00:41:49What is happening?
00:41:51This isn't normal.
00:41:53The stock's getting dumped.
00:41:54Well, well, well.
00:41:57Looks like things
00:41:58aren't going so well.
00:42:00What did you do, Lisa?
00:42:01I asked Richard
00:42:02and some of the other investors
00:42:03to sell their stocks.
00:42:07The board members
00:42:07are not going to be happy
00:42:08about the stock prices, Jessica.
00:42:10What do you want?
00:42:11Resign
00:42:12as CEO
00:42:14or I will destroy
00:42:15this company.
00:42:17No way.
00:42:18Okay.
00:42:20Then I will destroy
00:42:21this company.
00:42:23Jessica,
00:42:23the board members
00:42:24are asking to meet with you.
00:42:25They're angry.
00:42:32What are you going to do, Jess?
00:42:35Okay.
00:42:35I'll meet with the board.
00:42:37Wait, Jess.
00:42:38Don't go.
00:42:40Take a seat.
00:42:42What is it?
00:42:43Lisa,
00:42:44are you sure
00:42:46the stock prices
00:42:47are going down?
00:42:48Because to me,
00:42:49they seem to be going up
00:42:50and up.
00:42:52That's impossible.
00:42:53You would need
00:42:53at least a billion dollars.
00:42:56I guess anything's possible
00:42:57these days.
00:42:59God damn it!
00:43:00God, she's annoying.
00:43:07You must be
00:43:08my lucky star.
00:43:17Daniel?
00:43:20Gianna?
00:43:21I know
00:43:22who you are, Daniel.
00:43:23You're the son
00:43:24of James Thornton.
00:43:26How'd you find out?
00:43:27My identity
00:43:28is meant to be a secret.
00:43:29I used to work
00:43:30for 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,
00:43:39your father fired me
00:43:40because I tried
00:43:41to help Jessica.
00:43:42I'm sorry, Gianna.
00:43:44It's okay.
00:43:46I 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,
00:43:53but she loves you.
00:43:56I can see that.
00:43:58You really think so?
00:44:00Yes.
00:44:01I love her too.
00:44:03She's the best thing
00:44:06that'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.
00:44:22Adrian threatened her.
00:44:30Adrian threatened my mom
00:44:31on the phone.
00:44:32He said he was going to
00:44:33block her from
00:44:34entering the country.
00:44:36What should we do?
00:44:38Jess,
00:44:39I don't want you
00:44:40to worry about it.
00:44:41I'm going to make sure
00:44:42your mom gets here safely.
00:44:43I'm going to make sure
00:44:43your mom gets here safely.
00:44:52I need you to make sure
00:45:02Jessica's mom gets here safely.
00:45:04Look her on the first flight
00:45:05out tomorrow.
00:45:05Got it, boss.
00:45:06She'll be here in town
00:45:07the day after tomorrow.
00:45:09Good.
00:45:16Jess has been taken care of.
00:45:18Your mom's going to be here
00:45:20the 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.
00:45:33Would you have in mind?
00:45:35I was thinking...
00:45:37I want to buy a house.
00:45:40Yes.
00:45:51So?
00:45:54Do you like this place?
00:45:56It's amazing.
00:45:57But, Jess,
00:45:59I appreciate the gesture.
00:46:01But you don't need
00:46:01to buy me a house.
00:46:04No.
00:46:05No.
00:46:06I insist.
00:46:07You have done so much
00:46:09to help me.
00:46:10Besides,
00:46:11we can live together
00:46:12here.
00:46:14Miss Thornton.
00:46:15Hi.
00:46:16Your father is here.
00:46:17Are you meeting
00:46:18here?
00:46:24Well,
00:46:25I've never met
00:46:27your parents.
00:46:28So,
00:46:29I'm pretty excited
00:46:30to meet an in-law.
00:46:33Oh,
00:46:34is...
00:46:35Is that him?
00:46:36Come on,
00:46:37let's go say hi.
00:46:38Jess,
00:46:39wait.
00:46:39Uh,
00:46:40wait,
00:46:40wait,
00:46:40wait,
00:46:40wait,
00:46:40wait,
00:46:41wait,
00:46:41wait,
00:46:41wait,
00:46:41wait,
00:46:41wait,
00:46:41wait,
00:46:42wait,
00:46:42wait.
00:46:42Um,
00:46:43I might not have told my dad
00:46:47about you and our marriage.
00:46:48Why?
00:46:49Uh,
00:46:50because he has a heart condition.
00:46:53I think it's best
00:46:56you stay here.
00:46:57Okay.
00:46:59I'll just
00:47:00stay here then.
00:47:04Good.
00:47:09Dad,
00:47:10come on.
00:47:11Daniel,
00:47:12what the hell?
00:47:12Jessica's here.
00:47:13She can't see her face.
00:47:14Don't take them off.
00:47:16I want to talk to you about Ashley,
00:47:19Daniel.
00:47:25Why hasn't Daniel told his father about me and our wedding?
00:47:29Ashley,
00:47:29really,
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.
00:47:41said it makes me look more grounded than approachable.
00:47:49And 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?
00:48:05Do we have to talk about this right now?
00:48:12I held up my end of the bargain,
00:48:14Daniel.
00:48:14I want this deal done now.
00:48:17Actually,
00:48:18Clara isn't safe yet.
00:48:20Lisa Miller might try and be sabotaging everything.
00:48:22This is why you don't mess with the Miller family.
00:48:26You should have left it alone.
00:48:27All 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,
00:48:36Jess.
00:48:47Dad,
00:48:48this is Jess.
00:48:49Jess,
00:48:50this is Dad.
00:48:51You can call him Jimmy.
00:48:53Jimmy?
00:48:56I'm Jimmy,
00:48:58sweetie.
00:48:59It's lovely to meet you,
00:49:00Jimmy.
00:49:01And can I just say,
00:49:02that is a lovely Hawaiian shirt.
00:49:04It really,
00:49:05really suits you.
00:49:06Well,
00:49:07thank you,
00:49:08Jessica.
00:49:09It's,
00:49:09uh,
00:49:10one I'm fond of.
00:49:12So,
00:49:13who is Ashley?
00:49:15I heard you guys talking about her earlier.
00:49:18Oh,
00:49:19she's just,
00:49:20uh,
00:49:20old family friend.
00:49:23Oh.
00:49:23They 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,
00:49:33uh,
00:49:33approaching soon,
00:49:34and,
00:49:35uh,
00:49:35I'd like Daniel to attend.
00:49:37Damn.
00:49:38Got to reminisce about the good old days.
00:49:40No,
00:49:41it's,
00:49:41it's fine.
00:49:42Honestly,
00:49:42it's lovely to hear about Daniel's childhood
00:49:44and more about his life.
00:49:45You bastard child.
00:49:53Well,
00:49:54well,
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?
00:50:06Looks like he belongs in a circus.
00:50:12How dare you,
00:50:12Kristen?
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.
00:50:21Don'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,
00:50:40Jessica.
00:50:41Especially your mother.
00:50:43The home wrecking tramp.
00:50:46A whore.
00:50:48Oh.
00:50:55Your family suck,
00:50:58Jessica.
00:50:59Especially your mother.
00:51:01The home wrecking tramp.
00:51:04A whore.
00:51:05Oh.
00:51:06Damn!
00:51:11How dare you slap me?
00:51:14That is enough, Kristen.
00:51:18You're not going to lay a hand on my wife.
00:51:23Daddies,
00:51:24you need to leave now.
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
00:51:33I will call security.
00:51:36You
00:51:37will regret this.
00:51:40I've heard that a thousand times.
00:51:43Now leave.
00:51:44Okay.
00:51:45Thank you, Jessica.
00:51:55You stood up for me.
00:51:57Well, we're a family, Jimmy.
00:52:00That's what I'm supposed to do.
00:52:06Well,
00:52:06I appreciate it.
00:52:09You're a nice girl.
00:52:10You found a good wife, son.
00:52:15Dad,
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,
00:52:29I just want to focus on you and I.
00:52:30I'm not the jealous type.
00:52:33Plus,
00:52:34I don't want you to miss
00:52:35your first crush's way.
00:52:38Well,
00:52:39you decide, Daniel.
00:52:41Oh,
00:52:41there's a long party.
00:52:43You two want to come?
00:52:44It's in three hours.
00:52:47Yeah.

00:52:49will go.
00:52:50Great.

00:52:53Bye.

00:53:10dad 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,
00:53:23my dad's here.
00:53:25He's going to join us later.
00:53:26Okay.
00:53:28The bidding's about to start.
00:53:30Oh,
00:53:35the bitch is here.
00:53:36I 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,

00:56:08I don't know what to say.
00:56:12Jess,
00:56:13I know it's a lot to handle.
00:56:14You're just going to trust me.
00:56:15Yeah,
00:56:15but why didn't you just tell me in the first place?
00:56:17Daniel.

00:56:27Oh,
00:56:27this could get interesting.
00:56:29look who's all alone.
00:56:45You know,
00:56:45just 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.
00:56:53Poor babe.
00:56:54Still played by the big boys.
00:56:56James Thornton and his son have been playing you all along.
00:57:00But,
00:57:01what did you just say?
00:57:03James Thornton and his son?
00:57:05Wait, Jess,
00:57:06you didn't know?
00:57:07Daniel Thornton is his son.
00:57:09Oh my God.
00:57:12I didn't know that.
00:57:14Now that I do.
00:57:16Wow.
00:57:17That's enough.
00:57:19Oh,
00:57:20excuse me,
00:57:21Mr. Thornton.
00:57:22Crown Prince,
00:57:23said of the Thornton family.
00:57:34This man's been lying to you all along.
00:57:37Poor little girl's got no one to trust.
00:57:39Both of you,
00:57:40get out of here.
00:57:44Hey.
00:57:44Jess,
00:57:53I've been trying to tell you.
00:57:54Am I a joker to you?
00:57:55No.
00:57:56What do you mean?
00:57:57You.
00:57:58And 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,
00:58:05Jess.
00:58:06I can't,
00:58:07I can't trust you.
00:58:09You lied to me.
00:58:11You're right.
00:58:12You're right.
00:58:14I 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.
00:58:42Five years ago?
00:58:43Yes.
00:58:44I had a party.
00:58:47I was drunk and I fell in a pool.
00:58:58Oh, thank God you're alive.
00:59:04I was drowning and you saved my life.
00:59:06But 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.
00:59:25You 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, I saved you and you saved me.
01:00:07I guess we just belong together.
01:00:13Ew.
01:00:14Corny.
01:00:17But just no more secrets.
01:00:23Okay?
01:00:24I promise.
01:00:25No more secrets.
01:00:45You'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.
01:00:55Giannis 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 and I'll bring you straight to the office.
01:01:13Thanks.
01:01:14You're the best.
01:01:15Well, 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?
01:01:37I just want to share with you some interesting facts about your dear husband, Daniel Thornton.
01:01:44Gianna, 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, it's already work.
01:01:58Because Daniel already told me everything.
01:02:01Everything?
01:02:02Are you so sure?
01:02:03Yeah.
01:02:05Him and his father came clean about everything.
01:02:07There's nothing more to hide.
01:02:09And 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.
01:02:35They 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.
01:02:54Daniel's picking my mother up from the airport himself.
01:03:01I'll be seeing her soon.
01:03:04What 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
01:03:23meet with her?
01:03:25And 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.
01:03:35Just like old times.
01:03:37Yeah.
01:03:38Well, I don't believe a word you say.
01:03:42Daniel 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.
01:04:05Well, you did bring me back here.
01:04:07Right now, I just want to see my daughter.
01:04:10Well done, sir.
01:04:11Not so fast, Danny boy.
01:04:13You'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.
01:04:37Watch 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?
01:05:10Jess?
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!
01:05:25Kitty, it's just, uh, looks like you lost, Daniel.
01:05:29You'll never get in the back.
01:05:52Oh, thank God you're alive.
01:05:55That was the problem with Clara.
01:06:22Her paperwork was flawless.
01:06:23You're right, boss.
01:06:25I check with customers in the U.S. C.I.S.
01:06:28The label confirms that she illegally entered the country.
01:06:31Good.
01:06:32What is it, boss?
01:06:36Agents, do you think?
01:06:37Wait.
01:06:38What?
01:06:39This is a mistake.
01:06:40No.
01:06:42Jess!
01:06:42Jess!
01:06:43Baby!
01:06:44Mom!
01:06:44The ice agents weren't real.
01:06:49They were hired by Adrian and Lisa to kidnap Clara.
01:06:52Hold on, Frank.
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.
01:07:07Well, well, well, Clara, I bet you didn't expect to see me again, did you?
01:07:21We finally have what it takes to get it all back?
01:07:24You 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 illegally came into the country.
01:07:49It was a setup.
01:07:50Do you actually expect me to believe that?
01:07:53After all the lies, you're so full of shit, Daniel!
01:08:04Hello, 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 disagree.
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.
01:08:36This 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.
01:08:50And what is it?
01:08:52An agreement signing everything over to us.
01:08:55The house,
01:08:57company,
01:08:58everything.
01:09:07Signed.
01:09:09Now let her go.
01:09:11God, you are so nice, sis.
01:09:15What more do you want?
01:09:18Get down on your knees
01:09:19and show that you know your place.
01:09:24Get down on your knees
01:09:26and show that you know your place.
01:09:29Wait.
01:09:30That's better.
01:09:35Now bark like a dog.
01:09:47Come on.
01:09:49That's enough, Kristen.
01:09:56Fuck.
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.
01:10:09Oh, my God.
01:10:11Daniel!
01:10:14I can't.
01:10:16Come on.
01:10:16Mom, we need to be here with it.
01:10:17Mom, we gotta go.
01:10:19Come on.
01:10:20Daniel!
01:10:21No!
01:10:26Jess.
01:10:29No, don't.
01:10:29Don'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.
01:10:39Well, the doctor said it was nothing serious,
01:10:50so you'll be out of here soon.
01:10:53Jess, I just want to apologize.
01:10:56I am so sorry.
01:10:58Daniel, 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.
01:11:09You'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.
01:11:38Jess, when you see, we've been rehearsing this whole Christmas.
01:11:44There's no better time to do this.
01:11:46You're right.
01:11:49We're ready, officer.
01:11:50Let'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, and the other one said it was eight months ago.
01:12:05We lied, officer, but it was five years ago at a pool party.
01:12:11And we had our first kiss when we first met.
01:12:13It sounds pretty far-fetched, but for some reason, I want to give you two the benefit of the doubt.
01:12:23It sounds pretty far-fetched, but for some reason, I 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, well, that's my interview done.
01:13:00You two are quite the couple.
01:13:03Thank you, officer.
01:13:05Daniel.
01:13:06Daniel.
01:13:07She's coming.
01:13:08Who's coming?
01:13:11Your fiancée.
01:13:17That's who.
01:13:22Your fiancée.
01:13:24That's who.
01:13:26Ashley.
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, hmm?
01:13:39Adrian's told me all about you.
01:13:42I don't know what Adrian told you, but it's not what you think.
01:13:47Daniel was supposed to marry me, and 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.
01:14:35And if you come for the Thorntons, the Miller Empire is going to come for you so hard.
01:14:47You've got guts, Jessica.
01:14:49I like you.
01:14:54I 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, but he was too afraid of his father to ever go after
01:15:16his true love.
01:15:17But I guess I'm happy that he's found someone who wants the same things as him.
01:15:23So...
01:15:25That's it?
01:15:30That's it.
01:15:34Enjoy your happy ending, darling.
01:15:41Andrea, bring the car around.
01:15:43Did that actually just happen?
01:15:48Yeah.
01:15:49Wow.
01:15:51You two really don't let anyone or anything get in the way of true love.
01:15:56You didn't see that coming.
01:15:57This is all your fault, Mom.
01:16:02If you wouldn't have been so reckless, then 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?
01:16:09You should be here right 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.
01:16:34What did you do, Adrian?
01:16:36Well, me, myself, I done nothing illegal.
01:16:39You two, on the other hand, that's a different story.
01:16:43You set us up!
01:16:45I'm just ensuring my own safety.
01:16:48After all, I kept my hands clean.
01:16:51Ow!
01:16:56You're not going to get away with this, asshole!
01:16:59I already have.
01:17:03I remember when this place was filled with warmth and laughter.
01:17:11Used to be a real family home back then, but then things just went south.
01:17:17Things will be fine again, Mom, I promise.
01:17:19We'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.
01:17:31Mom.
01:17:35Jessica?
01:17:36I 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, but I want to try.
01:17:50James, you kept us apart for so many years.
01:17:53It's going to be hard to forgive and forget.
01:17:55I know, Clara.
01:17:56Jess, are you all right?
01:18:04Yeah, no, I'm...
01:18:06I'm fine.
01:18:07You know, I just feel...
01:18:10I just feel...
01:18:10nauseous, that's all.
01:18:12Have you been getting any other symptoms, like...
01:18:15dizziness or fatigue?
01:18:18I don't think, yeah, but I just thought that was...
01:18:20from all the stress.
01:18:21Sweetheart, you'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!
01:18:49Daniel.
01:18:51There's something you need to do.
01:18:56What's this?
01:18:58This is a ring your grandma left.
01:19:01And I think this is the perfect time to use it.
01:19:05Go, grandma.
01:19:07We're going to do this?
01:19:07Yeah.
01:19:08Go.
01:19:10No.
01:19:18Jess.
01:19:20Jess!
01:19:21Jess, I know we've only ever spent time together a week during Christmas.
01:19:27And we've been through so much in that time.
01:19:30And over the past five years, all I've wanted to do is be with you.
01:19:35And I've had to endure the pain of that not being possible.
01:19:38I want to spend every waking moment in time with you.
01:19:41What I'm trying to say is, Jess.
01:19:47Will you marry me?
01:19:51For real this time?
01:19:53Okay.
01:19:54Yes, Daniel.
01:19:54Yes, I will marry you.
01:19:56Yes!
01:19:56Really?
01:19:57Yes!
01:19:58Yes!
01:19:58Yes, I will marry you.
01:19:59Yes, I will marry you.
01:19:59Yes, I will marry you.
01:20:00Yes, I will marry you.
01:20:01Yes, I will marry you.
01:20:02Yes, I will marry you.
01:20:03Yes, I will marry you.
01:20:04Yes, I will marry you.
01:20:05Yes, I will marry you.
01:20:06Yes, I will marry you.
01:20:07Yes, I will marry you.
01:20:08Yes, I will marry you.
01:20:09Yes, I will marry you.
01:20:10Yes, I will marry you.
01:20:11Yes, I will marry you.
01:20:12Yes, I will marry you.
01:20:13Yes, I will marry you.
01:20:14Yes, I will marry you.
01:20:15Yes, I will marry you.
