00:00:00We had boyfriends? Interesting.
00:00:11I can't believe we did that.
00:00:14Mia, will you marry me?
00:00:17Yes! Oh my god!
00:00:22I can sing to you.
00:00:24Perhaps this will happen to a member?
00:00:34I've got as much.
00:00:36It's me.
00:00:38Your beloved mother?
00:00:40She would never find out.
00:00:45Now that's what we're talking about, James.
00:00:54Anyone here?
00:01:10What do you want from me?
00:01:12What do you want from me?
00:01:25It's time to tell the truth, Richard. Don't you think?
00:01:34Please, put the gun down.
00:01:38You don't want to end up like this.
00:01:41Mia is the only one in love.
00:02:07You don't want to end up like this.
00:02:12Mack Allen.
00:02:13Neat.
00:02:14Okay.
00:02:17Marriage.
00:02:19Suffocating.
00:02:23Tell me about it.
00:02:27Sounds like you've got something you want to say.
00:02:32Family pressures, right?
00:02:33Want to talk?
00:02:43My family have been on my case for years.
00:02:46It's like they've already chosen my future spouse.
00:02:53My family wants to plan my entire life.
00:02:56My family wants to plan my entire life.
00:03:02I'm James.
00:03:04James Turner, by the way.
00:03:08I'm Mia.
00:03:09Pleasure to meet you.
00:03:14It's our endless battle.
00:03:20It's my new comrade.
00:03:26James, right?
00:03:40Fancy seeing you here again.
00:03:42Mia.
00:03:43Must have a fade.
00:03:45Or you just come here a little too often.
00:03:50Scotch. Neat.
00:03:51Got it.
00:03:55How are things going on your end?
00:03:58My mom calls me every single day to see if I'm bringing someone home for Thanksgiving dinner.
00:04:06And what was your response?
00:04:11I said yes just to stop her calls, but I don't think there's anyone.
00:04:15You?
00:04:19My parents are obsessed with my kids.
00:04:22Even though I'll still see them.
00:04:24Splash please.
00:04:35Here, to our endless battle.
00:04:37Mia.
00:04:47I've been thinking.
00:04:49Why don't we help each other out here?
00:04:50We help each other out here.
00:05:06What do you mean?
00:05:09Maybe we can be the plus one for each other, so our families will stop pushing us.
00:05:15Fake boyfriend? Interesting.
00:05:20Only once. We can be free for a long time.
00:05:25It's not what I usually do, but maybe it's exactly what I need right now.
00:05:32This night is just getting more interesting.
00:05:36Sounds like the craziest night I've ever had.
00:05:39Not yet. Wait till Thanksgiving.
00:05:41Okay, boyfriend. Why don't you introduce yourself more to me?
00:05:48Well, I own a real estate company. We work with many partners on their projects.
00:05:55You sure look like a boss. The scotch gives it away.
00:05:59All right, enough about me. Tell me something about yourself.
00:06:04Well, I'm an artist and a gallery owner.
00:06:09Not to show off, but you've probably seen a lot of my work around Manhattan already.
00:06:14Wait, are you Mia Davis? That Mia Davis?
00:06:21In the flesh, darling.
00:06:23I understand the emergence, but this is not how negotiation works.
00:06:34I need this to be done in three days.
00:06:37Our investors are not gonna wait for us.
00:06:40Anderson, I assure you, we are doing everything we can.
00:06:44I trust you because you are the best I've got.
00:06:48We won't let you down.
00:06:49We won't let you down.
00:06:50We won't let you down.
00:07:22Hey there.
00:07:24Mia, what a pleasant surprise. How did you have time to call me today?
00:07:29Is this a bad time? You sound like you've had a rough day.
00:07:34It was one of those days.
00:07:36Well, sounds like you could use a break. How about a drink to unwind later?
00:07:43Let me check.
00:07:47Yeah, I can really use that. I'll meet you at the same bar.
00:07:52Knowing my mom, she'll definitely want you to stay over.
00:08:05So we'll probably spend three days in one bedroom.
00:08:10After that, we'll be free to go back to our regular lives.
00:08:13Sounds like a plan.
00:08:15Here we go, James. Remember, we're a couple deeply in love.
00:08:31Got it.
00:08:32Mom, I'm home.
00:08:41Mia!
00:08:44It's been so long.
00:08:46Mom, this is James, my boyfriend.
00:08:50Pleasure to meet you, Mrs. Davis. Mia's told you so much you've broken.
00:08:53Please, call me Maria.
00:08:57Call my name.
00:08:58Help herself with some cookies.
00:09:00Before I finish dressing with turkey.
00:09:05So far, so good.
00:09:08Let's keep it up.
00:09:09You know, I'm actually enjoying this day.
00:09:20Me too.
00:09:21I feel like we're a real couple.
00:09:26So, you two, tell me how you met.
00:09:32Of course.
00:09:33It was a charming little cafe on the 3rd Avenue.
00:09:38You know, we're sitting alone, reading a chat to meet you idiots.
00:09:42And everybody's striking out the conversation.
00:09:46Oh, how I met you.
00:09:50I'm so happy you guys met each other.
00:09:54It's been too long for me to walk from somewhere.
00:09:57So deep.
00:10:03Oh, my God.
00:10:24Mia, your mom's here.
00:10:26What do we do?
00:10:28Uh, quick.
00:10:29Come in here.
00:10:33I can see you had a lovely night. Stop it mom, you're making it awkward. Look at you, all
00:10:52glowing.
00:10:53I'll do everything for my princess. Okay, I think the couple needs their alone time now.
00:11:06Okay, okay, just don't take too long. And shouldn't you get back to the city today?
00:11:21I have to say, it was quite a play in your house. It was perfect. They all bought it.
00:11:28Remember how your mom almost got us in the bedroom. My heart was about to jump out when
00:11:34I heard that knock. But we made it. So, has it been easier for you with your parents since
00:11:43our last visit? They just won't let the topic off you. Same here. But now, I'm going to
00:11:50stop asking me about the wedding. I'm going to lose my mind.
00:11:57Let's just share the night we have right now. Well, we still can.
00:12:05You know, James, it's nights like these that really make me appreciate the simple things
00:12:21in life. I feel the same. I know there's beauty in commitment, but shouldn't it be our own life
00:12:30choice to make? Exactly. I'd rather cherish these moments with you and my friends. Telling me
00:12:39to rush into a life? Raising kids in a house and giving up all of my freedoms? No thank you.
00:12:54Wait. I have an idea. It might help both of us. I'm all ears.
00:13:04Thinking. What if we turn the tables on our families? Thinking. What if we turn the tables
00:13:18on our families? Please elaborate. What if we consider a contract marriage? A contract marriage?
00:13:32Yeah. Our families will be satisfied while we actually live a free life. We'll make a legal contract
00:13:39with maybe separate bedrooms, financial terms and so on. Oh. No feelings should be included.
00:13:49This is huge. I need to think about it. I know. It's not something you deal with the person whom you just met.
00:14:01But think about this. The contract will satisfy our parents' expectations. So we can take control of our own lives
00:14:09without their interference. It's the perfect solution to our current dilemma. It's just, like I said, love and marriage are not supposed to be contractual. They should be based on emotions and connection that grows naturally.
00:14:30You get it, Mia. I do. But sometimes life doesn't follow our script. And we need to adapt to that. Our life won't change a bit. Just more freedom with this contract.
00:14:43But what about the no emotions term? Should we really cut off our feelings like that? It's necessary. We need to avoid the situation of falling in love with each other. This will make things difficult.
00:15:00You do make a good point. I do want to take control over my own destiny again. But we need to set boundaries. Conditions. We'll stick with friendship. Contractual partners.
00:15:22Agreed, Mia. I'll write the legal contract. And we should both be clear about all the terms.
00:15:31Oh, and one more thing, James. We need to keep our personal lives separate from all of this. We both continue to pursue our goals, passions, and relationships.
00:15:43Absolutely. Our contract won't affect Daniel foreign lives. We can make it done tomorrow. We'll follow our script. We'll take care of everything.
00:15:55Deal.
00:15:56Deal.
00:16:08I can't believe we're actually doing this.
00:16:13Yeah, we've got that formula. Let's go through this country together.
00:16:21Okay.
00:16:22Separate bedrooms.
00:16:28Uh, no feelings clause.
00:16:33Um, and it's clear financial terms.
00:16:41Yep.
00:16:43We'll be committed to each other from now on.
00:16:46There is, uh, no feelings clause.
00:17:12No feelings clause.
00:17:13I just can't believe we did that.
00:17:18So, what's next?
00:17:21We'll tell our parents and make it official.
00:17:24I'll propose to you in your apartment and send pictures to our families.
00:17:29Well, it's a lot to get done just to prove we're getting married.
00:17:35Yes, then we'll plan a wedding so everyone will buy it.
00:17:39It's all part of the plan.
00:17:42I really want to get this out of my head.
00:17:45Can we just get it over with so we can move on with our lives?
00:17:58Did you turn the camera on?
00:18:01Yeah, it's working.
00:18:05Mia, there is something I'm wanting to ask you tonight.
00:18:12Yes?
00:18:17Mia, will you marry me?
00:18:20Oh my god, James. Yes!
00:18:28Oh my god.
00:18:29I can't believe we just did that.
00:18:44I can't believe we just did that.
00:18:57It's all part of that.
00:18:59This is our first big show on the stage.
00:19:15We have to make sure that we look like a happy couple in front of everyone.
00:19:20Of course.
00:19:21No mistake is allowed tonight.
00:19:27No mistake is allowed tonight.
00:19:28No mistake is allowed tonight.
00:19:34Any tune in?
00:19:35Is there anything we want to do in the world?
00:19:38Another successful play.
00:19:57It's getting harder for me to tell between all this and the truth.
00:20:02I know, but we have to stay firm.
00:20:06Well, focus on the bigger picture.
00:20:10Neither of us want a real marriage right now.
00:20:14And we still have our wedding in two days.
00:20:22Let's get some rest.
00:20:24Good night.
00:20:25Good night.
00:20:36Mia, are you okay?
00:20:46Please, open up.
00:20:50Talk to me.
00:20:52I can't do this, James.
00:20:57At the wedding, I saw everyone's faces.
00:21:01They were so happy and blessed us with their whole hearts.
00:21:07I feel like I betrayed every one of them.
00:21:12But we are already here.
00:21:16There is no way of going back.
00:21:19I saw their faces.
00:21:22They believed in us.
00:21:24It was all a huge lie.
00:21:28I can't imagine what would happen if they found out the truth.
00:21:33It's not easy for me either.
00:21:36But we have to hang in there.
00:21:39We can't let them down right now.
00:21:42I just wish it didn't have to be like this.
00:22:05I wish that too, Mia.
00:22:07But I promise, we can get through.
00:22:10I promise you.
00:22:34James, I have something that I want to say.
00:22:38Mia, we agreed.
00:22:47No feelings.
00:22:53I know.
00:22:55But...
00:22:57don't come in and seek a friend.
00:23:06Please enjoy your evening.
00:23:24James...
00:23:25Let's do this.
00:23:55James?
00:24:22James?
00:24:26Where are you?
00:24:28Right here, Mia.
00:24:30Is there any candle?
00:24:38James.
00:24:45So, any clue on that note?
00:24:51I'm sorry.
00:25:04Hello?
00:25:09I hope you enjoyed the champagne I sent you, a gift to a celebratory or fake wedding.
00:25:24Someone knows our secret.
00:25:28What should we do?
00:25:30You know, I've been thinking about the date we met.
00:25:43It feels like a lifetime ago.
00:25:44I know, and I'm glad that I met you.
00:25:56You're such a special woman, and I've never met anyone like you before.
00:26:11You too.
00:26:12I'm glad I met a real gentleman.
00:26:24Even though it's a dramatic fake wedding, I'm happy to have you here with me.
00:26:39It's not a fairy tale.
00:26:49It's a bloody reality.
00:26:52But, I still like it.
00:26:55It's our story.
00:26:57It's our story.
00:27:21What's happening?
00:27:22We're stuck.
00:27:28What do we do?
00:27:31I need to be there on time.
00:27:34Let's call the building.
00:27:37They should come and fix this.
00:27:49There's no signal.
00:27:50We could be trapped in here for hours.
00:27:53We won't.
00:27:56Someone will notice the elevator went wrong and come to fix this.
00:28:01We just need to be patient.
00:28:08What's that for?
00:28:10Just to give us some strength.
00:28:12Friends can hug too.
00:28:14Okay.
00:28:23I can't believe this is happening.
00:28:30Well, at least it's a short break from our complex life.
00:28:36You always find a way to be positive, don't you?
00:28:46James, what if people find out about our contract marriage?
00:28:51They'd be so disappointed.
00:28:54We're doing everything we can.
00:28:57So far, we did good.
00:28:59Everyone is happy.
00:29:01I just think about how far we've come.
00:29:06Since the day we met, there was the gala, the proposal, the wedding, and now blackmail?
00:29:16It's like an endless spy game.
00:29:21I know.
00:29:23But we're in this together.
00:29:25We chose this to take control of our life.
00:29:29And now we are tied together by fate.
00:29:32We are one.
00:29:34I suddenly feel so relieved.
00:29:42Maybe it's because I'm not alone anymore.
00:29:47I know.
00:29:49I always rush to my friends after a bed day.
00:29:52And here I am with a dearest friend.
00:29:55And now maybe I can finally get some space from my mom, now that I'm busy with my new husband.
00:30:04Mine too. My mom called the other day, but when she saw you walk up from the bath, she hung up as soon as she could.
00:30:12But of course, she made fun of us.
00:30:15Or maybe next time I can show up even sexier and then she can make fun of you some more.
00:30:23I'm sexy now.
00:30:38Maybe we should talk about what just happened? The moment was...
00:30:44I enjoyed it. There's something I never thought I would say.
00:30:49But it's not what we expected.
00:30:52I thought we got into this to avoid marriage.
00:30:56Mia, I have to tell you, I don't want to lie to myself or to you anymore.
00:31:04I care about you more than I should.
00:31:07I don't want to hide my feelings and pretend nothing is there.
00:31:11I'm in love with you.
00:31:13I'm in love with you.
00:31:20I actually feel the exact same way.
00:31:25I can't stop thinking about you all the time.
00:31:31Although we got into this relationship to avoid affection, I'm glad that fate brought us together.
00:31:40Let's tell everyone the truth.
00:31:42Let's tell everyone the truth.
00:31:43I'm sure they will understand.
00:31:45Maybe mad at first, but they will be happy for us in the end.
00:31:49Our families will be shocked when they find out.
00:31:52I know, Mia, but it's time to set things right.
00:31:56It should be our priority right now.
00:31:58James, our parents aside, I'm really worried about that blackmail that we received at the bar.
00:32:20Who would be so interested in our personal matters?
00:32:25Mia, I have no idea.
00:32:28But I hired an investigator, hope she can bring me some valuable information.
00:32:33I have a feeling someone is watching us from the dark.
00:32:44We should have never gotten ourselves into this mess.
00:32:47This contract marriage was a stupid idea in hindsight, bringing us all of these unexpected problems.
00:32:56I chose this to live a better life, Mia.
00:33:06And yet, I feel that life is worse under the pretense.
00:33:11We will get ourselves out of this situation.
00:33:14We will find the right time to tell everyone the truth to our marriage.
00:33:19And we will for sure catch the person hunting us.
00:33:22It's just a little out there?
00:33:28I haven't practiced us the last day because I didn't wanna get this.
00:33:33Who's there?
00:34:03Anyone here?
00:34:10What do you want from me?
00:34:21You're exactly where I want you, Mia.
00:34:24Where am I?
00:34:27What did I do?
00:34:29I assure you, there's a misunderstanding.
00:34:33Please, just tell me what you want from me.
00:34:37Don't worry, you will know what we want soon enough.
00:34:40I just need you to behave right now.
00:34:42We can talk things out.
00:34:45You don't need to tie me to a chair.
00:34:48I will cooperate.
00:34:50If it is money, I can give it to you.
00:34:55Just let me go.
00:35:03Hello?
00:35:05Mr. Turner, it's time for you to decide.
00:35:26Mike, Maya's life depends on you.
00:35:29Don't bother.
00:35:30You won't recognize who I am.
00:35:33What matters is, Maya.
00:35:35You have 24 hours to prepare $5 million if you want to see her alive.
00:35:41Who are you and what do you want?
00:35:43That is not a question for me to answer.
00:35:46Just do as I said.
00:35:48I can't arrange that much money in such a short time.
00:35:52That's not my concern.
00:35:54Mr. Turner, you can't put a price on love, can you?
00:35:58I need to be sure she's okay.
00:36:00Let me talk to her.
00:36:02That won't be happening.
00:36:03I swear, if you dare to touch her, I will hunt you down and pull out your eyes myself.
00:36:20I don't know what to do, Scott.
00:36:21They're asking for $5 million in 24 hours.
00:36:24I can't lose her.
00:36:26Well, figure it out, James.
00:36:29I'll do everything I can.
00:36:31I can't lose Mia.
00:36:36I thought the relationship between you two was strictly based on the contract.
00:36:41We found each other the one we have been looking for our whole life.
00:36:46Oh, no.
00:36:47This was not meant to happen.
00:36:50I have to find her.
00:36:52I can't stand to see her in danger.
00:36:54We will.
00:36:56But who will commit such a horrible crime?
00:36:59Anyone ring the bell?
00:37:03Mia wouldn't hurt anyone.
00:37:05I can assure you.
00:37:06This has something to do with that blackmail we received.
00:37:11Blackmail?
00:37:14Someone has been stalking us.
00:37:16They know about the contract marriage and threaten to expose us.
00:37:19Whatever it takes, I will hunt this person down.
00:37:27Mark, please.
00:37:29I need your help.
00:37:30Mia's life is in danger.
00:37:32I wish I could, James.
00:37:35Five million is a lot.
00:37:37I can't pull those resources in such a short time.
00:37:42Save it, Mark.
00:37:43When it comes to your turn, I dropped a lot of things to help.
00:37:47You're a fucking nuisance.
00:37:49I guess our business partnership has also come to an end.
00:37:51I might be able to cash this out.
00:38:11Thank you for calling CPM Bank.
00:38:21Mr. Turner, how can we help you today?
00:38:26I have a certificate of deposit with your bank.
00:38:28I want to cash it out immediately.
00:38:31I understand the urgency.
00:38:34Please give us a moment.
00:38:35Can you get money for me in an hour?
00:38:46It's for an urgent matter.
00:38:49Sure.
00:38:50Since this is a huge sum of money, I will be needing you to come over.
00:38:55I will be there in 20 minutes.
00:38:56Please get the cash ready by then.
00:38:59Yes, sir.
00:39:00I'll know you.
00:39:01Great.
00:39:05Is it ready?
00:39:20Yes.
00:39:21Give me the location.
00:39:23Boom.
00:39:35I can't thank you enough for saving my life, James.
00:39:44Do anything to keep you safe.
00:39:46We're in this together.
00:39:52I thought I'd never see you again.
00:39:55I swear to you.
00:39:58We'll protect you with memory.
00:39:59I want to give you both an update.
00:40:16We are investigating the lead we got from the drop-off point.
00:40:20Our main focus is on tracking down the kidnappers and bringing them to justice.
00:40:26Thank you, Detective.
00:40:31We appreciate your effort.
00:40:39I'm so, so sorry about all of this, James.
00:40:45It's not your fault.
00:40:48We'll get through this.
00:40:51You.
00:40:51It's been a while since we had a piss moon like this.
00:41:19Yeah.
00:41:23It's nice to get a break from all the chaos.
00:41:39Mia.
00:41:40You won't believe this.
00:41:44What is it?
00:41:45A company chose us to partner in a luxury project.
00:41:50They love my pitch.
00:41:52Oh my God, James.
00:41:53That's amazing.
00:41:56I'm going to call my employees to announce this news.
00:42:02And an after party later?
00:42:06You know me too well.
00:42:07Will you pick me up later for a little celebration?
00:42:14Absolutely.
00:42:15I'll meet you at home after work.
00:42:16Yes.
00:42:17Yes.
00:42:17I needed to gather the people online for a meeting.
00:42:31We got that project and we need to present it to the client this afternoon.
00:42:48Wow, this is fantastic.
00:42:52I will gather them.
00:42:53Thank you all for your time.
00:43:12I'm eager to bring my team on board to execute this project.
00:43:15Before I finish, I'm just curious.
00:43:21Why you guys chose us out of all the companies in the world?
00:43:25Our president insisted you were the perfect fit.
00:43:29She said you're an old friend.
00:43:32An old friend?
00:43:33I'm not sure I know who it could be.
00:43:39You'll find out soon enough, James.
00:43:43For now, focus on getting the job done.
00:43:46For now, focus on getting the job done.

00:44:04For now, focus on getting the job done.
00:44:05What's wrong, James?
00:44:31What could that be?
00:44:32I don't know, but we are going to find out soon.
00:44:49Samantha, have you found anything?
00:44:52I have been waiting ages to hear from you.
00:44:55Hope you have news that I want to hear.
00:44:57James, we've made some significant progress.
00:45:02I think we are closed on covering who has been trying to blackmail you and Mia.
00:45:07I'm over yours, details please.
00:45:11We managed to trace the source of the blackmail.
00:45:14At times we found a connection to an individual named Richard Kingsley.
00:45:19Richard Kingsley?
00:45:21Never heard that name.
00:45:22And why would he do this?
00:45:24We're still walking on that part.
00:45:27We'll gather more evidence and get to the bottom of this.
00:45:31Thank you, Samantha.
00:45:33Keep me posted on any updates.
00:45:35I want to know everything about Richard Kingsley and his motives.
00:45:39Of course, we are so close to unraveling this mystery.
00:45:43I have received these pictures of you in the apartment.
00:46:03I tried to call you many times and you didn't answer.
00:46:06I thought something happened to you.
00:46:09I'm so sorry.
00:46:11I've been so engrossed in my painting.
00:46:14Everything's okay.
00:46:16I'm just glad you're okay.
00:46:18I'm safe and sound.
00:46:21Thank you for worrying about me so much.
00:46:24Samantha, the private detective I heart is close to finding the person behind all this.
00:46:31I won't let him walk in one piece after what he has done.
00:46:43You know, it's moments like these that really make me appreciate having you in my life, James.
00:46:50Contract or not.
00:46:52I feel the same way, Mia.
00:46:55I won't ever want to lose you.
00:46:57I've been working on this for a few weeks.
00:47:02It may not be to everyone's taste, but it means a lot to me.
00:47:11It's wonderful.
00:47:12You're really talented.
00:47:15Thank you so much for your support.
00:47:17It means the world to me.
00:47:27Hello?
00:47:28James, I trust you are well.
00:47:41I wanted to inform you that there is an urgent meeting scheduled regarding the latest project we are partnering up on.
00:47:48Sure.
00:47:49Where should we meet?
00:47:54I can rearrange some work to make it.
00:47:57That's great.
00:47:59Your expertise and insights have been invaluable to us.
00:48:04I'll be at your office at 3pm and we can go over all the details.
00:48:10Thank you for your recognition.
00:48:11I'm more than happy to lead this project to our huge success.
00:48:14Hi.
00:48:15I'm just calling to check if we should reschedule today's meeting.
00:48:16Hi, I'm just calling to check if we should reschedule today's video.
00:48:44Apologies, James. I wouldn't be able to make the meeting myself due to some unexpected events.
00:48:52But our president is on her way to meet with you herself.
00:48:56Wow, I was not aware of that.
00:49:00Maybe you can catch up with each other. It's a great opportunity.
00:49:05She surely is very excited about this.
00:49:14It's a great opportunity.
00:49:44You can just turn here. You're...
00:49:48Jimmy? Don't you remember me?
00:50:00I'm sorry, but I can see you.
00:50:03Perhaps...
00:50:07This will help us remember.
00:50:13I've fed as much.
00:50:16It's me.
00:50:18Your beloved Mabel.
00:50:19Mabel?
00:50:23What the...
00:50:25What the...
00:50:27You know, Mabel, next year is going to be a whole new world to me.
00:50:45I know, babe. I can't believe you're graduating. I'm deep flying.
00:51:01Life after college. It's a bit scary. But I'm so excited. I want to work in real estate and I can't wait what I can achieve.
00:51:13I'm sure nothing can stop you from your goal.
00:51:23I can't wait to graduate so we can get married.
00:51:26Yeah, I know.
00:51:30Should you lock the door?
00:51:31Of course I will.
00:51:35I hope you won't change after you leave.
00:51:38I won't.
00:51:39I won't.
00:51:55Mabel?
00:51:57James, I can't explain.
00:52:01I'm so sorry you have to find out like this, but Mabel and I have been together for a while now.
00:52:09I don't know.
00:52:10I don't know.
00:52:11I don't know.
00:52:12I don't know.
00:52:13I don't know.
00:52:14I don't know.
00:52:20Mabel?
00:52:22What are you doing here?
00:52:24It's Victoria.
00:52:26And...
00:52:28For business, of course, darling.
00:52:34What are you playing here?
00:52:36What's up with all the charade?
00:52:40Let's say...
00:52:42I wanted to see how have you been, James.
00:52:46You know...
00:52:48For the old time's sake.
00:52:50Old time's sake?
00:52:52He cheated on me with my best friend.
00:52:55What do you want?
00:52:57People change, James.
00:53:00And...
00:53:01I just can't live from my mind.
00:53:04How did you become the president of this company?
00:53:10What are you hiding?
00:53:12A woman like me can get whatever I want with just a little trick.
00:53:18See?
00:53:20I helped you got this project.
00:53:23I've missed you, James.
00:53:26Missed us.
00:53:28We should be together.
00:53:30I'm the only one who can help you.
00:53:34No, Victoria.
00:53:36I won't let you manipulate.
00:53:39Not again.
00:53:49You have always been a challenge, James.
00:53:52This is not how I imaged our reunion.
00:53:55If you come here to talk about that project, let's get to it.
00:54:00Otherwise, you should leave.
00:54:02Don't be so harsh.
00:54:04You want a business?
00:54:06We'll talk about business.
00:54:07Let's get professional.
00:54:11James, the reason I chose you is not only because of our past.
00:54:18I trust you and your ability.
00:54:21I know what you're capable of.
00:54:25Really?
00:54:27Oh, please.
00:54:29Put our history behind, will you?
00:54:32I pay responsibility to my company, too.
00:54:35Okay?
00:54:37I didn't take this job for fun.
00:54:41Fine.
00:54:42Let's be clear.
00:54:44I won't do anything that goes against my principles or the law.
00:54:51Agree, James.
00:54:53We'll keep it strictly professional.
00:55:05Scott.
00:55:23You won't believe what just happened.
00:55:26What's the matter?
00:55:27Wait.
00:55:28Mabel?
00:55:29Your ex-girlfriend from college?
00:55:31You haven't seen her in years, right?
00:55:33That's the one.
00:55:34She's now going by Victoria and she's the president of this major corporation.
00:55:37She wants my help on a project.
00:55:38I can't shake feeling that there's more to it.
00:55:39I think we have to wait for her move.
00:55:40I need to find out what's really going on.
00:55:41But I can't do it alone.
00:55:42Will you help me, Scott?
00:55:43Of course.
00:55:44I need to find out what's really going on.
00:55:45But I can't do it alone.
00:55:46Will you help me, Scott?
00:55:47Of course.
00:55:48Have you to help.
00:55:49She wants you involved in a realistic project.
00:55:50But it's more than just business.
00:55:51No matter how wager, this is an external project so I can't do it.
00:55:53I can't do it alone.
00:55:54What's the difference?
00:55:55What's the difference?
00:55:56What's going on?
00:55:57It's not that it's not an external project.
00:55:58I can't find out what we're going on.
00:55:59I can't help.
00:56:00How can we help you, Scott?
00:56:01How can we help you?
00:56:02How can we help you, Scott?
00:56:03How can we help you, Scott?
00:56:05I can't help you.
00:56:06I can help you, Scott.
00:56:07You can help you.
00:56:08He can help you, Scott.
00:56:09I can help you.
00:56:10Don't help you.
00:56:11She can help you.
00:56:12I can help you.
00:56:13I can help you.
00:56:17I'm sure of it.
00:56:19I had the same feeling. Nothing is ever clear about her.
00:56:22I don't want me yet to worry about this.
00:56:25She's working on an important artwork.
00:56:28And I promised I'll protect her.
00:56:31Of course.
00:56:33I'll try my best to find our victorious true intent.
00:56:37Thanks, man. What should I do without you?
00:56:47James, are you okay? You seem a little bit off tonight.
00:56:57It's great to make your work, babe. Just step with work, you know.
00:57:03Alright, it's just that we've been through a lot together.
00:57:08You don't need to hide anything from me.
00:57:11If you want to talk about something, we can figure it out together.
00:57:16Babe, it shouldn't worry you. I can handle it myself. Trust me.
00:57:23Okay. Just remember, I'm always here for you.
00:57:29If you want to talk things through or need some help, I'm here.
00:57:36Thank you, Mia. You focus on your beautiful project and leave everything else to me.
00:57:43James, we're one. There's nothing that we can't handle together.
00:57:56Hi, Jimmy.
00:58:01Victoria.
00:58:02What an unexpected surprise. I don't recall any business meeting with you today.
00:58:12I'm just visiting an old friend.
00:58:15I've moved on with my life. I have Mia, and she means everything to me.
00:58:21Oh, please, James. You wouldn't let a college flinch cloud your judgement after all these years. Right?
00:58:31Spare me the details. You betrayed me with my own roommate.
00:58:36What did you expect me to do, James?
00:58:39You were leaving college, and I wouldn't survive alone with a blood-sucking family.
00:58:45I need someone to back me up. I was a child.
00:58:50I don't care about your reasons anymore, Victoria. I got over you a long time ago.
00:58:59So cut wherever you're playing here.
00:59:03Come back here, dummy.
00:59:06I don't ever want to meet you again outside of our normal business arrangements.
00:59:11James, I never said I wanted to be your wife. I just wanted to be in your life.
00:59:28And...
00:59:31You are a condom with us to check the new site for our project.
00:59:36It's required by our partnership contracts.
00:59:39Yeah, I've got a business trip coming up.
00:59:50It's a sudden opportunity, and I need to leave for a few days.
00:59:55Oh, really? That's unexpected. When do you leave?
01:00:00Tomorrow morning. I know, it's short notice, but I'll be back before you know it.
01:00:07All right, James. Just be safe and don't overwork yourself.
01:00:14I will. I'll miss you so much.
01:00:16James.
01:00:17You've had quite a bit.
01:00:18Is everything all right?
01:00:19No.
01:00:20No.
01:00:21No.
01:00:22No.
01:00:23No.
01:00:24No.
01:00:25No.
01:00:26No.
01:00:27No.
01:00:28No.
01:00:29No.
01:00:30No.
01:00:31No.
01:00:32No.
01:00:33No.
01:00:34No.
01:00:35No.
01:00:36No.
01:00:37No.
01:00:38No.
01:00:39No.
01:00:40No.
01:00:41No.
01:01:03Everything's fine, do you see?
01:01:06Believe me.
01:01:18You've had enough tonight, James.
01:01:21Let me make sure you're comfortable.
01:01:26Doria, what are you doing?
01:01:30Don't you worry. We'll have a little chat.
01:01:35You're safe with me.
01:01:38What do you want?
01:01:42You, James. I want you.
01:01:46I want all of you.
01:01:49Your body, your love, and even your soul.
01:01:54Stop it. I'm... I'm married.
01:02:03I don't mind.
01:02:06Or maybe this makes you want even more.
01:02:09No.
01:02:13You enjoy it, don't you?
01:02:16I know exactly how to please you.
01:02:20You... I can do it to her.
01:02:24Oh, come on, darling.
01:02:26Darling.
01:02:28We all know about your little contract.
01:02:32Besides...
01:02:34You should never find out.
01:02:39Enough of this is what we're talking about, James.
01:02:42What the hell happened?
01:03:04I can't believe I let it get this far.
01:03:06Don, baby. What's wrong?
01:03:12Victoria, this is a mistake.
01:03:16Did you set me up?
01:03:18Where are you laying next to me?
01:03:20Oh, you were just so energetic.
01:03:25Stop the games. I'm serious.
01:03:28I don't love you and don't want to have anything to do.
01:03:30Hmm.
01:03:36Well, well.
01:03:38Let's say...
01:03:40We have a stunning night.
01:03:43And...
01:03:45I saved some pictures for memories.
01:03:51Delete those pictures right now!
01:03:56Why don't you come here and make me?
01:04:00You're playing with fire.
01:04:03I won't be blackmailed or manipulated.
01:04:05Delete them.
01:04:06Now!
01:04:13Which is no fun, James.
01:04:21I want you to step away from my life.
01:04:24This can't happen again.
01:04:27We'll see about that.
01:04:30what?
01:04:31What?
01:04:35Oh, Jamie Jamie.
01:04:37You can never run away from me.
01:04:38Oh my God, James, you're home!
01:04:43And you see too, babe.
01:04:45It's good to be home.
01:04:47Tell me everything about your life.
01:04:49I would love you.
01:04:51I would love you, girl.
01:04:53James, you're home!
01:04:55I miss you too, babe.
01:04:57It's good to be home.
01:04:59Tell me everything about your trip.
01:05:01It was a normal business trip.
01:05:03Nothing special.
01:05:05Let's not talk about it.
01:05:07I just want to enjoy the moment with you.
01:05:09Okay.
01:05:11Sure.
01:05:13I'm just so glad you're home.
01:05:23Tell me the truth, James.
01:05:31Is she important to you?
01:05:45She's my ex from college.
01:05:47And also my current business partner.
01:05:53And what about this?
01:05:55Is this part of your business?
01:06:07We...
01:06:09We had a businessman.
01:06:11She set me up.
01:06:13I made a mistake.
01:06:15But it's not how it looks like.
01:06:17I love you.
01:06:19And I don't want her to ruin us.
01:06:21Tell me the truth, James.
01:06:27What happened that night?
01:06:33Yeah.
01:06:35I tried to stop her.
01:06:37I was...
01:06:39too drunk and also confused.
01:06:43I don't know if I can trust you anymore, James.
01:06:49You put our relationship on edge.
01:06:53I'm so sorry.
01:06:55I'll...
01:06:57I'll do everything it takes to make this right.
01:07:01Please, don't give up on us.
01:07:03I need some space.
01:07:05Please, just...
01:07:07Leave me alone.
01:07:09I need some space.
01:07:11Please, just...
01:07:13Leave me alone.
01:07:15I am...
01:07:16I need some space creation to lock us with a con.
01:07:17I need some space.
01:07:18I need some space.
01:07:19I need some space.
01:07:20So, if you want to go...
01:07:21okay...
01:07:22I'm not gonna go alone.

01:07:58collecting information and attempting to get her this is insane how did he head so close to us
01:08:07he used virus illnesses and keep a low profile which made it challenging to track him but we've
01:08:16identified his patterns and his current location either device involving the authorities and getting
01:08:24a restraining order against him thank you Samantha I appreciate your dedication you and Mia deserve peace James
01:08:32I will continue to monitor the situation but please take legal action to protect yourself
01:08:39I'll take care of her and it's time for me to take control
01:08:44it's time to tell the truth Richard don't you think who sent you after us someone like you would
01:09:10never think of such a deliberate plan if you don't tell the truth I will call the cops on you fine fine
01:09:19fine it was Victoria Victoria how did she convince you to do this she she told me about your contract
01:09:32marriage she told me you don't even care about Mia she promised to help me get Mia back after she
01:09:41gets you back you were manipulated Richard you're such a clown James I've been seeing you
01:10:01I thought someone never really see me again huh Miss Morgan Victoria I want answers why did you hire Richard to stalk us
01:10:18Richard never heard any Richard in my life I know it was you he told me everything
01:10:29Richard never heard anything okay okay it was me but I did it for us for us I don't know there isn't us
01:10:45Richard never heard anything I can do it for you but I'll tell you how many times I can do it for us
01:11:06here's the plan
01:11:09we need to keep up Mia without any one tracing back to us
01:11:15We are professionals. We know how to cover our tracks.
01:11:21Good. And remember, I want her unharmed.
01:11:29This is just to make James realized he belongs to me.
01:11:37We understand. You get what you want.
01:11:45What?
01:12:03Hello?
01:12:08Who's there?
01:12:16My, my, Mia.
01:12:19What a tangled web we weave.
01:12:26It's me, Victoria.
01:12:30What do you want?
01:12:32I warned you to walk away, but you just wouldn't listen.
01:12:38So I decided to teach you a little lesson.
01:12:42See?
01:12:44You cried.
01:12:46You would never be good enough for James.
01:12:50He'll never get away with this.
01:12:53James wants nothing to do with you.
01:12:57We'll see about that.
01:13:00You can't control other people's feelings.
01:13:04You're such a bunny.
01:13:09Baby, Jamie wanted to have a bet.
01:13:12Why else he would choose you over me?
01:13:14What we have is real.
01:13:17And you need to face the truth.
01:13:22Listen to me carefully, Bunny.
01:13:24If you truly care for James, you'll stay away from me.
01:13:27It's not a negotiation. It's a demand.
01:13:31James and I are married.
01:13:34And there's nothing you can do about it.
01:13:37Don't be too confident.
01:13:42Just yet.
01:13:51Mia!
01:13:52Hi, Jimmy.
01:13:53What's the hurry?
01:13:58You came as soon as you got the message, huh?
01:14:01I only send you the message to see how much you will sacrifice for Mia.
01:14:06Mia!
01:14:08Let her go.
01:14:10You want me? I'm here.
01:14:14You've got one minute, James.
01:14:16Your precious contract wife
01:14:19or the woman who's left you all alone.
01:14:21Victoria.
01:14:23Why are you doing this?
01:14:25You're risking your own life.
01:14:27You just never believed that I truly loved you, right?
01:14:29I won't even have a life after tonight.
01:14:31But before anything happens, I'll get what I want.
01:14:34Please.
01:14:35Put the gun down.
01:14:36You don't want to end up like this.
01:14:37Mia is the only one I love.
01:14:38Your own life.
01:14:39You just never believed that I truly loved you, right?
01:14:40I won't even have a life after tonight.
01:14:42It's not true.
01:14:44You don't want to end up like this.
01:14:46I won't.
01:14:47You just never believed that I truly loved you, right?
01:14:49Please. Put the gun down. You don't want to end up like this. Mia is the only one I love.
01:15:04Hey, it's over now. You're safe. I was so scared, James. I thought I'd never see you again.
01:15:31I know. I was scared, too. But here we are. And I'll always protect you. You ruined the world to me.
01:15:44I love you, James. I love you, too.
01:15:51Why? Why did you betray me?
01:15:56No. I never wanted to hurt you. I was over and lost control. I didn't know how to handle it, so I decided not to tell you. I'm so sorry.
01:16:12You should have trusted me, James. I'm the kind of woman you can fight with.
01:16:23Yeah? Mia?
01:16:26Are you okay? You scared the hell out of me.
01:16:37It's okay. I feel better now. I'm sorry to have scared you. I guess tonight's events took a lot out of me.
01:16:50I'm so sorry for everything that has happened. I love you.
01:17:03I'm so sorry for everything that has happened. I love you.
01:17:14And I guess carrying a baby also takes away from my strength.
01:17:20What? What did you just say?
01:17:27Well, I've been having some fainting incidents recently, so I went to the hospital by myself, and it looks like in eight months you're going to become a dad.
01:17:46What? You're pregnant? Oh my God! I can't believe. I had no idea. You should have told me earlier. I can't believe we're becoming parents. This is the most exciting moment in my life.
01:18:09Why? I knew you would be happy. James, with the baby coming, and the incidents behind us, I think it's time we come clean to our parents. They deserve to know the truth. And we have to tell them they have a grandchild on the way.
01:18:32You're right, Mia. It's time to be honest with me.
01:18:43I'm so happy.
01:18:45You know, Mia, I was thinking, I want a girl. She'll have your eyes and my smile.
01:18:51Oh, really? I'm imagining a boy with your intelligence and my sense of beauty. But as long as the little one is healthy, I'm satisfied.
01:19:06I've never been more excited about the future.
01:19:09Me too, James. This journey, our journey, it's been a surprise in every sense of the word.
01:19:18Surprise can be a good thing, right? And maybe, just maybe, we'll have the best of both worlds.
01:19:24Breakfast in bed for my beautiful princess.
01:19:35Oh, my God. Are you trying to spoil me?
01:19:40Maybe I am. You deserve it.
01:19:43This looks amazing. I love the nuggets.
01:19:47I believe in us, James. We've gone through a lot of challenges that come out even stronger.
01:20:00Tonight is the last step for us to become a real couple.
01:20:07I'm lucky to have you here by my side, Mia.
01:20:11It doesn't matter how angry they get upon hearing the news.
01:20:17We'll face it together.
01:20:24Mom, we need to tell you something about our marriage.
01:20:34Our marriage started with a lie to your own.
01:20:38And...
01:20:41It was a business arrangement.
01:20:43But...
01:20:45Over time...
01:20:47We fell in love with each other.
01:20:50We want to make it real.
01:20:54And we'd like to have your blessing.
01:20:57For real this time.
01:20:59Well...
01:21:01Your marriage, contract or not, was...
01:21:06Has looked pretty real to me, from the very beginning.
01:21:09And I'm glad you guys are brave enough to admit the mistakes.
01:21:16And go on with your real happy marriage life.
01:21:22Thank you for understanding, Mom.
01:21:25Mom.
01:21:29I'll always be there for her.
01:21:31And we have a new member come into the family soon.
01:21:34Family soon.
01:21:35Heh.
01:21:38We'll be back and forth.
01:21:41We'll be back and forth.
01:21:42We'll be back and forth.
01:21:44The family soon.
01:21:46We'll be back and forth.
