00:00:00Father? What's the meaning of this? How could you do this to me?
00:00:05Well, good morning, Emmeline. I see you're in a great mood again.
00:00:08After everything I've done for you, the family, the company, this is how you reward me?
00:00:13Calm down and let me know what you're saying.
00:00:15Oh, so you're going to deny it?
00:00:17Denying what? I still have no idea what you're talking about.
00:00:19The rumors going around the company that you're stepping down in three months
00:00:22and you've already named Jonas your successor.
00:00:24So that's what this drama is about?
00:00:26Yes.
00:00:27Yeah, it's true.
00:00:28That's ridiculous. Jonas can't take care of himself, let alone the whole company.
00:00:32I mean, all he does is spend his money on partying and women,
00:00:35and I'm the one who actually does the work.
00:00:37Yes, and that's why you're the chief operating officer.
00:00:39Look, I need you with your skill set in that role so that you can support your brother
00:00:44so that he too can succeed.
00:00:46Well, what if I make you an author, one you can't refuse?
00:00:51I'm listening.
00:00:53Have a seat.
00:00:54Father, I am certain this is an offer you're going to appreciate.
00:00:56An offer I'm going to appreciate?
00:00:57You're getting married.
00:00:58Great, because we both know you're not getting any younger.
00:00:59What?
00:01:00No.
00:01:01I'm talking about a business proposal, not a marriage.
00:01:02Oh.
00:01:03Okay, well what's your business proposal?
00:01:04Okay.
00:01:05So, what if I could secure a partnership with the Anderson Corporation?
00:01:07The Anderson Corporation?
00:01:08I've been trying to land that account for ten years.
00:01:09It's impossible.
00:01:10It can't be done.
00:01:11I have my ways, Father.
00:01:12I just need you to trust me.
00:01:13Okay.
00:01:14If it was anybody else, I would say no.
00:01:15But you're my daughter and I trust you.
00:01:17But, what if it was a business proposal?
00:01:18I'm not a marriage.
00:01:19Okay, well what's your business proposal?
00:01:20Okay.
00:01:21So, what if I could secure a partnership with the Anderson Corporation?
00:01:23The Anderson Corporation?
00:01:24I've been trying to land that account for ten years.
00:01:27It's impossible.
00:01:28It can't be done.
00:01:29I have my ways, Father.
00:01:32I just need you to trust me.
00:01:33Hmm.
00:01:34If it was anybody else, I would say no.
00:01:37No.
00:01:38But you're my daughter and I trust you.
00:01:42But, just to let you know, I am going to be publicly announcing my retirement in three months.
00:01:49So you have three months to change my mind.
00:01:52Um, thank you, but I was hoping just to have a little more time-
00:01:56Three months and not a day more.
00:01:58There's no work.
00:02:04Ugh, fucking hell.
00:02:06I just don't get it.
00:02:07I have sent out a million proposals at this point, and I still have no response.
00:02:13Ugh.
00:02:19Mail for Ms. Evelyn Kestrel?
00:02:20Yes.
00:02:28Yes, who is it?
00:02:31Yes, Cynthia, what do you want?
00:02:33Um, I've got mail from the Anderson Corporation.
00:02:36I think they finally responded.
00:02:38What'd they say?
00:02:39Oh, I don't know, it's sealed then.
00:02:41Don't you stand there, read it to me.
00:02:50Oh my god, this is for Mr. X himself.
00:02:53He's asking me to come meet him at his private residence to discuss the terms of the contract.
00:02:58Oh my god, it's great news.
00:03:00I'll cancel the rest of your appointments for the afternoon.
00:03:03No, no, I don't think that'll be necessary.
00:03:06Why not?
00:03:07I'm not going.
00:03:14What do you mean you're not going?
00:03:16This is the big break you've been waiting for.
00:03:18I know, I know, but...
00:03:21Doesn't something about this seem off to you?
00:03:24Off? What do you mean off?
00:03:27We've sent out a million proposals, and now suddenly we get a response from Mr. X himself?
00:03:32I guess so, Ms. Castro, but what do you have to lose?
00:03:36Honestly, you've been waiting for this.
00:03:39Might as well.
00:03:51Hey, you! Gardner!
00:04:00I'm here to meet Mr. X. Am I in the right place?
00:04:06Do I know you from somewhere?
00:04:08Yes, I imagine you do.
00:04:10I'm...
00:04:11Unimportant.
00:04:12I'm here to meet Mr. X.
00:04:14Is this the place?
00:04:17He's waiting for you.
00:04:18Just do that door and down the hall.
00:04:46I don't know what kind of a sick game you're playing, but you should go back outside and keep raking up leaves.
00:05:02I don't think your boss would be too happy with you wearing his clothes and sitting on his expensive couch.
00:05:07You still don't remember me, do you?
00:05:13Remember you?
00:05:23No way! You're Jeff?
00:05:25In the flesh.
00:05:28You look like you've seen a ghost.
00:05:30You haven't answered my question.
00:05:32What's going on here?
00:05:34Well, you arranged a meeting with Mr. X, so here we are.
00:05:38I imagine this is all a little much for you to take in.
00:05:43This... doesn't make any sense.
00:05:47I just saw you outside pruning plants and now you're giving me a glass of whiskey?
00:05:53Is this a prank? Are there cameras?
00:05:57Cameras?
00:05:58I don't much care for intrusive technology.
00:06:01And I don't think it's a crime for a man to tend his own garden.
00:06:04I get a lot of satisfaction from doing it myself.
00:06:07It's therapeutic.
00:06:09So, what you're trying to tell me is...
00:06:11I'm Mr. X.
00:06:13I'm the one you came here to see.
00:06:15Now, shall we dispense with the charades and get down to business, or would you care to be hysterical for a few more minutes?
00:06:22Bullshit.
00:06:23You're lying.
00:06:24Are you just admit it and stop playing games?
00:06:26You don't have to believe me.
00:06:28I'm not trying to convince you.
00:06:29The door's still open.
00:06:30You're welcome to leave.
00:06:38I've gotta say...
00:06:40This looks really good.
00:06:42One of the best proposals I've read in a while, in fact.
00:06:44I guess all the media I say about you is true.
00:06:48But the figures we're looking at here run to the billions of dollars.
00:06:51Are you sure you can manage such resources?
00:06:54But I have a detailed project plan, and I...
00:06:58I've looked at your plan.
00:07:01And I've had my team go through it as well.
00:07:03The simple truth is, your company does not have the resources to manage such a large project.
00:07:09On paper, at least.
00:07:10Your father has consecutively been turned down over 30 times in the past 10 years for this reason alone.
00:07:15What makes you think we'd accept your company's offer this time, if you've been rejected so many times before?
00:07:19You've had all that information, and you've still invited me here.
00:07:24So that begs the question, what am I really doing here?
00:07:29Oh, Emma.
00:07:31You're always as intelligent as you are beautiful.
00:07:34Patronize me.
00:07:35All right.
00:07:36I won't waste your time.
00:07:38I brought you here to make you an offer.
00:07:40One that could help you secure what you came for.
00:07:48I mean the contract.
00:07:50Did you come for something else?
00:07:52No.
00:07:53I just want to make sure we're on the same page.
00:07:56So what's the offer?
00:07:59Take it.
00:08:01Open.
00:08:02What is this supposed to be?
00:08:07You're a smart woman.
00:08:09I'm sure you can read what's on the paper.
00:08:11This is a marriage contract.
00:08:14Between you and me.
00:08:16Contractual terms of the marriage outlined in detail.
00:08:20Contract set to expire in three months.
00:08:22What makes you think I would ever, in a million years, accept something as bizarre as this?
00:08:27You think I would willingly sell myself into servitude just for a contract?
00:08:32Let's not play games, Emma.
00:08:35I feel they're a waste of time and I don't have much of it to spare.
00:08:38I'm guessing the same is true for you.
00:08:40I know the reason you're here.
00:08:43Or dare I say, the motive behind your actions.
00:08:46What motive could that possibly be?
00:08:48Oh, I don't know.
00:08:50The fact that your father is publicly resigning from his position as CEO in three months?
00:08:53Or that he's naming someone who is not you as his successor.
00:08:58So, you thought that securing a massive contract like the Anderson Corporation could change his mind.
00:09:06And finally give you the recognition you feel you deserve.
00:09:10Let me know if I missed something.
00:09:11How could you possibly know all this, down to such detail?
00:09:17In this line of business, information is key.
00:09:22And I always have my way of getting the information I want.
00:09:27But, so you've been spying on me.
00:09:29I should get a restraining order against you.
00:09:31I wouldn't call it spying when your family's business is always on the news.
00:09:35It's just simple deduction, putting two and two together.
00:09:37And how exactly do you plan to get a restraining order against a man who doesn't exist?
00:09:44Who are you talking about?
00:09:46I know you. You're sitting right in front of me.
00:09:49What do you really know about me?
00:09:52Besides the fact that my name might be Jeff?
00:09:54Might be.
00:09:56The world knows me as Mr. X.
00:09:58You have a name and a face, but little else.
00:10:01I drove here, remember? I know where you live.
00:10:02I have a dozen homes across the state, none of which are in my name.
00:10:08But I think we're getting a little off topic here.
00:10:12You have a contract in front of you that can make all of your dreams come true.
00:10:16The question is, do you have the balls to take it?
00:10:21Of course, you could walk away, turn it down, and none of this will have happened.
00:10:27But remember, this is a one-time offer.
00:10:32So, decide.
00:10:36Can I at least take some time to go through it carefully and then make a decision?
00:10:44Smart woman.
00:10:46I'll give you three days to decide.
00:10:49After which, the contract will be withdrawn.
00:10:52And nobody is to know about our little arrangement.
00:10:55Is that clear?
00:10:57Yes.
00:11:03Goddammit.
00:11:05This asshole must have to be out of his goddamn mind.
00:11:07He wants to turn me into a slave, and for what?
00:11:10Are you hiding something from your baby sister?
00:11:12Hiding.
00:11:14I don't need to hide anything from you.
00:11:16You're always too intoxicated to see clearly anyway.
00:11:19Oh, Emma.
00:11:21You never miss an opportunity to have a go at me, do you?
00:11:23It's bad enough I always have pops on my back.
00:11:25On your back?
00:11:27You're clearly his favorite.
00:11:28I mean, he gives you everything on a gold platter, and you just take it for granted.
00:11:32You think you have everything figured out, don't you?
00:11:35When in truth, you're just a scared little girl, running around, seeking validation from her daddy.
00:11:39What are you doing here, Jonas? I know you didn't just come to say hi. I have a lot to get done today.
00:11:46What? I can't just come check up on my little sister?
00:11:49You haven't even offered me a seat yet. Now that's not very nice.
00:11:52Sorry. I just have a lot going on. Have a seat.
00:12:04This is a nice office you have here.
00:12:06But, uh, remind me to give you a raise when I finally take over.
00:12:10Now, can you please tell me why you're here?
00:12:13Get down to business, you mean?
00:12:15Well, I'd like you to tell father that you're no longer interested in the position of CEO,
00:12:20and that you would gladly let me take the lead as your big brother.
00:12:30And why the hell would I want to do that?
00:12:32Maybe because I asked nicely?
00:12:35With a cute little smile on my face?
00:12:37I could do a sad face if you like.
00:12:39This is ridiculous.
00:12:41I don't have time for this. I have work to do.
00:12:43I don't have time for your games.
00:12:44Or maybe you don't have a shot at winning.
00:12:47And you might get yourself hurt.
00:12:49Is that a threat, big brother?
00:12:51A threat?
00:12:53I'm just trying to look out for you, kiddo.
00:12:55Politics can be a dirty game.
00:12:57Well, thank you so much for your concern, Jonas.
00:13:00You might really appreciate it.
00:13:01But I've made up my mind.
00:13:03I'm not chickening out.
00:13:06You've always had a hard time listening to simple instructions, haven't you?
00:13:10You see, here's what bothers me.
00:13:14Why do you even want it, anyway?
00:13:16I mean, you barely have enough time for yourself, let alone running the day-to-day operations of a huge company like this.
00:13:22And even if I'm CEO, you'll still have plenty of money to fund your extravagant lifestyle.
00:13:27So why do you want it?
00:13:31You know what?
00:13:33You're right.
00:13:34I don't have time to manage any of this.
00:13:36Which is why I want to make you second in command.
00:13:39You'll get to manage all the day-to-day operations and make the big decisions.
00:13:42You'll basically be the one in charge and I'll just be the pretty face of the company.
00:13:47How does that sound?
00:13:49You're out of your mind, Jonas.
00:13:52So, let me get this straight.
00:13:54You want me to do all the work around here and you just get to take the credit?
00:13:59Would that be too much to ask of my little sister?
00:14:01I don't know what delusional world you're living in, but you need to wake up.
00:14:06Because that's never going to happen, Jonas.
00:14:08Let me ask you this.
00:14:11How do you envision this will end?
00:14:13Do you think I'd stand idly by while you take my fucking birthright?
00:14:16Well, when last I checked, we both had the same last name.
00:14:20I don't remember when that right was conferred to you.
00:14:23You think father will entertain this sick fantasy of yours?
00:14:26Just like when you were a kid, so he wants to just see you get tired out before he comes to console you.
00:14:31I'm just trying to save you from all that stress.
00:14:34Again, thank you for your concern, brother. It's deeply appreciated.
00:14:39But I'll have to pass on your offer.
00:14:42Fine.
00:14:44If you won't hear the voice of reason, so be in.
00:14:47But don't come cry to me when things get ugly.
00:14:50Dare I ask, is that a threat I detect, brother?
00:14:53It's not a very nice way to talk to your little sister, is it?
00:14:56You know, you're lucky I...
00:14:58Emma, you asked me to remind you of, um...
00:15:01I'm sorry, I didn't realize you and Cynthia, my brother here was just leaving.
00:15:07This is an older little sister. I'll be back.
00:15:21You had something for me?
00:15:23Oh, yeah, your, um, three o'clock appointment.
00:15:25You told me to remind you when our client is here.
00:15:28I tried to bust you up at the unit downstairs.
00:15:31Sorry, Cynthia. I was just a bit distracted.
00:15:34Um, can we reschedule that meeting for later in the week?
00:15:37I'm just not in the right frame of mind right now.
00:15:40I'm sorry to hear that. Is it anything to do with, you know, who?
00:15:43My brother's just being his usual self.
00:15:46He's usually pretty hard to understand.
00:15:48I guess you can't choose your family, can you?
00:15:50Tell me about it. I also have an insufferable brother
00:15:52who doesn't look as good in those chains.
00:15:56Uh, what was that?
00:15:58Oh, um, nothing.
00:15:59Um, could I get you a coffee or a cold drink?
00:16:03Oh, you're sweet.
00:16:04Uh, but no, it's alright, Cynthia.
00:16:05I think I just need to be alone with my thighs.
00:16:10Oh, yes, alright.
00:16:11Um, well, I will take care of the meeting
00:16:13and I'll get out of here if you need anything to let me know.
00:16:25Father!
00:16:26We need to talk.
00:16:28Clearly you've forgotten your manners and how to knock on a door.
00:16:31Forgive me, Father. I just felt the matter was too urgent.
00:16:35Standing around knocking on doors felt like a waste of time.
00:16:38Right, but what is the matter and why do you smell like a sewerette?
00:16:41I've just been working hard all day, Father.
00:16:46Working hard inside a bar?
00:16:47Look, I don't have time for this. What do you want?
00:16:50It's funny how nobody around here ever seems to have time when I'm around.
00:16:54It's like I'm some disease that you all want to keep at arm's length.
00:16:58Jonas, you're a grown man. Stop carrying on like a child.
00:17:02And tell me what it is that you want.
00:17:05I'd like to know why do you insist on giving Emma the false hope
00:17:08that she could actually take my birthright.
00:17:12Seems pretty cruel, even by your standards.
00:17:15I'll have you know she has every opportunity to succeed in running this company.
00:17:19If she lands the deal, I will honor my promise and hand over the reins.
00:17:22No. You can't do that. You can't do that!
00:17:30Oh, can't I? Just watch me.
00:17:37You can't do this! It's not fair! You can't do this!
00:17:40Wait. You're just trying to teach me a lesson, aren't you?
00:17:47To show me the error of my ways.
00:17:51Well, lesson learned. You didn't have to go this far.
00:17:56Jonas, come and sit down and we'll talk about this man-to-man.
00:18:00We'll talk about this man-to-man.
00:18:09Castro Enterprises is a family business that is being passed down from generation to generation.
00:18:15It was my grandfather's and he passed it down to my father.
00:18:18My father then passed it down to me.
00:18:20But I had to earn it. He didn't just give it over.
00:18:23I had to work my butt off to prove myself to him and earn his respect.
00:18:26Just like your sister has done every single day.
00:18:29But what are you doing?
00:18:31All you are doing is spending our fortune every nickel, penny and dime.
00:18:35I mean, that was a $500,000 bill just on champagne alone.
00:18:38What are you spending that kind of money on booze for?
00:18:41Are you opening a winery?
00:18:45Jonas, I need you...
00:18:47I need you to start earning my respect and my trust, not squandering our fortune.
00:18:53Father, are you okay?
00:18:54I'm fine. Worry more about your own reputation rather than my health.
00:19:00You know what, Father?
00:19:02You're right.
00:19:04I'll do just that.
00:19:06Thank you for setting me on the right path.
00:19:09As always, I won't disappoint you.
00:19:13I promise.
00:19:24Who is it?
00:19:25Ms. Castor, I have your coffee with two sugars.
00:19:28You're the best. And I told you, you don't need to be so formal with me.
00:19:32Oh, yes. Sorry. I keep forgetting.
00:19:35Bring me that coffee.
00:19:37No worries, Emma.
00:19:38Oh, I forgot to ask you. How did things go with Mr. X? He's obviously not a serial killer.
00:19:45No, he was something worse. He's a psychopath.
00:19:48Oh, I'm sorry to hear that. So does that mean you're not going to go ahead with the project?
00:19:52Sorry, one second.
00:19:54Who could this be?
00:19:55Mr. X sends a message. Time's up.
00:20:04Who was it? Is everything okay?
00:20:06Speak of the devil.
00:20:08Oh.
00:20:09How do you ever expect me to sign this? Do you really think I'm that desperate?
00:20:28I have to be very careful.
00:20:32Even one excess drop could kill her.
00:20:39There. Dumb.
00:20:43And what were you saying, my dear?
00:20:45First of all, I am not your dear.
00:20:47And second of all, do you really expect me to sign this? It's like selling myself into slavery!
00:20:54Are you listening to me? Is this a joke to you?
00:20:57I can hear you.
00:20:59And yelling is not going to help me hear you any better.
00:21:02Yes, that contract in front of you is the equivalent of selling yourself into slavery.
00:21:06Because I will only for the duration.
00:21:09But, you're under no obligation to sign it.
00:21:13You could walk out of here right now and nobody would stop you.
00:21:16So, the fact of the matter remains.
00:21:20You have a decision to make.
00:21:21Clock's ticket.
00:21:23Fine. I'll do it.
00:21:25Fantastic. I knew you had it in you.
00:21:28But, can I just make one request?
00:21:31A request?
00:21:33I don't know if I'll like this. But go on.
00:21:35Well, the contract stipulates that I have to publicly agree to be marrying a common gardener, not Mr. X.
00:21:41Yes, I remember putting that in. What about it?
00:21:42Well, just if you could give me some time to convince him. He's stubborn, but I think I can bring him around eventually.
00:21:47This could be problematic. But I'll grant it. You have 14 days to convince your father. But no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
00:22:08This could be problematic. But I'll grant it. You have 14 days to convince your father. But no other requests will be granted.
00:22:22Now, shall we proceed?
00:22:24What do you get out of this anyway? Is it some kind of payback or revenge or just a sick thrill?
00:22:42I guess you'll never know. Maybe one day I'll tell you.
00:22:54It's done. Are you happy now?
00:23:11Happy? This is a mutually beneficial arrangement. So don't act like you just did me a favor.
00:23:18Here, let me give you a hand with that.
00:23:20I can do it myself. Thank you.
00:23:24Are you just about done?
00:23:31There.
00:23:33I need to change my clothes. Can you at least turn around and close your eyes or something?
00:23:38I could. But I think we need to start getting comfortable with each other sooner rather than later.
00:23:43We're a happily married couple now, remember?
00:23:45It says so right on the certificate. But I guess...
00:23:50We don't have to get comfortable right now.
00:23:53I promise... I won't stare.
00:24:00Is this the part where you've forced me to sleep with you to consummate our fake marriage?
00:24:04I did not force you to do anything.
00:24:06But if I wish for you to fulfill your marital obligations, I would expect you to do so with a smile on your face.
00:24:17Do we have an understanding?
00:24:18Some day we are going to be together.
00:24:28If you don't have an appointment, please sit down and I'll be with you shortly.
00:24:42I don't think I need an appointment. I pretty much own the company.
00:24:47I am so sorry, Mr. Castro. I didn't see you walk in.
00:24:52It's okay, sweetheart. Have you seen my sister around? I've been trying to get a hold of her.
00:24:56Um, no, but I can write down something for you and I can get it to her.
00:25:03No, it's fine. I prefer to have my meetings face to face, if you know what I mean.
00:25:08Just let me know when she comes by, okay?
00:25:11Yes, of course.
00:25:12You're Emma's personal assistant, right?
00:25:19So, you know a lot about the things that go on around here, right?
00:25:23I mean, I do her schedules, I write her meetings, I get her coffee, I write her proposals while I draft them, and then I also...
00:25:33I run around all day making sure...
00:25:36I am so sorry, Mr. Castro. I kind of start blabbing and then I can't stop and then it just...
00:25:41It's okay, sweetheart. You know, I do have a thing for intelligent women.
00:25:48Why don't I take you on a date?
00:25:51I'll take that as a yes. I'll call you.
00:25:55And remember, my sister can't know about this.
00:26:11Emma, where have you been? I haven't seen you in two days, are you okay?
00:26:18You look terrible, Pelopence.
00:26:20Yeah, sorry, I just had a lot going on, that's all.
00:26:23Yeah, yeah, of course. Do you care to tell me?
00:26:26Right, close the door.
00:26:27Right, close the door.
00:26:28Yeah, of course.
00:26:36Alright, what I'm about to say, it has to stay between you and me, okay? It needs to be confidential.
00:26:42Yes, yes, of course, you can trust me.
00:26:44I know. Sometimes I feel like you're the only one I can trust.
00:26:46So, the last two days I was away, I got married and kind of signed my life away.
00:26:53Oh my god. I have so many questions.
00:26:58I bet. Let's hear them.
00:27:00Well, who did you get married to? Where did you get married? How?
00:27:05All I can say is, I've married a gardener, and I even have a marriage contract to prove it.
00:27:14I'm supposed to make an announcement in two weeks' time, but no one can know until I've had a chance to speak with my father first.
00:27:20Yes, of course. Do you think he's going to approve? I don't think he is.
00:27:25Tell me about it.
00:27:27So, what else happened when I was away?
00:27:30Not much. Really, just your brother came in?
00:27:33Jonas was here.
00:27:35Yeah. He's always up to something.
00:27:38Did he say something to you?
00:27:40No, he didn't say anything to me.
00:27:44Well, out with it already. Did he do or say something while I was away?
00:27:49No, no. He pretty much just told me to let you know that he dropped by. That was it.
00:27:56Are you okay?
00:27:58Yeah, yeah, I'm fine. Um, did you want me to call him for you?
00:28:02I can let him know and maybe leave a note and he could-
00:28:05No, it's fine. I'm seeing him tonight for a family dinner, so whatever he has to say to me, he can say it then.
00:28:12Okay.
00:28:13Okay.
00:28:14You look as ravishing as ever, little sister.
00:28:16I don't know what to do.
00:28:17You look as ravishing as ever, little sister.
00:28:18you look as ravishing as ever little sister did you do something with your hair no it's the same
00:28:47as when you saw it last time but you look a little less drunk than usual that's an improvement

00:34:14so why have you chosen not to
00:34:16because i'm not that kind of person

00:34:42i thought i was just doing this for revenge
00:34:48god you're so annoying why can't anything with you just be simple and straightforward
00:34:53you might want to save that loud voice of yours

00:35:43i haven't given you any reason to distrust me why would i start now
00:35:48god i've never been so confused in my life
00:35:52okay fine look i tried talking to my father about the idea of me marrying a gardener and
00:36:02he just laughed like it was a joke i can't even imagine what his reaction would be if it came out
00:36:06in the news he probably disowned me hmm well i can't do anything about your father but i can give
00:36:16you another two weeks to try to convince him but the contract won't change thank you but why would

00:37:58Uh, yeah. Here.
00:38:07You okay? What's wrong?
00:38:09Um, yeah, I'm fine. It's just...
00:38:13You're gonna help Emma, right?
00:38:15Yeah, of course.
00:38:17You know how my sister is. Strong-headed, just like my father.
00:38:20She never would have agreed to faster up front.
00:38:27You know, there's a lot of space in the back.
00:38:33Here? In public?
00:38:36My sister will never know.
00:38:38Yes, yes, Mr. Rodrigo. Everything's in place to finalize the procurement.
00:38:50Thank you so much for your continual support. I...
00:38:54I am... I'm gonna have to call you back.
00:38:57Breaking news. Top executive married the garden label.
00:39:00The business world is stunned by the rumors that the Chief Operating Officer of Castro Enterprises,
00:39:06one of the largest pharmaceutical conglomerates, is tying the knot with an ordinary working-class man.
00:39:12Ms. Castro, I have your points.
00:39:14This did come shortly after it was announced that she was on the verge of sealing the company's largest contract in her company's history.
00:39:21Many questioned her judgment and the impact this union would have on her family name.
00:39:26And in other news...
00:39:28I trusted you. This is how you repay me?
00:39:31It wasn't me. I swear, you gotta believe me.
00:39:34Don't lie to me. You're the only one I told. How did the media get wind of it?
00:39:37Emma, I would never betray you. You gotta believe me.
00:39:41Well, if you didn't leak the information, then who did?
00:39:43I... I don't know. I wish I knew.
00:39:46You bastard, how could you? How could you do this to me?
00:40:01Emma, you're home early? Is everything alright?
00:40:04No, everything is not alright. How could you do this to me after you gave me your word? You betrayed me.
00:40:10I'm sure I have no idea what you're talking about. But I'll be with you in just a sec. I'll have to finish up here.
00:40:19No one cares about your stupid plans, Jeff. Just tell me why you did it. Tell me!
00:40:25You should not have done that. You really should not have done that.
00:40:33Oh, what are you gonna do? Leave more stuff to the press? I say you already have a pretty good head start on that.
00:40:40What are you talking about? None of this makes sense. I'll leak what to the press?
00:40:44Oh, you don't know. Let me refresh your memory.
00:40:50This is unexpected. But I assure you, I had nothing to do with this.
00:40:54You fucking liar! It has your fingerprints all over it.
00:40:57What would I have to gain from betraying your trust?
00:41:00What would you have to gain? I don't know, Jeff. I don't know why you do anything you do.
00:41:05But you have completely ruined my life.
00:41:07Emma, I...
00:41:08Hello? Father? I...
00:41:09Hello? Father? Hello? Hello? Hello? Hello? Hello? Hello? What am I gonna do? What the fuck am I gonna do? This is a complete disaster!
00:41:11Fuck!
00:41:12Fuck!
00:41:13How about you just calm down? Take a few deep breaths.
00:41:14What am I gonna do? What the fuck am I gonna do? This is a complete disaster! Fuck!
00:41:15How about you just calm down? Take a few deep breaths. It might not be as bad as you're making it out to be.
00:41:16It might not... It might not be as bad as you're making it out to be.
00:41:17Might not... It might not be as bad? Are you fucking kidding me? What am I gonna say?
00:41:19What am I gonna do? What the fuck am I gonna do? This is a complete disaster! Fuck!
00:41:24How about you just calm down? Take a few deep breaths. It might not be as bad as you're making it out to be.
00:41:29Might not... Might not be as bad? Are you fucking kidding me? What am I gonna say to my father? Fuck!
00:41:34Yeah, this looks grim. But I had nothing to do with this. How about instead of throwing accusations around, I just call the station and ask them who gave them the information.
00:41:44Even if you could do that, they would never tell you.
00:41:47What the fuck am I gonna do? What the fuck am I gonna do? This is a complete disaster! Fuck!
00:41:51How about you just calm down? Take a few deep breaths. It might not be as bad as you're making it out to be.
00:41:54Might not... Might not be as bad? Are you fucking kidding me? What am I gonna say to my father? Fuck!
00:41:59Yeah, this looks grim. But I had nothing to do with this. How about instead of throwing accusations around, I just call the station and ask them who gave them the information.
00:42:03They would never tell you.
00:42:05Give me a sec.
00:42:06Who the hell are you texting?
00:42:08My accountants. So they can buy the new station and give me the information.
00:42:12You're bluffing. And even if you couldn't do that, that would take forever to arrange.
00:42:17You'd be surprised how quickly you can get things done when you're Mr. X.
00:42:21This is a waste of my time. I just have to face my father and talk to him once and for all. Thanks for meeting.
00:42:28Done.
00:42:29Jonas Castro.
00:42:34Really likes your brother, isn't it?
00:42:42Well, if it isn't the latest bride-to-be, I gotta be honest, I didn't see it coming. But the media seems to love it.
00:42:49You snake. How did you know?
00:42:51To be fair, I was surprised as well. I thought you would have had better taste. But I guess you gotta lower your standards when you've been single for so long.
00:43:00Well, thanks for your concern about my love life. Why don't you mind your own business and butt out?
00:43:05Well, little sister, it became my business when you decided to embarrass the family name and drag us all through the mind.
00:43:11That's rich. Coming from the guy whose depraved lifestyle gets him in the media every weekend.
00:43:17What can I say? I'm the life of the party.
00:43:20You seem confident, like you think you have me beat. But I'm the one who's about to close the biggest deal in the company's history.
00:43:27You know our father better than anyone. He would never condone any of this. Plus, you're not the only one that can cut big deals for the company.
00:43:35Oh, you think you can cut a deal? We don't even know you're living around the office.
00:43:39You'll soon find out I'm a man with many talents. Why don't you go see father? He's been waiting for you.
00:43:49Good luck. You'll need it.
00:43:56Father?
00:43:58Tell me it isn't true. Tell me this is just another media stunt designed to ruin this family's reputation.
00:44:03Father, I'm sorry. What the media is saying is true. I never meant for you to find out like this.
00:44:08Em, of all the men in the world, you choose a mere commoner, a gardener? Have you no self-respect? Have you no respect for this family?
00:44:16I know it doesn't make sense, but please, I need you to trust me.
00:44:19Trust you? You're actively bringing shame to this family and you expect me to trust you?
00:44:24Father, please.
00:44:26Who is this man? What is he doing to manipulate you like this? Are you being blackmailed? Are you pregnant?
00:44:31Once I seal the deal with the Anderson Corporation, I promise you it'll all make sense.
00:44:37I'm afraid that will no longer be necessary.
00:44:39What? What do you mean?
00:44:41While you were busy gardening, your brother came to me with a proposal that I could not refuse.
00:44:47A proposal?
00:44:49Open it.
00:44:50Open it.
00:44:51Open it.
00:44:55This is my client!
00:45:00Not anymore.
00:45:01But, Father, that's not fair. This is my client.
00:45:14Not anymore. It doesn't matter how Jonas got the account, it is his now.
00:45:18Emmeline, you no longer need to worry about the Anton Corporation account.
00:45:21Oh, please. Don't stop me now when I'm so close to the end.
00:45:25My decision is made. Jonas will now be the successor of Castro Enterprises.
00:45:30Oh, Father, please, please, I'm begging you, don't do this to me, please.
00:45:34Alright. I will give you one more chance. On one condition.
00:45:39Of course, of course, anything.
00:45:41I want to meet this gardener as yours. I want to know who it is that has stolen my daughter's heart.
00:45:45You can't do this, Father. You simply just can't.
00:45:50She would disgrace the family name and you would condone it?
00:45:53Jonas, how dare you speak to me like that? Have you lost your mind?
00:45:56No, Father. I've lost my patience. I am your son. I am your heir. It is my birthright to be your successor.
00:46:06Jonas, how dare you speak to me like this? I will decide who will and who will not run this club.
00:46:12Father? Father, are you okay?
00:46:16Father, no! Father!
00:46:23Oh, Em. With that sad look off your face, it's going to take a lot more than this to bring me down.
00:46:28Father, that's not funny. You shouldn't be speaking. You should be resting.
00:46:32What, you're going to start treating me like a vegetable now? The doctor said all I need to do is take those tablets and I'll be as right as rain.
00:46:40Oh, darling. You're looking more and more like your mother. She would have been so proud of you and the woman you've become. Just as I am.
00:46:52Where's your brother?
00:46:53Right here, old man.
00:46:59Glad to see you're still kicking. For a moment there I thought I'd-
00:47:02Don't you fucking dare. You did this to him.
00:47:05So it's my fault he's lying in bed like this. I'm the one that put him in this state-
00:47:09Hey, please. Stop this bickering. I really can't cope with it anymore.
00:47:13Sorry, Father.
00:47:14Look, since I am temporarily unable to fulfill my role as the head of Castro Enterprises, I will need to appoint a temporary CEO.
00:47:28And Jonas, despite everything you have done, you have proven yourself a worthy candidate, so I will appoint you as CEO temporarily.
00:47:36What? No!
00:47:39Um, this is not a permanent position. I will not make my final decision until I've met your man and seen the contract.
00:48:06Jonas, what are you doing here?
00:48:16Hello, Father. Are you feeling well rested? Do you feel any better?
00:48:22No, not really. About the same.
00:48:26But, uh, why the sudden interest in my well-being? That's a little out of character for you.
00:48:32That's hurtful, Father. Your health is of top priority to me.
00:48:37I noticed your pills were running low, so I decided to refill them for you.
00:48:42Would you like to have a look?
00:48:44No, just, just give them to me, please.
00:48:56Well, I should be getting out of your hair. Get well soon, Pops.
00:49:02Hey! Watch where you're going!
00:49:15I'm sorry, sister. I didn't see you there. I must have been absent-minded.
00:49:19You're being too nice. What are you up to?
00:49:22What do you mean, what am I up to? I just apologized for almost pushing you over.
00:49:26What are you doing in Father's room?
00:49:29Now I can't check up on my own father? What do you people take me for around here?
00:49:32Jonas, what are you doing here and why are you in my seat?
00:49:50Ooh, didn't you hear? I'm in charge now, so technically this is my seat.
00:49:57Do you actually need something or did you just come here to gloat?
00:50:01Emma, Emma. You always like to get straight down to business, don't you?
00:50:04Well, let's get to it. You are obligated to report all findings and dealings to the company head.
00:50:11Yet, after looking through all of your files, I can't seem to find anything on the Anderson Corporation.
00:50:18Why is that?
00:50:19Why do you want the details of the deal? So you can steal my client again like you did last time?
00:50:26Come on, Emma. Don't be petty. I finalized a contract that was sitting on your desk for weeks.
00:50:32It's all in the company's best interest.
00:50:34Company's best interest or your best interest, Jonas?
00:50:38Well, I am currently the Chief Executive Officer, so my interest is the company's best interest.
00:50:44Of course, you never did tell me how you got the details of the contract in the first place.
00:50:51I never pegged you as someone who was scurrying around like a rat.
00:50:55I don't scurry it. I have people for that. It's the mark of a true leader.
00:51:00You know, you could really learn a thing or two from me, Emma.
00:51:03I knew it. I knew you had someone on the inside.
00:51:06Wait. That means that someone's...
00:51:10That fucking bitch!
00:51:12Emma, good... It's Miss Castro to you. Going somewhere?
00:51:28Um, yes. I have something to tell you that...
00:51:31Meaning to tell me what?
00:51:32Exactly. That you're a liar? A backstabber? That you've been conniving with my brother behind my back?
00:51:37What exactly were you meaning to tell me?
00:51:39Emma, I know it looks bad, but I never lied about any...
00:51:43Don't lie to me. Have some dignity. I trusted you and you betrayed me.
00:51:50I hardly think this is appropriate workplace behavior, little sister.
00:51:54I could have you sanctioned for assaulting my personal assistant.
00:51:58Your personal assistant. So that's work this is. You sold me out.
00:52:02Cynthia darling, wait for me in my office. I'll be with you shortly.
00:52:07Emma, it wasn't meant to be like this.
00:52:12I'm sorry.
00:52:13I'm sorry.
00:52:23As CEO, I'm responsible for the well-being of all my employees. I'm sure you understand.
00:52:29Interim, CEO. Let's see how long you can hold on to that position once father recovers, sweet brother.
00:52:34Oh, Emma. I plan to hold on to this position for a very, very long time.
00:52:44Hey, um, I really wanted to apologize for the way I treated you and that I doubted you.
00:53:02And I shouldn't have broken your plan. That was a stupid thing to do.
00:53:05I never thought I'd see the day that Emily and Castro would apologize.
00:53:11Well, don't get used to it. It's not going to happen again.
00:53:16Actually, scratch that. I think, I think it will happen more often.
00:53:23I, I know I haven't been the best fake wife to you, but you've been good to me.
00:53:30And you've been kind and patient and you didn't try and force yourself on me when you could have.
00:53:35Emma, you don't have to.
00:53:36No, please. Just let me finish, okay?
00:53:39This is really hard for me to say.
00:53:41But I also want to apologize for how I've treated you in the past.
00:53:45I've been self-centered and egocentric and I'm sorry.
00:53:50It's okay, Emma. And just so you know, this isn't about revenge.
00:53:56What is it about? I mean, what do you stand to gain from this contract?
00:54:00I can't tell you. Not yet.
00:54:02Not yet.
00:54:03I figured.
00:54:05Well, can you at least show me what you're painting? I knew you were an artist.
00:54:10Hmm. There's a lot you don't know about me.
00:54:13I bet.
00:54:15So, can I see it?
00:54:17Want to come see?
00:54:18It's beautiful. But why would you paint a picture of me?
00:54:37I don't recall it being a crime to paint a picture of a beautiful and fascinating woman.
00:54:42Well, maybe I can see it when it's finished.
00:54:48Maybe.
00:54:50We'll see.
00:54:54Emma.
00:54:55I know you just, you didn't come all this way to apologize.
00:55:01Then I know that look on your face.
00:55:05What's going on?
00:55:07So now you can read my emotions and know when something's wrong?
00:55:11Well, I think I've always been able to do that with you.
00:55:13You pat your lips every time you're worried.
00:55:18I also know that your father's fallen ill.
00:55:22That your brother's taking control of the company.
00:55:25How do you know that? That hasn't even gone public yet.
00:55:28I have my ways.
00:55:30And I always keep a close eye on my assets.
00:55:33The question is, what are you going to do?
00:55:35At this stage, I don't know.
00:55:40My father said the only way he'd even entertain the idea of me getting married to a gardener is
00:55:46if he met the man first.
00:55:48But I know the contract I signed says that I can't do that, so I guess you could say I'm out of options.
00:55:53That is a precarious situation. And it would void the contract.
00:56:07But I'll do it.
00:56:10What? What did you just say?
00:56:13I said I'll do it. I'll go with you to see your father.
00:56:17But why would you do that? That doesn't make any sense.
00:56:19All I can say is that in this respect, our goals are aligned.
00:56:24Goals aligned? What goals are you talking about, Jeff? What goals?
00:56:30Don't worry about that now. Everything will make sense soon.
00:56:40We can go right now if you'd like. I'll grab my coat.
00:56:49Cynthia, darling. Why the long face? We should be celebrating my victory, not sulking.
00:56:55She never helped you.
00:56:57Your sister hates me because she thinks I betrayed her. And rightfully so.
00:57:01I didn't realize you were going to use that information against her, and if I did, I wouldn't have helped you.
00:57:05All you care about is yourself.
00:57:08I think you've been well compensated for your efforts.
00:57:11A salary bump, a triple promotion. I'd expect you to be more grateful.
00:57:15I'm sorry. I'm grateful. But what's going to happen when your dad wakes up? Hmm? Is it going to be the same?
00:57:22Who says my father's going to recover?
00:57:32What do you mean by that?
00:57:34Everyone keeps going on and on about how my father's going to recover and all the things that will happen.
00:57:38But my father has a very serious illness and he might not recover and that's just a fact.
00:57:45How could you say that about your own father?
00:57:47I don't think I've said anything out of place. My father is very sick and he might be in bed for a very long time.
00:57:54And I'm sure that would definitely suit your agenda, wouldn't it?
00:57:57Are you accusing me of something?
00:57:59No, Jonah. I'm not accusing you of anything. I just think I chose the wrong side.
00:58:03And what side is that?
00:58:04Look, you're not the man that I thought you were. I heard stories, but I didn't think they were true, but clearly they are.
00:58:15And what stories are those? Tell me the tales of Jonas Castro.
00:58:20Jonas Castro? Well, Jonas Castro loves himself. He's an alcoholic. He's a womanizer. He's just pure evil. That's who Jonas Castro is.
00:58:31Look, I can't do this. I'm leaving.
00:58:37Where the fuck do you think you're going?
00:58:42Seems you've forgotten your place. Maybe it's the time I reminded you.
00:58:47Please. Let go. Jonas.
00:58:48You really think you can say whatever the fuck you want and get away with it?
00:58:57Look, I think you're drunk and I think you just need to get off me, please.
00:59:03Let me remind you, you were just a pawn in all of this. Before I came into your life you were nothing.
00:59:07Please. Please, I'm sorry. Just, oh, forget about it and we can go.
00:59:12No, no. I think I need to teach you a lesson.
00:59:16I won't ever forget this.
00:59:17You seem pretty confident. I guess you've done a lot of stuff like this before.
00:59:27Not really. Any advice on approaching your father?
00:59:31Well, he already doesn't like you. So I guess just be yourself.
00:59:36Let's get this over with him.
00:59:38Father, I'm here. You're not alone. I'm with my fiancé.
00:59:47It's you.
00:59:50Wait, you two know each other?
00:59:54Your father and I have met. It was a long time ago. I'm surprised he remembers.
00:59:59I never forget a face. Especially one as unique as yours.
01:00:03Wait, hang on. This doesn't make any sense. Someone needs to give me some answers.
01:00:09This man came to me a few years ago asking for a private meeting to discuss a very important proposal.
01:00:33You're the man I spoke with on the phone?
01:00:52Yes, sir.
01:00:54It's not every day I have a meeting with a total stranger, but you said you had an interesting business proposal. So, what is it?
01:01:00Of course, sir. I understand perfectly. But I said I had an interesting proposal for you. It may not be exactly considered a business proposal.
01:01:10Young man, I don't have time for your silly little word games, so you have five minutes to tell me what the proposal is, or I will have you thrown out.
01:01:18Right down to business.
01:01:20Young man, I would like to ask for your daughter Emma's hand in marriage.
01:01:25I'm sorry. I think my hearing must be playing tricks upon me. Could you repeat that for me, please?
01:01:38I said I would like your daughter's hand in marriage.
01:01:43Hmm. So it seems like my hearing is fine.
01:01:46No, sir. I believe your hearing is still top-notch.
01:01:49So, what makes you think I would go for such a ludicrous idea?
01:01:52Well, I didn't think you'd have a problem with it, since I am the heir to my family's billion-dollar fortune.
01:01:58Is that supposed to impress me? Anyone can claim to be anything these days.
01:02:01That's my family's name, our net worth. We operate several business enterprises, as well as doing philanthropic work.
01:02:14So?
01:02:16A union between your daughter and I would strengthen both our families, galvanizing our position in high society making us a formidable force.
01:02:23I didn't think you'd have a problem with it.
01:02:25Well, I see you've done your research. But even if I were to give this union my blessing, I could never convince my Emmeline to marry someone that she didn't choose herself.
01:02:36Well, I believe that's where I come in.
01:02:38How so?
01:02:45So, how exactly do you plan on wooing my daughter?
01:02:49Well, in all honesty, sir, it's not a very good plan, but it's one that sets my heart at ease.
01:02:55Well, what exactly are you talking about?
01:02:58I've not had much luck with women in this regard. They always seem to be after me for access to my money.
01:03:04I'm so sick of it. So I intend to disguise myself as a nobody.
01:03:10Are you suggesting that my daughter is after you for your money, like some pathetic little gold digger?
01:03:16No, no, sir. I just want Emma to get to know me for me, that's all.
01:03:20This is a ridiculous plan. It'll never work.
01:03:23I know. But I'm still willing to try. And if it goes south, no harm done.
01:03:29So what exactly do you want from me?
01:03:31Well, I was hoping you could put in a good word for me. But Emma can't know that you know who I am.
01:03:36Maybe you could say that I'm the son of an old friend.
01:03:39This is a ridiculous plan. I think you just need to leave.
01:03:40It's no secret that you yearn for your daughter to get married to someone worthy from high society.
01:03:48Please just consider the plan.
01:03:50How dare you presume to know me and what it is that I want. Get out!
01:03:54Thank you for your time. If you reconsider, please give me a call.
01:04:07How arrogant. Reminds me of my younger self.
01:04:11Wait, so hang on. What you're trying to tell me is...
01:04:22I've never been poor a day in my life. I just wanted you to see the real me.
01:04:27That's what I was trying to tell you that day in the restaurant. But you wouldn't hear me out.
01:04:30So you just created a fake marriage? A contract marriage? And why not move on to someone else?
01:04:38Contract marriage?
01:04:40But what if I hadn't signed it? What was going to be your next scheme?
01:04:43I told you. You're the only person that I ever wanted to see me for who I was.
01:04:49And it wasn't a sham contract. I would have kept my end of the bargain at the end of the three months.
01:04:54What if I hadn't signed it? What would your next scheme mean?
01:05:00There was no next scheme because I knew you would sign it.
01:05:04How did you know that?
01:05:06Because I know you.
01:05:08Emma, you're willing to do whatever it takes to get what you want. Just like I am.
01:05:14You seem to know a lot about me.
01:05:17I really don't know what's going on here.
01:05:19But Em, if you're willing to accept his marriage proposal, you can have the company.
01:05:28No, Father. There's no marriage proposal.
01:05:32There's a web of lies and deceit in this sick man's games.
01:05:37There is now.
01:05:39Emma, you're the only one I've ever wanted.
01:05:43The only one I love.
01:05:44I'm sorry I had to pretend to be someone I wasn't.
01:05:50But, if you're willing to make an honest man out of me, I promise, no more games or half-truths.
01:05:58Emma, will you marry me?
01:06:00Will you marry me?
01:06:08Will you marry me?
01:06:11Jeff, you're a very curious woman being.
01:06:16But you have been very kind and caring to me over the last few months.
01:06:20And even though I've been a total bitch, I hate to admit it, but I have grown fond of you.
01:06:27So is that a yes?
01:06:29Well, we've already been married for two months. Might as well give it a real shot.
01:06:35Yes!
01:06:41Oh.
01:06:43Oh, looks like I missed the family reunion.
01:06:46Guess my invitation got lost in the mail.
01:06:48No, Jonas. You're just in the nick of time. Your sister is getting married.
01:06:52Oh, that's wonderful news.
01:06:55I'm not finished. It is also my final decision that she takes over as CEO of Castro Enterprises and that you step down effective immediately.
01:07:04Like hell I will. I'm your son!
01:07:07No son of mine would swap out my medication for a placebo so that I would die faster.
01:07:13Yeah, I knew about that. I might be sick, but I am not senile.
01:07:17See, no. I didn't want it to come with this.
01:07:20But it looks like I have no other choice.
01:07:23Please!
01:07:24What the hell are you doing? That's how bother. What are you doing?
01:07:27I'm doing what I should have done a long time ago, little sister.
01:07:31Please, that's how bother. Just think about what you're doing. Put it down.
01:07:34Step out of the way, Emma. I'm not going to tell you again.
01:07:46No, please. Think about what you're doing. This is our father. Put it down.
01:07:50What the fuck do you think you're doing, Emma? Get out of the way.
01:07:53No. It's okay, Emma. I'll handle this.
01:07:56No, please let me talk to him.
01:07:57Talk to who? This piece of shit? This disgraceful excuse for a man that I'm ashamed to call my son?
01:08:04Your mother was right about you.
01:08:06If you refuse to get out of the way, Emma, then you can go to the grave with him.
01:08:11No, no, no!
01:08:14Father! Father, no!
01:08:18No, Father!
01:08:21Father, please, no!
01:08:23Please, call an ambulance! No, call an ambulance!
01:08:29It's too late, Em. It's too late.
01:08:31Father, please.
01:08:33Em, don't worry. It's fine.
01:08:36Know that I'm so proud of you.
01:08:40And your mother would have been so proud of you, too.
01:08:44I'll send her your love.
01:08:47Father, no! No, no!
01:08:53No, no!
01:08:54No, no!
01:08:55No, no!
01:08:56No, no!
01:08:57No, no!
01:08:58No, no!
01:08:59No, no!
