00:01Was a lie.
00:03Desmond.
00:05I just need to sign these reports.
00:07This is it.
00:09My ticket to freedom.
00:10I'm not getting a divorce.
00:13Who is that?
00:15So she used to date Desmond Belmont?
00:18Oh my god, that's Damien Crowley.
00:20Mortal enemies with Desmond.
00:23Beatrice, why are you keeping secrets from me?
00:26Desmond, we're already divorced.
00:28We're not done.
00:30Who the hell is my wife?
00:31She's not your wife anymore.
00:33We're done, Desmond.
00:36You betrayed our marriage.
00:38There's no going back.
00:39It's time to move on.
00:43Beatrice, please.
00:45I love you.
00:58Look, where are you, Desmond?
01:00I've been waiting for 15 minutes already.
01:04I mean, you probably can't be too far.
01:08You've reached Desmond Belmont.
01:10Leave a message.
01:11Desmond, hey.
01:12Uh, I got the pizza.
01:14It's boring now.
01:16Where are you?
01:17Okay, never mind.
01:18I'll call you back.
01:19I see you.
01:20Okay, never mind.
01:21I'll call you back.
01:22I see you.
01:23I see you.
01:45Desmond?
01:46I suspected he was having an affair.
01:51The last minute business trips.
01:54The late nights.
01:55The smell of a stranger's perfume clinging to his shirt when he thought I wouldn't notice.
02:01His mom warned me he would cheat and never stay faithful, she said.
02:07But I didn't want to believe her.
02:12It was on a rainy night, just like this one, when Desmond promised me forever.
02:17Desmond?
02:18Hey, hey, where are you?
02:19Um, there's this creep following me.
02:21I'm really scared.
02:26Come on, baby.
02:27Don't run from me.
02:29I'll show you a good time.
02:30Don't touch me!
02:33No!
02:34Get your hands off my girl!
02:56Fucking psycho!
03:00Are you okay?
03:01Are you okay?
03:02Are you okay?
03:03In your hand, you're bleeding.
03:04You're bleeding.
03:05I'm fine.
03:06It's just a scratch.
03:07I'm sorry.
03:09I should have come sooner.
03:10But from now on, I promise, I will always show up.
03:13I will protect you.
03:14Forever.
03:15But forever.
03:16Forever.
03:17Was a lie.
03:18How did we let this happen, Desmond?
03:19Once upon a time, you'd risk your life for me.
03:21Now you won't even pick up my call.
03:22Funny how love dies, quietly, on a night just like this.
03:24His mom is right.
03:25We are never meant to lie.
03:26We are never meant to lie.
03:27We are never meant to lie.
03:28Beatrice, I'm surprised.
03:29How did we let this happen, Desmond?
03:30How did we let this happen, Desmond?
03:31Once upon a time, you'd risk your life for me.
03:34Now you won't even pick up my call.
03:36Funny how love dies, quietly, on a night just like this.
03:42His mom is right.
03:46We are never meant to lie.
03:57Beatrice, I'm surprised you're calling.
03:59I'm ready to talk.
04:01Madam, Miss Lawson has arrived.
04:07Send her in.
04:14Beatrice, you look like a wet dog.
04:16Though that's not surprising, given your background.
04:19Which of these do you think would be nice for Miss Fairfax?
04:22She's marrying Desmond, after all.
04:25Why in the world he chose to marry someone like you is beyond me.
04:30She's much more a lady of class.
04:33Sleeping with a married man, very classy.
04:35Don't you get sarcastic with me, Beatrice.
04:38I encouraged him to stay silent about the marriage.
04:41The Fairfax family would be ashamed if they knew he was married to someone with your lowly background.
04:47So, you will get a divorce from Desmond.
04:52You will stay quiet about the marriage.
04:54And then I don't want to see you around Desmond anymore.
04:58Understood?
04:59Yes.
05:00But I want 50 million dollars.
05:10Excuse me?
05:11Are you trying to rob me?
05:13Please, 50 million is nothing once Desmond marries the Fairfax heiress.
05:17But that will only happen if I divorce him and stay silent.
05:22That's what you want.
05:24Right?
05:25Fine.
05:26You get the divorce agreement.
05:28And I'll get you your money.
05:3050 million, exactly.
05:32And the deal's off.
05:34We've been married for 10 years.
05:41But no one knows.
05:43I'm gonna go talk to Mr. Bermott.
05:45Yeah.
05:46Okay.
05:47I'm your wife, but you hide me like I'm just some dirty secret lover.
05:53But once we're divorced, you won't have to be embarrassed by me anymore.
06:04How was your trip?
06:09Fine.
06:21I just need you to sign these reports.
06:24They're due tomorrow.
06:34Are you gonna be home for dinner?
06:40No.
06:41I'll probably be late, so just eat without me.
06:49You know, sometimes I don't even think you're trying to hide your mistress.
06:53The way you so openly let her leave her things around.
06:56I'm your wife, yet I'm the one you chose to keep secret.
07:04Goodbye, Desmond.
07:05Mm-hmm.
07:06Yeah.
07:13But now, you won't have to keep me a secret anymore.
07:22Do you have news for me?
07:27He signed.
07:29Really?
07:30Just like that?
07:31I guess he doesn't love you anymore.
07:38This is it.
07:39My ticket to freedom.
07:41I'm finally moving on.
07:50I brought you a gift.
07:53It's one of a kind.
07:54I even handpicked the diamonds myself.
07:58I don't need any more expensive jewelry.
08:00Maybe you should give that to Madeline Fairfax.
08:02She'd enjoy it.
08:03Why would I give the gift to her?
08:05I just think the Fairfax family would like an expensive gift like that one.
08:09What's this all about?
08:11I don't owe the Fairfax family any gifts.
08:13Yes, Madeline and I are working on the Zinstar project together.
08:16That's it.
08:18There's nothing going on between the two of us.
08:20Desmond, if you love someone else, you can go be with her.
08:25We can get a divorce.
08:30We are not getting divorced.
08:35We are never getting divorced.
08:38Do you understand?
08:39It's a little too late for that, Desmond.
08:42You already signed the divorce papers.
08:44Hello?
08:50Hold on.
08:51What's wrong?
08:53Alright, yeah.
08:54Just stay put.
08:55I'm coming.
09:00I'm sorry.
09:02But don't ever mention divorce again.
09:05Get some sleep.
09:07Desmond, we're already divorced.
09:10You just don't know it yet.
09:11Okay.
09:18You sure you want me to sell all of these?
09:20Yeah, I don't want them anymore.
09:22Then you can just donate the money to charity or something.
09:27Sell this one too, please.
09:30This has to be worth at least a million.
09:33Is Desmond really okay with the divorce?
09:36He doesn't know about it.
09:37I tricked him into signing the divorce papers.
09:41You what?
09:42Aren't you afraid of what Desmond will do when he finds out he already signed?
09:45No, no.
09:46With the money I'm getting from his mom, I can disappear to anywhere in the world.
09:50I could hire added security protection if I really wanted to.
09:54I'll be fine and I'm not staying in this marriage any longer.
09:56Doesn't matter what he thinks.
09:58Um, I'm gonna go ahead and I'm gonna take this to my new apartment.
10:01Let me know you sell the jewelry.
10:02I will.
10:03Go ahead and sell this one too.
10:09I have no use for it anymore.
10:11What is she doing?
10:18She just got in her car with a box of clothes.
10:22Follow her.
10:23Don't let her out of your sight.

18:43i know all about girls like you

19:07think of it as a parting gift

19:25there are plenty of other jobs out there
19:26trust me
19:27oh
19:28did you find one yet?

19:30damien crowley is looking for a new assistant if you're interested
19:34he just flew in from europe so he's been over there for 10 years
19:37neil she's a project director she can't just drop down to be someone's secretary
19:42and not to mention damien crowley is like mortal enemies with desmond
19:46why do you think our boss has been so stressed lately?
19:48it's because damien crowley is in town
19:51yeah being a secretary would be a major demotion
19:54but damien is desmond's biggest competitor
19:57it'd be good to make my own business connections instead of only dealing with desmond's
20:01you know what?
20:02it's actually a great idea
20:05i'll think about it
20:09uh, mr belmont's in a meeting

27:25thank you mr crowley for your time
27:29wait i
27:31wow you are such a prick
27:35beatrice is one of the most competent people i know and she'd be taking a major demotion to be your secretary
27:42don't write her off just because she wore workout clothes to a golf meeting
27:47you know she was in a soup when we got here and i told her to change because this was supposed to be a fun outing and you ruined it
27:54i'll see you at home but i'm starting to think who you're hanging out with is rubbing off on you
28:01great thanks a lot damien we're gonna hear about this all night violet begged me to join you so you can meet beatrice
28:08she just left the summit group yesterday
28:10why
28:11no clue
28:12she was the best project director they had
28:14close eight out of the twelve are the company's multi-million dollar deals
28:18well why doesn't she just continue working with them
28:21between us
28:22beatrice and the summit ceo used to date
28:25the word on the street is he's going to marry madeline fairfax now
28:29i don't think beatrice wants to work for a company that associates with him at all
28:33so she used to date desmond belmont
28:39interesting
28:40desmond
28:44i want you to explain exactly what happened with my sister at your company
28:47she got injured and you didn't do anything about it
28:50she's okay
28:51what exactly did you want me to do
28:53you need to make beatrice apologize to me
28:56desmond
28:58come on my nose it still hurts from yesterday
29:01and not only that but that bitch publicly humiliated my sister
29:05how do you expect her to run a team
29:06this looked bad on you too
29:08you swear that actually happened
29:11you didn't do anything to provoke her
29:15no no of course i didn't no
29:18she insulted me in front of everybody out of nowhere
29:21it was completely uncalled for
29:23you know how much i hate
29:25fires madeline
29:26why are you still on her side
29:28okay well fine if she doesn't want to return and formally apologize to me then you need to fire her team
29:32agreed
29:33we can't have madeline's employees think they could just walk all over her
29:36her team is going nowhere
29:39beatrice was one of our best project directors here and that team was a part of it
29:46if madeline can't handle the job then she can just quit
29:49and i'll hire someone that can
29:51okay i see what this is now
29:53listen if you haven't completely moved on from her
29:56i'm gonna have no choice but to cancel this partnership mr belmont

39:27yes
39:28and i gave her the cancellation contract
39:30and then she just disappeared
39:32you know desmond i don't think it's wise
39:35to cancel an agreement that's protecting your assets
39:39your opinion means nothing to me mother
39:42this is the belmont family name at stake
39:45of course my opinion matters
39:47desmond please
39:49please
39:50just
39:51think
39:52about marrying madeline fairfax
39:54i'm not marrying madeline
39:56she's
39:57she's just entertainment
39:59and her family still has some use to me
40:04what if beatrice finds out about your affair
40:07then i'll leave madeline
40:08i'm not gonna end my marriage
40:10with someone who just offers me simple pleasures
40:13stop trying to get beatrice to divorce me
40:16or else i'll tell everyone
40:19that beatrice is my wife
40:22that would ruin our relationship with the fairfax family
40:27fairfax family means no importance to me if it means losing beatrice
40:31there's so many other companies out there that i can partner with
40:34but there's only one beatrice
40:36do you understand
40:39this is the last time i'm telling you
40:42i will not stand for this
40:45beatrice is not a fit wife
40:47and you will not stay married to her
40:49if i don't stay married to that woman
40:56i will tell colin
40:57i will tell everyone on this staff
40:59that you no longer reside on the belmont estates
41:02i'll put you in a fucking retirement home

41:25but this is happening whether you like it or not

43:24i've already contacted hotel security to get the surveillance footage
43:27i'm not gonna let him get away

43:45yes but unfortunately the cameras on the floor she was taken to were turned off before the incident occurred
43:52we were unable to see anything
43:53the attackers are thorough
43:54how would you like us to proceed mr. Belmont?
43:55don't bother with anything

44:21thank you
44:22Madeline Fairfax tomorrow. This whole thing is becoming a hassle.
44:27Understood.
44:31Where's the rest of the footage?
44:33Those guys should have bruised her up pretty badly.
44:35They barely said anything.
44:37I wonder if they actually killed her.
44:39That would be the best case scenario.
44:41Then I wouldn't have to deal with her annoying antics anymore.
44:44Um, hello?
44:53I don't see any work being done.
44:56It's 12.30.
44:58It's lunch time.
45:00I don't care.
45:01Let's go, chop chop!
45:03You can't force us to work through lunch, that's illegal.
45:05Yes, I can.
45:07I'm the project manager now, so you have to do what I say.
45:10No, they don't.
45:12Madeline Fairfax, you are no longer employed by Summit Group.
45:16Please leave the office immediately.
45:17What are you talking about?
45:19Of course I am.
45:20I replaced Beatrice, so I'm in charge now.
45:24Desmond gave me the job himself.
45:26And now he's taking it away.
45:28You're no longer welcome on Summit Group property.
45:30Your privileges have been revoked.
45:35Excuse me?
45:36You can't do that!
45:38Yeah, I can.
45:39This gentleman will escort you out.
45:41Whatever.
45:42Now that Beatrice is gone, Madame Belmont can finally announce my engagement to Desmond.
45:47Her charity banquet will be the perfect occasion.
45:49I'll make sure Desmond attends as my date, so the whole community knows that I am the future Mrs. Belmont.
45:55I can't remember the last time he made me pancakes.
46:10Eat up.
46:11You need to regain your strength.
46:14How are you feeling?
46:16Do I need to call the doctor?
46:17We can get an at home visit going?
46:19No, I am perfectly fine.
46:22Okay.
46:24Just so you know, I did call off work this entire week.
46:28No way I can be here for you whenever you need me.
46:30What's the point of acting like you're in love with me now?
46:33It's too late, Desmond.
46:36That's okay.
46:37You don't have to do that.
46:39Like I said, I'm fine.
46:40I want to.
46:41I'm your husband.
46:43I care about you.
46:44I was thinking, maybe after you recover, you start trying for a baby.
46:58We're both home.
46:59I think it would be the perfect time.
47:01What do you think?
47:08Once upon a time, all I ever wanted was to have a baby with him.
47:12But now, it would be my worst nightmare.
47:15I'm not ready for a baby.
47:17I'm not.
47:18Violet and I were planning a trip to Paris.
47:20I want to travel.
47:21I want to be alone for a little while first.
47:27Okay.
47:29The process takes nine months.
47:32We could start now.
47:33And then you have all the time in the world to travel before the baby's born.
47:38It's important that the Belmont family has an heir.
47:41We could even get started right now.
48:02Where were we?
48:03Why didn't you answer her call?
48:07I already told you.
48:08I'm not going into work this week.
48:10Roland will handle any office concerns.
48:12You know?
48:13We're both home.
48:14Why don't we call the designer?
48:16Convert one of the bedrooms into a nursery.
48:18You know, I'm getting a headache.
48:23I should go away now.
48:25You should make sure your employees know when you're out of office.
48:37Roland already terminated your position.
48:39What do you want?
48:40Desmond.
48:41Hi.
48:42Madeline, I don't have time for this.
48:45If you have anything, just have Roland handle it.
48:48I'm busy.
48:49Wait!
48:50I left the company like you requested, but perhaps we could see each other one last time.
48:56To say goodbye.
48:57I think you owe me that, at least.
49:01Fine.
49:02When?
49:03This weekend.
49:04Your mother is hosting a charity banquet.
49:07We can go together.
49:09Alright.
49:11I'll be there.
49:12But Madeline, don't try anything funny.
49:16I have one line.
49:18Don't cross it.
49:22Now everyone will finally know we're getting engaged, Desmond.
49:29This is insane, Beatrice.
49:31Mm-hmm.
49:32I mean, I'm glad you're okay now, but who do you think was behind this?
49:37I have my suspicions.
49:39Okay, I can't prove it, but I think it was Madeline Fairfax.
49:46Madeline Fairfax.
49:48That reminds me.
49:49Desmond is supposed to be at Madame Belmont's charity gala this weekend.
49:53Yeah.
49:54I mean, this is mom's gala.
49:55I'm sure you'd be there.
49:56Yes.
49:57But, Madame Belmont is planning to announce Desmond's engagement to Madeline Fairfax.
50:03I actually think it makes a lot of sense if Madeline is the one behind your attack.
50:07She wants to get rid of you once and for all.
50:10Wait, how do you know all of that?
50:13She sent invitations out.
50:14Wow.
50:17They're going perfect.
50:21This is actually perfect.
50:29I think I'm going to pay my husband a visit to his engagement party.
50:35But I'm gonna need your help.
50:36Of course.
50:46Yes?
50:49You look nice.
50:53This is for my mother's charity banquet.
50:55Oh.
50:58I didn't realize she was hosting an event today.
51:03You gonna bring a date?
51:04No.
51:10I'd only want to attend the event with you.
51:13But I figured it'd be best if you stayed home to recover for a little bit while longer.
51:17More lies.
51:23Well.
51:25I appreciate your concern.
51:26You'll be okay tonight while I'm gone?
51:35Of course.
51:36Well get some sleep.
51:37Some actual rest.
51:38You need it.
51:39Don't wait up for me.
51:40One day you'll understand.
51:44One day you'll understand.
51:46I wasn't waiting.
51:47No, I was learning to live without you.
51:50And now?
51:52I don't need you.
51:53I never did.
51:54I did.
52:00Lovely to see you again.
52:02This is quite the turnout, madam.
52:04It really is.
52:05Oh.
52:15That's Mr. Belmont and Miss Fairfax.
52:18They make such a beautiful couple.
52:20I heard their engagement is being formally announced tonight.
52:24Madeline, always a pleasure to see you.
52:28Mwah.
52:30Mwah.
52:31You look stunning.
52:33Oh, thank you, madam Belmont.
52:35Anything for this fantastic gala you've arranged?
52:39Desmond, you look dashing.
52:42Madeline, could I have a quick word privately with you?
52:46I want to talk about some of the jewelry that's up for auction.
52:49Of course.
52:55Beatrice never returned with her finalized breakup agreement.
52:59Have you been in contact with her?
53:04Madame Belmont doesn't know about my stunt with those attackers.
53:07And then I almost had that bitch killed.
53:11Yes.
53:13She contacted me.
