00:00:00No surprises.
00:00:01Ho, ho, ho.
00:00:03I have a gift for you.
00:00:05Jessica, you have inherited this mansion,
00:00:08along with your father's business empire and assets worth over a billion dollars.
00:00:12I just need a signature from you.
00:00:14Oh, and $105 million in cash.
00:00:21You're rich!
00:00:23Let me hold on to you.
00:00:24I have to wear your baby.
00:00:25Yeah.
00:00:26You know, my whole life, I grew up in foster care,
00:00:31moving from place to place,
00:00:32and now I finally have a place that I can call home.
00:00:38It must feel great to win the jackpot.
00:00:39No, my only wish is to reunite with my mother.
00:00:43You bastard child.
00:00:45You will never reunite with your mother.
00:00:48We made sure that that whore is gone forever.
00:00:51My mother is gone because of you?
00:00:53Well, we had a little help from James Thornton,
00:00:56the most powerful man in the Thornton family.
00:01:00Time for you to go back to your poor little country, sis.
00:01:04Yes, my mother.
00:01:05U.S. C.I.S.
00:01:06Your visa expired years ago.
00:01:08You're being deported.
00:01:09What?
00:01:09No, there must be some mistake.
00:01:11Adrian, didn't you help me file my immigration paperwork?
00:01:15Whoops.
00:01:16Well, I guess I screwed up.
00:01:18What?
00:01:20Hey, baby.
00:01:21Hey.
00:01:21Adrian, are you cheating on me?
00:01:24With her?
00:01:25Choose the right side, babe.
00:01:27You'll never win against them.
00:01:28That's true.
00:01:30Um, according to the terms of the will,
00:01:32non-citizens are not eligible to inherit the estate.
00:01:36Everything will pass to your next of kin,
00:01:39Lisa and Kristen Miller.
00:01:41You thought you could get rich overnight?
00:01:44Keep dreaming.
00:01:46Seriously?
00:01:47Bon voyage, have, sis.
00:01:48Yes.
00:01:51The boss is urgent.
00:01:57They're about to deport a woman named Jessica Miller.
00:02:01Jessica Miller?
00:02:03It's her.
00:02:04Oh, thank God you're alive.
00:02:14She's so beautiful and kind.
00:02:16The girl I've always dreamed of.
00:02:18She saved my life once.
00:02:20I owe her.
00:02:25Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.
00:02:26Jessica?
00:02:28Do I know this?
00:02:29She doesn't remember me.
00:02:30I'm Daniel.
00:02:36You're a lawyer.
00:02:38Just pretend we know each other.
00:02:39I can get you out of here.
00:02:41We've spoken to the judge,
00:02:42and Miss Miller should be released immediately.
00:02:45Wait, you can't deport her.
00:02:47She is about to marry a U.S. citizen.
00:02:51Who's the lucky guy?
00:02:53I am.
00:02:54I'm marrying her.
00:03:00A fake marriage won't save her.
00:03:03Our marriage is real.
00:03:04Yeah, 100% real.
00:03:07Prove it then.
00:03:14That's it?
00:03:15You call that a kiss?
00:03:16Need more proof, officer?
00:03:30Look, this guy is a lawyer
00:03:32to some of the most important families in town.
00:03:35And if you don't let her go,
00:03:37then he'll make sure that the goosey damn job.
00:03:39Fine, you can have her.
00:03:41Thank you, officer.
00:03:42Thank you, officer.
00:03:46Guys, I think we're good.
00:03:49It's not over.
00:03:53We'll be checking your marital status
00:03:55and conducting interviews.
00:03:56And there are a few very specific requirements
00:03:58you should know.
00:04:00Make sure you two are staying in the same house
00:04:02and sleeping in the same bed.
00:04:04Or it's game over.
00:04:08Well,
00:04:09thank you
00:04:12for the rescue.
00:04:14Oh, it's
00:04:16no problem.
00:04:18But, um,
00:04:19Daniel,
00:04:21would you
00:04:22would you marry me?
00:04:25Oh, Jessica.
00:04:26I've waited for this moment
00:04:27for five years.
00:04:28I mean, it would only be
00:04:29a contract marriage.
00:04:32But once I get my green card,
00:04:34I'll inherit my father's
00:04:36business empire
00:04:37and
00:04:37I'll share half of it with you.
00:04:40Even your misunderstanding
00:04:41is so cute.
00:04:42I only want you, Jessica.
00:04:44But before I get my green card,
00:04:48you're going to have to help me deal
00:04:49with my stepsister
00:04:50and her mom.
00:04:52They're trying to get rid of me.
00:04:53And they've already stolen
00:04:55my fortune
00:04:55and they made my mother disappear.
00:05:01Deal.
00:05:02What?
00:05:04That's it?
00:05:05This lily stands for
00:05:08loyalties
00:05:09and new beginnings.
00:05:11Something that I want with you.
00:05:13Now, I know it's rushed.
00:05:16But I promise you
00:05:17I will buy you
00:05:19a proper ring soon.
00:05:20From now on,
00:05:30let's make every Christmas
00:05:31I'll ruin
00:05:32fill it
00:05:33with memories.
00:05:46You can't do this!
00:05:48Jess, it's okay.
00:05:49Just wait here.
00:05:50I'll handle it.
00:05:57What?
00:05:58Why are you helping that girl?
00:06:00Kristen Miller is our ally
00:06:02and she wants her the hell out of this picture.
00:06:05It's too late, Dad.
00:06:06We already got married.
00:06:07Are you insane?
00:06:09Did you forget you're supposed to marry Ashley?
00:06:11Daniel Thornton.
00:06:16My mother is gone because of you?
00:06:19Well, we had a little help
00:06:20from James Thornton,
00:06:22the most powerful man
00:06:24in the Thornton family.
00:06:26Why, I recognize that face
00:06:28from the newspaper.
00:06:30That was James Thornton
00:06:32from the Thornton family,
00:06:33the family responsible
00:06:34for my mother's disappearance.
00:06:36Stop telling me
00:06:41what I can and cannot do.
00:06:43She saved my life.
00:06:44I owe it to her.
00:06:45Roll the hell up, Daniel.
00:06:47You need to remember
00:06:47your position
00:06:48as the heir to our family.
00:06:50And you need to divorce that girl.
00:06:52Now.
00:06:53I'm doing this
00:06:54to clean your mess up.
00:06:56Just leave us alone.
00:06:57Sorry about that.
00:07:06Is your name
00:07:07Daniel Thornton?
00:07:11Yeah.
00:07:13The Thornton family
00:07:14are responsible
00:07:15for the disappearance
00:07:16of my mother.
00:07:17I have been searching for her
00:07:19my entire life.
00:07:22Jess.
00:07:23I can explain.
00:07:24I'm not marrying Thornton.
00:07:25Wait, wait, wait.
00:07:26Jess, Jess.
00:07:27I'm not who you think I am.
00:07:29I have nothing to do
00:07:30with that family.
00:07:30Oh, really?
00:07:31Because your name
00:07:31is right here
00:07:32on the marriage certificate.
00:07:35I share the last name
00:07:36as Thornton.
00:07:37I am not one of them.
00:07:39Thornton is a common name.
00:07:40Just an ordinary guy.
00:07:42Really?
00:07:42Well, I don't believe you.
00:07:43I saw you talking
00:07:44to James Thornton.
00:07:46Is he your father?
00:07:50Is he your father?
00:07:51No, he's not my father.
00:07:53He was threatening
00:07:53to drive you out of the country
00:07:54and I was not going
00:07:55to have anything to do with it.
00:07:56Jess, I'm on your side.
00:07:59You're not
00:08:00one of them.
00:08:01I'm...
00:08:02I'm sorry.
00:08:05It's okay.
00:08:07Don't worry about it.
00:08:08Well, you have a nice apartment.
00:08:14Welcome.
00:08:17Is that your Labrador?
00:08:19That looks exactly like mine.
00:08:20I got mine as a Christmas present
00:08:21when I was nine.
00:08:22No way.
00:08:24I got mine as a Christmas present
00:08:25when I was nine.
00:08:26It's crazy.
00:08:31Jess, we're going to have to sleep
00:08:32in the same room together
00:08:33just in case immigration
00:08:34and ambush us.
00:08:35Yeah, but...
00:08:36Are you sure you're okay
00:08:37sleeping on the carpet?
00:08:39I mean, you've...
00:08:39You've done so much
00:08:41for me already
00:08:41and I just...
00:08:42Jess, please.
00:08:43I insist.
00:08:44We made a deal, remember.
00:08:46I also want to thank you
00:08:47for giving me the chance
00:08:49to get rich.
00:08:52It's okay, Daniel.
00:08:53It's okay.
00:08:53It's okay.
00:09:03You're spying on it.
00:09:27No.
00:09:28No, no, no, no.
00:09:29I was...
00:09:30I was just passing by
00:09:32and just...
00:09:33Do you need anything?
00:09:35I was joking.
00:09:36Uh, yeah.
00:09:37Could you, uh...
00:09:38pass me the towel
00:09:40that's just hanging up
00:09:41next to the door?
00:09:42Uh, yeah.
00:09:43Sure, sure.
00:09:58Oh, my God.
00:09:59What?
00:09:59I just got fired.
00:10:00What?

00:10:09Yeah.
00:10:20Sam, please.
00:10:21Don't fire me.
00:10:22I'm sorry, Jess.
00:10:23Jess, but your immigration issue
00:10:26hurt us in a tough spot.
00:10:28I worked for this company
00:10:30for years.
00:10:31I'm sorry, Jess.
00:10:33There's nothing I can do.
00:10:36Sorry.
00:10:42Look who's here.
00:10:44Someone who just got fired.
00:10:47This suits you.
00:10:48It was you.
00:10:48It was you.
00:10:53I should have known
00:10:54you were behind this.
00:10:55I'm not gonna let you
00:10:56stay here
00:10:56and ruin things.
00:10:58I'm gonna take away
00:10:58everything you have,
00:11:00sister.
00:11:03I wouldn't...
00:11:04You just made
00:11:06a big mistake, sir.

00:11:08My name is Daniel Thornton,
00:11:10son of James Thornton,
00:11:12the chairman
00:11:13of Thornton Enterprise.

00:11:28a billion dollar deal.
00:11:31Take a look.
00:11:42Oh, my God.
00:11:44It's real.
00:11:50Absolutely.
00:11:51With her hard work
00:11:52and dedication,
00:11:53she's made this possible.
00:11:55It's a real shame

00:11:56such a valuable employee.
00:11:58Oh, uh, Mr. Thornton,

00:12:14Jessica!

00:12:20should have told me!
00:12:25What are you talking about, Sam?
00:12:27Jessica!
00:12:28You secured a huge deal
00:12:29for the company!
00:12:32Did you not just fire her?
00:12:34I changed my mind.
00:12:36Jessica's staying.
00:12:38Actually,
00:12:39she's being promoted
00:12:40to sales manager.
00:12:43Can't afford to lose
00:12:44someone as valuable
00:12:45as, like, her?
00:12:46Great.
00:12:48Thanks, Sam.
00:12:50This
00:12:50is not over.
00:12:52I can't believe it.
00:12:57Jessica kept her job
00:12:58and she gets promoted.
00:13:00Don't worry, Lisa.
00:13:01I just spoke
00:13:02with James Thornton
00:13:03and he had the lawyer
00:13:04change the will
00:13:05in our favor.
00:13:07Jessica will get nothing.
00:13:09Oh, my God.
00:13:10That's fantastic.
00:13:23No way.
00:13:30Jessica?
00:13:31How's work?
00:13:33Did you get your job back?
00:13:35Daniel,
00:13:36I need a lawyer.
00:13:37Well,
00:13:45look who decided
00:13:45to show up.
00:13:47Too bad for you,
00:13:48Jess.
00:13:48Turns out
00:13:49Daddy's will
00:13:49left you nothing.
00:13:51I knew all along
00:13:53Robert wouldn't leave
00:13:54anything
00:13:54for this little
00:13:55pathetic
00:13:56bastard child.
00:13:59You are out of luck.
00:14:00Well, that's a lie.
00:14:02You showed me the will
00:14:03and I signed
00:14:05the documents.
00:14:05I'm sorry, Jessica.
00:14:08I've just discovered
00:14:09a revised will
00:14:10that supports
00:14:11Kristen and Lisa's claims.
00:14:16Mr. Thornton.
00:14:17Who is this?
00:14:18He's my lawyer
00:14:19and a damn good one.
00:14:21Oh.
00:14:22You know, Jess,
00:14:23I didn't realize
00:14:24you had enough money
00:14:24to pay for a fancy
00:14:25little lawyer.
00:14:27You sleep with them?
00:14:29Patrick,
00:14:30can I have a word
00:14:31with you outside?
00:14:33Talk all you want.
00:14:34It won't change anything.
00:14:35All right, Patrick.
00:14:45I'm going to keep
00:14:45this short and sweet.
00:14:47I know you changed
00:14:47the will to favor
00:14:48Kristen and Lisa.
00:14:49I know what you're
00:14:50talking about,
00:14:51Mr. Thornton.
00:14:52The revised will
00:14:53solid.
00:14:54Ted found an email
00:14:55exchange with my father.
00:14:56Here,
00:14:57take a look.
00:14:59You've been caught,
00:15:00Patrick.
00:15:01Honor of the will,
00:15:02I'll report you
00:15:02to the Bar Association.
00:15:04You'll lose your license
00:15:05and any chance
00:15:05of practicing law again.
00:15:07That goes against
00:15:08your father's wishes.
00:15:09You don't understand
00:15:10the position you put me in.
00:15:11I'll deal with my father.
00:15:12Don't you worry about that.
00:15:15You just worry about
00:15:16doing the right thing.
00:15:17Um,
00:15:23this revised will
00:15:24is a fake.
00:15:25The original will stand.
00:15:26What the hell
00:15:26are you doing?
00:15:27He's doing the right thing.
00:15:31Jessica,
00:15:32you've got your
00:15:33inheritance back.
00:15:34Congratulations.

00:15:45the consequences.
00:15:45don't listen

00:15:48Patrick.
00:15:49I'll deal
00:15:50with James Thornton.
00:15:51Who the hell
00:15:52do you think
00:15:52you are?
00:15:54James Thornton
00:15:54is one of the
00:15:55most powerful men
00:15:56in this town.
00:15:58I sure can.
00:15:59Isn't that right,

00:16:06According to the
00:16:07original will,
00:16:08Jessica stands
00:16:09to inherit this mansion.
00:16:11Kristen,
00:16:12you're out.
00:16:13I think you two
00:16:14should leave.
00:16:14You homewrecker,
00:16:16just like your mother.
00:16:18I will not
00:16:19allow violence.
00:16:21I didn't come here
00:16:22to argue
00:16:23over a house
00:16:25and assets.
00:16:27I came here
00:16:27to be recognized
00:16:28as an actual member
00:16:29of this family.
00:16:30Yeah,
00:16:31well,
00:16:31it's easy for you
00:16:31to say you're
00:16:32getting everything.
00:16:32You don't know
00:16:33how lucky you are,
00:16:34Lisa.
00:16:35You grew up
00:16:36with a father
00:16:36who loved you.
00:16:38I had none.
00:16:39And you
00:16:39took my mother
00:16:41away from me
00:16:42and I still
00:16:42don't know
00:16:43where she is.
00:16:45You two
00:16:45don't deserve
00:16:46this mansion.
00:16:47And I would
00:16:48rather
00:16:48give it away
00:16:49to charity
00:16:50than to see
00:16:51the two of you
00:16:52living in it.
00:16:59You two
00:17:00should pack
00:17:00your things up.
00:17:01You have one week
00:17:02to leave this house.
00:17:02What the hell
00:17:12were you thinking?
00:17:14Sabotaging my plan?
00:17:15I was just doing
00:17:16the right thing.
00:17:17The right thing?
00:17:18Going against me?
00:17:20Kristen Miller
00:17:21has got no power
00:17:22anymore.
00:17:23Her game is over.
00:17:24I'm sure you
00:17:25didn't come all
00:17:26this way
00:17:26just to argue
00:17:27with me.
00:17:28So what do you
00:17:29want?
00:17:30I just want
00:17:31Jessica to get
00:17:31her mom back.
00:17:32Interesting.
00:17:38What's in it
00:17:39for me?
00:17:40Once Jessica
00:17:41gets her mom
00:17:41back
00:17:42I'll do
00:17:43whatever you want.
00:17:44Whatever I want?
00:17:46Like what
00:17:47exactly?
00:17:49I'll marry
00:17:49Ashley.
00:17:51You'll marry
00:17:52Ashley?
00:17:53Yeah.
00:17:55You're willing
00:17:55to do that?
00:17:56Yeah.
00:17:57I am.
00:17:59But only
00:18:00if she's reunited
00:18:00with her mother.
00:18:02Okay.
00:18:04Deal.
00:18:06I'll make
00:18:07the arrangements.
00:18:08So you're
00:18:09really in love
00:18:10with this one,
00:18:10huh?
00:18:11Yeah.
00:18:13I am.
00:18:14Okay, kid.
00:18:16I sure hope
00:18:16she's worth it.
00:18:18She is.
00:18:19Oh, what's wrong?
00:18:24We have
00:18:26a guest.
00:18:29Mr. Thornton.

00:18:33When did you two
00:18:38meet?
00:18:38Uh, we met
00:18:40at a friend's
00:18:41party two years
00:18:41ago.
00:18:43What do you
00:18:43say, Jessica?
00:18:44Hmm?
00:18:46Oh, yeah.

00:18:48Mm-hmm.
00:18:48Interesting.
00:18:50And when did you
00:18:51decide to get
00:18:52married?

00:18:56Which one is it?
00:18:57Yeah, eight months
00:18:58ago.
00:18:58Sorry, I just...
00:19:00Sorry, I'm always
00:19:01getting mixed up.
00:19:02Sure.
00:19:04Easy mistake
00:19:05to make.
00:19:06And what's your
00:19:07anniversary date?

00:19:12All right.
00:19:17Uh, that's it?
00:19:19Yes, Mr. Thornton.
00:19:21I have everything
00:19:22I need.
00:19:22I'll report back
00:19:23to the judges.
00:19:26Oh, wait.
00:19:28Uh, this.
00:19:29How did we do
00:19:32in there?
00:19:35It was
00:19:36pretty bad.
00:19:39Look.
00:19:41I'm the son
00:19:42of James Thornton.
00:19:43I know who you
00:19:44are.
00:19:46Okay.
00:19:49You want to
00:19:50bribe me?
00:19:52Yes.
00:19:53I can't be
00:19:53bribed.
00:19:55Here's one
00:19:55million dollars.
00:19:59Two million dollars.
00:20:03Right.
00:20:07Three
00:20:08million dollars.
00:20:10It's tempting,
00:20:11but like I said,
00:20:12you can't bribe me.
00:20:13Please.
00:20:14Can you just give us
00:20:15one more week
00:20:15to prepare?
00:20:17I really want
00:20:17to be with this woman.
00:20:19She means the world
00:20:20to me.
00:20:20She saved my life.
00:20:22I'm not going
00:20:23to take your money,
00:20:24but I'll give you
00:20:24one week.
00:20:25Make it count.
00:20:28Next time,
00:20:29I want to see
00:20:29some genuine
00:20:30affection between
00:20:30you two.
00:20:31If anything seems
00:20:32a bit off,
00:20:32your game's up.
00:20:34Of course.
00:20:35And one more
00:20:37thing.
00:20:37I can tell you
00:20:38two haven't
00:20:39had sex yet.
00:20:41I'm that good,
00:20:42Mr. Daniel.
00:20:43Don't try and
00:20:44fool me.
00:20:44She gave us
00:20:50another chance.
00:20:51Oh, thank God.
00:20:52We have one week
00:20:53to get our story
00:20:54straight.
00:20:55Thank you,
00:20:57Daniel.
00:20:57You've been
00:20:58very,
00:21:00very helpful
00:21:00today.
00:21:05Oh,
00:21:14Now,
00:21:17I wanted to make
00:21:19our first
00:21:19Christmas special,
00:21:20so I did a little
00:21:22digging and I
00:21:23found this.
00:21:24This tree's amazing.
00:21:31What happened?
00:21:34Let me have a look.
00:21:44I have a festive gift for you,
00:22:09too.
00:22:14Wow.
00:22:18Jess,
00:22:18you look
00:22:19gorgeous.
00:22:25And then
00:22:26I told him
00:22:27that's not
00:22:28how you negotiate.
00:22:29You did it.
00:22:30You did.
00:22:30You did it.
00:23:00This could be
00:23:13wrong.
00:23:14Maybe.
00:23:16Maybe not.
00:23:30And that
00:23:33is how you
00:23:35negotiate.
00:23:37You're only fair.
00:23:52I'm stuck.
00:23:54Hold on.
00:23:55I've got this.
00:23:56Oh.
00:24:00I've got this.
00:24:30What much
00:24:54looks familiar.
00:24:55You know, I've seen this before in the, uh, in a magazine.
00:25:02It looks like one of those, um, Thornton family watches.
00:25:09Is it real?
00:25:10Uh, no.
00:25:13It's fake.
00:25:17You wear a fake watch?
00:25:20Yeah.
00:25:25I'm so happy, Jess.
00:25:36There's also something I need to tell you about your mom.
00:25:44I guess...
00:25:46Can I...
00:25:47Can I play it?
00:25:55Oh, my God.
00:25:57Did I just sleep with Daniel last night?
00:26:00I told him it would only be a contract marriage.
00:26:11Morning.
00:26:12This is the most beautiful morning that I've ever had.
00:26:15Daniel, I'm...
00:26:17I'm so sorry about last night.
00:26:21It was...
00:26:22It wasn't supposed to happen, and I promise it will never happen again.
00:26:28She didn't mean it.
00:26:30Oh, Jessica.
00:26:31Last night was amazing.
00:26:33Uh...
00:26:33Yeah, Jess, uh...
00:26:38I get it.
00:26:38It was, uh...
00:26:40It was a one-time thing.
00:26:42Yeah, it's just, like...
00:26:45Just a one-time thing.
00:26:47Yeah.
00:26:49Anyway, it's, uh...
00:26:51Your big day today.
00:26:53You're the new CEO of the Miller Empire.
00:26:55Oh.
00:26:57Thank you...
00:26:58For the reminder.
00:27:02But now that you mention it, I'm really scared.
00:27:05Oh, no, Jess.
00:27:06I didn't mean it like that.
00:27:09What I was meant to say is...
00:27:12I don't know what to do, Mother.
00:27:21That bitch is kicking us out.
00:27:22We still have a chance.
00:27:24That bastard child needs a unanimous vote from the board to be chosen as the next CEO.
00:27:30So we just need a board member to back us up.
00:27:33I will call Richard.
00:27:34Everyone respects Richard's vote.
00:27:36And I will make sure he doesn't vote for her.
00:27:39And I'll dig up all the dirt I can find on her.
00:27:41You go, girl.
00:27:52These clothes are beautiful.
00:27:57But, uh...
00:27:58Very expensive.
00:28:00Like this one.
00:28:02That is...
00:28:03$9,000.
00:28:05Jess, don't worry about it.
00:28:08It's on me.
00:28:09Look at it as, uh...
00:28:11My first gift to my wife.
00:28:13No, but...
00:28:14Daniel, I can't let you pay for this.
00:28:16Look, Jess.
00:28:17You're gonna be a CEO.
00:28:18Which means you've gotta look the part.
00:28:21Trust me.
00:28:22It's an investment.
00:28:24Mr. Thornton.
00:28:26Welcome back.
00:28:26How can I assist you today?
00:28:28Come here a lot?
00:28:29Uh, no.
00:28:30Well, of course.
00:28:31Mr. Thornton owns this store.
00:28:33Uh, Jess, why don't you try this one on?
00:28:38You'll look great.
00:28:42Wow.
00:28:43Jess, you look amazing.
00:28:47You think so?
00:28:48Yeah.
00:28:50This is exactly what a CEO would wear.
00:28:52Absolutely.
00:28:53Great choice.
00:28:55We'll take this one.
00:28:57Something on your mind?
00:29:00Well, it's probably nothing, but it's just...
00:29:02That clerk seemed very fond of you.
00:29:05Oh, uh...
00:29:07Being friendly is a part of my job.
00:29:10Okay.
00:29:16So that's how you got your lawyer, huh?
00:29:21Now that you mention it,
00:29:23maybe she was a little friendly.
00:29:25But we got a discount.
00:29:26Show off.
00:29:36What a slut.
00:29:41Trust me, Jess.
00:29:43You can do this.
00:29:44Yeah, but what if they don't accept me?
00:29:46They will.
00:29:47Trust me.
00:29:48Just speak from the heart.
00:29:49Show your true self.
00:29:50Oh, look at you two little love birds.
00:29:56Pathetic.
00:30:00Ted,
00:30:01we're going to talk about this later.
00:30:02Okay.
00:30:05You go in.
00:30:06I'll meet you in there soon, okay?
00:30:07Good luck in there, sis.
00:30:16You're going to need it.
00:30:18You don't have the votes.
00:30:19I know my background doesn't seem very typical of a CEO, but I built myself from the bottom
00:30:29up here.
00:30:29Miller Corporation is a leader in tech and services, reaching industries from healthcare to energy.
00:30:39We have over 10,000 employees worldwide who've worked hard to build this company from the ground up.
00:30:48And I was one of them.
00:30:49I know them.
00:30:50And I believe that I can help lead this company to become everyone's company.
00:30:56Let's proceed to the vote.
00:30:58All in favor?
00:31:04Robert lost his damn mind.
00:31:06He picked his secret child to be the CEO, only because of his guilty conscience.
00:31:11Richard, if I may...
00:31:13I'm not done talking.
00:31:14You can't lead us.
00:31:16And you're not getting my vote.
00:31:18Richard, if I may speak...
00:31:21Go ahead.
00:31:22But I won't change my mind.
00:31:27Sorry for interrupting everyone, but I have something important to share with you all today.
00:31:32Who the hell are you?
00:31:33Well, Richard, I'm the person who's going to expose you.
00:31:36What did you just say?
00:31:39How do I say this?
00:31:40Uh, you're a sex pervert.
00:31:44What?
00:31:46You see...
00:31:48Everyone, this file contains multiple sexual harassment lawsuits against Richard over the past 30 years.
00:31:57Some of them also have ongoing lawsuits.
00:32:00They're all just allegations, and they've all been settled.
00:32:03I'm innocent.
00:32:04They've also got in contact with some of the victims, and they're willing to come forward and testify.
00:32:08Actually...
00:32:09I have not finished yet.
00:32:11You're also stealing money from the company.
00:32:12And we have financial records to prove it.
00:32:21The evidence is clear.
00:32:23He's guilty.
00:32:24Okay, then.
00:32:27Let's all vote for Richard Donnell's immediate suspension.
00:32:31All in favor?
00:32:36We have 15 votes.
00:32:39The board has decided.
00:32:40Richard Donnell is officially removed from his position.
00:32:44Security.
00:32:45Escort him out immediately.
00:32:46I know my way.
00:32:53And Paul in favor of appointing Jessica Miller as the new CEO.
00:32:57I'm sorry, Asalene.
00:33:14I had to make sure I had enough evidence to nail him.
00:33:17No, don't be sorry, Daniel.
00:33:18That was so worth the wait.
00:33:20I did.
00:33:20This is not over.
00:33:25You'll see.
00:33:25How's packing going, Lisa?
00:33:27You're about to be evicted, sir.
00:33:29Bye-bye-bye.
00:33:35She won again, that bitch!
00:33:37I know.
00:33:37It's so unfair.
00:33:39Do we have a guest?
00:33:40Lisa!
00:33:41Honey!
00:33:42I've been trying to reach you!
00:33:44Why haven't you returned my calls?
00:33:46I've been busy.
00:33:47Busy?
00:33:48Dealing with Jessica?
00:33:50How did you know?
00:33:51Oh, I know.
00:33:52And I think I know how to help you take it down.
00:33:56Again.
00:33:57No use to me anymore, Adrian.
00:33:58I only needed you to help me get rid of Jessica.
00:34:02To the new CEO of the Miller Empire.
00:34:07Well, I couldn't have done it without you, Danny.
00:34:10I also have another Christmas surprise for you.
00:34:14Who are you calling?
00:34:18Is it?
00:34:19Yes, Jess.
00:34:21It's your mother, Clara.
00:34:22Oh, my God!
00:34:23Mom!
00:34:25Oh, Jessica, you're a grown woman now.
00:34:28The Miller family threatened to kill you, Jess.
00:34:31I had no option but to vanish.
00:34:34Oh, Mom, it's okay.
00:34:37Like, you didn't do anything wrong.
00:34:38I'll bring you back into the country, I promised.
00:34:42Daniel, how did you find her?
00:34:44I have a few powerful friends.
00:34:46They did me a favor.
00:34:47But I'll leave you to a love.
00:35:00Two more, please.
00:35:01Daniel.
00:35:02I'll leave you to the next one.
00:35:02I'll leave you to the next one.
00:35:02I'll leave you to the next one.
00:35:03I'll leave you to the next one.
00:35:04Daniel.
00:35:06Adrian.
00:35:08Long time no see, buddy.
00:35:09Oh, my God.
00:35:10How long has it been?
00:35:12Ten years.
00:35:13Ten years.
00:35:14Oh, my God.
00:35:15The last time I must have seen you was, uh, law school.
00:35:20Yep.
00:35:21Go Reds.
00:35:22Go Reds.
00:35:24Uh, what are you doing here?
00:35:27Just in town to run some errands.
00:35:29Just about to come here for a quick bite.
00:35:31Nice, man.
00:35:31Nice.
00:35:33I saw your date earlier.
00:35:34She looks pretty.
00:35:36Yeah, my wife.
00:35:38Your wife?
00:35:38Yeah, Jess.
00:35:39You're married?
00:35:40Yes.
00:35:41Yeah, you have to introduce me to her.
00:35:43Come on, let's go say hi.
00:35:44Come and say hello.
00:35:46It's good to see you, buddy.
00:35:47Good to see you, too, man.
00:35:49Jess, I wanted you to meet an old friend of mine.
00:35:51Adrian, this is Jess.
00:35:53Jess, this is Adrian.
00:35:54We went to law school together.
00:36:01I, I, I don't want to see him.
00:36:05I, I, I don't want to see him.
00:36:09You two know each other.
00:36:11Yes, Daniel.
00:36:12I was her first boyfriend.
00:36:14Come on, Jess.
00:36:19Don't you miss me.
00:36:20I don't want to see you anymore.
00:36:23You know you're still in love with me, Jess.
00:36:25No, I don't.
00:36:30I think you should leave, Adrian.
00:36:32Okay, Daniel.
00:36:33Relax.
00:36:34Now.
00:36:35I'm leaving.
00:36:45But she knows she's lying.
00:36:51Boss, Adrian Wesley now represents Visa and Crystal Miller.
00:36:54He wanted to test the word.
00:36:56I should have known.
00:36:58What else?
00:36:59Adrian also knew she's made, Jessica.
00:37:02Actually, he's the one who sabotaged Jessica the immigration paperwork.
00:37:06It caused all this trouble.
00:37:11That son of a bitch.
00:37:13We need to win this war.
00:37:15Do whatever it takes.
00:37:24Daniel?
00:37:27Sorry.
00:37:28Did I wake you?
00:37:29No, can...
00:37:31Can you join me in bed, please?
00:37:37You sure?
00:37:42I just, I wanted to apologize for earlier, the restaurant.
00:37:50I got a bit carried away.
00:37:53Jess, you don't need to apologize.
00:37:56Adrian's an asshole.
00:37:57He's just trying to do it to get under your skin.
00:37:59I did care for Adrian once, but he just destroyed everything we had.
00:38:06I want you to know that I'm here because of you.
00:38:13And you're the only one who I love.
00:38:18No one else.
00:38:30I love you too, Jess.
00:38:33And I'm not going anywhere.
00:38:42Good morning, husband.
00:38:50Morning, wife.
00:38:52Are you ready for your big day as the new CEO?
00:38:55If only you were with me.
00:38:56You're going to do great today.
00:39:18You're going to do great today.
00:39:18Jess, here's your coffee.
00:39:32What's wrong?
00:39:33No, it's just, it's this job.
00:39:35It's all so new to me.
00:39:37Okay, calm down.
00:39:39Remember, you're the CEO, which means you're the boss.
00:39:44Yeah, but I don't know how to be a boss.
00:39:48Hey, Jess.
00:39:49Look at you sitting in the big chair now.
00:39:52Oh, Gina.
00:39:53I am so happy you're here.
00:39:56Aw, you must be Daniel.
00:40:01Jessica's been talking about you for days.
00:40:05I'm flattered.
00:40:06I really wish you could be here with me, G.
00:40:08It's exhausting.
00:40:09Oh, at least you have a job, Jess.
00:40:11I've been looking for work for the past two months.
00:40:15Jess?
00:40:16Hmm?
00:40:16Do you like Gianna being here?
00:40:22Of course.
00:40:24We've been besties since forever.
00:40:27Yeah, what kind of question is that?
00:40:29Well, why don't you use your CEO power and hire Gianna?
00:40:35Oh, I don't, I know what you mean.
00:40:38I don't understand.
00:40:39And how would you like to come work for me?
00:40:45Of course.
00:40:48Okay, then.
00:40:49My first order as a CEO.
00:40:53Gianna, you are hired as my personal assistant.
00:40:58Oh, my God, Jess.
00:40:59Thank you so much.
00:41:01See?
00:41:02Being a boss is easy.
00:41:05You can do whatever you want.
00:41:13Oh, my God.
00:41:15What's wrong?
00:41:16The company's stock prices are dropping like crazy.
00:41:20What is happening?
00:41:22This isn't normal.
00:41:24Stocks are getting dumb.
00:41:25Well, well, well.
00:41:28Looks like things aren't going so well.
00:41:30What did you do, Lisa?
00:41:32I asked Richard and some of the other investors to sell their stocks.
00:41:37The board members are not going to be happy about the stock prices, Jessica.
00:41:40And what do you want?
00:41:43Resign as CEO or I will destroy this company.
00:41:47No way.
00:41:49Okay.
00:41:51Then I will destroy this company.
00:41:53Jessica, the board members are asking to meet with you.
00:41:56They're angry.
00:41:57What are you going to do, Jess?
00:42:04Okay.
00:42:05I'll meet with the board.
00:42:07Wait, Jess.
00:42:09Don't go.
00:42:10Take a seat.
00:42:11What is it?
00:42:13Lisa, are you sure the stock prices are going down?
00:42:17Because to me, they seem to be going up and up.
00:42:21That's impossible.
00:42:22You would need at least a billion dollars.
00:42:24I guess anything's possible these days.
00:42:28God damn it!
00:42:31God, she's annoying.
00:42:36No, you must be my lucky star.
00:42:45Daniel?
00:42:48Gianna?
00:42:49I know who you are, Daniel.
00:42:51You're the son of James Thornton.
00:42:54How'd you find out?
00:42:55My identity's meant to be a secret.
00:42:57I used to work for your father.
00:42:59Please don't tell Jess.
00:43:00I'll pay you.
00:43:01How much do you want?
00:43:02I don't want your money.
00:43:04I care for my friend.
00:43:06Actually, your father fired me because I tried to help Jessica.
00:43:10I'm sorry, Gianna.
00:43:12It's okay.
00:43:14I just want to know why.
00:43:16She hates my family.
00:43:18I have to lie to her.
00:43:20She hates your family, but she loves you.
00:43:24I can see that.
00:43:26You really think so?
00:43:28Yes.
00:43:29I love her too.
00:43:31She's the best thing that's ever happened to me.
00:43:35That's good to hear.
00:43:37Please protect her.
00:43:39Daniel, it's my mom.
00:43:50Adrian threatened her.
00:43:56Adrian threatened my mom on the phone.
00:43:59He said he was going to block her from entering the country.
00:44:02What should we do?
00:44:03Jess, I don't want you to worry about it.
00:44:08I'm going to make sure your mom gets here safely.
00:44:25Ted, I need you to make sure Jessica's mom gets here safely.
00:44:30Look her on the first flight out tomorrow.
00:44:31Got it, boss.
00:44:32She'll be here in town the day after tomorrow.
00:44:35Good.
00:44:42Jess has been taken care of.
00:44:44Your mom's going to be here the day after tomorrow.
00:44:46Thank you, Daniel.
00:44:51But I'm...
00:44:51I'm still scared.
00:44:54I just...
00:44:55I need a day off.
00:44:57I love the sound of that.
00:44:59What do you have in mind?
00:45:01I was thinking...
00:45:03I want to buy a house.
00:45:06Yes.
00:45:16So?
00:45:19Do you like this place?
00:45:20It's amazing.
00:45:22But...
00:45:23Jess, I appreciate the gesture.
00:45:25But you don't need to buy me a house.
00:45:29No.
00:45:30No.
00:45:30I insist.
00:45:32You've done so much to help me.
00:45:35Besides, we can live together here.
00:45:38Miss Thornton.
00:45:39Hi.
00:45:40Your father is here.
00:45:41Are you meeting here?
00:45:47Well...
00:45:49I've never met your parents.
00:45:51So...
00:45:52I'm pretty excited to meet an in-law.
00:45:56Oh, is...
00:45:58Is that him?
00:46:00Come on, let's go say hi!
00:46:02Jess, wait.
00:46:02Uh...
00:46:03Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.
00:46:05Um...
00:46:06I might not have told my dad about you and our marriage.
00:46:11Why?
00:46:13Uh...
00:46:14Because he has a heart condition.
00:46:17I think it's best you stay here.
00:46:20Okay.
00:46:22I'll just...
00:46:24stay here, then.
00:46:26Good.
00:46:27Dad?
00:46:33God.
00:46:34Daniel, what the hell?
00:46:35Jessica's here.
00:46:36She can't see her face.
00:46:37Don't.
00:46:38Take them off.
00:46:40I want to talk to you about Ashley, Daniel.
00:46:46Why hasn't Daniel told his father about me and our wedding?
00:46:50Ashley, really?
00:46:52Not today.
00:46:55And what is this shirt you're wearing?
00:46:58Mother insisted I wear it for this charity event in the morning.
00:47:02Right.
00:47:03Said it makes me look more grounded.
00:47:07I'm approachable.
00:47:10And don't go changing our subject.
00:47:12I want to discuss our agreement.
00:47:14I give you Clara and you marry Ashley.
00:47:17Okay.
00:47:21Why does he look so nervous?
00:47:25Am I not good enough?
00:47:29Do we have to talk about this right now?
00:47:32I held up my end of the bargain, Daniel.
00:47:35I want this deal done now.
00:47:37Actually, Clara isn't safe yet.
00:47:40Lisa Miller might try and be sabotaging everything.
00:47:42This is why you don't mess with the Miller family.
00:47:46You should have left it alone.
00:47:47All I'm asking is just a few more days.
00:47:50Ashley is coming to town in a few days.
00:47:53What?
00:47:55Jess!
00:47:56Uh, Jess.
00:48:06Dad, this is Jess.
00:48:08Jess, this is Dad.
00:48:10You can call him Jimmy.
00:48:12Jimmy?
00:48:12Jimmy?
00:48:16I'm Jimmy, sweetie.
00:48:17Well, it's lovely to meet you, Jimmy.
00:48:19And can I just say, that is a lovely Hawaiian shirt.
00:48:23It really, really suits you.
00:48:25Well, thank you, Jessica.
00:48:27It's, uh, one I'm fond of.
00:48:31So, who is Ashley?
00:48:34I heard you guys talking about her earlier.
00:48:36Oh.
00:48:37She's just an old family friend.
00:48:40They grew up and went to law school together.
00:48:45And she had Daniel's first kiss.
00:48:49Oh.
00:48:50Her wedding is, uh, approaching soon.
00:48:53And, uh, I like Daniel to attend.
00:48:55Damn!
00:48:57Got reminiscing about the good old days.
00:48:59No, it's, it's fine.
00:49:00Honestly, it's lovely to hear about Daniel's childhood
00:49:02and more about his life.
00:49:04You bastard child!
00:49:05You bastard child!
00:49:10Well, well.
00:49:12What do we have here?
00:49:14You think you can afford this place?
00:49:17You're about to lose this battle
00:49:19and be out on the streets soon.
00:49:22Who's this clown?
00:49:26Looks like he belongs in a service.
00:49:28How dare you, Kristen!
00:49:30How do you know my name?
00:49:33And don't you dare call me by my first name.
00:49:35That's enough!
00:49:38Don't talk to my father like that.
00:49:40Oh!
00:49:42Oh!
00:49:43He's your father.
00:49:46Hmm.
00:49:47How does it feel to be a father of such a loser?
00:49:50Don't talk to my family like that.
00:49:53Your family.
00:49:54Your family suck, Jessica.
00:49:57Especially your mother.
00:49:59The home-wrecking tramp.
00:50:02A whore.
00:50:04Oh!
00:50:04Oh!
00:50:05Oh!
00:50:10kau!
00:50:11Damn!
00:50:23How dare you slap me!
00:50:24That is enough, Kristen.
00:50:27How dare you slap me!
00:50:29That is enough, Kristen.
00:50:32You're not going to lay a hand on my wife.
00:50:38Ladies, you need to leave now.
00:50:40You can't throw us out. We're buyers.
00:50:42We're not going anywhere.
00:50:44The owner of this property has banned you from coming here.
00:50:47You need to leave now or I will call security.
00:50:51You will regret this.
00:50:55I've heard that a thousand times.
00:50:57Now leave.
00:51:08Thank you, Jessica.
00:51:10You stood up for me.
00:51:12Well, we're family, Jimmy.
00:51:14That's what I'm supposed to do.
00:51:19Well, I appreciate it.
00:51:22You're a nice girl.
00:51:25You found a good wife, son.
00:51:29Dad.
00:51:30About Ashy's wedding.
00:51:32I don't think I'm going to be able to make it.
00:51:34I'll look into it.
00:51:35I'll speak to her about it.
00:51:36Oh, no, no, no, no.
00:51:38Daniel can still attend.
00:51:40It's...
00:51:41Jess, I just want to focus on you and I.
00:51:44I'm not the jealous type.
00:51:46I don't want you to miss your first crush's wedding.
00:51:51Well, you decide, Daniel.
00:51:53Oh.
00:51:54There's a long party.
00:51:55You two want to come?
00:51:57It's in three hours.
00:52:00Yeah.
00:52:01That will go.
00:52:03Great.
00:52:05I'll see you there.
00:52:06Well, this place is extremely high class.
00:52:19Well, my dad has a few rich friends.
00:52:24And James Thornton is here?
00:52:29I know you don't want to see him.
00:52:33But, Jess, my dad's here.
00:52:35He's going to join us later.
00:52:37Okay.
00:52:38The bidding's about to start.
00:52:46Oh, the bitch is here!
00:52:48I know.
00:52:49Don't worry.
00:52:50We can teach him a lesson.
00:52:51Yeah, how?
00:52:52Let's see if Daniel can handle a little humiliation.
00:52:57With money.
00:52:58With money?
00:52:59What money?
00:53:00I haven't gotten my inheritance back yet.
00:53:01Yeah, I know.
00:53:02Your mother spoke to Richard.
00:53:03She said he's willing to donate us some cash
00:53:05if we make Jessica look ugly.
00:53:07Oh.
00:53:10You're the best.
00:53:13I know.
00:53:18Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to this evening's auction.
00:53:21We have for you the last dance.
00:53:24Bid starts at one million dollars.
00:53:30One million dollars!

00:53:42Four million dollars!
00:53:43Four million dollars!
00:53:44What are they doing?
00:53:45Where did they get that money from?
00:53:46I don't know.
00:53:47But they're definitely trying to humiliate you here.
00:53:48Really?
00:53:49But I don't even care about this bit.
00:53:50Five million dollars!
00:53:51Daniel, what are you doing?
00:53:52Five million dollars!

00:54:00Daniel, what are you doing?
00:54:01Don't worry, Jess.
00:54:02I've got this.
00:54:03Five million dollars!
00:54:04Daniel, what are you doing?
00:54:05Don't worry, Jess.
00:54:06I've got this.
00:54:07I got six million dollars.
00:54:08Boom.
00:54:09Can't compete with that.
00:54:10Watch this.
00:54:11Seven million dollars.
00:54:24Eight million dollars!
00:54:27That just happened.
00:54:29Ten million dollars!
00:54:3110 million dollars!
00:54:34Ten million.
00:54:36Once, twice, sold.
00:54:40There's a gentleman there.
00:54:48Where did you get that money from?
00:54:51Well, do you remember me telling you about I had a powerful friend?
00:54:56Yeah, the one who helped me find my mother.
00:55:00Jessica?
00:55:01James Thornton.
00:55:03In the flesh.
00:55:04Or Mrs. Thornton.
00:55:07I want to apologize to you.
00:55:08I am truly sorry for everything I did to you and your mother.
00:55:13But I'm trying my best to make amends.
00:55:16Well, I don't know what to say.
00:55:20Jess, I know it's a lot to handle.
00:55:22You've just got to trust me.
00:55:23Yeah, but why didn't you just tell me in the first place, Daniel?
00:55:27Jess!
00:55:28Jessica!
00:55:29Don't! Follow me!
00:55:35Oh, this could get interesting.
00:55:38Oh, look who's alone.
00:55:52No, just leave me alone.
00:55:54You're never going to win against James Thornton.
00:55:56He's my mother's best friend.
00:55:58You're going to lose everything.
00:56:00Poor babe.
00:56:01Still played by the baby boys.
00:56:03James Thornton and his son have been playing you all along.
00:56:08What did you just say?
00:56:10James Thornton and his son?
00:56:12Wait, Jess, you didn't know?
00:56:14Daniel Thornton is his son.
00:56:16No!
00:56:18Oh, my God.
00:56:19Oh, I didn't know that, but now that I do...
00:56:22Wow.
00:56:24That's enough!
00:56:26Oh, excuse me, Mr. Thornton.
00:56:29Crown Prince Z of the Thornton family.
00:56:31Yes, sir.
00:56:40This man's been lying to you all along.
00:56:43Poor little girl's got no one to trust.
00:56:45Both of you, get out of here.
00:56:47I...
00:56:52Jess, I've been trying to tell you.
00:56:59Am I a joke to you?
00:57:01No.
00:57:02What do you mean?
00:57:03You and your father.
00:57:06You've been playing me this whole time.
00:57:08No.
00:57:09I've been standing by your side all the time, Jess.
00:57:12I can't...
00:57:13I can't trust you.
00:57:14You lied to me.
00:57:16You're right.
00:57:18You're right.
00:57:21I have been hiding things from you.
00:57:25You know what I haven't told you yet?
00:57:29Another big secret.
00:57:32Are you sure you want to hear this?
00:57:39The other big secret is...
00:57:41The first time we met isn't when we think it is.
00:57:44It was five years ago.
00:57:45Five years ago?
00:57:47Yes.
00:57:49At a party.
00:57:52I was drunk and I fell in a pool.
00:58:02Oh, thank God you're alive.
00:58:04I was drowning and you saved my life.
00:58:11But you won't remember that.
00:58:14But I will forever be grateful for what you did for me that day.
00:58:17I thought that was you.
00:58:19That was you?
00:58:21Yes.
00:58:22My father forbid me from seeing you.
00:58:25But I didn't care.
00:58:27I confronted him.
00:58:29You can't tell me what to do, Dad.
00:58:31You can't stop me from seeing her.
00:58:32I'm doing what's best for you, Daniel.
00:58:34That girl and all her family are nothing but trouble.
00:58:38And then he decided to tell me about everything he did to you and your mom.
00:58:43And I felt so guilty.
00:58:44It's okay.
00:58:48I was ashamed to approach you.
00:58:50I just didn't know how to face you without making things worse.
00:58:53And I thought the best thing to do was just leave you alone.
00:58:55No, I know.
00:58:58And then I heard about you being deported and I just couldn't let that happen.
00:59:01Well, I saved you.
00:59:06And you saved me.
00:59:10I guess we just belong together.
00:59:16Ew.
00:59:17Corny.
00:59:20But just no more secrets.
00:59:25I promise.
00:59:29No more secrets.
00:59:47You're up early.
00:59:48Yeah.
00:59:49I'm going to go pick your mom up from the airport.
00:59:52Better sooner than later.
00:59:55Oh.
00:59:57Giannis just texted me.
00:59:59She said that I have my first weekly exec meeting this morning.
01:00:03I should postpone it.
01:00:05No.
01:00:06You should definitely go to that.
01:00:07You need to look good in front of your board.
01:00:09Really?
01:00:10Yeah.
01:00:11I'm going to go pick your mom up from the airport and I'll bring her straight to the office.
01:00:13Thanks.
01:00:15You're the best.
01:00:21Well, that went better than I thought.
01:00:22You so much underestimated yourself, Jess.
01:00:25You did great.
01:00:30Hey, Jess.
01:00:31What are you doing here?
01:00:33What are you doing here?
01:00:38I just want to share with you some interesting facts about your dear husband, Daniel Thornton.
01:00:44Gianna, can you wait outside a moment?
01:00:50Okay.
01:00:51I'm telling you now.
01:00:53Whatever bad, made-up facts that you've come to tell me about Daniel, it's not going to work.
01:00:59Because Daniel already told me everything.
01:01:01Everything?
01:01:02Are you so sure?
01:01:04Yeah.
01:01:05Him and his father came clean about everything.
01:01:07There is nothing more to hide.
01:01:08And did they also tell you Daniel was supposed to marry his childhood sweetheart?
01:01:12What?
01:01:13Ashley Wimbledon.
01:01:15Heiress to the famous Wimbledon family.
01:01:18Ring any bells?
01:01:19Ashley.
01:01:23Ashley.
01:01:25Who is Ashley?
01:01:27I heard you guys talking about her earlier.
01:01:30Oh, she's just an old childhood friend.
01:01:34They grew up and went to law school together.
01:01:36Oh.
01:01:36And she had Daniel's first kiss.
01:01:40Oh.
01:01:43He did mention Ashley.
01:01:48He did?
01:01:49Yeah, but he's not going to marry her.
01:01:52I remember that conversation.
01:01:57Daniel's picking my mother up from the airport himself.
01:02:00I'll be seeing her soon.
01:02:03What are you laughing at?
01:02:06I'm not going to see her.
01:02:17After years of separation with your mother, Daniel didn't let you go along with him to meet with her?
01:02:23Now, what kind of a husband does that?
01:02:25I had an early meeting this morning, and Daniel didn't want me to worry.
01:02:29So easily manipulated, Jess.
01:02:33Just like old times.
01:02:35Yeah?
01:02:36Well, I don't believe a word you say.
01:02:40Daniel isn't going to bring her back.
01:02:41Care to find out the gutter?
01:02:52Are you sure everything is taken care of?
01:02:54Yes.
01:02:55You're free to live in this country.
01:02:57Clara, I also want to apologize for everything you went through years ago.
01:03:01I'm deeply sorry.
01:03:03Well, you did bring me back here.
01:03:05Right now, I just want to see my daughter.
01:03:08Well done, sir.
01:03:08Not so fast, Danny boy.
01:03:14You're too late, Lisa.
01:03:16Clara's here to claim Robert's inheritance back.
01:03:18Oh, I don't think so.
01:03:20Agents, do you think?
01:03:21Wait.
01:03:22What?
01:03:22This is a mistake.
01:03:23No.
01:03:24Clara's got past customs.
01:03:26She can stay.
01:03:27Sweetheart, you really think those little documents can stop this?
01:03:31I don't think so.
01:03:32Back off, Lisa.
01:03:33Watch it, buddy boy.
01:03:35Jess.
01:03:35Jess, mom!
01:03:36Mom!
01:03:36What are you doing?
01:03:38Where are they taking my mother?
01:03:40Mom, I'll bring you back, I promise.
01:03:42Just stay strong.
01:03:43Sis, it looks like you've been screwed by the Thorntons again.
01:03:46Adria, you sabotage this.
01:03:49You'll pay for this.
01:03:50See, babe?
01:03:51I told you he's not bringing her back.
01:03:54You said everything was taken care of.
01:03:56Jess, it's not me.
01:03:57It's them.
01:03:58You're lying, Daniel.
01:03:59Daniel, why don't you ask him about that thing we talked about?
01:04:01Jess?
01:04:04Jess?
01:04:05He said that you were going to marry Ashley.
01:04:08Okay, so it's true.
01:04:09Jess, can we just talk about this?
01:04:12No.
01:04:13No, no, no, no, no.
01:04:14Thing is, Daniel, you promised me no more secrets.
01:04:17I can't trust you anymore.
01:04:19Jess!
01:04:20Can you?
01:04:20It's just, uh, looks like you lost, Daniel.
01:04:23You're never getting her back.
01:04:24Oh, thank God you're alive.
01:04:54Ted, what's the problem with Clara?
01:05:16Her paperwork was flawless.
01:05:17I don't know.
01:05:24Agents, do you think?
01:05:31Wait.
01:05:32What?
01:05:32This is a mistake.
01:05:33No.
01:05:35Jess.
01:05:36Jess, baby!
01:05:37Mom!
01:05:40The ICE agents weren't real.
01:05:43They were hired by Adrian and Lisa to kidnap Clara.
01:05:45Hold on, thanks.
01:05:49You're right, boss.
01:05:51We found out those people want to.
01:05:53What should we do?
01:05:54I need to find out where they took them.
01:05:56Use all our contacts.
01:05:58I'm not going to let them get away with this.
01:06:00On it, boss.
01:06:09Well, well, well, Clara.
01:06:11Bet you didn't expect to see me again, did you?
01:06:14We finally have what it takes to get it all back?
01:06:17Don't look at me like that.
01:06:19You disgust me.
01:06:26Jess, we need to talk.
01:06:28I don't want to talk to you.
01:06:29It's about your mom.
01:06:30I think she was kidnapped by Adrian and Lisa's people.
01:06:33The ICE agents weren't real.
01:06:35What are you talking about?
01:06:37I spoke to Ted.
01:06:39He told me that Clara illegally came into the country.
01:06:41It was a setup.
01:06:44Do you actually expect me to believe that?
01:06:46After all the lies, you're so full of shit, Daniel!
01:06:57Hello, bastard child.
01:06:59Yes, we have your mother.
01:07:01And if you ever want to see her again,
01:07:03follow the directions to the address that we just sent you.
01:07:05And don't bring anyone.
01:07:07Especially Daniel.
01:07:08Daniel.
01:07:11Let me come with you.
01:07:13No, they want me alone.
01:07:14I don't want to respond to her.
01:07:15Jess.
01:07:15Don't follow me.
01:07:16I will not let you do this alone.
01:07:24Mom?
01:07:26Bastard child, over here.
01:07:28You let her go.
01:07:29This is going on far enough.
01:07:31Not so fast, this.
01:07:33This is only the beginning.
01:07:39You sign this.
01:07:40We let her go.
01:07:43And what is it?
01:07:45An agreement signing everything over to us.
01:07:48The house.
01:07:49The company.
01:07:51Everything.
01:07:59It's signed.
01:08:02Now let her go.
01:08:03God, you are so nice, sis.
01:08:06What more do you want?
01:08:09Get down on your knees and show that you know your place.
01:08:16Get down on your knees and show that you know your place.
01:08:21Wait.
01:08:26That's better.
01:08:27Now bark like a dog.
01:08:40Come on.
01:08:44Nothing up, Kristen.
01:08:47Get up.
01:08:48We're getting up here, Monk.
01:08:52Let's get her out of here.
01:09:00Come on.
01:09:00Let's go.
01:09:02Come on, Daniel.
01:09:06Come on, we're going to go.
01:09:07Mom, we need to finish with this.
01:09:09Mom, we gotta go.
01:09:10Come on.
01:09:12Daniel.
01:09:12Jess.
01:09:20Don't try and talk.
01:09:22The police.
01:09:22They're on their way.
01:09:23Jess.
01:09:25I'm so sorry.
01:09:26Why are you apologizing?
01:09:28Just don't move.
01:09:30The doctor said it was nothing serious, so you'll be out of here soon.
01:09:44Jess, I just want to apologize.
01:09:47I am so sorry.
01:09:48Daniel, what are you apologizing for?
01:09:52You saved my mom.
01:09:53You saved us.
01:09:56Hello again, Mr. Thornton.
01:09:58Officer.
01:09:59You're here.
01:10:00Yes.
01:10:02You promised me last week we'd get that interview done.
01:10:06Officer, my husband is injured.
01:10:09He's literally lying in bed.
01:10:11Well, that doesn't change the requirements.
01:10:14Jess, it's okay.
01:10:17We can do the interview.
01:10:22We can do the interview.
01:10:25Are you insane?
01:10:27We haven't rehearsed this.
01:10:29Jess, when you see, we've been rehearsing this whole Christmas.
01:10:34There is no better time to do this.
01:10:36You're right.
01:10:40We're ready, officer.
01:10:41Let's start with the question I asked you last week.
01:10:44When did you two first meet?
01:10:46Five years and four months ago.
01:10:48I don't understand.
01:10:50Last time you said it was six months ago, when the other one said it was eight months ago.
01:10:55We lied, officer.
01:10:58But it was five years ago.
01:11:00At a pool party.
01:11:02And we had our first kiss when we first met.
01:11:03It sounds pretty far-fetched.
01:11:09But for some reason, I want to give you two the benefit of the doubt.
01:11:13Daniel risked his life to save me and my mother.
01:11:27There's nothing more that he needs to do to prove his love for me.
01:11:31One last question.
01:11:33How frequently have you two spent the night together in the past week?
01:11:43Relax.
01:11:44I can tell it's been at least three times.
01:11:47Right.
01:11:48Well, that's my interview done.
01:11:50You two are quite the couple.
01:11:52Thank you, officer.
01:11:53Daniel, Daniel, Daniel, Daniel, she's coming.
01:11:58Who's coming?
01:12:05Your fiancé.
01:12:06That's who.
01:12:11Your fiancé.
01:12:13That's who.
01:12:15Ashley.
01:12:16I guess I'm not done yet.
01:12:18You betrayed my family's trust, Daniel.
01:12:22Ashley.
01:12:23Please, can't we talk about this?
01:12:26So you're Jessica Miller, huh?
01:12:29Adrian's told me all about you.
01:12:31I don't know what Adrian told you, but it's not what you think.
01:12:36Daniel was supposed to marry me.
01:12:39And then you just waltzed in and ruined everything.
01:12:43Ashley.
01:12:44Our engagement was long over before Jessica came to the picture.
01:12:50Oh.
01:12:51I see.
01:12:52You think this is over.
01:12:56I'm the heiress of the Wimbledon family.
01:12:59The Thornton name is as good as ruined.
01:13:04You can't do that, Ashley.
01:13:10Watch me.
01:13:10You're not the only heiress here.
01:13:15You're not the only heiress here.
01:13:20I own Miller Empire.
01:13:24And if you come for the Thorntons, the Miller Empire is going to come for you so hard.
01:13:32You've got guts, Jessica.
01:13:35You've got guts, Jessica.
01:13:37I like you.
01:13:42Well, I gotta tell ya.
01:13:44I didn't expect that.
01:13:46This is so much better than watching TV.
01:13:48Glad to see you've replaced me with someone with a little fire, Daniel.
01:13:51I always knew Daniel didn't love me, but he was too afraid of his father to ever go after
01:14:03his true love.
01:14:05But I guess I'm happy that he's found someone who wants the same things as him.
01:14:11So, that's it?
01:14:18That's it.
01:14:22Enjoy your happy ending, darling.
01:14:28Andrea, bring the car around.
01:14:33Did that actually just happen?
01:14:35Yeah.
01:14:37Wow.
01:14:37You two, really don't let anyone, or anything, get in the way of true love.
01:14:44You didn't see that coming.
01:14:47This is all your fault, Mom.
01:14:49If you wouldn't have been so reckless, then maybe we wouldn't be in this mess.
01:14:52Don't put all the blame on me.
01:14:53You're just as much a part of this as I am.
01:14:55Where is Aja?
01:14:56You should be here by now.
01:14:59Miss me?
01:15:00Where have you been?
01:15:01Just tying up a few loose ends.
01:15:03Don't worry about it.
01:15:05Everything's going according to plan.
01:15:07Plan?
01:15:08What plan?
01:15:09Everything's falling apart.
01:15:19What did you do, Adrian?
01:15:23Well, me, myself, I done nothing illegal.
01:15:26You two, on the other hand, that's a different story.
01:15:30You set us up!
01:15:31I'm just ensuring my own safety.
01:15:34After all, I kept my hands clean.
01:15:42Ow!
01:15:42You're not going to get away with this, asshole!
01:15:45I already have.
01:15:46I remember when this place was filled with warmth and laughter.
01:15:57It used to be a real family home back then.
01:16:01Then things just went south.
01:16:03Things will be fine again, Mom.
01:16:05I promise.
01:16:06We'll turn this into a good family house.
01:16:08No more hatred.
01:16:10No more backstabbing.
01:16:12Oh, I missed you every single day, Jess.
01:16:14I'm so sorry for everything both of us had to go through.
01:16:21Jessica?
01:16:23Well?
01:16:23I am so sorry for everything that I've done to you both.
01:16:29I was wrong.
01:16:31And I know I can never fully make up for it.
01:16:35But I want to try.
01:16:36James, you kept us apart for so many years.
01:16:39It's going to be hard to forgive and forget.
01:16:41I know, Clara.
01:16:46Jess, are you all right?
01:16:47Yeah, no, I'm fine.
01:16:53I just feel...
01:16:55I feel nauseous, that's all.
01:16:58Have you been getting any other symptoms, like dizziness or fatigue?
01:17:03Well, yeah, but I just thought that was from all the stress.
01:17:07Oh.
01:17:10Sweetheart, you're pregnant.
01:17:13Really?
01:17:14You're showing all the signs, Jess.
01:17:16We're going to have a baby.
01:17:21Wait.
01:17:22That means I'm going to be a grandpa.
01:17:26Yeah.
01:17:34Daniel.
01:17:37There's something you need to do.
01:17:41What's this?
01:17:43This is a ring your grandma left.
01:17:46And I think this is the perfect time to use it.
01:17:50Congrats.
01:17:51You're going to do this?
01:17:52Yeah.
01:18:03Jess?
01:18:04Jess!
01:18:05Jess, I know we've only ever spent time together a week during Christmas.
01:18:12And we've been through so much in that time.
01:18:15And over the past five years, all I've wanted to do is be with you.
01:18:19And I've had to endure the pain of that not being possible.
01:18:23I want to spend every waking moment in time with you.
01:18:26What I'm trying to say is, Jess,
01:18:28will you marry me?
01:18:35For real this time.
01:18:37Okay.
01:18:38Yes, Daniel.
01:18:39Yes, I will marry you.
01:18:40Yes.
01:18:41Really?
01:18:42Yes.
01:18:42It's really much.
01:18:48I don't..
01:18:48I don't..
01:18:48it's..
01:18:49yes.
01:18:49that..
01:18:50I don't know.
01:18:50I don't know.
01:18:51Do you..
01:18:52..
01:18:52it's nice.
01:18:52You
