00:00:00Whoever has a child first, either you or your sister, will inherit the Benson group.
00:00:22They're all ready for you.
00:00:25Welcome, Miss Benson.
00:00:27Sorry, Miss, why are you in such a rush?
00:00:31This whole inheritance thing was my grandfather's idea.
00:00:34I would rather die than let my sister run things.
00:00:38Not this one.
00:00:46Is this it?
00:00:47How am I supposed to trust that their genes are good enough for my child?
00:00:50I made sure they met the requirements.
00:00:53Over six foot two inches tall, no family history of genetic diseases, and Ivy League graduates.
00:01:00Miss Benson, I personally chose each one just for you.
00:01:03Miss Benson, you had a little too much, let me help you see your room.
00:01:20No, I can handle it myself.
00:01:22You can go.
00:01:23All right, take care, sir.
00:01:30You over there in the corner.
00:01:34Why weren't you lined up with the others?
00:01:35Bring him to my room.
00:01:48Yes, Miss Benson.
00:01:48Well, this isn't what I expected for today, but I'm sure you know who you're dealing with.
00:02:03You talk too much.
00:02:06You talk too much.
00:02:18If you're asking for trouble.
00:02:29You're awake already.
00:02:55You were great last night.
00:02:59What do you mean?
00:03:01What?
00:03:02You want me to give you a pat on the back?
00:03:05Don't get greedy.
00:03:07I've given you more than enough.
00:03:14You really have no idea who I am, do you?
00:03:17I don't need to.
00:03:18Happy with last night?
00:03:37Not bad.
00:03:38Wow, if that comes out of your mouth, that's a really nice compliment.
00:03:44The proposal for the bidding project has been submitted to the Palma Group.
00:03:48But I hear there's quite a few submissions.
00:03:51Yeah, we need to land that project no matter what.
00:03:54Want to whatever it takes.
00:03:56Elliot Palmer just returned to the country yesterday.
00:03:58It's said he'll personally oversee this project.
00:04:09Why does he look so familiar?
00:04:14Why does he look so familiar?
00:04:15Did you really think getting a project from the Palma Group would be that easy?
00:04:28Kathleen?
00:04:29What are you doing here?
00:04:31Just here to wake you from your daydream.
00:04:33Oh, by the way, my fiancée, Zonda, is going to introduce me to Mr. Elliot at the Palma Group's bidding event.
00:04:42How does that sound?
00:04:45You and your good-for-nothing boyfriend.
00:04:48It sounds impossible.
00:04:49Don't forget, Zonda is Mr. Palmer's nephew.
00:04:53And you're just a nobody, sir.
00:04:57Unfortunately for you, Mr. Palmer's not so stupid, so I think I'll make the right decision.
00:05:03Just wait till I have this project secured.
00:05:07You'll be the first to know this.
00:05:20How are you feeling, sir?
00:05:22I had a few too many last night.
00:05:27Did you get...
00:05:28There are...
00:05:32Several companies interested in partnering on this project.
00:05:36Here are the proposals.
00:05:40Yeah, these are mediocre.
00:05:46This one from the Benson Group.
00:05:51Make sure they're invited to tomorrow's pre-vid conference.
00:05:53Mr. Palmer, I've sent the invite to the Benson Group upon your request.
00:06:12Their rep is Miss Claire.
00:06:14Yeah, that's it.
00:06:26It is her.
00:06:31What are you doing here?
00:06:32Oh, I pitched a project to the Palmer Group and got invited.
00:06:35Turns out Mr. Palmer's really interested in what I have to say.
00:06:43Don't get too confident.
00:06:44There's a lot that can still happen.
00:06:46Once I sit down with Mr. Palmer and go over the details, he'll choose me for sure.
00:06:51You little sis just need to worry about looking pretty.
00:06:54Leave the business stuff to me.
00:06:58Claire.
00:06:58I don't let her get to you.
00:07:00She's just jealous.
00:07:02No.
00:07:04I'll find a way to get rid of her.
00:07:05Jesus, sis, how are you so clumsy?
00:07:28What are you doing?
00:07:30Are you trying to ruin the conference or something?
00:07:32Who is that?
00:07:33Causing such a commotion at the Palmer's Group bidding event.
00:07:37I heard she's the Benson family's eldest daughter.
00:07:40So irresponsible.
00:07:42You pushed me!
00:07:44Oh, Claire, don't make false accusations.
00:07:47If you're going to make such a scene, you might as well leave.
00:07:50Yeah.
00:07:51Claire, just go.
00:07:52We don't want to mess up the deal and upset the Palmer family.
00:07:55I was invited.
00:07:56Who are you to throw me out?
00:07:58Well, as a Palmer, we can do exactly as we please.
00:08:03Mr. Palmer has arrived.
00:08:11Mr. Palmer has arrived.
00:08:12Mr. Palmer has arrived.
00:08:12I'm Charlie Wheeler, Mr. Palmer's secretary.
00:08:25Thank you all so much for attending the pre-bid conference.
00:08:28Mr. Palmer is tied up with some urgent matters and won't be attending.
00:08:32Thank you for your understanding.
00:08:33Well, Mr. Palmer is a bit of a mystery.
00:08:37It's tough to catch him.
00:08:38That's a shame.
00:08:39I was really looking forward to getting to know him.
00:08:41Everyone here is thinking the same thing.
00:08:43Did you really think you had a shot?
00:08:46Mr. Wheeler, I'm so sorry, but my sister was a bit clumsy and made a mess.
00:08:51I will have her leave right away.
00:08:56Miss Benson, we apologise for the complication.
00:08:59To make it right, Mr. Palmer has arranged some fresh clothes for you, if you'd like to follow me.
00:09:06Me?
00:09:07Yes, please.
00:09:09Come with me.
00:09:10Wow, does this mean she might actually get to meet Mr. Palmer?
00:09:20What luck.
00:09:22If I'd have known that, I'd have made a scene too.
00:09:27I just made things easier for Claire.
00:09:31Uncle Elliot doesn't usually miss things like this.
00:09:34I wonder what got into him.
00:09:37Santa.
00:09:38Help me figure out a way to sabotage Claire's proposal.
00:09:42If I get this project, I'll have more power in the company.
00:09:47I'll see what I can do.
00:09:55Charlie, can I ask you something?
00:09:57Sure thing.
00:09:58What's on your mind?
00:09:59Is it possible to have a chat with Mr. Palmer?
00:10:01I've done a deep dive into the Palmer Group's co-embedding project, and I've put together a solid proposal.
00:10:06I'd like to speak to Mr. Palmer in person.
00:10:10According to protocol, you would need to speak with the project manager at Palmer Group first.
00:10:14But I'll check in with Mr. Palmer.
00:10:22Lee, isn't that the escort from before?
00:10:27Has he found himself a sugar mama?
00:10:30Miss Benson?
00:10:31Mr. Palmer has left a spare change of clothes in there for you.
00:10:36I'll be right back, okay?
00:10:37Thank you, Charlie.
00:10:39You've been gone so long.
00:10:41Did you lose weight?
00:10:44Are you taking care of yourself?
00:10:47Now, Grandma keeps asking about you.
00:10:49Don't forget to visit her when you're free.
00:10:52I'll make sure I see her soon.
00:10:56You go on and keep Grandma company.
00:10:58I'll catch up to you once I finish my work.
00:11:03Mr. Palmer?
00:11:05Miss Benson mentioned that she had a detailed proposal and wants to talk to you.
00:11:09She wants to see me.
00:11:12All right.
00:11:13Oh, by the way, I need you to run a background check on Claire.
00:11:17Consider it done, sir.
00:11:19Hmm, Mr. Palmer has a great taste.
00:11:33What are you doing here?
00:11:36Weren't you the one who wanted to see me?
00:11:41Weren't you the one who wanted to see me?
00:11:43What are you talking about?
00:11:48Not bad.
00:11:49I just really suits you.
00:11:52This is a bidding event for the Palmer Group family.
00:11:54You need to leave, like, right now.
00:11:59It's hurt.
00:12:04How do you know I was hurt?
00:12:11How do you know you weigh around everything so well?
00:12:13I've been here a few times.
00:12:14Do you treat every woman like this?
00:12:31What do you mean?
00:12:32Well, I just noticed.
00:12:34It seems you've attached yourself to a rich guest at the Palmer Group event.
00:12:38Must have some solid connections.
00:12:40I really think you've got the wrong idea.
00:12:41I really think you've got the wrong idea.
00:12:42You know what I'm trying to explain?
00:12:44I know you're just trying to impress me with your tricks.
00:12:47I won't be coming back to you again.
00:12:49You don't mean to waste your energy on me.
00:12:53Are you really sure you won't come looking for me later?
00:12:57You might end up regretting it.
00:12:59With all these options,
00:13:01why would I regret anything?
00:13:02Oh, Claire.
00:13:05I can't wait for you to see my true self.
00:13:12Charlie,
00:13:12did Mr. Palmer agree to meet with me?
00:13:15I'm sorry.
00:13:16Mr. Palmer isn't free today.
00:13:19When is he free?
00:13:20Can you set up a meeting?
00:13:22I shall let you know
00:13:23as soon as he's available to meet.
00:13:25Thank you for your help.
00:13:27Grandfather,
00:13:33are you okay?
00:13:35Why did you call the doctor?
00:13:36It's all your fault, Claire.
00:13:38Thankfully,
00:13:39the doctor got hit just in time.
00:13:41Claire,
00:13:42what happened at the banquet?
00:13:44The Palmer group
00:13:46foamed me directly,
00:13:48postponing
00:13:49our cooperation
00:13:50with the Benson group.
00:13:53What?
00:13:53But why?
00:13:54Isn't it...
00:13:56because you made a fool of yourself
00:13:57at the bidding event
00:13:58and caused such a scene.
00:14:00How can that be?
00:14:02There.
00:14:03You've really disappointed me.
00:14:09You know how everybody
00:14:11is relying on this project.
00:14:14Don't worry, Grandpa.
00:14:16Xander is going to talk
00:14:17to Mr. Palmer for me.
00:14:19Well done.
00:14:20Xander will have to work
00:14:22very hard
00:14:23on the cooperation.
00:14:24That isn't needed.
00:14:27I'll take back
00:14:28the project myself.
00:14:29Um, you don't have an appointment
00:14:40so you can't go up.
00:14:43Okay, fine.
00:14:44Can I make an appointment
00:14:45right now?
00:14:46Unfortunately,
00:14:47Mr. Palmer's schedule
00:14:48is packed
00:14:49for the next
00:14:49three months.
00:14:54So, you can leave
00:14:54your contact info with us
00:14:56and we'll get back
00:14:57to you right away.
00:15:19Mr. Palmer's office
00:15:20is on the top floor.
00:15:22Why can't I find it?
00:15:25Hey,
00:15:26didn't you guys
00:15:26finish up my repairs already?
00:15:28What are you still doing here?
00:15:29Yeah,
00:15:30yeah,
00:15:30well,
00:15:31be right down.
00:15:31Hey,
00:15:32you,

00:15:33Where are you going?
00:15:34Who are you?
00:15:35Security!
00:15:38Mr. Palmer,
00:15:39I'm so sorry
00:15:40to intrude.
00:15:41My name's Claire,
00:15:42Claire Benson,
00:15:43and we're called you.
00:15:43Shh!
00:15:47What?
00:15:47What's with the outfit?
00:15:58Darling,
00:15:59I've got a table
00:16:00for us tonight.
00:16:04Why is there
00:16:05a pshama here?
00:16:11Madam,
00:16:12I apologize
00:16:13this is my mistake.
00:16:14I'll make sure
00:16:14that you get
00:16:15on the back to it.
00:16:16Okay,
00:16:16okay,
00:16:16let me go.
00:16:19I just wanted to,
00:16:19I just wanted to speak
00:16:20to Mr. Palmer.
00:16:23Do you know her?
00:16:24Yeah.
00:16:26Of course,
00:16:27passed a few times.
00:16:31Right,
00:16:31all right,
00:16:32I can walk myself.
00:16:35I've seen a lot
00:16:36of women like you
00:16:37come around here
00:16:38and try and get close
00:16:39to Mr. Palmer.
00:16:40But let me show you
00:16:41that won't work.
00:16:43Is that lady in there,
00:16:44Mrs. Margaret Palmer?
00:16:45If you think
00:16:46you're going to use her
00:16:47to get close
00:16:48to Mr. Palmer,
00:16:49let me be clear
00:16:50that won't work.
00:16:52Mrs. Margaret Palmer
00:16:53having that kind of meeting
00:16:54in her son's office,
00:16:56that's a real shocker.
00:17:04How did the meeting go?
00:17:05Didn't even get to see
00:17:07Elliot Palmer.
00:17:08I need to find another way.
00:17:09Kathleen might be expecting.
00:17:23Are you kidding?
00:17:27Kathleen and her fiancé
00:17:28went to the maternity clinic
00:17:29together today.
00:17:31This can't be happening.
00:17:33I need to figure this out
00:17:34immediately.
00:17:35Keep searching for someone.
00:17:38Don't hold back
00:17:39on the cost.
00:17:39I need this tonight.
00:17:48Are you telling me
00:17:50Claire was looking
00:17:51for a male escort?
00:17:54Yes, sir.
00:17:55Her grandfather
00:17:55has made it clear
00:17:56that only those
00:17:57who can provide
00:17:57a third generation first
00:17:59will inherit
00:17:59the Benson family business.
00:18:01so she came up
00:18:03with this absurd plan
00:18:04and she thinks
00:18:05I'm one of them.
00:18:06I also heard that
00:18:07she's on the lookout
00:18:08for a male escort tonight.
00:18:11It seems she didn't
00:18:12have any luck
00:18:13last time around.
00:18:16I need to find out
00:18:17why she's meeting
00:18:17these escorts tonight.
00:18:18I've got loads
00:18:29of chicks
00:18:30up my sleeve
00:18:31so I'll definitely
00:18:32please you.
00:18:35Child, uh
00:18:35next?
00:18:38Uh, that's been
00:18:39uh, I, uh
00:18:41my name is
00:18:42you can't even say
00:18:46your own name.
00:18:47Next?
00:18:47Oh, this one
00:18:49looks nice.
00:18:51Look at those biceps.
00:18:54Skipping leg day
00:18:55though.
00:18:58Who are these people
00:18:59you're bringing to me?
00:19:03I just want someone
00:19:04who feels right.
00:19:06Do you have
00:19:07any specific requests?
00:19:17He was definitely
00:19:22the best.
00:19:24I shouldn't have been
00:19:25so tough on him.
00:19:27The one in black
00:19:28looks decent.
00:19:29Bring him to my room.
00:19:30Mr. Palmer, what can I do
00:19:48for you?
00:19:48Quit?
00:19:54Quit.
00:20:00Why?
00:20:01Why would someone
00:20:02say no to my offer?
00:20:03He mentioned
00:20:04he had an emergency.
00:20:07Okay, so hire someone else then.
00:20:10I saw one of the other guys like a moment ago.
00:20:13He's not available either.
00:20:15What, you had an emergency as well?
00:20:18No, Miss Benson, he's already been hired by someone else.
00:20:21What about the others?
00:20:23I just spoke to the manager and he said...
00:20:28He said what?
00:20:29There's only one escort left in the entire place.
00:20:32How is that possible?
00:20:34The manager said a VIP booked out all the others.
00:20:39All hired by one person.
00:20:45That is quite a craving.
00:20:48Alright, let's just go with the one that's available.
00:21:00You again?
00:21:01I just wanted to be sure who the father of your baby was.
00:21:04I just wanted to be sure who the father of your baby was.
00:21:05I just wanted to be sure who the father of your baby was.
00:21:06I just wanted to be sure who the father of your baby was.
00:21:07I just wanted to be sure who the father of your baby was.
00:21:08I just wanted to be sure who the father of your baby was.
00:21:09I just wanted to be sure who the father of your baby was.
00:21:10I just wanted to be sure who the father of your baby was.
00:21:11I just wanted to be sure who the father of your baby was.
00:21:12I just wanted to be sure who the father of your baby was.
00:21:13I just wanted to be sure who the father of your baby was.
00:21:14I just wanted to be sure who the father of your baby was.
00:21:15I just wanted to be sure who the father of your baby was.
00:21:16I just wanted to be sure who the father of your baby was.
00:21:17I just wanted to be sure who the father of your baby was.
00:21:34Why does my nose itch?
00:21:43It's just the AC or something.
00:21:51Give me your phone.
00:22:04I'll call you when I'm ready again.
00:22:11Just don't book anyone else until then.
00:22:16Okay, well, I'll just be waiting for you here.
00:22:25I heard a VIP dropped a load of cash in here yesterday.
00:22:30You mean Mr. Palmer?
00:22:32Mr. Palmer?
00:22:35Elliot Palmer was in here last night.
00:22:41Elliot Palmer was in here last night.
00:22:44Oh, he was definitely here, if you know what I mean.
00:22:48You mean...
00:22:51You didn't hear it from me, but Mr. Palmer asked for all the male escorts.
00:22:58I can't believe Elliot would be into something like that.
00:23:00But I guess if Margaret is a wild card, why wouldn't her son?
00:23:05No wonder they're related.
00:23:07Does Mr. Palmer come here often?
00:23:10That was his first visit.
00:23:11Please do let me know if he comes again.
00:23:14That might not be the best idea.
00:23:16No worries, Miss Benson.
00:23:28I'll handle it.
00:23:30Claire, do you even realise the trouble you've caused?
00:23:40Claire, do you see the mess you've created?
00:23:42Claire, do you see the mess you've created?
00:23:55Claire, even if you are looking for a guy, you should need to settle for an escort.
00:24:06Claire, the gossip is already everywhere, saying your personal life is a disaster.
00:24:12And it's his events in stock prices.
00:24:17Claire, I'm very disappointed.
00:24:20Grandfather, it's a misunderstanding, clearly.
00:24:24I was at the bar for business.
00:24:27I actually have a boyfriend.
00:24:28How did I not know about that?
00:24:36Since when do you need to know my personal life?
00:24:41Why not have him come to Grandpa's birthday in a few days?
00:24:47Have him meet Grandpa.
00:24:50Tuffy's got a good point.
00:24:52I want to see if he's a good fit.
00:24:54If he is, we can get and handle things early.
00:24:59Quiet the rumours and boost the stock prices.
00:25:06Yes, Grandpa.
00:25:15Here.
00:25:16This is for you.
00:25:22You're so generous.
00:25:24Sir, last night you were...
00:25:34Oh, thank you for your arrangements last night.
00:25:42All right.
00:25:43See you.
00:25:47Miss Benson really is something else.
00:25:49It was just yesterday she was asking me about Mr Palmer.
00:25:52Look at them now.
00:25:53So close already.
00:25:58Isn't Alfred your boss?
00:26:00Why didn't he just call you sir?
00:26:02He did?
00:26:03He was always nice to us.
00:26:07Speaking of last night, I heard Mr Palmer
00:26:09rented out the whole place to mail as once.
00:26:13You knew the mysterious Mr Palmer had such a wild taste.
00:26:16I wonder he's never around.
00:26:18He's probably too busy in the bed.
00:26:20Is that why you wanted to see me?
00:26:23No.
00:26:24I want you to be my boyfriend.
00:26:31Are you for real?
00:26:34Well, it's just an act to help me deal with my grandfather.
00:26:39Do you think this will work?
00:26:41Don't worry, I'll make sure that you're happy with the deal.
00:26:43Honey Elaine won't cut it.
00:26:46Fine, what do you want?
00:26:48Don't be too greedy.
00:26:50I just want this.
00:26:54You.
00:26:54From now on, you're a young entrepreneur
00:27:03just returning home from business.
00:27:07Right.
00:27:09Let's go find you an outfit.
00:27:10What?
00:27:18Are you saying Mike won't let me borrow the clothes?
00:27:21Yes, that's right.
00:27:23Mr Brown decided not to lend out anything.
00:27:26Borrow it?
00:27:27Why didn't you just buy it?
00:27:29Mike's design is the most exclusive in the country.
00:27:33Even celebrities from overseas have to book a year in advance
00:27:36to wear his clothing.
00:27:38It's not something you can just buy.
00:27:40We had a deal.
00:27:42Where is Mike?
00:27:43I want to speak with him personally.
00:27:45He's not here.
00:27:47Or he's just avoiding me.
00:27:51Enough.
00:27:55I can't lend you the outfits, my love.
00:27:59Why?
00:28:00With all this recent media attention around you,
00:28:04aligning my brand with you right now is not ideal.
00:28:07Especially considering I can't control who may end up in my designs.
00:28:13Oh, I hope you understand.
00:28:14It's nothing personal.
00:28:15I just have to prioritize what's best for me and my brand.
00:28:19What's the issue here?
00:28:24You!
00:28:25Mr Pike, is it?
00:28:27That's me.
00:28:29So, um, I'm hearing that I'm not worthy to wear your clothes.
00:28:33Oh, no, no, no, no, no, no, not at all.
00:28:36It would be an honor if you were to wear my designs.
00:28:40Um, sorry, is this how you treat all your customers?
00:28:44Oh, oh, I'm so sorry, Miss Spencer.
00:28:48This is all my fault.
00:28:49Why the sudden change in attitudes?
00:28:52Well, this, um, gentleman's style and presence
00:28:57aligns perfectly with my brand's vision.
00:29:01Please, please, if I may, if I may.
00:29:06Who says that looks can't pay the bills?
00:29:08If you like a glove.
00:29:29Well, it was styled just right for this gentleman.
00:29:33Let's see what Kathleen has to say this time.
00:29:38Hey, just remember, this is a 1945 Chateau de John Rothschild.
00:29:44Just say that you brought it.
00:29:46I already told you, I have a gift.
00:29:48It's on its way.
00:29:49What could you have missed?
00:29:50Oh, my God.
00:29:51I know your job is tough.
00:29:52Don't go crazy with it, okay?
00:29:54Just keep it short.
00:29:55Don't let anything slip.
00:29:57Hello, Mr. Benson.
00:30:09My name's Elliot.
00:30:10I'm Claire's boyfriend.
00:30:12Elliot.
00:30:14Hmm.
00:30:14Please take a seat.
00:30:19Where on earth did Claire find a guy like him?
00:30:23That's a mic design, isn't it?
00:30:25Don't worry.
00:30:27I heard Claire went to a bar the other day.
00:30:34She probably hired him.
00:30:37I'll expose her to sweet.
00:30:43So, Elliot, what do you do?
00:30:47Well, I work...
00:30:48Well, he just moved back to the country and started a construction company.
00:30:56Oh, isn't that something?
00:30:59The Benson Group's just getting into construction, too.
00:31:02Why not have Claire's new boyfriend share his future plans with Grandpa?
00:31:08Maybe even share some advice?
00:31:13Well, he's just starting out.
00:31:15You know, he's just figuring it out right now, learning the ropes.
00:31:18Claire, can your boyfriend not speak for himself?
00:31:20Claire, stop interrupting.
00:31:26I'd like to hear what Elliot thinks.
00:31:28I want to shake up the building bid that's traditionally used and, um, agencies.
00:31:51Now, these won't be like regular branches.
00:31:54They'll, um...
00:31:55They'll produce everything themselves to keep higher profit margins on the overall projects.
00:32:04He really seems to know what he's talking about.
00:32:08It's just a coincidence.
00:32:10Elliot, our chat today has, uh, really given me a lot to think about.
00:32:14You've done an awful lot for a man of your age.
00:32:18Thank you, sir.
00:32:20Wow, you must have really put an effort to memorise that.
00:32:22Oh, that was definitely needed.
00:32:25Oh, Grandpa!
00:32:27Elliot also bought you a gift.
00:32:32Is this a rare vintage wine?
00:32:34Yeah, we bought it as, um, a sign of respect to you.
00:32:38We hope you enjoy it.
00:32:44Oh, I remember this bottle.
00:32:47It was auctioned off last month.
00:32:50The last name of the buyer was Benson, right?
00:32:54No, you must be wrong.
00:32:57I actually have the auction news right here, Grandpa.
00:33:00See?
00:33:01This bottle was definitely bought by Claire.
00:33:06Elliot, could you not afford a gift or did you just not care?
00:33:11Claire?
00:33:12Yes, I did buy it, but I...
00:33:14Claire bought this because she really cares.
00:33:17My gift is on its way.
00:33:21If you buy something random right now, it will actually make it worse.
00:33:23Just trust me.
00:33:26Seriously, Claire.
00:33:28What kind of boyfriend did you find?
00:33:31Did you just pick him up off the street?
00:33:33Mr. Benson, there's a rather fancy car parked outside and it seems to be blocking the front entrance.
00:33:50There's a rather fancy car parked outside and it seems to be blocking the front entrance.
00:33:54Is that Xander?
00:33:56It's definitely Xander.
00:33:57You must be here to bring presents for your Grandpa.
00:34:01Oh, Xander, I knew it was you.
00:34:03Happy birthday, Mr. Benson.
00:34:15Mr. Benson, this gift for you.
00:34:18Is this the Hulk special watch that's worth millions?
00:34:29I didn't know they made them anymore.
00:34:31Well, I happen to know the CEO very well and got one from his private collection just for you.
00:34:37Oh, look at the colour of that gem.
00:34:43The clarity.
00:34:45You can't buy quality even if you've got a stash of money.
00:34:50Did you really get all these gifts?
00:34:53Yeah.
00:34:53Yeah, I did actually.
00:34:56Do you accept our gifts?
00:34:58I accept these gifts.
00:35:00Thank you very much.
00:35:04Didn't you say he was just an escort?
00:35:06How on earth could he afford anything?
00:35:10Is it possible that Claire has actually found herself a rich boyfriend?
00:35:15Seriously.
00:35:16Seriously, how did you afford these?
00:35:18They're all fake, of course.
00:35:21Had them made up special for a lot of money.
00:35:26Eight thousand?
00:35:2880,000.
00:35:29All this to make you look good.
00:35:32You should probably pay me back later.
00:35:36What's so special about that?
00:35:39Sander will be here soon and he's Mr. Elliot Palmer's nephew.
00:35:44The Palmer family's wealth and status is far superior to some flashy boyfriend.
00:35:48My nephew.
00:35:52If he shows up, won't everyone know who I really am?
00:35:55Hello, everyone.
00:36:02Hello, everyone.
00:36:05You did lovely.
00:36:06Darling.
00:36:07You must be Claire's boyfriend.
00:36:14Good to be.
00:36:15Yeah.
00:36:17I assume haircut wasn't at the top of your checklist.
00:36:20Nice.
00:36:24You really have no idea who I am.
00:36:27Why would I know you?
00:36:31Sander.
00:36:32This is Elliot.
00:36:34He's an entrepreneur that's just come back from abroad.
00:36:41Grandpa's really into this guy.
00:36:43Hurry up and give him your gift.
00:36:45Stop it.
00:36:48This is a vintage 1992 bottle of wine.
00:36:51I had my uncle set it up just for you.
00:36:541992.
00:36:58Never seen one of this nature?
00:37:00Or have you got something better to show me?
00:37:04Well, they say it's the thought that counts, right?
00:37:09I'm happy anyway.
00:37:11Rich family like the Palmers and he can't even get a decent bottle of wine.
00:37:15So I'm such a tight one.
00:37:16I bet Elliot Palmer is worse.
00:37:19Is that fair?
00:37:19Maybe Elliot Palmer has no idea who Sander even is.
00:37:26How could that be?
00:37:26It's his nephew.
00:37:29What's your last name?
00:37:36What's your last name?
00:37:42Never mind.
00:37:43You're just an escort.
00:37:45There's no way you can be linked to the Palmers.
00:37:47Claire.
00:37:47Claire, Kathleen.
00:37:50It's lovely to see you two settle down.
00:37:54It really makes me very happy.
00:37:57I'll take great care of Kathleen.
00:37:59And the family, of course.
00:38:02Claire.
00:38:04Now that Kathleen's pregnant,
00:38:05you two will have to hurry up a bit.
00:38:09All in good time, Grandpa.
00:38:10You did really great today.
00:38:21Go ahead and head back first.
00:38:22I'll catch up later.
00:38:24Just remember to pay me back for the gifts and the car rental.
00:38:28Yeah, sure thing, money waster.
00:38:30Boss, found out what you wanted.
00:38:43That Sander is just the son of the Palmer family's driver.
00:38:46Changed his name a while back to trick people.
00:38:49I'm just curious as to where he came from.
00:38:53Looks like a fake.
00:38:54Should we file charges?
00:38:56I can get the legal team to whip up some papers.
00:38:58No.
00:38:59No, not at the moment.
00:39:01I want them to realize that the higher they climb, the higher they fall.
00:39:04Can you meet me tonight?
00:39:23You have an international meeting already set.
00:39:27Sorry, I can't do tonight.
00:39:30Guess I'll have to find somebody else.
00:39:32I think even booking an escort is a hassle.
00:39:38She's seriously going to find someone else.
00:39:41I'm afraid Miss Benson is set on having a child.
00:39:44You need to put an end to this situation once and for all.
00:39:47I thought the Benson group were keen on working with us.
00:39:55So you're saying that the Palmer group not only wants to discuss the partnership,
00:39:58but Mr Palmer wants to set up a meeting today.
00:40:00Yep, I just heard from his secretary.
00:40:03It's confirmed.
00:40:05Well, cancel the bar reservation then.
00:40:08Get your car ready.
00:40:09We're going into the Palmer group.
00:40:21Come in.
00:40:22Mr Palmer.
00:40:23Mr Palmer.
00:40:29Mr Palmer.
00:40:30I'm Claire.
00:40:32Claire Benson.
00:40:33This is the project proposal we've been meaning to share with you.
00:40:44You are Claire.
00:40:45Is this really Mr Palmer, the CEO?
00:40:49Why is he wearing that mask?
00:40:52Is he hiding something?
00:40:54You have five minutes.
00:40:55Wait, that voice.
00:40:58Sounds so familiar.
00:41:00Miss Benson.
00:41:02Sorry.
00:41:03The proposal tells you everything you need to know.
00:41:06The Benson group has a lot of experience in this area.
00:41:11We can help your company grow in the property sector within two quarters.
00:41:15This is good.
00:41:17The Benson group has really been looking forward to working with...
00:41:20But we have five other companies who are submitting similar proposals.
00:41:26Why should we choose yours?
00:41:28Whatever you need, I can do it.
00:41:30I can make it happen.
00:41:31There is just one thing I'd like from you.
00:41:37Yes, of course.
00:41:39Whatever you need, as long as it's within my power, consider it done.
00:41:43I want you to be my secret lover.
00:41:49I want you to be my secret lover.
00:41:55What?
00:41:55Did you just say?
00:41:56From now on, you are not permitted to see anyone else.
00:42:01Well, didn't you say you would do whatever it takes?
00:42:04But I...
00:42:05Never mind.
00:42:13Miss Palmer.
00:42:15I accept your conditions.
00:42:19Are you certain about this?
00:42:21If this is what it takes to get the deal...
00:42:24All right, fine.
00:42:25Charlie, give me contract.
00:42:27Why does he always put Miss Benson through this?
00:42:30This is a secret deal.
00:42:34Once you sign, you will follow all the rules I make.
00:42:36Whenever I call, you must answer.
00:42:40A partnership with your company will start right away.
00:42:43Are you ready for this?
00:42:51I didn't think Miss Benson would have even less pride than I thought.
00:42:54Why does it pay the bills, does it?
00:42:58Mr. Palmer.
00:43:00What was wrong about you?
00:43:01What are you doing?
00:43:09I just want to reveal the ugly truth behind the mask.
00:43:12The one that you hide from everyone.
00:43:14Black!
00:43:15Why was your head made of metal?
00:43:17Don't let this little bit of power go to your head.
00:43:19There are plenty of people that would love to go on a date with me.
00:43:23You should take a look in the mirror and ask if you even deserve me.
00:43:25Sir, don't let Miss Benson get to you.
00:43:35She's just trying to exploit her.
00:43:37Perceived weakness, that's all.
00:43:44Claire.
00:43:44It was even more fascinating than I thought.
00:43:51Elliot's finally back in town.
00:43:53But I haven't seen him all day.
00:43:56I think Elliot might be in love.
00:44:00What?
00:44:01Last week, out of nowhere, he sent a ton of pricey gifts to Mr. Benson for his birthday.
00:44:07Have you ever seen him go out of his way for anyone like that?
00:44:11But he's got to be interested in the Benson family's daughter.
00:44:18Elliot's already been to meet the head of the family.
00:44:22We must figure out how to meet the Bensons.
00:44:28Josh?
00:44:30Yes, ma'am.
00:44:31What can I do for you?
00:44:32I need you to go over to the Benson family and ask them to dinner.
00:44:36And this is a gift from my daughter-in-law.
00:44:41Please make sure it gets delivered.
00:44:48Are you saying Mrs. Bernice Palmer wants to meet us?
00:44:52Well, with Kathleen pregnant, it's about time both families got together and get together
00:45:01to talk about the wedding.
00:45:06Mrs. Benson's having a baby.
00:45:08I need to rush back and tell the madam.
00:45:10I apologize for the Palmer family's mistake.
00:45:16I hope you can overlook it.
00:45:18The madam thinks a lot of Miss Benson and sends me with a gift now that she knows.
00:45:26May I just ask which of these ladies are...
00:45:29Oh, this is my younger daughter, Kathleen.
00:45:33Right, Miss Kathleen Benson.
00:45:37This is a special gift.
00:45:39From the madam to Miss Kathleen Benson.
00:45:45Wow, it's gorgeous.
00:45:47I love it.
00:45:54The gift has been delivered, madam.
00:45:57The future in-laws and the younger sister looks pretty friendly.
00:46:02But the older sister looks a little bit aloof.
00:46:05Oh.
00:46:09Mum, what is going on?
00:46:15How can you really know someone from a few comments?
00:46:19I need to see for myself.
00:46:22I'm heading out now.
00:46:24Go meet the Bensons on my behalf.
00:46:27The Palmers want to meet our Kathleen.
00:46:37What are you doing here?
00:46:39You just had to tag along.
00:46:41Grandfather wanted me to talk to the Palmers about working with them.
00:46:44You clearly know nothing about business.
00:46:46Claire, you only get to meet Mrs. Palmers because of me.
00:46:49So don't say anything dumb later.
00:46:52Oh, no!
00:46:53Get off me!
00:46:54Get off me!
00:46:55Get off me!
00:46:55You old tag!
00:46:56Please help me.
00:46:57Back off, you old bitch!
00:47:00I don't think you will.
00:47:03Why don't you pay?
00:47:04Claire, we're nearly at the restaurant.
00:47:06You're not seriously going to make us late for dinner with Mrs. Margaret Palmers, this dirty old woman.
00:47:11Young lady, you go on now.
00:47:17I'll be all right.
00:47:18No, we need to get you to a hospital.
00:47:20Claire, are you serious?
00:47:22Come on, forget about her.
00:47:23Let's go.
00:47:27Young lady, you're very kind.
00:47:31If only my granddaughter-in-law was like you.
00:47:34Oh.
00:47:35Well, funny enough, I'm looking for a boyfriend.
00:47:37Jim, you're all right, can you walk?
00:47:43Let me call you a cab.
00:47:44Actually, I just need to sit down.
00:47:46And there's a restaurant just ahead.
00:47:49If you could take me there, I'll get my grandson to pick me up.
00:47:51Of course, of course, I'll take you there.
00:47:59Please pick me up from the greenhouse restaurant.
00:48:06I'll explain.
00:48:07Make sure you wow, Mrs. Palmer.
00:48:19If they support us, you'll be able to call the shots in the Benson group.
00:48:25Relax, I'm not dumb like Claire.
00:48:27Missing an opportunity to meet with Mrs. Margaret Palmer for some messy old lady.
00:48:32I want to see what's wrong with her.
00:48:35Yeah.
00:48:36How could she bring that messy old lady in here?
00:48:41Ow!
00:48:45Ow!
00:48:47What are you doing?
00:48:48I think, why did you bring her here?
00:48:51If Mrs. Palmer sees one of the Benson family with some dirty old beggar, it won't look good for us.
00:48:57Get her out of here.
00:48:59She is not a beggar.
00:49:00She is not a beggar and this is a restaurant. Anyone can come in.
00:49:07Well, well, well, what have we here?
00:49:11Where does the messy old lady get such fancy jewellery? It must be stolen.
00:49:20This will be evidence.
00:49:21This will be evidence.
00:49:22I'll call the police.
00:49:23Give it back.
00:49:24My grandson gave back to me.
00:49:25Kathleen, give it back to her.
00:49:27Let's not waste any more time.
00:49:29Waiter.
00:49:30Get this thief out of here.
00:49:32Get your filthy hands off me.
00:49:33Stop it.
00:49:34Grandma, you okay?
00:49:35Now you can see who's been insulting your grandmother.
00:49:37Grandmother?
00:49:38Grandmother?
00:49:39So the grandson that old lady was searching for was him?
00:49:40Oh.
00:49:45It's you.
00:50:00I thought you were just a lowly escort.
00:50:03It's you.
00:50:06I thought you were just a lowly escort,
00:50:07but I gave you too much credit.
00:50:10Someone like you doesn't belong in the Benson family.
00:50:13Having a con artist like you in the family
00:50:17is a disgrace to our name.
00:50:20Enough!
00:50:22It's clear that you're the one
00:50:25who doesn't belong in the Palmer family.
00:50:27Mrs. Palmer.
00:50:29Mrs. Margaret Palmer.
00:50:31Oh, well, we, I'm really sorry.
00:50:35We appear to have had a terrible mix-up.
00:50:38My eldest daughter brought the wrong people in
00:50:41and, well, I'll have them leave immediately.
00:50:44You two are the ones who should go.
00:50:48This is the Palmer family's restaurant
00:50:51and you're not welcome here.
00:50:52Mrs. Palmer, are you sure you're not confused?
00:51:01Mrs. Palmer.
00:51:04Mrs. Palmer.
00:51:07Get out now!
00:51:12Get out now!
00:51:26Oh, Elliot. I need to be clear today. I really don't like that Kathleen that you're hanging about with.
00:51:38Exactly. With her attitude, even if she had a Palmer baby, I wouldn't let her into the family.
00:51:44Kathleen!
00:51:47You two definitely have the wrong idea. Kathleen isn't my girlfriend, and her kid has nothing to do with me.
00:51:55Oh, I'm so glad to hear that. She and her mum don't seem like nice people. Claire. Claire seems familiar.
00:52:10Wait a minute. She's the plumber.
00:52:15I think Claire is sweet.
00:52:18Claire, she's even more of a hassle.
00:52:20You seem to know her pretty well. Is there something between you two?
00:52:27Yeah, let's not talk about that now. Oh, Kathleen's fiancée, Zander, has been pretending to be part of the Palmer family.
00:52:37Oh, Mrs. Palmer really hates me now. What am I going to do?
00:52:49Darling, it's fine. As long as Zander cares about you, that's all that matters.
00:52:55He'll say nice things to Mrs. Palmer, and she'll forgive us.
00:52:59That's the only way.
00:53:02It's all Claire's fault. She's trying to sabotage my marriage to the Palmer family on purpose.
00:53:09Don't worry, darling.
00:53:13I'll make sure she pays for this.
00:53:15It's all here. No need to worry.
00:53:27Every year on the anniversary of your mum's passing, you come to the flower field she planted.
00:53:33You pay your respects. You take care of the garden, and you plant your flowers.
00:53:39I won't forget.
00:53:45This is the Benson family's property. Who told you you could just tear it apart?
00:54:00Uh, uh, it was Mrs. Amy Benson's orders.
00:54:05Amy.
00:54:11Who told you you could touch my mum's garden?
00:54:13Uh, well, Kathleen's been having pregnancy cravings, and she wanted oranges.
00:54:21I thought that spot there would be the best place to grow them there for her.
00:54:24That's my mum's space.
00:54:26And?
00:54:29She's got them.
00:54:32And those flowers are just sitting there.
00:54:34No one to enjoy them.
00:54:35What a waste.
00:54:37It's better to tear them away and grow orange trees for everyone.
00:54:40Yeah, sis. Home-grain oranges just tastes way better.
00:54:47You're a home-wrecker.
00:54:49Who told you you could touch any of the Benson family's stuff?
00:54:52Fix the garden now!
00:54:53That's enough.
00:54:55Let go of her.
00:54:58Amy's your mother, too.
00:55:00So, show a little respect for your elders.
00:55:03Grandma, she destroyed...
00:55:04Oh, no.
00:55:06I said it was fine.
00:55:09It's just a garden.
00:55:12It's our land.
00:55:14Don't interrupt.
00:55:21Kathleen is soon to become a palmer,
00:55:24and Grandpa really cares about that.
00:55:26And when Kathleen marries Xander
00:55:30and has her kid to inherit the Benson estate,
00:55:34you won't be part of this family anymore.
00:55:37Why the sudden invites?
00:55:53Did you miss me?
00:55:56Hey.
00:55:57Hey, what's wrong?
00:55:59Don't ask.
00:56:00Dad.
00:56:06Just let me stay close.
00:56:08Okay.
00:56:09You don't need to say anything.
00:56:15Huh.
00:56:16Looks like the power's gone.
00:56:22I'll check it out, okay?
00:56:23No, please don't leave.
00:56:25Okay.
00:56:26I'll stick around.
00:56:30I'll check it out, okay?
00:56:32I'll check it out, okay?
00:56:32I'll check it out, okay?
00:56:49So, you're scared of the dark.
00:56:55My mum died when I was little.
00:56:57And my dad married my step-mom, Amy.
00:57:03And one day when dad was away,
00:57:06she locked me in a tiny, dark closet for two whole days.
00:57:13Sorry, Grandpa.
00:57:14Didn't he take care of you?
00:57:16When mum died, no one really looked after me.
00:57:18But eventually, I did learn how to protect myself.
00:57:28I had to get strong so no one could push me around.
00:57:32Well, from now on, I'll protect you.
00:57:34You.
00:57:34You don't trust me.
00:57:40I believe anything you say.
00:57:45How am I supposed to take an escort's promise seriously?
00:57:49Why is there a crowd here?
00:58:00All their friends and relatives from my side of the family
00:58:03were here to go over the plans for Kathleen and Xander's wedding.
00:58:08A wedding?
00:58:08Oh, you haven't been told yet.
00:58:13Mrs. Palmer's coming round soon to discuss the marriage.
00:58:22Claire, be sure to smile.
00:58:24Be polite.
00:58:26Don't say anything bad in front of Mrs. Palmer.
00:58:30Mrs. Palmer's coming round.
00:58:32Mrs. Palmer's coming round.
00:58:37Yes, Xander.
00:58:38You spoke to Mrs. Palmer.
00:58:40She forgave us and, well, she's offered to come over
00:58:43and talk about the wedding.
00:58:45She did mention to that to you, right?
00:58:48Yeah.
00:58:48Yeah, of course.
00:58:49What the hell?
00:58:51When did I ever see anything nice?
00:58:53This doesn't matter.
00:58:54Mrs. Palmer must really care about Xander.
00:58:56I mean, she's made time with her busy schedule
00:58:58to come here in person and discuss the wedding with us.
00:59:00It's wonderful.
00:59:01The Palmers are super exclusive.
00:59:04I mean, I'm so lucky to know Kathleen
00:59:06and to be able to meet Mrs. Palmer in person.
00:59:09When Xander and I are married,
00:59:11I'll make sure that you go round to the Palmer residence all the time.
00:59:16Oh, Kathleen, I've just remembered it's something I've left unfinished in the office.
00:59:20I must go right away.
00:59:23Xander?
00:59:25You must make time for your own wedding.
00:59:29Yeah, of course.
00:59:31On that note, actually, I have a small favour to ask you.
00:59:35Um, my sister would really love an internship at, um, Palmer Corp.
00:59:40Well, I'm sure there's something that Xander could do.
00:59:54Thank you so much, Kathleen.
00:59:57Yes, well, funny, actually.
00:59:58I've also got a little favour I'd love to discuss, and we, uh...
01:00:02Mrs. Palmer has arrived.
01:00:08Mrs. Palmer, you made it.
01:00:10That's him!
01:00:14That's him!
01:00:14Grab him!
01:00:18That's him!
01:00:19Grab him!
01:00:24Mrs. Palmer, what's going on?
01:00:27What...
01:00:28What's the meaning of this?
01:00:30Xander is your grandnephew.
01:00:33Grandnephew?
01:00:33I'd really love to know when we got a relative like that.
01:00:37What?
01:00:40That's crazy.
01:00:42Are you saying he's not a Palmer?
01:00:47If he's not a Palmer, then who is he?
01:00:52Xander is the son of the Palmer family's driver.
01:00:56No.
01:00:57No.
01:00:58No.
01:00:59Oh, no.
01:01:00No way.
01:01:02Sorry, you're being arrested for fraud and information.
01:01:04Come with us, please.
01:01:05Madam, I can explain.
01:01:06This is a misunderstanding.
01:01:07Kathleen, honey, do something!
01:01:08I don't even know who you are!
01:01:09Kathleen!
01:01:10Kathleen!
01:01:11Kathleen!
01:01:12Kathleen!
01:01:13Kathleen!
01:01:14Kathleen!
01:01:15Kathleen!
01:01:16Our Kathleen would never be involved with a scammer!
01:01:19Listen, we thought you'd married into wealth, but clearly you were the fraud, and
01:01:22I'm taking my jewelry back.
01:01:23Yeah, me too.
01:01:24No, no, no.
01:01:27We thought you'd married into wealth, but clearly you were the fraud, and I'm taking my jewellery back.
01:01:32Yeah, me too.
01:01:47Sorry, family has to stay out here.
01:01:54What, can you not even have a little hospital smell?
01:01:57My period's late. Could it be?
01:02:03Congratulations, Claire. By the looks of this, you're about four weeks pregnant.
01:02:08I'm having a baby.
01:02:10Yes.
01:02:12Should I let him know?
01:02:16It's just a spam donation. Don't make it a big deal.
01:02:22Kathleen, your grandpa is still in ER.
01:02:25Where did you leave?
01:02:28I was just in a bit of pain, so I just went for a check-up.
01:02:32What's wrong? Are you okay?
01:02:34This is our only shot at keeping the fans' legacy.
01:02:37Yeah, I'm okay, yeah. Don't worry too much.
01:02:39How did you get out?
01:02:51My dad took out a loan and bailed me out.
01:02:53If I don't pay back it in a month, I'm looking for four charges.
01:02:56What's that got to do with me?
01:02:58Well, you spent the money as well. I don't act like you're not involved, Kathleen.
01:03:01What do you really want, son?
01:03:04I need money.
01:03:06Three millions of dollars.
01:03:08Well, that's not happening.
01:03:12Now that I tell someone, I don't see.
01:03:14Speak one.
01:03:15Take this for now.
01:03:22But if you tell anyone anything, you won't regret it.
01:03:26The patient had a heart attack.
01:03:46His emotions are all over the place.
01:03:48As family, you have to keep him calm and avoid stressing him out.
01:03:53This is all Zonda's fault.
01:04:01Grandpa, are you all right?
01:04:03I'm okay.
01:04:05I thought if Kathleen married a palmer, they'd work with us.
01:04:11Everything would be, you know, okay.
01:04:14But now, it's nothing but doom.
01:04:18Tom, even if Kathleen didn't marry a palmer,
01:04:21we've still got other projects to focus on.
01:04:24Well, the company is not doing very well financially.
01:04:29We're running out of funds.
01:04:31How can that be?
01:04:33When the Benson Group is huge.
01:04:35How can it just fall apart?
01:04:37The company has been in trouble for quite a while.
01:04:40And I thought if we hurried it up and teamed with the farmers,
01:04:46that everything would be okay.
01:04:50Get out of this mess.
01:04:55Elliot has money.
01:04:57Maybe he could help us.
01:05:00Grandpa, I'm so sorry.
01:05:06I wasn't completely honest.
01:05:09Elliot doesn't have money.
01:05:11What?
01:05:13Ah, you're a liar.
01:05:15I always knew he came for a poor background.
01:05:19Enough of this arguing.
01:05:22Another scenario.
01:05:23If we're marrying to the Jenkins family...
01:05:30I heard that Liam Jenkins is a player
01:05:34and has a bunch of girlfriends.
01:05:37I don't want to marry someone like that.
01:05:40Well, okay.
01:05:41You don't have to marry him if you don't want to.
01:05:44Let Claire marry him.
01:05:45All right, fine.
01:05:54Grandpa, I will marry him.
01:05:59I will marry him.
01:06:01The Benson Group is my mom's legacy.
01:06:03Can't let our efforts go to waste,
01:06:05no matter what it takes.
01:06:07You really are, Elliot.
01:06:11Well,
01:06:12you're doing a great thing for the family.
01:06:16Oh,
01:06:17it's tough on you.
01:06:33Why do you look so serious?
01:06:37Is there something on your mind?
01:06:38Check out this confidentiality agreement.
01:06:45Confidentiality agreement?
01:06:46Just some things to remember
01:06:48after we break up.
01:06:53You want to break up?
01:06:54Don't worry.
01:06:54I'll make sure that you're well taken care of.
01:06:57Do you think I care about that?
01:06:58Don't forget the deal.
01:07:00I'm the one backing you up.
01:07:02Well, at least tell me why.
01:07:03It's not a reason.
01:07:04I've always been the one
01:07:08running this relationship.
01:07:09I can end it whenever I feel like it.
01:07:14I thought we had something real.
01:07:20It's a little bit of a novel.
01:07:21So, you're Claire.
01:07:42Hi.
01:07:42I didn't expect you to be so good looking.
01:07:44Perhaps this arranged marriage thing
01:07:46won't work out so bad after all.
01:07:48Aren't we here to discuss business?
01:07:49Please, I doubt you're interested in you for that.
01:07:52Let's focus on us.
01:07:54Sure.
01:07:55Go on.
01:07:56Well, firstly, you should know
01:07:57that this marriage is an agreement
01:07:59between our families.
01:08:00Don't expect me to fall for you.
01:08:02Not a concern.
01:08:04Secondly, once we are married,
01:08:06we agree to keep out of each other's business.
01:08:09It's fine by me.
01:08:10I won't interfere with your life.
01:08:13There's something you should know, Mr Jenkins.
01:08:16Go ahead.
01:08:16I'm pregnant.
01:08:23Relax.
01:08:24The father's not in the picture.
01:08:26And I'm guessing with all the kids
01:08:28you have running around,
01:08:29you wouldn't mind having another with me,
01:08:30would you?
01:08:32Miss Benson,
01:08:33you are as bald as the gossip says.
01:08:36Perhaps we will have some fun together down the line.
01:08:38Oh, I can never keep up with your wild sign, Mr Jenkins.
01:08:41Let's just stick to our separate lives, hm?
01:08:50So that's why you're leaving me?
01:08:51Boss,
01:08:59the engagement parties for the Jenkins and Benson families
01:09:02are scheduled for next week.
01:09:04Also, I've checked the hospital records.
01:09:07Miss Benson is four weeks pregnant.
01:09:09She's crying my baby.
01:09:15I need to marry someone else.
01:09:16Mr Jenkins and Miss Benson,
01:09:32you two are perfect together.
01:09:34Here's to you both.
01:09:35Thank you, Miss Reyes.
01:09:38Miss Flores.
01:09:40This is another one of your business contacts.
01:09:43She is.
01:09:44And more than just business.
01:09:46You really know how to take advantage
01:09:48of every opportunity.
01:09:51I've also invited Mr Palmer.
01:09:53You know him, right?
01:09:55Elliot Palmer.
01:09:56Yes, he's a pervert.
01:09:57How can you say that?
01:09:59If he actually turns up,
01:10:00it won't just be an honour,
01:10:01it would make working with other companies a breeze.
01:10:07Don't get your hopes up.
01:10:09Elliot's the richest guy around.
01:10:10He doesn't show up to us any party.
01:10:12Kathleen, remind me.
01:10:14Who was it that upset Mrs Palmer
01:10:16and got thrown out of her restaurant?
01:10:18Oh, also pretended to be part of the family.
01:10:21If Elliot doesn't show up,
01:10:22it's because you upset Mrs Palmer.
01:10:25So what?
01:10:26Let me tell you something.
01:10:28If you think Elliot's showing up to this party,
01:10:30you're dreaming.
01:10:32Why don't you take a look at yourself
01:10:33and see if you're even worth it?
01:10:40Mr Jenkins, Ms Penson,
01:10:42Mr Palmer is here.
01:10:43Mr Palmer, I didn't expect to see you.
01:11:09Elliot, is he the Palmer, Elliot?
01:11:16Don't be frozen, dear.
01:11:17Say hello to Mr Palmer.
01:11:20Mr Palmer, hello.
01:11:22Mrs Benson.
01:11:24I was surprised here about your engagement.
01:11:26I had to see it for myself.
01:11:30Wait, so Mr Palmer, Claire,
01:11:31you two know each other?
01:11:33Well, that is great.
01:11:35Honey, what are you doing?
01:11:36Honey, you're ready.
01:11:40We've run into each other a couple of times
01:11:42for business.
01:11:44I wouldn't say we're close.
01:11:48Well, it is an honour to have you here, Mr Palmer.
01:11:50It really does mean a lot.
01:11:51Is the Palmer Group involved
01:11:54with the Jenkins family business?
01:11:56Yes.
01:11:57What a fantastic memory you have, Mr Palmer.
01:11:59Yes, that's a project we started working on
01:12:01eight months ago.
01:12:03And I'm managing that one personally.
01:12:05Okay, good.
01:12:08Well, how about we end that partnership here?
01:12:12Excuse me?
01:12:13What did you say?
01:12:14The Palmer Group is cutting ties
01:12:16with the Jenkins family immediately.
01:12:18No future deals.
01:12:19Can you at least tell me why?
01:12:21What did I do wrong?
01:12:22I can fix this.
01:12:23Wrong.
01:12:24Well, you should probably talk
01:12:26to your fiancé about that.
01:12:30What have you done to upset Mr Palmer?
01:12:32Apologise at once.
01:12:35I misunderstood the situation.
01:12:38I see that now.
01:12:38Please don't hold it against me.
01:12:41Don't hold it against you.
01:12:43Why didn't you think this
01:12:45sorry excuse for an apology
01:12:47will fix this?
01:12:47Claire's not one for words.
01:12:49Don't take it personally, Mr Palmer.
01:12:51If there's anything that we can do
01:12:53to set it right,
01:12:53just let us know.
01:12:54We'll do our best to fix this.
01:12:57Okay.
01:12:58Fine.
01:12:58If you're truly sorry,
01:13:08we'll drink these.
01:13:10Then maybe
01:13:11I'll consider forgiving you.
01:13:14Just do as Mr Palmer says.
01:13:18I'm pregnant.
01:13:20I can't drink.
01:13:21So what?
01:13:22You want to stop the Benson Group
01:13:24from going under?
01:13:24I need you to cooperate.
01:13:30Mr Palmer,
01:13:31I raise my glass to you.
01:13:39You risked your baby's life
01:13:40for this clown.
01:13:42How did you know?
01:13:44I wish I had known sooner.
01:13:45What is going on here?
01:13:47What's happening between the two?
01:13:48No, nothing is going on.
01:13:49Then whose baby is it?
01:13:59Fine.
01:14:00If you won't say it,
01:14:01I will.
01:14:03Liam,
01:14:04your future wife
01:14:06is the mother of my child.
01:14:07Wow,
01:14:12can you believe it?
01:14:13The Benson's daughter
01:14:13is pregnant with Mr Palmer's baby
01:14:15and is about to marry him
01:14:17to the Jenkins family.
01:14:18This is such a disaster.
01:14:20Is Mr Palmer here
01:14:21to stop the wedding?
01:14:22What is the Benson family thinking?
01:14:25Anyone with any sense
01:14:26would pick the Palmers
01:14:27over the Jenkins.
01:14:28Jenkins.
01:14:28Jenkins.
01:14:28Jenkins.
01:14:28Jenkins.
01:14:29Jenkins.
01:14:29Jenkins.
01:14:29Jenkins.
01:14:30Jenkins.
01:14:30Jenkins.
01:14:30Jenkins.
01:14:31Jenkins.
01:14:31Jenkins.
01:14:32Jenkins.
01:14:32Jenkins.
01:14:33What do you really want?
01:14:47Is it fun for you
01:14:48to mess with me like...
01:14:49Messing with you?
01:14:51You're for one messing with me.
01:14:54Can't I just say I was wrong
01:14:55and go?
01:14:56I mean,
01:14:56give me a break,
01:14:57just let me leave.
01:14:58Let you leave?
01:14:58Sorry.
01:14:59Do you really think
01:15:00Liam will still marry you
01:15:01if you go back now?
01:15:01If you end up marrying Liam,
01:15:03do you think I'll just
01:15:04back off from the Jenkins
01:15:05and Benson families?
01:15:07I'm doing what I must.
01:15:09Don't interfere.
01:15:10You want marrying Liam
01:15:11because you want to rescue the...
01:15:12Yes, sir.
01:15:12What if I am?
01:15:13Well, if it's about
01:15:14saving the Benson group,
01:15:15I can help with that.
01:15:17What do you mean by that?
01:15:19Claire,
01:15:21I can help
01:15:22rescue the Benson group
01:15:23from this mess,
01:15:24but you need to...
01:15:26Dump Liam and marry me.
01:15:31Marry you?
01:15:34If you can't say
01:15:35Benson group with Liam anymore,
01:15:37if you marry me,
01:15:39I can help you
01:15:40get through this whole mess.
01:15:45Late,
01:15:46I want your help,
01:15:47but you haven't yet
01:15:48to show me your true cause.
01:15:50You just keep
01:15:51leading me on
01:15:52and now you want to marry me.
01:15:54What, am I supposed to just jump
01:15:56at whatever you say?
01:15:57No, that's not what I meant.
01:16:00But this child
01:16:01should have a father too.
01:16:03Let me tell you,
01:16:04I don't care
01:16:05who the dad is.
01:16:06I never wanted a father
01:16:07from the start.
01:16:08This is just a big
01:16:08misunderstanding
01:16:09and you know
01:16:10why I was choosing
01:16:11a guy for help.
01:16:13Don't flatter yourself.
01:16:20So everything we had
01:16:22meant nothing to you?
01:16:22Fine.
01:16:31Whatever.
01:16:36Why can't I just say
01:16:38what I feel?
01:16:39Why do I always
01:16:40end up fighting with him?
01:16:41Mrs. Palmer.
01:16:54Well,
01:16:55I know everything
01:16:57about you and Elliot.
01:16:58From the moment
01:16:59I first set eyes on you,
01:17:01I've been wishing
01:17:02that you and Elliot
01:17:03would be together.
01:17:05He and I...
01:17:07Oh.
01:17:09Did you two
01:17:09have an argument?
01:17:10Oh.
01:17:13If you're feeling upset,
01:17:15just tell me
01:17:16and I'll take care of it.
01:17:19I said some
01:17:20really horrible things.
01:17:22Oh.
01:17:23We all have our moments.
01:17:25Don't stress about it.
01:17:35It's not a big deal.
01:17:37Just go inside
01:17:37and apologize.
01:17:38Yes.
01:17:40The person is here now.
01:17:43Whatever needs to be said
01:17:44has been said.
01:17:45Only she was in trouble
01:17:46straight away.
01:17:47She thinks
01:17:48just because she's pregnant
01:17:49she can behave
01:17:50however she wants.
01:17:52Pregnant?
01:17:53Are they talking
01:17:53about me?
01:17:55Is this what you think
01:17:56of me, Elliot?
01:17:57I was just trying
01:17:58to apologize.
01:17:58What do you think
01:18:04our next move should be?
01:18:05I think we should keep
01:18:06her in the wraps
01:18:06for now
01:18:07and just tell Claire
01:18:08about it.
01:18:09You won't say it,
01:18:11but I know inside
01:18:12you're still cheering
01:18:13for Claire.
01:18:15We could cheer for her.
01:18:20Grandfather,
01:18:20I'm sorry for ruining
01:18:24the engagement party.
01:18:25There's no need
01:18:26to be sorry.
01:18:28I just want you
01:18:29to be happy
01:18:30and marry someone
01:18:32you truly love.
01:18:35Claire,
01:18:36you've been messing
01:18:37with us the whole time.
01:18:38Mr. Palmer
01:18:39can totally save
01:18:40the Benson Group.
01:18:41You didn't need
01:18:42Liam for that.
01:18:43I...
01:18:44Elliot is already
01:18:46putting money
01:18:47into the Benson Group.
01:18:49Well, when did that happen?
01:18:50He didn't tell me that.
01:18:51And he's also
01:18:52going to have a look
01:18:53at our financial details.
01:18:59Kathy?
01:19:00Are you okay?
01:19:06I'm okay.
01:19:08Now you two
01:19:09are pregnant.
01:19:10I'm really looking
01:19:11forward to seeing
01:19:12my grandchildren.
01:19:14I'm really looking forward
01:19:14to seeing my grandchildren.
01:19:21Claire,
01:19:26I know that
01:19:28we've had
01:19:29our misunderstandings,
01:19:31but
01:19:31I just really
01:19:33want to say today
01:19:34in front of Grandpa
01:19:35that
01:19:36I really am sorry.
01:19:41There you are, Claire.
01:19:43You two
01:19:43should be watching
01:19:45each other's backs.
01:19:48What did she do?
01:19:49There's something
01:19:52I need to show you.
01:19:55There you are, Claire.
01:19:56Go have a look.
01:20:08Just tell me
01:20:09what you want
01:20:10to show me.
01:20:11What I need
01:20:12to show you is...
01:20:13Now it's your turn
01:20:23to pay.
01:20:29Grandma,
01:20:30where's Claire?
01:20:31Claire had something
01:20:32to do.
01:20:33Went home.
01:20:35I'm going to look for her.
01:20:39Elliot still cares
01:20:40about Claire.
01:20:42Catelyn,
01:20:43what kind of crazy
01:20:44is this?
01:20:45It's all
01:20:46your fault, Claire.
01:20:48I was supposed
01:20:49to inherit
01:20:50the Benson family business
01:20:52and I was meant
01:20:53to marry
01:20:54you to the Palmer family.
01:20:56You fucked up
01:20:57my whole life!
01:20:58Catelyn,
01:20:59you brought that
01:20:59on yourself.
01:21:00How is any
01:21:00of this my fault?
01:21:02If you hadn't
01:21:02gotten in the way.
01:21:06Catelyn,
01:21:07let me out of here.
01:21:07You can't just
01:21:08keep me in here.
01:21:09What's the rush?
01:21:12We're just
01:21:12getting started.
01:21:22Who'd have thought
01:21:23that the great
01:21:24Miss Benson
01:21:25would be scared
01:21:26of the doll?
01:21:27I'd love to see
01:21:28your face right now.
01:21:29He's shaking
01:21:30in fear.
01:21:33Catelyn,
01:21:34don't take this
01:21:35too far.
01:21:36If Grandpa
01:21:37finds out,
01:21:37then I'll just
01:21:38make sure
01:21:39that he doesn't
01:21:39find out.
01:21:41Aren't you
01:21:42the one
01:21:42who's always
01:21:43so amazing?
01:21:44Don't you
01:21:44just love
01:21:45to be
01:21:46the center
01:21:46of attention?
01:21:48The people
01:21:48know that
01:21:49you can be
01:21:49this pathetic.
01:21:50and from now
01:21:55on,
01:21:55I'll protect you.
01:22:02Elliot,
01:22:02where are you?
01:22:04Where are you?
01:22:07Elliot?
01:22:07Elliot?
01:22:10Stop dreaming.
01:22:12He's coming to
01:22:13rescue you.
01:22:14Just give me
01:22:16the family
01:22:17inheritance
01:22:18and I'll think
01:22:19about knowing
01:22:19who you are.
01:22:29What is wrong
01:22:30with you?
01:22:32Claire,

01:22:34Kathleen,
01:22:41if anything's
01:22:42happened to
01:22:42Claire or the
01:22:43baby,
01:22:43you'll regret it
01:22:43for the rest
01:22:44of your life.
01:22:54Oh,
01:22:54my baby!
01:22:55Oh,
01:22:56my baby!
01:22:57Ah!

01:23:03I used to make
01:23:05up with my
01:23:06sister and she
01:23:08said that she's
01:23:09the only one
01:23:10that deserves
01:23:11the inheritance
01:23:12and then she
01:23:12knocked me down.
01:23:14Claire,
01:23:14how could you
01:23:16be so cruel?
01:23:17What if something
01:23:17happened to your
01:23:18sister and the
01:23:18baby?
01:23:19No,
01:23:19no,
01:23:20it wasn't my
01:23:21fault,
01:23:21it was her
01:23:21fault.

01:23:30she can have
01:23:30my share
01:23:31just as long
01:23:32as she lets me
01:23:32see my baby

01:23:45What is it you
01:23:50find so amusing,
01:23:51Mr. Palmer?
01:23:53I'm just
01:23:54admiring
01:23:54Kathleen's
01:23:55little performance.
01:23:56How can you
01:23:57lose a baby
01:23:57when you're not
01:23:58even pregnant?
01:24:04What do you
01:24:04mean she's
01:24:05not pregnant?
01:24:06I'll give you
01:24:07proof.

01:24:27baby?
01:24:28Kathleen can't
01:24:28even have
01:24:28kids.
01:24:29The whole
01:24:29pregnancy thing
01:24:30was just a
01:24:31bloody trick
01:24:31to grab
01:24:32control of
01:24:32the Benson
01:24:33group.

01:24:41even have
01:24:41babies.
01:24:42And she knows
01:24:42exactly what's
