00:00:00I got this. I belong here.
00:00:13How's everything? You got a plan?
00:00:15I'm in. Now, I'll find Henry Vaughn and stop him.
00:00:18He's not getting his hands on our orphanage, our home.
00:00:24Now, what does he look like?
00:00:27Mr. Vaughn, it's such a pleasure.
00:00:30I'll be back shortly.
00:00:36I can't believe we're talking to Henry Vaughn. His first public appearance.
00:00:42No one has ever seen him before this. It screams headlines.
00:00:46We need something big.
00:00:53No sign of Henry Vaughn. Where is he?
00:00:56No sign of Henry Vaughn.
00:01:00Vaughn, what's happening?
00:01:02I'll probably use a glitch. You okay?
00:01:04My hair is stuck to your shirt. Can you please help?
00:01:07Close now.
00:01:08Ow! Stop yanking!
00:01:10I'm not yanking. Be patient.
00:01:11Oh, please. Not so rough.
00:01:14Please, just be slow. Come on. Come on, closer.
00:01:16Uh, hey. You may want to hear this.
00:01:22You're so slow. Come on. Be patient.
00:01:24Oh, just take off your shirt.
00:01:26Oh, we're gonna lie.
00:01:27No!
00:01:30Oh, just take off your shirt.
00:01:31Oh, no. In an elevator, that's not happening.
00:01:33Oh, well, I'll just do it.
00:01:37I'm so sorry.
00:01:38I can't keep going.
00:01:40Come on, Mr. Vaughn.
00:01:41Mr Vaughn! Mr Vaughn?
00:01:43Mr Vaughn.
00:01:44Mr Vaughn, Mr Vaughn.
00:01:45Is this some sort of ginky elevator play?
00:01:46Is that how you can get off your nerves for the airmen?
00:01:48How long have you been?
00:01:49Mr Vaughn, Mr Vaughn?
00:01:51Oh, come on.
00:01:53Mr Vaughn's.
00:01:54Mr Vaughn...
00:01:55Did you even see him?
00:01:57No, the things got complicated.
00:02:01Oh. Boss.
00:02:02I'll get to work right away.
00:02:03Oh, no, Miss Garland.
00:02:04Don't work so hard.
00:02:06You've been nonstop.
00:02:07You deserve a break.
00:02:09Am I getting fired?
00:02:11What?
00:02:12No.
00:02:13You don't need to keep hiding it anymore.
00:02:16You're Henry Vaughn's girlfriend, aren't you?
00:02:18What?
00:02:19See?
00:02:20That's all over the news.
00:02:24That's all over the news.
00:02:26Okay, that's a misunderstanding.
00:02:27Oh, come on.
00:02:28This photo.
00:02:30It's clearly you.
00:02:31It's totally her.
00:02:32It's totally her.
00:02:32Yes.
00:02:34It is me.
00:02:34I knew it.
00:02:36Only our Lila could lend someone like Vaughn.
00:02:39Guys, it's her.
00:02:42Hey, maybe it's for the best.
00:02:45How so?
00:02:46We'll have leverage to negotiate with Henry Vaughn.
00:02:49He literally just said no to my face.
00:02:51He's just an arrogant shithead.
00:02:53Okay, then at least we can use it to our advantage
00:02:56and raise money for Starlight.
00:02:58What?
00:02:59Do you really think people will treat us differently?
00:03:01No.
00:03:02There is no way anyone would do that.
00:03:04Oh, I'll handle your assignments.
00:03:07Anything.
00:03:08For Mr. Vaughn's girlfriend.
00:03:09I'll get you coffee from now on.
00:03:11You can have half my project bonus.
00:03:14Lila?
00:03:14I'm promoting you to department manager.
00:03:17Effective.
00:03:17Immediately.
00:03:18I'm going to be like...
00:03:18Wow.
00:03:19Yes, she did.
00:03:21I guess I'm his girlfriend.
00:03:28We'll launch an exclusive right away.
00:03:3110 things you need to know about Henry Vaughn's sweetheart, Lila Collins.
00:03:36Wait, right now?
00:03:37No, Linder.
00:03:38Hold on.
00:03:38No.
00:03:38Get the car ready.
00:03:41I'm going to settle this girlfriend nonsense.
00:03:48If I get the job, will it get to meet Henry Vaughn?
00:03:51Oh my god.
00:03:52Oh my god.
00:03:53He's such a dream.
00:03:55Next.
00:03:58Uh...
00:03:59What is this supposed to be?
00:04:01I think I'm way hotter than your boyfriend.
00:04:05Next.
00:04:09Next!
00:04:09Can you introduce yourself?
00:04:15How about you introduce yourself?
00:04:17You know, I don't really dig the whole, like, single-sided interview thing.
00:04:22I think it's toxic.
00:04:23Great.
00:04:25Next!
00:04:28Miss Collins?
00:04:30You remember me?
00:04:32Uh...
00:04:33Your voice sounds familiar?
00:04:35Yes, I think I've heard it somewhere before.
00:04:37Wait.
00:04:38I do know you.
00:04:42I do know you.
00:04:43Yeah.
00:04:44You look just like Robert Pattinson.
00:04:49Should I remind you what happened in the elevator a few days ago?
00:04:52Oh.
00:04:53You're one of those people obsessed with my relationship with Henry Vaughn.
00:04:57Fine.
00:04:58Fine.
00:04:59I'll give you what you came here for.
00:05:02Yes.
00:05:03Henry Vaughn is my boyfriend.
00:05:06In the elevator, he said he loved me.
00:05:08But guess what?
00:05:09I turned him down.
00:05:09He did?
00:05:10Yeah.
00:05:11Of course.
00:05:12He begged me to accept his love, saying he'd skip the press conference if I didn't.
00:05:17Wow.
00:05:17Really?
00:05:18Absolutely.
00:05:19You know, men, they're such simple creatures.
00:05:22I gave him one kiss.
00:05:23And then he completely lost it.
00:05:25He wanted to sleep with me.
00:05:26And then, well, I said, no, of course.
00:05:29And he was so heartbroken.
00:05:30He canceled the whole event.
00:05:33Can you imagine?
00:05:35I truly can.
00:05:36I mean, it's outrageous.
00:05:38Really.
00:05:38Oh, by the way, what's your name?
00:05:39I'm Henry.
00:05:40Oh, it doesn't matter.
00:05:41Forget it.
00:05:42You are hired.
00:05:44No, I don't want the job.
00:05:46I don't need...
00:05:48Mrs. Green's condition is getting worse.
00:05:55Mrs. Green's condition is getting worse.
00:05:59Yes, I'm on my way.
00:06:03Hey, newbie.
00:06:04You're coming with me.
00:06:09Your son is turning this family into a laughingstock.
00:06:12The deal was clear.
00:06:15Build the biggest shopping mall in the world, and then I'll make him air.
00:06:18Now, look, the project's been delayed, and he's been seen cozying up with the enemy, some activist.
00:06:23It must be some misunderstanding.
00:06:26He's never let you down.
00:06:28Fix this, or I'll replace him, and you'll be out after him.
00:06:34Control your son.
00:06:38He's your son, too, you know.
00:06:39And I regret that every day.
00:06:52David?
00:06:52David?
00:06:54I need to know everything about Lila Collins.
00:07:03She's not recognized anymore since yesterday.
00:07:09Mrs. Green, do you know who I am?
00:07:14Mom?
00:07:17It's okay.
00:07:20It's okay.
00:07:23You're not my mom.
00:07:25No.
00:07:27But to me, you're just like a mother.
00:07:31And I'll save our home.
00:07:33Hey, newbie.
00:07:41Thanks for today.
00:07:42Just give me a sec, I'll go solve the payment.
00:07:46So heartbreaking.
00:07:47Did you hear about Starlight Homes?
00:07:49Of course.
00:07:49It's getting demolished next month.
00:07:52Poor Lila.
00:07:52What's she going to do?
00:07:53Right?
00:07:54Mrs. Green only shows brief moments of clarity when she visits that place.
00:07:57Once it's gone, she might never remember anything again.
00:08:01Such a shame.
00:08:02She's been taking care of Mrs. Green for ten years.
00:08:05And just like that, it's all disappearing.
00:08:07And for what?
00:08:08Just another massive shopping mall, just wiping it out like that.
00:08:11And this one, who's that for?
00:08:31This is for Sherry.
00:08:33She loves lavender.
00:08:36This one?
00:08:37What about this one?
00:08:38Lily.
00:08:39Of course.
00:08:40She just loves yellow.
00:09:03I'll see you next time.
00:09:05And the sweaters will be ready.
00:09:10She's really sweet.
00:09:12Thanks for coming with me today, newbie.
00:09:15I didn't really have a choice.
00:09:17You dragged me here.
00:09:18Wow.
00:09:19Still, thanks for not leaving.
00:09:23So, uh, Mrs. Green's the reason you won't leave Starlight Homes.
00:09:31I mean, you saved up all that money and you still won't move?
00:09:35Well, I haven't saved enough yet.
00:09:37And I haven't figured out what to do with Mrs. Green.
00:09:42The Vaughn Enterprise gave me an ultimatum.
00:09:44They have to be out next month.
00:09:46So, I guess that's it.
00:09:49What are you going to do?
00:09:50Whatever it takes.
00:09:52I'll sell everything I can if I have to.
00:09:54No matter what, I am protecting my home and my family.
00:09:58You said you were engaged with Henry Vaughn, right?
00:10:02I mean, he's rich enough to handle this without a second thought.
00:10:06Why didn't you ask him?
00:10:07You know why.
00:10:11It's a lie.
00:10:14You know why.
00:10:16It's a lie.
00:10:17Ready to tell the truth?
00:10:18Yes.
00:10:21The truth is...
00:10:25Henry Vaughn is a stingy bastard.
00:10:29What?
00:10:29He's just one of those rich kids.
00:10:32You know, he's selfish and cold and he's completely indifferent to someone like us.
00:10:37He would never help the orphanage.
00:10:41Are you sure about that?
00:10:43Yes.
00:10:44That's why I turned him down.
00:10:45But he's so obsessed with me.
00:10:47He wouldn't let me go.
00:10:50Wow.
00:10:52If it wasn't for him, I wouldn't have to sell this necklace.
00:10:58Mrs. Green gave it to me on my 18th birthday.
00:11:01It means a lot to you.
00:11:03Yes.
00:11:06But then so does Mrs. Green and Starlight Hopes.
00:11:12They were all I had growing up.
00:11:15I'll do anything I can to protect them.
00:11:17But that bastard Henry Vaughn, he better pray I don't catch him.
00:11:31Oh no.
00:11:33Mr. Vaughn.
00:11:34Wait.
00:11:35Did someone just say Mr. Vaughn?
00:11:36What did he just say Mr. Vaughn?
00:11:55Careful.
00:11:55Noobie, what are you doing?
00:12:13I was just about to ask you the same thing.
00:12:18You're still glued to your phone.
00:12:20You should be more careful.
00:12:21So, you were protecting me?
00:12:27Let's just say I didn't want my boss getting hurt on my first day.
00:12:31Huh.
00:12:31I knew it.
00:12:33You are the most responsible detail-oriented assistant ever.
00:12:37Stick with me.
00:12:38Make sure you get promoted.
00:12:41Wait.
00:12:42Wait.
00:12:43From now on, whatever I have, I'll share it with you.
00:12:47I don't like chocolate.
00:12:51Nonsense.
00:12:53Everybody likes chocolate.
00:13:07Lila Collins.
00:13:09We've met before.
00:13:11Lila Collins.
00:13:20We've met before.
00:13:28Not to be nosy, but you're really bad at this.
00:13:32It's none of your business.
00:13:35Who even are you?
00:13:37Same as everybody else here.
00:13:38I'm an orphan.
00:13:39They take kids your age?
00:13:41No, I've been here since I was two, but I guess I was never good enough to get adopted.
00:13:47Oh, sorry.
00:13:48No, don't be.
00:13:50This place is my home.
00:13:51I wouldn't trade it for anything.
00:13:53Oh, what about you?
00:13:54Why are you here?
00:13:55There's an event.
00:13:58Oh.
00:14:00It was a Vaughn family.
00:14:04Volunteering, giving back to the community, right?
00:14:06Why'd you say it like that?
00:14:09You know why.
00:14:10Rich people don't do charity unless PR and cameras are involved.
00:14:16But you seem different.
00:14:21A little clumsier, a bit less polished.
00:14:24You're not one of them, are you?
00:14:26Do I not look like one?
00:14:27No.
00:14:29You seem, I don't know, a little more human.
00:14:36Here, give me your hand.
00:14:38Come on.
00:14:42This is for you.
00:14:44I don't like chocolate.
00:14:46Nonsense.
00:14:47Everybody likes chocolate.
00:14:49Chocolate.
00:15:05You have let your father down.
00:15:07Let me guess, you're here about the rumor?
00:15:10You mean the scandal?
00:15:12Your father is furious.
00:15:14He's already talking about replacing you.
00:15:16Shocking, he's only been threatening that for the past 25 years.
00:15:19Henry, I didn't claw my way up the social ladder just to be thrown out of the Vaughn family.
00:15:24You've made that clear for the past 25 years as well.
00:15:28This isn't a joke.
00:15:29Did you forget how they treat us like trash?
00:15:32Just because I was his nurse when I gave birth to you.
00:15:37It's a misunderstanding.
00:15:41It doesn't concern you.
00:15:43Good.
00:15:45Then fix it.
00:15:47Get rid of her.
00:15:48And Starlight Homes.
00:15:49The deal was clear.
00:15:52Build the biggest shopping mall in the world, and you'll be heir.
00:15:56We've been outcasts for too long, Henry.
00:16:00But you are his son.
00:16:03Prove it.
00:16:04You're late.
00:16:28I need to talk to you.
00:16:29Wait.
00:16:30I have to tell you something first.
00:16:31Mr. Riffis is coming.
00:16:33He is a huge client, and he's having a meeting with me here.
00:16:36Victor Rivers?
00:16:38Since when is he important?
00:16:40Well, he's agreed to read my project proposal.
00:16:42Listen, I'm not playing this assistant game with you.
00:16:44Oh, hey, I get it.
00:16:45I know this job isn't ideal, but please just help me land this deal.
00:16:48Look, I can't save Starlight Homes, but if I get this money, I can help Mrs. Green move everybody out, and you saw her.
00:16:58You know how much she needs this money.
00:17:00Please just help me land this deal.
00:17:01I have one condition.
00:17:07Condition?
00:17:09If you get the money, you leave Starlight Homes.
00:17:17Take the money, forget about the orphanage, just go somewhere else and start over.
00:17:22Why do you care?
00:17:25Lila Collins?
00:17:27Oh, Mr. Rivers.
00:17:29It is a pleasure to meet you.
00:17:32Pleasure.
00:17:43This is my assistant.
00:17:45I'm not your assistant.
00:17:46Sorry.
00:17:47He's a new hire.
00:17:48Has anyone ever told you you look like someone?
00:17:54Oh, yes.
00:17:55Vaughn.
00:18:00Oh, yes.
00:18:01It's Vaughn.
00:18:02Henry Vaughn.
00:18:03Robert Pattinson?
00:18:06Lila said I look like him, but I think I'm better looking.
00:18:11Sorry.
00:18:11He's just joking.
00:18:13Please, take a seat.
00:18:18This is my project proposal.
00:18:23Please feel free to ask any questions.
00:18:25Oh, well.
00:18:28As you're, um, Miss Collins, Henry Vaughn's girlfriend, I'll be straightforward.
00:18:34I was thinking of gifting him a Chopard watch.
00:18:37What do you think?
00:18:40Uh, a what watch?
00:18:42Sorry.
00:18:43Surely you've heard of a Chopard watch.
00:18:46No, I, I guess watches are just a bit impractical.
00:18:52I just tend to use this.
00:18:54Oh, you are quite funny.
00:18:59I never imagined Vaughn would go for someone from your background.
00:19:05What do you two even talk about?
00:19:08Well, you know, just life.
00:19:11Life?
00:19:12You call your cheap clothes and secondhand shoes life?
00:19:16You're from completely different worlds.
00:19:18Of course, maybe Vaughn finds your humor or your ignorance entertaining.
00:19:24Yeah, lucky me.
00:19:27But your private event is with Vaughn, aren't none of my concern.
00:19:30And as for your business proposal, I shan't be taking it forward.
00:19:34We only ever do business with people with class.
00:19:38Mr. Rivers, you haven't even looked at it yet.
00:19:40Please, please just give me a chance.
00:19:42Is this how you won over Henry Vaughn?
00:19:44By being desperate and clingy?
00:19:46But it won't work with me, Miss Collins.
00:19:48Don't come near me again.
00:19:50I'm allergic to poverty.
00:19:51No, please.
00:19:52You haven't even read it.
00:19:53Please just give me a...
00:19:55Mr. Rivers.
00:20:00I'm warning you, Miss Collins.
00:20:02Don't play these little games with me.
00:20:04What games?
00:20:05I'm just asking for a chance.
00:20:07You proved you don't belong in this circle.
00:20:09And I'm not interested in your proposal.
00:20:11What?
00:20:12All this humiliation just because I don't know the brand of a luxury watch?
00:20:15Well, let me explain it so that you'll understand.
00:20:18Simple examples for someone like you.
00:20:22Think of it this way.
00:20:23You need a ticket to board a train, to enter the theater.
00:20:27And for certain business opportunities, you need a ticket too.
00:20:31A ticket?
00:20:31Exactly.
00:20:33Watches, cars, wines, houses, luxury.
00:20:38These are the tickets of the elite.
00:20:40Do you understand now?
00:20:43What?
00:20:43So I don't even qualify to sit and discuss business with you?
00:20:46Oh, you might think dating Henry Vaughn means that you have stepped into this circle.
00:20:50But believe me, you haven't.
00:20:53And honestly, I think he will tire of you soon enough.
00:20:56I'm quite sure.
00:20:57Mr. Rivers, you don't know anything about me.
00:20:59Oh, come on.
00:21:00I know enough.
00:21:01And if you ever want to talk business opportunities, maybe clean up your appearance first.
00:21:07Showing up in old polyester is most impolite.
00:21:11Leaving so soon, Mr. Rivers, we haven't finished our conversation yet.
00:21:19No, I'm done.
00:21:20Step aside.
00:21:20No, sit back down.
00:21:25I'm just getting started.
00:21:31What are you trying to do?
00:21:33Assistant, I'm warning you.
00:21:35Or what?
00:21:36You'll take away my ticket too?
00:21:37Charge me admission?
00:21:38Stay out of this.
00:21:40Apologize to her.
00:21:41What?
00:21:42The things you said were beyond rude.
00:21:44Offer her an apology now.
00:21:46Why would I do that?
00:21:48No.
00:21:48Victor Rivers, as you cling onto your crumbling family empire, you have no right to criticize
00:21:56a hard-working, self-made businesswoman.
00:21:59Oh, do shut up.
00:22:00I'll sue you for slander.
00:22:02Go ahead.
00:22:03Sue.
00:22:04I'm sure the judge would love to hear what you've said today.
00:22:08I'm calling my lawyer right now.
00:22:10You're finished.
00:22:11Lawyers can be tough.
00:22:12You really should apologize to him.
00:22:13The Chopar 201, how much is that?
00:22:2025 million nowadays?
00:22:22How generous, Mr. Rivers.
00:22:25So?
00:22:26That's exactly my point.
00:22:27The price of nobility.
00:22:29And how much do you owe the bank?
00:22:30More than a few of those watches, right?
00:22:37I don't understand what you're talking about.
00:22:40What are you doing?
00:22:42A year ago, Henry Vaughn discovered corruption in your company and terminated all deals with
00:22:48you, leading to significant financial problems for your group.
00:22:51But yet, you need the banks to still believe that you're thriving, so you got super creative
00:22:58with the numbers, practically lying to them, correct?
00:23:01That's nonsense.
00:23:03It's bullshit.
00:23:04The funny thing is, though, that it was corruption that led to the breakdown with Henry Vaughn,
00:23:09wasn't it?
00:23:12But now you think a 201 is just going to buy that all back?
00:23:15It's more like a one-way ticket to jail.
00:23:17I shall sue you.
00:23:22It's all a lie.
00:23:23Fine.
00:23:23Call it a lie.
00:23:25We'll verify that in court.
00:23:27Hey, call your lawyer.
00:23:30Friendly advice?
00:23:32Your half-assed lawyer won't beat Barnes.
00:23:35I won't let this go.
00:23:37Your careers are over.
00:23:39I will end you.
00:23:41I doubt it.
00:23:43But please try.
00:23:45Keep me entertained.
00:23:47How would you know all of that?
00:23:55Who are you?
00:24:00Who are you?
00:24:02Listen, Lila.
00:24:04I'm actually...
00:24:06No.
00:24:07It doesn't matter anymore.
00:24:08We lost the deal.
00:24:10That's what matters.
00:24:13The deal?
00:24:13Victor wasn't here for your project.
00:24:17He was using you to get to Henry Vaughn.
00:24:19I know.
00:24:20But if there's even a sliver of a chance, I'll take it.
00:24:24You'd let him humiliate you like that?
00:24:26Look, you sound like you're from a good family.
00:24:29So here's the truth.
00:24:31The world isn't a fairy tale.
00:24:33Yeah, he'll mock me.
00:24:35So what?
00:24:35If it helps the people I care about, then I will swallow it.
00:24:40Money isn't worth this.
00:24:43It is when it protects the people that matter.
00:24:47I'm going to beg Victor you can go home.
00:24:49You're still chasing him?
00:24:50Even after what he said?
00:24:52Yes.
00:24:53But you can go home.
00:24:55Don't worry.
00:24:56I'll make sure Linda pays you.
00:24:57And thank you for standing up for me today.
00:25:04It was very nice of you.
00:25:07It's just not what I need at the moment.
00:25:14Leave it.
00:25:16It's none of your business.
00:25:20Damn it.
00:25:21David, get Spark Up magazine a sponsorship.
00:25:27Spark Up?
00:25:28Doesn't Nyla Collins work there?
00:25:30Just give them the money and credit her.
00:25:33Get it done.
00:25:40This is a mess.
00:25:43But I can't watch her drown.
00:25:49Hey.
00:25:51You okay?
00:25:54Where's your hot assistant?
00:25:56Yes.
00:25:58Not the right one.
00:26:00Two days ago, you said he was the best assistant ever.
00:26:05And hello.
00:26:07He's a walking thirst rat.
00:26:10If you fired him, can I take him?
00:26:12No.
00:26:14I mean, stop joking.
00:26:16He's gone.
00:26:19Lila?
00:26:20What did you do?
00:26:22Oh, Linda.
00:26:23Whatever it is, I promise I'll fix it.
00:26:25Fix it?
00:26:26You're a genius.
00:26:28How did you land such a big sponsor?
00:26:30Victor Rivers agreed to the project.
00:26:32Oh, forget Rivers.
00:26:34Vaughn's funding us.
00:26:36You really have.
00:26:37Henry Vaughn wrapped around your little finger.
00:26:40Henry Vaughn?
00:26:43Sponsored...
00:26:44Us?
00:26:45They said they loved your project proposal.
00:26:48They read my project proposal?
00:26:50Yes.
00:26:51Lila, you're getting a raise.
00:26:52You and your assistant, whatever you two did, keep doing it.
00:26:58My assistant?
00:27:01Could it be...
00:27:04Henry?
00:27:05Henry.
00:27:08Hey...
00:27:09Why are you going?
00:27:20This is the address HR gave me.
00:27:24This can't be right.
00:27:25This is where he lives?
00:27:34Your father is losing patience.
00:27:37What's the delay with them all?
00:27:39Starlight Homes is already moving out.
00:27:41Just throw them out.
00:27:42The clock is ticking.
00:27:44There are still children in there.
00:27:47You want me to toss them out onto the street?
00:27:49Like we were tossed aside?
00:27:51Do you have any idea how serious this is?
00:27:54Without your father's support, we will lose everything.
00:27:58The project will finish on time.
00:28:01It's too late.
00:28:02Your little charity case with that girl is all over the news.
00:28:06I can't clean up your mess anymore.
00:28:09What are you talking about?
00:28:12I've spoken.
00:28:13The Browns.
00:28:15Helen's returning soon.
00:28:17You'll marry her.
00:28:18No.
00:28:19No, marriage wasn't part of the deal.
00:28:21Wake up, Henry.
00:28:23As the heir to Bon Enterprise, your marriage isn't a choice.
00:28:27It's a transaction.
00:28:31And it better be a good one.
00:28:37A contract marriage benefits no one?
00:28:41You're really willing to ruin two people without a second thought.
00:28:44Helen has agreed to this, Henry.
00:28:46Now, you better accept your fate.
00:28:48It's not up for discussion.
00:28:50And it's worth it just to keep your place in this family?
00:28:53I have scheduled an exclusive interview.
00:28:56In 30 minutes, you will be on live broadcast clarifying the scandal and announcing your engagement to Helen.
00:29:05You're in a real hurry, aren't you?
00:29:09With or without you, the announcement will take place.
00:29:12Now, if you show up, it's just an engagement.
00:29:14If you don't, I'll take actions against Starlight Holmes and Lila Collins.
00:29:20Is this a threat?
00:29:23You think I care about Lila Collins?
00:29:26I knew what happened with Victor Rivers, Henry.
00:29:32You're just not yourself when you're with her.
00:29:37If you can't clean up your mess,
00:29:39I will.
00:29:43Like always.
00:29:44Like always.
00:30:02Like always.
00:30:03Like always.
00:30:03Like always.
00:30:04Like always.
00:30:04Like always.
00:30:05Like always.
00:30:05Like always.
00:30:06Like always.
00:30:06Like always.
00:30:07Like always.
00:30:07Like always.
00:30:07Like always.
00:30:08Like always.
00:30:09Like always.
00:30:10Like always.
00:30:11Like always.
00:30:12Like always.
00:30:13Like always.
00:30:14Where are you?
00:30:39Hey! Hey, stop!
00:30:44Whoa. That was close.
00:30:59Did she even realize how dangerous that was?
00:31:02Hi. Is there a Henry here?
00:31:06I really need to find my assistant. Does he live here or work here?
00:31:14What's going on? Do you know him or not? Did I get the wrong place?
00:31:21Hello? I know there is someone in there.
00:31:24Please, just open up. Please, I really need to...
00:31:27Henry.
00:31:39Henry.
00:31:45Henry.
00:31:48You're really here.
00:31:49What are you doing here?
00:31:51I got your address from HR. Wait, that's not important.
00:31:54Did you submit my proposal to Vaughn Enterprise?
00:31:58Oh, it was you!
00:32:00How do you know Vaughn Enterprise?
00:32:02So that's why you came? To investigate your sponsorship?
00:32:07Yes, I...
00:32:08Either way, we have nothing to do with each other anymore.
00:32:11You fired me. Remember?
00:32:14Well, look.
00:32:15I've got things to do.
00:32:18Let's not track this out.
00:32:21I came to say thank you.
00:32:24I was out of line last time, I know that.
00:32:27But you stood up for me against Victor Rivers and...
00:32:30Look, I wanted to shut him down too, but...
00:32:35I've gotten so used to just handling things on my own and swallowing my pride.
00:32:43But then you showed up.
00:32:45I don't know how to say this, but, uh...
00:32:54Also, I hate owing people, and...
00:32:57And this will be nothing compared to what you did for me, but...
00:33:00I would like to buy you dinner.
00:33:04As a proper thank you.
00:33:07So what do you say?
00:33:09Dinner?
00:33:15Violet Collins.
00:33:19You may be my greatest mistake.
00:33:28Okay, I did say I'd treat you, but...
00:33:32One meal here might cost more than my entire paycheck.
00:33:37You said I could pick the place.
00:33:39I did, but...
00:33:45Aren't you gonna answer that?
00:33:49Doesn't matter.
00:33:51I've already made my decision.
00:33:54I don't know why, but...
00:33:55Do you seem different?
00:33:57Like there is a side to you I don't know.
00:34:00Breaking news.
00:34:01Laura Vaughan has just announced the engagement of Henry Vaughan and Helen Brown,
00:34:05heirs to two of the nation's largest enterprises.
00:34:08Mrs. Vaughan, your son was just involved in a scandal.
00:34:10How was he suddenly engaged?
00:34:11And how about this woman's girlfriend, Lila Collins?
00:34:13Is this a cover-up?
00:34:15I'll answer all your questions.
00:34:17First, regarding Miss Lila Collins.
00:34:20She has no romantic ties to her son.
00:34:24In fact, she is nothing but a liar,
00:34:26clinging to Henry in a desperate attempt for attention.
00:34:30I am formally announcing
00:34:31Miss Lila Collins and Starlight Homes
00:34:34will be facing legal action.
00:34:36You were never actually engaged to Henry Vaughan,
00:34:48were you?
00:34:50No, I admitted.
00:34:51But it was just a misunderstanding at first.
00:34:55I never meant for it to spiral like this.
00:34:58I needed a way to save Starlight Homes.
00:35:00And then one thing led to another and...
00:35:04Well, things got out of control.
00:35:06Laura Vaughan is suing you.
00:35:10She's labeled you as a liar.
00:35:13And soon the entire public will believe it.
00:35:16And if they think you could lie about an engagement,
00:35:19they'd believe you lie about anything,
00:35:23including Starlight Homes.
00:35:26But that's the truth.
00:35:27It's not a lie.
00:35:28It doesn't matter.
00:35:29People believe what they want to believe.
00:35:30Why are you telling me this?
00:35:34Because I'm offering you an alternative.
00:35:36What kind of alternative?
00:35:40A real engagement.
00:35:42We turn the lie into the truth.
00:35:45What?
00:35:49How did they get here so fast?
00:35:51Because I invited them.
00:35:53You did what?
00:35:54The only way to kill a rumor
00:35:56is to start another one.
00:35:58What exactly are you planning?
00:36:02Did you really think
00:36:03an ordinary assistant would live in that house?
00:36:07No luxury brands by heart
00:36:09and an inside knowledge
00:36:12of every industry?
00:36:15What are you saying?
00:36:17I told you
00:36:19I wasn't there for an interview.
00:36:22I was there for you.
00:36:25To meet someone who claimed to be
00:36:28my fiancée.
00:36:33You're saying
00:36:34that you are...
00:36:37Mr. Vaughn!
00:36:38Mr. Vaughn!
00:36:40What's your statement
00:36:40on your mother's press conference?
00:36:42Is the engagement real?
00:36:44Why are you dining
00:36:44with Isla Collins right now?
00:36:46Who exactly is your fiancée?
00:36:49He is...
00:36:51Henry Vaughn.
00:36:58Mr. Vaughn, what is the statement
00:36:59on your mother?
00:36:59What is the engagement real?
00:37:00What is your reality?
00:37:02Please, everyone,
00:37:03you're disturbing me and my guests.
00:37:05I'll issue a statement soon,
00:37:06but for now, give us a moment.
00:37:07Mr. Vaughn, we need to know
00:37:09who's your own right answer.
00:37:10And how long have you been together?
00:37:12Are we expecting children?
00:37:13How many kids do you have?
00:37:15Mr. Vaughn!
00:37:16Mr. Vaughn, come on!
00:37:17Just give an answer!
00:37:19Mr. Vaughn!
00:37:19What exactly do you want?
00:37:24I want to make a deal.
00:37:26I'll give you enough money
00:37:28to relocate Starlight Homes.
00:37:31In exchange,
00:37:33we stay engaged,
00:37:35breaking off my marriage
00:37:36with Helen Brown.
00:37:38You think money is what I want?
00:37:40I want Starlight Homes!
00:37:41I want them to stop
00:37:42tearing down our home!
00:37:43I know your priority
00:37:45is Mrs. Green's care, right?
00:37:48I can make sure
00:37:50she gets the best treatment,
00:37:52best resources,
00:37:54I'll give you enough
00:37:55to rebuild
00:37:57Starlight Homes
00:37:58somewhere else
00:37:59exactly as it is now.
00:38:01But you have to move.
00:38:04And this fake engagement?
00:38:07It's the only way
00:38:08to escape the wedding trap
00:38:09my mother has set.
00:38:11When this is all over,
00:38:13we can break off
00:38:14the engagement.
00:38:16You'll be free
00:38:16with your money
00:38:18and you could open
00:38:20an orphanage
00:38:20anywhere in the world
00:38:21for all I care.
00:38:22So that's why
00:38:25you called the press here.
00:38:26To force me into agreeing
00:38:27I never had a real choice,
00:38:29did I?
00:38:31I don't think
00:38:32you have a choice,
00:38:34Lila.
00:38:35This is the only option.
00:38:39The great Henry Vaughn
00:38:41pretends to be my assistant
00:38:42and plays me
00:38:45and entertains me
00:38:46like some rich kid's game.
00:38:49What
00:38:49an
00:38:51honor.
00:38:54What do you say?
00:38:57Beyonce?
00:38:58Mr. Vaughn,
00:39:04Mr. Vaughn,
00:39:04are you going to make
00:39:05a statement tonight?
00:39:06Is Helen Brown
00:39:07the third wheel
00:39:07in all of this?
00:39:09Or is Lila Collins
00:39:09the one who's interfering?
00:39:11I understand
00:39:11this has been shocking
00:39:12for everyone,
00:39:14Lila and I included.
00:39:16But what I can say
00:39:17is that I admire
00:39:18Lila Collins
00:39:19immensely.
00:39:23Her personality,
00:39:24her strength.
00:39:27There's something about her
00:39:28I've never seen
00:39:29in anyone before.
00:39:32As for the press conference today,
00:39:34I had no prior knowledge of it.
00:39:37I want to extend
00:39:37my apologies
00:39:38to Miss Helen Brown.
00:39:40However,
00:39:40there is no romantic
00:39:42relationship between us.
00:39:44We are not engaged.
00:39:45So you are engaged
00:39:46to Lila?
00:39:48Of course.
00:39:49All the rumors
00:39:50you've heard about us,
00:39:51it's true.
00:39:54Tonight's date
00:39:54speaks for itself.
00:39:57Am I right, Lila?
00:40:01Yes.
00:40:03Yes, that's right.
00:40:05Congratulations.
00:40:07This is incredible.
00:40:08Congrats.
00:40:10And of course,
00:40:12special thanks
00:40:13to the woman by my side.
00:40:15I hate him.
00:40:17And I hate myself.
00:40:21Because for just
00:40:22one fleeting moment,
00:40:24I wished it was real.
00:40:39Evening to you too,
00:40:40Father.
00:40:41Don't call yourself
00:40:42my son
00:40:43and then humiliate
00:40:44this family.
00:40:46I told you
00:40:47to handle
00:40:47the mall project,
00:40:49shut down
00:40:49Starlight Homes,
00:40:50and instead,
00:40:51you're seen
00:40:52with an activist.
00:40:53Henry must have
00:40:54been blackmailed.
00:40:55And you?
00:40:56A press conference
00:40:57turned into a joke?
00:40:58My interns
00:40:58could handle
00:40:59PR better than you.
00:41:02I've reached
00:41:03an agreement
00:41:04with Lila Collins.
00:41:05She'll move
00:41:06Starlight Homes
00:41:06within the week.
00:41:08The mall project
00:41:08won't be on schedule.
00:41:10It'll be a month
00:41:10ahead of time.
00:41:11And why would
00:41:12she move?
00:41:14Oh,
00:41:15what have you
00:41:16promised her?
00:41:16Don't tell me
00:41:18you've agreed
00:41:18to marry her.
00:41:20We went through
00:41:21hell negotiating
00:41:22the Brown Family Alliance.
00:41:24That marriage
00:41:24won't stop the rumors.
00:41:26It'll make them worse.
00:41:27Times have changed.
00:41:29People don't blindly
00:41:30believe tabloid scandal
00:41:31anymore.
00:41:32Sooner or later,
00:41:33someone's going to find out
00:41:34that we used
00:41:34power and intimidation
00:41:36to force
00:41:37Starlight Homes out.
00:41:38And when that happens,
00:41:39who's going to clear
00:41:39our name?
00:41:40The Browns?
00:41:41They never wanted
00:41:43this mess
00:41:43in the first place.
00:41:45This is the only
00:41:45way forward.
00:41:46I promise you.
00:41:48This mall,
00:41:49I'll see it done.
00:41:58This is your last chance.
00:42:01Once it's done,
00:42:03get rid of the girl.
00:42:09Don't make me
00:42:10regret this.
00:42:19You might be able
00:42:20to fool your father.
00:42:22But I know my son.
00:42:25It was to protect
00:42:26the girl.
00:42:27Wasn't it?
00:42:33I don't know
00:42:34what you're talking about.
00:42:36What did she do
00:42:37to you, Henry?
00:42:39Do you know
00:42:40how long
00:42:41we fought
00:42:41to get here?
00:42:42You fought.
00:42:45Have you ever
00:42:46stopped to think
00:42:46that I never
00:42:47wanted any of this
00:42:48in the first place?
00:42:50The wealth,
00:42:51the power.
00:42:52Sure,
00:42:52you gave me
00:42:52all of that,
00:42:53but at what cost?
00:42:55Pretending to be
00:42:56something that we're not?
00:42:57How is that
00:42:58any different
00:42:59from the people
00:43:00who resented us?
00:43:01You sound like
00:43:03those useless brats
00:43:05chasing after
00:43:06some fantasy
00:43:07called freedom.
00:43:09Tell me,
00:43:10without money,
00:43:11without status,
00:43:13what do you have?
00:43:15Nothing.
00:43:17And when that day comes,
00:43:19the girl
00:43:19will be gone too.
00:43:20You again?
00:43:48You're that guy
00:43:48that came with the Vaughns.
00:43:50Their servant,
00:43:50right?
00:43:51You never said
00:43:52I was a servant.
00:43:53Whatever.
00:43:55At least you're not
00:43:55that prick.
00:43:57Prick?
00:43:58Yeah.
00:43:59Henry Vaughn.
00:44:00Total nightmare.
00:44:06You've met him?
00:44:08No,
00:44:09not exactly,
00:44:10but I've seen him
00:44:11from a distance,
00:44:11surrounded by people,
00:44:13acting all important,
00:44:14like he's royalty
00:44:15or something.
00:44:16You hate him for that?
00:44:18No.
00:44:19I hate him
00:44:20because every time
00:44:21he comes here,
00:44:22we have to spend
00:44:23days preparing.
00:44:24Mrs. Green is old
00:44:25and her health
00:44:26isn't great.
00:44:27But every time
00:44:28the Vaughns decide
00:44:29to use us
00:44:30as this little
00:44:30PR stunt,
00:44:32she has to get up,
00:44:34pose for photos
00:44:35and look presentable.
00:44:38We scrub the halls,
00:44:40we rehearse
00:44:40fake answers
00:44:41for reporters,
00:44:42and we have to hide
00:44:43all our old toys.
00:44:46God forbid
00:44:47the Vaughns
00:44:47see how we really live.
00:44:50They don't care about us.
00:44:52All they care about
00:44:53is looking good.
00:44:57I see.
00:45:00So, yeah.
00:45:02I hope he stops coming.
00:45:05I hope I never see
00:45:06Henry Vaughn here again.
00:45:10But at least I met you.
00:45:12What's your name, anyway?
00:45:14I have to go.
00:45:16What? Why?
00:45:17Will I see you again?
00:45:22No.
00:45:25You won't.
00:45:32We met again after all.
00:45:34Stick close.
00:45:49And breathe.
00:45:51Easy for you to say.
00:45:52Trust me.
00:45:53It wasn't easy at first.
00:45:54This is your first
00:45:59public appearance together.
00:46:00It's tonight's the date.
00:46:01Lila,
00:46:02how does it feel
00:46:02dating the city's
00:46:03most eligible bachelor?
00:46:05Breathe.
00:46:06Ignore everything else.
00:46:08They're staring.
00:46:09Why are they staring?
00:46:10Is something wrong
00:46:11with my dress?
00:46:11You're my fiancé.
00:46:13No one will question you.
00:46:16Mr. Vaughn,
00:46:17does it mean that the family
00:46:18will be?
00:46:18Lila!
00:46:18The word, Mr. Vaughn.
00:46:26You mean that the family?
00:46:26Lila!
00:46:27Have we met
00:46:41before?
00:46:44Why do you ask?
00:46:45You seem
00:46:46familiar.
00:46:48You have been to
00:46:49Starlight Homes
00:46:49before.
00:46:50We must have met there.
00:46:52No.
00:46:54Trust me,
00:46:54if I had met
00:46:55someone this loud
00:46:56before I probably
00:46:57would have remembered.
00:46:58Excuse me,
00:47:00if I'd met you
00:47:01before I would
00:47:01have remembered too.
00:47:03Prick.
00:47:06Why are you laughing?
00:47:07Well,
00:47:25if it isn't my
00:47:26former fiancé
00:47:27and his charity case.
00:47:32She's my guest
00:47:33tonight, Heddle.
00:47:34Oh, I'm joking.
00:47:34What, no warm welcome?
00:47:38We haven't seen each other
00:47:39for five years.
00:47:40We were never that close.
00:47:44Ouch.
00:47:45You've gotten meaner.
00:47:48Do you remember
00:47:49high school?
00:47:51Everyone used to call you
00:47:52the bastard son.
00:47:54I was the only one
00:47:55shutting them off.
00:47:55Thanks for reminding me.
00:47:56Don't get me wrong.
00:47:57I mean,
00:47:58your background's messy.
00:47:59But men like your father,
00:48:02they do have plenty
00:48:03of affairs.
00:48:04Your mother being a nurse
00:48:05is not exactly shocking.
00:48:13Oh, you didn't know.
00:48:16Henry wasn't even raised
00:48:17in the Vaughn mansion
00:48:18at first.
00:48:19That was the time
00:48:19that he was kicked out.
00:48:21That's enough,
00:48:22Helen.
00:48:25Why are you here?
00:48:26I'm just curious.
00:48:29I wanted to see
00:48:30what's really going on
00:48:31between you two lovebirds.
00:48:32And?
00:48:33What do you see?
00:48:34Exactly what I assumed.
00:48:38A fake engagement.
00:48:44You've had too much
00:48:45to drink, Helen.
00:48:47Honey,
00:48:47I haven't been started.
00:48:49But if you two
00:48:50want to continue
00:48:51your little pretend game,
00:48:53I'm happy to play along.
00:48:54We need to talk.
00:49:16You just left me
00:49:17standing there.
00:49:18What am I,
00:49:19a damn prop?
00:49:20She,
00:49:22she practically
00:49:23pulled herself down.
00:49:26Ugh.
00:49:27Aw,
00:49:28did I hurt your feelings?
00:49:31I'm just leaving.
00:49:33Wait.
00:49:35I like you,
00:49:36so I'm going to give you
00:49:37a little friendly warning.
00:49:39Stay away from him.
00:49:41He's mine.
00:49:46He's mine.
00:49:47Maybe you should tell him
00:49:48that he's the one
00:49:49who called off your engagement.
00:49:51He said he was feeling trapped.
00:49:53Can you imagine
00:49:53someone like us
00:49:55feeling something like that?
00:49:57God thinks he's living
00:49:58a Shakespearean tragedy.
00:50:00What exactly
00:50:00are you trying to say?
00:50:02That we understand
00:50:03each other.
00:50:06When Henry struggled
00:50:07to fit in,
00:50:08I was the one
00:50:08who helped him.
00:50:10I was the one
00:50:10who brought him
00:50:11into our circle.
00:50:13Without me,
00:50:14he would be no more
00:50:15than an illegitimate shadow.
00:50:16Are you saying
00:50:17he needs you?
00:50:18No.
00:50:19I'm saying I made him.
00:50:21And now,
00:50:21just because of you,
00:50:23he's ready to throw
00:50:23it all away.
00:50:24That's not happening.
00:50:26Let me fill you in.
00:50:28Henry promised his father
00:50:29that the second
00:50:30Starlight Home
00:50:30would be gone.
00:50:32So would you.
00:50:33I don't care.
00:50:34Really?
00:50:37Why don't you
00:50:38hear for yourself?
00:50:39Okay.
00:50:39Okay.
00:50:40Okay.
00:50:40Okay.
00:50:40Okay.
00:50:41Okay.
00:50:41Okay.
00:50:41Okay.
00:50:42Okay.
00:50:42Okay.
00:50:43Okay.
00:50:43Okay.
00:50:43Okay.
00:50:44We used power
00:50:47and intimidation
00:50:49to force Starlight
00:50:49Homes out.
00:50:51This is the only
00:50:51way forward.
00:50:52I promise you.
00:50:54This mall,
00:50:55I'll see it done.
00:51:04You take the bedroom,
00:51:05I'll take the couch.
00:51:07Do we really need
00:51:07to live together?
00:51:09Why did you rent
00:51:09an apartment just for this?
00:51:10This may be a fake
00:51:13engagement,
00:51:14but it needs to be
00:51:15convincing.
00:51:18You want a place
00:51:18just for us.
00:51:21No one invited guests.
00:51:23Right.
00:51:24You wouldn't want
00:51:25someone like me
00:51:26stepping foot
00:51:26in the Vaughn mansion.
00:51:28That's not what I meant.
00:51:29Myla,
00:51:30why do you always
00:51:32assume the worst?
00:51:32get some rest?
00:51:38Why do rich people
00:51:45always put things
00:51:46so high?
00:51:48Try not to break it.
00:51:50It's expensive.
00:51:53I suppose that shelf
00:51:55would be a challenge
00:51:56for a short-legged corgi.
00:51:57I'm not.
00:52:00I'm not a corgi.
00:52:05Henry?
00:52:07Can I ask you something?
00:52:10And
00:52:10can you promise me
00:52:13you won't lie to me?
00:52:18Can you promise me
00:52:20you won't lie to me?
00:52:21Depends on what you ask.
00:52:25Right.
00:52:25Of course.
00:52:29You made this
00:52:30engagement deal
00:52:31for Starlight Homes,
00:52:32right?
00:52:34A so-called
00:52:36win-win.
00:52:39Was it all just
00:52:40a new PR strategy
00:52:41for Vaughn Enterprise?
00:52:48Answer me.
00:52:50I already told you.
00:52:53You get what you want
00:52:54and I get what I want.
00:52:56But what do you want,
00:52:57Henry?
00:52:58I don't get you.
00:53:00You could have
00:53:00thrown me out,
00:53:01but you didn't.
00:53:02You met Mrs. Green.
00:53:04You knew exactly
00:53:05what would break me,
00:53:07but you never,
00:53:08ever used it.
00:53:11You could have
00:53:11labeled me a liar.
00:53:14To paint me
00:53:15as the woman
00:53:16who came in between
00:53:17you and Helen.
00:53:19But you didn't.
00:53:19Why?
00:53:22Was it all
00:53:23just a way
00:53:24to make sure
00:53:25I willingly
00:53:26move Starlight Homes
00:53:27to fake an engagement?
00:53:31Was it worth it?
00:53:34Henry Vaughn,
00:53:36why are you
00:53:37helping me?
00:53:42I made my terms clear.
00:53:45You need to move
00:53:46Starlight Homes
00:53:46within a week.
00:53:47No, that's not an answer.
00:53:54All my life,
00:53:56I've been pretending
00:53:59to be someone I'm not.
00:54:04My mother went through
00:54:05hell
00:54:06because of where
00:54:07she came from.
00:54:09She always said
00:54:10she didn't want me
00:54:10to suffer like she did,
00:54:12so
00:54:12I did what was expected.
00:54:15I pushed.
00:54:17I fought.
00:54:20I became the
00:54:21perfect heir.
00:54:25The one who deserved
00:54:26to lead the Vaughn family.
00:54:31But I'm not them.
00:54:35I never was.
00:54:36I know that.
00:54:42Everything you said,
00:54:44using Mrs. Green
00:54:45to threaten you,
00:54:47forcing you all out
00:54:48with that warning,
00:54:49I did consider it.
00:54:51I'm not a saint.
00:54:54The thought
00:54:55crossed my mind
00:54:56more than once.
00:54:57But
00:54:59you didn't.
00:55:02Look,
00:55:03I don't want to talk
00:55:04about us like this,
00:55:05not while everything's
00:55:06still a mess.
00:55:08But what I said
00:55:09about you,
00:55:11that I admire
00:55:13your resilience,
00:55:16that you got to me,
00:55:17none of that
00:55:20was a lie.
00:55:26I,
00:55:27I think...
00:55:27I think...
00:55:29I think...
00:55:37I think...
00:55:39I think...
00:55:41I think...
00:55:43I think...
00:55:45Henry Vaughn,
00:55:58don't betray my trust.
00:56:15It's just a call
00:56:39to my fiancé.
00:56:40It's not too much.
00:56:42Right?
00:56:42Right?
00:56:42Myla?
00:56:53Oh,
00:56:53you picked up.
00:56:55Uh,
00:56:56I figured
00:56:57you
00:56:57left early
00:56:59this morning,
00:57:00so
00:57:00I was
00:57:01just checking
00:57:02if
00:57:03everything's okay?
00:57:05Yeah.
00:57:06Oh,
00:57:07okay,
00:57:07well,
00:57:07I'm just about
00:57:08to head out,
00:57:08so I...
00:57:09Myla,
00:57:09I'm really sorry,
00:57:10but can we talk later?
00:57:13Uh,
00:57:13yeah.
00:57:15Sure.
00:57:16Don't overthink it.
00:57:17My mother,
00:57:18she's in the hospital.
00:57:19What?
00:57:21What happened?
00:57:22Are you okay?
00:57:23I'm fine.
00:57:24Don't worry.
00:57:26I'll call you back soon,
00:57:27okay?
00:57:28Okay.
00:57:28Okay.
00:57:28What the hell
00:57:34happened?
00:57:44Lala,
00:57:44Mrs. Green is missing.
00:57:50What happened?
00:57:51Yesterday,
00:57:52someone came
00:57:52claiming that
00:57:53Starlight Homes
00:57:54was moving
00:57:54and that they wanted
00:57:55to take her
00:57:55on one last visit.
00:57:56We refused,
00:57:58but then last night
00:57:59she was taken
00:58:00from a ward.
00:58:01How can that happen?
00:58:02I'm so sorry,
00:58:03Lala.
00:58:04All the security
00:58:05footage was erased.
00:58:07Who would want
00:58:08to discharge her early?
00:58:10He said he was here
00:58:11on behalf of
00:58:11your fiancée,
00:58:13Henry Vaughan.
00:58:14Miss Collins,
00:58:16a word,
00:58:17please.
00:58:17We need to talk.
00:58:21Do you work for Henry
00:58:22or Vaughan Enterprise?
00:58:23Does it matter?
00:58:25They're the same.
00:58:26Not to me.
00:58:27I see what he meant.
00:58:28You're special.
00:58:30But special is never
00:58:31what this family needs.
00:58:32What do you want from me?
00:58:34Easy.
00:58:35Walk away now
00:58:36and we'll make sure
00:58:38Mrs. Green
00:58:39gets the care
00:58:40that she needs.
00:58:42If you had
00:58:42this much power,
00:58:44you could make me
00:58:45disappear without
00:58:46a second thought.
00:58:47Why bother
00:58:48making me a deal?
00:58:49Consider Henry's
00:58:50last kindness
00:58:51to you.
00:58:52This isn't Henry's
00:58:53idea.
00:58:54You can't fool me.
00:58:56Isn't it though?
00:58:58Lila,
00:58:58you don't know him.
00:59:00No, I know enough.
00:59:02Then ask him.
00:59:04Go.
00:59:05Find him.
00:59:06Confront him.
00:59:08Right now,
00:59:09you don't see it.
00:59:11But he's a part
00:59:12of this family.
00:59:13He's a Vaughan.
00:59:15And there's nothing
00:59:16that you can do
00:59:17about it.
00:59:17This is Henry Vaughan.
00:59:27Leave a message
00:59:28and I'll get back
00:59:28to you.
00:59:30It's fine.
00:59:32He's just busy.
00:59:39Henry!
00:59:40The number you have dialed is busy now.
00:59:53No.
00:59:56No.
00:59:58Henry Vaughn, was this all a game to you?
01:00:03Yes, doctor, I want the transfer arranged as soon as possible.
01:00:07That's great.
01:00:09I'll coordinate with her guardian.
01:00:11Sir, Mrs. Green has gone missing.
01:00:15What?
01:00:15Someone has taken her from the hospital.
01:00:17Find out who?
01:00:18No need.
01:00:22I just saved your career and secured your place within this family.
01:00:26You're welcome.
01:00:27What did you do?
01:00:28Well, you were going to get rid of that girl eventually.
01:00:30I simply sped things up.
01:00:31You threatened her?
01:00:32Don't be so dramatic.
01:00:34I arranged for Mrs. Green to receive top-tier medical care.
01:00:39And the only condition?
01:00:40Lila walks away from you.
01:00:42How long do you plan to control my life?
01:00:52Wake up, Henry.
01:00:54You were not just yourself.
01:00:56You were Richard Vaughn's son.
01:00:58My son.
01:00:59And the heir to this family.
01:01:02I used to not figure that out.
01:01:03Did I ever get a say in any of this?
01:01:08Get back here!
01:01:11Mrs. Vaughn!
01:01:13Mrs. Vaughn!
01:01:13You okay?
01:01:27What are you doing here?
01:01:29Well, considering it's my family's hospital, did you really think I wouldn't show?
01:01:34They said it was exhaustion.
01:01:37This isn't your fault.
01:01:39You've done everything that she's ever expected of you.
01:01:42Don't blame yourself.
01:01:44I'm not blaming myself.
01:01:48I just don't know when it became so hard to be around her.
01:01:54I checked with the doctors.
01:01:56They said that she'd wake soon.
01:02:00Everything's gonna be fine.
01:02:06And really, you couldn't have picked a better hospital.
01:02:08No.
01:02:12Speaking of which, I have a little update on your fiancé's family situation.
01:02:18You mean, Mrs. Graham?
01:02:22JHU's doing a new study on VR assistant memory recovery.
01:02:26They're willing to fast-track her treatment.
01:02:29That's great.
01:02:31Thank you, Helen.
01:02:32No need to thank me.
01:02:33We're friends, aren't we?
01:02:34No need to thank me.
01:02:35We're friends, aren't we?
01:02:36If you really want to thank me...
01:02:36You really want to thank me?
01:02:37See?
01:02:38Catching up with me isn't so bad, is it?
01:02:39Today hasn't been the worst.
01:02:40You didn't remember that we're still friends, right?
01:02:43Even though our engagement's off.
01:02:43Now that we're on the topic of it, I do have to ask.
01:02:44Do you want to thank you?
01:02:45If you really want to thank me...
01:02:47If you really want to thank me...
01:02:47You really want to thank me?
01:02:52I'm not sure.
01:02:53You really want to thank you.
01:02:53See?
01:02:53Catching up with me isn't so bad, is it?
01:02:55Today hasn't been the worst.
01:02:56Today hasn't been the worst.
01:02:57been the worst. You do remember that we're still friends, right? Even though our engagement's
01:03:03off. Now that we're on the topic of it, I do have to ask. Are you sure you don't want
01:03:11to marry me? A union between our families, we could withstand anything. Helen, I'm serious
01:03:18about Lila. I haven't told her yet, but I love her.
01:03:27Wow. I don't think I've ever heard you use that word before.
01:03:35Neither have I. Until now.
01:03:51Come on. Just one meal. Can I have my friends full attention for just once?
01:03:56I'll just be one second. Just wait until I explain about Mrs. Green's treatment. Then
01:04:02you can give her all the details at once. Wouldn't that be better?
01:04:05Fine.
01:04:08So the study is still in early works, but if you want her to have a shot, then she should
01:04:26be transferred as soon as possible. I see. I'll talk to Lila. Thank you, Helen.
01:04:32I like her. I like her. You know, she's, um, different. Cute.
01:04:45I need to take this. Lila will keep calling unless it's urgent. I just thought of something.
01:04:57How about we both go to the hospital together and we'll tell her the news in person.
01:05:01Helen, what are you doing? You've been trying to distract me since we sat down. What exactly
01:05:16are you planning?
01:05:17I don't know what you're talking about. You're stalling. Why? Anyway, I swear I'm warning
01:05:25you. Tell me now. What did you do to Lila? Nothing. You'd better be telling the truth.
01:05:43You never even saw me. I should never have trusted him. Don't go, Lila.
01:06:09Liar. Don't touch me.
01:06:11Lila, I didn't lie to you. Go have dinner with your real fiance. Goodbye.
01:06:17You saw us? Oh, so you're finally admitting it. Great. Just fantastic.
01:06:24Mrs. Green is missing and you're out having some romantic meal with Helen.
01:06:27What did you just say? Mrs. Green is missing?
01:06:29Yes, genius. David had her taken. He said you ordered it, but I'm not stupid. I know that
01:06:35you would never do something so pointless.
01:06:36It's my mother. She must have planned this with Helen. No wonder she was pushing the treatment
01:06:41conversation.
01:06:42You know what? It doesn't matter anymore. If you want me gone, just say it. Okay? I will
01:06:48make it easy for you. You can have your happily ever after.
01:06:51My happily ever after is only with you.
01:06:54Just stop lying. Please. You're using me. And you said you were at the hospital with Laura,
01:07:02but you weren't. And then you hung up on me and...
01:07:08Let go.
01:07:13Just listen to me. Please. Okay?
01:07:16My mother did collapse earlier. I took her to the hospital. She's stable now.
01:07:25Helen only showed up because it was her family's hospital. She came to find me. I didn't know
01:07:30anything about Mrs. Green being taken. Okay? I swear. I already suspected David was reporting
01:07:36my movements to my family, so I had someone tail him.
01:07:39You... you did? Yeah. We'll find Mrs. Green. Soon. I promise you, Lila, nobody is going
01:07:48to hurt your family. What about lunch?
01:07:52Helen told me about this new treatment, one that could help Mrs. Green recover her memory.
01:07:58I was relieved. Okay? That's all we talked about. She set me up. Lila, she knew you'd see
01:08:07us, she knew you'd call, and I'm betting she had David tip her off to your whereabouts just
01:08:12to make you doubt me. Lila, can you forgive me?
01:08:23Now is not the time. You're right. When this is all over, we'll have plenty of time to talk
01:08:32about us. Come on. I know where Mrs. Green is. Let's go take her home.
01:08:48How... how did she get here? David moved her to a different hospital. But she must have
01:09:00found her way back here. He remembers this place? Yes, Lila. Maybe she remembers more than
01:09:08we think. And if we give her enough time, maybe she'll remember everything.
01:09:13You've come to tell me your decision, haven't you?
01:09:35You always said you know me. You should already know my decision.
01:09:40You're gonna ruin everything. No. Everything's saved because of her.
01:09:51What about the mall project? Have you thought about that?
01:09:55We're still building the biggest shopping center in the world. But it will be unlike any other.
01:10:02There will be a park inside. And at its heart, the best orphanage in the world.
01:10:06You're keeping Starlight Hose? Because it belongs there. I'm not tearing it down. I'm making it better.
01:10:15We'll rebuild it into something brighter, something real.
01:10:19And what about your father? He won't stand for this. He wasn't happy at first. Then he saw the stock price.
01:10:28I used to think that love meant obeying you. Meeting every expectation you set.
01:10:39But love isn't about becoming what someone else wants you to be. It's about accepting who you really are.
01:10:47Who you really are. I hope that, that one day, you'll love me that way too.
01:10:56I've been thinking.
01:11:00I've been thinking about why you feel so familiar.
01:11:28And?
01:11:32I used to hate it when the villains came to Starlight Homes.
01:11:37But one day, that changed.
01:11:40Why?
01:11:41Because I met a very handsome, very quiet, very kind boy.
01:11:51How handsome.
01:11:53I'm sorry it took me so long to recognize you.
01:12:00You're forgiven.
01:12:03I love you.
01:12:15I love you.
01:12:20I love you.
01:12:24I love you.
01:12:25I've drifted way too far.
01:12:30I see sometimes behind those kind eyes.
01:12:36I'm in a different outfit.
01:12:41I love you.
01:12:42I love you.
01:12:43I love you.
01:12:44I love you.
01:12:46I love you.
01:12:47Great!
01:12:48Amazing!
01:12:50Take my heart, let go for your hands
01:12:55I've been spending all my days
01:12:59Great, amazing, thank you
