00:00:00Ho, ho, ho! I have a gift for you. Jessica.

00:00:26Cheers. It may be full surprises.

00:00:28Ho, ho, ho! I have a gift for you. Jessica, you have inherited this mansion, along with

00:00:36your father's business empire and assets worth over a billion dollars. I just need a signature

00:00:41from you. Oh, and a hundred and five million dollars in cash.

00:00:49We're rich!

00:00:50Let me hold on to you for your baby. Yeah.

00:00:53You know, my whole life, I grew up in foster care, moving from place to place, and now

00:01:01I finally have a place that I can call home.

00:01:04It was real great to win the jackpot. Now my only wish is to, is to reunite with my mother.

00:01:11You bastard child! You will never reunite with your mother. We made sure that that whore is

00:01:17gone forever. My mother is gone because of you?! Well, we had a little help from James Thornton,

00:01:24the most powerful man in the Thornton family. Time for you to go back to your poor little country, sis.

00:01:31Yes, ma'am?

00:01:32USCIS. Your visa were expired years ago. You're being deported.

00:01:36What? No, there must be some mistake here. Adrian, didn't you help me file my immigration paperwork?

00:01:42Whoops. Well, I guess I screwed up.

00:01:45What?

00:01:47Hey, baby. Adrian, are you cheating on me?! With her?!

00:01:53Choose the right side, babe. You'll never win against them.

00:01:56That's true.

00:01:57Um, according to the terms of the will, non-citizens are not eligible to inherit the estate.

00:02:04Everything will pass to your next of kin, Lisa and Kristen Miller.

00:02:09You thought you could get rich overnight? Keep dreaming.

00:02:13Seriously?

00:02:14Bon voyage, half sis.

00:02:16The boss is a surgeon. They're about to deport a woman named Jessica Miller.

00:02:29Jessica Miller?

00:02:32It's her.

00:02:41Oh, thank God you're alive.

00:02:42She's so beautiful and kind. The girl I've always dreamed of.

00:02:46She saved my life once. I owe her.

00:02:53Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.

00:02:55Jessica?

00:02:56Do I know you?

00:02:57She doesn't remember me.

00:03:04I'm Daniel. You're a lawyer. Just pretend we know each other.

00:03:07If I can get you out of here.

00:03:09We've spoken to the judge and Miss Miller should be released immediately.

00:03:13Wait, wait, wait, you can't deport her. She is about to marry a U.S. citizen.

00:03:20Who's the lucky guy?

00:03:21I am.

00:03:23I marry her.

00:03:24A fake marriage won't save her.

00:03:25Our marriage is real.

00:03:26Mm-hmm. Yeah.

00:03:27A hundred percent real.

00:03:28Prove it then.

00:03:29That's it? You call that a kiss?

00:03:30What?

00:03:31What?

00:03:32What?

00:03:33What?

00:03:34What?

00:03:35I'll prove it then.

00:03:43That's it? You call that a kiss?

00:03:57Need more proof, officer?

00:03:59Look, this guy is a lawyer to some of the most important families in town.

00:04:03And if you don't let her go, they'll make sure you lose your damn job.

00:04:07Fine, you can have her.

00:04:09Thank you, officer.

00:04:15I think we're good.

00:04:17It's not over.

00:04:21We'll be checking your marital status and conducting interviews.

00:04:24And there are a few very specific requirements you should know.

00:04:27Make sure you two are staying in the same house and sleeping in the same bed.

00:04:32Or it's game over.

00:04:36Well, thank you for the rescue.

00:04:42Oh, it's no problem.

00:04:45But, um...

00:04:47Daniel...

00:04:49Would you...

00:04:51Would you marry me?

00:04:53Oh, Jessica. I've waited for this moment for five years.

00:04:55I mean, it would only be a contract marriage.

00:04:59But once I get my green card, I'll inherit my father's business empire.

00:05:05And I'll share half of it with you.

00:05:07Even your misunderstanding looks so cute.

00:05:09I only want you, Jessica.

00:05:11But before I get my green card, you're gonna have to help me deal with my stepsister and her mom.

00:05:19They're trying to get rid of me.

00:05:21And they've already stolen my fortune.

00:05:23And they made my mother disappear.

00:05:25Deal.

00:05:27What?

00:05:29That's it?

00:05:31This lily stands for loyalties on new beginnings.

00:05:39Something that I want with you.

00:05:41Now I know it's rushed.

00:05:43But I promise you...

00:05:45I will buy you a proper ring soon.

00:05:57From now on, let's make every Christmas our own.

00:05:59Fulfill it.

00:06:01With memories.

00:06:13You can't do this!

00:06:15Jess, it's okay.

00:06:17Just wait here.

00:06:18I'll handle it.

00:06:24What?

00:06:25Why are you helping that girl?

00:06:27Kristen Miller is our ally.

00:06:29And she wants her the hell out of this picture.

00:06:32It's too late, Dad.

00:06:33We already got married.

00:06:34Are you insane?

00:06:36Did you forget you're supposed to marry Ashley?

00:06:38Daniel Thornton.

00:06:43My mother is gone because of you?

00:06:45Well, we had a little help from James Thornton.

00:06:49The most powerful man in THE Thornton family.

00:06:53Wait.

00:06:54I recognize that face from the newspaper.

00:06:57That was James Thornton.

00:06:59From the Thornton family.

00:07:01The family responsible for my mother's disappearance.

00:07:08Stop telling me what I can and cannot do.

00:07:10She saved my life.

00:07:11I owe it to her.

00:07:12Roll the hell up, Daniel.

00:07:14You need to remember your position as the heir to our family.

00:07:17And you need to divorce that girl.

00:07:19Now, I'm doing this to clean your mess up.

00:07:23Just leave us alone.

00:07:33Sorry about that.

00:07:34Is your name Daniel Thornton?

00:07:38Yeah.

00:07:41The Thornton family are responsible for the disappearance of my mother.

00:07:45I have been searching for her my entire life.

00:07:49Jess.

00:07:50No.

00:07:51I can explain.

00:07:52No, I'm not marrying Thornton.

00:07:53Wait, wait, wait. Jess, Jess.

00:07:55I'm not who you think I am.

00:07:56I have nothing to do with that family.

00:07:58Oh, really? Because your name is right here.

00:08:00On the marriage stick.

00:08:02Okay.

00:08:03I share the last name of Thornton.

00:08:05And I am not one of them.

00:08:06Thornton is a common name.

00:08:08Just an ordinary guy.

00:08:09Really? Well, I don't believe you.

00:08:11I saw you talking to James Thornton.

00:08:14Is he your father?

00:08:18Is he your father?

00:08:19No, he's not my father.

00:08:20He was threatening to drive you out of the country,

00:08:22and I was not going to have anything to do with it.

00:08:24Jess.

00:08:25I'm on your side.

00:08:27You're not one of them.

00:08:29I'm sorry.

00:08:31It's okay.

00:08:34Don't worry about it.

00:08:39Well, you have a nice apartment.

00:08:42Welcome.

00:08:44Is that your Labrador?

00:08:46That looks exactly like mine.

00:08:48I got mine as a Christmas present when I was nine.

00:08:50No way.

00:08:51I got mine as a Christmas present when I was nine.

00:08:53It's crazy.

00:08:54Jess, we're going to have to sleep in the same room together just in case immigration ambush us.

00:09:02Yeah, but are you sure you're okay sleeping on the carpet?

00:09:06I mean, you've done so much from me already, and I just-

00:09:09Jess, please.

00:09:10I insist.

00:09:11We made a deal, remember.

00:09:13I also want to thank you for giving me the chance to get rich.

00:09:19It's okay, Daniel.

00:09:21Let's go, let's go.

00:09:27I have it.

00:09:42And we could turn the money off into Smash Effect.

00:09:45No, no, no, no, no. I was, I was just passing by and just, do you need anything?

00:10:03I was joking. Uh, yeah, could you, uh, pass me the towel that's just hanging up next to the door?

00:10:10Uh, yeah, sure, sure.

00:10:15Oh my god. What? I just got fired. What?

00:10:31Uh, wait, Jess, let me go with you.

00:10:33Sam, please don't fire me.

00:10:50I'm sorry, Jess, but your immigration issue put us in a tough spot.

00:10:56I worked for this company for years.

00:10:59I'm sorry, Jess. There's nothing I can do. I'm sorry.

00:11:05Look who's here. Someone who just got fired. This suits you.

00:11:19It was you. I should have known you were behind this.

00:11:23I'm not gonna let you stay here and ruin things. I'm gonna take away everything you have, sister.

00:11:28Uh, you just made a big mistake, sir.

00:11:34Who are you?

00:11:36My name is Daniel Thornton, son of James Thornton, the chairman of Thornton Enterprise.

00:11:43Oh, uh, Mr. Thornton, uh, welcome.

00:11:48What brings you here?

00:11:50Well, I have some good news for you.

00:11:54Jessica Miller, she's just closed a billion dollar deal.

00:11:59Take a look.

00:12:10Oh my god.

00:12:16It's real.

00:12:16Oh, absolutely. With her hard work and dedication, she's made this possible.

00:12:23It's a real shame you're gonna lose such a valuable employee.

00:12:26Oh, uh, Mr. Thornton, um, I have made a huge mistake.

00:12:32Uh, Jessica will stay.

00:12:36Good.

00:12:38And, uh, make sure nobody knows we had this conversation.

00:12:42Jessica, you should have told me!

00:12:53What are you talking about, Sam?

00:12:54Jessica, you secured a huge deal for the company!

00:12:58Thank you!

00:13:00Did you not just fire her?

00:13:02I changed my mind.

00:13:04Jessica's saying, actually, she's being promoted to sales manager.

00:13:11Can't afford to lose someone as valuable as, like, her?

00:13:14Great.

00:13:16Thanks, Sam.

00:13:18This is not over.

00:13:20I can't believe it.

00:13:25Jessica kept her job, and she gets promoted.

00:13:28Don't worry, Lisa.

00:13:29I just spoke with James Thornton, and he had the lawyer change the will in our favor.

00:13:35Jessica will get nothing.

00:13:37Oh my god.

00:13:38That's fantastic.

00:13:39No way.

00:13:58Jessica, how's work?

00:14:01Did you get your job back?

00:14:02Daniel, I need a lawyer.

00:14:09Well, look who decided to show up.

00:14:15Too bad for you, Jess.

00:14:16Turns out Daddy's will left you nothing.

00:14:19I knew all along Robert wouldn't leave anything for this little, pathetic, bastard child.

00:14:26You are out of luck.

00:14:28Well, that's a lie.

00:14:30You showed me the will.

00:14:31And I signed the documents.

00:14:34I'm sorry, Jessica.

00:14:36I've just discovered a revised will.

00:14:37It, um, supports Kristen and Lisa's claims.

00:14:43Just a thought.

00:14:45Who is this?

00:14:46He's my lawyer.

00:14:47And a damn good one.

00:14:48Oh.

00:14:50You know, Jess, I didn't realize you had enough money to pay for a fancy little lawyer.

00:14:54You sleep with them?

00:14:57Patrick, can I have a word with you outside?

00:15:00Talk all you want.

00:15:02It won't change anything.

00:15:03It won't change anything.

00:15:07All right, Patrick.

00:15:12I'm going to keep this short and sweet.

00:15:14I know you changed the will to favor Kristen and Lisa.

00:15:17I know what you're talking about, Mr. Thornton.

00:15:20The revised will's solid.

00:15:22Ted found an email exchange with my father.

00:15:24Here, take a look.

00:15:27You've been caught, Patrick.

00:15:28Honor of the will, I'll report you to the Bar Association.

00:15:31You'll lose your license and any chance of practicing law again.

00:15:34Ted goes against your father's wishes.

00:15:37You don't understand the position he put me in.

00:15:39I'll deal with my father.

00:15:40Don't you worry about that.

00:15:42You just worry about doing the right thing.

00:15:49Um, this revised will is a fake.

00:15:52The original will stand.

00:15:54What the hell are you doing?

00:15:55He's doing the right thing.

00:15:59Jessica, you've got your inheritance back.

00:16:02Congratulations.

00:16:02Oh, my God.

00:16:07Patrick, do what you are supposed to do,

00:16:10or James will make sure you face the consequences.

00:16:15Don't listen to it, Patrick.

00:16:17I'll do it, James Thornton.

00:16:18Who the hell do you think you are?

00:16:21James Thornton is one of the most powerful men in this town.

00:16:25I sure can.

00:16:26Isn't that right, Patrick?

00:16:28Yes.

00:16:29The original will stands.

00:16:31No, you are crazy.

00:16:32No, I'm not.

00:16:34According to the original will,

00:16:36Jessica stands to inherit this mansion.

00:16:38Kristen, you're out.

00:16:40I think you two should leave.

00:16:42You homewrecker.

00:16:44Just like your mother.

00:16:45I will not allow violence.

00:16:49I didn't come here to argue over a house and assets.

00:16:54I came here to be recognized as an actual member of this family.

00:16:58Yeah, well, it's easy for you to say you're getting everything.

00:17:00You don't know how lucky you are, Lisa.

00:17:02You grew up with a father who loved you.

00:17:05I had none.

00:17:06And you took my mother away from me and I still don't know where she is.

00:17:12You two don't deserve this mansion.

00:17:15And I would rather give it away to a charity

00:17:17than to see the two of you living in it.

00:17:23You two should pack your things up.

00:17:29You have one week to leave this house.

00:17:30What the hell were you thinking?

00:17:41Sabotaging my plan?

00:17:42I was just doing the right thing.

00:17:44The right thing?

00:17:46Going against me?

00:17:48Kristen Miller has got no power anymore.

00:17:50Her game is over.

00:17:52I'm sure you didn't come all this way just to argue with me.

00:17:55So what do you want?

00:17:58I just want Jessica to get her mom back.

00:18:00I'll do whatever you want.

00:18:12Whatever I want?

00:18:14Like what exactly?

00:18:16I'll marry Ashley.

00:18:19You'll marry Ashley?

00:18:21Yeah.

00:18:22You're willing to do that?

00:18:24Yeah, I am.

00:18:26But only if she's reunited with her mother.

00:18:31Okay.

00:18:32Deal.

00:18:34I'll make the arrangements.

00:18:36So you're really in love with this one, huh?

00:18:38Yeah.

00:18:40I am.

00:18:41Okay, good.

00:18:42I sure hope she's looking.

00:18:46She is.

00:18:50What's wrong?

00:18:52We have...

00:18:53a guest.

00:18:56Mr. Thornton.

00:18:58Good to see you again.

00:19:00Interview time.

00:19:01Great.

00:19:02When did you two meet?

00:19:05Uh, we met at a friend's party two years ago.

00:19:10What do you say, Jessica?

00:19:12Huh?

00:19:13Oh, yeah, yeah.

00:19:15Mm-hmm.

00:19:16Interesting.

00:19:17And when did you decide to get married?

00:19:20Eight months ago.

00:19:20Six months ago.

00:19:22Six months or eight months?

00:19:23Which one is it?

00:19:24Yeah, eight months ago.

00:19:26Sorry, I just...

00:19:27Sorry, I'm always getting mixed up.

00:19:29Sure.

00:19:31Easy mistake to make.

00:19:33And what's your anniversary date?

00:19:35March 15th.

00:19:37March 15th?

00:19:3815th?

00:19:39All right.

00:19:44Uh, that's it?

00:19:46Yes, Mr. Thornton.

00:19:48I have everything I need.

00:19:50I'll report back to the judges.

00:19:51Oh, wait.

00:19:55Uh, this.

00:19:59How did we do in there?

00:20:03It was pretty bad.

00:20:06Look.

00:20:09I'm the son of James Thornton.

00:20:10I know who you are.

00:20:13Okay.

00:20:16You want to bribe me?

00:20:19Yes.

00:20:20I can't be bribed.

00:20:22Here's one million dollars.

00:20:28Two million dollars.

00:20:30Right.

00:20:34Three.

00:20:36Million dollars.

00:20:37It's tempting, but like I said, you can't bribe me.

00:20:40Please.

00:20:41Can you just give us one more a week to prepare?

00:20:44I really want to be with this woman.

00:20:46She means the world to me.

00:20:48She saved my life.

00:20:48I'm not going to take your money, but I'll give you one week.

00:20:52Make it count.

00:20:55Next time, I want to see some genuine affection between you two.

00:20:58If anything seems a bit off, your game's up.

00:21:01Of course.

00:21:02And one more thing.

00:21:05I can tell you two haven't had sex yet.

00:21:08I'm that good, Mr. Daniel.

00:21:11Don't try and fool me.

00:21:12She gave us another chance.

00:21:18Oh, thank God.

00:21:19We have one week to get our story straight.

00:21:23Thank you, Daniel.

00:21:25You've been very, very helpful today.

00:21:28Now, I wanted to make our first Christmas special, so I did a little digging and I found this.

00:21:52This tree is amazing.

00:21:53What happened?

00:22:02Let me have a look.

00:22:03Let me have a look.

00:22:03I have a

00:22:33festive gift

00:22:35for you too.

00:22:43Wow.

00:22:45Jess, you look

00:22:46gorgeous.

00:22:52And then I told him that's not

00:22:55how you negotiate.

00:22:56You did it!

00:22:57You did.

00:23:03And then I told him that's not

00:23:05how you negotiate.

00:23:07I don't know.

00:23:09I don't know.

00:23:11I don't know.

00:23:13I don't know.

00:23:15I don't know.

00:23:17I don't know.

00:23:19I don't know.

00:23:21I don't know.

00:23:23I don't know.

00:23:41I don't know.

00:23:43Maybe not.

00:24:00That is how you make a shape.

00:24:05You're a learning fan.

00:24:13I'm stuck.

00:24:22Hold on, I've got this.

00:24:43You're a learning fan.

00:25:00You're a learning fan.

00:25:04I've seen this before in the magazine, and it looks like one of those, um,

00:25:31two front and family watches. Is it real?

00:25:38Uh, no. It's fake.

00:25:42You wear a fake watch?

00:25:47Yeah.

00:25:48I'm so happy, Jess.

00:26:00There's also something I need to tell you about your mom.

00:26:07Oh, my God. Did I just sleep with Daniel last night? I told him it would only be a contract marriage.

00:26:14Morning. This is the most beautiful morning that I've ever had.

00:26:21Daniel, I'm...I'm so sorry about last night. It was...it wasn't supposed to happen.

00:26:28And I promise it'll never happen again.

00:26:35She didn't mean it.

00:26:36Oh, Jessica, last night was amazing.

00:26:42Uh, yeah, Jess, uh, I get it. It was, uh, it was a one-time thing.

00:26:49Yeah, just like, just a one-time thing.

00:26:50Yeah.

00:26:51Yeah.

00:26:52Anyway, it's, uh, your big day today.

00:26:58You're the new CEO of the Miller Empire.

00:27:05Thank you for the reminder.

00:27:06Now that you mention it, I'm really scared.

00:27:07Oh, no, Jess, I didn't mean it like that.

00:27:08You're the new CEO of the Miller Empire.

00:27:09Oh, thank you.

00:27:10Thank you for the reminder.

00:27:12Now that you mention it, I'm really scared.

00:27:14Oh, no, Jess, I didn't mean it like that.

00:27:17Uh, what I was meant to say is...I'm gonna help you.

00:27:18Oh, no, Jess, I didn't mean it like that.

00:27:23Uh, what I was meant to say is...I'm gonna help you.

00:27:28But now that you mention it, I'm really scared.

00:27:32Oh, no, Jess, I didn't mean it like that.

00:27:36What I was meant to say is, I'm going to help you.

00:27:46I don't know what to do, mother.

00:27:48That bitch is kicking us out.

00:27:49We still have a chance.

00:27:51That bastard child needs a unanimous vote from the board to be chosen as the next CEO.

00:27:56So we just need a board member to back us up.

00:28:00I will call Richard.

00:28:01Everyone respects Richard's vote.

00:28:03And I will make sure he doesn't vote for her.

00:28:06And I'll dig up all the dirt I can find on her.

00:28:09You go, girl.

00:28:20These clothes are beautiful.

00:28:24But, uh...

00:28:25Very expensive.

00:28:28Like this one.

00:28:29That is...

00:28:31$9,000.

00:28:33Jess, don't worry about it.

00:28:35It's on me.

00:28:37Look at it as, uh...

00:28:38My first gift to my wife.

00:28:40You know what?

00:28:41Daniel, I can't let you pay for this.

00:28:43Look, Jess, you're going to be a CEO.

00:28:45Which means you've got to look the part.

00:28:48Trust me.

00:28:49It's an investment.

00:28:50Mr. Thornton, welcome back.

00:28:54How can I succeed today?

00:28:55Come here a lot?

00:28:57Uh, no.

00:28:58Well, of course, Mr. Thornton owns this store.

00:29:01Uh...

00:29:01Jess, why don't you try this one on?

00:29:04You'll look great in it.

00:29:10Well, Jess, you look amazing.

00:29:14You think so?

00:29:15Yeah.

00:29:16This is exactly what a CEO would wear.

00:29:20Absolutely.

00:29:21Great choice.

00:29:22We'll take this one.

00:29:24Something in your mind?

00:29:27Well, it's probably nothing, but it's just...

00:29:29That clerk seemed very fond of you.

00:29:32Oh, uh...

00:29:34Being friendly is a part of my job.

00:29:37Okay.

00:29:44So that's how you got your lawyer, huh?

00:29:48Now that you mention it,

00:29:50maybe she was a little friendly.

00:29:52But we got a discount.

00:29:55Show on.

00:29:59What a slut.

00:30:09Trust me, Jess.

00:30:10You can do this.

00:30:11Yeah, but what if they don't accept me?

00:30:13They will.

00:30:14Trust me.

00:30:15Just speak from the heart.

00:30:17Show your true self.

00:30:19Look at you two little lovebirds.

00:30:24Pathetic.

00:30:27Ted, can we talk about this later?

00:30:30Okay.

00:30:32You go in.

00:30:33I'll meet you in there soon, okay?

00:30:41Good luck in there, sis.

00:30:44You're gonna need it.

00:30:46You don't have the votes.

00:30:47I know my background doesn't seem very typical of a CEO,

00:30:54but I built myself from the bottom up here.

00:30:57Miller Corporation is a leader in tech and services,

00:31:03reaching industries from healthcare to energy.

00:31:06We have over 10,000 employees worldwide who've worked hard to build this company from the ground up.

00:31:15And I was one of them.

00:31:16I know them.

00:31:17And I believe that I can help lead this company to become everyone's company.

00:31:24Let's proceed to the vote.

00:31:26All in favor?

00:31:27Robert lost his damn mind.

00:31:33He picked his secret child to be the CEO, only because of his guilty conscience.

00:31:39Richard, if I may...

00:31:40I'm not done talking.

00:31:42You can't lead us.

00:31:44And you're not getting my vote.

00:31:47Richard, if I may speak...

00:31:48Go ahead.

00:31:50But I won't change my mind.

00:31:51Sorry for interrupting everyone,

00:31:56but I have something important to share with you all today.

00:31:59Who the hell are you?

00:32:00Well, Richard, I'm the person who's going to expose you.

00:32:04What did you just say?

00:32:06How do I say this?

00:32:08Uh, you're a sex pervert.

00:32:11What?

00:32:14You see, everyone,

00:32:16this file contains multiple sexual harassment lawsuits

00:32:21against Richard over the past 30 years.

00:32:25Some of them also have ongoing lawsuits.

00:32:28They're all just allegations,

00:32:30and they've all been settled.

00:32:31I'm innocent.

00:32:32They've also got in contact with some of the victims,

00:32:34and they're willing to come forward and testify.

00:32:36Actually...

00:32:36I have not finished yet.

00:32:38You're also stealing money from the company,

00:32:41and we have the financial records to prove it.

00:32:48The evidence is clear.

00:32:51He's guilty.

00:32:53Okay, then.

00:32:54Let's all vote for Richard Donnell's immediate suspension.

00:32:58All in favor?

00:33:03We have 15 votes.

00:33:06The board has decided.

00:33:08Richard Donnell is officially removed from his position.

00:33:10Security, escort him out immediately.

00:33:14I know my way.

00:33:20And all in favor of appointing Jessica Miller as the new CEO.

00:33:25I'm sorry I was late.

00:33:42I had to make sure I had enough evidence to nail him.

00:33:44No, don't be sorry, Daniel.

00:33:45That was so worth the wait.

00:33:47Good.

00:33:48This is not over.

00:33:52You'll see.

00:33:53How's packing going, Lisa?

00:33:54You're about to be a victim, sir.

00:33:57Bye-bye.

00:34:02She won again, that bitch.

00:34:04I know.

00:34:05It's so unfair.

00:34:06Do we have a guest?

00:34:08Lisa, honey.

00:34:09I've been trying to reach you.

00:34:11Why haven't you returned my calls?

00:34:13I've been busy.

00:34:15Busy.

00:34:16Dealing with Jessica.

00:34:18How did you know?

00:34:19Oh, I know.

00:34:20And I think I know how to help you take it down.

00:34:23Again.

00:34:24No use to me anymore, Adrian.

00:34:26I only needed you to help me get rid of Jessica.

00:34:30To the new CEO of the Miller Empire.

00:34:35Well, I couldn't have done it without you, Daniel.

00:34:37I also have another Christmas surprise for you.

00:34:41Who are you calling?

00:34:46Is it?

00:34:47Yes, Jess.

00:34:48It's your mother, Clara.

00:34:50Oh, my God.

00:34:51Mom.

00:34:52Oh, Jessica, you're a grown woman now.

00:34:55The Miller family threatened to kill you, Jess.

00:34:58I had no option but to vanish.

00:35:02Oh, Mom, it's okay.

00:35:03It's okay.

00:35:04You didn't do anything wrong.

00:35:06I'll bring you back into the country.

00:35:08I promise.

00:35:08Daniel, how did you find her?

00:35:12I have a few powerful friends.

00:35:14They did me a favor.

00:35:14But I'll leave you two alone.

00:35:17Two more, please.

00:35:31Daniel.

00:35:34Adrian.

00:35:35Long time no see, buddy.

00:35:36Oh, my God.

00:35:38How long has it been?

00:35:39Ten years.

00:35:40Ten years.

00:35:41Oh, my God.

00:35:43The last time I must have seen you was at law school.

00:35:47Yep.

00:35:48Go Reds.

00:35:50Go Reds.

00:35:51What are you doing here?

00:35:54Just in town to run some errands.

00:35:56Just about to come in for a quick bite.

00:35:58Nice, man.

00:35:59Nice.

00:36:00I saw your date earlier.

00:36:02She looks pretty.

00:36:03Yeah, my wife.

00:36:05Your wife?

00:36:06Yeah, Jess.

00:36:07You're married?

00:36:08Yes.

00:36:09Yeah, you have to introduce me to her.

00:36:11Come on.

00:36:11Let's go say hi.

00:36:12Come and say hello.

00:36:13It's good to see you, bud.

00:36:14Good to see you too, man.

00:36:15Jess, I wanted you to meet an old friend of mine.

00:36:19Adrian, this is Jess.

00:36:20Jess, this is Adrian.

00:36:22We went to law school together.

00:36:28I don't want to see him.

00:36:33I don't want to see him.

00:36:37You two know each other.

00:36:39Yes, Daniel.

00:36:40I was her first boyfriend.

00:36:45Come on, Jess.

00:36:47Don't you miss me.

00:36:48I don't want to see you anymore.

00:36:51You know you're still in love with me, Jess.

00:36:54No, I don't.

00:36:58I think you should leave, Adrian.

00:37:00Okay, Daniel.

00:37:02Relax.

00:37:03Now.

00:37:09I'm leaving.

00:37:13She knows she's lying.

00:37:15I should have known.

00:37:26What else?

00:37:28Adrian also knew she knew Jessica.

00:37:30Actually, he's the one who sabotaged Jessica's immigration paperwork.

00:37:35It caused all this trouble.

00:37:39That son of a bitch.

00:37:42We need to win this war.

00:37:44Do whatever it takes.

00:37:44Daniel?

00:37:55Sorry.

00:37:56Did I wake you?

00:37:57No.

00:37:58Can...

00:37:58Can you join me in bed, please?

00:38:03You sure?

00:38:06I just...

00:38:07I wanted to apologize for earlier, the restaurant.

00:38:19I got a bit carried away.

00:38:21Jess, you don't need to apologize.

00:38:24Adrian's an asshole.

00:38:26He's just trying to do it to get under your skin.

00:38:27I didn't care for Adrian once, but he just destroyed everything we had.

00:38:35I want you to know that I'm here because of you.

00:38:40And you're the only one who I love.

00:38:46No one else.

00:38:47No one else.

00:38:59I love you too, Jess.

00:39:01And I'm not going anywhere.

00:39:02Good morning, husband.

00:39:18Morning, wife.

00:39:21Are you ready for your big day as the new CEO?

00:39:23If only you were with me.

00:39:25You're going to do great today.

00:39:46Jess, here's your coffee.

00:40:01What's wrong?

00:40:02Oh, it's just...

00:40:03It's this job.

00:40:04It's all so new to me.

00:40:06Okay.

00:40:07Calm down.

00:40:08Remember, you're the CEO.

00:40:10Which means you're the boss.

00:40:12Yeah, but I don't know how to be a boss.

00:40:15Hey, Jess.

00:40:18Look at you, sitting in the big chair now.

00:40:21Oh, Giovanna, I am so happy you're here.

00:40:25Aw.

00:40:27You must be Daniel.

00:40:29Jessica's been talking about you for days.

00:40:33I'm flattered.

00:40:34I really wish you could be here with me, G.

00:40:36It's exhausting.

00:40:38Oh, at least you have a job, Jess.

00:40:40I've been looking for work for the past two months.

00:40:44Jess?

00:40:44Do you like Deanna being here?

00:40:51Of course.

00:40:52We've been besties since forever.

00:40:55Yeah, what kind of question is that?

00:40:57Well, why don't you use your CEO power and hire Deanna?

00:41:04Oh, I don't...

00:41:05I know what you mean.

00:41:06I don't understand.

00:41:07How would you like to come work for me?

00:41:13Of course.

00:41:15We're seeing.

00:41:16Okay, then.

00:41:17My first order as a CEO...

00:41:21Giana, you are hired as my personal assistant.

00:41:27Oh, my God, Jess.

00:41:28Thank you so much.

00:41:29See?

00:41:31Being a boss is easy.

00:41:33You can do whatever you want.

00:41:34Oh, my God.

00:41:43What's wrong?

00:41:45The company's stock prices are dropping like crazy.

00:41:48What is happening?

00:41:49This isn't wrong.

00:41:52The stock's getting dumped.

00:41:54Well, well, well.

00:41:56Looks like things aren't going so well.

00:41:59What did you do, Lisa?

00:42:00I asked Richard and some of the other investors to sell their stocks.

00:42:06The board members are not going to be happy about the stock prices, Jessica.

00:42:09What do you want?

00:42:11Resign as CEO or I will destroy this company.

00:42:16No way.

00:42:17Okay.

00:42:19Then I will destroy this company.

00:42:22Jessica, the board members are asking to meet with you.

00:42:25They're angry.

00:42:30What are you going to do, Jess?

00:42:33Okay, I'll meet with the board.

00:42:35Wait, Jess.

00:42:37Don't go.

00:42:38Take a seat.

00:42:40What is it?

00:42:41Lisa, are you sure the stock prices are going down?

00:42:46Because to me, they seem to be going up and up.

00:42:50That's impossible.

00:42:51You would need at least a billion dollars.

00:42:54I guess anything's possible these days.

00:42:57God damn it!

00:42:59God, she's annoying.

00:43:04No, you must be my lucky star.

00:43:08Daniel.

00:43:09I know who you are, Daniel.

00:43:20You're the son of James Thornton.

00:43:22How did you find out?

00:43:24My identity is meant to be a secret.

00:43:26I used to work for your father.

00:43:27Please don't tell Jess.

00:43:29I'll pay you.

00:43:30How much do you want?

00:43:31I don't want your money.

00:43:32I care for my friend.

00:43:35Actually, your father fired me because I tried to help Jessica.

00:43:38I'm sorry, Giana.

00:43:40It's okay.

00:43:42I just want to know why.

00:43:45She hates my family.

00:43:47I have to lie to her.

00:43:48She hates your family, but she loves you.

00:43:52I can see that.

00:43:54You really think so?

00:43:56Yes.

00:43:58I love her too.

00:44:00She's the best thing that's ever happened to me.

00:44:04That's good to hear.

00:44:06Please protect her.

00:44:15Daniel.

00:44:17It's my mom.

00:44:19Adrian threatened her.

00:44:20Adrian threatened my mom on the phone.

00:44:27He said he was going to block her from entering the country.

00:44:31What should we do?

00:44:33Jess, I don't want you to worry about it.

00:44:36I'm going to make sure your mom gets here safely.

00:44:50Look her on the first flight out tomorrow.

00:45:00Got it, boss.

00:45:01She'll be here in town the day after tomorrow.

00:45:03Good.

00:45:11Jess has been taken care of.

00:45:13Your mom's going to be here the day after tomorrow.

00:45:16Thank you, Daniel.

00:45:17But I'm still scared.

00:45:23I just, I need a day off.

00:45:25I love the sound of that.

00:45:27What do you have in mind?

00:45:29I was thinking.

00:45:33I want to buy a house.

00:45:35Do you like this place?

00:45:48It's amazing.

00:45:50But, Jess, I appreciate the gesture.

00:45:53But you don't need to buy me a house.

00:45:57No.

00:45:58No.

00:45:58I insist.

00:46:00You have done so much to help me.

00:46:03Besides, we can live together here.

00:46:06Mr. Thornton.

00:46:08Hi.

00:46:08Your father is here.

00:46:10Are you meeting here?

00:46:11Well, I've never met your parents.

00:46:20So, I'm pretty excited to meet an in-law.

00:46:23Oh, is, is that him?

00:46:28Come on, let's go say hi.

00:46:30Jess, wait, uh, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.

00:46:34Um, I might not have told my dad about you and our marriage.

00:46:39Why?

00:46:41Uh, because he has a heart condition.

00:46:44I think it's best you stay here.

00:46:48Okay.

00:46:50I'll just stay here then.

00:46:55Good.

00:47:00Dad.

00:47:01Come on.

00:47:02Daniel, what the hell?

00:47:04Issac is here.

00:47:05She can't see her face.

00:47:06Don't take them off.

00:47:09I want to talk to you about Ashley, Daniel.

00:47:11Why hasn't Daniel told his father about me and our wedding?

00:47:19Ashley, really, not today.

00:47:23And what is this shirt you're wearing?

00:47:26Your mother insisted I wear it in this charity event in the morning ride.

00:47:32Said it makes me look more grounded.

00:47:35I'm approachable.

00:47:39And don't go changing our subject.

00:47:40I want to discuss our agreement.

00:47:43I give you Clara and you marry Ashley.

00:47:50Why does he look so nervous?

00:47:53Am I not good enough?

00:47:58Do we have to talk about this right now?

00:48:01I held up my end of the bargain, Daniel.

00:48:03I want this deal done now.

00:48:06Actually, Clara isn't safe yet.

00:48:08At least a male of white trying to be sabotaging everything.

00:48:11This is why you don't mess with the male family.

00:48:15You should have left it alone.

00:48:16All I'm asking is just a few more days.

00:48:19Ashley is coming to town in a few days.

00:48:21What?

00:48:24Jess!

00:48:25Jess!

00:48:34Dad, this is Jess.

00:48:36Jess, this is Dad.

00:48:39You can call him Jimmy.

00:48:40Jimmy?

00:48:41Hmm?

00:48:41I'm Jimmy, sweetie.

00:48:46It's lovely to meet you, Jimmy.

00:48:48And can I just say, that is a lovely Hawaiian shirt.

00:48:52It really, really suits you.

00:48:54Well, thank you, Jessica.

00:48:56It's one I'm fond of.

00:48:58So, who is Ashley?

00:49:02I heard you guys talking about her earlier.

00:49:05Oh, she's just an old family friend.

00:49:10They grew up and went to law school together.

00:49:13And she had Daniel's first kiss.

00:49:17Oh.

00:49:19Her wedding is approaching soon, and I'd like Daniel to attend.

00:49:24Dad!

00:49:25I'm reminiscing about the good old days.

00:49:27No, it's fine, honestly.

00:49:29It's lovely to hear about Daniel's childhood and more about his life.

00:49:33You bastard child!

00:49:39Well, well.

00:49:41What do we have here?

00:49:43You think you can afford this place?

00:49:46You're about to lose this battle and be out on the streets soon.

00:49:51Who's this clown?

00:49:55Looks like he belongs in a circus.

00:49:57How dare you, Kristen!

00:49:59How do you know my name?

00:50:01And don't you dare call me by my first name.

00:50:04That's enough!

00:50:07Don't talk to my father like that.

00:50:08He's your father.

00:50:13How does it feel to be a father of such a loser?

00:50:18Don't talk to my family like that.

00:50:22Your family?

00:50:23Your family suck, Jessica.

00:50:26Especially your mother.

00:50:28The home-wrecking tramp.

00:50:31A whore.

00:50:32Oh!

00:50:33Oh!

00:50:39Your family suck, Jessica.

00:50:43Especially your mother.

00:50:45The home-wrecking tramp.

00:50:48A whore.

00:50:49Oh!

00:50:50Damn!

00:50:51How dare you slap me!

00:50:58That is enough, Kristen.

00:51:01You're not gonna lay a hand on my wife.

00:51:06Ladies, you need to live.

00:51:08Now.

00:51:09You can't throw us out.

00:51:10We're buyers.

00:51:11We're not going anywhere.

00:51:12The honor of this property has banned you from coming here.

00:51:15You need to live now or I will call security.

00:51:20You will regret this.

00:51:24I've heard that a thousand times.

00:51:26Now leave.

00:51:31Thank you, Jessica.

00:51:39You stood up for me.

00:51:40Well, we're a family, Jimmy.

00:51:43That's what I'm supposed to do.

00:51:48Well.

00:51:49I appreciate it.

00:51:51You're a nice girl.

00:51:54You found a good wife, son.

00:51:57Dad.

00:51:59About Ashy's wedding.

00:52:00I don't think I'm gonna be able to make it.

00:52:03I'll look into it.

00:52:04I'll speak to her about it.

00:52:05Oh, no, no, no, no.

00:52:07Daniel can still attend.

00:52:08It's not a problem.

00:52:10Tess, I just want to focus on you and I.

00:52:13I'm not the jealous type.

00:52:15Plus, I don't want you to miss your first crush's wave.

00:52:20Well, you decide, Daniel.

00:52:22Oh, there's a long party.

00:52:25You two want to come?

00:52:26It's in three hours.

00:52:29Yeah.

00:52:30Dad, we'll go.

00:52:32Great.

00:52:32Well, this place is extremely high class.

00:52:50Well, my dad has a few rich friends.

00:52:54And James Thornton is here.

00:53:01I know you don't want to see him.

00:53:03But, Jess, my dad's here.

00:53:05He's gonna join us later.

00:53:07Okay.

00:53:07The bidding's about to start.

00:53:15Oh, the bitch is here.

00:53:17I know.

00:53:18Don't worry.

00:53:19We can teach him a lesson.

00:53:20Yeah, how?

00:53:21Let's see if Daniel can handle a little humiliation.

00:53:26With money.

00:53:27Yeah, with money?

00:53:27What money?

00:53:28I haven't gotten my inheritance back yet.

00:53:30Yeah, I know.

00:53:31Your mother spoke to Richard.

00:53:32He said he's willing to donate us some cash if we make Jessica look ugly.

00:53:36Oh.

00:53:39You're the best.

00:53:42I know.

00:53:47Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to this evening's auction.

00:54:18Where did they get that money from?

00:54:20I don't know.

00:54:21But I'm definitely trying to humiliate you here.

00:54:23Really?

00:54:24But I don't even care.

00:54:25About this bit.

00:54:27$5 million.

00:55:02Awesome.

00:55:04It's $10 million.

00:55:05Once, twice, sold.

00:55:09Two gentlemen there.

00:55:17Where did you get that money from?

00:55:20Well?

00:55:21Do you remember me telling you about I have a powerful friend?

00:55:24Yeah, the one who helped me find my mother.

00:55:29Jessica?

00:55:30James Thornton.

00:55:32In the flesh.

00:55:33Or Mrs. Thornton.

00:55:35I want to apologize to you.

00:55:38I am truly sorry for everything I did to you and your mother.

00:55:42But I'm trying my best to make amends.

00:55:45Well, I don't know what to say.

00:55:50Jess, I know it's a lot to handle.

00:55:51You've just got to trust me.

00:55:52Yeah, but why didn't you just tell me in the first place, Daniel?

00:55:56Jess.

00:55:57Jessica.

00:55:58Don't follow me.

00:56:04Oh, this could get interesting.

00:56:07Uh-huh.

00:56:16Oh.

00:56:19Look who's alone.

00:56:21No, just leave me alone.

00:56:23You're never going to win against James Thornton.

00:56:25He's my mother's best friend.

00:56:27And you're going to lose everything.

00:56:29Poor babe.

00:56:30Still played by the big boys.

00:56:31Yes.

00:56:32James Thornton and his son have been playing you all along.

00:56:37But what did you just say?

00:56:39James Thornton and his son?

00:56:41Wait, Jess, you didn't know?

00:56:43Daniel Thornton is his son.

00:56:47Oh, my God.

00:56:49I didn't know that.

00:56:50Now that I do.

00:56:53That's enough.

00:56:56He's mean.

00:56:57Hey, Mr. Thornton.

00:56:58Crown Prince said to the Thornton family.

00:57:09This man's been lying to you all along.

00:57:12Poor little girl's got no one to trust.

00:57:14Both of you.

00:57:15Get out of here.

00:57:19Hey.

00:57:20Hey.

00:57:21Hey.

00:57:22Hey.

00:57:23Hey.

00:57:27Jess, I've been trying to tell you.

00:57:28Am I a joker to you?

00:57:30No.

00:57:31What do you mean?

00:57:32You and your father.

00:57:35You've been playing me this whole time.

00:57:38No.

00:57:38I've been standing by your side all the time, Jess.

00:57:40I can't trust you.

00:57:43You lied to me.

00:57:45You're right.

00:57:47You're right.

00:57:50I have been hiding things from you.

00:57:55You know what I haven't told you yet?

00:57:58Another big secret.

00:58:01Are you sure you want to hear this?

00:58:02The other big secret is, the first time we met isn't what you think it is.

00:58:14It was five years ago.

00:58:16Five years ago?

00:58:17Yes.

00:58:19At a party.

00:58:21I was drunk and I fell in a pool.

00:58:23I died, too.

00:58:34Oh, thank god you're alive.

00:58:37I was drowning and you saved my life.

00:58:41But you won't remember that.

00:58:44But I will forever be grateful for what you did for me that day.

00:58:47But that...

00:58:48That was you?

00:58:51Yes.

00:58:51My father forbid me from seeing you

00:58:54But I didn't care

00:58:55I confronted him

00:58:58You can't tell me what to do, Dad

00:59:00You can't stop me from seeing her

00:59:02I'm doing what's best for you, Daniel

00:59:03That girl and all her family are nothing but trouble

00:59:08And then he decided to tell me about everything he did to you and your mom

00:59:11And I felt so guilty

00:59:13It's okay

00:59:14I was ashamed to approach you

00:59:19I just didn't know how to face you without making things worse

00:59:22And I thought the best thing to do was just meet you

00:59:24No, I know

00:59:27And then I heard about you being deported and I just couldn't let that happen

00:59:30Well

00:59:31I saved you

00:59:34And you saved me

00:59:38I guess we just belong together

00:59:42Ew, corny

00:59:47But just

00:59:50No more secrets

00:59:53Okay

00:59:55I promise

00:59:57No more secrets

01:00:00You're up early

01:00:17Yeah

01:00:18I'm gonna go pick your mom up from the airport

01:00:21Better sooner than later

01:00:22No

01:00:24Giannis just texted me

01:00:28She said that I have my first weekly exec meeting this morning

01:00:32I should postpone it

01:00:34No

01:00:34You should definitely go to that

01:00:36You need to look good in front of your board

01:00:38Really?

01:00:39Yeah

01:00:39I'm gonna go pick your mom up from the airport

01:00:41And I'll bring her straight to the office

01:00:43Thanks

01:00:44You're the best

01:00:46Well, that went better than I thought

01:00:52Someone underestimates yourself, Jess

01:00:54You did great

01:00:55Heya, Jess

01:01:00What are you doing here?

01:01:06What are you doing here?

01:01:08I just wanted to share with you some interesting facts about your dear husband, Daniel Thornton

01:01:12Can you wait outside a moment?

01:01:15Can you wait outside a moment?

01:01:17Thank you

01:01:18Okay

01:01:19I'm telling you now

01:01:21Whatever bad, made up facts that you've come to tell me about Daniel

01:01:25So it will work

01:01:26Because Daniel already told me everything

01:01:29Everything?

01:01:30Are you so sure?

01:01:32Yeah

01:01:33Him and his father came clean about everything

01:01:36There is nothing more to have

01:01:37And did they also tell you Daniel is supposed to marry his childhood sweetheart?

01:01:41What?

01:01:42Ashley Wimbledon

01:01:43Heiress to the famous Wimbledon family

01:01:46Ring any bells?

01:01:47Ashley

01:01:52Ashley

01:01:54Who is Ashley?

01:01:56I heard you guys talking about her earlier

01:01:58Oh, she's just an old childhood friend

01:02:03They grew up and went to law school together

01:02:05Oh

01:02:06And she had Daniel's first kiss

01:02:12He did mention Ashley

01:02:17He did?

01:02:18Yeah, but he's not gonna marry her

01:02:20I remember that conversation

01:02:22Daniel's picking my mother up from the airport himself

01:02:28I'll be seeing her soon

01:02:31What are you laughing about?

01:02:34Who?

01:02:38Daniel wants to bring her back, babe

01:02:41You're not gonna see her

01:02:45After years of separation with your mother

01:02:48Daniel didn't let you go along with him to meet with her?

01:02:52And what kind of a husband does that?

01:02:54I had an early meeting this morning

01:02:55And Daniel didn't want me to worry

01:02:58So easily manipulated, Jess

01:03:02Just like old times

01:03:04Yeah, well

01:03:06I don't believe a word you say

01:03:09Daniel isn't gonna bring her back

01:03:11Care to find out together?

01:03:21Are you sure everything is taken care of?

01:03:23Yes

01:03:24You're free to live in this country

01:03:26Clara

01:03:27I also want to apologize for everything you went through years ago

01:03:31I'm deeply sorry

01:03:32Well, you did bring me back here

01:03:34Right now, I just want to see my daughter

01:03:37Well done, sir

01:03:38Not so fast, Danny boy

01:03:43You're too late, Lisa

01:03:45Clara's here to claim Robert's inheritance back

01:03:47Oh, I don't think so

01:03:50Agents, do you think?

01:03:51Wait

01:03:52What?

01:03:53This is a mistake

01:03:54No

01:03:55Clara's got past customs

01:03:56She can stay

01:03:57Sweetheart, you really think those little documents can stop this?

01:04:00I don't think so

01:04:01Back off, Lisa

01:04:02Watch it

01:04:03Pretty boy

01:04:04Jess

01:04:05Jess

01:04:06Mom

01:04:07Mom

01:04:08What are you doing?

01:04:09Jess

01:04:10Where are they taking my mother?

01:04:11Mom, I will bring you back, I promise

01:04:12Just stay strong

01:04:13Sis, it looks like you've been screwed by the Thorntons again

01:04:16Adrian, you sabotage this

01:04:18You'll pay for this

01:04:20See, babe

01:04:21I told you he's not bringing it back

01:04:23You said everything was taken care of

01:04:25Jess, it's not me

01:04:26It's them

01:04:27You're lying, Daniel

01:04:28Why don't you ask him about that thing we talked about?

01:04:30Jess

01:04:32Jess

01:04:34He said that you were gonna marry Ashley

01:04:37Okay, so it's true

01:04:38Jess

01:04:39Can we just

01:04:40Talk about this?

01:04:41No

01:04:42No, no, no, no, no

01:04:43Thing is, Daniel

01:04:44You promised me

01:04:45No more secrets

01:04:46I can't trust you anymore

01:04:48Jess

01:04:49Can you...

01:04:50It's just...

01:04:51Looks like you lost, Daniel

01:04:52You'll never get in the back

01:05:02Oh, thank God you're alive

01:05:04Oh, thank God you're alive

01:05:17Oh, thank God you're alive

01:05:20Oh, thank God you're alive

01:05:22Oh, thank God you're alive

01:05:23Ted, what's the problem with Clara?

01:05:46Her paperwork was flawless.

01:05:48You're right, boss.

01:05:49I check her customers in the U.S. C.I.S.

01:05:51The U.S. C.I.S. confirmed that she illegally entered the country and killed her.

01:05:56What is it, boss?

01:05:59Agents, do you think?

01:06:01Wait.

01:06:02What?

01:06:02This is a mistake.

01:06:03No.

01:06:05Jess.

01:06:06Jess, baby!

01:06:07Mom!

01:06:10The ICE agents weren't real.

01:06:13They were hired by Adrian and Lisa to kidnap Clara.

01:06:15Hold on a sec.

01:06:19You're right, boss.

01:06:20If we found out those people who want to, what should we do?

01:06:24I need to find out where they took them.

01:06:26Use all our contacts.

01:06:28I'm not going to let them get away with this.

01:06:30On it, boss.

01:06:39Well, well, well, Clara.

01:06:41But you didn't expect to see me again, did you?

01:06:44We finally have what it takes to get it all back?

01:06:47You don't look at me like that.

01:06:49You disgust me.

01:06:56Jess, we need to talk.

01:06:58I don't want to talk to you.

01:06:59It's about your mom.

01:07:00I think she was kidnapped by Adrian and Lisa's people.

01:07:02The ICE agents weren't real.

01:07:03What are you talking about?

01:07:07I spoke to Ted.

01:07:08He told me that Clara legally came into the country.

01:07:12It was a setup.

01:07:13Do you actually expect me to believe that?

01:07:16After all the lies, you're so full of shit, Daniel!

01:07:19Hello, bastard child.

01:07:28Yes, we have your mother.

01:07:30And if you ever want to see her again,

01:07:32follow the directions to the address that we just sent you.

01:07:35And don't bring anyone.

01:07:37Especially Daniel.

01:07:41Let me come with you.

01:07:42No, they want me alone.

01:07:44I don't want to be sure.

01:07:44Jess?

01:07:45Don't follow me!

01:07:46I will not let you do this alone.

01:07:54Mom?

01:07:56Bastard child, over here.

01:07:58You let her go.

01:07:59This has gone on far enough.

01:08:01I'm not so fast, sis.

01:08:03This is only the beginning.

01:08:08You sign this.

01:08:11We let her go.

01:08:13And what is it?

01:08:14An agreement signing everything over to us.

01:08:18The house.

01:08:19Company.

01:08:21Everything.

01:08:30Signed.

01:08:32Now let her go.

01:08:33God, you are so nice, sis!

01:08:36Now what more do you want?

01:08:40Get down on your knees and show that you know your place.

01:08:43Get down on your knees and show that you know your place.

01:08:51Wait.

01:08:56That's better.

01:09:04Now bark like a dog.

01:09:09Come on.

01:09:10That's enough, Kristen.

01:09:20We're getting out here, Mom.

01:09:28Let's get her out of here.

01:09:30Come on.

01:09:30Let's go.

01:09:32Come on, take her!

01:09:36Mom!

01:09:37Mom!

01:09:37Mom, you've finished this!

01:09:39Mom, we've got to go!

01:09:40Come on!

01:09:42Daniel!

01:09:47Jess.

01:09:50No, don't.

01:09:51Don't try and talk.

01:09:52The police, they're on their way.

01:09:53Jess.

01:09:55I'm so sorry.

01:09:56Why are you apologizing?

01:09:58Just don't move.

01:10:00Well, the doctor said it was nothing serious, so you'll be out of here soon.

01:10:14Jess, I just want to apologize.

01:10:16I am so sorry.

01:10:18Daniel, what are you apologizing for?

01:10:21You saved my mom.

01:10:22You saved my mom.

01:10:23You saved us.

01:10:26Hello again, Mr. Thornton.

01:10:28Officer, you're here.

01:10:30Yes.

01:10:31You promised me last week we'd get that interview done.

01:10:36Officer, my husband is injured.

01:10:39He's literally lying in bed.

01:10:41Well, that doesn't change the requirements.

01:10:44Jess, it's okay.

01:10:46We can do the interview.

01:10:52We can do the interview.

01:10:55Are you insane?

01:10:57We haven't rehearsed this.

01:10:59Jess, when you see we've been rehearsing this whole Christmas, there's no better time

01:11:05to do this.

01:11:06You're right.

01:11:10We're ready, officer.

01:11:12Let's start with the question I asked you last week.

01:11:15When did you two first meet?

01:11:16Five years and four months ago.

01:11:19I don't understand.

01:11:21Last time you said it was six months ago, and the other one said it was eight months ago.

01:11:25We lied, officer.

01:11:28But it was five years ago.

01:11:30At a pool party.

01:11:32And we had our first kiss when we first met.

01:11:33It sounds pretty far-fetched.

01:11:39But for some reason, I want to give you two the benefit of the doubt.

01:11:46It sounds pretty far-fetched.

01:11:49But for some reason, I want to give you two the benefit of the doubt.

01:11:54Daniel risked his life to save me and my mother.

01:11:57There's nothing more that he needs to do to prove his love for me.

01:12:01One last question.

01:12:03How frequently have you two spent the night together in the past week?

01:12:13Relax.

01:12:14I can tell it's been at least three times.

01:12:18Right, well, that's my interview done.

01:12:20You two are quite the couple.

01:12:22Thank you, officer.

01:12:23Daniel.

01:12:25Daniel.

01:12:26She's coming.

01:12:27Who's coming?

01:12:28Who's coming?

01:12:32Your fiancée.

01:12:37That's who.

01:12:41Your fiancée.

01:12:44That's who.

01:12:45Ashley.

01:12:46I guess I'm not done yet.

01:12:48You betrayed my family's trust, Daniel.

01:12:52Ashley.

01:12:53Please.

01:12:54Can't we talk about this?

01:12:56So you're Jessica Miller, huh?

01:12:59Adrian's told me all about you.

01:13:01I don't know what Adrian told you, but it's not what you think.

01:13:06Daniel was supposed to marry me.

01:13:09And then you just waltzed in and ruined everything.

01:13:13Ashley.

01:13:14Our engagement was long over before Jessica came to the picture.

01:13:17Oh, I see.

01:13:22You think this is over.

01:13:26I'm the heiress of the Wimbledon family.

01:13:30The Thornton name is as good as ruined.

01:13:34You can't do that, Ashley.

01:13:40Watch me.

01:13:41You're not the only heiress here.

01:13:51I own Miller Empire.

01:13:54And if you come for the Thorntons,

01:13:57the Miller Empire is going to come for you so hard.

01:14:03You've got guts, Jessica.

01:14:09I like you.

01:14:13I gotta tell you, I didn't expect that.

01:14:16This is so much better than watching TV.

01:14:18Glad to see you've replaced me with someone with a little fire, Daniel.

01:14:27I always knew Daniel didn't love me,

01:14:29but he was too afraid of his father.

01:14:33to ever go after his true love.

01:14:35But I guess I'm happy

01:14:38that he's found someone who wants the same things as him.

01:14:43So,

01:14:45that's it?

01:14:48That's it.

01:14:52Enjoy your happy ending, darling.

01:14:59Andrea,

01:14:59bring the car around.

01:15:01Did that actually just happen?

01:15:06Yeah.

01:15:07Wow.

01:15:08You two,

01:15:09really don't let anyone,

01:15:11or anything,

01:15:12get in the way of true love.

01:15:14Let's see that, Tom.

01:15:18This is all your fault, Mom.

01:15:19If you wouldn't have been so reckless,

01:15:20then maybe you wouldn't be in this mess.

01:15:22Don't put all the blame on me.

01:15:23You're just as much a part of this as I am.

01:15:25Where is Adrian?

01:15:27She'll be here by now.

01:15:27Miss me?

01:15:31Where have you been?

01:15:32Just tying up a few loose ends.

01:15:34Don't worry about it.

01:15:35Everything's going according to plan.

01:15:37Plan?

01:15:38What plan?

01:15:39Everything's falling apart.

01:15:40What did you do, Adrian?

01:15:54Well, me, myself,

01:15:55I done nothing illegal.

01:15:57You two, on the other hand,

01:15:59that's a different story.

01:16:00You set us up!

01:16:02I'm just ensuring my own safety.

01:16:04After all,

01:16:06I kept my hands clean.

01:16:13Ow!

01:16:13You're not going to get away with this, asshole!

01:16:16I already have.

01:16:17I remember when this place was filled with warmth and laughter.

01:16:28Used to be a real family home back then.

01:16:31Then things just went south.

01:16:34Things will be fine again, Mom, I promise.

01:16:37We'll turn this into a good family house.

01:16:39No more hatred.

01:16:41No more backstabbing.

01:16:42I missed you every single day, Jess.

01:16:45I'm so sorry for everything both of us had to go through.

01:16:52Jessica?

01:16:53Wow.

01:16:55I am so sorry

01:16:57for everything

01:16:58that I've done to you both.

01:17:00I was wrong.

01:17:02And I know I can

01:17:03never fully make up for it.

01:17:05But I want to try.

01:17:06James, you kept us apart for so many years.

01:17:10It's going to be hard to forgive and forget.

01:17:11I know, Clara.

01:17:16Jess, are you alright?

01:17:20Yeah, no, I'm

01:17:21I'm fine.

01:17:24I just feel

01:17:26nauseous, that's all.

01:17:29Have you been getting any other symptoms, like

01:17:31dizziness or fatigue?

01:17:34I don't care, but I just thought that was

01:17:36from all the stress.

01:17:38Oh.

01:17:38Sweetheart,

01:17:41you're pregnant.

01:17:44Really?

01:17:45You're showing all the signs, Jess.

01:17:49We're going to have a baby?

01:17:51Wait.

01:17:53That means I'm going to be a grandpa.

01:17:56Yeah.

01:17:57Daniel.

01:18:08There's something you need to do.

01:18:12What's this?

01:18:14This is a ring your grandma left.

01:18:17And I think

01:18:18this is the perfect

01:18:19time to use it.

01:18:21Go, Grandma.

01:18:22We're going to do this?

01:18:23Yeah.

01:18:24Go.

01:18:24No.

01:18:30Ahem.

01:18:34Jess.

01:18:35Jess.

01:18:37What?

01:18:38Ah.

01:18:39Jess, I know we've only ever spent time together

01:18:41a week during Christmas.

01:18:43And we've been through so much

01:18:44in that time.

01:18:46And over the past five years,

01:18:47all I've wanted to do

01:18:48is be with you.

01:18:50And I've had to endure the pain

01:18:51of that not being possible.

01:18:53I want to spend

01:18:54every waking moment

01:18:55in time with you.

01:18:57What I'm trying to say is, Jess,

01:18:59will you marry me?

01:19:06For real this time?

01:19:08Okay.

01:19:09Yes, Daniel.

01:19:10Yes, I will marry you.

01:19:11Yes.

01:19:12Really?

01:19:12Yes.

01:19:13Yes.

01:19:14Ah.

01:19:15Ah.

01:19:16Ah.

01:19:17Ah.

01:19:18Ah.

01:19:19Ah.

01:19:20Ah.

01:19:23Ah.

01:19:28Daniel.

01:19:28What?

01:19:3018,000 yuan of dowries?

01:19:32Vonnie, you have a paralyzed mom and a lousy gambling dad to your family.

01:19:36I'm a good match way out of your league.

01:19:38You should send me a car as dowries instead of asking me for dowries.

01:19:41But I earn more than you, and I paid the down payment of the matrimonial house.

01:19:46Your parents' names are on the house property certificate, and now you ask me for a car?

01:19:51I have no money.

01:19:52Why don't you ask your family for the money?

01:19:59If they don't give, take it as a loan.

01:20:00If they don't give, take it as a loan.

01:20:02We can pay them back, after we get married.

01:20:06Vonnie, I really want to marry you.

01:20:09Can't you just do more for our future life?

01:20:12Huh?

01:20:13Chad, don't get me wrong.

01:20:15I'm here to ask for dowries, not give out.

01:20:19Vonnie, you'd better take the offer.

01:20:21It is you eager to marry out, saying your mom is seriously ill, and you need a marriage

01:20:24to relieve her worries.

01:20:25Look at you, the least eligible woman, I pity you so that I offer to marry you.

01:20:29If you don't buy me a car, the marriage is off the table.

01:20:32Right, I'm desperate to get married, but not desperate enough to marry you.

01:20:36You!

01:20:38If I won't marry you, who would like to be with you?

01:20:47Hey dude, are you single?

01:20:49Do you mind having a wife?

01:20:50Get on board and go register now.

01:20:52I'd like to give it a shot.

01:20:53Anyhow, I don't have a wife.

01:20:55Do you see that?

01:20:58He wanna marry me.

01:21:00Scumbag.

01:21:09I'm married?

01:21:12Pack your things tonight, and move to my...

01:21:15Our home.

01:21:17Where?

01:21:17So, we are living together?

01:21:21What are you thinking about?

01:21:22We're married.

01:21:23It's natural for us to live together.

01:21:26Well, I'm John.

01:21:29An office worker.

01:21:30I'm usually busy at work.

01:21:32When you move in, you don't need to take care of me.

01:21:34I can support you with my salary.

01:21:36I have to work now.

01:21:37See you then.

01:21:38I'll pick you up after work.

01:21:39I see.

01:21:40We are working slaves.

01:21:41It's not easy to make a living.

01:21:42Just go back to work.

01:21:43How do you go home?

01:21:44Why not take a taxi?

01:21:45I'll pay for it.

01:21:46There are short bikes at the gate.

01:21:47I can ride one.

01:21:48Working slave?

01:21:49Hmph.

01:21:50My grandma chose her to be my wife.

01:21:51She seems to be interesting for now.

01:21:54I fainted last time.

01:21:56It's her saved me.

01:21:57After I left the hospital, she knew I lived alone and made many calls to cheer me up.

01:22:02John, she's the kindest girl I've ever met.

01:22:05You love her when you see her.

01:22:07Grandma, we are in a new era.

01:22:09Why do you want to arrange marriage for me?

01:22:11What?

01:22:11I got her scheduled yesterday.

01:22:13I want you to meet her.

01:22:15If you think she's a good girl, you can develop your relationship after marriage.

01:22:20Hear me out.

01:22:20If you don't give it a shot, you'll see my scenery casket when you get back.

01:22:25Boss, we've got 1,000 acre land of suburb of eastern China.

01:22:30Construction will be started in the middle of this month.

01:22:32Central Bank is asking us for the loan.

01:22:36Yes.

01:22:36Well.

01:22:39That's all for today.

01:22:45I'm going to pick up my wife home.

01:22:47Pick up your wife?

01:22:48What?

01:22:48Our boss is married?

01:22:52What gift should I give to a girl on our first date?

01:22:55Your first date?

01:22:56A lightning marriage?

01:23:01I think you are suitable for our project in Africa.

01:23:04Do you think so?

01:23:05Sorry, boss.

01:23:06I won't do it again.

01:23:07Just answer my question.

01:23:08No more bullshit.

01:23:08I think if you're not familiar with each other, it's better to send flowers.

01:23:15Half an hour.

01:23:16In just half an hour, I'll put the imported roses to the given location.

01:23:20Good.

01:23:20From now on, you drive my car and I'll drive yours.

01:23:24What?

01:23:32What's wrong with Mr. Lou?

01:23:34You want to drive my old Mercedes instead of his fancy phantom?

01:23:39Hey!

01:23:40Hey!

01:23:41Hey!

01:23:42What are you doing?

01:23:43Good dogs don't get underfoot.

01:23:44Hey!

01:23:45Hey!

01:23:46Hey!

01:23:46What are you doing?

01:23:47Good dogs don't get underfoot.

01:23:50Hey!

01:23:51You!

01:23:51Get out of my way!

01:23:52Yeah!

01:23:53Oops.

01:23:53She is doing the same thing.

01:23:55Oops...

01:23:55...

01:23:56...

01:23:58Thanks, speaking and I want you to stop sharing thedamas.
