00:00:00Bradley, I'm pregnant.
00:00:02You're going to be your father.
00:00:05What's she doing here?
00:00:07What do you think?
00:00:08No need to hide anymore.
00:00:10I'm leaving you.
00:00:12For Catherine.
00:00:13Unlike you, I'm young and rich.
00:00:16I can give Bradley what he deserves.
00:00:18Catherine hired me to be vice president in her family's hospital.
00:00:21She's also way better in bed.
00:00:23What's that?
00:00:30She's pregnant.
00:00:31What?
00:00:33She must be faking it to trap you.
00:00:36No, it's me so desperate.
00:00:38Give it back. Stop.
00:00:40Give it back.
00:01:00What happened?
00:01:11The baby.
00:01:12Is the baby okay?
00:01:17I'm so sorry.
00:01:20We've lost the baby.
00:01:24So sorry.
00:01:30We're right here, sweetheart.
00:01:32We're right here.
00:01:41I won't let Bradley and that woman get away with this.
00:01:46I'm ready to come back, Dad.
00:01:48Well, revenge won't heal the heart.
00:01:50This isn't about revenge.
00:01:52This is about holding them accountable.
00:01:54Are you sure you're ready for this?
00:01:56I've been preparing for years, Mom.
00:01:58Okay.
00:02:00But there is a condition.
00:02:06I have an important announcement.
00:02:08My daughter, Mia Gerber, will be the new CEO of Gerber Corporation.
00:02:13Is Mia ready for such a big role?
00:02:15I've been concealing my identity to go undercover within the industry.
00:02:18I've learned our competitors from the inside.
00:02:21Trust me.
00:02:23I'm more than ready.
00:02:24Furthermore, Mia will marry Joshua Lane from Lane Holdings.
00:02:33Mia will marry Joshua Lane from Lane Holdings.
00:02:35There is a condition.
00:02:40You're going to have to marry Joshua Lane, the heir of Lane Holdings.
00:02:45Mia's never even met this guy before.
00:02:47It's a strategic alliance, Noah.
00:02:51It's what's best for our families and the company.
00:02:54I'll do it.
00:02:54I'll marry Joshua Lane if that's what it takes.
00:03:00And this alliance will strengthen our company and secure our future.
00:03:08Isn't Joshua Lane fans for being called the little ruffles?
00:03:20That's what I heard.
00:03:21But I think it'll be good for the company.
00:03:23I don't think it'll be good for the new CEO.
00:03:24Joshua, I was hoping we could...
00:03:47Not interested.
00:03:48Get lost.
00:03:52Man, you are brutal.
00:03:54That's the fifth girl you've turned down tonight.
00:03:57Hey, I heard you're getting hitched to Mia Gerber.
00:03:59Why didn't you turn her down?
00:04:01This marriage is what my parents want.
00:04:03Couldn't care less about her.
00:04:04Oh, come on.
00:04:05She's the heiress to the Gerber Corporation.
00:04:07There must be some perks to her.
00:04:09Perks are not.
00:04:10She'll learn quickly that I'm not one to be messed with.
00:04:12Gonna give her a hard time, huh?
00:04:14Let's just say that she's got something coming.
00:04:24Do you, Joshua Lane, take Mia Gerber for your lawfully wedded wife?
00:04:31I do.
00:04:34And you, Mia Gerber, do you take Joshua Lane for your lawfully wedded husband?
00:04:39I do.
00:04:41Uh, the rings?
00:04:42You may now kiss the bride.
00:04:52Let's get one thing straight, Mia.
00:05:07Mia, this marriage is a show for our family and the rest of the world.
00:05:11Don't expect any affection from me.
00:05:13Understood.
00:05:15And vice versa.
00:05:15My parents want to set up a dinner with us.
00:05:34My assistant will set it up.
00:05:35She can coordinate schedules with my assistant.
00:05:37Done.
00:05:38Done.
00:05:45You're right.
00:05:47Alex and Eleanor Lane are behind a smear campaign against Joshua.
00:05:50Blue Diamond PR is already involved.
00:05:53What agency are we using?
00:05:55We're still deciding.
00:05:56Bids are open for this year's contract.
00:05:59Perfect.
00:06:01I have a plan.
00:06:05I'm offering the Gerber Corporation's annual PR budget.
00:06:08It's one of the largest in the industry.
00:06:11That's an enticing offer, Ms. Gerber.
00:06:13What do you ask of me in return?
00:06:17I need you to withdraw from any campaign against Joshua Lane.
00:06:20I don't mind.
00:06:21I'll cover the cancellation fee.
00:06:28You have a deal.
00:06:30The Gerber Corporation account is too good to pass up.
00:06:34There's a little more.
00:06:36I need you to spread the word.
00:06:38Any PR firm that goes against Joshua Lane
00:06:41will be blacklisted from the Gerber Corporation
00:06:43and our allies.
00:06:45You got it.
00:06:46No one in this industry would be stupid enough
00:06:49to fight against the Gerber Corporation.
00:06:52Wonderful.
00:06:53Thanks.
00:06:54Looking forward to a fruitful partnership.
00:06:55I have evidence of Alex's scheme against you.
00:07:05But don't worry, I've already taken care of it.
00:07:08I always knew Eleanor and Alex to be after my position.
00:07:12I just didn't expect Alex to be this bold.
00:07:15How do you know about this?
00:07:16Alex struck me as opportunistic.
00:07:18A smear campaign is the easiest way
00:07:19to sway the shareholders' opinion.
00:07:21and Eleanor's background in PR
00:07:23made this move predictable.
00:07:25You're more perceptive than I thought.
00:07:28Why are you helping me?
00:07:32Our family's alliance is crucial.
00:07:35Protecting you means protecting the Gerber Corporation.
00:07:37It's all business.
00:07:41Business, right.
00:07:44Well, in that case, I should help you with your beef
00:07:45with Catherine and Bradley, right?
00:07:47How did you know about that?
00:07:52Didn't expect me to enter into the marriage
00:07:54without doing background checks.
00:07:56I just don't get what the big deal about your ex is.
00:07:58I mean, they cheated on you.
00:08:01So what?
00:08:04She must be faking it to trap you.
00:08:09How dare you?
00:08:10You had no right to dig into my past like that.
00:08:14I can take care of myself.
00:08:17What just happened?
00:08:23To your new position as senior VP.
00:08:28And it's all thanks to my help, of course.
00:08:31Absolutely.
00:08:32You're my lucky charm, honey.
00:08:39Imagine if I'd stayed with Mia.
00:08:41Poor and powerless.
00:08:42That's all she ever was.
00:08:43She's a joke.
00:08:45A stepping stone at best.
00:08:47If you're by my side, we are un-snopp.
00:09:01Catherine's Hospital is resisting our acquisition.
00:09:04Bradley, as the new senior VP, is leading the pushback.
00:09:07Do they know I'm the CEO yet?
00:09:09No, as per your request.
00:09:11Perfect.
00:09:12Keep at it.
00:09:18Now how do I pull this off?
00:09:20There are gaps in Mia's medical record right after her breakup.
00:09:32These are from the Gerber Corporation's own hospital.
00:09:35Only someone higher up from within can access it.
00:09:38I want to know what happened to Mia during that gap.
00:09:47After the breakup.
00:09:48Even if I know, why would I tell you?
00:09:50Mia helped me.
00:09:51But unless I understand that part of the puzzle,
00:09:54I won't be able to return her fate.
00:09:56Do you care for her?
00:09:59You don't dislike her?
00:10:00No, Mia deserves someone who truly loves her.
00:10:05Not you.
00:10:07She's a grown woman.
00:10:08She knows what she wants.
00:10:10Nobody gets to tell her what she deserves.
00:10:11Especially not you.
00:10:20You can choose not to share the information.
00:10:23But you won't be helping her.
00:10:26Your choice.
00:10:30All right, look.
00:10:33If you have to know,
00:10:35unfortunately,
00:10:37Mia had a miscarriage
00:10:38because of an accident involving Bradley and Catherine.
00:10:41How are you feeling?
00:11:03It's none of your business.
00:11:06Not that you would know what that means.
00:11:07I'm sorry for overstepping
00:11:10and being insensitive.
00:11:12I learned about your miscarriage.
00:11:14I had no idea.
00:11:16You didn't know?
00:11:17That doesn't excuse my behavior.
00:11:20I apologize.
00:11:22I may have overreacted.
00:11:24You were hurting.
00:11:25That's understandable.
00:11:27So you're not a robot.
00:11:28Like everyone says you are.
00:11:30Of course I'm not.
00:11:31Who says that?
00:11:33Everyone.
00:11:33I mean, your family,
00:11:34your friends,
00:11:35your co-workers,
00:11:37enemies.
00:11:39I even heard the maids
00:11:39joking about it the other day.
00:11:42Bar them all.
00:11:43No, no.
00:11:44No, it's okay.
00:11:46They're allowed to joke.
00:11:47They've been doing a wonderful job.
00:11:50Besides,
00:11:50I think you should
00:11:51talk like this.
00:11:53It suits you.
00:11:56It's not funny.
00:11:57It's late.
00:12:03I'm going to bed.
00:12:05Okay.
00:12:07Good night.
00:12:14Talk like this.
00:12:15Go ahead with plan.
00:12:30Short the stock
00:12:30of Catherine's company.
00:12:32I want to see them bleed.
00:12:42Mia,
00:12:43you need to see this.
00:12:44The stock of Catherine's hospital
00:12:46has been shortened dramatically.
00:12:48They're on the verge
00:12:48of bankruptcy.
00:12:49Just a week?
00:12:50How is this possible?
00:12:51Seems like a coordinated attack.
00:12:54Someone powerful
00:12:54is behind this.
00:12:58Joshua.
00:13:04Did you short Catherine's stock?
00:13:07Yes, I did.
00:13:08Why?
00:13:09Strictly for business.
00:13:11To protect our family's alliances.
00:13:12Your enemies are my enemies now.
00:13:14Thank you, Joshua.
00:13:16I just did what's necessary.
00:13:17Just like you would do.
00:13:18Now to pay a little visit
00:13:19to Bradley and Catherine.
00:13:28Bradley,
00:13:29what are we going to do?
00:13:30They're taking everything.
00:13:32I can't believe this is happening.
00:13:33As of now,
00:13:36this hospital is under
00:13:37Gerber Corporation's control.
00:13:39Yes, the Gerber Corporation.
00:13:41As in my family's company.
00:13:43Mia Gerber?
00:13:43I thought you were Mia Whitlock.
00:13:45Whitlock was just a name I used
00:13:47to conceal my identity.
00:13:49You betrayed and hurt my wife.
00:13:51Now you're facing the consequences.
00:13:53I've resigned.
00:13:54You can't touch me.
00:13:55Resignation or not, Bradley,
00:13:56your career is over.
00:13:58I've seen to it that everyone
00:13:59in this industry
00:13:59won't touch you
00:14:00after what you've done.
00:14:02Mia,
00:14:03you know that I never meant
00:14:05to hurt you.
00:14:06This hospital is all
00:14:08that I have left.
00:14:08Please.
00:14:10No.
00:14:11That day that I fell,
00:14:13you stood there and watched.
00:14:15You made your decision then.
00:14:17Mia, can we talk?
00:14:18I know I hurt you deeply.
00:14:19I just want to apologize
00:14:21to make things right.
00:14:36Mia, I'm truly sorry
00:14:38about everything.
00:14:40I dreamt about you
00:14:41and the baby every day.
00:14:43I just couldn't bring myself
00:14:44to tell you this
00:14:45after the accident
00:14:45because I felt so ashamed of myself.
00:14:48Your apology can't undo
00:14:49what's been done, Bradley.
00:14:51I know.
00:14:52I just,
00:14:53I need you to know
00:14:54that I will always care
00:14:56about you deeply.
00:15:10You're really like they say.
00:15:12Tall,
00:15:13handsome,
00:15:14powerful.
00:15:19You know I can make you
00:15:24a very happy man.
00:15:29I do not engage with women
00:15:31who have no shame.
00:15:33Get your hands off me.
00:15:39Catherine manipulated me,
00:15:40but now I realize
00:15:41she's nothing compared to you.
00:15:43We could start over.
00:15:44With your family's resources,
00:15:46I could help you
00:15:46grow the business.
00:15:48We could be parents again.
00:15:49Give us a chance.
00:15:51You know,
00:15:52if I wasn't 100% sure before,
00:15:55I am now.
00:15:56You're a piece of human trash.
00:16:00You're right.
00:16:00I'm dirty.
00:16:01But think about
00:16:02all the good memories we have.
00:16:03Think about more to come.
00:16:05Just say...
00:16:05Let go.
00:16:06Mia, don't.
00:16:06Bradley.
00:16:07I'm serious.
00:16:07Don't.
00:16:08Get the fuck out of here.
00:16:09I should have intervened
00:16:20before Bradley could touch you.
00:16:21It's fine, Joshua.
00:16:23Thank you for
00:16:24stepping in.
00:16:25Thank you for
00:16:25everything.
00:16:31Yeah,
00:16:31I followed through
00:16:32with all my business plans.
00:16:34Right.
00:16:35Yeah.
00:16:36The business plan.
00:16:37You know,
00:16:38you call me your wife
00:16:39for the first time.
00:16:41Don't look into it
00:16:42too much.
00:16:44Let's go.
00:16:45Actually,
00:16:45you know what?
00:16:47Now that all the revenge
00:16:48is done,
00:16:50I think I want to
00:16:51take some time alone
00:16:51to
00:16:52figure out my feelings.
00:16:56I understand.
00:17:02They've destroyed everything.
00:17:04We can't let them
00:17:05get away with this.
00:17:07What if we take
00:17:10Mia?
00:17:12A ransom would help us
00:17:14but hurt Mia.
00:17:16Yes.
00:17:18Abducting Mia Gerber.
00:17:20Let's see how
00:17:21Joshua Lane reacts then.
00:17:23But how will we get to Mia?
00:17:25I know that she always
00:17:26goes to this one spot
00:17:27alone.
00:17:28From what I know about her,
00:17:30she must be there right now.
00:17:31She'soto I.
00:18:00I know that she's
00:18:01Hey!
00:18:31Hey!
00:18:33Hey!
00:18:35Help!
00:18:43Thought you could get rid of us, Mia?
00:18:47You and Joshua will regret ever crossing us.
00:18:53Don't bring him into this, you bitch!
00:19:01That's what we're talking about to me.
00:19:13Look at you, just as pathetic as the day you fell.
00:19:19Of course I could have saved you, but why would I?
00:19:23You and your baby are worth nothing.
00:19:31Joshua Lane?
00:19:33Listen.
00:19:35We have Mia Gerber. You want her back?
00:19:37Get ready with a hefty ransom.
00:19:39I'll pay the rights.
00:19:41But listen to me clearly.
00:19:43I will hunt you down in your wish you'd never cross me!
00:19:53Based on the footage from Mia's car camera,
00:19:55it seems Bradley and Catherine are behind this.
00:19:58These are the possible locations where Mia can be.
00:20:02This one.
00:20:14Mia.
00:20:16I got you.
00:20:18I got you.
00:20:20Let's get you out of here.
00:20:22Let's get you out of here.
00:20:52Let's get you out of here.
00:20:54Let's go.
00:20:55Let's get you out of here.
00:20:56Let's go.
00:20:57Let's go.
00:20:58Let's go.
00:20:59Let's go.
00:21:00Let's go.
00:21:01Let's go.
00:21:02Stop.
00:21:04It's not worth it.
00:21:06Let's go.
00:21:07Other matters have occupied my brain. I know that's not an excuse to forget about you, but I guess that's just life someday.
00:21:26Made you some soup. Thank you. It's very unique. What is this? My mom's recipe. Before she passed
00:21:51the way she used to make it for me when I was sick. Thought it might comfort you. Must have made it wrong.
00:21:57It's wonderful. I don't know how to thank you enough. It's nothing. I just did what I had to do.
00:22:09Toshul, is this still just a marriage of convenience for you?
00:22:15Excuse me, Mr. and Mrs. Lane. A guest has arrived. Her name is Susie Harper.
00:22:19Susie's back.
00:22:28Oh, I've missed you so much.
00:22:36Susie, it's been ages. When's the last time we saw each other?
00:22:41Four years ago, before I went abroad.
00:22:44It's been too long. Welcome back, Susie.
00:22:47I came back just for you.
00:22:50Oh, there's so much...
00:22:51Thanks.
00:22:53Susie, this is my wife, Mia. Mia, this is Susie, an old friend of mine.
00:23:00So, you're the one Joshua had to marry.
00:23:04Oh, Susie, that's enough.
00:23:07Joshua and I have a special bond, you know? We've been friends since, like, forever.
00:23:12He means a lot to me. I want him to be happy.
00:23:18I think we all want that.
00:23:19Do you?
00:23:21Joshua and I talk often over the phone.
00:23:24He confides in me.
00:23:26I'm one of the few he truly trusts.
00:23:28He mentioned he was quite unhappy about the marriage.
00:23:31Right, uh, well, it seems like you two have a lot to catch up on, so I'll leave you to it.
00:23:42Susie, why would you say those things?
00:23:45I told you I have doubts before the wedding, not since then.
00:23:49Joshua, you're clearly unhappy. I was just speaking up for you.
00:23:54I don't need you to look out for me.
00:23:55I'm sorry, I just was trying to help, since you clearly didn't want the marriage.
00:24:06I don't mind it now.
00:24:09Do you like her?
00:24:11She's fine.
00:24:14This means I still have a chance.
00:24:17Joshua, if I had stayed by your side, you never would have had to marry a complete stranger like Mia Gerber.
00:24:25I'm sure it hasn't been pleasant.
00:24:28Now that I'm back, you can always talk to me.
00:24:32Susie, you're a great friend.
00:24:34Of course.
00:24:35I'll always be there for you.
00:24:44How's it going?
00:24:46It's this marriage.
00:24:48It's Joshua. He's like a shadow.
00:24:50He's always there, but never really close.
00:24:53You deserve someone who can give you all the love and appreciation you need.
00:25:00Remember, if you ever need anything, I'm here.
00:25:04Thank you, Noah.
00:25:07How could I live without you?
00:25:12I can't live without you.
00:25:23I'll do everything to protect you, Mia.
00:25:34How could I live without you?
00:25:38I'll do everything to protect you, Mia.
00:25:40Joshua.
00:25:55We can't be like this forever. We have to talk.
00:26:00Why don't you talk to Noah?
00:26:02Seems like you have plenty to say to him.
00:26:03I don't even know what that means!
00:26:05There's nothing between Noah and me.
00:26:07You and Susie, on the other hand.
00:26:09What?
00:26:11Whatever you think, I don't care.
00:26:29What's he doing here?
00:26:31Look, I'm here to deliver some documents to Mia.
00:26:43And if you ever hurt her, just know that I will protect her at all costs.
00:26:49And what exactly have you done to protect her?
00:26:53Seems like all talk but no action.
00:26:55What are you two doing?
00:26:57What's going on here? Joshua, why are you acting so abrasion?
00:27:01This is ridiculous! You invite him into our house just to talk to him?
00:27:05I didn't invite- Joshua!
00:27:07I'm sorry Mia. I didn't mean to cause any rift between you two. It wasn't my intention.
00:27:11It's fine. Why are you here?
00:27:13Why are you here?
00:27:15I'm here to protect you and the company.
00:27:17I suspect that Dwayne Kaiser has been conspiring with Melody Healthcare.
00:27:23Is that Dwayne?
00:27:25And the CEO of Melody Healthcare.
00:27:31This plan is our game changer.
00:27:34What about Melody Healthcare? They're our biggest rival.
00:27:37They're going in a completely different direction.
00:27:39We are way ahead of them.
00:27:42And how do you know that?
00:27:44The CEO approached me the other day.
00:27:46He tried to get some information from me, but I flipped it and got some information from him.
00:27:50Like I'd be trying my own company.
00:27:52You'd be a fool to think that.
00:27:54Right. Of course, Dwayne.
00:27:56Let's go ahead with the plan.
00:28:05See? He's fine.
00:28:08I don't know. There's something strange about him.
00:28:10I can't put my finger on it, but just keep your eyes open, okay?
00:28:15I will.
00:28:19Mia suspected, but I made her trust me now.
00:28:24Let's go ahead and move forward with the plan.
00:28:27Excellent.
00:28:28Once we execute the strategy, the Gerbers will be blindsided.
00:28:33Melody Healthcare will be the number one.
00:28:35Mia Gerber will be out of the company, and I'll be the number one.
00:28:47How did they get ahead of us?
00:28:48This was our strategy.
00:28:50Where's Dwayne?
00:28:51He's outside.
00:28:52Melody Healthcare just announced their new AI-generated online psychiatric care.
00:29:09The similarity of the details to ours is uncanny.
00:29:16I don't know.
00:29:18We kept everything under wraps.
00:29:20They must have developed this independently.
00:29:23Mia, you're just too young.
00:29:25You're not experienced enough in this business world.
00:29:28This stuff happens.
00:29:29I'm experienced enough to know that this is not a coincidence.
00:29:33And I don't need you to tell me what I do and do not know.
00:29:37You can move.
00:29:38Why do you look so sullen all the time?
00:29:54It doesn't look good on you.
00:29:57Wow.
00:29:58Thanks for the comfort.
00:30:04Damn it, why did I have to say that like that?
00:30:09Ms. Gerber, an emergency board meeting has been called.
00:30:12What?
00:30:13We need to talk about the leadership of this company.
00:30:23It is clear that Mia's recent decisions, well, they've been questionable.
00:30:32Acquiring Kathryn Finney's Hospital was a big misstep.
00:30:37Now Melody's Healthcare is outpacing us.
00:30:39Mia, I'm sorry, but you're too young and inexperienced to be in this role.
00:30:45I believe under my leadership, our profits have already increased by 20% compared to last year.
00:30:52That's due to the overall market trend, not because of your leadership.
00:30:58My strategies have been more than effective.
00:31:01The Finley acquisition has potential long-term benefits.
00:31:04And our growth, by the way, is not just a fluke.
00:31:07This company, this board needs a leader with experience and vision, not someone learning on a job.
00:31:16As a senior VP, on behalf of all the employees with Gerber Corporation, we support Mia.
00:31:22I also have evidence that Dwayne Kaiser has been conspiring Melody Healthcare to undermine the company.
00:31:26I also have evidence that Dwayne Kaiser has been conspiring Melody Healthcare to undermine the company.
00:31:32What is this? What are you doing?
00:31:38These are communications between Dwayne and Melody Healthcare.
00:31:41He leaked our strategy.
00:31:43You're fired, Dwayne. Effective immediately.
00:31:49I've been with you since you founded the company.
00:31:51All these years, I'm never the CEO, but you give it to your daughter?
00:31:54I've always known you were ambitious, but I never thought you would stoop this load.
00:31:58Your lack of trustworthiness is why you were never CEO.
00:32:03We built this company on integrity and trust.
00:32:07Values you clearly lack.
00:32:10Security, escort Mr. Kaiser out.
00:32:13What?
00:32:14Wait.
00:32:15Then...
00:32:25Mia, we're so proud of you.
00:32:28You really handled the crisis well.
00:32:32You truly are a go-go.
00:32:36No, I can't thank you enough.
00:32:39Of course.
00:32:40You know I'd do anything for you.
00:32:41You know, I never asked, but how did you get your hands on those documents?
00:32:47It all started with an anonymous tip.
00:32:50Someone delivered photos of Dwayne meeting with the owner of Melody Healthcare,
00:32:54and I intercepted the tip.
00:32:58This is your schedule for the week.
00:33:00And what's this?
00:33:02Seems to be about Mr. Kaiser.
00:33:04Okay, I'll take that too. Thanks.
00:33:11Anonymous.
00:33:16Who would do that?
00:33:18I don't know.
00:33:20But the photos led me to dig deeper, and eventually I found clear evidence of his betrayal.
00:33:26Can I see the photos?
00:33:27I think I might know who's behind this, but I need to confirm.
00:33:42Ethan, I need to talk to you about these photos.
00:33:44Is this you?
00:33:46In the reflection?
00:33:47Were you following Dwayne?
00:33:49Yeah, it's me.
00:33:51Joshua asked me to keep an eye on Dwayne.
00:33:53He's had his suspicions about Dwayne's loyalty for a while.
00:33:56We then delivered the photos.
00:33:58Mr. Lane, what a surprise.
00:34:03Should I tell Ms. Lane you're here?
00:34:04No need to.
00:34:09Why couldn't Joshua just tell me about his suspicions?
00:34:12Joshua's a...
00:34:14He's a complicated man.
00:34:16He means well, but he struggles with expressing himself.
00:34:19He's never gone through such steps for anyone before Mia.
00:34:22This must mean he cares about you.
00:34:25He could just talk to me next time.
00:34:27Well, Joshua has his ways.
00:34:30He might not show it, but he cares deeply.
00:34:32I just ask that you...
00:34:36Don't hurt him.
00:34:37I won't.
00:34:40Your loyal friend, Ethan.
00:34:49Joshua, I need to talk to you.
00:34:51It's about Dwayne Kaiser and Melody Healthcare.
00:34:54What about it?
00:34:56I know you sent Ethan to follow Dwayne.
00:34:58Why didn't you just talk to me?
00:34:59It just seemed like the best course of action at the time.
00:35:02Joshua, is there more to this marriage than the alliance?
00:35:06Did you do it because...
00:35:08No, no. It's nothing like that.
00:35:10I just couldn't have my wife being voted out as CEO on paper.
00:35:14It would look bad for me.
00:35:16So it's all about appearances?
00:35:18Yes, Mia. It's all it ever is.
00:35:20We agreed to a business arrangement.
00:35:21Joshua, I'm so tired of this.
00:35:24Of living in a fantasy where I never actually get to know you.
00:35:28I'm more than just a tool for business advancement or keeping up appearances.
00:35:34I want a divorce.
00:35:36I want a divorce.
00:35:40I want a divorce.
00:35:45You sure about this?
00:35:48I deserve something real in my life, Joshua.
00:35:51Not this facade.
00:35:53I deserve to be more than just a business arrangement in somebody's life.
00:35:59I want genuine happiness.
00:36:01I understand.
00:36:03If that's what you want.
00:36:08Joshua, please.
00:36:12Let's proceed with the divorce.
00:36:13Let's go, Joshua.
00:36:14Let's go, Joshua.
00:36:35Oh, my God.
00:36:37Yeah, I'll be back.
00:36:39Okay, I'll be back, worldwide.
00:36:40Joshua, what are you doing to yourself?
00:36:56Mia.
00:36:57Mia?
00:37:00Mia, don't leave, don't leave.
00:37:01You're drunk.
00:37:02Please, help me take him to his car.
00:37:06I'll take him to my place.
00:37:08He shouldn't be alone.
00:37:10Okay, let's go.
00:37:22Mia.
00:37:24Mia.
00:37:32Morning, Josh.
00:37:34Here, drink this.
00:37:36You've had quite a night.
00:37:38Susie.
00:37:40Where am I?
00:37:42This is my apartment.
00:37:44Nothing bad happened.
00:37:46I also drove your car back here.
00:37:48How did I get here?
00:37:50You were really drunk.
00:37:52I didn't think you should be alone.
00:37:55Josh, what happened?
00:37:57It's over between me and Mia.
00:37:59We're getting a divorce.
00:38:01Maybe it was never meant to be.
00:38:09You deserve someone who understands and loves you.
00:38:31No, I can't do this, Susie.
00:38:42Why?
00:38:43I have always loved you.
00:38:46Now that you and me are getting a divorce, we can finally be together.
00:38:50Susie, you are a dear friend and like a little sister.
00:38:54It can't be anything more.
00:38:57I'm sorry.
00:38:59Do you really love that Mia Kerber?
00:39:03Uh.
00:39:06Yes, as a matter of fact, I do.
00:39:10I need to go tell her.
00:39:11Now.
00:39:11You're calling as you are getting to an automatic point.
00:39:37No, uh, hey.
00:39:57I've decided to divorce Joshua.
00:39:59Are you okay?
00:40:01I'm fine.
00:40:02It's just...
00:40:03It's for the best.
00:40:04There's something I need to tell you about, Melissa.
00:40:07Sorry. It's the hospital. Hello? What? What happened? Is he okay?
00:40:16Okay, yeah, I'll be right there.
00:40:18What's wrong?
00:40:19It's Joshua. He's been in an accident.
00:40:28Excuse me. Excuse me. I'm here for Joshua Lane.
00:40:37Joshua.
00:40:41Miss Gerber?
00:40:42Yeah.
00:40:43We found that Mr. Lane was attempting to call you when the accident occurred.
00:40:49It's not my fault.
00:40:52It was nobody's fault. It was an accident.
00:40:55But right now, he needs you.
00:40:58Do your best to help him wake up, will you?
00:41:02I won't leave you, Joshua.
00:41:07Do you remember that soup you made me?
00:41:10It meant the world to me.
00:41:13Whenever you get better,
00:41:15I'm gonna make you that soup.
00:41:19Because I know it was your mom's recipe.
00:41:22It was those little moments with you.
00:41:26You know, whenever we would wake up
00:41:27and come out of our rooms and see each other in the morning,
00:41:32sometimes that was the happiest part of my day.
00:41:37Please come back to me.
00:41:49This is all your fault, Mia.
00:41:51You drove him to this.
00:41:54You hurt him.
00:41:56And now, look what's happened to him.
00:42:05Mia, we have a problem.
00:42:06Eleanor and Alex are plotting to make Alex the new CEO while Joshua's in a coma.
00:42:12Now even Joshua's father's been convinced.
00:42:14So they're using Joshua's condition to their advantage.
00:42:17I won't stand for it.
00:42:18What's the plan?
00:42:20I'm meeting with Mr. Lane.
00:42:22He's a key shareholder of Lane Holdings.
00:42:24His voice can sway their head.
00:42:26Thank you for agreeing to meet me on such short notice, Mr. Lane.
00:42:31I've always been curious about the famous Mia Gerber.
00:42:34After all, you're the one who led Gerber Corporation to the next level.
00:42:37You too, Clay.
00:42:38I'm merely stating a fact.
00:42:40Not everyone in the second generation is as capable as you.
00:42:43So, tell me, why do you want to see me?
00:42:48Is it about Alex being the new CEO?
00:42:50You're a wise man, Mr. Lane.
00:42:53Joshua's vision has been the driving force behind Lane Holdings.
00:42:56We cannot allow Alex to derail that.
00:43:00I can't do anything at this time.
00:43:03Joshua is out of commission.
00:43:05It's best to have someone lead the company.
00:43:07Gerald is not in good health after a stroke.
00:43:11Alex is the only choice.
00:43:13And what if I told you...
00:43:15There's another choice.
00:43:18And what if I told you...
00:43:20There's another choice.
00:43:21I can be the interim CEO of Lane Holdings as Joshua's legal wife.
00:43:27I can uphold his legacy.
00:43:29And, as you mentioned before, I'm a very capable CEO in my own right.
00:43:33Your vote, of course, is crucial.
00:43:35But, more than anything, people trust your judgment.
00:43:39If you choose to have faith in me, others will follow.
00:43:42And I promise, I won't disappoint.
00:43:46Can you run two companies at the same time?
00:43:48I have a very capable team over at Gerber Corporation.
00:43:52They'll keep things running smoothly, even if I'm not there full-time.
00:43:55I'll devote my time to Lane Holdings...
00:43:57Until Joshua gets better.
00:44:00What if he doesn't?
00:44:02He won't.
00:44:04I admire your tenacity.
00:44:06I'll do what I can.
00:44:08Thank you, Mr. Lane.
00:44:09I'll fight for you, Joshua.
00:44:30You did the same for me.
00:44:35And we'll let you down.
00:44:36Given Joshua's current condition, I propose Mia Gerber as the interim CEO of Lane Holdings.
00:44:49Mia Gerber?
00:44:51She's from a different company.
00:44:53How is she even qualified?
00:44:54Mia is Joshua's wife, the legal heir.
00:44:57She's proven her capabilities with Gerber Corporation.
00:45:00Combining the strengths of both companies and her leadership will only make Lane Holdings strong.
00:45:05This is absurd.
00:45:07Mia is practically a stranger to our company's operations.
00:45:11While I appreciate your concerns, I think my track record speaks for itself.
00:45:17And unlike Alex here, who has had his hand in multiple questionable business dealings,
00:45:23I offer a clean slate and a fresh perspective.
00:45:26I agree with Mr. Lane.
00:45:29Mia's appointment as interim CEO is the best course of action for now.
00:45:33But Dad, stop, Alex.
00:45:41Joshua, I hope you're proud.
00:45:46Let's go.
00:45:49You ain't gonna take over, no consequences, Mia?
00:45:50I'm gonna make her pay.
00:45:55You won't be touching her.
00:45:57Who the fuck are you?
00:46:04Damn it, she's gone.
00:46:05Take care of me.
00:46:14See the security camera?
00:46:15I'm gonna get the footage.
00:46:17And if you ever try and hurt me again, I'll call the police.
00:46:21You'll never become the CEO of Lane Holdings.
00:46:23Ever.
00:46:24God damn it!
00:46:35Thanks.
00:46:36Noah, what happened?
00:46:45Don't worry, I'm fine.
00:46:47You're not fine.
00:46:49You're bleeding.
00:46:52Are you okay?
00:46:57Thanks.
00:46:58But the reason I came over was I wanted to finish our conversation with him before.
00:47:03Mrs. Lane.
00:47:04It's Mr. Lane.
00:47:05He's waking up from the coma.
00:47:09I have to go to the hospital.
00:47:11I just want to tell you something important.
00:47:12No, no.
00:47:13Nothing's more important than Joshua right now.
00:47:19Joshua, Joshua, Joshua.
00:47:21It's fucking Joshua.
00:47:22It's fucking Joshua, huh?
00:47:26When you wake up, we can be together.
00:47:31Mia doesn't deserve you.
00:47:32But you and I, we're meant to be.
00:47:41Mia.
00:47:44Joshua, you're awake.
00:47:47Mia.
00:47:47Excuse me, miss.
00:47:52Mr. Lane?
00:47:55Mr. Lane?
00:47:57Mia.
00:47:58Can you hear me, sir?
00:48:00Mia.
00:48:01Call his wife, Mia Gerber, immediately.
00:48:03Mr. Lane, I need you to concentrate for me.
00:48:05Do you remember what day it is?
00:48:07Mia.
00:48:09Yes.
00:48:09We're getting your wife right now, sir.
00:48:10I'm sorry.
00:48:18I'm sorry.
00:48:18This is all my fault.
00:48:19No, Mia.
00:48:21Don't blame yourself.
00:48:23It's a price I was willing to pay.
00:48:25You got hurt because of me.
00:48:27Mia, listen to me.
00:48:32I'm sorry for all the pain I caused you.
00:48:34I'm not being honest about my feelings.
00:48:39I'm afraid to admit it.
00:48:41Even to myself.
00:48:43I can't hide it anymore.
00:48:45I love you, Mia.
00:48:48I never thought I'd hear you say those words.
00:48:52You should have said them sooner.
00:48:56I love you too, Joshua.
00:48:57I love you too, Joshua.
00:48:57I love you too, Joshua.
00:48:57I love you too, Joshua.
00:48:57I love you too, Joshua.
00:49:04I love you too, Joshua.
00:49:05I love you too, Joshua.
00:49:06I love you too, Joshua.
00:49:07I love you too, Joshua.
00:49:08I love you too, Joshua.
00:49:24Noah Bellini.
00:49:25Drinking alone?
00:49:27What do you want, Dwayne?
00:49:28Just to talk.
00:49:29You are underappreciating, Noah.
00:49:34Maybe we could help each other out.
00:49:40Thank you for standing out for me while I was out.
00:49:44I heard you manage as interim CEO of Lane Holdings.
00:49:47I handled things.
00:49:49I actually have a business meeting later today with a potential partner.
00:49:54Who's the partner?
00:49:55Kevin Katz.
00:49:56He's a key player in the industry.
00:50:01Katz?
00:50:02He's notorious for being pansy with business partners.
00:50:07I don't like the idea of you two being alone.
00:50:09I can handle Katz.
00:50:11We've dealt with worse.
00:50:13Just be careful, all right?
00:50:16I will.
00:50:20I promise.
00:50:21I got to go.
00:50:27I love you.
00:50:35So our collaboration will be mutually beneficial, especially when expanding into new markets.
00:50:40Absolutely, Mia.
00:50:41I've always admired Lane Holdings.
00:50:44Now with you at the helm, perhaps we can find ways to make our partnership more enjoyable.
00:50:54Mr. Katz, let's keep this strictly professional.
00:50:58Oh, come on, Mia.
00:51:00Don't be such a prude.
00:51:01Business is more fun when there's a personal touch.
00:51:08Don't you agree?
00:51:09I will not be doing business with people who cannot respect personal boundaries.
00:51:16You'll regret this, bitch.
00:51:19I could ruin Lane Holdings' reputation.
00:51:23Now you have one last chance.
00:51:25Oh!
00:51:30That's for being a disgusting pig.
00:51:39How'd the meeting go?
00:51:45Let's just say Kevin Katz won't be bothering us anymore.
00:51:49What did he do?
00:51:50I handled it.
00:51:52Okay?
00:51:53Let's just focus on getting you better and back in charge.
00:51:58Can I get you some water?
00:51:59Water?
00:52:02Water?
00:52:02Water?
00:52:03Water?
00:52:03Water?
00:52:04Water?
00:52:04Water?
00:52:04Water?
00:52:05Water?
00:52:05Water?
00:52:06Water?
00:52:07Water?
00:52:07Water?
00:52:08Water?
00:52:08Water?
00:52:10Ethan, get the bodyguard and meet me downstairs.
00:52:12I can't explain right now, just do it.
00:52:19Where's Joshua?
00:52:21Mr. Lane checked out.
00:52:23He insisted he was well enough to leave.
00:52:24No, he's not fully recovered yet.
00:52:31What are you trying to do?
00:52:32Teach you a lesson that you can't touch Joshua Lane's woman.
00:52:35You can't do this, Lane, I can sue you and you'll end up in jail.
00:52:48This is you, Mr. Katz, doing something quite illegal.
00:52:51I must say, your taste is really reprehensible.
00:52:54You can't sue me.
00:52:55You can't sue me.
00:52:56It was a long time ago.
00:52:58If I can still release the video, you'll lose everything.
00:53:02In fact, I'll just tell you.
00:53:06The victim's identity was protected and they'll be set for the rest of their life.
00:53:10You...
00:53:11You so much as speak a word about me or me, I'll make sure you wish you were born.
00:53:22Where were you?
00:53:23I was worried sick.
00:53:24I had to take care of something.
00:53:26About cats.
00:53:28I told you I handled it.
00:53:30I can take care of myself.
00:53:31I won't allow anyone laying their hands on you.
00:53:33Still, it's so reckless!
00:53:38It's okay now.
00:53:40You handled it?
00:53:41I did.
00:53:42I'm flattered by the jealousy.
00:53:46I really do love you, Joshua.
00:53:47I love you too, Nia.
00:53:54I have a surprise for you.
00:54:05I made something for you.
00:54:08What's this?
00:54:09It's your mom's recipe.
00:54:11I found it in a cookbook in the library.
00:54:13I can't believe you made this.
00:54:19I thought it might bring you some comfort.
00:54:27This...
00:54:28This is exactly how she used to make it.
00:54:33How'd you get it so right?
00:54:35I may have had some help from the internet in about 50 practice runs.
00:54:43You're just the best.
00:54:48We have a plan that could ship the balance of power in our favor.
00:54:54Our plan didn't overthrow Mia Gerber and the Gerber Corporation.
00:54:59But this time, we will.
00:55:02I just...
00:55:02I don't want Mia to lose everything.
00:55:04I promise you, she won't.
00:55:07With the Gerber family's fortune, Mia's set for life.
00:55:10She just won't be the CEO anymore.
00:55:13Think about this.
00:55:15With the Gerber family out of practice,
00:55:17Lane Holdings,
00:55:19they will partner with them.
00:55:20Joshua and Lane will probably divorce Mia
00:55:22because she's no use to him.
00:55:25Mia can finally be yours.
00:55:27Here's the plan.
00:55:29We target Gerber Corporation's medical device supplier network.
00:55:33Disrupting it will cause significant issues
00:55:35in the hospital and psychiatric care units.
00:55:39And we proceed.
00:55:40Melody Healthcare has insiders inside their supply chain.
00:55:45We'll start by creating delays and quality issues.
00:55:48The fallout will be immediate and devastating.
00:55:52The resources stretch so thin,
00:55:54they won't even see us coming.
00:55:56Why are there so many cancelled contracts with Gerber Corporation?
00:56:09Hey.
00:56:09You haven't noticed any suppliers backing out of deals with Gerber Corporation.
00:56:17There are rumors someone's been persuading them to cut ties with the Gerber's.
00:56:22What do you mean they've stopped supplying to us?
00:56:38Noah, the suppliers are backing out for no reason.
00:56:54It's competitive marketing, Mia.
00:56:56Yeah, but this feels coordinated.
00:56:58Isn't that unusual?
00:56:59Yeah, it is.
00:57:00I'm going to look into it.
00:57:03Hey, are you okay?
00:57:05Yeah, I'm fine.
00:57:05I'm just busy.
00:57:06Don't worry about me.
00:57:09Okay.
00:57:16You look like you've been through a war zone.
00:57:19What will happen?
00:57:20It's the supplier crisis.
00:57:23The situation's worse than I thought.
00:57:27I don't know what to do, Joshua.
00:57:32We'll get through this together.
00:57:34Thank you all for coming.
00:57:46We understand your concerns, and we're prepared to increase profits to maintain our partnerships.
00:57:52Now, the offer looks good.
00:58:05But we heard some rumors of internal issues within the corporation company involving a higher level.
00:58:11Let me assure you, Gerber Corporation is as strong as ever.
00:58:17These rumors are unfounded.
00:58:18You're right.
00:58:29There are gaps in Noah's whereabouts.
00:58:31Keep digging, Ethan.
00:58:32We need concrete evidence.
00:58:38Mia, Noah might be involved with the issues at the company.
00:58:41There's no way.
00:58:43He's very loyal to the company.
00:58:45Although he has been acting weird lately.
00:58:48Have you ever considered he might have feelings for you?
00:58:51I mean, feelings make us do things.
00:58:54No.
00:58:55Noah's a brother to me.
00:58:57He's never even said anything remotely romantic.
00:59:01Actions speak louder than words.
00:59:02I mean, sure, he's supportive and caring, but that's just Noah being Noah.
00:59:08I really don't think there's anything more to it.
00:59:11Sometimes the people closest to us surprise us the most.
00:59:15Hey, just wanted to check in.
00:59:21We haven't had any time to talk lately.
00:59:24I've been good.
00:59:24I've just been busy dealing with the supplier crisis.
00:59:27I know.
00:59:27And I'm really grateful for you.
00:59:29You've done so much.
00:59:30I never wanted you to be burdened.
00:59:32I care too much about you.
00:59:39Hey, I have a question.
00:59:41You don't secretly have feelings for me, do you?
00:59:52What if I do?
00:59:55Oh, um.
00:59:58Really?
01:00:00I've put this off for too long.
01:00:03And I need to tell you now.
01:00:06I've loved you since the first time I met you.
01:00:09I still remember that day like it was yesterday.
01:00:14We were just starting college and came to visit the office during summer break.
01:00:19We wore a blue dress and looked like a princess.
01:00:23I was just starting off the company.
01:00:25I come from a humble background, so I never thought I could be with someone like you.
01:00:31Not anymore.
01:00:34I'm stronger.
01:00:36I'm more capable now.
01:00:37I know we should be together here.
01:00:42Noah.
01:00:47I've really only ever seen you as a friend.
01:00:53It's because Joshua's done things for you.
01:00:56I've done more.
01:00:57I love him, okay?
01:01:00We understand each other.
01:01:02Because you're both born with silver spoons in your mouth and I wasn't?
01:01:06You know it's not that.
01:01:08I just, I have a really strong feeling about him.
01:01:12I'm...
01:01:13Which is not for me.
01:01:17Noah, I'm sorry.
01:01:18I didn't mean to lead you on.
01:01:21And it wasn't my intention to hurt you.
01:01:27It's okay.
01:01:30I understand.
01:01:33Just needed to hear it from you.
01:01:36Yep.
01:01:36Dwayne, double down on the plan.
01:01:45There's no going back now.
01:01:52Noah.
01:01:52Noah.
01:01:55What brings you here?
01:01:56I think it's time for your company to reconsider its partnership with Gerber.
01:01:59I'm not sure what you're implying.
01:02:02It's simple.
01:02:03Harper Medical Devices is the biggest supplier for Gerber Corporation.
01:02:07If you cut ties with Gerber, it'll deal a critical blow to them.
01:02:13So, you're the one behind the scheme.
01:02:18Why would I go along with it?
01:02:21The question is, why wouldn't you?
01:02:23You and I are alike, Susie.
01:02:25I always love people who don't love us back.
01:02:28I've already let it go.
01:02:30Why let it go when you still have a chance?
01:02:33If me and the Gerber family are out of the company,
01:02:36the Lane family will end a business alliance.
01:02:38Joshua and Mia will get divorced.
01:02:42You and I can finally be with them.
01:02:48Join me.
01:02:49Together we can make sure we aren't ignoring it anymore.
01:02:55So, Mia.
01:02:55We've heard smaller suppliers are terminating contracts.
01:03:00Trust me, we have the situation under control.
01:03:02That's not what I heard.
01:03:03The rumor is Harper Medical Devices pulling out.
01:03:07How do you explain this?
01:03:09I assure you, we're addressing the concerns,
01:03:11but our relationship with our suppliers has never been stronger.
01:03:14As one of the largest shareholders,
01:03:16I have complete faith in Mia's leadership.
01:03:19These rumors are just that.
01:03:21Rumors.
01:03:21Rumors.
01:03:21Rumors.
01:03:21Rumors.
01:03:21Rumors.
01:03:21Rumors.
01:03:21Rumors.
01:03:21Rumors.
01:03:21Rumors.
01:03:22Rumors.
01:03:22Rumors.
01:03:23Rumors.
01:03:23Rumors.
01:03:23Rumors.
01:03:24Rumors.
01:03:24Rumors.
01:03:25Rumors.
01:03:25The rumor was right.
01:03:30Harper Medical Devices decided to terminate the contract with us.
01:03:33But there's still hope.
01:03:35I've convinced Harper to continue their partnership with us.
01:03:39But only if I become the new CEO.
01:03:43It's time for a change in leadership.
01:03:45Someone who could steer this company in the right direction.
01:03:47So I've brought Susie Harper with me, the acting CEO of Harper Medical Devices.
01:03:55Susie will tell you all that she would like Mia Gerber to resign.
01:03:58Actually, I think there's been a misunderstanding.
01:04:03Harper Medical Devices never intended to terminate our contracts with Gerber Corporation.
01:04:09And any rumor we're suggesting otherwise is false.
01:04:12Furthermore, I believe in Mia's leadership and the direction that she's taking this company.
01:04:20Thank you, Susie.
01:04:22I owe you a big one.
01:04:24You don't owe me anything.
01:04:26I just want Joshua and the person he loves to be happy.
01:04:29And I have evidence that Noah Balani has been conspiring with former ousted executive Dwayne Kaiser to sabotage the company.
01:04:48Mr. Balani, your actions have endangered the company and everybody in it.
01:04:54You're therefore terminated immediately.
01:04:59It's quite the view.
01:05:24I've thought a lot about what happened.
01:05:27And I wanted to say sorry.
01:05:29I should have been clearer.
01:05:32I didn't mean to lead you on.
01:05:36I was lost, Mia.
01:05:38My actions.
01:05:39My obsession.
01:05:42I'm sorry for everything.
01:05:47We both made mistakes.
01:05:50We're just glad we can put it all behind us.
01:05:54You were a good friend, Noah.
01:05:57You were more than a friend in me, Mia.
01:05:59I've learned to let go.
01:06:05I just want you to be happy.
01:06:09I am.
01:06:12I hope you find your happiness, too.
01:06:16Take care, Noah.
01:06:20Me, too.
01:06:21We are gathered here today to witness the reaffirmation of vows between Mia and Joshua Lane.
01:06:45Joshua, our marriage was out of necessity, but you've become my partner, my rock, my best friend.
01:06:58Mia, you've given me the gift of a real family.
01:07:01I will vow to cherish and love you forever.
01:07:03Julia, this is just the beginning of our forever.
01:07:05This is just the beginning of our forever.
01:07:07This is just the beginning of our forever.
