00:00:00Today's biggest news, Jonathan Whiteford, the city's golden bachelor, is set to marry
00:00:19his longtime fiancee, Julie Miller, uniting New York's most elite families.
00:00:23This is Amber Wilson from J.K.R. News.
00:00:30Mr. Whiteford, your meeting is in 30 minutes.
00:00:41You smoking cigarettes?
00:00:44It's an important meeting.
00:00:46We need to get ready.
00:00:48It could be a little softer in the morning.
00:00:51Nolan likes a buzzkill.
00:00:54Good morning to you, too.
00:01:00I had never had Mediterranean food before, so he immediately takes me to this restaurant
00:01:04on 45th and...
00:01:05Mmm, Jonathan, he's quite a romantic.
00:01:08And then what?
00:01:10Oh.
00:01:11Maple, right?
00:01:13Sorry I didn't mean to take your seat.
00:01:14Come join us.
00:01:16We were just chatting about my amazing weekend with Jonathan.
00:01:19Oh, Maple would know.
00:01:20She schedules everything for Jonathan.
00:01:22Oh, right, his personal assistant.
00:01:27It's nice to meet you.
00:01:28I'm Julie Miller, Jonathan's fiancee.
00:01:31Nice to meet you, Miss Miller.
00:01:34Being his assistant doesn't mean getting personal.
00:01:38Take this as a...
00:01:39Oh, wait.
00:01:41I've read so many wonderful things about you, Mabel.
00:01:45Julie.
00:01:45Julie.
00:01:46What are you doing here?
00:01:57It's just a surprise visit for my lovely fiancée.
00:02:03Julie, I thought we discussed about keeping boundaries.
00:02:06In front of everyone, play the part, Jonathan.
00:02:09We're engaged, remember?
00:02:12Mabel, are you ready for the meeting?
00:02:13Yes, everything's prepared.
00:02:16Good, I want you to take the lead this time.
00:02:18Lead the meeting?
00:02:19Yes, you've earned it.
00:02:22Feel up for it?
00:02:23Absolutely.
00:02:27Thank you, Mr. Whiteford.
00:02:28I don't need formalities.
00:02:29Come on, let's go.
00:02:30We're going to be late.
00:02:34Always work first with him, huh?
00:02:36Woo-hoo.
00:02:43Congratulations on nailing the pitch, Mabel.
00:02:56Well, I learned from the best.
00:02:58Is he as usual, Jonathan?
00:03:17Mom!
00:03:17I thought we agreed on calling first.
00:03:22Since when do I need permission to see my son, hmm?
00:03:26What's the matter?
00:03:26We are hosting a joint family dinner with the Millers.
00:03:32You and Julie are expected to be there.
00:03:33We agreed to delay the engagement.
00:03:35This is not up for debate.
00:03:37You will attend the family dinner.
00:03:43And you should join us well, Mabel.
00:03:46A toast.
00:04:05To the union.
00:04:06Yes.
00:04:10Mabel, can you pull me some wine?
00:04:12Mabel's a guest.
00:04:13Of course.
00:04:14Of course.
00:04:15Miss Miller?
00:04:16A soon-to-be Mrs. Whiteford.
00:04:19Dad, I'm still your daughter.
00:04:21We are so excited to welcome you into our family.
00:04:24This is the first joyful dinner we've had since Fiona.
00:04:35With Jonathan and Julie together.
00:04:41It almost feels like Fiona is with us here again.
00:04:47Mom.
00:04:49We are so looking forward to this marriage.
00:04:52Yeah.
00:04:55I'm full.
00:04:57Please enjoy.
00:04:57You're okay?
00:05:15Oh, I'm so sorry.
00:05:18I thought you were someone else.
00:05:20Who are you looking for?
00:05:22Jonathan Whiteford.
00:05:23The owner of the mansion.
00:05:26You, uh, must be his girlfriend.
00:05:29No, just his assistant.
00:05:31I see.
00:05:32I'm Ryan.
00:05:33My father is the gardener here.
00:05:35I know the house really well.
00:05:36I actually may be able to help you.
00:05:38Jonathan has a few favorite spots around here.
00:05:41Though he doesn't visit much nowadays,
00:05:43he does have quite a few properties.
00:05:45Yes, he prefers to live alone.
00:05:48Is that so?
00:05:49Oh, good.
00:05:50You've met.
00:05:50I was thinking of setting you two up on a date.
00:05:55You make a cute couple.
00:06:06Petite?
00:06:07Yes, Mabel.
00:06:09Ryan's a fine young man,
00:06:10and you're a diligent worker.
00:06:13You make a good match.
00:06:14Well, it's a kind offer,
00:06:16but I'm not interested in dating anyone right now.
00:06:19Well, no effects.
00:06:21None taken.
00:06:23Anyway, I should go find Jonathan.
00:06:24He has a very early meeting.
00:06:29Mabel, you're a smart girl.
00:06:33I know how busy you've been serving my son.
00:06:36What fun you've had.
00:06:38I don't understand.
00:06:39Let me clarify.
00:06:41You're barely a side dish.
00:06:43Now the main course is served.
00:06:44Stay away from my son.
00:06:49Or lose your position at the company
00:06:51and be blacklisted elsewhere.
00:06:53Have I made myself clear?
00:06:59Now, about you and Ryan.
00:07:02You're quite the pair.
00:07:04I can foresee a wedding in the near future.
00:07:06Morning.
00:07:25The files are ready for you to sign.
00:07:28Were you okay last night?
00:07:36What's on my schedule for today?
00:07:41One meeting in the morning,
00:07:43two in the afternoon,
00:07:45and Julie wants a dinner date.
00:07:49I've set up calendar alerts.
00:07:51You're wearing a new perfume today.
00:08:07You have plaids later?
00:08:09Yes.
00:08:10Miss Whiteford set me up for a date.
00:08:12It's after work.
00:08:14A date?
00:08:17Are you joking?
00:08:18You're not the only one
00:08:20inclined for a bit of romance,
00:08:22Jonathan.
00:08:33Before we start,
00:08:34you should know that
00:08:35I am a messy eater.
00:08:38And I hate cats.
00:08:39I'm also indifferent to
00:08:41humanity and climate change.
00:08:44We can just agree that
00:08:45this wasn't a match.
00:08:46And that's your strategy for tonight?
00:08:50Tell me more about yourself.
00:08:51What do you want to know?
00:08:52Family?
00:08:53My mom died,
00:08:54and my father is a gambler.
00:08:57You'd inherit his debts at the altar.
00:09:00Delightful company you are.
00:09:02I'm a walking old flag.
00:09:03Who knows?
00:09:04I might even become an abuser.
00:09:06An abuser?
00:09:08Do you use ropes?
00:09:10What?
00:09:11You see,
00:09:11I enjoy being tied up,
00:09:13so I'm rather intrigued.
00:09:15Weirdo.
00:09:18Says Miss Monster date.
00:09:21Meatball.
00:09:30You're Jack's son.
00:09:33He was such a talented gardener.
00:09:36A favorite servant of mine growing up.
00:09:38If you don't mind,
00:09:39we're on a date.
00:09:41Oh, and having fun, I see.
00:09:42We would be.
00:09:45Without any interruptions.
00:09:57I'm on my way.
00:09:59Okay.
00:10:00Sorry.
00:10:00I have to go.
00:10:04Meatball.
00:10:10Excuse me.
00:10:10I am here for my father, Mr. Morris.
00:10:12What happened?
00:10:13He's stable now.
00:10:15The predators got rough with him.
00:10:17Broke a couple ribs,
00:10:18but he's breathing.
00:10:20How do I pay for the bills?
00:10:23They've been paid for.
00:10:25By whom?
00:10:26Ryan.
00:10:30Ryan.
00:10:31What are you doing here?
00:10:33To finish the date.
00:10:34I'm starving.
00:10:36It's a very expensive date.
00:10:40I'll pay you back.
00:10:41Later.
00:10:42For now,
00:10:42let's get something to eat.
00:10:43So, you grew up in the Whiteford Mansion?
00:10:57Yeah, I did.
00:10:58I helped my dad with the gardens,
00:11:00and we planted exotic flowers from around the world.
00:11:04Paradise for plant geeks, for sure.
00:11:06Sounds super nerdy.
00:11:07You were serious about your father's debts, weren't you?
00:11:16He was a gambler.
00:11:19He's changed, but it still haunts us.
00:11:22I just hope to one day settle the debts.
00:11:25You were not the terrible person you made yourself out to be.
00:11:28You've known me for one day.
00:11:30Hold your conclusions, Sherlock.
00:11:34Well, this is me.
00:11:36Um, goodnight, nerd.
00:11:41Goodnight, monster date.
00:11:51It's late.
00:11:53Where you been?
00:11:59Were you out with him all night?
00:12:02It's my personal time.
00:12:04I don't have to report everything to you.
00:12:06So, it went well, then.
00:12:07Your mother set us up, Jonathan.
00:12:09How could I refuse?
00:12:11Good.
00:12:12So, then, it was all just for show.
00:12:14Well, I actually had a really nice time.
00:12:16I might consider a second date.
00:12:19I can still smell Julie's perfume.
00:12:21Then come shower it off me.
00:12:24You went on a date with another man.
00:12:26And you took another woman to a restaurant that I recommended.
00:12:28Jealous?
00:12:29Jealous?
00:12:29Look.
00:12:30Not as much as you.
00:12:31Oh, my God.
00:13:01Morning.
00:13:06Coffee or tea?
00:13:09Uh, coffee.
00:13:15You never make me breakfast.
00:13:19Last night must have been record-breaking.
00:13:23Come here.
00:13:27I'm breaking up with you.
00:13:32What do you mean?
00:13:33Well, more of an ending than a breakup, really.
00:13:36We need to stop.
00:13:37Whatever this is.
00:13:39What about our last night?
00:13:42Consider it a breakup gift.
00:13:43Breakup? We weren't even together.
00:13:45Exactly.
00:13:46Wait.
00:13:50Shouldn't be too hard to move on.
00:14:05Happy 7th Anniversary, Mayhem!
00:14:07Anniversary?
00:14:10I mean, 7 years old Webber.
00:14:13Time flies, doesn't it?
00:14:14Wow, it really has been that long.
00:14:16I have to cut the cake, people.
00:14:18Hey!
00:14:18You guys are so sweet.
00:14:19What are you doing?
00:14:20What are you doing?
00:14:22Boss, it's her special day.
00:14:24So?
00:14:26We have the meeting with Harbor in an hour.
00:14:29Do your jobs!
00:14:29We have the meeting with Harbor in an hour.
00:14:59We have the meeting with Harbor in an hour.
00:15:02We have the meeting with Harbor in an hour.
00:15:06Why are the meeting with Harbor in a preview?
00:15:14What are you doing?
00:15:15Yeah, wePhone did.
00:15:16What's up?
00:15:17We were right in an hour.
00:15:19You are listening to Harbor in an hour.
00:15:21You are listening to Harbor in an hour.
00:15:23I generally have the meeting with Harbor.
00:15:24I am here to be at the q&a's.
00:15:26All I am going to do is to fill in an hour.
00:15:27When might you see us?
00:15:32Tell me no one was.
00:15:45Happy anniversary, Mabel.
00:15:53It was fun while it lasted.
00:15:57Hello, this is Mabel.
00:16:03Evening, Mabel.
00:16:04Ryan, what an honor.
00:16:07You want to grab dinner together?
00:16:08Just as friends, of course.
00:16:09I'm not up for another dramatic date.
00:16:13Sure, why not?
00:16:15Where are we going?
00:16:16I know the perfect spot.
00:16:17I'll text you.
00:16:18See you soon.
00:16:23I'm so glad we got to try this place again.
00:16:25This is amazing.
00:16:27I know.
00:16:28I think it's got some drugs in it or something.
00:16:30It'd be weird if they didn't.
00:16:31How could it be so addictive?
00:16:34How have you been lately?
00:16:36Can't complain.
00:16:37Because you signed an NDA?
00:16:39Or because you are happy?
00:16:41The latter.
00:16:43Although, if I did sign an NDA, I couldn't really share otherwise.
00:16:47Goodbye.
00:16:48This is true.
00:16:50Hey, I asked you out on a date for a reason.
00:16:53I think we would make excellent business partners.
00:16:56Business partners?
00:16:57Yeah.
00:16:58Well, I was just saying, our first date was rather chaotic.
00:17:01So I wasn't able to properly introduce myself to you.
00:17:05I'm Ryan Anderson.
00:17:07I'm the founder of Nova Tech.
00:17:09And I would like for you to join us as head of the creative strategies.
00:17:13Nova Tech?
00:17:18Nova Tech?
00:17:21But I thought you said you were...
00:17:22The gardener's son.
00:17:23Yes, I still am.
00:17:24But I'm not defined by what my father does.
00:17:28Even if Barbara thinks so.
00:17:31After years of education and, well, hard work,
00:17:34I find myself at MIT and started my own company.
00:17:37It's good to own something of your own, right?
00:17:40That's incredible, Ryan.
00:17:42And I'm grateful for the opportunity,
00:17:44but I already have a job.
00:17:46And I'm just an assistant.
00:17:47So I'm sure there are other people much more qualified than me out there.
00:17:52You're not just anyone.
00:17:54You're the key success to the Whitefords project.
00:17:57It's time for you to get outside of Jonathan's shadow.
00:18:01So, cheers to chasing what you truly deserve.
00:18:17Miss Whiteford, um, Jonathan's left for the evening.
00:18:25I'm here to see you.
00:18:27How was everything with Ryan?
00:18:30It was pleasant.
00:18:31Thank you for the introduction.
00:18:33When do you plan to marry him?
00:18:35We've only just met.
00:18:39I've warned you.
00:18:41No marriage.
00:18:44No job at Whiteford Tech.
00:18:46And you will be banned from the industry.
00:18:50I've ended things with Jonathan.
00:18:52Then marry Ryan to prove it.
00:18:54I've done my research as well, Mabel.
00:18:59Leave my son,
00:19:01and I'll clear all your father's debts.
00:19:04If not,
00:19:06those seeking him will find him.
00:19:10Perhaps Jonathan is the one who needs guidance,
00:19:13not me.
00:19:14I don't think you understand the situation.
00:19:18You are nothing to Jonathan.
00:19:21At most,
00:19:21a shadow of his past pain.
00:19:25A reminder of a heartbreak.
00:19:28What do you mean?
00:19:29You don't know, do you?
00:19:34Mary Ryan,
00:19:36it's my last warning.
00:19:37Did I miss a meeting?
00:19:56Uh, no, I just,
00:20:02your driver couldn't get a hold of you.
00:20:03He was concerned.
00:20:06Mr. Whiteford,
00:20:06it's October 5th.
00:20:07Shit, shit.
00:20:08You never,
00:20:09always take the day off.
00:20:11It's okay.
00:20:13The car's out front.
00:20:13No, no, it's not okay.
00:20:14I never forget.
00:20:17Just clear everything for today.
00:20:19Okay.
00:20:20I've kept your calendar clear,
00:20:21as always.
00:20:22Okay, thank you.
00:20:23The car, Mr. Whiteford.
00:20:26Right.
00:20:27I'll, uh, see you.
00:20:28At the office?
00:20:28Right.
00:20:34Hello?
00:20:35Ava, where are you?
00:20:37Our server is dead!
00:20:38Oh, uh, okay,
00:20:39I'm on my way.
00:20:45The entire server crashed.
00:20:47Where is Mr. Whiteford?
00:20:49Hey, what happened?
00:20:50We are under attack.
00:20:51We need a system reboot.
00:20:52Where is Mr. Whiteford?
00:20:53We need his admin code.
00:20:55Now.
00:20:55Okay, he's out of the office.
00:20:57Um, let me just try contacting him, okay?
00:21:02We need that code.
00:21:03Do you have access to it?
00:21:04No, that code is highly confidential.
00:21:06Jonathan is the sole owner.
00:21:08Um, let me try.
00:21:09Okay.
00:21:17What else?
00:21:18We're completely offline.
00:21:20Come on, Mabel.
00:21:20You know you're the best.
00:21:21Yeah, a moment.
00:21:25Try Fiona.
00:21:27F-I-O-N-A.
00:21:31Fiona.
00:21:32Give it a shot.
00:21:36Fiona.
00:21:37Give it a shot.
00:21:38Remember that awkward dinner at the Whitefruits?
00:21:46Since Fiona, you are nothing to Jonathan.
00:21:51At most, a shadow of his past pain.
00:21:55A reminder of our heartbreak.
00:21:56Hello, Jonathan.
00:22:08Good to see you.
00:22:10How may I help you?
00:22:13Did Jonathan model this whole thing after you?
00:22:16Oh, no.
00:22:17That's not Mabel.
00:22:21That's my sister, Fiona.
00:22:22Jonathan's first love.
00:22:39Next, Mabel Morris.
00:22:40Next, Mabel Morris.
00:22:40Hello.
00:22:56You know, coding demands intense focus and absolute silence.
00:23:02That's why having a capable assistant to help with other things like interviews is crucial.
00:23:15Shona.
00:23:24Um, I'm Mabel Morris, Mr. Whiteford.
00:23:28Here's my resume.
00:23:32Mabel.

00:30:20misunderstanding
00:30:21oh enough julie cut it
00:30:23fiona was sweet
00:30:26but too naive for a world
00:30:30her innocence was a liability
00:30:32i tried separating jonathan and fiona
00:30:35for years
00:30:36but jonathan was so invested
00:30:38even ignoring this family to pursue his little
00:30:42tech project
00:30:43all encouraged by fiona
00:30:44luckily his project succeeded
00:30:47but not without him taking down his father's legacy first
00:30:51we could have been so much more influential so powerful
00:30:55but just when i thought all was lost

00:47:20you know
00:47:20about the product launch
00:47:22my only concern
00:47:23is the interface
00:47:24it's not user friendly enough
00:47:25Mabel
00:47:26it's okay to be upset
00:47:27with Jonathan
00:47:28no need to hide it
00:47:29he's just a competitor now
00:47:31speaking of which
00:47:32the new app at White4Tech
00:47:33is dominating the charts
00:47:34we should look into that
00:47:35can I ask you something?
00:47:37if you're going to say
00:47:38something irritating
00:47:39I'm not interested

00:49:15a few thoughts?
00:49:19it's good
00:49:20surely as a leader
00:49:23in this industry
00:49:24you have more to offer than good
00:49:26I don't think it's my place to say more
00:49:29if we always play it safe
00:49:30we'll never achieve perfection
00:49:31you've grown a lot Mabel
00:49:36and it's a strong product
00:49:39but not yet a market leader
00:49:41but there's potential
00:49:43your media needs more clarity
00:49:46apparently it's affecting your overall product
00:49:48you need to improve the interactive system
00:49:51it's far too average
00:49:52and the interface needs to be more user-friendly
00:49:55you know this
00:49:56but overall
00:49:58truly
00:49:59truly
00:50:00well done

00:50:05professional boundaries
00:50:07Mr. Whiteford

00:53:35if you're interested
00:53:36okay fine
00:53:42what is it
00:53:43the interface needs a better visual hierarchy
00:53:44the uniform font size is causing confusion
00:53:47but
00:53:47a little variation can help
00:53:50you're right
00:53:51we wanted simplicity
00:53:54but
00:53:54maybe too much though
00:53:56it's a good approach
00:53:57but
00:53:58you need to experiment
