00:00:00Cheers, may I be full of surprises.
00:00:07Ho, ho, ho! I have a gift for you.
00:00:10Jessica, you have inherited this mansion,
00:00:13along with your father's business empire and assets worth over a billion dollars.
00:00:18I just need a signature from you.
00:00:20Oh, and a hundred and five million dollars in cash.
00:00:27We're rich!
00:00:29Let me hold on to you for your baby.
00:00:32You know, my whole life I grew up in foster care,
00:00:37moving from place to place,
00:00:39and now I finally have a place that I can call home.
00:00:44It was real great to win the jackpot.
00:00:46Now my only wish is to reunite with my mother.
00:00:50You bastard child!
00:00:52You will never reunite with your mother.
00:00:54We made sure that that whore is gone forever.
00:00:58My mother is gone because of you?
00:01:00Well, we had a little help from James Thornton,
00:01:03the most powerful man in the Thornton family.
00:01:07Time for you to go back to your poor little country, sis.
00:01:10Yes, ma'am.
00:01:11U.S.C.I.S.
00:01:12The reviews were expired years ago.
00:01:14You're being deported.
00:01:15What?
00:01:16No, there must be some mistake.
00:01:18Adrian, didn't you help me file my immigration paperwork?
00:01:21Whoops.
00:01:22Well, I guess I screwed up.
00:01:24What?
00:01:27Hey, baby.
00:01:28Hey.
00:01:29Adrian, are you cheating on me?
00:01:31With her?
00:01:32Choose the right side, babe.
00:01:34We'll never win against them.
00:01:35It's true.
00:01:36Um, according to the terms of the will,
00:01:39non-citizens are not eligible to inherit the estate.
00:01:43Everything will pass to your next of kin, Lisa and Kristen Miller.
00:01:48You thought you could get rich overnight?
00:01:51Keep dreaming.
00:01:53Seriously?
00:01:54Bon voyage, sis.
00:02:04The boss is a surgeon.
00:02:05They're about to deport a woman named Jessica Miller.
00:02:09Jessica Miller?
00:02:12It's her.
00:02:21Oh, thank God you're alive.
00:02:22She's so beautiful and kind.
00:02:23The girl I've always dreamed of.
00:02:27She saved my life once.
00:02:28I owe her.
00:02:33Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.
00:02:35Jessica?
00:02:36Do I know you?
00:02:37She doesn't remember me.
00:02:44I'm Daniel.
00:02:45You're a lawyer.
00:02:46Just pretend we know each other.
00:02:47If I can get you out of here.
00:02:49We've spoken to the judge,
00:02:50and Miss Miller should be released immediately.
00:02:52Wait, wait.
00:02:53You can't report her.
00:02:54She is about to marry a U.S. citizen.
00:02:57Who's the lucky guy?
00:02:58I am.
00:02:59I marry her.
00:03:01A fake marriage won't save her.
00:03:02Our marriage is real.
00:03:03Mm-hmm.
00:03:04Yeah.
00:03:05A hundred percent real.
00:03:06Prove it then.
00:03:07That's it?
00:03:08You call that a kiss?
00:03:09What?
00:03:10What?
00:03:11What?
00:03:12What?
00:03:13What?
00:03:14What?
00:03:15What?
00:03:16What?
00:03:17What?
00:03:18What?
00:03:19What?
00:03:20What?
00:03:21What?
00:03:22That's it? You call that a kiss?
00:03:38Need more proof, officer? Look, this guy is a lawyer to some of the most important families in town.
00:03:45And if you don't let her go, then he'll make sure you lose your damn job.
00:03:49Fine, you can have her.
00:03:51Thank you, officer.
00:03:56Guys, I think we're good.
00:03:59It's not over.
00:04:03We'll be checking your marital status and conducting interviews.
00:04:06And there are a few very specific requirements you should know.
00:04:10Make sure you two are staying in the same house and sleeping in the same bed.
00:04:14Or it's game over.
00:04:16You have to help me deal with my stepsister and her mom.
00:04:22They're trying to get rid of me.
00:04:24And they've already stolen my fortune.
00:04:26And they made my mother disappear.
00:04:32Deal.
00:04:33What?
00:04:35That's it?
00:04:36This lily stands for loyalties and new beginnings.
00:04:42Something that I want with you.
00:04:44Now I know it's rushed.
00:04:47But I promise you, I will buy you a proper ring soon.
00:04:51From now on, let's make every Christmas our own.
00:05:03To fill it.
00:05:04Full of memories.
00:05:05You can't do this!
00:05:19Jess, it's okay.
00:05:20Just wait here.
00:05:21I'll handle it.
00:05:22I'll handle it.
00:05:26What?
00:05:29What?
00:05:31Why are you helping that girl?
00:05:33Kristen Miller is our ally.
00:05:35And she wants her the hell out of this picture.
00:05:37It's too late, Dad.
00:05:38We already got married.
00:05:39Are you insane?
00:05:41Did you forget you're supposed to marry Ashley?
00:05:47Daniel Thornton.
00:05:49My mother is gone because of you?
00:05:52Well, we had a little help from James Thornton.
00:05:55The most powerful man in THE Thornton family.
00:05:59Wait.
00:06:00I recognize that face.
00:06:02From the newspaper, that was James Thornton.
00:06:05From the Thornton family.
00:06:06The family responsible for my mother's disappearance.
00:06:14Stop telling me what I can and cannot do.
00:06:16She saved my life.
00:06:17I owe it to her.
00:06:18Roll the hell up, Daniel.
00:06:20You need to remember your position as the heir to our family.
00:06:24And you need to divorce that girl.
00:06:26Now.
00:06:27I'm doing this to clean your mess up.
00:06:30Just leave us alone.
00:06:39Sorry about that.
00:06:41Is your name Daniel Thornton?
00:06:44Yeah.
00:06:45The Thornton family are responsible for the disappearance of my mother.
00:06:52I have been searching for her my entire life.
00:06:56Jess.
00:06:57Yeah.
00:06:58I can explain.
00:06:59I'm not marrying Thornton.
00:07:00Wait, wait, wait.
00:07:01Jess, Jess.
00:07:02I'm not who you think I am.
00:07:03I have nothing to do with that family.
00:07:05Oh, really?
00:07:06Because your name is right here.
00:07:07On the marriage stack.
00:07:08I share the last name Thornton.
00:07:11And I am not one of them.
00:07:13Thornton is a common name.
00:07:15Just an ordinary guy.
00:07:16Really?
00:07:17Well, I don't believe you.
00:07:18I saw you talking to James Thornton.
00:07:21Is he your father?
00:07:26Is he your father?
00:07:27No.
00:07:28He's not my father.
00:07:29He was threatening to drive you out of the country and I was not going to have anything
00:07:32to do with it.
00:07:33Jess.
00:07:34I'm on your side.
00:07:35You're not one of them.
00:07:38I'm sorry.
00:07:41It's okay.
00:07:42Don't worry about it.
00:07:44Well, you have a nice apartment.
00:07:50Welcome.
00:07:53Is that your Labrador?
00:07:55That looks exactly like mine.
00:07:56I got mine as a Christmas present when I was nine.
00:07:59No way.
00:08:00I got mine as a Christmas present when I was nine.
00:08:02It's crazy.
00:08:07Jess, we're going to have to sleep in the same room together just in case immigration ambush us.
00:08:11Yeah, but are you sure you're okay sleeping on the carpet?
00:08:15I mean, you've done so much for me already and I just-
00:08:18Jess, please.
00:08:19I insist.
00:08:20We made a deal, remember.
00:08:22I also want to thank you for giving me the chance to get rich.
00:08:27It's okay, Daniel.
00:08:41You're spying on me.
00:08:42No.
00:08:43No, no, no, no.
00:08:44I was- I was just passing by and just-
00:08:46Do you need anything?
00:08:47I was joking.
00:08:48Uh, yeah.
00:08:49Could you, uh, uh, could you, uh-
00:09:05No. No, no, no, no. I was, I was just passing by and just, do you need anything?
00:09:13I was joking. Uh, yeah, could you, uh, pass me the towel? It's just hanging up next to the door.
00:09:20Uh, yeah, sure, sure.
00:09:25Thanks.
00:09:35Oh, my God. What? I just got fired. What?
00:09:41Uh, wait, Jess, let me go with you.
00:09:47Yeah.
00:09:58Sam, please, don't fire me.
00:10:00I'm sorry, Jess, but your immigration issue put us in a tough spot.
00:10:06I worked for this company for years.
00:10:10I'm sorry, Jess. There's nothing I can do. I'm sorry.
00:10:20Look who's here. Someone who just got fired. This suits you.
00:10:30It was you. I should have known you were behind this.
00:10:35I'm not going to let you stay here and ruin things. I'm going to take away everything you have, sister.
00:10:42Uh, you just made a big mistake, sir.
00:10:46Who are you?
00:10:47My name is Daniel Thornton, son of James Thornton, the chairman of Thornton Enterprise.
00:10:54Oh, uh, Mr. Thornton, uh, welcome.
00:11:00What brings you here?
00:11:02Well, I have some good news for you.
00:11:06Jessica Miller, she's just closed a billion-dollar deal.
00:11:11Take a look.
00:11:12Oh, my God.
00:11:28It's real.
00:11:30Absolutely.
00:11:31With her hard work and dedication, she's made this possible.
00:11:35It's a real shame you're going to lose such a valuable employee.
00:11:38Oh, uh, Mr. Thornton, um, I have made a huge mistake.
00:11:45Uh, Jessica will stay.
00:11:48Good.
00:11:50And, uh, make sure nobody knows we had this conversation.
00:11:58Jessica!
00:12:00You should have told me!
00:12:02What are you talking about, Sam?
00:12:08Jessica!
00:12:09You secured a huge deal for the company!
00:12:14Did you not just fire her?
00:12:16I changed my mind.
00:12:18Jessica's saying, actually, she's being promoted to sales manager.
00:12:25Can't afford to lose someone as valuable as, like, her?
00:12:28Great.
00:12:30Thanks, Sam.
00:12:31This is not over.
00:12:38I can't believe it.
00:12:39Jessica kept her job, and she gets promoted.
00:12:42Don't worry, Lisa.
00:12:43I just spoke with James Thornton, and he had the lawyer change the will in our favor.
00:12:49Jessica will get nothing.
00:12:51Oh, my God.
00:12:53That's fantastic.
00:12:54No way.
00:13:13Jessica?
00:13:14How's work?
00:13:16Did you get your job back?
00:13:18Daniel, I need a lawyer.
00:13:20Well, look who decided to show up.
00:13:30Too bad for you.
00:13:32Just turns out Daddy's will left you nothing.
00:13:34I knew all along Robert wouldn't leave anything for this little, pathetic, bastard child.
00:13:41You are out of luck.
00:13:43You are out of luck.
00:13:44Well, that's a lie.
00:13:46You showed me the will.
00:13:47And I signed the documents.
00:13:50I'm sorry, Jessica.
00:13:52I've just discovered a revised will.
00:13:54It supports Kristen and Lisa's claims.
00:13:59Just a thought.
00:14:00So, who is this?
00:14:02He's my lawyer.
00:14:03And a damn good one.
00:14:04Oh.
00:14:05You know, Jess, I didn't realize you had enough money to pay for a fancy little lawyer.
00:14:11You sleep with them?
00:14:13Patrick, can I have a word with you outside?
00:14:17Talk all you want.
00:14:18It won't change anything.
00:14:19All right, Patrick.
00:14:30I'm going to keep this short and sweet.
00:14:32I know you changed the will to favor Kristen and Lisa.
00:14:35I know what you're talking about, Mr. Thornton.
00:14:37The revised will solid.
00:14:39Ted found an email exchange with my father.
00:14:42Here, take a look.
00:14:44You've been caught, Patrick.
00:14:46Honor of the will, I'll report you to the Bar Association.
00:14:49You'll lose your license and any chance of practicing law again.
00:14:52That goes against your father's wishes.
00:14:55You don't understand the position he put me in.
00:14:56I'll deal with my father.
00:14:58Don't you worry about that.
00:15:00You just worry about doing the right thing.
00:15:07Um, this revised will is a fake.
00:15:10The original will stand.
00:15:11What the hell are you doing?
00:15:13He's doing the right thing.
00:15:14Jessica, you've got your inheritance back.
00:15:20Congratulations.
00:15:22Oh, my God.
00:15:25Patrick, do what you are supposed to do,
00:15:28or James will make sure you face the consequences.
00:15:31Don't listen to it, Patrick.
00:15:36I'll deal with James Thornton.
00:15:38Who the hell do you think you are?
00:15:41James Thornton is one of the most powerful men in this town.
00:15:45I sure can.
00:15:46Isn't that right, Patrick?
00:15:48Yes.
00:15:49The original will stands.
00:15:50No!
00:15:51You are crazy!
00:15:52No, I'm not.
00:15:53According to the original will,
00:15:55Jessica stands to inherit this mansion.
00:15:58Kristen, you're out.
00:16:00I think you two should leave.
00:16:02You homewrecker.
00:16:03Just like your mother.
00:16:05I will not allow violence.
00:16:08I didn't come here to argue over a house and assets.
00:16:14I came here to be recognized as an actual member of this family.
00:16:18Yeah, well, it's easy for you to say you're getting everything.
00:16:20You don't know how lucky you are, Lisa!
00:16:22You grew up with a father who loved you.
00:16:25I had none.
00:16:26And you took my mother away from me,
00:16:29and I still don't know where she is!
00:16:32You two don't deserve this mansion.
00:16:35And I would rather give it away to charity
00:16:37than to see the two of you living in.
00:16:42Oh, I've been locked.
00:16:47You two should pack your things up.
00:16:49You have one week to leave this house.
00:16:50Don't listen to it.
00:17:00What the hell were you thinking?
00:17:03Sabotaging my plan?
00:17:04I was just doing the right thing.
00:17:06The right thing?
00:17:08Going against me?
00:17:10Kristen Miller has got no power anymore.
00:17:12Her game is over.
00:17:13I'm sure you didn't come all this way
00:17:16just to argue with me.
00:17:17So what do you want?
00:17:20I just want Jessica to get her mom back.
00:17:24Interesting.
00:17:28What's in it for me?
00:17:30Once Jessica gets her mom back,
00:17:32I'll do whatever you want.
00:17:34Whatever I want?
00:17:36Like what exactly?
00:17:38I'll marry Ashley.
00:17:39You'll marry Ashley?
00:17:44Yeah.
00:17:45You're willing to do that?
00:17:47Yeah.
00:17:47I am.
00:17:50But only if she's reunited with her mother.
00:17:54Okay.
00:17:55Deal.
00:17:57I'll make the arrangements.
00:17:59So you're really in love with this one, huh?
00:18:01Yeah.
00:18:03I am.
00:18:05Okay, kid.
00:18:06I sure hope she's worth it.
00:18:08She is.
00:18:14What's wrong?
00:18:15We have...
00:18:17a guest.
00:18:20Mr. Thornton.
00:18:21Good to see you again.
00:18:23Interview time.
00:18:25Great.
00:18:27You're...
00:18:27When did you two meet?
00:18:31Uh, we met at a friend's party two years ago.
00:18:35What do you say, Jessica?
00:18:37Huh?
00:18:37Oh, yeah, yeah.
00:18:40Mm-hmm.
00:18:41Interesting.
00:18:43And when did you decide to get married?
00:18:45Eight months ago.
00:18:46Six months ago.
00:18:47Six months or eight months?
00:18:49Which one is it?
00:18:50Yeah, eight months ago.
00:18:51Sorry, I just...
00:18:52Sorry, I'm always getting mixed up.
00:18:55Sure.
00:18:56Easy mistake to make.
00:18:58And what's your anniversary date?
00:19:01March 15th.
00:19:03March 15th?
00:19:03March 15th?
00:19:04Shh.
00:19:05All right.
00:19:10Uh...
00:19:10That's it?
00:19:12Yes, Mr. Thornton.
00:19:13I have everything I need.
00:19:15I'll report back to the judges.
00:19:17Oh, wait.
00:19:22Uh...
00:19:22This.
00:19:25How did we do in there?
00:19:29It was...
00:19:31Pretty bad.
00:19:32Look.
00:19:35I'm the son of James Thornton.
00:19:37I know who you are.
00:19:40Uh...
00:19:40Okay.
00:19:43You want to bribe me?
00:19:46Yes.
00:19:47I can't be bribed.
00:19:49Here's one million dollars.
00:19:50Two million dollars.
00:19:57Right.
00:20:02Three.
00:20:03Million dollars.
00:20:04It's tempting, but like I said, you can't bribe me.
00:20:07Please.
00:20:08Can you just give us one more week to prepare?
00:20:11I really want to be with this woman.
00:20:13She means the world to me.
00:20:15She saved my life.
00:20:17I'm not going to take your money, but I'll give you one week.
00:20:19Make it count.
00:20:22Next time, I want to see some genuine affection between you two.
00:20:25If anything seems a bit off, your game's up.
00:20:28Of course.
00:20:30And one more thing.
00:20:32I can tell you two haven't had sex yet.
00:20:35I'm that good, Mr. Daniel.
00:20:38Don't try and fool me.
00:20:45She gave us another chance.
00:20:47Oh, my God.
00:20:48We have one week.
00:20:49To get our story straight.
00:20:51Thank you, Daniel.
00:20:54You've been very, very helpful today.
00:20:57Now, I wanted to make our first Christmas special, so I did a little digging and I found this.
00:21:20What happened?
00:21:21Let me have a look.
00:21:22Let me have a look.
00:21:23Let me have a look.
00:21:27What happened?
00:21:29Let me have a look.
00:21:31Let me have a look.
00:21:32Let me have a look.
00:21:33Let me have a look.
00:21:35Let me have a look.
00:21:48Let me have a look.
00:21:50Let me have a look.
00:21:53entails.
00:21:54Um, I have a festive gift for you, too.
00:22:12Wow, Jess, you look gorgeous.
00:22:17And then I told him that's not how you negotiate.
00:22:25You did it.
00:22:26You did.
00:22:47This could be a problem.
00:23:11Maybe.
00:23:12Maybe not.
00:23:14And that is how you negotiate.
00:23:35You're learning that.
00:23:39It's stuck.
00:23:40Hold on, I've got this.
00:23:54Uh.
00:23:55Oh.
00:23:56Oh.
00:23:57Oh.
00:23:58Oh.
00:23:59Oh.
00:24:00Oh.
00:24:03Oh.
00:24:07Oh.
00:24:14Oh.
00:24:19Oh.
00:24:21Oh.
00:24:26Oh, that much looks familiar.
00:24:56You know, I've seen this before, in the, uh, in a magazine.
00:25:01It looks like one of those, um, Thornton family watches.
00:25:09Is it real?
00:25:10Uh, no.
00:25:13It's fake.
00:25:17You wear a fake watch?
00:25:19Yeah.
00:25:20Okay.
00:25:26I'm so happy, Jess.
00:25:38There's also something I need to tell you about your mom.
00:25:41Oh, my God.
00:25:58Did I just sleep with Daniel last night?
00:26:01I told him it would only be a contract marriage.
00:26:04Good morning.
00:26:14This is the most beautiful morning that I've ever had.
00:26:17Daniel, I'm, I'm so sorry about last night.
00:26:22It was, it wasn't supposed to happen, and I promise it will never happen again.
00:26:27She didn't mean it.
00:26:32Oh, Jessica.
00:26:33Last night was amazing.
00:26:36Uh, yeah, Jess, uh, I get it.
00:26:41It was, uh, it was a one-time thing.
00:26:46Yeah, just like, just a one-time thing.
00:26:49Yeah.
00:26:50Anyway, it's, uh, your big day today.
00:26:56We're the new CEO of the Miller Empire.
00:27:00Thank you for the reminder.
00:27:05But now that you mention it, I'm really scared.
00:27:08Oh, no, Jess, I didn't mean it like that.
00:27:11Uh, what I was meant to say is,
00:27:15I'm gonna help you.
00:27:17I don't know what to do, Mother.
00:27:24That bitch is kicking us out.
00:27:25We still have a chance.
00:27:27That bastard child needs a unanimous vote from the board to be chosen as the next CEO.
00:27:33So we just need a board member to back this up.
00:27:36I will call Richard.
00:27:38Everyone respects Richard's vote,
00:27:39and I will make sure he doesn't vote for her.
00:27:42And I'll dig up all the dirt I can find on her.
00:27:45You go, girl.
00:27:47These clothes are beautiful,
00:28:01but, uh,
00:28:03very expensive.
00:28:05Like this one.
00:28:07That is...
00:28:09$9,000.
00:28:10Jess, don't worry about it.
00:28:13It's on me.
00:28:14Look at it as, uh,
00:28:16my first gift to my wife.
00:28:18You know what?
00:28:18Daniel, I can't let you pay for this.
00:28:21Look, Jess,
00:28:22you're gonna be a CEO,
00:28:23which means you've gotta look the part.
00:28:25Trust me.
00:28:27It's an investment.
00:28:29Mr. Thornton,
00:28:31welcome back.
00:28:31How can I see you today?
00:28:33Come here a lot?
00:28:34Uh, no.
00:28:35Well, of course,
00:28:36Mr. Thornton owns this store.
00:28:38Uh,
00:28:39Jess,
00:28:40why don't you try this one on?
00:28:42You'll look great in it.
00:28:49Wow.
00:28:50Jess,
00:28:50you look
00:28:50amazing.
00:28:53You think so, though?
00:28:54Yeah.
00:28:55this is exactly
00:28:57what a CEO would wear.
00:28:59Absolutely.
00:29:00Great choice.
00:29:01We'll take this one.
00:29:04Something in your mind?
00:29:06Well, it's probably nothing,
00:29:08but it's just
00:29:08that clerk seemed very
00:29:10fond of you.
00:29:12Oh, uh,
00:29:13being friendly
00:29:15is a part of my job.
00:29:16Okay.
00:29:17So that's how
00:29:25you got your lawyer,
00:29:26huh?
00:29:27Now that you mention it,
00:29:29maybe she was
00:29:30a little friendly,
00:29:31but we got a discount.
00:29:34Show on.
00:29:43What a slut.
00:29:47Trust me, Jess.
00:29:51You can do this.
00:29:52Yeah, but what if
00:29:53they don't accept me?
00:29:54They will.
00:29:55Trust me.
00:29:56Just speak from the heart
00:29:57and show your true self.
00:30:00Look at you two
00:30:01little lovebirds.
00:30:05Ethnic.
00:30:08Ted,
00:30:09talk about this later.
00:30:11Okay.
00:30:13You go in.
00:30:14I'll meet you in there
00:30:15soon, okay?
00:30:17Good luck in there, sis.
00:30:25You're gonna need it.
00:30:27You don't have the boats.
00:30:32I know my background
00:30:34doesn't seem very typical
00:30:35of a CEO,
00:30:36but I built myself
00:30:38from the bottom up here.
00:30:40Miller Corporation
00:30:41is a leader
00:30:42in tech
00:30:44and services,
00:30:45reaching industries
00:30:47from healthcare
00:30:48to energy.
00:30:49We have over 10,000 employees
00:30:52worldwide
00:30:54who have worked hard
00:30:56to build this company
00:30:57from the ground up
00:30:58and I was one of them.
00:30:59I know them
00:31:00and I believe that
00:31:02and I believe that I can
00:31:02help lead this company
00:31:04to become
00:31:04everyone's company.
00:31:07Let's proceed to the vote.
00:31:09All in favor?
00:31:14Robert lost his damn mind.
00:31:16He picked his secret child
00:31:17to be the CEO
00:31:19only because of his
00:31:20guilty conscience.
00:31:21Richard, if I may...
00:31:23I'm not done talking.
00:31:25You can't lead us
00:31:26and you're not getting
00:31:28my vote.
00:31:31Richard, if I may speak...
00:31:32Go ahead.
00:31:34But I won't change my mind.
00:31:39Sorry for interrupting everyone,
00:31:41but I have something important
00:31:42to share with you all today.
00:31:43Who the hell are you?
00:31:45Well, Richard,
00:31:46I'm the person
00:31:46who's going to expose you.
00:31:48What did you just say?
00:31:50How do I say this?
00:31:52Uh, you're a sex pervert.
00:31:55What?
00:31:59You see, everyone,
00:32:02this file
00:32:02contains multiple
00:32:05sexual harassment lawsuits
00:32:06against Richard
00:32:07over the past 30 years.
00:32:10Some of them
00:32:11also have ongoing lawsuits.
00:32:13They're all just allegations
00:32:15and they've all been settled.
00:32:16I'm innocent.
00:32:17We've also got in contact
00:32:19with some of the victims
00:32:19and they're willing
00:32:20to come forward and testify.
00:32:21Actually,
00:32:22I have not finished yet.
00:32:24You're also stealing money
00:32:25from the company
00:32:26and we have the financial records
00:32:28to own it.
00:32:34The evidence is clear.
00:32:36He's guilty.
00:32:39Okay then,
00:32:40let's all vote for
00:32:41Richard Donald's immediate suspension.
00:32:43All in favor?
00:32:49We have 15 books.
00:32:52The board has decided.
00:32:53Richard Donald
00:32:54is officially removed
00:32:55from his position.
00:32:57Security,
00:32:59escort him out immediately.
00:33:00I know my way.
00:33:01And all in favor of appointing
00:33:09Jessica Miller
00:33:10as the new CEO.
00:33:11I'm sorry,
00:33:29I had to make sure
00:33:30I had enough evidence
00:33:31to mail him.
00:33:32No,
00:33:32don't be sorry,
00:33:33Daniel.
00:33:33That was so worth the wait.
00:33:35Good.
00:33:35This is not over.
00:33:39You'll see.
00:33:40How's packing going,
00:33:41Lisa?
00:33:42You're about to be evicted, sir.
00:33:44Bye-bye.
00:33:50She won again,
00:33:51that bitch.
00:33:52I know,
00:33:52it's so unfair.
00:33:54Do we have a guest?
00:33:56Lisa,
00:33:56honey,
00:33:57I've been trying to reach you.
00:33:59Why didn't you return my calls?
00:34:01I've been busy.
00:34:03Busy.
00:34:04Dealing with Jessica.
00:34:06How did you know?
00:34:07Oh,
00:34:07I know.
00:34:08And I think I know
00:34:08how to help you take it down.
00:34:11Again.
00:34:11You're no use to me anymore,
00:34:13Adrian.
00:34:14I only needed you
00:34:15to help me get rid of Jessica.
00:34:19To the new CEO
00:34:20of the Miller Empire.
00:34:24Well,
00:34:24I couldn't have done it
00:34:25without you,
00:34:26Daniel.
00:34:26I also
00:34:27have another Christmas surprise
00:34:29for you.
00:34:31Who are you calling?
00:34:35Is it?
00:34:36Yes,

00:34:47Jess.
00:34:47I had no option
00:34:49but to vanish.
00:34:51Oh,
00:34:52Mom,
00:34:52it's okay.
00:34:53It's okay.

00:37:15Lisa and Kristen Miller.
00:37:16They want to protest the word.
00:37:18I should have known.
00:37:20What else?
00:37:21Adrian also used me,
00:37:22Jessica.
00:37:23Actually,
00:37:24he's the one who sabotaged Jessica
00:37:26our immigration paperwork.
00:37:28It caused all this trouble.
00:37:33That son of a bitch.
00:37:35We need to win this war.

00:38:10The restaurant.
00:38:14I got a bit carried away.
00:38:16Jess,
00:38:16you don't need to apologize.
00:38:19Adrian's an asshole.
00:38:20He's just trying to do it
00:38:21to get on your skin.
00:38:23I didn't care for Adrian
00:38:24once,
00:38:26but he just destroyed
00:38:27everything we had.
00:38:30I want you to know

00:40:36Oh,

00:40:37Jess.
00:40:38I've been looking for work
00:40:39for the past
00:40:40two months.
00:40:42Jess?
00:40:43Mm-hmm.
00:40:44Do you like

00:40:50Of course.

00:41:45The company's
00:41:46stock prices

00:41:48like crazy.
00:41:49What is happening?
00:41:51This isn't normal.
00:41:53The stocks
00:41:53are getting dumped.
00:41:54Well,
00:41:55well,
00:41:55well.
00:41:57Looks like
00:41:58things aren't
00:41:58going so well.
00:42:00What did you do,
00:42:00Lisa?
00:42:01I asked Richard

00:42:03the other
00:42:03investors
00:42:03to sell
00:42:05their stocks.
00:42:07The board
00:42:07members are not
00:42:07going to be
00:42:08happy about
00:42:08the stock
00:42:09prices,
00:42:09Jessica.
00:42:10What do
00:42:11you want?
00:42:12Resign
00:42:12as CEO
00:42:14or I will
00:42:15destroy this
00:42:16company.
00:42:17No way.
00:42:18Okay.
00:42:19Then I will
00:42:21destroy this
00:42:21company.
00:42:23Jessica,
00:42:23the board
00:42:23members are
00:42:24asking to
00:42:24meet with

00:42:45are you sure
00:42:46the stock
00:42:46prices are

00:42:49they seem
00:42:49to be

00:42:50and up.
00:42:52That's
00:42:52impossible.
00:42:53You would
00:42:53need at least
00:42:53a billion
00:42:54dollars.
00:42:56I guess
00:42:57anything's

00:57:21Mr. Thornton.
00:57:22Crown Prince
00:57:23said,

00:57:35to you all alone.
00:57:37Poor little girl's
00:57:38got no one to trust.
00:57:39Both of you,
00:57:40get out of here.
00:57:44Hey.
00:57:52Jess,
00:57:53I've been trying
00:57:53to tell you.
00:57:54Am I a joke
00:57:55to you?
00:57:55No.
00:57:56What do you mean?
00:57:57You
00:57:57and your father.
00:58:00You've been
00:58:01playing me
00:58:01this whole time.
00:58:03No.
00:58:03I've been standing
00:58:04by your side
00:58:05all the time, Jess.
00:58:06I can't trust you.
00:58:09You're lying to me.
00:58:11You're right.
00:58:12You're right.
00:58:16I have been hiding
00:58:17things from you.
00:58:20You know what
00:58:20I haven't told you yet?
00:58:23Another big secret.
00:58:26Are you sure
00:58:27you want to hear this?
00:58:34The other big secret is
00:58:35the first time we met
00:58:37isn't what you think it is.
00:58:40It was five years ago.
00:58:42Five years ago?
00:58:43Yes.
00:58:45At a party.
00:58:46I was drunk
00:58:48and I fell
00:58:48in a pool.
00:58:53Oh, thank God
00:58:59you're alive.
00:59:04I was drowning
00:59:05and you saved my life.
00:59:07But you won't remember that.
00:59:08But I will forever
00:59:11be grateful
00:59:12for what you did
00:59:13for me that day.
00:59:14But that
00:59:15that was you?
00:59:17Yes.
00:59:18My father
00:59:19forbid me
00:59:19from seeing you.
00:59:21But I didn't care.
00:59:23I confronted him.
00:59:25You can't tell me
00:59:26what to do, Dad.
00:59:27You can't stop me
00:59:28from seeing her.
00:59:28I'm doing what's best
00:59:29for you, Daniel.
00:59:30That girl
00:59:31and all her family
00:59:32are nothing but trouble.
00:59:34And then he decided
00:59:36to tell me
00:59:36about everything
00:59:37he did to you
00:59:37and your mom.
00:59:39And I felt so guilty.
00:59:40It's okay.
00:59:45I was ashamed
00:59:46to approach you.
00:59:47I just didn't know
00:59:48how to face you
00:59:48without making things worse.
00:59:50And I thought
00:59:50the best thing to do
00:59:51was just meet your mom.
00:59:54Now I know.
00:59:55And then I heard
00:59:56about you being deported
00:59:56and I just couldn't
00:59:57let that happen.
00:59:58Well.
00:59:59Okay.
01:00:01I saved you.
01:00:03Move.
01:00:04You saved me.
01:00:07I guess we
01:00:08just belong together.
01:00:13Ew.
01:00:14Corny.
01:00:17But just
01:00:18no more secrets.
01:00:23Okay?
01:00:24I promise.
01:00:26No more secrets.
01:00:28You're up early.
01:00:47Yeah.
01:00:48I'm gonna go pick
01:00:49your mom up
01:00:49from the airport.
01:00:50Better sooner
01:00:51than later.
01:00:51Janice just texted me.
01:00:57She said that I have
01:00:58my first weekly
01:00:59exec meeting
01:01:00this morning.
01:01:02I should postpone it.
01:01:03No.
01:01:04You should definitely
01:01:05go to that.
01:01:06You need to look good
01:01:07in front of your board.
01:01:08Really?
01:01:08Yeah.
01:01:09I'm gonna go pick
01:01:10your mom up
01:01:10from the airport
01:01:11and I'll bring you
01:01:11straight to the office.
01:01:12Thanks.
01:01:14You're the best.
01:01:19Well that was
01:01:20better than I thought.
01:01:21Don't underestimate
01:01:22yourself, Jess.
01:01:24You did great.
01:01:24Hey, Jess.
01:01:30What are you doing here?
01:01:36What are you doing here?
01:01:38I just want to share
01:01:39with you some interesting
01:01:39facts about your
01:01:40dear husband,
01:01:41Daniel Thornton.
01:01:44Joanna,
01:01:45can you wait
01:01:45outside a moment?
01:01:50Okay.
01:01:51I'm telling you now.
01:01:52Whatever a bad,
01:01:53made-up facts
01:01:55that you've come
01:01:55to tell me about
01:01:56Daniel
01:01:56is helping work
01:01:58because Daniel
01:01:59already told me
01:02:00everything.
01:02:01Everything?
01:02:02Are you so sure?
01:02:04Yeah.
01:02:05Him and his father
01:02:06came clean about
01:02:06everything.
01:02:07There's nothing more
01:02:08to hide.
01:02:09And did they also
01:02:09tell you Daniel's
01:02:10supposed to marry
01:02:11his childhood sweetheart?
01:02:12What?
01:02:13Ashley Wimbledon.
01:02:15Heiress to the
01:02:16famous Wimbledon family.
01:02:18Ring any bells?
01:02:19Ashley.
01:02:23Who is Ashley?
01:02:28I heard you guys
01:02:29talking about her
01:02:29earlier.
01:02:30Oh, she's just
01:02:31an old childhood friend.
01:02:34They grew up
01:02:35and went to law school
01:02:36together.
01:02:37Oh.
01:02:37And she had Daniel's
01:02:40first kiss.
01:02:44He did mention
01:02:45Ashley.
01:02:49He did?
01:02:50Yeah, but he's not
01:02:51going to marry her.
01:02:53I remember that
01:02:53conversation.
01:02:58Daniel's picking my
01:02:59mother up from the
01:02:59airport himself.
01:03:01I'll be seeing her soon.
01:03:02What are you laughing
01:03:05about?
01:03:10Daniel wants
01:03:11to bring her back,
01:03:12babe.
01:03:13You're not going
01:03:14to see her.
01:03:18After years of
01:03:20separation with your
01:03:21mother, Daniel didn't
01:03:22let you go along with
01:03:23him to meet with her?
01:03:25And what kind of a
01:03:26husband does that?
01:03:27I had an early meeting
01:03:28this morning and Daniel
01:03:29didn't want me to worry.
01:03:30So easily manipulated,
01:03:33Jess.
01:03:35Just like old times.
01:03:37Yeah, well, I don't
01:03:39believe a word you say.
01:03:42Daniel isn't going to
01:03:43bring her back.
01:03:45Care to find out
01:03:45together?
01:03:54Are you sure everything
01:03:55is taken care of?
01:03:56Yes.
01:03:57You're free to live
01:03:58in this country.
01:03:58Clara, I also want to
01:04:01apologize for everything
01:04:02you went through years
01:04:03ago.
01:04:04I'm deeply sorry.
01:04:05Well, you did bring me
01:04:06back here.
01:04:07Right now, I just want
01:04:08to see my daughter.
01:04:10We'll go, sir.
01:04:11Not so fast, Danny boy.
01:04:18You're too late, Lisa.
01:04:20Clara's here to claim
01:04:21Robert's inheritance back.
01:04:23Oh, I don't think so.
01:04:25Agents, do you think?
01:04:26Wait.
01:04:27What?
01:04:27This is a mistake.
01:04:28No.
01:04:29Clara's got past customs.
01:04:30She can stay.
01:04:31Sweetheart, you really
01:04:32think those little
01:04:33documents can stop this?
01:04:35I don't think so.
01:04:36Back off, Lisa.
01:04:38Watch it, pretty boy.
01:04:39Jess.
01:04:40Jess, Mom!
01:04:41Mom!
01:04:42What are you doing?
01:04:43Where are they taking
01:04:44my mother?
01:04:45Mom, I will bring you
01:04:46back, I promise.
01:04:47Just stay strong.
01:04:48Sis, it looks like you've
01:04:49been screwed by the
01:04:50Thorntons again.
01:04:51Adrian, you sabotage this.
01:04:54You'll pay for this.
01:04:55See, babe, I told you
01:04:57he's not bringing it back.
01:04:58You said everything
01:05:00was taken care of.
01:05:01Jess, it's not me.
01:05:02It's them.
01:05:03You're lying, Daniel.
01:05:04Why don't you ask him
01:05:05about that thing
01:05:05we talked about, Jess?
01:05:10Jess?
01:05:10He said that you were
01:05:11going to marry Ashley.
01:05:13Okay, so it's true.
01:05:14Jess, can we just
01:05:16talk about this?
01:05:18No.
01:05:18No, no, no, no, no.
01:05:19Thing is, Daniel,
01:05:20you promised me
01:05:21no more secrets.
01:05:22I can't trust you anymore.
01:05:24Jess, can you,
01:05:26it's just, uh,
01:05:27looks like you lost,
01:05:28Daniel.
01:05:28You never get in the back.
01:05:30Oh, thank God
01:05:53you're alive.
01:05:53Ted, what's the problem
01:06:21with Clara?
01:06:22Clara, her paperwork
01:06:23was flawless.
01:06:24You're my boss.
01:06:25I check with customs
01:06:26in the U.S.C.I.S.
01:06:28The label confirms
01:06:29that she legally
01:06:29entered the country.
01:06:30Good.
01:06:32What is it, man?
01:06:36Agents, do you think?
01:06:37Wait.
01:06:38What?
01:06:39This is a mistake.
01:06:40No.
01:06:41Jess.
01:06:42Jess, baby!
01:06:44Mom!
01:06:47The ICE agents
01:06:48weren't real.
01:06:49They were hired
01:06:50by Adrian and Lisa
01:06:50to kidnap Clara.
01:06:52Hold on a sec.
01:06:56You're right, boss.
01:06:57We found out
01:06:58those people want to.
01:06:59What should we do?
01:07:01I need to find out
01:07:01where they took them.
01:07:03Use all our contacts.
01:07:04I'm not gonna let them
01:07:05get away with this.
01:07:06On it, boss.
01:07:07Well, well, well, well, Clara.
01:07:18I bet you didn't expect
01:07:19to see me again,
01:07:20did you?
01:07:21We finally have
01:07:22what it takes
01:07:23to get it all back?
01:07:23Don't look at me like that.
01:07:26You disgust me.
01:07:33Jess, we need to talk.
01:07:35I don't want to talk to you.
01:07:36It's about your mom.
01:07:37I think she was kidnapped
01:07:38by Adrian and Lisa's people.
01:07:40The ICE agents weren't real.
01:07:41What are you talking about?
01:07:44I spoke to Ted.
01:07:46He told me that Clara
01:07:47legally came into the country.
01:07:49It was a setup.
01:07:51Do you actually
01:07:52expect me to believe that?
01:07:53After all the lies,
01:07:55you're so full of shit,
01:07:56Daniel!
01:07:56Hello, bastard child.
01:08:06Yes, we have your mother.
01:08:08And if you ever
01:08:08want to see her again,
01:08:10follow the directions
01:08:11to the address
01:08:12that we just sent you.
01:08:13And don't bring anyone.
01:08:14Especially Daniel.
01:08:19Let me come with you.
01:08:20No, they want me alone.
01:08:21I don't want to
01:08:22just...
01:08:22Jess?
01:08:22Don't follow me!
01:08:24I will not let you
01:08:24do this alone.
01:08:26Mom?
01:08:33Bastard child, over here.
01:08:35You let her go.
01:08:36This has gone on far enough.
01:08:39I'm not so fast, sis.
01:08:41This is only the beginning.
01:08:46You sign this,
01:08:48we let her go.
01:08:51And what is it?
01:08:52An agreement
01:08:53signing everything over to us.
01:08:55The house.
01:08:56Company.
01:08:58Company.
01:08:59Ever.
01:09:07Signed.
01:09:09Now let her go.
01:09:11God, you are so nice, sis!
01:09:14Now what more do you want?
01:09:18Get down on your knees
01:09:19and show that you know your place.
01:09:21Get down on your knees
01:09:26and show that you know your place.
01:09:29Wait.
01:09:34That's better.
01:09:42Now bark like a dog.
01:09:44come on.
01:09:45Come on.
01:09:53That's enough, Kristen.
01:09:58We're getting out of here, Monk.
01:10:06Let's get her out of here.
01:10:08Come on, let's go.
01:10:10Oh, my God.
01:10:11Daniel!
01:10:11Oh, my God.
01:10:13Come on.
01:10:14Oh, my God.
01:10:16Mom needs me to go there.
01:10:17Mom, we gotta go.
01:10:19Come on.
01:10:20Daniel!
01:10:21Daniel!
01:10:26Jess.
01:10:28No, don't.
01:10:30Don't try and talk.
01:10:30The police.
01:10:31They're on their way.
01:10:32Jess.
01:10:33I'm so sorry.
01:10:35Why are you apologizing?
01:10:37Just don't move.
01:10:48The doctor said it was nothing serious,
01:10:50so you'll be out of here soon.
01:10:53Jess, I just want to apologize.
01:10:56I am so sorry.
01:10:58Daniel, what are you apologizing for?
01:11:00You saved my mom.
01:11:02You saved us.
01:11:05Hello again, Mr. Thornton.
01:11:08Officer, you're here.
01:11:10Yes.
01:11:11You promised me last week we'd get that interview done.
01:11:15Officer, my husband is injured.
01:11:18He's literally lying in bed.
01:11:21Well, that doesn't change the requirements.
01:11:23Jess, it's okay.
01:11:26We can do the interview.
01:11:27We can do the interview.
01:11:35Are you insane?
01:11:36We haven't rehearsed this.
01:11:39Jess, when you see we've been rehearsing this whole Christmas,
01:11:44there's no better time to do this.
01:11:46You're right.
01:11:49We're ready, officer.
01:11:51Let's start with the question I asked you last week.
01:11:54When did you two first meet?
01:11:56Five years and four months ago.
01:11:58I don't understand.
01:12:00Last time you said it was six months ago,
01:12:03and the other one said it was eight months ago.
01:12:05We lied, officer.
01:12:08But it was five years ago.
01:12:10At a pool party.
01:12:12And we had our first kiss when we first met.
01:12:17It sounds pretty far-fetched.
01:12:19But for some reason,
01:12:20I want to give you two the benefit of the doubt.
01:12:26It sounds pretty far-fetched.
01:12:29But for some reason,
01:12:31I want to give you two the benefit of the doubt.
01:12:34Daniel risked his life to save me and my mother.
01:12:38There's nothing more that he needs to do to prove his love for me.
01:12:41One last question.
01:12:42How frequently have you two spent the night together in the past week?
01:12:53Relax.
01:12:55I can tell it's been at least three times.
01:12:58Right.
01:12:59Well, that's my interview done.
01:13:00You two are quite the couple.
01:13:03Thank you, officer.
01:13:04Daniel.
01:13:06Daniel.
01:13:07She's coming.
01:13:08Who's coming?
01:13:12Your fiancée.
01:13:17That's who.
01:13:22Your fiancée.
01:13:24That's who.
01:13:25Ashley.
01:13:27I guess I'm not done yet.
01:13:29You betrayed my family's trust, Daniel.
01:13:33Ashley.
01:13:34Please.
01:13:35Can't we talk about this?
01:13:37So you're Jessica Miller, huh?
01:13:40Adrian's told me all about you.
01:13:42I don't know what Adrian told you, but it's not what you think.
01:13:47Daniel was supposed to marry me, and then you just waltzed in and ruined everything.
01:13:54Ashley.
01:13:55Our engagement was long over before Jessica came to the picture.
01:13:58Oh, I see.
01:14:03You think this is over.
01:14:07I'm the heiress of the Wimbledon family.
01:14:11The Thornton name is as good as ruined.
01:14:15You can't do that, Ashley.
01:14:21Watch me.
01:14:22You're not the only heiress here.
01:14:32I own Miller Empire.
01:14:36And if you come for the Thorntons,
01:14:39the Miller Empire is going to come for you so hard.
01:14:44You've got guts, Jessica.
01:14:51I like you.
01:14:54I gotta tell you, I didn't expect that.
01:14:58This is so much better than watching TV.
01:15:00Glad to see you've replaced me with someone with a little fire, Daniel.
01:15:04I always knew Daniel didn't love me,
01:15:11but he was too afraid of his father to ever go after his true love.
01:15:17But I guess I'm happy that he's found someone who wants the same things as him.
01:15:26So, that's it?
01:15:30That's it.
01:15:31Enjoy your happy ending, darling.
01:15:41Andrea, bring the car around.
01:15:45Did that actually just happen?
01:15:48Yeah.
01:15:49Wow.
01:15:51You two really don't let anyone or anything get in the way of true love.
01:15:56You didn't see that coming.
01:15:57This is all your fault, Mom.
01:16:02If you wouldn't have been so reckless, then maybe you wouldn't be in this mess.
01:16:04Don't put all the blame on me.
01:16:06You're just as much a part of this as I am.
01:16:08Where is Aja?
01:16:09You should be here right now.
01:16:12Miss me?
01:16:13Where have you been?
01:16:14Just tying up a few loose ends.
01:16:16Don't worry about it.
01:16:18Everything's going according to plan.
01:16:20Plan?
01:16:21What plan?
01:16:22Everything's falling apart.
01:16:33What did you do, Adrian?
01:16:36Well, me, myself, I done nothing illegal.
01:16:39You two, on the other hand, that's a different story.
01:16:43You set us up!
01:16:45I'm just ensuring my own safety.
01:16:48After all, I kept my hands clean.
01:16:55Ow!
01:16:56You're not going to get away with this, asshole!
01:16:59I already have.
01:17:00I remember when this place was filled with warmth and laughter.
01:17:11Used to be a real family home back then.
01:17:14Then things just went south.
01:17:17Things will be fine again, Mom, I promise.
01:17:20We'll turn this into a good family house.
01:17:22No more hatred.
01:17:24No more backstabbing.
01:17:26I missed you every single day, Jess.
01:17:28I'm so sorry for everything both of us had to go through.
01:17:35Jessica?
01:17:37Clara?
01:17:39I am so sorry for everything I've done to you both.
01:17:43I was wrong.
01:17:45And I know I can never fully make up for it.
01:17:49But I want to try.
01:17:50James, you kept us apart for so many years.
01:17:53It's going to be hard to forgive and forget.
01:17:55I know, Clara.
01:17:58Jess, are you all right?
01:18:04Yeah, no, I'm...
01:18:05I'm fine.
01:18:07You know, I just feel...
01:18:10I just feel nauseous, that's all.
01:18:12Have you been getting any other symptoms, like...
01:18:15dizziness or fatigue?
01:18:18I don't think, yeah, but I just thought that was...
01:18:20from all the stress.
01:18:21Sweetheart, you're pregnant.
01:18:27Really?
01:18:28You're showing all the signs, Jess.
01:18:33We're going to have a baby!
01:18:35Wait.
01:18:37That means I'm going to be a grandpa!
01:18:39Yeah!
01:18:41Yeah!
01:18:41Oh, I...
01:18:44Oh, I...
01:18:45Oh, I...
01:18:46Daniel.
01:18:52There's something you need to do.
01:18:56What's this?
01:18:58This is a ring your grandma left.
01:19:00And I think this is the perfect time to use it.
01:19:05Go, Grant.
01:19:06We're going to do this.
01:19:07Yeah.
01:19:08Go.
01:19:10Oh.
01:19:11Oh.
01:19:18Jess.
01:19:20Jess!
01:19:20Jess, I know we've only ever spent time together a week during Christmas.
01:19:27And we've been through so much in that time.
01:19:30And over the past five years, all I've wanted to do is be with you.
01:19:35And I've had to endure the pain of that not being possible.
01:19:38I want to spend every waking moment in time with you.
01:19:41What I'm trying to say is, Jess...
01:19:45Will you marry me?
01:19:48For real this time?
01:19:53Yes, Daniel.
01:19:54Yes, I will marry you.
01:19:56Yes.
01:19:56Really?
01:19:57Yes.
01:19:58Yes.
01:19:59Oh.
01:20:05Oh.
01:20:18.
01:20:48.
01:21:18.
01:21:48.
01:21:50.
