00:00:00Ho, ho, ho! I have a gift for you. Jessica.
00:00:26Cheers. Maybe full surprises.
00:00:28Ho, ho, ho! I have a gift for you. Jessica, you have inherited this mansion, along with your father's business empire and assets worth over a billion dollars.
00:00:40I just need a signature from you. Oh, and a hundred and five million dollars in cash.
00:00:45We're rich!
00:00:51Let me hold on to you for your baby.
00:00:53Yeah. You know, my whole life, I grew up in foster care, moving from place to place, and now I finally have a place that I can call home.
00:01:05It was real great to win the jackpot.
00:01:07Now my only wish is to, is to reunite with my mother.
00:01:11You bastard child!
00:01:13You will never reunite with your mother. We made sure that that whore is gone forever.
00:01:19My mother is gone because of you?!
00:01:21Well, we had a little help from James Thornton, the most powerful man in the Thornton family.
00:01:28Time for you to go back to your poor little country, sis.
00:01:31Yes, ma'am?
00:01:32USCIS.
00:01:33Your visa were expired years ago.
00:01:35You're being deported.
00:01:36What? No, there must, must be some mistake.
00:01:38Adrienne, didn't you help me file my immigration paperwork?
00:01:42Whoops.
00:01:43Well, I guess I screwed up.
00:01:45What?
00:01:46Hey, baby.
00:01:48Hey.
00:01:49Adrienne, are you cheating on me? With her?
00:01:53Choose the right side, babe.
00:01:55You'll never win against them.
00:01:56That's true.
00:01:57Um, according to the terms of the will, non-citizens are not eligible to inherit the estate.
00:02:04Everything will pass to your next of kin, Lisa and Kristen Miller.
00:02:08You thought you could get rich overnight?
00:02:12Keep dreaming.
00:02:13Seriously?
00:02:14Bon voyage, half sis.
00:02:24The boss is urgent.
00:02:25They're about to deport a woman named Jessica Miller.
00:02:29Jessica Miller?
00:02:32It's her.
00:02:41Oh, thank God you're alive.
00:02:42She's so beautiful and kind.
00:02:44The girl I've always dreamed of.
00:02:47She saved my life once.
00:02:48I owe her.
00:02:53Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.
00:02:54Jessica?
00:02:55Do I know you?
00:02:57She doesn't remember me.
00:02:59I'm Daniel.
00:03:04I'm Daniel.
00:03:05You're a lawyer.
00:03:06Just pretend we know each other.
00:03:07If I can get you out of here.
00:03:09We've spoken to the judge.
00:03:10And Ms. Miller should be released immediately.
00:03:12And Ms. Miller should be released immediately.
00:03:14We can't report her.
00:03:16She is about to marry a U.S. citizen.
00:03:20Who's the lucky guy?
00:03:21I am.
00:03:23I marry her.
00:03:24Yeah.
00:03:29A fake marriage won't save her.
00:03:31Our marriage is real.
00:03:32Mm-hmm.
00:03:33Yeah.
00:03:33A hundred percent real.
00:03:35Prove it then.
00:03:36That's it?
00:03:44You call that a kiss?
00:03:57Need more proof, officer?
00:03:59Look, this guy is a lawyer to some of the most important families in town.
00:04:04And if you don't let her go,
00:04:06and he'll make sure you lose your damn job.
00:04:07Fine, you can have her.
00:04:09Thank you, officer.
00:04:15I think we're good.
00:04:18It's not over.
00:04:21We'll be checking your marital status and conducting interviews.
00:04:24And there are a few very specific requirements you should know.
00:04:28Make sure you two are staying in the same house and sleeping in the same bed.
00:04:32Or it's game over.
00:04:36Well...
00:04:39Thank you...
00:04:41For the rescue.
00:04:44Oh, it's no problem.
00:04:46But, um...
00:04:48Daniel...
00:04:49Would you...
00:04:51Would you marry me?
00:04:52Oh, Jessica.
00:04:54I've waited for this moment for five years.
00:04:56I mean, it would only be a contract marriage.
00:05:00But once I get my green card,
00:05:03I'll inherit my father's business empire and...
00:05:06I'll share half of it with you.
00:05:09Even your misunderstanding looks so cute.
00:05:11I only want you, Jessica.
00:05:13But before I get my green card...
00:05:16You're gonna have to help me deal with my stepsister and her mom.
00:05:20They're trying to get rid of me.
00:05:21And they've already stolen my fortune.
00:05:24And they made my mother disappear.
00:05:26Deal.
00:05:30What?
00:05:32That's it?
00:05:35This lily stands for loyalties and new beginnings.
00:05:39Something that I want with you.
00:05:41Now I know it's rushed.
00:05:43But I promise you...
00:05:46I will buy you a proper ring soon.
00:05:57From now on,
00:05:58let's make every Christmas our own.
00:06:00Fill it.
00:06:01Full of memories.
00:06:02You...
00:06:15You can't do this!
00:06:16Jess, it's okay.
00:06:17Just wait here.
00:06:18I'll handle it.
00:06:25What?
00:06:26Why are you helping that girl?
00:06:28Kristen Miller is our ally.
00:06:30And she wants her the hell out of this picture.
00:06:32It's too late, Dad.
00:06:33We already got married.
00:06:35Are you insane?
00:06:37Did you forget you're supposed to marry Ashley?
00:06:42Daniel Thornton.
00:06:44My mother is gone because of you?
00:06:47Well, we had a little help from James Thornton.
00:06:50The most powerful man in the Thornton family.
00:06:54Boy, I recognize that face from the newspaper.
00:06:57That was James Thornton.
00:06:59From the Thornton family.
00:07:01The family responsible for my mother's disappearance.
00:07:08Stop telling me what I can and cannot do.
00:07:10She saved my life.
00:07:11I owe it to her.
00:07:12Roll the hell up, Daniel.
00:07:14You need to remember your position as the heir to our family.
00:07:18And you need to divorce that girl.
00:07:20Now.
00:07:21I'm doing this to clean your mess up.
00:07:24Just leave us alone.
00:07:25Hello.
00:07:33Sorry about that.
00:07:34Is your name Daniel Thornton?
00:07:39Yeah.
00:07:41The Thornton family are responsible for the disappearance of my mother.
00:07:45I have been searching for her my entire life.
00:07:50Jess.
00:07:51No.
00:07:52I can explain.
00:07:53I'm not marrying Thornton.
00:07:54Wait, wait, wait.
00:07:55Jess, Jess.
00:07:56I'm not who you think I am.
00:07:57I have nothing to do with that family.
00:07:59Oh, really?
00:08:00Because your name is right here.
00:08:01On the marriage stack.
00:08:02I share the last name of Thornton.
00:08:05And I am not one of them.
00:08:07Thornton is a common man.
00:08:08Just an ordinary girl.
00:08:09Really?
00:08:10Well, I don't believe you.
00:08:11I saw you talking to James Thornton.
00:08:14Is he your father?
00:08:18Is he your father?
00:08:19No.
00:08:20He's not my father.
00:08:21He was threatening to drive you out of the country and I was not going to have anything to do with it.
00:08:24Jess.
00:08:25I'm on your side.
00:08:27You're not one of them.
00:08:29I'm sorry.
00:08:31It's okay.
00:08:34Don't worry about it.
00:08:40Well, you have a nice apartment.
00:08:42Welcome.
00:08:43Is that your Labrador?
00:08:46That looks exactly like mine.
00:08:48I got mine as a Christmas present when I was nine.
00:08:50No way.
00:08:51I got mine as a Christmas present when I was nine.
00:08:54It's crazy.
00:08:59Jess, we're going to have to sleep in the same room together.
00:09:01Just in case immigration ambush us.
00:09:02Yeah, but are you sure you're okay sleeping on the carpet?
00:09:06I mean, you've done so much for me already and I just-
00:09:09Jess, please.
00:09:10I insist.
00:09:11We made a deal, remember.
00:09:12I also want to thank you for giving me the chance to get rich.
00:09:17It's okay, Daniel.
00:09:20It's okay, Daniel.
00:09:50What are you spying on?
00:09:54No.
00:09:56No, no, no, no.
00:09:58I was just passing by.
00:10:00Do you need anything?
00:10:02I was joking.
00:10:04Yeah, could you pass me the towel?
00:10:08It's just hanging up next to the door.
00:10:10Yeah, sure, sure.
00:10:16Thanks.
00:10:20Oh my god.
00:10:26What? I just got fired.
00:10:28What?
00:10:30Wait, Jess, let me go with you.
00:10:36Yeah.
00:10:38Sam, please don't fire me.
00:10:50I'm sorry, Jess, but your immigration issue put us in a tough spot.
00:10:56I worked for this company for years.
00:11:00I'm sorry, Jess.
00:11:02There's nothing I can do.
00:11:04Sorry.
00:11:06Look who's here.
00:11:08Someone who just got fired.
00:11:12This suits you.
00:11:16It was you.
00:11:18I should have known you were behind this.
00:11:20I'm not going to let you stay here and ruin things.
00:11:22I'm going to take away everything you have, sister.
00:11:26You just made a big mistake, sir.
00:11:28Who are you?
00:11:30My name is Daniel Thornton, son of James Thornton, the chairman of Thornton Enterprise.
00:11:42Oh, Mr. Thornton, welcome.
00:11:46What brings you here?
00:11:50Well, I have some good news for you.
00:11:54Jessica Miller, she's just closed a billion dollar deal.
00:11:58Take a look.
00:12:00Oh, my God.
00:12:16It's real.
00:12:18Absolutely.
00:12:19With her hard work and dedication, she's made this possible.
00:12:22It's a real shame you're going to lose such a valuable employee.
00:12:26Oh, uh, Mr. Thornton, um, I have made a huge mistake.
00:12:32Uh, Jessica will stay.
00:12:36Good.
00:12:38And, uh, make sure nobody knows we have this conversation.
00:12:46Jessica!
00:12:48You should have told me!
00:12:52What are you talking about, Sam?
00:12:54Jessica!
00:12:56You secured a huge deal for the company!
00:12:58Thank you!
00:13:00Did you not just fire her?
00:13:02I changed my mind.
00:13:04Jessica's staying.
00:13:06Actually, she's being promoted to sales manager.
00:13:11Can't afford to lose someone as valuable as, like, her?
00:13:14Great.
00:13:16Thanks, Sam.
00:13:18This is not over.
00:13:20I can't believe it!
00:13:24Jessica kept her job, and she gets promoted!
00:13:26Don't worry, Lisa.
00:13:28I just spoke with James Thornton, and he had the lawyer change the will in our favor.
00:13:32Jessica will get nothing.
00:13:34Oh, my God.
00:13:36That's fantastic.
00:13:38That's fantastic.
00:13:51No way!
00:13:58Jessica?
00:13:59How's work?
00:14:00Did you get your job back?
00:14:02Daniel?
00:14:03Daniel?
00:14:04I need a lawyer.
00:14:11Wow!
00:14:12Look who decided to show up!
00:14:14Too bad for you, Jess.
00:14:16Turns out Daddy's will left you nothing.
00:14:18I knew all along Robert wouldn't leave anything for this little, pathetic, bastard child.
00:14:26You are out of luck.
00:14:28Well, that's a lie!
00:14:30You showed me the will.
00:14:32And I signed the documents.
00:14:34I'm sorry, Jessica.
00:14:36I've just discovered a revised will.
00:14:38It, um, supports Kristen and Lisa's claims.
00:14:44So...
00:14:45Who is this?
00:14:46He's my lawyer.
00:14:47And a damn good one.
00:14:49Oh!
00:14:50You know, Jess, I didn't realize you had enough money to pay for a fancy little lawyer.
00:14:54You sleep with them?
00:14:57Patrick?
00:14:58Can I have a word with you outside?
00:15:00Talk all you want.
00:15:02It won't change anything.
00:15:11All right, Patrick.
00:15:12I'm gonna keep this short and sweet.
00:15:14I know you changed the will to favor Kristen and Lisa.
00:15:17I know what you're talking about, Mr. Thornton.
00:15:20The revised will is solid.
00:15:21Ted found an email exchange with my father.
00:15:24Here.
00:15:25Take a look.
00:15:26You've been caught, Patrick.
00:15:28Honor of the will, I'll report you to the Bar Association.
00:15:31You'll lose your license and any chance of practicing law again.
00:15:34That goes against your father's wishes.
00:15:36You don't understand the position you put me in.
00:15:38I'll deal with my father.
00:15:40Don't you worry about that.
00:15:41You just worry about doing the right thing.
00:15:44Um, this revised will is a fake.
00:15:48The original will stand.
00:15:49What the hell are you doing?
00:15:50He's doing the right thing.
00:15:51Jessica, you've got your inheritance back.
00:15:53Congratulations.
00:15:54Oh my God.
00:16:06Patrick, do what you are supposed to do or James will make sure you face the consequences.
00:16:13Don't listen to it, Patrick.
00:16:14I'll deal with James Thornton.
00:16:15Who the hell do you think you are?
00:16:16James Thornton is one of the most powerful men in this town.
00:16:17I sure can.
00:16:18Isn't that right, Patrick?
00:16:19Yes.
00:16:20The original will stands.
00:16:21No, you are crazy.
00:16:22No, I'm not.
00:16:23According to the original will, Jessica stands to inherit this mansion.
00:16:26Kristen, you're out.
00:16:27I think you two should leave.
00:16:28You homewrecker, just like your mother.
00:16:35I will not allow violence.
00:16:45I didn't come here to argue over a house and assets.
00:16:49I came here to be recognized as an actual member of this family.
00:16:54I came here to be recognized as an actual member of this family it's easy for you to say you're getting everything
00:17:00You don't know how lucky you are Lisa. You grew up with a father who loved you
00:17:05I had none and you
00:17:07Took my mother away from me, and I still don't know where she is
00:17:12You two don't deserve this mention, and I would rather give it away to charity
00:17:18And to see the two of you living in
00:17:24You two should pack your things up you have one week to leave this house
00:17:38What the hell were you thinking sabotaging my plan I was just doing the right thing the right thing going against me
00:17:48Kristen Miller has got no power anymore her game is over
00:17:51I'm sure you didn't come all this way just to argue with me, so what do you want?
00:17:57Just want Jessica to get her mom back
00:18:02Interesting
00:18:05What's in it for me
00:18:07Once Jessica gets her mom back
00:18:10I'll do whatever you want whatever I want
00:18:13Like what exactly
00:18:15I'll marry Ashley
00:18:18You'll marry Ashley
00:18:21Yeah, you're willing to do that. Yeah, I am

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

01:02:32what are you laughing about?
01:02:34who?
01:02:38Daniel wants to bring her back babe
01:02:41I'm not gonna see her
01:02:42after years of separation with your mother
01:02:48Daniel didn't let you go along with him to meet with her?
01:02:51what kind of a husband does that?
01:02:53I had an early meeting this morning and Daniel didn't want me to worry

01:05:09Oh, thank God you're alive.
01:05:39Ted, what's the problem with Clara? Her paperwork was flawless.
01:05:47You're right, boss. I check with customers in the U.S.C.I.S.
01:05:51The label confirmed that she illegally entered the country.
01:05:54Thank you. That is enough.
01:05:59Agents, do you think?
01:06:00Wait!
01:06:01What?
01:06:02This is a mistake!
01:06:03No!
01:06:04Jess!
01:06:05Jess! Baby!
01:06:06Mom!
01:06:07Mom!
01:06:10The ICE agents weren't real.
01:06:12They were hired by Adrian and Lisa to kidnap Clara.
01:06:15Hold on a sec.
01:06:19You're right, boss.
01:06:20We found out those people want to.
01:06:22What should we do?
01:06:24I need to find out where they took them.
01:06:26Use all our contacts.
01:06:27I'm not gonna let them get away with this.
01:06:29On it, boss.
01:06:37Well, well, well, Clara.
01:06:40You bet you didn't expect to see me again, did you?
01:06:43We finally have what it takes to get it all back?
01:06:47Don't look at me like that. You disgust me.
01:06:55Jess, we need to talk.
01:06:57I don't want to talk to you.
01:06:58It's about your mom.
01:06:59I think she was kidnapped by Adrian and Lisa's people.
01:07:02The ICE agents weren't real.
01:07:05What are you talking about?
01:07:06I spoke to Ted.
01:07:08He told me that Clara legally came into the country.
01:07:11It was a setup.
01:07:13Do you actually expect me to believe that?
01:07:16After all the lies, you're so full of shit, Daniel!
01:07:19Hello, bastard child.
01:07:28Yes, we have your mother.
01:07:30And if you ever want to see her again,
01:07:32follow the directions to the address that we just sent you.
01:07:35And don't bring anyone.
01:07:36Especially Daniel.
01:07:41Let me come with you.
01:07:42No, they want me alone.
01:07:44Jess?
01:07:45Don't follow me!
01:07:46I will not let you do this alone.
01:07:48Mom?
01:07:55Bastard child, over here.
01:07:57You let her go.
01:07:58This has gone far enough.
01:08:00Not so fast, sis.
01:08:03This is only the beginning.
01:08:08You sign this, we let her go.
01:08:13And what is it?
01:08:14An agreement signing everything over to us.
01:08:17The house.
01:08:18The company.
01:08:19The house.
01:08:20The company.
01:08:21Everything.
01:08:30Signed.
01:08:31Now let her go.
01:08:32God, you are so nice!
01:08:34What more do you want?
01:08:36Get down on your knees and show that you know your place.
01:08:46Get down on your knees and show that you know your place.
01:08:49Wait.
01:08:50That's better.
01:08:51Now bark like a dog.
01:09:04Come on.
01:09:05That's enough Kristen.
01:09:06Help!
01:09:07Come on!
01:09:08We're getting out here, Monk.

01:09:21Let's get her out of here.

01:09:39Come on!
01:09:40We gotta go!
01:09:41Come on!
01:09:42Daniel!
01:09:47Jess...
01:09:49No, don't...
01:09:50Don't try and talk.
01:09:51The police...
01:09:52They're...
01:09:53They're on their way.
01:09:54Jess...
01:09:55I'm so sorry.
01:09:56Why are you apologizing?
01:09:58Just...
01:09:59Don't move.
01:10:09Well, the doctor said it was nothing serious, so...
01:10:12You'll be out of here soon.
01:10:14Jess, I just want to apologize.
01:10:16I am so sorry.
01:10:18Daniel, what are you apologizing for?
01:10:21You saved my mom.
01:10:23You saved us.
01:10:26Hello again, Mr. Thornton.
01:10:27Officer?
01:10:28You're here.
01:10:29Yes.
01:10:30You promised me last week we'd get that interview done.
01:10:33Officer, my husband is injured.
01:10:38He's literally lying in bed.
01:10:40Well, that doesn't change the requirements.
01:10:42Jess, it's okay.
01:10:44We can do the interview.
01:10:47We can do the interview.
01:10:52We can do the interview.
01:10:55Are you insane?
01:10:56We haven't rehearsed this.
01:10:59Jess...
01:11:00Hmm?
01:11:01When you see...
01:11:02We've been rehearsing this whole Christmas.
01:11:04There's no better time to do this.
01:11:06You're right.
01:11:09We're ready, Officer.
01:11:11Let's start with the question I asked you last week.
01:11:14When did you two first meet?
01:11:16Five years and four months ago.
01:11:18I don't understand.
01:11:20Last time you said it was six months ago,
01:11:23and the other one said it was eight months ago.
01:11:25We lied, Officer.
01:11:27But it was five years ago.
01:11:29At a pool party.
01:11:31And we had our first kiss when we first met.
01:11:36It sounds pretty far-fetched.
01:11:38But for some reason,
01:11:40I want to give you two the benefit of the doubt.
01:11:43Daniel risked his life to save me and my mother.
01:11:57There's nothing more that he needs to do to prove his love for me.
01:12:00One last question.
01:12:02How frequently have you two spent the night together in the past week?
01:12:06Last week?
01:12:13Relax.
01:12:14I can tell it's been at least three times.
01:12:17Right.
01:12:18Well, that's my interview done.
01:12:19You two are quite the couple.
01:12:21Thank you, Officer.
01:12:23Daniel?
01:12:24Daniel?
01:12:25Daniel!
01:12:26She's coming!
01:12:27Who's coming?
01:12:28Your fiancée.
01:12:36That's who?
01:12:41Your fiancée.
01:12:43That's who?
01:12:45Ashley.
01:12:46I guess I'm not done yet.
01:12:48You betrayed my family's trust, Daniel.
01:12:51Ashley.
01:12:53Please.
01:12:54Can't we talk about this?
01:12:56So you're Jessica Miller, hmm?
01:12:59Adrian's told me all about you.
01:13:01I don't know what Adrian told you, but it's not what you think.
01:13:06Daniel was supposed to marry me,
01:13:09and then you just waltzed in and ruined everything.
01:13:12Ashley.
01:13:13Our engagement was long over before Jessica came to the picture.
01:13:20Oh.
01:13:21I see.
01:13:22You think this is over.
01:13:24I'm the heiress of the Wimbledon family.
01:13:29The Thornton name is as good as ruined.
01:13:34You can't do that, Ashley.
01:13:40Watch me.
01:13:41You're not the only heiress here.
01:13:47I own Miller Empire.
01:13:53And if you come for the Thorntons,
01:13:56the Miller Empire is gonna come for you so hard.
01:14:02Hard.
01:14:06You've got guts, Jessica.
01:14:09I like you.
01:14:13I gotta tell ya, I didn't expect that.
01:14:15This is so much better than watching TV.
01:14:17Glad to see you've replaced me with someone with a little fire, Daniel.
01:14:21I always knew Daniel didn't love me, but he was too afraid of his father to ever go after his true love.
01:14:34But I guess I'm happy that he's found someone who wants the same things as him.
01:14:40So...
01:14:46That's it?
01:14:48That's it.
01:14:52Enjoy your happy ending, darling.
01:14:55Andrea?
01:14:59Bring the car around.
01:15:03Did that actually just happen?
01:15:05Yeah.
01:15:07Wow.
01:15:08You two?
01:15:09Really don't let anyone, or anything, get in the way of true love.
01:15:14I didn't see that coming.
01:15:18This is all your fault, Mom.
01:15:19If you wouldn't have been so reckless, then maybe you wouldn't be in this mess.
01:15:22Don't put all the blame on me. You're just as much a part of this as I am.
01:15:25Where is Adrian?
01:15:26She'll be here by now.
01:15:29Miss me?
01:15:30Where have you been?
01:15:31Just tying up a few loose ends.
01:15:34Don't worry about it.
01:15:35Everything's going according to plan.
01:15:37Plan?
01:15:38What plan?
01:15:39Everything's falling apart.
01:15:40What did you do, Adrian?
01:15:52Well, me, myself, I done nothing illegal.
01:15:56You two, on the other hand, that's a different story.
01:16:00You set us up!
01:16:01I'm just ensuring my own safety.
01:16:04After all, I kept my hands clean.
01:16:12Ow!
01:16:13You're not going to get away with this asshole.
01:16:16I already have.
01:16:17Fuck!
01:16:20What's up?
01:16:24I remember when this place was filled with warmth and laughter.
01:16:28Used to be a real family home back then.
01:16:31Then things just went south.
01:16:33Things will be fine again, Mom, I promise.
01:16:36We'll turn this into a good family house.
01:16:39No more hatred.
01:16:41No more backstabbing.
01:16:42I missed you every single day, Jess.
01:16:45I'm so sorry for everything both of us had to go through.
01:16:52Jessica?
01:16:53Wow.
01:16:55I am so sorry for everything that I've done to you both.
01:17:00I was wrong.
01:17:02And I know I can never fully make up for it.
01:17:05But I want to try.
01:17:06James, you kept us apart for so many years.
01:17:09It's going to be hard to forgive and forget.
01:17:11I know, Clara.
01:17:16Jess, are you alright?
01:17:20Yeah, I know, I'm...
01:17:22I'm fine.
01:17:23You know, I just feel...
01:17:25I just feel nauseous, that's all.
01:17:28Have you been getting any other symptoms, like...
01:17:31dizziness or fatigue?
01:17:33I don't care, but I just thought that was...
01:17:36from all the stress.
01:17:37Sweetheart, you're pregnant.
01:17:38Really?
01:17:39You're showing all the signs, Jess.
01:17:40We're going to have a baby?
01:17:41Wait.
01:17:42That means I'm going to be a grandpa!
01:17:43Yeah!
01:17:44Oh, baby.
01:17:46Oh, oh.
01:17:47Oh, oh, oh.
01:17:48Oh, oh, oh.
01:17:49Oh, oh, oh.
01:17:51Oh.
01:17:54Daniel...
01:17:55Oh, yeah!
01:17:57Oh, Kim.
01:18:05Daniel.
01:18:08There's something you need to do.
01:18:12What's this?
01:18:13This is a ring your grandma left.
01:18:16And I think this is the perfect time to use it.
01:18:20Okay?
01:18:22I'm gonna do this?
01:18:23Yeah.
01:18:25No.
01:18:34Jess.
01:18:35Jess!
01:18:38Jess, I know we've only ever spent time together a week during Christmas.
01:18:42And we've been through so much in that time.
01:18:45And over the past five years, all I've wanted to do is be with you.
01:18:50And I've had to endure the pain of that not being possible.
01:18:53I want to spend every waking moment in time with you.
01:18:56What I'm trying to say is, Jess...
01:19:02Will you marry me?
01:19:04For real this time?
01:19:08Okay.
01:19:09Yes, Daniel.
01:19:10Yes, I will marry you.
01:19:11Yes!
01:19:12Really?
01:19:13Yes!
01:19:14Daniel.
01:19:15What?
01:19:1718,000 yuan of dowries?
01:19:19Vonnie!
01:19:20You have a paralyzed mom and a lousy gambling dad to your family.
01:19:23I'm a good match way out of your league.
01:19:25You should send me a car as dowries instead of asking me for dowries.
01:19:28But I earn more than you.
01:19:29And I paid the down payment of the matrimonial house.
01:19:30Your parents' names are on the house property certificate.
01:19:31And now you ask me for a car?
01:19:32I have no money.
01:19:33Why don't you ask your family for the money?
01:19:34If they don't give, take it as a loan.
01:19:36We can pay them back after we get married.
01:19:37Vonnie!
01:19:38I'm a good match way out of your league.
01:19:39You should send me a car as dowries instead of asking me for dowries.
01:19:41But I earn more than you.
01:19:43And I paid the down payment of the matrimonial house.
01:19:46Your parents' names are on the house property certificate.
01:19:48And now you ask me for a car?
01:19:50I have no money.
01:19:56Why don't you ask your family for the money?
01:19:58If they don't give, take it as a loan.
01:20:01We can pay them back after we get married.
01:20:04Vonnie, I really want to marry you.
01:20:08Can't you just do more for our future life?
01:20:11Huh?
01:20:13Chad, don't get me wrong.
01:20:15I'm here to ask for dowries, not give out.
01:20:18Vonnie, you'd better take the offer.
01:20:20It is you eager to marry out, saying your mom is seriously ill.
01:20:23And you need a marriage to relieve her worries.
01:20:25Look at you, the least eligible woman.
01:20:27I pity you so that I offer to marry you.
01:20:29If you don't buy me a car, the marriage is off the table.
01:20:31Right, I'm desperate to get married.
01:20:33But not desperate enough to marry you.
01:20:35You!
01:20:38If I won't marry you, who would like to be with you?
01:20:47Hey dude, are you single?
01:20:49Do you mind having a wife?
01:20:50Get on board and go register now.
01:20:52I'd like to give it a shot.
01:20:53Anyhow, I don't have a wife.
01:20:55Do you see that?
01:20:57He wanna marry me.
01:20:59Come back.
01:21:09I'm married?
01:21:11Pack your things tonight, and move to my... our home.
01:21:16Where?
01:21:17So, we are living together?
01:21:20What are you thinking about?
01:21:22We're married.
01:21:23It's natural for us to live together.
01:21:26Well...
01:21:28I'm John, an office worker.
01:21:30I'm usually busy at work.
01:21:31When you move in, you don't need to take care of me.
01:21:34I can't support you with my salary.
01:21:36I have to work now.
01:21:37See you then.
01:21:38I'll pick you up after work.
01:21:39I see.
01:21:40We are working slaves.
01:21:41It's not easy to make a living.
01:21:42Just go back to work.
01:21:43How do you go home?
01:21:44Why not take a taxi?
01:21:45I'll pay for it.
01:21:46There are short bikes at the gate.
01:21:47I can ride on.
01:21:48Working slave?
01:21:49Hm.
01:21:50My grandma chose her to be my wife.
01:21:51She seems to be interesting for now.
01:21:54I fainted last time.
01:21:55It's her saved me.
01:21:57After I left the hospital, she knew I lived alone, and made many calls to cheer me up.
01:22:02John, she's the kindest girl I've ever met.
01:22:05You love her when you see her.
01:22:07Grandma, we are in a new era.
01:22:09Why do you want to arrange marriage for me?
01:22:10What?
01:22:11I got her schedule yesterday.
01:22:13I want you to meet her.
01:22:14If you think she's a good girl, you can develop your relationship after marriage.
01:22:19Hear me out.
01:22:20If you don't give it a shot, you'll see my scenery casket when you get back.
01:22:25Boss, we've got 1,000 acre land of suburb of Eastern China.
01:22:29Construction will be started in the middle of this month.
01:22:32Central Bank is asking us for the loan.
01:22:35Yes.
01:22:36Well.
01:22:43That's all for today.
01:22:44I'm going to pick up my wife home.
01:22:46Pick up your wife?
01:22:47What?
01:22:48Our boss is married?
01:22:52What gift should I give to a girl on our first date?
01:22:55Your first date?
01:22:56A lightning marriage?
01:22:57I think you are suitable for our project in Africa.
01:23:03Do you think so?
01:23:04Sorry, boss.
01:23:05I won't do it again.
01:23:06Just answer my question.
01:23:07No more bullshit.
01:23:08I think if you're not familiar with each other, it's better to send flowers.
01:23:14Half an hour.
01:23:15In just half an hour, I'll put the imported roses to the given location.
01:23:18Good.
01:23:19From now on, you drive my car and I'll drive yours.
01:23:28What?
01:23:29What's wrong with Mr. Lou?
01:23:33Do you want to drive my old Mercedes instead of his fancy phantom?
01:23:43Hey!
01:23:44Hey, what are you doing?
01:23:47Good dogs don't get underfoot.
01:23:50Hey, you!
01:23:51Get out of my way!
01:23:52Oops.
01:23:53Oops.
01:23:54Oops.
