00:00August, you've been in here for hours, maybe it's time for a little break.
00:20Charlotte, stop.
00:23Just once, let's try it.
00:25Please, August, I won't let you down.
00:27I promise.
00:28I said stop!
00:30Oh, God.
00:34It's been two years, August, and you haven't even touched me.
00:38Not once.
00:39What do I have to do?
00:41Beg?
00:41Bleed?
00:44God.
00:47Blake, I'm done.
00:49Okay, I want to divorce him.
00:51Finally, you get it, baby sis.
00:53Come to Paris, I have ten hot guys lined up for you.
00:56Let your husband rot alone with his work.
00:59Tessa.
01:23Tessa Whitmore?
01:29His own stepsister?
01:30Tessa, I love you.
01:32Six years.
01:34I kept telling myself maybe he just wasn't into sex, but the truth?
01:38He just wasn't into me.
01:40Went into his stepsister, Tessa.
01:42She tried again, didn't she?
01:48Of course.
01:49Mr. Whitmore doesn't need women.
01:51There's no way she can seduce him.
01:54It's embarrassing.
01:55They're not wrong.
02:08I've humiliated myself.
02:10Oh my God.
02:13Is that August Whitmore?
02:15I have to meet him.
02:17Charlie, you can flirt with anyone in this room, just not him.
02:20Why not?
02:21Well, wealthy heirs like us love fancy lives, but this guy, he's allergic to women.
02:28He doesn't date, he doesn't flirt.
02:30He's like a monk in the Tom Ford suit.
02:32Well, maybe I can be the one to break the spell.
02:39I thought that night I'd finally broken through.
02:46The woman he's always loved is his stepsister.
02:59August, do you like what you see?
03:03Can you stop wearing my shirts without asking?
03:06I'll buy you your own, okay?
03:09What?
03:12August, we've been together for four years.
03:14Four years of waiting and trying.
03:18What do I have to do to make you touch me?
03:21Marry me.
03:24What?
03:25Let's get married.
03:27Yes.
03:30Yes.
03:34I was a distraction.
03:36He married me to cage his own desire.
03:39To hide from the woman he truly wanted.
03:44Seven more days and I'll be gone.
03:50Off to Paris, far from him.
03:52And all of this chaos.
03:54Who are you right now?
04:07You haven't stepped foot in here since marrying August.
04:09I know.
04:10But tonight, okay, who cares?
04:12We're partying!
04:14Shots?
04:15Um, yes.
04:16Yes!
04:16Okay.
04:18Let's go!
04:20Cheers.
04:20Cheers.
04:21Cheers.
04:21Cheers.
04:21Cheers.
04:22Cheers.
04:23Oh my god.
04:26Hi, excuse me.
04:28Can you send the hottest guy that you have over here, please?
04:35Hi.
04:38Not bad.
04:40Charlotte, what are you doing?
04:42What if August sees you?
04:43He never comes here.
04:44It doesn't matter.
04:45He's here tonight.
04:50Back booth.
04:52He's been watching you the whole time and he looks angry.
04:55Is he jealous?
04:56For me?
04:57Dude, your wife is out there dry humping the male model.
05:01If that was me, I'd be flipping tables.
05:03Charlotte knows what to try to line.
05:04She won't cross it.
05:06She's crossing his abs right now.
05:08You really don't give a damn, do you?
05:09Is there any woman on the planet who could get under your skin?
05:13Excuse me.
05:16Hey.
05:18Calm down.
05:19Wait.
05:20He's coming.
05:21I've never seen him look like that before.
05:23You made him jealous, Charlotte.
05:25I can't believe he's actually coming over here.
05:27August.
05:28I can't believe he didn't even look at me.
05:46August, what are you doing?
05:48He was jealous.
05:50But not for me.
05:53August, what are you doing here?
05:55Who said he didn't come here?
05:56And why are you giving your number out to random guys?
05:58Haven't you said you're done with me?
06:00Don't act like you still care.
06:04Who said I don't?
06:07You did.
06:08You barely talked to me for a week.
06:10You used to treat me like I mattered and now it's like, like, like you're avoiding me.
06:15What happened?
06:19Because.
06:21Say it.
06:22Say it's because you want her.
06:24I'm married now.
06:26Things can't be the way they were.
06:28I can't chase you around all day.

12:03If he wants to love his sister, you let him.
12:07I'm done playing the loyal wife.

12:14August, I think a mosquito bit my lip last night. Look, it's all swollen.
12:21I'll have the maid get you some lintment.
12:24I promised I'd get you something after the hospital.
12:28This hair clip, it matches your hair.
12:31Wow, I never knew you could be so sweet to your wife.

12:47Thanks, baby.
12:48Thanks, Amy.
12:49Thanks.
12:51That's what we've been helping him.
12:53I'm just looking for this coffee.
12:54Thanks, we're...
12:55Turn a little more time to bring me a home here.
12:58No, no, no, no, no, no.
13:17No.
13:20My hair.
13:28You cut my hair?
13:30Yep.
13:31I need material for an art project, so I thought I'd make a wig.
13:35And yours is the best.
13:37So shiny.
13:44You hit me?
13:45My own brother wouldn't even lay a hand on me, and you think you can?
13:49Hold her down.
13:51I am August's wife.
13:53If you touch me, you will regret it.
13:56Ah, you're August's maid, so tell me, who does even love me?
14:00Or her?
14:03Hey.
14:07So that's it?
14:08You already know who runs this house.
14:10I'm glad you're finally catching up.
14:17What the hell are you looking at?
14:19Do you really think August is going to let you get away with this?
14:29Oh, please.
14:30August has let me get away with everything my entire life.
14:33Even if I were to beat his wife dead today.
14:37And just remember, I'm the one he cares about, not you.
14:41So now, I'll make sure you never forget that.
14:45How many was that?
15:0599.
15:0799?
15:07Oh, no.
15:09Let's make it a clean 100.
15:11You look so much better like that.
15:36What the hell's going on here?
15:38I heard about what happened today.
15:47And?
15:48Tessa can be a little impulsive.
15:50And what she did today was wrong.
15:52I already punished her.
15:54I wonder what that punishment looks like.
15:56She cut your hair, so she cut a lock of her own, too.
16:00To say she's sorry.
16:02She slapped me a hundred times.
16:04I was unconscious.
16:09You don't actually think that that makes us even, do you?
16:11Her hand is swollen from hitting you.
16:13She suffered, too.
16:14Oh, my God.
16:15I was an idiot.
16:17Forever falling in love with you.
16:24Get out!
16:25Can you calm down?
16:27I brought her here to apologize.
16:28Guys, come in.
16:34Sorry, Charlotte.
16:36I was a little out of line.
16:40August, she's scaring me.
16:41Please don't let her hurt me.
16:43Don't worry.
16:44No one's going to hurt you.
16:46Not while I'm here.
16:47Both of you, just get out now.
16:50Look, I know you're angry, but the doctor said you need to rest.
16:54And just take some time to relax.
16:55I said, get out!
16:59Jesus.
17:06Sweetheart, your visa's approved.
17:08Someone offered to pick you up in Paris anytime.
17:16Who?
17:17Let's just say, a much better person than that heartless husband of yours.
17:22We'll see you in Paris, sweetheart.
17:23Once I get that visa, I am never setting foot in this place again.
17:42Let's go of me!
17:43Help!
17:44Help!
17:45Help!
17:46Well, look who's awake.
18:02Who the hell are you?
18:06Let me go.
18:07My brother will kill you for this.
18:12You know what that is strapped to you, princess?
18:15That's a bomb.
18:17The Whitmores ruined my life.
18:19And now August is going to watch the two women he loves get blown to bits.
18:28No, please.
18:29Somebody help us.
18:30Please.
18:31Tessa, just stop crying, okay?
18:33If we want to get out of here, we have to figure this out.
18:35Don't yell at me, okay?
18:36I'm scared.
18:38August.
18:40August, please.
18:43August.
18:44August.
18:44August, help me.
18:45Please.
18:46I know how to disassemble this.
18:48Free me first and we can save Tessa together.
18:51There is still time.
18:52August, please save me.
18:54Please.
18:54I'm going to get hers first and then I'll come back for you.
19:00He chose her again.
19:01And what's worse, it doesn't even hurt anymore.
19:12August, no.
19:13Please, please.
19:13Please, please.
19:14I'm scared.
19:15Please.
19:16Please.
19:17Please.
19:19Please.
19:20I'm scared.
19:24Please.
19:25Please.
19:26Just take her and go.
19:28From now on, my life has nothing to do with you anymore.
19:30If you don't love me, someone else will.
19:33August, no.
19:34No, please.
19:35Please, it's going to blow.
19:36You need to help me.
19:46Oh, you need to help me.
19:59That was close, but luckily she managed to throw the bomb away in the last few seconds.
20:08Thank you, Doctor.
20:20Don't move. Don't move.
20:22Save. Fake concern. No matter what you do, I will never forgive you.
20:26You just had a skin graft done for Tessa. You need to rest.
20:31What did you just say?
20:37I gave Tessa a skin graft?
20:40Tessa's arm was burnt, and she didn't want a scar.
20:42And your skin matched her the best, so they used it for the transplant.
20:46You didn't even ask me? You just took it?
20:49She's your princess, and what am I? Just trash on your shoes?
20:53I'll make it up to you. You've always wanted to sleep me, haven't you?
20:56When you're discharged, I'll give you that.
21:02Save it. You're disgusting.
21:04Blame me all you want. I'll leave on a business trip tomorrow, but I keep my promises.
21:08When I get back, I'll follow through.
21:10I was such an idiot.
21:27I knew this ring never fit, but I wore it anyway.
21:30Tessa, meet me in August to study. There's something you'll want to see.
21:41What?
21:43You better not try anything.
21:46Try it.
21:46What's your point?
21:55You always wondered why August kept his distance from you?
21:57It wasn't me.
21:59It's because he wanted you.
22:01That...
22:02That's insane.
22:04I have proof.
22:05Everyone always thought that August Whitmore, the stoic celibate, the obsessed businessman,
22:12had no time for women.
22:14But the truth is, he has been locking himself in here for years,
22:18jacking off to your photos.
22:20The woman that he loved most is the one that he never dared to touch.
22:31His stepsister.
22:34What a fucking joke.
22:36So he really wants me.
22:38You remember that night that you fell asleep on the couch?
22:41He kissed you for three minutes.
22:44And that ring?
22:46That was never meant for me.
22:47He got that for you.
22:48He always wanted to marry you.
22:50Tessa.
22:55I want you to give this to your brother.
22:56It's a divorce agreement.
22:57I have already signed it.
23:01Where are you going?
23:04Start my new life without him.
23:07And Tessa, if you ever lay a finger on me again,
23:10I will return it to you a thousand times over.
23:18Just landed.
23:33Got you something.
23:34Of course, Tessa gets the jewelry.
23:39I get the freebies.
23:44But not anymore.
23:46From now on, August.
23:48You will never hurt me again.
23:49Happy 4th, August.
23:55Enjoy your freedom.
23:56And I'll enjoy my life.
23:58I'm going far, far away.
24:01To a place you'll never find me.
24:03And I'll find someone who'll love me for who I am.
24:06Wait.
24:16Wait.
24:17Wait.
24:18She usually replies within seconds, no matter what I send.
24:34Morning.
24:36Did you eat?
24:37It's raining.
24:37Don't forget an umbrella.
24:40Good night.
24:41Sweet dreams.
24:55Is she still mad at me?
24:57Sir, should we go to Miss Tessa's first or head home?
24:59Charlotte.
25:01Is she out of the hospital?
25:02Yesterday.
25:03The doctor says she's recovering well.
25:08The number you have dialed is not in service.
25:11What kind of game is she playing now?
25:16What?
25:16She blocked me?
25:17Drive home.
25:19Now.
25:23Why do I feel unsettled?
25:25She's never done this before.
25:26What the hell is going on?
25:27She used to cuddle up with that blanket every night.
25:53Sir, Charlotte's not home.
26:07So she ran.
26:09Is this another one of her stunts waiting for me to chase her?
26:11She's probably hiding out at Lindsay's again.
26:14Call her.
26:14Tell Charlotte stop being dramatic and come home.
26:16Yes, sir.
26:17But I think she's really mad this time.
26:19What if she doesn't come back?
26:20That's impossible.
26:20No matter how bad the fight, it's always the same.
26:22Three days max.
26:23Unless she comes back.
26:25Honey.
26:26Hey.
26:29What the hell is wrong with you, August?
26:31Don't expect me to forgive you for this.
26:33Can't you just say sorry and we can get over this?
26:44Sorry.
26:45Don't be mad at me anymore.
26:50Okay.
26:51Since you're really sorry, then I forgive you.
26:54No.
26:54No.
26:55What are you waiting for?
27:06Make the damn call.
27:07Yes, sir.
27:11Don't bother.
27:13She's not coming back.
27:15She's not coming back.
27:22Charlotte's already divorced you.
27:23What do you mean?
27:29She left me her wedding ring.
27:32Said she's never coming back.
27:35Say that again?
27:37You're hurting me, August.
27:39Tell me exactly what she said.
27:41She said you were never in love with her.
27:44The only reason you were with her was to bury your feelings for me.
27:48What else did she say?
27:51You're done here, right?
27:52I'll be outside, sir.
27:59She said you kissed me while I was asleep.
28:03She showed me your study room.
28:05All the photos of me behind your medals.
28:09She said you jerk off to them every night.
28:12And she signed this.
28:16She said she hopes we have a happy life together.
28:21You could have just told me you wanted me, Augie.
28:24I've always wanted you, too.
28:28We're not really siblings, so...
28:32You can have me now.
28:36You can have me now.
28:37She knows everything?
28:39Yes.
28:40She said you only married her so you could forget about your feelings for me.
28:45There's no need to pretend now, August.
28:47You can do whatever you want with my body now.
28:50I'm not gonna stop you.
28:52I brought you some tea.
29:07Tessa's due back from her trip soon, isn't she?
29:09How would I know?
29:11I've been too busy working.
29:12I've had time to think of her.
29:13This photo frame is dusty.
29:28Where did she go?
29:30What are you saying?
29:31You were married to her, but you never stopped wanting me.
29:34And now that she's gone, all you care about is her?
29:38Don't tell me you're actually falling for her.
29:43Say it!
29:45Do you love her?
29:48Tessa, what are you doing?
29:50Give that to me.
29:51If you really love Charlotte, I'll kill myself.
29:53I'd rather die than see you fall for another girl.
29:55Tessa, don't do it.
29:56Then say it.
29:57Say you're mine, or I'll cut myself.
30:02Fine.
30:03I'll be with you.
30:08You're mine now, August.
30:10Finally, you're really mine.
30:13Parker, take this away.
30:19Sir, should I still keep trying to contact Charlotte?
30:23Are you deaf?
30:24He just said he's done with her.
30:25If you dare try calling her, I'll make sure my brother fires you first.
30:28This isn't something that you would regret, sir.
30:32What did you say?
30:34Regret?
30:36Stop!
30:37Why are you saying that?
30:39I should be happy.
30:40Tessa's finally mine.
30:42But why does it feel like something's missing?
30:44This is a rare purse.
30:53There's only five of these in the world.
30:54Oh my God.
30:55Can you please buy it for me?
30:56Of course.
30:56Whatever you want.
30:57Yay!
30:58You're the best.
30:59Hi.
31:00How can I assist?
31:01Not that one, and definitely not that one.
31:03But all the others?
31:05Wrap them up.
31:05Right away.
31:06Would you like to see our newest collection?
31:08Yes.
31:09Awesome.
31:10Right this way.
31:10Oh!
31:11Which one looks better on me?
31:19You look stunning in anything.
31:21So buy them all if you can't decide.
31:23Aki.
31:24I love you so much.
31:27What about this one?
31:38I don't know.
31:39What do you think?
31:40Is it...
31:41Is it too plain?
31:42Does it make me look old?
31:44It's fine.
31:45You look the same in anything.
31:47Look, I have work to get done, so...
31:49I'm leaving.
31:53Why is she in my head?
31:55I should be happy with Tessa, shouldn't I?
31:57I should be happy with Tessa, shouldn't I?
31:57I should be happy with Tessa.
32:01I should be happy with Tessa, shouldn't I?
32:02I should be happy with Tessa?
32:02I should be happy with Tessa.
32:02You're in a good mood today, sir.
32:03I should be happy with Tessa.
32:04You're in a good mood today, sir.
32:08She's lively.
32:09Being around her, it's easier to breathe.
32:11Not like Charlotte.
32:12Always so dull.
32:13She wasn't always like that.
32:15She used to be vibrant.
32:17The only reason Charlotte dulled herself down was to fend to your world.
32:21First time I saw Charlotte, she was 20.
32:24She was fire, bright, alive.
32:26Too bright for me, maybe.
32:27So, you're August Whitmore.
32:31They say you're allergic to women.
32:33Is that true?
32:36But after we got married, she changed.
32:43Honey, what do you think?
32:46Red is gaudy.
32:48And can you stop talking so loud?
32:50After that, she stopped wearing colors, stopped laughing out loud.
32:53She was just dull.
32:57Charlotte changed for you because she loved you.
33:02What if she gets tired, walks away?
33:04Could you live with that?
33:07What are you guys talking about?
33:12Nothing, just work stuff.
33:13You're thinking about work while you're on a date with me?
33:16You better make it up to me, okay?
33:18That new bistro?
33:19I want to eat there.
33:20Now!
33:27Yeah, I understand.
33:28Sir, it's a four-hour wait.
33:32Tessa, I have an important meeting this afternoon.
33:35Can we do this somewhere else?
33:37No, it's just four hours.
33:39If you're really my boyfriend, you better spoil me like a man madly in love would.
33:43All right, we'll wait.
33:46You're the best.
33:48So this is what love feels like, just tired.
33:51What?
33:51Nothing.
33:53Let's go.
34:03Mmm.
34:06Oh my god, thanks, Aki.
34:07You're the sweetest.
34:09I have to take this.
34:10Tessa, what a coincidence.
34:18Is that your boyfriend?
34:19He's insanely hot.
34:21That's my stepbrother.
34:22Your stepbrother?
34:23You've never mentioned him.
34:25He seems so attentive-kept, fussing over you.
34:28And the way he was looking at you?
34:30Definitely boyfriend vibes.
34:32Oh.
34:33You two never.
34:36What?
34:37No, no, no, no.
34:38My mom married his dad.
34:40That's literally it.
34:41Oh, sorry.
34:43Totally misread.
34:44Catch you around?
34:51Aki, you're back.
34:54Aki, are you done with your phone call?
34:57Yeah.
34:58You didn't happen to hear any of that, did you?
35:00Should I have?
35:00No, no, no.
35:01No, there was nothing at all.
35:03I'm done with my food now, so let's go.
35:09Let's wait till we're in the car.
35:12There's too many people in here.
35:14When this place opened, the wait list was insane.
35:17Charlotte waited eight hours just to get us a table.
35:20But I showed up late.
35:22You're here.
35:23Hey, testinated something last minute.
35:25Sorry I'm late.
35:26Why do you order so much food?
35:28I, um, I actually invited some friends.
35:30I, I really wanted them to meet you, but they couldn't be any longer, so they had to go.
35:35But hey, I mean, it's just you and me.
35:37Date night, right?
35:39Charlotte couldn't wait to introduce me to her friends.
35:41But Tessa?
35:42Tessa?
35:45Augie, what are you looking at?
35:47Nothing.
35:48Let's go.
35:51Where's Charlotte?
35:52Didn't she come back with you?
35:54Uh, she, she had something come up.
35:56Said she couldn't make it.
35:57You two have been married a while now.
35:59Don't you think it's about time you had a child?
36:01Actually, yeah.
36:02Dad, August has his own plans for that.
36:04Let's, let's not rush him.
36:06All right, Tessa.
36:08But you're now of age two.
36:10I've lined up some potential matches for you.
36:13Family alliances.
36:14You should meet with them when you have a moment.
36:17Yes, daddy, of course.
36:21Talk later, okay?
36:23Augie!
36:34Why didn't you tell mom and dad about the divorce?
36:38Because they love Charlotte.
36:40And if they found out you two split, they'd go mad.
36:43Plus, it's our first night.
36:44I didn't want to ruin it.
36:46Then why didn't you refuse dad when he arranged your marriage?
36:48I was just humoring him, Augie.
36:51Don't overthink it.
36:53I'm tired.
36:56I'm going to bed.
36:58You can take the guest room.
37:11Surprise.
37:13Surprise.
37:14Get out.
37:15What?
37:16Why?
37:16We're together now.
37:17What's wrong with sharing a bed?
37:20If you kick me out, I'm seriously going to cry.
37:23Fine.
37:24Stay.
37:26I can't believe this is real, Augie.
37:31I've loved you since we were kids.
37:33And now that you love me, it feels like a dream.
37:36You really love me that much?
37:37Of course I do.
37:38I want us to stay like this forever.
37:44Then let's get married.
37:47What?
37:48Let's get married, Tessa.
37:50Isn't it a little fast?
37:51I mean, we're perfect the way we are, right?
37:54I don't do secrets.
37:56If we're going to be together, it's all in.
37:58I'll make it public that we're not biologically related.
38:00Then we marry.
38:03And build our life with everyone's blessings.
38:05Look, if you want me, Tessa, if you really want me, this is what it takes.
38:09No.
38:12No, no, no, no, no.
38:13I can't.
38:14I won't.
38:15If we go public, I won't be the admired heiress anymore.
38:21And people will say I seduced my own brother.
38:22That's disgusting.
38:25Mom and dad would never forgive us.
38:27I see what you really want.
38:28You want me to be your secret lover?
38:29No, I don't.
38:30That's not it.
38:31I just want us to stay the way we are.
38:35Right.
38:35Nothing has to change.
38:37Is that why you denied our relationship to your classmate?
38:40That's my stepbrother.
38:42You heard that?
38:43I was just scared that they'd gossip.
38:47Okay, please.
38:48Please don't be mad at me.
38:49I was just scared.
38:50Right.
38:51And when dad brought up a marriage alliance, you said yes?
38:55Was that also fair too?
38:56Yes, daddy, of course.
38:58Yes!
38:59Okay, I was just trying to buy time, okay?
39:02I would have come up with something.
39:04Eventually.
39:07Tessa, I've always loved you.
39:10But I didn't hold back because I was afraid you would reject me.
39:13I held back because deep down I know how selfish you can be.
39:16What?
39:18You said yes to me, but not to any of the costs.
39:21You wouldn't give your image up.
39:23Your title.
39:25You only want me if it's easy.
39:30Then why be with me at all?
39:33Because I had hope.
39:34If you would have really chosen me, I would have given you everything.
39:36But I see now you would risk nothing for me.
39:43Let's end this, Tessa.
39:47Let's end this, Tessa.
39:49No, no, no, no.
39:50Please, please don't have this, okay?
39:52I know I'm selfish and I'm scared, but that's the girl you fell for, isn't it?
39:57Just give me more time, please.
40:00I've compromised everything for you, but not this.
40:03If you're not willing to stand beside me in the light, then we're going to go back to just being siblings.
40:06This was your plan all along, wasn't it?
40:13You've always wanted to own me, and now that you do, you're going back to her.
40:17To Charlotte.
40:19You love her, don't you?
40:21I am going back to her.
40:23And we never divorced.
40:25And I don't know whether I love her.
40:26I just know that this house doesn't feel like home without her.
40:32She's not coming back.
40:35She will.
40:36Charlotte loves me.
40:38If I find her, she'll come back.
40:41And what makes you so sure?
40:43Have you forgotten all the terrible things you did to her all because of me?
40:48Have you forgotten all the terrible things you did to her all because of me?
40:55Tessa wants to go shopping.
40:57I'll make it up to you later.
40:58Promise.
41:06I'll give you...
41:07I'll give you...
41:11I don't like her.
41:13Then she won't be at family events anymore.
41:15I promise.
41:16Remember when I smashed those bottles up her head?
41:21You grounded me for one day.
41:23Or when I hacked off all her hair.
41:26You did nothing.
41:29You even authorized a skin graft from her body.
41:31You really think she'd forgive you after all that?
41:37I did all that.
41:38Yeah.
41:39You did.
41:41Cruel, isn't it?
41:43Honestly, it's a miracle.
41:44She stayed with you as long as she did.
41:46She's really done with you, August.
42:03August.
42:04August.
42:04August.
42:05August.
42:06August.
42:06August.
42:07August.
42:08August.
42:08August.
42:10August.
42:11August.
42:12This is hell for her.
42:14Okay?
42:14and she wants no part of you in it.
42:17Shut up!
42:30Tomorrow I'll have my driver bring you back.
42:32Father arranged a match for you.
42:35Go meet the man.
42:36You'd really let me marry another man?
42:39Isn't that what you want?
42:40To be the Whitmore heiress?
42:42Fine.
42:43From now on everything goes back to the way it used to.
42:46You're my sister
42:46and I'm with Charlotte.
43:00Find out where Charlotte is now.
43:01Sir, she asked you for a divorce.
43:04Maybe it's time that you let her go.
43:06What, have you forgotten who you work for?
43:07No, I haven't, sir.
43:08I am your assistant.
43:10But I'm also someone
43:11who has feelings for Miss Charlotte.
43:13What, what did you just say?
43:15Anybody who would have met her
43:16would have fallen for her, sir.
43:18She is stunning like fire.
43:20But you, you used her
43:21as a stand-in
43:23for your guilt shield.
43:25I'm not helping you track her down, sir.
43:29Fire me if you have to.
43:31If you don't do it,
43:32I'll find somebody else who will,
43:33no matter what the cost.
43:35I'm gonna find her.
43:35She was all light and fire,
43:40so attractive,
43:41but somehow
43:42she gave me all of her attention.
43:45She always remembered the coffee I liked.
43:49I brought you a double espresso.
43:51Just the right temperature.
43:54And it was always perfect.
43:55Honey, wait!
44:04It's raining.
44:05Don't catch a cold.
44:07On rainy days,
44:07she'd warm up my jacket
44:08before I even asked.
44:12Have a good day.
44:18Even when I locked myself away
44:19working overnight,
44:21she'd sit outside the door
44:24until sunrise.
44:30She dimmed herself
44:31just to stay in my world.
44:34And all she ever wanted
44:35was for me to love her.
44:37August, will you love me?
44:40Just once?
44:42I will.
44:45From now on, Charlotte,
44:47you'll be my only love.
44:50Yes.
44:52Yes, thank you.
44:53Sir,
44:54we found her.
44:55Charlotte's in Paris.
44:56Paris?
44:57She went to her brothers?
44:59Oh, Blake.
45:00Thank you so much
45:01for coming in
45:02all the way from Paris for this.
45:04You're my only sister.
45:05I wasn't gonna miss
45:06this wedding for the world.
45:09It's your duty now.
45:11You take care of her,
45:11little princess.
45:13You ever hurt her?
45:14I will come back for her.
45:16I mean it.
45:21Don't be mad, okay?
45:23We're doing just fine
45:25the way we are.
45:30Dad,
45:31about Tessa's arranged marriage,
45:33I'll pick the guy myself.
45:36Book me the earliest flight to Paris.
45:37Yes, sir.
45:45So I've got profiles
45:46on over a dozen
45:48respectable young men
45:50for Tessa.
45:50The youngest son of the Lawson family.
45:56He won't mistreat her.
45:57Good eye.
45:58That boy has an excellent reputation.
46:02I have to go.
46:03Wait!
46:05Where's Charlotte?
46:05She hasn't been over here
46:08for dinner in a long time.
46:13You had a fight with Charlotte.
46:15No.
46:16She just went abroad for a bit.
46:17She'll be back soon.
46:18When she gets back,
46:20invite her over here for dinner.
46:23Do you know,
46:24I was feeling down last week
46:25and she bought me
46:26this incredible wine package
46:29just to cheer me up.
46:31And your mother,
46:32she can't even sleep.
46:35And Charlotte drives her
46:36to therapy
46:37every week.
46:40Yeah.
46:41That's Charlotte.
46:43Always doing the right thing
46:44and never asking
46:45for anything in return.
46:48You better make sure
46:49you start treating
46:49that girl right.
46:51I will.
46:52For the rest of my life.
46:58Auggie!
46:59Why haven't you been
47:00answering my text messages?
47:02You're going to see Charlotte?
47:04No, okay?
47:06I know I messed up yesterday,
47:07but I'll do whatever you want.
47:09Just don't go to her, please.
47:10Tessa, stop.
47:11No, no, no.
47:12We're not done
47:13unless I say we're done.
47:14Please, August.
47:15I love you.
47:15Fine.
47:16Then make our relationship public.
47:19Come on.
47:20Tell my parents everything.
47:21Tell them that we're in love.
47:23No.
47:25No, I can't.
47:26I have spoiled you long enough.
47:29I can't keep losing myself
47:30just to love you.
47:31I've chosen the right man for you
47:33and that's the last thing I do.
47:35From now on,
47:36we're just siblings.
47:46August!
47:46I'm pissed!
47:47I'm pissed!
47:48Please!
