00:00:00Billionaire from Montgomery Enterprises, Aston Montgomery, who is known for his corporate ruthlessness.
00:00:06Stella Evans, you didn't even graduate from college?
00:00:14Mr. Montgomery is your love child.
00:00:17You said there'd be no more scandals.
00:00:19No, father, there are no scandals.
00:00:21Be my fiancé and the mother of my child until my father signs the company over to me.
00:00:26Then I will pay you five million dollars.
00:00:29Fine, but only because my rent's already overdue.
00:00:32It's hard to believe you had a baby less than a year ago.
00:00:37The Montgomerys don't associate with peasants.
00:00:39Touch my wife again, I will end you.
00:00:41No, my baby!
00:00:43Maybe my father's not going to be so bad after all.
00:00:46I would do anything for you, anything for our family.
00:00:49Aston isn't the man you think he is, whatever feelings you think he may have.
00:00:55I love you, Stella Evans.
00:00:57It's all just one big lie.
00:00:59I have meant every word I have said to you.
00:01:03I'm in, Stella, I'm all in!
00:01:05Are you?
00:01:06You have to be prepared.
00:01:07I don't have, Mom.
00:01:08I'm not going to let you die, Mom.
00:01:13You're going to beat this cancer.
00:01:14Danny, what are you doing?
00:01:15I'm not going to let you die, Mom.
00:01:16You're going to beat this cancer.
00:01:20Danny, what are you doing?
00:01:21What does it look like I'm doing?
00:01:22Your red slate?
00:01:23You dig it out.
00:01:24I'm prepared. I don't have mom.
00:01:30I'm not gonna let you die, mom.
00:01:32You're gonna beat this cancer.
00:01:42Danny, what are you doing?
00:01:44What does it look like I'm doing?
00:01:46Your red slate.
00:01:48It's two days late and you said it wouldn't be an issue.
00:01:56I changed my mind.
00:01:58So, unless you want to pay up with that tiny lot of yours, you're out by tomorrow morning.
00:02:07You've got to be kidding me. I have never been late before.
00:02:10And you know my mom's medical bills are insane.
00:02:13Not my problem.
00:02:16You should have thought of that before dumping me.
00:02:21I'll get you the money.
00:02:23I have a job interview today and the signing bonus will be more than enough to cover it.
00:02:27Just give me 24 hours.
00:02:32Then you better get that job.
00:02:35Tick tock cupcake.
00:02:46Billionaire financer Robert Montgomery has announced his retirement from Montgomery Enterprises this morning, the company he built five decades ago.
00:02:59His successor is presumed to be Aston Montgomery, his eldest son and heir, who is known not only for his Playboy ways, but his corporate ruthlessness.
00:03:08Stella Evans?
00:03:11Come with me.
00:03:15So, you don't have any corporate experience and you didn't even graduate from college?
00:03:30Well, something came up at home and I couldn't.
00:03:34I'm not running a charity, Ms. Evans. I'm sorry, but I can't hire you.
00:03:38Please. I really need the money.
00:03:42So do 400 other applicants. What makes you so special?
00:03:47I may not be... experienced, but I'm a quick learner. And I really need the money.
00:03:55And I need someone who already knows what they're doing.
00:03:58This interview is over.
00:04:04Hey, you can't just walk away from me, you entitled prick!
00:04:09What did you say to me?
00:04:10You heard me just because you think you're better than everyone else.
00:04:17Shut up.
00:04:20Shut up.
00:04:27No, you...
00:04:35What is that doing in my office?
00:04:40Can you see that?
00:04:47That, Mr. Montgomery, is your love child.
00:05:10I'm a father.
00:05:11What?
00:05:14What do I do?
00:05:17You said you needed a job.
00:05:19Help me.
00:05:24Come here, Mama.
00:05:27Here you go.
00:05:31It's okay.
00:05:32I...
00:05:42I misjudged you.
00:05:48So the rumors are true.
00:05:50I'm a grandfather.
00:05:51No, Father, this is not...
00:05:52The board will never let an irresponsible playboy lead the company.
00:05:57You said there'd be no more scandals.
00:06:00I have no choice but to turn the company over to your brother, Clive.
00:06:03No, Father, there are no scandals.
00:06:08Father, this is Stella.
00:06:11My fiancé and the mother of my child.
00:06:15What the fuck?
00:06:21Excuse me?
00:06:24You expect me to believe this low-class woman is your fiancé?
00:06:29Do not speak about her that way.
00:06:30I love her.
00:06:33And I'm tired of hiding it.
00:06:36Right, honey?
00:06:39Please go with it.
00:06:42To yourself!
00:06:44Or what?
00:06:44Or you'll find out how much of a sweetheart I really am.
00:06:47You're really going to let your fiancé act like that?
00:06:49Oh yeah, I encourage it, actually.
00:06:51So unless you want to see what she's really made of,
00:06:53I suggest you back the fuck off!
00:06:55And one more thing.
00:06:58Touch my fiancé again, I'll break more than just your camera.
00:07:01Sir, sir, sir!
00:07:02Mr. Montgomery, can you answer our questions, please?
00:07:04Mr. Montgomery, you cannot ignore us, Mr. Montgomery.
00:07:07Come on now, Mr. Montgomery.
00:07:08Sir, what do you have to say?
00:07:09Sir, what do you have to say?
00:07:09Mr. Montgomery.
00:07:14Mr. Montgomery.
00:07:23This place is beautiful.
00:07:27So what do we do now?
00:07:30Simple.
00:07:30We do what fiancés do.
00:07:33Look at me.
00:07:47What the hell was that?
00:08:04This is part of the deal, we have to sell it.
00:08:08I have someone looking into where Emma came from, they should all be sorted out soon.
00:08:11What will be sorted, brother?
00:08:14Clive?
00:08:16Welcome home.
00:08:18This fiance and baby certainly came out of nowhere, didn't they?
00:08:22What are you doing here, Clive?
00:08:23I came to meet my niece and soon to be sister-in-law, you know, since it all happened so fast.
00:08:32Stella Evans, is it?
00:08:36And what trash barrel did you crawl out of?
00:08:42The trash barrel I crawled out of is none of your business.
00:08:45Au contraire, mon cherie.
00:08:49It's most definitely my business.
00:08:51The Montgomerys don't associate with peasants.
00:08:54Bad for business.
00:08:55Leave her alone.
00:08:57Or what?
00:08:59Care to find out?
00:09:04Care to find out?
00:09:08So, my playboy brother does have feelings, and for a low-class gold digger no less.
00:09:15Be careful.
00:09:16It's only a matter of time before he dumps you and that baby back into the gutter where
00:09:21you came from.
00:09:24She's cute.
00:09:28Looks just like you, brother.
00:09:35Get away from our baby and get out of our house!
00:09:50Fine.
00:09:51But there's something weird going on here, and I'll find out what it is.
00:09:56The CEO position will be mine.
00:10:00And the first thing I'll do is fire you, brother.
00:10:06Is everyone in your family like that?
00:10:18My half-brother is just the tip of the iceberg.
00:10:21So keep your guard up.
00:10:23I have a few things I have to do.
00:10:30Your room is upstairs.
00:10:33What have I gotten myself into?
00:10:36At least I'll be able to take care of my mom when this is all over.
00:10:41If there's anything you need while I'm gone, just call.
00:10:43But the nurse will take care of you.
00:10:45How did you get the money for a nurse?
00:10:47It's so expensive.
00:10:49I...
00:10:50I got a job.
00:10:53Don't worry about me.
00:10:57I gotta go.
00:10:58I'll see you soon.
00:11:03Oh!
00:11:04Oh!
00:11:09Holy...
00:11:12Hot.
00:11:18See something you like?
00:11:21I...
00:11:22Miss Evans?
00:11:23Everything okay?
00:11:24Emma needs us.
00:11:25Right behind you.
00:11:26What's wrong with her?
00:11:30Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, shh, there you go, good job baby girl.
00:11:41How did you do that?
00:11:42She just wanted to be held.
00:11:43You should hold her.
00:11:44Oh, I don't know about that.
00:11:46Oh, I don't know about that.
00:11:47Oh, I don't know about that.
00:11:48She's your daughter.
00:11:49She probably wants you more than anyone else.
00:11:50Trust me.
00:11:51I wish my dad was around.
00:11:52Well, I've never held a baby before and she's so little I don't want to hurt her.
00:11:57Aston, she's yours.
00:11:58You can't be scared of her forever.
00:11:59Um...
00:12:00Hey.
00:12:01Emma?
00:12:02Um...
00:12:03Hey.
00:12:04Emma?
00:12:05Um...
00:12:06Hey.
00:12:07Emma?
00:12:08Um...
00:12:09Hey.
00:12:10Emma?
00:12:11I'm your daddy.
00:12:12See?
00:12:13Um...
00:12:14I'm your daddy.
00:12:15See?
00:12:16No.
00:12:17I'm your daddy.
00:12:18All right.
00:12:19She's your daddy.
00:12:20I'm your daddy.
00:12:21She's your daddy.
00:12:23She's my daddy.
00:12:24Oh, I've never seen her.
00:12:28And I've never seen her before.
00:12:29She's so little I don't want to hurt her.
00:12:32Aston.
00:12:33She's yours.
00:12:34You can't be scared of her forever.
00:12:36Um...
00:12:37Hey, Emma?
00:12:39Um...
00:12:40That wasn't so bad.
00:12:47Goodnight, Emma.
00:13:02It's the private investigator.
00:13:04The sooner I find out who Emma's mom is, the better.
00:13:10Did the private chef make all this?
00:13:27No. I did.
00:13:30A playboy billionaire who cooks.
00:13:34Maybe I misjudged you.
00:13:37Not such a prick after all, huh?
00:13:40Maybe life with Aston won't be so bad after all.
00:13:46But back to business.
00:13:49My family is coming over for dinner tonight.
00:13:53They want to meet you.
00:13:56Your family.
00:13:58Aston, I can't...
00:13:59Oh, you can.
00:14:00And you will.
00:14:10This is part of the deal.
00:14:11If you want the money,
00:14:13everyone has to believe that you're my fiancé
00:14:15and the mother of my child, starting with my family.
00:14:17Mom?
00:14:24Mom?
00:14:26Mom?
00:14:27Can you hear me?
00:14:29My mom's in trouble.
00:14:36Danny, what are you doing?
00:14:38I paid you.
00:14:39Well, I changed my mind when I heard you were shacking up with some billionaire.
00:14:44Knock it off. You know my mom needs that medicine.
00:14:59Well, now that you've come into some money, you can pay me more.
00:15:14Two years, man, she'll do it.
00:15:16She'll pay you what she owes you and not a cent more.
00:15:20Is this your billionaire boyfriend?
00:15:29Actually, he's my fiancé.
00:15:33And he's rich and powerful.
00:15:37He has a bigger dick than you.
00:15:44You really think you're good enough for him?
00:15:46Well, I only fucked you because I felt sorry for you and your dying times.
00:15:58Stella is more than good enough for me.
00:15:59If you touch her again, I will kill you.
00:16:04Aston, stop. He's not worth it.
00:16:10Stella?
00:16:11Mom!
00:16:14Mom!
00:16:16He took my medicine.
00:16:23I have it right here, Mrs. Evans.
00:16:26That man would never bother you again.
00:16:29I will make sure of it.
00:16:33And I'm sending someone for your things.
00:16:35You're coming to live with us.
00:16:36Thank you for helping me with my mom.
00:16:49That wasn't part of the deal.
00:16:51Not everything I do has to be about our deal, Stella.
00:17:06Still, thank you.
00:17:09And I'm sorry for calling you a prick earlier.
00:17:13Why?
00:17:15I can be a prick.
00:17:17When I really want to be.
00:17:21Speaking of our deal.
00:17:23Be ready by 7pm for the family dinner.
00:17:26But...
00:17:28I have nothing to wear.
00:17:31I'll take care of that.
00:17:32You've had nothing to wear.
00:17:33But...
00:17:4251 00,00...
00:17:48Today, I am not talking about all sorts of things.
00:17:53I hoped you'd pick the red.
00:18:11You look beautiful.
00:18:14I'm still debating what shoes to wear, though.
00:18:17Allow me.
00:18:23There's one thing missing.
00:18:53There's one thing missing.
00:19:03A ring.
00:19:06May I?
00:19:22Perfect fit.
00:19:23Justin, it's too much.
00:19:31I don't deserve this.
00:19:32No.
00:19:33Whoever told you this is more than you deserve is wrong.
00:19:38Because nothing is too much for my future wife.
00:19:41Even if it's only for appearances.
00:19:44You were made to wear it.
00:19:51Let's go.
00:19:52I want to show off my new fiancée.
00:19:59You ready to sell this?
00:20:17Asked in a word.
00:20:27It'll take a moment.
00:20:31Go.
00:20:34I'll be fine.
00:20:34Stella.
00:20:50How nice of you to join us.
00:20:53This is the woman who trapped our Aston with a bastard child.
00:20:57It's hard to believe that you had a baby less than a year ago.
00:21:04Mother, be nice.
00:21:06I'm sure Stella's trying her best.
00:21:10Oh, I didn't know Aston had a sister.
00:21:18Sister?
00:21:19No.
00:21:20I'm Clarissa.
00:21:21Aston's ex-fiancée.
00:21:33Oh, God.
00:21:34Is she pregnant with Aston's baby?
00:21:36No wonder Aston didn't introduce you earlier.
00:21:42You're nothing like me.
00:21:43And thank God for that.
00:21:46Stella would never cheat on me and get knocked up by my brother.
00:21:49At least we didn't hide our child from the entire family.
00:21:53That's right.
00:21:54Where even is my step-grandbaby?
00:21:57You see, Robert, he's as negligent a father as he would be a CEO.
00:22:03She's with the nanny.
00:22:04To keep her from the judgment of people like you.
00:22:07All that matters is our judgment.
00:22:09And bringing in this peasant certainly doesn't help your case.
00:22:15Excuse me?
00:22:16Who are you calling peasant?
00:22:18Being rich doesn't mean you can walk all over me.
00:22:23How dare you talk back to me like that?
00:22:27You can't even control your worthless fiancée.
00:22:32You'll never be good enough to be CEO.
00:22:36Aston is the only person who should run Montgomery Enterprises.
00:22:40Anyone else as CEO would be a mistake.
00:22:43Especially your son.
00:22:53You have upset my fiancée and I won't stand for that.
00:22:55Dinner is canceled.
00:22:58Get out of my house!
00:23:02Now.
00:23:03I'm sorry if I was out of line.
00:23:22No.
00:23:23Thank you for defending me.
00:23:26You didn't have to do that.
00:23:27Of course I did.
00:23:33I'm your fiancée.
00:23:39I never should have watched you in this.
00:23:43It's not fair to you.
00:23:43I'll pay you what I owe you.
00:23:47Just...
00:23:48Take the money and go, Stella.
00:23:53What's going to happen to you and Emma?
00:23:55Don't worry about us.
00:23:56I do worry about you.
00:24:00I care about you both.
00:24:01I'm sorry, Stella, but...
00:24:02This contract with me and this is over.
00:24:05It's about to tell you just to know...
00:24:09What contract?
00:24:17What contract?
00:24:23I told you what would happen if I caught you lying.
00:24:26We're not lying.
00:24:28Prove it.
00:24:29We were just talking about a prenup.
00:24:33Aston wants me to sign one to protect your family.
00:24:37I think it's admirable.
00:24:42I see.
00:24:54You've saved me twice in the last 20 minutes.
00:24:56You are not what I expected.
00:25:03What did you expect?
00:25:07I don't know.
00:25:09Not you.
00:25:15Why are you looking at me like you want to kiss me?
00:25:18Because I do want to kiss you.
00:25:26Because I do want to kiss you.
00:25:29That's all I've thought about since you put on that red dress.
00:25:36We probably shouldn't complicate this whole fake relationship thing.
00:25:41Especially since we're not actually getting married.
00:25:46You're right.
00:25:48We'll break off this engagement as soon as possible.
00:25:50And we'll both get everything we want.
00:25:52I have some good news.
00:26:14You're getting married.
00:26:16Tomorrow.
00:26:17Tomorrow.
00:26:17Tomorrow.
00:26:17By this time tomorrow, you'll officially be husband and wife.
00:26:30Tomorrow?
00:26:33Unless there's some sort of problem with getting married tomorrow.
00:26:36It's just...
00:26:38We're not in a rush.
00:26:39But the board is.
00:26:42A child out of wedlock is a scandal.
00:26:46And one that must be remedied immediately.
00:26:51I hope that won't be a problem.
00:27:02Married?
00:27:03That wasn't part of the deal.
00:27:05I know.
00:27:05But would it be so bad being married to me?
00:27:14No.
00:27:16It's just...
00:27:18This isn't exactly how I pictured getting married.
00:27:21It takes some time to think about it.
00:27:34But I need an answer tonight.
00:27:46Mom.
00:27:46How did you know when you were ready to get married?
00:27:51I don't think anybody ever is ready.
00:27:56Truly.
00:27:57I mean, your father and I certainly weren't.
00:28:00You weren't?
00:28:01No.
00:28:02We were young.
00:28:05Too young, even.
00:28:08But your father made me feel the way I'd never felt before.
00:28:11You made me feel loved.
00:28:15Valued.
00:28:18Whole.
00:28:18It didn't even work out.
00:28:36It ended before I was born.
00:28:40Just because something doesn't last
00:28:42doesn't mean you can't enjoy it while you have it.
00:28:46Plus, your father gave me you.
00:28:56Which is more than enough.
00:28:59I can't deny it.
00:29:01I want to marry Aston.
00:29:02Even if it's temporary.
00:29:04He and Emma are my family.
00:29:07But we will break my heart when it's all over.
00:29:08She just went down.
00:29:24Look, I know this isn't what you wanted.
00:29:26And you deserve to marry someone who truly cares about you.
00:29:31So, if you want to walk away now, I won't blame you.
00:29:41So, do you have an answer for me?
00:29:48So, do you have an answer for me?
00:29:52I do.
00:29:52Aston, look at me.
00:30:00I never thought I would get married as part of a contract,
00:30:02but I said I'd help you.
00:30:05And I'll keep my word.
00:30:10It means a lot to me.
00:30:11I have to say, I'm surprised Aston is going through with this.
00:30:19I definitely thought that he would have dumped you by now.
00:30:22He probably will once he sees her in that rag.
00:30:26It was my mother's wedding dress.
00:30:28Of course it was.
00:30:30Only a poor person would wear something like that.
00:30:33I'm surprised your Prince Charming didn't buy you something better.
00:30:35He clearly doesn't care about you.
00:30:38It doesn't matter what you think.
00:30:43I know how Aston feels.
00:30:45Are you sure?
00:30:46If he really loved you,
00:30:48he would have given you his mother's ring.
00:30:54Are you sure?
00:30:56If he really loved you,
00:30:58he would have given you his mother's ring.
00:31:08Is that what he gave you, Clarissa?
00:31:13No.
00:31:14But that's only because I wanted something bigger.
00:31:21From Mr. Montgomery.
00:31:23For his fiancée.
00:31:25Oh my God.
00:31:28It's gorgeous.
00:31:29That's the late Mrs. Montgomery's necklace.
00:31:33That's supposed to be mine.
00:31:35I am under strict orders
00:31:37to allow nobody but Mrs. Evans near this necklace.
00:31:42Especially you.
00:31:43No.
00:31:44Oh.
00:31:45Oh.
00:31:45Oh.
00:31:45Oh.
00:31:59You look like the future, Mrs. Montgomery.
00:32:07I do.
00:32:09If only this were real.
00:32:11I know that you and Aston are lying about your relationship.
00:32:31So if you know what's best,
00:32:33you won't go through with this wedding.
00:32:36Aston isn't who you think he is.
00:32:41Aston isn't the man you think he is.
00:32:51Whatever money you think you might be getting.
00:32:55Whatever feelings you think he may have.
00:32:58It's all just one big lie.
00:33:01Your vision of the future is not the reality.
00:33:04Thank you for the advice.
00:33:13But I don't need it.
00:33:15I can handle myself.
00:33:17And nothing you say can scare me.
00:33:23Say no to Aston in front of everyone.
00:33:26Or I'll make sure you regret it.
00:33:29Your choice, Stella Evans.
00:33:31Don't make the wrong one.
00:33:33You look beautiful.
00:33:59Hey, is everything okay?
00:34:04Is it true?
00:34:05Is Aston just using me to get what he wants?
00:34:08Is he just using Emma?
00:34:10Dearly beloved,
00:34:11we are gathered here today
00:34:14to join this man and woman in holy night.
00:34:16Marriage is powerful in a way.
00:34:18It makes you feel lucky to be...
00:34:19Do you take Aston to be your lawfully wedded husband?
00:34:21I'm sorry, I can't marry you.
00:34:39I'm sorry, I can't marry you.
00:34:41What the hell was that about?
00:34:59This is all fake, Aston?
00:35:01Every word you're telling me,
00:35:03every look you're giving me,
00:35:04is it all just some charade?
00:35:05Jesus, is this necklace even real?
00:35:09God...
00:35:10I have meant every word I've said to you.
00:35:40None of this is a lie.
00:35:43And this necklace?
00:35:47My mother left it to me before she died.
00:35:49She said, uh, that I should only give it to someone I care about.
00:35:55Someone I saw a future with.
00:36:10I'm falling for you, Stella Evans.
00:36:17I have been since the moment we met.
00:36:21I don't know how I feel right now.
00:36:27Today's just been a lot and my mind is all over the place.
00:36:33You're right.
00:36:34This wedding's way too much too soon.
00:36:38Stay here and I'll tell everybody the wedding is off.
00:36:50Excellent.
00:36:51A runaway bride is an even bigger scandal than a love child.
00:37:03This must be a record, brother.
00:37:05Two fiancés down.
00:37:07At least this one made it to the altar.
00:37:11Hi, everyone.
00:37:12Sorry to keep you waiting, but there won't be...
00:37:15Any more interruptions?
00:37:19Who's ready for a wedding?
00:37:20Okay, let's try this again.
00:37:45Dearly beloved,
00:37:49We are gathered here today to join this man and this woman in holy matrimony.
00:37:54Marriage is powerful in ways you'd never expect.
00:37:57It's something that makes you feel lucky to be alive exactly when and where you are.
00:38:02It's choosing your partner at every moment of every day
00:38:07and of learning how to love even the darkest parts of another person.
00:38:11A true partner stays with you through thick and thin,
00:38:14in sickness and in health,
00:38:16for better or worse,
00:38:17for richer or poorer,
00:38:19and death do you part.
00:38:21Aston,
00:38:24do you take Stella to be your lawfully wedded wife?
00:38:27I do.
00:38:28And Stella,
00:38:30do you take this man to be your lawfully wedded husband?
00:38:33Stella,
00:38:34do you take this man to be your lawfully wedded husband?
00:38:42Stella,
00:38:43do you take this man to be your lawfully wedded husband?
00:38:49Stella,
00:38:50do you take this man to be your lawfully wedded husband?
00:38:55I do.
00:38:56Good.
00:38:57You may kiss the bride now.
00:38:59I'd like to congratulate my eldest son on his marriage today.
00:39:15and to announce that he's going to be taking over Montgomery Enterprises
00:39:20as my successor and CEO tomorrow.
00:39:24This is bullshit.
00:39:26CEO should be mine.
00:39:31This is your fault,
00:39:32you little bitch.
00:39:33I hope that hurt.
00:39:36Not as much as this world.
00:39:39My baby!
00:39:41Not as much as this world.
00:39:44You're not my baby!
00:39:48What the hell?
00:39:49You ruined my suit!
00:39:50You touched my wife again.
00:39:51I will end you.
00:39:52Now get the hell out of my wedding.
00:40:01Baby!
00:40:02You're just going to stand there and let him do that?
00:40:05You're right.
00:40:06I should have stopped him before the slap.
00:40:08Let's get out of here before Stella starts to ruin our wedding day.
00:40:14I'm fine.
00:40:15You barely got me.
00:40:20Whoa.
00:40:21Are you okay?
00:40:22I'm fine.
00:40:23You barely got me.
00:40:24So...
00:40:25husband.
00:40:26What should we do next?
00:40:27I have wanted you since the moment we met.
00:40:28Mrs. Montgomery.
00:40:29I have wanted you since the moment we met.
00:40:33Mrs. Montgomery.
00:40:34I have wanted you since the moment we met.
00:40:35Mrs. Montgomery.
00:40:36I have wanted you since the moment we met.
00:40:38Mrs. Montgomery.
00:40:39I have wanted you since the moment we met.
00:40:46Mrs. Montgomery.
00:40:47I have wanted you since the moment we met.
00:40:50Mrs. Montgomery.
00:40:52Mrs. Montgomery.
00:40:53Mrs. Montgomery.
00:40:54Thanks.
00:40:55How are you going?
00:40:57Mr. Montgomery.
00:40:58If I don't leave now...
00:40:59I won't be able to stop myself...
00:41:02from tearing you out of that dress.
00:41:03Mrs. Montgomery.
00:41:04Where are you going?
00:41:12If I don't leave now, I won't be able to stop myself from tearing you out of that dress.
00:41:22Is that what I wanted you to stop?
00:41:24This is the moment I met you. You have consumed my everything. I can't eat. I can't sleep.
00:41:40I can't work without thinking about you. Without imagining this.
00:41:48Do you want me?
00:41:50More than anything.
00:42:21Stella, help!
00:42:29The baby's not breathing.
00:42:37Hey.
00:42:38I don't know what happened. One minute she was breathing and the next thing she...
00:42:43Thank God.
00:42:45Hey.
00:42:47Hey. It's okay. She's okay now. See?
00:42:49Hi.
00:43:01That's the most terrified I've ever been in my life.
00:43:04That's because she's your baby girl and you love her.
00:43:10What if I can't do this on my own?
00:43:11What if I can't raise an entire human being?
00:43:17You can do this.
00:43:20Actually, you already are doing it.
00:43:22All you have to do is love her.
00:43:25That's more than my dad did for me.
00:43:27It's the private investigator. He might have information on who Emma's mom is.
00:43:40I'm not gonna have to do this.
00:43:43I'm not gonna have to do this.
00:43:45I'm gonna have to do this.
00:43:47I'm gonna have to do this.
00:43:48I'm gonna have to do this.
00:43:50It's okay.
00:43:52It's okay.
00:43:54Mom.
00:43:56I wanted to let you know that I went through with the wedding.
00:43:59And I brought you a picture.
00:44:00I'll show you a picture.
00:44:04Can I even wear your dress?
00:44:07Stella.
00:44:09Oh, you're so beautiful.
00:44:14I'm so glad you found someone to take care of you after. Oh, God.
00:44:21What are you talking about?
00:44:23What's this? A clinical trial? But it cost 10 million dollars? Something like that could save my mom.
00:44:38But how am I ever gonna get that much money?
00:44:47There you are.
00:44:50Everything okay?
00:44:53Yep.
00:44:55What are you doing?
00:44:59I have to take a paternity test.
00:45:10I have to take a paternity test.
00:45:15I guess we'll know soon if I'm Emma's father.
00:45:19If?
00:45:20Well, they got the footage from the office the day Emma was dropped off.
00:45:24But the woman who was there...
00:45:27I don't recognize her.
00:45:28I don't recognize her.
00:45:31So you just forgot someone you slept with?
00:45:36That wasn't a good time in my life.
00:45:39I made a lot of bad decisions.
00:45:40But I've changed.
00:45:43But I've changed.
00:45:45You've changed me.
00:45:47Which...
00:45:49is why I need you to come with me to the board meeting today.
00:45:53You keep me grounded.
00:45:54Of course I'll go with you.
00:45:55Of course I'll go with you.
00:46:03Today is about more than my retirement.
00:46:06It's about the future of Montgomery Enterprises.
00:46:08A future that will be ripped to shreds if you allow your lying son to become CEO.
00:46:16What are you talking about?
00:46:17What are you talking about?
00:46:21You.
00:46:23You're not the mother of his child.
00:46:28You're not the mother of his child.
00:46:31You're lying.
00:46:33They're both lying to all of you.
00:46:35Stella Evans.
00:46:3710 o'clock interview with Aston Montgomery for the Executive Assistant position.
00:46:47Looks like he offered a different job to her altogether.
00:46:51This man would go so far as to marry a complete stranger in order to become your CEO.
00:46:58I don't know how much he's paying you, but it must be a lot.
00:47:02If this is true son,
00:47:05you're an embarrassment to this family and this company.
00:47:10The board can't proceed with a vote.
00:47:14It's true.
00:47:16Stella was there to interview that day.
00:47:18Me.
00:47:20To see if I was up for the challenge to raising our daughter.
00:47:23But this isn't about my personal life.
00:47:25This is about what's best for Montgomery Enterprises going into the future.
00:47:28And since I've become COO, I have more than doubled our profits.
00:47:33And if that's not enough for you, then I don't know what is.
00:47:38It doesn't matter what you say.
00:47:40Mom already promised me the position of CEO would be mine.
00:47:44Enough.
00:47:48We will vote now.
00:47:50Is there a vote for Clive?
00:47:52And for Aston?
00:48:05It's a tie.
00:48:07So it all comes down to my father.
00:48:09And I have decided.
00:48:12And I have decided.
00:48:17The new CEO of Montgomery Enterprises.
00:48:21Is.
00:48:26The new CEO of Montgomery Enterprises.
00:48:30Is.
00:48:33Aston Montgomery.
00:48:35What about me?
00:48:40I've looked at the financials.
00:48:42You've spent more time at the country club than in the boardroom.
00:48:46It's not my fault their Cobb salads are excellent.
00:48:51And the boardroom is boring.
00:48:57Come on.
00:48:59Congratulations, Aston.
00:49:01The new CEO of Montgomery Enterprises.
00:49:04But make me doubt anything else.
00:49:06And I'll rip everything away from you two.
00:49:08Without hesitation.
00:49:09Oh my gosh.
00:49:23So what's your first act as CEO?
00:49:27I violate every page of the HR handbook.
00:49:29That's a good thing you never gave me that job.
00:49:37I need you.
00:49:39I need you.
00:50:09Just a minute.
00:50:10Oh my God.
00:50:11I can't help you tap it
00:50:14Let me get you there
00:50:16Let me get you there
00:50:17Will you take me higher than I've ever been
00:50:21When I look into your eyes
00:50:23I can't help you tap it
00:50:25So close and yet so far
00:50:28Let me get you there
00:50:29Let me get you there
00:50:31Just a minute
00:50:33Just a minute
00:50:33Aston
00:50:41The board would like to see you
00:50:44To go over some financials
00:50:46Of course
00:50:47Knock knock
00:51:01Clarissa, if you're here to bully me
00:51:06I am not to end the mood
00:51:07That's not why I'm here
00:51:08I'm here as a courtesy
00:51:10You deserve the truth
00:51:12And clearly Aston isn't going to give it to you
00:51:15This baby isn't Clive's
00:51:20It's Aston's
00:51:23What the hell are you talking about
00:51:32That baby cannot be Aston's
00:51:33Well we clearly couldn't tell you
00:51:35Until the ruse was over
00:51:36Until he became CEO
00:51:38But now that it's all over
00:51:40And Aston got what he wanted
00:51:42We don't need you anymore
00:51:43He doesn't need you anymore
00:51:48What the hell are you talking about
00:51:56Open Aston's desk door
00:51:59And find out
00:52:00Oh my god
00:52:12He signed the divorce papers
00:52:14Clarissa's telling the truth
00:52:16You can go now
00:52:27Sweet Emma
00:52:38I'm going to miss you so much
00:52:42What's going on?
00:52:46I'm saying goodbye to Emma
00:52:47And then I'm out of here
00:52:48Just like you want me to be
00:52:50Stella, why are you packing?
00:52:57Here
00:52:58I signed up
00:52:59You don't have to worry about me anymore
00:53:00What are you talking about?
00:53:02Come on Aston
00:53:03You used me to get everything you wanted
00:53:05I was a fool to think we could ever be together
00:53:08That we could ever have a family together
00:53:10Oh and by the way
00:53:11Congratulations on the baby
00:53:13I hope you and Clarissa are really happy together
00:53:16Wait
00:53:17Wait
00:53:20Please
00:53:29Let me explain
00:53:31What could you possibly have to say to me?
00:53:37There is nothing and will never be anything between me and Clarissa ever again
00:53:42I'm not even the father of your child
00:53:43And these
00:53:44I have these drawn up the day I met you before
00:53:46I knew this could be anything more than a contract
00:53:49And miss
00:53:50Just take it
00:53:52Please just take everything out
00:53:55All I want
00:53:55Is you and Emma
00:53:57I could take or leave anything
00:53:58You don't mean that
00:54:00Of course I mean it
00:54:02I have meant
00:54:03Every word
00:54:05I have said to you
00:54:06I'm in Stella
00:54:07I'm all in
00:54:08Are you
00:54:11I'm in Stella
00:54:16I'm all in
00:54:17Are you
00:54:19Yeah
00:54:22I'm all in
00:54:23Yes
00:54:30The paternity results are in
00:54:39I'm not a father
00:54:45I'm not a father
00:54:47I can't believe I'm not a father
00:54:49I can't believe I'm not a father
00:54:53I can't believe I'm not a father
00:54:57I can't believe I'm not a father
00:54:59I can't believe I'm not a father
00:55:01I can't believe I'm not a father
00:55:05I can't believe I'm not a father
00:55:07her father. If she doesn't belong to me, then why would that woman have shown up at my office
00:55:16and made me believe she was mine?
00:55:21I can't tell you why this is happening, Aston, but Emma's lucky to have you as a dad.
00:55:28Biological or not.
00:55:31We need to find the truth.
00:55:37Dahlia's behind it all.
00:55:45I'm not telling you anything.
00:55:47This isn't a game, Dahlia. She's a child. Where did Emma come from?
00:55:52Step down as CEO and I'll tell you.
00:55:59Step down as CEO and I'll tell you.
00:56:01Are you kidding me? This is way bigger than a CEO position.
00:56:05This is a child's life you're messing with.
00:56:08Shut up, you little tramp. If you hadn't come along pretending to be her mother,
00:56:13the scandal would have proceeded as planned. And that little child would be back at the orphanage,
00:56:20right where she belonged.
00:56:22Orphanage?
00:56:23That's right. The baby's trash, just like you.
00:56:28You better get control of your little wife.
00:56:49Or nothing.
00:56:52You will not speak about my wife or my family that way.
00:56:55Get out.
00:57:09Call every orphanage in the city until you find one that's missing a baby.
00:57:11It's okay. It's okay. We're gonna figure this out.
00:57:29Oh my god, did she just call me mama?
00:57:31She's yours if you want her to be.
00:57:34I don't want to be, but until we figure out what's going on, I can't get attached.
00:57:47Mr. Montgomery! Mr. Montgomery! Mr. Montgomery!
00:57:50What can you say about the recent allegations that Miss Evans is not the mother of your son's child?
00:57:55Mr. Montgomery! You can't ignore us! Mr. Montgomery!
00:58:04What's going on?
00:58:06The press is having a field day out there. I told you to. No more scandals!
00:58:11What are you talking about?
00:58:14I went out on a limb for you, son. I trusted you. And this has been a lie the whole time?
00:58:21You say she's the mother of your child? Prove it!
00:58:24I'll expect you to step down as CEO tomorrow morning.
00:58:30How do we prove it?
00:58:33Simple. Take a maternity test.
00:58:42How do we prove it?
00:58:45Simple. Take a maternity test.
00:58:54I'm not going away, Mr. Montgomery!
00:58:56I'm not going away, Mr. Montgomery!
00:58:58I'm not going away. I have some questions. Come on, Al.
00:59:02Whoa, whoa, whoa.
00:59:04Okay.
00:59:06Aston, if I take a maternity test, they're going to know that Emma's not mine and then we may lose her.
00:59:14Forever.
00:59:14No.
00:59:18We've been lying.
00:59:21If we find out, there's no way we can keep Emma.
00:59:23Mom!
00:59:32Mom!
00:59:33Mom!
00:59:33My mom is dying!
00:59:40My head is so warm.
00:59:43It's okay.
00:59:44My heart was racing. I was so scared.
00:59:57It's okay.
01:00:01It's okay. It's all gonna be okay.
01:00:14Hey.
01:00:19My mom's getting worse.
01:00:23She needs this experimental treatment, but we can't afford it, so...
01:00:29Why didn't you tell me?
01:00:33I didn't want to be a burden to you.
01:00:35You can never be a burden.
01:00:38How much does the treatment cost?
01:00:45Ten million dollars.
01:00:48I'll pay it. Every penny.
01:00:57I'll pay it. Every penny.
01:01:01Aston...
01:01:02Like I said, money doesn't matter. I would do anything for you. Anything for our family.
01:01:10Thank you. You have no idea what this means to me.
01:01:14How do you always know just what to say to make me feel better?
01:01:27Because I know you.
01:01:29I know what you want. I know what you need.
01:01:32That's what happens to someone when you...
01:01:33When you...
01:01:37When you...
01:01:39When you what?
01:01:42When you love someone.
01:01:45And I love you...
01:01:46Stella Evans.
01:01:47Stella Evans.
01:01:50And I love you...
01:01:52Stella Evans.
01:01:54And I love you...
01:01:55Stella Evans.
01:02:03You love me?
01:02:07I do.
01:02:08I can't believe it's taking me someone the same.
01:02:18Please tell me you feel the same.
01:02:24I don't know what I'm feeling.
01:02:26It's all just...
01:02:28It's too much.
01:02:29I...
01:02:32I understand.
01:02:41Hi. I'd like to pay a bill for Mary Evans.
01:02:46It has.
01:02:49By who?
01:02:50I see.
01:02:53I see.
01:02:56I see.
01:03:14A year ago...
01:03:16I gave up my baby girl.
01:03:20I had no choice and it broke my heart.
01:03:22The chances are almost impossible but...
01:03:25I have to know.
01:03:27Could Emma be my daughter?
01:03:40Hello.
01:03:42I'd like to schedule a maternity test.
01:03:53Hey, Stella, do you...
01:03:58Everything okay?
01:03:59Fine.
01:04:05You seem...
01:04:07Off.
01:04:12I'm fine.
01:04:13I just...
01:04:15I have a lot on my mind.
01:04:18I just can't stop thinking about Emma's mother and how...
01:04:21Our lives could come crashing down over some maternity tests.
01:04:24But then don't take it.
01:04:26What?
01:04:28No, I can't ask you to do that.
01:04:29That's not fair to you.
01:04:33Don't worry about what's fair to...
01:04:35It's all I'm worried about.
01:04:37You mean more to me than this CEO position.
01:04:40He's trying to help, but...
01:04:43If Emma's somehow mine, I can save Aston's job and his reputation.
01:04:48Just...
01:04:50Don't do anything rash, okay?
01:04:52We still have until tomorrow to figure it out.
01:04:59I need to ask...
01:05:01Does the name Andrew Beaumont mean anything to you?
01:05:06No.
01:05:08Should it?
01:05:10Well...
01:05:12He paid for your mother's treatment.
01:05:14All...
01:05:15Ten million.
01:05:29Mom...
01:05:31Who's Andrew Beaumont?
01:05:33How...
01:05:37How do you know about him?
01:05:40He paid for your treatment.
01:05:42Who is he?
01:05:47Mom?
01:05:49Mom?
01:05:51Mom!
01:05:53Someone call the doctor!
01:05:54Mom!
01:05:55Mom!
01:06:11I spoke with the doctors.
01:06:15She's been put in a medically induced coma until the swelling in her brain subsides.
01:06:20It's all my fault if I wouldn't have pushed her.
01:06:25No, Estella.
01:06:26It is not your fault.
01:06:28I know.
01:06:29I know.
01:06:30And I know she's sick.
01:06:31I just wish there was something I could do.
01:06:33She's with the doctors now.
01:06:35She's getting the treatment she needs.
01:06:38It'll all be fine.
01:06:41No matter how much you keep blaming yourself.
01:06:44I'll say it again.
01:06:45It's not your fault.
01:07:16Okay, Emma.
01:07:19Time to learn the truth.
01:07:28In breaking news, CEO Aston Montgomery has called a last-minute press conference to address the future of Montgomery Enterprises.
01:07:35Reporters have it on good authority that he is prepared to step down as CEO, handing the company over to his half-brother, Clive Montgomery, in the wake of a paternity scandal.
01:07:45No!
01:07:46No!
01:07:47No!
01:07:48No!
01:07:49No!
01:07:50No!
01:07:51No!
01:07:52No!
01:07:53No!
01:07:54No!
01:07:55No!
01:07:56No!
01:07:57No!
01:07:58No!
01:07:59No!
01:08:00No!
01:08:01No!
01:08:02No!
01:08:03Oh my god!
01:08:05I can save him!
01:08:06I can save him.
01:08:11Do you have anything to say about this?
01:08:12Ma'am, how do you answer the allegation that you say about the accusation?
01:08:14What do you say about the allegation that accusation is against you?
01:08:17Mr. Montgomery, you do understand that not forcing your wife to take a maternity test is an admission of guilt, right?
01:08:24Which means you've been lying.
01:08:27To everyone.
01:08:28Wait!
01:08:29We're not lying.
01:08:31I took the test.
01:08:33I have the results right here.
01:08:36Hold on, ma'am, ma'am, come on.
01:08:37Don't be entitled to it now.
01:08:38Hey!
01:08:39You know how much I'm willing to pay for those?
01:08:40Not enough.
01:08:41Trust me.
01:08:42Hold on, ma'am, ma'am, come on.
01:08:43Don't be entitled to it now.
01:08:44Do you understand what it's happening?
01:08:45How long has this happened to happen?
01:08:46You took the maternity test?
01:08:47Why?
01:08:48Aston, there's something I need to tell you.
01:08:49Show us the results, sweetheart.
01:08:50Prove your husband's not lying.
01:08:51Mm-hmm.
01:08:52I'll be here.
01:08:53I'll be here.
01:08:54Ma'am, ma'am.
01:08:55Ma'am, ma'am.
01:08:56Ma'am, ma'am.
01:08:57Ma'am, ma'am, ma'am.
01:08:58Ma'am, ma'am, ma'am.
01:09:06I don't owe anyone proof.
01:09:09Believe me or don't.
01:09:10But I am Emma's mother.
01:09:12I believe you.
01:09:13Don't even think about it, Dahlia.
01:09:24This is so sweet.
01:09:27If only it mattered.
01:09:30You're too late, Stella.
01:09:32Aston already stepped down.
01:09:35Yes.
01:09:36To protect you.
01:09:37To protect Emma.
01:09:38Aston, you were fine.
01:09:39All you've ever wanted to do is be seen.
01:09:40To be a great husband to you and a great father to Emma.
01:09:43That's all that matters to me.
01:09:44We can figure out the rest.
01:09:46It looks like you're working for me now, brother.
01:09:49I own the company now.
01:09:50I'm not.
01:09:51I'm not.
01:09:52I'm not.
01:09:53I'm not.
01:09:54I'm not.
01:09:55I'm not.
01:09:56I'm not.
01:09:57I'm not.
01:09:58I'm not.
01:09:59I'm not.
01:10:00I'm not.
01:10:01I'm not.
01:10:02I'm not.
01:10:03I own the company now.
01:10:06Which means I own you.
01:10:09Not quite.
01:10:11I just received an offer from Montgomery Enterprises.
01:10:16One that I couldn't refuse.
01:10:18Meet our buyer.
01:10:21Andrew Beaumont.
01:10:22Stella's father.
01:10:36Stella.
01:10:37You look just like your mother.
01:10:40This is ridiculous.
01:10:42You're trying to tell me.
01:10:43That Stella's related to a billionaire.
01:10:44Ha!
01:10:45She's nothing but a piece of trash.
01:10:46Don't.
01:10:47Speak about my daughter that way.
01:10:48Your daughter?
01:10:49How dare you call me that?
01:10:50You left mom and I.
01:10:51No.
01:10:52Stella, I never left you.
01:10:53Your mother, she kicked me out.
01:10:55Because I wasn't the husband or the father that I needed to be.
01:10:56But I'm here now.
01:10:57To make it up to you.
01:10:58This company belongs to me.
01:10:59Not this low-class peasant bitch.
01:11:00No!
01:11:01No!
01:11:02No!
01:11:03No!
01:11:04No!
01:11:05No!
01:11:06No!
01:11:07No!
01:11:08No!
01:11:09No!
01:11:10No!
01:11:11No!
01:11:12No!
01:11:13No!
01:11:14No!
01:11:15No!
01:11:16No!
01:11:17No!
01:11:18No!
01:11:19No!
01:11:20No!
01:11:21No!
01:11:22No!
01:11:23No!
01:11:24No!
01:11:25My baby!
01:11:26Damn!
01:11:27That felt good.
01:11:30Get out of my office or I'll have you arrested for assault.
01:11:33Actually, the office belongs to my daughter now.
01:11:39As does the company.
01:11:42What?
01:11:47I'm the CEO of Montgomery Enterprises?
01:11:54Oh yes.
01:11:55Which means you get to decide how we get rid of Clive.
01:12:09You're nothing more than a spoiled little rich kid who thinks the world is out to get him.
01:12:15You never deserved this company.
01:12:17So fuck off.
01:12:18I...
01:12:23Mother!
01:12:24You'll let her talk to me that way?!
01:12:27Dahlia's words have no power.
01:12:29Not anymore.
01:12:30Oh...
01:12:31Uh...
01:12:32Oh...
01:12:33Oh...
01:12:35Oh...
01:12:37This...
01:12:39Can't be happening.
01:12:41I planned everything perfectly.
01:12:45That little orphan would have made the perfect scandal if not for Stella interfering.
01:12:50fearing. And you, you were supposed to convince that little bitch that you were pregnant with
01:12:57Aston's baby. But no, you failed and fucked us all. I didn't. I did. Hey, hey, hey. Clive,
01:13:08Clarissa, get the hell out of my office. You too, Dahlia. Get out. You can't kick me out.
01:13:14I'm Robert's wife. Not anymore. I want a divorce.
01:13:22What? What? This is not...
01:13:25I always thought she looked just like you when she was sleeping.
01:13:44I never thought I'd see her again. I never wanted to give her up, but when mom got sick
01:13:53and the medical bills, I just... I knew we couldn't afford it.
01:13:59It's all in the past. But I want to talk about her future.
01:14:11How would you feel about one more?
01:14:18I could be persuaded.
01:14:21Let me persuade you.
01:14:22So, what's your first order of business as CEO?
01:14:51Well, since I've already violated the employee handbook.
01:14:57Twice.
01:15:01I was thinking we could talk business.
01:15:05No one knows more about Montgomery Enterprises than you.
01:15:11I was hoping you might show me the ropes.
01:15:15I'd be happy to.
01:15:16Let's smile at the handbook one more time.
01:15:23Let's smile.
01:15:27I've been up out of my mind.
01:15:29For the sunrise.
01:15:33Yeah.
01:15:35And when it's finally time,
01:15:38it's just more of the same.
01:15:40Got the rest of the day.
01:15:44Said it a thousand times.
01:15:46I don't know.
01:16:16I'm pregnant.
01:16:28Hey.
01:16:30Your mother and I were just catching up.
01:16:34I still can't believe this.
01:16:38Forgive me for not telling you about your father sooner.
01:16:42When I got sick, I decided to write him.
01:16:46Forgiving him.
01:16:49I never thought you would.
01:16:53And, um...
01:16:56I hope you can forgive me too.
01:16:59You saved me and my family. Of course I'll forgive you.
01:17:08You know, speaking of family, I'd really like to meet my grandbaby.
01:17:14I'd really like to meet my grandbaby.
01:17:21Which one?
01:17:29Stella!
01:17:31Aston, your assistant called and said it was an emergency.
01:17:40Stella Evans?
01:17:42Yes.
01:17:44Come with me.
01:17:48The last time I heard those words, I got roped into a fake marriage.
01:18:01Well, this time, I'm hoping you'll say yes to a real one.
01:18:08Aston, is that your mother's ring?
01:18:21It is.
01:18:23And you're the only person who's ever been worthy of it.
01:18:27Stella Evans, ever since you stepped into my office, you have changed the course of my life.
01:18:33You have given me a beautiful child.
01:18:36Children.
01:18:38I'm pregnant.
01:18:41I want forever with you.
01:18:47No deals.
01:18:48No schemes.
01:18:50Just us.
01:18:53Will you marry me?
01:18:58Yes! Yes, I'll marry you!
01:19:12It's beautiful.
01:19:16Just like you.
01:19:21There we go!
01:19:33What do you say, Mrs. Montgomery?
01:19:35I'm sure you've got all those popsicle stuff.
01:19:37Let's do it.
01:19:41What is she?
01:19:42See my voice now?
01:19:44I know, that's how I feel.
01:19:45I know...
01:19:49I love you.
01:19:53How much do you love me?
01:19:56Enough to last forever.
01:20:11You
