00:00:00Where are you Desmond? I've been waiting for 15 minutes already. I mean you probably can't be too
00:00:10far. You've reached Desmond Belmont. Leave a message. Desmond hey I got the pizza. Boring
00:00:20now where are you? Okay never mind I'll call you back I see you.
00:00:30Desmond?
00:00:50Desmond? I suspected he was having an affair. The last minute business trips. The late
00:00:59nights. The smell of a stranger's perfume clinging to his shirt when he thought I
00:01:05wouldn't notice. His mom warned me he would cheat and never stay faithful she said.
00:01:10But I didn't want to believe her. It was on a rainy night just like this one when
00:01:19Desmond promised me forever. Desmond? Hey hey where are you? Um there's this creep
00:01:25following me. I'm really scared.
00:01:31Come on baby. Don't run from me. I'll show you a good time.
00:01:35Don't touch me!
00:01:37No! Get your hands off my girl!
00:01:41You fuckin psycho!
00:01:50Are you okay? Are you okay? Your hand you're bleeding. You're bleeding. I'm fine it's just a scratch. I'm sorry.
00:02:01psycho
00:02:05Are you okay? Are you okay in your hand? You're bleeding. I'm fine. It's just a scratch. I'm sorry. I
00:02:13Should have come sooner from now on. I promise I will always show up. I will protect you forever
00:02:23But forever
00:02:27Was a lie
00:02:32How did we let this happen Desmond once upon a time you'd risk your life for me
00:02:38Now you won't even pick up my call
00:02:42Funny how love dies
00:02:44Quietly on a night just like this his mom is right
00:02:51We are never meant
00:03:01Beatrice I'm surprised you're calling
00:03:04I'm ready to talk
00:03:06Madam miss Lawson has arrived send her in
00:03:12Beatrice you look like a wet dog
00:03:19You look like a wet dog
00:03:21Though that's not surprising given your background
00:03:23Which of these do you think would be nice for Miss Fairfax?
00:03:27She's marrying Desmond after all why in the world he chose to marry someone like you is beyond me
00:03:34She's much more a lady of class sleeping with a married man very classy
00:03:40Don't you get sarcastic with me Beatrice
00:03:42I
00:03:43Encouraged him to stay silent about the marriage the Fairfax family would be ashamed if they knew he was married to someone with
00:03:50Your lowly background
00:03:52So you will get a divorce from Desmond you will stay quiet about the marriage and then I don't want to see you around Desmond anymore
00:04:03understood
00:04:05Yes
00:04:08But I want 50 million dollars
00:04:14Excuse me are you trying to rob me please 50 million is nothing once Desmond marries the Fairfax heiress
00:04:22But that will only happen if I divorce him and stay silent. That's what you want
00:04:28Right
00:04:30Fine
00:04:31You get the divorce agreement and I'll get you your money
00:04:3550 million exactly and the deal's off
00:04:43We've been married for 10 years and no one knows
00:04:48I'm gonna go talk to Mr. Vermont
00:04:52I'm your wife, but you hide me like I'm just some dirty secret lover
00:04:58But once we're divorced you won't have to be embarrassed by me anymore
00:05:05How was your trip?
00:05:11How was your trip?
00:05:12Fine
00:05:13Fine
00:05:14Fine
00:05:25I uh...
00:05:26I just need to sign these reports they're due tomorrow
00:05:28Are you gonna be home for dinner?
00:05:29No I'll probably be late so just eat without me
00:05:30You know sometimes I don't even think you're trying to hide your mistress
00:05:35The way you so openly let her leave her things around
00:05:37I'm your wife, yet I'm the one you chose to keep seeing me
00:05:38You know sometimes I don't even think you're trying to hide your mistress the way you so openly let her leave her things around
00:05:42I'm your wife, yet I'm the one you chose to keep secret
00:05:49Goodbye, Desmond
00:05:50Mm-hmm, dear
00:05:51But now?
00:05:52I don't even think you're trying to hide your mistress the way you so openly let her leave her things around
00:05:56I'm your wife, yet I'm the one you chose to keep secret
00:05:59Goodbye, Desmond
00:06:06Mm-hmm, dear
00:06:17But now, you won't have to keep me a secret anymore
00:06:24Do you have news for me?
00:06:31He signed.
00:06:34Really? Just like that?
00:06:36I guess he doesn't love you anymore.
00:06:42This is it.
00:06:44My ticket to freedom.
00:06:46I'm finally moving on.
00:06:54I brought you a gift.
00:06:57This is one of a kind.
00:06:59I even handpicked the diamonds myself.
00:07:03I don't need any more expensive jewelry.
00:07:05Maybe you should give that to Madeline Fairfax.
00:07:07She'd enjoy it.
00:07:08Why would I give the gift to her?
00:07:10I just think the Fairfax family would like an expensive gift like that one.
00:07:14What's this all about?
00:07:15I don't owe the Fairfax family any gifts.
00:07:18Yes, Madeline and I are working on the Z-Star project together.
00:07:21That's it.
00:07:21There's nothing going on between the two of us.
00:07:26Desmond, if you love someone else, you can go be with her.
00:07:30We can get a divorce.
00:07:35We are not getting divorced.
00:07:40We are never getting divorced.
00:07:43Do you understand?
00:07:44It's a little too late for that, Desmond.
00:07:47You already signed the divorce papers.
00:07:51Hello?
00:07:55Hold on.
00:07:56What's wrong?
00:07:58All right.
00:07:58Yeah.
00:07:59Just stay put.
00:08:00I'm coming.
00:08:04I'm sorry.
00:08:07But don't ever mention divorce again.
00:08:10Get some sleep.
00:08:12Desmond, we're already divorced.
00:08:14You just don't know it yet.
00:08:22Okay.
00:08:23You sure you want me to sell all of these?
00:08:25Yeah, I don't want them anymore.
00:08:27Then you can just donate the money to charity or something.
00:08:31Sell this one too, please.
00:08:32This has to be worth at least a million.
00:08:37Is Desmond really okay with the divorce?
00:08:40He doesn't know about it.
00:08:43I tricked him into signing the divorce papers.
00:08:45You what?
00:08:46Aren't you afraid of what Desmond will do when he finds out he already signed?
00:08:50No, no.
00:08:50With the money I'm getting from his mom, I can disappear to anywhere in the world.
00:08:54I could hire added security protection if I really wanted to.
00:08:58I'll be fine and I'm not staying in this marriage any longer.
00:09:01Doesn't matter what he thinks.
00:09:03I'm going to go ahead and I'm going to take this to my new apartment.
00:09:06Let me know you sell the jewelry.
00:09:07I will.
00:09:11Go ahead and sell this one too.
00:09:14I have no use for it anymore.
00:09:24What is she doing?
00:09:38She just got in her car with a box of clothes.
00:09:40Follow her.
00:09:41Don't let her out of your sight.
00:09:50What the hell?
00:09:54Miss, I do apologize.
00:10:08I do hope that we can settle this matter privately.
00:10:11My boss is in a hurry.
00:10:13Privately?
00:10:14Is he trying to get out of this somehow?
00:10:16Absolutely not.
00:10:18No, I think I'd rather just wait for the cops to arrive.
00:10:22Are you sure?
00:10:22Sir, I promise we will cover all the damages.
00:10:26I'd rather us do this the proper way with all the right documentation.
00:10:40Sir, please, it's better to remain in the car with the rain.
00:10:45I have an important meeting to get to.
00:10:46I can't sit here and wait all day.
00:10:47Killian's already on his way to give me a ride.
00:10:49What did the girls say?
00:10:50She'd prefer to go through the police, sir.
00:10:52Why?
00:10:53Did you tell her that we paid extra?
00:10:55Why the hell should we have said that with Paul?
00:10:58I want you to go over there and tell...
00:10:59Sir?
00:11:10Sir?
00:11:13Go give it to her.
00:11:15Give her the contact info as well.
00:11:16About the park.
00:11:20Miss!
00:11:23My boss sent this for you.
00:11:29It's okay.
00:11:30I have clothes in my car.
00:11:31You could further damage your head by moving around too much.
00:11:35Please, take the jacket.
00:11:38I'll return it.
00:11:39I promise.
00:11:39Who is that?
00:11:51Beatrice was in an accident.
00:11:52Excuse me, sir.
00:12:01This is a private room.
00:12:02It's okay.
00:12:02Use my...
00:12:03Boss.
00:12:05Use my boss.
00:12:07Is her injury serious?
00:12:08She'll be okay.
00:12:09Just make sure she doesn't get this bandage wet.
00:12:11Let me make you some soup.
00:12:26Thanks.
00:12:31Whose jacket is that?
00:12:36No one's.
00:12:37Then why were you wearing it?
00:12:38Okay, fine.
00:12:41Desmond, it's her friends.
00:12:43Am I not allowed to have friends?
00:12:55I'm sorry.
00:12:56Hey.
00:12:57It just hurts.
00:12:59Hearing you say things like that.
00:13:01I'm your husband.
00:13:02I care, that's all.
00:13:04Yeah, you say you care about me.
00:13:06But you're having an affair with Madeline.
00:13:09What happened to your phone earlier?
00:13:11Couldn't reach you.
00:13:12I probably shouldn't let him know I blocked his number.
00:13:15Yeah, the battery died.
00:13:18That's all.
00:13:20You know, if my call would have went through,
00:13:22I would have known that you were in an accident.
00:13:24I don't like being left in the dark, Beatrice.
00:13:28Especially when it comes to your safety.
00:13:30I noticed all your clothes and jewelry were missing.
00:13:34Closet, vanity, fully empty.
00:13:37Since when did he start noticing things like that?
00:13:39I took the clothes to the cleaner and jewelry to get detailed.
00:13:43All of them?
00:13:44Mm-hmm.
00:13:44At the same time?
00:13:46I want to resign.
00:13:49Resign?
00:13:50Yeah, yeah.
00:13:51I think it'd be good for me.
00:13:52You know, have some time off, relax, maybe travel a little bit.
00:13:56You know, that's actually not a bad idea.
00:14:00It is time that we started having children anyway.
00:14:04He thinks I'd want to have his children?
00:14:07Once upon a time, that's all I ever wanted.
00:14:11Not anymore.
00:14:17I want you to put a baby in me.
00:14:24Not right now.
00:14:26Work's busy.
00:14:27Maybe next year.
00:14:49You get some sleep.
00:14:50Yeah, long day.
00:14:52And tomorrow, we can finalize your resignation.
00:14:56Please send me your boss's suit measurements.
00:15:18Oh, wow.
00:15:28Beatrice, this is really nice.
00:15:31Thanks.
00:15:32Yeah, it just feels so good having a place of my own.
00:15:35Now I can leave for good.
00:15:38Would you mind, please, unpacking this box while I grab the rest of the stuff from my office?
00:15:42Yes, please, please?
00:15:43Of course.
00:15:45You're best.
00:15:53May I ask what you require his measurements for?
00:15:56Why can't he just send the measurements and not ask so many questions?
00:16:00What for?
00:16:01Do you want me to be soon?
00:16:26yeah thanks
00:16:29are you really stalking me to get my suit measurements
00:16:36no no no i uh i actually i just moved in upstairs
00:16:40sorry if it's weird that i asked um i just i need your measurements
00:16:45to replace your suit jacket
00:16:49sure she must be into me
00:16:52if you want my measurements so bad i'll just have my assistant send them over
00:16:57so it's official you're really leaving us yeah i am but it'll be okay just make sure you lean on
00:17:19your new team lead for support that's not gonna happen she's
00:17:22completely unqualified and a total bitch
00:17:27who is the new team lead
00:17:34theatress you left us
00:17:40there now we can finally have some taste in the office
00:17:48i know all about girls like you
00:17:52you sleep your way to the top and then think you'll snag a billionaire husband
00:17:56but you're just a play thing no respect when they'll ever marry someone like you
00:18:02when you think you're so much better because you have my sloppy seconds
00:18:05keep it think of it as parting gift
00:18:14she is definitely going to drown us in work now but seeing her run off like that definitely made it worth it
00:18:27you guys don't be afraid to quit if she makes your life hell
00:18:29there are plenty of other jobs out there trust me
00:18:32oh did you find one yet i heard uh damien crowley is looking for a new assistant if you're interested
00:18:38he just flew in from europe so he's been over there for 10 years
00:18:41neil she's a project director she can't just drop down to be someone's secretary
00:18:46and not to mention damien crowley is like mortal enemies with desmond
00:18:50why do you think our boss has been so stressed lately it's because damien crowley is in town
00:18:55yeah being a secretary would be a major demotion but damien is desmond's biggest competitor
00:19:01it'd be good to make my own business connections instead of only dealing with desmond's
00:19:06you know what it's actually a great idea
00:19:08i'll think about it
00:19:11uh mr belmont's in a meeting

00:26:36wow you are such a prick
00:26:40beatrice is one of the most competent people i know
00:26:45and she'd be taking a major demotion to be your secretary
00:26:48don't write her off just because she wore workout clothes to a golf meeting
00:26:52you know she was in a suit when we got here and i told her to change because this was supposed to be
00:26:57a fun outing and you ruined it
00:26:59i'll see you at home but i'm starting to think who you're hanging out with is rubbing off on you
00:27:04great thanks a lot daniel we're gonna hear about this all night violet begged me to join you so you can meet beatrice
00:27:13she just left the summit group yesterday why no clue she's the best project director they had close eight out of the 12 of the company's multi-million dollar deals
00:27:23well why doesn't she just continue working with them between us beatrice and the summit ceo used to date
00:27:29the word on the street is he's going to marry madeline fairfax now
00:27:34i don't think beatrice wants to work for a company that associates with him at all
00:27:38so she used to date desmond balbon
00:27:40interesting
00:27:44desmond
00:27:48i want you to explain exactly what happened with my sister at your company
00:27:52she got injured and you didn't do anything about it
00:27:54she's okay
00:27:56what exactly did you want me to do
00:27:58you need to make beatrice apologize to me
00:28:01desmond
00:28:05come on my nose it still hurts from yesterday
00:28:07and not only that but that
00:28:08publicly humiliated my sister how do you expect her to run a team
00:28:12this looks bad on you too
00:28:15you swear that actually happened
00:28:18you didn't do anything to provoke her
00:28:21no no of course i didn't no
00:28:23she insulted me in front of everybody out of nowhere it was completely uncalled for
00:28:28you know how much i hate liars madeline
00:28:31why are you still on her side okay well fine if she doesn't want to return and formally apologize to me
00:28:36then you need to fire her team agreed we can't have madeline's employees think they could just walk all over her her team is going nowhere
00:28:44beatrice was one of our best project directors here and that team was a part of it
00:28:53if madeline can't handle the job then she can just quit and i'll hire someone that can
00:28:57do you need to do anything to do with her
00:28:59okay i see what this is now
00:29:00listen if you haven't completely moved on from her
00:29:04i'm gonna have no choice but to cancel this partnership mr belmont

00:38:36and then she just disappeared
00:38:38you know jesmyn i don't think it's wise
00:38:40to cancel an agreement that's protecting your assets
00:38:44your opinion means nothing to me mother
00:38:47this is the belmont family name at stake
00:38:49of course my opinion matters
00:38:52desmond
00:38:54please
00:38:56just
00:38:57think
00:38:58about marrying madeline fairfax
00:39:00i'm not marrying madeline
00:39:02she's just entertainment
00:39:04and her family still has some use to me
00:39:09what if beatrice finds out about your affair
00:39:12then i'll leave madeline
00:39:14i'm not gonna end my marriage
00:39:16with someone who just offers me simple pleasures
00:39:17stop trying to get beatrice
00:39:20to divorce me
00:39:22or else i'll tell everyone
00:39:24that beatrice is my wife
00:39:27that would ruin our relationship with the fairfax family
00:39:32fairfax family means no importance to me
00:39:35if it means losing beatrice
00:39:37there's so many other companies out there that i can partner with
00:39:39but there's only one beatrice
00:39:41do you understand
00:39:42do you understand
00:39:44this is the last time i'm telling you

00:39:49beatrice is not a fit wife
00:39:52and you will not stay married to her

00:39:56i will tell colin
00:39:58i will tell everyone on this staff
00:40:00that you no longer reside on the belmont estates
00:40:03i'll put you in a fucking retirement home

00:42:33i've already contacted hotel security to get the surveillance footage
00:42:36i'm not gonna let him get away
00:42:38that's funny

00:43:15how would you like us to proceed

00:43:38those guys should have bruised her up pretty badly
00:43:41they barely said anything

00:57:05madam belmont must have paid her to break up with desmond
00:57:13she's shameless
00:57:15asking for more money after she's already been paid
00:57:17she's trying to extort the belmont family
