00:00:00Miss Ri, your ovaries aren't doing their best lately.
00:00:07This could be the start of ovarian failure.
00:00:10Ovarian failure? I mean, I'm so young.
00:00:13Is this gonna mess with me having kids?
00:00:15I've always wanted to be a mom.
00:00:17If you want a child, it is medically advisable to do so within the next six months.
00:00:22Through everything, here we stand.
00:00:26Babe, me at X Hotels, 3.02 at 7 p.m.
00:00:30Got a surprise for you.
00:00:35Ethan loves me so much, maybe...
00:00:37Maybe it's not such a bad idea to have a baby sooner rather than later.

00:18:05Ow.
00:18:07Sorry, didn't see you.
00:18:10It's hard to notice the help.
00:18:15Ah.
00:18:16My brother's mysterious fiancée.
00:18:20Mrs. Crawford.
00:18:22Catherine, we're family now, supposedly.
00:18:26Tell me, dear, how did you meet Adrienne?
00:18:41Through mutual friends.
00:18:42Really?
00:18:44Mutual friends.
00:18:48Pray tell, what mutual friend would Adrienne possibly have in your social circle?
00:18:55Unless, of course, it was a business arrangement.
00:18:58I'm sorry.
00:19:00A girl in your position surely would have negotiated.
00:19:11The only negotiations was whether I'd take his last name or keep mine.
00:19:14Well, then, next weekend is our family dinner.
00:19:20You, as Adrienne's fiancée, would be expected to attend.
00:19:27I'd be honored.
00:19:28Wonderful.
00:19:29I'm sure you can find something suitable to wear.
00:19:37Helen, make sure to take good care of your mistress.
00:19:41Excuse me, Miss Reed.
00:19:54Need to clean.
00:19:56Oh, of course.
00:19:57Let me just get my stuff out of your way.
00:19:58Is this what you're wearing to the family dinner?
00:20:06How creative.
00:20:09It must be harder than your family watching you change a rich man.
00:20:13As a maid, maybe you should just focus on your own job.
00:20:15My business is none of your concern.
00:20:22Oh, how a plant told me.
00:20:26Stop it.
00:20:27You could just marry a rich man.
00:20:32You're just trash trying to climb a social ladder.
00:20:36Hey, Mr. Crawford.
00:20:40She was trying to attack me.
00:20:44I'm just trying to help.
00:20:46Get out.
00:20:46I'm sorry.
00:20:47I can't explain.
00:20:48One more word and you're fired.
00:20:50Get out.
00:20:54What happened?
00:20:56Nothing.
00:20:57I just...
00:20:58I need some space.
00:21:02I'll stay in the guest room tonight.
00:21:04Lali, you don't have to.
00:21:05Please.
00:21:07I need some time alone.
00:21:09No, you stay.
00:21:11I'll sleep on the song.
00:21:12I miss her so much, Daddy.
00:21:23Don't worry about me, okay?
00:21:25As long as we can get you better,
00:21:28I won't let the words get to me.
00:21:29I promise.
00:21:38Lali, what happened?
00:21:39What should I do?
00:21:43What should I do?
00:21:54How's the happy couple today?
00:21:55I'm sorry.
00:22:01No worries.
00:22:14It's just a small pinch.
00:22:16That is not small.
00:22:23It's okay.
00:22:24Over here, understand.
00:22:32It's the perfect timing for the injection.
00:22:34Mr Crawford, it is your time for the sperm collection.
00:22:46Okay, how do we do this?
00:22:48What equipment do we need?
00:22:49No need.
00:22:50Just head to the collection room and use your hand.
00:22:53Okay.
00:23:04And pretend she's not right out that door.
00:23:21Mr Crawford, are you all right in there?
00:23:27I'm fine.
00:23:28I just need some assistance.
00:23:31Oh, do you need help?
00:23:34No, wait.
00:23:35I didn't mean...
00:23:36Are you sure?
00:23:37I can come in there.
00:23:46Okay.
00:23:47Come in.
00:23:59So...
00:24:01Want to help?
00:24:02Yeah, what can I...
00:24:05Oh, my God.
00:24:06You thought...
00:24:08No, no, I didn't.
00:24:09Um, I didn't...
00:24:11I...
00:24:12I'm...
00:24:13I'm...
00:24:14I'm gonna go.
00:24:16I'm gonna go.
00:24:17I'm gonna go so far away.
00:24:20Helpful.
00:24:31Are you okay?
00:24:32Dr. Anderson said the hormone shots might hurt a little, but...
00:24:33You're in pain.
00:24:34It's just some discomfort.
00:24:35It'll pass.
00:24:36I'll be okay.
00:24:37Here.
00:24:38This should help.
00:24:41Um...
00:24:42Um, well...
00:24:43The hormone shots were part of...
00:24:44Um, well...
00:24:45The hormone shots were part of...
00:24:46Um, well...
00:24:47The hormone shots were part of the agreement.
00:24:49So, any resulting discomfort is technically a work-related issue.
00:24:51And as your employer, I have a duty of care.
00:24:52Um, well...
00:24:53The hormone shots were part of the agreement.
00:24:54So, any resulting discomfort is technically a work-related issue.
00:24:55And as your employer, I have a duty of care.
00:24:56And as your employer, I have a duty of care.
00:25:03Oh, my...
00:25:04You're right.
00:25:05Sorry.
00:25:06I have a bed.
00:25:08Yeah.
00:25:10bew Professional
00:25:15a work-related issue, and as your employer have a duty of care.
00:25:45Purely professional care.
00:26:15Purely professional care.
00:26:25Adrian, wait. About this weekend.
00:26:27Sorry, emergency in Atlanta. The merger's falling apart.
00:26:30But...
00:26:31Thompson, have the jet ready in 20.
00:26:33Your family invited me to dinner. Now, you know what?
00:26:37I can do it myself.
00:26:39I don't suppose that we could expect punctuality from someone who has never owned a watch in her entire life.
00:26:51I introduced him to the Thompson Arons. Senator's daughter.
00:26:56I don't know why he picked this gold digger from God knows where.
00:27:01Ethan, what did you say that she does? A fashion designer?
00:27:06Worse. Seamstress.
00:27:09She probably thinks having the proper family do her name will raise her to the top and then she can have her own fashion show.
00:27:16She's poor. Fine.
00:27:19But no sense of time, either.
00:27:21I need to have a serious talk with Adrian.
00:27:24Probably just stinging for a wardrobe. Can't find something to wear.
00:27:28A fashion designer scrounging around for an outfit. How ironic.
00:27:32Maybe her designs are just too embarrassing to be seen in public.
00:27:36Okay.
00:27:38But seriously.
00:27:39I mean, I do pity her, right?
00:27:42Her worthless clothing and our beautiful home.
00:27:45I mean, it must be incredibly humiliating.
00:27:51Go get her now.
00:27:52Go get her now.
00:28:14Apologies for the delay.
00:28:15My, my, my.
00:28:25Trying hard to get the part.
00:28:28James!
00:28:30Make sure none of the silver is missing after dinner.
00:28:35At least we know that Adrian's credit card is being put to good use.
00:28:42Although money can buy you designer clothing, it can't buy you a good upbringing.
00:28:49Actually, I made the dress myself.
00:28:53The little seamstress that you are. How quaint.
00:28:57At least we know who will be darning. Adrian sucks.
00:29:02You know, I wasn't brought up into wealth, but I was raised to something far more valuable.
00:29:08Integrity.
00:29:10Integrity.
00:29:12Integrity.
00:29:13Is that what you call seducing your way into our family?
00:29:22How much?
00:29:24How much would it take for you to disappear? Name your price.
00:29:28Mr. Crawford, I believe that's the difference between you and me.
00:29:31I don't think everything can leap off me.
00:29:37Excuse me.
00:29:48Stay calm.
00:29:50You got this.
00:29:52I'll dress up for me, baby.
00:29:53I need to get back to dinner.
00:29:54What's the rush?
00:29:55We're all family here.
00:29:56Almost family.
00:29:57Don't touch me.
00:29:58You used to like it when I touched you.
00:29:59Remember how shy you were?
00:30:00Always saying no.
00:30:01Let go of me, you creep.
00:30:02Eh?
00:30:03Careful now.
00:30:04On Scream and everyone at dinner will find out what kind of a girl you really are.
00:30:06And her love history.
00:30:07I love you.
00:30:08I love you.
00:30:09I love you.
00:30:10I love you.
00:30:11I love you.
00:30:12I love you.
00:30:13I love you.
00:30:14I love you.
00:30:15I love you.
00:30:16I love you.
00:30:17I love you.
00:30:18I love you.
00:30:19I love you.
00:30:20You really are.
00:30:21And her love history.
00:30:22Oh god.
00:30:35So sad.
00:30:36Is everything okay?
00:30:37You look a bit flustered.
00:30:40I saw a time but we started watching this year forever.
00:30:43Stop it.
00:30:46Stop it.
00:30:47Something wrong with us, Reed?
00:30:57Enough!
00:30:59No manners, no class.
00:31:01I don't know how you managed to seduce my son.
00:31:04Someone like you never deserve a place in this family.
00:31:08I'm the one that told her to stay here and be with me.
00:31:16I'm the one that told her to stay here and be with me.
00:31:18Adrian.
00:31:20If anyone's unworthy in this relationship, it's me.
00:31:24You wanna know how we met?
00:31:27She crashed into my life.
00:31:28Quite literally.
00:31:30She's brave.
00:31:31It's just a love letter in her hand.
00:31:33She confessed to me right there at the hospital.
00:31:36She's not into money.
00:31:38Even if someone dropped a million dollars at her feet, she wouldn't have been blank.
00:31:42For carrying my child.
00:31:43I want my own baby, Mr. Crawford.
00:31:48Not somebody else's.
00:31:50And she's tough.
00:31:51Even after everything you did to humiliate her, she didn't walk away in anger.
00:31:55And she's still here.
00:31:57I thought you were supposed to be in Atlanta. How did you...
00:32:01Sir, two things.
00:32:03First, your mother's invited Mrs. Crawford to the family dinner.

00:56:44Dad, I have something I want to tell you.
00:56:49I'm having a baby.
00:56:51You're going to be a grandpa.
00:56:53Is that one of Ethan's boys?
00:56:55No, not him.
00:56:57Then who?
00:56:58It doesn't matter.
00:57:00Dad, look, what really matters is that this is my baby.
00:57:05And I am going to love them just like you love me.
00:57:09Oh, sweetheart, I'm so sorry.
00:57:12I'm sorry I couldn't take care of you.
00:57:14If I was healthier, if I could work.
00:57:17Dad, it's okay.
00:57:19The hospital bills.
00:57:20Where are you going to get the money from?
00:57:23How are you going to pay for them?
00:57:26Please tell me you didn't sell yourself to someone.
00:57:29No, Dad, it isn't like that.
00:57:31Did someone take advantage of you?
00:57:33My little girl, pregnant and alone.
00:57:37She's not alone.
00:57:42Adrian.
00:57:44Mr. Reid.
00:57:45I'm Adrian Crawford.
00:57:47I'm the father of the child.
00:57:50Not just the father.
00:57:52I'm the man who's going to spend the rest of his life making sure that your daughter and our child have everything they deserve.
00:57:59Pretty words from a rich man.
00:58:02Not words.
00:58:04Facts.
00:58:05I've already arranged for you to be transferred to a private medical facility.
00:58:09Full treatment plan.
00:58:10The very best specialists.
00:58:12Adrian.
00:58:13And I promise you this.
00:58:15Every morning, your daughter will wake up knowing that she's cherished.
00:58:20Every decision I make, every step I take, will be to ensure her happiness.
00:58:28You really mean that, don't you?
00:58:30Yes, I do.
00:58:33Well, maybe I don't have to worry so much anymore.
00:58:38Thank you for saying all that. I know you were just trying to make my dad feel better.
00:58:49I wasn't just trying to do anything.
00:58:53Everything I said was true.
00:58:55I thought you were just worried about me breaking the contract.
00:58:59Finally, you have to understand something.
00:59:02I have been falling for you ever since you crashed into my office with that ridiculous donor questionnaire.
00:59:09Yes, we had a contract.
00:59:12But I realized you've become everything to me.
00:59:16Not my surrogate.
00:59:18Not my pretend fiance.
00:59:21If you're willing, would you like to forget the contract and become...
00:59:28...my real wife?
00:59:40Babe...
00:59:41Did she come and see you?
00:59:44Did she hurt you?
00:59:45No.
00:59:46Just...
00:59:48Was it she or Joelle? I saw you taking care of her.
00:59:51What?
00:59:52I have nothing to do with her anymore.
00:59:54Yes, my father asked her over, but I kicked her out.
00:59:57I haven't had feelings for her since we broke up.
01:00:01Really?
01:00:10I'm not letting you go.
01:00:12Not ever.
01:00:14I think we're past trying to hide who we are.
01:00:22Surrogacy?
01:00:23Contract marriage?
01:00:26No, this is perfect.
01:00:28What was so urgent?
01:00:32I know something about your little ex-girlfriend that might interest you.
01:00:37If this is about Lila and my uncle...
01:00:40It's about how she really got pregnant.
01:00:42Your perfect uncle?
01:00:44He hired her.
01:00:45She's just a surrogate.
01:00:47The whole engagement is a lie.
01:00:50A contract?
01:00:51Oh, the board would love to hear about this.
01:00:57Next week's family meeting, we reveal everything.
01:01:02Until then, we need to find some evidence.
01:01:07And once he's ruined?
01:01:09I'll comfort him.
01:01:11Help him rebuild, of course.
01:01:13Show him who really belongs by his side.
01:01:16And Lila?
01:01:17Once the truce out, she'll be worthless to him.
01:01:20You can have your little toy back.
01:01:34Thankfully, Mr. Crawford gave me the key.
01:01:47Surrogate agreement.
01:01:53Surrogate agreement.
01:01:57Medical history.
01:01:59There must be some evidence somewhere.
01:02:05Adrian's always so organized.
01:02:08Where are the important documents?
01:02:17Adrian?
01:02:24Is that you?
01:02:31Shit!
01:02:37Vivian!
01:02:40Oh, Adrian!
01:02:42What are you doing here?
01:02:43I was just looking for you.
01:02:44You know, Adrian, if it's an heir you want, you can make one right now.
01:02:52Poor Lila doesn't have to know.
01:02:55She's already asleep.
01:02:57It'll be our little...
01:02:59secret.
01:03:02Here.
01:03:03In the hallway.
01:03:05Wherever you want, darling.
01:03:07What if someone sees us?
01:03:09Scared?
01:03:11I know someone.
01:03:13Private.
01:03:19Can't risk being interrupted, can we?
01:03:25Adrian?
01:03:27Adrian!
01:03:29Enjoy the storage closet!
01:03:31Adrian!
01:03:32How'd it go?
01:03:46Just drive.
01:03:48Guessed as much.
01:03:50Don't worry.
01:03:51I've got a new plan now.
01:03:53Dr. Anderson will tell us if there's a surrogate involved.
01:04:00Everything looks perfect.
01:04:01The baby is developing perfectly.
01:04:03Really?
01:04:04Really!
01:04:05You have officially entered the stable station.
01:04:07As long as you are gentle, intimacy is perfectly safe.
01:04:13Oh.
01:04:15Listen to your buddies, and then...
01:04:17Thanks, Doc.
01:04:18Thanks.
01:04:19Mr. Anderson.
01:04:34Let's talk about the scene Sinclair's...
01:04:37arrangement.
01:04:39Was it a contract surrogacy?
01:04:41Mr. Herringham, I can't discuss the patient information.
01:04:45I hear the hospital is opening up a new wing.
01:04:47It'd be a shame if your name mysteriously disappeared from the best.
01:04:55Weren't it?
01:04:59Shall we talk about that arrangement now?
01:05:12Oh, my God!
01:05:17What?
01:05:18What?
01:05:23Surrogacy!
01:05:25Surrogacy!
01:05:28Five generations.
01:05:30Four for dignity.
01:05:32All trashed by a tabloid scandal.
01:05:36A surrogate!
01:05:38You used a surrogate to gain the inheritance?
01:05:40If that's what you wanted, Adrian, why didn't you just say it?
01:05:44Why drag the family's name through the mud?
01:05:47This isn't true.
01:05:49It's nothing but a malicious rumor.
01:05:52Don't believe everything you see in the news.
01:05:55Lila and I...
01:05:57We're in love.
01:05:58We're in love.
01:06:03Your lives stop here, Uncle.
01:06:08Grandfather, the files.
01:06:10Proving their contract.
01:06:12Lila isn't his fiancee.
01:06:14She's just a surrogate who got hired to bear an heir.
01:06:17Medical files from Crawford Fertility Center.
01:06:23They show Miss Reed undergoing IVF treatment.
01:06:28And was generously compensated.
01:06:31A surrogate! How vulgar!
01:06:33You dare deceive me with this filth?
01:06:38Dragging the Crawford name through the mud?
01:06:41I'll deal with it.
01:06:43All right.
01:06:45How? God knows what else you've schemed.
01:06:48Actually, I might have a solution.
01:06:52Replace Adrian's fiancee with me.
01:06:55Let Lila take the fall in the media.
01:06:58She's just a desperate gold digger who wants to bear an heir.
01:07:01Just so she can become queen.
01:07:05I'll shut your mouth.
01:07:10Fine!
01:07:12Marry Vivian now!
01:07:15Or you give up your shares and get up!
01:07:18Adrian, I always get the man you want.
01:07:24Well, if he does this, he could still get inheritance.
01:07:28No rush. Let's get them into trouble.
01:07:32He's fought too hard to lose everything now.
01:07:36He'll do it.
01:07:38I'll give it all up.
01:07:40The company.
01:07:42My inheritance.
01:07:45Everything.
01:07:47But not Lila.
01:07:49Not my wife.
01:07:51The only woman I've ever loved.
01:07:53We're loved.
01:07:54And we're getting married.
01:07:56Officially.
01:07:58Publicly.
01:07:59estable.
01:08:00We're empty.
01:08:02Fоть it away, that's true.
01:08:03It's lovely.
01:08:07Time.
01:08:09You want to give up everything for her?
01:08:11Give up your inheritance.
01:08:12Everything goes to Ethan.
01:08:15Adrian!
01:08:19You're giving up your inheritance just for her?
01:08:21Just for her? Are you insane?
01:08:24I would never choose anything over my wife. Not ever.
01:08:28And I would never choose you.
01:08:30You'll regret this.
01:08:35Go on. Sign this. Walk away from your legacy.
01:08:41So you've had this planned all along?
01:08:44Hey, hey, wait.
01:08:52I'm not worth giving up your future.
01:08:56You are my future.
01:08:59You're my everything.
01:09:02You and our child.
01:09:14Let's go.
01:09:26Adrian.
01:09:28Hey, what's wrong?
01:09:30Don't tell me you only love me for my CEO status and my money.
01:09:34No, I can make more money.
01:09:36You know, I'm kind of excited to be a sugar mommy.
01:09:40I've always wanted a sugar mommy.
01:09:42Wait, yeah, I was going to grab somebody from the car.
01:09:44Okay.
01:09:56What are you doing here?
01:09:58Why?
01:09:59What does she have that I don't?
01:10:01Why do you always choose her?
01:10:03It's simple.
01:10:05I love her.
01:10:07Not you.
01:10:08Adrian, please.
01:10:09I was wrong.
01:10:11It's real and it's awesome.
01:10:13Everything Jeans.
01:10:22Hey.
01:10:42Hi.
01:10:44Beautiful.
01:10:46Yeah.
01:10:50Yeah.
01:10:52It is.
01:11:00Milo, were you...
01:11:02Yes.
01:11:04Of course.
01:11:14When did you get this?
01:11:16Back when I realized I'd give up everything for you.
01:11:36How's it going?
01:11:38Good.
01:11:40Just finished my last sketch.
01:11:42Your sugar mommy just landed another big deal.
01:11:50Yeah?
01:11:52Adrian, come back to the Crawford family.
01:11:54Come back to your position and your inheritance.
01:11:58Mr. Harrington.
01:12:04What do you mean you're canceling the contract?
01:12:06We've been partners for ten years.
01:12:12Grandfather, no.
01:12:14Please don't call Adrian.
01:12:18So you want me to come back?
01:12:20I have to ask my wife.
01:12:24What do you think Mrs. Crawford?
01:12:30First order of business today.
01:12:34What is this?
01:12:35Starting without me.
01:12:36Perfect timing.
01:12:38I was just announcing your termination.
01:12:40The company crisis last month turns out wasn't an accident.
01:12:44Ethan deliberately sabotaged every deal.
01:12:48There's no proof.
01:12:50You misappropriated partnership funds
01:12:52to indulge in your own personal affairs.
01:12:54Bad investments, shady deals, and reckless spending
01:12:58have led us to financial setbacks and operational setbacks.
01:13:02And it's all documented right here.
01:13:10The lawsuit's already been filed.
01:13:12What?
01:13:14You actually did this?
01:13:16No, Grandfather.
01:13:17He's lying.
01:13:18It's all a lie.
01:13:21Dad.
01:13:22Either you let me handle this my way.
01:13:24Or I can still walk.
01:13:26Adrien...
01:13:29Adrian...
01:13:30Mr. Crawford.
01:13:34The vote for new director.
01:13:39The vote for New Director.
01:13:43Competence...
01:13:44Is everything.
01:13:46I'm getting old.
01:13:48And from now on...
01:13:50Adrian...
01:13:52will handle everything.
01:13:53No.
01:13:54Don't listen to him. Don't listen to him. Please! You're making a mistake. Where are you going?
01:14:02My company, you hear that? My fucking company, come back!
01:14:10The baby's asleep. I guess that means I get you all to myself.
01:14:17Don't distract me. I'm almost finished. I'm denying my wedding dress.
01:14:22It's incredible. I might hire you to design my tux.
01:14:29You know, I think I'm going to have to check my schedule.
01:14:33Oh, it's like that. I still can't believe we're getting married.
01:14:40Ever since you crashed into me at the hospital, I haven't been able to get you out of my head.
01:14:44And soon I'll be able to love you openly and officially for the rest of my life.
01:14:50Uh, practicing your vows?
01:14:53Yeah.
01:14:57We practice the kiss as well.
01:15:00If you have to.
01:15:01Your father said, no fiancé by Christmas, no inheritance.
01:15:19Do you really want to give all that up?
01:15:21Everybody, this is my new girlfriend.
01:15:30You didn't tell me your parents were this rich.
01:15:34I brought you all a basket from the Miller farm.
01:15:37A bottom.
01:15:37Yeah.
01:15:43You didn't tell me my parents were this rich.
01:15:43Yeah.
01:15:43I think it was right.
01:15:45You don't know.
01:15:45Yeah.
01:15:50You don't know.
01:15:50Oh, yeah.
01:15:51Okay.
