00:00:00Billionaire from Montgomery Enterprises, Aston Montgomery, who is known for his
00:00:05corporate ruthlessness. Stella Evans, you didn't even graduate from college?
00:00:14Mr. Montgomery, it's your love child. You said there'd be no more scandals. No,
00:00:20father, there are no scandals. Me, my fiancee, and the mother of my child, until my
00:00:25father signs the company over to me, then 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.
00:00:36The Montgomerys don't associate with peasants.
00:00:39Touch my wife again, I will end you.
00:00:41No, my baby!
00:00:42Maybe Michael Aston won't 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.
00:00:54I love you, Stella Evans.
00:00:56It'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?
00:01:22You have to be prepared.
00:01:25I don't have mom.
00:01:29I'm not gonna let you die, mom.
00:01:32You're gonna beat this cancer.
00:01:41Danny, what are you doing?
00:01:44What does it look like I'm doing?
00:01:46Your rent's late.
00:01:47You're digging it.
00:01:52It's two days late.
00:01:54And you said it wouldn't be an issue.
00:01:57I changed my mind.
00:01:58So, unless you want to pay up with that tight little lot of yours.
00:02:03You're out by tomorrow morning.
00:02:07You've got to be kidding me.
00:02:08I have never been late before.
00:02:10And you know my mom's medical bills are insane.
00:02:13Oh.
00:02:15Dump me.
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.
00:02:24And the signing bonus will be more than enough to cover it.
00:02:27Just give me 24 hours.
00:02:32And you better get that job.
00:02:35Tick-tock cupcake.
00:02:50Billionaire 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
00:03:06Playboy ways, but his corporate ruthlessness.
00:03:10Stella Evans?
00:03:14Come with me.
00:03:25So, you don't have any corporate experience and you didn't even graduate from college?
00:03:31Well, something came up at home and I couldn't.
00:03:35I'm not running a charity, Ms. Evans.
00:03:37I'm sorry, but I can't hire you.
00:03:38Please.
00:03:40I really need the money.
00:03:44So do 400 other applicants.
00:03:46What makes you so special?
00:03:49I may not be... experienced, but I'm a quick learner.
00:03:54And I really need the money.
00:03:55And I need someone who already knows what they're doing.
00:03:58This interview is over.
00:04:03Hey, you can't just walk away from me, you entitled prick!
00:04:09What did you say to me?
00:04:10And you heard me just because you think you're better than everyone else-
00:04:20Shut up.
00:04:34What is that doing in my office?
00:04:40Can you see that?
00:04:48What is that doing in my office?
00:04:50Montgomery is your love child.
00:05:09I'm a father?
00:05:13What?
00:05:14What?
00:05:14What?
00:05:14What?
00:05:15What do I do?
00:05:16What do I do?
00:05:17You said you needed a job.
00:05:19Help me.
00:05:20What?
00:05:23What?
00:05:27Here you go.
00:05:29Shh.
00:05:30It's okay.
00:05:39Perhaps....
00:05:40I misjudged you.
00:05:47So the rumors are true.
00:05:49I'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.
00:06:04No, father, there are no scandals.
00:06:09Father, this is Stella.
00:06:11My fiancé and the mother of my child.
00:06:14What the fuck?
00:06:23Excuse 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?
00:06:40Please go with it.
00:06:43To 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 gonna 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!
00:06:56And one more thing.
00:06:58Touch my fiancé again, I'll break more than just your camera.
00:07:01Sir, sir!
00:07:02Can we answer our question, please?
00:07:04Sir, sir, sir!
00:07:05You cannot ignore us, Mr. Montgomery.
00:07:07Come on now, Mr. Montgomery.
00:07:08Sir, what do you have to say?
00:07:22This place is beautiful.
00:07:27So what do we do now?
00:07:29Simple.
00:07:30We do what fiancés do.
00:07:44We do what fiancés do.
00:07:46Look at me.
00:08:02What the hell was that?
00:08:04This is part of the deal.
00:08:06Alright, we have to sell it.
00:08:07I have someone looking into where Emma came from.
00:08:10This should all be sorted out soon.
00:08:11What will be sorted, brother?
00:08:14Clive?
00:08:16Welcome home.
00:08:18This fiancé 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.
00:08:28Since it all happened so fast.
00:08:33Stella...
00:08:34Evans, is it?
00:08:37And what trash barrel did you crawl out of?
00:08:41The trash barrel I crawled out of is none of your business.
00:08:46Au contraire, mon cherie.
00:08:48It's most definitely my business.
00:08:52The Montgomerys don't associate with peasants.
00:08:55Bad for business.
00:08:56Leaper, Omo!
00:08:57What?
00:08:59Care to find out?
00:09:04Care to find out?
00:09:07So, my playboy brother does have feelings.
00:09:11And 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 you came
00:09:22from.
00:09:27She's cute.
00:09:32Looks just like you, brother.
00:09:49Get away from our baby and get out of our house!
00:09:51Fine.
00:09:53But there's something weird going on here and I'll find out what it is.
00:09:56The CEO position will be mine.
00:09:59And the first thing I'll do is fire you, brother.
00:10:15Is 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.
00:10:26I have a few things I have to do.
00:10:29Your room is upstairs.
00:10:34What have I gotten myself into?
00:10:37At least I'll be able to take care of my mom when this is all over.
00:10:40If 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.
00:10:48I...
00:10:51I got a job.
00:10:52Don't worry about me.
00:10:56I gotta go.
00:10:58I'll see you soon.
00:11:01Then...
00:11:03Mom!
00:11:04Oh!
00:11:11Holy...
00:11:12Hot.
00:11:18See something you like?
00:11:22Hi.
00:11:26Miss Evans?
00:11:28Everything okay?
00:11:32Emma needs us.
00:11:35Right behind you.
00:11:43What's wrong with her?
00:11:46Hey, hey, hey.
00:11:50Shh, there you go. Good job, baby girl.
00:11:54How did you do that?
00:11:56She just wanted to be held. You should hold her.
00:11:59Oh, I don't know about that.
00:12:01She's your daughter. She probably wants you more than anyone else.
00:12:07Trust me, I wish my dad was around.
00:12:10I've never held a baby before and she's so little I don't want to hurt her.
00:12:15Aston, she's yours.
00:12:19You can't be scared of her forever.
00:12:27Um, hey, Emma, um...
00:12:32I'm your daddy.
00:12:33I'm your daddy.
00:12:39See?
00:12:41That wasn't so bad.
00:12:45Okay.
00:12:48Good night, Emma.
00:13:03It's the private investigator.
00:13:05The sooner I find out who Emma's mom is, the better.
00:13:25Did the private chef make all this?
00:13:28No.
00:13:29I did.
00:13:33A playboy billionaire who cooks.
00:13:36Maybe I misjudged you.
00:13:38Not such a prick after all, huh?
00:13:41Maybe life with Aston won't be so bad after all.
00:13:47Uh, but back to business.
00:13:50Um, my family is coming over for dinner tonight.
00:13:56They want to meet you.
00:13:57Your family?
00:13:59Aston, I can't-
00:14:00Oh, you can.
00:14:02And you will.
00:14:11This is part of the deal.
00:14:13If you want the money, everyone has to believe that you're my fiancé and the mother of my child, starting
00:14:17with my family.
00:14:24Mom?
00:14:26Mom?
00:14:27Can you hear me?
00:14:29My mom's in trouble.
00:14:37Danny, what are you doing?
00:14:39I paid you!
00:14:41Well, I changed my mind when I heard you were shacking up with some billionaire.
00:14:48That's one of the most exciting that I was going to say.
00:15:03That's all right.
00:15:06That's all right.
00:15:07But, that's what I'm talking about.
00:15:09I'm not enjoying it.
00:15:09It's all right.
00:15:10My name is my baby.
00:15:10And, you know you're a little bit too.
00:15:12Knolly, I'm about to live my baby.
00:15:12I know I won't go.
00:15:16It's a big deal.
00:15:17I'm not crossing them this way, when I'm staying high for you.
00:15:19She'll pay you what she owes you and not a cent more.
00:15:27This is your billionaire boyfriend?
00:15:31Actually, he's my fiancé.
00:15:34And he's rich and powerful.
00:15:38He has a bigger dick than you.
00:15:45You really think you're good enough for him?
00:15:48I only fucked you because I felt sorry for you and your dying mind.
00:15:58Stella is more than good enough for me.
00:16:00If you touch her again, I will kill you.
00:16:05Aston, stop. He's not worth it.
00:16:11Stella?
00:16:12Mom!
00:16:14Mom!
00:16:19He took my medicine.
00:16:23I have it right here, Mrs. Evans.
00:16:27That man would never bother you again.
00:16:30I will make sure of it.
00:16:34And I'm sending someone for your things.
00:16:36You're coming to live with us.
00:16:46Thank you for helping me with my mom.
00:16:50That wasn't part of the deal.
00:16:57Not everything I do has to be about our deal, Stella.
00:17:08Still, thank you.
00:17:11And I'm sorry for calling you a prick earlier.
00:17:13Why?
00:17:15I can be a prick.
00:17:17The one I really want to be.
00:17:21Speaking of our deal.
00:17:23Be ready by 7pm for the family dinner.
00:17:27But...
00:17:28I have nothing to wear.
00:17:31I'll take care of that.
00:17:32You can make a picture.
00:17:35I'll take care of that.
00:17:36I'll take care of that.
00:17:39I want to be a picture.
00:17:40Bye.
00:17:40Bye.
00:17:45Bye, bye.
00:17:46What are you doing?
00:17:50Bye.
00:17:52Bye.
00:17:53Bye.
00:17:57Bye.
00:18:09I hoped you'd pick the red.
00:18:11You look beautiful.
00:18:15I'm still debating what shoes to wear, though.
00:18:17Allow me.
00:18:49There's one thing missing.
00:18:56There's one thing missing.
00:19:03A ring.
00:19:06May I?
00:19:22Perfect fit.
00:19:28Aston, 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.
00:19:54I want to show off my new fiancée.
00:20:16You ready to sell this?
00:20:22Rest in a word.
00:20:27It'll take a moment.
00:20:31Go.
00:20:34I'll be fine.
00:20:49Stella!
00:20:50How nice of you to join us.
00:20:53This is the woman who trapped our Aston with a bastard child.
00:20:59Funny.
00:21:00It'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...
00:21:09trying her best.
00:21:13Oh, I didn't know Aston had a sister.
00:21:18Sister?
00:21:19Sister?
00:21:19No.
00:21:20I'm Clarissa.
00:21:24Aston's ex-fiancée.
00:21:33Oh, God.
00:21:34Is she pregnant with Aston's baby?
00:21:39No wonder Aston didn't introduce you earlier.
00:21:42You're nothing like me.
00:21:44And thank God for that.
00:21:46Stella would never cheat on me and get knocked up by my brother.
00:21:48Father, at least we didn't hide our child from the entire family.
00:21:53That's right.
00:21:54Where even is my step-grandbaby?
00:21:58You 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.
00:22:14Excuse 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?
00:22:29You can't even control your worthless, Beyoncé.
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 fiancé and I won't stand for that.
00:22:56Dinner is canceled.
00:22:58Get out of my house!
00:23:02Now.
00:23:20I'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.
00:23:29Of course I did.
00:23:33I'm your fiancé.
00:23:39I never should have watched you do this.
00:23:43It's not fair to you.
00:23:46I'll pay you what I owe you.
00:23:48Just...
00:23:51Take 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 your bones.
00:24:01I'm sorry, Stella, but...
00:24:04This contract with me is over.
00:24:09What contract?
00:24:17What contract?
00:24:18What contract?
00:24:23I told you what would happen if I caught you lying.
00:24:26We're not lying.
00:24:28Prove it.
00:24:30We were just talking about a prenup.
00:24:33Aston wants me to sign one.
00:24:35To 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.
00:25:00You're not what I expected.
00:25:03What did you expect?
00:25:06I 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 and we'll both get everything we want.
00:26:12I have some good news.
00:26:14You're getting married.
00:26:16You're getting married.
00:26:16You're getting married.
00:26:17You're getting married.
00:26:24Congratulations.
00:26:26By this time tomorrow, you'll officially be husband and wife.
00:26:30You're getting married.
00:26:33Unless there's some sort of problem with getting married tomorrow.
00:26:36It's just we're not in a rush.
00:26:40But 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.
00:27:08But 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.
00:27:30It takes some time to think about it.
00:27:34But I need an answer tonight.
00:27:47Mom, how 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.
00:28:13He made me feel loved.
00:28:15Valued.
00:28:18Whole.
00:28:34But it didn't even work out.
00:28:36It ended before I was born.
00:28:40Just because something doesn't last doesn't mean you can't enjoy it while you have it.
00:28:52Plus, your father gave me you.
00:28:56You, which 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 would break my heart when it's all over.
00:29:19She 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.
00:29:34So, if you want to walk away now, I won't blame you.
00:29:42So, do you have an answer for me?
00:29:49So, do you have an answer for me?
00:29:52I do.
00:29:56Aston, look at me.
00:30:00I never thought I would get married as part of a contract, but I said I'd help you.
00:30:05And I'll keep my word.
00:30:10It means a lot to me.
00:30:16I 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.
00:30:41Doesn't matter what you think.
00:30:43I know how Aston feels.
00:30:44Are 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.
00:31:10Is 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,
00:31:23boy's fiancé.
00:31:25Oh, my God.
00:31:27It'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 Miss Evans near this necklace.
00:31:42Especially you.
00:32:02You look like the future, Mrs. Montgomery.
00:32:07I do.
00:32:09If only this were real.
00:32:26I 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.
00:32:42So, if you know what's best,
00:32:44you won't go through with this wedding.
00:32:49Aston isn't the man you think he is.
00:32:52Whatever 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.
00:33:11Thank 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.
00:33:58You look beautiful.
00:34:02Hey, 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,
00:34:12we are gathered here today
00:34:13to join this man and woman in holy matter.
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?
00:34:31I'm sorry, I can't marry you.
00:34:39I'm sorry, I can't marry you.
00:34:50I'm sorry, I can't marry you.
00:34:56What the hell was that about?
00:34:59Is this 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.
00:35:07Is this necklace even real?
00:35:10God.
00:35:36I 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,
00:35:52that I should only give it to someone I care about.
00:35:55Someone I saw a future with.
00:36:15I'm falling for you, Stella Evans.
00:36:18I have been since the moment we met.
00:36:25I don't know how I feel right now.
00:36:28Today's just been a lot,
00:36:29and my mind is all over the place.
00:36:33You're right.
00:36:35This wedding's way too much too soon.
00:36:38Stay here,
00:36:39and I'll tell everybody
00:36:41the wedding is off.
00:36:51Excellent.
00:36:52A runaway bride
00:36:53is an even bigger scandal
00:36:54than a love child.
00:37:03This must be a record, brother.
00:37:06Two fiancés down.
00:37:07At least this one made it to the altar.
00:37:11Hi, everyone.
00:37:12Sorry to keep you waiting,
00:37:13but there won't be...
00:37:16many more interruptions.
00:37:19Who's ready for a wedding?
00:37:44Okay, let's try this again.
00:37:48Dearly beloved,
00:37:49we are gathered here today

00:37:53in holy matrimony.
00:37:55Marriage is powerful
00:37:56in ways you'd never expect.
00:37:58It's something that makes you feel lucky
00:38:00to be alive

00:38:05at every moment of every day
00:38:07and of learning how to love
00:38:09even the darkest parts of another person.
00:38:12A true partner stays with you
00:38:14through thick and thin
00:38:15in sickness and in health
00:38:17for better or worse,
00:38:18for richer or poorer,

00:50:41Aston
00:50:43The board would like to see you
00:50:44To go over some financials
00:50:46Of course
00:51:01Knock knock
00:51:04Clarissa if you're here to bully me
00:51:06I am not in the mood
00:51:07That's not why I'm here
00:51:09I'm here as a courtesy
00:51:11You deserve the truth
00:51:12And clearly Aston isn't going to give it to you
00:51:18This baby isn't Clive's
00:51:22It's Aston's
00:51:30What the hell are you talking about?
00:51:32That baby cannot be Aston's
00:51:34Well we clearly couldn't tell you until the ruse was over
00:51:36Until he became CEO
00:51:39But now that it's all over
00:51:40And Aston got what he wanted
00:51:42We don't need you anymore
00:51:46He doesn't need you anymore
00:51:54What the hell are you talking about?
00:51:57Open Aston's desk door and find out
00:52:00Oh my god
00:52:12He signed the divorce papers
00:52:15Clarissa's telling the truth
00:52:25You can go now
00:52:37Sweet Emma
00:52:41I'm going to miss you so much
00:52:44What's going on?
00:52:46I'm saying goodbye to Emma
00:52:47And then I'm out of here
00:52:49Just like you want me to be
00:52:56Stella 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
00:53:06I 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
00:53:12Congratulations on the baby
00:53:13I hope you and Clarissa are really happy together
00:53:17Wait
00:53:24Wait
00:53:29Please
00:53:30Let me explain
00:53:32What could you possibly have to say to me?
00:53:38There is nothing and will never be anything between me and Clarissa ever again
00:53:42I'm not even the father of her child
00:53:44And these
00:53:45I have these drawn up the day I met you before
00:53:46I knew this could be anything more than a contract
00:53:50And this
00:53:50Just
00:53:50Just
00:53:51Just take it
00:53:53Please just take everything out
00:53:55All I want
00:53:55Is you
00:53:57And Emma
00:53:57I could take or leave anything out
00:54:00You don't mean that
00:54:01Of course I mean it
00:54:02I have met
00:54:03Every word
00:54:05I have said to you
00:54:07I'm in Stella
00:54:08I'm all in
00:54:10Are you?
00:54:16I'm in Stella
00:54:16I'm all in
00:54:19Are you?
00:54:22Yeah
00:54:22I'm all in
00:54:29Yes
00:54:38The paternity results are in
00:54:42I'm back in this father
00:54:56I'm not Emma's father
00:55:05I can't believe I'm not her father
00:55:11If she doesn't belong to me
00:55:12Then
00:55:14Why 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
00:55:24But Emma's lucky to have you as a dad
00:55:28Biological or not
00:55:31We need to find the truth
00:55:39Dahlia's behind it all
00:55:45I'm not telling you anything
00:55:47This isn't a game, Dahlia
00:55:49She's a child
00:55:50Where did Emma come from?
00:55:52Step down as CEO, Imelda
00:55:59Step down as CEO
00:56:00And I'll tell you
00:56:01Are you kidding me?
00:56:02This is way bigger than a CEO position
00:56:05This is a child's life you're messing with
00:56:08Shut up
00:56:09You little tramp
00:56:11If you hadn't come along pretending to be her mother
00:56:13The scandal would have proceeded as planned
00:56:17And that little child would be back at the orphanage
00:56:20Right where she belonged
00:56:23Orphanage?
00:56:24That's right
00:56:25The baby's trash
00:56:27Just like you
00:56:39My hair
00:56:41You
00:56:46You better get control of your little wife
00:56:50Or 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
00:57:22It's okay
00:57:23It's okay
00:57:24It's okay
00:57:24We're gonna figure this out
00:57:29Oh my god
00:57:30Did she just call me mama?
00:57:31She's yours if you want her to be
00:57:34I don't want to be
00:57:35I don't want to be but
00:57:37Until we figure out what's going on
00:57:38I can't get attached
00:57:43Mr. Montgomery
00:57:48Mr. Montgomery
00:57:49Mr. Montgomery
00:57:50What can you say about the recent allegations
00:57:52That Ms. Evans is not the mother of your son's child?
00:57:55Thank you
00:57:56Mr. Montgomery
00:57:57You can't ignore us
00:57:58Speak to Montgomery
00:58:04What's going on?
00:58:06The press is having a field day out there
00:58:08I told you to
00:58:09No more scandals
00:58:11What are you talking about?
00:58:14I went out on a limb for you, son
00:58:15I trusted you
00:58:17And this has been a lie the whole time?
00:58:21You say she's the mother of your child?
00:58:23Prove it
00:58:24Or I'll expect you to step down as CEO tomorrow morning
00:58:30How do we prove it?
00:58:33Simple
00:58:35Take a maternity test
00:58:42How do we prove it?

01:05:28Mom, who's Andrew Beaumont?
01:05:35How do you know about him?
01:05:39He paid for your treatment.
01:05:42Who is he?
01:05:47Mom?
01:05:49Mom?
01:05:50Mom?
01:05:51Someone call the doctor!
01:05:53Mom!
01:06:10I spoke with the doctors.
01:06:15She's been put in a medically induced coma until the swelling in her brain subsides.
01:06:22It's all my fault if I wouldn't push her.
01:06:24No, Estella.
01:06:25It is not your fault.
01:06:28I know.
01:06:29I know.
01:06:30And I know she's sick.
01:06:30I 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.
01:06:37It'll all be fine.
01:06:40No matter how much you keep blaming yourself, I'll say it again.
01:06:46It's not your fault.
01:06:48when you're in the morning, I'm tired.
01:06:53You're right.
01:06:54It won't be fine.
01:06:55You never gave me anything.
01:06:57Do you have any issues with the doctor?
01:07:04Yes, I'll say it again.
01:07:06I'd do something.
01:07:11I would love to see him all over time for some time.
01:07:12Do you want some help?
01:07:12You're never going to do anything?
01:07:17Well, I don't want him to go there.
01:07:19Time to learn the truth.
01:07:28In breaking news, CEO Aston Montgomery has called a last-minute press conference
01:07:32to address the future of Montgomery Enterprises.
01:07:35Reporters have it on good authority that he is prepared to step down as CEO,
01:07:40handing the company over to his half-brother, Clive Montgomery, in the wake of a paternity scandal.
01:08:02Oh, my God. I can save him.
01:08:11Ma'am, ma'am, how do you answer the allegation?
01:08:13How long was the divorce happening?
01:08:15What 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,
01:08:24right?
01:08:24Which means you've been lying. To everyone.
01:08:29Wait! We're not lying. I took the test. I have the results right here.
01:08:38I have the results right here.
01:08:40Over here, ma'am. Ma'am. Come on.
01:08:42Come on, don't be tired of it now.
01:08:44Hey! You know how much I'm willing to pay for those?
01:08:47Not enough. Trust me.
01:08:50Over here, ma'am. Ma'am. Come on, don't be tired of it now. Come on, ma'am.
01:09:10I won't, but I am Emma's mother.
01:09:12I believe you.
01:09:14Don't even think about it, Dahlia.
01:09:24This is so sweet.
01:09:27If only it mattered.
01:09:31You're too late, Stella.
01:09:33Aston already stepped down.
01:09:44Yes.
01:09:46To protect you. To protect Emma.
01:09:48Aston, we were fine. All you've ever wanted to do is be seen.
01:09:51To be a great husband to you and a great father to Emma.
01:09:55That's all that matters to me. We can figure out the rest.
01:09:59It looks like you're working for me now, brother.
01:10:03I own the company now.
01:10:05Which means I own you.
01:10:08Not quite.
01:10:12I just received an offer from Montgomery Enterprises.
01:10:16One that I couldn't refuse.
01:10:19Meet our buyer.
01:10:22Andrew Beaumont.
01:10:29Stella's father.
01:10:38You look just like your mother.
01:10:43This is ridiculous.
01:10:46You're trying to tell me that Stella's related to a billionaire?
01:10:51She's nothing but a piece of trash.
01:10:53Don't speak about my daughter that way.
01:10:56Your daughter?
01:10:58How dare you call me that?
01:11:00You left mom and I.
01:11:02No.
01:11:04Stella, I never left you.
01:11:06Your mother.
01:11:08She kicked me out.
01:11:10Because I wasn't the husband.
01:11:12Or the father that I needed to be.
01:11:14But...
01:11:14I'm here now.
01:11:17To make it up to you.
01:11:19This company belongs to me.
01:11:20Not this low-class peasant bitch.
01:11:24No! My baby!
01:11:27Damn! That felt good.
01:11:30Get out of my office!
01:11:31Or I'll have you arrested for assault!
01:11:34Actually...
01:11:35The office belongs to my daughter now.
01:11:39As does the company.
01:11:42What?
01:11:47I'm the CEO of Montgomery Enterprises?
01:11:56I'm the CEO of Montgomery Enterprises?
01:12:01I'm the CEO of Montgomery Enterprises?
01:12:04Oh yes.
01:12:05Which means you get to decide how we get rid of Clive.
01:12:10You'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.
01:12:20I...
01:12:22Mother!
01:12:24You'll let her talk to me that way?!
01:12:26Dahlia's words have no power.
01:12:29Not anymore.
01:12:32Ah!
01:12:37This...
01:12:38Can't be happening.
01:12:41I planned everything perfectly.
01:12:45that little orphan would have made the perfect scandal
01:12:48if not for Stella interfering.
01:12:51And you, you were supposed to convince that little bitch
01:12:56that you were pregnant with Aston's baby.
01:12:58But no, you failed and fucked us all.
01:13:03I didn't, I did.
01:13:06Hey, hey, hey.
01:13:07Clive, Clarissa, get the hell out of my office.
01:13:10You too, Dahlia.
01:13:11Get out.
01:13:12You can't kick me out.
01:13:14I'm Robert's wife.
01:13:17Not anymore.
01:13:19I want a divorce.
01:13:22What?
01:13:24This is not...
01:13:24I always thought she looked just like you when she was sleeping.
01:13:44I never thought I'd see her again.
01:13:48I never wanted to give her up, but...
01:13:51when mom got sick and the medical bills, I just...
01:13:57I knew we couldn't afford it.
01:14:01It's all in the past.
01:14:05But I want to talk about her future.
01:14:11How would you feel about one more?
01:14:18I could be persuaded.
01:14:21And let me persuade you.
01:14:48What's your first order of business as CEO?
01:14:52Well, since I've already violated the employee handbook.
01:14:57Twice.
01:15:01I was thinking we could talk business.
01:15:06no 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.
01:15:21Let's violate the handbook one more time.
01:15:23I was hoping you could talk about my mind for the sunrise, yeah.
01:15:35And when it's finally time, you're just more of the same.
01:15:40Gotta wrestle the day, nah.
01:15:44I said it a thousand times.
01:15:46I said it a thousand times.
01:16:15I'm pregnant.
01:16:27Hey.
01:16:30The 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, I hope you can forgive me, too.
01:17:03You saved me and my family.
01:17:06Of course I'll forgive you.
01:17:11You know, speaking of family,
01:17:15I'd really like to meet my grandbaby.
01:17:21Which one?
01:17:28Oh, Stella.
01:17:35Aston, your assistant called and said it was an emergency.
01:17:40Stella Evans?
01:17:42Yes.
01:17:48Come with me.
01:17:57The last time I heard those words, I got roped into a fake marriage.
01:18:03Well, this time, I'm hoping you'll say yes to a real one.
01:18:19Aston, 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.
01:18:28Stella 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.
01:18:37Children.
01:18:40I'm pregnant.
01:18:45I want forever with you.
01:18:47No deals.
01:18:49No schemes.
01:18:51Just us.
01:18:53Will you marry me?
01:18:58Yes.
01:18:59Yes, I'll marry you.
01:19:11It's beautiful.
01:19:15Just like you.
01:19:21There we go.
01:19:33What do you say, Mrs. Montgomery?
01:19:35Should we build this popsicle stuff?
01:19:37Let's do it.
01:19:52I love you.
01:19:53How much do you love me?
01:19:55Enough to last forever.
01:20:09I love you.
01:20:10I love you.
01:20:11I love you.
01:20:14I love you.
01:20:15I love you.
01:20:15I love you.
01:20:15I love you.
01:20:16You
