00:00:04Miss Ri, your ovaries aren't doing their best lately.
00:00:07This could be the start of ovarian failure.
00:00:11Ovarian failure? I mean, I'm so young.
00:00:13Is this going to mess with me having kids?
00:00:15I've always wanted to be a mom.
00:00:17If you want a child, it's medically advisable to do so within the next six months.
00:00:27Babe, me at X Hotels, 3.02 at 7 p.m.
00:00:31Got a surprise for you.
00:00:35Ethan loves me so much, maybe...
00:00:38Maybe it's not such a bad idea to have a baby sooner rather than later.
00:00:44No, I'm going to tell him now.
00:00:46Yeah.
00:00:47Okay.
00:01:05Early ovarian failure at 25.
00:01:08If someone sees this, die of embarrassment.
00:01:13Sorry.
00:01:14Are you okay?
00:01:16Yeah.
00:01:16I'm fine.
00:01:34Oh, my God.
00:01:36Lila.
00:01:38You said you'd be back at 7.
00:01:40Chidi, is this the big surprise you had planned for me?
00:01:46Oh, you're such a buzzkill.
00:01:48You always said you wanted to try something new?
00:01:50Come join us.
00:01:55You always said you wanted to try something new?
00:01:57Come join us.
00:01:58Three years.
00:01:59You know, I wasted three years on you.
00:02:02God, I'm such an idiot.
00:02:04You know, I was planning on having a baby.
00:02:06A baby?
00:02:09Sweetheart.
00:02:19You really think I'd marry you for your cheap love over legs like these?
00:02:25You know what?
00:02:27We're done.
00:02:29Six months?
00:02:30What, am I just supposed to find some random guy to get me pregnant?
00:02:44I don't need a man to have my dreams come true.
00:02:47One appointment.
00:02:48One sperm donor.
00:02:51And I can have my own baby.
00:02:59Six months to produce an heir, or I lose control of Crawford Industries to my neck.
00:03:05Everything I've built over the last decade, gone.
00:03:09Sir, the surrogate candidates have all been vetted thoroughly.
00:03:12I mean, Ivy League graduates.
00:03:16Inspecable health histories.
00:03:18I don't need resumes.
00:03:20I need someone who won't turn this into a media circus.
00:03:22Find me someone who knows their place.
00:03:24Someone who will quietly disappear after they give birth.
00:03:32You.
00:03:36Miss, are you here for the interview?
00:03:38Oh, um.
00:03:40Right, well, let's get started.
00:03:43Um.
00:03:45Education background?
00:03:46Excuse me?
00:03:47And I'm going to need a complete medical history.
00:03:49Family genetic conditions, mostly.
00:03:51Um.
00:03:52Do you exercise regularly?
00:03:53You look...
00:03:57Acceptable.
00:03:59Do you have any idea who I am?
00:04:01I'm just being thorough.
00:04:03This is about making a healthy baby, after all.
00:04:08Why are men almost so fools themselves?
00:04:10Um.
00:04:12Um, sir, I don't care if you're Brad Pitt.
00:04:14I need to know about your reproductive history.
00:04:18Sexual partners in the last six months?
00:04:20Mr. Crawford, I can show her out.
00:04:22It's okay.
00:04:23Thompson, you can leave us.
00:04:25Okay.
00:04:26What are you doing?
00:04:33I'm making sure this is thorough.
00:04:40Harvard Business School.
00:04:41MBA.
00:04:42Top of my class.
00:04:43No family history of any genetic disorders.
00:04:46I work out five times a week.
00:04:48Crossfit.
00:04:49Yoga.
00:04:50Rock climbing.
00:04:51Cycling.
00:04:52As for...
00:04:54Intimate matters, I can assure you that performance has never been a problem.
00:04:59Now that Thompson's gone, are you comfortable sharing yours?
00:05:01Oh, um, of course, uh, I'm perfectly healthy too.
00:05:06Uh, no kinetic conditions, I get checkups regularly.
00:05:09I haven't started taking prenatal vitamins.
00:05:13Good.
00:05:14I have to say, you're a perfect match.
00:05:17How about in regards to compensation, have you got a figure in mind?
00:05:21Well, I was thinking, $800?
00:05:25$800?
00:05:28Well, I was expecting a figure much higher than that.
00:05:33I know it's not much, but, you know, considering the quality, and I could help out in other ways.
00:05:40I could do your paperwork.
00:05:42Thompson, bring in the contracts.
00:05:54Are you serious?
00:05:56All this?
00:05:57Take your time reviewing, but the key point is, after birth, the child stays with me.
00:06:01No contact.
00:06:02Are you, are you kidding me?
00:06:04You want to keep my baby?
00:06:07Are you kidding me?
00:06:09You want to keep my baby?
00:06:11My baby!
00:06:12Is this a kind of sick joke?
00:06:14That's standard procedure for a surrogacy agreement.
00:06:17Surrogacy what?
00:06:18Surrogacy.
00:06:19The position that you're interviewing for.
00:06:21Interviewing?
00:06:21No, I came here to buy sperm.
00:06:25You came to what?
00:06:30Oh my God.
00:06:32I?
00:06:36I thought you were a donor.
00:06:37That is why I came here to ask you all those questions about your qualifications.
00:06:43And I thought you were applying to be my surrogate.
00:06:45I am so sorry about all the confusion.
00:06:50I...
00:06:52I'm gonna go.
00:06:56A million dollars.
00:06:58For caring my child.
00:07:05I want my own baby, Mr. Crawford.
00:07:09Not somebody else's.
00:07:14Next.
00:07:22Miss Reed.
00:07:23Your father.
00:07:24You need to come now.
00:07:37Excuse me.
00:07:38Okay, dad.
00:07:38It's gonna be okay.
00:07:40I'm not afraid to die.
00:07:44I'm just afraid to leave you alone.
00:07:49Dad?
00:07:50Dad?
00:07:51Doctor!
00:07:52Help!
00:07:53Please!
00:08:02A doctor, my father.
00:08:04How is he?
00:08:04The cancer has spread aggressively, without immediate treatment.
00:08:08Then treat him.
00:08:09Now!
00:08:10The full course of treatment will cost approximately one million dollars.
00:08:15Aristocratic etiquette training.
00:08:17Influencer.
00:08:18Bachelor in economics.
00:08:20Yeah, right.
00:08:21She's underage.
00:08:22Is this the last batch?
00:08:23Yes, sir.
00:08:24The brunette asked about ring sizes.
00:08:26Blonde.
00:08:27All she asked about.
00:08:28The biddies.
00:08:29And the redhead.
00:08:30Yeah, all of them just wanted.
00:08:32Crawford name.
00:08:34But none of them are suitable.
00:08:39This one was refreshing.
00:08:43She was real.
00:08:45No schemes.
00:08:47Well, Mr. Crawford, she wasn't here for servicing.
00:08:50Sometimes the best candidates aren't looking for the job.
00:08:53Oh, my God.
00:08:54A million dollars?
00:08:55What is that?
00:08:56Maybe I could get a loan?
00:09:01Or...
00:09:02A million dollars.
00:09:04For carrying my child.
00:09:18Hello?
00:09:19Mila Reed.
00:09:20This is Adrienne Crawford.
00:09:27I saw her thinking.
00:09:32About the other day.
00:09:34I think I may have been...
00:09:36A little hasty.
00:09:37You're reconsidering?
00:09:39Don't look so smug.
00:09:40I just...
00:09:44I have my reasons.
00:09:46As do I.
00:09:48I'd like to propose a modification to the original terms.
00:09:55What kind of modification?
00:09:57Joint custody.
00:10:00As well as carrying the child you'd be its mother.
00:10:05Why would you do that?
00:10:07You're direct.
00:10:09Honest.
00:10:09No hidden agendas.
00:10:11All these I want in my child's mother.
00:10:16So...
00:10:18I'd really be a part of the baby's life?
00:10:20Yes.
00:10:21But just to be clear,
00:10:23we'll be parents.
00:10:24Nothing more.
00:10:26No emotional entanglements.
00:10:27No romantic expectations.
00:10:29Please don't flatter yourself.
00:10:34Father.
00:10:35The board is getting impatient.
00:10:38Have you considered
00:10:39the arrangement that I suggested?
00:10:41I have my own plans.
00:10:43Eight.
00:10:43If you're thinking of using some random surrogate
00:10:46to produce an heir,
00:10:48forget it.
00:10:50The Crawford name means something.
00:10:52I won't have it tainted by...
00:10:55I've already chosen my fiance.
00:10:57What?
00:10:59I will talk about it at dinner.
00:11:01I'm sorry.
00:11:03Did you just promote me from surrogate to fiance?
00:11:09Did you just promote me from surrogate to fiance?
00:11:14Didn't somebody just say,
00:11:16just parents, nothing more?
00:11:19The situation requires...
00:11:22Adaptation.
00:11:23Is that CEO speak for I changed my mind?
00:11:26You'll need a convincing story.
00:11:28You'll stay at my house during the pregnancy.
00:11:31Okay.
00:11:33Um...
00:11:33What about after?
00:11:35We'll arrange an amicable split.
00:11:37Continue co-parenting.
00:11:38I'll provide additional compensation for the complexity.
00:11:42No, the original match is fine.
00:11:44It's just...
00:11:47I do need it soon.
00:11:52So?
00:12:20Welcome to the family, Ms. Reid.
00:12:48My whole apartment could fit in this hallway.
00:12:56Well, well.
00:12:59Missed me so much, you had to track me down.
00:13:04Couldn't get over me, huh?
00:13:07Had to follow me here like a lost puppy dog.
00:13:11Followed you?
00:13:11No, I didn't...
00:13:13Wait, what are you doing here?
00:13:14What am I doing here?
00:13:15Sweetheart, you should know better.
00:13:17This is my family's home.
00:13:22You were so mad last time I saw you.
00:13:25Now I find you wandering around.
00:13:29I finally realized what you were missing, huh?
00:13:31Get your hands off me.
00:13:34Plain hard to get.
00:13:36Now that was cute before, but now...
00:13:40Come on, baby.
00:13:42This is what you really came in for.
00:13:46Right?
00:13:50Uncle!
00:13:52What are you doing?
00:13:54Your filthy hands off of my fiancée.
00:13:59Fiancée?
00:14:00Uncle?
00:14:05Fiancée?
00:14:06No way.
00:14:08She is just...
00:14:09Shut your mouth.
00:14:11Show some respect to your future aunt.
00:14:15Come on.
00:14:17This is crazy.
00:14:19You seriously don't know.
00:14:23I won't repeat myself.
00:14:25Stay away from my fiancée.
00:14:29One more word and you can kiss your trust fund goodbye.
00:14:46Are you all right?
00:14:47Yeah.
00:14:49Yeah, I'm fine.
00:14:52I just...
00:14:54You think it's your nephew?
00:14:55And he's your...
00:14:59Well...
00:15:00He may have been kind of...
00:15:02My boyfriend.
00:15:04Ex!
00:15:05Ex-boyfriend.
00:15:06Very ex.
00:15:07Extremely ex.
00:15:08I see.
00:15:11Thompson will bring your things up shortly.
00:15:13Thanks.
00:15:14Um...
00:15:16Where will I be staying?
00:15:17Here.
00:15:23What?
00:15:24Unless you prefer explaining to the staff
00:15:27why the happy couple are sleeping in separate rooms.
00:15:30Oh.
00:15:32Right.
00:15:33Fake engagement.
00:15:35Real roommates.
00:15:38This is the line.
00:15:40Don't cross it.
00:15:41Ever.
00:15:42I wasn't planning on it.
00:15:44Good.
00:15:44Didn't want you to.
00:15:46Good.
00:15:46I won't.
00:15:47Okay.
00:16:02See?
00:16:03My brilliant plan work.
00:16:08Wait.
00:16:08How did I...
00:16:11Sir, our new project in Singapore has been blooming.
00:16:14I mean, we have some meetings for you to attend,
00:16:18to discuss our future plans with the board members.
00:16:20Sir?
00:16:25Are you okay?
00:16:27Are you okay?
00:16:29I...
00:16:29Jesus Christ.
00:16:30Are you okay?
00:16:31Yeah.
00:16:32I'm fine.
00:16:32Continue.
00:16:33Okay.
00:16:34So, the meeting.
00:16:35Singapore.
00:16:44Layla.
00:16:45Layla.
00:16:45Stay on your side.
00:16:51Layla.
00:16:53Layla, wake up.
00:17:08Layla.
00:17:10Layla.
00:17:10Oh, my God.
00:17:48Okay, maintain control.
00:17:54Oh, that's cold.
00:17:57That's cold.
00:18:06Ow.
00:18:08Sorry, didn't see you.
00:18:11It's hard to notice the help.
00:18:16Ah, my brother's mysterious fiancée.
00:18:21Mrs. Crawford.
00:18:24Catherine, we're family now, supposedly.
00:18:36Tell me, dear, how did you meet Adrienne?
00:18:42Through mutual friends.
00:18:44Really?
00:18:45Mutual friends?
00:18:49Pray tell, what mutual friend would Adrienne possibly have in your social circle?
00:18:56Unless, of course, it was a business arrangement.
00:19:00I'm sorry?
00:19:05A girl in your position surely would have negotiated.
00:19:12The only negotiations was whether I'd take his last name or keep mine.
00:19:15Well, then, next weekend is our family dinner.
00:19:21You, as Adrienne's fiancée, would be expected to attend.
00:19:27I'd be honored.
00:19:29Wonderful.
00:19:30I'm sure you can find something suitable to wear.
00:19:38Helen, make sure to take good care of your mistress.
00:19:53Excuse me, Miss Reed.
00:19:55Need to clean.
00:19:57Oh, of course.
00:19:58Let me just get my stuff out of your way.
00:20:02Is this what you're wearing to the family dinner?
00:20:08How creative.
00:20:10Must be harder than your family watching you change a rich man.
00:20:14As a maid, maybe you should just focus on your own job.
00:20:16My business is none of your concern.
00:20:22Oh, how clumsy of me.
00:20:27Stop it!
00:20:29Oh, really?
00:20:30I can see you.
00:20:31You could just marry a rich man.
00:20:33You're just trash trying to climb a social ladder.
00:20:36Hey!
00:20:37Mr. Croppert!
00:20:41She was trying to attack me.
00:20:45I'm just trying to help.
00:20:47Get out.
00:20:47I'm sorry.
00:20:48I can't explain.
00:20:49One more word and you're fired.
00:20:51Get out.
00:20:55What happened?
00:20:57Nothing.
00:20:58I just...
00:21:00I need some space.
00:21:03I'll stay in the guest room tonight.
00:21:05Lali, you don't have to.
00:21:06Please.
00:21:08I need some time alone.
00:21:10No, you stay.
00:21:12I'll sleep on the song.
00:21:21I miss her so much, Daddy.
00:21:24Don't worry about me, okay?
00:21:26As long as we can get you better,
00:21:29I won't let the words get to me.
00:21:30I promise.
00:21:39Lali, what happened?
00:21:42What should I do?
00:21:55How's the happy couple today?
00:22:14No worries.
00:22:15It's just a small pinch.
00:22:17That is not small.
00:22:23It's okay.
00:22:25Come here.
00:22:26Here's that.
00:22:32It's the perfect timing for the injection.
00:22:44Mr. Crawford, it is your time for the sperm collection.
00:22:47Okay.
00:22:48How do we do this water prep that do we need?
00:22:50No need.
00:22:51Just head to the collection room and use your hand.
00:22:54Okay.
00:22:55Okay.
00:23:22Mr. Crawford, are you all right in there?
00:23:27I'm fine.
00:23:29I just need some assistance.
00:23:33Oh, do you need help?
00:23:35No, wait.
00:23:36I didn't mean...
00:23:37Are you sure?
00:23:38I can come in there.
00:23:46Okay.
00:23:47Come in.
00:23:49Come in.
00:24:00So...
00:24:01Want help?
00:24:02Yeah, what can I...
00:24:05Oh my God.
00:24:07You thought...
00:24:09No, no, I didn't.
00:24:10Um, I didn't.
00:24:12I, um...
00:24:13I'm...
00:24:14I'm...
00:24:15I'm...
00:24:16I'm gonna go.
00:24:17I'm gonna go.
00:24:18I'm gonna go so far away.
00:24:21Helpful.
00:24:35Are you okay?
00:24:37Dr. Anderson said the hormone chops might hurt a little, but...
00:24:41You're in pain.
00:24:42It's just some discomfort.
00:24:43It'll pass.
00:24:44I'll be okay.
00:24:50Here, this should help.
00:25:08Um, well, the hormone shots were part of the agreement.
00:25:13So, any resulting discomfort is technically a work-related issue.
00:25:17And as your employer, I have a duty of care.
00:25:20I have a duty of step.
00:25:25I have to tell on the doctor.
00:25:26Hi.
00:25:30Bye.
00:25:34Hi.
00:25:44Bye.
00:25:44Bye.
00:25:47Bye.
00:25:58Purely professional care.
00:26:15Purely professional care.
00:26:46Purely professional care.

00:31:02i do not know how you manage to seduce my son
00:31:04Someone like you will never deserve a place in this family.
00:31:09I'm the one that told her to stay here and be with me.
00:31:19Adrian.
00:31:20If anyone's unworthy in this relationship, it's me.
00:31:25You want to know how we met?
00:31:27She crashed into my life, quite literally.
00:31:30She's brave.
00:31:32It's just a love letter in her hand.
00:31:34She confessed to me right there at the hospital.
00:31:37She's not into money.
00:31:38Even if someone dropped a million dollars in her feet, she wouldn't even think.
00:31:43For caring my child.
00:31:45I want my own baby, Mr. Crawford.
00:31:49Not somebody else's.
00:31:51And she's tough.
00:31:52Even after everything you did to humiliate her, she didn't walk away in anger.
00:31:56And she's still here.
00:31:58I thought you were supposed to be in Atlanta. How did you...
00:32:02Sir.
00:32:03Two things.
00:32:04First, your mother's invited Mrs. Crawford to the family dinner.
00:32:07Second, the daddy's ready.
00:32:08We can go now.
00:32:13Cancel Atlanta.
00:32:14But, but, but, sir, the murder...
00:32:18Murder.
00:32:19Yes, sir.
00:32:33What a touching story, Uncle.
00:32:36Too bad it's either a complete lie or she's been playing us both.
00:32:40What are you talking about?
00:32:43We've been dating for three years.
00:32:46See?
00:32:55So, clearly she planned all this.
00:32:58Dated me first to get to know the family.
00:33:00And now, well, set her sights higher.
00:33:04Manipulative little...
00:33:05Face it, Uncle.
00:33:06You're just another step on her ladder to the top.
00:33:09Who knows how many men she's slept with already, right?
00:33:13You're right.
00:33:15We did date for three years, but you were cheating on me for two of them.
00:33:22What kind of pictures do you take with your secret girls?
00:33:25Nudes?
00:33:28What kind of pictures do you take with your secret girls?
00:33:31Nudes?
00:33:32Or do you record videos?
00:33:38That was for every lie you just told.
00:33:41You lie lie.
00:33:43How dare you, Adrian, hit my son!
00:33:52Where do you think you're going?
00:33:54We're not finished yet.
00:33:57Yes, we are.
00:34:02I'm sorry.
00:34:03I should have never left you alone with my family.
00:34:06It's okay.
00:34:09Thank you for coming back.
00:34:11And for all the kind lies you said about us.
00:34:15What happened to your hands?
00:34:17Oh, I was fixing the hemline and I can get kind of clumsy with the needles.
00:34:22Landa, sit down.
00:34:23Let me have a look at that.
00:34:25Okay.
00:34:29Sit down.
00:34:29Let me have a look at that.
00:34:31Okay.
00:34:34As my fiancée, you have access to the family accounts.
00:34:38I expect you to use them.
00:34:40I don't want to assume.
00:34:44You're Crawford now.
00:34:48I have a mic.
00:35:01Dr. Anderson.
00:35:03Mr. Crawford, the cycles are ready.
00:35:06We can proceed with the implementation tomorrow morning.
00:35:09I see.
00:35:11What is it?
00:35:11Is there something wrong with the embryos?
00:35:13That's what I've been thinking.
00:35:15Perhaps we could approach this in a more natural manner.
00:35:20That's how it's been.
00:35:27So, what do you think?
00:35:29Careful to let you in.
00:35:31Wow.
00:35:33Um, we should probably get some sleep.
00:35:38You know, the procedure.
00:35:40Oh.
00:35:41Good night, Mr. Crawford.
00:35:55You don't need to be so nervous.
00:35:57Mr. Crawford, try to relax.
00:35:59Can I open up this window?
00:36:01It might feel a bit cold.
00:36:05You cold?
00:36:09The white little spot.
00:36:12Yeah?
00:36:13What's that, baby?
00:36:15Really?
00:36:24I can't walk, you know.
00:36:26The doctor said to stay off your feet.
00:36:28Complete rest.
00:36:29You seem more nervous than I am.
00:36:31Hey, I'm just following medical protocol.
00:36:48Ethan, in order to claim your inheritance, you have to find a way to break them up.
00:36:53No matter what it takes.
00:36:57Maybe finding a chance to get her back into my arms is the best way.
00:37:31Adrian?
00:37:32Adrian?
00:37:32Not quite. You want my help?
00:37:36Let go of me.
00:37:37You used to like being in my arms.
00:37:39Remember all those late nights together?
00:37:42Did she?
00:37:49Remember all those late nights together?
00:37:53Did she?
00:38:01I was just getting some food.
00:38:04Get out.
00:38:08Adrian?
00:38:11Mother.
00:38:12Your stomach.
00:38:16If anything, anything happens to me, Fionki, or our unborn child, you will pay.
00:38:30You've been cheating all along.
00:38:32A few weeks with my uncle and you're carrying his child.
00:38:35You want a perfect little family?
00:38:37It is not going to happen.
00:38:49Thompson, cancel all my plans.
00:38:52Everything for the next month goes to Jack.
00:38:54Sir, what happened?
00:38:56You need my help?
00:38:57You can't help me on this. Just do as I say.
00:39:01You and Ethan, you've never gotten along, have you?
00:39:06Why?
00:39:08You seem to care a lot about him.
00:39:09No, it's not like that.
00:39:12Just get some rest.
00:39:14You had a rough day.
00:39:15Why did you choose to believe me about Ethan?
00:39:18Just...
00:39:20Just...
00:39:21I know you're not like that.
00:39:25Just get some rest.
00:39:26Make yourself at home.
00:39:27Anything you need, anything you want, I'll be your own.
00:39:31Whatever I want?
00:39:49What in the...
00:39:51What are you doing?
00:39:53This is junk food.
00:39:56Like, these have zero nutritional value.
00:39:58You can't take those.
00:40:00The baby wants chocolate.
00:40:03The baby wants chocolate.
00:40:05And chips.
00:40:06And chips.
00:40:07And ice cream.
00:40:08You wouldn't deny anyone.
00:40:11I've been doing research into optimal pregnancy nutrition, okay?
00:40:15Week by week, what you should be having every day.
00:40:17I've got a meal plan, breakfast, lunch.
00:40:19Uh, how about a compromise?
00:40:22One treat per day.
00:40:24Half a treat.
00:40:25Three quarters?
00:40:36Congratulations.
00:40:38The feet have been stable and developing perfectly.
00:40:41Really?
00:40:46Everything looks wonderful.
00:40:48Now that we are in a stable period, I would like to discuss some prenatal care.
00:40:55Okay.
00:40:56Let's lie down.
00:40:58Yeah.
00:40:59Yes.
00:40:59I...
00:40:59I got it.
00:41:01I promise.
00:41:01I can do it myself.
00:41:03Okay.
00:41:04And...
00:41:06Maybe you should call the doctor.
00:41:09Yeah.
00:41:09Yeah, Dr. Anderson.
00:41:12Yeah, we're ready.
00:41:13I'm putting you on speaker.
00:41:16First, remove the clothes.
00:41:22Now, exposing your legs.
00:41:27Apply the oil and gently massage her muscles with your palm.
00:41:43You know, I'm actually feeling kind of sick, so why don't we try this again tomorrow?
00:41:50And, um, I'm gonna go.
00:41:56I'm gonna go.
00:42:00Yeah, sorry, Dr. Anderson.
00:42:02We might have to try this again sometime.
00:42:04Yeah.
00:42:06Bye.
00:42:17The Charity Gala isn't a test.
00:42:20Your dad requests specifically that I attend.
00:42:23And you look perfect.
00:42:26Bye.
00:42:29Bye.
00:42:33Bye.
00:42:34Bye.
00:42:35Bye.
00:42:36Bye.
00:42:37Just be yourself.
00:42:38Bye.
00:42:51Adrian!
00:42:52It's been so long.
00:42:55You look exactly the same.
00:43:03You look exactly the same.
00:43:08And you must be the fiancé.
00:43:11I'm so pleased Adrian's finally found someone after all this time.
00:43:15Thank you, it's very sweet.
00:43:18I'm sorry, you are just someone who wants Adrian's happiness.
00:43:23More than anything.
00:43:27Oh my God.
00:43:29You two are finally back together.
00:43:31Everyone, look who is here.
00:43:34The golden couple.
00:43:36I heard Adrian Crawford was engaged.
00:43:40I knew it must be you, Vivian.
00:43:43The perfect match, just like a harvard.
00:43:47Where's your wedding?
00:43:55Actually, I'd like everyone to meet my fiancé, Lila Reed.
00:44:00We're expecting our first child.
00:44:03And yes, you're all invited to the wedding.
00:44:09She's pregnant?
00:44:12I'm so sorry.
00:44:14I just assumed.
00:44:16My congratulations to you both.
00:44:19I want to talk to you about this.
00:44:22Marriage, you're with me.
00:44:23I'm going to love you.
00:44:31They could be so judgmental, can't they?
00:44:34Don't take it personally, dear.
00:44:43You do look like the perfect couple.
00:44:52Drinking.
00:44:54Thought you were pregnant.
00:44:57That's none of your business.
00:44:59Do you even know the true Adrian?
00:45:02I tell you he's someone who cares a lot about love.
00:45:05What do you want?
00:45:08Look.
00:45:12Aren't they the perfect couple?
00:45:14You know, he'd do anything for her.
00:45:16Even save her from the pains of childbirth.
00:45:23They've been real happy ever since she got back.
00:45:29Get it now, don't you?
00:45:32He's just using you to have a baby so that she doesn't have to.
00:45:36You're so naive.
00:45:40So I'm just a tool to have a baby?
00:45:50I don't want my fiancée thinking there's anything between them.
00:45:55I don't care if it tears me apart.
00:45:59We couldn't let go.
00:46:07What do you think you're doing?
00:46:09You're pregnant.
00:46:11What are you doing?
00:46:12Why do you care?
00:46:14It's soda, okay?
00:46:16I know what I'm doing.
00:46:24What happened back there?
00:46:27Talk to me.
00:46:28Lila, I'm worried.
00:46:30What, so you'll talk to Ethan but not me?
00:46:33When you were having such a lovely chat with your girlfriend back there,
00:46:37did you even notice I was there?
00:46:43Lila, I'm worried about you.
00:46:46Worried about me?
00:46:47Or worried about your baby?
00:46:52Worried about me?
00:46:53Or worried about your baby?
00:46:55What's that supposed to mean, babe?
00:46:56You know, is that why you've been so nice to me?
00:46:58All of a sudden, giving me snacks and being protected.
00:47:01Did what, because of carrying your child?
00:47:03Lila, why are you acting so weird since yesterday?
00:47:05Did you date Vivian?
00:47:07Yes.
00:47:07And now she wants to get back together with you.
00:47:09Yes.
00:47:10So what, am I just some replacement for her?
00:47:12Is that why you were looking for a surrogate?
00:47:14Yes, I wanted a surrogate, but it wasn't for Vivian.
00:47:16It was...
00:47:17No, you know what, I get it.
00:47:18I get it.
00:47:19Follow the contract, have your baby.
00:47:25Thompson.
00:47:26Sir, sorry to bother you at night.
00:47:28The Singapore merger is falling apart.
00:47:29We need you hit immediately.
00:47:31I'm in the middle of something.
00:47:33I can't...
00:47:34The board is threatening to pull out.
00:47:38Okay, I'll be there.
00:47:42Lila, we need to talk about this as soon as I get back.
00:47:48Sure.
00:47:48Business first.
00:47:55Sir, there have been some complications.
00:47:58Explain.
00:47:58Explain.
00:47:59Well, during your absence, Ethan has been meeting with board members.
00:48:01It's a question that your sudden marriage plans may indicate that you're unstable to run the company.
00:48:05Sir.
00:48:05Several executives are questioning if somebody so personally invested could run the company.
00:48:21Mr. Crawford, we've been discussing my personal life.
00:48:25Your sudden absence is...
00:48:26Let me be very clear about something.
00:48:29This company had a 40% profit loss before I took over.
00:48:35Within three years, I tripled our market share.
00:48:38Every major merger, every successful acquisition, every stock surge, my strategies, my execution.
00:48:49So, yes, I'm getting married.
00:48:52And yes, I took some time off.
00:48:55But no, not a single person in this room has the right to question my commitment or my capability.
00:49:02Because without me, there wouldn't even be a company to an heir.
00:49:07So now, shall we discuss the merger?
00:49:30Get out.
00:49:32Lila, there's nothing between me and Vivian.
00:49:35The surrogacy is not for her.
00:49:37I know what I saw.
00:49:38Just get out.
00:50:05What?
00:50:06Angrian!
00:50:08What the hell were you thinking at the board meeting yesterday?
00:50:12Of doing my job.
00:50:14Your job is to follow the family's strategy.
00:50:17Ever since she came into your life, you've been ruining, you've been undermining everything that we built.
00:50:23Leave Lila out of this.
00:50:24I don't need to stand here and listen to you.
00:50:26Oh, run along.
00:50:28The adults are talking business now.
00:50:31Don't worry, dear.
00:50:33We just need to borrow him for a moment.
00:50:35Business matters.
00:50:36I wouldn't understand.
00:50:40She's nothing but a brute mare.
00:50:43Once she delivers, you pay her off and you'll be done with it.
00:50:47Adrian needs someone who understands this world.
00:50:50Someone like me.
00:50:55Vivian joins Crawford Industries tomorrow.
00:51:00Non-negotiable.
00:51:01We'll be with you every day.
00:51:04Just like before.
00:51:05And your little pet project.
00:51:08She can stay at home with a jest egg.
00:51:10That's all she's good for.
00:51:13Get out!
00:51:14Both of you!
00:51:15Dare you.
00:51:17If you ever speak about my wife like that again, I swear I will burn Crawford Industries to the ground
00:51:22before I let either of you touch it.
00:51:27Adrian, be reasonable.
00:51:30She is worth a thousand up here.
00:51:33Tomorrow, 9 a.m.
00:51:35Vivian starts.
00:51:36No discussion.
00:51:37Is that all?
00:51:39For now, don't disappoint me again.
00:51:55Stop it.
00:51:56Stop checking.
00:51:57I was independent before him.
00:51:59I didn't need someone to create a meal plan for me or hold me while I sleep.
00:52:08No.
00:52:10I'm not going to be that girl.
00:52:16I can work on my own.
00:52:18You know, I don't need his arrangements or his dental care.
00:52:25Just a tool for a baby.
00:52:35So Lila and Adrian's relationship is on the rocks.
00:52:39Well, if it isn't the perfect opportunity to gain her trust and trick her back to me.
00:52:45Lila.
00:52:46I'm fine.
00:52:48You're not fine.
00:52:49Hospital.
00:52:50Now.
00:52:51Put me down.
00:52:52Put me down.
00:52:59Thank you for bringing me here.
00:53:01I know we've had our differences.
00:53:06I'm like...
00:53:07Now you used to look at me like this.
00:53:09So sweet and sincere.
00:53:11No.
00:53:12Why not?
00:53:14You're telling me there's really nothing still between us.
00:53:17Ethan.
00:53:18He's using you, Lila.
00:53:20Yeah, I know I've messed up, but seeing the way he treats you, it's tearing me apart.
00:53:28Ethan, you...
00:53:31Adrian, stop.
00:53:32What are you doing?
00:53:33I'm protecting you.
00:53:34Ethan, help me.
00:53:35He found me bleeding and brought me here.
00:53:37Now you're defending him?
00:53:39I'm defending the truth.
00:53:41Someone just may have to surprise you.
00:53:43I see.
00:53:45Adrian.
00:53:46I'll get the doctor.
00:53:48Adrian.
00:53:54I want full blood work, fetal monitoring, and get the OB-GYN down here.
00:54:00Sir, it's just a minor car.
00:54:03I want to get a complete prenatal checkup.
00:54:05I've already called Dr. Reynolds.
00:54:07She'll be here in 10 minutes.
00:54:08So bossy.
00:54:10No, some of us actually know how to make Lila happy.
00:54:14One of those beach dates we used to have.
00:54:17You said I was the best.
00:54:21Thompson, call in the catering.
00:54:24Yeah, the one in the box list.
00:54:27Lila's been craving something.
00:54:29Medium fatty cut.
00:54:31No, what's up?
00:54:32I didn't say those.
00:54:34The prenatal vitamins I researched should arrive shortly.
00:54:37They're custom formulated for a Lila flood type and genetic makeup.
00:54:47Everything's already being taken care of.
00:54:49You can defend him.
00:54:51If he touches you, Reagan.
00:54:53I'll be there.
00:54:56I didn't mean to.
00:54:58Wait.
00:55:05Vivian was sick.
00:55:07I gave her a key and let her rest at our place.
00:55:10Overworked, they say.
00:55:12I'm cleaning up your company's mess.
00:55:15I have meetings.
00:55:17Well, cancel them.
00:55:19You're going to take care of her now.
00:55:21No negotiation.
00:55:23Well, either you show proper respect to the woman I chose for you,
00:55:27or I'll call an emergency board meeting.
00:55:35You can skip the performance, Vivian.
00:55:39It's still so cold.
00:55:42Remember the first time you bought me flowers?
00:55:45Yeah, that was a long time ago.
00:55:48Adrian, we could be that again.
00:55:54Whatever game you're playing here, it won't work.
00:56:00Get out.
00:56:01I want my fiance seeing you.
00:56:05Maybe I was wrong.
00:56:07I should have trusted him.
00:56:09I should have given him a chance to explain.
00:56:14I guess something's never changed.
00:56:32Laila.
00:56:33Hi, Dad.
00:56:40Your hand.
00:56:41It's nothing.
00:56:44Dad, I have something I want to tell you.
00:56:50I'm having a baby.
00:56:52You're going to be a grandpa.
00:56:54Is that one of Ethan's boys?
00:56:56No, not him.
00:56:58In who?
00:56:59It doesn't matter.
00:57:01Dad, look.
00:57:02What really matters is that this is my baby.
00:57:05And I am going to love them just like you love me.
00:57:10Oh, sweetheart.
00:57:11I'm so sorry.
00:57:13I'm sorry I couldn't take care of you.
00:57:15If I was healthier, if I could work...
00:57:18Dad, it's okay.
00:57:20The hospital bills.
00:57:21Where are you going to get the money from?
00:57:24How are you going to pay for them?
00:57:27Please tell me you didn't sell yourself to someone.
00:57:30No, Dad.
00:57:31It isn't like that.
00:57:32Did someone take advantage of you?
00:57:34My little girl.
00:57:36Pregnant and alone.
00:57:38She's not alone.
00:57:44Adrian.
00:57:45Mr. Reid.
00:57:46I'm Adrian Crawford.
00:57:48I'm the father of the child.
00:57:51Not just the father.
00:57:53I'm the man who's going to spend the rest of his life making sure that your daughter and our child
00:57:58have everything they deserve.
00:58:01Pretty words from a rich man.
00:58:03Not words.
00:58:05Facts.
00:58:06I've already arranged for you to be transferred to a private medical facility.
00:58:10Full treatment plan.
00:58:11The very best specialists.
00:58:13Adrian.
00:58:14And I promise you this.
00:58:16Every morning, your daughter will wake up knowing that she's cherished.
00:58:21Every decision I make, every step I take, will be to ensure her happiness.
00:58:28You really mean that you really mean that you really mean that you don't have to worry so much anymore.
00:58:45Thank you for saying all that.
00:58:47I know you were just trying to make my dad feel better, but...
00:58:50I wasn't just trying to do anything.
00:58:54Everything I said was true.
00:58:56I thought you were just worried about me breaking the contract.
00:59:01Finally, you have to understand something.
00:59:03I have been falling for you ever since you crashed into my office with that ridiculous donor questionnaire.
00:59:11Yes, we had a contract.
00:59:14But I realized you've become everything to me.
00:59:24If you're willing, would you like to forget the contract and become my real wife?
00:59:41Faye.
00:59:42Did she come and see you?
00:59:45Did she hurt you?
00:59:46No.
00:59:48Just...
00:59:49Was it she your true love?
00:59:51I saw you taking care of her.
00:59:52What?
00:59:53I have nothing to do with her anymore.
00:59:56Yes, my father asked her over, but I kicked her out.
00:59:59I haven't had feelings for her since we broke up.
01:00:03Really?
01:00:12I'm not letting you go.
01:00:14Not ever.
01:00:15I think we're past trying to hide who we are.
01:00:19I think we're past trying to hide who we are.
01:00:45hired her. She's just a surrogate. The whole engagement is a lie. A contract? Oh the board
01:00:56would love to hear about this. Next week's family meeting, we reveal everything. Until
01:01:03then, we need to find some evidence. And once he's ruined? I'll comfort him. Help him rebuild
01:01:12of course. Show him who really belongs by his side. And Lila? Once the truce out, she'll
01:01:20be worthless to him. You can have your little toy back. Thankfully Mr. Crawford gave me
01:01:37the key. Surrogate agreement. Wonderful history. There must be some evidence somewhere. Adrian's
01:02:06is always so organized. Where are the important documents? Adrian? Is that you? Shit.
01:02:32What? Vivian? Adrian? What are you doing here? I was just looking for you. You know, Adrian,
01:02:48if it's an heir you want, you can make one right now. Poor Lila doesn't have to know. She's
01:02:56already asleep. It'll be our little secret. Here. In the hallway. Wherever you want, darling.
01:03:08What if someone sees us? Scared? I know somewhere. Private. Can't risk being interrupted, can we?
01:03:26Andre? Adrian? Adrian! Enjoy the storage closet! Adrian!
01:03:47How'd it go?
01:03:48Just dry.
01:03:49Guess as much.
01:03:51Don't worry.
01:03:52Got a new plan now.
01:03:54Dr. Anderson will tell us if there's a surrogate involved.
01:04:01Everything looks perfect.
01:04:02The baby is developing perfectly.
01:04:04Really?
01:04:05Really.
01:04:06You have officially entered the stable station.
01:04:08As long as you are gentle, intimacy is perfectly safe.
01:04:14Oh.
01:04:16Listen to your buddies and then...
01:04:18Thanks, thanks, Doc.
01:04:19Thanks.
01:04:30Mr. Anderson.
01:04:34Let's talk about the scene Sinclair's arrangement.
01:04:39Was it a contract surrogacy?
01:04:41Mr. Harrington, I can't discuss patient information.
01:04:46I hear the hospital is opening up a new wing.
01:04:49It would be a shame if your name mysteriously disappeared in the best room.
01:04:56Won't it?
01:05:00Shall we talk about an arrangement now?
01:05:12Oh, my God.
01:05:16Oh, my God.
01:05:23Surrogacy.
01:05:25Surrogacy.
01:05:28Five generations.
01:05:30Four for dignity.
01:05:33All trash by a tabloid scandal.
01:05:37A surrogacy.
01:05:38A surrogate.
01:05:39You used a surrogate to gain the inheritance?
01:05:42If that's what you wanted, Adrian, why didn't you just say it?
01:05:46Why drag the family's name through the mud?
01:05:49This isn't true.
01:05:50It's nothing but a malicious rumor.
01:05:53Don't believe everything you see in the news.
01:05:56Lila and I...
01:05:58We're in love.
01:06:03Your lives stop here, Uncle.
01:06:09Grandfather.
01:06:10The files.
01:06:11Proving their contract.
01:06:12Lila isn't his fiancée.
01:06:15She's just a surrogate who got hired to bear an heir.
01:06:20Medical files.
01:06:22From Crawford Fertility Center.
01:06:25They show Miss Reed undergoing IVF treatment.
01:06:29And was generously compensated.
01:06:33A surrogate.
01:06:34How vulgar.
01:06:36You dare deceive me with this filth?
01:06:39Dragging the 12-foot name through the mud?
01:06:42I'll deal with it.
01:06:44Goodbye.
01:06:45How?
01:06:46God knows what else you've schemed.
01:06:50Actually, I might have a solution.
01:06:53Replace Adrian's fiancée with me.
01:06:57Let Lila take the fall in the media.
01:07:00She's just a desperate gold digger who wants to bear an heir.
01:07:03Just so she can become queen.
01:07:06Shut your mouth.
01:07:11Fine.
01:07:13Marry Vivian now.
01:07:15Or you give up your shares and get out.
01:07:19Adrian, I always get the man you want.
01:07:25Whether she does this, you could still get inheritance.
01:07:29No rush.
01:07:30Let's get them into trouble.
01:07:33He's fought too hard to lose everything now.
01:07:39I'll give it all up.
01:07:41The company.
01:07:43My inheritance.
01:07:46Everything.
01:07:48But not Lila.
01:07:50Not my wife.
01:07:52The only woman I've ever loved.
01:07:55And we're getting married.
01:07:57Officially.
01:07:59Publicly.
01:08:10Simon!
01:08:11You want to give up everything for her.
01:08:13Give up your inheritance.
01:08:15Everything goes to Eden.
01:08:18Adrian, you're giving up your inheritance just for her?
01:08:23Are you insane?
01:08:24I would never choose anything over my wife.
01:08:28Not ever.
01:08:29And I would never choose you.
01:08:31You'll regret this.
01:08:36Go on.
01:08:38Sign this.
01:08:40Walk away from your legacy.
01:08:41So you've had this planned all along?
01:08:50Hey, hey, wait.
01:08:53Don't look.
01:08:55I'm not worth giving up your future.
01:08:57You are my future.
01:09:00You're my everything.
01:09:02You are natural.
01:09:15Let's go.
01:09:27Adrian.
01:09:29Hey, what's wrong?
01:09:30Mom, don't tell me you only love me for my CEO status and my mommy.
01:09:35No, I can make more money.
01:09:38You know, I'm kind of excited to be your sugar mommy.
01:09:41I've always wanted a sugar mommy.
01:09:44Wait, yeah, I'm just going to grab somebody from the car.
01:09:57What are you doing here?
01:09:59Why?
01:10:00What does she have that I don't?
01:10:02Why do you always choose her?
01:10:04It's simple.
01:10:05I love her.
01:10:07Not you.
01:10:09Adrian, please.
01:10:10I was wrong.
01:10:12I was wrong.
01:10:42Hey.
01:10:44Hey.
01:10:46Beautiful.
01:10:51Yeah.
01:10:53It is.
01:11:01Milo, were you?
01:11:03Yes.
01:11:04Of course.
01:11:07Of course.
01:11:15When did you get this?
01:11:18Back when I realized I'd give up everything for me.
01:11:37How's it going?
01:11:39Good.
01:11:40Just finished my last sketch.
01:11:43I didn't hear a sugar mommy just said I did another big deal.
01:11:51Yeah?
01:11:52Adrian, come back to the Crawford family.
01:11:55Come back to your position and your inheritance.
01:12:05What do you mean you're canceling the contract?
01:12:07We've been partners for 10 years.
01:12:13Grandfather, no.
01:12:14Please don't call Adrian.
01:12:18So you want me to come back?
01:12:21I have to ask my wife.
01:12:24What do you think, Mrs. Crawford?
01:12:31First order of business today.
01:12:35What is this?
01:12:36Starting without me.
01:12:37Perfect timing.
01:12:39I was just announcing your termination.
01:12:42The company crisis last month turns out wasn't an accident.
01:12:47Ethan deliberately sabotaged every deal.
01:12:50There's no proof.
01:12:51You misappropriated partnership funds to indulge in your own personal affairs.
01:12:56Bad investments, shady deals, and reckless spending have led us to financial setbacks and operational setbacks.
01:13:06And, and it's all documented right here, the lawsuit's already been filed.
01:13:13What?
01:13:14You actually did this?
01:13:17No, Ramcock.
01:13:18He's lying.
01:13:19It's all a lie.
01:13:22Dad, either you let me handle this my way, or I can still walk.
01:13:38Mr. Crawford, the vote for new director.
01:13:44Competence is everything.
01:13:47I'm getting old.
01:13:49And from now on, Adrian will handle everything.
01:13:54No.
01:13:55Don't listen to him.
01:13:57Don't listen to him.
01:13:57Please.
01:13:58You're making a mistake.
01:14:00Where are you going?
01:14:03My company, you hear that?
01:14:05My fucking company.
01:14:06Come back.
01:14:11The baby's asleep.
01:14:14Guess that means I get you all to myself.
01:14:18Don't distract me.
01:14:19I'm almost finished.
01:14:22I'm designing my wedding dress.
01:14:24Incredible.
01:14:26I might hire you to design my tux.
01:14:30You know, I think I'm going to have to check my schedule.
01:14:34Oh, it's like that.
01:14:38I still can't believe we're getting married.
01:14:41Ever since you crashed into me at the hospital, I haven't been able to get you out of my head.
01:14:45And soon I'll be able to love you openly and officially for the rest of my life.
01:14:52Uh, practicing your vats?
01:14:54Yeah.
01:14:58Can we practice the kiss as well?
01:15:01If you have to.
01:15:15Your father said, no fiancé by Christmas, no inheritance.
01:15:19Do you really want to give all that up?
01:15:27Everybody, this is my new girlfriend.
01:15:31You didn't tell me your parents were this rich.
01:15:35I brought you all a basket from the Miller Park.
01:15:38A bottle.
