Short filmTranscript
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.
00:16:44Myla.
00:16:45Myla.
00:16:45Stay on your side.
00:16:51Myla.
00:16:53Myla, wake up.
00:16:57Myla.
00:17:01Myla.
00:17:02Myla.
00:17:02Myla.
00:17:03Myla.
00:17:03Myla.
00:17:04Myla.
00:17:05Myla.
00:17:08Myla.
00:17:12Myla.
00:17:26Myla.
00:17:43Oh, oh, oh, that's cold.
00:17:58That's cold.
00:18:06Ow!
00:18:08Sorry, didn't see you.
00:18:11It's hard to notice the help.
00:18:16Ah!
00:18:17My 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.
00:19:18Next 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.
00:20:03Is 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.
00:20:45I'm just trying to help.
00:20:47Get out.
00:20:47Sir, I 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 salt.
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 will if they weren't to get to me.
00:21:31I promise.
00:21:38Lali, what happened?
00:21:42What should I do?
00:21:55How's the happy couple today?
00:22:04How'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.
00:22:25It's okay.
00:22:25Come here.
00:22:26Here's that.
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 correction room and use your hand.
00:22:54Okay.
00:23:22Mr. Crawford, are you all right in there?
00:23:27I'm fine.
00:23:29I just need some assistance.
00:23:34Oh, do you need help?
00:23:35What?
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.
00:24:01Do you want to help?
00:24:02Yeah.
00:24:03What can I...
00:24:05Oh, my God.
00:24:07You saw...
00:24:08No, no, 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 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.
00:25:09Um, 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.
00:25:58Purely professional care.
00:26:15Purely professional care.
00:26:26Adrien, wait.
00:26:27About this weekend.
00:26:28Sorry, emergency in Atlanta.
00:26:29The merger's falling apart.
00:26:31Thompson, have the jet ready in 20.
00:26:34Your family invited me to dinner.
00:26:36Now you know what?
00:26:38I can do it myself.
00:26:42I don't suppose that we could expect punctuality from someone who has never owned a watch in
00:26:49her entire life.
00:26:52I introduced him to the Thompson Harris.
00:26:55Senator's daughter.
00:26:57I don't know why he picked this gold digger from God knows where.
00:27:02Ethan, what did you say that she does?
00:27:05A fashion designer?
00:27:07Worse.
00:27:09Seamstress.
00:27:09She probably thinks having the Crockford family do her name will raise her to the top
00:27:15and then she can have her own fashion show.
00:27:17She's poor.
00:27:18Fine.
00:27:19But no sense of time either.
00:27:22I need to have a serious talk with Adrien.
00:27:25Probably just sticking to her wardrobe.
00:27:26Can't find something to wear.
00:27:28A fashion designer scrounging around for an outfit.
00:27:32How ironic.
00:27:33Maybe her designs are just too embarrassing to be seen in public.
00:27:37Okay.
00:27:38But seriously.
00:27:40I mean, I do pity her, right?
00:27:43Her worthless clothing and our beautiful home.
00:27:46I mean, it must be incredibly humiliating.
00:27:52Go get her now.
00:27:53Yeah.
00:27:55Exactly.
00:27:57Go get everything Ole.
00:28:03Everyone of me is yours.

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.
00:38:56It is not going to happen.
00:39:07Why?
00:39:07You seem to care a lot about him.
00:39:10No, 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, Justin?
00:39:19Just...
00:39:21I know you're not like that.
00:39:25Just get some rest.
00:39:26Make yourself at home.
00:39:28Anything you need, anything you want, I'll be around.
00:39:31Whatever I want.
00:39:48What 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.
00:40:01The 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.
00:40:19How 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.
00:40:59I...
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.
00:41:10Yeah.
00:41:11Yeah.
00:41:11Dr. 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.
00:41:42You know, I'm actually feeling kind of sick.
00:41:47So, why don't we try this again tomorrow?
00:41:51And, 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.
00:42:36Just be yourself.
00:42:51Adrian, it's been so long.

00:43:04You look exactly the same.
00:43:06You look exactly the same.
00:43:08And you must be the fiance.

00:43:16That's very sweet.
00:43:17I'm sorry.
00:43:18You are...
00:43:19Just someone who wants Adrian's happiness.

00:50:17Ever since she came into your life, you've been ruining,
00:50:21you've been undermining everything that we built.
00:50:23Leave Ryla out of this.

00:50:35Business matters.

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.
00:50:56Vivian joins Crawford Industries tomorrow.
00:51:00Non-negotiable.
00:51:02We'll be with you every day.

00:51:14Both of you!
00:51:15Dare you.
00:51:17If you ever speak about my wife like that again,
00:51:20I swear I will burn Crawford Industries to the ground before I let either of you touch it.
00:51:26Adrian, be reasonable.
00:51:30She's worth a thousand up here.
00:51:33Tomorrow, 9am.
00:51:35Vivian starts.
00:51:36No discussion.
00:51:38Is that all?
00:51:39For now, don't disappoint me again.
00:51:55Stop it!
00:51:56Stop checking!
00:51:57I...
00:51:57I was independent before him.
00:51:59I didn't need someone to...
00:52:01Create a meal plan for me or...
00:52:04Hold me while I sleep.
00:52:08No.
00:52:10I'm not gonna be that girl.
00:52:16I can work on my own.
00:52:18You know, I don't need his...
00:52:21Arrangements or his...
00:52:23Dental care.
00:52:25Just a tool for a baby.
00:52:27Ah!
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...
00:53:00For bringing me here.
00:53:01I know we've had our...
00:53:03Differences.
00:53:06I'm like...
00:53:06Now 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...
00:53:22Seeing 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.
00:53:37And now you're defending him?
00:53:39I'm defending the truth.
00:53:41Someone's going to surprise you.
00:53:43I see.
00:53:46Adrian...
00:53:46I'll get the doctor.
00:53:49Adrian...
00:53:54I want full blood work.
00:53:55I'll get the OBGYN down here.
00:54:00Sir, it's just a minor cough.
00:54:03I want to get a complete prenatal check-up.
00:54:05I've already called Dr. Reynolds.
00:54:07She'll be here in 10 minutes.
00:54:08So bossy.
00:54:10You know, some of us actually know how to make Lila happy.
00:54:14None of those beach dates we used to have.
00:54:17I think you said I was the best.
00:54:21Thompson, call in the catering.
00:54:24Yeah, the one in the push 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.
00:54:58Hello.
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 do that again.
00:55:50We could do that again.
00:55:54Whatever game you're playing here.
00:55:56It won't work.
00:56:00Get out.
00:56:02I want my fiance seeing you here.
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.
00:56:34Hi, 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.
00:56:57Not him.
00:56:58Then who?
00:56:59It doesn't matter.
00:57:00Dad, 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.
00:57:22Where 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.
00:57:49I'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
00:57:56and our child have everything they deserve.
00:58:00Pretty 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.
00:58:22Every decision I make, every step I take, will be to ensure her happiness.
00:58:28You really mean her, don't you?
00:58:31Yes, I do.
00:58:34Well, maybe I don't have to worry so much anymore.
00:58:47Saying all that, I 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.
00:59:18Not my surrogate.
00:59:20Not my pretend fiance.
00:59:25If you're willing, would you like to forget the contract and become my real wife?
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? I 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.
01:00:23Surrogacy?
01:00:24Contract marriage?
01:00:27No, this is perfect.
01:00:32What was so urgent?
01:00:34I 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.
01:00:43Your perfect uncle?
01:00:44He hired her.
01:00:45She's just a surrogate.
01:00:48The whole engagement is a lie.
01:00:51A contract?
01:00:54Oh, the board would love to hear about this.
01:00:59Next week's family meeting, we reveal everything.
01:01:03Until then, we need to find some evidence.
01:01:08And once he's ruined?
01:01:10I'll comfort him.
01:01:11Help him rebuild, of course.
01:01:14Show him who really belongs by his side.
01:01:17And Lila?
01:01:18Once the truce out, she'll be worthless to him.
01:01:21You can have your little toy back.
01:01:36Thankfully, Mr. Crawford gave me the key.
01:01:53Surrogate agreement.
01:01:57What a cool history.
01:02:00There must be some evidence somewhere.
01:02:02I know.
01:02:06Adrian's always so organized.
01:02:08Where are the important documents?
01:02:23Adrian?
01:02:25Is that you?
01:02:32Shit.
01:02:38Vivian!
01:02:41Oh, Adrian!
01:02:42What are you doing here?
01:02:44I was just looking for you.
01:02:47You know, Adrian.
01:02:48If it's an heir you want, you can make one right now.
01:02:54Poor Lila doesn't have to know.
01:02:56She's already asleep.
01:02:58It'll be our little...
01:03:00secret.
01:03:03Here.
01:03:04In the hallway.
01:03:05Wherever you want, darling.
01:03:08What if someone sees us?
01:03:09Scared?
01:03:11I know somewhere.
01:03:14Private.
01:03:20Can't risk being interrupted, can we?
01:03:26Adrian?
01:03:27Adrian!
01:03:29Enjoy the storage closet!
01:03:31Adrian!
01:03:46How'd it go?
01:03:48Just drive.
01:03:49Guess as much.
01:03:51Don't worry.
01:03:51I've got 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.
01:04:10Intimacy is perfectly safe.
01:04:14Oh.
01:04:16Listen to your buddies and then...
01:04:18Thanks, Doc.
01:04:19Thanks.
01:04:29Mr. Anderson.
01:04:34Let's talk about the scene Sinclair's...
01:04:37arrangement.
01:04:39Was it a contract surgery?
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 ashamed if your name mysteriously disappeared in the basement.
01:04:56Weren't it?
01:04:59Shall we talk about my arrangement now?
01:05:12Oh, my God.
01:05:14No, no, no, no.
01:05:18You won't pay for anything.
01:05:19No, no, no, no.
01:05:22No, no.
01:05:23What?
01:05:29No, no.
01:05:31No, no, no, no.
01:05:32Dignity. All trash by a tabloid scandal.
01:05:37A surrogate. You 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.
01:05:51It's nothing but a malicious rumor.
01:05:53Don't believe everything you see in the news.
01:05:57Myla and I were in love.
01:06:03Your lives stop here, Uncle.
01:06:08Grandfather, the files.
01:06:11Proving their contract.
01:06:13Lila isn't his fiance.
01:06:15She's just a surrogate who got hired to bear an heir.
01:06:20Medical files from Crawford Fertility Center.
01:06:25They show Ms. Reed undergoing IVF treatment.
01:06:29And was generously compensated.
01:06:33A surrogate. How vulgar.
01:06:36You dare deceive me with this, Mel?
01:06:39Dragging the 12-foot name through the mud?
01:06:42I'll deal with it.
01:06:44All right.
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 fiancee 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 just so she can become queen.
01:07:06I'll shut your mouth.
01:07:11Fine.
01:07:13Marry Vivian now.
01:07:15Will 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.
01:07:32He's fought too hard to lose everything now.
01:07:37He'll do it.
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.
01:08:20You're giving up your inheritance just for her?
01:08:23Are you insane?
01:08:25I 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, hey, wait.
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?
01:09:31Don't tell me you only love me for my CEO status and my money.
01:09:35No, I can make more money.
01:09:38You know, I'm kind of excited to be your sugar mommy.
01:09:40I've always wanted a sugar mommy.
01:09:42Hey.
01:09:44Wait, yeah, I was 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?
01:10:01Why 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.
01:10:11I don't know.
01:10:13I don't know.
01:10:17I don't know.
01:10:18I don't know.
01:10:19I don't know.
01:10:21I don't know.
01:10:22I don't know.
01:10:22I don't know.
01:10:22I don't know.
01:10:22I don't know.
01:10:22I don't know.
01:10:23I don't know.
01:10:25I don't know.
01:10:26I don't know.
01:10:42Hey.
01:10:44Hi.
01:10:46Beautiful.
01:10:51Yeah.
01:10:53It is.
01:10:54It is.
01:10:56It is.
01:11:01Milo, were you?
01:11:03Yes.
01:11:04Of course.
01:11:15When did you get this?
01:11:18Back when I realized I'd give up everything, truly.
01:11:37How's it going out?
01:11:39Good.
01:11:40Just finished my last sketch.
01:11:43I didn't hear a sugar mommy just saying 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 ten years.
01:12:13Grandfather, no. Please 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.
01:13:07And it's all documented right here.
01:13:11The lawsuit's already been filed.
01:13:14What?
01:13:15You actually did this?
01:13:17No, Grandpa.
01:13:18He's lying.
01:13:19It's all a lie.
01:13:22Dad.
01:13:23Either you let me handle this my way.
01:13:25Or I can still walk.
01:13:31Adrian.
01:13:37Mr. Crawford.
01:13:39The vote for new director.
01:13:44Competence is everything.
01:13:47I'm getting old.
01:13:48And 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.
01:14:04You 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.
01:14:20I'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.
01:15:02Yeah.
01:15:15Your father said no fiance by Christmas.
01:15:18No inheritance.
01:15:20Do you really want to give all that up?
01:15:28Everybody?
01:15:28This 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 bottom.
01:15:38Know back.
01:15:38The couple doesn't have to try that out.
01:15:39Well, I just came back my calendar now.
