00:00:28You
00:00:30And after three months, the police concluded Audrey Hale's death suicide. Miss Hale worked for Cross Enterprises, one of the
00:00:37biggest real estate companies in the country, and was the youngest manager.
00:00:42I have an interview later, Mother.
00:00:44I swear. Ashton, you throw away assistance as if they have expiration dates printed on them. Don't worry. I won't
00:00:51take long.
00:00:53This is the third time this month. And every time, it means thousands of dollars paid to shut up these
00:00:59blood-sucking flies on the wall.
00:01:02Come on. Boys just want to have fun.
00:01:05Not when you're taking over a publicly traded company in two weeks.
00:01:11You leave me no choice.
00:01:15You're not crossing me off the trust fund.
00:01:19I won't. If you get married.
00:01:33Hi, I'm Zoe Campbell. I'm here for my interview.
00:01:41Take a seat. We'll call you when he's ready.
00:01:43Oh, okay. Um, thank you.
00:01:46Who did her hair? Do you think she even combed it this morning?
00:01:49Oh, no. She did not comb it.
00:01:51It's called a rat's nest.
00:01:52Oh, yes.
00:01:56This is bullshit.
00:01:58It can help redeem your image.
00:02:00It'll show the public that you've stopped screwing around.
00:02:03I started acting like a cronaut.
00:02:05I never wanted to be CEO.
00:02:06You know very well why you cannot be the same.
00:02:11What do I have to remind you?
00:02:15No.
00:02:25What does she think she's doing?
00:02:27Oh, I swear these girls are getting dumber.
00:02:29At least we get a show.
00:02:32You're the heir to the Cross family, Ashton.
00:02:35This is the hand you've been dealt with.
00:02:38Play it well.
00:02:40This company is your father's life's work.
00:02:43I'm not letting a weak link ruin it.
00:02:45I'm so sorry for interrupting.
00:02:50I'm so sorry for interrupting, but Jeff said he needed your signature in three minutes,
00:02:56or we wouldn't be able to close the contract with Gabe from K&L,
00:03:00and he'd be really, really unhappy.
00:03:03Who are you?
00:03:04Pam from Marketing Strategies.
00:03:07Mrs. Cross, it's a pleasure to meet you.
00:03:09Thank you, Pam.
00:03:11Well, obviously, Pam and I have a lot of work to do.
00:03:15We'll talk about this another time.
00:03:18You're not off the hook, Ashton.
00:03:20I've gone through great lengths to set you up with some very worthy candidates.
00:03:25Remember, you have two weeks, and I want to see a ring.
00:03:31We're so sorry, Mr. Cross.
00:03:33We didn't mean to let this woman disturb you.
00:03:36Yeah, we're really sorry.
00:03:37We'll escort her out right away.
00:03:38Did I say I wanted her out?
00:03:41She's fine.
00:03:42She can stay.
00:03:43Go back to work.
00:03:47Now, go back to work.
00:03:48Okay.
00:03:56Zoe Campbell.
00:03:58Why did you just burst in here like that?
00:03:59I didn't mean to eavesdrop, but it sounded like you could use an escape from that conversation.
00:04:04And you came up with that whole story on the spot, just like that.
00:04:07Act fast under pressure.
00:04:15You're hired.
00:04:17Okay.
00:04:18Your first day starts right now.
00:04:20Didn't expect it to be so easy.
00:04:22But yes, I guess it all starts right now.
00:04:30I never said I was selling.
00:04:33Xander.
00:04:35Wouldn't it make more sense if you didn't live in a penthouse?
00:04:38You'd also be closer to your PT, which Mother says is progressing.
00:04:43I wouldn't call taking five steps with a walker progressing.
00:04:48I should probably leave.
00:04:50Stay.
00:04:51I see my little brother has yet another young lady in his life.
00:04:55This is my new assistant.
00:04:57Her name is Zoe.
00:05:01I shall enjoy getting to know your acquaintance, Zoe.
00:05:04At least these next few months.
00:05:07If you last not long.
00:05:08Xander.
00:05:09I can fend for myself.
00:05:13So, what happened to you?
00:05:16I assumed Dashman would have told you why I'm in this show.
00:05:18Can we discuss the apartment?
00:05:21I almost died two years ago.
00:05:26I almost died two years ago.
00:05:29Car accident.
00:05:32Our father died.
00:05:35It made the front page of every paper.
00:05:38Cross Kingdom shattered overnight.
00:05:41What the press forgot to mention.
00:05:43You were there.
00:05:45In the accident.
00:05:47Yes, I was there.
00:05:49Can we discuss the apartment?
00:05:52Please?
00:05:54This meeting has completely been derailed.
00:05:58Zoe, perhaps it's best if Xander and I continue alone.
00:06:06Wait, Zoe.
00:06:08I know my brother.
00:06:09And I know he's charming.
00:06:11I'm sure you've heard the stories of all the women late night partying.
00:06:16Most of those women were in your position.
00:06:18That's what I'm telling you now.
00:06:20That's what I'm telling you now.
00:06:21If he doesn't bend you over one way, he'll break you in another.
00:06:27Really, Xander?
00:06:28Thank you for your concern.
00:06:30But the last thing you need to worry about is me falling for your brother.
00:06:34I assure you, you should be more afraid of me.
00:06:41Interesting.
00:06:42I feel like I know you from somewhere.
00:06:46Maybe another life.
00:06:49Must be.
00:06:52As I stated previously, I have no intention of selling.
00:06:56Xander, please.
00:06:58I'm only trying to help you.
00:07:03I don't know about you, but I could use a drink.
00:07:15I guess you could say that my relationship with my brother is improving.
00:07:20I mean, at least you're willing to work on it.
00:07:23I made him a very attractive offer.
00:07:25Maybe Xander secretly wants to be close to you.
00:07:29Yeah, we don't have to talk about my brother.
00:07:31Or business.
00:07:33What should we talk about?
00:07:35You tricked my mother and stood your own against Xander on the same day.
00:07:39That makes me a little curious.
00:07:44You know, they say curiosity is a dangerous thing.
00:07:47I'm not just another assistant you're going to go home with.
00:07:52I've had a lovely evening, though.
00:07:54And I'll see you tomorrow.
00:08:10Curiosity isn't enough.
00:08:12I need his trust.
00:08:15I've changed my face.
00:08:17I've come so far.
00:08:19There's no turning back.
00:08:48There's no turning back.
00:09:13I'll find out the truth about you, Audrey.
00:09:17And I'll make him pay.
00:09:19I promise.
00:09:25I can't believe she left with Ashton last night.
00:09:29You know what they say.
00:09:29You sleep with the right person.
00:09:30You get the right job.
00:09:33Oh my God.
00:09:34You spilled coffee everywhere.
00:09:51That was so embarrassing.
00:09:53Excuse me, ladies.
00:09:54I'm afraid I need to confiscate your key cards and escort you out.
00:09:58Wait, what?
00:09:58Why?
00:09:59It was a direct order from Mr. Cross.
00:10:01He fired us?
00:10:03I mean, he can't do that.
00:10:04I believe he can.
00:10:07Now, are you packing yourself?
00:10:09Or do you need a hand?
00:10:18You messed up the wrong person.
00:10:20You lose your job.
00:10:36Zoe, get in.
00:10:37You're coming with me.
00:10:40Look, Mr. Cross, I appreciate what you did, but I can't be seen going home with you every night.
00:10:45It's unprofessional.
00:10:46Zoe, you're my assistant now.
00:10:48You're going to work when I need you to work.
00:10:50Or I can save us both the trouble and fire you right now.
00:10:5526 hours.
00:10:56That would be a record even for me.
00:11:03Can I at least ask where we're going?
00:11:06On a date.
00:11:08What?
00:11:11Mr. Cross, I can't do this.
00:11:14Black Zoe, this isn't for you.
00:11:17This is for me.
00:11:18And a friend.
00:11:20You brought me on a date with another woman?
00:11:23Technically, three other women.
00:11:25Why would you do that?
00:11:27I trust your judgment.
00:11:29Tell me which one of these girls I should marry.
00:11:34I just love yachts.
00:11:37You know, you sail out from L.A. and the entire Atlantic Ocean is yours.
00:11:42The Pacific Ocean.
00:11:44What?
00:11:47Never mind.
00:11:48I actually don't own a yacht.
00:11:50But you're rich!
00:11:53I'm sorry, this is a deal breaker.
00:11:56Maybe you should just go for your assistant.
00:11:58She's a little maintenance.
00:12:01Okay.
00:12:03Babies, I mean, they're just so small.
00:12:05They're scrungy and they look old.
00:12:07Like old people, but they're little and they're babies and they don't know how to talk to you.
00:12:11And so they start screaming and they start crying and they poop and it goes everywhere and they throw up.
00:12:16And honestly, it's the grossest thing I've ever experienced in my entire life.
00:12:20And not even that I experience babies because I've never been around babies.
00:12:23Other than the fact that I used to be a baby, I just, I do not like babies at all.
00:12:28I think children are one of the most amazing gifts of life.
00:12:31And you are so funny, Ashton.
00:12:34I mean, the reality is just that babies would also get in the way of my social life.
00:12:38And I have very high standards for, like, living.
00:12:43And so...
00:12:44Don't you think that's kind of selfish?
00:12:48Don't you think that's kind of selfish?
00:12:52I'm being a realist.
00:12:54And you're joking, right?
00:12:56A man with your Playboy reputation.
00:12:59You're honestly telling me that you want to settle down and have children.
00:13:07You are so funny.
00:13:09My mother said that you studied literature.
00:13:12Have you, uh, read Fitzgerald?
00:13:15Who?
00:13:16Oh, no, I didn't go to school.
00:13:18Did I go to school with him?
00:13:19I don't think I went to school with him.
00:13:21No, no, no.
00:13:22Uh, Fitzgerald.
00:13:23The Great Gatsby.
00:13:26I love Leonardo DiCaprio.
00:13:28I love him.
00:13:29I was at a party, and he was, like, so hitting on me.
00:13:32It was so crazy.
00:13:34He was so short.
00:13:35It was so weird.
00:13:36Everything's been taken care of.
00:13:37Have a great night, alright?
00:13:37Oh, you paid for it?
00:13:38Yeah.
00:13:39Oh, really?
00:13:39Oh, thank you.
00:13:40Joey, let's go.
00:13:40Yeah.
00:13:41Where are we going?
00:13:42Um, I have another date.
00:13:44Can you order another way, like, on your way out?
00:13:47Absolutely.
00:13:47Okay.
00:13:49Tell your mom I said hi.
00:13:50I miss her.
00:13:51Yes, you will do.
00:13:51Okay.
00:13:58Absolutely.
00:13:59Cheers.
00:14:03So, um, Fitzgerald, you want kids?
00:14:08I have to say, I did not expect that.
00:14:11Let me guess.
00:14:12You thought I was some playboy who didn't care about anything, just like everybody else.
00:14:17The truth is, when people misunderstand you, and enough misunderstand you, you slowly forget
00:14:26who you are, too.
00:14:30This place is amazing.
00:14:34Xander and I designed this place.
00:14:37Wow.
00:14:38You were close.
00:14:40Yeah.
00:14:42Until we weren't.
00:14:45Do you have any siblings?
00:14:48No.
00:14:49Um, it's just me.
00:14:53You know, two years ago, it was actually me who was supposed to be on that flight to Zurich
00:14:59with my father.
00:15:00Not Xander.
00:15:03And sometimes, I wish it was me.
00:15:07I was supposed to be in the car, not Xander.
00:15:12And sometimes, I wish it was me.
00:15:17It was late at night.
00:15:21The car was headed to the airport.
00:15:26But I didn't show up.
00:15:30Xander was the heir.
00:15:33He was raised to take over the company.
00:15:38But I ruined him.
00:15:40You didn't ruin him.
00:15:42No one's meant to be one thing.
00:15:44I mean, we all have a choice.
00:15:48Not in my world, Zoe.
00:15:50You saw for yourself.
00:15:53I can't even get married when I'd like.
00:15:55Well, maybe not when, but you get to choose who.
00:15:58That's the most important part.
00:16:07What if I chose you?
00:16:11What?
00:16:13You heard me.
00:16:17What?
00:16:20Zoe Campbell.
00:16:23Will you marry me?
00:16:31This is the joke.
00:16:33You're joking.
00:16:35I've never been more serious.
00:16:38Listen, Eshin, you may be used to getting whatever you want, whenever you want it.
00:16:42I don't want to marry you out of convenience.
00:16:46Zoe.
00:16:48Women see me as a golden ticket to money and fame.
00:16:51My father's passed away.
00:16:54Xander sees me as competition, and my mother sees me as a pawn to save the family business.
00:16:58But you, Zoe, you actually see me for who I really am.
00:17:04That's good.
00:17:06You should have used that with some of your blind dates.
00:17:11I have to get married, or I'm crossed off the trust fund.
00:17:15Negotiate your price.
00:17:17I'll have it put together.
00:17:20I'll find out the truth about you, Audrey.
00:17:22And I'll make him pay.
00:17:25I promise.
00:17:47I'll marry you.
00:17:50I'll marry you.
00:17:51And I'll let you know what I want.
00:18:00How do I look?
00:18:04The city's most eligible bachelor is off the market, and mom gets what she wants.
00:18:11The most able-bodied son.
00:18:14Takes the throne and keeps his trust fund.
00:18:17Xander, I've been thinking, would you consider being an advisor for the company?
00:18:22You'd be perfect for it.
00:18:24I'd love to do this for you.
00:18:27With you.
00:18:32Don't worry about me, little brother.
00:18:34I'm just fine.
00:18:37And today's your big day, so don't let me steal the thunder.
00:18:42See you out there.
00:18:59Mrs. Cross.
00:19:04What a lovely bride you are.
00:19:06Ashton is a very lucky man.
00:19:12But you can cut the act with me, sweetheart.
00:19:15I know you and Ashton aren't really together.
00:19:22I know you and Ashton aren't really together.
00:19:27Well, if you really believed that, then why didn't you do something?
00:19:31I wanted to, at first.
00:19:33But then I realized, you're actually perfect.
00:19:37A working-class girl from the wrong side of the tracks.
00:19:42Pretty, but not too gorgeous.
00:19:49Sweet, but not too innocent.
00:19:53You're a real-life Cinderella.
00:19:55And the people love seeing a fairy tale come true.
00:20:00How do you know this will work?
00:20:03Because.
00:20:05It worked for Robert and me.
00:20:09My husband built this empire.
00:20:11But he wouldn't have been able to rule it without me.
00:20:15And now it's your turn to stand next to Ashton on the throne.
00:20:20Support him.
00:20:21Help him.
00:20:24And play your part.
00:20:28I will, Mrs. Cross.
00:20:30Of course you will.
00:20:31And I intend to make sure of it.
00:20:36Stay with Ashton and you'll have everything you need.
00:20:40Title.
00:20:41Money.
00:20:43Leave him.
00:20:44Or harm him.
00:20:46Or his company's name.
00:20:47In any way.
00:20:50And not only won't you see a single penny.
00:20:52But I will personally destroy you.
00:20:59Not only won't you get a single penny.
00:21:03But I will personally destroy you.
00:21:07Well, that's where you're wrong, Mrs. Cross.
00:21:10I don't want anything from him.
00:21:14I just want Ashton.
00:21:25I think it looks perfect.
00:21:28Don't you think so, Mom?
00:21:36The essence of marriage is love, trust, and honesty.
00:21:42The virtues that we as human beings share.
00:21:46Ashton Cross.
00:21:47Do you take this woman to be your wedded wife?
00:21:50I do.
00:21:53Zoe Campbell.
00:21:54Do you take this man to be your wedded husband?
00:21:57To cherish?
00:21:58For better, for worse.
00:22:01For richer, for poorer.
00:22:03Until death do you part?
00:22:24Yes.
00:22:27I do.
00:22:30As a token of your vows, you may exchange your symbol of love.
00:22:44By the power vested in me, by God, I now pronounce you husband and wife.
00:22:50You may kiss the bride.
00:23:19You may kiss the bride.
00:23:21There seems to be a competition going on called
00:23:23Who Can Come Up With The Most Humiliating Article About Zoe Campbell.
00:23:28Zoe Campbell puts a ring on Ashton Cross a week after becoming his assistant.
00:23:32One can only imagine how good Mrs. Campbell is at impressing her boss.
00:23:39Why are you even reading that garbage?
00:23:43I'm just not used to seeing my name trending.
00:23:51You see something you like?
00:23:54Nothing I haven't seen before.
00:23:55Fine.
00:23:56I'll meet you dress for dinner.
00:23:58Uh, uh, I think you're fine.
00:24:00Right where you are.
00:24:08Um, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, huh.
00:24:18Mmm.
00:24:19Baby, my face turns into dark.
00:24:23Turn my inner death into fire.
00:24:40I've never felt like this before, Zoe.
00:24:44Look me in my eyes.
00:24:47Tell me you feel the same way.
00:24:52This marriage is just a piece of paper.
00:24:56That's a contract.
00:24:58Nothing more.
00:25:02Okay.
00:25:09Ashton, what happened to the woman at your work who killed herself?
00:25:14Did you know her?
00:25:16Um, no, not really.
00:25:19I know that she was nice.
00:25:21I saw her in the office a few times, but that was it.
00:25:24Why are you asking?
00:25:26Nothing.
00:25:26I, um, saw it on the news.
00:25:29Thought I was sad.
00:25:31Just wanted to know what the deal was.
00:25:34Yeah.
00:25:36Don't worry about the articles.
00:25:38I'll have it taken care of.
00:25:39You won't see anything tomorrow.
00:25:43Yeah.
00:25:45Don't mention it.
00:25:47Good night.
00:25:48Good night.
00:25:55Good night.
00:26:03Good night.
00:26:14Good night.
00:26:16about the deadly shooting into a waste of people,
00:26:19involving two rival families heavily involved in the crime.
00:26:23No names have been released yet,
00:26:25and the police are actively searching for suspects at all,
00:26:29including certain members of the well-known Saviano and Mencini family.
00:26:33We'll be sure to update everyone on that story,
00:26:35and we'll be back to you tomorrow.
00:26:37Back to you tomorrow.
00:26:41...and the service of Parker Murphy are still at large
00:26:44in the last seat of the warehouse district.
00:26:51I really hope it wasn't you.
00:26:57You can't blame this all on your brother.
00:27:00You need to learn to control your anger.
00:27:03It's consuming you.
00:27:04If you're not asking, I'm not answering.
00:27:06You know this is the only way.
00:27:09It should be me and you know it.
00:27:11And he had the nerve to offer me an advisor position
00:27:14to the company you took away from me.
00:27:16Do you think I want to hand the company over to him?
00:27:26You're right, Xander.
00:27:27It should be you.
00:27:29But we have the board and the shareholders to convince,
00:27:32and they're blind.
00:27:34All they see is you in a wheelchair.
00:27:36Fuck the board! Fuck the shareholders!
00:27:38This is what I mean!
00:27:40This is what I mean!
00:27:40The rage!
00:27:42You were once committed to getting better.
00:27:46We can get over what happened.
00:27:49But you have to want it.
00:27:52He doesn't deserve everything.
00:27:54Your father would have wanted you both to be happy.
00:27:57And that's all I want for you.
00:28:13Are you sure you're not coming?
00:28:15Do I want to go to a charity gala
00:28:18that snobby rich people hold
00:28:19just to feel better about buying three million dollar mansions
00:28:22and not paying taxes?
00:28:24Mmm, I'm good.
00:28:26Thank you, though.
00:28:27Hey, you better watch it.
00:28:29You're married to one of those rich snobby people now.
00:28:32Come on, Zoe.
00:28:34We'll find some way to have fun.
00:28:43Go.
00:28:44You'll be late.
00:28:47Fine.
00:28:48I'll have a car to pick you up
00:28:49if you change your mind.
00:29:16Audrey.
00:29:28Can you get the car ready, please?
00:29:30I am going to the gala.
00:29:33And, um...
00:29:34Don't let Mr. Cross know I'm coming.
00:29:37I want it to be a surprise.
00:29:45Care to grab your brother a drink?
00:29:56I...
00:29:58So, how's the married life?
00:30:00And how's my sister-in-law?
00:30:02She's good.
00:30:02And, you know, this isn't really her thing.
00:30:05That's good.
00:30:07You know, I was worried about her.
00:30:09People are going to say what they're going to say, but...
00:30:11She shouldn't let those rumors bother her.
00:30:14Rumors?
00:30:15What are you talking about?
00:30:16I took care of everything.
00:30:17This came out 30 minutes ago.
00:30:22An anonymous source leaked the prenuptial agreement between real estate mogul Ashton Cross and
00:30:27Zoe Campbell, showing that this is a well-constructed fake marriage.
00:30:31The news confirms suspicions that Zoe is a ploy for Ashton to finally seize the throne
00:30:37of Cross Enterprise.
00:30:41I'm just glad that Zoe's not here to take the blow.
00:30:49Zoe?
00:30:57You told me you barely knew her.
00:30:58What are you talking about?
00:30:59I'm talking about this book.
00:31:01That's Xander's book.
00:31:02Zoe, we have something bigger going on right now.
00:31:04What do you mean it's Xander's book?
00:31:05How could he...
00:31:12An anonymous source leaked the prenuptial agreement between real estate mogul Ashton Cross and
00:31:17Zoe Campbell, showing that this is a well-constructed fake marriage.
00:31:20I know that this is a sham marriage, but I'm falling for you, and I want to protect us, protect
00:31:29you.
00:31:30I don't know why would I believe you.
00:31:34I don't know if you're a psychopath, or if everything I thought I knew was wrong.
00:31:40I don't know what's going on with you.
00:31:42I am falling for you, but these people, they're going to eat you alive.
00:31:46Well, I like to think I act fast under pressure.
00:31:52Zoe, wait!
00:31:59Zoe, what are you doing?
00:32:00Good evening, ladies and gentlemen.
00:32:04I'm Zoe Cross.
00:32:05I'm sure you all know my husband, Ashton Cross.
00:32:09Now, I'm aware that many are questioning the authenticity of our marriage, and I'm here
00:32:16to confirm that it's true.
00:32:20Our marriage was a sham.
00:32:24I signed a prenup, agreeing to marry Ashton, because I thought that it would bring me wealth
00:32:30and fame, but I was wrong.
00:32:34It turned out to be so much more than that.
00:32:38He isn't just this spoiled rich kid, playboy, heartbreaker.
00:32:43Everything people say is just to sell stories.
00:32:51He's actually kinder and stronger and better.
00:32:58And I want him to know that I'm falling for him, too.
00:33:03I want him to know that I would leave you.
00:33:33I don't like the way we left things after the gala.
00:33:36I've seen that look in you before, and it scares me.
00:33:41Please call me back.
00:33:43I love you, son.
00:33:49The table's turned after Zoe Cross's heartfelt speech tonight.
00:33:54Their unique love story has made them one of the most likable celebrity couples in the city.
00:33:59Fuck!
00:34:00Fuck! Fuck! Fuck! Fuck!
00:34:06Fuck!
00:34:10Fuck!
00:34:20You see anything you like?
00:34:24Nothing I haven't seen before.
00:34:29No, that I haven't seen before.
00:34:35What did I do to deserve this?
00:34:37Let's just say it's really hot when my fake husband defends his fake wife's reputation.
00:35:06I love what you've done with the place.
00:35:09None for me.
00:35:11Since when?
00:35:14Since...
00:35:16Holy shit, you're pregnant?
00:35:18Am I gonna get to meet the guy before I leave town?
00:35:21It's complicated. He's complicated and everything's happening so fast and I'm scared that something might go wrong.
00:35:28You are happy though, right?
00:35:31I-I just worry about you living here without me now.
00:35:33Zoe, I'm-I'm fine.
00:35:36I mean, I don't know, you're just rushing into this relationship and now motherhood adds so much stress.
00:35:41I'm in a really good place now. I-I've been doing this new therapy.
00:35:45Yeah, but I mean, you're rushing into a relationship with this guy that is gonna be the father of your
00:35:50child and I haven't even met him.
00:35:52Zoe...
00:35:54He loves me.
00:35:55I know he does.
00:35:58Zoe...
00:35:59He loves me.
00:36:00I know he does.
00:36:01Yes.
00:36:04He'd be crazy not to.
00:36:18Audrey?
00:36:25No, Audrey, please!
00:36:29Zoe, are you okay?
00:36:31Zoe!
00:36:33Zoe!
00:36:34You're screaming!
00:36:35I am.
00:36:36I am.
00:36:37I am.
00:36:38I am.
00:36:39I'm fine.
00:36:40I'm fine.
00:36:46I'm fine.
00:36:47I'm fine.
00:36:48Are you sure?
00:36:54I had a sister.
00:37:01Our parents died when we were young, so, you know, growing up in orphanages and foster homes, you never really
00:37:11feel like anything belongs to you, like snacks and toys. You share everything.
00:37:19And my sister, she, um, she developed this habit that anytime she felt like something was, like hers, truly hers,
00:37:29she would, um, write her initials on it.
00:37:37She was all I had.
00:37:41And now that she's gone, I just feel like I don't have anything.
00:37:45I totally understand.
00:37:48I totally understand.
00:37:49I don't know.
00:37:50I don't know.
00:37:51I don't know.
00:37:53I don't know.
00:37:55I don't know.
00:37:56My dad was the only person alive who understood me.
00:38:00And after he died, I haven't had a real connection with anyone since.
00:38:06Anything remotely real, Xander would sabotage out of jealousy.
00:38:14Wait here.
00:38:32Now I can have something that's actually yours again.
00:38:48Hey, Chad.
00:38:49Of course.
00:38:53What can I do for you?
00:38:56I know that you are the anonymous source, and that you sent the press our marriage contract.
00:39:03And I want to make a deal.
00:39:05Why would I do something like that?
00:39:07It doesn't matter.
00:39:08And I don't care, but for whatever reason you're doing it, you're coming between Ashton and I.
00:39:14Do you mean your scam of a marriage?
00:39:16It was.
00:39:17But it's real now.
00:39:20I just want you and Ashton to repair this relationship so that we can all be happy.
00:39:26What's your angle here?
00:39:28There's no angle.
00:39:28I just...
00:39:29I'm going through my own trauma, and there are a lot of things that I wish I could go back
00:39:34and say differently to my sisters.
00:39:41I know you have a history, and I know that it's difficult.
00:39:46But it's worth making amends.
00:39:50Does he know I leaked the story to the press?
00:39:52I don't know.
00:39:53He's been through enough already.
00:40:05Whatever hurt that you've caused each other can be forgiven.
00:40:11What if the things you've done aren't forgivable?
00:40:16The past doesn't matter.
00:40:18Just what you do now matters.
00:40:22You fell for him.
00:40:24I got to know him.
00:40:27Maybe you should too.
00:40:32Maybe.
00:40:32Maybe.
00:40:48I really hope that you and your brother can work things out.
00:40:56I'd like nothing more than to get closer to you, Zoe.
00:41:10This is impossible.
00:41:19This is important, Henry.
00:41:22I need to know I can trust you on this.
00:41:24Of course you can, Xander, but why are you...
00:41:26I don't need questions, Henry. I need answers.
00:41:31Don't worry.
00:41:32I'll have the test results in 24 hours.
00:41:34Good.
00:41:35Call me when you have it.
00:41:37And remember, I was never here.
00:42:04I know that you are the anonymous source.
00:42:15I need to get rid of it all.
00:42:23All right, well, if I can't meet the guy yet, I'll at least have to tell me something about him.
00:42:27What do you guys do? Do you go dancing?
00:42:30Um, he can't really dance.
00:42:32What do you mean he can't dance? You love dancing.
00:42:34He just doesn't, okay?
00:42:37Zoe!
00:42:40I have a long meeting, and I'm taking you to lunch.
00:42:44I wasn't expecting you on since then.
00:42:46Well, can a guy take his girl out on a date?
00:42:51Yeah.
00:42:54But, I feel like there's something you're not telling me.
00:43:08You're a cheeseburger girl, aren't you? Not a lobster girl.
00:43:12What?
00:43:13I'm taking you to lunch, and I never really asked.
00:43:17Do you like cheeseburgers, or do you like lobster?
00:43:20I don't know.
00:43:22Oh, uh, sounds like we need to get some food in you pretty quick.
00:43:26Don't worry. I already made reservations at Ill Floor.
00:43:28They have cheeseburgers and lobster.
00:43:32I...
00:43:32Look, Ashton, um, there's something I have to tell you.
00:43:35Wait. How can I be so stupid?
00:43:39I keep making these reservations, and I never even asked about your feelings.
00:43:44I keep showing you my world, but you haven't even had a chance to show me yours.
00:43:49Forget the reservations. Let's go wherever you want.
00:43:53Um...
00:43:54Okay.
00:44:08No, this is so...
00:44:17Is everything okay?
00:44:19Yeah.
00:44:20It's just...
00:44:23I don't do stuff like this often.
00:44:26You wouldn't believe it, but this is my first ever picnic.
00:44:29What? Like, not even as a kid?
00:44:31Between Latin, math, leadership class, we didn't really have time to be kids.
00:44:43Come on.
00:44:44Where are we going?
00:44:46Somewhere we can be kids again.
00:44:51You want me to do this?
00:44:53Uh-huh.
00:44:54Zoe, I'm a 28-year-old man in an $8,500 suit. I'm not kidding on that. That's crazy.
00:45:02I married someone I knew less than 30 hours. I think I get to decide what's crazy or not.
00:45:06What's up?
00:45:08This?
00:45:09Yes, sit down.
00:45:13Is this your first time on a swing?
00:45:15No. Why would you think that?
00:45:17Oh my God, it is. Okay. Look, you're just going to have to trust me, okay? I'm not going to
00:45:21let you fall.
00:45:22Okay. Don't forget.
00:45:26When I was little, my sister used to push me so high, and I would just focus on the sky.
00:45:32It felt like I was flying.
00:45:35Wow.
00:45:39So, Eshin-Cross, what do you think about my world?
00:45:47It's chaotic, but wonderful.
00:45:53I'm a big fan.
00:45:54I'm a big fan.
00:45:56I'm a big fan.
00:45:57Hey, you two!
00:45:59This is clearly not the time or place.
00:46:01Children, God, get a room!
00:46:04Ha, ha, ha, ha.
00:46:06Ha, ha, ha, ha.
00:46:07Ha, ha, ha, ha.
00:46:07Ha, ha, ha, ha.
00:46:09Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha.
00:46:09Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha.
00:46:19I don't know.
00:46:58I can feel you staring at me.
00:47:02I haven't felt like this in a while.
00:47:06I feel like myself.
00:47:11Sometimes, when I look in the mirror, I don't recognize myself.
00:47:16When I see you, I see you.
00:47:22You promise?
00:47:26Cross my heart.
00:47:44Hey, I have the test results.
00:47:46It's a perfect match.
00:47:48So they're related.
00:47:50It's more than that, Xander.
00:47:51I said, perfect match.
00:47:53The two DNA samples are identical.
00:47:55They're twins.
00:48:22Good morning, Mrs. Cross.
00:48:23Is it about time?
00:48:25For cleaning?
00:48:27Yes, Mrs. Cross.
00:48:28I come every Monday.
00:48:30I can always come back.
00:48:31No, come in.
00:48:32I'll just go get a coffee.
00:48:38It won't take long, Mrs. Cross.
00:48:56I'm in.
00:49:04This is thick time, Xander.
00:49:06I'm a private detective, not a sniffer dog.
00:49:09I'm a private detective, not a sniffer dog.
00:49:47If you're thinking of having one of those, I won't object.
00:49:53You handled the crisis.
00:49:55Wow.
00:49:56I was sure you'd run away with your tail between your legs.
00:50:00But you stayed.
00:50:03But what for?
00:50:06Now, I know no one gets close to my sons without wanting something.
00:50:11The question is, what do you want?
00:50:26Voila.
00:50:31What do you want?
00:50:36You're right, Lauren.
00:50:37I think I did want something from Ashton, but I don't know that I want it now.
00:50:46I recognize that look on your face.
00:50:51It happened to me with Robert, Sander and Ashton's father.
00:50:56I fell in love with a man I hated.
00:51:01It was an arranged marriage and I didn't want to be in it.
00:51:05I got to truly know him.
00:51:08And it changed me.
00:51:13Don't stare at me like that, Zoe.
00:51:15You might think I'm a witch whose heart is made of stone.
00:51:18But I still know what love is.
00:51:28You wanted to see me?
00:51:30Take a seat.
00:51:36What's up?
00:51:37I found something and I think you should see this.
00:51:45She's Audrey's sister?
00:51:46She changed her identity, her face, just to get close to you.
00:51:51Why?
00:51:51Think about it, Ashton.
00:51:52She came into your life out of nowhere.
00:51:54Three months after Audrey's death.
00:51:56She lied to you, married you, manipulated you, shared a bed with you.
00:52:01There's only one thing that drives people this far.
00:52:05Revenge.
00:52:08I'm sorry, little brother.
00:52:10But it looks like it's time to wake up from this dream.
00:52:16You're just saying that because you want me to help run your precious company.
00:52:20Yes, I was Robert's wife.
00:52:22And his company is very important to me.
00:52:26But I'm also a mother.
00:52:30I can see Ashton cares about you more than the others.
00:52:36He has calmed his playboy antics.
00:52:41I can see he's a better person with you.
00:52:44There was one woman before, but she disappeared.
00:52:47Who knows why?
00:52:49She probably couldn't handle the pressure of being across.
00:52:52Love isn't logical, Zoe.
00:52:54And loving Ashton is probably the most illogical thing you could do.
00:52:58But that doesn't make it wrong.
00:53:04Wait.
00:53:06There was another woman?
00:53:08A serious relationship?
00:53:09What happened to her?
00:53:11I don't know, Zoe.
00:53:12You probably got sick of her like all the other girls.
00:53:16You're here now.
00:53:18She's gone forever.
00:53:19And for some reason, he likes keeping you around.
00:53:24So you're my only hope.
00:53:26Your only hope for what?
00:53:28A family legacy, Zoe.
00:53:31Xander can't give me a grandchild, but Ashton can.
00:53:35Ashton is the future of this company and this family.
00:53:39Xander's reign ended in that car accident.
00:53:43Everything is working according to plan.
00:53:46At least for Ashton.
00:54:10Ashton.
00:54:11You actually believe it?
00:54:14That I caught Audrey?
00:54:16I don't want to.
00:54:18But I see it now.
00:54:22The AC tattoo.
00:54:24The high profile lover.
00:54:27The pregnancy.
00:54:30It has to be you.
00:54:31There's no other explanation.
00:54:38Wait.
00:54:40Audrey was pregnant?
00:54:42You didn't know, did you?
00:54:44When you pushed her off the balcony?
00:54:47I never slept with Audrey.
00:54:51I know I have a reputation.
00:54:54She was with someone else.
00:54:56Stop lying to me.
00:54:58You've been lying to me!
00:55:00I wanted to tell you.
00:55:03But how do you tell someone?
00:55:05That you completely changed what you looked like to avenge your sister's death?
00:55:12You made me fall in love with you.
00:55:17And I fell in love with the man who murdered my Audrey.
00:55:21I didn't kill her, Zoe.
00:55:24I swear.
00:55:27Cross my heart.
00:55:46I really...
00:55:47wish that it wasn't you.
00:55:52Would you believe me?
00:55:54If I said I really did love you.
00:56:04Neither would I.
00:56:20Have a nice day.
00:56:21I would think I was.
00:56:24I could say my kids, too.
00:56:24I feel the pain.
00:56:25And I get up with my friends.
00:56:26Come here.
00:56:26Go.
00:56:27Go.
00:56:39Go.
00:56:41Go.
00:57:07Paternity test results.
00:57:31Xander, now's not a good time.
00:57:32Now is the perfect time.
00:57:33I know where Zoe is.
00:57:35I'll send you the address, but you better hurry if you want to say goodbye.
00:57:41What are you talking about?
00:57:43Everyone has their tipping point, Ash.
00:57:46All I need to do is give her one tiny push.
00:57:53Xander, if you hurt her, I'll kill you.
00:57:56You've already done that, Ash.
00:58:00Two years ago.
00:58:03Xander?
00:58:05Xander.
00:58:12Xander.
00:58:12It's hard.
00:58:13Aternity test results.
00:58:19A family legacy, Zoe.
00:58:22Macy.
00:58:23Xander can't give me a grandchild, but Ash do we have?
00:58:26Santa Claus.
00:58:29I like Santa Claus.
00:58:52Um, you can't really dance.
00:58:55What do you mean he can't dance?
00:58:56You love dancing.
00:58:57He just doesn't, okay?
00:59:03Audrey betrayed me.
00:59:05What are you doing here?
00:59:07And so did Ashton.
00:59:09I guess some curses do run in the family.
00:59:13Get inside.
00:59:31Happy birthday.
00:59:33Oh, Xander.
00:59:36Wow.
00:59:38This is an amazing gift.
00:59:40But I was hoping that maybe I could ask for something else.
00:59:46Anything.
00:59:47Um, well, I was thinking that maybe it was time that we take our relationship public so that we don't
00:59:55have to keep this a secret.
01:00:02You're pregnant.
01:00:04Yeah.
01:00:05We're gonna have the baby.
01:00:08I never thought I'd come to this.
01:00:11But you're happy, right?
01:00:13Of course.
01:00:16I'm so happy.
01:00:19I love you, Xander.
01:00:20I love you, Audrey.
01:00:23You're mine.
01:00:25Now and forever.
01:00:27Come on, help me out.
01:00:28Let me put this necklace on my future wife.
01:00:34Turn around.
01:00:49Xander, what are you doing?
01:00:50I never told you.
01:00:52Because I was ashamed.
01:00:54I can't have kids.
01:00:57You want to fool me into being your crippled rich husband?
01:01:00Xander, please.
01:01:01I have proof.
01:01:03It's your baby.
01:01:05Our baby.
01:01:18Get inside.
01:01:35It was you.
01:01:37You killed Audrey.
01:01:40And you're the one who sent my DNA and my passport to Ashton.
01:01:44All of it was you.
01:01:46How did you know who I was?
01:01:48The day you came and visited me in my office,
01:01:51you hugged me the exact same way she did.
01:01:55The exact same way she did.
01:02:03Sentiments can really fuck things up, huh?
01:02:06And so you're going to kill me now, too?
01:02:09No.
01:02:11I have a better plan for you.
01:02:13Zoe!
01:02:14No, no.
01:02:14Ashton, no.
01:02:15You can't come in.
01:02:16Please.
01:02:16Zoe, God.
01:02:18Take the fuck.
01:02:19Welcome to the grand finale, little brother.
01:02:22I don't know about you,
01:02:24but I'm dying to see how this all turns out.
01:02:29One more step and she's dead.
01:02:31It's not her fault what happened.
01:02:32It's mine.
01:02:33Don't worry about it.
01:02:34You're going to get yours.
01:02:35I'm going to have my payback.
01:02:37I'm going to take back everything you took from me.
01:02:40My job, my title, my reputation.
01:02:44But in order to do that,
01:02:45I've got to make sure you never get in my way again.
01:02:51You see two sisters dying in the same apartment.
01:02:55That's going to lead to suspicion.
01:02:57But if I can connect...
01:02:58Have you lost your mind?
01:02:59Let me fucking finish.
01:03:03If I can connect them to the same men...
01:03:08You killed Audrey?
01:03:10You did.
01:03:12Soon the B.C.U.O. turns out to be a maniac.
01:03:16Brutally killing his mistress and his wife.
01:03:19After he kills her, he turns himself in.
01:03:24Or puts the gun to his own head.
01:03:25I don't care.
01:03:27You choose, little brother.
01:03:29You can't get away with it.
01:03:30Of course I will.
01:03:33All I've got to do is convince the shareholders.
01:03:35You'd be surprised how quickly a bunch of lies can turn into the truth.
01:03:40But enough of that.
01:03:41We don't have all night.
01:03:43Ladies first.
01:03:47Xander, you don't have to do this.
01:03:48Shut the fuck up.
01:03:50Just shut the fuck up.
01:03:52Please.
01:03:54You're too late, little brother.
01:03:56Two years too late.
01:03:57You chose this.
01:04:00You could have lived your life with someone who truly loved you, but instead you murdered her.
01:04:03She never loved me.
01:04:04She had an AC tattoo.
01:04:06She loved you so much that she marked herself as yours.
01:04:09She betrayed me with another man.
01:04:11Did you not see the paternity test?
01:04:16It's all right here.
01:04:21If you kill me now,
01:04:23the police will come and they'll find me
01:04:25and they'll link me to Audrey
01:04:26and they'll know that you murdered her
01:04:28while she was pregnant
01:04:29with your baby.
01:04:30Fucking why?
01:04:32You should have trusted Audrey.
01:04:35But you were so blinded
01:04:37by your jealousy
01:04:38and your anger
01:04:39that you killed someone
01:04:40who truly loved you.
01:05:02You're a liar, Zoe Campbell.
01:05:05And you're dead.
01:05:09Audrey Hale
01:05:11Mother
01:05:1399.9%
01:05:15match with
01:05:19Alexander Cross
01:05:21Father
01:05:22Oh Jesus
01:05:26What have I done?
01:05:28What have I done?
01:05:31I'm so sorry, Audrey.
01:05:34I'm so sorry.
01:05:37No, no, no!
01:05:54I was so sorry, Audrey.
01:06:04Oh anybody?
01:06:07Ready?
01:06:08Ready as I'll ever be.
01:06:11Oh my gosh.
01:06:16Okay, okay, okay.
01:06:17One.
01:06:18Two.
01:06:19Three.
01:06:22We're having a girl.
01:06:23What's our girl?
01:06:25We're having a baby girl.
01:06:29I know the perfect name.
01:06:31Mm-hmm.
01:06:32Audrey.
01:06:35That's perfect.
01:06:39You wanna swing?
01:06:42Don't let me fall, okay?
01:06:44Cross my heart.
01:06:46You ready?
01:06:47No.
01:06:48Okay.
01:06:49Here you go.
01:06:54How does it feel?
01:06:56Like I'm flying.
01:06:59No one else to be.
01:07:03Mmm.
01:07:05This can't be started with me.
01:07:12Mmm.
01:07:16Mmm.
01:07:16Mmm.
01:07:16Mmm.
01:07:16Mmm.
01:07:18Mmm.
