00:00:03Miss Ri, your ovaries aren't doing their best lately.
00:00:07This could be the start of ovarian failure.
00:00:10Ovarian failure? I mean, I'm so young.
00:00:12Is this gonna mess with me having kids?
00:00:14I've always wanted to be a mom.
00:00:16If you want a child, it is medically advisable to do so within the next six months.
00:00:22Through everything, here we stand.
00:00:26Babe, me at X Hotels, 3.02 at 7 p.m.
00:00:30Got a surprise for you.
00:00:34Ethan loves me so much, maybe...
00:00:37Maybe it's not such a bad idea to have a baby sooner rather than later.
00:00:43No, I'm gonna tell him now.
00:00:45Yeah, okay.
00:00:49Oh!
00:01:04Early ovarian failure at 25.
00:01:07If someone sees this, die of embarrassment.
00:01:13Sorry.
00:01:14Are you okay?
00:01:15Yeah, I'm fine.
00:01:22I'm fine.
00:01:33Oh, my God!
00:01:35Lila!
00:01:37You said you'd be back at 7.
00:01:39Cheating?
00:01:40Is this the big surprise you had planned for me?
00:01:45Oh, you're such a buzzkill.
00:01:47You always said you wanted to try something new?
00:01:49Come join us.
00:01:54You always said you wanted to try something new?
00:01:56Come join us.
00:01:57Three years.
00:01:58You know, I wasted three years on you.
00:02:01God, I'm such an idiot.
00:02:03You know, I was planning on having a baby.
00:02:05A baby.
00:02:06A baby.
00:02:07Oh.
00:02:08Sweet art.
00:02:18You really think I'd marry you for your cheap love over legs like these?
00:02:24You know what?
00:02:26We're done.
00:02:28Six months?
00:02:29What, am I just supposed to find some random guy to get me pregnant?
00:02:43I don't need a man to have my dreams come true.
00:02:46One appointment, one sperm donor, and I can have my own baby.
00:02:58Six months to produce an heir, or I lose control of Crawford Industries to my nephew.
00:03:04Everything I've built over the last decade, gone.
00:03:08Well, sir, the surrogate candidates have all been vetted thoroughly.
00:03:11I mean, Ivy League graduates.
00:03:15Expectable health histories.
00:03:17I don't need resumes.
00:03:19I need someone who won't turn this into a media circus.
00:03:21Find me someone who knows their place.
00:03:23Someone who will quietly disappear after they give birth.
00:03:31It's you.
00:03:35Miss, are you here for the interview?
00:03:37Oh, um...
00:03:39Right, well, let's get started.
00:03:44Education background?
00:03:45Excuse me?
00:03:46Um...
00:03:47And I'm going to need a complete medical history.
00:03:48Family genetic conditions, mostly.
00:03:51Um...
00:03:51Do you exercise regularly?
00:03:52You look...
00:03:56Acceptable.
00:03:58Do you have any idea who I am?
00:04:00I'm just being thorough.
00:04:02This is about making a healthy baby, after all.
00:04:07Gosh, why are men almost so full of themselves?
00:04:10Um...
00:04:11Um, sir, I don't care if you're Brad Pitt.
00:04:14I need to know about your...
00:04:15Reproductive history.
00:04:17Sexual partners in the last six months?
00:04:19Mr Crawford, I can show her out.
00:04:21It's okay.
00:04:22Thompson, you can leave us.
00:04:24Okay.
00:04:25What are you doing?
00:04:32I'm making sure this is...
00:04:35Thorough.
00:04:39Harvard Business School.
00:04:40MBA.
00:04:41Top of my class.
00:04:43No family history of any genetic disorders.
00:04:45I work out five times a week.
00:04:47Crossfit.
00:04:48Yoga.
00:04:49Rock climbing.
00:04:50Cycling.
00:04:50As for...
00:04:53Intimate matters.
00:04:55I can assure you that performance has never been a problem.
00:04:58Now that Thompson's gone, are you comfortable sharing yours?
00:05:01Of course.
00:05:03I'm perfectly healthy, too.
00:05:05No genetic conditions.
00:05:06I get checkups regularly.
00:05:08I haven't started taking prenatal vitamins.
00:05:13I have to say, you're a perfect match.
00:05:16How about in regards to compensation, have you got a figure in mind?
00:05:20Well, I was thinking...
00:05:22Eight hundred?
00:05:23Dollars?
00:05:24Eight hundred dollars?
00:05:27Well...
00:05:28I was expecting a figure...
00:05:31Much higher than that.
00:05:32I know it's not much, but...
00:05:34You know...
00:05:36Considering the quality, and...
00:05:37And I could help out in other ways.
00:05:39I could do your paperwork, or...
00:05:42Thompson, bring in the contracts.
00:05:53Are you serious?
00:05:55All this?
00:05:56Take your time reviewing, but the key point is...
00:05:58After birth, the child stays with me.
00:06:00No contact.
00:06:01Are you...
00:06:02Are you kidding me?
00:06:03You wanna keep my baby?
00:06:07Are you kidding me?
00:06:08You wanna keep my baby?
00:06:09My baby!
00:06:11Is this some kind of sick joke?
00:06:13That's standard procedure for a surrogacy agreement.
00:06:16Surrogacy what?
00:06:17Surrogacy!
00:06:18The position that you're interviewing for.
00:06:20Interviewing? No, I came here to buy sperm.
00:06:23You came to what?
00:06:29Oh my god.
00:06:32I...
00:06:33I...
00:06:34I thought you were a donor.
00:06:36That is why I came here asking you all those questions about your...
00:06:40Qualifications.
00:06:42And I thought you were applying to be my surrogate.
00:06:45I am...
00:06:47So sorry about all the confusion. I...
00:06:52I'm gonna go.
00:06:55A million dollars.
00:06:58For carrying my child.
00:07:04I want my own baby, Mr. Crawford.
00:07:08Not somebody else's.
00:07:13Next.
00:07:21Miss Reed, your father.
00:07:23You need to come now.
00:07:33My love.
00:07:36It's gonna be okay, dad. You're gonna be okay.
00:07:39I'm not afraid to die.
00:07:43I'm just afraid...
00:07:45To leave you alone.
00:07:47Dad?
00:07:49Dad?
00:07:50Doctor!
00:07:51Help! Please!
00:08:01A doctor, my father. How is he?
00:08:04The cancer has spread aggressively without immediate treatment.
00:08:07Then treat him. Now!
00:08:09The full course of treatment will cost approximately one million dollars.
00:08:14Aristocratic etiquette training.
00:08:17Influencer.
00:08:18Bachelor in economics.
00:08:19Yeah, right. She's underage.
00:08:21Is this the last batch?
00:08:22Yes, sir.
00:08:23The brunette asked about ring sizes.
00:08:25Blonde.
00:08:26That's all she asked about.
00:08:27A good name.
00:08:28And a red hat.
00:08:29All of them just want the Crawford name.
00:08:33But none of them are suitable.
00:08:38This one was refreshing. She was real. No schemes.
00:08:46Well, Mr. Crawford, she wasn't here for servicing.
00:08:49Sometimes the best candidates aren't looking for the job.
00:08:51Oh, my God.
00:08:53A million dollars? I...
00:08:55Maybe I could get a loan?
00:09:01A million dollars.
00:09:04For carrying my child.
00:09:17Hello?
00:09:18Mila Reed.
00:09:19This is Adrienne Crawford.
00:09:27I saw her thinking.
00:09:31About the other day.
00:09:33I think I may have been...
00:09:35A little hasty.
00:09:37You're reconsidering?
00:09:38Don't look so smug.
00:09:39I just...
00:09:43I have my reasons.
00:09:45As do I.
00:09:48I could propose a modification to the original tombs.
00:09:54What kind of modification?
00:09:56Joint custody.
00:09:59As well as carrying the child you'd be.
00:10:01Its mother.
00:10:04Why would you do that?
00:10:06You're direct.
00:10:08Honest.
00:10:09No hidden agendas.
00:10:11Qualities I want in my child's mother.
00:10:15So...
00:10:17I'd really be a part of the baby's life?
00:10:19Yes.
00:10:21But just to be clear.
00:10:22You'll be parents.
00:10:24Nothing more.
00:10:25No emotional entanglements.
00:10:26No romantic expectations.
00:10:28Please don't flatter yourself.
00:10:37No separate things.
00:10:40I have my own plans.
00:10:42I have my own plans.
00:10:42Ace, if you're thinking of using,
00:10:44some random surrogate
00:10:46to produce an heir.
00:10:48Forget it.
00:10:49The Crawford name means something.
00:10:51I won't have it tainted by...
00:10:54I've already chosen my fiancé.
00:10:57What?
00:10:58I will talk about it again.
00:11:00I'm sorry.
00:11:03Did you just promote me
00:11:04from surrogate to fiancé?
00:11:08Did you just promote me
00:11:10from surrogate to fiancé?
00:11:13Didn't somebody just say
00:11:15just parents, nothing more?
00:11:18The situation requires
00:11:21adaptation.
00:11:22Is that CEO speak for
00:11:24I changed my mind?
00:11:25You'll need a convincing story.
00:11:27You'll stay at my house
00:11:28during the pregnancy.
00:11:30Okay.
00:11:32What about after?
00:11:34We'll arrange an amicable split.
00:11:36Continue co-parenting.
00:11:37I'll provide additional compensation
00:11:39for the complexity.
00:11:41No, the original match is fine.
00:11:43It's just...
00:11:47I do need it soon.
00:11:51So?
00:12:20Welcome to the family, Miss Reed.
00:12:22We were hiding.
00:12:33We were hiding.
00:12:48My whole apartment
00:12:49make it fit in this hallway.
00:12:55Well, well.
00:12:58Missed me so much
00:12:59you had to track me down.
00:13:03Couldn't get over me, huh?
00:13:06Had to follow me here
00:13:07like a lost puppy dog.
00:13:10Father, do you know I didn't...
00:13:12Wait, what are you doing here?
00:13:13What am I doing here?
00:13:14Sweetheart?
00:13:15Sweetheart, you should know better.
00:13:16This is my family's home.
00:13:21You were so mad last time I saw you.
00:13:25Now I find you wandering around.
00:13:28I finally realized what you were missing, huh?
00:13:30Get your hands off me.
00:13:33Plain hard to get.
00:13:35Now that was cute before, but now...
00:13:39Come on, baby.
00:13:41This is what you really came in for.
00:13:45Right?
00:13:49Uncle!
00:13:51What are you doing?
00:13:53Your filthy hands off of my fiancé.
00:13:58Fiancé?
00:13:59Uncle?
00:14:04Fiancé?
00:14:05No way.
00:14:07She is just...
00:14:08Shut your mouth.
00:14:10Show some respect to your future aunt.
00:14:14Come on.
00:14:15This is crazy.
00:14:18You seriously don't know.
00:14:22I won't repeat myself.
00:14:24Stay away from my fiancé.
00:14:28One more word and you can kiss your trust fund goodbye.
00:14:45Are you alright?
00:14:46Yeah.
00:14:48Yeah, I'm fine.
00:14:50I just...
00:14:53Ethan's your nephew?
00:14:54And he's your...
00:14:58Well...
00:14:58He may have been kind of...
00:15:01My boyfriend.
00:15:03Ex!
00:15:04Ex-boyfriend.
00:15:06Very ex.
00:15:06Extremely ex.
00:15:08I see.
00:15:10Thompson will bring your things up shortly.
00:15:12Thanks.
00:15:13Um...
00:15:15Where will I be staying?
00:15:16Here.
00:15:22What?
00:15:23Unless you prefer explaining to the staff why the happy couple are sleeping in separate rooms.
00:15:29Oh.
00:15:31Right.
00:15:32Fake engagement.
00:15:34Real roommates.
00:15:37This is the line.
00:15:39Don't cross it.
00:15:41Ever.
00:15:41I wasn't planning on it.
00:15:43Good.
00:15:43Didn't want you to.
00:15:45Good.
00:15:45I won't.
00:15:46Okay.
00:16:01See?
00:16:02My brilliant plan work.
00:16:07Wait.
00:16:07How did I...
00:16:10Sir, our new project in Singapore has been blooming.
00:16:13I mean, we have some meetings for you to attend to discuss our future plans with the board members.
00:16:19Sir?
00:16:24You okay?
00:16:26You okay?
00:16:26I changed.
00:16:28Jesus Christ.
00:16:29You okay?
00:16:30Yeah.
00:16:31I'm fine.
00:16:31Continue.
00:16:32Okay.
00:16:33So, the meeting.
00:16:34Singapore.
00:16:43Layla.
00:16:45Stay on your side.
00:16:50Layla.
00:16:52Layla, wake up.
00:17:07My alarm.
00:17:47Okay, maintain control.
00:17:54Oh, that's cold, that's cold.
00:18:07Sorry, didn't see you.
00:18:10It's hard to notice the help.
00:18:15Ah, my brother's mysterious fiance.
00:18:20Mrs. Crawford.
00:18:23Catherine, we're family now, supposedly.
00:18:35Tell me, dear, how did you meet Adrian?
00:18:41Through mutual friends.
00:18:42Really?
00:18:45Mutual friends.
00:18:48Pray tell, what mutual friend would Adrian possibly have in your social circle?
00:18:55Unless, of course, it was a business arrangement.
00:18:59I'm sorry?
00:19:04A girl in your position surely would have negotiated.
00:19:11The only negotiations was whether I'd take his last name or keep mine.
00:19:14Well then, next weekend is our family dinner.
00:19:20You, as Adrian's fiancee, would be expected to attend.
00:19:26I'd be honored.
00:19:28Wonderful.
00:19:29I'm sure you can find something suitable to wear.
00:19:37Helen, make sure to take good care of your mistress.
00:19:52Excuse me, Miss Reed.
00:19:54Need to clean.
00:19:56Oh, of course.
00:19:57Let me just get my stuff out of your way.
00:20:02Is this what you're wearing to the family dinner?
00:20:07How creative.
00:20:09Must be harder than your family watching you change a rich man.
00:20:13As a maid, maybe you should just focus on your own job.
00:20:15My business is none of your concern.
00:20:21Oh!
00:20:22How clumsy of me.
00:20:26Stop it!
00:20:28Really?
00:20:29The thing is you could just marry a rich man.
00:20:32You're just trash trying to climb a social ladder.
00:20:36Hey!
00:20:36Mr. Crawford!
00:20:40She was trying to attack me.
00:20:44I'm just trying to help.
00:20:46Get out.
00:20:46I'm sorry.
00:20:47I can't explain.
00:20:48One more word and you're fired.
00:20:50Get out.
00:20:54What happened?
00:20:56Nothing.
00:20:57I just...
00:20:59I need some space.
00:21:02I'll stay in the guest room tonight.
00:21:04Lali, you don't have to.
00:21:05Please.
00:21:07I need some time alone.
00:21:09No, you stay.
00:21:11I'll sleep on the salt.
00:21:20I miss her so much, daddy.
00:21:23Don't worry about me, okay?
00:21:25As long as we can get you better,
00:21:28I will let the words get to me.
00:21:29I promise.
00:21:38Lali, what happened?
00:21:42What should I do?
00:21:54How's the happy couple today?
00:22:04This is awkward.
00:22:13No worries.
00:22:14It's just a small pinch.
00:22:16That is not small.
00:22:22It's okay.
00:22:24Over here.
00:22:25Here's that.
00:22:31It's the perfect timing for the injection.
00:22:43Mr. Crawford.
00:22:44It is your time for the sperm collection.
00:22:47Okay.
00:22:47How do we do this?
00:22:48What equipment do we need?
00:22:49No need.
00:22:50Just head to the collection room
00:22:52and use your hand.
00:22:53Okay.
00:23:15And pretend she's not right out the door.
00:23:21Mr. Crawford, are you all right in there?
00:23:26I'm fine.
00:23:28I just need some assistance.
00:23:32Oh, do you need help?
00:23:34No, wait.
00:23:35I didn't mean...
00:23:36Are you sure?
00:23:37I can come in there.
00:23:41Um...
00:23:45Okay.
00:23:46Come in.
00:23:59So...
00:24:00Want to help?
00:24:01Yeah, what can I...
00:24:04Oh, my God.
00:24:06You thought...
00:24:08No, no, I didn't.
00:24:09Um, I didn't...
00:24:11I...
00:24:11Um...
00:24:12I'm...
00:24:13I'm...
00:24:14I'm gonna go.
00:24:16I'm gonna go.
00:24:17I'm gonna go so far away.
00:24:20Helpful.
00:24:34Are you okay?
00:24:36Dr. Anderson said the hormone shots might hurt a little, but...
00:24:40You're in pain.
00:24:41It's just some discomfort.
00:24:42It'll pass.
00:24:43I'll be okay.
00:24:49Here, this should help.
00:25:08Um, well, the hormone shots were part of the agreement.
00:25:12So, any resulting discomfort is technically a work-related issue.
00:25:16And as your employer, I have a duty of care.
00:25:21To be continued...
00:25:22That's high.
00:25:32Well, I'm going to leave you alone.
00:25:34Hush.
00:25:34Oh, my God.
00:25:38I love this.
00:25:38I'm gonna try my friends.
00:25:39I love you.
00:25:40I love you.
00:25:40I love you.
00:25:45I love you.
00:25:47I love you.
00:25:48I love you.
00:25:48I love you.
00:25:57PURELY PROFESSIONAL CARE
00:26:25ADRIAN WAIT, ABOUT THIS WEEKEND
00:26:27Sorry, emergency in Atlanta. The merger's falling apart.
00:26:30But...
00:26:31Thompson, have the jet ready in 20.
00:26:33Your family invited me to dinner. Now you know what? I can do it myself.
00:26:41I don't suppose that we could expect punctuality from someone who has never owned a watch in her entire life.
00:26:51I introduced him to the Thompson Arons. Senator's daughter.
00:26:56I don't know why he picked this gold digger from God knows where.
00:27:01Ethan, what did you say that she does? A fashion designer?
00:27:06Worse.
00:27:08Seamstress.
00:27:09She probably thinks having the Crawford family do her name will raise her to the top and then she can
00:27:14have her own fashion show.
00:27:16She's poor. Fine.
00:27:19But no sense of time either.
00:27:21I need to have a serious talk with Adrian.
00:27:24Probably just digging for a wardrobe. Can't find something to wear.
00:27:27A fashion designer scrounging around for an outfit. How ironic.
00:27:32Maybe her designs are just too embarrassing to be seen in public.
00:27:36Okay.
00:27:37But seriously.
00:27:39I mean, I do pity her, right?
00:27:42Her worthless clothing and our beautiful home.
00:27:46I mean, it must be incredibly humiliating.
00:27:50Go get her now.
00:27:55And I lay down
00:27:58And I'm racing
00:28:02Every part of me
00:28:05I'm young
00:28:13Apologies for the delay.
00:28:24My, my, my
00:28:25Trying hard to get the part
00:28:29James
00:28:31Make sure
00:28:32None of the silver is missing after dinner
00:28:37At least we know that
00:28:40Adrian's credit card is being put to good use
00:28:45Although money can buy you designer clothing
00:28:48It can't buy you a good upbringing
00:28:51Actually, I made the dress myself
00:28:53The little seamstress that you are
00:28:56How quaint
00:28:57At least we know who will be darning
00:29:00Adrian sucks
00:29:04You know, I wasn't brought up into wealth
00:29:06But I was raised with something far more valuable
00:29:10Integrity
00:29:12Integrity
00:29:12Is that what you call
00:29:15Seducing your way into our family?
00:29:22How much?
00:29:24How much would it take
00:29:25For you to disappear?
00:29:27Name your price
00:29:28Mr. Crawford
00:29:29I believe that's the difference between you and me
00:29:31I don't think everything can be bought
00:29:36Excuse me
00:29:48Stay calm
00:29:51You got this
00:29:52All dressed up for me, baby
00:30:00I need to get back to dinner
00:30:01What's the rush?
00:30:02We're all family here
00:30:07Almost family
00:30:07Don't touch me
00:30:09You used to like it when I touched you
00:30:11Remember how shy you were?
00:30:13Always saying no
00:30:13Let go of me, you creep
00:30:15Right?
00:30:16Careful now
00:30:17One scream and everyone at dinner
00:30:18Will find out what kind of a girl you really are
00:30:21And her love history
00:30:34Is everything okay?
00:30:36You look a bit flustered
00:30:40As I was saying
00:30:41About the world's future
00:30:45Stop it
00:30:47Something wrong with me
00:30:58Enough
00:30:59No manners
00:30:59No class
00:31:01I don't know how you managed to seduce my son
00:31:03Someone like you
00:31:05Never deserve a place in this family
00:31:08I'm the one that told her to stay here and be with me
00:31:18Adrian
00:31:19If anyone's unworthy in this relationship, it's me
00:31:24You want to know how we met?
00:31:26She crashed into my life
00:31:28Quite literally
00:31:30She's brave
00:31:31It's just a love letter in her hand
00:31:33She confessed to me right there at the hospital
00:31:36She's not into money
00:31:37Even if someone dropped a million dollars at her feet
00:31:39She wouldn't have been a dollar
00:31:42For carrying my child
00:31:44I want my own baby, Mr. Crawford
00:31:48Not somebody else's
00:31:50And she's tough
00:31:51Even after everything you did to humiliate her
00:31:53She didn't walk away in anger
00:31:55And she's still here
00:31:56I thought you were supposed to be in Atlanta
00:31:59How did you...
00:32:02Sir, two things
00:32:03First, your mother's invited Mrs. Crawford to the family dinner
00:32:06Second, the daddy's ready
00:32:07We can go now
00:32:12Cancel Atlanta
00:32:13But, but, but, sir
00:32:14Is there the murder?
00:32:17Murder
00:32:18Yes, sir
00:32:32What a touching story, Uncle
00:32:34Too bad it's either a complete lie
00:32:37Or
00:32:37She's been playing us both
00:32:39What are you talking about?
00:32:42We've been dating for three years
00:32:45See?
00:32:54So
00:32:55Clearly she planned all this
00:32:57Dated me first
00:32:58To get to know the family
00:32:59And now
00:32:59Well, set her sights higher
00:33:02Manipulative little
00:33:03Face it, Uncle
00:33:04You're just another step on her ladder to the top
00:33:08Who knows how many men she's slept with already, right?
00:33:12You're right
00:33:14We did date for three years
00:33:16But you were cheating on me
00:33:17For two of them
00:33:21What kind of pictures do you take with your secret girls?
00:33:24Nudes?
00:33:30Nudes?
00:33:30Or do you record videos?
00:33:37That was for every lie you just told
00:33:40You, Lila
00:33:42How dare you, Adrian, hit my son?
00:33:48Lila
00:33:51Where do you think you're going?
00:33:53We're not finished yet
00:33:56Yes, we are
00:34:02I'm sorry
00:34:02I should have never left you alone with my family
00:34:04It's okay
00:34:06Thank you
00:34:08Thank you for coming back
00:34:10And for all the kind lies you said about us
00:34:14What happened to your hands?
00:34:16Oh, I was fixing the hemline
00:34:18And I can get kind of clumsy with the needles
00:34:21Lila
00:34:21Sit down, let me have a look at that
00:34:24Okay
00:34:28Sit down, let me have a look at that
00:34:30Okay
00:34:33As my fiancé, you have access to the family accounts
00:34:37I expect you to use them
00:34:39I didn't want to assume
00:34:43You're Crawford now
00:34:48I'm like
00:35:01Dr. Anderson
00:35:01Mr. Crawford
00:35:03The zygots are ready
00:35:05We can proceed with the implementation tomorrow morning
00:35:08I see
00:35:08Thank you
00:35:10What is it?
00:35:11Is it something wrong with the embryos?
00:35:12So I've been thinking
00:35:14Perhaps we could approach this in a more
00:35:17Natural manner
00:35:19Let's help
00:35:26So
00:35:27What do you think?
00:35:28Can't afford to let you in
00:35:30Wow
00:35:33Um
00:35:34We should probably get some sleep
00:35:36You know, the procedure
00:35:38Oh
00:35:41Good night

00:50:07Adrian, what the hell were you thinking at the board meeting yesterday?
00:50:11I was doing my job.
00:50:13Your job is to follow the family's strategy.
00:50:16Ever since she came into your life, you've been ruining, you've been undermining everything
00:50:21that we built.
00:50:22Leave Violet out of this.
00:50:23I don't need to stand here and listen to you.
00:50:25Oh, run along.
00:50:27The adults are talking business now.
00:50:30Don't worry, dear.
00:50:32We just need to borrow him for a moment.
00:50:34Business matters.
00:50:35Who wouldn't understand?
00:50:39She's nothing but a brute mare.
00:50:42Once she delivers, you pay her off and you'll be done with it.
00:50:46Adrian needs someone who understands this world.
00:50:49Someone like me.
00:50:54Vivian joins Crawford Industries tomorrow.
00:50:59Unnegotiable.
00:51:01We'll be with you every day, just like before.
00:51:33And your little pet project.
00:51:34Vivian starts.
00:51:36No discussion.
00:51:37Is that all?
00:51:39For now, don't disappoint me again.
00:51:54Stop it.
00:51:55Stop checking.
00:51:56I was independent before him.
00:51:58I didn't need someone to create a meal plan for me or hold me while I sleep.
00:52:07No.
00:52:09I'm not going to be that girl.
00:52:15I can work on my own.
00:52:17You know, I don't need his arrangements or his dental care.
00:52:24I'm just a tool for a baby.
00:52:34So Lila and Adrian's relationship is on the rocks.
00:52:38Well, if it isn't the perfect opportunity to gain her trust and trick her back to me.
00:52:44Lila.
00:52:46I'm fine.
00:52:46You're not fine.
00:52:48Hospital.
00:52:49Now.
00:52:50Put me down.
00:52:52Put me down.
00:52:53Put me down.
00:52:58Thank you for bringing me here.
00:53:00I know we've had our differences.
00:53:04I'm like...
00:53:06Now you used to look at me like this.
00:53:08So sweet and sincere.
00:53:10No.
00:53:11Why not?
00:53:13You're telling me there's really nothing still between us?
00:53:16Ethan.
00:53:17He's using you, Lila.
00:53:19Yeah, I know I've messed up, but seeing the way he treats you, it's tearing me apart.
00:53:28Ethan, you...
00:53:30Adrian, stop!
00:53:31What are you doing?
00:53:32I'm protecting you!
00:53:33Ethan, help me!
00:53:34He found me bleeding and brought me here.
00:53:36Now you're defending him?
00:53:38I'm defending the truth.
00:53:40Sometimes we have to surprise you.
00:53:42I see.
00:53:44Adrian.
00:53:45I'll get the doctor.
00:53:47Adrian.
00:53:53I want full blood work, fetal monitoring, and get the OBGYN down here.
00:53:59Sir, it's just a minor cough.
00:54:02I want to get a complete prenatal checkup.
00:54:04I've already called Dr. Reynolds.
00:54:06She'll be here in 10 minutes.
00:54:07So bossy.
00:54:09You know, some of us actually know how to make Lila happy.
00:54:13One of those beach dates we used to have.
00:54:16You said I was the best.
00:54:20Thompson.
00:54:21Call in the catering.
00:54:23Yeah, the one of the questions.
00:54:26Lila's been cravings, so...
00:54:28Medium fatty cut.
00:54:30No, what's up?
00:54:31I didn't say those.
00:54:33The prenatal vitamins I researched should arrive shortly.
00:54:36They're custom formulated for a Lila flood type and genetic makeup.
00:54:46Everything's already being taken care of.
00:54:48You can defend him if he touches you, Reagan.
00:54:52I'll be there.
00:54:55I didn't mean to.
00:54:57Hello?
00:54:57What?
00:55:04Vivian was sick.
00:55:06I gave her a key and let her rest at our place.
00:55:09Overworked, they say.
00:55:11I'm cleaning up your company's mess.
00:55:14I have meetings.
00:55:16Well, cancel them.
00:55:18You're going to take care of her now.
00:55:20No negotiation.
00:55:22Well, either you show proper respect to the woman I chose for you,
00:55:27or I'll call an emergency board meeting.
00:55:34You can skip the performance, Vivian.
00:55:38It's still so cold.
00:55:41Remember the first time you bought me flowers?
00:55:44Yeah, that was a long time ago.
00:55:47Adrian, we could be that again.
00:55:53Whatever game you're playing here, it won't work.
00:55:59Get out.
00:56:01I don't want my fiance seeing you here.
00:56:04Maybe I was wrong.
00:56:06I should have trusted him.
00:56:08I should have given him a chance to explain.
00:56:13I guess some things never change.

01:02:31Shit.
01:02:37Vivian!
01:02:40Oh, Adrian!
01:02:41What are you doing here?
01:02:43I was just looking for you.
01:02:45You know, Adrian, if it's an heir you want, you can make one right now.
01:02:53Poor Lila doesn't have to know. She's already asleep.
01:02:57It'll be our little secret.
01:03:02Here. In the hallway.
01:03:04Wherever you want, darling.
01:03:07What if someone sees us?
01:03:09Scared?
01:03:11I know someone.
01:03:13Private.
01:03:19Can't risk being interrupted, can we?
01:03:25Adrian? Adrian!
01:03:28Enjoy the storage closet!
01:03:30Adrian!
01:03:46How'd it go?
01:03:47Just drive.
01:03:48Guessed as much.
01:03:50Don't worry. I've got a new plan now.
01:03:53Dr. Anderson will tell us if there's a surrogate involved.
01:04:00Everything looks perfect. The baby is developing perfectly.
01:04:03Really?
01:04:04Really! You have officially entered the stable station.
01:04:07As long as you are gentle, intimacy is perfectly safe.
01:04:13Oh.
01:04:15Listen to your buddies, and then...
01:04:17Thanks, Doc. Thanks.
01:04:28Mr. Anderson.
01:04:33Mr. Anderson.
01:04:34Let's talk about the scene Sinclair's...
01:04:37arrangement.
01:04:38Was it a contract surrogacy?
01:04:40Mr. Herringham, I can't discuss the patient information.
01:04:45I hear the hospital is opening up a new wing.
01:04:48It would be a shame if your name mysteriously disappeared from the best.
01:04:55Won't it?
01:04:59Shall we talk about that arrangement now?
01:05:12Oh, my God!
01:05:22Surrogacy!
01:05:24Surrogacy!
01:05:28Five generations.
01:05:30Four for dignity.
01:05:32All trashed by a tabloid scandal.
01:05:36A surrogate!
01:05:37You used a surrogate to gain the inheritance?
01:05:41If that's what you wanted, Adrian, why didn't you just say it?
01:05:45Why drag the family's name through the mud?
01:05:48This 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 were in love.
01:06:03Your lives stop here, Uncle.
01:06:08Grandfather, the files.
01:06:10Proving their contract.
01:06:12Lila isn't his fiancée.
01:06:14She's just a surrogate who got hired to bear an heir.
01:06:19Medical files from Crawford Fertility Center.
01:06:23They show Ms. Reed undergoing IVF treatment.
01:06:28And was generously compensated for it.
01:06:32A surrogate! How vulgar!
01:06:35You dare deceive me with this filth?
01:06:38Dragging the Crawford name through the mud?
01:06:41I'll deal with it.
01:06:43Alright.
01:06:44How?
01:06:45God knows what else you've schemed.
01:06:49Actually, I might have a solution.
01:06:52Replace Adrian's fiancée with me.
01:06:56Let Lila take the fall in the media.
01:06:59She's just a desperate gold digger who wants to bear an heir,
01:07:02just so she can become queen.
01:07:05Shut your mouth.
01:07:10Fine!
01:07:13Marry Vivian now,
01:07:14where you give up your shares and get out!
01:07:18Adrian,
01:07:19I always get the man you want.
01:07:25Well, if he does this,
01:07:26he could still get inheritance.
01:07:28No rush.
01:07:29Let's get them into trouble.
01:07:32He's fought too hard to lose everything now.
01:07:36He'll do it.
01:07:38I'll give it all up.
01:07:40The company.
01:07:42My inheritance.
01:07:45Everything.
01:07:47But not Lila.
01:07:50Not my wife.
01:07:51The only woman I've ever loved.
01:07:54And we're getting married.
01:07:56Officially.
01:07:58Publicly.
01:08:09Cyan!
01:08:10You want to give up everything for her!
01:08:12Give up your inheritance.
01:08:14Everything goes too easy.
01:08:18Adrian!
01:08:19You're giving up your inheritance just for her?!
01:08:22Are you insane?!
01:08:24I would never choose anything over my wife.
01:08:27Not ever.
01:08:28And I would never choose you.
01:08:30You'll regret this.
01:08:35Go on.
01:08:37Sign this.
01:08:39Walk away from your legacy.
01:08:41So you've had this planned all along?
01:08:49No.
01:08:50Hey, hey, wait.
01:08:52No.
01:08:54I'm not worth giving up your future.
01:08:57You are my future.
01:08:59You're not everything.
01:09:02You were natural
01:09:15Let's go
01:09:26Adrian
01:09:28Hey, what's wrong?
01:09:31Don't tell me you only love me for my CEO status and my mommy
01:09:34No, I can make more money
01:09:37You know, I'm kind of excited to be your sugar mommy
01:09:39I always want a sugar mommy
01:09:43Wait, yeah, I was going to grab somebody from the car
01:09:56What are you doing here?
01:09:58Why?
01:09:58Why? What does she have that I don't?
01:10:01Why do you always choose her?
01:10:03It's simple
01:10:05I love her
01:10:07Not you
01:10:07Adrian, please
01:10:09I was wrong
01:10:16Oh, oh, oh, oh
01:10:43Hi...
01:10:45Beautiful.
01:10:50Yeah, it is.
01:10:55What are you doing?
01:10:59Well done.
01:11:00It's perfect.
01:11:00So here we go.
01:11:01Milo, were you?
01:11:02Yes, of course.
01:11:14When did you get this?
01:11:17Back when I realized I'd give up everything for you.
01:11:36How's it going out?
01:11:38Good.
01:11:39Just finished my last sketch.
01:11:41Your sugar mommy just landed another big deal.
01:11:50Yeah?
01:11:51Adrian, come back to the Crawford family.
01:11:55Come back to your position and your inheritance.
01:12:04What do you mean you're canceling the contract?
01:12:07We've been partners for 10 years.
01:12:12Grandfather, no.
01:12:13Please don't call Adrian.
01:12:17So you want me to come back?
01:12:20I have to ask my wife.
01:12:24What do you think, Mrs. Crawford?
01:12:31First order of business today.
01:12:34What is this?
01:12:35Starting without me.
01:12:37Perfect timing.
01:12:38I was just announcing your termination.
01:12:41The company crisis last month turns out wasn't an accident.
01:12:46Ethan deliberately sabotaged every deal.
01:12:49There's no proof.
01:12:50You misappropriated partnership funds to indulge in your own personal affairs.
01:12:55Bad investments, shady deals, and reckless spending have led us to financial setbacks and operational setbacks.
01:13:05And, and it's all documented right here,
01:13:10the lawsuit's already been filed.
01:13:21Mr. Crawford, the vote for new director.
01:13:43Competence is everything.
01:13:46I'm getting old.
01:13:48And from now on,
01:13:50Adrian will handle everything.
01:13:53No.
01:13:54Don't listen to him.
01:13:56Don't listen to him.
01:13:56Please.
01:13:57You're making a mistake.
01:13:59Where are you going?
01:14:02My company, you hear that?
01:14:04My fucking company, come back.
01:14:10The baby's asleep.
01:14:13I guess that means I get you all to myself.
01:14:17Don't distract me.
01:14:19I'm almost finished.
01:14:21I'm designing my wedding dress.
01:14:23Incredible.
01:14:25I might hire you to design my tux.
01:14:29You know, I think I'm going to have to check my schedule.
01:14:33Oh, it's like that.
01:14:37I still can't believe we're getting married.
01:14:40Ever since you crashed into me at the hospital, I haven't been able to get you out of my head.
01:14:44And soon I'll be able to love you openly and officially for the rest of my life.
01:14:51Uh, practicing your vows?
01:14:53Yeah.
01:14:57We practice the kiss as well.
01:15:00If we have to.
01:15:14Your father said,
01:15:16No fiancé by Christmas.
01:15:17No inheritance.
01:15:18Do you really want to give all of that up?
01:15:27Everybody, this is my new girlfriend.
01:15:30You didn't tell me your parents were this rich.
01:15:34I brought you all a basket from the Miller farm.
01:15:37A bottom.
