00:00:04Miss 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.
00:00:13Is 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 is medically advisable to do so within the next six months.
00:00:26Babe, me at X Hotels, 3.02 at 7 p.m.
00:00:30Got 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.
00:00:50Oh!
00:01:05Early ovarian failure at 25.
00:01:07If someone sees this, die of embarrassment.
00:01:13Sorry.
00:01:14Are you okay?
00:01:15Yeah.
00:01:16I'm fine.
00:01:17Oh!
00:01:34Oh, my God!
00:01:36Lila!
00:01:38You said you'd be back at 7.
00:01:39Chidi, is this the big surprise you had planned for me?
00:01:45Oh, you're such a buzzkill.
00:01:48You always said you wanted to try something new?
00:01:50Come join us.
00:01:54You always said you wanted to try something new?
00:01:56Come 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?
00:02:08Sweet 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.
00:02:29Six months?
00:02:30What, 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.
00:02:47One appointment, one sperm donor, and I can have my own baby.
00:02:59Six months to produce an heir, or I lose control of Crawford Industries to my nephew.
00:03:05Everything I've built over the last decade, gone.
00:03:08Sir, the surrogate candidates have all been better thoroughly.
00:03:12I mean, Ivy League graduates, impeccable healthcare histories.
00:03:18I don't need resumes.
00:03:19I 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.
00:03:31You.
00:03:35Miss, are you here for the interview?
00:03:37Oh, um, right.
00:03:40Well, let's get started.
00:03:42Um, education background?
00:03:46Excuse me?
00:03:47And I'm going to need a complete medical history.
00:03:49Family genetic conditions, mostly.
00:03:50Um, do you exercise regularly?
00:03:53You look...
00:03:57Acceptable.
00:03:58Do 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 always so fools of themselves?
00:04:10Um, um, 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.
00:04:24Okay.
00:04:25What are you doing?
00:04:33I'm making sure this is thorough.
00:04:55I'm making sure this is thorough.
00:04:56That performance has never been a problem.
00:04:58Now that Thompson's gone, are you comfortable sharing yours?
00:05:01Oh, um, of course.
00:05:03Uh, I'm perfectly healthy, too.
00:05:05Uh, no genetic conditions.
00:05:07I get checkups regularly.
00:05:09I even started taking prenatal vitamins.
00:05:13Good.
00:05:13I 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?
00:05:24Dollars?
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.
00:05:39I could do your paperwork.
00:05:42Thompson, bring in the contracts.
00:05:53Are 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 kidding me?
00:06:04You want to keep my baby?
00:06:07Are you kidding me?
00:06:08You want to keep my baby?
00:06:10My baby!
00:06:12Is this some 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.
00:06:24You came to what?
00:06:29Oh, my God.
00:06:32I?
00:06:33I?
00:06:35I thought you were a donor.
00:06:37I thought you were a donor.
00:06:37That is why I came here to ask you all those questions about your qualifications.
00:06:42And I thought you were applying to be my surrogate.
00:06:46I am so sorry about all the confusion.
00:06:49I?
00:06:52I'm going to go.
00:06:55A million dollars.
00:06:58For caring my child.
00:07:05I want my own baby, Mr. Crawford.
00:07:08Not somebody else's.

00:17:35know what I'm going to do.
00:17:43Oh, oh, oh, oh, okay, maintain control, oh, oh, oh, that's cold, that's cold.
00:18:06Ow, sorry.
00:18:09I didn't see you.
00:18:10It's hard to notice the help.
00:18:15Ah, my brother's mysterious fiancée.
00:18:20Mrs. Crawford.
00:18:23Catherine, we're family now, supposedly.
00:18:36Tell me, dear, how did you meet Adrienne?
00:18:42Through mutual friends.
00:18:43Really?
00:18:45Mutual friends.
00:18:48Pray tell, what mutual friend would Adrienne 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.
00:19:15Well, then, next weekend is our family dinner.
00:19:21You, as Adrienne's fiancée, would be expected to attend.
00:19:27I'd be honored.
00:19:28Wonderful.
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.
00:19:56Oh, 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?
00:20:08How creative.
00:20:10It must be harder than your family watching you change a rich man.
00:20:14As a maid, maybe you should just focus on your own job.
00:20:16My business is none of your concern.
00:20:22Oh, how a plant told me.
00:20:27Stop it!
00:20:29Oh, really, I think the name is you could just marry a rich man.
00:20:32You're just trash trying to climb a social ladder.
00:20:36Hey!
00:20:37Mr. Crawford!
00:20:40She was trying to attack me.
00:20:44I'm just trying to help.
00:20:47Get out.
00:20:47I'm sorry.
00:20:48I can't explain.
00:20:49One more word and you're fired.
00:20:50Get out.
00:20:55What happened?
00:20:56Nothing.
00:20:58I just...
00:21:00I need some space.
00:21:03I'll stay in the guest room tonight.
00:21:04Lali, you don't have to.
00:21:05Please.
00:21:08I need some time alone.
00:21:09No, you stay.
00:21:11I'll sleep on the song.
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 if they weren't to get to me.
00:21:30I promise.
00:21:38Lali, what happened?
00:21:42What should I do?
00:21:55How's the happy couple today?
00:22:04This is awkward.
00:22:14No worries.
00:22:15It's just a small pinch.
00:22:16That is not small.
00:22:23It's okay.
00:22:24Over here.
00:22:25Here's that.
00:22:32It's the perfect timing for the injection.
00:22:44Mr. Crawford,
00:22:45it is your time for the sperm collection.
00:22:47Okay.
00:22:48How do we do this water equipment?
00:22:49Do we need?
00:22:50No need.
00:22:51Just head to the collection room
00:22:52and use your hand.
00:22:54Okay.
00:23:16And pretend she's not right out that door.
00:23:22Mr. Crawford,
00:23:22are you all right in there?
00:23:27I'm fine.
00:23:28I just, uh,
00:23:30need some assistance.
00:23:33Oh, do you need help?
00:23:35What?
00:23:35No, wait.
00:23:35I didn't mean...
00:23:36Are you sure?
00:23:37I can come in there.
00:23:46Okay.
00:23:47Come in.
00:24:01Do you want to help?
00:24:02Yeah, what can I...
00:24:05Oh, my God.
00:24:07You saw...
00:24:08No, no, I didn't.
00:24:10Um, I didn't.
00:24:11All right.
00:24:12Um, I'm...
00:24:14I'm...
00:24:15I'm going to go.
00:24:16I'm going to go.
00:24:17I'm going to go so far away.
00:24:20Helpful.
00:24:35Are you okay?
00:24:37Dr. Anderson said the hormone chops 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.
00:24:50Here, 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.
00:25:19I need to help not understand it.
00:25:24Pardon?
00:25:35It's true, but...
00:25:39I've got oil and things.
00:25:39I am, probably not.
00:25:40Yeah, I have a day to walk.
00:25:58Purely professional care.
00:26:15Purely professional care.
00:26:26Purely professional care.
00:26:26Adrian, wait. About this weekend.
00:26:28Sorry, emergency in Atlanta. The merger's falling apart.
00:26:31But...
00:26:31Thompson, have the jet ready in 20.
00:26:33Your family invited me to dinner.
00:26:35Now you know what?
00:26:37I can do it myself.
00:26:41I don't suppose that we could expect punctuality
00:26:45from someone who has never owned a watch in her entire life.
00:26:51I introduced him to the...
00:26:53Thompson Arons.
00:26:55Senator'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. Seamstress. She probably thinks having the proper family do her name will raise her to the top and then
00:27:15she can have her own fashion show.
00:27:16She's poor. Fine. But no sense of time either.
00:27:22I need to have a serious talk with Adrian.
00:27:24Probably just digging for a wardrobe. Can't find something to wear.
00:27:28A fashion designer scrounging around for an outfit. How ironic.
00:27:33Maybe her designs are just too embarrassing to be seen in public.
00:27:37Okay. But seriously. I mean, I do pity her, right?
00:27:43Her worthless clothing in our beautiful home. I mean, it must be incredibly humiliating.
00:27:51Go get her now.
00:27:57And I lay down everything. Every part of me.
00:28:06I'm gone.
00:28:12To everything.
00:28:14Apologies for the delay.
00:28:25My, my, my, my. Trying hard to get the part.
00:28:30James!
00:28:31Make sure none of the silver is missing after dinner.
00:28:37At least we know that Adrian's credit card is being put to good use.
00:28:45Although money can buy you designer clothing, it can't buy you a good upbringing.
00:28:52Actually, I made the dress myself.
00:28:54The little seamstress that you are. How quaint.
00:28:58At least we know who will be darning. Adrian sucks.
00:29:05You know, I wasn't brought up into wealth, but I was raised to something far more valuable.
00:29:10Integrity.
00:29:12Integrity. Is that what you call seducing your way into our family?
00:29:22How much? How much? How much would it take for you to disappear? Name your price.
00:29:29Mr. Crawford, I believe that's the difference between you and me.
00:29:32I don't think everything can be bought from me.
00:29:37Excuse me.
00:29:49Stay calm.
00:29:51You got this.
00:29:53All dressed up for me, baby.
00:30:01I need to get back to dinner.
00:30:02What's the rush?
00:30:03We're all family here.
00:30:07Almost family.
00:30:08Don't touch me.
00:30:10You used to like it when I touched you.
00:30:12Remember how shy you were? Always saying no.
00:30:14Let go of me, you creep.
00:30:16Eh?
00:30:16Careful now. One scream and everyone at dinner will find out what kind of a girl you really are.
00:30:21And her love history.
00:30:24Oh, come on.
00:30:27So cute.
00:30:34Is everything okay? You look a bit flustered.
00:30:40As I was thinking about the Wilson, would you?
00:30:46Stop it.
00:30:48Something wrong with us, Reed?
00:30:58Enough.
00:30:59No manners. No class. I don't know how you managed to seduce my son. Someone like you never deserve a
00:31:06place in this family.
00:31:09I'm the one that told her to stay here and be with me.
00:31:19Adrian.
00:31:20If anyone's unworthy in this relationship, it's me.
00:31:25You want to know how we met?
00:31:27She crashed into my life. Quite literally.
00:31:30She's brave. It's just a love letter in her hand. She confessed to me right there at the hospital. She's
00:31:37not into money. Even if someone dropped a million dollars at her feet, she wouldn't have been a drink.
00:31:42For carrying my child.
00:31:44I want my own baby, Mr. Crawford. Not somebody else's.
00:31:50And she's tough. Even after everything you did to humiliate her, she didn't walk away in anger. And she's still
00:31:57here.
00:31:58I thought you were supposed to be in Atlanta. How did you...
00:32:02Sir, two things. First, your mother's invited Mrs. Crawford to the family dinner. Second, the daddy's ready. We can go
00:32:08now.
00:32:12Cancel it, Lana.
00:32:14But, but, but, but, sir, the mer...
00:32:17Merger.
00:32:19Yes, sir.
00:32:33What a touching story, Uncle.
00:32:36Too bad it's either a complete lie or she's been playing us both.
00:32:40What are you talking about?
00:32:42We've been dating for three years.
00:32:45See?
00:32:55So, clearly she planned all this, dated me first to get to know the family, and now, well, set her
00:33:01sights higher.
00:33:03Manipulative little...
00:33:04Face it, Uncle. You're just another step on her ladder to the top.
00:33:08Who knows how many men she's slept with already, right?
00:33:13You're right.
00:33:15We did date for three years, but you were cheating on me for two of them.
00:33:22What kind of pictures do you take with your secret girls?
00:33:25Nudes?
00:33:28What kind of pictures do you take with your secret girls?
00:33:30Nudes?
00:33:31Or do you record videos?
00:33:38That was for every lie you just told me.
00:33:40You, Myla!
00:33:43How dare you, Adrian, hit my son!
00:33:48What?
00:33:49Myla.
00:33:51Where do you think you're going?
00:33:53We're not finished yet.
00:33:56Yes, we are.
00:34:02Oh, I'm sorry. I should have never left you alone with my family.
00:34:05It's okay.
00:34:08Thank you for coming back.
00:34:10And for all the kind lies you said about us.
00:34:15What happened to your hands?
00:34:17Oh, I was fixing the hemline, and I can get kind of clumsy with the needles.
00:34:22Myla, sit down, let me have a look at that.
00:34:24Okay.
00:34:32As my fiance, 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 a Crawford now.
00:34:48I'm like...
00:34:49I'm like...
00:34:54I'm like...
00:34:56I'm like...
00:34:57I'm like...
00:34:57I'm like...
00:35:01Dr. Anderson.
00:35:03Mr. Crawford.
00:35:04The psychos are ready.
00:35:06We can proceed with the implementation tomorrow morning.
00:35:08I see. Thank you.
00:35:10What is it? Is something wrong with the embryos?
00:35:13That's what I've been thinking.
00:35:14Perhaps we could approach this in a more...
00:35:18natural manner.
00:35:20That's how it's been.
00:35:27So, what do you think?
00:35:29Beautiful to let you in.
00:35:30Wow.
00:35:35Um...
00:35:35We should probably get some sleep.
00:35:37You know, the procedure.
00:35:40Oh.
00:35:41Good night, Mr. Crawford.
00:35:55You don't need to be so nervous.
00:35:56Mrs. Crawford, try to relax.
00:35:59Can I open up this window?
00:36:01It might feel a bit cold.
00:36:09That white little spot.
00:36:11Yeah?
00:36:12That's our baby.
00:36:15Really?
00:36:24I can't walk, you know.
00:36:26The doctor said to stay off your feet.
00:36:28Complete rest.
00:36:28You seem more nervous than I am.
00:36:30Hey, I'm just following the medical protocol.
00:36:48Ethan, in order to claim your inheritance, you have to find a way to break them up.
00:36:53No matter what it takes.
00:36:56Maybe finding the chance to get her back into my arms is the best way.
00:37:36You just like being in my arms.
00:37:39Remember all those late nights together?
00:37:41Did she?
00:37:49Remember all those late nights together?
00:37:52Did she?
00:38:00I was just getting some food
00:38:04Get out
00:38:07Adrian
00:38:10My stomach
00:38:15If anything
00:38:16Anything happens to me Fianchi
00:38:19Or our unborn child
00:38:20You will pay
00:38:29You've been cheating all along
00:38:32A few weeks with my uncle
00:38:33And you're carrying his child
00:38:35You want a perfect little family
00:38:37It is not going to happen
00:38:49Compton, cancel all my plans
00:38:52Everything for me
00:38:52For the next month goes to Jack
00:38:53Sir, what happened?
00:38:56You need my help?
00:38:56You can't help me on this
00:38:57Just do as I say
00:39:01You and Ethan
00:39:02Ethan, you've never gotten along
00:39:03You've never gotten along, have you?
00:39:06Why?
00:39:07You seem to care a lot about him
00:39:09No, it's not like that
00:39:11Just get some rest
00:39:13You had a rough day
00:39:14Why did you choose to believe me about Ethan?
00:39:18Just...
00:39:20I know you're not like that
00:39:22Thank you
00:39:24Just get some rest

00:39:52This is junk food
00:39:55Like these have zero nutritional value
00:39:58You can't take those
00:40:00The baby wants chocolate
00:40:02The baby wants chocolate
00:40:04And chips
00:40:05And chips
00:40:06And ice cream
00:40:07You wouldn't deny anyone
00:40:10I've been doing research
00:40:12Into optimal pregnancy nutrition
00:40:14Okay?

00:40:37The feel of it is stable
00:40:39And developing perfectly
00:40:40Really?

00:41:29Her muscles
00:41:30With your palm
00:41:42You know
00:41:43I'm actually
00:41:44Feel kind of
00:41:46Sick
00:41:47So

00:42:51Adrienne
00:42:52It's been so long
00:42:55You look exactly the same
00:43:03You look exactly the same
00:43:08And you must be the fiance
00:43:10I'm so pleased
00:43:12Adrienne's finally found someone after all this time

00:43:16It's very sweet
00:43:17I'm sorry

00:43:18Just someone who wants Adrienne's happiness
00:43:23More than anything
00:43:27Oh my god
00:43:28You two are finally back together
00:43:31Everyone
00:43:31Look who is here
00:43:33The golden couple
00:43:35I heard Adrienne Crawford was engaged
00:43:39I knew
00:43:40It must be you, Vivian
00:43:42Perfect match
00:43:44Just like a Harvard
00:43:46Where is your wedding?
00:43:55Actually, I'd like everyone to meet my fiance
00:43:58Lila Reed
00:44:00We're expecting our first child
00:44:01And yes, you're all invited to the wedding
00:44:09She's pregnant?
00:44:11I'm so sorry
00:44:13I just assumed
00:44:16My congratulations to you, brother
00:44:18I want to talk to you
00:44:20I want to talk to you
00:44:20Where is your relief?
00:44:22Fuck
00:44:31They could be so judgmental, can't they?
00:44:34Don't take it personally, dear
00:44:43They do look like the perfect couple
00:44:52Drinking
00:44:54Thought you were pregnant
00:44:57That's none of your business
00:44:59Do you even know the true Adrienne?
00:45:01I tell you he's someone who cares a lot about love
00:45:04What do you want?
00:45:08Look
00:45:11Are they the perfect couple?
00:45:13You know, he'd do anything for her
00:45:15Even save her from the pains of childbirth
00:45:21Yeah
00:45:23They've been real happy
00:45:24Ever since she got back
00:45:28Get it now, don't you?
00:45:31He's just using you to have a baby
00:45:33So that she doesn't have to
00:45:35You're so naive
00:45:40So I'm just a tool to have a baby?
00:45:49I don't want my fiancée thinking there's anything between
00:45:55I don't care if it tears me apart
00:45:58We couldn't die gone
00:46:07What do you think you're doing?
00:46:09You're pregnant
00:46:10Why are you drinking?
00:46:11Why do you care?
00:46:14It's soda, okay?
00:46:15I know what I'm doing
00:46:24What happened back there?
00:46:26Talk to me
00:46:28Lila, I'm worried
00:46:30What, so you'll talk to Ethan but not me?
00:46:33When you were having such a lovely chat with your girlfriend back there
00:46:36Did you even notice I was there?
00:46:43Lila, I'm worried about you
00:46:45Worried about me or worried about your baby?
00:46:51Worried about me or worried about your baby?
00:46:54What's that supposed to mean, babe?
00:46:56You know, I thought why you'd been so nice to me
00:46:57All of a sudden, giving me snacks and being protected
00:47:00What, because I'm carrying your child?
00:47:02Lila, why are you acting so weird since yesterday?
00:47:05Did you date Vivian?
00:47:06Yes
00:47:07And now she wants to get back together with you
00:47:08Yes
00:47:09So what, am I just some replacement for her?
00:47:12Is that why you were looking for a surrogate?
00:47:13Yes, I wanted a surrogate
00:47:15But it wasn't for Vivian
00:47:16It was...
00:47:16No, you know what, I get it
00:47:17I get it
00:47:18Follow the contract
00:47:19Have your baby
00:47:25Thompson
00:47:26Sir, sorry to bother you at night
00:47:28The Singapore merger is falling apart
00:47:29We need you here immediately
00:47:31I'm in the middle of something
00:47:32I can't...
00:47:33The board is threatening to pull out
00:47:38Okay, I'll be there
00:47:42Lila
00:47:43We need to talk about this
00:47:45As soon as I get back
00:47:47Sure
00:47:48Business first
00:47:55Sir, there have been some complications
00:47:57Explain
00:47:58Well, during your absence
00:47:59Ethan has been meeting with board members
00:48:00Suggestion that your sudden marriage plans
00:48:02May indicate that you're unstable to run the company
00:48:04Sir, several executives have questioned
00:48:06And if somebody so personally invested
00:48:08Could run the company
00:48:21Mr. Crawford
00:48:22We've been discussing
00:48:23My personal life?
00:48:25Your sudden absence is
00:48:26Let me be very clear about something
00:48:29This company
00:48:30Had a 40% profit loss
00:48:32Before I took over
00:48:34Within three years
00:48:36I tripled our market share
00:48:37Every major merger
00:48:39Every successful acquisition
00:48:40Every stock surge
00:48:42My strategies
00:48:43My execution
00:48:49So yes
00:48:50I'm getting married
00:48:52And yes
00:48:53I took some time off
00:48:54But no
00:48:55Not a single person in this room
00:48:58Has the right to question
00:48:59My commitment
00:49:00Or my capability
00:49:01Because without me
00:49:03There wouldn't even be a company to inherit
00:49:06So now
00:49:08Shall we discuss the merger
00:49:30Get out
00:49:31Lila
00:49:32There's nothing between me and Vivian
00:49:34The surrogacy is not for her
00:49:36I know what I saw
00:49:37Just get out
00:49:39I know what I saw
00:49:39I know what I saw
00:49:39I know what I saw
00:49:55What I saw
00:49:56I know what I saw
00:49:57What I saw
00:50:00I saw
00:50:04Andriyan
00:50:08What the hell were you thinking at the board meeting yesterday?
00:50:12Of doing my job.
00:50:13Your job is to follow the family's tragedy.
00:50:16Ever since she came into your life, you've been ruining, you've been undermining everything that we built.
00:50:23Leave Rila out of this.
00:50:24I don't need to stand here and listen to you.
00:50:26Oh, run along.
00:50:28The adults are talking business now.
00:50:31Don't worry, dear.
00:50:32We just need to borrow him for a moment.
00:50:35Business matters.
00:50:36I wouldn't understand.
00:50:40She's nothing but a brute mare.
00:50:43Once she delivers, you pay her off and you'll be done with it.
00:50:47Adrian needs someone who understands this world.
00:50:50Someone like me.
00:50:55Vivian joins Crawford Industries tomorrow.
00:51:00Non-negotiable.
00:51:01We'll be with you every day.
00:51:04Just like before.
00:51:05And your little pet project.
00:51:07She can stay at home with a jet tank.
00:51:09That's all she's good for.
00:51:12Get out!
00:51:14Both of you!
00:51:15Dare you!
00:51:16If you ever speak about my life like that again, I swear I will burn Crawford Industries to the ground
00:51:22before I let either of you touch it.
00:51:27Adrian, be reasonable.
00:51:29She's worth $1,000 of you.
00:51:31She's worth $1,000 of you.
00:51:32She's worth $1,000 of you.
00:51:32Tomorrow, 9 a.m.
00:51:34Vivian starts.
00:51:36No discussion.
00:51:38Is that all?
00:51:39For now, don't disappoint me again.
00:52:07Don't disappoint me again.
00:52:10I'm not going to be that girl.
00:52:16I can work on my own.
00:52:18You know, I don't need his arrangements or his dental care.
00:52:25Just a tool for a baby?
00:52:27Ah!
00:52:35So 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.
00:52:47You're not fine.
00:52:48Hospital.
00:52:50Now.
00:52:51Put me down!
00:52:52Put me down!
00:52:58Thank you for bringing me here.
00:53:01I know we've had our differences.
00:53:05I'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?
00:53:13You're telling me there's really nothing still between us.
00:53:17Ethan.
00:53:18He's using you, Lila.
00:53:19Yeah, 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?
00:53:32I'm protecting you!
00:53:34Ethan, help me!
00:53:35He found me bleeding and brought me here!
00:53:37Now you're defending him?
00:53:38I'm defending the truth.
00:53:40Sometimes people surprise you.
00:53:43I see.
00:53:44Adrian.
00:53:46I'll get the doctor.
00:53:48Adrian.
00:53:53I want a 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.
00:54:05I've already called Dr. Reynolds.
00:54:07She'll be here in 10 minutes.
00:54:08So bossy.
00:54:10No, some of us actually know how to make Lila happy.
00:54:14One of those beach dates we used to have.
00:54:16Ah, you said I was the best.
00:54:21Thompson, call in the catering.
00:54:24Yeah, they're one of the questions.
00:54:26Lila's been craving, sir.
00:54:31I 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.
00:54:46Everything's already being taken care of.
00:54:48You can defend him if he touches you, Regan.
00:54:53I'll be there.
00:54:56I didn't mean to.
00:55:05Vivian was sick.
00:55:06I 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.
00:55:14I 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.
00:55:38It's still so cold.
00:55:41Remember the first time you bought me flowers?
00:55:44Yeah, that was a long time ago.
00:55:48Adrian, we could be that again.
00:55:53Whatever game you're playing here, it won't work.
00:55:59Get out.
00:56:01I want my fiancee seeing you.
00:56:05Maybe I was wrong.
00:56:07I should have trusted him.
00:56:08I should have given him a chance to explain.
00:56:14I guess something's never changed.

01:09:34No, I can make more money
01:09:37You know, I'm kind of excited to be your sugar mommy
01:09:40I've always wanted 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?
01:10:00What 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
01:10:08Adrian, please
01:10:09I was wrong
01:10:35I don't know
01:10:42Hey.
01:10:44Hi.
01:10:46Beautiful.
01:10:50Yeah.
01:10:52It is.
01:11:00My love, were you?
01:11:03Yes.
01:11:04Of course.
01:11:15When did you get this?
01:11:17Back when I realized I'd give up everything for you.
01:11:37How's it going?
01:11:39Good.
01:11:40Just finished my last sketch.
01:11:42I didn't hear a sugar mommy just landed in another big deal.
01:11:51Yeah?
01:11:52Adrianne, 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 ten years.
01:12:13Grandfather, no.
01:12:14Please don't call Adrian.
01:12:18So you want me to come back?
01:12:21I have to ask my wife.
01:12:24What do you think, Mrs. Crawford?
01:12:31First order of business today.
01:12:34What is this?
01:12:36Starting without me.
01:12:37Perfect timing.
01:12:38I was just announcing your termination.
01:12:42The company crisis last month turns out wasn't an accident.
01:12:46Ethan deliberately sabotaged every deal.
01:12:50There's no proof.
01:12:51You misappropriated partnership funds to indulge in your own personal affairs.
01:12:55Bad investments, bad investments, shady deals, and reckless spending have led us to financial setbacks and operational setbacks.
01:13:06And it's all documented right here.
01:13:10The lawsuit's already been filed.
01:13:13What?
01:13:14You actually did this?
01:13:16No, but Grandpa, he's lying.
01:13:19It's all a lie.
01:13:22Dad, either you let me handle this my way, or I can still walk.
01:13:31Adrian.
01:13:37Mr. Crawford, the vote for new director.
01:13:44Competence is everything.
01:13:47I'm getting old, and from now on, Adrian will handle everything.
01:13:54No.
01:13:55Don't listen to him.
01:13:56Don't listen to him.
01:13:57Please.
01:13:58You're making a mistake.
01:13:59Where are you going?
01:14:03My company, you hear that?
01:14:04My fucking company, come back.
01:14:11The baby's asleep.
01:14:14Guess that means I get you all to myself.
01:14:18Don't distract me.
01:14:19I'm almost finished.
01:14:21I'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.
01:14:33Oh, it's like that.
01:14:37I 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 vows?
01:14:54Yeah.
01:14:58We practice the kiss as well.
01:15:00If you have to.
01:15:15Your father said, no fiancé by Christmas, no inheritance.
01:15:19Do you really want to give all that up?
01:15:27Everybody, this is my new girlfriend.
01:15:31You didn't tell me your parents were this rich.
01:15:35I brought you all a basket from the Miller farm.
01:15:37A bottom.
