00:00:01Your overall health looks fine, but your AMH levels are low.
00:00:06Meaning your ovarian reserves are below average for your age.
00:00:12Will that make it hard to get pregnant?
00:00:14Not always, but if you want children, I would recommend you start trying soon.
00:00:20Soon? How soon?
00:00:23Ideally within three months.
00:00:27Oh my god.
00:00:30Sweetheart.
00:00:31Don't cry.
00:00:34Having you was the best thing I ever did.
00:00:38Mom.
00:00:39I just hope you'll have children of your own one day.
00:00:43After I'm gone.
00:00:45Yeah.
00:00:47I promise.
00:00:50I love you so much.
00:00:52I love you, sweetie.
00:00:53I've always wanted kids.
00:00:57Maybe it's time.
00:01:18I'm so sorry.
00:01:20I'm so sorry.
00:01:22I think that's fine.

00:24:27Something I should know about.
00:24:31What happens between Claire and me is none of your goddamn business.
00:24:35So, put your damn mouth shut if you want to get your job.
00:24:39Uh, gang?
00:24:41Uh, gang?
00:24:54Claire?
00:24:55Claire?
00:24:57Hey?
00:25:00I'm sorry.
00:25:02Here.
00:25:09You've been under a lot of stress, which can reduce ovarian function.
00:25:12Probably why conception hasn't happened.
00:25:14You need rest, moderate exercise, and a better mood before the next artificial insemination.
00:25:20So, it's my fault.
00:25:22Hey, no, no, no.
00:25:24No, none of this is your fault.
00:25:27All right, we still have time, and...
00:25:39We're in this together, okay?
00:25:45Light movement helps.
00:25:47Walks, swimming, yoga, anything to keep your brain slow and present.
00:25:54You know, I bet you're a gritty bomb at yoga for the shop.
00:26:01Great.
00:26:03Ladies, raise your hands slowly.
00:26:07Gentlemen, support your partners.
00:26:09Breathe together.
00:26:18Relax, ladies.
00:26:22Don't worry, I'm not going to try anything.
00:26:24Just relax.
00:26:28Now, gently lean back.
00:26:31Your back rest against your partner's chest.
00:26:34And feel their support.
00:26:35Feel the connection, their grounding presence.
00:26:40It's okay.
00:26:41Trust me.
00:26:48You know, you're kind of irresistible when you're zen.
00:27:13Now, take your partner in your arms and slowly lean back together.
00:27:19Feel that stretch in your spine, and breathe through it.
00:27:37Ready?
00:27:38Yeah.
00:27:44Nice.
00:27:46Oh, my God.
00:27:47You're good.
00:27:47Yeah.
00:27:49Whoa!
00:27:51Oh!
00:27:53Oh, my God.
00:27:53I am so sorry that that was an accident.
00:27:57Lucky me.
00:27:59He's just a contract's partner.
00:28:02So why the hell is my heart doing backflips?
00:28:07Okay.
00:28:18Um, is that carrot your mortal enemy?
00:28:22Because you've turned it into confetti.
00:28:24You try perfectly slicing for prenatal nutrition.
00:28:28I'm a novice under pressure, okay?
00:28:31You're actually trying to ace a pregnancy diet?
00:28:33But that's oddly endearing.
00:28:40Okay.
00:28:41Let me take over before that carrot presses charges.
00:28:44Uh-uh-uh.
00:28:44Not a chance.
00:28:50Your job is to sit there.
00:28:53Anywhere than me.
00:28:54All right?
00:28:55You supervise.
00:28:56I stress.
00:28:57Okay.
00:29:06What?
00:29:07Wait, did you cut yourself?
00:29:08No, it's just a scratch.
00:29:11Here, let me see.
00:29:17There.
00:29:21Better?
00:29:22Better?
00:29:23Better?
00:29:24Better?
00:29:26Better?
00:29:27Better?
00:29:35Well, this part wasn't in the contract, but...
00:29:38Hell.
00:29:39I don't want her to stop.
00:29:47Whoa!
00:29:49Hope I'm not crashing the honeymoon.
00:29:53Chris!
00:29:54What?
00:29:55What, your baby brother needs an appointment to come home now?
00:30:02And who is this beautiful mystery?
00:30:07Hi, I'm Claire.
00:30:08Chris.
00:30:09Ethan's younger brother.
00:30:11Just back from London.
00:30:14Okay.
00:30:17She's my wife.
00:30:19Now, feel free to make yourself at home, but don't overstay your welcome.
00:30:22Perfect.
00:30:23The family's all here.
00:30:25So, Chris, I was hoping that you can shadow Ethan at Nova to learn the ropes you're starting tomorrow.
00:30:33What?
00:30:34Come on, you guys.
00:30:35You are both adults.
00:30:37You gotta stop this sibling war.
00:30:39Come on, big brother.
00:30:40I mean, it's just a little family favor.
00:30:43You own the whole empire now.
00:30:45Fine.
00:30:47But don't be late.
00:30:53Oh, and Claire.
00:30:55I can't wait to work with you.
00:30:58Hey.
00:30:59It's not cool.
00:31:08Look, Claire, listen to me.
00:31:11My brother, he's always been so competitive.
00:31:17I mean, anything I have, he wants.
00:31:21And I know he's, he's not here by accident.
00:31:25So, please, promise me that you'll stay away from him.
00:31:31Yeah.
00:31:32Yeah, of course.
00:31:50You're right.
00:31:51They're in a three-month contract marriage.
00:31:54Ethan tries to keep it under wraps, but I found the cap surveillance footage.
00:31:57Send it your way.
00:32:00Received.
00:32:01Oh, Ethan.
00:32:03You've always been the crown prince.
00:32:06The heir.
00:32:08The one with the spotlight on him.
00:32:10But me, I was born to spare.
00:32:13So, big bro, once again, you have something that I don't.
00:32:18Let's see who wins this round.
00:32:27Everybody, this is Chris.
00:32:31Oh, God.
00:32:34The newest member of the design team.
00:32:36Hello, colleagues.
00:32:37I cannot wait to learn from each of you.
00:32:41Chris is hot.
00:32:43He is CEO's younger brother.
00:32:45A total golden boy.
00:32:48And a walking HR violation.
00:32:50If I can't land the CEO, the younger Mr. Reid is still pretty sweet to you.
00:32:56Well, well, um, good luck with that.
00:33:02Oh, and Claire, I believe I will be reporting to you.
00:33:07And I think I'll be in great hands.
00:33:10Uh, uh, uh, yeah.
00:33:18Welcome aboard, Chris.
00:33:21She's more than just a deal to you, isn't she?
00:33:25Well, you never did like Sharon.
00:33:36Yes, the Wilson sketches are approved.
00:33:39You can go ahead and send those over to the account this afternoon.
00:33:42Do you strike me as an Americano kind of girl?
00:33:48Thanks.
00:33:49You know, I think we should get lunch sometime.
00:33:52Just us together.
00:33:53It could be fun.
00:33:55My brother has always been so competitive.
00:33:58I mean, anything I have, he wants.
00:34:01So please, promise me that you'll stay away from him.
00:34:07Sorry.
00:34:08I just don't think I'll have time today.
00:34:12You're not scared of me already, are you, Claire?
00:34:14I mean, come on, I'm harmless.
00:34:16I don't bite.
00:34:17Of course not.
00:34:19I just don't think...
00:34:20Relax.
00:34:22I know your marriage to my brother is fake.
00:34:27How?
00:34:28How do you know that?
00:34:31No one keeps secrets from me, Claire.
00:34:34Although, I am a little curious about the kind of woman that suddenly gets my workaholic brother to tie the
00:34:40knot.
00:34:40Even if it is a fake knot.
00:34:44What do you want?
00:34:46Lunch.
00:34:47Conversation.
00:34:48If I say no, and he spills the truth,
00:34:51Ethan loses everything,
00:34:53and if I say yes,
00:34:56fine.
00:34:58Just lunch.
00:34:59Great.
00:35:00I will see you downstairs.
00:35:09Claire.
00:35:11My office.
00:35:12Now.
00:35:14I'll be right there.
00:35:17She really does mean something to you.
00:35:19Which means,
00:35:20this just got far.
00:35:27Claire, what did my brother say to you?
00:35:30Nothing.
00:35:32Just...
00:35:33work stuff.
00:35:38Okay.
00:35:39Good.
00:35:40Claire.
00:35:41Please.
00:35:42Just stay away from him.
00:35:44My brother has spent his entire life trying to ruin everything that I have.
00:35:51But I won't let him ruin this.
00:35:55Should I tell him about Chris asking me to lunch?
00:36:01Ethan, uh...
00:36:02Hey, boss.
00:36:03Meeting's about to start.
00:36:05Uh, okay.
00:36:06I'll be right there.
00:36:07Alright, I gotta go.
00:36:08Um.
00:36:09I'll talk to you after, okay?
00:36:13One meal.
00:36:14I can handle it.
00:36:15Ethan's so busy.
00:36:34Chris?
00:36:38It's the same car as last time.
00:36:43Wait,
00:36:44Is Chris the perfect gene guy?
00:36:48After you.
00:36:49Uh,
00:36:50isn't this Ethan's car?
00:36:52It is.
00:36:54No fucking...
00:36:56fucking way.
00:36:59She actually landed
00:37:01a rich golden boy.
00:37:03Problem?
00:37:07Are you worried that your fake hubby
00:37:09won't catch you with the wrong brother?
00:37:11What are you talking about?
00:37:20Just kidding.
00:37:22We're just grabbing lunch,
00:37:23Miss Miller.
00:37:37No wonder she got director.
00:37:39Anne had the guts
00:37:40to make a bet with me?
00:37:42It's because you were all cozy
00:37:43with the CEO's brother.
00:37:46Hmm.
00:37:47You know what?
00:37:49Time to take down
00:37:50the office sweetheart.
00:38:04There it is.
00:38:05Proof.
00:38:07Claire is sleeping
00:38:08with the CEO's brother.
00:38:11No wonder she jumped the ranks.
00:38:14CEO in the boardroom,
00:38:15brother in the bedroom.
00:38:16He's just going to streets.
00:38:24Boss.
00:38:25Uh, boss?
00:38:31Go!
00:38:33Get out!
00:38:36And that will be all.
00:38:39Right away.
00:38:43Sorry, I'm gonna run to the bathroom.
00:38:46It's a free country.
00:38:52Come on, Claire.
00:38:54Come on, answer me.
00:38:58I can't wait to see the look
00:39:00on your face.
00:39:05Now, please read our face number.
00:39:08Look, she's not picking up.
00:39:11Chris,
00:39:12you better fucking answer.
00:39:21Hello?
00:39:23Chris,
00:39:23where the fuck
00:39:24did you take her?
00:39:25Yeah, it's this nice
00:39:27little restaurant.
00:39:28It's called
00:39:28Les Jardins Secrets.
00:39:31It's a lovely place.
00:39:33Bye-bye.
00:39:37Fuck!
00:39:38Les Jardins Secrets.
00:39:40Step on it.
00:39:41On it.
00:39:42Fuck you, Chris.
00:39:51You seem
00:39:52kind of sad.
00:39:53Which is surprising
00:39:54because most women,
00:39:55they can't help
00:39:56but to smile around me.
00:39:59I'm fine.
00:40:00Look, Chris,
00:40:02we've had lunch now,
00:40:04so please,
00:40:05can you keep
00:40:05the contract
00:40:06thing to yourself?
00:40:08It's funny
00:40:09that this marriage
00:40:10is real enough
00:40:11to have a baby,
00:40:13but not real enough
00:40:14to matter.
00:40:15I mean,
00:40:16do you really love them?
00:40:32you bitch.
00:40:35Touch her,
00:40:36and I swear
00:40:37it'll be the last thing
00:40:38you'll ever do.
00:40:42I guess
00:40:44I do like him
00:40:46a little.
00:40:48Cool.
00:40:49There's some hesitation.
00:40:51I'm not so sure
00:40:52if you're so sure.
00:40:56And how exactly
00:40:57does that concern you?
00:40:58Because if it's not love,
00:41:01maybe you
00:41:02just chose
00:41:03the wrong brother.
00:41:04You
00:41:04just chose
00:41:05the wrong brother.
00:41:07Ew!
00:41:08Are you trying
00:41:08to be funny
00:41:09right now?
00:41:09I am your sister-in-law,
00:41:12your brother's wife.
00:41:13I'm leaving.
00:41:15Why don't you
00:41:16sit back down?
00:41:18What are you doing?
00:41:30Careful.
00:41:32What?
00:41:34Nothing.
00:41:35You just have
00:41:36a little something
00:41:37right here.
00:41:41I guess
00:41:42that's just
00:41:42what happens
00:41:42when you're
00:41:43too focused
00:41:43on eating.
00:41:44Are you insane?
00:41:46No.
00:41:47I'm just
00:41:48testing out
00:41:49a theory,
00:41:49seeing how
00:41:50he would react.
00:41:52Who?
00:42:07what the fuck
00:42:08are you doing?
00:42:13Ethan,
00:42:14what are you
00:42:15doing here?
00:42:17Relax.
00:42:18I was just
00:42:19fucking taking
00:42:20care of Claire.
00:42:22Oh, yeah?
00:42:23Whatever sick,
00:42:24twisted game
00:42:25you're playing,
00:42:26leave my wife
00:42:27out of it.
00:42:30Come on, Claire.
00:42:31Let's go.
00:42:32Come on.
00:42:33Come on.
00:42:34Come on.
00:42:35Come on.
00:42:35Come on.
00:42:36Come on.
00:42:36Come on.
00:42:37Oh, Ethan.
00:42:39You've fallen
00:42:39for her,
00:42:40haven't you?
00:42:40That only makes
00:42:41me wonder more
00:42:41because now
00:42:42it's my turn
00:42:43to win.
00:42:44Come on.
00:42:45Oh, you're
00:42:45hurting me.
00:42:47Yeah?
00:42:47I just told
00:42:48you to stay
00:42:48away from my
00:42:49brother.
00:42:49Why are you

00:42:50with him?
00:42:51Why are you
00:42:51at lunch
00:42:52with him?
00:42:52Because he
00:42:53found out

00:42:54contract marriage.
00:42:55So what?
00:42:57Are you

00:43:03feelings for him?
00:43:04Are you

00:43:06I'm trying

00:44:31Congratulations, Mrs. Reed. Your hormone levels are back to normal. You're cleared for insemination next week.
00:44:38Oh my god. Thank you so much, Doctor.
00:44:43Ethan?
00:44:44Ethan. We're good to go. We can finally try again next week.
00:44:48Oh my god. Oh my god. Oh my god.
00:44:55Claire, I am so sorry I ever did.
00:45:06Good morning, Nova's very own sperm queen. How's the donor search going?
00:45:10Is the CEO's little brother premium enough for you?
00:45:13What is your problem, Ryder?
00:45:15I caught you cozying up to Chris Reed.
00:45:20I'm curious to see how Ethan's going to react when he finds out you've been playing both brothers.
00:45:27You don't know what you're talking about.
00:45:34And what exactly am I looking at? Two co-workers showing up to the office?
00:45:38No wonder you never deliver anything good. You're too busy playing paparazzi all day.
00:45:43Cut the crap, Claire. You strut around here like you earned that title.
00:45:46You think you're better than the rest of us, but guess what?
00:45:48You are nothing but an incubator with broken parts.
00:45:52Does Chris even know that your eggs are defective?
00:45:57You say one more word and I will sue you for defamation.
00:46:03You filthy bitch.
00:46:11Try me and you're done.
00:46:16Claire. Hey. Hey. Are you okay?
00:46:22Fine.
00:46:23Boss, I am telling you the truth.
00:46:25Claire was only getting close to Chris because of a bet.
00:46:27Okay? She's not this sweet innocent angel.
00:46:29She is just playing him.
00:46:30One more slanderous word towards Claire and you're fired.
00:46:34For fuck's sake. She's just an employee.
00:46:36Why are you protecting her like this?
00:46:38Because...
00:46:39Because he is my future girlfriend's boss.
00:46:44Oh and Claire, I got these gorgeous flowers for you.
00:46:52Sweetie, are you okay?
00:46:55No.
00:46:58You don't know what the fuck you're doing, Chris.
00:47:01I do.
00:47:03I'm trying to correct Claire.
00:47:11Uh...
00:47:17Keep your filthy hands off her. She's a married woman.
00:47:21Wait, what? Claire is married?
00:47:24To who?
00:47:36Careful, big bro.
00:47:38I mean, you should really, really think this through.
00:47:41Once the truth gets out, well, we both know how mom's temper is.
00:47:46If she gets angry and takes away your inheritance, well, the reed group might just fall in my hands.
00:47:55I'm her husband.
00:47:59How is that even possible?
00:48:01How is that even legal?
00:48:03Wow!
00:48:04I can't believe you actually did it.
00:48:06You chose love over legacy.
00:48:08I mean, I am impressed!
00:48:11But...
00:48:12You missed out...
00:48:14The juicy bit.
00:48:15Why don't you tell everyone that your marriage is just a three-month contract?
00:48:19A business proposition!
00:48:21I warned you to stay the fuck out of our relationship, Chris.
00:48:29Cool.
00:48:30Off.
00:48:31Big bro.
00:48:33Your relationship has an expiration date!
00:48:35And once it's over, she'll be mine.
00:48:38Yeah.
00:48:39Funny.
00:48:40Because I won't let you get close enough to steal her from me.
00:48:53That's enough!
00:48:54Both of you, stop!
00:48:56Stop it!
00:48:58Claire!
00:49:03Claire!
00:49:07Both of Reed brothers are fighting over Claire.
00:49:09What has she got that we don't?
00:49:11Her bedroom skills, of course.
00:49:14That's probably how she earned my promotion.
00:49:16How did I not see this sooner?
00:49:18She is sleeping her way to the top.
00:49:20What is left?
00:49:21Shut your mouth!
00:49:23If word of this gets out, I will end you.
00:49:28Claire!
00:49:29Claire!
00:49:30Let go of me!
00:49:31I'm sorry.
00:49:33I screwed up.
00:49:34I was impulsive.
00:49:35I didn't stop to think about how you might feel going public with our relationship.
00:49:39Save it, Ethan.
00:49:40I'm done.
00:49:42I can't do this anymore.
00:49:44No.
00:49:45No, please.
00:49:46Please don't go.
00:49:47I only did it because I was scared of losing you to Chris.
00:49:50I mean, that's why I rush to tell everybody that you're my wife.
00:49:54But what about the consequences?
00:49:56If your mother finds out we're in a fake relationship, you'll lose everything.
00:50:00And Chris and I are not a thing.
00:50:02Okay?
00:50:10Hey.
00:50:11Listen to me.
00:50:12Alright, before you came into my life, all I cared about was my work and my inheritance.
00:50:18But I need you to know that as long as you're here with me, nothing else matters.
00:50:26Ethan.
00:50:28No.
00:50:29Don't worry.
00:50:30Alright.
00:50:32I'm here with you.
00:50:34Whatever comes our way, we'll face it together.
00:50:37Okay?
00:50:38Okay.
00:50:55Sophia, if you don't hop on a plane right now, your ex, he might find us happily ever after somewhere
00:51:01else.
00:51:02What?
00:51:05That workaholic.
00:51:06I'm falling for someone.
00:51:08No.
00:51:09No.
00:51:09Uh-uh.
00:51:10Not possible.
00:51:11What?
00:51:20Book me the next flight to New York!
00:51:28I don't care who she is.
00:51:32Ethan Reed...
00:51:33is mine.
00:51:39Your cooking's actually gotten a lot better.
00:51:42Oh good.
00:51:48Doctor, just confirmed.
00:51:51We're good to go.
00:51:52Our appointments tomorrow.
00:51:58Perfect.
00:51:59We'll leave first thing in the morning.
00:52:00Go where?
00:52:02Exactly.
00:52:02Hopefully.
00:52:15Sophia?
00:52:17You're back?
00:52:21Ethan!
00:52:22I miss you so much!
00:52:24I miss you!
00:52:31Um...
00:52:32Well...
00:52:33Claire, this is Sophia.
00:52:35An...
00:52:35old friend.
00:52:38Sophia, this is...
00:52:39my wife.
00:52:41It's nice to meet you.
00:52:44Pleasure!
00:52:45Though I'm not just a friend...
00:52:50I'm Ethan's ex.
00:52:54I...
00:52:54We broke up two years ago.
00:52:56It's nothing.
00:52:56We were so in love back then.
00:52:59I thought you'd wait.
00:53:00You know, if Chris hadn't told me,
00:53:02I'd still believe you were mine.
00:53:04If I remember correctly,
00:53:05you left.
00:53:06To pursue a career halfway across the world.
00:53:09I thought that's what you wanted.
00:53:14Well...
00:53:15Actually, she's my pick for brand manager.
00:53:18I mean, that won't be a problem for you.
00:53:20Right, brother?
00:53:22What's the matter, Ethan?
00:53:24You don't want me back?
00:53:26Well, I'm afraid that decision's not entirely up to me.
00:53:29That's up to the board to decide.
00:53:32No!
00:53:33It's funny.
00:53:34What a coincidence.
00:53:35It...
00:53:36It just so happened to have their signatures, right?
00:53:39Here.
00:53:39No.
00:53:53Well...
00:53:54If that's what the board wants,
00:53:56fine.
00:53:56We'll see if you're up to the task.
00:54:11Why did you tell me about Ethan and Claire?
00:54:14What's your angle?
00:54:15I want Claire and you want Ethan.
00:54:18We can help each other out.
00:54:19Help each other how?
00:54:21You?
00:54:22You can blow up their little fairy tale.
00:54:24And me?
00:54:25We'll carve you a path straight to Ethan.
00:54:28Everyone wins.
00:54:30Let the games begin.
00:54:34Hey.
00:54:35What are you doing?
00:54:37Look, Claire, I'm...
00:54:39I'm sorry if tonight upset you.
00:54:43But...
00:54:44Would it be bad if...
00:54:45I was a little glad if it did?
00:54:48Because that would mean that you were jealous.
00:54:51And jealousy mean you care.
00:54:55Don't flatter yourself.
00:55:02Claire, she's from my past.
00:55:05Alright, but...
00:55:07You...
00:55:09Are my life.
00:55:11And...
00:55:13Once you're finally pregnant...
00:55:16We can make it official.
00:55:18A wedding.
00:55:19A life together.
00:55:21Wait...
00:55:22Wait, what did you just say?
00:55:24I don't want a contract marriage with you.
00:55:28I want forever.
00:55:30Are you serious?
00:55:32And when my mom's back from Europe, we'll tell her too.
00:55:36Look, our marriage won't just be for show.
00:55:39Anymore.
00:55:41Then...
00:55:42Then...
00:55:42Yes.
00:55:43Of course.
00:55:56We could...
00:55:58Try for that baby ourselves.
00:55:59We could.
00:56:03Oh my god.
00:56:10Oh my god.
00:56:22Ethan.
00:56:24Ethan.
00:56:25Ethan.
00:56:25What?
00:56:25Your phone.
00:56:26Damn it.
00:56:33Hello?
00:56:34Ethan.
00:56:35I fell down the stairs.
00:56:36Can you call?
00:56:38I'm really hurt.
00:56:40I can't move.
00:56:42Sophia.
00:56:43Is there not anybody else you can call?
00:56:45Ethan.
00:56:46I don't know anyone else in this city.
00:56:49Who else am I supposed to call?
00:56:51Besides, are we not still friends?
00:56:53Please.
00:56:54No.
00:56:54Fine.
00:56:55Yeah.
00:56:56I'll be over in just a few.
00:57:00Hey.
00:57:01Hey, what happened?
00:57:04It's Sophia.
00:57:05She apparently fell and hurt herself and...
00:57:07Well, she doesn't really know anybody in the city, so...
00:57:10I just need to go over and check on her.
00:57:13Do you want me to come?
00:57:15No.
00:57:16No, no, no.
00:57:16You stay here and rest.
00:57:37Sophia, you said you were hurt.
00:57:39Yummy.
00:57:43I did hurt my ankle.
00:57:45It still hurts when I walk.
00:57:47See?
00:57:51No.
00:57:52You lied.
00:57:54Well, I had to see whether you still cared.
00:57:56I was stupid to think you'd wait around forever, but...
00:58:00Seeing you now...
00:58:02I realized what I gave up.
00:58:04What we had.
00:58:05It's over.
00:58:07I'm married now.
00:58:10Married?
00:58:11It's just a contract.
00:58:13What?
00:58:14You think she loves you?
00:58:16She's in it for the genes.
00:58:19And...
00:58:19Honestly, even...
00:58:21Who could blame this?
00:58:24No, enough!
00:58:26Wait!
00:58:27Don't go.
00:58:28Please, stay one night.
00:58:29That's all I ask.
00:58:33If you keep this up, we won't even be friends.
00:58:37All right.
00:58:39Friends, then.
00:58:41At least that way, I still get to see you.
00:58:48The latest male contraceptive.
00:58:50Not FDA approved yet, but it can instantly deactivate sperm.
00:58:56Differentiate.
00:59:03Oh, Ethan.
00:59:05No way I'm letting that bitch, Claire, carry your child.
00:59:11You know you should rest up.
00:59:13Heal that ankle.
00:59:14Don't want you to be late tomorrow.
00:59:16Wouldn't dream of it.
00:59:17Mm-hmm.
00:59:20She can borrow you.
00:59:22But you're mine.
00:59:23To the grave.
00:59:31Hey, they took your sample ages ago.
00:59:34I mean, why haven't they called me in?
00:59:36Do you think something's wrong?
00:59:39Claire.
00:59:40Come on.
00:59:41Stop overthinking.
00:59:43All right?
00:59:44You know, they're probably just swamped with patients.
00:59:46I mean, stuff like this happens all the time.
00:59:48Yeah.
00:59:50See?
00:59:51Doctor, can I go in now?
00:59:53Not quite, Mrs. Reed.
00:59:54We've just received the results.
01:00:00Unfortunately, Mr. Reed's sperm motility is very low.
01:00:03It's currently not viable for fertilization.
01:00:05What?
01:00:07How is that even possible?
01:00:09What?
01:00:09No, that can't be right.
01:00:11I'm perfectly healthy.
01:00:12My sperm is fine.
01:00:13Test me again.
01:00:13I understand this is very upsetting, but the numbers don't lie.
01:00:16I suggest a retest in two weeks.
01:00:19In the meantime, rest, nutrition, hydration.
01:00:26No, this doesn't make any sense.
01:00:30Hey.
01:00:31Maybe you're just working too hard?
01:00:35You were there for me when this all started, and now it's my turn.
01:00:39We'll get through this.
01:00:41Together.
01:00:43Right. Together.
01:00:57So we plan on having this whole thing up by 2026.
01:01:01I mean, we have an additional 5,000 rooms on the left wing that we have-
01:01:0610 minutes.
01:01:09Ah.
01:01:14Everyone.
01:01:15This is Sofia Turner.
01:01:17Effective immediately, she will be taking over as head of the branding division.
01:01:30Oh, pleasure. I'm looking forward to working with you all.
01:01:44She walks in late, and she's already manager. What's her background? I mean, it's giving Claire a 2.0.
01:01:49Check her socials. CEO's axe. The only one he ever went public with. Daughter of some investment tycoon. Wonder why
01:01:58they broke up.
01:01:59So the queen's come back to take her throne, huh? I guess that means the temp wife position isn't getting
01:02:04renewed. Nice.
01:02:12They look like the perfect couple.
01:02:22Your contract marriage with Ethan. What? One month left?
01:02:28What's your point?
01:02:30Do you ever wonder if Ethan only married you to scare me back into his life?
01:02:38What?
01:02:39I twisted my ankle last night.
01:02:42Oh!
01:02:43He freaked. It was like his world was ending.
01:02:47He promised me he wouldn't let you get pregnant.
01:02:51And, oh, didn't your little fertility trip to the hospital fail?
01:02:57How did you know that?
01:03:00Because I gave him a glass of wine with a little something extra.
01:03:06And let's just say his swimmers are on strike.
01:03:09I watched him drink it and totally enjoy it.
01:03:14Something extra.
01:03:15Wait.
01:03:16Are you telling me you gave him a drug that kills sperm?
01:03:19And he knew about it?
01:03:22Obviously. Oh, my God. You're so much more naive than I thought.
01:03:27Claire.
01:03:28Babe.
01:03:29Honey.
01:03:31Cinderella only becomes a princess in the fairy tales.
01:03:34And we ain't in one.
01:03:36So, why don't you go pack your things?
01:03:39Because Mrs. Reed, that's my name.
01:03:45Bye.
01:03:46Bye.
01:03:49Bye.
01:03:55I should trust Ethan.
01:03:57Sophia probably just settled up to mess with my head.
01:04:00One call to the doctor.
01:04:02I'll prove she's lying.
01:04:04Dr. Young?
01:04:05It's Claire.
01:04:06I just had a quick question.
01:04:09Um, Ethan's sperm motility came back low.
01:04:13Could that ever be caused by medication?
01:04:17Given Mr. Reed's health history, this result is unusual.
01:04:21It's quite possible he was exposed to something that impairs sperm function.
01:04:26Thank you, doctor.
01:04:31She wasn't lying.
01:04:51Hey.
01:04:53What?
01:04:57What are you doing down here all by yourself?
01:05:02Is everything okay?
01:05:06You've kind of seemed a little down lately.
01:05:16Just ask if there is an explanation.
01:05:23Ethan, the night you went over to Sophia's, did you drink anything?
01:05:28Uh.
01:05:30Yeah, wine.
01:05:32Why?
01:05:34So it's true?
01:05:36He drank that wine on purpose, fully aware?
01:05:39Maybe he never wanted to get me pregnant.
01:05:43Does you even know what that meant?
01:05:45Does you even know what that meant?
01:05:49Meant?
01:05:50What do you mean?
01:05:53Defensive.
01:05:59Why the hell is she asking me this?
01:06:02To me, it just meant I set boundaries with her.
01:06:04We're just friends now, right?
01:06:05Um, well, I mean, I guess, yeah, yeah, I know what that meant.
01:06:09It's all true.
01:06:11It's all true.
01:06:11I was naive, thinking we could have a future.
01:06:14Sophia was right.
01:06:15Maybe it's time we start putting some distance between us.
01:06:24What is going on in that little head of yours?
01:06:29Nothing.
01:06:31I'm fine.
01:06:35Oh, um, so I'm flying out tomorrow with Sophia.
01:06:40She just landed a major contract.
01:06:43And so our hospital date's gonna have to wait.
01:06:47But I'll be back as soon as I can.
01:06:51No need.
01:06:52Our contract's almost up anyway.
01:06:55Exactly.
01:06:56Finally won't have that thing looming over our heads.
01:07:11Sophia.
01:07:13Um, I'll just take this or I'll be right back.
01:07:17Hey.
01:07:19So that's it?
01:07:20You couldn't even wait for the contract to end?
01:07:23To be with her again?
01:07:25Fine.
01:07:27I won't stand in your way.
01:07:38Well, our three-month bet is hitting the final stretch.
01:07:41Belly's still flat.
01:07:42CEO is off on a trip with his ex.
01:07:44Ouch.
01:07:45Are you feeling the heat yet?
01:07:46The whole clock is ticking.
01:07:49You lose and we want your confession loud and clear.
01:07:53I'm a dried up old hag.
01:07:58Don't break out the confetti quite yet.
01:08:00I still have one month left.
01:08:03Oh, TikTok.
01:08:14Pleasure doing business with you.
01:08:15The pleasure is mine.
01:08:17Likewise.
01:08:21Boss, you cut things short and bumped your flight.
01:08:24Trying to get home to Mrs. Reed.
01:08:27You know it.
01:08:28She's ovulating tomorrow.
01:08:29So?
01:08:30Gonna take the first flight back I can.
01:08:32And when she's expecting...
01:08:35Boom.
01:08:37Ha ha.
01:08:39Got a new surprise for her.
01:08:40Wow, that is so stunning.
01:08:44Mind if I take a closer look?
01:08:47Sure.
01:08:59Um, what are you doing?
01:09:01Um, sorry.
01:09:03It's so beautiful.
01:09:04I just...
01:09:05I needed a picture.
01:09:06I couldn't resist.
01:09:09Put it back in the box.
01:09:11Now?
01:09:11Yeah.
01:09:12Right now?
01:09:13Yeah.
01:09:15Right now?
01:09:18Am I really going to lose to Ryder?
01:09:25Oh!
01:09:26Careful.
01:09:27You're going to flood the kitchen.
01:09:31So you finally found out that my brother's lying to you, haven't you?
01:09:37Mind your own business.
01:09:48He only married you for the inheritance.
01:09:50He was never going to actually get you pregnant.
01:09:52He's too far in with Sophia.
01:09:55Leave him, Claire.
01:09:56He's not worth it.
01:09:58And you're going to be my white knight?
01:10:00You're only talking to me because I'm a pawn in your little sibling game.
01:10:05Look.
01:10:05Yeah.
01:10:07Maybe at first, of course, I wanted to steal you away from him.
01:10:12But then, I saw your heart.
01:10:16I saw your generosity.
01:10:18I saw your work ethic.
01:10:20And I actually cared.
01:10:23Do you think I am dumb or something?
01:10:26You and Ethan really are brothers.
01:10:28Different jerks.
01:10:30Same old script.
01:10:32You want a kid, right?
01:10:36My papers.
01:10:37I have a perfect sperm count.
01:10:39Well, I can help you.
01:10:41You don't have to put all your eggs into one basket.
01:10:44Yeah.
01:10:46So you'd rather lose the bed
01:10:48and be the joke that everyone thought you were?
01:11:01Oh, God.
01:11:02I don't know.
01:11:03Chris would make the perfect donor,
01:11:05but why can't I feel at peace about it?
01:11:19Pretty, huh?
01:11:21Ethan proposed.
01:11:27He, he proposed to her.
01:11:31See, I told you.
01:11:33My brother, he only ever saw you as a business strategy.
01:11:37But me, I can take real care of you.
01:11:40No lies, no contracts.
01:11:44All right.
01:11:47I'll take the deal.
01:11:49I will use your sperm.
01:11:51You got it!
01:11:54There's one thing I need to take care of first.
01:12:05You're so much more naive than I thought.
01:12:08He promised me he wouldn't let you get pregnant.
01:12:11Though I'm not just a friend.
01:12:14I'm Ethan's ex.
01:12:17Pretty, huh?
01:12:19Ethan proposed.
01:12:29Ethan, this time, it's really over.
01:12:37Ethan, this time, you're finally gonna lose.
01:12:43Ethan, this time, you're so much more.
01:12:46Ethan, this time, you're so much more.
01:12:47Ethan, this time, you're so much more.
01:12:49Ethan, this time, you're so much more.
01:12:51Claire!
01:12:54Your turn.
01:12:56Doctor's waiting.
01:13:05If you need anything, just yell for me.
01:13:12Miss Miller, this way.
01:13:14We're ready for the procedure.
01:13:20Knock yourself up, champ.
01:13:29Claire.
01:13:32Where are you?
01:13:35You really don't know how to pick up your phone.
01:13:41Donor agreement?
01:13:46Byron, to the hospital, now.
01:13:49On it.
01:13:56Miss Miller, are you ready?
01:13:59Yes, doctor.
01:14:01I am.
01:14:16Like that.
01:14:36Relax.
01:14:37It'll be over soon.
01:14:45Checkmate, big brother.
01:14:47Claire!
01:14:49Claire!
01:14:50You!
01:14:53Where is she?
01:14:55You're too late.
01:14:57She's already in there getting inseminated
01:14:59by my...
01:15:01Come on.
01:15:10Claire!
01:15:11Claire!
01:15:13Claire!
01:15:14Claire!
01:15:15Ethan!
01:15:16Calm down.
01:15:17This is a hospital.
01:15:19Let's go.
01:15:19Ow!
01:15:23Claire.
01:15:26Claire!
01:15:26Claire!
01:15:27Why did you accept Chris as your donor?
01:15:29Talk to me.
01:15:30Ethan!
01:15:31We are done.
01:15:33What?
01:15:34Claire.
01:15:36We had plans.
01:15:38I mean, aren't we in this together?
01:15:41What changed?
01:15:42Hands off, Ethan!
01:15:44She is my girlfriend now.
01:15:47She's my wife!
01:15:51Oh, maybe not for long.
01:15:54She signed the divorce papers.
01:15:56And soon, you will too.
01:15:58And the both of you will be nothing but strangers.
01:16:04What?
01:16:05No, you signed with...
01:16:07No.
01:16:08No, he's lying.
01:16:10Tell me he's lying, Claire.
01:16:27No, I won't sign without an explanation.
01:16:33Oh, come on, Ethan.
01:16:35She just wanted your perfect genes.
01:16:39What, you thought she really loved you?
01:16:42No, I don't believe that.
01:16:45Claire, I need to hear it from you.
01:16:48You want an explanation?
01:16:51Fine.
01:16:52You married me for your inheritance.
01:16:54At the same time, you were messing around with Sophia, letting her drug you.
01:16:58I mean, a sperm-killing drug, Ethan, really?
01:17:01And you think I didn't know that you proposed to her?
01:17:04You are just pretending to care now because you're scared I'll find out and break the contract.
01:17:08Am I right?
01:17:10Sperm-killing?
01:17:12Proposed?
01:17:13What the hell are you talking about, Claire?
01:17:15It's over, Ethan.
01:17:18I mean, don't you get it?
01:17:19She already signed the divorce papers.
01:17:22And Claire over here, she's carrying my child.
01:17:31Stop it!
01:17:32Don't hurt him.
01:17:33Chris has nothing to do with this.
01:17:34What?
01:17:36You're protecting him now?
01:17:38Are you okay?
01:17:40Look, Claire, I'm not letting you leave me until you give me an explanation.
01:17:46What medication are you talking about?
01:17:48I've never taken anything like that in my life and proposed to Sophia.
01:17:50That's just insane.
01:17:52What the fuck?
01:17:53Literally, Claire, you are the only person I have ever wanted to marry.
01:18:05Didn't you already give that ring to Sophia?
01:18:08What?
01:18:08Uh, dramatic much?
01:18:11I literally just tried it on, like, for a second, like, for funsies.
01:18:15Okay, that is not what she said.
01:18:18She posted this online.
01:18:20Said you proposed to her.
01:18:21Paul said they were in custom made for you.
01:18:23He wrapped up the business deal early just to catch the next flight back.
01:18:28Sophia insisted on trying it.
01:18:30That's all it was.
01:18:31Okay, get out of here, Byron.
01:18:34Please.
01:18:35Claire, you have to listen to me.
01:18:37I would never hurt you.
01:18:40Okay, but...
01:18:41What about the night you went over to Sophia's?
01:18:44What?
01:18:44You knew she drugged your drink and you drank it anyways.
01:18:48That's why your tests came back like they did.
01:18:51You never wanted a baby with me.
01:18:54Wait.
01:18:55What?
01:18:58You fucking drugged my drink?
01:19:01You fucking drugged me and set me up.
01:19:04No wonder we couldn't try.
01:19:05Why would you do that?
01:19:07Be drugged is a strong word, but I could not bear to see you end up with Claire.
01:19:11That bitch doesn't deserve you.
01:19:17You are the bitch, Sophia.
01:19:19Manipulative and pathetic.
01:19:21Oh, you filthy little...
01:19:25Ethan.
01:19:26Defend her all you want.
01:19:28Does not change the fact that she could be carrying Chris's child right now.
01:19:33And now the two of you, never gonna happen.
01:19:36That's right.
01:19:38She...
01:19:38She chose me.
01:19:40So stay out of my relationship.
01:19:42Chris.
01:19:43You knew about Sophia's plan, didn't you?
01:19:45Or have you two been scheming together this entire time?
01:19:50Doesn't matter.
01:19:52I mean, you're already carrying my child.
01:19:54And you signed the divorce papers.
01:19:57You and the whole Reed Empire is now mine.
01:20:01Oh.
01:20:02Oh.
01:20:02And best of all...
01:20:04I finally beat you, brother.
01:20:06Oh, and it feels so good!
01:20:09You pathetic asshole.
01:20:11I don't belong to you.
01:20:12You can go rot in hell.
01:20:14Bastard!
01:20:19Look, Claire, listen to me.
01:20:21All right?
01:20:22I don't care whose child you're carrying or who gets the inheritance.
01:20:26The only thing I care about is that I get to spend the rest of my life with you.
01:20:38I can give you a child, okay?
01:20:45You don't want this bitch to be the one who...
01:20:47Shut up!
01:20:48Wait, don't listen to that.
01:20:50You are the only thing that matters to me.
01:20:52No, Ethan.
01:20:54You should care.
01:20:55Because my future child, your inheritance...
01:21:00It's all yours.
01:21:03What?
01:21:07I never used Chris's sample.
01:21:10I couldn't go through with it.
01:21:13Wait, can you...
01:21:15Oh, my God.
01:21:17Oh, my God.
01:21:19Relax.
01:21:20It'll be over soon.
01:21:23No.
01:21:25I can't go through with it.
01:21:28Not until I know the truth.
01:21:34I'm sorry.
01:21:35No, it's okay.
01:21:38Miss Miller, please don't book the procedure unless you're sure.
01:21:42Some of us value our time.
01:21:49Claire, thank you.
01:21:51So much for not giving up on us.
01:21:54You've got to be kidding me!
01:21:58No!
01:21:58Don't fucking touch her!
01:22:00All right, this is fucked up even for you, Chris.
01:22:03Byron, send his ass back to England.
01:22:05Make sure he never comes back.
01:22:06Yes, sir.
01:22:13You'll regret this, both of you.
01:22:15You'll never be happy!
01:22:19Thank God.
01:22:27Claire.
01:22:32Will you marry me?
01:22:35For real, this time?
01:22:37Yes.
01:22:39Yes, I will.
01:22:48It's beautiful.
01:22:49No.
01:22:50No.
01:22:53No.
01:22:54No.
01:22:56No.
01:22:58No.
01:22:58No.
01:22:59No.
01:23:00No.
01:23:01No.
01:23:01No.
01:23:01No.
01:23:02No.
01:23:02No.
01:23:02No.
01:23:02No.
01:23:04No.
01:23:04No.
01:23:08No.
01:23:11No.
01:23:42Mrs. Reed, are you still planning on having a baby the clinical way?
01:23:48Oh, no.
01:23:50This time, I'm with the real deal.
01:24:07Well?
01:24:10I mean, it's okay if we're not. We still have time.
01:24:15I'm pregnant.
01:24:17We're having a baby.
01:24:19Yeah.
01:24:25We're having a baby.
01:24:26Yeah, look.
01:24:35Claire, Claire, you know I didn't mean all the stuff I said, right? It was a joke. All right?
01:24:42Right. Come on. Hey, man. A bet's a bet.
01:24:47Lucky for you, we're feeling merciful. So no full-frontal humiliation today.
01:24:52No one wants to see that anyway.
01:24:55But we did come up with a creative alternative.
01:25:01Put that on.
01:25:02And then say exactly what you promised.
01:25:05And make sure you say it loud enough for the entire office to hear.
01:25:12Oh, wait. Hurry up.
01:25:14We're planning around.
01:25:23I've slept my way to the top.
01:25:25I'm a little bitch boy.
01:25:28The real loser is the father of my child.
01:25:31Yes.
01:25:33Oh, that's good.
01:25:33That's really good.
01:25:34This is much better than the original plan.
01:25:36Yes, I do.
01:25:37Ugly.
01:25:48Should we have him stop?
01:25:49No.
