00:00:02Inmate 4317289, Evelyn Langley.
00:00:06Visitation approved.
00:00:08Visitor, Lucian Lowell.
00:00:13Um, can I please get a tablecloth?
00:00:18Please, I don't want him to know that I'm pregnant.
00:00:27This necklace means a lot to me.
00:00:30I love you, Evelyn.
00:00:33You are mine.
00:00:36But there's no going back now.
00:00:44Evelyn, it's been five months.
00:00:47I've been counting every single day until you'd let me see you.
00:00:50You don't look good.
00:00:51Are they even taking care of you in here?
00:00:55Listen, I know you were set up.
00:00:57I've hired the best appellate guy in the city.
00:00:59We're going to fight this.
00:01:00Lucian, we're done.
00:01:03What?
00:01:05I said you were.
00:01:07No.
00:01:08No, I don't accept that.
00:01:11I'll wait for you, Evelyn.
00:01:14I'll marry you.
00:01:18I'll marry you.
00:01:24The click of these cuffs is louder than any wedding bells, Lucian.
00:01:30I'm tired.
00:01:32And I have nothing left to give.
00:01:35So you should find someone else.
00:01:37I'm not giving up on you.
00:01:39You said you'd love me for life.
00:01:41You said that we'd have babies, remember?
00:01:43A little one with golden hair like my grandpa.
00:01:56What is this?
00:01:59We had a baby.
00:02:01Once.
00:02:05Not anymore.
00:02:09Two months?
00:02:11What?
00:02:14You killed our baby?
00:02:18You did this just to break up with her?
00:02:23Are you out of your fucking mind, Evelyn?
00:02:26That was our baby!
00:02:27You know how bad I wanted a child!
00:02:30Sir!
00:02:31You're out of line because it's over.
00:02:33Let's go, now!
00:02:35Evelyn.
00:02:36Evelyn Langley, I hate you!
00:02:37I hate you!
00:02:44Lucian loves you.
00:02:46Since you've been remanded.
00:02:48He's been running all over town, lining up the best council,
00:02:51trying to get your time reduced.
00:02:54Lucian.
00:02:56It's touching, isn't it?
00:02:59The sole heir of the Lowell family falls head over heels for someone like you.
00:03:04But for us, it's a nightmare.
00:03:07When the Lowell name becomes a punchline the second its heir falls for a criminal.
00:03:12No, sir. I was framed.
00:03:14That man tried to force himself on me. I didn't hurt him.
00:03:17Look, I am sorry for what happened to you.
00:03:21I truly am.
00:03:23But that doesn't change the fact about who you are.
00:03:27For my son's reputation.
00:03:29For his future.
00:03:31You need to walk away.
00:03:36And what if I were pregnant?
00:03:38Would I get a second chance?
00:03:41Miss Langley, you will not marry into this family by leveraging a pregnancy.
00:03:45If you were ever to carry Lucian's child, we would take full custody.
00:03:50You would be out of the picture.
00:03:52Because we will never allow a Lowell heir to have a criminal for a mother.
00:03:57That would be a stain on the child.
00:04:00And on our family name.
00:04:05You know how bad I wanted a child.
00:04:08Evelyn.
00:04:09Evelyn Langley, I hate you.
00:04:15I'll wait for you.
00:04:17Evelyn.
00:04:19I'll marry you.
00:04:25Nobody's gonna take you away from me, okay?
00:04:29Not even your father.
00:04:39I'll marry you.
00:04:40I'll marry you.
00:04:40Sir, you've been out here for over three hours.
00:04:42Who are you waiting on?
00:04:43Evelyn Langley.
00:04:44Number 4317289.
00:04:46She's scheduled to be released today.
00:04:48Evelyn Langley?
00:04:50She was released for good behavior three months ago.
00:04:52You didn't know?
00:05:00Right.
00:05:02Of course.
00:05:04Evelyn Langley.
00:05:06When you said we were over,
00:05:09you meant it.
00:05:15Good morning, Ms. Langley.
00:05:17I'm Luis Morales with Los Angeles County DCFS.
00:05:21Oh, s- please.
00:05:28Easy.
00:05:29Just breathe.
00:05:30You're okay.
00:05:32Hi, Ms. Morales.
00:05:35Ms. Langley.
00:05:36Now, our records show that you were released early for good behavior.
00:05:39Now, that's noted.
00:05:40However, we did receive a report alleging that you do not have a steady income and cannot reliably cover rent,
00:05:48which may put your child's welfare at risk.
00:05:51Now, if these conditions aren't met, DCFS will have to initiate temporary protective custody.
00:05:56That report is malicious.
00:05:59I have a job.
00:06:00I got the offer today.
00:06:08All right.
00:06:09But you also have a prior for assault with a deadly weapon on your record.
00:06:14If we observe any indication of violence, we may also detain your child.
00:06:18No, I'm not going to make that mistake again.
00:06:20If I may.
00:06:22And you are?
00:06:24Vance Reed.
00:06:25I'm her neighbor.
00:06:27A U.S. Army veteran served for seven years and honorably discharged.
00:06:31I'll vouch for her character.
00:06:33She's steady, gentle, and all-around good, Mom.
00:06:38All right.
00:06:40Thanks for coming by. You have a good day.
00:06:42Yeah, you too.
00:06:50My Eric actually got golden hair, just like Lucien's grandpa.
00:06:56Mom, we're not getting split up, right?
00:06:59No, not now, not ever.
00:07:01Okay? I promise.
00:07:06I promise.
00:07:06Thank you for the job lead and for backing me up.
00:07:12Of course.
00:07:13I know how much you love this little rascal.
00:07:16I couldn't stand to see you two apart.
00:07:19Thank you, really.
00:07:21Thanks, Uncle Vance.
00:07:25Come on, let's drop him off at school.
00:07:26I can tell you to see my cousin's company.
00:07:30All right, you're all set.
00:07:32Executive assistant to the CEO.
00:07:34The boss is out right now, but you can start tomorrow and we'll go...
00:07:39Oh, boss, you're back.
00:07:49I've hired the best to tell the guy this.
00:07:51We're going to fight this.
00:07:52You killed our baby?
00:07:54You did this just to break up with me?
00:07:56Are you out of your fucking mind?
00:07:57Evelyn.
00:07:58Let's go.
00:07:58Evelyn, I hate you.
00:08:06Hey.
00:08:09Come on.
00:08:10Introductions.
00:08:16Perfect timing.
00:08:17This is the new assistant I recommended.
00:08:19Evelyn Langley.
00:08:20This is my cousin, Rishi Lowell.
00:08:23Started this company, what, four years ago?
00:08:26I know he looks all stern, but he's really a softy.
00:08:29Almost got himself killed rescuing a puppy, one of her kids.
00:08:33Likes his coffee black, bitter as sand.
00:08:35He's got a serious sweet tooth.
00:08:36That's enough.
00:08:38Hey.
00:08:39She's your assistant.
00:08:40I was just telling her your preferences.
00:08:42My preferences.
00:08:44Oh, she knows it.
00:08:47Including my size.
00:08:49Every inch.
00:08:50She knows it completely and deeply.
00:08:55Isn't that right, Miss Langley?
00:08:57What?
00:09:00What?
00:09:01What do you mean she knows?
00:09:02Because.
00:09:05Because?
00:09:06Because you're a public figure.
00:09:09I did my homework before day one.
00:09:12Ah.
00:09:13See, I told you I'd pick winners.
00:09:15Anyways, let me break it.
00:09:1632 and 25, 35.
00:09:20Down the size, aren't you?
00:09:36Down the size, aren't you?
00:09:38No.
00:09:42Um.
00:09:43I'm sorry.
00:09:45I just, I don't think that I'm the right fit for this job.
00:09:48You signed the agreement.
00:09:52There's a liquidated damages clause.
00:09:54You walk, and pay.
00:10:04I misspoke.
00:10:06I'm sorry.
00:10:06I just meant that I was stepping away for a minute.
00:10:09Good.
00:10:10I thought you were quitting.
00:10:12Before I get a hands-on read of your new size.
00:10:20Lucien.
00:10:21You look pleased.
00:10:23What's the good news?
00:10:25Evelyn.
00:10:27You're out.
00:10:28Oh.
00:10:29You know my new assistant.
00:10:31Assistant?
00:10:34Well, let me properly introduce you.
00:10:36Your new assistant is family.
00:10:39Evelyn.
00:10:40Welcome to my fiance's company.
00:10:42My dear, dear stepsister.
00:10:47Fiance.
00:10:49Yeah.
00:10:50Lucien and I are engaged.
00:10:52We were just about to spread the good news.
00:10:54Isn't that right, honey?
00:10:55So while I was rotting in prison for six years, he became my stepsister's fiance.
00:11:02My stepsister.
00:11:03The little sister of the bastard who framed me and got me locked up.
00:11:06What's wrong, Evelyn?
00:11:08Are you nervous?
00:11:09Don't be.
00:11:10Lucien's a good man.
00:11:11He won't judge you just because he's done time.
00:11:14Isn't that right, honey?
00:11:21Yeah.
00:11:22She's been locked up.
00:11:25But she was framed.
00:11:26Besides, she's my girl, so don't be giving her any wrong looks.
00:11:31Miss Langley, I hired you to work, not date.
00:11:34Kindly perform your duties.
00:11:36Brew me a coffee.
00:11:38Bring it to my office.
00:11:41And be sure to make one for your boss's fiancee.
00:11:45Me.
00:11:46I like mine scalding.
00:11:54I'm sorry for the whole girlfriend thing.
00:11:56I was just...
00:11:57No, I know.
00:11:58I know you were just trying to cover for me, so I wouldn't get singled out.
00:12:02But just don't do that again.
00:12:04When people think you're dating a felon, it's...
00:12:06It's not good for you.
00:12:09I'm fine.
00:12:10Come on.
00:12:11I'll go help you make that cup of coffee.
00:12:15Sorry if my cousin spooked you back there.
00:12:17No, it's...
00:12:18I'm fine.
00:12:20Yeah?
00:12:22You know, you didn't know what it used to be like this.
00:12:25Went through a pretty ugly breakup about five, six years ago.
00:12:28Blew up his whole world.
00:12:29Turned him cold and quiet.
00:12:32In fact, it's a bit taboo to even speak of her name in the Lowell family.
00:12:39A taboo.
00:12:40Sounds more like a shame.
00:12:43Hm?
00:12:44Well, I...
00:12:45I don't know, I was deployed back then.
00:12:47I don't really know all the details, but...
00:12:49I can tell he's pretty broken up about it still.
00:12:52Really?
00:12:53Yeah, he even named his company after them.
00:12:56L&L Group.
00:12:58L&L.
00:12:59I love you, Evelyn.
00:13:01I want everything I own to carry your name.
00:13:04Evelyn Langley.
00:13:05You.
00:13:06Lucian Lowell.
00:13:07The L&L Group.
00:13:10Both of our last names for the new company.
00:13:12How does that say it?
00:13:15I keep on holding on to you.
00:13:20You are mine.
00:13:22I keep on holding on to you.
00:13:29Oh, shit.
00:13:31Oh, my God, that looks like a second-degree burn.
00:13:34I'll go get some burn cream.
00:13:35I'll be right back, okay?
00:13:40Lucian, I'm sorry.
00:13:44I love you.
00:13:47And I can't pull you down with my past.
00:13:50And I can't lose Eric.
00:13:57You burned yourself?
00:14:11You're pushing away because of dance?
00:14:13Yes.
00:14:15Mr. Lowell, you're standing too close.
00:14:26Too close.
00:14:33You're going to remind me of what too close used to mean?
00:14:37That's my tongue.
00:14:38From every inch of your skin.
00:14:41With you underneath me.
00:14:43Shaking.
00:14:45Screaming my name.
00:14:47Don't say another word.
00:14:49Why not?
00:14:50Afraid your precious boyfriend's going to hear?
00:14:56I'm good.
00:14:58Because he's going to hear.
00:15:00And he's going to see it, too.
00:15:06Don't kill me.
00:15:07This is so...
00:15:11Do you even know what you're doing?
00:15:14Are you out of your mind?
00:15:15I've been out of my mind for six years.
00:15:19Ever since you said we were dead.
00:15:22Let's get one thing straight, okay?
00:15:25Whatever we were, I am your assistant now.
00:15:29Who the hell wants you as my assistant?
00:15:32I want you as my woman.
00:15:34My wife.
00:15:40Come back to me, Evelyn.
00:15:45You should...
00:15:46Come back to me, Evelyn.
00:16:13Evelyn.
00:16:24I got the burn cream.
00:16:29Lucian.
00:16:34Lucian.
00:16:35What are you doing here?
00:16:36Is Evelyn still in there?
00:16:38She already took the coffee to a client.
00:16:40Oh.
00:16:40I'll just...
00:16:41I'll run it to him.
00:16:42Hold up.
00:16:42Evelyn's my assistant.
00:16:43She's on the clock.
00:16:45I won't interrupt her.
00:16:46Here, give me the cream.
00:16:47I'll make sure she gets it.
00:16:49Okay.
00:16:50It was a bad burn, though.
00:16:51Make sure she puts it on right away.
00:16:53I don't want her to get infected.
00:16:55Thanks, man.
00:16:56Catch up with you later.
00:17:02Lucian.
00:17:03There you are.
00:17:07Martin Trent from TL is waiting for you in your office.
00:17:11You're right there.
00:17:11I don't know what game you're playing, trying to seduce him.
00:17:39What's the matter?
00:17:41You scared I'm back?
00:17:43That makes sense.
00:17:44Six years.
00:17:46And you still haven't managed to become Mrs. Lowell.
00:17:49You bitch.
00:17:52Don't mess with someone who's done time.
00:17:56Where I was, people kill each other over a pack of cigarettes.
00:18:06Don't mess with me again.
00:18:08Unless you want Lucian to know how nasty you really are.
00:18:12Under that sweet little mask of yours.
00:18:20Trash.
00:18:21You should have spent the rest of your life with Jensen.
00:18:29Evelyn.
00:18:30These are our top client files.
00:18:32Study them.
00:18:33Mr. Lowell's going to quiz you.
00:18:35Thanks.
00:18:49Mr. Lowell, how can I help you?
00:18:52Day's over.
00:18:54I'm driving you home.
00:18:56You can say no, but then I'll carry you through the whole office until you're in my car.
00:19:03Fine.
00:19:11Thank you for the ride, Mr. Lowell.
00:19:14I'll see you tomorrow.
00:19:18Why didn't you call me when you got out?
00:19:26I didn't see the point.
00:19:42Lucian.
00:19:44Vance, pick this up for you.
00:19:45Burn cream.
00:19:46I forgot to give it to you earlier.
00:19:48Okay, thank you.
00:19:49Hold on.
00:19:53You're not going to invite me in for some coffee?
00:19:57Um, now's, now's not a good time.
00:20:06Hey, what are you-
00:20:09You're living with Vance now?
00:20:11That's why it's not a good time?
00:20:12It's only been out three months.
00:20:14You already need to get dicked down that bad?
00:20:16My personal life is none of your business.
00:20:19Oh yeah, I don't make it my business.
00:20:28Get out!
00:20:34Mom!
00:20:38Mom, you're back!
00:20:43Mom?
00:20:47Hi!
00:20:49Mom?
00:20:52This is my mom, mister.
00:20:54Are you my mom's friend?
00:20:56That blonde kid.
00:20:58If she hadn't ended the pregnancy six years ago,
00:21:00our kid would be about this age.
00:21:03Hey, kid, how old are you?
00:21:07Hi.
00:21:07Eric!
00:21:09Hey, bud.
00:21:11Dry your hair, man.
00:21:11I don't want you to catch in the cold.
00:21:15Lucian.
00:21:17Vance.
00:21:18What are you doing here?
00:21:20Hi.
00:21:22Vance, could you just take Eric outside for just a minute?
00:21:27Yeah.
00:21:28Sure.
00:21:29Come on, bud.
00:21:30Let's go play catch.
00:21:31I want to build a Lego.
00:21:33Legos.
00:21:33I love Legos.
00:21:42That boy, Eric.
00:21:45Is he mine?
00:21:48Is that my son?
00:21:49No.
00:21:52As you can see, he's Vance's mind.
00:21:54Oh, come on, Evelyn.
00:21:56You just pulled that lie out of your ass.
00:21:57When you were inside, Vance was deployed with the Rangers.
00:22:00So what exactly did you two have this baby?
00:22:06Okay, fine.
00:22:07You caught that.
00:22:08Eric isn't Vance's.
00:22:11He's the child that I had with the guard.
00:22:14In prison.
00:22:14No, no, no.
00:22:15That's a fucking lie.
00:22:16No, stop.
00:22:18Don't do this to me.
00:22:19Why would I lie?
00:22:22You know how it is.
00:22:23When you're inside, you still have to survive.
00:22:25You do things for money.
00:22:29You sell yourself for money, huh?
00:22:33Why didn't you come to me?
00:22:35I would have given you every damn dollar you wanted.
00:22:37Please, get your hands off me.
00:22:43You don't want me to touch you?
00:22:45Okay.
00:22:57I already paid.
00:22:59Now fuck you now.
00:23:05Christian, please don't do that.
00:23:12Why does everyone else get two?
00:23:15And I don't.
00:23:17Why?
00:23:35Mom, we're back.
00:23:37Mom, look.
00:23:38Up it's a Lego spaceship.
00:23:40Please, please.
00:23:41Megan, you just stop.
00:23:47I'll spread your legs for anyone who pays.
00:23:50And now you care about your kids' feelings?
00:23:59Mom, we're back.
00:24:01Mom, look what I made.
00:24:04Oh, wow.
00:24:06That's awesome.
00:24:09Mister, do you think it looks cool?
00:24:16Yeah, looks great.
00:24:18Good job.
00:24:23Hey, you know my buddies are throwing a little party celebrating me getting to the fire department?
00:24:28Oh.
00:24:29I was wondering if you want to be my date.
00:24:32Oh, she doesn't have time for that.
00:24:34She's got a full-time job.
00:24:36Your recommendation, remember?
00:24:40Yeah.
00:24:41I mean, it's after hours.
00:24:43Come on.
00:24:44Help me out.
00:24:45I don't want to be the only single guy there.
00:24:49Um, sure.
00:24:51Yeah, of course.
00:24:52I'll be your date.
00:25:00Ah, what's the matter?
00:25:02I need a paternity test to run on these.
00:25:04Let me know if they're father and son.
00:25:05Certainly.
00:25:07Leave it with me.
00:25:10Mister, do you think it looks cool?
00:25:13Is he really not ours?
00:25:17Yeah, looks great.
00:25:22Eric, are you my son?
00:25:25I'm very sorry, Miss Hicks.
00:25:27You're infertile.
00:25:28But you can always consider adoption.
00:25:32Adoption, my ass.
00:25:34Adoption doesn't make me Mrs. Lowell.
00:25:36Only carrying Lucian's heir does.
00:25:41Don't worry, Mr. Lowell.
00:25:43I'll exploit the results.
00:25:45Appreciate it.
00:25:52I know that you're seven figures deep in gambling debt.
00:25:56So, how about you tell me why Lucian Lowell was here?
00:26:00And this one million could be yours.
00:26:12He asked me to run a DNA test, father and son.
00:26:17Oh, well.
00:26:21When the results arrive, call me first.
00:26:26Not Lucian.
00:26:35Um, Mr. Lowell.
00:26:38I need your signature on these.
00:26:47Dressed up like this?
00:26:48All for Advance's little party tonight?
00:26:52That's my personal business.
00:26:57Looks like I've ruined your dress.
00:27:01I'm sorry, I got your dress all dirty.
00:27:04It's fine.
00:27:07Hey, how could it be fine?
00:27:09I've ruined it.
00:27:11I'll make it right.
00:27:13It's two last minutes to buy you a new one.
00:27:16So for now, just wear mine.
00:27:21I'll get you a better one later.
00:27:25That's fine.
00:27:26Thanks.
00:27:27I'll just wash this one and bring it back tomorrow.
00:27:30My boyfriend's downstairs, so I should go.
00:27:38Boyfriend, huh?
00:27:41No one wears that label but me.
00:27:47Evelyn.
00:27:48Hi.
00:27:49Wow, you're looking stunning.
00:27:51Thanks.
00:27:54That shirt looks a little familiar, though.
00:27:57Um, yeah.
00:27:59All dress shirts kind of just look the same.
00:28:02But we're going to be late, so we should probably go.
00:28:05You're right.
00:28:07After you, my lady.
00:28:12Backseat safer.
00:28:14What are you...
00:28:19Lucian, what are you doing?
00:28:21It's my cousin's celebration party.
00:28:23Of course I'm going.
00:28:24Isn't that right, Vance?
00:28:29Absolutely.
00:28:30I mean, shit, yeah, man.
00:28:31A proper night out and what?
00:28:32Six years?
00:28:34You want to break that streak celebrating me?
00:28:35Let's go.
00:28:37All right.
00:28:38Let's go.
00:28:39Drive.
00:28:41He used to live for parties.
00:28:43Four or five a month, like clockwork.
00:28:45And he hasn't even been to one since we broke up.
00:28:48I think so we got Jackson, Bob.
00:28:51Who else do you want on the list?
00:28:53We've already thrown four parties this month.
00:28:56Why another?
00:28:59Because I want everyone to know you're mine, Evelyn.
00:29:03And I want the whole world to see it.
00:29:05And I'm with you.
00:29:06I'm the happiest man alive.
00:29:10All right.
00:29:12We're here.
00:29:14We're here.
00:29:21We're here.
00:29:28So close, I could almost stop.
00:29:34You're in the voice.
00:29:35Oh.
00:29:37What's going on?
00:29:40Come on, I can pardon me, baby.
00:29:41All right?
00:29:42Two, three, on you.
00:29:43Three, on me?
00:29:44All right.
00:29:44Take it easy, animals.
00:29:46I want to introduce you to Evelyn.
00:29:47Hi.
00:29:50And it's my cousin, Lucy Roe.
00:29:53You bear.
00:29:54Yeah, we know, we know.
00:29:55Six years ago, the internet's favorite clown,
00:29:59Mr. Trust Fun, lovesick, fell in love with the criminal, right?
00:30:07Look, sorry, man.
00:30:09I'm just curious.
00:30:10How does a guy like you just burn all of his pride away for some woman?
00:30:15And then you start sucking up to those slimy judges and politicians
00:30:18just to try to figure out?
00:30:20Do you want to look?
00:30:23The whole name becomes a punchline the second its air falls for a criminal.
00:30:29So he carried all that heat because of me?
00:30:33Hey, take it easy, man.
00:30:35Come on.
00:30:36We all ugly crowd over a one-night stand who ghosted us before checkout.
00:30:40It's not on him.
00:30:41It's on that slut.
00:30:43You never deserved him in the first place.
00:30:48What happens when he figures out that slut is you?
00:30:52Do you think he'll regret busting his ass, recommending you as my assistant?
00:30:57Or just regret ever meeting you at all?
00:31:01Hey, I'm sorry about those clowns, but the pool table's open.
00:31:06Say we run a game, okay?
00:31:09You want to play?
00:31:12Oh, I just, I don't know how to play.
00:31:14Sorry.
00:31:17Let's go and grab one of these.
00:31:19How about you?
00:31:21Let's run it.
00:31:24What's the fun without a little skin in the game?
00:31:27Okay.
00:31:29Mr. Air.
00:31:30Alright.
00:31:31You call it.
00:31:32What have we been on?
00:31:38Winner gets the kiss, Evelyn.
00:31:41What?
00:31:43Hey, you out of your goddamn mind?
00:31:44She's not some chip on a poker tape.
00:31:46What's wrong?
00:31:47You nervous?
00:31:48I thought you said she was your girlfriend, right?
00:31:51What's the matter?
00:31:52Are you scared that you're not man enough to win your own girl's kiss?
00:31:57Vance, take the bet.
00:31:58We got you.
00:32:00Beat him.
00:32:00Beat him.
00:32:01Beat him.
00:32:02Beat him.
00:32:04Beat him.
00:32:05Beat him.
00:32:06Beat him.
00:32:07Beat him.
00:32:08Beat him.
00:32:09No, please.
00:32:09I'm sorry, but I don't agree to this.
00:32:12I'm not some prize.
00:32:13Is that so?
00:32:17Then I tell Vance the truth.
00:32:19That you're the slut you just trashed.
00:32:24Well, Vance, it looks like your girlfriend doesn't even believe in you.
00:32:27So, you know what?
00:32:28Just forget it.
00:32:30Hey, I'm in.
00:32:33Besides, back on base.
00:32:35Please deliver the tables.
00:32:37Ran my unit's attorney.
00:32:39So I'm not losing to you.
00:32:40Oh, yeah?
00:32:41Yeah, that's right.
00:33:00No way.
00:33:02He's running the rack.
00:33:03Holy shit, he just ran the game.
00:33:05That's the level of golden boy.
00:33:07I win.
00:33:09Yeah.
00:33:11Time to claim my prize.
00:33:27All right, enough.
00:33:31Hey.
00:33:33Enough.
00:33:37I'm out of here.
00:33:38Evelyn, let's go.
00:33:41She's not.
00:33:42She's my prize.
00:33:44Come on, don't tell me you're a sore loser, Vance.
00:33:47I'm not a sore loser.
00:33:48The bet was one kiss.
00:33:50You got what you wanted, cuz.
00:33:51Please.
00:33:53That was barely a warm-up.
00:34:01My ex is a slut to you, right?
00:34:05So what does that make this woman, who just let me kiss her, that makes her...
00:34:11Shut up!
00:34:12Don't you dare bring Evelyn down to the level of the ex who left you.
00:34:19Take a close look.
00:34:21She fits the same label.
00:34:23You fucking bastard.
00:34:33What are you doing?
00:34:35This is Lucian Lowell, CEO of the L&L Group.
00:34:38I've been assaulted at the Velvet Q.
00:34:40I'm bleeding.
00:34:42You've got one minute to send a squad car down to that door,
00:34:44or I pull every dollar from the Lowell money from your pet foundations.
00:34:49No, Lucian, what?
00:34:50Stop!
00:34:50Are you crazy?
00:34:52Vance is your cousin.
00:34:54He just made the fire department, and now you're gonna ruin him?
00:34:57He ruined me first.
00:34:59The moment you called the woman I love the slut, you ruined me.
00:35:03You dragged the woman I love through the mud.
00:35:06You don't just insult her.
00:35:07You burned down my love.
00:35:09You burned down everything I am.
00:35:12I was defending you, man.
00:35:14Who fucking cares?
00:35:16Who fucking cares?
00:35:18Right here.
00:35:19This one.
00:35:22No.
00:35:23I'll leave by my own.
00:35:27Classic.
00:35:29Vance.
00:35:30Lucian.
00:35:32Lucian.
00:35:33Please don't do this to Vance.
00:35:39Eveline?
00:35:40Bitch.
00:35:42Who is she chasing at?
00:35:43Lucian.
00:35:44Lucian?
00:35:47Lucian!
00:35:48Vance was just trying to stand up!
00:35:51Oh, I know exactly who he was standing up for.
00:35:53Of course it's you.
00:35:55His precious girlfriend.
00:35:58What about me, huh?
00:36:00I stood up for the woman I used to call my girl woman.
00:36:04And suddenly I'm the asshole.
00:36:06You look at me insane.
00:36:08Was I wrong?
00:36:10Was I wrong to love you back then?
00:36:13I'm sorry.
00:36:15This is on me.
00:36:18It's my fault.
00:36:22You want me to let me dance off the hook?
00:36:30Oh, you won't do it?
00:36:35Pass the bread that your whole girlfriend act is always in the same.
00:36:38Half-hearted and just get it.
00:36:40You can't even go all in.
00:36:41Don't come begging me to save your mother.
00:36:50I'll do it!
00:36:55I'll go with you.
00:37:10Laura!
00:37:11Laura!
00:37:34The DNA report's done.
00:37:37What did you just say?
00:37:45If you keep your head down there any longer, I'd be real happy to take you right now in this
00:37:50car.
00:37:54Sorry.
00:37:55I just...
00:37:55I didn't want Laura to see us and get the wrong idea.
00:37:58She's still your fiancé.
00:38:01After all.
00:38:03Is that so?
00:38:09You know, I just helped you dodge a hell of a boy.
00:38:13How are you planning to thank me for that?
00:38:18I appreciate it.
00:38:20Really, Lucian.
00:38:25I don't run a charity, Evelyn.
00:38:28I do business.
00:38:30If I help you, you pay me back in something real.
00:38:36Same as when you were begging me to get Vance off the hook.
00:38:41What do you want?
00:38:43What I want is...
00:39:08Strip.
00:39:09What?
00:39:10You want me to release Vance, right?
00:39:13Take all of your clothes off, and I won't press charges against him.
00:39:20Won't do it.
00:39:23Then get out of here.
00:39:29Fine.
00:39:30I'll do it.
00:39:35Never add an eye to my...
00:39:41So close, I could almost touch.
00:39:47Always seems just out of reach.
00:39:50Always close, but never meet.
00:39:54When all I need to be is close to you.
00:39:59If I don't cross, did I even try?
00:40:24How much do you love Vance, that you would do all of this for him?
00:40:32Why did I do wrong, for you to punch me like this?
00:40:37You broke up, years ago.
00:40:41I never agreed to it.
00:40:44Breakup isn't a business contract, it doesn't require both parties to agree.
00:40:50Business?
00:40:52Okay, let's talk about business.
00:40:57Let's talk about what I'm owed.
00:40:59We're helping you hide from Laura in my car.
00:41:02If you refuse, I'll call Laura right now and tell her exactly where you are.
00:41:12Kiss me back.
00:41:32Lucian, open up.
00:41:33Oh my god, your dad's here.
00:41:35Lucian, open up.
00:41:38Oh my god, your dad's here.
00:41:41What are you so afraid of?
00:41:42What?
00:41:45Exciting, isn't it?
00:41:48You're crazy.
00:41:50Let me show you what crazy looks like.
00:41:53I'll lose you.
00:41:55Wait.
00:41:57Lucian, open up!
00:42:03We can't, we can't do this.
00:42:05Lucian!
00:42:06Damn it.
00:42:07Dad, it's late.
00:42:09What do you want?
00:42:10I have a drink with my son.
00:42:12Open up.
00:42:14It's late.
00:42:14I don't want a drink right now.
00:42:16I just have to drink by myself.
00:42:18Hey, look, if you don't open the door, I'm just gonna let myself in.
00:42:27I can't.
00:42:28I can't.
00:42:29Sorry.
00:42:31I can't.
00:42:36Hey, Dad.
00:42:39You were right here.
00:42:41Why didn't you just open up?
00:42:42I was just about to.
00:42:44Come on.
00:42:46Have a drink with your old man.
00:42:57Dad, you don't show up this late just to crack a cold one.
00:43:00What's going on?
00:43:01I heard Evelyn's out.
00:43:05Look.
00:43:06You still can't get over her.
00:43:08Make her as your mistress.
00:43:09And give her a child.
00:43:11I'll allow it.
00:43:12But that child belongs to the Lowell family.
00:43:15Your future wife will raise it.
00:43:25What was that?
00:43:26It's nothing.
00:43:27Alright, you're hearing things.
00:43:28Bullshit.
00:43:29My hearing's perfect.
00:43:31That sound came from the bathroom.
00:43:33Probably some thief.
00:43:36Been a lot of break-ins here lately.
00:43:38But Dad, don't.
00:43:39Jesus.
00:43:52Alright, since you've clearly seen it, I might as well.
00:44:04Thank God.
00:44:05It's just the first floor.
00:44:07She'd rather jump out a damn window than stay in here with me.
00:44:12How's that possible?
00:44:14I swear I heard something.
00:44:18Maybe my ears really are going.
00:44:20I'm not turning Evelyn into some mistress.
00:44:23The only place she has in my life is as my wife.
00:44:26And as far as the Lowell family goes, L&L is big enough to go toe-to-toe with them.
00:44:31If it comes down to it, I'll fight.
00:44:34Fight?
00:44:36Over one woman?
00:44:37You turn against your own family?
00:44:39No!
00:44:40It's my own family turning against me.
00:44:43It...
00:44:47Or...
00:44:55It's my own family turning to me.
00:45:04Brink
00:45:06to me
00:45:07Your sweet sound
00:45:13The wind, it blows in change
00:45:22Bring me, come, your shining light
00:45:31Will show us apart to fall
00:45:36Eric, mommy's home
00:45:45What are you doing here?
00:45:48Eric, are you okay?
00:45:50Didn't mommy tell you not to open the door for strangers, honey?
00:45:53Can't believe this bitch, Evelyn, actually had Lucian's kid
00:45:57Good thing I was able to intercept the news
00:45:59And Lucian still has no idea
00:46:01Now it's time for me to get rid of this bitch
00:46:04Mommy, Auntie says she's your sister
00:46:07She showed me some pictures of you two together
00:46:09That's right, Evelyn
00:46:11I'm your sister, I'm not a stranger
00:46:13And when the DCFS initiates temporary guardianship
00:46:17I'm your next of kin to take custody of Eric
00:46:22No, I don't want you to be my guardian
00:46:24I want my mommy, you're bad
00:46:26Go away
00:46:28Hey, Eric
00:46:30Nobody's gonna take you away from mommy
00:46:32Why?
00:46:37Can we talk?
00:46:46What exactly are you trying to pull here?
00:46:48You come at me, directly
00:46:51Dear sister, why would I hurt Eric?
00:46:54You're the one with the violent stabbing history
00:46:58You could just lose control at any moment
00:47:04Evelyn!
00:47:05What are you doing?
00:47:06I was just stating the facts
00:47:10Evelyn!
00:47:11Can you just stop it?
00:47:13What the hell are you doing?
00:47:17Listen
00:47:22Evelyn!
00:47:22What are you doing?
00:47:23I was just stating the facts?
00:47:25Evelyn!
00:47:26Can you just stop it?
00:47:28Do you think
00:47:29If I sent this
00:47:31To the DCFS
00:47:32That they would
00:47:33Initiate temporary guardianship
00:47:35And grant me
00:47:36Your only sister
00:47:37Custody of your son?
00:47:39No, that's slander
00:47:40You're framing me
00:47:41There's no way that they're gonna believe you
00:47:43Huh
00:47:44Oh yeah?
00:47:46You wanna test that theory?
00:47:48What's the DCFS hotline again?
00:47:50It's uh, one
00:47:51Stop! Stop!
00:47:57As long as you do not take Eric from me
00:48:00Whatever you want, I will do it
00:48:04See?
00:48:05It wasn't so hard, now was it?
00:48:08Leave Lucian's company
00:48:10Leave his life
00:48:12And never show your little face again
00:48:14Fine
00:48:17I'll resign
00:48:18Tomorrow
00:48:19Stop!
00:48:21What else do you want?
00:48:23Remember what you told me
00:48:27Don't touch someone who's done time
00:48:29Where you come from
00:48:31People will kill each other over a pack of cigarettes
00:48:35Stop!
00:48:37Bitch!
00:48:38That's what you get for trying to threaten me
00:48:44I'm sorry
00:48:45Sorry?
00:48:48Sorry?
00:48:48Oh!
00:48:49You really think sorry makes me feel better?
00:48:52Ah!
00:48:53That's what you get for trying to scare me and stab you
00:48:58So you know who you're dealing with
00:49:05Enough!
00:49:08Hey
00:49:09Hey
00:49:10You okay?
00:49:16Hey
00:49:17You okay?
00:49:19You sure you're okay?
00:49:20I'm fine
00:49:23Hey
00:49:24If you're pissed about what happened at the bar then hit me
00:49:27I'm the one who swung on your little fiancee
00:49:30But don't you dare treat her like a punching bag
00:49:32No, she's not
00:49:33No, it was just a dumb bet between guys
00:49:35But I sure as hell wasn't gonna stand there and watch him put his mouth on her
00:49:40Lucian kissed Evelyn?
00:49:42Fucking over!
00:49:44Hey
00:49:45Hey
00:49:45I warned you didn't I?
00:49:47Now I'm being nice
00:49:48But I won't be so nice next time
00:49:52You're a whore
00:49:54You remember what you promised me
00:49:57Fuck
00:50:03I got you
00:50:05You're okay
00:50:10This is probably the worst timing but
00:50:14I'm gonna ask anyways
00:50:20Will you be my girlfriend?
00:50:26Um
00:50:28Um
00:50:29If you mean just keep
00:50:32Pretending in front of Lucian so that he doesn't
00:50:34No
00:50:36I'm not talking about putting an act on for Lucian
00:50:41Damn it I'm falling for you
00:50:43Shit I fell for you the moment you knocked on my door three months ago
00:50:46And you're telling me you're my neighbor holding that fresh baked tray of cookies
00:50:52At first I said it's just cause you're fresh out the service and you haven't dated in so long
00:50:56But
00:50:58No
00:51:01No
00:51:02I mean tonight I'm watching him kiss you
00:51:05I
00:51:05I can't stand to see you in anyone else's arms
00:51:09I love you Evelyn
00:51:12So
00:51:14Be my girlfriend
00:51:26Yeah?
00:51:28Leave me my girlfriend
00:51:29Yeah?
00:51:33Vance
00:51:37You're a really great guy
00:51:40But I can't lie to you
00:51:45I don't love you
00:51:46I don't love you
00:51:49At least not
00:51:50Not in the way that you want me to
00:51:57First time I actually put myself out there for a girl and
00:52:01Get shut down on the spot
00:52:03This one's for the history books
00:52:05No really thank you so much for everything that you've done for me in the last few months
00:52:09But as for your cousin's company
00:52:12L&L group
00:52:13I'm not going back there
00:52:14I'm gonna
00:52:15I'm gonna resign
00:52:16And if there's some kind of penalty in the contractor and whatever I'm gonna pay it
00:52:20Hey
00:52:22That's on me
00:52:25I'm the one who took that stupid bar bet
00:52:28If I didn't he wouldn't force that kiss on you
00:52:30So
00:52:31So yeah
00:52:34I don't blame you if you don't want to step foot in that place again
00:52:37And as far as the penalties I
00:52:40I'll take care of it
00:52:45Thank you Vance
00:52:46Don't
00:52:48I'm the one who drug you into this mess
00:52:59Wait
00:53:00You're saying that kid
00:53:01That kid isn't mine
00:53:02It's just a leaf
00:53:15It's just a leaf
00:53:16Lucien
00:53:20YouRPG
00:53:36You're my
00:53:37iLucien
00:53:37You're mine
00:53:38I I Lucien
00:53:40You're mine
00:53:41You're mine
00:53:41It's just a leaf
00:53:48Can I put on some more clothes?
00:53:51The money are the clothes.
00:53:52Your choice.
00:53:58If I don't make money, I'll lose custody of Eric.
00:54:01I can't let that happen.
00:54:05Uh, Evelyn?
00:54:07Bob?
00:54:13Bob, don't do this.
00:54:15I'm your sister.
00:54:16Laura is my sister.
00:54:19Your mother married my father, and you're just the little slut she brought for me.
00:54:27Bitch!
00:54:28If you get any closer, I'll kill you.
00:54:32If you kill me, you'll go to jail.
00:54:34I don't care!
00:54:36I'll do it!
00:54:38If you say so.
00:54:41Oh, is this the police?
00:54:43Please, help me.
00:54:44My stepsister, she's trying to kill me.
00:54:46She has a knife.
00:54:48I'm at the Langley Mansion.
00:54:52You know, if you strip naked, get on all fours and beg, I'll call Mom.
00:54:58They're not going to believe you.
00:55:00Try me.
00:55:01Mom!
00:55:01I can't believe the cops actually bought his story just because of that cut on his hand.
00:55:08You don't recognize me, darling, sister.
00:55:13You don't recognize me, darling, sister.
00:55:18What are you trying to do?
00:55:22You.
00:55:26How dare you hit me?
00:55:29I guess six years in jail wasn't enough to take you.
00:55:34You little slut.
00:55:35Don't act innocent.
00:55:37You're the one working in a strip club.
00:55:38Let go of me.
00:55:40Or what?
00:55:41My sister Laura is about to marry Lucian.
00:55:45Lol, that means I get to do whatever I want, and he'll protect me.
00:55:48So how about I give you a thousand dollars to fuck you just...
00:55:54Bitch!
00:55:55You hit me right through there.
00:56:12Lucian, this is my brother Bob.
00:56:14Bob, what are you doing?
00:56:16Fighting with Evelyn.
00:56:18This bitch actually kept her word and quit.
00:56:20But who would have thought she's in the gentleman's club and ran into Lucian.
00:56:24Just my luck.
00:56:26Lucian, this waitress is my stepsister.
00:56:29I was just teaching her a lesson.
00:56:34We have no right to teach my assistant.
00:56:37What?
00:56:38How could you let your fiancé hire her without telling him what kind of a person your stepsister really is?
00:56:45I really don't know my assistant very well, do I?
00:56:50Please, enlighten me.
00:56:52She's desperate for money to marry into wealth.
00:56:56She snuck into my bed one night, tried to seduce me, and when I refused, she stabbed me.
00:57:01She got sentenced to jail for six years.
00:57:05Six years ago, my lawyer asked her mother to testify for you to court, but she refused.
00:57:10Is she protecting your stepbrother?
00:57:13Yes.
00:57:15She really loves my stepfather.
00:57:18Good thing I don't.
00:57:29Hit him.
00:57:36What are you waiting for?
00:57:37Hit him.
00:57:38No, I can't.
00:57:40I can't do any more time for this scumbag.
00:57:43From now on, no one else is doing time without my say-so.
00:57:52Evelyn, I have.
00:57:55So sorry about Bob.
00:57:57I don't know what he was thinking.
00:57:59Bringing up the past like that.
00:58:01I mean, you've already done your time.
00:58:03Lucian and I were just here for our date.
00:58:06We didn't know that we'd run into you.
00:58:09We'll have the driver take you home.
00:58:12No, that's fine.
00:58:14I can't leave.
00:58:16I work here now.
00:58:21I'll go try to change your mind.
00:58:28Get out.
00:58:36What the heck?
00:58:36What's going on?
00:58:38Why is he protecting her?
00:58:40Does he still love her?
00:58:41Because if he does, how are you going to become Mrs. Lowell?
00:58:44And how are you going to pay off my gambling?
00:58:46Don't rush.
00:58:47Love doesn't matter in a wealthy marriage, but a clean background does.
00:58:52The Lowells will never let somebody with a criminal record marry their one and only heir.
00:58:58The Lowells might care, but Lucian won't.
00:59:01That's why I need one more thing from you.
00:59:04What?
00:59:05Well, I need Lucian to get you having sex with Evelyn in public with his very own eyes.
00:59:13I am going to completely destroy her.
00:59:18Are you insane?
00:59:19That is going to ruin me too.
00:59:21I'm your brother.
00:59:22Well, that's right.
00:59:23I trust you, idiot.
00:59:25So, either you become a registered sex offender or you get fed to the Lone Sharks.
00:59:33Your choice.
00:59:36What?
00:59:37What?
00:59:51Lucian, I'm so sorry.
00:59:52She just, she won't have it.
00:59:54I mean, she said that one night here pays more than a month as your secretary.
01:00:01Funny.
01:00:02I'll go see for myself how much a little cocktail waitress makes in one night.
01:00:11My stepsister is working here and Lucian is just really upset about it.
01:00:16Do you think you could help me convince her to leave?
01:00:20Of course.
01:00:21We can't have Mrs. Lewis' sister working in a place like this.
01:00:26I already left your family and Lucian's company.
01:00:31So, why can't you just let me go?
01:00:34Because your existence is getting in the way of our fortune.
01:00:42I just saw Evelyn go in here.
01:00:49Evelyn, open the door.
01:00:52Lucian, I'm in here.
01:00:54I have waited a long time for Lucian to see just how much of a slut you raised me up.
01:01:01Evelyn, open up.
01:01:06If I smash this into his head, will I go to jail?
01:01:10Will I lose Eric?
01:01:14Will I lose Eric?
01:01:30Evelyn?
01:01:34Evelyn?
01:01:36Evelyn?
01:01:38Look at that fine body. I call the next dance.
01:01:42That's Laura's stepsister. I don't think we're gonna be able to talk her way out of this one.
01:01:46Better call the family's PR9.
01:01:48Oh, Evelyn! Why wouldn't you just leave when I asked you to?
01:01:54Evelyn, Lucian doesn't care about prison, but he definitely cares if you've slept with other men.
01:02:00He won't ever want you back after this.
01:02:03This is Lucian Lowell. I'd like to report a crime.
01:02:05Someone just tried to assault my assistant.
01:02:15It was her!
01:02:19Get out of the way!
01:02:29Be good. I will greet the doctor.
01:02:37Can I sleep with you?
01:02:39Please.
01:02:41I'll pay you.
01:02:45Pay me.
01:02:47Very expensive.
01:02:49Can you afford me?
01:02:53Fuck.
01:02:55What else?
01:02:56Fuck.
01:03:08Hey, hey, listen.
01:03:10You've been drugged.
01:03:12I will get a doctor.
01:03:14I feel great.
01:03:20I feel great.
01:03:21How much is there?
01:03:22I know.
01:03:23I swear.
01:03:25I swear.
01:03:28What?
01:03:31No!
01:03:32How much is there?
01:03:35Yeah!
01:03:41Eveline, I don't care whose child you had in prison.
01:03:44I don't care about anything that came before me.
01:03:47I just want you with me from now on.
01:03:51All of you.
01:04:28This was a mistake.
01:04:31We can't let it turn into something bigger.
01:04:34What are you doing?
01:04:40I'm...
01:04:44I'm waiting for the bus to take me home.
01:04:49Plan B?
01:04:52You really don't want a child with me, do you?
01:04:55You'd rather have one with some random convict in jail than risk having a kid with me?
01:05:03I shouldn't have your child.
01:05:05You shouldn't have my child?
01:05:07And whose child should you have, huh?
01:05:09Vances?
01:05:10You really got around these last six years in jail, didn't you?
01:05:13I mean, do you even know whose kid that is?
01:05:17Don't you dare insult my child.
01:05:24The biggest insult to that child is having a kid with a mother.
01:05:31We will never allow a Lowell heir to have a criminal for a mother.
01:05:35That would be a stain on the child and a family name.
01:05:45If Vance knew your past, would you really think he'd accept you?
01:05:50Yeah, I would.
01:05:53You don't think I know her past.
01:05:55I knew she did, Tom, the moment she stepped on my doorstep.
01:05:58Always talking cautious, fidgeting, checking her pockets, even though she didn't even have any.
01:06:05None of that matters to me.
01:06:07You know what's important?
01:06:08It's your amazing mother.
01:06:11It's your kind and beautiful inside and out.
01:06:14Vance, I...
01:06:15I'm not here to confess my love again.
01:06:19Come on, Evelyn.
01:06:21Let's go home.
01:06:23Eric is worried about you.
01:06:27Okay.
01:06:30You best stay away from everything else.
01:06:32For your own good.
01:06:36For my own good, huh?
01:06:37Yeah.
01:06:38Is it for my own good or is it for feelings that you just can't admit to yourself?
01:06:43Excuse me.
01:06:45You heard me.
01:06:45You think I'm blind?
01:06:47I know what's going on here.
01:06:49You've been hostile to Evelyn for the jump.
01:06:52And I know why.
01:06:54It's because she did time, just like your ex who ghosted you, and you're taking out on her unfairly.
01:06:59Taking it out on her?
01:07:00Yeah.
01:07:01You think you know all her past?
01:07:04Idiot.
01:07:06Please.
01:07:07Oh, hey.
01:07:08You all right?
01:07:09Um, I think that I might have twisted my ankle.
01:07:12Can you take me home now?
01:07:13Yeah.
01:07:14Let's go.
01:07:18You're mine, Evelyn.
01:07:21Cat's safe.
01:07:24Please, sir.
01:07:26Help me save this child.
01:07:28He got hit.
01:07:30Saving my dog.
01:07:32He has to get to a hospital.
01:07:34Please.
01:07:35This kid.
01:07:39This kid is driving a wedge between me and Evelyn, but my instinct still kicked in, and
01:07:45I took him to surgery.
01:07:51The patient is bleeding out.
01:07:52He needs a blood transfusion immediately.
01:07:55But we don't have enough RH negative blood.
01:07:56He needs a donor.
01:07:57Hey, doctor.
01:07:58Doctor, I'm RH negative.
01:08:00I can do it.
01:08:01Very well.
01:08:02Get him prepped.
01:08:04Come with me.
01:08:07Doctor.
01:08:08I'm Eric's mother.
01:08:10Is he okay?
01:08:10He needs an urgent blood transfusion.
01:08:12We'll already seek an RH negative donor.
01:08:17RH negative.
01:08:18When my cousin's RH negative, I'll just give him a call.
01:08:21He's not going to let Eric die.
01:08:22No, no, no, no, you can't.
01:08:24I know you don't like Lucian, but your son's life is on the line.
01:08:27Let's just put that aside first.
01:08:29It's precisely for Eric's life that I cannot let Lucian do this.
01:08:33Why not?
01:08:34Because.
01:08:35Because what?
01:08:36Tell me.
01:08:37Because he is Eric's father.
01:08:40What?
01:08:41What?
01:08:4299.7% match.
01:08:44Transfusion is not recommended.
01:08:46What does this mean?
01:08:47The patient's immunity is low.
01:08:49Blood from a close relative could be rejected or cause complications.
01:08:53As the child's father, you cannot delete.
01:08:58Father?
01:09:00Me.
01:09:02I'm that child's father.
01:09:03Sir, you brought him here yourself and didn't realize he was your child?
01:09:09I...
01:09:11I didn't know.
01:09:21Lisa, put out a public call for RH negative blood donors.
01:09:25Offer $100,000.
01:09:27Actually, offer a million dollars.
01:09:35Evelyn, you lied to me.
01:09:36How could you?
01:09:40My son.
01:09:43I have a son.
01:09:46How are you going to explain this?
01:09:53This is crazy.
01:09:55I have to call him.
01:09:57No, you cannot tell Lucian.
01:09:59No, you cannot tell Lucian.
01:10:02Eric is his son.
01:10:06I'm Lucian's ex-girlfriend.
01:10:08What?
01:10:09The taboo topic in the Lowell family.
01:10:13Huh.
01:10:14Makes perfect sense.
01:10:16I wonder why he acted all weird when he started showing up.
01:10:19Why he made that bet.
01:10:21So you're the one that broke his heart and soul.
01:10:24But why?
01:10:25Why keep it a secret?
01:10:27Why have him hate you?
01:10:30Because his father, Robert Lowell, told me that my criminal record was a stain on the Lowell family.
01:10:36And that if I were to have Lucian's child, that child would be taken away from me and raised by
01:10:41them.
01:10:42And I would rather that Lucian hate me than have Eric taken away from me.
01:10:48So please just don't tell him.
01:10:50I'm begging you.
01:10:52I won't.
01:10:54I understand.
01:10:59I don't agree.
01:11:03Lucian.
01:11:05How long were you standing there?
01:11:07Long enough to hear everything.
01:11:10I heard that Eric is my son.
01:11:12And that you're trying to deprive me of my rights as his father.
01:11:18I've got some nerve, by the way.
01:11:21I didn't have a choice.
01:11:23I can't lose Eric.
01:11:25He's my entire world.
01:11:27What about me?
01:11:28Am I disposable?
01:11:31You have your mother.
01:11:32You have your father.
01:11:33You have your family.
01:11:35All I have is Eric.
01:11:38I can't lose him.
01:11:40You've got me.
01:11:42You'll always have me.
01:11:44Alright?
01:11:45Trust me.
01:11:47I'll protect you.
01:11:49No one has taken Eric from you.
01:11:51Not my father.
01:11:52Not anyone else from my family.
01:11:54Okay?
01:11:59What about if your father or your family tries to take Eric?
01:12:04Are you going to stand up in court?
01:12:06If you do, the entire world is going to know that Eric's mother is a criminal.
01:12:11And if he's going to be ridiculed, I can't.
01:12:14I don't want that.
01:12:18I just want him to grow up in peace.
01:12:23I don't want him to be bullied because of me.
01:12:26I know it's so selfish.
01:12:27But I cannot lose him.
01:12:31I can't.
01:12:35Please.
01:12:37Leave us.
01:12:39Leave Eric.
01:12:40Don't stand up to the rules.
01:12:45Just don't drag us into this mess.
01:12:47Please.
01:12:51Okay.
01:12:54I'll do what you say.
01:12:57I'll leave you.
01:12:59Leave Eric.
01:13:00I'll marry someone else.
01:13:31I'll do what you say.
01:13:31I'll do what you say.
01:13:40Mr. Mao.
01:13:43Who asked you to forge my maternity test results?
01:13:46Tell me now or I'll kill you.
01:13:48It was Laura, your fiancée.
01:13:50She paid me $2 billion and asked me to notify her of the results.
01:13:55She really is something.
01:13:58Before you take the stand, you better stay somewhere safe.
01:14:04Guards! Take him.
01:14:18Lucian, I heard you had Laura's brother sent to jail.
01:14:22Yes.
01:14:24We're already formally engaged to the ladies.
01:14:27We're gonna marry Laura in a month.
01:14:28I hope you can withdraw your lawsuit to avoid tarnishing our image.
01:14:32Why didn't you ask the Langley family to drop Evelyn's charges six years ago?
01:14:36That was entirely different.
01:14:39That matter had been settled on.
01:14:40Is that so?
01:14:42You really think I'm better off marrying someone like Laura over Evelyn?
01:14:47At least Laura hasn't been to jail.
01:14:51Okay.
01:14:54I'll marry Laura next month.
01:14:55But on one condition.
01:14:58That she can bear me a child.
01:15:07Dear father, even though Laura's never been to jail,
01:15:11you'll see how easily she can destroy your precious family order.
01:15:17Really?
01:15:18Really, Mr. Lowell?
01:15:20Did Lucian really agree to marry me next month?
01:15:24Of course I can produce a Lowell heir.
01:15:28Did you hear that, Ma?
01:15:30I am gonna marry Lucian by the end of next month.
01:15:33Yeah.
01:15:34I also heard you promise the Lowell family an heir.
01:15:39Aren't you infertile?
01:15:40How are you gonna do that?
01:15:42Maybe I can't give birth, but...
01:15:45I have another child in mind.
01:15:50Are you serious?
01:15:53Lucian will kill me if I do that.
01:15:54No, he won't.
01:15:55Besides, once I get custody of the Lowell heir, it won't matter who the biological mother is, because I'll be
01:16:03the legal mother of the Lowell heir.
01:16:06And if they got you out of jail this time, definitely do it again.
01:16:09Just to protect their name.
01:16:11Plus, on side of my Lucian, I can help you clear all of your gambling debts.
01:16:18Deal.
01:16:21Okay, honey, so Mom has to go to work, and Uncle Vance is gonna take you to school, and then
01:16:25Mommy's gonna pick you up and get you ice cream, alright?
01:16:27Okay, Mommy.
01:16:31Vance, thank you so much for helping out with him, really.
01:16:34I don't know what I would do without you.
01:16:37I'm happy to help.
01:16:40Alright, bud. Time to go to school. Say goodbye to Mommy.
01:16:44Bye-bye, Mommy!
01:16:45Bye-bye!
01:16:47Bye, have fun!
01:16:56Evelyn?
01:17:00Eric, your mother has been missing for 24 hours.
01:17:04Okay, so for your safety, we're gonna have you stay with your Auntie Laura.
01:17:07She'll be your temporary guardian until we find your mother.
01:17:10Uncle Vance, save me! Mommy isn't missing! She was taken by the bad guys!
01:17:16Okay, bye. Let's go.
01:17:17Vance, you should know that Eric's aunt is the best candidate for temporary guardianship.
01:17:23I know, but...
01:17:24If nobody has any objections, I'll take the kit.
01:17:27Give me your hand, bud.
01:17:32Eric! Eric!
01:17:34No!
01:17:37Don't worry. I'll take good care of you.
01:17:52Guys, look, I'm gonna give you this chance. Evelyn's been kidnapped.
01:17:55I know. I've already tracked down the kidnapping.
01:17:58I know you love her.
01:17:59I can't pay with you.
01:18:00Let me correct you.
01:18:02She loves me, too.
01:18:03Enough drinking. You loser will be shark baited.
01:18:06Oh, don't worry. In a place like this, she can't run off.
01:18:09Drink. Drink up.
01:18:11Ah!
01:18:27Lucian!
01:18:29Shhh!
01:18:32The content side are passed out.
01:18:34They'll come to you in a minute.
01:18:35Listen to me now.
01:18:37Do you know what kidnapped you?
01:18:41It was Bob.
01:18:43I overheard him instructing them.
01:18:45Do you know why you kidnapped you?
01:18:48I guess my presence is just an eyesore to them or something.
01:18:53No.
01:18:54They want to take what you treasure most.
01:18:56Maura isn't able to have children alone.
01:18:59So, she wants to take yours.
01:19:02No, she can't!
01:19:03Shhh!
01:19:07Do you trust me?
01:19:13Next, I need you to answer these questions truthfully.
01:19:17Is Eric my son?
01:19:22Yes.
01:19:23Evie, I need you to tell me the truth so I can help you.
01:19:26Is Eric my son?
01:19:30Yes.
01:19:32Bob was the one who put you in jail six years ago.
01:19:34Wasn't he?
01:19:37Yes.
01:19:40Do you love me?
01:19:42Yes.
01:19:47I knew it.
01:19:49I knew you loved me.
01:19:51Somebody tell me.
01:19:54Where is there to...
01:19:58Okay.
01:20:00I have a plan to stop Laura from making Eric.
01:20:02I need you to be brave.
01:20:04Yeah, I'll do it.
01:20:05I'll do anything for Eric.
01:20:07Listen.
01:20:08You have to.
01:20:23Laura?
01:20:24You're the one who kidnapped me?
01:20:26Why?
01:20:28Let me count the reasons.
01:20:32You like my dress?
01:20:35You designed it six years ago for your wedding with Lucien.
01:20:38And now it's mine.
01:20:40Oh, look at this.
01:20:43Mommy isn't missing.
01:20:44She was taken by the bad guy.
01:20:46What did you do to my son?
01:20:49Give me back my son!
01:20:51Evelyn, your son is fine.
01:20:53Well, he's my son now, actually.
01:20:55He is the Lowell heir, after all.
01:20:59Oh, and look.
01:21:06It's your favorite church, Evelyn.
01:21:08I remember hearing you tell Lucien that you wanted to get married there.
01:21:12And now it's mine.
01:21:18Wait, you overheard.
01:21:21Six years ago our relationship was a secret.
01:21:24So how did you know, Laura?
01:21:26Oh!
01:21:28Now you're right.
01:21:29I accidentally walked by one of your dates.
01:21:33Otherwise I wouldn't have known that a broke bitch like you could actually be with the Lowell heir.
01:21:41So you've been in love with Lucien this entire time?
01:21:44No.
01:21:44No, not so much Lucien as I am in love with the powerful Lowell family.
01:21:50Their kind of wealth is something that my family would never be able to obtain on their own.
01:21:54And I want the best life for myself.
01:21:59Do you know why you went to jail six years ago, Evelyn?
01:22:03It's because you were the one thing in my life that was keeping me from my best life.
01:22:11So when Bob set me up six years ago, that was your idea?
01:22:16Well, of course.
01:22:17Bob's a moron, but at least he's useful.
01:22:20So he helped me put you in jail six years ago, and today he's going to take the fall for
01:22:25your murder.
01:22:25Are you insane? You've gone too far, Laura. That's your brother.
01:22:30Too far?
01:22:32Everybody has the right to pursue their own happiness, right?
01:22:36Ladies and gentlemen, please stand for the bride.
01:22:43Watch closely, my dear sister, while I marry the man that you so love.
01:22:51You're gonna pay for this, Laura.
01:22:53Pay what? The price for being a part of the wealthiest family?
01:22:59Oh, oh, and I almost forgot.
01:23:02So when that door closes, all of the oxygen in here will cease.
01:23:05So you have about two hours to survive, give or take.
01:23:09And while that happens, you get to watch while I marry Lucien.
01:23:14Or I'm gonna take your man and your child.
01:23:19And guess what?
01:23:20Spoiler!
01:23:21Bob's the killer!
01:23:23Laura!
01:23:24Laura!
01:23:25Laura!
01:23:29Where is the bride?
01:23:32So when Bob set me up six years ago, that was your idea?
01:23:35What is that sound?
01:23:37Well, of course!
01:23:39Bob's a moron, but at least he's useful.
01:23:41Oh my goodness, is that Evelyn Langley, the missing girl?
01:23:45What is she doing there?
01:23:49You peasants.
01:23:51Never seen such a luxurious woman.
01:23:54I guess what?
01:23:56Spoiler!
01:23:57Bob's the killer!
01:23:59Turn it off! Turn it off!
01:24:01Oh my goodness!
01:24:06Lucien!
01:24:07This is all just a big misunderstanding.
01:24:10Uh, let's please continue with the wedding.
01:24:15Lucien.
01:24:22Egan.
01:24:30I'm sorry.
01:24:33I regret everything.
01:24:35I thought that I could let you go.
01:24:37And that I could just wish you well.
01:24:39But I can't watch you marry another woman.
01:24:42Because you're mine.
01:24:44And you can only marry me.
01:24:46Because I love you.
01:24:48And I love you so much.
01:24:50I know.
01:24:52I can't watch you marry another woman.
01:24:52You did great.
01:24:53You did great.
01:25:24Okay.
01:25:25Vance.
01:25:25Get the footage from the storeroom.
01:25:27And use it to sue Laura for framing Evelyn six years ago.
01:25:31No, no, no.
01:25:31And for kidnapping and attempted murder.
01:25:35Evelyn, we were just joking.
01:25:37I was just joking.
01:25:38You have to believe me, Lucien.
01:25:40We were just playing hide and go seek.
01:25:43Evelyn?
01:25:46Save it for the jury, Laura.
01:25:50Bob!
01:25:51My brother!
01:25:52You can convince Lucien that I was just kidding.
01:25:56Right, Bob?
01:25:58I'm just a moron.
01:25:59Remember your scapegoat for murder?
01:26:05Robert!
01:26:06You once said that I was the perfect match for Lucien.
01:26:11The Lull family does not need a rich daughter-in-law,
01:26:14but a clean record.
01:26:15You framed your stepsister that had her sent to prison for six years
01:26:20just to steal her fiancé.
01:26:22Then, you kidnapped her and tried to murder her.
01:26:26It was broadcast worldwide.
01:26:28You're going away for a long time.
01:26:31Mom!
01:26:32No! No! No!
01:26:34No! No!
01:26:41I love you.
01:26:44I love you so much.
01:26:48I'll follow you in
01:26:53To the frontier of sin
01:26:57On our way now
01:27:01Any day now
01:27:05I'll follow you in
01:27:09To your touch on...
01:27:11To your touch on...
