00:05Mr. Wilson, Scorchy's too out of here.
00:10Make sure they never attend a Carlson Group appreciation party in the future.
00:13Who do you think you are?
00:15He. He's in charge.
00:17And he definitely has the right to determine who stays and who gets the boot.
00:23He's in charge?
00:24So he's head of purchasing for the Carlson Group?
00:28Fine.
00:30But this woman hit me.
00:31And I don't think you know what kind of monster she really is.
00:34I know her well enough.
00:36Well enough to know that if she hit you, you deserved it.
00:40She's full of lies.
00:42No, I bet she hasn't even told you that she's just a nursing home.
00:46Is she?
00:47And she was married once.
00:49She's my ex-wife.
00:52She's my ex-wife.
00:55Well, I think you should leave it right now.
00:59I'm going to go work, Brandon.
01:00I can promise you that.
01:03Get them out of here right now.
01:05She's still holding the earring.
01:26I'm sorry for them, ma'am.
01:27Are you hurt?
01:28I'm sorry.
01:33Everyone.
01:35I apologize for that brief interruption.
01:39This is my fiancée, Lulu Bridge.
01:43We are very much in love.
01:46We will be getting married shortly.
01:50I truly hope those two lunatics did not ruin your good time.
01:53Let's move on.
01:55Enjoy.
02:00Did I not make it clear?
02:03The contract states you are to pretend to be my fiancée
02:06and not cause any issues.
02:20Lay, take Lulu to her room.
02:22Make sure she gets a good night's rest.
02:23Of course, Mr. Carlson.
02:29Stephen, I need you to make sure there's no bad press from today.
02:32Absolutely.
02:33All inappropriate photos were removed from press cameras.
02:35They will simply say that the appreciation dinner was a success
02:38and a representative of the Carlson group attended with his fiancée.
02:42Very good.
02:49It's true what they say.
02:51Pregnant women really do have a bigger appetite.
03:10I don't know.
03:12I don't know.
03:17I don't know.
03:20I don't know.
03:22I don't know.
03:23I don't know.
03:24I don't know.
03:24I don't know.
03:24I don't know.
03:25I don't know.
03:26I don't know.
03:27I don't know.
03:27I don't know.
03:27I don't know.
03:29I don't know.
03:30I don't know.
03:32I don't know.
03:33I don't know.
03:34I don't know.
03:34I don't know.
03:35I don't know.
03:35I don't know.
03:35I don't know.
03:41What are you doing here?
03:43What are you doing here?
03:45Clearly you didn't read the contract properly.
03:49There's no reason for you to be in my room.
03:55But I'm in my room.
03:57Put it on.
04:05Oh, it was so dark in the hallway, I really thought I was walking into my room.
04:12This room is strictly forbidden.
04:17Don't make this mistake again.
04:19I won't.
04:21I promise.
04:23Why is she crying?
04:28Wait.
04:37Did it hurt?
04:38No.
04:40It's just a minor scrape from when the earring came off today.
04:43But it's fine now.
04:48Sit down.
04:49Oh.
04:57It's not necessary.
04:59It's just a small cut.
05:01It'll be healed by tomorrow.
05:01It could get infected if we don't take care of it.
05:11Why didn't she stop them when they did this to you?
05:15I...
05:17I was there as your date.
05:19So I didn't want to fight them in public.
05:22I thought if I held back I wouldn't get you in trouble.
05:25Why do I care so much when she gets hurt?
05:33Thank you, Mr. Carlson.
05:37I'm going to go back to my room now.
05:41Sure.
05:49I just...
05:50I can't believe how Lulu was suddenly engaged to that man from the Carlson group.
05:53I mean, how is that possible?
05:55Bitch.
05:55No, she must have tricked that guy somehow.
05:59He might have a decent job, but he's naive and easy to fool.
06:03Bet he wouldn't want to marry if we knew she was sterile.
06:05Oh.
06:06I knew you were smart.
06:09Is this the best the surrogacy agency is capable of?
06:12They find me a divorced woman to be my surrogacy.
06:14And her ex-husband, a total loser, right?
06:17Didn't even deserve her.
06:19Hmm.
06:20Why does he sound a bit jealous?
06:22Sir, we have very strict requirements for screening surrogate candidates.
06:26Age, height, health, appearance, intelligence.
06:29Ms. Bridges' overall qualifications are outstanding.
06:32Makes sense.
06:34Did she seem scared of me?
06:37Uh, that's not too surprising, sir.
06:40I mean, you can be a little intimidating most of the time.
06:45Except for when you smile.
06:50And yet you only smile for like twice a year.
06:53Well, maybe I should try smiling more around her then.
06:57After all, it's bad for the baby's health if she's emotionally distressed.
07:02Of course.
07:02It's all about the baby.
07:04Send her to me.
07:05I need to speak with her.
07:06Oh, and find out which suppliers her ex-husband is working with.
07:10I want to make sure we cut all of his ties to the Carlson group.
07:24You should try to relax a little bit.
07:27It's not good for the baby if you're too tense.
07:30Okay.
07:32We should probably get to know each other a little bit more.
07:35You have an awful ex-husband.
07:38Is there anything else I should know?
07:41Mr. Carlson, I'm really sorry about last night.
07:46Is there anything you would like to know about me?
07:49Uh, actually I want to know why you decided to get yourself a circuit.
07:54You could obviously find someone you love and really get married and have a baby.
07:59That way the child would have a happier childhood with both parents.
08:04With my financial stability, I can give this child the best education, the best care in the world.
08:09So, I don't think it matters if the child has both parents, does it?
08:15I don't think it matters.
08:17What matters is that this afternoon, you're going to meet my grandpa.
08:22And you're going to have to convince him that you and I are truly in love.
08:27Okay.
08:28I'll do my best.
08:30After all, that's what the contract says, right?
08:36Well, good. You're learning.
08:39Now go get dressed.
08:40Because today you must convince everyone that you are the real Mrs. Carlson.
08:51Millet, is Mr. Carlson always so cold?
08:54Oh no. You know, Mr. Carlson's always been a little bit stern.
08:58But Rose Miller definitely made him worse.
09:01Rose Miller, the actress?
09:02Yeah. She was his first love.
09:05Although she was not in love with him after they got engaged, she left him for a wealthy politician.
09:12But, Mr. Carlson is now far more wealthy and powerful than that politician, so it's her loss.
09:20So he's being so cold because he's still in love with Rose Miller?
09:30I mean, he didn't say as much, but that's what we're all guessing.
09:33What else would have kept him from falling in love again these past five years?
09:37Then why did he decide to suddenly have a baby and find someone to pretend to be his wife?
09:42Now that is the old Mr. Carlson, the grandfather.
09:47So, he declares that he needs a wife and children in order to officially hand over the business to him.
09:55Okay, so I'm just the tool he needs to get his inheritance.
10:00I see.
10:07You're here. What a pleasant surprise.
10:11Grandfather.
10:13This is my fiancee.
10:15Oh, so nice to finally meet you in person.
10:20David tells me you're pregnant with my great-grandchild.
10:24Is that true?
10:25Yes, it's true.
10:28That's wonderful.
10:29And you're truly in love, yes?
10:34Very much so.
10:36Every time I see them, all of my worries fade away.
10:40It's like I forget myself.
10:41My soul becomes one with hers.
10:45Wow.
10:46His acting is good. I really love that.
10:51My soul becomes one with hers.
10:55I can't believe that David has let someone into his cold heart of stone.
11:02Oh, my busy Vice President's son has finally come home to see his family.
11:08Mother, why did you bring her here?
11:11Hey, Rose is basically a member of the family.
11:15Rose Miller?
11:16His Rose?
11:18And I saw on the news that she was back in town.
11:21And I thought, how lovely if we could all get together here.
11:25Just like this.
11:28David, you are more handsome than you were five years ago.
11:32This is my fiancee.
11:35Lulu.
11:36Oh.
11:38Let me meet my replacement, then.
11:41Or should I say, the new Mrs. Carlson?
11:44What the hell are you even talking about?
11:46You were never Mrs. Carlson.
11:50It's nice to meet you, Rose.
11:54So, Lulu.
11:56What's your occupation?
11:58Oh, I'm a nurse aide.
12:00A nurse aide?
12:02I'm afraid that's going to hurt the Carlson's family's reputation, isn't it?
12:07Wow.
12:09You're one to talk about reputation, considering the fact that five years ago when you broke off our engagement, you
12:15humiliated the entire Carlson family.
12:19If you're going to be here, we're going to leave. Grandpa?
12:21I believe nursing is a wonderful profession.
12:25No, what I meant, Grandpa, was...
12:27Rose Miller, if I remember correctly, you didn't even have a job when you and David started dating.
12:34In fact, David introduced you to acting, didn't he?
12:39If you're here just to embarrass my future granddaughter-in-law, you're not welcome.
12:48I just remembered I have something to take care of, so I'll go.
12:56See you some other time, Lulu.
13:05See you some other time, Lulu.
13:07Actually, I am curious, Lulu.
13:10What family are you from?
13:15Or...
13:16What does your family do for business?
13:24I'm not from a known family, ma'am.
13:26Oh.
13:27Mother, I am simply here to introduce you to my fiancé.
13:32Small talk isn't appreciated.
13:34Actually, I lost my parents when I was very young.
13:37So sometimes I get jealous that David has such a wonderful mother and grandfather and a big, loving family.
13:45Especially since I see so many good qualities in David.
13:49I know that it must have taken such a big effort from his mother to raise him.
13:53Linda, you must teach me how to raise my child in the future.
13:58Well, it's getting late, Grandpa.
14:01Nonsense!
14:02The maid has your own room made up.
14:04Stay the night, leave in the morning.
14:10If that's what you want?
14:11Please.
14:19Don't worry, I'll leave the room once you go to sleep.
14:29I didn't bring my pajamas.
14:40This is mine, put it on.
14:44Thank you, Mr. Carlson.
14:49Goodnight.
14:50You too, Mr. Carlson.
14:56Welcome.
14:59What's going on?
15:03My grandfather doesn't believe that you're actually pregnant, so he's locking us in here just in case.
15:09What's that supposed to mean?
15:13He wants me to sleep with you just to make sure.
15:17Why would he do that?
15:20Don't worry, it's not going to happen.
15:36Oh, my God.
15:38This must be the pregnancy hormones kicking in.
15:41But he looks crazy sexy right now.
15:43Oh, God.
15:45What am I going to do?
15:47I'm just going to sleep on the couch.
15:49The bed isn't very big.
15:53If you think that I'm going to let anyone, let alone my pregnant servant, sleep on the couch, there's no
16:00way.
16:03If you're uncomfortable sleeping in my bed, then I'll sleep on the couch.
16:07That's not what I meant.
16:10Why are you so afraid of me?
16:14I'm not.
16:19Then why is your heart beating so fast?
16:23I don't know.
16:25Relax.
16:28There's no need to be nervous around me.
16:34You carry me witless, I float in your grasp.
16:43Relentless.
16:44Your eyes fight to line up with my nose.
16:48What's in your shoes, skit row, skit row-
16:52When I think about the world and me at midnight.
16:58And I wonder how those years have disappeared.
17:04Should I jump into the-
17:07Contract, Mr Carlson, what are we doing?
17:10I'm sorry.
17:12I don't know what came over me.
17:16I'll make sure to compensate you for overstepping my boundaries on the contract.
17:28Why did he kiss me?
17:29Does he actually have feelings for me?
17:34Steven, deposit an extra $100,000 into Lulu's account.
17:37It's to compensate her for my behavior.
17:39I exceeded the terms of the contract.
17:41I get it. I'll take care of it.
17:44Steven, I wanted to ask you something.
17:48You have a good relationship with women, right?
17:50Me?
17:52I'm not a womanizer, sir, but I haven't had time for a real relationship in a long time.
17:58All thanks to you, Mr. Workaholic.
18:01Well, I wanted to talk to you about something.
18:03I have a friend who, uh, he's having strange feelings for a woman.
18:08He's not quite sure what they are.
18:11Sure, of course he's a friend of yours.
18:13He's having strange feelings for a woman.
18:16He's not quite sure what they are.
18:19Uh, tell me about it. I'll see what I can do.
18:21Well, it all started out normal, and then he began to feel bad every time she would cry.
18:28Well, he doesn't want her to be so scared of him.
18:31It was supposed to be a professional business partnership between the two of them.
18:36It just seems unprofessional on her part, you know?
18:38But what happened?
18:40Well, he, um, he kissed her.
18:44It was just a kiss. There was nothing more.
18:47But things have been awkward between the two of them.
18:50Ever since the kiss, I don't know.
18:54What do you think, Stephen?
18:55Well, based on what you've said, I think he's in love with her.
19:02What?
19:04No.
19:05No, he's a professional man.
19:07There's a professional business partnership between the two of them.
19:10They're forbidden to fall in love.
19:11In fact, they're not even supposed to see each other ever again once the contract ends.
19:16I understand that.
19:17But sometimes love just happens, and it's not something that you can control.
19:26So that's why I suggest that your friend have a good, honest talk with this woman
19:30to see if she feels the same way about him.
19:34What if she doesn't?
19:35Well, then apologize for the inappropriate kiss.
19:38But after that, your friend won't regret it.
19:43And if she does feel the same way, then they can change the terms of the contract
19:50and the restriction on when the contract ends.
19:56I assume you received your $100,000 payment?
20:00Yes.
20:01But I read the contract, and I thought the next payment wasn't due for another two months.
20:07It was compensation for that little accident last night.
20:14Oh, you're talking about that.
20:18I guess it's because you had a drink with your grandfather, and we had to play the loving
20:24couple, so maybe you got a bit too caught up in the acting?
20:28I've already forgotten.
20:30If only I could forget about it.
20:33That was the sweetest kiss I've ever had in my life.
20:35Well, I asked you to dinner because I wanted to talk to you.
20:39Sorry.
20:39Would you give me a second?
20:41I need to use the restroom.
20:43Silly pregnancy habit.
20:55You're dating him behind my back, aren't you, you bitch?
20:59What are you doing here?
21:00I'm on a date with Emery.
21:01What's the problem?
21:03When we were married, you always said we couldn't afford a restaurant this fancy.
21:11What are you trying to do?
21:13You know, I never knew you could be so divy.
21:16You let your fiancé use his power to get the Carlson Group to cancel all business with
21:20my company?
21:22I didn't even know my ex-husband had a company.
21:25Oh, you think you're smart enough to get back at me?
21:28Just wait and see.
21:30You won't get away with this.
21:36Sorry about that.
21:37What were you going to say?
21:39What do you mean by this?
21:43You're wearing the same clothes that you're wearing right now.
21:45Was this today?
21:46Just now, on the way to the restroom.
21:48So you ran into him and you decided to give him a kiss?
21:50No, I didn't kiss him.
21:51Who took that?
21:52It doesn't matter who took this.
21:55What matters is you're a divorced woman and you think it's okay to give this guy a hug.
22:00Mr. Carlson, are you angry because this photo can be seen by your grandfather?
22:05And it will affect your plans to inherit the family business?
22:08Or are you angry about any intimacy between me and my ex-husband?
22:12So you admit it, there's intimacy between the two of you.
22:15Mr. Carlson.
22:17I don't think you've read the contract very clearly.
22:20No one else is allowed to touch you other than me.
22:22Do you understand?
22:23As far as I'm concerned, your entire body belongs to me.
22:26Is that clear?
22:27Mr. Carlson.
22:29I'm not an object you can possess.
22:32I won't warn you again.
22:46Mr. Carlson.
22:47I should have listened to you.
22:50Wow.
22:53David decided to join us tonight.
22:55He must have something special going on.
22:57I mean, I heard he got engaged and brought his fiancee to meet his grandfather,
22:59But uh, it's getting cold feet and whatever is bothering you relax, man. You know, I know what will ease
23:06your mind
23:06Hey, bring me some of the best dancers you've got
23:08Hey
23:10I like this
23:28Yes
23:35Why that drunk?
23:40No, you need to sober up. She didn't care about her. She's just my surrogate. Does she really like being
23:46with her ex-husband?
23:47Oh, no.
23:49Yo, hey. Where are you going?
23:54No.
23:55What are you doing?
23:56You're an replacement, bitch.
23:58No, get away from me.
23:59Of course, don't you ever touch me again.
24:04Oh, no.
24:05No!
24:07Oh, no.
24:08Oh, thank God.
24:09It was just a nightmare.
24:12Mr. Carlson.
24:14Who was in your nightmare?
24:16There was Alex and...
24:19And who else?
24:22And Rose.
24:24Rose.
24:27What are you doing, Mr. Carlson?
24:29I'm taking you to my room.
24:31What?
24:32You have to move into my room. It's perfectly in line with the contract.
24:36Isn't that a bit dramatic? It was just one nightmare.
24:39You clearly don't understand the clause of the contract.
24:43It is my responsibility to protect you, whether you like it or not.
24:47You want to protect me even from my own nightmares?
24:56If you're screaming in your sleep, you could get hurt.
24:59Why is he so hot all of a sudden?
25:10Mr. Carlson.
25:11Stop calling me Mr. Carlson.
25:13Call me David.
25:15All right.
25:17To be fair, I'll let you in on a little secret.
25:20My full name is actually Luciana Bridge.
25:24What?
26:01I'm going to take the couch in my own room.
26:11Good night.
26:22What are you doing?
26:23Just go to sleep.
26:24But...
26:25Shh.
26:51Is there something on my face?
26:55Do you not like my makeup?
26:57Can't she tell how gorgeous she looks?
27:00You look beautiful.
27:02Oh.
27:08Uh, sir, the organizing committee has a couple questions for you.
27:13Stay here.
27:14I'll be right back.
27:19Oh, so this is what it's like to be upper class.
27:25Walk on the red carpet and partying with celebrities.
27:29Alex, how did you get in here?
27:30You know, it wasn't easy getting a press pass and it took a lot of effort finding you.
27:36Man, wow.
27:38Look at you, Lulu, the rich.
27:40Thought my eyes deceived me from across the room.
27:42But...
27:43I mean, since when did you start dressing like this?
27:47Alex, can you leave?
27:49Last time you caused me so much trouble.
27:51I mean, you never dress like this when we were together.
27:54If I had known how hot you actually are, I would have never...
27:57Never what?
27:59Never cheated on me with my best friend?
28:01Oh, come on.
28:02You know exactly why I chose Emery over you.
28:07Hey, uh...
28:08You think if I told your fiancé that you're infertile that he'd still want to marry you?
28:15Are you threatening me?
28:18You should be more worried about your own fertility than mine.
28:23What do you mean?
28:26Well, the lab results show that your sperm activity is too low to impregnate any woman at all.
28:31Okay, well now you're just talking nonsense and it is obviously your problem.
28:36Because Emery is pregnant with my child.
