00:00:00See if Leo Christopher still wants to marry me now.
00:00:03What is that on your face?
00:00:05No one has time for your little games, Vivian.
00:00:08No husband, no inheritance.
00:00:10Bunch of freeloading parasites.
00:00:13Daddy, she's lost it.
00:00:15Excuse me, what are you doing in my room?
00:00:19We never had a chance to get properly introduced.
00:00:22Aaron Christopher.
00:00:23Contract marriage, one year.
00:00:25Help me get back my mother's inheritance.
00:00:27Your husband?
00:00:30For my mother's will, I'm officially stepping in as CEO of Lawrence Corp.
00:00:34Is this what we want as the face of our company?
00:00:38You'll make a great husband someday.
00:00:40I already am a great husband.
00:00:43Aaron mentioned that Steven was responsible for his accident.
00:00:48Steven hurt his own brother? That's absurd.
00:00:50Once we can get that footage to the team at Lawrence Corp, we can end this.
00:00:54It's such a shame a woman like you.
00:00:56He's on a man like Aaron.
00:00:57Keep your hands to yourself.
00:01:05I heard his heart belongs to someone else.
00:01:08You can't do this to me!
00:01:09Watch me!
00:01:17Let's see if Leo Christopher still wants to marry me now.
00:01:29You're Vivian Lawrence?
00:01:31Oh God, what is that on your face?
00:01:34You know, you look nothing like your profile pic.
00:01:37More like a warthog with a trust fund.
00:01:40You think I want this marriage?
00:01:42Please.
00:01:42But I did enjoy your dad and stepmom begging me on their knees to show up today.
00:01:48Pathetic.
00:02:09Get out!
00:02:10Don't make this hard for me!
00:02:14Tell her to forget about drugging me and shipping me off to Mary that creep, Leo!
00:02:17Excuse me. What are you doing in my room?
00:02:23Whoa. Abs?
00:02:25Test on an answer.
00:02:28Sorry, I, um...
00:02:30Are you okay?
00:02:31Someone's trying to get me, um...
00:02:36Get out.
00:02:37I said get out!
00:02:46You okay?
00:02:48Mm-hmm.
00:02:56Wait.
00:02:58Do you know who I am?
00:03:00A really, really hot guy.
00:03:09Yeah.
00:03:33Vivian, where the hell are you?
00:03:42You know how many strings I had to pull to get you a date with a member of the Christopher
00:03:46family?
00:03:46You're meeting him in an hour. Do not be late.
00:03:50Dad, we need to talk about this.
00:03:54Oh my god. Did I just have a one night stand with a complete stranger?
00:04:00Shit. He's coming out. I need to get out of here.
00:04:13Let's pretend this never happened. No hard feelings. Last night was magnificent.
00:04:25Yeah.
00:04:28Yeah, I remember the arranged date. I'll be there to check it out.
00:04:47Thanks for stopping by. But your services won't be needed.
00:04:52I've already found my husband.
00:04:58I've already found my husband.
00:05:05Is that so?
00:05:07Leo, try not to embarrass the family.
00:05:09Besides, is that how Christopher treats his future aunt?
00:05:13My apologies, dear uncle.
00:05:16After all, with your impairment...
00:05:22You're being visually challenging.
00:05:24Maybe you are a match made in heaven.
00:05:27Didn't I hear that you were in Vegas last week?
00:05:30Tell me.
00:05:31How much of your trust fund did you gamble away this time?
00:05:35You know, I've been meaning to call your mother and...
00:05:38Check in.
00:05:40Say hi.
00:05:43My apologies for the misunderstanding.
00:05:47It's nice meeting you.
00:05:55There's no way.
00:05:57I remember...
00:05:59Last night...
00:06:02This can't be the same person.
00:06:06It looks just like her.
00:06:14But that scar...
00:06:17We never had a chance to get properly introduced.
00:06:20Aaron Christopher.
00:06:21Vivian, your future wife.
00:06:25I'm sorry, is that a real proposition?
00:06:28More like...
00:06:29Destiny.
00:06:30Don't you think?
00:06:33Terms?
00:06:34Contract marriage.
00:06:36One year.
00:06:37You helped me get back my mother's inheritance.
00:06:43Done.
00:06:44But I also have a condition we'll need to discuss.
00:06:53Morning, Dad.
00:06:55You look happy to see me.
00:06:56No one has time for your little games, Vivian.
00:07:00Vivian.
00:07:01Leo just called.
00:07:02Needless to say, he was...
00:07:04Not impressed.
00:07:06To be honest, he said you were...
00:07:08Ugly.
00:07:09And uncultured.
00:07:11Can't blame him.
00:07:12If I were a guy with his pedigree,
00:07:14I wouldn't be caught dead with you.
00:07:16I was really hoping this one would work out.
00:07:19Well, I guess no husband.
00:07:23No inheritance.
00:07:25And now that you're done embarrassing the family name,
00:07:29be useful for once, Vivian.
00:07:31Please leave this house.
00:07:33This is my mother's house.
00:07:35If anyone's gonna get the hell out, it's you.
00:07:38Bunch of freeloading parasites.
00:07:43Daddy, she's lost it.
00:07:44Vivian, are you insane?
00:07:47Get the hell out.
00:07:49One more thing.
00:07:51Mom left me 50% of Lawrence Corp.
00:07:54So guess what, Daddy?
00:07:57That makes me the boss here.
00:08:07No.
00:08:12That is impossible.
00:08:14Leo said...
00:08:15Who said Leo was my only option?
00:08:19Aaron Christopher?
00:08:21Who the hell is that?
00:08:24Leo's uncle.
00:08:26Paralyzed in an accident years ago,
00:08:28became a total recluse and hasn't amounted to much ever since.
00:08:32Wow.
00:08:33Congratulations, Vivian.
00:08:35Looks like you found yourself a real winner.
00:08:48Boss, we finally have a lead on the accident from five years ago.
00:08:52Our team managed to find the original surveillance footage.
00:08:54That took long enough.
00:08:57Seems like someone is really trying to bury this.
00:08:59Once I have the evidence that I need, Steven is finished.
00:09:03It's still amazing that you spent all these years faking an injury.
00:09:06Had your whole family thinking you'd given up.
00:09:08Meanwhile, you're building an entire empire from the shadows of Zex.
00:09:11That's not just Revenge Boss.
00:09:13That's art.
00:09:15That's justice.
00:09:16But there's only one problem.
00:09:18Steven's team wiped everything.
00:09:19Not a trace.
00:09:22There's always a trace.
00:09:24You ever heard of Lawrence Corp?
00:09:26Yeah.
00:09:27Big tech giant owns Skynet.
00:09:29They have something to do with data restoration.
00:09:32Exactly.
00:09:33Guess who just took over as their new CEO?
00:09:43For my mother's will, I'm officially stepping in as CEO of Lawrence Corp.
00:09:48This is absolute nonsense.
00:09:50Vivian isn't qualified for this.
00:09:51And frankly, is this what we want as the face of our company?
00:09:55We're asking for a PR nightmare.
00:09:57And let's not forget, her new husband, Aaron Christopher,
00:10:00not exactly bringing much to the table.
00:10:03Do you want this company to become a total laughing stock?
00:10:06Vivian, the board has concerns about your leadership.
00:10:09There's no proof you're ready for this.
00:10:13Unless you can prove your worth.
00:10:16Land a contract with Everest Capital in the next three days,
00:10:20and we'll reconsider.
00:10:23This is ridiculous.
00:10:25We're just wasting time.
00:10:29Consider it done.
00:10:40Vivian, sweetie.
00:10:42Everest Capital's run by the most powerful man in the world.
00:10:45X.
00:10:46The guy's practically a ghost.
00:10:48What makes you think you have a shot at getting in a room with him?
00:10:51I guess we'll find out.
00:10:53Vivian, please.
00:10:54Yeah, Vivian.
00:10:55What's her big plan?
00:10:55Lurman to bed and pegging for a contract?
00:10:58Oh, please.
00:10:59Like she'd even hesitate.
00:11:00She's probably dreaming about it already.
00:11:02Poor girl needs the attention.
00:11:03.
00:11:09Hey babe.
00:11:10Thought you might need a lift.

00:13:49aren't can i come in
00:13:56Aaron, can I come in?
00:14:01I thought you'd be in bed.
00:14:05You must be tired after such a crazy day.
00:14:11I was thinking bathing must be tricky for you.
00:14:15As your wife, I thought maybe I could help.
00:14:20Uh, I appreciate that, but thanks.
00:14:24I got it.
00:14:44Maybe I could help you get on dress?
00:14:47Yes. Um, I know that we're married now, but this is a little fast, isn't it?
00:15:02Why don't you let me?
00:15:28Vivian, you're Scar.
00:15:39Vivian, you're Scar.
00:15:40I'm sorry.
00:15:44So this is the real you?
00:15:48That night, it was you.
00:15:53I wasn't trying to fool you.
00:15:56The scar's been sort of a protection for me ever since my mom died.
00:16:04Since my stepmother and her daughter came into the picture, it was easier to just disappear.
00:16:12I was no longer a threat to them.
00:16:17I'm sorry.
00:16:18You don't have to explain.
00:16:21I get it.
00:16:27Where are you going?
00:16:29Uh, like you said, it's been a long day.
00:16:33I should probably get to bed.
00:16:36I was thinking, uh...
00:16:38You were right.
00:16:39It is just our first night.
00:16:57Aaron.
00:17:01Who the hell gave you permission to get married?
00:17:14It's my marriage.
00:17:15It's my life.
00:17:16I don't need your approval.
00:17:18Ever since that accident, you've changed.
00:17:22You're...
00:17:23Go on.
00:17:24Say it.
00:17:26You know what, Dad?
00:17:27Even if I never walk again, even if I never meet your expectations, at least I know what
00:17:33I'm with.
00:17:33You still resent me, don't you?
00:17:35The board chose Steven as my successor.
00:17:37That was never my decision.
00:17:39All I ever wanted was that you two look out for one another.
00:17:42Wake up, Dad.
00:17:44My half-brother wants me dead.
00:17:45You always misjudge him.
00:17:47He is a good man and a good brother to work.
00:17:49He has turned the whole family against me.
00:17:50That's enough about your brother.
00:17:53Fine.
00:17:54This marriage is a done deal.
00:17:56At least promise me you'll treat your wife well.
00:17:59Spoil her.
00:17:59Take her out on a proper date.
00:18:03I always wished I was a better husband to your mother.
00:18:07Don't mess this up.
00:18:16You wanted to see me, boss?
00:18:18William, I need your advice.
00:18:21You go on a lot of dates, right?
00:18:23You want my advice?
00:18:25Of course.
00:18:26Happy to help.
00:18:27Great.
00:18:29Um...
00:18:29How do you plan a really memorable date?
00:18:32Who's the lucky lady?
00:18:34My wife.
00:18:34Who else would it be?
00:18:35We could do worse.
00:18:37Like, kidding.
00:18:38I got you, boss.
00:18:39Don't worry.
00:18:41Okay.
00:18:43Where do we start?
00:18:46Okay, Mr. Mysterious.
00:18:48What's the big surprise?
00:18:51Okay, Mr. Mysterious.
00:18:53What's the big surprise?
00:18:56Okay, Mr. Mysterious.
00:18:56I swear, if this is some sort of prank...
00:18:59Be patient.
00:19:01Okay, you can take off your blindfold now.
00:19:15Do you really think a perfect romantic evening will win me over?
00:19:20Because it might.
00:19:23I just want to prove to you that I am the most romantic contract husband you will ever have.
00:19:30You know this isn't necessary, right?
00:19:32I was just kidding about the private chef.
00:19:35As long as we are married, I'm going to treat you right.
00:19:43Well, in that case, dear husband, I do have one complaint.
00:19:50This steak, not as good as yours.
00:19:54Your complaint is noted.
00:19:55Good.
00:19:56I'll cook for you tomorrow, but in the meantime...
00:19:59Happy one week.
00:20:01Anniversary.
00:20:33You know, you'll make a great husband someday.
00:20:36I already am a great husband.
00:20:38Well, you're certainly full of surprises.
00:20:42What are you doing?
00:20:45These shoes are torture.
00:20:47Shouldn't wear those.
00:20:48Here.
00:20:50A gift.
00:20:53I want you to feel like you can always be comfortable around me.
00:20:58You know my size?
00:21:02I know.
00:21:03Everything about you.
00:21:11For everything.
00:21:14That's all for you.
00:21:16No you?
00:21:18What?
00:21:21What?
00:21:22No.
00:21:35No.
00:21:37No.
00:21:37No.
00:21:38No.
00:21:39No.
00:21:40No.
00:21:42No.
00:21:43No.
00:21:47It might be one time.
00:21:48I just thought I'd give you a break.
00:21:50I don't have to worry about me.
00:22:14Aaron, did your leg just move?
00:22:22Aaron, did your leg just move?
00:22:26I swear his leg just moved.
00:22:28Is that even possible?
00:22:35Aaron.
00:22:37Morning.
00:22:39Good morning.
00:22:40I had no idea my wife was so affectionate.
00:22:44I was just stretching.
00:22:47Stretching, huh?
00:22:50You need a little sexy morning workout?
00:22:55Happy to help?
00:22:56I think we did enough of that last night, don't you think?
00:23:00Did we?
00:23:12Come to the office.
00:23:13I've got a secret that'll blow your mind.
00:23:28What's all this about?
00:23:29Vivian, sweetie, has your perfect husband told you about his first love?
00:23:35He may be married to you, but I heard his heart belongs to someone else.
00:23:43It doesn't matter.
00:23:45He's my husband, whether he loves me or not.
00:23:49You really are delusional.
00:23:53Ashley, why don't you focus on yourself?
00:23:55Start working on your resume, because the first thing I'm doing when I'm CEO is firing dead weight, like you.
00:24:05You're not going to get away with this.
00:24:07That'll be all.
00:24:08You're dismissed.
00:24:12So, Erin does have a first love.
00:24:16Whatever.
00:24:17Back to business.
00:24:20I can't make dinner tonight.
00:24:22Meeting Everest's rep at the office.
00:24:25Wish me luck.
00:24:32Mom, we can't let Vivian secure this Everest deal.
00:24:36If she does, we're finished.
00:24:38Relax, darling.
00:24:40Everest's rep, Ralph, he has a particular kink.
00:24:45And Vivian is exactly his time.
00:24:49Oh, this is getting good.
00:24:56No new leads on Steven.
00:24:59Our team tried tracking down additional surveillance from the night of the accident.
00:25:02No luck.
00:25:04I've waited five years at this point.
00:25:06That's a little bit longer.
00:25:09Once Vivian's able to secure Lawrence Corp, we'll have everything we need to recover the footage.
00:25:13There's something else.
00:25:15The woman who saved your life that night, we might finally have a lead on her.
00:25:20Find her.
00:25:21Whatever it takes.
00:25:24Who's handling the Everest meeting tonight with Vivian?
00:25:30Ralph.
00:25:33Get the car.
00:25:35We need to go now.
00:25:44To a successful partnership.
00:25:48Before we finalize anything,
00:25:49I want to see how enthusiastic you are about this deal.
00:25:57Our latest proposal.
00:25:58Not what I meant.
00:26:00I prefer a more personal approach.
00:26:04Your scar is such a turn-on for me, Miss Lawrence.
00:26:07Please.
00:26:08Don't touch me.
00:26:09Relax.
00:26:10Let's toast to a real partnership.
00:26:13Get off me.
00:26:14Get off me.
00:26:16Get back here.
00:26:19Eric.
00:26:23Mr. X.
00:26:26Ralph.
00:26:29You really crossed the line this time.
00:26:35You really crossed the line this time.
00:26:38Mr. X.
00:26:39I swear, it was her.
00:26:41She was trying to steal our company's secrets.
00:26:43She attacked me.
00:26:44That is my wife.
00:26:45If she wanted this company,
00:26:47she would already have it.
00:26:49Mr. X, I didn't know.
00:26:50I was just following orders.
00:26:53Whose orders?
00:26:56Ashley Lawrence.
00:27:00Call the lawyers.
00:27:02Take his confession.
00:27:04Every single word.
00:27:06And William.
00:27:07Make sure I never see his face at Everest again.
00:27:27X?
00:27:28Last night.
00:27:31How did I get home?
00:27:35CEO from Everest Capital brought you.
00:27:38How you feeling?
00:27:40Like I got hit by a truck?
00:27:42Yes.
00:27:44Wait, so it was X?
00:27:45Do you know him?
00:27:47No.
00:27:48Why would I know him?
00:27:49I don't know.
00:27:50I remember.
00:27:52He was tall.
00:27:53Broad shoulders.
00:27:57Actually looks a lot like you.
00:28:00Okay.
00:28:01Your legs.
00:28:02Are they better?
00:28:03I swear the other day I felt them move.
00:28:07You know, I love your optimism,
00:28:09but I'm afraid you're going to be stuck with me
00:28:11just the way I am.
00:28:12You know I didn't mean it like that.
00:28:14I know.
00:28:14I'm just teasing you.
00:28:16So I guess I didn't sign the deal with Everest Capital.
00:28:20If I can't secure this partnership,
00:28:21I'll lose my claim to Lawrence Corp.
00:28:30Wait.
00:28:32What?
00:28:37What?
00:28:42That was Everest Capital.
00:28:45X agreed to sign the deal.
00:28:50This deal?
00:28:52You brought it back with you last night.
00:28:54But why?
00:28:56Why would X agree to work with me?
00:28:57I didn't even get a chance to tell him about the proposal.
00:29:00Don't question it.
00:29:03Obviously, he wants this partnership.
00:29:05I just kind of wish I could have helped you out
00:29:07the way that X did.
00:29:09Well, it doesn't matter.
00:29:10Once I get back Lawrence Corp,
00:29:12everything will be different.
00:29:14No matter what happens,
00:29:16I'm always going to be by your side.
00:29:21It's time.
00:29:39She's late.
00:29:40There's no way she closed the deal.
00:29:42Told you.
00:29:43Everest Capital doesn't work with nobody's.
00:29:48Given the circumstances,
00:29:50I'll be resuming my position as CEO.
00:29:54Who said I failed?
00:29:59Given the circumstances,
00:30:00I'll be resuming my position as CEO.
00:30:03Who said I failed?
00:30:06Per our agreement,
00:30:08I signed the deal with Everest Capital.
00:30:10Which means I run Lawrence Corp now.
00:30:14Where's your scar?
00:30:15Yeah, that was fake.
00:30:18No, this is impossible.
00:30:20You weren't even supposed to come back.
00:30:21You mean after your little setup?
00:30:23Sending Ralph after me?
00:30:25Cute.
00:30:26Really.
00:30:27Enough.
00:30:27Stop this nonsense.
00:30:29We have here an official statement
00:30:30from the CEO of Everest
00:30:31confirming that Ashley Lawrence
00:30:33instructed Ralph
00:30:34to harass her business partner,
00:30:35Vivian Lawrence.
00:30:36Everest Capital has entered in
00:30:37a permanent partnership
00:30:39with Lawrence Corp
00:30:40under Vivian's leadership.
00:30:42So Mr. David Lawrence,
00:30:43Ashley Lawrence,
00:30:44you're both blacklisted.
00:30:45You're both officially removed
00:30:46from Lawrence Corp.
00:30:48Effective immediately.
00:30:49No, you're not going to get away with this.
00:30:51I'm your father.
00:30:52No, no, no.
00:30:52You can't do this to me.
00:30:55Watch me.
00:31:02What's all this for?
00:31:04Our wedding was rushed,
00:31:05so I figured it's time
00:31:07that my bride gets what she deserves.
00:31:12An exquisite choice.
00:31:14We had this be specifically restored
00:31:15to Mr. X's request.
00:31:18X?
00:31:20I mean, Mr. Christopher, of course.
00:31:24Silly me.
00:31:25Slipped of the tongue.
00:31:27Here, try it on.
00:31:33It's beautiful.
00:31:35It suits you.
00:31:37This ruby's gorgeous.
00:31:39It must have cost...
00:31:40Don't worry about it.
00:31:42You deserve the best.
00:31:46Aaron, I...
00:31:47I heard about your first...
00:31:49Sorry.
00:31:51Yeah.
00:31:53What?
00:31:54You found her.
00:31:56I'll be right there.
00:31:57I have to take care of something.
00:31:59You keep going.
00:32:01I'll be back.
00:32:03I'll be back.
00:32:14This isn't just a necklace,
00:32:16Mrs. Christopher.
00:32:17This is a symbol
00:32:18of eternal love.
00:32:20It must mean a lot to him.
00:32:21Absolutely.
00:32:23Mr. Christopher had this restored
00:32:24five years ago.
00:32:26Said it was meant
00:32:26for his future wife.
00:32:29Five years ago?
00:32:31This wasn't meant for me.
00:32:33It was for her.
00:32:35His first love.
00:32:40We found her.
00:32:41The woman who saved your life that night.
00:32:43Oh, my God.
00:32:49Hey!
00:32:55Hey, stay with me.
00:32:57Vivian?
00:32:58It was you?
00:33:09I can't keep this.
00:33:15Why not?
00:33:16It was meant for your first love, wasn't it?
00:33:18It doesn't matter.
00:33:20This belongs to you now.
00:33:26Our marriage has always just been a contract.
00:33:29Now that I have Lauren's court back, I'll fulfill my end of the deal.
00:33:34We'll start making arrangements tomorrow.
00:33:37That really sounds like you're trying to get rid of me.
00:33:40I know you've always had a first love.
00:33:43Maybe one day you'll go find her.
00:33:45I don't want to be standing in the way.
00:33:49Well, since we are still married for the time being,
00:33:53maybe there's something you can help me out with.
00:33:58Well, what did you have in mind?
00:34:19Do you like what you see?
00:34:25Do you like what you see?
00:34:27I guess the accident didn't stop you from staying in shape.
00:34:32You're not so bad yourself.
00:34:58Maybe this isn't the best time.
00:35:01You should go before I forget how to behave myself.
00:35:12I forgot my...
00:35:14...trakuit.
00:35:23Wait, did he just stand?
00:35:26No.
00:35:28Impossible.
00:35:30Unless he's hiding something.
00:35:33Maybe it's time I dropped by his office unannounced.
00:35:45Mr. X.
00:35:46At Christopher Group.
00:35:48It's just Aaron.
00:35:49Some new developments from the PI firm about Stephen's involvement in the accident.
00:35:52But without the recovered footage, I'm afraid we still don't have a case.
00:35:56Yeah, I'm working on that.
00:35:58Once we can get that footage to the team at Lawrence Corp,
00:36:00we can end this.
00:36:05If Aaron's hiding something, he might slip up at work.
00:36:08Lucky for me, I have the perfect excuse.
00:36:12Hi, Vivian Christopher, Aaron's wife.
00:36:15I'm just here to drop off some lunch.
00:36:17I'm sorry, ma'am.
00:36:18Mr. Christopher isn't accepting any unscheduled visits.
00:36:21I'm not here for a business meeting.
00:36:22Just lunch.
00:36:23I'm afraid we have really strict policies.
00:36:26You'll need to make an appointment.
00:36:34Back here.
00:36:37You.
00:36:43You.
00:36:47So, you're my new sister.
00:36:50You're Stephen Christopher.
00:36:52The tie.
00:36:53The height.
00:36:54Even his face looks like the man at Everest that night.
00:36:57Could Stephen be X?
00:36:58Such a shame, isn't it?
00:37:00A woman like you.
00:37:02He's on a man like Aaron.
00:37:04Keep your hands to yourself.
00:37:05Wow.
00:37:06Fire.
00:37:09Stephen, did I meet you at Everest Capital the other night?
00:37:12I don't know.
00:37:13You tell me.
00:37:15Are you X?
00:37:18Look, if you're the one that saved me, fine.
00:37:22I owe you.
00:37:23But don't think for a second that gives you the right to disrespect Aaron.
00:37:27Oh, me.
00:37:28See, that's an interesting thought.
00:37:31Maybe we can discuss some form of repayment.
00:37:35Touch my wife again, you'll lose that fucking hand.
00:37:46Touch my wife again, you'll lose that fucking hand.
00:37:51Relax.
00:37:52Don't get yourself worked up.
00:37:53Just being friendly is all.
00:37:55Or you're just worried about the Christopher Group Gala tonight.
00:37:59Yeah, maybe you're afraid to remind everyone you haven't done anything worthwhile since the accident.
00:38:09We'll be there.
00:38:11I look forward to seeing you again, Vivian.
00:38:25Steven, your brother?
00:38:28He kind of reminds me of X.
00:38:32X.
00:38:34Steven can barely put together a sentence, let alone run an empire.
00:38:39He is my father's illegitimate son.
00:38:41He has always resented me.
00:38:47And he's also the reason that I'm in this wheelchair.
00:38:50What?
00:38:54I've been trying for five years to track down the evidence.
00:38:59And soon, hopefully, I'll have everything that I need to show that it was him.
00:39:04I'm so sorry.
00:39:06You must hate him.
00:39:08I did.
00:39:11Yeah.
00:39:14Until you came along and you showed me that there's more to life than just revenge.
00:39:22Well, I'll be by your side.
00:39:24No matter what.
00:39:29If only the past didn't exist.
00:39:32No first love.
00:39:34No what ifs.
00:39:36Just us.
00:39:38Just him and me.
00:39:40As husband and wife.
00:39:42Take my hand and my promises.
00:39:55So you're Vivian.
00:39:57As striking as I expected.
00:39:59You know Aaron's kept his distance since the accident.
00:40:02If I hadn't insisted on meeting you, he never would have shown.
00:40:07You know my health makes outings inconvenient.
00:40:10You know my health makes outings inconvenient.
00:40:10Aaron, tonight is a celebration.
00:40:12Stop dragging old wounds into it.
00:40:14It's an honor to finally meet you, sir.
00:40:18Come, let's talk.
00:40:20Just the two of us.
00:40:31That necklace.
00:40:33Aaron must truly care about you to give you that.
00:40:35That belonged to his mother.
00:40:37One of the few things she left behind.
00:40:39Aaron's mother.
00:40:40I heard she passed away early.
00:40:41Both his and Stephen's mothers are gone.
00:40:44I only hope my sons can take care of each other.
00:40:47Aaron mentioned that Stephen was responsible for his accident.
00:40:52Stephen hurt his own brother?
00:40:54That's absurd.
00:40:57Father, Navi's chairman is expecting you.
00:41:01Vivian, we'll continue this another time.
00:41:11Vivian, wait.
00:41:13I just want to apologize.
00:41:14I don't want to hear it.
00:41:35Brother, your wife was so insatiable last night.
00:41:39I could barely keep up.
00:41:47Hello?
00:41:47Stephen, what have you done?
00:41:49Oh, hello to you too.
00:41:52Well, Vivian and I had quite the intimate evening last night.
00:41:55Yeah.
00:41:56Yeah, you could say that she couldn't keep her hands to herself.
00:41:59I swear to God, Stephen.
00:42:00Shh.
00:42:00You don't want to wake her up now, do you?
00:42:02Come on, she's in my bed with nothing on but my sheets.
00:42:06Stephen?
00:42:18Stephen?
00:42:20What the hell?
00:42:22We.
00:42:24We did.
00:42:26Good morning, sweetheart.
00:42:28You couldn't keep your hands off me last night.
00:42:30Liar.
00:42:30I'd never.
00:42:31Really?
00:42:33Well, how would you explain this?
00:42:41How would you explain this?
00:42:45This one.
00:42:47This one's my favorite.
00:42:48You asshole.
00:42:49Don't touch me.
00:42:52Wow.
00:42:53You are feisty.
00:42:55Jesus.
00:42:56You are a lot prettier when you are quiet.
00:43:05What the fuck?
00:43:06Who the hell are you?
00:43:07Get away from me.
00:43:08I warned you.
00:43:10You lay a finger on her and you are dead.
00:43:12Geez, we don't have to get her so violent, brother.
00:43:17Besides, I have these.
00:43:20Son of a bitch.
00:43:21Hey.
00:43:22If you roll any closer, these little gems go viral.
00:43:25Get the damn phone.
00:43:29You don't think I have backups?
00:43:33What do you want?
00:43:35Simple.
00:43:37Step down.
00:43:38You resign as Evers Capital CEO.
00:43:42And I'll just take over as ex from here on out.
00:43:46Or we could just show the world what your wife was up to last night.
00:44:07Do you look at that?
00:44:09And now Evers Capital is mine.
00:44:12See, it's signing over a billion dollar company to your brother.
00:44:16For a woman?
00:44:18Now that's either real devotion or just plain stupid.
00:44:23Delete the photos.
00:44:25And you'll have my resignation in two months.
00:44:27Two months?
00:44:28Two months.
00:44:29Well, I'll make sure we both burn.
00:44:32All right.
00:44:33Two months.
00:44:34Guess I don't have to worry about you going anywhere in that state.
00:44:47Aaron, after everything that happened with Steven, how are we supposed to go back to normal?
00:44:54It's too much.
00:44:57Maybe we should end this.
00:45:01Evian, none of this was your fault.
00:45:03You've been through so much already.
00:45:06You deserve real happiness.
00:45:10Maybe even with that woman you've always loved.
00:45:15Don't worry, y'all.
00:45:16I'll still hold up my end of the deal.
00:45:21Do you remember the stormy night five years ago on Houston Road?
00:45:26The car accident?
00:45:41It was you.
00:45:45You have never been second.
00:45:50Never a replacement.
00:45:54My first love, Vivian.
00:45:58It's always been you.
00:46:05Always.
00:46:14I like it when you take charge, Mrs. Christopher.
00:46:17I see.
00:46:28Stay to the plan.
00:46:30When I resign, nothing changes.
00:46:32I still run this show.
00:46:35It's fine.
00:46:39And now for some breaking news.
00:46:41X, the mysterious CEO of Everest Capital, has officially resigned.
00:46:46The reason remains unclear.
00:46:48This is a disaster.
00:46:49We're about to close on the client deal.
00:46:51Who's going to be running the show now?
00:46:53Gentlemen.
00:46:55Let's not panic.
00:46:57Everest Capital is in great hands.
00:47:00Mine.
00:47:01I, Stephen Christopher, am your new CEO.
00:47:04And let me tell you, this company's future just got a whole lot brighter.
00:47:09I wouldn't get ahead of yourself, Stephen.
00:47:14I wouldn't get ahead of yourself, Stephen.
00:47:17I hate to interrupt your little coronation, but there's been a change in management.
00:47:22What the hell are you doing here?
00:47:23This is an executive...
00:47:25Before stepping down, Mr. X transferred his 70% company shares to me.
00:47:29And it's my existing 30%.
00:47:31Well, you do the math.
00:47:34That's right.
00:47:35I own this company now.
00:47:37No, no, no.
00:47:37This is a joke, right?
00:47:39And as my first order of business, please, escort CEO Stephen out.
00:47:44No, no, no, no.
00:47:45You can't.
00:47:45I'm the CEO.
00:47:47You're not getting away with this!
00:47:51Let's get down to business.
00:47:54Great work.
00:47:55Now we just need to make sure we keep him out for good.
00:48:03You've been home a lot lately.
00:48:04Is everything okay at the office?
00:48:11You've been home a lot lately.
00:48:13Is everything okay at the office?
00:48:15Why?
00:48:15Are you tired of having me around already?
00:48:17Of course not.
00:48:18Just wondering what's going on.
00:48:20Did someone piss you off at work?
00:48:22Or is Stephen playing dirty again?
00:48:24What if I just want to spend a little bit more time with my wife?
00:48:30Or should I say the mighty CEO of Laurence Corp?
00:48:33And she cooks!
00:48:35I'm going to have to stick around for life.
00:48:40Vivian.
00:48:42What did you put in this?
00:48:46Oh my god.
00:48:47I swapped the sugar and the salt.
00:48:49Three minutes.
00:48:51I'll be right back.
00:48:52Don't move.
00:48:53Okay.
00:48:54Okay.
00:48:56Okay.
00:49:04Mmm.
00:49:05Et voilĆ .
00:49:11Mmm.
00:49:13Are you sure you don't want to quit the business and cook for me full time?
00:49:21Good news.
00:49:22Guess who just pitched to Stephen's biggest client?
00:49:32Trust me.
00:49:33Whether it's CRISPR Group or Everest Capital, as long as I'm running things, our deal's locked in.
00:49:40Stephen!
00:49:40I have some good news for you.
00:49:44Unless you're resigning, I don't think I'm interested.
00:49:48Our biggest investor, Mr. Frank, just decided to negotiate directly with our board, which means...
00:49:54Which means you're officially off the hook.
00:49:56No stress, no responsibilities.
00:49:59Exciting, huh?
00:50:00You think that's funny?
00:50:02Hey, business is cutthroat.
00:50:05Hang in there, buddy.
00:50:21Your next meeting is in 30 minutes.
00:50:23I'll get the presentation ready.
00:50:27Back-to-back meetings again.
00:50:30Why am I so exhausted all of a sudden?
00:50:34I'll take a quick nap.
00:50:40A proper house husband could never let his hard-working wife go hungry.
00:50:45I swear I would marry you all over again just for this.
00:50:57Our deal with Everest Capital is a game-changer.
00:50:59If we execute the plan we're proposing, we will go far beyond what's been possible so far in this sector.
00:51:04Our margins and production rates are impossible for competitors to...
00:51:08No doubt under Vivian, our profits have skyrocketed.
00:51:11Patented technology.
00:51:11Yeah, but when's the last time that she slipped?
00:51:13Lately she looks like she's running on fumes.
00:51:15Care to loop us into your little conversation?
00:51:17Don't forget, I'm your CEO.
00:51:20I don't think I need proof.
00:51:24Prove that I have what it takes to...
00:51:28Go! Go! Go! Go! Go! Go! Go!
00:51:40Good news. It's nothing critical. Just exhaustion.
00:51:45But also, there's something else.
00:51:47What is it?
00:51:48You're three months pregnant. Congratulations.
00:51:52I'm sorry, what?
00:51:57This can't be happening.
00:52:05This can't be happening. We've triple checked the results.
00:52:09There's no mistake. You are definitely pregnant.
00:52:17Steven?
00:52:21This wasn't supposed to happen.
00:52:24You always have a choice, but considering your medical history,
00:52:30if you terminate, there's a high chance you may never conceive again.
00:52:36I need time to digest this.
00:52:50Excuse me.
00:53:00Hi, I'm Ashley Lawrence, Vivian's sister.
00:53:04She's been a little emotional lately, so she wanted me to check on her results for her.
00:53:12Family should look out for each other.
00:53:13Am I right?
00:53:20You told me it was just an act?
00:53:22Why the hell is Vivian pregnant?
00:53:24Relax, I never touched her.
00:53:26Okay, that kid is not mine.
00:53:28Then whose is it?
00:53:29Her disabled husband?
00:53:30We both know that's not possible.
00:53:33Maybe Vivian isn't as innocent as she puts on.
00:53:36This could work out for us.
00:53:38Just picture the scandal for a sec.
00:53:40A wife caught between two brothers.
00:53:43How do you think Aaron will handle that?
00:53:51Aaron?
00:53:54I'm pregnant.
00:53:58Wait, seriously?
00:54:01That's great news.
00:54:03No, it's not.
00:54:05Because I don't know if it's yours.
00:54:08You think it might be Steven's?
00:54:10I don't know, I just...
00:54:13I can't be certain what happened that night.
00:54:17I can't keep it.
00:54:19I won't.
00:54:23Listen to me.
00:54:25This child is yours.
00:54:27That's all that matters.
00:54:30Just stay where you are.
00:54:31I'm coming to get you.
00:54:51Vivian?
00:54:54What are you doing?
00:54:55She's coming with me.
00:54:57We have a lot to talk about.
00:54:59What the hell did you say to her?
00:55:02I'm just helping her see the truth.
00:55:05I asked him to meet me.
00:55:07I need to figure this out.
00:55:11Let's go.
00:55:22I need you to be honest with me.
00:55:25You were just trying to get a rise out of Aaron.
00:55:28Nothing actually happened that night.
00:55:30Right?
00:55:31Of course something happened.
00:55:33Then why don't I remember anything?
00:55:36I don't know.
00:55:37Maybe you blacked out.
00:55:39But I remember quite vividly.
00:55:41You were certainly into it.
00:55:43One of the best nights of my life.
00:55:48Let me out.
00:55:49Now, Steven.
00:55:50Okay, Jesus.
00:56:03I've decided.
00:56:05I'm not keeping this baby.
00:56:10You know that if you go through with this,
00:56:12you might never be able to have children again.
00:56:16But if there's even the slightest chance that it's Steven's,
00:56:21how do I live with that?
00:56:23How do you?
00:56:27This isn't about Steven.
00:56:32This child is yours.
00:56:35That's all I need to know.
00:56:38DNA doesn't define family.
00:56:40Love does.
00:56:40And Vivian.
00:56:42I love you.
00:56:57Steven's reaction to the pregnancy.
00:57:00Something doesn't feel right.
00:57:03You're just too confident.
00:57:05Too assured.
00:57:10Erin, something doesn't add up.
00:57:16Something doesn't add up.
00:57:19Why?
00:57:19What's going on?
00:57:21The night Steven drugged me.
00:57:22It was barely two months ago.
00:57:24This baby is three months along.
00:57:27So you're saying the baby was conceived before that night?
00:57:32It was before I met you.
00:57:34I was supposed to go on a blind date.
00:57:37Stayed at a hotel.
00:57:39Met this guy.
00:57:41It has to be from that night.
00:57:45Yeah, it's gotta be.
00:57:48It's not Steven's.
00:57:50Thank God it's not his.
00:57:58It's all happening.
00:58:00Steven's finished.
00:58:01We've notified his clients that the evidence against him has officially been filed in court.
00:58:10I can't believe that tomorrow I get to finally put all this behind me.
00:58:14Show what really happened the night of the accident.
00:58:18It's all because of you.
00:58:20I sent William everything.
00:58:22My team recovered.
00:58:24It's all there.
00:58:26Make sure Steven never comes back from this.
00:58:30Oh, don't worry.
00:58:31He's finished.
00:58:39You should be more careful.
00:58:41Aaron's been sniffing around.
00:58:42I'm not even worried in the slightest.
00:58:45We're orchestrating Aaron's downfall together.
00:58:47If you continue to play your part,
00:58:50I'll make you my wife.
00:58:52You better keep your word.
00:58:53Don't even worry.
00:58:55By tomorrow, the old man will sign everything over to me.
00:58:58But once I'm running Christopher group,
00:59:01you'll have everything I promised.
00:59:10Father, you shouldn't push yourself so hard.
00:59:12The doctor warned you.
00:59:13Stress isn't good for your heart.
00:59:15I don't want you to worry about me, son.
00:59:17I just want what's best for you.
00:59:19And for the company.
00:59:21I'm sure all of you are wondering what the big news is.
00:59:24I've decided it's time to embark on a new chapter in this company.
00:59:30I'm officially signing over Christopher group to Steven.
00:59:35Any objections?
00:59:39A wise choice, sir.
00:59:41Steven has done nothing but proven his loyalty.
00:59:43Thank you, Father.
00:59:44I know I have some big shoes to fill here,
00:59:47but I promise that I will try my best to carry this family's legacy.
00:59:55I object.
01:00:01There's the accident.
01:00:05There.
01:00:09Or should I say attempted murder?
01:00:12This is impossible.
01:00:13No, no, no.
01:00:13The camera on that road was...
01:00:15Sabotaged?
01:00:16Yeah.
01:00:17I know.
01:00:19But lucky for us, Lawrence Corp is world class of data recovery.
01:00:24Steven, tell me this isn't true.
01:00:28I had nothing.
01:00:31I had to crawl my way to the top while he was at it everything.
01:00:36I just wanted to be seen.
01:00:38Speaking of secrets,
01:00:40here's another big one.
01:00:42After the crash, I pulled away.
01:00:46I faked an injury.
01:00:50I just wanted this snake to think that he'd won.
01:00:57And in the meantime, I also built Everest Capital.
01:01:03Mysterious X?
01:01:05Me.
01:01:08Aaron, your patience and resilience.
01:01:11You were always meant to lead.
01:01:16But you...
01:01:17You took the wrong path.
01:01:18I've always been supportive of you.
01:01:21But it's over.
01:01:22You are no longer part of this family.
01:01:25No, no, no.
01:01:26You can't do this to me.
01:01:27Actions have consequences.
01:01:29Now get out.
01:01:39You're going to regret this!
01:01:50You're going to regret this!
01:02:00The rest of them?
01:02:00Get in line.
01:02:02You and me?
01:02:04We're cut from the same cloth.
01:02:06You, the bastard's son.
01:02:08And me, the stepdaughter nobody wanted.
01:02:12So why do we keep playing their game?
01:02:16When we could just rewrite the rules?
01:02:30Vivian.
01:02:33Let me explain.
01:02:35What's there to explain?
01:02:36How you lied to me?
01:02:38How you made me look like a complete fool while I poured my heart out?
01:02:43No.
01:02:43No!
01:02:45My feelings for you were never a lie.
01:02:48I just...
01:02:49I had to make sure that my plan would work.
01:02:51I couldn't risk...
01:02:52And you didn't trust me to be part of it.
01:02:58There's no coming back from this.
01:03:02We're done, Erin.
01:03:04I want a divorce.
01:03:20I want a divorce.
01:03:22Damn, Viv.
01:03:22You're moving in or launching an apartment store.
01:03:24Come on.
01:03:25You can't spare one room for your bestie?
01:03:28Yeah.
01:03:29Well, Daddy put my black card in timeout, so technically I'm broke.
01:03:33Yeah.
01:03:34But, now that you're a CEO, I guess you could be my sugar ma.
01:03:38Yeah?
01:03:39Fine.
01:03:41Please make yourself useful and help me unpack.
01:03:45Okay.
01:03:46Yeah, yeah, yeah.
01:03:47Thanks.
01:03:52So, you're really divorcing Erin?
01:03:55He lied to my face for months.
01:03:57What am I supposed to do?
01:03:58Uplaud his performance?
01:04:00Okay, but he did kind of do it to take down Steven.
01:04:03Erin Christopher has officially assumed leadership of Christopher Group.
01:04:07Securing his place as the new CEO.
01:04:10Damn.
01:04:11Your man is really the whole package.
01:04:14Hey, if you're done with him, I'm happy to...
01:04:21Fair enough.
01:04:34Vivian, it's 7am. Are you possessed?
01:04:37Nope. Just focusing on me and getting on with my life.
01:04:42You sure you're not overdoing it?
01:04:44Especially with the baby.
01:04:51Still ghosting him?
01:04:52That makes what?
01:04:54300 texts?
01:04:55Damn, the guy's not giving up.
01:04:58I don't want to talk about him.
01:05:00I have exactly 29 minutes until I have to deal with corporate sharks.
01:05:04At least have some breakfast.
01:05:06God.
01:05:14By now, Erin would have dropped off my favorite lunch.
01:05:19No way.
01:05:20Could it be?
01:05:25Could it be?
01:05:28Hey boss, the research team's ready for you, but someone thought you might skip lunch and brought you this.
01:05:33Let me guess.
01:05:35Erin?
01:05:36You two still at odds?
01:05:38It's been days.
01:05:39Who wants to fight with a liar?
01:05:42Buddy is a good cook.
01:05:48Let's go.
01:05:50This is our biggest tech breakthrough yet.
01:05:52It relies on the same algorithm that was used to recover the Everest Capital car accident footage.
01:05:58Hang on, who was your contact at Everest for that project?
01:06:01Uh, their executive assistant, William.
01:06:05William?
01:06:06Erin's right-hand man?
01:06:09Could Erin be X?
01:06:16Tell me the truth.
01:06:19Erin is X, isn't he?
01:06:25Yes, it's true.
01:06:32Look, you had to fake the injury.
01:06:34You think Steven would have stopped if he knew Erin was fine?
01:06:36And what about the lying?
01:06:37Was that a part of the grand strategy too?
01:06:41You think he wasn't trying to protect you too?
01:06:43That deal you made with Everest Capital, he made sure it went through.
01:06:46That's how you secured Lawrence Corp.
01:06:48He risked everything to back you.
01:06:50And that night with Ralph.
01:06:52He didn't care about blowing his cover.
01:06:54He just ran in to save you.
01:07:00I have a charity gala tonight.
01:07:02Do you want to be my plus one?
01:07:05After all, we are still married.
01:07:13Ma'am, your leadership skills are turning heads.
01:07:16A toast to your continued success.
01:07:18I appreciate the toast, really, but I'm a disaster with alcohol.
01:07:22Let's not ruin a perfectly good evening.
01:07:24Come on, just one drink.
01:07:26Consider it an investment.
01:07:28Appreciate the gesture, but my wife doesn't drink.
01:07:31I'm sure you understand.
01:07:34Funny.
01:07:35Word is she won't be your wife much longer.
01:07:37Perhaps when she's single, I'll have better luck.
01:07:40Nonsense.
01:07:41I haven't signed a damn thing.
01:07:43She's still mine.
01:07:46All I can say is the rumors might be true.
01:07:49And once it's official, I'll be throwing a fabulous singles party.
01:07:53You should come.
01:07:58Erin, do you care to dance with us?
01:08:02Uh, what, um...
01:08:03Come on, just win the song.
01:08:07Ladies, if you'll excuse me, I have to get some air.
01:08:17Goku finally escaped his fan club.
01:08:22You know you shouldn't be drinking.
01:08:25Come on, let's take you home.
01:08:27Relax, it's just a ginger ale.
01:08:34You are such an asshole.
01:08:38Oh yeah?
01:08:39So what does that make you?
01:08:41Because this asshole is still so damn in love with you.
01:08:58What the hell am I doing?
01:09:04Vivian, why are you sneaking in like a teenager past curfew?
01:09:08Because I'm a mess.
01:09:11I was supposed to be done with Erin.
01:09:14And then, ugh.
01:09:16Let me guess.
01:09:18Things got...
01:09:20heated?
01:09:21Maybe I should see you shrink.
01:09:23Look, I just think you should at least have a proper conversation with him.
01:09:28You know, maybe deep down you don't want to leave him?
01:09:45Viv, I was at the hospital with my mom and you won't believe who I just saw.
01:09:49Who?
01:09:49Oh, William with Erin heading into the ER.
01:09:52What?
01:10:03Christopher? Where is he?
01:10:06Mr. Christopher suffered a severe heart attack.
01:10:09He's in emergency care now.
01:10:10The doctors are doing everything they can.
01:10:13Heart attack?
01:10:21Please, don't take him.
01:10:25Not like this.
01:10:28I love him.
01:10:30I still love him.
01:10:32You need to tell him that.
01:10:34Just give me one more chance.
01:10:40It's more than enough to let the light in.
01:10:44The way you're making me feel, it's divine.
01:10:49It's enough to let it flow, let it be.
01:10:55Erin?
01:10:57How?
01:10:58Weren't you just...
01:11:05Vivian?
01:11:07Erin? How...
01:11:09Weren't you just...
01:11:11It wasn't me in the ER.
01:11:13It was my dad.
01:11:14Your dad?
01:11:15What happened?
01:11:16Heart attack.
01:11:17Again.
01:11:19Erin, I...
01:11:21Look.
01:11:23Lauren's Corp has some of the best cardiologists.
01:11:27If you need anything.
01:11:30Vivian...
01:11:33Please, just...
01:11:35Promise me you'll take care of yourself.
01:11:39You're...
01:11:40You're...
01:11:41Holding something back.
01:11:42What is it?
01:11:44I think we need to talk.
01:11:47About the divorce.
01:11:49Really?
01:11:52You...
01:11:52You'll reconsider?
01:11:57Yeah, okay.
01:11:59Um...
01:11:59Yeah.
01:12:00Here.
01:12:01Take my car.
01:12:03And...
01:12:03I'll meet you at home.
01:12:05And we can talk there.
01:12:06I just...
01:12:07I gotta get back to my dad.
01:12:08Okay.
01:12:09I'll, um...
01:12:10I'll see you there.
01:12:12Okay.
01:12:31Ashley?
01:12:33What?
01:12:34Dad was in an accident?
01:12:37Is he okay?
01:12:38Where is he?
01:12:40I'll be right there.
01:12:48Dad?
01:12:51It's me.
01:12:52I'm here.
01:12:55Hmm.
01:12:56Something doesn't feel right.
01:12:59Maybe they already transferred him to the hospital?
01:13:02What?
01:13:07The procedure was very successful.
01:13:10Your father is stable.
01:13:11But you'll need 48 hours of close monitoring.
01:13:15I'll come back to check on him later.
01:13:17But...
01:13:18I need to take care of something at home first.
01:13:20I've seen you at home first.
01:13:29Viv?
01:13:31Viv?
01:13:39Should I come home?
01:14:05Okay, Vivian.
01:14:06Stay calm.
01:14:09Ashley called.
01:14:11Dad was in danger.
01:14:14I rushed home.
01:14:15Everyone was there.
01:14:17Then blackout.
01:14:20It was a setup.
01:14:23Ashley!
01:14:24Come out!
01:14:26I know it was you.
01:14:29Wow.
01:14:30It took you long enough.
01:14:33You really should have been smart about this, sweetheart.
01:14:37You could have had everything.
01:14:39The money.
01:14:40The power.
01:14:42Me.
01:14:43But you just had to throw it all away for that pathetic liar.
01:14:47Go to hell.
01:14:51William, track Vivian's phone.
01:14:53I don't care what it takes.
01:14:55Just find her.
01:14:59I know you've always had a soft spot for Daddy.
01:15:02Well, lucky for you, here he is.
01:15:15Boss, we found her.
01:15:18Send me the info.
01:15:19Meet me there, and bring backup.
01:15:31You just have to sign it, sweetheart.
01:15:34Transfer all of your Lawrence Corp shares over to Ashley and I.
01:15:40You're my father.
01:15:41How could you do this to me?
01:15:51So you and Ashley were in on this the other all along.
01:15:55Why?
01:15:57Why couldn't you just support me?
01:15:58Well, I spent years resenting your perfect mother.
01:16:02Nothing I ever did was good enough for her.
01:16:04And you?
01:16:06Well, let's be honest.
01:16:07You always chose her side.
01:16:09So just sign the damn papers and we can finally move on from all of this.
01:16:14That's the only way you'll walk out of your life.
01:16:17Keep dreaming.
01:16:19Lawrence Corp is my mother's legacy.
01:16:21I'd rather let this place burn down than you parasites take it.
01:16:24Vivian, be reasonable.
01:16:26It's not like you have much of a choice.
01:16:29I knew you'd be stubborn.
01:16:30So here's a little incentive.
01:16:39My darling Vivian.
01:16:41Mom.
01:16:42I wanted to give you one final message.
01:16:44This was your mom's final gift to you before she died.
01:16:46She recorded a special message and asked me to pass it along to you.
01:16:50When the time was right.
01:16:52So it's your choice.
01:16:53Do you care to know your mother's last dying words?
01:16:56Or do you want to say goodbye to her forever?
01:17:01Last chance.
01:17:03Sign the contract.
01:17:04Come on, sis.
01:17:06Don't be stupid.
01:17:14Come on, sis.
01:17:16Don't be stupid.
01:17:18Fine.
01:17:19I'll sign it.
01:17:30There.
01:17:32Now give me the drive.
01:17:34No!
01:17:36Look at you.
01:17:39Pathetic.
01:17:39All that crying over a worthless piece of plastic.
01:17:44Everything you had.
01:17:46Your company.
01:17:47Your life.
01:17:49It's mine now.
01:17:53Eric!
01:17:54Step away from my wife!
01:17:56Whoa, whoa.
01:17:56Just calm down now.
01:17:58Okay.
01:17:59Steven, what's he doing here?
01:18:01Do something!
01:18:02Gladly.
01:18:03Time to finish what we started.
01:18:11Steven, I told you.
01:18:12If you hurt baby, I'd fucking kill you!
01:18:16Ashley, Steven's hurt.
01:18:17Aren't you going to help your man?
01:18:23Ashley, Steven's hurt.
01:18:25Aren't you going to help your man?
01:18:30Hang on, babe.
01:18:31I'm coming!
01:18:32Aaron, watch out!
01:18:49Are you okay?
01:18:53Look out!
01:19:03Not so tough now, huh?
01:19:05This hit.
01:19:06It's over, Steven.
01:19:08You bitch!
01:19:10You will ruin everything!
01:19:12Say goodbye to your precious mommy!
01:19:14No!
01:19:16Say goodbye to your precious mommy!
01:19:19No!
01:19:21No!
01:19:28I got it.
01:19:31Steven!
01:19:31What are you waiting for?
01:19:33Put your hands in the air!
01:19:36You're under arrest for kidnapping!
01:19:37It's not my fault.
01:19:39They forced me.
01:19:41Officers!
01:19:42I think you should look into my mother's death.
01:19:46I don't think this is their first crime.
01:19:50Oh, God.
01:19:51We're finished.
01:19:57It's a great one.
01:19:58Over.
01:20:00It's over.
01:20:05It's over.
01:20:06Finally, you two.
01:20:08I'm glad I survived to see you again.
01:20:12But what's this nonsense I'm hearing about a divorce?
01:20:17Um, it's, uh, it's complicated.
01:20:21Complicated?
01:20:21Vivian, it's the best thing that's ever happened to you.
01:20:24You need to find a way to work it out.
01:20:28Vivian, if my son has done something stupid, you let me know.
01:20:32I will straighten him out myself.
01:20:34But please, reconsider this divorce.
01:20:40He did lie to me, Mr. Christopher.
01:20:44But unfortunately, I'm still hopelessly in love with him.
01:20:49Vivian.
01:20:50Just give me some time.
01:20:52I need to think through everything.
01:20:55I'll give you an answer by tomorrow.
01:21:12I'll give you an answer by tomorrow.
01:21:20Dad, there is one more thing.
01:21:24Stephen's going to prison.
01:21:26He kidnapped Vivian, and he conspired with Ashley
01:21:29to take over the company while you were sick.
01:21:31My God.
01:21:32After all these years, I felt guilty.
01:21:35Favored him.
01:21:36Protected him.
01:21:38And this is how he repays me.
01:21:39Hey, no, it's okay.
01:21:40It's done now.
01:21:42You just rest.
01:21:44I'll handle everything, okay?
01:21:47Got this, Dad.
01:21:58Aaron.
01:22:00You lied to me.
01:22:03Then you also came to help me and save my mom's memories.
01:22:10What am I supposed to do now?
01:22:19Vivian, sweetheart, wherever life takes you, I just want you to be happy.
01:22:27And remember that true love is always worth fighting for us.
01:22:34I wish you were here, Mom.
01:22:38I don't know what to do.
01:22:41I don't know what to do.
01:23:04Vivian collapsed.
01:23:05She's at the hospital now.
01:23:07They said something might be wrong with the baby.
01:23:09Hurry.
01:23:09What?
01:23:23Vivian, I screwed up.
01:23:26I know.
01:23:30But I can't lose you.
01:23:34Not again.
01:23:37Because...
01:23:39Because I love you.
01:23:41Just give me one chance to start over.
01:23:48Aaron?
01:23:50How long have you been here?
01:23:52I'm glad you're awake.
01:23:55Everything looks good.
01:23:57Your little one is quite the fighter.
01:24:00Definitely inherited Dad's strength.
01:24:05Wait, how do you know who the...
01:24:06Do you remember that night?
01:24:08Before the blind date?
01:24:10You left a note complimenting my, um...
01:24:13Exceptional performance.
01:24:16That was you?
01:24:18Vivian, this is our baby.
01:24:22Now we really can be together.
01:24:24I can't believe it.
01:24:26I can't believe it.
01:24:27Our story started long before we even knew it.
01:24:35Vivian Lawrence.
01:24:36No matter what life throws at us...
01:24:39I promise I will always be by your side.
01:24:42I will love you and protect you and our baby.
01:24:47So Vivian...
01:24:50Vivian...
01:24:51Are you marrying me...
01:24:53Again?
01:24:56Yes.
01:24:57Yes?
01:24:58Yes.
01:24:58You're everything that I crave in this life.
01:25:06We're everything we can find in another life.
01:25:15Take my hand and my promises.
01:25:20They're yours to be held and I want you.
01:25:28You're everything that I do...
01:25:29Theoben
01:25:29You're everything that I want...
01:25:30I wonder...
