In the heart-racing romance "Kissing the Ruthless Tycoon," Maya is a fierce investigative journalist determined to take down Vane Sterling, a man known as the "vulture of Wall Street." Vane is cold, calculative, and has never lost a battle—until he meets the woman trying to destroy him. To get the evidence she needs, Maya infiltrates his inner circle, but her mission is compromised when she’s caught in his private office. Instead of turning her in, Vane makes a scandalous wager: for every secret she wants, she must give him a moment of her time. As their intellectual war turns into a physical obsession, Maya realizes that the only thing more dangerous than Vane’s business tactics is his kiss.

Short filmTranscript
00:00:03Before Liam and I got married, we signed a prenuptial agreement. It included an infidelity clause.
00:00:11If either spouse cheats, the marriage ends immediately.
00:00:15The unfaithful party walks away with nothing.
00:00:18It was that simple.
00:00:20Even so, in our eighth year of marriage,
00:00:27you cheated.
00:00:30Oh.
00:00:37So tell me, between real evil, who do you think is going?
00:00:45Of course it's you.
00:01:08I promise I will love you forever. If I ever stop, I deserve help. And I swear at home.
00:01:18I believe you. I am. But...
00:01:24Always.
00:01:26There's no such thing.
00:01:40What do you want, Avra?
00:01:43You cheated. You breached our prenuptial agreement. I want a divorce and 50 million in settlement.
00:01:48Are you out of your mind?
00:01:51Absolutely not.
00:01:53Think about it, Evelyn.
00:01:54A stock crash would cost Sterling far more than 50 million.
00:02:01Fine. You win. I'll transfer the money today.
00:02:05You've got one hour.
00:02:07Or the photos go public.
00:02:09I'll send 25 million today and the rest when you're officially divorced for my son.
00:02:15No.
00:02:21Director E, Mrs. Sterling wanted me to deliver this.
00:02:34Are you okay, ma'am?
00:02:37I'm fine.
00:02:38I'm fine.
00:02:40I'm fine.
00:02:41Well, Mrs. Sterling personally selected this set.
00:02:43There's only one in the whole world.
00:02:46Oh.
00:02:48How thoughtful of him.
00:02:53Eight years of marriage end here.
00:02:59Wow.
00:03:00This is a serious collection.
00:03:03Are you sure you want to sell this?
00:03:04Yeah.
00:03:05All of it.
00:03:06So you really are divorcing Liam?
00:03:10Eight years together and this is how it ends?
00:03:13I'm sorry.
00:03:13You must be devastated.
00:03:16It'll pass.
00:03:23I mean, let's be real.
00:03:25Ivor had her moment.
00:03:26Sure, but eight years is a long run.
00:03:28Well, Liam just wanted something fresh.
00:03:29You know what I'm talking about?
00:03:30Yeah, Ivor was dumb anyway.
00:03:32Anyway, she wasted her best years on someone like Liam.
00:03:35Yeah, when it's done with them, I wouldn't mind checking in.
00:03:38Their bodies been on my radar for years, mate.
00:03:42You bastards.
00:03:46Gentlemen.
00:03:47Let's get something straight.
00:03:49You think I wasted my best years?
00:03:51Anyways.
00:03:52Well, let's be honest.
00:03:53They were Liam's best years, too.
00:03:56So, yeah.
00:03:57I'd call that a good deal.
00:03:59Liam?
00:04:04Liam?
00:04:05Who is she?
00:04:09Come on.
00:04:10Come on!
00:04:11Get off me!
00:04:13Are you fucking crazy?
00:04:14What the hell is wrong with you?
00:04:17Enjoy the night with your sweetheart.
00:04:19I'm done here.
00:04:20You are.
00:04:21No!
00:04:22No!
00:04:22No!
00:04:23No!
00:04:23No!
00:04:24No!
00:04:24No!
00:04:24No!
00:04:24No!
00:04:24No!
00:04:25No!
00:04:26No!
00:04:29No!
00:04:35No!
00:04:35Wait for that stupid bar, Ingrid!
00:04:37Catching you cheating!
00:04:38Oh, don't be so dramatic!
00:04:39The Carter family have just started negotiating the Polaris Project with us.
00:04:43And Lillian, she's just... she's just part of the deal.
00:04:46What?
00:04:46So if you don't sleep with Lillian Carter, the Carters won't do business with you?
00:04:50Oh, don't be so unreasonable, God damn it!
00:04:52I'm trying to explain.
00:04:54Listen, no need to explain, Liam.
00:04:57If you want to first start, fine.
00:04:59I can agree to that.
00:05:01What does that mean?
00:05:04I mean...
00:05:05Let's get a divorce.
00:05:09Don't ever say that, Abra.
00:05:12I didn't just say it.
00:05:14I meant it.
00:05:15I choose it.
00:05:18Liam...
00:05:18Let's get a divorce.
00:05:23You don't mean that, sweetheart.
00:05:25You do not mean that. You're just upset.
00:05:27Yeah?
00:05:29Come on, this is just a rough patch.
00:05:31Every relationship has a difficult period.
00:05:33Yeah?
00:05:34Think of all the nice times, sweetie.
00:05:37Yeah?
00:05:39Look, how about we go for a nice trip together?
00:05:41Just me and you.
00:05:45Please.
00:05:48Bye.
00:05:49Let me sleep on it.
00:05:51I'm going to bed.
00:06:02Hey.
00:06:05Look, sweetheart. Something urgent's come up.
00:06:07I've got to fly to London on business.
00:06:10I'm sorry.
00:06:11I'll make it up to you as soon as I'm back, okay?
00:06:15Go take care of it.
00:06:18I'll be on the first flight home.
00:06:19Thanks.
00:06:35Come to Sterling Mansion.
00:06:37About what we discussed last time.
00:06:39I need it signed.
00:06:40In person.
00:06:42Alright.
00:06:42Okay.
00:06:48I don't think you realise I'll get out of this game.
00:06:50Hmm?
00:06:51We'll see about that.
00:06:52Go.
00:06:56I win!
00:06:58You must have cheated.
00:07:00Were you trying to make me win, Liam?
00:07:02I'm just ruling out.
00:07:18Ava, what are you doing here?
00:07:19Your mother asked me to come.
00:07:21Weren't you supposed to be on a business trip to London?
00:07:24What?
00:07:24Did you learn how to teleport?
00:07:27It was cancelled.
00:07:30Hi.
00:07:32I'm Julian Carter.
00:07:35Hi.
00:07:37Hi.
00:07:44Lillian, dear.
00:07:46Did you have a good time today?
00:07:48This is Ava, one of our directors.
00:07:53I just need a word with her about work.
00:07:58Oh, so she's just an employee here.
00:08:04Can we talk now?
00:08:05Not now.
00:08:07Today, my priority is to make sure that Lillian feels welcome.
00:08:14Liam, let's play another round.
00:08:19Get it.
00:08:21Another time.
00:08:24Well, does Director Reed know how to play Halle Gally?
00:08:29Of course.
00:08:30Would you like to play a game, Miss Carter?
00:08:32I can't believe Mr. Sterling lost his best game.
00:08:35You must really want to make her happy.
00:08:38Shall we?
00:08:39I can't wait.
00:08:53I win.
00:08:55Yes!
00:08:56Brilliant, my dear.
00:08:58You counted wrong.
00:08:59I win.
00:09:00What?
00:09:00You won't.
00:09:05You won't.
00:09:07I won't.
00:09:07I won't.
00:09:07I won't.
00:09:08I won't.
00:09:09Let's go.
00:09:10Again.
00:09:15Miss Carter, you lost!
00:09:17Again.
00:09:19Again.
00:09:20Again?
00:09:22Again!
00:09:23Again!
00:09:27Ms. Carter, I'm not even trying.
00:09:31It's not fair! She's obviously just picking on me!
00:09:35Sweetheart, calm down. Don't cry.
00:09:37It's okay.
00:09:38It's not a goddamn championship game, Avra.
00:09:40Do you really have to take it this far?
00:09:42That's the trouble with people from her background.
00:09:45Petty. Small-minded.
00:09:47They make a fuss over the most trivial things.
00:09:52Exactly.
00:09:55Hey, Liam, please don't cry.
00:09:58You're breaking my heart.
00:10:03Good game, Ms. Carter.
00:10:06Hey, but what the hell do you think you're doing?
00:10:08No, Liam!
00:10:09Remember, you'd be nothing without me.
00:10:17I won another $10 billion.
00:10:19That makes $16 million total.
00:10:21If a single dollar is missing when the divorce is finalized,
00:10:25I will make sure the Sterling family pays for it.
00:10:45I'm very sorry, ma'am.
00:10:46This whole accident was our responsibility.
00:10:49And I promise we'll take care of everything.
00:10:53Please, take my business card.
00:10:55We can offer you a ride to the hospital.
00:10:58No, no.
00:10:59I'm fine.
00:10:59I can call a taxi.
00:11:01Are you sure?
00:11:03Please hold on.
00:11:05Boss.
00:11:11She doesn't want to come to the hospital with us.
00:11:22Boss?
00:11:35Put this on.
00:11:36It's freezing out.
00:11:55It's not easy to see a bright yellow car in nighttime, is it?
00:12:07First you ignore my calls, then you disappear on me, and then you pull this reckless shit!
00:12:11Do you really think that gets my attention, Abra?
00:12:14Of course not.
00:12:16Your attention is clearly on Lillian.
00:12:18Oh, come on.
00:12:19I know I lied to you, but you don't have to take it out on Lillian and make her cry.
00:12:23She's just a spoiled kid.
00:12:26Don't worry.
00:12:27It won't happen again.
00:12:30Honestly, I don't care what's going on between you and Lillian anymore.
00:12:34Just keep her in check and out of my sight.
00:12:37Lillian is just like a little sister to me.
00:12:39I hate her.
00:12:40A little sister?
00:12:41Wow, that's quite a bond.
00:12:47Who's jacket is this?
00:12:49Mads.
00:12:50Oh, I just see him as a brother.
00:12:52Is that a problem?
00:12:56How about that?
00:12:58What are you doing?
00:13:04Do you have any idea what you're doing?
00:13:07Dragging innocent people into your mess.
00:13:09I guess you can vent your emotions.
00:13:11Do you know how childish that is?
00:13:13Oh, that's rich.
00:13:14Coming from a spoiled little man child like you.
00:13:29Sorry to bother you.
00:13:30I just wanted to ask what your boss's measurements are.
00:13:37Look, I found out of something.
00:13:40It's not perfectly straight, but what relationship is, huh?
00:13:46I've got something to tell you.
00:13:49What is it?
00:13:50I'm resigning.
00:13:51After all these years, I need a break.
00:13:54Time to enjoy a more leisurely life.
00:13:58Yeah.
00:13:59Yeah, that sounds nice.
00:14:01Well, tell me wherever you want to go and I'll take care of the arrangements.
00:14:05You deserve it.
00:14:07Sure.
00:14:08By then, I'll be done with you.
00:14:15Work call.
00:14:16It's coming in.
00:14:17It's urgent.
00:14:17It's about a big bid, honey.
00:14:18I'll be two minutes.
00:14:19I'm so sorry.
00:14:20I was really enjoying it.
00:14:31Once a man changes his heart, he rots.
00:14:37And rotten things get thrown away.
00:14:43Uh, Director Reed, Mrs. Sterling's in the minute.
00:14:45You know, it's not the best time.
00:14:59Director Reed, see Miss Carter, she helped moving some files.
00:15:03And you know how exhausting it is.
00:15:04So, Mrs. Sterling, he just decided to give her a deep, friendly, friendly massage.
00:15:07I mean, it's just easy to get it right out of me.
00:15:09Blamey.
00:15:10You're an Ivy League graduate.
00:15:11And this is what you pick up?
00:15:13A glorified pimp?
00:15:15Shut up.
00:15:16Have you forgotten your place?
00:15:18You're fired.
00:15:24I already told you about my resignation.
00:15:26I begin handover today and starting next week, I won't be coming back.
00:15:30Fine.
00:15:32Suit yourself.
00:15:33You won't be missed.
00:15:34Good.
00:15:35Then please, go back to your massage.
00:15:39What we do is none of your business.
00:15:42Listen carefully, Ava.
00:15:45Liam doesn't love you anymore.
00:15:47He loves me.
00:15:48And we spend every single night together.
00:15:53Enough.
00:15:54No!
00:15:55Go on.
00:15:55The more you talk, the clearer it gets.
00:15:58You're the side bitch, Lillian.
00:15:59And I'll make sure everybody knows it.
00:16:02You bitch!
00:16:04How dare you, something like that!
00:16:08You crazy bitch!
00:16:10Lillian.
00:16:11Liam!
00:16:12Look what she did to me!
00:16:14That was too far enough.
00:16:15Get out now!
00:16:17You made me sick, Liam.
00:16:24Sir?
00:16:25I wish it looks, she may just hurt her back.
00:16:28It may be serious.
00:16:31Liam!
00:16:32She scared me!
00:16:33She's crazy!
00:16:36It's okay.
00:16:37I'm here now.
00:16:38I'm here.
00:16:42I'm here now.
00:16:43I'm here now.
00:16:43Hey!
00:16:45Hey, Rage, did you really quit?
00:16:47Yeah.
00:16:48Don't want to see Liam's face for even one more second.
00:16:51Perfect timing, Ben.
00:16:52I heard that the Jones Group is looking for assistance for their CEO, Zach Jones.
00:16:57You should really give it a shot.
00:16:58Hey, the Jones Group, as in the biggest company in the country?
00:17:04Yeah, that's the one.
00:17:06Real old money royalty there.
00:17:09And if you land that job, Liam won't even be on your radar anymore.
00:17:13Yeah.
00:17:15Alright.
00:17:16I'll give it a go.
00:17:19The project department answers to me now.
00:17:22If you can't get on board, you know where the door is.
00:17:30Well, well, well.
00:17:33Look at that.
00:17:35Director Reed.
00:17:36Oh, no way.
00:17:38Former Director Reed.
00:17:40What are you doing here?
00:17:43From now on, Miss Carter will serve as the new director of the project department.
00:17:48You heard him.
00:17:49I'm in charge now.
00:17:50And you are officially fired.
00:17:53I already packed your stuff.
00:17:55So get out.
00:17:58Liam, you hand over the project department to Lillian Carter?
00:18:02Of all the departments, that one?
00:18:04Are you insane?
00:18:05Lillian's capable and ambitious.
00:18:07That's why she got the job.
00:18:09Do you have a problem with that?
00:18:11If you want to pad her resume, fine.
00:18:14But assign her somewhere else.
00:18:15The project department is my territory.
00:18:17I won't have her ruin everything that I've built.
00:18:20Be realistic, April.
00:18:22You quit.
00:18:23You don't get a say anymore.
00:18:37Remember this.
00:18:38Everything that you've worked for, I can take away with one call.
00:18:42You were never taken seriously here.
00:18:46That's rich.
00:18:47Coming from a woman who lives off leftovers.
00:18:50Jobs.
00:18:51Men.
00:18:51And you think that makes you better than me.
00:18:54Whatever helps you sleep.
00:18:55But the truth is, you were just an appetizer before their main course, Aver.
00:19:00You will never be a part of our circle.
00:19:03Your circle?
00:19:04A circle that does nothing all day except rush around like livestock?
00:19:09Gee.
00:19:10No thanks.
00:19:11I'll pass.
00:19:12Enjoy rotting in it together.
00:19:13How dare you insult me like that?
00:19:22Blood?
00:19:25Avera!
00:19:26Reed!
00:19:28You will pay for this!
00:19:31Hand over done.
00:19:34I'm going to talk Liam.
00:19:36Right now!
00:19:37Good luck running Sterling Group into the ground.
00:19:42You will pay for this, Avera!
00:19:43I swear!
00:19:44Avera!
00:19:46Avera!
00:19:48Avera!
00:19:49Director Reed.
00:19:51Are you really leaving?
00:19:53Yeah.
00:19:54Mr. Sterling approved my resignation.
00:19:57We're going to miss you, Director Reed.
00:19:59Take care.
00:20:00Me too.
00:20:01And be careful working under Lillian Carter.
00:20:03Okay?
00:20:04If something goes wrong, go to Liam.
00:20:06Don't be her scapegoat.
00:20:08Especially on a multi-million dollar project.
00:20:10Hopefully she loses interest and leaves on her own soon.
00:20:14We have a rest time.
00:20:15Bye.
00:20:15Yeah.
00:20:16Goodbye.
00:20:17Take care.
00:20:25Wow.
00:20:27Oh my god.
00:20:30Can you twirl?
00:20:33You look amazing.
00:20:35Liam must be so blind to choose Lillian over this.
00:20:40This dress is too much.
00:20:42I think I should probably go and change it to something more appropriate.
00:20:46You look amazing.
00:20:48You'll definitely impress Zach with this.
00:20:50Okay.
00:20:51If Zach Jones was just after a pretty face, that assistant position wouldn't still be like it.
00:20:57Look, smart people can be hot too.
00:20:59And who knows, maybe Zach is into that.
00:21:00And this is Zach Jones we're talking about.
00:21:03One little tweak in his calendar and the entire market freaks out.
00:21:07And if you land Zach, then that bitch Lillian wouldn't dare to bark at you again.
00:21:13The rest of my life, I'm only going after money.
00:21:17Not a man.
00:21:19I know you're still hurting, but you can't be alone forever.
00:21:30Some people actually, I think you should meet.
00:21:33I believe they're here.
00:21:34They should be...
00:21:37Um, Mr. Jones, Mr. Brown.
00:21:41Mr. Jones, this is my best friend, Avra Reid.
00:21:43She really wanted to meet you in person tonight.
00:21:49In that dress, looks like you prepared Miss Riptop.
00:21:54Um, Mr. Jones, it's a pleasure to meet you.
00:21:57Miss Riptop, I didn't expect to see you again so soon.
00:22:03I told you this dress works.
00:22:07Um, Mr. Brown, do you mind if we go rob a drink?
00:22:10Sure.
00:22:20It's the real reason that you showed up today.
00:22:24Don't tell me you're stocking my measurements again.
00:22:27No, I asked for your measurements because I ruined your suit last time.
00:22:31And I wanted to buy you a new one.
00:22:33As for today, I heard you're hiring an executive assistant, and I thought that...
00:22:38You're not the right fit.
00:22:40Excuse me?
00:22:43How you doing, ma'am?
00:22:44Thank you, sir.
00:22:45Thank you, sir.
00:22:51Leo?
00:22:52What are you looking at?
00:22:53Nothing, I'm just admiring how beautiful the venue is, honey, that's all.
00:22:57Excuse me?
00:22:57This role requires real capabilities, and you show up like this, Miss Riptop,
00:23:04everyone will see something else.
00:23:06Your body, for instance.
00:23:09And that's not what I'm looking for.
00:23:11I get it.
00:23:13I'm sorry to bother you, Mr. Jones.
00:23:16Enjoy your night.
00:23:19Evra?
00:23:20Evra, wait!
00:23:22Mr. Jones!
00:23:23She's perfectly capable, I swear!
00:23:26Well, based off what she's wearing, I'd say otherwise.
00:23:29No, you got it all wrong.
00:23:31She was wearing a perfectly professional suit, and I basically forced her to change into that.
00:23:36You have to trust me!
00:23:39Look, I'm so sorry I messed up your chance.
00:23:41I really did try to explain, but maybe that door isn't completely closed yet.
00:23:46I forget about it.
00:23:47Maybe the Jones group just isn't for me.
00:23:50Alright.
00:23:53Is it true that once I leave Sterling group, once I leave Leone, I'm just nothing?
00:24:03Are you going?
00:24:06Where were you last night?
00:24:09What?
00:24:14Looking for a hickey that doesn't belong to you?
00:24:16I saw someone who looked just like you at the Gala last night.
00:24:18You must be mistaken.
00:24:21I'm going to get dressed.
00:24:27Blake, get me a private investigator.
00:24:29I need to look into something.
00:24:33Sir, just received the updated shortlist for the assistance position.
00:24:37And guess what?
00:24:38Have you ever agreed the girl from the car accident?
00:24:40She's on the list too?
00:24:42Oh, please have a look.
00:24:43Her resume is quite impressive.
00:24:45Four years at Sterling group, rose from an entry level to running the whole project department.
00:24:51Frankly, a large part of Sterling's growth is on her.
00:24:55And no one's tried to poach her yet?
00:24:57No, this is the thing.
00:24:58She was seeing the CEO, Liam Sterling.
00:25:01Then rumors hit that the Carters and Sterlings were pushing for a marriage deal.
00:25:05When she found out, she just walked away.
00:25:08Guess tough break up.
00:25:11This role requires real capabilities.
00:25:14And Miss Reed, everyone will see something else.
00:25:18Your body, for instance.
00:25:26Mr. Jones asked me to pass along his measurements.
00:25:30What is this?
00:25:33Another chance at the job?
00:25:35No.
00:25:36Don't overthink it.
00:25:38Got it.
00:25:39I'll purchase a new suit and have it delivered shortly.
00:25:42She's having the suit purchased and delivered shortly.
00:25:45Delivered?
00:25:46Shall I let Miss Reed know that you're giving her another shot for the position?
00:25:51No.
00:25:52If she's smart, she'll figure it out.
00:25:56Ma'am, here's your suit.
00:25:58Your husband has an incredible build.
00:26:00Is he a model?
00:26:02He's not my husband.
00:26:06See you next time.
00:26:08The investigator says Mrs. Sterling spent three hours shopping.
00:26:11She picked this suit for you.
00:26:13Good.
00:26:14Looks like Avery's finally come around.
00:26:28This one's mine.
00:26:29If you want lunch, go make it yourself.
00:26:33After a long day at work, you expect me to cook?
00:26:36Or pick something up outside.
00:26:38It's your call.
00:26:39To you, whatever's outside always tastes better than what's at home.
00:26:42Food.
00:26:43Beds.
00:26:44Women.
00:26:45But what the hell is that supposed to mean?
00:26:47Why are you getting so worked up?
00:26:49If you wanted that back, go ahead.
00:26:52Take it.
00:26:53Like I say, it's been a long day.
00:26:55You know I don't like tomatoes.
00:26:59Oops.
00:27:03Guess I forgot.
00:27:06You.
00:27:15Where are you going with all that?
00:27:16I told you I'm going on a trip.
00:27:20Just been to the bedroom.
00:27:22Wear the rest of your clothes.
00:27:23You don't need that much just for a trip.
00:27:25I sent everything to the clothes.
00:27:28All of them?
00:27:29Yeah.
00:27:30I finally have enough time to do a full wardrobe reset.
00:27:33And the accessories needed to freshen up too.
00:27:36The diamonds were starting to lose their sparkle.
00:27:39Well.
00:27:40Okay.
00:27:41Fair enough.
00:27:42We'll take your time with it.
00:27:44Is that a suit?
00:27:46Is it for me?
00:27:46You did not need to.
00:27:47No.
00:27:49It's for my dad.
00:27:50You mean to say you got a suit for your father?
00:27:53And it didn't even cross your mind to buy one for your own husband?
00:27:57What?
00:27:57You have enough suits.
00:28:01Jesus Christ.
00:28:06There's a supplemental agreement I need you to sign.
00:28:09Let's meet and get this thing settled.
00:28:12I'll have my lawyer handle up.
00:28:15Avera Reed.
00:28:16Your settlement jumped from 50 to 60 million dollars.
00:28:20And now you are giving me attitude over a simple addendum?
00:28:24Tomorrow.
00:28:25I'm on hotel.
00:28:27You show up in person.
00:28:32Mr. Jones will be at the Amen Hotel tomorrow afternoon.
00:28:36You can deliver the suit there.
00:28:39What a coincidence.
00:28:43Where is Avera right now?
00:28:45The investigator says Mrs. Stillen just arrived to be in that hotel.
00:28:48She's been acting weird lately.
00:28:50Prepare the car.
00:28:51We're gonna go to the hotel now.
00:28:59Why are you here?
00:29:00I'm about to marry Liam.
00:29:02So Evelyn asked me to handle the agreement between you and him.
00:29:06That way we can both get what we want.
00:29:12Cheers.
00:29:20Alright.
00:29:21Let's sign the agreement.
00:29:23I'm sure.
00:29:27Prior to the finalization of the divorce, the wife is found to have an inappropriate relationship with another man.
00:29:34This agreement shall be written to null and void. No compensation will be paid.
00:29:38This clause is strange.
00:29:41Are you done reading?
00:29:43Just sign it.
00:29:44I don't have all day.
00:29:47I'll have my lawyer review it.
00:29:49If there's nothing wrong, I'll sign it immediately.
00:29:51We need to kill you.
00:29:51I'll have 차�
00:29:59we need to kill you.
00:30:01Annabella,
00:30:03What are you doing?
00:30:04You're just going to take advantage of the divorce.
00:30:04Blame your own greed, Aver.
00:30:06You really thought you were worth 60 million?
00:30:09Maybe...
00:30:11I can send some nudes a bruise. It may not be worth much, but at least I can humiliate you.
00:30:18Stop it! Stop it! Stop it! Get off of me!
00:30:22Abra! You bitch! Get back here!
00:30:32Abra! You're not getting away! Find her! I'll pay double!
00:30:36Jeff, no.
00:30:38Catch me! It's over!
00:30:40Sir, Ms. Reed said she would be bringing over the suit, so she will be arriving shortly.
00:30:45You contacted her? Since when do you make calls like that without contacting me first?
00:31:13Miss Reed? What happened?
00:31:15Abra!
00:31:16Abra!
00:31:17Find her! Search every room!
00:31:20Help me? Please?
00:31:23Handle it.
00:31:24Sure.
00:31:27You're safe now. I've got you.
00:31:30I feel so hot. I'm burning up.
00:31:35Someone drugged you. I'm taking you to the hospital, okay?
00:31:39I don't know.
00:31:42Kiss me.
00:31:47You're not yourself right now.
00:31:50Don't do something you work with.

00:39:39This is brutal shit dragging Paul's family to the night.
00:39:43She didn't do anything wrong.
00:39:44They were together for years.
00:39:46And now, he just dumps her out of the blue and marries someone else.
00:39:51That's cold.
00:39:53Liam, no! Don't go!
00:39:57Listen carefully, Avery.
00:39:59Liam and I are getting engaged.
00:40:02We're about to be married.
00:40:03So stop hanging on to him!
00:40:06That's enough!
00:40:09Killian, do you really want to humiliate my sister in front of everyone?
00:40:14Her pet woman?
00:40:16Lucas, get your hand off me.
00:40:18Ava, don't make a scene.
00:40:20Just go home, I'll explain everything I can...
00:40:22Oh, explain what, Liam?
00:40:24That you plan to keep me in the dark where you line yourself up a mistress?
00:40:29Mistress?
00:40:29Did she really just call the Carter heiress a mistress to us face?
00:40:35Damn, she's got some balls.
00:40:37This is brutal.
00:40:38She's dragging Paul's family through the night.
00:40:41You shameless bitch.
00:40:43I'm Liam's future wife.
00:40:44How dare you call me the mistress?
00:40:46Lillian.
00:40:47Shut up, will you?
00:40:50Lillian, sweetheart.
00:40:51Don't lower yourself to her level.
00:40:53It's not worth arguing with her.
00:40:56No.
00:40:57Let her talk.
00:41:00Ava, one more word from you,
00:41:03and you can forget about your settlement.
00:41:07What settlement?
00:41:09What the fuck is going on?
00:41:13So that's what this is about.
00:41:15Money.
00:41:16I thought she really loved Liam.
00:41:18She take the money and still show that the record engagement?
00:41:21Disgusting.
00:41:22She's just jealous.
00:41:24Got dumped by her sugar daddy.
00:41:26And now?
00:41:27Let's try to squeeze out even more by making a scene.
00:41:30Mrs. Rigg, you need to leave now.
00:41:31I will make you leave myself.
00:41:34You have no right to threaten me.
00:41:36Your sister is the mistress.
00:41:38She crossed the line.
00:41:40So she should be apologizing to me.
00:41:43You're completely insane.
00:41:45Apologize to you?
00:41:46Are you out of your freaking damn mind?
00:41:48How dare you demand that from me?
00:41:50Oh.
00:41:51You think I don't have the right to say this?
00:42:02You two are married?
00:42:05You slept with a married man.
00:42:10And you?
00:42:11You cheated on me.
00:42:12And now you have the nerve to parade your engagement around?
00:42:15Do either of you even understand the law?
00:42:18Pekingese illegal.
00:42:20I really thought there was just a money grab by an ex.
00:42:23I didn't see this coming.
00:42:25The wife publicly taking down the mistress.
00:42:29This is beyond this.
00:42:30The sterling and crooked name just got drugged through the map.
00:42:35Evelyn, how could you keep something this huge from us?
00:42:39You have ruined my daughter's life.
00:42:42No, no, no.
00:42:43Mrs. Carter, please.
00:42:45This is all a misunderstanding.
00:42:48This is what the sterling family does now.
00:42:50No.
00:42:50Praying to trick us into marriage?
00:42:53Oh, and you?
00:42:55Liam Sterling?
00:42:57You better start explaining yourself to my sister right now.
00:43:00And how about you finish puberty before you start ordering me around?
00:43:05April, I am so sorry.
00:43:06I have no idea about the stupid...
00:43:08Don't do it, Liam.
00:43:10Liam.
00:43:13You make me sick.
00:43:25God damn it!
00:43:29How's that for engagement, Mom?
00:43:31It's humiliating me here in front of everybody really what you want.
00:43:34No.
00:43:36Divorces.
00:43:38Oh, God!
00:43:39I already filed the papers, and I'm taking what's mine.
00:43:43Every cent.
00:43:45Congratulations, Liam.
00:43:47He's all yours.
00:43:48I guess trash always finds its own.
00:43:53I'm bleeding.
00:43:56Fuck you bitch!
00:43:59You deserve to rot in hell for what you did last night.
00:44:03Aren't we full of surprises?
00:44:05Tell me, what happened last night?
00:44:08Ava here spent a wild night with eight men.
00:44:11One of them has HIV.
00:44:13What?
00:44:14I wasn't even planning to expose you yet.
00:44:17I wasn't even planning to expose you yet.
00:44:18But here you are, confessing your own set up.
00:44:21Stupid.
00:44:21And evil.
00:44:25Is this your ideal daughter-in-law?
00:44:27A criminal?
00:44:29No, I, I, I, I...
00:44:31Wait, so Lillian and Evelyn, they planned us up together?
00:44:36What did you do to Ava?
00:44:37Tell me!
00:44:38Stick to death in the shit!
00:44:40I didn't do anything.
00:44:42She did it to herself!
00:44:43She's throwing herself at men like a total whore!
00:44:46Come on.
00:44:47No one realized I've eight men one night,
00:44:48and one of them just happened to be HIV positive?
00:44:51That must be a stare.
00:44:53Lillian's vicious.
00:44:54Stealing someone's husband wasn't enough.
00:44:57She had to destroy the wife too.
00:45:00That's insane!
00:45:05Hey, Lillian, let her go.
00:45:07She clearly doesn't mean any of it.
00:45:09Okay, wait.
00:45:11Let's just be honest.
00:45:12Maybe Ava just couldn't handle being alone.
00:45:15So she went out, she fooled around,
00:45:17and eventually the rumors came back to Lillian.
00:45:20You knew very well that the truth would come out.
00:45:22So you staged this little ridiculous scene
00:45:25to frame my daughter.
00:45:27You're disgusting.
00:45:30Right?
00:45:30A friend saw Ava walking to a hotel room
00:45:33with a group of men.
00:45:35One of them is a well-known womanizer,
00:45:36HIV positive!
00:45:40Look, Ava,
00:45:41I didn't want to say any of this,
00:45:43but after what you just did to me,
00:45:45you may still be married to Lillian,
00:45:47but he loves me.
00:45:49He doesn't love you anymore,
00:45:50and you should have stepped aside a long time ago!
00:45:55How could someone be that shameless?
00:45:58Tell me,
00:45:59is what you've just said about Ava true?
00:46:01I swear it's true.
00:46:03I swear on my own life,
00:46:05Liam, you have to believe me!
00:46:06Make a scene all you want, Ava.
00:46:09Once Liam cools down,
00:46:11he'll choose me.
00:46:12No hesitation.
00:46:13You never stood a chance.
00:46:16I guess you really don't believe in karma.
00:46:20Fine.
00:46:21Let's see how confident you are
00:46:24when you see this.
00:46:39How did she have that video?
00:46:41I made sure the cameras were wiped.
00:46:43It's fake!
00:46:44That is AI-generated footage!
00:46:46Hello, that doesn't even look like me!
00:46:48If it's still not enough for you,
00:46:51the men you hired,
00:46:53they're ready to testify,
00:46:54and they're in custody.
00:46:56And they're waiting for you.
00:46:59No.
00:47:00If I confess,
00:47:01Liam will leave me.
00:47:02I'll lose everything.
00:47:04It was everyone!
00:47:05She planned everything!
00:47:06She made me do it!
00:47:11Wow.
00:47:11Even Hollywood wouldn't dare
00:47:13to do something this dramatic.
00:47:15Ms. Reed really knows how to play this game
00:47:17and win.
00:47:18It's just getting started.
00:47:20Should we go catch the live version?
00:47:22Absolutely.
00:47:23After you, sir.
00:47:24No, it's not true.
00:47:26I never forced Lillian.
00:47:29She came to me
00:47:31and said she had a way
00:47:32to get Aver to sign
00:47:34that settlement agreement.
00:47:35And that's why I asked
00:47:37Aver to come to the hotel to meet.
00:47:40I just thought that Lillian
00:47:41would scare Aver just a little bit.
00:47:43I never thought she would do
00:47:45something so vicious to Aver.
00:47:48Ms. Sterling,
00:47:49it was you!
00:47:50You came to me!
00:47:51You told me that Aver was greedy,
00:47:53that she kept pushing
00:47:54for a higher settlement.
00:47:56You was afraid
00:47:56that the Lillian would hate you,
00:47:58so I felt sorry for you,
00:47:59so I stepped in
00:48:00and I helped you.
00:48:01No, no, that's not true.
00:48:03Yes, it is!
00:48:03It's nonsense!
00:48:04It's true!
00:48:05Mrs. Sterling,
00:48:06you trapped my sister into this.
00:48:08You used her.
00:48:10The Sterling family
00:48:11really has no morals at all.
00:48:13Ha!
00:48:14Do they?
00:48:15My future with Lillian
00:48:16is with the fall.
00:48:21Seeing you two turn on each other,
00:48:25oh, well, it just warms my heart.
00:48:28Look, Aver,
00:48:29I'm really sorry, truly.
00:48:31I will pay for all your medical treatments.
00:48:34Medical science moves fast these days.
00:48:36Who knows?
00:48:36Even HIV may be curable someday.
00:48:39But for your kind of evil, Lillian,
00:48:42there isn't...
00:48:43You were born rotten.
00:48:45I guess I have to disappoint you, though.
00:48:49Someone stepped in yesterday,
00:48:51so your little plan didn't work.
00:48:53I'm not sick,
00:48:55and I'm not dying.
00:48:57But you,
00:48:59you're going to prison
00:49:00because I already called the cops.
00:49:05So, Aver said it now,
00:49:07you...
00:49:08last night isn't true.
00:49:10That's impossible!
00:49:12The suite was isolated.
00:49:13No staff, no cameras.
00:49:14Who the hell would save you?
00:49:16Come on.
00:49:17A kind stranger.
00:49:18A kind stranger.
00:49:19Oh, please.
00:49:20You're just saying that
00:49:21so you don't look pathetic
00:49:22in front of Liam.
00:49:24I don't care what Liam thinks.
00:49:27And even if something had happened yesterday,
00:49:31I wouldn't be the pathetic one.
00:49:33You would.
00:49:34Because you
00:49:36set it up.
00:49:38Bullshit.
00:49:40Where is this kind stranger, huh?
00:49:41Bring him in!
00:49:42Let everyone see!
00:49:44Well, he's...
00:49:45I can't drive Mr. Jones into this.
00:49:48See?
00:49:49Nothing to say.
00:49:51Do you know why?
00:49:51Because you're a liar!
00:49:53It was me!
00:50:05Wait, is that Zach Jones?
00:50:07Oh my god, that Zach Jones?
00:50:09There's only one Zach Jones.
00:50:11The Jones hit.
00:50:12What is he doing here?
00:50:14Hold on.
00:50:15Did he say he saved Averro?
00:50:22Mr. Jones!
00:50:25I overheard someone trying to ruin your name
00:50:27and I couldn't just stand by.
00:50:30I hope I haven't made things worse.
00:50:32No.
00:50:33Mr. Jones, if anything,
00:50:34I'm the one dragging you into this.
00:50:37It's no worries.
00:50:37You can repay me later.
00:50:38I was meeting a client
00:50:40at that hotel
00:50:41when I happened to run into Averro
00:50:43in the hallway.
00:50:44She was in a daze.
00:50:45Clearly in trouble.
00:50:47So I stepped in
00:50:49and I handled those guys.
00:50:52How does a big shot like Mr. Jones
00:50:54just show up in the middle of this chaos
00:50:56and save me twice?
00:50:58Maybe I was such a mess
00:50:59that even a stranger couldn't walk away.
00:51:01That's just your word!
00:51:03You can't prove anything!
00:51:05Shut it, Lillian.
00:51:07This man.
00:51:07is here to the Dense Empire.
00:51:09So even if something
00:51:10had happened to Averro
00:51:12who says it didn't,
00:51:13everyone in this room
00:51:14is going to keep their world shut.
00:51:17Well,
00:51:18thank you for
00:51:19handling those guys
00:51:20and
00:51:21saving
00:51:22my wife.
00:51:25You don't get to thank anyone
00:51:26on my back.
00:51:28And I'm not your wife.
00:51:30The divorce ruling
00:51:31will be delivered to you
00:51:32tomorrow morning.
00:51:33We're done.
00:51:34Come on, Averro.
00:51:35You're not really
00:51:37divorcing me.
00:51:38I don't believe it.
00:51:40You love me.
00:51:43I know what this is.
00:51:45You're angry,
00:51:46you're emotional,
00:51:47and you're just trying
00:51:48to get a reaction from me.
00:51:50My God,
00:51:51you think a lot
00:51:52of yourself.
00:51:54The police are already
00:51:55on their way.
00:51:56And before you worry
00:51:57about the divorce,
00:51:58maybe check on your
00:51:59criminal mistress
00:52:00and your mom.
00:52:02and don't think
00:52:03you're getting away
00:52:03with it.
00:52:04The men Lillian hired
00:52:06already confessed.
00:52:07They said
00:52:08you were involved.
00:52:10What?
00:52:13Sweetie,
00:52:13you really think
00:52:14I could do something
00:52:14so cruel?
00:52:15I would do nothing
00:52:16to hurt you.
00:52:17I'll never,
00:52:17never hurt you.
00:52:18Never.
00:52:19You have been
00:52:19hurting me
00:52:20every single day.
00:52:23And you still
00:52:24had the nerve
00:52:25to say that.
00:52:26I found out
00:52:27about you
00:52:27and Lillian
00:52:28a long time ago.
00:52:29Your affair
00:52:30has been tortured
00:52:31day after day.
00:52:33Tell me,
00:52:34what did I do wrong?
00:52:36I never
00:52:37deserved that.
00:52:48Use Olivia Porta.
00:52:53Lillian Carter.
00:52:55Evelyn Sterling.
00:52:56Lyon Sterling.
00:52:57You are all
00:52:58under arrest.
00:53:00You can't touch me.
00:53:02Stop!
00:53:03Dad!
00:53:05You know,
00:53:07I already figured
00:53:08everything out.
00:53:09Liam had no part
00:53:10of it.
00:53:11But I still
00:53:13wanted to see
00:53:13him arrested.
00:53:15Did that make you
00:53:15feel better?
00:53:16Getting your revenge?
00:53:18It did.
00:53:20And I am
00:53:22so exhausted
00:53:24now.
00:53:24Let's
00:53:25get you home
00:53:26so you can
00:53:26get some rest.
00:53:27Yeah.
00:53:40Right.
00:53:43I should
00:53:44go.
00:53:46Yeah.
00:53:47See you later.
00:53:48Or never.
00:53:52Cheers to your new life.
00:53:55You're not going to believe
00:53:56how nasty Sterling and Carter
00:53:58legal teams are.
00:53:59They tried everything
00:54:00to get bailed.
00:54:02And then I slammed the evidence
00:54:03right on the table.
00:54:04Okay, so
00:54:05Lillian's going to jail for sure.
00:54:07And then Carter
00:54:08has at least
00:54:0924 hours until he can get out.
00:54:11It's a shame
00:54:11cheating isn't a crime.
00:54:13He got up
00:54:13way too easy.
00:54:15Do you think
00:54:16after everything
00:54:16that you've been through
00:54:18you'll believe
00:54:18in love again?
00:54:19I'm not going to let
00:54:20one asshole
00:54:21ruin my faith
00:54:22in all men.
00:54:23Although
00:54:23if someone
00:54:24does get a bit
00:54:25too close
00:54:26I may take a step back.
00:54:28That's my girl.
00:54:30Okay,
00:54:30enough about that.
00:54:31Tell me about
00:54:32your trip to China.
00:54:34Maybe I'll be a man there.
00:54:49Miss Reed
00:54:49going somewhere?
00:54:51The airport.
00:54:52That's perfect.
00:54:54That's where we going to.
00:54:55Oh no,
00:54:56it's fine.
00:54:57I've already called a riot.
00:54:58Cancel it.
00:54:59Problem solved.
00:55:00Please,
00:55:00hop in.
00:55:19Good morning,
00:55:20Mr. Jones.
00:55:21Good morning.
00:55:23Are you going on a trip?
00:55:25Yes.
00:55:26Where?
00:55:27China.
00:55:28That's
00:55:29far.
00:55:31Yeah,
00:55:32pretty far.
00:55:33Was this trip
00:55:34planned or
00:55:35a last minute decision?
00:55:37Of course it was planned.
00:55:38It was...
00:55:41Damn it.
00:55:42He's testing me.
00:55:44Miss Reed,
00:55:45does this mean
00:55:46that you're giving up
00:55:46on the job position?
00:55:48Well,
00:55:48the plan was
00:55:50if I was
00:55:51given the offer
00:55:52I'd cancel the trip.
00:55:54But
00:55:54since
00:55:55Mr. Jones
00:55:56turned me down
00:55:58I guess
00:55:59vacation is.
00:56:00And what if I change my mind?
00:56:04You mean
00:56:05I got the job?
00:56:06Well,
00:56:06unless you
00:56:07would rather
00:56:07keep traveling.
00:56:08No,
00:56:09no,
00:56:09I can cancel
00:56:09the trip.
00:56:10I can
00:56:10start anytime,
00:56:12boss.
00:56:13Anytime?
00:56:14Anytime you want.
00:56:16Ben,
00:56:16once we're on the plane,
00:56:18update Miss Reed
00:56:19on all the details
00:56:20of this trip.
00:56:21Yes, boss?
00:56:22So a free ride
00:56:23and a job offer?
00:56:25Guess the universe
00:56:26finally cut me a break.
00:56:29What?
00:56:30Liam is out.
00:56:32He tracked your flight.
00:56:33He's heading to the airport
00:56:34right now.
00:56:35That bastard's lost it,
00:56:36Ibera.
00:56:37You should turn back
00:56:38now.
00:56:39Okay,
00:56:40I got it.
00:56:41Relax.
00:56:42Boss has a private jet
00:56:43and this car will run
00:56:45all the way
00:56:45to the runway.
00:56:46Liam will not get
00:56:47anywhere near him.
00:56:49Perfect.
00:56:50That's the upside
00:56:51of having a very powerful
00:56:52boss watching your back.
00:56:55Ah!
00:56:56Ah!
00:56:58Ah!
00:56:59Ah!
00:57:01Ah!
00:57:02Ah!
00:57:02Ah!
00:57:03Ah!
00:57:09Miss Reed!
00:57:10You guys okay?
00:57:12A cat just run
00:57:13across the street.
00:57:15I'm fine.
00:57:16Miss Reed,
00:57:17if you remain
00:57:18this distracted,
00:57:20I may not need
00:57:20to process
00:57:21your onboarding paperwork
00:57:22at all.
00:57:23I'm sorry,
00:57:24I...
00:57:24it won't happen again.
00:57:26I'm here.
00:57:27We'll see.
00:57:31It's live.
00:57:33All right,
00:57:33I'll...
00:57:34well...
00:57:35So,
00:57:35here's Mr. Jones'
00:57:36schedule
00:57:37and all the
00:57:38highlighted parts
00:57:39are your responsibility
00:57:40now.
00:57:42Starting from today,
00:57:43you will be in charge
00:57:44of his daily life.
00:57:46Wait,
00:57:47wake-up calls too?
00:57:48That's part of my job.
00:57:50Well,
00:57:50I used to take care
00:57:51of all these things,
00:57:52but now you're here
00:57:53so I can finally
00:57:54take a breath.
00:57:55And just so you know,
00:57:58the boss is...
00:57:59kind of particular.
00:58:01I'll leave it all to you.
00:58:23I'll leave it all to you.
00:58:33So Ben basically
00:58:35dumped the boss's
00:58:36entire personal life
00:58:37on me?
00:58:43Ugh.
00:58:45Forget it.
00:58:46Just don't think of him
00:58:47as a man.
00:58:48He's the boss.
00:58:50That's it.
00:58:52Mr. Jones,
00:58:53it's time to wake up.
00:59:03Sir,
00:59:04it's five o'clock.
00:59:05You should get up.
00:59:08Seriously,
00:59:09is he always this grumpy
00:59:11when he gets woken up?
00:59:12Sir,
00:59:13you really should...
00:59:24Sir,
00:59:25it's five,
00:59:26and you really should get up.
00:59:34I was supposed to
00:59:35wake him up.
00:59:35How did that end up
00:59:37with me kissing him?
00:59:39No.
00:59:40No,
00:59:40it's a professional.
00:59:42It won't happen again.
00:59:46Hey, girl.
00:59:48Why haven't you
00:59:49woken the boss yet?
00:59:51I...
00:59:51I tried.
00:59:52Yeah,
00:59:53I know.
00:59:53It's not easy.
00:59:54But you will get used to it.
00:59:57I guess from now on,
00:59:58I will be real-eyed.
00:59:59Wait.
01:00:00Ben's been through this too?
01:00:03Sir,
01:00:04you really have to wake up.
01:00:06Oh my God.
01:00:08Does Zach have a thing for...
01:00:10Matt?
01:00:11Why are you looking at me like that?
01:00:14I...
01:00:14Nothing.
01:00:15Nothing.
01:00:16It's just thinking
01:00:17this job isn't easy.
01:00:19Yeah.
01:00:27No job is easy.
01:00:29But you will get used to it.
01:00:31You seem surprisingly upbeat.
01:00:33What's yours do I have?
01:00:35I cannot punch the boss, right?
01:00:38You're right.
01:00:39I guess I still have a lot to learn.
01:00:43Good afternoon, sir.
01:00:45Good afternoon, Mr. Jones.
01:00:47Hey, brah.
01:00:48Water?
01:00:49Oh!
01:00:50Yeah.
01:00:54Here you go, sir.
01:00:58Here.
01:01:00Easy.
01:01:01Just take small sips.
01:01:04It was just a mistake.
01:01:06You don't need to stress about it.
01:01:08Wait.
01:01:08Hey, friend.
01:01:09You made a mistake.
01:01:10When did this happen?
01:01:12Oh.
01:01:14Oh.
01:01:26President Jones, welcome.
01:01:29Thank you, thank you.
01:01:30This is my granddaughter, Tina.
01:01:32You're both just about the same age.
01:01:34So I thought you could get to know each other better?
01:01:37President Jones, it's a pleasure to meet you.
01:01:41The pleasure's all mine.
01:01:43Because of course, we'd have known that Mr. Fisher's trying to set him up.
01:01:46He never would have come.
01:01:48President Jones, I hear you have an excellent taste in wine.
01:01:51I'll have to try the selection tonight.
01:01:55It's not like you could be straight up with him.
01:01:57I invited you here to meet my granddaughter.
01:01:59I think you two would really hit it off.
01:02:01Not a chance.
01:02:03She's not even close to the boss's type.
01:02:07Wait.
01:02:08How do you know?
01:02:09Of course I know.
01:02:11What is she doing here?
01:02:13Who?
01:02:20It's Clara Harris.
01:02:22General Manager of the Germany brands.
01:02:24Long time no see, Ms. Harris.
01:02:26Ben, long time no see.
01:02:27And this is...
01:02:29Ms. Harris, I'm Avera.
01:02:31I'm the CEO's new executive assistant.
01:02:34And assistant.
01:02:35I see.
01:02:39This is...
01:02:40She's actually the daughter of Mrs. Jones' best friend.
01:02:44She grew up amongst the Jones family.
01:02:48She and the boss are going to go way back.
01:02:51They have a kind of a complicated history together.
01:02:54Ah, got it.
01:02:57So that's why Germany was the first stop.
01:03:00Because she's here.
01:03:03I've got to see you tonight, then.
01:03:05Especially President Fischer's welcome dinner.
01:03:08Come on.
01:03:09Have another drink with me.
01:03:11Ah.
01:03:12Clara's drunk.
01:03:13Get her out of here.
01:03:14I'm not drunk.
01:03:15I want to have another drink with you.
01:03:18Oh, hands up.
01:03:21Miss Harris, how about we just...
01:03:23It's not.
01:03:37President Fischer...
01:03:38Excuse us, please.
01:03:46I think I should just...
01:03:48Goodbye.
01:04:00Wow, I guess the boss is a lot wilder off the clock.
01:04:06Let go, Clara.
01:04:08Jamie likes me, but it's not my fault.
01:04:11You always handed me out of him without even asking.
01:04:14I told you, you can't have everything you want.
01:04:17I only want you, Zack. I need you.
01:04:21No, what you need is a therapist. You are sick.
01:04:26I'm sick. Ever since the day you said you didn't love me, I've been sick. Please, Zack.
01:04:37I just came to drop off your jacket.
01:04:40What did you see?
01:04:42Nothing.
01:04:44Okay, I saw something. But just a glance. I swear I didn't stare.
01:04:48A glance at what?
01:04:51That.
01:04:53Be specific.
01:04:55Kissing? Like, very intense kissing?
01:04:58No, no, you saw it wrong.
01:05:00Okay, I saw it wrong.
01:05:02You don't believe me?
01:05:03No, no, I do. I really do.
01:05:07I don't do kissing.
01:05:10Especially not with women.
01:05:13But that afternoon in the hotel, we...
01:05:17What? What hotel?
01:05:20Nothing.
01:05:20Nothing.
01:05:22Nothing.
01:05:23Anyways, there was no kissing.
01:05:26And as my assistant, it's your job to know your boss well enough.
01:05:30That's it.
01:05:31Yes. Right. Absolutely.
01:05:34Here. Call her a car.
01:05:37Get her home.
01:05:39Aren't you taking her back yourself?
01:05:42He just kissed her?
01:05:44What?
01:05:44It isn't exactly safe for Miss Harris to go back alone.
01:05:48Shouldn't you take her back to the hotel?
01:05:51Whatever.
01:05:52Once you're there, she's your responsibility.
01:05:57What?
01:06:00Men are all the same.
01:06:02They either cheat or disappear.
01:06:07Come on.
01:06:10Don't answer unknown numbers.
01:06:12Don't reply.
01:06:13It is all Liam.
01:06:14Afra, where are you?
01:06:15You used the infidelity clause to force the divorce.
01:06:18Were you planning this the whole time?
01:06:20Please, Afra.
01:06:21I was wrong.
01:06:22I was a bastard.
01:06:24You can punish me however you want.
01:06:25Just don't end me like this.
01:06:27I'm begging you.
01:06:28Please give me one more chance.
01:06:32Liam, you're over.
01:06:34I will never let you drag me back into hell.
01:06:44Come to my room.
01:06:47Yes, sir.
01:06:52Sir?
01:06:55Come here.
01:07:18I'm hungry.
01:07:21I'm hungry.
01:07:22My stomach.
01:07:23Oh.
01:07:25That hungry.
01:07:26I thought you meant...
01:07:27Yeah.
01:07:28This used to be Ben's show.
01:07:30Ben's at this too?
01:07:33Jesus, what's going on in your head?
01:07:35Get out.
01:07:36Now.
01:07:38Yes, sir.
01:07:45I'm here to give you your court ruling.
01:07:47And as a reminder, the compensation is due immediately.
01:07:52Afra has had enough.
01:07:53And if you try to stall, she will fight till the very end.
01:07:58We have more than enough proof of your affairs.
01:08:01I assume you don't want another charity gala turned into a public execution, do you?
01:08:06You think you can threaten me?
01:08:08Look at me when I'm talking to you.
01:08:09I'll give her everything.
01:08:11All of the money.
01:08:12I don't care.
01:08:13And everything that she sold, I can buy it back like that.
01:08:17But I've never...
01:08:19NEVER!
01:08:20Divorce her.
01:08:21Do you understand?
01:08:24You have lost your right to say no when you slept with that girl.
01:08:29We know everything that you've done.
01:08:32All she wants now is for you to get out of her life.
01:08:35Asshole.
01:08:50Mr. Sterling, we've located your wife.
01:08:56Where is Afra?
01:08:58Mrs. Sterling flew to Germany with Zack Jones.
01:09:02What?
01:09:04Take a look at this.
01:09:05There's something off about the factory's data.
01:09:08Okay, the attendance logs match the payroll.
01:09:11But the actual head count is down by two people.
01:09:15Yeah, you're right.
01:09:16If this is actually happening, then somebody's definitely siphoning money.
01:09:20Yeah, and it's gone unnoticed for ten years.
01:09:23I think there's internal collusion in the factory.
01:09:26If we don't move fast, then once they realize, they'll destroy the evidence.
01:09:31Yeah, absolutely.
01:09:33But I have a meeting to attend with the CEO.
01:09:36Yes, I...
01:09:36Well, I'll go to the factory.
01:09:38Okay.
01:09:38Okay.
01:09:39Well, then if somebody pops up, then just call me.
01:09:43Okay.
01:09:43Got it.
01:09:49The contractor, the card group, have it finalized and on my desk first thing tomorrow morning.
01:09:55Okay.
01:09:55And notify our tech department.
01:09:57Meeting at 10 a.m.
01:10:01And...
01:10:02Where's Avera?
01:10:03Oh, she went to the factory site this morning.
01:10:06Some numbers didn't end up.
01:10:08She thinks that somebody's been padding payroll.
01:10:12Actually, she seems to have been back by now.
01:10:15Call her.
01:10:16Sure.
01:10:18We're sorry. Your call cannot be completed as dialed.
01:10:21She's not answering the phone.
01:10:25Get the car.
01:10:26We're going to the factory.
01:10:28Yes.
01:10:32Pass this message down.
01:10:34There's no word from Avera in the next hour.
01:10:36I want every manager from that branch and the factory fired.
01:10:41On what grounds, sir?
01:10:43No grounds.
01:10:45Anyone who dares touch my people will feel my wrath.
01:10:49Hey!
01:10:50Mr. Jones!
01:10:51Mr. Sterling!
01:10:52Where's my wife?
01:10:53She's missing.
01:10:54Missing?
01:10:55What do you mean she's missing?
01:10:57Mr. Sterling, calm down.
01:10:59Ms. Reed is Mr. Jones' personal assistant right now.
01:11:03This morning she went to the factory because there were some issues.
01:11:05Until now she hasn't returned and we cannot reach her.
01:11:08That's the reason why we go to the factory right now to find out what's going on.
