00:00:01So this is New York. The Big Apple. These buildings are so tall they could poke a hole in the
00:00:07sky.
00:00:08Come on, Daisy. Make it work in New York, make the money, and Dad gets his kidney surgery.
00:00:22Sir, can you hear me?
00:00:24Hey kid, don't touch him. In New York, being a good Samaritan can bankrupt you.
00:00:29Yeah, if he dies in your arms, you're getting sued for life.
00:00:32He can barely breathe, and you're just gonna stand there and watch?
00:00:42Hang in there, sir. Deep breaths. Come on, stay with me.
00:00:50Kid, was... was it you who saved me?
00:00:54Thank God, you're awake. Are you feeling better now?
00:01:01Kid, do you have a boyfriend?
00:01:03Uh, sir, I literally just got to New York. Dating isn't exactly on my to-do list yet.
00:01:08Good, I have a grandson. Julian. Cold as ice. Works too much.
00:01:12He needs someone like you to bring some sunshine into his life.
00:01:23Let go of him. Write her a check. Make her leave. I've seen this kind of street scam before.
00:01:29Excuse me? You think having money gives you the right to insult people?
00:01:33That's enough, Julian. She saved my life.
00:01:37Julian, this is the girl I choose for you. Now take her to the marriage bureau and get married. Today.
00:01:47Grandpa, this whole payback act ends now.
00:01:50Marcus has the check ready. Take the money and send her on her way.
00:01:55Send her away? Julian, you think my life is worth a check?
00:02:00Then what exactly do you want? You seriously expect me to marry some random homeless girl?
00:02:05She is not homeless. She saved my life. Show some respect.
00:02:12Listen carefully. You're pushing our global towards an IPO, but you only control 35% of the voting shares.
00:02:22Without 15%, the board will throw you out before the IPO even happens. Marry her.
00:02:28What?
00:02:29Keep it private for one year. A real legal marriage. 12 months.
00:02:33After the IPO, my 15% goes to you. Otherwise, you can start packing up your CEO office.
00:02:38You can't be serious.
00:02:42Mom, it's me. I made it to New York.
00:02:45Daisy, they found a kidney donor for your father, but the surgery and recovery will cost at least $100,000.
00:02:51If we can't pay by next week, they'll give the donor to someone else.
00:02:55Mom, don't panic. I'll figure something out. I promise.
00:03:05Sir, I accept your proposal.
00:03:07That was quick. So what's the price?
00:03:11I need $100,000. Turn, I'll cooperate and fulfill the one year marriage.
00:03:15100 grand. Not bad. Saving a life really pays well, huh?
00:03:18Done. I'll transfer the money immediately as part of the marriage contract.
00:03:23Then we make this clear right now. Rule number one, this marriage stays private. No one finds out who you
00:03:27are.
00:03:27Two, you stay out of my personal life. Three, one year from now, you take the money and disappear.
00:03:32Deal.
00:03:35Are you both entering this marriage voluntarily?
00:03:39Yes.
00:03:41Yes.
00:03:46The contract is now in effect. Marcus will wire the money to you.
00:03:51Thank you. I'll report to work as soon as possible. Today's my first day. I can't be late.
00:03:56Work? Where do you work?
00:03:58Sterling Global. My childhood friend Caleb helped me get the job. It's just an entry-level janitor position, but I'll
00:04:03do my best.
00:04:06Get in. I'll drop you off on the way.
00:04:08Wow. This car rides really smooth. Must cost at least $50,000, right?
00:04:15Something like that.
00:04:16Ma'am, this custom colonon costs over half a million just in upgrades, and you think it's 50 grand?
00:04:28Hi, I'm Daisy Miller. I'm the new janitor starting today.
00:04:32Ugh. What's that smell?
00:04:34Let me guess. Kentucky? This is a global financial headquarters, not some farm.
00:04:39A job is a job. I'm here to work, not to impress anyone's nose.
00:04:43Got some attitude, huh?
00:04:46Good morning, Miss People Like This now. Where are ya?
00:04:48Julian hates unprofessional staff.
00:04:50Brendan, keep an eye on her. Don't let her dirty the lobby floors.
00:04:53Julian?
00:04:53You think you can just say Mr. Sterling's name like that?
00:04:56He's the king of this building, and you are just dust on the floor.
00:05:00Julian.
00:05:02Same name as my husband? No way. Could he actually be?
00:05:12Wow, Daisy? Seriously? This is how you clean?
00:05:16Water all over the floor? What if a VIP slips?
00:05:19You planning to pay the lawsuit out of your janitor's salary?
00:05:21I'll dry it right now.
00:05:24Oh my god, my shoes! Do you have any idea what these cost?
00:05:28I'm so sorry, Miss Victoria. I didn't mean to-
00:05:32Unbelievable. It's clear some people haven't learned proper manners.
00:05:37You can't even walk without making a mess.
00:05:39Those dirty hands of yours touched my shoes. You couldn't afford them in ten lifetimes.
00:05:45I said I was sorry. You can't just hit people.
00:05:48Can't. Honey, you ruined Miss Victoria's shoes.
00:05:51The fact that you still have a job right now is already a miracle.
00:05:54Get on your knees and wipe them clean.
00:05:56No.
00:05:57No?
00:05:58Brenda?
00:05:59Maybe she doesn't understand how things work here.
00:06:02Hm. Show her.
00:06:07Good morning, Mr. Sterling.
00:06:19Daisy?
00:06:21Julian.
00:06:24Who hit her?
00:06:30Julian, you actually know this janitor?
00:06:35Sterling Global doesn't tolerate trash that bullies its own staff.
00:06:39Marcus.
00:06:41Remove this receptionate from Manhattan. Effective immediately.
00:06:45And make sure she never works in finance again.
00:06:48Mr. Sterling, please. I'm begging you.
00:06:52I didn't know she was connected to you.
00:06:56Get her out of my sight.
00:07:01Come with me.
00:07:10I kept my identity hidden for a reason.
00:07:14I wanted to see what kind of person you really were.
00:07:17Most people would have jumped at the chance to call themselves Mrs. Sterling.
00:07:21Used the name, pulled favors, climbed their way up.
00:07:27But you actually showed up here to mop floors.
00:07:30Mr. Sterling, do rich people really think poor people are born greedy?
00:07:34Like we're all just waiting for a shortcut?
00:07:37That's enough.
00:07:38You are legally Mrs. Sterling.
00:07:40I'm not letting my wife walk around in a janitor uniform.
00:07:42Assistant marketing manager.
00:07:44Starting tomorrow.
00:07:46No.
00:07:47No?
00:07:48I came to New York to earn money and save my dad.
00:07:51With my own hands.
00:07:53Not by marrying into money.
00:07:54Not by taking a shortcut someone handed to me.
00:07:58Maybe you think janitors are embarrassing.
00:08:00I don't.
00:08:01I work hard, I earn honestly, and I sleep just fine at night.
00:08:05If this marriage is supposed to stay secret, then let it stay secret.
00:08:09Completely.
00:08:10You'd rather scrub floors than sit in a manager's office?
00:08:13Yes.
00:08:16Mr. Sterling, for this one year I'm your temporary wife.
00:08:20You don't need to control my life and no one else can shape who I'll become but myself.
00:08:36Daisy, come here.
00:08:44What are you doing?
00:08:46Nothing.
00:08:47Just curious.
00:09:00I'm sorry, I need to get back to work.
00:09:11That's the girl.
00:09:12The one who crossed Victoria and somehow kept her job.
00:09:15Yeah, and I heard she was in the CEO's office earlier.
00:09:17Come on, nobody gets that kind of access for free.
00:09:19Small town girl from Kentucky?
00:09:21She's definitely playing some kind of game.
00:09:23Hey, don't listen to them.
00:09:25But you really should be careful around Victoria.
00:09:28Why?
00:09:28She's from the Vance family.
00:09:30Old money, big influence.
00:09:32And she and Mr. Sterling grew up together.
00:09:35Basically childhood sweethearts.
00:09:42Julian, hold on.
00:09:44Your tie's crooked.
00:09:46Let me fix it.
00:09:50See what I mean?
00:09:51The whole company already treats her like the future Mrs. Sterling.
00:09:55Three years ago, Julian was in a terrible car accident.
00:09:57A mysterious girl saved him.
00:09:59Most people believe that girl was Victoria.
00:10:03So, there's already someone in his heart.
00:10:10Chloe, about what you said earlier, the woman who saved his life.
00:10:14Was that really Victoria?
00:10:16Honestly?
00:10:17No idea.
00:10:18But for the past three years, Victoria's been acting like she's the one.
00:10:21And Julian never correct it.
00:10:23If anything, he lets her.
00:10:26Daisy, just hear me out.
00:10:29Don't fall for the CEO.
00:10:31Guys like him don't fall in love easily.
00:10:34And if they do, it's usually with the woman who saved their life.
00:10:38So this marriage was never real to him.
00:10:41Just something he did to keep his grandfather happy.
00:10:45And me, I'm just a placeholder.
00:10:48Sir, regarding your marriage, should we file it with the board?
00:10:53No.
00:10:54Keep it confidential.
00:10:56During the agreement period, I don't want anyone disturbing her life.
00:11:01Julian, what the hell did I just see in HR?
00:11:04You got married? Who is she?
00:11:06Victoria, you don't walk into my office without knocking.
00:11:11I came to this company because of you.
00:11:14I stayed here for three years because of you.
00:11:17And now you just marry some random woman? Just like that? Who is she?
00:11:20That's not your concern. Leave.
00:11:24Julian!
00:11:25Now.
00:11:27I hear Julian is married.
00:11:29Arthur always did have a sharp eye for people.
00:11:31Any girl he approves of must be special.
00:11:35My lady, we've learned that the new Mrs. Sterling works at Sterling Global.
00:11:38Her identity is being kept strictly confidential.
00:11:42Is that so? Then I suppose it's time for the godmother to pay a visit.
00:11:46Prepare something simple for me to wear, nothing expensive.
00:11:49I'll go to Sterling Global myself. Quietly.
00:11:53I want to see for myself whether my godson's wife is worthy of the Sterling name.
00:12:06Oh, god.
00:12:12Hey, no, no, no. You can't sit there.
00:12:14That seating is for VIP clients, not for people wandering in off the street.
00:12:19I twisted my ankle. I just need a minute to sit.
00:12:22Then sit outside. There's a sidewalk for that.
00:12:24Don't mess up our lobby. Get up.
00:12:30Tiffany, what's the problem? Why is she still here?
00:12:33Mrs. Victoria, she won't leave. Says she hurt her ankle.
00:12:38Hurt her ankle? Or looking for a payout?
00:12:42Ma'am, Sterling Global has a top-tier legal department.
00:12:46If you're planning to fake an injury and sue us, you picked the wrong place.
00:12:51Is this how young socialists behave now?
00:12:55No courtesy. No grace. How unfortunate.
00:13:01Excuse me? You crazy old woman!
00:13:04Look at you! And you think you get to judge me?!
00:13:09Tiffany, call security. Get her out of here.
00:13:13Stop. She's injured. You can't just throw her out.
00:13:16Of course. Daisy again. Don't you have floors to clean?
00:13:20Or is interfering in company business part of your job now?
00:13:25It's okay, ma'am. I've got something that can help.
00:13:28I brought this from Tucky. It's really good for springs and swelling.
00:13:32Thank you, dear. Kindness like this is hard to find in New York.
00:13:37Wow. The country girl and the old beggar. What a perfect match.
00:13:45Security! Get these two out of here!
00:13:49Miss Victoria, you can't fire me just because I helped someone.
00:13:52Can't? Let me explain something to you.
00:13:54At Sterling Global, what I say goes. If I want you out, you're out.
00:13:58Don't be afraid, dear. Anyone who touches you today will answer to Julian personally. I promise you that.
00:14:06Julian, thank God you're here. This janitor brought in some unstable old girl and caused a huge disturbance. She even
00:14:13talked back to management. I was just about to have them removed.
00:14:18Godmother? Why are you dressed like this?
00:14:20Julian, your company is quite something. This manager just called me a lunatic from the slums and tried to have
00:14:27me thrown out.
00:14:36Victoria, what exactly did you say to her?
00:14:41I didn't know it was Lady Montgomery. I thought she was just some random person. I mean, I didn't...
00:14:46Julian, this is Daisy. She's the one who helped me. From today on, no one at Sterling Global lays a
00:14:52hand on Daisy. Julian, are we clear?
00:14:57Crystal clear.
00:15:06Julian, are you seriously humiliating me over a janitor over her? She smells like cheap medicine and cleaning supplies and
00:15:13you're throwing me under the bus for this girl?
00:15:14What the hell did she do to you? What did she say to you that made you forget 20 years
00:15:18of history between us?
00:15:19Humiliate you? No, Victoria. You did that to yourself.
00:15:25You were reckless, rude, and completely out of line. The way you spoke to Lady Montgomery was unacceptable. Do you
00:15:31even understand who she is? The Montgomery family controls half the major charity foundations in New York. They have direct
00:15:36access to political and financial networks most companies spend decades trying to reach.
00:15:40I thought she was just some lost old woman. She looked like she didn't belong here.
00:15:43And that gave you the right to humiliate her? To treat her like she was beneath you? To insult her
00:15:48and my company? If Daisy hadn't stepped in, Lady Montgomery wouldn't be sitting here drinking tea.
00:15:53She would have walked out that door. And Sterling Global would have lost her support permanently.
00:15:57You almost destroyed three years of work in ten minutes.
00:16:00Then why are you protecting her? Why her? We grew up together, Julian. I've been standing next to you for
00:16:04years.
00:16:05Julian, tell me the truth. Have you ever loved me?
00:16:09I told you before, we are friends. Nothing more.
00:16:13Friends? You call this friendship? You'd rather defend a janitor than stand by me? You'd rather pick her than me?
00:16:25Mr. Sterling, please. Stay. You want to know who she is? Fine. I'll tell you.
00:16:31Sir, this isn't necessary. Listen carefully, Victoria. I have no interest in political marriages.
00:16:38I don't need alliances. And I don't need family arrangements. Because I already made my choice.
00:16:49Daisy is not just a janitor. She is...
00:16:56Mr. Sterling, please, don't say things like that.
00:16:59Manager Victoria, he's just thanking me for helping Lady Montgomery earlier. He didn't mean it.
00:17:06Thanking you? Julian, that's not even funny.
00:17:09Victoria, you should be working on the IPO briefing. Go.
00:17:24Take it. A thank you gift. For what you did today.
00:17:28I really can't accept this. It's way too expensive. And janitors aren't allowed to wear jewelry at work.
00:17:34Who said you had to wear it on your hand?
00:17:46Keep it out of sight.
00:17:49It's really pretty. Thank you.
00:17:57My godmother knows who you are now. She likes you. A lot.
00:18:02You helped me today. This is the least I could do.
00:18:05Julian, I left my phone.
00:18:07What was that? What were you two doing?
00:18:10Victoria, knock before you enter my office.
00:18:14Daisy, get back to work.
00:18:15Yes, sir.
00:18:22Well, damn. If it isn't Tucky's very own violin princess, Daisy Miller.
00:18:27Never thought I'd find you here.
00:18:29So what happened? Manhattan chew you up already?
00:18:32Now you're scrubbing floors just to survive?
00:18:34I heard you're working for Lady Montgomery now.
00:18:36You finally got yourself a nice uniform.
00:18:38It's not a uniform. I'm her private security consultant.
00:18:41Big difference.
00:18:41My salary alone could buy your family farm three times over.
00:18:44New York's for people like me, Daisy. Not for some farm girl who still smells like hay.
00:18:48She used to be quite a big deal.
00:18:50A rising star in the national youth music competition.
00:18:52Her future was bright.
00:18:53But then, she tried to win by using improper means to get close to a judge.
00:18:57Got exposed on the spot.
00:18:58Disqualified.
00:18:59Thrown out immediately.
00:19:00After that, her entire hometown was ashamed of-
00:19:02Jackson, you really want to bring that up? Because if we're telling the story, let's tell the whole thing.
00:19:07You bribed the judges. You framed me. And you took my spot.
00:19:10I work for a living. I take care of my father. I earn every dollar I make.
00:19:14I don't lie. I don't cheat. And I don't tear down people from my own hometown just to feel superior.
00:19:19You little janitor. Who the hell do you think you are?
00:19:26Let go! You're hurting me!
00:19:45Damn. A pink diamond this clean? You're a janitor, Daisy. Where the hell did you get something like this?
00:19:49Oh, my God. That's Aurora's tear. Mr. Sterling had Marcus Hustam order it from Harry Quiston last week.
00:19:53It's worth over a million dollars.
00:19:54Over a million? No way.
00:19:55She had that on her?
00:19:56That has to be stolen. No explanation.
00:19:57Give it back! That ring is mine! Mr. Sterling gave it to me!
00:20:00Mr. Sterling gave it to you?
00:20:01Daisy, this is getting embarrassing. First you steal something worth a million dollars.
00:20:05Now you're making up stories, too?
00:20:06That ring was clearly meant for the future Mrs. Sterling, and somehow you think that's you?
00:20:10That's actually funny. People like her always think one expensive thing will change whole life.
00:20:13Steal a diamond, become a princess. Classic delusion.
00:20:14Back off. Stolen property doesn't belong to you.
00:20:16Don't touch it.
00:20:17Hands like yours will ruin it. You even know what this is worth?
00:20:20One scratch and you'd owe more than your whole life can pay back.
00:20:23What is wrong with you? Get your foot off her! You're gonna crush her hand!
00:20:27Good. That's exactly how you deal with thieves and corporate spies.
00:20:31Security, take her and the stolen ring to the office.
00:20:33I want him to see what kind of trash he's protecting.
00:20:43Julian, you need to hear this. Take a look at your employee. She stole the ring you had custom made,
00:20:50Aurora's tear.
00:20:51Jackson caught her in the act.
00:20:55Who did that to her?
00:20:56Mr. Sterling, I handled it. She tried to get rid of the evidence, so I had to step in. Used
00:21:01a little force, nothing serious.
00:21:05Handled it? Who told you you could lay a hand on my employee?
00:21:12Julian! You're defending the wrong person! She stole from you!
00:21:16Let me make this very clear. I gave that ring to Daisy. Personally.
00:21:21Jackson falsely accused a company employee, assaulted her, and damaged private property.
00:21:27Take him to the police. Legal will press charges.
00:21:30I don't want him anywhere near this company again. Get him out.
00:21:37Here. Let me help you.
00:21:40If I gave it to you, you should have kept it on.
00:21:42Look at this. You almost wrecked your hand over a ring.
00:21:47You really don't know how to take care of yourself, do you?
00:21:50I didn't want to cause trouble for you. Now it's ruined.
00:21:53It's just a ring. It can be remade. Your hand can't. Hold still.
00:22:04Mr. Sterling. We found her. The woman who saved you in that Kentucky car accident three years ago.
00:22:12Go to the medical room. Get your hand treated properly. Then come back and wait for me.
00:22:18Start talking.
00:22:20All right. Talk. What'd you find?
00:22:25Mr. Sterling. We located the medical records from the Kentucky accident three years ago.
00:22:29It was a private rural clinic, so the files were buried in the county hospital archives.
00:22:33The doctor confirmed everything.
00:22:35A local girl happened to pass by and used a family-totted emergency method to keep you alive.
00:22:39She stopped the bleeding and stayed with you until the ambulance showed up.
00:22:42The girl's name was...
00:22:43Daisy Miller.
00:22:51Hey. Hey. Stay with me. Come on. Don't do this. Please. Wake up. Please.
00:22:58Daisy.
00:22:58So it really was her. The woman I've been looking for all these years was right there the whole time.
00:23:07Daisy. You have no idea what just happened. The whole company's talking about you right now.
00:23:12The CEO fired that snobby Jackson because of you and he straight up told everyone the ring was his gift
00:23:17to you.
00:23:19Chloe... He was just protecting the company's image.
00:23:24There's someone he's been looking for. For three years.
00:23:28Someone who actually matters to him.
00:23:31I'm just the contract wife who happened to be here.
00:23:34Marcus.
00:23:35Yes, sir.
00:23:37Tomorrow's Daisy's birthday, right?
00:23:39Yes, sir.
00:23:40Good. I want tomorrow night's banquet ready and I want a birthday gift prepared for Daisy.
00:23:43Something unforgeable. Something the whole city will remember.
00:23:46Daisy. This time, I've got you.
00:23:52Happy birthday, Daisy.
00:23:55Wait. You knew it was my birthday?
00:23:59Open it. Go on.
00:24:06Oh, my God. Is this an 18th century fiddle? It's incredible.
00:24:13Thank you. It's really beautiful. But... I don't play anymore.
00:24:19Why?
00:24:25Years ago...
00:24:26Small town girl thinks she can win? You got caught flirting with a judge, didn't you? Pathetic.
00:24:30No. That's not true. I didn't do anything.
00:24:36After that, everyone one back home knew.
00:24:40I was the girl who cheated to win.
00:24:43Three conservatories pulled my admission.
00:24:45Just like that, everything was gone.
00:24:49Daisy.
00:24:51I don't buy it.
00:24:53Not for a second.
00:24:55My grandfather chose you.
00:24:57He knew people.
00:24:58He wouldn't have trusted the wrong person.
00:25:00And I trust what I see.
00:25:01You're not that kind of person.
00:25:04So, yeah.
00:25:05I believe you.
00:25:15Mr. Sterling, we've got a serious problem.
00:25:20This better be worth it.
00:25:22Miss Victoria used the company seal without approval.
00:25:25She signed a performance bed agreement with Thorne Properties for the Hudson River Core Land.
00:25:29The orchestra she hired just lost at Lincoln Center.
00:25:32Thorne is moving to seize the property.
00:25:35She did what?
00:25:36She gambled Sterling's most valuable land over a performance bed.
00:25:41Get the car ready.
00:25:43Now.
00:25:44Let's see if Thorne really thinks they can take what's mine.
00:25:52Victoria.
00:25:53This is your light of Manhattan?
00:25:55I've heard better music on a farm.
00:25:58Thorne, it was just a bad performance.
00:26:00They were off today, that's all.
00:26:02Off today?
00:26:03No.
00:26:04This is just bad.
00:26:06Stop embarrassing Sterling Group.
00:26:08In front of real European masters, this so-called American music is nothing but cheap noise.
00:26:15No soul.
00:26:16No class.
00:26:19Let me introduce you.
00:26:20Alistair.
00:26:21One of the greatest musical prodigies in the world.
00:26:24One string on his violin is worth more than your entire orchestra.
00:26:30Competing with musicians at this level is honestly beneath me.
00:26:34It's not over yet. The wage isn't finished.
00:26:36I'm from the Vance family, a real music family. I'll perform myself.
00:26:39Are you serious right now? The score is 0-3. The match is already over.
00:26:43No! I'm Julian Sterling's fiance. I represent Sterling Group. If I beat Alistair, the Hudson River land stays with us!
00:26:49You want to challenge me, Miss Victoria? Your hands belong on a Chanel handbag, not a violin bow.
00:26:58You heard him. Stop humiliating yourself. The Hudson River property is mine now.
00:27:04Go tell Julian this. He didn't just lose a piece of land. He lost the Sterling family's pride in Manhattan.
00:27:11Manager, we lost! If Mr. Sterling finds out we're finished, he'll throw us out of New York!
00:27:15It's over. Julian is going to kill me.
00:27:27What was that? Did you see that? Did you see that? Did you see that?
00:27:35Julian, thank god you're here. Thorn's been completely unreasonable.
00:27:41Julian, the contract is clear. Your team already lost. Showing up now won't change anything.
00:27:48Thorn, apparently you struggle with reading as much as you do with taste.
00:27:53What's that supposed to mean?
00:27:54The wager agreement is very clear. The match only ends when one side has no one left who can compete.
00:28:01Your orchestra is already finished. Since this manager insists she comes from a prestigious musical family,
00:28:08and insists she can compete, then the match isn't over.
00:28:12Exactly! Thorn, do you even dare face me?
00:28:18Fine. Since Mr. Sterling is so eager to lose in person, I won't stop you.
00:28:24Victoria, go ahead.
00:28:27Watch closely, Daisy. This is what real high-class music looks like.
00:28:32Girls who spend their lives holding a mop don't belong on a stage like this.
00:28:36If I beat Alistin, I'll be the one who saves Sterling Groot. Julian will come back to me. He has
00:28:43to.
00:29:03Now that's the Vance family standard. At this speed, Alistin won't even get a chance to keep up.
00:29:09She's in top form today. That kind of jumping bow technique is insanely clean.
00:29:15No. This isn't right. She's going to lose.
00:29:18Daisy, do you even know what Paganati is? Keep your mouth shut and stop jinxing her.
00:29:22This is hilarious. A Janner judging a professional violinist? You probably can't even read sheet mazel.
00:29:29Why do you think she's going to lose?
00:29:30She's rushing. She's sped up to dominate the tempo, but now her breathing and finger control are out of sync.
00:29:35She's forcing the rhythm. She won't last much longer.
00:29:37That's all you've got? Then let's end this.
00:29:45Don't force it! Manager, push through! Finish it!
00:29:59What was that?
00:30:02Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!
00:30:06Yeah. I figured.
00:30:13bravo absolutely brilliant julian that was easily the most expensive train wreck i've ever seen

00:42:09the team all of it is that so
00:42:14because it feels like you've been avoiding me every email every report you keep things as impersonal as
00:42:28possible
00:42:30sir i read something in the news recently it got me thinking go ahead i'm listening a woman got
00:42:36pregnant by a billionaire by accident no strings attached just a one night thing
00:42:42what do you think a man like that would do would he step up or walk away
00:42:51daisy i've seen that story more times than i can count women trying to trap rich men with a baby
00:42:57hoping for a payout a title a spot in their lives
00:43:04it's predictable pathetic even and if it were real if it wasn't a trap if it was just an accident
00:43:12what would you do be honest listen to me there's no place in my life for accidents
00:43:19no room for mistakes no time for distractions unless it's with the woman i love
00:43:26someone i chose someone i want to build a life with no one is having my child not now not
00:43:32ever and if
00:43:33something like that ever happened if some woman tried to tie me down with that kind of situation
00:43:38i'd clean into it immediately i wouldn't let it go further at all i'd make sure it never became a
00:43:44problem the woman he loves that's the only one who matters to him to him you're just an accident
00:43:52a mistake he'd erase without a second thought but you're not a mistake not to me
00:43:59it's okay baby i won't let him find out i'll protect you no matter what even if it means hiding
00:44:05this from him forever
00:44:11daisy you recognize this don't you

00:44:28she vanished without a word like she was never there tell me daisy why leave in such a hurry afraid
00:44:34of what might happen if you stayed sir i think you've got the wrong person do i because your reaction
00:44:42says otherwise i drank too much that night chloe took me home she can tell you that and the earring
00:44:49sure it looks similar but pieces like that are a dime a dozen in new york
00:44:55it could belong to anyone sounds like you had quite a night sir not even knowing who you woke up
00:45:02next
00:45:02to must be nice

00:45:40had access

00:46:14sir miss daisy didn't look too good when she left just now she seemed tense pale even
00:46:20should we maybe talk to her or clear things up before this gets any more complicated clear up what
00:46:25that i don't even know who the woman was in my bed that night i just mean if you keep
00:46:30investigating
00:46:31this quietly she might get the wrong idea listen to me marcus daisy cannot find out about this
00:46:37investigation not yet but sir secrets like this don't stay hidden forever once i review all the
00:46:43surveillance from that night and track down the woman who set me up who left that earring and vanished
00:46:48i'll tell daisy everything myself i'll explain but until then watch what you say don't mention
00:46:54the investigation to anyone yes sir i won't say a word miss victoria please don't upset yourself
00:47:02mr julian must have been fooled by that country girl daisy she's just a lucky nobody he'll come to his
00:47:07senses sooner or later and regret pushing you away tiffany how long have you been working with me
00:47:14how long have you been by my side almost three years now miss victoria i've always thought you
00:47:19were smarter than daisy sharper more capable and far more refined you deserve better than being stuck
00:47:25as a low-level assistant you're too kind miss victoria i just try to do my best someone like daisy
00:47:30doesn't belong in that manager's office she's a farm girl with no class no connections no idea
00:47:36how the corporate world works that position should have been yours from the start
00:47:43you've earned it mine i could be marketing manager if you can push daisy out of sterling group
00:47:49make her disappear from manhattan make her too embarrassed or too scared to come back
00:47:54i'll use every family connection i have on the board to back you as the next marketing manager
00:48:00you really mean that we're the same kind of people tiffany you and me we understand how this world
00:48:07works we know that to get what you want you have to fight for it i get it i'll make
00:48:15sure she crashes
00:48:15hard on the way down good she's a stain on sterling group and on julian
00:48:23daisy let's see how long you can stay proud
00:48:34daisy you need to see this the company forum is blowing up people are saying the ceo is secretly
00:48:39married and his wife is some mysterious high society woman from europe
00:48:45office gossip you actually buy that nonsense why wouldn't i a guy like julian top of the food
00:48:50chair handsome loaded what kind of woman do you think could actually lock him down come on daisy
00:48:56you've been around him a lot lately way more than anyone else you really haven't noticed anything
00:49:02any little clues a ring a secret call something i focus on work nothing else the ceo's personal
00:49:09life isn't any of my business yeah figures people like him live in a whole different world from us
00:49:14we can only guess well look who it is our so-called violin genius turned marketing manager turned
00:49:24whatever you're trying to be now still making your own coffee even after becoming a manager what's wrong
00:49:31miss being the janitor already miss scrubbing floors and cleaning after everyone else
00:49:37if you spent half this energy on your work instead of running your mouth last quarter's reports wouldn't be
00:49:42such a disaster you might actually be useful around here daisy playing some ordinary songs in a busy
00:49:50station doesn't make you special girls like you ambitious without background or connections trying
00:49:56to get close to the ceo just to move up faster climb into his bed sounds like something you'd know
00:50:01more about than me you've been practically drooling over him since you started working here
00:50:07say that again i dare you victoria's gone fired remember now you're just a stray dog barking in the
00:50:14hallway trying to pick up her scraps or are you planning to follow her out the door next because
00:50:20that's where you're headed if you keep wasting company time on this you're nothing but lucky a lucky
00:50:25nobody who got a handout you really think julian cares about you there's a woman he's been looking for
00:50:31his whole life the one who saved him when he was a kid she's the only person he'll ever love
00:50:37the only
00:50:37one who matters you don't even register to him you're nothing not even close what the hell is going on
00:50:46in
00:50:55here
00:50:55tiffany did sterling group hire you to start fights in the break room to harass your superiors mr julian i
00:51:01was just i was just discussing work with manager daisy it wasn't a fight i swear discussing work
00:51:06is that what you call it marcus yes sir cut her entire bonus for this month no exceptions and if

00:51:42just
00:51:43an earring cinderella loses one earring and i'm the poor guy stuck searching the whole city for her
00:51:47this is ridiculous cinderella so the ceo is looking for a woman and that earring is the only clue looks

00:52:52marcus you're sure about this the woman who got into my room that night was really her the earring
00:52:58matches exactly sir it's identical to the one we found in your suite there's no other reasonable
00:53:01ex-figures a woman like that desperate greedy clawing for power would do anything to climb the
00:53:06corporate ladder to allow to someone like me cheap ambition all into our base that a single night of
00:53:09carelessness would be enough to trap me what a joke pathetic really listen carefully marcus
00:53:13contact the best private hospital in the city make the arrangements no questions asked if she's
00:53:18pregnant if she's stupid enough to try that tired cheap trick i want it handled immediately no delays no
00:53:23excuses sir if she asks for compensation if she demands a settlement then give her the money
00:53:27write whatever check she wants ten thousand a hundred thousand more just get her out of new york
00:53:31get her as far away from me as possible and make sure she never comes back i don't want it
00:53:35kept not
00:53:36for a second understood cheap dirty disposable a gold digging liar so this is what i am to you
00:53:48just someone you can use for one night then erase whenever you want
00:53:58i won't let you touch him i won't let you hurt my baby
00:54:08well well manager daisy you look like you've seen a ghost
00:54:14mr julian just called me into his office asked me a lot of very personal questions looks like that
00:54:20manager title of yours is about to go to someone with a little more value someone who actually
00:54:24matters to the ceo see this this is what the boss has been looking for the clue to the woman
00:54:30from that
00:54:30night daisy you probably wouldn't even get close to jewelry like this in your lifetime you're just a
00:54:34farm girl after all tiffany you really think a fake piece of jewelry is going to win you his heart
00:54:39you have no idea what kind of abyss you're walking into julian isn't someone you can manipulate
00:54:44abyss still better than being a person like you someone who never even got through the door you
00:54:48think he cares about you you're just a temporary toy to him when i become mrs sterling i'll personally
00:54:52send you back to your little kentucky farm to feed pigs you'll never set foot in manhattan again
00:54:58mrs sterling good luck with that hope you keep smiling this confidently when you realize what you've
00:55:03gotten yourself into so julian got the wrong person he thinks tiffany was the one in his room that night
00:55:12the one who left the earring the one he's been searching for so that's the truth because he thinks
00:55:17it's tiffany's baby he can destroy it without even blinking in his world people like us don't matter
00:55:23not even our lives nothing is more important than the sterling name than his pride
