00:10:22You're blushing.
00:10:25I'm William, your project lead.
00:10:31Stella, your turn.
00:10:40The core of this patent is its innovative approach to energy harvesting.
00:11:17How long do you plan to hide?
00:11:18I wasn't hiding.
00:11:22Put this on.
00:11:30I'll return it later.
00:12:00I'll return it later.
00:12:04None of your business

00:12:58You really dare leave me?
00:13:03Stop this
00:13:05Let's fix this
00:13:07It's too late
00:13:23A friend brought back a box of ultra-thin condoms from Raskett
00:13:28Want to give them a try tonight?
00:13:32Alright
00:13:57This is the way it came to Raskett
00:14:09Stella don't be like this

00:14:14Let me freshen up first okay
00:14:15No need I don't mind
00:14:19I want tonight to feel special
00:14:20Something to remember
00:14:22I won't take long
00:14:332, 1
00:14:39Stella something urgent came up at the office
00:14:41I've got to go
00:14:45Don't wait up for me
00:14:45Just get some rest after your shower
00:14:55You swore you loved me
00:14:56But you never even see me
00:14:57You never saw that I was already gone
00:15:11Goodbye Mark
00:15:14Stella
00:15:16You came back
00:15:29What are you burning
00:15:37Weird how come Mark's back so early today
00:15:40What are you burning
00:15:42Nothing important just old junk
00:15:44Why are you back
00:15:45Forgot something
00:15:46I'll just run upstairs and grab it
00:15:54I'm sorry Stella
00:15:55Work has been non-stop
00:15:56I promise I'll make it up to you
00:15:59His phone lit up
00:16:00I saw Haley's name
00:16:02I've got to run
00:16:05How come he's heading out this late at night
00:16:06He's definitely got something to hide
00:16:10The entire box was gone
00:16:12He took them all for her
00:16:15He was just in this room
00:16:16And didn't even notice
00:16:17Our wedding photo is missing
00:16:20Now that Mark's not here
00:16:22I can finally get a proper night's sleep
00:16:27Lainey
00:16:27Is Mr. Briggs not in today?
00:16:29Why the sudden interest in the boss?
00:16:31It's not like that
00:16:32I had an accident
00:16:33My period
00:16:34And he lent me his coat
00:16:35I'm just returning it
00:16:36Relax
00:16:36He's in meetings all day
00:16:38You won't catch him
00:16:38Mr. Briggs
00:16:40The jacket you lent me was custom made
00:16:42So I bought another of equal value
00:16:44If you're not satisfied
00:16:45Feel free to contact me
00:16:47And I wrote down my number
00:16:53My phone rang
00:16:54It was my husband Mark's assistant
00:16:59Calling about the patents
00:17:00I'd let him use for free for years
00:17:05He can't even call me himself
00:17:07He sends an assistant to handle business
00:17:10Tell him not to bother
00:17:11I'm coming to the office
00:17:13Today
00:17:30Mrs. Walsh
00:17:31It's been a while
00:17:33What brings you in?
00:17:34I'm here to sign a contract
00:17:35Is Mark in his office?
00:17:37He
00:17:38Should be
00:17:39Yes
00:17:43Mrs. Walsh
00:17:44You're here
00:17:46Let me show you to the legal department
00:17:48I know the way, Cody
00:17:50Move
00:17:55Please
00:17:56Maybe we should wait
00:17:57He's in a meeting
00:17:59Stop it
00:18:00You love it
00:18:02A meeting?
00:18:03Is that what he calls her?
00:18:05Mrs. Walsh
00:18:06It's not what it looks like
00:18:08It looks like my husband is entertaining a guest
00:18:11I should go say hello
00:18:20Urgent?
00:18:22Urgent to be in someone else's bed
00:18:28I've made my decision about the classified research project
00:18:31Who's the candidate?
00:18:32Who's the candidate?
00:18:32Me
00:18:33I'll come by tomorrow to fill out the forms
00:18:49Miss me, babe?
00:18:52Here
00:18:52A gift
00:18:54You'll have to guess the password to open it
00:18:56You're the only gift I want
00:18:59There's only one like it in the world
00:19:01You like it, don't you?
00:19:06If it's truly one of a kind
00:19:08Then yes
00:19:09I love it
00:19:12Sell this
00:19:13Asap
00:19:14Send the money here
00:19:30Come here
00:19:31Give me a hug
00:19:32Something urgent came up at the institute
00:19:34I've gotta leave now
00:19:39Once work calms down
00:19:41Let's go to Midstream Island
00:19:48Sure
00:19:49When things settle down
00:19:54Mrs. Walsh, are you okay?
00:19:57He pushed you so hard
00:19:58Get your hands off me, Cody
00:19:59Stella, enough with the drama
00:20:01I already told you
00:20:02This isn't what you think
00:20:03Why do you keep attacking Haley?
00:20:04Mrs. Smith, I'm sorry on her behalf
00:20:06She didn't mean it
00:20:06For you, Mark
00:20:07I'll let it slide
00:20:08But she better get lost
00:20:09And stay away from this company
00:20:12Stella, this is a workplace
00:20:14Can we not make a scene?
00:20:16Save the fake politeness
00:20:18I'll leave when I'm done
00:20:19But Mark
00:20:20You are truly disgusting
00:20:28I'm done selling my patent
00:20:29The contract has expired
00:20:31And our partnership is over
00:20:33Mrs. Walsh, is there a problem?
00:20:35This patent is a cornerstone of our business
00:20:37No issues
00:20:39I've simply found a new buyer
00:20:43Stella, if you're upset
00:20:45Take it out on me
00:20:45Hit me, yell at me
00:20:46Whatever you want
00:20:47But don't mess around with the patent
00:20:49Let's talk about this at home
00:20:50You still think I'm just being emotional?
00:20:52That you can coax me back in line?
00:20:53I'm not joking
00:20:54The deal is off
00:20:55If your company continues using my patent
00:20:57My lawyer will file for compensation
00:21:00Mr. Walsh, what's going on?
00:21:02If she pulls the patent, we're in trouble
00:21:03Multiple projects will fail
00:21:04I'll handle it
00:21:05Stella!
00:21:08Stella!
00:21:11Stella!
00:21:14Stella!
00:21:30William, what are you doing in my car?
00:21:33Ms. Russell, if you needed a ride, you could have asked
00:21:36Climbing into my car like this is a bit bold
00:21:39I'm so sorry, I didn't realize this was your car
00:21:42My mistake, I'll get out
00:21:43Wait
00:21:44Yes, Mr. Briggs?
00:21:45I saw the note in the jacket you returned
00:21:48I'd rather you focus on your responsibilities
00:21:50Show some professionalism
00:22:01Stella!
00:22:02Oh my god, I'm so sorry
00:22:03Let me see
00:22:04Wait
00:22:05This is already swollen
00:22:07This wasn't me
00:22:08What happened?
00:22:10It's okay, Lainey
00:22:10It's not your fault
00:22:11I'll be fine
00:22:12Don't lie to me
00:22:15You went to see Mark today
00:22:16Did that scum ad lay a hand on you?
00:22:23Unbelievable!
00:22:25You're his wife!
00:22:26How dare he hit you over some other woman!
00:22:30Maybe he was always this man
00:22:32And I was just too blind to see it
00:22:40Speak of the devil
00:22:41It's Mark
00:22:51How dare you keep calling her?
00:22:52You cheat on her?
00:22:53You hit her and now you think she wants to hear your voice?
00:22:56I'm her real friend
00:22:57When you hurt her, it is my business
00:23:09She's my friend, Mark
00:23:10The least you can do is show her some respect
00:23:13Hearing your voice disgusts me
00:23:15I don't, Estella
00:23:16Let me just rex
00:23:18You honestly make me sick
00:23:20You want both women?
00:23:21Do you hear how pathetic that sounds?
00:23:23If your coworks and boss see me
00:23:26That won't be good for you
00:23:28So come home
00:23:32Fine
00:23:33I'll go back after I finish up here
00:23:37What if he hits you again?
00:23:39Let me come with you
00:23:40He won't
00:23:42Trust me
00:23:43He wouldn't dare
00:23:47I had the chef make all your favorites
00:23:49Come on, let's eat
00:24:00Stella, about earlier
00:24:01Haley's family has deep ties to our company
00:24:03I can't afford to upset them
00:24:04I went too far with you
00:24:05Right
00:24:07That's why I'm giving you full admin access to the security system
00:24:12This company is yours too
00:24:13You're half the boss here
00:24:15I promise
00:24:16This won't happen again
00:24:17Today was the last time
00:24:19Just trust me
00:24:22Half the boss, huh?
00:24:24Is that your way of saying you'll keep using my patent without paying a cent?
00:24:30Stell, don't be upset
00:24:32Haley is just a friend
00:24:34Her parents are important business partners, that's all
00:24:40A friend?
00:24:41Would you kiss a friend like that?
00:24:43Hold her in your arms in your office?
00:24:46Let's not talk about that
00:24:48Stella, let's have a baby
00:24:50A baby?
00:24:52Yes
00:24:52Didn't you always want one?
00:24:54If we have a child, you'll always be my wife
00:24:57You won't feel so insecure
00:25:00Insecure?
00:25:02You think a child is a bargaining chip?
00:25:04A prize for accepting your humiliation?
00:25:09Is the title Mrs. Walsh supposed to make me forget you were with another woman?
00:25:19I have a headache
00:25:20Maybe some other time
00:25:22Your head!
00:25:23The injury!
00:25:24I'm so sorry, I should have paid more attention
00:25:26Let me get the first aid kits
00:25:32Lainey already took care of it
00:25:34No need for your concern now
00:25:39I'll sleep in the study
00:25:50Stella!
00:25:51They've made adjustments to the team for the closed project
00:25:56What do you mean?
00:25:57I thought the list was final
00:25:59It was
00:26:01But William is on the project now
00:26:04William
00:26:06And he's personally reviewing every single person on the team
00:26:10That means our spots aren't safe anymore
00:26:15William isn't just a brilliant researcher, Stella
00:26:17The Briggs family owns half of Brissette
00:26:19He's just enjoying his freedom before taking over their empire
00:26:23His family's wealth has nothing to do with my goals
00:26:26I just need to get on his team
00:26:28Imagine if you actually won him over
00:26:30Wouldn't that drive your pathetic husband crazy?
00:26:33A thriving career and a man way better than Mark
00:26:36It's a win-win
00:26:37Lainey, my mind is on research
00:26:39Men in revenge have no place in my world right now
00:26:41But I do need to speak with him
00:26:43Can you help me get a moment alone with Mr. Briggs?
00:26:47A private meeting?
00:26:49Of course!
00:26:50Of course!
00:26:51Leave it to me!
00:26:57You're home!
00:26:58Are you hungry?
00:26:59I can ask the kitchen to make something
00:27:03I'm not hungry
00:27:04Eat by yourself
00:27:10Stella, not eating will harm your health
00:27:12Please, have at least a little
00:27:15Looking at you ruins my appetite
00:27:17Didn't you say you wanted to visit Hoxavi?
00:27:19I'll be free next month
00:27:20Let's go together
00:27:23You were always too busy for that trip before
00:27:26What changed?
00:27:28Oh, right
00:27:30The patent
00:27:31If you're so desperate for a vacation
00:27:34Why don't you take Haley instead?
00:27:39Stella, don't talk to me like that
00:27:41I hate it!
00:27:42I apologized, didn't I?
00:27:44Then how am I supposed to talk to you?
00:27:46Should I sit down and have a pleasant little
00:27:48Heart-to-heart about your affair?
00:27:51Yes
00:27:52We should definitely talk
00:27:58Fine
00:28:00If you want to talk, we'll talk
00:28:03I'm curious what else you think you can get from me
00:28:20Alright, what is it you wanted to say?
00:28:22Stella, there's nothing going on with Haley
00:28:25This is business
00:28:26The Smith family collaboration will take our company to the next level
00:28:30Her father suggested she get experience with us
00:28:33With her background in international law
00:28:35The legal department is a perfect fit
00:28:38And what does her job have to do with me?
00:28:43This is why I brought it up
00:28:44If your patent stays with us
00:28:47It'll be the first project Haley takes on
00:28:49She'll be pleased
00:28:50Her family will be impressed
00:28:52And it helps our company
00:28:54You won't turn me down, will you?
00:28:55It's just a renewal
00:28:59So this whole talk
00:29:00Is about using my patent to make Haley happy?
00:29:04I'm being honest
00:29:04A strong company benefits us both
00:29:07We're married, Stella
00:29:09Isn't it normal for a couple to support each other?
00:29:12Normal?
00:29:13You have the nerve to call this normal?
00:29:18This is my patent
00:29:20I've changed my mind
00:29:22I'm not selling
00:29:23And no one
00:29:24Not even you
00:29:26Have the right to force me
00:29:30Enough

00:39:29fine have it your way
00:39:38stella open the door
00:39:58Good morning, Miss Russell. I'm Luca, Mr. Briggs' assistant.
00:40:02We have an opening to assist Mr. Briggs with document handling, and you're perfect for it.
00:40:06No, thanks, but this position doesn't suit me. I'd rather join a group with my peers.
00:40:12Miss Russell, this is a great opportunity.
00:40:19Is everything settled? Mr. Briggs, Miss Russell turned down the offer. Smart girl.
00:40:31Stella, we just finished today's data. Can you drop it off with Mr. Briggs?
00:40:36Okay.
00:40:41William just set off for the underground garage. It's still possible to catch up.
00:41:05Are you courting death?
00:41:07Mr. Briggs, these files need your immediate review.
00:41:10Get in. We'll go over them as we drive.
00:41:19Stella is my wife. Who is this man? How dare she smile at him like that?
00:41:28You're a lot more tempting now than when you played innocent yesterday.
00:41:32Mr. Briggs, you can just leave the documents here. I won't follow you. Could you drop me off here?
00:41:46That night, I returned to our empty house and started throwing out every memory of Mark.
00:41:50What a joke. The cups we made on vacation. I remember wishing on a shooting star that we would be
00:41:55happy together forever.
00:41:57What a joke. People change. I see that now.
00:42:09Stella, I waited for you at the Institute for Ages. Did you leave by another exit?
00:42:14I got a lift home with a colleague.
00:42:20Now I have a free week. What do you say we try for a baby?
00:42:25Mark, I've already told you. I don't want a baby right now.
00:42:31But after all these years, you always talked about wanting one before.
00:42:37Before was a long time ago.
00:42:41Tell me, Mark. How are those condoms from Rassgate working out for you?
00:42:46I bet Haley didn't disappoint.
00:42:49You... you knew?
00:42:52All this time?
00:42:53I've always known.
00:42:56Stella, wait! Just let me explain!
00:43:01Stella! Open this door! We need to talk about this!
00:43:08Fine. I'll make you dinner.
00:43:10You always soften up when I cook for you.
00:43:19Wait a minute. Where's her coffee maker?
00:43:22It's always right here on the counter.
00:43:24Stella! What happened to the capsule coffee maker from the kitchen? Where is it?
00:43:36Stella, open up! Where is the coffee machine?
00:43:40It stopped working. I brought it out for repairs.
00:43:43Oh. Well, hey, Stella. I really messed up. Please, give me another chance.
00:43:51I made your favorite meal. Come downstairs and eat with me?
00:43:56I'm not hungry. I think I'll skip it.
00:44:04Okay. What about that coat you got me? I checked the closet. It wasn't there.
00:44:11I got the wrong size. I sent it back.
00:44:14Sent it back? Why not just swap it for another one?
00:44:18Lately, your whole look has shifted.
00:44:21I wasn't sure what you'd actually wear.
00:44:23Anyway, it's not like you're short on clothes.
00:44:26You've got tons already.
00:44:28But you picked that coat for me, Stella.
00:44:30Whatever you choose, I'll always like it.
00:44:34I'm exhausted.
00:44:36I'm turning in for the night.
00:44:53Keep watch on her.
00:44:54I want updates on everything she does.
00:45:05I want to marry Stella and cherish her forever.
00:45:08Only time can prove a promise like that, Mark.
00:45:10We'll be old and worn by then.
00:45:12A lifetime is exactly what I plan to give you.
00:45:15I'll spend every bit of it keeping that promise.
00:45:41Mark, how long are you going to stare at that screen?
00:45:43Look at me for once.
00:45:47Stella's being impossible.
00:45:49Why won't she just sign?
00:45:51Does she really think we're powerless?
00:45:53If she walks away, we'll find someone else.
00:45:55You have no idea what you're talking about.
00:45:58The company is in chaos because of you.
00:46:00Me?
00:46:01I'm just trying to help.
00:46:02Why are Nose Camp not you?
00:46:04She's the one causing problems.
00:46:07Just be quiet for a moment.
00:46:20What is it?
00:46:21Why did you freeze?
00:46:24Leave.
00:46:27What?
00:46:28But we were just discussing the contract.
00:46:30I said...
00:46:33Leave.
00:46:35Now.
00:46:41I'm staying.
00:46:43Unless there's something you're hiding from me, Mark.
00:46:48Why would she be there now?
00:46:50Something isn't right.
00:46:57Legal department.
00:46:59Revite the contracts on my desk immediately.
00:47:02Mark, wait!
00:47:03Where are you going?
00:47:04What's wrong with the contracts?
00:47:06Did I mess something up?
00:47:13Hold on!
00:47:14I spent hours on those.
00:47:16Why are you taking them back?
00:47:17You're nothing but a useless leech.
00:47:22You work in legal, don't you?
00:47:24You just sit there like a statue while I do all the real work.
00:47:28What does this company even pay you for?
00:47:30Decoration?
00:47:32Effective immediately.
00:47:32Forget about your year-end bonus.
00:47:38Mrs. Smith, have you actually looked at the contracts you're so proud of?
00:47:43They don't even follow basic company formatting.
00:47:45It's laughable.
00:47:46A child with half a brain could have done better.
00:47:48You!
00:47:49Who do you think you are talking to me like that?
00:47:52I'll mark fire you on the spot!
00:47:55Too late.
00:47:56My resignation's already been submitted.
00:47:58You missed your chance to kick me out.
00:48:00And since we're being honest, I can't stomach people who climb with favors and destroy families
00:48:05in the process.
00:48:06You tick both boxes.
00:48:09Also, newsflash, waving your foreign passport around doesn't make you special.
00:48:13Trash from abroad is still trash.
00:48:18You shameless witch!
00:48:20Who gave you the right to talk to me like that?
00:48:22Try acting like you went to college instead of hurling insults and making a spectacle of
00:48:25yourself.
00:48:26Anyway, I'm not on the payroll anymore.
00:48:28Cut my year-end bonus if it makes you happy.
00:48:30I'm done here.
00:48:32Did you see that?
00:48:34Who knew Alelica had that kind of nerve?
00:48:36She was pushed too far.
00:48:37Some people just dig their own graves.
00:48:39You clueless idiots!
00:48:41Just wait until Mark gets back.
00:48:43I'll make sure every single one of you is out on the street!
00:48:49Stella, you can't keep running yourself into the ground like this.
00:48:52What if you faint?
00:48:54I appreciate it, Lainey.
00:48:56Trust me, I know my limits.
00:48:58Hey!
00:48:59The list just came out!
00:49:00Come on, let's take a look!
00:49:01You could use a breaker.
00:49:08No, I must have skimmed past it.
00:49:11Let me look again, from the top.
00:49:18Lainey?
00:49:20It's not there.
00:49:21My name simply isn't there.
00:49:23What?
00:49:24That's impossible!
00:49:27I'm looking right at it!
00:49:30How can you not be on the list?
00:49:37Hey, it's alright.
00:49:39Missing out on this one isn't the end of the world.
00:49:42I'm fine, really.
00:49:43You sure?
00:49:44You don't look fine.
00:49:45Honestly, I'm okay.
00:49:47Don't fuss over me.
00:49:48Go take care of your own work.
00:49:55If I can't join the project, so be it.
00:49:58The marriage is already finished.
00:50:00It's time to disappear for a while.
00:50:03Miss Russell, try not to let the list get to you.
00:50:06Luca, you really have no talent for comforting people, you know that?
00:50:10Mr. Briggs is hosting a dinner at the Voyage Hotel tonight.
00:50:13If you're not busy, maybe you should come.
00:50:15It might give him a chance to reconsider.
00:50:17You helped him with his plans.
00:50:19If he made up his mind to exclude me, what's the point in showing up to beg?
00:50:23That won't be necessary.
00:50:24Mr. Briggs must have his reasons.
00:50:26I'm sure he's found someone better suited for the team.
00:50:33Mark will discover the divorce agreement sooner or later.
00:50:36He'll move heaven and earth to hunt me down.
00:50:38But his attention is tangled up with Haley now.
00:50:41He won't waste much effort tracking me if I vanish completely from his radar.
00:50:45The farther I run, the safety I'll be.
00:50:52Stella, you're taking leave?
00:50:54Is this because you weren't on the project list?
00:50:56I just need a break, Lainey.
00:50:58You've seen how hard I've been working.
00:51:00You deserve it.
00:51:01You're always the first to arrive and the last to leave.
00:51:04Rest well.
00:51:08Mr. Briggs, that's Ms. Russell.
00:51:10She took extended leave today.
00:51:11She doesn't look happy.
00:51:12Should we tell her the truth about the team selection?
00:51:16She saw us.
00:51:19Sir, she's walking away.
00:51:21Fast.
00:51:21She's running.
00:51:22It's fine.
00:51:23She's not the delicate type.
00:51:24Drive.
00:51:26Pick up the phone, Stella!
00:51:27Where are you?
00:51:32Blocked.
00:51:33She actually blocked my number.
00:51:38If she's not coming home, where is she going?
00:51:47There she is.
00:51:48Finally.
00:51:49Wait a minute.
00:51:54It's the same one she got into before.
00:52:15Stella, why haven't you come home these past few days?
00:52:26I've just had a lot going on.
00:52:28So being busy means you have to clear out all your things?
00:52:31Half the house is empty, Stella, and everything missing belongs to you.
00:52:35You even blocked my number.
00:52:37And the wedding photo, it's gone.
00:52:39Where did you put everything, Stella?
00:52:41So he finally noticed.
00:52:43I ran into a little financial trouble, so I pawned my things.
00:52:47Once I've sorted things out, I'll get them back.
00:52:49If you needed money, why didn't you just tell me?
00:52:51There was no reason to pawn your things.
00:52:54Take these.
00:52:54Use them for whatever you want.
00:52:58That's not necessary.
00:52:59I've already sorted the money myself.
00:53:01You can keep those cards.
00:53:02Stella, what are you hiding from me?
00:53:04We're still husband and wife.
00:53:06No matter what's going on, good or bad, you can tell me.
00:53:09I'll handle it with you.
00:53:10You don't have to shoulder everything alone.
00:53:16There's nothing to tell.
00:53:18Work's been busy at the Institute, and I have a business trip coming up.
00:53:21I'll be out of town for a while.
00:53:24Wait!
00:53:33Go to the airport.
00:53:40So he's tailing me.
00:54:10Ma'am, if you help me out,
00:54:11I'll give you $500.
00:54:13When you head back in, just dump the water from your bucket onto the man waiting outside the restroom.
00:54:19He's been following me since I left home.
00:54:20I'm desperate.
00:54:21Please, if you can pull this off, the money's yours.
00:54:24Please, don't let him know I'm gone.
00:54:26And thank you, really.
00:54:37What the hell are you doing?
00:54:39Oh my goodness, sir, I'm so sorry.
00:54:41I didn't see you standing there.
00:54:42I thought you were just part of the plumbing.
00:54:45Oh gosh, let me get that for you.
00:54:49Oh my gosh.
00:54:55I'm sorry, I'm sorry.
00:54:57I'm really sorry.
00:54:59Enough!
00:54:59Just go!
00:55:00Don't bother me!
00:55:07Stella, do you really think this will get rid of me?
00:55:17Hello, Stella.
00:55:18How much longer are you going to keep pestering Mark?
00:55:21He's finished with you.
00:55:22Why don't you have a little dignity and let go?
00:55:24Maybe you need a reminder, Haley.
00:55:26Mark and I are still married.
00:55:28The law is on my side.
00:55:29So tell me,
00:55:30who gave you permission to call me and hurl accusation?
00:55:33I'm not here to fight with you!
00:55:36Why don't you come over so we can talk face to face?
00:55:39It's simple.
00:55:41The one who isn't loved is always the third wheel.
00:55:44Take my advice and know your place.
00:55:47Is this really what the Smith family taught you?
00:55:50To meddle in marriages and play the mistress?
00:55:52It's almost admirable how you can spout this nonsense
00:55:55without a single scrap of dignity.
00:55:58You'd better watch your mouth!
00:55:59I've got better things to do than play along with your bullshit.
00:56:02Maybe try focusing on the Walsh group's plummeting profits
00:56:05instead of pestering me.
00:56:09Stella.
00:56:10How could you speak to Haley like that?
00:56:13So you're her backup.
00:56:14Of course.
00:56:15Siding with anyone you think can benefit your precious son.
00:56:17You better show up right now.
00:56:18Let me make this clear.
00:56:19Clinging to my son will get you nowhere.
00:56:21You are nothing but a burden to our family.
00:56:23Come to the Voyage Hotel immediately.
00:56:24If not, you can face the consequences.
00:56:31Fine.
00:56:31I'm on my way.
00:56:47So, you finally bothered to show up.
00:56:50I want you to divorce my son right now.
00:56:53And why is that?
00:56:55What have you ever done for the Walsh family?
00:56:57You can't even give us a child.
00:56:59Useless.
00:57:00There's no place for a barren hen like you.
00:57:02Her family is nothing.
00:57:04Raised without manners.
00:57:07You shouldn't lower yourself, Jaiselyn.
00:57:09Get those divorce papers ready by Monday!
00:57:12I refuse to tolerate you for one more day!
00:57:15Fine.
00:57:16I'll divorce him.
00:57:19What do you want out of this, Stella?
00:57:21Stella, I'm not making any demands.
00:57:23Divorce is fine by me.
00:57:30But, Jaiselyn, I expect you to pay back every cent I spent on your beauty appointments and imported supplements.
00:57:37The health supplements you're taking every month, why not ask Mark who's really footing the bill?
00:57:41And everyone at the casino knows exactly how many toes you've stepped on.
00:57:45Stella, don't you dare get greedy with me.
00:57:47Why should I pay you back a cent?
00:57:49Those supplements?
00:57:49My son paid for them.
00:57:51As for the salon visits, I cover those with my own membership.
00:57:54Stella, honestly, isn't this a little beneath you?
00:57:56Or could it be you're not actually ready for this divorce?
00:57:58And you're just making excuses to keep Jaiselyn on a leash?
00:58:02I'm just laying out the truth here.
00:58:04That membership card you're so fond of?
00:58:05My friend owns the salon.
00:58:07I got you a 90% discount.
00:58:09Please, Mrs. Walsh, don't worry.
00:58:10From now on, I'll make sure you have everything you need.
00:58:12Your standard of living drop, I swear.
00:58:14Supplements, salon treatments, I have plenty of connections.
00:58:16I'll handle it all.
00:58:17These are just the tip of the iceberg.
00:58:19Fine.
00:58:19If you claim all that's gone, then so be it.
00:58:21But I want you to divorce my son right now!
00:58:24All right.
00:58:25But a divorce requires both parties to show up.
00:58:28If you can get Mark here, I won't stand in your way.
00:58:32If you're so determined, maybe spend your energy convincing him instead of wasting mine.
00:58:41She really has no idea what's coming.
00:58:44We gave her the chance to bow out gracefully, and she turned it down.
00:58:47She'll see.
00:58:48Once her name's dragged through the mud, Mark won't even look her way.
00:58:52And by then, leaving won't be her decision anymore.
00:58:54Jaiselyn, you're the best.
00:58:56I swear, I'll be the most loyal daughter-in-law you've ever had.
00:59:27Mr. Briggs.
00:59:28I really believe Miss Russell is the ideal choice for the project. She's head and shoulders above the others
00:59:34Also earlier today when she saw our car she looked hesitant almost anxious and left right after
00:59:39It felt like she didn't want to be misunderstood. Honestly, sir
00:59:43I don't believe she's the kind of woman you perceive her to be. She's always been composed and respectful in
00:59:47everything she does
00:59:49My attention is needed elsewhere inform me of our guests arrival
00:59:56It looked like Stella
01:00:00No, it couldn't have been her
01:00:28Please I'll give you anything you want. Just let me go
01:00:36Quit fighting. We're not here to harm you. We just need a few dirty pictures
01:00:41Pictures? What kind of pictures?
01:00:51Who asked you to do this? I have money. Whatever they paid you I'll match it and add more
01:00:55Don't bother. This will be over soon if you stop fighting. You're committing a crime sooner or later. You'll be
01:01:00arrested
01:01:00I will report everything and none of you will walk away clean or you take my money now walk out
01:01:04that door and
01:01:05I never mention I never mention this again think it over don't waste your energy
01:01:09Haley
01:01:12There's no way out since we're gonna stage something like this it better look real
01:01:17Stage what?
01:01:19People care about believability now. These are your props use them however you want and don't bother with condoms
01:01:34Haley this is illegal you think foreign citizenship makes you untouchable?
01:01:41You bunch of wimps I'll handle it
01:01:46And you Stella you really think you're on Mark's level. He's the one who told me to do this. He
01:01:52wants you punished
01:02:04There the contract is binding your patent rights now belong to my family for free. She's all yours boys. Enjoy
01:02:12Damn you smell good. So soft, but you look real pretty crying. Which toy should we use first?
01:02:25What the hell get these bastards out of here
01:02:37Are you alright
01:02:42The ropes are off you're safe now
01:02:47I'm all right. Thanks. Come on. Let's get you out of here
01:02:59Careful
01:03:08Mr. Briggs
01:03:09We've identified those people but say it
01:03:13She deserves the truth
01:03:15Some of them carry infectious diseases
01:03:17If they'd laid a hand on mrs. Russell the fallout would have been catastrophic
01:03:22Haley she meant to destroy me
01:03:24Mr. Briggs
01:03:25Thank you for everything you've done today, but from here on out. I'll handle it myself. This isn't your battle
01:03:39A clean divorce was all I wanted
01:03:41But their cruelty has gone too far
01:03:43If that's how they want to play then I'm finished being merciful
01:03:58Where do you think you're going?
01:04:00Your IV's still running
01:04:21Stella? What on earth happened to you?
01:04:25I'm all right, Lainey
01:04:28You are not all right
01:04:30Oh dear, what happened?
01:04:31Don't be scared. I'm right here. Tell me who did this to you
01:04:40It was Mark and Haley
01:04:44Mark? Did he lay a hand on you? Has he completely lost his mind?
01:04:48No, he didn't touch me. Can we talk inside?
01:04:54Haley did that to you? She ought to be behind bars
01:04:58She forced me to imprint my fingerprint on the document when I had no strength left
01:05:02They didn't partner with me, Lainey
01:05:04They stole the patent
01:05:07Don't stress. I'll help you get it back
01:05:10I found another buyer for you. I've been putting together the contract
01:05:13But Haley already took the contract with my fingerprint
01:05:17The buyer I found is trustworthy
01:05:19Once you sign his contract, he'll take care of everything
01:05:22What Haley did was illegal
01:05:26Thank you
01:05:28I can't believe Mark
01:05:30All those years he acted like the perfect partner
01:05:33It was a fa-facade
01:05:34It makes me sick. How could he be so cruel?
01:05:38Now that everything had blown up
01:05:40I had no intention of that
01:05:42I had no intention of playing nice anymore
01:05:44Lainey, I need a little help
01:05:47Name it. As long as it's something I can do, I'm on your side
01:05:55Could you help me with this?
01:06:10She's cutting me off
01:06:11Proving a point
01:06:14Haley, where are you?
01:06:15At the spa. Why? Miss me already?
01:06:17There's a charity gala tomorrow night, come with me
01:06:19With you? To a public event?
01:06:21Of course! This is perfect
01:06:23Tomorrow everyone will see the photos of Stella's humiliation
01:06:25Mark will have no choice but to drop her for good
01:06:28But Mark, I don't have a dress
01:06:31I'll pick you up early, we'll go shopping
01:06:33You're the best! Love you!
01:06:35This gala is important
01:06:36A new partner will be there
01:06:37Haley's family name might just give me the edge I need
01:06:40Stella wants to fight dirty?
01:06:42I can play that game too
01:06:44Mark, what about this one?
01:06:46Yeah, looks good
01:06:47You haven't even looked, look at me properly
01:06:49It suits you, the color works
01:06:51I'll take it!
01:06:53Stella never needed all this, a t-shirt, a ponytail
01:06:5510 minutes and she was ready, not a whole day
01:07:03Who's that with Mr. Walsh? The Smith girl?
01:07:05They look awfully close
01:07:07Is it an affair?
01:07:08No way! Did Mr. Walsh already divorce his wife?
01:07:14Divorce
01:07:18Divorce
01:07:26Let them whisper, Mark
01:07:27Tonight they see you with me, not her
01:07:30Keep your chin up and ignore them
01:07:31We need to find Mr. Williams
01:07:33Today is the day Stella finally loses everything
01:07:39Mr. Williams, it's been too long
01:07:41Mr. Walsh, a pleasure
01:07:44And you are?
01:07:45Haley
01:07:47I'm a great admirer of your work, sir
01:07:49I see
01:07:52Williams, there you are, we need to talk
01:07:55Mark, forget him, it's time
01:08:01Nothing, there's nothing here
01:08:03What are you talking about? Put the phone away
01:08:05Where is Jaiselyn? She had all day, did she get cold feet?
01:08:08Come here, now
01:08:10Ladies, I must be going, my son and daughter-in-law need me
01:08:13Daughter-in-law, since when?
01:08:17A message from Haley
01:08:19She must have the photos already
01:08:21She wants me there for the big reveal
01:08:23Oh, this is going to be perfect
01:08:32Jaiselyn! Jaiselyn! Jaiselyn!
01:08:36Jaiselyn!
01:08:37You look gorgeous
01:08:38Did Mark pick it?
01:08:41He did, he said the color suits me
01:08:45Darling, why did you call me here?
01:08:47My mother is arriving soon to sign a major deal with Mark
01:08:50But with my current status, things are complicated
01:08:55Stella signed away the patent
01:08:57She has nothing left to bargain with
01:08:59She's powerless now
01:09:02Don't worry, dear
01:09:03I understand perfectly
01:09:05I will handle it
01:09:14Mom, what the hell are you doing here?
01:09:19Why shouldn't I be here, Mark?
01:09:22To tell everyone the truth about your pathetic wife?
01:09:25Don't you dare
01:09:26Stella is not worthy of you
01:09:28She's been messing around with other men
01:09:32Behind your back!
01:09:37A shameless woman
01:09:39Dragging the Walsh name through the mud
01:09:47You need to divorce her
01:09:49Divorce her right now before she ruins us all
01:09:52That's enough!
01:09:58What nonsense are you spouting in front of everyone?
01:10:04Look at you, Mark
01:10:06Still defending that woman?
01:10:08She's been cheating on you
01:10:09Haley is the one who deserves you
01:10:12Divorce Stella already!
01:10:14Don't worry, Jaiselyn
01:10:16I'll take good care of Mark
01:10:18Cheating?
01:10:19What are you talking about?
01:10:20Stella would never
01:10:23Mom, what are you really doing here?
01:10:25I told you, I've seen the disgusting photos
01:10:28And you're still defending her?
01:10:31Here, Stella signed this contract herself
01:10:34She's guilty, Mark
01:10:36She's trying to clean up her mess quietly
01:10:38She signed this?
01:10:40Why?
01:10:41Was my mother right?
01:10:42Did she betray me with William?
01:10:49Stella?
01:10:57It can't be...
01:10:59After everything we did, how is she standing there?
01:11:02She wouldn't dare show her face
01:11:05Not tonight, not after those photos
01:11:17Mark
01:11:17Mark, don't let her intimidate you
01:11:19My family is reasonable
01:11:21They won't judge you for leaving her
01:11:27Mr. Walsh
01:11:28Mr. Walsh, our family usually wouldn't consider a divorced man
01:11:30But since Haley has chosen you, we won't stand in your way
01:11:32Just make sure you resolve things with your ex-wife properly
01:11:36Everyone knows the problems in your marriage weren't your fault
01:11:40Stella, is it?
01:11:41After everything you've done, you'd be wise to sign the divorce papers and spare yourself the shame
01:11:46Tell me, Mark
01:11:48What was my crime in this marriage?
01:11:50What did I do to deserve this treatment from you?
01:11:52Stella, this isn't...
01:11:55You have the nerve to ask what you did wrong?
01:11:57You were sleeping around while married, openly shameless
01:12:00I used to think you refused to divorce because you had real feelings for Mark
01:12:03But how could you take such vulgar pictures with other men?
01:12:05The props, the outfits, I never expected you to be like that
01:12:08I won't let Mark continue to be with someone like you
01:12:11Seriously, Stella?
01:12:13Are you really that reckless?
01:12:14That's disgusting
01:12:15Honestly, someone from outside our circle wouldn't understand basic decency
01:12:19No wonder Mark would rather be with the Smith girl after what she pulled
01:12:22Who could tolerate their wife being with other men?
01:12:29You're accusing me of sleeping around, Haley
01:12:31Do you have proof?
01:12:33Everyone is talking about it
01:12:35No, you are talking about it
01:12:37And without proof, it's slander
01:12:39I can take you to court
01:12:41You speak with such detail
01:12:43About the toys, the outfits
01:12:46Were you hiding in the room?
01:12:48Or did you set it all up?
01:12:51Well, someone saw it and told me
01:12:55The truth always comes out, Stella
01:12:57Alright then
01:12:58If you're so confident, show us the evidence
01:13:01What toys, which men, let's see it
01:13:05Jaiselyn!
01:13:05Haley, show them the proof already
01:13:07Didn't you say you saw everything yourself?
01:13:10What?
01:13:10I thought you had the photos
01:13:12What's wrong? Can't find your proof now?
01:13:15Want me to give you a hand?
01:13:17Maybe I should start laying out the details of your little affair with Mark
01:13:22Should I tell everyone what you two have been doing behind closed doors?
01:13:29Stella, wait!
01:13:32Please, let me explain
01:13:39Stella, I trust you
01:13:41Please, just hear me out
01:13:44Don't lay a hander on me
01:13:45I feel sick just looking at you
01:13:54Is this your idea of love, Mark?
01:13:56Loving two women at once?
01:13:58It's pathetic
01:14:01Ah!
01:14:08Stella, what happened to you?
01:14:10What happened?
01:14:12Isn't it obvious?
01:14:14Those are the marks from her night with those men
01:14:18Her night with them?
01:14:20You only signed the contract because you were scared we'd expose you
01:14:25You were begging them not to stop
01:14:28You kept saying how much you liked it
01:14:32And now you want to act like you're the victim?
01:14:35You know what you did is a crime, right?
01:14:37You could go to prison for this
01:14:42Stella?
01:14:45What is she talking about?
01:14:47Were you with other men?
01:14:50Mrs. Russell, how dare you spout such lies about my daughter?
01:14:54That accusation is completely out of line
01:14:56Mr. Walsh, I only agreed to work with you because of Haley
01:15:00After this slander, I see no reason to continue
01:15:03Come, Haley
01:15:03Mother, wait, I don't want to go
01:15:06Hold on
01:15:08Haley, what exactly did you do to Stella?
01:15:10Mark, I haven't done anything, don't you believe me?
01:15:12Hasn't Stella been ignoring you lately?
01:15:14Staying away from home?
01:15:16If she's so innocent, then why hasn't she come back to you?
01:15:19Before you say a word, Mark
01:15:31Do whatever you want
01:15:33If anything goes wrong, I'll handle it
01:15:37Stella, Mark told me to handle this
01:15:41You refused to sign the contract nicely
01:15:44So this is your punishment
01:15:50What?
01:15:51What now, Haley?
01:15:52Got anything to say?
01:15:54Or are you going to tell everyone that the recording is fake?
01:15:57What? You actually sent people to rape Stella?
01:16:01Haley, our plan was just to take some fake photos
01:16:04That was it! I never agreed to something criminal!
01:16:07You're more ruthless than I ever imagined!
01:16:26Mark, please! It's not what it looks like! Nobody believes me!
01:16:30I believe my own ears, Haley
01:16:32How could you?
01:16:34It was your mother! Jaiselyn told me to do it!
01:16:37What?! You dare lie about me?!
01:16:39It's the truth! You said Stella couldn't have kids!
01:16:41That she wasn't good enough for Mark!
01:16:44You are one hero of this!
01:16:47You wanted her gone! This was all your idea!
01:16:49Stop blaming me without proof! You've lost your mind!
01:16:53Mother, that sounds exactly like something you would say
01:16:56Mark, she's trying to tear our family apart!
01:17:00Don't listen to her!
01:17:02Mr. Briggs, Miss Russell has signed the contract
01:17:04Did she ask for anything else?
01:17:06No, sir, she signed it easily
01:17:09Just as I thought
01:17:11Is there more?
01:17:13Mrs. Russell went to the Choria charity event by herself tonight
01:17:17Was the Walsh family there?
01:17:19Yes, and there's been some drama
01:17:21Ms. Russell played a recording
01:17:23A recording, so she came prepared
01:17:28Are you heading out, Mr. Briggs?
01:17:30She's our partner now
01:17:31If something happens to her, it could affect our company
01:17:35I'll take you there, sir
01:17:45You've got some nerve, Hayley!
01:17:48You knew my son was married and still chased him!
01:17:52You hired thugs to kidnap Stella!
01:17:54Don't you dare pin that on me!
01:17:56You're the one who told me to do it!
01:17:58I was following your orders!
01:18:00You're the one who told me to do it!
01:18:04You're the one who told me to do it!
01:18:06You're the one who told me to do it!
01:18:07You're the one who told me to do it!
01:18:08You're the one who told me to do it!
01:18:09You're the one who told me to do it!
01:18:09Ms. Russell, I'm so sorry!
01:18:10This is all on me!
01:18:12Mark's mom tricked me, I swear!
01:18:16I never meant to hurt you!
01:18:17Whatever compensation you want
01:18:19Money, anything my family will pay
01:18:22Please, just forgive me!
01:18:23Oh?
01:18:24And how much exactly were you planning to offer?
01:18:28Whatever you want!
01:18:29Just name it!
01:18:31My family can afford it!
01:18:34Stella, why are you even entertaining this?
01:18:39Hayley, not everything in life can be solved by throwing money at it
01:18:43I don't want your money
01:18:45I'm taking the evidence to the police
01:18:49Let them handle it
01:18:51The police?
01:18:52Oh, and by the way
01:18:53All that effort you put in
01:18:55It was a waste
01:18:58Your guys failed
01:19:02I just walked away with a few scratches
01:19:08What?
01:19:10No!
01:19:11That can't be right!
01:19:13You're lying!
01:19:17Stella
01:19:19Thank God
01:19:20I was so worried
01:19:22You're safe
01:19:27Didn't I tell you to stay away from me?
01:19:30You make me sick
01:19:32Stella?
01:19:33I just wanted to make sure you were okay
01:19:35I'm not done with you
01:19:37That patent your company has been using?
01:19:41You forced me into a deal and kept using my work after it expired
01:19:46That's illegal
01:19:48The contract
01:19:50Hayley gave me that contract
01:19:51My new partners have already taken a hit because of your actions
01:19:56Even if I wanted to spare you, they won't
01:19:59Prepare for a huge payout
01:20:02Oh, come on, Stella
01:20:04Do you really think anyone will buy that story?
01:20:08Who would dare sue the Walsh group?
01:20:14You're just trying to play the sympathy card so Mark won't divorce you
01:20:18What do you even have to offer him?
01:20:20I bring him foreign investors
01:20:22Key partnerships
01:20:25You have nothing!
01:20:28What have you ever done besides that one lucky patent?
01:20:32If Mark hadn't backed you, you'd be on the streets
01:20:35He only used it because he felt sorry for you
01:20:38Do you seriously think you're some brilliant inventor?
01:20:44You are utterly disgraceful, Stella
01:20:47Am I?
01:20:49Or is it the woman who proudly acts as a mistress in public?
01:20:54Is this what passes for aristocratic grace in Autridi?
01:20:57Don't you dare!
01:20:59You and your worthless patent!
01:21:00My patent is the reason the Walsh group has had any success
01:21:03Should we review the contracts?
01:21:05The ones that show you've never paid me the monthly fees you owe?
01:21:08You're lying!
01:21:09You have no contract!
01:21:11Go on, prove it!
01:21:11Where is your evidence?
01:21:13Yes, bring it out
01:21:13I want to see who dares to challenge the Walsh family
01:21:19I'm the one who signed her patent?
01:21:20Is there an issue with that?
01:21:26I signed the contract
01:21:27Does anyone here have a problem with it?
01:21:29William, you?
01:21:30After years of working with the Walsh group
01:21:32Ms. Russell hasn't received a single payment
01:21:34Let me make this clear to everyone
01:21:36I run a principled company
01:21:37You will be paid every cent you are owed, Mrs. Russell
01:21:41And my legal team will assist you in recovering everything you are entitled to
01:21:45I'd never seen him look at me like that before
01:21:48Was it real?
01:21:49Or was my mind just playing tricks on me?
01:21:57And who exactly do you think you are?
01:21:59Did Stella hire you to play along in this little act of hers?
01:22:02Saying you signed a contract doesn't make it real
01:22:05What matters is proof, not who can talk the biggest game
01:22:10It's been a while since I've come across such pure stupidity
01:22:13It's almost entertaining
01:22:15William Briggs
01:22:16Heir to the Briggs family and Brissette
01:22:19The MU project with the Achire Royal family and the Hookwood Research Institute?
01:22:24All under my name
01:22:25Is that enough to qualify for Mrs. Russell's patent?
01:22:30Stella, come here
01:22:31You're still my wife
01:22:32My husband is trying to save face
01:22:35How pathetic
01:22:36Oh?
01:22:37So you do remember she's your wife, Mr. Walsh?
01:22:40That's funny
01:22:40I thought the woman beside you was your true match
01:22:45Stella, I said, come here
01:22:47Now!
01:22:49Mark, stop the act
01:22:50I was serious when I said I wanted a divorce
01:22:52You betrayed me first
01:22:54Did you really think I would stay chained to you forever?
01:22:59Stella, I know you're upset
01:23:01Let's just go home and talk
01:23:03Whatever apology you want, I'll give it
01:23:05You think an apology fixes this?
01:23:07You think I'm just making a scene?
01:23:09Mr. Briggs, thank you for recognizing my wife's talent
01:23:12I'm so happy for her
01:23:13Mr. Walsh, you should probably focus on calming your mistress
01:23:17How dare you?
01:23:19And Ms. Russell's patent speaks for itself
01:23:21It has nothing to do with you, so don't try to take credit
01:23:24You're enjoying this, aren't you, Stella?
01:23:26I'm enjoying someone finally seeing through your performance
01:23:39Get out of my way!
01:23:41No
01:23:54We received a little report of kidnapping and assault
01:23:56Haley Smith, Mark Wald, and Jaiselyn Wald, please come with us
01:24:00What? She really called the police? Mom, I don't want to go!
01:24:03Officer, this must be a mistake
01:24:05You can't arrest my daughter over a simple accusation
01:24:07We'll sort that out at the station, ma'am
01:24:09Please don't interfere
01:24:09Mom, do something! Call someone!
01:24:12I... I can't
01:24:13My name means nothing here
01:24:17Mrs. Smith, put your hands behind your back
01:24:19You're coming with us
01:24:23No! I didn't do anything wrong! Why are you taking me?
01:24:33Ma'am, if you're innocent, the truth will come out
01:24:35Please cooperate
01:24:35Mom, say something! Stella's lying to them!
01:24:38My daughter, they're putting you in handcuffs
01:24:41Jaiselyn Wald?
01:24:42I don't know anything, I swear
01:24:45I'll come with you, I'll tell you everything I know
01:24:52Where are you going?
01:24:55Back to the research center
01:24:57That's on my way, I'll drop you
01:24:59There's no need, Mr. Briggs, I can manage
01:25:02I helped you once and now you're trying to keep your distance?
01:25:20Oh!
01:25:23I am so sorry, I...
01:25:28Stella...
01:25:29Sorry, I... I didn't mean to
01:25:42Don't move
01:25:54I'm so sorry, Mr. Briggs
01:25:55The car turned, I lost my balance
01:25:57I swear I have no improper intentions towards you whatsoever
01:26:00I can see that
01:26:01No, you don't believe me!
01:26:03If I have any improper thoughts about you, then may I get hit by a car the moment I step
01:26:06outside?
01:26:07There's no need for such a dramatic curse
01:26:09I'm not blind, I saw what happened
01:26:10Well, you were basically blind last time
01:26:14Where did that come from?
01:26:21Mr. Briggs, I feel like you have a bias against me
01:26:24It makes things really difficult whenever you're around
01:26:28When have I ever made things difficult for you?
01:26:35Forget I said anything, just pretend I was rambling
01:26:41Ms. Russell, you took my measurements earlier
01:26:45I... yes?
01:26:48So the suit should fit perfectly this time, right?
01:26:51This time?
01:26:53But you told me not to waste my time on trivial things
01:26:57We've arrived at the Research Institute's dormitory, Ms. Russell
01:27:00Please take care
01:27:03Thank you
01:27:10Stella, you're back!
01:27:13How did it go? Is everything alright?
01:27:16It went well, Lainey
01:27:17Thanks to you and that recorder
01:27:18Everyone know Haley framed me
01:27:20Good! Those two snakes deserve everything that's coming to them
01:27:24I hope they rot!
01:27:25Speaking of things coming to them
01:27:26Why didn't you tell me Mr. Briggs was behind the company I signed with?
01:27:30Wait, what are you talking about?
01:27:33The new contract
01:27:34It's with a subsidiary of the Briggs Group
01:27:36Oh my god! William, you're working with him?
01:27:38I swear I had no idea!
01:27:40I just knew they seemed professional and the offer was generous
01:27:42I never would have guessed!
01:27:44It's okay, Lainey, it doesn't matter, as long as the partnership works
01:27:46Works? Stella, it's more than working, you're all over the internet
01:27:50Briggs Group is suing Mark for everything he's worth
01:27:52They are?
01:27:53Yes! The compensation alone might bankrupt him
01:27:55His partners are pulling out, investors are gone, the Walsh Group is finished!
01:28:02And Haley?
01:28:04Oh, she's not getting away
01:28:06This has become a diplomatic issue
01:28:09She's going to jail
01:28:10See you all!ma
01:28:22Why are
01:28:24What?
01:28:24You
