00:03Hello. I'm here to get a replacement's marriage certificate. I spilled coffee on this.
00:10Okay, please wait a moment.
00:16Ma'am, you're not in our system.
00:19What?
00:19You're not married.
00:20That's impossible. I got married right outside this building three years ago.
00:24Just a moment.
00:28I'm sorry.
00:29There's no record of your marriage in the system.
00:31One of the commissioners here was our witness.
00:34Let me check again for you.
00:38The man listed here as your husband, Mr. Aaron Parker, is married to a woman named Chloe Morgan.
00:45Chloe Morgan? He was already married to her?
00:48That means the ceremony with me was a sham?
00:55If studying abroad is your dream, of course I'll support you.
00:58Two years. That's the longest I can stand being apart from you.
01:02When you come back, we get married. Deal?
01:16Aaron?
01:21I swear, nothing happened.
01:24I'll send her away.
01:31I'll send her away.
01:31Chloe will be fine. It's just a few scratches. So stop worrying. Stay here with Natalie.
01:35How many times have I told you? No smoking in my house. Natalie hates the smell.
01:40Okay, okay. God, the perfect husband, huh? But seriously, why did you let Chloe move in then?
01:46Just got used to having Chloe around. Natalie's the only one I love.
01:49Then why is Chloe the one you actually married?
01:51It's just a title. Something to keep her quiet. Chloe stays in the shadows. Natalie gets my love. Out in
01:57the open.
01:57If Natalie ever finds out, she'll never take you back.
01:59She'll never find out.
02:00You should have listened to your friend, Aaron. I'm done being your clown.
02:05For three years, I thought I was his wife. I won't be a fool anymore. I am changing my name.
02:11Erase the pathetic woman. I was Natalie Cooper.
02:14Request to amend your records and legally change your name will be processed within two weeks.
02:18Aaron, in two weeks, you'll never find me again.
02:29Natalie, I've been looking for you. Where have you been?
02:35I went shopping. Forgot to tell you. Sorry.
02:39Don't apologize.
02:42I'm not mad at you. I was just worried.
02:45You had a craving for surf and turf yesterday, didn't you?
02:49I made it for you. Try it.
02:51You're a CEO, a billionaire. So important, so powerful.
02:54And you still learn to cook for me.
02:56Do I really deserve this?
02:58Of course you do.
02:59You are everything to me, Natalie.
03:01I've been taking care of you for the past ten years.
03:04And I don't plan on stopping anytime soon.
03:07Am I...
03:08the only one you love and care for?
03:11Natalie, you're my one and only.
03:13My only wife. My only love.
03:18Shit.
03:19Something came up at work.
03:20I have to go.
03:33Mr. Parker, we're so sorry.
03:35Ms. Morgan slipped in the bathroom.
03:37We'll add more staff to her care.
03:39This won't happen again.
03:40Yes.
03:40You make sure it doesn't, else I'll shut this hospital down for good.
03:44Of course, Mr. Parker. We'll be extra careful.
03:48A few scratches, and you're ready to tear the whole hospital apart.
03:52And you still say you don't love her?
03:54How are you feeling?
03:55It's all my fault.
03:57First the car accident.
03:58Now the fall.
03:59I'm taking up all your time.
04:01Time you should be spending with Natalie.
04:03What if she gets the wrong idea?
04:05I'm such a burden.
04:06Hey, stop that.
04:08Don't worry about her.
04:09Just focus on getting better.
04:11I've worn this for seven years.
04:13It's my lucky charm.
04:14It's yours now.
04:15It'll keep you safe.
04:17Happy birthday, my love.
04:18Natalie, are you serious?
04:20How did you even afford this?
04:22You didn't have to do this for me.
04:23I wanted to.
04:24Wear it.
04:25It'll bring you luck in everything you do.
04:28Natalie, I'll wear it forever.
04:35Aaron, you're so good to me.
04:38That was the first gift I ever gave him.
04:41I saved for a whole year working as an 18-year-old waitress just to buy it for him.
04:46And now it sits on another woman's wrist.
04:52Babe, I can't come home.
04:54Things got complicated.
04:55I have to fly to Chicago for a few days.
04:57Don't be mad.
04:57I'll make it up to you.
04:58A business trip to Chicago?
05:00Or is it a few days with your actual wife?
05:03Either way, I'll be gone in a few days too.
05:05None of it matters anymore.
05:10Honey, I'm home.
05:12Look, I got your favorite flowers and the perfume you love.
05:16Running a company isn't easy.
05:18I know I haven't been around much, but I'm here now.
05:21I understand.
05:23Work comes first.
05:24No, you come first, Natalie.
05:26Go get changed.
05:26I've got a surprise for you.
05:28Come on, let me see that beautiful smile.
05:35Mr. Parker really went all out this time.
05:38He flew the orchestra in just for her.
05:40She's so lucky.
05:41I'd kill for a husband like him.
05:58Hey, what's wrong?
05:59Are you okay?
06:01Do you want to leave?
06:06Do you want to leave?
06:08Okay, hang on.
06:09I'll have Mike bring some painkillers over.
06:15Yeah, right now.
06:16It'll be here soon.
06:17Just lean on me.
06:19Try to relax.
06:35You're supposed to be resting.
06:36What are you doing here?
06:38I told Mike to bring it.
06:39Mike's stuck in a meeting.
06:40I heard Mrs. Cooper's not feeling well, so I rushed here.
06:45It was pouring outside.
06:48I forgot my umbrella.
06:49But don't worry.
06:50I didn't let the pills get wet.
06:54Thanks.
06:55Here, take this.
06:59Didn't she move back to Northvale?
07:01Her parents aren't well.
07:02She desperately needed the job back, honey.
07:04And what happened years ago, it wasn't really her fault.
07:08Of course I believe you.
07:10If you'll excuse me, I need to use the restroom.
07:20Hey, it's pouring outside.
07:23Chloe's a big orchestra person, too.
07:24You don't mind if she stays, right?
07:27You're so sweet, baby.
07:36Natalie, I'm freezing.
07:38Come on.
07:39Warm me up.
07:43You held my hand today.
07:44From now on, don't you ever let go.
07:56You like these instruments, right?
07:58I bought them for you.
07:59Miss Cooper, Mr. Parker went to extraordinary lengths for these.
08:03Some were acquired at private auctions, others were on loan from museums.
08:06What's this?
08:24Natalie, hey, how are you feeling?
08:27I'm so sorry.
08:28Everything happened so fast.
08:29I thought I was saving you, but I was mistaken.
08:32Chloe, she didn't mean for it to happen, but it was her fault.
08:37I'm hungry.
08:38Natalie.
08:39I'm hungry.
08:40Okay.
08:40I'll go get you something.
08:42I'll be right back.
08:46Love makes you frantic.
08:48Hate makes you loud.
08:50But I feel neither.
08:56Welcome home, ma'am.
08:59You did all this?
09:00Yes.
09:01Consider this a token of my love.
09:03I know you had a bad few days at the hospital.
09:06Still mad?
09:07Natalie, I swear to you, I thought she was you.
09:09I was trying to save you.
09:10Tell me what to do so you'll forgive me.
09:12Please.
09:13Fine.
09:14Fire, Chloe.
09:17Fire, Chloe.
09:18Her family doesn't have much, and her parents are sick.
09:21Wouldn't that be cruel?
09:23You just said you'd do anything.
09:27It's Chloe.
09:29Mr. Parker, Aaron, help me, please.
09:32Some men are here.
09:32They're harassing me.
09:34Come here, pretty lady.
09:35I can't believe someone's paying us to do some nasty things.
09:37Where are you?
09:39Chloe?
09:40Hey!
09:40Natalie, where is she?
09:42One call from her, and you're falling apart.
09:45What exactly is she to you?
09:47This isn't about that.
09:48This could be a matter of life and death.
09:51You're choosing now to be jealous?
09:53Jealous?
09:53You're the one losing your mind over some assistant you claim you don't care about.
09:57I told you I punished her already.
09:59What more do you want?
10:00Hiring people to scare her like that?
10:02That's just vile.
10:03I'm asking you one last time, where is Chloe?
10:07I'll say this one last time.
10:09I don't know where she is.
10:11I don't even recognize you right now.
10:13Maybe I never really knew you at all.
10:16Pull the security footage.
10:18Find Chloe's last known location.
10:20Now.
10:21You're bleeding.
10:23Should we call an ambulance?
10:27No need.
10:28I will be fine.
10:33What about all this?
10:34Throw it out.
10:35All of it.
10:37Go through the house.
10:39Anything that belongs to me, throw it in the garbage.
10:42And don't say a word to Aaron.
10:44Yes, madam.
10:46So that's it, Aaron.
10:47You're done pretending.
10:49It's about time.
10:54You don't value what we had anymore.
10:56Why should I?
10:57Let them rot in the trash.
11:07Aaron, maybe let it go.
11:10You came on time.
11:12I wasn't hurt.
11:13No, I won't lay a hand on Natalie.
11:15But the people she sent after you, that's different.
11:17I'll make an example out of him.
11:18If you have to, then go easy.
11:21He's just hired to do a job.
11:22Easy?
11:23Not a chance.
11:25He thought he could touch you.
11:27I'll make sure he never tries again.
11:28I won't kill him, but I'll make sure he wishes I had.
11:39Throw him out of here.
11:42Let's go.
11:43Aaron.
11:47Natalie?
11:50Aaron.
11:52I don't feel good.
11:54Stay with me.
11:55I'm taking you to the hospital.
11:57Come on.
12:05Babe, I was out of line earlier.
12:07I shouldn't have snapped at you.
12:08I'm at the hospital with Chloe.
12:10But I'll come home as soon as she's stable.
12:13What kind of a monster have you become, Aaron?
12:18Miss Cooper, your legal name change has been approved effective immediately.
12:24I can be free now.
12:26It's over.
12:30I brought you something.
12:32There is a tiny camera in this necklace.
12:34You are never getting out of my sight again.
12:35Wow.
12:37You care about me that much.
12:39You care about me that much.
12:41Aaron.
12:42When you check that camera, you'll see it all.
12:44It was you.
12:44It was always you.
12:46From now on, Natalie Cooper doesn't exist.
12:49Doesn't exist.
12:58Hey, you okay?
13:00Yeah, just a cold.
13:02I used to be a doctor.
13:04That doesn't sound like a cold.
13:06It's nothing.
13:06I took a fall.
13:09Those aren't from a fall.
13:10They're from blunt force.
13:11Something's wrong internally.
13:13Are you being abused?
13:15Did someone hurt you?
13:23Help!
13:24We need medical assistance now!
13:28Hey, stay with me.
13:30Keep your eyes open.
13:31I'll take you to the hospital.
13:33No hospital.
13:34Please.
13:35Okay.
13:36I have a private clinic 20 minutes from here.
13:38Can I take you there?
13:39Stay with me.
13:40Hey.
13:40Hey.
13:47Easy.
13:48Don't sit up yet.
13:50You had two fractured ribs.
13:52One punctured your lung.
13:53You were developing a hemothorax at the airport there.
13:56I placed a chest tube and stopped bleeding.
13:59You feeling better now?
14:02Thank you, doctor.
14:04Lucas Bennett.
14:05I was a trauma surgeon.
14:07Now I just run medical clinics and hospitals.
14:10Still remember how to keep someone alive.
14:12May I ask your name?
14:14Laura.
14:14Laura Anderson.
14:17Dr. Bennett, time to change her dressings.
14:30These injuries, they didn't come from a fall.
14:33But if you ever decide you want help, I have attorneys.
14:36Law enforcement contacts, you wouldn't be alone.
14:39Thanks, but really, I'm okay.
14:42Get some rest.
14:43Your body needs to heal.
14:44I will.
14:47They won't budge on price.
14:48But the comms don't support their valuation.
14:50We're looking at at least a 30% premium over fair market.
14:55It's not just the valuation.
14:57The cash flow assumptions are aggressive.
14:59They've restructured short-term liabilities to make the balance edge look cleaner.
15:03But the debt's still there.
15:04Keep going.
15:07Take a look.
15:08The premium shouldn't be 30%.
15:09It should be closer to 12%.
15:20You look stronger.
15:21All thanks to you.
15:22The merger's closed.
15:24Your assessment was key in the negotiation.
15:26If you're interested, I could use someone like you as my strategic advisor.
15:31You're not worried.
15:32I might be planted by a competitor.
15:33I'm not a fool.
15:34I ran a background check on you.
15:36Nothing came back.
15:37It's strange.
15:38But my gut tells me I can trust you.
15:44Aaron.
15:45You are all that's on my mind.
15:48I'll destroy you.
15:49Piece by piece.
15:51And you won't see me coming.
15:55Loli, it's still hot.
15:56I had it simmered for four hours.
15:58It'll help with the inflammation.
16:01Aaron.
16:02You've been here every day.
16:04Won't Natalie get mad?
16:05She won't.
16:07She understands.
16:08I haven't heard from Natalie for days.
16:11I need to make a call.
16:16Aaron, there's only room for one woman by your side.
16:19And that's me.
16:23The number you have reached is not in service.
16:25Please check the number and dial again.
16:28Natalie.
16:29Really?
16:31You never do this.
16:33Where are you?
16:36Mike, any updates?
16:38Mr. Parker.
16:39Someone's wiped the security footage clean.
16:41What?
16:42I asked around, but no one's seen Natalie since the day you left the hospital for Miss Morgan.
16:55Passport, bank card, all the important things are gone.
17:00Natalie, where did you go?
17:02Mike.
17:03Check airports, banks, traffic cameras, whatever it takes.
17:07Find her.
17:11Mr. Parker, Miss Cooper's ID profile, it's gone.
17:15Driver's license, tax records, social, all of it.
17:19It's like she doesn't exist.
17:25The gift I gave her for her 18th birthday.
17:28She never took it off all these years.
17:36What?
17:38What have I done?
17:40Chloe, you made me.
17:41You bitch, you'll pay for this.
17:49Relax, he won't find anything.
17:51I wiped her medical records.
17:52And the surveillance footage, gone.
17:55Not a trace left.
17:56That bitch had it coming for trying to steal my husband.
18:01Aaron, why are you?
18:03You knew it was her in that sack, didn't you?
18:05I don't know what you're talking about.
18:07Answer me!
18:08I didn't know.
18:09Yes, I was scared she'd take you from me.
18:11But I didn't do it.
18:13I swear.
18:14I love you so much.
18:15How could I ever hurt someone you love?
18:18You want proof?
18:19Fine, I'll give it to you.
18:21You're too late, Aaron.
18:23There's nothing left to find.
18:27Mr. Parker, please.
18:29You can check the bank records.
18:31It was Miss Morgan hired us.
18:32She told us it was just a prank.
18:34We only pretended to harass her.
18:36Get out, now!
18:39Chloe, you have been taking money out from my company behind my back.
18:44You hurt my wife.
18:45How are you planning to justify this?
18:49Miss Morgan is here.
18:50Aaron, what's going on?
18:52You sounded urgent.
18:55Explain!
18:57This is fake.
18:59Someone set me up.
19:01It has to be Natalie.
19:02Yeah, she hates me.
19:03She's trying to frame me.
19:05That bitch had it coming for trying to steal my husband.
19:12Aaron, I can explain.
19:14It's Natalie.
19:15The recording, it's a fake too.
19:18She did all this so you'd hate me.
19:21I recorded it myself.
19:23Aaron, I love you, Aaron.
19:26Love?
19:27You think that word will save you?
19:30What the hell, Aaron?
19:30You came to me first.
19:32You used me.
19:32You let me believe I mattered.
19:34And don't say you love her.
19:36You don't know what love is.
19:37You married me and kept her on the side.
19:39And now you're pretending to be loyal.
19:41Pathetic.
19:41Natalie will never come back to you.
19:43Never.
19:44Fine.
19:44I misjudged you.
19:46It's time to make things right.
19:51You can't do this to me.
19:53I'm your legal wife.
19:54I can return every cent I stole from you.
19:58For you, it's always about money.
20:01For me, I just want you to suffer.
20:04Where are you taking me?
20:05Get off me.
20:07Aaron, you can't do this.
20:09I can't do this.
20:24Babe, look.
20:26I got a new dress.
20:28Do you like it?
20:29It's beautiful.
20:36Natalie.
20:37Natalie.
20:38Natalie.
20:38Natalie.
20:42His company's on the guest list tonight, too.
20:45He could be here.
20:46Did you come for him?
20:47Of course not.
20:51No.
20:52Move the presentation to Q3.
20:56Is that Natalie?
20:57No way.
20:58Excuse me.
21:00The lady who just walked in, who is she?
21:03You mean Ms. Laura Anderson?
21:04She's the founder of NNC Capital.
21:07N.C.
21:07Her initials, Natalie Cooper.
21:10Natalie.
21:11It's you.
21:13It has to be.
21:14It has to be.
21:21Laura.
21:25Laura.
21:26Hey.
21:27It's me.
21:28You're safe.
21:29Look at me.
21:30Okay.
21:30Panic spike.
21:32Acute PTSD episode.
21:34Follow my voice.
21:35Breathe in.
21:36Four seconds.
21:37Hold.
21:37Now exhale.
21:40I'm okay now.
21:43Sorry.
21:44Just had a nightmare.
21:45Let me get you some water.
21:48Here.
21:49Drink this.
21:52Want to talk about it?
21:53Talk about it.
22:00Sometimes I can feel the cold metal rod on my skin.
22:05Do you know how it feels when you scream helplessly and...
22:10No one around you can hear it?
22:14Eventually, a screaming stopped when I realized help wasn't coming.
22:19When the man hurting me was the same one who promised to keep me safe.
22:24I'm safe.
22:27The drawer over there.
22:30Can you grab what's inside for me?
22:35My medical records.
22:43And a coffee-stained fake marriage certificate.
22:46Three fractured ribs.
22:48One punctured lung.
22:50Commitative fracture of the right big toes.
22:52And patient name, Natalie Cooper.
22:55Yeah.
22:55Wife to Aaron Parker.
22:57Except we were never legally married.
23:00He thought he was beating a thug who went after his actual wife, Chloe Morgan.
23:04The person inside the sack...
23:07Was me.
23:09Natalie Cooper.
23:13That's why you've been so obsessed with the Parker Group.
23:16Asking about it all the time.
23:17This isn't a business strategy.
23:19It's personal.
23:20You want revenge?
23:21I want him to know what it's like to lose everything.
23:25His company, his money, his name.
23:27Revenge can feel powerful at first.
23:31But it won't bring you peace.
23:33Not really.
23:34Then what will?
23:36Forgiveness?
23:39Forgiveness?
23:45I'm not trying to stop you.
23:47I just don't want this hatred for him to eat you alive.
23:51Those scars don't define you.
23:53But if going after him is what you need to close this chapter, then I'll do it with you.
23:58Show me the plan.
23:59Let me help you destroy the Parker Group.
24:04Lucas, you needn't get involved.
24:06I can take care of him myself.
24:08I am sure you could, but I am not giving you a choice.
24:12Alright.
24:13Start with your equity structure.
24:15Major shareholders.
24:16Offshore holdings.
24:18Then I'll walk you through the strategy.
24:20I'll get right on it.
24:21But tonight...
24:23You sleep.
24:28Wait.
24:31Throw this away.
24:33For me.
24:39Okay, Laura.
24:45Ms. Cooper, Parker Group dropped another 5% this morning.
24:48The market's reacting to Aaron Parker's liquidity issues.
24:57Good.
24:58Now he's liquidating personal assets trying to plug the hole from Chloe's embezzlement.
25:04Continue offloading our Parker Group bonds.
25:06If they collapse, we'll take a hit too.
25:09I know.
25:10I don't care.
25:11I don't care.
25:12I don't care.
25:12I don't care.
25:13I don't care.
25:13I don't care.
25:14I don't care.
25:15I don't care.
25:17I don't care.
25:19I don't care.
25:21I don't care.
25:23I don't care.
25:23I don't care.
25:23I don't care.
25:32I don't care.
25:32Find out who's behind this.
25:34We trace where the pressure came from.
25:36It's coming through a Swiss company.
25:38Newly formed.
25:39Heavy capital.
25:40No visible control.
25:42Name?
25:42NC capital.
25:45Natalie.
25:46Newly.
25:47Keep digging.
25:48I want ownership trails.
25:50Shell layers.
25:51Everything.
25:52If it's really her, I'll know.
25:53Yes, sir.
25:59Miss Cooper, this is Harry West, former CFO of Parker Group.
26:04All right.
26:04Got it.
26:07Miss Cooper, about the terms you promised.
26:15Here's your deposit.
26:16You'll get the rest after the job's done.
26:19Aaron's scrambling to stabilize the Kizidi.
26:21He's planning to leverage core patents to calm the market.
26:25With my guidance, he'll think he's contained the bleeding.
26:28No.
26:29You'll actually help him.
26:31What?
26:31You'll help him breathe for a bit.
26:34So he thinks he's survived this.
26:36Then you strike him down.
26:39Understood.
26:47The stock's stabilized.
26:49I can see that.
26:51But how?
26:52It was Mr. West.
26:54He brought in emergency capital.
26:55Several institutional placements.
26:57Funds cleared within an hour.
26:58Harry?
26:59We're all surprised how he pulled it off.
27:00But we're grateful.
27:02At least for now, the liquidities restored were safe.
27:05No.
27:06Look into it.
27:07That was too fast.
27:08I want every firm Harry contacted.
27:10Now.
27:11Yes, sir.
27:18Aaron is suspicious.
27:20Just as expected.
27:21Should we act now?
27:23Not yet.
27:24Let him breathe.
27:26When he realizes I want him to come to me begging.
27:30The way I once begged him to come back.
27:33Come back.
27:33Mr. Parker, you were right.
27:34Right.
27:35The capital's gone.
27:36The same firms withdrew immediately after stabilization.
27:39Mazum saw has triggered.
27:40We're at a historic low.
27:43Where is Harry?
27:44He's disappeared.
27:46And the thumbs?
27:47Did you identify who owns those thumbs?
27:53We traced the ownership.
27:55The shell companies all rolled up to one parent entity.
27:58NNC Capital.
28:00Natalie Cooper.
28:01Cooper.
28:02Leave me.
28:05Did you come back for revenge?
28:07Revenge.
28:07Move.
28:12Hmm.
28:13Mr. Parker.
28:15I believe you know you're trespassing.
28:17Should I have security escort you out?
28:19Natalie.
28:20I know it's you.
28:22It's Laura now.
28:24I know what Chloe did.
28:26She staged the whole thing.
28:27The attack.
28:28The hospital.
28:29All of it.
28:30She made me believe.
28:31I didn't know it was you in that sack.
28:33If I had known I would have never...
28:34Never what?
28:38Never beaten me with a rod?
28:39Never shattered my ribs?
28:41Never punctured my lungs?
28:42Never crushed my toes?
28:43Or is that just the part you remember?
28:47I'm sorry.
28:48I didn't know, Natalie.
28:49I was wrong.
28:50So, so wrong.
28:52Tell me what to do.
28:53Anything.
28:53I'll do it if you could forgive me.
28:57You want...
29:00Parker Group?
29:05What I want is...
29:07For you to hand me your company.
29:09You'll sit back and watch while I dismantle it.
29:11Division by division.
29:13Asset by asset.
29:16If you sign it over, your company's legacy ends with me.
29:19If you don't, you lose any chance of Natalie again.
29:25Right now, you're in no position to negotiate.
29:36But, you're in no position to negotiate.
29:37Sell the new energy division.
29:39Transfer healthcare to Bennett Group.
29:41Keep the other shells intact for restructuring.
29:45And the Parker brand?
29:47There's no more Parker Group.
29:52I'll let you keep your CEO title.
29:55Ceremonial only.
29:56No voting authority.
29:57No independent sign-off.
29:58You report to me daily.
30:03Mr. Parker, you got a problem with that?
30:10Mr. Parker, you got a problem with that?
30:19Mr. Parker, today's compliance report.
30:24Exterior signage cleaned five times.
30:27Plants watered.
30:28No visitors logged.
30:32Here, per Ms. Cooper's instruction,
30:35I require to sign off to verify active management of the holding entity.
30:40If this will get you to forgive me, I'll keep doing it.
30:49So, how does revenge taste?
30:52Hollow.
30:54That's Altair, part of the Aquila constellation.
30:58And over there, Vega.
31:02Some tales say they meet once a year.
31:05Once a year?
31:07That sounds cruel.
31:12But at least they meet every year.
31:15Don't they?
31:16Natalie.
31:22Mr. Parker, are you stalking me?
31:25Who is he?
31:26Lucas Bennett.
31:27My partner.
31:28Partner, boyfriend, or future husband.
31:32Call it whatever you want.
31:33It has nothing to do with you.
31:34We're still married, mind you.
31:36Married?
31:36Our certificate was fake.
31:38Last time I checked, your real wife is in prison.
31:42You knew?
31:42Of course I know.
31:44I know all of your pathetic, sick games.
31:46Mr. Parker, I'm warning you.
31:49If you harass my girlfriend again, I'll file for a restraining order.
31:56Was that too much?
31:58Compared to what he did?
31:59No.
32:02Look, that's Vega.
32:03Turns out the stars can be warmer than the sun.
32:11Natalie, give me one more chance.
32:14Please?
32:15Leave before I call the police.
32:16Natalie, we were together for ten years.
32:18That's not nothing.
32:19Come out.
32:31Aaron, do you think I am going to fall for this pathetic act?
32:35Please, just forgive me.
32:36We loved each other once.
32:38Why are you so sure we can't love again?
32:43I won't leave until you forgive me.
32:45I won't.
32:48Natalie, Aaron's still outside.
32:50I checked.
32:51He's been drinking heavily.
32:52For weeks.
32:53Barely eating.
32:54He could collapse.
32:55If he stays out there, he could be serious.
33:01So?
33:02Are you really going this far?
33:03You took his company, stripped his authority.
33:06You made him report to you like a housekeeper.
33:08Now you want to watch him.
33:09Watch him.
33:11What?
33:12Suffer physically?
33:13Well, he deserves it.
33:15Is that truly what you think?
33:17Natalie, tell me honestly.
33:18Have you truly let him go?
33:21I have.
33:22Then can't you see this is too much?
33:23You know what he did to me.
33:25I do.
33:26But right now, you're becoming him.
33:31If you hold on to hate too long, it doesn't just burn the people you hate.
33:34It burns you.
33:35Miss Cooper, Parker Group just teamed up with three PE firms.
33:40They've launched a hostile bid on our public shares.
33:42When did it start?
33:43Half an hour ago.
33:44They've already picked up 12% and they're still buying.
33:46NNC Capital's tactics destabilized the market.
33:49It was hostile and irresponsible.
33:51We're stepping in to restore order and reclaim what belongs to Parker Group.
33:55We need to call the board, lock up liquidity, trace their funding now.
34:00Harry was probably never truly on our side.
34:04What do you mean?
34:05I don't believe he's doing this for Parker Group.
34:07He's only loyal to his own gains.
34:09What's your plan?
34:10I don't need to do anything.
34:12Send Aaron up.
34:13Let him clean up his own mess.
34:18Fine.
34:18I'll go get him.
34:22Aaron, you've been a CEO for years.
34:24This should be easy for you.
34:28Lucas told you wanted me to deal with Harry?
34:30Yes.
34:31I want you to fix this.
34:33Why me?
34:34Because you built the old Parker Network.
34:37You know where the leverage is buried.
34:41In my safe, there's a ledger with all the data that I can use as leverage.
34:46It's enough to bring them down.
34:54Your severance packages have been wired.
34:57Effective immediately, the Parker Group is dissolving its current executive structure.
35:01You are all released from your positions.
35:04Ms. Cooper, we've served the Parker family for over 30 years.
35:07That's why you're getting double severance and full non-compete waivers.
35:11You leave with your reputation intact.
35:13Mr. West, I hope you'll accept the generous package.
35:16Because the alternative is an orange jumpsuit, just like Chloe Morgan.
35:26Mr. Parker, you did great.
35:37Do you know what I thought in that sack?
35:41I kept waiting for you to hear my voice.
35:44I'm sorry.
35:45But you didn't.
35:46So my answer is no.
35:48You don't need to report to me anymore.
35:51No daily signatures.
35:52No more humiliations.
35:54You and I are done.
35:55Let's stop being in each other's lives ever again.
36:04There's something I've been meaning to do.
36:06I kept waiting for the perfect moment.
36:08Turns out, I can't wait any longer.
36:12Is it a ring?
36:13How did you know?
36:14When you thought I was asleep, you measured my finger.
36:17I can't hide anything from you.
36:19And I don't want to.
36:24Laura, Anderson, whatever you want to call yourself is fine with me.
36:28But know this.
36:30I don't want to save you.
36:31I don't want to fix you.
36:33Because you're perfect the way you are.
36:35I just want to stand next to you.
36:36on the good days, on the hard ones.
36:39As your equal.
36:40Will you marry me?
36:42Yes.
36:43Yes.
36:44Yes, yes!
