00:00:01Three years. Three years I've loved him.
00:00:05Everyone tells me Ethan will never change.
00:00:07That a man like him only loves himself.
00:00:12But they don't see the real Ethan.
00:00:14I know he loves me.
00:00:17Thank you so much. I really, really appreciate it.
00:00:22Tonight, it will be our big night.
00:00:24And I'll give him all of me.
00:00:26We'll make a beautiful baby together.
00:00:30A family of our own.
00:00:44I'm so sorry.
00:01:37Oh, my God.
00:02:00Oh, my God.
00:02:02Marla, you're early.
00:02:05Why so shocked, babe?
00:02:07You're always talking about wanting to try new things.
00:02:13Come and join us.
00:02:19Three years.
00:02:21Three years I wasted on you!
00:02:24God, I'm such an idiot.
00:02:27I was thinking I was going to have a baby with you.
00:02:30Oh, baby?
00:02:33Sweetheart, you wouldn't even put out after three years and now you're thinking about playing
00:02:38Mommy.
00:02:41Though, if you're finally ready to spread those legs,
00:02:45these lovely ladies can show you how it's done.
00:02:50Screw you.
00:03:02I'm not going to let you take this from me, too.
00:03:09You know what?
00:03:09I don't need a man to make my dreams come true.
00:03:12One appointment, one sperm donor, I can have a baby of my own.
00:03:25Six months to produce an heir or I lose control of Crawford Industries to my nephew.
00:03:31Everything I've built over the last decade, gone.
00:03:35The surrogate candidates are all, for other words,
00:03:39Ivy League educated, impeccable health histories.
00:03:41I don't need their resumes, Thompson.
00:03:43I need someone who won't turn this into a media circus.
00:03:47Find me someone who knows your place and will disappear after delivery.
00:04:11I need someone who knows your place and will disappear after delivery.
00:04:33Miss, are you here for the interview?
00:04:37The interview?
00:04:39Yes, of course.
00:04:44Miss, okay.
00:04:49Miss, sit.
00:04:56Right, um, let's get started.
00:05:01Hey, um, education background.
00:05:05Excuse me?
00:05:06And I'm going to need a full medical history,
00:05:09specifically genetic disorders.
00:05:11Do you work out?
00:05:13Well, I mean, you look acceptable.
00:05:20Hmm.
00:05:24Do you have any idea who I am?
00:05:28I'm just trying to be thorough.
00:05:30It's about creating a healthy baby, after all.
00:05:34Why are attractive men so full of themselves?
00:05:39I don't care if you're Brad Pitt.
00:05:42I need to know your reproductive history.
00:05:44So, sexual partners in the last six months?
00:05:49It's a cross-conference.
00:05:50I can't show her out.
00:05:52Thompson, leave us.
00:05:56What are you doing?
00:05:59Making sure this interview is more thorough.
00:06:09Harvard Business School, MBA, top of class.
00:06:13No family history of genetic disorders.
00:06:16I work you out five times a week.
00:06:19As for intimate matters,
00:06:23I can assure you, performance has never been an issue.
00:06:29Now Thompson is gone,
00:06:31are you comfortable to share yours?
00:06:33Um, yes.
00:06:35Of course.
00:06:38I'm perfectly healthy, too.
00:06:40No genetic disorders,
00:06:42and I get regular checkups.
00:06:44Um, I've even been taking prenatal vitamins.
00:06:50You really do seem like the perfect match.
00:06:54Good.
00:06:55Now, regarding compensation,
00:06:57what figure did you have in mind?
00:07:01Well, I was thinking around $800.
00:07:06$800?
00:07:07I expected the fee to be significantly higher.
00:07:13I know, I know it's not a lot of money,
00:07:15but considering the quality,
00:07:18I could, I could help,
00:07:20I can do paperwork, whatever.
00:07:22Talk to me.
00:07:23Bring in the contracts.
00:07:32All of this?
00:07:33Seriously?
00:07:35Take your time to review,
00:07:37but the key point is after birth,
00:07:40the child stays with me.
00:07:41No contact.
00:07:44You want to keep my baby?
00:07:46Are you insane?
00:07:53That's standard procedure for surrogacy arrangements.
00:07:56Surrogacy?
00:07:57Surrogacy.
00:07:58The position you're interviewing for.
00:08:00Interview?
00:08:01I'm hated by sperm.
00:08:04You came to what?
00:08:06I thought you were a donor.
00:08:08That's why I was asking you all the questions
00:08:10about the history and stuff.
00:08:12I thought you were here to be my surrogate.
00:08:15Right.
00:08:16Well, I guess I've made a mistake,
00:08:19so I'm just going to go.
00:08:21Wait!
00:08:25A million dollars
00:08:27for carrying my child.
00:08:30I want my own baby,
00:08:32Mr. Crawford,
00:08:33not somebody else's.
00:08:36Ah.
00:08:37You might need that.
00:08:46Clean this up.
00:08:48Bring in the next.
00:08:56Hello?
00:08:57Miss Reed,
00:08:58your father.
00:08:59You need to come now.
00:09:01Okay, I'm coming here.
00:09:23Doctor,
00:09:24how is he?
00:09:24How is my father?
00:09:26The cancer is spread aggressively
00:09:28without immediate treatment.
00:09:29Then do something.
00:09:31Save him.
00:09:33Is there a treatment you can do?
00:09:35There is a new treatment.
00:09:37Okay, then let's do it.
00:09:39But maybe it's quite expensive.
00:09:41How much?
00:09:42Around one million dollars.
00:09:45A million dollars?
00:09:46Yes.
00:09:48Can I get a loan or something?
00:09:51Actually, this is a new technology
00:09:52and there is no loan policy.
00:09:54Sorry.
00:09:55Sorry.
00:10:15Oh.
00:10:18Hey.
00:10:23Oh.

00:10:34this is the last batch yes sir the blonde want to know about ring sizes and brunette
00:10:43asked about moving in and the redhead all of them want the Crawford name it was qualified
00:10:53she was refreshing no pretence no schemes but she wasn't even here for surrogacy
00:11:02sometimes the best candidate isn't looking for the job
00:11:17hello i'm adrian crawford
00:11:31i've been thinking
00:11:35about yesterday i may have been a bit hasty you're reconsidering don't sound so smug about
00:11:42it i have my reasons as do i i'd like to propose a modification to the original terms what kind
00:11:54of modification joint custody you wouldn't be just carrying the child you'd be the baby's
00:11:59mother why would you agree to that you're honest direct no hidden agenda qualities i want in my
00:12:08child's mother
00:12:09so i'd really get to be a part of the baby's life
00:12:11yes but understand this clearly we'll be parents nothing more no romantic entanglements no emotional
00:12:21expectations
00:12:32father the board is getting impatient have you considered the arrangements i suggested
00:12:39i've already made my own plans adrian if you're thinking of using some random surrogate to produce an
00:12:47care forget it the crawford name means something i won't let it be tainted by i've already chosen my
00:12:54fiance what we'll discuss this at dinner
00:12:59did i just get promoted from surrogate to fiance

00:13:27and after the baby comes we'll arrange for an amicable separation

00:19:01Sorry, didn't see you there.
00:19:06You're always in the way.
00:19:11Ah, my brother's mysterious fiancé.
00:19:15Mrs. Crawford.
00:19:17Catherine, please, we're family now, supposedly.
00:19:22Helen, tea, please.
00:19:24Yes, Mrs. Crawford.
00:19:28So tell me, dear, how did you and Adrian meet exactly?
00:19:33Through mutual friends.
00:19:37Oh, really?
00:19:38Mutual friends.
00:19:42Dear, what friend of Adrian's would possibly move in your social circles?
00:19:48Unless this is more of a business arrangement?
00:19:52I'm sorry?
00:19:53Well, a girl of your position, surely some negotiation was involved?
00:19:59The only negotiation was whether I would take his last name or keep my own.
00:20:06I'm sorry.
00:20:09I'm sorry.
00:20:12I'm sorry.
00:20:13Next weekend is our family dinner, and as Adrian's fiancé, your presence is required.
00:20:20I'd be honored.
00:20:21Hmm.
00:20:23Perfect.
00:20:23I'm sure you can find something more appropriate to wear.
00:20:30You can go now.
00:20:43Excuse me, Miss Rie.
00:20:44I need to clean.
00:20:45Of course.
00:20:46Let me just...
00:20:47I need to clean this.
00:20:52Is this what you're wearing to the family dinner?
00:20:56How creative.
00:20:58Must be hiding your family.
00:21:00Watching you chase after rich men.
00:21:03Let me help you with this.
00:21:05My friends!
00:21:07How clumsy of me.
00:21:09You did that on purpose.
00:21:11Do you think you can really marry Mr. Crawford?
00:21:13She was just trash trying to climb the social ladder.
00:21:20Mr. Crawford!
00:21:22She just attacked me!
00:21:26I was trying to help with the...
00:21:27Get out!
00:21:28But I was just...
00:21:29One more word and you're fired.
00:21:32Get out!
00:21:41What happened?
00:21:42Nothing.
00:21:43I need some space.
00:21:45I want to stay in the guest room tonight.
00:21:46Lila, you don't have to do that.
00:21:48I need some space!
00:21:52You take the bed.
00:21:53I'll take the sofa.
00:21:55I miss you so much, Daddy.
00:21:58Don't worry about me, okay?
00:22:00As long as we can get you better,
00:22:02I won't let their words get to me.
00:22:04I promise.
00:22:06Lila, what happened?
00:22:08What should I do?
00:22:22How's the happy couple?
00:22:26How's the happy couple?
00:22:36How's the happy couple?
00:22:38Um, that is not a small pinch.
00:22:41It's okay.
00:22:42I'm here.
00:22:44You're safe.
00:22:47Perfect timing for the injection.
00:22:49I don't think it's not a small pinch.
00:22:53I don't know what...
00:23:11I don't know how much the
00:23:32focus this is just a simple procedure just pretend she's not right outside

00:24:32well that was helpful
00:24:43are you okay yeah dr anderson said that the hormone shots would hurt but it's it's causing you pain
00:24:50yeah it's it's a little uncomfortable but i mean it will it will pass oh here
00:24:59oh okay
00:25:12thanks
00:25:17well the hormone shots were a part of the agreement and any resulting pain is technically a work-related
00:25:22issue and as your employer i have a duty of care
00:25:28okay
00:25:53purely professional care
00:26:06Purely professional, huh?
00:26:16Adrian.
00:26:19Um, about this weekend.
00:26:21I'm sorry, there's an emergency in Atlanta.
00:26:23The merge is falling apart.
00:26:25Top's in. Get the jet ready in 20.
00:26:28Your family invited me to dinner.
00:26:31Guess I'll handle it on my own.
00:26:37Well, I don't suppose we should expect punctuality from a person who's probably never had a proper watch in her
00:26:43life.
00:26:44I introduce him to the Lawson Harris, the senator's daughter.
00:26:49I don't understand why he picked this gold digger from God knows where.
00:26:53What did you say she did, Ethan?
00:26:56Retail?
00:26:57Worse.
00:26:58A wannabe writer.
00:27:00She probably thought that landing a Crawford would be her best-selling story.
00:27:07Well, I have tried to be welcoming.
00:27:10I had the chef prepare her place, setting, and everything.
00:27:13She probably couldn't figure out which work to do.
00:27:27I apologize for the sight delay.
00:27:33My, my.
00:27:34Trying so hard to look the part.
00:27:38James, do make sure none of the silver goes missing after dinner.
00:27:42I suppose Adrian's credit card is getting some good use.
00:27:46And although money can buy designer clothes, it can't buy breeding.
00:27:50Actually, I made this dress myself.
00:27:56Oh, darling.
00:27:58Woo.
00:27:58A seamstress for a daughter-in-law?
00:28:01How quaint.
00:28:04At least we know who's going to be mending Adrian socks.
00:28:09I may not have been born into privilege, but I was raised with something much more valuable.
00:28:16Integrity.
00:28:17Integrity.
00:28:18Is that what you call seducing your way into our family?
00:28:23How much, how much will it take you to disappear in your price?
00:28:32The difference between you and I, Mr. Crawford, is that I don't think that everything comes with a price tag.
00:28:40Excuse me.
00:28:49Stay calm.
00:28:53You can do this.
00:28:57Mmm, mmm.
00:28:59Getting all dressed up for me.
00:29:02Baby.
00:29:05Ah!
00:29:06What's the rush?
00:29:08We're all family here.
00:29:10Well, almost family.
00:29:12Don't touch me.
00:29:14You used to like it when I touched you.
00:29:16Remember how shy you were?
00:29:19Always saying no.
00:29:21Rant off me, bastard!
00:29:23Careful, though.
00:29:25One scream from you and everyone at dinner is going to know what kind of girl you really are.
00:29:30Now, where were we?
00:29:41Everything all right, dear?
00:29:43You look flushed.
00:29:45So, as I was saying about the messers.
00:29:51Stop it.
00:29:53Something wrong, Miss Reed?
00:29:55Stop it!
00:29:59Enough!
00:30:00No class?
00:30:02No manners?
00:30:02I don't know how you seduced my son, but someone like you could never deserve a place in this family.
00:30:11I...
00:30:12I...
00:30:12I'm the one who sued her.
00:30:19Who convinced her to give me a chance.
00:30:24Adrian.
00:30:25If anyone's unworthy in this relationship, it's me.
00:30:28You want to know how we met?
00:30:29She crashed into my life, quite literally.
00:30:32Papers flying, coffee spilled.
00:30:34Unlike some people, she didn't care about my name or my money.
00:30:39She, uh, refused me several times.
00:30:43Called me too arrogant, too controlling.
00:30:45First woman who dared stand out to me.
00:30:48And that's when I knew I had to have her.
00:30:50I...
00:30:55Sir, two things.
00:30:56Your sister has invited Miss Reed to tonight's family dinner, and your jet is ready.
00:31:00We can go now.
00:31:06Cancel it, Liam.
00:31:07What's the merger?
00:31:10Yes, sir.
00:31:13Funny that last week family's dinners were the most pointless waste of time in existence.
00:31:21Something's more important to business.
00:31:27Oh, what a touching story, Uncle.
00:31:30Too bad it's either a complete lie, or she's been playing us both.
00:31:37What are you talking about?
00:31:39We've been dating for three years.
00:31:42I have pictures of us together.
00:31:48What?
00:31:49She probably planned this from the start.
00:31:52Dating me to get close to the family, then setting her sights higher.
00:31:57You manipulative little tree.
00:31:59Face it, Uncle.
00:32:00You're just another rung on her ladder to the top.
00:32:05Face it, Uncle.
00:32:07You're just another rung on her ladder to the top.
00:32:14That's for every lie you just told.
00:32:19Adrian!
00:32:20How dare you hit my son!
00:32:22Where do you think you're going?
00:32:23We are not finished here yet!
00:32:25Yes, we are.
00:32:31I'm sorry, I shouldn't have left you alone with that.
00:32:34Thank you for coming back, and for making up such a beautiful story about us.
00:32:43Your hands, what happened?
00:33:00As my fiancée, you have access to the family accounts.
00:33:03I expect you to use them.
00:33:06I didn't want to presume.
00:33:08You're a Crawford now.
00:33:20Dr. Anderson?
00:33:21Mr. Crawford, the embryos are ready, so we can proceed with the implantation tomorrow morning.
00:33:27I see.
00:33:31What is it?
00:33:32Is something wrong with the embryos?
00:33:34I've been thinking.
00:33:36Perhaps we should approach this matter in a more natural manner.
00:33:43between a husband and wife.
00:33:47What are your thoughts?
00:33:51I think that we should go to bed.
00:33:55We have a really big day tomorrow.
00:33:58So, I mean, goodnight.
00:34:07You know, you look like a giant polar bear in that outfit.
00:34:12Focus on the procedure.
00:34:15Try to relax, Mrs. Crawford.
00:34:24There.
00:34:25See that white spot?
00:34:29That's her baby.
00:34:35You know, I can walk.
00:34:38Doctor's orders?
00:34:39You seem more nervous than I do.
00:34:45I'm merely following medical procedure.
00:34:56Look at her.
00:34:59She's acting like a princess.
00:35:02She was probably a waitress last week.
00:35:06Now she's got Mr. Crawford wrapped around her finger.
00:35:10She's acting like a prisoner.
00:35:18That sounds so funny.

00:41:50You look exactly the same.
00:42:02And you must be the fiancé.
00:42:05I'm so pleased Adrienne has found someone after all these years.
00:42:09That's really kind, but I'm sorry.
00:42:11Who are you?
00:42:15I'm just someone who cares about Adrienne's happiness.
00:42:18More than anyone else.
00:42:25Oh my god!
00:42:28You two are finally back together.
00:42:31Everyone, look who's here, the golden couple.
00:42:36I heard Adrienne Crawford was engaged.
00:42:38I knew it was you, Vivian.
00:42:40When is the wedding?
00:42:45Actually, I'd like to introduce you all to my fiancé, Lala Reid.
00:42:56We're expecting our first child, and of course you're all welcome to the wedding.
00:43:01She's pregnant?
00:43:03Oh, I'm so sorry.
00:43:05I just assumed congratulations for you both.
00:43:12Adrienne Crawford in a complete unknown?
00:43:14How did you manage that?
00:43:16Adrienne chose for over Vivian.
00:43:18Is he crazy?
00:43:20Oh, Benji, how have you been?
00:43:23Great.
00:43:24Let's go, pal.
00:43:31They can be so judgmental, can't they?
00:43:34Don't take it too personally, dear.
00:43:37Shh.
00:43:42Gentlemen!
00:43:43What are you all talking about?
00:43:50They do look like the perfect couple.
00:44:05Drinking?
00:44:06I thought you were pregnant.
00:44:08None of your business.
00:44:13You know how Adrienne is.
00:44:15Always has to win.
00:44:17Especially against me.
00:44:18He hates when I take things from him.
00:44:20What are you talking about?
00:44:29Perfect couple, right?
00:44:32Until...
00:44:33Dun-dun-dun!
00:44:36Vivian fell madly in love with me.
00:44:39Leaving dear Uncle heartbroken.
00:44:42Since then,
00:44:44whatever I want,
00:44:46he has to take.
00:44:48Whatever I have,
00:44:50he has to win.
00:44:51Like you.
00:44:54What you want,
00:44:55you never have.
00:44:57Never.
00:44:58You and Ethan,
00:45:00you've never really
00:45:01gone along, have you?
00:45:04You don't get it.
00:45:06Stop being naive.
00:45:08You're just his tool for revenge.
00:45:18I'm just his tool for revenge.
00:45:34What do you think you're doing?
00:45:36You are pregnant.
00:45:37Why are you drinking?
00:45:38Oh, now you care.
00:45:42It's soda.
00:45:44I know what I'm doing.
00:45:59What happened back there?
00:46:01Talk to me.
00:46:04Lila, I am worried.
00:46:06So you talk to Ethan,
00:46:07but not me.
00:46:10Well, you do care so much
00:46:12about your nephew,
00:46:13don't you?
00:46:28Lila, open the door.
00:46:32Please.
00:46:53Lila, open the door.
00:46:54Oh, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no,
00:47:03no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no,
00:47:03no.
00:47:04The eggs are still warm.
00:47:07I apologize about last night. I was...
00:47:10I was just worried about you.
00:47:13Worried about me, or worried about the baby?
00:47:19What do you mean?
00:47:21Is this why you're being so nice to me?
00:47:24Making me breakfast, being all protective?
00:47:28It's just for the baby?
00:47:31Leila, you've been so strange since yesterday. Why?
00:47:36Was Vivian your girlfriend?
00:47:43Yes.
00:47:51And then she got with Ethan?
00:47:55Yes.
00:47:57Okay, so I'm just...
00:47:59But Vivian and I were...
00:48:06Sir, the Singapore version is falling apart.
00:48:08We need to immediately.
00:48:09I'm in the middle of summer.
00:48:11The board is threatening to pull out.
00:48:14I'll be there.
00:48:21We need to finish this conversation as soon as I get back.
00:48:24Of course. Business first.
00:48:31Leila.
00:48:32Just go.
00:48:44Sir, there have been complications.
00:48:47Explain.
00:48:48During your absence, Mr. Ethan has been meeting with board members.
00:48:53Suggesting our sudden marriage plans indicate obstacle decision making.
00:48:57Several executors are questioning if someone so personally distracted should hurt the company.
00:49:06the same way and a bit.
00:49:19It's not just a bit.
00:49:22Now let's go.
00:49:22My後 is the only person to do.
00:49:23Good question.
00:49:23My first time is we're back and I'm back and we're back and I'm back and I will go.
00:49:23Mr. Crawford, we've been discussing my personal lives.
00:49:26Your sudden access has let me be very clear.
00:49:31But guys, let me be very clear.
00:49:34How are you going to get the number of those people?
00:49:35This company took a 40% profit loss before I took over.
00:49:40Within three years, I tripled our market share.
00:49:43Every major merger, every successful acquisition, every stock surge, my execution, my strategies.
00:49:51So yes, I am getting married, and yes, I took some time off, and no, not a single person
00:49:59in this room has the right to question my commitment or my capability.
00:50:04Because without me, there's going to be a company left to me.
00:50:13Now, shall we discuss the merger?
00:50:58What the hell were you thinking at the board meeting yesterday?
00:51:01I was doing my job.
00:51:03Your job is to follow the family strategy.
00:51:07Ever since she came into your life, you've been undermining everything we've built.
00:51:14You leave Lila out of this.
00:51:16You know, I don't have to stand here and listen to this.
00:51:19Yeah, run along. Adults are talking business now.
00:51:24We just need to bore him for a moment, dear.
00:51:26Business matters.
00:51:27You wouldn't understand.
00:51:35That girl is a poison to the Crawford name.
00:51:44She's nothing but a broodmare.
00:51:47After she delivers, pay her off and be done with it.
00:51:53Adrian needs someone who understands this world.
00:51:56Someone like me.
00:51:59Vivian is joining Crawford Industries tomorrow.
00:52:03Non-negotiable.
00:52:04She will follow you every day, just like before.
00:52:08And your little pet project can't stay home and gestate.
00:52:12That's all she's good for.
00:52:15Get out! Both of you!
00:52:18How dare you?
00:52:19If you dare mention my wife's name again.
00:52:21I will burn Crawford Industries to the ground before either of you get to touch it.
00:52:26Adrian, be reasonable.
00:52:28She is worth a thousand of you.
00:52:32Tomorrow, 9am, Vivian starts. No discussion.
00:52:38Is that all?
00:52:39Yes, for now.
00:52:41But don't disappoint me again.
00:53:18Stop it. Stop checking.
00:53:22This is ridiculous.
00:53:25I was independent before.
00:53:28I don't need a man to make me breakfast in bed and to hold me whilst I sleep.
00:53:35No!
00:53:36I'm not going to be that girl.
00:53:41I can make my own meals.
00:53:43I don't need his perfectly prepared little plates or his nutritional spreadsheets.
00:53:52I'm approved, Mara.
00:53:56Way to get back at Ethan.
00:54:02Philo!
00:54:03I'm fine!
00:54:05You're not fine. Hospital, now!
00:54:07I'm fine!
00:54:22Thanks.
00:54:23I know we've had our differences, but I really appreciated you today.
00:54:29You know, you used to look at me like that.
00:54:34All sweet. Sincere.
00:54:36Don't.
00:54:38Why not?
00:54:39Is there really no chance for us?
00:54:41Ethan!
00:54:44Lila, he's just using you.
00:54:47You're his revenge against me.
00:54:49A tool.
00:54:50And you deserve better than that.
00:54:54Adrian, stop!
00:54:56What are you doing?
00:54:58I'm protecting you.
00:54:59From what?
00:55:00He's helping.
00:55:01He brought me here.
00:55:02My hand was bleeding.
00:55:03So now you're defending him?
00:55:04No, I'm defending the truth.
00:55:07Sometimes...
00:55:07I guess people surprise you.
00:55:10I see.
00:55:13Adrian...
00:55:15I'll call the doctor to come.
00:55:20I want a full blood panel.
00:55:22Fetal monitoring.
00:55:23Bring the OB-GYN down immediately.
00:55:25Sir, it's just a minor call.
00:55:27I want a full prenatal check-up.
00:55:29I've already spoken to Dr. Anderson.
00:55:30He's going to be down here in 10 minutes.
00:55:33Always so controlled.
00:55:35Aren't you, Uncle?
00:55:37Some of us actually know how to make Lila happy.
00:55:42Remember our beach dates?
00:55:46How you said I was the most fun.
00:55:49Have you ever had?
00:55:52Thompson.
00:55:53Bring in the catering.
00:55:55The Michelin star one.
00:55:56Lila says she's got a hankering for Australian Wagyu beef.
00:56:00Oh, well done.
00:56:01No sauce.
00:56:02I don't think that I did say...
00:56:05How about when we watched your favorite movie?
00:56:08Pride and Prejudice.
00:56:09BBC adaptation, 1995.
00:56:11She likes to watch it when she's still stressed.
00:56:13Which is why I upgraded our home theater system.
00:56:17To have all the original films from the BBC archive.
00:56:20You did what?
00:56:21Wow!
00:56:25Using money to get to her heart.
00:56:27Huh, Uncle.
00:56:30What?
00:56:32What?
00:56:32What?
00:56:32What?
00:56:33Oh, the Al Starmer's Wings fully renovated.
00:56:35Named after Lila's grandmother.
00:56:37As she mentioned.
00:56:38Oh, it's a fully funded.
00:56:41Anonymous donor.
00:56:47He may be able to offer you money, but you're gonna miss this.
00:57:04Is this normal rich people behavior?
00:57:07Try to smile or not.
00:57:10I've already ordered the prenatal vitamins.
00:57:12They should arrive shortly.
00:57:13They're custom formulated to her blood and genetic profile.
00:57:17Wow.
00:57:18You remembered all that about me.
00:57:20I remember everything about you.
00:57:25Maybe you should come back when there's less testosterone in the air.
00:57:31Guys, she's tired. We should leave. Let her rest.
00:57:43Is this just another competition, Ethan?
00:57:46Or does he actually care?
00:58:04Yes, Father?
00:58:06Vivian's been hospitalized.
00:58:08Overwork, they say, from cleaning up your company's mess.
00:58:13I have meetings.
00:58:14Cancel them!
00:58:15Go to visit her right now.
00:58:18Either you show proper respect to the woman I chose for you,
00:58:22or else I will have to call an emergency board meeting.
00:58:42You came.
00:58:46Let's skip the performance, Vivian.
00:58:50Still so cold.
00:58:52Don't you remember when you used to bring me soup when I was unwell?
00:58:56That was a long time ago.
00:58:58We were really great together, Adrian.
00:59:01We could be together again.
00:59:03I don't know what game you're playing at, but it won't work.
00:59:06What we had...
00:59:08I never took it as seriously as you pretended to.
00:59:12But Lila?
00:59:13She's different.
00:59:14She's real.
00:59:16A pregnant gold digger is real?
00:59:18No.
00:59:19Please.
00:59:25Well, I guess some things never change.
00:59:32Watch your words.
00:59:34Stay away from my wife.
00:59:45My little girl.
00:59:47Daddy.
00:59:50Your hand.
00:59:52It's nothing.
00:59:54I need to tell you something.
00:59:57I'm gonna be a mother.
01:00:00Is it that Ethan boys?
01:00:01No, no.
01:00:03Then who?
01:00:04It doesn't matter.
01:00:05But what does matter is that this is my baby.
01:00:09And I'm gonna love them so much.
01:00:12With all the love that you gave me.
01:00:16Baby.
01:00:18I'm so sorry.
01:00:20I'm sorry I couldn't...
01:00:22Couldn't give you better.
01:00:24Daddy.
01:00:25If only I were healthy, if I could work.
01:00:27Daddy, don't.
01:00:28Yeah.
01:00:30But the hospital bills, what are you getting money for?
01:00:34Don't tell me you sold yourself to some men.
01:00:37No, no. It's not like that.
01:00:39Did someone take advantage of you?
01:00:41My little girl pregnant all alone?
01:00:44She's not alone.
01:00:49Hi, Mr. Reid. I'm Adrian Crawford.
01:00:55I'm the father of her child.
01:00:57Adrian.
01:00:59I'm not just the father.
01:01:00I'm the man who's gonna spend the rest of his life making sure your daughter and our child get everything
01:01:05they deserve.
01:01:06Pretty words from a rich man.
01:01:09Not words. Facts.
01:01:11I've already arranged a transfer to a private medical facility.
01:01:14Full treatment plan, best specialists.
01:01:17Adrian.
01:01:17Adrian.
01:01:18And I promise you this.
01:01:21Every morning, she's gonna wake up knowing that she is cherished.
01:01:25Every decision I make, every step I take will be to ensure her happiness.
01:01:30You really mean that, don't you?
01:01:32Yes, sir, I do.
01:01:36Well...
01:01:38Maybe...
01:01:39I can stop worrying now.
01:01:49For...
01:01:50What you said in there.
01:01:51I know you were just trying to make my father feel better.
01:01:54No, no, no, no.
01:01:55I wasn't just doing anything.
01:01:57Every word I said in there is true.
01:02:00Adrian.
01:02:06Laila, I need to tell you something.
01:02:09I've been falling for you ever since you crashed into my office with that ridiculous donor questionnaire.
01:02:14Yes, we had a contract, but...
01:02:17I realized...
01:02:19You've become everything to me.
01:02:21You're not my surrogate.
01:02:24You're not my convenient fiancé.
01:02:29You're my partner.
01:02:31If you have me.
01:02:35But what about Ethan and Vivian?
01:02:38What about them?
01:02:42Aren't you trying to just get revenge on Ethan and...
01:02:45Revenge?
01:02:46I never loved Vivian.
01:02:48And Ethan, he's not worth his second thought.
01:02:50Really?
01:02:52Then who was the guy I saw competing with Ethan?
01:02:59That was...
01:03:03I was jealous, okay?
01:03:06I thought of you with him.
01:03:08Wow.
01:03:10The great Mr. Crawford.
01:03:12Jealous.
01:03:13Don't mention that.
01:03:14I have a reputation to maintain.
01:03:29I'm not letting you go.
01:03:32Not ever.
01:03:41Surrogacy.
01:03:42Contract of marriage?
01:03:44Oh this is too perfect.
01:03:48Oh this is too perfect.
01:03:55I missed it.
01:03:57I need to get back.
01:04:21Whiskey. Neat.
01:04:25What's so urgent?
01:04:26I know something about your little ex-girlfriend that might interest you.
01:04:30Is this about her and my uncle?
01:04:32It's about how she really got pregnant.
01:04:35Your perfect uncle?
01:04:37He hired her.
01:04:39She's just a surrogate.
01:04:41Their whole engagement is a lie.
01:04:44A contract.
01:04:48The board would love to hear about this.
01:04:52Next week's family meeting.
01:04:55We'll reveal everything.
01:04:57Until then, let's gather more evidence.
01:05:01And once he's ruined...
01:05:03I'll comfort him.
01:05:05Help him rebuild.
01:05:06He'll remember who he truly belongs with.
01:05:13And Lila?
01:05:15Well, once the truth's out, she'll be worthless to him.
01:05:18You can have your little toy back.
01:05:22Cheers.
01:05:40Ethan's in meetings all afternoon.
01:05:42That's okay.
01:05:43I don't mind waiting.
01:05:45These documents require his immediate attention.
01:05:52Would you mind getting me some tea, dear?
01:06:00Sorry to see agreements.
01:06:02No contracts.
01:06:05Come on.
01:06:07The train's always so organized.
01:06:10Where is everything?
01:06:11The train's always so organized.
01:06:19It's just a stupid cat.
01:06:31Are you okay?
01:06:34You're a beast!
01:06:36Attack me!
01:06:37I need your bathroom.
01:06:40Now!
01:06:48Atrian!
01:06:50I've been waiting for you.
01:06:56You know, if you need an heir, we could make one.
01:07:01Right here.
01:07:03Right now.
01:07:06Lila doesn't have to know.
01:07:08She's already asleep.
01:07:11It could just be our little secret.
01:07:16Here.
01:07:17In the living room.
01:07:21Wherever you want.
01:07:23Someone may see us.
01:07:24Are you scared?
01:07:30I know somewhere more.
01:07:32Rabbit.
01:07:40Where are we going?
01:07:42Can't risk being interrupted, can we?
01:07:45Ladies first.
01:07:51Enjoy the fresh air.
01:07:53Adrian!
01:07:54Adrian!
01:07:55You can't do this to me!
01:07:57I'm a Crawford executor!
01:08:04Stop filming me!
01:08:06This is harassment!
01:08:07I will sue you!
01:08:08I will sue you so hard!
01:08:13Adrian!
01:08:14Adrian!
01:08:15Adrian, let me in!
01:08:23Everyone, this crisis could have destroyed us, but thanks to your tireless efforts, Crawford
01:08:31is stronger than ever.
01:08:33To the best team in the business!
01:08:35Yeah!
01:08:36Thank you!
01:08:39Though, speaking of tonight's celebration, there's something you all should be prepared for.
01:08:46For what?
01:08:48My uncle is bringing his fiancée tonight.
01:08:52The thing is, her and I were together until very recently.
01:08:59I know, I know, I know.
01:09:02But please, when they arrive, act normal.
01:09:06I couldn't bear any drama.
01:09:08She left you for your uncle?
01:09:10Well, these things happen.
01:09:16Everyone, I'd like to introduce you to my fiancée, Lila Reid.
01:09:20Hello, everybody.
01:09:21It's lovely to meet you all.
01:09:23I need to check some numbers.
01:09:27Did I do something wrong?
01:09:37How are you feeling?
01:09:39Is the morning sickness over yet?
01:09:41I'm fine.
01:09:43You know, I've been worried.
01:09:46All this stress can't be good for the baby.
01:09:50Which hospital are you using?
01:09:52I could drive you next time.
01:09:54That's not necessary.
01:09:57Come on.
01:09:58We used to tell each other everything.
01:10:01Just want to make sure you're getting the proper care.
01:10:03If I know her hospital, then I can get her surrogate history.
01:10:07How thoughtful.
01:10:09But Adrian handles all my appointments personally.
01:10:13The real hero of the hour.
01:10:15Whoa!
01:10:20Beautiful, isn't she?
01:10:23The type of woman who belongs in Adrian's world.
01:10:27Excuse me.
01:10:29You know how my uncle thinks.
01:10:32Like a chess master.
01:10:34Every piece has its use.
01:10:36Some for business.
01:10:39Others for...
01:10:40You don't know him.
01:10:42Oh.
01:10:43But I do.
01:10:45Adrian Crawford cares exactly about one person.
01:10:48Adrian Crawford.
01:10:50He sees people as investments.
01:10:52Vivian?
01:10:53Perfect for managing the company.
01:10:56You?
01:10:57Well, I think we both know what your role is.
01:11:04He's wrong.
01:11:05He has to be wrong.
01:11:24Everyone in this world has their place.
01:11:27Their purpose.
01:11:30Maybe it's time I found mine again.
01:11:53Baby, when's the last time you ate something?
01:11:56I don't know.
01:11:58Breakfast?
01:11:59Yesterday's breakfast.
01:12:04That's enough for today.
01:12:06Okay.
01:12:10The prenatal instructor said this exercise should help.
01:12:14Okay.
01:12:15Like this?
01:12:17Uh, almost.
01:12:27Um, I think I need a little more instruction.
01:12:32Um, I think I need a little more instruction.
01:12:54Everything looks perfect.
01:12:56Everything looks perfect.
01:12:56The baby's development's right on track.
01:12:58Really?
01:13:00Really.
01:13:01Now that you're in the stable period,
01:13:04intimate relations is perfectly safe,
01:13:06as long as you're gentle.
01:13:08Just listen to your bodies and...
01:13:11Yes, thank you, Doctor.
01:13:18Let everything reveal.
01:13:31Dr. Anderson.
01:13:40Let's talk about Adrian Crawford's arrangement.
01:13:45Was it a surrogacy contract?
01:13:50Mr. Harrington.
01:13:52Dr. Patient Confidentiality.
01:13:54Hmm.
01:13:55I hear that the new hospital complex is looking for department heads.
01:14:01Wouldn't it be a shame if your name was mysteriously removed from the list?
01:14:13Now, about those hospital records.
01:14:35Oh, my God.
01:14:36Oh, my God.
01:14:41Surrogacy.
01:14:43Surrogacy.
01:14:44Five generations of Crawford dignity destroyed by tabloid gossip.
01:14:51I knew that girl was hiding something.
01:14:57Did you?
01:14:58Did you really pay some nobody to carry your heir?
01:15:02Tell me it isn't true.
01:15:05Oh, my God.
01:15:07Oh, my God.
01:15:12You...
01:15:13It's your doing.
01:15:16I...
01:15:16Adrian.
01:15:20I need to discuss something with you.
01:15:22Privately.
01:15:28Adrian.
01:15:29I can make all of this disappear.
01:15:32All you have to do is remember who you really belong with.
01:15:35Who I belong with.
01:15:36We were good together.
01:15:38We can't be again.
01:15:40Give me the position I deserve.
01:15:43As Mrs. Crawford by your side.
01:15:46I do need your help.
01:15:48Please, never show up again.
01:16:05I won't let them hurt you.
01:16:08It's not me I'm worried about.
01:16:10If they expose the truth about our arrangement, you could lose everything.
01:16:17Nothing's more important than you and our child.
01:16:38This emergency family meeting will come to order.
01:16:42I have proof.
01:16:44Miss Reed is not Adrian's loving bride-to-be.
01:16:49She's just a surrogate.
01:16:51Paid to carry the Crawford heir.
01:16:56I have proof too.
01:16:59Medical records from Crawford Medical Center showing that Miss Reed underwent fertility treatment.
01:17:04For which she was generously compensated.
01:17:09Paid surrogacy.
01:17:10How common?
01:17:13Alright fine, you want the truth?
01:17:15Yes, it started with a surrogacy.
01:17:19But Lilo, she's the woman I chose to be the mother of my child.
01:17:23And I won't let anyone here slander her.
01:17:27You want this arrangement?
01:17:28Fine.
01:17:31But then, it costs you everything.
01:17:36Resign from the company, give up your inheritance.
01:17:40The child can see in the family.
01:17:42Of course.
01:17:43But the mother, well, her services won't be required after delivery.
01:17:54Yes, I did the IVF treatment.
01:17:57But I never, never saw this baby as a business transaction.
01:18:06You know what?
01:18:07You can say whatever you want about me.
01:18:09But don't you dare question my love for this child.
01:18:28I'm willing to give up everything.
01:18:30The company, the inheritance, all of it.
01:18:33But I won't give up her.
01:18:37She's my wife.
01:18:38The only one that I will ever want.
01:18:41She's my wife.
01:18:42We're getting married.
01:18:43Properly.
01:18:44Publicly.
01:18:47Fine.
01:18:49You want to throw away everything for this, for this woman.
01:18:54Then, you will get nothing from this family.
01:18:58Nothing!
01:18:58Hey!
01:18:59Sign it.
01:19:00Renounce your inheritance.
01:19:02All of it.
01:19:06No, no, no, no, no.
01:19:08Adrian, stop.
01:19:09Not worth losing everything for.
01:19:11You're worth everything.
01:19:15The company, the assets, I built them once.
01:19:18I can build them again.
01:19:20But you.
01:19:22You and our child, you're our real future.
01:19:30Still time to think it over, son.
01:19:40Let's go.
01:20:01Thanks.
01:20:04You've been at this for hours.
01:20:07I just gotta finish this last chapter.
01:20:13I'll get you some food.
01:20:24What do you mean you're cancelling the contract?
01:20:27We've worked together for 10 years.
01:20:32No, no, no.
01:20:33Don't call Adrian.
01:20:35Hello?
01:20:36Hello?
01:20:37Hello?
01:20:38The Singapore merger just collapsed.
01:20:40They say they'll only work with Adrian.
01:20:42This is all your fault.
01:20:43You and your billionaire plan to get rid of her.
01:20:46My fault.
01:20:46You're the one who can't handle basic accounting.
01:20:49Enough.
01:20:51The board meeting starts in five minutes.
01:20:53Please tell me you have good news.
01:21:04Oh my god.
01:21:06This story sounds exactly like the powerful scandal.
01:21:09Wait.
01:21:09Is this about the Adrian Crawford?
01:21:14The billionaire CEO giving up everything for love.
01:21:17I'm crying.
01:21:23I think I just went viral.
01:21:26I figured out stories about us.
01:21:29Look.
01:21:30Should I be concerned about what else you've revealed about me?
01:21:49Have you seen the comments?
01:21:51They're calling us heartless villains.
01:21:54I can't believe they're trying to suppress on true love businesses.
01:21:59Crawford Industries lost my business.
01:22:01Team Adrian all the way.
01:22:04Yes, Penguin Publishing.
01:22:06Um, sorry.
01:22:07I actually have Random House on the other line, so I'm gonna have to...
01:22:15call you right back.
01:22:17Okay, thank you.
01:22:18The movie rights.
01:22:20What?
01:22:21Oh my god.
01:22:21My wife is so popular now.
01:22:23I know.
01:22:28Your father?
01:22:33Son.
01:22:35The board wants you back.
01:22:37Take your position.
01:22:38Your inheritance.
01:22:40I'll have to ask my wife.
01:22:43What do you think, Mrs. Crawford?
01:22:50The first order of business.
01:22:51First order of business.
01:22:51Starting without me.
01:22:53Perfect timing.
01:22:55I'm announcing your termination.
01:22:57You can't fire me.
01:22:59I'm a shareholder and a senior executive.
01:23:02The company crisis last month wasn't an accident.
01:23:06You and Ethan deliberately sabotaged our deals.
01:23:09You can't prove any free email, every call, every secret meeting without competitors.
01:23:16I'll document it.
01:23:17Lawsuit's already been filed.
01:23:19You and Ethan will be hearing from our lawyers.
01:23:31Oh my god, yeah.
01:23:39Adrian, I uh, I think my water just broke.
01:23:43Yeah, come home.
01:23:48Mr. Crawford, the vote for new director.
01:23:56For her, he'd drop everything.
01:24:00Including a multi-billion dollar.
01:24:11Before we vote, there is something you should know.
01:24:15Adrian and Lila were legally married two months ago.
01:24:21And they have my full blessing.
01:24:37Both my girls still awake?
01:24:45I'm just finishing.
01:24:53I'm just finishing.
01:24:54God bless.
01:24:56I'm just kidding.
01:25:00I will just drag you to the camera.
01:25:02Just to make it.
