00:08:31who brought her here
00:08:32the Veyron family has never been this embarrassed
00:08:42I'm sorry I
00:08:43you're not the one who owes an apology
00:08:48it's her first time at an event like this
00:08:50she's probably just nervous
00:08:51apologize to her
00:08:55I didn't see her train
00:08:57it was an accident
00:08:59Virella is not apologizing to an outsider
00:09:02she's not an outsider
00:09:04she is my wife
00:09:06Avery and Solnay
00:09:10that's impossible
00:09:11we're legally married
00:09:13anyone marrying into the Veyron family
00:09:15should bring something to the table
00:09:17a degree

00:09:38didn't marry a wife
00:09:39he married a maid
00:09:41there's nothing shameful about working for a living
00:09:45Cassian
00:09:45you only married her to get back at me
00:09:47if I were the kind of man who married just anyone
00:09:51you might be the one standing here tonight
00:09:55but I am not
00:09:56Averyn is the only woman I'll ever call my wife

00:14:02I thought you were actually good
00:14:04is this all you can do?
00:14:06maybe making pitchbacks isn't her real talent
00:14:09who knows which executive she slept with to get hired

00:14:46this is actually good
00:14:48if she stays
00:14:50she'll be a real threat
00:14:51it's still pretty rough
00:14:52I'll submit it for you
00:15:00why?
00:15:03I did
00:15:04stay in your lane
00:15:05you couldn't even finish your degree

00:15:38I thought you said it was too rough
00:15:40I wouldn't want to embarrass Luminarch
00:15:49after everything she did to you
00:15:50why'd you still give her the full deck?
00:15:52I wasn't helping her
00:15:54the client and the team shouldn't have to pay for her screw up
00:15:58class act
00:15:59I would have let her crash and burn
00:16:05Cassiam?
00:16:06how'd the pitch go?
00:16:08great
00:16:10my manager loved it
00:16:12no one gave you a hard time?
00:16:14I'm still at work
00:16:15we'll talk later
00:16:25the first concept
00:16:27the family reunion idea
00:16:31stop
00:16:32we can all read
00:16:33I need the idea
00:16:34not an audio book
00:16:36why would a family reunion concept appeal to younger consumers?
00:16:40because
00:16:45did you actually create this pitch?
00:16:48of course
00:16:49I did
00:16:50then stop reading from the screen
00:16:52and explain the core strategy
00:16:56the team developed it together
00:16:58then bring in everyone who worked on it
00:17:00the person who actually created it already left
00:17:05theå“¡
00:17:07Dymrialk?
00:17:08you asked for me?
00:17:14is something wrong with the pitch?
00:17:16did you call her in?
00:17:18not me
00:17:20you put this pitch together?
00:17:24I did
00:17:25Good. Walk me through it.
00:17:43Now I see what the concept is doing.
00:17:52Don't get too comfortable.
00:17:54This is just the beginning.
00:18:08I'm leaving.
00:18:09I dropped everything!
00:18:10And rushed over to Lumenarch to review that pitch for you!
00:18:13I went out of my way for that woman!
00:18:16My wife made dinner.
00:18:21He really found the girl who saved him 17 years ago?
00:18:26You're back already?
00:18:30You.
00:18:39Here for Cassiam? He's not home yet.
00:18:42One million dollars.
00:18:44Leave Cassius and get out of Edivon for good.
00:18:48And here I thought you loved Cassius.
00:18:51Turns out he's only worth a million to you.
00:18:54Not enough for you?
00:18:56Are you insulting him or is your love really that cheap?
00:19:02A gold digger from Rookhaven. I knew money was all you cared about.
00:19:06More than enough to keep you comfortable for the rest of your life.
00:19:09My marriage isn't for sale.
00:19:11And even if I walked away, Cassian would never choose you.
00:19:14Shut up!
00:19:21That was for my dress.
00:19:23And that was for what you did to me.
00:19:39What are you doing?
00:19:42I'll pay you anything you want!
00:19:44Just stop playing with Cassiel's feelings!
00:19:48What happened here?
00:19:52I offered her a million dollars to leave you.
00:19:55She said it wasn't enough, then slapped me twice!
00:19:59Someone had to teach you some manners.
00:20:02And here I thought you loved Cassius.
00:20:04Turns out he's only worth a million to you.
00:20:08You heard her.
00:20:09A million wasn't enough.
00:20:14Get out.
00:20:16Cassiel- Now.
00:20:26What am I worth to you?
00:20:30You actually believe her?
00:20:33You married me for $500,000.
00:20:36So how much would it take to get you into my bed?
00:20:46You bastard!
00:20:56Don't touch me.
00:20:58I'm sorry.
00:21:14I'm sorry.
00:21:17Who's the client today?
00:21:19A Rice's director and the guy Nareel has been chasing for years.
00:21:23Cut the gossip.
00:21:25This is Sorel Vane, our new strategic client.
00:21:30Avery and Solne?
00:21:32Sorel?
00:21:32Is that really you?
00:21:35Don't flirt with the client.
00:21:37We're in a meeting.
00:21:39I haven't seen you since you left school.
00:21:41It's been six years.
00:21:43Want to grab coffee after work and catch up?
00:21:45Why don't we grab drinks instead?
00:21:47Maybe next time.
00:21:48I've been chasing him for years.
00:21:50I'm not letting you take him from me.
00:21:53Six o'clock.
00:21:54I'll pick you up.
00:21:55Okay.
00:22:10Why don't you watch where you're going?
00:22:20Narissi?
00:22:22Aren't you tired of pulling this crap?
00:22:24What do you mean?
00:22:26You think I did it on purpose?
00:22:28If we'd actually bumped into each other, the coffee would have splashed on both of us.
00:22:34But there's not even a drop on you.
00:22:37You didn't spill it, you threw it at me.
00:22:39She's right.
00:22:40Narissi doesn't have a drop on her.
00:22:42Yeah. I did it on purpose.
00:22:44You want an apology? Keep dreaming.
00:22:49Keep your apology. Pay for my blouse.
00:22:54Are you seriously trying to shake me down?
00:23:04That cheap clearance rack blouse isn't even worth a hundred bucks. I'm being generous.
00:23:10Pick it up. It's yours.
00:23:13I changed my mind.
00:23:16You don't owe me a thing.
00:23:22It's so hot. Are you insane?
00:23:31Now we're even.
00:23:33This isn't over, Averin!
00:23:38My wife's outfit is ruined. Handle it.
00:23:46Excuse me? Which one of you is Miss Averin Solne?
00:23:55That's me.
00:24:01Here's our latest couture collection. Pick any gown for today.
00:24:04This collection hasn't even been released yet.
00:24:07That gown? There are only three in the entire world. The brand's website literally says it's not for sale.
00:24:13You must have the wrong person. She could never afford any of this.
00:24:16These are way too expensive. I can't accept them. Please take them back.
00:24:21Mr. Cassiel has already paid for the entire collection.
00:24:28Cassiel?
00:24:30Cassiel, what are you up to?
00:24:37Oh my god! You look like you just stepped off the red carpet.
00:24:41So you really do have a sugar daddy?
00:24:44Married man's mistress? Hidden away? Bought whatever you want?
00:24:49That's right. I'm the one keeping her.
00:24:58What are you doing here?
00:25:01My company has business here.
00:25:03Sugar dad? No more hiding mistresses?
00:25:05Last I checked, a husband buying clothes for his wife isn't a crime.
00:25:13Husband? You're married?
00:25:15My wife is talented. A wealthy husband would bring worse than coffee and ruin Dex.
00:25:21Isn't that right, my wife?
00:25:24Right.
00:25:25Averyn just joined the team. Thank you for making her feel welcome.
00:25:35A $5,000 gift card?
00:25:41Where's mine?
00:25:42I'm only thanking the people who actually helped her.
00:25:47Husband. Outside. Now.
00:25:54What exactly are you trying to do?
00:25:57Apologize. I crossed a line last night.
00:26:00Then just apologize. Why blow all that money?
00:26:04Worried about me?
00:26:05I'm worried about the money. You can go now.
00:26:08We'll leave together. You're already off work.
00:26:13I'm... I'm meeting someone.
00:26:16A man or a woman.
00:26:18Averyn.
00:26:21And you are?
00:26:23Pretty close, aren't you?
00:26:25Sorrel Vane. An old college friend of Averyn's.
00:26:30Old college friend is a tired excuse for asking out another man's wife.
00:26:34Wife?
00:26:36Tell them who I am.
00:26:37We're just getting coffee. Go home. I'll be back soon.
00:26:40You're not going.
00:26:42You just said you wouldn't use the agreement to control me anymore.
00:26:44This isn't about the agreement.
00:26:46Then you have even less say in it.
00:26:53Cassiel, have you lost your mind? Put me down!
00:27:00Cassiel, put me down!
00:27:07Move! I'm getting out!
00:27:12I'm getting out!
00:27:13Clearly, you didn't read the agreement carefully enough.
00:27:15What clause is it this time?
00:27:17No public dates with others during our marriage.
00:27:19One breach extends the agreement by 30 days.
00:27:22We were just getting coffee!
00:27:27The flowers tell a different story.
00:27:29Did I sign a marriage agreement?
00:27:31Or did I sell you my time and my freedom?
00:27:34I'm done!
00:27:36You want to go? Fine.
00:27:39Take off everything I bought you.
00:27:42Then go see him.
00:27:48Averyn? Averyn, are you okay?
00:27:50Do you need me to call 911?
00:27:54You know what to say.
00:27:56Averyn, are you sure you're okay?
00:27:59I'm fine. He's my husband.
00:28:03We'll get coffee another time.
00:28:05Okay.
00:28:18Eat before you go.
00:28:20Not hungry.
00:28:22Why aren't you wearing the clothes I bought you?
00:28:24Didn't dare to.
00:28:25What is that against the agreement too?
00:28:44I knew you'd come back!
00:28:46You told me to come by this morning with an update.
00:28:49It's Averyn's birthday tonight.
00:28:51The private chef and rooftop dinner are all set.
00:28:53Who said I was celebrating her birthday?
00:28:57You did.
00:28:58A month ago.
00:29:02Happy birthday, Averyn.
00:29:04Sorrel.
00:29:09Sorrel sent you flowers?
00:29:12Jealous?
00:29:13Ask him to send you some too.
00:29:20She skipped breakfast.
00:29:22Leave this on her desk.
00:29:31Who did this?
00:29:46Who did this?
00:29:50Looks like someone's going after Averin again.
00:29:53Averin is being targeted again.
00:29:55Who?
00:29:57Narice.
00:29:58Suspend her pending investigation and have her publicly apologize to Averin.
00:30:02She stomped on the birthday roses Sorrel sent Averin.
00:30:06Who sent them?
00:30:09Sorrel, her old college friend.
00:30:16Averin.
00:30:18Personal flower deliveries during office hours disrupt the workplace.
00:30:22Send Averin the handbook to review the personal delivery policy.
00:30:26Understood.
00:30:28Wait, are the flowers for tonight ready?
00:30:30500 long stem red roses, ten times the size of Sorrel's bouquet.
00:30:34Good.
00:30:43He looks like he walks straight out of a cologne ad.
00:30:46Sports car, flowers, hot guy, rom-com opening.
00:30:55Averin!
00:30:56Over here!
00:31:01Happy birthday, birthday girl.
00:31:03That guy from yesterday, he's really your husband?
00:31:08How did you end up marrying a walking red flag?
00:31:11Cassian isn't that bad.
00:31:13Sometimes, he can be sweet.
00:31:14Come have a drink with me.
00:31:16Let's celebrate your birthday.
00:31:22Where are you?
00:31:23Are you with Sorrel?
00:31:25The guy who smiles like a Hallmark card?
00:31:28Yes.
00:31:28Be home in ten minutes or I'll extend the marriage agreement by another month.
00:31:32Add as many months as you want.
00:31:34I'll stay married to you for the rest of my life if that's what it takes.
00:31:42Let's go.
00:31:44I need a drink.
00:31:55Find her.
00:31:56Now.
00:31:59Easy birthday girl.
00:32:04If I'm drunk, I won't have to think about him.
00:32:09Want to get a room and lie down for a while?
00:32:21Aurelia, I just saw Averin.
00:32:23She's drunk and alone in a private room with another man.
00:32:26Keep an eye on her.
00:32:27I'm on my way.
00:32:33Get some rest.
00:32:34I'll take you home in the morning.
00:32:36Don't touch me.
00:32:38I'm not done singing.
00:32:43Aurelia is heading there with security.
00:32:45Find your wife first.
00:32:52Averin.
00:32:55Is that really you?
00:32:57You're the last person I want to see tonight!
00:33:01I'm here to save you.
00:33:04Open bar.
00:33:05Tonight's on me.
00:33:11She told you to leave.
00:33:14What part of that was unclear?
00:33:16She also told you not to touch her.
00:33:23Cassius!
00:33:28I'm taking you to urgent care.
00:33:36My mother's here.
00:33:38Play along.
00:33:44Don't move.
00:33:45She's watching.
00:33:46Mom?
00:33:46You came all this way to celebrate Averin's birthday?
00:33:49That's so thoughtful.
00:33:50Aren't you gonna thank Mom?
00:33:54Thank you, Mom.
00:33:56Virelia, you said she was here cheating on Cassiel?
00:34:01Sorrel had his arm around her just a minute ago.
00:34:03One cropped photo?
00:34:04And you turned it into a whole soap opera?
00:34:07Don't let me see your name in the tabloids.
00:34:11Virelia.
00:34:12Pull another stunt like this, and you'll regret it.
00:34:18And you, don't ever get this drunk again.
00:34:25Mr. Viren, you asked for me?
00:34:28Put her on the do-not-serve list at every property,
00:34:30and if she ever shows up again, milk only.
00:34:34Milk is for children!
00:34:37Perfect, then.
00:34:49Easy.
00:34:50I can walk by myself.
00:34:55Is this...
00:34:57my birthday dinner?
00:35:05Too bad the birthday girl stood me up.
00:35:13Don't throw it away.
00:35:14We can still reheat it.
00:35:16How did you know it was my birthday?
00:35:18Sorrel can remember, but your husband can't.
00:35:24I'm sorry, I didn't know you had all this planned.
00:35:32It's not midnight yet.
00:35:34We can still save the night.
00:35:36Stay and eat with me?
00:35:38No.
00:35:46This is really good.
00:35:48Come on, don't be mad anymore.
00:35:55I crossed a line that night.
00:35:58From now on, I won't touch you without your clear consent.
00:36:03While we're married, neither of us dates anyone else
00:36:05or get physically involved with them.
00:36:08Fine.
00:36:10But you don't get to interrogate me without proof.
00:36:14Deal.
00:36:31Cassiel, maybe you're not so bad after all.
00:36:38Does it still hurt?
00:36:42Much better now.
00:36:47If Cassium makes you unhappy, leave him.
00:36:50We had a conflict, but we worked it out.
00:36:53He hit me yesterday.
00:36:55What makes you think he won't do the same to you?
00:36:57Don't come looking for me alone anymore.
00:36:59I don't want this getting any more complicated.
00:37:01Are you worried I'll get hurt or that he'll get mad?
00:37:07Sorrel, the client review is about to start.
00:37:14She drew a very clear line, crisis averted.
00:37:18I wasn't worried.
00:37:19You moved your office to this floor the second you heard Sorrel was coming in today.
00:37:23I came for coffee.
00:37:29Before we start, I have a compliance question.
00:37:33Is Luminarch's hiring process always this lax?
00:37:37Every employee goes through an HR review, reference checks, and a portfolio appraisement.
00:37:42Even Averian?
00:37:46She dropped out sophomore year and got hired through an executive referral.
00:37:50Her portfolio and performance meet every requirement for the role.
00:37:54So dropping out is the only issue?
00:37:57Because I heard that before Averian's father died, he was wanted statewide for kidnapping and murder.
00:38:07Your father was actually wanted for kidnapping and murder?
00:38:14Yes.
00:38:15My father was a wanted criminal when he died.
00:38:20But unless his case is part of today's agenda, what does any of that have to do with the campaign?
00:38:27Mr. Vane, do you have a problem with my proposal?
00:38:30A serious one.
00:38:31Your family background could be a liability for the brand.
00:38:34Then critique my work.
00:38:35Using my family trauma against me, that's workplace harassment.
00:38:40Are you calling me unprofessional?
00:38:44If the shoe fits.
00:38:46Enough.
00:38:47Let's get back to the client review.
00:38:55She didn't need us to step in after all.
00:38:58She had the courage to save me 17 years ago.
00:39:00I should have known she could handle herself.
00:39:04Invoke the clause in the partnership agreement.
00:39:07Freeze his account.
00:39:09Effective immediately.
00:39:18That's the full proposal.
00:39:20Mr. Vane, do you have any feedback on the work?
00:39:27Perfect timing.
00:39:28Let's hear directly from my boss whether the client is satisfied.
00:39:33I'm in a meeting at Luminar.
00:39:36You publicly harassed an employee during a client meeting?
00:39:41Varen Global has frozen all business with us.
00:39:44You're suspended.
00:39:45Effect immediately.
00:39:46Your company laptop and key card.
00:39:48Hand them over to HR.
00:39:50Then I'll resign.
00:39:51You don't get to resign while you're under investigation.
00:39:54Legals will be in touch.
00:40:01Call the medical team!
00:40:09Sorrell humiliated you in front of everyone,
00:40:11and minutes later, headquarters froze Arreus' contract.
00:40:14That was so fast, you'd think there was an FBI agent planted in this office.
00:40:20See that guy?
00:40:22He looks like...
00:40:24You're overthinking it.
00:40:31You're the reason I got the job at Luminarch, aren't you?
00:40:34I only passed your resume and portfolio along to someone I know.
00:40:37And somehow I got this offer without even interviewing?
00:40:40Luminarch liked your work.
00:40:41A referral doesn't guarantee a job.
00:40:53Still, thank you.
00:40:55Averin, let me tell you a story.
00:40:57500 grand isn't enough!
00:40:591 million in cash!
00:41:00Warehouse 17 at the port, 10 o'clock tonight.
00:41:03No cops, or you'll be collecting your son's body.
00:41:08Don't make a sound.
00:41:10I'll get you out.
00:41:19I'm too fat.
00:41:20I can't get through.
00:41:23Don't give up.
00:41:24You won't even try to save yourself.
00:41:25How is anyone else supposed to save you?
00:41:30What the hell are you doing?
00:41:36Run!
00:41:38Do it.
00:41:41Don't look back!
00:41:43Don't look back!
00:41:44When the boy came back with the police, the girl and the kidnapper were gone.
00:41:48All they found was a blood-stained shirt.
00:41:51Everyone said she was dead.
00:41:53But he refused to believe it.
00:41:55He swore he'd find her and spend the rest of his life protecting her.
00:41:59Did he ever find her?
00:42:03He did.
00:42:04That's good.
00:42:05But what does any of this have to do with us?
00:42:09You really don't remember?
00:42:10So that's why he told me the story.
00:42:12He wants me to remember that I owe him.
00:42:14I remember.
00:42:15I'll never forget what you did for me tonight.
00:42:19Mom?
00:42:20Fabrian, you got the wrong man.
00:42:22The foul line just called.
00:42:24Braxton never even went into the cafe that day.
00:42:26What?
00:42:26Cassiel wasn't the man you were supposed to meet.
00:42:29He's been lying to you from the start!
00:42:35If something was a mistake from the very beginning, would you fix it?
00:42:39Or keep going?
00:42:41Cut your losses.
00:42:42No businessman keeps investing in a mistake.
00:42:45Just as I thought.
00:42:47Once he finds out the truth, he'll end this marriage.
00:42:51What's wrong?
00:42:52Nothing.
00:42:53I was just wondering.
00:42:54I'm going to change.
00:42:58Haven't I always wanted to leave him?
00:43:00So why can't I say it now that I finally have the chance?
00:43:07Why does he keep showing up at Luminarch lately?
00:43:12The 30th floor?
00:43:14That's the executive floor!
00:43:26Mr. Baron, your coffee.
00:43:34The manufacturing partnership has been approved.
00:43:36It's a pleasure doing business with you.
00:43:39Likewise.
00:43:40So he really is here for a business meeting.
00:43:43Ms. Solnay?
00:43:47The executive floor is by appointment only.
00:43:50What are you doing up here?
00:43:58Averian?
00:43:59What are you doing here?
00:44:02Everything's fine.
00:44:03You can go.
00:44:04Mr. Baron, this acquisition authorization needs your signature.
00:44:08The Luminarch partnership agreement was approved that quickly?
00:44:12Partnership agreement?
00:44:13This is clearly...
00:44:15Is something wrong with your eye?
00:44:16Should I call a doctor?
00:44:18Leave the document.
00:44:19You can go.
00:44:23And who might this be?
00:44:24My wife, Averin.
00:44:26Averin, this is Murrin.
00:44:27He's overseeing the project.
00:44:29So you're the one who hired me?
00:44:31Cassiel referred you.
00:44:32Your portfolio got you the job.
00:44:33Keep up the good work.
00:44:35I will.
00:44:36Meeting's over.
00:44:37I'm heading out.
00:44:39Drive safe.
00:44:44Follow that black sedan.
00:44:45Keep your distance.
00:44:50She's following me.
00:44:52Tell the factory to stick to the cover story.
00:44:53I'll handle it.
00:44:54So this is his company.
00:44:56It really is pretty small.
00:44:59The way his mother acted, I thought the Varens owned half the city.
00:45:03Maybe it's better they're not some powerful family.
00:45:06At least I'm not out of his league.
00:45:07We're not even a real couple.
00:45:09Why am I relieved?
00:45:10Ma'am, this is a restricted area.
00:45:12I need to see some ID.
00:45:14Trying to run?
00:45:14You here to steal something?
00:45:16Oh no.
00:45:17I've been caught red-handed.
00:45:22What?
00:45:22I'm not allowed to come check out a handsome guy?
00:45:24Let her go.
00:45:27She's my wife.
00:45:29I'm sorry, Mrs. Varen.
00:45:30I didn't know.
00:45:32So you followed me all the way here?
00:45:33Just to see some handsome guy?
00:45:35A wife has a right to know what her husband does for a living.
00:45:38Now you know.
00:45:39Happy?
00:45:41It's fine.
00:45:42I mean, I've seen enough.
00:45:43I'm leaving.
00:45:45Sorrel?
00:45:48Just my luck.
00:45:49What are you doing here?
00:45:50Because of you, Aurorius fired me.
00:45:52Now I'm stuck interviewing at some tiny factory.
00:45:56Show some respect.
00:45:57If this place is beneath you, the interview is over.
00:45:59That's not what I meant.
00:46:01I really need this job.
00:46:04Mr. Varen, you own the company.
00:46:06It's your call.
00:46:07Averin, I thought you married someone important.
00:46:10Turns out he just owns a little factory.
00:46:12That's right.
00:46:13My husband runs a small business.
00:46:15And right now, you're the one begging him for a job.
00:46:18Stay out of this!
00:46:20You're trying to put your hands on my wife, in my place?
00:46:23Think very carefully about what happens next.
00:46:26Show him out.
00:46:29You'll both regret this!
00:46:30This isn't over!
00:46:32Why do I care so much when someone looks down on Cassiel?
00:46:35Am I really falling for him?
00:46:38What did you just call me?
00:46:40What?
00:46:41Say it again.
00:46:43Call me your husband.
00:46:45I was just backing you up.
00:46:46Don't read into it!
00:46:54Perfect timing.
00:46:55Wash up.
00:46:56Dinner's ready.
00:47:00I'll get it.
00:47:04What are you doing here again?
00:47:06None of your business.
00:47:09Cassiel, I misjudged Averin last time.
00:47:12I brought your favorite chowder as an apology.
00:47:14My birthday party is next Saturday.
00:47:16I'd love for you to come.
00:47:17I'm not the one you owe an apology to.
00:47:21Averin, can you forgive me?
00:47:23Of course.
00:47:28You're forgiven.
00:47:29There's the door.
00:47:30I'm not leaving until you agree to come to my birthday party.
00:47:36Of course we'll come.
00:47:38Honey, what should we get her?
00:47:40Whatever my wife says goes.
00:47:46See you next Saturday.
00:47:51What's that smile for?
00:47:55I was...
00:47:56I was just helping you get rid of her.
00:48:04Were you jealous just now?
00:48:08I was just playing along to get her out of here.
00:48:16You're not eating?
00:48:18I've lost my appetite.
00:48:27Myers are perfectly fine.
00:48:34Could it really be that I care this much?
00:48:37And him?
00:48:39Does he feel the same way about me?
00:48:46Only six weeks left.
00:48:58You want this marriage to end?
00:49:00It's not that easy.
00:49:02I'll break the agreement on purpose.
00:49:05And drag this marriage out.
00:49:15If I break every single one,
00:49:17I can drag this marriage out
00:49:19for another six and a half years.
00:49:21Perfect.
00:49:22I'll start by ignoring his texts.
00:49:33Did you find her?
00:49:34She left work a while ago.
00:49:36She's not working late.
00:49:38I'm home.
00:49:42Is your phone just for decoration?
00:49:45Uh, I didn't see your message.
00:49:47You ignored my text and came home late.
00:49:50Two violations.
00:49:51That adds two months to our marriage.
00:49:54Really?
00:49:55Then write it down.
00:49:57You're happy about this?
00:49:59Am I?
00:50:04Why'd you punch the wall?
00:50:07I didn't see your hand.
00:50:08Don't touch me.
00:50:10Isn't this exactly what you wanted?
00:50:12I'm sorry.
00:50:13I wasn't trying to upset you.
00:50:15I just wanted more time with you.
00:50:18Two months.
00:50:19You promised.
00:50:20You promised.
00:50:22Hello?
00:50:23Meet some friends with me after work.
00:50:25Can't.
00:50:26I already have plans.
00:50:27Next time, give me more notice.
00:50:32Another month?
00:50:41This is who you had plans with?
00:50:44It's not a person,
00:50:45but it's still my friend.
00:50:48You caught me.
00:50:48So according to the agreement,
00:50:50that's another month.
00:50:51With last night,
00:50:52that makes three months.
00:50:55You can't even bring yourself
00:50:56to say something nice to me anymore?
00:50:59You wouldn't believe me anyway.
00:51:01Fine.
00:51:13Order whatever you want.
00:51:14Drinks are on me tonight.
00:51:15Why not test Averin?
00:51:17See if she actually cares.
00:51:22Finally, a good idea.
00:51:37Her again.
00:51:43Maren, what a coincidence.
00:51:45Could you do me a favor?
00:51:46What?
00:51:48My hair's caught in my necklace clasp.
00:51:50Can you get it loose?
00:51:53Cassian, we're not finished.
00:51:56Had your fun?
00:51:57We're going home.
00:51:59Have your resignation letter on my desk by morning.
00:52:01She grabbed my hand.
00:52:05You let another man touch you
00:52:06just to get a rise out of me?
00:52:07You were all over Viveria first.
00:52:09You deserved it.
00:52:11So what's my punishment?
00:52:12A fine or an early divorce?
00:52:14Then, a fine.
00:52:17So you only came after me for the money?
00:52:19Money's easy.
00:52:20It's the one thing I'll never run out of.
00:52:39After last night, we're more than just a contract couple now.
00:52:43Right?
00:52:53You asked for compensation last night.
00:52:55Is $500,000 enough?
00:52:57This is for me.
00:52:59Is it not enough?
00:53:01It's enough.
00:53:02Thanks, boss.
00:53:13Mom?
00:53:13Averin, something's happened to Orin.
00:53:15Come home right now!
00:53:19You can't keep lying to her!
00:53:21I did it to pay off your debt!
00:53:23What happened to Orin?
00:53:27Sit down.
00:53:28We'll explain everything.
00:53:29You said something happened to Orin.
00:53:31What happened?
00:53:32Actually, this isn't about him.
00:53:35Then who is it about?
00:53:39Averin Solne.
00:53:41We finally meet.
00:53:42Who are you?
00:53:43Braxen Goulder.
00:53:45The man who was supposed to be waiting for you at Table 12 that day.
00:53:50Mr. Braxen, come sit next to Averin.
00:53:56Mom, what exactly are you trying to pull?
00:54:01Is Cassian wealthy?
00:54:03No.
00:54:03He only runs a small factory.
00:54:05I knew it!
00:54:06He played you!
00:54:08Marry Braxen, and Orin's gambling debt gets wiped clean!
00:54:12Sounds like a great deal.
00:54:13Why don't you marry him?
00:54:16Cassian took your real date's place and lied to you this whole time.
00:54:19He has to be after something.
00:54:21I came up with $500,000 to save you.
00:54:24I even married a complete stranger.
00:54:26All I wanted was for you to have my back like you did when we were kids.
00:54:29But now, how are you any different from Mom?
00:54:34$20,000 is everything I have left.
00:54:36I'll transfer it to you later.
00:54:37From today on, your debts are no longer my problem.
00:54:42You're not going anywhere.
00:54:45Orin owes me another $300,000.
00:54:47If he can't pay today, you marry me.
00:54:51You two can leave.
00:54:55You can have any woman you want.
00:54:58Why are you so fascinated on me?
00:55:00I'm not short on women.
00:55:01I'm short of chances to make Cassiel pay.
00:55:04Mr. Veo wants you to stay away from Averin for good.
00:55:07Take the money and get lost.
00:55:09I'll film you begging and screaming under me and send it straight to him myself.
00:55:14You think you can run?
00:55:23I was the one who saved Cassium.
00:55:25And my father was the one who kidnapped him.
00:55:29Casey and I can never be together now.
00:55:32Now it's time to settle the score.
00:55:43Come on.
00:55:45Hit me with the belt.
00:55:50You're serious?
00:55:52Of course.
00:55:53Don't keep me waiting.
00:55:58Like that?
00:56:00That barely counts.
00:56:01Harder.
00:56:02Now?
00:56:06Yes.
00:56:07Just like that.
00:56:08Keep going.
00:56:11Harder!
00:56:12Don't stop!
00:56:16I can't.
00:56:17I'm completely worn out.
00:56:20That's enough for today.
00:56:22We'll continue next time.
00:56:25You may be done.
00:56:27Now I'm just getting started.
00:56:35Braxton, let's talk this out.
00:56:39You had your fun hitting me.
00:56:41Now it's my turn.
00:56:44Wait.
00:56:45Just calm down.
00:56:46No.
00:56:53Get the hell away from her.
00:56:58Perfect timing.
00:57:00Now you can watch her become mine.
00:57:12You didn't really think all I do is sit behind a desk and sign papers, did you?
00:57:18Cassiel, watch out!
00:57:22Get off me!
00:57:24Cassiel, fight me one-on-one if you've got the guts!
00:57:26You weren't asking for a fair fight when you came at me with a knife?
00:57:32Call the police.
00:57:34Illegal confinement, assault with a deadly weapon, and that agreement using marriage to settle a debt.
00:57:39Give them everything.
00:57:41Understood.
00:57:41Contact his casinos and investment partners.
00:57:44Effective today, Veyron Global is cutting all ties with him.
00:57:47Cassiel, you can't do this!
00:57:56Investigate Malees and Orin, too.
00:57:58Give that agreement to the police, and make sure they never get near Averyan again.
00:58:01I'll take care of it.
00:58:04Are you hurt?
00:58:10You've been lying to me this whole time.
00:58:12You weren't the man Vowleen matched me with, and you're definitely not some regular guy running a small business.
00:58:19You went there for me that day, didn't you?
00:58:23Yes.
00:58:25I'm sorry.
00:58:28Why?
00:58:28Why did you have to marry me?
00:58:30Remember the boy I told you about?
00:58:32The one from the warehouse?
00:58:33That boy was me.
00:58:35Seventeen years ago, the girl who saved me and helped me escape was you.
00:58:42You got me out seventeen years ago.
00:58:45Now I protect you.
00:58:48Not me.
00:58:49I don't remember any of that.
00:58:51You have the wrong person.
00:58:58Why won't you look at me?
00:59:00What are you hiding?
00:59:04You mistook me for your savior.
00:59:05I married the wrong man.
00:59:07Wrong from the start.
00:59:08End it here.
00:59:09What did you just say?
00:59:11Ending this now is best for both of us.
00:59:16That's not happening.
00:59:18You want the girl who saved you all those years ago?
00:59:21That's not me.
00:59:23I don't care how much time is left on the agreement.
00:59:26I'm not letting you walk away.
00:59:29Maren!
00:59:33Take her phone.
00:59:35Starting now, she doesn't leave this apartment without my permission.
00:59:39Cassiel, I don't think that's...
00:59:40Do what I say.
00:59:44I'm sorry.
00:59:46Cassiel, you can't keep me locked up!
00:59:55Cassiel, open this door!
00:59:58You really think a locked door can keep me in here?
01:00:10Thirty-five floors.
01:00:12Yeah, that's not happening.
01:00:18It's worth a shot.
01:00:27I told you, Cassiel.
01:00:29You can't keep me here.
01:00:34Management called penthouse fire alarm.
01:00:39Averyne's still inside!
01:00:40No fire.
01:00:41Candle alarm.
01:00:41She slipped out during evac.
01:00:48Nicely played, Averyne.
01:00:50Pull all exit and street footage.
01:00:53Report first.
01:00:54Don't alert her.
01:00:56Understood.
01:01:01It's small, but you can stay here for a few days.
01:01:04I honestly didn't know who else to call.
01:01:06What happened between you and Cassiel?
01:01:09Did he hurt you?
01:01:10No.
01:01:10It's complicated.
01:01:11I'll tell you another time.
01:01:14You quit your job to sing at a bar?
01:01:16My boyfriend owns the place, and he needed a regular singer.
01:01:23Your rent is two weeks late.
01:01:27The lease is for one tenant.
01:01:29Who is she?
01:01:32A friend.
01:01:33She's only staying a few days.
01:01:34Two-person lease, $2,100 a month.
01:01:38Pay tonight or move out.
01:01:40Wait, it was $1,400.
01:01:41Forget it.
01:01:42I'll get a motel.
01:01:43The second you use your card, Cassia will find you.
01:01:47And stop bringing those men from the bar home at night.
01:01:49The neighbors are complaining.
01:01:50I'm the singer there, not what you imply.
01:01:52Too dirty?
01:01:53Send it back.
01:01:54I'll pay you back every penny.
01:01:55So what's your plan now?
01:01:56The neighborhood grocery store is hiring stock clerks.
01:01:59$19 an hour.
01:02:00Can you handle lifting all those boxes?
01:02:02I have to try.
01:02:04You've already done more than enough for me.
01:02:14We found Averyan!
01:02:35Help me.
01:02:36Is she having a heart attack?
01:02:38Nobody touch her!
01:02:39We already called 911!
01:02:48Averyan, get back here!
01:02:49You're a stock clerk or not a medic!
01:02:51Before the paramedics get here, we need to know if she has any medication on her.
01:02:56Medicine in my pocket.
01:02:59She's down.
01:02:59You're going through her pockets?
01:03:01Stealing?
01:03:01She said her medication is in there.
01:03:03Let go of me.
01:03:07Bottle matches her alert card, her emergency heart med.
01:03:10This it?
01:03:15The ambulance is almost here.
01:03:17Why are you so desperate to play hero?
01:03:22She's not moving!
01:03:23You must have given her the wrong medicine!
01:03:27We all saw it!
01:03:28She gave that woman something!
01:03:29She's not breathing normally!
01:03:32Get the AED, now!
01:03:38Where's the AED?
01:03:40Leave her alone!
01:03:41Wait for the paramedics!
01:03:43A stock clerk thinks she can save her?
01:03:46What is this, a movie?
01:03:48Some do anything for attention, then claim they were helping when it fails.
01:03:53If you're not going to help, move!
01:03:56Move!
01:04:00Get the AED!
01:04:02Now!
01:04:05Should we go in?
01:04:06She knows what she's doing.
01:04:15You know how to use that, right?
01:04:16I'm trained in first aid.
01:04:18Everybody stand back!
01:04:20It didn't work!
01:04:21Oh God, she killed her!
01:04:25Stay with me.
01:04:27The ambulance is almost here.
01:04:29Come on.
01:04:30Hold on just a little longer.
01:04:40She's breathing.
01:04:43Did you save me?
01:04:46Don't try to talk yet.
01:04:47The paramedics are almost here.
01:04:51Make room!
01:04:54Her heart rhythm is back.
01:04:56You got to her just in time.
01:04:59I'm just glad you're okay.
01:05:02Everyone was attacking her, but she never stopped.
01:05:06That's who she is.
01:05:12So this is where you've been hiding.
01:05:21Welcome.
01:05:26How did she find me here?
01:05:28Look who.
01:05:30Mrs. Veyron.
01:05:32Cassie, you'll know you haul water?
01:05:33If you're buying something, pay for it.
01:05:36If you're here to dig into my personal life,
01:05:39the door's right there.
01:05:40Since I'm here, support your business.
01:05:43One-pack menthols.
01:05:50Sorry.
01:05:51My hand slipped.
01:05:53I can't bend down in this skirt,
01:05:55so pick it up for me.
01:06:00Ah!
01:06:01Get off!
01:06:05Everyone, take a good look at her.
01:06:07She knew Caliel was engaged to me,
01:06:10and she married him anyway.
01:06:13Her father was a kidnapper with blood on his hands,
01:06:16but she played the victim
01:06:17and married her way into the Veyron family.
01:06:22You investigated me?
01:06:25Does Cassie know about this too?
01:06:27If I could find out,
01:06:29what makes you think he doesn't already know?
01:06:32Stood by Cassiel for years.
01:06:34Then she took him and had him buy her a house and jewelry.
01:06:38Avrian seemed innocent.
01:06:41Never thought she'd do that.
01:06:43Another woman destroyed my marriage.
01:06:45Women like her play innocent.
01:06:49Get your foot off her!
01:07:00Get your foot off her.
01:07:09Can you move your fingers?
01:07:13Cassiel, I'm protecting you.
01:07:14Her father nearly killed you.
01:07:16You don't know why she's here.
01:07:20I told you.
01:07:21Stay out of whatever happens between us.
01:07:24Averin is my legal wife.
01:07:25Our marriage license is public record.
01:07:27What Varanian just told you is a lie.
01:07:30The security cameras caught everything.
01:07:33She dropped the cigarettes on purpose,
01:07:35then stepped on Averin's hand.
01:07:39Hey!
01:07:40Stop recording!
01:07:42Give me that phone!
01:07:48The cameras caught that, too.
01:07:50No one touched you.
01:07:51Call the police.
01:07:53Have legal file for a restraining order.
01:07:56Don't call the police.
01:07:57Just make her leave.
01:08:01Cassiel,
01:08:02once your mother finds out who her father was,
01:08:04she'll never accept her.
01:08:06I decide who I marry.
01:08:09Or Leia won't accept you that easily.
01:08:20You found me anyway.
01:08:23Did you honestly think I wouldn't come after you?
01:08:27You'd rather stay here than come home with me?
01:08:30Don't act like this place is beneath me.
01:08:33I've lived in places smaller than this.
01:08:37Tell me what it'll take for you to forgive me.
01:08:41Stop looking for me.
01:08:47I spent 17 years looking for you.
01:08:50I can't just pretend none of this happened.
01:08:53Let her go!
01:08:59Did you do that to her hand?
01:09:03No.
01:09:04Verilia did.
01:09:06Thank you for giving her a place to stay.
01:09:08I just need to talk to her.
01:09:12It's okay.
01:09:13We'll talk in my room.
01:09:15Leave the door unlocked.
01:09:16Call me if you need anything.
01:09:18After I hit my head in Rock Hill,
01:09:19everything came back.
01:09:21The man who kidnapped you was my father.
01:09:24That's why you left?
01:09:25Yes.
01:09:27I spent 17 years looking for you.
01:09:31I read every police report from the case.
01:09:34I've known who he was for years.
01:09:36But he almost killed you!
01:09:38That was his crime, not yours.
01:09:40You were the one who saved me.
01:09:45Not revenge.
01:09:47Not just gratitude.
01:09:48I married you for a life with you.
01:09:52Avarin, look at me.
01:09:54Did you ever love me?
01:09:57Even a little?
01:09:58I love you.
01:09:59That's why I can't stay.
01:10:07Avarin is Corvin Solon's daughter?
01:10:10Cassius already knows.
01:10:11And he's still protecting her.
01:10:13Where are they?
01:10:14At a shared apartment in the old district.
01:10:17Bring the car around.
01:10:18This marriage ends today.
01:10:27Who are you people?
01:10:30Get out!
01:10:31You're trespassing!
01:10:35Avarin isn't here.
01:10:39Where did she go?
01:10:40I don't know.
01:10:48Take her.
01:10:49Let me go!
01:10:50This is kidnapping!
01:10:56Come to Aurelia Estate alone.
01:10:59Don't call the police.
01:11:01Tavara!
01:11:05Let her go.
01:11:06She has nothing to do with this.
01:11:07You hid who you were and went after Cassian.
01:11:11Was this your way of getting revenge?
01:11:13Until yesterday.
01:11:14I didn't remember that my father kidnapped Cassier.
01:11:17Your father died after the warehouse.
01:11:20Never suspected the variants?
01:11:23Did your family have something to do with his death?
01:11:26Fell from second floor platform escaping.
01:11:28Dead before police.
01:11:31Viron lawyers leaked evidence to press.
01:11:34Then he was known as kidnapper and murder suspect.
01:11:37Now you get it.
01:11:39You and Cassiel were never going to have a future.
01:11:41Ten million dollars is already in a scroll.
01:11:44Sign, leave Edibog, and it's all yours.
01:11:46I'm not leaving Cassiel.
01:11:48Ten million still isn't enough?
01:11:59Then we'll do this another way.
01:12:06What are you going to do?
01:12:09Take her punishment, and I'll let her go.
01:12:12Why should I trust you?
01:12:24Stop!
01:12:25I'll do it!
01:12:27I want to see her leave safely.
01:12:32Fine.
01:12:35Don't stay because of me.
01:12:37We'll leave together.
01:12:41You've already done so much for me.
01:12:43Now listen to me.
01:12:44Get out of here.
01:12:47What about you?
01:12:52I'll handle this.
01:13:03Tavari just called.
01:13:05She said Aurelia took Aver into the estate.
01:13:16Tavira hasn't left the estate grounds yet.
01:13:18You know what to say.
01:13:22Friane, has my mother contacted you?
01:13:26No.
01:13:27I'm at the apartment.
01:13:29Good.
01:13:29I picked up some salmon.
01:13:31I'll make dinner tonight.
01:13:33Okay.
01:13:37What did she say?
01:13:40She's lying.
01:13:41Someone was listening.
01:13:42We're going to Varen Estate.
01:13:44We're going to Varen Estate.
01:13:49At least you knew what to say.
01:13:53Even after letting Tavira go,
01:13:54you're still going to force me to leave Cassie at hell, aren't you?
01:13:57Letting her go was part of our deal.
01:13:59You're still signing the divorce agreement.
01:14:08I'll ask you one last time.
01:14:10Sign it and leave Cassium.
01:14:12I'm not signing.
01:14:15Make her reconsider.
01:14:21You can still change your mind.
01:14:23Spare me the speech.
01:14:36Can you go any faster?
01:14:38I'm already pushing it.
01:14:41Sign it and I'll make her stop.
01:14:44I told you.
01:14:46I'm not signing.
01:14:49Again.
01:14:53Put it down!
01:15:05Averin.
01:15:07Wake up.
01:15:09Look at me.
01:15:12If she's harmed,
01:15:13you'll never get out.
01:15:19Call the police.
01:15:20Secure every second of surveillance footage.
01:15:22No one leaves.
01:15:27Aurelia!
01:15:28Help me!
01:15:31Cassiel!
01:15:32Ruin Virella for her?
01:15:34Her mother saved me
01:15:36when I almost bled out
01:15:37giving birth to you.
01:15:38You owe her mother.
01:15:40Averin doesn't have to pay that debt for you.
01:15:43I'm your mother!
01:15:45That's exactly why I gave you chance after chance.
01:15:50You kidnapped and tortured Averin?
01:15:53Unforgivable.
01:15:54We're done.
01:15:56Don't contact me.
01:16:04She's pregnant.
01:16:06She's pregnant.
01:16:06About six weeks.
01:16:08She's pregnant?
01:16:09She's bleeding.
01:16:10We need to treat her immediately,
01:16:12but I can't promise the outcome.
01:16:18Save her first.
01:16:20And please do everything you can for the baby.
01:16:23We'll do everything we can.
01:16:28Averin.
01:16:29Averin, I'm sorry.
01:16:31I promised I'd protect you,
01:16:32and I failed.
01:16:38You should sit down.
01:16:43How is she?
01:16:45We stopped the bleeding.
01:16:47She and the baby are both stable for now.
01:16:50The baby's okay too?
01:16:51Yes, but we need to monitor them
01:16:53for the next 48 hours.
01:17:00Donate one million dollars
01:17:02to the emergency center in Averin's name.
01:17:04I'll handle it.
01:17:07Averin's pregnant!
01:17:08She lost that much blood.
01:17:11There's no way the baby survived.
01:17:13She'd even go after her own grandchild.
01:17:15I need to make sure Averin is safe.
01:17:18How's Averin?
01:17:19She and the baby both made it.
01:17:22I need to keep this from them.
01:17:24It'll buy Callie in some time.
01:17:27The baby didn't make it.
01:17:29That was your grandchild.
01:17:31Then leave.
01:17:32And don't come back.
01:17:39I'll have someone at the hospital
01:17:40verify it.
01:17:48Averin?
01:17:49Can you hear me?
01:17:50Where does it hurt?
01:17:52Tavira.
01:17:53She's safe.
01:17:55She made it home.
01:18:01The doctor found something else.
01:18:05You're pregnant.
01:18:10What about the baby?
01:18:11Did we lose it?
01:18:13No.
01:18:13The baby's still here.
01:18:24I almost lost both of you.
01:18:28You didn't lose us.
01:18:30Cassiel, look at me.
01:18:32We're both still here.
01:18:38We are.
01:18:40Our baby.
01:18:52Cassiel's gone.
01:18:54He just went downstairs with Meriden.
01:18:56And before you ask,
01:18:57I can't discuss a patient's condition.
01:19:04$50,000?
01:19:06I can't take this.
01:19:08Oralita just wants to know
01:19:09if Averin can still have children.
01:19:10Her baby survived,
01:19:12so of course she...
01:19:18You didn't even know
01:19:19she was pregnant, did you?
01:19:21I do now.
01:19:22One more favor.
01:19:23Tell her it came from nutrition services.
01:19:27I'm not touching her medication.
01:19:31Oralita sent it.
01:19:33You know she's trying
01:19:34to make things right with Averin?
01:19:55Averin saved Cassiel,
01:19:57then Corvin beat her nearly to death.
01:20:03So she really didn't remember Cassiel?
01:20:06She never lied to anyone.
01:20:08I almost killed her.
01:20:11And that baby.
01:20:12The baby's alive.
01:20:16Averin may not want to see you.
01:20:21Then I'll wait until she does.
01:20:33Nutrition services made this for you.
01:20:35It should help with your recovery.
01:20:52Averin, Aurea came to apologize.
01:20:55I know an apology won't make this right,
01:20:57but I need to say it.
01:20:58I was wrong.
01:21:00Serevan found your records.
01:21:02You saved Cassiel,
01:21:04lost memory from Corvin's beating.
01:21:06No lies,
01:21:07no revenge.
01:21:12So you believe me now?
01:21:16I do.
01:21:16I just refuse to listen.
01:21:19Pregnant or not,
01:21:21I never should have hurt you.
01:21:22I can forgive you,
01:21:24but I need time.
01:21:26Take all the time you need.
01:21:30She spent all morning in making this.
01:21:32Give it a try.
01:21:37The nurse said I should drink
01:21:39the hospital supplement first.
01:21:41Have the soup.
01:21:43I'll drink this.
01:21:44I haven't eaten all day anyway.
01:21:47Okay.
01:22:15Where's my mother?
01:22:16She's in the ICU.
01:22:18They're trying to save her.
01:22:20What did she eat or drink
01:22:21before she collapsed?
01:22:23The cream of corn soup.
01:22:25And that drink.
01:22:28A nurse brought that for me.
01:22:30Bag the bottle and get it to the lab.
01:22:32Now.
01:22:36Call the police and hospital security.
01:22:38Secure every camera feed.
01:22:40Find out who brought that bottle in.
01:22:43Understood.
01:22:45You brought that into her room?
01:22:49Verola gave it to me.
01:22:51I didn't know it was poisoned.
01:22:54But you knew it didn't come from the hospital.
01:23:00That drink was meant for my pregnant wife.
01:23:03You almost killed her and our baby.
01:23:05Now my mother's in the ICU.
01:23:07I'm sorry.
01:23:09I swear I didn't know.
01:23:15Police found Verola in the parking lot.
01:23:17They're questioning her next door.
01:23:20Give him the check, the footage, and the toxicology report.
01:23:33Aurelia, you're awake.
01:23:35You're still recovering.
01:23:37What are you doing here?
01:23:39That drink was meant for me.
01:23:40I never should have let you have it.
01:23:42You didn't poison it.
01:23:44Don't take the blame for someone else's crime.
01:23:53Did you find out who did this?
01:23:56Verola.
01:23:57She bribed the nurse to bring the drink to Averine.
01:24:02Verola?
01:24:03Help me over there.
01:24:05I'm going to face that vicious little monster myself.
01:24:17I watched you grow up.
01:24:19I never thought you'd go after Averine and her baby.
01:24:23I learned it from you.
01:24:26I misjudged Averine.
01:24:27I hurt her.
01:24:28But I never wanted her dead.
01:24:30You promised me I'd marry Cassiel!
01:24:33I did all you asked for years, yet you choose that bitch over me?
01:24:40Averine saved Kallia's life.
01:24:42She's his wife, and she's family.
01:24:47You'll be charged with poisoning and attempted murder.
01:24:51My father will hire the best lawyers.
01:24:53He'll get me out.
01:24:54He can hire every lawyer in Eddiville.
01:24:56None of them can erase the evidence.
01:24:58Varian Global has terminated all business with the Orvon family.
01:25:01No!
01:25:03You can't do that of my family!
01:25:06You did this to them.
01:25:11Cassiel!
01:25:12Cassiel, I did all of this because I love you!
01:25:16That isn't love.
01:25:18It's obsession.
01:25:45You made this?
01:25:48It took me five tries.
01:25:51Your board meeting starts in ten minutes.
01:25:55Merlin can stall them for fifteen.
01:25:57And your point is?
01:26:03That gives me five more minutes with you.
01:26:10Looks like the baby doesn't want you to go either.
01:26:13Then I'll cancel the meeting.
01:26:16Go to work.
01:26:18The baby and I are counting on you to provide for us.
01:26:26Yes, Mrs. Varian.
01:26:38Our ninety days ended a long time ago.
01:26:45I know.
01:26:47Then why did you keep this?
01:26:49Yes.
01:26:51Yes.
01:26:54Yes.
01:26:55Yes.
01:26:57Yes.
01:26:57I didn't.
01:27:01And our marriage?
01:27:05That's for life.
01:27:07If you still want it.
01:27:12I do.
01:27:13Yes.
01:27:15Yes.
01:27:25That's for me.
