00:00:00Five years ago, I had Grant's daughter in secret and raised her alone.
00:00:04That night, I was ready to tell him the truth.
00:00:07Then I found out he'd spent the night with Sienna.
00:00:12Where does it hurt?
00:00:13You know where. I've been hurting ever since last night.
00:00:18Grant and I were in a secret marriage for seven years.
00:00:21The second he chose another woman in public, I decided to divorce him, take my daughter, and leave for good.
00:00:27Mommy, why don't I have a dad? Is he dead?
00:00:30Lily was already five.
00:00:31She had no idea her father was alive, let alone that he ran Hale Health.
00:00:35For five years, I never regretted hiding it from her.
00:00:38But that night, she asked about her dad for the first time.
00:00:40For seven years, every time Grant pushed me aside, I told myself he was just busy.
00:00:44For Lily, I decided to give him one last chance.
00:00:47Dr. Shaw, a patient may have had rough sex in early pregnancy.
00:00:49She could have a ruptured corpus lurum cyst.
00:00:51Start vitals. Prepper sent the message.
00:00:53I never sent the message. I got called to the ER instead.
00:00:55That was the closest Grant ever came to his daughter.
00:00:58The patient was Sienna.
00:00:59She was engaged to Grant's cousin in prison, but Grant had been taking care of her himself.
00:01:03Transfer me to Hale Medical Center. I want a different doctor.
00:01:08You're at risk for internal bleeding. You need an exam first.
00:01:11I reached in to examine her.
00:01:13And Sienna smacked my hand hard enough to leave it red.
00:01:16But the second she saw Grant, all that hostility disappeared.
00:01:19Grant.
00:01:20Even her voice turned soft.
00:01:22Grant walked right past me and went straight to Sienna.
00:01:25No one knew the wife he left standing there was me.
00:01:28Where does it hurt?
00:01:29You know where?
00:01:31I've been hurting ever since last night.
00:01:34Sienna made it sound deliberate.
00:01:36Everyone assumed Grant was the baby's father.
00:01:38I waited for him to correct them, but he said nothing.
00:01:41I don't want her touching me.
00:01:43Can you take me to Hale Medical Center?
00:01:47Okay.
00:01:48For seven years, I kept making excuses for Grant.
00:01:51Then he walked out with Sienna, and I finally got it.
00:01:55He wasn't capable of love.
00:01:56It just was never mine.
00:01:58Sienna was what broke the last of my hope.
00:02:01It took me five years to give Grant one more chance.
00:02:03He only needed a few minutes to make me take it back.
00:02:07You've been married that long and never wanted kids?
00:02:09My husband can't get me pregnant.
00:02:11I told that lie to protect my daughter.
00:02:13I didn't know Grant had come back and heard me.
00:02:15Is that how you talk about me to other people?
00:02:20Grant only stopped for me because that remark hurt his reputation.
00:02:24I don't remember ever having that condition.
00:02:26You said you didn't want kids.
00:02:28Either way, it made no difference to me.
00:02:30Work came first, always.
00:02:32I don't want kids, and that's not up for debate.
00:02:35On our wedding night, he told me not to expect children.
00:02:38I made excuses for him.
00:02:39Told myself he was just busy.
00:02:41Every disappointment after that went the same way.
00:02:45Don't drag Sienna into this.
00:02:47In public, you should know how to protect the Hale family's image.
00:02:50He didn't explain the ER mess.
00:02:52He just told me to protect Sienna and the Hale family.
00:02:54My dignity never mattered.
00:02:56There's no us anymore.
00:02:59For the first time in seven years, I didn't run after him to explain.
00:03:03After Grant left, I pulled out the agreement I should have used long ago.
00:03:08Before we got married, the Hale family's lawyers put a seven-year term in the prenup.
00:03:12Grant signed it without reading it.
00:03:15We've got three months left.
00:03:16It used to feel like an expiration date on my marriage.
00:03:19Now it's my way out.
00:03:21For Lily, too.
00:03:23That night, I put the agreement in front of Grant and told him for the first time that our marriage
00:03:27was over.
00:03:28I want a divorce.
00:03:30You have three months to handle the paperwork.
00:03:32Just because I went with Sienna to the doctor?
00:03:34So he knew it would hurt me.
00:03:36He just didn't think it was worth explaining.
00:03:39Yes, because of tonight.
00:03:41And because of the last seven years.
00:03:43I don't have time for your emotions.
00:03:44If you want a divorce, get your own lawyer.
00:03:46I fell for Grant as a teenager.
00:03:48I used to imagine he'd be afraid to lose me.
00:03:50But when I finally said divorce, he didn't even hesitate.
00:03:53Fine.
00:03:55He looked at me for two seconds and decided I was fishing for attention again.
00:03:59Before, I always swallowed it and acted like nothing happened.
00:04:02Sleep on it and don't bring it up again tomorrow.
00:04:06Seven years in, and he still doesn't know how to lose me.
00:04:10This time, I'm not talking myself out of leaving.
00:04:14Mommy, can I come live with you in New York next month?
00:04:18In that empty bedroom, Lily was the only one waiting for me.
00:04:22She was the only one who never let me down.
00:04:25If Grant finds out you already had his daughter, is he going to lose it?
00:04:29Everyone thinks he can't have kids.
00:04:32He'll never know.
00:04:33And he won't care.
00:04:34Everyone thought Grant couldn't have children.
00:04:37I believed it too.
00:04:38Then five years ago, one night proved us all wrong.
00:04:44Grant was hardly ever home.
00:04:46Before he left for San Francisco, he got drunk.
00:04:50That night, we let our guard down for the first time.
00:04:53It was the closest we ever felt.
00:04:55Two months later, I found out I was pregnant.
00:04:58I cried because I thought maybe this would make Grant see our marriage.
00:05:02I flew to San Francisco full of hope and waited outside his office for two hours.
00:05:08Grant never introduced me as his wife.
00:05:10He didn't even ask why I came.
00:05:12He just told his assistant to send me to his place.
00:05:17He thought I'd come to sleep with him again.
00:05:19I guarded our unborn babe and gave him the last bit of hope I had.
00:05:23If we had a child, would you try to make this marriage work?
00:05:25A child won't save a marriage.
00:05:27I don't think a baby will keep me.
00:05:30He never asked why I brought up a child.
00:05:33That night, I laid beside my husband and felt lonelier than if I'd been alone.
00:05:38The next day, he had his assistant book my flight home like he couldn't wait to get rid of me.
00:05:44The baby was growing inside me.
00:05:46I'd have her, but I wouldn't tell Grant.
00:05:48From then on, the tears were behind me.
00:05:51She was mine.
00:05:53Mia introduced me to Hayden.
00:05:55He found me a private clinic outside the Hale system,
00:05:57and he locked down my medical records.
00:06:00Without your written consent, nobody gets these records.
00:06:02You're not going to ask who the father is?
00:06:04That's your privacy.
00:06:05A stranger respected my choice.
00:06:08My husband couldn't even bear to hear whether the child existed.
00:06:11You really filed for divorce from Grant?
00:06:14Mia's watched me love Grant since we were teenagers.
00:06:18Really.
00:06:18Even after all these years, she still couldn't believe I was really leaving.
00:06:22Seven years of marriage, and it all fit into two boxes.
00:06:26What I left behind in this house was about as much as what Grant left me.
00:06:30I wore that ring for seven years.
00:06:32It had gone smooth with time.
00:06:34But when I took it off, it still cut my finger like a knife.
00:06:39The next day, the sound of moving boxes woke me up.
00:06:42Move it.
00:06:43Sienna's moving in soon.
00:06:44Before the divorce was even final, the Hale family was already clearing out my things and getting a room ready
00:06:49for Sienna.
00:06:51When I saw primary bedroom, I got it.
00:06:54They weren't just giving Sienna a room.
00:06:56They were giving her the place I'd never had in seven years as his wife.
00:07:02Every piece was picked for Sienna.
00:07:04In seven years, I never touched Grant's room.
00:07:07And Sienna's not even in the door yet, but they've already given her the master bedroom.
00:07:12Who approved this?
00:07:14Grant.
00:07:14Who else?
00:07:15He doesn't want you anymore.
00:07:17Other than waiting on the Hale family, what are you?
00:07:19Yesterday, Grant let everyone think he and Sienna had something going on.
00:07:23Today, they're pushing me out.
00:07:25They won't even give me these last three months with any dignity.
00:07:28Send it all back.
00:07:29Nobody moves another woman into my bedroom without my permission.
00:07:34My mom gave that to Sienna.
00:07:36You don't get to the side.
00:07:38Then I'll send the front door footage to your school.
00:07:41Let everyone see you helping your brother move another woman into his wife's bedroom.
00:07:46The movers took it all back out.
00:07:48Noah called me cruel, but he didn't dare stop them.
00:07:51It wasn't that he felt no shame.
00:07:53He just never thought I'd hit back.
00:07:56Where are the Hale family's health records?
00:07:58And Sienna's follow-up and rehab plan for next week still isn't set.
00:08:03For seven years, I managed the Hale family's medications and follow-ups.
00:08:07I even took care of Sienna this past year.
00:08:09I thought she was family.
00:08:11I didn't know I was taking care of the woman replacing me.
00:08:13Hire a private physician.
00:08:15As of today, I'm done handling any of this for the Hale family.
00:08:19Other than taking care of Grant, what can you do?
00:08:21Margaret thought I couldn't live without Grant.
00:08:23She had no idea I'd spent years walking away from the career I was actually good at,
00:08:28just to stay close to him.
00:08:30Four years ago, I turned down a digital health offer and chose this hospital
00:08:34because it was closer to Grant's headquarters.
00:08:36I thought if I got closer, maybe the marriage would too.
00:08:40Are you sure you want to leave the ER?
00:08:42Once the handoff is done, I'm going back to digital health.
00:08:45Dr. Harris accepted my resignation.
00:08:48Four years later, being closer never made Grant look at me.
00:08:51I'm done putting my life on hold, waiting for him to turn back.
00:08:55Grant really didn't react at all?
00:08:57No.
00:08:57Mia knew I'd cried over Grant, waited for him, kept making excuses for him.
00:09:02The longer she stayed quiet, the more I saw what a failure those seven years were.
00:09:08Sienna's fiancé is still in prison, and she let everyone think that baby was Grant's?
00:09:13Grant's friend Ryan only heard the last part.
00:09:15He never asked what Sienna said in the ER.
00:09:17He just decided I was spreading sexual rumors about her.
00:09:21So Grant doesn't love you, and this is how you get even?
00:09:24By destroying another woman?
00:09:25No wonder he never acknowledged you in public.
00:09:31Are you Dr. Shaw?
00:09:32Someone just collapsed upstairs.
00:09:34If someone needs a doctor, I don't stop to question it.
00:09:37But whoever was waiting upstairs wasn't a patient.
00:09:42When the scolding soup came at me, Grant yanked me into his arms.
00:09:46That familiar fur scent threw me for a second.
00:09:49Even my body remembered the husband who almost never held me.
00:09:54Don't get it twisted.
00:09:55Grant just didn't want you dragging Sienna into this.
00:09:58Ryan killed that split second of hope fast.
00:10:01Grant didn't deny it.
00:10:02He'd only grabbed me to shield Sienna.
00:10:04There was never any patient.
00:10:06Ryan lured me up here just to make me apologize to Sienna in front of Grant.
00:10:10You told people Sienna was pregnant with my child?
00:10:13I only said what she did in the ER.
00:10:15I was never pregnant.
00:10:16You deliberately ruined my reputation.
00:10:19So Sienna finally admitted it.
00:10:21She was never pregnant.
00:10:22But that night, she refused the exam and let everyone think Grant was the father.
00:10:26Now she's the victim.
00:10:27If you were wrong, own it.
00:10:29Apologize to Sienna.
00:10:30Apologize!
00:10:31I used to wish Grant would hold my hand in public.
00:10:35The first time he did, it was to force me to bow to another woman.
00:10:38One look from Sienna and he let go.
00:10:41Even with our marriage falling apart, he still cared more about what she thought.
00:10:46Fine.
00:10:47I'll apologize publicly.
00:10:52I'm sorry I got the wrong idea when my husband spent the night at a guy-in-appointment with his
00:10:56cousin's fiancée.
00:10:57And I'm sorry I interrupted Sienna's audition to be the next Mrs. Hale.
00:11:02Do you have to humiliate me like this?
00:11:04I'm just repeating the story you put on for everyone.
00:11:07So now you're done explaining?
00:11:09Is this all just another way to get my attention?
00:11:11To Grant.
00:11:13My anger.
00:11:14My silence.
00:11:15Even the divorce.
00:11:16It was all just me fighting for his attention.
00:11:19He never imagined a woman who'd loved him for ten years could be hurt past the breaking point.
00:11:26Then I wish you both well.
00:11:27If you want Sienna, take her.
00:11:29When the divorce papers arrive, sign them.
00:11:32I'm done explaining.
00:11:33And I'm done competing.
00:11:35I just want Grant to sign.
00:11:36And let me out of this marriage.
00:11:41After every fight, I'd wait outside for Grant to come after me.
00:11:44In seven years, he never did.
00:11:46That day, my body still waited.
00:11:49My heart didn't.
00:11:50Grant answered my demand for the divorce papers with silence.
00:11:54He probably thought if he iced me out,
00:11:55I'd come back like I always had.
00:11:58It only worked for seven years because I let it.
00:12:01That night, I realized I'd left my most important medical manuscript behind.
00:12:06It was my life.
00:12:07So I went back to the Hale townhouse one last time.
00:12:10I didn't think Grant would be home.
00:12:12Instead, I found him video-calling Sienna in our bedroom.
00:12:15They looked like a couple.
00:12:16I was the intruder.
00:12:18Knock before you come in.
00:12:19I'm just getting the manuscript from the safe.
00:12:21Wait outside.
00:12:23I turned that room into a home, piece by piece.
00:12:25Every time Grant left, I told myself next time he'd stay.
00:12:31In the room I'd lived in for seven years,
00:12:33I had to act like a polite guest so I wouldn't interrupt him and Sienna.
00:12:38Grandmother Hale is looking for you.
00:12:40I know Grant doesn't know how to love someone, but you've been married seven years.
00:12:45Please think it over one more time.
00:12:47There's nothing to think over.
00:12:49I've decided to divorce him.
00:12:51The Hale family wronged you.
00:12:53I'll make sure you're taken care of after you leave.
00:12:56She didn't ask why.
00:12:57She just admitted the Hale family had wronged me.
00:12:59They all knew how bad this marriage was.
00:13:01They only looked away because I kept putting up with it.
00:13:04I still hadn't gotten the manuscript when Victoria, Grant's cousin's mother, stormed in.
00:13:08She was convinced I leaked the ER story online.
00:13:11And she slapped me.
00:13:13You can't have Grant, so now you're dragging the whole Hale family down with you.
00:13:19Sienna didn't just see me get slapped.
00:13:21She saw that Grant didn't come to me first.
00:13:24The woman who wrecked my marriage finally got proof.
00:13:27To him, I was nothing.
00:13:29The slap hurt.
00:13:31Worse was Sienna getting to watch me be humiliated right in front of my husband.
00:13:36Later.
00:13:37That laugh stabbed through the last of my dignity.
00:13:41Grant finally hung up, but he still didn't ask if I was hurt.
00:13:44What happened?
00:13:45She posted about you taking Sienna to the ER.
00:13:48Now everyone thinks she's pregnant with your baby.
00:13:49Grant didn't check the source.
00:13:51He took Victoria's word and decided I was jealous enough to get eaten with Sienna.
00:13:54You're that upset over Sienna?
00:13:56If I'd written it, I wouldn't have made you two sound so decent.
00:14:01Miss Carter, get her an ice pack.
00:14:04It wasn't concern.
00:14:05He just didn't want the Hale heir's wife looking too beaten up in his own house.
00:14:10This getting bigger helps no one in the Hale family.
00:14:12Announce that Sienna and my cousin are no longer engaged.
00:14:15Who are you to end my son's engagement for him?
00:14:17I'm not asking you.
00:14:18Grant didn't clear up anything between him and Sienna.
00:14:22He just made her single again.
00:14:23Maybe he was clearing the last obstacle for both of them.
00:14:26So what if you're still Mrs. Hale?
00:14:28You'll never measure up to Sienna.
00:14:30Grant will throw you out sooner or later.
00:14:35My face wasn't what I wanted to wash clean.
00:14:38It was Sienna's laugh when she saw me humiliated.
00:14:42Some wounds don't come off with cold water.
00:14:45Who leaked it, you or Sienna?
00:14:47Were you trying to let Evelyn take Victoria's anger for you?
00:14:51Even Margaret thought they might have staged it.
00:14:53To the Hale family, I wasn't just disposable.
00:14:56I could be shoved out front to take the blow for Sienna.
00:15:00Evelyn's loved you for years.
00:15:02She won't bear to put you in a bad spot.
00:15:05Ignore her for a few days and she'll clean this up herself.
00:15:08I know.
00:15:09He'd always known how much I loved him.
00:15:12That's why he kept spending it like it would never run out.
00:15:15I was done defending myself.
00:15:17Once I had the manuscript, I just wanted out of that house.
00:15:20But when I turned to leave,
00:15:21Grant finally saw the wedding ring and divorce papers I'd left behind.
00:15:27What's this?
00:15:28The agreement you signed seven years ago.
00:15:30Now it's your turn to read it.
00:15:32Even for the divorce, I had to prepare everything for Grant.
00:15:35Then wait until he could spare a second away from Sienna.
00:15:38To look at it.
00:15:41Grant, I think I have a fever.
00:15:43I'm a little scared here by myself.
00:15:46Sir, aren't you going to read the documents Mrs. Hay left first?
00:15:49Whatever she left, it can't be urgent.
00:15:51One word from Sienna that she wasn't feeling well
00:15:53and suddenly nothing about me mattered again.
00:15:56Lie down and get some rest.
00:15:58I'm on my way.
00:15:59I got slapped right in front of him
00:16:00and he never once asked if I was hurt.
00:16:03Sienna had a fever
00:16:04and that was enough for him to rush over in the middle of the night.
00:16:08It was always that clear
00:16:09who he loved and who he didn't.
00:16:12It took me seven years to accept that Grant didn't love me.
00:16:16That night, I finally stopped looking back.
00:16:19Sienna had a fever
00:16:20and Grant brought in a specialist overnight.
00:16:22Then he stayed with her all night.
00:16:24In the photo, their hands were almost touching.
00:16:26The mark on my face still hadn't faded.
00:16:28I used to tell myself time meant something.
00:16:31Now I know it doesn't measure love.
00:16:32Now I finally believe you really are done with him.
00:16:35I am.
00:16:36That day, I stopped talking about Grant.
00:16:38I accepted Hayden's offer
00:16:40and got ready to go back to the digital health work
00:16:42I was actually good at.
00:16:43Chief Medical Architector.
00:16:45If you want it, it's yours.
00:16:48I do.
00:16:49For that marriage,
00:16:50I buried my name and my ambitions.
00:16:53Now I'm taking them back, one by one.
00:16:56There's a health tech interview event downstairs.
00:16:58Want to come take a look with me?
00:17:00I heard she's not just a rising medical star.
00:17:02She's the future Mrs. Hale, too.
00:17:04I just decided to take back my career.
00:17:07Then I heard everyone handing my husband
00:17:09and my place right over to Sienna.
00:17:12Sienna had just finished the panel.
00:17:14The reporters were all over her.
00:17:16Young, beautiful, and helping develop a new drug.
00:17:18Nobody cared if it was true.
00:17:20People are saying you're the never-before-seen Mrs. Hale.
00:17:22Is that true?
00:17:23Sienna didn't deny it.
00:17:25She just smiled
00:17:25and soaked up the attention
00:17:27like it was all hers.
00:17:29The crowd shoved me back.
00:17:31Grant caught me
00:17:31and before I could steady myself,
00:17:34Sienna called his name through the reporters.
00:17:36Grant, I'm here.
00:17:38One word from Sienna
00:17:39and Grant let go of me like I was nothing.
00:17:42Hayden was the one who steadied me.
00:17:44You really know how to pick your moment.
00:17:45You had to fall into Grant's arms
00:17:47right in front of Sienna.
00:17:48I'm his legal wife.
00:17:49If Sienna can't handle normal contact,
00:17:51she should find a single man.
00:17:54So she really is Grant Hale's wife?
00:17:56No wonder Grant came to pick her up himself.
00:17:58They look perfect together.
00:18:00Grant heard them call Sienna his wife
00:18:02and said nothing.
00:18:03Everything he never gave me,
00:18:04status, rides, protection,
00:18:06he gave to another woman.
00:18:08For seven years,
00:18:09he never picked me up from work,
00:18:10never showed up with me in public,
00:18:12never told anyone I was his wife.
00:18:13I thought he just hated publicity.
00:18:16Then I saw it with Sienna.
00:18:18He wasn't hiding the marriage.
00:18:19He was hiding me.
00:18:20Call 911!
00:18:22My daughter can't breathe!
00:18:23I hadn't even gotten out of the crowd
00:18:25when a little girl Lily's age suddenly passed out.
00:18:28The girl's airway was swelling fast.
00:18:31I was about to start emergency care
00:18:32when Sienna shoved me down and took over.
00:18:35I'm a doctor.
00:18:36Everyone else,
00:18:37stay back and stop interfering.
00:18:39Grant saw Sienna shove me down
00:18:40and did nothing.
00:18:42The second people heard she was a medical expert,
00:18:44they started telling me to move.
00:18:46Stop getting in the way!
00:18:48Let Mrs. Hale save her!
00:18:49Give her an oral antihistamine first,
00:18:52then wait for the ambulance.
00:18:54There's no time.
00:18:55She's in an apthylactic shock.
00:18:57She needs eponeterin now.
00:18:59I saw an EpiPad in the girl's backpack.
00:19:01Oral meds work too slowly.
00:19:02If we wait any longer,
00:19:04she may not make it till the ambulance gets here.
00:19:07How long are you going to use this kid to put on a show?
00:19:12Sienna thought I was just trying to show her up
00:19:14in front of Grant.
00:19:15But I'm a mother too.
00:19:16I couldn't watch a child stop breathing
00:19:19because she was jealous.
00:19:24Once the EpiDentalin kicked in,
00:19:25the girl finally started breathing again.
00:19:28But before her mother could say a word,
00:19:30Grant's assistant gave Sienna the credit.
00:19:32It must have been Sienna's earlier treatment ticking in.
00:19:34Good thing she made the right call.
00:19:36His assistant knew exactly who I was
00:19:38and still gave Sienna the credit.
00:19:40Grant never stopped it.
00:19:41Just like the last seven years,
00:19:43he let what I did go unseen.
00:19:45No wonder she's the future Mrs. Poehling.
00:19:47All that matters is that she's okay.
00:19:50I was only doing my job.
00:19:51I didn't care about the credit.
00:19:53I just needed to know that little girl,
00:19:55the same age as Lily,
00:19:57was really safe.
00:19:58You're so good with kids.
00:20:00Do you have one too?
00:20:01My hand froze.
00:20:02Grant heard it too.
00:20:04For the first time in five years,
00:20:06Lily's secret fell back close to him.
00:20:08Evelyn,
00:20:10have you had a child?
00:20:14Reporters were everywhere.
00:20:15One wrong word and Lily would be exposed.
00:20:18No.
00:20:18ER doctors know how to handle a scared kid.
00:20:23The ambulance is here.
00:20:24Let's not get in the doctor's way.
00:20:26He didn't press it.
00:20:28Five years ago,
00:20:29Grant said he wouldn't let me have that baby.
00:20:32In Grant's eyes,
00:20:33I was never brave enough to defy him.
00:20:37Your knee's injured.
00:20:38Get it checked first.
00:20:40Hayden didn't ask why I'd lied.
00:20:42He just blocked the reporters
00:20:43and got me out of there.
00:20:47Using cross keeps Lily private.
00:20:48It won't stop her biological father
00:20:50from going after custody later.
00:20:52Hayden was right.
00:20:53Cross can hide Lily,
00:20:54but not forever.
00:20:56Once Grant knows he's her father,
00:20:58the Hale lawyers will turn custody into a war.
00:21:00Then put that in the divorce papers.
00:21:02Do you think Grant will sign?
00:21:04I don't know if Grant will sign,
00:21:06but if Sienna asks,
00:21:07he'll forget his own wife.
00:21:10That might be my only chance.
00:21:12Before he finds out Lily exists,
00:21:14I have to get his signature.
00:21:18Mr. Hale is in a meeting.
00:21:20No appointment,
00:21:21no access upstairs.
00:21:22In seven years of marriage,
00:21:23this was my first time here as Grant's wife.
00:21:26His assistant stopped me downstairs.
00:21:28Sienna never needed an appointment.
00:21:31Tell him Mrs. Hale is waiting.
00:21:39I'm buying a house for my family.
00:21:41This addendum makes it clear the money is mine.
00:21:43The money clause was a cover.
00:21:45Buried behind it,
00:21:47any child from this marriage
00:21:48stays with the primary carrier
00:21:50and the other parent can't contest
00:21:51where the child lives.
00:21:52Grant read every contract carefully.
00:21:54Right when he was about to hit the custody clause,
00:21:56I found myself hoping Sienna would walk in.
00:22:01Sienna hurt her foot downstairs.
00:22:03Sienna came through.
00:22:05Grant didn't even notice he'd knocked into me
00:22:07before rushing downstairs to her.
00:22:09It'll take two seconds.
00:22:11Anything else?
00:22:14No.
00:22:15Thanks.
00:22:18Running to Sienna cost Grant
00:22:20any future chance to fight me for Lily.
00:22:25Once Grant signed,
00:22:26I was officially back at CrossMed.
00:22:28Five years ago,
00:22:29I gave up this system for my marriage.
00:22:30Now Hayden, CrossMed's founder and CEO,
00:22:33gave me back my role as chief medical architect.
00:22:35Welcome back, Dr. Shaw.
00:22:36Five years ago,
00:22:37Hayden helped me protect Lily's medical privacy.
00:22:39Five years later,
00:22:39he still had my code,
00:22:41my credit,
00:22:41and my access
00:22:42waiting for me to decide when to come back.
00:22:44Hayley Health can provide
00:22:45all the clinical resources
00:22:46on one condition.
00:22:48I serve as the project's medical liaison.
00:22:50Hayley Health wants
00:22:51exclusive pilot rights to the system.
00:22:53Sienna wants into the core project
00:22:55with her name on the results
00:22:56as medical consultant.
00:22:58Your data is missing adverse event records.
00:23:00It can't enter the pilot.
00:23:01You've been on the job one day
00:23:03and you think you can decide
00:23:04a Hayley Health partnership?
00:23:05I'm CrossMed's CEO.
00:23:07I appointed Evelyn Chief Medical Architect.
00:23:10Her review is this company's decision.
00:23:13Complete the data
00:23:13or drop out of consideration.
00:23:16Grant will make you change that decision.
00:23:18She didn't think I had the right to say no
00:23:20because every time before,
00:23:22if Sienna wanted something,
00:23:24Grant removed whoever stood in her way.
00:23:27After Sienna left,
00:23:29she went straight to Grant.
00:23:30Two hours later,
00:23:32he brought her back
00:23:32and made her demands
00:23:33Hayley Health's terms.
00:23:34Hayley Health will provide
00:23:35the clinical data
00:23:36and $5 million in pilot funding.
00:23:38Sienna will serve as medical liaison.
00:23:40She hid adverse events.
00:23:42Money doesn't erase the risk to patients.
00:23:44Don't bring your issues
00:23:45with Sienna into this.
00:23:46He didn't even ask
00:23:47what data was missing.
00:23:48He just decided I was jealous.
00:23:50For seven years,
00:23:51whenever Sienna and I clashed,
00:23:52Grant doubted me first.
00:23:55She already answered you.
00:23:57This is between me and Evelyn.
00:23:59What you are to each other
00:24:00after hours isn't my concern.
00:24:02At CrossMed,
00:24:03she's my chief medical architect.
00:24:04Call legal.
00:24:05If Sienna stays part of the deal,
00:24:07Hell Health is off the pilot list.
00:24:09You're walking away
00:24:10from Hell Health for her?
00:24:12I'm protecting my employee
00:24:14and I'm protecting the patients.
00:24:24You don't have to pretend
00:24:25you're fine with me.
00:24:26I just didn't expect him
00:24:27to not even ask why.
00:24:29Anyone who keeps making you
00:24:30prove yourself
00:24:30isn't worth another explanation.
00:24:32Tomorrow's validation
00:24:33goes on as planned.
00:24:34You run it.
00:24:35If the date is bad,
00:24:36shut Hell Health down
00:24:36in front of Grant.
00:24:38Grant treated my judgment
00:24:39like jealousy.
00:24:41Hayden gave me
00:24:42the decision back.
00:24:43Tomorrow,
00:24:44I'll prove it myself.
00:24:45Sienna wasn't afraid
00:24:46of my jealousy.
00:24:47She was afraid
00:24:47I saw through her data.
00:24:50The next day,
00:24:52CrossMed and Hell Health
00:24:53ran a joint validation.
00:24:55Sienna even brought
00:24:56her brother Leo
00:24:56as the foundation's
00:24:57child patient representative
00:24:58like she was already in charge.
00:25:00Hell Health submitted
00:25:01200 pediatric ER cases.
00:25:0337 are duplicates.
00:25:04Two serious
00:25:05adverse events were deleted.
00:25:06Stop the validation now.
00:25:08The system has to be wrong.
00:25:09The data came from
00:25:10Hell Health.
00:25:11Don't kill the whole partnership
00:25:12just because she's here.
00:25:13Grant still believed
00:25:14Sienna over me.
00:25:16This time,
00:25:16I didn't wait for his approval.
00:25:18I shut down the system
00:25:19before it could hurt patients.
00:25:21Save every log.
00:25:22Revoke Sienna's access
00:25:23until the audit is complete.
00:25:24Just because Evelyn says so?
00:25:25At CrossMed,
00:25:26if the chief medical architect
00:25:27flags a clinical risk,
00:25:29that's enough to shut it down.
00:25:30Hayden,
00:25:30this medicine is so bitter.
00:25:32I don't want it.
00:25:33Finish it,
00:25:34then have Mia give you
00:25:35a spoonful of honey.
00:25:35If you still have a fever
00:25:37tonight, call me.
00:25:38Hayden knew Lily's dosage.
00:25:39He knew every fever
00:25:41made her cranky.
00:25:42For five years,
00:25:43he never missed
00:25:43the everyday things
00:25:44Grant never showed up for.
00:25:46Mom,
00:25:47my transfer's all set.
00:25:48Can I go to New York early?
00:25:51One more week.
00:25:52I'll come get you.
00:25:55Who was that?
00:25:58A friend's daughter.
00:26:00Then why does Hayden
00:26:01know exactly how much
00:26:02medication she takes?
00:26:03Because he cares.
00:26:05Anything else?
00:26:06The first time Grant
00:26:07pressed me about Lily,
00:26:09it wasn't because
00:26:09he recognized his daughter.
00:26:11It was because another man
00:26:12knew my life better
00:26:13than he did.
00:26:17Personal time's over.
00:26:18Mr. Hale,
00:26:19if this is about work,
00:26:20take it back to the conference room.
00:26:21The revised model
00:26:22Evelyn uploaded last night
00:26:23is identical to Faye's version
00:26:24from five years ago.
00:26:25She had no authorization.
00:26:26This is theft.
00:26:27Five years ago,
00:26:28the Hale Foundation
00:26:29only saw a Faye demo back
00:26:30from the early fundraising stage.
00:26:32As soon as the data fraud came out,
00:26:34Sienna used it to accuse me
00:26:36and bury the record she deleted.
00:26:37If she's under suspicion for theft,
00:26:39she shouldn't still be running the project.
00:26:41A complaint isn't a verdict.
00:26:43Evelyn stays in charge of the project.
00:26:45The Hale Foundation filed a complaint
00:26:47with the State Medical AI Ethics Committee.
00:26:49The external pilot is frozen for now.
00:26:51Freeze Hale Health's access.
00:26:52Keep all of Evelyn's permissions.
00:26:54Start the internal evidence review.
00:26:56Hayden couldn't stop
00:26:57the formal investigation,
00:26:58but he could cut Sienna off
00:26:59from the data.
00:27:01And if I'm going to prove
00:27:02I didn't steal it,
00:27:03there's only one fast way left.
00:27:05Go public as Faye.
00:27:06Are you ready to bring Faye back?
00:27:09Not yet.
00:27:10Those six months Faye would disappeared
00:27:12were when I was pregnant with Lily
00:27:13and gave birth.
00:27:14If I go public,
00:27:15Grant could connect Faye's shutdown,
00:27:17my time in San Francisco,
00:27:18and Lily's age.
00:27:19I can lose the project.
00:27:21I won't risk losing my daughter.
00:27:23Then don't go public.
00:27:25Then the project dies,
00:27:26and CrossMed loses
00:27:27Hale Health's clinical resources.
00:27:29The company can take the hit.
00:27:30When you reveal who you are
00:27:31is up to you.
00:27:34Keep Sienna as medical liaison.
00:27:36Hale withdraws the complaint and...
00:27:38No.
00:27:39I'll face the investigation.
00:27:41You'd rather blow up
00:27:42your own project
00:27:43than back down from her?
00:27:44Hale Health is already out.
00:27:45You have no leverage.
00:27:47Grant thought work
00:27:47was like our marriage.
00:27:49Freeze me out,
00:27:50force me to give in,
00:27:51and I'd come back.
00:27:52Not this time.
00:27:53Hayden didn't make that choice for me,
00:27:55and neither will Grant.
00:27:57The preliminary hearing
00:27:58is tomorrow morning.
00:27:59Sienna claims Faye authorized her.
00:28:01That's not my signature.
00:28:04The next day,
00:28:06Sienna walked into the hearing
00:28:07with a forged Faye authorization.
00:28:09I stayed anonymous
00:28:10and proved the files
00:28:11had belonged to CrossMed
00:28:12all along with source code
00:28:13from five years ago.
00:28:15Unless Faye shows up in person,
00:28:17who can prove Evelyn
00:28:17didn't add that data later?
00:28:19The server records can.
00:28:20The current evidence
00:28:21is insufficient to prove
00:28:22theft or valid authorization.
00:28:23The pilot remains suspended.
00:28:25The final hearing
00:28:25will be in three months.
00:28:26Faye or a legally authorized
00:28:28representative must appear.
00:28:29Three months.
00:28:30That's also when my seven-year
00:28:31agreement with Grant
00:28:32takes effect.
00:28:33I have to find a third way
00:28:35between exposing Faye
00:28:36and losing Lily.
00:28:38The paperwork's ready.
00:28:39Once Grant is served,
00:28:40the court can start processing it.
00:28:42If all goes well,
00:28:43it'll be done in three months.
00:28:48Lily's transfer cleared early.
00:28:50We got to New York
00:28:50a week ahead of schedule.
00:28:52Mom,
00:28:52I finally get to live with you.
00:28:54I didn't let Lily come to New York
00:28:56until I had Grant's custody signature.
00:28:58and when she arrived,
00:29:00Grant and Sienna
00:29:01were still at CrossMed.
00:29:04Don't come into the lobby.
00:29:05Go to the parking garage
00:29:06and wait for me in the car.
00:29:09I tried to get to Lily
00:29:10before they did,
00:29:11but the elevator doors
00:29:12had already closed.
00:29:15I got there
00:29:16just as Leo shot into the lane.
00:29:18Mia swerved,
00:29:19hit a pillar,
00:29:20and Lily slammed
00:29:21into the car door.
00:29:24Mom,
00:29:24did I do something bad?
00:29:25No, sweetheart.
00:29:27It wasn't your fault.
00:29:28Lily was covered in blood
00:29:30and still afraid
00:29:30she'd cause me trouble.
00:29:32She grew up
00:29:32without a father
00:29:33in her corner.
00:29:34Even hurt,
00:29:35she apologized first.
00:29:39Mia hit him on purpose.
00:29:41Call security.
00:29:42Pull the footage.
00:29:43Leo ran into the lane himself.
00:29:45Take Sienna's statement first.
00:29:46Leo represents the Hale Foundation.
00:29:48This has to be handled formally.
00:29:49Grant was worried
00:29:50about the Foundation
00:29:51and somebody else's kid
00:29:52while his own daughter
00:29:53bled in my arms.
00:29:54He didn't miss the child.
00:29:55He missed his own.
00:29:57Save the full footage.
00:29:58No one keeps Mia here.
00:29:59Call an ambulance.
00:30:02Serve Grant now.
00:30:04Three months
00:30:04was already too long.
00:30:05I'm not waiting
00:30:06one more day.
00:30:09Mr. Hale,
00:30:10Evelyn Shaw
00:30:11has formally filed
00:30:12for divorce.
00:30:13Acknowledge service.
00:30:15Is this because
00:30:15of the parking lot?
00:30:17Because of today
00:30:17and the seven years
00:30:19before it.
00:30:20I'd already said it.
00:30:22But it wasn't until
00:30:23the divorce papers
00:30:24were in his hands
00:30:25that Grant finally realized
00:30:27I wasn't waiting
00:30:28for him to make it right.
00:30:29My lawyer will handle it.
00:30:31Don't regret this.
00:30:33What I regret
00:30:34is waiting until now
00:30:35to file.
00:30:38Hayden wasn't just
00:30:39CrossMed's CEO.
00:30:41He'd been Lily's
00:30:41emergency contact
00:30:42for five years.
00:30:43Every fever,
00:30:44every allergy,
00:30:45every injury,
00:30:45he was the one there.
00:30:46Lily Cross's
00:30:47emergency contact,
00:30:48confirm whether she has
00:30:49any medication allergies?
00:30:50Penicillin.
00:30:51She had a severe reaction
00:30:52when she was little.
00:30:53Mommy, it hurts.
00:30:55Lily's one word,
00:30:56Mommy,
00:30:57made Grant recognize
00:30:58the girl from
00:30:59the Validation Center video.
00:31:00For the first time,
00:31:02he knew I really did
00:31:03have a five-year-old daughter.
00:31:06She's your daughter?
00:31:10Lily Cross
00:31:11is Hayden her father?
00:31:17That's none of your business.
00:31:19Get out.
00:31:20The doctor's still
00:31:21treating the wound.
00:31:22Hayden didn't pretend
00:31:23to be her father.
00:31:24He didn't speak for me.
00:31:26He just kept Grant away
00:31:27so Lily wouldn't be
00:31:28interrogated while she was hurt.
00:31:31How old is she?
00:31:33Five.
00:31:37Someone posted
00:31:37the parking lot clip online.
00:31:39The media's downstairs.
00:31:40Don't let them use
00:31:40Leo for a story.
00:31:41Five means Lily was born
00:31:43two years into my marriage
00:31:44to Grant.
00:31:45His face changed.
00:31:46But when Sienna
00:31:47mentioned Hale Foundation,
00:31:49he still turned
00:31:49to handle her mess first.
00:31:51Mrs. Hale,
00:31:52are you going after
00:31:52Dr. Shaw and her friend?
00:31:56She's not Mrs. Hale.
00:31:58Evelyn is my wife.
00:31:59Seven years.
00:32:00I waited for him
00:32:01to say it in public
00:32:02until after I filed
00:32:04for divorce.
00:32:04When he finally did,
00:32:05it was too late.
00:32:08For seven years,
00:32:10Grant wouldn't let me
00:32:11say I was his wife.
00:32:13Now Sienna's taken
00:32:14that spot on camera
00:32:15and he finally corrected it.
00:32:17Dr. Shaw,
00:32:18are you really Mrs. Hale?
00:32:19For now.
00:32:20The divorce papers
00:32:22were served today.
00:32:23Grant was only keeping
00:32:24a promise to his cousin.
00:32:25He was looking after
00:32:26me and Leo.
00:32:27Evelyn's the one
00:32:27using personal ties
00:32:28to get revenge.
00:32:29Her crossmed project
00:32:30is under investigation
00:32:31for stealing the Fae model.
00:32:32Grant admitted
00:32:33I was his wife,
00:32:34but he didn't stop Sienna
00:32:35from painting me
00:32:36as some jealous woman.
00:32:37Going public
00:32:38wasn't him choosing me.
00:32:40It was just
00:32:40correcting the label.
00:32:41There's no conclusion yet.
00:32:43Crossmed isn't going
00:32:44to answer a media sacus
00:32:45with a minor's injuries
00:32:46or unreleased evidence.
00:32:49You told me
00:32:50at the last event
00:32:51you'd never had a child.
00:32:54Why did you lie to me?
00:32:56This has nothing
00:32:57to do with Lily.
00:32:58She's five.
00:32:59Her last name is Cross.
00:33:00Hayden's still
00:33:01her emergency contact.
00:33:02Is she your daughter?
00:33:03He finally put it together
00:33:05and his first thought
00:33:06wasn't what he'd missed.
00:33:08He decided I'd cheated
00:33:09on him during our marriage.
00:33:11Five years ago
00:33:11in San Francisco
00:33:12I asked if you wanted a child.
00:33:14You told me not to use
00:33:15a baby to keep you.
00:33:16So you went to Hayden?
00:33:20There's a child here
00:33:21and reporters.
00:33:22Block this car again
00:33:23and I'll call the police.
00:33:25Crossmed Legal
00:33:25can take it from there.
00:33:27You knew she was married.
00:33:28I know this.
00:33:29When she needed someone most
00:33:31you were never there.
00:33:33After we left the hospital
00:33:34Hale Legal
00:33:35sent an emergency
00:33:36settlement offer.
00:33:37if I publicly said
00:33:38Sienna didn't break up
00:33:39the marriage
00:33:40and lied that
00:33:43they want to trade my name
00:33:44for Sienna's image.
00:33:45I won't do it.
00:33:46I already told Legal
00:33:47to reject it.
00:33:48Not yet.
00:33:49I'll bring my lawyer tomorrow.
00:33:51We need to separate
00:33:51the divorce from the
00:33:52Faye investigation
00:33:52so they can't use
00:33:53one to control the other.
00:33:56I'm not here
00:33:56to revisit the deal.
00:33:57In front of both lawyers
00:33:58let's be clear
00:33:59the divorce,
00:34:00the media truth
00:34:00and the regulatory investigation
00:34:01stay hot.
00:34:02No one may can separate.
00:34:02Once the statement is released
00:34:04Mr. Hale won't contest
00:34:05the divorce
00:34:05or seek a delay.
00:34:06The Foundation
00:34:06will withdraw its complaint
00:34:08and Crossmed and Hale Health
00:34:09will resume the pilot.
00:34:10So one statement
00:34:11makes the deleted adverse cases
00:34:12and the forged
00:34:12Faye authorization disappear?
00:34:14The cases were just
00:34:15an export error.
00:34:16The authorization came
00:34:16through Faye's representative.
00:34:17You have no proof
00:34:18I falsite anything.
00:34:19Even if Hale withdraws
00:34:20the complaint
00:34:20Crossmed still has to
00:34:21turn the falsification
00:34:21evidence over to regulators.
00:34:23My company will not
00:34:23trade a child's safety
00:34:24for a partnership.
00:34:25Without Hale Health's
00:34:26data and funding
00:34:26the project gets pushed back
00:34:27at least a year.
00:34:29Evelyn
00:34:31don't throw away
00:34:31your future out of spite.
00:34:32He called my principles
00:34:34a tantrum again.
00:34:35I used to back down
00:34:36because I was afraid
00:34:36he'd hate me more.
00:34:37I don't need his approval anymore.
00:34:39I gave up seven years for you.
00:34:41I'm not giving up one more day.
00:34:42Crossmed already activated
00:34:43a second hospital.
00:34:44You have no leverage left.
00:34:46Whether Grant agrees
00:34:47to a settlement or not
00:34:47the divorce moves forward.
00:34:49The final hearing
00:34:49is in three months
00:34:50and Faye's final hearing
00:34:51is that same week.
00:34:52In three months
00:34:53I'll stop being Grant's wife
00:34:54and I'll take back Faye's name.
00:34:59Your marriage is officially dissolved.
00:35:01When I finally heard
00:35:02it was over
00:35:02I wasn't as relieved
00:35:04as I thought I'd be.
00:35:05Ten years of love
00:35:06doesn't vanish
00:35:06with one court order
00:35:07but it can't keep me stuck anymore.
00:35:12Where do you want to go?
00:35:15I just need some quiet first.
00:35:17Okay.
00:35:19Hayden didn't push me
00:35:20to start over.
00:35:21He didn't ask me
00:35:22to celebrate being free.
00:35:24He let me quietly grieve
00:35:25the ten years I chose to end.
00:35:27Later I found out
00:35:28that after the divorce was final
00:35:30my lawyer asked the Hale family
00:35:31to return anything they'd missed.
00:35:34While Miss Carter
00:35:35was clearing out a storage locker
00:35:36she found the old phone
00:35:38I broke five years ago.
00:35:39The screen is cracked
00:35:40but it still turns on
00:35:41after charging.
00:35:42When I left
00:35:43I thought those two suitcases
00:35:44held everything that was birthday
00:35:46and that old phone
00:35:47still held the foolish love
00:35:48I had back then.
00:35:49It wasn't until the divorce
00:35:50was final that he saw
00:35:51how badly I'd wanted
00:35:52to be a mother.
00:35:56Grant saw my pregnancy photos
00:35:58he saw the records
00:36:00from my postpartum hemorrhage
00:36:01and emergency resuscitation
00:36:03those nine months
00:36:05he was never part of them.
00:36:17You were already pregnant
00:36:18when you went to San Francisco?
00:36:21Yes.
00:36:22That night when you asked
00:36:23if I wanted a child
00:36:25were you trying to tell me?
00:36:27Five years later
00:36:28Grant finally asked
00:36:29what I couldn't say that night
00:36:31but by then
00:36:32we were already divorced.
00:36:35We were already divorced.
00:36:36Yes.
00:36:36I asked if we'd had a child.
00:36:39Would you even try
00:36:40to make the marriage work?
00:36:41You never said
00:36:42you were already pregnant.
00:36:43Because you never let me finish.
00:36:51That night I cried beside him
00:36:53till sunrise
00:36:54still hoping he'd turn around
00:36:55and ask
00:36:56now he finally wants the answer
00:36:58but the woman who needed it
00:36:59is still back there
00:37:00five years ago.
00:37:01Was that child Lily?
00:37:03The hearing's about to start
00:37:05whether she answers
00:37:05is up to her.
00:37:07This is between us.
00:37:08This is CrossMed.
00:37:09She's my chief medical architect
00:37:10and a key witness
00:37:11at today's hearing.
00:37:12You don't get to corner her at work.
00:37:18Is Faye here in person?
00:37:20I used to hide that I was Faye
00:37:21because I was afraid
00:37:22Grant would find Lily
00:37:23and fight for custody.
00:37:24Now the divorce is final
00:37:26and the agreement he signed
00:37:27protects our daughter.
00:37:28I don't have to hide
00:37:29behind that marriage anymore.
00:37:31She's here.
00:37:34I'm Faye.
00:37:35I submitted the source code,
00:37:37the access key
00:37:38and every revision log.
00:37:39The data speaks for itself.
00:37:41I'm taking back the name
00:37:42Sienna used to back herself up.
00:37:44That's impossible.
00:37:45Those records could have been added later.
00:37:47The evidence shows
00:37:48Evelyn is authorized
00:37:49to use the model.
00:37:51CrossMed's pilot freeze
00:37:52is lifted.
00:37:53The forged authorization
00:37:54and altered clinical data
00:37:56go to the state prosecutors
00:37:57and the medical board.
00:37:58Sienna tried to use Hale's resources
00:38:00to steal my work.
00:38:01Her own data and signature
00:38:03brought her down.
00:38:04CrossMed confirms
00:38:05Dr. Evelyn Shaw
00:38:06created the core model.
00:38:08Hayden didn't take the credit.
00:38:10He made sure everyone
00:38:11heard my name.
00:38:13After I left Grant,
00:38:14I was finally back
00:38:15at the center of my own life.
00:38:21After you came back
00:38:21from San Francisco,
00:38:22why did you stop working
00:38:23for six whole months?
00:38:29One time.
00:38:30No protection.
00:38:31You went to San Francisco
00:38:33after you got pregnant.
00:38:34Faye went dark
00:38:35for six months.
00:38:36Lily's five.
00:38:36Is she my daughter?
00:38:38Grant had finally put together
00:38:39every clue he'd ignored.
00:38:41But all I could think about
00:38:42was whether the Hale family
00:38:43would try to take Lily from me.
00:38:45I'm not answering that.
00:38:46Then I'll file
00:38:47to establish paternity.
00:38:49I wasn't going to let Grant
00:38:51dump his suspicions on Lily.
00:38:52So I had both lawyers
00:38:54set the boundaries that day.
00:38:55He can ask the court
00:38:56to confirm paternity,
00:38:57but that doesn't automatically
00:38:58change her life.
00:38:59The custody at Adam,
00:39:01five years of care,
00:39:02and Lily's best interest
00:39:03will all matter.
00:39:04You can wait for the court
00:39:05or confirm it now.
00:39:06Either way, I support you.
00:39:08Do the test.
00:39:09I'm not dragging Lily
00:39:10through a long court fight.
00:39:19In three days,
00:39:20Grant will know
00:39:21if he's her biological father.
00:39:22And he'll learn this too.
00:39:23Blood can prove paternity,
00:39:25but it doesn't make up
00:39:26for five years of absence.
00:39:29The report finally proved Lily
00:39:31is Grant's biological daughter.
00:39:33But those five years
00:39:34mean one thing to me
00:39:35and another to him.
00:39:36To me, they were five years
00:39:38of fevers, nightmares,
00:39:39and watching her grow.
00:39:40To him, they were five blank years
00:39:42he never lived through.
00:39:43Being her father
00:39:44made Grant recognize Lily.
00:39:45It didn't make Lily recognize him.
00:39:47The one she still turns to
00:39:48is Hayden,
00:39:49because he's the one
00:39:50who's been there for five years.
00:39:53I'm adding her
00:39:53to the Hale family trust,
00:39:54and I'm changing her school
00:39:56and where she lives.
00:39:57You don't get to change
00:39:58her life like that.
00:39:59You can set up a trust for Lily.
00:40:00You cannot unilaterally
00:40:02change her school
00:40:02or where she lives.
00:40:03You waived primary care getting
00:40:05and residential decision-making
00:40:06authority in writing.
00:40:07If you want that changed,
00:40:09the court has to review it
00:40:10based on her best interests.
00:40:11You wanted out all along,
00:40:12didn't you?
00:40:13So you tricked me into signing?
00:40:16Grant had just acknowledged
00:40:18our daughter,
00:40:18and all he wanted to know
00:40:19was why I hid her.
00:40:21He had no idea
00:40:22I decided to divorce him
00:40:23that night in the ER.
00:40:24If I'd wanted to leave
00:40:25all along,
00:40:25I wouldn't have loved you
00:40:26for ten years
00:40:26and waited for seven.
00:40:28There was nothing hidden
00:40:28in that agreement.
00:40:29You didn't even read it
00:40:30because of Sienna.
00:40:32I called after him
00:40:33three times that day.
00:40:34He remembers now,
00:40:35but he can't take back
00:40:36his signature.
00:40:37The agreement doesn't
00:40:38deny you her father.
00:40:39It only stops you
00:40:40from changing Lily's home,
00:40:41school, or custody
00:40:42on your own.
00:40:43Hayden, can we go home now?
00:40:45Lily knows Grant
00:40:46is her biological father,
00:40:48but he's still a stranger
00:40:49to her.
00:40:50Blood gave him the answer.
00:40:52It didn't give back
00:40:53the five years he was gone.
00:40:55Then his assistant called
00:40:56to say Sienna
00:40:56would lose her position
00:40:57and system access
00:40:58that afternoon.
00:40:59Do it as planned
00:41:00and correct the record
00:41:01about her and me.
00:41:03Grant finally decided
00:41:04to end the lie
00:41:04he'd let stand for years.
00:41:06As soon as Sienna
00:41:08got the termination notice,
00:41:09she called him back.
00:41:10You can't cut me off.
00:41:12I'm pregnant with your baby.
00:41:14Hale was supposed to use
00:41:16the press conference investigation
00:41:17and announce Sienna's removal.
00:41:19Instead, she turned
00:41:20those same reporters
00:41:21into leverage.
00:41:23You and I have never
00:41:24slept together.
00:41:25But everyone already
00:41:26thinks we're together.
00:41:26If you deny it now,
00:41:28they'll say you dumped
00:41:29a pregnant woman
00:41:30for your ex-wife.
00:41:31Grant knew she was lying.
00:41:33This was the price
00:41:33of letting it stand.
00:41:35He stayed silent
00:41:36for seven years.
00:41:37One denial wouldn't
00:41:38make the public believe him.
00:41:40On the live stream,
00:41:40Sienna held up an ultrasound
00:41:41before the termination
00:41:42statement and claimed
00:41:42she was Faye identity
00:41:43she stole.
00:41:44She tried to trade
00:41:44mother of his child
00:41:45for Hale's protection.
00:41:46Grant walked in,
00:41:47said nothing,
00:41:52and put the authorization
00:41:53for an independent exam
00:41:54in front of her.
00:41:57Sign it.
00:41:58You picked the third-party
00:41:59clinic that releases
00:42:00the results.
00:42:01Every camera swung to Sienna.
00:42:02She couldn't refuse in public.
00:42:04She signed.
00:42:05But before the verification
00:42:07even started,
00:42:08her proof was already
00:42:08falling apart.
00:42:09The exam date was the day
00:42:10the clinic was closed.
00:42:13In the end,
00:42:14the exam proved Sienna
00:42:14wasn't pregnant.
00:42:15The ultrasound she showed
00:42:16belonged to another patient.
00:42:18She tried to use a baby
00:42:19to save herself
00:42:19and expose the fake
00:42:20pregnancy on camera.
00:42:21No pregnancy was found.
00:42:23The submitted records
00:42:23do not match her medical file.
00:42:27We were never sexually involved
00:42:29and we were never
00:42:29in a relationship.
00:42:31I failed to correct the story.
00:42:33I waited for him
00:42:34to say it in public
00:42:35more times than I can count.
00:42:37Now the truth is finally out,
00:42:38but it clears one lie.
00:42:40Not every time I was abandoned.
00:42:42You let me attend
00:42:43those events with you.
00:42:43You let everyone
00:42:44call me Mrs. Hale.
00:42:45What Sienna lost wasn't love.
00:42:47It was the status,
00:42:48position,
00:42:48and the fake pregnancy
00:42:49isn't part of this case.
00:42:50We'll continue this afternoon
00:42:52on the forged authorization
00:42:53and altered medical records.
00:42:55She just lost Hale's protection
00:42:57and now the evidence
00:42:58that could send her to prison
00:42:59is right in front of her.
00:43:02The next day,
00:43:03Hayden and I went
00:43:04to the state health department.
00:43:06Grant submitted Hale's records too.
00:43:08By nine o'clock,
00:43:09Sienna's lawyer
00:43:09had only turned over two devices.
00:43:11The encrypted hard drive
00:43:13was still missing.
00:43:14I haven't been able
00:43:15to reach her since last night.
00:43:16Sienna wasn't just
00:43:17avoiding the interview.
00:43:18She took protected...
00:43:22Turn over the route
00:43:23and all vehicle access records
00:43:24to police.
00:43:25For once,
00:43:26Grant didn't cover for her.
00:43:28Once the vehicle went dark,
00:43:30police could only confirm
00:43:31Sienna still had the hard drive.
00:43:32They had no sign
00:43:33she meant to hurt anyone.
00:43:35We'll track the vehicle
00:43:36and the devices.
00:43:37If you find her,
00:43:38don't approach her.
00:43:41Back at CrossMed,
00:43:43we confirmed Sienna
00:43:43was still trying
00:43:44trying to delete the evidence.
00:43:46Every login failed.
00:43:48Her last signal
00:43:49was in Manhattan,
00:43:50but they couldn't
00:43:50pin down her location.
00:43:52She hasn't left New York.
00:43:53Cancel tomorrow's
00:43:54off-site meeting.
00:43:55Move it to CrossMed security.
00:43:57At the time,
00:43:59every sign pointed
00:44:00to her destroying Faye's records.
00:44:01No one knew she'd already
00:44:03shifted from the hard drive
00:44:04to Lily.
00:44:06After Sienna vanished
00:44:07with the hard drive,
00:44:08Hayden moved the meeting
00:44:09to CrossMed's secure floor.
00:44:11Police think she's
00:44:12dodging the evidence sweep,
00:44:13but they still covered
00:44:13the exits.
00:44:14If the phones go dead,
00:44:15these still track.
00:44:17Hayden gave Lily
00:44:18and me separate trackers.
00:44:19Seeing Grant
00:44:20was still our choice.
00:44:22I want to ask him
00:44:23one question.
00:44:27Then ten minutes.
00:44:28You can end at any time.
00:44:30I turned down the property
00:44:31and stock Grant offered.
00:44:33The only thing left
00:44:34is court-supervised
00:44:35child support.
00:44:36Money can cover responsibility.
00:44:38It can't buy our place.
00:44:40I'm not changing
00:44:41where she lives
00:44:42or where she goes to school.
00:44:43I just want ten minutes
00:44:44with her.
00:44:45Where were you
00:44:46when I was born?
00:44:50I didn't know
00:44:50you were coming
00:44:51when your mom tried
00:44:52to tell me I cut her off.
00:44:54He didn't blame me
00:44:55for those five years
00:44:56and he didn't make up
00:44:57some decent excuse.
00:44:59Lily still reached
00:44:59for Hayden at the door.
00:45:01Do you want to keep going
00:45:01or go home with mom?
00:45:02Your call.
00:45:03I want to go home.
00:45:06For the first time,
00:45:07Grant saw another man
00:45:08respect his daughter's fear.
00:45:10Blood got him in the room.
00:45:12Five years of showing up
00:45:13still stayed outside the door.
00:45:14Right before the meeting ended,
00:45:16we found out Sienna
00:45:16had been to Lily's school
00:45:17and followed Grant
00:45:18to CrossMed.
00:45:19She wasn't just
00:45:20after the hard drive.
00:45:21She's after Lily.
00:45:22Lock down the secure floor now!
00:45:24The second the lockdown order
00:45:25went out,
00:45:26the fire alarm
00:45:26hit the whole floor.
00:45:29We found out later
00:45:30Sienna used
00:45:31cloned Hale pilot credentials
00:45:32to trigger the fire alarm.
00:45:33By fire code,
00:45:34the locked doors opened
00:45:34and security moved us out.
00:45:36In the chaos,
00:45:36Grant grabbed his daughter
00:45:37without thinking.
00:45:38Lily didn't push him away,
00:45:39but she kept reaching for me.
00:45:40She could trust his arms
00:45:41for a moment,
00:45:42but she still didn't
00:45:43feel at home there.
00:45:45The second we reached
00:45:46the loading dock,
00:45:47Sienna came crashing in
00:45:48in a Hale Foundation car.
00:45:50The car,
00:45:50the old credentials,
00:45:51the pilot route
00:45:52she knew so well,
00:45:53it made the attack
00:45:53look like a routine pickup.
00:45:55Grant held onto Lily
00:45:56until the stun gun
00:45:57dropped him.
00:45:58When I went for her,
00:45:59I hit my badge,
00:46:00and I saw Lily
00:46:01tap her safety watch
00:46:02three times,
00:46:03exactly how Hayden
00:46:04taught her.
00:46:04Take them!
00:46:06Grant ran after us,
00:46:07leaving blood from his palm
00:46:08across the floor,
00:46:09but the car never stopped.
00:46:10Seven years ago,
00:46:11he could leave me behind.
00:46:12This time,
00:46:13he could only watch
00:46:14his wife and daughter
00:46:14get taken.
00:46:15Watch your watch,
00:46:16Mommy will find you.
00:46:17They took my phone,
00:46:18but Lily's watch
00:46:19and my badge
00:46:19were still transmitting
00:46:20our location.
00:46:21Then they split us up.
00:46:22Anyone coming after us
00:46:23had to choose.
00:46:25Sienna didn't take
00:46:26the hard drive to run.
00:46:27She took it to force me
00:46:27into Faye's back end,
00:46:28erase the original records
00:46:29from the state server,
00:46:30then film me saying
00:46:31I signed the authorization myself.
00:46:32Unlock it!
00:46:33Read the statement!
00:46:34The state server
00:46:34already has the evidence.
00:46:35I can't delete it.
00:46:37Then try.
00:46:38In ten minutes,
00:46:39if you're still not cooperating,
00:46:40I take your daughter.
00:46:41She finally said it.
00:46:42Lily wasn't leverage anymore.
00:46:44She was Sienna's
00:46:45last way to hurt me.
00:46:46Every wrong password
00:46:46added two minutes
00:46:47to the next verification.
00:46:49All I could do
00:46:49was stall
00:46:50and let the watch
00:46:50and badge
00:46:51buy us time to be found.
00:46:52Hayden triggered
00:46:52Crossmed's emergency response
00:46:54in 30 seconds.
00:46:55Grant turned over
00:46:55the hail vehicle data
00:46:56and both routes came up fast.
00:46:57Split up.
00:46:58The child's signal is north,
00:46:58the adult's signal is south.
00:46:59Send Lily's location to Grant
00:47:00and the north team.
00:47:01I'm going south for Evelyn.
00:47:02Whoever finds them first
00:47:03saves them first.
00:47:04Don't wait for me.
00:47:04They didn't argue
00:47:05over who mattered more.
00:47:06Grant was closer to Lily.
00:47:08Hayden had my location.
00:47:09It was the fastest split,
00:47:10the only one
00:47:11that could save us both.
00:47:12Target's confirmed.
00:47:13Move in.
00:47:13By my sixth wrong password,
00:47:15sirens were already outside.
00:47:17The kidnapper was about
00:47:18to force a face scan
00:47:19when the police broke in
00:47:20on my emergency badge.
00:47:21Hayden waited until it was safe,
00:47:23then came in and untied me.
00:47:24Can you walk?
00:47:25Yeah.
00:47:25Lily's at the parking garage.
00:47:26Sienna doesn't care
00:47:27about the evidence anymore.
00:47:27She just wants revenge.
00:47:28Hayden didn't hold me back
00:47:29or told me to stay.
00:47:30He knew I wouldn't feel safe
00:47:31until I saw Lily myself.
00:47:33On the way there,
00:47:33I saw Sienna go live.
00:47:35The hard drive wasn't enough,
00:47:36so she lied about Grant
00:47:37and turned it into a disaster
00:47:38for the Hale family.
00:47:39Back the police off.
00:47:40Come alone.
00:47:41You for her.
00:47:42Fine.
00:47:43Just get Lily away
00:47:44from the edge first.
00:47:45Five years ago,
00:47:46I asked Grant to save
00:47:46our marriage for our child.
00:47:48He wouldn't even listen.
00:47:49Five years later,
00:47:50he's walking towards his daughter
00:47:51and he might not walk back.
00:47:53You're lying again!
00:47:54As the rescue vehicle pulled in,
00:47:56I heard Lily scream,
00:47:57Mom!
00:47:58Then she fell from the top level.
00:48:01The second Lily went over,
00:48:02Grant jumped after her.
00:48:03He covered her with his body.
00:48:05Dad!
00:48:06That was Lily's first time
00:48:07calling him Dad.
00:48:08Not because of DNA,
00:48:09not because of the Hale name,
00:48:10because for once,
00:48:11the man who'd been gone for five years
00:48:12chose to catch her first.
00:48:13Sienna wanted everyone
00:48:13to watch Grant lose his daughter.
00:48:15What went live
00:48:16was her shoving a five-year-old girl
00:48:17and getting arrested.
00:48:18Grant wasn't answering,
00:48:19but he still had one arm
00:48:20locked around Lily.
00:48:21Hayden told the EMTs
00:48:22to stabilize her neck first
00:48:24and handle Grant's internal bleeding.
00:48:25Lily, I'm here.
00:48:26Look at me.
00:48:27Is he going to die?
00:48:28The doctors will save him.
00:48:31I'm going with Grant.
00:48:32You stay with Lily.
00:48:33We'll meet at the hospital.
00:48:33He knew I had to stay with Lily.
00:48:35He knew Grant couldn't lose any more time.
00:48:37Nobody was choosing sides.
00:48:38We just wanted them both alive.
00:48:40Lily held my hand the whole ride,
00:48:41asking if Grant would wake up.
00:48:42For the first time,
00:48:43I couldn't answer her.
00:48:44The net took most of it.
00:48:45Lily only got minor injuries.
00:48:47Grant took the fall for her
00:48:48and spent four hours in surgery.
00:48:49Hayden never asked
00:48:50why I kept looking at the O.R.
00:48:51He just held the line
00:48:52so I could stay with Lily
00:48:53and still get updates on Grant.
00:48:55Sienna couldn't kill the evidence.
00:48:56Fake pregnancy,
00:48:57research fraud,
00:48:58stolen patient date,
00:48:58it all goes into one criminal case.
00:48:59But her live stream's everywhere.
00:49:00They saw Lily's face
00:49:01and they heard her say,
00:49:02Dad.
00:49:03We can move to a private unit
00:49:03at Partner Hospital now
00:49:04or stay here.
00:49:05Your call.
00:49:05Stay.
00:49:05Lily's going to look for Grant
00:49:06when she wakes up.
00:49:07When Grant woke up,
00:49:08he didn't ask about the company,
00:49:09Sienna, or the live stream.
00:49:10He only asked whether Lily was hurt.
00:49:12I told him she was safe
00:49:13and that saving her
00:49:14could not restart a marriage
00:49:14that was already over.
00:49:15I know.
00:49:16I saved my daughter.
00:49:17I'm not trying to trade that
00:49:18for anything.
00:49:18No one at Hale says a word
00:49:20without Evelyn and Lily's consent.
00:49:21For once,
00:49:22he had the power to control the story
00:49:23and he stopped and waited for me.
00:49:24But before we could decide,
00:49:25Lily's school called.
00:49:26Reporters are at the gate.
00:49:26Someone posted her class
00:49:27in pickup time.
00:49:31The school call
00:49:32turned that live stream
00:49:33into a real threat.
00:49:35Lily's learning from home for now.
00:49:37Hayden took the harassment
00:49:38and leaked address to the police.
00:49:40Grant offered Hale PR
00:49:41and security,
00:49:42but I approve every name first.
00:49:44Protect only.
00:49:45No contact with Lily.
00:49:47Evelyn makes every call.
00:49:49He used to decide for me,
00:49:51then call it protection.
00:49:52This time,
00:49:53he put the resources in my hands
00:49:55instead of using them
00:49:57to take my choices away.
00:50:00Once things were stable,
00:50:01Grant had his lawyer
00:50:03reorganize every document
00:50:04he'd legally kept.
00:50:08When I got that list,
00:50:10I realized he'd finally traced
00:50:11how he lost us from the start.
00:50:14Seven years ago,
00:50:15he didn't read the marriage agreement.
00:50:17Five years ago,
00:50:18he didn't even hear me out
00:50:18about the baby.
00:50:20Three months ago,
00:50:21he rushed through the custody papers
00:50:22because of Sienna.
00:50:24Every time,
00:50:25he thought Lily and I could wait.
00:50:28The San Francisco ticket
00:50:30proves the first time
00:50:31he sent me away pregnant.
00:50:33The custody addendum
00:50:34proves the second time
00:50:35he chose not to read
00:50:36because of Sienna.
00:50:39and those deleted ER messages.
00:50:42Only I know how close
00:50:44he came to the truth.
00:50:46The documents can prove
00:50:47what he missed.
00:50:49They can't give him back
00:50:50five years of his daughter's birthdays
00:50:52or me seven years of waiting.
00:50:59if I start now
00:51:01learning to be a father,
00:51:03learning how to love you right,
00:51:04do I get one chance?
00:51:06I waited to hear that
00:51:07from my teens
00:51:08until after the divorce.
00:51:10When I finally did,
00:51:12I didn't need it anymore.
00:51:14No.
00:51:15You can learn to be Lily's father,
00:51:18but we're not starting over.
00:51:20Five years ago,
00:51:21one word from him
00:51:22would have made me stay,
00:51:23but in the ER,
00:51:24he walked right past me
00:51:25to help Sienna.
00:51:26He moved her furniture
00:51:28into our home,
00:51:28and when everyone treated her
00:51:30like Mrs. Halo,
00:51:31he said nothing.
00:51:32That all happened.
00:51:34She and I never...
00:51:37That only clears up
00:51:38one misunderstanding.
00:51:39The place you gave her
00:51:41or the respect you gave her
00:51:43in public.
00:51:45Sienna was the last straw,
00:51:46not the whole reason.
00:51:48What ended it
00:51:49was seven years with Grant.
00:51:51Sure I'd always swallow the hurt.
00:51:54Then what can I do?
00:51:56Respect Lily's pace.
00:52:00And with me,
00:52:01it's too late.
00:52:04I finally closed the door
00:52:05on him as a husband
00:52:06and left him one role
00:52:08he can still earn.
00:52:09Father.
00:52:13The area around the school
00:52:15is clear.
00:52:15The car's downstairs.
00:52:17If you want to talk,
00:52:18I'm here.
00:52:19If not, we'll go home.
00:52:22When I turned Grant down,
00:52:24Hayden didn't push me
00:52:25for an answer.
00:52:26He left both closeness
00:52:28and silence up to me.
00:52:30That was the first time
00:52:31I realized respect
00:52:32isn't backing away.
00:52:33It's another kind
00:52:34kind of steady love.
00:52:38The CrossMed PR director
00:52:40brought the media
00:52:41monitoring report.
00:52:42People online are still
00:52:44asking why Lily's living
00:52:45under a different last name
00:52:46and blaming Evelyn
00:52:48for keeping her
00:52:49from her father.
00:52:52Deleting the address
00:52:53won't stop the speculation.
00:52:54Grant wants to take
00:52:55responsibility publicly,
00:52:57but only with your
00:52:58and Lily's consent.
00:53:00If we stay silent,
00:53:02reporters will go
00:53:03after my daughter
00:53:03for answers.
00:53:05If we confirm
00:53:06the paternity,
00:53:07she'll be back
00:53:08on the whole family's radar.
00:53:10No adult gets to make
00:53:11that call
00:53:12over Lily's head again.
00:53:14That night,
00:53:15I told Lily first.
00:53:19The live stream
00:53:20had already made people
00:53:21suspect Grant
00:53:21was her father.
00:53:24A public statement
00:53:25might stop the reporters,
00:53:27but it would also tie her
00:53:28more publicly
00:53:29to the Hale family.
00:53:31You can say yes or no.
00:53:34Either way,
00:53:35you'll still live with me.
00:53:38If he says it publicly,
00:53:39will he take me
00:53:40to live with the Hales?
00:53:42No.
00:53:43Where you live,
00:53:44where you go to school,
00:53:45and when you see him.
00:53:48That all has to respect
00:53:49what you want.
00:53:51She wasn't excited
00:53:52to have a rich father.
00:53:56After the kidnapping,
00:53:58all she needed to know
00:53:59was whether adults
00:54:00were going to take
00:54:00her life away again.
00:54:03Hayden connected everyone,
00:54:04then stayed out of it.
00:54:06He knew only Lily and I
00:54:08could say who her father is.
00:54:10I'll acknowledge
00:54:11I'm her biological father,
00:54:13and that I was gone
00:54:14for five years.
00:54:16What other boundaries
00:54:17do you need?
00:54:19her medical records,
00:54:20school,
00:54:21and address
00:54:21stay private.
00:54:23No pushing a last name change.
00:54:26No using the trust
00:54:27to buy visitation.
00:54:29And I wanted in writing,
00:54:31you won't challenge
00:54:32her primary residence.
00:54:34I'll sign tonight.
00:54:36You'll see the statement first.
00:54:38I told him Lily's medical records,
00:54:40school,
00:54:40and address
00:54:41stay private.
00:54:41No changing her last name.
00:54:44No trading trust money
00:54:45for visitation.
00:54:48Grant agreed to all of it
00:54:49and said he'd sign
00:54:50the boundary agreement
00:54:51before the statement.
00:54:55Can you tell them
00:54:56my mom didn't do anything wrong?
00:54:59I will.
00:55:01I'll tell everyone
00:55:02I refuse to hear her out,
00:55:04and that's how I lost you.
00:55:06I signed the consent
00:55:09not to hand Lily over
00:55:10to Grant,
00:55:11but to make him
00:55:12publicly take responsibility
00:55:15for the first time.
00:55:18Tell the truth.
00:55:21Grant gave them
00:55:22the version we agreed on.
00:55:25He didn't show Lily's photo,
00:55:27and he didn't make himself
00:55:28the hero.
00:55:30Lily is my biological daughter.
00:55:34Evelyn raised her alone
00:55:35for five years
00:55:36because she tried to tell me
00:55:37and I wouldn't listen.
00:55:39This isn't on them.
00:55:42Evelyn has primary caring
00:55:43and residential authority.
00:55:46I won't ask Lily
00:55:47to change her last name,
00:55:49and I won't use blood
00:55:50to change her school
00:55:52or her life.
00:55:55Stop harassing her.
00:55:57He finally said it.
00:56:00Being her father
00:56:01doesn't erase
00:56:02the five years
00:56:03I raised her.
00:56:05The online attack
00:56:06started backing off,
00:56:08and the reporters
00:56:09outside the school
00:56:09finally thinned out.
00:56:12Hale headquarters press hall.
00:56:14Then Grant sent
00:56:15the whole conversation
00:56:16to my lawyer.
00:56:18The statement
00:56:19protected Lily,
00:56:20and it put the Hale family
00:56:22trust in front of
00:56:23its sudden soul heir.
00:56:25You can refuse
00:56:26to remarry,
00:56:28but the child
00:56:29has to be in Hale's
00:56:30school, medical,
00:56:31and security system.
00:56:33Evelyn decides her life.
00:56:35Then have Evelyn
00:56:36come in tomorrow.
00:56:38If she refuses,
00:56:40the trust will back you
00:56:41in seeking
00:56:41expanded custody rights.
00:56:44Margaret didn't care
00:56:45whether Lily was scared.
00:56:48She cared whether
00:56:49the family could control
00:56:50her last name,
00:56:51her assets,
00:56:52and her future.
00:56:54Hale was ready
00:56:55to take back the power
00:56:56Grant just put down.
00:57:02I agreed to this meeting
00:57:03to get every Hale demand
00:57:04in writing,
00:57:05not to hand over Lily.
00:57:07Hayden gave us the room
00:57:08and legal counsel,
00:57:10but the decision
00:57:11stayed with me.
00:57:13She's the only Hale child.
00:57:15She can't keep
00:57:15the cross name,
00:57:16and outsiders don't get
00:57:18a say in raising her.
00:57:19She's Lily before anything else,
00:57:21not some heir
00:57:21you're waiting
00:57:22to take over.
00:57:23Her name,
00:57:24her school,
00:57:24and her life
00:57:25do not change
00:57:26because of DNA.
00:57:27Margaret wanted
00:57:28to change Lily's school,
00:57:29take over her medical care
00:57:30and assets,
00:57:31expand Grant's visitation,
00:57:33and have her
00:57:33take the Hale name.
00:57:35My worst fear
00:57:36had come true.
00:57:37They didn't see
00:57:38a frightened little girl.
00:57:39They saw an asset.
00:57:44Get Evelyn
00:57:44to accept the plan,
00:57:46and CrossMed
00:57:47gets into every Hale hospital
00:57:48next year.
00:57:49CrossMed is my company.
00:57:50I decide whether
00:57:52there's a deal.
00:57:52Evelyn is our chief
00:57:53medical architect,
00:57:54not a bargaining chip,
00:57:55and Lily is not
00:57:56a business term.
00:58:01That deal could have
00:58:02put CrossMed nationwide
00:58:03years ahead of schedule.
00:58:06Hayden said no,
00:58:07asked for nothing,
00:58:09and handed me proof
00:58:10the Hale family
00:58:11tried to use me
00:58:11as leverage.
00:58:12Sign it,
00:58:13and the trust backs you.
00:58:14Refuse,
00:58:15and the family
00:58:15pulls your voting power
00:58:16and support for CEO.
00:58:18For once,
00:58:19the Hales put the price
00:58:20in front of Grant.
00:58:21He always made me
00:58:22pay for his choices.
00:58:23Now he decides,
00:58:24lose the power
00:58:25or sacrifice us again.
00:58:28Grant shut it down.
00:58:31His lawyer put
00:58:32my primary caravan
00:58:33and residential authority
00:58:34in writing.
00:58:56He didn't use this
00:58:57to ask me to come back.
00:59:02Even if I don't love him
00:59:03anymore,
00:59:05this is what Lily needs
00:59:06from her father.
00:59:10I wasn't about to let
00:59:12two men decide
00:59:12my daughter's future.
00:59:15I filed myself
00:59:17to lock in the boundaries
00:59:18and protect her
00:59:18with five years of care.
00:59:22At the temporary hearing,
00:59:24I submitted five years
00:59:25of Lily's medical,
00:59:27school,
00:59:27and care records.
00:59:29Grant didn't file
00:59:30anything back,
00:59:31and Margaret's deal papers
00:59:33proved Hale was overstepping.
00:59:36Evelyn keeps primary caregiving
00:59:38and residential
00:59:39decision-making authority.
00:59:40Grant gets gradual visitation
00:59:42on the therapist's schedule.
00:59:44School records,
00:59:45medical records,
00:59:46and location data
00:59:47stay sealed.
00:59:50The court kept
00:59:51my primary caregiving
00:59:52and residential
00:59:52decision-making authority
00:59:54in place.
00:59:55Grant gets visitation
00:59:57on the therapist's schedule,
00:59:58and Lily's school,
00:59:59medical,
01:00:00and location info
01:00:01stays sealed.
01:00:03He didn't lose his daughter.
01:00:05He lost control.
01:00:07That was the company's call,
01:00:09not me sacrificing for you.
01:00:10You don't owe me.
01:00:13Hale stripped
01:00:14Grant's voting rights
01:00:15that day,
01:00:16and he didn't fight it.
01:00:20Hayden lost
01:00:20the national partnership, too,
01:00:23but he cut off
01:00:24my guilt first.
01:00:26That's when I knew
01:00:27what I felt for him
01:00:28was more than trust.
01:00:30Next time we see each other,
01:00:32do you want to see
01:00:33my telescope?
01:00:35Okay.
01:00:36I'll be there on time.
01:01:00for six months,
01:01:01Sienna called the fake pregnancy
01:01:03a lapse in judgment,
01:01:05and pinned the kidnapping
01:01:06on her accomplishes.
01:01:09But the livestream she started,
01:01:11the cloned access card,
01:01:12the missing hard drive,
01:01:14and Fay's back-to-end records
01:01:16tie every step to her.
01:01:18She tried to take my place
01:01:20as his wife
01:01:21and stole Fay's name.
01:01:23Then she lost her freedom, too.
01:01:26That's the end of her story.
01:01:28Grant followed the visitation
01:01:30and privacy rules.
01:01:32The court made it official.
01:01:35Lily's life isn't hanging
01:01:37in lumbo anymore.
01:01:38For six months,
01:01:40Grant kept showing up
01:01:41for ten-minute visits.
01:01:43He learned Lily's scared
01:01:44of alarms,
01:01:45likes a blue nightlight,
01:01:47and means no
01:01:48when she says no.
01:01:50He never brought up
01:01:51changing her last name,
01:01:53the trust,
01:01:54or taking her back
01:01:55to the whole family.
01:01:58Dad,
01:01:59can we see Saturn next time?
01:02:03Lily called him Dad
01:02:04for the first time
01:02:05in an ordinary,
01:02:07quiet moment.
01:02:09She gave him
01:02:10that place herself.
01:02:12It wasn't a reward
01:02:13for saving her,
01:02:16and it wasn't a reason
01:02:17for me to go back
01:02:18to Grant.
01:02:20The case is over.
01:02:22We can drop
01:02:22the extra security.
01:02:25I'll still be your partner.
01:02:28But I shouldn't stay
01:02:29in your life
01:02:30because things got dangerous.
01:02:33You want to leave us?
01:02:36I want to wait
01:02:37until you don't need
01:02:37saving anymore.
01:02:41And you still choose me.
01:02:44He stepped back
01:02:45for the first time.
01:02:48not because he was
01:02:49giving up on me,
01:02:50but because he wouldn't
01:02:52turn rescue,
01:02:53work,
01:02:53and staying close
01:02:54into reasons
01:02:56I had to love him.
01:03:00When the door closed,
01:03:02I was scared
01:03:03I'd lose him.
01:03:04Three months passed
01:03:05without stalking,
01:03:06lawsuits,
01:03:07or a new crisis.
01:03:08Faye launched cleanly.
01:03:09Lily went back to school.
01:03:10Hayden only showed up
01:03:11for meetings.
01:03:11Things were finally calm,
01:03:12and that made his absence
01:03:14even louder.
01:03:15Hayden said he'd help
01:03:16me put on the last star.
01:03:18Is he not coming anymore?
01:03:20What we missed
01:03:21wasn't someone
01:03:21who could fix problems.
01:03:22It was someone
01:03:23who remembered
01:03:23the missing star,
01:03:24the extra blueberries,
01:03:26and never asked
01:03:26for anything back.
01:03:29You sure this isn't gratitude?
01:03:31Or just being used
01:03:32to leaning on him?
01:03:34I want to share
01:03:35those quiet days with him.
01:03:36The ones where
01:03:37nothing's wrong.
01:03:38With Grant,
01:03:39I waited for him
01:03:39to turn back
01:03:40and choose me.
01:03:41With Hayden,
01:03:42I wanted to be the one
01:03:43who walked over
01:03:43and chose him.
01:03:44I didn't confess
01:03:45in the middle of danger,
01:03:46and I didn't use Lily
01:03:47or work as an excuse.
01:03:49That afternoon,
01:03:50I only carried
01:03:50one missing star
01:03:51to see the man I wanted.
01:03:53I'm not here about work,
01:03:54and I'm not asking
01:03:55you to protect me.
01:03:56I miss you.
01:03:57Come back into mine
01:03:58and Lily's everyday life.
01:03:59You sure you miss me,
01:04:00not the safety I gave you?
01:04:02I'm sure.
01:04:03There's no danger now,
01:04:05and I still want
01:04:06to see you first.
01:04:11What if this time
01:04:12I'm the one chasing you?
01:04:13For the past ten years,
01:04:15I used to wait with love.
01:04:17This time,
01:04:18I chose it for myself.
01:04:20Then let's start
01:04:20with one date.
01:04:22You can stop anytime.
01:04:25I've waited this long.
01:04:27I don't get to choose
01:04:28the ending for you.
01:04:29He didn't turn years
01:04:30of showing up
01:04:31into a claim
01:04:31on the rest of my life.
01:04:33He just took the first step
01:04:34I chose to make.
01:04:36This time,
01:04:36I didn't have to be afraid
01:04:37of hesitation or suffer
01:04:39to prove I love someone.
01:04:40It was the first time
01:04:41I kissed someone
01:04:42because I wanted
01:04:42to be closer to him,
01:04:43not because I was afraid
01:04:45of losing him.
01:04:48We didn't get married
01:04:49right away.
01:04:50For six months,
01:04:51Hayden and I dated
01:04:52and kept work separate
01:04:53from our life.
01:04:54He didn't replace Grant.
01:04:55He only became part
01:04:57of our routine
01:04:57a little at a time
01:04:58when Lily was ready.
01:05:02Saving you
01:05:02doesn't buy him
01:05:03your future.
01:05:04I want to live with you
01:05:05as your equal.
01:05:06The timing and the answer
01:05:07are yours.
01:05:08Yes.
01:05:09Next spring.
01:05:10And this time,
01:05:11I'll be the one
01:05:11walking towards you.
01:05:13Six months later,
01:05:14Hayden proposed to me
01:05:14as an equal.
01:05:15I said yes
01:05:16and I set the wedding
01:05:17for the following spring.
01:05:18Seven years earlier,
01:05:19my marriage had been
01:05:20arranged by family.
01:05:21This time,
01:05:21who I loved,
01:05:22when I married,
01:05:23and how I lived
01:05:23were finally up to me.
01:05:33Tell me when the date's set.
01:05:36I'll bring Lily
01:05:37to the wedding
01:05:37like we agreed.
01:05:38Grant didn't ask me
01:05:39to come back.
01:05:40He didn't fight Hayden
01:05:41for a place
01:05:41he had already lost.
01:05:42He finally accepted
01:05:43that he could still
01:05:44be Lily's father,
01:05:45but my husband
01:05:45belonged in the past.
01:05:47By the second spring,
01:05:48Grant was bringing Lily
01:05:49to the wedding
01:05:50under their co-parenting
01:05:51arrangement.
01:05:52He knew her allergy meds,
01:05:53pick-up times,
01:05:54and treatment schedule.
01:05:55He'd finally learned
01:05:57that being a father
01:05:57means showing up,
01:05:58not changing her last name.
01:06:00Daddy,
01:06:01are we still seeing
01:06:01Saturn next week?
01:06:02We are.
01:06:03I'll pick you up on time.
01:06:09Evelyn,
01:06:10I'm sorry,
01:06:11and I hope you're happy.
01:06:12Thank you for learning
01:06:13how to be her father.
01:06:15I didn't forgive enough
01:06:16to love him again,
01:06:17and he didn't make up enough
01:06:18to be my husband again.
01:06:20What was left between us
01:06:21was one boundary,
01:06:22respecting Lily together.
01:06:26Lily went to Hayden first.
01:06:29Grant stayed in the place
01:06:30of her biological father.
01:06:33No one was erased,
01:06:35and no one gets to claim
01:06:36someone else's life
01:06:37through blood or a rescue.
01:06:39As a teenager,
01:06:40I waited for Grant
01:06:40to turn back.
01:06:42During seven years of marriage,
01:06:43I waited for him
01:06:44to give me a place.
01:06:45It wasn't until I left
01:06:46that I understood
01:06:47real love isn't being chosen.
01:06:49It's getting to choose
01:06:49who I walk toward.
01:06:51I can't promise
01:06:52to shield you from everything,
01:06:53but I can promise this.
01:06:54Every choice
01:06:55we'll make together.
01:06:56Then I promise this too.
01:06:57I won't stay silent
01:06:58and wait for someone
01:06:59to understand me.
01:07:00I'll tell you what I love,
01:07:01what I'm afraid of,
01:07:02and what I decide,
01:07:02and I'll build a home with you.
01:07:10So, are we family now?
01:07:12If you and Mom want that,
01:07:13we always have been.
01:07:17Hayden and I exchanged rings,
01:07:18and Lily and I
01:07:19built a new home with him.
01:07:21Grant got the chance
01:07:22to be her father,
01:07:22but he lost forever
01:07:24the right to be my husband.
01:07:25Hayden didn't wait
01:07:26for a woman who needed saving.
01:07:28He waited for me,
01:07:29clear-eyed, free,
01:07:31and choosing him for myself.
01:07:33Love that comes too late
01:07:34can turn into regret.
01:07:35It can't rewrite the future.
01:07:38My future is Lily,
01:07:39Fay, and Hayden,
01:07:41the man I chose for myself.
