00:00Shortly after Andrew's wife ran out on him, his life fell apart.
00:05Jenny took everything from him. The car, the house, all the money.
00:12Even his job was at risk due to all the lawsuits.
00:19I own half of this apartment, but I've already filed a lawsuit to obtain your half as well.
00:25You have one week to vacate. Good luck.
00:30How could you?
00:32Andrew's world was falling further apart.
00:37We've received information regarding an ongoing lawsuit.
00:41The reputation of our employees is critically important to us.
00:44You are terminated. Effective immediately.
00:47He was already burdened with a pile of debts, the loss of his son and his marriage.
00:52Now he was unemployed. Soon his house would be taken from him.
00:56I have nothing left to lose. She took everything from me.
01:10Andrew didn't know what to do. He didn't have relatives or friends who could help him.
01:15The only thing to do was to call Carolyn.
01:27I must confess. I was waiting for your call.
01:32What is it, Andrew? Do you need a check-up?
01:36No, Miss Brown. I'm fine physically.
01:40But I must say, I'm in serious financial trouble.
01:45I have no job, no money and I'm nearing homelessness.
01:51I see.
01:53I was wondering if maybe you could help me.
01:57Help you with your debt?
02:02Is that what you're asking?
02:04If yes, then you know that I can clear it all in one phone call.
02:14That won't be necessary. I'm a businessman.
02:17I'm only asking for a job, maybe at your company.
02:26Miss Brown?
02:28Consider it's done.
02:30Really? Wow. You have no idea how much this means to me. Thank you so much.
02:36But I do have a favor to ask.
02:38It's for me to...
02:41I want you to marry me.
02:43What? With all due respect, Miss Brown, this isn't just a simple request.
02:49Sure it is.
02:52I'm going to send my driver over to pick you up.
02:56I'm waiting for you in my office.
02:59And we'll discuss it.
03:01I'm going to send my driver over to pick you up.
03:05I'm waiting for you in my office.
03:07And we'll discuss all the details.
03:13Andrew couldn't believe what he had heard.
03:16Who was this woman and why would she want to marry a man she had just met?
03:23Miss Brown?
03:24Miss Brown?
03:28Do you think my hair is my most interesting asset, Andrew?
03:35Call me Caroline.
03:41You're new client.
03:44My apologies. I didn't mean to...
03:48It's okay to look, Andrew. I took pride in my appearance. Please take a seat.
04:01Felix, now we can discuss all the details.
04:07Firstly, I'm going to transfer one and a half million dollars to your bank account.
04:12Please tell me if you need more.
04:15Caroline, absolutely not.
04:18That's a lot of money. It's life-changing even.
04:21All I needed was help with a few debts and I'm willing to work for it.
04:25Is there a problem with me to give my fiancé a mere 1.5 million dollars?
04:36It is hardly an inconvenience for me.
04:39Caroline, no. I would not be comfortable with you...
04:42What if you consider it's a dowry?
04:47If it would make you more comfortable.
04:49Look, I genuinely don't understand what's happening here.
04:54But just to be clear, I'm not going to sue you for the collision or anything, okay?
04:59I know. That's why I like you.
05:02But do you like me this much?
05:05Caroline, isn't marrying me kind of...
05:09Out of the blue?
05:17Out of the blue?
05:20Do I look like someone who does things without thinking?
05:24Do I seem impulsive to you?
05:27I mean, who am I to you anyway?
05:30So you're suggesting I'm unfit for you?
05:35Now I'm insulted?
05:37Of course not.
05:39It's just that it's so sudden and hard to believe.
05:43It feels like there's a catch.
05:46So I'm a liar now?
05:48Miss Brown...
05:50Caroline.
05:52Look, we're strangers to each other, okay?
05:55I'm just an unemployed man who has nothing to offer to someone as important as you.
06:00How can you trust me?
06:03You know what?
06:07You're right.
06:11Leave.
06:13Leave?
06:16Yes.
06:18If it's not the life you want, then leave.
06:23Alright.
06:28What were Caroline's true intentions?
06:31Why all of a sudden did she want to marry Andrew?
06:37Caroline, I'm sorry.
06:39Truly, it's nothing against you.
06:42And clearly you're a catch.
06:45Maybe in another life?
06:54Andrew didn't know yet that he had fallen into a trap from which he couldn't escape.
06:59What's going on?
07:04Because no one had ever refused to help him.
07:07Because no one had ever refused Caroline.
07:10Wow.
07:15You're different, Andrew.
07:20And I like it about you.
07:24Who am I to you?
07:28Yeah.
07:31The heart wants what it wants.
07:37The heart wants what it wants.
07:54I'm not easily dismissed, boy.
08:08Yes, ma'am?
08:10Transfer one and a half million dollars to the account I gave you earlier.
08:15Yeah.
08:17Andrew Johnson.
08:20Also, contact an event planner and call the tabloids.
08:26New York is about to see how well the Browns can throw an engagement party.
08:32And who's getting engaged, ma'am?
08:34Myself.
08:35Myself.
08:38Caroline Brown and Andrew Johnson.
08:49Hi, sorry to interrupt.
08:51Hello.
08:53Yes, of course. I'm so happy to help you with that.
08:55You're welcome.
08:57Hey, is Susan there?
08:59Wait over there.
09:06Daughter of Brown family says she has finally found a partner whose identity remains unknown.
09:13She's already found a replacement.
09:16That was fast.
09:18Without money to live on, Andrew's last hope was to see if the bank would extend him a line of credit.
09:27Susan, may I come in?
09:30Andrew! I figured I'd be seeing you soon.
09:36I know, I know. I didn't clear my bills. I don't have enough money, I'm sorry.
09:42But I have a plan.
09:44No kidding. And I'm sure you do.
09:48What do you mean?
09:50You know, I thought you'd come in here bragging about the good news this morning.
09:55One and a half million has been deposited into your account.
09:59Where did such a huge amount come from?
10:01Will Andrew get to know who deposited $1.5 million in his account?
