00:00:00You have to be prepared. I don't have long. I'm not going to let you die, Mo. You're going
00:00:17to beat this cancer. Danny, what are you doing? What does it look like I'm doing? Your
00:00:30rent's late. It didn't. It's two days late and you said it wouldn't be an issue. I changed
00:00:42my mind. So, unless you want to pay up with that tight little lot of yours, you're out
00:00:49by tomorrow morning. Please, you know my mom's cancer treatments are expensive and I've never
00:01:02been late before. You should have thought of that before dumping me. I'll get you the money. I have
00:01:15a job interview today and the signing bonus will be more than enough to cover it. Just give me 24
00:01:20hours. Then you better get that job. Tick tock, cupcake. Billionaire financer Robert Montgomery
00:01:44has announced his retirement from Montgomery Enterprises this morning. The company he built
00:01:49five decades ago. His successor is presumed to be Aston Montgomery, his eldest son and heir,
00:01:55who is known not only for his playboy ways, but his corporate ruthlessness. Stella Evans?
00:02:03Come with me. So, you don't have any corporate experience and you didn't even graduate from
00:02:21college? Well, something came up at home and I couldn't. I'm not running a charity, Ms. Evans.
00:02:28I'm sorry, but I can't hire you. Please, I really need the money. So do 400 other applicants. What
00:02:38makes you so special? I may not be experienced, but I'm a quick learner and I really need the
00:02:49money. And I need someone who already knows what they're doing. This interview is over.
00:02:53Hey, you can't just walk away from me, you entitled prick. What did you say to me? You
00:03:05heard me just as you think you're better than everyone else. Shut up. What is that doing in
00:03:30my office? That, Mr. Montgomery, is your love child.
00:04:00I'm a father. What do I do? You said you needed a job. Help me.
00:04:30I can't believe that worked. See, you didn't need my help after all. So the rumors are true. I'm a
00:04:45grandfather. No, father, this is... The board will never let an irresponsible playboy lead the
00:04:50company. You said there'd be no more scandals. I have no choice but to turn the company over to
00:04:57your brother, Clive. No, father, there are no scandals. Father, this is Stella, my fiance and
00:05:08the mother of my child. What the fuck? Excuse me? You expect me to believe this low class woman is
00:05:22your fiance? Do not speak about her that way. I love her. And I'm tired of hiding it. Right, honey?
00:05:31Please go with it. Right. Even in secret, Aston is a wonderful fiance. On the outside, he's a
00:05:50hardened businessman, but on the inside, he's a total sweetheart. Well, only for you. You saw
00:06:01through it the moment we met. Don't mistake me for a fool, son. If I find out you're lying, I will strip
00:06:10you of the company and your inheritance, and you'll have nothing left. Okay, we need to figure this
00:06:24out. We? Oh, there is no we. I am so out of here. You can't go. I need you. You're a billionaire. You
00:06:36can have any woman. Why me? You said you needed money, right? I happen to have a lot of it. Be my
00:06:46fiance and the mother of my child until my father signs the company over to me. Then I will pay you
00:06:51five million dollars. We can go our separate ways, and we will never see each other again. Five
00:06:57million dollars could change everything. It could help me save my mom. Do we have a deal, Miss Evans?
00:07:06Fine. But only because my rent's overdue, and I need you to pay it. Done. I'll have my assistant wire the
00:07:16money today. And you're mine. Starting right now.
00:07:21Excuse me, is this your child? Why are you trying to keep this under wraps here? Step aside. Mr. Montgomery, how'd you hide your fiance and child for so long? Miss Evans, did you have this baby on purpose to trap him? Don't. Ignore me, bitch. Be a good girl.
00:07:51Give me your watch. Get off of her! Come on, sweetheart. You're just a little gold digger, aren't you?
00:08:02You want a quote? Fine. Our engagement announcement was ruined by some grabby asshole with a camera.
00:08:10And one more thing. Touch my fiance again, I'll break more than just your camera.
00:08:16Sir, sir, sir! Mr. Montgomery, can you answer our questions, please? Mr. Montgomery, you cannot ignore us, Mr. Montgomery. Come on now, Mr. Montgomery. Sir, what do you have to say?
00:08:24This place is beautiful. So what do we do now? Simple. We do what fiancés do.
00:08:55Look at me.
00:09:03What the hell was that?
00:09:05This is part of the deal. We have to sell it. I have someone looking into where Emma came from. It should all be sorted out soon.
00:09:12What will be sorted, brother?
00:09:15Clive?
00:09:17Welcome home.
00:09:19This fiancé and baby certainly came out of nowhere, didn't they?
00:09:22What are you doing here, Clive?
00:09:24I came to meet my niece and soon-to-be sister-in-law, you know, since it all happened so fast.
00:09:31Stella.
00:09:34Stella.
00:09:36Stella.
00:09:38Stella.
00:09:40Stella.
00:09:42Stella.
00:09:45Stella Evans, is it? And what trash barrel did you crawl out of?
00:09:56The trash barrel I crawled out of is none of your business.
00:10:00Oh, contraire, mon chéri. It's most definitely my business. The Montgomerys don't associate with peasants. Bad for business.
00:10:10Leave her alone!
00:10:12For what?
00:10:14Care to find out?
00:10:18Care to find out?
00:10:22So, my playboy brother does have feelings. And for a low-class gold digger, no less.
00:10:30Be careful. It's only a matter of time before he dumps you and that baby back into the gutter where you came from.
00:10:42She's cute.
00:10:46Looks just like you, brother.
00:10:53Get away from our baby and get out of our house!
00:10:56Fine. But there's something weird going on here, and I'll find out what it is. The CEO position will be mine.
00:11:04And the first thing I'll do is fire you, brother.
00:11:13Is everyone in your family like that?
00:11:17My half-brother is just the tip of the iceberg. So keep your guard up.
00:11:27I have a few things I have to do. Your room is upstairs.
00:11:33What have I gotten myself into?
00:11:38What have I gotten myself into? At least I'll be able to take care of my mom when this is all over.
00:11:45If there's anything you need while I'm gone, just call. But the nurse will take care of you.
00:11:50How did you get the money for a nurse? It's so expensive.
00:11:54I... I got a job. Don't worry about me.
00:12:01I gotta go. I'll see you soon.
00:12:08Oh!
00:12:15Holy hot!
00:12:22See something you like?
00:12:27I...
00:12:30Miss Evans? Everything okay?
00:12:37Emma needs us.
00:12:40Right behind you.
00:12:48What's wrong with her?
00:12:51Hey, baby. Hey!
00:12:55There you go. Good job, baby girl.
00:12:59How did you do that?
00:13:01She just wanted to be held. You should hold her.
00:13:04Oh, I don't know about that.
00:13:06She's your daughter. She probably wants you more than anyone else.
00:13:11Trust me. I wish my dad was around.
00:13:15I've never held a baby before and she's so little. I don't want to hurt her.
00:13:23Here we go.
00:13:26I know. I know. I know.
00:13:41Okay. Baby steps. Say goodnight to your daughter.
00:13:48Goodnight, Emma.
00:14:02It's the private investigator.
00:14:05The sooner I find out who Emma's mom is, the better.
00:14:10Did the private chef make all this?
00:14:13No. I did.
00:14:17A playboy chef?
00:14:20No. I'm not a playboy chef.
00:14:24I'm not a playboy chef.
00:14:27I'm not a playboy chef.
00:14:30I'm not a playboy chef.
00:14:33I'm not a playboy chef.
00:14:37A playboy billionaire who cooks.
00:14:41Maybe I misjudged you.
00:14:44Not such a prick after all, huh?
00:14:47Maybe life with Aston won't be so bad after all.
00:14:53But back to business.
00:14:57My family is coming over for dinner tonight.
00:15:01They want to meet you.
00:15:03Your family? Aston, I can't.
00:15:05Oh, you can. And you will.
00:15:16This is part of the deal.
00:15:18If you want the money, everyone has to believe that you're my fiancé and the mother of my child, starting with my family.
00:15:29Mom?
00:15:32Mom, can you hear me?
00:15:35My mom's in trouble.
00:15:42Danny, what are you doing? I paid you.
00:15:46Well, I changed my mind when I heard you were checking out with some billionaire.
00:15:56Knock it off. You know my mom needs that medicine.
00:16:00Well, now that you've come into some money, you can pay me more.
00:16:04Two years' rent should do it, I thought.
00:16:07She'll pay you what she owes you, not a cent more.
00:16:15Is this your billionaire boyfriend?
00:16:17Actually, he's my fiancé.
00:16:21And he's rich and powerful.
00:16:25He has a bigger dick than you.
00:16:30You really think you're good enough for him?
00:16:35I only fucked you because I felt sorry for you, and you're done.
00:16:46Stella is more than good enough for me. If you touch her again, I will kill you.
00:16:51Fuck.
00:16:57Those are for my fiancé, and this one's for me.
00:17:05Stella? Mom! Mom!
00:17:11Hey, hey. Stella, you took my medicine.
00:17:17I have it right here, Mrs. Evans.
00:17:21That man will never bother you again. I will make sure of it.
00:17:28And I'm sending someone for your things. They're coming to live with us.
00:17:40Thank you for helping me with my mom.
00:17:44That wasn't part of the deal.
00:17:51Not everything I do has to be about our deal, Stella.
00:18:05Still, thank you. And I'm sorry for calling you a prick earlier.
00:18:11Why? I can be a prick when I really want to be.
00:18:19Speaking of our deal, be ready by 7 p.m. for the family dinner.
00:18:24But I have nothing to wear.
00:18:29I'll take care of that.
00:18:41I'm sorry.
00:18:42I'm sorry.
00:19:08I hoped you'd pick the red. You look beautiful.
00:19:12Thank you. I'm still debating what shoes to wear, though.
00:19:16Allow me.
00:19:43There's one thing missing.
00:19:51There's one thing missing.
00:19:58A ring.
00:20:01May I?
00:20:06Essence.
00:20:08Essence.
00:20:11Essence. Beautiful, but it's too much.
00:20:16It's only for appearances, nothing more. Please wear it.
00:20:31Shall we?
00:20:38Okay.
00:20:51You ready to sell this?
00:21:00Asked in a word.
00:21:04It'll take a moment.
00:21:08Go.
00:21:11I'll be fine.
00:21:26Stella! How nice of you to join us.
00:21:30This is the woman who trapped our Aston with a bastard child.
00:21:35Funny. It's hard to believe that you had a baby less than a year ago.
00:21:41Mother, be nice. I'm sure Stella's trying her best.
00:21:50Oh, I didn't know Aston had a sister.
00:21:55Sister? No. I'm Clarissa.
00:22:00Aston's ex-fiancee.
00:22:05Oh, God. Is she pregnant with Aston's baby?
00:22:12No wonder Aston didn't introduce you earlier. You're nothing like me.
00:22:17And thank God for that. Stella would never cheat on me and get knocked up by my brother.
00:22:22At least we didn't hide our child from the entire family.
00:22:26That's right. Where even is my stepmother?
00:22:30That's right. Where even is my step-grandbaby?
00:22:35You see, Robert, he's as negligent a father as he would be a CEO.
00:22:40She's with the nanny. To keep her from the judgment of people like you.
00:22:44All that matters is our judgment. And bringing in this peasant certainly doesn't help your case.
00:22:52Excuse me? Who are you calling peasant? Being rich doesn't mean you can walk all over me.
00:23:00How dare you talk back to me like that?
00:23:06You can't even control your worthless fiancee. You'll never be good enough to be CEO.
00:23:22Aston is the only person who should run Montgomery Enterprises. Anyone else's CEO would be a mistake.
00:23:28Especially your son.
00:23:38You have upset my fiancee and I won't stand for that.
00:23:42Dinner is cancelled. Get out of my house.
00:23:48Now.
00:23:57No.
00:24:06I'm sorry if I was out of line.
00:24:08No. Thank you for defending me. You didn't have to do that.
00:24:15Of course I did. I'm your fiancee.
00:24:21Yeah.
00:24:25I never should have brought you into this. It's not fair to you.
00:24:32I'll pay you what I owe you. Just take the money and go, Stella.
00:24:39What's going to happen to you and Emma?
00:24:41Don't worry about us.
00:24:42I do worry about you. I care about you both.
00:24:46I'm sorry, Stella, but this contract between us is over.
00:24:54What contract?
00:25:02What contract?
00:25:08I told you what would happen if I caught you lying.
00:25:11We're not lying.
00:25:13Prove it.
00:25:17Prove it.
00:25:20We were just talking about the contract for our wedding venue.
00:25:24So excited to get planning.
00:25:30I see.
00:25:42You've saved me twice in the last 20 minutes.
00:25:47You're not what I expected.
00:25:50What did you expect?
00:25:54I don't know. Not you.
00:26:02Why are you looking at me like you want to kiss me?
00:26:05Because I do want to kiss you.
00:26:13Because I do want to kiss you.
00:26:16That's all I've thought about since you put on that red dress.
00:26:26We probably shouldn't complicate this whole fake relationship thing.
00:26:31Especially since we're not actually getting married.
00:26:36You're right.
00:26:38We'll break off this engagement as soon as possible and we'll both get everything we want.
00:26:46Okay.
00:27:03I have some good news.
00:27:05You're getting married.
00:27:07Tomorrow.
00:27:09Congratulations.
00:27:11By this time tomorrow, you'll officially be husband and wife.
00:27:15Tomorrow?
00:27:18Unless there's some sort of problem with getting married tomorrow.
00:27:22It's just...
00:27:24We're not in a rush.
00:27:26But the board is.
00:27:28A child out of wedlock is a scandal.
00:27:32And one that must be remedied immediately.
00:27:34I hope that won't be a problem.
00:27:44Married?
00:27:46That wasn't part of the deal.
00:27:47I know.
00:27:51But would it be so bad being married to me?
00:28:05Yes!
00:28:07Do you know how many women I would have to beat off with a stick?
00:28:10It would be exhausting!
00:28:12Seriously, Aston.
00:28:14I don't know.
00:28:21Take some time to think about it.
00:28:25But I need an answer tonight.
00:28:35Mom.
00:28:37How did you know when you were ready to get married?
00:28:40I don't think anybody ever is ready.
00:28:45Truly.
00:28:47I mean, your father and I certainly weren't.
00:28:50You weren't?
00:28:52No.
00:28:53We were young.
00:28:55Too young, even.
00:28:58But your father made me feel the way I'd never felt before.
00:29:01He made me feel loved.
00:29:03Valued.
00:29:06Whole.
00:29:20But it didn't even work out.
00:29:23It ended before I was born.
00:29:25And I didn't know what to do.
00:29:27I didn't know what to do.
00:29:28It didn't even work out.
00:29:30It ended before I was born.
00:29:33Just because something doesn't last,
00:29:36doesn't mean you can't enjoy it while you have it.
00:29:45Plus, your father gave me you.
00:29:49Which is more than enough.
00:29:52I can't deny it.
00:29:54I want to marry Aston.
00:29:56Even if it's temporary.
00:29:58He's my family.
00:30:00He would break my heart when it's all over.
00:30:12She just went down.
00:30:17Look, I know this isn't what you wanted.
00:30:19And you deserve to marry someone who truly cares about you.
00:30:24So...
00:30:26If you want to walk away now, I won't blame you.
00:30:32So...
00:30:34Do you have an answer for me?
00:30:39So...
00:30:41Do you have an answer for me?
00:30:43I do.
00:30:47Aston, look at me.
00:30:56I never thought I would get married as part of a contract, but...
00:30:59I said I'd help you.
00:31:01And I'll keep my word.
00:31:06It means a lot to me.
00:31:12I have to say I'm surprised Aston is going through with this.
00:31:16I definitely thought that he would have dumped you by now.
00:31:19He probably will once he sees her in that rag.
00:31:22It was my mother's wedding dress.
00:31:25Of course it was.
00:31:27Only a poor person would wear something like that.
00:31:29I'm surprised your Prince Charming didn't buy you something better.
00:31:32He clearly doesn't care about you.
00:31:41Aston cares about me.
00:31:43And I don't need a dress to prove it.
00:31:45Are you sure?
00:31:47If he really loved you, he would have given you his mother's ring.
00:31:52Is that what he gave you, Clarissa?
00:31:55No.
00:31:57But that's only because I wanted something bigger.
00:32:21From Mr. Montgomery.
00:32:23For his fiancée.
00:32:25Oh my God.
00:32:27It's gorgeous.
00:32:29That's the late Mrs. Montgomery's necklace.
00:32:33That's supposed to be mine.
00:32:35I am under strict orders to allow nobody but Ms. Evans near this necklace.
00:32:41Especially you.
00:32:52You look like the future, Mrs. Montgomery.
00:32:56I do.
00:32:59If only this were real.
00:33:22I know that you and Aston are lying about your relationship.
00:33:27So if you know what's best, you won't go through with this wedding.
00:33:32Aston isn't who you think he is.
00:33:39So if you know what's best, you won't go through with this wedding.
00:33:46Aston isn't the man you think he is.
00:33:48Aston isn't the man you think he is.
00:33:51Whatever money you think you might be getting.
00:33:54Whatever feelings you think he may have.
00:33:58It's all just one big lie.
00:34:00Your vision of the future is not the reality.
00:34:11Thank you for the advice.
00:34:13But I don't need it.
00:34:15I can handle myself.
00:34:17And nothing you say can scare me.
00:34:23Say no to Aston in front of everyone.
00:34:26Or I'll make sure you regret it.
00:34:29Your choice, Stella Evans.
00:34:31Don't make the wrong one.
00:34:47You look beautiful.
00:34:49Hey.
00:34:51Is everything okay?
00:34:53Is it true?
00:34:54Is Aston just using me to get what he wants?
00:34:57Is he just using Emma?
00:34:59Dearly beloved,
00:35:01we are gathered here today
00:35:04to join this man and woman in holding their hands
00:35:07together for the first time.
00:35:09We are here for you.
00:35:11We are here for you.
00:35:12We are gathered here today
00:35:14to join this man and woman in holding their hands.
00:35:17Marriage is powerful in a way.
00:35:19You take Aston to be your lawfully wedded husband?
00:35:31I'm sorry, I can't marry you.
00:35:40I'm sorry, I can't marry you.
00:35:43I'm sorry, I can't marry you.
00:35:57What the hell was that about?
00:36:00Is this all fake, Aston?
00:36:02Every word you're telling me,
00:36:03every look you're giving me,
00:36:04is it all just some charade?
00:36:06Jesus!
00:36:07Is this necklace even real?
00:36:10God!
00:36:12God!
00:36:17Hey.
00:36:19Hey.
00:36:39I have meant
00:36:40every word I've said to you.
00:36:43None of this is a lie.
00:36:46And this necklace?
00:36:50My mother left it to me before she died.
00:36:52She said
00:36:54that I should only give it to someone I care about.
00:36:58Someone I saw a future with.
00:37:10Someone I saw a future with.
00:37:18I'm falling for you Stella Evans.
00:37:21I have been since the moment we met.
00:37:38I don't know how I feel right now.
00:37:40Today's just been a lot
00:37:42and my mind is all over the place.
00:37:46You're right.
00:37:48This wedding's way too much, too soon.
00:37:51Stay here and
00:37:53I'll tell everybody the wedding is off.
00:38:03Excellent!
00:38:05A runaway bride is an even bigger scandal
00:38:06than a love child.
00:38:11This must be a record, brother.
00:38:13Two fiancées down.
00:38:15At least this one made it to the altar.
00:38:19Hi everyone.
00:38:20Sorry to keep you waiting but
00:38:22there won't be-
00:38:23Any more interruptions.
00:38:26Who's ready for a wedding?
00:38:41Okay, let's try this again.
00:38:45Dearly beloved,
00:38:47we are gathered here today
00:38:49to join this man and this woman
00:38:51in holy matrimony.
00:38:53Marriage is powerful in ways
00:38:55you'd never expect.
00:38:57But marriage is powerful
00:38:59in ways you'd never expect.
00:39:01It's not just a matter of
00:39:03getting married.
00:39:05It's a matter of
00:39:07getting married.
00:39:08Marriage is powerful in ways
00:39:10you'd never expect.
00:39:12It's something that makes you feel
00:39:14lucky to be alive
00:39:16exactly when and where you are.
00:39:18It's choosing your partner
00:39:20at every moment of every day
00:39:22and of learning how to love
00:39:24even the darkest parts
00:39:26of another person.
00:39:28A true partner stays with you
00:39:30through thick and thin,
00:39:32in sickness and in health,
00:39:34for better or worse,
00:39:36for richer or poorer,
00:39:38to be your lawfully wedded wife.
00:39:40I do.
00:39:42And Stella,
00:39:44do you take this man
00:39:46to be your lawfully wedded husband?
00:39:54Stella,
00:39:56do you take this man
00:39:58to be your lawfully wedded husband?
00:40:00I do.
00:40:02Good.
00:40:04You may kiss the bride now.
00:40:18I'd like to congratulate
00:40:20my eldest son
00:40:22on his marriage today.
00:40:24Congratulations.
00:40:26Congratulations.
00:40:27And to announce
00:40:29that he's going to be taking over
00:40:31Montgomery Enterprises
00:40:33as my successor
00:40:35and CEO tomorrow.
00:40:37This is bullshit.
00:40:39CEO should be mine.
00:40:43This is your fault,
00:40:45you little bitch.
00:40:47I hope that hurt.
00:40:49Not as much as this girl.
00:40:51You're my baby!
00:40:54Not as much as this girl.
00:40:55Not as much as this girl.
00:40:57You're my baby!
00:41:01What the hell?
00:41:02You ruined my suit!
00:41:03You touch my wife again,
00:41:04I will end you.
00:41:06Now get the hell out of my wedding.
00:41:13Baby!
00:41:15You're just gonna stand there
00:41:16and let him do that?
00:41:18You're right.
00:41:19I should have stopped him
00:41:20before the slap.
00:41:22Let's get out of here
00:41:23before someone else tries
00:41:24to get in our way.
00:41:33Whoa.
00:41:35Are you okay?
00:41:41I'm fine.
00:41:43He barely got me.
00:41:48So,
00:41:50husband,
00:41:52what should we do next?
00:41:55I don't know.
00:42:05I have wanted you
00:42:07since the moment we met,
00:42:10Mrs. Montgomery.
00:42:25Hey.
00:42:28If I don't leave now,
00:42:31I won't be able to stop myself
00:42:33from tearing you out of that dress.
00:42:38Is that what I wanted you to stop?
00:42:48Since the moment I met you,
00:42:50you have consumed
00:42:51my every thought.
00:42:52I can't eat.
00:42:54I can't sleep.
00:42:55I can't work
00:42:57without thinking about you.
00:42:59Without imagining us.
00:43:04Do you want me?
00:43:07More than anything.
00:43:23I love you.
00:43:42Stella, help!
00:43:49The baby's not breathing.
00:43:52The baby's not breathing.
00:43:58Hey.
00:43:59I don't know what happened.
00:44:00One minute she was breathing
00:44:01and the next thing she...
00:44:04Thank God.
00:44:06Hey.
00:44:08Hey.
00:44:09It's okay.
00:44:10She's okay now, see?
00:44:12It's okay.
00:44:21That's the most terrified
00:44:22I've ever been in my life.
00:44:25That's because she's your baby girl
00:44:26and you love her.
00:44:30What if I can't do this on my own?
00:44:33What if I can't raise
00:44:34an entire human being?
00:44:41You can do this.
00:44:42Actually,
00:44:43you already are doing it.
00:44:46All you have to do is love her.
00:44:49That's more than my dad did for me.
00:44:57It's the private investigator.
00:44:59He might have information
00:45:00on who Emma's mom is.
00:45:12Mom.
00:45:14I wanted to let you know
00:45:15that I went through with the wedding.
00:45:17And I brought you a picture.
00:45:22And I even wore your dress.
00:45:24Stella.
00:45:27Oh, you're so beautiful.
00:45:32I'm so glad you found someone
00:45:34to take care of you after my gone.
00:45:36What are you talking about?
00:45:44What's this?
00:45:46A clinical trial?
00:45:48But it cost $10 million?
00:45:50Something like that could save my mom.
00:45:53But how am I ever going to get that much money?
00:46:01I'm so sorry.
00:46:03I'm so sorry.
00:46:04I'm so sorry.
00:46:10There you are.
00:46:13Everything okay?
00:46:15Yep.
00:46:17What are you doing?
00:46:22I have to take a paternity test.
00:46:26I guess we'll know soon
00:46:27if I'm Emma's father.
00:46:29If?
00:46:31Well, they got the footage
00:46:32from the office the day
00:46:33Emma was dropped off.
00:46:35But the woman who was there,
00:46:38I don't recognize her.
00:46:42So you just forgot someone
00:46:43who was there the day Emma was dropped off?
00:46:46I don't know.
00:46:48I don't know.
00:46:50I don't know.
00:46:52I don't know.
00:46:54So you just forgot someone
00:46:55you slept with?
00:46:58That wasn't a good time in my life.
00:47:01And I made a lot of bad decisions.
00:47:05But I've changed.
00:47:07You've changed me.
00:47:10Which
00:47:12is why I need you to come with me
00:47:13to the board meeting today.
00:47:15You keep me grounded.
00:47:21Of course I'll go with you.
00:47:23Okay.
00:47:28Today is about
00:47:29more than my retirement.
00:47:31It's about the future
00:47:32of Montgomery Enterprises.
00:47:34A future
00:47:36that will be ripped to shreds
00:47:37if you allow your lying son
00:47:40to become CEO.
00:47:42What are you talking about?
00:47:46You.
00:47:48You're not the mother
00:47:49of his child.
00:47:53You're not the mother
00:47:54of his child.
00:47:56You're lying.
00:47:58They're both lying
00:47:59to all of you.
00:48:03Stella Evans.
00:48:06Ten o'clock interview
00:48:07with Aston Montgomery
00:48:09for the executive
00:48:10assistant position.
00:48:13Looks like he offered
00:48:14a different job to her
00:48:15altogether.
00:48:17This man would go so far
00:48:19as to marry
00:48:20a complete stranger
00:48:21in order to become
00:48:22your CEO.
00:48:24I don't know how much
00:48:25he's paying you,
00:48:26but it must be a lot.
00:48:28If this is true, son,
00:48:30you're an embarrassment
00:48:31to this family
00:48:32and this company.
00:48:35The board can't proceed
00:48:36with a vote.
00:48:41It's true.
00:48:43Stella was there
00:48:44to interview that day.
00:48:45Me.
00:48:46To see if I was up
00:48:47for the challenge
00:48:48to raising our daughter.
00:48:50But this isn't about
00:48:51my personal life.
00:48:52This is about what's best
00:48:53for Montgomery Enterprises
00:48:54going into the future.
00:48:55And since I've become COO,
00:48:57I have more
00:48:58than doubled our profits.
00:48:59And if that's not enough
00:49:00for you, then I don't know
00:49:01what is.
00:49:05It doesn't matter
00:49:06what you say.
00:49:08Mom already promised me
00:49:09the position of CEO
00:49:10would be mine.
00:49:12Enough.
00:49:15We will vote now.
00:49:18Is there a vote for Clive?
00:49:22And for Aston?
00:49:32It's a tie.
00:49:34So it all comes down
00:49:35to my father.
00:49:38And I have decided.
00:49:44The new CEO
00:49:45of Montgomery Enterprises
00:49:48is
00:49:50The new CEO
00:49:51of Montgomery Enterprises
00:49:54is
00:49:57Aston Montgomery.
00:50:03What about me?
00:50:04I've looked
00:50:05at the financials.
00:50:07You've spent more time
00:50:08at the country club
00:50:09than in the boardroom.
00:50:11It's not my fault
00:50:12their Cobb salads
00:50:13are excellent.
00:50:15And the boardroom
00:50:16is boring.
00:50:18And the boardroom
00:50:19is boring.
00:50:24Come on.
00:50:26Congratulations, Aston.
00:50:28The new CEO
00:50:29of Montgomery Enterprises.
00:50:31But make me doubt
00:50:32anything else
00:50:33and I'll rip everything
00:50:34away from you two
00:50:35without hesitation.
00:50:48So what's your first act
00:50:49as CEO?
00:50:52I violate every page
00:50:53of the HR handbook.
00:50:54That's a good thing
00:50:55you never gave me that job.
00:51:02I need you.
00:51:07We can't.
00:51:08Somebody could walk in.
00:51:09So?
00:51:10So what?
00:51:11Remember what your dad said?
00:51:12We can't afford
00:51:13another scandal.
00:51:14We can't afford
00:51:15another scandal.
00:51:16We can't afford
00:51:17another scandal.
00:51:23Aston.
00:51:25The board would like to see you
00:51:26to go over some financials.
00:51:28Of course.
00:51:43Knock, knock.
00:51:46I've never said
00:51:47if you're here to bully me
00:51:48I am not in the mood.
00:51:49That's not why I'm here.
00:51:51I'm here as a courtesy.
00:51:53You deserve the truth
00:51:54and clearly Aston
00:51:55isn't going to give it to you.
00:52:00This baby isn't Clive's.
00:52:03It's Aston's.
00:52:13What the hell
00:52:14are you talking about?
00:52:15It's Aston's.
00:52:16Well we clearly couldn't tell you
00:52:17until the roost was over
00:52:18until he became CEO.
00:52:21But now that it's all over
00:52:22and Aston got what he wanted
00:52:24we don't need you anymore.
00:52:28He doesn't need you anymore.
00:52:43I don't believe you.
00:52:45Believe Aston then.
00:52:47Go ahead.
00:52:48Open that desk drawer.
00:53:01Oh my God.
00:53:02He signed the divorce papers.
00:53:05Clarissa's telling the truth.
00:53:15You can go now.
00:53:27Sweet Emma.
00:53:30I'm going to miss you so much.
00:53:33What's going on?
00:53:35I'm saying goodbye to Emma
00:53:37and then I'm out of here
00:53:38just like you want me to be.
00:53:45Stella why are you packing?
00:53:46Here.
00:53:47I signed them.
00:53:48You don't have to worry
00:53:49about me anymore.
00:53:50What are you talking about?
00:53:51Come on Aston.
00:53:52You used me
00:53:53to get everything you wanted.
00:53:55I was a fool to think
00:53:56we could ever be together.
00:53:57That we could ever
00:53:58have a family together.
00:53:59Oh and by the way
00:54:01congratulations on the baby.
00:54:03I hope you and Clarissa
00:54:04are really happy together.
00:54:06Wait.
00:54:08Wait.
00:54:13Please.
00:54:14Let me explain.
00:54:22What could you possibly
00:54:23have to say to me?
00:54:27There is nothing
00:54:28and will never be anything
00:54:29between me and Clarissa
00:54:30ever again.
00:54:31I'm not even the father
00:54:32of the baby.
00:54:33I'm not even the father
00:54:34of the baby.
00:54:35I'm not even the father
00:54:36of her child.
00:54:37And these
00:54:38I have these drawn up
00:54:39the day I met you before.
00:54:40I knew this could be
00:54:41anything more than a contract.
00:54:43And this just
00:54:44just take it.
00:54:47Please just take everything out.
00:54:48All I want
00:54:49is you and Emma.
00:54:50I could take or leave
00:54:51anything else.
00:54:53You don't mean that.
00:54:54Of course I mean it.
00:54:56I have meant
00:54:57every word
00:54:58I have said to you.
00:55:00I'm in Stella.
00:55:01I'm all in.
00:55:03Are you?
00:55:07I'm in Stella.
00:55:08I'm all in.
00:55:10Are you?
00:55:18Yeah, I'm all in.
00:55:24Yes.
00:55:36The paternity results are in.
00:55:40I'm not Emma's father.
00:55:51The paternity results are in.
00:55:55I'm not Emma's father.
00:55:58I'm not Emma's father.
00:56:04I can't believe I'm not her father.
00:56:09If she doesn't belong to me, then...
00:56:12why would that woman have shown up at my office
00:56:14and made me believe she was mine?
00:56:27I can't tell you why this is happening, Aston.
00:56:41But Emma's lucky to have you as a dad.
00:56:44Biological or not.
00:56:48We need to find the truth.
00:56:50Dahlia's behind it all.
00:57:02I'm not telling you anything.
00:57:04This isn't a game, Dahlia.
00:57:05She's a child.
00:57:06Where did Emma come from?
00:57:08Step down as CEO and I'll tell you.
00:57:15Step down as CEO and I'll tell you.
00:57:17Are you kidding me?
00:57:19This is way bigger than a CEO position.
00:57:21This is a child's life you're messing with.
00:57:24Shut up, you little trill.
00:57:27If you hadn't come along pretending to be her mother,
00:57:30the scandal would have proceeded as planned.
00:57:33And that little child would be back at the orphanage,
00:57:36right where she belonged.
00:57:38Orphanage?
00:57:40That's right.
00:57:41The baby's trash, just like you.
00:57:50Step down as CEO and I'll tell you.
00:58:00My hair!
00:58:07Aston McGovern, you better get control of your little wife or else...
00:58:10Or nothing!
00:58:12You will not speak about my wife or my family that way.
00:58:15Get out.
00:58:20Step down as CEO and I'll tell you.
00:58:29Call every orphanage in the city until you find one that's missing a baby.
00:58:42It's okay.
00:58:44It's okay, we'll figure this out.
00:58:47Mama.
00:58:49Oh my God, did she just call me Mama?
00:58:51She's yours if you want her to be.
00:58:57I want to be, but...
00:59:00until we figure out what's going on, I can't get attached.
00:59:05Mama.
00:59:06I understand.
00:59:10Mr. Montgomery! Mr. Montgomery!
00:59:12Mr. Montgomery!
00:59:13Mr. Montgomery, what can you say about the recent allegations that
00:59:16Ms. Evans is not the mother of your son's child?
00:59:20Mr. Montgomery!
00:59:21You can't ignore us, Mr. Montgomery!
00:59:28What's going on?
00:59:30The press is having a field day out here.
00:59:32I told you to. No more scandals!
00:59:35What are you talking about?
00:59:37I went out on a limb for you, son.
00:59:39I trusted you.
00:59:41And this has been a lie the whole time?
00:59:45You say she's the mother of your child?
00:59:47Prove it, or I'll expect you to step down as CEO tomorrow morning.
00:59:54How do we prove it?
00:59:57Simple.
00:59:59Take a maternity test.
01:00:06How do we prove it?
01:00:08Simple.
01:00:10Take a maternity test.
01:00:19Mr. Montgomery!
01:00:20We're not going away, Mr. Montgomery!
01:00:22Mr. Montgomery!
01:00:23Come on, now.
01:00:25Whoa, whoa, whoa.
01:00:27Okay.
01:00:29Aston.
01:00:31If I take a maternity test, they're gonna know that Emma's not mine,
01:00:34and then we may lose her.
01:00:36Forever.
01:00:38No.
01:00:45We should have never lied in the first place.
01:00:50Ah!
01:00:51Ah!
01:00:53Mom!
01:00:55Mom!
01:00:58Ah!
01:00:59My mom is dying!
01:01:02Mom.
01:01:06My head is so warm.
01:01:09It's okay.
01:01:18My heart was racing.
01:01:20I was so scared.
01:01:23It's okay.
01:01:27It's okay.
01:01:28It's all gonna be okay.
01:01:32It's okay.
01:01:42Hey.
01:01:44My mom's getting worse.
01:01:48She needs this experimental treatment, but we can't afford it, so...
01:01:54Why didn't you tell me?
01:01:58I didn't want to be a burden to you.
01:02:00You can never be a burden.
01:02:03How much does the treatment cost?
01:02:10Ten million dollars.
01:02:13I'll pay it.
01:02:14Every penny.
01:02:22I'll pay it.
01:02:23Every penny.
01:02:26Aston.
01:02:27Like I said.
01:02:29Money doesn't matter.
01:02:30I would do anything for you.
01:02:31Anything for our family.
01:02:40You have no idea what this means to me.
01:02:52How do you always know just what to say to make me feel better?
01:02:56Because I know you.
01:02:58I know what you want.
01:02:59I know what you need.
01:03:01That's what happens to someone when you...
01:03:06When you...
01:03:08When you what?
01:03:11When you love someone.
01:03:14And I love you, Stella Evans.
01:03:22And I love you, Stella Evans.
01:03:29You love me?
01:03:33I do.
01:03:36I can't believe it's taking me so long to say it.
01:03:44Please tell me you feel the same.
01:03:53I don't know what I'm feeling.
01:03:56I don't know what I'm feeling.
01:03:59It's all just...
01:04:00It's too much.
01:04:04I understand.
01:04:13Hi, I'd like to pay a bill for Mary Evans.
01:04:18It has.
01:04:21By who?
01:04:25I see.
01:04:46A year ago, I gave up my baby girl.
01:04:51I had no choice, and it broke my heart.
01:04:54The chances are almost impossible, but I have to know.
01:04:59Could Emma be my daughter?
01:05:12Hello?
01:05:13I'd like to schedule a maternity test.
01:05:21Hey, Stella, do you...
01:05:25Everything okay?
01:05:26Fine.
01:05:31You seem...
01:05:33off.
01:05:51I'm just stressed.
01:05:56I just can't stop thinking about Emma's mother,
01:05:58and how our lives could come crashing down over some maternity test.
01:06:03Then don't take it.
01:06:04What?
01:06:06No, I can't ask you to do that. That's not fair to you.
01:06:11Don't worry about what's fair to...
01:06:13It's all I'm worried about.
01:06:15You mean more to me than this CEO position.
01:06:19He's trying to help, but...
01:06:21if Emma's somehow mine, I can save Aston's job and his reputation.
01:06:27Just...
01:06:28don't do anything rash, okay?
01:06:31We still have until tomorrow to figure it out.
01:06:37I need to ask.
01:06:40Does the name Andrew Beaumont mean anything to you?
01:06:44No.
01:06:46Should it?
01:06:48Well...
01:06:49he paid for your mother's treatment.
01:06:52All...
01:06:53ten million.
01:07:07Mom?
01:07:09Who's Andrew Beaumont?
01:07:15How do you know about him?
01:07:18He paid for your treatment.
01:07:20Who is he?
01:07:25Mom?
01:07:27Mom?
01:07:28Mom!
01:07:30Someone call a doctor!
01:07:32Mom!
01:07:49I spoke with the doctors.
01:07:54She's been put in a medically induced coma until the swelling in her brain subsides.
01:08:00It's all my fault if I wouldn't have pushed her.
01:08:02No, Estella. It is not your fault.
01:08:05I'm sorry.
01:08:15I know. I know. And I know she's sick.
01:08:17I just wish there was something I could do.
01:08:19She's with the doctors now.
01:08:21She's getting the treatment she needs.
01:08:24It'll all be fine.
01:08:27No matter how much you keep blaming yourself.
01:08:30I'll say it again.
01:08:33It's not your fault.
01:08:36It's not your fault.
01:08:37It's not your fault.
01:09:04Okay, Emma.
01:09:06Time to learn the truth.
01:09:15In breaking news, CEO Aston Montgomery has called a last-minute press conference to address the future of Montgomery Enterprises.
01:09:22Reporters have it on good authority that he is prepared to step down as CEO,
01:09:26handing the company over to his half-brother, Clive Montgomery, in the wake of a paternity scandal.
01:09:36Clive Montgomery?
01:09:42Yes.
01:09:44Is he here?
01:09:48Yes.
01:09:49Oh my God.
01:09:52I can save him.
01:09:57Ma'am. Ma'am. How do you answer the allegation that you saved him?
01:10:01What do you say about the allegation that accusations are against you?
01:10:04Mr. Montgomery, you do understand that not forcing your wife to take a maternity test
01:10:09is an admission of guilt, right? Which means you've been lying to everyone.
01:10:15Wait! We're not lying. I took the test. I have the results right here.
01:10:26I have the results right here.
01:10:31Hey! You know how much I'm willing to pay for those?
01:10:34Not enough. Trust me.
01:10:44You took the maternity test? Why?
01:10:46I asked him. There's something I need to tell you.
01:10:48Show us the results, sweetheart. Prove your husband's not lying.
01:10:57I don't owe anyone proof. Believe me or don't. But I am Emma's mother.
01:11:02I believe you. Don't even think about it, Dahlia.
01:11:14This is so sweet. If only it mattered.
01:11:21You're too late, Stella. Aston already stepped down.
01:11:32You already stepped down? Yes. To protect you. To protect Emma.
01:11:38Aston, we were fine. All you've ever wanted to do is be safe.
01:11:41To be a great husband to you and a great father to Emma.
01:11:45That's all that matters to me. We can figure out the rest.
01:11:49It looks like you're working for me now, brother. I own the company now. Which means I owe you.
01:11:59Not quite. I just received an offer from Montgomery Enterprises. One that I couldn't refuse.
01:12:09Meet our buyer. Andrew Beaumont.
01:12:19Stella's father.
01:12:20Stella? You look just like your mother.
01:12:26This is ridiculous. You're trying to tell me that Stella's related to a billionaire?
01:12:32Ha! She's nothing but a piece of trash. Don't speak about my daughter that way.
01:12:39Your daughter? How dare you call me that?
01:12:42I'm not your daughter. I'm your father.
01:12:47Your daughter? How dare you call me that? You left mom and I.
01:12:52No. Stella, I never left you. Your mother. She kicked me out.
01:13:00Because I wasn't the husband or the father that I needed to be. But I'm here now.
01:13:07To make it up to you. This company belongs to me.
01:13:11Not this low-class peasant bitch.
01:13:15Ow! My baby. Damn, that felt good.
01:13:20Get out of my office or I'll have you arrested for assault.
01:13:24Actually, the office belongs to my daughter now. As does the company.
01:13:33What?
01:13:33I'm the CEO of Montgomery Enterprises?
01:13:47I'm the CEO of Montgomery Enterprises?
01:13:54Oh yes. Which means you get to decide how we get rid of Clive.
01:14:03You're fired. Effective immediately.
01:14:25You! You can't do that!
01:14:28Montgomery Enterprises belongs to her. She can do whatever she wants.
01:14:34Oh! This can't be happening. I planned everything perfectly.
01:14:47That little orphan would have made the perfect scandal if not for Stella interfering.
01:14:54And you! You were supposed to convince that little bitch that you were pregnant with
01:14:59Aston's baby. But no! You failed and fucked us all.
01:15:06I didn't. I...
01:15:09Clive, Clarissa, get the hell out of my office.
01:15:12You too, Dahlia. Get out!
01:15:14You can't kick me out. I'm Robert's wife.
01:15:19Not anymore. I want a divorce.
01:15:25What? This...
01:15:29I always thought she looked just like you when she was sleeping.
01:15:46I never thought I'd see her again.
01:15:51I never wanted to give her up, but...
01:15:53When mom got sick and the medical bills, I just... I knew we couldn't afford it.
01:16:03That's all in the past.
01:16:06But I want to talk about our future.
01:16:12How would you feel about one more?
01:16:23This house is pretty big. Why stop at one?
01:16:28I like the way you think.
01:16:53So, what's your first order of business as CEO?
01:16:59Well, since I've already violated the employee handbook...
01:17:03Twice.
01:17:08I was thinking we could talk business.
01:17:12No one knows more about Montgomery Enterprises than you.
01:17:15I was hoping you might show me the ropes.
01:17:25I'd be happy to.
01:17:30Let's violate the handbook one more time.
01:17:45And when it's finally time, it's just more of the same.
01:17:50Gotta wrestle the day, no. I've said it a thousand times.
01:18:15I'm pregnant.
01:18:37Hey.
01:18:39Your mother and I were just catching up.
01:18:41I still can't believe this.
01:18:46Forgive me for not telling you about your father sooner.
01:18:50When I got sick, I decided to write him.
01:18:53Forgiving him.
01:18:57I never thought you would.
01:19:01And I hope you can forgive me too.
01:19:11You saved me and my family. Of course I'll forgive you.
01:19:26You know, speaking of family, I'd really like to meet my grandbaby.
01:19:36Which one?
01:19:36Austin.
01:19:44Stella!
01:19:49Austin, your assistant called and said it was an emergency.
01:19:54Stella Evans?
01:19:57Yes.
01:20:02Come with me.
01:20:07The last time I heard those words, I got roped into a fake marriage.
01:20:17Well, this time, I'm hoping you'll say yes to a real one.
01:20:22Come on.
01:20:34Austin, is that your mother's ring?
01:20:36It is. And you're the only person who has ever been worthy of it.
01:20:44Stella Evans, ever since you stepped into my office, you have changed the course of my life.
01:20:48You have given me a beautiful child.
01:20:52Children.
01:20:55I'm pregnant.
01:21:01I want forever with you. No deals. No schemes. Just us.
01:21:08Will you marry me?
01:21:19I can't.
01:21:23It's just, we've done this whole thing backwards. I want us to take our time.
01:21:33Okay. I can be patient.
01:21:38But when you're ready for forever, let me know. Because I'm all in, Stella Evans.
