00:00From living on the streets to owning a mansion in a flash, an unexpected marriage turned my luck around.
00:08Jenny, wait! Jenny!
00:11Jenny, Jenny, Jenny, please, don't throw away all the wonderful years we spent together.
00:15We can make this work.
00:16No!
00:17Whoa, whoa, whoa, who the hell are you?
00:20I'm her husband.
00:21And who the hell are you?
00:23I'm the one who's been keeping your ex-wife's *** on.
00:28Hi, actually.
00:30I was working overtime, I was taking multiple jobs, I took out several loans, all for you!
00:37You wanted designer bags, you wanted a brand new car, you wanted a big fancy house, you wanted, well, everything!
00:43And I was giving it to you, all the while you were ****** with some other guy?
00:47I think somebody needs to be taught some manners.
00:49Yeah?
00:51I'll end you!
00:52I wouldn't recommend doing that unless you want to add to the legal case that you're an aggressive, unstable psychopath who attacks innocent people.
01:00I can't believe that I've been living with such a monster all this time.
01:03Surprise, surprise.
01:04I thought you loved me, Jenny.
01:06Why do you need to take our son away from me?
01:08You don't even consider him to be our son!
01:11Just let me take care of him, I love him!
01:13And give up my alimony? No, sir!
01:15I'm going to squeeze every penny out of you.
01:18Do you know how hard it is to be a single mom raising a child in this big, expensive world?
01:24You ruined this marriage, and now I will ruin your entire life.
01:31You can't do this!
01:34Bye, loser.
01:38Andrew cursed the day they did the DNA test.
01:41They were both surprised by the blood results of his so-called son.
01:44But, he loved him immensely.
01:46He couldn't help wondering where his actual son really was.
01:53Shortly after Andrew's wife ran out on him, his life fell apart.
01:58Jenny took everything from him.
02:00The car, the house, all the money.
02:05Even his job was at risk due to all the lawsuits.
02:10Broke and desperate, Andrew was hanging on to life by a thread.
02:14Oh my God!
02:17I'm terribly sorry, my driver wasn't paying attention.
02:21Are you okay?
02:26I'll pay for whatever damages I've caused you.
02:32I'm sorry.
02:34I'm sorry.
02:36I'm sorry.
02:38I'm sorry.
02:40I'm sorry.
02:42I'm sorry.
02:45Money is not an issue.
02:47Thank you, but I think I'm okay.
02:53We must have different perceptions of what is okay and what is not.
03:01Although dizzy, he was completely smitten.
03:05She was wearing a strange ring, and Andrew felt uncomfortable in its presence.
03:12She was wearing a strange ring, and Andrew felt uncomfortable in its presence.
03:18So what's your name?
03:20Andrew.
03:22Andrew Johnson.
03:24Alright, Andrew Johnson.
03:31I want you to have this.
03:41I know the best doctors in the city.
03:45So just give me a call and I can have them check you as soon as you need.
03:52This can be a lifeline.
03:56So don't hesitate to call me.
04:01Shit.
04:03I'm very late for a meeting, sorry.
04:08Call me, Andrew.
04:12The Browns were one of the richest families in the city, and Carolyn was the sole heir of their vast fortune.
04:19Although only 27 years old, she was the CEO of Brown Enterprises and one of the most eligible bachelorettes in the city.
04:33I own half of this apartment, but I've already filed a lawsuit to obtain your half as well.
04:38You have one week to vacate. Good luck.
04:43How could you?
04:45Andrew's world was falling further apart.
04:50We've received information regarding an ongoing lawsuit.
04:54The reputation of our employees is critically important to us.
04:57You are terminated. Effective immediately.
05:00He was already burdened with a pile of debts, the loss of his son and his marriage.
05:05Now he was unemployed. Soon his house would be taken from him.
05:10I have nothing left to lose. She took everything from me.
05:24Andrew didn't know what to do. He didn't have relatives or friends who could help him.
05:29The only thing to do was to call Carolyn.
05:35I must confess. I was waiting for your call.
05:40What is it, Andrew? Do you need a check-up?
05:44No, Ms. Brown. I'm fine physically.
05:48But I must say, I'm in serious financial trouble.
05:53I haven't been able to pay my bills.
05:56I've lost all my money.
05:58But I must say, I'm in serious financial trouble.
06:03I have no job, no money, and I'm nearing homelessness.
06:10I see.
06:12I was wondering if maybe you could help me.
06:16Help you with your debt?
06:21Is that what you're asking?
06:22Is that what you're asking?
06:24If yes, then you know that I can clear it all in one phone call.
06:33That won't be necessary. I'm only asking for a job, maybe at your company.
06:45Ms. Brown?
06:47Consider it done.
06:48Really? Wow. You have no idea how much this means to me. Thank you so much.
06:54But I do have a favor to ask.
06:57All I want is for you to...
07:01Is for me to...
07:04I want you to marry me.
07:06What? With all due respect, Ms. Brown, this isn't just a simple request.
07:12Sure it is.
07:14I'm going to send my driver over to pick you up. I'm waiting for you in my office.
07:21And we'll discuss all the details.
07:27Andrew couldn't believe what he had heard.
07:30Who was this woman and why would she want to marry a man she had just met?
07:37Ms. Brown?
07:38Ms. Brown?
07:42Do you think my hair is my most interesting asset, Andrew?
07:49Call me Caroline.
07:55You're not a client.
07:58My apologies. I didn't mean to...
08:02It's okay to look, Andrew. I took pride in my appearance. Please take a seat.
08:14Relax. Now we can discuss all the details.
08:20Firstly, I'm going to transfer one and a half million dollars to your bank account.
08:25Please tell me if you need more.
08:28Caroline, absolutely not. That's a lot of money. It's life-changing even.
08:34All I needed was help with a few debts and I'm willing to work for it.
08:38Is there a problem with me to give my fiancé a mere 1.5 million dollars?
08:49It is hardly an inconvenience for me.
08:52Caroline, no. I would not be comfortable with you...
08:55What if you consider it a dowry?
09:00If it would make you more comfortable.
09:02Look, I genuinely don't understand what's happening here.
09:07But just to be clear, I'm not going to sue you for the collision or anything, okay?
09:12I know. That's why I like you.
09:16But do you like me this much?
09:18Caroline, isn't marrying me kind of...
09:22Out of the blue?
09:30Out of the blue?
09:33Do I look like someone who does things without thinking?
09:37Do I seem impulsive to you?
09:40I mean, who am I to you anyway?
09:43So you're suggesting I'm unfit for you?
09:48No, I'm sorry.
09:51Of course not. It's just that it's so sudden and hard to believe.
09:56It feels like there's a catch.
09:59So I'm a liar now?
10:02Miss Brown...
10:04Caroline, look, we're strangers to each other, okay?
10:09I'm just an unemployed man who has nothing to offer to someone as important as you.
10:14How can you trust me?
10:17You know what?
10:21You're right.
10:25Leave.
10:30Leave?
10:33Yes.
10:35If it's not the life you want, then leave.
10:40Alright.
10:45What were Caroline's true intentions?
10:48Why all of a sudden did she want to marry Andrew?
10:54Caroline, I'm sorry.
10:56Truly, it's nothing against you.
10:59And clearly you're a catch.
11:02Maybe in another life?
11:10Andrew didn't know yet that he had fallen into a trap from which he couldn't escape.
11:15What's going on?
11:21Because no one had ever refused Caroline.
11:24Wow.
11:29You are different, Andrew.
11:33And I like it about you.
11:38Who am I to you?
11:42Yeah.
11:45The heart wants what it wants.
12:02I'm not easily dismissed, boy.
12:18Yes, ma'am?
12:20Transfer one and a half million dollars to the account I gave you earlier.
12:25Yeah.
12:26One and a half million dollars to the account I gave you earlier.
12:31Yeah.
12:33Andrew Johnson.
12:35Also, contact an event planner and call the tabloids.
12:42New York is about to see how well the Browns can throw an engagement party.
12:47And who's getting engaged, ma'am?
12:50Myself.
12:52Caroline Brown and Andrew Johnson.
12:56Yes, ma'am.
13:02Hi, I'm sorry I'm late.
13:04Hello. Yes, of course. I'm so happy to help you with that.
13:07You're welcome.
13:09Hey, is Susan there?
13:11Wait over there.
13:18Daughter of Brown family says she has finally found a partner whose identity remains unknown?
13:25She's already found a replacement.
13:28That was fast.
13:30Without money to live on, Andrew's last hope was to see if the bank would extend him a line of credit.
13:39Susan, may I come in?
13:41Andrew! I figured I'd be seeing you soon.
13:48I know, I know. I didn't clear my bills. I don't have enough money.
13:52I'm sorry.
13:54But I have a plan.
13:56No kidding. And I'm sure you do.
13:59What do you mean?
14:01You know, I thought you'd come in here bragging about the good news this morning.
14:07Oh, look at you, pretending to be sad.
14:11Oh, you're going to go full method on me, aren't you?
14:15Susan, I just came here to ask you for another credit card.
14:18Well, of course you are. A platinum one, I assume?
14:22With your new attained fortune, you can have any card you want.
14:26No, what? Wait, I'm confused.
14:30What are you talking about?
14:32You know, you should really get into acting.
14:36Well, maybe now you can. Now that money and time aren't going to be an issue.
14:40Oh, and just so you know, all your debts have been cleared.
14:44And a new card has already been set up for you.
14:46Susan, what are you talking about?
14:49Okay, you can drop the act now. It's getting a little tiring.
14:53One and a half million has been deposited into your account.
14:57I'm unemployed, almost homeless. This can't be my-
15:01Andrew, the money's in your account. See?
15:04The transfer came from a brown corp.
15:07It has been checked twice. Everything is legitimate.
15:11Can't you at least take this win?
15:13This must be Karen's way of trying to manipulate me to marry her.
15:17What was that?
15:19No, nothing. Look, I'm sorry, I can't take that amount.
15:23Can you just send it back to them?
15:25I can't do that. Unless you have their bank account information.
15:29Well, I mean, don't you have it?
15:31Unfortunately, you do need to provide that information to us.
15:36But honestly, I have to say, it's interesting.
15:40What could you have possibly done to receive such a fortune?
15:46Are you the mystery fiancé from the tabloids?
15:49How did you manage that?
15:51Excuse me, Susan. I have to make a call.
16:01Andrew?
16:03Karen, what the hell is going on?
16:05I told you I don't want this money, and I can't marry you.
16:08Andrew, is that you?
16:10Please help!
16:12Enough! I won't be manipulated like this. Not again!
16:14Andrew, please!
16:16Karen, what's going on? Is everything okay?
16:19The ring! The ring! It's burning!
16:21God, the fire! Please!
16:23Karen? Hello?
16:25What is the mystery behind the ring?
16:28What causes the ring to glow when Karen touches Andrew?
16:32Why does Karen want to marry Andrew?
16:34I want you to marry me.
16:36Is she really in trouble? Or is she setting a trap for Andrew?
16:38What will Andrew's ex-wife do when she finds out about this million-dollar marriage deal?
