00:00:00Did you get me an escort?
00:00:14Enjoy!
00:00:15To your gran, she's in her right and um, keep the change.
00:00:21I know it's been five years, but does she really not remember me?
00:00:25She's not just a random girl.
00:00:27She's Serena Monroe, and she thinks that my family killed her mother.
00:00:31Before she sees me as the Jesse Ross, I need a chance to show her who I really am.
00:00:36It's Monroe!
00:00:37Why didn't you tell me that your husband was um, so handsome?
00:00:41Where do you live?
00:00:44Fuck, I just pulled over from some random neighborhood.
00:00:48I don't actually live here.
00:00:50What the fuck is going on?
00:00:52Jesse Ross.
00:00:53How do you always end up being at the right place at the right time?
00:00:57Because I only do it for the right person.
00:01:00Are there any other secrets you're hiding from me, Jesse Ross?
00:01:04I guess we'll find out.
00:01:27Thank you so much.
00:01:30Okay, bye bye.
00:01:32Hi.
00:01:33I'm looking for my fiancé, his name's Ken Snyder.
00:01:36What room is he in?
00:01:38I'm sorry miss, I can't provide the information of our guests, even if he is your fiancé.
00:01:43Listen, I know for a fact that he's upstairs screwing another woman.
00:01:48I'm gonna tell you something else.
00:01:50That woman is probably my half-sister.
00:01:52I'm supposed to get married to him next week, and we haven't even had sex because he said
00:01:56that he's saving himself for marriage.
00:01:58Now I need concrete evidence that this asshole is cheating on me, so what do you say?
00:02:03Can you help a sister out?
00:02:06You didn't get this from me.
00:02:08Of course not.
00:02:14Man, I wish I could go with her.
00:02:21Oh baby, I'm coming.
00:02:25I'm coming.
00:02:30Oh my god, baby, that was so good.
00:02:34Gosh, but it just makes me even more pissed knowing that you're getting married to Serena next week.
00:02:39I really can't stand the thought of you having sex with her.
00:02:42How are you gonna get out of fucking her now?
00:02:44I know, sweetheart, but I'm doing this for us.
00:02:47Serena's mother stated in her will that she has to be married by 28 to take over the company.
00:02:53She's turning 28 in a week.
00:02:55This is just temporary.
00:02:57Once I take her company, I'll divorce her.
00:03:00Then you and I can be together.
00:03:02You promise?
00:03:03I promise you I won't touch her.
00:03:06I'll just tell her I can't get it up or something.
00:03:16You two are disgusting.
00:03:18Here, take a shower.
00:03:21What the fuck, Serena? What the hell are you doing here?
00:03:24You're asking me that after I catch you in bed with my fiancé?
00:03:27Really, Carol?
00:03:28You're asking me that after I catch you in bed with my fiancé?
00:03:31And Ken, my sister?
00:03:33Get off your high horse, Serena.
00:03:35Your father arranged our engagement so you can keep your mother's company.
00:03:38It's not like we're in love.
00:03:39That may be true, but I did trust you.
00:03:41I'm not marrying a cheater.
00:03:43The engagement is off.
00:03:45Good luck finding a husband in less than a week.
00:03:47You can say goodbye to your company.
00:03:51What the fuck, Serena?
00:03:52I'm never letting go of my mother's company.
00:03:55Ever.
00:03:56Test me again, and you'll see what I'm capable of.
00:04:04That bitch.
00:04:09Lynn, could you meet me at the Ross Hotel bar?
00:04:12Now.
00:04:16And then he has the audacity to tell me I'm a bummer, too.
00:04:19Okay, Serena, I get it.
00:04:21You got cheated on.
00:04:22But, honestly, drinking is not going to help.
00:04:25Something else will.
00:04:28What are you talking about, Lynn?
00:04:29I got you a surprise.
00:04:31It's waiting for you in room 1011.
00:04:33Or, should I say, he is...
00:04:38Did you get me an escort?
00:04:46Did you get me an escort?
00:04:49Lynn, I don't need an escort.
00:04:52What I need right now is to find a way that I'm going to get married in a week
00:04:55so I can take over my mother's company.
00:04:57Come on, Serena, you're too stressed.
00:04:59You need to let loose.
00:05:00Have some fun first.
00:05:03I think our ideas of fun don't align.
00:05:07Just go.
00:05:08Have some fun with him and relax in 1011.
00:05:10Trust me.
00:05:11Go, go.
00:05:17This is crazy.
00:05:19I'm not going to get there.
00:05:20He'll be waiting for you.
00:05:22Check out his at 11am.
00:05:24Enjoy.
00:05:28This is fucking crazy.
00:05:45It's you.
00:05:49What's your name again?
00:05:53It's you.
00:05:54Wow, where did Lynn find you?
00:06:04How did you find me?
00:06:06I didn't find you.
00:06:07Lynn did.
00:06:08Lynn did?
00:06:09That's me.
00:06:14Hello?
00:06:15You there yet?
00:06:16Yeah, I'm here.
00:06:17Hello?
00:06:18You there yet?
00:06:19Yeah.
00:06:20And he is super hot.
00:06:22Thank you, bestie.
00:06:24Have fun.
00:06:27How did you even...
00:06:28Shh.
00:06:29Just...
00:06:30No talking.
00:06:31Let's just enjoy each other's company tonight.
00:06:44Hello?
00:06:45What do you mean no show?
00:06:46She said she was there already.
00:06:47Well, I've been here for 30 minutes and no one is here.
00:06:50I'm leaving.
00:06:51I'm charging you a $500 cash laser fee.
00:06:53Goodbye.
00:06:55Hello?
00:06:57If she's not there, then where the hell is she?
00:07:00Okay, one second.
00:07:16God, what happened last night?
00:07:46I have to get out of here.
00:08:04Leaving without telling me your name again?
00:08:09Again?
00:08:11Again?
00:08:13Um...
00:08:14I've never actually done this before.
00:08:17I know it's been five years, but does she really not remember me?
00:08:22Your pocket's pretty big.
00:08:23Alright, easy, easy, easy, easy, easy.
00:08:28Your phone, too.
00:08:32Your jacket.
00:08:33That's real nice.
00:08:34I want that, too.
00:08:36Really?
00:08:43Wow, wow, wow.
00:08:48I'm sorry.
00:08:49Oh.
00:08:50Ouch.
00:08:51You got jumped, huh?
00:08:52Yeah.
00:08:54Was it because you were wearing expensive clothes?
00:08:59No, I can't.
00:09:00Just take it.
00:09:01My friends are on the phone.
00:09:07Oh, and next time you're in the neighborhood, don't wear nice stuff.
00:09:11I get targeted.
00:09:13Hey, what's your name again?
00:09:21Thank you for a lovely night, and I should be going.
00:09:27Wow, it really is you.
00:09:30Smile for the camera, sis.
00:09:34Smile for the camera, sis.
00:09:37I heard you were drinking yourself to death at the bar downstairs.
00:09:41Looks like you had some fun.
00:09:43I can already see the headlines now.
00:09:45Heiress of Monroe Construction cheats on her fiancé with a cowboy?
00:09:50Who are you to talk about cheating?
00:09:52I just caught you in bed with my fiancé.
00:09:54Yeah, well, nobody knows about that, do they?
00:09:56Just wait until I upload these photos.
00:09:58You will never be named CEO.
00:10:04What the fuck are you doing?
00:10:06Are you an idiot?
00:10:08I've already uploaded all these to iCloud.
00:10:10Hmm, what a coincidence.
00:10:13So have I.
00:10:16You sneaky bitch!
00:10:18At least I have clothes on.
00:10:20What do you think is going to be worse?
00:10:22Your nudes with Ken, or me just in a room with a man?
00:10:26I'm telling father about this.
00:10:28This is not the last of me.
00:10:35I'm sorry you had to see that.
00:10:37But nice move, I'm not going to lie.
00:10:39You handled it well.
00:10:41Is it true you have a fiancé?
00:10:43Ex-fiancé?
00:10:45Ken Snyder?
00:10:47The heir of Snyder Electronics?
00:10:49That's the one.
00:10:51I'm taking over my mother's company in three days, and that's all he really cares about.
00:10:55Well, that Snyder guy would be a fool to care more about a company than you.
00:10:59Well, anyway, thank you for helping me out.
00:11:03Thank you for helping me out.
00:11:05My name is Serena Monroe. What's yours?
00:11:08Jesse. Jesse Ross.
00:11:12As in, CEO of Ross Architecture and Construction?
00:11:20Jesse Ross.
00:11:22As in, CEO of Ross Architecture and Construction?
00:11:26Hey, Mom.
00:11:30How are you?
00:11:33Better now that you're here.
00:11:43The Rosses just won't give up, will they?
00:11:46I told them a million times to leave us alone.
00:11:49You're sick for God's sake.
00:11:50They don't care, sweetie.
00:11:52All the Rosses see is a great opportunity to acquire a blooming company from a dying woman.
00:11:59Don't say that, Mom.
00:12:01Don't worry, Serena.
00:12:03I'm leaving the company to you, even if it's the last thing that I do.
00:12:08It's too hard to do alone.
00:12:11Promise me that you'll find someone kind.
00:12:15Someone who will love you.
00:12:17That you'll find someone kind.
00:12:20Someone you trust.
00:12:22Marry him.
00:12:24And take over the company when you turn 28.
00:12:27And keep our legacy.
00:12:30No, just don't leave me, Mom.
00:12:32Promise me, Serena.
00:12:35I promise.
00:12:48Jesse Ross.
00:12:51Stay the fuck away from me.
00:12:54I'm sorry, did I say something?
00:12:56My mother was Pauline Monroe.
00:12:58Seven years ago, your family tried to get her to sell her company while she was dying from cancer.
00:13:03Okay, hold on a second.
00:13:05What are you talking about?
00:13:07My mother's company was her life's work.
00:13:09And you tried to steal it from her.
00:13:11And that killed her.
00:13:17Serena, wait.
00:13:19What?
00:13:21And don't say you're sorry.
00:13:23That's not going to bring her back.
00:13:25I'm not Jesse Ross.
00:13:30What do you mean you're not Jesse Ross?
00:13:33I mean, I'm not that Jesse Ross.
00:13:35I mean, it's a pretty common name, no?
00:13:37How can I forget?
00:13:39He's an escort.
00:13:41How could he be that Jesse Ross?
00:13:43Right. Totally.
00:13:44That name is just really triggering for me.
00:13:48Besides, this is the Ross Hotel.
00:13:50If you were the real Jesse Ross, somebody would have recognized you.
00:13:55Oh, good morning, Mr. Ross.
00:14:02How did she know who you are?
00:14:06I work at this hotel quite often.
00:14:10I mean, I work at many different hotels.
00:14:11Of course. Of course.
00:14:13Due to your profession.
00:14:15I'm sure you have to do this a lot.
00:14:17Anyway, speaking of that, did Lynn already pay you?
00:14:20Excuse me?
00:14:22Oh, oh my god. I'm so sorry.
00:14:25Two grand should be enough, right?
00:14:28And keep the change.
00:14:37Hold on. Does she think I'm an escort?
00:14:39Does she think I'm an escort?
00:14:49Have a good rest of your day.
00:14:52Um, do you want me to call you an Uber or something?
00:14:56No, that's alright. I'll take the subway.
00:14:59Subway? Isn't he the owner of this hotel?
00:15:02Well, um, thanks for the great night.
00:15:05You're welcome.
00:15:07Bye.
00:15:09Bye.
00:15:21Morning, boss.
00:15:28Got some news for you.
00:15:30The franchise mall is delayed in construction again.
00:15:34Same problem?
00:15:36The taco stand lady refuses to leave.
00:15:37I'll have to force her to remove her if we want to continue construction.
00:15:44Alright, let's go.
00:15:55Hey, so I'm going to need this whole truck removed.
00:15:58You listen to me, you copper asshole.
00:16:01I'm not going nowhere, okay?
00:16:03I've been here for over ten years.
00:16:04And if you want me to go, it's going to be over my dead body, okay?
00:16:09How much would it cost to buy out the entire business?
00:16:12What?
00:16:14I mean, everybody has a price, right?
00:16:16You asshole! You think everything can be bought with money?
00:16:19Look at this stupid idiot.
00:16:21I don't think he wants me to come.
00:16:24To be with somebody all night is foul.
00:16:27It's absolutely foul. I don't know where she found this person.
00:16:29Shameless bitch.
00:16:30Carol told us that you were out the whole night at a hotel with another man.
00:16:35You have tarnished our family's name!
00:16:40Monroe is my family name.
00:16:43You're just a homewrecker turned stepmom,
00:16:45living in the house that my mom bought with the money that my mom earned.
00:16:50So I suggest you shut your mouth,
00:16:53or I swear I'll do it for you.
00:16:56Look at your daughter.
00:16:57Look at your daughter.
00:17:01So I suggest you shut your mouth,
00:17:04or I swear I'll shut it for you.
00:17:06This is your daughter. Look at your daughter!
00:17:09How dare you talk to us like that?
00:17:12You're the one out there with every man you could scoop up on the street.
00:17:16Go back to Ken. Apologize and beg his forgiveness.
00:17:20Yeah. I'll do that, Dad.
00:17:23When pigs fly.
00:17:25Are you crazy, Serena?
00:17:27You cannot take over this company until you are married.
00:17:31How do you expect to find a husband in the next few days?
00:17:34Oh, don't you worry. I will.
00:17:36It just won't be the guy that cheated on me
00:17:40with my own sister.
00:17:42What?
00:17:48You're a homewrecker.
00:17:50Like mother, like daughter.
00:17:52You sneaky bitch.
00:17:54I was just keeping Ken company.
00:17:55You were the one who was out with a call boy all night.
00:17:58At least he was nice and honest.
00:18:01You guys?
00:18:03You guys are just a bunch of money-hungry vultures
00:18:06feasting off of what my mom left behind.
00:18:12That's your daughter.
00:18:14She should be locked up.
00:18:16You're both right.
00:18:26I won't let them take your company, Mom.
00:18:31I promise.
00:18:33Okay.
00:18:40Where are you, Serena?
00:18:42I don't want to talk about last night.
00:18:44We will talk about it, Serena.
00:18:46But I'm actually calling as your assistant now.
00:18:48You should be meeting the chief designer of construction
00:18:50at Future Mall for the construction site right now.
00:18:52Oh, shit.
00:18:53I completely forgot.
00:18:55Okay, I'm on my way.
00:18:58Nice.
00:19:00Esta troza
00:19:02is all yours, sir.
00:19:08God bless you.
00:19:13Hey, can you move this
00:19:15truck?
00:19:17I can use a drink.
00:19:24Hi.
00:19:26Do you guys have water here?
00:19:28It's you.
00:19:30Oh.
00:19:32I didn't take you as a taco stand kind of guy.
00:19:34You're going to kill yourself doing all these jobs.
00:19:36Yeah.
00:19:38Usually I can handle this type of stuff,
00:19:40but I'm especially tired
00:19:42after last night.
00:19:44No, not today.
00:19:46I'm not doing that.
00:19:48Anyways, what can I help you with, Miss Monroe?
00:19:50You can call me Serena.
00:19:51I was actually supposed to meet someone here,
00:19:53but it looks like I am late,
00:19:55so I think they already left.
00:19:57Somebody that keeps you waiting?
00:19:59Hmm.
00:20:01I think you're worth the wait.
00:20:03Hold on a second.
00:20:05You might actually be the perfect...
00:20:07Hey, Jesse.
00:20:09Are you married?
00:20:11No.
00:20:12Girlfriend?
00:20:14No.
00:20:16Situationship with different women?
00:20:18Of course not.
00:20:20Where are we going?
00:20:22City Hall.
00:20:24We're going to get married.
00:20:30Well, it's official.
00:20:32We're married.
00:20:34It's kind of weird to know that it's made out loud.
00:20:36I don't know.
00:20:38I think it sounds just right to me.
00:20:41Well, now that the marriage part is over,
00:20:43let's talk business.
00:20:45I'm going to deposit 10K on this card every month,
00:20:46and that is your salary for playing my husband.
00:20:50You know I'll marry you for free?
00:20:52Come on, Jesse.
00:20:54You barely know me.
00:20:56I know you well enough to know that I like you.
00:21:01Just...
00:21:03take it, Jesse.
00:21:05I can't have you working in the hotels,
00:21:07if you know what I mean.
00:21:09Listen,
00:21:11I...
00:21:12I...
00:21:16Alright.
00:21:18You're right.
00:21:20A gentleman never argues with a lady.
00:21:22Great.
00:21:24Oh, I have to go,
00:21:26but keep your phone on you,
00:21:28and I look forward to working with you, Jesse Ross.
00:21:31You as well,
00:21:33Serena Monroe.
00:21:37We need to stop talking about her for once.
00:21:39I'm just a little bit over it.
00:21:40I'm here for her.
00:21:42Oh, my.
00:21:45What are you doing here?
00:21:47You should be on your knees at Ken's house
00:21:49begging him to take you back.
00:21:51Ken probably kicked her out.
00:21:53That's why she's groveling back to us.
00:21:55Funny, coming from the woman
00:21:57who had her hands down his pants this morning.
00:21:59How dare you insult my baby girl,
00:22:01you wretched child.
00:22:03Well, I wouldn't have to
00:22:05if your baby girl wasn't such a liar
00:22:07and a man-stealer.
00:22:09You're just jealous that Ken chose me.
00:22:11And now without a husband,
00:22:13you're freaking out about the CEO title.
00:22:15I'm glad you mentioned it,
00:22:17because I have something to show you guys.
00:22:22Is...
00:22:24Is that...
00:22:26a marriage certificate?
00:22:28You're married?
00:22:32You're married?
00:22:34Who the hell is this guy?
00:22:36That is none of your business.
00:22:39Wait a minute.
00:22:41Jesse Ross?
00:22:43Wait, isn't he the billionaire...
00:22:45Oh, snap out of your daydream.
00:22:47It's not that, Jesse Ross.
00:22:49As if a billionaire CEO
00:22:51would be interested in you.
00:22:53Let me guess.
00:22:55Is it the call boy from the hotel
00:22:57the other night?
00:22:59Homeless.
00:23:01So what?
00:23:03As it is.
00:23:05It's my marriage.
00:23:06Why do you care?
00:23:08Are you insane?
00:23:10You are the CEO-to-be
00:23:12of Monroe Construction.
00:23:14What can this loser do for our company?
00:23:16He's got no connections.
00:23:18He's got no money.
00:23:20He's got nothing.
00:23:22Work is work.
00:23:24Marriage is marriage.
00:23:26If all you're concerned about is money,
00:23:28I'll get you the money.
00:23:30Listen to yourself.
00:23:32What do you think?
00:23:34Money grows on trees?
00:23:36I don't want to see your faces anyway.
00:23:38I was just here to show you the certificate.
00:23:41Serena!
00:23:45Everything just went so unexpected, Serena.
00:23:48You've been sitting like this all morning, boss.
00:23:51Has something happened?
00:23:53Yeah.
00:23:55This happened.
00:23:57I got married last night
00:23:59to that girl.
00:24:01Wait, the girl that got you the wool coat?
00:24:03That's amazing, boss.
00:24:04What did you say whenever you told her
00:24:06you'd been looking for her for the last five years?
00:24:08I didn't tell her.
00:24:10What?
00:24:12Why?
00:24:14She's not just a random girl.
00:24:16She's Serena Monroe.
00:24:18The heiress of Monroe Construction
00:24:20and daughter of...
00:24:22Pauline Monroe.
00:24:24And she thinks that my family killed her mother.
00:24:26And to be honest with you, I don't blame her.
00:24:28But it was your uncle who insisted
00:24:30on going after her mother.
00:24:32You were only 23.
00:24:34That doesn't change anything.
00:24:36That's why I don't want her to know who I am.
00:24:38Just not right now.
00:24:40Okay, well, I have to say, boss,
00:24:42I don't think this is a very good idea.
00:24:46Okay, well, I have to say, boss,
00:24:48I don't think this is a very good idea.
00:24:50She's been on my mind all these years.
00:24:52I like her.
00:24:54I want to have a chance to get to know her better
00:24:56and to be around her, but I can't do that
00:24:58if she knows who I am.
00:25:00Before she sees me as the Jesse Ross,
00:25:02I need a chance to show her who I really am.
00:25:04I need a chance to show her who I really am.
00:25:11Morning, Serena.
00:25:13Hey, where are you?
00:25:15I am at the construction site selling tacos.
00:25:19Again?
00:25:21Yeah, I need to pay the rent.
00:25:23Well, I'm your new boss now.
00:25:25I sent you an address.
00:25:27Can you come now?
00:25:29Yes, of course.
00:25:31I will be there soon, boss.
00:25:32Where are you going?
00:25:34What about your meeting in 30 minutes?
00:25:36Push it back.
00:25:38My only priority right now is Serena Monroe.
00:25:43This is not going to end well.
00:25:50Tom?
00:25:52Looking amazing as ever.
00:25:54Thank you, Miss Monroe.
00:25:56So nice to see you.
00:25:59Your dress is ready. I'll be right back.
00:26:00Oh, actually, it's my husband who is coming in today.
00:26:03Who?
00:26:05He needs some decent clothes, some shoes,
00:26:07and definitely a new watch.
00:26:09That's great.
00:26:11Although I'm not sure I can handle all of that today.
00:26:13Um, but...
00:26:15Oh, sorry, I'm late.
00:26:17Miss Monroe, why didn't you tell me
00:26:19that your husband was, um...
00:26:23so handsome?
00:26:26Very nice to meet you, Jesse Ross.
00:26:27Wow, I have never been to a store like this.
00:26:29I mean, it must be so expensive.
00:26:31Baby, we don't have to do this
00:26:33if you don't want to.
00:26:35Oh, don't worry about it.
00:26:37I want to.
00:26:41So, can you get his measurements?
00:26:43There's no need.
00:26:48I'm sorry.
00:26:50What I mean is that, you know,
00:26:52I've been doing this for so many years.
00:26:54I can just take one look at him
00:26:55and know exactly what he needs.
00:26:57See?
00:26:59This is why we come here,
00:27:01because Tom is the expert of all experts.
00:27:03Right, okay.
00:27:05So, well, then, Mr. Ross,
00:27:07why don't you come in the back
00:27:09and I will show you some suits.
00:27:11Great.
00:27:13I will be waiting outside the fitting room.
00:27:19What is going on?
00:27:21Thank you for covering for me.
00:27:23Look, you know,
00:27:25you have an entire rack of suits here
00:27:27that have been custom-tailored for you.
00:27:29Pick three, and we'll try them on.
00:27:31Oh, okay.
00:27:33Whatever you say.
00:27:38Okay.
00:27:52Hmm.
00:27:54Actually, not bad.
00:27:56Hmm.
00:28:03I like this one, too.
00:28:10What is this magic?
00:28:12Everything fits you like a glove.
00:28:14Trade secret.
00:28:24Oh, I'm so sorry.
00:28:26Excuse me. Sorry.
00:28:28It's okay.
00:28:30I think that we will take
00:28:32all three of them.
00:28:34Oh, yes.
00:28:37Actually,
00:28:39today is our annual sale.
00:28:4150% off everything that you've purchased today.
00:28:43Half off?
00:28:45Tom, you never have sales.
00:28:48Why don't I just go wrap this up for you?
00:28:50Okay.
00:28:52I promise
00:28:54that when I make enough money,
00:28:56I will pay you back.
00:28:58You don't have to pay me back.
00:29:00You're my husband.
00:29:02At least not with money.
00:29:18You know, no one's ever given me
00:29:20that nice a gift before.
00:29:22Thank you, Serena.
00:29:24Of course.
00:29:26You're my husband now.
00:29:28I want to take care of you.
00:29:30Plus, it's not every day
00:29:32that you see a guy with this good in suit.
00:29:34Actually,
00:29:36I got you something.
00:29:38Oh, wait. Hold on. Hold on.
00:29:40You first.
00:29:42I know I rushed you
00:29:44into this whole marriage thing,
00:29:46so I thought the least I could do
00:29:48is get you a ring.
00:29:51I'm sorry.
00:29:59You know, you didn't rush me into anything.
00:30:03I actually, I need to tell you.
00:30:05If it isn't
00:30:07Serena Monroe.
00:30:11So,
00:30:13you must be the new husband Serena bought.
00:30:15I mean, chose.
00:30:18You must be the new husband Serena bought.
00:30:21Oh, you must be Ken Snyder,
00:30:23the cheating ex-fiance she dumped.
00:30:25Anything, I dumped her first.
00:30:27Well, then I have a big thank you to tell you.
00:30:30Because she's mine now.
00:30:33You must be paying him a lot, Serena.
00:30:35He's extremely committed to the character.
00:30:38Yeah, I'm really committed.
00:30:40And if you'll excuse us,
00:30:42I'm going to take my wife home.
00:30:48You don't even have your own car?
00:30:51You have to drive Serena's.
00:30:53What kind of loser are you?
00:30:56Loser?
00:30:59I've been called worse
00:31:01by better people.
00:31:14Fucking prick.
00:31:15Fucking prick.
00:31:31You're welcome.
00:31:33Wow, I can't wait to see what this place looks like.
00:31:39Wait,
00:31:41something feels
00:31:43odd.
00:31:45This is me.
00:31:47Drive home safe.
00:31:49Where do you live?
00:31:51Aren't you going to invite me in for some coffee or something?
00:31:53Fuck, I just pulled over some random neighborhood.
00:31:56I don't actually live here.
00:31:59Where do you live?
00:32:01Which house is yours?
00:32:03Can I have a tour?
00:32:05Yeah, this one.
00:32:07Yeah, right there.
00:32:09But maybe next time.
00:32:11See, the thing is that I'm renting.
00:32:13I got a lot of roommates.
00:32:15It's messy and dirty and...
00:32:17Wait, you're telling me seven people live in this house?
00:32:19Cramped up?
00:32:21Is that even legal?
00:32:23You know, the housing market is like
00:32:25so expensive nowadays, so...
00:32:27Anyways,
00:32:29drive home safe.
00:32:31Okay.
00:32:33Is he
00:32:35hiding another woman in that house?
00:32:38No, really.
00:32:40You can go.
00:32:42I will.
00:32:44Okay.
00:32:54Hi.
00:33:00I forgot my keys.
00:33:02What?
00:33:04Six other people live there.
00:33:06Just knock. I'm sure someone's home.
00:33:13Fuck it.
00:33:30Who are you?
00:33:32I'm not buying anything.
00:33:34Go away!
00:33:36Hey, friend!
00:33:38I forgot my keys.
00:33:40If you could just let me inside so we can...
00:33:41If you could just let me inside,
00:33:43I'll pay you whatever you want.
00:33:45Hey, what's wrong with you?
00:33:58Excuse me?
00:34:01What the fuck is going on?
00:34:12What was that for?
00:34:14Do I need a reason to kiss my wife?
00:34:17What's wrong with your roommate?
00:34:19He said that he is very busy with a girl right now,
00:34:23if you know what I mean,
00:34:25and he asked me to come back later.
00:34:27Wait, you know Chinese?
00:34:29A little, yeah.
00:34:31I'm not fluent, though.
00:34:33That's kind of cool.
00:34:35But you live here.
00:34:37He can't just treat you like that.
00:34:39Oh, no, no, no.
00:34:41We can just hang out for a little bit
00:34:43and I'll come back later.
00:34:45There's no worries at all, no.
00:34:47Let's go.
00:34:49To where?
00:34:51You're my husband.
00:34:53I can't let you just live like this.
00:34:55I'm gonna buy you a house.
00:34:57Are you serious?
00:34:59Of course.
00:35:01Let's go.
00:35:04I do not like the Rosses,
00:35:06but I do have to admit
00:35:08they have some of the best real estate in the city.
00:35:09It's a new developmental project,
00:35:11and I love it.
00:35:14But two million dollars is a big purchase.
00:35:17Purchase?
00:35:19I'll give you this whole neighborhood if you want it.
00:35:21All right, Ms. Monroe.
00:35:23Welcome to the one and only Lawrence Station home.
00:35:26I heard you're interested in purchasing property?
00:35:29Boss?
00:35:33Even this young man thinks you're the boss of the relationship.
00:35:36My wife would like to have a tour of your model home.
00:35:40Certainly.
00:35:42If you'd kindly step into the living room.
00:35:44Ladies first.
00:35:50You don't remember, boss?
00:35:52You told me to come to the new model home
00:35:54and make sure everything was running smoothly.
00:35:57I'm sorry, I'm sorry.
00:35:59Just don't blow my cover.
00:36:02Your secret is safe with me, boss.
00:36:04Always.
00:36:06Funny thing, though.
00:36:08I have another Ms. Monroe on my schedule.
00:36:18Serena?
00:36:20There are 8.5 million people in L.A.
00:36:23How come I keep running into you two cheaters?
00:36:25I'll go wherever I want.
00:36:27What do you think?
00:36:29You own the city.
00:36:31Oh, my God.
00:36:32Did you pay for your own wedding ring yourself?
00:36:35That's the saddest thing I've ever seen, sis.
00:36:37Oh, really?
00:36:39Because I think I'm looking at the saddest thing I've ever seen.
00:36:41Take that back, you bitch.
00:36:44Hey, watch it.
00:36:46You lay one hand on her, you'll regret it for the rest of your life.
00:36:49Take it easy.
00:36:51Take your claws off me, callboy.
00:36:53What? You think you're all high and mighty?
00:36:56Why don't you scram and go back to where you came from?
00:36:59Callboy?
00:37:00Anyway, if you two are interested in this unit, you could forget it.
00:37:05Because we're getting it, right, Ken?
00:37:07Anything my baby wants.
00:37:11If you two are interested in this unit, you could forget it.
00:37:15Because we're getting it, right, Ken?
00:37:17Anything my baby wants.
00:37:19Cash. Down payment.
00:37:21Now go get us that contract.
00:37:23Mr. Schneider, I know that there's nothing you can do about your face.
00:37:26What did you just say?
00:37:27Have your parents ever taught you to get in line and wait your turn on the playground?
00:37:31Those rules might apply to your peasant world.
00:37:34Picking up hot dogs.
00:37:36But in this world, my friend, money is the only express pass.
00:37:41Now what are you waiting for?
00:37:43Go fetch my contract.
00:37:45Actually, Mrs. Monroe has already reserved the unit.
00:37:49What? When?
00:37:50When?
00:37:56Mrs. Monroe has already reserved the unit.
00:37:59What? When?
00:38:01That's impossible. I made that down payment first.
00:38:04Yeah, well, Mrs. Monroe is the CEO of Monroe Construction.
00:38:08And as one of our VIP clients, she can reserve any unit at any time without a down payment.
00:38:15But I wouldn't expect you to know that.
00:38:17Are you insane?
00:38:18Do you know who you're talking to?
00:38:21This is Ken Schneider.
00:38:23Schneider? Oh, I'm afraid I've never heard that name before.
00:38:27Well, if you guys will excuse us.
00:38:30Me and Serena have some paperwork we should be signing.
00:38:34Fine. We don't want your fucking model home anyway.
00:38:38Oh, hey Ken. No cussing.
00:38:41My house, my rules.
00:38:43Let's go, Ken.
00:38:49Looks like the express pass didn't work this time.
00:38:56What?
00:38:58Did I say something wrong?
00:39:01Did I say something wrong?
00:39:03That was fucking amazing.
00:39:06Hey, watch your language.
00:39:09I'm too excited.
00:39:11Thank you, but since when did I become a VIP?
00:39:15From the moment you walked in.
00:39:16Well, if you put it that way, I think I need to buy it.
00:39:21And we're having a half-off sale because it's a model home.
00:39:25You get to keep the furniture too.
00:39:27Am I dreaming? I have to be dreaming, Jesse. Pinch me.
00:39:31I think this is real, Serena.
00:39:35I'll go fetch the papers.
00:39:37This is amazing.
00:39:38This is amazing.
00:39:44Welcome to your new home, Jesse.
00:39:47How about we call it...
00:39:51Our home.
00:39:55How about we call it...
00:39:59Our home.
00:40:01What?
00:40:03What do you mean?
00:40:05I just got this model home for you because I need you to move in ASAP.
00:40:08Look, it's already furnished and everything.
00:40:10I know, it's so spacious, but I want to live here with you.
00:40:15Build a home. Just us.
00:40:19You really want to do that with me?
00:40:21Why do you keep doubting that I want to be with you?
00:40:25I guess I just haven't felt wanted lately.
00:40:30Well, Serena Monroe, I want you more than anything.
00:40:39This is a pretty big house. Lots of empty rooms.
00:40:44Alright, just so we're clear, I get the master bedroom.
00:40:49Anything you want, Serena.
00:40:52Okay. Alright.
00:40:57It's been such a long day. Are you hungry?
00:41:01I'm starving.
00:41:03I think I know just the place to go.
00:41:05This is my favorite restaurant. They have the best steak in the city.
00:41:10Wow, I cannot imagine what a dish must cost around here.
00:41:14Oh, don't worry about it. Get whatever you want. It's on me anyway.
00:41:18Besides, I saved about a million dollars today.
00:41:24Welcome to LaBelle. Good to see you.
00:41:27Pleasure to meet you, sir. My name is Jesse Ross.
00:41:29I'm very excited to be at your establishment for the very first time.
00:41:33Great to have you here, Mr. Ross. I am Leonard, the manager.
00:41:37The lady must be your date for the night.
00:41:40My wife, Miss Serena Monroe.
00:41:43Congratulations on the new marriage. Please, follow me.
00:41:47Wait, how did you know that we recently got married?
00:41:53Wait, how did you know that we recently got married?
00:41:56You know, I've seen so many newly wedded couples come to this place to celebrate.
00:42:00They all have this special glow.
00:42:03Wow, that's very romantic. Thank you.
00:42:06I guess we do have a lot to celebrate.
00:42:10Perfect. Let me lead you to your table.
00:42:15We have this table for the two of you. Miss Monroe.
00:42:19Perfect. Thank you.
00:42:22Perfect. Thank you.
00:42:33Thank you, sir. You're welcome, sir.
00:42:41Something wrong?
00:42:43No, nothing. Actually, this day has gone by so perfectly, it actually feels unreal.
00:42:51Well, it must be luck.
00:42:54No, it's you.
00:42:59It's you. Ever since I met you, everything just keeps falling into place.
00:43:05You bring so much fortune into my life.
00:43:09I think you're my lucky star, Jesse.
00:43:21You are a glow.
00:43:25You are a glow.
00:43:29For some reason, I really like having him around.
00:43:34Should I hire him?
00:43:37Do I have something on my face?
00:43:39Um, no. It's not that.
00:43:42I was actually thinking, since you are my lucky star, why don't you come look with me at my company?
00:43:51I could use the luck, and I like having you around.
00:43:58Well, if you say it like that, where do I have fun?
00:44:06Oh, there you are. And you're the secret husband she's been hiding from me.
00:44:11He's not just okay, he's hot. Way to go, girl.
00:44:14Lynn, stop.
00:44:16I'm Lynn, Serena's best friend, assistant, therapist.
00:44:21I'm just going to take some of that responsibility off you from now on.
00:44:24I like him.
00:44:26Great. Because I brought him here to do an interview with you.
00:44:29An interview for what?
00:44:31Anything. Just find him something to do.
00:44:34No pressure. Just try your best.
00:44:37Wait, Serena. This woman, I swear.
00:44:41I know, right?
00:44:43Well, let's get to it.
00:44:52What are you doing in my office?
00:45:00What are you doing in my office?
00:45:02And get out of my chair. You're getting your stench all over it.
00:45:05Always so high and mighty, aren't we, Serena?
00:45:08I guess you haven't heard the news.
00:45:11The Johnsons decided to pull out of your biggest project in Williamsburg.
00:45:15I guess they don't trust you with their money.
00:45:17No need to be nervous, okay? We'll just chat a bit.
00:45:19Sounds good to me, yeah.
00:45:21So, you have your resume on you?
00:45:23Yeah, I do, yeah.
00:45:25I've done a little bit of this, a little bit of that, but nothing too serious.
00:45:29Serena chose you as her Prince Charming.
00:45:32I'm sure you've done something incredible.
00:45:36You went to Harvard?
00:45:38Yes, yeah.
00:45:40You were the chief designer of reconstruction of Shangri-La, Shanghai.
00:45:43That is correct, yeah.
00:45:45And you designed crazy Mabel Plaza in Silicon Valley.
00:45:49You know, with your resume, you could have a job in the industry anywhere in the world.
00:45:55I know. But there's only one Serena Morel.
00:46:00She's the most important thing to me.
00:46:05That's impossible. I just met with the COO last week.
00:46:10Wait. Ken went to college with him.
00:46:14You two did this?
00:46:15Don't point fingers when you can't even manage your own company.
00:46:18You start as CEO next week.
00:46:21What are you going to do?
00:46:23Well, as her assistant, I should be critical and grill you with more questions.
00:46:30But as her best friend, I feel like she is so lucky to have you.
00:46:38Face it, Serena.
00:46:41Serena's office.
00:46:43Serena's office.
00:46:45Shit. I think I recognize that voice.
00:46:48Carol Monroe.
00:46:50Not you again.
00:46:57You start as CEO next week.
00:47:00What are you going to do?
00:47:02I'll find a solution. I'm not losing the Johnson case.
00:47:06There's a fine line between confidence and stupidity, Serena.
00:47:09You want a piece of free advice?
00:47:10Quit right now.
00:47:13I'll die before I let go of this company.
00:47:17Face it, Serena. Without the Johnson's money, you're going to lose the biggest case of your life.
00:47:22And I don't really think the board is going to be too happy about that.
00:47:25But I'll see if I can have Ken call them to change their minds.
00:47:31And all you'll have to do is get down on your hands and knees and beg me.
00:47:40What's more important to you? Your ego or your dead mother's company?
00:47:45Keep dreaming, Carol.
00:47:48Great. Looking forward to seeing you get fired.
00:47:55Wait.
00:48:06Wait.
00:48:11Wait.
00:48:25Don't do it.
00:48:27You again.
00:48:29You know what? Don't steal my line. And how dare you bully my wife like that?
00:48:33I didn't do anything. It's the Johnson's that pulled out of her project.
00:48:37Not anymore.
00:48:41Vincent. It's Jesse. Hello.
00:48:45I'm good, bro. Yeah.
00:48:47Hey, I have a question for you. I heard you were pulling out of the Monroe Project, yeah?
00:48:51Oh, that would be amazing.
00:48:53Hey, I really appreciate it. Thank you so much, alright?
00:48:56Alright, we'll talk soon.
00:48:58Be safe. Bye.
00:49:00I'll take care of it.
00:49:02Serena, thank you for the project.
00:49:04But the Johnson's...
00:49:06The Johnson's just agreed to sell the project for $20 million to Ross Construction.
00:49:07And they're going to continue to fund Serena's project.
00:49:10You're lying!
00:49:14Okay, you're lying. The Rosses wouldn't just donate $20 million to some project.
00:49:19You're more than welcome to call Vincent if you'd like yourself.
00:49:22But I doubt you have his phone number.
00:49:24Serena, it's all taken care of.
00:49:27Mark my words, Serena. Your luck will run out soon.
00:49:30And when it does, I'll be in the front row waiting for that day.
00:49:38Did she always stand in the door like that?
00:49:43What's wrong? I thought you'd be happy about all this.
00:49:46I am happy that the project is being saved.
00:49:51But I don't know how I feel about it being the Rosses.
00:49:55Serena...
00:49:57Wait, how do you know Vincent Johnson?
00:50:00Oh, shit. What should I tell her?
00:50:02I, uh...
00:50:04I...
00:50:05I've helped him with some stuff, yeah.
00:50:11Aw, I knew I was right about you, Jesse Ross.
00:50:15How do you always end up being at the right place at the right time?
00:50:19Ah, that was close.
00:50:21Because I only do it for the right person.
00:50:25Stop, we're at the office.
00:50:31How was your interview, by the way?
00:50:32I don't know, you tell me. How was my performance back there, huh?
00:50:36You're hired as my personal assistant.
00:50:39Perfect! I've been dreaming of this day my whole life.
00:50:45Hey, see you at work.
00:50:48Bye.
00:50:51Cooper!
00:50:53Hey, I wanted to let you know I am stepping away from the company for a little while.
00:50:56What? Why?
00:50:58I accepted a job offer from my wife as her assistant.
00:51:00Wait, boss.
00:51:02Your company makes millions of dollars a month and you're tossing it aside for no good reason?
00:51:06Well, I'm doing it to be with Serena. That's the best reason.
00:51:09I'm not tossing it aside. I'm leaving it in your care while I'm gone.
00:51:13Oh, okay, yeah. Easy for you to say, boss.
00:51:16I trust you, Cooper, okay? You can do it.
00:51:19Alright, bye.
00:51:21Wait, hold on a second, boss. Wait...
00:51:30Surprise!
00:51:39Surprise!
00:51:43Surprise!
00:51:46Did you do all of this?
00:51:50Anything for my wife.
00:51:56Is that my apron?
00:51:58Okay, you can laugh all you want. I am not getting a stain on this shirt.
00:52:02Who says I'm laughing?
00:52:05Actually, I think it is quite sexy.
00:52:09You're the first man who's ever cooked for me.
00:52:12Really? No one's ever done this for you?
00:52:15Men in my world are not like you, Jesse.
00:52:17They wear $5,000 suits, play golf, and they only care about two things.
00:52:23Spending money and how to make more of it.
00:52:28You're full of surprises.
00:52:30You're pretty special.
00:52:35You say the word, and I will do this for you every single day.
00:52:40For the rest of your life.
00:52:46For the rest of your life?
00:52:48Or as long as you'll have me.
00:52:51Well, I have to taste test this first.
00:52:54All right, ladies first.
00:52:57Fair warning, I'm pretty picky.
00:52:59Don't take my chances.
00:53:07This is amazing.
00:53:09You have a little something.
00:53:15A little something.
00:53:17Oh.
00:53:25This is too good to be true.
00:53:30You're too good to be true.
00:53:34I don't want to keep doing this to you.
00:53:37What are you talking about, Serena?
00:53:40I think we should end this.
00:53:42Oh, no. Did you find out who I am?
00:53:46I think we should end this.
00:53:49I proposed to you only to become CEO,
00:53:51and you ended up being so special.
00:53:54Okay, I'm going to stop you right there.
00:53:56Yes, you did ask me to marry you.
00:53:59But have you ever thought about why I said yes?
00:54:02Because I'm paying you?
00:54:04$10,000 a month is a lot.
00:54:06Yes.
00:54:08But it's not enough to make me stay.
00:54:10I stay because I like you.
00:54:12And I'm falling for you, Serena.
00:54:16Really?
00:54:18You're falling for me?
00:54:20You're falling for me?
00:54:23Yes.
00:54:25Now.
00:54:28Shall we?
00:54:36So, you can dance.
00:54:39Do you have any other secrets that you're hiding from me, Jesse Rock?
00:54:43I guess we'll find out.
00:54:44I guess we'll find out.
00:54:48Actually, I think I have a secret to tell you.
00:54:55Actually, I have a secret to tell you.
00:55:05I think I'm falling for you, too.
00:55:09Well then, I guess we'll just call it even.
00:55:14I guess we'll just call it even.
00:55:44Do you know that when two people look at each other's eyes long enough, their heartbeats synchronize?
00:55:57No way. You just made that up.
00:56:00I'm serious.
00:56:02Feel it.
00:56:12Serena?
00:56:15Do you hate Jesse Ross?
00:56:20Do you hate Jesse Ross?
00:56:23I... I don't know.
00:56:27I know he just recently took over the company a year ago.
00:56:31And it was his uncle Alfred who was going after my mom, not him.
00:56:36But he's still Ross.
00:56:39I don't know if I can look past that.
00:56:42I've never told anybody this, but even though my mom has been gone for five years,
00:56:51sometimes I pretend she's just traveling and she'll come back one day.
00:57:00She was the only one that ever truly loved me.
00:57:04That's why I can't let go of this company.
00:57:08If I lose this, then I lose everything of her.
00:57:14I'm sorry that you had to do it alone.
00:57:17It was hard. I'm not alone anymore.
00:57:21I have you.
00:57:24I haven't felt like this in a really, really long time.
00:57:30Like what?
00:57:32Like home.
00:57:37Yeah.
00:57:53We're going to have to move.
00:57:55If this is what you want to do, you can do that.
00:57:57But you're going to have to move it all the way over.
00:57:59This is the CEO office. Dad, have you ever heard of Donkey?
00:58:02You think you're such a hero for securing funds from Ross Construction, do you?
00:58:08Here, why don't you take a look at this?
00:58:10Selena Monroe broke our engagement and then married another man in less than 24 hours.
00:58:17She broke my heart. Worse than that, she broke my trust.
00:58:21And that is why I am hereby terminating all partnerships with Monroe Constructions.
00:58:26He cheats on me first and then he wants to go off about trust.
00:58:31That's funny.
00:58:33I don't care who cheated on whom.
00:58:35You ruined our relationship with Ken and now our business is sinking.
00:58:39Dad, you don't care about the company.
00:58:42You just want the bribe that Ken said he'd give you.
00:58:46How dare you accuse your father of this?
00:58:52How dare you accuse your father of this?
00:58:55Get your hands off me, you asshole!
00:58:58Anyone that hurts Serena, I'll hurt them first. Do you understand?
00:59:01You've got two options. You either walk out that door yourself or I'll throw you out.
00:59:05What is it? What are you going to do?
00:59:11That's what I thought.
00:59:14Who the hell is this?
00:59:16Jesse Ross, Serena's husband and personal assistant.
00:59:20You hired him?
00:59:21You hired him?
00:59:23What is this, a homeless shelter?
00:59:25His resume was approved by HR.
00:59:27He got here fair and square, unlike you, who took Mom's seat on the board as soon as she passed.
00:59:32I swear, you mark my words, Serena.
00:59:35You are going to regret losing all the money that you had in projects with Ken.
00:59:40The big board meeting is tomorrow.
00:59:42And if you can't dig your way out of this, you can kiss this company goodbye.
00:59:52You okay?
00:59:55Don't worry about her.
00:59:57No, Jesse. He's right. I'm going to lose the company.
01:00:02No, Jesse. He's right. I'm going to lose the company.
01:00:06What are you talking about? You're Serena Marone. You'll figure it out.
01:00:10I know my wife.
01:00:12No, but the board doesn't, Jesse.
01:00:14And if I don't get enough business for the company, they're going to vote me out.
01:00:18I promised my mom and I'm failing her.
01:00:19Look at me.
01:00:21It's going to be okay.
01:00:23I will help you figure this out. We'll figure it out together, alright?
01:00:27The board meeting is in 24 hours, Jesse.
01:00:29No one can fix this.
01:00:33I know one person.
01:00:37I have an idea.
01:00:39And you're not going to like it. You're going to say no.
01:00:41But you've got to hear me out first.
01:00:44You need to call Jesse Ross and set up an in-person meeting.
01:00:47You need to call Jesse Ross and set up an in-person meeting with him.
01:00:54You need to call Jesse Ross and set up an in-person meeting with him.
01:00:58That is the only company in this industry that can handle all the properties of Kent's.
01:01:02This could be your only chance to actually save the company's reign. Do you understand?
01:01:06And this could be his shot to right the wrong that his family did to you.
01:01:10Even if I did call him up, everyone wants to work with him. Why would he choose me?
01:01:14He's chosen you before. I have a feeling that he could choose you again.
01:01:22I have to step out for a minute. But trust me, call him.
01:01:34What should I do, Mom?
01:01:36Promise me that you'll find someone kind. Someone you trust.
01:01:42Take over the company when you turn 28. Keep our legacy.
01:01:55Hello?
01:01:57Boss, your wife, I mean Miss Monroe, is on the line.
01:02:02Put her on.
01:02:06Good morning, Mr. Ross. This is Serena Monroe from Monroe Construction.
01:02:09It's a pleasure to hear from you, Miss Monroe.
01:02:12Why does his voice sound so familiar?
01:02:14Is there anything that I can do for you?
01:02:17Yes, actually. Since we are officially doing business together, I think there are a few projects that would be perfect for your company.
01:02:24And I was wondering if you would be interested in meeting tonight in person to discuss our future together.
01:02:31That sounds wonderful. I would love to finally meet you in person, Miss Monroe.
01:02:36Oh, and may I just say, I really admire what you are doing over at that company. I think you're a very bright and strong woman.
01:02:45Thank you, Mr. Ross.
01:02:47Please call me Jesse.
01:02:49See you tonight then, Jesse.
01:02:53He's a lot nicer than I thought.
01:02:56Okay, this might be my last night with you, Serena, but I'm just going to tell you the truth and hope for the best.
01:03:06Jesse, I don't know if I can do this. I'm freaking out right now.
01:03:10Look at me. Everything is going to be okay tonight, all right? I promise.
01:03:14How can you be so sure?
01:03:16Because you're amazing and he will see that. And we're also named Jesse, right?
01:03:21Because you're amazing and he will see that. And we're also named Jesse, right?
01:03:24And we're also named Jesse Ross, so I basically know how his brain works.
01:03:29That wasn't scientific at all.
01:03:31But it worked, didn't it? Guess what? I have a surprise for you.
01:03:35Okay.
01:03:37Come with me.
01:03:44Where did you find such a place?
01:03:46Well, I know the owner and he agreed to lend it to me. I mean, I figured we never had a first date, so why not?
01:03:58This is beautiful, Jesse.
01:04:00It really is.
01:04:02Wait, don't move.
01:04:06Why?
01:04:08I'm trying to see if our heartbeats synchronize.
01:04:12And what do you think?
01:04:13I can't tell. It seems like yours is getting faster and faster.
01:04:19And who's fault is it?
01:04:28I'm lucky to have found you, Serena.
01:04:31Me too, Jesse.
01:04:33You know, something weird happened earlier when I was on the phone with Jesse Ross.
01:04:38I saw your face.
01:04:40I saw your face.
01:04:47It was like you had some weird familiarity somehow.
01:04:54It must have been a déjà vu moment.
01:04:58It must be.
01:05:03Oh my god. I'm an idiot.
01:05:07Is it finally time?
01:05:09You planned this whole date for us and here I am talking about another man.
01:05:16I'm so sorry.
01:05:18It's okay.
01:05:20I am just glad to be in this moment with you.
01:05:25Well, Jesse, I'm your wife. You have your whole life to spend with me.
01:05:31And mark my words, Jesse Ross, you're not going to get rid of me that easy.
01:05:36Then I am the luckiest man in the world.
01:05:40I love you.
01:05:43You have no idea how much I wish you'd never know who I really am.
01:05:50I love you too, Jesse.
01:06:10Well, I guess we're back where it all started.
01:06:15I guess we are.
01:06:32I'm sorry. I gotta take this.
01:06:35Okay. I'll just meet you out there.
01:06:40Serena?
01:06:45Nothing.
01:06:47Good.
01:06:51Serena, I promise I will tell you everything when I'm done.
01:06:58Alfred?
01:07:00Jesse! Did you really think you could keep Serena Monroe a secret from me?
01:07:05Stay out of it. Okay, this is between me and her.
01:07:08Not anymore. Come up to my suite. We need to talk.
01:07:23Okay, five more minutes.
01:07:37Okay.
01:07:48I thought you were in Europe.
01:07:51You wouldn't return my calls, Jesse.
01:07:55So I thought, either you're in trouble or you're hiding something from me.
01:08:01Turns out, both my guesses are correct.
01:08:04Me and Serena are married. I'm investing in her project so she can keep her company.
01:08:09You can't do anything about it.
01:08:12You've always been a hopeless romantic, Jesse.
01:08:16And that's the worst quality a CEO can have.
01:08:19Now, don't get me wrong. I'm proud of you for gaining Serena Monroe's trust.
01:08:25She never would have agreed to sit down with me.
01:08:28And I do like her projects.
01:08:29But then I thought, why fund her when I can take over her entire company?
01:08:36Why fund her when I can take over her entire company?
01:08:39She's given everything for that company. You can't just take it from her.
01:08:42I'm not taking anything. I'm buying.
01:08:46I'm gonna make her a decent offer. And if she's smart enough, she'll take it.
01:08:50I'm not gonna let you do that.
01:08:53I know you won't.
01:08:55Which is why I have to do this.
01:08:59Alfred.
01:09:01Alfred!
01:09:03Hey!
01:09:06Hey, hey!
01:09:08Alfred! Alfred!
01:09:17I see you've noticed the proposal I drafted for us, Ms. Monroe.
01:09:23Alfred Ross.
01:09:27Alfred Ross.
01:09:29I know you're expecting my nephew.
01:09:32However, I just had a chat with him.
01:09:35And unfortunately, we were unable to come to terms on our business strategy.
01:09:39Business strategy?
01:09:41Is that what you call trying to force a dying woman to sell her company?
01:09:45I understand your frustration, Ms. Monroe.
01:09:48But I'm a businessman.
01:09:50So is your mother. A successful one, I might add.
01:09:53She knew the rules of the game.
01:09:55And so do you.
01:09:56Fuck!
01:09:58Fuck!
01:10:02I don't mean to be rude, Mr. Ross.
01:10:05But it seems that we have too much history to continue this conversation.
01:10:12I'd like to speak with your nephew, if I may.
01:10:15Unfortunately, Jesse is currently occupied.
01:10:17But I assure you, Ms. Monroe, I speak for the both of us.
01:10:21After all...
01:10:22After all...
01:10:25We are family.
01:10:32Jesse's phone.
01:10:35He's your nephew.
01:10:38He's the Jesse Ross.
01:10:43Now, I know all about your situation, Ms. Monroe.
01:10:46And I assure you, I have your best solution right here.
01:10:49I'm never selling my company.
01:10:52Especially not to you.
01:10:55I knew you'd say that.
01:10:57But to me, it's really all the same.
01:11:00You see, it's simple.
01:11:02Either you sign these papers now and sell to me.
01:11:06Or tomorrow you get voted out by your board.
01:11:08Your stocks crash and I buy it cheap.
01:11:11Whatever you choose, Ms. Monroe.
01:11:14I'll get what I want.
01:11:22Shit!
01:11:24Hey! Someone let me out!
01:11:28Cooper! How did you find me?
01:11:30I couldn't reach you, boss.
01:11:32So, I tracked your phone to this hotel.
01:11:34I saw your uncle down in the lobby with your phone, so I knew something was off.
01:11:38The front desk told me he checked into this room.
01:11:40Alfred is forcing Serena to sell the company.
01:11:42We need to get down there, right now.
01:11:44Okay.
01:11:46So, everything he did was to get close to me.
01:11:51To get my company.
01:11:53Are there any other secrets you're hiding from me, Jesse Ross?
01:11:57I guess we'll find out.
01:11:59You know, something weird happened earlier when I was on the phone with Jesse Ross.
01:12:03I saw your face.
01:12:05Love clouds one's vision.
01:12:08And as you know, in this business, your vision must always be crystal clear.
01:12:12Sign this.
01:12:14You'll get a fair price, board seat, and your share of stocks.
01:12:19Or, wait till tomorrow and let your board decide the fate of your company.
01:12:24Like I said, it's really all the same to me.
01:12:37Promise me, Serena.
01:12:38Take over the company when you turn 28.
01:12:41And keep our legacy.
01:12:43I'm sorry, Mom.
01:12:45I'm tired.
01:12:52Don't do it, Serena.
01:12:54Jesse, what the hell are you doing?
01:12:56You keep me in a hotel room so you can force Serena to sign an acquisition contract?
01:13:00You gotta stop this, Alfred.
01:13:02It's been five years since you tried to take Serena away from me.
01:13:05You gotta stop this, Alfred.
01:13:07It's been five years since you tried to take Serena's mother and make her sign a contract when she was dying of cancer.
01:13:11What, are you gonna do it again?
01:13:13I don't care who I have to lock up and who's dying.
01:13:15This is fucking business and I'd do it all over again for my company.
01:13:19Cooper, you got it?
01:13:21Loud and clear.
01:13:23I don't care who I have to lock up and who's dying.
01:13:25This is fucking business and I'd do it all over again for my company.
01:13:31Now I'm gonna bring that recording to the board of my company.
01:13:33And we're gonna see if your business strategies align with us.
01:13:36But if you want my advice, you better start packing.
01:13:40How dare you?
01:13:42I am your uncle. This is our family business.
01:13:44Not anymore.
01:13:46I'm CEO of Ross Construction and we're gonna do this my way.
01:13:49You know what?
01:13:51You better leave now before I make you.
01:13:55Hold on.
01:13:57You're forgetting something.
01:14:03What?
01:14:20Serena, Serena, I can explain.
01:14:22No, don't tell me that you can explain.
01:14:24Weren't you lucky that I happened to stumble into the wrong hotel room that one night?
01:14:28I poured my heart out to you and you've been lying to me this whole time.
01:14:32The marriage, the house, even this meeting, all for what?
01:14:37So you can earn my business?
01:14:39Redeem your name?
01:14:41Pretend that you're some good person?
01:14:43No, none of that at all, actually.
01:14:46Then why did you do this?
01:14:48Because I fell in love with you five years ago.
01:14:58I didn't know anything about you.
01:14:59But I thought about you every single day for five years.
01:15:06It was winter.
01:15:08You got robbed and I gave you my coat.
01:15:11I thought I would never see you again.
01:15:13And then you walk into my hotel room.
01:15:15I was shocked.
01:15:17But then I realized that my family hurt you.
01:15:20And how much you hated me.
01:15:22So you pretend to be my escort?
01:15:25What, to get close to me? To become my best friend?
01:15:28You can't do this to me, Jesse.
01:15:31You lied to me. You manipulated me.
01:15:34You created this fairy tale of us.
01:15:37You made me fall in love with somebody who doesn't even exist.
01:15:43Serena, did you really?
01:15:47Did you fall in love with me?
01:15:58Did you really fall in love with me?
01:16:00I can't. I can't do this, Jesse.
01:16:04I am sorry that I lied to you.
01:16:08You have every right to be mad.
01:16:11But I don't want to lose you again.
01:16:14And you know that everything that we have here is real.
01:16:20You know that.
01:16:22It's so much easier to hate you than to love you.
01:16:25It's so much easier to hate you than to love you.
01:16:42It's so much easier to hate you than love you, Jesse.
01:16:53Serena, wait!
01:16:55It's done. I'm losing the company tomorrow.
01:16:58I'm just going to leave LA, okay?
01:17:00No, it's not. Because you never said it was.
01:17:03What are you talking about?
01:17:05I told myself to let you hate me and to let you grow.
01:17:09But you never said it.
01:17:15I've been waiting for the right time to give you this.
01:17:20I know that you lost your home and you lost your mother
01:17:22and that it's very hard to believe in somebody again.
01:17:25But if you can change your mind, I can be your home.
01:17:34I'm still the same person that you fell in love with.
01:17:37And I can keep waiting for you.
01:17:39I've done it for five years. I can do it again.
01:17:50Jesse, I can't.
01:17:52Why not?
01:17:58Because I already proposed to you once.
01:18:02Now it's your turn.
01:18:04And you have to do it right.
01:18:12Alright.
01:18:16Serena Monroe.
01:18:20Will you marry me?
01:18:22Again.
01:18:25Yes.
01:18:34I love you, Serena Monroe.
01:18:37I love you too, Jesse Watts.
01:18:39Are there any more secrets that you need to tell me?
01:18:43Not anymore.
01:18:45I promise.
01:18:53I love you.
01:19:13Alright, it's official.
01:19:15Robert and Carol Monroe are officially off the board
01:19:18and are no longer entitled to your company.
01:19:20How does it feel, Madam CEO?
01:19:23Freaking awesome.
01:19:29Oh.
01:19:31I have to go.
01:19:33Thank you, Lynn.
01:19:35You know, actually, why don't you just take the rest of the day off?
01:19:39Sure, but why would I...
01:19:44I heard you were also having the day off.
01:19:47This woman, I swear.
01:19:51I'm sorry.
01:20:08Okay, you can laugh all you want, but I am not getting pesto on this suit.
01:20:12It costs $5,000.
01:20:14I know. I bought it for you.
01:20:17So it's your monthiversary as CEO.
01:20:20How are you feeling, Ms. Monroe?
01:20:22I am feeling
01:20:24excited,
01:20:26powerful,
01:20:28exhausted,
01:20:30and so, so, so hungry.
01:20:32Well, we can take care of that.
01:20:36Do you know that I am so happy for you?
01:20:38That you got your company back.
01:20:40And I am very proud of you, sweetheart.
01:20:43Am I still being too much, or...
01:20:45No, I think it's perfect.
01:20:51What are you thinking?
01:20:54I don't know.
01:20:56This just
01:20:58feels like home.
01:21:13Mother!
01:21:15You have to do something about that bitch!
01:21:17She kicked me and Daddy out of the company!
01:21:20This is all because she married that Jesse Ross.
01:21:25We almost had her.
01:21:27And her company.
01:21:29The worst part is, Ken hasn't been picking up any of my calls
01:21:32or responding to any of my text messages.
01:21:34So he's probably with some new bitch!
01:21:36The only way we do...
01:21:39Stop crying and bitching!
01:21:41Turn on the TV!
01:21:43Last month, Ken Snyder accused his ex-fiancée of
01:21:45cheating.
01:21:47Turns out he was the one who cheated first.
01:21:50And we have photos to prove it.
01:21:56No!
