Transcript
00:00:00Someone went wild last night.
00:00:29Not too bad, as far as the last night of being single goes.
00:00:32I don't get it, man. Why'd she leave without saying goodbye?
00:00:35Maybe she's on the way to the marriage registry to marry you.
00:00:38Yeah, maybe.
00:00:40So, according to your mother's will, as soon as you get married, you'll receive the share she left for you.
00:00:44So I've arranged for someone for you to have a fake marriage with.
00:00:47I trust your taste.
00:00:53Oh, look at that. The woman who agreed to your fake marriage is already on her way.
00:00:57Whoever she is, with that marriage license, the normal group officially becomes mine.
00:01:01So why didn't you go with what your grandfather's arranged for marriage?
00:01:04Man, I'd much rather be that girl from last night, but I don't know if I'm ever going to see her again.
00:01:17It's you.
00:01:48If I had known that you were the person I was going to marry, we could have shared a ride from the hotel.
00:01:52Well, I am short on cash these days, so...
00:01:54Same.
00:01:56I had to borrow the suit.
00:01:57It's a good suit.
00:02:00This is all that I have today.
00:02:02Thank you for coming, and you'll get the rest when we divorce in one year.
00:02:12I guess I deserve an Oscar for my performance today.
00:02:16With the shares from your mother's will, you now own 50% of Laura Group.
00:02:24Inform the whole company. A new era starts today.
00:02:29Sure thing.
00:02:30You murderers.
00:02:32Better watch your backs.
00:02:34I'm coming for you.
00:02:36I'm gonna avenge you.
00:02:38Now.
00:02:44With the shares from your mother's will, you now own 50% of Laura Group.
00:02:49I guess it's time to show them who's boss.
00:02:52Who's boss?
00:03:09What?
00:03:10New presents here?
00:03:20Now?
00:03:26Yes.
00:03:50Renee! Looks like my stepsister decided to crawl back out of hell.
00:03:54Unfortunately for you, I'm here to kick you two out of my mother's company.
00:03:57Your mother's?
00:03:58You know her name means nothing. Now it belongs to my mom.
00:04:02Speaking of her, great job selling off all the company's shares.
00:04:05I'm sure the new president will reward you for that.
00:04:07How did... How did you...
00:04:10That's ridiculous.
00:04:11I think we should settle this in front of everyone.
00:04:16Here they come.
00:04:19As office manager, it is my pleasure to welcome the new president...
00:04:33As office manager, it is my pleasure to welcome the new president...
00:04:39Miss Mara Brown!
00:04:41Who, me?
00:04:42No doubt, Mrs. Brown was the plan B to take over.
00:04:46Are you sure she's the new president of the company?
00:04:49Who else would it be? Your mother from six feet under?
00:04:56Well then you must have the invitation from Norman.
00:04:59What invitation?
00:05:00For the party tonight.
00:05:02They've invited all their business partners, including Laura Group.
00:05:08Of course I do.
00:05:09Great. Then I will see you there.
00:05:14Let's see how long you can keep up the act.
00:05:39Excuse me? How dare you? I'm the president of the Laura Group.
00:05:44I'm sorry ma'am, we can only accept invitations.
00:05:51Oh, looks like I forgot it at home.
00:05:54Can I speak with your manager?
00:05:55Just admit it Mara, you're not the president and you don't have an invitation.
00:05:59Where's your invitation then?
00:06:05Damon, help!
00:06:08This skank is trying to bully me because I didn't have an invitation.
00:06:14Don't worry honeypuff, as the host of this party, I can guarantee no one's going to mess with you.
00:06:21The whole Norman family doesn't welcome someone like you.
00:06:24The host? So that means you're the heir to the Norman family?
00:06:29Yes, I have a lot going on lately.
00:06:35What the fuck are you doing? Get her out of here!
00:06:37Mr. Norman, is that any way to treat a guest?
00:06:48What the fuck are you doing? Get her out of here!
00:06:50Mr. Norman, is that any way to treat a guest?
00:06:56How did you... No, that has to be a fake!
00:07:06May I?
00:07:12Damon, stop her!
00:07:19Really?
00:07:28Dorothy, can you look up Damon Norman for me and top the head of the charity group in here?
00:07:54You alright my dear wife?
00:07:57What are you doing here?
00:08:01You're working.
00:08:04What about you?
00:08:06I'm someone's escort.
00:08:12You do know you're married, right?
00:08:15Of course. I can't just rely on my husband's tips.
00:08:20Your husband sounds like a real jerk.
00:08:23Well, I didn't know about this party for dirty rats.
00:08:27Neither did I, until you showed up.
00:08:38Clean that up.
00:08:44Are you really asking me?
00:08:49Are you really asking me?
00:08:50Well, of course I am. I'm the fiance of the heir to the Norman family.
00:09:05How could you do that? Do you know how much that costs?
00:09:08Well, with the price of the champagne that's on it, I would say your courage just increased in value.
00:09:20It's my stepsister. Sorry that you had to see that.
00:09:26No worries. All families have issues. You should have let me deal with her.
00:09:32Well, I couldn't let you get in trouble.
00:09:38In return, you could have a little authentic husband experience with me.
00:09:44I couldn't afford that.
00:09:49Get the necklace from the safe. Someone deserves a gift.
00:09:57Here's a gift for Ms. Brown.
00:10:18Oh, that's me. Oh, it's beautiful. I bet Damon got this for me.
00:10:25Much better than an invitation, if I do say so myself.
00:10:29Mara, is that the only way you can make yourself feel valuable?
00:10:32Wait, this is for Ms. Renee Brown?
00:10:37I'm Renee Brown. May I ask who sent this?
00:10:42Sorry, I don't know.
00:10:47You bitch. You set this entire thing up with a fake necklace and everything just to embarrass me.
00:10:53Mara, the only person embarrassing you here is yourself.
00:10:57No one has ever given you a gift because you are an unwanted loser.
00:11:02Unwanted? Says who?
00:11:08She's with me.
00:11:10Oh, a skank and a server. How fitting.
00:11:14But you know what, sister? I did think you would go with someone more of like a washed up, in his 80s type.
00:11:20No, thank you. But speaking of losers, you should probably go check in with your fiancé.
00:11:25My fiancé is the A.I.
00:11:31But speaking of losers, you should probably go check in with your fiancé.
00:11:35My fiancé is the heir to the Norman Group.
00:11:39One word and he'll have both of you two out on your asses.
00:11:43I would like to see him try.
00:11:46Damon, come to my rescue please.
00:11:49What's going on?
00:11:51Hello, Damon. So you're her fiancé? The heir to the Norman Group?
00:11:57Yes, speak with some respect.
00:11:59He's full of lies. He's not the real heir.
00:12:09He's not the real heir.
00:12:11Are you accusing him?
00:12:13Why don't you let him speak for himself?
00:12:16Enough. I'll make a scene. Let's go.
00:12:21Let me spell it out for you two.
00:12:23He's the cousin to the heir, who likes to use the family name to scam people.
00:12:29How do you know that?
00:12:31Because I'm the real heir.
00:12:33Heir's assistant. Right, Damon?
00:12:39And you know the cost of lying. Right, Damon?
00:12:45Yes.
00:12:48Just... just let me go. Please.
00:12:59Damon may have been lying, Mara Brown, but you're not fooling me.
00:13:08Damon may have been lying, Mara Brown, but you're not fooling me.
00:13:11It is not your time to speak, so I would shut it if I were you.
00:13:17Can you tell him to meet me at the ballroom? Thank you.
00:13:21May I speak to the president of the Laura Group?
00:13:24That's me. What do you want?
00:13:26Such an honor to finally meet you. Thank you and your company for the generous donation.
00:13:31It will benefit so many children.
00:13:33Oh, yeah, don't worry about it. It's nothing.
00:13:36Would you prefer the five million as a check or a bank transfer?
00:13:40Five million? What?
00:13:43Your assistant asked me to meet you here.
00:13:45Or you could just sign your name on this contract.
00:13:52You framed me.
00:13:54Well, it's not framing if you're the real president.
00:13:57Unless you're lying.
00:14:05You framed me.
00:14:07Well, it's not framing if you're the real president.
00:14:09Unless you're lying.
00:14:15You know what? I don't feel so well.
00:14:18I don't even think I could pick up that pen.
00:14:20You'll have to find me another day.
00:14:26Mara's a fake. I'm such a fool.
00:14:29Don't be too hard on yourself.
00:14:31Well, where's the real president?
00:14:36I know.
00:14:39The real president...
00:14:43is in the office.
00:14:57Can I have a dance with you?
00:15:04Seems like everyone has trust issues tonight.
00:15:07Do you?
00:15:10Like what?
00:15:12Are you really just an assistant?
00:15:20What about you?
00:15:22Are you really an escort?
00:15:24Where's your client?
00:15:29Seems like everyone has secrets.
00:15:33Sometimes the best solution is to just ignore the problem.
00:15:37At least for tonight.
00:15:39I agree.
00:15:41But I have to admit it'll probably be difficult for me going to suppress my curiosity.
00:15:45Then I guess I'll have to keep you busy.
00:15:48How so?
00:16:02I love you.
00:16:33How generous.
00:16:40Dude, Lord Group is dumping our shares.
00:16:43Our stock price is crashing.
00:16:45What?
00:16:53Do we know who the president is yet?
00:16:55I checked every news source. I can't find anything on who the president is.
00:17:00That's impossible.
00:17:02What is it?
00:17:04Laura Brown?
00:17:06The founder of Laura Group?
00:17:08Didn't she pass away like five years ago?
00:17:10I'm going to get to the bottom of this.
00:17:12Phase one completed.
00:17:14Mara and her mother had heavily invested in Norman Group,
00:17:17so now it's time to watch their assets shrink.
00:17:19By the way, I made the donation in your mother's name.
00:17:22Thank you, Dotty.
00:17:24But I've been meaning to ask, won't doing this also affect Laura Group's assets?
00:17:29Nothing ventured, nothing gained.
00:17:31Don't worry, I have a plan.
00:17:34I trust you, but don't overdo it.
00:17:38I have a feeling I'll be meeting the heir of Norman Group very soon.
00:17:42Dear President, it's time to teach you a lesson.
00:17:49Dear President, it's time to teach you a lesson.
00:18:01The informant says the president of Laura Group will be here tonight.
00:18:04I'll flush out this rat, I swear.
00:18:12Renee?
00:18:13Parrot, what are you doing here?
00:18:15I'm here to meet with the real president of the Laura Group.
00:18:18Have you seen...
00:18:23Damn, Paul.
00:18:25I forgot my wallet in the car.
00:18:27Um, why don't you order your drink?
00:18:29It's on me.
00:18:38Are you the one messing with the stocks?
00:18:40You're the president. Shouldn't you be asking yourself that?
00:18:43Well, I just wanted to let you know that we'll be selling off some art pieces to cover the losses.
00:18:49And yeah, that's your mom's last piece.
00:18:52The bid goes for one dollar.
00:19:02And yeah, that's your mom's last piece.
00:19:05The bid goes for one dollar.
00:19:09I hope you have your invitation for the auction.
00:19:13You crazy bitch!
00:19:18Things are different now, sister. I'm going to get every single one of her pieces back.
00:19:22This isn't over!
00:19:27Mom, I'm going to protect your artwork and your company. I promise.
00:19:34Hey, who's got you so down, chica?
00:19:37Leave me alone.
00:19:38No, you need my company.
00:19:44Leave her alone!
00:19:53Who the fuck?
00:19:55I'm her husband.
00:19:56I get it. Someone's unsatisfied.
00:20:09Are you alright?
00:20:12I'm fine. Thank you.
00:20:19You feeling confident?
00:20:20Let's see.
00:20:25Let us go. Unless you want to see some blood.
00:20:30Run.
00:20:42They're not there now.
00:20:45Alright, let's go.
00:20:54They're gone.
00:20:55Yeah.
00:20:57Just to be safe, I think I should hold your hands a little longer.
00:21:02Is just holding my hands enough?
00:21:05Not really.
00:21:07What else do you want?
00:21:38They're trying to humiliate her.
00:21:40We can't let them get away with this.
00:21:42Yeah, but Mara's definitely going to have some tricks up her sleeve.
00:21:45Then we need a white knight.
00:21:52Norman!
00:22:03Are you okay? You sounded urgent on the phone.
00:22:06I need to ask you a favor.
00:22:08As long as I can make it happen.
00:22:10I need you to pretend to be the heir of Norman Group.
00:22:18You want me to impersonate the heir of Norman?
00:22:21The heir's assistant. There's no one better for the job.
00:22:25I can ask him for real.
00:22:27These items were supposed to be my mother's legacy.
00:22:29And then she was kicked out of the group that she founded by Mara's mother.
00:22:33And now they're trying to cash in on her belongings.
00:22:36I need the heir to back you at the auction.
00:22:39You're my only choice.
00:22:46Since you're Laura's daughter, do you know who the new president is?
00:22:53Of course.
00:22:54Who is it?
00:23:00Me.
00:23:06Who is it?
00:23:10Me.
00:23:16I'm sorry, that was a bad joke.
00:23:20Thank goodness that you're not a stand-up comedian.
00:23:25Enough said. I can help you to get those things back.
00:23:47Are you being watched?
00:23:49Not yet.
00:23:50Do I really have to dress like a secret agent?
00:23:53Mara's met you already. She might recognize you.
00:23:56No way.
00:23:58In this outfit?
00:24:00I barely even recognize myself.
00:24:05Renee.
00:24:13Renee.
00:24:25Renee.
00:24:27It's been a long time.
00:24:28Oh, not long enough.
00:24:31Did you even think about saying hello when you got back?
00:24:33You practically fit in with a family of thieves and liars.
00:24:36Isn't that right, Miss President?
00:24:38Oh, sharp tongue just like your mother.
00:24:40I wonder how many auction items you're going to get to buy before you deplete your pocketbook.
00:24:45I wonder what the value of a useless dead body would bring to you tonight.
00:24:50Don't worry.
00:24:52The only thing you can steal from my mother and I is this coward.
00:24:58Welcome to today's auction.
00:25:00Up first, we have a painting by Laura Brown.
00:25:03And we will start the bidding at...
00:25:07$1.
00:25:14$100,000.
00:25:17$101,000.
00:25:19$200,000.
00:25:20$201,000.
00:25:25$500,000.
00:25:31Sold!
00:25:32Congratulations, guest number eight, who is the heir of the Norman Group.
00:25:47Sold!
00:25:48Congratulations, Mr. Norman, on securing all the items thus far.
00:25:53Mom, I have to go for him.
00:25:55Oh, dear. Don't rush it. You've got to play hard to get.
00:25:58For the final item this evening, we have a set of matching rings.
00:26:03My mother's wedding rings.
00:26:04They will start at just $1.
00:26:09$100,000.
00:26:14Do I hear another bid?
00:26:17Sold!
00:26:18Congratulations on securing yet another item.
00:26:22Before you start talking big, you might want to check your bank account.
00:26:26Yeah, you're screwed. Even Norman's heir is on our side.
00:26:30I wouldn't be so sure about that.
00:26:32Congratulations, Ms. Brown. Mr. Norman has transferred all the items in your name.
00:26:37Here's the transfer document.
00:26:42Who's screwed now?
00:26:44Have you met this heir in person?
00:26:46Yeah, why would Mr. Norman help you?
00:26:48Mr. Norman!
00:26:52Wait a second.
00:26:54I knew it! You're the assistant!
00:26:57Assistant? How is the assistant going to pay for all of this?
00:27:01Well, I don't know.
00:27:02I don't know.
00:27:03I don't know.
00:27:04I don't know.
00:27:05I don't know.
00:27:06I don't know.
00:27:07I don't know.
00:27:08I don't know.
00:27:09I don't know.
00:27:10I don't know.
00:27:11I don't know.
00:27:12How is he going to pay for all of this?
00:27:13About that, according to my mother's will, these items are always mine.
00:27:18And now they're finally back where they belong.
00:27:20I see that.
00:27:23Chloe, I have to thank you for holding this auction.
00:27:26Otherwise, I never would have known where you'd hidden them.
00:27:29That orphanage has taught you quite a bit, hasn't it?
00:27:32Wait.
00:27:39All the items today will go to Renee Brown.
00:27:58I wouldn't have gotten these back so quickly if it wasn't for you.
00:28:01I was just doing my job as your husband.
00:28:07I have something for you.
00:28:11Even though this is a marriage of convenience, we should still have rings.
00:28:16Are you sure?
00:28:17It was your mom's.
00:28:19More than ever.
00:28:27Renee Brown.
00:28:31Will you marry me?
00:28:37You're too late.
00:28:39I'm already taken.
00:28:43By you.
00:28:50By you.
00:29:01By you.
00:29:31By you.
00:29:44Hello?
00:29:45Wake up, Renee.
00:29:46Norman Group is fighting back.
00:29:48They're buying up our stock in large quantities.
00:29:50What?
00:29:53Are you sure about that?
00:29:55I'm done lying to her.
00:29:56I'm ready to tell her that I'm the one in charge of the Norman Group.
00:30:02I'm sorry.
00:30:10Something urgent?
00:30:11Yeah, it's... I'll explain later.
00:30:20Maybe next time.
00:30:28I didn't see your reservation, Grandpa.
00:30:31I didn't know I needed permission to come to my old office.
00:30:35How's Florida?
00:30:36Not bad.
00:30:38Until I found out that you're married to somebody I don't even know...
00:30:43Yep.
00:30:44My ship has sailed.
00:30:46Nothing you can do about it.
00:30:48Is that so?
00:30:50I've already called Fiona back from Europe.
00:30:53Get ready for your marriage with her.
00:30:55I'm already the head of the Norman Group.
00:30:58Not even you can interfere with my life anymore.
00:31:02No.
00:31:04You don't know what I'm capable of, young man.
00:31:14It's a good thing we reacted quickly.
00:31:16Damage wasn't too severe.
00:31:19How come we're meeting here and not at your house?
00:31:23Barrett's there.
00:31:24Wait, are you two living together?
00:31:26No, not yet.
00:31:28Still haven't told him.
00:31:32Hello?
00:31:34Are you available tonight?
00:31:36I have something to tell you.
00:31:46What happened?
00:31:47Nothing. Just some family issues.
00:31:50Well, I'm an expert in that.
00:31:54If you are having family issues, you could always come stay at my place.
00:31:59My place?
00:32:00Are you asking me to move in with you?
00:32:03Will you?
00:32:06Barry, I missed you so much.
00:32:09Fiona!
00:32:19It's been so long. Do you still like black coffee?
00:32:22No, thank you.
00:32:24I admire your devotion.
00:32:26And who is she?
00:32:29This is Renee. She's my...
00:32:30His blind date.
00:32:32Really?
00:32:33Yeah.
00:32:35But I have to think twice about whether to continue.
00:32:38Well, I guess I've been gone for too long.
00:32:41But I came back to marry Barrett.
00:32:43Isn't that right?
00:32:46Fiona, I'm already married and Renee...
00:32:48I know.
00:32:50But Benjamin told me that you're willing to divorce her anytime for me.
00:32:54Is that so?
00:32:55Good to know.
00:32:57Excuse me for a moment. You two can wrap it up.
00:33:03Renee, let me explain first.
00:33:05Explain what?
00:33:07You have a gravely ill grandfather, you have to marry a wealthy woman to pay for his treatment?
00:33:12That is such a cliche, even for a soap opera.
00:33:15Wait!
00:33:17It's not true.
00:33:26What's going on?
00:33:27You two had a fight?
00:33:29None of your business.
00:33:30Barry, I haven't had time to book a hotel yet.
00:33:33Why don't I stay at your place?
00:33:37Such a gentleman would never say no.
00:33:40Sweet dreams, both of you.
00:33:45Enough! I'm not gonna divorce Renee and I'm certainly not gonna get married to you.
00:33:49So she's your quickie wife?
00:33:51Now I know why Benjamin called me.
00:33:53She's not a quickie.
00:33:56She's the love of my life.
00:34:22You invited me.
00:34:23No taking backsies.
00:34:26No.
00:34:49I thought you were gonna leave me.
00:34:51No chance.
00:34:57The thing I fear the most is deceit and betrayal.
00:35:03I know.
00:35:05And I won't do either of those things.
00:35:08Do you promise?
00:35:10I promise.
00:35:14No one kisses me right now.
00:35:27I don't recall ever seeing any jokes in there.
00:35:30No, man.
00:35:31I moved in with Renee.
00:35:33Oh yeah.
00:35:34Totally normal thing to do.
00:35:36For a married couple.
00:35:38Okay, look, I'm just waiting for the right time to properly propose.
00:35:42What do you think about me purchasing the Laura group as a gift for her?
00:35:46You think she'll like it?
00:35:48Oh my God, I hate rich people.
00:35:51Come on, man.
00:35:52I mean it.
00:35:53Come on, man.
00:35:54I mean it.
00:35:55Look, it was founded by her mom, right?
00:35:57I know that we still don't know who the president is,
00:36:00but the company deserves to be back in the hands of its rightful owner.
00:36:03Alright.
00:36:05Romeo.
00:36:07The front desk handed this to me.
00:36:09Said it was from someone anonymous.
00:36:14Wait a second.
00:36:17Isn't this the room that me and Renee first met?
00:36:20Don't tell me she's planning on proposing officially as well.
00:36:24We'll see.
00:36:38Renee?
00:36:41Oh, hi.
00:36:49Nice.
00:37:03I just keep loving you more.
00:37:06Me too.
00:37:08What the hell?
00:37:10I can take you there.
00:37:11Hey, don't worry.
00:37:13What happens here stays here.
00:37:16No.
00:37:17You're psychotic.
00:37:19Does she know who you really are?
00:37:21You two are from completely different worlds.
00:37:24There's no future for you and her.
00:37:26Thanks for your input.
00:37:28If you leave, you're gonna regret it.
00:37:30If I stay, I'll regret it.
00:37:32Don't think about pulling any more tricks.
00:37:34I can pull all of your company's investments in a second.
00:37:50You have something for me?
00:37:52I'm sorry, but you deserve to know.
00:37:58I know you're married to him.
00:38:00And I said no at first, but as you know, his passion is unstoppable.
00:38:08Don't be sad over a marriage.
00:38:10It's not worth it.
00:38:12It's not worth it.
00:38:13It's not worth it.
00:38:14It's not worth it.
00:38:15It's not worth it.
00:38:16It's not worth it.
00:38:17Don't be sad over a man who doesn't love you.
00:38:23Is that it?
00:38:26What do you mean?
00:38:27Are you okay with your husband cheating on you?
00:38:29Why not?
00:38:32I'd have told Renee everything.
00:38:35Your plan failed.
00:38:43Better luck next time.
00:38:45No, stop.
00:38:46That won't work on me.
00:38:48You could make some real money on OnlyFans, though.
00:38:51Go back to Europe, Fiona.
00:38:53And don't ever come back.
00:38:56Renee, do you really trust your husband?
00:39:00Don't bother.
00:39:02I know he has his secrets.
00:39:05And I've got mine.
00:39:07We've promised to give each other space.
00:39:10Enjoy your flight, Fiona.
00:39:14Okay.
00:39:39Finally.
00:39:41What's got you so happy?
00:39:46You don't have to wait for tonight.
00:39:47You can't tell me no.
00:39:49Gotta keep some level of surprise and suspense in our relationship.
00:39:52Drama queen.
00:39:58Renee, Norman Group just became our largest shareholder.
00:40:00I need you at the office now.
00:40:04Norman.
00:40:11Norman.
00:40:16What's wrong?
00:40:17Something happen?
00:40:18Something urgent just came up.
00:40:19I gotta go.
00:40:21Don't forget to be back by seven.
00:40:23I've got something important planned.
00:40:30What's going on?
00:40:31How did Norman Group buy into our company?
00:40:33Mara and Chloe sold their shares to Norman Group to cash out.
00:40:36Plus, the other shares that Norman Group has.
00:40:38Norman Group now owns 50% of the company.
00:40:41Well, do we know who's behind this?
00:40:44The company is now expecting their president out there.
00:40:47Are you sure about this?
00:40:50What are you doing here?
00:40:59What are you doing here?
00:41:02I've been meaning to talk to you.
00:41:04What are you doing here?
00:41:05What are you doing here?
00:41:07I've been meaning to introduce myself properly.
00:41:10I'm the president of Laura Group.
00:41:13Even if you are the president,
00:41:15I know that you don't have any power because of the Norman Group.
00:41:18What a shame.
00:41:19The Norman Group is well on its way to taking over this company.
00:41:23I wonder how long your struggle will be before your defeat.
00:41:26Security!
00:41:27Kick her out.
00:41:28I don't want her going anywhere near the office.
00:41:30Don't let her even take a picture.
00:41:31No, until Norman Group holds their shareholder meeting,
00:41:34I still have control of this company.
00:41:35Let me go!
00:41:37Are you really going to let them steal from my mom again?
00:41:39It still belongs to our family.
00:41:41Family.
00:41:43How can you lose that word, you coward?
00:41:45Well, it looks like the wild child is lacking etiquette.
00:41:49I think you need a lesson.
00:41:52Don't you dare!
00:41:54What?
00:42:02Don't you dare!
00:42:03What?
00:42:08This is my final warning.
00:42:11This is a Brown family matter.
00:42:13You need not get involved.
00:42:15Funny, I don't see myself standing in the Brown family household.
00:42:18Is the heir's assistant always so audacious?
00:42:21Actually, I'm here on behalf of Mr. Norman
00:42:24to appoint Renee as the new president of the Laura Group.
00:42:28Are you serious?
00:42:29You heard me right.
00:42:31Now, I assume you would like to clear out these three?
00:42:34I am so sorry, but since you've traded away all of your shares,
00:42:37you no longer have any stake in the Laura Group.
00:42:40Please leave.
00:42:42Let's go, ladies. Let's go.
00:42:50Let me get this straight.
00:42:52Norman Group, as the largest shareholder of Laura Group,
00:42:55wants me to be president?
00:42:57Indeed.
00:42:59I don't understand why they would do that.
00:43:01I don't have any connection to them.
00:43:04Except...
00:43:13I don't have any connection to them.
00:43:16Except...
00:43:19Well, I was going to tell you tonight.
00:43:21Actually, I...
00:43:22Are you really just Mr. Norman's assistant?
00:43:24Huh?
00:43:25My relationship to him is through you.
00:43:27How did you convince him to do it?
00:43:29Have you been opposing him the whole time?
00:43:31Opposing him? What do you mean?
00:43:33I should have told you sooner.
00:43:38I've been president of Laura Group all along.
00:43:40Wait.
00:43:42So you're the reason for the stock drop?
00:43:45Well, let's take it as a happy coincidence.
00:43:52It must have taken you a lot to make this happen.
00:43:54You have to let me meet Mr. Norman.
00:43:57Sure.
00:43:59Sure.
00:44:01What are you waiting for?
00:44:15Dude.
00:44:17Why didn't you come clean back there?
00:44:19It's too much for her to process today.
00:44:21I'll take it to her another day.
00:44:23What are you hesitating for, man?
00:44:24Isn't it a good thing for
00:44:26the husband to be loaded eye candy?
00:44:28Renee isn't shallow like that.
00:44:30If she finds out that she lost to me
00:44:32in this business arrangement,
00:44:34she's not going to be happy.
00:44:36Well, you played the game and you won.
00:44:38She needs to accept that.
00:44:40She can lose, okay?
00:44:42But not to me in disguise.
00:44:44It's different.
00:44:46I guess marriage is hard.
00:44:48Can't wait to see your wedding day.
00:44:54The thing I fear most is
00:44:56deceit and betrayal.
00:45:08Congrats, Renee.
00:45:10I always knew you were something special.
00:45:12Really? Then who was it that mistook
00:45:14Mara for the president?
00:45:16Well, everyone makes mistakes.
00:45:18But that won't happen again
00:45:20now that you're in charge.
00:45:22Whoa, that necklace is gorgeous.
00:45:24Only someone like you could pull it off.
00:45:26What, this?
00:45:28No, this is a knockoff.
00:45:30Barrett gave it to me at a party to show off
00:45:32and I wear it for fun.
00:45:34No way.
00:45:36I've never made mistakes in luxury.
00:45:38There's no chance that's a knockoff.
00:45:40Alright, I'm not going to hold you accountable
00:45:42for the past.
00:45:44You can stop with the flattery.
00:45:46For short, stop sucking up.
00:45:48Don't you have work to be doing?
00:45:50Yeah, yeah, I'm on it.
00:45:52But seriously, that necklace is real.
00:45:54That necklace is real.
00:45:56No flattery, just facts.
00:46:01What if Carl's right?
00:46:03How much would that cost?
00:46:05No.
00:46:07Even though he works for Norman Group,
00:46:09something like this would still be a stretch.
00:46:11Unless...
00:46:13Because I'm the real heir.
00:46:15Assistant.
00:46:17I came back to marry Barrett.
00:46:19I was going to tell you tonight
00:46:21that I'm going to marry you.
00:46:22I'm going to marry Barrett.
00:46:24I was going to tell you tonight.
00:46:26Actually, um...
00:46:28No.
00:46:30Barrett is nothing like those trust fund kids.
00:46:33Hold on.
00:46:37The necklace is real.
00:46:39Look.
00:46:41Your Barrett is Barrett Norman,
00:46:43the heir to the Norman Group.
00:46:48Dude, don't bother confessing.
00:46:50Looks like someone already did it for you.
00:46:52What?
00:46:54Who did this?
00:47:03Get the PR team in here.
00:47:05I want this article redacted
00:47:07and any rumors squashed immediately.
00:47:10Hi.
00:47:12You have a visitor.
00:47:14Not now!
00:47:18So the article was true.
00:47:22Let me explain.
00:47:24I was going to tell you earlier
00:47:26but then I found out that you were the...
00:47:28Well, I found out that I was the president
00:47:30of the company you acquired.
00:47:32You're a defeated opponent, right?
00:47:34Not true.
00:47:36Then what is the truth?
00:47:38Were you afraid to hurt my pride
00:47:40or was it just fun for you to watch me be fooled?
00:47:42You don't get it, Renee.
00:47:44I acquired the lower group for you as a gift.
00:47:46I know how important it is to you and your mom.
00:47:48Don't talk about my mother!
00:47:50I don't get it.
00:47:52I need your mercy!
00:47:54I had a plan.
00:47:56I was capable of doing it myself.
00:47:58I was your husband.
00:48:00I wanted to help you carry the burden.
00:48:02Is that so wrong?
00:48:04No.
00:48:06Not anymore.
00:48:08What's that supposed to mean?
00:48:14Have your lawyer contact mine.
00:48:16We're getting a divorce.
00:48:18Renee.
00:48:23Did you really mean it about the divorce?
00:48:25Shouldn't you two talk things over?
00:48:27What is there to talk about?
00:48:29We're just different kinds of people.
00:48:31Pretty much the same to me.
00:48:33Both executives.
00:48:35Both enjoy identity games.
00:48:37I thought that you were supposed to be on my side.
00:48:39I am.
00:48:42I feel like you're being a little too impulsive.
00:48:44If Barrett had known you as the president
00:48:46maybe he wouldn't have acted like this.
00:48:48Maybe he wouldn't have done what he did.
00:48:49If Barrett had known you as the president
00:48:51maybe he wouldn't have acted like this.
00:48:53Maybe he would have assisted you in a different way.
00:48:55Maybe that's my issue.
00:48:58The Browns think money can solve anything.
00:49:01Including love and dignity.
00:49:05I don't know if Barrett's like that too.
00:49:08You do.
00:49:10You know deep down Barrett isn't like that.
00:49:20Should I trust you Barrett?
00:49:33Renee.
00:49:35What do I have to do to get you back?
00:49:50Oh.
00:49:57Hey.
00:49:59You're back.
00:50:01I'm sorry.
00:50:03I did it out of love for you.
00:50:05Please forgive me.
00:50:07It's okay.
00:50:09I have my faults too.
00:50:11So you're not divorcing me?
00:50:13Why should I?
00:50:15I'm not dreaming am I?
00:50:20No.
00:50:22This is real.
00:50:26Let's get you to bed.
00:50:36Relax.
00:50:38Come here Renee.
00:50:49What the hell are you doing here?
00:51:09Fiona.
00:51:11What the hell are you doing here?
00:51:12What the hell are you doing here?
00:51:19What the hell are you doing here?
00:51:22Don't you remember?
00:51:24It was you who suggested we get together last night.
00:51:26What?
00:51:28No way.
00:51:30Last night it was Renee.
00:51:32It was you.
00:51:34Don't get close to me.
00:51:38And keep your mouth shut.
00:51:39If you don't I won't let you live it down.
00:52:03Where are the photos?
00:52:10You seem not mad.
00:52:12He made his decision.
00:52:14Aren't you guys getting a divorce?
00:52:16You seem well informed.
00:52:18Regardless, Barrett is still a shareholder in my company and it's my job to protect our reputation from people like you.
00:52:26Well.
00:52:29I admire your sanity.
00:52:33Have a drink with me and I'll give you all the photos.
00:52:36And I'll leave Barrett alone.
00:52:40Okay.
00:52:53Did you drug me?
00:52:56Yes.
00:52:58I did.
00:53:00And by the way, I was the one who wrote the article revealing Barrett's identity.
00:53:10Barrett.
00:53:20Renee?
00:53:29Remember to sign these papers.
00:53:31The company rightfully belongs to you.
00:53:35That was my promise.
00:53:36Maybe my last one.
00:53:52I love you.
00:53:59Mr. Norman?
00:54:01What are you doing here? Where's Renee?
00:54:03I need your help.
00:54:04Renee's missing.
00:54:06Missing?
00:54:25Do we really have to?
00:54:27She's still my daughter.
00:54:29Zip it.
00:54:30You want the money or not.
00:54:31Dad, as long as she's willing to sign, we'll let her live.
00:54:44You must be starving.
00:54:48You know I'm allergic to nuts, right?
00:54:55Look, Renee.
00:54:57Just sign the documents.
00:54:59Sign your shares over to Chloe and I guarantee you she'll let you go.
00:55:04Let me go?
00:55:06Did you give my mom that choice?
00:55:09Just kill me, if you dare.
00:55:24My detectives are still searching.
00:55:25But her last location update was 12 hours ago.
00:55:29Alright, keep me in the loop.
00:55:38What are you doing here?
00:55:40Barry, why do you look so stressed?
00:55:43How did you get in?
00:55:45I just walked in.
00:55:47As your fiancé.
00:55:48Get out.
00:55:50You are the last person I want to see right now.
00:55:56Kick me out and you'll never see her again.
00:56:04Where is she?
00:56:06She's alive.
00:56:08For now.
00:56:10But only if you agree to one condition.
00:56:13What do you want?
00:56:16Marry me.
00:56:26What do you want?
00:56:29Marry me.
00:56:32You're sick.
00:56:34You kidnapped Renee just so that you could marry me?
00:56:38Don't flatter yourself.
00:56:40It was never you that I wanted.
00:56:43What do you mean?
00:56:45Well, ever since I was born, everyone swore to me that I was going to be the future Mrs. Norman.
00:56:51So this is all just about power.
00:56:53Exactly.
00:56:55Blame it on being the head of the Norman Company.
00:56:58You were always destined to be my husband.
00:57:05Take your time to think about it.
00:57:08But not too long.
00:57:10She's got a lot of enemies.
00:57:18Enemies?
00:57:20Paul, find Damon for me. Right now.
00:57:32Go after her!
00:57:38Just give me three days and I'll get your money back, I promise.
00:57:42Where is Maura Brown?
00:57:45I wouldn't know. She broke up with me a long time ago.
00:57:47I wouldn't know. She broke up with me a long time ago.
00:57:52So you want me to call your creditors over here?
00:57:55Okay. Okay. But I swear I had nothing to do with the kidnapping.
00:57:59How much do you know?
00:58:01Maura asked me to help her. I didn't. I didn't.
00:58:05Wait. Then how could you know where she is?
00:58:07I have Maura's GPS. This is their location.
00:58:17Okay.
00:58:26We can't tip them off until we make our move.
00:58:34I agree to get engaged with you.
00:58:39Paul, you need a new suit.
00:58:47Okay.
00:59:05Didn't Miss Norman just get married? Why is he getting engaged again?
00:59:10It's a business marriage. It's pretty common.
00:59:13If you're going to act, do it right.
00:59:17I'm not as fake as you. I can't pull it off.
00:59:22Make me happy and that woman might stay alive.
00:59:32Excuse me, Your Majesty. I have a very important phone call to make. I'll be back.
00:59:42What?
00:59:51I need her dead. Now.
01:00:02I have a very important phone call to make. I'll be back.
01:00:06Here's the keys to your rental. It'll keep them from spotting you.
01:00:10Thanks, man.
01:00:11Yeah.
01:00:12I really appreciate you coming through for this.
01:00:15You gotta hurry. Okay? I don't want to be here for too long.
01:00:19Go.
01:00:20Thanks, buddy.
01:00:21Okay.
01:00:22Go.
01:00:23Hurry.
01:00:29Go kill her. The owner will hand the company over to you.
01:00:32Go kill her. The owner will hand the company over to us.
01:00:36Do it fast, Dad. I'll meet you outside.
01:00:43I'm so sorry, Renee.
01:00:57I'm so sorry, Renee.
01:01:02Sorry? Did you ever feel sorry for my mother?
01:01:05It was my fault. I had no choice.
01:01:08But you did. And you chose to sacrifice her.
01:01:13Just do it. I'm ready.
01:01:15I'm ready.
01:01:31Renee!
01:01:32Oh my god, are you alright?
01:01:36Let's get you out of here.
01:01:37Not so fast!
01:01:41Toodaloo, lovebirds!
01:01:46Gunshot
01:01:54What took you so long?
01:02:05Where's Barret?
01:02:09I'm here.
01:02:15I'm here.
01:02:21Not so fast!
01:02:24Toodaloo, lovebirds!
01:02:34Game over!
01:02:35Game over!
01:02:45You're alive?
01:02:46You seem surprised.
01:02:51What happened to you?
01:02:52Why don't you ask Fiona?
01:02:53I didn't do anything. This was a setup.
01:02:56Maybe you should ask them instead.
01:03:06Uncle Ben! Help me!
01:03:08Weren't you always on my side?
01:03:12Well, I'm no longer your head of the family.
01:03:16Do whatever you need to do.
01:03:19Hey, let go of me!
01:03:26This isn't over!
01:03:36Sorry.
01:03:38Till death do us part.
01:03:40Till death do us part.
01:03:43Toodaloo, lovebirds!
01:04:02Look!
01:04:03My stock just hit an all-time high.
01:04:05Nice!
01:04:06Double that and it might be worth half of our price.
01:04:09Well, give me a year and I'll definitely surpass you.
01:04:14Sure thing.
01:04:20Miss Brown, about the divorce application you submitted a few months ago...
01:04:24We won't need it.
01:04:28What did you say, Miss Brown?
01:04:30Just how we do this thing?
01:04:39I don't know.
