00:00:00Billionaire from Montgomery Enterprises, Aston Montgomery, who is known for his corporate
00:00:11ruthlessness.
00:00:12Stella Evans?
00:00:14You didn't even graduate from college?
00:00:20Mr. Montgomery is your love child.
00:00:24You said there'd be no more scandals.
00:00:26No.
00:00:27There are no scandals.
00:00:28You will be my fiance and the mother of my child until my father signs the company over
00:00:32to me.
00:00:33Then I will pay you five million dollars.
00:00:35Fine.
00:00:36But only because my rent's already overdue.
00:00:37It's hard to believe you had a baby less than a year ago.
00:00:43Montgomery's don't associate with peasants.
00:00:45Touch my wife again, I will end you.
00:00:46No, my baby!
00:00:47Maybe life with Aston won't be so bad after all.
00:00:52I would do anything for you, anything for our family.
00:00:56Aston isn't the man you think he is, whatever feelings you think he may have.
00:01:01I love you, Stella Evans.
00:01:03It's all just one big lie.
00:01:06I have meant every word I have said to you.
00:01:09I'm in, Stella.
00:01:10I'm all in.
00:01:11Are you?
00:01:27You have to be prepared.
00:01:32I don't have long.
00:01:35I'm not going to let you die, Mo.
00:01:38You're going to beat this cancer.
00:01:48Danny, what are you doing?
00:01:50What does it look like I'm doing?
00:01:52Your rent's late.
00:01:53You're digging it.
00:01:57It's two days late, and you said it wouldn't be an issue.
00:02:03I changed my mind.
00:02:05So, unless you want to pay up with that tight little lot of yours, you're out by tomorrow morning.
00:02:15Please, you know my mom's cancer treatments are expensive, and I've never been late before.
00:02:22Stop it.
00:02:24You should have thought of that before dumping me.
00:02:28I'll get you the money.
00:02:30I have a job interview today, and the signing bonus will be more than enough to cover it.
00:02:35Just give me 24 hours.
00:02:39Then you better get that job.
00:02:42Tick-tock, cupcake.
00:02:52Billionaire financer Robert Montgomery has announced his retirement from Montgomery Enterprises this morning, the company he built five decades ago.
00:03:07His successor is presumed to be Aston Montgomery, his eldest son and heir, who is known not only for his playboy ways, but his corporate ruthlessness.
00:03:18Stella Evans?
00:03:21Come with me.
00:03:31So, you don't have any corporate experience, and you didn't even graduate from college?
00:03:38Well, something came up at home, and I couldn't.
00:03:42I'm not running a charity, Ms. Evans. I'm sorry, but I can't hire you.
00:03:46Please. I really need the money.
00:03:51So do 400 other applicants. What makes you so special?
00:03:58My mom and I are about to get evicted. I really need this money.
00:04:04Look, I'm sorry, but I can't help you.
00:04:08This interview is over.
00:04:11Hey, you can't just walk away from me, you entitled prick.
00:04:16What did you say to me?
00:04:17You heard me, just because you think you're better than everyone else.
00:04:27Shut up.
00:04:35You know what you...
00:04:38You know what you...
00:04:46What is that doing in my office?
00:05:00That, Mr. Montgomery, is your love child.
00:05:08I love you.
00:05:21I'm a father.
00:05:25What? What do I do?
00:05:28You said you needed a job. Help me.
00:05:38God, she's still crying.
00:05:47I can't believe that worked.
00:05:49See? You didn't need my help after all.
00:05:59So the rumors are true. I'm a grandfather.
00:06:02No, Father, this is not...
00:06:04No, Father, this is not...
00:06:05The board will never let an irresponsible playboy lead the company.
00:06:10You said there'd be no more scandals.
00:06:13I have no choice but to turn the company over to your brother, Clive.
00:06:16No, Father, there are no scandals.
00:06:21Father, this is Stella.
00:06:24My fiance and the mother of my child.
00:06:28What the fuck?
00:06:35Excuse me?
00:06:37You expect me to believe this low-class woman is your fiance?
00:06:41Do not speak about her that way.
00:06:43I love her.
00:06:45And I'm tired of hiding it.
00:06:48Right, honey?
00:06:52Please go with it.
00:06:59Right!
00:07:01Even in secret, Aston is a wonderful fiance.
00:07:07On the outside, he's a...
00:07:11hardened businessman.
00:07:13But on the inside, he's a total sweetheart.
00:07:16Well, only for you.
00:07:19You saw through it the moment we met.
00:07:23Don't mistake me for a fool, son.
00:07:25If I find out you're lying,
00:07:27I will strip you of the company and your inheritance.
00:07:30And you'll have nothing left.
00:07:40Okay, we need to figure this out.
00:07:42We? Oh, there is no we. I am so out of here.
00:07:45No, you can't go. I need you.
00:07:53You're a billionaire. You can have any woman.
00:07:55Why me?
00:07:57You said you needed money, right?
00:07:59I happen to have a lot of it.
00:08:02Be my fiance and the mother of my child
00:08:05until my father signs the company over to me.
00:08:08Then I will pay you five million dollars.
00:08:11We can go our separate ways,
00:08:13and we will never see each other again.
00:08:15Five million dollars could change everything.
00:08:17It could help me save my mom.
00:08:19Do we have a deal, Miss Evans?
00:08:21Fine. But only because my rent's overdue,
00:08:24and I need you to pay it.
00:08:26Done.
00:08:30I'll have my assistant wire the money today.
00:08:33And you're mine.
00:08:35Starting right now.
00:08:52Mr. Montgomery! Mr. Montgomery!
00:08:54Excuse me! Excuse me!
00:08:56Why are you trying to keep this under wraps, sir?
00:08:58Step aside! Mr. Montgomery!
00:09:00How do you hide your fiance and child for so long?
00:09:02Miss Evans, did you have this baby on purpose to trap him?
00:09:05Don't!
00:09:07Ignore me, bitch.
00:09:09Be a good girl.
00:09:11Give me that watch. Get off of her!
00:09:13Come on, sweetheart.
00:09:15You're just a little gold digger, aren't you?
00:09:19It's nice to meet her!
00:09:21Mr. Montgomery! Mr. Montgomery!
00:09:23Excuse me! Stop! Stop!
00:09:26You want a quote? Fine.
00:09:28Our engagement announcement was ruined
00:09:31by some grabby asshole with a camera.
00:09:35And one more thing.
00:09:37Touch my fiance again, I'll break more than just your camera.
00:09:40Sir! Sir!
00:09:42Can we answer our questions, please?
00:09:44You cannot ignore us, Mr. Montgomery.
00:09:46Come on now, Mr. Montgomery.
00:09:48What do you have to say?
00:10:02This place is beautiful.
00:10:06So what do we do now?
00:10:09Simple.
00:10:11We do what fiancés do.
00:10:16What?
00:10:27Look at me.
00:10:42What the hell was that?
00:10:44This is part of the deal.
00:10:46We have to sell it.
00:10:48I have someone looking into where Emma came from.
00:10:50It should all be sorted out soon.
00:10:52What will be sorted, brother?
00:10:54Clive?
00:10:56Welcome home.
00:10:58This fiancé and baby certainly came out of nowhere, didn't they?
00:11:02What are you doing here, Clive?
00:11:04I came to meet my niece and soon-to-be sister-in-law, you know.
00:11:08Since it all happened so fast.
00:11:12Stella...
00:11:14Evans, is it?
00:11:17And what trash barrel did you crawl out of?
00:11:22The trash barrel I crawled out of is none of your business.
00:11:26Oh, contraire, mon chéri.
00:11:29It's most definitely my business.
00:11:32The Montgomerys don't associate with peasants.
00:11:35Bad for business.
00:11:36Leave her alone!
00:11:38Or what?
00:11:39Care to find out?
00:11:43Care to find out?
00:11:47So, my playboy brother does have feelings.
00:11:50And for a low-class gold digger, no less.
00:11:54Be careful.
00:11:56It's only a matter of time before he dumps you and that baby back into the gutter where you came from.
00:12:03She's cute.
00:12:08Looks just like you, brother.
00:12:17Get away from our baby and get out of our house!
00:12:20Fine.
00:12:21But there's something weird going on here, and I'll find out what it is.
00:12:25The CEO position will be mine.
00:12:28The CEO position will be mine.
00:12:31And the first thing I'll do is fire you, brother.
00:12:46Is everyone in your family like that?
00:12:49My half-brother is just the tip of the iceberg.
00:12:52So keep your guard up.
00:12:58I have a few things I have to do.
00:13:01Your room is upstairs.
00:13:06What have I gotten myself into?
00:13:09At least I'll be able to take care of my mom when this is all over.
00:13:12If there's anything you need while I'm gone, just call.
00:13:15But the nurse will take care of you.
00:13:17How did you get the money for a nurse?
00:13:19It's so expensive.
00:13:21I...
00:13:23I got a job.
00:13:24Don't worry about me.
00:13:29I gotta go.
00:13:30I'll see you soon.
00:13:43Holy hot.
00:13:50See something you like?
00:13:55I...
00:13:58Miss Evans?
00:14:00Everything okay?
00:14:04Emma needs us.
00:14:07Right behind you.
00:14:15What's wrong with her?
00:14:18Hey, baby.
00:14:20Hey.
00:14:22There you go.
00:14:24Good job, baby girl.
00:14:26How did you do that?
00:14:28She just wanted to be held.
00:14:30You should hold her.
00:14:31Oh, I don't know about that.
00:14:33She's your daughter.
00:14:35She probably wants you more than anyone else.
00:14:39Trust me.
00:14:40I wish my dad was around.
00:14:42I've never held a baby before, and she's so little, I don't want to hurt her.
00:14:51Okay.
00:14:52Baby steps.
00:14:54Say goodnight to your daughter.
00:15:05Goodnight, Emma.
00:15:18It's the private investigator.
00:15:20The sooner I find out who Emma's mom is, the better.
00:15:40Did the private chef make all this?
00:15:43No.
00:15:45I did.
00:15:48A playboy billionaire who cooks.
00:15:51Maybe I misjudged you.
00:15:53Not such a prick after all, huh?
00:15:56Maybe life with Aston won't be so bad after all.
00:16:03But back to business.
00:16:06My family is coming over for dinner tonight.
00:16:11They want to meet you.
00:16:13Your family?
00:16:14Aston, I can't...
00:16:15Oh, you can.
00:16:17And you will.
00:16:26This is part of the deal.
00:16:28If you want the money, everyone has to believe that you're my fiancée and the mother of my child, starting with my family.
00:16:39Mom?
00:16:41Mom!
00:16:43Can you hear me?
00:16:45My mom's in trouble.
00:16:52Danny, what are you doing?
00:16:54I paid you!
00:16:56Well, I changed my mind when I heard you were shacking up with some billionaire.
00:17:06Don't touch those!
00:17:08That's all we have. Without them, she'll die.
00:17:11Well, now that you've come into some money, you can pay me more.
00:17:15Two years rent should do it.
00:17:17She'll pay you what she owes you, not a cent more.
00:17:26Is this your billionaire boyfriend?
00:17:28Actually, he's my fiancée.
00:17:32And he's rich and powerful.
00:17:36He has a bigger dick than you.
00:17:41You really think you're good enough for him?
00:17:46I only fucked you because I felt sorry for you and your dying time.
00:17:57Stella is more than good enough for me. If you touch her again, I will kill you.
00:18:01Those were for my fiancée, and this one's for me.
00:18:08Stella?
00:18:10Mom!
00:18:12Mom!
00:18:14Hey, hey.
00:18:16Stella?
00:18:18Stella, you took my medicine.
00:18:22I have it right here, Mrs. Evans.
00:18:24That man will never bother you again.
00:18:26I will make sure of it.
00:18:30And I'm sending someone for your things. They're coming to live with us.
00:18:43Thank you for helping me with my mom.
00:18:46You're welcome.
00:18:49Thank you for helping me with my mom.
00:18:53That wasn't part of the deal.
00:19:00Not everything I do has to be about our deal, Stella.
00:19:12Still, thank you.
00:19:17And I'm sorry for calling you a prick earlier.
00:19:19Why?
00:19:21I can be a prick.
00:19:23When I really want to be.
00:19:27Speaking of our deal.
00:19:29Be ready by 7 p.m. for the family dinner.
00:19:33But I have nothing to wear.
00:19:37I'll take care of that.
00:19:45Okay.
00:20:15I hoped you'd pick the red.
00:20:17You look beautiful.
00:20:21I'm still debating what shoes to wear, though.
00:20:23Allow me.
00:20:55There's one thing missing.
00:21:03There's one thing missing.
00:21:09A ring.
00:21:12May I?
00:21:16Yes.
00:21:18It's beautiful, but it's too much.
00:21:22It's only for appearances, nothing more.
00:21:25Please wear it.
00:21:37Shall we?
00:21:45Yes.
00:21:59You ready to sell this?
00:22:07Asked in a word.
00:22:11It'll take a moment.
00:22:15Go.
00:22:18I'll be fine.
00:22:33Stella!
00:22:35How nice of you to join us.
00:22:37This is the woman who trapped our Aston with a bastard child.
00:22:43Funny.
00:22:45It's hard to believe that you had a baby less than a year ago.
00:22:49Mother, be nice.
00:22:51I'm sure Stella's trying her best.
00:22:58Oh, I didn't know Aston had a sister.
00:23:03Sister?
00:23:04No.
00:23:05I'm Clarissa.
00:23:08Aston's ex-fiancée.
00:23:13Oh, God.
00:23:15Is she pregnant with Aston's baby?
00:23:20No wonder Aston didn't introduce you earlier.
00:23:23You're nothing like me.
00:23:25And thank God for that.
00:23:27Stella would never cheat on me and get knocked up by my brother.
00:23:30At least we didn't hide our child from the entire family.
00:23:34That's right.
00:23:35Where even is my step-grandbaby?
00:23:39Where even is my step-grandbaby?
00:23:42You see, Robert, he's as negligent a father as he would be a CEO.
00:23:47She's with the nanny.
00:23:49To keep her from the judgment of people like you.
00:23:51All that matters is our judgment.
00:23:54And bringing in this peasant certainly doesn't help your case.
00:23:59Excuse me?
00:24:01Who are you calling peasant?
00:24:03Being rich doesn't mean you can walk all over me.
00:24:07How dare you talk back to me like that?
00:24:13You can't even control your worthless fiancée.
00:24:17You'll never be good enough to be CEO.
00:24:23Aston is the only person who should run Montgomery Enterprises.
00:24:26Anyone else's CEO would be a mistake.
00:24:29Especially your son.
00:24:37You have upset my fiancée and I won't stand for that.
00:24:41Dinner is cancelled.
00:24:43Get out of my house.
00:24:47Now.
00:25:06I'm sorry if I was out of line.
00:25:08No.
00:25:09Thank you for defending me.
00:25:12You didn't have to do that.
00:25:15Of course I did.
00:25:19I'm your fiancée.
00:25:25I never should have brought you into this.
00:25:29It's not fair to you.
00:25:33I'll pay you what I owe you, just...
00:25:37Take the money and go, Stella.
00:25:39What's going to happen to you and Emma?
00:25:41Don't worry about us.
00:25:42I do worry about you.
00:25:46I care about you both.
00:25:47I'm sorry, Stella, but...
00:25:50This contract between us is over.
00:25:56What contract?
00:26:03What contract?
00:26:09I told you what would happen if I caught you lying.
00:26:12We're not lying.
00:26:14Prove it.
00:26:19We were just talking about a prenup.
00:26:22Aston wants me to sign one to protect your family.
00:26:26I think it's admirable.
00:26:30I see.
00:26:42You've saved me twice in the last 20 minutes.
00:26:48You're not what I expected.
00:26:51What did you expect?
00:26:54I don't know.
00:26:58Not you.
00:27:03Why are you looking at me like you want to kiss me?
00:27:07Because I do want to kiss you.
00:27:15Because I do want to kiss you.
00:27:18It's all I've thought about since you put on that red dress.
00:27:27We probably shouldn't complicate this whole fake relationship thing.
00:27:32Especially since we're not actually getting married.
00:27:37You're right.
00:27:39We'll break off this engagement as soon as possible and we'll both get everything we want.
00:27:58I have some good news.
00:28:01You're getting married.
00:28:03Tomorrow.
00:28:12Congratulations.
00:28:14By this time tomorrow, you'll officially be husband and wife.
00:28:18Tomorrow?
00:28:20Unless there's some sort of problem with getting married tomorrow.
00:28:24Unless there's some sort of problem with getting married tomorrow.
00:28:27It's just...
00:28:29We're not in a rush.
00:28:31But the board is.
00:28:33A child out of wedlock is a scandal.
00:28:37And one that must be remedied immediately.
00:28:42I hope that won't be a problem.
00:28:46Married?
00:28:48That wasn't part of the deal!
00:28:50I know.
00:28:53But would it be so bad being married to me?
00:29:03No.
00:29:05It's just...
00:29:07This isn't exactly how I pictured getting married.
00:29:12This isn't exactly how I pictured getting married.
00:29:23It takes some time to think about it.
00:29:27But I need an answer tonight.
00:29:31Mom.
00:29:33How did you know when you were ready to get married?
00:29:36I don't think anybody ever is ready.
00:29:40Truly.
00:29:42I mean, your father and I certainly weren't.
00:29:45You weren't?
00:29:47No.
00:29:49We were young.
00:29:51Too young, even.
00:29:53I mean, we were young.
00:29:55Too young, even.
00:29:57But your father made me feel the way I'd never felt before.
00:30:01He made me feel loved.
00:30:03Valued.
00:30:05Whole.
00:30:07He made me feel loved.
00:30:09Valued.
00:30:11Whole.
00:30:27But it didn't even work out.
00:30:30It ended before I was born.
00:30:33Just because something doesn't last
00:30:36doesn't mean you can't enjoy it while you have it.
00:30:45Plus, your father gave me you,
00:30:49which is more than enough.
00:30:52I can't deny it.
00:30:54I want to marry Aston.
00:30:56Even if it's temporary.
00:30:58He and Emma are my family.
00:31:00Will you break my heart when it's all over?
00:31:13She just went down.
00:31:17Look, I know this isn't what you wanted.
00:31:20And you deserve to marry someone who truly cares about you.
00:31:25So...
00:31:28If you want to walk away now, I...
00:31:31I won't blame you.
00:31:34So...
00:31:36Do you have an answer for me?
00:31:41So...
00:31:43Do you have an answer for me?
00:31:45I do.
00:31:49Aston, look at me.
00:31:53I never thought I would get married as part of a contract,
00:31:56but I said I'd help you, and I'll keep my word.
00:32:04It means a lot to me.
00:32:10I have to say I'm surprised Aston is going through with this.
00:32:13I definitely thought that he would have dumped you by now.
00:32:16He probably will once he sees her in that rag.
00:32:19Once he sees her in that rag?
00:32:22It was my mother's wedding dress.
00:32:24Of course it was.
00:32:26Only a poor person would wear something like that.
00:32:28I'm surprised your Prince Charming didn't buy you something better.
00:32:31He clearly doesn't care about you.
00:32:38Aston cares about me, and I don't need a dress to prove it.
00:32:42Are you sure?
00:32:44If he really loved you,
00:32:46he would have given you his mother's ring.
00:32:51Are you sure?
00:32:53If he really loved you,
00:32:55he would have given you his mother's ring.
00:33:07Is that what he gave you, Clarissa?
00:33:10No, but that's only because I wanted something bigger.
00:33:17From Mr. Montgomery, for his fiancée.
00:33:21Oh, my God.
00:33:23It's gorgeous.
00:33:25That's the late Mrs. Montgomery's necklace.
00:33:29That's supposed to be mine.
00:33:31I am under strict orders
00:33:33to allow nobody but Miss Evans near this necklace.
00:33:37Especially you.
00:33:39No.
00:33:47No.
00:33:59You look like the future Mrs. Montgomery.
00:34:04I do.
00:34:06If only this were real.
00:34:17I know that you and Aston are lying about your relationship.
00:34:21So, if you know what's best,
00:34:23you won't go through with this wedding.
00:34:26Aston isn't who you think he is.
00:34:33So, if you know what's best,
00:34:35you won't go through with this wedding.
00:34:46Aston isn't the man you think he is.
00:34:49Whatever money you think you might be getting,
00:34:52whatever feelings you think he may have,
00:34:55it's all just one big lie.
00:34:58Your vision of the future is not the reality.
00:35:06Thank you for the advice.
00:35:09But I don't need it.
00:35:11I can handle myself.
00:35:13And nothing you say can scare me.
00:35:19Say no to Aston in front of everyone,
00:35:22or I'll make sure you regret it.
00:35:25Your choice, Stella Evans.
00:35:27Don't make the wrong one.
00:35:44You look beautiful.
00:35:46Hey.
00:35:48Is everything okay?
00:35:50Is it true?
00:35:51Is Aston just using me to get what he wants?
00:35:54Is he just using Emma?
00:35:56Dearly beloved,
00:35:58we are gathered here today
00:36:00to join this man and woman in holy matrimony.
00:36:03Marriage is powerful,
00:36:04but marriage is not.
00:36:06It's not about money.
00:36:08It's about love.
00:36:10This man and woman in holy matrimony...
00:36:14You take Aston to be your lawfully wedded husband?
00:36:26I'm sorry, I can't marry you.
00:36:35I'm sorry, I can't marry you.
00:36:41I'm sorry, I can't marry you.
00:36:50Why?
00:36:52What the hell was that about?
00:36:55Is this all fake, Aston?
00:36:57Every word you're telling me,
00:36:58every look you're giving me,
00:36:59is it all just some charade?
00:37:01Jesus.
00:37:02Is this necklace even real?
00:37:05God.
00:37:11Hey.
00:37:13Hey.
00:37:35I have meant every word I've said to you.
00:37:40None of this is a lie.
00:37:43And this necklace?
00:37:47My mother left it to me before she died.
00:37:49She said, uh,
00:37:51that I should only give it to someone I care about.
00:37:55Someone I saw a future with.
00:38:10I'm falling for you, Stella Evans.
00:38:13I have been since the moment I met you.
00:38:18I'm falling for you, Stella Evans.
00:38:21I have been since the moment we met.
00:38:31I don't know how I feel right now.
00:38:34Today's just been a bad day.
00:38:37I don't know how I feel right now.
00:38:39Today's just been a lot,
00:38:41and my mind is all over the place.
00:38:45You're right.
00:38:46This wedding's way too much, too soon.
00:38:50Stay here, and
00:38:52I'll tell everybody the wedding is off.
00:39:02Excellent.
00:39:03Every bride is an even bigger scandal than a love child.
00:39:14This must be a record, brother.
00:39:16Two fiancées down.
00:39:18At least this one made it to the altar.
00:39:22Hi, everyone.
00:39:23Sorry to keep you waiting, but
00:39:25there won't be...
00:39:26Any more interruptions.
00:39:29Who's ready for our wedding?
00:39:33Okay.
00:39:55Okay, let's try this again.
00:39:59Dearly beloved,
00:40:00we are gathered here today
00:40:02to join this man and this woman
00:40:04in holy matrimony.
00:40:06Marriage is powerful in ways you'd never expect.
00:40:09It's something that makes you feel lucky to be alive
00:40:12exactly when and where you are.
00:40:14It's choosing your partner
00:40:16at every moment of every day
00:40:19and of learning how to love
00:40:20even the darkest parts of another person.
00:40:23A true partner stays with you
00:40:25through thick and thin,
00:40:26in sickness and in health,
00:40:28for better or worse,
00:40:30for richer or poorer,
00:40:31on death do you part.
00:40:34Aston,
00:40:35do you take Stella to be your lawfully wedded wife?
00:40:38I do.
00:40:40And Stella,
00:40:41do you take this man to be your lawfully wedded husband?
00:40:53Stella,
00:40:54do you take this man to be your lawfully wedded husband?
00:41:02I do.
00:41:05Good.
00:41:06You may kiss the bride now.
00:41:21I'd like to congratulate my eldest son
00:41:23on his marriage today
00:41:25and to announce
00:41:27that he's going to be taking over
00:41:28Montgomery Enterprises
00:41:30as my successor and CEO tomorrow.
00:41:33Oh.
00:41:34This is bullshit.
00:41:35CEO should be mine.
00:41:40This is your fault, you little bitch.
00:41:42Guys, what the fuck?
00:41:45I hope that hurt.
00:41:46Oh my God.
00:41:47Not as much as this girl.
00:41:49You're my baby!
00:41:52Not as much as this girl.
00:41:54You're my baby!
00:41:55You're my baby!
00:41:59What the hell?
00:42:00You ruined my suit!
00:42:01If you touch my wife again,
00:42:02I will end you.
00:42:04Now get the hell out of my wedding.
00:42:12Baby!
00:42:13You're just gonna stand there
00:42:14and let him do that?
00:42:16You're right.
00:42:17I should have stopped him before the slap.
00:42:20Let's get out of here
00:42:21before DeVal tries to ruin our wedding day.
00:42:25Baby!
00:42:31Whoa.
00:42:33Are you okay?
00:42:55I'm fine.
00:42:56I'm fine.
00:42:57I'm fine.
00:42:58I'm fine.
00:42:59I'm fine.

00:44:21I'm fine.
00:44:22I'm fine.
00:44:23I'm fine.
00:44:24I'm fine.
00:44:37I'm fine...
00:44:39He barely got me...
00:44:43So.
00:44:46Husband?
00:44:48What should we do next?
00:44:52I have wanted you since the moment we met, Mrs. Montgomery.
00:45:13Where are you going?
00:45:24If I don't leave now, I won't be able to stop myself from tearing you out of that dress.
00:45:34Is that what I wanted you to stop?
00:45:43Since the moment I met you, you have consumed my everything.
00:45:49I can't eat, I can't sleep, I can't work without thinking about you.
00:45:56Without imagining us.
00:46:01Do you want me?
00:46:04More than anything.
00:46:12No.
00:46:36Stella, help!
00:46:43The baby's not breathing.
00:46:51Hey.
00:46:52I don't know what happened. One minute she was breathing and the next thing she...
00:46:55Oh, hi.
00:46:57Thank God.
00:46:59Hey.
00:47:01Hey, it's okay. She's okay now, see?
00:47:04Hi.
00:47:06It's okay.
00:47:13That's the most terrified I've ever been in my life.
00:47:18That's because she's your baby girl and you love her.
00:47:23What if I can't do this on my own?
00:47:26What if I can't raise an entire human being?
00:47:49You're not alone. You have me.
00:47:58It's the private investigator. He might have information on who Emma's mom is.
00:48:13Mom.
00:48:15I wanted to let you know that I went through with the wedding.
00:48:18And I brought you a picture.
00:48:23I even wore your dress.
00:48:25Stella.
00:48:28Oh, you're so beautiful.
00:48:33I'm so glad you found someone to take care of you after my God.
00:48:37I'm so glad you found someone to take care of you after my God.
00:48:44What are you talking about?
00:48:52What's this?
00:48:54A clinical trial?
00:48:56But it cost ten million dollars?
00:48:58Something like that could save my mom.
00:49:01But how am I ever going to get that much money?
00:49:08There you are.
00:49:11Everything okay?
00:49:13Yep.
00:49:15What are you doing?
00:49:20I have to take a paternity test.
00:49:30I have to take a paternity test.
00:49:33I have to take a paternity test.
00:49:39I guess we'll know soon if I'm Emma's father.
00:49:42If?
00:49:44Well, they got the footage from the office the day Emma was dropped off.
00:49:48But the woman who was there...
00:49:51I don't recognize her.
00:49:55So you just forgot someone you slept with?
00:49:59That wasn't a good time in my life.
00:50:01And I made a lot of bad decisions.
00:50:06But I've changed.
00:50:08You've changed me.
00:50:11Which is why I need you to come with me to the board meeting today.
00:50:16You keep me grounded.
00:50:21Of course I'll go with you.
00:50:28Today is about more than my retirement.
00:50:31It's about the future of Montgomery Enterprise.
00:50:34A future that will be ripped to shreds if you allow your lying son to become CEO.
00:50:42What are you talking about?
00:50:46You.
00:50:48You're not the mother of his child.
00:50:53You're not the mother of his child.
00:50:56You're lying.
00:50:58They're both lying to all of you.
00:51:02Stella Evans.
00:51:06Ten o'clock interview with Ashton Montgomery for the executive assistant position.
00:51:13Looks like he offered a different job to her altogether.
00:51:17This man would go so far as to marry a complete stranger in order to become your CEO.
00:51:24I don't know how much he's paying you, but it must be a lot.
00:51:27If this is true, son, you're an embarrassment to this family and this company.
00:51:34The board can't proceed with a vote.
00:51:40It's true.
00:51:42Stella was there at the interview that day.
00:51:44Me.
00:51:46To see if I was up for the challenge to raising our daughter.
00:51:49But this isn't about my personal life.
00:51:52This is about what's best for Montgomery Enterprises going into the future.
00:51:54And since I've become COO, I have more than doubled our profits.
00:51:58And if that's not enough for you, then I don't know what is.
00:52:04It doesn't matter what you say.
00:52:06Mom already promised me the position of CEO would be mine.
00:52:10Enough.
00:52:13We will vote now.
00:52:16Is there a vote for Clive?
00:52:22And for Ashton Montgomery?
00:52:24For Ashton?
00:52:33It's a tie.
00:52:35So it all comes down to my father.
00:52:39And I have decided.
00:52:44The new CEO of Montgomery Enterprises is...
00:52:50The new CEO of Montgomery Enterprises is...
00:52:57Ashton Montgomery.
00:53:03What about me?
00:53:05I've looked at the financials.
00:53:07You've spent more time at the country club than in the boardroom.
00:53:11It's not my fault their Cobb salads are excellent.
00:53:15And the boardroom is boring.
00:53:18And the boardroom is boring.
00:53:26Congratulations Ashton.
00:53:28The new CEO of Montgomery Enterprises.
00:53:31But make me doubt anything else and I'll rip everything away from you two without hesitation.
00:53:48So what's your first act as CEO?
00:53:52I violate every page of the HR handbook.
00:53:55It's a good thing you never gave me that job.
00:54:02I need you.
00:54:07We can't. Somebody could walk in.
00:54:09So?
00:54:10So? Remember what your dad said?
00:54:12We can't afford another scandal.
00:54:13Remember what your dad said?
00:54:15We can't afford another scandal.
00:54:22Ashton.
00:54:24The board would like to see you.
00:54:26To go over some financials.
00:54:28Of course.
00:54:30Knock knock.
00:54:34Clarissa if you're here to bully me I am not in the mood.
00:54:37That's not why I'm here.
00:54:39I'm here as a courtesy.
00:54:41You deserve the truth and clearly Ashton isn't going to give it to you.
00:54:49I'm not here to bully you.
00:54:51I'm here as a courtesy.
00:54:53You deserve the truth and clearly Ashton isn't going to give it to you.
00:54:59This baby isn't Clive's.
00:55:02It's Ashton's.
00:55:11What the hell are you talking about? That baby cannot be Ashton's.
00:55:14Well we clearly couldn't tell you until the ruse was over.
00:55:17Until he became CEO.
00:55:19But now that it's all over and Ashton got what he wanted.
00:55:23We don't need you anymore.
00:55:27He doesn't need you anymore.
00:55:29I don't believe you.
00:55:57I don't believe you.
00:55:59Believe Ashton then.
00:56:01Go ahead.
00:56:03Open that desk drawer.
00:56:15Oh my god.
00:56:17He signed the divorce papers.
00:56:19Clarissa's telling the truth.
00:56:29You can go now.
00:56:41Sweet Emma.
00:56:45I'm going to miss you so much.
00:56:48What's going on?
00:56:50I'm saying goodbye to Emma and then I'm out of here.
00:56:53Just like you want me to be.
00:57:00Stella why are you packing?
00:57:02Here. I signed them. You don't have to worry about me anymore.
00:57:05What are you talking about?
00:57:07Come on Ashton. You used me to get everything you wanted.
00:57:10I was a fool to think we could ever be together.
00:57:12That we could ever have a family together.
00:57:14Oh and by the way.
00:57:16Congratulations on the baby.
00:57:18I hope you and Clarissa are really happy together.
00:57:21Wait.
00:57:23Wait.
00:57:28Please.
00:57:30Let me explain.
00:57:35What could you possibly have to say to me?
00:57:40There is nothing and will never be anything between me and Clarissa ever again.
00:57:45I'm not even the father of her child.
00:57:47And these.
00:57:49I have these drawn up the day I was born.
00:57:50And these.
00:57:52I have these drawn up the day I met you before.
00:57:54I knew this could be anything more than a contract.
00:57:56And this. Just take it.
00:58:00Please just take everything out.
00:58:02All I want is you and Emma.
00:58:04I could take or leave anything else.
00:58:06You don't mean that.
00:58:08Of course I mean it.
00:58:10I have meant every word I have said to you.
00:58:13I'm in Stella. I'm all in.
00:58:16Are you?
00:58:21I'm in Stella. I'm all in.
00:58:24Are you?
00:58:29Yeah. I'm all in.
00:58:36Yes.
00:58:45The paternity results are in.
00:58:50I'm not Emma's father.
00:59:01The paternity results are in.
00:59:05I'm not Emma's father.
00:59:14I can't believe I'm not her father.
00:59:16I can't believe I'm not her father.
00:59:20If she doesn't belong to me, then
00:59:23why would that woman have shown up at my office
00:59:25and made me believe she was mine?
00:59:32I can't tell you why this is happening, Aston.
00:59:35But Emma's lucky to have you as a dad.
00:59:39Biological or not.
00:59:42We need to find the truth.
00:59:47Dahlia's behind it all.
00:59:54I'm not telling you anything.
00:59:56This isn't a game, Dahlia.
00:59:58She's a child.
00:59:59Where did Emma come from?
01:00:01Step down as CEO, and I'll tell you.
01:00:07Step down as CEO, and I'll tell you.
01:00:10Are you kidding me?
01:00:12This is way bigger than a CEO position.
01:00:14This is way bigger than a CEO position.
01:00:16This is a child's life you're messing with.
01:00:18Shut up, you little trill.
01:00:21If you hadn't come along pretending to be her mother,
01:00:24the scandal would have proceeded as planned,
01:00:27and that little child would be back at the orphanage
01:00:30right where she belonged.
01:00:32Orphanage?
01:00:34That's right.
01:00:36The baby's trash, just like you.
01:00:43Ah!
01:00:46Ah!
01:00:51My hair!
01:00:59You better get control of your little wife!
01:01:01Or nothing!
01:01:03You will not speak upon my wife or my family that way.
01:01:06Get out.
01:01:17Call every orphanage in the city
01:01:19until you find one that's missing a baby.
01:01:31It's okay.
01:01:33It's okay, we're gonna figure this out.
01:01:37Mama.
01:01:39Oh my God, did she just call me Mama?
01:01:41She's yours if you want her to be.
01:01:47I want to be, but
01:01:49until we figure out what's going on,
01:01:51I can't get attached.
01:01:54Mama.
01:01:56I understand.
01:01:58Mama.
01:02:00Mr. Montgomery!
01:02:02Mr. Montgomery!
01:02:04Mr. Montgomery!
01:02:06What can you say about the recent allegations
01:02:08that Miss Evans is not the mother of your son's child?
01:02:12Mr. Montgomery!
01:02:14You can't ignore us, Mr. Montgomery!
01:02:17Mr. Montgomery!
01:02:20What's going on?
01:02:22The press is having a field day out here.
01:02:24I told you to.
01:02:26No more scandals!
01:02:28What are you talking about?
01:02:30I went out on a limb for you, son.
01:02:32I trusted you.
01:02:34And this has been a lie the whole time?
01:02:37You say she's the mother of your child?
01:02:39Prove it.
01:02:41Or I'll expect you to step down as CEO tomorrow morning.
01:02:46How do we prove it?
01:02:49Simple.
01:02:51Take a maternity test.
01:02:58How do we prove it?
01:03:01Simple.
01:03:03Take a maternity test.
01:03:04Take a maternity test.
01:03:12Mr. Montgomery!
01:03:14Mr. Montgomery!
01:03:16Mr. Montgomery!
01:03:18Mr. Montgomery!
01:03:20Okay.
01:03:22Aston.
01:03:24If I take a maternity test,
01:03:26they're gonna know that Emma's not mine
01:03:28and then we may lose her.
01:03:30Forever.
01:03:32No.
01:03:35I should have never lied in the first place.
01:03:44Mom!
01:03:46Mom!
01:03:50My mom is dying!
01:03:57Her head is still warm.
01:04:00It's okay.
01:04:04It's okay.
01:04:10My heart was racing.
01:04:12I was so scared.
01:04:15It's okay.
01:04:19It's okay.
01:04:21It's all gonna be okay.
01:04:35My mom's getting worse.
01:04:39She needs this experimental treatment,
01:04:42but we can't afford it, so...
01:04:45Why didn't you tell me?
01:04:49I didn't want to be a burden to you.
01:04:51You can never be a burden.
01:04:54How much does the treatment cost?
01:05:01Ten million dollars.
01:05:04I'll pay it.
01:05:06Every penny.
01:05:14I'll pay it.
01:05:15Every penny.
01:05:18Aston, I...
01:05:19Like I said,
01:05:21money doesn't matter.
01:05:22I would do anything for you,
01:05:23anything for our family.
01:05:30You have no idea what this means to me.
01:05:41How do you always know just what to say
01:05:43to make me feel better?
01:05:45Because I know you.
01:05:47I know what you want.
01:05:48I know what you need.
01:05:50That's what happens to someone when you...
01:05:55When you...
01:05:57When you what?
01:06:00When you love someone.
01:06:01When you love someone.
01:06:03And I love you,
01:06:05Stella Evans.
01:06:12And I love you,
01:06:14Stella Evans.
01:06:22You love me?
01:06:25I do.
01:06:28I can't believe it's taken me so long to say it.
01:06:31I know.
01:06:37Please tell me you feel the same.
01:06:47I don't know what I'm feeling.
01:06:50It's all just...
01:06:51It's too much.
01:06:55I understand.
01:07:02Hi, I'd like to pay a bill for Mary Evans.
01:07:07It has?
01:07:10By who?
01:07:14I see.
01:07:32A year ago,
01:07:34I gave up my baby girl.
01:07:38I had no choice,
01:07:39and it broke my heart.
01:07:41The chances are almost impossible,
01:07:43but I have to know.
01:07:45Could Emma be my daughter?
01:08:02Hello?
01:08:04I'd like to schedule a maternity test.
01:08:17Hey, Stella, do you...
01:08:20Everything okay?
01:08:21Fine.
01:08:28You seem...
01:08:29off.
01:08:32I know.
01:08:35I'm just stressed.
01:08:39I just can't stop thinking about Emma's mother,
01:08:41and how our lives could come crashing down
01:08:44over some maternity test.
01:08:46Then don't take it.
01:08:48What?
01:08:50No, I can't ask you to do that.
01:08:51That's not fair to you.
01:08:54Don't worry about what's fair to...
01:08:56It's all I'm worried about.
01:08:59You mean more to me than this CEO position.
01:09:02He's trying to help, but...
01:09:04if Emma's somehow mine,
01:09:06I can save Aston's job and his reputation.
01:09:10Just...
01:09:11don't do anything rash, okay?
01:09:14We still have until tomorrow to figure it out.
01:09:20I need to ask.
01:09:23Does the name Andrew Beaumont mean anything to you?
01:09:27No.
01:09:29Should it?
01:09:31Well...
01:09:33he paid for your mother's treatment.
01:09:35All...
01:09:36ten million.
01:09:50Mom?
01:09:52Who's Andrew Beaumont?
01:09:56How...
01:09:58How do you know about him?
01:10:01He paid for your treatment.
01:10:04Who is he?
01:10:09Mom?
01:10:11Mom?
01:10:12Mom!
01:10:13Someone call a doctor!
01:10:15Mom!
01:10:27Mom?
01:10:32I spoke with the doctors.
01:10:37She's been put in a medically induced coma until
01:10:39the swelling in her brain subsides.
01:10:43It's all my fault if I wouldn't have pushed her.
01:10:46No, Estella.
01:10:47It is not your fault.
01:10:51I know.
01:10:52I know.
01:10:53And I know she's sick.
01:10:54I just wish there was something I could do.
01:10:56She's with the doctors now.
01:10:58She's getting the treatment she needs.
01:11:01It'll all be fine.
01:11:04No matter how much you keep blaming yourself.
01:11:07I'll say it again.
01:11:10It's not your fault.
01:11:24It's not your fault.
01:11:40Okay, Emma.
01:11:42Time to learn the truth.
01:11:51In breaking news,
01:11:52CEO Aston Montgomery
01:11:53has called a last minute press conference
01:11:55to address the future of Montgomery Enterprises.
01:11:58Reporters have it on good authority
01:12:00that he is prepared to step down as CEO,
01:12:02handing the company over to his half-brother,
01:12:05Clive Montgomery,
01:12:06in the wake of a paternity scandal.
01:12:23Oh, my God.
01:12:26I can save him.
01:12:30Do you have anything to say about this?
01:12:32Ma'am, how do you answer the allegation?
01:12:34What do you say about these accusations?
01:12:36Sir, can you please tell her?
01:12:37Mr. Montgomery,
01:12:38you do understand that not forcing your wife
01:12:41to take a maternity test
01:12:42is an admission of guilt, right?
01:12:44Which means you've been lying.
01:12:46To everyone.
01:12:48Wait!
01:12:49Wait!
01:12:50Wait!
01:12:51Wait!
01:12:52We're not lying.
01:12:54I took the test.
01:12:56I have the results right here.
01:13:02I have the results right here.
01:13:04Over here, ma'am.
01:13:07Hey!
01:13:08You know how much I'm willing to pay for those?
01:13:10Not enough.
01:13:11Trust me.
01:13:13Over here, ma'am.
01:13:14Ma'am, come on.
01:13:15Don't be childish, ma'am.
01:13:16Come on, ma'am.
01:13:17What do you have to give us a quote?
01:13:20You took the maternity test?
01:13:22Why?
01:13:23Aston, there's something I need to tell you.
01:13:25Show us the results, sweetheart.
01:13:26Prove your husband's not lying.
01:13:33I don't owe anyone proof.
01:13:35Believe me or don't.
01:13:36But I am Emma's mother.
01:13:39I believe you.
01:13:40Don't even think about it, Dahlia.
01:13:50This is so sweet.
01:13:54If only it mattered.
01:13:57You're too late, Stella.
01:13:59Aston already stepped down.
01:14:09You already stepped down?
01:14:11Yes.
01:14:12To protect you.
01:14:13To protect Emma.
01:14:14Aston, you were fine.
01:14:15All you've ever wanted to do is be safe.
01:14:17To be a great husband to you and a great father to Emma.
01:14:21That's all that matters to me.
01:14:23We can figure out the rest.
01:14:25It looks like you're working for me now, brother.
01:14:29I own the company now.
01:14:31Which means I owe you.
01:14:36Not quite.
01:14:39I just received an offer from Montgomery Enterprises.
01:14:42One that I couldn't refuse.
01:14:45Meet our buyer.
01:14:48Andrew Beaumont.
01:14:55Stella's father.
01:15:02Stella.
01:15:04You look just like your mother.
01:15:09This is ridiculous.
01:15:11You're trying to tell me that Stella's related to a billionaire?
01:15:15Ha!
01:15:16She's nothing but a piece of trash.
01:15:18Don't speak about my daughter that way.
01:15:21Your daughter?
01:15:23How dare you call me that?
01:15:25You left Mom and I.
01:15:27No.
01:15:28Stella, I never left you.
01:15:31Your mother, she kicked me out.
01:15:35Because I wasn't the husband or the father that I needed to be.
01:15:38But I'm here now.
01:15:41To make it up to you.
01:15:43This company belongs to me.
01:15:45Not this low class peasant bitch.
01:15:49Ow! My baby!
01:15:51Damn, that felt good.
01:15:54Get out of my office or I'll have you arrested for assault.
01:15:58Actually, the office belongs to my daughter now.
01:16:03As does the company.
01:16:05What?
01:16:11I'm the CEO of Montgomery Enterprises?
01:16:20I'm the CEO of Montgomery Enterprises?
01:16:27Oh yes.
01:16:29Which means you get to decide how we get rid of Clive.
01:16:33You're fired.
01:16:35Effective immediately.
01:16:37You can't do that.
01:16:39Montgomery Enterprises belongs to her.
01:16:42She can do whatever she wants.
01:16:49This can't be happening.
01:16:53I planned everything perfectly.
01:16:56I'm the CEO of Montgomery Enterprises.
01:17:00I planned everything perfectly.
01:17:04That little orphan would have made the perfect scandal if not for Stella interfering.
01:17:10And you!
01:17:12You were supposed to convince that little bitch that you were pregnant with Aston's baby.
01:17:17But no!
01:17:18You failed and fucked us all.
01:17:22I didn't.
01:17:25Clive, Clarissa, get the hell out of my office.
01:17:28You too, Dahlia.
01:17:30Get out!
01:17:31You can't kick me out.
01:17:33I'm Robert's wife.
01:17:35Not anymore.
01:17:37I want a divorce.
01:17:41What?
01:17:42This is not...
01:17:55I always thought she looked just like you when she was sleeping.
01:18:02I never thought I'd see her again.
01:18:07I never wanted to give her up, but...
01:18:10when Mom got sick and...
01:18:13the medical bills, I just...
01:18:16I knew we couldn't afford it.
01:18:20It's all in the past.
01:18:24But I want to talk about our future.
01:18:30How would you feel about one more?
01:18:39This house is pretty big.
01:18:42Why stop at one?
01:18:44I like the way you think.
01:18:54I love you.
01:19:09So...
01:19:11what's your first order of business as CEO?
01:19:15Well, since I've already violated the employee handbook...
01:19:19Twice.
01:19:24I was thinking we could talk business.
01:19:28No one knows more about Montgomery Enterprises than you.
01:19:35I was hoping you might show me the ropes.
01:19:39I'd be happy to.
01:19:45Let's violate the handbook one more time.
01:19:55I'm sorry.
01:19:57I'm sorry.
01:19:59I'm sorry.
01:20:01I'm sorry.
01:20:03I'm sorry.
01:20:05I'm sorry.
01:20:07I'm sorry.
01:20:09I'm sorry.
01:20:11I'm sorry.
01:20:13I'm sorry.
01:20:15I'm sorry.
01:20:17I'm sorry.
01:20:19I'm sorry.
01:20:21I'm sorry.
01:20:23I'm sorry.
01:20:25I'm sorry.
01:20:27I'm sorry.
01:20:29I'm sorry.
01:20:40I'm pregnant.
01:20:43I'm pregnant.
01:20:52Hey.
01:20:54Your mother and I were just catching up.
01:20:59I still can't believe this.
01:21:03Forgive me for not telling you about your father sooner.
01:21:07When I got sick, I decided to write him.
01:21:10Forgiving him.
01:21:14I never thought you would.
01:21:18And...
01:21:21I hope you can forgive me too.
01:21:30You've been missing from my life for years.
01:21:33It's going to take more than money to earn my forgiveness.
01:21:38I understand.
01:21:40And I'd really like to get to know you better.
01:21:44And my grandbaby.
01:21:50Which one?
01:21:58Stella!
01:22:04Aston, your assistant called and said it was an emergency.
01:22:08Stella Evans?
01:22:11Yes.
01:22:16Come with me.
01:22:27The last time I heard those words, I got roped into a fake marriage.
01:22:32Well, this time, I'm hoping you'll say yes to a real one.
01:22:38Yes.
01:22:49Aston, is that your mother's ring?
01:22:51It is.
01:22:53And you're the only person who has ever been worthy of it.
01:22:59Stella Evans, ever since you stepped into my office, you have changed the course of my life.
01:23:03You have given me a beautiful child.
01:23:07I have children.
01:23:10I'm pregnant.
01:23:16I want forever with you.
01:23:18No deals, no schemes.
01:23:21Just us.
01:23:24Will you marry me?
01:23:33I can't.
01:23:38It's just, we've done this whole thing backwards.
01:23:41I want us to take our time.
01:23:44Okay.
01:23:46I can be patient.
