Short filmTranscript
00:00:00I'm pregnant, you're going to be a father.
00:00:05What's she doing here?
00:00:07What do you think?
00:00:08No need to hide anymore.
00:00:10I'm leaving you.
00:00:11For Catherine.
00:00:13Unlike you, I'm young and rich.
00:00:15I can give Bradley what he deserves.
00:00:17Catherine hired me to be vice president of her family's hospital.
00:00:20She's also way better in bed.
00:00:23What's that?
00:00:25She's pregnant?
00:00:27What?
00:00:29She must be faking it to trap you.
00:00:32No one's faking it.
00:00:33You're so desperate.
00:00:35Give it back! Stop!
00:00:36No, I'm not.
00:00:37Give it back!
00:00:38No!
00:00:54Bradley.
00:01:10What happened?
00:01:12The baby.
00:01:13Is the baby okay?
00:01:18I'm so sorry.
00:01:21We've lost the baby.
00:01:25I'm so sorry.
00:01:31We're right here, sweetheart.
00:01:32We're right here.
00:01:42I won't let Bradley and that woman get away with this.
00:01:47I'm ready to come back, Dad.
00:01:49Mom, revenge won't heal the heart.
00:01:51This isn't about revenge.
00:01:52This is about holding them accountable.
00:01:54Are you sure you're ready for this?
00:01:56I've been preparing for years, Mom.
00:01:59Okay.
00:02:00But there is a condition.
00:02:07I have an important announcement.
00:02:09My daughter, Mia Gerber, will be the new CEO of Gerber Corporation.
00:02:13Is Mia ready for such a big role?
00:02:15I've been concealing my identity to go undercover within the industry.
00:02:19I've learned our competitors from the inside.
00:02:22Trust me.
00:02:24I'm more than ready.
00:02:27Furthermore, Mia will marry Joshua Lane from Lane Holdings.
00:02:34Mia will marry Joshua Lane from Lane Holdings.
00:02:40There is a condition.
00:02:41You're going to have to marry Joshua Lane, the heir of Lane Holdings.
00:02:46Mia's never even met this guy before.
00:02:48It's a strategic alliance, Noah.
00:02:53It's what's best for our families and the company.
00:02:56I'll do it.
00:03:00I'll marry Joshua Lane if that's what it takes.
00:03:04And this alliance will strengthen our company and secure our future.
00:03:11Joshua Lane
00:03:18Isn't Joshua Lane famous for being cold and ruffles?
00:03:22That's what I heard.
00:03:24I think it'll be good for the company.
00:03:25I don't think it'll be good for the new CEO.
00:03:32Joshua Lane
00:03:41Joshua Lane
00:03:48Joshua, I was hoping we could...
00:03:49Not interested. Get lost.
00:03:55Man, you are brutal. That's the fifth girl you've turned down tonight.
00:04:00Hey, I heard you're getting hitched to Mia Gerber.
00:04:02Why didn't you turn her down?
00:04:03This marriage is what my parents want.
00:04:05Couldn't care less about her.
00:04:07Oh, come on. She's the heiress to the Gerber Corporation.
00:04:09There must be some perks to her.
00:04:11Perks are not.
00:04:12She'll learn quickly that I'm not one to be messed with.
00:04:15Gonna give her a hard time, huh?
00:04:17Let's just say that she's got something coming.
00:04:30Do you, Joshua Lane, take Mia Gerber for your lawfully wedded wife?
00:04:35I do.
00:04:37And you, Mia Gerber, do you take Joshua Lane for your lawfully wedded husband?
00:04:43I do.
00:04:45Rings?
00:04:54You may now kiss the bride.
00:05:07Let's get one thing straight, Mia.
00:05:09This marriage is a show for our family and the rest of the world.
00:05:13Don't expect any affection from me.
00:05:15Understood. And vice versa.
00:05:19My parents want to set up a dinner with us. My assistant will set it up.
00:05:23She can coordinate schedules with my assistant.
00:05:25Done.
00:05:34I'm sorry.
00:05:35It's okay.
00:05:36I'm sorry.
00:05:37I'm sorry.
00:05:38I'm sorry.
00:05:39I'm sorry.
00:05:40I'm sorry.
00:05:41I'm sorry.
00:05:42I'm sorry.
00:05:43I'm sorry.
00:05:44I'm sorry.
00:05:45I'm sorry.
00:05:46I'm sorry.
00:05:47I'm sorry.
00:06:03Joshua has always been so distant with people.
00:06:08Unlike Alex here, who's so popular and charismatic.
00:06:13You should see all the women that can't stop chasing.
00:06:16Well, at least I don't have to worry if Alex can give me a grandson.
00:06:21But I wonder, Joshua, if you can even warm up enough to give me a child.
00:06:28We need an heir after all.
00:06:29Eleanor, that's enough.
00:06:32I'm just saying, perhaps Alex is a better fit to lead Lane Hogan's.
00:06:38Quite the contrary.
00:06:40Actually, Joshua's very passionate.
00:06:43Especially in the bedroom.
00:06:45No doubt that you'll have that heir soon.
00:06:54For your information, passion is not in my DNA.
00:06:58Nor does it align with my personal brand.
00:07:02But still, thank you for standing up for me.
00:07:06I just didn't appreciate your stepmom's attitude.
00:07:16Get the campaign ready.
00:07:17I want that jerk out ASAP.
00:07:24Noah, hey.
00:07:25I need a favor.
00:07:31You're right.
00:07:32Alex and Eleanor Lane are behind a smear campaign against Joshua.
00:07:35Blue Diamond PR is already involved.
00:07:38What agency are we using?
00:07:40We're still deciding. Bids are open for this year's contract.
00:07:44Perfect. I have a plan.
00:07:50I'm offering the Gerber Corporation's annual PR budget.
00:07:53It's one of the largest in the industry.
00:07:55That's an enticing offer, Ms. Gerber.
00:07:58What do you ask of me in return?
00:08:00I need you to withdraw from any campaign against Joshua Lane.
00:08:04I don't mind. I'll cover the cancellation fee.
00:08:12You have a deal.
00:08:13The Gerber Corporation account is too good to pass up.
00:08:17There's a little more.
00:08:19I need you to spread the word.
00:08:21Any PR firm that goes against Joshua Lane
00:08:24will be blacklisted.
00:08:26Any firm that goes against Joshua Lane
00:08:28will be blacklisted from the Gerber Corporation and our allies.
00:08:31You got it.
00:08:32No one in this industry would be stupid enough
00:08:35to fight against the Gerber Corporation.
00:08:38Wonderful.
00:08:40Looking forward to a fruitful partnership.
00:08:48I have evidence of Alex's scheme against you.
00:08:52But don't worry, I've already taken care of it.
00:08:56I always knew Eleanor and Alex would be after my position.
00:08:58I just didn't expect Alex to be this bold.
00:09:02How do you know about this?
00:09:03Alex struck me as opportunistic.
00:09:05A smear campaign is the easiest way to sway the shareholder's opinion.
00:09:08Eleanor's background in PR made this move predictable.
00:09:12You're more perceptive than I thought.
00:09:15Why are you helping me?
00:09:19Our family's alliance is crucial.
00:09:21Protecting you means protecting the Gerber Corporation.
00:09:24It's all business.
00:09:28Business, right.
00:09:30Well, in that case, I should help you with your beef
00:09:32with Katherine and Bradley, right?
00:09:36How did you know about that?
00:09:38You didn't expect me to enter into the marriage
00:09:40without doing background checks.
00:09:42I just don't get what the big deal about your ex is.
00:09:45I mean, he cheated on you.
00:09:47So what?
00:09:50She must be faking it to trap you.
00:09:53Trap you?
00:09:56How dare you?
00:09:58You had no right to dig into my past like that.
00:10:02I can take care of myself.
00:10:07What just happened?
00:10:12To your new position as Senior VP.
00:10:17And it's all thanks to my help, of course.
00:10:19Absolutely. You're my lucky charm, honey.
00:10:24Imagine if I'd stayed with Mia.
00:10:26Poor and powerless. That's all she ever was.
00:10:29She's a joke.
00:10:31A stepping stone at best.
00:10:33With you by my side, we are unstoppable.
00:10:46Katherine's hospital is resisting our acquisition.
00:10:49Bradley has made a decision.
00:10:52Bradley, as the new Senior VP, is leading the pushback.
00:10:56Do they know I'm the CEO yet?
00:10:57No, as per your request.
00:10:59Perfect. Keep at it.
00:11:06Now how do I pull this off?
00:11:17There are gaps in Mia's medical record right after her breakup.
00:11:21These are from the Gerber Corporation's own hospital.
00:11:24Only someone higher up from within can access it.
00:11:33I want to know what happened to Mia during that gap, after the breakup.
00:11:37Even if I know, why would I tell you?
00:11:39Mia helped me.
00:11:40But unless I understand that part of the puzzle, I won't be able to return her favor.
00:11:45Do you care for her?
00:11:48You don't dislike her?
00:11:50Now, Mia deserves someone who truly loves her. Not you.
00:11:55She's a grown woman. She knows what she wants.
00:11:58Nobody gets to tell her what she deserves. Especially not you.
00:12:09You can choose not to share the information, but you won't be helping her.
00:12:15Your choice.
00:12:19Alright, look.
00:12:21If you have to know, unfortunately,
00:12:25Mia had a miscarriage because of an accident involving Bradley and Catherine.
00:12:49How are you feeling?
00:12:53It's none of your business.
00:12:55Not that you would know what that means.
00:12:58I'm sorry for overstepping and being insensitive.
00:13:01I learned about your miscarriage. I had no idea.
00:13:05You didn't know?
00:13:07That doesn't excuse my behavior.
00:13:09I apologize.
00:13:11I may have overreacted.
00:13:13You were hurting. That's understandable.
00:13:15So you're not a robot, like everyone says you are?
00:13:18Of course I'm not. Who says that?
00:13:21Everyone. Your family, your friends, your co-workers, enemies.
00:13:27I even heard the maids joking about it the other day.
00:13:30Bar them all.
00:13:31No, no. No, it's okay.
00:13:35They're allowed to joke. They've been doing a wonderful job.
00:13:38Besides, I think you should talk like this.
00:13:42It suits you.
00:13:43It suits you.
00:13:45It's not funny.
00:13:49It's late.
00:13:52I'm going to bed.
00:13:55Okay.
00:13:57Good night.
00:14:04Talk like this.
00:14:14Go ahead with the plan. Shorten the stock of Catherine's company.
00:14:18I want to see them bleed.
00:14:29Mia, you need to see this.
00:14:31The stock of Catherine's hospital has been shortened dramatically.
00:14:34They're on the verge of bankruptcy.
00:14:36Just a week? How is this possible?
00:14:38Seems like a coordinated operation.
00:14:40Just a week? How is this possible?
00:14:42Seems like a coordinated attack.
00:14:44Someone powerful is behind this.
00:14:49Joshua.
00:14:55Did you short Catherine's stock?
00:14:57Yes, I did.
00:14:58Why?
00:15:00Strictly for business.
00:15:01To protect our family's alliances.
00:15:03Your enemies are my enemies now.
00:15:05Thank you, Joshua.
00:15:06I just did what's necessary. Just like you would do.
00:15:09To pay a little visit to Bradley and Catherine.
00:15:19Bradley, what are we going to do? They're taking everything.
00:15:23I can't believe this is happening.
00:15:26As of now, this hospital is under Gerber Corporation's control.
00:15:30Yes, the Gerber Corporation. As in my family's company.
00:15:33Mia Gerber? I thought you were Mia Whitlock.
00:15:36Whitlock was just a name I used to conceal my identity.
00:15:39You betrayed and hurt my wife. Now you're facing the consequences.
00:15:43I've resigned. You can't touch me.
00:15:45Resignation or not, Bradley, your career is over.
00:15:48I've seen to it that everyone in this industry won't touch you after what you've done.
00:15:53Mia, you know that I never meant to hurt you.
00:15:57This hospital is all that I have left. Please.
00:16:01That day that I fell, you stood there and watched.
00:16:05You made your decision then.
00:16:07Mia, can we talk? I know I hurt you deeply.
00:16:10I just want to apologize. To make things right.
00:16:14Mia, I'm truly sorry. About everything.
00:16:17I dreamt about you and the baby every day.
00:16:20I just couldn't bring myself to tell you this after the accident.
00:16:23Because I felt so ashamed of myself.
00:16:25Your apology can't undo what's been done, Bradley.
00:16:28I know. I'm sorry.
00:16:30I'm sorry for everything.
00:16:32I'm sorry for everything.
00:16:34I'm sorry for everything.
00:16:36I'm sorry for everything.
00:16:38I'm sorry for everything.
00:16:40I'm sorry for everything.
00:16:42Bradley.
00:16:43I know. I just...
00:16:45I need you to know that I will always care about you. Deeply.
00:17:02You're really like they say.
00:17:04Tall.
00:17:05Handsome.
00:17:06Powerful.
00:17:13You know I can make you a very happy man.
00:17:20I do not engage with women who have no shame.
00:17:24Hands off me.
00:17:30Catherine manipulated me.
00:17:32But now I realize she's nothing compared to you.
00:17:34We could start over.
00:17:36With your family's resources, I could help you grow the business.
00:17:39We could be parents again.
00:17:41Give us a chance.
00:17:43You know, if I wasn't 100% sure before, I am now.
00:17:48You're a piece of human trash.
00:17:51You're right. I'm dirty.
00:17:53But think about all the good memories we have.
00:17:55Think about more to come.
00:17:56Just...
00:17:57Let go.
00:17:58Mia, don't. I'm serious. Don't.
00:17:59Bradley.
00:18:00Get the fuck out of here.
00:18:04Get the fuck out of here.
00:18:11I should have intervened before Bradley could touch you.
00:18:13It's fine, Joshua.
00:18:15Thank you for stepping in.
00:18:17Thank you for...
00:18:20Everything.
00:18:23Yeah, I follow through with all my business plans.
00:18:26Right. Yeah.
00:18:28The business plan.
00:18:30You know, you call me your wife for the first time.
00:18:34Don't look into it too much.
00:18:36Let's go.
00:18:37Actually, um...
00:18:39You know what?
00:18:40Now that all the revenge is done,
00:18:42I think I want to take some time alone.
00:18:44To...
00:18:46Figure out my feelings.
00:18:48I understand.
00:18:54They've destroyed everything.
00:18:56We can't let them get away with this.
00:19:01What if we take Mia?
00:19:05A ransom would help us, but hurt Mia.
00:19:08Yes.
00:19:10Abducting Mia Gerber.
00:19:12Let's see how Joshua Lane reacts then.
00:19:15But how will we get to Mia?
00:19:17I know that she always goes to this one spot alone.
00:19:20From what I know about her,
00:19:22she must be there right now.
00:19:39Oh!
00:19:41Ah!
00:19:43Ah!
00:20:09Hey!
00:20:12Hey!
00:20:15Help!
00:20:38Thought you could get rid of us, Mia?
00:20:42You and Joshua will regret ever crossing us.
00:20:47Don't bring him into this, you bitch!
00:21:04That's for talking back to me.
00:21:08Look at you.
00:21:10Just as pathetic as the day you fell.
00:21:13Of course I could have saved you.
00:21:15But why would I?
00:21:17You and your baby are worth nothing.
00:21:26Joshua Lane?
00:21:28Listen.
00:21:29We have Mia Gerber.
00:21:31You want her back?
00:21:32Get ready with a hefty ransom.
00:21:34I'll pay the ransom.
00:21:36But listen to me clearly.
00:21:38I will hunt you down and you'll wish you'd never crossed me.
00:21:48Based on the footage from Mia's car camera,
00:21:50it seems Bradley and Catherine are behind this.
00:21:53These are the possible locations where Mia could be.
00:21:58This one.
00:22:07Mia.
00:22:11I got you.
00:22:15Let's get you out of here.
00:22:36No!
00:22:57Joshua, Joshua, stop!
00:22:59It's not worth it.
00:23:06It's not worth it.
00:23:32Made you some soup.
00:23:40It's very unique.
00:23:43What is this?
00:23:45My mom's recipe.
00:23:47Before she passed away she used to make it for me when I was sick.
00:23:50Thought it might comfort you.
00:23:52Must have made it wrong.
00:23:54It's wonderful.
00:23:56I don't know how to thank you enough.
00:23:58It's nothing.
00:24:00I just did what I had to do.
00:24:04Joshua,
00:24:06is this still just a marriage of convenience for you?
00:24:11Excuse me, Mr. and Mrs. Lane.
00:24:13A guest has arrived.
00:24:14Her name is Susie Harper.
00:24:16Susie's back?
00:24:25Oh, I've missed you so much.
00:24:29Susie, it's been ages.
00:24:32When's the last time we saw each other?
00:24:34Four years ago, before I went abroad.
00:24:37It's been too long.
00:24:39Welcome back, Sus.
00:24:41I came back just for you.
00:24:43Oh, there's so much...
00:24:45Hey.
00:24:47Susie, this is my wife, Mia.
00:24:50Mia, this is Susie, an old friend of mine.
00:24:54So...
00:24:56You're the one Joshua had to marry.
00:24:58No, Susie, that's enough.
00:25:01Joshua and I have a special bond, you know?
00:25:05We've been friends since, like, forever.
00:25:08He means a lot to me.
00:25:10I want him to be happy.
00:25:12I think we all want that.
00:25:14Do you?
00:25:16Joshua and I talk often over the phone.
00:25:18He confides in me.
00:25:20I'm one of the few he truly trusts.
00:25:22He mentioned he was quite unhappy
00:25:24about the marriage.
00:25:26Right.
00:25:28Well, it seems like you two have a lot to catch up on,
00:25:30so I'll leave you to it.
00:25:38Susie, why would you say those things?
00:25:41I told you I had doubts before the wedding,
00:25:43not since then.
00:25:45Joshua, you're clearly unhappy.
00:25:47I was just speaking up for you.
00:25:49I don't need you to look out for me.
00:25:51I'm sorry.
00:25:53I just...
00:25:55I was trying to help,
00:25:57since you clearly didn't want the marriage.
00:26:01I don't mind it, though.
00:26:03Do you like her?
00:26:05She's fine.
00:26:09This means I still have a chance.
00:26:11Joshua,
00:26:13if I had stayed by your side,
00:26:15you never would have had to marry
00:26:17a complete stranger.
00:26:19You would have had to marry a complete stranger
00:26:21like me and Gerber.
00:26:23I'm sure it hasn't been pleasant.
00:26:25Now that I'm back,
00:26:27you can always talk to me.
00:26:29Susie, you're a great friend.
00:26:31Of course.
00:26:33I'll always be there for you.
00:26:41How's it going?
00:26:45It's this marriage.
00:26:47He's Joshua. He's like a shadow.
00:26:49He's always there, but never really close.
00:26:53You deserve someone
00:26:55who can give you all the love and appreciation you need.
00:26:57Remember,
00:26:59if you ever need anything, I'm here.
00:27:03Thank you, Noah.
00:27:07How could I live without you?
00:27:11I can't live without you.
00:27:17How could I live without you?
00:27:33How could I live without you?
00:27:37I'd do everything to protect you, Mia.
00:27:47Joshua!
00:27:51We can't be like this forever.
00:27:53We have to talk.
00:27:57Why don't you talk to Noah?
00:27:59Seems like you have plenty to say to him.
00:28:01I don't even know what that means.
00:28:03There's nothing between Noah and me.
00:28:05You and Susie, on the other hand.
00:28:07What?
00:28:09Whatever you think, I don't care.
00:28:11Whatever you think, I don't care.
00:28:29What's he doing here?
00:28:33Look, I'm here to deliver some documents to Mia.
00:28:41And if you ever
00:28:43hurt her,
00:28:45just know that I will protect her at all costs.
00:28:47And what exactly
00:28:49have you done to protect her?
00:28:51Seems like all talk but no action.
00:28:53What are you two doing?
00:28:57What's going on here? Joshua, why are you acting so irrational?
00:28:59This is ridiculous!
00:29:01You invite him into our house just to talk to him?
00:29:03I didn't invite... Joshua!
00:29:05I'm sorry, Mia.
00:29:07I didn't mean to cause any rift between you two.
00:29:09It wasn't my intention.
00:29:11It's fine.
00:29:13Why are you here?
00:29:15I'm here to protect you and the company.
00:29:17I suspect that Dwayne Kaiser
00:29:19has been conspiring with Melody Healthcare.
00:29:23Is that Dwayne?
00:29:25And the CEO of Melody Healthcare?
00:29:31This plan is our game changer.
00:29:35What about Melody Healthcare?
00:29:37They're our biggest rival.
00:29:39They're going in a completely different direction.
00:29:41We're way ahead of them.
00:29:43And how do you know that?
00:29:45The CEO approached me the other day.
00:29:47He tried to get some information from me
00:29:49but I flipped it and got some information from him.
00:29:51Like I'd betray my own company.
00:29:53He'd be a fool to think that.
00:29:55Right, of course, Dwayne.
00:29:57Let's go ahead with the plan.
00:29:59See, he's fine.
00:30:01I don't know.
00:30:03There's something strange about him.
00:30:05I can't put my finger on it, but
00:30:07just keep your eyes open, okay?
00:30:09I will.
00:30:13Mia suspected,
00:30:15but I made her trust me now.
00:30:17Let's go ahead and move forward with the plan.
00:30:21Excellent.
00:30:23Let's go.
00:30:25Let's go ahead and move forward with the plan.
00:30:27Excellent.
00:30:29Once we execute the strategy,
00:30:31the Gerbers will be blindsided.
00:30:33Melody Healthcare
00:30:35will be the number one.
00:30:37Mia Gerber will be out of the company
00:30:41and I'll be the number one.
00:30:49How did they get ahead of us?
00:30:51This was our strategy.
00:30:53Dwayne.
00:30:55He's outside.
00:31:07Melody Healthcare just announced
00:31:09their new AI-generated
00:31:11online psychiatric care.
00:31:13The similarity of the details to ours
00:31:15is uncanny.
00:31:17I don't know.
00:31:19We kept everything under wraps.
00:31:21They must have developed
00:31:23this independently.
00:31:25Mia, you're just too young.
00:31:27You're not experienced enough in this business world.
00:31:29This stuff happens.
00:31:31I'm experienced enough to know that
00:31:33this is not a coincidence.
00:31:35And I don't need you
00:31:37to tell me what I do and do not know.
00:31:39You can leave.
00:31:51Why do you look so sullen all the time?
00:31:53Does it look good on you?
00:31:55Wow.
00:31:57Thanks for the comfort.
00:32:03Damn it. Why did I have to say that like that?
00:32:09Ms. Gerber, an emergency board meeting
00:32:11has been called.
00:32:13What?
00:32:15What?
00:32:23We need to talk about the leadership
00:32:25of this company.
00:32:27It is clear that Mia's recent decisions,
00:32:29well, they've been
00:32:31questionable.
00:32:35Acquiring Catherine Phinney's
00:32:37hospital was a big
00:32:39misstep.
00:32:41Now Melody's Healthcare is outpacing us.
00:32:43Mia, I'm sorry, but you're
00:32:45too young and inexperienced
00:32:47to be in this role.
00:32:49I believe under my leadership, our profits have already
00:32:51increased by 20%
00:32:53compared to last year.
00:32:55That's due to the overall market
00:32:57trend, not because of your leadership.
00:33:01My strategies have been
00:33:03more than effective. The Finley acquisition
00:33:05has potential long-term benefits.
00:33:07And our growth, by the way,
00:33:09is not just a fluke.
00:33:11This board needs
00:33:13a leader with experience
00:33:15and vision, not someone
00:33:17learning on a job.
00:33:19As a senior VP, on behalf of all the
00:33:21employees with Gerber Corporation,
00:33:23we support Mia.
00:33:25I also have evidence that Dwayne Kaiser has been
00:33:27conspiring with Melody Healthcare to undermine
00:33:29the company.
00:33:31I also have evidence that Dwayne Kaiser
00:33:33has been conspiring with Melody Healthcare
00:33:35to undermine the company.
00:33:38What is this?
00:33:40What are you doing?
00:33:42These are communications between Dwayne and Melody Healthcare.
00:33:44He leaked our strategy.
00:33:50You're fired, Dwayne. Effective immediately.
00:33:52I've been with you since you founded the company.
00:33:54All these years, I'm never the CEO,
00:33:56but you give it to your daughter?
00:33:58I've always known you were ambitious, but I never
00:34:00thought you would stoop this low.
00:34:02Your lack of
00:34:04trustworthiness is why you were never
00:34:06CEO. We built this
00:34:08company on integrity and trust.
00:34:10Values you clearly
00:34:12lack.
00:34:14Security, escort Mr. Kaiser
00:34:16out.
00:34:28Mia, we're so
00:34:30proud of you. You really handled
00:34:32the crisis well. Thank you.
00:34:34You truly are
00:34:36a go-getter.
00:34:40Noah, I can't
00:34:42thank you enough. Of course.
00:34:44You know I'd do anything for you.
00:34:46You know, I never asked, but
00:34:48how did you get your hands on those documents?
00:34:50It all started with
00:34:52an anonymous tip.
00:34:54Someone delivered photos of Dwayne meeting with
00:34:56the owner of Melody Healthcare,
00:34:58and I intercepted the tip.
00:35:01This is your schedule for the week.
00:35:03And what's this?
00:35:05Um, seems to be about Mr.
00:35:07Kaiser. Okay, I'll take that too.
00:35:09Thanks.
00:35:19Anonymous.
00:35:21Who would do that?
00:35:23I don't know, but the photos
00:35:25led me to dig deeper, and eventually
00:35:27I found clear evidence of his betrayal.
00:35:30Can I see the photos?
00:35:38I think I might know who's behind this,
00:35:40but I need to confirm.
00:35:46Ethan,
00:35:48I need to talk to you about these photos.
00:35:50Is this you? In the reflection?
00:35:52Were you following Dwayne?
00:35:54Yeah, it's me. Joshua
00:35:56asked me to keep an eye on Dwayne.
00:35:58He's had his suspicions about Dwayne's loyalty
00:36:00for a while. We then
00:36:02delivered the photos.
00:36:04Mr. Lane, what a surprise.
00:36:08Should I tell Ms. Lane you're here?
00:36:10No need to.
00:36:14Why couldn't Joshua just
00:36:16tell me about his suspicions?
00:36:18Joshua's a...
00:36:20He's a complicated man.
00:36:22He means well, but he struggles with expressing himself.
00:36:24He's never gone through such steps
00:36:26with anyone before Mia. This must mean he cares
00:36:28about you.
00:36:30He could just talk to me next time.
00:36:32Well, Joshua has his
00:36:34ways. He might not show it,
00:36:36but he cares deeply.
00:36:38I just ask that you
00:36:40don't hurt him.
00:36:42I won't.
00:36:46You're a loyal friend, Ethan.
00:36:48Joshua, I need to talk to you.
00:36:50It's about Dwayne Kaiser
00:36:52and Melody Healthcare.
00:36:54What about it?
00:36:56I know you sent Ethan to follow Dwayne.
00:36:58Why didn't you just talk to me?
00:37:00It just seemed like the best course of action at the time.
00:37:02Joshua, is there
00:37:04more to this marriage than the alliance?
00:37:06Did you do it because...
00:37:08No, no. It's nothing like that.
00:37:10I just couldn't have my wife being
00:37:12voted out of the alliance.
00:37:14I'm sorry.
00:37:16I just couldn't have my wife being voted out
00:37:18as CEO on paper.
00:37:20It would look bad for me.
00:37:22So it's all about appearances?
00:37:24Yes, Mia. It's all it ever is.
00:37:26We agreed to a business arrangement.
00:37:28Joshua, I'm so tired of this.
00:37:30Of living in a fantasy
00:37:32where I never actually get to know you.
00:37:34I'm more than just a tool
00:37:36for business advancement
00:37:38or keeping up appearances.
00:37:42I want a divorce.
00:37:46I want a divorce.
00:37:52Are you sure about this?
00:37:56I deserve something real in my life, Joshua.
00:37:58Not this
00:38:00facade.
00:38:02I deserve to be more than just a business
00:38:04arrangement in somebody's life.
00:38:06I want genuine happiness.
00:38:08I understand.
00:38:10If that's what you want.
00:38:12Joshua, please.
00:38:16Let's proceed with the divorce.
00:38:42Mia, I love you.
00:38:46Mia, I love you.
00:39:00Joshua, what are you doing to yourself?
00:39:02Mia.
00:39:04Mia?
00:39:06Mia, don't leave.
00:39:08Don't leave.
00:39:10Help me take him to his car.
00:39:14I'll take him to my place. He shouldn't be alone.
00:39:18Okay.
00:39:20Let's go.
00:39:30Mia.
00:39:32Mia.
00:39:40Morning, Josh.
00:39:42Here, drink this.
00:39:44You've had quite a night.
00:39:46Suzie.
00:39:48Where am I?
00:39:50This is my apartment.
00:39:52Nothing bad happened.
00:39:54I also drove your car back here.
00:39:56How did I get here?
00:39:58You were really drunk.
00:40:00I didn't think you should be alone.
00:40:02Josh,
00:40:04what happened?
00:40:06It's over between me and Mia.
00:40:08We're getting a divorce.
00:40:14Maybe it was never
00:40:16meant to be.
00:40:18You deserve someone who
00:40:20understands
00:40:22and loves you.
00:40:38No.
00:40:40I can't do this, Suzie.
00:40:42Why?
00:40:44I have always loved you.
00:40:46Now that you and Mia
00:40:48are getting a divorce, we can finally be together.
00:40:50Suzie,
00:40:52you are a dear friend
00:40:54and like a little sister.
00:40:56It can't be anything more.
00:40:58I'm sorry.
00:41:00Do you really love that
00:41:02Mia Gerber?
00:41:04Uh...
00:41:06Yes, Suzie.
00:41:08As a matter of fact, I do.
00:41:10I need to go tell her.
00:41:12Now.
00:41:34Your call is being forwarded
00:41:36to an automated voice message.
00:41:56Noah, hey.
00:41:58I've decided to divorce Joshua.
00:42:00Are you okay?
00:42:02I'm fine. It's just...
00:42:04It's for the best.
00:42:06There's something I need to tell you.
00:42:08Sorry.
00:42:10It's the hospital.
00:42:12Hello? What?
00:42:14What happened? Is he okay?
00:42:16Okay, yeah.
00:42:18I'll be right there.
00:42:20What's wrong?
00:42:22It's Joshua. He's been in an accident.
00:42:24Excuse me.
00:42:30Excuse me.
00:42:32I'm here for Joshua Lane.
00:42:40Joshua.
00:42:42Miss Gerber?
00:42:44Yeah.
00:42:46We found that Mr. Lane was attempting to call you
00:42:48when the accident occurred.
00:42:50It's all my fault.
00:42:53It was nobody's fault.
00:42:55It was an accident.
00:42:57But right now, he needs you.
00:42:59Do your best to help him wake up, will you?
00:43:04I won't leave you, Joshua.
00:43:10You remember that soup you made me?
00:43:12That meant the world to me.
00:43:16Whenever you get better,
00:43:18I'm gonna make you that soup.
00:43:22Isn't it what your mom's recipe?
00:43:24It was those little moments with you.
00:43:28You know, whenever we would wake up
00:43:30and come out of our rooms and see each other
00:43:32in the morning,
00:43:34sometimes that was the happiest part of my day.
00:43:46Please come back to me.
00:43:48This is all your fault, Mia.
00:43:50You drove him to this.
00:43:52You hurt him.
00:43:54And now, look what's happened to him.
00:44:04Mia, we have a problem.
00:44:06Eleanor and Alex are plotting
00:44:08to make Alex the new CEO
00:44:10while Joshua's in a coma.
00:44:12Now even Joshua's father's been convinced.
00:44:14So they're using Joshua Lane
00:44:16to their advantage.
00:44:18I won't stand for it.
00:44:20What's the plan?
00:44:22I'm meeting with Mr. Lane.
00:44:24He's a key shareholder of Lane Holdings.
00:44:26His voice can sway their mind.
00:44:30Thank you for agreeing to meet me
00:44:32on such short notice, Mr. Lane.
00:44:34I've always been curious about the famous Mia Gerber.
00:44:36After all, you're the one who led
00:44:38Gerber Corporation to the next level.
00:44:40You're too kind.
00:44:42I'm merely stating a fact.
00:44:44The second generation is as capable as you.
00:44:46So, tell me.
00:44:48Why do you want to see me?
00:44:50Is it about Alex being the new CEO?
00:44:54You're a wise man, Mr. Lane.
00:44:56Joshua's vision has been the driving force
00:44:58behind Lane Holdings.
00:45:00We cannot allow Alex to derail that.
00:45:04I can't do anything at this time.
00:45:06Joshua is out of commission.
00:45:08It's best to have someone lead the company.
00:45:10Gerald is not in good health
00:45:12after his stroke.
00:45:14Alex is the only choice.
00:45:16And what if I told you
00:45:18there's another choice?
00:45:22And what if I told you
00:45:24there's another choice?
00:45:26I can be the interim CEO
00:45:28of Lane Holdings as Joshua's legal wife.
00:45:30I can uphold his legacy
00:45:32and, as you mentioned before,
00:45:34I'm a very capable CEO in my own right.
00:45:36Your vote,
00:45:38of course, is crucial, but
00:45:40more than anything, people trust your judgment.
00:45:44If you choose to have faith in me, others will follow.
00:45:46And I promise
00:45:48I won't disappoint.
00:45:50Can you run two companies at the same time?
00:45:52I have a very capable team
00:45:54over at Gerber Corporation.
00:45:56They'll keep things running smoothly
00:45:58even if I'm not there full-time.
00:46:00I'll devote my time to Lane Holdings
00:46:02until Joshua gets better.
00:46:04What if he doesn't?
00:46:06He will.
00:46:08I admire your tenacity.
00:46:10I'll do what I can.
00:46:12Thank you, Mr. Lane.
00:46:30I'll fight for you, Joshua.
00:46:34You did the same for me.
00:46:38I won't let you down.
00:46:46Given Joshua's current condition,
00:46:48I propose Mia Gerber
00:46:50as the interim CEO
00:46:52of Lane Holdings.
00:46:54Mia Gerber?
00:46:56She's from a different company.
00:46:58How is she even qualified?
00:47:00Mia is Joshua's wife, the legal heir.
00:47:02She's proven her capabilities with Gerber Corporation,
00:47:04combining the strengths of both companies
00:47:06under her leadership
00:47:08will only make Lane Holdings stronger.
00:47:10This is absurd.
00:47:12Mia is practically a stranger
00:47:14to our company's operations.
00:47:16While I appreciate your concerns,
00:47:18I think my track record
00:47:20speaks for itself.
00:47:22And unlike Alex here, who has had his hand
00:47:24in multiple questionable
00:47:26business dealings,
00:47:28I offer a clean slate
00:47:30and a fresh perspective.
00:47:32I agree with Mr. Lane.
00:47:34Mia's appointment as interim CEO
00:47:36is the best course of action for now.
00:47:38We're dead.
00:47:40Stop, Alex.
00:47:46Joshua, I hope you're proud.
00:47:52Let's go.
00:47:54You think you can take over with no consequences, Mia?
00:47:56I'm gonna make her pay.
00:48:00You won't be touching her.
00:48:02Who the fuck are you?
00:48:08Damn it, she's gone.
00:48:10Take care of her.
00:48:18See the security camera?
00:48:20I'm gonna get the footage.
00:48:22And if you ever try and hurt me again,
00:48:24I'll call the police.
00:48:26You'll never become the CEO of Lane Holdings.
00:48:28Ever.
00:48:30God damn it!
00:48:42Thanks.
00:48:50Noah, what happened?
00:48:52Don't worry, I'm fine.
00:48:54You're not fine.
00:48:56You're bleeding.
00:49:00Are you okay?
00:49:04Thanks, but the reason I came over
00:49:06was because I wanted to
00:49:08finish our conversation before...
00:49:10Mrs. Lane, it's Mr. Lane.
00:49:12He's waking up from the coma.
00:49:16I have to go to the hospital.
00:49:18I just want to tell you something important.
00:49:20Nothing's more important than Joshua right now.
00:49:26Joshua, Joshua, Joshua.
00:49:28Joshua.
00:49:32When you wake up,
00:49:34we can be together.
00:49:38Mia doesn't deserve you.
00:49:40But you and I,
00:49:42we're meant to be.
00:49:48Mia.
00:49:50Joshua, you're awake.
00:49:54Mia.
00:49:56Excuse me, miss.
00:49:58Mr. Lane?
00:50:02Mr. Lane.
00:50:04Mia.
00:50:06Can you hear me, sir?
00:50:08Call his wife, Mia Gerber, immediately.
00:50:10Mr. Lane, I need you to concentrate for me.
00:50:12Do you remember what day it is?
00:50:14Mia.
00:50:16Yes, we're getting your wife right now, sir.
00:50:22Joshua.
00:50:24I'm sorry, this is all my fault.
00:50:26No, Mia.
00:50:28Don't blame yourself.
00:50:30It's a price I was willing to pay.
00:50:32You got hurt because of me.
00:50:34Mia, listen to me.
00:50:38I'm sorry
00:50:40for all the pain I caused you.
00:50:42For not being honest about my feelings.
00:50:46I was afraid to admit it.
00:50:48Even to myself.
00:50:50I can't hide it anymore.
00:50:52I love you, Mia.
00:50:56I never thought I'd hear you say those words.
00:51:00You should have said them sooner.
00:51:04I love you too, Joshua.
00:51:22Noah Bellini.
00:51:24Drinking alone?
00:51:26What do you want, Dwayne?
00:51:28Just to talk.
00:51:30You are underappreciated, Noah.
00:51:34Maybe we could help each other out.
00:51:42Thank you for standing up for me
00:51:44while I was, uh,
00:51:46out of my mind.
00:51:48Thank you for standing up for me
00:51:50while I was, uh, out.
00:51:52I heard you managed as interim CEO
00:51:54of Lane Holdings.
00:51:56I handled things.
00:51:58I actually have a business meeting later today
00:52:00with a potential partner.
00:52:02Who's the partner?
00:52:04Kevin Katz.
00:52:06He's a key player
00:52:08in the industry.
00:52:10Katz? He's notorious for being
00:52:12handsy with business partners.
00:52:14I don't like the idea
00:52:16of you two being alone.
00:52:18I can handle Katz.
00:52:20I've dealt with worse.
00:52:22Just be careful, alright?
00:52:24I will.
00:52:30I promise.
00:52:32Hey.
00:52:34I gotta go.
00:52:36Love you.
00:52:38Bye.
00:52:46So our collaboration will be mutually beneficial,
00:52:48especially when expanding into new markets.
00:52:50Absolutely, Mia.
00:52:52I've always admired Lane Holdings.
00:52:54Now with you at the helm,
00:52:56perhaps we can find ways
00:52:58to make our partnership
00:53:00more enjoyable.
00:53:04Mr. Katz, let's keep this strictly professional.
00:53:08Oh, come on, Mia.
00:53:10Don't be such a prude.
00:53:12Business is more fun when there's a
00:53:14personal touch.
00:53:18Don't you agree?
00:53:20I will not be doing business
00:53:22with people who cannot respect
00:53:24personal boundaries.
00:53:26You'll regret this, bitch.
00:53:28I could ruin Lane Holdings'
00:53:30reputation.
00:53:34Now you have one last chance.
00:53:36Oh!
00:53:38That's for being
00:53:40a disgusting pig.
00:53:50Hey.
00:53:52How'd the meeting go?
00:53:56Let's just say Kevin Katz won't be bothering us anymore.
00:53:58What did he do?
00:54:00I handled it.
00:54:02Okay?
00:54:04Let's just focus on
00:54:06getting you better and back in charge.
00:54:08Can I get you some water?
00:54:20Ethan, get the bodyguard and meet me
00:54:22downstairs. I can't explain right now,
00:54:24just do it.
00:54:30Where's Joshua?
00:54:32Joshua Lane checked out.
00:54:34He insisted he was well enough to leave.
00:54:36No, he's not fully recovered yet.
00:54:42What are you trying to do?
00:54:44Teach you a lesson that you can't touch
00:54:46Joshua Lane's woman.
00:54:52You can't do this.
00:54:54Lane, I can sue you
00:54:56and you'll end up in jail.
00:54:58This is you,
00:55:00Mr. Katz, doing something
00:55:02quite illegal. I must say,
00:55:04your taste is really reprehensible.
00:55:06You can't sue me.
00:55:08It was a long time ago.
00:55:10If I can still release the video,
00:55:12you'll lose everything.
00:55:14In fact, just
00:55:16it.
00:55:18The victim's identity was protected
00:55:20and they'll be set for the rest of their life.
00:55:22You!
00:55:24If you so much as speak a word about me
00:55:26or me, I'll make sure
00:55:28you wish you were born.
00:55:34Where were you? I was worried sick.
00:55:36I had to take care of something.
00:55:38About Katz.
00:55:40I told you I handled it.
00:55:42I can take care of myself.
00:55:44I won't allow anyone laying their hands on you.
00:55:46Still, it's so reckless.
00:55:50It's okay now.
00:55:52You handled it?
00:55:54Did.
00:55:58I really do love you, Joshua.
00:56:02I love you too, Mia.
00:56:06I have a surprise for you.
00:56:16I made something for you.
00:56:20What's this?
00:56:22It's your mom's recipe.
00:56:24I found it in a cookbook in the library.
00:56:28I can't believe you made this.
00:56:32I thought it might bring you some comfort.
00:56:42This is exactly how she used to make it.
00:56:46How'd you get it so right?
00:56:48I may have had some help from the internet
00:56:50and about 50 practice runs.
00:56:54You're just the best.
00:57:00We have a plan that could
00:57:02shift the balance of power in our favor.
00:57:06Our plan didn't overthrow
00:57:08Mia Gerber and the Gerber Corporation.
00:57:10But this time, we will.
00:57:14I don't want Mia to lose everything.
00:57:16I promise you, she won't.
00:57:18With the Gerber family's fortune,
00:57:20Mia's set for life.
00:57:22She just won't be the CEO anymore.
00:57:24Think about this.
00:57:26With the Gerber family out of practice,
00:57:28Lane Holdings,
00:57:30they won't partner with them.
00:57:32Joshua Lane will probably divorce Mia
00:57:34because she's no use to him.
00:57:36Mia could finally be yours.
00:57:38Here's the plan.
00:57:40We target Gerber Corporation's
00:57:42medical device supplier network.
00:57:44This roughly will cause significant issues
00:57:46in the hospital and psychiatric care units.
00:57:48How do we proceed?
00:57:50Melody Healthcare has insiders
00:57:52inside their supply chain.
00:57:54We'll start by creating delays
00:57:56and quality issues.
00:57:58The fallout will be immediate
00:58:00and devastating.
00:58:02The resources stretch so thin,
00:58:04they won't even see us coming.
00:58:12Congratulations on your recovery, Joshua.
00:58:16Congratulations on your recovery, Joshua.
00:58:18It's good to see you up and about.
00:58:20Thanks for coming.
00:58:22And thank you for
00:58:24being there for me during the coma.
00:58:26It means a lot.
00:58:28But it didn't matter,
00:58:30did it?
00:58:32In the end,
00:58:34only Mia matters to you.
00:58:36Susie, you'll always matter to me.
00:58:40But,
00:58:42yes, I love Mia.
00:58:44I love you too, but
00:58:46as a friend.
00:58:48That's not going to be enough for me.
00:58:50It's time for me to live my own life.
00:58:52That's why I'm here.
00:58:54To say goodbye.
00:58:58What's your plan?
00:59:00I'm helping out my dad with our family company.
00:59:02Harper Medical Devices.
00:59:06That's Gerber Corporation's biggest supplier, right?
00:59:08Yeah.
00:59:10Susie, you wouldn't...
00:59:12Joshua, we're not going to do anything to Mia.
00:59:14I'm focusing on my own path now.
00:59:20Goodbye, Joshua.
00:59:36Why are there so many cancelled contracts
00:59:38with Gerber Corporation?
00:59:40Hey,
00:59:42you haven't noticed any suppliers
00:59:44backing out of deals with Gerber Corporation?
00:59:48There are rumors
00:59:50someone's been persuading them
00:59:52to cut ties with the Gerbers.
01:00:02Hello?
01:00:04What do you mean
01:00:06they've stopped supplying to us?
01:00:20Noah,
01:00:22the suppliers are backing out for no reason.
01:00:24It's a competitive market, Mia.
01:00:26Yeah, but this feels coordinated.
01:00:28Isn't that unusual?
01:00:30Yeah, it is.
01:00:32Let's do it.
01:00:34Hey, are you okay?
01:00:36Yeah, I'm fine. Just busy.
01:00:38Don't worry about me.
01:00:40Okay.
01:00:48You look like you've been through a war zone.
01:00:50What happened?
01:00:52It's the supplier crisis.
01:00:54The situation's worse than I thought.
01:00:56I don't know what to do,
01:00:58Joshua.
01:01:02We'll get through this
01:01:04together.
01:01:14Thank you all for coming.
01:01:16We understand your concerns
01:01:18and we're prepared to increase profits
01:01:20to maintain our partnerships.
01:01:22Now the offer looks good.
01:01:24But we heard some rumors
01:01:26of internal issues
01:01:28within the Gerberation company
01:01:30involving a higher level.
01:01:32Let me assure you,
01:01:34Gerber Corporation is as strong as ever.
01:01:36These rumors are unfounded.
01:01:52You're right.
01:01:54There are gaps in Noah's whereabouts.
01:01:56Keep digging, Ethan.
01:01:58We need concrete evidence.
01:02:00Mia,
01:02:02Noah might be involved with the issues
01:02:04at the company.
01:02:06There's no way.
01:02:08He's very loyal to the company.
01:02:10Although he has been acting weird lately.
01:02:12Have you ever considered him or have you?
01:02:14No, I haven't.
01:02:16He's a good guy.
01:02:18He's a good guy.
01:02:20Have you ever considered him or have feelings for you?
01:02:22I mean,
01:02:24feelings make us do things.
01:02:26No.
01:02:28Noah's a brother to me.
01:02:30He's never even said anything remotely romantic.
01:02:32Actions speak
01:02:34louder than words.
01:02:36I mean, sure, he's supportive
01:02:38and caring, but that's just Noah being Noah.
01:02:40I really don't think there's anything
01:02:42more to it.
01:02:44Sometimes the people closest to us
01:02:46surprise us the most.
01:02:50Hey,
01:02:52just wanted to check in.
01:02:54We haven't had any time to talk lately.
01:02:56I've been good.
01:02:58I've just been busy dealing with the supplier crisis.
01:03:00I know, and I'm really grateful
01:03:02for you. You've done so much.
01:03:04I never wanted you to be burdened.
01:03:06I care too much about you.
01:03:12Hey,
01:03:14I have a question.
01:03:16You don't
01:03:18secretly have
01:03:20feelings for me,
01:03:22do you?
01:03:26What if I do?
01:03:28Oh.
01:03:30Really?
01:03:34I've put this off for too long,
01:03:36and I need to tell you now.
01:03:40I've loved you since the first time
01:03:42I met you.
01:03:44I still
01:03:46remember that day like it was yesterday.
01:03:48You were just starting college
01:03:50and came to visit the office
01:03:52during summer break.
01:03:54You wore a blue dress and looked like a princess.
01:03:58I was just starting off the company,
01:04:00and I come from a humble background,
01:04:02so I never thought I could be
01:04:04with someone like you.
01:04:06Not anymore.
01:04:08I'm stronger.
01:04:10I'm working.
01:04:12I know we should be together, Mia.
01:04:16Noah,
01:04:20I've really
01:04:22only ever seen you as a friend.
01:04:28It's because Joshua's done things for you.
01:04:30I've done more.
01:04:32No.
01:04:34I love him, okay? We understand each other.
01:04:36Because you're both born
01:04:38with silver spoons in your mouth and I wasn't?
01:04:40You know it's not that.
01:04:42I just, I have a really
01:04:44strong feeling about him.
01:04:46I'm...
01:04:48Just not feeling it?
01:04:50Noah,
01:04:52I'm sorry.
01:04:54I didn't mean to lead you on.
01:04:56It wasn't my intention to hurt you.
01:05:00It's okay.
01:05:04I understand.
01:05:06I just needed
01:05:08to hear it from you.
01:05:10I know.
01:05:14Dwayne,
01:05:16double down on the plan.
01:05:18There's no going back
01:05:20now.
01:05:26Noah,
01:05:30what brings you here?
01:05:32I think it's time for your company to reconsider
01:05:34its partnership with Gerber.
01:05:36What are you implying?
01:05:38It's simple. Harper Medical Devices
01:05:40is the biggest supplier for Gerber Corporation.
01:05:42If you cut ties with Gerber,
01:05:44it'll deal a critical
01:05:46blow to them.
01:05:48So,
01:05:50you're the one behind the scheme.
01:05:54Why would I go along with it?
01:05:56The question is, why wouldn't you?
01:05:58You and I are alike, Susie.
01:06:00We both love people
01:06:02who don't love us back.
01:06:04I've already let it go.
01:06:06Why let it go when you still have a chance?
01:06:08If me and the Gerber family
01:06:10are out of the company,
01:06:12the Lean family won the business alliance,
01:06:14Joshua and Mia will get divorced,
01:06:16and you and I
01:06:18can finally be with them.
01:06:22Join me.
01:06:24Together we can make sure
01:06:26we aren't ignored anymore.
01:06:28So, Mia,
01:06:30we've heard smaller suppliers
01:06:32are terminating contracts.
01:06:34Trust me, we have the situation under control.
01:06:36That's not what I heard.
01:06:38The rumor is Harper Medical Devices
01:06:40is pulling out.
01:06:42How do you explain this?
01:06:44I assure you we're addressing the concerns,
01:06:46but our relationship with our suppliers
01:06:48has never been stronger.
01:06:50As one of the largest shareholders,
01:06:52I have complete faith in Mia's leadership.
01:06:54These rumors are just that,
01:06:56rumors.
01:07:02The rumor was right.
01:07:04Harper Medical Devices
01:07:06decided to terminate the contract with us.
01:07:08But there's still hope.
01:07:10I've convinced Harper
01:07:12to continue their partnership with us,
01:07:14but only if I become
01:07:16the new CEO.
01:07:18It's time for a change in leadership,
01:07:20someone who can steer this company
01:07:22in the right direction.
01:07:24So I've brought Susie Harper with me,
01:07:26the acting CEO of Harper Medical Devices.
01:07:30Susie will tell you all that
01:07:32she would like Mia Gerber to resign.
01:07:38Actually, I think there's been a misunderstanding.
01:07:40Harper Medical Devices
01:07:42never intended to terminate
01:07:44our contracts with Gerber Corporation.
01:07:46Any rumor suggesting otherwise
01:07:48is false.
01:07:50Furthermore,
01:07:52I believe in Mia's leadership
01:07:54and the direction that she's taking this company.
01:07:56Thank you, Susie.
01:07:58I owe you a big one.
01:08:00You don't owe me anything.
01:08:02I just want Joshua
01:08:04and the person he loves to be happy.
01:08:08Promise me
01:08:10you'll never hurt him.
01:08:14And I have evidence
01:08:16that Noah Belani has been conspiring
01:08:18with former ousted executive
01:08:20Dwayne Kaiser
01:08:22to sabotage the company.
01:08:24Mr. Belani,
01:08:26your actions have

01:08:56I've thought a lot about what happened
01:08:58and I wanted to say sorry.
01:09:02I should have been clearer
01:09:04and I didn't mean to lead you on.

01:09:12and my actions
