00:00:00I appreciate it.
00:00:01So sweet.
00:00:03What was that?
00:00:04Mr. Holland!
00:00:05Emma!
00:00:06She pushed Madison down the stairs!
00:00:07What?
00:00:08James, help me!
00:00:09Emma just pushed me down the stairs!
00:00:10Emma, what did you do?
00:00:11She's trying to kill my baby!
00:00:12James, you've got to get Madison to the hospital right now!
00:00:13I can't!
00:00:14I can't!
00:00:15I can't!
00:00:16I can't!
00:00:17I can't!
00:00:18I can't!
00:00:19I can't!
00:00:20I can't!
00:00:21I can't!
00:00:22I can't!
00:00:23I can't!
00:00:24I can't!
00:00:25I can't!
00:00:26I can't!
00:00:27I can't!
00:00:28I can't!
00:00:29I can't!
00:00:30We have to get Madison to the hospital right now!
00:00:31That child inside it is the last thing we have of your brother!
00:00:32No, Grandpa, it's not what it looks like.
00:00:35I didn't do it.
00:00:36How could you do that to an unborn child?!
00:00:38I didn't!
00:00:39Madison did it!
00:00:40Chloe!
00:00:41Grandpa, if James doesn't know how to discipline his wife, I'll do it for him!
00:00:46Emma, your marriage between James is over.
00:00:52He sacrificed everything for me.
00:00:57Are you sorry for what you did?
00:01:18James.
00:01:19Are you sorry for what you did?
00:01:21Am I sorry for what I did?
00:01:23No.
00:01:24I didn't do anything wrong, James.
00:01:27Why don't you ever believe me?
00:01:28I'm your wife.
00:01:29I should have never married you.
00:01:32Well, that makes two of us now.
00:01:41And I'm leaving you, but I want a divorce.
00:01:48Good.
00:01:49Don't regret it.
00:01:51Are you finally leaving, bitch?
00:01:55If it wasn't for you, Madison would have married James years ago, like she should have.
00:01:58Well, you know what?
00:02:01Now she can.
00:02:25Your mother and I have gone out of our way to keep your secret identity.
00:02:48We sent you abroad to chase your artistic dreams.
00:02:52You had a successful career abroad.
00:02:54Why would you leave that behind?
00:02:55To marry James Harland?
00:02:57I told you that was going to be a mistake.
00:02:59Sweetheart, I know you don't want anything to do with the family business, and you don't
00:03:03want to be associated with this everywhere you go, but your blood is Winston blood.
00:03:10So please, move home.
00:03:12Live with us again.
00:03:14I thought I loved him, Dad.
00:03:16I really did.
00:03:19Did he put his hands on you?
00:03:21Ethan, call the police.
00:03:23Not necessary.
00:03:24Just say the word, Emma, and I'll make him pay.
00:03:35What's wrong?
00:03:39They think that I caused Madison's miscarriage.
00:03:42They want to sue me and take everything I have left.
00:03:45Well, what are you going to do now?
00:03:51I need you to do me a favor, Ethan.
00:03:54Name it.
00:03:55I need you to let me borrow Megapower Media.
00:04:01I want revenge.
00:04:02I told you she was a fighter.
00:04:04You want revenge?
00:04:06On James Harland?
00:04:07No, on every single one of them.
00:04:09That's a Winston.
00:04:24Sir, welcome back.
00:04:29It's confirmed.
00:04:31She is officially single.
00:04:33I've been waiting for this day for so long.
00:04:36Sir, I'd say it's the perfect time to go after Ms. Peterson.
00:04:40Not yet, Larry.
00:04:42It's more complicated than you think.
00:04:47Welcome to the Harland Group's autumn product launch.
00:04:50Please take your seat.
00:04:52Now, let's start with a sneak peek of the long-awaited product launch from the Harland Group.
00:05:04Oh, Emma.
00:05:06James doesn't love you.
00:05:07Don't you get it?
00:05:09You're going to push me down the stairs?
00:05:11I lost my child.
00:05:12What do you think James thinks?
00:05:14All I have to do is tell him I'm confused.
00:05:17Ah!
00:05:28Ms. Peterson, it's done.
00:05:29The video will be everywhere in less than an hour.
00:05:32Excellent.
00:05:33I hope Madison likes my get-well gift.
00:05:39That fucking bitch!
00:05:41Grandpa, that video was fabricated.
00:05:44Alright, quiet!
00:05:47Where is James?
00:05:49Tell him to get Emma here now.
00:05:55I'm working on it, Chloe.
00:05:56Stop fucking calling me.
00:06:02Frank, get in here!
00:06:05Mr. Harland, tell PR to take that fucking video down now.
00:06:08We tried, but it was already requested for release by the CEO of Megapower Media.
00:06:18Stop fucking calling me!
00:06:20How does Madison like my get-well gift?
00:06:22Emma?
00:06:24This was you?
00:06:27Emma.
00:06:28Emma!
00:06:29Fuck!
00:06:33This is slanderous to this family.
00:06:36Now I don't care if you are divorced or not.
00:06:39She needs to publicly apologize and admit her mistake.
00:06:43I'll see what I can do.
00:06:51Fuck, I'm so fucked.
00:06:53How did she even get that footage?
00:06:55So it's true, isn't it?
00:06:57James.
00:07:00I can explain.
00:07:01Do you think I'm a fool?
00:07:03Pack your stuff.
00:07:04I'll have someone send you abroad tomorrow.
00:07:06No, James, please, please don't send me away.
00:07:08James, I love you.
00:07:15Emma, you bitch.
00:07:18You fucking bitch.
00:07:21You will regret this.
00:07:24Mr. Harland, we've looked everywhere, but we cannot find Emma's whereabouts.
00:07:28So you're telling me my ex-wife just vanished in thin air?
00:07:31Sir, we have scoured the entire city, but we have no idea where she is.
00:07:39Ms. Peterson, your revenge has officially begun.
00:07:42What do you want our strategy to be for this negotiation?
00:07:45I don't know.
00:07:46I don't know.
00:07:47I don't know.
00:07:48I don't know.
00:07:49I don't know.
00:07:50I don't know.
00:07:51I don't know.
00:07:52I don't know.
00:07:53What do you want our strategy to be for this negotiation?
00:07:56We'll be tough.
00:08:08Mr. Roberts, the contract has been reviewed.
00:08:10Here are some thoughts from our new CEO on a few clauses.
00:08:13Actually, Mr. Harland has insisted on joining us to negotiate personally with Megapower Media.
00:08:22Awkward.
00:08:24Mr. Harland, this is Ms. Peterson.
00:08:27She is the new CEO of Megapower Media.
00:08:31Mr. Harland.
00:08:34Pleasure to meet you.
00:08:40Mr. Harland, take a look at the contract.
00:08:43Ms. Peterson has some suggested modification in terms of future collaborations between the company.
00:08:52You call this a few modifications?
00:08:55Of course, Mr. Harland might need some time to read over it.
00:08:58We can reschedule the meeting.
00:09:14Emma?
00:09:15Oh my god, how do you have the nerve to show your face around here?
00:09:18You owe the Harlands an apology.
00:09:19Oh, why can't I be here?
00:09:21Oh, why can't I be here? Do you own the place, Chloe?
00:09:23Do you know what they're saying about us in the media?
00:09:25You've completely ruined our reputation!
00:09:28You are so spoiled, Chloe. It's time you learned some manners.
00:09:32This is your lucky break. Savor it.
00:09:37This is your lucky break. Savor it.
00:09:40James! Do you see what she just did? She pushed me and broke my arm!
00:09:44What's gotten into you, Emma?
00:09:45Oh, so now my ex-husband decides to show some interest in me.
00:09:48I am done with you. Get out of my way.
00:09:51James, what are you doing?
00:09:53Just let her go.
00:09:55James, you're just gonna stand there and watch her bust my chops?
00:09:58I'll bust your credit card in half, Chloe.
00:10:01How about that?
00:10:08Grandpa, Emma's trying to destroy our family's reputation. You can't just let this happen.
00:10:13How could you just let her walk away?
00:10:15You bring that wretched woman back and make her apologize.
00:10:18We're divorced, Grandpa. It's a free country. She can do whatever she wants.
00:10:22So what? She apologizes or I put her in jail.
00:10:29You've seen the video. Madison's the one who brought shame to the family name.
00:10:34The public's on Emma's side.
00:10:36James.
00:10:38James!
00:10:39James!
00:11:02Jake, what do you want?
00:11:03James, come to NYFO right now.
00:11:06No, it's too late.
00:11:09Wait, you're at Henry Lawson's nightclub?
00:11:12Dude, your ex-wife is here.
00:11:15She's surrounded by a bunch of guys all trying to win her over.
00:11:18What?
00:11:19Yeah, she's right in front of me.
00:11:22Are you coming or what?
00:11:24Hello? Hello?
00:11:30Uh-huh, I got it like that.
00:11:32Uh-huh, yeah, I got it like that.
00:11:35Uh-huh, I got it like that.
00:11:38Baby, I'm a big deal. I got it like that.
00:11:41Where you been, man?
00:11:47Your ex-wife is on fire.
00:11:49Shut up, Jake!
00:11:53What the fuck is Henry Lawson?
00:11:55You jealous or what?
00:11:59Easy, easy, man. I was just kidding.
00:12:08Do you come here often?
00:12:10No, it's my first time.
00:12:13I just got divorced.
00:12:15Congrats! You having fun?
00:12:18Yeah, this place is cool.
00:12:21I'll get your room.
00:12:22What's up?
00:12:43Hey.
00:12:45Hi.
00:12:47I don't think I've seen you here before.
00:12:50You come here often?
00:12:51Well, it is the biggest club in the city, and I have to not own it.
00:12:58I'm Henry.
00:12:59Emma.
00:13:00Oh, I know who you are. I watch the news.
00:13:05I actually know who you are, too.
00:13:07Henry Lawson of Elkirk, right? You have quite the reputation.
00:13:12Despite my reputation, I am a one-girl type of guy.
00:13:18A one-girl-per-night type of guy?
00:13:20A one-girl-per-life type of guy.
00:13:25Oh, my God.
00:13:27Security! Security!
00:13:29No!
00:13:30Please, leave the stage. She's working.
00:13:33It's you.
00:13:35Oh!
00:13:46Thank you so much.
00:13:48Of course. I've been through something similar. Happy to help.
00:13:51Applause for my hero!
00:14:00These are for you.
00:14:08Emma!
00:14:11Emma!
00:14:13You're coming home with me now.
00:14:15What do you still want from me?
00:14:17This whole scandal has gone on long enough.
00:14:19Grandpa wants you to apologize publicly.
00:14:21CEO of Harlan Group graces us with his presence.
00:14:24Henry, this is between me and Emma.
00:14:26You're wasting your time.
00:14:29Tell me, Henry, what do you see in her?
00:14:31Don't you know she's a gold digger?
00:14:33I didn't take a penny of yours, James.
00:14:35You take me home.
00:14:37Gladly.
00:14:48Ms. Peterson, is it true that you're dating our boss, Henry Lawson?
00:14:54No, we're just...
00:14:55Well, well, if it isn't Emma Peterson.
00:14:59Already getting cozy with Henry Lawson?
00:15:01Can you just check me out?
00:15:03Of course.
00:15:04Can you even afford to shop here?
00:15:07I can afford a few bags, Chloe.
00:15:10You're nobody without my brother.
00:15:12Then why are you still bothering me?
00:15:14Please, Emma, hurry.
00:15:16I will take everything that she picked.
00:15:18Oh, miss, I don't think that...
00:15:20Oh, I'm sorry. Are you suggesting I can't afford to shop here?
00:15:23I...
00:15:26It's fine. She can have it.
00:15:28Okay, um...
00:15:29Miss Chloe, the total is $57,000.
00:15:31On this card?
00:15:32How much?
00:15:38Miss, your card has been declined.
00:15:43That's impossible. Run it again.
00:15:45Are you sure you don't want to explore other options?
00:15:47These are limited editions, after all.
00:15:49Are you suggesting I can't afford to shop here?
00:15:52Just pack it up for me.
00:15:54You shameless bitch!
00:15:56You were nothing without Henry Lawson.
00:15:59Oh!
00:16:01How dare you!
00:16:02Were you just calling my name, Ms. Harlan?
00:16:04Henry Lawson?
00:16:05Boss?
00:16:06Don't call me boss. From now on, this store belongs to Ms. Peterson.
00:16:11What's going on here?
00:16:12So, Emma, now that this is your store, what do you want us to do with our unruly guests?
00:16:22Escort her out and ban her from shopping here.
00:16:24Emma, I am not done with you!
00:16:31Why is it that you always happen to be around me?
00:16:33Are you stalking me?
00:16:35Just doing my routine checks on all my businesses.
00:16:38Well, hey, thanks for today. Truly.
00:16:41But I don't like to be misunderstood.
00:16:44Misunderstood that I'm pursuing you?
00:16:46There's no misunderstanding. I am pursuing you, Ms. Peterson.
00:16:50Hey, I was going to grab a coffee.
00:16:53You want to join me?
00:16:54Right here?
00:16:55Yeah.
00:16:57Not the worst spot in the world.
00:16:59Okay.
00:17:01Aren't there rumors of you being with female actresses from your company?
00:17:08I can't deny it, but for now, all I think about is you.
00:17:13Really?
00:17:14I know you don't believe me, Ms. Peterson, but time will prove everything.
00:17:19Okay, first of all, call me Emma, and I'll be waiting for the proof.
00:17:26And I'll be waiting for the proof.
00:17:40You want to grab dinner tonight?
00:17:47I think coffee's enough.
00:17:49But thank you for today. Truly.
00:17:51If you really want to thank me, there's an auction in a couple of days.
00:17:55Why don't you come with me?
00:17:59Okay.
00:18:11What a surprise.
00:18:13These two look like a couple to me.
00:18:15Shut up, James.
00:18:16You know that James would be here, too?
00:18:19What a surprise.
00:18:20Emma really has hooked up with Henry.
00:18:23Did you see the dress she's wearing? It's over $100,000.
00:18:27The first item up for bids at this evening's auction is this solid gold pocket watch.
00:18:33Pre-owned by the Duke of Devonshire.
00:18:35Who will open the bidding at $1 million?
00:18:38Do I have $1 million?
00:18:40There's nothing sparking your interest.
00:18:42Oh, I see something.
00:18:44What I'm interested in isn't up for auction.
00:18:46Do I have $1 million?
00:18:50That pocket watch is pretty. My dad collects them.
00:18:54$1 million.
00:18:55I have $1 million from the gentleman on my left. Thank you, sir.
00:18:59$2 million.
00:19:00$2 million. Thank you, Mr. Harland. Any more?
00:19:05$3 million.
00:19:09$3 million, Mr. Lawson. Thank you. Any more?
00:19:13$5 million.
00:19:14Any more?
00:19:15$5 million.
00:19:16$5 million.
00:19:17Are you insane?
00:19:18Shut up, Jay.
00:19:20$5 million twice.
00:19:22Sold to Mr. Harland for $5 million. Thank you.
00:19:26That is just crazy. Shut up, Jay.
00:19:28The highlight of this evening's auction, this pink diamond necklace from Italy.
00:19:33Starting at $5 million.
00:19:35$10 million.
00:19:36I have $10 million from Mr. Harland. Thank you.
00:19:40$20 million.
00:19:41$20 million, Mr. Lawson on my left.
00:19:43$50 million.
00:19:44$50 million.
00:19:46$50 million from Mr. Harland.
00:19:49$100 million.
00:19:50$100 million, Mr. Lawson.
00:19:53$150 million.
00:19:54$150 million.
00:19:57$150 million once. Going twice.
00:20:01Sold to Mr. Harland for $150 million.
00:20:09You know that necklace wasn't worth $150 million.
00:20:12Learning fast.
00:20:14Learning from my future girlfriend.
00:20:17That is just crazy. Shut up, Jake.
00:20:22I'm gonna go use the restroom for a moment.
00:20:35What have I gotten myself into?
00:20:43James, what do you want?
00:20:45Just so you know, Henry is only using you to get back at me.
00:20:49Oh, okay. Thanks for the heads up.
00:20:51And just so you know, we are divorced.
00:20:54Does Henry know all the intimate details of how you landed the CEO position at NPM?
00:20:58What are you talking about?
00:21:00I know Winston Group has controlling interest in mega media.
00:21:03So what's your connection to the Winston family?
00:21:06Hey, let her go, Harland.
00:21:08Hey, let her go, Harland.
00:21:10Henry, you're just a pawn she's using to climb the ladder.
00:21:14Let her go and learn to take a loss.
00:21:16You're divorced.
00:21:18She clearly didn't get what she wanted from you.
00:21:20You'll regret this.
00:21:22Whatever this is, you'll regret it.
00:21:25Have a nice day, James.
00:21:39You can't come in!
00:21:41Emma Peterson, what is this?
00:21:44I demand an explanation.
00:21:46Don't you remember that James and I are divorced?
00:21:49Plus, this is my workplace. Please do not make a scene here.
00:21:52How much money do you want to stop creating scandals for the Harlands?
00:21:57You think you can buy me off?
00:21:59Oh, cut the act, Emma.
00:22:01I know you have a price. Name it.
00:22:09You know, I came here to offer some goodwill.
00:22:14But don't blame me when my generosity stops.
00:22:18Goodwill?
00:22:20All I have received from the Harlands for the past four years is torment and pain.
00:22:25Katie, please get security to see Mr. Harland out.
00:22:29Mr. Harland.
00:22:30How dare you?
00:22:32I'm sorry.
00:22:34Please get security to see Mr. Harland out.
00:22:37Mr. Harland.
00:22:38How dare you? Take your hands off me!
00:22:42You will regret this.
00:22:48Emma! How dare you kick my grandpa out? Go apologize to him!
00:22:52He barged in on me. I did him a favor by not calling the police.
00:22:56You bitch! I've been looking everywhere for you.
00:22:59Okay, you know, he had a right to be there. He's a businessman and he was protecting our family.
00:23:03I don't know who you think you are, but you need to go apologize to him right now.
00:23:08Yeah, that's right.
00:23:20Mike, I need you to teach someone some manners.
00:23:30Time to close out.
00:23:32Would you like another drink?
00:23:34I'm going to take the trash out. A little closer than five.
00:23:36Okay.
00:23:53Who are you? What do you want?
00:23:56I won't complicate things for you. Be smart. Share a drink with me and I'll let you go.
00:24:01No.
00:24:05No. Whatever they are paying you, I will pay you double.
00:24:08I don't need more money. It's more than the thrill I'm at for now.
00:24:14Come on, Emma.
00:24:17Emma, pick up the fucking phone.
00:24:19Your call has been forwarded to an automated...
00:24:23Something's not right.
00:24:25Hold her tight!
00:24:32Emma!
00:24:33Fuck off!
00:24:39Emma!
00:24:40Fuck off!
00:24:45Who's behind this?
00:24:46Michelle Lawson, we had no idea she was with you.
00:24:48I said, who the fuck is behind this?
00:24:50It was Miss Harlan.
00:24:52Chloe Harlan gave me $100,000 to kidnap Emma.
00:24:56You know what to do.
00:24:58Come on, guys. It was just a misunderstanding.
00:25:01If we had known, we wouldn't have taken this job.
00:25:23Where am I?
00:25:32You're at my place.
00:25:34I couldn't find your keys, so I brought you here instead.
00:25:37How are you feeling?
00:25:39I'm fine.
00:25:42How did you find me?
00:25:44I called you and you didn't pick up.
00:25:46I knew something was wrong.
00:25:49Quite the detective.
00:25:51I scoured the city to find you.
00:25:53Here, get some rest and I'll go settle the score with the Harlins.
00:25:57I got it. I just... I need to put Chloe in her place.
00:26:02Emma?
00:26:09Emma?
00:26:11What's going on?
00:26:13Am I being kidnapped?
00:26:15Room service.
00:26:17You fucking bitch! You're gonna go to jail for this!
00:26:21You'll go to jail.
00:26:23Let me remind you, last Friday, you had me kidnapped.
00:26:26I don't know what you're talking about. You don't have any evidence.
00:26:29Ms. Peterson has suffered too much because of you and your family.
00:26:32It's time for you to have a taste of your own medicine.
00:26:35I just want you to apologize.
00:26:37To admit what you've done.
00:26:38Oh, kiss my ass!
00:26:39Fine.
00:26:44No! No! No, no, no!
00:26:46No!
00:26:47No!
00:26:49No! No, no!
00:26:52Stop it!
00:26:55Well...
00:26:57That was quick.
00:26:58James, she tried to poison me and humiliate me!
00:27:00Mr. Harland, all that was in Chloe's drink was multivitamin.
00:27:03We're just trying to teach your sister some manners.
00:27:06Emma, I never thought you'd stoop this low. Apologize to Chloe.
00:27:09James, she tried to kidnap me! Call the police!
00:27:12Sure, and when the police come, they'll see that you tried to kidnap me last Friday.
00:27:17I've got all the evidence.
00:27:22Chloe Harland gave me $100,000 to kidnap Emma.
00:27:29James, I don't feel so good.
00:27:31I need to go to the hospital.
00:27:34Take care of your sister. Keep her from embarrassing herself some more.
00:27:37How much do you want? Name your price.
00:27:41James, after all these years...
00:27:44You know so little.
00:27:54Uh-huh. I see.
00:27:58Well, who is it this time?
00:28:00Eden Winston? Henry Lawson? Or did you find yourself another sugar daddy?
00:28:04Security!
00:28:05This woman's not on the guest list. Get her out of here.
00:28:09My name is Emma Peterson. I'm the CEO of NPM.
00:28:14I'm so sorry, Ms. Peterson. There must be some kind of mistake.
00:28:19This is clearly a fake! You're nothing without the Harland family. Nothing!
00:28:22Ms. Peterson is my guest.
00:28:25Mr. Winston, how could you invite someone like her?
00:28:27Oh, you didn't hear? Ms. Peterson is the new CEO of the entertainment company under Winston Group.
00:28:32It's perfectly reasonable for me to invite her.
00:28:36That's a lovely necklace you have on there.
00:28:38Thank you. It's Selena. She designed it for me.
00:28:40Madison gave it to me for my birthday.
00:28:43Oh! How could you? Give that back!
00:28:46It's a fake. The real one was sold to a Saudi princess.
00:28:49Well, it takes one to know one. I bet your necklace is fake.
00:28:52I can assure you, Emma is wearing authentic antique jewelry from the Winston family collection.
00:28:59Do you have any idea what your lady has been up to in your absence?
00:29:11Ms. Peterson. You're looking like quite the knockout tonight.
00:29:15Excuse me?
00:29:16Hey, hey, hey, hey. Wait a minute.
00:29:18What's the rush? What's the rush? Huh?
00:29:20Hey, how much is it for a night with you again?
00:29:26Not much. Just a cool million.
00:29:29You're joking now, huh?
00:29:31Oh, right. You're just James' leftovers, huh?
00:29:34If you can't afford it, I suggest you leave.
00:29:38Oh, sorry. Mr. Lawson.
00:29:42I was just joking around with Ms. Peterson.
00:29:45I was just joking around with Ms. Peterson.
00:29:56Thanks, Henry.
00:29:59See that, Ethan? She's flirting with Henry Lawson right in front of you. How can you tolerate that?
00:30:04I don't mind. She's single. Isn't it perfectly normal to meet new people?
00:30:16Ladies and gentlemen.
00:30:19I'm here tonight to announce that Emma will be officially appointed as the vice president of Winston Group.
00:30:36Enjoy your evening.
00:30:38Emma. What a coincidence.
00:30:41James insisted I come back. You know, he visits me every day.
00:30:45Madison, you know that we're not rivals, right?
00:30:48If James wants you, he'll marry you sooner or later.
00:30:52Oh, Emma. You've grown so much. I'm impressed.
00:31:06Emma!
00:31:07Emma!
00:31:09She slapped me!
00:31:13Well, if that's how it is, let me finish what you started.
00:31:19Emma, haven't you had enough?
00:31:21James, it's okay. It's not our fault. I made her upset.
00:31:26Well, you're playing the victim so that James will marry you, right?
00:31:30You don't get to bully me anymore. Don't mess with me ever again, Madison.
00:31:38Emma.
00:31:50Henry.
00:31:53Ethan. What are you two doing here?
00:31:56It's about Madison and James. We've uncovered something.
00:32:00Turns out the Evertons and the Harlins had a marriage contract.
00:32:03Well, it's not a secret. James was supposed to marry Madison.
00:32:07Well, it seems like James wasn't in a rush to get married,
00:32:10so Madison kept pressuring John Harlin to make it happen.
00:32:13Until whatever happened between you and James four years ago.
00:32:17I was so drunk that night, I don't remember anything.
00:32:20Except that I woke up the next morning and I thought that I'd married the boy of my dreams.
00:32:25Well, either way, the news broke immediately. John Harlin was pissed.
00:32:28So James had to marry you for the sake of family honor.
00:32:33That's why Madison didn't hesitate to marry James' brother.
00:32:37Even though he was short-lived.
00:32:39So Madison never loved James. She just wanted the family money.
00:32:45How is that surprising?
00:32:51So James thinks that I plotted that one-night stand for his family fortune, too.
00:32:56That's what he's been telling the press.
00:32:59That this could really hurt your position as CEO.
00:33:05Hey, I got an idea.
00:33:07You thinking what I'm thinking?
00:33:17Gates. In lab.
00:33:20What the hell is she doing here?
00:33:22I'm up. Let's settle this today.
00:33:25You've got some leverage, I'll give you that.
00:33:27So let's not argue and agree on a story that we can actually tell the media.
00:33:31That's why we're here, isn't it?
00:33:33Good. You'll stand with my family and tell the media that you married me because you needed the money at the time.
00:33:38Madison will admit her mistakes and the Harlin group will retract all allegations against you regarding the CEO of NPM.
00:33:46No one will question your reputation ever again.
00:33:52Okay, about that one-night stand four years ago. Do you really think I did it to trick you into marrying me?
00:33:59Weren't you after my trust fund?
00:34:01After four years of marriage, do you not know what kind of person I am?
00:34:05Oh, please, Emma. Everyone knows why you married James.
00:34:09Well, since you're so concerned with money, get ready to bid farewell to it.
00:34:14What are you talking about? What do you know? What do you know?
00:34:18James, what if she goes and spreads a bunch of rumors?
00:34:22I don't know.
00:34:30Ms. Peterson, will you reconcile with Mr. Harlin?
00:34:33I have no connection to James Harlin anymore.
00:34:36He can now marry Madison according to his previous agreement.
00:34:39Madison, isn't she her widowed sister-in-law?
00:34:42If you have any further questions, you can ask James Harlin himself.
00:34:48Mr. Harlin, is Ms. Peterson telling the truth?
00:34:50Did you divorce Ms. Peterson because of Madison? Are you planning to marry your brother's widow?
00:34:56Mr. Harlin, did your brother know about this before passing away?
00:34:59If you dare publish anything, get ready for a lawsuit.
00:35:02So, there's a question that I've been meaning to ask you for a while.
00:35:21If it was me that was with you that night four years ago, would you have married me?
00:35:29You sound absurd. Again.
00:35:30Is it because I used to be a bit of a playboy?
00:35:33Seriously? A bit of a playboy?
00:35:35What if I'm not like that? Would you be with me?
00:35:40Okay, clearly James has no feelings for me.
00:35:43So, if you're trying to get back at him, you should pursue Madison, not me.
00:35:48You think I'm trying to get back at James?
00:35:50Why else would you pursue me right after getting a divorce?
00:35:54Am I genuinely, genuinely like you?
00:36:19Thanks for today. I really appreciate it.
00:36:21Thanks for today. I gotta go home.
00:36:30Maybe we can do this again sometime?
00:36:35Sure.
00:36:46James, what are you doing?
00:36:49What's your game, Emma?
00:36:51We are finished!
00:36:53You arranged those journalists, didn't you?
00:36:55Trying to paint a picture of me and Madison?
00:36:57You're cruel.
00:36:59For four years of marriage, what did you do for me?
00:37:02You stood there and watched Chloe and Madison humiliate me every day!
00:37:06Why did you just stand there and watch and do nothing, James?
00:37:10I was your wife!
00:37:12I'm cruel?
00:37:14You are the cruelest person I've ever known!
00:37:18And I was in love with you!
00:37:21You were in love with me?
00:37:23Go to hell!
00:37:25Hey, get off of her!
00:37:29Hey, get off of her!
00:37:31Hey, don't move.
00:37:33Henry, I underestimated you.
00:37:35James, I've been putting up with your fucking bullshit for way too long.
00:37:37Bailey's mutual!
00:37:39If you didn't even love her, why the fuck did you marry her, you fucking asshole?
00:37:42Oh, Henry, you're not actually falling for Emma, are you?
00:37:45A playboy like you falling for a girl I didn't even want?
00:37:48She's mine. She doesn't belong to anybody.
00:37:52Guys, stop!
00:37:54Go home, James!
00:37:59Let's get you home.
00:38:01Okay.
00:38:10What are you looking at?
00:38:12Nothing.
00:38:14Do we have some robotics?
00:38:21Yeah.
00:38:34Okay, alright, take it easy.
00:38:36What the hell happened?
00:38:38Be honest with me, Jake.
00:38:41I heard you said something really terrible that night.
00:38:44Is that James Harlan?
00:38:46Did you hit your head, man?
00:38:48Are you actually asking a conscience-driven question right now?
00:38:51Okay.
00:38:53I mean, honestly,
00:38:56divorcing you was the smartest thing Emma's ever done.
00:39:03But, uh, what's really going on?
00:39:06Fucking Henry Lawson.
00:39:08What? Henry Lawson?
00:39:12Do you feel like I unfairly blame Emma for everything?
00:39:19No.
00:39:21Shut up, Jake.
00:39:23Fuck that guy, D.
00:39:25And this fucking Henry Lawson?
00:39:27He doesn't know it.
00:39:31Okay.
00:39:33You two have had enough.
00:39:35It's time to go.
00:39:37James!
00:39:39I want you to hang out with us.
00:39:41James, just one more drink, please.
00:39:49Okay.
00:40:06Emma is really trying to infuriate me.
00:40:09Do we even know what she wants yet?
00:40:11I tried, Grandpa.
00:40:13Meanwhile, James is doing nothing.
00:40:15Have you seen the memes of our family on social media?
00:40:17How can you let a little gossip
00:40:19spiral out of control like this?
00:40:21Grandpa, we don't own Mega Media's news network.
00:40:23Oh.
00:40:25And Madison.
00:40:27Your brother's widow?
00:40:29Why is she getting involved with you?
00:40:31You need to send her away.
00:40:33I'll take care of that.
00:40:35As for Emma, what she said is true.
00:40:37Everything.
00:40:39What do you mean by that?
00:40:41I was too drunk and I used her.
00:40:43I was never in love with her.
00:40:45Now she's trying to get back at me.
00:40:47You idiot.
00:40:49You have no reputation.
00:40:51I married a woman I didn't love for you.
00:40:55After everything I have built for this family,
00:41:00you perverted it all
00:41:02because you couldn't keep it in your pants.
00:41:14Hello?
00:41:16Mr. Harland, I've found some information
00:41:17about what happened four years ago.
00:41:20Okay, I'm coming.
00:41:36Somebody help!
00:41:38Get away from her!
00:41:40Who are you? What's your name?
00:41:42James Harland.
00:41:44Feeling brave, huh?
00:41:46Oh.
00:42:00James Harland.
00:42:07Who is it?
00:42:09Emma, it's me.
00:42:16How's my girlfriend?
00:42:24I'm your girlfriend?
00:42:26That's what it says on the news.
00:42:29Shit.
00:42:31Oh, baby, you're running a fever.
00:42:33Oh, shit, we've got to get you to a doctor.
00:42:37Take your meds. Get some rest.
00:42:40Okay, Dr. Watson.
00:42:42I'm sorry.
00:42:43Dr. Watson.
00:42:45Oh, shit.
00:42:47You okay?
00:42:49These people are watching.
00:42:51Nobody's watching. It's fine.
00:42:53Help! Help!
00:43:00Help! Help!
00:43:02Fuck!
00:43:04Emma, look what you did to Madison!
00:43:06What the fuck are you doing? Let's go!
00:43:08Let's go!
00:43:10What did I just do to her, Wes?
00:43:11This is in response to Madison's suicide attempt.
00:43:13So what did Ms. Harland mean by that statement just now?
00:43:15Is Madison's self-harm related to you?
00:43:17Just give Ms. Peterson her space.
00:43:19Space? You're not an ostrich.
00:43:21Fuck off!
00:43:23I'm not getting space today, sir!
00:43:25This will make you feel better.
00:43:32Emma, did you hear Madison tried to kill herself?
00:43:35Ethan, what are you doing here?
00:43:39What is he doing here?
00:43:41Okay.
00:43:44Wait, the suicide attempt didn't affect the company's stock prices, did it?
00:43:49Not yet, but the news is saying that her suicide attempt is your fault.
00:43:56But the news is saying that her suicide attempt is your fault.
00:43:59Sounds like Madison.
00:44:01This is just one of Madison's deliberate acts.
00:44:03Yeah, well, the news is saying that she tried to apologize, you turned her down, and then you told her to kill herself?
00:44:08No, I did not tell her to kill herself.
00:44:11Really?
00:44:13I didn't.
00:44:15Okay.
00:44:17All right, let me try to go clean this up before we lose any more money.
00:44:19These two office buildings, as part of our divorce agreement, are now yours.
00:44:23If you agree, sign the agreement.
00:44:26These are worth at least a billion.
00:44:28How generous.
00:44:30I'm sorry.
00:44:32I'm sorry.
00:44:34I'm sorry.
00:44:36I'm sorry.
00:44:38I'm sorry.
00:44:40I'm sorry.
00:44:42I'm sorry.
00:44:44I'm sorry.
00:44:46I'm sorry.
00:44:47How generous.
00:44:50I know you don't really want to do this.
00:44:53Do you even know why I divorced you, James?
00:44:56Why, Emma?
00:44:59Because for four years, you allowed your family to humiliate me, and you did nothing for me.
00:45:05Emma, do you think you're safe just because you're with Henry now?
00:45:09You know what? Yes, I do, actually, James.
00:45:14I do.
00:45:18Have a good day.
00:45:20Bye.
00:45:32Emma?
00:45:34What are you doing here?
00:45:39Nurse!
00:45:41Nurse!
00:45:43Madison, despite our differences, I came to reconcile.
00:45:45Reconcile?
00:45:47James offered me two buildings to finalize our divorce, so he'll be yours soon.
00:45:58So, are my hands clean in your little suicide attempt?
00:46:02Do you like my performance?
00:46:04Well, that was impressive, Madison.
00:46:07You should get an Oscar for that.
00:46:10I should get an Oscar for that.
00:46:13Wow.
00:46:18Thank you for admitting to your little scheme.
00:46:23I wonder what James will think of that.
00:46:26Should you record me?
00:46:28Yeah.
00:46:30Enjoy your flowers, Madison.
00:46:33Emma, you bitch!
00:46:36You bitch!
00:46:43James!
00:46:46I heard everything you said.
00:46:49It's impressive.
00:46:51Is it true?
00:46:53No.
00:46:55James, no.
00:46:56Enough! Do you think I'm stupid?
00:46:58No, honey. I don't think you're stupid.
00:47:03You told your older brother you'd take care of me.
00:47:06What do you want from me, Madison?
00:47:10I want you to marry me.
00:47:12That's impossible.
00:47:13Why is it impossible?
00:47:14Because I don't fucking like you.
00:47:15Emma doesn't love you! I love you!
00:47:18I'm having someone send you abroad.
00:47:20Don't ever come back.
00:47:22No, please. No.
00:47:24James, don't leave me.
00:47:26James!
00:47:28Please don't send me away. James!
00:47:30James!
00:47:32Alright.
00:47:34Alright, let's see it.
00:47:36Okay. Here it is.
00:47:39A jewelry store?
00:47:40Aren't we at the ring-buying stage already?
00:47:43I like it.
00:47:45You are jumping to conclusions.
00:47:48No, this storefront is for sale and...
00:47:51I want to buy it.
00:47:54The Winston Group is launching a jewelry brand.
00:47:57I'm in charge.
00:47:58You got me excited for nothing.
00:48:01Well, I need your help in deciding if it's a good location.
00:48:05If you're looking for great locations, Lawson's Group got plenty of them.
00:48:08There's a reason I chose this one.
00:48:11Oh boy.
00:48:13I knew it.
00:48:15So how are you doing here?
00:48:17Well, this store is up for sale and...
00:48:20I want to buy it.
00:48:22Oh, right next to Madison's jewelry store.
00:48:24You're doing this on purpose.
00:48:26You want to buy this store?
00:48:28It's hilarious.
00:48:30Well, what's hilarious is how nobody buys your jewelry brand, Madison.
00:48:33Once my store is actually here,
00:48:35maybe they'll notice yours.
00:48:36Do you really think that with your background,
00:48:38you can compete with Madison's family brand?
00:48:40Everyone knows Everton's family business is struggling.
00:48:43Actually, we're about to launch a new collection tomorrow.
00:48:46It's going to be a big hit.
00:48:48Love to see that.
00:48:52Well, you're more than welcome to come.
00:48:54Bring your girlfriend, too.
00:48:56Maybe it'll open her eyes.
00:48:59I'm Madison.
00:49:07Hello, and welcome everyone
00:49:10to Everton's Winter Jewelry Launch.
00:49:15My name is Madison Everton,
00:49:18the Director of Everton Jewelry.
00:49:21Now, to begin,
00:49:23let's take a sneak peek
00:49:25into the Winter Snowberry Collection.
00:49:28Everyone, please turn your attention to me.
00:49:33Isn't she beautiful?
00:49:34Turn to me.
00:49:36Isn't that the wife of the Winston Group CEO?
00:49:39Yeah, that's the famous lawyer Mary Winston.
00:49:41Miss Winston, what are you doing here?
00:49:44I'm the legal representative
00:49:46of the renowned jewelry brand, Selena.
00:49:48Everton has consistently copied her designs,
00:49:52and this year is no exception.
00:49:55The Snow Fairy Collection
00:49:57is a shameless plagiarism
00:50:00of Selena's Ice Age series from 2017
00:50:04when she was just an emerging designer.
00:50:09This is absolutely nonsense.
00:50:11Really?
00:50:13I do have some comparison images
00:50:16you can judge for yourselves.
00:50:29Are you kidding me?
00:50:31They're identical?
00:50:34How did they do that?
00:50:36Madison, what are your thoughts on this?
00:50:39Is what Mrs. Winston said true?
00:50:42Does Mr. James Harlan know about this?
00:50:44I have no idea what's going on.
00:50:46This must be a mistake.
00:50:48I will have the designers fired immediately.
00:50:56Our next model.
00:50:58Stink.
00:51:00Wow, you're really going all out
00:51:02for your new employer.
00:51:04What are you talking about?
00:51:06The Winston Group is using dirty tactics
00:51:08to suppress Everton for their jewelry brand.
00:51:10I see you got Mary Winston into this.
00:51:12Impressive.
00:51:14You saw it for yourself.
00:51:16She had undeniable evidence of Everton's plagiarism.
00:51:18Emma.
00:51:20I want to apologize.
00:51:22For what?
00:51:24Why are you so obsessed with my girlfriend?
00:51:26Henry, just give us a minute.
00:51:28You've been making a lot of headlines lately.
00:51:30I thought of a really good one for tomorrow.
00:51:31CEO of Harlan Group harasses ex-wife after divorce.
00:51:36Henry, stop.
00:51:38I'm going to use the restroom.
00:51:45Stay away from her.
00:51:47Never.
00:51:49My God!
00:51:51That was so humiliating!
00:51:53The Winston Group is launching their own brand
00:51:55so they came after us.
00:51:57Ruthless!
00:51:59Did you really not know about the plagiarism?
00:52:01How would I know?
00:52:03I was abroad!
00:52:05Yeah, you were.
00:52:07Okay, Emma's not going to get away with this.
00:52:09What are you planning?
00:52:11Don't worry, this will never lead back to us.
00:52:23Once she agrees, just get her to change into the dress.
00:52:26What if she refuses?
00:52:28Just apologize to her.
00:52:29Okay, well, don't make it obvious.
00:52:31She'll notice.
00:52:33Yeah, no, I'll cut it discreetly on the threads on the straps.
00:52:38Where have you been?
00:52:40James was about to throw punches.
00:52:42Henry, I have to tell you something.
00:52:44The girls were going to throw light on my dress
00:52:46and they freaked a dress for me to wear.
00:52:48Seriously?
00:52:50Yes.
00:52:52Just play along.
00:52:54Emma, Henry!
00:52:56Thank you so much for coming to my launch.
00:52:57Madison, thanks for inviting us.
00:52:59Your jewelry was beautiful today.
00:53:01Would have been even better if it wasn't copied.
00:53:03I know, that designer.
00:53:05I'm going to have her fired immediately.
00:53:07Come on, let's drink!
00:53:15No!
00:53:17Oh my god, Emma, your dress!
00:53:19Chloe, you've got to be careful.
00:53:21You just ruined Emma's dress.
00:53:23I'm sorry, I tripped on the carpet.
00:53:25I have a spare dress upstairs.
00:53:27You can wear it.
00:53:29Oh, come on.
00:53:44Look how beautiful this dress is.
00:53:47It looks so good on you.
00:53:49You should definitely wear it.
00:53:53No, I want to wear your dress.
00:53:57What did you say?
00:54:00It would look better on my complexion.
00:54:03You want me to take this dress off to give to you?
00:54:08I mean, you ruined my dress.
00:54:10I think it's only fair if I can borrow yours.
00:54:14Like hell I will.
00:54:16Fine, then I guess I will tell James about your little pregnancy lie secret.
00:54:21Excuse me?
00:54:23You know, the fact that you were never actually pregnant?
00:54:27I knew that you were never pregnant.
00:54:31I had a miscarriage.
00:54:33Okay, the doctor can vouch for me.
00:54:35Dr. Ferguson.
00:54:37He was arrested for malpractice.
00:54:39The police found a $100,000 transfer from you to him during their investigation.
00:54:45You're lying.
00:54:47You bribed Dr. Ferguson.
00:54:49He confessed to the police, and the police wanted to press charges against you.
00:54:53But I told them not to.
00:54:55But if you don't wear this dress, I might change my mind.
00:55:05Henry?
00:55:07That dress didn't fit, so Madison let me wear hers.
00:55:11Madison, I didn't expect you to be so generous.
00:55:15Let's go.
00:55:17Madison?
00:55:19What's going on? Why are you wearing that dress?
00:55:21I need to get out of this place now.
00:55:22Go find me another.
00:55:29I am pleased to announce the introduction of Emma, the new jewelry brand for Winston.
00:55:35And to help us with this endeavor, we've invited internationally renowned founder of the Selena brand, Emma Peterson.
00:55:44Emma has taken a four-year hiatus from design, but she joins us with some great new ideas and great new designs.
00:55:51Emma?
00:55:54Hi, I'm Emma Peterson.
00:55:57Selena is the brand that I founded during my time studying jewelry design.
00:56:01And now I am launching a new brand under my own name, and I hope to continue to receive all of your love and support.
00:56:08Your girlfriend's amazing, unless she found it sitting up.
00:56:12Why didn't I know that?
00:56:14Clearly, you didn't care enough to ask.
00:56:17Emma, I need to talk to you.
00:56:20James, let go of me!
00:56:22No!
00:56:23I can't believe she was behind Selena this entire time.
00:56:27I need to get out of this fucking dress.
00:56:30James!
00:56:32James!
00:56:34James!
00:56:36James!
00:56:38James!
00:56:42I won't, not until you listen to what I have to say.
00:56:44You heard her. Let go, James.
00:56:45Henry, this is between me and Emma. Stay out of it.
00:56:47She's your ex-wife, remember?
00:56:49I just want to know about this boy in your diary.
00:56:54How did you get my diary?
00:56:57When's Emma gonna come grab all her shit?
00:56:59Who gave you the right to mess with her fools?
00:57:03God.
00:57:05You might find this interesting.
00:57:08It's a diary.
00:57:10In her speech, she's secretly been in love with the same guy since she was a teenager.
00:57:14She's still writing about him.
00:57:17It's crazy, right? That drawing kind of looks like you.
00:57:20Can I just read a passage for you right now?
00:57:22Emma, let's just go.
00:57:23Henry!
00:57:28Emma, let's just go.
00:57:29Henry!
00:57:34Henry, I need to talk to James alone.
00:57:38This is a drawing of me, right?
00:57:40The boy who you've secretly loved since you were 16?
00:57:43The boy who protected you?
00:57:45Is this me?
00:57:46You are so self-absorbed, James.
00:57:48You think I liked you for ten years.
00:57:49Then tell me, Emma.
00:57:50Why would you draw a picture of a person you weren't in love with?
00:57:57It's not you.
00:57:58That can't be you.
00:58:00I'm not a fool. I know you love me.
00:58:03We are done, James.
00:58:04Fine, Emma.
00:58:05Emma, I don't mind turning this over to the media.
00:58:09Let's let the public decide who your secret lover from your past is.
00:58:18I don't mind turning this over to the media.
00:58:21Let's let the public decide who your secret lover from your past is.
00:58:25You disgust me!
00:58:29Disgust? You loved me.
00:58:31Yes, I was not a good husband.
00:58:33I should have protected you.
00:58:34I should have cared about you.
00:58:35I should have loved you.
00:58:36But I love you now, and I need you to give me another chance.
00:58:43James, don't embarrass yourself anymore.
00:58:49Emma.
00:58:58I'm keeping the diary.
00:59:04I'm keeping the diary.
00:59:12Who does James think he is?
00:59:14He is so heartless.
00:59:19My heart is full.
00:59:22You don't believe me?
00:59:24Open it up and see.
00:59:34Open it.
00:59:47Grandpa?
00:59:49What are you doing here?
00:59:50Are you feeling better?
00:59:51James, you have to remarry Emma immediately.
00:59:59What are you talking about?
01:00:00I said you must remarry Emma.
01:00:03Haven't you always disliked her?
01:00:05She's the new vice president of the Winston Group.
01:00:07Grandpa, she's not worthy of our family.
01:00:11We cannot let her be with that Henry.
01:00:15You realize we're running a business here, right?
01:00:18Have you even looked at our stock prices lately?
01:00:20It's all you care about are the stock prices.
01:00:25Frank, get in here.
01:00:27Mr. Harland?
01:00:28Have somebody track Henry Lawson.
01:00:31And find evidence of him being with another woman.
01:00:37Go.
01:00:50Hey, handsome. Missed me?
01:00:54Lily, we're not kids anymore.
01:00:56What?
01:00:58How are your parents?
01:00:59They're good.
01:01:02So, you and Emma?
01:01:04We have a thing going on.
01:01:06Is that why you came looking for me?
01:01:08I'm here to help.
01:01:09No need.
01:01:10Isn't she your long lost first love?
01:01:12I'm going to go meet her at the club right now.
01:01:14When are you going to tell her the truth?
01:01:16That you've been in love with her since childhood?
01:01:24Let's go.
01:01:32Hmm.
01:01:37As Peter said, Mr. Lawson was caught being kissed by a girl.
01:01:51Well, I'm not his girlfriend.
01:01:53So, he's free to be with whoever he wants to be with.
01:01:58Jerk.
01:02:02Mr. Harland?
01:02:04Henry Lawson is seen with another woman last night.
01:02:19You ever seen these?
01:02:24I've already sent them to her secretary.
01:02:27I hear Miss Peterson is now at the Nightfall.
01:02:30Okay.
01:02:36Hi, I'm Emma.
01:02:38Mr. Lawson's friend.
01:02:41Emma.
01:02:42Nice to meet you.
01:02:44I'm Lily.
01:02:45Should we grab a drink?
01:02:47Oh, no thanks.
01:02:48I actually have a big day tomorrow.
01:02:50Oh, where are you going?
01:02:51It's okay.
01:02:55I was really worried about you.
01:02:58I was right.
01:03:00Right about what?
01:03:01She's ignoring me.
01:03:02She's holding onto my arm like there's something going on.
01:03:05You are changed a bit.
01:03:07How stupid are you?
01:03:08She left because she's jealous.
01:03:11Now go get her.
01:03:17Emma, I told you he wasn't sincere about you.
01:03:20James, stop!
01:03:21I am not in the mood for your input on this.
01:03:24I am not in the mood for your input right now.
01:03:26James, why are you here?
01:03:30Woo!
01:03:31I've been waiting so long to do this.
01:03:33James, stop!
01:03:34Stop, you'll kill him!
01:03:36Stop!
01:03:42Oh my God, James.
01:03:43Wake up!
01:03:44Somebody call an ambulance!
01:03:46I mean, wake up!
01:03:49Henry, wake up!
01:04:00Henry.
01:04:03Let me see your face.
01:04:07Let me see your face.
01:04:13He really got you.
01:04:15I let him win.
01:04:16I let him win.
01:04:25Henry, you have a new girlfriend.
01:04:28Emma, it's not what you think.
01:04:30She's my cousin.
01:04:32This was all her idea.
01:04:34She said if you got jealous,
01:04:36it would prove that you were interested.
01:04:40And that I should...
01:04:41And that I should...
01:04:45That you should what?
01:04:47Nothing.
01:04:51The point is,
01:04:55you got jealous.
01:04:58How could I not?
01:05:08Henry!
01:05:09How are you?
01:05:10Lily!
01:05:11Oh no.
01:05:13It's okay.
01:05:15I'll go get a coffee.
01:05:27Emma, wait!
01:05:29Emma, Emma.
01:05:32Henry has been in love with you for years.
01:05:36You can't be serious, Lily.
01:05:38I am.
01:05:40His whole Playboy reputation
01:05:42and all of those girlfriends
01:05:43were just hired artists.
01:05:45It was a publicity stunt.
01:05:46They were all from Lawson Entertainment.
01:05:53If he's always loved me, then
01:05:56why would he do that?
01:05:59Because when he found you,
01:06:01you were already married to James Harland.
01:06:11Emma,
01:06:13about last night,
01:06:15I'm sorry.
01:06:21Goodbye, James.
01:06:41I'm sorry.
01:07:07Karen Winston.
01:07:08Oh my god.
01:07:10No wonder she's skyrocketed.
01:07:11That must be her new sugar daddy.
01:07:14That's why she got the CEO position.
01:07:22Miss Peterson, have you seen this?
01:07:28Emma Peterson is Gary Winston's secret lover?
01:07:32Wow.
01:07:33This must be the doing of the Harlands.
01:07:36Get the reporters on the phone.
01:07:37We need to clean this up.
01:07:44Emma is Gary Winston's dog.
01:07:49How is that possible?
01:07:52Now you have to remarry, Emily.
01:07:57Forget it. It's impossible.
01:07:59Why?
01:08:01So we neglected her at the beginning a little bit.
01:08:04We will make it up to her and set things right.
01:08:06I've tried everything.
01:08:08She won't accept it.
01:08:09So what?
01:08:11You're just going to give up now?
01:08:13You're going soft on us, James.
01:08:14You know what we did to Emma.
01:08:16Are you even a Harlan?
01:08:20She's not blameless in this.
01:08:22Four years of marriage.
01:08:23No kids.
01:08:25We cannot let Henry Lawson
01:08:26take advantage of this situation.
01:08:29If Henry and the Winston Group combine strength,
01:08:32there will be no place for the Harlands.
01:08:36Maybe not now, but five years from now.
01:08:42Grandpa, I might have an idea, but...
01:08:44Whatever it takes, Chloe.
01:08:46You make it work,
01:08:47your brother's trust fund is yours.
01:08:52Way to go, Chloe.
01:08:54Help! Please!
01:08:56Oh, what's happening?
01:08:58Come on back now, the client's waiting.
01:09:01What do you want?
01:09:02It's really none of your business.
01:09:03I signed up for your secretary job.
01:09:05I won't sleep with your clients.
01:09:08That's not...
01:09:10If you don't leave her alone,
01:09:11I will call the police.
01:09:15I'm sorry.
01:09:18I'm sorry.
01:09:20I'm sorry.
01:09:22Are you alright?
01:09:23Yeah, I...
01:09:25I think so.
01:09:26Thank you so much.
01:09:28Yeah, no problem.
01:09:29Wait, please don't go.
01:09:31My phone, my license, my purse,
01:09:33they're all back at the hotel room.
01:09:36I'm scared to go back by myself.
01:09:40Okay, don't worry.
01:09:41I'll go with you.
01:09:42Okay.
01:09:45Is this the one?
01:09:46Yeah.
01:09:47Okay.
01:09:52Oh!
01:09:54Oh my God.
01:10:06What?
01:10:22No.
01:10:28James.
01:10:30James.
01:10:34James!
01:10:44What are you doing here?
01:10:46What are you doing here?
01:10:48I don't know.
01:10:51I don't know.
01:11:09You're so pretty.
01:11:17You're so pretty.
01:11:22James.
01:11:23James.
01:11:25Stop.
01:11:26I don't want to make the same mistake
01:11:28that we made four years ago.
01:11:41Emma!
01:11:43Emma.
01:11:44Hey.
01:11:45Hey, James.
01:11:47Okay.
01:11:49Okay.
01:11:51Can I go to you?
01:11:53No.
01:11:55God damn it, bro.
01:11:58You scared me.
01:12:00Shut up, Jake.
01:12:07Sir, I have found something out I think you may want to know.
01:12:12What did you find out?
01:12:14That night, four years ago,
01:12:16the hotel surveillance was indeed malfunctioning,
01:12:20but the bar staff remembered you.
01:12:23Chloe asked two of them to take you up to your hotel room
01:12:27because you drank too much.
01:12:30And how did I drink too much, Frank?
01:12:32I had one drink that night.
01:12:39One of the staff said that the key card Chloe gave them
01:12:41couldn't open the door.
01:12:42They had to call security to unlock it.
01:12:45And then what?
01:12:51They said there was already a woman lying in bed with you.
01:12:54When they entered the room, they had just laid you down on the bed
01:12:56when someone barged in and started taking pictures of you.
01:12:59Jesus fucking Christ.
01:13:02So you're telling me Chloe staged the entire thing?
01:13:05Sir, I am not accusing anyone,
01:13:08but you may want to get the details from Miss Chloe herself.
01:13:12Jesus fucking Christ.
01:13:21No.
01:13:26Is that okay?
01:13:29They found the girl,
01:13:31the one who was involved with the kidnapping.
01:13:34You don't deserve any of this.
01:13:44Henry, why are you so good to me?
01:13:47Henry, why are you so good to me?
01:13:49Because I...
01:13:55I'm what's best for you.
01:14:11Chloe.
01:14:12James, you scared the hell out of me.
01:14:14What really went down that night four years ago?
01:14:18What night?
01:14:19I don't remember.
01:14:20Enough.
01:14:21I had one drink that night.
01:14:22So how did I end up in that hotel room?
01:14:25I don't know, maybe Emma did it.
01:14:27The hotel staff said it was you
01:14:29who provided the room number and keycard.
01:14:32Okay, look, it was Madison's idea.
01:14:34She was so desperate to marry you,
01:14:36she had me slip something into your drink.
01:14:38Why was Emma in that room?
01:14:40Because those two idiots got the room number wrong.
01:14:42Okay, once I noticed,
01:14:43the reporters that they had hired
01:14:45had already taken the photos and released them.
01:14:47You scheming bitch.
01:14:49You drugged me and Emma again.
01:14:52James, I'm getting the trust fund, okay?
01:14:55And you're gonna have to remarry Emma
01:14:57because once I release those photos
01:14:59of you two in the hotel room,
01:15:01you're gonna have to remarry her
01:15:02just like you did four years ago.
01:15:05Woodson, I'm here to plead for James.
01:15:12This is compensation for Emma.
01:15:15Don't bother, she won't care about that.
01:15:17During Emma's marriage,
01:15:19it was the fault of the Harlan family
01:15:22that she suffered.
01:15:24Now I can tell you,
01:15:25those situations would never happen again
01:15:27after they remarry.
01:15:28Remarry?
01:15:29It's not a remarry.
01:15:31They've just gotten too messy
01:15:32with all the media attention.
01:15:34I can agree to that.
01:15:35Yeah.
01:15:36And they still have feelings for each other.
01:15:39I don't think Emma would have gotten a divorce
01:15:41just on a whim.
01:15:45Tell me,
01:15:46what do you think of Henry Lawson?
01:15:50New money.
01:15:51Yeah, new money.
01:15:52As new as it comes.
01:15:54I don't think he's worthy of Emma.
01:15:56I don't think he's worthy of her.
01:15:58As new as it comes.
01:16:00I don't think he's worthy of Emma.
01:16:02She deserves more than a playboy
01:16:04with no family background.
01:16:07You can't trust a man like that.
01:16:10I trusted you four years ago.
01:16:12I saved your family's name.
01:16:15Yes.
01:16:16Yes, you did.
01:16:18And I'm here now
01:16:20asking you to save it again.
01:16:24I have another meeting shortly, Mr. Harlan.
01:16:27Perhaps we can finish this at another time.
01:16:31Absolutely.
01:16:33Frank,
01:16:35spread the news.
01:16:37Emma expecting James' baby.
01:16:51These Harlans have no boundaries.
01:16:55Who would spread a rumor that I'm pregnant with James?
01:16:58As much as I hate James,
01:17:00I don't think it was him.
01:17:13Henry,
01:17:14it would have been so much better
01:17:16if it was you who saved me back then.
01:17:25The rumor about my pregnancy,
01:17:28was that an attempt to bring me back to you?
01:17:31Emma,
01:17:32as much as I want you back,
01:17:34that wasn't me.
01:17:36I just want to apologize.
01:17:42Well, in that case,
01:17:44I want a grand wedding,
01:17:46and I want you to be my wife.
01:17:49And I want you to marry James.
01:17:51Well, in that case,
01:17:53I want a grand wedding,
01:17:54and I want you to invite all the socialites in the city.
01:17:57Are you serious?
01:17:59Consider it the debt that you owe me.
01:18:02But why?
01:18:04Because I can't keep living in all this scandal.
01:18:07Neither can you.
01:18:15I guess I'm willing to give you a second chance.
01:18:17Emma, I...
01:18:19I owe you too much.
01:18:21I will spend the rest of my life repaying you.
01:18:25Well, in that case,
01:18:26I want the wedding by the end of the month.
01:18:31Emma, this time I promise,
01:18:33I will cherish you and protect you.
01:18:48Frank,
01:18:50I need the best wedding planner and dress designer.
01:18:54Emma and I are getting remarried.
01:18:57I don't know.
01:18:58You're going to need to think of a solution.
01:19:00I'm stuck here. I can't help you.
01:19:07Grandpa, do we really need to let that woman back into our family?
01:19:11Can you think of a more suitable candidate?
01:19:14Can you think of a more suitable candidate?
01:19:18The Winstons are the wealthiest family in the area.
01:19:21Well, does this mean I have to live in the same house with her again?
01:19:24Chloe,
01:19:25I already promised you James' trust fund.
01:19:29But if you mess this up,
01:19:31I'll cut you out of the will.
01:19:39James is marrying Emma again.
01:19:45No.
01:19:47No, I'm going to fucking kill her.
01:19:53Long time no see, Madison.
01:19:55How dare you show up here?
01:19:57I came here to reconcile.
01:20:00Emma Peterson, there is nothing to be said between us.
01:20:06James and I's wedding is a...
01:20:09What did you come here to say?
01:20:11What did you come here to say?
01:20:13You get James and I get nothing?
01:20:16Quite the opposite.
01:20:18I want to give you James.
01:20:22You mean...
01:20:39Who is it?
01:20:40It's Henry.
01:20:42Can I come in?
01:20:44Sure.
01:20:56Are you really getting back together with James?
01:21:05What are you doing here?
01:21:06Have you been here all night?
01:21:11Take this.
01:21:13What is it?
01:21:14It's an island.
01:21:15I bought it yesterday.
01:21:17Consider it a wedding gift.
01:21:23Henry.
01:21:25What do I have to do to make you love me?
01:21:30I have to marry James.
01:21:32I can't marry you.
01:21:33It would...
01:21:35It would be...
01:21:36I have to marry James.
01:21:38I can't marry you.
01:21:39It would...
01:21:41It would bring more scandal.
01:21:45I understand.
01:21:49Here.
01:21:53Keep it.
01:22:02Henry.
01:22:24Let's go.
01:22:26Henry, aren't you going to tell Emma you like her?
01:22:28Why? She seems pretty determined.
01:22:30Because you've been in love with her for God knows how long.
01:22:33She still loves James.
01:22:37Fine. I'll tell her.
01:22:39Lily!
01:22:40Even though I hate James, I still want Emma to be happy.
01:22:52Ladies and gentlemen,
01:22:54please rise for the entrance of the bride.
01:23:07James.
01:23:17Didn't James dislike Emma?
01:23:19Why did he change so drastically?
01:23:21I'm going to make you happy this time.
01:23:23I'm not going to lose you again.
01:23:25Do you, James, take Emma as your lawful wedded wife?
01:23:31Oh my God, the wedding dress is beautiful.
01:23:33I heard they flew in a designer from Italy to design it.
01:23:36To faithfully love her today, tomorrow,
01:23:40and for as long as the two of you shall live.
01:23:43Yes, I do.
01:23:45Emma, don't marry him.
01:23:47Henry, what are you doing?
01:23:48No, I object this marriage.
01:23:51James, I mean...
01:23:52Madison?
01:23:56Where's Emma? Why are you here?
01:23:58What's going on? Where's Emma?
01:24:00Isn't that James' sister-in-law?
01:24:02What's going on?
01:24:03Madison, what on earth is happening?
01:24:08I'm here.
01:24:11I'm going to clarify something today.
01:24:13Emma, what is going on?
01:24:15James, you need to hear what I'm about to tell you.
01:24:20Everyone here believes that I caused Madison's miscarriage.
01:24:25But...
01:24:29She wasn't even pregnant.
01:24:31Is what she's saying true?
01:24:34No, she's lying.
01:24:36This is the statement from the emergency doctor from that day.
01:24:39Emma, what is going on?
01:24:42I'm getting my revenge, James.
01:24:47See? She doesn't love you.
01:24:49Madison, what more have you been lying to me about?
01:24:52Nothing.
01:24:53Chloe told me everything.
01:24:55You drugged me that night to try to force me into marrying you.
01:24:58I did that because I love you.
01:25:00James, I did that because I love you.
01:25:02Emma, I love you. I don't want to lose you again.
01:25:05I have tried to move you with love for four years, James.
01:25:09You just thought I was after your money.
01:25:14Emma, you've ruined my life.
01:25:16You racy bitch, go to hell!
01:25:18Oh my God!
01:25:19What are you doing?
01:25:20Somebody call 911 now!
01:25:22What did you do?
01:25:25Are you okay?
01:25:31Emma, I've loved you since the first time I saw you.
01:25:35I'll never forget that day.
01:25:38High ponytail, rolling red dress.
01:25:41You were the one who saved me when I was 16.
01:25:44It was always me.
01:25:46I kept it a secret from you ever since.
01:25:48Why? Why did you do that?
01:25:50Why did you tell me that you were James Harland?
01:25:53It's come from nothing, Emma.
01:25:56I've known James since we were kids.
01:25:58His family's name holds a lot of weight.
01:26:00Because I'm your dad.
01:26:02Why didn't you tell me earlier?
01:26:04Because I wanted you to love me for the rest of it.
01:26:06Not the pain.
01:26:09Tell me now, do you believe I truly love you?
01:26:12You're a big dummy.
01:26:14I'm sorry.
01:26:21Emma Peterson,
01:26:24will you marry me?
01:26:28Yes.
01:26:38Yes.
01:26:40I will. I will.
01:26:42Help me up.
01:26:44Not right now.
01:26:46We've got to get you to the hospital.
01:26:48I'll be fine.
01:26:50I'm really...
01:26:52Wait.
01:26:54Father.
01:26:56Let's run it again.
01:26:58Okay.
01:27:00Do you,
01:27:02Henry Lawson,
01:27:04take Emma Peterson
01:27:06as your lawful wedded wife?
01:27:08I do.
01:27:10And do you,
01:27:12Emma Peterson, take Henry Lawson
01:27:14as your
01:27:16lawful wedded husband?
01:27:18I do.
01:27:22Well, kiss the bride.
01:27:26Kiss the bride.
