00:00:00I have a gift for you. Jessica, you have inherited this mansion, along with your father's business
00:00:13empire and assets worth over a billion dollars. I just need a signature from you. Oh, and
00:00:18a hundred and five million dollars in cash. We're rich! Let me hold on to you. You know,
00:00:29my whole life I grew up in foster care, moving from place to place, and now I finally have
00:00:37a place that I can call home. It was real great to win the jackpot. Now my only wish
00:00:41is to reunite with my mother. You bastard child! You will never reunite with your mother.
00:00:48We made sure that that whore is gone forever. My mother is gone because of you? Well, we
00:00:54had a little help from James Thornton, the most powerful man in the Thornton family.
00:00:59Time for you to go back to your poor little country, sis. Yes, ma'am. I'm a CIS. Your
00:01:05visa expired years ago. You're being deported. What? No, there must be some mistake. Adrian,
00:01:10didn't you help me file my immigration paperwork? Whoops. I guess I screwed up. What? Hey, baby.
00:01:19Adrian, are you cheating on me? With her? Choose the right side, babe. You'll never win against them.
00:01:25It's true. According to the terms of the will, non-citizens are not eligible to inherit the
00:01:32estate. Everything will pass through your next of kin, Lisa Ann Kristen Miller. You thought you
00:01:38could get rich overnight? Keep dreaming. Seriously? Bon voyage, have CIS.
00:01:48The boss is searching. They're about to deport a woman named Jessica Miller. Jessica Miller? It's her.
00:02:06Oh, thank God you're alive. She's so beautiful and kind. The girl I've always dreamed of.
00:02:11She saved my life once. I owe her.
00:02:13Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait. Jessica? Do I know you? She doesn't remember me.
00:02:27I'm Daniel. You're a lawyer. Just pretend we know each other. I can get you out of here.
00:02:31We've spoken to the judge and Miss Miller should be released immediately.
00:02:36We can deport her. She is about to marry a US citizen.
00:02:40Who's the lucky guy? I am. I'll marry her.
00:02:50A fake marriage won't save her. Our marriage is real. Yeah, a hundred percent real. Prove it then.
00:03:02That's it? You call that a kiss?
00:03:10Need more proof, officer? Look, this guy is a lawyer to some of the most important families in town.
00:03:21And if you don't let her go, then he'll make sure you lose your damn job. Fine, you can have her.
00:03:26Thank you, officer.
00:03:31Guys, I think we're good. It's not over.
00:03:35We'll be checking your marital status and conducting interviews.
00:03:40There are a few very specific requirements you should know.
00:03:43Make sure you two are staying in the same house and sleeping in the same bed or it's game over.
00:03:51Well, thank you for the rescue. Oh, it's no problem. But, um, Daniel,
00:04:03would you marry me? Oh, Jessica, I've waited for this moment for five years.
00:04:09I mean, it would only be a contract marriage. But once I get my green card,
00:04:15I'll inherit my father's business empire and I'll share half of it with you.
00:04:20Even your misunderstanding looks so cute. I only want you, Jessica.
00:04:24But before I get my green card, you're going to have to help me deal with my
00:04:28stepsister and her mom. They're trying to get rid of me and they've already stolen
00:04:33my fortune and they made my mother disappear. Deal. What? That's it?
00:04:44This literally stands for loyalties and new beginnings. Something that I want with you.
00:04:50Now I know it's rushed, but I promise you I will buy you a proper ring soon.
00:04:58Now on, let's make every Christmas a memory.
00:05:20You can't do this, Jess. It's OK. Just wait here. I'll handle it.
00:05:29What? Why are you helping that girl? Kristen Miller is our ally and she wants
00:05:35her the hell out of this picture. It's too late, Dad. We already got married.
00:05:39Are you insane? Did you forget you're supposed to marry Ashley?
00:05:45Daniel Thornton. My mother is gone because of you?
00:05:49Well, we had a little help from James Thornton, the most powerful man in the Thornton family.
00:05:56I recognize that face from the newspaper. That was James Thornton from the Thornton family,
00:06:02the family responsible for my mother's disappearance.
00:06:09Stop telling me what I can and cannot do. She saved my life. I owe it to her.
00:06:13Roll the hell up, Daniel. You need to remember your position as the heir to our family.
00:06:18And you need to divorce that girl. Now I'm doing this to clean your mess up.
00:06:23Just leave us alone.
00:06:31Sorry about that. Is your name Daniel Thornton?
00:06:37Yeah. The Thornton family are responsible for the disappearance of my mother. I have
00:06:43been searching for her my entire life. Jess, I can explain.
00:06:49I'm not married. Wait, wait, wait, Jess, Jess.
00:06:52I'm not who you think I am. I have nothing to do with that family.
00:06:54Oh, really? Because your name is right here on the marriage stick.
00:06:59I share the last name as Thornton, and I am not one of them.
00:07:02Thornton is a common name, just an ordinary girl.
00:07:05Really? Well, I don't believe you. I saw you talking to James Thornton.
00:07:09Is he your father?
00:07:12Is he your father? No, he's not my father.
00:07:15He was threatening to drive you out of the country,
00:07:17and I was not going to have anything to do with it.
00:07:18Jess, I'm on your side. You're not one of them. I'm sorry.
00:07:26It's okay. Don't worry about it.
00:07:32Well, you have a nice apartment.
00:07:35Whoa. Is that your Labrador?
00:07:38It looks exactly like mine. I got mine as a Christmas present when I was nine.
00:07:42No way. I got mine as a Christmas present when I was nine. That's crazy.
00:07:49Jess, we're going to have to sleep in the same room together just in case immigration ambush us.
00:07:53Yeah, but are you sure you're okay sleeping on the carpet? I mean, you've done so much
00:07:58for me already, and I just— Jess, please, I insist. We made a deal,
00:08:02remember? I also want to thank you for giving me the chance to get rich.
00:08:09It's okay, Daniel.
00:08:18Jess, what's going on?
00:08:41No. No, no, no. I was just passing by and just—do you need anything?
00:08:48I was joking. Yeah, could you pass me a towel? It's just hanging out next to the door.
00:08:55Yeah, sure, sure.
00:08:59Thanks.
00:09:08Oh my god.
00:09:09What?
00:09:10I just got fired.
00:09:11Wait, Jess, let me go with you.
00:09:29Sam, please, don't fire me.
00:09:31I'm sorry, Jess, but your immigration issue put us in a tough spot.
00:09:36I worked for this company for years.
00:09:39I'm sorry, Jess. There's nothing I can do. I'm sorry.
00:09:49Look who's here. Someone who just got fired. This suits you.
00:09:57It was you. I should have known you were behind this.
00:10:00I'm not going to let you stay here and ruin things. I'm going to take away everything you have.
00:10:05You just made a big mistake, sir.
00:10:11Who are you?
00:10:12My name is Daniel Thornton, son of James Thornton, the chairman of Thornton Enterprise.
00:10:18Oh, Mr. Thornton, welcome. What brings you here?
00:10:25Well, I have some good news for you. Jessica Miller, she's just closed a billion dollar deal.
00:10:33Take a look.
00:10:43Oh, my God.
00:10:48It's real.
00:10:50Absolutely. With her hard work and dedication, she's made this possible.
00:10:55It's a real shame you're going to lose such a valuable employee.
00:10:58Oh, Mr. Thornton, I have made a huge mistake. Jessica will stay.
00:11:07Good. And make sure nobody knows we had this conversation.
00:11:16Jessica, you should have told me.
00:11:22What are you talking about, son?
00:11:24Jessica, you secured a huge deal for the company.
00:11:29Did you not just fire her?
00:11:30I changed my mind. Jessica's staying. Actually, she's being promoted to sales manager.
00:11:39Can't afford to lose someone as valuable as like her.
00:11:42Great. Thanks, Sam.
00:11:45This is not over.
00:11:50I can't believe it. Jessica kept her job and she gets promoted.
00:11:54Don't worry, Lisa. I just spoke with James Thornton and he had the lawyer
00:11:58change the will in our favor. Jessica will get nothing.
00:12:02Oh, my God. That's fantastic.
00:12:15No way.
00:12:15Jessica, how's work? Did you get your job back?
00:12:25Daniel, I need a lawyer.
00:12:33Well, look who decided to show up.
00:12:37Too bad for you, Jess. Turns out daddy's will left you nothing.
00:12:41I knew all along Robert wouldn't leave anything for this little pathetic...
00:12:46Bastard child. You are out of luck.
00:12:49Well, that's a lie. You showed me the will and I signed the documents.
00:12:54I'm sorry, Jessica. I've just discovered a revised will that supports Kristen and Lisa's claims.
00:13:04Who is this?
00:13:05He's my lawyer and a damn good one.
00:13:09You know, Jess, I didn't realize you had enough money to pay for a fancy little lawyer.
00:13:13You sleep with him?
00:13:14No.
00:13:15Patrick, can I have a word with you outside?
00:13:18Talk all you want. It won't change anything.
00:13:28All right, Patrick. I'm going to keep this short and sweet.
00:13:31I know you changed the will to favor Kristen and Lisa.
00:13:33I know what you're talking about, Mr. Thornton. The revised will's solid.
00:13:37Ted found an email exchange with my father. Here, take a look.
00:13:42You've been caught, Patrick.
00:13:43Honor of the will, I'll report you to the Bar Association.
00:13:46You'll lose your license and any chance of practicing law or gain.
00:13:49That goes against your father's wishes.
00:13:51You don't understand the position he put me in.
00:13:53I'll deal with my father. Don't you worry about that.
00:13:56You just worry about doing the right thing.
00:14:03Um, this revised will is a fake. The original will's stamped.
00:14:06What the hell are you doing?
00:14:08He's doing the right thing.
00:14:11Jessica, you've gotten your inheritance back. Congratulations.
00:14:16Oh my God.
00:14:18Patrick, do what you are supposed to do or James will make sure you face the consequences.
00:14:26Don't listen to him, Patrick. I'll deal with James Thornton.
00:14:29Who the hell do you think you are?
00:14:31James Thornton is one of the most powerful men in this town.
00:14:35I sure can. Isn't that right, Patrick?
00:14:38Yes. The original will stands.
00:14:40No, you are crazy.
00:14:42No, I'm not. According to the original will, Jessica stands to inherit this mansion.
00:14:47Kristen, you're out.
00:14:49I think you two should leave.
00:14:50You homewrecker. Just like your mother.
00:14:54I will not allow violence.
00:14:57I didn't come here to argue over a house and assets.
00:15:01I came here to be recognized as an actual member of this family.
00:15:05It's easy for you to say you're getting everything.
00:15:07You don't know how lucky you are, Lisa.
00:15:09You grew up with a father who loved you.
00:15:11I have none.
00:15:12And you took my mother away from me and I still don't know where she is.
00:15:18You two don't deserve this mansion.
00:15:20And I would rather give it away to charity than see the two of you living it.
00:15:31You two should pack your things up.
00:15:33You have one week to leave this house.
00:15:40What the hell were you thinking?
00:15:44Sabotaging my plan?
00:15:45I was just doing the right thing.
00:15:47The right thing? Going against me?
00:15:50Kristen Miller has got no power anymore. Her game is over.
00:15:54I'm sure you didn't come all this way just to argue with me.
00:15:57So what do you want?
00:15:58I just want Jessica to get her mom back.
00:16:03Interesting.
00:16:07What's in it for me?
00:16:08Once Jessica gets her mom back, I'll do whatever you want.
00:16:12Whatever I want? Like what exactly?
00:16:16I'll marry Ashley.
00:16:18You'll marry Ashley?
00:16:21Yeah.
00:16:21You're willing to do that?
00:16:23Yeah, I am.
00:16:25But only if she's reunited with her mother.
00:16:29Okay, deal.
00:16:32I'll make the arrangements.
00:16:34So you're really in love with this one, huh?
00:16:36Yeah, I am.
00:16:41Sure hope she's worth it.
00:16:43She is.
00:16:47What's wrong?
00:16:49We have a guest.
00:16:52Mr. Thornton, good to see you again.
00:16:55Interview time.
00:16:57Great.
00:17:00When did you two meet?
00:17:02We met at a friend's party two years ago.
00:17:04What do you say, Jessica?
00:17:08Oh, yeah, yeah.
00:17:10Interesting.
00:17:12And when did you decide to get married?
00:17:14Eight months ago.
00:17:16Six months or eight months? Which one is it?
00:17:18Yeah, eight months ago.
00:17:19Sorry, I just...
00:17:20Sorry, I'm always getting mixed up.
00:17:23Sure, easy mistake to make.
00:17:26And what's your anniversary date?
00:17:28March 15th.
00:17:30March 15th?
00:17:32All right, thank you.
00:17:36Uh, that's it?
00:17:38Yes, Mr. Thornton.
00:17:40I have everything I need.
00:17:41I'll report back to the judges.
00:17:45Oh, wait, uh, this.
00:17:49How did we do in there?
00:17:53It was pretty bad.
00:17:56Look, I'm the son of James Thornton.
00:18:00I know who you are.
00:18:02Uh, okay.
00:18:05You want to bribe me?
00:18:08Yes.
00:18:09I can't be bribed.
00:18:10Here's one million dollars.
00:18:16Two million dollars.
00:18:18Right.
00:18:22Three million dollars.
00:18:24It's tempting, but like I said, you can't bribe me.
00:18:27Please, can you just give us one more week to prepare?
00:18:30I really want to be with this woman.
00:18:32She means the world to me.
00:18:34She saved my life.
00:18:35I'm not going to take your money, but I'll give you one week.
00:18:38Make it count.
00:18:41Next time, I want to see some genuine affection between you two.
00:18:43If anything seems a bit off, your game's up.
00:18:46Of course.
00:18:47And one more thing.
00:18:49I can tell you two haven't had sex yet.
00:18:52I'm that good, Mr. Daniel.
00:18:55Don't try and fool me.
00:19:00She gave us another chance.
00:19:01Oh, thank God.
00:19:03We have one week to get our story straight.
00:19:07Daniel, you've been very, very helpful today.
00:19:25Now, I wanted to make our first Christmas special.
00:19:28So, I did a little digging and I found this.
00:19:32This tree is amazing.
00:19:39What happened?
00:19:41Let me have a look.
00:19:58Um, I have a festive gift for you two.
00:20:19Wow.
00:20:21Jess, you look gorgeous.
00:20:23And then, I told him that's not how you negotiate.
00:20:26You did it.
00:20:53This could be wrong.
00:21:12Maybe.
00:21:14Maybe not.
00:21:24And that is how you finish that.
00:21:32You're like that.
00:21:47You're stuck.
00:21:48Uh, hold on.
00:21:49I got this.
00:21:50Uh.
00:21:51Oh.
00:22:20Oh, I've seen this before in the uh, in the magazine.
00:22:50That looks like one of those um,
00:22:53fountain pen-made watches.
00:22:57Is it real?
00:22:59No.
00:23:05You wear a fake watch?
00:23:06Yeah.
00:23:16So happy, Jess.
00:23:19Yeah.
00:23:21There's also something I need to tell you about your mom.
00:23:39Oh my god.
00:23:40Did I just sleep with Daniel last night?
00:23:43I told him it would only be a contract marriage.
00:23:49Good morning.
00:23:54This is the most beautiful morning that I've ever had.
00:23:57Daniel, I'm, I'm so sorry about last night.
00:24:01It was, it wasn't supposed to happen and I promise it will never happen again.
00:24:08She didn't mean it.
00:24:09Oh, Jessica, last night was amazing.
00:24:15Yeah, Jess, uh, I get it.
00:24:17It was uh, it was a one-time thing.
00:24:22Yeah, just like, just a one-time thing.
00:24:25Yeah.
00:24:27Anyway, it's uh, your big day today.
00:24:31You're the new CEO of the Miller Empire.
00:24:34Thank you for the reminder.
00:24:39Now that you mention it, I'm really scared.
00:24:41Oh, no, Jess, I didn't mean it like that.
00:24:45Uh, what I was meant to say is, I'm gonna help.
00:24:55I don't know what to do, mother.
00:24:56That bitch is kicking us out.
00:24:57We still have a chance.
00:24:59That bastard child needs a unanimous vote from the board to be chosen as the next CEO.
00:25:04So we just need a board member to back this up.
00:25:07I will call Richard.
00:25:08Everyone respects Richard's vote and I will make sure he doesn't vote for her.
00:25:12And I'll dig up all the dirt I can find on her.
00:25:15You go, girl.
00:25:25These clothes are beautiful, but uh, very expensive.
00:25:32Like this one, that is nine thousand dollars.
00:25:37Jess, don't worry about it.
00:25:39It's on me.
00:25:40Look at it as uh, my first gift to my wife.
00:25:44Daniel, I can't let you pay for this.
00:25:46Look, Jess, you're gonna be a CEO, which means you've got to look the part.
00:25:50Trust me, it's an investment.
00:25:54Mr. Thornton, welcome back.
00:25:55How can I assist you today?
00:25:57Come here a lot?
00:25:59Well, of course, Mr. Thornton owns this store.
00:26:02Uh, Jess, why don't you try this one on?
00:26:06You'll look great in it.
00:26:10Wow, Jess, you look amazing.
00:26:14You think so?
00:26:15Yeah, this is exactly what a CEO would wear.
00:26:19Absolutely, great choice.
00:26:21We'll take this one.
00:26:24Something on your mind?
00:26:26Well, it's probably nothing, but it's just that clerk seemed very fond of you.
00:26:31Oh, uh, being friendly is a part of my job.
00:26:35Okay.
00:26:41So that's how you got your lawyer, huh?
00:26:45Now that you mention it, maybe she was a little friendly, but we got a discount.
00:26:51Sure.
00:26:59What a slut.
00:27:04Trust me, Jess, you can do this.
00:27:06Yeah, but what if they don't accept me?
00:27:08They will.
00:27:09Trust me.
00:27:10Just speak from the heart and show your true self.
00:27:13Look at you two little lovebirds.
00:27:21Ted, we can talk about this later.
00:27:23Okay.
00:27:25You go in.
00:27:26I'll meet you in there soon, okay?
00:27:33Good luck in there, sis.
00:27:36You're gonna need it.
00:27:37You don't have the votes.
00:27:42I know my background doesn't seem very typical of a CEO,
00:27:45but I built myself from the bottom up here.
00:27:48Miller Corporation is a leader in tech and services,
00:27:54reaching industries from healthcare to energy.
00:27:57We have over 10,000 employees worldwide
00:28:01who've worked hard to build this company from the ground up,
00:28:04and I was one of them.
00:28:05I know them.
00:28:07And I believe that I can help lead this company to become everyone's company.
00:28:12Let's proceed to the vote.
00:28:14All in favor?
00:28:19Robert lost his damn mind.
00:28:20He picked a secret child to be the CEO,
00:28:23only because of his guilty conscience.
00:28:26Richard, if I may-
00:28:27I'm not done talking.
00:28:28You can't lead us, and you're not getting my vote.
00:28:33Richard, if I may speak-
00:28:34Go ahead.
00:28:36But I won't change my mind.
00:28:40Sorry for interrupting everyone,
00:28:42but I have something important to share with you all today.
00:28:44Who the hell are you?
00:28:45Well, Richard, I'm the person who's going to expose you.
00:28:49What did you just say?
00:28:51How do I say this?
00:28:53You're a sex pervert.
00:28:55What?
00:28:58You see, everyone, this file contains multiple sexual harassment lawsuits
00:29:04against Richard over the past 30 years.
00:29:08Some of them also have ongoing lawsuits.
00:29:11They're all just allegations, and they've all been settled.
00:29:13I'm innocent.
00:29:14We've also got in contact with some of the victims,
00:29:16and they're willing to come forward and testify.
00:29:17Actually, I have not finished yet.
00:29:20You're also stealing money from the company,
00:29:22and we have financial records to prove it.
00:29:34Let's all vote for Richard Donnell's immediate suspension.
00:29:38All in favor?
00:29:43We have 15 votes.
00:29:45The board has decided.
00:29:46Richard Donnell is officially removed from his position.
00:29:50Security, escort him out immediately.
00:29:52I know my way.
00:29:58And all in favor of appointing Jessica Miller as the new CEO.
00:30:05I'm sorry I was late.
00:30:18I had to make sure I had enough evidence to mail.
00:30:20No, don't be sorry, Daniel.
00:30:21That was so worth the wait.
00:30:25This is not over.
00:30:27You'll see.
00:30:28How's packing going, Lisa?
00:30:29You're about to be evicted soon.
00:30:35She won again, that bitch.
00:30:38I know, it's so unfair.
00:30:40Do we have a guest?
00:30:41Lisa, honey, I've been trying to reach you.
00:30:44Why haven't you returned my calls?
00:30:46I've been busy.
00:30:47Busy?
00:30:49Even with Jessica?
00:30:50How did you know?
00:30:51Oh, I know.
00:30:52And I think I know how to help you take it down.
00:30:55Again.
00:30:56No use to me anymore, Adrian.
00:30:58I only needed you to help me get rid of Jessica.
00:31:01To the new CEO of the Miller Empire.
00:31:05Well, I couldn't have done it without you, Daniel.
00:31:08I also have another Christmas surprise for you.
00:31:12Who are you calling?
00:31:16Is it?
00:31:17Yes, Jess.
00:31:18It's your mother, Clara.
00:31:19Oh, my God, Mom.
00:31:21Oh, Jessica, you're a grown woman now.
00:31:24The Miller family threatened to kill you, Jess.
00:31:27I had no option but to vanish.
00:31:30Oh, Mom, it's okay.
00:31:32It's okay.
00:31:33Like, you didn't do anything wrong.
00:31:34I'll bring you back into the country.
00:31:35I promised.
00:31:38Daniel, how did you find her?
00:31:40I have a few powerful friends.
00:31:41They did me a favor.
00:31:43But I'll leave you two alone.
00:31:54Two more, please.
00:31:57Daniel.
00:31:59Adrian.
00:32:01Long time no see, buddy.
00:32:02Oh, my God.
00:32:03How long has it been?
00:32:05Ten years.
00:32:05Ten years.
00:32:06Oh, my God.
00:32:08The last time I must have seen you was, uh, law school.
00:32:11Yep.
00:32:13Go Reds.
00:32:14Go Reds.
00:32:16What are you doing here?
00:32:18Just in town to run some errands.
00:32:20Just want to come in for a quick bite.
00:32:22Nice, man.
00:32:22Nice.
00:32:23I saw your date earlier.
00:32:25She looks pretty.
00:32:26Yeah, my wife.
00:32:28Your wife?
00:32:29Yeah, Jess.
00:32:30You're married?
00:32:30Yes.
00:32:31Yeah, you have to introduce me to her.
00:32:33Come on, let's go say hi.
00:32:34Come and say hello.
00:32:35It's good to see you, buddy.
00:32:36Good to see you too, man.
00:32:38Jess, I wanted you to meet an old friend of mine.
00:32:40Adrian, this is Jess.
00:32:42Jess, this is Adrian.
00:32:43We went to law school together.
00:32:49I don't want to see him.
00:32:54I don't want to see him.
00:32:57You two know each other?
00:32:59Yes, Daniel.
00:33:00I was her first boyfriend.
00:33:05Come on, Jess.
00:33:06Don't you miss me?
00:33:07I don't want to see you anymore.
00:33:10You know you still want me, Jess.
00:33:12No, I don't.
00:33:16I think you should leave, Adrian.
00:33:18Okay, Daniel.
00:33:19Relax.
00:33:20Now.
00:33:26I'm leaving.
00:33:30She knows she's lying.
00:33:35Boss, Adrian Wesley now represents the inside crystal mirror.
00:33:39They want to test the weapon.
00:33:40I should have known.
00:33:42What else?
00:33:43Adrian also used me, Jessica.
00:33:45Actually, he's the one who sabotaged Jessica's immigration paperwork.
00:33:49It caused all this trouble.
00:33:54That son of a bitch.
00:33:56We need to win this war.
00:33:57Do whatever it takes.
00:34:00Okay.
00:34:06Daniel?
00:34:08Sorry.
00:34:09Did I wake you?
00:34:10No, can...
00:34:12Can you join me in bed, please?
00:34:17You sure?
00:34:22I just...
00:34:23I wanted to apologize for earlier.
00:34:26The restaurant.
00:34:30I got a bit carried away.
00:34:32Jess, you don't need to apologize.
00:34:34Adrian's an asshole.
00:34:35He's just trying to do it to get on your skin.
00:34:38I did care for Adrian once, but he just destroyed everything we had.
00:34:44I want you to know that I'm here because of you.
00:34:50And you're the only one who I love.
00:34:55No one else.
00:34:59I love you too, Jess.
00:35:08And I'm not going anywhere.
00:35:22Good morning, husband.
00:35:24Morning, wife.
00:35:26Are you ready for your big days?
00:35:27Then you see you?
00:35:28If only you were with me.
00:35:48You're gonna do great today.
00:35:57Jess?
00:35:58Here's your coffee.
00:36:02What's wrong?
00:36:03No, it's just...
00:36:04It's this job.
00:36:05It's all so new to me.
00:36:07Okay, calm down.
00:36:09Remember, you're the CEO, which means you're the boss.
00:36:13Yeah, but I don't know how to be a boss.
00:36:16Hey, Jess.
00:36:18Look at you sitting in the big chair now.
00:36:20Oh, I am so happy you're here.
00:36:26You must be Daniel.
00:36:28Jessica's been talking about you for days.
00:36:32I'm flattered.
00:36:33I really wish you could be here with me, G.
00:36:34It's exhausting.
00:36:36Oh, at least you have a job, Jess.
00:36:38I've been looking for work for the past two months.
00:36:41Jess?
00:36:44Do you like Jana being here?
00:36:48Of course.
00:36:49We've been besties since forever.
00:36:51Yeah, what kind of question is that?
00:36:53Well, why don't you use your CEO power and hire Jana?
00:36:59Oh, I know what you mean.
00:37:01I don't understand.
00:37:03How would you like to come work for me?
00:37:09Of course.
00:37:11Okay, then.
00:37:12My first order as CEO.
00:37:16Jana, you are hired as my personal assistant.
00:37:20Oh my god, Jess.
00:37:21Thank you so much.
00:37:23See?
00:37:24Being a boss is easy.
00:37:26You can do whatever you want.
00:37:34Oh my god.
00:37:36What's wrong?
00:37:36The company's stock prices are dropping like crazy.
00:37:40What is happening?
00:37:42This isn't good.
00:37:43The stock's getting down.
00:37:45Well, well, well.
00:37:48Looks like things aren't going so well.
00:37:50What did you do, Lisa?
00:37:51I asked Richard and some of the other investors to sell their stocks.
00:37:56The board members are not going to be happy about the stock prices, Jessica.
00:37:59What do you want?
00:38:00Resign as CEO or I will destroy this company.
00:38:05No way.
00:38:06Okay.
00:38:08Then I will destroy this company.
00:38:10Jessica, the board members are asking to meet with you.
00:38:13They're angry.
00:38:18What are you going to do, Jess?
00:38:20Okay, I'll meet with the board.
00:38:22Wait, Jess.
00:38:25Don't go.
00:38:25Take a seat.
00:38:27What is it?
00:38:28Lisa, are you sure the stock prices are going down?
00:38:32Because to me, they seem to be going up and up.
00:38:36That's impossible.
00:38:36You would need at least a billion dollars.
00:38:40I guess anything's possible these days.
00:38:42God damn it!
00:38:44God, she's annoying.
00:38:50You must be my lucky star.
00:38:58Daniel.
00:39:00Gina.
00:39:02I know who you are, Daniel.
00:39:03You're the son of James Thornton.
00:39:05How did you find out?
00:39:07My identity is meant to be a secret.
00:39:08I used to work for your father.
00:39:10Please don't tell Jess.
00:39:11I'll pay you.
00:39:12How much do you want?
00:39:13I don't want your money.
00:39:14I care for my friend.
00:39:17Actually, your father fired me because I tried to help Jessica.
00:39:20I'm sorry, Gina.
00:39:22It's okay.
00:39:24I just want to know why.
00:39:26She hates my family.
00:39:28I have to lie to her.
00:39:29She hates your family, but she loves you.
00:39:33I can see that.
00:39:35You really think so?
00:39:36Yes.
00:39:37I love her, too.
00:39:39She's the best thing that's ever happened to me.
00:39:43That's good to hear.
00:39:45Please protect her.
00:39:53Daniel.
00:39:55It's my mom.
00:39:57Adrian threatened her.
00:40:02Adrian threatened my mom on the phone.
00:40:04He said he was going to block her from entering the country.
00:40:07What should we do?
00:40:10Jess, I don't want you to worry about it.
00:40:12I'm going to make sure your mom gets here safely.
00:40:15Okay.
00:40:28Tyler.
00:40:30I need you to make sure Jessica's mom gets here safely.
00:40:33Book her on the first flight out tomorrow.
00:40:34Got it, boss.
00:40:35She'll be here in town the day after tomorrow.
00:40:37Good.
00:40:39Jess, it's been taken care of.
00:40:41Your mom's going to be here the day after tomorrow.
00:40:44Thank you, Daniel.
00:40:47But I'm...
00:40:49I'm still scared.
00:40:50I just... I need a day off.
00:40:52I love the sound of that.
00:40:54What did you have in mind?
00:40:56I was thinking...
00:41:00I want to buy a house.
00:41:03I want to buy a house.
00:41:04I want to buy a house.
00:41:05I want to buy a house.
00:41:06I want to buy a house.
00:41:07I want to buy a house.
00:41:14So?
00:41:17Do you like this place?
00:41:18It's amazing.
00:41:20But, Jess, I appreciate the gesture.
00:41:23But you don't need to buy me a house.
00:41:26No, no.
00:41:27I insist.
00:41:29You have done so much to help me.
00:41:32Besides, we can live together here.
00:41:34Mr. Thornton.
00:41:36Hi.
00:41:36Your father is here.
00:41:38Are you meeting him here?
00:41:43Well, I've never met your parents.
00:41:47So I'm pretty excited to meet an in-law.
00:41:51Oh, is that him?
00:41:54Come on, let's go say hi.
00:41:56Jess, wait.
00:41:57Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.
00:41:59Um...
00:42:02I might not have told my dad about you and our marriage.
00:42:05Why?
00:42:08Because he has a heart condition.
00:42:10I think it's best you stay here.
00:42:12Okay.
00:42:14I'll just stay here then.
00:42:19Good.
00:42:23Dad?
00:42:24Come on.
00:42:26What the hell?
00:42:26Jessica's here.
00:42:27She can't see her face.
00:42:28Don't take them off.
00:42:31I want to talk to you about Ashley, Daniel.
00:42:34Ashley?
00:42:37Why hasn't Daniel told his father about me and our wedding?
00:42:40Ashley, really?
00:42:42Not today.
00:42:44And what is this shirt you're wearing?
00:42:47Mother insisted I wear it in this charity event.
00:42:50Anyway, right.
00:42:52Said it makes me look more grounded.
00:42:56And I told you not.
00:42:58And don't go changing our subject.
00:43:00I want to discuss our agreement.
00:43:02I give you Clara and you marry Ashley.
00:43:09Why does he look so nervous?
00:43:12Am I not good enough?
00:43:16Do we have to talk about this right now?
00:43:18I held up my end of the bargain, Daniel.
00:43:21I want this deal done now.
00:43:23Actually, Clara isn't safe yet.
00:43:25Lisa Miller might try to sabotage everything.
00:43:28This is why you don't mess with the Miller family.
00:43:31You shouldn't have left it alone.
00:43:32All I'm asking is just a few more days.
00:43:35She is coming to town in a few days.
00:43:37What?
00:43:39Jess.
00:43:41Jess.
00:43:49Dad, this is Jess.
00:43:51Jess, this is dad.
00:43:53You can call him Jimmy.
00:43:54Jimmy?
00:43:58I'm Jimmy, sweetie.
00:44:00It's lovely to meet you, Jimmy.
00:44:01And can I just say that is a lovely Hawaiian shirt.
00:44:05It really, really suits you.
00:44:07Well, thank you, Jessica.
00:44:09It's one I'm fond of.
00:44:12So who is Ashley?
00:44:15I heard you guys talking about her earlier.
00:44:17Oh, she's just a old family friend.
00:44:22They grew up and went to law school together.
00:44:25And she had Daniel's first kiss.
00:44:28Oh.
00:44:30Her wedding is approaching soon.
00:44:32And I like Daniel to attend.
00:44:34Dad, I'm reminiscing about the good old days.
00:44:37No, it's fine.
00:44:38Honestly, it's lovely to hear about Daniel's childhood and more about his life.
00:44:42You bastard child.
00:44:48Well, well, what do we have here?
00:44:52You think you can afford this place?
00:44:54You're about to lose this battle and be out on the streets soon.
00:44:59Who's this clown?
00:45:02Looks like he belongs in a circus.
00:45:04How dare you, Kristen?
00:45:06How do you know my name?
00:45:08And don't you dare call me by my first name.
00:45:10That's enough.
00:45:13Don't talk to my father like that.
00:45:18He's your father.
00:45:21How does it feel to be a father of such a loser?
00:45:24Don't talk to my family like that.
00:45:27Your family.
00:45:28Your family suck, Jessica.
00:45:31Especially your mother.
00:45:32The home-wrecking tramp.
00:45:35A whore.
00:45:43Your family suck, Jessica.
00:45:46Especially your mother.
00:45:47The home-wrecking tramp.
00:45:50A whore.
00:45:52Oh, damn!
00:45:57How dare you slap me?
00:46:00That is enough, Kristen.
00:46:03You're not going to lay a hand on anyone.
00:46:07Ladies, you need to leave now.
00:46:10You can't throw us out.
00:46:11We're buyers.
00:46:11We're not going anywhere.
00:46:12The owner of this property has banned you from coming here.
00:46:15You need to leave now or I will call security.
00:46:19You will regret this.
00:46:23I've heard that a thousand times.
00:46:25Now leave.
00:46:27Now.
00:46:35Thank you, Jessica.
00:46:37You stood up for me.
00:46:39Well, we're family, Jimmy.
00:46:41That's what I'm supposed to do.
00:46:45Well, I appreciate it.
00:46:48You're a nice girl.
00:46:50You found a good wife, son.
00:46:54Dad, about Ashley's wedding.
00:46:56I don't think I'm going to be able to make it.
00:46:58I'll look into it.
00:47:00I'll speak to her about it.
00:47:01Oh, no, no, no, no.
00:47:03Daniel can still attend.
00:47:04It's not a problem.
00:47:05Jess, I just want to focus on you and I.
00:47:08I'm not the jealous type.
00:47:10Plus, I don't want you to miss your first crush's wedding.
00:47:14Well, you decide, Daniel.
00:47:16Oh, there's a long party.
00:47:19You two want to come?
00:47:20It's in three hours.
00:47:22Yeah.
00:47:24Dad, we'll go.
00:47:25Great.
00:47:27I'll see you there.
00:47:37Well, this place is extremely high class.
00:47:42Well, my dad has a few rich friends.
00:47:48And James Thornton is here.
00:47:51I know you don't want to see him.
00:47:53But Jess, your dad's here.
00:47:55He's going to join us later.
00:47:57Okay.
00:47:59Ah, the bidding's about to start.
00:48:04Oh, that bitch is here!
00:48:06I know.
00:48:07Don't worry, we can teach him a lesson.
00:48:08Yeah, how?
00:48:09Let's see if Daniel can handle a little humiliation.
00:48:14With money.
00:48:15Dude, money?
00:48:15What money?
00:48:16I haven't gotten my inheritance back yet.
00:48:18Yeah, I know.
00:48:18Your mother spoke to Richard.
00:48:20She said he's willing to donate some cash if we make Jessica look ugly.
00:48:24Oh.
00:48:25You're the best.
00:48:28I'm not.
00:48:33Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to this evening's auction.
00:48:36We have for you the last dance.
00:48:38Bid starts at one million dollars.
00:48:43One million dollars!
00:48:47Two million dollars, right here.
00:48:51Three million dollars!
00:48:55Four million dollars!
00:49:01What are they doing?
00:49:02Where did they get that money from?
00:49:03I don't know, but they're definitely trying to humiliate you here.
00:49:06Really?
00:49:07But I don't even care about this bid.
00:49:10Five million dollars!
00:49:12Daniel, what are you doing?
00:49:13Don't worry, Jess, I've got this.
00:49:18Five million dollars!
00:49:19Daniel, what are you doing?
00:49:21Don't worry, Jess, I've got this.
00:49:22I got six million dollars.
00:49:26Cash.
00:49:27Boom.
00:49:28Can't compete with that.
00:49:30Watch this.
00:49:32Seven million dollars!
00:49:35Eight million dollars!
00:49:37Did that just happen?
00:49:38Ten million dollars!
00:49:42Awesome.
00:49:44Ten million.
00:49:44Once, twice, sold.
00:49:48Is the gentleman there?
00:49:53Where did you get that money from?
00:49:58Well, do you remember me telling you about I have a powerful friend?
00:50:03Yeah, the one who helped me find my mother.
00:50:06Jessica.
00:50:07James Thornton.
00:50:09In the flesh.
00:50:10Or Mrs. Thornton.
00:50:12I want to apologize to you.
00:50:14I am truly sorry for everything I did to you and your mother.
00:50:18And I'm trying my best to make amends.
00:50:21Well, I don't know what to say.
00:50:25Jess, I know it's a lot to handle.
00:50:26You've just got to trust me.
00:50:27Yeah, but why didn't you just tell me in the first place, Daniel?
00:50:30Jess!
00:50:32Jessica!
00:50:33Don't follow me!
00:50:38Oh, this could get interesting.
00:50:40Uh-huh.
00:50:49Oh, look who's alone.
00:50:54No, just leave me alone.
00:50:55You're never gonna win against James Thornton.
00:50:57He's my mother's best friend.
00:50:59You're gonna lose everything.
00:51:01Poor babe, still played by the big boys.
00:51:03James Thornton and his son have been playing you all along.
00:51:09What did you just say?
00:51:10James Thornton and his son?
00:51:12Wait, Jess, you didn't know?
00:51:13Daniel Thornton is his son.
00:51:17Oh, my God.
00:51:19I didn't know that.
00:51:20Now that I do.
00:51:22That's enough!
00:51:24Oh, excuse me, Mr. Thornton.
00:51:27Crown Prince Sam is a Thornton family.
00:51:37This man has been lying to you all along.
00:51:40Poor little girl's got no one to trust.
00:51:42Both of you, get out of here.
00:51:53Jess, I've been trying to tell you.
00:51:55Am I a joke to you?
00:51:56No, what do you mean?
00:51:58You and your father.
00:52:01You've been playing me this whole time.
00:52:03No, I've been standing by your side all the time, Jess.
00:52:07I can't trust you.
00:52:08You're lying to me.
00:52:10You're right.
00:52:12You're right.
00:52:15I have been hiding things from you.
00:52:18You know what I haven't told you yet?
00:52:22Another big secret.
00:52:24Are you sure you want to hear this?
00:52:31The other big secret is, the first time we met isn't what you think it is.
00:52:36It was five years ago.
00:52:37Five years ago?
00:52:38It was at a party.
00:52:42I was drunk and I fell in the pool.
00:52:52Oh, thank God you're alive.
00:52:57I was drowning and you saved my life.
00:53:00But you won't remember that.
00:53:03But I will forever be grateful for what you did for me that day.
00:53:07That... that was you?
00:53:09Yes.
00:53:10My father forbid me from seeing you.
00:53:13But I didn't care.
00:53:15I confronted him.
00:53:16You can't tell me what to do, Dad!
00:53:18You can't stop me from seeing her!
00:53:19I'm doing what's best for you, Daniel.
00:53:21That girl and all her family are nothing but trouble.
00:53:25And then he decided to tell me about everything he did to you and your mom.
00:53:29And I felt so guilty.
00:53:30It's okay.
00:53:34I was ashamed to approach you.
00:53:35I just didn't know how to face you without making things worse.
00:53:38And I thought the best thing to do was just be happy.
00:53:41No, I know.
00:53:42And then I heard about you being deported and I just couldn't let that happen.
00:53:45Well, I saved you.
00:53:50And you saved me.
00:53:53Because we just belong together.
00:53:59Ew, corny.
00:54:01I mean...
00:54:03But just... no more secrets.
00:54:08Okay?
00:54:09I promise.
00:54:11No more secrets.
00:54:27You're up early.
00:54:28Yeah.
00:54:30I'm gonna go pick your mom up from the airport.
00:54:32Better sooner than later.
00:54:36Gianna just texted me.
00:54:38She said that I have my first weekly exec meeting this morning.
00:54:42I should postpone it.
00:54:43No, you should definitely go to that.
00:54:46You need to look good in front of your board.
00:54:47Really?
00:54:48Yeah.
00:54:49I'm gonna go pick your mom up from the airport and I'll bring her straight to the office.
00:54:52Thanks.
00:54:53You're the best.
00:54:54Well, that was better than I thought.
00:54:59Don't underestimate yourself, Jess.
00:55:01You did great.
00:55:06Heya, Jess.
00:55:08What are you doing here?
00:55:13What are you doing here?
00:55:14I just want to share with you some interesting facts about your dear husband, Daniel Thornton.
00:55:19Gianna, can you wait outside a moment?
00:55:25Okay.
00:55:26I'm telling you now, whatever bad made-up facts that you've come to tell me about Daniel
00:55:31is not going to work because Daniel already told me everything.
00:55:35Everything?
00:55:36Are you so sure?
00:55:37Yeah.
00:55:38Him, his father, came clean about everything.
00:55:40There is nothing more to hide.
00:55:42And did they also tell you Daniel was supposed to marry his childhood sweetheart?
00:55:45What?
00:55:46Ashley Wimbledon.
00:55:47Heiress to the famous Wimbledon family.
00:55:50Ring any bells?
00:55:51Ashley.
00:55:55Ashley.
00:55:57Who is Ashley?
00:55:58I heard you guys talking about her earlier.
00:56:01Oh, she's just an old childhood friend.
00:56:04They grew up and went to law school together.
00:56:08And she had Daniel's first kiss.
00:56:13He did mention Ashley.
00:56:18He did?
00:56:19Yeah, but he's not going to marry her.
00:56:21I remember that conversation.
00:56:25Daniel's picking my mother up from the airport himself.
00:56:28I'll be seeing her soon.
00:56:31What are you laughing about?
00:56:36Daniel is bringing her back, babe.
00:56:39You're not going to see her.
00:56:43After years of separation with your mother,
00:56:46Daniel didn't let you go along with him to meet with her?
00:56:49And what kind of a husband does that?
00:56:51I had an early meeting this morning and Daniel didn't want me to worry.
00:56:55So easily manipulated, Jess.
00:56:58Just like old times.
00:57:00Yeah, well, I don't believe a word you say.
00:57:04Daniel isn't going to bring her back.
00:57:07Can't I find out together?
00:57:16Are you sure everything is taken care of?
00:57:17Yes, you're free to live in this country.
00:57:20Clara, I also want to apologize for everything it went through years ago.
00:57:24I'm deeply sorry.
00:57:25Well, he did bring me back here.
00:57:27Right now, I just want to see my daughter.
00:57:30We'll go, sir.
00:57:31Not so fast, Danny boy.
00:57:35You're too late, Lisa.
00:57:37Clara's here to claim Robert's inheritance back.
00:57:39Oh, I don't think so.
00:57:41Agents, do your thing.
00:57:42Wait.
00:57:43What?
00:57:43This is a mistake.
00:57:45Clara's got past customs.
00:57:46She can stay.
00:57:47Sweetheart, you really think those little documents can stop this?
00:57:51I don't think so.
00:57:52Back off, Lisa.
00:57:53Watch it, little boy.
00:57:54Jess.
00:57:55Jess!
00:57:55Mom!
00:57:56Mom!
00:57:57What are you doing?
00:57:58Where are they taking my mother?
00:57:59Mom, I will bring her back.
00:58:01I promise.
00:58:01Just stay strong.
00:58:02Sis, it looks like you've been screwed by the Thorntons again.
00:58:05Adrienne, you sabotaged this.
00:58:07You'll pay for this.
00:58:09See, babe, I told you he's not bringing her back.
00:58:12You said everything was taken care of.
00:58:14Jess, it's not me.
00:58:15It's them.
00:58:15You're lying, Daniel.
00:58:17Why don't you ask him about that thing we talked about, Jess?
00:58:22Jess.
00:58:22He said that you were going to marry Ashley.
00:58:25Okay, so it's true.
00:58:26Jess, can we just talk about this?
00:58:29No.
00:58:29No, no, no, no.
00:58:30Thing is, Daniel, you promised me no more secrets.
00:58:33I can't trust you anymore.
00:58:35Jess!
00:58:36It's just, uh...
00:58:37Looks like you lost, Daniel.
00:58:39You never get in their back.
00:58:47Oh, thank God you're alive.
00:59:17Not yet.
00:59:26Dad, what's the problem with Clara?
00:59:27Her paperwork was false.
00:59:28You're right, boss.
00:59:29I checked with customers in the USCIS, and it could confirm that she legally entered the country.
00:59:39Agents, do your thing.
00:59:41Wait.
00:59:41What?
00:59:42This is a mistake.
00:59:42No.
00:59:44Jess.
00:59:45Jess, baby!
00:59:46Mom!
00:59:49The ICE agents weren't real.
00:59:51They were hired by Adrian and Lisa to kidnap Clara.
00:59:53Well, don't thank.
00:59:57You're right, boss.
00:59:58We found out those people want her.
01:00:00What should we do?
01:00:01I need to find out where they took them.
01:00:03Use all our contacts.
01:00:05I'm not going to let them get away with this.
01:00:07On it, boss.
01:00:08Well, well, well, Clara.
01:00:17You thought you didn't expect to see me again, did you?
01:00:20We finally have what it takes to get it all back?
01:00:23Don't look at me like that.
01:00:24You disgust me.
01:00:30Jess, we need to talk.
01:00:32I don't want to talk to you.
01:00:33It's about your mom.
01:00:34I think she was kidnapped by Adrian and Lisa's people.
01:00:36The ICE agents weren't real.
01:00:39What are you talking about?
01:00:41I spoke to Ted.
01:00:42He told me that Clara legally came into the country.
01:00:45It was a setup.
01:00:46Do you actually expect me to believe that?
01:00:49After all the lies?
01:00:50You're so full of shit, Daniel!
01:00:58Hello, bastard child.
01:01:00Yes, we have your mother.
01:01:02And if you ever want to see her again,
01:01:04follow the directions to the address that we just sent you.
01:01:06And don't bring anyone, especially Daniel.
01:01:12Let me come with you.
01:01:13No, they want me alone.
01:01:14I don't want to risk-
01:01:15Jess.
01:01:15Don't follow me.
01:01:16I will not let you do this alone.
01:01:24Mom?
01:01:25Bastard child, over here.
01:01:27You let her go.
01:01:28This has gone on far enough.
01:01:30Not so fast, sis.
01:01:32This is only the beginning.
01:01:37You sign this, we let her go.
01:01:41And what is it?
01:01:42An agreement signing everything over to us.
01:01:45The house, the company.
01:01:55It's signed.
01:01:58Now let her go.
01:01:59God, you are so naive, sis.
01:02:02What more do you want?
01:02:05Get down on your knees.
01:02:06And show that you know your place.
01:02:11Get down on your knees.
01:02:12And show that you know your place.
01:02:15Wait.
01:02:20That's better.
01:02:27Now bark like a dog.
01:02:32Come on.
01:02:37That's enough, Kristen.
01:02:42We're getting her, come on.
01:02:49Let's get her out of here.
01:02:50Come on, let's go.
01:02:52Come on, Daniel!
01:02:56I can't.
01:02:58Mom, we gotta go.
01:02:59Come on.
01:03:01Daniel!
01:03:06Jess.
01:03:09Don't try and talk to the police.
01:03:11They're on their way.
01:03:12Jess.
01:03:13I'm so sorry.
01:03:14Why are you apologizing?
01:03:16Just don't move.
01:03:26The doctor said it was nothing serious.
01:03:28So you'll be out of here soon.
01:03:31Jess, I just want to apologize.
01:03:33I'm so sorry.
01:03:35Daniel, what are you apologizing for?
01:03:38You saved my mom.
01:03:39You saved us.
01:03:41Hello again, Mr. Thornton.
01:03:44Officer, you're here.
01:03:45Yes.
01:03:46You promised me last week we'd get that interview done.
01:03:51Officer, my husband is injured.
01:03:53He's literally lying in bed.
01:03:55Well, that doesn't change the requirements.
01:03:58Jess, it's okay.
01:04:00I can do the interview.
01:04:04We can do the interview.
01:04:07Are you insane?
01:04:09We haven't rehearsed this.
01:04:11Jess, when you see we've been rehearsing this whole Christmas,
01:04:15there's no better time to do this.
01:04:17You're right.
01:04:20We're ready, officer.
01:04:22Let's start with the question I asked you last week.
01:04:25When did you two first meet?
01:04:26Five years and four months ago.
01:04:29I don't understand.
01:04:30Last time you said it was six months ago
01:04:33when the other one said it was eight months ago.
01:04:35We lied, officer.
01:04:38But it was five years ago at a pool party.
01:04:41And we had our first kiss when we first met.
01:04:46It sounds pretty far-fetched.
01:04:48But for some reason, I want to give you two the benefit of the doubt.
01:04:55It sounds pretty far-fetched.
01:04:57But for some reason, I want to give you two the benefit of the doubt.
01:05:02Daniel risked his life to save me and my mother.
01:05:05There's nothing more he needs to do to prove his love for me.
01:05:08One last question.
01:05:10How frequently have you two spent the night together in the past week?
01:05:19Relax.
01:05:20I can tell it's been at least three times.
01:05:23Right, well, that's my interview done.
01:05:25You two are quite the couple.
01:05:27Thank you, officer.
01:05:29Daniel.
01:05:30Daniel!
01:05:31She's coming!
01:05:32Who's coming?
01:05:39Your fiancé.
01:05:40That's who.
01:05:45Your fiancé.
01:05:46That's who.
01:05:48Ashley.
01:05:49I guess I'm not done yet.
01:05:51You betrayed my family's trust, Daniel.
01:05:54Ashley, please.
01:05:56Can't we talk about this?
01:05:58So you're Jessica Miller, hm?
01:06:01Adrian's told me all about you.
01:06:03I don't know what Adrian told you, but it's not what you think.
01:06:07Daniel was supposed to marry me.
01:06:10And then you just waltzed in and ruined everything.
01:06:13Ashley, our engagement was long over before Jessica came to the picture.
01:06:20Oh, I see.
01:06:22You think this is over.
01:06:25I'm the heiress of the Wimbledon family.
01:06:28The Thornton name is as good as ruined.
01:06:33You can't do that, Ashley.
01:06:38Watch me.
01:06:43You're not the only heiress here.
01:06:48I own Miller Empire.
01:06:51And if you come for the Thorntons,
01:06:54the Miller Empire is going to come for you.
01:06:57So hard.
01:07:01You've got guts, Jessica.
01:07:04I like you.
01:07:08I gotta tell you, I didn't expect that.
01:07:10This is so much better than watching TV.
01:07:12Glad to see you've replaced me with someone with a little fire, Daniel.
01:07:20I always knew Daniel didn't love me,
01:07:23but he was too afraid of his father to ever go after his true love.
01:07:28But I guess I'm happy that he's found someone who wants the same things as him.
01:07:36So, that's it?
01:07:40That's it.
01:07:44Enjoy your happy ending, darling.
01:07:49Andrea, bring the car around.
01:07:54Did that actually just happen?
01:07:56Yeah.
01:07:57Wow.
01:07:58You two really don't let anyone or anything get in the way of true love.
01:08:03You can see that coming.
01:08:07This is all your fault, Mom.
01:08:08If you wouldn't have been so reckless, maybe we wouldn't be in this mess.
01:08:10Don't put all the blame on me.
01:08:12You're just as much a part of this as I am.
01:08:14Where is Ashley?
01:08:15She should be here by now.
01:08:17Miss me?
01:08:18Where have you been?
01:08:19Just tying up a few loose ends.
01:08:21Don't worry about it.
01:08:23Everything's going according to plan.
01:08:24Plan?
01:08:25What plan?
01:08:26Everything's falling apart.
01:08:37What did you do, Adrian?
01:08:39Well, me myself?
01:08:40I've done nothing illegal.
01:08:42You two on the other hand, that's a different story.
01:08:46You set us up!
01:08:47I'm just ensuring my own safety.
01:08:50After all, I kept my hands clean.
01:08:53Oh!
01:08:57Ouch!
01:08:57You're gonna get away with this, asshole!
01:09:00I already have.
01:09:07I remember when this place was filled with warmth and laughter.
01:09:11It used to be a real family home back then.
01:09:14Then things just went south.
01:09:16Things will be fine again, Mom, I promise.
01:09:18We'll turn this into a good family house.
01:09:21No more hatred.
01:09:23No more backstabbing.
01:09:24I missed you every single day, Jess.
01:09:26I'm so sorry for everything both of us had to go through.
01:09:32Jessica?
01:09:34Clara?
01:09:36I am so sorry for everything that I've done to you both.
01:09:40I was wrong.
01:09:41And I know I can never fully make up for it.
01:09:44But I want to try.
01:09:45James, you kept us apart for so many years.
01:09:48It's gonna be hard to forgive and forget.
01:09:50I know, Clara.
01:09:53I know.
01:09:55Jess, are you all right?
01:09:58Yeah, I know. I'm fine.
01:10:01I just feel so nauseous, that's all.
01:10:06Have you been getting any other symptoms like dizziness or fatigue?
01:10:11Yeah, but I just thought that was from all the stress.
01:10:16Sweetheart, you're pregnant!
01:10:19Really?
01:10:20You're showing all the signs, Jess.
01:10:23What?
01:10:24We're gonna have a baby!
01:10:27Wait, that means I'm gonna be a grandpa!
01:10:31Yeah!
01:10:39Daniel, there's something you need to do.
01:10:45What's this?
01:10:46This is a ring your grandma left.
01:10:48And I think this is the perfect time to use it.
01:10:53Okay, I'm gonna do this.
01:10:55Yeah.
01:11:05Jess?
01:11:06Jess!
01:11:10Jess, I know we've only ever spent time together a week during Christmas.
01:11:13And we've been through so much in that time.
01:11:16And over the past five years, all I've wanted to do is be with you.
01:11:20And I've had to endure the pain of that not being possible.
01:11:23I want to spend every waking moment in time with you.
01:11:25All I'm trying to say is, Jess...
01:11:31Will you marry me?
01:11:35For real this time.
01:11:37Yes, Daniel! Yes, I will marry you!
01:11:39Yes!
01:11:39Really?
01:11:40Yes!
01:11:46Yes!
