00:00:00Someone went wild last night.
00:00:29Not too bad, as far as the last night of being single goes.
00:00:32I don't get it, man. Why'd she leave without saying goodbye?
00:00:35Maybe she's on the way to the marriage registry to marry you.
00:00:38Yeah, maybe.
00:00:40So, according to your mother's will, as soon as you get married, you'll receive the share she left for you.
00:00:44So I've arranged for someone for you to have a fake marriage with.
00:00:47I trust your taste.
00:00:53Oh, look at that. The woman who agreed to your fake marriage is already on her way.
00:00:57Whoever she is, with that marriage license, the normal group officially becomes mine.
00:01:01So why didn't you go with what your grandfathers arranged for marriage?
00:01:04Man, I'd much rather be that girl from last night, but I don't know if I'm gonna ever see her again.
00:01:17It's you.
00:01:47If I had known that you were the person I was gonna marry, we could have shared a ride from the hotel.
00:01:51Well, I am short on cash these days, so...
00:01:54Same. I had to borrow the suit.
00:01:57It's a good suit.
00:01:59This is all that I have today. Thank you for coming, and you'll get the rest when we divorce in one year.
00:02:11I guess I deserve an Oscar for my performance today.
00:02:15With the shares from your mother's will, you now own 50% of Laura Group.
00:02:24Inform the whole company. A new era starts today.
00:02:28Sure thing.
00:02:30You murderers, better watch your backs. I'm coming for you.
00:02:36I'm gonna avenge you.
00:02:43With the shares from your mother's will, you now own 50% of Laura Group.
00:02:48I guess it's time to show them who's boss.
00:02:51Yes, boss.
00:03:08What? New presents here?
00:03:24Now?
00:03:25Yes.
00:03:48Renee! Looks like my stepsister decided to crawl back out of hell.
00:03:52Unfortunately for you, I'm here to kick you two out of my mother's company.
00:03:55Your mother's?
00:03:56You know her name means nothing. Now it belongs to my mom.
00:04:00Speaking of her, great job selling off all the company's shares. I'm sure the new president will reward you for that.
00:04:05How did... how did you...
00:04:08That's ridiculous.
00:04:09I think we should settle this in front of everyone.
00:04:14Here they come.
00:04:18As office manager, it is my pleasure to welcome the new president...
00:04:32As office manager, it is my pleasure to welcome the new president...
00:04:38Miss Mara Brown!
00:04:40Who, me?
00:04:41No doubt. Mrs. Brown was the plan B to take over.
00:04:45Are you sure she's the new president of the company?
00:04:48Who else would it be? Your mother from six feet under?
00:04:55Well then you must have the invitation from Norman.
00:04:58What invitation?
00:04:59For the party tonight. They've invited all their business partners, including Laura Group.
00:05:07Of course I do.
00:05:08Great. Then I will see you there.
00:05:13Let's see how long you can keep up the act.
00:05:38Excuse me? How dare you? I'm the president of the Laura Group.
00:05:42I'm sorry, ma'am. I can only accept invitations.
00:05:49Oh, looks like I forgot it at home. Can I speak with your manager?
00:05:54Just admit it, Mara. You're not the president. You don't have an invitation.
00:05:57Where's your invitation then?
00:06:04Damon, help!
00:06:07This skank is trying to bully me because I didn't have an invitation.
00:06:12Don't worry, honeypuff. As the host of this party, I can guarantee no one's going to mess with you.
00:06:19The whole Norman family doesn't welcome someone like you.
00:06:22The host? So that means you're the heir to the Norman family?
00:06:27Yes, I have a lot going on lately.
00:06:33What the fuck are you doing? Get her out of here.
00:06:35Mr. Norman, is that any way to treat a guest?
00:06:42How did you... No, that has to be a fake.
00:06:53May I?
00:07:01I'm sorry.
00:07:02I'm sorry.
00:07:03I'm sorry.
00:07:04I'm sorry.
00:07:05I'm sorry.
00:07:06I'm sorry.
00:07:07I'm sorry.
00:07:08I'm sorry.
00:07:09I'm sorry.
00:07:11Damon! Stop her!
00:07:18Really?
00:07:26Dorothy, can you look up Damon Norman for me and top the head of the charity group in here?
00:07:41Are you all right, my dear wife?
00:07:45What are you doing here?
00:07:48You're working.
00:07:51What about you?
00:07:52I'm...
00:07:55someone's escort.
00:07:59And you?
00:08:00I'm...
00:08:01I'm...
00:08:02I'm...
00:08:03I'm...
00:08:04I'm...
00:08:05I'm...
00:08:06I'm...
00:08:07I'm...
00:08:08I'm...
00:08:11escort.
00:08:13You do know you're married, right?
00:08:17Of course.
00:08:18I can't just rely on my husband's tips.
00:08:21Your husband sounds like a real jerk.
00:08:23He's the worst.
00:08:25Well, I didn't know this party for dirty rats.
00:08:29Neither did I, till you showed up.
00:08:38Are you really asking me?
00:08:48Are you really asking me?
00:08:49Well, of course I am.
00:08:50I'm the fiance of the heir to the Norman family.
00:08:51How could you do that?
00:08:52Do you know how much that costs?
00:08:53Well, with the price of the champagne that's on it, I would say your fur just increased
00:09:11in value.
00:09:22It's my step-sister.
00:09:23Sorry that you had to see that.
00:09:26No worries.
00:09:27All families have issues.
00:09:28You should have let me deal with her.
00:09:31Well, I couldn't let you get in trouble.
00:09:35In return, you could have a little authentic husband experience with me.
00:09:44I couldn't afford that.
00:09:53Get the necklace from the safe.
00:09:55Someone deserves a gift.
00:10:04Here's a gift for Ms. Brown.
00:10:15Oh, that's me!
00:10:17Oh, it's beautiful!
00:10:18I bet Damon got this for me.
00:10:19Much better than an invitation if I do say so myself.
00:10:20Mara, is that the only way you can make yourself feel valuable?
00:10:21Wait, this is for Ms. Renee Brown?
00:10:22I'm Renee Brown.
00:10:23May I ask who sent this?
00:10:24Sorry, I don't know.
00:10:25I'm Renee Brown.
00:10:26I'm sorry.
00:10:27I'm not sure I can help you.
00:10:28I'm sorry.
00:10:29I'm not sure I can help you.
00:10:30I'm sorry.
00:10:31I'm not sure I can help you.
00:10:32I'm sorry.
00:10:33I'm sorry.
00:10:34I'm sorry.
00:10:35I'm sorry.
00:10:36I'm sorry.
00:10:37I'm sorry.
00:10:38I'm sorry.
00:10:39I'm sorry.
00:10:40I'm sorry.
00:10:41I'm sorry.
00:10:42I'm sorry.
00:10:43I'm sorry.
00:10:44I'm sorry.
00:10:45I'm sorry.
00:10:46I'm sorry.
00:10:47I'm sorry.
00:10:48I'm sorry.
00:10:49I'm sorry.
00:10:50I'm sorry.
00:10:51I'm sorry.
00:10:52I'm sorry.
00:10:53I'm sorry.
00:10:54I'm sorry.
00:10:55I'm sorry.
00:10:56I'm sorry.
00:10:57I'm sorry.
00:10:58I'm sorry.
00:10:59I'm sorry.
00:11:00I'm sorry.
00:11:01I'm sorry.
00:11:02I'm sorry.
00:11:03I'm sorry.
00:11:04I'm sorry.
00:11:05I'm sorry.
00:11:06I'm sorry.
00:11:07I'm sorry.
00:11:08I'm sorry.
00:11:09I'm sorry.
00:11:10I'm sorry.
00:11:11I'm sorry.
00:11:13Says who?
00:11:17She's with me.
00:11:18Oh.
00:11:19A skank and a server.
00:11:21How fitting.
00:11:22But you know what, sister?
00:11:23I did think you would go with someone more of like a washed up, in his 80s type.
00:11:28No thank you.
00:11:29But speaking of losers, you should probably go check in with your fiancé.
00:11:33My fiancé is the heir to the Norman Group.
00:11:37One word and he'll have both of you two out on your asses.
00:11:41I would like to see him try.
00:11:44Damon, come to my rescue please.
00:11:47Hey, what's going on?
00:11:49Hello, Damon.
00:11:51So you're her fiancé?
00:11:53The heir to the Norman Group?
00:11:55Yes.
00:11:56Speak with some respect.
00:11:58He's full of lies.
00:12:00He's not the real heir.
00:12:08He's not the real heir.
00:12:10Are you accusing him?
00:12:11Why don't you let him speak for himself?
00:12:15Enough.
00:12:16Not like this.
00:12:17Let's go.
00:12:18Come on.
00:12:20Let me spell it out for you two.
00:12:22He's the cousin to the heir.
00:12:24Who likes to use the family name to scam people.
00:12:28How do you know that?
00:12:29Because I'm the real heir.
00:12:31Heir's assistant.
00:12:34Right, Damon?
00:12:37And you know the cost of lying.
00:12:40Right, Damon?
00:12:44Yes.
00:12:49Just...
00:12:51Just let me go.
00:12:52Please.
00:12:58Damon may have been lying, Mara Brown, but you're not fooling me.
00:13:06Damon may have been lying, Mara Brown, but you're not fooling me.
00:13:08It is not your time to speak, so I would shut it if I were you.
00:13:15Can you tell him to meet me at the ballroom?
00:13:19May I speak to the president of the Laura Group?
00:13:22That's me.
00:13:23What do you want?
00:13:24Such an honor to finally meet you.
00:13:26Thank you and your company for the generous donation.
00:13:29It will benefit so many children.
00:13:31Oh.
00:13:32Yeah, don't worry about it.
00:13:33It's nothing.
00:13:34Would you prefer the five million as a check or a bank transfer?
00:13:39Five million.
00:13:40What?
00:13:41Your assistant asked me to meet you here.
00:13:43Or...
00:13:45You could just sign your name on this contract.
00:13:50You framed me.
00:13:51Oh.
00:13:52Well, it's not framing if you're the real president.
00:13:55Unless...
00:13:57You're lying.
00:13:59You framed me.
00:14:00Oh.
00:14:01Well, it's not framing if you're the real president.
00:14:03Unless...
00:14:05You're lying.
00:14:09Oh.
00:14:10You know what?
00:14:11I don't feel so well.
00:14:12I don't even think I could pick up that pen.
00:14:14You'll have to find me another day.
00:14:21Mara's a fake.
00:14:22I'm such a fool.
00:14:23Oh, don't be too hard on yourself.
00:14:25I'm just kidding.
00:14:26I'm such a fool.
00:14:27Oh, don't be too hard on yourself.
00:14:29Well, where's the real president?
00:14:34I know.
00:14:37The real president...
00:14:41Is in the office.
00:14:43Can I have a dance with you?
00:14:50It seems like everyone has trust issues tonight.
00:14:53Do you?
00:14:56Like what?
00:14:58Are you really just an assistant?
00:15:01No.
00:15:02No.
00:15:03No.
00:15:04No.
00:15:05No.
00:15:06No.
00:15:07No.
00:15:08No.
00:15:09No.
00:15:10No.
00:15:11Are you really just an assistant?
00:15:18What about you?
00:15:20Are you really an escort?
00:15:22Where's your client?
00:15:27Seems like everyone has secrets.
00:15:31Sometimes the best solution is to just ignore the problem.
00:15:35At least for tonight.
00:15:37I agree.
00:15:38But I have to admit it'll probably be difficult for me going to suppress my curiosity.
00:15:43Then I guess I'll have to keep you busy.
00:15:46I hope so.
00:16:08Stirring all the heart
00:16:11Felt the love I gave no longer
00:16:14Starting alone with you in mind
00:16:18When I learned to find with you
00:16:22A way to hold not lose
00:16:35How generous.
00:16:38How generous.
00:16:42Dude, Lord Group is dumping our shares.
00:16:44Our stock price is crashing.
00:16:46What?
00:16:54Do we know who the president is yet?
00:16:56I checked every news source. I can't find anything on who the president is.
00:17:04That's impossible.
00:17:05What is it?
00:17:08Laura Brown?
00:17:09The founder of Laura Group?
00:17:11Didn't she pass away like five years ago?
00:17:13I'm going to get to the bottom of this.
00:17:16Phase one completed.
00:17:17Mara and her mother had heavily invested in Norman Group
00:17:20so now it's time to watch their assets shrink.
00:17:22By the way, I made the donation in your mother's name.
00:17:25Thank you, Dotty.
00:17:27But I've been meaning to ask
00:17:29won't doing this also affect Laura Group's assets?
00:17:32Nothing ventured, nothing gained.
00:17:35Don't worry.
00:17:36I have a plan.
00:17:38I trust you.
00:17:39But don't overdo it.
00:17:42I have a feeling I'll be meeting the heir of Norman Group very soon.
00:17:46Dear President
00:17:48It's time to teach you a lesson.
00:17:58The informant says the president of Laura Group will be here tonight.
00:18:01I'll flush out this rat.
00:18:03I swear.
00:18:09Renee?
00:18:10Pirate.
00:18:11What are you doing here?
00:18:12I'm here to meet with the real president of the Laura Group.
00:18:16Have you seen...
00:18:20Damn, Paul.
00:18:23I forgot my wallet in the car.
00:18:24Um, why don't you order your drink?
00:18:27It's on me.
00:18:35Are you the one messing with the stocks?
00:18:37You're the president.
00:18:38Shouldn't you be asking yourself that?
00:18:40Well, I just wanted to let you know
00:18:42that we'll be selling off some art pieces
00:18:45to cover the losses.
00:18:46And yeah, that's your mom's last piece.
00:18:49The bid goes for one dollar.
00:18:57And yeah, that's your mom's last piece.
00:19:01The bid goes for one dollar.
00:19:04I hope you have your invitation for the auction.
00:19:09You crazy bitch!
00:19:13Things are different now, sister.
00:19:15I'm gonna get every single one of her pieces back.
00:19:17This isn't over!
00:19:23Mom, I'm gonna protect your artwork and your company.
00:19:27I promise.
00:19:28Hey, who's got you so down, chica?
00:19:31Leave me alone.
00:19:33You need my company.
00:19:39Leave her alone!
00:19:47Who the fuck?
00:19:48I'm her husband.
00:19:50I get it.
00:19:51Someone's unsatisfied.
00:19:53Fuck!
00:19:59Are you alright?
00:20:01Fine.
00:20:08You feeling confident?
00:20:09Let's see.
00:20:14Let us go.
00:20:15Unless you want to see some blood.
00:20:19Run.
00:20:29Fuck.
00:20:41They're not down there.
00:20:44Alright.
00:20:45Let's go.
00:20:53They're gone.
00:20:55Just to be safe, I think I should hold your hands a little longer.
00:21:01Is just holding my hands enough?
00:21:04Not really.
00:21:06What else do you want?
00:21:25The auction's tomorrow.
00:21:2790% of the items are your mother's belongings, starting at $1.
00:21:34They're trying to humiliate her.
00:21:36And we can't let them get away with this.
00:21:38Yeah, but Mara's definitely gonna have some tricks up her sleeve.
00:21:41Then we need a white knight.
00:21:47Norman!
00:21:54Norman!
00:22:00Are you okay?
00:22:01You sounded urgent on the phone.
00:22:03I need to ask you a favor.
00:22:05As long as I can make it happen.
00:22:07I need you to pretend to be the heir of Norman Group.
00:22:15You want me to impersonate the heir of Norman?
00:22:18Leia's assistant.
00:22:19There's no one better for the job.
00:22:21I can ask him for real.
00:22:23The items were supposed to be my mother's legacy.
00:22:25And then she was kicked out of the group that she founded by Mara's mother.
00:22:29And now they're trying to cash in on her belongings.
00:22:32I need the heir to back you at the auction.
00:22:35You're my only choice.
00:22:42Since you're Laura's daughter, do you know who the new president is?
00:22:48Of course.
00:22:50Who is it?
00:22:54Me.
00:23:01Who is it?
00:23:04Me.
00:23:10I'm sorry, that was a bad joke.
00:23:14Thank goodness you're not a stand-up comedian.
00:23:20Enough said.
00:23:23I can help you to get those things back.
00:23:42Are you being watched?
00:23:44Not yet.
00:23:45Did I really have to dress like a secret agent?
00:23:48Mara's met you already.
00:23:50She might recognize you.
00:23:51No way.
00:23:53In this outfit?
00:23:55I barely even recognize myself.
00:24:07Renee.
00:24:19Renee.
00:24:21It's been a long time.
00:24:23Oh, not long enough.
00:24:25Did you even think about saying hello when you got back?
00:24:27Well, I don't exactly fit in with a family of thieves and liars.
00:24:30Isn't that right, Miss President?
00:24:33Oh, sharp tongue just like your mother.
00:24:35I wonder how many auction items you're going to get to buy before you deplete your pocketbook.
00:24:40I wonder what the value of a useless dead body would bring to tonight.
00:24:45Don't worry.
00:24:47The only thing you can steal from my mother and I is this coward.
00:24:53Welcome to today's auction.

00:25:15$201,000.

00:25:27Sold!
00:25:28Congratulations, guest number eight, who is the heir of the Norman Group.
00:25:42Sold!
00:25:43Congratulations, Mr. Norman, on securing all the items thus far.
00:25:47Mom, I have to go for him.
00:25:49Oh, dear.
00:25:50Don't rush it.
00:25:51You've got to play hard to get.
00:25:53For the final item this evening, we have a set of matching rings.
00:25:58My mother's wedding rings.
00:25:59They will start at just $1.
00:26:04$100,000.
00:26:09Do I hear another bid?
00:26:12Sold!
00:26:13Congratulations on securing yet another item.
00:26:22Before you start talking big, you might want to check your bank account.
00:26:25Yeah, you're screwed.
00:26:27Even Norman's heir is on our side.
00:26:30I wouldn't be so sure about that.
00:26:31Congratulations, Ms. Brown.
00:26:33Mr. Norman has transferred all the items in your name.
00:26:36Here's the transfer document.
00:26:41Who's screwed now?
00:26:51Have you met this heir in person?
00:26:53Yeah, why would Mr. Norman help you?
00:26:55Mr. Norman!
00:26:59Wait a second.
00:27:01I knew it! You're the assistant!
00:27:04Assistant? How is the assistant going to pay for all this?
00:27:08About that, according to my mother's will, these items are always mine.
00:27:13And now they're finally back where they belong.
00:27:15I see that.
00:27:18Chloe, I have to thank you for holding this auction.
00:27:20Otherwise, I never would have known where you'd hidden them.
00:27:23Oh, that orphanage has taught you quite a bit, hasn't it?
00:27:33All the items today will go to Renee Brown.
00:27:53I wouldn't have gotten these back so quickly if it wasn't for you.
00:27:56I was just doing my job, as your husband.
00:28:01I have something for you.
00:28:05Even though this is a marriage of convenience, we should still have rings.
00:28:10Are you sure? It was your mom's.
00:28:13More than ever.
00:28:21Renee Brown.
00:28:25Will you marry me?
00:28:30You're too late.
00:28:33I'm already taken.
00:28:37By you.
00:28:44By you.
00:28:50By you.
00:29:20By you.
00:29:38Hello?
00:29:39Wake up, Renee.
00:29:40Norman Group is fighting back.
00:29:42They're buying up our stock in large quantities.
00:29:44What?
00:29:47Are you sure about that?
00:29:49I'm done lying to her.
00:29:50I'm ready to tell her that I'm the one in charge of the Norman Group.
00:30:01Something urgent?
00:30:02Yeah, it's... I'll explain later.
00:30:11Maybe next time.
00:30:19I didn't see your reservation, Grandpa.
00:30:22I didn't know I needed permission to come to my old office.
00:30:26How's Florida?
00:30:27Not bad.
00:30:29Until I found out that you're married to somebody I don't even know...
00:30:34Yep.
00:30:35My ship has sailed.
00:30:37Nothing you can do about it.
00:30:39Is that so?
00:30:41I've already called Fiona back from Europe.
00:30:44Get ready for your marriage with her.
00:30:46I'm already the head of the Norman Group.
00:30:49Not even you can interfere with my life anymore.
00:30:55You don't know what I'm capable of, young man.
00:31:04It's a good thing we reacted quickly.
00:31:06Damage wasn't too severe.
00:31:09How come we're meeting here and not at your house?
00:31:13Barrett's there.
00:31:14Wait, are you two living together?
00:31:15No, not yet.
00:31:17Still haven't told him.
00:31:23Hello?
00:31:24Are you available tonight?
00:31:26I have something to tell you.
00:31:36What happened?
00:31:37Nothing. Just some family issues.
00:31:39Well, I'm an expert in that.
00:31:41If you are having family issues, you could always come stay at my place.
00:31:47Are you asking me to move in with you?
00:31:50Will you?
00:31:53Barry!
00:31:54I missed you so much.
00:31:56Fiona!
00:32:05It's been so long and you still haven't called me.
00:32:08It's been so long and you still like black coffee.
00:32:11No, thank you.
00:32:13I admire your devotion.
00:32:16And who is she?
00:32:18This is Renee. She's my...
00:32:19His blind date.
00:32:21Really?
00:32:22Yeah.
00:32:24But I have to think twice about whether to continue.
00:32:27Well, I guess I've been gone for too long.
00:32:30But I came back to marry Barrett.
00:32:32Isn't that right?
00:32:35Fiona, I'm already married and Renee...
00:32:37I know.
00:32:38But Benjamin told me that you're willing to divorce her anytime for me.
00:32:43Is that so?
00:32:44Good to know.
00:32:47Excuse me for a moment.
00:32:49You two can wrap it up.
00:32:52Renee, let me explain first.
00:32:54Explain what?
00:32:56You have a gravely ill grandfather, you have to marry a wealthy woman to pay for his treatment?
00:33:01That is such a cliche, even for a soap opera.
00:33:04Wait!
00:33:05Wait!
00:33:06It's not true.
00:33:14Oh, what's going on?
00:33:16You two had a fight?
00:33:17None of your business.
00:33:19Barry, I haven't had time to book a hotel yet.
00:33:22Why don't I stay at your place?
00:33:25Such a gentleman would never say no.
00:33:28Sweet dreams, both of you.
00:33:31Enough! I'm not going to divorce Renee and I'm certainly not going to get married to you.
00:33:34So she's your quickie wife?
00:33:37Now I know why Benjamin called me.
00:33:39She's not a quickie.
00:33:41She's the love of my life.
00:34:01You invited me.
00:34:03No taking backsies.
00:34:31Alright.
00:34:36I thought you were going to leave me.
00:34:39No chance.
00:34:46The thing I fear the most is deceit and betrayal.
00:34:51I know.
00:34:53And I won't do either of those things.
00:34:56Do you promise?
00:34:58I promise.
00:35:01No one kisses me right now.
00:35:17I don't recall ever seeing any jokes in there.
00:35:19No, man.
00:35:20I moved in with Renee.
00:35:22Oh, yeah.
00:35:23Totally normal thing to do.
00:35:25For a married couple.
00:35:26Okay, look.
00:35:27I'm just waiting for the right time to properly propose.
00:35:30What do you think about me purchasing the Laura group as a gift for her?
00:35:34You think she'll like it?
00:35:36Oh, my God.
00:35:37I hate rich people.
00:35:39Come on, man.
00:35:40I mean it.
00:35:41Look, it was founded by her mom, right?
00:35:43I know that we still don't know who the president is,
00:35:45but the company deserves to be back in the hands of its rightful owner.
00:35:49Alright.
00:35:51Romeo.
00:35:53The front desk handed this to me.
00:35:55Said it was from someone anonymous.
00:36:00Wait a second.
00:36:02Isn't this the room that me and Renee first met?
00:36:05Don't tell me she's planning on proposing officially as well.
00:36:09We'll see.
00:36:11Renee?
00:36:13Oh, hi.
00:36:15Renee?
00:36:16Oh.
00:36:17Hi.
00:36:18I guess.
00:36:19Hey.
00:36:25Hey.
00:36:27What's up?
00:36:35I am.
00:36:49I just keep loving you more.
00:36:52Me too.
00:36:54What the hell?
00:36:56I can take you there.
00:36:57Hey, don't worry.
00:36:59What happens here, stays here.
00:37:02No, you're psychotic.
00:37:05Does she know who you really are?
00:37:07You two are from completely different worlds.
00:37:10There's no future for you and her.
00:37:12Thanks for your input.
00:37:14If you leave, you're gonna regret it.
00:37:16If I stay, I'll regret it.
00:37:18Don't think about pulling any more tricks.
00:37:20I can pull all of your company's investments in a second.
00:37:35You have something for me?
00:37:48I'm sorry, but you deserve to know.
00:37:51I know you're married to him.
00:37:55And I said no at first, but as you know, his passion is unstoppable.
00:38:02Don't be sad over a man who doesn't love you.
00:38:09Is that it?
00:38:11What do you mean?
00:38:13Are you okay with your husband cheating on you?
00:38:15Why not?
00:38:17I already told Renee everything.
00:38:20Your plan failed.
00:38:23Better luck next time.
00:38:26No, stop.
00:38:28That won't work on me.
00:38:30You could make some real money on OnlyFans, though.
00:38:33Go back to Europe, Fiona.
00:38:35And don't ever come back.
00:38:38Renee, do you really trust your husband?
00:38:42Tell him, Father.
00:38:44I know he has his secrets.
00:38:52And I've got mine.
00:38:54We've promised to give each other space.
00:38:57Enjoy your flight, Fiona.
00:39:23Finally.
00:39:27What's got you so happy?
00:39:32You don't have to wait for tonight.
00:39:33You can't tell me no.
00:39:35Gotta keep some level of surprise and suspense in our relationship.
00:39:38Get a drama queen.
00:39:44Renee, Norman Group just became our largest shareholder.
00:39:46I need you at the office now.
00:39:50Norman.
00:39:58Norman.
00:40:03What's wrong? Something happen?
00:40:05Something urgent just came up. I gotta go.
00:40:08Don't forget to be back by seven.
00:40:10I've got something important planned.
00:40:17What's going on?
00:40:18What did Norman Group buy into our company?
00:40:20Mara and Chloe sold their shares to Norman Group to cash out.
00:40:23Plus the other shares that Norman bought at high prices.
00:40:27Norman Group now owns 50% of the company.
00:40:30Well, do we know who's behind this?
00:40:33The company is now expecting their president out there.
00:40:36Are you sure about this?
00:40:39What are you doing here?
00:40:48I've been meaning to introduce myself properly.
00:40:50I'm the president of Laura Group.
00:40:53Even if you are the president, I know that you don't have any power because of the Norman Group.
00:40:58What a shame.
00:40:59The Norman Group is well on its way to taking over this company.
00:41:03I wonder how long your struggle will be before your defeat.
00:41:06Security, kick her out.
00:41:08I don't want her going anywhere near the office.
00:41:10Don't let her even take a picture.
00:41:12No, until Norman Group holds their shareholder meeting, I still have control of this company.
00:41:15Let me go.
00:41:16Are you really going to let them steal from my mom again?
00:41:18It still belongs to our family.
00:41:21Family.
00:41:22How can you use that word, you coward?
00:41:25Well, it looks like the wild child is lacking etiquette.
00:41:29I think you need a lesson.
00:41:32Don't you dare.
00:41:33What?
00:41:39Don't you dare.
00:41:40What?
00:41:45This is my final warning.
00:41:48This is a Brown family matter.
00:41:50You need not get involved.
00:41:51Funny, I don't see myself standing in the Brown family household.
00:41:55Is the heir's assistant always so audacious?
00:41:58Actually, I'm here on behalf of Mr. Norman.
00:42:02Are you serious?
00:42:04You heard me right.
00:42:05Now, I assume you would like to clear out these three?
00:42:08I am so sorry, but since you've traded away all of your shares,
00:42:11you no longer have any stake in the Laura Group.
00:42:15Please leave.
00:42:17Let's go.
00:42:18Ladies, let's go.
00:42:22Let me get this straight.
00:42:23Norman Group, as the largest shareholder of Laura Group,
00:42:26wants me to be president?
00:42:28Indeed.
00:42:29Well, I don't understand why they would do that.
00:42:31I don't have any connection to them.
00:42:34Except...
00:42:35Let me get this straight.
00:42:36Norman Group, as the largest shareholder of Laura Group,
00:42:39wants me to be president?
00:42:41Indeed.
00:42:42Well, I don't understand why they would do that.
00:42:44I don't have any connection to them.
00:42:46Except...
00:42:55I don't have any connection to them.
00:42:58Except...

00:46:30I don't know what's going on I don't know what's going on
00:46:40get up your team in here I was article adapted and any rumors quashed
00:46:43immediately
00:46:47you have a visitor not now
00:46:51So the article was true.
00:46:56Let me explain.
00:46:58I was going to tell you earlier, but then I found out that you were the...
00:47:01Well, found out that I was the president of the company you acquired?
00:47:04Your defeated opponent, right?
00:47:06Not true.
00:47:07Then what is the truth?
00:47:08Were you afraid to hurt my pride?
00:47:10Or was it just fun for you to watch me be fooled?
00:47:13You don't get it, Renee.
00:47:14I acquired the Laura Group for you as a gift.
00:47:17I know how important it is to you and your mom.
00:47:19Don't talk about my mother.
00:47:21I don't get it.
00:47:22You were so excited about this before you knew who I was, so why not now?
00:47:25Because I don't need your mercy.
00:47:27I had a plan.
00:47:28I was capable of doing it myself.
00:47:30I was your husband.
00:47:31I wanted to help you to carry the burden.
00:47:33Is that so wrong?
00:47:35No.
00:47:37Not anymore.
00:47:40What's that supposed to mean?
00:47:46Have your lawyer contact mine.
00:47:48We're getting a divorce.
00:47:50Renee.
00:47:58Did you really mean it about the divorce?
00:48:00Shouldn't you two talk things over?
00:48:01What is there to talk about?
00:48:03We're just different kinds of people.
00:48:06Pretty much the same to me.
00:48:07Both executives, both enjoy identity games.
00:48:10I thought that you were supposed to be on my side.
00:48:12I am.
00:48:15I feel like you're being a little too impulsive.
00:48:17If Barrett had known you as the president, maybe he wouldn't have acted like this.
00:48:20Maybe he would have assisted you in a different way.
00:48:22Maybe that's my issue.
00:48:26The Browns think money can solve anything.
00:48:29Including love and dignity.
00:48:33I don't know if Barrett's like that too.
00:48:36You do.
00:48:38You know deep down Barrett isn't like that.
00:48:48Should I trust you, Barrett?
00:48:59Renee.
00:49:01What do I have to do to get you back?
00:49:24You're back.
00:49:26I'm sorry.
00:49:27I did it out of love for you.
00:49:29Please forgive me.
00:49:30It's okay.
00:49:31I have my faults too.
00:49:33So you're not divorcing me?
00:49:35Why should I?
00:49:37I'm not dreaming, am I?
00:49:43No.
00:49:45This is real.
00:49:49Let's get you to bed.
00:49:58Relax.
00:50:00Come here, Renee.
00:50:29Fiona.
00:50:31What the hell are you doing here?
00:50:37What the hell are you doing here?
00:50:40Don't you remember?
00:50:42It was you who suggested we get together last night.
00:50:44What?
00:50:45No way.
00:50:46Last night it was...
00:50:47It was Renee.
00:50:50It was you.
00:50:52Don't get close to me.
00:50:56And keep your mouth shut.
00:50:57If you don't, I won't let you live it down.
00:51:21Where are the photos?
00:51:26You seem not mad.
00:51:28He made his decision.
00:51:30Aren't you guys getting a divorce?
00:51:32You seem well informed.
00:51:34Regardless, Barrett is still a shareholder in my company and it's my job to protect our reputation from people like you.
00:51:42Well, I admire your sanity.
00:51:48Have a drink with me and I'll give you all the photos.
00:51:51And I'll leave Barrett alone.
00:52:07Did you drug me?
00:52:10Yes, I did.
00:52:13And by the way, I was the one who wrote the article revealing Barrett's identity.
00:52:31Renee?
00:52:40Remember to sign these papers.
00:52:42The company rightfully belongs to you.
00:52:45That was my promise.
00:52:48Maybe my last one.
00:53:03I love you.
00:53:10Mr. Norman?
00:53:11What are you doing here?
00:53:12Where's Renee?
00:53:13I need your help.
00:53:14Renee's missing.
00:53:15Missing?
00:53:31Do we really have to?
00:53:33She's still my daughter.
00:53:34Zip it.
00:53:36You want the money or not?
00:53:37Dad, as long as she's willing to sign, we'll let her live.
00:53:50You must be starving.
00:53:53You know I'm allergic to nuts, right?
00:54:00Look, Renee, just sign the documents.
00:54:04Sign your shares over to Chloe and I guarantee she'll let you go.
00:54:09Let me go?
00:54:10Did you give my mom that choice?
00:54:13Just kill me if you dare.
00:54:26My detectives are still searching, but her last location update was 12 hours ago.
00:54:31All right, keep me in the loop.
00:54:40What are you doing here?
00:54:41Barry, why do you look so stressed?
00:54:45How did you get in?
00:54:46I just walked in as your fiancé.
00:54:49Get out.
00:54:51You're the last person I want to see right now.
00:54:57Kick me out and you'll never see her again.
00:55:03Where is she?
00:55:05She's alive.
00:55:07For now.
00:55:08But only if you agree to one condition.
00:55:12What do you want?
00:55:15Marry me.
00:55:23What do you want?
00:55:26Marry me.
00:55:29You're sick.
00:55:30You kidnapped Renee just so that you could marry me?
00:55:34Don't flatter yourself.
00:55:36It was never you that I wanted.
00:55:38What do you mean?
00:55:40Well, ever since I was born, everyone swore to me that I was going to be the future Mrs. Norman.
00:55:46So this is all just about power.
00:55:48Exactly.
00:55:50Blame it on being the head of the Norman Company.
00:55:53You were always destined to be my husband.
00:56:00Take your time to think about it.
00:56:02But not too long.
00:56:04She's got a lot of enemies.
00:56:12Enemies?
00:56:16Paul, find Damon for me.
00:56:18Right now.
00:56:25Go after him!
00:56:31Just give me three days and I'll get your money back, I promise.
00:56:35Where is Maura Brown?
00:56:37I wouldn't know.
00:56:38She broke up with me a long time ago.
00:56:42Do you want me to call your creditors over here?
00:56:44Okay, okay.
00:56:45But I swear I had nothing to do with the kidnapping.
00:56:49How much do you know?
00:56:50Maura asked me to help her.
00:56:52I didn't.
00:56:53I didn't.
00:56:54Wait.
00:56:55Then how could you know where she is?
00:56:56I have Maura's GPS.
00:56:59This is her location.
00:57:13We can't tip them off until we make our move.
00:57:21I agree to get engaged with you.
00:57:26Paul.
00:57:27You need a new suit.
00:57:49Didn't Miss Norman just get married?
00:57:51Why is he getting engaged again?
00:57:53It's a business marriage.
00:57:54It's pretty common.
00:57:58If you're going to act, do it right.
00:58:01I'm not as fake as you.
00:58:03I can't pull it off.
00:58:06Make me happy and that woman might stay alive.
00:58:16Excuse me, Your Majesty.
00:58:17I have a very important phone call to make.
00:58:20I'll be back.
00:58:32I need her dead.
00:58:34Now.
00:58:41I have a very important phone call to make.
00:58:43I'll be back.
00:58:50Here's the keys to her rental.
00:58:51It'll keep them from spotting you.
00:58:52Thanks, man.
00:58:53Yeah.
00:58:54I really appreciate you coming through for this.
00:58:57You gotta hurry.
00:58:58Okay, I don't want to be here for too long.
00:59:00Go.
00:59:01Thanks, buddy.
00:59:02Okay.
00:59:03Go.
00:59:04Hurry.
00:59:10Go kill her.
00:59:11Fiona will hand the company over to us.
00:59:13Do it fast, Dad.
00:59:14I'll meet you outside.
00:59:20I'm so sorry, Renee.
00:59:32I'm so sorry, Renee.
00:59:36Sorry?
00:59:38Did you ever feel sorry for my mother?
00:59:40It wasn't my fault.
00:59:41I had no choice.
00:59:42But you did.
00:59:43And you chose to sacrifice her.
00:59:47Just do it.
00:59:48I'm ready.
01:00:03Renee.
01:00:05Oh, my God.
01:00:06Are you all right?
01:00:09Let's get you out of here.
01:00:10Not so fast.
01:00:13Toodaloo, lovebirds.
01:00:23What took you so long?
01:00:33Where's Barrett?
01:00:37I'm here.
01:00:48Not so fast.
01:00:51Toodaloo, lovebirds.
01:01:01Game over.
01:01:09You're alive?
01:01:10You seem surprised.
01:01:14What happened to you?
01:01:15Why don't you ask Fiona?
01:01:16I didn't do anything.
01:01:17This was a setup.
01:01:19Maybe you should ask them instead.
01:01:31Uncle Ben, help me.
01:01:33Weren't you always on my side?
01:01:36Well, I'm no longer your head of the family.
01:01:40Do whatever you need to do.
01:01:43Hey, let go of me.
01:01:50This isn't over.
01:01:58Till death do us part.
01:02:02Look.
01:02:03Our stock just hit an all-time high.
01:02:04Nice.
01:02:05Double that and it might be worth half our price.
01:02:06Well, give me a year and I'll definitely surpass you.
01:02:07Mm-hmm.
01:02:08Sure thing.
01:02:09I'll see you later.
01:02:10Bye.
01:02:11Bye.
01:02:12Bye.
01:02:13Bye.
01:02:14Bye.
01:02:15Bye.
01:02:16Bye.
01:02:17Bye.
01:02:18Bye.
01:02:19Bye.
01:02:20Bye.
01:02:21Bye.
01:02:22Bye.
01:02:23Bye.
01:02:24Bye.
01:02:25Bye.
01:02:26Bye.
01:02:27Bye.
01:02:28Bye.
01:02:29Bye.
01:02:30Bye.
01:02:31Bye.
01:02:32Bye.
01:02:33Bye.
01:02:34Bye.
01:02:35Bye.
01:02:36Bye.
01:02:37Bye.
01:02:38Bye.
01:02:39Sure thing.
01:02:40Miss Brown, about the divorce application you submitted a few months ago.
01:02:41We won't need it.
01:02:42What did you say, Miss Brown?
01:02:43Should I do this thing?
01:02:44What do you say, Miss Bonham?
01:02:46Shall we do this thing?
