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?
00:06:41How did you... No, that has to be a fake!
00:06:51May I?
00:06:57You're not the president, are you?
00:06:59No, I'm not.
00:07:00You're not?
00:07:01No, I'm not.
00:07:02You're not?
00:07:03No, I'm not.
00:07:04You're not?
00:07:05No, I'm not.
00:07:06You're not?
00:07:07No, I'm not.
00:07:08No, I'm not.
00:07:10Damon! Stop her!
00:07:17Really?
00:07:25Dorothy, can you look up Damon Norman for me and top the head of the charity group in here?
00:07:40I'm sorry.
00:07:52Are you alright, my dear wife?
00:07:56What are you doing here?
00:07:59You're working.
00:08:02What about you?
00:08:04I'm...
00:08:06Someone's escort.
00:08:10You do know you're married, right?
00:08:13Of course. I can't just rely on my husband's tips.
00:08:18Your husband sounds like a real jerk.
00:08:19He's the worst.
00:08:21Well, I didn't know this party for dirty rats.
00:08:25Neither did I, until you showed up.
00:08:36Clean that up.
00:08:42Are you really asking me?
00:08:47Are you really asking me?
00:08:48Well, of course I am. I'm the fiance of the heir to the Norman family.
00:08:52The Norman family?
00:09:04How could you do that? Do you know how much that costs?
00:09:07Well, with the price of the champagne that's on it, I would say your fur just increased in value.
00:09:11In value.
00:09:21It's my stepsister. Sorry that you had to see that.
00:09:25No worries. All families have issues. You should have let me deal with her.
00:09:30Well, I couldn't let you get in trouble.
00:09:33In return, you could have a little authentic husband experience with me.
00:09:40I couldn't afford that.
00:09:49Get the necklace from the safe. Someone deserves a gift.
00:10:03Here's a gift for Ms. Brown.
00:10:16Oh, that's me. Oh, it's beautiful. I bet Damon got this for me.
00:10:23Much better than an invitation, if I do say so myself.
00:10:27Mara, is that the only way you can make yourself feel valuable?
00:10:29Wait, this is for Ms. Renee Brown?
00:10:34I'm Renee Brown.
00:10:38May I ask who sent this?
00:10:40Sorry, I don't know.
00:10:45You bitch! You set this entire thing up with a fake necklace and everything just to embarrass me!
00:10:51Mara, the only person embarrassing you here is yourself.
00:10:54No one has ever given you a gift because you are an unwanted loser!
00:11:00Unwanted? Says who?
00:11:09Unwanted? Says who?
00:11:15She's with me.
00:11:17Oh, a skank and a server. How fitting.
00:11:20But you know what, sister? I did think you would go with someone more of like a washed up, in his 80s type.
00:11:25No, thank you. But speaking of losers, you should probably go check in with your fiancé.
00:11:30My fiancé is the heir to the Norman Group. One word and he'll have both of you two out on your asses.
00:11:38I would like to see him try.
00:11:41Damon, come to my rescue, please.
00:11:44Hey, what's going on?
00:11:45Hello, Damon. So you're her fiancé, the heir to the Norman Group?
00:11:50Yes, speak with some respect.
00:11:53He's full of lies. He's not the real heir.
00:12:04He's not the real heir.
00:12:06Are you accusing him?
00:12:08Why don't you let him speak for himself?
00:12:11Enough.
00:12:12Let's go, come on.
00:12:15Let me spell it out for you two. He's the cousin to the heir, who likes to use the family name to scam people.
00:12:23How do you know that?
00:12:25Because I'm the real heir. Heir's assistant. Right, Damon?
00:12:34And you know the cost of lying, right, Damon?
00:12:37And you know the cost of lying, right, Damon?
00:12:43Yes.
00:12:48Just, just let me go, please.
00:12:57Damon may have been lying to Mara Brown, but you're not fooling me.
00:12:59Damon may have been lying to Mara Brown, but you're not fooling me.
00:13:06Damon may have been lying to Mara Brown, but you're not fooling me.
00:13:09It 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? Thank you.
00:13:19May I speak to the president of the Laura Group?
00:13:22That's me. What do you want?
00:13:24Such an honor to finally meet you. Thank you and your company for the generous donation.
00:13:29You benefit so many children.
00:13:31Oh, yeah, don't worry about it. It's nothing.
00:13:34Would you prefer the five million as a check or a bank transfer?
00:13:38Five million. What?
00:13:41Your assistant asked me to meet you here.
00:13:43Or you could just sign your name on this contract.
00:13:49You framed me.
00:13:51Oh, well it's not framing if you're the real president. Unless you're lying.
00:14:00Oh, you know what? I don't feel so well. I don't even think I could pick up that pen.
00:14:05You'll have to find me another day.
00:14:11Mara's a fake. I'm such a fool.
00:14:14Oh, don't be too hard on yourself.
00:14:16Well, where's the real president?
00:14:18I don't know. I don't know.
00:14:20I don't know.
00:14:22I don't know.
00:14:24I don't know.
00:14:26I don't know.
00:14:27Don't be too hard on yourself.
00:14:29Well, where's the real president?
00:14:34I know.
00:14:36The real president is in the office.
00:14:55Can I have a dance with you?
00:14:57Sure.
00:15:02Seems like everyone has trust issues tonight.
00:15:05Do you?
00:15:08Like what?
00:15:10Are 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.
00:15:30Sometimes the best solution is to just ignore the problem.
00:15:34At least for tonight.
00:15:36I agree.
00:15:38But I have to admit it'll probably be difficult for me going to suppress my curiosity.
00:15:42Then I guess I'll have to keep you busy.
00:15:45How so?
00:15:57I'll see you later.
00:16:28How generous.
00:16:36Dude, Lord Group is dumping our shares.
00:16:39Our stock price is crashing.
00:16:41What?
00:16:49Do we know who the president is yet?
00:16:51I checked every news source. I can't find anyone.
00:16:53I'm sorry.
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.
00:17:03That's impossible.
00:17:05What is it?
00:17:07Laura 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.
00:17:15Phase 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.
00:17:21By the way, I made the donation in your mother's name.
00:17:24Thank you, Dottie.
00:17:26But I've been meaning to ask,
00:17:28won't doing this also affect Laura Group's assets?
00:17:31Nothing ventured, nothing gained.
00:17:34Don't worry. I have a plan.
00:17:37I trust you.
00:17:39But don't overdo it.
00:17:41I have a feeling I'll be meeting the heir of Norman Group very soon.
00:17:45Dear President,
00:17:47it's time to teach you a lesson.
00:17:49It'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.
00:18:08Renee?
00:18:10Parrot, what are you doing here?
00:18:12I'm here to meet with the real president of the Laura Group.
00:18:15Have you seen...
00:18:20Damn, Paul.
00:18:22I forgot my wallet in the car.
00:18:25Why 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.
00:18:39Shouldn't you be asking yourself that?
00:18:41Well, I just wanted to let you know
00:18:43that we'll be selling off some art pieces to 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.
00:19:00The 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.
00:19:14I'm gonna get every single one of her pieces back.
00:19:17This isn't over!
00:19:22Mom, I'm gonna protect your artwork and your company.
00:19:26I promise.
00:19:29Hey, who's got you so down, chica?
00:19:32Leave me alone.
00:19:34You need my company.
00:19:40Leave her alone!
00:19:45Who the fuck?
00:19:47I'm her husband.
00:19:49I get it.
00:19:51Someone's unsatisfied.
00:19:53Fuck!
00:20:03Are you alright?
00:20:05I'm fine, thank you.
00:20:14You feeling confident?
00:20:16Let's see.
00:20:20Let us go.
00:20:22Unless you want to see some blood.
00:20:25Run.
00:20:41They're not there now.
00:20:44Let's go.
00:20:52They're gone.
00:20:55Just to be safe, I think I should hold your hands a little longer.
00:21:00Is just holding my hands enough?
00:21:03Not really.
00:21:06What else do you want?
00:21:15I love you.
00:21:18I love you.
00:21:20I love you.
00:21:26The auction's tomorrow.
00:21:2890% 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.
00:21:45Norman.
00:21:57Are you okay?
00:21:59You sounded urgent on the phone.
00:22:01I need to ask you a favor.
00:22:03As long as I can make it happen.
00:22:05I need you to pretend to be the heir of Norman Group.
00:22:08You want me to impersonate the heir of Norman?
00:22:11Heir's assistant.
00:22:13There's no one better for the job.
00:22:15I can ask him for real.
00:22:17These items were supposed to be my mother's legacy.
00:22:20And then she was kicked out of the group that she founded by Mara's mother.
00:22:24And now they're trying to cash in on her belongings.
00:22:26I need the heir to back you at the auction.
00:22:29You're my only choice.
00:22:32I'm sorry.
00:22:34You're my only choice.
00:22:41Since you're Laura's daughter, do you know who the new president is?
00:22:47Of course.
00:22:49Who is it?
00:22:55Me.
00:23:01Who is it?
00:23:04Me.
00:23:11I'm sorry. That was a bad joke.
00:23:15Thank goodness that you're not a stand-up comedian.
00:23:20Enough said.
00:23:22I can help you to get those things back.
00:23:34Are you being watched?
00:23:36Not yet.
00:23:38Did I really have to dress like a secret agent?
00:23:41Mara's met you already.
00:23:43She might recognize you.
00:23:45No way.
00:23:47In this outfit?
00:23:49I barely even recognize myself.
00:24:04Renee.
00:24:16Renee.
00:24:18It's been a long time.
00:24:20Oh, not long enough.
00:24:22Did you even think about saying hello when you got back?
00:24:25Well, I don't exactly fit in with the family of thieves and liars.
00:24:28Isn't that right, Miss President?
00:24:30Oh, sure.
00:24:31Sharp tongue, just like your mother.
00:24:33I wonder how many auction items you're going to get to buy before you deplete your pocketbook.
00:24:38I wonder what the value of a useless dead body would bring to tonight.
00:24:43Don't worry.
00:24:45The only thing you can steal from my mother and I is this coward.
00:24:51Welcome to today's auction.
00:24:53Up first, we have a painting by Laura Brown.
00:24:57And we will start the bidding at...
00:24:59$1.
00:25:07$100,000.
00:25:10$101,000.
00:25:12$200,000.
00:25:14$201,000.
00:25:18$500,000.
00:25:24Sold! Congratulations!
00:25:26Sold! Congratulations, guest number eight, who is the heir of the Norman Group.
00:25:41Sold! Congratulations, Mr. Norman, on securing all the items thus far.
00:25:47Mom, I have to go for him.
00:25:49Oh, dear. Don't rush it. You've got to play hard to get.
00:25:51For the final item this evening, we have a set of matching rings.
00:25:56My mother's wedding rings.
00:25:58They will start at just $1.
00:26:02$100,000.
00:26:07Do I hear another bid?
00:26:10Sold! Congratulations on securing yet another item.
00:26:21Before you start talking big, you might want to check your bank account.
00:26:25Yeah, you're screwed. Even Norman's heir is on our side.
00:26:29I wouldn't be so sure about that.
00:26:31Congratulations, Ms. Brown. Mr. Norman has transferred all the items in your name.
00:26:36Here's the transfer document.
00:26:41Who's screwed now?
00:26:43Knock, knock, knock.
00:26:51Have you met this heir in person?
00:26:53Yeah, why would Mr. Norman help you?
00:26:55Mr. Norman!
00:26:58Wait a second.
00:27:01I knew it! You're the assistant!
00:27:04Assistant? How is the assistant going to pay for all this?
00:27:07About that. According to my mother's will, these items were always mine.
00:27:12And now they're finally back where they belong.
00:27:14I see that.
00:27:17Chloe, I have to thank you for holding this auction.
00:27:20Otherwise, I never would have known where you'd hidden them.
00:27:23That orphanage has taught you quite a bit, hasn't it?
00:27:33All the items today will go to Renee Brown.
00:27:51Thank you. I wouldn't have gotten these back so quickly if it wasn't for you.
00:27:55I was just doing my job, as your husband.
00:28:00I have something for you.
00:28:01Even though this is a marriage of convenience, we should still have rings.
00:28:06Are you sure? It was your mom's.
00:28:09More than ever.
00:28:18Renee Brown.
00:28:22Will you marry me?
00:28:27You're too late.
00:28:29I'm already taken.
00:28:34By you.
00:28:40By you.
00:28:58I love you.
00:29:29Hello?
00:29:31Wake up, Renee!
00:29:33Norman Group is fighting back!
00:29:35They're buying up our stock in large quantities!
00:29:37What?
00:29:40Are you sure about that?
00:29:42I'm done lying to her.
00:29:44I'm ready to tell her that I'm the one in charge of the Norman Group.
00:29:46Are you sure about that?
00:29:48I'm done lying to her.
00:29:50I'm ready to tell her that I'm the one in charge of the Norman Group.
00:30:00Something urgent?
00:30:02Yeah, I'll explain later.
00:30:10Maybe next time.
00:30:17I didn't see your reservation, Grandpa.
00:30:20I didn't know I needed permission to come to my old office.
00:30:25How's Florida?
00:30:27Not bad. Until I found out that you're married to somebody I don't even know...
00:30:33Yep.
00:30:35My ship has sailed.
00:30:37Nothing you can do about it.
00:30:39Is that so? I've already called Fiona back from Europe.
00:30:43Get 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. Damage wasn't too severe.
00:31:09How come we're meeting here and not at your house?
00:31:12Barrett's there.
00:31:14Wait, are you two living together?
00:31:16Not yet. I still haven't told him.
00:31:23Hello?
00:31:25Are you available tonight? I have something to tell you.
00:31:36What happened?
00:31:38Nothing. Just some family issues.
00:31:40Well, I'm an expert in that.
00:31:42If you are having family issues, you could always come stay at my place.
00:31:48Are you asking me to move in with you?
00:31:51Will you?
00:31:54Barry, I missed you so much.
00:31:58Fiona?
00:32:06It's been so long. You still like black coffee?
00:32:09No, thank you.
00:32:11I admire your devotion.
00:32:14And who is she?
00:32:16This is Renee. She's my...
00:32:18His blind date.
00:32:20Really?
00:32:22Yeah. But I have to think twice about whether to continue.
00:32:25Well, I guess I've been gone for too long.
00:32:28But I came back to marry Barrett. Isn't that right?
00:32:33Fiona, I'm already married and Renee...
00:32:35I know. But Benjamin told me that you're willing to divorce her anytime for me.
00:32:40Is that so? Good to know.
00:32:44Excuse me for a moment. You two can wrap it up.
00:32:50Renee, let me explain first.
00:32:52Explain what?
00:32:54You have a gravely ill grandfather, you have to marry a wealthy woman to pay for his treatment?
00:32:59That is such a cliche, even for a soap opera.
00:33:02Wait.
00:33:03It's not true.
00:33:11Oh, what's going on?
00:33:13You two had a fight?
00:33:15None of your business.
00:33:17Barry, I haven't had time to book a hotel yet.
00:33:20Why don't I stay at your place?
00:33:23Such a gentleman would never say no.
00:33:26Sweet dreams, both of you.
00:33:33Enough! I'm not going to divorce Renee and I'm certainly not going to get married to you.
00:33:37So she's your quickie wife? Now I know why Benjamin called me.
00:33:42She's not a quickie. She's the love of my life.
00:34:03You invited me. No taking backsies.
00:34:34I thought you were going to leave me.
00:34:37No chance.
00:34:44The thing I fear the most is deceit and betrayal.
00:34:49I know. And I won't do either of those things.
00:34:54Do you promise?
00:34:56I promise.
00:34:57I promise.
00:35:01No one kisses me right now.
00:35:16I don't recall ever seeing any jokes in there.
00:35:19No, man. I moved in with Renee.
00:35:22Oh, yeah. Totally normal thing to do. For a married couple.
00:35:25Okay, look. I'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. I hate rich people.
00:35:39Come on, man. I mean it.
00:35:41Look, it was founded by her mom, right?
00:35:44I know that we still don't know who the president is,
00:35:46but the company deserves to be back in the hands of its rightful owner.
00:35:49All right.
00:35:51Romeo.
00:35:53The front desk handed this to me.
00:35:56Said it was from someone anonymous.
00:36:00Wait a second.
00:36:03Isn't this the room that me and Renee first met?
00:36:06Don't tell me she's planning on proposing officially as well.
00:36:10We'll see.
00:36:23Renee?
00:36:26Oh, hi.
00:36:48I just keep loving you more.
00:36:53What the hell?
00:36:55I can take you there.
00:36:57Don't worry.
00:36:59What happens here stays here.
00:37:02No. You're psychotic.
00:37:04Does 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.
00:37:19I can pull all of your company's investments in a second.
00:37:46You have something for me?
00:37:47I'm sorry.
00:37:49But you deserve to know.
00:37:53I know you're married to him.
00:37:55And I said no at first.
00:37:57But 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.
00:38:28Better luck next time.
00:38:31No, stop.
00:38:33That won't work on me.
00:38:35You could make some real money on OnlyFans, though.
00:38:37Go back to Europe, Fiona.
00:38:39And don't ever come back.
00:38:42Renee.
00:38:44Do you really trust your husband?
00:38:45Tell him, Father.
00:38:47I know he has his secrets.
00:38:50And I've got mine.
00:38:52We've promised to give each other space.
00:38:55Enjoy your flight, Fiona.
00:39:16Finally.
00:39:21What's got you so happy?
00:39:25You don't have to wait for tonight.
00:39:27You can't tell me no.
00:39:29Gotta keep some level of surprise and suspense in our relationship.
00:39:32Okay, drama queen.
00:39:38Renee, Norman Group just became our largest fan.
00:39:41I'm so excited.
00:39:43Renee, 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.
00:40:12Okay.
00:40:16What's going on? How did Norman Group buy into our company?
00:40:19Mara and Chloe sold their shares to Norman Group to cash out.
00:40:22Plus the other shares that Norman bought at high prices.
00:40:26Norman Group now owns 50% of the company.
00:40:29Well, do we know who's behind this?
00:40:32The company is now expecting their president out there.
00:40:35Are you sure about this?
00:40:38What are you doing here?
00:40:43I've been meaning to introduce myself properly.
00:40:45I'm the president of Laura Group.
00:40:48Even if you are the president,
00:40:50I know that you don't have any power because of the Norman Group.
00:40:53What a shame.
00:40:55The Norman Group is well on its way to taking over this company.
00:40:58I wonder how long your struggle will be before your defeat.
00:41:01Security.
00:41:03Kick her out.
00:41:05I don't want her going anywhere near the office.
00:41:07I don't want her going anywhere near the office.
00:41:09I don't want her going anywhere near the office.
00:41:10I don't want her going anywhere near the office.
00:41:12Don't let her even take a picture.
00:41:14No, until Norman Group holds their shareholder meeting,
00:41:17I still have control of this company.
00:41:19Let me go.
00:41:21Are you really going to let them steal from my mom again?
00:41:23It still belongs to our family.
00:41:25Family.
00:41:27How can you use that word, you coward?
00:41:29Well, it looks like the wild child is lacking etiquette.
00:41:32I think you need a lesson.
00:41:36Don't you dare.
00:41:38What?
00:41:41This is my final warning.
00:41:43This is a Brown family matter.
00:41:45You need not get involved.
00:41:47Funny.
00:41:49I don't see myself standing in the Brown family household.
00:41:51Is the heir's assistant always so audacious?
00:41:53Actually, I'm here on behalf of Mr. Norman
00:41:55to appoint Renee as the new president of the Lori Group.
00:41:58I'm sorry.
00:42:00I'm sorry.
00:42:02I'm sorry.
00:42:04I'm sorry.
00:42:06I'm sorry.
00:42:08I'm sorry.
00:42:10Are you serious?
00:42:12You heard me right.
00:42:14Now I assume you would like to clear out these three?
00:42:16I am so sorry,
00:42:18but since you've traded away all of your shares,
00:42:20you no longer have any stake in the Lori Group.
00:42:23Please leave.
00:42:25Let's go.
00:42:27Ladies, let's go.
00:42:33Let me get this straight.
00:42:35Norman Group, as the largest shareholder of Lori Group,
00:42:38wants me to be president?
00:42:40Indeed.
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.
00:42:57Except...
00:43:00Well, I was going to tell you tonight.
00:43:02Actually, I...
00:43:04Are you really just Mr. Norman's assistant?
00:43:06Huh?
00:43:08My relationship to him is through you.
00:43:10Do you know I've been opposing him the whole time?
00:43:12Opposing him? What do you mean?
00:43:14I should have told you sooner.
00:43:19I've been president of Lori Group all along.
00:43:21Wait.
00:43:23So you're the reason for the stock drop?
00:43:26Well, let's take it as a happy coincidence.
00:43:34It must have taken you a lot to make this happen.
00:43:36You have to let me meet Mr. Norman.
00:43:38Sure.
00:43:40Sure.
00:43:42What are you waiting for?
00:43:56Dude.
00:43:58Why didn't you come clean back there?
00:44:00It's too much for her to process today.
00:44:02I'll take it to her another day.
00:44:04What are you hesitating for, man?
00:44:05Isn't it a good thing for
00:44:07the husband to be loaded eye candy?
00:44:09Renee isn't shallow like that.
00:44:11If she finds out that she lost to me
00:44:13in this business arrangement,
00:44:15she's not going to be happy.
00:44:17Well, you played the game and you won.
00:44:19She needs to accept that.
00:44:21She can lose, okay?
00:44:23But not to me in disguise.
00:44:25It's different.
00:44:27I guess marriage is hard.
00:44:29Can't wait to see your wedding day.
00:44:35The thing I fear most is
00:44:37deceit and betrayal.
00:44:47Congrats, Renee.
00:44:49I always knew you were something special.
00:44:51Really? Then who was it that mistook
00:44:53Mara for the president?
00:44:55Well, everyone makes mistakes.
00:44:57But that won't happen again
00:44:59now that you're in charge.
00:45:01Whoa, that necklace is gorgeous.
00:45:03Only someone like you could pull it off.
00:45:05What, this?
00:45:07No, this is a knockoff.
00:45:09Barrett gave it to me at a party
00:45:11to show off and I wear it for fun.
00:45:13No way.
00:45:15I've never made mistakes in luxury.
00:45:17There's no chance that's a knockoff.
00:45:19All right, I'm not going to hold you
00:45:21accountable for the past.
00:45:23You can stop with the flattery.
00:45:25For short, stop sucking up.
00:45:27Don't you have work to be doing?
00:45:29Yeah, yeah, I'm on it.
00:45:31But seriously, that necklace is real.
00:45:33No flattery, just facts.
00:45:36What if Carl's right?
00:45:38How much would that cost?
00:45:40No.
00:45:42Even though he works for Norman Group,
00:45:44something like this would still be a stretch.
00:45:46Unless...
00:45:48Because I'm the real heir.
00:45:50This is my sister.
00:45:52I came back to marry Barrett.
00:45:54I was going to tell you tonight.
00:45:56Actually, um...
00:45:58I'm sorry.
00:46:00I'm sorry.
00:46:02I'm sorry.
00:46:04No.
00:46:06Barrett is nothing like those trust fund kids.
00:46:10Hold on.
00:46:13The necklace is real.
00:46:15Look.
00:46:17Your Barrett is Barrett Norman,
00:46:19the heir to the Norman Group.
00:46:24Dude, don't bother confessing.
00:46:26Looks like someone already did it for you.
00:46:28What?
00:46:30Who did this?
00:46:31Who did this?
00:46:38Get the PR team in here.
00:46:40I want this article redacted
00:46:42and any rumors squashed immediately.
00:46:45Uh, you have a visitor.
00:46:48Not now!
00:46:53So the article was true.
00:46:56Let me explain.
00:46:58I was going to tell you earlier,
00:46:59but then I found out that you were the...
00:47:01Well, I found out that I was the president
00:47:03of the company you acquired.
00:47:05Your defeated opponent, right?
00:47:07Not true.
00:47:09Then what is the truth?
00:47:11And were you afraid to hurt my pride?
00:47:13Or was it just fun for you to watch me be fooled?
00:47:15You don't get it, Renee.
00:47:17I acquired the lower group for you as a gift.
00:47:19I know how important it is to you and your mom.
00:47:21Hey, don't talk about my mother!
00:47:23I don't get it.
00:47:25You were so excited about this before you knew who I was,
00:47:27so why not now?
00:47:29I did it myself!
00:47:31I was your husband.
00:47:33I wanted to help you to carry the burden.
00:47:35Is that so wrong?
00:47:37No.
00:47:39Not anymore.
00:47:41What's that supposed to mean?
00:47:47Have your lawyer contact mine.
00:47:49We're getting a divorce.
00:47:51Renee.
00:47:53Did you really mean it about the divorce?
00:47:55Shouldn't you two talk things over?
00:47:57What is there to talk about?
00:47:59We're just different kinds of people.
00:48:01Pretty much the same to me.
00:48:03Both executives.
00:48:05Both enjoy identity games.
00:48:07I thought that you were supposed to be on my side.
00:48:09I am.
00:48:12I feel like you're being a little too impulsive.
00:48:14If Barrett had known you as the president,
00:48:16maybe he wouldn't have acted like this.
00:48:18Maybe he would have assisted you
00:48:19in a different way.
00:48:21Maybe that's my issue.
00:48:24The Browns think money can solve anything,
00:48:26including love and dignity.
00:48:30I don't know if Barrett's like that too.
00:48:33You do.
00:48:35You know deep down Barrett isn't like that.
00:48:45Should I trust you?
00:48:47Should I trust you, Barrett?
00:48:59Renee, what do I have to do to get you back?
00:49:17Hey.
00:49:19Renee.
00:49:21You're back.
00:49:23I'm sorry.
00:49:25I did it out of love for you.
00:49:27Please forgive me.
00:49:29It'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?
00:49:42No.
00:49:44This is real.
00:49:47Okay.
00:49:49Let's get you to bed.
00:49:58Relax.
00:50:00Come here, Renee.
00:50:17I'm sorry.
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?
00:50:46No way. Last night it was...
00:50:48It was Renee.
00:50:50It was you.
00:50:52Don't get close to me.
00:50:56And keep your mouth shut.
00:50:58If you don't, I won't let you live it down.
00:51:15Where are the photos?
00:51:20You seem not mad.
00:51:22He made his decision.
00:51:24Aren't you guys getting a divorce?
00:51:26You seem well-informed.
00:51:28Regardless, Barrett is still a shareholder in my company,
00:51:31and it's my job to protect our reputation from people like you.
00:51:36Well...
00:51:38I guess we'll have to see about that.
00:51:41Well...
00:51:44I admire your sanity.
00:51:47Have a drink with me, and I'll give you all the photos.
00:51:51And I'll leave Barrett alone.
00:52:06Did you drug me?
00:52:07Did you drug me?
00:52:09Yes.
00:52:11I did.
00:52:13And by the way,
00:52:15I was the one who wrote the article revealing Barrett's identity.
00:52:31Renee?
00:52:38Remember to sign these papers.
00:52:41The company rightfully belongs to you.
00:52:44That was my promise.
00:52:47Maybe my last one.
00:53:02I love you.
00:53:08Mr. Norman?
00:53:10What are you doing here? Where's Renee?
00:53:12I need your help. Renee's missing.
00:53:14Missing?
00:53:30Do we really have to?
00:53:32She's still my daughter.
00:53:34Zip it.
00:53:35You want the money or not?
00:53:37Dad, as long as he'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.
00:54:02Just sign the documents.
00:54:03Sign your shares over to Chloe and I guarantee she'll let you go.
00:54:08Let me go?
00:54:10Did you give my mom that choice?
00:54:12Just kill me.
00:54:14If you dare.
00:54:25My detectives are still searching.
00:54:27But her last location update was 12 hours ago.
00:54:30Alright.
00:54:31Keep me in the loop.
00:54:39What are you doing here?
00:54:41Barry.
00:54:43Why do you look so stressed?
00:54:45How did you get in?
00:54:47I just walked in. As your fiancé.
00:54:49Get out.
00:54:51You're the last person I want to see right now.
00:54:56Kick me out and you'll never see her again.
00:55:02Where is she?
00:55:04She's alive.
00:55:06For now.
00:55:08But only if you agree to one condition.
00:55:11What do you want?
00:55:14Marry me.
00:55:22What do you want?
00:55:25Marry me.
00:55:28You're sick.
00:55:29You kidnapped Renee just so that you could marry me?
00:55:33Don't flatter yourself.
00:55:35It was never you that I wanted.
00:55:37What do you mean?
00:55:39Well, ever since I was born, everyone swore to me that I was going to be the future Mrs. Norman.
00:55:45So this is all just about power.
00:55:47Exactly.
00:55:49Blame it on being the head of the Norman Company.
00:55:51You were always destined to be my husband.
00:55:59Take your time to think about it.
00:56:02But not too long.
00:56:04She's got a lot of enemies.
00:56:11Enemies?
00:56:15Paul, find Damon for me. Right now.
00:56:25Go after him!
00:56:30Just give me three days and I'll get your money back, I promise.
00:56:35Where is Mara Brown?
00:56:37I wouldn't know. She broke up with me a long time ago.
00:56:42Do you want me to call your creditors over here?
00:56:45Okay, okay. But I swear I had nothing to do with the kidnapping.
00:56:49How much do you know?
00:56:51Mara asked me to help her. I didn't. I didn't.
00:56:54Wait. Then how could you know where she is?
00:56:55I have Mara's GPS. This 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.
00:57:25Paul, we need a new suit.
00:57:48Didn't Miss Norman just get married? Why is she getting engaged again?
00:57:52It's a business marriage. It's pretty common.
00:57:57If you're going to act, do it right.
00:58:01I'm not as fake as you. I can't pull it off.
00:58:05Make me happy and that woman might stay alive.
00:58:15Excuse me, Your Majesty. I have a very important phone call to make. I'll be back.
00:58:22What?
00:58:32I need her dead. Now.
00:58:41I have a very important phone call to make. I'll be back.
00:58:44Here's the keys to her rental. It'll keep them from spotting you.
00:58:47Thanks, man.
00:58:48Yeah.
00:58:49I really appreciate you coming through for this.
00:58:51You gotta hurry. Okay? I don't want to be here for too long.
00:58:55Go.
00:58:56Thanks, buddy.
00:58:57Okay. Go. Hurry.
00:59:05Go kill her. The owner will hand the company over to us.
00:59:09Go kill her. The owner will hand the company over to us.
00:59:13Do it fast, Dad. I'll wait for you outside.
00:59:20I'm so sorry, Renee.
00:59:32I'm so sorry, Renee.
00:59:33Sorry?
00:59:36Sorry? Did you ever feel sorry for my mother?
00:59:39It wasn't my fault. I had no choice.
00:59:41But you did. And you chose to sacrifice her.
00:59:46Just do it. I'm ready.
01:00:03Renee. Oh, my God. Are you all right?
01:00:08Let's get you out of here.
01:00:09Not so fast.
01:00:12Toodle-oo, lovebirds.
01:00:23What took you so long?
01:00:33Where's Barrett?
01:00:37I'm here.
01:00:48Not so fast.
01:00:51Toodle-oo, lovebirds.
01:01:00Game over.
01:01:03Game 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.
01:01:30Uncle Ben. Help me.
01:01:32Weren'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.
01:02:00Till death do us part.
01:02:02Till death do us part.
01:02:18Look.
01:02:19Our stock just hit an all-time high.
01:02:21Nice. Double that and it might be worth half our price.
01:02:25Well, give me a year and I'll definitely surpass you.
01:02:30Sure thing.
01:02:33Miss Brown.
01:02:34About the divorce application you submitted a few months ago.
01:02:37We won't need it.
01:02:41What did you say, Miss Brown?
01:02:43Shall we do this thing?
