00:00:00Fake boyfriends?
00:00:02Interesting.
00:00:09I just can't believe we did that.
00:00:13Mia, will you marry me?
00:00:15Yes!
00:00:17Oh my god!
00:00:20I can seem to.
00:00:23Perhaps this will help return in the room?
00:00:30I thought as much.
00:00:32It's me.
00:00:34You're bluffing about?
00:00:36She would never find out.
00:00:40Now this is what we're talking about, James.
00:00:44She would be wrong.
00:00:46Open denial, Michelle.
00:00:56Anyone here?
00:01:03What do you want from me?
00:01:06It's time to tell the truth, Richard, don't you think?
00:01:20Please, put the gun down.
00:01:28You don't want to end up like this.
00:01:30Mia is the only one I love.
00:01:36I'm not sure what it is.
00:01:43I'm not sure what it is.
00:01:49I'm not sure what it is.
00:01:56I'm not sure what it is.
00:01:59MacAllen, neat.
00:02:03Marriage suffocating.
00:02:08Tell me about it.
00:02:12Sounds like you've got something you want to say.
00:02:16Family pressures, right?
00:02:19Want to talk?
00:02:22My family have been on my case for years.
00:02:29It's like they have already chosen my future spouse.
00:02:35My family wants to plan my entire life.
00:02:41MacAllen, neat.
00:02:43I'm James.
00:02:45James Turner, by the way.
00:02:48I'm Mia.
00:02:50Pleasure to meet you.
00:02:54It's our endless battle.
00:02:59To my new comrade.
00:03:13James, right?
00:03:16Fancy seeing you here again.
00:03:18Mia.
00:03:19Must be fake.
00:03:20That or you just come here a little too often.
00:03:24Scotch.
00:03:25Neat.
00:03:26Got it.
00:03:28How are things going, Andre?
00:03:33My mom calls me every single day to see if I'm bringing someone home for Thanksgiving dinner.
00:03:41And what was your response?
00:03:43I said yes just to stop her calls, but I don't think there's anyone.
00:03:50You?
00:03:51My parents are obsessed with my kids, even though I'm still single.
00:03:57Slash please.
00:04:07Here, to our endless battle.
00:04:17Mia, I've been thinking, why don't we help each other out here?
00:04:27What do you mean?
00:04:37Maybe we can be the plus one for each other, so our families will stop pushing us.
00:04:42Fake boyfriend?
00:04:44Interesting?
00:04:45Only once.
00:04:46And we can be free for a long time.
00:04:50It's not what I usually do, but maybe it's exactly what I need right now.
00:04:57This night is just getting more interesting.
00:05:01Sounds like the craziest night I've ever had.
00:05:04Not yet.
00:05:05Wait till Thanksgiving.
00:05:07Okay, boyfriend.
00:05:10Why don't you introduce yourself more to me?
00:05:13Well, I own a real estate company.
00:05:16We work with many partners on their projects.
00:05:19You sure look like a boss.
00:05:21The scotch gives it away.
00:05:23Alright, enough about it.
00:05:25Tell me something about yourself.
00:05:27Well, I'm an artist and a gallery owner.
00:05:31Not to show off, but you've probably seen a lot of my work around Manhattan already.
00:05:37Wait, are you Mia Davis?
00:05:40That Mia Davis?
00:05:42In the flesh, darling.
00:05:50I understand the emergence, but this is not how negotiation works.
00:05:54I need this to be done in three days.
00:05:56Our investors are not gonna wait for us.
00:05:59Anderson, I assure you, we are doing everything we can.
00:06:04I trust you because you are the best I've got.
00:06:06We won't let you down.
00:06:12Hey there.
00:06:38Mia, what a pleasant surprise.
00:06:41How did you have time to call me today?
00:06:43Is this a bad time?
00:06:45You sound like you've had a rough day.
00:06:47It was one of those days.
00:06:49Well, sounds like you could use a break.
00:06:53How about a drink to unwind later?
00:06:56Let me check.
00:07:00Yeah, I can really use that.
00:07:01I'll meet you at the same bar.
00:07:11Knowing my mom, she'll definitely want you to stay over.
00:07:15So we'll probably spend three days in one bedroom.
00:07:19After that, we'll be free to go back to our regular lives.
00:07:23Sounds like a plan.
00:07:25Here we go, James.
00:07:35Remember, we're a couple deeply in love.
00:07:39Got it.
00:07:41Mom, I'm home.
00:07:47Come here.
00:07:49It's been so long.
00:07:53Mom, this is James, my boyfriend.
00:07:56Pleasure to meeting Mrs. Davis.
00:07:57Mia's told me so much about.
00:07:59Please, call me Maria.
00:08:01Common name.
00:08:03Help yourself with some cookies.
00:08:05Before I finish dressing the turkey.
00:08:10So far, so good.
00:08:12Let's keep it up.
00:08:19You know, I'm actually enjoying this date.
00:08:22Me too.
00:08:24I feel like we're a real couple.
00:08:28So, you two.
00:08:31Tell me how you met.
00:08:33Of course.
00:08:35It was a charming little cafe on the 3rd Avenue.
00:08:39Neil was sitting alone reading a chat for Eugenides.
00:08:43And I couldn't resist striking out the conversation.
00:08:46Oh, how I met you.
00:08:49I'm so happy you guys met each other.
00:08:53It's been so long for me.
00:08:56I've never thought of so much.
00:08:57So, thank you.
00:08:58I'm so happy.
00:09:21Mia, your mom's here.
00:09:22What do we do?
00:09:24Uh, quick, come in here.
00:09:28Okay.
00:09:29Come in.
00:09:30Good morning, lovebirds.
00:09:31I can see you had a lovely night.
00:09:32Stop it, mom.
00:09:33You're making it awkward.
00:09:34Look at you.
00:09:35All glowing.
00:09:36I'll do everything for my princess.
00:09:37Okay.
00:09:38Um, I think the couple needs their alone time now.
00:09:39I'll do everything for my princess.
00:09:40Okay.
00:09:41Um, I think the couple needs their alone time now.
00:09:44Okay.
00:09:45Okay, okay.
00:09:46Just don't take too long.
00:09:47And shouldn't you get back to the city today?
00:09:51I have to say it was quite a play in your house.
00:09:52It was perfect.
00:09:53They all bought it.
00:09:54Remember how your mom almost got us in the bedroom.
00:09:55Remember how your mom almost got us in the bedroom.
00:09:56My heart was about to jump out when I heard that knock.
00:09:59But we made it.
00:10:01Okay.
00:10:02Okay.
00:10:03Okay.
00:10:04Okay.
00:10:05Just don't take too long.
00:10:06And shouldn't you get back to the city today?
00:10:11I have to say it was quite a play in your house.
00:10:15It was perfect.
00:10:16They all bought it.
00:10:18Remember how your mom almost got us in the bedroom.
00:10:22My heart was about to jump out when I heard that knock.
00:10:26But we made it.
00:10:29So, has it been easier for you with your parents since our last visit?
00:10:34They just won't let the topic off you.
00:10:37Same here.
00:10:38But now, my mom won't stop asking me about the wedding.
00:10:41I'm gonna lose my mind.
00:10:43Let's just share the night we have right now.
00:10:49Well, we still can.
00:10:51You know, James, it's nights like these that really make me appreciate the simple things in life.
00:11:08I feel the same.
00:11:10I know there's beauty in commitment, but shouldn't it be our own life trips to make?
00:11:16Exactly.
00:11:17I'd rather cherish these moments with you and my friends.
00:11:23Telling me to rush into a life?
00:11:26Raising kids in a house and giving up all of my freedoms?
00:11:31No thank you.
00:11:32Wait.
00:11:33I have an idea.
00:11:34Might help both of us.
00:11:35I'm all ears.
00:11:36Thinking.
00:11:37What if we turn the tables on our families?
00:11:39Thinking.
00:11:40What if we turn the tables on our families?
00:11:41Thinking.
00:11:42What if we turn the tables on our families?
00:11:45Please elaborate.
00:11:46What if we consider a contract marriage?
00:11:48A contract marriage?
00:11:50Yeah.
00:11:51Our families will be satisfied while we actually live a free life.
00:12:06We'll make a legal contract with maybe separate bedrooms, financial terms and so on.
00:12:13Oh.
00:12:14No feelings should be included.
00:12:15This is huge.
00:12:16I need to think about it.
00:12:17I know.
00:12:18It's not something to deal with the person whom you just met.
00:12:21But think about this.
00:12:22The contract will satisfy our parents' expectations.
00:12:23So we can take control of our parents' family.
00:12:24What if we want to do?
00:12:25We'll actually live a free life.
00:12:26We'll make a legal contract with maybe separate bedrooms, financial terms and so on.
00:12:27Oh.
00:12:28No feelings should be included.
00:12:29This is huge.
00:12:30I need to think about it.
00:12:31I know.
00:12:32It's not something to deal with the person whom you just met.
00:12:36But think about this.
00:12:38The contract will satisfy our parents' expectations.
00:12:41So we can take control of our own lives without their interference.
00:12:46It's the perfect solution to our current dilemma.
00:12:49It's just, like I said, love and marriage are not supposed to be contractual.
00:12:57They should be based on emotions and connection that grows naturally.
00:13:04Get it, Mia.
00:13:05I do.
00:13:06But sometimes life doesn't follow our script.
00:13:09And we need to adapt to that.
00:13:11Our life won't change the bit.
00:13:13Just more freedom with this contract.
00:13:15But what about the no emotions term?
00:13:19Should we really cut off our feelings like that?
00:13:22It's necessary.
00:13:24We need to avoid the situation of falling in love with each other.
00:13:27It will make things difficult.
00:13:29Well, you do make a good point.
00:13:34I do want to take control over my own destiny again.
00:13:39But we need to set boundaries.
00:13:44Conditions.
00:13:45We'll stick with friendship.
00:13:47Contractual partners.
00:13:49Agreed, Mia.
00:13:51I'll write a legal contract.
00:13:54And we should both be clear about all the terms.
00:13:57Oh, and one more thing, James.
00:13:59We need to keep our personal lives separate from all of this.
00:14:03We both continue to pursue our goals, passions, and relationships.
00:14:08Absolutely.
00:14:10Our contract won't affect any of our lives.
00:14:13We can make it done tomorrow.
00:14:15While our squad will take care of everything.
00:14:18Deal.
00:14:20I can't believe we're actually doing this.
00:14:35Yeah.
00:14:36We've got that far, Mia.
00:14:37Let's go through this contract together.
00:14:41Okay.
00:14:42Separate bedrooms.
00:14:43No feelings clause.
00:14:44And clear financial terms.
00:14:46Yep.
00:14:47We'll be commuted to each other from now on.
00:14:48We'll be commuted to each other from now on.
00:14:53Um…
00:14:54Oh.
00:14:55I just…
00:14:56Um…
00:14:57Um…
00:14:58It's…
00:14:59clear financial terms.
00:15:00Yep.
00:15:03We'll be commuted to each other from now on.
00:15:11You know…
00:15:23I can't believe we did that.
00:15:33So what's next?
00:15:35We'll tell our parents and make it official.
00:15:39I'll propose to you in your apartment and send pictures to our families.
00:15:43Well, it's a lot to get done just to prove we're getting married.
00:15:48Yeah, Stan will plan a wedding so everyone will buy it.
00:15:52It's all part of the plan.
00:15:54I really want to get this out of my head.
00:15:57Can we just get it over with so we can move on with our lives?
00:16:09Did you turn the camera on?
00:16:12Yeah, it's working.
00:16:18Mia, there is something I'm wanting to ask you tonight.
00:16:22Yes?
00:16:26Mia, will you marry me?
00:16:29Oh my god, James, yes!
00:16:36Oh my god!
00:16:48I can't believe we just did that.
00:17:02It's all part of the plan.
00:17:06This is our first big show on the stage.
00:17:18We have to make sure that we look like a happy couple in front of everyone.
00:17:27Of course.
00:17:28Not mistake is allowed tonight.
00:17:36It's getting harder for me to tell between all this and the truth.
00:17:46I know, but we have to stay firm.
00:17:50Focus on the bigger picture.
00:17:51Neither of us wants a real marriage right now.
00:17:52And we still have our wedding in two days.
00:17:56Let's get some rest.
00:17:57Goodnight.
00:17:58Goodnight.
00:17:59Goodnight.
00:18:00Goodnight.
00:18:01Goodnight.
00:18:02Goodnight.
00:18:34Mia, are you okay?
00:18:38Please, open up.
00:18:43Talk to me.
00:18:44I can't do this, James.
00:18:49At the wedding, I saw everyone's faces.
00:18:53They were so happy and blessed us with their whole hearts.
00:18:58I feel like I betrayed every one of them.
00:19:03But we are already here.
00:19:07There is no way of going back.
00:19:09I saw their faces.
00:19:12They believed in us.
00:19:14It was all a huge lie.
00:19:17I can't imagine what would happen if they found out the truth.
00:19:21It's not easy for me either.
00:19:24But we have to hang in there.
00:19:27We can't let them down right now.
00:19:47I just wish it didn't have to be like this.
00:19:50I wish that to Mia, but I promise, we can get through it.
00:19:55I promise.
00:19:56James, I have something that I want to say.
00:20:21If I had any questions, I don't know.
00:20:23I bet that I'm glad we have to go and do this.
00:20:24Yeah.
00:20:25We agreed.
00:20:27No feelings.
00:20:30I know.
00:20:33But.
00:20:36Sorry.
00:20:42Compliments of my friend.
00:20:46Please, enjoy your evening.
00:20:49Please, enjoy your evening.
00:21:00James, what's this?
00:21:49James?
00:21:54Where are you?
00:21:58Right here, Mia.
00:22:00Is there any candle?
00:22:03James.
00:22:10So, any clue on that note?
00:22:17I hope you enjoyed the champagne I sent you, a gift to celebrate your fake wedding.
00:22:38Someone knows our secret.
00:22:51What should we do?
00:22:54You know, I've been thinking about the day we met.
00:23:07It feels like a lifetime ago.
00:23:22I know, and I'm glad that I met you.
00:23:24You're such a special woman, and I've never met anyone like you before.
00:23:37You too.
00:23:39I'm glad I met a real gentleman.
00:23:42Even though it's a dramatic fake wedding, I'm happy to have you here with me.
00:23:54I'm happy to have you here with me.
00:24:03It's not a fairy tale.
00:24:06It's a bloody reality.
00:24:09But I still like it.
00:24:12It's our story.
00:24:14It's not a fairy tale.
00:24:16It's a big storm.
00:24:17It's a little too bad to my face.
00:24:19It's a great day.
00:24:21It's not a fairy tale.
00:24:22It's a big sea.
00:24:23It's a giant fairy tale.
00:24:24It's a fairy tale.
00:24:25It's a big sea.
00:24:26It's a and a fairy tale.
00:24:27What's happening?
00:24:40We're stuck.
00:24:42What do we do?
00:24:44I need to be there on time.
00:24:47Let's call the building.
00:24:49They should come and fix this.
00:24:57Oh, there's no signal.
00:25:01We could be trapped in here for hours.
00:25:04We won't.
00:25:06Someone will notice the elevator went wrong and come to fix this.
00:25:10We just need to be patient.
00:25:17What's that for?
00:25:19Just to give us our strength.
00:25:21Friends can hurt too.
00:25:23Okay.
00:25:27I can't believe this is happening.
00:25:38Well, at least it's a short break from our complex life.
00:25:43You always find a way to be positive, don't you?
00:25:51James, what if people find out about our contract marriage?
00:25:55They'd be so disappointed.
00:25:59We are doing everything we can.
00:26:01And so far, we did good.
00:26:03Everyone is happy.
00:26:06I just think about how far we've come.
00:26:10Since the day we met, there was the gala, the proposal, the wedding, and now blackmail?
00:26:19It's like an endless spy game.
00:26:21I know.
00:26:24But we're in this together.
00:26:27We chose this to take control of our life.
00:26:30And now we are tied together by fate.
00:26:33We are one.
00:26:37I suddenly feel so relieved.
00:26:42Maybe it's because I'm not alone anymore.
00:26:45I know.
00:26:47I always rush to my friends after a bad day.
00:26:50And here I am with a dearest friend.
00:26:54And now maybe I can finally get some space from my mom, now that I'm busy with my new husband.
00:27:01Mine too.
00:27:02My mom called the other day.
00:27:04But when she saw you walk out from the bath, she hung up as soon as she could.
00:27:08But of course, she made fun of us.
00:27:10Or maybe next time I can show up even sexier, and then she can make fun of you some more.
00:27:18I'm sexy now.
00:27:19Maybe we should talk about what just happened.
00:27:35The moment was...
00:27:37I enjoyed it.
00:27:38There is something I never thought I would say.
00:27:41But it's not what we expected.
00:27:44I thought we got into this to avoid marriage.
00:27:47Mia, I have to tell you.
00:27:50I don't want to lie to myself or to you anymore.
00:27:54I care about you more than I should.
00:27:57I don't want to hide my feelings and pretend nothing is there.
00:28:02I'm in love with you.
00:28:03I actually feel the exact same way.
00:28:16I can't stop thinking about you all the time.
00:28:19Although we got into this relationship to avoid affection,
00:28:24I'm glad that fate brought us together.
00:28:26Let's tell everyone the truth.
00:28:30I'm sure they will understand.
00:28:32They may be mad at first, but they will be happy for us in the end.
00:28:36Our families will be shocked when they find out.
00:28:39I know, Mia, but it's time to set things right.
00:28:42It should be our priority right now.
00:28:43James, our parents aside,
00:29:00I'm really worried about that blackmail that we received at the bar.
00:29:04Who would be so interested in our personal matters?
00:29:07Mia, I have no idea.
00:29:10But I hired an investigator.
00:29:12Hope she can bring me some valuable information.
00:29:15I have a feeling someone is watching us from the dark.
00:29:24We should have never gotten ourselves into this mess.
00:29:28This contract marriage was a stupid idea in hindsight,
00:29:32bringing us all of these unexpected problems.
00:29:34We chose this to live a better life, Mia.
00:29:45And yet, I feel that life is worse under the pretense.
00:29:49We will get ourselves out of this situation.
00:29:52We'll find the right time to tell everyone the truth to our marriage,
00:29:56and we'll for sure catch the person hunting us.
00:29:59We'll find the right time to tell everyone the truth to our marriage.
00:30:29We'll find the right time to tell everyone the truth to our marriage.
00:30:59I assure you, there's a misunderstanding.
00:31:03Please, just tell me what you want from me.
00:31:07I just need you to be here, my friend.
00:31:11We can talk things out.
00:31:14You don't need to tie me to a chair.
00:31:16I will cooperate.
00:31:18If it is money, I can give it to you.
00:31:21Just let me go.
00:31:24Just let me go.
00:31:27Hello?
00:31:27Mr. Turner, it's time for you to decide.
00:31:51Maya's life depends on you.
00:31:53Don't bother.
00:31:54You won't recognize who I am.
00:31:57What matters is, Maya.
00:31:58You have 24 hours to prepare $5 million if you want to see her alive.
00:32:04Who are you, and what do you want?
00:32:06That is not a question for me to answer.
00:32:08Just do as I said.
00:32:10I can't arrange that much money in such a short time.
00:32:14That's not my concern.
00:32:16Mr. Turner, you can't put a price on love, can you?
00:32:20I need to be sure she's okay.
00:32:21Let me talk to her.
00:32:23That won't be happening.
00:32:24I swear, if you dare to touch her, I will hunt you down and pull out your eyes myself.
00:32:39I don't know what to do, Scott.
00:32:40They're asking for $5 million in 24 hours.
00:32:43I can't lose her.
00:32:45Well, figure it out, James.
00:32:47I'll do everything I can.
00:32:49I can't lose Maya.
00:32:53I thought the relationship between you two was strictly based on the contract.
00:32:58We found each other the one we have been looking for our whole life.
00:33:02Oh, no.
00:33:03This was not meant to happen.
00:33:06I have to find her.
00:33:07I can't stand to see her in danger.
00:33:10We will.
00:33:11But who will commit such a horrible crime?
00:33:14Anyone ring the bell?
00:33:17Maya wouldn't hurt anyone.
00:33:19I can assure you.
00:33:20This has something to do with that blackmail we received.
00:33:25Blackmail?
00:33:27Someone has been stalking us.
00:33:29They know about the contract marriage and threaten to expose us.
00:33:32Whatever it takes, I will hunt this person down.
00:33:39Mark, please, I need your help.
00:33:42Maya's life is in danger.
00:33:43I wish I could, James.
00:33:46Five million is a lot.
00:33:49I can't pull those resources in such a short time.
00:33:53Say good, Mark.
00:33:54When it comes to your turn, I dropped a lot of things to help you.
00:33:57You're a fucking nuisance.
00:33:59I guess our business partnership has also come to an end.
00:34:13I might be able to cash this out.
00:34:26Thank you for calling CPM Bank.
00:34:28Mr. Turner, how can we help you today?
00:34:32I have a certificate of deposit with your bank.
00:34:34I want to cash it out immediately.
00:34:36I understand the urgency.
00:34:39Please give us a moment.
00:34:40Can you get money from me in an hour?
00:34:51It's for an urgent matter.
00:34:53Sure.
00:34:53Since this is a huge sum of money, I will be needing you to come over.
00:34:58I will be there in 20 minutes.
00:34:59Please get the cash ready by then.
00:35:02Yes, sir.
00:35:02All noted.
00:35:03Great.
00:35:10Is it ready?
00:35:21Yes.
00:35:22Give me the location.
00:35:23I can't thank you enough for saving my life, James.
00:35:42Do anything to keep you safe.
00:35:44We're in this together.
00:35:45I want to give you both an update.
00:36:10We are investigating the lead we got from the drop-off point.
00:36:15Our main focus is on tracking down the kidnappers and bringing them to justice.
00:36:23Thank you, detective.
00:36:24We appreciate your efforts.
00:36:26I'm so, so sorry about all of this, James.
00:36:37It's not your fault.
00:36:40We'll get through this.
00:36:42Here we go.
00:36:43Here we go.
00:36:56It's been a while since we had a pissing room like this.
00:37:10Yeah.
00:37:11It's nice to get a break from all the chaos.
00:37:13Mia, you won't believe this.
00:37:30What is it?
00:37:32The company chose us to partner in a luxury project.
00:37:36They love my pitch.
00:37:37Oh my god, James, that's amazing.
00:37:39I'm going to call my employees to announce this news.
00:37:46And an after party later?
00:37:49You know me too well.
00:37:53Will you pick me up later for our little celebration?
00:37:57Absolutely.
00:37:58I'll meet you at home after work.
00:38:00Yeah, yeah.
00:38:00Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:38:09Yes, I need you to gather the people online for a meeting.
00:38:25We got that project and we need to present it to the client this afternoon.
00:38:29Wow, that's fantastic.
00:38:31I will gather down.
00:38:39Thank you all for your time.
00:38:49I'm eager to bring my team on board to execute this project.
00:38:54Before I finish, I'm just curious.
00:38:57Why you guys chose us out of all the companies in the world?
00:39:00Our president insisted you were the perfect fit.
00:39:04She said you're an old friend.
00:39:07An old friend?
00:39:10I'm not sure I know who it could be.
00:39:14You'll find out soon enough, James.
00:39:17For now, focus on getting the job done.
00:39:30What's wrong, James?
00:39:54What's wrong, James?
00:40:00What could that be?
00:40:03I don't know.
00:40:06But we are going to find out soon.
00:40:17Samantha, have you found anything?
00:40:20I have been waiting ages to hear from you.
00:40:22Hope you have news that I want to hear.
00:40:25James, we've made some significant progress.
00:40:28I think we are closed on covering who has been trying to blackmail you and Mia.
00:40:34I'm over yours.
00:40:35Details, please.
00:40:37We managed to trace the source of the blackmail attempts.
00:40:40We found a connection to an individual named Richard Kingsley.
00:40:44Richard Kingsley?
00:40:46Never heard that name.
00:40:47And why would he do this?
00:40:49We are still walking on that part.
00:40:52We'll gather more evidence and get to the bottom of this.
00:40:55Thank you, Samantha.
00:40:56Keep me posted on any updates.
00:40:58I want to know everything about Richard Kingsley and his motives.
00:41:02Of course.
00:41:02We are so close to unraveling this mystery.
00:41:05I received these pictures of you in the apartment.
00:41:23I tried to call you many times and you didn't answer.
00:41:26I thought something happened to you.
00:41:28I'm so sorry.
00:41:30I've been so engrossed in my painting.
00:41:33Everything's okay.
00:41:35I'm just glad you're okay.
00:41:37I'm safe and sound.
00:41:39Thank you for worrying about me so much.
00:41:44Samantha, the private detective I heard, is close to finding the person behind all this.
00:41:49I won't let him walk in one piece after what he has done.
00:41:52You know, it's moments like these that really make me appreciate having you in my life, James.
00:42:05Contract or not.
00:42:07I feel the same way, Mia.
00:42:09I won't ever want to lose you.
00:42:13I've been working on this for a few weeks.
00:42:16It may not be to everyone's taste, but it means a lot to me.
00:42:20It's wonderful.
00:42:25You're really talented.
00:42:28Thank you so much for your support.
00:42:30It means the world to me.
00:42:46Hello?
00:42:46James, I trust you are well.
00:42:51I wanted to inform you that there is an urgent meeting scheduled regarding the latest project we are partnering up on.
00:42:58Sure.
00:42:59Where should we meet?
00:43:00I can rearrange some work to make it.
00:43:05That's great.
00:43:07Your expertise and insights have been invaluable to us.
00:43:12I'll be at your office at 3 p.m. and we can go over all the details.
00:43:16Thank you for your recognition.
00:43:18I'm more than happy to lead this project to our huge success.
00:43:23Thanks for having me.
00:43:40Hi. I'm just calling to check if we should reschedule today's meeting.
00:43:46My apologies, James. I wouldn't be able to make the meeting myself due to some unexpected events.
00:43:54But our president is on her way to meet with you herself.
00:43:58Wow. I was not aware of that.
00:44:01Maybe you can catch up with each other. It's a great opportunity. She surely is very excited about this.
00:44:40I'm James Turner. You're...
00:44:48Jimmy? Don't you remember me?
00:44:55I'm sorry, but I can seem to.
00:45:00Perhaps this will help you to remember?
00:45:08I thought as much.
00:45:10It's me, your beloved Mabel.
00:45:16Mabel?
00:45:18What the...
00:45:40You know, Mabel, next year is going to be a whole new world to me.

00:45:50Life after college. It's a bit scary, but I'm so excited. I want to work in real estate and I can't wait what I can achieve.
00:46:01I'm sure nothing can stop you from the goal.
00:46:09I can't wait to graduate so we can get married.
00:46:13Yeah, I know.
00:46:16Did you lock the door?
00:46:17Of course I did.
00:46:18Hope you won't change after you leave.
00:46:23I won't.
00:46:24I won't.
00:46:39Mabel?
00:46:41James, I can't explain.
00:46:44I'm so sorry you have to find out like this, but Mabel and I have been together for a while now.

01:02:50Samantha
01:02:51found anything?
01:02:52yes I got a lead
01:02:53it's been a challenging investigation
01:02:55but I've uncovered some crucial information leads on Richard Kingsley
01:03:01I'm listening
01:03:02he went to the same college with Mia
01:03:05and he developed an obsession over her everything
01:03:09he seems
01:03:10he's been stalking your life
01:03:11collecting information
01:03:13and attempting to get her
01:03:16this is insane
01:03:17how did he head so close to us?
01:03:19he used the virus, illnesses and keep a low profile
01:03:23which made it challenging to track him
01:03:26but we've identified his patterns and his current location
01:03:30either device involving the authorities
01:03:33and getting a restraining order against him
01:03:36thank you Samantha
01:03:37I appreciate your dedication
01:03:39you and Mia deserve peace James
01:03:41I will continue to monitor the situation
01:03:44but please take legal action to protect yourself
01:03:49I'll take care of her
01:03:51and it's time for me to take control

01:11:20took a lot out of me
01:11:21I'm so sorry for everything that has happened.
01:11:28I love you.
01:11:31And I guess carrying a baby also takes away from my strength.
01:11:39What?
01:11:41What did you just say?
01:11:44Well, I've been having some fainting incidents recently,
01:11:49so I went to the hospital by myself,
01:11:53and it looks like in eight months you're going to become a dad.
01:12:03What?
01:12:05You're pregnant?
01:12:08Oh my God!
01:12:10I can't believe!
01:12:12I had no idea!
01:12:14You should have told me earlier!
01:12:16I can't believe we're becoming parents!
01:12:18This is the most exciting moment in my life!
01:12:21I knew you would be happy.
01:12:24James, with the baby coming and the incidents behind us,
01:12:30I think it's time we come clean to our parents.
01:12:34They deserve to know the truth,
01:12:36and we have to tell them they have a grandchild on the way.
01:12:41You're right, Mia.
01:12:43It's time to be honest with them.
01:12:48I'm so happy.
01:12:53You know, Mia, I was thinking I want a girl.
01:12:57She'll have your eyes and my smile.
01:12:59Oh, really?
01:13:00I'm imagining a boy with your intelligence and my sense of beauty.
01:13:07But as long as the little one is healthy, I'm satisfied.
01:13:12I've never been more excited about the future.
01:13:15Me too, James.
01:13:16This journey, our journey, it's been a surprise in every sense of the word.
01:13:22Surprise can be a good thing, right?
01:13:24And maybe, just maybe, we'll have the best of both worlds.
01:13:28Breakfast in bed for my beautiful princess.
01:13:38Oh my god.
01:13:41Are you trying to spoil me?
01:13:43Maybe I am.
01:13:44You deserve it.
01:13:45This looks amazing.
01:13:47I love the nuggets.
01:13:50I believe in us, James.
01:13:53We've gone through a lot of challenges and come out even stronger.
01:13:59Tonight is the last step for us to become a real couple.
01:14:04I'm lucky to have you here by my side, Mia.
01:14:10It doesn't matter how angry they get upon hearing the news.
01:14:15We'll face it together.
01:14:21Mom, we need to tell you something about our marriage.
01:14:26I'm going to start with the live tune of all of you.
01:14:35And it was a business arrangement.
01:14:39But over time, we fell in love with each other.
01:14:45We want to make it real.
01:14:49And we'd like to have your blessing for real this time.
01:14:54Well, your marriage, contract or not, has looked pretty real to me from the very beginning.
01:15:04And I'm glad you guys are brave enough to admit the mistakes.
01:15:09And go on with your real, happy marriage life.
01:15:15Thank you for understanding, Mom.
01:15:20I'll always be there for her.
01:15:23And we have a new member coming to the family soon.
01:15:27Let's take it real.
01:15:31OK.
01:15:32I'm glad for you.
01:15:34Thanks, woman.
01:15:35Yeah.
01:15:36Mo, good morning.
01:15:37Thanks.
01:15:38It was a different story.
01:15:40I'm glad we got in.
01:15:41Hi.
01:15:42I'm glad we heard you.
01:15:43Thanks.
01:15:44We done.
01:15:45Then I came in the party.
01:15:46I think we are going home.
01:15:48The guest, or me, football.
01:15:50I ask you to be home with a happy event.
01:15:52We 30 hours last Sunday.
