04:27Gerber do you take Joshua Lane for your lawfully wedded husband I do
04:34the rings
04:43you may now kiss the bride
04:57let's get one thing straight Mia this marriage is a show for our family and
05:02the rest of the world don't expect any affection from me understood and vice
05:07versa
05:23my parents want to set up a dinner with us my assistant will set it up she can
05:28coordinate schedules with my assistant
05:48Joshua has always been so distant with people unlike Alex here who's so popular
05:56and charismatic you should see all the woman that can't stop chasing well at
06:03least I don't have to worry if Alex can give me a grandson but I wonder Joshua
06:09if you can even warm up enough to give me a child we need an heir after all
06:15Eleanor that's enough I'm just saying perhaps Alex is a better fit to leave
06:23quite the contrary actually Josh was very passionate especially in the
06:30bedroom no doubt that you'll have that heir soon for your information passion
06:42is not in my DNA nor does it align with my personal brand but still thank you
06:49for standing up for me I just didn't appreciate your stepmoms attitude
07:01get the campaign ready I want that jerk out Asa
07:09no hey I need a favor you're right Alex and Eleanor Lane are behind a smear
07:17campaign against Joshua blue diamond PR is already involved what agency are we
07:22using we're still deciding bids are open for this year's contract perfect I have
07:30a plan I'm offering the Gerber corporation's annual PR budget it's one
07:37of the largest in the industry that's an enticing offer miss Gerber what do you
07:43ask of me in return I need you to withdraw from any campaign against
07:47Joshua Lane I don't mind I'll cover the cancellation fee
07:56you have a deal the Gerber corporation account is too good to pass up there's a
08:03little more I need you to spread the word any PR firm that goes against
08:08Joshua Lane will be blacklisted from the Gerber corporation and our allies
08:13you got it no one in this industry would be stupid enough to fight against the
08:18Gerber corporation wonderful looking forward to a fruitful partnership I have
08:29evidence of Alex's scheme against you but don't worry I've already taken care
08:33of it I always knew Eleanor and Alex to be after my position I just didn't
08:39expect Alex to be this bold how do you know about this Alex struck me as
08:44opportunistic a smear campaign is the easiest way to sway the shareholders
08:48opinion and Eleanor's background in PR made this move predictable
08:52you're more perceptive than I thought why are you helping me
08:59our family's Alliance is crucial protecting you means protecting the
09:03Gerber corporation it's all business
09:08business right well in that case I should help you with your beef with
09:13Catherine and Bradley right how did you know about that
09:19didn't expect me to enter into the marriage without doing background checks
09:22I just don't get what the big deal about your exes I mean he cheated on you so
09:28what she must be faking it to trap you how dare you you had no right to dig
09:40into my past like that I can take care of myself what just happened to your
09:51new position as senior VP and it's all thanks to my help of course absolutely
09:59you're my lucky charm honey
10:06imagine if I'd stayed with Mia poor and powerless that's all she ever was she's
10:11a joke a stepping-stone at best you by my side we are unstoppable
10:27Catherine's Hospital is resisting our acquisition Bradley has the new senior
10:32VP is leading the pushback do they know I'm the CEO yet no as per your request
10:38perfect keep at it
10:44now how do I pull this off there are gaps in Mia's medical record right after
10:56her breakup these are from the Gerber corporation's own hospital only someone
11:01higher up from within can access it
11:08I want to know what happened to Mia during that gap after the breakup even
11:14if I know why would I tell you Mia helped me but unless I understand that
11:18part of the puzzle I won't be able to return her favor to care for her don't
11:25dislike her now Mia deserves someone who truly loves her not you she's a grown
11:33woman she knows what she wants nobody to tell her what she deserves especially
11:37not you
11:45you can choose not to share the information but you won't be helping her
11:51your choice
11:55all right look if you have to know unfortunately Mia had a miscarriage
12:03because of an accident involving Bradley and Catherine
12:21how are you feeling it's none of your business not that you would know what
12:29that means I'm sorry for overstepping and being
12:33insensitive I learned about your miscarriage I had no idea you didn't
12:38know that doesn't excuse my behavior I apologize I may have overreacted you
12:46were hurting that's understandable so you're not a robot like everyone says
12:51you are of course I'm not who says that everyone in your family your friends
12:57your co-workers enemies I even heard the maids joking about it the other day
13:03fire them all no no no it's it's okay they're allowed to joke they've been

14:32protect our families alliances your enemies are my enemies now Thank You

16:15just I need you to know that I will always care about you deeply
16:32you're really like they say tall handsome powerful

22:47♪♪♪
22:54Made you some soup.
22:57Thank you.
23:00It's... very unique.
23:04What is this?
23:05My mom's recipe.
23:07Before she passed away, she used to make it for me when I was sick.
23:10I thought it might comfort me.
23:12I must have made it wrong.
23:13It's... it's wonderful.
23:15I don't know how to thank you enough.
23:18It's nothing.
23:20I just did what I had to do.
23:24Joshua...
23:26Joshua...
23:28Is this still just a marriage of convenience for you?
23:33Excuse me, Mr. and Mrs. Lane.
23:34A guest has arrived.
23:36Her name is Susie Harper.
23:38Susie's back?
23:44Oh, I've missed you so much!
23:52Susie, it's been ages.
23:55When's the last time we saw each other?
23:58Four years ago, before I went abroad.
24:01It's been too long.
24:02Welcome back, Sus.
24:03I came back just for you.
24:06Oh, there's so much...
24:07Hey.
24:09Susie, this is my wife, Mia.
24:14Mia, this is Susie, an old friend of mine.
24:17So, you're the one Joshua had to marry.
24:20No, Susie, that's enough.
24:22That's enough.
24:23Joshua and I have a special bond, you know?
24:27We've been friends since, like, forever.
24:31He means a lot to me.
24:32I want him to be happy.
24:34I think we all want that.
24:36Do you?
24:37Joshua and I talk often over the phone.
24:40He confides in me.
24:42I'm one of the few he truly trusts.
24:44He mentioned he was quite unhappy about the marriage.
24:48Right, uh...
24:49Well, it seems like you two have a lot to catch up on.
24:51So, I'll leave you to it.
25:07Susie, why would you say those things?
25:11I told you I have doubts before the wedding, not since then.
25:14Joshua, you're clearly unhappy. I was just speaking up for you.
25:19I don't need you to look out for me.
25:22I'm sorry. I just...
25:26I was trying to help, since you clearly didn't want the marriage.
25:32I don't mind it, though.
25:34Do you like her?
25:36She's fine.
25:39This means I still have a chance.
25:41Joshua, if I had stayed by your side,
25:44you never would have had to marry a complete stranger like me and Gerber.
25:49I'm sure it hasn't been pleasant.
25:52Now that I'm back, you can always talk to me.
25:55Susie, you're a great friend.
25:58Of course.
25:59I'll always be there for you.
26:06How's it going?
26:08How's it going?
26:11It's this marriage.
26:13It's Joshua. He's like a shadow. He's always there, but never really close.
26:19You deserve someone who can give you all the love and appreciation you need.
26:24Remember, if you ever need anything, I'm here.
26:29Thank you, Noah.
26:32How could I live without you?
26:37I can't live without you.
26:59How could I live without you?
27:03I'd do everything to protect you, Mia.
27:08Please.
27:16Joshua!
27:19We can't be like this forever. We have to talk.
27:24Why don't you talk to Noah?
27:26It seems like you have plenty to say to him.
27:28I don't even know what that means.
27:30There's nothing between Noah and me.
27:32You and Susie, on the other hand.
27:34What?
27:35Whatever you think, I don't care.
27:53What's he doing here?
27:57Look, I'm here to deliver some documents to Mia.
28:06And if you ever hurt her, just know that I will protect her at all costs.
28:11And what exactly have you done to protect her?
28:14It seems like all talk but no action.
28:16What are you two doing?
28:20What's going on here? Joshua, why are you acting so irrational?
28:23This is ridiculous! You invite him into our house just to talk to him?
28:26I didn't invite... Joshua!
28:29I'm sorry, Mia. I didn't mean to cause any rift between you two.
28:32I'm sorry, Mia. I didn't mean to cause any rift between you two.
28:35It wasn't my intention.
28:36It's fine.
28:37Why are you here?
28:38I'm here to protect you and the company.
28:41I suspect that Dwayne Kaiser has been conspiring with Melody Healthcare.
28:47Is that Dwayne?
28:49And the CEO of Melody Healthcare.
28:55This plan is our game changer.
28:58What about Melody Healthcare? They're our biggest rival.
29:01They're going in a completely different direction.
29:03We're way ahead of them.
29:06And how do you know that?
29:08The CEO approached me the other day.
29:10He tried to get some information from me, but I flipped it and got some information from him.
29:14Like I betrayed my own company.
29:16He'd be a fool to think that.
29:18Right. Of course, Dwayne.
29:20Let's go ahead with the plan.
29:23See? He's fine.
29:26I don't know. There's something strange about him.
29:29I can't put my finger on it, but just keep your eyes open, okay?
29:34I will.
29:38Mia suspected, but I made her trust me now.
29:43Let's go ahead and move forward with the plan.
29:46Excellent.
29:47Let's go ahead and move forward with the plan.
29:51Excellent.
29:52Once we execute the strategy, the Gerbers will be blindsided.
29:56Melody Healthcare will be the number one.
30:00Mia Gerber will be out of the company, and I'll be the number one.
30:10How did they get ahead of us?
30:12This was our strategy.
30:14Where's Dwayne?
30:15He's outside.
30:18Phew.
30:29Melody Healthcare just announced their new AI-generated online psychiatric care.
30:34The similarity of the details to ours is uncanny.
30:40I don't know.
30:41We kept everything under wraps.
30:44They must have developed this independently.
30:46Mia, you're just too young.
30:49You're not experienced enough in this business world.
30:51This stuff happens.
30:53I'm experienced enough to know that this is not a coincidence.
30:57And I don't need you to tell me what I do and do not know.
31:01You can leave.
31:16Why do you look so sullen all the time?
31:18It doesn't look good on you.
31:21Wow.
31:22Thanks for the comfort.
31:28Damn it. Why did I have to say that like that?
31:32Ms. Gerber, an emergency board meeting has been called.
31:35What?
31:37Okay.
31:43We need to talk about the leadership of this company.
31:46It is clear that Mia's recent decisions, well, they've been questionable.
31:55Acquiring Catherine Phinney's hospital was a big misstep.
32:00Now Melody's Healthcare is outpacing us.
32:03Mia, I'm sorry, but you're too young and inexperienced to be in this role.
32:09I believe under my leadership, our profits have already increased by 20% compared to last year.
32:15That's due to the overall market trend, not because your leadership.
32:21My strategies have been more than effective.
32:24The Finley acquisition has potential long-term benefits.
32:27And our growth, by the way, is not just a fluke.
32:30This company, this board needs a leader with experience and vision.
32:36Not someone learning on a job.
32:38As a senior VP, on behalf of all the employees with Gerber Corporation, we support Mia.
32:44I also have evidence that Dwayne Kaiser has been conspiring with Melody Healthcare to undermine the company.
32:49I also have evidence that Dwayne Kaiser has been conspiring with Melody Healthcare to undermine the company.
32:54What is this? What are you doing?
32:56These are communications between Dwayne and Melody Healthcare.
32:59He leaked our strategy.
33:05You're fired, Dwayne. Effective immediately.
33:07I've been with you since you founded the company.
33:09All these years, I'm never the CEO, but you give it to your daughter?
33:13I've always known you were ambitious, but I never thought you would stoop this low.
33:17I've always known you were ambitious, but I never thought you would stoop this low.
33:21Your lack of trustworthiness is why you were never CEO.
33:26We built this company on integrity and trust.
33:29Values you clearly lack.
33:33Security, escort Mr. Kaiser out.
33:36Wait. Dane.
33:48Mia, we're so proud of you. You really handled the crisis well.
33:52Thank you.
33:54You truly are our government.
33:59Noah, I can't thank you enough.
34:01Of course. You know I'd do anything for you.
34:04You know, I never asked, but how did you get your hands on those documents?
34:08It all started with an anonymous tip.
34:12Someone delivered photos of Dwayne meeting with the owner of Melody Healthcare,
34:15and I intercepted the tip.
34:19This is your schedule for the week.
34:21And what's this?
34:23Um, seems to be about Mr. Kaiser.
34:25Okay, I'll take that too. Thanks.
34:37Anonymous. Who would do that?
34:40I don't know, but the photos led me to dig deeper,
34:44and eventually I found clear evidence of his betrayal.
34:48Can I see the photos?
34:56I think I might know who's behind this, but I need to confirm.
