00:00:00You have to be prepared. I don't have long. I'm not going to let you die, Mo. You're going
00:00:17to beat this cancer. Danny, what are you doing? What does it look like I'm doing? Your
00:00:30rent's late. It didn't. It's two days late and you said it wouldn't be an issue. I changed
00:00:42my mind. So, unless you want to pay up with that tight little lot of yours, you're out
00:00:49by tomorrow morning. Please, you know my mom's cancer treatments are expensive and I've never
00:01:02been late before. You should have thought of that before dumping me. I'll get you the money. I have
00:01:15a job interview today and the signing bonus will be more than enough to cover it. Just give me 24
00:01:20hours. Then you better get that job. Tick tock, cupcake. Billionaire financer Robert Montgomery
00:01:44has announced his retirement from Montgomery Enterprises this morning. The company he built
00:01:49five decades ago. His successor is presumed to be Aston Montgomery, his eldest son and heir,
00:01:55who is known not only for his playboy ways, but his corporate ruthlessness. Stella Evans?
00:02:03Come with me. So, you don't have any corporate experience and you didn't even graduate from
00:02:21college? Well, something came up at home and I couldn't. I'm not running a charity, Ms. Evans.
00:02:28I'm sorry, but I can't hire you. Please, I really need the money. So do 400 other applicants. What
00:02:38makes you so special? I may not be experienced, but I'm a quick learner and I really need the
00:02:49money. And I need someone who already knows what they're doing. This interview is over.
00:02:53Hey, you can't just walk away from me, you entitled prick. What did you say to me? You
00:03:05heard me just as you think you're better than everyone else. Shut up. What is that doing in
00:03:30my office? That, Mr. Montgomery, is your love child.
00:04:00I'm a father. What do I do? You said you needed a job. Help me.
00:04:30I can't believe that worked. See, you didn't need my help after all. So the rumors are true. I'm a
00:04:45grandfather. No, father, this is... The board will never let an irresponsible playboy lead the
00:04:50company. You said there'd be no more scandals. I have no choice but to turn the company over to
00:04:57your brother, Clive. No, father, there are no scandals. Father, this is Stella, my fiance and
00:05:08the mother of my child. What the fuck? Excuse me? You expect me to believe this low class woman is
00:05:22your fiance? Do not speak about her that way. I love her. And I'm tired of hiding it. Right, honey?
00:05:31Please go with it. Right. Even in secret, Aston is a wonderful fiance. On the outside, he's a
00:05:50hardened businessman, but on the inside, he's a total sweetheart. Well, only for you. You saw
00:06:01through it the moment we met. Don't mistake me for a fool, son. If I find out you're lying, I will strip
00:06:10you of the company and your inheritance, and you'll have nothing left. Okay, we need to figure this
00:06:24out. We? Oh, there is no we. I am so out of here. You can't go. I need you. You're a billionaire. You
00:06:36can have any woman. Why me? You said you needed money, right? I happen to have a lot of it. Be my
00:06:46fiance and the mother of my child until my father signs the company over to me. Then I will pay you
00:06:51five million dollars. We can go our separate ways, and we will never see each other again. Five
00:06:57million dollars could change everything. It could help me save my mom. Do we have a deal, Miss Evans?
00:07:06Fine. But only because my rent's overdue, and I need you to pay it. Done. I'll have my assistant wire the
00:07:16money today. And you're mine. Starting right now.
00:07:21Excuse me, is this your child? Why are you trying to keep this under wraps here? Step aside. Mr. Montgomery, how'd you hide your fiance and child for so long? Miss Evans, did you have this baby on purpose to trap him? Don't. Ignore me, bitch. Be a good girl.
00:07:51Give me your watch. Get off of her! Come on, sweetheart. You're just a little gold digger, aren't you?
00:08:02You want a quote? Fine. Our engagement announcement was ruined by some grabby asshole with a camera.
00:08:10And one more thing. Touch my fiance again, I'll break more than just your camera.
00:08:16Sir, sir, sir! Mr. Montgomery, can you answer our question, please? Mr. Montgomery, you cannot ignore us, Mr. Montgomery. Come on now, Mr. Montgomery. Sir, what do you have to say?
00:08:24This place is beautiful. So what do we do now? Simple. We do what fiancés do.
00:08:55Look at me.
00:09:03What the hell was that?
00:09:05This is part of the deal. We have to sell it. I have someone looking into where Emma came from. It should all be sorted out soon.
00:09:13What will be sorted, brother?
00:09:15Clive?
00:09:17Welcome home.
00:09:19This fiancé and baby certainly came out of nowhere, didn't they?
00:09:21What are you doing here, Clive?
00:09:23I came to meet my niece and soon-to-be sister-in-law, you know, since it all happened so fast.
00:09:29Stella.
00:09:31Stella.
00:09:33Stella.
00:09:35Stella.
00:09:37What are you doing here, Clive?
00:09:39I came to meet my niece and soon-to-be sister-in-law, you know, since it all happened so fast.
00:09:47Stella Evans, is it? And what trash barrel did you crawl out of?
00:09:57The trash barrel I crawled out of is none of your business.
00:10:01Oh, contraire, mon chéri. It's most definitely my business.
00:10:07The Montgomerys don't associate with peasants. Bad for business.
00:10:11Leave her alone!
00:10:13For what?
00:10:15Care to find out?
00:10:19Care to find out?
00:10:23So, my playboy brother does have feelings. And for a low-class gold digger, no less.
00:10:30Be careful. It's only a matter of time before he dumps you and that baby back into the gutter where you came from.
00:10:42She's cute.
00:10:47Looks just like you, brother.
00:10:53Get away from our baby and get out of our house!
00:10:56Fine. But there's something weird going on here, and I'll find out what it is.
00:11:01The CEO position will be mine. And the first thing I'll do is fire you, brother.
00:11:19Is everyone in your family like that?
00:11:22My half-brother is just the tip of the iceberg. So keep your guard up.
00:11:31I have a few things I have to do. Your room is upstairs.
00:11:38What have I gotten myself into? At least I'll be able to take care of my mom when this is all over.
00:11:45If there's anything you need while I'm gone, just call. But the nurse will take care of you.
00:11:49How did you get the money for a nurse? It's so expensive.
00:11:53I... I got a job. Don't worry about me.
00:12:01I gotta go. I'll see you soon.
00:12:05Oh!
00:12:13Holy hot!
00:12:20See something you like?
00:12:25I...
00:12:28Miss Evans? Everything okay?
00:12:33Everything okay?
00:12:37Emma needs us.
00:12:40Right behind you.
00:12:48What's wrong with her?
00:12:51Hey, baby. Hey. There you go. Good job, baby girl.
00:12:59How did you do that?
00:13:01She wanted to be held. We should hold her.
00:13:04Oh, I don't know about that.
00:13:06She's your daughter. She probably wants you more than anyone else.
00:13:11Trust me. I wish my dad was around.
00:13:15I've never held a baby before and she's so little I don't want to hurt her.
00:13:23Here we go.
00:13:32No.
00:13:41Okay. Baby steps. Say goodnight to your daughter.
00:13:55Goodnight, Emma.
00:14:02It's the private investigator.
00:14:05The sooner I find out who Emma's mom is, the better.
00:14:10Did the private chef make all this?
00:14:13No. I did.
00:14:17A playboy's job.
00:14:20I'm sorry.
00:14:23I'm sorry.
00:14:26I'm sorry.
00:14:29I'm sorry.
00:14:32I'm sorry.
00:14:35I'm sorry.
00:14:38A playboy billionaire who cooks.
00:14:41Maybe I misjudged you.
00:14:44Not such a prick after all, huh?
00:14:47Maybe life with Aston won't be so bad after all.
00:14:53But back to business.
00:14:57My family is coming over for dinner tonight.
00:15:01They want to meet you.
00:15:03Your family? Aston, I can't.
00:15:05Oh, you can. And you will.
00:15:16This is part of the deal.
00:15:18If you want the money, everyone has to believe that you're my fiancé and the mother of my child, starting with my family.
00:15:29Mom?
00:15:31Mom?
00:15:33Can you hear me?
00:15:35My mom's in trouble.
00:15:42Danny, what are you doing? I paid you.
00:15:46Well, I changed my mind when I heard you were checking out with some billionaire.
00:15:56Knock it off. You know my mom needs that medicine.
00:16:00Now that you've come into some money, you can pay me more.
00:16:04Two years' rent should do it.
00:16:07She'll pay you what she owes you and not a cent more.
00:16:15Is this your billionaire boyfriend?
00:16:17Actually, he's my fiancé.
00:16:21And he's rich and powerful.
00:16:25He has a bigger dick than you.
00:16:30You really think you're good enough for him?
00:16:35I only fucked you because I felt sorry for you and your dying child.
00:16:46Stella is more than good enough for me. If you touch her again, I will kill you.
00:16:51Fuck you.
00:16:57Those are for my fiancé. And this one's for me.
00:17:05Stella?
00:17:07Mom!
00:17:09Mom!
00:17:11Hey, hey.
00:17:13Stella, he took my medicine.
00:17:17I have it right here, Mrs. Evans.
00:17:21That man will never bother you again. I will make sure of it.
00:17:28And I'm sending someone for your things. They're coming to live with us.
00:17:40Thank you for helping me with my mom.
00:17:45That wasn't part of the deal.
00:17:52Not everything I do has to be about our deal, Stella.
00:18:06Still, thank you.
00:18:10And I'm sorry for calling you a prick earlier.
00:18:12Why?
00:18:14I can be a prick.
00:18:16When I really want to be.
00:18:20Speaking of our deal.
00:18:22Be ready by 7pm for the family dinner.
00:18:26But I have nothing to wear.
00:18:30I'll take care of that.
00:18:42Okay.
00:19:08I hoped you'd pick the red.
00:19:10You look beautiful.
00:19:14I'm still debating what shoes to wear, though.
00:19:16Allow me.
00:19:40There's one thing missing.
00:19:56There's one thing missing.
00:20:02A ring.
00:20:04May I?
00:20:10It's beautiful, but it's too much.
00:20:16It's only for appearances, nothing more.
00:20:18Please wear it.
00:20:30Shall we?
00:20:40Yes.
00:20:52You ready to sell this?
00:21:00Aston, a word.
00:21:04It'll take a moment.
00:21:07Go.
00:21:10I'll be fine.
00:21:26Stella, how nice of you to join us.
00:21:30This is the woman who trapped our Aston with a bastard child.
00:21:36Funny, it's hard to believe that you had a baby less than a year ago.
00:21:42Mother, be nice.
00:21:44I'm sure Stella's trying her best.
00:21:50Oh, I didn't know Aston had a sister.
00:21:54Sister?
00:21:56No.
00:21:58I'm Clarissa.
00:22:00Aston's ex-fiancee.
00:22:06Oh God, is she pregnant with Aston's baby?
00:22:16No wonder Aston didn't introduce you earlier.
00:22:20You're nothing like me.
00:22:22And thank God for that.
00:22:24Stella would never cheat on me and get knocked up by my brother.
00:22:26At least we didn't hide our child from the entire family.
00:22:30That's right.
00:22:32He even is my step-grandbaby.
00:22:36You see, Robert, he's as negligent a father as he would be a CEO.
00:22:40She's with the nanny.
00:22:42To keep her from the judgment of people like you.
00:22:44All that matters is our judgment.
00:22:46And bringing in this peasant certainly doesn't help your case.
00:22:52Excuse me?
00:22:54Who are you calling peasant?
00:22:56Being rich doesn't mean you can walk all over me.
00:22:58How dare you talk back to me like that?
00:23:04You can't even control your worthless fiancee.
00:23:10You'll never be good enough to be CEO.
00:23:22Aston is the only person who should run Montgomery Enterprises.
00:23:26Anyone else's CEO would be a mistake.
00:23:28Especially your son.
00:23:38You have upset my fiancee and I won't stand for that.
00:23:42Dinner is cancelled.
00:23:44Get out of my house.
00:23:48Now.
00:23:56I'm sorry if I was out of line.
00:24:06No.
00:24:08Thank you for defending me.
00:24:10You didn't have to do that.
00:24:12Of course I did.
00:24:14I'm your fiancee.
00:24:16I never should have brought you into this.
00:24:18It's not fair to you.
00:24:20I'll pay you what I owe you.
00:24:22Just take the money and go, Stella.
00:24:24What's going to happen to you and Emma?
00:24:26Don't worry about us.
00:24:28I do worry about you.
00:24:30I care about you.
00:24:32I care about you.
00:24:34I care about you.
00:24:36I care about you.
00:24:38I care about you.
00:24:40I care about you.
00:24:42I care about you.
00:24:44I care about you both.
00:24:46I'm sorry, Stella, but...
00:24:48this contract between us is over.
00:24:54What contract?
00:25:02What contract?
00:25:08I told you what would happen if I caught you lying.
00:25:10We're not lying.
00:25:12Prove it.
00:25:18We were just
00:25:20talking about the contract for our wedding venue.
00:25:22So excited to get planning.
00:25:28I see.
00:25:30I see.
00:25:42You've saved me twice in the last 20 minutes.
00:25:48You're not what I expected.
00:25:50What did you expect?
00:25:54I don't know.
00:25:56Not you.
00:26:01Why are you looking at me
00:26:03like you want to kiss me?
00:26:05Because I do want to kiss you.
00:26:13Because I do want to kiss you.
00:26:15That's all I've thought about
00:26:17since you put on that red dress.
00:26:25We probably shouldn't complicate
00:26:27this whole fake
00:26:29relationship thing.
00:26:31Especially since we're not actually getting married.
00:26:35You're right.
00:26:37We'll break off this engagement
00:26:39as soon as possible and
00:26:41we'll both get everything we want.
00:26:59I have some good news.
00:27:01You're getting married.
00:27:03Tomorrow.
00:27:11Congratulations.
00:27:13By this time tomorrow
00:27:15you'll officially be husband and wife.
00:27:17Tomorrow?
00:27:19Unless there's some sort of
00:27:21problem with getting married tomorrow.
00:27:23It's just
00:27:25we're not getting married.
00:27:28We're not in a rush.
00:27:30But the board is.
00:27:32A child out of wedlock
00:27:34is a scandal.
00:27:36And one that must be remedied immediately.
00:27:41I hope that won't be a problem.
00:27:51Married?
00:27:53That wasn't part of the deal.
00:27:55No.
00:27:57But would it be so bad
00:27:59being married to me?
00:28:07Yes!
00:28:09Do you know how many women I would have to beat off with a stick?
00:28:11It would be exhausting!
00:28:13Seriously, Aston.
00:28:15I don't know.
00:28:17Take some time to think about it.
00:28:21But I need an answer tonight.
00:28:33Mom.
00:28:35How did you know
00:28:37when you were ready to get married?
00:28:39I don't think anybody
00:28:41ever
00:28:43knows.
00:28:45Anybody ever
00:28:47is ready, truly.
00:28:49I mean, your father
00:28:51and I certainly weren't.
00:28:53You weren't?
00:28:55No. We were young.
00:28:57Too young, even.
00:29:01But your father made me feel
00:29:03the way I'd never felt before.
00:29:05He made me feel loved.
00:29:07Valued.
00:29:09Whole.
00:29:15But...
00:29:27It didn't even work out.
00:29:29It ended before I was born.
00:29:33Just because something doesn't last
00:29:35doesn't mean you can't
00:29:37enjoy it while you have it.
00:29:45Yes.
00:29:47Your father gave me you.
00:29:49Which is more than enough.
00:29:51I can't deny it.
00:29:53I want to marry Aston.
00:29:55Even if it's temporary.
00:29:57He and Emma are my family.
00:29:59It would break my heart
00:30:01when it's all over.
00:30:11She just went down.
00:30:16Look, I know this isn't what you wanted.
00:30:18And...
00:30:20You deserve to marry someone
00:30:22who truly cares about you.
00:30:24So...
00:30:27If you want to walk away now, I...
00:30:29I won't blame you.
00:30:33So...
00:30:35Do you have an answer for me?
00:30:40So...
00:30:42Do you have an answer for me?
00:30:44I do.
00:30:48Aston, look at me.
00:30:55I never thought I would get married
00:30:57as part of a contract, but...
00:30:59I said I'd help you.
00:31:01And I'll keep my word.
00:31:06It means a lot to me.
00:31:08I have to say, I'm surprised Aston is going through with this.
00:31:11I definitely thought that he would have dumped you by now.
00:31:14He probably will once he sees her in that rag.
00:31:18It was my mother's wedding dress.
00:31:20Of course it was.
00:31:22Only a poor person would wear something like that.
00:31:24I'm surprised your Prince Charming didn't buy you something better.
00:31:27He clearly doesn't care about you.
00:31:39Aston cares about me.
00:31:41And I don't need a dress to prove it.
00:31:43Are you sure?
00:31:45If he really loved you,
00:31:47he would have given you his mother's ring.
00:31:53Are you sure?
00:31:55If he really loved you,
00:31:57he would have given you his mother's ring.
00:32:09Is that what he gave you, Clarissa?
00:32:12No.
00:32:14But that's only because I wanted something bigger.
00:32:20From Mr. Montgomery.
00:32:22For his fiancée.
00:32:24Oh my God.
00:32:26It's gorgeous.
00:32:28That's the late Mrs. Montgomery's necklace.
00:32:32That's supposed to be mine.
00:32:34I am under strict orders
00:32:37to allow nobody but Ms. Evans near this necklace.
00:32:41Especially you.
00:33:01You look like the future Mrs. Montgomery.
00:33:05I do.
00:33:07If only this were real.
00:33:24I know that you and Aston are lying about your relationship.
00:33:29So if you know what's best,
00:33:31So if you know what's best,
00:33:33you won't go through with this wedding.
00:33:35Aston isn't who you think he is.
00:33:42So if you know what's best,
00:33:44you won't go through with this wedding.
00:33:49Aston isn't the man you think he is.
00:33:51Whatever money you think you might be getting,
00:33:54whatever feelings you think he may have,
00:33:58it's all just one big lie.
00:34:00Your vision of the future is not the reality.
00:34:11Thank you for the advice.
00:34:13But I don't need it.
00:34:15I can handle myself.
00:34:17And nothing you say can scare me.
00:34:23Say no to Aston in front of everyone,
00:34:26or I'll make sure you regret it.
00:34:29Your choice, Stella Evans.
00:34:31Don't make the wrong one.
00:34:35Hi.
00:34:58You look beautiful.
00:35:00Hey.
00:35:03Is everything okay?
00:35:04Is it true?
00:35:05Is Aston just using me to get what he wants?
00:35:08Is he just using Emma?
00:35:10Dearly beloved,
00:35:12we are gathered here today
00:35:14to join this man and woman in holy matrimony.
00:35:17Marriage is powerful and what makes you feel lucky to be...
00:35:19You take Aston to be your lawfully wedded husband?
00:35:23I'm sorry, I can't marry you.
00:35:31I'm sorry, I can't marry you.
00:35:53Maria.
00:35:56What the hell was that about?
00:35:59Is this all fake, Aston?
00:36:01Every word you're telling me,
00:36:02every look you're giving me,
00:36:03is it all just some charade?
00:36:05Jesus.
00:36:06Is this necklace even real?
00:36:09God.
00:36:16Hey.
00:36:18Hey.
00:36:22Hey.
00:36:39I have meant every word I've said to you.
00:36:43None of this is a lie.
00:36:46And this necklace?
00:36:49My mother left it to me before she died.
00:36:52She said, uh,
00:36:54that I should only give it to someone I care about.
00:36:58Someone I saw a future with.
00:37:00No.
00:37:18I'm falling for you Stella Evans.
00:37:21I have been since the moment we met.
00:37:31I don't know how I feel right now.
00:37:34Today's just been a lot and...
00:37:37my mind is all over the place.
00:37:40You're right.
00:37:41This wedding's way too much, too soon.
00:37:45Stay here and...
00:37:47I'll tell everybody the wedding is off.
00:38:01Excellent.
00:38:02A runaway bride is an even bigger scandal than a love child.
00:38:14This must be a record, brother.
00:38:16Two fiancées down.
00:38:18At least this one made it to the altar.
00:38:22Hi everyone.
00:38:23Sorry to keep you waiting, but...
00:38:25there won't be...
00:38:26Any more interruptions.
00:38:31Who's ready for a wedding?
00:38:56Okay, let's try this again.
00:39:00Dearly beloved,
00:39:01we are gathered here today
00:39:03to join this man and this woman
00:39:05in holy matrimony.
00:39:07Marriage is powerful in ways you'd never expect.
00:39:10It's something that makes you feel lucky to be alive
00:39:13exactly when and where you are.
00:39:15It's choosing your partner
00:39:17at every moment of every day
00:39:20and of learning how to love
00:39:22even the darkest parts of another person.
00:39:24A true partner stays with you
00:39:26through thick and thin,
00:39:27in sickness and in health,
00:39:29for better or worse,
00:39:30for richer or poorer,
00:39:32on death do you part.
00:39:35Aston,
00:39:36do you take Stella to be your lawfully wedded wife?
00:39:39I do.
00:39:41And Stella,
00:39:42do you take this man to be your lawfully wedded husband?
00:39:54Stella,
00:39:55do you take this man to be your lawfully wedded husband?
00:39:59I do.
00:40:07I do.
00:40:09Good.
00:40:10You may kiss the bride now.
00:40:24I'd like to congratulate my eldest son on his marriage today.
00:40:29And to announce
00:40:30that he's going to be taking over Montgomery Enterprises
00:40:33as my successor and CEO tomorrow.
00:40:37Oh, this is bullshit.
00:40:39CEO should be mine.
00:40:44This is your fault, you little bitch.
00:40:46Guys, what's wrong?
00:40:48I hope that hurt.
00:40:49Oh my God.
00:40:50Not as much as this girl.
00:40:52You're my baby!
00:40:55Not as much as this girl.
00:40:57You're my baby!
00:41:01What the hell?
00:41:02You ruined my suit!
00:41:03If you touch my wife again, I will end you.
00:41:05Now get the hell out of my wedding.
00:41:13Baby!
00:41:14You're just going to stand there and let him do that?
00:41:18You're right.
00:41:19I should have stopped him before the slap.
00:41:22Let's get out of here before someone else tries to ruin our wedding day.
00:41:27Okay.
00:41:33Whoa.
00:41:35Are you okay?
00:41:41I'm fine.
00:41:43He barely got me.
00:41:48So...
00:41:50Husband.
00:41:52What should we do next?
00:41:57I don't know.
00:42:03I have wanted you since the moment we met.
00:42:07Mrs. Montgomery.
00:42:23Where are you going?
00:42:28If I don't leave now,
00:42:30I won't be able to stop myself
00:42:33from tearing you out of that dress.
00:42:38Is that what I wanted you to stop?
00:42:48Since the moment I met you,
00:42:50you have consumed my everything.
00:42:53I can't eat.
00:42:55I can't sleep.
00:42:56I can't work without thinking about you.
00:43:00Without imagining us.
00:43:05Do you love me?
00:43:08More than anything.
00:43:26I love you.
00:43:42Stella, help!
00:43:49The baby's not breathing.
00:43:57Hey.
00:43:58I don't know what happened.
00:43:59One minute she was breathing and the next thing she...
00:44:03Thank God.
00:44:05Hey.
00:44:07Hey, it's okay.
00:44:08She's okay now, see?
00:44:10Hi.
00:44:11It's okay.
00:44:21That's the most terrified I've ever been in my life.
00:44:24That's because she's your baby girl and you love her.
00:44:29What if I can't do this on my own?
00:44:32What if I can't raise an entire human being?
00:44:40You can do this.
00:44:42Actually, you already are doing it.
00:44:45All you have to do is love her.
00:44:48That's more than my dad did for me.
00:44:54It's the private investigator.
00:44:57He might have information on who Emma's mom is.
00:45:14Mom.
00:45:15I wanted to let you know that I went through with the wedding.
00:45:19And I brought you a picture.
00:45:21And I even wore your dress.
00:45:23Stella.
00:45:26Oh, you're so beautiful.
00:45:31I'm so glad you found someone to take care of you after my God.
00:45:39What are you talking about?
00:45:40Stella.
00:45:44What are you talking about?
00:45:52What's this?
00:45:54A clinical trial?
00:45:56But it costs ten million dollars?
00:45:58Something like that could save my mom.
00:46:00But how am I ever going to get that much money?
00:46:10Mom?
00:46:13Everything okay?
00:46:15Yep.
00:46:17What are you doing?
00:46:22I have to take a paternity test.
00:46:32I have to take a paternity test.
00:46:35I guess we'll know soon if I'm Emma's father.
00:46:39If?
00:46:41Well, they got the footage from the office the day Emma was dropped off.
00:46:45But the woman who was there...
00:46:48I don't recognize her.
00:46:52So you just forgot someone you slept with?
00:46:56That wasn't a good time in my life.
00:46:59And I made a lot of bad decisions.
00:47:01But I've changed.
00:47:03You've changed me.
00:47:06Which is why I need you to come with me to the board meeting today.
00:47:11You keep me grounded.
00:47:16Of course I'll go with you.
00:47:23Today is about more than my retirement.
00:47:26It's about you.
00:47:27Today is about more than my retirement.
00:47:30It's about the future of Montgomery Enterprises.
00:47:34A future that will be ripped to shreds if you allow your lying son to become CEO.
00:47:41What are you talking about?
00:47:45You.
00:47:47You're not the mother of his child.
00:47:52You're not the mother of his child.
00:47:55You're lying.
00:47:57They're both lying to all of you.
00:48:02Stella Evans.
00:48:05Ten o'clock interview with Aston Montgomery for the executive assistant position.
00:48:12Looks like he offered a different job to her altogether.
00:48:16This man would go so far as to marry a complete stranger in order to become your CEO.
00:48:23I don't know how much he's paying you, but it must be a lot.
00:48:28If this is true, son, you're an embarrassment to this family and this company.
00:48:35The board can't proceed with a vote.
00:48:41It's true.
00:48:43Stella was there to interview that day.
00:48:45Me.
00:48:47To see if I was up for the challenge to raising our daughter.
00:48:50But this isn't about my personal life.
00:48:52This is about what's best for Montgomery Enterprises going into the future.
00:48:55And since I've become COO, I have more than doubled our profits.
00:49:00And if that's not enough for you, then I don't know what is.
00:49:05It doesn't matter what you say.
00:49:08Mom already promised me the position of CEO would be mine.
00:49:12Enough.
00:49:15We will vote now.
00:49:18Is there a vote for Clive?
00:49:23And for Aston?
00:49:25Yes.
00:49:33It's a tie.
00:49:35So it all comes down to my father.
00:49:39And I have decided.
00:49:45The new CEO of Montgomery Enterprises is...
00:49:50The new CEO of Montgomery Enterprises is...
00:49:57Aston Montgomery.
00:50:03What about me?
00:50:05I've looked at the financials.
00:50:07You've spent more time at the country club than in the boardroom.
00:50:11It's not my fault their Cobb salads are excellent.
00:50:15And the boardroom is boring.
00:50:18And the boardroom is boring.
00:50:24Come on.
00:50:26Congratulations Aston.
00:50:28The new CEO of Montgomery Enterprises.
00:50:31But make me doubt anything else and I'll rip everything away from you two without hesitation.
00:50:48So what's your first act as CEO?
00:50:52I violate every page of the HR handbook.
00:50:55It's a good thing you never gave me that job.
00:51:02I need you.
00:51:08We can't. Somebody could walk in.
00:51:10So?
00:51:11So what? Remember what your dad said?
00:51:13We can't afford another scandal.
00:51:14Remember what your dad said?
00:51:16We can't afford another scandal.
00:51:23Aston.
00:51:25The board would like to see you.
00:51:27To go over some financials.
00:51:29Of course.
00:51:31Knock, knock.
00:51:35Clarissa, if you're here to bully me, I am not in the mood.
00:51:38That's not why I'm here.
00:51:40I'm here as a courtesy.
00:51:42You deserve the truth.
00:51:44And clearly Aston isn't going to give it to you.
00:51:51I'm not here to bully you.
00:51:53I'm here as a courtesy.
00:51:55You deserve the truth.
00:51:57And clearly Aston isn't going to give it to you.
00:52:00This baby isn't Clive's.
00:52:03It's Aston's.
00:52:12What the hell are you talking about?
00:52:14That baby cannot be Aston's.
00:52:16Well, we clearly couldn't tell you until the roost was over.
00:52:18Until he became CEO.
00:52:20But now that it's all over,
00:52:22and Aston got what he wanted,
00:52:24we don't need you anymore.
00:52:25He doesn't need you anymore.
00:52:40I don't believe you.
00:52:42Believe Aston then.
00:52:44Go ahead.
00:52:46Open that desk drawer.
00:52:56Oh my god.
00:52:58He signed the divorce papers.
00:53:00Clarissa's telling the truth.
00:53:11You can go now.
00:53:26Sweet Emma.
00:53:30I'm going to miss you so much.
00:53:33What's going on?
00:53:35I'm saying goodbye to Emma,
00:53:37and then I'm out of here.
00:53:39Just like you want me to be.
00:53:45Stella, why are you packing?
00:53:47Here. I signed them.
00:53:49You don't have to worry about me anymore.
00:53:51What are you talking about?
00:53:53Come on Aston!
00:53:55I was a fool to think we could ever be together.
00:53:57That we could ever have a family together.
00:53:59Oh, and by the way,
00:54:01congratulations on the baby.
00:54:03I hope you and Clarissa are really happy together.
00:54:06Wait!
00:54:13Wait!
00:54:18Please, let me explain.
00:54:26What could you possibly have to say to me?
00:54:31There is nothing and will never be anything
00:54:34between me and Clarissa ever again.
00:54:36I'm not even the father of her child.
00:54:38And these, I had these drawn up the day I met you before.
00:54:41I knew this could be anything more than a contract.
00:54:43And this, just, just, just take it.
00:54:47Please, just take everything out.
00:54:49All I want is you and Emma.
00:54:51I could take or leave anything else.
00:54:53You don't mean that.
00:54:55Of course I mean it.
00:54:57I have meant every word I have said to you.
00:55:01I'm in Stella, I'm all in.
00:55:04Are you?
00:55:10I'm in Stella, I'm all in.
00:55:13Are you?
00:55:20Yeah, I'm all in.
00:55:25Are you?
00:55:27Yes.
00:55:36The paternity results are in.
00:55:40I'm not Emma's father.
00:55:51The paternity results are in.
00:55:55I'm not Emma's father.
00:56:04I can't believe I'm not her father.
00:56:09If she doesn't belong to me, then
00:56:11why would that woman have shown up at my office
00:56:14and made me believe she was mine?
00:56:26I can't tell you why this is happening, Aston.
00:56:33But Emma's lucky to have you as a dad.
00:56:37Biological or not.
00:56:40We need to find the truth.
00:56:41And Emma's lucky to have you as a dad.
00:56:45Biological or not.
00:56:48We need to find the truth.
00:56:56Dahlia's behind it all.
00:57:02I'm not telling you anything.
00:57:04This isn't a game, Dahlia.
00:57:05She's a child.
00:57:06Where did Emma come from?
00:57:07Step down as CEO and I'll tell you.
00:57:09Step down as CEO and I'll tell you.
00:57:16Step down as CEO and I'll tell you.
00:57:18Are you kidding me?
00:57:20This is way bigger than a CEO position.
00:57:22This is a child's life you're messing with.
00:57:25Shut up, you little trill.
00:57:28If you hadn't come along pretending to be her mother,
00:57:31the scandal would have proceeded as planned.
00:57:34And that little child would be back at the orphanage,
00:57:37right where she belonged.
00:57:39Orphanage?
00:57:41That's right.
00:57:42The baby's trash, just like you.
00:58:01My hair!
00:58:04I'm asking you to come with me.
00:58:08You better get control of your little wife!
00:58:11Or nothing!
00:58:13You will not speak about my wife or my family that way.
00:58:16Get out.
00:58:30Call every orphanage in the city until you find one that's missing a baby.
00:58:33Call every orphanage in the city until you find one that's missing a baby.
00:58:42It's okay.
00:58:44It's okay, we're going to figure this out.
00:58:49Oh my god, did she just call me mama?
00:58:52She's yours if you want her to be.
00:58:58I don't want to be, but...
00:59:01Until we figure out what's going on, I can't get attached.
00:59:11Mr. Montgomery! Mr. Montgomery! Mr. Montgomery!
00:59:14What can you say about the recent allegations that Miss Evans is not the mother of your son's child?
00:59:20Mr. Montgomery! You can't ignore us! Mr. Montgomery!
00:59:28What's going on?
00:59:30The press is having a field day out there.
00:59:32I told you to. No more scandals!
00:59:35What are you talking about?
00:59:38I went out on a limb for you, son. I trusted you.
00:59:41And this has been a lie the whole time?
00:59:45You say she's the mother of your child? Prove it!
00:59:48Or I'll expect you to step down as CEO tomorrow morning.
00:59:54How do we prove it?
00:59:57Simple. Take a maternity test.
01:00:06How do we prove it?
01:00:09Simple. Take a maternity test.
01:00:13Mr. Montgomery! Mr. Montgomery! Mr. Montgomery!
01:00:20Mr. Montgomery! Mr. Montgomery! Mr. Montgomery!
01:00:23Come on, Aston!
01:00:25Whoa, whoa, whoa.
01:00:30Aston, if I take a maternity test they're going to know that Emma's not mine and then we may lose her.
01:00:36Forever.
01:00:37No!
01:00:43You should have never lied in the first place.
01:00:50Mom! Mom!
01:00:58My mom is dying!
01:01:04My head is so warm.
01:01:09It's okay.
01:01:18My heart was racing. I was so scared.
01:01:23It's okay.
01:01:27It's okay. It's all gonna be okay.
01:01:33It's okay.
01:01:43Hey.
01:01:45My mom's getting worse.
01:01:49She needs this experimental treatment, but we can't afford it, so...
01:01:55Why didn't you tell me?
01:01:59I didn't want to be a burden to you.
01:02:01You can never be a burden.
01:02:04How much does the treatment cost?
01:02:11Ten million dollars.
01:02:13I'll pay it. Every penny.
01:02:23I'll pay it. Every penny.
01:02:26Aston!
01:02:27Like I said, money doesn't matter. I would do anything for you, anything for our family.
01:02:38Thank you. You have no idea what this means to me.
01:02:52How do you always know just what to say to make me feel better?
01:02:56Because I know you. I know what you want. I know what you need.
01:03:01That's what happens to someone when you...
01:03:06When you... When you what?
01:03:11When you love someone.
01:03:14And I love you, Stella Evans.
01:03:20You love me?
01:03:23I do.
01:03:26I can't believe it's taking me so long to say it.
01:03:34Please tell me you feel the same.
01:03:39I do.
01:03:45Please tell me you feel the same.
01:03:56I don't know what I'm feeling. It's all just... It's too much.
01:04:04I understand.
01:04:10Hi, I'd like to pay a bill for Mary Evans.
01:04:15It has?
01:04:18By who?
01:04:22I see.
01:04:40A year ago, I gave up my baby girl.
01:04:45I had no choice, and it broke my heart.
01:04:50The chances are almost impossible, but I have to know.
01:04:55Could Emma be my daughter?
01:05:00Could Emma be my daughter?
01:05:13Hello? I'd like to schedule a maternity test.
01:05:18Hey, Stella, do you...
01:05:23Everything okay?
01:05:28Fine.
01:05:33You seem... off.
01:05:49I'm just stressed.
01:05:54I just can't stop thinking about Emma's mother and how our lives could come crashing down over some maternity test.
01:06:01Then don't take it.
01:06:03What?
01:06:05No, I can't ask you to do that. That's not fair to you.
01:06:10Don't worry about what's fair to me.
01:06:12It's all I'm worried about.
01:06:16You mean more to me than this CEO position.
01:06:19He's trying to help, but if Emma's somehow mine, I can save Aston's job and his reputation.
01:06:27Just don't do anything rash, okay?
01:06:31We still have until tomorrow to figure it out.
01:06:37I need to ask.
01:06:40Does the name Andrew Beaumont mean anything to you?
01:06:44No. Should it?
01:06:48Well, he paid for your mother's treatment.
01:06:52All ten million of it.
01:07:07Mom, who's Andrew Beaumont?
01:07:13How do you know about him?
01:07:18He paid for your treatment. Who is he?
01:07:25Mom?
01:07:27Mom?
01:07:29Mom!
01:07:30Someone call a doctor!
01:07:32Mom!
01:07:43I spoke with the doctors.
01:07:47She's been put in a medically induced coma until the swelling in her brain subsides.
01:07:53It's all my fault if I wouldn't have pushed her.
01:07:56No, Estella. It is not your fault.
01:08:02I know. I know. And I know she's sick. I just wish there was something I could do.
01:08:07She's with the doctors now.
01:08:09She's getting the treatment she needs.
01:08:12It'll all be fine.
01:08:15No matter how much you keep blaming yourself.
01:08:18I'll save her.
01:08:20I'll save her.
01:08:22I'll save her.
01:08:24I'll save her.
01:08:26I'll save her.
01:08:28No matter how much you keep blaming yourself.
01:08:31I'll say it again.
01:08:33It's not your fault.
01:08:58Okay, Emma. Time to learn the truth.
01:09:15In breaking news, CEO Aston Montgomery has called a last minute press conference to address the future of Montgomery Enterprises.
01:09:22Reporters have it on good authority that he is prepared to step down as CEO, handing the company over to his half-brother, Clive Montgomery, in the wake of a paternity scandal.
01:09:32Oh, my God. I can save him.
01:09:55Do you have anything to say about this?
01:09:57Ma'am, ma'am, how do you answer the allegation?
01:09:59How long was the divorce half an accusation?
01:10:01Sir, can you please tell her?
01:10:03Mr. Montgomery, you do understand that not forcing your wife to take a maternity test is an admission of guilt, right?
01:10:10Which means you've been lying to everyone.
01:10:14Wait! We're not lying.
01:10:17I took the test. I have the results right here.
01:10:22I have the results right here.
01:10:25Hey! You know how much I'm willing to pay for those?
01:10:30Not enough. Trust me.
01:10:33You took the maternity test? Why?
01:10:37Aston, there's something I need to tell you.
01:10:39Show us the results, sweetheart. Prove your husband's innocence.
01:10:44You took the maternity test? Why?
01:10:46Aston, there's something I need to tell you.
01:10:48Show us the results, sweetheart. Prove your husband's not lying.
01:10:57I don't owe anyone proof. Believe me or don't. But I am Emma's mother.
01:11:02I believe you.
01:11:04Don't even think about it, Dahlia.
01:11:14This is so sweet.
01:11:18If only it mattered.
01:11:21You're too late, Stella.
01:11:23Aston already stepped down.
01:11:33You already stepped down?
01:11:35Yes. To protect you. To protect Emma.
01:11:38Aston, we were fine. All you've ever wanted to do is be safe.
01:11:41To be a great husband to you and a great father to Emma.
01:11:45That's all that matters to me. We can figure out the rest.
01:11:49It looks like you're working for me now, brother.
01:11:53I own the company now.
01:11:55Which means I owe you.
01:11:59Not quite.
01:12:02I just received an offer from Montgomery Enterprises.
01:12:06One that I couldn't refuse.
01:12:10Meet our buyer.
01:12:13Andrew Beaumont.
01:12:20Stella's father.
01:12:27Stella?
01:12:29You look just like your mother.
01:12:34This is ridiculous.
01:12:36You're trying to tell me that Stella's related to a billionaire?
01:12:41She's nothing but a piece of trash.
01:12:44Don't speak about my daughter that way.
01:12:47Your daughter? How dare you call me that?
01:12:50You left Mom and I.
01:12:53No. Stella, I never left you.
01:12:56Your mother, she kicked me out.
01:13:00Because I wasn't the husband or the father that I needed to be.
01:13:05I'm here now.
01:13:07To make it up to you.
01:13:09This company belongs to me.
01:13:11Not this low class peasant bitch.
01:13:14Ow! My baby!
01:13:17Damn, that felt good.
01:13:20Get out of my office or I'll have you arrested for assault.
01:13:24Actually, the office belongs to my daughter now.
01:13:29As does the company.
01:13:32What?
01:13:38I'm the CEO of Montgomery Enterprises?
01:13:47I'm the CEO of Montgomery Enterprises?
01:13:54Oh yes.
01:13:56Which means you get to decide how we get rid of Clive.
01:14:02You're fired. Effective immediately.
01:14:05You! You can't do that!
01:14:08Montgomery Enterprises belongs to her.
01:14:11She can do whatever she wants.
01:14:14You can't do that!
01:14:17You're fired. Effective immediately.
01:14:20You! You can't do that!
01:14:23Montgomery Enterprises belongs to her.
01:14:26She can do whatever she wants.
01:14:30This can't be happening.
01:14:34I planned everything perfectly.
01:14:38That little orphan would have made the perfect scandal
01:14:41if not for Stella interfering.
01:14:45And you!
01:14:47You were supposed to give things to that little bitch
01:14:49that you were pregnant with.
01:14:51You!
01:14:53You!
01:14:56You were supposed to give things to that little bitch
01:14:58that you were pregnant with, Aston's baby.
01:15:00But no!
01:15:02You failed and fucked us all!
01:15:05I didn't! I...
01:15:09Clive, Clarissa, get the hell out of my office!
01:15:12You too, Dahlia. Get out!
01:15:15You can't kick me out. I'm Robert's wife.
01:15:19Not anymore.
01:15:21I want a divorce.
01:15:25What? This is not...
01:15:39I always thought she looked just like you when she was sleeping.
01:15:46I never thought I'd see her again.
01:15:51I never wanted to give her up, but...
01:15:54when Mom got sick and...
01:15:57the medical bills, I just...
01:16:00I knew we couldn't afford it.
01:16:04That's all in the past.
01:16:07But I want to talk about our future.
01:16:13How would you feel about one more?
01:16:21This house is pretty big.
01:16:24Why stop at one?
01:16:27I like the way you think.
01:16:51So...
01:16:53what's your first order of business as CEO?
01:16:57Well, since I've already violated the employee handbook...
01:17:01Twice.
01:17:06I was thinking we could talk business.
01:17:10No one knows more about Montgomery Enterprises than you.
01:17:14I was hoping you might show me the ropes.
01:17:18I'd be happy to.
01:17:24Let's violate the handbook one more time.
01:17:44I'm sorry.
01:17:47I'm sorry.
01:17:50I'm sorry.
01:17:53I'm sorry.
01:17:56I'm sorry.
01:17:59I'm sorry.
01:18:02I'm sorry.
01:18:05I'm sorry.
01:18:08I'm sorry.
01:18:11I'm sorry.
01:18:25I'm pregnant.
01:18:37Hey.
01:18:40Mother and I were just catching up.
01:18:44I still can't believe this.
01:18:48Forgive me for not telling you about your father sooner.
01:18:52When I got sick, I decided to write him.
01:18:56Forgiving him.
01:18:59I never thought you would.
01:19:03And...
01:19:06I hope you can forgive me too.
01:19:18You saved me and my family.
01:19:21Of course I'll forgive you.
01:19:25You know, speaking of family...
01:19:29I'd really like to meet my grandbaby.
01:19:36Which one?
01:19:44Stella!
01:19:50Alston, your assistant called and said it was an emergency.
01:19:54Stella Evans?
01:19:57Yes.
01:20:01Come with me.
01:20:07The last time I heard those words, I got roped into a fake marriage.
01:20:11Well, this time...
01:20:15I'm hoping you'll say yes to a real one.
01:20:30Alston, is that your mother's ring?
01:20:34Alston, is that your mother's ring?
01:20:36It is.
01:20:39And you're the only person who's ever been worthy of it.
01:20:43Stella Evans, ever since you stepped into my office,
01:20:46you have changed the course of my life.
01:20:49You have given me a beautiful child.
01:20:52Children?
01:20:55I'm pregnant.
01:21:00I want forever with you.
01:21:03No deals, no schemes.
01:21:06Just us.
01:21:09Will you marry me?
01:21:19I can't.
01:21:24It's just, we've done this whole thing backwards.
01:21:27I want us to take our time.
01:21:30Okay.
01:21:32I can be patient.
01:21:35But when you're ready for forever, let me know.
01:21:39Because I'm all in, Stella Evans.
01:21:53I'm all in.
