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, we're gonna have it. Sir, sir, sir. 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.
00:09:02What the hell was that? This 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.
00:09:22What will be sorted, brother?
00:09:25Clive.
00:09:27Welcome home.
00:09:29This fiancé and baby certainly came out of nowhere, didn't they?
00:09:32What are you doing here, Clive?
00:09:34I came to meet my niece and soon-to-be sister-in-law, you know, since it all happened so fast.
00:09:42Stella Evans, is it? And what trash barrel did you crawl out of?
00:09:53The trash barrel I crawled out of is none of your business.
00:09:57Oh, contraire, mon chéri. It's most definitely my business. The Montgomerys don't associate with peasants. Bad for business.
00:10:07Leave her alone!
00:10:08Or what?
00:10:10Care to find out?
00:10:14Care to find out?
00:10:18Care to find out?
00:10:22So, 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.
00:11:18Is 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.
00:11:50How did you get the money for a nurse? It's so expensive.
00:11:54I... I got a job. Don't worry about me.
00:12:01I gotta go. I'll see you soon.
00:12:16Holy hot.
00:12:23See something you like?
00:12:28I...
00:12:31Miss Evans? Everything 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 just wanted to be held. You 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.
00:13:30I know. I know. I know.
00:13:37It's okay. It's okay.
00:13:41Okay. Baby steps. Say goodnight to your daughter.
00:13:55Goodnight, Emma.
00:14:07It's the private investigator.
00:14:10The sooner I find out who Emma's mom is, the better.
00:14:30Did the private chef make all this?
00:14:33No. I did.
00:14:38A playboy billionaire who cooks. Maybe I misjudged you.
00:14:43Not such a perk after all, huh?
00:14:46Maybe life with Austin won't be so bad after all.
00:14:53But back to business.
00:14:56My family is coming over for dinner tonight.
00:15:01They want to meet you.
00:15:03You're family. Austin, 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.
00:15:26Mom?
00:15:29Mom? Can you hear me?
00:15:32My mom's in trouble.
00:15:39Danny, what are you doing? I paid you.
00:15:43Well, 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.
00:16:00Well, now that you've come in to some money, you can pay me more.
00:16:04Two years' rent should do it, I thought.
00:16:07She'll pay you what she owes you and not a cent more.
00:16:15This is 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.
00:16:32You really think you're good enough for him?
00:16:35I only fucked you because I felt sorry for you and you're done.
00:16:46Stella is more than good enough for me. If you touch her again, I will kill you.
00:16:52Stella?
00:16:58Those are for my fiancé. And this one's for me.
00:17:06Stella? Mom! Mom!
00:17:11Hey, hey.
00:17:14Stella, he took my medicine.
00:17:18I have it right here, Mrs. Evans.
00:17:22That man will never bother you again. I will make sure of it.
00:17:29And I'm sending someone for your things. They're coming to live with us.
00:17:41Thank 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? I 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.
00:19:50There's one thing missing.
00:19:58A ring.
00:20:04May I?
00:20:08Yes.
00:20:12It's beautiful, but it's too much.
00:20:16It's only for appearances, nothing more.
00:20:20Please wear it.
00:20:32Shall we?
00:20:38Okay.
00:20:52You ready to sell this?
00:21:00Asked in a word.
00:21:04It'll take a moment.
00:21:08Go.
00:21:10I'll be fine.
00:21:26Stella!
00:21:28How 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. I'm sure Stella's trying her best.
00:21:50Oh, I didn't know Aston had a sister.
00:21:56No, I'm Clarissa.
00:22:00Aston's ex-fiance.
00:22:10Oh God, is she pregnant with Aston's baby?
00:22:16No wonder Aston didn't introduce you earlier. You're nothing like me.
00:22:20And thank God for that.
00:22:22Stella 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. Where even is my step-grandbaby?
00:22:34You see, Robert, he's as negligent a father as he would be a CEO.
00:22:40She's with the nanny, to keep her from the judgment of people like you.
00:22:44All that matters is our judgment, and bringing in this peasant certainly doesn't help your case.
00:22:50Excuse me? Who are you calling peasant?
00:22:54Being 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 fiancé.
00:23:08You'll never be good enough to be CEO.
00:23:21Aston is the only person who should run Montgomery Enterprises.
00:23:25Anyone else's CEO would be a mistake.
00:23:28Especially your son.
00:23:38You have upset my fiancé and I won't stand for that.
00:23:41Dinner is cancelled! Get out of my house!
00:23:47Now.
00:24:05I'm sorry if I was out of line.
00:24:07No. Thank you for defending me.
00:24:11You didn't have to do that.
00:24:15Of course I did.
00:24:19I'm your fiancé.
00:24:25I never should have brought you into this.
00:24:29It's not fair to you.
00:24:33I'll pay you what I owe you, just...
00:24:37Take the money and go, Stella.
00:24:39What's going to happen to you and Emma?
00:24:41I do worry about you.
00:24:45I care about you both.
00:24:47I'm sorry, Stella, but...
00:24:49This contract between us is over.
00:24:55What contract?
00:25:02What contract?
00:25:07I told you what would happen if I caught you lying.
00:25:11We're not lying.
00:25:13Prove it.
00:25:19We were just talking about the contract for our wedding venue.
00:25:23So excited to get planning.
00:25:29I see.
00:25:37You've saved me twice in the last 20 minutes.
00:25:45You're not what I expected.
00:25:48What did you expect?
00:25:51I don't know.
00:25:54Not you.
00:25:58Why are you looking at me like you want to kiss me?
00:26:02Why are you looking at me like you want to kiss me?
00:26:05Because I do want to kiss you.
00:26:13Because I do want to kiss you.
00:26:16That's all I've thought about since you put on that red dress.
00:26:26We probably shouldn't complicate this whole fake relationship thing.
00:26:31Especially since we're not actually getting married.
00:26:36You're right.
00:26:38We'll break off this engagement as soon as possible and we'll both get everything we want.
00:27:02I have some good news.
00:27:04You're getting married.
00:27:06Tomorrow.
00:27:14Congratulations.
00:27:16By this time tomorrow, you'll officially be husband and wife.
00:27:20Tomorrow?
00:27:22Unless there's some sort of problem with getting married tomorrow.
00:27:26It's just...
00:27:28We're not in a rush.
00:27:30But the board is.
00:27:32A child out of wedlock is a scandal.
00:27:36And one that must be remedied immediately.
00:27:41I hope that won't be a problem.
00:27:52Married?
00:27:53That wasn't part of the deal.
00:27:55I know.
00:27:58But would it be so bad being married to me?
00:28:07Yes!
00:28:08Do 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.
00:28:22Take some time to think about it.
00:28:26But I need an answer tonight.
00:28:38Mom.
00:28:40How did you know when you were ready to get married?
00:28:44I don't think anybody ever is ready.
00:28:48Truly.
00:28:50Your father and I certainly weren't.
00:28:52You weren't?
00:28:54No.
00:28:55We were young.
00:28:57Too young, even.
00:29:01But your father made me feel a way I'd never felt before.
00:29:05He made me feel loved.
00:29:07Valued.
00:29:10Whole.
00:29:25But...
00:29:27It didn't even work out.
00:29:29It ended before I was born.
00:29:33Just because something doesn't last
00:29:36doesn't mean you can't enjoy it while you have it.
00:29:44Plus, your father gave me you.
00:29:49Which is more than enough.
00:29:52I 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 when it's all over.
00:30:12She just went down.
00:30:17Look, I know this isn't what you wanted.
00:30:19And...
00:30:21You deserve to marry someone who truly cares about you.
00:30:24So...
00:30:28If you want to walk away now, I...
00:30:30I won't blame you.
00:30:33So...
00:30:35Do you have an answer for me?
00:30:41So...
00:30:43Do you have an answer for me?
00:30:45I do.
00:30:48Aston, look at me.
00:30:55I never thought I would get married as part of a contract, but...
00:30:58I said I'd help you.
00:31:00And I'll keep my word.
00:31:06It means a lot to me.
00:31:12I have to say I'm surprised Aston is going through with this.
00:31:15I definitely thought that he would have dumped you by now.
00:31:18He probably will once he sees her in that rag.
00:31:22It was my mother's wedding dress.
00:31:24Of course it was.
00:31:26Only a poor person would wear something like that.
00:31:28I'm surprised your Prince Charming didn't buy you something better.
00:31:31He clearly doesn't care about you.
00:31:40Aston cares about me.
00:31:42And I don't need a dress to prove it.
00:31:44Are you sure...
00:31:46If he really loved you...
00:31:48He would have given you his mother's ring?
00:31:54Are you sure...
00:31:56If he really loved you...
00:31:58He would have given you his mother's ring?
00:32:10Is that what he gave you, Clarissa?
00:32:13No, but that's only because I wanted something bigger.
00:32:21From Mr. Montgomery.
00:32:23For his fiancée.
00:32:25Oh my god!
00:32:27It's gorgeous!
00:32:29That's the late Mrs. Montgomery's necklace.
00:32:33That's supposed to be mine!
00:32:35I 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.
00:33:06I do.
00:33:09If only this were real.
00:33:25I know that you and Aston are lying about your relationship.
00:33:30So, if you know what's best, you won't go through with this wedding.
00:33:35Aston isn't who you think he is.
00:33:38Whatever money you think you might be getting...
00:33:41Whatever feelings you think he may have...
00:33:45It's all just one big lie.
00:33:47Your vision of the future is not the reality.
00:34:09Thank you for the advice.
00:34:12But I don't need it.
00:34:14I can handle myself.
00:34:16And nothing you say can scare me.
00:34:22Say no to Aston in front of everyone.
00:34:25Or I'll make sure you regret it.
00:34:28Your choice, Stella Evans.
00:34:30Don't make the wrong one.
00:34:39I love you.
00:34:58You look beautiful.
00:35:01Hey.
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...
00:35:14...to join this man and woman in holy marriage.
00:35:17Marriage is powerful...
00:35:19You take Aston to be your lawfully wedded husband?
00:35:31I'm sorry, I can't marry you.
00:35:36I'm sorry, I can't marry you.
00:35:51What the hell was that about?
00:35:54This is all fake, Aston!
00:35:56Every word you're telling me...
00:35:58Every look you're giving me...
00:35:59Is it all just some charade?
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.
00:36:31Hey.
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...
00:36:50My mother left it to me before she died.
00:36:52She said...
00:36:54That I should only give it to someone I care about.
00:36:58Someone I saw a future with.
00:37:02Yeah.
00:37:17I'm falling for you still, Evans.
00:37:20I have been since the moment we met.
00:37:32I don't know how I feel right now.
00:37:35Today's just been a lot and...
00:37:38My mind is all over the place.
00:37:41You're right.
00:37:42This wedding's way too much, too soon.
00:37:46Stay here and...
00:37:48I'll tell everybody the wedding is off.
00:38:02Excellent.
00:38:03A runaway bride is an even bigger scandal than a love child.
00:38:15This must be a record, brother.
00:38:17Two fiancées down.
00:38:19At least this one made it to the altar.
00:38:23Hi, everyone.
00:38:24Sorry to keep you waiting, but...
00:38:26There won't be...
00:38:27Any more interruptions.
00:38:31Who's ready for a wedding?
00:38:56Okay, let's try this again.
00:38:59Dearly beloved...
00:39:01We are gathered here today to join this man and this woman in holy matrimony.
00:39:06Marriage is powerful in ways you'd never expect.
00:39:10It's something that makes you feel lucky to be alive...
00:39:12Exactly when and where you are.
00:39:15It's choosing your partner at every moment of every day...
00:39:19And of learning how to love even the darkest parts of another person.
00:39:24A true partner stays with you through 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?
00:40:07I 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.
00:40:37This is bullshit!
00:40:39CEO should be mine!
00:40:43This is your fault, you little bitch.
00:40:45Guys, what's wrong?
00:40:47I hope that hurt.
00:40:49Oh my god.
00:40:50Not as much as this girl.
00:40:51You're my baby!
00:40:54Not as much as this girl.
00:40:56You're my baby!
00:41:00What the hell?
00:41:01You ruined my suit!
00:41:02If you touch my wife again, I will end you.
00:41:05Now get the hell out of my wedding.
00:41:13Baby!
00:41:15You're just gonna 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.
00:41:32Whoa.
00:41:34Are you okay?
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?
00:41:55I have wanted you...
00:41:57since the moment we met.
00:42:00Mrs. Montgomery.
00:42:18Are you going?
00:42:20No.
00:42:22Are you going?
00:42:27If I don't leave now,
00:42:30I won't be able to stop myself
00:42:32from tearing you out of that dress.
00:42:37Is that why I wanted you to stop?
00:42:47Since the moment I met you,
00:42:49you have consumed my everything.
00:42:52I can't eat.
00:42:54I can't sleep.
00:42:55I can't work without thinking about you.
00:42:59Without imagining us.
00:43:04Do you want me?
00:43:07More than anything.
00:43:19No.
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,
00:44:00and the next thing she...
00:44:03Thank God.
00:44:05Hey.
00:44:07Hey, it's okay.
00:44:08She's okay now, see?
00:44:10Hey.
00:44:11It's okay.
00:44:20That's the most terrified I've ever been in my life.
00:44:24That's because she's your baby girl,
00:44:25and 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.
00:44:57It's the private investigator.
00:44:59He might have information on who Emma's mom is.
00:45:01I can't.
00:45:17Mom.
00:45:19I wanted to let you know that I went through with the wedding.
00:45:22And I brought you a picture.
00:45:27I even wore your dress.
00:45:29Stella.
00:45:31Oh, you're so beautiful.
00:45:36I'm so glad you found someone to take care of you after I'm gone.
00:45:43What are you talking about?
00:45:51What's this?
00:45:53A clinical trial?
00:45:55But it cost ten million dollars?
00:45:57Something like that could save my mom.
00:45:59But how am I ever going to get that much money?
00:46:09There you are.
00:46:12Everything okay?
00:46:14Yep.
00:46:16What are you doing?
00:46:21I have to take a paternity test.
00:46:29I guess we'll know soon if I'm Emma's father.
00:46:33If?
00:46:35Well, they got the footage from the office the day Emma was dropped off.
00:46:39But the woman who was there...
00:46:42I don't recognize her.
00:46:46So you just forgot someone you slept with?
00:46:50That wasn't part of the test.
00:46:53It was.
00:46:55It was.
00:46:57That wasn't a good time in my life.
00:47:01And I made a lot of bad decisions.
00:47:05But I've changed.
00:47:07You've changed me.
00:47:10Which is why I need you to come with me to the board meeting today.
00:47:15You keep me grounded.
00:47:21Of course I'll go with 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.
00:47:54You're lying.
00:47:56They're both lying to all of you.
00:48:01Stella Evans.
00:48:04Ten o'clock interview with Aston Montgomery for the executive assistant position.
00:48:11Looks like he offered a different job to her altogether.
00:48:15This man would go so far as to marry a complete stranger in order to become your CEO.
00:48:21I don't know how much he's paying you, but it must be a lot.
00:48:25If this is true, son, you're an embarrassment to this family and this company.
00:48:32The board can't proceed with a vote.
00:48:38It's true.
00:48:40Stella was there to interview that day.
00:48:42Me.
00:48:44To see if I was up for the challenge to raising our daughter.
00:48:47But this isn't about my personal life.
00:48:49This is about what's best for Montgomery Enterprises going into the future.
00:48:53And since I've become COO, I have more than doubled our profits.
00:48:57And if that's not enough for you, then I don't know what is.
00:49:03It doesn't matter what you say.
00:49:05Mom already promised me the position of CEO would be mine.
00:49:09Enough.
00:49:12We will vote now.
00:49:14We will vote now.
00:49:17Is there a vote for Clive?
00:49:22And for Aston?
00:49:32It's a tie.
00:49:34So it all comes down to my father.
00:49:38And I have decided.
00:49:44The new CEO of Montgomery Enterprises is...
00:49:53The new CEO of Montgomery Enterprises is...
00:50:00Aston Montgomery.
00:50:05What about me?
00:50:07I've looked at the financials.
00:50:09You've spent more time at the country club than in the boardroom.
00:50:13It's not my fault their cob salads are excellent.
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.
00:50:44So what's your first act as CEO?
00:50:48I violate every page of the HR handbook.
00:50:51It's a good thing you never gave me that job.
00:50:59I need you.
00:51:04We can't. Somebody could walk in.
00:51:07So?
00:51:09I need you.
00:51:10We can't. Somebody could walk in.
00:51:12So?
00:51:14So what? Remember what your dad said? We can't afford another scandal.
00:51:22Aston.
00:51:24The board would like to see you.
00:51:26To go over some financials.
00:51:28Of course.
00:51:41Knock knock.
00:51:45Clarissa if you're here to bully me I am not in the mood.
00:51:48That's not why I'm here.
00:51:50I'm here as a courtesy.
00:51:52You deserve the truth and clearly Aston isn't going to give it to you.
00:51:59This baby isn't Clive's.
00:52:02It's Aston's.
00:52:11What the hell are you talking about? That baby cannot be Aston's.
00:52:15Well 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 and Aston got what he wanted.
00:52:24We don't need you anymore.
00:52:27He doesn't need you anymore.
00:52:41I don't believe you.
00:52:43Believe Aston then.
00:52:45Go ahead.
00:52:47Open that desk drawer.
00:52:59Oh my god.
00:53:01He signed the divorce papers.
00:53:03Clarissa is telling the truth.
00:53:11You can go now.
00:53:25Sweet Emma.
00:53:28I'm going to miss you so much.
00:53:31What's going on?
00:53:33I'm saying goodbye to Emma.
00:53:35And then I'm out of here.
00:53:37Just like you want me to be.
00:53:39Okay.
00:53:42Stella why are you packing?
00:53:44Here. I signed them.
00:53:46You don't have to worry about me anymore.
00:53:48What are you talking about?
00:53:50Come on Aston.
00:53:52You used me to get everything you wanted.
00:53:54I was a fool to think we could ever be together.
00:53:56That we could ever have a family together.
00:53:58Oh and by the way.
00:54:00Congratulations on the baby.
00:54:02I hope you and Clarissa are really happy together.
00:54:05Wait.
00:54:06Wait.
00:54:13Wait.
00:54:18Please.
00:54:20Let 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.
00:54:40I have these drawn up the day I met you before.
00:54:42I knew this could be anything more than a contract.
00:54:44And this. Just. Just.
00:54:46Just take it.
00:54:48Please just take everything out.
00:54:50All I want is you and Emma.
00:54:52I could take or leave anything else.
00:54:54You don't mean that.
00:54:56Of course I mean it.
00:54:58I have meant every word I have said to you.
00:55:01I'm in Stella. I'm all in.
00:55:04Are you?
00:55:07Yeah.
00:55:09I'm all in.
00:55:12Yes.
00:55:21I'm in.
00:55:23I'm in.
00:55:25I'm in.
00:55:27I'm in.
00:55:29I'm in.
00:55:31I'm in.
00:55:33I'm in.
00:55:35The paternity results are in.
00:55:39I'm not Emma's father.
00:55:50The paternity results are in.
00:55:54I'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?
00:56:35I can't tell you why this is happening, Aston.
00:56:38But Emma's lucky to have you as a dad.
00:56:42Biological or not.
00:56:45We need to find the truth.
00:56:52Dahlia's behind it all.
00:56:59I'm not telling you anything.
00:57:01This isn't about you.
00:57:02I'm not telling you anything.
00:57:04This isn't a game, Dahlia.
00:57:06She's a child. Where did Emma come from?
00:57:08Step down as CEO and I'll tell you.
00:57:15Step 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 tramp.
00:57:28If you hadn't come along pretending to be her mother
00:57:30the 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.
00:57:43The baby's trash, just like you.
00:58:00My hair!
00:58:07Ask him to come here.
00:58:09You 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.
00:58:29Call every orphanage in the city
00:58:31until you find one that's missing a baby.
00:58:42It's okay.
00:58:44It's okay, we're gonna 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.
00:58:54I don't want to be, but
00:58:57until we figure out what's going on
00:58:59I can't get attached.
00:59:08Mr. Montgomery! Mr. Montgomery!
00:59:10Mr. Montgomery!
00:59:12What can you say about the recent allegations
00:59:14that Ms. Evans is not the mother of your son's child?
00:59:18Mr. Montgomery!
00:59:20You can't ignore us, Mr. Montgomery!
00:59:22You 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.
00:59:34No more scandals!
00:59:36What are you talking about?
00:59:38I went out on a limb for you, son.
00:59:40I trusted you.
00:59:42And this has been a lie the whole time?
00:59:45You say she's the mother of your child?
00:59:47Prove it.
00:59:48I'll expect you to step down as CEO tomorrow morning.
00:59:53How do we prove it?
00:59:56Simple.
00:59:58Take a maternity test.
01:00:05How do we prove it?
01:00:08Simple.
01:00:10Take a maternity test.
01:00:19Mr. Montgomery!
01:00:21We're not going away, Mr. Montgomery!
01:00:23Come on, now!
01:00:25Whoa, whoa, whoa.
01:00:27I got you.
01:00:29Aston.
01:00:31If I take a maternity test,
01:00:33they're going to know that Emma's not mine
01:00:35and then we may lose her.
01:00:37Forever.
01:00:38No.
01:00:45We should have never lied in the first place.
01:00:49Mom!
01:00:51Mom!
01:00:55My mom is dying!
01:01:02Your head is so warm.
01:01:05It's okay.
01:01:18My heart was racing.
01:01:20I was so scared.
01:01:23It's okay.
01:01:27It's okay.
01:01:29It's all going to be okay.
01:01:42Hey.
01:01:44My mom's getting worse.
01:01:48She needs this experimental treatment,
01:01:51but we can't afford it, so...
01:01:54Why didn't you tell me?
01:01:58I didn't want to be a burden to you.
01:02:00You can never be a burden.
01:02:03How much does the treatment cost?
01:02:10Ten million dollars.
01:02:13I'll pay it.
01:02:14Every penny.
01:02:18Aston, I...
01:02:19Like I said,
01:02:21money doesn't matter.
01:02:22I would do anything for you,
01:02:23anything for our family.
01:02:33You have no idea what this means to me.
01:02:43I'm sorry.
01:02:45I'm so sorry.
01:02:47It's okay.
01:02:52How do you always know just what to say
01:02:54to make me feel better?
01:02:56Because I know you.
01:02:58I know what you want.
01:02:59I know what you need.
01:03:01That's what happens to someone when you...
01:03:06When you...
01:03:08When you what?
01:03:11When you love someone.
01:03:14And I love you.
01:03:15Stella Evans.
01:03:22And I love you.
01:03:24Stella Evans.
01:03:32You love me?
01:03:36I do.
01:03:39I can't believe it's taking me so long to see you.
01:03:46Please tell me you feel the same.
01:03:56I don't know what I'm feeling.
01:03:59It's all just...
01:04:00It's too much.
01:04:04I understand.
01:04:06Hi, I'd like to pay a bill for Mary Evans.
01:04:10It has?
01:04:13By who?
01:04:17I see.
01:04:36A year ago,
01:04:38I gave up my baby girl.
01:04:42I had no choice and it broke my heart.
01:04:45The chances are almost impossible, but
01:04:48I have to know.
01:04:50Could Emma be my daughter?
01:04:58I'm sorry.
01:05:00I'm sorry.
01:05:02I'm sorry.
01:05:04I'm sorry.
01:05:12Hello?
01:05:14I'd like to schedule a maternity test.
01:05:26Hey, Stella, do you...
01:05:30Everything okay?
01:05:31Fine.
01:05:33Wow.
01:05:37You seem...
01:05:38off.
01:05:51I'm just stressed.
01:05:56I just can't stop thinking about Emma's mother
01:05:58and how our lives could come
01:06:00crashing down over some maternity test.
01:06:02Then don't take it.
01:06:04What?
01:06:06No, I can't ask you to do that.
01:06:07That's not fair to you.
01:06:11Don't worry about what's fair to me.
01:06:12It's all I'm worried about.
01:06:15You mean more to me than this CEO position.
01:06:19He's trying to help, but
01:06:21if Emma's somehow mine,
01:06:22I can save Aston's job
01:06:24and his reputation.
01:06:26Just
01:06:28don't do anything rash, okay?
01:06:29We still have until tomorrow
01:06:30to figure it out.
01:06:35I need to ask.
01:06:38Does the name Andrew Beaumont
01:06:39mean anything to you?
01:06:42No.
01:06:44Should it?
01:06:46Well,
01:06:48he paid for your mother's treatment.
01:06:50All
01:06:51ten million of it.
01:07:00Mom?
01:07:02Who's Andrew Beaumont?
01:07:07How
01:07:09do you know about him?
01:07:12He paid for your treatment.
01:07:14Who is he?
01:07:19Mom?
01:07:21Mom?
01:07:23Mom!
01:07:25Mom!
01:07:27Mom!
01:07:29Mom!
01:07:30Someone call a doctor!
01:07:32Mom!
01:07:49I spoke with the doctors.
01:07:54She's been put in a medically induced coma
01:07:55until the swelling in her brain subsides.
01:08:00It's all my fault
01:08:01if I wouldn't have pushed her.
01:08:02No, Estella.
01:08:03It is not your fault.
01:08:14I know.
01:08:15I know.
01:08:16And I know she's sick.
01:08:17I just wish there was something
01:08:18I could do.
01:08:19She's with the doctors now.
01:08:21She's getting the treatment
01:08:22she needs.
01:08:24It'll all be fine.
01:08:27No matter how much
01:08:28you keep blaming yourself,
01:08:30I'll say it again.
01:08:33It's not your fault.
01:08:58It's not your fault.
01:09:04Okay, Emma.
01:09:06Time to learn the truth.
01:09:15In breaking news,
01:09:16CEO Aston Montgomery
01:09:17has called a last-minute press conference
01:09:19to address the future
01:09:20of Montgomery Enterprises.
01:09:22Reporters have it on good authority
01:09:24that he is prepared to step down as CEO,
01:09:26handing the company over
01:09:27to his half-brother,
01:09:28Clive Montgomery,
01:09:29in the wake of a paternity scandal.
01:09:49Oh my God!
01:09:52I can save him!
01:09:57Do you have anything to say about this?
01:09:58Ma'am, how do you answer
01:09:59the allegations?
01:10:00How long was the divorce
01:10:01half an accusation?
01:10:02Sir, can you please
01:10:03follow her?
01:10:04Mr. Montgomery,
01:10:05you do understand
01:10:06that not forcing your wife
01:10:07to take a maternity test
01:10:08is an admission of guilt, right?
01:10:11Which means you've been lying
01:10:13to everyone.
01:10:15Wait!
01:10:16We're not lying.
01:10:18I took the test.
01:10:19I have the results right here.
01:10:22Hey!
01:10:23You know how much
01:10:24I'm willing to pay for those?
01:10:25Not enough.
01:10:26Trust me.
01:10:30Come on, ma'am.
01:10:31What are you talking about?
01:10:32Can you give us a quote?
01:10:33How long has this happened?
01:10:35You took the maternity test?
01:10:36Why?
01:10:37Aston, there's something
01:10:38I need to tell you.
01:10:39Show us the results, sweetheart.
01:10:40Prove your husband's not lying.
01:10:42I'm not lying.
01:10:43I'm not lying.
01:10:44I'm not lying.
01:10:45I'm not lying.
01:10:46I'm not lying.
01:10:47I'm not lying.
01:10:48I'm not lying.
01:10:49I'm not lying.
01:10:50Prove your husband's not lying.
01:10:57I don't owe anyone proof.
01:10:59Believe me or don't.
01:11:00But I am Emma's mother.
01:11:03I 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.
01:11:36To protect you.
01:11:37To protect Emma.
01:11:38Aston, we were fine.
01:11:39All you've ever wanted to do is be...
01:11:41To be a great husband to you
01:11:43and a great father to Emma.
01:11:45That's all that matters to me.
01:11:47We can figure out the rest.
01:11:49It looks like
01:11:51you're working for me now, brother.
01:11:53I own the company now.
01:11:55Which means
01:11:56I
01:11:57own you.
01:11:59Not quite.
01:12:03I just received an offer from Montgomery Enterprises.
01:12:06One that I couldn't refuse.
01:12:10Meet our buyer.
01:12:12Andrew Beaumont.
01:12:19Stella's father.
01:12:26Stella.
01:12:28You look just like your mother.
01:12:33This is ridiculous.
01:12:35You're trying to tell me
01:12:37that Stella's related to a billionaire?
01:12:40She's nothing but a piece of trash.
01:12:43Don't
01:12:44speak about my daughter that way.
01:12:46Your daughter?
01:12:48How dare you call me that?
01:12:50You left Mom and I.
01:12:52No.
01:12:54Stella, I never left you.
01:12:56Your mother...
01:12:58She kicked me out.
01:13:00Because I wasn't the husband
01:13:02or the father that I needed to be, but...
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!
01:13:15My baby!
01:13:17Damn, that felt good.
01:13:20Get out of my office
01:13:21or I'll have you arrested for assault.
01:13:24Actually,
01:13:25the office belongs to my daughter now.
01:13:29As does the company.
01:13:32What?
01:13:37I'm
01:13:38the CEO of Montgomery Enterprises?
01:13:41I'm
01:13:42the CEO of Montgomery Enterprises?
01:13:48Oh, yes.
01:13:50Which means you get to decide
01:13:51how we get rid of Clive.
01:14:11You're fired.
01:14:13Effective immediately.
01:14:14You...
01:14:15You can't do that!
01:14:17Montgomery Enterprises belongs to her.
01:14:19She can do whatever she wants.
01:14:26Ow!
01:14:28This...
01:14:29This is...
01:14:30This is...
01:14:31This is...
01:14:32This is...
01:14:33This is...
01:14:34This is...
01:14:35This is...
01:14:36This is...
01:14:37This is...
01:14:38This is...
01:14:39This...
01:14:40This...
01:14:41This... can't be happening.
01:14:43I planned everything perfectly.
01:14:47That little orphan would've made the perfect scandal
01:14:49if not for Stella interfering.
01:14:53And you!
01:14:55You were supposed to give things to that little bitch
01:14:57that you were pregnant with Aston's baby.
01:15:00But no!
01:15:01You failed
01:15:03and fucked us all!
01:15:05I didn't!
01:15:06I didn't!
01:15:07Clive, Clarissa, get the hell out of my office!
01:15:12You too, Dahlia!
01:15:13Get out!
01:15:14You can't kick me out.
01:15:16I'm Robert's wife.
01:15:19Not anymore.
01:15:21I want a divorce.
01:15:22What?
01:15:23This is not...
01:15:24Do you have any sleep?
01:15:25I'm sorry.
01:15:26I'm sorry.
01:15:27I'm sorry.
01:15:28I 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 when Mom got sick and the medical bills, I just...
01:16:00I knew we couldn't afford it.
01:16:04That's all in the past, but I want to talk about our future.
01:16:13How would you feel about one more?
01:16:23This house is pretty big.
01:16:25Why stop at one?
01:16:28I like the way you think.
01:16:41So, what's your first order of business as CEO?
01:16:59Well, since I've already violated the employee handbook...
01:17:03Twice.
01:17:08I was thinking we could talk business.
01:17:12No one knows more about Montgomery Enterprises than you.
01:17:21I was hoping you might show me the ropes.
01:17:25I'd be happy to.
01:17:31I'm smiling at the handbook one more time.
01:18:01I'm pregnant.
01:18:27I'm pregnant.
01:18:36Hey.
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.
01:18:55Forgiving him.
01:18:59I never thought you would.
01:19:03And, um...
01:19:06I hope you can forgive me too.
01:19:18You saved me and my family.
01:19:20Of course I'll forgive you.
01:19:26You know, speaking of family...
01:19:29I'd really like to meet my grandbaby.
01:19:36Which one?
01:19:44Stella!
01:19:49Allison, your assistant called and said it was an emergency.
01:19:54Stella Evans?
01:19:57Yes.
01:20:02Come with me.
01:20:12The last time I heard those words, I got roped into a fake marriage.
01:20:17Well, this time, I'm hoping you'll say yes to a real one.
01:20:34Allison, is that your mother's ring?
01:20:36It is.
01:20:38And you're the only person who has ever been worthy of it.
01:20:44Stella Evans, ever since you stepped into my office, you have changed the course of my life.
01:20:49You have given me a beautiful child.
01:20:52Children?
01:20:55I'm pregnant.
01:21:01I want forever with you.
01:21:03No deals, no schemes.
01:21:06Just us.
01:21:09Will you marry me?
01:21:20I can't.
01:21:28It's just, we've done this whole thing backwards.
01:21:31I want us to take our time.
01:21:34Okay.
01:21:36I'm impatient.
01:21:39But when you're ready for forever, let me know.
01:21:43Because I'm all in, Stella Evans.
