00:00Jenny, wait! Jenny!
00:04Jenny, Jenny, Jenny, please!
00:05Don't throw away all the wonderful years we spent together.
00:08We can make this work!
00:09No!
00:10Whoa, whoa, whoa!
00:11Who the hell are you?
00:13I'm her husband.
00:14And who the hell are you?
00:16I'm the one who's been keeping your ex-wife's...
00:21Hi, actually.
00:23I was working overtime.
00:24I was taking multiple jobs.
00:26I took out several loans.
00:27All for you!
00:30You wanted designer bags.
00:31You wanted a brand new car.
00:32You wanted a big fancy house.
00:34You wanted, well, everything!
00:36And I was giving it to you,
00:37all the while you were s***ing with some other guy?
00:39I think somebody needs to be taught some manners.
00:41Yeah?
00:43I'll end you!
00:44I wouldn't recommend doing that,
00:45unless you want to add to the legal case
00:47you're an aggressive, unstable psychopath
00:49who attacks innocent people.
00:52I can't believe that I've been living
00:53with such a monster all this time.
00:55Surprise, surprise.
00:56I thought you loved me, Jenny.
00:58Why do you need to take our son away from me?
01:00You don't even consider him to be our son!
01:03Just let me take care of him.
01:05I love him!
01:06And give up my alimony?
01:07No, sir!
01:08I'm going to squeeze every penny out of you.
01:11Do you know how hard it is
01:12to be a single mom raising a child
01:14in this big, expensive world?
01:17You ruined this marriage,
01:18and now I will ruin your entire life.
01:24You can't do this!
01:25You can't do this!
01:28Bye, loser.
01:31Andrew cursed the day they did the DNA test.
01:34They were both surprised by the blood results
01:36of his so-called son.
01:38But he loved him immensely.
01:40He couldn't help wondering
01:41where his actual son really was.
01:48Shortly after Andrew's wife ran out on him,
01:50his life fell apart.
01:53Jenny took everything from him.
01:55The car, the house, all the money.
02:00Even his job was at risk due to all the lawsuits.
02:05Broke and desperate,
02:06Andrew was hanging on to life by a thread.
02:19Oh, my God.
02:21I am terribly sorry.
02:23My driver wasn't paying attention.
02:26Are you okay?
02:31I'll pay for whatever damages I've caused you.
02:38Money is not an issue.
02:40Thank you, but I think I'm okay.
02:45You must have different perceptions of life, okay?
02:50I'm sorry.
02:53Although dizzy, he was completely smitten.
02:57She was wearing a strange ring
02:59and Andrew felt uncomfortable in its presence.
03:10So, what's your name?
03:12What's your name?
03:14Andrew. Andrew Johnson.
03:18All right, Andrew Johnson.
03:25I want you to have this.
03:35I know the best doctors in the city.
03:39So, just give me a call
03:40and I could have them check you as soon as you need.
03:46This can be a lifeline.
03:50So, don't hesitate to call me.
03:55Shit.
03:57I'm very late for a meeting. Sorry.
04:02Call me, Andrew.
04:07The Browns were one of the richest families in the city
04:09and Carolyn was the sole heir of their vast fortune.
04:13Although only 27 years old,
04:15she was the CEO of Brown Enterprises
04:17and one of the most eligible bachelorettes in the city.
04:27I own half of this apartment,
04:29but I've already filed a lawsuit to obtain your half as well.
04:33You have one week to vacate. Good luck.
04:37How could you?
04:39Andrew's world was falling further apart.
04:45We've received information regarding an ongoing lawsuit.
04:48The reputation of our employees is critically important to us.
04:51You are terminated. Effective immediately.
04:55He was already burdened with a pile of debts,
04:57the loss of his son and his marriage.
05:00Now, he was unemployed.
05:02Soon, his house would be taken from him.
05:04I have nothing left to lose.
05:06She took everything from me.
05:18Andrew didn't know what to do.
05:20He didn't have relatives or friends who could help him.
05:23The only thing to do was to call Carolyn.
05:35I must confess.
05:37I was waiting for your call.
05:40What is it, Andrew?
05:42Do you need a check-up?
05:44No, Ms. Brown. I'm fine physically.
05:48But I must say,
05:50I'm in serious financial trouble.
05:53I have no job,
05:55no money,
05:57and I'm nearing homelessness.
06:00I see.
06:02I was wondering if maybe you could help me?
06:06Help you with your debt?
06:11Is that what you're asking?
06:13If yes, then...
06:15you know that I can clear it all
06:18in one phone call.
06:22That won't be necessary.
06:24I'm a...
06:26I'm a...
06:28I'm sorry, I'm a...
06:30I'm only asking for a job,
06:32maybe at your company?
06:39Ms. Brown?
06:40Consider it's done.
06:42Really?
06:43Wow.
06:45You have no idea how much this means to me.
06:47Thank you so much.
06:48But I do have a favor to ask.
06:51All I want is for you to...
06:55Is for me to...
06:58I want you to marry me.
07:00What?
07:02With all due respect, Ms. Brown,
07:04this isn't just a simple request.
07:06Sure it is.
07:09I'm going to send my driver over to pick you up.
07:12I'm waiting for you in my office,
07:15and we'll discuss all the details.
07:22Andrew couldn't believe what he had heard.
07:24Who was this woman,
07:26and why would she want to marry a man she had just met?
07:32Ms. Brown?
07:36Do you think my hair is my most interesting asset, Andrew?
07:43Call me Carolyn.
07:49You're not a client.
07:52My apologies.
07:54I didn't mean to...
07:56It's okay to look, Andrew.
07:57I took pride in my appearance.
07:59Please take a seat.
08:08Relax.
08:10Now we can discuss all the details.
08:14Firstly, I'm going to transfer one and a half million dollars to your bank account.
08:19Please tell me if you need more.
08:22Carolyn, absolutely not.
08:24That's a lot of money.
08:26It's life-changing, even.
08:28All I needed was help with a few debts,
08:30and I'm willing to work for it.
08:32Is there a problem with me
08:35to give my fiancé
08:37a mere 1.5 million dollars?
08:43It is hardly an inconvenience for me.
08:46Carolyn, no.
08:47I would not be comfortable with you...
08:49What if you consider it a dowry?
08:54If it would make you more comfortable.
08:57Look,
08:59I genuinely don't understand what's happening here,
09:02but just to be clear,
09:03I'm not going to sue you for the collision or anything, okay?
09:07I know.
09:08That's why I like you.
09:10But do you like me this much?
09:13Carolyn, isn't marrying me kind of...
09:17Out of the blue?
09:25Out of the blue?
09:28Do I look like someone who does things without thinking?
09:32Do I seem impulsive to you?
09:35I mean, who am I to you anyway?
09:38So you are suggesting I'm unfit for you?
09:43Now I'm insulted?
09:45Of course not.
09:46It's just that it's so sudden and hard to believe.
09:50It feels like there's a catch.
09:53So I'm a liar now?
09:56Miss Brown...
09:58Carolyn,
09:59look, we're strangers to each other, okay?
10:02I'm just an unemployed man
10:04who has nothing to offer to someone as important as you.
10:07How can you trust me?
10:10You know what?
10:15You're right.
10:18Leave.
10:24Leave?
10:27Yes.
10:29If it's not the life you want,
10:32then leave.
10:34Alright.
10:39What were Carolyn's true intentions?
10:42How all of a sudden did she want to marry Andrew?
10:48Carolyn, I'm sorry.
10:50Truly, it's nothing against you.
10:53And clearly you're a catch.
10:56Maybe in another life?
11:05Andrew didn't know yet that he had fallen into a trap from which he couldn't escape.
11:09What's going on?
11:15Because no one had ever refused Carolyn.
11:18Wow.
11:23You are different, Andrew.
11:28And I like it about you.
11:32Who am I to you?
11:36Yeah.
11:39The heart wants what it wants.
12:02I'm not easily dismissed, boy.
12:06Yes, ma'am.
12:17Yes, ma'am?
12:19Transfer one and a half million dollars to the account I gave you earlier.
12:24Yeah.
12:26Andrew Johnson.
12:29Also, contact an event planner
12:32and call the tabloids.
12:35New York is about to see how well the Browns can throw an engagement party.
12:41And who's getting engaged, ma'am?
12:43Myself.
12:46Carolyn Brown and Andrew Johnson.
12:55Hi, how are you tonight?
12:57Hello. Yes, of course.
12:59I'm so happy to help you with that.
13:01You're welcome.
13:02Hey, is Susan there?
13:04Wait over there.
13:12Daughter of Brown family says she has finally found a partner
13:16whose identity remains unknown.
13:19She's already found a replacement.
13:22That was fast.
13:24Without money to live on, Andrew's last hope was to see
13:27if the bank would extend him a line of credit.
13:32Susan, may I come in?
13:35Andrew! I figured I'd be seeing you soon.
13:41I know, I know. I didn't clear my bills.
13:45I don't have enough money. I'm sorry.
13:48But I have a plan.
13:50No kidding. And I'm sure you do.
13:53What do you mean?
13:55You know, I thought you'd come in here bragging about the good news this morning.
14:01Oh, look at you, pretending to be sad.
14:05Oh, you're going to go full method on me, aren't you?
14:09Susan, I just came here to ask you for another credit card.
14:12Well, of course you are. A platinum one, I assume.
14:16With your new attained fortune, you can have any card you want.
14:20No, what?
14:22Wait, I'm confused.
14:24What are you talking about?
14:26You know, you should really get into acting.
14:30Wait, well, maybe now you can.
14:32Now that money and time aren't going to be an issue.
14:35Oh, and just so you know, all your debts have been cleared.
14:38And a new card has already been set up for you.
14:40Susan, what are you talking about?
14:43Okay, you can drop the act now. It's getting a little tiring.
14:47One and a half million has been deposited into your account.
14:51I'm unemployed, almost homeless. This can't be my...
14:55To tell you the truth, the money's in your account, see?
14:58The transfer came from a brown corp.
15:01It has been checked twice. Everything is legitimate.
15:05Can't you at least take this win?
15:09This must be Karen's way of trying to manipulate me to marry her.
15:13What was that?
15:14No, nothing.
15:16Look, I'm sorry. I can't take that amount.
15:18Can you just send it back to them?
15:20I can't do that.
15:22Unless you have their bank account information.
15:24Well, I mean, don't you have it?
15:26Unfortunately, you do need to provide that information to us.
15:31But honestly, I have to say, it's interesting.
15:36What could you have possibly done to receive such a fortune?
15:41Are you the mystery fiancé from the tabloids?
15:44How did you manage that?
15:46Excuse me, Susan. I have to make a call.
15:55Andrew.
15:57Karen, what the hell is going on?
15:59I told you I don't want this money, and I can't marry you.
16:02Andrew, is that you? Please help!
16:04Enough! I won't be manipulated like this. Not again!
16:07Andrew, please!
16:09Karen, what's going on? Is everything okay?
16:12The ring! The ring! It's burning!
16:14You've got to fire! Please!
16:16Karen? Hello?
16:20What is the mystery behind the ring?
16:22What causes the ring to glow when Carolyn touches Andrew?
16:25Why does Carolyn want to marry Andrew?
16:28I want you to marry me.
16:30Is she really in trouble, or is she setting a trap for Andrew?
