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

00:54:40in the city

00:54:42one that's missing a baby.
00:54:51It's okay
00:54:53It's okay
00:54:54we'll figure this out.
00:54:58Oh my god
00:54:59did she just call me mama?
00:55:00She's yours
00:55:01if you want her to be.
00:55:07I want to be
00:55:08but
00:55:09until we figure out
00:55:10what's going on
00:55:11I can't get attached.
00:55:19Mr. Montgomery
00:55:20Mr. Montgomery
00:55:21Mr. Montgomery
00:55:22what can you say
00:55:23about the recent allegations
00:55:24that Ms. Evans
00:55:25is not the mother
00:55:26of your son's child?
00:55:28Mr. Montgomery
00:55:29you can't ignore us
00:55:30Mr. Montgomery
00:55:36What's going on?
00:55:37The press is having
00:55:38a field day out here
00:55:40I told you to
00:55:41no more scandals.
00:55:42What are you talking about?
00:55:45I went out on a limb
00:55:46for you son
00:55:47I trusted you
00:55:48and this has been
00:55:49a lie the whole time?
00:55:52You say she's the mother
00:55:53of your child?
00:55:54Prove it
00:55:55or I'll expect you
00:55:56to be the CEO
00:55:57tomorrow morning.
00:56:00How do we prove it?
00:56:03Simple
00:56:05Take a maternity test.
00:56:12How do we prove it?
00:56:15Simple
00:56:16Take a maternity test.
00:56:17We're not going away
00:56:18Mr. Montgomery
00:56:19We're trying to answer
00:56:20some questions
00:56:21come on now.
00:56:23Whoa whoa whoa
00:56:25Hi guys
00:56:27Aston
00:56:29If I take a maternity test
00:56:30they're going to know
00:56:31that Emma's not mine
00:56:32and then we may lose her
00:56:34forever
00:56:35No
00:56:39I'm sorry
00:56:40I didn't mean to
00:56:41I didn't mean to
00:56:42I didn't mean to
00:56:43I didn't mean to
00:56:44I didn't mean to
00:56:45I didn't mean to
00:56:46I didn't mean to
00:56:49I should've never lied
00:56:50in the first place
00:57:01My mom is dying
00:57:08Brad is so warm
00:57:11It's okay
00:57:16Oh, my heart was racing. I was so scared.
00:57:23It's okay. It's okay. It's all going to be okay.
00:57:31Hey.
00:57:45My mom's getting worse.
00:57:48She needs this experimental treatment, but we can't afford it, so...
00:57:54Why didn't you tell me?
00:57:58I didn't want to be a burden to you.
00:58:00You can never be a burden.
00:58:03How much does the treatment cost?
00:58:09Ten million dollars.
00:58:12I'll pay it. Every penny.
00:58:21I'll pay it. Every penny.
00:58:24Aston, I...
00:58:25Like I said, money doesn't matter. I would do anything for you, anything for our family.
00:58:34Thank you. You have no idea what this means to me.
00:58:47How do you always know just what to say to make me feel better?
00:58:51Because I know you. I know what you want. I know what you need.
00:58:55That's what happens to someone when you...
00:59:00When you... When you what?
00:59:05When you love someone.
00:59:08And I love you, Stella Evans.
00:59:17You love me?
00:59:20I do.
00:59:23I can't believe it's taken me so long to say it.
00:59:31Please tell me you feel the same.
00:59:47I don't know what I'm feeling. It's all just... It's too much.
00:59:55I understand.
01:00:02Hi, I'd like to pay a bill for Mary Evans.
01:00:09It has.
01:00:12By who?
01:00:16I see. Thank you.
01:00:37A year ago, I gave up my baby girl.
01:00:43I had no choice, and it broke my heart.
01:00:46The chances are almost impossible, but I have to know.
01:00:50Could Emma be my daughter?
01:01:02Hello? I'd like to schedule a maternity test.
01:01:13Hey, Stella, do you...
01:01:17Everything okay?
01:01:20Fine.
01:01:23Um...
01:01:26You seem... off.
01:01:33I'm just stressed.
01:01:38I just can't stop thinking about Emma's mother,
01:01:40and how our lives could come crashing down over some maternity test.
01:01:44Then don't take it.
01:01:46What?
01:01:48No, I can't ask you to do that. That's not fair to you.
01:01:52Don't worry about what's fair to...
01:01:54It's all I'm worried about.
01:01:56You mean more to me than this CEO position.
01:02:00He's trying to help, but if Emma's somehow mine,
01:02:03I can save Aston's job and his reputation.
01:02:07Just don't do anything rash, okay?
01:02:11We still have until tomorrow to figure it out.
01:02:17I need to ask.
01:02:19Does the name Andrew Beaumont mean anything to you?
01:02:24No. Should it?
01:02:27Well, he paid for your mother's treatment.
01:02:31All ten million.
01:02:45Mom?
01:02:47Who's Andrew Beaumont?
01:02:51How do you know about him?
01:02:55He paid for your treatment.
01:02:58Who is he?
01:03:03Mom?
01:03:05Mom?
01:03:06Mom!
01:03:07Someone call a doctor!
01:03:09Mom!
01:03:12I spoke with the doctors.
01:03:16She's been put in a medically induced coma until the swelling in her brain subsides.
01:03:22It's all my fault if I wouldn't have pushed her.
01:03:25No, Stella. It is not your fault.
01:03:28It's not your fault.
01:03:30It's not your fault.
01:03:32It's not your fault.
01:03:34It's not your fault.
01:03:36It's not your fault.
01:03:38It's not your fault.
01:03:43I know. I know. And I know she's sick.
01:03:46I just wish there was something I could do.
01:03:49She's with the doctors now.
01:03:51She's getting the treatment she needs.
01:03:53It'll all be fine.
01:03:55No matter how much you keep blaming yourself.
01:03:59I say it again.
01:04:01It's not your fault.
01:04:08Okay, Emma, time to learn the truth.
01:04:38In breaking news, CEO Aston Montgomery has called a last-minute press conference to
01:04:45address the future of Montgomery Enterprises.
01:04:48Reporters have it on good authority that he is prepared to step down as CEO, handing the
01:04:52company over to his half-brother, Clive Montgomery, in the wake of a paternity scandal.
01:05:08Oh my God.
01:05:17I can save him.
01:05:18Do you have anything to say about this?
01:05:19Ma'am, ma'am, how do you answer the allegation?
01:05:20What do you say about these accusations?
01:05:21Sir, can you please tell her?
01:05:22Mr. Montgomery, you do understand that not forcing your wife to take a maternity test
01:05:32is an admission of guilt, right?
01:05:34Which means you've been lying to everyone.
01:05:38Wait!
01:05:39We're not lying.
01:05:40I took the test.
01:05:42I have the results right here.
01:05:48I have the results right here.
01:05:49Over here, ma'am.
01:05:50Ma'am, ma'am, come on, don't be childish, ma'am.
01:05:52Hey, you know how much I'm willing to pay for those?
01:05:56Not enough.
01:05:57Trust me.
01:05:58You took the maternity test?
01:06:07Why?
01:06:08Aston, there's something I need to tell you.
01:06:09Show us the results, sweetheart.
01:06:11Prove your husband's not lying.
01:06:18I don't owe anyone proof.
01:06:19Believe me or don't.
01:06:20But I am Emma's mother.
01:06:22I believe you.
01:06:25Even think about it, Dahlia.
01:06:33This is so sweet.
01:06:37If only it mattered.
01:06:40You're too late, Stella.
01:06:42Aston already stepped down.
01:06:45You already stepped down?
01:06:53Yes.
01:06:54To protect you.
01:06:55To protect Emma.
01:06:56Aston, we were fine.
01:06:57All you've ever wanted to do is be seen.
01:06:58To be a great husband to you and a great father to Emma.
01:07:03That's all that matters to me.
01:07:04We can figure out the rest.
01:07:06It looks like you're working for me now, brother.
01:07:10I own the company now.
01:07:12Which means I owe you.
01:07:16Not quite.
01:07:18I just received an offer from Montgomery Enterprises.
01:07:23One that I couldn't refuse.
01:07:26Meet our buyer.
01:07:29Andrew Beaumont.
01:07:36Stella's father.
01:07:42Stella, you look just like your mother.
01:07:49This is ridiculous.
01:07:51You're trying to tell me that Stella's related to a billionaire?
01:07:55She's nothing but a piece of trash.
01:07:58Don't speak about my daughter that way.
01:08:01Your daughter?
01:08:02How dare you call me that?
01:08:04You left Mom and I.
01:08:06No.
01:08:08Stella, I never left you.
01:08:10Your mother, she kicked me out.
01:08:13Because I wasn't the husband or the father that I needed to be.
01:08:17But I'm here now.
01:08:21To make it up to you.
01:08:23This company belongs to me.
01:08:25Not this low class peasant bitch.
01:08:28Ow, my baby.
01:08:31Damn, that felt good.
01:08:33Get out of my office or I'll have you arrested for assault.
01:08:37Actually, the office belongs to my daughter now.
01:08:42As does the company.
01:08:45What?
01:08:50I'm the CEO of Montgomery Enterprises?
01:08:59I'm the CEO of Montgomery Enterprises?
01:09:06Oh yes.
01:09:08Which means you get to decide how we get rid of Five.
01:09:14You're fired.
01:09:16Effective immediately.
01:09:17You can't do that.
01:09:20Montgomery Enterprises belongs to her.
01:09:22She can do whatever she wants.
01:09:28This can't be happening.
01:09:34I planned everything perfectly.
01:09:38That little orphan would have made the perfect scandal if not for Stella interfering.
01:09:44And you.
01:09:46You were supposed to convince that little bitch that you were pregnant with Aston's baby.
01:09:50But no.
01:09:52You failed and fucked us all.
01:09:55I didn't.
01:09:59Clive, Clarissa, get the hell out of my office.
01:10:02You too, Dahlia.
01:10:03Get out.
01:10:04You can't kick me out.
01:10:06I'm Robert's wife.
01:10:08Not anymore.
01:10:10I want a divorce.
01:10:13What?
01:10:15This is not...
01:10:27I always thought she looked just like you when she was sleeping.
01:10:34I never thought I'd see her again.
01:10:38I never wanted to give her up, but when Mom got sick and the medical bills, I just...
01:10:47I knew we couldn't afford it.
01:10:51That's all in the past.
01:10:54But I want to talk about our future.
01:11:00How would you feel about one more?
01:11:09This house is pretty big.
01:11:11Why stop at one?
01:11:14I like the way you think.
01:11:30So, what's your first order of business as CEO?
01:11:43Well, since I've already violated the employee handbook...
01:11:47Twice.
01:11:51I was thinking we could talk business.
01:11:56No one knows more about Montgomery Enterprises than you.
01:12:03I was hoping you might show me the ropes.
01:12:07I'd be happy to.
01:12:12Let's violate the handbook one more time.
01:12:27I'm sorry.
01:12:29I'm sorry.
01:12:31I'm sorry.
01:12:33I'm sorry.
01:12:35I'm sorry.
01:12:37I'm sorry.
01:12:39I'm sorry.
01:12:41I'm sorry.
01:12:43I'm sorry.
01:12:45I'm sorry.
01:12:47I'm sorry.
01:12:49I'm sorry.
01:12:51I'm sorry.
01:12:53I'm sorry.
01:12:55I'm sorry.
01:13:04I'm pregnant.
01:13:15Hey.
01:13:18Your mother and I were just catching up.
01:13:22I still can't believe this.
01:13:26Forgive me for not telling you about your father sooner.
01:13:30When I got sick, I decided to write him.
01:13:33Forgiving him.
01:13:36I never thought you would.
01:13:40And, um...
01:13:43I hope you can forgive me too.
01:13:47You've been missing from my life for years.
01:13:51It's going to take more than money to earn my forgiveness.
01:13:55I understand.
01:13:58And I'd really like to get to know you better.
01:14:01And my grandbaby.
01:14:08Which one?
01:14:13Here.
01:14:17Oh, Stella!
01:14:24Alston, your assistant called and said it was an emergency.
01:14:28Stella Evans?
01:14:31Yes.
01:14:35Come with me.
01:14:43The last time I heard those words, I got roped into a fake marriage.
01:14:47Well, this time...
01:14:51I'm hoping you'll say yes to a real one.
01:15:04Alston, is that your mother's ring?
01:15:07It is.
01:15:09It is.
01:15:11And you're the only person who's ever been worthy of it.
01:15:15Stella Evans, ever since you stepped into my office,
01:15:18you have changed the course of my life.
01:15:21You have given me a beautiful child.
01:15:24Children?
01:15:27I'm pregnant.
01:15:31I want forever with you.
01:15:34No deals, no schemes.
01:15:37Just us.
01:15:40Will you marry me?
01:15:48I can't.
01:15:56It's just, we've done this whole thing backwards.
01:15:59I want us to take our time.
01:16:02Okay.
01:16:04Be patient.
01:16:07But when you're ready for forever, let me know.
01:16:11Because I'm all in, Stella Evans.
