00:00:00Cheers, may it be full of surprises.
00:00:06Ho ho ho, I have a gift for you.
00:00:09Jessica, you have inherited this mansion, along with your father's business empire and
00:00:14assets worth over a billion dollars.
00:00:17I just need a signature from you.
00:00:18Oh, and a hundred and five million dollars in cash.
00:00:22We're rich!
00:00:27Let me hold on to it a bit for you, baby.
00:00:30You know, my whole life, I grew up in foster care, moving from place to place, and now
00:00:39I finally have a place that I can call home.
00:00:41Well, it's real great to win the jackpot.
00:00:43No, my only wish is to reunite with my mother.
00:00:48You bastard child!
00:00:50You will never reunite with your mother.
00:00:52We made sure that that whore is gone forever.
00:00:56My mother is gone because of you?
00:00:58Well, we had a little help from James Thornton, the most powerful man in the Thornton family.
00:01:04Time for you to go back to your poor little country, sis.
00:01:07Yes, ma'am.
00:01:08USCIS.
00:01:09Your visa expired years ago.
00:01:10You're being deported.
00:01:11What?
00:01:12No, there must be some mistake here.
00:01:13Adrian, didn't you help me file my immigration paperwork?
00:01:18Whoops.
00:01:19Well, I guess I screwed up.
00:01:22What?
00:01:23Hey, baby.
00:01:24Hey.
00:01:26Adrian, are you cheating on me?
00:01:29With her?
00:01:30Two's the right side, babe.
00:01:31You'll never win against them.
00:01:33It's true.
00:01:34Um, according to the terms of the will, non-citizens are not eligible to inherit the estate.
00:01:41Everything will pass through your next of kin, Lisa and Kristen Miller.
00:01:46You thought you could get rich overnight?
00:01:49Keep dreaming.
00:01:50Seriously?
00:01:51Bon voyage, av, sis.
00:01:56The boss is urgent.
00:01:59They're about to deport a woman named Jessica Miller.
00:02:02Jessica Miller?
00:02:05It's her.
00:02:13Oh, thank God you're alive.
00:02:16She's so beautiful and kind, the girl I've always dreamed of.
00:02:19She saved my life once.
00:02:22I owe her.
00:02:25Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.
00:02:28Jessica?
00:02:29Do I know you?
00:02:31She doesn't remember me.
00:02:37I'm Daniel.
00:02:38You're a lawyer.
00:02:39Just pretend we know each other.
00:02:41I can get you out of here.
00:02:43We've spoken to the judge, and Miss Miller should be released immediately.
00:02:47We can't deport her.
00:02:49She is about to marry a U.S. citizen.
00:02:54Who's the lucky guy?
00:02:55I am.
00:02:57I marry her.
00:03:03A fake marriage won't save her.
00:03:05Our marriage is real.
00:03:07Yeah, 100% real.
00:03:09Prove it then.
00:03:17That's it?
00:03:18You call that a kiss?
00:03:24Need more proof, officer?
00:03:26Look, this guy is a lawyer to some of the most important families in town.
00:03:30And if you don't let her go, then he'll make sure you lose your damn job.
00:03:34Fine, you can have her.
00:03:36Thank you, officer.
00:03:42Guys, I think we're good.
00:03:44It's not over.
00:03:46It's not over.
00:03:48It's not over.
00:03:50It's not over.
00:03:53It's not over.
00:03:56We'll be checking your marital status and conducting interviews.
00:03:59And there are a few very specific requirements you should know.
00:04:03Make sure you two are staying in the same house and sleeping in the same bed.
00:04:07Or it's game over.
00:04:11Well...
00:04:14Thank you...
00:04:16for the rescue.
00:04:18Oh, it's no problem.
00:04:20But, um...
00:04:22Daniel, would you...
00:04:25Would you marry me?
00:04:27Oh, Jessica, I've waited for this moment for five years.
00:04:30I mean, it would only be a contract marriage.
00:04:34But once I get my green card,
00:04:36I'll inherit my father's business empire.
00:04:39And I'll share half of it with you.
00:04:42Even your misunderstanding looks so cute.
00:04:44I only want you, Jessica.
00:04:46But before I get my green card,
00:04:50you're gonna have to help me deal with my stepsister and her mom.
00:04:54They're trying to get rid of me.
00:04:56And they've already stolen my fortune.
00:04:58And they made my mother disappear.
00:05:03Deal.
00:05:04What?
00:05:06That's it?
00:05:09This, Lily, stands for loyalties and new beginnings.
00:05:13Something that I want with you.
00:05:15Now I know it's rushed.
00:05:18But I promise you,
00:05:20I will buy you a proper ring soon.
00:05:31From now on, let's make every Christmas our own.
00:05:34Filled with memories.
00:05:48You can't do this!
00:05:50Jess, it's okay. Just wait here.
00:05:52I'll handle it.
00:05:58What?
00:06:00Why are you helping that girl?
00:06:02Kristen Miller is our ally.
00:06:04And she wants her the hell out of this picture.
00:06:06It's too late, Dad. We already got married.
00:06:08Are you insane?
00:06:10Did you forget you're supposed to marry Ashley?
00:06:14Daniel Thornton.
00:06:18My mother is gone because of you?
00:06:20Well, we had a little help from James Thornton.
00:06:23The most powerful man in the Thornton family.
00:06:27Wait. I recognize that face.
00:06:30From the newspaper. That was James Thornton.
00:06:33From the Thornton family.
00:06:35The family responsible for my mother's disappearance.
00:06:39Stop telling me what I can and cannot do.
00:06:41She saved my life. I owe it to her.
00:06:43Roll the hell up, Daniel.
00:06:45You need to remember your position as the heir to our family.
00:06:49And you need to divorce that girl.
00:06:51Now.
00:06:53I'm doing this to clean your mess up.
00:06:55Just leave us alone.
00:07:03Sorry about that.
00:07:05Sorry about that.
00:07:07Is your name Daniel Thornton?
00:07:11Yeah.
00:07:13The Thornton family are responsible for the disappearance of my mother.
00:07:18I have been searching for her my entire life.
00:07:22Jess. I can explain.
00:07:24I'm not marrying Thornton.
00:07:26Wait, wait, wait. Jess, Jess.
00:07:28I'm not who you think I am.
00:07:30I have nothing to do with that family.
00:07:32Oh, really? Because your name is right here.
00:07:35On the marriage certificate.
00:07:37I share the last name as Thornton.
00:07:39But I am not one of them.
00:07:41Thornton is a common name.
00:07:43Just an ordinary guy.
00:07:45Really? Well, I don't believe you.
00:07:47I saw you talking to James Thornton.
00:07:49Is he your father?
00:07:51Is he your father?
00:07:53No, he's not my father.
00:07:55He was threatening to drive you out of the country
00:07:57and I was not going to have anything to do with it.
00:07:59Jess.
00:08:01I'm on your side.
00:08:03I'm sorry.
00:08:05It's okay.
00:08:07Don't worry about it.
00:08:13You have a nice apartment.
00:08:15Welcome.
00:08:17Is that your Labrador?
00:08:19It looks exactly like mine.
00:08:21I got mine as a Christmas present when I was nine.
00:08:23No way.
00:08:25I got mine as a Christmas present when I was nine.
00:08:27That's crazy.
00:08:33Jess, we're going to have to sleep in the same room together
00:08:35just in case immigration ambush us.
00:08:37Yeah, but are you sure you're okay sleeping on the carpet?
00:08:39I mean, you've done so much for me already and I just...
00:08:41Jess, please.
00:08:43I insist.
00:08:45We made a deal, remember?
00:08:47I also want to thank you
00:08:49for giving me the chance to get rich.
00:08:53It's okay, Daniel.
00:09:03I'm sorry.
00:09:25She's buying on you.
00:09:27No.
00:09:29No, no, no.
00:09:32I was just passing by and just...
00:09:34Do you need anything?
00:09:36I was joking.
00:09:38Yeah, could you pass me
00:09:40the towel that's just
00:09:42hanging out next to the door?
00:09:44Yeah, sure, sure.
00:09:48Thanks.
00:09:51Oh, my God.
00:09:53What?
00:09:55I just got fired.
00:09:57What?
00:09:59Wait, Jess, let me go with you.
00:10:05Yeah.
00:10:07Yeah.
00:10:17Sam, please,
00:10:19don't fire me.
00:10:21I'm sorry, Jess,
00:10:23but your immigration issue
00:10:25put us in a tough spot.
00:10:27I worked for this company
00:10:29for years.
00:10:31I'm sorry, Jess.
00:10:33There's nothing I can do.
00:10:36Nothing I can do.
00:10:38I'm sorry.
00:10:44Look who's here.
00:10:46Someone who just got fired.
00:10:48This suits you.
00:10:54It was you.
00:10:56I should have known you were behind this.
00:10:58I'm not gonna let you stay here and ruin things.
00:11:00I'm gonna take away everything you have, sister.
00:11:06You just made a big mistake, sir.
00:11:08Who are you?
00:11:10My name is Daniel Thornton,
00:11:12son of James Thornton,
00:11:14the chairman of Thornton Enterprise.
00:11:16Oh,
00:11:18Mr. Thornton,
00:11:20welcome.
00:11:22What brings you here?
00:11:24Well,
00:11:26I have some good news for you.
00:11:28Jessica Miller,
00:11:30she's just closed a billion dollar deal.
00:11:32Take a look.
00:11:36Oh,
00:11:44my God.
00:11:50It's real.
00:11:52Absolutely.
00:11:54With her hard work and dedication,
00:11:56she's made this possible.
00:11:58It's a real shame you're gonna lose
00:12:00such a valuable employee.
00:12:02Oh, Mr. Thornton,
00:12:04you made a huge mistake.
00:12:06Jessica
00:12:08will stay.
00:12:10Good.
00:12:12And, uh,
00:12:14make sure nobody knows we had this conversation.
00:12:20Jessica,
00:12:22you should have told me.
00:12:26What are you talking about, Sam?
00:12:28Jessica,
00:12:30you secured a huge deal for the company.
00:12:33Did you not just fire her?
00:12:35I changed my
00:12:37mind. Jessica's staying.
00:12:39Actually,
00:12:41she's being promoted
00:12:43to sales manager.
00:12:45Can't afford to lose someone as valuable as like her.
00:12:47Great.
00:12:49Thanks, Sam.
00:12:51This
00:12:53is not over.
00:12:57I can't believe it.
00:12:59Jessica kept her job and she gets promoted.
00:13:02Don't worry, Lisa.
00:13:04I just spoke with James Thornton
00:13:06and he had the lawyer change the will
00:13:08in our favor.
00:13:10Jessica will get nothing.
00:13:12Oh my God.
00:13:14That's fantastic.
00:13:26No way.
00:13:32Jessica,
00:13:34how's work? Did you get your job back?
00:13:36Daniel,
00:13:38I need a lawyer.
00:13:45Well,
00:13:47look who decided to show up.
00:13:49Too bad for you, Jess.
00:13:51Turns out Daddy's will left you nothing.
00:13:53I knew all along
00:13:55Robert wouldn't leave anything
00:13:57for this little pathetic
00:13:59bastard child.
00:14:01You are out of luck.
00:14:03Well, that's a lie.
00:14:05You showed me the will
00:14:07and I signed the documents.
00:14:09I'm sorry, Jessica.
00:14:11I've just discovered a revised will
00:14:13that supports Kristen and Lisa's
00:14:15claims.
00:14:17Mr. Thornton.
00:14:19Who is this?
00:14:21He's my lawyer and a damn good one.
00:14:23Oh.
00:14:25You know, Jess, I didn't realize you had enough money
00:14:27to pay for a fancy little lawyer.
00:14:30Patrick,
00:14:32can I have a word with you outside?
00:14:34Talk all you want.
00:14:36It won't change anything.
00:14:45All right, Patrick.
00:14:47I'm going to keep this short and sweet.
00:14:49I know you changed the will to favor Kristen and Lisa.
00:14:51I know what you're talking about, Mr. Thornton.
00:14:53The revised will's solid.
00:14:55Ted found an email
00:14:57exchange with my father.
00:14:59Take a look.
00:15:01You've been caught, Patrick.
00:15:03Honor of the will, I'll report you to the Bar Association.
00:15:05You'll lose your license
00:15:07and any chance of practicing law or gain.
00:15:09That goes against your father's wishes.
00:15:11You don't understand the position he put me in.
00:15:13I'll deal with my father. Don't you worry about that.
00:15:15You
00:15:17just worry about doing the right thing.
00:15:23Um,
00:15:25this revised will's a fake.
00:15:28What the hell are you doing?
00:15:30He's doing the right thing.
00:15:34Jessica, you've gotten your inheritance back.
00:15:36Congratulations.
00:15:38Oh my
00:15:40God.
00:15:42Patrick, do what you are supposed to do
00:15:44or James will make sure
00:15:46you face the consequences.
00:15:50Don't listen to her, Patrick.
00:15:52I'll deal with James Thornton.
00:15:54Who the hell do you think you are?
00:15:57James Thornton is one of the most powerful men in this town.
00:15:59I sure can.
00:16:01Isn't that right, Patrick?
00:16:03Yes, the original will stands.
00:16:05No, you are crazy.
00:16:07No, I'm not.
00:16:09According to the original will,
00:16:11Jessica stands to inherit this mansion.
00:16:13Kristen, you're out.
00:16:15I think you two should leave.
00:16:17You home wrecker.
00:16:19Just like your mother.
00:16:21I will not allow violence.
00:16:23I didn't come here to
00:16:25argue over a house
00:16:27and assets.
00:16:29I came here to be recognized
00:16:31as an actual member of this family.
00:16:33It was easy for you to say you're getting everything.
00:16:35You don't know how lucky you are, Lisa.
00:16:37You grew up with a father who loved you.
00:16:39I had none.
00:16:41And you took my mother away from me
00:16:43and I still don't know
00:16:45where she is.
00:16:47You two don't deserve this mansion
00:16:49and I would rather give it away
00:16:51to charity
00:16:53than let you live in it.
00:17:01You two should pack your things up.
00:17:03You have one week to leave this house.
00:17:13What the hell were you thinking?
00:17:15Sabotaging my plan?
00:17:17I was just doing the right thing.
00:17:19The right thing? Going against me?
00:17:21Kristen Miller has got no power anymore.
00:17:23Her game is over.
00:17:25I'm sure you didn't come all this way
00:17:27just to argue with me.
00:17:29So what do you want?
00:17:31I just want Jessica to get her mom back.
00:17:35Interesting.
00:17:39What's in it for me?
00:17:41Once Jessica gets her mom back
00:17:43I'll do whatever you want.
00:17:45Whatever I want?
00:17:47Like what exactly?
00:17:49I'll marry Ashley.
00:17:53You'll marry Ashley?
00:17:55Yeah.
00:17:57You're willing to do that?
00:17:59Yeah, I am.
00:18:01But only if she's reunited with her mother.
00:18:03Okay.
00:18:05Deal.
00:18:07I'll make the arrangements.
00:18:09So you're really in love with this one, huh?
00:18:11Yeah.
00:18:13I am.
00:18:15Okay.
00:18:17I sure hope she's worth it.
00:18:19She is.
00:18:23What's wrong?
00:18:25We have
00:18:27a guest.
00:18:29Mr. Thornton.
00:18:31Good to see you again.
00:18:33Interview time.
00:18:35Great.
00:18:37When did you two meet?
00:18:39Uh, we met
00:18:41at a friend's party two years ago.
00:18:43What do you say, Jessica?
00:18:45Huh?
00:18:47Oh, yeah, yeah.
00:18:49Interesting.
00:18:51And when did you decide to get married?
00:18:53Eight months ago.
00:18:55Six months or eight months?
00:18:57Which one is it?
00:18:59Yeah, eight months ago.
00:19:01Sorry, I'm always getting mixed up.
00:19:03Sure.
00:19:05Easy mistake to make.
00:19:07And what's your anniversary date?
00:19:09March 15th.
00:19:11March 15th?
00:19:13All right.
00:19:17Uh,
00:19:19that's it?
00:19:21Yes, Mr. Thornton.
00:19:23I have everything I need.
00:19:25I'll report back to the judges.
00:19:27Oh, wait.
00:19:29Uh, miss.
00:19:33How did we do in there?
00:19:37It was pretty bad.
00:19:39Look,
00:19:41I'm the son
00:19:43of James Thornton.
00:19:45I know who you are.
00:19:47Okay.
00:19:49You want to bribe me?
00:19:51Yes.
00:19:53I can't be bribed.
00:19:55Here's one million dollars.
00:20:01Two million dollars.
00:20:03Right.
00:20:07Three.
00:20:09Million dollars.
00:20:11It's tempting, but like I said,
00:20:13you can't bribe me.
00:20:15Please, can you just give us one more week to prepare?
00:20:17I really want to be with this woman.
00:20:19She means the world to me.
00:20:21She saved my life.
00:20:23I'm not going to take your money,
00:20:25but I'll give you one week.
00:20:27Make it count.
00:20:31Next time, I want to see some genuine affection between you two.
00:20:33If anything seems a bit off, your game's up.
00:20:35Of course.
00:20:37One more thing.
00:20:39I can tell you two haven't had sex yet.
00:20:41I'm that good, Mr. Daniel.
00:20:43Don't try and fool me.
00:20:51She gave us another chance.
00:20:53Oh, my God.
00:20:55We have one week to get our story straight.
00:20:57Thank you, Daniel.
00:20:59You've been very, very helpful today.
00:21:19Now, I wanted to make our first Christmas special,
00:21:21so I did a little digging
00:21:23and I found this.
00:21:25This tree is amazing.
00:21:33What happened?
00:21:35Give me a look.
00:22:01Um...
00:22:03I have
00:22:05a festive
00:22:07gift
00:22:09for you two.
00:22:15Wow.
00:22:17Jess,
00:22:19you look gorgeous.
00:22:25And then I told him
00:22:27that's not how you negotiate.
00:22:29You did it!
00:22:31You did it.
00:23:01What?
00:23:13This could be wrong.
00:23:15Maybe.
00:23:17Maybe not.
00:23:31So that
00:23:33is how you
00:23:35negotiate.
00:23:37You're a loving fan.
00:23:53Stop.
00:23:55Hold on. I've got this.
00:23:57Oh.
00:24:01Oh.
00:24:31Oh.
00:24:55That looks familiar.
00:24:57I know.
00:24:59I've seen this before.
00:25:01In a magazine.
00:25:03It looks like one of those
00:25:07Fontaine Family
00:25:09watches.
00:25:11Is it real?
00:25:13No.
00:25:15It's fake.
00:25:19You wear a fake watch?
00:25:21Yeah.
00:25:27I love you.
00:25:33I'm so happy, Jess.
00:25:39There's also
00:25:41something I need to tell you
00:25:43about your mom.
00:25:47Yes.
00:25:57Oh my god.
00:25:59Did I just sleep with Daniel last night?
00:26:01I told him it would only be
00:26:03a contract marriage.
00:26:13Morning.
00:26:15This is the most beautiful morning that I've ever had.
00:26:17Daniel, I'm
00:26:19so sorry about
00:26:21last night.
00:26:23It wasn't supposed to happen
00:26:25It'll never happen again.
00:26:29She didn't mean it.
00:26:31Oh, Jessica. Last night was amazing.
00:26:37Yeah, Jess.
00:26:39I get it.
00:26:41It was a one-time thing.
00:26:45Yeah, just a one-time thing.
00:26:47Yeah.
00:26:49Anyway,
00:26:51it's your big day today.
00:26:53You're the new CEO
00:26:55of the Miller Empire.
00:26:57Thank you
00:26:59for the reminder.
00:27:03Now that you mention it,
00:27:05I'm really scared.
00:27:07Oh, no, Jess. I didn't mean it like that.
00:27:11What I was meant to say is
00:27:13I'm gonna help you.
00:27:19I don't know what to do, Mother.
00:27:21That bitch is kicking us out.
00:27:23We still have a chance.
00:27:25That bastard child needs a unanimous vote
00:27:27from the board to be chosen as the next
00:27:29CEO.
00:27:31So we just need a board member to back us up.
00:27:33I will call Richard.
00:27:35Everyone respects Richard's vote.
00:27:37And I will make sure he doesn't
00:27:39vote for her.
00:27:41And I'll dig up all the dirt I can find on her.
00:27:43You go, girl.
00:27:51These
00:27:53clothes are
00:27:55beautiful,
00:27:57but
00:27:59very expensive.
00:28:01Like this one.
00:28:03That is
00:28:05$9,000.
00:28:07Jess, don't worry about it.
00:28:09It's on me.
00:28:11Look at it as my first gift
00:28:13to my wife.
00:28:15Daniel, I can't let you pay for this.
00:28:17Look, Jess, you're gonna be a CEO,
00:28:19which means you've gotta look the part.
00:28:21Trust me.
00:28:23It's an investment.
00:28:25Mr. Thornton, welcome back.
00:28:27How can I assist you today?
00:28:29You come here a lot?
00:28:31Well, of course. Mr. Thornton owns this store.
00:28:35Jess, why don't you try this one on?
00:28:37You'll look great in it.
00:28:43Wow, Jess, you look
00:28:45amazing.
00:28:47You think so?
00:28:49Yeah.
00:28:51This is exactly what a CEO would wear.
00:28:53Absolutely. Great choice.
00:28:55We'll take this one.
00:28:57Something on your mind?
00:28:59Well,
00:29:01it's probably nothing, but it's just
00:29:03that clerk seemed very
00:29:05fond of you.
00:29:07Being friendly
00:29:09is a part of my job.
00:29:11Okay.
00:29:17So that's how
00:29:19you got your lawyer, huh?
00:29:21Now that you mention it,
00:29:23maybe she was a little friendly.
00:29:25But we got a discount.
00:29:27Show off.
00:29:37What a slut.
00:29:41Trust me, Jess.
00:29:43You can do this.
00:29:45Yeah, but what if they don't accept me?
00:29:47They will. Trust me.
00:29:49Just speak from the heart and show your true self.
00:29:53Look at you two little lovebirds.
00:29:57Pathetic.
00:30:01Ted, can we talk about this later?
00:30:03Okay.
00:30:05You go in.
00:30:07I'll meet you in there soon, okay?
00:30:09Okay.
00:30:15Good luck in there, sis.
00:30:17You're gonna need it.
00:30:19You don't have the votes.
00:30:23I know my background
00:30:25doesn't seem very typical of a CEO,
00:30:27but I built myself
00:30:29from the bottom up here.
00:30:31Miller Corporation is
00:30:33a leader in
00:30:35tech and services,
00:30:37reaching industries from healthcare
00:30:39to energy.
00:30:41We have over 10,000
00:30:43employees worldwide
00:30:45who have worked hard
00:30:47to build this company from the ground up.
00:30:49And I was one of them. I know them.
00:30:51And I believe that
00:30:53I can help lead this company
00:30:55to become everyone's company.
00:30:57Let's proceed to the vote.
00:30:59All in favor?
00:31:01Robert lost his damn mind.
00:31:03He picked his secret child
00:31:05to be the CEO
00:31:07only because of his guilty conscience.
00:31:09Richard, if I may...
00:31:11I'm not done talking.
00:31:13You can't lead us.
00:31:15And you're not getting my vote.
00:31:17Richard, if I may speak...
00:31:19Go ahead.
00:31:21But I won't change my mind.
00:31:27Sorry for interrupting everyone,
00:31:29but I have something
00:31:31important to share with you all today.
00:31:33Who the hell are you?
00:31:35Well, Richard, I'm the person who's going to expose you.
00:31:37What did you just say?
00:31:39How do I say this?
00:31:41Uh...
00:31:43You're a sex pervert.
00:31:45What?
00:31:47You see,
00:31:49everyone, this file
00:31:51contains multiple
00:31:53sexual harassment lawsuits
00:31:55against Richard over the past 30 years.
00:31:57Some of them
00:31:59also have ongoing lawsuits.
00:32:01They're all just allegations
00:32:03and they've all been settled. I'm innocent.
00:32:05We've also got in contact with some of the victims
00:32:07and they're willing to come forward and testify.
00:32:09Actually, I have not finished yet.
00:32:11You're also stealing money from the company.
00:32:13And we have the financial records
00:32:15to prove it.
00:32:21The evidence is clear.
00:32:23He's guilty.
00:32:26Okay, then.
00:32:28Let's all vote for Richard Donnell's
00:32:30immediate suspension.
00:32:32All in favor?
00:32:37We have 15 votes.
00:32:39The board has decided
00:32:41Richard Donnell is officially removed
00:32:43from his position.
00:32:45Security, escort him out
00:32:47immediately. I know my way.
00:32:50And
00:32:52all in favor of
00:32:54appointing Jessica Miller
00:32:56as the new CEO.
00:33:11I'm sorry, Aisling.
00:33:13I had to make sure I had enough evidence to nail him.
00:33:15No, don't be sorry, Daniel.
00:33:17That was so worth the wait.
00:33:19Good.
00:33:21This is not over.
00:33:23You'll see.
00:33:25How's packing going, Lisa?
00:33:27You're about to be evicted soon.
00:33:34She won again, that bitch.
00:33:36I know. It's so unfair.
00:33:38Do we have a guest?
00:33:40Lisa, honey.
00:33:42I've been trying to reach you.
00:33:44Why haven't you returned my calls?
00:33:46I've been busy.
00:33:48Busy.
00:33:50Dealing with Jessica.
00:33:52How did you know?
00:33:54Oh, I know. And I think I know how to help you take it down.
00:33:56Again.
00:33:58No use to me anymore, Adrian.
00:34:00I only needed you to help me get rid of Jessica.
00:34:02To the new
00:34:04CEO of the Miller Empire.
00:34:08Well, I couldn't have done it without you, Daniel.
00:34:10I also have
00:34:12another Christmas surprise for you.
00:34:14Who are you calling?
00:34:18Is it?
00:34:20Yes, Jess.
00:34:22It's your mother, Clara.
00:34:24Oh my God, Mom!
00:34:26Oh, Jessica, you're a grown woman now.
00:34:28The Miller family threatened to kill you, Jess.
00:34:32I had no option but to vanish.
00:34:36Mom, it's okay.
00:34:38You didn't do anything wrong.
00:34:40I'll bring you back into the country, I promise.
00:34:42Daniel, how did you find her?
00:34:44I have a few powerful friends.
00:34:46They did me a favor.
00:34:48But I'll leave you two alone.
00:35:00Two more, please.
00:35:04Daniel.
00:35:06Adrian.
00:35:08Long time no see, buddy.
00:35:10Oh my God, how long has it been?
00:35:12Ten years.
00:35:14Ten years? Oh my God.
00:35:16The last time I must have seen you
00:35:18was at law school.
00:35:20Yep.
00:35:22Go Reds.
00:35:24Go Reds.
00:35:26What are you doing here?
00:35:28Just in town to run some errands.
00:35:30Just thought I'd come here for a quick bite.
00:35:32Nice, man, nice.
00:35:34I saw your date earlier.
00:35:36She looks pretty.
00:35:38Your wife?
00:35:40Yeah, Jess.
00:35:42You're married?
00:35:44Yes.
00:35:46Yeah, you have to introduce me to her.
00:35:48Come on, let's go say hi.
00:35:50Come and say hello.
00:35:52It's good to see you, buddy.
00:35:54Good to see you too, man.
00:35:56Jess, I wanted you to meet an old friend of mine.
00:35:58Adrian, this is Jess.
00:36:00Jess, this is Adrian.
00:36:02We went to law school together.
00:36:04I...
00:36:06I don't want to see him.
00:36:10You two know each other?
00:36:12Yes, Daniel.
00:36:14I was her first boyfriend.
00:36:18Come on, Jess.
00:36:20Don't you miss me?
00:36:22I don't want to see you anymore.
00:36:24You know you still love me, Jess.
00:36:26No, I don't.
00:36:30I think you should leave, Adrian.
00:36:32Okay, Daniel, relax.
00:36:34Now.
00:36:40I'm leaving.
00:36:46She knows she's lying.
00:36:50Boss,
00:36:52Adrian Westley now represents
00:36:54Lisa and Kristen Miller.
00:36:56They want to test the word.
00:36:58I should have known.
00:37:00Adrian also knew his name, Jessica.
00:37:02Actually,
00:37:04he's the one who sabotaged Jessica's
00:37:06immigration paperwork
00:37:08and caused all this trouble.
00:37:12That son of a bitch.
00:37:14We need to win this war.
00:37:16Do whatever it takes.
00:37:24Daniel?
00:37:26Sorry.
00:37:28Did I wake you?
00:37:30No, can...
00:37:32Can you join me in bed, please?
00:37:38You sure?
00:37:42I just...
00:37:44I wanted to apologize
00:37:46for earlier.
00:37:48The restaurant.
00:37:52I got a bit carried away.
00:37:54Jess, you don't need to apologize.
00:37:56Adrian's an asshole.
00:37:58He's just trying to do it to get under your skin.
00:38:00I did care for Adrian
00:38:02once,
00:38:04but he just destroyed everything we had.
00:38:06I want you to know
00:38:10that I'm here
00:38:12because of you.
00:38:14And you're
00:38:16the only one
00:38:18who I love. No one else.
00:38:24Okay.
00:38:32I love you too, Jess.
00:38:34And I'm not going anywhere.
00:38:48Good morning, husband.
00:38:50Morning, wife.
00:38:52Are you ready
00:38:54for your big day as the new CEO?
00:38:56If only you were with me.
00:39:18You're gonna do great today.
00:39:22No.
00:39:24No, no, no.
00:39:26Jess,
00:39:28here's your coffee.
00:39:32What's wrong?
00:39:34Oh, it's just, it's this job.
00:39:36It's all so new to me.
00:39:38Okay, calm down.
00:39:40Remember, you're the CEO,
00:39:42which means
00:39:44you're the boss. Yeah, but I don't know
00:39:46how to be a boss.
00:39:48Hey, Jess.
00:39:50Look at you sitting in the big
00:39:52chair now.
00:39:54I am so
00:39:56happy you're here.
00:39:58You must be
00:40:00Daniel.
00:40:02Jessica's been talking about you for days.
00:40:04I'm flattered.
00:40:06I really wish you could be
00:40:08here with me, G. It's exhausting.
00:40:10At least you have a job, Jess.
00:40:12I've been looking for work for the past
00:40:14two months.
00:40:16Jess?
00:40:18Do you like
00:40:20Gianna being here?
00:40:22Of course.
00:40:24We've been besties since
00:40:26forever. Yeah, what kind
00:40:28of question is that? Well,
00:40:30why don't you use your CEO
00:40:32power and hire
00:40:34Gianna?
00:40:36Oh, I don't, I know what you mean.
00:40:38I don't understand.
00:40:40How would you
00:40:42like to
00:40:44come work for me?
00:40:46Of course.
00:40:48Okay then.
00:40:50My first order
00:40:52as a CEO,
00:40:54Gianna, you are
00:40:56hired as my personal assistant.
00:40:58Oh my god, Jess.
00:41:00Thank you so much.
00:41:02See? Being a boss is easy.
00:41:04You can do whatever
00:41:06you want.
00:41:08Oh my god.
00:41:10What's wrong?
00:41:12The company's stock prices are
00:41:14dropping like crazy.
00:41:16What is happening?
00:41:18This isn't right.
00:41:20The stock's getting down.
00:41:22Well, well, well.
00:41:24Looks like things aren't
00:41:26going so well.
00:41:28What did you do, Lisa?
00:41:30I asked Richard and some of the other investors
00:41:32to sell their stocks.
00:41:34What?
00:41:36Sell their stocks.
00:41:38The board members are not going to be happy about
00:41:40the stock prices, Jessica.
00:41:42What do you want?
00:41:44Resign as CEO
00:41:46or I will destroy this company.
00:41:48No way.
00:41:50Okay.
00:41:52Then I will destroy this company.
00:41:54Jessica, the board members are asking to meet
00:41:56with you. They're angry.
00:42:02What are you going to do, Jess?
00:42:04Okay, I'll meet with the board.
00:42:06Wait, Jess.
00:42:08Don't go.
00:42:10Take a seat.
00:42:12What is it?
00:42:14Lisa, are you sure
00:42:16the stock prices are going down?
00:42:18Because to me, they seem to be going up
00:42:20and up.
00:42:22That's impossible. You would need at least a billion dollars.
00:42:26I guess anything's possible these days.
00:42:28God damn it!
00:42:30God, she's annoying.
00:42:34You must be my lucky star.
00:42:44Daniel.
00:42:46Gianna.
00:42:48I know who you are, Daniel.
00:42:50You're the son of James Thornton.
00:42:52How did you find out?
00:42:54My identity is meant to be a secret.
00:42:56I used to work for your father.
00:42:58Please don't tell Jess.
00:43:00I'll pay you. How much do you want?
00:43:02I don't want your money.
00:43:04I care for my friend.
00:43:06Actually, your father fired me
00:43:08because I tried to help Jessica.
00:43:10I'm sorry, Gianna.
00:43:12It's okay.
00:43:14I just want to know why.
00:43:16She hates my family.
00:43:18I have to lie to her.
00:43:20She hates your family, but
00:43:22she loves you.
00:43:24I can see that.
00:43:26You really think so?
00:43:28Yes.
00:43:30I do, too.
00:43:32She's the best thing
00:43:34that's ever happened to me.
00:43:36That's good to hear.
00:43:38Please protect her.
00:43:46Daniel.
00:43:48It's my mom.
00:43:50Adrian threatened her.
00:43:56Adrian threatened my mom
00:43:58on the phone.
00:44:00He said he was going to block her from entering the country.
00:44:02What should we do?
00:44:04Jess.
00:44:06I don't want you to worry about it.
00:44:08I'm going to make sure your mom gets here safely.
00:44:10Ted.
00:44:26I need you to make sure
00:44:28Jessica's mom gets here safely.
00:44:30Book her on the first flight out tomorrow.
00:44:32Got it, boss.
00:44:34She'll be here in town the day after tomorrow.
00:44:36Good.
00:44:40Good.
00:44:42Jess has been taken care of.
00:44:44Your mom's going to be here
00:44:46the day after tomorrow.
00:44:48Thank you, Daniel.
00:44:50But I'm...
00:44:52I'm still scared.
00:44:54I just...
00:44:56I need a day off.
00:44:58I love the sound of that.
00:45:00What did you have in mind?
00:45:02I was thinking...
00:45:06I want to buy a house.
00:45:10So?
00:45:12Do you like this place?
00:45:14It's amazing.
00:45:16But, Jess,
00:45:18I appreciate the gesture.
00:45:20But you don't need to buy me a house.
00:45:22No.
00:45:24No.
00:45:26I insist.
00:45:28You've done so much
00:45:30to help me.
00:45:32Besides, we can live together.
00:45:34Here.
00:45:36Hi.
00:45:38Miss Thornton.
00:45:40Hi.
00:45:42Your father is here.
00:45:44Are you meeting him here?
00:45:46Well,
00:45:48I've never
00:45:50met your parents,
00:45:52so I'm pretty excited
00:45:54to meet an in-law.
00:45:56Oh, is...
00:45:58Is that him?
00:46:00Come on, let's go say hi.
00:46:02Jess, wait.
00:46:04Wait, wait, wait.
00:46:06Um...
00:46:08I might not have told my dad
00:46:10about you and our marriage.
00:46:12Why?
00:46:14Uh...
00:46:16Because he has a heart condition.
00:46:18I think it's best you stay here.
00:46:20Okay.
00:46:22I'll just
00:46:24stay here then.
00:46:26Good.
00:46:32Dad?
00:46:34Daniel, what the hell?
00:46:36Jessica's here. She can't see her face.
00:46:38Don't take them off.
00:46:40I want to talk to you
00:46:42about Ashley, Daniel.
00:46:46Why hasn't Daniel
00:46:48told his father about me
00:46:50and our wedding?
00:46:52Ashley, really? Not today.
00:46:54And
00:46:56what is this shirt you're wearing?
00:46:58Your mother insisted I wear it
00:47:00in this charity event
00:47:02Right.
00:47:04Said it makes me look more grounded.
00:47:06And I told you off.
00:47:10And don't go changing our subject.
00:47:12I want to discuss our agreement.
00:47:14I give you Clara
00:47:16and you marry Ashley.
00:47:22Why does he look so
00:47:24nervous?
00:47:26Am I not good enough?
00:47:29Do we have to talk
00:47:31about this right now?
00:47:33I held up my end of the bargain, Daniel.
00:47:35I want this deal done now.
00:47:37Actually, Clara isn't safe yet.
00:47:39Lisa Miller might try
00:47:41to be sabotaging everything.
00:47:43This is why you don't mess
00:47:45with the Miller family.
00:47:47You should have left it alone.
00:47:49All I'm asking is just a few more days.
00:47:51Ashley is coming to town in a few days.
00:47:53What?
00:47:55Jess!
00:47:57Jess!
00:48:06Dad, this is Jess.
00:48:08Jess, this is Dad.
00:48:10You can call him Jimmy.
00:48:12Jimmy?
00:48:16I'm Jimmy, sweetie.
00:48:18It's lovely to meet you, Jimmy.
00:48:20And can I just say, that is a
00:48:22lovely Hawaiian shirt.
00:48:24It really, really suits you.
00:48:26Thank you, Jessica.
00:48:28It's one I'm fond of.
00:48:32So, who is Ashley?
00:48:34I heard you guys talking about her earlier.
00:48:36Oh.
00:48:38She's just an old
00:48:40family friend.
00:48:42They grew up and went to law school
00:48:44together.
00:48:46And she had Daniel's first
00:48:48kiss.
00:48:50Her wedding is
00:48:52approaching soon and
00:48:54I'd like Daniel to attend.
00:48:56Dad!
00:48:58I'm reminiscing about the good old days.
00:49:00No, it's fine, honestly.
00:49:02It's lovely to hear about Daniel's childhood
00:49:04and more about his life.
00:49:06You bastard child!
00:49:12Well, well.
00:49:14What do we have here?
00:49:16You think you can afford this place?
00:49:18You're about to lose this battle
00:49:20and be out on the streets soon.
00:49:22Who's this clown?
00:49:26Looks like he belongs in a circus.
00:49:28How dare you, Kristen!
00:49:30How do you know my name?
00:49:32And don't you dare
00:49:34call me by my first name.
00:49:36That's enough!
00:49:38Don't talk to my father like that.
00:49:44He's your father.
00:49:46How does it feel to be a
00:49:48father of such a loser?
00:49:50Don't talk to my family
00:49:52like that.
00:49:54Your family? Your family
00:49:56suck, Jessica.
00:49:58Especially your mother.
00:50:00The home-wrecking tramp.
00:50:02A whore.
00:50:10Your family
00:50:12suck, Jessica.
00:50:14Especially your mother.
00:50:16The home-wrecking
00:50:18tramp.
00:50:20A whore.
00:50:22Damn!
00:50:26How dare you
00:50:28slap me?
00:50:30That is enough, Kristen.
00:50:32You're not gonna wear
00:50:34hair in the middle of the night.
00:50:38Ladies, you need to leave.
00:50:40Now.
00:50:42You can't throw us out. We're buyers.
00:50:44We're not going anywhere.
00:50:46You need to leave now
00:50:48or I will call security.
00:50:50You?
00:50:52Will regret this.
00:50:54I've heard that
00:50:56a thousand times.
00:50:58Now leave.
00:51:08Thank you, Jessica.
00:51:10You stood up for me.
00:51:12Well, we're family, Jimmy.
00:51:14It's what I'm supposed to do.
00:51:18Well,
00:51:20I appreciate it.
00:51:22You're a nice girl.
00:51:24You found a good wife, son.
00:51:28Dad,
00:51:30about Ashley's wedding,
00:51:32I don't think I'm gonna be able to make it.
00:51:34I'll look into it.
00:51:36I'll speak to her about it.
00:51:38Oh, no, no, no. Daniel can still attend.
00:51:40It's not a problem.
00:51:42Jess, I just want to focus on you and I.
00:51:44I'm not the jealous type.
00:51:46Plus, I don't want you to miss
00:51:48your first crush's wedding.
00:51:52Well, you decide, Daniel.
00:51:54Oh, there's a long party.
00:51:56You two want to come?
00:51:58It's in three hours.
00:52:00Yeah.
00:52:02Dad, we'll go.
00:52:04Great.
00:52:06I'll see you there.
00:52:12Well,
00:52:18this place is extremely high class.
00:52:22Well, my
00:52:24dad has a few rich friends.
00:52:28And James Thornton
00:52:30is here.
00:52:32I know you don't want to see him,
00:52:34but Jess,
00:52:36my dad's here.
00:52:38He's gonna join us later.
00:52:40Oh, the bidding's
00:52:42about to start.
00:52:46Oh, the
00:52:48bitch is here!
00:52:50I know. Don't worry, we can teach him a lesson.
00:52:52Yeah, how?
00:52:54Let's see if Daniel can handle a little
00:52:56humiliation
00:52:58with money.
00:53:00What money? I haven't gotten my inheritance back yet.
00:53:02Yeah, I know. Your mother spoke to Richard.
00:53:04He said he's willing to donate us
00:53:06some cash if we make Jessica look ugly.
00:53:08Oh.
00:53:10You're the best.
00:53:12I know.
00:53:18Ladies and gentlemen,
00:53:20welcome to this evening's auction.

00:53:50What are they doing? Where did they get that money from?
00:53:52I don't know, but they're definitely trying to
00:53:54humiliate you here. Really?
00:53:56But I don't even care about this
00:53:58bit. Five million

00:54:40So gentlemen, there.
00:54:50Where did you get that money from?
00:54:52Well, do you remember
00:54:54me telling you about I have a powerful friend?
00:54:56Yeah, the one
00:54:58who helped me find my mother.
00:55:00Jessica.
00:55:02James Thornton.
00:55:04In the flesh. Or
00:55:06Mrs. Thornton.
00:55:08I want to apologize to you.
00:55:10I am truly sorry for everything
00:55:12I did to you and your mother.
00:55:14But I'm trying my best
00:55:16to make amends. Well,
00:55:18I don't know
00:55:20what to say. Jess,
00:55:22I know it's a lot to handle. You just gotta
00:55:24trust me. Yeah, but why didn't you just tell me
00:55:26in the first place, Daniel?
00:55:28Jess!
00:55:30Jessica! Don't follow me!
00:55:35Oh.
00:55:37This could get interesting.
00:55:39Uh-huh.
00:55:51Look who's alone.
00:55:53No, just leave me alone.
00:55:55You're never gonna win against James Thornton.
00:55:57He's my mother's best friend.
00:55:59You're gonna lose everything.
00:56:01Poor babe. Still played by the big boys.
00:56:04James Thornton and his son
00:56:06have been playing you all along.
00:56:08What?
00:56:10What did you just say? James Thornton
00:56:12and his son? Wait, Jess, you didn't
00:56:14know? Daniel Thornton
00:56:16is his son.
00:56:18Oh my God.
00:56:20I didn't know that.
00:56:22Now that I do.
00:56:24That's enough!
00:56:26Oh,
00:56:28excuse me, Mr. Thornton.
00:56:30Crown Prince said Thornton family.
00:56:34Oh.
00:56:42This man's been lying to you all along.
00:56:44Poor little girl's got no one to trust.
00:56:46Both of you, get out of here.
00:56:50Okay.
00:56:58Jess, I've been trying to tell you.
00:57:00Am I a joke to you?
00:57:02No. What do you mean?
00:57:04You and your father.
00:57:06You've been playing me
00:57:08this whole time. No.
00:57:10I've been standing by your side all the time,
00:57:12Jess.
00:57:14I can't trust you.
00:57:16You're lying to me. You're right.
00:57:18You're right.
00:57:22I have been hiding things from you.
00:57:26You know what I haven't told you yet?
00:57:29Another big secret.
00:57:32Are you sure you want to hear this?
00:57:40The other big secret is
00:57:42the first time we met isn't what you think it is.
00:57:44It was five years ago.
00:57:46Five years ago?
00:57:48Yes.
00:57:50At a party.
00:57:52I was drunk and I fell in a pool.
00:57:58Oh, my God.
00:58:04Oh, thank God you're alive.
00:58:10I was drowning and you saved my life.
00:58:12But you won't remember that.
00:58:16But I will forever be grateful
00:58:18for what you did for me that day.
00:58:20Father?
00:58:22That was you? Yes.
00:58:24My father forbid me from seeing you.
00:58:26But I didn't care.
00:58:28I confronted him.
00:58:30You can't tell me what to do, Dad.
00:58:32You can't stop me from seeing her.
00:58:34I'm doing what's best for you, Daniel.
00:58:36That girl and all her family
00:58:38are nothing but trouble.
00:58:40And then he decided to tell me
00:58:42about everything he did to you and your mom.
00:58:44And I felt so guilty.
00:58:46It's okay.
00:58:50I was ashamed to approach you.
00:58:52I just didn't know how to face you without making things worse.
00:58:54And I thought the best thing to do was just leave you alone.
00:58:58No, I know.
00:59:00And then I heard about you being deported and I just couldn't let that happen.
00:59:02Well...
00:59:04I saved you.
00:59:08And you saved me.
00:59:12Because we just belong together.
00:59:18Ew, corny.
00:59:20But just...
00:59:24No more secrets.
00:59:26Okay?
00:59:28I promise.
00:59:30No more secrets.
00:59:32Okay.
00:59:48You're up early.
00:59:50Yeah.
00:59:52I'm gonna go pick your mom up from the airport.
00:59:54Better soon than later.
00:59:58Gianna just texted me.
01:00:00She said that I have my first weekly exec meeting this morning.
01:00:04I should postpone it.
01:00:06No.
01:00:08You should definitely go to that.
01:00:10You need to look good in front of your board.
01:00:12Really?
01:00:14Yeah.
01:00:16I'm gonna go pick your mom up from the airport and I'll bring her straight to the office.
01:00:18Thanks.
01:00:20You're the best.
01:00:22Well, that went better than I thought.
01:00:24Someone underestimates yourself, Jess.
01:00:26You did great.
01:00:30Heya, Jess.
01:00:32What are you doing here?
01:00:38What are you doing here?
01:00:40I just wanted to share with you some interesting facts
01:00:42about your dear husband, Daniel Thornton.
01:00:46Gianna, can you wait outside a moment?
01:00:52Okay, I'm telling you now.
01:00:54Whatever bad, made-up facts
01:00:56that you've come to tell me about Daniel
01:00:58is not going to work.
01:01:00Because Daniel already told me everything.
01:01:02Everything?
01:01:04Are you so sure?
01:01:06Yeah. Him and his father came clean about everything.
01:01:08There is nothing more to hide.
01:01:10And did they also tell you
01:01:12Daniel was supposed to marry his childhood sweetheart?
01:01:14What?
01:01:16Ashley Wimbledon, heiress to the famous Wimbledon family.
01:01:18Ring any bells?
01:01:20Ashley.
01:01:24Ashley.
01:01:26Who is Ashley?
01:01:28I heard you guys talking about her earlier.
01:01:30Oh, she's just an
01:01:32old childhood friend.
01:01:34They grew up and went to
01:01:36law school together.
01:01:38And she had Daniel's
01:01:40first kiss.
01:01:44He did mention Ashley.
01:01:48He did?
01:01:50Yeah, but he's not gonna marry her.
01:01:52I remember that conversation.
01:01:56Daniel's
01:01:58picking my mother up from the airport
01:02:00himself. I'll be seeing her soon.
01:02:04What are you laughing about?
01:02:10Daniel wants to bring her back, babe.
01:02:12You're not gonna see her.
01:02:18After years of separation with your mother,
01:02:20Daniel didn't let you go
01:02:22along with him to meet with her?
01:02:24What kind of a husband does that?
01:02:26I had an early meeting this morning
01:02:28and Daniel didn't want me to worry.
01:02:30So easily manipulated,
01:02:32Jess.
01:02:34Just like old times.
01:02:36Yeah, well,
01:02:38I don't believe a word you say.
01:02:40Daniel isn't gonna bring
01:02:42her back.
01:02:44Care to find out together?
01:02:46Are you sure everything is taken care of?
01:02:48Yes.
01:02:50You're free to live in this country.
01:02:52Clara, I also want to apologize
01:02:54for everything you went through years ago.
01:02:56I'm deeply sorry.
01:02:58Well, you did bring me back here.
01:03:00Right now, I just want to see my daughter.
01:03:02We'll go to her.
01:03:04Not so fast, Danny boy.
01:03:08You're too late, Lisa.
01:03:10You're not going anywhere.
01:03:12You're too late, Lisa.
01:03:14Clara's here to claim Robert's inheritance back.
01:03:16Oh, I don't think so.
01:03:18Agents, do your thing.
01:03:20Wait.
01:03:22What?
01:03:24This is a mistake.
01:03:26No.
01:03:28Clara's got past customs.
01:03:30She can stay.
01:03:32Sweetheart, you really think those little documents
01:03:34can stop this?
01:03:36I don't think so.
01:03:38Back off, Lisa.
01:03:40I'm taking my mother.
01:03:42Mom, I will bring her back, I promise.
01:03:44Just stay strong.
01:03:46Sis, it looks like you've been screwed by the Thorntons again.
01:03:48Adrian, you sabotaged this.
01:03:50You'll pay for this.
01:03:52See, babe, I told you he's not bringing her back.
01:03:54You said everything was taken care of.
01:03:56Jess, it's not me.
01:03:58It's them.
01:04:00You're lying, Daniel.
01:04:02Why don't you ask him about that thing we talked about?
01:04:04Jess.
01:04:06Jess.
01:04:08It's Ashley.
01:04:10Okay, so it's true.
01:04:12Jess, can we just talk about this?
01:04:14No, no, no, no, no.
01:04:16Thing is, Daniel, you promised me
01:04:18no more secrets.
01:04:20I can't trust you anymore.
01:04:22Jess!
01:04:24It looks like you lost, Daniel.
01:04:26You're never getting her back.
01:04:38Oh, thank God you're alive.
01:05:08Dad?
01:05:16Dad, what's the problem with Flora?
01:05:18Her payport was four hours.
01:05:20You're right, boss.
01:05:22I checked with customers in the USCIS
01:05:24and they both confirm that she illegally entered the country
01:05:26and killed her.
01:05:28That is a lie.
01:05:30Agents, do your thing.
01:05:32Wait.
01:05:34What?
01:05:36Jess!
01:05:38Jess, baby!
01:05:42The ICE agents weren't real.
01:05:44They were hired by Adrian and Lisa to kidnap Clara.
01:05:46Hold on a sec.
01:05:50You're right, boss.
01:05:52We found out those people want her.
01:05:54What should we do?
01:05:56I need to find out where they took them.
01:05:58Use all our contacts.
01:06:00I'm not going to let them get away with this.
01:06:02On it, boss.
01:06:06Well, well, well, Clara.
01:06:08I bet you didn't expect to see me again, did you?
01:06:10We finally have what it takes to get it all back?
01:06:12Don't look at me like that.
01:06:14You disgust me.
01:06:22Jess, we need to talk.
01:06:24I don't want to talk to you.
01:06:26It's about your mom.
01:06:28I think she was kidnapped by Adrian and Lisa's people.
01:06:30The ICE agents weren't real.
01:06:32I don't want to talk to you.
01:06:34The ICE agents weren't real.
01:06:36What are you talking about?
01:06:38I spoke to Ted.
01:06:40He told me that Clara legally came into the country.
01:06:42It was a setup.
01:06:44Do you actually
01:06:46expect me to believe that?
01:06:48After all the lies?
01:06:50You're so full of shit, Daniel!
01:06:58Hello, bastard child.
01:07:00Yes, we have your mother.
01:07:02Do you ever want to see her again?
01:07:04Follow the directions to the address that we just sent you.
01:07:06And don't bring anyone.
01:07:08Especially Daniel.
01:07:12Let me come with you.
01:07:14No, they want me alone.
01:07:16Jess?
01:07:18Don't follow me.
01:07:20I will not let you do this alone.
01:07:26Mom?
01:07:28Bastard child, over here.
01:07:30This has gone on far enough.
01:07:32Not so fast, sis.
01:07:34This is only the beginning.
01:07:40You sign this.
01:07:42We let her go.
01:07:44And what is it?
01:07:46An agreement signing everything over to us.
01:07:48The house.
01:07:50The company.
01:07:52Everything.
01:08:00It's signed.
01:08:02Now let her go.
01:08:04God, you are so naive, sis.
01:08:08What more do you want?
01:08:10Get down on your knees
01:08:12and show that you know your place.
01:08:18Get down on your knees
01:08:20and show that you know your place.
01:08:22Wait.
01:08:26That's better.
01:08:30Okay.
01:08:36Now bark like a dog.
01:08:42God.
01:08:46That's enough, Kristen.
01:08:52We're getting out of here, Monk.
01:08:54Let's go.
01:08:58Let's get her out of here.
01:09:00Come on, let's go.
01:09:02God, Daniel!
01:09:06We can't.
01:09:08Mom, we need to finish this.
01:09:10Mom, we gotta go. Come on.
01:09:12Daniel!
01:09:18Jess.
01:09:21Don't try and talk to police.
01:09:23They're on their way.
01:09:25Jess, I'm so sorry.
01:09:27Why are you apologizing?
01:09:29Just don't move.
01:09:40The doctor said it was nothing serious,
01:09:42so you'll be out of here soon.
01:09:45Jess, I just want to apologize.
01:09:47I'm so sorry.
01:09:49Daniel, what are you apologizing for?
01:09:52You saved my mom.
01:09:54You saved us.
01:09:57Hello again, Mr. Thornton.
01:09:59Officer, you're here.
01:10:01Yes.
01:10:03You promised me last week we'd get that interview done.
01:10:07Officer, my husband is injured.
01:10:10He's literally lying in bed.
01:10:12Well, that doesn't change the requirements.
01:10:15Jess, it's okay.
01:10:18We can do the interview.
01:10:23We can do the interview.
01:10:26Are you insane?
01:10:28We haven't rehearsed this.
01:10:30Jess, when you see we've been rehearsing this whole Christmas,
01:10:35there's no better time to do this.
01:10:37You're right.
01:10:41We're ready, officer.
01:10:43Let's start with the question I asked you last week.
01:10:46When did you two first meet?
01:10:48Five years and four months ago.
01:10:50I don't understand.
01:10:52Last time you said it was six months ago
01:10:55when the other one said it was eight months ago.
01:10:57We lied, officer.
01:10:59But it was five years ago at a pool party.
01:11:03And we had our first kiss when we first met.
01:11:08It sounds pretty far-fetched.
01:11:10But for some reason,
01:11:12I want to give you two the benefit of the doubt.
01:11:16Daniel risked his life to save me and my mother.
01:11:20There's nothing more that he needs to do to prove his love for me.
01:11:23One last question.
01:11:25How frequently have you two spent the night together in the past week?
01:11:35Relax.
01:11:37I can tell.
01:11:39I can tell.
01:11:42Relax.
01:11:44I can tell it's been at least three times.
01:11:46Right, well, that's my interview done.
01:11:49You two are quite the couple.
01:11:51Thank you, officer.
01:11:53Ten, ten.
01:11:55Daniel, she's coming.
01:11:57Who's coming?
01:12:04Your fiancé.
01:12:06That's who.
01:12:12Your fiancé.
01:12:14That's who.
01:12:16Ashley.
01:12:17I guess I'm not done yet.
01:12:19You betrayed my family's trust, Daniel.
01:12:22Ashley, please.
01:12:25Can't we talk about this?
01:12:27So you're Jessica Miller, huh?
01:12:29Adrian's told me all about you.
01:12:32I don't know what Adrian told you,
01:12:35but it's not what you think.
01:12:37Daniel was supposed to marry me.
01:12:40And then you just waltzed in and ruined everything.
01:12:43Ashley, our engagement was long over before Jessica came to the picture.
01:12:51Oh, I see.
01:12:53You think this is over.
01:12:56I'm the heiress of the Wimbledon family.
01:13:00The Thornton name is as good as ruined.
01:13:04You can't do that, Ashley.
01:13:11Watch me.
01:13:16You're not the only heiress here.
01:13:22I own Miller Empire.
01:13:25And if you come for the Thorntons,
01:13:28the Miller Empire is gonna come for you so hard.
01:13:37You've got guts, Jessica.
01:13:40I like you.
01:13:44I gotta tell you, I didn't expect that.
01:13:47This is so much better than watching TV.
01:13:49Glad to see you've replaced me with someone with a little fire, Daniel.
01:13:57I always knew Daniel didn't love me,
01:14:00but he was too afraid of his father to ever go after his true love.
01:14:06But I guess I'm happy
01:14:09that he's found someone who wants the same things as him.
01:14:14So...
01:14:17that's it?
01:14:19That's it.
01:14:23Enjoy your happy ending, darling.
01:14:29Andrea, bring the car around.
01:14:34Did that actually just happen?
01:14:36Yeah.
01:14:38Wow.
01:14:39You two really don't let anyone or anything get in the way of true love.
01:14:45Didn't see that coming.
01:14:49This is all your fault, Mom.
01:14:50If you wouldn't have been so reckless, then maybe we wouldn't be in this mess.
01:14:53Don't put all the blame on me.
01:14:54You're just as much a part of this as I am.
01:14:56Where is Ashley?
01:14:57She should be here by now.
01:15:00Miss me?
01:15:01Where have you been?
01:15:02Just tying up a few loose ends.
01:15:04Don't worry about it.
01:15:06Everything's going according to plan.
01:15:08Plan?
01:15:09What plan?
01:15:10Everything's falling apart.
01:15:22What did you do, Adrian?
01:15:24Well, me myself, I done nothing illegal.
01:15:27You two on the other hand, that's a different story.
01:15:31You set us up!
01:15:33I'm just ensuring my own safety.
01:15:35After all, I kept my hands clean.
01:15:43Ow!
01:15:44You're not gonna get away with this, asshole!
01:15:46I already have.
01:15:54I remember when this place was filled with warmth and laughter.
01:15:58Used to be a real family home back then.
01:16:01But then things just went south.
01:16:04Things will be fine again, Mom, I promise.
01:16:07We'll turn this into a good family house.
01:16:09No more hatred.
01:16:11No more backstabbing.
01:16:13I missed you every single day, Jess.
01:16:15I'm so sorry for everything both of us had to go through.
01:16:22Jessica?
01:16:23Dad?
01:16:26I am so sorry for everything that I've done to you both.
01:16:30I was wrong.
01:16:32And I know I can never fully make up for it.
01:16:36But I wanna try.
01:16:37James, you kept us apart for so many years.
01:16:40It's gonna be hard to forgive and forget.
01:16:42I know, Clara.
01:16:47Jess, are you alright?
01:16:51Yeah, I know, I'm... I'm fine.
01:16:54I just feel...
01:16:56I just feel nauseous, that's all.
01:16:59Have you been getting any other symptoms like dizziness or fatigue?
01:17:04Well, yeah, but I just thought that was from all the stress.
01:17:10Sweetheart, you're pregnant!
01:17:14Really?
01:17:15You're showing all the signs, Jess.
01:17:19We're gonna have a baby!
01:17:22Wait, that means I'm gonna be a grandpa!
01:17:27Yeah!
01:17:36Daniel.
01:17:39There's something you need to do.
01:17:43What's this?
01:17:44This is a ring your grandma left.
01:17:47And I think this is the perfect time to use it.
01:17:52Go get it.
01:17:53I'm gonna do this?
01:17:54Yeah, go.
01:17:56Aww.
01:18:04Jess?
01:18:05Jess!
01:18:09Jess, I know we've only ever spent time together a week during Christmas.
01:18:13And we've been through so much in that time.
01:18:16And over the past five years, all I've wanted to do is be with you.
01:18:20And I've had to endure the pain of that not being possible.
01:18:24I want to spend every waking moment in time with you.
01:18:27What I'm trying to say is, Jess.
01:18:33Will you marry me?
01:18:37For real this time.
01:18:39Yes, Daniel! Yes, I will marry you! Yes!
01:18:42Really?
01:18:43Yes!
