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

00:53:31One million dollars!
00:53:35Two million dollars, right here.
00:53:40Three million dollars!
00:53:46Four million dollars!
00:53:49What are they doing? Where did they get that money from?
00:53:52I don't know, but they're definitely trying to humiliate you here.
00:53:55Really? But I don't even care about this bid.
00:53:59Five million dollars!
00:54:01Daniel, what are you doing?
00:54:03Don't worry, Jess. I've got this.

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