00:00:00I have a gift for you. Jessica, you have inherited this mansion, along with your father's business
00:00:13empire and assets worth over a billion dollars. I just need a signature from you. Oh, and
00:00:18a hundred and five million dollars in cash. We're rich! Let me hold onto you. You know,
00:00:29my whole life, I grew up in foster care, moving from place to place, and now I finally have
00:00:37a place that I can call home. It was real great to win the jackpot. Now my only wish
00:00:41is to reunite with my mother. You bastard child! You will never reunite with your mother.
00:00:48We made sure that that whore is gone forever. My mother is gone because of you? Well, we
00:00:54had a little help from James Thornton, the most powerful man in the Thornton family.
00:00:59Time for you to go back to your poor little country, sis. Yes, ma'am. I'm a CIS. Your
00:01:05visa expired years ago. You're being deported. What? No, there must be some mistake. Adrian,
00:01:10didn't you help me file my immigration paperwork? Oops. I guess I screwed up. What? Hey, baby.
00:01:19Adrian, are you cheating on me? With her? Choose the right side, babe. You'll never win against them.
00:01:25That's true. According to the terms of the will, non-citizens are not eligible to inherit
00:01:32the estate. Everything will pass through your next of kin, Lisa Ann Kristen Miller. You thought
00:01:38you could get rich overnight? Keep dreaming. Seriously? Bon voyage, have CIS.
00:01:49The boss is searching. They're about to deport a woman named Jessica Miller. Jessica Miller? It's her.
00:01:58Oh, thank God you're alive. She's so beautiful and kind. The girl I've always dreamed of. She saved my life once. I owe her.
00:02:14Wait, wait, wait. Jessica? Do I know you? She doesn't remember me. I'm Daniel. You're a lawyer. Just pretend we know each other. I can get you out of here.
00:02:31We spoke to the judge and Miss Miller should be released immediately. We can deport her. She is about to marry a U.S. citizen.
00:02:40Who's the lucky guy? I am. I'll marry her.
00:02:49A fake marriage won't save her. Our marriage is real. Yeah, 100% real. Prove it then.
00:03:01That's it? You call that a kiss?
00:03:09Need more proof, officer? Look, this guy is a lawyer to some of the most important families in town. And if you don't let her go, then he'll make sure you lose your damn job.
00:03:24Fine, you can have her. Thank you, officer.
00:03:31Guys, I think we're good. It's not over.
00:03:36We'll be checking your marital status and conducting interviews. And there are a few very specific requirements you should know.
00:03:42Make sure you two are staying in the same house and sleeping in the same bed. Or it's game over.
00:03:49Well, thank you for the rescue.
00:03:56Oh, it's no problem.
00:03:58But, um, Daniel, would you marry me?
00:04:04Oh, Jessica, I've waited for this moment for five years.
00:04:08I mean, it would only be a contract marriage. But once I get my green card, I'll inherit my father's business empire and I'll share half of it with you.
00:04:19Even your misunderstanding looks so cute. I only want you, Jessica.
00:04:23But before I get my green card, you're going to have to help me deal with my stepsister and her mom. They're trying to get rid of me. And they've already stolen my fortune. And they made my mother disappear.
00:04:37Deal.
00:04:39What? That's it?
00:04:43This Lily stands for loyalties and new beginnings. Something that I want with you.
00:04:49Now, I know it's rushed, but I promise you, I will buy you a proper ring soon.
00:04:56Now, let's make every Christmas a home.
00:05:09You can't do this.
00:05:21Jess, it's okay. Just wait here. I'll handle it.
00:05:29What? Why are you helping that girl? Kristen Miller is our ally and she wants her the hell out of this picture.
00:05:36It's too late, Dad. We already got married.
00:05:38Are you insane? Did you forget you're supposed to marry Ashley?
00:05:44Daniel Thornton.
00:05:47My mother is gone because of you?
00:05:49Well, we had a little help from James Thornton, the most powerful man in the Thornton family.
00:05:55Wait, I recognize that face from the newspaper. That was James Thornton from the Thornton family, the family responsible for my mother's disappearance.
00:06:08Stop telling me what I can and cannot do.
00:06:10She saved my life. I owe it to her.
00:06:12Roll the hell up, Daniel. You need to remember your position as the heir to our family and you need to divorce that girl.
00:06:19Now.
00:06:20I'm doing this to clean your mess up.
00:06:23Just leave us alone.
00:06:31Sorry about that.
00:06:32Is your name Daniel Thornton?
00:06:36Yeah.
00:06:39The Thornton family are responsible for the disappearance of my mother. I have been searching for her my entire life.
00:06:46Jess.
00:06:47No.
00:06:48I can explain.
00:06:49No, I'm not married to Thornton.
00:06:50Wait, wait, wait, Jess, Jess. I'm not who you think I am. I have nothing to do with that family.
00:06:54Oh, really? Because your name is right here on the marriage certificate.
00:06:59I share the last name as Thornton and I am not one of them. Thornton is a common name. Just an ordinary girl.
00:07:05I don't believe you. I saw you talking to James Thornton.
00:07:12Is he your father?
00:07:13No, he's not my father. He was threatening to drive you out of the country.
00:07:16And I was not going to have anything to do with it.
00:07:18Jess, I'm on your side.
00:07:20You're not one of them.
00:07:23I'm sorry.
00:07:26It's okay.
00:07:27Don't worry about it.
00:07:32You have a nice apartment.
00:07:34Welcome.
00:07:36Is that your Labrador? It looks exactly like mine. I got mine as a Christmas present when I was nine.
00:07:41No way. I got mine as a Christmas present when I was nine. That's crazy.
00:07:49Jess, we're going to have to sleep in the same room together just in case immigration ambush us.
00:07:53Yeah, but are you sure you're okay sleeping on the carpet? I mean, you've done so much for me already and I just...
00:07:59Jess, please, I insist. We made a deal, remember?
00:08:03Also, I want to thank you for giving me the chance to get rich.
00:08:08It's okay, Daniel.
00:08:34Jess?
00:08:38What are you doing?
00:08:40No, no, no, no. I was just passing by and just... Do you need anything?
00:08:48I was joking. Yeah, could you pass me a towel? It's just hanging out next to the door.
00:08:54Yeah, sure, sure.
00:09:00Oh, my God. I just got fired.
00:09:10Wait, Jess, let me go with you.
00:09:15Sam, please, don't fire me.
00:09:17I'm sorry, Jess, but your immigration issue put us in a tough spot.
00:09:23I worked for this company for years.
00:09:26I'm sorry, Jess. There's nothing I can do.
00:09:30I'm sorry.
00:09:32I'm sorry.
00:09:34I'm sorry.
00:09:36I'm sorry.
00:09:38I'm sorry.
00:09:40There's nothing I can do.
00:09:43I'm sorry.
00:09:48Look who's here.
00:09:50Someone who just got fired.
00:09:53This suits you.
00:09:57It was you.
00:09:59I should have known you were behind this.
00:10:01I'm not going to let you stay here and ruin things.
00:10:03I'm going to take away everything you have.
00:10:05Sister.
00:10:08You just made a big mistake, sir.
00:10:10Who are you?
00:10:12My name is Daniel Thornton, son of James Thornton, the chairman of Thornton Enterprise.
00:10:18Oh, Mr. Thornton, welcome.
00:10:22What brings you here?
00:10:25Well, I have some good news for you.
00:10:28Jessica Miller, she's just closed a billion dollar deal.
00:10:32Take a look.
00:10:38Oh, my God.
00:10:44It's real.
00:10:46Absolutely.
00:10:48With her hard work and dedication, she's made this possible.
00:10:51It's a real shame you're going to lose such a valuable employee.
00:10:54Oh, Mr. Thornton, I have made a huge mistake.
00:11:00Jessica will stay.
00:11:03Good.
00:11:05We'll stay.
00:11:07Good.
00:11:09And make sure nobody knows we had this conversation.
00:11:16Jessica, you should have told me.
00:11:22What are you talking about, Sam?
00:11:24Jessica, you secured a huge deal for the company.
00:11:29Did you not just fire her?
00:11:31I changed my mind.
00:11:33Actually, she's being promoted to sales manager.
00:11:38Can't afford to lose someone as valuable as like her?
00:11:41Great. Thanks, Sam.
00:11:44This is not over.
00:11:50I can't believe it. Jessica kept her job and she gets promoted.
00:11:53Don't worry, Lisa. I just spoke with James Thornton and he had the lawyer change the will in our favor.
00:11:59Jessica will get nothing.
00:12:01Oh, my God. That's fantastic.
00:12:14No way.
00:12:21Jessica, how's work? Did you get your job back?
00:12:25Daniel, I need a lawyer.
00:12:32Wow. Look who decided to show up.
00:12:35Too bad for you, Jess. Turns out daddy's will left you nothing.
00:12:39I knew all along Robert wouldn't leave anything for this little pathetic bastard child.
00:12:46You are out of luck.
00:12:48Well, that's a lie. You showed me the will. And I signed the documents.
00:12:53I'm sorry, Jessica. I've just discovered a revised will that supports Kristen and Lisa's claims.
00:13:01Stop.
00:13:03Who is this?
00:13:04He's my lawyer. And a damn good one.
00:13:07Oh. You know, Jess, I didn't realize you had enough money to pay for a fancy little lawyer.
00:13:12You sleep with him?
00:13:14Patrick, can I have a word with you outside?
00:13:17Talk all you want. It won't change anything.
00:13:22All right, Patrick. I'm going to keep this short and sweet.
00:13:26I know you changed the will to favor Kristen and Lisa.
00:13:29I know what you're talking about, Mr. Thornton. The revised will's solid.
00:13:33Ted found an email exchange with my father. Here, take a look.
00:13:37You've been caught, Patrick.
00:13:39Honor of the will, I'll report you to the Bar Association.
00:13:42You'll lose your license and any chance of practicing law again.
00:13:45That goes against your father's wishes.
00:13:47You don't understand the position he put me in.
00:13:49I'll deal with my father. Don't you worry about that.
00:13:52You just worry about doing the right thing.
00:13:59Um, this revised will's a fake. The original will's stamped.
00:14:03What the hell are you doing?
00:14:04He's doing the right thing.
00:14:07Jessica, you've gotten your inheritance back. Congratulations.
00:14:11Oh, my.
00:14:14Patrick, do what you are supposed to do or James will make sure you face the consequences.
00:14:21Don't listen to him, Patrick. I'll deal with James Thornton.
00:14:24Who the hell do you think you are?
00:14:26James Thornton is one of the most powerful men in this town.
00:14:30I sure can. Isn't that right, Patrick?
00:14:33Yes. The original will stands.
00:14:35No, you are crazy.
00:14:37No, I'm not. According to the original will,
00:14:39Kristen, you're out. I think you two should leave.
00:14:42You ho-wrecker. Just like your mother.
00:14:45I will not allow violence.
00:14:48I didn't come here to argue over a house and assets.
00:14:53I came here to be recognized as an actual member of this family.
00:14:56It was easy for you to say you're getting everything.
00:14:58You don't know how lucky you are, Lisa.
00:15:00You don't know how lucky you are, Lisa.
00:15:02You don't know how lucky you are, Lisa.
00:15:04You don't know how lucky you are, Lisa.
00:15:06I'm getting everything.
00:15:07You don't know how lucky you are, Lisa.
00:15:09You grew up with a father who loved you.
00:15:11I have none.
00:15:12And you took my mother away from me and I still don't know where she is.
00:15:17You two don't deserve this mansion.
00:15:20And I would rather give it away to a charity than see the two of you living there.
00:15:31You two should pack your things up.
00:15:32You have one week to leave this house.
00:15:36Okay.
00:15:42What the hell were you thinking?
00:15:44Sabotaging my plan?
00:15:45I was just doing the right thing.
00:15:47The right thing?
00:15:48Going against me?
00:15:50Kristen Miller has got no power anymore.
00:15:52Her game is over.
00:15:53I'm sure you didn't come all this way just to argue with me.
00:15:57So what do you want?
00:15:59I just want Jessica to get her mom back.
00:16:03Interesting.
00:16:06What's in it for me?
00:16:08Once Jessica gets her mom back, I'll do whatever you want.
00:16:11Whatever I want?
00:16:13Like what exactly?
00:16:15I'll marry Ashley.
00:16:18You'll marry Ashley?
00:16:20Yeah.
00:16:21You're willing to do that?
00:16:22Yeah, I am.
00:16:25But only if she's reunited with her mother.
00:16:29Okay, deal.
00:16:31I'll make the arrangements.
00:16:33So you're really in love with this one, huh?
00:16:35Yeah.
00:16:37I am.
00:16:38Okay, good.
00:16:40I sure hope she's not.
00:16:42She is.
00:16:47What's wrong?
00:16:48We have a guest.
00:16:52Mr. Thornton.
00:16:53Good to see you again.
00:16:55Interview time.
00:16:56Great.
00:16:59When did you two meet?
00:17:01We met at a friend's party two years ago.
00:17:05What do you say, Jessica?
00:17:07Oh, yeah, yeah.
00:17:09Interesting.
00:17:11And when did you decide to get married?
00:17:13Eight months ago.
00:17:15Six months or eight months? Which one is it?
00:17:17Yeah, eight months ago. Sorry, I just...
00:17:19Sorry, I'm always getting mixed up.
00:17:22Sure.
00:17:23Easy mistake to make.
00:17:25And what's your anniversary date?
00:17:27March 15th.
00:17:29March 15th?
00:17:31All right.
00:17:36Uh, that's it?
00:17:38Yes, Mr. Thornton.
00:17:39I have everything I need.
00:17:41I'll report back to the judges.
00:17:45Oh, wait.
00:17:46Miss.
00:17:49How did we do in there?
00:17:53It was pretty bad.
00:17:56Look.
00:17:58I'm the son of James Thornton.
00:18:00I know who you are.
00:18:03Okay.
00:18:05You want to bribe me?
00:18:07Yes.
00:18:08I can't be bribed.
00:18:10Here's one million dollars.
00:18:15Two million dollars.
00:18:17Right.
00:18:21Three million dollars.
00:18:23It's tempting, but like I said, you can't bribe me.
00:18:26Please.
00:18:27Can you just give us one more week to prepare?
00:18:30I really want to be with Miss.
00:18:32She means the world to me. She saved my life.
00:18:35I'm not going to take your money, but I'll give you one week.
00:18:37Make it count.
00:18:40Next time, I want to see some genuine affection between you two.
00:18:43If anything seems a bit off, your game's up.
00:18:46Of course.
00:18:47And one more thing.
00:18:49I can tell you two haven't had sex yet.
00:18:52I'm that good, Mr. Daniel.
00:18:54Don't try and fool me.
00:19:00She gave us another chance.
00:19:01Oh, thank God.
00:19:02We have one week to get our story straight.
00:19:05Thank you, Daniel.
00:19:07You've been very, very helpful today.
00:19:25Now, I wanted to make our first Christmas special.
00:19:28So, I did a little digging and I found this.
00:19:32This tree's amazing.
00:19:36Wow.
00:19:38What happened?
00:19:41Let me have a look.
00:20:05Um, I have a festive gift for you two.
00:20:18Wow.
00:20:20Jess, you look gorgeous.
00:20:27And then, I told him that's not how you negotiate.
00:20:30You did it!
00:20:31You did it.
00:20:35You did it.
00:21:06Okay.
00:21:10Is it a bit wrong?
00:21:11Maybe.
00:21:13Maybe not.
00:21:28Now, that is how you negotiate.
00:21:33You're like that.
00:21:36You're like that.
00:21:46Stop.

00:53:25And then he decided to tell me about everything he did to you and your mom
00:53:29And I felt so guilty
00:53:34I was ashamed to approach you. I just didn't know how to face you without making things worse
00:53:38And I thought the best thing to do was just be
00:53:42And then I heard about you being deported and I just couldn't let that happen
00:53:48I saved you

00:55:19Jonah
00:55:25Okay, I'm telling you now whatever a bad made-up facts that you've come to tell me about Daniel
00:55:33Because Daniel already told me everything

00:56:33I
00:56:44After years of separation with your mother Daniel didn't let you go along with him to meet with her
00:56:49And what kind of a husband does that? I had an early meeting this morning and Daniel didn't want me to worry
00:56:55so easily manipulated just
00:56:58Just like old times
00:57:01I don't believe a word you say Daniel isn't gonna bring it back. Can I find out together?
00:57:15Are you sure everything is taken care of? Yes, you're free to live in this country
00:57:20Clara I also want to apologize for everything you went through years ago. I'm deeply sorry. Well, you did bring me back here

00:58:09Babe, I told you he's not bringing it back
00:58:12You said everything was taken care of Jess. It's not me. It's them. You're lying Daniel
00:58:16Why don't you ask him about the thing we talked about Jess
00:58:22Jess he said that you were gonna marry Ashley. Okay, so it's true Jess. Can we just
00:58:28Talk about this. No, no, no. No. No thing is Daniel. You promised me no more secrets. I can't trust you anymore
00:58:35Jess, okay. It's just uh, it looks like you lost Daniel. You never get in the back
00:58:40Oh
00:59:00Thank God you're alive
00:59:10You
00:59:25That was the problem with Clara
00:59:27For us
00:59:39Agents do you think wait, this is a mistake?
00:59:49The ice agents weren't real they were hired by Adrian and Lisa to kidnap Clara
00:59:53I
01:00:01Need to find out where they took them. He's all our contacts. I'm not gonna let them get away with this
01:00:14Well, well, well
01:00:17You expect to see me again did you we finally have what it takes to get it all back me like that you disgust me
01:00:30Jess we need to talk. I don't want to talk to you. It's about your mom
01:00:34I think she was kidnapped by Adrian Elise's people the ice agents weren't real
01:00:39What are you talking about? I spoke to Ted. He told me that Clara legally came into the country. It was a setup
01:00:46Do you actually expect me to believe that after all the lies? You're so full of shit Daniel
01:00:58Hello bastard child
01:01:00Yes, we have your mother and if you ever want to see her again follow the direction to the address

01:02:30Oh
01:03:01Daniel
01:03:06Jess
01:03:09Don't try and talk the police there, but they're on their way. Yes. I'm so sorry
01:03:26The doctor said it was nothing serious so you'll be out of here soon
01:03:31Jess, I just want to apologize. I am so sorry
01:03:35Daniel, what are you apologizing for?
01:03:38You saved my mom you saved us
01:03:42Hello again, mr. Thornton officer you're here. Yes, you promised me last week we get that interview done
01:03:51Officer my husband is injured. He's literally lying in bed. Well, that doesn't change the requirements
01:03:58Just it's okay
01:04:00We can do the interview
01:04:05We can do the interview
01:04:08Are you insane we haven't rehearsed this
01:04:12Jess, hmm, but you see we've been rehearsing this whole Christmas. There's no better time to do this. You're right
01:04:21We're ready officer
01:04:23Let's start with the question. I asked you last week. When did you two first meet five years and four months ago?
01:04:29I don't understand
01:04:31Last time you said it was six months ago. When the other one said it was eight months ago. We lied officer
01:04:37But it was five years ago
01:04:40At a pool party and we had our first kiss when we first met
01:04:46It sounds pretty far-fetched but for some reason I want to give you two the benefit of the doubt
01:04:54It sounds pretty far-fetched
01:04:57But for some reason I want to give you two the benefit of the doubt
01:05:02Daniel risked his life to save me and my mother. There's nothing more that he needs to do to prove his love for me
01:05:08one last question
01:05:10How frequently have you two spend the night together in the past week?
01:05:19Relax I can tell it's been at least three times
01:05:23Right, well, that's my interview done you two are quite the couple. Thank you officer
01:05:30Daniel she's coming. Who's coming?
01:05:39Your fiance that's who
01:05:45Your fiance that's who
01:05:48Ashley
01:05:49Yes, I'm not done yet. You betrayed my family's trust Daniel
01:05:54Ashley
01:05:55Please can't we talk about this? So you're Jessica Miller, huh?
01:06:01Agents told me all about you. I don't know what Adrian told you but it's not what you think
01:06:07Daniel was supposed to marry me and then you just waltzed in and ruined everything Ashley
01:06:14Our engagement was long over before Jessica came to the picture. Oh
01:06:20I see you think this is over
01:06:25I'm the heiress of the Wimbledon family. The Thornton name is as good as ruined
01:06:33You can't do that, Ashley
01:06:38Watch me
01:06:41You're not the only heiress here I
01:06:48Own Miller Empire and if you come through the Thornton's
01:06:54The Miller Empire is gonna come for you. So
01:06:58hard
01:07:01You've got guts Jessica I like you
01:07:05I
01:07:08Gotta tell you I didn't expect that
01:07:12Glad to see you've replaced me with someone with a little fire Daniel I
01:07:20Always knew Daniel didn't love me, but he was too afraid of his father to ever go after his true love
01:07:28But I guess I'm happy
01:07:31That he's found someone who wants the same things as him
01:07:35So
01:07:38That's it
01:07:40That's it
01:07:44Enjoy your happy ending
01:07:49Andrea bring the car around
01:07:54Did that actually just happen
01:07:56Yeah
01:07:57Wow
01:07:58You two really don't let anyone or anything get in the way of true love
01:08:03You see that
01:08:07This is all your fault mom if you wouldn't have been so reckless
01:08:09Maybe we wouldn't be in this mess. Don't put all the blame on me
01:08:12You're just as much a part of this as I am. Where is it?
01:08:17Miss me
01:08:18Where have you been? Just tying up a few loose ends. Don't worry about it. Everything's going according to plan plan
01:08:25What plan everything's falling apart?
01:08:33Oh
01:08:37What did you do Adrian
01:08:39Well me myself. I've done nothing illegal
01:08:42You two on the other hand
01:08:44That's a different story. You said I'm just ensuring my own safety
01:08:50After all I kept my hands clean
01:08:57You're gonna get away with this asshole I already have
01:09:03I
01:09:07Remember when this place was filled with warmth and laughter used to be a real family home back then
01:09:14Then things just went south
01:09:16Things will be fine again. I promise we'll turn this into a good family house. No more hatred
01:09:22No more backstabbing. I missed you every single day Jess. I'm so sorry for everything both of us had to go through
01:09:32Jessica
01:09:35I am so sorry
01:09:38Everything I've done to you both. I was wrong and I know I can never fully make up for it
01:09:44But I want to try James. You kept us apart for so many years
01:09:48It's gonna be hard to forgive and forget. I know
01:09:55Jess you're right
01:09:58I'm
01:10:00Fine
01:10:06Have you been getting any other symptoms like dizziness or fatigue
01:10:16Sweetheart you're pregnant. Really? You're showing all the signs Jess
01:10:24We're gonna have a baby
01:10:27Wait, that means I'm gonna be a grandpa
01:10:31Yeah
01:10:39Daniel
01:10:42Something you need to do
01:10:45What's this this is a ring your grandma left
01:10:49And I think this is the perfect time to use
01:10:58Oh
01:11:05Jess Jess
01:11:10Yes, I know we've only ever spent time together a week during Christmas and we've been through so much
01:11:15In that time and over the past five years. All I've wanted to do is be with you
01:11:20And I've had to endure the pain of that not being possible
01:11:22I want to spend every waking moment in time with you. What I'm trying to say is Jess
01:11:31Will you marry me
01:11:34For real this time
01:11:37Yes
01:11:52You
