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.
00:00:21We're rich! Let me hold on to you, before you baby.
00:00:30You know, my whole life, I grew up in foster care, moving from place to place, and now
00:00:38I finally have a place that I can call home. It must feel great to win the jackpot.
00:00:43No, my only wish is to reunite with my mother. You bastard child! You will never reunite
00:00:51with your mother. We made sure that that whore is gone forever.
00:00:55My mother is gone because of you? Well, we had a little help from James Thornton,
00:01:01the most powerful man in the Thornton family. Time for you to go back to your poor little
00:01:06country, sis. Yes, ma'am. U.S.C.I.S. Your visa expired
00:01:11years ago. You're being deported. What? No, there must be some mistake here. Adrian,
00:01:15didn't you help me file my immigration paperwork? Whoops. I guess I screwed up.
00:01:23Hey, baby. Adrian, are you cheating on me? With her?
00:01:29Choose the right side, babe. You'll never win against them.
00:01:32That's true. Um, according to the terms of the will, non-citizens
00:01:37are not eligible to inherit the estate. Everything will pass through your next of kin, Lisa and
00:01:43Kristen Miller. You thought you could get rich overnight?
00:01:48Keep dreaming. Seriously? Bon voyage, have sis.
00:01:59The boss is urgent. They're about to deport a woman named Jessica Miller.
00:02:04Jessica Miller? It's her.
00:02:10Oh, thank God you're alive. She's so beautiful and kind. The girl I've
00:02:19always dreamed of. She saved my life once. I owe her.
00:02:28Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait. Jessica? Do I know you?
00:02:32She doesn't remember me.
00:02:39I'm Daniel. You're a lawyer. Just pretend we know each other. I can get you out of here.
00:02:44I've spoken to the judge, and Miss Miller should be released immediately.
00:02:48We can't deport her. She is about to marry a U.S. citizen.
00:02:54Who's the lucky guy? I am. I'll marry her.
00:03:01A fake marriage won't save her. Our marriage is real.
00:03:07Yeah, 100% real. Prove it then.
00:03:17That's it? You call that a kiss?
00:03:31Need more proof, officer? Look, this guy is a lawyer to some of the most important families in town.
00:03:38And if you don't let her go, then he'll make sure you lose your damn job.
00:03:42Fine, you can have her. Thank you, officer.
00:03:49Guys, I think we're good. It's not over.
00:03:55We'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, thank you for the rescue.
00:04:18Oh, it's no problem.
00:04:22But, um, Daniel, would you marry me?
00:04:28Oh, Jessica, I've waited for this moment for five years.
00:04:32I mean, it would only be a contract marriage.
00:04:36But once I get my green card, I'll inherit my father's business empire and I'll share half of it with you.
00:04:44Even your misunderstanding looks so cute. I only want you, Jessica.
00:04:48But before I get my green card, you're going to have to help me deal with my stepsister and her mom.
00:04:55They're trying to get rid of me. And they've already stolen my fortune.
00:04:59And they made my mother disappear.
00:05:04Deal.
00:05:05What? That's it?
00:05:10This lily stands for loyalties and new beginnings.
00:05:14Something that I want with you.
00:05:17Well, I know it's rushed.
00:05:20But I promise you, I will buy you a proper ring soon.
00:05:33From now on, let's make every Christmas our own.
00:05:36Fill it full of memories.
00:05:48You can't do this!
00:05:51Jess, it's okay. Just wait here. I'll handle it.
00:05:59What?
00:06:01Why are you helping that girl? Kristen Miller is our ally.
00:06:05And she wants her the hell out of this picture.
00:06:08Too late, Dad. We already got married.
00:06:10Are you insane? Did you forget you're supposed to marry Ashley?
00:06:17Daniel Thornton.
00:06:19My mother is gone because of you?
00:06:22Well, we had a little help from James Thornton.
00:06:25The most powerful man in the Thornton family.
00:06:29Wait. I recognize that face.
00:06:32From the newspaper. That was James Thornton.
00:06:35From the Thornton family. The family responsible for my mother's disappearance.
00:06:43Stop telling me what I can and cannot do.
00:06:45She saved my life. I owe it to her.
00:06:47Roll the hell up, Daniel.
00:06:49You need to remember your position as the heir to our family.
00:06:53And you need to divorce that girl. Now.
00:06:56I'm doing this to clean your mess up.
00:06:58Just leave us alone.
00:07:07Sorry about that.
00:07:09Is your name Daniel Thornton?
00:07:13Yeah.
00:07:16The Thornton family are responsible for the disappearance of my mother.
00:07:20I have been searching for her my entire life.
00:07:24Jess.
00:07:26I can explain.
00:07:27I'm not married.
00:07:28Wait, wait, wait. Jess, Jess.
00:07:30I'm not who you think I am.
00:07:32I have nothing to do with that family.
00:07:33Oh, really? Because your name is right here on the marriage certificate.
00:07:38I share the last name as Thornton, but I am not one of them.
00:07:42Thornton is a common name. Just an ordinary guy.
00:07:45Really? Well, I don't believe you.
00:07:46I saw you talking to James Thornton.
00:07:49Is he your father?
00:07:53Is he your father?
00:07:54No, he's not my father.
00:07:56He was threatening to drive you out of the country, and I was not going to have anything to do with it.
00:07:59Jess, I'm on your side.
00:08:02You're not one of them. I'm sorry.
00:08:08It's okay. Don't worry about it.
00:08:13Well, you have a nice apartment.
00:08:17Well...
00:08:19Is that your Labrador?
00:08:21It looks exactly like mine.
00:08:23I got mine as a Christmas present when I was nine.
00:08:25No way. I got mine as a Christmas present when I was nine.
00:08:28That's crazy.
00:08:33Jess, we're going to have to sleep in the same room together just in case immigration ambush us.
00:08:38Yeah, but are you sure you're okay sleeping on the carpet?
00:08:41I mean, you've done so much for me already, and I just...
00:08:44Jess, please, I insist. We made a deal, remember?
00:08:48I also want to thank you for giving me the chance to get rich.
00:08:54It's okay, Daniel.
00:09:11Jess?
00:09:28Is she spying on us?
00:09:30No. No, no, no, no. I was just passing by and just...
00:09:36Do you need anything?
00:09:38I was joking. Yeah, could you pass me the towel that's just hanging up next to the door?
00:09:45Yeah, sure, sure.
00:09:50Thanks.
00:10:01Oh my God. I just got fired.
00:10:03What?
00:10:06Wait, Jess, let me go with you.
00:10:12Yeah.
00:10:23Sam, please, don't fire me.
00:10:25I'm sorry, Jess, but your immigration issue put us in a tough spot.
00:10:31I worked for this company for years.
00:10:34I'm sorry, Jess. There's nothing I can do.
00:10:39I'm sorry.
00:10:45Look who's here. Someone who just got fired.
00:10:50This suits you.
00:10:54It was you. I should have known you were behind this.
00:10:58I'm not going to let you stay here and ruin things. I'm going to take away everything you have.
00:11:02What can you have, sister?
00:11:08You just made a big mistake, sir.
00:11:10Who are you?
00:11:11My name is Daniel Thornton, son of James Thornton, chairman of Thornton Enterprise.
00:11:18Oh, Mr. Thornton, welcome. What brings you here?
00:11:26Well, I have some good news for you.
00:11:29Jessica Miller, she's just closed a billion-dollar deal.
00:11:34Take a look.
00:11:45Oh, my God.
00:11:51It's real.
00:11:53Absolutely. With her hard work and dedication, she's made this possible.
00:11:58It's a real shame you're going to lose such a valuable employee.
00:12:01Oh, Mr. Thornton, I have made a huge mistake. Jessica will stay.
00:12:11Good. And make sure nobody knows we had this conversation.
00:12:21Jessica! You should have told me!
00:12:28What are you talking about, Sam?
00:12:30Jessica, you secured a huge deal for the company. Thank you.
00:12:35Did you not just fire her?
00:12:37I changed my mind. Jessica's staying. Actually, she's being promoted to sales manager.
00:12:46Can't afford to lose someone as valuable as like her.
00:12:49Great. Thanks, Sam.
00:12:53This is not over.
00:12:59I can't believe it. Jessica kept her job, and she gets promoted.
00:13:03Don't worry, Lisa. I just spoke with James Thornton, and he had the lawyer change the will in our favor.
00:13:10Jessica will get nothing.
00:13:12Oh, my God. That's fantastic.
00:13:17No way.
00:13:25Jessica, how's work? Did you get your job back?
00:13:29Daniel, I need a lawyer.
00:13:34Well, look who decided to show up.
00:13:38Too bad for you, Jess. Turns out Daddy's will left you nothing.
00:13:42I knew all along Robert wouldn't leave anything for this little, pathetic, bastard child.
00:13:50You are out of luck.
00:13:52I'm sorry.
00:13:54I'm sorry.
00:13:56I'm sorry.
00:13:58I'm sorry.
00:14:00Bastard child. You are out of luck.
00:14:03Well, that's a lie. You showed me the will, and I signed the documents.
00:14:09I'm sorry, Jessica. I've just discovered a revised will that supports Kristen and Lisa's claims.
00:14:19Who is this?
00:14:21He's my lawyer, and a damn good one.
00:14:24Oh. You know, Jess, I didn't realize you had enough money to pay for a fancy little lawyer.
00:14:29You sleep with him?
00:14:32Patrick, can I have a word with you outside?
00:14:35Talk all you want. It won't change anything.
00:14:46All right, Patrick. I'm gonna keep this short and sweet.
00:14:49I know you changed the will to favor Kristen and Lisa.
00:14:52I know what you're talking about, Mr. Thornton. The revised will's solid.
00:14:56Ted found an e-mail exchange with my father. Here, take a look.
00:15:01You've been caught, Patrick.
00:15:03Honor of the will, I'll report you to the Bar Association.
00:15:06You'll lose your license and any chance of practicing law or gain.
00:15:09That goes against your father's wishes. You don't understand the position he put me in.
00:15:13I'll deal with my father. Don't you worry about that.
00:15:17You just worry about doing the right thing.
00:15:21Um, this revised will's a fake. The original will's stamped.
00:15:26What the hell are you doing?
00:15:28He's doing the right thing.
00:15:31Jessica, you've gotten your inheritance back. Congratulations.
00:15:36Oh, my God.
00:15:39Patrick, do what you are supposed to do,
00:15:42or James will make sure you face the consequences.
00:15:50Don't listen to her, Patrick. I'll deal with James Thornton.
00:15:53Who the hell do you think you are?
00:15:56James Thornton is one of the most powerful men in this town.
00:16:00I sure can. Isn't that right, Patrick?
00:16:03Yes. The original will stands.
00:16:06No, you are crazy.
00:16:08No, I'm not. According to the original will, Jessica stands to inherit this mansion.
00:16:13Kristen, you're out.
00:16:15I think you two should leave.
00:16:17You homewrecker, just like your mother.
00:16:21I will not allow violence.
00:16:24I didn't come here to argue over a house and assets.
00:16:29I came here to be recognized as an actual member of this family.
00:16:33Yeah, well, it's easy for you to say you're getting everything.
00:16:35You don't know how lucky you are, Lisa.
00:16:38You grew up with a father who loved you.
00:16:40I had none.
00:16:41And you took my mother away from me, and I still don't know where she is.
00:16:47You two don't deserve this mansion.
00:16:50And I would rather give it away to a charity than see the two of you living in it.
00:17:02You two should pack your things up. You have one week to leave this house.
00:17:12What the hell were you thinking?
00:17:14Sabotaging my plan?
00:17:16I was just doing the right thing.
00:17:18The right thing? Going against me?
00:17:21Kristen Miller has got no power anymore.
00:17:24Her game is over.
00:17:25I'm sure you didn't come all this way just 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.
00:17:41What's in it for me?
00:17:43Once Jessica gets her mom back, I'll do whatever you want.
00:17:47Whatever I want?
00:17:49Like what exactly?
00:17:51I'll marry Ashley.
00:17:54You'll marry Ashley?
00:17:56Yeah.
00:17:57You're willing to do that?
00:17:59Yeah, I am.
00:18:02But only if she's reunited with her mother.
00:18:06Okay, deal.
00:18:09I'll make the arrangements.
00:18:11So you're really in love with this one, huh?
00:18:13Yeah.
00:18:15I am.
00:18:18I sure hope she's worth it.
00:18:20She is.
00:18:25What's wrong?
00:18:27We have a guest.
00:18:31Mr. Thornton.
00:18:33Good to see you again.
00:18:35Interview time.
00:18:38When did you two meet?
00:18:40Uh, we met at a friend's party two years ago.
00:18:44What do you say, Jessica?
00:18:46Huh?
00:18:48Oh, yeah, yeah.
00:18:50Interesting.
00:18:52And when did you decide to get married?
00:18:54Eight months ago.
00:18:56Six months or eight months, which one is it?
00:18:59Yeah, eight months ago.
00:19:00Sorry, I just...
00:19:02Sorry, I'm always getting mixed up.
00:19:04Sure.
00:19:06Easy mistake to make.
00:19:08And what's your anniversary date?
00:19:10March 15th.
00:19:12March 15th?
00:19:14All right.
00:19:19Uh, that's it?
00:19:21Yes, Mr. Thornton.
00:19:23I have everything I need.
00:19:25I'll report back to the judges.
00:19:29Oh, wait.
00:19:31This.
00:19:34How did we do in there?
00:19:38It was pretty bad.
00:19:41Look,
00:19:44I'm the son of James Thornton.
00:19:46I know who you are.
00:19:48Okay.
00:19:52You want to bribe me?
00:19:54Yes.
00:19:56I can't be bribed.
00:19:58Here's one million dollars.
00:20:03Two million dollars.
00:20:05Right.
00:20:09Three million dollars.
00:20:12It's tempting, but like I said, you can't bribe me.
00:20:15Please.
00:20:17Can you just give us one more week to prepare?
00:20:19I really want to be with this woman.
00:20:21She means the world to me.
00:20:23She saved my life.
00:20:25I'm not going to take your money, but I'll give you one week.
00:20:27Make it count.
00:20:31This time, I want to see some genuine affection between you two.
00:20:33Yeah.
00:20:35If anything seems a bit off, your game's up.
00:20:37Of course.
00:20:39And one more thing.
00:20:41I can tell you two haven't had sex yet.
00:20:43I'm that good, Mr. Daniel.
00:20:45Don't try and fool me.
00:20:52She gave us another chance.
00:20:54Oh, thank God.
00:20:56We have one week to get our story straight.
00:21:01You've been very, very helpful today.
00:21:19Now, I wanted to make our first Christmas special,
00:21:22so I did a little digging and I found this.
00:21:26This tree is amazing.
00:21:31What happened?
00:21:35Let me have a look.
00:22:01Um...
00:22:03I have a...
00:22:07festive gift for you two.
00:22:16Wow.
00:22:18Jess, you look gorgeous.
00:22:25And then I told him that's not true.
00:22:28And then I told him that's not how you negotiate.
00:22:31You did it.
00:22:33I did.
00:22:58I did.
00:23:16This could be wrong.
00:23:18Maybe.
00:23:20Maybe not.
00:23:29So, that...
00:23:31is how you negotiate.
00:23:34You're a learning fan.
00:23:48You're stuck.
00:23:50Hold on.
00:23:52Hold on.
00:23:54Hold on.
00:23:56You're stuck.
00:23:58Hold on. I got this.
00:24:00Oh.
00:24:26Okay.
00:24:56What watch looks familiar?
00:25:00No, I've seen this before.
00:25:02In a magazine.
00:25:04That looks like one of those, um...
00:25:08Fanta and Penelope
00:25:10watches.
00:25:12Is it real?
00:25:14No.
00:25:16It's fake.
00:25:20You wear a fake watch?
00:25:22Yeah.
00:25:26It's fake.
00:25:33I'm so happy, Jess.
00:25:39There's also something I need to tell you about your mom.
00:25:47Yes.
00:25:57Oh, my God.
00:25:59Did I just sleep with Daniel last night?
00:26:02I told him it would only be a contract marriage.
00:26:13Morning.
00:26:15This is the most beautiful morning that I've ever had.
00:26:17Daniel, I'm...
00:26:19I'm so sorry about last night.
00:26:22It was...
00:26:24It wasn't supposed to happen,
00:26:26and I promise it will never happen again.
00:26:30She didn't mean it.
00:26:32Oh, Jessica, last night was amazing.
00:26:35Uh...
00:26:37Yeah, Jess, uh...
00:26:39I get it.
00:26:41It was, uh...
00:26:43It was a one-time thing.
00:26:45Yeah, just like...
00:26:47Just a one-time thing.
00:26:49Yeah.
00:26:51Anyway, it's, uh...
00:26:53You're a big day today.
00:26:55You're the new CEO of the Miller Empire.
00:26:59Thank you for the reminder.
00:27:04Now that you mention it, I'm really scared.
00:27:07Oh, no, Jess, I didn't mean it like that.
00:27:10Uh...
00:27:12What I was meant to say is...
00:27:15I'm gonna help.
00:27:18I don't know what to do, Mother.
00:27:20That bitch is kicking us out.
00:27:22We still have a chance.
00:27:24That bastard child needs a unanimous vote from the board
00:27:27to be chosen as the next CEO.
00:27:30So 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 vote for her.
00:27:39You should not dig up all the dirt I can find on her.
00:27:42You go, girl.
00:27:44You go, girl.
00:27:55These clothes are beautiful,
00:27:59but, uh...
00:28:01very expensive.
00:28:03Like this one. That is...
00:28:06$9,000.
00:28:08Jess, don't worry about it.
00:28:10It's on me.
00:28:12Look at it as, uh...
00:28:14my first gift to my wife.
00:28:16No, Daniel, I can't let you pay for this.
00:28:19Look, Jess, you're gonna be a CEO,
00:28:21which means you've got to look the part.
00:28:23Trust me. It's an investment.
00:28:27Mr. Thornton, welcome back.
00:28:29How can I assist you today?
00:28:31You come here a lot?
00:28:33Well, of course. Mr. Thornton owns this store.
00:28:36Uh, Jess, why don't you try this one on?
00:28:40You'll look great in it.
00:28:45Wow, Jess, you look amazing.
00:28:49You think so?
00:28:51Yeah.
00:28:53This is exactly what a CEO would wear.
00:28:55Absolutely. Great choice.
00:28:57We'll take this one.
00:29:00Something on your mind?
00:29:02Well, it's probably nothing,
00:29:04but it's just that clerk seemed very fond of you.
00:29:08No, uh...
00:29:10being friendly is a part of my job.
00:29:12Okay.
00:29:19So that's how you got your lawyer, huh?
00:29:23Now that you mention it,
00:29:25maybe she was a little friendly.
00:29:27But we got a discount.
00:29:30Show-off.
00:29:38What a slut.
00:29:44Trust me, Jess. You can do this.
00:29:46Yeah, but what if they don't accept me?
00:29:48They will. Trust me.
00:29:50Just speak from the heart and show your true self.
00:29:54Look at you two little lovebirds.
00:29:58Pathetic.
00:30:02Ted, let me talk about this a little.
00:30:04Okay.
00:30:07You go in. I'll meet you in there soon, okay?
00:30:16Good luck in there, sis.
00:30:19You're gonna need it.
00:30:21You don't have the votes.
00:30:25I know my background doesn't seem very typical of a CEO,
00:30:29but I built myself from the bottom up here.
00:30:32Miller Corporation is a leader in tech and services,
00:30:38reaching industries from healthcare to energy.
00:30:41We have over 10,000 employees worldwide
00:30:46who have worked hard to build this company from the ground up,
00:30:50and I was one of them. I know them.
00:30:53And I believe that I can help lead this company
00:30:56to become everyone's company.
00:30:58Let's proceed to the vote.
00:31:00All in favor?
00:31:05Robert lost his damn mind.
00:31:07He picked his secret child to be the CEO
00:31:10only because of his guilty conscience.
00:31:12Richard, if I may...
00:31:14I'm not done talking. You can't lead us.
00:31:17And you're not getting my vote.
00:31:21Richard, if I may speak...
00:31:23Go ahead, but I won't change my mind.
00:31:26Sorry for interrupting, everyone,
00:31:28but I have something important to share with you all today.
00:31:31Who the hell are you?
00:31:33Well, Richard, I'm the person who's going to expose you.
00:31:36What did you just say?
00:31:38How do I say this?
00:31:40Uh, you're a sex pervert.
00:31:43What?
00:31:46You see, everyone, this file
00:31:50contains multiple sexual harassment lawsuits
00:31:53against Richard over the past 30 years.
00:31:57Some of them also have ongoing lawsuits.
00:32:00They're all just allegations, and they've all been settled.
00:32:03I'm innocent.
00:32:04They've also got in contact with some of the victims,
00:32:06and they're willing to come forward and testify.
00:32:08Actually, I have not finished yet.
00:32:10You're also stealing money from the company,
00:32:13and we have the financial records to prove it.
00:32:17The evidence is clear.
00:32:19He's guilty.
00:32:21Okay, then, let's all vote
00:32:23for Richard Donnell's immediate suspension.
00:32:26All in favor?
00:32:32We have 15 votes.
00:32:34The board has decided
00:32:36Richard Donnell is officially removed from his position.
00:32:39We have 15 votes.
00:32:41The board has decided
00:32:43Richard Donnell is officially removed from his position.
00:32:46Security, escort him out immediately.
00:32:49I know my way.
00:32:55And all in favor of appointing
00:32:58Jessica Miller as the new CEO.
00:33:09Okay.
00:33:16I'm sorry I was late.
00:33:18I had to make sure I had enough evidence to mail.
00:33:20No, don't be sorry, Daniel.
00:33:22That was so worth the wait.
00:33:24Good.
00:33:26This is not over.
00:33:28You'll see.
00:33:29How's packing going, Lisa?
00:33:31You're about to be evicted soon.
00:33:33Bye-bye.
00:33:36She won again, that bitch.
00:33:39I know. It's so unfair.
00:33:41Do we have a guest?
00:33:43Lisa, honey, I've been trying to reach you.
00:33:46Why haven't you returned my calls?
00:33:48I've been busy.
00:33:50Busy.
00:33:51Dealing with Jessica.
00:33:53How did you know?
00:33:54Oh, I know.
00:33:55And I think I know how to help you take it down.
00:33:58Again.
00:33:59No use to me anymore, Adrian.
00:34:01I only needed you to help me get rid of Jessica.
00:34:05To the new CEO of the Miller Empire.
00:34:10Well, I couldn't have done it without you, Danny.
00:34:13I also have another Christmas surprise for you.
00:34:17Who are you calling?
00:34:21Is it?
00:34:22Yes, Jess.
00:34:23It's your mother, Clara.
00:34:25Oh, my God, Mom!
00:34:27Oh, Jessica, you're a grown woman now.
00:34:30The Miller family threatened to kill you, Jess.
00:34:33I had no option but to vanish.
00:34:37Oh, Mom, it's okay.
00:34:39It's okay.
00:34:40Like, you didn't do anything wrong.
00:34:41I'll bring you back into the country, I promise.
00:34:45Daniel, how did you find her?
00:34:47I have a few powerful friends.
00:34:49They did me a favor.
00:34:51But I'll leave you two alone.
00:35:03Two more, please.
00:35:06Daniel.
00:35:09Adrian.
00:35:10Long time no see, buddy.
00:35:12Oh, my God, how long has it been?
00:35:14Ten years.
00:35:15Ten years!
00:35:16Oh, my God.
00:35:18The last time I must have seen you was, uh, law school.
00:35:22Yep.
00:35:23Go Reds.
00:35:25Go Reds.
00:35:27What are you doing here?
00:35:29Just in town to run some errands.
00:35:31Just thought I'd come here for a quick bite.
00:35:33Nice, man, nice.
00:35:35I saw your date earlier.
00:35:37She looks pretty.
00:35:38Yeah, my wife.
00:35:40Your wife?
00:35:41Yeah, Jess.
00:35:42You're married?
00:35:43Yes.
00:35:44Yeah, you have to introduce me to her.
00:35:46Come on, let's go say hi.
00:35:47Come and say hello.
00:35:48It's good to see you, buddy.
00:35:49Good to see you, too, man.
00:35:51Jess.
00:35:52I wanted you to meet an old friend of mine.
00:35:54Adrian, this is Jess.
00:35:55Jess, this is Adrian.
00:35:57We went to law school together.
00:36:02I don't want to see him.
00:36:08I don't want to see him.
00:36:12You two know each other?
00:36:13Yes, Daniel.
00:36:15I was her first boyfriend.
00:36:20Come on, Jess.
00:36:21Don't you miss me?
00:36:23I don't want to see you anymore.
00:36:25You know you still love me, Jess.
00:36:28No, I don't.
00:36:32I think you should leave, Adrian.
00:36:35Okay, Daniel.
00:36:36Relax.
00:36:37Now.
00:36:43I'm leaving.
00:36:48She knows she's lying.
00:36:53Boss, Adrian Westley now represents the Eastside Christian Method.
00:36:57They want him to pass the word.
00:36:59I should have known.
00:37:01What else?
00:37:02Adrian also knew me, Jessica.
00:37:04Actually, he's the one who sabotaged Jessica's immigration paperwork.
00:37:09It caused all this trouble.
00:37:14That son of a bitch.
00:37:16We need to win this war.
00:37:18Do whatever it takes.
00:37:27Daniel?
00:37:29Sorry.
00:37:30Did I wake you?
00:37:32No, can...
00:37:34Can you join me in bed, please?
00:37:40You sure?
00:37:45I just...
00:37:46I wanted to apologize for earlier.
00:37:50The restaurant.
00:37:53I got a bit carried away.
00:37:55Jess, you don't need to apologize.
00:37:59Adrian's an asshole.
00:38:00He's just trying to do it to get under your skin.
00:38:02I did care for Adrian once.
00:38:06But he just destroyed everything we had.
00:38:09I want you to know that I'm here because of you.
00:38:16And you're the only one who I love.
00:38:21No one else.
00:38:29I love you, too, Jess.
00:38:31And I'm not going anywhere.
00:38:46Good morning, husband.
00:38:48Morning, wife.
00:38:51Are you ready for your big day as the new CEO?
00:38:53Morning, wife.
00:38:56Are you ready for your big day as the new CEO?
00:38:58If only you were with me.
00:39:20You're gonna do great today.
00:39:24Hi.
00:39:29Jess, here's your coffee.
00:39:35What's wrong?
00:39:36Oh, it's just, it's this job.
00:39:38It's all so new to me.
00:39:40Okay, calm down.
00:39:42Remember, you're the CEO, which means you're the boss.
00:39:47Yeah, but I don't know how to be a boss.
00:39:50Hey, Jess.
00:39:52Look at you sitting in the big chair now.
00:39:55Oh, G, I am so happy you're here.
00:39:59Aw.
00:40:01You must be Daniel.
00:40:03Jessica's been talking about you for days.
00:40:07I'm flattered.
00:40:09I really wish you could be here with me, G.
00:40:11It's exhausting.
00:40:12Oh, at least you have a job, Jess.
00:40:14I've been looking for work for the past two months.
00:40:18Jess?
00:40:20Do you like Gianna being here?
00:40:25Of course.
00:40:26We've been besties since forever.
00:40:29Yeah, what kind of question is that?
00:40:31Well, why don't you use your CEO power and hire Gianna?
00:40:38Oh, I don't, I know what you mean.
00:40:40I don't understand.
00:40:42How would you like to come work for me?
00:40:48Of course.
00:40:50Okay, then.
00:40:52My first order as a CEO,
00:40:55Gianna, you are hired as my personal assistant.
00:41:01Oh my God, Jess, thank you so much.
00:41:04See, being a boss is easy.
00:41:07You can do whatever you want.
00:41:10Oh my God.
00:41:12What's wrong?
00:41:13The company's stock prices are dropping like crazy.
00:41:16What is happening?
00:41:18This isn't good.
00:41:20The stock's going down.
00:41:22Well, well, well.
00:41:25Looks like things aren't going so well.
00:41:27What did you do, Lisa?
00:41:29I asked Richard and some of the other investors
00:41:32to sell their stock.
00:41:34I don't understand.
00:41:36I asked Richard and some of the other investors
00:41:39to sell their stocks.
00:41:41The board members are not going to be happy
00:41:43about the stock prices, Jessica.
00:41:45What do you want?
00:41:47Resign as CEO or I will destroy this company.
00:41:51No way.
00:41:53Okay.
00:41:55Then I will destroy this company.
00:41:57Jessica, the board members are asking to meet with you.
00:42:00They're angry.
00:42:06Are you Jess?
00:42:08Okay, I'll meet with the board.
00:42:10Wait, Jess.
00:42:12Don't go. Take a seat.
00:42:15What is it?
00:42:17Lisa, are you sure the stock prices are going down?
00:42:21Because to me, they seem to be going up and up.
00:42:25That's impossible. You would need at least a billion dollars.
00:42:29I guess anything's possible these days.
00:42:32God damn it!
00:42:34God, she's annoying.
00:42:39You must be my lucky star.
00:42:48Daniel.
00:42:51Gianna.
00:42:53I know who you are, Daniel.
00:42:55You're the son of James Thornton.
00:42:57How did you find out?
00:42:59My identity is meant to be a secret.
00:43:01I used to work for your father.
00:43:03I'll pay you. How much do you want?
00:43:05I don't want your money.
00:43:07I care for my friend.
00:43:09Actually, your father fired me because I tried to help Jessica.
00:43:13I'm sorry, Gianna.
00:43:15It's okay.
00:43:17I just want to know why.
00:43:19She hates my family.
00:43:21I have to lie to her.
00:43:23She hates your family, but she loves you.
00:43:27I can see that.
00:43:29You really think so?
00:43:31Yes.
00:43:33I love her, too.
00:43:35She's the best thing that's ever happened to me.
00:43:39That's good to hear.
00:43:41Please protect her.
00:43:50Daniel.
00:43:52It's my mom.
00:43:54Adrian threatened her.
00:43:57Ugh.
00:43:59Adrian threatened my mom on the phone.
00:44:01He said he was going to block her from entering the country.
00:44:05What should we do?
00:44:07Jess, I don't want you to worry about it.
00:44:10I'm going to make sure your mom gets here safely.
00:44:27Ted.
00:44:29I need you to make sure Jessica's mom gets here safely.
00:44:32Book her on the first flight out tomorrow.
00:44:34Got it, boss.
00:44:36She'll be here in town the day after tomorrow.
00:44:38Good.
00:44:45Jess has been taken care of.
00:44:47Your mom's going to be here the day after tomorrow.
00:44:50Thank you, Daniel.
00:44:53But I'm...
00:44:56I'm still scared.
00:44:58I just... I need a day off.
00:45:00I love the sound of that.
00:45:02What did you have in mind?
00:45:04I was thinking...
00:45:08I want to buy a house.
00:45:19So...
00:45:21Do you like this place?
00:45:23It's amazing.
00:45:25But, Jess, I appreciate the gesture.
00:45:28But you don't need to buy me a house.
00:45:31No, no.
00:45:33I insist.
00:45:35You've done so much to help me.
00:45:38Besides, we can live together here.
00:45:41Mr. Thornton.
00:45:42Hi.
00:45:43Your father is here.
00:45:45Are you meeting him here?
00:45:50Well...
00:45:52I've never met your parents,
00:45:54so I'm pretty excited to meet an in-law.
00:45:59Oh, is...
00:46:01Is that him?
00:46:03Come on, let's go say hi.
00:46:05Jess, wait.
00:46:06Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.
00:46:08Um...
00:46:11I might not have told my dad about you and our marriage.
00:46:14Why?
00:46:15Uh...
00:46:17Because he has a heart condition.
00:46:20Okay.
00:46:21I think it's best you stay here.
00:46:23Okay.
00:46:25I'll just...
00:46:27stay here, then.
00:46:30Good.
00:46:35Dad?
00:46:36Come on.
00:46:37Daniel, what the hell?
00:46:39Jessica's here.
00:46:40She can't see her face.
00:46:41Don't take them off.
00:46:44I want to talk to you about Ashley, Daniel.
00:46:50Why hasn't Daniel told his father about me and our wedding?
00:46:53Ashley?
00:46:54Really?
00:46:55Not today.
00:46:58And what is this shirt you're wearing?
00:47:01Your mother insisted I wear it
00:47:03in this charity event in Des Moines.
00:47:05Right.
00:47:06Said it makes me look more grounded...
00:47:10and approachable.
00:47:13And don't go changing our subject.
00:47:15I want to discuss our agreement.
00:47:17I give you Clara,
00:47:19and you marry Ashley.
00:47:25Why does he look so...
00:47:27nervous?
00:47:28Am I not good enough?
00:47:33Do we have to talk about this right now?
00:47:35I held up my end of the bargain, Daniel.
00:47:38I want this deal done now.
00:47:40Actually, Clara isn't safe yet.
00:47:43Lisa Mellon White trying to sabotage everything.
00:47:46This is why you don't mess with the Mill family.
00:47:49You should have left it alone.
00:47:51All I'm asking is just a few more days.
00:47:53Ashley is coming to town in a few days.
00:47:56What?
00:47:58Jess!
00:47:59Jess.
00:48:09Dad, this is Jess.
00:48:11Jess, this is Dad.
00:48:13You can call him Jimmy.
00:48:15Jimmy?
00:48:19I'm Jimmy, sweetie.
00:48:20It's lovely to meet you, Jimmy.
00:48:22And can I just say,
00:48:24that is a lovely Hawaiian shirt.
00:48:26It really, really suits you.
00:48:28Well, thank you, Jessica.
00:48:30It's one I'm fond of.
00:48:34So, who is Ashley?
00:48:37I heard you guys talking about her earlier.
00:48:39Oh.
00:48:40She's just a...
00:48:42old family friend.
00:48:45They grew up and went to law school together.
00:48:47Oh.
00:48:48And she had Daniel's first kiss.
00:48:51Oh.
00:48:53Her wedding is approaching soon,
00:48:55and I'd like Daniel to attend.
00:48:58Dad!
00:48:59Reminiscing about the good old days.
00:49:01No, it's fine, honestly.
00:49:03It's lovely to hear about Daniel's childhood
00:49:05and more about his life.
00:49:07You bastard child!
00:49:09Shh.
00:49:14Well, well.
00:49:16What do we have here?
00:49:18You think you can afford this place?
00:49:21You're about to lose this battle
00:49:23and be out on the streets soon.
00:49:26Who's this clown?
00:49:30Looks like he belongs in a circus.
00:49:32How dare you, Kristen!
00:49:34How do you know my name?
00:49:36And don't you dare call me by my first name.
00:49:38That's enough!
00:49:41Don't talk to my father like that.
00:49:47He's your father.
00:49:50How does it feel to be a father of such a loser?
00:49:53Don't talk to my family like that.
00:49:56Your family?
00:49:57Your family suck, Jessica.
00:50:00Especially your mother.
00:50:02The home-wrecking tramp.
00:50:05A whore.
00:50:14Your family suck, Jessica.
00:50:17Especially your mother.
00:50:19The home-wrecking tramp.
00:50:22A whore.
00:50:24Damn!
00:50:29How dare you slap me?
00:50:33That is enough, Kristen.
00:50:36You're not going to lay a hand on my wife.
00:50:41Ladies, you need to leave now.
00:50:44You can't throw us out. We're buyers.
00:50:46We're not going anywhere.
00:50:47The owner of this property has banned you from coming here.
00:50:50You need to leave now or I will call security.
00:50:55You will regret this.
00:50:58I've heard that a thousand times.
00:51:01Now leave.
00:51:12Thank you, Jessica.
00:51:14You stood up for me.
00:51:16Well, we're family, Jimmy.
00:51:18It's what I'm supposed to do.
00:51:23Well, I appreciate it.
00:51:26You're a nice girl.
00:51:28You found a good wife, son.
00:51:32Dad, about Ashley's wedding.
00:51:35I don't think I'm going to be able to make it.
00:51:37I'll look into it. I'll speak to her about it.
00:51:40Oh, no, no, no, no.
00:51:42Daniel can still attend. It's not a problem.
00:51:45Jess, I just want to focus on you and I.
00:51:48I'm not the jealous type.
00:51:50Plus, I don't want you to miss your first crush's wedding.
00:51:54Well, you decide, Daniel.
00:51:57Oh, there's a lawn party.
00:51:59You two want to come? It's in three hours.
00:52:03Yeah. Dad, we'll go.
00:52:06Great. I'll see you there.
00:52:20Well, this place is extremely high class.
00:52:24Well, my dad has a few rich friends.
00:52:31And James Thornton is here.
00:52:34I know you don't want to see him.
00:52:37But Jess, my dad's here. He's going to join us later.
00:52:41Okay.
00:52:43The bidding's about to start.
00:52:49Oh, the bitch is here!
00:52:51I know. Don't worry. We can teach him a lesson.
00:52:54Yeah, how?
00:52:55Let's see if Daniel can handle a little humiliation.
00:52:59With money.
00:53:01Here with money? What money? I haven't gotten my inheritance back yet.
00:53:04Yeah, I know. Your mother spoke to Richard.
00:53:06He said he's willing to donate us some cash if we make Jessica look ugly.
00:53:13You're the best.
00:53:16I know.
00:53:22Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to this evening's auction.
00:53:25We have for you the last dance.
00:53:28Bid starts at one million dollars.
00:53:34One million dollars!
00:53:38Two million dollars, right here.
00:53:43Three million dollars!
00:53:47Four million dollars!
00:53:50What are they doing? Where did they get that money from?
00:53:53I don't know, but they're definitely trying to humiliate you here.
00:53:56Really? But I don't even care about this bid.
00:54:00Five million dollars!
00:54:02Daniel, what are you doing?
00:54:04Don't worry, Jess. I've got this.
00:54:09Five million dollars!
00:54:11Daniel, what are you doing?
00:54:13Don't worry, Jess. I've got this.
00:54:15I got six million dollars.
00:54:18Cash.
00:54:19Boom.
00:54:21Can't compete with that.
00:54:23Watch this.
00:54:25Seven million dollars!
00:54:28Eight million dollars!
00:54:31Did that just happen?
00:54:32Ten million dollars!
00:54:36Awesome.
00:54:38Ten million. Once, twice, sold.
00:54:43There's a gentleman there.
00:54:52Where did you get that money from?
00:54:54Well, do you remember me telling you about I have a powerful friend?
00:54:59Yeah, the one who helped me find my mother.
00:55:03Jessica.
00:55:04James Thornton.
00:55:07In the flesh. Or Mrs. Thornton.
00:55:10I want to apologize to you.
00:55:12I am truly sorry for everything I did to you and your mother.
00:55:17But I'm trying my best to make amends.
00:55:20Well, I don't know what to say.
00:55:24Jess, I know it's a lot to handle, but you've just got to trust me.
00:55:27Yeah, but why didn't you just tell me in the first place, Daniel?
00:55:30Jess!
00:55:32Jessica!
00:55:33Don't follow me!
00:55:36Oh, this could get interesting.
00:55:50Oh, look who's alone.
00:55:55No, just leave me alone.
00:55:57You're never going to win against James Thornton. He's my mother's best friend.
00:56:01You're going to lose everything.
00:56:03Poor babe. Still played by the big boys.
00:56:06James Thornton and his son have been playing you all along.
00:56:10Wait, what did you just say? James Thornton and his son?
00:56:15Wait, Jess, you didn't know? Daniel Thornton is his son.
00:56:21Oh, my God.
00:56:23I didn't know that. Now that I do.
00:56:25Wow.
00:56:27That's enough!
00:56:29Oh, excuse me, Mr. Thornton.
00:56:32Crown Prince Ed of the Thornton family.
00:56:43This man has been lying to you all along.
00:56:46Poor little girl's got no one to trust.
00:56:49Both of you, get out of here.
00:56:53Okay.
00:56:56Jess, I've been trying to tell you...
00:56:58Am I a joke to you?
00:57:00No. What do you mean?
00:57:02You and your father.
00:57:05You've been playing me this whole time.
00:57:07No. I've been standing by your side all the time, Jess.
00:57:11I can't trust you. You lied to me.
00:57:15You're right. You're right.
00:57:18I have been hiding things from you.
00:57:21You know what I haven't told you yet?
00:57:24Another big secret.
00:57:27Are you sure you want to hear this?
00:57:34The other big secret is...
00:57:36The first time we met, isn't what I think it is.
00:57:40You're lying to me.
00:57:42You're right. You're right.
00:57:45Isn't what I think it is.
00:57:48It was five years ago.
00:57:50Five years ago?
00:57:51Yes.
00:57:53At a party.
00:57:55I was drunk and I fell in a pool.
00:58:06Oh, thank God you're alive.
00:58:10I was drowning and you saved my life.
00:58:13But you won't remember that.
00:58:16But I will forever be grateful for what you did for me that day.
00:58:20Father?
00:58:22That was you?
00:58:23Yes.
00:58:24My father forbid me from seeing you.
00:58:27But I didn't care.
00:58:29I confronted him.
00:58:31You can't tell me what to do, Dad.
00:58:33You can't stop me from seeing her.
00:58:35I'm doing what's best for you, Daniel.
00:58:37That girl and all her family are nothing but trouble.
00:58:42And then he decided to tell me about everything he did to you and your mom.
00:58:45And I felt so guilty.
00:58:47It's okay.
00:58:51I was ashamed to approach you.
00:58:53I just didn't know how to face you without making things worse.
00:58:56And I thought the best thing to do was just leave you alone.
00:58:59Now I know.
00:59:01And then I heard about you being deported and I just couldn't let that happen.
00:59:04Well...
00:59:07I saved you.
00:59:09And you saved me.
00:59:13Because we just belong together.
00:59:19Ew. Corny.
00:59:23But just...
00:59:26No more secrets.
00:59:28Okay?
00:59:30I promise.
00:59:32No more secrets.
00:59:37Okay.
00:59:50You're up early.
00:59:52Yeah.
00:59:53I'm gonna go pick your mom up from the airport.
00:59:55Better sooner than later.
01:00:00Gianna just texted me.
01:00:02She said that I have my first weekly exec meeting this morning.
01:00:07I should postpone it.
01:00:08No.
01:00:09You should definitely go to that.
01:00:11You need to look good in front of your board.
01:00:13Really?
01:00:14Yeah.
01:00:15I'm gonna go pick your mom up from the airport and I'll bring her straight to the office.
01:00:18Thanks.
01:00:19You're the best.
01:00:24Well, that went better than I thought.
01:00:26Don't underestimate yourself, Jess.
01:00:28You did great.
01:00:33Heya, Jess.
01:00:35What are you doing here?
01:00:40What are you doing here?
01:00:42I just wanted to share with you some interesting facts about your dear husband, Daniel Thornton.
01:00:48Gianna, can you wait outside a moment?
01:00:54Okay, I'm telling you now.
01:00:56Whatever bad made-up facts that you've come to tell me about Daniel is only work.
01:01:02Because Daniel already told me everything.
01:01:05Everything?
01:01:06Are you so sure?
01:01:08Yeah.
01:01:09Him and his father came clean about everything.
01:01:11There is nothing more to hide.
01:01:13And did they also tell you Daniel was supposed to marry his childhood sweetheart?
01:01:16What?
01:01:17Ashley Wimbledon.
01:01:19Heiress to the famous Wimbledon family.
01:01:21Ring any bells?
01:01:23Ashley.
01:01:27Ashley.
01:01:29Who is Ashley?
01:01:31I heard you guys talking about her earlier.
01:01:33Oh, she's just an old childhood friend.
01:01:37They grew up and went to law school together.
01:01:40Oh.
01:01:41And she had Daniel's first kiss.
01:01:47He did mention Ashley.
01:01:52He did.
01:01:53Yeah, but he's not gonna marry her.
01:01:55I remember that conversation.
01:02:00Daniel's picking my mother up from the airport himself.
01:02:03I'll be seeing her soon.
01:02:06What are you laughing about?
01:02:12Daniel wants to bring her back, babe.
01:02:15But he's not gonna see her.
01:02:20After years of separation with your mother,
01:02:23Daniel didn't let you go along with him to meet with her?
01:02:26And what kind of a husband does that?
01:02:28I had an early meeting this morning and Daniel didn't want me to worry.
01:02:32So easily manipulated, Jess.
01:02:36Just like old times.
01:02:38Yeah, well, I don't believe a word you say.
01:02:43Daniel isn't gonna bring her back.
01:02:46Care to find out together?
01:02:54Are you sure everything is taken care of?
01:02:57Yes.
01:02:58You're free to live in this country.
01:03:00Clara, I also want to apologize for everything you went through years ago.
01:03:04I'm deeply sorry.
01:03:06Well, you did bring me back here.
01:03:08Right now, I just want to see my daughter.
01:03:10We'll go through.
01:03:12Not so fast, Danny boy.
01:03:17You're too late, Lisa.
01:03:19Clara's here to claim Robert's inheritance back.
01:03:21Oh, I don't think so.
01:03:23Agents, do your thing.
01:03:24Wait.
01:03:25What?
01:03:26This is a mistake.
01:03:27No.
01:03:28Clara's got past customs.
01:03:29She can stay.
01:03:30Sweetheart, you really think those little documents can stop this?
01:03:33I don't think so.
01:03:35Back off, Lisa.
01:03:36Watch it, pretty boy.
01:03:38Jess.
01:03:39Mom!
01:03:40Mom!
01:03:41What are you doing?
01:03:42Where are they taking my mother?
01:03:43Mom, I will bring you back, I promise.
01:03:45Just stay strong.
01:03:47Sis, it looks like you've been screwed by the Thorntons again.
01:03:50Adrian, you sabotaged this.
01:03:52You'll pay for this.
01:03:54See, babe?
01:03:55I told you he's not bringing her back.
01:03:57You said everything was taken care of.
01:03:59Jess, it's not me.
01:04:01It's them.
01:04:02You're lying, Daniel.
01:04:03Why don't you ask him about that thing we talked about?
01:04:05Jess.
01:04:08Jess.
01:04:09He said that you were going to marry Ashley.
01:04:11Okay, so it's true.
01:04:13Jess, can we just talk about this?
01:04:16No.
01:04:17No, no, no, no, no.
01:04:18The thing is, Daniel, you promised me no more secrets.
01:04:21I can't trust you anymore.
01:04:23Jess!
01:04:24It's just...
01:04:25It looks like you lost, Daniel.
01:04:27You'll never get her back.
01:04:48Oh, thank God you're alive.
01:05:18Ted, what's the problem with Clara?
01:05:20Her paperwork was flawless.
01:05:22You're right, boss.
01:05:23I checked with customers in the USCIS.
01:05:25The legal confirms that she illegally entered the country and killed her.
01:05:29That is not...
01:05:33Agents, do your thing.
01:05:35Wait.
01:05:36What?
01:05:37This is a mistake.
01:05:38No.
01:05:39Jess.
01:05:40Jess!
01:05:41Baby!
01:05:42Mom!
01:05:45The ICE agents weren't real.
01:05:47They were hired by Adrian and Lisa to kidnap Clara.
01:05:49Hold on a sec.
01:05:53You're right, boss.
01:05:54We found out those people want her.
01:05:56What should we do?
01:05:58I need to find out where they took them.
01:06:00Use all our contacts.
01:06:02I'm not going to let them get away with this.
01:06:04On it, boss.
01:06:12Well, well, well, Clara.
01:06:15I bet you didn't expect to see me again, did you?
01:06:18We finally have what it takes to get it all back?
01:06:21Don't look at me like that.
01:06:23You disgust me.
01:06:30Jess, we need to talk.
01:06:32I don't want to talk to you.
01:06:33It's about your mom.
01:06:34I think she was kidnapped by Adrian and Lisa's people.
01:06:36The ICE agents weren't real.
01:06:39What are you talking about?
01:06:41I spoke to Ted.
01:06:42He told me that Clara legally came into the country.
01:06:45It was a setup.
01:06:47Do you actually expect me to believe that?
01:06:50After all the lies?
01:06:51You're so full of shit, Daniel!
01:07:00Hello, bastard child.
01:07:02Yes, we have your mother.
01:07:04And if you ever want to see her again,
01:07:06follow the directions to the address that we just sent you.
01:07:09And don't bring anyone.
01:07:10Don't bring anyone.
01:07:11Especially Daniel.
01:07:16Let me come with you.
01:07:17No, they want me alone.
01:07:18I don't want to risk-
01:07:19Jess.
01:07:20Don't follow me.
01:07:21I will not let you do this alone.
01:07:29Mom?
01:07:30Bastard child, over here.
01:07:32Let her go.
01:07:33This has gone on far enough.
01:07:35Not so fast, sis.
01:07:37This is only the beginning.
01:07:41You sign this,
01:07:43we let her go.
01:07:45And what is it?
01:07:47An agreement signing everything over to us.
01:07:50The house,
01:07:51company,
01:07:53everything.
01:08:02It's signed.
01:08:04Now let her go.
01:08:06God, 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.
01:08:17Get down on your knees
01:08:19and show that you know your place.
01:08:22Wait.
01:08:27That's better.
01:08:38Now bark like a dog.
01:08:44Come on.
01:08:49That's enough, Kristen.
01:08:55We're getting out of here, Monk.
01:09:02Let's get her out of here.
01:09:04Come on, let's go.
01:09:06Goddamn!
01:09:09I can't.
01:09:11Mom, we need to finish this.
01:09:12Mom, we gotta go.
01:09:13Come on.
01:09:15Daniel!
01:09:21Jess.
01:09:24Don't try and talk to the police.
01:09:26They're on their way.
01:09:27Jess,
01:09:29I'm so sorry.
01:09:30Why are you apologizing?
01:09:32Just don't move.
01:09:38Jess.
01:09:44The doctor said it was nothing serious,
01:09:46so you'll be out of here soon.
01:09:49Jess, I just want to apologize.
01:09:51I am so sorry.
01:09:53Daniel, what are you apologizing for?
01:09:57You saved my mom.
01:09:58You saved us.
01:10:01Hello again, Mr. Thornton.
01:10:03Officer, you're here.
01:10:05Yes.
01:10:06You promised me last week you'd get that interview done.
01:10:10Officer, my husband is injured.
01:10:13He's literally lying in bed.
01:10:15Well, that doesn't change the requirements.
01:10:18Jess, it's okay.
01:10:21We can do the interview.
01:10:26We can do the interview.
01:10:30Are you insane?
01:10:31We haven't rehearsed this.
01:10:34Jess,
01:10:35when you see we've been rehearsing this whole Christmas,
01:10:39there's no better time to do this.
01:10:41You're right.
01:10:44We're ready, officer.
01:10:46Let's start with the question I asked you last week.
01:10:49When did you two first meet?
01:10:51Five years and four months ago.
01:10:53I don't understand.
01:10:55Last time you said it was six months ago
01:10:58when the other one said it was eight months ago.
01:11:00We lied, officer.
01:11:02But it was five years ago at a pool party.
01:11:06And we had our first kiss when we first met.
01:11:11It sounds pretty far-fetched.
01:11:13But for some reason,
01:11:15I want to give you two the benefit of the doubt.
01:11:21It sounds pretty far-fetched.
01:11:23But for some reason,
01:11:25I want to give you two the benefit of the doubt.
01:11:28Daniel risked his life to save me and my mother.
01:11:32There's nothing more he needs to do to prove his love for me.
01:11:35One last question.
01:11:37How frequently have you two spent the night together in the past week?
01:11:47Relax.
01:11:49I can tell it's been at least three times.
01:11:51Right, well, that's my interview done.
01:11:54You two are quite the couple.
01:11:56Thank you, officer.
01:11:58Daniel.
01:12:00Daniel, she's coming.
01:12:02Who's coming?
01:12:09Your fiancé.
01:12:11That's who.
01:12:16Your fiancé.
01:12:18That's who.
01:12:19Ashley.
01:12:21I guess I'm not done yet.
01:12:23You've betrayed my family's trust, Daniel.
01:12:26Ashley, please.
01:12:29Can't we talk about this?
01:12:31So you're Jessica Miller, huh?
01:12:33Adrian's told me all about you.
01:12:36I don't know what Adrian told you,
01:12:39but it's not what you think.
01:12:41Daniel was supposed to marry me,
01:12:44and then you just waltzed in and ruined everything.
01:12:47Ashley, our engagement was long over
01:12:50before Jessica came into the picture.
01:12:54Oh, I see.
01:12:56You think this is over.
01:12:59I'm the heiress of the Wimbledon family.
01:13:03The Thornton name is as good as ruined.
01:13:07You can't do that, Ashley.
01:13:13Watch me.
01:13:19You're not the only heiress here.
01:13:23Shh.
01:13:25I own Miller Empire,
01:13:28and if you come for the Thorntons,
01:13:31the Miller Empire is gonna come for you
01:13:35so hard.
01:13:40You've got guts, Jessica.
01:13:43I like you.
01:13:47I gotta tell you, I didn't expect that.
01:13:50Is this so much better than watching TV?
01:13:52Glad to see you've replaced me with someone
01:13:54with a little fire, Daniel.
01:14:00I always knew Daniel didn't love me,
01:14:03but he was too afraid of his father
01:14:06to ever go after his true love.
01:14:09But I guess I'm happy
01:14:12that he's found someone who wants the same things as him.
01:14:17So...
01:14:20that's it?
01:14:22That's it.
01:14:26Enjoy your happy ending, darling.
01:14:32Andrea, bring the car around.
01:14:37Did that actually just happen?
01:14:39Yeah.
01:14:41Wow.
01:14:42You two really don't let anyone
01:14:45or anything get in the way of true love.
01:14:48You'll see that too.
01:14:52This is all your fault, Mom.
01:14:53If you wouldn't have been so reckless,
01:14:54then maybe we wouldn't be in this mess.
01:14:56Don't put all the blame on me.
01:14:57You're just as much a part of this as I am.
01:14:59Where is Adrian?
01:15:00He should be here by now.
01:15:03Miss me?
01:15:04Where have you been?
01:15:06Just tying up a few loose ends.
01:15:08Don't worry about it.
01:15:09Everything's going according to plan.
01:15:11Plan?
01:15:12What plan?
01:15:13Everything's falling apart.
01:15:25What did you do, Adrian?
01:15:27Well, me myself?
01:15:28I done nothing illegal.
01:15:30You two on the other hand,
01:15:32that's a different story.
01:15:34You set us up!
01:15:36I'm just ensuring my own safety.
01:15:38After all, I kept my hands clean.
01:15:43Oh!
01:15:46Ow!
01:15:47You're not gonna get away with this, asshole!
01:15:50I already have.
01:15:58I remember when this place was filled with warmth and laughter.
01:16:02Used to be a real family home back then.
01:16:05Then things just went south.
01:16:07Things will be fine again, Mom, I promise.
01:16:10We'll turn this into a good family house.
01:16:13No more hatred.
01:16:15No more backstabbing.
01:16:17I missed you every single day, Jess.
01:16:19I'm so sorry for everything both of us had to go through.
01:16:26Jessica.
01:16:27What?
01:16:29I am so sorry for everything I've done to you both.
01:16:34I was wrong.
01:16:35And I know I can never fully make up for it.
01:16:39But I want to try.
01:16:40James, you kept us apart for so many years.
01:16:43It's gonna be hard to forgive and forget.
01:16:45I know, Clara.
01:16:50Jess, are you alright?
01:16:54Yeah, I know, I'm...
01:16:56I'm fine.
01:16:57I just feel...
01:16:59I just feel nauseous, that's all.
01:17:02Have you been getting any other symptoms,
01:17:04like dizziness or fatigue?
01:17:08Yeah, but I just thought that was from all the stress.
01:17:14Sweetheart, you're pregnant.
01:17:17Really?
01:17:18You're showing all the signs, Jess.
01:17:23We're gonna have a baby.
01:17:25Wait, that means I'm gonna be a grandpa.
01:17:30Yeah.
01:17:38Daniel.
01:17:41There's something you need to do.
01:17:45What's this?
01:17:47This is a ring your grandma left.
01:17:50And I think this is the perfect time to use it.
01:17:54Go get it.
01:17:55I'm gonna do this?
01:17:56Yeah, go.
01:18:07Jess?
01:18:09Jess!
01:18:12Jess, I know we've only ever spent time together
01:18:15a week during Christmas.
01:18:16And we've been through so much in that time.
01:18:19And over the past five years,
01:18:21all I've wanted to do is be with you.
01:18:24And I've had to endure the pain of that not being possible.
01:18:27I want to spend every waking moment in time with you.
01:18:30What I'm trying to say is, Jess...
01:18:34Will you marry me?
01:18:38For real this time?
01:18:40Yes, Daniel. Yes, I will marry you.
01:18:43Yes!
01:18:44Really?
01:18:45Yes!
