00:00:00Charlotte, where are you?
00:00:21The wedding ceremony has already started.
00:00:23Everyone's waiting for you.
00:00:25Why didn't you wake me up?
00:00:27I've been calling you dozens of times all morning.
00:00:30Charlotte, what's going on?
00:00:32Are you okay?
00:00:35I'll be right there.
00:00:49Dear friends and family,
00:00:51we're gathered here today to join Andrew Thompson
00:00:54and Charlotte Cooper in holy matrimony.
00:00:57Where have you been?
00:00:58Is everything okay?
00:01:00There's something I need to tell you.
00:01:05What's wrong, honey?
00:01:09We're gonna be husband and wife.
00:01:11Tell me everything, you know that?
00:01:14Come on, it can't be that bad.
00:01:16Andrew, I slept with someone last night.
00:01:20You cheated on me on our wedding day?
00:01:29I thought it was you.
00:01:36You disgust me.
00:01:41Go home.
00:01:42Wedding's canceled.
00:01:51Oh my God, Dad!
00:01:53Calm down.
00:01:55I swear, I didn't know the man last night wasn't Andrew.
00:01:58Someone had to have set me up.
00:02:00You ruined your engagement,
00:02:01whether it was your fault or not.
00:02:03You know how bad things are?
00:02:04You might have ruined the business deal with the Thompson's.
00:02:07I just lost my chance at lifelong happiness
00:02:10and all you care about is a business deal.
00:02:12Don't get upset at Charlotte.
00:02:13I mean, she's still your daughter.
00:02:15She doesn't-
00:02:15Enough.
00:02:16She's disgraced us for the last time.
00:02:19Charlotte, go get your things.
00:02:21Dad, what are you talking about?
00:02:23Don't call me that.
00:02:24Father-daughter relationship is over as of right now.
00:02:27Go get your things.
00:02:28Go!
00:02:35Sir, I've reviewed the hotel security cameras,
00:02:38but it looks like someone wiped your floor's footage
00:02:41in between 11 p.m. and midnight.
00:02:43Are you trying to say that someone tried to set me up?
00:02:47What about the girl that came in my hotel room
00:02:48last night?
00:02:49Could it have been her?
00:02:50We can't confirm if you were the target, sir.
00:02:52The eldest son of the Thompson family
00:02:53was having his bachelor party at the hotel.
00:02:56Some escorts came and it could have been one of them.
00:03:04Oh, and Charlotte, I totally forgot to tell you something.
00:03:08It was all me, slut.
00:03:11Yes, what are you talking about?
00:03:13Honestly, it was too easy.
00:03:15I just found a drunk stranger at the hotel bar
00:03:18and then I stole his room card
00:03:20and then I accidentally snuck into his room.
00:03:25Oh, I was just wondering if you'd like to prepare me
00:03:27to get out of this thing.
00:03:30How could you do this to me?
00:03:34Because I found another danger,
00:03:37and I'm appealing the laws.
00:03:42Wait, let me out.
00:03:46Over the years, I've been abroad
00:03:48until my father suddenly told me
00:03:50to come back half a month ago.
00:03:52Fortunately, I'm not alone anymore.
00:03:55Roman, how many times have I told you
00:03:57don't wander off without me?
00:04:00Sorry, Mommy.
00:04:02It's okay, I'm not trying to scold you.
00:04:04It's just dangerous wandering off without me, okay?
00:04:07Isn't this our home?
00:04:09This was my home.
00:04:11It's not anymore.
00:04:12You're my only family.
00:04:14Wherever you are, that's home.
00:04:16Will we still get to see Daddy this time?
00:04:19Then we could finally be a real family.
00:04:23If only I knew who he is.
00:04:26Let's go.
00:04:32Excuse me, excuse me, sir, excuse me, ma'am.
00:04:38Hey, what are you doing?
00:04:39We've been waiting here forever.
00:04:40You can't just cut in line.
00:04:41How much do you want?
00:04:44You want money?
00:04:45How much do you want for the cab?
00:04:46500 bucks?
00:04:47Are you serious?
00:04:48You want a thousand?
00:04:50Here you go.
00:04:51Take the money and scrap.
00:04:57Are you kidding me?
00:05:00Are you kidding me?
00:05:01Let me go.
00:05:02Don't disrespect me like that.
00:05:03That's my money.
00:05:05Daddy.
00:05:06I'm not your dad, kid, okay?
00:05:07Get out of the way.
00:05:08Roman, come on, let's go.
00:05:10See you later, Dad.
00:05:12Go, please.
00:05:14I want you to find out as much as you can about that girl.
00:05:17Yes, sir.
00:05:20Hold that cab.
00:05:32Andrew?
00:05:33Charlotte.
00:05:35It's been a while.
00:05:38You've changed a lot.
00:05:39What are you doing here?
00:05:42Honey, who is it?
00:05:44Oh my God, Charlotte, you're here.
00:05:47Good, after all these years,
00:05:49you finally decided to show up.
00:05:51I missed you so much.
00:05:54Wait, who's the kid?
00:05:58Oh, you've got to be joking.
00:06:00Don't tell me you got pregnant from that one night stand.
00:06:04You gave birth to it?
00:06:06Ew.
00:06:07Watch it.
00:06:08If you say something like that again,
00:06:09I'll make you wish you were never born.
00:06:11Forget it, babe.
00:06:13Let's go back inside.
00:06:17Wait, you two are?
00:06:20Oh, Daddy didn't tell you?
00:06:22Andrew and I are engaged.
00:06:24The wedding's this weekend.
00:06:28Daddy didn't tell you?
00:06:30Andrew and I are engaged.
00:06:31The wedding's this weekend.
00:06:34Congratulations.
00:06:36You two truly deserve each other.
00:06:39Is she here?
00:06:40Yes, Daddy.
00:06:42Well, I should get inside before Daddy gets mad.
00:06:46You wouldn't want that, right?
00:06:55Where did you bring him?
00:06:56Roman is my son.
00:06:58Of course I would take him with me.
00:07:01She's right, Daddy.
00:07:02I mean, that is your grandson over there.
00:07:06I will never accept a bastard as my grandson.
00:07:09How could you say that?
00:07:11If you weren't gonna welcome us,
00:07:12then why call us back here at all?
00:07:13This weekend is Vanessa and Andrew's engagement party.
00:07:17I also plan on announcing Vanessa as the new Cooper heir.
00:07:21I thought you should be here for that.
00:07:24Not with a child.
00:07:26Well, the next time something like this happens,
00:07:28just delete my number and save us both the time.
00:07:31Goodbye, and hopefully never see either of you again.
00:07:34Let's go, Roman.
00:07:36Charlotte Cooper, 30 years old,
00:07:38eldest daughter of the Cooper family.
00:07:4010 years ago, her father, Bruce Cooper,
00:07:42kicked her out of the family because some sort of a scandal.
00:07:47I mean, she's been working as a fashion-
00:07:48Hold on, hold on.
00:07:49Did you just say that there was a scandal 10 years ago?
00:07:54Hold on, hold on.
00:07:55Did you say that there's a scandal 10 years ago?
00:07:58Yes, sir.
00:07:59The records show here that Charlotte Cooper
00:08:01Yes, sir.
00:08:02The records show here that Charlotte Cooper
00:08:05left the country 10 years ago following a scandal
00:08:08that was exposed at Andrew Thompson's wedding.
00:08:10How do you see that?
00:08:11She's been abroad ever since.
00:08:14You know, there's something familiar about this girl.
00:08:17Wait, what?
00:08:18Nothing.
00:08:21Thank you, sir.
00:08:24Keep digging, I wanna know what else
00:08:25you can find out about this girl.
00:08:32Shoot, I forgot to exchange money.
00:08:36I'm sorry, honey.
00:08:38This is all Mommy has.
00:08:39Don't worry, Mommy.
00:08:40It's enough.
00:08:49Mommy, the nice ice cream lady gave me an extra one.
00:08:54That's so sweet.
00:08:56Did you say thank you?
00:09:02Excuse me, mister, you dropped your ring.
00:09:08Excuse me, mister, you dropped your ring.
00:09:12It's you, did you steal it, you filthy brat?
00:09:15Andrew, no, I didn't.
00:09:18How could you say that?
00:09:19Roman didn't do anything.
00:09:20He knows it is hard whether he did it or not.
00:09:23You really have no shame.
00:09:24I'm not going to let you get away with this.
00:09:26I'm not going to let you get away with this.
00:09:28I'm not going to let you get away with this.
00:09:30You really have no shame, huh, Charlotte?
00:09:33Aren't you embarrassed?
00:09:34Dragging around this stealing bastard with you everywhere?
00:09:40You say that again, I swear.
00:09:42Did I call him wrong?
00:09:44I mean, it's true.
00:09:45He's nothing but a filthy little bastard.
00:09:48Are you out of your damn mind?
00:09:53Oh my God!
00:09:54Barking and biting like a rabid dog?
00:09:57What kind of parent raises their child like that?
00:09:59Don't blame the kid.
00:10:00Raised without a father.
00:10:02No wonder he doesn't have a name.
00:10:06Honey!
00:10:08Hey.
00:10:08Hi, sweetheart.
00:10:11You alright?
00:10:15Hey.
00:10:16Hi, sweetheart.
00:10:18You alright?
00:10:20Huh?
00:10:20Hey, buddy.
00:10:21Hi, Daddy.
00:10:22You good?
00:10:22I'm sorry, guys.
00:10:23I had to take a phone call from the embassy reporter.
00:10:25Oh my God, they just keep pestering me for an interview.
00:10:30Did I miss something?
00:10:31No, honey.
00:10:32They just wanted some money for the bus.
00:10:34Oh.
00:10:35No, guys, I'm so sorry.
00:10:37I don't have any money on me.
00:10:38But if you guys need a ride, we can take you for a ride in our new Porsche.
00:10:46Thank you so much.
00:10:48I'm Charlotte.
00:10:49Listen, I only did that because I don't like to see kids being pestered.
00:10:52Okay, but what kind of parent gives their kid only ice cream?
00:10:56And where's the kid's father?
00:10:57I mean, what kind of father leaves their kid with someone like you?
00:11:11Are you serious?
00:11:14Are you really going to treat somebody like that that just saved your life?
00:11:17I'm grateful for your help, but no one tells me how to raise my son.
00:11:20Let's go, Roman.
00:11:22Alright, we'll see him.
00:11:24Don't worry.
00:11:26Stop.
00:11:27Oh, God.
00:11:33Luckily, I still have one last refuge in this world.
00:11:40Oh, my God, Charlotte, my sweetheart.
00:11:43Where have you been?
00:11:46Hi, I'm Roman.
00:11:47Hi, Roman, sweetie.
00:11:48So good to see you.
00:11:50You guys, come on in.
00:11:51So good to have you back.
00:11:54You need a wing.
00:11:55Here you go.
00:11:56Oh, so how's he doing in school?
00:11:58Amazing.
00:11:59He's great.
00:12:00Good.
00:12:01As always.
00:12:02Slow down, child.
00:12:05Okay, I'm going to go outside.
00:12:07Oh, okay.
00:12:11Thank you so much for all of this.
00:12:14Honey, I'm your godmother.
00:12:16I should be conjuring up glass slippers and pumpkin carriages for you.
00:12:22Oh, you know what?
00:12:23That reminds me.
00:12:24Wait here a moment.
00:12:28So, I heard about Andrew and Vanessa's engagement party this weekend.
00:12:33I'd really rather not go.
00:12:35I think I just want to cut off all contact with them.
00:12:38Charlotte, living well is the best revenge.
00:12:41And those who wish ill upon you, that's the right thing.
00:12:46You know what?
00:12:47Open the box and give them a sight to behold.
00:12:51Oh.
00:12:56You're going to be beautiful.
00:13:04You see that girl over there in the purple?
00:13:07Don't let her in.
00:13:15Excuse me, ma'am.
00:13:16May I see your invitation, ma'am?
00:13:18What invitation?
00:13:20I'm sorry.
00:13:21No invitation, you can't enter, ma'am.
00:13:24Listen, I didn't even want to come here tonight.
00:13:26Your host is the one that invited me.
00:13:28And if he doesn't see me, it's going to be a big problem for you.
00:13:31Rules are rules.
00:13:32No invitation, no entry.
00:13:38Daddy!
00:13:40Huh?
00:13:42I didn't expect to see you here.
00:13:44Well, I was invited.
00:13:47Um, we forgot our invitation.
00:13:50Do you think you could help us in?
00:13:52Of course.
00:13:54But, uh...
00:13:56You're going to have to beg me.
00:14:00You're going to have to beg me.
00:14:05Okay, please.
00:14:07Will you help us get in?
00:14:09Mr...?
00:14:11Ethan Wright.
00:14:12Please, Mr. Wright.
00:14:14Would you help us?
00:14:15Sure.
00:14:16But just to be clear,
00:14:18I'm only doing it for the kid.
00:14:21Of course.
00:14:26There you go.
00:14:29I'm sorry, Mr. Wright.
00:14:31Enjoy.
00:14:39Pretty dress.
00:14:40Thank you so much.
00:14:41And thank you for coming, really.
00:14:45I heard Galaxy Net Media CEO Ethan Wright is in town.
00:14:50So, I asked someone to send him an invitation.
00:14:54Do you think he'll come?
00:14:55Ethan Wright.
00:14:57I've never heard of him attending private events.
00:15:00What makes you think an ice king like that would want to come to our little engagement party?
00:15:04Does it hurt to try?
00:15:05Let me think about it.
00:15:07If he comes today, everyone will look up to us.
00:15:13That bitch.
00:15:16Well, well.
00:15:17Charlotte.
00:15:18What a surprise to see you here.
00:15:21Didn't Daddy tell you not to bring the bastard?
00:15:24Well, I find your party just as sad and disgusting as you.
00:15:29And that's why I brought some people that don't make me sick to look at.
00:15:33What are you laughing at?
00:15:37My apologies.
00:15:38I've never been to such a quaint little banquet before.
00:15:43Please, excuse my rudeness.
00:15:49This dress is a one-of-a-kind designer gown.
00:15:52Custom made for me in Italy.
00:15:55My dear sister, if you really didn't have anything suitable to wear for tonight, you could have borrowed something of mine.
00:16:02Well, nothing can be as bad as that out-of-season thing you're wearing.
00:16:06What's under that cloak you're too scared to take off?
00:16:10I bet it's something even more embarrassing.
00:16:12Embarrassing?
00:16:17I bet it's something even more embarrassing.
00:16:21Not what you expected?
00:16:29I'm so sorry.
00:16:30I'm so sorry.
00:16:31Let me help you.
00:16:32Stop pulling my body, mean lady.
00:16:35My limited edition designer shoes.
00:16:38Get out of here, you little brat.
00:16:40Andrew, let him go.
00:16:43Andrew, don't blame the boy.
00:16:45After all, his mother is Charlotte.
00:16:50You know, the woman who slept around before her wedding day.
00:16:55Let go of the kid.
00:17:00Who the hell do you think you are?
00:17:03No one makes you think you can talk to me like that.
00:17:05Oh, I'm sorry.
00:17:07I must have not mentioned.
00:17:09I'm the kid's father.
00:17:13You can get lost too before I throw you out with him.
00:17:17What's going on here?
00:17:21What's going on here?
00:17:24Daddy, it was Charlotte.
00:17:25She was telling everyone that...
00:17:26Enough, enough.
00:17:27Can't you see we have an esteemed guest here?
00:17:29Mr. Miller doesn't want to hear this nonsense.
00:17:31Charlotte, come with me.
00:17:40Do you want to get some food?
00:17:42Sure.
00:17:49Charlotte, this is Starfield's CEO, Mr. Miller.
00:17:54Starfield's the biggest oil company in our state.
00:17:56And a very important partner.
00:17:59It's nice to meet you, Mr. Miller.
00:18:00Nice to meet you too, Charlotte.
00:18:02You're just undeniably gorgeous, aren't you?
00:18:08See, I had a feeling you two would be a great match.
00:18:12Dad, what is this all about?
00:18:14Behave yourself, Charlotte.
00:18:15It's alright, Bruce. No worries.
00:18:18Charlotte, I got myself a private room upstairs.
00:18:22Why don't you and I go get some coffee and get to know you a little better?
00:18:27Absolutely, Mr. Miller.
00:18:29Go on, Charlotte.
00:18:32Mommy, I see this really good cake over there.
00:18:36Do you want to go try it with me?
00:18:38Mommy, Charlotte, is this your rug or hat?
00:18:40I can come to your room, Mr. Miller, as long as my son and my husband approve.
00:18:48What's going on here?
00:18:50Excuse me, gentlemen, but I'm afraid I tend to be the jealous type.
00:18:56As you heard, it looks like my husband isn't okay with it, so I'll have to decline your offer.
00:19:03This is a misunderstanding. She doesn't have a child.
00:19:06It's just technically an important little basket.
00:19:09Dad, stop with the lies.
00:19:11Everyone here knows Roman is my son. Stop pretending like he isn't.
00:19:15What the hell is this? Are you trying to make a fool out of me?
00:19:18No, no, no. Joe, look, I would never do that. You know that.
00:19:22They're just a couple of hired actors.
00:19:26She's role-playing. It's just playing house.
00:19:29Fuck you, Bruce. Our deal's off. Pay your own goddamn debt yourself.
00:19:40Charlotte, I have had it with you. This is the last time you embarrass me.
00:19:47Go and apologize to Mr. Miller.
00:19:49Dad, are you crazy?
00:19:50Go!
00:19:53Mr. Wright, wouldn't you like for me to get someone to clean up this mess?
00:20:00Did you just say Mr. Wright? Who are you really?
00:20:05This is Ethan Wright.
00:20:08And he is the top ten on Forbes Billionaire List,
00:20:12CEO of GalaxyNet, and of course, Miss Charlotte Cooper's husband.
00:20:21Mr. Cooper, my wife here came as a courtesy to enjoy her sister's engagement,
00:20:28but unfortunately, instead of you, thank you.
00:20:31You have completely embarrassed both of us by trying to get her to go to another man's room in front of our son.
00:20:37Do you care to explain?
00:20:41Do you care to explain?
00:20:44Mommy, did you hear that?
00:20:49Mr. Wright, Ethan, if I may, I obviously was not privy to all the ins and outs of what's happening here.
00:20:57I obviously was not privy to all the ins and outs of what's happening here.
00:21:00And somebody didn't tell me they got married.
00:21:03So there's no way I was going to know that he was your son.
00:21:07That's impossible. He wasn't even the guy from that...
00:21:10What? Why don't you finish?
00:21:13I...
00:21:14Why don't you tell them how you framed me and ruined my peaceful life?
00:21:18Spit it out!
00:21:22Why don't you tell them how you framed me and ruined my peaceful life?
00:21:27Spit it out!
00:21:29What is she talking about, Vanessa?
00:21:30Nothing. Nothing. She's...
00:21:32She's obviously just jealous of our happiness and is speaking nonsense.
00:21:39Honey?
00:21:40I wasn't feeling well.
00:21:41Honey? Honey? Honey?
00:21:43This is all your fault!
00:21:45Let's go.
00:21:50If I may...
00:21:51My son-in-law. Your son-in-law.
00:21:52Son, look, I can't apologize enough.
00:21:55And I can only hope that you find it in your heart to forgive me.
00:21:59Because I didn't know why I...
00:22:04Yes, you did make a mistake.
00:22:07You have absolutely embarrassed us.
00:22:09I do not appreciate how you have treated my family.
00:22:13Charlotte, let's get out of here and rid ourselves of their filth.
00:22:18You're right, honey. Let's go.
00:22:21Hey.
00:22:23Hey.
00:22:24I don't like these people.
00:22:26Let's not visit them again.
00:22:28Sure thing, sweetheart.
00:22:32Ethan! We could be partners and make a lot of money together!
00:22:45Hold on one sec. I'm just going to call room service because I need to find a new...
00:22:48Here we go.
00:22:51Oh, um...
00:22:54What? Do I look weird?
00:22:57No. No, you... you look, uh...
00:23:02You look good.
00:23:12Um...
00:23:13What?
00:23:14What?
00:23:19What? What is it?
00:23:24Okay, let me ask you a question.
00:23:26What did they mean about you fooling around about your wedding ten years ago, hmm?
00:23:29Ethan, let me go.
00:23:30Answer my question.
00:23:34Does he think I'm easy because of what Vanessa said?
00:23:37No.
00:23:43I'm sorry. I...
00:23:48I didn't mean to do that.
00:23:55I'm sorry.
00:23:57I should go.
00:24:03Roman, let's go home.
00:24:08Rome?
00:24:11Are you here?
00:24:15Roman, where are you?
00:24:23Charlotte, I have Roman.
00:24:25He'll stay with me until you help us seal the deal with Ethan Wright.
00:24:29What's wrong with you, you monster?
00:24:31He's your grandson!
00:24:34Watch your mouth, my good daughter.
00:24:36Your son's safety is in your hands.
00:24:38If I were you, I'd start running.
00:24:41Wait, please let me talk to him first. Wait.
00:24:45Hello?
00:25:02Ryan, where is Ethan? I need to see him right now.
00:25:07I'm sorry.
00:25:11I'm constantly repeating myself. I feel like a broken record.
00:25:16Ethan?
00:25:17Ethan!
00:25:18Are you listening to me?
00:25:19Um, yeah, yeah.
00:25:20Then what did I say?
00:25:23That it's time to find a wife.
00:25:26And that I need to start thinking about marriage and family.
00:25:28But, Mom, I'm not.
00:25:30Exactly.
00:25:32Listen, I know you're busy.
00:25:34So, I found some nice girls for you.
00:25:39Ethan, Ms. Charlotte Cooper is insisting on seeing you.
00:25:44She's at the front door right now.
00:26:00Well, looks like I may actually have a daughter-in-law soon.
00:26:05Hi, I'm so sorry to bother you, but I really need your help.
00:26:08Okay, calm down. What happened?
00:26:10My father took Roman. You're the only person who can help me.
00:26:13What were his terms?
00:26:14You just have to pick the Coopers as your business partners.
00:26:17I'm sorry, but I've run out of all other options.
00:26:19Otherwise, I wouldn't bother you like this again.
00:26:21What's in it for me?
00:26:23What?
00:26:24I mean, listen.
00:26:25Just because I've helped you out a couple times,
00:26:27doesn't make me some automatic, wish-granted genie, okay?
00:26:30Even genies take some sort of payment.
00:26:35What do you want to pay me?
00:26:36Whatever it takes.
00:26:39What do you want to pay me?
00:26:40Whatever it takes.
00:26:41Let me ask you a question.
00:26:42Is this some sort of scheme that you and your father are putting together?
00:26:45What, you're trying to bait me into believing that there's some kid being held hostage?
00:26:48What, you just gained my sympathy?
00:26:50What do you mean?
00:26:53Listen, I've seen these dirty, dirty pictures of you and your father.
00:26:56What do you mean?
00:26:58Listen, I've seen these dirty tricks happen way too many times.
00:27:02If your father wants to cut a deal with me,
00:27:04he can make me a deal that's going to impress me.
00:27:06Otherwise, no fucking deal.
00:27:08You really think that little of me?
00:27:11Fine.
00:27:12Thanks for nothing.
00:27:19What's wrong?
00:27:20Nothing.
00:27:22Alfred, what's the problem?
00:27:24I'm just concerned that you may regret your actions
00:27:28if later you find out that you misjudged our loveliness, Cooper.
00:27:40Ryan.
00:27:41Hello, Ethan.
00:27:42I need you to figure out if Roman's really being held hostage.
00:27:45Figure out if this is a trap set by the Coopers.
00:27:49Alright, thanks.
00:27:53Ah.
00:28:02Daddy, are you sure this is safe?
00:28:04I mean, Ethan Wright's a very powerful man.
00:28:07He'll probably find that place easily.
00:28:09Don't worry, I've got my best men keeping watch.
00:28:12Plus, it's offshore.
00:28:13It's not as easy as you think.
00:28:15Offshore?
00:28:24Did you hear something?
00:28:27Relax, Dad, you're probably just on edge.
00:28:29Plus, our new locks won't let anyone get past the combo.
00:28:34You know, I bet Ethan Wright isn't even with Charlotte,
00:28:36or he'd be here by now.
00:28:38That bitch is probably on a show.
00:28:40Who knows what she offered him in return.
00:28:44Well, their relationship might be more complicated than it seems,
00:28:48but you might be able to take advantage of that.
00:28:54What?
00:28:56The men are on the move?
00:28:58Whose men? Ethan?
00:29:00There's no way.
00:29:01He made it very clear that he wasn't interested in helping.
00:29:05Well, put the order out and move the little bastard.
00:29:08Do it now!
00:29:09That doesn't sound good.
00:29:11If they move Roman, I bet they'll up the security.
00:29:14Then it'll be even harder to track him down.
00:29:17Oh, no.
00:29:18I have to go now.
00:29:21Oh, no.
00:29:22I have to go now.
00:29:39My own sweet daughter.
00:29:41Still up to your dirty little tricks, I see.
00:29:44You're not my father, you're a monster.
00:29:46Give me my son back!
00:29:49All this time, you haven't changed.
00:29:51You still have a bit of a temper, huh?
00:29:56Well, it's your hot shot husband that should be here begging to make a deal with me.
00:30:01I've already tried to convince him, there's nothing else I can do.
00:30:05He refused?
00:30:08I knew you weren't his wife.
00:30:11Oh, my God, how dare you try to act like some what?
00:30:14High and mighty wife?
00:30:17You're gonna cry?
00:30:25Well, sweet child.
00:30:28Here now is your opportunity to make things right.
00:30:31Remember Mr. Miller?
00:30:33I know you do.
00:30:34He's quite fond of you.
00:30:36Why don't you two marry?
00:30:38You can play your part in our family business.
00:30:43If you like him so much, why don't you marry him?
00:30:46Won't that be better for your family business?
00:30:49If you keep saying no to me, then I won't be able to guarantee the safety of your little brat!
00:31:00Sir, our men have confirmed.
00:31:03Roman Cooper, he was kidnapped by his grandfather.
00:31:06He was last spotted at Andrew and Vanessa's engagement party.
00:31:10Could I really have misjudged you then?
00:31:25Come on, go with me!
00:31:26Help! Help! Somebody help!
00:31:28Don't bother, nobody's coming to save her sorry little ass.
00:31:32What do you think you're gonna do with him, huh?
00:31:33Daddy!
00:31:34Put him down.
00:31:35Fuck off, lover boy.
00:31:36Oh man.
00:31:38You heard what I said.
00:31:42Let him go.
00:31:45You asked for this.
00:31:50You okay?
00:31:51You're so cool.
00:31:53Those bad guys didn't stand a chance.
00:31:56Daddy, watch out!
00:32:03Let's go home to mom.
00:32:06I'm sorry, but the person you've called has a voicemail box.
00:32:10Sorry, the person you've called has a voicemail box.
00:32:17Hey, don't worry.
00:32:19Okay, your mother is probably outside looking for you.
00:32:22Alright, that's why she didn't answer the phone.
00:32:24But do you want to stay with me for a couple of days?
00:32:29But daddy, this was my idea.
00:32:33But daddy, is mommy in danger?
00:32:38No.
00:32:40Your mom is going to be perfectly fine, okay?
00:32:44She is tough.
00:32:46She is very, very tough.
00:32:48But she needs someone to protect her.
00:32:51Daddy, can you protect her?
00:32:59I'm sorry, kid.
00:33:00Don't say that.
00:33:02I'm not your father.
00:33:05Are you hungry?
00:33:07Do you want to get some food?
00:33:09Come on.
00:33:22Throw it!
00:33:23Hey!
00:33:24Oh!
00:33:25That's a good throw.
00:33:26Good job, buddy.
00:33:27Ethan, what are you doing?
00:33:28Who is this kid?
00:33:29Hi!
00:33:30I'm Roman.
00:33:32Hello, sweetie.
00:33:33What on earth is going on here?
00:33:35Oh, listen, I'm just taking care of him for a couple of days.
00:33:38Don't lie to me, Ethan.
00:33:39Who's his mother?
00:33:40Is she that girl that came by last time?
00:33:43Yes, but listen, it's not what you think.
00:33:45Roman's grandfather kidnapped him.
00:33:47I'm just looking after him for his mother, that's all.
00:33:50You seem to have more interest in this child than leads on.
00:33:55Listen, I'm not going to lie, okay?
00:33:57We do have a strong connection.
00:33:59A connection that's like what a father and son would have.
00:34:02But he's not mine.
00:34:09Listen, I'm not going to lie, okay?
00:34:11We do have a strong connection.
00:34:12A connection that's like what a father and son would have.
00:34:15But he's not mine.
00:34:18Ethan, I know you want to try to take care of him yourself,
00:34:21but there's already rumors about you having a secret child.
00:34:25Better to keep a low profile now and let me look after him for a while.
00:34:29All right, that makes sense.
00:34:32Come on, sweetie.
00:34:35We'll have some fun together, won't we, Romy?
00:34:38Daddy, can we play later again?
00:34:42Daddy?
00:34:44Ethan Wright, you need to explain yourself.
00:34:47Hey, buddy, how old did you say that you were?
00:34:51I'm nine.
00:34:52Okay, you're nine.
00:34:54Um, well, the timing matches up.
00:34:59Ethan, no matter what the truth is,
00:35:02right now finding his mother is a priority.
00:35:04We can work out everything else later.
00:35:08Come on.
00:35:16Where are you, Charlotte?
00:35:23Oh, there she is.
00:35:26Oh, look at you, looking pretty as a picture.
00:35:29Sparkling like a diamond in that dress.
00:35:34I need to use the restroom.
00:35:38Remember what I told you.
00:35:40Behave if you want the boy to live.
00:35:45Let's go.
00:35:47There she is.
00:35:48It certainly is wonderful to see you again, Charlotte.
00:35:51Looking spectacularly beautiful, as always.
00:35:54So, I'm glad we cleared up that little misunderstanding, Joe.
00:35:58But, uh, about our previous arrangement...
00:36:01No, no worries at all, Rosie.
00:36:03A man of my word.
00:36:05You're dead. Rest safely with me, please.
00:36:08Cheers.
00:36:11What?
00:36:13The brat escaped when?
00:36:19Idiots.
00:36:20Tell them to send more men.
00:36:22The brat must be found.
00:36:26I don't think so.
00:36:28I don't think so.
00:36:30I don't think so.
00:36:32I don't think so.
00:36:34I don't think so.
00:36:36I don't think so.
00:36:38I don't think so.
00:36:43Let me go.
00:36:44Oh, don't be shy, beautiful.
00:36:46Come on, I'm just trying to be nice.
00:36:48Oh, here?
00:36:50Let her go.
00:36:54Ethan, thank God.
00:36:56Ah, uh, Mr. Wright.
00:36:58Unfortunately, Charlotte's been promised to Mr. Miller now, so...
00:37:02Even with all your power, you just can't do everything that you want, right?
00:37:07I'm sorry, Mr. Miller. How about we play a game, hmm?
00:37:11Winner takes the girl home?
00:37:13That's a joke.
00:37:15Are you crazy? I'm not an object, I'm a person.
00:37:21What? He found Roman?
00:37:23All right, gentlemen, let's do this.
00:37:26How much are you willing to wager for the girl, Mr. Miller?
00:37:29Well, that depends.
00:37:31How much are you willing to throw down yourself at their house?
00:37:34Well, I think we owe our girl a little respect.
00:37:37I'm willing to wager...
00:37:40one-tenth of my net worth.
00:37:43One-tenth? Is that all?
00:37:45How much could that possibly be?
00:37:49Mr. Miller, Ethan Wright is worth $100 billion, so 10%.
00:37:54You said $10 billion?
00:37:56Are you out of your goddamn mind?
00:37:58Ah, don't worry.
00:38:00We can take all your real estate and your company's value.
00:38:02I mean, if you add those up, right,
00:38:04your real estate and your company's value,
00:38:06five properties, that adds up to...
00:38:09exactly $5 billion.
00:38:11You know, Mr. Cooper,
00:38:13I think for the sake of your daughter's happiness,
00:38:16you ought to contribute, hmm?
00:38:19Mr. Wright, this is too preposterous.
00:38:22I think we should, uh...
00:38:24If either of you win, it will count as a win for both of you,
00:38:27and I would like to have Charlotte
00:38:30represent me in this game.
00:38:35How's that sound?
00:38:37Good.
00:38:39Are you crazy?
00:38:40You're having me play alone in a $10 billion wager?
00:38:43Of course.
00:38:45I would never treat you as a mere object to be bargaining with.
00:38:48I'm simply giving you control over your own destiny.
00:38:52Do you trust me?
00:38:55Okay.
00:39:01Do you trust me?
00:39:03Okay, Mr. Wright, but...
00:39:05don't regret this if you go bankrupt.
00:39:07Enough talking.
00:39:08What are we playing, Slick?
00:39:09Why don't we play a fair and simple game?
00:39:11Blackjack. Five rounds, best of three, hmm?
00:39:14Shall we?
00:39:30Let's go.
00:40:01Hit me.
00:40:07Hit me.
00:40:09Oh, goddamn!
00:40:11I did it! I did it!
00:40:14See?
00:40:16Trust me.
00:40:18Well played, man.
00:40:20You know, Cooper, you're on your own.
00:40:22Oh, wait!
00:40:24Mr. Wright, I think we got off on the wrong foot here.
00:40:26Why don't we play another round? Double or nothing, huh?
00:40:28Why don't we play another round? Double or nothing, huh?
00:40:30Mr. Miller, I don't think we should do that, you know,
00:40:32because you wouldn't want to ruin your reputation
00:40:34off of just a simple little game, right?
00:40:36Ryan, please take our gentleman here, Mr. Miller, into the back
00:40:40to do all the necessary paperwork and procedures
00:40:42because I would not want him to walk off, right?
00:40:44Cooper. Cooper.
00:40:46Sorry, sorry.
00:40:47You're gonna help me out, Cooper. You're gonna help me out.
00:40:49Mr. Cooper, help!
00:40:51Mr. Cooper, you're not gonna go against your bet, are you?
00:40:55Well, we never actually...
00:40:57We never agreed to the terms or to the odds.
00:41:01That's really how you want to do this?
00:41:03Fine.
00:41:04Someone get the surveillance footage.
00:41:06Sir, it's been settled.
00:41:09Nothing's moving.
00:41:11Andrew, you can see the surveillance.
00:41:15Ah, Mr. Wright,
00:41:18there's no footage or evidence of the deal.
00:41:21I mean, that's a shame.
00:41:23Yes, that is a shame.
00:41:26A strict shame.
00:41:28But I did find out that Andrew,
00:41:30in the security department,
00:41:32was terminated today.
00:41:41Oh, and I forgot to mention, you know,
00:41:43because of all of that that is going on,
00:41:46I was able to acquire the casino today
00:41:50in case something like this happens.
00:41:52So any surveillance that you're looking for,
00:41:55I can get you copies of all of it.
00:42:02Mr. Wright, I know.
00:42:04I was wrong.
00:42:06Please, please, have mercy.
00:42:09Let's just forget this.
00:42:10Forget all of it, right?
00:42:12But that would only come with specific conditions.
00:42:18Forget all of it, right?
00:42:20Forget all of it.
00:42:21But that would only come with specific conditions.
00:42:25Anything, name it.
00:42:27I would like to name it,
00:42:28but I think that Charlotte
00:42:30should be the one to handle this situation.
00:42:35Sweetheart, sweetheart.
00:42:38You know I love you.
00:42:39You're a coper.
00:42:40You're one of the family.
00:42:41Even the brat, even my grandson
00:42:45is welcome.
00:42:48That won't be necessary.
00:42:50I don't want anything to do with you.
00:42:53But as far as our conditions,
00:42:55I think I can come to with better terms than your assets.
00:42:58Whatever you want, name it.
00:43:00First, you won't harass me or Roman again.
00:43:03Done.
00:43:04Second, you'll return my mother's shares to me.
00:43:06They're worth 30 million,
00:43:07and they belong to me legally.
00:43:09You can't keep them.
00:43:11Okay, I'll start the...
00:43:13And lastly,
00:43:15you will remove Vanessa's name from the inheritance entirely.
00:43:18Are you out of your damn mind?
00:43:20No, she's not.
00:43:22You heard her.
00:43:27Seriously? You're really gonna...
00:43:29Dad.
00:43:30Deal.
00:43:31Dad!
00:43:33Looks like we're even now.
00:43:35You bitch.
00:43:44Mommy, I missed you so much.
00:43:46Bitch.
00:43:47Oh, sweetie.
00:43:49Mommy, Daddy left everything behind to find you.
00:43:53I knew he would be able to save you.
00:43:55Thank you so much for watching him, Mrs. Wright.
00:43:58You're welcome, honey.
00:43:59Is everything okay now?
00:44:01Were you able to resolve all the issues with your family?
00:44:04Yes, thanks to Ethan.
00:44:06Everything is okay now.
00:44:09Let's go home now.
00:44:11Bye-bye, Granny.
00:44:13Wait, Charlotte.
00:44:14I'm sorry if this offends you, but...
00:44:16I have to ask...
00:44:18Who is Roman's father?
00:44:22I'm sorry if this offends you, but...
00:44:25I have to ask...
00:44:27Who is Roman's father?
00:44:28Mom.
00:44:30It's... It's okay.
00:44:32Um...
00:44:33Looks like I'll have to come up with some story to get through this.
00:44:37Um...
00:44:38Roman's father wasn't a very good man.
00:44:41We were married for two months, and he treated us terribly.
00:44:46We only have each other now, and...
00:44:49We're a complete family.
00:44:52Is there anything else, Mrs. Wright?
00:44:55I understand, Charlotte.
00:44:57You're welcome to visit any time.
00:44:59I really like Roman.
00:45:01He's such a sweet boy.
00:45:04Thank you so much again.
00:45:06I appreciate it.
00:45:08All right, let's go.
00:45:09Goodbye.
00:45:21Mommy, I'm hungry.
00:45:23Shh, one second.
00:45:25Lucy, are you here?
00:45:29Anyone here?
00:45:31Charlotte.
00:45:33Quite the weight you put me through.
00:45:37Quite the weight you put me through.
00:45:40Andrew.
00:45:41What are you doing here?
00:45:43Where's my godmother?
00:45:45Don't worry.
00:45:46The old woman's safe.
00:45:49I think you know why I'm here.
00:45:52What do you mean?
00:45:53Charlotte, you went too far.
00:45:55How could you take everything from your sister?
00:45:57I'm here to give you one last chance to fix this.
00:46:00What, do you think I'm grateful for all of this?
00:46:03Charlotte.
00:46:05You can still turn back.
00:46:07Don't call me that.
00:46:08Let's get one thing straight, Andrew.
00:46:10You and me have not been in a relationship like that in ten years.
00:46:14So you actually do have something going on with Ethan Wright.
00:46:19What?
00:46:20Of course.
00:46:21He's my daddy.
00:46:22Not now, please.
00:46:24Well, for the last ten years, I need to know honestly.
00:46:28Did you ever once feel regret for betraying me with Ethan?
00:46:34What are you, jealous?
00:46:35Say it.
00:46:36No, I don't regret it.
00:46:38You can go to hell.
00:46:40Now where?
00:46:41Cough up that stuff you took from your sister.
00:46:50You're going to pay for that.
00:47:04Charlotte.
00:47:11Open up, Charlotte.
00:47:23Ethan, pick up.
00:47:25Hey, Charlotte, you okay?
00:47:27Ethan, thank God.
00:47:28We need you here right now.
00:47:29Hey, where are you?
00:47:30Are you okay?
00:47:31I'm at my godmother's.
00:47:32Andrew is here.
00:47:33Okay, listen, put me on speaker.
00:47:34I will be there very soon, okay?
00:47:36I'll be there very soon.
00:47:50Hey, Charlotte.
00:47:51Mommy, I'm scared.
00:47:52Hey, it's me.
00:47:54It's okay, it's daddy.
00:47:59I knew you would be here, daddy.
00:48:01Hey, you guys okay?
00:48:02You guys okay?
00:48:04You good?
00:48:05Okay, it's not safe for you here.
00:48:07We're going to get you out of here, alright?
00:48:09Okay, come on.
00:48:10Go.
00:48:15Oh, hey.
00:48:17Put me down, put me down.
00:48:18No.
00:48:21Hey, listen.
00:48:22We got to get out of here quickly.
00:48:24You're going to slow us down like this.
00:48:26Let's go get out.
00:48:33Come on.
00:48:36Wow, daddy.
00:48:37Your house looks like a castle.
00:48:40Come on.
00:48:47Come on.
00:48:50Really, I'm fine now.
00:48:56Really, I'm fine now.
00:48:59Okay, just so we're clear.
00:49:01I'm not paying your medical bills, okay?
00:49:04I mean, it's not like you have health insurance right now that you're back home.
00:49:17Okay.
00:49:20Ethan, they are...
00:49:24Grace, this is Charlotte and Roman.
00:49:27They will be staying with us, like I said.
00:49:30Of course.
00:49:31All set.
00:49:32Hi, I'm Grace.
00:49:34And I've watched Ethan grow up since he was a little boy.
00:49:38And I've been serving the Wright family for about 30 years now.
00:49:43It's nice to meet you, Grace.
00:49:44Same to you, dear.
00:49:47Aww.
00:49:49The little one looks like Ethan when he was younger.
00:49:55The little one looks like Ethan when he was younger.
00:49:59Um, it's not what you think, Grace.
00:50:02Okay, how about we go check out our rooms now, shall we?
00:50:05Let's go.
00:50:06What are you doing?
00:50:07Well, you would not want to disappoint our sweet Grace here, would you?
00:50:12We can just stay in a hotel. It's fine.
00:50:15You don't think Andrew Thompson is going to be able to figure out what hotel you're staying in?
00:50:19Okay, fine.
00:50:20But just until we find a more proper place to live.
00:50:24Thank you for putting up with us, Grace.
00:50:26Oh, you're very welcome, dear.
00:50:30So, Rowan, would you like to come and pick out a big room for yourself?
00:50:54Daddy?
00:50:57Daddy?
00:50:59Daddy?
00:51:00Daddy?
00:51:01Daddy?
00:51:02Daddy?
00:51:03Daddy?
00:51:04Daddy?
00:51:05Daddy?
00:51:06Daddy?
00:51:07Daddy?
00:51:08Daddy?
00:51:09Daddy?
00:51:10Daddy?
00:51:11Daddy?
00:51:12Daddy?
00:51:13Daddy?
00:51:14Daddy?
00:51:15Daddy?
00:51:16Daddy?
00:51:17Daddy?
00:51:18Daddy?
00:51:19Daddy?
00:51:20Daddy?
00:51:21Daddy?
00:51:22Daddy?
00:51:23Daddy?
00:51:24Daddy?
00:51:25Daddy?
00:51:26Daddy?
00:51:28Daddy?
00:51:29Daddy?
00:51:30Daddy?
00:51:34Mom, you really gotta stop sending me these girls' information. I'm not interested.
00:51:44Ethan Benjamin Wright. You have to get married this year.
00:51:48This is an ultimatum.
00:51:57Okay.
00:52:02Then I'll marry Charlotte.
00:52:05Okay.
00:52:08Then I'll marry Charlotte.
00:52:10What? What? Are you crazy?
00:52:13Am I crazy? My mom needs me to get married.
00:52:16You and Roman need protection so things like yesterday don't happen again.
00:52:20It's like a win-win situation.
00:52:23Okay, I get that, but...
00:52:26Ethan, don't be childish. Are you serious about this?
00:52:30Marriage is not a joke.
00:52:32I've been thinking about this for a little while now, and...
00:52:36I think today's the right day.
00:52:44Charlotte?
00:52:46Will you marry me, Charlotte?
00:52:49You don't need to feel pressured, sweetie.
00:52:51If you're not in love with him, you don't have to say yes.
00:52:54It's okay.
00:53:00You good?
00:53:01I'm gonna get you out of here, alright?
00:53:03Let's go, kiddo.
00:53:05Daddy?
00:53:10I do.
00:53:13Okay.
00:53:17I will see you tomorrow.
00:53:20City Hall.
00:53:23Okay.
00:53:26Goodbye, fiancé.
00:53:36Bye, Mom.
00:53:38I hope you're happy now.
00:53:44Okay, sweetheart. Let's go.
00:53:46He didn't even get down on one knee.
00:53:49You ready?
00:53:51You guys ready?
00:53:54Everybody say, money.
00:53:57Money!
00:54:00Yay!
00:54:02Mommy, Daddy, we finally become a family.
00:54:05Good job, buddy.
00:54:19Okay.
00:54:35Okay.
00:54:37Now that you're married, you can just expect to spend Lisa's money.
00:54:41It's time to find yourself a job.
00:54:49Galaxy Net Media CEO Ethan Wright announced his upcoming reality show, Glam Gala,
00:54:55to discover the most talented fashion designers on Earth.
00:55:00Shut up.
00:55:05The numbers in the first quarter are lower than expected in the home entertainment department.
00:55:11Given previous experience, we thought that you might like to fire everyone in that department.
00:55:19Mandatory overtime for the rest of us.
00:55:22You know, things happen. Let's just improve.
00:55:28Sir, you have a special guest waiting in your office.
00:55:34You know, good work, everybody, with this quarter. Let's just keep it up.
00:55:42Well, that's new.
00:55:48Charlotte, my lovely wife, to what do I owe the pleasure?
00:55:53I have a proposition for you.
00:55:55A proposition? For me? Okay, what is it?
00:55:59I want to work for you.
00:56:04You want to work for me?
00:56:09My budding wife, fashion designer, I know you continue to amaze me every day.
00:56:15So, do I have the job?
00:56:19HR, down that hall, take a right.
00:56:23What?
00:56:24Honey, I need to keep things professional in this office.
00:56:28Thanks.
00:56:43Don't you think you're being a little bold, honey?
00:56:48We'll see about that.
00:56:51It's impressive. You have some very skilled fingers.
00:56:58That's nothing. I could do this all day.
00:57:06Then you're hired. Are there any special conditions?
00:57:14Thank you for the opportunity, boss.
00:57:17Thank you for the opportunity, boss.
00:57:20As for my condition, maybe we should keep our marriage a secret for now.
00:57:26We should keep things professional, right?
00:57:31Naughty. I like that.
00:57:40Sir, sir, I...
00:57:43Sorry, sir and ma'am, I didn't say anything.
00:57:47Maybe next time you should knock.
00:57:53What is it, Ryan?
00:57:57Oh, am I interrupting something?
00:58:01Oh, am I interrupting something?
00:58:04Sarah!
00:58:06Hi.
00:58:09You're back in town.
00:58:10I am. I got back a few days ago. I wanted to surprise you.
00:58:13And how long are you going to be in town for?
00:58:15I'm actually not planning on leaving anytime soon.
00:58:19Ethan, why don't you introduce us?
00:58:22Yes, Charlotte, this is Sarah. She's an old friend of mine.
00:58:26Sarah, this is Charlotte. She is...
00:58:30I'm a new employee.
00:58:31Yes.
00:58:36Oh, Ethan, I found that limited edition necklace that your mom has been dying to have.
00:58:40I'll bring it over this weekend. You'll be there, right?
00:58:43Um, you know, I might be a little busy this weekend, but my mom would love to see you.
00:58:52Actually, could you just give us a little bit of a privacy?
00:58:55This isn't really for staff members to hear.
00:58:58Sure. I should head to the art department. Excuse me.
00:59:09Oh my god, we have so much to catch up on.
00:59:11I know.
00:59:13Okay.
00:59:20Hello? Anybody there?
00:59:24Can you turn back on the lights, please?
00:59:27Fine.
00:59:36Okay.
00:59:37Oh my god, I'm so sorry. Are you okay?
00:59:40It's fine. It's fine.
00:59:42I'm busy.
01:00:12Hello? Anyone there?
01:00:22Maybe we should go home.
01:00:25Yeah, right. Let's go.
01:00:28Shh.
01:00:31Shh.
01:00:39What's wrong with me tonight? Why can't I get him out of my head?
01:00:44You getting a late night snack?
01:00:47Damn.
01:00:49Hey, you okay?
01:00:52You have to be more careful.
01:00:54Hold on.
01:00:55Hold on.
01:00:57Oh, all right. Got it. Okay.
01:01:00Hold still, okay?
01:01:03I'm gonna make you feel nice and better for you, okay?
01:01:07Hold on.
01:01:08Damn, that hurts.
01:01:09Easy.
01:01:11Yeah? Does that feel better?
01:01:13Yeah.
01:01:14Okay. Stay there.
01:01:18Hold still for me.
01:01:21Yeah?
01:01:23Yeah.
01:01:24Yeah?
01:01:26Okay.
01:01:28Okay.
01:01:45Where is everybody?
01:01:47Ryan picked Roman up for school this morning.
01:01:50He should be getting out soon.
01:01:53It's that late already?
01:01:55Ethan left early today to catch a flight, but he wanted you to have these.
01:02:00He changed the passwords to your birthday.
01:02:06Well, I guess I should thank him by taking his Audi to go get some groceries.
01:02:11Okay.
01:02:20Long time no see, Charlotte.
01:02:26Long time no see, Charlotte.
01:02:29Charlotte, wait. I need to talk to you.
01:02:32What? Is that a pepper?
01:02:33Stop. Stop. Stop.
01:02:34Let me go or I'm gonna call security.
01:02:36Relax.
01:02:37I came here behind Vanessa's back.
01:02:39I'm not gonna hurt you.
01:02:48Okay, Andrew.
01:02:50What's this all about?
01:02:52I know the truth, Charlotte.
01:02:53About Vanessa.
01:02:56I found this.
01:02:59And a hotel receipt tucked away in our home.
01:03:05What's this about, Charlotte?
01:03:07Maybe you should ask your precious fiancé about that.
01:03:10Charlotte. Charlotte, wait.
01:03:12I know the truth now.
01:03:14You were right all along and I was blinded.
01:03:19Can you please find it in your heart to forgive me?
01:03:24Andrew.
01:03:28It's too late.
01:03:30Wait. Wait. Wait.
01:03:31Who's that? Ethan Wright?
01:03:32Ethan Wright?
01:03:33With his wealth and his stature, there's no way he'd look twice at someone like you.
01:03:36You know, beauty queen or heiress.
01:03:38What could you possibly give to someone like him?
01:03:43You really haven't changed at all, have you?
01:03:46You and Vanessa deserve each other.
01:03:50Charlotte.
01:03:51Charlotte!
01:03:54You really haven't changed at all, have you?
01:03:57You and Vanessa deserve each other.
01:03:59Charlotte.
01:04:01Charlotte!
01:04:09Thank you so much.
01:04:10I'll take it from here.
01:04:12Mommy, I miss Daddy.
01:04:14I miss you coming back home.
01:04:17He's on a business trip. It'll just be a few more days.
01:04:20I made a wish that you would come home today.
01:04:30Oh.
01:04:34Daddy!
01:04:38Daddy!
01:04:39Hey!
01:04:40How's my little troublemaker?
01:04:42You good?
01:04:43Yeah.
01:04:44So, where have you been?
01:04:46You know, I just had a little bit of business to take care of, but I got you something.
01:04:55Hmm?
01:04:57Hi.
01:04:58Hi.
01:04:59How are you?
01:05:01Good.
01:05:03I, uh, wanted to tell you, Charlotte, that, um, I missed you.
01:05:20Roman?
01:05:21Roman!
01:05:22Roman!
01:05:23Hi, bud.
01:05:24Can you hear me?
01:05:25Hey!
01:05:26Hey!
01:05:27Hey, wake up!
01:05:29Hey, wake up!
01:05:30Hey!
01:05:31Roman!
01:05:34What do we do?
01:05:35Roman!
01:05:38Can you hear me?
01:05:39Hey.
01:05:40Trust me.
01:05:41Okay.
01:05:46Hey.
01:05:52Roman!
01:05:53Are you okay?
01:05:54You scared my dad.
01:05:56Just be safe.
01:05:58Let's pray.
01:06:09It appears Roman suffered an allergic reaction to something he consumed.
01:06:13Has he had any foods or anything out of the ordinary that could have triggered that?
01:06:19I did, uh, I brought this back from a business trip.
01:06:25He had a bite of it, and then he reacted.
01:06:31It says hazelnut.
01:06:32Has he ever had an allergic reaction before to hazelnut?
01:06:35No, he's never really tried hazelnuts before.
01:06:39Okay, well, I'm gonna send the blood test results to the lab, and they'll check for specific allergens,
01:06:43but in the meantime, I suggest Roman stays here for a couple more days under observation.
01:06:48Hey, Doc, can I have a word with you outside?
01:06:51Sure.
01:06:55Okay.
01:07:03Doc, can parents pass down the same allergy to their kid?
01:07:08Yes.
01:07:09If a parent is allergic to something, there's a high chance that the child could inherit that same trait.
01:07:17Don't tell me you're allergic to hazelnut also.
01:07:20You can't just give your son hazelnut chocolate like that.
01:07:24That could be very dangerous.
01:07:27Doc?
01:07:28Yeah?
01:07:29How long does it take to get the results for a paternity test?
01:07:35Doc?
01:07:36Yeah?
01:07:37How long does it take to get the results for a paternity test?
01:07:40Oh, that could be very...
01:07:50Doc?
01:08:02Is everything okay in here?
01:08:04Yeah, everything's fine.
01:08:06Why don't you go home and get some rest?
01:08:08Okay? I can take care of Roman.
01:08:11But...
01:08:12Listen, Roman is gonna wake up, and he's gonna want his mom.
01:08:16Okay? You need to stay strong for him.
01:08:19If there are any updates, promise you'll call me.
01:08:22I promise.
01:08:49Okay.
01:09:20Sir.
01:09:21Here are the results that you asked for.
01:09:24Thanks.
01:09:28Probability of paternity.
01:09:32Thanks.
01:09:50Hey, how's it going? Is everything alright?
01:09:53Yeah, everything's, uh...
01:09:55Everything's fine. I just, uh...
01:09:57Just got my hopes up a little today.
01:09:59What?
01:10:01Did you say something?
01:10:08I'm sorry, guys, but I'm afraid I have some bad news.
01:10:11What?
01:10:20I'm afraid Roman has leukemia.
01:10:25We need to find a bone marrow match as soon as possible.
01:10:28We can't afford any delays.
01:10:30I'm his mother. I'll get tested right now.
01:10:32Very well. I'll get the paperwork started.
01:10:36Thanks, Doc.
01:10:37Alright.
01:10:50Hello, doctor?
01:10:53I did everything you wanted, Vanessa.
01:10:55You'll be sending my payment wire soon, right?
01:11:01You know, maybe we can try to find Roman's dad and get him tested, too.
01:11:06I lied to you about how I got pregnant with Roman.
01:11:10The truth is, I don't know who Roman's father is.
01:11:14It was a one-night stand.
01:11:17Listen.
01:11:19It's okay.
01:11:20Alright? I will do everything I can to try to find him.
01:11:24I promise.
01:11:26Okay?
01:11:41I don't believe we know each other.
01:11:43That doesn't matter.
01:11:44That doesn't matter.
01:11:46What matters is that we have a common enemy.
01:11:52Interested in teamwork?
01:12:02You said you found the bone marrow match for Roman?
01:12:05Is that true?
01:12:07It is.
01:12:08It is.
01:12:12If you want the treatment, you're going to have to agree to my terms first.
01:12:21Hey.
01:12:23Is there any good news?
01:12:25You can talk to the doctor.
01:12:27There is a match.
01:12:29That's great.
01:12:30That's what we wanted. That's good.
01:12:33Ethan, I...
01:12:34Hey, hey, hey.
01:12:36That's good news.
01:12:37Look at me.
01:12:39That's good.
01:12:41Stop.
01:12:44What's wrong?
01:12:45Charlotte.
01:12:48Listen.
01:12:51I know there's something wrong.
01:12:53Tell me the problem.
01:12:59Ethan.
01:13:02I'm leaving you.
01:13:08I'm leaving you.
01:13:14I found Roman's biological father.
01:13:17He agreed to donate bone marrow if we get back together.
01:13:21If you get back together.
01:13:22So he's going to let his own blood and flesh die?
01:13:25For you to just listen to him?
01:13:27Does that make any sense?
01:13:30Listen to me.
01:13:32I'm going to keep searching and find somebody that will help Roman.
01:13:36Do you hear me?
01:13:38Everything's going to be okay.
01:13:41Ethan, I can wait.
01:13:44But Roman can't.
01:13:46I'm sorry. I've made my decision.
01:13:48We have to get a divorce.
01:13:53Is that your final decision?
01:13:57Yes.
01:14:02Alright.
01:14:04I'll write up the paperwork within the next few days.
01:14:28Ryan.
01:14:29I need you to find out who's threatening her.
01:14:33Yes sir. I'm on it.
01:14:43Ma'am.
01:14:44I'm sorry. You're going to have to wait here.
01:14:47You made the right call.
01:15:04Mrs. Cooper.
01:15:06The treatment seems to be working wonders.
01:15:09Roman's blood cell count has improved dramatically.
01:15:14It's a good thing.
01:15:15Thank God.
01:15:17We'll need to keep him for observation, of course.
01:15:19But I'm optimistic that he's going to make a full recovery.
01:15:24I can't thank you enough, doctor. Really.
01:15:27It's my pleasure.
01:15:28You have a good day.
01:15:33Bye.
01:15:47Shit.
01:15:48I can't let Ethan see me.
01:15:49Not yet.
01:15:59Charlotte.
01:16:00I'm not who you think I am.
01:16:01Let me go.
01:16:02I see you.
01:16:03Okay, where have you been this whole time?
01:16:04You know I've been worried about you?
01:16:05When were you going to tell me the truth?
01:16:08I mean, I'm here. I see everything.
01:16:11Then what else is there to say?
01:16:12I couldn't put our relationship before Roman's life.
01:16:15The vows that we took?
01:16:16Till death do us part.
01:16:17Does that not mean anything to you?
01:16:19We're supposed to be in this together.
01:16:22As partners.
01:16:23No matter what.
01:16:32Bye.
01:16:54I know Ethan has found you.
01:16:56And since you broke our deal,
01:16:58don't blame me for being ruthless.
01:17:01What do you want?
01:17:03Wait!
01:17:06Shit.
01:17:14I'll get people to look for him right away.
01:17:16He couldn't have went far.
01:17:19I can't just sit here and wait.
01:17:20Who knows what she might do next?
01:17:21Charlotte, there is something I think I need to tell you.
01:17:26Charlotte, there is something I think I need to tell you.
01:17:28Ryan told me that not long ago.
01:17:30He saw Sarah speaking to somebody at the coffee shop near the company building.
01:17:34That person looked a little bit like Vanessa.
01:17:36You mean...
01:17:37It seems that Vanessa and Sarah have been plotting something.
01:17:40I'm not sure what.
01:17:41But I do believe that it likely has something to do with Roman.
01:17:45Oh no!
01:17:47Roman might be in danger.
01:17:55Charlotte, wait!
01:17:58Andrew, please not now.
01:18:00Wait!
01:18:02I know where Roman is.
01:18:05What do you know?
01:18:06Vanessa has been out a lot lately.
01:18:09Coming in late, acting suspicious.
01:18:12A few days ago, I called her to find out where she was.
01:18:16Although she didn't tell me,
01:18:17I heard ship horns blaring and a woman's voice.
01:18:21She was talking about kidnapping Roman.
01:18:24I wanted to ask her about it, but she hung up the phone.
01:18:29Ship horns?
01:18:31Were they somewhere near the water?
01:18:33Yes, I think so.
01:18:35I tried to contact you to tell you about it,
01:18:37but you had changed your number.
01:18:39So I've been waiting here,
01:18:41hoping to run into you.
01:18:44I think...
01:18:45I think I know where Roman is.
01:18:47Thank you, Andrew.
01:18:49No problem, Charlotte.
01:18:54What about us...
01:18:56getting back together?
01:19:07Try her birthday.
01:19:08We're running out of time.
01:19:09Try her birthday.
01:19:10Let's try your birthday.
01:19:11My birthday.
01:19:12No, it's not my birthday.
01:19:20Looks like Sarah really is obsessed with you.
01:19:22Charlotte, she's not obsessed with me.
01:19:23Listen, she's nobody to me.
01:19:24Okay, this doesn't mean anything.
01:19:27Let's go.
01:19:28Okay.
01:19:31Mommy, help!
01:19:32Please don't hurt him!
01:19:36Mommy, help!
01:19:38Please don't hurt him!
01:19:39What are we gonna do?
01:19:40It's a kid. Let him go.
01:19:41Just a little bit.
01:19:42Just a tiny drop will be enough to snuff out this little brat's life.
01:19:45Oh, and luckily for him,
01:19:47his mommy and daddy came just in time to see his final moments.
01:19:52What?
01:19:53Oh.
01:19:54Oh.
01:19:55You idiots haven't figured it out yet.
01:19:57Ethan right here is Roman's biological father.
01:20:01Oh, right, right.
01:20:03Yeah, remember that night ten years ago?
01:20:05Yeah, see, I tried to set you up with some vagrant,
01:20:08but you ended up in Ethan Wright's room instead.
01:20:13Well, that doesn't matter now.
01:20:15That little mistake will be erased today.
01:20:19Sorry, Ethan.
01:20:21But if I can't have happiness, I will make sure that you don't either.
01:20:25If you have something to say, you can say it to me.
01:20:28Or let the kid go.
01:20:30I'll do anything. Please just don't hurt him.
01:20:34Really?
01:20:36What do you think?
01:20:38Hmm.
01:20:40Let's see.
01:20:42Will you slap yourself in the face?
01:20:44She's not going to slap herself in the face.
01:20:47Boring.
01:20:49Do you know what would make me feel so much better?
01:20:52What?
01:20:53Just stabbing this little bastard right now.
01:20:57No!
01:20:58Oh, Ethan!
01:20:59Daddy!
01:21:02Oh, nice try. That might work.
01:21:05What was it?
01:21:08Daddy!
01:21:09No, no, no, no, it wasn't me! It was me! It was Sarah!
01:21:11It was this way! It was Sarah!
01:21:13Wait, no! No, it was Vanessa!
01:21:15She's the mastermind! Vanessa!
01:21:25Charlotte.
01:21:28Will you marry me?
01:21:31Yes, of course I will.
01:21:44Mommy, what are you doing?
01:21:48Um, Roman, what are you...
01:21:50Uh, honey?
01:21:51Oh, uh, Roman, what are you doing here?
01:21:53Oh, my goodness.
01:21:54Oh, sorry about that.
01:21:56I must have slipped away.
01:21:58Oh, you too. Carry on. Carry on.
01:22:13You
