Transcript
00:00:00Someone went wild last night.
00:00:29Not too bad, as far as the last night of being single goes.
00:00:32I don't get it, man. Why'd she leave without saying goodbye?
00:00:35Maybe she's on the way to the marriage registry to marry you.
00:00:38Yeah, maybe.
00:00:40So, according to your mother's will, as soon as you get married, you'll receive the share she left for you.
00:00:44So I've arranged for someone for you to have a fake marriage with.
00:00:47I trust your taste.
00:00:53Oh, look at that. The woman who agreed to your fake marriage is already on her way.
00:00:57Whoever she is, with that marriage license, the normal group officially becomes mine.
00:01:01So why didn't you go with what your grandfathers arranged for marriage?
00:01:04Man, I'd much rather be that girl from last night, but I don't know if I'm gonna ever see her again.
00:01:17It's you.
00:01:47If I had known that you were the person I was gonna marry, we could have shared a ride from the hotel.
00:01:51Well, I am short on cash these days, so...
00:01:54Same. I had to borrow the suit.
00:01:57It's a good suit.
00:01:59This is all that I have today. Thank you for coming, and you'll get the rest when we divorce in one year.
00:02:11I guess I deserve an Oscar for my performance today.
00:02:15With the shares from your mother's will, you now own 50% of Laura Group.
00:02:24Inform the whole company. A new era starts today.
00:02:28Sure thing.
00:02:30You murderers, better watch your backs. I'm coming for you.
00:02:36I'm gonna avenge you.
00:02:43With the shares from your mother's will, you now own 50% of Laura Group.
00:02:48I guess it's time to show them who's boss.
00:02:51Yes, boss.
00:03:08What? New presents here?
00:03:24Now?
00:03:25Yes.
00:03:48Renee! Looks like my stepsister decided to crawl back out of hell.
00:03:52Unfortunately for you, I'm here to kick you two out of my mother's company.
00:03:55Your mother's?
00:03:56You know her name means nothing. Now it belongs to my mom.
00:04:00Speaking of her, great job selling off all the company's shares. I'm sure the new president will reward you for that.
00:04:05How did... how did you...
00:04:08That's ridiculous.
00:04:09I think we should settle this in front of everyone.
00:04:14Here they come.
00:04:18As office manager, it is my pleasure to welcome the new president...
00:04:32As office manager, it is my pleasure to welcome the new president...
00:04:38Miss Mara Brown!
00:04:40Who, me?
00:04:41No doubt. Mrs. Brown was the plan B to take over.
00:04:45Are you sure she's the new president of the company?
00:04:48Who else would it be? Your mother from six feet under?
00:04:55Well then you must have the invitation from Norman.
00:04:58What invitation?
00:04:59For the party tonight. They've invited all their business partners, including Laura Group.
00:05:07Of course I do.
00:05:08Great. Then I will see you there.
00:05:13Let's see how long you can keep up the act.
00:05:38Excuse me? How dare you? I'm the president of the Laura Group.
00:05:42I'm sorry, ma'am. I can only accept invitations.
00:05:49Oh, looks like I forgot it at home. Can I speak with your manager?
00:05:54Just admit it, Mara. You're not the president. You don't have an invitation.
00:05:57Where's your invitation then?
00:06:04Damon, help!
00:06:07This skank is trying to bully me because I didn't have an invitation.
00:06:12Don't worry, honeypuff. As the host of this party, I can guarantee no one's going to mess with you.
00:06:19The whole Norman family doesn't welcome someone like you.
00:06:22The host? So that means you're the heir to the Norman family?
00:06:27Yes, I have a lot going on lately.
00:06:33What the fuck are you doing? Get her out of here.
00:06:35Mr. Norman, is that any way to treat a guest?
00:06:42How did you... No, that has to be a fake!
00:06:52May I?
00:06:54How did you... No, that has to be a fake!
00:07:05May I?
00:07:11Damon! Stop her!
00:07:18Really?
00:07:24Dorothy, can you look up Damon Norman for me and top the head of the charity group in here?
00:07:29to the charity group in here?
00:07:52Are you all right, my dear wife?
00:07:56What are you doing here?
00:07:59You're working.
00:08:02What about you?
00:08:04I'm...
00:08:07someone's escort.
00:08:10You do know you're married, right?
00:08:13Of course.
00:08:15I can't just rely on my husband's tips.
00:08:18Your husband sounds like a real jerk.
00:08:20He's the worst.
00:08:22Well, I didn't know this party for dirty rats.
00:08:26I'm gonna die until you show up.
00:08:36Clean that up.
00:08:42Are you really asking me?
00:08:47Are you really asking me?
00:08:49Well, of course I am.
00:08:51I'm the fiance of the heir to the Norman family.
00:08:56What?
00:09:04How could you do that? Do you know how much that costs?
00:09:07Well, with the price of the champagne that's on it,
00:09:09I would say your fur just increased in value.
00:09:21It's my stepsister.
00:09:23Sorry that you had to see that.
00:09:25No worries. All families have issues.
00:09:29You should have let me deal with her.
00:09:31Well, I couldn't let you get in trouble.
00:09:37In return,
00:09:39you could have a little authentic husband experience with me.
00:09:43I couldn't afford that.
00:09:52Get the necklace from the safe.
00:09:54Someone deserves a gift.
00:10:03Here's a gift for Ms. Brown.
00:10:16Oh, that's me.
00:10:18Oh, it's beautiful.
00:10:20I bet Damon got this for me.
00:10:23Much better than an invitation, if I do say so myself.
00:10:26Mara, is that the only way you can make yourself feel valuable?
00:10:30Wait, this is for Ms. Renee Brown?
00:10:34I'm Renee Brown.
00:10:38May I ask who sent this?
00:10:40Sorry, I don't know.
00:10:45You bitch!
00:10:47You set this entire thing up with a fake necklace and everything just to embarrass me!
00:10:51Mara, the only person embarrassing you here is yourself.
00:10:55No one has ever given you a gift because you are an unwanted loser!
00:11:00Unwanted?
00:11:02Says who?
00:11:10Unwanted?
00:11:12Says who?
00:11:16She's with me.
00:11:18Oh, a skank and a server. How fitting.
00:11:21But you know what, sister? I did think you would go with someone more of like a washed up, in his 80s type.
00:11:27No, thank you. But speaking of losers, you should probably go check in with your fiancé.
00:11:32My fiancé is the heir to the Norman Group.
00:11:36One word and he'll have both of you two out on your asses.
00:11:40I would like to see him try.
00:11:43Damon, come to my rescue, please.
00:11:46Hey, what's going on?
00:11:48Hello, Damon. So you're her fiancé, the heir to the Norman Group?
00:11:54Yes, speak with some respect.
00:11:57He's full of lies. He's not the real heir.
00:12:07He's not the real heir.
00:12:09Are you accusing him?
00:12:11Why don't you let him speak for himself?
00:12:14Enough. Not like this. Let's go, come on.
00:12:19Let me spell it out for you two. He's the cousin to the heir.
00:12:23Who likes to use the family name to scam people.
00:12:27How do you know that?
00:12:29Because I'm the real heir.
00:12:31Heir's assistant. Right, Damon?
00:12:37And you know the cost of lying, right, Damon?
00:12:43Yes.
00:12:49Just let me go, please.
00:12:57Damon may have been lying, Mara Brown, but you're not fooling me.
00:13:05Damon may have been lying, Mara Brown, but you're not fooling me.
00:13:08It is not your time to speak, so I would shut it if I were you.
00:13:14Can you tell him to meet me at the ballroom? Thank you.
00:13:18May I speak to the president of the Laura Group?
00:13:21That's me. What do you want?
00:13:23Such an honor to finally meet you.
00:13:25Thank you and your company for the generous donation.
00:13:28It will benefit so many children.
00:13:30Oh, yeah, don't worry about it. It's nothing.
00:13:33Would you prefer the five million as a check or a bank transfer?
00:13:37Five million? What?
00:13:40Your assistant asked me to meet you here.
00:13:42Or you could just sign your name on this contract.
00:13:49You framed me.
00:13:51Well, it's not framing if you're the real president.
00:13:54Unless you're lying.
00:14:02You framed me.
00:14:04Well, it's not framing if you're the real president.
00:14:06Unless you're lying.
00:14:13You know what? I don't feel so well.
00:14:16I don't even think I could pick up that pen.
00:14:18You'll have to find me another day.
00:14:24Mara's a fake. I'm such a fool.
00:14:26Don't be too hard on yourself.
00:14:28Well, where's the real president?
00:14:34I know.
00:14:36The real president...
00:14:39is in the office.
00:14:54Can I have a dance with you?
00:15:01Seems like everyone has trust issues tonight.
00:15:04Do you?
00:15:08Like what?
00:15:10Are you really just an assistant?
00:15:18What about you?
00:15:20Are you really an escort?
00:15:22Where's your client?
00:15:27Seems like everyone has secrets.
00:15:30Sometimes the best solution is to just ignore the problem.
00:15:34At least for tonight.
00:15:37I agree.
00:15:39But I have to admit it'll probably be difficult for me going to suppress my curiosity.
00:15:43Then I guess I'll have to keep you busy.
00:15:45How so?
00:16:07How generous.
00:16:37Dude, Lord Group is dumping our shares.
00:16:44Our stock price is crashing.
00:16:46What?
00:16:54Do we know who the president is yet?
00:16:56I checked every news source. I can't find anything on who the president is.
00:17:03That's impossible.
00:17:05Who is it?
00:17:07Laura Brown?
00:17:09The founder of Laura Group?
00:17:11Didn't she pass away like five years ago?
00:17:13I'm going to get to the bottom of this.
00:17:15Phase one completed.
00:17:17Mara and her mother had heavily invested in Norman Group,
00:17:20so now it's time to watch their assets shrink.
00:17:22By the way, I made the donation in your mother's name.
00:17:25Thank you, Dotty.
00:17:27But I've been meaning to ask,
00:17:29won't doing this also affect Laura Group's assets?
00:17:32Nothing ventured, nothing gained.
00:17:34Don't worry, I have a plan.
00:17:37I trust you, but don't overdo it.
00:17:41I have a feeling I'll be meeting the heir of Norman Group very soon.
00:17:46Dear President, it's time to teach you a lesson.
00:17:58The informant says the president of Laura Group will be here tonight.
00:18:01I'll flush out this rat, I swear.
00:18:08Renee?
00:18:10Parrot, what are you doing here?
00:18:12I'm here to meet with the real president of the Laura Group.
00:18:15Have you seen...
00:18:20Damn, Paul.
00:18:22I forgot my wallet in the car.
00:18:24Why don't you order your drink?
00:18:26It's on me.
00:18:32Are you the one messing with the stocks?
00:18:35You're the president. Shouldn't you be asking yourself that?
00:18:38Well, I just wanted to let you know that we'll be selling off some art pieces to cover the losses.
00:18:44And yeah, that's your mom's last piece.
00:18:47The bid goes for one dollar.
00:18:55And yeah, that's your mom's last piece.
00:18:58That's your mom's last piece.
00:19:00The bid goes for one dollar.
00:19:04I hope you have your invitation for the auction.
00:19:09You crazy bitch!
00:19:13Things are different now, sister.
00:19:15I'm gonna get every single one of her pieces back.
00:19:17This isn't over!
00:19:23Mom, I'm gonna protect your artwork and your company.
00:19:27I promise.
00:19:30Hey, who's got you so down, chica?
00:19:33Leave me alone.
00:19:35You need my company.
00:19:41Leave her alone!
00:19:49Who the fuck?
00:19:50I'm her husband.
00:19:52I get it. Someone's unsatisfied.
00:19:55Fuck!
00:20:05Are you alright?
00:20:07Fine. Thank you.
00:20:14You feeling confident?
00:20:15Let's see.
00:20:20Let us go. Unless you want to see some blood.
00:20:25Come on.
00:20:41They're not there, Dan.
00:20:45Let's go.
00:20:53They're gone.
00:20:55Just to be safe, I think I should hold your hands a little longer.
00:21:00Is just holding my hands enough?
00:21:03Not really.
00:21:06What else do you want?
00:21:26The auction's tomorrow.
00:21:2790% of the items are your mother's belongings, starting at $1.
00:21:34They're trying to humiliate her.
00:21:36And we can't let them get away with this.
00:21:38Yeah, but Mara's definitely gonna have some tricks up her sleeve.
00:21:41Then we need a white knight.
00:21:47Norman!
00:21:56Are you okay? You sounded urgent on the phone.
00:21:59I need to ask you a favor.
00:22:01As long as I can make it happen.
00:22:03I need you to pretend to be the heir of Norman Group.
00:22:11You want me to impersonate the heir of Norman?
00:22:14The heir's assistant. There's no one better for the job.
00:22:17I can ask him for real.
00:22:19These items were supposed to be my mother's legacy.
00:22:22These items were supposed to be my mother's legacy.
00:22:24And then she was kicked out of the group that she founded by Mara's mother.
00:22:28And now they're trying to cash in on her belongings.
00:22:31I need the heir to back you at the auction.
00:22:34You're my only choice.
00:22:41Since you're Laura's daughter, do you know who the new president is?
00:22:47Of course.
00:22:49Who is it?
00:22:53Me.
00:22:59Who is it?
00:23:03Me.
00:23:09I'm sorry, that was a bad joke.
00:23:13Thank goodness the United States aren't comedians.
00:23:16Thank goodness the United States aren't comedians.
00:23:20Enough said.
00:23:22I can help you to get those things back.
00:23:41Are you being watched?
00:23:43Not yet.
00:23:45You're dressed like a secret agent.
00:23:47Mara's met you already.
00:23:49She might recognize you.
00:23:51No way.
00:23:53In this outfit?
00:23:55I barely even recognize myself.
00:24:07Renee.
00:24:16Renee.
00:24:18It's been a long time.
00:24:20Oh, not long enough.
00:24:22Did you even think about saying hello when you got back?
00:24:24Well, I don't exactly fit in with the family of thieves and liars.
00:24:27Isn't that right, Miss President?
00:24:29Oh, sharp tongue just like your mother.
00:24:31I wonder how many auction items you're going to get to buy before you deplete your pocketbook.
00:24:36I wonder what the value of a useless dead body would bring to you tonight.
00:24:40Don't worry.
00:24:42The only thing you can steal from my mother and I is this coward.
00:24:48Welcome to today's auction.
00:24:50Up first, we have a painting by Laura Brown.
00:24:53And we will start the bidding at...
00:24:57One dollar.
00:25:05One hundred thousand.
00:25:08One hundred thousand.
00:25:11One hundred and one thousand.
00:25:13Two hundred thousand.
00:25:14Two hundred and one thousand.
00:25:19Five hundred thousand.
00:25:26Sold! Congratulations, guest number eight, who is the heir of the Norman Group.
00:25:38Sold! Congratulations, Mr. Norman, on securing all the items thus far.
00:25:44Mom, I have to go for him.
00:25:46Oh, dear. Don't rush it. You've got to play hard to get.
00:25:49For the final item this evening, we have a set of matching rings.
00:25:54My mother's wedding rings.
00:25:56They will start at just one dollar.
00:26:00One hundred thousand.
00:26:03One hundred thousand.
00:26:08Do I hear another bid?
00:26:11Sold! Congratulations on securing yet another item.
00:26:21Before you start talking big, you might want to check your bank account.
00:26:25Yeah, you're screwed. Even Norman's heir is on our side.
00:26:29I wouldn't be so sure about that.
00:26:31Congratulations, Ms. Brown. Mr. Norman has transferred all the items in your name.
00:26:36Here's the transfer document.
00:26:41Who's screwed now?
00:26:51Have you met this heir in person?
00:26:52Yeah, why would Mr. Norman help you?
00:26:54Mr. Norman!
00:26:58Wait a second.
00:27:01I knew it! You're the assistant!
00:27:03Assistant? How is the assistant going to pay for all this?
00:27:07About that. According to my mother's will, these items were always mine.
00:27:12And now they're finally back where they belong.
00:27:14I see that.
00:27:17Chloe, I have to thank you for holding this auction.
00:27:20Otherwise, I never would have known where you'd hidden them.
00:27:23That orphanage has taught you quite a bit, hasn't it?
00:27:32All the items today will go to Renee Brown.
00:27:50Thank you. I wouldn't have gotten these back so quickly if it wasn't for you.
00:27:55I was just doing my job, as your husband.
00:27:59I have something for you.
00:28:04Even though this is a marriage of convenience, we should still have rings.
00:28:09Are you sure? It was your mom's.
00:28:12More than ever.
00:28:20Renee Brown, will you marry me?
00:28:29You're too late. I'm already taken.
00:28:37By you.
00:28:44By you.
00:28:58By you.
00:29:29Hello?
00:29:31Wake up, Renee. Norman Group is fighting back.
00:29:34They're buying up our stock in large quantities.
00:29:36What?
00:29:39Are you sure about that?
00:29:41I'm done lying to her.
00:29:43I'm ready to tell her that I'm the one in charge of the Norman Group.
00:29:46Are you sure about that?
00:29:48I'm done lying to her.
00:29:50I'm ready to tell her that I'm the one in charge of the Norman Group.
00:30:00Something urgent?
00:30:01Yeah, it's... I'll explain later.
00:30:10Maybe next time.
00:30:17I didn't see your reservation, Grandpa.
00:30:20I didn't know I needed permission to come to my old office.
00:30:25How's Florida?
00:30:26Not bad.
00:30:28Until I found out that you're married to somebody I don't even know...
00:30:33Yep.
00:30:34My ship has sailed.
00:30:36Nothing you can do about it.
00:30:38Is that so? I've already called Fiona back from Europe.
00:30:43Get ready for your marriage with her.
00:30:45I'm already the head of the Norman Group.
00:30:48Not even you can interfere with my life anymore.
00:30:54You don't know what I'm capable of, young man.
00:31:03It's a good thing we reacted quickly.
00:31:05Damage wasn't too severe.
00:31:08How come we're meeting here and not at your house?
00:31:11Barrett's there.
00:31:13Wait, are you two living together?
00:31:15No, not yet. Still haven't told him.
00:31:22Hello?
00:31:23Are you available tonight? I have something to tell you.
00:31:35What happened?
00:31:36Nothing. Just some family issues.
00:31:39Well, I'm an expert in that.
00:31:43If you are having family issues, you could always come stay at my place.
00:31:49Are you asking me to move in with you?
00:31:52Will you?
00:31:55Barry, I missed you so much.
00:31:58Fiona!
00:32:07It's been so long. You still like black coffee?
00:32:10No, thank you.
00:32:12I admire your devotion.
00:32:15And who is she?
00:32:17This is Renee. She's my...
00:32:19His blind date.
00:32:20Really?
00:32:21Yeah.
00:32:23But I have to think twice about whether to continue.
00:32:26Well, I guess I've been gone for too long.
00:32:29But I came back to marry Barrett. Isn't that right?
00:32:34Fiona, I'm already married and Renee...
00:32:37I know.
00:32:38But Benjamin told me that you're willing to divorce her anytime for me.
00:32:42Is that so? Good to know.
00:32:47Excuse me for a moment. You two can wrap it up.
00:32:52Renee, let me explain first.
00:32:54Explain what?
00:32:56You have a gravely ill grandfather, you have to marry a wealthy woman to pay for his treatment?
00:33:01That is such a cliche, even for a soap opera.
00:33:04Wait! It's not true.
00:33:14Oh, what's going on? You two had a fight?
00:33:17None of your business.
00:33:18Barry, I haven't had time to book a hotel yet. Why don't I stay at your place?
00:33:25Such a gentleman would never say no.
00:33:27Sweet dreams, both of you.
00:33:31Enough! I'm not going to divorce Renee and I'm certainly not going to get married to you.
00:33:35So she's your quickie wife? Now I know why Benjamin called me.
00:33:40She's not a quickie. She's the love of my life.
00:34:00You invited me. No taking backsies.
00:34:31Alright.
00:34:36I thought you were going to leave me.
00:34:38No chance.
00:34:45The thing I fear the most is deceit and betrayal.
00:34:50I know. And I won't do either of those things.
00:34:55Do you promise?
00:34:57I promise.
00:35:01No one kisses me right now.
00:35:16I don't recall ever seeing any jokes in there.
00:35:19No, man. I moved in with Renee.
00:35:22Oh yeah. Totally normal thing to do. For a married couple.
00:35:27Okay, look. I'm just waiting for the right time to properly propose.
00:35:31What do you think about me purchasing the Laura group as a gift for her?
00:35:35You think she'll like it?
00:35:37Oh my god, I hate rich people.
00:35:39Come on, man. I mean it.
00:35:42Look, it was founded by her mom, right?
00:35:44And I know that we still don't know who the president is,
00:35:47but the company deserves to be back in the hands of its rightful owner.
00:35:50Alright, Romeo.
00:35:54The front desk handed this to me.
00:35:56Said it was from someone anonymous.
00:36:01Wait a second.
00:36:03Isn't this the room that me and Renee first met?
00:36:06Don't tell me she's planning on proposing officially as well.
00:36:10We'll see.
00:36:24Renee?
00:36:26Oh, hi.
00:36:34Nice.
00:36:48I just keep loving you more.
00:36:52Me too.
00:36:53What the hell?
00:36:55I can take you there.
00:36:57Hey, don't worry.
00:36:59What happens here stays here.
00:37:01No. You're psychotic.
00:37:04Does she know who you really are?
00:37:07You two are from completely different worlds.
00:37:09There's no future for you and her.
00:37:11Thanks for your input.
00:37:13If you leave, you're gonna regret it.
00:37:15If I stay, I'll regret it.
00:37:17Don't think about pulling any more tricks.
00:37:19I can pull all of your company's investments in a second.
00:37:46You have something for me?
00:37:47I'm sorry, but you deserve to know.
00:37:53I know you're married to him.
00:37:55And I said no at first.
00:37:57But as you know, his passion is unstoppable.
00:38:03Don't be sad over a man who doesn't love you.
00:38:09Is that it?
00:38:11What do you mean?
00:38:13Are you okay with your husband cheating on you?
00:38:15Why not?
00:38:17I already told Renee everything.
00:38:20Your plan failed.
00:38:28Better luck next time.
00:38:31No, stop.
00:38:33That won't work on me.
00:38:35You could make some real money on OnlyFans, though.
00:38:37Go back to Europe, Fiona.
00:38:39And don't ever come back.
00:38:42Renee, do you really trust your husband?
00:38:46Don't bother.
00:38:48I know he has his secrets.
00:38:51And I've got mine.
00:38:54We've promised to give each other space.
00:38:57Enjoy your flight, Fiona.
00:39:11Finally.
00:39:15What's got you so happy?
00:39:19You don't have to wait for tonight.
00:39:21You can't tell me no.
00:39:23You've got to keep some level of surprise and suspense in our relationship.
00:39:26Can I draw on the queen?
00:39:30I don't think so.
00:39:32You can't tell me no.
00:39:34You've got to keep some level of surprise and suspense in our relationship.
00:39:37Can I draw on the queen?
00:39:42Renee, Norman Group just became our largest shareholder.
00:39:45I need you at the office now.
00:39:49Norman.
00:39:57Norman.
00:40:02What's wrong? Something happen?
00:40:04Something urgent just came up. I gotta go.
00:40:07Don't forget to be back by seven.
00:40:09I've got something important planned.
00:40:16What's going on? How did Norman Group buy into our company?
00:40:19Mara and Chloe sold their shares to Norman Group to cash out.
00:40:22Plus the other shares that Norman bought at high prices.
00:40:26Norman Group now owns 50% of the company.
00:40:29Well, do we know who's behind this?
00:40:32The company is now expecting their president out there.
00:40:35Are you sure about this?
00:40:38What are you doing here?
00:40:47What are you doing here?
00:40:50I've been meaning to introduce myself properly.
00:40:52I'm the president of Laura Group.
00:40:55Even if you are the president, I know that you don't have any power because of the Norman Group.
00:41:00What a shame.
00:41:01The Norman Group is well on its way to taking over this company.
00:41:05I wonder how long your struggle will be before your defeat.
00:41:08Security, kick her out.
00:41:10I don't want her going anywhere near the office.
00:41:12Don't let her even take a picture.
00:41:14No, until Norman Group holds their shareholder meeting, I still have control of this company.
00:41:18Let me go.
00:41:19Are you really gonna let them steal from my mom again?
00:41:22It still belongs to our family.
00:41:24Family.
00:41:25How can you use that word, you coward?
00:41:28Well, it looks like the wild child is lacking etiquette.
00:41:32I think you need a lesson.
00:41:36Don't you dare!
00:41:37What?
00:41:44Don't you dare!
00:41:45What?
00:41:50This is my final warning.
00:41:53This is a Brown family matter. You need not get involved.
00:41:56Funny, I don't see myself standing in the Brown family household.
00:42:00Is the heir's assistant always so audacious?
00:42:03Actually, I'm here on behalf of Mr. Norman
00:42:06to appoint Renee as the new president of the Laura Group.
00:42:11Are you serious?
00:42:12You heard me right.
00:42:13Now I assume you would like to clear out these three?
00:42:16I am so sorry, but since you've traded away all of your shares,
00:42:19you no longer have any stake in the Laura Group.
00:42:23Please leave.
00:42:25Let's go, ladies, let's go.
00:42:33Let me get this straight.
00:42:35Norman Group, as the largest shareholder of Laura Group,
00:42:38wants me to be president?
00:42:39Indeed.
00:42:40Well, I don't understand why they would do that.
00:42:42I don't have any connection to them.
00:42:45Except...
00:42:54I don't have any connection to them.
00:42:57Except...
00:43:00Well, I was going to tell you tonight.
00:43:02Actually, I...
00:43:03Are you really just Mr. Norman's assistant?
00:43:05Huh?
00:43:06My relationship to him is through you.
00:43:08How did you convince him to do it?
00:43:10Does he know I've been opposing him the whole time?
00:43:12Opposing him? What do you mean?
00:43:14I should have told you sooner.
00:43:19I've been president of Laura Group all along.
00:43:22Wait, so you're the reason for the stock drop?
00:43:26Well, let's take it as a happy coincidence.
00:43:33It must have taken you a lot to make this happen.
00:43:35You have to let me meet Mr. Norman.
00:43:39Sure, sure.
00:43:42What are you waiting for?
00:43:56Dude, why didn't you come clean back there?
00:43:59It's too much for her to process today.
00:44:01I'll take it to her another day.
00:44:03What are you hesitating for, man?
00:44:05Isn't it a good thing for the husband to be loaded eye candy?
00:44:09Renee isn't shallow like that.
00:44:11If she finds out that she lost to me in this business arrangement,
00:44:15she's not going to be happy.
00:44:16Well, you played the game and you won.
00:44:19She needs to accept that.
00:44:20She can lose, okay?
00:44:22But not to me in disguise.
00:44:24It's different.
00:44:27I guess marriage is hard.
00:44:29Can't wait to see your wedding day.
00:44:35The thing I fear most is deceit and betrayal.
00:44:47Congrats, Renee.
00:44:49I always knew you were something special.
00:44:50Really?
00:44:51Then who was it that mistook Mara for the president?
00:44:54Well, everyone makes mistakes.
00:44:57But that won't happen again now that you're in charge.
00:45:00Whoa, that necklace is gorgeous.
00:45:03Only someone like you could pull it off.
00:45:05What, this?
00:45:06No, this is a knockoff.
00:45:07Barrett gave it to me at a party to show off and I wear it for fun.
00:45:12No way.
00:45:13I've never made mistakes in luxury.
00:45:16There's no chance that's a knockoff.
00:45:18Alright, I'm not going to hold you accountable for the past.
00:45:20You can stop with the flattery.
00:45:21For short, stop sucking up.
00:45:24Don't you have work to be doing?
00:45:26Yeah, yeah, I'm on it.
00:45:28But seriously, that necklace is real.
00:45:31No flattery, just facts.
00:45:38That necklace is real.
00:45:40No flattery, just facts.
00:45:46What if curls are right?
00:45:47How much would that cost?
00:45:48No.
00:45:49Even though he works for Norman Group, something like this would still be a stretch.
00:45:54You must.
00:45:55Because I'm the real heir.
00:45:57This is my sister.
00:45:59I came back to marry Barrett.
00:46:00I was going to tell you tonight, actually.
00:46:05No, Barrett is nothing like those trust fund kids.
00:46:11Hold on.
00:46:14The necklace is real.
00:46:15Look, your Barrett is Barrett Norman, the heir to the Norman Group.
00:46:24Dude, don't bother confessing.
00:46:27Looks like someone already did it for you.
00:46:30What?
00:46:31Who did this?
00:46:39Get the PR team in here.
00:46:40I want this article redacted and any rumors squashed immediately.
00:46:46Uh, you have a visitor.
00:46:48Not now!
00:46:54So the article was true.
00:46:57Let me explain.
00:46:58I was going to tell you earlier, but then I found out that you were the...
00:47:01Well, I found out that I was the president of the company you acquired.
00:47:04Your defeated opponent, right?
00:47:06Not true.
00:47:07Then what is the truth?
00:47:08Were you afraid to hurt my pride?
00:47:10Or was it just fun for you to watch me be fooled?
00:47:13You don't get it, Renee.
00:47:14I acquired the Lord Group for you as a gift.
00:47:17I know how important it is to you and your mom.
00:47:19Hey, don't talk about my mother!
00:47:21I don't get it.
00:47:22You were so excited about this before you knew who I was.
00:47:24So why not now?
00:47:25Because I don't need your mercy!
00:47:27I had a plan.
00:47:28I was capable of doing it myself.
00:47:29I was your husband.
00:47:30I wanted to help you to carry the burden.
00:47:32Is that so wrong?
00:47:34No.
00:47:36Not anymore.
00:47:40What's that supposed to mean?
00:47:46Have your lawyer contact mine.
00:47:48We're getting a divorce.
00:47:50Renee.
00:47:52Renee.
00:47:58Did you really mean it about the divorce?
00:48:00Shouldn't you two talk things over?
00:48:01What is there to talk about?
00:48:03We're just different kinds of people.
00:48:05Pretty much the same to me.
00:48:07Both executives, both enjoy identity games.
00:48:10I thought that you were supposed to be on my side.
00:48:12I am.
00:48:15I feel like you're being a little too impulsive.
00:48:17If Barrett had known you as the president,
00:48:19maybe he wouldn't have acted like this.
00:48:21He would have assisted you in a different way.
00:48:23Maybe that's my issue.
00:48:26The Browns think money can solve anything.
00:48:29Including love and dignity.
00:48:33I don't know if Barrett's like that too.
00:48:36You do.
00:48:38You know deep down Barrett isn't like that.
00:48:48Should I trust you, Barrett?
00:48:51No.
00:48:59Renee.
00:49:00What do I have to do to get you back?
00:49:22Renee.
00:49:23You're back.
00:49:25I'm sorry. I did it out of love for you.
00:49:28Please forgive me.
00:49:30It's okay.
00:49:31I have my faults too.
00:49:33So you're not divorcing me?
00:49:35Why should I?
00:49:37I'm not dreaming, am I?
00:49:43No.
00:49:44This is real.
00:49:47Okay.
00:49:48Let's get you to bed.
00:49:58Relax.
00:49:59Come here, Renee.
00:50:16I'm sorry.
00:50:29Fiona.
00:50:31What the hell are you doing here?
00:50:37What the hell are you doing here?
00:50:40Don't you remember?
00:50:42It was you who suggested we get together last night.
00:50:44What?
00:50:45No way. Last night it was...
00:50:47It was Renee.
00:50:50It was you.
00:50:52Don't get close to me.
00:50:56And keep your mouth shut.
00:50:57If you don't, I won't let you live it down.
00:51:16Where are the photos?
00:51:22You seem... not mad.
00:51:24He made his decision.
00:51:26Aren't you guys getting a divorce?
00:51:28You seem well informed.
00:51:30Regardless, Barrett is still a shareholder in my company,
00:51:33and it's my job to protect our reputation from people like you.
00:51:38Well...
00:51:40I admire your courage.
00:51:42Well...
00:51:44I admire your sanity.
00:51:48Have a drink with me, and I'll give you all the photos.
00:51:51And I'll leave Barrett alone.
00:52:07Did you drug me?
00:52:09Yes.
00:52:11I did.
00:52:13And by the way,
00:52:15I was the one who wrote the article revealing Barrett's identity.
00:52:31Renee?
00:52:34Yeah.
00:52:39Remember to sign these papers.
00:52:42The company rightfully belongs to you.
00:52:45That was my promise.
00:52:48Maybe my last one.
00:53:03I love you.
00:53:09Mr. Norman?
00:53:11What are you doing here? Where's Renee?
00:53:13I need your help. Renee's missing.
00:53:15Missing?
00:53:17Missing?
00:53:31Do we really have to?
00:53:33She's still my daughter.
00:53:35Zip it. Do you want the money or not?
00:53:37Dad, as long as she's willing to sign, we'll let her go.
00:53:48You must be starving.
00:53:51You know I'm allergic to nuts, right?
00:53:58Look, Renee.
00:54:00Just sign the documents.
00:54:02Sign your shares over to Chloe, and I guarantee she'll let you go.
00:54:07Let me go?
00:54:09Did you give my mom that choice?
00:54:11Just kill me, if you dare.
00:54:17I'm sorry.
00:54:26My detectives are still searching.
00:54:28But her last location update was 12 hours ago.
00:54:31All right. Keep me in the loop.
00:54:40What are you doing here?
00:54:42Barry, why do you look so stressed?
00:54:45How did you get in?
00:54:47I just walked in. As your fiancé.
00:54:49Get out.
00:54:51You're the last person I want to see right now.
00:54:57Kick me out, and you'll never see her again.
00:55:03Where is she?
00:55:05She's alive.
00:55:07For now.
00:55:09But only if you agree to one condition.
00:55:12What do you want?
00:55:15Marry me.
00:55:23What do you want?
00:55:26Marry me.
00:55:29You're sick.
00:55:30You kidnapped Renee just so that you could marry me?
00:55:34Don't flatter yourself.
00:55:36It was never you that I wanted.
00:55:38What do you mean?
00:55:40Well, ever since I was born, everyone swore to me that I was going to be the future Mrs. Norman.
00:55:46So this is all just about power.
00:55:48Exactly.
00:55:50Blame it on being the head of the Norman Company.
00:55:53You were always destined to be my husband.
00:56:00Take your time to think about it.
00:56:02But not too long.
00:56:04She's got a lot of enemies.
00:56:11Enemies?
00:56:15Paul, find Damon for me. Right now.
00:56:24Go after him!
00:56:30Just give me three days, and I'll get your money back. I promise.
00:56:34Where is Maura Brown?
00:56:37I wouldn't know. She broke up with me a long time ago.
00:56:42So you want me to call your creditors over here?
00:56:44Okay, okay. But I swear I had nothing to do with the kidnapping.
00:56:49How much do you know?
00:56:50Maura asked me to help, but I didn't. I didn't.
00:56:54Wait. Then how could you know where she is?
00:56:56I have Maura's GPS. This is her location.
00:57:07Okay.
00:57:13We can't tip them off until we make our move.
00:57:21I agree to get engaged with you.
00:57:26Paul, you need a new suit.
00:57:37I'm sorry.
00:57:49Didn't Miss Norman just get married? Why is he getting engaged again?
00:57:53It's a business marriage. It's pretty common.
00:57:58If you're going to act, do it right.
00:58:01I'm not as fake as you. I can't pull it off.
00:58:06Make me happy, and that woman might stay alive.
00:58:16Excuse me, Your Majesty. I have a very important phone call to make. I'll be back.
00:58:32I need her dead. Now.
00:58:36Now.
00:58:42I have a very important phone call to make. I'll be back.
00:58:50Here's the keys to your rental. It'll keep them from spotting you.
00:58:53Thanks, man. I really appreciate you coming through for this.
00:58:57You gotta hurry, okay? I don't want to be here for too long.
00:59:01Go.
00:59:02Thanks, buddy.
00:59:03Okay. Go. Hurry.
00:59:07Go kill her. Fiona will hand the company over to us.
00:59:10Do it fast, Dad. We'll meet you outside.
00:59:17I'm so sorry, Renee.
00:59:29I'm so sorry, Renee.
00:59:36Sorry? Did you ever feel sorry for my mother?
00:59:39It was my fault. I had no choice.
00:59:42But you did. And you chose to sacrifice her.
00:59:47Just do it. I'm ready.
00:59:50Oh, my God.
01:00:03Renee. Oh, my God. Are you all right?
01:00:08Let's get you out of here.
01:00:09Not so fast.
01:00:12Toodle-oo, lovebirds.
01:00:20What took you so long?
01:00:30Where's Barret?
01:00:34I'm here.
01:00:46Not so fast.
01:00:49Toodle-oo, lovebirds.
01:00:59Game over.
01:01:07You're alive?
01:01:08You seem surprised.
01:01:12What happened to you?
01:01:13Why don't you ask Fiona?
01:01:14I didn't do anything.
01:01:15This was a set-up.
01:01:16Maybe you should ask them instead.
01:01:27Uncle Ben, help me.
01:01:29Weren't you always on my side?
01:01:32Well, I'm no longer your head of the family.
01:01:36Do whatever you need to do.
01:01:39Hey, let go of me.
01:01:42Hey, let go of me.
01:01:50This isn't over.
01:01:58Till death do us part.
01:02:00Till death do us part.
