00:00:05Housekeeping.
00:00:06♪
00:00:13Oh my god.
00:00:16♪
00:00:32Ava, screw the other guy. I found a new target.
00:00:35Who is that?
00:00:37Shh. You'll wake him.
00:00:39Okay, but who is that?
00:00:41I have no clue.
00:00:43Ava.
00:00:45It's fine. It's fine. I'm just going to leave before he wakes up.
00:00:48It's like it never happened.
00:00:50What's this new target you're talking about?
00:00:52We got a new CEO and he owns the hotel.
00:00:55Plus he's hot and he's like royalty.
00:00:58Isn't he perfect?
00:01:00I mean, I think his family like owns countries or something.
00:01:03♪
00:01:08I slept with our CEO.
00:01:10♪
00:01:14Please, I can't believe you have the nerve to walk out on me.
00:01:17Just cancel the room.
00:01:19Chloe, I can't. It's past cancellation time.
00:01:21Just say it to Claire Claire.
00:01:23I can't. They're cracking down on things.
00:01:25And with the hotel getting acquired, I could get fired.
00:01:27Ava, you know I can't pay for the room.
00:01:29Maybe you should have thought of that before you booked a $5,000 night suite to bone some rich guy.
00:01:34He stiffed me.
00:01:36In more ways than one.
00:01:38Please, I'll pay you back.
00:01:40I can't. And it's under my name. I can't pay for it or management will fire me.
00:01:43I need this job for my mom.
00:01:45I don't have that kind of money.
00:01:47What kind of money?
00:01:49Chloe, what are you doing here?
00:01:52I have to get back to work.
00:01:54Chloe!
00:01:56I can't wait till this place sells and we don't have to deal with the idiots.
00:01:59Ava, I see we have a guest in the presidential suite.
00:02:03Good. I'll be keeping track of it.
00:02:07♪
00:02:11Wow. Your best friend just cost you $5,000?
00:02:16What am I supposed to do with a $5,000 night suite?
00:02:20I mean, if you have to pay for it, you might as well enjoy it.
00:02:25♪
00:02:46I guess I'm just drinking my way into debt at this point.
00:02:51Ahem.
00:02:56Beep. Beep. Beep.
00:02:58Beep. Beep. Beep.
00:03:01Who is that?
00:03:07Looks like my night just got better.
00:03:10Excuse me. I'm sorry.
00:03:17Do you like tequila?
00:03:19Mm-hmm.
00:03:21Mm-hmm.
00:03:23♪
00:03:30I'm so excited.
00:03:32♪
00:04:02♪
00:04:17I slept with our CEO!
00:04:20Chloe!
00:04:22What do I do?
00:04:25Go. I'll cover for you.
00:04:27What?
00:04:29Your hotel comes down really hard on anyone that sleeps with management.
00:04:32If he finds out it was you, you're gonna get fired.
00:04:35I'm already in deep shit with Christine.
00:04:38You go. I'll pay for the room and put it under my name.
00:04:45I can't believe she bought it.
00:04:48♪
00:04:57I won't need this shitty job when I'm a duchess.
00:05:01Wait.
00:05:04I didn't get your name.
00:05:06Now I offer you a reason to chase me, my prince.
00:05:12Hey.
00:05:15♪
00:05:28Chloe Archer.
00:05:31♪
00:05:36♪
00:05:42What's going on?
00:05:44Our new CEO is keeping a secretary.
00:05:48Whoever gets it gets a raise.
00:05:51I wouldn't torture yourself with mine.
00:05:54Ava, you're not exactly executive material.
00:05:57I heard he's a real duke from England.
00:05:59I've never seen a real aristocrat before.
00:06:01Do you think he wears an ascot?
00:06:03Has an accent?
00:06:05I read that his entire family's estate is the size of Manhattan.
00:06:09And he owns over a dozen hotels.
00:06:12He fired the entire Bellhair staff after two days.
00:06:16Clifford Harrington offered me the VP position in his luxury chain hotel group.
00:06:21As soon as the acquisition was settled,
00:06:23the Sinclair family has owned us for years
00:06:25and suddenly Daddy makes him CEO and he's here meddling.
00:06:28I cannot let him get in the way of this sale.
00:06:32But boss, if you could recommend me as his secretary,
00:06:36I think it could help you keep an eye on him.
00:06:39It wouldn't hurt to have a friend in the duke's office.
00:06:46What are you staring at?
00:06:48Don't you have work to do?
00:06:50Weren't you wearing that yesterday?
00:06:52Your hair looks like you stuck your finger in a socket.
00:06:54Brush it!
00:06:56Why are you wearing one earring?
00:06:59It must have fallen off.
00:07:02How did the guests enjoy the presidential suite?
00:07:05I can't tell her I fucked my boss in the presidential suite.
00:07:08Who stayed there?
00:07:10Speak up!
00:07:12I don't remember his name.
00:07:21I better hide my ass so he doesn't see me.
00:07:29I better hide my ass so he doesn't see me.
00:07:38Speak of the devil.
00:07:40Mr. Sinclair! Your Highness!
00:07:42Can I call you Your Highness? Duke!
00:07:44Can I please take a selfie with you?
00:07:47Of course.
00:07:49Okay, thank you.
00:07:55She's filed.
00:07:57Security.
00:07:58No, please, please. I worked really hard.
00:08:00He fired someone over a selfie?
00:08:03He definitely can't find out we slept together.
00:08:06Your Grace, it is an honor to have you here.
00:08:09I am Christine Bernard.
00:08:11Yes, I know who you are. Your reputation precedes you.
00:08:14You've been the GM for the last five years
00:08:16and helped in the acquisition of this hotel.
00:08:18Well done.
00:08:20Since you're new here, I would like to offer you my secretary Kate to assist you.
00:08:24Mr. Sinclair, great to be working with you.
00:08:28Yes, I will need a new secretary, but I prefer to choose my own.
00:08:33By the way, I am calling off the acquisition.
00:08:36We're no longer selling.
00:08:38You can't call it off. I've already signed a deal memo with Mr. Arrington.
00:08:43My family owns this hotel, Miss Bernard,
00:08:45so I assure you I can do whatever I want.
00:08:47Now, if you wish to keep your position,
00:08:49I suggest you don't mention this sale again.
00:08:52As you wish, Your Grace.
00:08:56Mr. Sinclair will do just fine.
00:08:58No need to suck it up.
00:09:07Mr. Sinclair, these are all the candidates for the secretary position.
00:09:16Please don't see me. Please don't see me.
00:09:19You there!
00:09:23Have we met? Is it her?
00:09:26I'm sorry, Mr. Sinclair.
00:09:29Sir, I'm not sure what you mean.
00:09:39Very odd, you.
00:09:46I want her.
00:09:47Excuse me?
00:09:49I want her.
00:09:50Excuse me?
00:09:52I want her.
00:09:53Excuse me?
00:09:54You're to be my new secretary.
00:09:56Should you accept?
00:09:57No. No. No, sir.
00:10:00I'm just not capable.
00:10:02Ava Grant?
00:10:03Why her? She's just a stupid desk girl.
00:10:08Why her?
00:10:09She's the only one who didn't throw herself at Mr. Sinclair.
00:10:14Thank you so much for the offer, but I can't accept the job.
00:10:19Whatever.
00:10:20Someone else would gladly take it at $20,000 per month.
00:10:29$20,000?
00:10:31That's more than I make in six months.
00:10:33Yes, for sure, I'd be honored to be Mr. Sinclair's secretary.
00:10:44But how the hell am I supposed to hide who I am from my boss when he's my actual boss?
00:10:52Did you find her?
00:10:53Miss Archer was just fired for having an affair with the guest.
00:10:57Apparently it took place on the premises and involved booking a suite at the hotel.
00:11:01What guest?
00:11:02I think it's you, sir.
00:11:04The room you accidentally walked into last night was booked in her name.
00:11:08She was fired because of me?
00:11:15Screw you, Christine!
00:11:18There's nothing wrong with sleeping with a rich guy.
00:11:21It's not my fault you can't get laid.
00:11:26Ava, did you lock yourself out again?
00:11:30Coming!
00:11:32Ava, did you lock yourself out again?
00:11:36Coming!
00:11:41Oh my God, what am I going to do?
00:11:54Can I help you?
00:11:55Oh my God, her eyes are bloodshot. She's been crying.
00:11:59Chloe, Miss Archer, I'm Edmund Sinclair. We met last night.
00:12:04Now is not a good time.
00:12:06I just wanted to apologize for your losing your job.
00:12:09I appreciate the apology, but I don't really know what else we have to talk about.
00:12:16Please, let me make it up to you.
00:12:22Are you going on a trip?
00:12:23What's he talking about?
00:12:25Oh, he thought I was leaving.
00:12:30Well, without a job, I can no longer pay the rent on my own, and I can't move home because my parents are dead.
00:12:41So I have to find a cheaper place by tomorrow.
00:12:44Listen, I appreciate you coming, but last night was a mistake.
00:12:49Let's just pretend it never happened.
00:12:51Besides, it's not like someone can magically give me my job back.
00:12:57Actually, I can. It's my hotel.
00:13:00Your hotel?
00:13:02Mr. Sinclair is the owner and new CEO.
00:13:05Oh my gosh, that's so embarrassing. I had no idea.
00:13:09I'd be happy to have you rehired.
00:13:11I can't work with Ava. She'll blow my cover.
00:13:13Thank you, but I don't think I can stand the gossip going back.
00:13:18I'd rather be homeless with my dignity.
00:13:21I just need to get back on my feet.
00:13:26Well, would you like to live with me?
00:13:29Just until you get a new job.
00:13:31Gone and good. Oscar worthy.
00:13:34Do you need to get that?
00:13:42Do you need to get that?
00:13:43Oh, I'm sure it's a telemarketer.
00:13:45He can't know I live with Ava.
00:13:47Actually, um, it's my sister.
00:13:50She's just been so concerned about me since everything happened.
00:13:54One sec.
00:13:57Chloe, I just got promoted.
00:13:59Hey, I can't really talk right now. Can we catch up later?
00:14:01Wait, wait, are you home? I really want to celebrate with you.
00:14:04Yeah, I am. Okay, cool, bye.
00:14:14Do you live here with anyone?
00:14:15Nope, just me. Paying the rent all by myself.
00:14:20Well, as I said, if you'd like to live with me, the offer stands.
00:14:36Oh my gosh, I'm moving in!
00:14:50Woo!
00:15:13What's a car like that doing in our neighborhood?
00:15:15You became our CEO's secretary?
00:15:18Yeah, $20,000 per month.
00:15:21That's enough to cover my mom's medical bills.
00:15:23Just be careful.
00:15:25Women are disposable to rich guys like that.
00:15:28Who knows what he really wants.
00:15:31It's a little hypocritical, don't you think?
00:15:34How many times have I warned you about all the rich dudes you date and now you're giving me advice?
00:15:38I mean, I know he's a duke or whatever, but I'm just trying to protect you.
00:15:42I know he's a duke or whatever, but I'm just trying to protect you.
00:15:45Trying to protect me from the guy that was your target this morning.
00:15:48I was joking. I'm not interested in him anymore.
00:15:51I don't need some guy to pay my bills.
00:15:54Besides, I have good news too.
00:15:56I got a job, and I'm moving out!
00:15:59Really? What job? You weren't even looking, you just got fired.
00:16:04Wait, and why do you need to move out?
00:16:06Why are you questioning me? Why can't you just be happy for me?
00:16:09Yesterday you spent like three months salary on a room to bone some rich guy.
00:16:13Now there's a town car outside, and suddenly you have a new job and you're moving out.
00:16:18I think it's fair for me to be concerned.
00:16:20What the hell are you insinuating?
00:16:22Do you think I'm just another shameless gold digger like everybody else?
00:16:26You don't give a shit about me. I'm not a whore!
00:16:28I know! I'm sorry. I'm sorry. Look, that's not what I meant. Let's just talk about it.
00:16:32I'm done. I'm done.
00:16:35Is that your new job?
00:16:40You know what? You just don't want me to move out because you're worried I won't pay you your precious money.
00:16:44Well, here.
00:16:52What's this?
00:16:53I paid for your little hotel room and cleaned up your mess with your special guest.
00:16:58I'm done with you.
00:17:03Good evening! Nurse Bailey, how's my mom?
00:17:05Your mother is fine. I'm calling because your mother's medical bill is nearly past due.
00:17:09If you don't pay in one week, we're going to have to release her.
00:17:12No! No, no, no. I'm sorry. I'll pay the entire balance as soon as possible. I promise you.
00:17:26Hey, Jackoff! Hold the elevator!
00:17:29Woo-hoo!
00:17:34I'm sorry, Miss Grant. I'm not familiar with the American term, Jackoff, if you'd care to explain it to me.
00:17:41I'm sorry, Miss Grant. I'm not familiar with the American term, Jackoff, if you'd care to explain it to me.
00:17:47Um, never mind. Good morning, Mr. Sinclair.
00:17:53I just got word from her that she's decided to move in.
00:17:57What should I introduce her to all the staff?
00:18:00Friends?
00:18:03He called the girl who's going to move into his house a friend? What a jerk.
00:18:09Richmen really are something. He slept with me and he had a girlfriend.
00:18:14Mr. Sinclair needs you to help his friend move.
00:18:18Asshole.
00:18:19Of course.
00:18:20Perfect chance to see what kind of woman this future duchess is.
00:18:25I'll confirm with her and send you her address.
00:18:30Hello.
00:18:31Miss Archer, Mr. Sinclair's secretary will come to help you move. What time is convenient for you?
00:18:36His secretary? He means Ava.
00:18:39No need. I don't have much, so I can do it. Thanks, though. I'll see you soon.
00:18:46Oh, my God. This is the last time I'm ever doing this myself.
00:18:54Welcome, Miss Chloe.
00:18:56Ow! Oh, my God!
00:19:04Could you guys...
00:19:07Sorry, I'm a bit off in my lane.
00:19:14Oh, my God.
00:19:16Oh, my God.
00:19:18Oh, my God.
00:19:20Oh, my God.
00:19:21Oh, my God.
00:19:22Oh, my God.
00:19:24Oh!
00:19:26Can't wait for this fabulous new life.
00:19:31Hashtag...
00:19:33YOLO.
00:19:35Heart eyes emoji.
00:19:38Here we are.
00:19:40Your bedroom.
00:19:46This is Edmund's bedroom?
00:19:48No.
00:19:50But I'm supposed to be living with Edmund.
00:19:52Oh, I'm sorry, Miss. The Duke asked that you stay in this wing.
00:19:55His quarters are off limits to you.
00:19:58Well, that's nonsense.
00:20:01What are you still doing here?
00:20:04Actually...
00:20:06Draw me a bath and Instagrab me a green juice.
00:20:10Now.
00:20:17I don't know how you do business over there, but here...
00:20:20Once the deal memo is signed, there's no turning back.
00:20:24Either move forward to the final agreement within one week or pay the penalty, which is $20 million.
00:20:33Those are the options.
00:20:35Oh, my God!
00:20:36What are you doing?
00:20:37You can't even deliver coffee. Get out!
00:20:40Oh, I'm sorry?
00:20:42His shirt is worth more than you.
00:20:44Stupid idiot.
00:20:46My apologies. Are you burned? Do we need to call an EMT?
00:20:48I'm fine. It's not her fault.
00:20:51Christine, speak to my secretary that way again and you'll be fine.
00:20:55She answers to me, not you. Be clear.
00:20:59I'm really sorry, sir.
00:21:03Sorry about your coffee.
00:21:05I'm Clifford Harrington and you're...?
00:21:08Eva Grant.
00:21:10I apologize again about your shirt. Please, let me get it dry cleaned.
00:21:15Is there something wrong, Miss?
00:21:18Mr. Harrington?
00:21:20No, you just remind me of someone.
00:21:23Eva Grant, is it?
00:21:25Yes, Mr. Harrington.
00:21:29I don't mean to speak out of turn, but when I was listening to the meeting, something dawned on me.
00:21:37Go ahead.
00:21:39Even though JPG Chains may not acquire M Hotel, we could still be close partners.
00:21:44There may be something to salvage here.
00:21:45What the hell do you know about corporate partnerships?
00:21:49I apologize. She is not qualified to even be in here. She should be a janitor.
00:21:55Watch it, Christine.
00:21:57I'm willing to come back to the table, but only to hear Miss Grant's proposal.
00:22:05What the fuck?
00:22:07No, no, Mr. Harrington. There is nothing to discuss.
00:22:10We have signed a deal memo. It is too late to back out of the acquisition.
00:22:16Things change.
00:22:18You mean to tell me you're willing to walk away from the hotel acquisition?
00:22:24If I see a collaboration plan I can't refuse, yes.
00:22:30In that case, we'll do our very best to provide you with a plan that satisfies you.
00:22:35Won't we, Miss Grant?
00:22:37Of course, Mr. Harrington.
00:22:41Amazing job, Ava.
00:22:44Why did Clifford change his mind because of my secretary?
00:22:48I'll see you soon.
00:22:50I'll go.
00:22:53You little bitch. You just killed my promotion.
00:22:58I swear I'm going to make your life a living hell.
00:23:01You will be scrubbing toilets when I'm done with you.
00:23:11It can't be.
00:23:13Vic, where are you?
00:23:19Mr. Green, one of our shareholders, is throwing a party at 8 p.m. tonight.
00:23:23Mr. Clair would like you to go with him.
00:23:25As his driver?
00:23:27His guest.
00:23:29His guest?
00:23:31Mr. Green.
00:23:33Mr. Green.
00:23:35Mr. Green.
00:23:37Mr. Green.
00:23:39Mr. Green, allow me to introduce Miss Ava Grant.
00:23:43Edmund, nice to meet you.
00:23:46I didn't know you were bringing your girlfriend.
00:23:48No, no, I'm not his...
00:23:50Miss Grant is my secretary.
00:23:52Oh, lucky for me.
00:23:54Well, I know this is a work event, so you can still have a good time.
00:23:58Oh, trust me, you don't want to see me drink.
00:24:01Oh, no, I do.
00:24:03Since we're going to be working together, I think we should get a chance to know each other.
00:24:07Now, if you can out-drink me, Miss Grant, I'll agree to work exclusively with M Hotels.
00:24:27If that bet stands, then I'll do all the drinking tonight for Miss Grant.
00:24:32Now, if you'll excuse me, Miss Grant, we would like to discuss the Oasis project in Vegas.
00:24:45Mr. Sinclair, are you okay?
00:24:48Look, I know you were trying to protect me and the Brits can drink,
00:24:51but if you can't handle your liquor, you should really stop.
00:24:54You were at least functional last time.
00:24:56What do you mean, last time?
00:24:59What do you mean, the last time?
00:25:01Sorry, sir?
00:25:03You said the last time you saw me drunk.
00:25:06Now you're just drunk and making things up. We should really get you home.
00:25:13Oh, come on. Let's get you inside.
00:25:24I'm going to get you some water, okay?
00:25:27You smell nice.
00:25:30I have to go. Good night.
00:25:38Mr. Sinclair.
00:25:45You little slut.
00:25:48You little slut.
00:25:55Have a good night.
00:25:57Ava.
00:26:00I didn't think you had it in you, Ava. Stealing my man in my home.
00:26:11It's okay, sweetie. I won't bite you.
00:26:13I won't bite you.
00:26:16You don't smell right.
00:26:19What do you mean? It's me, your girlfriend.
00:26:22That's too good to be true.
00:26:29You're not my girlfriend, alright?
00:26:33You're here out of my kindness and when you get a job, you're out.
00:26:38Do you understand?
00:26:44Chloe, are you home?
00:26:49Oh, my God. She moved out?
00:26:54Smell right? What's that supposed to mean?
00:26:58This is designer perfume. There's only like 500 bottles in the world.
00:27:05What's up?
00:27:07Chloe, where are you?
00:27:09I told you I moved.
00:27:11I didn't think you were serious.
00:27:13Actually, I have a question for you.
00:27:15I'm looking for a new perfume and I always really liked yours.
00:27:21What do you wear?
00:27:23Where'd you get it?
00:27:25I think it's some generic brand. I think I got it at Nordstrom Rack.
00:27:29Well, could you send me a picture?
00:27:31I'm sorry we fought. I really miss you.
00:27:35Wearing your perfume makes me think of you.
00:27:37Maybe we'll let Ava smell.
00:27:39I miss you too.
00:27:40Okay, perfect. Well, I gotta go. I'm really tired. Bye.
00:27:44Hello?
00:27:46Chloe?
00:27:48What is going on with her?
00:27:54Ava, you're too easy.
00:27:56Nordstrom Rack? This is trash. Why does anyone like it?
00:28:00Good night, madam.
00:28:02Oh, you. I need this perfume on my bedside table when I wake up.
00:28:07But stores are closed.
00:28:08That's a you problem.
00:28:19Good morning, Mrs. Lecrae.
00:28:21James.
00:28:23Are you alright?
00:28:25Ah, I was bitten by my dog last night. Just rough housing.
00:28:30I didn't know you had a dog, sir.
00:28:33I guess I'm the dog. Wolf, asshole.
00:28:36You know what they say, Mr. Sinclair.
00:28:39Dogs don't bite people unless they're provoked.
00:28:50What are they talking about?
00:29:00Hey, you.
00:29:03Go fetch me my package from the mail room.
00:29:07You deaf?
00:29:09Receptionist. I'm talking to you.
00:29:12You know she's clumsy and useless.
00:29:15Are you sure you didn't want her to grab your package?
00:29:17Probably has a disease.
00:29:19Miss Bernard, first of all, I'm no longer the receptionist.
00:29:24Secondly, I don't take orders from you anymore.
00:29:28You have your own secretary, so I suggest you ask her.
00:29:32Bravo.
00:29:33You've been the CEO's secretary for three days.
00:29:36You think you can talk to me like that?
00:29:38Get out of my way.
00:29:40I heard about your mom.
00:29:42If you get fired, they're going to have to unplug all those machines.
00:29:44And she'll die.
00:29:46It must be shitty having a daughter like you.
00:29:48One more word about my mom and I swear to God I'll slap you.
00:29:52I dare you, you ungrateful little bitch.
00:29:55Christine will have to fire you. She'll have no choice.
00:29:58Let's test it.
00:30:03Ah! Ah!
00:30:06She hit me! Fire her!
00:30:09Unfortunately, I can't right now.
00:30:13But let's be realistic.
00:30:15That bop of a man is on vacation.
00:30:17And when he goes back to England, you are fired.
00:30:20And then we get unplugged.
00:30:23How am I going to get fired if you get fired first?
00:30:27What would Mr. Sinclair do if he found out you negotiated a VP job
00:30:31with JPG Chains while you still collect money from his company?
00:30:37You shameless slut.
00:30:40You reek of desperation.
00:30:44I think you need a shower.
00:30:46Don't you agree?
00:30:58What's going on?
00:31:00Nothing.
00:31:02Crap. I forgot I have to try the Instacort. I've got to go.
00:31:05Follow me.
00:31:09I keep these here for after I go to the gym.
00:31:12I'm really fine. It's not necessary.
00:31:14Come on.
00:31:24Mr. Sinclair.
00:31:27Thank you, Mr. Sinclair, for your help.
00:31:34Am I interrupting something?
00:31:36Don't you have to knock?
00:31:44So who's this rich guy Chloe's marrying?
00:31:51Marrying?
00:31:53She said she found a new job and moved out.
00:31:55Wait, you didn't know?
00:31:58Oh my god, you have to look at this.
00:32:00It's so hilarious.
00:32:02Why does this house look familiar?
00:32:05I'm sure all rich people's houses look similar.
00:32:08Look at her feet. It's like all over.
00:32:15What the hell?
00:32:17She blocked me.
00:32:20What?
00:32:22That's weird.
00:32:23Weird?
00:32:25You know what?
00:32:27She's definitely going to be at our class reunion.
00:32:29I know you hated school, but you should come with.
00:32:32Go talk to her. Find out what the hell is going on.
00:32:43Is that Ava Grant?
00:32:45I thought she was too cool for these things.
00:32:47Hey, Ava.
00:32:49I heard you finally got a position at M Hotel.
00:32:51Congrats.
00:32:53Isn't that owned by the aristocracy?
00:32:55What are you doing, Ava?
00:32:57Don't get too excited.
00:32:59She's just a receptionist.
00:33:01Don't be so rude.
00:33:04A receptionist is a perfectly good position
00:33:06for someone who isn't intelligent
00:33:08and wants to sleep her way to the top.
00:33:10Wow, so is that what you think of me too, Julianne?
00:33:13You know what?
00:33:15Why don't you just shut the fuck up, both of you.
00:33:17Ava's the CEO's secretary now.
00:33:19She's making more money in a month
00:33:21than you both are making in a year.
00:33:23So I guess you did sleep your way to the top.
00:33:26Doesn't surprise me.
00:33:28Makes sense, since you were voted
00:33:30most likely to lie on her back in high school.
00:33:33Hey, Julianne.
00:33:35You were a horrible, bitter bitch in high school.
00:33:38And you're a horrible, bitter bitch now.
00:33:42Shit, Ava.
00:33:44You've got an attitude now.
00:33:46Bet you got that from your bestie, Chloe, eh?
00:33:48Hey, where is she anyway?
00:33:50Probably posting pictures of her Louis on Insta.
00:33:51She's so fake.
00:33:53I bet all those photos are staged.
00:33:55You know, you two are the perfect pair.
00:33:59Trash that grew up to be trash.
00:34:02Okay, look, Julianne.
00:34:04The only reason you're acting this way
00:34:06is because you missed us.
00:34:08Your life was so fucking boring
00:34:10you had to make it exciting by bullying us.
00:34:13I guess it's still boring.
00:34:15Did your husband leave you
00:34:17because you're such a fucking boring bitch?
00:34:19Long time no see, everyone.
00:34:27Who the hell are you?
00:34:29Chloe?
00:34:31Chloe?
00:34:33I brought gifts for everyone.
00:34:36I hope you like them.
00:34:41Is this a limited edition Hermes scarf?
00:34:45I can't believe it.
00:34:46I can't believe it.
00:34:48Chloe, what happened to you?
00:34:50You look beautiful.
00:34:51Stunning!
00:34:52And elegant.
00:34:53Wow.
00:34:55Tell us, what's going on?
00:34:57I just...
00:34:59got a new job.
00:35:01I love your Insta.
00:35:03Are you actually living in a mansion with maids?
00:35:09I have to ask.
00:35:11Are you with the billionaire?
00:35:14Well, I like to keep my private life private.
00:35:18He's actually a trillionaire.
00:35:21Oh my God!
00:35:23I always knew you'd amount to something special.
00:35:26Come with me.
00:35:28Where the hell are you taking me?
00:35:30What the hell are you doing?
00:35:32You're with a billionaire?
00:35:34A trillionaire, actually.
00:35:36And he's everything I deserve.
00:35:38Why did you lie to me?
00:35:40I didn't want you to feel bad
00:35:41because he's everything you ever wanted.
00:35:45You know I don't care about the money.
00:35:48I paid our entire rent for years.
00:35:50Wow, are you really asking me for money right now?
00:35:53Just give me a number, I'll pay whatever to get you to shut up.
00:35:55That's not what I'm saying.
00:35:57You're just jealous.
00:35:59Look, let's be realistic.
00:36:01We're different types of people.
00:36:03I'm rich, you're poor.
00:36:05You don't really have anything in common.
00:36:07So you're sleeping with some rich guy
00:36:09and suddenly I'm beneath you?
00:36:11You've always been beneath me.
00:36:15You know what?
00:36:17You're right.
00:36:19We're not the same kind of people.
00:36:22You're right.
00:36:24We're not the same kind of people.
00:36:36Oh fuck, this even smells cheap.
00:36:41What?
00:37:00What the hell are you doing here?
00:37:02Eddie, you're here.
00:37:05Chloe, I thought I made it clear
00:37:07you're not to enter my personal space.
00:37:09I'm sorry.
00:37:11I've been exhausted after job hunting all day
00:37:13and I didn't want to be alone in my big empty room.
00:37:16So I came in here to talk to you and apologize
00:37:18and I guess I fell asleep.
00:37:23I'm too tired to move.
00:37:25Will you carry me back please?
00:37:28A scent.
00:37:30He likes my scent, finally.
00:37:33It's getting late.
00:37:35I need to sleep.
00:37:38You don't really want to sleep, do you?
00:37:42Go back to your room.
00:37:46Wait.
00:37:53Were you wearing a pair of blue earrings that night?
00:37:56Blue earrings?
00:37:59I mean, I might have a pair,
00:38:01but with everything that's happened,
00:38:03the move and getting settled in,
00:38:05I'm not totally sure why you ask.
00:38:07You can go now.
00:38:09Emily, can I please escort Ms. Archer to her room?
00:38:14Chloe,
00:38:16you're a guest in this house.
00:38:18You have to stay out of my private quarters.
00:38:20Is that clear?
00:38:22Dammit, why did you get so weird over earrings?
00:38:38Ava, you scheming bitch.
00:38:40You left your earring for him to find.
00:38:42Do you think we're playing Cinderella?
00:38:44Well, it's midnight.
00:38:46Ball's over, bitch.
00:38:50We need to talk.
00:38:52Now.
00:38:55I may be poor,
00:38:57but I'm not a whore.
00:38:59I'm not a whore.
00:39:01I'm not a whore.
00:39:03I'm not a whore.
00:39:05I'm not a whore.
00:39:07But I still pay the rent.
00:39:09Hand over the key.
00:39:11I'm sorry.
00:39:13Look, we both said things that we didn't mean yesterday.
00:39:17I didn't tell you about my boyfriend
00:39:19because I didn't want you to worry.
00:39:21That's not all.
00:39:23Why else are you here?
00:39:25To apologize.
00:39:27Look, I brought a peace offering.
00:39:32I accept your apology,
00:39:34but you know I don't care about that stuff.
00:39:37I care about you.
00:39:39I'm a lot more stable now and I can cover the rent.
00:39:42What does our CEO have you doing
00:39:44that you're making so much money?
00:39:46What you working on?
00:39:48Just this presentation I've been working on
00:39:50for over a week.
00:39:52We have a super important meeting this afternoon
00:39:54with JPG's chairman.
00:39:56My boss asked me to handle it.
00:39:58Wow, sounds like you're his right hand,
00:40:00not just his secretary.
00:40:02I guess.
00:40:04It would be the dream job
00:40:05if Christine would stop picking on me.
00:40:07She keeps trying to get me fired.
00:40:09She is?
00:40:11I mean, that's terrible.
00:40:13Can she even do that?
00:40:25Not if Edmund has my back.
00:40:28You're calling him Edmund?
00:40:30Wow, you've really fallen for him, haven't you?
00:40:33I mean, royal title doesn't make him a good guy.
00:40:36Just be careful, Ava.
00:40:39He's just my boss.
00:40:41That's all.
00:40:43And besides, he has a girlfriend.
00:40:46Oh, I just got this new dress
00:40:48that would go perfectly with those blue earrings
00:40:50your mom got you for Christmas.
00:40:52Could I borrow them?
00:40:54You're living the high life now.
00:40:56Why do you want my earrings?
00:40:58And I only have one left, unfortunately.
00:41:00Oh, that's fine. That's the new trend.
00:41:04Okay.
00:41:06Be right back.
00:41:17Okay.
00:41:19Okay, please make sure to give it back to me.
00:41:21It means a lot.
00:41:23Yeah, of course.
00:41:25Well, I've got to go.
00:41:27You know what? You use that lift.
00:41:30I'll take this off your hands.
00:41:31It reminds me of you.
00:41:34Okay.
00:41:36Sure.
00:41:50Who the hell are you?
00:41:55Is this some sort of revenge thing for firing you?
00:41:58I'm calling security.
00:41:59No need.
00:42:01My boyfriend owns the place.
00:42:05Boyfriend?
00:42:07Yeah.
00:42:09I'm Edmund Sinclair's live-in girlfriend.
00:42:14You're delusional.
00:42:16I told you.
00:42:18I'm Edmund Sinclair's live-in girlfriend.
00:42:22Okay.
00:42:24So what brings you here, Miss Archer?
00:42:26Thought that would change the tenor of this conversation.
00:42:29I heard you want to get rid of Ava Grant.
00:42:32And I heard the two of you were best friends.
00:42:34Not anymore.
00:42:36She seduced Edmund last night in our living room.
00:42:39I knew there was something up with her.
00:42:41What can I do? Edmund will never let me fire her.
00:42:44Well, he can't protect her if she keeps messing up her job.
00:42:48I have a feeling that today's important meeting
00:42:52is going to be the last one.
00:42:54Today's important meeting
00:42:56may be a little more dramatic than expected.
00:43:01We'll now have Miss Grant present the strategy collaboration plan
00:43:05between Imhotel and JBG.
00:43:15What?
00:43:17No! It's gone!
00:43:19After today, no one will be able to stop me from becoming the Duchess.
00:43:24No!
00:43:35I'm sorry.
00:43:37The presentation I worked on is gone.
00:43:39What do you mean it's gone?
00:43:42I don't know. It's my fault.
00:43:45It's not your fault.
00:43:47It's our fault.
00:43:49We're allowing an entry-level employee
00:43:51to participate in our daily management.
00:43:54You've put our reputation in front of our valuable partner
00:43:57and you've probably cost us millions of dollars.
00:43:59I'm sorry, Ava, but you are fired.
00:44:02Christine, let her finish the presentation.
00:44:06Let her finish the presentation.
00:44:09Mr. Harrington, how can she even...
00:44:12It's a joke.
00:44:14I said let her finish the presentation.
00:44:17It's okay, kid. You've prepared.
00:44:20You can present without the files.
00:44:25What we have here is an opportunity
00:44:28for both of our companies to grow together.
00:44:31What the fuck? Why is Mr. Harrington on her side every time?
00:44:35And through the symbiotic relationship,
00:44:38we'll not only give our guests the best possible experience,
00:44:41but increase profit margins in ways we never possibly imagined.
00:44:49Well, Mr. Harrington, I hope that our proposal was helpful.
00:44:52Very impressive.
00:44:55I can go with it.
00:44:57But only with one condition.
00:45:01She handles all the details.
00:45:07Of course.
00:45:09From now on, Ava will be in charge of the entire collaboration project.
00:45:16Young lady, you have a bright future ahead of you.
00:45:19I really appreciate it, Mr. Harrington.
00:45:22Sir, I don't mean to speak out of turn,
00:45:25but I don't have much experience.
00:45:27Why do you want me to take this on?
00:45:29Because I see the potential in you.
00:45:32And you remind me of my daughter.
00:45:35Does she work at the company?
00:45:37No, I haven't seen her in years.
00:45:41I thought after my son's accident she would resurface.
00:45:45I've tried to find her, but...
00:45:46I think she stays away from me because she hates me.
00:45:52I doubt that.
00:45:54I think if you're meant to find each other, you will.
00:45:59I hope so.
00:46:02Would I be fortunate enough to invite you to dinner sometime, Miss Ava?
00:46:08Of course.
00:46:10It would be my honor.
00:46:17How could the fire be empty this morning?
00:46:20Hey, stop thinking about it.
00:46:22I'm taking you out to eat to celebrate the deal with Clifford.
00:46:25Pick anything you want.
00:46:28Anything?
00:46:30Of course.
00:46:32I'll drive, so you don't change your mind.
00:46:40How'd it go? Is she gone for good?
00:46:43No.
00:46:44She's actually become the project leader.
00:46:47And your boyfriend's taking her out to celebrate.
00:46:49What the hell?
00:46:51Just the two of them?
00:46:53Oh, I'm going to kill that bitch.
00:46:55Don't resort to murder just yet.
00:46:58I have another idea.
00:47:01Hey, we've arrived.
00:47:04You sure we're in the right place?
00:47:07I don't see many restaurants.
00:47:09This is my favorite restaurant.
00:47:13Oh.
00:47:16Sorry, I didn't realize you meant something so down to earth.
00:47:21Excuse me?
00:47:23These are the best tacos in L.A.
00:47:26You may have dined with royalty, but you've never had these.
00:47:29Every time something happy would happen, my mom would bring me here.
00:47:33No way.
00:47:35Is it your first time having a taco?
00:47:38I suppose today will be my first time.
00:47:41Well, then there's a first time for everything you embrace.
00:47:45Let's go.
00:47:49My lady.
00:47:54Oh, my God.
00:47:56Oh, my God.
00:47:58Oh, my God.
00:48:00Oh.
00:48:02Yes.
00:48:17I'll handle this.
00:48:19Okay.
00:48:21What would you like?
00:48:23Whatever you order.
00:48:25Good evening, madam.
00:48:26Four of your finest carnivorous tacos, please.
00:48:30Four combination tacos.
00:48:34Two fish tacos and two abaracoa tacos, please.
00:48:39How many people are you feeding?
00:48:41Just the two of us.
00:48:43Is that not enough food?
00:48:45Unless your girlfriend hasn't eaten in a week.
00:48:48I'm not his girlfriend.
00:48:51He's just my boss.
00:48:53Girl, what are you waiting for?
00:48:54Who cares if he's your boss?
00:48:56If I was your age, I'd snatch him.
00:49:01Where do I swipe this?
00:49:05Are you serious?
00:49:10Here you go.
00:49:12He's your boyfriend or boss or whatever.
00:49:15Prince of England?
00:49:18Kind of.
00:49:20Oh, then I definitely back him now.
00:49:23What are you laughing about?
00:49:25Nothing.
00:49:27Slightly embarrassing.
00:49:29I've never let a woman pay for my meal before.
00:49:32Here you go.
00:49:36Well, enjoy your first meal paid for by a woman.
00:49:46Oh, my.
00:49:48It appears I made a mess of myself.
00:49:51You know what to do.
00:50:01You're actually fun when you're out of the office.
00:50:04Well, now I know what you really think of me.
00:50:06I must say, this barbacoa does seem interesting.
00:50:10It's barbacoa, and you'll love it.
00:50:13Barbacoa?
00:50:21Can I ask why you're so determined to keep this hotel?
00:50:27Well, my dad let my mom design one of our hotels.
00:50:32This was the one.
00:50:34She poured all her love into it.
00:50:38It was the last and only hotel she ever designed before she passed.
00:50:44I used to ride around the lobby on the roller carts.
00:50:48I'm sorry.
00:50:51I know what it feels like to lose someone you love.
00:50:56My mom.
00:50:59She has late stage brain cancer.
00:51:02And she's barely awake now.
00:51:11Can I have a bite of that?
00:51:17No.
00:51:21It's mine!
00:51:44That's not right.
00:51:46Do you have a girlfriend?
00:51:48She's not my girlfriend.
00:51:51Then why does she live in your house?
00:51:54It's complicated.
00:52:00Have you changed up a few?
00:52:03How did you know?
00:52:05It was a gift from a friend.
00:52:07My mom always told me that I have the sense of smell of Wilbur.
00:52:11Wilbur?
00:52:13Our dog.
00:52:15Well, I'll take that as a compliment.
00:52:24Were you the woman that night?
00:52:27In the hotel room?
00:52:30I...
00:52:33No.
00:52:35No, I don't know what you mean.
00:52:38In the presidential suite?
00:52:42I leave work every day.
00:52:43I...
00:52:45I'm not going to be renting presidential suites.
00:52:52Well, I guess I was wrong then.
00:53:03This is the necklace I had custom made for Vic's twelfth birthday.
00:53:07How does Ava have it?
00:53:09Find out who she really is.
00:53:14You're back!
00:53:16Look, I made you shots.
00:53:18Try one, tell me what you like.
00:53:22What's that?
00:53:24Oh, the earring.
00:53:26I was so out of it when you asked me about it last night,
00:53:28I totally forgot what you were talking about.
00:53:30You remember it, don't you?
00:53:32I was wearing them the night we met.
00:53:34I lost the other one, but I figured it symbolized our meeting,
00:53:38so I thought I'd wear it anyway.
00:53:40You like?
00:53:41No, where was you?
00:53:43What do you mean?
00:53:46Nothing.
00:53:48Wait here.
00:53:50Now you have no reason to doubt me.
00:53:57You found it!
00:53:59Oh my gosh, this is like a real fairy tale.
00:54:01The prince putting his glass slipper on his true Cinderella.
00:54:04Can you put it on me?
00:54:06So they can be reunited like you and me.
00:54:12Chloe,
00:54:14I offered you a place to stay here temporarily.
00:54:17You've been here a month.
00:54:19I think you should move out.
00:54:21What's wrong?
00:54:23Why are you being so cold?
00:54:25I lost my job because of you.
00:54:27I offered to give you a new one.
00:54:29I'd like you to leave first thing tomorrow morning.
00:54:32You want me and the baby out?
00:54:34Fine, we'll leave tomorrow.
00:54:36Wait a minute.
00:54:38What do you mean baby?
00:54:39What do you mean baby?
00:54:43I'm pregnant.
00:54:45What?
00:54:50Miss Chloe, you're absolutely fine.
00:54:53Just take some rest.
00:54:55I'll be fine once I have an ultrasound
00:54:57and a positive pregnancy test.
00:55:01I'll see to it the test results are sent to you.
00:55:05How is this possible?
00:55:08We were together once.
00:55:10I didn't want to tell you
00:55:12because I didn't want you to freak out.
00:55:14I'm fully prepared to take care of this baby on my own.
00:55:17If you still want to sleep, we'll leave tomorrow.
00:55:19No, no.
00:55:21It's okay.
00:55:23Just stay here comfortably.
00:55:25I'll have the staff look after you.
00:55:27What I really want is for you to take care of me.
00:55:31I want to see you.
00:55:32I want you to take care of me.
00:55:34I want it to be like...
00:55:36I need time.
00:55:39For God's sake.
00:55:41What the hell does it take?
00:55:45Okay, what was so urgent
00:55:47that I needed to get here right away?
00:55:49Alfred Harrington from JPG
00:55:51has invited Ava to a private dinner
00:55:54at his house tonight.
00:55:57What? Why?
00:55:59Exactly. Why would a stubborn asshole
00:56:00who's been hell-bent on acquiring Ann Motel
00:56:03suddenly change his attitude
00:56:05over that bitch?
00:56:08Because what's between her legs, that's why.
00:56:13I can't believe she'd be that low.
00:56:16Clinging onto Edmund and now seducing Clifford.
00:56:19He's old enough to be her grandfather.
00:56:21Well, soon the whole world will know she's a whore.
00:56:24Kate's already following.
00:56:31Mom, I...
00:56:33I think I've fallen for someone I shouldn't.
00:56:37When I was young,
00:56:39I fell in love with a man
00:56:41no one wanted me to be with.
00:56:44Dad?
00:56:46But he was the perfect guy.
00:56:48He was.
00:56:50And he was our family's driver.
00:56:53Wait.
00:56:55Why did you have a driver?
00:56:57I never told you this.
00:56:58I was born into a wealthy family.
00:57:01When I ran away with your father,
00:57:04I gave up everything.
00:57:07But I never regretted it for a second.
00:57:11So, Ava,
00:57:13if you love someone,
00:57:15be brave.
00:57:17And if you need help being brave,
00:57:20just look at that lock.
00:57:23I'll always be with you.
00:57:25I'll always be with you.
00:57:28Don't say that.
00:57:30You're with me now.
00:57:34Mr. Harrington?
00:57:36What are you doing here?
00:57:44Mr. Harrington?
00:57:46What are you doing here?
00:57:50Victoria.
00:57:52Dad?
00:57:56I'm so sorry.
00:57:58I shouldn't have kicked you off like that.
00:58:02I'm sorry we lost so much time.
00:58:05Mom, what's going on?
00:58:10He's your grandpa, Ava.
00:58:14This is for the best.
00:58:16When I'm gone,
00:58:18you'll have each other to rely on.
00:58:20You'll have each other to rely on.
00:58:26You're gonna be okay.
00:58:28I've arranged for the best cancer treatment team in the country.
00:58:35Thank you, Mr. Harrington.
00:58:38No more Mr. Harrington.
00:58:42Grandpa.
00:58:47Oh, my God.
00:58:48It's actually true.
00:58:50He's meeting her mother?
00:58:55I've been here for a while.
00:58:57It's really comfortable.
00:58:59That house up there is beautiful.
00:59:01The fountain over here.
00:59:07It's still surreal how I found you two.
00:59:12You know, Ava,
00:59:15I'd like you to inherit JPG.
00:59:19And we should make our relationship public.
00:59:24I appreciate it.
00:59:26But I'm not ready for everyone to know.
00:59:29And besides, I'm not ready to leave M Hotel just yet.
00:59:33You mean you're not ready to leave Edmond.
00:59:38I understand.
00:59:40Just let me know when you're ready.
00:59:42Okay.
00:59:48Book two flights to Seattle.
00:59:50We have a visit with a partnering hotel.
00:59:52We?
00:59:54You're going with me.
00:59:56You're going with me.
00:59:58Gotcha.
01:00:13Okay.
01:00:25Wait.
01:00:27What happened?
01:00:38Don't tell me we...
01:00:40We what?
01:00:42Your boss twice in a month?
01:00:44What is wrong with you?
01:00:47Whatever happened last night?
01:00:49Just forget about it.
01:00:51You don't remember what happened last night?
01:00:58Watch your step.
01:01:00Do you have your key?
01:01:03Alright, off we go.
01:01:05Up!
01:01:09Oh no.
01:01:12Oh no.
01:01:18Ava, what are you doing?
01:01:20Just getting comfortable.
01:01:26Ava, we really shouldn't...
01:01:28Shh.
01:01:34Looks like my night just got better.
01:01:37Ava, what are you saying?
01:01:39Come on, Eddie.
01:01:43Do you like to kill?
01:01:53Ava?
01:01:57Ava.
01:02:02No, no, no.
01:02:05No, no, no.
01:02:09I'm really sorry.
01:02:10I'm sorry.
01:02:12Okay, but so we didn't...
01:02:14We didn't.
01:02:16We did the other time.
01:02:18What?
01:02:22I'm not sure what you're talking about.
01:02:29Looks like my night just got better.
01:02:31Looks like my night just got better.
01:02:34Do you like tequila?
01:02:36Do you like tequila?
01:02:40You were the mysterious woman that night.
01:02:43That Mr. Sinclair?
01:02:46I think you're having me confused with someone else.
01:02:49I think I'd remember if we...
01:02:51You know.
01:02:55Honestly, I'm a bit disappointed.
01:02:58I've been trying to ignore my feelings, but...
01:03:02I can't.
01:03:04I care about you, Ava.
01:03:07More than I should.
01:03:10We shouldn't.
01:03:11Why shouldn't we?
01:03:12You know why.
01:03:14I just want to be with you.
01:03:16To talk to you.
01:03:18To dream beside you.
01:03:20To explore your life.
01:03:24Above all, to shield you from the sorrows of this world.
01:03:30You're not single, Edmund.
01:03:33What am I supposed to do?
01:03:35Be your mistress?
01:03:37What about your girlfriend?
01:03:39What about your girlfriend?
01:03:42She's...
01:03:43I'm pregnant.
01:03:47It's complicated.
01:03:51So then this isn't happening.
01:03:54And the only relationship between us is a professional one.
01:03:58No.
01:03:59Excuse me, Edmund.
01:04:00Excuse me, Edmund.
01:04:07I'll have your shirt dry cleaned, sir.
01:04:14Edmund hasn't been in the house for two days.
01:04:15Do you know where he is?
01:04:17You should probably ask your best friend.
01:04:19She's traveling with him.
01:04:21What the hell?
01:04:22They're together all the time now.
01:04:24Probably sharing a hotel room this very moment.
01:04:26Ugh, you horny slut.
01:04:27It's not like you're screwing Clifford.
01:04:29Now you have to have Edmund, too.
01:04:32Um, ma'am.
01:04:33That vase was acquired by Mr. Sinclair at an auction.
01:04:36For two million dollars.
01:04:39I don't give a shit.
01:04:52Ow!
01:04:53What are you doing?
01:04:54Ow!
01:04:56Why'd you make it so hot?
01:04:58Stupid me.
01:05:01What have you done?
01:05:04What have you done?
01:05:05Have you lost your mind?
01:05:06Oh my god, Edmund.
01:05:07I'm so sorry.
01:05:08Are you okay?
01:05:10Pregnancy hormones, you know?
01:05:12I just get so sad when you're not home.
01:05:15Where have you been?
01:05:17On a business trip.
01:05:18With that little bitch.
01:05:20You know, I think it's time that we talk about our future.
01:05:23I think we should get married as soon as possible.
01:05:25For the baby.
01:05:26I've had a long day of traveling.
01:05:28I need some rest.
01:05:32Emily, where...
01:05:33Where's my vase?
01:05:35I'm afraid...
01:05:38I'm afraid Madam knocked it over.
01:05:42It wasn't intentional.
01:05:43I was just holding it in my face.
01:05:47Ridiculous.
01:05:48Ridiculous.
01:05:53Smirk all you want, dumbass maid.
01:05:56I'll fire you when I'm the Duchess.
01:06:04I heard the only reason she became host of her annual press conference
01:06:08is because she went on a business trip with the CEO.
01:06:12The bitch was definitely in her business.
01:06:16She's ruthless.
01:06:18Does she care that he has a girlfriend?
01:06:20No.
01:06:21Did she even seduce him right in front of her?
01:06:24And there's something else about her.
01:06:27Tell me.
01:06:29She hooked up JPG's chairman.
01:06:34No fucking way.
01:06:38That's gross.
01:06:40And these cigarettes are hot.
01:06:41What?
01:06:46Mr. Sinclair, you wanted to see me?
01:06:48Ah, yes.
01:06:49It's for you.
01:06:51What's this for?
01:06:53Today's a big day.
01:06:54You're leading the press conference.
01:06:56So you should look the part.
01:07:01Wow.
01:07:03This is gorgeous.
01:07:05I've never worn anything this beautiful.
01:07:07Good.
01:07:08Wear it and nail the press conference.
01:07:10I will, sir.
01:07:12This just came from Mr. Harrington.
01:07:15Poor Eva.
01:07:21Apparently, Mr. Harrington also thinks I dress too plainly.
01:07:26Go get ready.
01:07:27We sign in an hour.
01:07:33Sir, why is Harrington sending your secretary gifts?
01:07:36It's a little strange.
01:07:39I don't pay you to gossip, James.
01:07:45Photographic evidence is much more impactful.
01:07:53All of the shareholders will be at the press conference this afternoon.
01:07:58We will make sure Eva is destroyed.
01:08:02Once this gets out, Clifford Harrington will have no choice but to distance himself from Eva to protect his reputation.
01:08:08And Edmund will be done with her.
01:08:11Well, in that case, there is no need for the disguise, Duchess.
01:08:16Your competition is about to lose.
01:08:19And your position is secure.
01:08:24Chloe!
01:08:26What are you doing here?
01:08:27Oh, um...
01:08:29I was just here for lunch.
01:08:32At our office building?
01:08:34Why didn't you tell me? We could catch up.
01:08:38Wait.
01:08:39How do you have both of my earrings?
01:08:41I only lent you one.
01:08:43I lost the other one that night at the hotel with Edmund.
01:08:53I'll take this off your hands.
01:08:55It reminds me of you.
01:08:56I paid for your little hotel room and cleaned up your mess with your special guest.
01:09:02There was a millionaire?
01:09:03A trillionaire, actually.
01:09:05I didn't want you to feel bad because he's everything you ever wanted.
01:09:10It was you.
01:09:13You're the girl who moved in with Edmund.
01:09:15That's what Edmund said.
01:09:17That he mistook someone else for me.
01:09:19You've been pretending to be me since that night.
01:09:22I have to tell him.
01:09:23No, Eva, Eva, listen to me.
01:09:25It was an accident.
01:09:27I...
01:09:28I was trying to help you.
01:09:30And we fell for each other.
01:09:32I wish I could give you everything back, but it's complicated now.
01:09:37It's not just about you.
01:09:39I'm done taking care of you.
01:09:42I'm having his baby.
01:09:45You're pregnant?
01:09:46Please, please don't tell him the truth.
01:09:49If you do, he's gonna leave me and the baby and I can't be a single mom.
01:09:53I don't know how to do that.
01:09:55Chloe, you're such a fool.
01:09:58This is the only thing I've ever wanted.
01:10:01Please, please take care of me like you always do.
01:10:06Please let me have him.
01:10:10I promise I won't tell him.
01:10:13I'll quit after the press conference and I'll never see him again.
01:10:17You can have him.
01:10:22I'm so, so sorry about everything that I've done to you.
01:10:27You'll always be my best friend.
01:10:51Is that the same secretary?
01:10:54Miss Grant looks absolutely incredible today.
01:10:58Hey, she's wearing the dress sent by Mr. Harrington.
01:11:04First off, I want to thank you all for attending our press conference.
01:11:09I am thrilled to announce the strategy collaboration between M Hotel and JPG.
01:11:15As you all know, this has been a huge undertaking.
01:11:19I didn't know that cow could clean up that well.
01:11:22And we are glad to have finally reached an agreement with JPG
01:11:25and welcome Mr. Harrington and his company into our family.
01:11:42What's happening?
01:11:48What's happening?
01:11:49What's happening is you're Clifford Harrington's mistress
01:11:53and you've been spying on M Hotels.
01:11:58What?
01:12:00How much did Clifford pay you to make this deal?
01:12:02Nothing.
01:12:03Are you crazy?
01:12:04This woman is trying to set me up. She's a liar.
01:12:07I'm a liar?
01:12:09Why would the chairman of JPG go to such great lengths for a mere secretary unless he was screwing her?
01:12:17Is this true?
01:12:19M Hotel could not allow behavior like this.
01:12:22These photos don't prove anything.
01:12:28Ms. Grant and Mr. Harrington's friendship has absolutely nothing to do with our meeting today.
01:12:33Friendship?
01:12:34Clifford has been paying for all of her mother's medical bills.
01:12:37That's more than a friend, don't you think?
01:12:40Mr. Harrington and I's relationship is an unusual one.
01:12:44So you finally admit it.
01:12:45Ms. Grant, you are fired.
01:12:49We will investigate the corporate espionage and our lawyers will be in touch.
01:12:55We will do no such thing.
01:13:07It's true.
01:13:08She is doing it on a date.
01:13:12See? Look at them. I wasn't lying.
01:13:14She's a whore.
01:13:19How dare you talk about my granddaughter like that?
01:13:22Granddaughter?
01:13:25What the fuck? This shit just got freaky.
01:13:28I wanted to respect Ava's wishes and keep her true identity private.
01:13:33But I couldn't let her reputation get ruined like this.
01:13:38May I introduce Ava Harrington.
01:13:42My granddaughter and heiress and future president of JPG Hotel Group.
01:13:59She's your granddaughter?
01:14:01Oh my god, that's why you gave all that money to your mom.
01:14:05I was getting the wrong information.
01:14:09How dare you frame Mrs. Grant?
01:14:14You wicked bitch.
01:14:16You blamed her for stealing a job that you wanted.
01:14:19And then you set her up and you used me in the process.
01:14:23I never should have listened to you.
01:14:25Get out. I never want to see your disgusting face again.
01:14:29But boss, I did exactly as you told me to. Don't fire me.
01:14:32Ava, I have always admired your talent.
01:14:38This whole situation is just a big misunderstanding.
01:14:41Let's put it behind us.
01:14:43I think we should. And you should leave.
01:14:46Don't we need to finish the meeting?
01:14:49Yes, we'll continue. But without you present.
01:14:53You're no longer the GM of the hotels.
01:14:56You're fired. You're fired.
01:15:00Mr. Sinclair, everything I've done has been in the best interest of this company.
01:15:05You can't just kick me out of here.
01:15:08Security.
01:15:12Gross. Stop.
01:15:21There's one more.
01:15:23Her, in the back.
01:15:26I started investigating the moment I heard these outrageous rumors.
01:15:31This morning, I learned that this woman and Christine
01:15:36had been working together to destroy my granddaughter.
01:15:45After everything I gave up for you, you do this to me?
01:15:49You know me and you lie to me like this?
01:15:53You're my best friend and I don't even recognize you anymore.
01:15:57Best friend?
01:15:59I was manipulated by Christine. I really thought you and Clifford were involved.
01:16:04The first time my presentation got deleted, it was you, wasn't it?
01:16:08You had Edmund, but that wasn't enough. You had to ruin my career too.
01:16:12You were the only one with access to my computer before the meeting.
01:16:15Ava, I would never do anything to hurt you. You have to believe me.
01:16:19No, I don't. You lie again and again.
01:16:23I don't know who you are anymore.
01:16:25I don't understand. You two know each other.
01:16:28She's my roommate.
01:16:30You told me you lived alone.
01:16:34Edmund, I didn't say anything because I didn't want to make things weird.
01:16:37I didn't think you'd like me being your secretary's best friend.
01:16:41Besides, we were close, but we rarely know each other now.
01:16:45This woman knows nothing about me.
01:16:47Nothing?
01:16:51Chloe, I'm done being manipulated by you.
01:16:54I don't care that you have a baby.
01:16:56Edmund, it was me that night.
01:16:58Not her.
01:17:00It was you the whole time.
01:17:05Okay, maybe it was her the first night, but it's been me ever since.
01:17:09We have a connection.
01:17:10Silence!
01:17:12Chloe, I want you to leave.
01:17:16I don't want to see you ever again.
01:17:19I'm not her child.
01:17:21There is no child.
01:17:24We never slept together.
01:17:26Now.
01:17:32Wait.
01:17:34There's something I need back.
01:17:39I don't want you having any part of me.
01:17:45You win.
01:17:48I'm going to announce my retirement
01:17:52so that I can spend more time with your mom, Ava.
01:17:57Will you take over JPG?
01:18:00What do you say?
01:18:04If you ever mistreat my granddaughter again,
01:18:08I'll ruin you.
01:18:10You have my word.
01:18:12I won't let her down ever again.
01:18:15Part of me knew it was you.
01:18:18Really?
01:18:20How?
01:18:22Just a feeling.
01:18:24What are you feeling right now?
01:18:28I'm feeling like we're in the middle of a meeting and everyone's watching.
01:18:35Let them.
01:18:37It's all I care about.
01:18:40Let them.
01:18:42It's all I care about.
01:18:44It's you.
01:19:05Excuse me, sir. Madam.
01:19:08A special delivery.
01:19:11Distract.
01:19:21Oh my God!
01:19:23It's a handwritten letter from the King of England.
01:19:26He's attending our wedding?
01:19:28Sorry, I didn't say anything.
01:19:30I sent him an invitation.
01:19:32Technically, he is family.
01:19:34This is incredible!
01:19:36I mean, I didn't even need to do anything for this.
01:19:41I know I'm a Duke, but first and foremost,
01:19:44I'm your Edmund.
01:20:02So, of all the hotels, this is the high mode suite you pick.
01:20:06Exactly.
01:20:08I like it.
