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