They Called Me a Gold Digger but I Chose to Be a Single Mom Instead!
Transcript
00:00Mia got out of Mr. James' car this morning.
00:04Really?
00:05He takes her to all sorts of events.
00:08He must really like her.
00:10That's too bad for Scarlet.
00:13What are you talking about?
00:15Hi, Scarlet.
00:17It's nothing.
00:18You're the most trusted person around here.
00:21Mia's nothing.
00:23And you're the host for the opening ceremony of the Charity Art Exhibition.
00:26That's all that matters.
00:28How is the preparation going?
00:31We're on it.
00:32We're on it.
00:45Ms. Jones, I know how to handle Mia.
00:54Scarlet, here's the omelette latte you asked for.
01:03Mr. James, everything has been arranged.
01:05We're just waiting for Scarlet to give the opening speech.
01:08There's important business partners and heavyweight media players.
01:11We cannot afford to make any mistakes.
01:13Oh, please don't worry.
01:14I reviewed over everything.
01:15There shouldn't be any problems.
01:20Mr. James!
01:21Scarlet had an allergic reaction to something.
01:24Hurry.
01:25We have to help her.
01:33Looks like the show's about to begin.
01:39Mia, I told you I have a gluten allergy.
01:41You put oat milk in her coffee?
01:44It was a mistake.
01:45Scarlet wanted oat milk in her coffee.
01:47Doesn't matter now.
01:48Scarlet can't host the event.
01:50All this hard work was for nothing.
01:52Yeah, Mia.
01:53You're in trouble now.
01:54I'm so sorry.
01:55It's all my fault.
01:56Get Scarlet to the hospital and find someone to host the show.
01:59Mr. James?
02:00Mia can host the show.
02:01I...
02:02There's no way!
02:03She's only been with the company for a few months.
02:06I'm...
02:07She made the proposal.
02:09I'm sure she can do it.
02:12Will you?
02:16I believe in you.
02:18Then I'll try.
02:20It's her.
02:21You don't have a dressing room.
02:23I'll take care.
02:25Mia, here's the nose for the second.
02:29Erin.
02:30Why isn't the event started yet?
02:31The need is already done.
02:32No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
02:34Oh, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
02:56Erin?
02:57Why isn't the event started yet?
02:58The leader is already here.
03:02Sir, it's past the start time and Miss Nolan's not here.
03:05Is it possible she's not coming?
03:08Sorry I'm late.
03:13I hear there's a girl at the manor.
03:16So you're finally doing it.
03:18Is she...
03:25Are you being blackmailed?
03:27This is my secretary.
03:30Oh...
03:34I see.
03:37Well, it's my birthday and the night's not over until we are all drunk.
03:43Oh, I don't think I should. Bad things happen when I drink too much.
03:47Let's see it.
03:48If you can get me drunk, your company can have the next 50 million dollars in projects.
03:5550 million dollars?
03:57Don't believe a word that he says.
03:59Mr. James.
04:01If we land this, it'll make up for the 50 million lost in my honor.
04:05I have to try.
04:15Cheers.
04:16Snake Eyes.
04:17You lose.
04:18Oh.
04:19Oh.
04:20I lose.
04:21Bottoms up.
04:22Oh.
04:23Oh.
04:24Oh.
04:25Oh.
04:26Oh.
04:27Oh.
04:28Oh.
04:29Oh.

04:32Oh.
04:33Oh.
04:34Oh.

04:48Oh.
04:49Oh.
04:50Come on.
05:13Oh, you're so handsome.
05:15I need it again.
05:20Oh, you're so handsome.
05:27I need it again.
05:29Oh, you're so handsome.
05:36Oh.
05:48Ugh.
05:53Mr. James!
05:54Uh, I love too much to drink tonight.
05:57If I did anything to offend you, I'm truly sorry.
06:00Do you remember anything?
06:02What happened?
06:06Oh, God.
06:11I'm so sorry about your suit.
06:13I'll pay for another one.
06:15Not a chance.
06:16At least let me get it to the cleaners.
06:19That won't be necessary.
06:22You've already closed a five million dollar contract for me.
06:25I did?
06:26Get yourself cleaned up.
06:27I'll pay for another one.
06:28Not a chance.
06:29At least let me get it to the cleaners.
06:30That won't be necessary.
06:31You've already closed a five million dollar contract for me.
06:33I did?
06:34Get yourself cleaned up.
06:35Sir, it's past the start time and Miss Nolan's not here.
06:38Is it possible she's not coming?
06:39Sorry I'm late.
06:40Whoa!
06:41Whoa!
06:42Whoa!
06:43Is that dress from the James family collection?
06:45No.
06:46No.
06:47No.
06:48No.
06:49No.
06:50No.
06:51No.

07:10No.
07:11No.
07:15No.
07:16No.
07:17You'll wear this dress later.
07:18It's from your family's collection.
07:19I think it's too much for me.
07:20This is my lawyer.
07:22She's beautiful and familiar.
07:28I feel the same way.
07:31Distinguished guests we'd like to extend our warmest welcome to all of you and begin the
07:35commencement of this charitable art exhibition.
07:38Is this the big show you were talking about?
07:40The real fun is about to begin.
07:43It is my distinguished honor to guide you through these showcased masterpieces.
07:52Where did the notes go?
08:10Modern art, with its unique perspective, profound connotation, and endless creativity,
08:26it challenges the perspective and definition of beauty.
08:30She's your secretary, Mia Nolan.
08:32Yes, she is.
08:34That was the introduction for today's showcase.
08:37And the James family is devoted to helping avant-garde artists find their artistic perspective,
08:42while also continuing to further global causes.
08:45Thank you all for coming.
09:03May I take a photo for you?
09:07Everyone, please follow me to enjoy the exhibit.
09:19Mia.
09:20Mr. Flark.
09:22Let's have a drink later, and maybe I can have your number?
09:25Mia, what are you doing?
09:27Trying to steal your secretary of it, looking for a good one.
09:31Mia, I'll double your salad.
09:33I-I...
09:38She makes how much?
09:40Still honor?
09:50I'm tripling your salad.
09:51One more year and I can buy a house and finally live the life that I want!
09:55One more day!
10:00What was that?
10:01I told you to ditch her, not put on a damn show.
10:04She was lucky this time.
10:05Next time she won't be.
10:06You can kiss your job goodbye if you screw up with this again.
10:09I know.
10:10I know.
10:25Mr. James?
10:26Is everything okay?
10:27Mia, are you feeling sick?
10:28I don't know.
10:29Recently I've been feeling nauseous.
10:30Are you pregnant?
10:31Can't be.
10:32I'm just feeling sick.
10:33It'll go away.
10:35It could be.
10:36It is.
10:37What?
10:38What?
10:40Have you been to Flankaster Hotel in Las Vegas?
10:42Is everything okay?
10:45I mean, are you feeling sick?
10:46Are you feeling sick?
10:47I don't know.
10:48Recently I've been feeling nauseous.
10:50Are you pregnant??
10:53Can't be.
10:55I'm just feeling sick.
10:56It'll go away.
10:59It'll go away.
11:01Give me your what?
11:07I was late this month.
11:09Am I pregnant?
11:18Me, Nolan?
11:20Your results are in.
11:25Congratulations!
11:27You're 42 days pregnant.
11:32Oh my God!
11:33Remember, lots of rest and stay hydrated.
11:39Do you want this?
11:41Yes. Take it from God.
11:53Where's Mia?
11:54She went to the hospital.
11:57Which one?
12:07Mr. James, what are you doing here?
12:09Oh, I just, uh, happen to be passing by.
12:13Come on, I'll take you home.
12:15Come on, I'll take you home.
12:25Ugh.
12:26Not feeling well?
12:27My stomach.
12:28You should take a couple days to rest.
12:31Does he realize it's his?
12:33Would he be happy?
12:35No.
12:36He's engaged.
12:37We had a one-night stand.
12:39Uh, 15 Derrick Street, just up ahead.
12:41You also live at 15 Derrick Street?
12:43Who else lives here?
12:45A friend.
12:47You also live at 15 Derrick Street?
12:49Who else lives here?
12:51A friend.
12:52Thank you for the ride.
12:54Thank you for the ride.
13:06Laura Jones, I'm at 15 Derrick Street, hurry!
13:18Get CCTV footage from the Lancaster Hotel.
13:32What are you wearing?
13:34Mia gave it to me.
13:36Huh.
13:37Well, Mia got me this shirt after we shared a motel room together, so I'd say she likes me a little bit more.
13:48You saw Mia and Clark together?
13:52They looked very comfortable together.
13:55Mia Clark has a nice ring to it.
14:03Mr. James!
14:05Is there something you two should be doing?
14:09I'm not paying you to gossip.
14:11I'm sorry, sorry.
14:13Sorry, Mr. James.
14:18Oh, I'm sorry.
14:20No, no, no.
14:21I can do it myself, Mr. James.
14:25You're pregnant?
14:30That's private, Mr. James.
14:32Who's the father?
14:33Is it Luke?
14:34No, Luke is like my brother.
14:36Who is he?
14:38It's Leah.
14:39When we're together.
14:41No one of you got a close.
14:43What are you talking about?
14:45There's nothing else, Mr. James.
14:47Who knew that Mia Nolan was so cocky?
14:52How dare you?
14:54I'm not the one who stepped down on my fiance.
14:57What are you talking about?
14:59You know what?
15:00Forget it.
15:01I quit.
15:17Good news, Ms. Jones.
15:19Mia is no longer with the James group.
15:20What happened?
15:21She tried to seduce Mr. James and Mr. Leo.
15:23And she's pregnant now.
15:24Mr. James is very upset.
15:25Erin knows she's pregnant?
15:26Yes.
15:27Erin can't find out that he's the father.
15:28I have to get rid of this kid.
15:30I don't know.
15:31I don't know if she's pregnant.
15:32What happened?
15:33She tried to seduce Mr. James and Mr. Leo.
15:35And she's pregnant now.
15:36Mr. James is very upset.
15:37Erin knows she's pregnant?
15:38Yes.
15:40Erin can't find out that he's the father.
15:43I have to get rid of this kid.
15:45Erin can't find out that he's the father.
15:48I have to get rid of this kid.
15:50rid of this kid. Hi, baby. Don't worry. We'll figure this out. A new job, a new life. Oh,
16:11Laura, what are you doing here? I felt bad after our argument the other day. I know you
16:16were just trying to help. I'd like to make it up to you. I'm sorry. Mia, on our family,
16:25forgive me, please. Please. By the way, is the little one okay? You know. Luke has such
16:40a big mouth. I brought you some stuff for the pregnancy. You seem unhappy. Thank you,
16:47Laura. I'm unemployed. What happened? I quit my job, and now I have to figure something
16:56out for me and the baby. Everything will be okay. Now, let's have some ice cream like we
17:04used to when we were little and something was bothering us. I'll be right back.
17:34Vanilla, your favorite. I'm sorry, Mia. This child will ruin everything for me. I have
17:50to do this.
18:04What's going on with you? Tell me the truth. Mia's baby. It's yours. Mia's pregnant? So not
18:24yours. Not this one, but maybe the next. Her past doesn't bother you? Not at all. I
18:34like her. All of her. Don't you?
18:58Miss Nolan, Mr. James is in the study. Just a moment. I'll get it.
19:04Laura? What are you doing here? Ma'am, here's some hot milk. Ma'am? Laura, are you his fiancee?
19:17Mia, I can explain. What is there to say? Just go home, okay? We'll talk later. I need
19:22to speak to Mr. James. Mia! I wanted to tell you, okay? He found me, and he asked me to
19:30marry him. Mia, you and me, we're family. I have your blessing to marry Aaron, right?
19:36Family doesn't lie. You should have told me.
19:41For as long as I could remember, you've always had everyone wrapped around your finger.
19:46Mia, Mia, Mia, always in the spotlight. And you know, really, I can accept that. But with
19:50Aaron, I'm crazy about him. And I know you have feelings for him too, but we're engaged.
19:55He's mine now. And after I saved you from that tumble down the stairs, you're seriously
20:01trying to steal the love of my life.
20:08What's wrong?
20:13Mia?
20:16Mia!
20:21Mia.
20:21Oh my God.
20:24Call the doctor!
20:35Thank God, you're finally awake.
20:42Baby.
20:44My baby.
20:45The baby's fine.
20:46Everything is going to be okay.
20:47Miss Fallen, did you eat anything unusual yesterday? It seems there was an abortifacient drug in
20:54your system. Luckily, we were able to save the baby.
21:03Look, Laura gave me some ice cream before I...
21:08Laura... Laura Jones!
21:10Yeah. We grew up together.
21:14Luke's family adopted us from your kids.
21:16Laura's your fiancee and you're seeing Mia?
21:25Asshole!
21:28Two months ago, you got Mia pregnant in Las Vegas and you don't even want the baby?
21:33What is he talking about?
21:34You're going to be a single mom?
21:37Does the father know?
21:39It was a one-night stand.
21:41You know I lose control when I'm drunk.
21:42It was a mistake, but I'm going to move forward.
21:48I want this child.
21:50Are you sure?
21:51You know I love kids.
21:53And now that I have this chance, I...
21:55I want to give it a good home.
22:00Doesn't that sound nice?
22:01Okay.
22:06Well, you know I got your back no matter what.
22:09And just so you know, I'm also totally cool raising this baby with you.
22:21I'm sorry, Luke.
22:23I just don't think of you like that.
22:27You'll always be my family.
22:32You gonna tell Laura?
22:34I will.
22:35The time's right.
22:38I'm not mad anymore.
22:40I'll always remember that time she saved my life.
22:42What's going on?
22:59We need to go to the hospital.
23:05Help us.
23:12Mia, you're awake.
23:15I'm so sorry.
23:16I shouldn't have.
23:17Laura, what happened?
23:19How?
23:20Wait, you don't remember?
23:22All I remember is falling down the stairs and then you saved me.
23:25Thank you, Laura.
23:27Of course.
23:28We're family.
23:29Me is awake.
23:41Thank God Mia doesn't remember what happened.
23:43She thinks I'm the one who saved her.
23:46Luke, please don't tell her what I did.
23:48She won't understand.
23:50I promise I won't do it again.
23:57Luke, are you right?
23:59Nothing.
24:02You know, I'm sure you and Laura will figure it out.
24:05I hope so.
24:08Thanks, Luke.
24:25What?
24:27Mia's pregnant.
24:27From a one-night stand.
24:30Why are you so surprised?
24:32I'm just excited for her.
24:35She wants to be a single mom?
24:37You know Mia.
24:38When she makes up her mind, there's no changing it.
24:40Be happy for her and go see her sometime.
24:43Yeah.
24:45Guess I will.
24:46A one-night stand.
24:53A one-night stand.
24:55Was it Aaron's?
24:57Would you tell him?
25:05Scarlett!
25:05I need you to plan a little business trip for Miss Nolan.
25:10Right away.
25:11I'll send her to San Francisco with an awful car and terrible lodging.
25:15Excellent.
25:15I'll send her to San Francisco with an awful car and terrible lodging.
25:16Excellent.
25:35I'll send her to San Francisco with an awful lot of people.
25:45I'll send her to San Francisco.
25:46I'll send her to San Francisco.
25:47Mia, it's ten o'clock.
25:49Why aren't you here yet?
25:50Mr. James, I'm at Scarlett's picking up a car for the meeting in San Francisco.
25:54You're driving yourself to San Francisco?
25:56Uh, yes.
25:58Unless you need...
26:01Hello?
26:09Yeah, hello?
26:15What's that smell?
26:17You sure Scarlett can make it to San Francisco?
26:19Scarlett seemed to think so.
26:26You know what?
26:27Forget about this car.
26:29You ride with me.
26:30You're going to San Francisco too?
26:32Turns out I have some business to attend to.
26:39Whatever.
26:56This is the rule of Scarlett put you in.
27:09I think it's great.
27:12I feel right at home.
27:14And thanks for the ride.
27:17Now let me get you a burger.
27:19Come on.
27:20Come on.
27:26Let me get you a burger.
27:56James.
27:58Do you like kids?
28:02Children are the lowest return investment in the world.
28:06You work hard for decades, but nothing will return.
28:10A parent shouldn't treat their child like an investment.
28:13How can you invest and expect nothing will return?
28:15I mean, what if your child becomes a criminal or degenerate?
28:21You don't want children?
28:23No.
28:25What if someone shows up at your door one day with a child?
28:27Impossible.
28:29I'm getting married.
28:30In the interest of my family.
28:32As far as it goes.
28:34No child for me.
28:35Mr. James, don't you want to stay in your fancy hotel room tonight?
28:58The security here is basically non-existent.
29:02So as your boss, it's my duty to secure safety as one of my employees.
29:06Get out.
29:35Aaron, Aaron, Aaron, Aaron, Aaron, Aaron, Aaron, Aaron, Aaron, the baby is yours.
29:53You're the father.
29:53Please don't leave us.
29:57Aaron, please, please, Aaron.
30:02Aaron.
30:02Aaron.
30:05I am.
30:11How is he doing?
30:12I'm so very sorry for your loss.
30:14Aaron.
30:25Mira.
30:27Oh.
30:29Unfortunately, we could not locate the footage from that night.
30:32I'm so very sorry for your loss.
30:44What?
30:51Oh, she lucked out with that baby.
30:57Madam.
31:01Mira.
31:01I will destroy you.
31:04It's the best apple pie in San Francisco.
31:11It's the best apple pie in San Francisco.
31:21It's delicious.
31:22Luke got it for me once, and I couldn't resist.
31:27Luke.
31:27Is that the boy you're seeing?
31:31Oh.
31:32No, we're not a couple.
31:34I'm single.
31:36You're not a couple.
31:37I was an orphan.
31:39Luke's family adopted me.
31:42They weren't rich or anything, but they were amazing.
31:46Luke and I grew up like siblings.
31:49We've been through everything together.
31:51Wow.
31:52That's heavy.
31:54I feel lucky.
31:55Aaron, stay with me.
32:09Aaron, stay with me.
32:25You're not a couple.
32:43Yeah.
32:46Mia.
32:47Mia.
32:47Wake up, Mia. He's engaged and hates kids.
33:01Mia, are you the girl from the Lancaster Hotel that night in Vegas?
33:17Good morning, Mr. James. Your shirt was torn, so I got you a new one.
33:24Where'd you get this?
33:26At the department store.
33:30You couldn't find anything better?
33:33It's excellent quality, just off the rack.
33:38Excellent, huh?
33:42Just try it on.
33:47How do I look?
34:01Perfect. Looks great on you.
34:04If you hate it, I can get you something else.
34:08No. No, I won't.
34:17Don't worry.
34:25Mia, I need those fires right away.
34:27Okay.
34:29A thorn.
34:31I am so sorry, Mr. Clark.
34:33Oh, Mia, it's good to see you. You look beautiful. Have they been treating you well here?
34:38It's gonna leave a stain.
34:40I'm not worried about this shirt. Might you consider working for me?
34:43I appreciate that.
34:45But it's my mistake. I'll get you an insured.
34:47Oh.
34:48Oh, so you wanna see me out of this shirt.
35:04Aaron, how do I look?
35:06Oh.
35:07Uh, what are you wearing?
35:11Mia gave it to me.
35:13Oh.
35:14Well, Mia got me this shirt after we shared a motel room together, so I'd say she likes me a little bit more.
35:21You saw Mia and Clark together?
35:29They looked very comfortable together.
35:32Mia Clark has a nice ring to it.
35:38Mr. James!
35:42Is there something you two should be doing?
35:45I'm not paying you to gossip.
35:48I'm sorry, sorry.
35:50Sorry, Mr. James.
35:55Oh, I'm sorry.
35:57No, no, no. I can do it myself, Mr. James.
36:02You're pregnant?
