00:00:00Bradley, I'm pregnant.

00:00:02You're going to be your father.

00:00:05What's she doing here?

00:00:07What do you think?

00:00:08No need to hide anymore.

00:00:10I'm leaving you.

00:00:12For Catherine.

00:00:13Unlike you, I'm young and rich.

00:00:16I can give Bradley what he deserves.

00:00:18Catherine hired me to be vice president in her family's hospital.

00:00:21She's also way better in bed.

00:00:23What's that?

00:00:30She's pregnant.

00:00:31What?

00:00:33She must be faking it to trap you.

00:00:35No, it's me so desperate.

00:00:38Give it back. Stop.

00:00:40Give it back.

00:01:00What happened?

00:01:11The baby.

00:01:12Is the baby okay?

00:01:17I'm so sorry.

00:01:20We've lost the baby.

00:01:24I'm so sorry.

00:01:30We're right here, sweetheart.

00:01:32We're right here.

00:01:41I won't let Bradley and that woman get away with this.

00:01:46I'm ready to come back, Dad.

00:01:48Well, revenge won't heal the heart.

00:01:50This isn't about revenge.

00:01:52This is about holding them accountable.

00:01:54Are you sure you're ready for this?

00:01:56I've been preparing for years, Mom.

00:01:58Okay.

00:02:00But there is a condition.

00:02:06I have an important announcement.

00:02:08My daughter, Mia Gerber, will be the new CEO of Gerber Corporation.

00:02:13Is Mia ready for such a big role?

00:02:15I've been concealing my identity to go undercover within the industry.

00:02:18I've learned our competitors from the inside.

00:02:21Trust me.

00:02:23I'm more than ready.

00:02:24Furthermore, Mia will marry Joshua Lane from Lane Holdings.

00:02:33Mia will marry Joshua Lane from Lane Holdings.

00:02:35There is a condition.

00:02:40You're going to have to marry Joshua Lane, the heir of Lane Holdings.

00:02:45Mia's never even met this guy before.

00:02:47It's a strategic alliance, Noah.

00:02:51It's what's best for our families and the company.

00:02:54I'll do it.

00:02:54I'll marry Joshua Lane if that's what it takes.

00:03:00And this alliance will strengthen our company and secure our future.

00:03:08Isn't Joshua Lane fans for being called them Ruffles?

00:03:20That's what I heard.

00:03:21I think it'll be good for the company.

00:03:23I don't think it'll be good for the new CEO.

00:03:24Joshua, I was hoping we could...

00:03:47Not interested.

00:03:48Get lost.

00:03:52Man, you are brutal.

00:03:54That's the fifth girl you've turned down tonight.

00:03:57Hey, I heard you're getting hitched to Mia Gerber.

00:03:59Why didn't you turn her down?

00:04:01This marriage is what my parents want.

00:04:03Couldn't care less about her.

00:04:04Oh, come on.

00:04:05She's the heiress to the Gerber Corporation.

00:04:07There must be some perks to her.

00:04:09Perks are not.

00:04:10She'll learn quickly that I'm not one to be messed with.

00:04:12Gonna give her a hard time, huh?

00:04:14Let's just say that she's got something coming.

00:04:24Do you, Joshua Lane, take Mia Gerber for your lawfully wedded wife?

00:04:31I do.

00:04:34And you, Mia Gerber, do you take Joshua Lane for your lawfully wedded husband?

00:04:39I do.

00:04:41Uh, the rings?

00:04:42You may now kiss the bride.

00:04:52Let's get one thing straight, Mia.

00:05:07This marriage is a show for our family and the rest of the world.

00:05:11Don't expect any affection from me.

00:05:13Understood.

00:05:15And vice versa.

00:05:15My parents want to set up a dinner with us.

00:05:34My assistant will set it up.

00:05:35She can coordinate schedules with my assistant.

00:05:37Done.

00:05:38Done.

00:05:45You're right.

00:05:47Alex and Eleanor Lane are behind a smear campaign against Joshua.

00:05:50Blue Diamond PR is already involved.

00:05:53What agency are we using?

00:05:55We're still deciding.

00:05:56Bids are open for this year's contract.

00:05:59Perfect.

00:06:01I have a plan.

00:06:05I'm offering the Gerber Corporation's annual PR budget.

00:06:09It's one of the largest in the industry.

00:06:11That's an enticing offer, Ms. Gerber.

00:06:13What do you ask of me in return?

00:06:17I need you to withdraw from any campaign against Joshua Lane.

00:06:20I don't mind.

00:06:21I'll cover the cancellation fee.

00:06:28You have a deal.

00:06:30The Gerber Corporation account is too good to pass up.

00:06:34There's a little more.

00:06:36I need you to spread the word.

00:06:37Any PR firm that goes against Joshua Lane will be blacklisted from the Gerber Corporation and our allies.

00:06:45You got it.

00:06:46No one in this industry would be stupid enough to fight against the Gerber Corporation.

00:06:52Wonderful.

00:06:53Thanks.

00:06:54Looking forward to a fruitful partnership.

00:06:55I have evidence of Alex's scheme against you.

00:07:04But don't worry, I've already taken care of it.

00:07:08I always knew Eleanor and Alex to be after my position.

00:07:12I just didn't expect Alex to be this bold.

00:07:15How do you know about this?

00:07:16Alex struck me as opportunistic.

00:07:18A smear campaign is the easiest way to sway the shareholders' opinion.

00:07:21And Eleanor's background in PR made this move predictable.

00:07:25You're more perceptive than I thought.

00:07:28Why are you helping me?

00:07:32Our family's alliance is crucial.

00:07:35Protecting you means protecting the Gerber Corporation.

00:07:37It's all business.

00:07:41Business, right.

00:07:44Well, in that case, I should help you with your beef with Catherine and Bradley, right?

00:07:49How did you know about that?

00:07:51You didn't expect me to enter into the marriage without doing background checks.

00:07:56I just don't get what the big deal about your ex is.

00:07:58I mean, he cheated on you.

00:08:01So what?

00:08:04She must be faking it to trap you.

00:08:09How dare you?

00:08:10You had no right to dig into my past like that.

00:08:14I can take care of myself.

00:08:16Watch this happen.

00:08:24To your new position as senior VP.

00:08:28And it's all thanks to my help, of course.

00:08:31Absolutely.

00:08:32You're my lucky charm, honey.

00:08:33Imagine if I'd stayed with Mia.

00:08:41Poor and tireless.

00:08:42That's all she ever was.

00:08:43She's a joke.

00:08:45A stepping stone at best.

00:08:47You by my side, we are unstoppable.

00:08:49Tathryn's hospital is resisting our acquisition.

00:09:04Bradley, as the new senior VP, is leading the pushback.

00:09:08Do they know I'm the CEO yet?

00:09:09Now, as per your request.

00:09:11Perfect. Keep at it.

00:09:18Now, how do I pull this off?

00:09:28There are gaps in Mia's medical record right after her breakup.

00:09:32These are from the Gerber Corporation's own hospital.

00:09:35Only someone higher up from within can access it.

00:09:39I want to know what happened to Mia during that gap.

00:09:46After the breakup.

00:09:48Even if I know, why would I tell you?

00:09:50Mia helped me.

00:09:51But unless I understand that part of the puzzle,

00:09:54I won't be able to return her favor.

00:09:56Do you care for her?

00:09:58You don't dislike her?

00:10:01Now, Mia deserves someone who truly loves her.

00:10:05Not you.

00:10:06She's a grown woman.

00:10:08She knows what she wants.

00:10:09Nobody gets to tell her what she deserves.

00:10:11Especially not you.

00:10:20You can choose not to share the information,

00:10:23but you won't be helping her.

00:10:25your choice.

00:10:30All right, look.

00:10:32If you have to know,

00:10:34unfortunately,

00:10:36Mia had a miscarriage

00:10:38because of an accident involving Bradley and Catherine.

00:18:33Hey!

00:18:35Help!

00:18:43Thought you could get rid of us, Mia?

00:18:47You and Joshua will regret ever crossing us.

00:18:53Don't bring him into this, you bitch!

00:19:01That's for talking back to me.

00:19:13Look at you, just as pathetic as the day you fell.

00:19:19Of course I could have saved you, but why would I?

00:19:23You and your baby are worth nothing.

00:19:27Joshua Lane?

00:19:33Listen.

00:19:35We have Mia Gerber. You want her back?

00:19:37Get ready with a hefty ransom.

00:19:39I'll pay the rights.

00:19:41But listen to me clearly.

00:19:43I will hunt you down and you'll wish you never cross me!

00:19:47Yeah.

00:19:53Based on the footage from Mia's car camera, it seems Bradley and Catherine are behind this.

00:19:58These are the possible locations where Mia can be.

00:20:03This one.

00:20:13Mia.

00:20:15I got you.

00:20:17I got you.

00:20:19Let's get you out of here.

00:20:21I got you.

00:20:22Let's get you out of here.

00:20:37I got you.

00:20:39What is that?

00:20:41Oof!

00:21:02Josh, Josh, stop!

00:21:04It's not worth it.

00:21:11It's not worth it.

00:21:36Made you some soup.

00:21:41It's very unique.

00:21:47What is this?

00:21:48My mom's recipe.

00:21:50Before she passed away, she used to make it for me when I was sick.

00:21:53Thought it might come from you.

00:21:56Must have made it wrong.

00:21:57It's wonderful.

00:21:59I don't know how to thank you enough.

00:22:02It's nothing.

00:22:04I just did what I had to do.

00:22:07Josh, is this still just a marriage of convenience for you?

00:22:13Excuse me, Mr. and Mrs. Lane. A guest has arrived. Her name is Susie Harper.

00:22:18Susie's back.

00:22:19Oh, I've missed you so much.

00:22:30Susie, it's been ages.

00:22:32When's the last time we saw each other?

00:22:33Um, four years ago.

00:22:34Before I went abroad.

00:22:36It's been too long.

00:22:37Welcome back, Susie.

00:22:38I came back just for you.

00:22:39Oh, there's so much.

00:22:40Hey.

00:22:41Uh, Susie, this is my wife, Mia.

00:22:43Um, Mia, this is Susie, an old friend of mine.

00:22:45So, you're the one Joshua had to marry.

00:22:48Oh, Susie, that's enough.

00:22:49No.

00:22:50Oh, you're the one Joshua had to marry.

00:22:51No, Susie.

00:22:52That's enough.

00:22:53Joshua and I have a special bond.

00:22:56You know, we've been friends since, like, forever.

00:23:00He means a lot to me.

00:23:02I want him to be happy.

00:23:04I think we all want that.

00:23:06Yes, sir.

00:23:07All right.

00:23:08What?

00:23:09All right.

00:23:10Hey.

00:23:11How are you doing?

00:23:12I'm good.

00:23:13How are you doing?

00:23:14How are you doing?

00:23:15How are you doing?

00:23:16How are you doing?

00:23:17I think we all want that.

00:23:19Do you?

00:23:20Joshua and I talk often over the phone.

00:23:23He confides in me.

00:23:25I'm one of the few he truly trusts.

00:23:27He mentioned he was quite unhappy about the marriage.

00:23:31Right.

00:23:33Well, it seems like you two have a lot to catch up on.

00:23:35So, I'll leave you to it.

00:23:41Susie, why would you say those things?

00:23:45I told you I have doubts before the wedding, not since then.

00:23:48Joshua, you're clearly unhappy.

00:23:51I was just speaking up for you.

00:23:53I don't need you to look out for me.

00:23:56I'm sorry.

00:23:58I just...

00:24:00I was trying to help since you clearly didn't want the marriage.

00:24:06I don't mind it now.

00:24:08Do you like her?

00:24:10She's fine.

00:24:12This means I still have a chance.

00:24:16Joshua.

00:24:18If I had stayed by your side, you never would have had to marry a complete stranger like Mia Gerber.

00:24:24I'm sure it hasn't been pleasant.

00:24:27Now that I'm back, you can always talk to me.

00:24:31Susie, you're a great friend.

00:24:33Of course.

00:24:34I'll always be there for you.

00:24:43How's it going?

00:24:46It's this marriage.

00:24:47It's Joshua.

00:24:48He's like a shadow.

00:24:49He's always there, but never really close.

00:24:54You deserve someone who can give you all the love and appreciation you need.

00:24:57Remember, if you ever need anything, I'm here.

00:25:03Thank you, Noah.

00:25:06How could I live without you?

00:25:11I can't live without you.

00:25:13I'll do everything to protect you, Mia.

00:25:34How could I live without you?

00:25:35I'll do everything to protect you, Mia.

00:25:38I'll do everything to protect you, Mia.

00:25:51Joshua!

00:25:55We can't be like this forever.

00:25:56We have to talk.

00:26:00Why don't you talk to Noah?

00:26:02Seems like you have plenty to say to him.

00:26:03I don't even know what that means.

00:26:05There's nothing between Noah and me.

00:26:07You and Susie, on the other hand.

00:26:09What?

00:26:11Whatever you think, I don't care.

00:26:29What's he doing here?

00:26:30Look.

00:26:33I'm here to deliver some documents to Mia.

00:26:45And if you ever hurt her, just know that I will protect her at all costs.

00:26:50And what exactly have you done to protect her?

00:26:53Seems like all talk but no action.

00:26:54What are you two doing?

00:26:58What's going on here?

00:26:59Joshua, why are you acting so abrasion?

00:27:01This is ridiculous.

00:27:02You invite him into our house just to talk to him?

00:27:04I didn't invite-

00:27:05Joshua!

00:27:07I'm sorry, Mia.

00:27:08I didn't mean to cause any grip between you two.

00:27:10It wasn't my intention.

00:27:11It's fine.

00:27:13Why are you here?

00:27:14I'm here to protect you and the company.

00:27:16I suspect that Dwayne Kaiser has been conspiring with Melody Healthcare.

00:27:23Is that Dwayne?

00:27:25And the CEO of Melody Healthcare.

00:27:26This plan is our game changer.

00:27:33What about Melody Healthcare?

00:27:35They're our biggest rival.

00:27:37They're going in a completely different direction.

00:27:39We are way ahead of them.

00:27:41And how do you know that?

00:27:42The CEO approached me the other day.

00:27:45He tried to get some information from me, but I flipped it and got some information from him.

00:27:50Like I'd be trying my own company.

00:27:52It would be a fool to think that.

00:27:54Right. Of course, Dwayne.

00:27:56Let's go ahead with the plan.

00:28:05See? He's fine.

00:28:07I don't know. There's something strange about him.

00:28:10I can't put my finger on it, but just keep your eyes open, okay?

00:28:15I will.

00:28:19Mia suspected, but I made her trust me now.

00:28:24Let's go ahead and move forward with the plan.

00:28:27Excellent.

00:28:29Once we execute the strategy, the Gerbers will be blindsided.

00:28:33Melody Healthcare will be the number one.

00:28:36Mia Gerber will be out of the company.

00:28:40And I'll be the number one.

00:28:47How did they get ahead of us?

00:28:49This was our strategy.

00:28:51Where's Dwayne?

00:28:52He's outside.

00:28:53Melody Healthcare just announced their new AI-generated online psychiatric care.

00:29:09The similarity of the details to ours is...

00:29:14Uncanny.

00:29:16I don't know.

00:29:18We kept everything under wraps.

00:29:20They must have developed this independently.

00:29:23Mia.

00:29:24You're just too young.

00:29:25You're not experienced enough in this business world.

00:29:28This stuff happens.

00:29:29I'm experienced enough to know that this is not a coincidence.

00:29:33And I don't need you to tell me what I do and do not know.

00:29:37You can move.

00:29:38Why do you look so sullen all the time?

00:29:54Doesn't look good on you.

00:29:55Wow.

00:29:59Thanks for the comfort.

00:30:04Dammit.

00:30:05Why did I have to say that like that?

00:30:09Miss Gerber, an emergency board meeting has been called.

00:30:11What?

00:30:20We need to talk about the leadership of this company.

00:30:23It is clear that Mia's recent decisions, well, they've been questionable.

00:30:32Acquiring Kathryn Finney's hospital was a big misstep.

00:30:37Now Melody's healthcare is outpacing us.

00:30:39Mia, I'm sorry, but you're too young and inexperienced to be in this role.

00:30:45I believe under my leadership, our profits have already increased by 20% compared to last year.

00:30:52That's due to the overall market trend.

00:30:55Not because you're leadership.

00:30:58My strategies have been more than effective.

00:31:01The Finley acquisition has potential long-term benefits.

00:31:04And our growth, by the way, is not just a fluke.

00:31:07This company, this board needs a leader with experience and vision, not someone learning on a job.

00:31:16As a senior VP, on behalf of all the employees with Gerber Corporation, we support Mia.

00:31:21I also have evidence that Dwayne Kaiser has been conspiring with Melody Healthcare to undermine the company.

00:31:27I also have evidence that Dwayne Kaiser has been conspiring with Melody Healthcare to undermine the company.

00:31:32What is this? What are you doing?

00:31:38These are communications between Dwayne and Melody Healthcare. He leaked our strategy.

00:31:43You're fired, Dwayne. Effective immediately.

00:31:49I've been with you since you founded the company.

00:31:51All these years I'm never the CEO, but you give it to your daughter?

00:31:54I've always known you were ambitious, but I never thought you would stoop this load.

00:31:59Your lack of trustworthiness is why you were never CEO.

00:32:03We built this company on integrity and trust. Values you clearly lack.

00:32:10Security, escort Mr. Kaiser out.

00:32:14Wait.

00:32:15Dean.

00:32:26Mia, we're so proud of you. You really handled the crisis well.

00:32:32You truly are a go-go.

00:32:37Noah, I can't thank you enough.

00:32:39Of course. You know I'd do anything for you.

00:32:42You know, I never asked, but how did you get your hands on those documents?

00:32:47It all started with an anonymous tip.

00:32:50Someone delivered photos of Dwayne meeting with the owner of Melody Healthcare,

00:32:54and I intercepted the tip.

00:32:58This is your schedule for the week.

00:33:00And what's this?

00:33:02Seems to be about Mr. Kaiser.

00:33:04Okay, I'll take that too. Thanks.

00:33:12Anonymous. Who would do that?

00:33:18I don't know, but the photos led me to dig deeper,

00:33:22and eventually I found clear evidence of his betrayal.

00:33:26Can I see the photos?

00:33:34I think I might know who's behind this, but I need to confirm.

00:33:37Ethan, I need to talk to you about these photos.

00:33:41Is this you? In the reflection?

00:33:43Were you following Dwayne?

00:33:45Yeah, it's me.

00:33:47Joshua asked me to keep an eye on Dwayne.

00:33:49He's had his suspicions about Dwayne's loyalty for a while.

00:33:51We then delivered the photos.

00:33:53Mr. Lane, what a surprise.

00:33:55Should I tell Miss Lane you're here?

00:33:57No need to.

00:33:59Why couldn't Joshua just tell me about his suspicions?

00:34:12Joshua's a...

00:34:14He's a complicated man.

00:34:16He means well, but he struggles with expressing himself.

00:34:19He's never gone through such steps for anyone before Mia.

00:34:21This must mean he cares about you.

00:34:24He could just talk to me next time.

00:34:27Well, Joshua has his ways.

00:34:30He might not show it, but he cares deeply.

00:34:33I just ask that you...

00:34:35Don't hurt him.

00:34:37I won't.

00:34:40You're a loyal friend, Ethan.

00:34:49Joshua, I need to talk to you.

00:34:51It's about Dwayne Kaiser and Melody Healthcare.

00:34:54What about it?

00:34:56I know you sent Ethan to follow Dwayne.

00:34:58Why didn't you just talk to me?

00:35:00It just seemed like the best course of action at the time.

00:35:02Joshua, is there more to this marriage than the alliance?

00:35:06Did you do it because...

00:35:08No, no. It's nothing like that.

00:35:10I just couldn't have my wife being voted out as CEO on paper.

00:35:13It would look bad for me.

00:35:14So it's all about appearances?

00:35:16Yes, Mia.

00:35:18It's all it ever is.

00:35:20We agreed to a business arrangement.

00:35:22Joshua, I'm so tired of this.

00:35:24Of living in a fantasy where I never actually get to know you.

00:35:28I'm more than just a tool for business advancement or keeping up appearances.

00:35:33Keeping up appearances.

00:35:36I want a divorce.

00:35:40I want a divorce.

00:35:45Are you sure about this?

00:35:46I deserve something real in my life, Joshua.

00:35:51Not this...

00:35:53facade.

00:35:55I deserve to be more than just a business arrangement in somebody's life.

00:35:59I want genuine happiness.

00:36:01I understand.

00:36:03If that's what you want.

00:36:08Joshua, please.

00:36:12Let's proceed with the divorce.

00:36:16I'm having my wife.

00:36:17Big man.

00:36:18I'm having a wife.

00:36:19I love her.

00:36:20We miss her.

00:36:21I have enough women and her daughter.

00:36:23I love her.

00:36:24I love her.

00:36:25One, two, three, three.

00:36:27I love her.

00:36:29I love you.

00:36:31It's about forever.

00:36:33You're like me.

00:36:35I love you to be one of my friends.

00:36:38I love you.

00:36:39I love you.

00:36:40I love you.

00:36:41I love you.

00:36:43I love you.

00:36:44Joshua, what are you doing to yourself?

00:36:56Mia.

00:36:57Mia?

00:36:59Here, don't leave, don't leave.

00:37:01You're drunk.

00:37:02Please, help me take him to his car.

00:37:05No, no, no.

00:37:07I'll take him to my place, he shouldn't be alone.

00:37:11Okay.

00:37:12Let's go.

00:37:14Mia.

00:37:24Mia.

00:37:32Morning, Josh.

00:37:34Here, drink this.

00:37:36You've had quite a night.

00:37:38Susie.

00:37:40Where am I?

00:37:42This is my apartment.

00:37:43Nothing bad happened.

00:37:46I also drove your car back here.

00:37:48How did I get here?

00:37:50You were really drunk.

00:37:52I didn't think you should be alone.

00:37:55Josh, what happened?

00:37:57It's over between me and Mia.

00:38:00We're getting a divorce.

00:38:00Maybe it was never meant to be.

00:38:09You deserve someone who understands and loves you.

00:38:30No, I...

00:38:39I can't do this, Susie.

00:38:42Why?

00:38:43I have always loved you.

00:38:46Now that you and me are getting a divorce, we can finally be together.

00:38:49Susie, you are a dear friend and like a little sister.

00:38:54It can't be anything more.

00:38:57I'm sorry.

00:38:59Do you really love that Mia Kerber?

00:39:04Uh...

00:39:04Yes, as a matter of fact, I do.

00:39:08I need to go tell her.

00:39:11Now.

00:39:11You're calling to the origin to an automatic appointment.

00:39:37I need to go tell you.

00:40:06Uh...

00:40:06Sorry.

00:40:08It's the hospital.

00:40:10Hello?

00:40:11What?

00:40:12What happened?

00:40:13Is he okay?

00:40:16Okay, yeah.

00:40:16I'll be right there.

00:40:18What's wrong?

00:40:19It's Joshua.

00:40:20He's been in an accident.

00:40:28Excuse me.

00:40:29Excuse me.

00:40:30I'm here for Joshua Lane.

00:40:31Okay.

00:40:36I'm here for Joshua.

00:40:41Miss Kerber?

00:40:42Yeah.

00:40:43We found that Mr. Lane was attempting to call you when the accident occurred.

00:40:48It's somebody's fault.

00:40:52It was nobody's fault.

00:40:53It was an accident.

00:40:55But right now, he needs you.

00:40:58Do your best to help him wake up, will you?

00:40:59I won't leave you, Joshua.

00:41:07You remember that soup you made me?

00:41:10It meant the world to me.

00:41:11And whenever you get better, I'm going to make you that soup.

00:41:19Because I know it was your mom's recipe.

00:41:22It was those little moments with you.

00:41:26You know, whenever we would wake up and come out of our rooms and see each other in the morning,

00:41:32sometimes that was the happiest part of my day.

00:41:34Please come back to me.

00:41:49This is all your fault, Mia.

00:41:51You drove him to this.

00:41:54You hurt him.

00:41:55And now, look what's happened to him.

00:41:57Okay.

00:41:58Okay.

00:41:59Okay.

00:42:00Okay.

00:42:04Mia, we have a problem.

00:42:07Eleanor and Alex are plotting to make Alex the new CEO while Joshua's in a coma.

00:42:12Now even Joshua's father's been convinced.

00:42:14So they're using Joshua's condition to their advantage.

00:42:17I won't stand for it.

00:42:18What's the plan?

00:42:20I'm meeting with Mr. Lang.

00:42:22He's a key shareholder of Lane Holdings.

00:42:24His voice can sway their own.

00:42:28Thank you for agreeing to meet me on such short notice, Mr. Lang.

00:42:31I've always been curious about the famous Mia Gerber.

00:42:34After all, you're the one who led Gerber Corporation to the next level.

00:42:37You too, Craig.

00:42:38I'm merely stating a fact.

00:42:40Not everyone in the second generation is as capable as you.

00:42:44So, tell me, why do you want to see me?

00:42:48Is it about Alex being the new CEO?

00:42:50You're a wise man, Mr. Lang.

00:42:53Joshua's vision has been the driving force behind Lane Holdings.

00:42:57We cannot allow Alex to derail that.

00:43:00I can't do anything at this time.

00:43:03Joshua is out of commission.

00:43:05It's best to have someone lead the company.

00:43:07Gerald is not in good health after a stroke.

00:43:11Alex is the only choice.

00:43:13And what if I told you there's another choice?

00:43:16And what if I told you there's another choice?

00:43:22I can be the interim CEO of Lane Holdings as Joshua's legal wife.

00:43:27I can uphold his legacy.

00:43:29And as you mentioned before, I'm a very capable CEO in my own right.

00:43:32Your vote, of course, is crucial, but more than anything, people trust your judgment.

00:43:39If you choose to have faith in me, others will follow.

00:43:42And I promise, I won't disappoint.

00:43:45Can you run two companies at the same time?

00:43:49I have a very capable team over at Gerber Corporation.

00:43:52They'll keep things running smoothly, even if I'm not there full time.

00:43:55I'll devote my time to Lane Holdings until Joshua gets better.

00:44:00What if he doesn't?

00:44:02He will.

00:44:04I admire your tenacity.

00:44:06I'll do what I can.

00:44:08Thank you, Mr. Lang.

00:44:09I'll fight for you, Joshua.

00:44:30You did the same for me.

00:44:35And we'll let you down.

00:44:39Given Joshua's current condition, I propose Mia Gerber as the interim CEO of Lane Holdings.

00:44:49Mia Gerber?

00:44:51She's from a different company.

00:44:53How is she even qualified?

00:44:54Mia is Joshua's wife, the legal heir.

00:44:57She's proven her capabilities with Gerber Corporation.

00:45:00Combining the strengths of both companies and her leadership will only make Lane Holdings strong.

00:45:05This is absurd.

00:45:06Mia is practically a stranger to our company's operations.

00:45:11While I appreciate your concerns, I think my track record speaks for itself.

00:45:17And unlike Alex here, who has had his hand in multiple questionable business dealings,

00:45:23I offer a clean slate and a fresh perspective.

00:45:27I agree with Mr. Lane.

00:45:29Mia's appointment as interim CEO is the best course of action for now.

00:45:33But, Dad, stop, Alex.

00:45:41Joshua, I hope you're proud.

00:45:46Let's go.

00:45:48You ain't gonna take over, no consequences, Mia?

00:45:52I'm gonna make her, pay?

00:45:55Won't be touching her.

00:45:56Who the fuck are you?

00:46:03Damn it, she's gone.

00:46:05Take care of me.

00:46:14See the security camera?

00:46:16I'm gonna get the footage.

00:46:17And if you ever try and hurt me again, I'll call the police.

00:46:21You'll never become the CEO of Lane Holdings.

00:46:23Ever.

00:46:24God damn it!

00:46:35Thanks.

00:46:36Noah, what happened?

00:46:45Don't worry, I'm fine.

00:46:47You're not fine, you're bleeding.

00:46:52Are you okay?

00:46:57Thanks, but the reason I came over was because I wanted to finish our conversation from before.

00:47:03Mrs. Lane, it's Mr. Lane, he's waking up from the coma.

00:47:09I have to go to the hospital.

00:47:11I just want to tell you something important.

00:47:13No, no, nothing's more important than Joshua right now.

00:47:19Joshua, Joshua, Joshua.

00:47:21It's fucking Joshua.

00:47:26When you wake up, we can be together.

00:47:31Mia doesn't deserve you.

00:47:33But you and I, we're meant to be.

00:47:41Mia.

00:47:43Joshua, you're awake.

00:47:47Mia.

00:47:49Excuse me, miss.

00:47:52Mr. Lane?

00:47:55Mr. Lane?

00:47:57Mia.

00:47:58Can you hear me, sir?

00:48:00Mia.

00:48:00Call his wife, Mia Gerber, immediately.

00:48:03Mr. Lane, I need you to concentrate for me.

00:48:05Do you remember what day it is?

00:48:07Mia.

00:48:08Yes.

00:48:09We're getting your wife right now, sir.

00:48:16Joshua.

00:48:17I'm sorry, this is all my fault.

00:48:19No, Mia.

00:48:21Don't blame yourself.

00:48:22It's a price I was willing to pay.

00:48:25You got hurt because of me.

00:48:27Mia, listen to me.

00:48:32I'm sorry for all the pain I've caused you.

00:48:35For not being honest about my feelings.

00:48:38I was afraid to admit it.

00:48:41Even to myself.

00:48:42I can't hide it anymore.

00:48:45I love you, Mia.

00:48:48I never thought I'd hear you say those words.

00:48:52You should have said them sooner.

00:48:56I love you too, Joshua.

00:48:57I love you too, Joshua.

00:49:27What do you want, Dwayne?

00:49:28Just to talk?

00:49:29You are underappreciated, Noah.

00:49:34Maybe we could help each other out.

00:49:40Thank you for standing up for me while I was out.

00:49:44I heard you manage as interim CEO of Lane Holdings.

00:49:47I handled things.

00:49:48I actually have a business meeting later today with a potential partner.

00:49:54Who's the partner?

00:49:55Kevin Katz.

00:49:58He's a key player in the industry.

00:50:01Katz?

00:50:02He's notorious for being pansy with business partners.

00:50:06I don't like the idea of you two being alone.

00:50:09I can handle Katz.

00:50:11We've dealt with worse.

00:50:12Just be careful, all right?

00:50:16I will.

00:50:21I promise.

00:50:24Hey.

00:50:26I gotta go.

00:50:28I'm not good.

00:50:28So our collaboration will be mutually beneficial, especially when expanding into new markets.

00:50:40Absolutely, Mia.

00:50:42I've always admired Lane Holdings.

00:50:44Now with you at the helm, perhaps we can find ways to make our partnership more enjoyable.

00:50:52Mr. Katz, let's keep this strictly professional.

00:50:58Oh, come on, Mia.

00:50:59Don't be such a prude.

00:51:01Business is more fun when there's a personal touch.

00:51:08Don't you agree?

00:51:11I will not be doing business with people who cannot respect personal boundaries.

00:51:16You'll regret this, bitch.

00:51:19I could ruin Lane Holdings' reputation.

00:51:22Now you have one last chance.

00:51:25Ow!

00:51:30That's for being a disgusting pig.

00:51:40Hey.

00:51:41How'd the meeting go?

00:51:45Let's just say Kevin Katz won't be bothering us anymore.

00:51:48What did he do?

00:51:50I handled it.

00:51:52Okay.

00:51:53Let's just focus on getting you better and back in charge.

00:51:58Can I get you some water?

00:52:10Ethan, get the bodyguard and meet me downstairs.

00:52:12I can't explain right now.

00:52:13Just do it.

00:52:14Where's Joshua?

00:52:21Mr. Lane checked out.

00:52:22He insisted he was well enough to leave.

00:52:24No, he's not fully recovered yet.

00:52:31What are you trying to do?

00:52:32Teach you a lesson that you can't touch Joshua Lane's woman.

00:52:35You can't do this.

00:52:43Lane, I can sue you and you'll end up in jail.

00:52:47This is you, Mr. Katz.

00:52:49Doing something quite illegal.

00:52:52I must say, your taste is really reprehensible.

00:52:54You can't sue me.

00:52:57It was a long time ago.

00:52:59If I could still release the video, you'll lose everything.

00:53:03In fact, I'll just tell you.

00:53:05If the victim's identity was protected, then they'll be set for the rest of their life.

00:53:11You!

00:53:12If you so much as speak a word about me or me, I'll make sure you wish you were born.

00:53:22Where were you?

00:53:23I was worried sick.

00:53:24I had to take care of something.

00:53:26About cats.

00:53:27I told you I handled it.

00:53:29I can take care of myself.

00:53:31I won't allow anyone laying their hands on you.

00:53:33Still, it's so reckless!

00:53:38It's okay now.

00:53:40You handled it?

00:53:41I did.

00:53:42I'm flattered by the jealousy.

00:53:46I really do love you, Joshua.

00:53:50I love you too, Mia.

00:53:54I have a surprise for you.

00:53:57I made something for you.

00:54:07What's this?

00:54:09It's your mom's recipe.

00:54:11I found it in a cookbook in the library.

00:54:16I can't believe you made this.

00:54:19I thought it might bring you some comfort.

00:54:21I thought it might bring you some comfort.

00:54:27This is exactly how she used to make it.

00:54:33How'd you get it so right?

00:54:35I may have had some help from the internet and about 50 practice runs.

00:54:40You're just the best.

00:54:48We have a plan that could ship the balance of power in our favor.

00:54:52Our plan didn't overthrow Mia Gerber and the Gerber Corporation, but this time, we will.

00:55:00I just, I don't want Mia to lose everything.

00:55:04I promise you, she won't.

00:55:07With the Gerber family's fortune, Mia's set for life.

00:55:10She just won't be the CEO anymore.

00:55:13Think about this.

00:55:15With the Gerber family out of practice, Lane Holdings, they won't partner with them.

00:55:20Joshua and Lane will probably divorce Mia because she's no use to him.

00:55:24Mia could finally be yours.

00:55:27Here's the plan.

00:55:29We target Gerber Corporation's medical device supplier network.

00:55:33Disrupting it will cause significant issues in the hospital and psychiatric care units.

00:55:39And we proceed.

00:55:41Melody Healthcare has insiders inside their supply chain.

00:55:45We'll start by creating delays and quality issues.

00:55:48The fallout will be immediate and devastating.

00:55:51The resources stretch so thin.

00:55:54They won't even see us coming.

00:56:04Why are there so many cancelled contracts with Gerber Corporation?

00:56:09Hey.

00:56:11You haven't noticed any suppliers backing out of deals with Gerber Corporation.

00:56:17There are rumors someone's been persuading them to cut ties with the Gerbers.

00:56:24What do you mean they've stopped supplying to us?

00:56:38Noah, the suppliers are backing out for no reason.

00:56:54It's a competitive market, Mia.

00:56:56Yeah, but this feels coordinated.

00:56:58Isn't that unusual?

00:56:58Yeah, it is, so I'm going to look into it.

00:57:03Hey, are you okay?

00:57:05Yeah, I'm fine.

00:57:05I'm just busy.

00:57:07Don't worry about me.

00:57:09Okay.

00:57:09You look like you've been through a war zone.

00:57:19What will happen?

00:57:20It's the supplier crisis.

00:57:22The situation's worse than I thought.

00:57:27I don't know what to do, Joshua.

00:57:29We'll get through this together.

00:57:44Thank you all for coming.

00:57:46We understand your concerns, and we're prepared to increase profits to maintain our partnerships.

00:57:52Now, the offer looks good.

00:58:05But we heard some rumors of internal issues within the corporation company involving a higher level.

00:58:12Let me assure you, Gerber Corporation is as strong as ever.

00:58:17These rumors are unfounded.

00:58:22You're right.

00:58:29There are gaps in Noah's whereabouts.

00:58:31Keep digging, Ethan.

00:58:32We need concrete evidence.

00:58:38Mia, Noah might be involved with the issues at the company.

00:58:42There's no way he's very loyal to the company.

00:58:45Although he has been acting weird lately.

00:58:48Have you ever considered he might have feelings for you?

00:58:50I mean, feelings make us do things.

00:58:54Noah, Noah's a brother to me.

00:58:57He's never even said anything remotely romantic.

00:59:00Actions speak louder than words.

00:59:03I mean, sure, he's supportive and caring, but that's just Noah being Noah.

00:59:08I really don't think there's anything more to it.

00:59:10Sometimes the people closest to us surprise us the most.

00:59:15Hey, just wanted to check in.

00:59:21We haven't had any time to talk lately.

00:59:23I've been good.

00:59:24I've just been busy dealing with the supplier crisis.

00:59:27I know.

00:59:27And I'm really grateful for you.

00:59:29You've done so much.

00:59:30I never wanted you to be burdened.

00:59:32I care too much about you.

00:59:33Hey, uh, I have a question.

00:59:43You don't secretly have feelings for me, do you?

00:59:50What if I do?

00:59:55Oh, uh, really?

01:00:00I've put this off for too long.

01:00:03And I need to tell you now.

01:00:04I've loved you since the first time I met you.

01:00:11I still remember that day like it was yesterday.

01:00:14You were just starting college and came to visit the office during summer break.

01:00:19You wore a blue dress and looked like a princess.

01:00:23I was just starting off at the company.

01:00:25I come from a humble background, so I never thought I could be with someone like you.

01:00:31Not anymore.

01:00:32No, I'm stronger.

01:00:36I'm more capable now.

01:00:38I know we should be together here.

01:00:42Noah.

01:00:47I've really only ever seen you as a friend.

01:00:53It's because Joshua's done things for you.

01:00:56I've done more.

01:00:57No.

01:00:59I love him, okay?

01:01:00We understand each other.

01:01:02Because you're both born with silver spoons in your mouth and I wasn't.

01:01:06You know it's not that.

01:01:08I just, I have a really strong feeling about him.

01:01:12I'm...

01:01:12Just not for me.

01:01:17Noah, I'm sorry.

01:01:18I didn't mean to lead you on.

01:01:21And it wasn't my intention to hurt you.

01:01:27It's okay.

01:01:30I understand.

01:01:33I just needed to hear it from you.

01:01:36No.

01:01:36Dwayne, double down on the plan.

01:01:43There's no going back now.

01:01:52Noah.

01:01:52What brings you here?

01:01:56I think it's time for your company to reconsider its partnership with Gerber.

01:01:59I'm not sure what you're implying.

01:02:02It's simple.

01:02:03Harbor Medical Devices is the biggest supplier for Gerber Corporation.

01:02:06If you cut ties with Gerber, it'll deal a critical blow to them.

01:02:13So, you're the one behind the scheme.

01:02:18Why would I go along with it?

01:02:20The question is, why wouldn't you?

01:02:23You and I are alike, Susie.

01:02:25How do we love people who don't love us back?

01:02:28I've already let it go.

01:02:30Why let it go when we still have a chance?

01:02:33If me and the Gerber family are out of the company,

01:02:36the Lean family will end a business alliance.

01:02:38Joshua and Mia will get divorced.

01:02:41You and I can finally be with them.

01:02:48Join me.

01:02:48Together, we can make sure we aren't ignoring it anymore.

01:02:55So, Mia,

01:02:56we've heard smart suppliers are terminating contracts.

01:03:00Trust me, we have the situation under control.

01:03:02That's not what I heard.

01:03:03The rumor is Harbor Medical Devices pulling out.

01:03:07How do you explain this?

01:03:09I assure you, we're addressing the concerns,

01:03:11but our relationship with our suppliers has never been stronger.

01:03:14As one of the largest shareholders,

01:03:16I have complete faith in Mia's leadership.

01:03:18These rumors are just that.

01:03:21Rumors.

01:03:27The rumor was right.

01:03:30Harper Medical Devices decided to terminate the contract with us.

01:03:32Well, there's still hope.

01:03:35I've convinced Harper to continue their partnership with us.

01:03:39But only if I become the new CEO.

01:03:41It's time for a change in leadership.

01:03:45Someone who could steer this company in the right direction.

01:03:47So, I've brought Susie Harper with me, the acting CEO of Harper Medical Devices.

01:03:55Susie will tell you all that she would like Mia Gerber to resign.

01:03:58Actually, I think there's been a misunderstanding.

01:04:03Harper Medical Devices never intended to terminate our contracts with Gerber Corporation.

01:04:10Any rumor suggesting otherwise is false.

01:04:12Furthermore, I believe in Mia's leadership and the direction that she's taking this company.

01:04:21Thank you, Susie.

01:04:23I owe you a big one.

01:04:25You don't owe me anything.

01:04:26I just want Joshua, the person he loves, to be happy.

01:04:32Promise me.

01:04:34Never hurt him.

01:04:38And I have evidence that Noah Bellani has been conspiring with former ousted executive Dwayne Kaiser to sabotage the company.

01:04:48Mr. Bellani, your actions have endangered the company and everybody in it.

01:04:53And you're therefore terminated in the view.

01:05:20It's quite the view.

01:05:23I've thought a lot about what happened.

01:05:30And I wanted to say sorry.

01:05:33I should have been clearer.

01:05:35I didn't mean to lead you on.

01:05:39I was lost, Mia.

01:05:41My actions.

01:05:42My obsession.

01:05:45I'm sorry for everything.

01:05:46We both made mistakes.

01:05:53We're just glad we can put it all behind us.

01:05:57You were a good friend, Noah.

01:06:00You were more than a friend of me, Mia.

01:06:03I've learned to let go.

01:06:04I just want you to be happy.

01:06:12I am.

01:06:15I hope you find your happiness, too.

01:06:19Take care, Noah.

01:06:23Me, too.

01:06:24We are gathered here today to witness the reaffirmation of vows between Mia and Joshua Lane.

01:06:48Joshua, our marriage was out of necessity, but you've become my partner, my rock, my best friend.

01:07:01Mia, you've given me the gift of a real family.

01:07:04I will vow to cherish and love you forever.

01:07:06This is just the beginning of our forever.

01:07:09This is just the beginning of our forever.

01:07:36This is just the beginning of our forever.
