00:00:00Henry Vaughn and stop him now. What does he look like?
00:00:12Ten things you need to know about Henry Vaughn's sweethearts, Lila Collins.
00:00:17We'll have leverage to negotiate with Henry Vaughn.
00:00:19I guess I'm his girlfriend.
00:00:21No, marriage wasn't part of the deal.
00:00:23You humiliate this family.
00:00:25You did what?
00:00:26The only way to kill a rumor is to start another one.
00:00:29I never knew my marriage would spiral like this.
00:00:32The second Starlett would be gone, so would you.
00:00:35Lila, you don't know him.
00:00:41I hate him and I hate myself.
00:00:51For just one fleeting moment, I wished it was real.
00:00:54What do you say?
00:00:56Beyoncé?
00:01:00I got this. I belong here.
00:01:23Hey, do you know who she is?
00:01:27No clue. I've never seen her before.
00:01:32How's everything? You got a plan?
00:01:34Anya, I'm in. Now, I'll find Henry Vaughn and stop him.
00:01:37He's not getting his hands on our orphanage, our home.
00:01:44Now, what does he look like?
00:01:47Mr. Vaughn, it's such a pleasure.
00:01:52We go live in 10 minutes.
00:01:53I'll be back shortly.
00:01:58I can't believe we're talking to Henry Vaughn.
00:02:02Oh, my God. His first public appearance.
00:02:05No one has ever seen him before this.
00:02:08Screams, hide lines. We need something big.
00:02:11Yeah, I'll confirm after your interview, okay?
00:02:14All right. Thank you.
00:02:17No sign of Henry Vaughn. Where is he?
00:02:23Vaughn, what's happening?
00:02:24I'll leave you to go. Is she okay?
00:02:26Ah, my hair. It's stuck to your shirt. Can you please help?
00:02:30Hold still.
00:02:32Ow, stop yanking.
00:02:33I'm not yanking. Be patient.
00:02:35Oh, please. Not so rough.
00:02:37Oh, please, just be slow. Come on.
00:02:39I'm not yanking.
00:02:40I'm not yanking.
00:02:41I'm not yanking.
00:02:41I'm not yanking.
00:02:42I'm not yanking.
00:02:42I'm not yanking.
00:02:43I'm not yanking.
00:02:44I'm not yanking.
00:02:44I'm not yanking.
00:02:44I'm not yanking.
00:02:45I'm not yanking.
00:02:46Come on, closer.
00:02:47Uh, hey, you may want to hear this.
00:02:53You're stepping slow. Come on. Be patient.
00:02:55I can't help it. Ow.
00:02:57I'm sorry. Did that hurt?
00:02:59Just take off your shirt.
00:03:00In an elevator, that's not happening.
00:03:02I'm going to go live. No.
00:03:05Just take off your shirt.
00:03:07In an elevator, that's not happening.
00:03:09Oh, I'll just do it.
00:03:12I'm so sorry.
00:03:16Come on, Mr. Bourne.
00:03:17Get this on your camera.
00:03:18Is this some sort of kinky elevator play?
00:03:20Is that how you get off your nerve before the end?
00:03:23How long have you been stuck in your bubble, Mr. Bourne?
00:03:35What happened?
00:03:36Did you even see him?
00:03:37Well, I did, but things got complicated.
00:03:44You're late. Again.
00:03:46I'm sorry, Linda, but I got stuck in a lift with Henry Vaughn.
00:03:49Stop the bullshit.
00:03:51You with Henry Vaughn.
00:03:53Their names don't even belong in the same sentence.
00:03:57I know you're obsessed with the richest bachelor in the city,
00:04:00but you've got to come up with better excuses.
00:04:02But this time it's true.
00:04:03Listen, I know you used to be this hot shot journalist,
00:04:07but that was ages ago.
00:04:08No one even wants to talk to you nowadays.
00:04:11Actually, I'd like to talk to her.
00:04:14David, don't you work for Henry Vaughn?
00:04:17Yes, and my boss would like a word with Miss Collins.
00:04:27Table five.
00:04:28He's waiting for you.
00:04:34Is this table five?
00:04:35Set.
00:04:36Oh, sorry, am I at the wrong table?
00:04:38Don't.
00:04:39Causing a scene.
00:04:40We need to talk discreetly.
00:04:42Got it.
00:04:43CIA style.
00:04:44Huh?
00:04:45You snuck into the banquet.
00:04:47Who were you looking for?
00:04:48What do you want?
00:04:49I... I was just curious.
00:04:52Don't lie to me.
00:04:54Okay, fine.
00:04:56I'm from Starlight Homes,
00:04:57the orphanage that you're planning to demolish.
00:05:00I'm telling you, you're making a huge mistake.
00:05:04Starlight Homes?
00:05:05The broke old orphanage?
00:05:07Yes, but it's our home.
00:05:09And you're tearing it down to build a shopping center?
00:05:12There are other orphanages in the city, better ones.
00:05:15No, but none like ours.
00:05:16Starlight is special.
00:05:17Don't turn.
00:05:20Don't raise your voice.
00:05:22Unless you want this place swarming with reporters in five minutes.
00:05:26Starlight means everything to us.
00:05:29Yes, it may be old, but it is full of love and memories,
00:05:34and it means the world to those kids.
00:05:37Everyone says the same thing.
00:05:39Everywhere.
00:05:40If I gave up, nothing would get built.
00:05:44You have a month to move out.
00:05:46It's a generous offer.
00:05:47I suggest you take it.
00:05:49No, wait.
00:05:53No, wait.
00:05:54I'm telling you the truth.
00:05:56You're making a huge mistake.
00:05:59About the elevator incident,
00:06:02I'll issue a statement soon.
00:06:04Don't say or do anything.
00:06:05It'll blow over.
00:06:10What an asshole.
00:06:23That stupid prick.
00:06:27Oh, boss.
00:06:28I'll get to work right away.
00:06:29Oh, no, Miss Collins.
00:06:30Don't work so hard.
00:06:32You've been non-stop.
00:06:33You deserve a break.
00:06:36Am I getting fired?
00:06:38What? No.
00:06:39You don't need to keep hiding it anymore.
00:06:42You're Henry Vaughn's girlfriend, aren't you?
00:06:44What?
00:06:45See?
00:06:47That's all over the news.
00:06:48Okay, that's a misunderstanding.
00:06:50Oh, come on.
00:06:51This photo, it's clearly you.
00:06:55Yes, it is me.
00:06:57I knew it.
00:06:58Only our Lila could lend someone like Vaughn.
00:07:02Guys, it's her.
00:07:05Hey, maybe it's for the best.
00:07:08How so?
00:07:09We'll have leverage to negotiate with Henry Vaughn.
00:07:11He literally just said no to my face.
00:07:13He's just an arrogant shithead.
00:07:15Okay, then at least we can use it to our advantage
00:07:19and raise money for Starlight.
00:07:21What?
00:07:21Do you really think people will treat us differently?
00:07:23No, there is no way anyone would do that.
00:07:27Oh, I'll handle your assignments.
00:07:29Anything for Mr. Vaughn's girlfriend.
00:07:32I'll get you coffee from now on.
00:07:34You can have half my project bonus.
00:07:36Lila, I'm promoting you to department manager.
00:07:39Effective immediately.
00:07:47I guess I'm his girlfriend.
00:07:51We'll launch an exclusive right away.
00:07:5310 things you need to know about Henry Vaughn's sweetheart,
00:07:57Lila Collins.
00:07:58Wait, right now?
00:08:00No, Linder, hold on, no.
00:08:02I know she's a liar.
00:08:07Get the car ready.
00:08:08I'm going to settle this girlfriend nonsense.
00:08:15If I get the job, will I get to meet Henry Vaughn?
00:08:18Oh my god, oh my god, he's such a dream.
00:08:22Next.
00:08:24Uh, what is this supposed to be?
00:08:28I think I'm way hotter than your boyfriend.
00:08:32Next.
00:08:33Next.
00:08:37Can you introduce yourself?
00:08:39How about you introduce yourself?
00:08:41You know, I don't really dig the whole like,
00:08:44single-sided interview thing.
00:08:46I think it's toxic.
00:08:48Great.
00:08:49Next.
00:08:53Miss Collins, you remember me?
00:08:56Uh, your voice sounds familiar.
00:08:59Yes, I think I've heard it somewhere.
00:09:00Wait, I do know you.
00:09:04I do know you.
00:09:06Yeah.
00:09:06You look just like Robert Pattinson.
00:09:12Should I remind you what happened in the elevator a few days ago?
00:09:15Oh, you're one of those people obsessed with my relationship with Henry Vaughn.
00:09:20Fine, fine, I'll give you what you came here for.
00:09:25Yes, Henry Vaughn.
00:09:27Yes, Henry Vaughn is my boyfriend.
00:09:30In the elevator, he said he loved me.
00:09:32But guess what?
00:09:32I turned him down.
00:09:33He did?
00:09:34Yeah, of course.
00:09:36He begged me to accept his love, saying he'd skip the press conference if I didn't.
00:09:40Wow, really?
00:09:42Absolutely.
00:09:43You know, men, they're such simple creatures.
00:09:46I gave him one kiss, and then he completely lost it.
00:09:48He wanted to sleep with me, and then, well, I said no, of course.
00:09:53It was so hard.
00:09:54Can you imagine?
00:09:57I truly can't.
00:09:58I mean, it's outrageous, really.
00:10:00Oh, by the way, what's your name?
00:10:01I'm Henry.
00:10:02Oh, it doesn't matter.
00:10:03Forget it.
00:10:03You are hired.
00:10:05No, I don't want the job.
00:10:07I don't need...
00:10:12Mrs. Green's condition is getting worse.
00:10:16Yes, I'm on my way.
00:10:17Hey, newbie, you're coming with me.
00:10:23Your son is turning this family into a laughing stock.
00:10:28The deal was clear.
00:10:29Build the biggest shopping mall in the world, and then I'll make him heir.
00:10:32Now look, the project's been delayed, and he's been seen cozying up with the enemy,
00:10:36some activist.
00:10:37It must be some misunderstanding.
00:10:39I'm not a misunderstanding.
00:10:40I'm not a misunderstanding.
00:10:41I'm not a misunderstanding.
00:10:42I'm not a misunderstanding.
00:10:43I'm not a misunderstanding.
00:10:44I'm not a misunderstanding.
00:10:45I'm not a misunderstanding.
00:10:46It must be some misunderstanding.
00:10:48He's never let you down.
00:10:50Fix this, or I'll replace him, and you'll be out after him.
00:10:56Control your son.
00:11:00He's your son, too, you know.
00:11:03And I regret that every day.
00:11:14David?
00:11:16I need to know everything about Lila Collins.
00:11:29Is she okay?
00:11:31She's getting worse.
00:11:32She's not recognized anyone since yesterday.
00:11:38Mrs. Green, how are you feeling?
00:11:43I'm knitting sweaters for my children.
00:11:46Oh.
00:11:47You know, I have an orphanage.
00:11:50That's wonderful.
00:11:53You should see it.
00:11:55It's brand new.
00:11:58Do you know who I am?
00:12:00Mom?
00:12:04It's okay.
00:12:07It's okay.
00:12:10You're not my mom.
00:12:12No.
00:12:14But to me, you're just like a mother.
00:12:18And I'll save our home.
00:12:24Hey, newbie.
00:12:27Thanks for today.
00:12:29Just give me a sec.
00:12:30I'll go solve the payment.
00:12:32So heartbreaking.
00:12:34Did you hear about Starlight Homes?
00:12:40Did you hear about Starlight Homes?
00:12:42Of course.
00:12:43It's getting demolished next month.
00:12:45Poor Lila.
00:12:45What's she going to do?
00:12:46Right?
00:12:47Mrs. Green only shows brief moments of clarity when she visits that place.
00:12:51Once it's gone, she might never remember anything again.
00:12:54Such a shame.
00:12:55She's been taking care of Mrs. Green for 10 years.
00:12:58And just like that, it's all disappearing.
00:13:00And for what?
00:13:01Just another massive shopping mall?
00:13:03Just wiping it out like that?
00:13:13I know.
00:13:21He's so dreamy.
00:13:22I hope he can visit every day.
00:13:31And this one, who's that for?
00:13:33This is for Sherry.
00:13:35She loves lavender.
00:13:38This one.
00:13:39What about this one?
00:13:40Lily.
00:13:41Of course.
00:13:42She just loves yellow.
00:14:06I'll see you next time.
00:14:07And the sweaters will be ready.
00:14:12She's really sweet.
00:14:15Thanks for coming with me today, newbie.
00:14:17I didn't really have a choice.
00:14:19You dragged me here.
00:14:21Well, still, thanks for not leaving.
00:14:29So Mrs. Green's the reason you won't leave Starlight Homes?
00:14:33I mean, you saved up all that money and you still won't move?
00:14:37Well, I haven't saved enough yet.
00:14:39And I haven't figured out what to do with Mrs. Green.
00:14:44The Vaughn Enterprise gave me an ultimatum.
00:14:46I have to be out next month, so I guess that's it.
00:14:51What are you going to do?
00:14:53Whatever it takes.
00:14:54I'll sell everything I can if I have to, no matter what.
00:14:56I am protecting my home and my family.
00:15:00You said you were engaged with Henry Vaughn, right?
00:15:04I mean, he's rich enough to handle this without a second thought.
00:15:08Why didn't you ask him?
00:15:10You know why.
00:15:13It's a lie.
00:15:16You know why.
00:15:18It's a lie.
00:15:19Ready to tell the truth?
00:15:21Yes.
00:15:23The truth is...
00:15:28Henry Vaughn is a stingy bastard.
00:15:31What?
00:15:31He's just one of those rich kids.
00:15:33You know, he's selfish and cold and he's completely indifferent to someone like us.
00:15:39He would never help the orphanage.
00:15:43Are you sure about that?
00:15:45Yes, that's why I turned him down.
00:15:47But he's so obsessed with me, he wouldn't let me go.
00:15:52Wow.
00:15:54If it wasn't for him, I wouldn't have to sell this necklace.
00:16:00Mrs. Green gave it to me on my 18th birthday.
00:16:03It means a lot to you?
00:16:05Yes.
00:16:08But then so does Mrs. Green and Starlight Holmes.
00:16:14They were all I had growing up.
00:16:16I'll do anything I can to protect them.
00:16:20But that bastard Henry Vaughn, even a prey, I don't catch him.
00:16:32Oh no, Mr. Vaughn!
00:16:36Wait, did someone just say Mr. Vaughn?
00:16:52Wait, did somebody just say Mr. Vaughn?
00:16:57Careful.
00:17:02Hey.
00:17:12Newbie, what are you doing?
00:17:14I was just about to ask you the same thing.
00:17:20You're so glued to your phone.
00:17:22You should be more careful.
00:17:24So you were protecting me?
00:17:28Let's just say I didn't want my boss getting hurt on my first day.
00:17:32Oh, I knew it.
00:17:34You are the most responsible, detail-oriented assistant ever.
00:17:39Stick with me.
00:17:40Make sure you get promoted.
00:17:43Wait.
00:17:45From now on, whatever I have, I'll share it with you.
00:17:51I don't like chocolate.
00:17:53Nonsense.
00:17:54Everybody likes chocolate.
00:18:02Lila Collins, we've met before.
00:18:18Lila Collins, we've met before.
00:18:27Not to be nosy, but you're really bad at this.
00:18:34It's none of your business.
00:18:36Who even are you?
00:18:38Same as everybody else here.
00:18:39I'm an orphan.
00:18:41They take kids your age?
00:18:42No, I've been here since I was two, but guess I was never good enough to get adopted.
00:18:48Oh, sorry.
00:18:49No, don't be.
00:18:51This place is my home.
00:18:52I wouldn't trade it for anything.
00:18:54Oh, what about you?
00:18:55Why are you here?
00:18:56There's an event.
00:19:00Oh, you're with the Vaughn family.
00:19:04Volunteering, giving back to the community, right?
00:19:09Why'd you say it like that?
00:19:10You know why rich people don't do charity unless PR and cameras are involved.
00:19:17But you seem different.
00:19:22A little clumsier, a bit less polished.
00:19:25You're not one of them, are you?
00:19:27Do I not look like one?
00:19:29No, you seem, I don't know, a little more human.
00:19:37Here, give me your hand.
00:19:40Come on.
00:19:43This is for you.
00:19:46I don't like chocolate.
00:19:48Nonsense, everybody likes chocolate.
00:19:55Hmm.
00:20:06You have let your father down.
00:20:09Let me guess, you're here about the rumor?
00:20:12You mean the scandal?
00:20:13Your father is furious.
00:20:15He's already talking about replacing you.
00:20:17Shocking, he's only been threatening that for the past 25 years.
00:20:20Henry, I didn't claw my way up the social ladder just to be thrown out of the Vaughn family.
00:20:26You've made that clear for the past 25 years as well.
00:20:29This isn't a joke.
00:20:30Don't you forget how they treat us like trash?
00:20:33Just because I was his nurse when I gave birth to you.
00:20:38It's a misunderstanding.
00:20:43It doesn't concern you.
00:20:45Good, then fix it.
00:20:48Get rid of her and Starlight Homes.
00:20:51The deal was clear.
00:20:53Build the biggest shopping mall in the world and you'll be heir.
00:20:58We've been outcasts for too long, Henry.
00:21:01But you are his son.
00:21:04Prove it.
00:21:19You're late, I need to talk to you.
00:21:21Wait, I have to tell you something first.
00:21:23Mr. Rivers is coming.
00:21:24He is a huge client and he's having a meeting with me here.
00:21:28Victor Rivers?
00:21:30Since when is he important?
00:21:32He's agreed to read my project proposal.
00:21:34Listen, I'm not playing this assistant game with you.
00:21:36Oh, okay, I get it.
00:21:37I know this job isn't ideal, but please just let me know.
00:21:40I'm not going to be a burden to you.
00:21:42I'm not going to be a burden to you.
00:21:43I'm not going to be a burden to you.
00:21:44I'm not going to be a burden to you.
00:21:45I'm not going to be a burden to you.
00:21:46I'm not going to be a burden to you.
00:21:47Please just help me land this deal.
00:21:50Look, I can save Starlight Homes.
00:21:53But if I get this money, I can help Mrs. Green move everybody out.
00:21:56And you saw her.
00:21:58You know how much she needs this money.
00:22:00Please just help me land this deal.
00:22:06I have one condition.
00:22:08Condition?
00:22:10If you get the money, you leave Starlight Homes.
00:22:18Take the money.
00:22:19Forget about the orphanage.
00:22:20Just go somewhere else and start over.
00:22:23Why do you care?
00:22:26Lila Collins.
00:22:28Oh, Mr. Rivers.
00:22:30It is a pleasure to meet you.
00:22:33It's a pleasure.
00:22:44This is my assistant.
00:22:46I'm not your assistant.
00:22:47Sorry.
00:22:48He's a new hire.
00:22:50Has anyone ever told you you look like someone?
00:22:55Oh yes, Vaughn.
00:23:01Oh yes, it's Vaughn.
00:23:02Henry Vaughn.
00:23:03Robert Pattinson.
00:23:06Lila said I look like him, but I think I'm better looking.
00:23:11Sorry, he's just joking.
00:23:13Please take a seat.
00:23:18This is my project proposal.
00:23:23Please feel free to ask any questions.
00:23:28As your, um, Ms. Collins, Henry Vaughn's girlfriend,
00:23:32I'll be straightforward.
00:23:34I was thinking of gifting him a Chopard watch.
00:23:38What do you think?
00:23:40Uh, a what watch?
00:23:43Sorry.
00:23:44Surely you've heard of a Chopard watch?
00:23:46No, I, I guess watches are just a bit impractical.
00:23:52I just tend to use this.
00:23:57You are quite funny.
00:23:59I never imagined Vaughn would go for someone from your background.
00:24:05What do you two even talk about?
00:24:08Oh, you know, just life.
00:24:11Life?
00:24:12You call your cheap clothes and secondhand shoes life?
00:24:16You're from completely different worlds.
00:24:19Of course, maybe Vaughn finds your humor or your ignorance entertaining.
00:24:24Yeah, lucky me.
00:24:27But your private affairs with Vaughn are none of my concern.
00:24:30And as for your business proposal, I shan't be taking it forward.
00:24:34We only ever do business with people with class.
00:24:38Mr. Rivers, you haven't even looked at it yet.
00:24:40Please, please just give me a chance.
00:24:42Is this how you won over Henry Vaughn?
00:24:44By being desperate and clingy?
00:24:46But it won't work with me, Miss Collins.
00:24:48Don't come near me again.
00:24:50I'm allergic to poverty.
00:24:51No, please, you haven't even read it.
00:24:53Please just look at it.
00:24:58Mr. Rivers!
00:25:00I'm warning you, Miss Collins.
00:25:01Don't play these little games with me.
00:25:03What games?
00:25:04I, I'm just asking for a chance.
00:25:06You've proved you don't belong in this circle.
00:25:09And I'm not interested in your proposal.
00:25:11What, all this humiliation just because I don't know the brand of a luxury watch?
00:25:15Let me explain it so that you'll understand.
00:25:18Simple examples for someone like you.
00:25:21Think of it this way.
00:25:22You need a ticket to board a train to enter the theater.
00:25:26And for certain business opportunities, you need a ticket too.
00:25:31A ticket?
00:25:32Exactly.
00:25:33Watches, cars, wines, houses, luxury.
00:25:37These are the tickets of the elite.
00:25:40Do you understand now?
00:25:42What, so I don't even qualify to sit and discuss business with you?
00:25:46Well, you might think dating Henry Vaughn means that you have stepped into this circle.
00:25:50But believe me, you haven't.
00:25:52And honestly, I think he will tire of you soon enough.
00:25:56I'm quite sure.
00:25:57Mr. Rivers, you don't know anything about me.
00:25:59Oh, come on.
00:26:00I know enough.
00:26:01And if you ever want to talk business opportunities, maybe clean up your appearance first.
00:26:06Showing up in old polyester is most impolite.
00:26:10Leaving so soon, Mr. Rivers?
00:26:15We haven't finished our conversation yet.
00:26:18No, I'm done.
00:26:19Step aside.
00:26:20No, sit back down.
00:26:25I'm just getting started.
00:26:30What are you trying to do?
00:26:32Assistant, I'm warning you.
00:26:34Or what?
00:26:35You'll take away my ticket to charge me admission?
00:26:38Stay out of this.
00:26:39Apologize to her.
00:26:40What?
00:26:41The things you've said were beyond rude.
00:26:43Offer her an apology now.
00:26:45Why would I do that?
00:26:47No.
00:26:48Victor Rivers, as you cling onto your crumbling family empire,
00:26:53you have no right to criticize a hardworking, self-made businesswoman.
00:26:58Oh, do shut up.
00:26:59I'll sue you for slander.
00:27:01Go ahead.
00:27:02Sue.
00:27:03I'm sure the judge would love to hear what you've said today.
00:27:07I'm calling my lawyer right now.
00:27:09You're finished.
00:27:10Lawyers can be tough.
00:27:11You really should apologize to him.
00:27:15The show power of 201, how much is that?
00:27:1925 million nowadays?
00:27:21How generous, Mr. Rivers.
00:27:24So?
00:27:25That's exactly my point.
00:27:26The price of nobility.
00:27:28And how much do you owe the bank?
00:27:33More than a few of those watches, right?
00:27:37Good, I understand what you're talking about.
00:27:40What are you doing?
00:27:41A year ago, Henry Vaughn discovered corruption in your company
00:27:45and terminated all deals with you,
00:27:47leading to significant financial problems for your group.
00:27:53But yet, you need the banks to still believe that you're thriving,
00:27:55so you got super creative with the numbers,
00:27:57practically lying to them, correct?
00:28:00Yes, it's nonsense.
00:28:02It's nonsense.
00:28:03The funny thing is, though,
00:28:05that it was corruption that led to the breakdown with Henry Vaughn, wasn't it?
00:28:11But now you think a 201 is just going to buy that all back?
00:28:14I mean, it's more like a one-way ticket to jail.
00:28:19I shall sue you.
00:28:21It's all a lie.
00:28:22Fine, call it a lie.
00:28:24We'll verify that in court.
00:28:26Hey, call your lawyer.
00:28:29Friendly advice?
00:28:31Your half-assed lawyer won't be Barnes.
00:28:34I won't let this go.
00:28:36Your careers are over.
00:28:39I will end you.
00:28:40I doubt it.
00:28:42But please try.
00:28:44Keep me entertained.
00:28:51How would you know all of that?
00:28:54Who are you?
00:28:59Who are you?
00:29:01Listen, Myla, I'm actually...
00:29:04No, it doesn't matter anymore.
00:29:07We lost the deal.
00:29:09That's what matters.
00:29:11The deal?
00:29:13Victor wasn't here for your project.
00:29:15He was using you to get to Henry Vaughn.
00:29:17I know, but if there's even a sliver of a chance, I'll take it.
00:29:22You'd let him humiliate you like that?
00:29:25Look, you sound like you're from a good family.
00:29:28So here's the truth.
00:29:29The world isn't a fairy tale.
00:29:31Yeah, he'll mock me, so what?
00:29:34If it helps the people I care about, then I will swallow it.
00:29:39Money isn't worth this.
00:29:42It is when it protects the people that matter.
00:29:46I'm going to beg Victor you can go home.
00:29:47You're still chasing him, even after what he said?
00:29:50Yes, but you can go home.
00:29:53Don't worry, I'll make sure Linda pays you.
00:29:59And thank you for standing up for me today.
00:30:03It was very nice of you.
00:30:06It's just not what I need at the moment.
00:30:13Leave it.
00:30:15It's none of your business.
00:30:19Damn it.
00:30:23David, get Spark Up magazine a sponsorship.
00:30:25Spark Up.
00:30:26Doesn't Lila Collins work there?
00:30:29Just give them the money and credit her.
00:30:32Get it done.
00:30:39This is a mess.
00:30:42But I can't watch her drown.
00:30:47Hey, you okay?
00:30:52Where's your heart assistant?
00:30:56Not the right one.
00:30:58Two days ago, you said he was the best assistant ever.
00:31:03And hello, he's a walking thirst trap.
00:31:09If you fired him, can I date him?
00:31:10No.
00:31:12I mean, stop joking.
00:31:14He's gone.
00:31:17Lila?
00:31:19What did you do?
00:31:21Linda, whatever it is, I promise I'll fix it.
00:31:23Fix it?
00:31:24You're a genius.
00:31:26How did you land such a big sponsor?
00:31:28Victor Rivers agreed to the project.
00:31:30Oh, forget Rivers.
00:31:32Vaughn's funding us.
00:31:34You really have Henry Vaughn wrapped around your little finger.
00:31:38Henry Vaughn?
00:31:41Sponsored us?
00:31:43They said they loved your project proposal.
00:31:45They read my project proposal?
00:31:48Yes.
00:31:48Lila, you're getting a raise.
00:31:50You and your assistant, whatever you two did,
00:31:52keep doing it.
00:31:56My assistant?
00:32:00Could it be Henry?
00:32:06Hey, where are you going?
00:32:17This is the address HR gave me.
00:32:21This can't be right.
00:32:23This is where he lives?
00:32:31Your father is losing patience.
00:32:34What's the delay with them all?
00:32:36Starlight Homes is already moving out.
00:32:38Just throw them out.
00:32:39The clock is ticking.
00:32:41There are still children in there.
00:32:44You want me to toss them out onto the street?
00:32:46Like we were tossed aside?
00:32:48Do you have any idea how serious this is?
00:32:51Without your father's support, we will lose everything.
00:32:55The project will finish on time.
00:32:58It's too late.
00:33:00Your little charity case with that girl is all over the news.
00:33:04I can't clean up your mess anymore.
00:33:06What are you talking about?
00:33:09I've spoken to the Browns.
00:33:12Helen's returning soon.
00:33:14You'll marry her.
00:33:16No.
00:33:17No, marriage wasn't part of the deal.
00:33:18Wake up, Henry.
00:33:20As the heir to Vaughn Enterprise, your marriage isn't a choice.
00:33:25It's a transaction.
00:33:28And it better be a good one.
00:33:34A contract marriage?
00:33:36It benefits no one?
00:33:37You're really willing to ruin two people without a second thought?
00:33:41Helen has agreed to this, Henry.
00:33:43That you better accept your fate.
00:33:45It's not up for discussion.
00:33:46And it's worth it?
00:33:48Just to keep your place in this family?
00:33:50I have scheduled an exclusive interview.
00:33:53In 30 minutes, you will be on live broadcast clarifying the scandal
00:33:58and announcing your engagement to Helen.
00:34:01You're in a real hurry, aren't you?
00:34:05With or without you, the announcement will take place.
00:34:08Now, if you show up, it's just an engagement.
00:34:11If you don't, I'll take actions against Starlight Holmes and Lila Collins.
00:34:17Is this a threat?
00:34:18Do you think I care about Lila Collins?
00:34:23I knew what happened with Victor Rivers, Henry.
00:34:27You're just not yourself when you were with her.
00:34:31If you can't clean up your mess, I will.
00:34:38Like always.
00:35:18Where are you?
00:35:36Hey!
00:35:36Hey, stop!
00:35:48Whoa, that was close.
00:35:55Did she even realize how dangerous that was?
00:35:57Hi, is there a Henry here?
00:36:02I really need to find my assistant.
00:36:05Does he live here or work here?
00:36:12What's going on?
00:36:14Do you know him or not?
00:36:15Did I get the wrong place?
00:36:17Hello, I know there is someone in there.
00:36:19Please, just open up.
00:36:21Please, I really need to...
00:36:34Henry?
00:36:39Henry?
00:36:43You're really here.
00:36:44What are you doing here?
00:36:46I got your address from HR, but...
00:36:48Wait, that's not important.
00:36:49Did you submit my proposal to Vaughn Enterprise?
00:36:54It was you!
00:36:55How do you know Vaughn Enterprise?
00:36:58So that's why you came?
00:37:00To investigate your sponsorship?
00:37:02Yes, I...
00:37:03Either way, we have nothing to do with each other anymore.
00:37:06You fired me, remember?
00:37:09I love you.
00:37:11I've got things to do.
00:37:13Let's not drag this out.
00:37:16I came to say thank you.
00:37:19I was out of line last time, I know that.
00:37:22But you stood up for me against Victor Rivers and...
00:37:25Look, I wanted to shut him down too, but...
00:37:30I've gotten so used to just...
00:37:33Handling things on my own and swallowing my pride.
00:37:38But then you showed up.
00:37:42I don't know how to say this, but...
00:37:49Also, I hate owing people and...
00:37:52And this will be nothing compared to what you did for me, but...
00:37:54I would like to buy you dinner.
00:37:59As a proper thank you.
00:38:02So what do you say?
00:38:04Dinner?
00:38:11Lila Collins.
00:38:13You may be my greatest mistake.
00:38:21Okay, I did say I'd treat you, but...
00:38:25One meal here might cost me more than my entire paycheck.
00:38:30You said I could pick the place.
00:38:31I did, but...
00:38:38Aren't you gonna answer that?
00:38:43It doesn't matter.
00:38:46I've already made my decision.
00:38:48I don't know why, but you seem different.
00:38:52Like there is a side to you I don't know.
00:38:54Breaking news.
00:38:55Laura Vaughn has just announced the engagement of Henry Vaughn and Helen Brown.
00:38:59Heirs to two of the nation's largest enterprises.
00:39:02Mrs. Vaughn, your son was just involved in a scandal.
00:39:04How was he suddenly engaged?
00:39:06And how about his rumored girlfriend, Lila Collins?
00:39:08Is this a cover-up?
00:39:09I'll answer all your questions.
00:39:11First, regarding Miss Lila Collins.
00:39:15She has no romantic ties to my son.
00:39:18In fact, she is nothing but a liar.
00:39:21Clinging to Henry in a desperate attempt for attention.
00:39:25I am formally announcing Miss Lila Collins and Starlight Homes will be facing legal action.
00:39:31You were never actually engaged to Henry Vaughn, were you?
00:39:44No, I admit it.
00:39:47But it was just a misunderstanding at first.
00:39:49I never meant for it to spiral like this.
00:39:53I needed a way to save Starlight Homes and...
00:39:55And then one thing led to another and...
00:39:59Well, things got out of control.
00:40:02Laura Vaughn is suing you.
00:40:04She's labeled you as a liar.
00:40:07And soon the entire public will believe it.
00:40:11And if they think you could lie about an engagement...
00:40:15They'd believe you'd lie about anything.
00:40:18Including Starlight Homes.
00:40:20But that's the truth.
00:40:21It's not a lie.
00:40:22Doesn't matter.
00:40:23People believe what they want to believe.
00:40:26Why are you telling me this?
00:40:28Because I'm offering you an alternative.
00:40:30What kind of alternative?
00:40:34A real engagement.
00:40:37We turn the lie into the truth.
00:40:39What?
00:40:43How did they get here so fast?
00:40:45Because I invited them.
00:40:47You did what?
00:40:48The only way to kill a rumor is to start another one.
00:40:54What exactly are you planning?
00:40:56Did you really think an ordinary assistant would live in that house?
00:41:01No luxury brands by heart?
00:41:05And an inside knowledge of every industry?
00:41:09What are you saying?
00:41:12I told you.
00:41:13I wasn't there for an interview.
00:41:16I was there for you.
00:41:20To meet someone who claimed to be...
00:41:25My fiancé.
00:41:27You're saying...
00:41:29That you are...
00:41:31Mr. Vaughn!
00:41:32Mr. Vaughn!
00:41:34What's your statement on your mother's press conference?
00:41:36Is the engagement real?
00:41:38Why are you dining with Lila Collins right now?
00:41:40Who exactly is your fiancé?
00:41:43He is...
00:41:45Henry Vaughn.
00:41:51Mr. Vaughn, what is the statement on your mother?
00:41:53Is the engagement real?
00:41:54Why are you dining with her?
00:41:55Please, everyone.
00:41:56You're disturbing me and my guests.
00:41:58I'll issue a statement soon, but for now, give us a moment.
00:42:01Mr. Vaughn, we need to know who Mr. Vaughn is.
00:42:03And how long have you been together?
00:42:05Are we expecting children?
00:42:06Mr. Vaughn!
00:42:07How many kids do you have?
00:42:08Mr. Vaughn!
00:42:09Mr. Vaughn, come on!
00:42:10Give us an answer!
00:42:16What exactly do you want?
00:42:18I want to make a deal.
00:42:20I'll give you enough money to relocate Starlight Homes.
00:42:24In exchange, we stay engaged.
00:42:28Breaking off my marriage with Helen Brown.
00:42:30You think money is what I want?
00:42:32I want Starlight Homes.
00:42:34I want them to stop tearing down our home.
00:42:36I know your priority is Mrs. Green's care, right?
00:42:41I can make sure she gets the best treatment, best resources.
00:42:47I'll give you enough to rebuild Starlight Homes
00:42:51Starlight Homes.
00:42:52Somewhere else, exactly as it is now.
00:42:55But you have to move.
00:42:58And this fake engagement?
00:43:00It's the only way to escape the wedding trap my mother has set.
00:43:05When this is all over, we can break off the engagement.
00:43:09You'll be free with your money.
00:43:12And you could open an orphanage anywhere in the world, for all I care.
00:43:16So that's why you called the press here?
00:43:18To force me into agreeing?
00:43:20I never had a real choice, did I?
00:43:24I don't think you have a choice.
00:43:27Lila, this is the only option.
00:43:32The great Henry Vaughn pretends to be my assistant.
00:43:36And plays me and entertains me like some rich kid's game.
00:43:42What an honor.
00:43:46What do you say?
00:43:51Beyoncé?
00:43:56Mr. Vaughn, Mr. Vaughn.
00:43:57Are you going to make a statement tonight?
00:43:59Is Helen Braun the third wheel in all of this?
00:44:01Or is Lila Collins the one who's interfering?
00:44:03I understand this has been shocking for everyone, Lila and I included.
00:44:09But what I can say is that I admire Lila Collins immensely.
00:44:16Her personality, her strength.
00:44:20There's something about her I've never seen in anyone before.
00:44:25As for the press conference today, I had no prior knowledge of it.
00:44:30I want to extend my apologies to Miss Helen Braun.
00:44:33However, there is no romantic relationship between us.
00:44:37We are not engaged.
00:44:38So you are engaged to Lila?
00:44:40Of course.
00:44:42All the rumors you've heard about us, it's true.
00:44:47Tonight's date speaks for itself.
00:44:50Right, Lila?
00:44:54Yes.
00:44:56Yes, that's right.
00:44:58Congratulations.
00:44:59This is incredible.
00:45:00Congrats.
00:45:03And of course, special thanks to the woman by my side.
00:45:08I hate him.
00:45:10And I hate myself.
00:45:12Because for just one fleeting moment,
00:45:17I wished it was real.
00:45:29Evening to you too, Father.
00:45:31Don't call yourself my son and then humiliate this family.
00:45:36I told you to handle the mall project.
00:45:39Shut down the mall project.
00:45:41Shut down Starlight Homes.
00:45:43And instead, you're seen with an activist.
00:45:45Henry must have been blackmailed.
00:45:47And you, a press conference turned into a joke.
00:45:50My interns could handle PR better than you.
00:45:55I've reached an agreement with Lila Collins.
00:45:57She'll move Starlight Homes within the week.
00:46:00The mall project won't be on schedule.
00:46:02It'll be a month ahead of time.
00:46:04And why would she move?
00:46:07Oh, what have you promised her?
00:46:09Don't tell me you've agreed to marry her.
00:46:12We went through hell negotiating the Brown family alliance.
00:46:16That marriage won't stop the rumors.
00:46:18It'll make them worse.
00:46:20Times have changed.
00:46:21People don't blindly believe tabloid scandal anymore.
00:46:24Sooner or later, someone's going to find out that we use
00:46:27power and intimidation to force Starlight Homes out.
00:46:30And when that happens, who's going to clear our name?
00:46:32The Browns?
00:46:34They never wanted this mess in the first place.
00:46:37This is the only way forward.
00:46:39I promise you, this mall, I'll see it done.
00:46:50This is your last chance.
00:46:53Once it's done, get rid of the girl.
00:47:02Don't make me regret this.
00:47:09You might be able to fool your father,
00:47:13but I know my son.
00:47:16It was to protect the girl, wasn't it?
00:47:23I don't know what you're talking about.
00:47:26What did she do to you, Henry?
00:47:29Do you know how long we fought to get here?
00:47:31You fought.
00:47:35Have you ever stopped to think that I never wanted to marry you?
00:47:39I never wanted any of this in the first place.
00:47:42The wealth, the power.
00:47:43Sure, you gave me all of that, but at what cost?
00:47:47Pretending to be something that we're not?
00:47:50How is that any different from the people who resented us?
00:47:54You sound like those useless brats,
00:47:57chasing after some fantasy called freedom.
00:48:01Tell me, without money, without status, what do you have?
00:48:06Nothing.
00:48:08And when that day comes, the girl will be gone too.
00:48:36You again.
00:48:39You're that guy that came with the Vaughns.
00:48:41Their servant, right?
00:48:43You never said I was a servant.
00:48:45Whatever.
00:48:46At least you're not that prick.
00:48:48Prick?
00:48:49Yeah.
00:48:50Henry Vaughn.
00:48:52Total nightmare.
00:48:57You've met him?
00:48:59No, not exactly, but I've seen him from a distance,
00:49:02surrounded by people acting all important, like he's royalty or something.
00:49:07You hate him for that?
00:49:10No.
00:49:10I hate him because every time he comes here, we have to spend days preparing.
00:49:15Mrs. Green is old and her health isn't great.
00:49:18But every time the Vaughns decide to use us as this little PR stunt,
00:49:23she has to get up, pose for photos and look presentable.
00:49:27We scrub the halls, we rehearse fake answers for reporters,
00:49:31and we have to hide all our old toys.
00:49:35God forbid the Vaughns see how we really live.
00:49:39They don't care about us.
00:49:42All they care about is looking good.
00:49:47I see.
00:49:49So yeah.
00:49:52I hope he stops coming.
00:49:54I hope I never see him again.
00:49:57See Henry Vaughn here again.
00:50:01But at least I met you.
00:50:03What's your name, anyway?
00:50:05I have to go.
00:50:07What? Why?
00:50:08Will I see you again?
00:50:13No.
00:50:16You won't.
00:50:23We met again, after all.
00:50:27Yeah.
00:50:39Stick close and breathe.
00:50:41Easy for you to say.
00:50:43Trust me, it wasn't easy at first.
00:50:49This is your first public appearance together.
00:50:50It's tonight's date.
00:50:51Lila, how does it feel dating the city's most eligible bachelor?
00:50:55Breathe.
00:50:56I think I want everything else.
00:50:58You're staring.
00:50:59Why are they staring?
00:51:00Is something wrong with my dress?
00:51:01You're my fiancée.
00:51:03No one will question it.
00:51:07Beware, Mr. Vaughn.
00:51:07This is me and the family.
00:51:08Lila!
00:51:15Beware, Mr. Vaughn.
00:51:16This is me and the family.
00:51:17Lila!
00:51:26Have we met before?
00:51:29Why do you ask?
00:51:30You seem familiar.
00:51:33You have been to Starlight Homes before.
00:51:36We must have met there.
00:51:38No.
00:51:39Trust me, if I'd met someone this loud before, I probably would have remembered.
00:51:44Excuse me?
00:51:45If I'd met you before, I would have remembered, too.
00:51:48Prick.
00:51:49Excuse me?
00:51:50If I'd met you before, I would have remembered, too.
00:51:53Prick.
00:51:56Why are you laughing?
00:52:14Well, if it isn't my former fiancée and his charity case.
00:52:19She's my guest tonight, Heddle.
00:52:23I'm joking.
00:52:26What, no warm welcome?
00:52:28We haven't seen each other for five years.
00:52:30We were never that close.
00:52:33Ouch.
00:52:34You've gotten meaner.
00:52:38Do you remember high school?
00:52:41Everyone used to call you the bastard's son.
00:52:44I was the only one shutting them up.
00:52:45Thanks for reminding me.
00:52:46Don't get me wrong.
00:52:47I mean, your background's messy.
00:52:49But men like your father, they do have plenty of affairs.
00:52:54Your mother being a nurse is not exactly shocking.
00:53:03Oh, you didn't know.
00:53:05Henry wasn't even raised in the Vaughn Mansion at first.
00:53:08There was a time that he was kicked out.
00:53:10That's enough, Helen.
00:53:15Why are you here?
00:53:17I'm just curious.
00:53:19I wanted to see what's really going on between you two lovebirds.
00:53:22And?
00:53:23What do you see?
00:53:24Exactly what I assumed.
00:53:28A fake engagement.
00:53:33You've had too much to drink, Helen.
00:53:36Honey, I haven't even started.
00:53:39But if you two want to continue the little pretend game, I'm happy to play along.
00:53:44We need to talk.
00:53:49So?
00:54:06You just left me standing there?
00:54:07What am I, a damn prop?
00:54:10She...
00:54:12She practically gouged herself down.
00:54:14Oh, did I hurt your feelings?
00:54:18I'm just leaving.
00:54:19Wait!
00:54:22I like you, so I'm going to give you a little friendly warning.
00:54:26Stay away from Henry.
00:54:28He's mine.
00:54:32He's mine.
00:54:33Maybe you should tell him that.
00:54:34He's the one who called off your engagement.
00:54:37He said he was feeling trapped.
00:54:39Can you imagine?
00:54:40Someone like us being trapped?
00:54:42Can you imagine someone like us feeling something like that?
00:54:46God thinks he's living in a Shakespearean tragedy.
00:54:48What exactly are you trying to say?
00:54:51That we understand each other.
00:54:55When Henry struggled to fit in, I was the one who helped him.
00:54:58I was the one who brought him into our circle.
00:55:02Without me, he would be no more than an illegitimate shadow.
00:55:05Are you saying he needs you?
00:55:07No.
00:55:08I'm saying I made him.
00:55:09And now, just because of you, he's ready to throw it all away.
00:55:13That's not happening.
00:55:15Let me fill you in.
00:55:16Henry promised his father that the second Starlight Home would be gone.
00:55:21So would you.
00:55:22I don't care.
00:55:23Really?
00:55:26Why don't you hear for yourself?
00:55:35We used power and intimidation to force Starlight Homes out.
00:55:39This is the only way forward.
00:55:41I promise you.
00:55:42This mall, I'll see it done.
00:55:52You take the bedroom, I'll take the couch.
00:55:55Do we really need to live together?
00:55:57Why did you rent an apartment just for this?
00:56:00This may be a fake engagement, but it needs to be convincing.
00:56:06I want a place just for us.
00:56:07No uninvited guests.
00:56:10Right.
00:56:11You wouldn't want someone like me stepping foot in the Vaughn Mansion.
00:56:15That's not what I meant.
00:56:16Lila.
00:56:18Why do you always assume the worst?
00:56:23Get some rest.
00:56:31Why do rich people always put things so high?
00:56:34Try not to break it.
00:56:37It's expensive.
00:56:40I suppose that shelf would be a challenge for a short-legged corgi.
00:56:44I'm not.
00:56:46I'm not a corgi.
00:56:51Henry.
00:56:53Can I ask you something?
00:56:56And can you promise me you won't lie to me?
00:57:04Can you promise me you won't lie to me?
00:57:06Depends on what you ask.
00:57:10Right.
00:57:12Of course.
00:57:14You made this engagement deal for Starlight Homes, right?
00:57:20A so-called win-win.
00:57:24Was it all just a new PR strategy for Vaughn Enterprise?
00:57:28Answer me.
00:57:30I already told you.
00:57:33You get what you want and I get what I want.
00:57:36But what do you want, Henry?
00:57:38I don't get you.
00:57:40You could have thrown me out, but you didn't.
00:57:42You met Mrs. Green.
00:57:44You knew exactly what would break me, but you never, ever used it.
00:57:51I don't get you, Henry.
00:57:54I don't get you.
00:57:54You never, ever used it.
00:57:58You could have labeled me a liar.
00:58:01To paint me as the one who came in between you and Helen.
00:58:06But you didn't.
00:58:08Why?
00:58:10Was it all just a way to make sure I willingly move Starlight Homes to fake an engagement?
00:58:18Was it worth it?
00:58:21Henry Vaughn.
00:58:22Why are you helping me?
00:58:28I made my terms clear.
00:58:31You need to move Starlight Homes within a week.
00:58:33No, that's not an answer.
00:58:40All my life, I've been pretending to be someone I'm not.
00:58:46My mother went through hell because of where she came from.
00:58:51She always said she didn't want me to suffer like she did, so I did what was expected.
00:58:58I pushed.
00:59:00I fought.
00:59:02I became the perfect heir.
00:59:07The one who deserved to lead the Vaughn family.
00:59:11I'm sorry.
00:59:12The one who deserved to lead the Vaughn family.
00:59:19But I'm not them.
00:59:22I never was.
00:59:24I know that.
00:59:28Everything you said.
00:59:31Using Mrs. Green to threaten you.
00:59:34Forcing you all out without warning.
00:59:36I did consider it.
00:59:38I'm not a saint.
00:59:39The thought crossed my mind more than once.
00:59:43But you didn't.
00:59:47Look, I don't want to talk about us like this.
00:59:49Not while everything's still a mess.
00:59:53But what I said about you.
00:59:57That I admire your resilience.
01:00:01That you got to me.
01:00:05None of that was a lie.
01:00:09I... I think...
01:00:39Henry Vaughn, don't betray my trust.
01:01:09It's just a call, my fiancé.
01:01:26It's not too much.
01:01:28Right?
01:01:29Okay.
01:01:38Lila?
01:01:39Oh, you picked up.
01:01:41Uh, I figured you left early this morning.
01:01:46So I was just checking if everything's okay.
01:01:51Yeah.
01:01:52Oh, okay.
01:01:53Well, I'm just about to head out, so I...
01:01:55Lila, I'm really sorry, but can we talk later?
01:02:00Yeah.
01:02:01Sure.
01:02:02Don't overthink it.
01:02:03My mother, she's in the hospital.
01:02:05What?
01:02:07What happened?
01:02:08Are you okay?
01:02:09I'm fine.
01:02:11Don't worry.
01:02:12I'll call you back soon, okay?
01:02:14Okay.
01:02:19What the hell happened?
01:02:30Lila, Mrs. Green is missing.
01:02:36What happened?
01:02:37Yesterday, someone came claiming that Starlight Homes was moving
01:02:40and that they wanted to take her on one last visit.
01:02:42We refused.
01:02:43But then last night, she was taken from a ward.
01:02:46How can that happen?
01:02:47I'm so sorry, Lila.
01:02:50All the security footage was erased.
01:02:53Who would want to discharge her early?
01:02:55He said he was here on behalf of your fiancé.
01:02:58Henry Vaughn.
01:03:00Miss Collins, a word, please.
01:03:03We need to talk.
01:03:06Do you work for Henry or Vaughn Enterprise?
01:03:08Does it matter?
01:03:10They're the same.
01:03:10Not to me.
01:03:11I see what he meant.
01:03:13You're special.
01:03:15But special is never what this family needs.
01:03:17What do you want from me?
01:03:19Easy.
01:03:20Walk away now, and we'll make sure Mrs. Green gets the care that she needs.
01:03:27If you had this much power, you could make me disappear without a second thought.
01:03:31Why bother making me a deal?
01:03:34Consider Henry's last kindness to you.
01:03:37This isn't Henry's idea.
01:03:39You can't fool me.
01:03:41Isn't it, though?
01:03:43Lila, you don't know him.
01:03:45No, I know enough.
01:03:47Then ask him.
01:03:49Go.
01:03:50Find him.
01:03:51Confront him.
01:03:53Right now, you don't see it.
01:03:56But he's a part of this family.
01:03:58He's a Vaughn.
01:04:00And there's nothing that you can do about it.
01:04:09This is Henry Vaughn.
01:04:11Leave a message, and I'll get back to you.
01:04:14It's fine.
01:04:16He's just busy.
01:04:23Henry.
01:04:26Henry.
01:04:35The number you have dialed is busy now.
01:04:37No.
01:04:40No.
01:04:42Henry Vaughn.
01:04:44Was this all a game to you?
01:04:47Yes, Doctor.
01:04:48I want the transfer arranged as soon as possible.
01:04:51That's great.
01:04:52I'll coordinate with her guardian.
01:04:54Sir, Mrs. Green has gone missing.
01:04:57What?
01:04:58Someone has taken her from the hospital.
01:05:00Find out who.
01:05:01No need.
01:05:04I just saved your career, and secured your place within this family.
01:05:08You're welcome.
01:05:09What did she do?
01:05:10Well, you were going to get rid of that girl eventually.
01:05:12I simply sped things up.
01:05:14You threatened her?
01:05:15Don't be so dramatic.
01:05:17I arranged for Mrs. Green to receive top-tier medical care.
01:05:21And the only condition?
01:05:23And the only condition?
01:05:24Lila walks away from you.
01:05:30How long do you plan to control my life?
01:05:36Wake up, Henry.
01:05:38You are not just yourself.
01:05:39You are Richard Vaughn's son.
01:05:42My son.
01:05:43And the heir to this family.
01:05:45Have you still not figured that out?
01:05:47Did I ever get a say in any of this?
01:05:51Get back here!
01:05:53Mrs. Vaughn!
01:05:55Mrs. Vaughn!
01:06:06You okay?
01:06:09What are you doing here?
01:06:11Well, considering it's my family's hospital, did you really think I wouldn't show?
01:06:16They said it was an exhaustion.
01:06:18This isn't your fault.
01:06:20You've done everything that she's ever expected of you.
01:06:23Don't blame yourself.
01:06:25I'm not blaming myself.
01:06:29I just don't know when it became so hard to be around her.
01:06:35I checked with the doctors.
01:06:37They said that she'd wake soon.
01:06:41And everything's going to be fine.
01:06:43And everything's going to be fine.
01:06:49And really, you couldn't have picked a better hospital.
01:06:56Speaking of which, I have a little update on your fiancé's family situation.
01:07:02You mean Mrs. Grant?
01:07:04JHU's doing a new study on VR-assisted memory recovery.
01:07:09If you're willing to fast-track her treatment.
01:07:13That's great.
01:07:16Thank you, Helen.
01:07:18No need to thank me.
01:07:20We're friends, aren't we?
01:07:28If you really want to thank me...
01:07:35See? Catching up with me isn't so bad, is it?
01:07:39Today hasn't been the worst.
01:07:41You do remember that we're still friends, right?
01:07:43Even though our engagement's off.
01:07:46Now that we're on the topic of it,
01:07:49I do have to ask.
01:07:52Are you sure you don't want to marry me?
01:07:55A union between our families, we could withstand anything.
01:07:58Helen, I'm serious about Lila.
01:08:03I haven't told her yet.
01:08:05But I love her.
01:08:10Wow.
01:08:14I don't think I've ever heard you use that word before.
01:08:16And neither have I.
01:08:20Until now.
01:08:32Come on.
01:08:34Just one meal.
01:08:36Can I have my friend's full attention for just once?
01:08:38It'll just be one second.
01:08:40Just wait until I explain about Mrs. Green's treatment.
01:08:44Then you can give her all the details at once.
01:08:47Wouldn't that be better?
01:08:50Fine.
01:09:03So the study is still in early works.
01:09:06But if you want her to have a shot,
01:09:07then she should be transferred as soon as possible.
01:09:09I see.
01:09:11I'll talk to Lila.
01:09:13Thank you, Helen.
01:09:20I like her, you know.
01:09:21She's...
01:09:24different.
01:09:26Cute.
01:09:34I need to take this.
01:09:35Lila wouldn't keep calling unless it's urgent.
01:09:37I just thought of something.
01:09:39How about we both go to the hospital together
01:09:41and we'll tell her the news in person?
01:09:50Helen.
01:09:52What are you doing?
01:09:54You've been trying to distract me since we sat down.
01:09:57What exactly are you planning?
01:10:01I don't know what you're talking about.
01:10:03You're stalling.
01:10:04Why?
01:10:04Henry, I swear I...
01:10:05I'm warning you.
01:10:06You...
01:10:08tell me now.
01:10:21What did you do to Lila?
01:10:22Nothing!
01:10:23You better be telling the truth.
01:10:30You never even saw me.
01:10:36I should never have trusted him.
01:10:43Don't go, Lila.
01:10:48You're a liar. Don't touch me.
01:10:50Lila, I didn't lie to you.
01:10:52Go have dinner with your real fiancé.
01:10:54Goodbye.
01:10:55You saw us?
01:10:57Oh.
01:10:58So you're finally admitting it.
01:10:59Great. Just fantastic.
01:11:02Mrs. Green is missing
01:11:03and you're out having some fun.
01:11:05And you're out having some romantic meal with Helen.
01:11:08What did you just say?
01:11:08Mrs. Green is missing?
01:11:10Yes, genius.
01:11:11David had her taken.
01:11:12He said you ordered it.
01:11:13But I'm not stupid.
01:11:15I know that you would never do something so pointless.
01:11:17It's my mother.
01:11:18She must have planned this with Helen.
01:11:20No wonder she was pushing the treatment conversation.
01:11:22You know what?
01:11:23It doesn't matter anymore.
01:11:25If you want me gone, just say it.
01:11:27Okay?
01:11:29I will make it easy for you.
01:11:30You can have your happily ever after.
01:11:32My happily ever after is only with you.
01:11:36Just stop lying, please.
01:11:39You're using me.
01:11:40And you said you were at the hospital with Laura,
01:11:43but you weren't.
01:11:43And then you hung up on me.
01:11:52Let go.
01:11:53Just listen to me, please.
01:11:56Okay?
01:11:58My mother did collapse earlier.
01:12:00I took her to the hospital.
01:12:02She's stable now.
01:12:03Helen only showed up because it was her family's hospital.
01:12:07She came to find me.
01:12:09I didn't know anything about Mrs. Green being taken.
01:12:12Okay?
01:12:12I swear.
01:12:13I already suspected David was reporting my movements to my family,
01:12:16so I had someone tail him.
01:12:18You...
01:12:19You did?
01:12:20Yeah.
01:12:21We'll find Mrs. Green.
01:12:24Soon.
01:12:25I promise you, Myla, nobody is going to hurt your family.
01:12:29What about lunch?
01:12:30What about lunch?
01:12:32Helen told me about this new treatment,
01:12:35one that could help Mrs. Green recover her memory.
01:12:38I was relieved.
01:12:40Okay? That's all we talked about.
01:12:43She set me up.
01:12:45Myla.
01:12:46She knew you'd see us.
01:12:47She knew you'd call.
01:12:49And I'm betting she had David tip her off to your whereabouts
01:12:52just to make you doubt me.
01:12:54Myla.
01:12:56Can you forgive me?
01:13:00No.
01:13:02Now's not the time.
01:13:06You're right.
01:13:08When this is all over,
01:13:10we'll have plenty of time to talk about us.
01:13:18Come on.
01:13:20I know where Mrs. Green is.
01:13:23Let's go take her home.
01:13:31How?
01:13:32How did she get here?
01:13:34David moved her to a different hospital.
01:13:38But she must have found her way back here.
01:13:41He remembers this place?
01:13:44Yes, Myla.
01:13:45Maybe she remembers more than we think.
01:13:48And if we give her enough time,
01:13:50maybe she'll remember everything.
01:14:00You've come to tell me your decision, haven't you?
01:14:14You always said you know me.
01:14:17You should already know my decision.
01:14:19You're gonna ruin everything.
01:14:22No.
01:14:24Everything's saved because of her.
01:14:26And what about the mall project?
01:14:29Have you thought about that?
01:14:30We're still building
01:14:32the biggest shopping center in the world.
01:14:35But it will be unlike any other.
01:14:38There will be a park inside.
01:14:39And at its heart,
01:14:40the best orphanage in the world.
01:14:43You're keeping Starlight House?
01:14:45Because it belongs there.
01:14:48I'm not tearing it down.
01:14:49I'm making it better.
01:14:51We'll rebuild it into something better.
01:14:54We'll rebuild it into something brighter,
01:14:57something real.
01:14:59And what about your father?
01:15:01He won't stand for this.
01:15:03He wasn't happy at first.
01:15:04Then he saw the stock price.
01:15:09I used to think that love meant obeying you.
01:15:15Meeting every expectation you set.
01:15:19But love isn't about becoming what
01:15:22someone else wants you to be.
01:15:24It's about accepting who you really are.
01:15:29I hope that one day,
01:15:34you'll love me that way too.
01:15:54I've been thinking about why you feel so familiar.
01:16:11And?
01:16:13I used to hate it when the balloons
01:16:14came to Starlight Homes.
01:16:15But one day, that changed.
01:16:18Why?
01:16:19Because I met a very handsome,
01:16:26very quiet, very kind boy.
01:16:30How handsome?
01:16:35I'm sorry it took me so long to recognize you.
01:16:39You're forgiven.
01:16:41I love you.
01:16:49I love you too.
