00:00:04Finn Myers, if I had known that this is how it would end,
00:00:08I wish we'd never met. I'd never fallen in love with you,
00:00:12and never pressured you into marrying me. I've been trapped in this marriage for two years,
00:00:16and I'm tired of waiting in vain. It's time to call it quits.
00:00:20If there's anything I can do, you can call me, you can text me. That won't ever be necessary.
00:00:24Just one thing my grandpa cannot know yet.
00:00:28You and your lovely assistant can be out in public. How many times have I told you
00:00:32there's nothing going on between me and your sister? Step-sister. And I don't need any more
00:00:36explanations. The moment that I signed that piece of paper, I was done with you and Mia.
00:00:40Sis?
00:00:44I'm sorry. Finn isn't available right now. It's one in the morning.
00:00:48Where is he? We're in Vegas. He didn't tell you?
00:00:52Sorry, sis. Gotta go. I'll let him know you called. Bye.
00:00:58Hit me.
00:01:02Hello, gorgeous.
00:01:06You here all alone? Maybe I can buy you a drink.
00:01:10Stay away from me.
00:01:14Come on, baby. Let's have some fun, huh?
00:01:18You bitch.
00:01:22Stella?
00:01:28I know you. You okay?
00:01:32You're Finn's friend. I jerked you. You all are.
00:01:36Stella, it's me. It's Derek. I'll call Finn to come pick you up.
00:01:40No. Do not call that jerk.
00:01:44You crying? You okay?
00:01:48I'm not crying. I dumped him.
00:01:52I dumped him.
00:01:56Well, look, maybe we should just call it a night.
00:02:00Looks like we've both had enough to drink here.
00:02:04You okay?
00:02:08You are a very good-looking man.
00:02:12And I'm a divorced woman now.
00:02:16I have my rules. Come on.
00:02:20I know a place with the best champagne. My treat.
00:02:24My treat.
00:02:28Stella, I don't think that's a fantastic idea.
00:02:32Look, I think maybe we should just get you home.
00:02:36No, I do not want to go home. I just want to drink.
00:02:40And celebrate the first day of my divorce.
00:02:44Do you know who I am?
00:02:48You're my honeybee.
00:02:52What did you just call me?
00:02:56My honeybee.
00:03:00I want you
00:03:04to say my name, Derek.
00:03:08I want to hear you say it.
00:03:12I want you to say it.
00:03:16I want you to say it.
00:03:20I want you to say it.
00:03:24I want you to say it.
00:03:28I want you to say it.
00:03:32I want you to say it.
00:03:36I want you to say it.
00:03:40Derek?
00:03:44Oh God, what have I done?
00:03:48Your grandpa called.
00:03:52He asked us to go home and have dinner with him.
00:03:56What for?
00:04:00He arranged some kind of party.
00:04:04Fine, just don't forget what you promised me.
00:04:08You promised me not one peep about us to grandpa.
00:04:20Derek, so glad you're able to make it back.
00:04:24It's been a long time.
00:04:32Watch your step.
00:04:38Hi.
00:04:42It's a real shame that Ami couldn't join us here tonight.
00:04:46You really should meet her.
00:04:50She's all grown up now.
00:04:54Quite a lovely young lady.
00:04:58Yeah, I'd love to meet her.
00:05:02Excuse me, I'm going to use the restroom.
00:05:06Okay.
00:05:18Can I have one?
00:05:22Can I have a new one?
00:05:26Yeah, sure.
00:05:30Can I have a light?
00:05:34Okay.
00:05:50I got a question for you.
00:05:54Why are you here with Finn? I thought you two got divorced.
00:05:58It's none of your business.
00:06:04I thought we had fun the other night. I was thinking maybe we could do it again sometime.
00:06:08Shut up.
00:06:12You know that, right?
00:06:16Well, at least you're divorced, right?
00:06:20You really are a jerk like Finn.
00:06:28You need to set up Mia and Derek.
00:06:32We're going to the Myers' court.
00:06:36If Mia marries into the Hughes family, we'll be unstoppable in the city.
00:06:40Is everyone's marriage just business to you?
00:06:44When you set me up with Finn, were you even thinking about my happiness?
00:06:48Or do you only care about how much Myers will invest in us?
00:06:52The last I checked, I'm still president of the Ortiz Corporation.
00:06:56So, if you don't want to get fired, you'll do as I say.
00:07:00I don't suggest you take that tone with me. If you still want to inherit the company.
00:07:04I'll deliver an heir.
00:07:12You can go now.
00:07:16Stella, stop being so childish. Let's just go home.
00:07:20Mr. Myers, don't you remember? We are no longer a married couple.
00:07:24I haven't asked the lawyer to file the divorce paper yet, okay?
00:07:28I think your grandpa needs an heir.
00:07:32You've been eavesdropping.
00:07:36That doesn't matter. The point is I can fulfill your grandpa's wish.
00:07:40The moment that you messed around with Mia, you have been dead to me.
00:07:44How many times do I have to tell you there is nothing between Mia and me? She is just my assistant.
00:07:48Oh, and she can stay in the same room with you and answer phone calls from your wife?
00:07:52We were on a business trip. I was drunk and she was there to take care of me, okay? Nothing happened.
00:07:56I will explain to you everything over and over and over again.
00:08:00Well, no problem. You won't have to do it again.
00:08:02Where are you going? It is none of your business.
00:08:04Oh, it's my business. Let go of me.
00:08:06Where are you going? Hey, let go of her, man.
00:08:12Derek, what are you doing here? Stay out of it.
00:08:16She said let go. So let go.
00:08:20Oh, that's why you signed those papers so fast. You've been with him, haven't you?
00:08:24You bitch. Watch your fucking mouth.
00:08:28How long have you been messing around behind my back?
00:08:30Let me just finish this.
00:08:34You handed me those divorce papers. I signed them as you wish.
00:08:38What the hell are you doing here? Stella, you've never talked to me like this before.
00:08:42All of a sudden, he shows up and you're divorcing me?
00:08:46Throughout our entire marriage, I made sure your mother was happy.
00:08:48I gave you all of my projects and what have you done for me?
00:08:52Come home. I've come home plenty of times. There's reasons I've been...
00:08:54Enough. I don't need any more explanations.
00:08:58File the divorce papers. If you don't, I will.
00:09:02And what's going to happen to your company when the public finds out that our marriage ended because of him?
00:09:08How far is your stock price going to drop once everyone finds out about this scam?
00:09:12Yeah, however much the Ortiz stock price, Hughes is going to compensate.
00:09:22You can try all you want. Whatever happens to her stock, I'm going to make sure it happens to yours.
00:09:26Just a little worse.
00:09:28Derek, I'm your friend.
00:09:30You shouldn't have done this.
00:09:34You think you're going to get me twice?
00:09:40Come on, let's go. Let's get out of here.
00:09:52You don't have to.
00:10:00I want to.
00:10:02And I shed this blood for you.
00:10:06You know that, right?
00:10:16Where are we?
00:10:18We're at my house.
00:10:20I don't understand.
00:10:22You need an heir to inherit your company.
00:10:26I know that you and Finn got divorced, so...
00:10:30Why not me?
00:10:32You.
00:10:36I know that it's always been a dream of yours to take over Ortiz Corp.
00:10:40And I know you sure as hell don't want your so-called sister taking it, do you?
00:10:44How do you know all this?
00:10:50Does it matter?
00:10:52Are you serious?
00:11:20I made you breakfast. I hope you like waffles.
00:11:34After you finish that, I'll take you to work, okay?
00:11:36That's okay. Besides, people don't know that Finn and I are divorced yet.
00:11:40And if they saw my husband's friend driving me to work, that would be kind of weird.
00:11:44I mean, I think it's fine. Everyone already knows about it.
00:11:48Look.
00:11:53What the fuck?
00:12:01What have you done?
00:12:03Your story is all over the news.
00:12:05Our stock price has dropped 20% since the market opened.
00:12:08Come home right now.
00:12:14What about our connections with the Myers Corp?
00:12:16Don't worry, Grandpa. I found someone else.
00:12:20I will restore our family's reputation.
00:12:22And I will fulfill your wish by producing an heir.
00:12:26Don't listen to her, Grandpa.
00:12:28Look at the photo. Look at the jerk she's found.
00:12:31That jerk can't even afford a hotel room.
00:12:33She's been fooling around with him, not only tanking our corporation's stock prices,
00:12:37but also ruining our family's reputation.
00:12:39Stop trying to be a hero, Stella.
00:12:42Do you really think you can restore our family's reputation? That's impossible.
00:12:46You have no room to talk.
00:12:54Anything that the Hughes family can help out with?
00:13:00Mr. Hughes?
00:13:02Are you the someone Stellas was talking about?
00:13:04Yes, Mr. Ortiz.
00:13:06Me and Stella are together. I'm sorry that this is the way you had to find out.
00:13:09She just divorced Finn yesterday.
00:13:11She must have been cheating on Finn while they were still married.
00:13:15You're one to talk, Mia.
00:13:17I actually have something that might change all of your perspectives.
00:13:21Why don't we check it out?
00:13:27Grandpa, it's not like that.
00:13:29Finn was drunk. I was just trying to help him get home.
00:13:32Grandpa, you have to believe me.
00:13:34I was just trying to help him get home.
00:13:36What a shame. You should have been an actress.
00:13:42Sis? I'm sorry. Finn isn't available right now.
00:13:45It is one in the morning. Where is he?
00:13:47We're in Vegas. He didn't tell you?
00:13:49Sorry, sis. Gotta go.
00:13:51I'll let him know you called. Bye.
00:13:54That's not what it sounds like.
00:14:00Grandpa, she is setting me up. You have to believe me.
00:14:03I didn't do anything.
00:14:05I never touched him.
00:14:07Grandpa and I brought you in and gave you a home.
00:14:09And yet you lie.
00:14:11I don't care if you don't respect me, but do not lie to him.
00:14:14I never touched my brother-in-law.
00:14:16And yet you did.
00:14:18I think it's time that you call your driver.
00:14:21Or do you want him sent to your bed too?
00:14:24Mia, I want to hear another word.
00:14:28This family has already been through too much.
00:14:31You're no longer a child.
00:14:33Take responsibility for your actions.
00:14:36Grandpa, what are you talking about?
00:14:38I never thought you were a person like this.
00:14:41Just leave. Now!
00:14:47Or I'll call security to have you taken out.
00:14:50Grandpa, I live here.
00:14:54Where am I supposed to go?
00:15:04Stella Ortiz.
00:15:06Just wait.
00:15:08I'm coming for you.
00:15:18Oh, it's you again.
00:15:21Stella left me.
00:15:23Are you happy now?
00:15:25Get out. Get out. Leave.
00:15:29Stella, don't leave me.
00:15:33I'm here, Finn.
00:15:35I'll never leave you.
00:15:38Stella.
00:15:40I'm here.
00:15:46Explain.
00:15:50Mr. Ortiz, I'm sorry.
00:15:53I'm sorry.
00:15:56Mr. Ortiz, I know that things are going fast between Stella and I,
00:16:00so let me provide an explanation.
00:16:02I've been in love with Stella for years now,
00:16:04but Finn and her were married,
00:16:06and when I found out they got divorced,
00:16:08well, I couldn't hold my feelings in any longer.
00:16:10Oh, my God. He's so good at lying.
00:16:12Well, here we are.
00:16:14I just met him.
00:16:16Finn doesn't love me.
00:16:18Mia just proved that, Grandpa.
00:16:20Derek and I are happy, and...
00:16:23And if Stella and I ever decided to have a baby,
00:16:27your company will have the support of both the Hughes and the Ortiz's.
00:16:37You're a very lucky man.
00:16:39Stella's a good girl.
00:16:53Where are you here?
00:16:55I thought I just did us a favor up there.
00:16:58Instead of thanking me, you're...
00:17:00you're questioning me.
00:17:02You know that the only reason my Grandpa agreed to this
00:17:04is because you said the baby would have both the Hughes and Ortiz's full support.
00:17:08And I meant it.
00:17:10Let me help you, Stella.
00:17:15Please.
00:17:17Are you out of your mind?
00:17:19What do you want from me?
00:17:21What do you want from me?
00:17:23You.
00:17:25What do you think?
00:17:27That's not a part of the deal.
00:17:29You're just here to...
00:17:31get me pregnant.
00:17:33Whatever you want.
00:17:45You don't feel the same
00:17:48Wondering when it changed
00:17:52Did you come to play my baby?
00:17:59I'm running your race
00:18:03My heart's in its place
00:18:07Wondering if you'll stay
00:18:13I'm tired of figuring out
00:18:16Whether you're in or you're not
00:18:21I see it as a warning
00:18:24I feel it as a warning
00:18:27I've got those lingering doubts
00:18:31Showing me with and without
00:18:36I see it as a warning
00:18:39I feel it as I'm falling
00:18:42Might I remind you, you are no longer a part of this family.
00:18:46Let alone the company.
00:18:48Get out, or I will call security.
00:18:50Relax. What's with the tone?
00:18:52My boyfriend and I are here.
00:18:54We have a business proposition.
00:18:57Your boyfriend?
00:18:59Just in time.
00:19:05Tina?
00:19:07Yes, Ms. Ortiz?
00:19:09Yes, Ms. Ortiz?
00:19:11Put these two on the blacklist and call security.
00:19:14The QC project.
00:19:16I know you've been battling with mountain-free studios for a while now.
00:19:19I can give you that and...
00:19:22a 1% profit concession for your company.
00:19:26Name your price.
00:19:28Yeah? Tell her what you want.
00:19:32You know what, sis?
00:19:34When the maids threw my luggage out of the house,
00:19:37I realized I left something behind.
00:19:39Something very important to me.
00:19:42What is it?
00:19:44That diamond necklace.
00:19:47You know the one I'm talking about, right?
00:19:49My mother left this behind for me.
00:19:53Our mother, sis.
00:19:55She's my mother, too.
00:19:57Our mother, sis.
00:19:59She's my mother, too.
00:20:01She's made her decision.
00:20:03Why don't we give that project to someone who would actually do a good job with it?
00:20:09Wait. I will give you a position in the company that's worth more than the project.
00:20:14No.
00:20:16Nothing is worth more than that necklace.
00:20:23It's just a necklace.
00:20:25I'll get you a brand new one, even better diamonds.
00:20:28I want that one.
00:20:30It's not going to happen.
00:20:37You want this project.
00:20:39I know you do.
00:20:41Just give her the necklace.
00:20:45Keep your project.
00:20:47And get the hell out of my office.
00:20:50Call security.
00:20:52You know, without this contract, coupled with our divorce,
00:20:55your company's stock prices are going to plummet.
00:20:58You'll be non-existent.
00:21:02Try to carefully, Stella Ortiz.
00:21:14Hey, I know you want that project.
00:21:16Hey, listen, just...
00:21:17I'll give you the project.
00:21:19I'll give you the house.
00:21:20I'll give you the car.
00:21:22I'll give you anything.
00:21:24You are so drug fed.
00:21:26Stella. Stella. Stella.
00:21:28Hey, don't touch her.
00:21:39So tell me.
00:21:41When exactly did you two start getting together?
00:21:44Was it when we were married?
00:21:46It doesn't matter anymore.
00:21:48I am your damn husband.
00:21:50You were.
00:21:53You were my husband.
00:22:05Why are you here?
00:22:08What, I can't pick up my girlfriend from work?
00:22:14I am not your girlfriend.
00:22:17What's between us is only in bed.
00:22:21And you don't need to pick me up from work.
00:22:25This being an exception.
00:22:33How do you not remember me at all?
00:22:37A few months later.
00:22:45Ms. Ortiz, Ms. Ortiz.
00:22:46Is it true that you and Finn Myers are divorced?
00:22:48An insider claims that you cheated on Finn Myers
00:22:50and that's why he filed for divorce.
00:22:52What do you have to say to that?
00:22:53And how do you feel about being dumped
00:22:55after two years of marriage?
00:22:57Does that mean that all cooperation with the Myers company is cancelled?
00:23:00Hey, hey, hey, no comment, no comment.
00:23:02Come on, we just have a couple of questions.
00:23:05No comment, no comment.
00:23:06Please, have some class.
00:23:07Come on, you guys.
00:23:11What the hell is going on?
00:23:15Ms. Ortiz, the news about you divorcing Mr. Myers is all over.
00:23:18What?
00:23:27Hey sis, are you enjoying your gift?
00:23:31You did this.
00:23:33This isn't the end of it. Enjoy.
00:23:39Ms. Ortiz, because of the news,
00:23:42several companies called this morning.
00:23:44They said they wanted to cancel their contracts with us.
00:24:04Mr. White, no.
00:24:06My personal affairs will not affect our cooperation.
00:24:10Mr. White?
00:24:14Mr. White?
00:24:17I'm sorry Ms. Ortiz,
00:24:19but I can't continue our contract with you.
00:24:29Breaking news.
00:24:30Stella Ortiz, the CEO of Ortiz company,
00:24:32has divorced Finn Myers.
00:24:34Ortiz's company stock price has plummeted
00:24:36since the market opened.
00:24:39Ms. Ortiz, the CNR project is about to reach its final stage.
00:24:43If the funding chain breaks now,
00:24:45the company will go bankrupt.
00:24:47Our only solution now is...
00:24:51To acquire that project from Finn.
00:24:59Hey, I know you want that project Stella.
00:25:01I'll give you...
00:25:02I'll give you the project.
00:25:04I'll give you the house.
00:25:05I'll give you the car.
00:25:07I'll give you anything.
00:25:09God.
00:25:30Where's Stella?
00:25:31Ms. Ortiz is having a meeting in the conference room with...
00:25:40Mr. Schmidt,
00:25:42the current financial difficulties within the company
00:25:45are only temporary.
00:25:49If you sign with us,
00:25:51we can turn losses into profits, okay?
00:25:56Listen, I've been friends with your grandfather for years.
00:25:58I have no doubt in your abilities.
00:26:01Great.
00:26:03I will sign this.
00:26:06I will sign this.
00:26:09On one condition.
00:26:17What are you doing?
00:26:20Do you still think you're the precious Ortiz family princess?
00:26:23Nobody wants to sign with you!
00:26:25What I'm asking for isn't much.
00:26:27Just remember me.
00:26:30What's going on here?
00:26:32You realize who you're talking to?
00:26:33That's my fucking girlfriend right there.
00:26:39Mr. Hughes, I didn't know she was your girlfriend since when?
00:26:45Are you questioning me?
00:26:46No, no, no, no, no.
00:26:47That's not what I meant.
00:26:48I just didn't know.
00:26:50I'm going to go ahead and cancel all cooperation with Schmidt Company.
00:26:53As for you specifically,
00:26:54I don't think you're ever going to find work in this city ever again.
00:26:57Mr. Hughes, please, please, please.
00:27:00You're making a mistake.
00:27:01I have a family to feed,
00:27:02and my daughter, she's studying abroad.
00:27:04Please, you can't do this to me.
00:27:05Please.
00:27:06You should have thought about that
00:27:07before putting your grimy hands on Ms. Ortiz.
00:27:09Now, get the fuck out of the office.
00:27:15Leave!
00:27:17Leave!
00:27:31Yeah, right.
00:27:37I should have been the one you called today, Stella.
00:27:40Why didn't you call me?
00:27:42This is my company.
00:27:43It has nothing to do with you.
00:27:46You didn't need to come here.
00:27:47I could have dealt with him myself.
00:27:48How?
00:27:49By spending a night with that fucking asshole?
00:27:52Huh?
00:27:54I can always find somebody else, okay?
00:27:59Why not let me do it?
00:28:01I want to invest in your company, okay?
00:28:03You're going through so much right now,
00:28:05and all I want to do is help,
00:28:06so just let me help you.
00:28:09Please.
00:28:10I don't want your help.
00:28:15Why?
00:28:17Look, why won't you let me help you?
00:28:19Why won't you let me...
00:28:21Why do you keep pushing me away, Stella?
00:28:24Because I don't want you to look down on me.
00:28:28What are you talking about?
00:28:29I don't want you to look down on me.
00:28:31I cannot accept help because
00:28:34then everybody will think I'm a jerk.
00:28:36I cannot accept help because
00:28:38then everyone will think that I'm weak.
00:28:48Do you know how exhausted I am?
00:28:51I work over 12 hours every single day
00:28:54just to keep this company afloat.
00:28:56And it's like no matter what I do,
00:28:57I can't make Grandpa happy.
00:29:01And if this scandal completely derails the company,
00:29:03I don't even know how I'm going to face Grandpa.
00:29:07You think I wanted to meet with that jerk?
00:29:09No.
00:29:12I have no one now.
00:29:13I am completely on my own.
00:29:21That's not true.
00:29:22You have me.
00:29:24You know that.
00:29:31Stella.
00:29:32No.
00:29:33Stop making this more than what it is.
00:29:36I want it to be more than it is.
00:29:40Please.
00:29:43Please.
00:29:49It's going to be okay.
00:29:55I promise.
00:30:06Stella.
00:30:11Everything's going to be okay.
00:30:17I promise.
00:30:35I promise.
00:30:50You can sit with me if you want.
00:31:00Did your daddy not teach you how to tie a tie or something?
00:31:06It's okay.
00:31:07Here.
00:31:08So you're going to make this one twice as long as this one.
00:31:11Alright.
00:31:12And then it goes over, under, over.
00:31:16Oh.
00:31:17And then it goes through.
00:31:18Alright.
00:31:19And through here.
00:31:21Okay.
00:31:22And then you pull this to tighten it around your neck.
00:31:25There.
00:31:27You're welcome.
00:31:35You were the only one that ever cared to help me.
00:31:38It's okay that you don't remember.
00:31:40But I'll never forget you.
00:32:06Looks like someone had a fun night.
00:32:09Who are you?
00:32:10Oh, I'm sorry.
00:32:14I am Layla Johnson.
00:32:16And I am Derek's fiancée.
00:32:18Fiancée?
00:32:21He must have forgot to tell you.
00:32:23We got in a little fight before he came to the States.
00:32:25We were supposed to be married and move here together,
00:32:28but we got in a little fight.
00:32:30I'm sorry.
00:32:31It's okay.
00:32:32We were supposed to be married and move here together,
00:32:34but we got caught up.
00:32:36So he ended up moving back by himself.
00:32:39So now it's your turn.
00:32:40Who are you and why are you in my fiancée's bedroom?
00:32:46Well, I've met a lot of women like you,
00:32:51but none of them have made it this far.
00:32:54So good for you.
00:32:56I, uh, I gotta go.
00:32:58What's the rush?
00:32:59Don't you want to wait for him to come back?
00:33:01It's kind of rude to leave before breakfast.
00:33:14What the hell are you doing here, Layla?
00:33:15I came here to see you.
00:33:16I'm happy to find this lovely lady in your bedroom.
00:33:19I'm leaving.
00:33:20There's no reason to be hasty.
00:33:24Care to explain what she's doing here?
00:33:26Why don't you ask your fiancée about that?
00:33:28Let her follow me.
00:33:30Hey, you're hurting her, Layla.
00:33:32Let her go and I'll explain everything later, alright?
00:33:35Stella! Stella!
00:33:37Hey, hey.
00:33:38You okay?
00:33:50How is she?
00:33:51Is she awake yet?
00:33:52She's fine.
00:33:53She passed out from low blood pressure.
00:33:55However, I did review her medical files
00:33:58and it seems like she suffered from memory loss.
00:34:02Have you noticed it fluctuate recently?
00:34:04When did this happen?
00:34:06It looks like it's a congenital condition.
00:34:08She likely has had it from a young age.
00:34:25You know, Stella's in the hospital.
00:34:26They said that she has amnesia.
00:34:28Did you know about this?
00:34:38So that's why you don't remember me, huh?
00:34:50Where's Stella?
00:34:51Stella has amnesia.
00:34:52You knew about it.
00:34:53Why didn't you tell me?
00:34:54Look, I knew she was sick, but I didn't know about all of that.
00:34:58The patient is awake, but she's having a panic attack.
00:35:12Stella, Stella, I'm here, I'm here.
00:35:14Stay with me, stay with me.
00:35:15Just breathe.
00:35:16Deep breaths.
00:35:17Good.
00:35:18Deep breaths, I'm right here.
00:35:21There you go.
00:35:22It's okay.
00:35:23It's gonna be okay.
00:35:24Stay with me, breathe.
00:35:26Breathe.
00:35:32What the hell was that?
00:35:34I don't know.
00:35:36Do you have Ms. Ortiz's past medical records?
00:35:38Yes.
00:35:54It seems like I made a wrong call.
00:35:57Stella doesn't have a congenital memory condition,
00:36:00although her brainwaves may suggest that.
00:36:03It's possible this is related to emotional imbalances in her life.
00:36:13Doctor, is there anything that we could do to help?
00:36:16For now, it's best if you don't do anything.
00:36:19I don't know what to do.
00:36:20I don't know what to do to help.
00:36:22For now, it's best to not upset her.
00:36:25Besides that, we need further examination.
00:36:28You heard the doctor.
00:36:30I'm not hiding anything.
00:36:32I promise you, if I find out that you're lying,
00:36:35you're gonna regret it.
00:36:40Hey.
00:36:44You alright?
00:36:47I could call the doctor for you if you need...
00:36:51What am I doing in the hospital?
00:36:54You passed out.
00:37:00What are you doing here?
00:37:04What is that?
00:37:06The project you want.
00:37:12I'm not trading my mother's necklace for that.
00:37:15No strings attached.
00:37:17It's all yours.
00:37:18Why are you doing this?
00:37:24I just want to help.
00:37:29I don't want that handed to me just out of pity that I'm laying here.
00:37:39What do you want from me, huh?
00:37:41Nothing I've ever done has pleased you.
00:37:49Oh my god.
00:37:51This is the grand finale to my novel series.
00:37:54Where did you get this? It's not even out yet.
00:37:57I'm just glad it makes you happy.
00:38:02I don't need you to please me.
00:38:05Not anymore.
00:38:13Like you said,
00:38:15no strings attached.
00:38:18As you wish.
00:38:28Don't get this the wrong way, I just wanted him off my back.
00:38:35I don't mind being used by you.
00:38:43Take it, it's probably your fiancé.
00:38:46Look,
00:38:48I'm going to explain everything to you later.
00:38:51I'm going to go right now, I've got to take this.
00:38:53But if you need anything at all, just let the doctor know.
00:38:57I'll be right back.
00:39:15Hello?
00:39:45Hello?
00:40:06Where have you been?
00:40:10Did you go to see Stella?
00:40:12It's none of your business.
00:40:13I'm your girlfriend.
00:40:15The only reason you're staying here
00:40:18is because it's out of pity.
00:40:20You have nowhere else to go.
00:40:22Whether or not you're my girlfriend, that's not for you to decide.
00:40:26Know your place.
00:40:28You know my place when we're in bed together.
00:40:30You should know better than to talk to me that way.
00:40:46My dear sister, it looks like you need taken care of.
00:41:07How did you know I was here?
00:41:09Why didn't you tell me you were coming?
00:41:11I didn't know you were coming.
00:41:12How did you know I was here?
00:41:14Why didn't you tell me you were sick?
00:41:16I was worried about you.
00:41:18No need.
00:41:20Just go.
00:41:22Come on, sis. I care about you.
00:41:24Before Grandpa kicked me out, we did everything together.
00:41:27I'm worried about your well-being.
00:41:30What the hell do you want from me?
00:41:33Do you remember why Grandfather adopted me?
00:41:37Let me refresh your memory.
00:41:38When your dad passed, your mother was devastated.
00:41:43Several times she tried jumping out of a building while she was pregnant with you.
00:41:48Grandfather stopped her each time, but he was worried about her.
00:41:53So, he locked her up inside the house and he never let her leave.
00:41:58Grandpa, today's my birthday.
00:42:01I want to see Mom.
00:42:03Will you let Mom out?
00:42:09You should have been stoked that day.
00:42:12All of your loved ones surrounding you.
00:42:15What the hell are you trying to say?
00:42:18When you went looking for your mother on the balcony, she was already standing on the ledge.
00:42:24And then, she jumped.
00:42:29Mom?
00:42:31Stella, Mom is going to find Daddy.
00:42:34Mom!
00:42:39It was your fault.
00:42:42You murdered her.
00:42:44You killed your own mother and you don't even remember it.
00:42:48If it weren't for you, she'd still be alive today.
00:42:53After that, you were in such a state of shock.
00:42:57When you woke up, you didn't remember a thing.
00:43:01That's when I came into the picture.
00:43:03Grandpa was worried you'd be traumatized, so he adopted me to accompany you.
00:43:11I saved you.
00:43:15Is it all coming back to you now?
00:43:17Just shut up!
00:43:19Make me.
00:43:21You killed your own mother.
00:43:24You don't deserve to live.
00:43:26In fact, why don't you go find her?
00:43:29You can join her in hell.
00:43:32No, my necklace!
00:43:38Hey, come on, come on, get over here.
00:43:53This is for my necklace.
00:43:57And this is for all the years that you lived under my roof.
00:44:02Look at you.
00:44:04You could stand up for yourself, but turns out you're just a paper tiger.
00:44:11You and those designer clothes, you are no different than me.
00:44:16And we have all moved on from you.
00:44:19You can't say that to me.
00:44:22You never saw me as a sister, never.
00:44:25This whole family is so messed up.
00:44:28This whole family is so messed up.
00:44:37Hey, Stella, wait.
00:44:41I found this for you.
00:44:48Of course.
00:44:53Why are you here? Shouldn't you be with your fiancé?
00:44:55Oh, don't.
00:44:58Don't say that.
00:45:01I don't want to see you right now.
00:45:03Stella, wait, come on. I know you have feelings for me.
00:45:06All right, look me in the eye and tell me that you don't.
00:45:09Because I'll leave. I'll go right now.
00:45:13Admit it.
00:45:15You do have feelings for me.
00:45:18Manu, this is real.
00:45:26Yeah.
00:45:33Is this real?
00:45:44Tell me that kiss wasn't real.
00:45:55It was.
00:45:57You shut me down.
00:46:22I'm sorry, Ms. Ortiz. I tried to stop her.
00:46:25Can I help you?
00:46:28You seem to be forgetting that he's engaged to me.
00:46:35Then you should keep better tabs on your fiancé.
00:46:38He did kiss me first.
00:46:40That's because you seduced him.
00:46:44Is that all? I'm kind of busy here.
00:46:47He's not yours.
00:46:49And he deserves so much better than damaged goods.
00:46:54No, dear.
00:46:56Are you done?
00:46:57Why?
00:46:59Are you scared of the truth?
00:47:01He's going to get sick of you.
00:47:03And then he's going to come back right to me.
00:47:07Because you're his side-piece.
00:47:12Did you hear that?
00:47:14That's your fiancé.
00:47:21Why don't you talk to her yourself?
00:47:25Laila, who told you that you were still my fiancé?
00:47:28Derek, our parents...
00:47:30You should inform your parents that the Hughes is about to terminate all collaboration with their company
00:47:33and all contracts will be cancelled accordingly.
00:47:36My lawyer will visit your company to file the paperwork.
00:47:40Derek, no.
00:47:41Please!
00:47:42Derek!
00:47:44Derek!
00:47:52Please.
00:47:54Ms. Ortiz.
00:47:56If my parents find out that Derek cancelled on us,
00:47:59they will kill me.
00:48:01Please.
00:48:14That's all I can do for you.
00:48:17What am I supposed to do with $100?
00:48:20Don't spend it on damaged goods.
00:48:24I'm sorry.
00:48:34Laila was the fiancé that my parents had chosen for me.
00:48:38The only reason I had agreed to it was because
00:48:41I had given up hope on a girl
00:48:44that I had fallen in love with while living at a hospital when I was a kid.
00:48:49You lived at a hospital when you were a kid?
00:48:54Yes.
00:48:59Why are you crying?
00:49:01I can't sleep.
00:49:02I want my mom.
00:49:04Where is your mom?
00:49:06I don't know.
00:49:08It's okay.
00:49:09My maid, she taught me this song.
00:49:11And it might help.
00:49:16Hush little baby, don't say a word.
00:49:20I'm gonna buy you a mockingbird.
00:49:23I don't like mockingbirds.
00:49:25Can I have an elephant?
00:49:26Sure.
00:49:28Hush little baby, don't say a word.
00:49:32I'm gonna buy you an elephant.
00:49:35Thanks.
00:49:36No problem.
00:49:43Miss Stella,
00:49:45you still like elephants?
00:49:53Everybody makes mistakes.
00:49:57You.
00:49:58You were the little boy in my heart.
00:50:01Why didn't you tell me earlier?
00:50:03I can't.
00:50:04I always thought it was Finn.
00:50:07When I came back to the States, you and Finn were already married.
00:50:13You know, there wasn't much I could do about it.
00:50:16When I found out you two divorced,
00:50:18I knew that I'd already missed my first chance at you.
00:50:21I wasn't gonna let it happen again.
00:50:24You have no idea how much it hurt to see you two in public.
00:50:32All I wanted to do was tell you that I had been waiting for you all that time,
00:50:38but I didn't want to inconvenience your life.
00:50:44You know, you seemed so happy without me.
00:50:54That's because I thought I found you.
00:51:02Let me show you something.
00:51:16Did it hurt?
00:51:17It doesn't hurt anymore.
00:51:24I love you.
00:51:29We've got work to do.
00:51:31Yeah, we do.
00:51:45Oh, Miss Ortiz.
00:51:46What is your relationship with Mr. Myers now?
00:51:49Why did you suddenly divorce Mr. Myers?
00:51:51Is it true that your sister was a third wheel in the marriage?
00:51:57My marriage with Mr. Myers has ended.
00:51:59It has nothing to do with anyone.
00:52:01It just did not work out.
00:52:03Rumors say that the company's money chain has been broken.
00:52:05Is it true?
00:52:07Ask me again in a few weeks.
00:52:08Oh, Miss Ortiz.
00:52:09Miss Ortiz, what happened?
00:52:10A couple more questions, please.
00:52:16Uh, Mr. Ortiz called this morning.
00:52:18He said that if there's no new funding,
00:52:20the project's losses will be too much for the company to bear.
00:52:27Aren't there any other projects open for public bidding?
00:52:33Wait a second.
00:52:34Isn't that new building downtown open?
00:52:38If we bid on that, financing shouldn't be a problem, right?
00:52:42But the whole company's salary has been delayed by three weeks already.
00:52:47And today I received a letter of resignation from the design department.
00:52:52The whole department?
00:52:55If we don't pay them as soon as possible,
00:52:57even if we win the bid for the project,
00:53:00we won't be able to manage it.
00:53:13Miss Ortiz?
00:53:14Miss Ortiz?
00:53:19This right here is Queen Elizabeth II's pendant.
00:53:24If I mortgage this and every other property under my name,
00:53:28it should be enough to pay off the salary.
00:53:30Are you sure? I mean, isn't that what your mother left you?
00:53:35And now it'll save Ortiz Corp.

00:55:24which means that the property is officially ours.
00:55:27Great.
00:55:58You know, if you wanted the land,
00:56:00you could have bid on it yourself.
00:56:03I trust your judgment.
00:56:06I also consider it an investment in our partnership.
00:56:11By the way, I expect every penny of those dividends.
00:56:13I don't think that you can just get away with it
00:56:16now that you're my girlfriend.
00:56:19So, I am your girlfriend now.
00:56:23Is that going to be a problem?
00:56:27How do you know that the land can be developed as planned?
00:56:31I have faith in you.
00:56:34How do you know that the land can be developed as planned?
00:56:38I have faith in you.
00:56:48Miss Ortiz, I'm sorry. I tried to stop him.
00:56:50After all this time, I thought you were my friend.
00:56:52And then you go behind my back with my wife?
00:56:56And you.
00:56:58Was I not good enough for you?
00:57:00Was I not good enough for you?
00:57:03I gave you everything and now you're with him.
00:57:08You know, Finn.
00:57:10I always wondered why you took late nights.
00:57:14You never helped me.
00:57:15And it's probably because you felt guilty all along that
00:57:19you never should have been my husband.
00:57:23How could you say that?
00:57:26That little boy from my ward,
00:57:30wasn't me.
00:57:33You've been pretending to be me for so long
00:57:35that you're starting to believe your own lies, aren't you?
00:57:42Are you just now figuring that out? Congratulations.
00:57:47Do you know how hard that's been for me all this time?
00:57:51Stella.
00:57:52Stella.
00:57:54The love I had for you was real.
00:57:57It is real.
00:58:00I was happy when I found out you were jealous of me.
00:58:03And it's killed me that I couldn't tell you the truth about who I was.
00:58:17I was attracted to you from the day I met you.
00:58:21I was visiting Derek, my best friend at the time.
00:58:24And I was so jealous of him.
00:58:27I wish I had been the one that had gotten sick so I could have met you first.
00:58:31And then I found out that he was leaving the country and I thought,
00:58:33hey, this is my shot.
00:58:36So I pretended to be Derek.
00:58:38And I wrote him letters.
00:58:40And then you asked me what his name was and I gave you mine.
00:58:44And then you suddenly appeared outside my company building
00:58:48and you were holding those letters.
00:58:50And I couldn't tell you that I wasn't that boy from the war.
00:58:54So you were the one who wrote the letters?
00:58:56And then you asked me to marry you.
00:59:00I couldn't tell you the truth.
00:59:03I guess that's what I've been avoiding all these years.
00:59:06The truth.
00:59:09I wanted to tell you so many times.
00:59:13That my love for you is no less than his.
00:59:17I just keep asking myself why.
00:59:20Why couldn't I have met you first?
00:59:24I guess it's too late now.
00:59:26No.
00:59:43Ms. Ortiz, the company is back on track.
00:59:46You don't need to be working these 12-hour days anymore.
00:59:51Also, Mr. Hughes has been calling for you all day.
00:59:56Alright, let's go home.
00:59:59And you can take the day off tomorrow.
01:00:13Honey?
01:00:26Honey?
01:00:46Stella?
01:00:48I've been dreaming about this day ever since we met in that hospital.
01:00:52When we were kids.
01:00:53I have no doubt in my mind that you're the woman I want to spend the rest of my life with.
01:00:59Now when you married Finn,
01:01:02it broke my heart.
01:01:05But I can't live in the past.
01:01:08But I can plan for the future.
01:01:12And I want to spend it with you.
01:01:15Making up for lost time.
01:01:18Let me show you how much I love you, Stella.
01:01:21Let me show you.
01:01:31Will you marry me?
01:01:33Who proposes with a necklace?
01:01:37That's my mother's pendant.
01:01:39You bought it back?
01:01:51Is that a yes?
01:01:55Yes. Of course, yes.
