Short filmTranscript
00:00:00Whoever has a child first, either you or your sister, will inherit the Benson Group.
00:00:23They're all ready for you.
00:00:25Welcome, Miss Benson.
00:00:27Sorry, Miss, why are you in such a rush?
00:00:31This whole inheritance thing was my grandfather's idea.
00:00:35I would rather die than let my sister run things.
00:00:39Not this one.
00:00:47Is this it? How am I supposed to trust that their genes are good enough for my child?
00:00:51I made sure they met the requirements.
00:00:53Over six foot two inches tall, no family history of genetic diseases and Ivy League graduates.
00:01:01Miss Benson, I personally chose each one just for you.
00:01:04Miss Benson, you had a little too much. Let me help you to your room.
00:01:08No, I can handle it myself. You can go.
00:01:10All right, take care, sir.
00:01:11You over there in the corner. Why weren't you lined up with the others?
00:01:12You over there in the corner. Why weren't you lined up with the others?
00:01:16You over there in the corner. Why weren't you lined up with the others?
00:01:18You over there in the corner. Why weren't you lined up with the others?
00:01:22Bring him to my room. Yes, Miss Benson.
00:01:24You over there in the corner. Why weren't you lined up with the others?
00:01:34Bring him to my room. Yes, Miss Benson.
00:01:38Well, this isn't what I expected for today, but I'm sure you know who you're dealing with.
00:02:06You talk too much.
00:02:28You're asking for trouble.
00:02:36Oh, you're awake already. You were great last night.
00:03:00What do you mean?
00:03:02What? You want me to give you a pat on the back?
00:03:06Don't kick it 3D.
00:03:08I've given you more than enough.
00:03:15You really have no idea who I am, do you?
00:03:17I don't need to.
00:03:34Happy with last night?
00:03:38Not that.
00:03:39Wow, if that comes out your mouth, that's a really nice compliment.
00:03:45The proposal for the bidding project has been submitted to the Palma Group.
00:03:49But I hear there's quite a few submissions.
00:03:51Yeah, we need to land that project no matter what.
00:03:55We'll do whatever it takes.
00:03:56Elliot Palmer just returned to the country yesterday.
00:03:58Elliot Palmer just returned to the country yesterday.
00:04:00It's sad he'll personally oversee this project.
00:04:02Why does he look so familiar?
00:04:12Why does he look so familiar?
00:04:14Why does he look so familiar?
00:04:16Did you really think getting a project from the Palma Group would be that easy?
00:04:29Evelyn?
00:04:30What are you doing here?
00:04:32Just here to wake you from your daydream.
00:04:34Oh, by the way, my fiancée, Xander, is going to introduce me to Mr. Elliot at the Palma Group's bidding event.
00:04:43How does that sound?
00:04:46You and your good-for-nothing boyfriend sounds impossible.
00:04:50Don't forget, Xander is Mr. Palmer's nephew.
00:04:53And you're just a nobody, sir.
00:04:58Unfortunately for you, Mr. Palmer's not so stupid, so I think I'll make the right decision.
00:05:04Just wait till I have this project secured.
00:05:07You'll be the first to notice.
00:05:21How are you feeling, sir?
00:05:22Have a few too many last night?
00:05:28Did you get...
00:05:29There are several companies interested in partnering on this project.
00:05:37Here are the proposals.
00:05:41Yeah, these are mediocre.
00:05:47This one from the Benson Group.
00:05:52Make sure they're invited to tomorrow's pre-bid conference.
00:05:54Mr. Palmer, I've sent the invite to the Benson Group, upon your request.
00:05:55Their rep is Miss Claire Benson.
00:05:56Mr. Palmer, I've sent the invite to the Benson Group, upon your request.
00:05:57Their rep is Miss Claire Benson.
00:05:58Mr. Palmer, I've sent you to the Benson Group, upon your request.
00:05:59The rep is Miss Claire Benson.
00:06:00Mr. Palmer, I've sent the invite to the Benson Group, upon your request.
00:06:09Mr. Palmer, I've sent the invite to the Benson Group, upon your request.
00:06:13Their rep is Miss Claire Benson.
00:06:15It is her.
00:06:31What are you doing here?
00:06:33Oh, I pitched a project to the Palmer Group and got invited.
00:06:37Turns out Mr. Palmer's really interested in what I have to say.
00:06:43Don't get too confident.
00:06:45There's a lot that can still happen.
00:06:47Once I sit down with Mr. Palmer and go over the details, he'll choose me for sure.
00:06:51You love this, just need to worry about looking pretty.
00:06:55Leave the business stuff to me.
00:06:58Claire!
00:06:59I don't need to get to you. She's just jealous.
00:07:03No. I'll find a way to get rid of her.
00:07:06I think this will be boring.
00:07:11You know.
00:07:12Oh, oh, oh.
00:07:13Jesus, how are you so clumsy?
00:07:29What are you doing?
00:07:31Are you trying to ruin the conference or something?
00:07:33Who is that?
00:07:34Causing such a commotion at the Palmer's Group bidding event?
00:07:36I heard she's the Benson family's eldest daughter.
00:07:40So irresponsible.
00:07:42You pushed me!
00:07:44Oh, Claire, don't make false accusations.
00:07:47If you're going to make such a scene, you might as well leave.
00:07:50Yeah.
00:07:51Claire, just go.
00:07:52We don't want to mess up the deal and upset the Palmer family.
00:07:56I was invited.
00:07:57Who are you to throw me out?
00:07:59Well, as a Palmer, we can do exactly as we please.
00:08:04Mr. Palmer has arrived.
00:08:11Mr. Palmer has arrived.
00:08:12Mr. Palmer has arrived.
00:08:22I'm Charlie Wheeler, Mr. Palmer's secretary.
00:08:25Thank you all so much for attending the pre-bid conference.
00:08:29Mr. Palmer is tied up with some urgent matters and won't be attending.
00:08:32Thank you for your understanding.
00:08:34Well, Mr. Palmer is a bit of a mystery.
00:08:37It's tough to catch him.
00:08:38It's a shame.
00:08:39I was really looking forward to getting to know him.
00:08:41Everyone here is thinking the same thing.
00:08:43Did you really think you had a shot?
00:08:46Mr. Wheeler, I'm so sorry, but my sister was a bit clumsy and made a mess.
00:08:52I will have her leave right away.
00:08:56Miss Benson, we apologise for the complication.
00:09:00To make it right, Mr. Palmer has arranged some fresh clothes for you.
00:09:03If you'd like to follow me.
00:09:07Me?
00:09:07Yes.
00:09:08Please.
00:09:09Come with me.
00:09:16Wow.
00:09:18Does this mean she might actually get to meet Mr. Palmer?
00:09:20What luck.
00:09:22If I'd have known that, I'd have made a scene too.
00:09:27No.
00:09:28You just made things easier for Claire.
00:09:31Uncle Elliot doesn't usually miss things like this.
00:09:34I wonder what going to him.
00:09:38Santa.
00:09:39Help me figure out a way to sabotage Claire's proposal.
00:09:43If I get this project, I'll have more power in the company.
00:09:45I'll see what I can do.
00:09:55Charlie, can I ask you something?
00:09:57Sure thing.
00:09:58What's on your mind?
00:09:58Is it possible to have a chat with Mr. Palmer?
00:10:01I've done a deep dive into the Palmer Group's co-embidding project.
00:10:04And I've put together a solid proposal.
00:10:07I'd like to speak to Mr. Palmer in person.
00:10:10According to protocol, you would need to speak with the project manager at Palmer Group first.
00:10:14But I'll check in with Mr. Palmer.
00:10:22Wait.
00:10:24Isn't that the escort from before?
00:10:25Has he found himself a sugar mama?
00:10:30Miss Benson?
00:10:33Mr. Palmer has left a spare change of clothes in there for you.
00:10:36I'll be right back, okay?
00:10:37Thank you, Charlie.
00:10:39You've even gone so long.
00:10:41Did you lose weight?
00:10:44Are you taking care of yourself?
00:10:47Now, Grandma keeps asking about you.
00:10:49Don't forget to visit her when you're free.
00:10:53I'll make sure I see her soon.
00:10:56You go on and keep grandma company.
00:10:58I'll catch up to you once I finish my work.
00:11:03Mr. Palmer?
00:11:05Miss Benson mentioned that she had a detailed proposal and wants to talk to you.
00:11:10She wants to see me.
00:11:12All right.
00:11:13Oh, by the way, I need you to run a background check on Claire.
00:11:17Consider it done, sir.
00:11:24Hmm.
00:11:25Mr. Palmer has a great taste.
00:11:34What are you doing here?
00:11:36Weren't you the one who wanted to see me?
00:11:41Weren't you the one who wanted to see me?
00:11:42What are you talking about?
00:11:48Not bad.
00:11:50I just really see it soon.
00:11:51This is a bidding event for the Palmer Group family.
00:11:55You need to leave, like, right now.
00:11:56How do you know I was hurt?
00:12:05How do you know you weigh around everything so well?
00:12:13I've been here a few times.
00:12:14Do you treat every woman like this?
00:12:31What do you mean?
00:12:32Well, I just noticed.
00:12:34It seems you've attached yourself to a rich guest at the Palmer Group event.
00:12:38Must have some solid connections.
00:12:41I really think you've got the wrong idea.
00:12:42You know what you do, explain.
00:12:44I know you're just trying to impress me with your tricks.
00:12:47I won't be coming back to you again.
00:12:49You don't mean to waste your energy on me.
00:12:53Are you really sure you won't come looking for me later?
00:12:55I mean, you might end up regretting it.
00:12:59With all these options, why would I regret anything?
00:13:04Oh, Claire, I can't wait for you to see my true self.
00:13:12Charlie, did Mr. Palmer agree to meet with me?
00:13:15I'm sorry, Mr. Palmer isn't free today.
00:13:19When is he free?
00:13:20Can you set up a meeting?
00:13:22I shall let you know as soon as he's available to meet.
00:13:25Thank you for your help.
00:13:31Grandfather, are you okay?
00:13:35Why did you call a doctor?
00:13:36It's all your fault, Claire.
00:13:38Thankfully, the doctor got here just in time.
00:13:41Claire, what happened at the banquet?
00:13:44The Palmer Group foamed me directly,
00:13:48postponing our cooperation with the Benson Group.
00:13:53What? But why?
00:13:54Isn't it because you made a fool of yourself at the bidding event and caused such a scene?
00:14:00How can that be?
00:14:02Claire, you've really disappointed me.
00:14:05You know how everybody is relying on this project?
00:14:14Don't worry, Grandpa.
00:14:16Xander is going to talk to Mr. Palmer for me.
00:14:19Well done.
00:14:20Xander will have to work very hard on the cooperation.
00:14:24That isn't needed.
00:14:26I'll take back the project myself.
00:14:29Um, you don't have an appointment, so you can't go up.
00:14:43Okay, fine.
00:14:44Can I make an appointment right now?
00:14:46Unfortunately, Mr. Palmer's schedule is packed for the next three months.
00:14:51So, you can leave your contact info with us, and we'll get back to you right away.
00:14:57Mr. Palmer's office is on the top floor.
00:15:04Why can't I find it?
00:15:05Hey, didn't you guys finish up their repairs already?
00:15:28What are you still doing here?
00:15:29Yeah, yeah, well, I'll be right down.
00:15:31Hey, you, stop.
00:15:33Where are you going?
00:15:34Who are you?
00:15:35Security!
00:15:38Mr. Palmer, I'm so sorry to intrude.
00:15:41My name's Claire.
00:15:42Claire Benson, I'm working.
00:15:47What?
00:15:53What's with the outfit?
00:15:57Darling, I've got a table for us tonight.
00:16:04Why is there a plumber here?
00:16:11Madam, I apologise.
00:16:13This is my mistake.
00:16:14I'll make sure to see you.
00:16:15I'll go out to wait.
00:16:16Okay, okay.
00:16:17Yeah, let me go.
00:16:18I just wanted to speak to Mr. Palmer.
00:16:23Do you know her?
00:16:24Yeah.
00:16:25I've crossed paths a few times.
00:16:31Right, all right.
00:16:32I can walk myself.
00:16:35I've seen a lot of women like you come around here
00:16:38and try and get close to Mr. Palmer.
00:16:40Let me assure you, that won't work.
00:16:43There's that lady in there, Mrs. Margaret Palmer.
00:16:45If you think you're going to use her to get close to Mr. Palmer,
00:16:49let me be clear, that won't work.
00:16:51Mrs. Margaret Palmer having that kind of meeting in her son's office.
00:16:56That's a real shocker.
00:17:03How did the meeting go?
00:17:05Didn't even get to see Elliot Palmer.
00:17:07I need to find another way.
00:17:14Hello?
00:17:15Hello?
00:17:15Hello?
00:17:15Hello?
00:17:15Hello?
00:17:15Hello?
00:17:15Hello?
00:17:15Hello?
00:17:15Hello?
00:17:15Hello?
00:17:16Hello?
00:17:16Hello?
00:17:17Hello?
00:17:17Hello?
00:17:18Hello?
00:17:18Hello?
00:17:19Hello?
00:17:19Hello?
00:17:20Hello?
00:17:20Hello?
00:17:21Kathleen might be expecting.
00:17:24Are you kidding?
00:17:26Kathleen and her fiancé went to the maternity clinic together today.
00:17:31This can't be happening.
00:17:33I need to figure this out immediately.
00:17:36Keep searching for someone.
00:17:38Don't hold back on the cost.
00:17:39I need this tonight.
00:17:40See, are you telling me Claire was looking for a male escort?
00:17:52Yes, sir.
00:17:54Her grandfather has made it clear that only those who can provide a third generation first
00:17:59will inherit the Benson family business.
00:18:00So she came up with this absurd plan and she thinks I'm one of them.
00:18:06I also heard that she's on the lookout for a male escort tonight.
00:18:10It seems she didn't have any luck last time around.
00:18:14I need to find out why she's meeting these escorts tonight.
00:18:19I've got loads of tricks up my sleeve, so I'll definitely please you.
00:18:33You can't even say your own name.
00:18:34Next.
00:18:35You can't even say your own name.
00:18:36Next.
00:18:37Oh, this one looks nice.
00:18:38Look at those biceps.
00:18:39Skipping leg day, though.
00:18:40Who are these people you're bringing to me?
00:18:41I just want someone who feels right.
00:18:42Do you have any specific requests?
00:18:43No.
00:18:44No.
00:18:45No.
00:18:46No.
00:18:47No.
00:18:48No.
00:18:49No.
00:18:50No.
00:18:51No.
00:18:52No.
00:18:53No.
00:18:54No.
00:18:55No.
00:18:56No.
00:18:57No.
00:18:58No.
00:18:59No.
00:19:00No.
00:19:01No.
00:19:02No.
00:19:03No.
00:19:04No.
00:19:05No.
00:19:06No.
00:19:07No.
00:19:08No.
00:19:09No.
00:19:10No.
00:19:11No.
00:19:12No.
00:19:13No.
00:19:14No.
00:19:15No.
00:19:16No.
00:19:17No.
00:19:18No.
00:19:19No.
00:19:20No.
00:19:21No.
00:19:22No.
00:19:23No.
00:19:24No.
00:19:25No.
00:19:26No.
00:19:27No.
00:19:28No.
00:19:29No.
00:19:30No.
00:19:31No.
00:19:32No.
00:19:33No.
00:19:34No.
00:19:35No.
00:19:36Mr. Palmer, what can I do for you?
00:19:58Quit.
00:19:59Why?
00:20:00Why would someone say no to my offer?
00:20:03He mentioned he had an emergency.
00:20:07Okay, so hire someone else then.
00:20:10I saw one of the other guys like a moment ago.
00:20:12He's not available either.
00:20:15What, he had an emergency as well?
00:20:17No, Miss Benson, he's already been hired by someone else.
00:20:21What about the others?
00:20:23I just spoke to the manager and he said...
00:20:27He said what?
00:20:29There's only one escort left in the entire place.
00:20:31How is that possible?
00:20:34The manager said a VIP booked out all the others.
00:20:39All hired by one person.
00:20:44That is quite a craving.
00:20:48Alright, let's just go with the one that's available.
00:20:51You again?
00:21:01Yeah, I just wanted you to be sure where the father of your baby was.
00:21:04He said...
00:21:05What?
00:21:05Oh!
00:21:06What?
00:21:09No!
00:21:10Ah!
00:21:11Ah!
00:21:13Ah!
00:21:17Ah!
00:21:18Ah!
00:21:19Ah!
00:21:19Ah!
00:21:23Why does my nose itch?
00:21:43It's just the AC or something.
00:21:51Give me your thumb.
00:21:53I'll call you when I'm ready again.
00:22:11Just don't book anyone else and tell me.
00:22:16Okay, well I'll just be waiting for you, okay?
00:22:19I heard a VIP dropped a load of cash in here yesterday.
00:22:29You mean Mr. Palmer?
00:22:32Mr. Palmer?
00:22:35Elliot Palmer was in here last night.
00:22:41Elliot Palmer was in here last night.
00:22:43Oh, he was definitely here, if you know what I mean.
00:22:48You mean...
00:22:50You didn't hear it from me, but Mr. Palmer asked for all the male escorts.
00:22:57I can't believe Elliot would be into something like that.
00:23:01But I guess if Margaret is a wild card, why wouldn't her sons?
00:23:05No wonder they're related.
00:23:06Does Mr. Palmer come here often?
00:23:10That was his first visit.
00:23:12Please do let me know if he comes again.
00:23:14That might not be the best idea.
00:23:16No worries, Miss Benson.
00:23:28I'll handle it.
00:23:35Hello?
00:23:36Claire, do you even realise the trouble you've caused?
00:23:40Get home right now!
00:23:42Claire, do you see the mess you've created?
00:24:01Claire, even if you are looking for a guy, you should need to settle for an escort.
00:24:07The gossip is already everywhere, saying your personal life is a disaster.
00:24:11And it's hitting Benson's stock prices.
00:24:16Sir, I'm very disappointed.
00:24:20Grandfather, it's a misunderstanding.
00:24:23Clearly.
00:24:23I was at the bar for business.
00:24:27I actually have a boyfriend.
00:24:30A boyfriend?
00:24:32Ooh.
00:24:34How did I not know about that?
00:24:36Since when do you need to know my personal life?
00:24:38Why not have him come to Grandpa's birthday in a few days?
00:24:47Have him meet Grandpa.
00:24:50Nothing's got a good point.
00:24:52I want to see if he's a good fit.
00:24:54If he is, we can get and handle things early.
00:24:58Quiet the rumours and boost the stock prices.
00:25:06Yes, Grandpa.
00:25:15Here.
00:25:16This is for you.
00:25:17Sir, last night you were...
00:25:34Oh, thank you for your arrangements last night.
00:25:37Miss Benson really is something else.
00:25:49It was just yesterday she was asking me about Mr. Palmer.
00:25:52Look at them now.
00:25:53So close already.
00:25:57Isn't Alfred your boss?
00:25:59Why don't he just call you sir?
00:26:02He did?
00:26:03He was always nice to us.
00:26:05Hmm.
00:26:06Speaking of last night,
00:26:08I heard Mr. Palmer
00:26:09run throughout the whole place to mail escorts.
00:26:13Who knew the mysterious Mr. Palmer had such wild taste?
00:26:17I wonder he's been around.
00:26:18He's probably too busy in bed.
00:26:20Is that why you wanted to see me?
00:26:23Hmm.
00:26:23No.
00:26:26I want you to be my boyfriend.
00:26:27Are you for real?
00:26:34Well, it's just an act to help me deal with my grandfather.
00:26:39Do you think this will work?
00:26:41Don't worry, I'll make sure that you're happy with the deal.
00:26:44Well, no, I won't cut it.
00:26:46Fine, what do you want?
00:26:48Don't be too greedy.
00:26:50I just want this.
00:26:54You.
00:26:57From now on, you're a young entrepreneur
00:27:03just returning home from business.
00:27:07Right.
00:27:09Let's go find you an outfit.
00:27:17What?
00:27:18Yes, that's right.
00:27:22Mr. Brown decided not to lend out anything.
00:27:26Borrow it.
00:27:27Why didn't you just buy it?
00:27:29Mike's design is the most exclusive in the country.
00:27:33Even celebrities from overseas have to book a year in advance
00:27:36to wear his clothing.
00:27:38It's not something you can just buy.
00:27:39We had a deal.
00:27:42Where is Mike?
00:27:43I want to speak with him personally.
00:27:45He's not here.
00:27:47Or he's just avoiding me.
00:27:50Enough.
00:27:54I can't lend you the outfits, my love.
00:27:59Why?
00:27:59Well, with all this recent media attention around you,
00:28:04aligning my brand with you right now is not ideal.
00:28:07Especially considering I can't control who may end up in my designs.
00:28:13Oh, I hope you understand.
00:28:14It's nothing personal.
00:28:15I just have to prioritize what's best for me and my brand.
00:28:21What's the issue here?
00:28:24You.
00:28:25Mr. Pike, is it?
00:28:27That's me.
00:28:27So, um, I'm hearing that...
00:28:31I'm not worthy to wear your clothes.
00:28:34Oh, no, no, no, no, not at all.
00:28:36It would be an honor if you were to wear my designs.
00:28:39Um, sorry, is this how you treat all your customers?
00:28:44Oh, I'm so sorry, Miss Spencer.
00:28:48This is all my fault.
00:28:49Why the sudden change in attitudes?
00:28:51Well, this, um...
00:28:53Gentleman's style and presence aligns perfectly with my brand's gym.
00:29:00Please, please, if I may, if I may.
00:29:05Who says that looks can't pay the bills?
00:29:23Who says that looks like a glove?
00:29:26Who says that looks like a glove?
00:29:27Who says that looks like a glove?
00:29:28Who says that looks like a glove?
00:29:29Well, it was styled just right for this gentleman.
00:29:32Mm-hmm.
00:29:33Let's see what Kathleen has to say this time.
00:29:39Hey, just remember, this is a 1945 Chateau de John Rothschild.
00:29:44Just say that you brought it.
00:29:45I already told you, I have a gift.
00:29:48It's on its way.
00:29:49What could you have possibly got?
00:29:51I know your job is tough.
00:29:52Don't go crazy with it, okay?
00:29:54Just keep it short.
00:29:55Don't let anything slip.
00:29:57Okay.
00:29:57Hello, Mr. Benson.
00:30:09My name's Elliot.
00:30:10I'm Claire's boyfriend.
00:30:12Elliot.
00:30:14Please take a seat.
00:30:19Where on earth did Claire find a guy like him?
00:30:23That's a mic design, isn't it?
00:30:26Don't worry.
00:30:27I heard Claire went to a bar the other day.
00:30:34She probably hired him.
00:30:36I'll expose her to sweet.
00:30:43So, Elliot, what do you do?
00:30:47Well, I was...
00:30:47He...
00:30:48Well, he just moved back to the country
00:30:51and started a construction company.
00:30:54Oh, isn't that something?
00:30:58The Benson group's just getting into construction, too.
00:31:03Why not have Claire's boyfriend share his future plans with Grandpa?
00:31:07Maybe even share some advice?
00:31:09Well, he's just starting out.
00:31:14You know, he's just figuring it out right now, learning the ropes.
00:31:17Claire, can your boyfriend not speak for himself?
00:31:22Claire, stop interrupting.
00:31:25I'd like to hear what Elliot thinks.
00:31:29Let's see what this escort can come up with.
00:31:31I want to shake up the building bid that's traditionally used and, um, agencies.
00:31:50Now, these won't be, like, regular branches.
00:31:54They'll, um, they'll produce everything themselves to keep higher profit margins on the overall projects.
00:31:59He really seems to know what he's talking about.
00:32:08It's just a coincidence.
00:32:10Elliot, our chat today has, uh, really given me a lot to think about.
00:32:15You know an awful lot for a man of your age.
00:32:18Thank you, sir.
00:32:20Well, you must have really put an effort to memorise that.
00:32:22Well, that was definitely needed.
00:32:23Oh, Grandpa, Elliot also bought you a gift.
00:32:32Is this a rare vintage wine?
00:32:34Yeah, we bought it as a sign of respect to you.
00:32:38We hope you enjoy it.
00:32:44Oh, I remember this bottle.
00:32:47It was auctioned off last month.
00:32:49The last name of the buyer was Benson.
00:32:53Right?
00:32:54No, you must be wrong.
00:32:57I actually have the auction news right here, Grandpa.
00:33:00See, this bottle was definitely bought by Claire.
00:33:06Elliot, could you not afford a gift or did you just not care?
00:33:11Claire?
00:33:12Yes, I did buy it, but I...
00:33:14Claire bought this because she really cares.
00:33:16My gift is on its way.
00:33:20If you buy something random right now, it will actually make it worse.
00:33:23Just trust me.
00:33:26Seriously, Claire.
00:33:27What kind of boyfriend did you find?
00:33:31Did you just pick him up off the street?
00:33:40Mr. Vincent, there's a rather fancy car parked outside
00:33:43and it seems to be blocking the front entrance.
00:33:49There's a rather fancy car parked outside
00:33:52and it seems to be blocking the front entrance.
00:33:54Is that Xander?
00:33:55It's definitely Xander.
00:33:57You must be here to bring presents for your grandpa.
00:34:01Oh, Xander, I knew it was you.
00:34:03Happy birthday, Mr. Benson.
00:34:15Mr. Benson,
00:34:16these gifts are for you.
00:34:17Is this the Hulk special watch that's worth millions?
00:34:29I didn't know they made them anymore.
00:34:31Well, I happen to know the CEO very well
00:34:33and I got one from his private collection
00:34:36just for you.
00:34:40Oh, look at the colour of that gem.
00:34:43The clarity.
00:34:44You can't buy quality
00:34:46even if you've got a stash of money.
00:34:50Did you really get all these gifts?
00:34:52Yeah.
00:34:53Yeah, I did, actually.
00:34:54Do you accept our gifts?
00:34:57I accept these gifts.
00:35:00Thank you very much.
00:35:03Didn't you say he was just an escort?
00:35:07How on earth could he afford anything?
00:35:10Is it possible that Claire's actually found herself
00:35:13a rich boyfriend?
00:35:15Seriously?
00:35:16Seriously, how did you afford these?
00:35:18They're all fake, of course.
00:35:21Had them made up special for a lot of money.
00:35:268,000?
00:35:2780,000.
00:35:29Oh.
00:35:29All this to make you look good.
00:35:32You should probably pay me back later.
00:35:37What's so special about that?
00:35:39Sander will be here soon
00:35:40and he's Mr Elliot Palmer's nephew.
00:35:43The Palmer family's wealth and status
00:35:45is far superior to some flashy boyfriend.
00:35:50My nephew.
00:35:51If he shows up,
00:35:52won't everyone know who I really am.
00:35:54Hello, everyone.
00:35:55Hello, everyone.
00:36:04You've been lovely.
00:36:06Darling.
00:36:07You must be Claire's boyfriend.
00:36:14Good to be.
00:36:15Yeah.
00:36:16I assume haircut wasn't at the top of your checklist, eh?
00:36:18You really have no idea who I am.
00:36:27Why would I know you?
00:36:30This is Elliot.
00:36:33He's an entrepreneur that's just come back from abroad.
00:36:37Grandpa's really into this guy.
00:36:42Hurry up and give him your gift.
00:36:44Stop all that.
00:36:47This is a vintage 1992 bottle of wine.
00:36:49I had my, uh, my uncle set it up just, just for you.
00:36:561992.
00:36:57Never seen one of this nature?
00:36:59Or have you got something better to show me?
00:37:01Well, they say it's the thought that counts, right?
00:37:08I'm happy anyway.
00:37:10The rich family like the Palmers,
00:37:12and we can't even get a decent bottle of wine.
00:37:15Sam is such a tight one.
00:37:16I bet Elliot Palmer is worse.
00:37:18That's not fair.
00:37:20Maybe Elliot Palmer has no idea who Xander even is.
00:37:24Look at that beard's his nephew.
00:37:28What's your last name?
00:37:36What's your last name?
00:37:41Never mind.
00:37:42You're just an escort.
00:37:44There's no way you could be linked to the Palmers.
00:37:46Claire Huffling.
00:37:49It's lovely to see you two settle down.
00:37:52It really makes me very happy.
00:37:56I'll take great care of Kathleen.
00:37:58And the family, of course.
00:38:02Claire, now that Kathleen's pregnant,
00:38:05you two will have to hurry up a bit.
00:38:08All in good time, Grandpa.
00:38:14You did really great today.
00:38:16Go ahead and head back first.
00:38:22I'll catch up later.
00:38:23Just remember to pay me back for the gifts and the car rental.
00:38:27Yeah, sure thing, money waster.
00:38:29Boss, found out what you wanted.
00:38:43That Xander is just the son of the Palmer family's driver.
00:38:46Changed his name a while back to trick people.
00:38:49I'm just curious as to where he came from.
00:38:52Looks like a fake.
00:38:54Should we file charges?
00:38:55I can get the legal team to whip up some papers.
00:38:57No.
00:38:59No, not at the moment.
00:39:00I want them to realise that the higher they climb, the higher they fall.
00:39:03Can you meet me tonight?
00:39:22You have an international meeting already set.
00:39:26Sorry, I can't do tonight.
00:39:29Guess I'll have to find somebody else.
00:39:31I think even booking an escort is a hassle.
00:39:38Is she seriously going to find someone else?
00:39:40I'm afraid Miss Benson is set on having a child.
00:39:43You need to put an end to this situation once and for all.
00:39:46I thought the Benson group were keen on working with us.
00:39:54So you're saying that the Palmer group not only wants to discuss the partnership,
00:39:58but Mr Palmer wants to set up a meeting today.
00:40:00Yep, I just heard from his secretary.
00:40:02It's confirmed.
00:40:04Well, cancel the bar reservation then.
00:40:07Get your car ready.
00:40:09We're going to the Palmer group.
00:40:20Come in.
00:40:23Mr Palmer.
00:40:23Mr Palmer, I'm Claire.
00:40:31Claire Benson.
00:40:32This is the project proposal we've been meaning to share with you.
00:40:43You are Claire.
00:40:44Is this really Mr Palmer, the CEO?
00:40:48Why is he wearing that mask?
00:40:51Is he hiding something?
00:40:53You have five minutes.
00:40:55Wait, that voice.
00:40:57Sounds so familiar.
00:40:59Miss Benson.
00:41:01Sorry.
00:41:02The proposal tells you everything you need to know.
00:41:06The Benson group has a lot of experience in this area.
00:41:11We can help your company grow in the property sector within two quarters.
00:41:14This is good.
00:41:16The Benson group has really been looking forward to working with...
00:41:19But we have five other companies who are submitting similar proposals.
00:41:25Why should we choose yours?
00:41:27Whatever you need, I can do it.
00:41:29I can make it happen.
00:41:30There is just one thing I'd like from you.
00:41:36Yes, of course.
00:41:38Whatever you need, as long as it's within my power, consider it done.
00:41:42I want you to be my secret lover.
00:41:48I want you to be my secret lover.
00:41:54What?
00:41:55Did you just say?
00:41:56From now on, you are not permitted to see anyone else.
00:42:00Well, didn't you say you would do whatever it takes?
00:42:03But I...
00:42:04Never mind.
00:42:12Miss Palmer.
00:42:15I accept your conditions.
00:42:18Are you certain about this?
00:42:20If this is what it takes to get the deal...
00:42:23All right, fine.
00:42:24Charlie, give me contract.
00:42:26Why does he always put Miss Benson through this?
00:42:30This is a secret deal.
00:42:33Once you sign, you will follow all the rules I make.
00:42:36Whenever I call, you must answer.
00:42:39Partnership with your company will start right away.
00:42:43Are you ready for this?
00:42:50I didn't think Miss Benson would have even less pride than I thought.
00:42:54Pride doesn't pay the bills, does it?
00:42:56Mr. Palmer.
00:42:59What's wrong about you?
00:43:07What are you doing?
00:43:08I just want to reveal the ugly truth behind the mask.
00:43:11The one that you hide from everyone.
00:43:13Black!
00:43:14Why was your head made of metal?
00:43:16Don't let this little bit of power go to your head.
00:43:18There are plenty of people that would love to go on a date with me.
00:43:21You should just take a look in the mirror and ask if you even deserve me.
00:43:31Sir, don't let Miss Benson get to you.
00:43:34She's just trying to exploit her.
00:43:36Perceives weakness, that's all.
00:43:43Claire.
00:43:45A bit more fascinating than I thought.
00:43:47Elliot's finally back in town.
00:43:52But I haven't seen him all day.
00:43:55I think Elliot might be in love.
00:43:59What?
00:44:00Last week, out of nowhere, he sent a ton of pricey gifts to Mr. Benson for his birthday.
00:44:06Have you ever seen him go out of his way for anyone like that?
00:44:10He's got to be interested in the Benson family's daughter.
00:44:17Elliot's already been to meet the head of the family.
00:44:22We must figure out how to meet the Bensons.
00:44:27Josh?
00:44:29Yes, ma'am.
00:44:30What can I do for you?
00:44:31I need you to go over to the Benson family and ask them to dinner.
00:44:35And this is a gift from my daughter-in-law.
00:44:40Please make sure it gets delivered.
00:44:47Are you saying Mrs. Bernice Palmer wants to meet us?
00:44:53Well, with Kathleen pregnant, it's about time both families got together, get together to talk about the wedding.
00:45:02Miss Benson's having a baby.
00:45:07I need to rush back and tell the madam.
00:45:11I apologise for the Palmer family's mistake.
00:45:15I hope you can overlook it.
00:45:17The madam thinks a lot of Miss Benson and sends me with a gift now that she knows.
00:45:25May I just ask which of these ladies are...
00:45:28Oh, this is my younger daughter, Kathleen.
00:45:32Right, Miss Kathleen Benson.
00:45:36This is a special gift.
00:45:40From the madam to Miss Kathleen Benson.
00:45:44Wow, it's gorgeous. I love it.
00:45:48The gift has been delivered, madam.
00:45:56The future in-laws and the younger sister looks pretty friendly.
00:46:01But the older sister looks a little bit aloof.
00:46:10Mum, what is going on?
00:46:13How can you really know someone from a few comments?
00:46:18I need to see for myself.
00:46:21I'm heading out now.
00:46:24Go and meet the Bensons on my behalf.
00:46:26You probably want to meet our Kathleen.
00:46:36What are you doing here?
00:46:38You just had to tag along.
00:46:40Grandfather wanted me to talk to the Palmers about working with them.
00:46:43and you clearly know nothing about business.
00:46:45Claire, you only get to meet Mrs. Palmer because of me.
00:46:48So don't say anything dumb later.
00:46:51Oh, no!
00:46:52Get off me, you old tag!
00:46:55Please help me.
00:46:56Back off, you old bitch!
00:46:59I don't feel real.
00:47:02Why don't you please?
00:47:03Claire, we're nearly at the restaurant.
00:47:05You're not seriously going to make us late for dinner with Mrs. Margaret Palmer with 30 old women.
00:47:14Young lady, you go on now.
00:47:16I'll be alright.
00:47:17No, we need to get you to a hospital.
00:47:19Claire, are you serious?
00:47:21Come on, forget about her.
00:47:22Let's go.
00:47:26Young lady, you're very kind.
00:47:30If only my granddaughter-in-law was like you.
00:47:33Oh, well, funny enough, I'm looking for a boyfriend.
00:47:38Joe, you're off my kiddie walk.
00:47:41Let me call you a cab.
00:47:42Actually, I just need to sit down.
00:47:45And there's a restaurant just ahead.
00:47:47If you could take me there, I'll get my grandson to pick me.
00:47:50Of course, of course, I'll take you there.
00:47:56Please pick me up from the greenhouse restaurant.
00:48:01I'll explain.
00:48:03Make sure you wow, Mrs. Palmer.
00:48:14If they support us, you'll be able to call the shots in the Benson group.
00:48:20Relax.
00:48:21I'm not dumb like Claire.
00:48:22Missing an opportunity to meet with Mrs. Margaret Palmer for some messy old lady.
00:48:28I want to see what's wrong with her.
00:48:32How could she bring a messy old lady in here?
00:48:35What are you doing?
00:48:44Why did you bring her here?
00:48:46If Mrs. Palmer sees one of the Benson family with some dirty old beggar, it won't look good for us.
00:48:53Get her out of here.
00:48:54She is not a beggar.
00:48:56And this is a restaurant.
00:48:58Anyone can come in.
00:49:02Well, well, well.
00:49:04Well, what have we here?
00:49:08Where does a messy old lady get such fancy jewellery?
00:49:11It must be stolen.
00:49:12This will be evidence.
00:49:17I'll call the police.
00:49:19Give it back.
00:49:20My grandson gave that to me.
00:49:22Kathleen, give it back to her.
00:49:24Let's not waste any more time.
00:49:26Waiter.
00:49:30Get this thief out of here.
00:49:33Get your filthy hands off me.
00:49:35Stop it.
00:49:36Grandma, you okay?
00:49:44Now you can see who's been insulting your grandmother.
00:49:49Grandmother?
00:49:50So, the grandson that old lady was searching for is him?
00:49:54Oh.
00:49:58It's you.
00:50:00I thought you were just a lowly escort, but I gave you too much credit.
00:50:04That someone like you doesn't belong in the Benson family.
00:50:08Having a con artist like you in the family is a disgrace to our name.
00:50:15Enough!
00:50:17It's clear that you're the one who doesn't belong in the Palmer family.
00:50:22Mrs. Palmer.
00:50:23Mrs. Margaret Palmer.
00:50:26Oh.
00:50:28Well, I'm really sorry.
00:50:30We appear to have had a terrible mix-up.
00:50:32Um, my eldest daughter brought the wrong people in, and, um, well, I'll have them leave immediately.
00:50:39You two are the ones who should go.
00:50:43This is the Palmer family's restaurant, and you're not welcome here.
00:50:47Mrs. Palmer.
00:50:49Are you sure you're not confused?
00:50:50Please.
00:51:01Get out!
00:51:03Now!
00:51:06Get out!
00:51:07Now!
00:51:25Oh, Elliot.
00:51:27I need to be clear today.
00:51:29I really don't like that Kathleen that you're hanging about with.
00:51:32Yes, exactly.
00:51:34With her attitude, even if she had a Palmer baby, I wouldn't let her into the family.
00:51:39Kathleen!
00:51:42You two definitely have the wrong idea.
00:51:46Kathleen isn't my girlfriend, and her kid has nothing to do with me.
00:51:50Oh, I'm so glad to hear that.
00:51:53She and her mum don't seem like nice people.
00:51:57Claire.
00:52:00Claire seems familiar.
00:52:05Wait a minute.
00:52:07She's the plumber.
00:52:09I think Claire is sweet.
00:52:12Claire, she's even more of a hassle.
00:52:15You seem to know her pretty well.
00:52:18Is there something between you two?
00:52:22Yeah, let's not talk about that now.
00:52:25Oh, Kathleen's fiancée, Zander, has been pretending to be part of the Palmer family.
00:52:37Mum, Mrs. Palmer really hates me now.
00:52:41What am I going to do?
00:52:44Darling, it's fine.
00:52:45As long as Vanda cares about you, that's all that matters.
00:52:49He'll say nice things to Mrs. Palmer, and she'll forgive us.
00:52:54That's the only way.
00:52:57It's all curseful.
00:52:59She's trying to sabotage my marriage to the Palmer family on purpose.
00:53:04Don't worry, darling.
00:53:05I'll make sure she pays for this.
00:53:17It's all here.
00:53:19No need to worry.
00:53:21Every year, on the anniversary of your mum's passing, you come to the flower field she planted.
00:53:28You pay your respects.
00:53:30You take care of the garden, and you plant these flowers.
00:53:33I won't forget.
00:53:36This is the Benson family's property.
00:53:52Who told you you could just tear it apart?
00:53:55Uh, uh, it was Mrs. Amy Benson's orders.
00:53:59Amy.
00:54:00Amy.
00:54:00Amy.
00:54:00Amy.
00:54:06You told you you could touch my mum's garden.
00:54:09Uh, well, Kathleen's been having pregnancy cravings, and she wanted oranges.
00:54:15I thought that spot there would be the best place to grow them there for her.
00:54:19That's my mum's space.
00:54:21And?
00:54:23She's gone, though.
00:54:24And those flowers are just sitting there.
00:54:29No one to enjoy them.
00:54:30What a waste.
00:54:32It's better to clear them away and grow orange trees for everyone.
00:54:35Yeah, sis.
00:54:36Home-growing oranges just tastes way better.
00:54:42You're a homewrecker.
00:54:43Who told you you could touch any of the Benson family's stuff?
00:54:46Fix the garden now!
00:54:48That's enough.
00:54:50Let go of her.
00:54:52Amy's your mother, too.
00:54:55So, show a little respect for your elders.
00:54:58Grandpa, she destroyed...
00:54:59Ah, no.
00:55:01I said it was fine.
00:55:04It's just a garden.
00:55:06It's our land.
00:55:08Don't interrupt.
00:55:09Kathleen is soon to become a palmer, and Grandpa really cares about that.
00:55:23And when Kathleen marries Andrew and has a kid to inherit the Benson estate,
00:55:30you won't be part of this family anymore.
00:55:32Why the sudden invites?
00:55:48Did you miss me?
00:55:50Hey.
00:55:52What's wrong?
00:55:54Don't ask.
00:55:54Don't ask.
00:56:00Just let me stay close.
00:56:02Hey, you don't need to say anything.
00:56:09Huh.
00:56:11Looks like the power's gone.
00:56:16I'll check it out, okay?
00:56:18No, please don't leave.
00:56:20Okay.
00:56:21I'll stick around.
00:56:32So, are you scared of the dark?
00:56:47My mum died when I was little, and my dad married my stepmom, Amy, and one day when
00:56:58dad was away, she locked me in a tiny, dark closet for two whole days.
00:57:07What about you, Grandpa?
00:57:09Didn't he take care of you?
00:57:09When mum died, no one really looked after me.
00:57:17But eventually, I did learn how to protect myself.
00:57:23I had to get strong, so no one could push me around.
00:57:26Well, from now on, I'll protect you.
00:57:28You.
00:57:29You don't dress me.
00:57:35All right.
00:57:37I believe anything you say.
00:57:40How am I supposed to take an escort's promise seriously?
00:57:43It's coming, don't worry.
00:57:52Why is there a crowd here?
00:57:55Oh, they're friends and relatives from my side of the family.
00:57:58We're here to go over the plans for Kathleen and Xander's wedding.
00:58:02A wedding?
00:58:05I haven't been told yet.
00:58:07But Mrs. Palmer's coming round soon to discuss the marriage.
00:58:17Claire, be sure to smile.
00:58:19Be polite.
00:58:20Don't say anything bad in front of Mrs. Palmer.
00:58:24But, um, Mrs. Palmer's coming round.
00:58:29Mrs. Palmer's coming round.
00:58:31Yeah, Xander, you spoke to Mrs. Palmer, she forgave us, and, well, she's offered to come over and talk about the wedding.
00:58:39She did mention to that to you, right?
00:58:42Yeah.
00:58:43Yeah, of course.
00:58:44What the hell?
00:58:45When did I ever say anything nice?
00:58:47This doesn't matter.
00:58:48Mrs. Palmer must really care about Xander.
00:58:50I mean, she's made time with her busy schedule to come here in person and discuss the wedding with us.
00:58:55It's wonderful.
00:58:56The Palmers are super exclusive.
00:58:58I mean, I'm so lucky to know Kathleen and to be able to meet Mrs. Palmer in person.
00:59:04When Xander and I are married, I'll make sure that you go round to the Palmer residence all the time.
00:59:11Oh, Kathleen, I've just remembered there's something I've left unfinished in the office.
00:59:15I must go right away.
00:59:17Xander?
00:59:19You must make time for your own wedding.
00:59:24Yeah, of course.
00:59:25On that note, actually, I have a small favour to ask you.
00:59:29My sister would really love an internship at Palmer Corp.
00:59:37Well.
00:59:38I'm sure there's something that Xander could do.
00:59:49Thank you so much, Kathleen.
00:59:51Yes, well, funny, actually.
00:59:53I've also got a little favour I'd love to discuss.
00:59:57And we, uh...
00:59:57Mrs. Palmer has a run.
01:00:02Mrs. Palmer, you may be.
01:00:04That's him.
01:00:09Grab him.
01:00:12That's him.
01:00:14Grab him.
01:00:19Mrs. Palmer, what's going on?
01:00:22What...
01:00:22What's the meaning of this?
01:00:25Xander is your grandnephew.
01:00:27Grandnephew?
01:00:29I'd really love to know when we got a relative like that.
01:00:32What was he?
01:00:35That's crazy.
01:00:37Are you saying he's not a Palmer?
01:00:41If he's not a Palmer, then who is he?
01:00:46Xander is the son of the Palmer family's driver.
01:00:50Oh, no.
01:01:00Oh, no.
01:01:03No way.
01:01:05Sorry you're being arrested for fraud and information.
01:01:08Come with us, please.
01:01:09Madam, I can explain this.
01:01:10It's a misunderstanding.
01:01:12Kathleen, honey, do something.
01:01:13I don't even know who you are.
01:01:15Kathleen!
01:01:15Kathleen!
01:01:16Our Kathleen would never be involved with the Scammer.
01:01:21Listen, we thought you'd married into wealth,
01:01:23but clearly you're with a fraud,
01:01:24and I'm taking my jewellery back.
01:01:27Yeah, me too.
01:01:42Sorry, family has to stay out here.
01:01:44What, can you not even have a little hospital smell?
01:01:53My period's late.
01:01:56Could it be?
01:01:57Congratulations, Claire.
01:01:59By the looks of this, you're about four weeks pregnant.
01:02:02I'm having a baby.
01:02:04Yes.
01:02:06Should I let him know?
01:02:10It's just a spam donation.
01:02:12Don't make it a big deal.
01:02:14Kathleen, your grandpa is still in ER.
01:02:20Where did you leave?
01:02:22I was just in a bit of pain,
01:02:24so I just went for a check-up.
01:02:26What's wrong?
01:02:27Are you okay?
01:02:28This is our only shot at keeping the fam's legacy.
01:02:32I'm okay, yeah.
01:02:33Don't worry too much.
01:02:34How did you get out?
01:02:45My dad took out a loan and bailed me out.
01:02:47If I don't pay it back within a month,
01:02:48I'm looking for four charges.
01:02:51What's that got to do with me?
01:02:52Well, you spent the money as well.
01:02:53I don't act like you're not involved, Kathleen.
01:02:54What do you really want, Zonda?
01:02:58I need money.
01:03:01Three million.
01:03:03Well, that's not everything.
01:03:06Now that lights out something, I don't see.
01:03:09Be quiet.
01:03:09Take this for now.
01:03:17But if you tell anyone anything,
01:03:20you will regret it.
01:03:21The patient had a heart attack.
01:03:41His emotions are all over the place.
01:03:43As family, you have to keep him calm
01:03:45and avoid stressing him out.
01:03:47This is all Zonda's fault.
01:03:55Grandpa, are you all right?
01:03:58I'm okay.
01:03:59I thought if Kathleen married a palmer,
01:04:03they'd work with us.
01:04:05Everything would be, you know, okay.
01:04:08But now, it's nothing but doom.
01:04:12Tom, even if Kathleen didn't marry a palmer,
01:04:15we've still got other projects to focus on.
01:04:19Well, the company is not doing very well financially.
01:04:23And we're running out of funds.
01:04:26How can that be?
01:04:27When the Benson Group is huge.
01:04:29How can it just fall apart?
01:04:31The company has been in trouble for quite a while.
01:04:35And I thought if we hurried it up and teamed with a palmer,
01:04:41that everything would be okay.
01:04:45Get out of this mess.
01:04:49Elliot has money.
01:04:52Maybe he could help us.
01:04:55Grandpa, I'm so sorry.
01:05:00I wasn't completely honest.
01:05:04Elliot doesn't have money.
01:05:06What?
01:05:07Ah, you're a liar.
01:05:09I always knew he came for a poor background.
01:05:13Enough of this arguing.
01:05:16Another scenario.
01:05:18If we're marrying to the Jenkins family.
01:05:25I heard that Liam Jenkins is a player
01:05:28and has a bunch of girlfriends.
01:05:31I don't want to marry someone like that.
01:05:34Well, you don't have to marry him if you don't want to.
01:05:38Let Claire marry him.
01:05:39All right, fine.
01:05:49Grandpa, I will marry him.
01:05:53I will marry him.
01:05:55The Benson Group is my mom's legacy.
01:05:57I can't let her efforts go to waste,
01:05:59no matter what it takes.
01:06:02You're really about it, Liam.
01:06:05Well,
01:06:06you're doing a great thing for the family.
01:06:11I am.
01:06:13It's tough on you.
01:06:27What do you look so serious?
01:06:31Is there something on your mind?
01:06:32Check out this confidentiality agreement.
01:06:39Confidentiality agreement?
01:06:41Just some things to remember
01:06:42after we break up.
01:06:47You want to break up with me?
01:06:48Don't worry.
01:06:49I'll make sure that you're well taken care of.
01:06:51Do you think I care about that?
01:06:52Don't forget the deal.
01:06:54I'm the one backing you up.
01:06:56Well, at least tell me why.
01:06:57It's not a reason.
01:06:58I've always been the one
01:07:02running this relationship.
01:07:03I can end it whenever I feel like it.
01:07:09I thought we had something real.
01:07:14There's nothing wrong.
01:07:15So, you're Claire.
01:07:36Hi.
01:07:36I didn't expect you to be so good looking.
01:07:38Perhaps this arranged marriage thing
01:07:40won't work out so bad after all.
01:07:42Aren't we here to discuss business?
01:07:43Please, I doubt you're interested in me for that.
01:07:46Let's focus on us.
01:07:48Sure.
01:07:49Go on.
01:07:50Well, firstly, you should know
01:07:51that this marriage is an agreement
01:07:53between our families.
01:07:54Don't expect me to fall for you.
01:07:56It's not a concern.
01:07:58Secondly, once we are married,
01:08:00we agree to keep out of each other's business.
01:08:03It's fine by me.
01:08:04I won't interfere with your life.
01:08:07There's something you should know, Mr Jenkins.
01:08:10Go ahead.
01:08:10I'm pregnant.
01:08:17Relax.
01:08:18The father's not in the picture.
01:08:20And I'm guessing with all the kids
01:08:22you have running around,
01:08:23you wouldn't mind having another with me,
01:08:24would you?
01:08:26Miss Benson,
01:08:27you are as bald as the gossip says.
01:08:30Perhaps we will have some fun together down the line.
01:08:32Though I can never keep up with your wild side,
01:08:35Mr Jenkins.
01:08:36Let's just stick to our separate lives, hmm?
01:08:38So that's why you're leaving me?
01:08:53Boss,
01:08:53the engagement parties for the Jenkins and Benson families
01:08:57are scheduled for next week.
01:08:58Also,
01:08:59I've checked the hospital records.
01:09:01Miss Benson is four weeks pregnant.
01:09:06She's crying my baby.
01:09:08I need to marry someone else.
01:09:11Mr Jenkins and Miss Benson,
01:09:26you two are perfect together.
01:09:28Here's to you both.
01:09:29Thank you,
01:09:30Miss Reyes.
01:09:33Miss Flores.
01:09:34This is another one of your business contacts.
01:09:37She is.
01:09:38And more than just business.
01:09:40You really know how to take advantage of every opportunity.
01:09:45I've also invited Mr Palmer.
01:09:47You know him,
01:09:48right?
01:09:48Elliot Palmer.
01:09:49Yes,
01:09:50he's a pervert.
01:09:51How can he say that?
01:09:53If he actually turns up,
01:09:54it won't just be an honour,
01:09:54it would make working with other companies a breeze.
01:10:01Don't get your hopes up.
01:10:03Elliot's the wretchedest guy around.
01:10:04He doesn't charge us any party.
01:10:06Kathleen,
01:10:07remind me.
01:10:08Who was it that upset Mrs Palmer and got thrown out of her restaurant?
01:10:12Oh,
01:10:12also pretended to be part of the family.
01:10:15If Elliot doesn't show up,
01:10:16it's because you upset Mrs Palmer.
01:10:19So what?
01:10:20Let me tell you something.
01:10:22If you think Elliot's showing up to this party,
01:10:24you're dreaming.
01:10:25Why don't you take a look at yourself and see if you're even worth it?
01:10:34Mr Jenkins,
01:10:35Ms Penson,
01:10:36Mr Palmer is here.
01:10:37Mr Palmer,
01:11:02I didn't expect to see you.
01:11:03Elliot,
01:11:06is he the Palmer Elliot?
01:11:10Don't be frozen, dear.
01:11:11Say hello to Mr Palmer.
01:11:14Mr Palmer,
01:11:15hello.
01:11:16Mr Benson,
01:11:17I was surprised to hear about your engagement.
01:11:22I had to see it for myself.
01:11:24Wait,
01:11:24so Mr Palmer,
01:11:25Claire,
01:11:25you two know each other?
01:11:27Well,
01:11:28that is great.
01:11:29Honey,
01:11:29what are you doing?
01:11:30Honey,
01:11:30are you ready?
01:11:32We run into each other a couple of times for business.
01:11:38I wouldn't say we're close.
01:11:42Well,
01:11:42it is an honor to have you here,
01:11:44Mr Palmer.
01:11:44It really does mean a lot.
01:11:46Is the Palmer group involved with the Jenkins family business?
01:11:50Yes.
01:11:50What a fantastic memory you have,
01:11:52Mr Palmer.
01:11:53Yes,
01:11:53that's a project we started working on eight months ago.
01:11:57And I'm managing that one personally.
01:11:59Okay,
01:11:59good.
01:11:59Good.
01:12:02Well,
01:12:03how about we end that partnership here?
01:12:06Excuse me.
01:12:07What did you say?
01:12:08The Palmer group is cutting ties with the Jenkins family immediately.
01:12:12No future deals.
01:12:14Can you at least tell me why?
01:12:15What did I do wrong?
01:12:16I can fix this.
01:12:17Wrong.
01:12:18Well,
01:12:19you should probably talk to your fiance about that.
01:12:21What have you done to upset Mr Palmer?
01:12:26Apologize at once.
01:12:29I misunderstood the situation.
01:12:31I see that now.
01:12:32Please don't hold it against me.
01:12:35Don't hold it against you.
01:12:37Why didn't you think this sorry excuse for an apology will fix this?
01:12:42Prayer's not one for words.
01:12:43Don't take it personally,
01:12:44Mr Palmer.
01:12:44If there's anything that we can do to set it right,
01:12:47just let us know.
01:12:48We'll do our best to fix this.
01:12:51Okay.
01:12:51Fine.
01:12:52If you're truly sorry,
01:13:02we'll drink these.
01:13:04Then maybe I'll consider forgiving you.
01:13:08Just do as Mr Palmer says.
01:13:12I'm pregnant.
01:13:13I can't drink.
01:13:14So what?
01:13:16You want to stop the Benson group from going under?
01:13:18I need you to cooperate.
01:13:22Mr Palmer,
01:13:25I raise my glass to you.
01:13:33You drew your baby's life for this clown.
01:13:36How did you know?
01:13:37I wish I had known sooner.
01:13:39What is going on here?
01:13:41What's happening between the two?
01:13:42No,
01:13:42nothing is going on.
01:13:44Then whose baby is it?
01:13:52Fine.
01:13:54If you won't say it,
01:13:55I will.
01:13:57Liam,
01:13:58your future wife
01:13:59is the mother of my child.
01:14:01Wow,
01:14:05can you believe it?
01:14:06The Benson's daughter is pregnant with Mr Palmer's baby
01:14:09and is about to marry into the Jenkins family.
01:14:11This is such a disaster.
01:14:14Is Mr Palmer here to stop the wedding?
01:14:16What is the Benson family thinking?
01:14:18Anyone with any sense would pick the Palmers over the Jenkins.
01:14:22Clare,
01:14:32why are you always the lucky one?
01:14:38Wait,
01:14:39what do you really want?
01:14:41Is it fun for you to mess with me like...
01:14:43Messing with you?
01:14:45You're all messing with me!
01:14:47Can't I just say I was wrong and go...
01:14:49I mean,
01:14:50give me a break,
01:14:50just let me leave.
01:14:51Let you leave?
01:14:52Sorry,
01:14:53do you really think Liam will still marry you if you go back now?
01:14:56If you end up marrying Liam,
01:14:57do you think I'll just back off from the Jenkins and Benson families?
01:15:00I'm doing what I must.
01:15:02Don't interfere.
01:15:03You're not marrying Liam because you want to rescue the...
01:15:06Yes,
01:15:06sir,
01:15:06what if I am?
01:15:07Well,
01:15:07if it's about saving the Benson group,
01:15:09I can help with that.
01:15:10What do you mean by that?
01:15:12Clare,
01:15:14I can help rescue the Benson group from this mess,
01:15:17but you need to...
01:15:18Don't leave him and marry me.
01:15:27Marry you?
01:15:28You can't save Benson group with Liam anymore.
01:15:30If you marry me,
01:15:32I can help you get through this on this.
01:15:39Late,
01:15:40I want your help.
01:15:41You have yet to show me your true cause.
01:15:43You just keep leading me on and now you want to marry me.
01:15:48What am I supposed to just jump at whatever you say?
01:15:50No,
01:15:50that's not what I meant.
01:15:54But this child should have a father too.
01:15:57Let me tell you,
01:15:57I don't care who the dad is.
01:15:59I never wanted a father from the start.
01:16:01This is just a big misunderstanding.
01:16:03And you know why I was choosing a guy for help.
01:16:06Don't flatter yourself.
01:16:14So everything we had meant nothing to you?
01:16:16Fine.
01:16:18Whatever.
01:16:20Why can't I just say what I feel?
01:16:32Why do I always end up fighting with him?
01:16:35Mrs. Palmer.
01:16:47Claire.
01:16:49I know everything about you and Elliot.
01:16:52From the moment I first set eyes on you,
01:16:54I've been wishing that you and Elliot would be together.
01:16:58And I...
01:17:00Oh.
01:17:02Did you two have an argument?
01:17:04Well,
01:17:06if you're feeling upset,
01:17:08just tell me and I'll take care of it.
01:17:13I said some really horrible things.
01:17:15Oh.
01:17:16We all have our moments.
01:17:19Don't stress about it.
01:17:29It's not a big deal.
01:17:30Just go inside and apologize.
01:17:34The person is here now.
01:17:36Whatever needs to be said has been said.
01:17:38And you should...
01:17:39Whatever needs to be said has been said.
01:17:41And you should was in trouble straight away.
01:17:43She thinks just because she's pregnant,
01:17:45she can behave however she wants.
01:17:48Pregnant?
01:17:48Are they talking about me?
01:17:52Is this what you think of me, Elliot?
01:17:53I was just trying to apologize.
01:17:59What do you think our next move should be?
01:18:01I think we should keep her in the wraps for now.
01:18:03Just don't tell Claire about it.
01:18:04You won't say it, but
01:18:07I know inside you're still cheering for Claire.
01:18:11We'd cheer for her.
01:18:16Grandfather,
01:18:16I'm sorry for ruining the engagement party.
01:18:21There's no need to be sorry.
01:18:23I just want you to be happy
01:18:26and marry someone you truly love.
01:18:31Claire,
01:18:32you've been messing with us the whole time.
01:18:35Mr. Palmer can totally save the Benson Group.
01:18:37You didn't need Liam for that.
01:18:39I...
01:18:40Elliot is already putting money into the Benson Group.
01:18:45Well, when did that happen?
01:18:46He didn't tell me that.
01:18:47And he's also going to have a look
01:18:49at our financial details.
01:18:55Cassie?
01:18:56Are you okay?
01:19:02I'm okay.
01:19:04Now you two are pregnant.
01:19:06I'm really looking forward
01:19:08to seeing my grandchildren.
01:19:19Claire,
01:19:22I know that
01:19:24we've had our misunderstandings,
01:19:27but
01:19:27I just really want to say today
01:19:30in front of Grandpa
01:19:31that
01:19:32I really am sorry.
01:19:37There you are, Claire.
01:19:39You two
01:19:39should be watching
01:19:41each other's backs.
01:19:44What did you do?
01:19:45There's something
01:19:48I need to show you.
01:19:51There you are, Claire.
01:19:53Go have a look.
01:20:05Just tell me
01:20:05what you want to show me.
01:20:07What I need to show you is...
01:20:09Now it's your turn to day.
01:20:25Grandma,
01:20:26where's Claire?
01:20:27Claire had something to do.
01:20:29Went home.
01:20:31I'm going to look for her.
01:20:35Elliot still cares about Claire.
01:20:37What kind of crazy is this?
01:20:41It's all your fault, Claire.
01:20:44I was supposed to inherit
01:20:46the Benson family business.
01:20:48And I was meant to marry
01:20:50into the Palmer family.
01:20:52You fucked up my whole life.
01:20:54Kathleen,
01:20:55you brought that on yourself.
01:20:56How is any of this my fault?
01:20:58If you hadn't gotten in the way.
01:21:02Kathleen,
01:21:03let me out of here.
01:21:03You can't just keep me in here.
01:21:05What's the rush?
01:21:07We're just getting started.
01:21:14Open the door.
01:21:16Open the door.
01:21:16Open the door.
01:21:17Open the door.
01:21:18Who'd have thought
01:21:19that the great Miss Benson
01:21:21would be scared of the dark?
01:21:23I'd love to see your face right now.
01:21:25He's shaking in fear.
01:21:29Kathleen,
01:21:30don't take this too far.
01:21:32If Grandpa finds out,
01:21:34then I'll just make sure
01:21:35that he doesn't find out.
01:21:37Aren't you the one
01:21:38who's always so amazing?
01:21:40Don't you just love
01:21:41to be the center of attention?
01:21:44The people know
01:21:45that you can be this pathetic.
01:21:50Well, from now on,
01:21:51I'll protect you.
01:21:52Elliot,
01:21:58Elliot,
01:21:58Elliot,
01:21:58stop dreaming.
01:22:08He's coming to rescue you.
01:22:11Just give me
01:22:12the family inheritance
01:22:14and I'll think about
01:22:15letting you out.
01:22:25What is wrong with you?
01:22:28There.
01:22:29The wine.
01:22:30Kathleen,
01:22:37if anything's happened
01:22:38to Claire or the baby,
01:22:39you'll regret it
01:22:39for the rest of your life.
01:22:50Oh, my baby!
01:22:51Oh, my baby!
01:22:53Ah!
01:22:56What's Claire on here?
01:22:57Lee,
01:22:58what's happening?
01:22:59I was just
01:23:00doing makeup
01:23:01with my sister
01:23:02and she said
01:23:04that she's the only one
01:23:06that loves the inheritance
01:23:07and then she locked me down.
01:23:10Okay.
01:23:11How could you be so cruel?
01:23:13What if something
01:23:13happened to your sister
01:23:14and the baby?
01:23:15No, no.
01:23:16It wasn't my fault.
01:23:17It was her fault.
01:23:18Mum,
01:23:19Grandpa,
01:23:20is the baby
01:23:21going to be okay?
01:23:23Claire just really
01:23:24wants the family business
01:23:25and she can have my shirt
01:23:27as long as she lets
01:23:28me and my baby
01:23:29be safe.
01:23:30Claire,
01:23:31when will this stop?
01:23:32Tom,
01:23:33you saw what happened.
01:23:34You have to stop this
01:23:35madness.
01:23:36I can't believe you.
01:23:38Stoops out now.
01:23:45What is it you find
01:23:46so amusing,
01:23:47Mr. Palmer?
01:23:48I'm just admiring
01:23:50Kathleen's little performance.
01:23:52How can you lose a baby
01:23:53when you're not even pregnant?
01:23:59What do you mean
01:24:00she's not pregnant?
01:24:02I'll give you proof.
01:24:05Xander!
01:24:08What is this scammer
01:24:10doing here?
01:24:11Kathleen,
01:24:11there's only 30 grand
01:24:12left in this account.
01:24:13How do I possibly
01:24:13pay off my debts
01:24:14with only that, huh?
01:24:15Xander?
01:24:17What's going on?
01:24:19Kathleen says
01:24:19she's pregnant.
01:24:20Is that true?
01:24:22Having a baby?
01:24:23Kathleen can't even
01:24:24have kids.
01:24:25The whole pregnancy
01:24:26thing was just
01:24:26a bloody trick
01:24:27to grab control
01:24:28of the Benson group.
01:24:29Stop, stop!
01:24:31Grandpa,
01:24:32how can you
01:24:32believe this liar?
01:24:34He's looking for
01:24:34theology.
01:24:35Exactly.
01:24:36Kathleen can't even
01:24:37have babies
01:24:37and she knows
01:24:38exactly what's going
01:24:39on with the Benson
01:24:39family's money,
01:24:41don't you?
01:24:43What does
01:24:43Benson group
01:24:44finances have
01:24:45to do with Kathleen?
01:24:46This has been
01:24:47Kathleen's plan
01:24:47all along.
01:24:48Tom,
01:24:49your beloved
01:24:50granddaughter,
01:24:50she's been
01:24:51training money
01:24:52from the Benson
01:24:53company all along.
01:24:54Kathy,
01:24:56I'm disgusted
01:24:57in you.
01:24:59I can't have a child.
01:25:02You said
01:25:03that whoever
01:25:04had a child
01:25:05first would get
01:25:06the business
01:25:07and what am I
01:25:08supposed to do?
01:25:10That's enough.
01:25:11You're scouting
01:25:13you're scouting
01:25:14in Bersley?
01:25:15Come here with us.
01:25:16No, no, no.
01:25:18Mommy, no.
01:25:19Mommy!
01:25:20No!
01:25:20Mommy!
01:25:21Mommy!
01:25:29Sweetheart,
01:25:30I've heard it all.
01:25:32How do you feel?
01:25:33Are you okay?
01:25:34Yeah, I feel
01:25:35shaken up,
01:25:36but I'm fine.
01:25:37Well, don't stress.
01:25:39Kathleen's already
01:25:40locked up.
01:25:42She can't hurt you
01:25:43anymore.
01:25:43I knew it.
01:25:45There's definitely
01:25:46something going on
01:25:47between Claire
01:25:47and Elliot.
01:25:48Yes.
01:25:50Yes, you were right.
01:25:52When Elliot
01:25:53turns up,
01:25:54if he doesn't
01:25:55treat you right,
01:25:56I'll make
01:25:57sure he does.
01:25:58What are you
01:26:13waiting for
01:26:13on invitation?
01:26:15Look,
01:26:16I get that you're

01:26:24You have nothing
01:26:24else you want
01:26:25to say to me?
01:26:26Wait.
01:26:28Well, I think
01:26:29every kid deserves
01:26:30a dad,
01:26:31so if you're
01:26:31not up for it...
01:26:32I'm going to be
01:26:33the best dad
01:26:33in the world.
01:26:49Hey, everyone.

01:26:53got engaged,
01:26:54but then broke
01:26:54it off with Mr. Jenkins.

01:26:56Ms. Benton,

01:27:00How did that
01:27:01happen?
01:27:01There are rumours
01:27:02that your sister

01:27:18There are rumours
01:27:19that Mr. Benton
01:27:20has really strict rules
01:27:21about his inheritance.
01:27:22How did you meet
01:27:23those requirements?
01:27:24What's your connection
