00:00:00Bradley, I'm pregnant.
00:00:02You're going to be your father.
00:00:05What's she doing here?
00:00:07What do you think?
00:00:08No need to hide anymore.
00:00:10I'm leaving you.
00:00:12We're Catherine.
00:00:13Unlike you, I'm young and rich.
00:00:16I can give Bradley what he deserves.
00:00:18Catherine hired me to be vice president in her family's hospital.
00:00:21She's also way better in bed.
00:00:23What's that?
00:00:30She's pregnant.
00:00:31What?
00:00:33She must be faking it to trap you.
00:00:36No, it's me.
00:00:36He's so desperate.
00:00:38Give it back.
00:00:39Stop.
00:00:40Give it back.
00:00:41Stop.
00:00:41Give it back.
00:00:41Stop.
00:00:41Stop.
00:00:42Stop.
00:00:42Stop.
00:01:00What happened?
00:01:12The baby.
00:01:13Is the baby okay?
00:01:17I'm so sorry.
00:01:21We've lost the baby.
00:01:25I'm so sorry.
00:01:26We're right here, sweetheart.
00:01:33We're right here.
00:01:42I won't let Bradley and that woman get away with this.
00:01:47I'm ready to come back, Dan.
00:01:49Well, revenge won't heal the heart.
00:01:51This isn't about revenge.
00:01:53This is about holding them accountable.
00:01:55Are you sure you're ready for this?
00:01:57I've been preparing for years, Mom.
00:01:59Okay.
00:02:00But there is a condition.
00:02:07I have an important announcement.
00:02:09My daughter, Mia Gerber, will be the new CEO of Gerber Corporation.
00:02:14Is Mia ready for such a big role?
00:02:16I've been concealing my identity to go undercover within the industry.
00:02:19I've learned our competitors from the inside.
00:02:22Trust me.
00:02:24I'm more than ready.
00:02:25I'm more than ready for this.
00:02:27I'm more than ready for this.
00:02:27Furthermore, Mia will marry Joshua Lane from Lane Holdings.
00:02:34Mia will marry Joshua Lane from Lane Holdings.
00:02:39There is a condition.
00:02:41You're going to have to marry Joshua Lane, the heir of Lane Holdings.
00:02:46Mia's never even met this guy before.
00:02:48It's a strategic alliance, Noah.
00:02:52It's what's best for our families and the company.
00:02:55I'll do it.
00:02:59I'll marry Joshua Lane if that's what it takes.
00:03:01And this alliance will strengthen our company and secure our future.
00:03:17Isn't Joshua Lane famous for being called the Little Ruffles?
00:03:21That's what I heard.
00:03:23I think it'll be good for the company.
00:03:24I don't think it'll be good for the new CEO.
00:03:26I don't think it'll be good for the new CEO.
00:03:56That's the fifth girl you've turned down tonight.
00:03:59Hey, I heard you're getting hitched to Mia Gerber.
00:04:01Why didn't you turn her down?
00:04:03This marriage is what my parents want.
00:04:05Couldn't care less about her.
00:04:06Oh, come on.
00:04:07She's the heiress to the Gerber Corporation.
00:04:09There must be some perks to her.
00:04:11Perks or not, she'll learn quickly that I'm not one to be messed with.
00:04:14Gonna give her a hard time, huh?
00:04:16Let's just say that she's got something coming.
00:04:18Do you, Joshua Lane, take Mia Gerber for your lawfully wedded wife?
00:04:34I do.
00:04:37And you, Mia Gerber, do you take Joshua Lane for your lawfully wedded husband?
00:04:42I do.
00:04:42You may now kiss the bride.
00:04:55Let's get one thing straight, Mia.
00:05:10This marriage is a show for our family and the rest of the world.
00:05:13Don't expect any affection from me.
00:05:16Understood.
00:05:16My parents want to set up a dinner with us.
00:05:36My assistant will set it up.
00:05:38She can coordinate schedules with my assistant.
00:05:40Done.
00:05:45Oh.
00:05:46Joshua has always been so distant with people.
00:06:06Unlike Alex here, who's so popular and charismatic.
00:06:11You should see all the women that can't stop chasing.
00:06:13Well, at least I don't have to worry if Alex can give me a grandson.
00:06:20But I wonder, Joshua, if you can even warm up enough to give me a child.
00:06:27We need an heir, after all.
00:06:28Eleanor, that's enough.
00:06:31I'm just saying, perhaps Alex is a better fit to lead Lane Holders.
00:06:36Quite the contrary, Josh was very passionate, especially in the bedroom.
00:06:44No doubt that you'll have that heir soon.
00:06:50Okay.
00:06:50For your information, passion is not in my DNA, nor does it align with my personal brand.
00:07:00But still, thank you for standing up for me.
00:07:05I just didn't appreciate your stepmom's attitude.
00:07:07Get the campaign ready.
00:07:17I want that jerk out.
00:07:18Asa.
00:07:22Noah, hey.
00:07:24I need a favor.
00:07:25You're right.
00:07:31Alex and Eleanor Lane are behind a smear campaign against Joshua.
00:07:35Blue Diamond PR is already involved.
00:07:37What agency are we using?
00:07:39We're still deciding.
00:07:41Bids are open for this year's contract.
00:07:43Perfect.
00:07:45I have a plan.
00:07:46I'm offering the Gerber Corporation's annual PR budget.
00:07:53It's one of the largest in the industry.
00:07:55That's an enticing offer, Miss Gerber.
00:07:58What do you ask of me in return?
00:08:01I need you to withdraw from any campaign against Joshua Lane.
00:08:04I don't mind, I'll cover the cancellation fee.
00:08:12You have a deal.
00:08:13Well, the Gerber Corporation account is too good to pass up.
00:08:18There's a little more.
00:08:20I need you to spread the word.
00:08:22Any PR firm that goes against Joshua Lane
00:08:25will be blacklisted from the Gerber Corporation
00:08:28and our allies.
00:08:29You got it.
00:08:30No one in this industry will be stupid enough
00:08:33to fight against the Gerber Corporation.
00:08:36Wonderful.
00:08:37Okay.
00:08:38Looking forward to a fruitful partnership.
00:08:43I have evidence of Alex's scheme against you.
00:08:49But don't worry, I've already taken care of it.
00:08:53I always knew Eleanor and Alex to be after my position.
00:08:56I just didn't expect Alex to be this bold.
00:08:59How do you know about this?
00:09:01Alex struck me as opportunistic.
00:09:03A smear campaign is the easiest way
00:09:04to sway the shareholders' opinion.
00:09:05and Eleanor's background in PR
00:09:08made this move predictable.
00:09:10You're more perceptive than I thought.
00:09:13Why are you helping me?
00:09:17Our family's alliance is crucial.
00:09:19Protecting you means protecting the Gerber Corporation.
00:09:22It's all business.
00:09:26Business, right?
00:09:27Well, in that case,
00:09:29I should help you with your beef
00:09:30with Catherine and Bradley, right?
00:09:34How did you know about that?
00:09:37Didn't expect me to enter into the marriage
00:09:39without doing background checks.
00:09:40I just don't get
00:09:41what the big deal about your ex is.
00:09:43I mean,
00:09:44he cheated on you.
00:09:45So what?
00:09:49She must be faking it to trap you.
00:09:51How dare you?
00:09:55You had no right
00:09:57to dig into my past like that.
00:09:59I can take care of myself.
00:10:04What just happened?
00:10:09To your new position
00:10:11as Senior VP.
00:10:14And it's all thanks
00:10:15to my help, of course.
00:10:16Absolutely.
00:10:17You're my lucky charm, honey.
00:10:21Imagine if I'd stayed with Mia.
00:10:27Poor and powerless.
00:10:28That's all she ever was.
00:10:29She's a joke.
00:10:30A stepping stone at best.
00:10:33You're by my side.
00:10:34We are unstoppable.
00:10:46Catherine's Hospital
00:10:47is resisting our acquisition.
00:10:49Bradley has the new Senior VP
00:10:51he is leading the pushback.
00:10:53Do they know I'm the CEO yet?
00:10:55No, as per your request.
00:10:57Perfect.
00:10:58Keep at it.
00:11:03Now how do I pull this off?
00:11:05There are gaps in Mia's medical record
00:11:17right after her breakup.
00:11:18These are from the Gerber Corporation's
00:11:20own hospital.
00:11:21Only someone higher up
00:11:22from within can access it.
00:11:30I want to know what happened to Mia
00:11:31during that gap,
00:11:32after the breakup.
00:11:33Even if I know,
00:11:35why would I tell you?
00:11:36Mia helped me,
00:11:37but unless I understand
00:11:38that part of the puzzle,
00:11:40I won't be able to return her fate.
00:11:42Do you care for her?
00:11:45You don't dislike her?
00:11:48No, Mia deserves someone
00:11:49who truly loves her.
00:11:51Not you.
00:11:53She's a grown woman.
00:11:54She knows what she wants.
00:11:56Nobody gets to tell her what she deserves.
00:11:57Especially not you.
00:11:58You can choose not to share the information,
00:12:09but you won't be helping her.
00:12:12Your choice.
00:12:13All right, look.
00:12:19If you have to know,
00:12:21unfortunately,
00:12:23Mia had a miscarriage
00:12:24because of an accident
00:12:26involving Bradley and Catherine.
00:12:27How are you feeling?
00:12:50It's none of your business.
00:12:52Not that you would know
00:12:53what that means.
00:12:55I'm sorry for overstepping
00:12:56and being insensitive.
00:12:59I learned about your miscarriage.
00:13:01I had no idea.
00:13:02You didn't know?
00:13:04That doesn't excuse my behavior.
00:13:06I apologize.
00:13:08I may have overreacted.
00:13:10You were hurting.
00:13:11That's understandable.
00:13:12So you're not a robot
00:13:14like everyone says you are?
00:13:16Of course I'm not.
00:13:18Who says that?
00:13:19Everyone.
00:13:20Your family,
00:13:21your friends,
00:13:22your co-workers,
00:13:24enemies.
00:13:25I even heard the maids
00:13:26joking about it the other day.
00:13:29Fire them all.
00:13:30No, no.
00:13:31No, it's okay.
00:13:33They're allowed to joke.
00:13:34They've been doing a wonderful job.
00:13:36Besides,
00:13:37I think you should
00:13:38talk like this.
00:13:40It suits you.
00:13:41It's not funny.
00:13:45I...
00:13:46It's late.
00:13:49I'm going to bed.
00:13:52Okay.
00:13:54Good night.
00:14:01Talk like this.
00:14:11Go ahead with the plan.
00:14:16Short the stock
00:14:17of Catherine's company.
00:14:18I want to see them bleed.
00:14:20Mia,
00:14:30you need to see this.
00:14:32The stock of Catherine's hospital
00:14:33has been shortened dramatically.
00:14:35They're on the verge
00:14:35of bankruptcy.
00:14:36Just a week?
00:14:38How is this possible?
00:14:39Seems like a coordinated attack.
00:14:41Someone powerful
00:14:41is behind this.
00:14:45Joshua.
00:14:46Joshua.
00:14:46Joshua.
00:14:46Joshua.
00:14:46Joshua.
00:14:46Joshua.
00:14:46Joshua.
00:14:46Joshua.
00:14:46Joshua.
00:14:50Did you short Catherine's stock?
00:14:54Yes, I did.
00:14:55Why?
00:14:56Strictly for business.
00:14:58To protect our family's alliances.
00:14:59Your enemies are my enemies now.
00:15:02Thank you, Joshua.
00:15:03I just did what's necessary.
00:15:04Just like you do.
00:15:05Now to pay a little visit
00:15:06to Bradley and Catherine.
00:15:07Bradley,
00:15:17what are we going to do?
00:15:18They're taking everything.
00:15:20I can't believe this is happening.
00:15:23As of now,
00:15:24this hospital is under
00:15:25Gerber Corporation's control.
00:15:27Yes,
00:15:27the Gerber Corporation.
00:15:29As in my family's company.
00:15:30Mia Gerber?
00:15:31I thought you were
00:15:32Mia Whitlock.
00:15:33Whitlock was just a name
00:15:34I used
00:15:35to conceal my identity.
00:15:36You betrayed
00:15:37and hurt my wife.
00:15:39Now you're facing
00:15:39the consequences.
00:15:41I've resigned.
00:15:41You can't touch me.
00:15:43Resignation or not, Bradley,
00:15:44your career is over.
00:15:45I've seen to it
00:15:46that everyone in this industry
00:15:47won't touch you
00:15:48after what you've done.
00:15:50Mia,
00:15:51you know that
00:15:52I never meant to hurt you.
00:15:54This hospital
00:15:55is all that I have left.
00:15:56Please.
00:15:57No.
00:15:59That day that I fell,
00:16:01you stood there
00:16:02and watched.
00:16:03You made your decision then.
00:16:05Mia,
00:16:05can we talk?
00:16:06I know I hurt you deeply.
00:16:07I just want to apologize
00:16:08to make things right.
00:16:24Mia,
00:16:25I'm truly sorry
00:16:26about everything.
00:16:28I dreamt about you
00:16:29and the baby
00:16:30every day.
00:16:31I just couldn't bring myself
00:16:32to tell you this
00:16:33after the accident
00:16:34because I felt
00:16:35so ashamed of myself.
00:16:36Your apology
00:16:37can't undo
00:16:38what's been done,
00:16:39Bradley.
00:16:39I know.
00:16:40I just,
00:16:41I need you to know
00:16:42that I will always
00:16:44care about you
00:16:45deeply.
00:16:45You're really like they say.
00:17:00Tall,
00:17:02handsome,
00:17:03powerful.
00:17:03You know I can make you
00:17:12a very happy man.
00:17:17I do not engage
00:17:18with women
00:17:19who have no shame.
00:17:22Get your hands off me.
00:17:23Catherine manipulated me
00:17:29but now I realize
00:17:30she's nothing compared to you.
00:17:32We could start over.
00:17:33With your family's resources
00:17:34I could help you
00:17:35grow the business.
00:17:36We could be parents again.
00:17:38Give us a chance.
00:17:40You know,
00:17:41if I wasn't 100% sure before,
00:17:43I am now.
00:17:45You're a piece
00:17:45of human trash.
00:17:48You're right.
00:17:49I'm Derek.
00:17:50But think about
00:17:50all the good memories
00:17:51we have.
00:17:52Think about more to come.
00:17:53Just say.
00:17:54Let go.
00:17:54Mia, don't.
00:17:55Bradley.
00:17:55I'm serious.
00:17:56Don't.
00:17:56Get the fuck out of here.
00:18:00Get the fuck out of here.
00:18:07I should have intervened
00:18:09before Bradley could touch you.
00:18:10It's fine, Joshua.
00:18:12Thank you for
00:18:13stepping in.
00:18:14Thank you for
00:18:14everything.
00:18:20Yeah, I follow through
00:18:21with all my business plans.
00:18:23Right.
00:18:24Yeah.
00:18:25The business plan.
00:18:27You know,
00:18:27you call me your wife
00:18:28for the first time.
00:18:30Don't look into it
00:18:31too much.
00:18:33Let's go.
00:18:34Actually,
00:18:34you know what?
00:18:36Now that all the revenge
00:18:37is done,
00:18:39I think I want to
00:18:39take some time alone
00:18:40to
00:18:41figure out my feelings.
00:18:44I understand.
00:18:51They've destroyed everything.
00:18:53We can't let them
00:18:54get away with this.
00:18:55What if we take
00:18:59Mia?
00:19:02A ransom would help us
00:19:03but hurt Mia.
00:19:05Yes.
00:19:07Abducting
00:19:07Mia Gerber.
00:19:09Let's see how
00:19:10Joshua Lane reacts then.
00:19:12But how will we get to Mia?
00:19:13I know that she always
00:19:15goes to this one spot
00:19:16alone.
00:19:17From what I know about her,
00:19:19she must be there right now.
00:19:20She must be there right now.
00:19:22She must be there right now.
00:19:23She must be there right now.
00:19:23She must be there right now.
00:19:24She must be there right now.
00:19:25She must be there right now.
00:19:25She must be there right now.
00:19:26She must be there right now.
00:19:26She must be there right now.
00:19:27She must be there right now.
00:19:27She must be there right now.
00:19:28She must be there right now.
00:19:28She must be there right now.
00:19:29She must be there right now.
00:19:29She must be there right now.
00:19:30She must be there right now.
00:19:30She must be there right now.
00:19:31She must be there right now.
00:19:31She must be there right now.
00:19:32She must be there right now.
00:19:33She must be there right now.
00:19:33You
00:20:03Hey!
00:20:19Hey!
00:20:21Hey!
00:20:23Help!
00:20:33Thought you could get rid of us, Mia?
00:20:37You and Joshua will regret ever crossing us.
00:20:42Don't bring him into this, you bitch!
00:20:59That's for talking back to me.
00:21:03Look at you.
00:21:05Just as pathetic as the day you fell.
00:21:08Of course I could have saved you.
00:21:11But why would I?
00:21:12You and your baby are worth nothing.
00:21:21Joshua Lane?
00:21:23Listen.
00:21:24We have Mia Gerber.
00:21:26You want her back?
00:21:27Get ready with a hefty ransom.
00:21:29I'll pay the ransom.
00:21:31But listen to me clearly.
00:21:33I will hunt you down and you'll wish you never crossed me!
00:21:43Based on the footage from Mia's car camera, it seems Bradley and Catherine are behind this.
00:21:48These are the possible locations where Mia can be.
00:21:53This one.
00:22:04Mia.
00:22:07I've got you.
00:22:08I've got you.
00:22:09Let's get you out of here.
00:22:10I've got you.
00:22:11Let's get you out of here.
00:22:12Let's get you out of here.
00:22:13To be the last one.
00:22:14Let's get you out of here.
00:22:17This one.
00:22:19Down.
00:22:20Down.
00:22:21Go The Wind.
00:22:22Up!
00:22:23Down.
00:22:24Down.
00:22:25Down.
00:22:26Down.
00:22:28Down.
00:22:29Down.
00:22:30Down.
00:22:31Down.
00:22:32Down.
00:22:33Down.
00:22:35Down.
00:22:36Down.
00:22:37Down.
00:22:38Down.
00:22:39Down.
00:22:40Down.
00:22:41It's not worth it.
00:23:11Made you some soup.
00:23:35It's very unique.
00:23:38What is this?
00:23:40My mom's recipe.
00:23:42Before she passed away, she used to make it for me when I was sick.
00:23:45Thought it might comfort me.
00:23:48Must have made it wrong.
00:23:49It's wonderful.
00:23:51I don't know how to thank you enough.
00:23:53It's nothing.
00:23:55I just did what I had to do.
00:23:59Toshul,
00:24:01is this still just a marriage of convenience for you?
00:24:05Excuse me, Mr. and Mrs. Lane.
00:24:08The guest has arrived.
00:24:09Her name is Susie Harper.
00:24:11Susie's back?
00:24:15Oh, I've missed you so much.
00:24:22Susie, it's been ages.
00:24:30When's the last time we saw each other?
00:24:32Four years ago, before I went abroad.
00:24:35It's been too long.
00:24:37Welcome back, Susie.
00:24:38I came back just for you.
00:24:41Oh, there's so much...
00:24:42Hey.
00:24:43Uh, Susie, this is my wife, Mia.
00:24:48Um, Mia, this is Susie, an old friend of mine.
00:24:52So, you're the one Joshua had to marry.
00:24:55Oh, Susie, that's enough.
00:24:58Joshua and I have a special bond, you know?
00:25:02We've been friends since, like, forever.
00:25:05He means a lot to me.
00:25:07I want him to be happy.
00:25:09I think we all want that.
00:25:11Do you?
00:25:12Joshua and I talk often over the phone.
00:25:15He confides in me.
00:25:17I'm one of the few he truly trusts.
00:25:19He mentioned he was quite unhappy about the marriage.
00:25:22Right.
00:25:23Uh, well, it seems like you two have a lot to catch up on.
00:25:27So, I'll leave you to it.
00:25:34Susie, why would you say those things?
00:25:37I told you I have doubts before the wedding.
00:25:40Not since then.
00:25:41Joshua, you're clearly unhappy.
00:25:43I was just speaking up for you.
00:25:46I don't need you to look out for me.
00:25:49I'm sorry.
00:25:51I just...
00:25:53I was trying to help, since you clearly didn't want the marriage.
00:25:59I don't mind it now.
00:26:01Do you like her?
00:26:03She's fine.
00:26:06This means I still have a chance.
00:26:09Joshua.
00:26:11If I had stayed by your side, you never would have had to marry a complete stranger like Mia Gerber.
00:26:17I'm sure it hasn't been pleasant.
00:26:20Now that I'm back, you can always talk to me.
00:26:23Susie, you're a great friend.
00:26:26Of course.
00:26:27I'll always be there for you.
00:26:36How's it going?
00:26:38It's this marriage.
00:26:40It's Joshua.
00:26:41He's like a shadow.
00:26:42He's always there, but never really close.
00:26:47You deserve someone who can give you all the love and appreciation you need.
00:26:52Remember, if you ever need anything, I'm here.
00:26:56Thank you, Noah.
00:27:00How can I live without you?
00:27:05I can't live without you.
00:27:06I can't live without you.
00:27:27How can I live without you?
00:27:28I'll do everything to protect you, Mia.
00:27:45Joshua!
00:27:49We can't be like this forever.
00:27:50We have to talk.
00:27:51Why don't you talk to Noah?
00:27:54Seems like you have plenty to say to him.
00:27:56I don't even know what that means.
00:27:58There's nothing between Noah and me.
00:28:00You and Susie, on the other hand.
00:28:03What?
00:28:05Whatever you think, I don't care.
00:28:06I don't care.
00:28:23What's he doing here?
00:28:27Look, I'm here to deliver some documents to Mia.
00:28:37And if you ever hurt her, just know that I will protect her at all costs.
00:28:44And what exactly have you done to protect her?
00:28:47Seems like all talk with no action.
00:28:49What are you two doing?
00:28:53What's going on here?
00:28:54Joshua, why are you acting so abrasion?
00:28:56This is ridiculous.
00:28:57You invite him into our house just to talk to him?
00:28:59I didn't invite...
00:29:00Joshua!
00:29:02Well, I'm sorry, Mia.
00:29:03I didn't mean to cause any rift between you two.
00:29:04It wasn't my intention.
00:29:05It's fine.
00:29:07Why are you here?
00:29:08I'm here to protect you and the company.
00:29:10I suspect that Dwayne Kaiser has been conspiring with Melody Healthcare.
00:29:17Is that Dwayne?
00:29:19And the CEO of Melody Healthcare.
00:29:25This plan is our game changer.
00:29:28What about Melody Healthcare?
00:29:30They're our biggest ramp.
00:29:32They're going in a completely different direction.
00:29:33We are way ahead of them.
00:29:36And how do you know, though?
00:29:38The CEO approached me the other day.
00:29:40He tried to get some information from me, but I flipped it and got some information from him.
00:29:45Like, I'd be trying my own company.
00:29:46You'd be a fool to think that.
00:29:48Right. Of course, Dwayne.
00:29:50Let's go ahead with the plan.
00:29:51See? He's fine.
00:29:52I don't know. There's something strange about him. I can't put my finger on it, but just keep your eyes open, okay?
00:30:09I will.
00:30:14Mia suspected, but I made her trust me now.
00:30:18Let's go ahead and move forward with the plan.
00:30:21Excellent. Once we execute the strategy, the Gerbers will be blindsided.
00:30:27Melody Healthcare will be the number one.
00:30:29Mia Gerber will be out of the company, and I'll be the number one.
00:30:42How did they get ahead of us?
00:30:44This was our strategy.
00:30:46Where's Dwayne?
00:30:47He's outside.
00:31:01Melody Healthcare just announced their new AI-generated online psychiatric care.
00:31:06The similarity of the details to ours is...uncanny.
00:31:11I don't know.
00:31:13We kept everything under wraps.
00:31:15They must have developed this independently, Mia.
00:31:19You're just too young.
00:31:20You're not experienced enough in this business world.
00:31:23This stuff happens.
00:31:25I'm experienced enough to know that this is not a coincidence.
00:31:29And I don't need you to tell me what I do and do not know.
00:31:32You can move.
00:31:44Why do you look so sullen all the time?
00:31:50Doesn't look good on you.
00:31:52Wow.
00:31:54Thanks for the comfort.
00:31:59Dammit, why did I have to say that like that?
00:32:04Miss Gerber, an emergency board meeting has been called.
00:32:08What?
00:32:15We need to talk about the leadership of this company.
00:32:18It is clear that Mia's recent decisions, well, they've been questionable.
00:32:24Acquiring Catherine Finney's hospital was a big misstep.
00:32:32Now, Melody's healthcare is outpacing us.
00:32:35Mia, I'm sorry, but you're too young and inexperienced to be in this role.
00:32:40I believe under my leadership, our profits have already increased by 20% compared to last year.
00:32:48That's due to the overall market trend, not because of your leadership.
00:32:53My strategies have been more than effective.
00:32:57The Finley acquisition has potential long-term benefits, and our growth, by the way, is not just a fluke.
00:33:02This company, this board needs a leader with experience and vision, not someone learning on the job.
00:33:11As a senior VP, on behalf of all the employees with Gerber Corporation, we support Mia.
00:33:16I also have evidence that Dwayne Kaiser has been conspiring with Melody Healthcare to undermine the company.
00:33:23I also have evidence that Dwayne Kaiser has been conspiring with Melody Healthcare to undermine the company.
00:33:31What is this? What are you doing?
00:33:34These are communications between Dwayne and Melody Healthcare.
00:33:37He leaked our strategy.
00:33:39You're fired, Dwayne. Effective immediately.
00:33:45I've been with you since you founded the company.
00:33:47All these years, I'm never the CEO, but you give it to your daughter?
00:33:50I've always known you were ambitious, but I never thought you would stoop this load.
00:33:55Your lack of trustworthiness is why you were never CEO.
00:33:59We built this company on integrity and trust.
00:34:03Values you clearly lack.
00:34:06Security, escort Mr. Kaiser out.
00:34:10Wait.
00:34:21Mia, we're so proud of you.
00:34:24You've really handled the crisis well.
00:34:27You truly are a go-go.
00:34:33Noah, I can't thank you enough.
00:34:36Of course. You know I'd do anything for you.
00:34:38You know, I never asked, but how did you get your hands on those documents?
00:34:43It all started with an anonymous tip.
00:34:46Someone delivered photos of Dwayne meeting with the owner of Melody Healthcare,
00:34:50and I intercepted the tip.
00:34:51This is your schedule for the week.
00:34:52And what's this?
00:34:53Um, seems to be about Mr. Kaiser.
00:34:54Okay, I'll take that too.
00:34:55Thanks.
00:34:56Anonymous.
00:34:57Who would do that?
00:34:58I don't know.
00:34:59But, uh, the photos led me to dig deeper, and eventually I found clear evidence of his betrayal.
00:35:05Can I see the photos?
00:35:06Can I see the photos?
00:35:07I think I might know who's behind this.
00:35:08But I need to confirm.
00:35:09Uh...
00:35:10Can I see the profile?
00:35:12How did it help, um...
00:35:13how did he other sites, heis, uh...
00:35:14They also found YouTube.
00:35:15One of them has the Advanced
00:35:27происходит.
00:35:28Uh, for you, if you will!
00:35:30I think I might know who's behind this, but I need to confirm.
00:35:40Ethan, I need to talk to you about these photos.
00:35:43Is this you? In the reflection?
00:35:45Were you following Dwayne?
00:35:47Yeah, it's me.
00:35:48Joshua asked me to keep an eye on Dwayne.
00:35:51He's had his suspicions about Dwayne's loyalty for a while.
00:35:54We then delivered the photos.
00:35:56Mr. Lane, what a surprise.
00:36:00Should I tell Ms. Lane you're here?
00:36:02No need to.
00:36:06Why couldn't Joshua just tell me about his suspicions?
00:36:10Joshua's a...
00:36:12He's a complicated man.
00:36:14He means well, but he struggles with expressing himself.
00:36:17He's never gone through such steps for anyone before Mia.
00:36:19This must mean he cares about you.
00:36:23He could just talk to me next time.
00:36:25Well, Joshua has his ways.
00:36:28He might not show it, but he cares deeply.
00:36:30I just ask that you...
00:36:32Don't hurt him.
00:36:35No.
00:36:38Your loyal friend, Ethan.
00:36:47Joshua, I need to talk to you.
00:36:50It's about Dwayne Kaiser and Melody Healthcare.
00:36:52What about it?
00:36:53I know you sent Ethan to follow Dwayne.
00:36:56Why didn't you just talk to me?
00:36:58It just seemed like the best course of action at the time.
00:37:00Joshua, is there more to this marriage than the alliance?
00:37:05Did you do it because...
00:37:06No, no.
00:37:07It's nothing like that.
00:37:08I just couldn't have my wife being voted out as CEO on paper.
00:37:12It would look bad for me.
00:37:13So it's all about appearances?
00:37:16Yes, Mia.
00:37:17It's all it ever is.
00:37:18We agreed to a business arrangement.
00:37:21Joshua, I'm so tired of this.
00:37:23Of living in a fantasy where I never actually get to know you.
00:37:27I'm more than just a tool for business advancement or keeping up appearances.
00:37:32I want a divorce.
00:37:39I want a divorce.
00:37:44You sure about this?
00:37:47I deserve something real in my life, Joshua.
00:37:50Not this facade.
00:37:53I deserve to be more than just a business arrangement in somebody's life.
00:37:57I want genuine happiness.
00:38:00I understand.
00:38:01If that's what you want.
00:38:07Joshua, please.
00:38:11Let's proceed with the divorce.
00:38:31Joshua, what are you doing to yourself?
00:38:54Mia.
00:38:57Mia?
00:38:59Here, don't leave.
00:39:00Don't leave.
00:39:01You're drunk.
00:39:01Please, help me take him to his car.
00:39:04No.
00:39:06I'll take him to my place.
00:39:07He shouldn't be alone.
00:39:10Okay.
00:39:12Let's go.
00:39:12Mia.
00:39:22Mia.
00:39:23Mia.
00:39:32Morning, Josh.
00:39:33Here, drink this.
00:39:35You've had quite a night.
00:39:38Susie.
00:39:40Where am I?
00:39:42This is my apartment.
00:39:44Nothing bad happened.
00:39:46I also drove your car back here.
00:39:48How did I get here?
00:39:50You were really drunk.
00:39:52I didn't think you should be alone.
00:39:54Josh, what happened?
00:39:57It's over between me and Mia.
00:39:58We're getting a divorce.
00:40:06Maybe it was never meant to be.
00:40:08You deserve someone who understands and loves you.
00:40:28No, I can't do this, Susie.
00:40:42Why?
00:40:43I have always loved you.
00:40:46Now that you and Mia are getting a divorce, we can finally be together.
00:40:50Susie, you are a dear friend and like a little sister.
00:40:55It can't be anything more.
00:40:56I'm sorry.
00:41:00Do you really love that Mia Kerber?
00:41:04Uh.
00:41:06Yes, as a matter of fact, I do.
00:41:10I need to go tell her.
00:41:12Now.
00:41:26Your call is before we get to an automatic appointment.
00:41:38No, uh, hey.
00:41:56I've decided to divorce Joshua.
00:42:00Are you okay?
00:42:02I'm fine.
00:42:03It's just, it's for the best.
00:42:06There's something I need to tell you.
00:42:07Listen.
00:42:08Sorry.
00:42:10It's the hospital.
00:42:11Hello?
00:42:12What?
00:42:13What happened?
00:42:14Is he okay?
00:42:17Okay, yeah, I'll be right there.
00:42:19What's wrong?
00:42:20It's Joshua.
00:42:21He's been in an accident.
00:42:22Excuse me.
00:42:30Excuse me.
00:42:31I'm here for Joshua Lane.
00:42:39Joshua.
00:42:40Miss Kerber?
00:42:43Yeah?
00:42:44We found that Mr. Lane was attempting to call you when the accident occurred.
00:42:50It's somebody's fault.
00:42:53It was nobody's fault.
00:42:55It was an accident.
00:42:56But right now, he needs you.
00:42:59Do your best to help him wake up, will you?
00:43:00I won't leave you, Joshua.
00:43:09You remember that soup you made me?
00:43:12It meant the world to me.
00:43:15Whenever you get better, I'm gonna make you that soup.
00:43:20Because I know it was your mom's recipe.
00:43:24It was those little moments with you.
00:43:27You know, whenever we would wake up and come out of our rooms and see each other in the morning,
00:43:34sometimes that was the happiest part of my day.
00:43:45Please come back to me.
00:43:46This is all your fault, Mia.
00:43:53You drove him to this.
00:43:56You hurt him.
00:43:57And now, look what's happened to him.
00:44:07Mia, we have a problem.
00:44:10Eleanor and Alex are plotting to make Alex the new CEO while Joshua's in a coma.
00:44:14Now even Joshua's father's been convinced.
00:44:16So they're using Joshua's condition to their advantage.
00:44:19I won't stand for it.
00:44:21What's the plan?
00:44:22I'm meeting with Mr. Lange.
00:44:24He's a key shareholder of Lane Holdings.
00:44:26His voice can sway their opinion.
00:44:30Thank you for agreeing to meet me on such short notice, Mr. Lange.
00:44:33I've always been curious about the famous Mia Gerber.
00:44:36After all, you're the one who led Gerber Corporation to the next level.
00:44:40You too, pal.
00:44:40I'm merely stating a fact.
00:44:42Not everyone in the second generation is as capable as you.
00:44:46So, tell me, why do you want to see me?
00:44:50Is it about Alex being the new CEO?
00:44:53You're a wise man, Mr. Lange.
00:44:56Joshua's vision has been the driving force behind Lane Holdings.
00:45:00We cannot allow Alex to derail that.
00:45:03I can't do anything at this time.
00:45:05Joshua is out of commission.
00:45:07It's best to have someone lead the company.
00:45:10Gerald is not in good health after a stroke.
00:45:14Alex is the only choice.
00:45:15And what if I told you there's another choice?
00:45:21And what if I told you there's another choice?
00:45:25I can be the interim CEO of Lane Holdings as Joshua's legal wife.
00:45:30I can uphold his legacy and, as you mentioned before, I'm a very capable CEO in my own right.
00:45:36Your vote, of course, is crucial, but more than anything, people trust your judgment.
00:45:42If you choose to have faith in me, others will follow.
00:45:45And I promise, I won't disappoint.
00:45:49Can you run two companies at the same time?
00:45:52I have a very capable team over at Gerber Corporation.
00:45:55They'll keep things running smoothly, even if I'm not there full-time.
00:45:58I'll devote my time to Lane Holdings until Joshua gets better.
00:46:03What if he doesn't?
00:46:05He will.
00:46:07I admire your tenacity.
00:46:09I'll do what I can.
00:46:11Thank you, Mr. Lange.
00:46:15I'll fight for you, Joshua.
00:46:33You did the same for me.
00:46:38And we'll let you down.
00:46:39Given Joshua's current condition, I propose Mia Gerber as the interim CEO of Lane Holdings.
00:46:53Mia Gerber?
00:46:55She's from a different company.
00:46:56How is she even qualified?
00:46:58Mia is Joshua's wife, the legal heir.
00:47:01She's proven her capabilities with Gerber Corporation.
00:47:03Combining the strengths of both companies and her leadership will only make Lane Holdings strong.
00:47:09This is absurd.
00:47:11Mia is practically a stranger to our company's operations.
00:47:15While I appreciate your concerns, I think my track record speaks for itself.
00:47:21And unlike Alex here, who has had his hand in multiple questionable business dealings,
00:47:26I offer a clean slate and a fresh perspective.
00:47:31I agree with Mr. Lange.
00:47:33Mia's appointment as interim CEO is the best course of action for now.
00:47:37But Dad, stop, Alex.
00:47:45Joshua, I hope you're proud.
00:47:51Let's go.
00:47:53Ain't gonna take over?
00:47:54No consequences, Mia?
00:47:55Yeah.
00:47:56I'm gonna make her pay.
00:48:00You won't be touching her.
00:48:01Who the fuck are you?
00:48:08Damn it, she's caught.
00:48:09Take care of me.
00:48:18See the security camera?
00:48:20I'm gonna get the footage.
00:48:22And if you ever try and hurt me again, I'll call the police.
00:48:24You'll never become the CEO of Lane Holdings.
00:48:27Ever.
00:48:28God damn it!
00:48:40Thanks.
00:48:41Noah, what happened?
00:48:45Noah, what happened?
00:48:50Don't worry, I'm fine.
00:48:52You're not fine.
00:48:54You're bleeding.
00:48:55Are you okay?
00:48:59Thanks, but the reason I came over was I wanted to finish our conversation from before.
00:49:08Mrs. Lane.
00:49:09It's Mr. Lane.
00:49:10He's waking up from the coma.
00:49:11I have to go to the hospital.
00:49:15I just want to say something important.
00:49:17No, no.
00:49:17Nothing's more important than Joshua right now.
00:49:24Joshua, Joshua, Joshua.
00:49:26It's fucking Joshua.
00:49:27When you wake up, we can be together.
00:49:36Mia doesn't deserve you.
00:49:39But you and I, we're meant to be.
00:49:47Mia.
00:49:49Joshua, you're awake.
00:49:52Mia.
00:49:53Excuse me, miss.
00:49:58Mr. Lane?
00:50:01Mr. Lane?
00:50:02Mia.
00:50:04Can you hear me, sir?
00:50:05Mia.
00:50:06Call his wife, Mia Gerber, immediately.
00:50:09Mr. Lane, I need you to concentrate for me.
00:50:11Do you remember what day it is?
00:50:13Mia.
00:50:14Yes, we're getting your wife right now, sir.
00:50:16I'm sorry, this is all my fault.
00:50:25No, Mia.
00:50:27Don't blame yourself.
00:50:29It's a price I was willing to pay.
00:50:31You got hurt because of me.
00:50:33Mia, listen to me.
00:50:38I'm sorry for all the pain I've caused you.
00:50:41For not being honest about my feelings.
00:50:43I'm afraid to admit it, even to myself.
00:50:49I can't hide it anymore.
00:50:51I love you, Mia.
00:50:54I never thought I'd hear you say those words.
00:50:58You should have said them sooner.
00:51:02I love you too, Joshua.
00:51:03I love you too, Joshua.
00:51:03I love you too, Joshua.
00:51:13Noah Bellini.
00:51:31Drinking alone?
00:51:33What do you want, Dwayne?
00:51:34Just a talk.
00:51:35You are underappreciated, Noah.
00:51:37Maybe we could help each other out.
00:51:46Thank you for standing out for me while I was out.
00:51:51I heard you manage as interim CEO of Lane Holdings.
00:51:54I handled things.
00:51:57I actually have a business meeting later today with a potential partner.
00:52:00Who's your partner?
00:52:02Kevin Katz.
00:52:03He's a key player in the industry.
00:52:08Katz?
00:52:08He's notorious for being...
00:52:11handsy with business partners.
00:52:13I don't like the idea of you two being alone.
00:52:16I can handle Katz.
00:52:18We've dealt with worse.
00:52:20Just be careful, all right?
00:52:22I will.
00:52:27I promise.
00:52:31Hey.
00:52:31I got to go.
00:52:34I love you.
00:52:43So our collaboration will be mutually beneficial, especially when expanding into new markets.
00:52:48Absolutely, Mia.
00:52:49I've always admired Lane Holdings.
00:52:52Now with you at the helm, perhaps we can find ways to make our partnership more enjoyable.
00:52:59Mr. Katz, let's keep this strictly professional.
00:53:06Oh, come on, Mia.
00:53:07Don't be such a prude.
00:53:09Business is more fun when there's a personal touch.
00:53:15Don't you agree?
00:53:16I will not be doing business with people who cannot respect personal boundaries.
00:53:23You'll regret this, bitch.
00:53:26I could ruin Lane Holdings' reputation.
00:53:30Now you have one last chance.
00:53:33That's for being a disgusting pig.
00:53:39Hey.
00:53:49How'd the meeting go?
00:53:53Let's just say Kevin Katz won't be bothering us anymore.
00:53:56What did he do?
00:53:58I handled it.
00:54:00Okay?
00:54:01Let's just focus on getting you better and back in charge.
00:54:05Can I get you some water?
00:54:18Ethan, get the bodyguard and meet me downstairs.
00:54:20I can't explain right now.
00:54:21Just do it.
00:54:27Where's Joshua?
00:54:29Mr. Lane checked out.
00:54:30He insisted he was well enough to leave.
00:54:32No, he's not fully recovered yet.
00:54:34What are you trying to do?
00:54:40Teach you a lesson that you can't touch Joshua Lane's woman.
00:54:47You can't do this, Lane.
00:54:52I can sue you and you'll end up in jail.
00:54:56This is you, Mr. Katz.
00:54:58Doing something quite illegal.
00:55:00I must say, your taste is really reprehensible.
00:55:03You can't sue me.
00:55:06It was a long time ago.
00:55:08If I could still release the video, you'll lose everything.
00:55:12In fact, I just did.
00:55:14The victim's identity was protected.
00:55:17And they'll be set for the rest of their life.
00:55:20You...
00:55:20If you so much as speak a word about me or me, I'll make sure you wish you were born.
00:55:26Where were you?
00:55:32I was worried sick.
00:55:33I had to take care of something.
00:55:35About cats.
00:55:37I told you I handled it.
00:55:39I can take care of myself.
00:55:40I won't allow anyone laying their hands on you.
00:55:42Still, it's so reckless.
00:55:43It's okay now.
00:55:49You handled it?
00:55:51Yeah.
00:55:51I'm flattered by the jealousy.
00:55:55I really do love you, Joshua.
00:55:59I love you too, Mia.
00:56:03I have a surprise for you.
00:56:05I have a surprise for you.
00:56:06I made something for you.
00:56:17What's this?
00:56:18It's your mom's recipe.
00:56:20I found it in a cookbook in the library.
00:56:26I can't believe you made this.
00:56:29I thought it might bring you some comfort.
00:56:36This is exactly how she used to make it.
00:56:42How'd you get it so right?
00:56:44I may have had some help from the internet in about 50 practice runs.
00:56:53You're just the best.
00:56:58We have a plan that could ship the balance of power in our favor.
00:57:02Our plan didn't overthrow Mia Gerber and the Gerber Corporation.
00:57:08But this time, we will.
00:57:11I just, I don't want Mia to lose everything.
00:57:14I promise you, she won't.
00:57:16With the Gerber family's fortune, Mia's set for life.
00:57:20She just won't be the CEO anymore.
00:57:23Think about this.
00:57:25With the Gerber family out of practice,
00:57:27Lane Holdings, they won't partner with them.
00:57:30Joshua and Lane will probably divorce Mia.
00:57:32Because she is no use to him.
00:57:35Mia could finally be yours.
00:57:37Here's the plan.
00:57:39We target Gerber Corporation's medical device supplier network.
00:57:43Disrupting what will cause significant issues
00:57:45in the hospital and psychiatric care units.
00:57:49How do we proceed?
00:57:50Melody Healthcare has insiders inside their supply chain.
00:57:55We'll start by creating delays and quality issues.
00:57:58The fallout will be immediate and devastating.
00:58:01The resources stretch so thin,
00:58:04they won't even see us coming.
00:58:06Congratulations on your recovery, Joshua.
00:58:15It's good to see you up and about.
00:58:17Thanks for coming.
00:58:18And thank you for, um,
00:58:20being there for me.
00:58:22They're in the coma.
00:58:23It means a lot.
00:58:24But it didn't matter, did it?
00:58:29In the end,
00:58:30only Mia matters to you.
00:58:32Susie,
00:58:33it'll always matter to me.
00:58:36But,
00:58:37yes, I love Mia.
00:58:39I'll always love you too,
00:58:41but
00:58:41as a friend.
00:58:44That's not going to be enough for me.
00:58:46It's time for me to live my own life.
00:58:50That's why I'm here.
00:58:51To say goodbye.
00:58:54Um,
00:58:54what's your plan?
00:58:56I'm helping out my dad
00:58:57with our family company.
00:59:00Harper Medical Devices.
00:59:02That's Gerber Corporation's biggest supplier, right?
00:59:05Yeah.
00:59:07Susie, you wouldn't...
00:59:08Don't worry, Joshua.
00:59:09We're not going to do anything to Mia.
00:59:12I'm focusing on my own path now.
00:59:16Goodbye, Joshua.
00:59:32Why are there so many
00:59:33canceled contracts
00:59:34with Gerber Corporation?
00:59:36Hey.
00:59:37You haven't noticed
00:59:40any suppliers
00:59:41backing out of deals
00:59:42with Gerber Corporation.
00:59:45There are rumors
00:59:46someone's been persuading them
00:59:48to cut ties
00:59:49with the Gerbers.
00:59:49Hello?
01:00:00Hello?
01:00:04What do you mean
01:00:04they've stopped supplying to us?
01:00:06Noah, the suppliers
01:00:19are backing out
01:00:20for no reason.
01:00:21It's competitive marketing, yeah.
01:00:23Yeah, but this feels coordinated.
01:00:25Isn't that unusual?
01:00:27Yeah, it is,
01:00:27so I'm going to look into it.
01:00:30Hey, are you okay?
01:00:31Yeah, I'm fine.
01:00:33I'm just busy.
01:00:34Don't worry about me.
01:00:37Okay.
01:00:45You look like you've been through a war zone.
01:00:47What...
01:00:47what happened?
01:00:48It's the supplier crisis.
01:00:51The situation's worse than I thought.
01:00:52I don't know what to do, Joshua.
01:01:00We'll get through this
01:01:01together.
01:01:02Thank you all for coming.
01:01:15We understand your concerns
01:01:16and we're prepared
01:01:17to increase profits
01:01:18to maintain our partnerships.
01:01:20Now, the offer looks good.
01:01:34But we heard some rumors
01:01:35of internal issues
01:01:36within the corporation company
01:01:37involving a higher level.
01:01:40Let me assure you,
01:01:42Gerber Corporation
01:01:43is as strong as ever.
01:01:45These rumors are unfounded.
01:01:50You're right.
01:01:58There are gaps in Noah's whereabouts.
01:02:00Keep digging, Ethan.
01:02:01We need concrete evidence.
01:02:06Mia,
01:02:07Noah might be involved
01:02:08with the issues at the company.
01:02:11There's no way
01:02:12he's very loyal to the company.
01:02:14Although he has been acting weird lately.
01:02:17Have you ever considered
01:02:17he might have feelings for you?
01:02:18I mean, feelings
01:02:20make us do things.
01:02:23No.
01:02:24Noah's a brother to me.
01:02:26He's never even said
01:02:27anything remotely romantic.
01:02:29Actions speak louder than words.
01:02:32I mean, sure,
01:02:33he's supportive and caring,
01:02:35but that's just Noah being Noah.
01:02:36I really don't think
01:02:37there's anything more to it.
01:02:40Sometimes the people closest to us
01:02:42surprise us the most.
01:02:48Hey, just wanted to check in.
01:02:50We haven't had any time
01:02:52to talk lately.
01:02:53I've been good.
01:02:54I've just been busy
01:02:54dealing with the supplier crisis.
01:02:56I know.
01:02:57And I'm really grateful
01:02:58for you.
01:02:58You've done so much.
01:03:00I never wanted you
01:03:00to be burdened.
01:03:01I care too much about you.
01:03:03Hey, uh, I have a question.
01:03:12You don't secretly have
01:03:15feelings for me,
01:03:18do you?
01:03:21What if I do?
01:03:22Oh, um, really?
01:03:28I've put this off
01:03:30for too long.
01:03:32And I need to tell you now.
01:03:36I've loved you
01:03:37since the first time
01:03:38I met you.
01:03:41I still remember that day
01:03:42like it was yesterday.
01:03:44You were just starting college
01:03:45and came to visit the office
01:03:47during summer break.
01:03:49Wore a blue dress
01:03:50and looked like a princess.
01:03:53I was just starting off
01:03:54the company.
01:03:55I come from a humble background,
01:03:57so I never thought
01:03:59I could be with someone
01:04:00like you.
01:04:01Not anymore.
01:04:04I'm stronger.
01:04:06I'm more capable now.
01:04:08I know we should be
01:04:09together here.
01:04:12Noah.
01:04:17I've really only ever
01:04:19seen you as a friend.
01:04:23It's because Joshua's
01:04:24done things for you.
01:04:26I've done more.
01:04:27No.
01:04:29I love him, okay?
01:04:30We understand each other.
01:04:32Because you're both born
01:04:33with silver spoons
01:04:34in your mouth
01:04:35and I wasn't?
01:04:36You know it's not that.
01:04:38I just,
01:04:39I have a really
01:04:40strong feeling about him.
01:04:42I'm...
01:04:43Just not for me.
01:04:47Noah, I'm sorry.
01:04:49I didn't mean to lead you on.
01:04:51It wasn't my intention
01:04:53to hurt you.
01:04:57It's okay.
01:05:00I understand.
01:05:03I just needed to hear it from you.
01:05:06No.
01:05:11Dwayne,
01:05:11double down on the plan.
01:05:13There's no going back now.
01:05:23Noah,
01:05:23what brings you here?
01:05:26I think it's time for your company
01:05:28to reconsider its partnership
01:05:29with Gerber.
01:05:30I'm not sure what you're implying.
01:05:33It's simple.
01:05:34Harper Medical Devices
01:05:35is the biggest supplier
01:05:36for Gerber Corporation.
01:05:38If you cut ties with Gerber,
01:05:40it'll deal a critical blow to them.
01:05:42So,
01:05:44you're the one behind the scheme.
01:05:49Why would I go along with it?
01:05:51The question is,
01:05:52why wouldn't you?
01:05:53You and I are alike, Susie.
01:05:56We always love people
01:05:57who don't love us back.
01:05:59I've already let it go.
01:06:01Why let it go
01:06:02when you still have a chance?
01:06:04If me and the Gerber family
01:06:05are out of the company,
01:06:06the Lean family
01:06:07won the business alliance.
01:06:09Joshua and Mia
01:06:10will get divorced.
01:06:12You and I
01:06:13can finally be with them.
01:06:18Join me.
01:06:20Together we can make sure
01:06:21we aren't ignoring it anymore.
01:06:26So, Mia,
01:06:28we've heard smart suppliers
01:06:29are terminating contracts.
01:06:31Trust me,
01:06:31we have the situation under control.
01:06:33That's not what I heard.
01:06:35The rumor is Harper Medical Devices
01:06:36is pulling out.
01:06:38How do you explain this?
01:06:40I assure you
01:06:41we're addressing the concerns,
01:06:42but our relationship
01:06:43with our suppliers
01:06:44has never been stronger.
01:06:45As one of the largest shareholders,
01:06:47I have complete faith
01:06:48in Mia's leadership.
01:06:50These rumors are just that.
01:06:52Rumors.
01:06:52The rumor was right.
01:07:01Harper Medical Devices
01:07:02decided to terminate
01:07:03the contract with us.
01:07:04But there's still hope.
01:07:06I've convinced Harper
01:07:07to continue their partnership
01:07:08with us,
01:07:09but only if I become
01:07:12the new CEO.
01:07:14It's time for a change
01:07:15in leadership.
01:07:16Someone who could steer
01:07:17this company
01:07:17in the right direction.
01:07:18So I've brought
01:07:20Susie Harper with me,
01:07:21the acting CEO
01:07:22of Harper Medical Devices.
01:07:26Susie will tell you all
01:07:27that she would like
01:07:28me and Gerber to resign.
01:07:33Actually,
01:07:34I think there's been
01:07:34a misunderstanding.
01:07:37Harper Medical Devices
01:07:38never intended to terminate
01:07:39our contracts
01:07:40with Gerber Corporation.
01:07:42Any rumor suggesting
01:07:43otherwise is false.
01:07:44furthermore,
01:07:47I believe in Mia's leadership
01:07:50and the direction
01:07:51that she's taking
01:07:51this company.
01:07:53Thank you, Susie.
01:07:55I owe you a big one.
01:07:57You don't owe me anything.
01:07:59I just want Joshua
01:08:00and the person
01:08:00he loves to be happy.
01:08:04Promise me.
01:08:06Never heard of him.
01:08:10And I have evidence
01:08:11that Noah Bellani
01:08:12has been conspiring
01:08:14with former ousted
01:08:15executive Dwayne Kaiser
01:08:16to sabotage the company.
01:08:20Mr. Bellani,
01:08:22your actions
01:08:23have endangered
01:08:23the company
01:08:24and everybody in it.
01:08:26You're therefore
01:08:27terminated
01:08:27immediately.
01:08:44It's quite the view.
01:09:00I thought a lot
01:09:01about what happened
01:09:01and I wanted
01:09:03to say sorry.
01:09:05I should have been clearer
01:09:06and I didn't mean to lead you on.
01:09:11I was lost, Mia.
01:09:13My actions,
01:09:15my obsession.
01:09:18I'm sorry for everything.
01:09:19We both made mistakes.
01:09:25We're just glad
01:09:26we can put it all behind us.
01:09:30You were a good friend, Noah.
01:09:33You were more than a friend
01:09:34than me, Mia.
01:09:34I've learned to let go.
01:09:40I just want you
01:09:41to be happy.
01:09:45I am.
01:09:47I hope you find
01:09:48your happiness, too.
01:09:49Take care, Noah.
01:09:56Me, too.
01:10:13We are gathered here today
01:10:15to witness
01:10:16the reaffirmation
01:10:17of vows
01:10:18between
01:10:19Mia
01:10:19and Joshua Lane.
