00:00:00I never thought my ex-fiancee would be my boss, and now I have to report to him directly.
00:00:30Hello? Daniel? Daniel, are you home?
00:00:46Hey, Emily! Come up here, I need your help.
00:00:48Daniel!
00:01:00I'm sorry, I should...
00:01:03Wait.
00:01:07Uh, Daniel, please, cover yourself.
00:01:09What, are you embarrassed? There's nothing you haven't seen before?
00:01:13If you're all set, then, um, I should go.
00:01:17Stop.
00:01:22You do know you're here to be my assistant, right?
00:01:25Well, if there's anything work-related, just let me know.
00:01:33Here. Take the coat.
00:01:36Wait by the door.
00:01:38We're going to go meet some friends at a bar.
00:01:42I'm not gonna be Daniel Oster's assistant!
00:01:48Have you forgotten so easily?
00:01:51Just imagine the look on that loser ex's face of yours when he receives the massive debt collection notices.
00:01:56And not to mention the court summons.
00:02:07Aw, Daniel!
00:02:09Hey, Daniel! Come on, you are late.
00:02:12Hey, hey, do I have the order of your drinks with me?
00:02:15Actually, uh, she's not really have much of a drinker.
00:02:20Daniel!
00:02:22You know there's a penalty for being late, huh?
00:02:26Pick a female in the room, and try to kiss her.
00:02:29Good choice.
00:02:34Kiss her.
00:02:36Kiss her.
00:02:37Kiss her!
00:02:39Sorry, they can be kind of relentless.
00:02:41Might as well get it.
00:02:43I'll drink for punishment.
00:02:50What are you doing?
00:02:51You know, if you can't handle it, maybe you shouldn't drink.
00:03:07He's kissing me really that difficult.
00:03:10It's just a game.
00:03:11Just a game?
00:03:14Just a game?
00:03:15I can't treat it that way.
00:03:17I've always loved you, Daniel.
00:03:19Don't joke like that.
00:03:21I won't betray my husband.
00:03:23Your husband.
00:03:25I guess I should just wish you guys a lifetime of happiness.
00:03:28I should go.
00:03:29I could be so heartless.
00:03:34Are you all ready?
00:03:40God, you've always been such a lightweight.
00:03:42You really need to take better care of yourself.
00:03:45Come on.
00:03:46I'll take you home.
00:03:47I'll go get you something for the hangover.
00:04:13James.
00:04:15That collaboration you were talking to me about.
00:04:19Why don't you come over so we can discuss it further?
00:04:25I brought you this.
00:04:28Are you even drunk?
00:04:30Yeah.
00:04:31I'm drunk.
00:04:33I'm love.
00:04:34And you're the only cure I need.
00:04:44I'm drunk.
00:04:49We shouldn't be doing this.
00:04:56My eyes.
00:05:01Daniel, you up here?
00:05:06Daniel, you up here?
00:05:10James.
00:05:11What is he doing here?
00:05:16What's wrong?
00:05:18You look rattled.
00:05:20Are you worried about how you're going to explain this to your husband?
00:05:23I need to go.
00:05:25If James catches us, it's over.
00:05:27Keep him around.
00:05:29Take him to the curb.
00:05:31You know I can give you whatever you want better than you ever could.
00:05:34Here we go.
00:05:44Daniel.
00:05:45I'm coming.
00:05:49Oh.
00:05:50Sorry.
00:05:51Keep going.
00:05:53What do you want?
00:05:57I'm going to feel your heart race.
00:05:59Leave for me.
00:06:06Daniel.
00:06:07Please.
00:06:11What am I doing?
00:06:23What kind of guy would invite me over while he's...
00:06:25The woman?
00:06:31Why are you here?
00:06:32Why are you here?
00:06:35Wait.
00:06:36You're not thinking of...
00:06:38Please don't tell me you ran out to avoid seeing Daniel with someone else.
00:06:41You need to take this seriously.
00:06:43Keeping Daniel happy is our top priority.
00:06:44A priority.
00:06:51Yes, James.
00:06:54Sorry about earlier.
00:06:56Listen, I need you to set up a candlelit dinner as a surprise for my girl.
00:07:00Everything is set, Mr. Alster.
00:07:14Your sweetheart is going to be so touched by all of this.
00:07:21Can I ask which lovely lady you're waiting for?
00:07:25It's over between us!
00:07:27Look, he gave me a ring!
00:07:31You'll know when she arrives.
00:07:51I'll, uh...
00:07:53Go check on the suit.
00:08:00Looks like he really cares about this date.
00:08:06You're just gonna stand there?
00:08:08Here's the file you needed.
00:08:11See you tomorrow.
00:08:16What are you doing?
00:08:19What's wrong? Are you jealous?
00:08:21Jealous of my date?
00:08:23Of course not. Why would I be jealous?
00:08:25I hope you have a great date.
00:08:30We can't do this.
00:08:32Why not?
00:08:49You'll regret this, Emily.
00:08:50Emily!
00:08:56Emily!
00:08:58I swear it, you will regret this!
00:09:00Emily!
00:09:02I'm married.
00:09:04And you have a date.
00:09:06So what?
00:09:07So we should only have a boss-employee relationship.
00:09:10Please, just don't toy with me like this anymore.
00:09:14I didn't start that kiss.
00:09:16I need to control my feelings for Daniel.
00:09:19Otherwise, it'll only make things more complicated.
00:09:22It was just a slip-up.
00:09:24Daniel, we're done.
00:09:27Emily, if you could choose again, would you pick James or me?
00:09:32The treatment alone without proper insurance can cost over a million dollars.
00:09:38The surgery is critical for Daniel's survival.
00:09:43James, please, I swear I will pay you back.
00:09:46It's a special marriage contract.
00:09:48There's no divorce clause.
00:09:50That means you would marry me and can never leave me.
00:09:53I never thought about picking James.
00:09:56But do I really have a choice?
00:09:57If you pick me, this contract could be your compensation, James.
00:10:02It's what he's always wanted.
00:10:04Who do you think I am?
00:10:06Just something to trade or a tool for your pleasure?
00:10:10You clearly have a lover and yet you don't want to treat me like this?
00:10:14Is this how you're getting back at me?
00:10:16You didn't answer me.
00:10:18Me or him.
00:10:19Or him.
00:10:24Emily!
00:10:26What are you doing here?
00:10:31I just came to drop off some files.
00:10:34If I did anything wrong, I'm really sorry.
00:10:44Emily!
00:10:46Any updates on our partnership?
00:10:50I think I should resign.
00:10:52What's going on between you two?
00:10:54Are you hiding something from me?
00:10:56No, it's just the work pressure.
00:10:59Stop talking nonsense.
00:11:01Just make sure you serve him well.
00:11:03You're the one that wants to work with him, not me.
00:11:07Don't forget who helped you when you were struggling.
00:11:10Your mother's still in the hospital waiting for treatment money.
00:11:12And I'm not giving you another dime.
00:11:13Don.
00:11:15Right.
00:11:16Mom still needs money for her medical bills.
00:11:18I need to earn it.
00:11:22Baby.
00:11:24I'm sorry.
00:11:26I got a little carried away.
00:11:28The pressure at work has been...
00:11:30intense.
00:11:31You understand, right?
00:11:33I love you.
00:11:35I don't want you to be Daniel's assistant either.
00:11:37But we need to make this work for our future.
00:11:38I'll stay on as his assistant, but it's for my own sake.
00:11:44Okay.
00:11:48Whatever you say.
00:11:50Just hurry back.
00:11:51He's still inside.
00:11:52Emily.
00:11:53He's not a good guy.
00:11:54Why can't you see them?
00:11:56You're bleeding.
00:11:58What happened?
00:12:00Wait here, I...
00:12:02I'll go get the first aid kit.
00:12:03So you actually care that I'm hurt?
00:12:04Of course I do.
00:12:05You're bleeding.
00:12:07You're bleeding.
00:12:09What happened?
00:12:11Wait here, I...
00:12:12I'll go get the first aid kit.
00:12:14Wait here, I...
00:12:16I'll go get the first aid kit.
00:12:30So you actually care that I'm hurt?
00:12:33Of course I do.
00:12:34Just...
00:12:39Try to keep it dry for the next few days.
00:12:41You might get infected.
00:12:45Tell me you don't feel this.
00:12:48Right now.
00:12:50I'll leave you alone.
00:12:54I...
00:12:59This isn't right.
00:13:01Being with someone you don't love.
00:13:02That's what isn't right.
00:13:04So I should just be with a boss that likes to flirt with me?
00:13:09Why patch me up at all?
00:13:11I'm your assistant.
00:13:12It's just my job.
00:13:14You're more than my assistant.
00:13:15The way you act.
00:13:16How you look at me.
00:13:17It's like...
00:13:18Sorry, I'm...
00:13:19I'm loyal to my marriage and my husband is still out there.
00:13:22When you left me, you were cold as ice.
00:13:24Willing to sacrifice our love.
00:13:26How is being with James any different...
00:13:28Enough!
00:13:30Stop.
00:13:32Please.
00:13:40Mr. Oster.
00:13:41Isn't your sweetheart supposed to be here by now?
00:13:43She already left.
00:13:45What?
00:13:46I didn't see her outside.
00:13:47She was unhappy with our arrangements and has turned me down several times.
00:13:57What?
00:13:58What kind of woman would turn down someone like you?
00:14:00Just force her to be with you?
00:14:02That you ended up with Emily?
00:14:03Actually, we're together because of her ex-boyfriend.
00:14:13What does her ex have to do with this?
00:14:14Sorry, I'm late.
00:14:15Hey, darling.
00:14:16Been too busy to take you out this week.
00:14:17Let's change that tonight.
00:14:18Talk later.
00:14:19All wear your favorite uniform?
00:14:20Emily.
00:14:21Emily.
00:14:22Emily.
00:14:23You really shouldn't see his true colors.
00:14:24The marriage you're trying to protect is a joke.
00:14:28This is the house special.
00:14:29The same one Vivian recommended to me when we first met two years ago.
00:14:38Fooling around with Vivian for two years.
00:14:55Fight the catch, James.
00:15:08What's going on between Emily and James?
00:15:21I need you to come pick me up.
00:15:23I can't drive with my hand.
00:15:34I need you to come pick me up.
00:15:36I can't drive with my hands.
00:15:38What?
00:15:40Are you serious?
00:15:42It's midnight.
00:15:43I'm about to get home.
00:15:45You know what?
00:15:46Just leave me.
00:15:47Just leave your boss on the side of the road.
00:15:49You're a great assistant.
00:15:51You're on a date.
00:15:53That's not part of my job.
00:15:54Call Sean.
00:15:56Sean's out of town.
00:15:58Then call a cab.
00:16:00And don't give me that nonsense about rich people not calling cabs.
00:16:03You used to handle this kind of stuff for us all the time.
00:16:07I mean.
00:16:09So you remember.
00:16:11Well, I don't have any cash on me.
00:16:13My car's back.

00:16:26Oh, a billionaire can't get a ride home?
00:16:29Oh, not my problem.

00:16:37I must be out of my mind.
00:16:41Could you like a cab?
00:16:42I mean.
00:16:42I must be out of my mind.
00:16:43I might be out of my life.
00:16:44You must be out of my way.
00:16:44You must be out of my mind.

00:23:46Mr. Oster.
00:23:50Get her made up. Put her in the dress from the vault.
00:23:55That's the boss's most prized dress. He's never let anyone wear it. She must be someone
00:24:01important. Right away, Mr. Oster.
00:24:04If you don't like the way I look, you could always bring someone else. How about that
00:24:11precious date of yours?

00:24:24From now on, you're the only one I'll take to events.
00:24:28Why?
00:24:29Because you're my personal assistant.
00:24:34What am I thinking? He only sees me as a plaything. Do I really think you'll ever cherish me?
00:24:42Miss?
00:24:43Please follow me.
00:24:44Am I really gonna wear this?
00:24:57Just as perfect.
00:25:15This is perfect.
00:25:23It's beautiful.
00:25:27I love it.
00:25:29It's perfect.
00:25:31Really?
00:25:33What do you like about it?
00:25:35The snowflakes?
00:25:37They remind me of that Christmas.
00:25:41I almost mentioned the proposal.
00:25:43I can't go there.
00:25:51I, uh...
00:25:53Oh!
00:25:59I mean, the cut's great.
00:26:01The snowflakes, they're really striking.
00:26:05Really?
00:26:07You don't remember anything in particular?
00:26:09Have you really forgotten everything about us?
00:26:13Well, the sales associates said this is your most treasured dress.
00:26:19Is there a backstory?
00:26:25No.
00:26:26It's just a sample for next season's collection.
00:26:29Let's go, there's a gown waiting for us.
00:26:31Emily.
00:26:37You look amazing in that dress.
00:26:41It's...
00:26:43a true masterpiece from a top-tier luxury design house.
00:26:47Of course.
00:26:49Boss worked a whole month putting that together.
00:26:51The light's green.
00:26:53Why didn't the boss tell Emily this is the dress he's been working on for the past month?
00:26:59Oh my god.
00:27:03Is that Daniel Oster?
00:27:05Oh my god.
00:27:07Is that Daniel Oster?
00:27:09Blacks.
00:27:11Belonged.
00:27:13Own it.
00:27:15I think this is the first time he's brought a date to a gala.
00:27:17The reclusive Daniel Oster with a woman?
00:27:19There's gotta be something going on between them.
00:27:21Let your integrity speak for itself.
00:27:23And besides.
00:27:24You're with me.
00:27:25You have nothing to worry about.
00:27:26You're with me.
00:27:27You have nothing to worry about.
00:27:28You're with me.
00:27:29You're with me.
00:27:30You're with me.
00:27:31You're with me.
00:27:32You're with me.
00:27:33You're with me.
00:27:34You're with me.
00:27:35You're with me.
00:27:36You're with me.
00:27:37You're with me.
00:27:38You're with me.
00:27:39You're with me.
00:27:40You're with me.
00:27:41You're with me.
00:27:42You're with me.
00:27:43You're with me.
00:27:44You're with me.
00:27:45You're with me.
00:27:46You're with me.
00:27:47You're with me.
00:27:48You're with me.
00:27:49You're with me.
00:27:50You're with me.
00:27:51You're with me.
00:27:52Look! He's escorting her by the arm now. This has to be his date.
00:28:00But why does she look so familiar?
00:28:04Wait, wasn't she James' wife?
00:28:07I remember seeing her at the auction a few years ago.
00:28:10But then what's she doing here with Daniel?
00:28:13Do they?
00:28:15Okay.
00:28:17Oh, Mr. Oster. I am such a huge fan of you. I really admire your work.
00:28:29And this.
00:28:31I'm his assistant.
00:28:33Oh, his assistant! That makes sense. I couldn't picture Daniel with a married woman.
00:28:40If I ever hear you say that again, you'll deal with my lawyer directly.
00:28:46Yes, Mr. Oster.
00:28:51Of course. It's all about his reputation. We should keep our distance.
00:28:57No point in making things any messier.
00:29:00Mr. Oster.
00:29:02Didn't expect to see you here.
00:29:09Excuse us. I need a moment with my wife.
00:29:16So, Daniel's bringing you to events like this now. You must be doing pretty well with him.
00:29:21What's your point? You're the one who told me to meet him for business.
00:29:26Progress?
00:29:27He's all about money. He's not as easy to work with as you think.
00:29:31Yeah. Trying to get a penny out of this guy is like pulling teeth.
00:29:35You better figure it out. The creditors are getting restless.
00:29:38Why don't you figure it out for yourself?
00:29:40How dare you talk to me like that?
00:29:42Just because you're Daniel's assistant doesn't mean you can forget where you came from.
00:29:46Figure it out. We'll both be in the gutter.
00:29:49Well, well, well. Look at you.
00:29:55You are beautiful.
00:29:57Oh, my. The moment you walked in.
00:30:00What about you a drink, darling?
00:30:02Ah, Bart from Royal Logistics.
00:30:06I didn't even recognize you there. Please forgive me.
00:30:09Sorry. I'm allergic to alcohol.
00:30:12Come on.
00:30:13We both know that's not true, don't we?
00:30:16Just saw you drinking with Daniel.
00:30:19Emily, this is Bart, CEO of Logistics Empire.
00:30:23He has connections with over half of the design firms worldwide.
00:30:27Say hello.
00:30:30Hey, James. You wouldn't mind if I had a drink with your lovely wife, would you?
00:30:34Of course not. She'd be delighted.
00:30:38Stop acting as just a drink.
00:30:46How about that drink, darling?
00:30:54Bart!
00:30:55Always the eager beaver.
00:30:58Daniel! Long time no see.
00:31:03Do you know what the problem with your generation is?
00:31:06Is it all so uptight? It's just a drink.
00:31:10So what's with the attitude?
00:31:11Think you're too good for me? Is that it?
00:31:16My assistant is just not used to your enthusiasm.
00:31:22Let's call it a night.
00:31:23Let's call it a night.
00:31:24So she's your assistant.
00:31:29You would think she would have a little bit more respect.
00:31:31I'll admit, my assistant is a little spoiled.
00:31:43She's got a short temper.
00:31:45If she snaps, it'll be a scene.
00:31:48So what?
00:31:49I'll just tell my teacher a little lesson.
00:31:53What is your problem?
00:31:55I offer you a drink and you turn it down.
00:31:58Lucky I even noticed.
00:32:01You need to learn to be a little bit more great.
00:32:04You're forcing me to drink.
00:32:06That's harassment.
00:32:08Harassment.
00:32:09Typical.
00:32:11Don't get all high and mighty with me.
00:32:14Nobody talks to me like that.
00:32:16Come here!
00:32:17You crazy bitch!
00:32:28Are you out of your mind?
00:32:29Who do you think you are?
00:32:31Emily, what the hell are you doing?
00:32:33Apologize to Bart.
00:32:35He touched me!
00:32:37Disrespected me!
00:32:38Why should I apologize?
00:32:40Are you insane?
00:32:41He's a big deal.
00:32:42He has connections with over half of the design firms worldwide.
00:32:45You can't afford to piss him off.
00:32:47Apologize!
00:32:49No.
00:32:51You can keep her in line.
00:32:52Make sure she never works in this industry again.
00:32:55You even know who I am?
00:32:58I'm the key partner in the Astro Group.
00:33:01One word for me, and you're out of a job.
00:33:03Daniel, why didn't you stop me?
00:33:09I shouldn't have acted like that.
00:33:11You've really messed things up now.
00:33:14They say you're wild.
00:33:16Not detain.
00:33:18Maybe it's time you learned some restraint.
00:33:23Daniel, you obviously need to fire this rude, uncivilized woman.
00:33:27She doesn't belong here.
00:33:29Playing with fire is dangerous.
00:33:31Must have consequences.
00:33:36So this is what he thinks too?
00:33:38Just like James.
00:33:40I'm always the problem.
00:33:42Now go.
00:33:46Well, hold on, hold on.
00:33:49You know, I'm nothing if not a forgiving guy.
00:33:53If you're willing to get down on your knees and apologize to me.
00:33:57Let this whole thing slide.
00:34:00No.
00:34:04I won't have my dress ruined.
00:34:05Now just go.
00:34:08Daniel's never spoken to me like this before.
00:34:11I guess Bart really means something to him.
00:34:17Well done.
00:34:18Daniel, you know I admire a guy with guts.
00:34:23With your drive, there's nothing you can't do.
00:34:27You wanted a drink, right, Bart?
00:34:31I gotta tell you, I'm parched.
00:34:32I have to tell you.
00:34:33You take it to go.
00:34:34What the hell, Daniel?
00:34:35Are you crazy?
00:34:36It's about time I taught you a lesson, Bart.
00:34:37You're not some dog that can just keep yapping.
00:34:38It's this thing.
00:34:39It's about time I taught you a lesson, Bart.
00:34:40You're not some dog that can just keep yapping.
00:34:41Is this the hand you touched my assistant with?
00:34:42That's what this is about, old woman?
00:34:43Daniel, I'm your biggest partner.
00:34:44I'm your biggest partner.
00:34:45What the hell, Daniel?
00:34:46Are you crazy?
00:34:47It's about time I taught you a lesson, Bart.
00:34:48You're not some dog that can just keep yapping.
00:34:54Is this the hand you touched my assistant with?
00:34:55That's what this is about, old woman!
00:34:57Daniel, I'm your biggest partner.
00:34:59Not anymore.
00:35:00Daniel, we've been partners for years.
00:35:03I'm your biggest partner.
00:35:04What the hell, Daniel?
00:35:06I'm your biggest partner.
00:35:08I'm your biggest partner.
00:35:09I'm your biggest partner.
00:35:11It's not any more.
00:35:12Daniel, I'm your biggest partner.
00:35:16We've been partners for years.
00:35:18Come after me again, and you'll regret it.
00:35:22Touch my people.
00:35:24I will hurt you, but life is hard.
00:35:28It's OK.
00:35:29Fuck.
00:35:31Ugh.
00:35:35Looks like Emily's really earned Daniel's trust.
00:35:37This deal is locked.
00:35:38My company is safe.
00:35:40Do you know how many design firms would kill to work with Bart?
00:35:43And Daniel just cuts him off over his assistant?
00:35:46Emily must be something else.
00:35:48I heard him say she's wild.
00:35:51I bet there's more to their story.
00:35:59Emily.
00:36:02I'm sorry.
00:36:03I didn't mean to cause a scene.
00:36:06I'll take responsibility for what happens.
00:36:08I understand if you need to fire me.
00:36:10When did I say I was going to fire you?
00:36:12I'm the CEO.
00:36:14You're the assistant.
00:36:15I'll make the choices.
00:36:17Why isn't he angry with me?
00:36:19This is the perfect moment for him to explode.
00:36:22I'm still holding you.
00:36:34Come home with me.
00:36:35Why can't I refuse him?
00:36:45I prepared the bath water like you asked.
00:36:49Good.
00:36:57Wait here.
00:36:58Let me see.
00:36:59James?
00:37:13James?
00:37:13I heard you left with Daniel.
00:37:17So did you bring up the partnership?
00:37:20This is not the time.
00:37:21You idiot.
00:37:22Him standing up for you tonight clearly shows he trusts you now.
00:37:25What are you talking about?
00:37:27Come on.
00:37:28Daniel attacked Bart for you, then cut all ties with him.
00:37:31That's huge.
00:37:32He did all that for me.
00:37:33Why didn't he tell me?
00:37:34Emily, are you even listening?
00:37:36Take this chance to talk to him about the deal before it's too late.
00:37:39You know how important this is.
00:37:40Yeah.
00:37:41Why is Daniel helping me?
00:37:42Does he still care about me?
00:37:43Daniel.
00:37:45Say no.
00:37:46Say no.
00:37:47You don't have to do this for me.
00:37:50He's your business partner.
00:37:58Get the business partners.
00:38:03You're the only one I care about.
00:38:18I can't. This wouldn't be right.
00:38:22I'm jealous. I'm jealous of him.
00:38:26I don't want to be here with me.
00:38:30You're all mine.
00:38:48What did I do? I... I slept with Daniel?
00:39:06I must be out of my mind. How could I have done this?
00:39:18Take the day off and make breakfast.
00:39:25Emily, this is cheating. It's wrong.
00:39:29You need to get your life back on track before it gets even more complicated.
00:39:44Emily, I made your favorite. Pancakes.
00:39:48Daniel, we need to talk.
00:39:54I'm resigning.
00:39:58I'm really sorry, Daniel.
00:40:01Last night was a mistake. I'm married.
00:40:04So you're just gonna sleep with me and kick me to the curb?
00:40:07I'm... I'm really sorry.
00:40:10You've got your life.
00:40:14This isn't right.
00:40:16James isn't right for you.
00:40:18Why can't you see that? Why are you being so naive?
00:40:22Sean.
00:40:24Yes, I need you to look into something for me.
00:40:26And I need you to take care of James.
00:40:28Now.
00:40:30You didn't come home last night.
00:40:32Where were you?
00:40:34I... I... I had to work late. I got caught up with something at work.
00:40:40That smells like men's cologne. Whose is it?
00:40:42It's Daniel's.
00:40:46We were discussing their contract.
00:40:50What?
00:40:52The signed documents were flagged because the contracts are invalid?
00:40:54The clients cancelled everything?
00:40:55The clients cancelled everything?
00:40:56The clients cancelled everything?
00:40:58This contract...
00:40:59Is that what?
00:41:00Are you crying?
00:41:01I'm crying?
00:41:02You're crying?
00:41:03I'm crying.
00:41:04That smells like men's cologne. Whose is it?
00:41:08It's Daniel's. We were discussing their contract.
00:41:15What? The signed documents were flagged because the contracts are invalid?
00:41:20The client's canceled everything? This can't be happening.
00:41:25I've been in this business my entire life and I've never seen anything like this.
00:41:28Someone's setting me up.
00:41:31Hold on. I'll get another call.
00:41:33What?
00:41:34We agreed upon two months.
00:41:37How the hell am I supposed to come up with that much cash by next weekend?
00:41:40Shit!
00:41:41How is everything going wrong at once?
00:41:44I need to lay low for a while.
00:41:45We can't afford any more delays in the contract.
00:41:48Get Daniel to sign it or it won't just be us who suffer.
00:41:52It'll be your mother too.
00:42:00Boss, I've taken care of everything you asked.
00:42:02James' company is drowning in trouble now.
00:42:04Ross, you're really going to take Emily from him like that?
00:42:09I'm not letting her suffer any longer.
00:42:13James needs to pay for what he's done.
00:42:16Emily, right?
00:42:26Be at the Crown Hotel, room 102 in 30 minutes, or you can start planning your lover's funeral.
00:42:32Daniel, is he in trouble?
00:42:37Boss, we just got word that James' bookie might be targeting Emily now.
00:42:44Where have they taken Daniel?
00:42:54Where is he?
00:42:55I was about to ask you the same thing.
00:42:58James was supposed to pay today.
00:42:59Where the hell is he?
00:43:00James?
00:43:01I don't know.
00:43:02He hasn't reached out to me.
00:43:03I haven't seen him.
00:43:04I think he'll have to do it.
00:43:05James is a piece of trash.
00:43:07When everything went to hell, he left you to clean up his mess.
00:43:13It's his mess.
00:43:27Go find him.
00:43:29Bitch, you still there to call for help?
00:43:32You think James would come running if I messed up your face?
00:43:43Where's the damn door?
00:43:48Who are you, asshole?
00:43:55Who are you, asshole?
00:43:57You're asking for trouble.
00:43:59Found it.
00:44:00Get away from Emma.
00:44:02Daniel, watch out!
00:44:21Emily.
00:44:23Are you okay?
00:44:25Fine.
00:44:27You're bleeding.
00:44:28Let me see.
00:44:30Doesn't matter.
00:44:31As long as you're okay.
00:44:33Like I said, let's get you somewhere safe.
00:44:36How do you know where to find me?
00:44:56You don't become the youngest billionaire without taking a few chances.
00:44:59I know where all my potential enemies are at all times.
00:45:04Never let anyone hurt you.
00:45:17James could be home any minute.
00:45:19You should probably go.
00:45:20James ran off.
00:45:23James ran off and left you to clean up his mess.
00:45:26Honestly, how can you still be defending him?
00:45:29Do you really still love him?
00:45:30Do you want to be married to him?
00:45:34Daniel, please.
00:45:36Don't ask.
00:45:38I don't want you to know about the past.
00:45:40I'll pass.
00:45:42It's too painful.
00:45:46He was good to me.
00:45:48Back then.
00:45:53I'm tired.
00:45:54You should probably go.
00:45:55You don't deserve this.
00:46:04We don't deserve this.
00:46:07Fuck!
00:46:11What am I doing, Daniel?
00:46:14Please, don't be so kind to me.
00:46:16You shouldn't have let him leave like that.
00:46:23Without an umbrella, what if his wound gets infected?
00:46:46Daniel?
00:46:48Daniel?
00:46:53Are you looking for me?
00:47:11You still care about me.
00:47:13I thought if a billionaire like you got caught out of a storm like this, the police would come after me.
00:47:22Are you just looking out for yourself?
00:47:25Yeah.
00:47:29Good.
00:47:31Because I don't care about anyone though.
00:47:33That's all I need is to.
00:47:43No.
00:47:44No.
00:47:46No.
00:47:48No.
00:47:50No.
00:48:04No.
00:48:06No.
00:48:08No.
00:48:09What have I gotten myself into?
00:48:22I love you, Daniel, but I can't drag you into this toxic relationship.
00:48:31You kissed me.
00:48:32Daniel, just admit it, you love me.
00:48:46Divorce James, marry me.
00:48:50Daniel, I'm sorry, but-
00:48:59Really?
00:49:01No matter how much he's hurt you, you still can't leave him.
00:49:10What the hell does that bastard have over you?
00:49:16We need to end this.
00:49:18I'm married.
00:49:19We've gone too far.
00:49:22Emily, please, be with me.
00:49:27James' company is going bankrupt, right?
00:49:29If you stay with me, I'll invest in his company.
00:49:33What do you take me for?
00:49:36Some kind of object?
00:49:38Just-
00:49:40We're done here.
00:49:42Leave me alone.
00:49:43Emily, are you okay?
00:49:50I'm fine, just go away.
00:49:56See you next time.
00:49:59You're welcome.
00:50:01ắng
00:50:26James is the only one who knew about my mother's hospitalization. Could it really be him?
00:50:39Emily, I need a favor. I found a new investor and he's willing to provide funding, but I need you to meet him for me.
00:50:45Come back and face this yourself, James. I almost died because of you.
00:50:50Please, just this once.
00:50:51Did you pay for my mother's medical bills? I just got the hospital notice.
00:50:58Uh, yeah, yeah.
00:51:00Now please, help me out. I sent you the address.
00:51:05Fine. But remember, this is the last time.
00:51:09Boss, I found out James has been talking to bar readers. He's trying to offer Emily some sort of bargaining chip for your funding.
00:51:23First, he abuses her. Then he treats her like some sort of commodity.
00:51:28I won't bury. He will regret this.
00:51:31Get, get, we're done. I want James' company bankrupt. Tomorrow.
00:51:44So it's you.
00:51:46You're, you're the one behind all of this?
00:51:49Why?
00:51:52Emily, please. You don't understand everything he's done.
00:51:55He's a jerk, I know, but the one who crossed the line, it's me.
00:51:59You don't know everything, Emily.
00:52:06Is this why you brought me here?
00:52:08I don't need you stepping in, Daniel. I can handle this on my own.
00:52:21Boss, Bart's been taken care of.
00:52:24We found some type of sex dungeon at his place.
00:52:26Thankfully, Emily never made it there.
00:52:29If she had, it could have been bad.
00:52:32Did I tell her?
00:52:33No.
00:52:34No.
00:52:36Keep this between us.
00:52:38Where the hell have you been?
00:52:55If our company's bankrupt, it's your fault.
00:52:58James, stop!
00:52:59What the hell were you doing with Daniel all day?
00:53:02Nothing's helping.
00:53:03I asked you to meet Bart.
00:53:04Where the hell were you?
00:53:05The investor you mentioned is Bart?
00:53:08So what?
00:53:08He just wants to help us.
00:53:10I will do anything it takes to get my company back on track.
00:53:13Even if that means letting him degrade your wife?
00:53:15Shut up, you cursed woman.
00:53:16Ever since I got tied to you, my luck's gone to hell.
00:53:19Our company's ruined because of you.
00:53:20Don't pin this on me!
00:53:22You never take responsibility for your own mess,
00:53:25and I'm done being your scapegoat!
00:53:29Don't get that shit on me!
00:53:30Don't get that shit on me!
00:53:45Congratulations, Emily.
00:53:48You're four weeks pregnant.
00:53:49I can't believe I'm going to have a child.
00:53:58Daniel's child.
00:53:59I can't let James know about the pregnancy.
00:54:02And I have to cut ties with Daniel.
00:54:05What about the baby?
00:54:15Are you alright?
00:54:17What did the doctor say?
00:54:18I'm fine.
00:54:18The doctor said everything's going to be okay.
00:54:21Please.
00:54:22This is personal.
00:54:25Please respect my privacy.
00:54:32Mr. Allister,
00:54:34you look like you recovered from your surgery.
00:54:37Emily left this behind.
00:54:39Could you give that to her for me, please?
00:54:43Thank you, doctor.
00:54:44What the hell are you doing?
00:55:05You're pregnant?
00:55:07Four weeks?
00:55:08I haven't touched you in over a year.
00:55:09Who the hell is the father of this child?
00:55:12I'm sorry.
00:55:16While I'm out here trying to save my company,
00:55:18you're sleeping with other men behind my back.
00:55:20Let me go!
00:55:21Tell me who it is.
00:55:23Tell me which guy you're sleeping with.
00:55:25You and that bastard are going to regret it, I swear.
00:55:27What if I say it's me?
00:55:43You've got to be kidding me.
00:55:45When did this happen?
00:55:46If you'd paid any attention at all,
00:55:49you'd know how I feel about her.
00:55:51Wait.
00:55:52So you set her up as your assistant on purpose?
00:55:54So what?
00:55:55And you knew the whole time,
00:55:57acting like a saint?
00:55:58Sleeping with him like a slut?
00:55:59You don't get to say that!
00:56:01You scum!
00:56:03You're an idiot.
00:56:04All that money you couldn't find a decent woman?
00:56:07Instead you chased this useless, pathetic woman?
00:56:10Enough, Daniel!
00:56:11Don't get dragged into this.
00:56:14James.
00:56:15Bastard.
00:56:16You two are cut from the same cloth.
00:56:19You'll end up betraying each other.
00:56:20Mark my words.
00:56:21Say one more thing about her.
00:56:25You'll never speak again.
00:56:34You might want to get that.
00:56:39God damn it!
00:56:40What did I do?
00:56:41If you don't play any of us, you're a bitch!
00:56:45You two watch your backs.
00:56:47I'm not done with you.
00:56:50Why didn't you tell me you were pregnant?
00:56:57Why didn't you tell me you were pregnant?
00:57:02It's none of your concern.
00:57:04You're still hiding the truth from me.
00:57:08I can give you whatever you want.
00:57:10You know I'm better than James.
00:57:12It's not a competition, Daniel.
00:57:14A child isn't going to prove anything.
00:57:17You're not with him anymore.
00:57:18I don't understand.
00:57:20He's done all these things to you.
00:57:21And you're still defending him.
00:57:23I don't know if I'm pregnant.
00:57:24I don't know if I'm pregnant.
00:57:25I don't know if I'm pregnant.
00:57:26I don't know if I'm pregnant.
00:57:27Because the way that he confronted me just now, I couldn't even stand up for myself.
00:57:33I feel like I'm the one in the wrong.
00:57:39I'm the cheater.
00:57:40So this is it then?
00:57:43You're just going to stay in this toxic place?
00:57:47James is a wreck.
00:57:50But I wasn't any better sneaking around with you.
00:57:53I deserve the consequences of my actions.
00:57:58Emily.
00:57:59Just answer me this.
00:58:02Do you ever read it?
00:58:05The decision you made all those years ago?
00:58:14I wish I could stay by your side.
00:58:23I've never regretted it.
00:58:39Not for a second.
00:58:53What the hell?
00:59:03Why are James' deaths coming to me?
00:59:08James, where the hell are you?
00:59:10In paradise, you idiot.
00:59:12Vivian actually knows how to please a man.
00:59:14And you?
00:59:15You're crawling to Daniel's bed with those pathetic skills of yours.
00:59:18I'm done with you.
00:59:19Let's get this divorce over with.
00:59:21You're leaving her?
00:59:24Finally, after two years.
00:59:27I guess it's really worth it.
00:59:28Two years?
00:59:30You two have been together for two years?
00:59:33What did you think?
00:59:35You're just pretty faced in me.
00:59:36I never would have married you if it wasn't for that.
00:59:38Why did you keep paying my mother's medical bills?
00:59:41I never put a dime into that black hole.
00:59:44By the way, I'm $20 million in debt now.
00:59:47What the hell are you talking about?
00:59:49You transferred the debts to me?
00:59:51Think of it as my parting gift.
00:59:53You've got Daniel wrapped around your finger, right?
00:59:55It shouldn't be hard to get him to pay it off.
00:59:57Spread those legs again.
00:59:59Dave, you're a disgusting scumbag!
01:00:02Just sign the papers.
01:00:03Done.
01:00:03A hundred million dollars.
01:00:17That's the price for messing around with my wife.
01:00:19Call it compensation.
01:00:20My lawyer would call it extortion, James.
01:00:23He'd tear this apart in a minute.
01:00:25Oh.
01:00:26I don't think he will.
01:00:30I've got plenty more where that came from.
01:00:32Imagine if they went viral.
01:00:33Keep swinging, Daniel.
01:00:37We'll change a thing.
01:00:38Either pay her up or I'll make sure everyone sees these.
01:00:40Think she'll stay with you after that?
01:00:42Dream on.
01:00:42Take it.
01:00:50Delete everything you have on her.
01:00:53And get out of our lives forever.
01:00:56Who would have thought Emily would mean so much to you?
01:00:58This could make things so much easier.
01:01:00Set me up!
01:01:08Threaten me for Emily again.
01:01:12And it will be your last regret.
01:01:14Trust me.
01:01:15There is no hell deep enough that I won't find you!
01:01:19You think just because you're a CEO you're untouchable?
01:01:22I'll expose you and that bitch.
01:01:24The so-called California billionaire.
01:01:26Stealing another man's wife?
01:01:28How do you think that's gonna play out?
01:01:30You won't get the chance, James.
01:01:34I'm gonna make sure you pay for everything!
01:01:38What's so special about her?
01:01:40Why are you doing this for her?
01:01:41I have no shame, James, on how you treat your wife.
01:01:46Why did she end up with you anyway?
01:01:50She never would have married me if it wasn't for a pathetic ex.
01:01:54What does her ex have to do with this?
01:01:57I lent her money to pay for that loser's medical bills.
01:02:00But that's why she married me.
01:02:03Steven Miller, Central District PD.
01:02:05You are under arrest for extortion intent to harm.
01:02:07Intent to harm?
01:02:09Look at my face!
01:02:11Tell it to the judge.
01:02:13I won't forget this.
01:02:14You two will always be trash!
01:02:22Emily.
01:02:23There's something I need to tell you.
01:02:25How could you do this to me?
01:02:26Do what?
01:02:27Everything about James, the affair, the debt, using me like some pawn.
01:02:35No, no, Emily, it wasn't like that.
01:02:37You don't understand, okay?
01:02:39Was it funny watching me look like a fool?
01:02:42I just, I needed to help you.
01:02:45You didn't, we didn't deserve this.
01:02:48Emily, where are you?
01:02:49I don't know who I am anymore.
01:02:52I've lost everything.
01:02:54I'm so tired.
01:02:55I can't do this anymore.
01:02:58Emily!
01:03:19Emily!
01:03:28Daniel, by the time you read this, I'll be gone.
01:03:34When we spoke, they had already made up my mind to end it all.
01:03:38I'm so tired.
01:03:39I've never really had a life of my own.
01:03:42Not since I married James.
01:03:44I never loved him.
01:03:46But I tried to be the wife he wanted.
01:03:50In the end, it was all a lie.
01:03:52It was the light of my life.
01:03:55I'm grateful for you.
01:03:56Always.
01:03:58I love you.
01:03:59I always have.
01:04:00But I can't let you carry the weight of me.
01:04:03We don't belong in the same world anymore.
01:04:06You deserve so much better.
01:04:09For our child, I'll be strong.
01:04:12Please don't come looking for me.
01:04:15No.
01:04:17We deserve each other.
01:04:20All I want is you.
01:04:21Hey, Mommy.
01:04:34Hey, Mom.
01:04:36Weren't you playing with Stacy?
01:04:37Stacy said she was going to ride her bike around the block.
01:04:42So I came back.
01:04:44Honey, why don't you let me teach you how to ride a bike?
01:04:47It's not fair.
01:04:49All my friends learn from their daddies.
01:04:51When can I meet mine?
01:04:52Maybe one day, sweetie.
01:04:56How about this?
01:04:58You go next door and ask Mrs. Baker for your favorite treat.
01:05:02Snow cone?
01:05:04And tell her I said you can have extra syrup.
01:05:07Yay!
01:05:07Yay!
01:05:13Emily.
01:05:14It's been five years.
01:05:17Where are you?
01:05:20What do you say?
01:05:32I've seen your pictures at my house.
01:05:36You probably saw me on TV.
01:05:39Can you teach me how to ride my bike?
01:05:42You don't know how?
01:05:44What's your name?
01:05:50Emma.
01:05:53Well, Emma, it's been a while for you.
01:05:56But I think we can manage.
01:06:02Okay.
01:06:03Hold on to the handlebars tight.
01:06:05I think you already know.
01:06:07Okay, okay.
01:06:08Pedal.
01:06:08Here we go!
01:06:08Pedal.
01:06:10All right.
01:06:10Good.
01:06:11Watch your balance.
01:06:12I'm going to go faster.
01:06:16You can do it.
01:06:18Whoa.
01:06:22I did it!
01:06:23You did it!
01:06:23I did it!
01:06:24You did it!
01:06:29Snowflake design.
01:06:30It's from the dress I designed for Emily years ago.
01:06:36Where'd you get that necklace?
01:06:38My mommy gave it to me.
01:06:39I've worn it since I was born.
01:06:41She said it was very special to her.
01:06:44Where's mommy?
01:06:46At the store.
01:06:47Can you take me there?
01:06:53Wow, let's go!
01:06:57Mommy!
01:06:57Look, it's me.
01:07:16Emma, why don't you go into the other room, okay?
01:07:20Okay, mommy.
01:07:23Daddy.
01:07:25Is it really you?
01:07:26Hey.
01:07:35Danny.
01:07:35Is it really you?
01:07:39Five long years.
01:07:44I've been searching for you.
01:07:47And now that I have you,
01:07:49I'm never going to let you go again.
01:07:52You.
01:07:52Our daughter.
01:07:57That's all that matters.
01:08:00I can only begin to understand
01:08:01the sacrifices you made for us.
01:08:04The medical bills.
01:08:05The money.
01:08:06James.
01:08:10I'll never let him hurt you again.
01:08:15I hurt you too.
01:08:17I was jealous.
01:08:19And I was cruel.
01:08:20And I'm so sorry.
01:08:21I'll do whatever it takes
01:08:24to make this right for our family.
01:08:28You've always been there for me.
01:08:33You kept helping me.
01:08:37Supporting me.
01:08:39You even paid my mom's bills
01:08:42when I couldn't.
01:08:42You don't have to thank me for this.
01:08:53I'm not the woman you deserve.
01:08:58I've been torn apart.
01:08:59You deserve so much more.
01:09:06So much better than this.
01:09:09Than me.
01:09:09You.
01:09:38You.
01:09:38Daniel, can you help me pick up Emma's toys? She's taking a nap.
01:09:53On it, honey. Hey, let me take that. The doctor said to stay off your feet. Let me help.
01:10:05Hold on, Mr. Oster.
01:10:08The doctor said we should wait until after the baby is born.
01:10:13Emily, you're like a drug. One touch, I could never get enough.
01:10:22I got you something.
01:10:30That's cute.
01:10:34No. It's this.
01:10:39What is it?
01:10:42My company, my properties, all my assets. They're yours. They've always been yours.
01:10:52After everything we've gone through, everything we're going to go through, I won't let anything
01:11:01in this world tear us apart again.
01:11:03Merry Christmas, Mr. Oster.
01:11:09Merry Christmas, Mrs. Oster.
01:11:12Merry Christmas, Mrs. Oster.
