00:00:00Zoe Campbell, will you marry me?
00:00:02Yes, it's Sting Cross.
00:00:05I'll marry you.
00:00:08No one gets close to my sons without wanting something.
00:00:12What do you want?
00:00:16Zoe, he loves me.
00:00:18I know he does.
00:00:19I've changed my face. I've come so far.
00:00:32I'll find out the truth about you, Audrey.
00:00:36And I'll make him pay.
00:00:44There's no turning back.
00:00:45I promise.
00:00:49I promise.
00:01:03Hi, I'm Zoe Campbell. I'm here for my interview.
00:01:11Take a seat. We'll call you when he's ready.
00:01:14Oh, okay.
00:01:19I have an interview later, Mother.
00:01:24I swear.
00:01:26Ashton, you throw away assistants
00:01:27as if they have expiration dates printed on them.
00:01:30Don't worry.
00:01:31It won't take long.
00:01:32This is the third time this month.
00:01:35And every time, it means thousands of dollars
00:01:38paid to shut up these blood-sucking flies on the wall.
00:01:42Come on.
00:01:43Boys just want to have fun.
00:01:45Not when you're taking over
00:01:46a publicly traded company in two weeks.
00:01:49You leave me no choice.
00:01:55You're not crossing me off the trust fund.
00:01:58I won't.
00:02:00If you get married.
00:02:02This company is your father's life's work.
00:02:05I'm not letting a weak link ruin it.
00:02:07I'm so sorry for interrupting.
00:02:15I never said I was selling.
00:02:18Xander.
00:02:20Wouldn't it make more sense
00:02:22if you didn't live in a penthouse?
00:02:24You'd also be closer to your PT,
00:02:26which Mother says is progressing.
00:02:29I wouldn't call taking five steps with a walker progressing.
00:02:33I should probably leave.
00:02:35Stay.
00:02:35I see my little brother
00:02:38has yet another young lady in his life.
00:02:40This is my new assistant.
00:02:42Her name is Zoe.
00:02:42I shall enjoy getting to know your acquaintance, Zoe.
00:02:47At least these next few months.
00:02:49Xander.
00:02:49I can fend for myself.
00:02:53What happened to you?
00:02:54Car accident.
00:02:55Our father died.
00:02:57Cross kingdom shattered overnight.
00:03:00What the press forgot to mention.
00:03:01You were there in the accident.
00:03:05Can we discuss the apartment?
00:03:08This meeting's completely been derailed.
00:03:12Zoe, perhaps it's best if Xander and I continue alone.
00:03:14Wait, Zoe.
00:03:22That's what I'm telling you now.
00:03:24If he doesn't bend you over one way,
00:03:28he'll break you another.
00:03:30Really, Xander?
00:03:31Thank you for your concern.
00:03:34But the last thing you need to worry about
00:03:35is me falling for your brother.
00:03:38I assure you,
00:03:40you should be more afraid of me.
00:03:43Interesting.
00:03:43Xander, please.
00:03:45I'm only trying to help you.
00:03:50I don't know about you,
00:03:51but I could use a drink.
00:03:58Oh, man.
00:04:01I guess you could say
00:04:02that my relationship with my brother
00:04:04is improving.
00:04:05I mean, at least you're willing to work on it.
00:04:07I know my brother,
00:04:09and I know he's charming.
00:04:11Most of those women
00:04:11were in your position.
00:04:13Maybe Xander secretly wants to be close to you.
00:04:16Yeah.
00:04:17We don't have to talk about my brother.
00:04:19Or business.
00:04:21What should we talk about?
00:04:24We don't have to talk about my brother.
00:04:26Or business.
00:04:28What should we talk about?
00:04:29You tricked my mother.
00:04:31And stood your own against Xander
00:04:33on the same day?
00:04:34That makes me a little...
00:04:36curious.
00:04:39You know they say curiosity
00:04:40is a dangerous thing.
00:04:43I'm not just another assistant
00:04:45you're going to go home with.
00:04:47I've had a lovely evening, though.
00:04:49And I'll see you tomorrow.
00:04:50I'll see you tomorrow.
00:05:10Curiosity isn't enough.
00:05:36I need his trust.
00:05:40I've changed my face.
00:05:42I've come so far.
00:05:43There's no turning back.
00:05:46I'll find out the truth about you, Audrey.
00:05:48And I'll make him pay.
00:05:50I promise.
00:05:55I can't believe she left with Ashton last night.
00:05:58You know what I say.
00:05:59You sleep with the right person.
00:06:00You get the right job.
00:06:02Oh my God, you spilled coffee everywhere.
00:06:10That was so embarrassing.
00:06:19Excuse me, ladies.
00:06:21I'm afraid I need to confiscate your key cards and escort you out.
00:06:24Wait, what?
00:06:25Why?
00:06:26There's a direct order from Mr. Cross.
00:06:28He fired us?
00:06:29I mean, he can't do that.
00:06:31I believe he can.
00:06:32Now, are you packing yourself, or do you need a hand?
00:06:39You messed up the wrong person.
00:06:47You lose your job.
00:06:48Zoe, get in.
00:07:03You're coming with me.
00:07:05Look, Mr. Cross, I appreciate what you did, but I can't be seen going home with you every night.
00:07:11It's unprofessional.
00:07:12Zoe, you're my assistant now.
00:07:14You're going to work when I need you to work, or I can save us both the trouble and fire you right now.
00:07:2126 hours, that would be a record even for me.
00:07:29Can I at least ask where we're going?
00:07:32On a date.
00:07:34What?
00:07:36Can I at least ask where we're going?
00:07:39On a date.
00:07:41What?
00:07:44Mr. Cross, I can't do this.
00:07:46Black Zoe, this isn't for you.
00:07:49This is for me, and a friend.
00:07:52You brought me on a date with another woman.
00:07:55Technically, three other women.
00:07:57Why would you do that?
00:07:59I trust your judgment.
00:08:01Tell me which one of these girls I should marry.
00:08:06I just love yachts.
00:08:08You know, you sail out from L.A., and the entire Atlantic Ocean is yours.
00:08:14The, uh, Pacific Ocean.
00:08:16What?
00:08:19Never mind, though.
00:08:20I actually don't own yacht.
00:08:22But you're rich!
00:08:24I'm sorry.
00:08:25This is a deal breaker.
00:08:26Maybe you should just go for your assistant.
00:08:29She's not maintenance.
00:08:33Okay.
00:08:35Babies, I mean, they're just so small.
00:08:37They're scrungy, and they look old.
00:08:39Like old people, but they're little, and they're babies, and they don't know how to talk to you.
00:08:43And so they start screaming, and they start crying, and then they poop, and it goes everywhere, and they throw up.
00:08:49And, like, honestly, it's the grossest thing I've ever experienced in my entire life.
00:08:53And not even that I experience babies, because I've never been around babies.
00:08:56Other than the fact that I used to be a baby, I just, I do not like babies, like, at all.
00:09:01I think children are one of the most amazing gifts of life.
00:09:04And you are so funny, Ashton.
00:09:06I mean, the reality is just that babies would also get in the way of my social life, and I have very high standards for, like, living.
00:09:16And so...
00:09:17Don't you think that's kind of selfish?
00:09:20I'm being a realist.
00:09:23And you're joking, right?
00:09:25A man with your Playboy reputation?
00:09:28You're honestly telling me that you want to settle down and have children.
00:09:32You are so funny.
00:09:38You are so funny.
00:09:40My mother said that you study literature.
00:09:43Have you, uh, read Fitzgerald?
00:09:46Who?
00:09:47Oh, no, I didn't go to school.
00:09:49Did I go to school with him?
00:09:50I don't think I went to school with him.
00:09:52No, no, no.
00:09:53Uh, Fitzgerald.
00:09:54The Great Gatsby.
00:09:57I love Leonardo DiCaprio.
00:09:59I love him.
00:10:00I was at a party, and he was, like, so hitting on me.
00:10:03It was so crazy.
00:10:05He was so short.
00:10:06It was so weird.
00:10:07Everything's been taken care of.
00:10:08Have a great night, are you right?
00:10:08Oh, you paid for it?
00:10:09Yeah.
00:10:10Oh, really?
00:10:10Oh, thank you.
00:10:11So, wait, let's go.
00:10:11Yeah.
00:10:12Where are we going?
00:10:12Um, I have another date.
00:10:15Can you order another way, like, on your way out?
00:10:18Absolutely.
00:10:18Okay.
00:10:20Tell your mom I said hi.
00:10:21I miss her.
00:10:22Yes, I will do.
00:10:22Okay.
00:10:29Absolutely.
00:10:30Cheers.
00:10:34So, um, Fitzgerald, you want kids?
00:10:39I have to say, I did not expect that.
00:10:42Let me guess.
00:10:43You thought I was some playboy who didn't care about anything, just like everybody else.
00:10:47The truth is, when people misunderstand you, and enough misunderstand you, you slowly forget
00:10:57who you are, too.
00:10:57This place is amazing.
00:11:02Xander and I designed this place.
00:11:06Wow.
00:11:08You were close.
00:11:10Yeah.
00:11:12Until we weren't.
00:11:16Do you have any siblings?
00:11:18No.
00:11:20Um...
00:11:22It's just me.
00:11:24You know...
00:11:26Two years ago, it was actually me
00:11:28who was supposed to be on that flight to Zurich with my father.
00:11:30Not Xander.
00:11:34Sometimes I wish it was me.
00:11:36It was late at night.
00:11:40The car was headed to the airport.
00:11:44But I didn't show up.
00:11:48Xander was the heir.
00:11:52He was raised to take over the company.
00:11:56But I ruined him.
00:11:58You didn't ruin him.
00:12:00No one's meant to be one thing.
00:12:02I mean...
00:12:04We all have a choice.
00:12:06Not in my world, Zoe.
00:12:08You saw for yourself.
00:12:10I can't even get married what I'd like.
00:12:12Well, maybe not win, but you get to choose who.
00:12:14That's the most important part.
00:12:16What if I chose you?
00:12:18No.
00:12:20No.
00:12:22No.
00:12:24No.
00:12:26No.
00:12:28No.
00:12:30Nope.
00:12:37No.
00:12:39What if I chose you?
00:12:40What?
00:12:45You heard me?
00:12:51Zoe Campbell?
00:12:53Will you marry me?
00:12:55This is the joke.
00:12:59You're joking.
00:13:01I've never been more serious.
00:13:05Listen, Eshin, you may be used to getting whatever you want whenever you want it.
00:13:09I don't want to marry you out of convenience.
00:13:12Zoe, women see me as a golden ticket to money and fame.
00:13:18My father's passed away.
00:13:20Xander sees me as competition and my mother sees me as a pawn to save the family business.
00:13:25But you, Zoe, you actually see me for who I really am.
00:13:31That was good.
00:13:33You should have used that with some of your blind dates.
00:13:38I have to get married or I'm crossed off the trust fund.
00:13:42Negotiate your price.
00:13:44I'll have it put together.
00:13:46I'll find out the truth about you, Audrey.
00:13:49And I'll make him pay.
00:13:55How do I look?
00:14:02The city's most eligible bachelor is off the market.
00:14:09My mom gets what she wants.
00:14:11Her most able-bodied son.
00:14:13Takes the throne and keeps his trust fund.
00:14:16And today's your big day.
00:14:18See you out there.
00:14:20Mrs. Cross.
00:14:33What a lovely bride you are.
00:14:38Ashton is a very lucky man.
00:14:43But you can cut the act with me, sweetheart.
00:14:46I know you and Ashton aren't really together.
00:14:51Well, if you really believed that, then why didn't you do something?
00:14:55I wanted to at first.
00:14:57But then I realized you're actually perfect.
00:15:02Why didn't you do something?
00:15:04I wanted to at first.
00:15:06But then I realized you're actually perfect.
00:15:11A working-class girl from the wrong side of the tracks.
00:15:15Pretty, but not too gorgeous.
00:15:19Sweet, but not too innocent.
00:15:25You're a real-life Cinderella.
00:15:29And the people love seeing a fairy tale come true.
00:15:33How do you know this will work?
00:15:36Because.
00:15:39It worked for Robert and me.
00:15:42My husband built this empire.
00:15:45But he wouldn't have been able to rule it without me.
00:15:48And now it's your turn.
00:15:50To stand next to Ashton on the throne.
00:15:53Support him.
00:15:55Help him.
00:15:57And play your part.
00:16:02I will, Mrs. Cross.
00:16:03Of course you will.
00:16:05And I intend to make sure of it.
00:16:16Stay with Ashton and you'll have everything you need.
00:16:19Title.
00:16:20Money.
00:16:22Leave him.
00:16:23Or harm him.
00:16:25Or his company's name.
00:16:26In any way.
00:16:29And not only won't you see a single penny.
00:16:32But I.
00:16:33Will personally destroy you.
00:16:38Well that's where you're wrong, Mrs. Cross.
00:16:41I don't want anything from him.
00:16:43I just.
00:16:44Want Ashton.
00:16:45I think it looks perfect.
00:16:46Don't you think so?
00:16:47Mom.
00:16:48I think it looks perfect.
00:16:49Don't you think so?
00:16:50Mom.
00:16:51The essence of marriage is love, trust, and honesty.
00:16:54The virtues that we as human beings share.
00:16:55Ashton Cross.
00:16:56Ashton Cross.
00:16:57Do you take this woman to be your wedded wife?
00:16:58I do.
00:16:59Zoe Campbell.
00:17:00Do you take this woman to be your wedded husband?
00:17:01To cherish for better?
00:17:02I love it.
00:17:03Mo.
00:17:04What is William's name?
00:17:05I love it.
00:17:06You.
00:17:07No?
00:17:08Don't you, mom?
00:17:10Mom.
00:17:11I love it.
00:17:12Don't you.
00:17:13Don't you?
00:17:14Don't you?
00:17:15Don't you.
00:17:16Don't you?
00:17:17I love it.
00:17:18You love it.
00:17:19I love it.
00:17:21I love it.
00:17:22You love it.
00:17:24Oh.
00:17:25And I love it.
00:17:26Cause I love it.
00:17:27You love it.
00:17:28So, I love it.
00:17:29I love it.
00:17:30or worse, for richer, for poorer, until death do you part?
00:17:37Yes, I do.
00:18:00As a token of your vows, you may exchange your symbol of love.
00:18:17By the power vested in me, by God, I now pronounce you husband and wife.
00:18:23You may kiss the bride.
00:18:48Uh-oh. I don't like that look.
00:18:55There seems to be a competition going on called Who Can Come Up With The Most Humiliating Article About Zoe Campbell.
00:19:01Zoe Campbell puts a ring on Ashton Cross a week after becoming his assistant.
00:19:06One can only imagine how good Mrs. Campbell is at impressing her boss.
00:19:13Why are you even reading that garbage?
00:19:16I'm just not used to seeing my name trending.
00:19:25See something you like?
00:19:27Nothing I haven't seen before.
00:19:29Fine. I'll meet you for dinner.
00:19:32Uh, uh, I think you're fine. Right where you are.
00:19:35Don't come down.
00:19:36OK. I'm in the room.
00:19:38So she's already on her boss.
00:19:40I'm in the room.
00:19:41Right here.
00:19:42Oh, oh, oh.
00:19:44Oh, oh my goodness.
00:19:44Oh, oh, oh.
00:19:45Oh, oh.
00:19:46Oh, oh.
00:19:46Oh, oh, oh, oh.
00:19:48Oh, oh, oh.
00:19:50Oh, oh, oh, oh.
00:19:53Oh, oh, oh, oh.
00:19:54Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh!
00:19:57I've never felt like this before, Zoey.
00:20:18Looked me in my eyes.
00:20:20Tell me you feel the same way.
00:20:22This marriage is just a piece of paper.
00:20:30It's a contract.
00:20:32Nothing more.
00:20:36Okay.
00:20:40Ashton, what happened to the woman at your work who killed herself?
00:20:48Did you know her?
00:20:49Um, no, not really.
00:20:52Uh, I know that she was nice.
00:20:55I saw her in the office a few times, but that was it.
00:20:57Why are you asking?
00:20:59Nothing.
00:21:00I, um, saw it on the news.
00:21:03Thought I was sad.
00:21:05Just wanted to know what the deal was.
00:21:08Yeah.
00:21:10Don't worry about the articles.
00:21:12I'll have it taken care of.
00:21:13You won't see anything tomorrow.
00:21:17Yeah.
00:21:18Don't mention it.
00:21:21Good night.
00:21:22That's right.
00:21:48We are receiving more information about the deadly shooting that took place before, involving two rival families heavily involved in the bomb.
00:21:56No names have been released before, due to the police are actively searching for suspects at launch, including certain members of the well-known Saviano and Mancini family.
00:22:06We'll be sure to update everyone on that story, and we'll see you next time.
00:22:11Back to you, Doctor.
00:22:13I really hope it wasn't you.
00:22:33I need to get rid of it all.
00:22:42Alright, well if I can't meet the guy yet, I'll at least have to tell me something about him.
00:22:53What do you guys do? Do you go dancing?
00:22:56Um, he can't really dance.
00:22:58What do you mean he can't dance? You love dancing.
00:23:00He just doesn't, okay?
00:23:02Zoe!
00:23:03I'm a long meeting, and I'm taking you to lunch.
00:23:09I wasn't expecting you on so soon.
00:23:12Well, can a guy take his girl out on a date?
00:23:15Yeah.
00:23:16But, I feel like there's something you're not telling me.
00:23:28You're a cheeseburger girl, aren't you? Not a lobster girl.
00:23:38What?
00:23:39I'm taking you to lunch, and I never really asked.
00:23:43Do you like cheeseburgers, or do you like lobster?
00:23:46Oh, sounds like we need to get some food in you pretty quick.
00:23:52Don't worry. I already made reservations at Il Flore.
00:23:55They have cheeseburgers and lobster.
00:23:57Look, Ashton, there's something I have to tell you.
00:24:02Wait, how can I be so stupid?
00:24:05I keep making these reservations, and I never even asked about your feelings.
00:24:10I keep showing you my world, but you haven't even had a chance to show me yours.
00:24:15Forget the reservations. Let's go wherever you want.
00:24:19Um, okay.
00:24:27Mmm.
00:24:36Now this is food.
00:24:45Is everything okay?
00:24:47Yeah.
00:24:48It's just...
00:24:51I don't do stuff like this often.
00:24:53You wouldn't believe it, but this is my first ever picnic.
00:24:56What? Like, not even as a kid?
00:24:58Between Latin, math, leadership class, we didn't really have time to be kids.
00:25:11Come on.
00:25:12Where are we going?
00:25:13Somewhere where we can be kids again.
00:25:19You want me to do this?
00:25:21Uh-huh.
00:25:22Zoe.
00:25:23I'm a 28-year-old man in an $8,500 suit.
00:25:26I'm not kidding on that.
00:25:28That's crazy.
00:25:30I married someone I knew less than 30 hours.
00:25:32I think I get to decide what's crazy or not.
00:25:36This?
00:25:37Yes, sit down.
00:25:41Is it your first time on a swing?
00:25:43No.
00:25:44Why would you think that?
00:25:45Oh my God, it is.
00:25:46Oh my God, it is.
00:25:47Okay.
00:25:48Look, you're just going to have to trust me, okay?
00:25:49I'm not going to let you fall.
00:25:50Okay.
00:25:51Don't forget.
00:25:52When I was little, my sister used to push me so high.
00:25:57And I would just focus on the sky.
00:26:00I felt like I was flying.
00:26:03Wow.
00:26:04So, Ashton Cross, what do you think about my world?
00:26:15It's chaotic.
00:26:17But wonderful.
00:26:25Hey, you two!
00:26:27This is clearly not the time or place.
00:26:29Children!
00:26:30God, get a room!
00:26:31You see anything you like?
00:26:45Nothing I haven't seen before.
00:26:51Now, that, I haven't seen before.
00:27:01I love what you've done with the place.
00:27:22None for me.
00:27:24Since when?
00:27:26Since.
00:27:29Holy shit, you're pregnant?
00:27:32Am I going to get to meet the guy before I leave town?
00:27:34It's complicated.
00:27:36He's complicated.
00:27:37And everything's happening so fast.
00:27:39And I'm scared that something might go wrong.
00:27:42You are happy though, right?
00:27:44I just worry about you living here without me now.
00:27:47Zoe, I'm fine.
00:27:49I mean, I don't know.
00:27:50You're just rushing into this relationship.
00:27:52And now, motherhood adds so much stress.
00:27:54I'm in a really good place now.
00:27:57I've been doing this new therapy.
00:27:59Yeah, but I mean, you're rushing into a relationship with this guy that is going to be the father of your child and I haven't even met him.
00:28:06Zoe.
00:28:09He loves me.
00:28:10I know he does.
00:28:13He loves me.
00:28:15I know he does.
00:28:18You'd be crazy not to.
00:28:19Audrey?
00:28:37No, Audrey, please!
00:28:39Zoe, are you okay?
00:28:41Zoe.
00:28:43You're screaming.
00:28:44I am.
00:28:46I am.
00:28:47I am.
00:28:49I am.
00:28:51I'm fine.
00:28:52I'm fine.
00:28:53I'm fine.
00:29:00I'm fine.
00:29:02Are you sure?
00:29:03I had a sister.
00:29:11Our parents died when we were young.
00:29:14So, you know, growing up in orphanages and foster homes,
00:29:21you never really feel like anything belongs to you.
00:29:25Snacks and toys.
00:29:26You share everything.
00:29:28And my sister, she, um, she developed this habit
00:29:33that any time she felt like something was, like, hers, truly hers,
00:29:39she would write her initials on it.
00:29:47She was all I had.
00:29:51And now that she's gone, it's just like I don't have anything.
00:29:55I totally understand.
00:29:58My dad was the only person alive who understood me.
00:30:11And after he died,
00:30:13I haven't had a real connection with anyone since.
00:30:17Anything remotely real,
00:30:20Xander would sabotage out of jealousy.
00:30:25What year?
00:30:26Now you can have something that's actually yours again.
00:30:45You can't blame this all on your brother.
00:30:59You need to learn to control your anger.
00:31:02It's consuming you.
00:31:04If you're not asking, I'm not answering.
00:31:06You know this is the only way.
00:31:08It should be me and you know it.
00:31:10And he had the nerve to offer me an advisor position
00:31:13to the company you took away from me.
00:31:15You think I want to hand the company over to him?
00:31:18You're right, Xander.
00:31:27It should be you.
00:31:29But we have the board and the shareholders to convince.
00:31:32And they're blind.
00:31:33All they see is you in a wheelchair.
00:31:36Fuck the board!
00:31:36Fuck the shareholders!
00:31:37This is what I mean!
00:31:39The rage!
00:31:40You were once committed to getting better.
00:31:45We can get over what happened.
00:31:48But you have to want it.
00:31:51He doesn't deserve everything.
00:31:53Your father would have wanted you both to be happy.
00:31:57And that's all I want for you.
00:31:59Are you sure you're not coming?
00:32:15Do I want to go to a charity gala
00:32:17that zombie rich people hold
00:32:18just to feel better about buying $3 million mansions
00:32:21and not paying taxes?
00:32:23Hmm.
00:32:24I'm good.
00:32:25Thank you, though.
00:32:26Hey, you better watch it.
00:32:28You're married to one of those rich, snobby people now.
00:32:31Come on, Zoe.
00:32:33We'll find some way to have fun.
00:32:42Go.
00:32:43You'll be late.
00:32:45Fine.
00:32:47I'll have a car to pick you up if you change your mind.
00:32:58Nothing I haven't seen before.
00:33:19Audrey.
00:33:20Audrey.
00:33:20Can you get the car ready, please?
00:33:33I am going to the gala.
00:33:36And, um...
00:33:38Don't let Mr. Cross know I'm coming.
00:33:41I want it to be a surprise.
00:33:42Care to grab your brother a drink?
00:33:50Okay.
00:33:58So, how's the married life?
00:34:03And how's my sister-in-law?
00:34:05She's good.
00:34:06You know, this isn't really her thing.
00:34:09That's good.
00:34:09You know, I was worried about her.
00:34:12People are going to say what they're going to say, but...
00:34:15She shouldn't let those rumors bother her.
00:34:17Rumors?
00:34:18What are you talking about?
00:34:20I took care of everything.
00:34:21This came out 30 minutes ago.
00:34:23An anonymous source leaked the prenuptial agreement between real estate mogul Ashton Cross and
00:34:30Zoe Campbell, showing that this is a well-constructed fake marriage.
00:34:35The news confirms suspicions that Zoe is a ploy for Ashton to finally seize the throne
00:34:40of Cross Enterprise.
00:34:41I'm just glad Zoe's not here to take the...
00:34:46Wow.
00:34:52Zoe?
00:34:55You told me you barely knew her.
00:35:01What are you talking about?
00:35:02I'm talking about this book.
00:35:04That's Xander's book.
00:35:05Zoe, we have something bigger going on right now.
00:35:07What do you mean it's Xander's book?
00:35:08How could he...
00:35:10Yeah, I can tell you're upset, but...
00:35:13Look at this.
00:35:15An anonymous source leaked the prenuptial agreement between real estate mogul Ashton Cross and
00:35:20Zoe Campbell, showing that this is a well-constructed fake marriage.
00:35:23I know that this is a sham marriage.
00:35:26But I'm falling for you.
00:35:27And I want to protect us.
00:35:31Protect you.
00:35:33I don't know why, but I believe you.
00:35:37I don't know if you're a psychopath or...
00:35:40If everything I thought I knew was wrong.
00:35:43I don't know what's going on with you.
00:35:45I am falling for you, but these people, they're going to eat you alive.
00:35:49Well, I like to think I act fast under pressure.
00:35:55Zoe, wait!
00:35:56Wait!
00:35:57Zoe, what are you doing?
00:36:03Good evening, ladies and gentlemen.
00:36:07I'm Zoe Cross.
00:36:08I'm sure you all know my husband, Ashton Cross.
00:36:11Now, I'm aware that many are questioning the authenticity of our marriage, and I'm here to
00:36:19confirm that it's true.
00:36:23Our marriage was a sham.
00:36:25I signed a prenup agreeing to marry Ashton because I thought that it would bring me wealth and fame, but I was wrong.
00:36:35It turned out to be so much more than that.
00:36:40He isn't just this spoiled rich kid, playboy, heartbreaker.
00:36:46Everything people say is just to sell stories.
00:36:53He's actually kinder, and stronger, and better.
00:37:00And I want him to know that I'm falling for him, too.
00:37:06I know it's so much.
00:37:28So much is important.
00:37:30Oh, my God.
00:38:00I can feel you staring at me.
00:38:23I haven't felt like this in a while.
00:38:27I feel like myself.
00:38:30Sometimes, when I look in the mirror, I don't recognize myself.
00:38:37When I see you, I see you.
00:38:44You promise?
00:38:47You cross my heart.
00:39:00Hey, Chad.
00:39:06Of course.
00:39:10What can I do for you?
00:39:11I know that you are the anonymous source and that you sent the press our marriage contract.
00:39:19I don't want to make a deal.
00:39:22Why would I do something like that?
00:39:24It doesn't matter.
00:39:25And I don't care.
00:39:26But for whatever reason you're doing it, you're coming between Ashton and I.
00:39:31You mean your scam of a marriage?
00:39:33It was.
00:39:34But it's real now.
00:39:36I just want you and Ashton to repair this relationship so that we can all be happy.
00:39:43What's your angle here?
00:39:44There's no angle.
00:39:45I just...
00:39:46I'm going through my own trauma.
00:39:47And there are a lot of things that I wish I could go back and say differently to my sister...
00:39:54I know you have a history.
00:40:01And I know that it's difficult.
00:40:03But it's worth making amends.
00:40:06Does he know I leaked this story to the press?
00:40:09I don't know.
00:40:10He's been through enough already.
00:40:11whatever hurt that you've caused each other can be forgiven what if the things you've done
00:40:29aren't forgivable the past doesn't matter just what you do now matters
00:40:36you fell for him i got to know him maybe you should too
00:40:45maybe
00:40:49i really hope that you and your brother can work things out
00:41:07i'd like nothing more than to get closer to you zoe

00:43:56i'm a private detective not a sniffer dog
00:44:03i'm in
00:44:25If you're thinking of having one of those, I won't object.
00:44:44You handled the crisis. Wow.
00:44:47I was sure you'd run away with your tail between your legs.
00:44:51But you stayed.
00:44:52But what for?
00:44:57Now I know no one gets close to my sons without wanting something.
00:45:03The question is, what do you want?
00:45:17Voila.
00:45:18Voila.
00:45:21What do you want?
00:45:22You're right, Lauren. I think I did want something from Ashton, but I don't know that I want it now.
00:45:33I recognize that look on your face. It happened to me with Robert, Sander and Ashton's father. I fell in love with a man I hated.
00:45:49It was an arranged marriage and I didn't want to be in it. I got to truly know him. And it changed me.
00:45:59Don't stare at me like that, Zoe. Don't stare at me like that, Zoe. You might think I'm a witch whose heart is made of stone, but I still know what love is.
00:46:12Don't stare at me like that, Zoe. You know, I didn't want to, Zoe. I tried to be in it. I felt like a man, I wasn't here, and I thought I was going to be in it. I'm not going to be in it. I'm going to be in it. I don't know.
00:46:24what's up i found something and i think you should see this
00:46:29she's audrey's sister she changed her identity her face just to get close to you why think about
00:46:42it ashton she came into your life out of nowhere three months after audrey's death
00:46:46she lied to you married you manipulated you shared a bed with you there's only one thing
00:46:53that drives people this far revenge i'm sorry little brother but it looks like it's time to
00:47:02wake up from this dream you're just saying that because you want me to help run your precious
00:47:10company yes i was robert's wife and his company is very important to me but i'm also a mother
00:47:18i can see ashton cares about you more than the others
00:47:26he has calmed his playboy antics i can see he's a better person with you
00:47:35there was one woman before but she disappeared who knows why
00:47:40she probably couldn't handle the pressure of being across
00:47:43there was one woman before but she disappeared who knows why she probably couldn't handle the
00:47:51pressure of being across love isn't logical zoe and loving ashton is probably the most illogical
00:47:58thing you could do that doesn't make it wrong
00:48:05wait there was another woman a serious relationship what what happened to her
00:48:12oh no zoe you probably got sick of her like all the other girls
00:48:18you're here now she's gone forever and for some reason he likes keeping you around
00:48:23so you're my only hope your only hope for what a family legacy zoe xander can't give me a grandchild
00:48:34but ashton can ashton is the future of this company and this family xander's reign ended in that car
00:48:42accident everything is working according to plan at least for ashton
00:49:01ashton you actually believe it that i caught audrey i don't want to
00:49:08too but i see it now
00:49:13the ac tattoo the high profile lover
00:49:18the pregnancy it has to be you there's no other explanation
00:49:29wait audrey was pregnant you didn't know did you
00:49:38you
00:49:42when you pushed her off the balcony
00:49:44i never slept with audrey she was with someone else
00:49:49stop lying to me you've been lying to me i wanted to tell you but how do you tell someone
00:49:57that you completely changed what you looked like to avenge your sister's death you made me fall in love

00:52:22Now is the perfect time.
00:52:24I know where Zoe is.
00:52:25I'll send you the address, but you better hurry if you want to say goodbye.
00:52:31What are you talking about?
00:52:33Everyone has their tipping point, Ash.
00:52:36All I need to do is give her one tiny push.
00:52:42Xander, if you hurt her, I'll kill you.
00:52:47You've already done that, Ash.
00:52:49Two years ago.
00:52:53Xander.
00:52:53Xander.
00:52:54Xander.
00:53:02Paternity test results.
00:53:09A family legacy, Zoe.
00:53:13AC.
00:53:14Xander can't give me a grandchild, but Ashton can.
00:53:17Xander calls.
00:53:18Xander calls.
00:53:30Xander calls.
00:53:30He can't really dance.
00:53:46What do you mean he can't dance?
00:53:47He loves dancing.
00:53:48He just doesn't, okay?
00:53:53Audrey betrayed me.
00:53:56What are you doing here?
00:53:57And so did Ashton.
00:54:00I guess some curses do run in the family.
00:54:04Get inside.
00:54:05I love you, Xander.
00:54:09I love you, Audrey.
00:54:12You're mine.
00:54:13Now and forever.
00:54:15Come on, help me out.
00:54:17Let me put this necklace on my future wife.
00:54:23Turn around.
00:54:24Turn around.
00:54:24Xander, what are you doing?
00:54:39I never told you, because I was ashamed.
00:54:43I can't have kids.
00:54:46You want to fool me into being your crippled rich husband?
00:54:48Xander, please.
00:54:50I have proof.
00:54:52It's your baby.
00:54:53Our baby.
00:54:54Our baby.
00:54:58Get inside.
00:55:09Get inside.
00:55:14Happy birthday.
00:55:26Oh, Xander.
00:55:30Wow.
00:55:31This is an amazing gift.
00:55:34But I was hoping that maybe I could ask for something else.
00:55:39Anything.
00:55:40Well, I was thinking that maybe it was time that we take our relationship public so that we don't have to keep this a secret.
00:55:53You're pregnant.
00:55:54You're pregnant.
00:55:58We're going to have the baby.
00:55:59I never thought I'd come to this.
00:56:03But you're happy, right?
00:56:05Of course.
00:56:09I'm so happy.
00:56:12Welcome to the grand finale, little brother.
00:56:14I don't know about you, but I'm dying to see how this all turns out.
00:56:20One more step and she's dead.
00:56:22It's not her fault what happened.
00:56:23It's mine.
00:56:24Don't worry about it.
00:56:25You're going to get yours.
00:56:26I'm going to have my payback.
00:56:27I'm going to take back everything you took from me.
00:56:31My job, my title, my reputation.
00:56:35But in order to do that, I got to make sure you never get in my way again.
00:56:41You see two sisters dying in the same apartment.
00:56:46That's going to lead to suspicion.
00:56:48But if I can connect...
00:56:49Have you lost your mind?
00:56:50Let me fucking finish.
00:56:51If I can connect him to the same men...
00:56:58You killed Audrey?
00:57:04You killed Audrey?
00:57:06You did.
00:57:08Soon the B.C.U.O. turns out to be a maniac.
00:57:12Brutally killing his mistress and his wife.
00:57:15After he kills her, he turns himself in.
00:57:18Or puts the gun to his own head.
00:57:21I don't care.
00:57:23You choose, little brother.
00:57:25You can't get away with it.
00:57:26Of course I will.
00:57:28All I got to do is convince the shareholders.
00:57:31You'd be surprised how quickly a bunch of lies can turn into the truth.
00:57:36But enough of that.
00:57:37We don't have all night.
00:57:38Ladies first.
00:57:46Xander, you don't have to do this.
00:57:47Shut the fuck up.
00:57:49Just shut the fuck up.
00:57:51Please.
00:57:52You're too late, little brother.
00:57:54Two years too late.
00:57:56You chose this.
00:57:58You could have lived your life with someone who truly loved you, but instead you murdered her.
00:58:01She never loved me.
00:58:02She had an AC tattoo.
00:58:04She loved you so much that she marked herself as yours.
00:58:07She betrayed me with another man!
00:58:10Did you not see the paternity test?
00:58:12It's all right here.
00:58:19If you kill me now, the police will come and they'll find me and they'll link me to Audrey and they'll know that you murdered her while she was pregnant with your baby.
00:58:28You're fucking lying.
00:58:29You should have trusted Audrey.
00:58:33But you were so blinded by your jealousy and your anger that you killed someone who truly loved you.
00:58:40You're a liar, Zoe Campbell.
00:58:59And you're dead.
00:59:04Audrey Hale.
00:59:06Mother.
00:59:0899.9% match with...
00:59:13Alexandra Cross.
00:59:17Father.
00:59:19Oh Jesus.
00:59:20What have I done?
00:59:23What have I done?
00:59:26I'm so sorry, Audrey.
00:59:28So that we don't have to keep this a secret.
00:59:35You're pregnant.
00:59:36Yeah.
00:59:37We're gonna have a baby.
00:59:40I'm so sorry.
00:59:43No, no, no!
00:59:58I'm so sorry.
01:00:03Hm.
01:00:08Okay.
01:00:10Hey.
01:00:12Ready?
01:00:14Ready as I'll ever be.
01:00:19Oh gosh.
01:00:21Okay, okay, okay.
01:00:22One.
01:00:23Two.
01:00:24Three.
01:00:27We're having a girl.
01:00:29It's our girl.
01:00:31We're having a baby girl.
01:00:34I know the perfect name.
01:00:36Mm-hmm.
01:00:37Audrey.
01:00:40I know the perfect name.
01:00:42Mm-hmm.
01:00:43Audrey.
01:00:46That's perfect.
01:00:50You want a swing?
01:00:52Don't let me fall.
01:00:55Okay?
01:00:56Cross my heart.
01:00:57Ready?
01:00:58Ready?
01:00:59Okay.
01:01:00Here you go.
01:01:06How does it feel?
01:01:07Like I'm flying.
01:01:22I'm swimming.
01:01:23I'm swimming.
01:01:24That's what I'm swimming.
01:01:25I'm swimming.
01:01:26No.
01:01:28I'm swimming.
01:01:30I'm swimming.
01:01:32Okay?
01:01:34Bye.
01:01:35Amen.
