00:00:00Surrogacy? What's surrogacy?
00:00:02Harvard Business School.
00:00:04MBA. Top of class.
00:00:06As for...
00:00:08intimate matters,
00:00:11I can assure you performance has never been an issue.
00:00:15Three years I've loved him.
00:00:17Everyone tells me Ethan will never change.
00:00:20If they don't see the real Ethan,
00:00:22I know he loves me.
00:00:30Oh my god!
00:00:34Three years I've wasted on you!
00:00:37I'm not gonna let you take this from me too.
00:00:39I don't need a man to make my dreams come true.
00:00:42One appointment, one sperm donor,
00:00:44I can have a baby of my own.
00:00:49Understand this clearly.
00:00:51We'll be parents, nothing more.
00:00:58Surrogacy.
00:00:59Five generations of Crawford dignity
00:01:02destroyed by tabloid gossip.
00:01:06Adrian,
00:01:07I can make all of this disappear.
00:01:10Perfect couple, right?
00:01:11Until...
00:01:13All you have to do is remember
00:01:16who you really belong with.
00:01:19That's for every lie you just told.
00:01:21Your fault!
00:01:22You need to build a plan to get rid of it.
00:01:26Get up!
00:01:27Three years.
00:01:37Three years I've loved him.
00:01:39Everyone tells me Ethan will never change.
00:01:41That a man like him only loves himself.
00:01:43But they don't see the real Ethan.
00:01:48I know he loves me.
00:01:51Thank you so much.
00:01:53I really, really appreciate it.
00:01:56Tonight, it will be our big night.
00:01:58And I'll give him all of me.
00:02:00We'll make a beautiful baby together.
00:02:03A family of our own.
00:02:17I'm so sorry.
00:02:19I'll give him all of you.
00:02:20I'll give him all of you.
00:02:21I'll give him all of you.
00:02:22I'll give him all of you.
00:02:22I'll give him all of you.
00:02:23I'll give him all of you.
00:02:23I'll give him all of you.
00:02:24I'll give him all of you.
00:02:24I'll give him all of you.
00:02:25I'll give him all of you.
00:02:25I'll give him all of you.
00:02:26I'll give him all of you.
00:02:26I'll give him all of you.
00:02:27I'll give him all of you.
00:02:27I'll give him all of you.
00:02:28I'll give him all of you.
00:02:29I'll give him all of you.
00:02:30I'll give him all of you.
00:02:31I'll give him all of you.
00:02:32I'll give him all of you.
00:02:33I'll give him all of you.
00:02:34I don't know.
00:03:04I don't know.
00:03:34Oh, my God.
00:03:36Voila, you're early.
00:03:39Why so shocked, babe?
00:03:41You're always talking about wanting to try new things.
00:03:45Come and join us.
00:03:48Three years.
00:03:54Three years.
00:03:55I wasted on you.
00:03:58God, I'm such an idiot.
00:04:01I was thinking I was going to have a baby with you.
00:04:05Baby?
00:04:07Sweetheart.
00:04:08You wouldn't even put out after three years and now you're thinking about playing mommy.
00:04:13Though, if you're finally ready to spread those legs,
00:04:19these lovely ladies can show you how it's done.
00:04:23Screw you.
00:04:24You.
00:04:36I'm not going to let you take this from me, too.
00:04:42You know what?
00:04:43I don't need a man to make my dreams come true.
00:04:46One appointment, one sperm donor, I can have a baby of my own.
00:04:50Six months to produce an heir or I lose control of Crawford Industries to my nephew.
00:05:04Everything I've built over the last decade, gone.
00:05:08The surrogate candidates are all throwers, so I believe you're educated.
00:05:14Impeccable health histories.
00:05:15I don't need their resumes, Thompson.
00:05:17I need someone who won't turn this into a media circus.
00:05:20Find me someone who knows your place and will disappear after delivery.
00:05:30Ah!
00:05:30Ah!
00:05:38Miss,
00:06:08Are you here for the interview?
00:06:10The interview. Yes, of course.
00:06:24Please sit.
00:06:30Right, um, let's get started.
00:06:34Hey, um, education background.
00:06:38Excuse me?
00:06:40And I'm gonna need a full medical history, specifically genetic disorders.
00:06:46Do you work out?
00:06:48I mean, you look acceptable.
00:06:58Do you have any idea who I am?
00:07:02I'm just trying to be thorough.
00:07:04It's about creating a healthy baby after all.
00:07:08Why are attractive men so full of themselves?
00:07:14I don't care if you're Brad Pitt.
00:07:16I need to know your reproductive history.
00:07:18So, sexual partners in the last six months?
00:07:22Mr. Crofton.
00:07:24I can show her out.
00:07:26Thompson, leave us.
00:07:31What are you doing?
00:07:32Making sure this interview is more thorough.
00:07:36Harvard Business School, MBA, top of class.
00:07:48No family history of genetic disorders.
00:07:50I work you out five times a week.
00:07:52As for intimate matters, I can assure you performance has never been an issue.
00:08:04Now Thompson is gone, are you comfortable to share yours?
00:08:06Um, yes.
00:08:08Of course.
00:08:12I'm perfectly healthy too.
00:08:14No genetic disorders, and I get regular checkups.
00:08:18Um, I've even been taking prenatal vitamins.
00:08:24You really do seem like the perfect match.
00:08:27Yes.
00:08:28Good.
00:08:29Now, regarding compensation, what figure did you have in mind?
00:08:34Well, I was thinking around eight hundred dollars.
00:08:40Eight hundred.
00:08:42I expected the fee to be significantly higher.
00:08:47I know, I know it's not a lot of money, but considering the quality, um, I could, I can help, I can do paperwork, whatever.
00:08:56I can help them.
00:08:57Bring in the contracts.
00:09:06All of this?
00:09:08Seriously?
00:09:10Take your time to review, but the key point is after birth, the child stays with me.
00:09:16No contact.
00:09:19You want to keep my baby?
00:09:21Are you insane?
00:09:27That's standard procedure for surrogacy arrangements.
00:09:30Surrogacy?
00:09:31Surrogacy.
00:09:32The position you're interviewing for.
00:09:35Interview?
00:09:36I'm hated by sperm.
00:09:38You came to what?
00:09:40I thought you were a donor.
00:09:42That's why I was asking you all the questions about the history and stuff.
00:09:45I thought you were here to be my surrogate.
00:09:49Right.
00:09:50Um, well, I guess, I guess I've, um, made a mistake, so I'm just gonna go.
00:09:55Wait!
00:09:59A million dollars.
00:10:01For carrying my child.
00:10:02I want my own baby, Mr. Crawford, not somebody else's.
00:10:10Ah!
00:10:12You might need that.
00:10:20Clean this up.
00:10:22Bring in the next.
00:10:23Hello?
00:10:30Miss Reed.
00:10:32Your father!
00:10:33You need to come now.
00:10:35Ok, I'm coming here.
00:10:53Doctor, how is he? How is my father?
00:11:00The cancer is spread aggressively without immediate treatment.
00:11:03Then do something. Save him.
00:11:07Is there a treatment you can do?
00:11:09There is a new treatment.
00:11:11Okay, then let's do it.
00:11:13But maybe it's quite expensive.
00:11:15How much?
00:11:16Around one million dollars.
00:11:18A million dollars?
00:11:20Yes.
00:11:20Can I get a loan or something?
00:11:25Actually, this is a new technology.
00:11:27And there is no loan policy. Sorry.
00:11:28I'm sorry.
00:11:34I'm sorry.
00:11:35Oh, my God.
00:12:05This is the last batch.
00:12:10Yes, sir.
00:12:11The blonde want to know about ring sizes.
00:12:15And brunette asked about moving in.
00:12:19And the redhead...
00:12:20All of them want the Crawford name.
00:12:24No one's qualified.
00:12:27She was refreshing.
00:12:30No pretense.
00:12:31No schemes.
00:12:32But she wasn't even here for surrogacy.
00:12:36Sometimes the best candidate isn't looking for the job.
00:12:51Hello.
00:12:52I'm Adrian Crawford.
00:13:05I've been thinking...
00:13:06I've been thinking...
00:13:07About yesterday, I may have been a bit hasty.
00:13:13You're reconsidering.
00:13:14Don't sound so smug about it.
00:13:16I have my reasons.
00:13:18As do I.
00:13:21I'd like to propose a...
00:13:24Modification to the original terms.
00:13:27What kind of modification?
00:13:29Joint custody.
00:13:30You wouldn't be just carrying the child.
00:13:32You'd be the baby's mother.
00:13:34Why would you agree to that?
00:13:35You're honest.
00:13:37Direct.
00:13:38No hidden agenda.
00:13:41Qualities I want in my child's mother.
00:13:42So I'd really get to be a part of the baby's life?
00:13:45Yes.
00:13:46But understand this clearly.
00:13:48We'll be parents.
00:13:49Nothing more.
00:13:51No romantic entanglements.
00:13:53No emotional expectations.
00:13:57Don't flutter yourself.
00:14:00God, rich man in their egos.
00:14:01Father.
00:14:07The board is getting impatient.
00:14:10Have you considered the arrangements I suggested?
00:14:13I've already made my own plans.
00:14:15Adrian, if you're thinking of using some random surrogate to produce an heir, forget it.
00:14:22The Crawford name means something.
00:14:24I won't let it be tainted by...
00:14:27I've already chosen my fiancée.
00:14:29What?
00:14:30We'll discuss this at dinner.
00:14:33Did I just get promoted from surrogate to fiancée?
00:14:41Correct me if I'm wrong, but didn't you just say, just parents, nothing more?
00:14:48The situation requires adaptation.
00:14:53Hmm.
00:14:54Is that CEO talk for I change my mind?
00:14:56If we need a convincing story, you'll be staying at my house during the pregnancy.
00:15:01And after the baby comes?
00:15:03We'll arrange for an amicable separation, continue parenting, and I'll arrange for any additional compensation for the complexity.
00:15:12The original amount is fine, but I am going to need it soon.
00:15:17Welcome to the family, Miss Reed.
00:15:32I think my whole apartment could fit in this entryway.
00:15:54Well, well, well.
00:15:56Missed me so much, you tracked me down.
00:15:58Can't get over me, huh?
00:16:06Following me here like a lost puppy?
00:16:09Following you?
00:16:09Why would I...
00:16:10What are you doing here?
00:16:13Sweetheart, this is my family's house.
00:16:16I'm sure you know that.
00:16:18Hmm.
00:16:18You never let me have sex with you.
00:16:21But look at you now, sneaking into my house.
00:16:24Finally realize what you're missing, baby.
00:16:27Get your hands off me, you creep.
00:16:30Playing hard to get used to be cute, but now?
00:16:33Come on, baby.
00:16:34We both know this is what you came here for.
00:16:38Uncle, what are you doing?
00:16:40Get your filthy hands off my fiancée.
00:16:44Your...
00:16:45Your...
00:16:45What?
00:16:47Fiancée?
00:16:50Fiancée?
00:16:50How could she be your fiancée?
00:16:52She's just...
00:16:52Watch your mouth.
00:16:54Show some respect to your future aunt.
00:16:59This is crazy.
00:17:01You seriously don't know.
00:17:02I won't repeat myself.
00:17:04Stay away from my fiancée.
00:17:06Want more word?
00:17:08You can kiss that trust fund.
00:17:09Goodbye.
00:17:10Goodbye.
00:17:10Goodbye.
00:17:10Goodbye.
00:17:20You alright?
00:17:29Yeah.
00:17:30So, Ethan.
00:17:32He's your nephew.
00:17:34Then he's your...
00:17:37Well, he was...
00:17:38He's kinda...
00:17:40He was my boyfriend.
00:17:42I mean, ex-boyfriend.
00:17:43I mean, like, extremely ex-ex-boyfriend.
00:17:47I see.
00:17:48Tom, so we'll bring your things in shortly.
00:17:53Sorry.
00:17:56Um, so...
00:17:58Where am I staying?
00:18:01Here.
00:18:04What?
00:18:05Unless you prefer explaining to the staff why the happy couple sleep in separate rooms.
00:18:10Oh, of course.
00:18:12Fake engagement.
00:18:12Real roommates.
00:18:16Don't worry.
00:18:18I'll be a perfect gentleman.
00:18:45What are you doing?
00:18:46This is the line.
00:18:49Don't cross it.
00:18:51Ever.
00:18:52For sure.
00:18:54Good.
00:18:55Good.
00:18:55My plan worked perfectly.
00:19:17Wait.
00:19:18How did I...
00:19:19Sir, are you okay?
00:19:30Fine.
00:19:32Continue.
00:19:41Stay on your side.
00:19:43Layla, wake up.
00:19:51Layla, wake up.
00:19:51Layla, wake up.
00:19:55Layla, please.
00:19:56Layla, please.
00:19:56Layla, wake up.
00:19:57Layla, wake up.
00:19:57Layla, wake up.
00:19:57Layla, wake up.
00:19:58Layla, wake up.
00:19:59Layla, wake up.
00:20:00Layla, wake up.
00:20:02Layla, wake up.
00:20:03Layla, wake up.
00:20:04Layla, wake up.
00:20:05Layla, wake up.
00:20:06Layla, wake up.
00:20:07Layla, wake up.
00:20:08Layla, wake up.
00:20:09Layla, wake up.
00:20:10Layla, wake up.
00:20:12Sorry, didn't see you there.
00:20:37You're always in the way.
00:20:45Ah, my brother's mysterious fiancée.
00:20:50Mrs. Crawford.
00:20:51Catherine, please, we're family now, supposedly.
00:20:56Helen, tea, please.
00:20:57Yes, Mrs. Crawford.
00:21:02So tell me, dear, how did you and Adrian meet exactly?
00:21:07Through mutual friends.
00:21:09Oh, really?
00:21:12Mutual friends?
00:21:16Dear, what friend of Adrian's would possibly move in your social circles?
00:21:22Unless this is more of a business arrangement?
00:21:25I'm sorry?
00:21:27Well, a girl of your position, surely some negotiation was involved?
00:21:33The only negotiation was whether I would take his last name or keep my own.
00:21:46Next weekend is our family dinner, and as Adrian's fiancée, your presence is required.
00:21:53I'd be honored.
00:21:55Hmm.
00:21:56Perfect.
00:21:57I'm sure you can find something more appropriate to wear.
00:22:04You can go now.
00:22:08I mean, you're not going now.
00:22:09All right.
00:22:10All right.
00:22:11I'm sure you're going to have this money.
00:22:12All right.
00:22:13I'm sure you're going to have this money for your family dinner.
00:22:15I'm sure you're going to have this money.
00:22:16Excuse me, Miss Rie.
00:22:17I need to clean.
00:22:18Of course.
00:22:19Let me just...
00:22:20This...
00:22:21This...
00:22:22Is this what you're wearing to the family dinner?
00:22:23Is this what you're wearing to the family dinner?
00:22:28How creative.
00:22:31Must be hiding your family.
00:22:33Watching you chase after rich men.
00:22:36Let me help you with this.
00:22:38The dress!
00:22:40How clumsy of me.
00:22:42You did that on purpose.
00:22:44Do you think you can really marry Mr. Crawford?
00:22:47You're just some trash trying to climb the social ladder.
00:22:53Mr. Crawford, she just attacked me.
00:22:59I was trying to help with it.
00:23:01Get out!
00:23:02But I was just-
00:23:03One more word and you're fired.
00:23:06Get out.
00:23:14What happened?
00:23:15Nothing.
00:23:16I need some space.
00:23:18I want to stay in the guest room tonight.
00:23:20Lila, you don't have to do that.
00:23:21I need some space.
00:23:25You take the bed.
00:23:26I'll take the sofa.
00:23:29I miss you so much, Daddy.
00:23:31Don't worry about me, okay?
00:23:33As long as we can get you better,
00:23:35I won't let their words get to me.
00:23:37I promise.
00:23:39Lila, what happened?
00:23:41What should I do?
00:23:51How's the happy couple?
00:23:56How's the happy couple?
00:24:06Oh, that's awkward.
00:24:10Just a small thing.
00:24:12Um, that is not a small pinch.
00:24:14It's okay.
00:24:15I'm here.
00:24:17You're safe.
00:24:20Perfect timing for the injection.
00:24:22in the shower.
00:24:25We have to do the fridge.
00:24:26I love it.
00:24:28But we don't do the fridge.
00:24:29I will see that mine.
00:24:30We're not SURPRISE.
00:24:31I will see you here.
00:24:32But I'm like, man.
00:24:34I love you.
00:24:35I love you.
00:24:36I love you.
00:24:38I love you.
00:24:41I love you.
00:24:42I love you.
00:24:43I love you.
00:24:45I love you.
00:24:46I love you.
00:24:47Focus, this is just a simple medical procedure, just pretend she's not right outside.
00:25:17Mr. Crawford, is everything okay in there?
00:25:22Yeah, I'm fine. I just need some assistance.
00:25:26Oh, do you need my help?
00:25:28No, I didn't mean...
00:25:30Are you sure? Honestly, it's fine. I can come in if you need me to.
00:25:34Come in.
00:25:36So, you want to help?
00:25:48Of course, what do you need me to...
00:25:50Oh, you're...
00:25:55Oh, you're...
00:25:57I'm so sorry. I didn't realize. I'm just gonna just go somewhere. I just need you somewhere very far.
00:26:10Well, that was helpful.
00:26:12Are you okay?
00:26:18Yeah. Dr. Anderson said that the hormone shots would hurt, but it's...
00:26:23It's causing you pain.
00:26:24Yeah, it's a little uncomfortable, but I mean, it will pass.
00:26:29Oh.
00:26:30Here.
00:26:32Oh, okay.
00:26:34Thanks.
00:26:47Well, the hormone shots were a part of the agreement, and any resulting pain is technically a work-related issue.
00:26:56And as your employer, I have a duty of care.
00:26:59Okay.
00:27:02Okay.
00:27:03Uh...
00:27:29Purely professional care.
00:27:33Purely professional, huh?
00:27:50Adrian.
00:27:53Um, about this weekend.
00:27:55I'm sorry, there's an emergency in Atlanta.
00:27:57The merge is falling apart.
00:27:59Top's in.
00:28:00Get the jet ready in 20.
00:28:01Your family invited me to dinner.
00:28:05Guess I'll handle it on my own.
00:28:11Well, I don't suppose we should expect punctuality from a person who's probably never had a proper watch in her life.
00:28:18I introduce him to the Lawson heiress, the senator's daughter.
00:28:23I don't understand why he picked this gold digger from God knows where.
00:28:28What did you say she did, Ethan?
00:28:30Retail?
00:28:31Worse.
00:28:32A wannabe writer.
00:28:34She probably thought that landing a Crawford would be her best-selling story.
00:28:41Well, I have tried to be welcoming.
00:28:44I had the chef prepare her place setting and everything.
00:28:47She probably couldn't figure out which work to do, though.
00:28:49I apologize for the sight delay.
00:29:04My, my, my.
00:29:09Trying so hard to look the part.
00:29:12James, do make sure none of the silver goes missing after dinner.
00:29:16I suppose Adrian's credit card is getting some good use.
00:29:19And although money can buy designer clothes, it can't buy breeding.
00:29:24Actually, I made this dress myself.
00:29:27Oh, darling.
00:29:32Woo.
00:29:33A seamstress for a daughter-in-law?
00:29:35How quaint.
00:29:37At least we know who's going to be mending Adrian socks.
00:29:43I may not have been born into privilege, but I was raised with something much more valuable.
00:29:50Integrity.
00:29:51Integrity.
00:29:52Is that what you call seducing your way into our family?
00:29:57How much, how much will it take you to disappear in your price?
00:30:06The difference between you and I, Mr. Crawford, is that I don't think that everything comes with a price tag.
00:30:14Excuse me.
00:30:15Stay calm.
00:30:27You can do this.
00:30:33Getting all dressed up for me, baby.
00:30:43What's the rush?
00:30:45We're all family here.
00:30:47Well, almost family.
00:30:49Don't touch me.
00:30:51You used to like it when I touched you.
00:30:53Remember how shy you were?
00:30:56Always saying no.
00:30:58Grant, off me, back here!
00:31:00Careful, though.
00:31:02One scream from you, and everyone at dinner is going to know what kind of girl you really are.
00:31:08Now, where were we?
00:31:11Ow!
00:31:12Everything all right, dear?
00:31:20You look flushed.
00:31:22So, as I was saying about the muscles...
00:31:26Stop it!
00:31:30Something wrong, Miss Reed?
00:31:32Stop it!
00:31:36Enough!
00:31:37No class?
00:31:39No manners?
00:31:40I don't know how you seduced my son, but someone like you could never deserve a place in this family!
00:31:47I...
00:31:48I...
00:31:48I'm the one who pursued her.
00:31:56Who convinced her to give me a chance.
00:32:01Adrian.
00:32:01If anyone's unworthy in this relationship, it's me.
00:32:05You want to know how we met?
00:32:07She crashed into my life, quite literally.
00:32:09Papers flying, coffee spilled.
00:32:11Unlike some people, she didn't care about my name or my money.
00:32:17She, uh, refused me several times.
00:32:20Called me too arrogant, too controlling.
00:32:22But, first woman who dared to stand out to me, and that's when I knew I had to have her.
00:32:27I...
00:32:28Sir, two things.
00:32:33Your sister has invited Miss Reed to tonight's family dinner, and your jet is ready.
00:32:37We can go now.
00:32:38Oh, what a touching story, Uncle.
00:32:43Cancel it, Lance.
00:32:44What's the merger?
00:32:47Yes, sir.
00:32:50Funny that last week, family dinners were the most pointless waste of time in existence.
00:32:58Something's more important in business.
00:33:04Oh, what a touching story, Uncle.
00:33:08Too bad it's either a complete lie, or she's been playing us both.
00:33:14What are you talking about?
00:33:16We've been dating for three years.
00:33:20I have pictures of us together.
00:33:25What?
00:33:27She probably planned this from the start.
00:33:29Dating me to get close to the family, then setting her sights higher.
00:33:34You manipulative little trick.
00:33:36Face it, Uncle.
00:33:37You're just another rung on her ladder to the top.
00:33:42Face it, Uncle.
00:33:44You're just another rung on her ladder to the top.
00:33:51That's for every lie you just told.
00:33:54Adrian, how dare you hit my son?
00:33:59Where do you think you're going?
00:34:00We are not finished here yet.
00:34:02Yes, we are.
00:34:08I'm sorry.
00:34:09I shouldn't have left you alone with that.
00:34:10Thank you for coming back, and for making up such a beautiful story about us.
00:34:20Your hands, what happened?
00:34:21As my fiancée, you have access to the family accounts.
00:34:41I expect you to use them.
00:34:43I didn't want to presume.
00:34:45You're a Crawford now.
00:34:56Dr. Anderson?
00:34:58Mr. Crawford, the embryos are ready, so we can proceed with the implantation tomorrow morning.
00:35:04I see.
00:35:08What is it?
00:35:09Is something wrong with the embryos?
00:35:11I've been thinking.
00:35:12Oh.
00:35:13Perhaps we should approach this matter in a more natural manner.
00:35:20Between a husband and wife.
00:35:25What are your thoughts?
00:35:25I think that we should go to bed.
00:35:32We have a really big day tomorrow, so, I mean, goodnight.
00:35:44You know, you look like a giant polar bear in that outfit.
00:35:49Focus on the procedure.
00:35:53Try to relax, Mrs. Crawford.
00:35:55There.
00:36:03See that Y spot?
00:36:06That's our baby.
00:36:13You know, I can walk.
00:36:15Doctor's orders?
00:36:16You seem more nervous than I do.
00:36:23I'm merely following medical procedure.
00:36:25Look at her.
00:36:36She's acting like a princess.
00:36:39She was probably a waitress last week.
00:36:44Now she's got Mr. Crawford wrapped around her finger.
00:36:48No, she's monopolised.
00:36:50Okay.
00:36:59All right.
00:36:59Who'd you talk to?
00:37:01Adrian!
00:37:06Hmm, not quite.
00:37:08Looking a bit unstable there, baby.
00:37:11Let go of me!
00:37:14Come on!
00:37:16You used to love being in my arms.
00:37:19No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
00:37:30You used to love being in my arms.
00:37:31Remember how we would spend hours at the cafe?
00:37:34You would lean into me while reading your favorite book?
00:37:38Did she?
00:37:41Adrian!
00:37:42I was just getting food, I swear.
00:37:48Get out!
00:37:53Stomach.
00:37:54Lila, what's wrong?
00:37:55My stomach, I think that there's something wrong.
00:37:57If anything, anything happens to my fiancé or child, I can't guarantee what I'll do.
00:38:05And you.
00:38:07What you want, you'll never have.
00:38:11Never.
00:38:12Child.
00:38:13Three years, she wouldn't let me touch her.
00:38:14In a few weeks, with my uncle, and she's carrying his child.
00:38:15You want the perfect family?
00:38:16Well.
00:38:17It's not gonna happen.
00:38:18It's not gonna happen.
00:38:19Thompson, clear my schedule.
00:38:20Everything over the next month goes to Jack.
00:38:22Sir, what happened?
00:38:23Do you need my help?
00:38:24You can't help on this one.
00:38:25Just do what I say.
00:38:26You and Ethan.
00:38:27You and Ethan.
00:38:28You and Ethan.
00:38:29You and Ethan.
00:38:30You and Ethan.
00:38:31It's not gonna happen.
00:38:33You and Ethan.
00:38:34You and Ethan.
00:38:35I'm not gonna have fun.
00:38:36What's wrong?
00:38:37Why is that?
00:38:38You and Ethan.
00:38:40Why is that?
00:38:41You and Ethan.
00:38:42You and Ethan.
00:38:43You've never really gone along.
00:38:44Have you?
00:38:45Why is that?
00:38:49Do you need my help?
00:38:50You can't help on this one.
00:38:51Just do what I say.
00:38:54You and Ethan, you've never really gotten along, have you?
00:39:01Why is that?
00:39:09You seem very concerned about him.
00:39:11I just...
00:39:12Just get some rest.
00:39:13It's been a rough day for you.
00:39:15Adrian, why did you choose to believe me just now?
00:39:19No reason.
00:39:21I just know you're not like that.
00:39:23Thanks.
00:39:25Get some rest.
00:39:26Do whatever makes you comfortable.
00:39:28Anything at all, I'll be around.
00:39:30Anything I want?
00:39:32Are you sure about that?
00:39:44What the hell?
00:40:00What are you doing?
00:40:03This is delicious.
00:40:04The baby wants chocolate.
00:40:07The baby wants chocolate.
00:40:09Yeah.
00:40:10And chips and ice cream.
00:40:13You wouldn't want to deny your child, would you?
00:40:17I've been researching optimal pregnancy nutrition.
00:40:20See?
00:40:21Week by week guidelines.
00:40:23Okay, okay, okay.
00:40:24How about a compromise?
00:40:26One treat per day.
00:40:28Half a treat.
00:40:29Three quarters.
00:40:31Congratulations.
00:40:55The fetus is developing perfectly.
00:40:58Really?
00:40:58Everything looks wonderful.
00:41:02Now that we're in the stable period, I would recommend you starting some pre-natal exercise.
00:41:08What kind of exercise?
00:41:12Now, hold her from behind in a maternal pose.
00:41:15Maybe we should skip this bar.
00:41:25Good train.
00:41:26Let's do it properly.
00:41:27Guide her arms up.
00:41:38This is a little intimate.
00:41:40And now, the supporting stretch.
00:41:50Oh, thank you.
00:41:54Beautiful form, Mr. Crawford and Mrs. Crawford.
00:41:59Maybe we should continue this at home.
00:42:01Yeah.
00:42:02Please.
00:42:02Please.
00:42:02Okay.
00:42:03A charity gala isn't a test.
00:42:24Your father specifically invited me to attend.
00:42:27You look perfect.
00:42:50Just be yourself.
00:42:51Then, this, this is not me.
00:43:01You look exactly the same.
00:43:30And you must be the fiancée.
00:43:42I'm so pleased Adrian has found someone after all these years.
00:43:46That's really kind, but I'm sorry.
00:43:49Who are you?
00:43:49I'm just someone who cares about Adrian's happiness more than anyone else.
00:44:03Oh, my God.
00:44:05You two are finally back together.
00:44:08Everyone, look who's here.
00:44:10The golden couple.
00:44:11I heard Adrian Crawford was engaged.
00:44:16I knew it was you, Vivian.
00:44:17When is the wedding?
00:44:22Actually, I'd like to introduce you all to my fiancée, Lala Reed.
00:44:27We're expecting our first child, and of course, you're all welcome to the wedding.
00:44:38She's pregnant?
00:44:40Oh, I'm so sorry.
00:44:42I just assumed congratulations for you both.
00:44:49Adrian Crawford in a complete unknown.
00:44:52How did you manage that?
00:44:53Adrian Crawford over Vivian?
00:44:55Is he crazy?
00:44:57Oh, Benji, have you been.
00:45:00Great.
00:45:01Let's go, pal.
00:45:08They can be so judgmental, can't they?
00:45:11Don't take it too personally, dear.
00:45:19Gentlemen!
00:45:20What are you all talking about?
00:45:21They do look like the perfect couple.
00:45:42Drinking?
00:45:43I thought you were pregnant.
00:45:45None of your business.
00:45:46You know how Adrian is.
00:45:52Always has to win.
00:45:54Especially against me.
00:45:56He hates when I take things from him.
00:45:58What are you talking about?
00:46:07Perfect couple, right?
00:46:10Until...
00:46:10Vivian fell madly in love with me, leaving dear Uncle heartbroken.
00:46:20Since then, whatever I want, he has to take.
00:46:25Whatever I have, he has to win.
00:46:28Like you.
00:46:29What you want, you never have.
00:46:34Never.
00:46:36You and Ethan, you've never really gone along, have you?
00:46:41You don't get it.
00:46:43Stop being naive.
00:46:45You're just his tool for revenge.
00:46:47I'm just his tool for revenge.
00:46:57What do you think you're doing?
00:47:13You are pregnant.
00:47:14Why are you drinking?
00:47:16Oh, now you care.
00:47:20It's soda.
00:47:21I know what I'm doing.
00:47:36What happened back there?
00:47:39Talk to me.
00:47:39Lila, I am worried.
00:47:44So you talk to Ethan, but not me.
00:47:47Well, you do care so much about your nephew, don't you?
00:48:05Lila, open the door.
00:48:10Please.
00:48:28We walked that season by clothes.
00:48:35I don't get it.
00:48:36The eggs are still warm
00:48:43I apologize about last night
00:48:47I was
00:48:47I was just worried about you
00:48:49Worried about me
00:48:51Or worried about the baby
00:48:53What do you mean?
00:48:58Is this why you're being so nice to me?
00:49:02Making me breakfast
00:49:03Being all protective
00:49:04It's just for the baby
00:49:06Natalie
00:49:09You've been so strange since yesterday
00:49:12Why?
00:49:14Was Vivian your girlfriend?
00:49:21Yes
00:49:21And then she got with Ethan
00:49:30Yes
00:49:33Okay
00:49:35So I'm just
00:49:36Vivian and I were
00:49:37Sir, the Singapore Marjorie is falling apart
00:49:45We need you immediately
00:49:46I'm in the middle of summer
00:49:48The board is threatening to pull out
00:49:51I'll be there
00:49:53We need to finish this conversation as soon as I get back
00:50:01Of course
00:50:02Business first
00:50:03Lila
00:50:09Just go
00:50:10Sir, there have been complications
00:50:24Explain
00:50:25During your absence
00:50:27Mr. Ethan has been meeting with board members
00:50:30Suggesting your sudden marriage plans
00:50:32Indicate obstacle decision making
00:50:35Several executors are questioning if someone so personally distracted
00:50:40Should
00:50:42And hurt the company
00:50:43Mr. Crawford, we've been discussing my personal life
00:51:03Your sudden access cast
00:51:05Let me be very clear
00:51:13This company took a 40% profit loss before I took over
00:51:18Within three years, I tripled our market share
00:51:21Every major merger, every successful acquisition, every stock surge
00:51:25My execution, my strategies
00:51:29So yes, I am getting married
00:51:32And yes, I took some time off
00:51:34And no, not a single person in this room has the right to question my commitment or my capability
00:51:42Because without me, there wouldn't be a company left to inherit
00:51:48Now
00:51:52Shall we discuss the merger?
00:52:18Adrian, what the hell were you thinking at the board meeting yesterday?
00:52:40I was doing my job
00:52:41Your job is to follow the family's strategy
00:52:45Ever since she came into your life, you've been undermining everything we've built
00:52:51You leave Lila out of this
00:52:54You know, I don't have to stand here and listen to this
00:52:57Yeah, run along
00:52:59Adults are talking business now
00:53:01We just need to bore him for a moment, dear
00:53:04Business matters
00:53:05You wouldn't understand
00:53:06That girl is a poison to the Crawford name
00:53:18She's nothing but a broodmare
00:53:25After she delivers, pay her off and be done with it
00:53:30Adrian needs someone who understands this world
00:53:33Someone like me
00:53:35Vivian is joining Crawford Industries tomorrow
00:53:40Non-negotiable
00:53:42She will follow you every day, just like before
00:53:45And your little pet project can't stay home and gestate
00:53:50That's all she's good for
00:53:51Get out!
00:53:55Both of you!
00:53:56How dare you!
00:53:57If you dare mention my wife's name again
00:53:59I will burn Crawford Industries to the ground before either of you get to touch it
00:54:04Adrian, be reasonable
00:54:06She is worth a thousand to you
00:54:08Tomorrow, 9am, Vivian starts
00:54:13No discussion
00:54:14Is that all?
00:54:18Yes, for now
00:54:19But don't disappoint me again
00:54:21The nadaiah
00:54:22There's no immediate
00:54:24You are a looking for
00:54:26Well, it's necessary
00:54:26Closed I'm idea
00:54:31Well, may your wife
00:54:40There's no small
00:54:42Nothing
00:54:42There's no small
00:54:44Stop it! Stop checking! This is ridiculous! I was independent before! I don't need a
00:55:07man to make me breakfast in bed and to hold me whilst I sleep. No! I'm not gonna be that girl!
00:55:19I can make my own meals. I don't need his perfectly prepared little plates or his nutritional
00:55:26spreadsheets. A broodmare. Way to get back at Ethan.
00:55:37Lalo! I'm fine! You're not fine! Hospital! Now!
00:55:45I'm fine!
00:56:00Thanks. I know we've had our differences but I really appreciated you today.
00:56:07You know, you used to look at me like that. All sweet. Sincere.
00:56:15Don't.
00:56:17Why not? Is there really no chance for us?
00:56:20Ethan.
00:56:21Lalo. He's just using you. You're his revenge against me. A tool. And you deserve better than
00:56:30that.
00:56:32Adrian! Stop! What are you doing?
00:56:36I'm protecting you. From what? He's helping. He brought me here. My hand was bleeding.
00:56:41So now you're defending him. No, I'm defending the truth. Sometimes I guess people surprise you.
00:56:48I see. Adrian. I'll call the doctor to come.
00:56:58I want a full blood panel. Fetal monitoring. Bring the OBGYN down immediately.
00:57:03Sir, it's just a minor cough. I want a full prenatal checkup.
00:57:07I've already spoken to Dr. Anderson. He's going to be down here in 10 minutes.
00:57:10Always so controlled. Aren't you, Uncle? Some of us actually know how to make Lila happy.
00:57:20Remember our beach dates? How you said I was the most fun you ever had?
00:57:30Thompson. Bring in the catering. The Michelin star one. Lila says she's got a hankering for Australian Wagyu beef.
00:57:38Oh, well done. No sauce.
00:57:41I don't think that I did say...
00:57:43How about when we watched your favorite movie?
00:57:46Pride and Prejudice. BBC adaptation, 1995. She likes to watch it when she's still stressed.
00:57:52Which is why I upgraded our home theater system. To have all the original films from the BBC archive.
00:57:59You did what? Wow!
00:58:03Using money to get to her heart. Huh, Uncle?
00:58:11The Alzheimer's Wing is fully renovated. Named after Lila's grandmother. As she mentioned.
00:58:17Oh, it's a fully funded. Anonymous donor.
00:58:22He may be able to offer you money, but you're gonna miss this.
00:58:30Is this normal rich people behavior?
00:58:32I've already ordered the prenatal vitamins. They should arrive shortly. They're custom formulated to her blood and genetic profile.
00:58:42Wow. You remembered all that about me.
00:58:44I remember everything about you.
00:58:46Maybe you should come back when there's less testosterone in the air.
00:58:50Guys, she's tired. We should leave. Let her rest.
00:59:00Is this just another competition, Ethan? Or does he actually care?
00:59:28There's a lot of people.
00:59:30You're not alone.
00:59:31You're not alone.
00:59:32You're not alone.
00:59:33You're not alone.
00:59:34You're not alone.
00:59:36You're not alone.
00:59:37Mm, mm, mm, mm, mm, mm, mm, mm.
00:59:41Yes, Father?
00:59:42Vivian's been hospitalized. Overwork, they say. From cleaning up your company's mess.
00:59:47Overwork, they say, from cleaning up your company's mess.
00:59:52I have meetings.
00:59:53Cancel them!
00:59:54Go to visit her right now!
00:59:57Either you show proper respect to the woman I chose for you,
01:00:01or else I will have to call an emergency board meeting!
01:00:17You came.
01:00:24Let's skip the performance, Vivian.
01:00:29Still so cold.
01:00:31Don't you remember when you used to bring me soup when I was unwell?
01:00:35That was a long time ago.
01:00:38We were really great together, Adrian.
01:00:40We could be together again.
01:00:42I don't know what game you're playing at, but it won't work.
01:00:45What we had, I never took it as seriously as you pretended to.
01:00:51But Lila, she's different.
01:00:53She's real.
01:00:55A pregnant gold digger is real?
01:00:58Please.
01:01:05I guess some things never change.
01:01:11Watch your words.
01:01:13Stay away from my wife.
01:01:25My little girl.
01:01:26Daddy.
01:01:27Hello.
01:01:30Your hand.
01:01:31It's nothing.
01:01:32I need to tell you something.
01:01:35I'm gonna be a mother.
01:01:38Is it that Ethan boys?
01:01:40No.
01:01:41No.
01:01:42Then who?
01:01:44It doesn't matter.
01:01:45But what does matter is that this is my baby.
01:01:48And I'm gonna love them so much.
01:01:51With all the love that you gave me.
01:01:53You gave me.
01:01:56Baby.
01:01:58I'm so sorry.
01:01:59I'm...
01:02:00Sorry I couldn't...
01:02:01Couldn't give you better.
01:02:04Daddy.
01:02:05If only I were healthy.
01:02:06If I could work.
01:02:07Daddy, don't.
01:02:10The hospital bills.
01:02:11What are you getting money for?
01:02:14Don't tell me you sold yourself to some men.
01:02:16No.
01:02:17No.
01:02:18It's not like that.
01:02:19Did someone take advantage of you?
01:02:21My little girl.
01:02:22Pregnant.
01:02:23All alone.
01:02:24She's not alone.
01:02:29Hi Mr. Reid.
01:02:30I'm Adrian Crawford.
01:02:35I'm the father of her child.
01:02:37Adrian.
01:02:39I'm not just the father.
01:02:40I'm the man who's gonna spend the rest of his life making sure your daughter and our child get everything they deserve.
01:02:46Pretty words from a rich man.
01:02:49Not words.
01:02:50Facts.
01:02:51I've already arranged a transfer to a private medical facility.
01:02:53Full treatment plan.
01:02:54Best specialists.
01:02:56Adrian.
01:02:59And I promise you this.
01:03:01Every morning, she's gonna wake up knowing that she is cherished.
01:03:04Every decision I make, every step I take will be to ensure her happiness.
01:03:09You really mean that, don't you?
01:03:11Yes sir, I do.
01:03:14Well...
01:03:17Maybe...
01:03:18I can stop worrying now.
01:03:29For...
01:03:30What you said in there.
01:03:31I know you were just trying to make my father feel better.
01:03:33No, no, no, no.
01:03:35I wasn't just doing anything.
01:03:37Every word I said in there is true.
01:03:40Adrian.
01:03:46Laila, I need to tell you something.
01:03:49I've been falling for you ever since you crashed into my office with that ridiculous donor questionnaire.
01:03:54Yes, we had a contract, but...
01:03:57I realized...
01:03:59You've become everything to me.
01:04:02You're not my surrogate.
01:04:05You're not my convenient fiancee.
01:04:09You're my partner.
01:04:12If you have me.
01:04:13You're my partner.
01:04:16But what about Ethan and Vivian?
01:04:19What about them?
01:04:23Aren't you trying to just get revenge on Ethan and...
01:04:26Revenge?
01:04:27I never loved Vivian.
01:04:29And Ethan, he's not worth a second thought.
01:04:31Really?
01:04:33And who was the guy I saw competing with Ethan?
01:04:39That was...
01:04:45I was jealous, okay?
01:04:47I thought of you with him.
01:04:49Wow.
01:04:51The great Mr. Crawford.
01:04:53Jealous.
01:04:54Don't mention that.
01:04:55I have a reputation to maintain.
01:04:57Hmm.
01:05:11I'm not letting you go.
01:05:13Not ever.
01:05:14Surrogacy?
01:05:16Contract of marriage?
01:05:18Oh, this is too perfect.
01:05:22Surrogacy?
01:05:24Contract of marriage?
01:05:26Oh, this is too perfect.
01:05:44Uh...
01:06:02Whiskey.
01:06:03Neat.
01:06:06What's so urgent?
01:06:08I know something about your little ex-girlfriend that might interest you.
01:06:12Is this about her and my uncle?
01:06:13It's about how she really got pregnant.
01:06:17Your perfect uncle?
01:06:19He hired her.
01:06:21She's just a surrogate.
01:06:23Their whole engagement is a lie.
01:06:26A contract.
01:06:30The board would love to hear about this.
01:06:34Next week's family meeting.
01:06:36We'll reveal everything.
01:06:38Until then, let's gather more evidence.
01:06:40Yes.
01:06:43And once he's ruined...
01:06:45I'll comfort him.
01:06:46Help him rebuild.
01:06:48He'll remember who he truly belongs with.
01:06:55And Lila?
01:06:57Well, once the truth's out, she'll be worthless to him.
01:06:59You can have your little toy back.
01:07:04Cheers.
01:07:05Ethan's in meetings all afternoon.
01:07:06That's okay. I don't mind waiting.
01:07:08These documents require his immediate attention.
01:07:10Would you mind getting me some tea, dear?
01:07:11No.
01:07:12No.
01:07:13No.
01:07:14No.
01:07:15No.
01:07:16No, no.
01:07:17No.
01:07:18No.
01:07:19No, no.
01:07:20No.
01:07:22No.
01:07:23No.
01:07:24No.
01:07:25No.
01:07:26No.
01:07:27No.
01:07:28No.
01:07:30No.
01:07:31No.
01:07:32No.
01:07:33No.
01:07:34No.
01:07:35Give me some tea, dear.
01:07:42Sorry to see agreements.
01:07:44I've got no contracts.
01:07:47Come on.
01:07:49The train's always so organized.
01:07:52Where is everything?
01:08:01It's just a stupid cat.
01:08:05Are you okay?
01:08:15You're a beast! Attach me!
01:08:19I need your bathroom. Now!
01:08:29Atrian.
01:08:31I've been waiting for you.
01:08:35You know, if you need an heir, we could make one.
01:08:47Right here. Right now.
01:08:51Lil doesn't have to know.
01:08:53She's already asleep.
01:08:55It could just be our little secret.
01:09:01Here.
01:09:03In the living room.
01:09:06Wherever you want.
01:09:08Someone might see us.
01:09:10Are you scared?
01:09:11I'm scared.
01:09:16I know somewhere more.
01:09:18Private.
01:09:26Where are we going?
01:09:27Can't risk being interrupted, can we?
01:09:31Ladies first.
01:09:36Enjoy the fresh air.
01:09:39Adrienne! Adrienne!
01:09:41You can't do this to me!
01:09:42I'm a Crawford executor!
01:09:44Stop filming me!
01:09:45This is harassment!
01:09:46I will sue you!
01:09:47I will sue you so hard!
01:09:49Adrian!
01:09:50Adrian!
01:09:51Adrian!
01:09:52Adrian!
01:09:53Adrian!
01:09:54Let me in!
01:09:55Everyone, this crisis could have destroyed us, but thanks to your tireless efforts, Crawford is stronger than ever. To the best team in the business!
01:10:20Yeah!
01:10:25Though, speaking of tonight's celebration, there's something you all should be prepared for.
01:10:32For what?
01:10:35My uncle is bringing his fiancee tonight.
01:10:39The thing is, her and I were together until very recently.
01:10:44My uncle?
01:10:46I know, I know, I know.
01:10:48But please, when they arrive, act normal.
01:10:52I couldn't bear any drama.
01:10:54She left you for your uncle.
01:10:58These things happen.
01:11:01Everyone!
01:11:03I'd like to introduce you to my fiancee, Lila Reed.
01:11:07Hello everybody, it's lovely to meet you all.
01:11:09I need to check some numbers.
01:11:14Did I do something wrong?
01:11:18How are you feeling?
01:11:19Is the morning sickness over yet?
01:11:20I'm fine.
01:11:21You know, I've been worried.
01:11:22All this stress can't be good for the baby.
01:11:24Which hospital are you using?
01:11:25I could drive you next time.
01:11:26That's not necessary.
01:11:27Come on.
01:11:28We used to tell each other everything.
01:11:30Just want to make sure you're getting the proper care.
01:11:31If I know her hospital, then I can get her surrogate history.
01:11:32How thoughtful.
01:11:33But Adrian handles all my appointments personally.
01:11:37The real hero of the hour!
01:11:38Whoa!
01:11:39Whoa!
01:11:40Beautiful.
01:11:41Isn't she good?
01:11:42I can't do anything.
01:11:43I could drive you next time.
01:11:44I could drive you next time.
01:11:45That's not necessary.
01:11:46Come on.
01:11:47We used to tell each other everything.
01:11:48Just want to make sure you're getting the proper care.
01:11:50If I know her hospital, then I can get her surrogate history.
01:11:54How thoughtful.
01:11:55But Adrian handles all my appointments personally.
01:11:59The real hero of the hour!
01:12:01Whoa!
01:12:02Whoa!
01:12:07Beautiful, isn't she?
01:12:09The type of woman who belongs in Adrian's world.
01:12:12Excuse me.
01:12:15You know how my uncle thinks.
01:12:18Like a chess master.
01:12:20Every piece has its use.
01:12:22Some for business.
01:12:25Others for...
01:12:27You don't know him.
01:12:29Oh, but I do.
01:12:31Adrian Crawford cares exactly about one person.
01:12:35Adrian Crawford.
01:12:36He sees people as investments.
01:12:38Vivian?
01:12:39Perfect for managing the company.
01:12:42You?
01:12:43Well, I think we both know what your role is.
01:12:47He's wrong.
01:12:51He's wrong.
01:12:52He has to be wrong.
01:13:12Everyone in this world has their place.
01:13:14Their purpose.
01:13:15Maybe it's time I found mine again.
01:13:19Maybe when's the last time you ate something?
01:13:20I don't know.
01:13:21Breakfast.
01:13:22Yesterday's breakfast.
01:13:23Yesterday's breakfast.
01:13:24That's enough for today.
01:13:25I don't know.
01:13:26I don't know.
01:13:27I don't know.
01:13:28Okay.
01:13:29Okay.
01:13:38I don't know when I got a message.
01:13:42But...
01:13:43We can take some things.
01:13:44We can take some things.
01:13:45governments.
01:13:46We have to.
01:13:47We don't know when we get back after them.
01:13:49We don't know.
01:13:51That's enough for today.
01:13:52that's enough for today
01:13:59the prenatal instructor said this exercise should help
01:14:02okay like this?
01:14:04uh... almost
01:14:11I think I need a little more instruction
01:14:41everything looks perfect the baby's developments right on track
01:14:47really?
01:14:49really
01:14:50now that you're in the stable period
01:14:53intimate relations is perfectly safe as long as you're gentle
01:14:58just listen to your bodies and
01:15:00yes
01:15:00ah, thank you, doctor
01:15:07Dr. Anderson
01:15:30let's talk about
01:15:32Adrian Crawford's arrangement
01:15:34was it a surrogacy contract?
01:15:39Mr. Harrington
01:15:41Dr. Patient Confidentiality
01:15:44I hear
01:15:46that the new hospital complex
01:15:49is looking for department heads
01:15:51wouldn't it be a shame
01:15:53if
01:15:54your name was
01:15:56mysteriously removed from the list
01:16:02now
01:16:03about those hospital records
01:16:09oh my god
01:16:15Surrogacy
01:16:18Surrogacy
01:16:24Oh, my God.
01:16:32Surrogacy. Surrogacy. Five generations of Crawford dignity destroyed by tabloid gossip.
01:16:42I knew that girl was hiding something.
01:16:47Did you? Did you really pay some nobody to carry your heir?
01:16:52Tell me it isn't true.
01:17:02You. It's your doing.
01:17:06I...
01:17:07Adrian.
01:17:10I need to discuss something with you. Privately.
01:17:13Adrian. I can make all of this disappear. All you have to do is remember who you really belong with.
01:17:25Who I belong with.
01:17:26We were good together. We can't be again. Give me the position I deserve. As Mrs. Crawford by your side.
01:17:35I do need your help. Please, never show up again.
01:17:40Never show up again.
01:17:58I won't let them hurt you.
01:17:59It's not me I'm worried about. If they expose the truth about our arrangement, you could lose everything.
01:18:09Nothing's more important than you and our child.
01:18:11You and our child.
01:18:12You and our child.
01:18:18This emergency family meeting will come to order.
01:18:36come to order. I have
01:18:38proof. Miss
01:18:39Reed is not Adrienne's
01:18:42loving bride-to-be.
01:18:44She's just a surrogate
01:18:46paid to carry the
01:18:48Crawford heir.
01:18:52I have proof
01:18:54too. Medical records
01:18:56from Crawford.
01:19:05Crawford.
01:19:06Crawford's medical center
01:19:23showing that Miss Reed
01:19:25underwent
01:19:29for two
01:19:48treat.
01:19:49Treat.
01:19:52Treat.
01:19:52For which she was
01:20:00generously compensated.
01:20:07Paid surrogacy.
01:20:09How come?
01:20:09All right, fine. You want the truth?
01:20:23Yes, it started with a surrogacy.
01:20:25But Lilo, she's the woman I chose
01:20:29to be the mother of my child.
01:20:31And I won't let anyone here
01:20:33slander her.
01:20:35You want this arrangement?
01:20:36Fine.
01:20:38But then,
01:20:39it costs you
01:20:41everything.
01:20:42Everything.
01:20:42resign from the company.
01:20:52Give up your inheritance.
01:20:55The child can see in the family.
01:20:57Of course.
01:20:58But the mother, well,
01:20:59her services won't be required
01:21:01after delivery.
01:21:02Yes,
01:21:10I did the IVF treatment.
01:21:13But I never,
01:21:14never
01:21:15saw this baby
01:21:16as a business transaction.
01:21:17You know what?
01:21:22You can say whatever
01:21:23you want about me.
01:21:25But don't you dare
01:21:26question my love
01:21:28for this child.
01:21:29Don't you dare.
01:21:32Enough!
01:21:47I'm willing to give up everything.
01:22:12The company,
01:22:13the inheritance,
01:22:15all of it.
01:22:17But I won't
01:22:20give up her.
01:22:22She's my wife.
01:22:24The only one
01:22:24that I will ever want.
01:22:27We're getting married.
01:22:29Properly.
01:22:31Publicly.
01:22:33Fine.
01:22:35You want to throw away
01:22:36everything.
01:22:40For this.
01:22:41For this.
01:22:46This woman.
01:22:47Then,
01:22:49you will get nothing
01:22:50from this family.
01:22:52Nothing!
01:22:53Sign it.
01:22:54Renounce your inheritance.
01:22:56All of it.
01:23:00No, no, no, no, no,
01:23:01Adrian, stop.
01:23:03Not worth losing
01:23:04everything for.
01:23:05You're worth
01:23:06everything.
01:23:06The company.
01:23:10The assets.
01:23:11I built them once.
01:23:13I can build them again.
01:23:15But you.
01:23:17You and our child.
01:23:19They're our real future.
01:23:24Still time to
01:23:25think it over, son.

01:26:16My wife is so popular now.
01:26:17I know.
01:26:18You're a father.
01:26:28Son, the board wants you back.
01:26:31Take your position,
01:26:33your inheritance.
01:26:34I'll have to ask my wife.
01:26:37What do you think,
01:26:38Mrs. Crawford?
01:26:39First order of business.
01:26:46Starting without me.
01:26:48Perfect timing.
01:26:49I'm announcing your termination.
01:26:51You can't fire me.
01:26:54I'm a shareholder and a senior executive.
01:26:57The company crisis last month wasn't an accident.
01:27:00You and Ethan deliberately sabotaged our deal.
01:27:03You can't prove any great email, every call, every secret meeting without me.
01:27:09I'll document it.
01:27:12Lawsuit's already been filed.
01:27:14You and Ethan will be hearing from our lawyers.
01:27:17Oh.
01:27:19Oh.
01:27:26Oh, my God.
01:27:28Yeah.
01:27:33Adrian.
01:27:35I, uh, I think my water just broke.
01:27:38Yeah.
01:27:39Come home.
01:27:43Mr. Crawford, they vote for new director.
01:27:50For her, he'd drop everything.
01:27:55Including a multi-billion dollar company.
01:27:57Before we vote, there is something you should know.
01:28:10Adrian and Lila were legally married two months ago.
01:28:14And they have my full blessing.
01:28:31Both my girls still awake?
01:28:33I'm just finishing.
