00:00:00Trust, until I caught my husband cheating on me.

00:00:05Baby, you're so good, baby.

00:00:10Jim, straight up.

00:00:22Here's your drink, miss.

00:00:30This deal is crucial to the grand family.

00:00:43You screw it up and you're fired.

00:00:47Please, help.

00:00:50Okay.

00:00:56Sorry about my girlfriend, man.

00:00:57She can't handle her liquor.

00:00:59Let's get you to bed, babe.

00:01:03You have three seconds to tell me your name.

00:01:06One, uh, two.

00:01:11Hey, stop right there!

00:01:16Okay.

00:01:19I need a hospital.

00:01:19You sure you want to do this?

00:01:45I know.

00:01:46I know.

00:01:50Just kiss me.

00:02:04I know.

00:02:06Shit.

00:02:17You're awake.

00:02:18Well.

00:02:23Um, uh, yeah.

00:02:25It's like, um, I gotta, I gotta go.

00:02:29Wait, you just, you're just gonna leave?

00:02:34Um.

00:02:36Right.

00:02:41Look, I'm new to this, but that should be enough, right?

00:02:46Last night was a mistake.

00:02:48Let's just pretend it never happened.

00:02:54Hey, Dad, it's me.

00:02:56Remember the collaboration between our family and my husband?

00:02:59Cancel it and get me a lawyer.

00:03:02I'm divorcing the bastard.

00:03:03Well, well, well.

00:03:12Someone had a rather exciting night, right?

00:03:15Cut the bullshit.

00:03:16Sign these, and you can screw your little girlfriend guilt-free.

00:03:22Wait.

00:03:32Hey, Mom.

00:03:33Hi.

00:03:33How are you?

00:03:38Well, well.

00:03:40Looks like my workaholic son has found himself a girlfriend.

00:03:42The upper suite has been cleaned and is ready as requested.

00:03:49Thank you so much, Robert.

00:03:50Why are you cleaning the upper suite?

00:03:52It's been empty for years.

00:03:53It's Emily's suite.

00:03:55Your stepsister.

00:03:57Divorce?

00:03:58Fine.

00:03:59Half of the company?

00:04:01You're insane, Robert.

00:04:03I built everything with you.

00:04:06I deserve every penny of my half.

00:04:08Um, is this how you built it?

00:04:11She cut ties after her father married me.

00:04:14But word is that she's finally coming home.

00:04:18What?

00:04:19She couldn't hack it in the real world?

00:04:21Come on.

00:04:21Don't say that.

00:04:23Look at her photo.

00:04:24She's so stunning.

00:04:26I'm not interested in some spoiled stepsister.

00:04:30Okay.

00:04:34Hey.

00:04:36Hypothetically,

00:04:37if a woman sleeps with you and then tries to pay you after,

00:04:41what does that mean?

00:04:42Oh, honey.

00:04:44She thinks you're some kind of escort.

00:04:49Oh.

00:04:51She's really got you hooked.

00:04:52Okay.

00:04:55It was you.

00:05:17You drugged my drink last night?

00:05:19Any judge who sees these pictures will side with me.

00:05:22I just helped Bray land a $500 million deal with the Grants.

00:05:27Alice helps my business grow.

00:05:32What can you offer?

00:05:34This deal was my work.

00:05:36If it wasn't for me,

00:05:37you wouldn't have even gotten near the Grants.

00:05:40Bullshit.

00:05:40What do you do?

00:05:41Be their maid?

00:05:46What if I told you I am a Grant,

00:05:48and I just didn't tell you

00:05:49because I thought you'd be too insecure?

00:05:51How else do you think the Blard Group grew so fast?

00:05:54Oh, come on.

00:05:55The Grants are L.A. royalty.

00:05:57You're not fit to shine their sheets.

00:06:01Brayden,

00:06:01throw this crazy woman out.

00:06:03Yes, Mother.

00:06:04Here.

00:06:05$500,000.

00:06:07Should last you for a lifetime.

00:06:11Ungrateful.

00:06:11Thor!

00:06:12Keep your money.

00:06:13Consider it tuition for learning who you really are.

00:06:15And you two.

00:06:17Congratulations.

00:06:19May you two grow old together

00:06:20and never have kids.

00:06:22Wait.

00:06:24What?

00:06:26That outfit.

00:06:27Bray bought it for you, didn't he?

00:06:33Mm-hmm.

00:06:38Take your trash and get it!

00:06:40Get it!

00:06:45Let's go ahead.

00:06:48Your father sent us to bring you home.

00:06:50We'll pay for your disloyalty and content.

00:07:04Emily!

00:07:05You're finally home!

00:07:07I thought you weren't coming back.

00:07:17Is that all you have to say to your daughter

00:07:18after all these years?

00:07:21I told you that man was worthless.

00:07:24You should have listened.

00:07:25She needs her father's support about criticism.

00:07:28Spare me your fake sympathy.

00:07:29Emily, enough.

00:07:30Sophie has only cared about you.

00:07:34Why are you being so hostile?

00:07:35If it wasn't for her,

00:07:36my mother would still be alive.

00:07:37Your mother's death

00:07:37has nothing to do with Sophie.

00:07:39It's all right.

00:07:41Carl, don't be so hard on her.

00:07:46David's back.

00:07:47Well, now that you're back,

00:07:49this is a good time

00:07:50to meet your stepper,

00:07:51but you two need to get along.

00:08:00David!

00:08:04Apologies, Mr. Grant.

00:08:05A young master had an urgent meeting.

00:08:07It was imperative he'd attend.

00:08:09However, he did send this grant

00:08:11a gift to express his regrets.

00:08:21Nice diamonds.

00:08:24Looks like your son helped himself

00:08:25to become...

00:08:26Emily,

00:08:27David has contributed greatly

00:08:29to this company.

00:08:30He has earned everything.

00:08:31Perfect timing.

00:08:32I'm back now.

00:08:34You should let me

00:08:34take over the company.

00:08:35I know what you're thinking.

00:08:36Just leave your stepbrother alone

00:08:38and stay home.

00:08:46I thought you were meeting

00:08:47with your mysterious

00:08:47stepsister today.

00:08:49She doesn't have

00:08:50attention without me.

00:08:52Hey, any news about that girl?

00:08:53Actually, Barnes,

00:08:54you should probably stop asking.

00:08:55Turns out she's married.

00:08:57Married.

00:09:01Married.

00:09:13Arranging to warn your son?

00:09:14Emily.

00:09:15No, I...

00:09:16You might fool my father,

00:09:18but not me.

00:09:20My parents built

00:09:20this company together

00:09:21and I won't let it

00:09:22fall into your hands.

00:09:31Yeah, I don't know.

00:09:42Hey, hey, stop.

00:09:44Um, if you're looking for secondhand clothes for your kid's next PTA meeting, that's next door.

00:09:50I've been going too long.

00:09:52You don't know who I am?

00:09:55They don't recognize me.

00:09:57I'm a complete hellbilly.

00:09:58Oh, my God. Look at what she's wearing.

00:10:03This is Grant Group.

00:10:05The CEO is needing VIPs today, so get out before we make you.

00:10:10So now I'm a visitor?

00:10:12Look, the boss.

00:10:26It's him.

00:10:28You really should come home.

00:10:37This was expensive.

00:10:39So did you ever find that girl?

00:10:42It's okay.

00:10:43You're gonna find the one.

00:10:45Mom, can you stop?

00:10:46I'm not a child.

00:10:48Who says I even like her anyway?

00:10:49Right.

00:10:50Okay, so your step-sister's coming here now, and we are gonna go greet her together.

00:10:56No excuses.

00:10:57Come on.

00:11:03Okay.

00:11:09Why are they together?

00:11:11Are they...

00:11:12Okay, when you meet, Emily, watch your time.

00:11:18What are you doing here?

00:11:19How long have you been with her?

00:11:24How long have you been with her?

00:11:26What?

00:11:27Do you know who she is?

00:11:29How dare you do it here?

00:11:31You...

00:11:31You bastard.

00:11:34I can't believe I slept with the same escort as her.

00:11:38Disgusting.

00:11:39You know, a woman sleeping with a man who is not her husband shouldn't throw stones.

00:11:45You've been stalking me?

00:11:47Information is easy to come by these days.

00:11:49You have no idea what I've been through.

00:11:51You have no right to judge.

00:11:52Oh, and...

00:11:53So you know everything about me?

00:11:56Oh, of course you do.

00:11:57You think that I'm an escort.

00:11:59I...

00:11:59Aren't you?

00:12:03Of course I am.

00:12:05You know...

00:12:06You seem to have forgotten a few things about that night.

00:12:10Well, maybe...

00:12:11Maybe I can help you remember.

00:12:16When you meet Emily, watch your tone.

00:12:18Understand?

00:12:20David?

00:12:23You can't hide.

00:12:24You can't hide.

00:12:29David, how hard is it to meet your step-sister?

00:12:40I didn't see anything.

00:12:48Why does she look familiar?

00:12:53What are you two doing?

00:12:55I'm sorry, Miss Grant.

00:12:56I...

00:12:59You jerk!

00:13:03I don't care what you do.

00:13:05Just stay away from the Grant family.

00:13:06If you do anything that ruins their reputation,

00:13:08I'll break your legs.

00:13:10She knows so much about her family.

00:13:13Why?

00:13:16Fuck.

00:13:17Why is my heart racing?

00:13:18Long time no see, stranger.

00:13:28Long time no see, stranger.

00:13:30Sorry, do I know you?

00:13:32You might remember this.

00:13:46Sam!

00:13:48I can't believe you kept the ring.

00:13:52So, um, why are you at Grant?

00:13:54Hmm.

00:13:55My family.

00:13:56They're doing business with yours,

00:13:58and I heard you were going to be here,

00:13:59so I just asked my dad if I could handle it.

00:14:01So, I just wanted to see her.

00:14:02I've waited for so long.

00:14:03So, you heard about my divorce?

00:14:08Boss, isn't that the girl you like?

00:14:10Oh, that's Sam Smith.

00:14:13From the Smith crew.

00:14:15We're working with.

00:14:16That's him?

00:14:17Yeah.

00:14:18The playboy himself.

00:14:20He was actually engaged to your stepsister

00:14:21before she married somebody else.

00:14:29I've heard, you know.

00:14:31Not a woman.

00:14:32Well, well, well.

00:14:34Look who it is.

00:14:36Emily.

00:14:37Divorce really brought out your inner slut.

00:14:38You must be Emily's new boy toy.

00:14:43Has your pretty girl told you about her history yet?

00:14:46Wow.

00:14:46Is that really how you talk to somebody?

00:14:48When you just approach someone like that?

00:14:50Oh, easy, buddy.

00:14:51I'm just trying to show you the trash she really is.

00:14:55Three days ago, she got caught with an escort

00:14:57and thrown out penniless.

00:15:00Oh, nice watch, by the way.

00:15:02Better watch her wallet.

00:15:04Is that your ex?

00:15:06Someone's catching on, huh?

00:15:07Yes, sir?

00:15:11How can I help you, sir?

00:15:12Yes, uh, this woman is trying to hit on this gentleman.

00:15:17As a VIP ex, peck you to kick her out.

00:15:19Unless, of course, you want everyone in L.A.

00:15:22to know you're running a brothel here.

00:15:25Well, should we help?

00:15:28The Smith there can handle himself.

00:15:30The other two are in trouble.

00:15:32Now.

00:15:33Security, come get her out.

00:15:35Bye, sir.

00:15:37I dare you to try that, seriously.

00:15:39Go ahead.

00:15:40What?

00:15:41She just wants your money.

00:15:43Not everyone's a gold digger like you.

00:15:45You know what, actually, I'd be pleased to give her everything I have.

00:15:48Oh, you're hopeless.

00:15:50I think you two are the hopeless ones.

00:15:53Bray, take your brainless mistress and go.

00:15:56You don't know who you're messing with.

00:15:58No, no, no.

00:15:59I'll wait.

00:16:00I want to see what he can do.

00:16:03What are you doing?

00:16:04What are you waiting for?

00:16:05Kick them out!

00:16:06I promise you, all of you, if you lay a finger on her, you are going to regret it.

00:16:10What's going on here?

00:16:17What's going on here?

00:16:19Yes, me and my lovely girlfriend, we were having a nice evening when we found two disgusting rats in your restaurant.

00:16:26I apologize, Mr. Bullard.

00:16:28You are a valued guest, and we'll throw them out immediately.

00:16:32You're going to throw us out?

00:16:33Wait, you're Mr. Smith?

00:16:37Mr. Smith?

00:16:39What Smith?

00:16:40You idiots!

00:16:42This is Sam Smith of the Smith family, second only to the Grants in L.A.

00:16:47What?

00:16:49I'm so sorry, Mr. Smith.

00:16:51I had no idea you were dining here tonight.

00:16:53And this lady is?

00:17:00You mean she is?

00:17:02And I'm sorry, we didn't mean to cause any trouble.

00:17:05But these two kept disturbing us.

00:17:09Um, perhaps you could...

00:17:10Say no more.

00:17:11We'll throw them out immediately.

00:17:14What?

00:17:14Wait, you cannot do that.

00:17:16Even if you've Sam Smith...

00:17:18I'm the manager.

00:17:19I make the call.

00:17:21Get out.

00:17:21Both of you.

00:17:22No.

00:17:24There's no way I'm getting out of here.

00:17:26Perhaps.

00:17:27Hey!

00:17:27Don't touch me, you moron!

00:17:28Hey!

00:17:32Boss, what did Mr. Smith say to spook her so much?

00:17:37Things just got interesting.

00:17:40Shit.

00:17:41What is it?

00:17:42It's time to meet my mysterious stepsister.

00:17:48You would have handled it anyway.

00:17:49Yeah, I just got home.

00:17:52Thank you for earlier.

00:17:55Have you met your stepbrother yet?

00:17:57Nope.

00:18:01He's hiding.

00:18:02Smart of him.

00:18:09No, I was just avoiding embarrassing you.

00:18:12What are you doing here?

00:18:13No, that's my line.

00:18:14What are you doing here?

00:18:17Sophie brings you home.

00:18:18Emily?

00:18:20Emily, are you there?

00:18:21Um, I'll call you back.

00:18:23So, you're my stepsister.

00:18:26What are you talking about?

00:18:27Who was that?

00:18:28Your new lover?

00:18:29That's none of your business.

00:18:31Listen, however you got in, get out.

00:18:33Or...

00:18:33Or what?

00:18:35Pay me another thousand dollars to make me leave?

00:18:37Like that night?

00:18:39What are you talking about?

00:18:40Maybe we should finish what we started at the office.

00:18:42Okay.

00:18:44Emily, what are you doing?

00:18:51Say, David, it's not the way you take it forward.

00:18:56I, uh, David?

00:18:59Just getting to know my stepsister.

00:19:02You two are getting along better than expected.

00:19:05I'm just glad she's not fighting with me.

00:19:07Wait, um, Dad.

00:19:13He's my stepbrother.

00:19:17She's quite special.

00:19:20I like her.

00:19:23Wonderful.

00:19:24Well, I'll make us dinner to celebrate Emily being back.

00:19:27When did you figure it out?

00:19:35Figure what out?

00:19:36So, this is your game?

00:19:38Blackmail?

00:19:39Don't be so serious.

00:19:42Come on.

00:19:43Isn't sleeping with your stepbrother a little bit more exciting than...

00:19:46This is my house.

00:19:48You're not going to pull any tricks here.

00:19:50If you tell anybody about this,

00:19:52I swear I'll kill you myself.

00:19:57Are you ready for me?

00:20:00Things are getting more interesting.

00:20:02Are you ready?

00:20:04Are you ready?

00:20:05Are you ready?

00:20:06So, are you two men at the office today?

00:20:08We met earlier, actually.

00:20:15It was a pretty unforgettable night.

00:20:18Right, Emily?

00:20:22I...

00:20:23We'd love to hear more about it.

00:20:26It was nothing special.

00:20:28Nothing special?

00:20:31She was particularly passionate that night.

00:20:38We actually saw sides of each other

00:20:41that no one really gets to see.

00:20:45Sounds interesting.

00:20:47It was just a drunken encounter.

00:20:52Sorry, Dan.

00:20:53There was a...

00:20:55bug.

00:20:56It's okay.

00:20:57Well, since the two of you are here,

00:21:00I have an announcement to make.

00:21:02I'll be handing over the company

00:21:04to David.

00:21:06Wait, what?

00:21:08I'm getting old, tired,

00:21:09and I don't want to die at the desk.

00:21:11Hey, don't talk like that.

00:21:13You're going to live forever.

00:21:15Oh, come on.

00:21:15Seriously?

00:21:16You're going to say that now?

00:21:18It's not like it's going to make it seem

00:21:19like you care more.

00:21:20No, Emily.

00:21:21I don't mean that.

00:21:22Of course, now that you're back,

00:21:23the company is yours.

00:21:25She's been gone for so many years

00:21:26that we'd be lucky

00:21:28if she didn't bankrupt the company.

00:21:29So you'd rather give it to an outsider?

00:21:31I've already told you

00:21:33David is not an outsider.

00:21:35He's your stepbrother.

00:21:36Maybe more than that.

00:21:46How about we have a competition?

00:21:50Emily and I.

00:21:52You can have her work with the company,

00:21:54and if she proves herself to be capable,

00:21:57I'll step aside.

00:21:59Well, if the employees found out about it,

00:22:03they would help her succeed.

00:22:06That wouldn't be fair to you, David.

00:22:10What if I hide my identity?

00:22:12Nobody knows I'm back.

00:22:14Nobody at the company knows me.

00:22:17What if I can prove myself

00:22:18as just a regular employee?

00:22:21I'll prove it to you all.

00:22:23I swear.

00:22:31Yeah, the playboy himself.

00:22:34He was actually engaged to your stepsister

00:22:36before she married somebody else.

00:22:39Nothing.

00:22:40Just my dad coming home.

00:22:42So I'm dad now?

00:22:44Jesus fucking Christ,

00:22:46you scared me!

00:22:57You're rushing to explain to you your lover?

00:22:59He's not my lover.

00:23:01You sure have a fault.

00:23:03Give it back!

00:23:04Why it was such a rush to hang up?

00:23:06Are you all so familiar?

00:23:16It's a nice and nice nice.

00:23:18Thanks.

00:23:21What?

00:23:22What's going on?

00:23:31You...

00:23:32You...

00:23:33You weren't...

00:23:36I was nervous

00:23:36the first time you saw it.

00:23:39David?

00:23:40Are you okay?

00:23:46One sec.

00:23:55Jesus.

00:23:58Hey.

00:23:59Are you alright?

00:24:01Yeah.

00:24:02I just...

00:24:03saw a rat.

00:24:04Oh my god.

00:24:05Carl.

00:24:06I hate rats.

00:24:10It's actually a pretty clever one.

00:24:13You know,

00:24:14if it begs,

00:24:14I might let it live.

00:24:18What?

00:24:20But, uh...

00:24:21Don't worry.

00:24:23We'll take care of it.

00:24:24Are you sure?

00:24:25Yeah, of course.

00:24:26Are you sure?

00:24:33Yeah, of course.

00:24:35Okay, um...

00:24:36Come to the study

00:24:36when you change.

00:24:38Okay.

00:24:39Ew.

00:24:40It's disgusting.

00:24:41It's disgusting.

00:24:51You look like a drone rat.

00:24:53Who's a drone rat now?

00:25:01Never mess with a woman.

00:25:03You'll regret it.

00:25:04You're here.

00:25:18David.

00:25:19I just want to apologize

00:25:20for Emily's behavior

00:25:21at dinner tonight.

00:25:23Sorry.

00:25:24She needs

00:25:24time to adjust.

00:25:27She's that strong.

00:25:29She'll get in trouble someday.

00:25:31I'm just hoping she gets

00:25:32humbled by this competition.

00:25:33She's smart.

00:25:36She'll understand

00:25:36your intentions.

00:25:40David.

00:25:42I need a favor.

00:25:44Can you look out

00:25:45to your sister at work?

00:25:46My stepsister?

00:25:48Yeah.

00:25:50Sure.

00:25:51Of course, again.

00:25:53Okay.

00:26:00David.

00:26:01I need a favor.

00:26:03Can you look out

00:26:05to your sister at work?

00:26:07You should probably

00:26:07keep your eyes

00:26:08on the road.

00:26:11It's okay.

00:26:12I'm used to

00:26:13men's admiring glances.

00:26:16Impressive.

00:26:18But how did you know

00:26:19that I was looking

00:26:20if you weren't looking

00:26:21at me?

00:26:21I have to go.

00:26:27You have to get out.

00:26:28What?

00:26:30You wanted to keep

00:26:31your identity a secret,

00:26:32right?

00:26:33How am I supposed

00:26:33to get to work?

00:26:36It's always the bus.

00:26:48Jerk!

00:26:49I hate you!

00:26:57Your workspace.

00:27:03Are you serious?

00:27:05Across from the bathroom?

00:27:06Sorry, Mr.

00:27:07Emily.

00:27:09Boss orders.

00:27:19If that's all,

00:27:22I'll go now.

00:27:33Oh, watch it,

00:27:36you fucking idiot.

00:27:37I'm so sorry.

00:27:38I...

00:27:38Don't touch me.

00:27:43Watch it,

00:27:43you fucking idiot.

00:27:44I'm so sorry.

00:27:46Don't touch me.

00:27:47Oh, wait,

00:27:48I know you.

00:27:49You think I'm

00:27:49from the other date.

00:27:51God, what a day.

00:27:53Didn't we tell you

00:27:53this isn't your place?

00:27:55It's just a dress.

00:27:56You don't have to

00:27:57be so rude about it.

00:27:58I'll pay for it.

00:28:00It's not just a dress.

00:28:03It's designer?

00:28:05Amanda?

00:28:06Don't waste your words

00:28:07on this hick.

00:28:09Look what she's wearing.

00:28:10Do you think

00:28:11she knows about luxury?

00:28:13Luxury?

00:28:14Chanel 2020

00:28:15ready-to-wear

00:28:16doesn't use fake leather.

00:28:18Oh, and, uh,

00:28:19your belt buckle's resting.

00:28:20How does she know

00:28:20it's knockoff?

00:28:22What do you know?

00:28:23It's vintage.

00:28:25Also,

00:28:26I don't listen to her.

00:28:28The only thing

00:28:29that she knows

00:28:29about fashion

00:28:30is the Costco

00:28:31clearance section.

00:28:35Emily, right?

00:28:37It's a good thing

00:28:38it's your first day

00:28:38because I'm afraid

00:28:40you're fired.

00:28:41And I'm afraid

00:28:42no one here

00:28:43could fire me.

00:28:45Who do you think

00:28:45you are?

00:28:46The Grant Princess?

00:28:48Anna's a creative director.

00:28:49You think she can't

00:28:50fire you?

00:28:51Even if I'm not a Grant.

00:28:53Fairness in this

00:28:54company matters.

00:28:55You can't just

00:28:55fire me for no reason.

00:28:58And

00:28:58what if I am?

00:29:03If you're a Grant,

00:29:04then I'm

00:29:05Mr. Johnson's wife.

00:29:07I mean,

00:29:08you are.

00:29:09enough.

00:29:11I don't have time

00:29:12for people like you,

00:29:12so

00:29:13get out before

00:29:14I throw you out.

00:29:15Wanna bet

00:29:15even David Johnson

00:29:16wouldn't dare touch me?

00:29:18Don't

00:29:18push me

00:29:19or I will crush you

00:29:20like a bug.

00:29:23What's going on here?

00:29:24You're dead.

00:29:26Boss?

00:29:27This

00:29:27new girl

00:29:28who's disrespecting you?

00:29:29How did you know that one?

00:29:30That's not true.

00:29:32You started it.

00:29:33Actually,

00:29:33I think Anna's right.

00:29:34What?

00:29:36Well,

00:29:36being an intern

00:29:37ignoring company rules

00:29:38deserves punishment.

00:29:42That's true,

00:29:43Davey,

00:29:43then

00:29:43perhaps

00:29:46I might need to

00:29:47reconsider our partnership.

00:29:49Sam,

00:29:50what are you doing here?

00:29:51Well,

00:29:52let's hear to discuss

00:29:52our collaborations.

00:29:54Anna,

00:29:54how does the intern

00:29:55know Sam Smith?

00:29:58But

00:29:58I don't know

00:29:59seeing all these

00:29:59bullies and whatnot

00:30:00run around here,

00:30:01Davey.

00:30:01I thought you can

00:30:02even actually

00:30:03handle this business.

00:30:04Sounds like

00:30:05you're threatening me.

00:30:07I don't know

00:30:07when you tell me.

00:30:08Emily,

00:30:13disrespecting a superior

00:30:15is grounds for termination.

00:30:17But since this is

00:30:18your first defense,

00:30:18I'll be off with a warning.

00:30:20However,

00:30:21Anna,

00:30:22you've been working here

00:30:23for years,

00:30:24and look at what

00:30:24you've just done.

00:30:26You've provoked

00:30:26a public fight

00:30:27in my office.

00:30:30You can forget

00:30:30about your bonus

00:30:31this month.

00:30:32Seems fair.

00:30:33What?

00:30:34No, both.

00:30:34You can't do that.

00:30:35I'm sorry.

00:30:35Are you challenging me?

00:30:36I'm sorry.

00:30:38I thought

00:30:49the Smith era

00:30:50only cared about

00:30:50partying.

00:30:51Why the sudden

00:30:52interest in business?

00:30:54So you're Emily's

00:30:55stepbrother?

00:30:56Yeah, I heard

00:30:57you used to be

00:30:57engaged to her.

00:31:00They all say

00:31:00you're...

00:31:01playboy.

00:31:02You're actually

00:31:03quite too romantic.

00:31:03I'm just here

00:31:05to tell you

00:31:05this next group

00:31:05is going to

00:31:06draw two points,

00:31:06all right?

00:31:07But,

00:31:08one condition.

00:31:10I want Emily

00:31:11on that deal.

00:31:12What exactly

00:31:13is your relationship

00:31:14with her?

00:31:15Why do you care?

00:31:17She's my

00:31:17stepsister.

00:31:18Hmm.

00:31:20She just that?

00:31:24She's my

00:31:24stepsister.

00:31:25Hmm.

00:31:26Is she only that?

00:31:27What do you

00:31:29think you know?

00:31:30She's such a

00:31:31big reaction,

00:31:32don't you think?

00:31:32I mean,

00:31:32people might think

00:31:32she's your

00:31:33girlfriend or

00:31:33something.

00:31:34We were engaged

00:31:34before.

00:31:36She's divorced

00:31:37now, though,

00:31:37so I'm looking

00:31:39to marry her

00:31:39again.

00:31:40For real

00:31:41this time,

00:31:41because I love

00:31:42her.

00:31:43What makes

00:31:44you think

00:31:44you're worthy

00:31:45of a grant?

00:31:46What are you

00:31:51two doing?

00:31:56Do you need

00:31:57something?

00:31:58I want a new

00:31:58desk.

00:32:00Why?

00:32:01It's beside

00:32:02the bathroom.

00:32:03The men's

00:32:04bathroom.

00:32:05Yeah?

00:32:05Are you doing

00:32:06this on purpose?

00:32:07Are you that

00:32:07afraid of losing

00:32:08to me?

00:32:10You said you

00:32:11wanted to prove

00:32:11yourself.

00:32:12You're just

00:32:12raising the state.

00:32:13You couldn't

00:32:13work at Smith's,

00:32:15you know,

00:32:15because there

00:32:16are already

00:32:16going to get

00:32:16you to do

00:32:17the partnership

00:32:17for deeper

00:32:20connections,

00:32:20right?

00:32:21No, I

00:32:22don't agree.

00:32:23Damn it.

00:32:25Unless you

00:32:26want to call

00:32:26it quits.

00:32:28See,

00:32:28I don't know.

00:32:29Games have

00:32:29rules.

00:32:31I just raise

00:32:31the stakes.

00:32:32But if you

00:32:33won't cheat,

00:32:33I don't know.

00:32:47Yeah, let's do

00:32:48that.

00:32:48It's on.

00:32:49I feel like you

00:32:57like you're

00:32:58so much

00:32:59and I think

00:32:59it's weird

00:33:00but it goes

00:33:00hard.

00:33:01Drinks are

00:33:01here.

00:33:02Oh, so

00:33:03you're serving

00:33:04drinks now?

00:33:06Well, you look

00:33:07like a natural.

00:33:08It's my welcome

00:33:08party.

00:33:09Can you always

00:33:09try and be

00:33:09nice?

00:33:10You cost me a

00:33:11month's bonus,

00:33:12okay?

00:33:12Dream on.

00:33:13So like you're

00:33:13all having fun?

00:33:15Steve Johnson,

00:33:16I didn't think

00:33:17you'd join us.

00:33:20Yeah, I like

00:33:21to change things

00:33:21up sometimes.

00:33:23Oh, we're

00:33:23about to play

00:33:23a game if you

00:33:24want to join in.

00:33:25Surely, Mr. Johnson

00:33:26is too dignified

00:33:28to play all

00:33:28silly games.

00:33:30You know

00:33:31what?

00:33:32Sure.

00:33:34Alright, so

00:33:35rules are simple

00:33:36and whoever

00:33:36draws a king

00:33:37card can make

00:33:38the others do

00:33:38whatever they

00:33:39want, thus

00:33:47Okay, so

00:33:48I have the

00:33:49king card,

00:33:50so whoever

00:33:50is the

00:33:51ace

00:33:51or the

00:33:52queen

00:33:52have to

00:33:53kiss.

00:34:02And ace?

00:34:03Hey,

00:34:04you're lucky

00:34:04newbie.

00:34:05So who's

00:34:06the

00:34:06queen?

00:34:10That'd be

00:34:10me.

00:34:17No, no, no, I

00:34:23can't.

00:34:24Come on, it's

00:34:25just a game.

00:34:26He's the

00:34:26boss, and surely

00:34:27you can't kiss

00:34:28your boss, right?

00:34:29And Mr. Johnson

00:34:30probably doesn't want

00:34:31to kiss nobody

00:34:31like me, so

00:34:32actually, I do.

00:34:36What are you doing?

00:34:39It's after hours.

00:34:41I'm not your boss.

00:34:42You're not my

00:34:43employee.

00:34:43We're just

00:34:43having some fun,

00:34:44right?

00:34:45You know what?

00:34:49I think I'll

00:34:50just drink instead.

00:34:52Unless there's

00:34:53some reason

00:34:53that you don't

00:34:54want to.

00:34:56You're getting

00:34:56serious,

00:34:57and I'll look.

00:35:00You're back

00:35:01for the push,

00:35:01isn't it?

00:35:03I mean,

00:35:04games have

00:35:05rules,

00:35:06right?

00:35:08Kiss,

00:35:08kiss,

00:35:09kiss,

00:35:10kiss,

00:35:11kiss,

00:35:12kiss,

00:35:13kiss,

00:35:14kiss,

00:35:15kiss,

00:35:16kiss,

00:35:16kiss.

00:35:19She feels a bit

00:35:21shy,

00:35:21so we'll

00:35:23just drink

00:35:24instead.

00:35:32That slut.

00:35:35Who does she

00:35:35think she is

00:35:36trying to kiss

00:35:36David like that?

00:35:37You're overreacting.

00:35:38He's clearly

00:35:39not into her.

00:35:40Mr. Johnson

00:35:41is mine.

00:35:42Remember the stuff

00:35:45we used in the

00:35:46last bitch

00:35:46to try to seduce

00:35:46him?

00:35:47Do you have

00:35:47any bit left?

00:35:49Um,

00:35:49oh,

00:35:50doing this?

00:35:56Oh,

00:35:57Emily,

00:35:58you'll regret

00:35:59this.

00:36:04Hey,

00:36:05Emily,

00:36:05you good in there?

00:36:06Yeah.

00:36:06Hey,

00:36:22buddy.

00:36:23Yeah,

00:36:23what do you want?

00:36:23Can we do me a favor?

00:36:25What do you have in mind?

00:36:27My friend over there.

00:36:28Should I have it too much to drink?

00:36:30I need you

00:36:31to take some good care of her.

00:36:37My pleasure.

00:36:38Mm-hmm.

00:36:39Yeah.

00:36:42Do you want me to play

00:36:43another round?

00:36:43Yeah,

00:36:44it's fun.

00:36:49Where's Emily?

00:36:50You see her?

00:36:51I started going to

00:36:52the men's bathroom

00:36:53with a guy

00:36:54and she seemed

00:36:55pretty drunk.

00:36:57Oh,

00:36:57did they too?

00:36:59Oh,

00:37:00I don't think so.

00:37:01I mean,

00:37:02little Emily's

00:37:02too innocent for that.

00:37:04I mean,

00:37:05but you never know.

00:37:06I mean,

00:37:07she could be

00:37:08giving some more.

00:37:10Say one more word

00:37:11and I will

00:37:11break your jaw.

00:37:19Don't resist.

00:37:22Get your hands off her.

00:37:27Get your hands off her.

00:37:28You can wait

00:37:30your turn.

00:37:30I'm first.

00:37:35You okay?

00:37:37You okay?

00:37:49Who are you?

00:37:51Where are you taking me?

00:37:52Emily,

00:37:53just stop.

00:37:54I know what you're thinking.

00:37:58No,

00:37:58come here.

00:38:00Move.

00:38:05Where are you going,

00:38:15handsome?

00:38:16Do you need to get some sleep?

00:38:17am I not pretty enough

00:38:20for you?

00:38:21You're drunk.

00:38:24I'm clear

00:38:25and I know

00:38:27exactly what comes next.

00:38:36Someone works out a lot.

00:38:37you ask for this.

00:38:45You ask for this.

00:38:51You ask for this.

00:38:52You're so much better than my stepbrother.

00:39:04He's sneaky and...

00:39:05Hey, I'll pay you more than last time.

00:39:10You're mistaking me

00:39:12for an escort.

00:39:13Don't worry.

00:39:14I'm loaded.

00:39:19What are you doing?

00:39:20Let go of me,

00:39:21damn escort!

00:39:24Get some rest.

00:39:26I'll see you tomorrow.

00:39:28Come back!

00:39:30I'll report you!

00:39:31You'll never get another client again!

00:39:34What?

00:39:51Fuck!

00:39:58David Johnson!

00:40:00Yes?

00:40:02I want to tell you how to knock first.

00:40:05What did you do to me last night?

00:40:09I'm not surprised you don't remember.

00:40:11Your night was pretty...

00:40:13heated.

00:40:14Nothing happened.

00:40:15Right?

00:40:16Come on.

00:40:17You don't think that we actually slept together.

00:40:19Again.

00:40:20Do you?

00:40:20You were drunk.

00:40:22Not that much of an asshole.

00:40:24What about the bruises on my legs?

00:40:26You kind of got in a fight with a chair.

00:40:28And the marks on my wrist?

00:40:30I had to control me somehow.

00:40:32You wouldn't have got much sleep otherwise.

00:40:34Get your hands off her.

00:40:37Move.

00:40:42Thanks.

00:40:48That's it.

00:40:49You're not hiding anything from me.

00:40:52Right?

00:40:53All of these questions.

00:40:57It almost feels like you wish something did happen.

00:41:02No.

00:41:03Of course not.

00:41:05I was just...

00:41:07checking.

00:41:08What if I told you...

00:41:10there was something that I had to say?

00:41:12family?

00:41:18David?

00:41:20What are you two doing in here?

00:41:23Oh, we...

00:41:25She was just helping...

00:41:26choose my outfit.

00:41:31All right.

00:41:33Your dad wants you both downstairs.

00:41:35We'll keep them waiting.

00:41:36I mean, I need to go change.

00:41:45Sam, what are you doing here?

00:41:48You were just discussing your wedding plans.

00:41:53I...

00:42:06Emily, can you just...

00:42:17Hold on.

00:42:17Can you just wait a second, Emily?

00:42:18Please, please.

00:42:19You can't just barge into my house and propose to my dad.

00:42:22What am I to you?

00:42:23Some sort of pawn in your business arrangement?

00:42:25No, that's not what it meant, okay?

00:42:27Using our family's business as leverage.

00:42:29That seems like exactly what you're doing.

00:42:30It was a gift.

00:42:32Emily, look, I could give you the entire Smith group if you asked for it, okay?

00:42:35And I...

00:42:35No, look, look, look at me.

00:42:36I know this seems really impulsive of me to do, but I just...

00:42:39I've lost you before, and I don't want to lose you again.

00:42:41Okay?

00:42:41I don't.

00:42:42Can you please just give me another chance?

00:42:44That's all I'm asking.

00:42:55How touching.

00:42:58Is that how you prove yourself?

00:43:00Seducing men?

00:43:01Okay, well, you know what?

00:43:02Can you watch your mouth for once, maybe?

00:43:03Huh?

00:43:04I'm talking to my stepsister.

00:43:06Who are you?

00:43:07I'm her boyfriend.

00:43:08Believe it or not.

00:43:13Ain't that yet.

00:43:15We should ask Emily first.

00:43:20Emily, is he your boyfriend?

00:43:23Emily, is he your boyfriend?

00:43:42Yes.

00:43:44Yes, he is.

00:43:45He is.

00:43:47Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes.

00:43:49Yes, yes, yes, yes.

00:43:50I thought there was something different between us.

00:44:03David, did you talk some sense into Emily?

00:44:07No need.

00:44:09I'll marry Sam.

00:44:11Finally, you see things my way.

00:44:17There's nothing different.

00:44:19Anything different can happen between us.

00:44:25What's with her?

00:44:27Nothing.

00:44:28She's just eager to get married off.

00:44:34Did you guys hear?

00:44:35Apparently, the Smith Group collaboration is confirmed.

00:44:39I wonder who's going to be in charge of the project.

00:44:41Obviously going to be Anna.

00:44:42I mean, she's been working on it this whole time.

00:44:45I mean, you will let me work on it with you, right?

00:44:48Well, we'll see.

00:44:53Hey, idiot.

00:44:54Beg me and maybe I'll forgive you and let you join the project.

00:44:58Beg you to what?

00:44:59Stay away from me?

00:45:01Still got a sharp tongue, I see?

00:45:03Should I have everyone's attention?

00:45:06From now on, Emily will be the lead of the Smith Project.

00:45:12From now on, Emily will be the lead of the Smith Project.

00:45:16What?

00:45:17You'll report to her as needed.

00:45:20Mr. Johnson, you can't do that.

00:45:22I've been on the project this whole time.

00:45:23You can't just give this to her.

00:45:23Are you questioning my decision?

00:45:25No, I just...

00:45:26I need a reason.

00:45:27Looks like you're stuck here.

00:45:31Maybe come up with a better backup plan next time.

00:45:37Cue bitch.

00:45:38What tricks did you pull this time?

00:45:40Not everyone needs tricks like you to get ahead.

00:45:43I know you're the one that spiked my drink last time.

00:45:46At least I'm not as filthy as you.

00:45:48What does that even mean?

00:45:49We all know you slept with Mr. Smith for this project.

00:45:52Don't play innocent.

00:45:53You can't act that smug for much longer.

00:45:57I will expose your true face.

00:46:00You too.

00:46:01Come with me.

00:46:04Emily, did you need any help on your project?

00:46:06Can I work with you on the project?

00:46:09What are you two doing?

00:46:10Well, Mr. Johnson told us that we report to Emily now, so...

00:46:14Your old news.

00:46:16She'll regret this.

00:46:18Ah!

00:46:20Ah!

00:46:23Well, you need to work hard.

00:46:46Jesus Christ, you scared me.

00:46:48Maybe try a different approach.

00:46:50A different style.

00:46:51See you tomorrow.

00:47:19Well, you've got talent.

00:47:26I'll give you that.

00:47:28But you shouldn't have crossed me.

00:47:32I'm just going to add some...

00:47:34finishing touches.

00:47:41Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha.

00:47:49Looks like someone's eager to impress.

00:47:58Of course.

00:47:59I pulled several all-nighters just to deliver you a knockout punch.

00:48:03Can't wait to see it.

00:48:04Mr. Smith.

00:48:09David.

00:48:11Welcome.

00:48:12Roger.

00:48:12This is our project lead.

00:48:15So this is the girl.

00:48:17You know, my son is already engaged with the grants.

00:48:20I'm curious to see what you've got.

00:48:23Show.

00:48:23Your father doesn't know who I am?

00:48:30No.

00:48:31I wouldn't be sure you'd work fairly if you did, right?

00:48:33I didn't want that, did you?

00:48:36Do I get a kiss for her?

00:48:39After the project's over.

00:48:46Let's see about that.

00:48:48Yes.

00:48:53Hi, I'm Emily, the designer of this bridal collection.

00:48:59Here beside me is the gown I designed for this theme.

00:49:17Yes?

00:49:18This is your company's new design?

00:49:19I apologize.

00:49:23There must have been damage during storage.

00:49:26Look, I've known your stepfather, Carl, for many years.

00:49:30But I will not be made a fool.

00:49:32You grants cannot mock the smiths.

00:49:35Dad, I think there's just a misunderstanding.

00:49:38Her?

00:49:39She's greedy?

00:49:41Incompetent?

00:49:42No second chances.

00:49:43In fact, I'm going to reconsider your engagement to the grants.

00:49:49I warned you not to mess with me.

00:49:54I'm sorry.

00:49:55I'll just go then, I guess.

00:50:03Excuse me.

00:50:06What do you think you're doing?

00:50:10Excuse me.

00:50:11What do you think you're doing?

00:50:14This is the grant group.

00:50:16And you haven't heard our designer's concept out.

00:50:19Is this how you treat business partners?

00:50:20What did you say?

00:50:22You want me to respect this fucking garbage?

00:50:24You watch your words.

00:50:26I'm being civil out of respect for my stepfather.

00:50:28You've got to watch your manager when you talk.

00:50:30Okay, son.

00:50:31It's okay.

00:50:32Let's hear what other nonsense they have to say.

00:50:34Okay.

00:50:39Remember what I told you?

00:50:41I think dress doesn't have to follow one style.

00:50:46Stay calm, Emily.

00:50:47You can figure this out.

00:50:53Actually, this is exactly what we wanted you to see first.

00:50:58Like I said, marriage seems beautiful and sacred.

00:51:04It's so good, baby.

00:51:06But behind it lies

00:51:10Deception and calculation.

00:51:18This bridal collection is my tribute to all brides.

00:51:31Battle armor for their courage.

00:51:34Hold on.

00:51:37Hold on.

00:51:38It was you, wasn't it?

00:51:50You destroyed my dress.

00:51:51Well, you're crazy.

00:51:53I have no idea what you're talking about.

00:51:54Only you would do this.

00:51:55Yeah.

00:51:59Yeah, it was me.

00:52:00What are you going to do?

00:52:01Tell on me?

00:52:01I regret to inform you.

00:52:03You're fired.

00:52:05Come on.

00:52:06Who do you think you are?

00:52:07You're just an intern.

00:52:09Actually, she does have the authority to fire you.

00:52:12Mr. Johnson,

00:52:13whatever she's told you,

00:52:14it's all lies.

00:52:15She didn't have to tell me anything.

00:52:17Anna,

00:52:18you're fired.

00:52:21Why?

00:52:22For what?

00:52:23For this.

00:52:25Surveillance?

00:52:26No, there's no way.

00:52:27I clearly...

00:52:28You don't seriously think the office has one camera, do you?

00:52:32Oh, and by the way,

00:52:33she's not just an intern.

00:52:34She's the Grant family heiress

00:52:35and my stepsister, Emily Grant.

00:52:38We should...

00:52:38She's Miss Grant.

00:52:39No.

00:52:40Impossible.

00:52:40There's no way she's the chairman's daughter.

00:52:42She...

00:52:45I'm sorry.

00:52:46Miss Grant.

00:52:47Please forgive me.

00:52:50Security.

00:52:51Get her the hell out of here.

00:52:52What?

00:52:53No, no, no.

00:52:53Please.

00:52:53I'm sorry.

00:52:54I said I was sorry.

00:52:55Please.

00:52:55You can't kick me out.

00:52:56Don't do this.

00:53:01I'd say your father's probably going to hear about this pretty soon.

00:53:05Probably throw you a banquet to celebrate your return.

00:53:15Emily?

00:53:17I told you not to barge into my room.

00:53:20I'm sorry.

00:53:21I, um, I just wanted to give you this.

00:53:27You'll look so stunning at tomorrow's party.

00:53:34Who told you green was my favorite?

00:53:37It's your...

00:53:37It's your color.

00:53:40It's your favorite.

00:53:40Wait, did my dad put you up to this?

00:53:46To try and win me over?

00:53:49No.

00:53:50This won't make me accept you.

00:53:51It's not about that.

00:53:54I just want you to try it.

00:53:55No.

00:53:56Just try it.

00:53:57No.

00:53:57Just try it.

00:53:58No.

00:54:00What?

00:54:02Emily, what are you doing?

00:54:06I, I just, I can't mean to.

00:54:08It's fine.

00:54:09It's not her fault.

00:54:09I, um, I came in without asking.

00:54:11Mom bought you this dress, especially in France.

00:54:16Searched through dozens of stores just to find this limited edition piece, and this is how you repair her?

00:54:20David.

00:54:21Enough.

00:54:25David.

00:54:26Enough.

00:54:27We haven't wronged you.

00:54:29Mom was just trying to be kind.

00:54:30Why the hostility?

00:54:32Oh, the dress is yours now.

00:54:35Like it.

00:54:36Hate it.

00:54:36Throw it out.

00:54:37Burn it.

00:54:39Do whatever you want.

00:54:41Mom.

00:54:55I thought you two were getting along.

00:54:58So did I.

00:54:59Apparently she's just a spoiled princess.

00:55:03Give it time.

00:55:04Today's her big day after all.

00:55:05By the way, where is Emily?

00:55:09No idea.

00:55:11Maybe she's figuring out what to wear.

00:55:13She didn't like your dress.

00:55:30Emily, you look gorgeous.

00:55:31And that dress is beautiful on you.

00:55:34Just because I'm wearing your dress doesn't mean I forgive you.

00:55:37I'll give you two some time alone.

00:55:43You look stunning.

00:55:45I'm sorry for how I treated your mom.

00:55:49I overreacted.

00:55:51No, I should be the one to apologize for what I said.

00:55:53No.

00:55:53I should be the one to apologize for what I said.

00:56:01I should be the one to apologize for who I said.

00:56:02Hey, I'm sorry.

00:56:03I don't know.

00:56:04I don't know.

00:56:04No.

00:56:04I don't know.

00:56:05I don't know.

00:56:05Holy shit.

00:56:12This is the richest house in L.A.?

00:56:14It's like a palace.

00:56:17Look, this party is for Miss Grant.

00:56:21I pulled a lot of strings to get these invitations.

00:56:24Only knew his son.

00:56:26Stepson, to be precise.

00:56:28Miss Grant ran away years ago, married some nobody that her family didn't approve of.

00:56:32Now she's divorced and back home.

00:56:33Well, this party is her official introduction to society.

00:56:39That guy must be kicking himself now.

00:56:42Turn the divorce on that bitch, Emily.

00:56:44All of our business partners pulled out.

00:56:47Even our deal with the Grant's wealthy.

00:56:49I've done my part.

00:56:51The rest is on you.

00:56:52Don't worry.

00:56:53I'll make contact with the Grant's tonight.

00:56:58Is that Emily?

00:56:59What the fucking bitch?

00:57:07Emily.

00:57:08Emily.

00:57:09Sam.

00:57:11I'm so glad you're here.

00:57:12Thank you for coming.

00:57:13You look really good, actually.

00:57:14Do you like that?

00:57:15Hang on.

00:57:16I want you to meet someone.

00:57:17Dad.

00:57:18This is Emily.

00:57:19I remember you.

00:57:21You're the designer.

00:57:22No, no.

00:57:23No.

00:57:23Definitely not my dad.

00:57:24This is Grant.

00:57:25Emily Grant.

00:57:26Wait.

00:57:27You're the Grant engaged my son?

00:57:30I apologize.

00:57:32I didn't want the Grant name influencing people's judgment of my work.

00:57:35You're much too good for my wife.

00:57:38You bitch!

00:57:41What are you doing here?

00:57:42Who let you in?

00:57:54Since when do we need your permission to attend a Grant family party?

00:57:57Current season au couture.

00:58:00You got tricks.

00:58:01Oh my god.

00:58:01Okay.

00:58:02Hold on.

00:58:02Guys.

00:58:03Do you not learn your lesson at all?

00:58:04Seriously.

00:58:04Did you...

00:58:05Why are you guys here?

00:58:06What are you doing?

00:58:06Who are these people?

00:58:08That's such a very good question, Dad.

00:58:09Um...

00:58:10This is Emily's ex-husband.

00:58:12Looks like his mom.

00:58:14And...

00:58:14New lover.

00:58:16I guess.

00:58:17Wait.

00:58:17That's Emily's ex-husband?

00:58:20Mr. Smith.

00:58:21I apologize for the arrest of our incident.

00:58:23But please.

00:58:24We're just trying to warn you.

00:58:26Yes.

00:58:27Don't believe her.

00:58:28She's a fraud.

00:58:29My son took her in when she had nothing.

00:58:32But she betrayed him.

00:58:34Is that so?

00:58:35Of course.

00:58:36Besides.

00:58:37The Smiths are one of LA's finest families.

00:58:39We're only looking out for you.

00:58:41How thoughtful of you.

00:58:43Sure enough.

00:58:44Why else would we keep a scheming parasite like you for so long?

00:58:48They don't know who she is.

00:58:49Oh.

00:58:50We know what she is.

00:58:51She's a shameless, greedy whore.

00:58:54Yeah.

00:58:55Tonight is about Miss Grant.

00:58:57So leave now.

00:58:59Before I have the Grants thrown you out.

00:59:01Get out.

00:59:03What if I told you...

00:59:04I am Miss Grant?

00:59:06Come on, dear.

00:59:12You, Miss Grant.

00:59:14God, Emily, you kill me.

00:59:16Emily, I can't believe you tell such lies in this occasion.

00:59:20Pathetic.

00:59:21Fine.

00:59:22If you're Miss Grant, let's make sure that everybody knows.

00:59:26Hey, everyone!

00:59:28This woman claims to be Miss Grant.

00:59:30She is trying to ruin the real Miss Grant's big night.

00:59:34Throw her out!

00:59:35Sam, should we do something?

00:59:37It's fine.

00:59:38They're just digging their own graves at this point.

00:59:40Emily, get on your knees and apologize to me and the Grants.

00:59:45Then get out!

00:59:47God, take off that dress!

00:59:49And if I don't?

00:59:50Are you challenging the Grants' authority?

00:59:53Trust me.

00:59:54No one can touch me tonight.

00:59:56Now you apologize for your ignorance, and I might let you keep your dignity.

01:00:01Enough talk!

01:00:02Throw her out!

01:00:03Oh, hey!

01:00:03How dare you hit!

01:00:05What?

01:00:06You need a special occasion for that?

01:00:07Bitch!

01:00:08I'll teach you a lesson on behalf of the Grants!

01:00:11Wait!

01:00:16Who are you?

01:00:17How dare you touch me with your filthy hands!

01:00:23Oh, my God!

01:00:24It's Carl Grant, and that's his dad's son, David Johnson.

01:00:28You okay?

01:00:29I'm fine.

01:00:32Mr. Grant!

01:00:33This bitch is my ex-wife, pretending to be your daughter!

01:00:37Kick her out!

01:00:38Mr. Darrell must be furious.

01:00:40Once he kicks Henry out, he'll probably reward me for restoring the order.

01:00:43No.

01:00:47Mr. Grant, why?

01:00:51Let me be clear.

01:00:52The bitch you speak up is my daughter, Emily Grant!

01:00:57No, no, no, no.

01:00:58She can't be a Grant!

01:00:59Alice, what's going on?

01:01:00Don't you know the Grants?

01:01:02No, she can't be a Grant!

01:01:05My daughter left home to be with this loser?

01:01:08And you're questioning whether she's my own daughter?

01:01:15Bitch!

01:01:16It's all your fault!

01:01:17Mr. Grant, I...

01:01:19It's her fault!

01:01:20She seduced me, and she forced me to divorce your daughter!

01:01:24Enough!

01:01:25Guards!

01:01:27Throw them out and break their legs!

01:01:33Wait!

01:01:34Leave the past where it belongs.

01:01:36I could forgive you guys if you three crawl outside naked.

01:01:42Emily can't turn.

01:01:44It's freezing outside.

01:01:45Let the past be the past.

01:01:48But for what you said at my party tonight, we need to settle that.

01:01:52Unless you'd rather meet my father's security team.

01:01:57No, no, no, no, we'll do it.

01:01:59We'll do it.

01:02:00We'll do it.

01:02:02Don't look, Mom.

01:02:03Yeah.

01:02:04We'll do it.

01:02:16Hi.

01:02:19I'm looking for, uh...

01:02:21Emily.

01:02:22Oh, uh...

01:02:23Do you have an appointment?

01:02:25No, I'm...

01:02:25I'm an old friend.

01:02:27Oh, I'm sorry.

01:02:28I can't let you in without an appointment.

01:02:31Oh.

01:02:32Oh.

01:02:33Oh, Mr. Johnson.

01:02:37For, uh, Emily's office.

01:02:39Okay.

01:02:51Come in.

01:02:53Can we talk?

01:02:54Who let you in?

01:02:55I missed you, Emily.

01:03:00What are you doing?

01:03:01Let go.

01:03:01Get rid of that bitch, Alice.

01:03:03Let go.

01:03:03I can start over for a baby.

01:03:08I've warned you.

01:03:09Stay away from me.

01:03:11You're making me do this.

01:03:16Let go.

01:03:19I can't destroy this.

01:03:22Emily.

01:03:25What the fuck you're gonna do?

01:03:39If you're in the look at her again, I will kill you.

01:03:49Fuck you.

01:03:50and then

01:03:52you okay?

01:04:13Is there anything else

01:04:14that I can get the doctor

01:04:15to check you out again?

01:04:16I'm fine.

01:04:17The doctor already checked me.

01:04:19I should have recognized

01:04:19in the reception.

01:04:21This is my fault.

01:04:22I'm so sorry.

01:04:23I can't stand it anymore.

01:04:28And now I feel.

01:04:35Emily.

01:04:36Emily.

01:04:37Are you okay?

01:04:39I came as soon as I heard.

01:04:42I'm sorry.

01:04:42Are you all right?

01:04:43She's fine.

01:04:44She just needs some rest.

01:04:45Did I ask you?

01:04:46David, huh?

01:04:47You know, I'm starting to think.

01:04:52How does a big company

01:04:53like the Grant Group

01:04:54let in a sneaky little rat

01:04:55like you in Emily's office, hmm?

01:04:56Makes me wonder if

01:04:57I know someone let him in.

01:05:01Sam, this is not David's fault.

01:05:03Yeah, well,

01:05:04her fiancé's here now,

01:05:05so I think you can go.

01:05:05What am I to you?

01:05:21Get some rest.

01:05:23I'll go back to work.

01:05:24I won't be back.

01:05:33Okay, but I can't hear her.

01:05:34I've got to be fine.

01:05:35I'm sorry, Sam.

01:05:36There's somewhere I need to be.

01:05:38What are you...

01:05:38I've made my mind.

01:05:59What?

01:06:00I'll never let you go.

01:06:03You made her.

01:06:08I'll never let you go.

01:06:38How are you going to tell your dad?

01:06:48I don't know.

01:06:51And your mom?

01:06:55No idea.

01:06:58We have to be honest with him.

01:07:00No, no, you can't.

01:07:02Why not?

01:07:03It's not like we're blood-related.

01:07:05What are we going to say?

01:07:06Hey, Mom, Dad.

01:07:08We're together now.

01:07:09Yes, with my stepbrother.

01:07:12There's nothing wrong with...

01:07:13I can't.

01:07:14Please.

01:07:15Sweet.

01:07:18Okay.

01:07:21We can keep it to ourselves for now.

01:07:29So you're up for round two?

01:07:30I guess you're a hater, too, huh?

01:07:51I know you.

01:07:53You're that bitch's ex-husband.

01:07:54From top of the world to rock bottom.

01:08:02From boardrooms to back alleys.

01:08:07Pretty rough, isn't it?

01:08:08What do you want?

01:08:14You want to get back at her?

01:08:15Nanny just can't leave you alone, can he?

01:08:29Sam?

01:08:31Can't leave her alone?

01:08:33My own fiancee, does that bother you at all?

01:08:35Is that a problem?

01:08:36No.

01:08:37No.

01:08:45It's Brayden.

01:08:54He's the only one with these.

01:08:56He's trying to destroy me.

01:08:59I'll tell them that it's me in the photos.

01:09:01No.

01:09:01No, you can't.

01:09:02If you do, my dad and Sophie will find out.

01:09:05Then I'll explain that I pursued you.

01:09:06No, you can't do that.

01:09:08Emily, what are you really afraid of?

01:09:10I'm afraid you'll leave me.

01:09:12No.

01:09:15I'm afraid you'll leave or my dad will throw you out and try and keep us apart.

01:09:24I can't let that happen.

01:09:27Not now.

01:09:29Fix this.

01:09:36Emily, hold on a second.

01:09:38Are you okay?

01:09:40I'm sorry, Sam.

01:09:41What?

01:09:43I can't marry you.

01:09:45What?

01:09:46Emily, hold on.

01:09:48What are you talking about?

01:09:49It's me in those photos.

01:09:52I was at the darkest point in my life.

01:09:56And I made the mistake of trying to get revenge.

01:10:01So, I have two announcements to make.

01:10:04First, I will be stepping down as general manager.

01:10:09My stepbrother David will be taking full control.

01:10:11Second, I have failed at marriage.

01:10:17I will be canceling my engagement to the Smith family.

01:10:20Okay, Emily, just hold on, Emily.

01:10:21Just stop.

01:10:21Stop, okay?

01:10:22I don't care about that.

01:10:23All right?

01:10:23I don't care about the past.

01:10:25I'm sorry, Sam.

01:10:26No, no, no.

01:10:26It's fine.

01:10:27It's fine.

01:10:27I still love you.

01:10:28All right?

01:10:29It's okay.

01:10:29I love someone else.

01:10:32Who?

01:10:34Me.

01:10:35I'm the man in those photos.

01:10:39Holy shit.

01:10:48Emily, wait.

01:10:50Do you realize what you were doing?

01:10:52This would have all blown over.

01:10:53I was trying to protect you.

01:10:54I don't need your protection.

01:10:56I...

01:10:56I can't just hide behind you every time there's trouble, okay?

01:11:02Emily, I want us to be together.

01:11:07I want that too.

01:11:10You know, the worst you to leave.

01:11:15Then I'll leave.

01:11:16The job.

01:11:20The family.

01:11:23The name.

01:11:25I will leave everything behind.

01:11:27Nothing matters if I can't be with you.

01:11:36I'm just...

01:11:37I'm just like I'm scared to ruin things.

01:11:42I'm ruining everything.

01:11:43Like I did with my last marriage.

01:11:46Listen to me.

01:11:48Promise me.

01:11:51You won't do this alone.

01:11:53I am not brave.

01:11:55And you are not alone.

01:11:59Adelaide.

01:12:02Sam.

01:12:07How long, Adelaide?

01:12:09How long?

01:12:11When I was divorced in grade.

01:12:13Before you and me.

01:12:15I'm sorry, Sam.

01:12:16I never meant to hide it from you.

01:12:18That's fine.

01:12:19That's fine.

01:12:19I...

01:12:20I don't know why I'm so surprised.

01:12:22Honestly, I just don't know...

01:12:23I just hate being one step behind all the time, you know?

01:12:27It just...

01:12:28It just...

01:12:28It keeps me up.

01:12:29Okay.

01:12:29This one and only gift before me

01:12:38Another life, I guess, right?

01:12:48Sam.

01:12:49Please.

01:12:49You'll find someone wonderful.

01:12:51I believe that.

01:12:54Begging your pardon, Miss Grant.

01:12:56But your father would like to see you.

01:12:59Both of...

01:13:00I love someone else.

01:13:10Who?

01:13:11Me.

01:13:12I'm the man in those photos.

01:13:13Would someone like to explain this?

01:13:16It's my fault.

01:13:18I fell for David first.

01:13:20No.

01:13:21Don't blame Emily.

01:13:22If you need to punish someone, you punish me.

01:13:24Carl, calm down.

01:13:27It's not their fault.

01:13:29What Emily and I have is real.

01:13:31I swear to you.

01:13:33I will protect her.

01:13:35Forever.

01:13:36Why?

01:13:38Why are you only telling me now?

01:13:41You're...

01:13:42You're not angry?

01:13:44Of course I'm angry.

01:13:46I was running around arranging a marriage for you and the Smiths.

01:13:49Worrying about the two of you getting along together.

01:13:52If I had known you were together, then I wouldn't have wasted all that time and energy.

01:13:58I thought you'd be against it.

01:14:00Of course not.

01:14:01You're my daughter.

01:14:02How could I object to you being with someone so exceptional as this young man?

01:14:06What did you think?

01:14:07I wanted you to marry a man like Braid.

01:14:10And watch you suffer every day.

01:14:19Seriously.

01:14:22It's okay, Dad.

01:14:25You're the best vlogger in the world.

01:14:28I love you.

01:14:28I love you forever.

01:14:33You know how they say all stories need an ending?

01:14:43Well, here's mine.

01:14:46Sam is still unmarried.

01:14:49He's poured everything he has into his work and is now the backbone of the entire Smith family.

01:14:54As for my ex, Braid...

01:14:56You are under arrest.

01:14:56He was caught for tax evasion.

01:15:00Everything he had is gone.

01:15:02His next stop?

01:15:03Prison.

01:15:06As for me and David...

01:15:09I can't even get my dress to zip.

01:15:14Yeah.

01:15:15I'm pregnant.

01:15:15How do I look?

01:15:28Do I look huge?

01:15:30Maybe we should postpone the wedding until...

01:15:32Emily.
