00:00:03As for intimate matters, I can assure you performance has never been an issue.

00:10:52Doctor, how is he? How is my father?
00:10:56The cancer is spread aggressively without immediate treatment
00:11:00Then do something! Save him!
00:11:03Is there a treatment you can do?
00:11:05There is a new treatment
00:11:07Okay, then let's do it
00:11:09But maybe it's quite expensive
00:11:11How much?
00:11:12Around one million dollars
00:11:14A million dollars?
00:11:16Yes
00:11:17Can I get a loan or something?
00:11:21Actually, this is a new technology
00:11:23And there is no loan policy, sorry
00:11:51This is the last batch
00:11:54Yes, sir, the blonde want to know about ring sizes
00:12:11And Brunette asked about moving in
00:12:15And the redhead
00:12:17All of them want the Crawford name
00:12:20No one's qualified
00:12:24She was refreshing
00:12:26No pretense
00:12:28No schemes
00:12:29But she wasn't even here for surrogacy
00:12:33Sometimes the best candidate isn't looking for the job
00:12:48Hello
00:12:49Hi, The Reed
00:12:51I'm Adrian Crawford
00:13:02I've been thinking
00:13:03I've been thinking
00:13:06About yesterday
00:13:07I may have been a bit hasty
00:13:09You're reconsidering?
00:13:11Don't sound so smug about it
00:13:13I have my reasons
00:13:14As do I
00:13:18I'd like to propose a modification to the original terms
00:13:23What kind of modification?
00:13:25Joint custody
00:13:26You wouldn't be just carrying the child
00:13:28You'd be the baby's mother
00:13:30Why would you agree to that?
00:13:32You're honest
00:13:33Direct
00:13:34No
00:13:36Hidden agenda
00:13:37Qualities I want in my child's mother
00:13:39So I'd really get to be a part of the baby's life?
00:13:42Yes
00:13:43But understand this clearly
00:13:45We'll be parents
00:13:46Nothing more
00:13:47No
00:13:48Romantic entanglements
00:13:50No
00:13:51Emotional expectations
00:13:54Don't flutter yourself
00:13:56God
00:13:57Rich men and their egos
00:14:02Father
00:14:03Father
00:14:04The board is getting impatient
00:14:06Have you considered the arrangements I suggested?
00:14:09I've already made my own plans
00:14:11Adrian
00:14:12If you're thinking of using some random surrogate
00:14:16To produce an heir
00:14:18Forget it
00:14:19The Crawford name means something
00:14:21I won't let it be tainted by
00:14:23I've already chosen my fiance
00:14:25What?
00:14:26We'll discuss this at dinner
00:14:28Did I just get promoted from surrogate to fiance?
00:14:38Correct me if I'm wrong
00:14:40But didn't you just say
00:14:42Just parents
00:14:43Nothing more
00:14:45The situation requires adaptation
00:14:49Hmm
00:14:50Is that CEO talk for I change my mind?
00:14:53If we need a convincing story
00:14:55You'll be staying at my house during the pregnancy
00:14:57And after the baby comes?
00:14:59We'll arrange for an amicable separation
00:15:01Continue parenting
00:15:02And I'll uh
00:15:03Arrange for any additional compensation for the complexity
00:15:08The original amount is fine
00:15:10But I am gonna need it soon
00:15:13I am gonna need it soon
00:15:14Welcome to the family, Miss Reed
00:15:36Wow
00:15:38I think my whole apartment could fit in this entryway
00:15:44Well, well, well
00:15:52Missed me so much you tracked me down
00:15:59Can't get over me, huh?
00:16:03Following me here like a lost puppy
00:16:05Following you?
00:16:06Why would I?
00:16:07What are you doing here?
00:16:09Sweetheart
00:16:10This is my family's house
00:16:12I'm sure you know that
00:16:14Hmm

00:16:17But look at you now
00:16:19Sneaking into my house
00:16:21Finally realize what you're missing, baby?
00:16:23Get your hands off me, you creep
00:16:26Hmm

00:16:49She's just...
00:16:50Watch your mouth
00:16:51Show some respect to your future aunt
00:16:56This is crazy
00:16:57You seriously don't know
00:16:59How?
00:17:00I won't repeat myself
00:17:01Stay away from my fiance

00:17:04You can kiss that trust fund
00:17:06Goodbye

00:17:31And he's your...

00:17:54Where am I staying?
00:17:55Here
00:17:57What?
00:17:59Unless you prefer explaining to the staff
00:18:04Why the happy couple
00:18:05Sleep in separate rooms
00:18:07Oh, of course
00:18:08Fake engagement
00:18:09Real roommates
00:18:13Don't worry
00:18:14I'll be a perfect gentleman
00:18:29What are you doing?
00:18:44This is the line
00:18:46Don't cross it
00:18:47Ever
00:18:49For sure
00:18:51Good
00:18:59My plan worked perfectly
00:19:13Wait
00:19:14How did I...
00:19:25Sir, are you okay?
00:19:26Fine
00:19:28Fine
00:19:29Continue
00:19:38Stay on your side
00:19:46Lila
00:19:47Wake up
00:19:52Lila
00:19:53Please
00:19:58он
00:20:02Oh
00:20:12Sorry
00:20:14I'll hang out
00:20:15Yes
00:20:18You
00:20:25Now
00:20:26Sorry, didn't see you there.
00:20:37You're always in the way.
00:20:42Ah, my brother's mysterious fiance.
00:20:46Mrs. Crawford.
00:20:48Catherine, please. We're family now, supposedly.
00:20:52Helen, tea, please.
00:20:54Yes, Mrs. Crawford.
00:20:56So tell me, dear, how did you and Adrienne meet exactly?
00:21:04Through mutual friends.
00:21:08Oh, really? Mutual friends.
00:21:13Dear, what friend of Adrienne's would possibly move in your social circles?
00:21:19Unless this is more of a business arrangement.
00:21:23I'm sorry?
00:21:24Well, a girl of your position, surely some negotiation was involved.
00:21:30The only negotiation was whether I would take his last name or keep my own.
00:21:35Next weekend is our family dinner, and as Adrienne's fiancee, your presence is required.
00:21:51I'd be honored.
00:21:52Hmm. Perfect.
00:21:55I'm sure you can find something more appropriate to wear.
00:21:58You can go now.
00:22:02Excuse me, Miss Rie.
00:22:15I need to clean.
00:22:16Of course.
00:22:17Let me just move this.
00:22:18Is this what you're wearing to the family dinner?
00:22:27How creative.
00:22:29Must be hard in your family.
00:22:31Watching you chase after rich men.
00:22:34Let me help you with this.
00:22:36My friends!
00:22:38How clumsy of me.
00:22:39You did that on purpose.
00:22:42Do you think you can really marry Mr. Crawford?
00:22:44You're just trash trying to climb the social ladder.
00:22:51Mr. Crawford!
00:22:53She just attacked me!
00:22:56I was trying to help with it!
00:22:58Get out!
00:22:59But I was just...
00:23:00One more word and you're fired.
00:23:03Get out!
00:23:04What happened?
00:23:13Nothing.
00:23:14I need some space.
00:23:15I want to stay in the guest room tonight.
00:23:17Lila, you don't have to do that.
00:23:18I need some space.
00:23:22You take the bed.
00:23:24I'll take the sofa.
00:23:26I miss you so much, Daddy.
00:23:29Don't worry about me, okay?
00:23:31As long as we can get you better,
00:23:32I won't let their words get to me.
00:23:35I promise.
00:23:37Lila, what happened?
00:23:39What should I do?
00:23:53How's the happy couple?
00:23:54How's the happy couple?
00:24:02Oh, that's awkward.
00:24:08Just a small thing.
00:24:09Um, that is not a small pinch.
00:24:12It's okay.
00:24:13I'm here.
00:24:15You're safe.
00:24:18Perfect timing for the injection.
00:24:19Two.
00:24:31Seven.
00:24:39Ah!
00:24:40Ah!
00:24:41Ah!
00:24:43Oh!
00:24:44Ah!
00:24:45Ah!
00:24:47Ah!
00:24:47Ah!
00:24:48Ah!
00:24:48Ah!
00:24:48Ah!
00:24:49Ah!
00:24:49Focus. This is just a simple medical procedure. Just pretend she's not right outside.
00:25:16Mr. Crawford, is everything okay in there?
00:25:19Yeah, I'm fine. I just need some assistance.
00:25:24Oh, do you need my help?
00:25:26No, I didn't mean...
00:25:28Are you sure? Honestly, it's fine. I can come in if you need me to.
00:25:32Come in.
00:25:42So, you want to help?
00:25:45Of course. What do you need me to?
00:25:48Oh, you're... Oh, you're... I'm so sorry. I didn't realize. I'm just gonna just go somewhere. I just need you somewhere very far.
00:26:03Hey. Ah! It's fine.
00:26:07Well, that was helpful.
00:26:13Are you okay?
00:26:16Yeah. Dr. Anderson said that the hormone shocks would hurt, but it's...
00:26:20It's causing you pain.
00:26:21Yeah, it's a little uncomfortable. But I mean, it will pass.
00:26:27Oh.
00:26:27Here.
00:26:30Oh, okay.
00:26:31Thanks.
00:26:44Thanks.
00:26:49Well, the hormone shocks were a part of the agreement, and any resulting pain is technically a work-related issue.
00:26:54And as your employer, I have a duty of care.
00:26:57Okay.
00:26:59Okay.
00:26:59Okay.
00:26:59Purely professional care.
00:27:27Purely professional, huh?
00:27:47Adrian.
00:27:47Um, about this weekend...
00:27:52I'm sorry. There's an emergency in Atlanta. The merge is falling apart.
00:27:56Thompson, get the jet ready in 20.
00:28:00Your family invited me to dinner.
00:28:02Guess I'll handle it on my own.
00:28:04Well, I don't suppose we should expect punctuality from a person who's probably never had a proper watch in her life.
00:28:15I introduce him to the Lawson Harris, the senator's daughter.
00:28:20I don't understand why he picked this gold digger from God knows where.
00:28:24What did you say she did, Ethan? Retail?
00:28:28Worse.
00:28:29A wannabe writer.
00:28:31She probably thought that landing a Crawford would be her best-selling story.
00:28:38Well, I have tried to be welcoming.
00:28:41I had the chef prepare her place setting and everything.
00:28:44She probably couldn't figure out which work to do.
00:28:46I apologize for the slight delay.
00:29:04My, my.
00:29:06Trying so hard to look the part.
00:29:09James, do make sure none of the silver goes missing after dinner.
00:29:13I suppose Adrian's credit card is getting some good use.
00:29:17And although money can buy designer clothes, it can't buy breeding.
00:29:21Actually, I made this dress myself.
00:29:28Oh, darling.
00:29:30A seamstress for a daughter-in-law?
00:29:32How quaint.
00:29:36At least we know who's going to be mending Adrian's socks.
00:29:39I may not have been born into privilege, but I was raised with something much more valuable.
00:29:47Integrity.
00:29:48Integrity.
00:29:49Is that what you call seducing your way into our family?
00:29:55How much, how much will it take you to disappear in your price?
00:30:01The difference between you and I, Mr. Crawford, is that I don't think that everything comes with a price tag.
00:30:11Excuse me.
00:30:20Stay calm.
00:30:24You can do this.
00:30:26Getting all dressed up for me, baby.
00:30:40What's the rush?
00:30:42We're all family here.
00:30:44Well, almost family.
00:30:46Don't touch me.
00:30:48You used to like it when I touched you.
00:30:51Remember how shy you were?
00:30:53Always saying no.
00:30:55Ramp off me, bastard!
00:30:57Careful now.
00:30:59One scream from you, and everyone at dinner is going to know what kind of girl you really are.
00:31:05Now, where were we?
00:31:15Everything all right, dear?
00:31:17You look flushed.
00:31:19So, as I was saying about the monsters...
00:31:23Stop it.
00:31:27Something wrong, Miss Reed?
00:31:29No, I just...
00:31:30Stop it!
00:31:33Enough.
00:31:34No class?
00:31:36No manners?
00:31:37I don't know how you seduced my son, but someone like you could never deserve a place in this family.
00:31:44I...
00:31:45I...
00:31:46I'm the one who sued her.
00:31:53Who convinced her to give me a chance.
00:31:58Adrian.
00:31:59If anyone's unworthy in this relationship, it's me.
00:32:02You want to know how we met?
00:32:04She crashed into my life, quite literally.
00:32:06Papers flying, coffee spilled.
00:32:08Unlike some people, she didn't care about my name or my money.
00:32:14She, uh, refused me several times.
00:32:17Called me too arrogant, too controlling.
00:32:19But first woman who dared to stand out to me.
00:32:22And that's when I knew I had to have her.
00:32:24I...
00:32:25Sir, two things.
00:32:30Your sister has invited Miss Reed to tonight's family dinner.
00:32:33And your jet is ready.
00:32:34We can go now.
00:32:35Cancel it last.
00:32:41What's the merger?
00:32:44Yes, sir.
00:32:47Funny that last week family's dinners were the most pointless waste of time in existence.
00:32:55Something's more important in business.
00:33:01Oh, what a touching story, uncle.
00:33:05Too bad it's either a complete lie or she's been playing us both.
00:33:11What are you talking about?
00:33:13We've been dating for three years.
00:33:17I have pictures of us together.
00:33:22What?
00:33:24She probably planned this from the start.
00:33:26Dating me to get close to the family, then setting her sights higher.
00:33:31You manipulative little trick.
00:33:33Face it, uncle.
00:33:34You're just another rung on her ladder to the top.
00:33:39Face it, uncle.
00:33:41You're just another rung on her ladder to the top.
00:33:48That's for every lie you just told.
00:33:51Adrian, how dare you hit my son?
00:33:56Where do you think you're going?
00:33:57We are not finished here yet.
00:33:59Yes, we are.
00:34:05I'm sorry.
00:34:06I shouldn't have left you alone with that.
00:34:07Thank you for coming back and for making up such a beautiful story about us.
00:34:17Your hands, what happened?
00:34:19As my fiancée, you have access to the family accounts.
00:34:38I expect you to use them.
00:34:40I didn't want to presume.
00:34:42You're a Crawford now.
00:34:52Dr. Anderson.
00:34:55Mr. Crawford.
00:34:57The embryos are ready, so we can proceed with the implantation tomorrow morning.
00:35:02I see.
00:35:03What is it?
00:35:06Is something wrong with the embryos?
00:35:08I've been thinking.
00:35:11Perhaps we should approach this matter in a more natural manner.
00:35:17Between the husband and wife.
00:35:22What are your thoughts?
00:35:25I think that we should go to bed.
00:35:29We have a really big day tomorrow.
00:35:32So.
00:35:33I mean, I...
00:35:36Good night.
00:35:41You know, you look like a giant polar bear in that outfit.
00:35:46Focus on the procedure.
00:35:50Try to relax, Mrs. Crawford.
00:35:58There.
00:35:59See that white spot?
00:36:03That's our baby.
00:36:04That's our baby.
00:36:10You know, I can walk.
00:36:12Doctor's orders?
00:36:13You seem more nervous than I do.
00:36:19I'm merely following medical procedure.
00:36:21Look at her.
00:36:32Look at her.
00:36:33She's acting like a princess.
00:36:36She was probably a waitress last week.
00:36:41Now she's got Mr. Crawford wrapped around her finger.
00:36:45She's looking.
00:36:45I'm so nervous.
00:36:46Oh.
00:36:55Oh.
00:36:57Oh.
00:36:59Oh.
00:37:01Oh.
00:37:04Oh.
00:37:09Oh.
00:37:10Adrian!
00:37:20Not quite. Looking a bit unstable there, baby.
00:37:23Let go of me!
00:37:25Come on, you used to love being in my arms.
00:37:29Remember how we would spend hours at the cafe?
00:37:32You would lean in to me while reading your favorite book?
00:37:35Did she?
00:37:36Adrian! I was just getting food, I swear.
00:37:45Get out!
00:37:51Stomach.
00:37:52Lila, what's wrong?
00:37:53My stomach. I think that there's something wrong.
00:37:56If anything, anything happens to my fiancée or child, I can't guarantee what I'll do.
00:38:02And you, what you want.
00:38:06You will never have.
00:38:08Never.
00:38:14Child.
00:38:15Three years she wouldn't let me touch her.
00:38:19In a few weeks, with my uncle, and she's carrying his child.
00:38:23You want the perfect family?
00:38:26Well, it's not gonna happen.
00:38:29Thompson, clear my schedule.
00:38:42Everything over the next month goes to Jack.
00:38:44Sir, what happened?
00:38:46Do you need my help?
00:38:47You can't help on this one.
00:38:48Just do what I say.
00:38:49You and Ethan, you've never really gotten along, have you?
00:38:58Why is that?
00:39:06You seem very concerned about him.
00:39:08I, I just...
00:39:09Just get some rest.
00:39:11It's been a rough day for you.
00:39:12Adrian, why did you choose to believe me just now?
00:39:16No reason.
00:39:18I just know you're not like that.
00:39:20Thanks.
00:39:22Get some rest.
00:39:24Do whatever makes you comfortable.
00:39:25Anything at all, I'll be around.
00:39:27Anything I want?
00:39:29Are you sure about that?
00:39:30What are you doing?
00:39:59This isn't nutritious.
00:40:02The baby wants chocolate.
00:40:04The baby wants chocolate.
00:40:06Yeah.
00:40:07And chips and ice cream.
00:40:10You wouldn't want to deny your child, would you?
00:40:14I've been researching optimal pregnancy nutrition.
00:40:17See, week by week, guidelines.
00:40:20Okay, okay, okay.
00:40:21How about a compromise?
00:40:23One treat per day.
00:40:25Half a treat.
00:40:27Three quarters.
00:40:29Huh?
00:40:30Mm-hmm.
00:40:30Mm-hmm.
00:40:31Mm-hmm.
00:40:33Mm-hmm.
00:40:50Congratulations.
00:40:52The fetus is developing perfectly.
00:40:54Really?
00:40:56Everything looks wonderful.
00:40:59Now that we're in the stable period,
00:41:01I would recommend you starting some prenatal exercise.
00:41:06What kind of exercise?
00:41:10Now, hold her from behind in a maternal pose.
00:41:20Maybe we should skip this part.
00:41:22Good train. Let's do it properly.
00:41:24Guide her arms up.
00:41:35This is a little intimate.
00:41:38And now, the supporting stretch.
00:41:47Oh dear.
00:41:50Beautiful form, Mr. Crawford and Mrs. Crawford.
00:41:56Maybe we should continue this at home.
00:41:58Yeah, please.
00:41:59Please.
00:42:05The Charity Gala isn't a test.
00:42:07The Charity Gala isn't a test.
00:42:19Your father specifically invited me to attend.
00:42:24You look perfect.
00:42:25Just be yourself.
00:42:37The Charity Gala isn't a test.
00:42:38The Charity Gala isn't a test.
00:42:39You look perfect.
00:42:40Just be yourself.
00:42:41Then...
00:42:42This...
00:42:43This is not me.
00:42:45This is not me.
00:42:58It's been too long.
00:43:19You look exactly the same.
00:43:28And you must be the fiancee.
00:43:39I'm so pleased Adrienne has found someone after all these years.
00:43:44That's really kind, but I'm sorry, who are you?
00:43:49I'm just someone who cares about Adrienne's happiness, more than anyone else.
00:43:54Oh my god, you two are finally back together.
00:44:05Everyone, look who's here, the golden couple.
00:44:09I heard Adrienne Colford was engaged.
00:44:12I knew it was you, Vivian.
00:44:14When is the wedding?
00:44:18Actually, I'd like to introduce you all to my fiancee, Lala Reid.
00:44:26We're expecting our first child, and of course, you're all welcome to the wedding.
00:44:35She's pregnant?
00:44:36Oh, I'm so sorry.
00:44:39I just assumed congratulations for you both.
00:44:47Adrienne Colford in a complete unknown?
00:44:49How did you manage that?
00:44:51Adrienne chose her over Vivian.
00:44:52Is he crazy?
00:44:53Oh, Benji, how have you been?
00:44:56Great.
00:44:57Let's go.
00:44:58They can be so judgmental, can't they?
00:45:07Don't take it too personally, dear.
00:45:12Gentlemen, what are y'all talking about?
00:45:24They do look like the perfect couple.
00:45:39Drinking?
00:45:40I thought you were pregnant.
00:45:42None of your business.
00:45:47You know how Adrienne is, always has to win, especially against me.
00:45:53He hates when I take things from him.
00:45:55What are you talking about?
00:46:04Perfect couple, right?
00:46:06Until Vivian fell madly in love with me, leaving dear uncle heartbroken.
00:46:17Since then, whatever I want, he has to take.
00:46:23Whatever I have, he has to win.
00:46:26Like you.
00:46:29What you want, you never have.
00:46:32Never.
00:46:33You and Ethan, you've never really gone along, have you?
00:46:39You don't get it.
00:46:40Stop being naive.
00:46:41You're just his tool for revenge.
00:46:46I'm just his tool for revenge?
00:46:55What do you think you're doing?
00:47:10You are pregnant.
00:47:11Why are you drinking?
00:47:12Oh, now you care.
00:47:14It's soda.
00:47:16I know what I'm doing.
00:47:33What happened back there?
00:47:35Talk to me.
00:47:37Lila, I am worried.
00:47:40She talked to Ethan, but not me.
00:47:44Well, you do care so much about your nephew, don't you?
00:47:50Why don't you open the door?
00:48:07Please.
00:48:08Please.
00:48:09We walked that season I'd close.
00:48:31I'd walk at a.
00:48:33The act is still warm
00:48:40I apologize about last night
00:48:44I was
00:48:44I was just worried about you
00:48:47Worried about me
00:48:48Or worried about the baby
00:48:50What do you mean?
00:48:55Is this why you're being so nice to me?
00:48:59Making me breakfast
00:49:00Being all protective
00:49:01It's just for the baby
00:49:04Natalie
00:49:06You've been so strange since yesterday
00:49:09Why?
00:49:11Was Vivian your girlfriend?
00:49:18Yes
00:49:19And then she got with Ethan
00:49:27Yes
00:49:30Okay, so I'm just
00:49:33Vivian and I were
00:49:34Sir, the single version is falling apart
00:49:42We need you immediately
00:49:43I'm in the middle of summer
00:49:45The board is threatening to pull out
00:49:48I'll be there
00:49:50We need to finish this conversation as soon as I get back
00:49:58Of course
00:49:59Business first
00:50:01Lila
00:50:06Just go
00:50:07Sir, there have been complications
00:50:21Explain
00:50:22During your absence
00:50:24Mr. Ethan has been meeting with board members
00:50:27Suggesting your sudden marriage plans
00:50:29Indicate obstacle decision making
00:50:32Several executives are questioning if someone so personally distracted
00:50:37Should
00:50:39And hurt the company
00:50:40Mr. Crawford, we've been discussing my personal life
00:50:46Your sudden access has let me be very clear
00:51:04This company took a 40% profit loss before I took over
00:51:07Within three years I tripled our market share
00:51:10Every major merger, every successful acquisition, every stock surge, my execution, my strategies
00:51:24So yes, I am getting married
00:51:26So yes, I am getting married
00:51:29And yes, I took some time off
00:51:31And no, not a single person in this room has the right to question my commitment or my capability
00:51:39Because without me, there wouldn't be a company left to inherit
00:51:45Now
00:51:46Shall we discuss the merger?
00:52:15Adrian, what the hell were you thinking at the board meeting yesterday?
00:52:36I was doing my job
00:52:38Your job is to follow the family strategy
00:52:42Ever since she came into your life
00:52:45You've been undermining everything we've built
00:52:48You leave Lila out of this
00:52:51You know, I don't have to stand here and listen to this
00:52:54Yeah, run along
00:52:56Adults are talking business now
00:52:58We just need to bore him for a moment, dear
00:53:01Business matters
00:53:02You wouldn't understand
00:53:04That girl
00:53:11Is a poison to the Crawford name
00:53:15She's nothing but a broodmare
00:53:22After she delivers
00:53:24Pay her off
00:53:26And be done with it
00:53:27Adrian needs someone who understands this world
00:53:30Someone like me
00:53:32Vivian is joining Crawford Industries tomorrow
00:53:37Non-negotiable
00:53:39She will follow you every day
00:53:41Just like before
00:53:43And your little pet project can't stay home
00:53:46And just state that's all she's good for
00:53:49Get out!
00:53:52Both of you!
00:53:53How dare you?
00:53:54If you dare mention my wife's name again
00:53:56I will burn Crawford Industries to the ground
00:53:59Before either of you get to touch it
00:54:01Adrian, be reasonable
00:54:03Reasonable
00:54:03She is worth a thousand of you
00:54:05Tomorrow
00:54:079 a.m.
00:54:09Vivian starts
00:54:10No discussion
00:54:11Is that all?
00:54:14Yes, for now
00:54:16But don't disappoint me again
00:54:18I don't want to see you again
00:54:20I don't want to see you again
00:54:21I don't want to see you again
00:54:22I don't want to see you again
00:54:23I don't want to see you again
00:54:24I don't want to see you again
00:54:25I don't want to see you again
00:54:26I don't want to see you again
00:54:27I don't want to see you again
00:54:28I don't want to see you again
00:54:29I don't want to see you again
00:54:30I don't want to see you again
00:54:31I don't want to see you again
00:54:32I don't want to see you again
00:54:33I don't want to see you again
00:54:34I don't want to see you again
00:54:35I don't want to see you again
00:54:36I don't want to see you again
00:54:37I don't want to see you again
00:54:38I don't want to see you again
00:54:39Stop it. Stop checking. This is ridiculous. I was independent before. I don't need a
00:55:04man to make me breakfast in bed and to hold me whilst I sleep. No, I'm not gonna be that
00:55:12girl. I can make my own meals. I don't need his perfectly prepared little plates or his
00:55:23original spreadsheets. Improved marrow. Way to get back at Ethan.
00:55:37Milo! I'm fine! You're not fine. Hospital, now! I'm fine!
00:55:43Thanks. I know we've had our differences, but I really appreciated you today.
00:56:05You know, you used to look at me like that. All sweet, sincere.
00:56:11Don't. Why not? Is there really no chance for us?
00:56:16Ethan. Lila, he's just using you. You're his revenge against me. A tool. And you deserve better than that.
00:56:28Adrian, stop! What are you doing? I'm protecting you.
00:56:34From what? He's helping. He brought me here. My hand was bleeding.
00:56:37So now you're defending him. No, I'm defending the truth.
00:56:42Sometimes, I guess people surprise you.
00:56:46I see.
00:56:48Adrian...
00:56:49I'll call the doctor to come.
00:56:51I want a full blood panel, fetal monitoring, bring the OB-GYN down immediately.
00:57:00Sir, it's just the morning call. I want a full prenatal checkup.
00:57:05I've already spoken to Dr. Anderson. He's going to be down here in ten minutes.
00:57:09Always so controlled. Aren't you, Uncle?
00:57:12Some of us actually know how to make Lila happy.
00:57:17Remember our beach dates?
00:57:21How you said I was the most fun you ever had?
00:57:27Thompson, bring in the catering. The Michelin star one.
00:57:31Lila says she's got a hankering for Australian Wagyu beef.
00:57:35Oh, well done. No sauce.
00:57:38I don't think that I did say...
00:57:40How about when we watched your favorite movie?
00:57:43Pride and Prejudice. BBC adaptation, 1995.
00:57:47She likes to watch it when she's feeling stressed.
00:57:50Which is why I upgraded our home theater system.
00:57:52To have all the original films from the BBC on track.
00:57:55You did what?
00:57:57Wow!
00:58:00Using money to get to her heart.
00:58:03Huh, Uncle?
00:58:08Ooh, the Alice Army's wings fully renovated.
00:58:10Named after Lila's grandmother, as she mentioned.
00:58:14Oh, it's a fully funded.
00:58:17Anonymous donor. Hmm.
00:58:19He may be able to offer you money, but you're gonna miss this.
00:58:40Is this normal rich people behavior?
00:58:43Try smart enough.
00:58:44I've already ordered the prenatal vitamins. They should arrive shortly.
00:58:49They're custom formulated to her blood and genetic profile.
00:58:53Wow. He remembered all that about me.
00:58:56I remember everything about you.
00:59:01Maybe you should come back when there's less testosterone in the air.
00:59:07Guys, she's tired. We should leave. Let her rest.
00:59:14Is this just another competition, Ethan?
00:59:18Or does he actually care?
00:59:19Is this just another competition, Ethan?
00:59:22Or does he actually care?
00:59:41Yes, Father?
00:59:42Vivian's been hospitalized.
00:59:45Overwork, they say, from cleaning up your company's mess.
00:59:49I have meetings.
00:59:50Cancel them!
00:59:52Go to visit her right now.
00:59:54Either you show proper respect to the woman I chose for you,
00:59:58or else I will have to call an emergency board meeting.
01:00:12You came.
01:00:22Let's skip the performance, Vivian.
01:00:26Still so cold.
01:00:28Don't you remember when you used to bring me soup when I was unwell?
01:00:32That was a long time ago.
01:00:34We were really great together, Adrian.
01:00:37We could be together again.
01:00:39I don't know what game you're playing at, but it won't work.
01:00:42What we had,
01:00:44I never took it as seriously as you pretended to.
01:00:47But Lila, she's different.
01:00:50She's real.
01:00:51A pregnant gold digger is real?
01:00:55Please.
01:01:02I guess some things never change.
01:01:08Watch your words.
01:01:10Stay away from my wife.
01:01:12My little girl.
01:01:24Daddy.
01:01:27Your hand.
01:01:29It's nothing.
01:01:31I need to tell you something.
01:01:34I'm gonna be a mother.
01:01:36Is it that Ethan boys?
01:01:38No, no.
01:01:39Then who?
01:01:41It doesn't matter.
01:01:43But what does matter is that this is my baby.
01:01:46And I'm gonna love them so much.
01:01:49With all the love that you gave me.
01:01:53Baby.
01:01:55I'm so sorry.
01:01:57I'm sorry I couldn't,
01:01:59couldn't give you better.
01:02:01Daddy.
01:02:02If only I were healthy, if I could work.
01:02:04Daddy, don't.
01:02:06The hospital bills.
01:02:08Where are you getting money from?
01:02:11Don't tell me you sold yourself to some men.
01:02:13No, no.
01:02:14It's not like that.
01:02:16Did someone take advantage of you?
01:02:18My little girl pregnant all alone?
01:02:21She's not alone.
01:02:26Hi, Mr. Reid.
01:02:27I'm Adrian Crawford.
01:02:28I'm the father of her child.
01:02:34Adrian.
01:02:36I'm not just the father.
01:02:38I'm the man who's gonna spend the rest of his life making sure your daughter and our child get everything they deserve.
01:02:43Pretty words from a rich man.
01:02:46Not words. Facts.
01:02:48I've already arranged a transfer to a private medical facility.
01:02:51Full treatment plan, best specialists.
01:02:53Adrian.
01:02:54Adrian.
01:02:56And I promise you this.
01:02:58Every morning, she's gonna wake up knowing that she is cherished.
01:03:02Every decision I make, every step I take will be to ensure her happiness.
01:03:07You really mean that, don't you?
01:03:09Yes, sir, I do.
01:03:11Well...
01:03:14Maybe I can stop worrying.
01:03:26For what you said in there.
01:03:28I know you were just trying to make my father feel better.
01:03:30No, no, no, no.
01:03:32I wasn't just doing anything.
01:03:34Every word I said in there is true.
01:03:37Adrian.
01:03:43Laila, I need to tell you something.
01:03:45I've been falling for you ever since you crashed into my office with that ridiculous donor questionnaire.
01:03:51Yes, we had a contract, but...
01:03:54I realized...
01:03:56You've become everything to me.
01:03:59You're not my surrogate.
01:04:02You're not my convenient fiancé.
01:04:06You're my partner.
01:04:09If you have me.
01:04:13But what about Ethan and Vivian?
01:04:16What about them?
01:04:20Aren't you trying to just get revenge on Ethan and...
01:04:23Revenge?
01:04:24I never loved Vivian.
01:04:26And Ethan, he's not worth a second thought.
01:04:28Really?
01:04:30Then who was the guy I saw competing with Ethan?
01:04:35That was...
01:04:41I was jealous, okay?
01:04:44The thought of you with him.
01:04:46Wow.
01:04:47The great Mr. Crawford.
01:04:49Jealous.
01:04:51Don't mention that.
01:04:52I have a reputation to make that.
01:04:54Hmm...
01:05:08I'm not letting you go.
01:05:10Not ever.
01:05:11I'm not letting you go.
01:05:19Surrogacy?
01:05:21Contract marriage?
01:05:23Oh, this is too perfect.
01:05:24I'm not zoning off thekr...
01:05:25I'm not zoning off the
01:05:34hand.
01:05:36I like that.

01:24:48Oh my god, this story sounds exactly like a powerful scandal.
01:25:00Wait, is this about the Adrian Crawford?
01:25:05The billionaire CEO giving up everything for love.
01:25:09I'm crying.
01:25:09Is everything okay?
01:25:14I think I just went viral.
01:25:18I figured out stories about us.
01:25:20Look.
01:25:22Should I be concerned about what else you've revealed about me?
01:25:25Have you seen the comments?
01:25:43They're calling us heartless villains.
01:25:46Can't believe they're trying to suppress all true love diseases.
01:25:50Crawford Industries lost my business.
01:25:52Team Adrian, all the way.
01:25:56Yes, Penguin Publishing.
01:25:58Um, sorry, I actually have Random House on the other line, so I'm gonna have to...
01:26:02The movie rights?
01:26:05Um, I'm sorry.
01:26:07I'm gonna have to call you right back.
01:26:08Okay, thank you.
01:26:10The movie rights.
01:26:11What?
01:26:12Oh my god.
01:26:13My wife is so popular now.
01:26:14I know.
01:26:15Your father?
01:26:25Son, the board wants you back.
01:26:28Take your position.
01:26:30Your inheritance.
01:26:32I'll have to ask my wife.
01:26:35What do you think, Mrs. Crawford?
01:26:36First order of business.
01:26:43Starting without me.
01:26:45Perfect timing.
01:26:46I'm announcing your termination.
01:26:49You can't fire me.
01:26:51I'm a shareholder and a senior executive.
01:26:54The company crisis last month wasn't an accident.
01:26:57You and Ethan deliberately sabotaged our deals.
01:27:00You can't prove any pre-email, every call, every secret meeting without competitors.
01:27:07All documented.
01:27:09Lawsuit's already been filed.
01:27:11You and Ethan will be hearing from our lawyers.
01:27:14Oh.
01:27:16Oh.
01:27:23Oh my god.
01:27:25Yeah.
01:27:25Yeah.
01:27:26Mm.
01:27:27Mm.
01:27:28Mm.
01:27:29Mm.
01:27:30Adrian, I, uh, I think my water just broke.
01:27:35Yeah.
01:27:36Come home.
01:27:40Mr. Crawford, they vote for new director.
01:27:47For her, he'd drop everything.
01:27:52Including a multibillion dollar.
01:27:54Before we vote, there is something you should know.
01:28:07Adrian and Lila were legally married two months ago.
01:28:12And they have my full blessing.
01:28:16Both my girls still awake.
01:28:30Both my girls still awake?
01:28:36I'm just finishing.
01:28:40How are the first was?
01:28:41She'll be with you.
01:28:41Oh Ma'am.
01:28:44I was like, oh, oh, oh.
01:28:50Yeah.
01:28:51Yeah.
01:28:52Okay.
01:28:53I love your beautiful friends.
01:28:56Have a pleasant, sweet relative.
01:29:04Yes.
