Transcript

00:00:00Emma had just caught her fiancé, Nathan, cheating with her biggest rival the night before their wedding.

00:00:07This whole forbidden affair really revs me up.

00:00:13It's her last night as a bachelor.

00:00:17I can't stand the thought of you being here.

00:00:19As if that wasn't bad enough, a positive pregnancy test that didn't belong to her was lying in Nathan's trash can.

00:00:27Emma was devastated.

00:00:30Despite his infidelity, Emma planned to go through with the marriage, then divorce Nathan for half of his fortune as payback.

00:00:41Please leave a message at the tone.

00:00:43Do we smell again?

00:00:46God, who's late to their own wedding day?

00:00:50But Emma never cared about money.

00:00:53She loved Nathan and secretly hoped that things could still work between them.

00:01:00Finally, Nathan, where the hell have you been?

00:01:02Emma, Emma, listen. Something's come up. Amber is sick.

00:01:06Amber? Who cares? How is that your problem?

00:01:09You know she's my agency's top model and she's supposed to pose for the Bell-Om jewelry show today.

00:01:13Today is our wedding day, you slimy piece.

00:01:18Bell-Om is an important client. I can't afford to disappoint them.

00:01:21Besides, Amber is your friend. I thought you'd have a little compassion, Emma.

00:01:26Compassion?

00:01:27Look, I can't talk right now. We'll reschedule the wedding. Goodbye.

00:01:32Nathan.

00:01:34Oh, he hung up on me?

00:01:37What?

00:01:38What?

00:01:38What was supposed to be the happiest day of her life had become a total nightmare.

00:01:47No, Dad. I have no idea why she left. Maybe one of your ridiculous contracts scared her off.

00:01:53I want you to take responsibility. You're supposed to be the CEO soon. Don't you care about the company?

00:02:00Appearances matter, Eric. The board won't accept a bachelor as their CEO.

00:02:05Fine. Find me a suitable bride, and I will sign the paperwork.

00:02:10I had a suitable bride. You scared her off.

00:02:14Find yourself a wife in the next 24 hours, or our company goes down the drain!

00:02:19And put the damn bow tie back on.

00:02:26Interesting. Hot, eligible bachelor looking for a wife.

00:02:32I added a few names, sir.

00:02:33I don't have a choice. So just get somebody here as quickly as you can, okay?

00:02:37Right away, Mr. Rapp.

00:02:40A wild idea struck Emma like a bolt of lightning.

00:02:44This was how she would get revenge on her cheating fiancé.

00:02:48Hi. My name is Emma. Emma Miller.

00:02:52That was fast.

00:02:53Eric. I heard you're in need of a bride, so here I am.

00:03:06Walk with you.

00:03:08I don't remember seeing you on my list of potential brides.

00:03:11Oh, uh, yeah, I was a late addition. You must have just not noticed me.

00:03:18I doubt that.

00:03:19It would be impossible not to notice you.

00:03:24Uh, listen, Mr. Roberts, I...

00:03:27Eric, please.

00:03:29Eric.

00:03:29Eric, I'm sort of trying to get revenge on my cheating ex-fiancé by marrying you, so you'd be doing me a favor with this wedding.

00:03:39That's good.

00:03:41Because you'd be doing me a favor as well.

00:03:43So, what do you say?

00:03:46Oh, uh, how?

00:03:53Emma Miller, will you marry me out of the sheer convenience for us both?

00:04:03Okay, let's do this.

00:04:05Let's go.

00:04:08I now pronounce you husband and wife.

00:04:12Are you going to kiss the bride?

00:04:13As their lips touched, Emma's mind went blank.

00:04:18She had never been kissed like this.

00:04:20For a moment, she forgot all about Nathan.

00:04:23Next.

00:04:24And the fact that Amber was now pregnant with his child.

00:04:28Oh my god, that was...

00:04:30Fun?

00:04:31Exhilarating?

00:04:32I was going to say crazy, but...

00:04:34God, yeah, it's exhilarating being married to a complete straight hurt.

00:04:38Um, about that.

00:04:39Now that we're married, I think there's maybe a few things you should know about.

00:04:44Don't tell me you are a masked vigilante by night.

00:04:48Nothing that heroic, I'm afraid.

00:04:51I'm somewhat of a public figure.

00:04:54My family's company has generated a considerable amount of wealth.

00:04:59You say that like it's a bad thing.

00:05:02As a wise man once said, more money, more problems.

00:05:07Mr. Roberts, is it true that you tied the knot?

00:05:09Does this mean you're the CEO of Kaleidoscope Entertainment?

00:05:11No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.

00:05:13That's enough, that's enough, that's enough.

00:05:14Back up.

00:05:15Kaleidoscope?

00:05:16How rich are you?

00:05:22You know what?

00:05:23You should take that.

00:05:24When you're done,

00:05:27why don't you meet me at this hotel?

00:05:28Miss, over there.

00:05:35Uh, we're here.

00:05:38What do you want?

00:05:39Don't hang up.

00:05:42Where have you been?

00:05:43I tried calling.

00:05:44Oh, I was busy.

00:05:45It is my wedding day.

00:05:47Listen, I need your help.

00:05:49Amber is too sick to model for the Bellarm show.

00:05:51I need you to step in for her.

00:05:53Oh, now you need me.

00:05:55Well, gee, I wouldn't want to take such a big opportunity away from precious Amber.

00:05:59Baby, I know I messed up.

00:06:02You have every right to be upset.

00:06:04Yeah, gee, you think?

00:06:06You're the only available model who could possibly get here in time.

00:06:10This show is for the Bellarm crown bracelet.

00:06:12The prize of the collection.

00:06:14This could make or break a career, understand?

00:06:16This is your time to shine, Emma.

00:06:18You're right.

00:06:20It is my time to shine.

00:06:23All right, I will be there as soon as I can.

00:06:26And when I get there, you and I are going to have a little chat.

00:06:36Where to Mr. Roberts?

00:06:37Back to the manor?

00:06:39Not yet.

00:06:40I want you to pull up everything you can find about my...

00:06:43Your wife.

00:06:45Emma Miller.

00:06:50Let's see where she's headed.

00:06:53Follow that car.

00:06:54As Emma arrived backstage at the Bellarm fashion show, she couldn't help but feel a glimmer

00:07:02of hope until she saw Nathan.

00:07:04It took you so long.

00:07:05Are you kidding me?

00:07:06You just left me at the altar.

00:07:07You're a mess.

00:07:09You're not even wearing shoes.

00:07:09Can we get our camera ready, please?

00:07:11Do what you can.

00:07:12Nathan!

00:07:13Go!

00:07:13Okay, here is the centerpiece of the crown.

00:07:24What's going on?

00:07:25It's too big.

00:07:27It was fitted for him, but not you.

00:07:29My God, we're...

00:07:30We don't have time for you, sir.

00:07:32I will make it work.

00:07:36Here, put this on.

00:07:38What's this?

00:07:40What does it look like?

00:07:41It's a mask.

00:07:42Look at your face.

00:07:43Don't look at me like that.

00:07:45Bellarm insisted.

00:07:45They want to...

00:07:47I like the bracelet.

00:07:49Maintain a certain...

00:07:51Mystique.

00:07:52Oh, I get it.

00:07:54It's like a mystery.

00:07:56Like when you don't know the sex of your unborn baby.

00:08:00Uh...

00:08:00Baby, I don't know.

00:08:03Just put the mask on, alright?

00:08:05Sure, Nathan.

00:08:06Whatever Bellarm wants.

00:08:08Curtain in five.

00:08:09Five.

00:08:09Thank you, five.

00:08:15Hey, girly.

00:08:19How's my favorite client?

00:08:21And yes, I tell all my clients they're my favorite.

00:08:24But with you, I mean it.

00:08:26I'm at the Bellarm fashion show.

00:08:28Nathan wants me to fill in for Amber.

00:08:29That's great.

00:08:30This could be your big break.

00:08:31Not great.

00:08:33Amber is pregnant with Nathan's child.

00:08:35And is out with morning sickness.

00:08:37Oh, my God.

00:08:38Oh, my God!

00:08:40Yeah, I know.

00:08:41No.

00:08:41Also, uh, I got married this morning to someone that I just met.

00:08:51Girl, I have to ask.

00:08:53Are you having a psychotic episode or something?

00:08:56Maybe.

00:08:57Okay, listen.

00:08:58Nathan wants me to wear this ridiculous mask.

00:09:02He says that the client wants it, but I know it's because he just doesn't want me in the spotlight.

00:09:06Dad, as your friend and manager, I won't let him get away with it.

00:09:10Don't worry.

00:09:11I have a plan, but I'm going to need your help.

00:09:17Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to this year's annual Bellarm Jewelry Show.

00:09:31Finally, it was Emma's moment to shine.

00:09:35Julius, Bellarm's founder himself.

00:09:37I hope everything's to your liking, sir.

00:09:39Nathan, why is Amber wearing that god-awful mask?

00:09:44Oh.

00:09:45I thought it would add, like, this nice.

00:09:47Oh, see, I don't pay you to think.

00:09:49This better go good, Nathan.

00:09:51Or your head is going to roll.

00:09:53Bellarm is thrilled to present the star of our spring collection, the crown bracelet.

00:10:00Sorry, folks.

00:10:01I'm not sure what's going on.

00:10:03Our model, Amber, was supposed to be wearing the...

00:10:06Nathan, where is my bracelet?

00:10:10This stunning piece was designed by our founder, Julius Durand.

00:10:19Her beloved daughter, and worn in an unconventional, yet memorable style.

00:10:25Then, something caught Emma's eye, a face in the crowd, but not just any face.

00:10:36Then, disaster struck.

00:10:39I knew it.

00:10:54You're an imposter.

00:10:55Somebody get this imposter off my stage.

00:10:56She broke the crown bracelet.

00:10:58I'm sorry.

00:10:59I didn't mean to.

00:11:00It was an accident.

00:11:03Who the hell do you think you are?

00:11:06That's Emma Miller.

00:11:07She used to be a hot model until her career tanked a few years back.

00:11:10Let me rephrase.

00:11:11What is she doing on my stage?

00:11:13Where is the girl that I hired?

00:11:15Amber fell ill at the last minute.

00:11:18Emma must have snuck in wearing the mask.

00:11:20Why, I wouldn't be surprised if she poisoned Amber to steal the spotlight.

00:11:24Oh, you begged me to take over, you lying...

00:11:27I'm not!

00:11:29I should have you arrested.

00:11:32You are ruined.

00:11:33Your career is over.

00:11:35Well, the career that's ending today is yours, Julius.

00:11:41Unless you change your tone, I'm back away from Miss Miller.

00:11:45Now.

00:11:47Eric.

00:11:48Mr. Roberts.

00:11:49My apologies, sir.

00:11:51Clearly, your manners are as polished as your tacky jewelry.

00:11:57If you would be so kind as to...

00:11:58I'm sorry, Eric, was it?

00:12:01You can call me Mr. Roberts.

00:12:05Kaleidoscope Entertainment.

00:12:05CEO.

00:12:08Show some respect, nitwit.

00:12:11This is Kaleidoscope.

00:12:13They could buy Global 20 times over.

00:12:20Miss Miller.

00:12:21He's so kind as to join.

00:12:25Wait a minute.

00:12:26Hey, baby, Emma.

00:12:29Hey.

00:12:31Do you know this guy?

00:12:32What?

00:12:33Are you jealous?

00:12:36I've long been a fan of Miss Miller's career.

00:12:39I'd like to see her succeed.

00:12:41Unlike some people.

00:12:44Let's go.

00:12:44You will be hearing from my lawyers.

00:13:05You just swooped in there and snapped your fingers.

00:13:09Hey.

00:13:10What are husbands for?

00:13:11Oh, my God.

00:13:13You're my husband.

00:13:13And I'm your wife.

00:13:17I'm...

00:13:17I ruined the fashion show.

00:13:20The media is going to have a field day.

00:13:22Nathan is going to destroy me.

00:13:23They will do nothing of the sort.

00:13:26I meant what I said in there.

00:13:29I really want to see your career flourish.

00:13:32Are you real?

00:13:34Were you made in some kind of, like, perfect man lab?

00:13:38Trust me.

00:13:39I'm far from perfect.

00:13:42We all have our secrets.

00:13:43Oh.

00:13:46That's all right.

00:13:48Emma suddenly realized that her fairytale wedding might be over unless she acted.

00:13:55Eric, there's something that you should know about me.

00:13:57Emma Miller.

00:13:59I grew up in Ohio.

00:14:02Promising modeling career until two years ago when your idiot fiancé made a bad business decision.

00:14:08Bachelor's degree.

00:14:09And it's a charity.

00:14:11Even though you're broke.

00:14:13And you have a cat.

00:14:15Named Daisy.

00:14:15Okay, how did you know?

00:14:17I had my assistant run a thorough background check on you.

00:14:21You were not one of the women from the pre-approved list.

00:14:24I'm really sorry.

00:14:25You were just...

00:14:25You were there and you needed a wife and I was devastated over...

00:14:28Emma.

00:14:29It's okay.

00:14:30I knew right away.

00:14:33And I'm glad.

00:14:34You are?

00:14:35I could never end up with somebody that my father approves of.

00:14:40Some stuffy aristocrat with no personality, poor manners, and even worse breath.

00:14:46But Emma, you are a gift.

00:14:55Sorry, it's my manager.

00:14:58It's fine.

00:15:00You can take it.

00:15:04How bad is it?

00:15:06This just in, Belle Am's show spiraled out of control when former model Emma Miller went

00:15:20full stolen identity and replaced Amber Lee, Global Entertainment's top model.

00:15:28Although, she did end up breaking a priceless bracelet.

00:15:33Whoops.

00:15:33She also absolutely served.

00:15:38She is in her queen era and we are here for it.

00:15:44Are you seeing this?

00:15:46Not now, babe.

00:15:46I need to think.

00:15:48Emma is blowing up.

00:15:50The media is taking her side.

00:15:52That was supposed to be my moment.

00:15:54Uh-huh.

00:15:54This is humiliating me.

00:15:57Us.

00:15:58She probably broke that bracelet on purpose.

00:16:01We can't let her get away with this.

00:16:03What do you want me to do?

00:16:05That night, Eric brought Emma to the honeymoon suite of the most lavish hotel in the city.

00:16:11This room is incredible.

00:16:13It's bigger than my last apartment.

00:16:15Well, I hope you don't mind the honeymoon suite.

00:16:18My father has people watching my every move, so I need to make the marriage look legit.

00:16:23So you can be the CEO of Kaleidoscope?

00:16:25That's right.

00:16:26It is all my father talks about.

00:16:31You know, frankly, I don't have any interest in the family business.

00:16:34Okay, well, I say if you don't love it, then don't do it.

00:16:39Is that right?

00:16:40Weren't you the one that was about to marry their cheating fiance before I showed up?

00:16:44I'm sorry.

00:16:48I'm sorry, that came out wrong.

00:16:50No, you're right.

00:16:52I love Nathan despite the way you treated me, and in return, he...

00:16:58Oh my God, I'm such an idiot.

00:16:59No, no, no, no.

00:17:00You are not an idiot.

00:17:04You're incredible.

00:17:04You're gorgeous, brave, maybe a little impulsive.

00:17:12He is a fool for letting you go.

00:17:16I would never let something like that happen.

00:17:26Uh, I'm gonna go take a shower.

00:17:32A very cold shower.

00:17:34Wait, uh, just wait a second.

00:17:44What?

00:17:44What's wrong?

00:17:45Are you okay?

00:17:46No, this is great.

00:17:47I mean, this is crazy hot, and you're perfect.

00:17:50It's just...

00:17:51It's okay, you can tell me.

00:17:54Is it my breath?

00:17:55No.

00:17:56Um, I'm...

00:17:58I've never...

00:18:02This would be your first time.

00:18:04Oh, wow.

00:18:08You're a famous model.

00:18:10You have a fiancé.

00:18:11I just assumed that...

00:18:12Nathan's the only man I've ever been in a serious relationship with.

00:18:16And he was the one who said that he always wanted to wait until marriage, and I always thought

00:18:19it was a religious thing, but it turns out he wasn't waiting.

00:18:24He just didn't want to be with me.

00:18:27That guy is an idiot.

00:18:31And you have nothing that you need to worry about.

00:18:34Yeah, I want to.

00:18:35I mean, believe me, I do.

00:18:36It's just that all this is happening so fast.

00:18:39I mean, God, I don't even know your middle name.

00:18:42It's okay.

00:18:44I am in no rush.

00:18:47We have all the time in the world.

00:18:54It's Tucker.

00:18:55By the way.

00:18:56Eric Tucker Roberts.

00:19:00I know.

00:19:01I know.

00:19:02It's a family name.

00:19:04Emma and Eric spent the whole night talking, kissing, and getting closer.

00:19:09The whole thing felt like a dream.

00:19:11Eric?

00:19:26Eric?

00:19:27Sorry, I didn't want to wake you, but I thought that you might be hungry.

00:19:43Oh, I have your espresso.

00:19:47Here.

00:19:54It's Nathan.

00:19:55I'm surprised it took him this long.

00:19:58Should I answer?

00:19:59I've got a few words for that guy.

00:20:01Okay, thanks, but I can't have you fighting all my battles for me.

00:20:06Suit yourself.

00:20:09What do you want?

00:20:10Emma!

00:20:11So good to hear your voice, babe.

00:20:13Wish I could say the same.

00:20:15Where the hell are you?

00:20:16You disappeared after the whole Belong fiasco.

00:20:18You mean after you threw me under the bus and tried to ruin my career?

00:20:22Listen, babe.

00:20:27I know that now.

00:20:31Everything's a mess.

00:20:33I'm sorry.

00:20:35I just want a chance to make things right.

00:20:37Please, Emma.

00:20:38I have to see you.

00:20:40You're still my fiancé after all.

00:20:42Yeah, about that.

00:20:44What's that supposed to mean?

00:20:45It means that we should discuss some things.

00:20:51I mean, okay.

00:20:53Let's meet up and talk.

00:20:55And we go out to a nice dinner.

00:20:56Just like old times.

00:20:58What do you say?

00:21:04Fine.

00:21:04I'll see you tonight.

00:21:06Thank you for coming.

00:21:07I hope you're hungry.

00:21:11Chef, he's been cooking up a storm.

00:21:13You hired a private chef.

00:21:15Best in the city.

00:21:16He comes highly recommended.

00:21:17Only the best for you, my love.

00:21:23I'm happy the chef prepare your favorite.

00:21:25Don't you worry.

00:21:27May I?

00:21:29So, where's Amber?

00:21:30I thought she'd be staying here.

00:21:32They are keeping her overnight in the hospital for observation.

00:21:35Really?

00:21:37Gosh, I hope she pulls through.

00:21:39What's her diagnosis?

00:21:40I think she has a growth of some kind.

00:21:42Yeah, definitely some kind of growth.

00:21:45You know, I have a feeling that she'll get better in nine months.

00:21:53Listen, babe.

00:21:55Sorry I pushed the wedding.

00:21:58I got so caught up in work, I lost sight of what's important.

00:22:02Really?

00:22:04Amber got in my head, but you're my priority.

00:22:07Your stake, sir.

00:22:08Steak?

00:22:12Sure.

00:22:13Your favorite.

00:22:14Five years, Nathan.

00:22:16We were together for five years.

00:22:19And?

00:22:20I'm a vegetarian.

00:22:22Are you sure?

00:22:23I ordered a steak.

00:22:25And for the lovely lady, spaghetti pomodoro.

00:22:28That's not right.

00:22:29You ordered a steak.

00:22:30No, this is my favorite meal.

00:22:33How did you know?

00:22:34Courtesy of Mr. Roberts.

00:22:37He'd like to pay for tonight's dinner and sends his congratulations on your wedding.

00:22:42I guess it's the least he could do.

00:22:44Well, it was a little early.

00:22:46I'm not even married yet.

00:22:48He's talking about our wedding.

00:22:49Hmm?

00:22:50It was a mistake coming here.

00:22:53Emma, wait, wait!

00:22:54My life is a wreck.

00:22:58Global entertainment is going up in flames.

00:23:00How is that my problem?

00:23:02You dug your own grave.

00:23:03Please!

00:23:05I need you to put out a statement saying the whole Dohan thing was your idea.

00:23:08That you broke the bracelet to get attention.

00:23:11Absolutely not!

00:23:12God, I am so sick of taking the blame for your mistakes!

00:23:16You have manipulated me enough.

00:23:18Goodbye, Nathan.

00:23:21Blah, blah, blah.

00:23:22I don't want to hear that.

00:23:23Now, I'm going to have to call you back.

00:23:30Here.

00:23:35Oh, God, what is that?

00:23:37Irish coffee.

00:23:38Without the coffee.

00:23:40What happened?

00:23:42Nathan.

00:23:43Just when I thought that he couldn't sink any lower.

00:23:45I never liked that guy.

00:23:48So what's the plan?

00:23:49Well, Nathan wants me to put out a statement about what really happened at the Bell Am show,

00:23:54so that's exactly what we're going to do.

00:23:58Stop the presses.

00:24:00We have just received a jaw-dropping statement from Emma Miller's manager

00:24:05claiming that global entertainment forced Emma to stand in for Amber Lee on numerous occasions.

00:24:12Then, digitally editing the pictures to make it look like Amber did all the work shamelessly.

00:24:21Emma, you are a clever woman.

00:24:25They also claim that Nathan Davis of Global Entertainment has been having an affair with Amber cheating on his fiancée, Emma.

00:24:35Babe, calm down.

00:24:43Useless.

00:24:44I, uh, I have had it.

00:24:46Nathan.

00:24:48What else do you want?

00:24:49I just, I tried to convince Emma, but I can't control her.

00:24:52What else do you want from me?

00:24:53I can't.

00:24:57Nothing.

00:24:57I, I'm tired of watching you fail.

00:25:03It's my turn now.

00:25:08That night, when Emma returned to the honeymoon suite,

00:25:11she was stunned to find a gorgeous array of flowers from Eric.

00:25:15But little did Emma know, her luck was about to run out.

00:25:23Hello, Emma.

00:25:24Oh, God.

00:25:26Amber, how did you get in here?

00:25:28Oh, this little game has gone on far too long.

00:25:33I'm here to discuss the details of your unconditional surrender.

00:25:37I already told Nathan I'm not going to take the blame for the mess that you two caused.

00:25:41Yes, you are.

00:25:43You will go on live television to admit that you lied about everything.

00:25:48That you took my place and broke that bracelet on purpose.

00:25:53All in a desperate attempt.

00:25:56To kickstart your failing career.

00:25:59And if I refuse?

00:26:01Global Enterprise will sue you and your little manager for breach of contract.

00:26:09Wait, you can't do that.

00:26:11Lisa didn't even do anything wrong.

00:26:13She didn't?

00:26:14Because you both worked for Global and you leaked confidential information.

00:26:20And if that doesn't work, then we'll go for slander.

00:26:25Point being, I'll win.

00:26:28Why?

00:26:30Why are you doing this to me?

00:26:32Isn't it enough that you took my fiancé?

00:26:34Hmm.

00:26:35I guess I just like to take out the trash.

00:26:38You're sick.

00:26:40You know, you two really deserve each other.

00:26:43Oh, you're just upset that you can't keep a man happy.

00:26:48You're pathetic.

00:26:49That's why Nathan chose me to carry his child.

00:26:55And Eric will get bored of you within a few days.

00:26:58And kick you to the curb, too.

00:27:00My garbage.

00:27:02Well, this was fun.

00:27:03I will see you at the press conference.

00:27:05That night, Emma went to her friend Lisa for comfort.

00:27:10Too embarrassed and heartbroken to see Eric.

00:27:15You know I'll stand by you no matter what.

00:27:18You don't have to do this.

00:27:20Yes, I do.

00:27:21I can't have them ruin your career, too.

00:27:28Eric again?

00:27:30I almost didn't know where I went.

00:27:31Why don't you just talk to him?

00:27:35I'm sure he could help.

00:27:37I can't.

00:27:37I can't let him see me like this.

00:27:41I was right.

00:27:42I'm pathetic.

00:27:44And I can't keep expecting him to fight all my battles for him.

00:27:48You know what?

00:27:49You look a mess.

00:27:50Why don't you go get cleaned up and I will make you drink.

00:28:01Hey, listen.

00:28:03We don't know each other, but we both care about Emma.

00:28:07And, well...

00:28:08She needs you.

00:28:12I didn't have money for this being.

00:28:14I know.

00:28:14She's the one, Emma.

00:28:15You showed up.

00:28:17Ha!

00:28:17Oh, how the muddy tables have crumbled.

00:28:20What does that even mean?

00:28:21It means you were...

00:28:23No, I'm the one.

00:28:25Don't hurt yourself, darling.

00:28:29Well, go ahead.

00:28:32Gloat.

00:28:33You know I would, but I'm feeling a little tired.

00:28:37Being pregnant can be such hard work.

00:28:40Not that you would know.

00:28:43Okay, so...

00:28:44How are we gonna do this?

00:28:46I'm gonna need you to stick to the script.

00:28:49Word for word.

00:28:51Fine.

00:28:55Whatever, let's do this.

00:28:56Right this way, yes, sweetie.

00:28:59Emma bravely took the stage, ready to lie and publicly admit wrongdoing in order to save her friend, Lisa.

00:29:06Hello.

00:29:07Hello.

00:29:08My name is Emma Miller.

00:29:10I'm here to admit that...

00:29:12Stop!

00:29:14Emma's heart skipped a beat when she saw her husband, Eric, in the crowd.

00:29:21You don't need to do this, Emma.

00:29:27Yes, you do.

00:29:30It means the world to me that you're here, Eric, but...

00:29:34This is my battle.

00:29:38Chris.

00:29:39I take full responsibility for the Belém fiasco.

00:29:48It was my idea and mine alone to impersonate Amber and steal the spotlight.

00:29:55I'm truly sorry.

00:29:59Just to be clear, none of this was my, uh, global entertainment's fault.

00:30:05It was all Emma.

00:30:08Well, now I'll take any questions.

00:30:09Right here, Ms. Miller, Ms. Miller.

00:30:11Right here, Ms. Miller, right here, right here.

00:30:12Uh, how about, uh, how about you?

00:30:15Is it true that you and billionaire playboy Eric Roberts are an item?

00:30:20Next question.

00:30:20Is it?

00:30:21Stop, stop.

00:30:22Next question.

00:30:23Stop, stop.

00:30:24Does anyone have a good question?

00:30:25Yeah, yeah, right, right, right, right.

00:30:28I'm getting reports that you and Mr. Roberts have been pulled up in a honeymoon suite for

00:30:36days, and that this is all in response to your fiancé Nathan's infidelity.

00:30:43Care to comment?

00:30:45I, um...

00:30:46Okay, no, no, no, no, no, stop it.

00:30:50Stop asking questions about Emma's love life.

00:30:54She sabotaged me, you idiots.

00:30:56How are you not seeing this?

00:30:59She's the villain.

00:31:01This, this is about me, okay?

00:31:04I am the star, and I am...

00:31:06Oh, watch out!

00:31:09What will happen to Amber and her unborn child?

00:31:12Will Emma come out on top, or will Nathan continue to torture her?

00:31:15Can Emma and Eric find happiness?

00:31:21Emma entered the hospital, escorted only by Nathan's assistant.

00:31:25She would have to face Amber without the support of her own team.

00:31:29Gary, Amber's assistant, was guarding the door.

00:31:32So you're here to apologize, he said, looking her up and down with a sneer.

00:31:37You'll just have to wait.

00:31:39Amber's resting.

00:31:40Emma looked Gary straight in the eyes.

00:31:42With a deceptively calm voice, she said,

00:31:46How dare you talk to me like that?

00:31:49Before he could respond, Amber called out from the room.

00:31:53Is that Emma?

00:31:54Come in, Emma!

00:31:55Amber was annoyed with Gary.

00:31:57Right now was not the time to be rude to her.

00:32:00And she still had the power of her family behind her,

00:32:03even if they no longer paid as much attention to her as they had when she was famous.

00:32:07Emma held her head high and walked into the room, not sparing another glance for Gary.

00:32:14Amber, how are you?

00:32:16Nathan told me we're going to film a live broadcast.

00:32:18Isn't that exciting, Emma?

00:32:20I'm so happy to help you show the world how sorry you are.

00:32:24Emma hesitated for a moment.

00:32:26She honestly couldn't believe how shameless Amber was.

00:32:29She was almost as bad as Nathan.

00:32:31They all knew he had asked Emma to fill in at the Bellamy show.

00:32:36But they were all still trying to pretend that it had been Emma's idea.

00:32:41We already prepared this scene, Gary said.

00:32:44In just a moment, the doctor will come in to change Amber's bandages.

00:32:47You'll have the opportunity to show how sorry you are by helping Amber wash her feet.

00:32:53That's enough, Emma snapped.

00:32:55We all know what really happened.

00:32:57Don't you think it's time we stop pretending you're innocent?

00:33:00Emma, what are you talking about?

00:33:03I don't understand, said Amber, opening her eyes wide.

00:33:08I can't believe my ears.

00:33:10If it wasn't for Nathan, I wouldn't put up with this.

00:33:13You know all this is your doing.

00:33:16Emma, it's bad enough you won't apologize to me.

00:33:20Do you have to be mean to me when I've done nothing wrong?

00:33:23Amber really was a good actor,

00:33:25even managing to look hurt as she maintained her innocence.

00:33:30Apologize to you?

00:33:32I'm never going to apologize to you.

00:33:34I have nothing to apologize for, Emma said.

00:33:38Unfortunately, she didn't realize that Gary was recording the whole scene.

00:33:43He immediately posted the video online with an attention-grabbing tagline.

00:33:48Attention-seeking disgraced model declares,

00:33:51I'm never going to apologize to you.

00:33:53In an instant, the wave of hate rose again, ready to come crashing down on Emma.

00:34:00Gary kept recording as Emma left the room.

00:34:03This time, Emma really has gone too far.

00:34:06Amber summoned up tears for the camera.

00:34:09Not only did she refuse to apologize,

00:34:12she even had the nerve to say it was all my fault.

00:34:15And that was when the war between the models really sparked off.

00:34:21Global quickly released a statement,

00:34:23apologizing to the public and implying that they intended to release Emma from their contract with her.

00:34:29No one would have believed that Emma's career could possibly recover from that last devastating blow.

00:34:35But, just as it seemed that things could never get better,

00:34:40a collection of photos surfaced online with a caption,

00:34:44No apology necessary.

00:34:47Emma was wronged.

00:34:48The photos showed Amber and Nathan embracing and kissing passionately in Amber's hospital bed,

00:34:53with Amber wearing a skimpy hospital gown.

00:34:56The text posted with the photos exposed the whole story of Amber and Nathan cheating on Emma for months

00:35:03and manipulating her into filling in for Amber.

00:35:07And just like that, the truth was out.

00:35:10Amber and Nathan's intimate photos spread everywhere,

00:35:14along with the truth that Emma had acted honorably all along.

00:35:19Public opinion swung back 180 again.

00:35:22Emma, who had given up her career for love,

00:35:25had never once tried to make excuses for herself.

00:35:29She was so noble that she'd even taken full responsibility

00:35:32for the Bellamy incident.

00:35:35The tables had turned once again,

00:35:37but Amber did not know it yet.

00:35:39She was in her hospital room,

00:35:41in the middle of yet another interview.

00:35:44Just as she was saying how she actually felt sorry for Emma,

00:35:47the reporter's phone dinged.

00:35:50Miss Lee, she said,

00:35:51How do you explain these photos?

00:35:54Amber's face turned pale.

00:35:56What are those?

00:35:57She asked.

00:35:58These appear to be intimate photos of you and Nathan Davis.

00:36:01Do you want me to go into more detail about what you're doing in the photos?

00:36:06Amber froze.

00:36:07A moment ago, she had everyone's sympathy.

00:36:11Now, everyone knew she had seduced someone else's fiancé.

00:36:15Her mind went blank.

00:36:17How could she possibly get out of this situation?

00:36:19No, it's all fake.

00:36:22This must be part of Emma's plan.

00:36:23Don't film me anymore.

00:36:24Just get out.

00:36:26Go!

00:36:27Miss Lee, the reporter said.

00:36:29Just when I thought I'd seen everything in the entertainment industry,

00:36:33you've still managed to shock me.

00:36:35I'm gonna tell you this.

00:36:36There is still some justice in the world.

00:36:39I'm never going to write another negative word about Emma Miller.

00:36:43Amber began trembling.

00:36:44As soon as the reporters left, she called Nathan.

00:36:47Nathan, have you seen the photos?

00:36:50What should we do?

00:36:51It's just some photos.

00:36:53Don't panic.

00:36:53I'm working on a solution.

00:36:55He responded calmly.

00:36:56But inside, he wasn't calm at all.

00:37:00Not only was Amber's future at risk,

00:37:02the whole of Global was in trouble as well.

00:37:05And perhaps worst of all, he realized,

00:37:08he could lose Emma forever.

00:37:10Emma must be behind all this,

00:37:12Amber said shrilly.

00:37:15Well, maybe if you'd been nicer to her,

00:37:17this wouldn't have happened.

00:37:18Nathan answered angrily and hung up.

00:37:21He tried to call Emma right away,

00:37:23but her phone kept ringing out to voicemail.

00:37:26Emma was holding her phone and watching it ring.

00:37:29She was imagining how anxious Nathan must be,

00:37:32and she decided to let him stew a little longer.

00:37:35Emma, I'm outside the back entrance.

00:37:37She hadn't let Eric's call go to voicemail.

00:37:40The second she heard his deep voice,

00:37:43all her uneasiness fled.

00:37:46As she got in the car,

00:37:47her phone continued to ring and ring,

00:37:50but she ignored it and threw it into the back seat.

00:37:53You're not going to pick up?

00:37:55Eric asked, turning his handsome face to her.

00:37:58You already know the answer, Emma smirked.

00:38:01She planned to make Nathan look for her all night long.

00:38:05Eric stopped talking and focused on the road.

00:38:08Meanwhile, Emma focused on the birthmark on his earlobe.

00:38:12It made him look like he was born with an earring,

00:38:15giving him a slightly evil and dangerous aura.

00:38:18Why are you looking at me like that?

00:38:20He asked.

00:38:21Is there dirt on my face?

00:38:23Emma reached out for Eric's arm.

00:38:26Before we go to our new home,

00:38:27could you come with me somewhere?

00:38:29Of course, but after that,

00:38:32are you interested in finishing what we started last night?

00:38:35Eric's tone was casual,

00:38:38but Emma couldn't hide her nervousness.

00:38:40She wasn't sure she felt as confident

00:38:42as she had the previous night.

00:38:44Eric didn't pressure her, though.

00:38:46He just continued to drive

00:38:48and enjoy the touch of her hand on his arm.

00:38:51At Emma's request,

00:38:52they headed to a park

00:38:53known for its beautiful cherry blossom trees

00:38:55and wonderful restaurant.

00:38:58Emma and Nathan had met at the park frequently,

00:39:00or at least had often made plans to meet there.

00:39:03Finally answering Nathan's call,

00:39:06she said,

00:39:06I'm heading to the cherry blossom park.

00:39:08Meet me under our favorite tree as soon as you can.

00:39:11I'm on my way,

00:39:13Nathan said immediately.

00:39:14Even though he was having an affair with Amber,

00:39:17he had never intended to stop seeing Emma.

00:39:20Where would he find another woman

00:39:22who was so easy to manipulate?

00:39:24He appreciated her loyalty,

00:39:26her family background,

00:39:28and her easygoing nature.

00:39:30He would be foolish to let her go.

00:39:32Emma hung up and looked at Eric.

00:39:34I have no love left for Nathan,

00:39:36she said.

00:39:37Without a word,

00:39:39he patted the seat beside him,

00:39:41gesturing for Emma to sit.

00:39:42The two of them looked out the window

00:39:44at the scenery below.

00:39:46Not long after,

00:39:47an anxious figure appeared

00:39:49beneath her favorite cherry blossom tree.

00:39:51Nathan had arrived.

00:39:54She had stood under that tree so many times,

00:39:57naively waiting all day for him to show up.

00:40:00Most of the time,

00:40:01she had waited in vain.

00:40:03She couldn't believe how badly

00:40:04she let him treat her.

00:40:06He had stood her up,

00:40:08toyed with her,

00:40:09and then betrayed her.

00:40:11But now,

00:40:12it was his turn to suffer.

00:40:14Will this make you feel better?

00:40:16Eric asked as the two of them

00:40:17continued to look at the sad figure below.

00:40:20It's a start.

00:40:21I want him to experience

00:40:23everything he made me go through,

00:40:26the big things

00:40:26and the small ones.

00:40:28With long,

00:40:29powerful fingers,

00:40:31Eric reached for Emma's chin.

00:40:33Turning her face to his,

00:40:35he saw a woman

00:40:36who was delicate on the outside,

00:40:38but had an inner core of steel.

00:40:41I ordered foie gras,

00:40:42she said.

00:40:43The waiter said it was quite good.

00:40:45Eric released her from his grasp

00:40:47and let out a surprise smile.

00:40:49How did you know that I liked that?

00:40:50I have my ways,

00:40:53she said.

00:40:54Emma gestured for the waiter

00:40:55to start serving.

00:40:56Let's eat while we chat.

00:40:58Nathan remained standing along

00:41:00under the tree

00:41:01while Emma and Eric

00:41:02enjoyed their meal

00:41:03and their glances.

00:41:05She might look unassuming,

00:41:07but she isn't weak,

00:41:08he thought.

00:41:10Time passed quickly for the couple

00:41:11as Nathan continued

00:41:12to wait outside.

00:41:14He kept calling Emma,

00:41:16but she had turned her phone off.

00:41:18Finally,

00:41:18the two finished their meal.

00:41:20Eric took a last glance

00:41:22down at Nathan and asked,

00:41:24Do you want to continue

00:41:25watching him wait?

00:41:26No.

00:41:27I want you to help me

00:41:28move into your house.

00:41:30Eric paid the bill,

00:41:32escorted Emma out

00:41:33through the side door

00:41:34and drove her to her home.

00:41:36She'd asked for five minutes

00:41:37alone in the house

00:41:38to remove all traces

00:41:40of her relationship

00:41:41with Nathan.

00:41:42To be honest,

00:41:43there wasn't much.

00:41:44Nathan had never left

00:41:45any of his belongings there.

00:41:47While she packed,

00:41:49Eric looked around.

00:41:50He found a huge photo

00:41:51in the living room

00:41:52of Emma receiving

00:41:53a modeling trophy.

00:41:54If she hadn't retreated

00:41:56from the industry,

00:41:57he thought,

00:41:57she would have been

00:41:58an international superstar

00:42:00by now.

00:42:01A few minutes later,

00:42:02she emerged from her bedroom

00:42:04with a teddy bear

00:42:05and a small bag.

00:42:06I'm ready.

00:42:08You don't want anything else?

00:42:10No.

00:42:10Let's leave the memories behind.

00:42:12Eric took the bag

00:42:14and the teddy bear

00:42:14and placed them on the sofa.

00:42:16He said,

00:42:17let's leave the rest

00:42:18for when we get home.

00:42:20But for now,

00:42:21has my kiss helped you

00:42:22to make some better

00:42:23final memories here?

00:42:25Back at the park,

00:42:26Nathan waited for four hours.

00:42:29He had planned to stay all night

00:42:31if that's what it took,

00:42:32but then Amber called.

00:42:34Nathan, where are you?

00:42:36I'm waiting outside your house.

00:42:37I need you.

00:42:38Why are those photos of us

00:42:40still all over the web?

00:42:41I'm going to be destroyed.

00:42:43Nathan rushed home.

00:42:45Seeing Amber standing pitifully

00:42:47on one foot outside his door,

00:42:49he couldn't help but run to her.

00:42:51I won't let you be destroyed

00:42:53and I won't let Global be destroyed.

00:42:55Nathan, you're all I have.

00:42:58Don't leave me and the baby.

00:43:00Nathan tried his best

00:43:01to comfort and reassure her.

00:43:03That night,

00:43:04he ordered his staff

00:43:05to release a statement

00:43:06saying that the pictures

00:43:08of the two of them

00:43:08that had been posted

00:43:09earlier in the day

00:43:11were misleading.

00:43:11The truth,

00:43:13so the statement said,

00:43:14was that Amber had been

00:43:15standing on one foot

00:43:17due to her injury

00:43:18and had lost her balance.

00:43:19She had fallen

00:43:20into Nathan's arms

00:43:22and they had landed

00:43:23on the bed together.

00:43:25After Global's PR team

00:43:26released their statement,

00:43:28Nathan paid a few

00:43:29social influencers

00:43:30to post glowing reviews

00:43:32of his company

00:43:33and of Amber.

00:43:35Over the next three days,

00:43:36he contacted everyone

00:43:38he could think of

00:43:38to clean up Amber's image

00:43:40and to cast blame

00:43:41on Emma.

00:43:43He could only hope

00:43:44that the public

00:43:44would soon forget

00:43:45his latest scandal

00:43:47and Amber would be able

00:43:48to return to work.

00:43:50His goal was to position Amber

00:43:51to win the Top 10 Model Award

00:43:54and then announce

00:43:55she would be leaving

00:43:56the country to study.

00:43:57She could have her child

00:43:58away from the prying eyes

00:44:00of the public.

00:44:01Nathan really was

00:44:02infatuated with Amber,

00:44:04so he was willing

00:44:05to go to great lengths

00:44:06to make this plan work.

00:44:08And once she was acknowledged

00:44:09as a top model,

00:44:11she would be very profitable

00:44:12for global entertainment.

00:44:15Emma's manager read

00:44:16through the latest

00:44:17global press release

00:44:18with a shake of her head.

00:44:19She'd come over

00:44:20to Emma's apartment

00:44:21to plan their next move,

00:44:23but was surprised

00:44:24to find that Emma

00:44:25wasn't home.

00:44:27Feeling confused,

00:44:28she called Emma.

00:44:29Where are you?

00:44:31Emma had just started

00:44:32filling the tub

00:44:33at Eric's house.

00:44:34She laughed and said,

00:44:35I haven't had the chance

00:44:37to tell you.

00:44:38I moved.

00:44:39Where did you move to?

00:44:41Does Nathan know?

00:44:42Emma turned around

00:44:43and looked at Eric,

00:44:44who had just entered

00:44:45the bathroom.

00:44:46Not realizing

00:44:47she was on the phone,

00:44:48he said in that

00:44:49deep voice of his,

00:44:51Is it bath time yet?

00:44:53On the other side

00:44:54of the line,

00:44:55Lisa heard the voice

00:44:56and asked in disbelief,

00:44:58Who are you with?

00:44:59Are you safe?

00:45:00Is someone taking advantage

00:45:01of your situation?

00:45:03Beginning to sound frantic,

00:45:04she said,

00:45:06You don't need to rely

00:45:06on some strange man

00:45:08to take care of you.

00:45:09Tell me where you are

00:45:10and I'll come get you

00:45:10right now.

00:45:11Emma didn't know

00:45:12what to say.

00:45:13She put her phone

00:45:14on mute and said,

00:45:15My manager seems

00:45:16to think I need help.

00:45:18I'd like to talk

00:45:18with her in person

00:45:19and explain

00:45:20what's going on.

00:45:22Do you trust her completely?

00:45:24Eric had already found out

00:45:26quite a lot about Lisa.

00:45:27He knew that she was

00:45:28passionate and loyal,

00:45:30but scatterbrained at times.

00:45:32Of course.

00:45:33Then let me send someone

00:45:35to pick her up

00:45:36and bring her here.

00:45:37Emma thought about it carefully

00:45:38and then told Lisa

00:45:40she would send a car for her.

00:45:42Lisa paced back and forth

00:45:43while she waited.

00:45:45What on earth

00:45:46was going on?

00:45:47Had Emma willingly

00:45:48gone off

00:45:49with some other man?

00:45:50Was it someone

00:45:51in the entertainment industry?

00:45:53Didn't she know

00:45:53how dangerous that was?

00:45:56They all wanted

00:45:57the same thing,

00:45:58one night of fun

00:45:59to be forgotten

00:46:00about the next day.

00:46:02Lisa was fuming

00:46:03by the time Luke,

00:46:04Eric's assistant,

00:46:05arrived.

00:46:06Please get in the car.

00:46:07I'm here to take you

00:46:08to see Emma.

00:46:09If anything has happened

00:46:10to Emma,

00:46:11I will do some serious

00:46:12physical harm

00:46:13to you and your boss,

00:46:15she threatened.

00:46:15Let's not talk about

00:46:17who's going to hurt who.

00:46:18Just get in the car.

00:46:20Lisa glared at Luke

00:46:22as she got in the car

00:46:23and kept glaring

00:46:24throughout the ride,

00:46:25keeping up a steady stream

00:46:27of threats

00:46:27about what would happen

00:46:29if even one hair

00:46:30on Emma's head

00:46:31had been harmed.

00:46:32But as the car

00:46:33approached one of the

00:46:34most expensive streets

00:46:36in Tribeca,

00:46:37Lisa grew silent

00:46:38in shock.

00:46:40Just who the hell

00:46:41is your boss?

00:46:43She said weakly.

00:46:44You'll find out

00:46:45once you get inside,

00:46:46he replied

00:46:47in an annoyed tone.

00:46:49He could have a bit

00:46:49of a temper too.

00:46:51Lisa started to worry.

00:46:53She'd have to be

00:46:53very careful.

00:46:55Whoever lived there

00:46:56probably had a lot of power

00:46:57to go along

00:46:58with their money.

00:46:59Luke escorted Lisa

00:47:00out of the car

00:47:01and let her

00:47:02into the building.

00:47:03She remained quiet

00:47:04as the elevator

00:47:05opened up

00:47:06to a palatial living room

00:47:07where Emma was

00:47:08waiting on the sofa.

00:47:10Even without any makeup,

00:47:12she was stunning,

00:47:13as was the view

00:47:14of Manhattan

00:47:14out the window

00:47:15behind her.

00:47:16Emma,

00:47:17what's going on?

00:47:18You don't really

00:47:19live here,

00:47:20do you?

00:47:21Lisa,

00:47:21there's something

00:47:22I need to tell you,

00:47:23but I don't want

00:47:24you to be upset.

00:47:25Emma motioned Lisa

00:47:26to sit on the sofa

00:47:27next to her.

00:47:28Tell me,

00:47:29do you have

00:47:30a new boyfriend?

00:47:31No,

00:47:32Emma shook her head,

00:47:33holding back a smile.

00:47:35I'm married.

00:47:36After a long pause,

00:47:38Lisa burst out,

00:47:40what did you say?

00:47:41You're married?

00:47:42Who are you married to?

00:47:43What are you talking about?

00:47:46Interrupting her barrage

00:47:47of questions,

00:47:48Eric came into the room.

00:47:50Hello, Lisa,

00:47:51he said.

00:47:52To her surprise,

00:47:53he walked over to Emma,

00:47:54leaned over affectionately,

00:47:56and whispered gently

00:47:57into her ear.

00:47:58I know,

00:47:59she responded.

00:48:00I'll only be about

00:48:00a half an hour.

00:48:02See you later,

00:48:02Lisa,

00:48:03he said,

00:48:03and headed back

00:48:04out of the room.

00:48:05Lisa froze

00:48:06in disbelief.

00:48:08Emma,

00:48:08pinch me.

00:48:09I want to know

00:48:10if I'm dreaming.

00:48:11Are you married

00:48:12to Eric Roberts,

00:48:13the CEO of Kaleidoscope?

00:48:15Um,

00:48:16yeah.

00:48:17For real?

00:48:18Yes,

00:48:19you're not hallucinating.

00:48:21It's really him,

00:48:22my new husband,

00:48:23Emma said.

00:48:24Lisa's mood changed

00:48:25from distress

00:48:26to excitement.

00:48:28Emma,

00:48:28this is such a great surprise.

00:48:30I can't believe it.

00:48:31I'm cured.

00:48:33You're cured?

00:48:34Yes,

00:48:34I'm cured of my hatred

00:48:35for your mystery,

00:48:37man.

00:48:37You totally made

00:48:38the right decision.

00:48:39If you're gonna get married

00:48:40to someone,

00:48:41it shouldn't be

00:48:42to that piece of trash Nathan.

00:48:44Ooh,

00:48:44when he finds out,

00:48:46God,

00:48:47that'll be so satisfying.

00:48:49I'm not planning

00:48:50to announce my relationship

00:48:51with Eric just yet,

00:48:53Emma explained calmly

00:48:55and confidently.

00:48:56With his help,

00:48:57I know my career

00:48:58could advance

00:48:59by leaps and bounds.

00:49:01But I don't want anyone

00:49:02to say that my success

00:49:03is due to being his wife.

00:49:05Three years ago,

00:49:06I became a top model

00:49:07in New York

00:49:08through my own hard work.

00:49:10I'm confident

00:49:11I can do it again.

00:49:12If you're still willing

00:49:13to help me,

00:49:14then let's do this together.

00:49:16But if you want to move on,

00:49:17I won't pressure you.

00:49:19I'll even help you

00:49:20find another position

00:49:21at a better company.

00:49:22Of course,

00:49:23I'll stand by your side.

00:49:25I want to become

00:49:25the manager

00:49:26of the next

00:49:27international supermodel,

00:49:29Lisa replied enthusiastically.

00:49:31But are you planning

00:49:32to stay at Global Entertainment?

00:49:34What do you think?

00:49:36Emma gave Lisa a look,

00:49:38letting her figure out

00:49:39the answer herself.

00:49:41Nathan has used me

00:49:42over and over,

00:49:43and I plan to make him pay.

00:49:46Lisa burst out laughing

00:49:47as she leaned into Emma.

00:49:49Emma,

00:49:50I never knew

00:49:51you could be so sneaky.

00:49:53So what's the next move?

00:49:54Should we release the video?

00:49:56No,

00:49:57let's secure

00:49:57the spokesperson deal first.

00:49:59To be precise,

00:50:01let's take

00:50:01what should have been mine

00:50:02right out of Amber's hands.

00:50:04Afterwards,

00:50:05when Amber's fans

00:50:06are complaining,

00:50:07then we'll release the video.

00:50:09In the meantime,

00:50:10can you help edit

00:50:11the clips from

00:50:11The Bella Me Show

00:50:12and post them online?

00:50:14Of course,

00:50:15leave it to me.

00:50:16Lisa was impressed

00:50:17with the changes

00:50:18she was seeing in Emma.

00:50:20Who knew

00:50:20she could be this powerful?

00:50:22The next morning,

00:50:23the war between

00:50:24the two models

00:50:25was already old news,

00:50:27and the rumors

00:50:27about Nathan and Amber

00:50:28had been buried

00:50:29under Global's

00:50:30newest press releases.

00:50:32Interestingly,

00:50:33Emma's straightforward

00:50:34response to the media

00:50:36had an unexpected benefit.

00:50:38She gained

00:50:39a huge number

00:50:40of new fans

00:50:41who were now searching online

00:50:42for her old appearances

00:50:44and photos.

00:50:45Amber and Nathan

00:50:46had failed to notice

00:50:47that Emma's popularity

00:50:49was on the rise.

00:50:51Her performance

00:50:51with the Crown star

00:50:53during The Bella Me Show

00:50:54had been spectacular.

00:50:56Her new fans felt

00:50:57that she should get

00:50:58the recognition

00:50:59she deserved,

00:51:00so they shared

00:51:01her videos online

00:51:02and bombarded

00:51:03Bella Me with fan mail.

00:51:05Based on the fans' reactions,

00:51:07Bella Me's founder,

00:51:09Julius Taylor,

00:51:09began watching the videos

00:51:11of Emma's performance.

00:51:13He was amazed

00:51:14by her beauty

00:51:15and suddenly realized

00:51:16that the model

00:51:17he'd been so angry with

00:51:19was the perfect match

00:51:20for his jewelry.

00:51:22It was like

00:51:22they were made

00:51:23for each other.

00:51:25Now that he had

00:51:25the time to calm down,

00:51:27he realized

00:51:28that Emma's elegance

00:51:29and professionalism

00:51:31were infinitely better

00:51:32for representing

00:51:33the Crown star

00:51:34than Amber

00:51:35had ever been.

00:51:37Ironically,

00:51:38because Emma

00:51:38had admitted wrongdoing,

00:51:40Julius even felt

00:51:41he could now trust her.

00:51:43He called a meeting

00:51:44at Bella Me

00:51:45to discuss changing

00:51:46the spokesperson.

00:51:48After watching the videos,

00:51:49the group reached

00:51:50the only possible conclusion.

00:51:52Emma had to be

00:51:54the next spokesperson.

00:51:55Julius called

00:51:56the head

00:51:57of Global Entertainment.

00:51:58Mr. Taylor,

00:52:00Nathan said

00:52:00as he answered the phone.

00:52:02Amber has almost

00:52:02completely recovered

00:52:04from her injuries

00:52:04and should be able

00:52:05to represent

00:52:06your company

00:52:07very soon.

00:52:08I'm not calling

00:52:09about that,

00:52:10Mr. Davis.

00:52:11Bella Me

00:52:11has decided

00:52:12to change

00:52:13spokespersons.

00:52:14We would like

00:52:14Emma to step

00:52:15in for Amber,

00:52:16he said.

00:52:17Nathan didn't know

00:52:18how to react.

00:52:20Mr. Taylor,

00:52:21I don't think

00:52:22that's right.

00:52:23We haven't signed

00:52:24the contract yet.

00:52:25If you're not willing

00:52:26to have Emma

00:52:26serve as the spokesperson,

00:52:28we would prefer

00:52:28to cancel

00:52:29this collaboration

00:52:30and work

00:52:30with another company.

00:52:32But we have

00:52:33other models,

00:52:34ones that are

00:52:34more famous

00:52:35than Amber.

00:52:36We only want Emma.

00:52:38Taylor had made

00:52:39up his mind,

00:52:40leaving Nathan

00:52:40with no choice.

00:52:42This deal was supposed

00:52:43to have cleared

00:52:44Amber's path

00:52:45to the Top 10

00:52:45Model Award.

00:52:47Telling her

00:52:47she was no longer

00:52:48the spokesperson

00:52:49was going to be tricky.

00:52:51The news quickly

00:52:52spread to Lisa,

00:52:53who called Emma

00:52:54right away.

00:52:55Emma, Emma,

00:52:56you got the deal!

00:52:58She yelled

00:52:58over the phone.

00:53:00Don't get ahead

00:53:00of yourself, Lisa.

00:53:02Amber isn't going

00:53:03to just let

00:53:03this deal slip away.

00:53:05News of Bellamy's

00:53:06request to change

00:53:07spokespersons

00:53:08quickly spread

00:53:09throughout the

00:53:10entertainment industry.

00:53:11Eric heard the news

00:53:12and realized

00:53:13that Emma had

00:53:14successfully taken

00:53:15back her position

00:53:16from Amber.

00:53:17It would barely

00:53:18have registered

00:53:19on the radar

00:53:20as an impressive

00:53:20contract for any

00:53:22of his models.

00:53:23But he knew

00:53:24it was a huge deal

00:53:25for Emma.

00:53:26He called her

00:53:27immediately.

00:53:28You did well.

00:53:29I'm very impressed.

00:53:31She laughed

00:53:32and responded,

00:53:33Getting that

00:53:34compliment from you

00:53:35makes me happier

00:53:36than anything else.

00:53:38I'm looking forward

00:53:39to seeing what

00:53:40you'll do next,

00:53:41he said.

00:53:42She simply responded,

00:53:44So am I.

00:53:45But for now,

00:53:46she needed to return

00:53:47to Global

00:53:48and face Amber.

00:53:50Amber was fast asleep

00:53:52at Nathan's home,

00:53:53not yet aware

00:53:54of Bellamy's decision.

00:53:56She'd headed straight

00:53:56to his place

00:53:57from the hospital

00:53:58and demanded

00:53:59his undivided attention

00:54:00all night,

00:54:01refusing to let him

00:54:03call Emma.

00:54:04She was determined

00:54:05not to lose anything

00:54:06that was hers

00:54:07and especially

00:54:08not to Emma,

00:54:09who always seemed

00:54:10to be waiting

00:54:11just around the corner.

00:54:12She was awoken

00:54:13by her assistant

00:54:14banging on the door.

00:54:16Finally,

00:54:17she reluctantly

00:54:18rolled out

00:54:18of the comfortable bed,

00:54:20pulled a dressing gown

00:54:21around her

00:54:22and opened the door

00:54:22just a crack.

00:54:24Gary was impatient

00:54:25and flustered.

00:54:26Without speaking,

00:54:27he shoved the door

00:54:28further open

00:54:29with his elbow

00:54:30and held out his phone

00:54:31to show her the screen,

00:54:33already open

00:54:34to the entertainment news.

00:54:36Her first reaction

00:54:37was disbelief.

00:54:39What the hell is this?

00:54:40Bellamy already chose me.

00:54:42They can't go back

00:54:43on it now.

00:54:44Amber,

00:54:45this has already happened.

00:54:47Bellamy called Nathan

00:54:48and personally told him

00:54:49to make Emma

00:54:50the spokesperson

00:54:50or they would find

00:54:52another company.

00:54:53Gary jabbed his finger

00:54:55at the phone.

00:54:56What did Emma do?

00:54:57How did she make this happen?

00:54:59We're going to Global

00:55:00to talk to Nathan

00:55:01in person,

00:55:02Amber said.

00:55:03She knew that

00:55:04if she just called him,

00:55:05he would say

00:55:05he was too busy

00:55:06to talk to her.

00:55:08Her best option

00:55:08was just to go down

00:55:10to the office

00:55:10and force him

00:55:11to deal with her

00:55:12face to face.

00:55:14Nathan was sitting

00:55:15in his office,

00:55:16feeling wrung out.

00:55:18Bellamy were adamant

00:55:19about signing Emma

00:55:20instead of Amber

00:55:21and he couldn't lose

00:55:23the deal,

00:55:23but he knew

00:55:24how upset

00:55:25Amber would be.

00:55:26While he was still

00:55:27trying to figure out

00:55:28what he could say

00:55:29to Amber,

00:55:30she showed up

00:55:30at his office

00:55:31in the wheelchair

00:55:32the hospital had provided

00:55:33for her recovery.

00:55:35Nathan,

00:55:36what's going on?

00:55:37How could my deal

00:55:37be going to Emma

00:55:38instead?

00:55:40He bent down awkwardly

00:55:41to hug her.

00:55:43Amber,

00:55:43it's beyond my control

00:55:44but I promise

00:55:46I'll help you secure

00:55:47an even better deal.

00:55:49She angrily pushed him away.

00:55:51I don't want another deal.

00:55:53You know as well as I do

00:55:55that Julius Taylor's sister

00:55:56is on the judging panel

00:55:58for the top 10 model awards.

00:56:00This deal was really

00:56:01important to me.

00:56:03How could you just

00:56:03hand it over to Emma?

00:56:05She's already stolen

00:56:06you from me.

00:56:07Isn't that enough?

00:56:09Why is she trying

00:56:09to take everything

00:56:10from me like this?

00:56:12If I lose this deal,

00:56:13I'm not going through

00:56:14with your plan

00:56:15to leave the country

00:56:16to have our child

00:56:17and I won't stay

00:56:18a global either.

00:56:19Don't say that, Amber.

00:56:21We need to stick

00:56:22with what we've planned.

00:56:23You know I'm on your side.

00:56:25Why does she need

00:56:26this deal anyway?

00:56:28As far as she knows,

00:56:29she's about to marry you.

00:56:31I bet you could get her

00:56:32to change your mind

00:56:32if you really tried.

00:56:35Emma's given in

00:56:35to pressure easily

00:56:36enough in the past.

00:56:38Maybe I could convince her

00:56:39to give up the deal

00:56:40with Bella Mee,

00:56:41Nathan thought.

00:56:43I'll speak to her.

00:56:44Don't cry, honey.

00:56:45It'll all be okay.

00:56:47Amber reached out

00:56:48for Nathan, sobbing.

00:56:50Just then,

00:56:51Emma knocked on the door.

00:56:53Amber immediately

00:56:53stopped crying

00:56:54and pulled away

00:56:55from Nathan

00:56:56with a fierce,

00:56:57bitter expression

00:56:58on her face.

00:56:59Emma, where were you?

00:57:01Don't you know

00:57:02I was looking for you

00:57:03all night?

00:57:03He asked.

00:57:05Emma glanced at him

00:57:06and then at Amber

00:57:07as Nathan continued.

00:57:08It was all just

00:57:09a misunderstanding

00:57:10between Amber and me

00:57:11and I've already released

00:57:12a statement

00:57:13to clear it up.

00:57:14You don't need

00:57:15to make such a fuss.

00:57:17Emma knew very well

00:57:18what he meant

00:57:19by looking for her

00:57:20all night.

00:57:21He had obviously

00:57:22searched so hard

00:57:23he'd ended up

00:57:24searching in his bed

00:57:25with Amber.

00:57:27Otherwise,

00:57:27he would have noticed

00:57:28that she was no longer

00:57:29living at her old place.

00:57:31Calmly,

00:57:32she met his eyes

00:57:33and said,

00:57:34Well,

00:57:35it's too bad

00:57:36that the problem

00:57:36between me and Amber

00:57:37isn't just a misunderstanding.

00:57:40I've helped out

00:57:41covering for her

00:57:42so many times

00:57:43in the past few years,

00:57:44but she turned around

00:57:45and stabbed me

00:57:46in the back

00:57:47the first chance

00:57:48she got.

00:57:49Do you both really think

00:57:50I'm that easy

00:57:51to push around?

00:57:52Emma,

00:57:53Amber was worried

00:57:54and stressed

00:57:55with all the media attention.

00:57:56She did the only thing

00:57:58she thought she could.

00:57:59Emma raised her eyebrows

00:58:00skeptically,

00:58:02but Nathan didn't notice

00:58:03and carried on.

00:58:05Look,

00:58:05that's not the issue

00:58:06right now.

00:58:07That incident

00:58:08is all over.

00:58:09It's water under the bridge.

00:58:10Please,

00:58:11let's forget about it.

00:58:13I have something else

00:58:14I want to talk to you about.

00:58:16I want you to turn down

00:58:17the spokesperson deal

00:58:18with Bellamy.

00:58:19Getting that deal

00:58:20is very important to Amber.

00:58:22You've already stepped away

00:58:23from the spotlight,

00:58:24so you don't need

00:58:25this kind of exposure.

00:58:27He spoke straightforwardly,

00:58:28as if it was already

00:58:29a done deal

00:58:30that Emma would agree.

00:58:32That contract

00:58:32was always meant

00:58:34to be mine,

00:58:35Amber added.

00:58:36Bellamy only suggested you

00:58:38because of my injuries,

00:58:39but as you can see,

00:58:40I'm almost recovered.

00:58:42And besides,

00:58:42you haven't done a show

00:58:43for so long.

00:58:44You probably can't even

00:58:45walk a runway anymore.

00:58:47You don't want to look

00:58:48like some stand-in,

00:58:49do you?

00:58:50That's a bit ironic,

00:58:52you asking that question

00:58:53of me,

00:58:54don't you think?

00:58:55Emma responded coldly.

00:58:57Emma,

00:58:58what's gotten into you?

00:58:59Nathan snapped.

00:59:00If you love me,

00:59:01you won't take this deal.

00:59:03Global needs Amber

00:59:04to win the top 10 model

00:59:06competition

00:59:06as a reputation boost.

00:59:08And the best way

00:59:09for her to win

00:59:10is by signing this deal

00:59:11with Bellamy.

00:59:13Amber laughed to herself.

00:59:14She was confident

00:59:15Emma would do anything

00:59:16for Nathan,

00:59:17even if it meant

00:59:18giving up such

00:59:19a lucrative deal.

00:59:20Nathan,

00:59:21quick,

00:59:21give Bellamy a call,

00:59:23she said.

00:59:23Let them know

00:59:24Emma's too busy

00:59:25planning her wedding

00:59:26and can't take on

00:59:27any new jobs.

00:59:29Nathan nodded,

00:59:30reaching for the phone.

00:59:31But just as he picked it up,

00:59:33Emma stopped him.

00:59:34You're too late.

00:59:35I've already accepted

00:59:36the offer.

00:59:37Emma!

00:59:38Nathan exclaimed in shock.

00:59:40She had never pushed back

00:59:42against any of his decisions before.

00:59:45I spoke to Mr. Taylor

00:59:46this morning,

00:59:47she continued.

00:59:48We're both really looking forward

00:59:49to working together.

00:59:51Emma,

00:59:51I'm the president

00:59:52of Global Entertainment.

00:59:54I make the decisions,

00:59:56not you.

00:59:57Nathan was furious.

00:59:59Why are you insisting

01:00:01on taking Amber's deal?

01:00:03You think this was my idea?

01:00:05Bellamy asked for me

01:00:06and said they would

01:00:07take their business elsewhere

01:00:08unless I stepped up.

01:00:10I took the deal

01:00:11for your sake

01:00:12so Global wouldn't be

01:00:13left with nothing.

01:00:15You know,

01:00:15I hadn't believed

01:00:16the rumors

01:00:17about you and Amber.

01:00:18But if you'd rather

01:00:19take a loss like that

01:00:20than have me

01:00:21be the spokesperson,

01:00:22then maybe the two of you

01:00:23do have something

01:00:24going on after all.

01:00:26Of course not,

01:00:27he denied hastily.

01:00:29I can't believe

01:00:29you'd say such a thing.

01:00:31It's just that

01:00:32since we're going

01:00:32to get married

01:00:33and start a family

01:00:34soon,

01:00:35I figured you'd rather

01:00:36not take on any

01:00:37extra professional

01:00:38responsibilities.

01:00:40But Emma wasn't done.

01:00:42Oh,

01:00:42so would you like

01:00:43to try explaining

01:00:44that to Julius Taylor?

01:00:46And what do you mean

01:00:47by saying that

01:00:47I took the deal

01:00:49from Amber?

01:00:50As far as I can tell,

01:00:51she's done all the taking.

01:00:53She's been doing it

01:00:54for years.

01:00:55Amber was getting

01:00:56angry now as well,

01:00:58resenting the accusations

01:00:59and the suggestions

01:01:00that she hadn't

01:01:01earned her own success.

01:01:03Emma,

01:01:04you're the one

01:01:05who stepped out

01:01:05of the limelight.

01:01:06I didn't take

01:01:07anything from you.

01:01:08What did you think

01:01:09was going to happen

01:01:10to your work?

01:01:11That we'd just let it

01:01:12go to another company?

01:01:13Fine,

01:01:14Emma said.

01:01:15You're right.

01:01:16If you can persuade

01:01:17Mr. Taylor to change

01:01:18his mind,

01:01:18I'll step down.

01:01:20Could Emma really

01:01:21be giving in?

01:01:23Nathan was now

01:01:24stuck in a difficult

01:01:25position.

01:01:26Emma was obviously

01:01:27still angry,

01:01:28or else she wouldn't

01:01:29have had the nerve

01:01:30to defy him

01:01:30like she never

01:01:31had before.

01:01:32And he'd promised

01:01:33Amber that Emma

01:01:34would give her back

01:01:35the deal.

01:01:36But ultimately,

01:01:37it was clear

01:01:38that Bellamy would

01:01:39take their contract

01:01:40somewhere else

01:01:41if they didn't

01:01:42get Emma.

01:01:42In the end,

01:01:43he had to protect

01:01:44the bottom line.

01:01:46Enough.

01:01:47Since Bellamy

01:01:48has requested Emma

01:01:49and Emma has already

01:01:50agreed,

01:01:51we're going with her.

01:01:52But Nathan,

01:01:54Amber whined.

01:01:55I made my decision,

01:01:56he snapped.

01:01:57It's time for both

01:01:58of you to accept

01:01:59it and leave.

01:02:01Emma,

01:02:01ask Lisa to come

01:02:02in when you go.

01:02:03It was clear that,

01:02:05even though he was

01:02:06left with no choice,

01:02:07he resented being

01:02:08pushed into the decision.

01:02:10Emma had a pretty

01:02:11good idea what

01:02:12Nathan was thinking,

01:02:13but if he expected

01:02:14her to feel bad

01:02:15about hurting his

01:02:16feelings,

01:02:16he was dreaming.

01:02:18Amber followed

01:02:19Emma out of the office,

01:02:21her anger continuing

01:02:22to boil up inside her.

01:02:24But she comforted

01:02:25herself that,

01:02:26even if Emma

01:02:26appeared to be

01:02:27making a comeback

01:02:28right now,

01:02:29she wasn't that

01:02:29popular yet.

01:02:31Amber planned to do

01:02:32everything she could

01:02:33to crush her.

01:02:35As soon as she saw

01:02:36her assistant,

01:02:36Gary,

01:02:37who was waiting

01:02:37in the lobby,

01:02:38she said,

01:02:39I want you to take

01:02:40a few photos of me

01:02:41working hard to recover

01:02:42and post them online.

01:02:44Let's stir up

01:02:45my fans' sympathy

01:02:46and get them to complain

01:02:47that Emma has stolen

01:02:48my deal.

01:02:49If I can't have it,

01:02:50I'm not going to

01:02:51let her take it.

01:02:52Don't you worry,

01:02:53Gary said.

01:02:54I know exactly

01:02:55what to do.

01:02:57Emma found Lisa

01:02:58waiting in her office

01:02:59and said,

01:03:00Nathan wants to

01:03:00talk to you.

01:03:01Don't be too nervous.

01:03:03Nervous?

01:03:03Are you kidding me?

01:03:05Who do you think

01:03:05I am?

01:03:06Lisa rolled her eyes.

01:03:08It's not my first day

01:03:09on the job,

01:03:09you know.

01:03:10If he thinks I'm just

01:03:11some pushover

01:03:12he can tear down,

01:03:13he's in for a shock.

01:03:15She headed into

01:03:16Nathan's office,

01:03:17a fierce expression

01:03:18on her face.

01:03:19She was not going

01:03:20to hold back.

01:03:22Nathan thrust a pile

01:03:23of papers in front

01:03:23of Lisa.

01:03:24I'm terminating

01:03:25your agreement

01:03:26with Global.

01:03:27You need to leave

01:03:27the premises.

01:03:28And you should

01:03:29make preparations

01:03:29to compensate us

01:03:30for breach of contract.

01:03:32Leave?

01:03:33Lisa laughed.

01:03:34Nathan,

01:03:35you must have

01:03:35a bad memory.

01:03:36When I first signed

01:03:37my contract,

01:03:38my salary was clearly

01:03:39stated alongside

01:03:40Emma's appearance fees.

01:03:42With all the work

01:03:43you've let Amber

01:03:44steal from her,

01:03:45I haven't once

01:03:46gotten paid as much

01:03:47as my contract stipulates.

01:03:49And the posts I made

01:03:50were all in Emma's

01:03:51best interests.

01:03:52Ultimately benefiting

01:03:53the company.

01:03:54I did nothing wrong.

01:03:56If anyone should be

01:03:57worrying about breach

01:03:58of contract,

01:03:59it's you.

01:04:00You.

01:04:01Nathan couldn't

01:04:02believe his ears.

01:04:04If you weren't afraid

01:04:05of making Global's

01:04:06situation worse,

01:04:07we can always take

01:04:08this to court.

01:04:09I'm fine with that.

01:04:10But you might want

01:04:11to think about

01:04:11the rest of the industry

01:04:12losing trust in your brand.

01:04:15She paused

01:04:16to let her words

01:04:17sink in.

01:04:18Look, Nathan,

01:04:19I obviously won't

01:04:21be staying,

01:04:21but I don't want

01:04:22to leave on bad terms.

01:04:23Let's make this

01:04:24as painless as possible.

01:04:26What do you want?

01:04:28He muttered

01:04:29through gritted teeth.

01:04:30I'll agree to leave

01:04:31Global without a fuss

01:04:32and you'll let

01:04:33all of this drop.

01:04:34You won't come after me

01:04:35for any kind of compensation

01:04:37and from now on,

01:04:38we don't owe each other

01:04:39anything.

01:04:40He glared at her

01:04:41angrily,

01:04:42but recognized

01:04:43that this was

01:04:44the only option

01:04:44he had left.

01:04:46Fine.

01:04:46Just leave.

01:04:47I don't want

01:04:48to see you again.

01:04:50Nathan,

01:04:51let me give you

01:04:51a warning.

01:04:52There is no wall

01:04:54thick enough

01:04:54to block out

01:04:55what you've got

01:04:56coming to you.

01:04:57You'll be paying

01:04:57for the way

01:04:58you treated Emma

01:04:58for a very long time.

01:05:01Nathan glared at her

01:05:02as she walked

01:05:03out of the door

01:05:03with the now

01:05:04worthless paperwork

01:05:05he'd based

01:05:06his whole plan on.

01:05:07He grabbed his desk

01:05:09and flipped it over,

01:05:10scattering the contents

01:05:11all over the floor.

01:05:13Instead of leaving

01:05:14the building,

01:05:15Lisa went back

01:05:16to Emma's office,

01:05:17where the two of them

01:05:18celebrated the success

01:05:19of this part of the plan

01:05:20and set to work

01:05:22plotting their next steps.

01:05:24When Nathan left

01:05:24his office

01:05:25to take a break,

01:05:26they ran straight

01:05:27into each other.

01:05:28Why are you still here?

01:05:30He asked.

01:05:31Emma froze for a moment.

01:05:33Then she replied,

01:05:34I just hired Lisa.

01:05:36Emma,

01:05:36what are you talking about?

01:05:37It's Global's call

01:05:39who will be managing you,

01:05:40not yours.

01:05:41She was driving him crazy.

01:05:44Oh,

01:05:44I didn't hire Lisa

01:05:45to be my manager.

01:05:46I hired her

01:05:47to be my assistant.

01:05:48It's in my contract

01:05:49that I can hire

01:05:50my own assistant,

01:05:51isn't it?

01:05:52Emma smiled sweetly.

01:05:54Lisa has looked after me

01:05:55so well for so long.

01:05:57She's the only person

01:05:58I trust to understand

01:05:59what I need

01:06:00to do a good job.

01:06:02Nathan pulled her aside,

01:06:03out of Lisa's earshot.

01:06:05Emma,

01:06:05what's wrong with you?

01:06:07Are you doing this

01:06:08just to spite me?

01:06:10Not everything

01:06:10is about you,

01:06:11Nathan.

01:06:12But for your information,

01:06:14Lisa is a lot more

01:06:15thoughtful than you

01:06:16and has never accused me

01:06:17of stealing anything

01:06:18from anybody.

01:06:20He looked at her coldly.

01:06:22Emma,

01:06:22you've always supported

01:06:24my career before.

01:06:25I don't understand

01:06:26what's going on.

01:06:28I told you,

01:06:29that whole mess

01:06:30with the crown star

01:06:30was the last time

01:06:31I'll ever take the blame

01:06:33for you or Amber.

01:06:34She remained calm,

01:06:36her voice steady

01:06:37and firm,

01:06:38her eyes

01:06:38completely emotionless.

01:06:41Nathan took a deep breath.

01:06:43If you're really

01:06:44going to be this childish,

01:06:46maybe we should

01:06:47call off our wedding,

01:06:48he hissed.

01:06:49He was sure

01:06:50that this tactic

01:06:51would make Eva apologize

01:06:52and regret ever

01:06:54trying to go up against him.

01:06:55She remained silent

01:06:56for a few moments,

01:06:58allowing him to believe

01:06:59that his threat

01:07:00was sinking in

01:07:00and she would cave.

01:07:02He could never

01:07:03have anticipated

01:07:04the response

01:07:05she was about to give.

01:07:06You don't want

01:07:07to get married anymore?

01:07:08Okay,

01:07:09we won't.

01:07:10Emma said

01:07:11with a pleasant smile.

01:07:12Let's wait

01:07:13until you're not busy.

01:07:14We can talk more later.

01:07:16Nathan was in shock.

01:07:18He reached out

01:07:19and grabbed Emma's shoulder.

01:07:21Don't you love me anymore?

01:07:23What about you?

01:07:24Do you love me?

01:07:26Emma carefully

01:07:26slipped out of his grasp,

01:07:28mindful of her promise

01:07:29to Eric

01:07:29not to get too close

01:07:31to another man.

01:07:32Nathan was stunned

01:07:33into silence.

01:07:34He opened his mouth,

01:07:36but nothing came out.

01:07:37The truth was

01:07:38he had never had

01:07:39any real feelings

01:07:40for Emma,

01:07:42but he wasn't ready

01:07:42to give up his hold

01:07:43over her just yet.

01:07:45How can you even

01:07:46question my love?

01:07:48He finally said.

01:07:49Of course,

01:07:50I want to marry you.

01:07:52I just wish you would

01:07:53think a little

01:07:53about all the stress

01:07:54I'm under.

01:07:55It hasn't been easy

01:07:56trying to get Amber

01:07:57into the running

01:07:58for the top 10 model awards.

01:08:00It's frustrating

01:08:01that you can't

01:08:02be more understanding.

01:08:04Emma slowly distanced

01:08:05herself from him,

01:08:07remaining composed.

01:08:09Well,

01:08:09if we're going

01:08:10to get married,

01:08:11you'll have to

01:08:11get used to me.

01:08:13This is who I am

01:08:14from now on.

01:08:15She left him

01:08:16standing there alone

01:08:17as she left the building.

01:08:19Nathan stood still

01:08:20for a while,

01:08:21trying to figure things out.

01:08:23He couldn't understand

01:08:24why Emma's attitude

01:08:25had changed so much.

01:08:27But after some thought,

01:08:29he decided

01:08:29she was just jealous

01:08:31of Amber.

01:08:32He didn't have the energy

01:08:33to chase after her

01:08:34and try and talk things out.

01:08:36After she cools down,

01:08:38she'll get over it,

01:08:39he thought.

01:08:40Besides,

01:08:40he needed to spend

01:08:41some time

01:08:42smoothing things over

01:08:43with Amber,

01:08:44who was still

01:08:44very upset.

01:08:47Emma put Nathan

01:08:48straight out of her mind

01:08:49and decided to hurry

01:08:50home to see Eric.

01:08:52The very thought

01:08:53of seeing him

01:08:53made her heart

01:08:54speed up in excitement.

01:08:56Emma,

01:08:57I'll take you home first

01:08:58so you can recharge,

01:08:59said Lisa.

01:09:00Tomorrow,

01:09:00we're signing

01:09:01the Bellamy contract

01:09:02and then straight off

01:09:03for an out-of-town

01:09:04commercial shoot.

01:09:05Lisa,

01:09:06would you be up

01:09:07for canceling the lease

01:09:08on your apartment

01:09:09and moving into

01:09:10my old home,

01:09:11rent-free?

01:09:12You can go ahead

01:09:12and change the locks.

01:09:14If Nathan asks,

01:09:15you could just say

01:09:16that you've moved in

01:09:17to work more closely

01:09:18with me

01:09:19and he can't have

01:09:20a key anymore.

01:09:21Tomorrow,

01:09:21I'll sign a new contract

01:09:22with you.

01:09:23That works for me.

01:09:24It'll save me some money

01:09:25if nothing else.

01:09:27After a pause,

01:09:28Lisa looked at Emma

01:09:29with a smirk.

01:09:30The mighty president

01:09:31of Kaleidoscope.

01:09:33How are things

01:09:33going there?

01:09:35Don't be so nosy,

01:09:36Emma replied,

01:09:37refusing to meet

01:09:38her friend's eyes.

01:09:40When Emma got

01:09:40to Eric's place,

01:09:41he wasn't back yet.

01:09:43She made her way

01:09:44into the kitchen

01:09:44and found his personal

01:09:45chef preparing dinner.

01:09:47Please,

01:09:48let me help,

01:09:49she said.

01:09:49There's no need.

01:09:51I wouldn't want

01:09:51to trouble you,

01:09:52the chef,

01:09:53an amicable

01:09:54middle-aged woman,

01:09:55answered.

01:09:56How about this instead,

01:09:58Emma suggested.

01:09:59Please,

01:10:00let me give you

01:10:01the rest of the day off

01:10:02and I'll cook dinner

01:10:03for Eric tonight.

01:10:04After some persuasion,

01:10:06Emma ushered the chef

01:10:07out of the kitchen

01:10:08and started her own cooking.

01:10:10Eric didn't get home

01:10:11until late at night.

01:10:13Not seeing Emma at first,

01:10:15he followed his nose

01:10:16to the kitchen.

01:10:17He was surprised

01:10:18to see her standing

01:10:19at the stove

01:10:19wearing an apron.

01:10:21After a moment,

01:10:22admiring her long,

01:10:24slender legs,

01:10:25he quietly approached her.

01:10:27Eric,

01:10:27careful,

01:10:28I'm cooking.

01:10:29Don't you want

01:10:30to eat?

01:10:30Mr. Eric Roberts,

01:10:32CEO of Kaleidoscope,

01:10:34can cook?

01:10:35Emma asked,

01:10:36raising her eyebrows.

01:10:38You know,

01:10:38this one time

01:10:39is okay,

01:10:40he said softly,

01:10:41but from now on,

01:10:43no more cooking

01:10:43for you.

01:10:44You shouldn't have

01:10:45to put in all this work

01:10:46and it would be a tragedy

01:10:47if you scalded yourself.

01:10:49I'm quite capable

01:10:50of taking care of myself

01:10:51in the kitchen,

01:10:52she said playfully,

01:10:54touched by his concern.

01:10:56They continued preparing

01:10:57their dinner together.

01:10:58It turned out that Eric

01:11:00was actually quite

01:11:01an accomplished cook.

01:11:02When the meal was ready,

01:11:04they took a moment

01:11:04to admire the gorgeous spread

01:11:06they'd put together.

01:11:07It felt special,

01:11:09like something not just

01:11:10any couple could do

01:11:11in such perfect sync.

01:11:13As they sat down

01:11:14to enjoy their meal together,

01:11:16Emma said,

01:11:17tomorrow I'm headed to Seattle

01:11:19for a commercial shoot.

01:11:20I'm not sure how long

01:11:21the trip will be,

01:11:22but I definitely won't

01:11:23be home tomorrow night.

01:11:25Are you signing the contract

01:11:26with Bellamy tomorrow?

01:11:28Will you be leaving

01:11:29right after that?

01:11:30Yes,

01:11:31Bellamy wants to launch

01:11:32their new product

01:11:33as soon as possible,

01:11:34she said.

01:11:35Eric,

01:11:36I'll need some time,

01:11:37but I know that I can rise

01:11:39to a position

01:11:39that you'll be proud of.

01:11:41I'm already proud of you,
