00:00:00Fake boyfriends? Interesting.
00:00:09I just can't believe we did that.
00:00:13Mia, will you marry me?
00:00:15Yes! Oh my god!
00:00:20I can seem to.
00:00:23Perhaps this will help return in room?
00:00:30I thought as much.
00:00:33It's me.
00:00:34You're bluffing my dog.
00:00:36She would never find out.
00:00:40Now this is what we're talking about, James.
00:00:44Anyone here?
00:00:47What do you want from me?
00:00:50Anyone here?
00:00:51What do you want from me?
00:00:53It's time to tell the truth, Richard, don't you think?
00:00:56Anyone here?
00:01:03What do you want from me?
00:01:16It's time to tell the truth Richard, don't you think?
00:01:24Please.
00:01:25Put the gun down.
00:01:28You don't want to end up like this.
00:01:30Mia is the only one in love.
00:01:55That's the only one in love.
00:01:58Mike Allen. Neat.
00:02:01Ok.
00:02:07Marriage suffocating.
00:02:09Tell me about it.
00:02:12Sounds like you've got something you want to say.
00:02:16Family pressures, right?
00:02:19Want to talk?
00:02:26My family have been on my case for years.
00:02:28It's like they have already chosen my future spouse.
00:02:35My family wants to plan my entire life.
00:02:38I'm a Kalanithi.
00:02:43I'm James. James Turner, by the way.
00:02:47I'm Mia. Pleasure to meet you.
00:02:53It's our endless battle.
00:02:58It's my new comrade.
00:03:08James, right?
00:03:16Fancy seeing you here again.
00:03:18Mia. Must be fake.
00:03:20That or you just come here a little too often.
00:03:25Scotch. Neat.
00:03:27Got it.
00:03:29How are things going on right?
00:03:33My mom calls me every single day to see if I'm bringing someone home for Thanksgiving dinner.
00:03:40And what was your response?
00:03:43Um, I said yes just to stop her calls, but I don't think there's anyone.
00:03:49You?
00:03:51My parents are obsessed with my kids, even though I'm still single.
00:03:56Splash please.
00:04:06Here, to our endless battle.
00:04:08Mia, I've been thinking, why don't we help each other out here?
00:04:34What do you mean?
00:04:36Maybe we can be the plus one for each other, so our families will stop pushing us.
00:04:42Fake boyfriends? Interesting.
00:04:46Only once. And we can be free for a long time.
00:04:51It's not what I usually do, but maybe it's exactly what I need right now.
00:04:57This night is just getting more interesting.
00:05:01Sounds like the craziest night I've ever had.
00:05:03Not yet. Wait till Thanksgiving.
00:05:06Okay, boyfriend. Why don't you introduce yourself more to me?
00:05:12Well, I own a real estate company. We work with many partners on their projects.
00:05:18You sure look like a boss. The Scotch gives it away.
00:05:22Alright, enough about it. Tell me something about yourself.
00:05:25Well, I'm an artist and a gallery owner. Not to show off, but you've probably seen a lot of my work around Manhattan already.
00:05:35Wait, are you Mia Davis? That Mia Davis?
00:05:41In the flesh, darling.
00:05:44I understand the emergence, but this is not how negotiation works.
00:05:53I need this to be done in three days. Our investors are not going to wait for us.
00:05:58Anderson, I assure you, we are doing everything we can.
00:06:03I trust you because you are the best I've got.
00:06:06We won't let you down.
00:06:07We won't let you down.
00:06:08We won't let you down.
00:06:09We won't let you down.
00:06:11Hmm.
00:06:12We won't let you down.
00:06:36Hey there.
00:06:38Mia, what a pleasant surprise.
00:06:40How did you have time to call me today?
00:06:43Is this a bad time?
00:06:45You sound like you've had a rough day.
00:06:47It was one of those days.
00:06:49Well, sounds like you could use a break.
00:06:52How about a drink to unwind later?
00:06:56Let me check.
00:06:59Yeah, I can really use that. I'll meet you at the same bar.
00:07:11Knowing my mom, she'll definitely want you to stay over.
00:07:15So we'll probably spend three days in one bedroom.
00:07:19After that, we'll be free to go back to our regular lives.
00:07:23Sounds like a plan.
00:07:24Here we go, James.
00:07:35Remember, we're a couple deeply in love.
00:07:39Got it.
00:07:40I'm home.
00:07:41Come here.
00:07:43It's been so long.
00:07:45Mom, this is James, my boyfriend.
00:07:47Pleasure to meeting Mrs. Davis.
00:07:48Mia's told me so much about.
00:07:49Please, call me Maria.
00:07:50Common name.
00:07:51Help us out with some cookies.
00:07:53Before I finish dressing with twerking.
00:07:54So far, so good.
00:07:58Let's keep it up.
00:07:59Please, call me Maria, call my name, help yourself with some cookies before I finish dressing the turkey.
00:08:10So far, so good.
00:08:12Let's keep it up.
00:08:19You know, I'm actually enjoying this day.
00:08:22Me too.
00:08:24I feel like we're a real couple.
00:08:28So, you two, tell me how you met.
00:08:34Of course.
00:08:36It was a charming little cafe on the 3rd Avenue.
00:08:39Neil was sitting alone reading a chat for Eugenides and I couldn't resist striking out the conversation.
00:08:46Oh, how I met you.
00:08:49I'm so happy you guys met each other.
00:08:53It's been too long for me to walk from someone so happy.
00:08:58Please.
00:08:59Hello, mons are your camera.
00:09:00Please!
00:09:08I'm so happy you Remarked.
00:09:10I'm so happy for you.
00:09:11See you later.
00:09:12Bye, Mia.
00:09:13Finally!
00:09:14In and.
00:09:15I believe in.
00:09:16In my house.
00:09:17Peter, your mam is here.
00:09:18What do we do?
00:09:20Are you guys filming this map?
00:09:21No, no, no, no, no.
00:09:22halter, Michael.
00:09:23It's a massive tomb of the mine chess building.
00:09:24Quick, come in here.
00:09:31Come in.
00:09:36Good morning, lovebirds. I can see you had a lovely night.
00:09:40Stop it, mom. You're making it awkward.
00:09:44Look at you, all glowing.
00:09:50I'll do everything for my princess.
00:09:52Okay, I think the couple needs their alone time now.
00:09:58Okay, okay. Just don't take too long. And why don't you get back to the city today?
00:10:12I have to say, it was quite a play in your house.
00:10:14It was perfect. They all bought it.
00:10:18Remember how your mom almost got us in the bedroom.
00:10:21My heart was about to jump out when I heard that knock. But we made it.
00:10:29So has it been easier for you with your parents since our last visit?
00:10:34They just won't let the topic off you.
00:10:36Same here. But now, my mom won't stop asking me about the wedding. I'm going to lose my mind.
00:10:42Let's just share the night we have right now.
00:10:48Well, we still can.
00:10:50Well, we still can.
00:11:01You know, James, it's nights like these that really make me appreciate the simple things in life.
00:11:07I feel the same.
00:11:10I know there's beauty in commitment, but shouldn't it be our own life trips to make?
00:11:15Exactly. I'd rather cherish these moments with you and my friends.
00:11:22Telling me to rush into a life? Raising kids in a house and giving up all of my freedoms? No thank you.
00:11:31Wait. I have an idea. It might help both of us.
00:11:42I'm all ears.
00:11:43Thank King. What if we turn the tables on our families?
00:11:53Thank King. What if we turn the tables on our families?
00:12:00Please elaborate.
00:12:03What if we consider a contract marriage?
00:12:08A contract marriage?
00:12:09Yeah. Our families will be satisfied while we actually live a free life.
00:12:15We'll make a legal contract with maybe separate bedrooms, financial terms and so on.
00:12:22Oh. No feelings should be included.
00:12:25This is huge. I need to think about it.
00:12:30I know. It's not something we deal with the person whom you just met.
00:12:34But think about this. The contract will satisfy our parents' expectations.
00:12:40So we can take control of our own lives without their interference.
00:12:45It's the perfect solution to our current dilemma.
00:12:49It's just, like I said, love and marriage are not supposed to be contractual.
00:12:55They should be based on emotions and connection that grows naturally.
00:13:02Get it, Mia. I do.
00:13:05But sometimes life doesn't follow our script.
00:13:08And we need to adapt to that.
00:13:10Our life won't change the bit.
00:13:12Just more freedom with this contract.
00:13:14But what about the no emotions term?
00:13:18Should we really cut off our feelings like that?
00:13:21It's necessary.
00:13:23We need to avoid the situation of falling in love with each other.
00:13:27It will make things difficult.
00:13:29Well, you do make a good point.
00:13:33I do want to take control over my own destiny again.
00:13:40But we need to set boundaries.
00:13:44Conditions.
00:13:46We'll stick with friendship.
00:13:48Contractual partners.
00:13:50Agreed, Mia.
00:13:52I'll write the legal contract and we should both be clear about all the terms.
00:13:56Oh, and one more thing, James.
00:13:58We need to keep our personal lives separate from all of this.
00:14:02We both continue to pursue our goals, passions, and relationships.
00:14:08Absolutely.
00:14:10Our contract won't affect any of our lives.
00:14:13We can make it done tomorrow.
00:14:15Followers quick will take care of everything.
00:14:19Deal.
00:14:29I can't believe we're actually doing this.
00:14:34Yeah.
00:14:35We've got that far, Mia.
00:14:39Let's go through this contract together.
00:14:41Okay.
00:14:45Separate bedrooms.
00:14:49No feelings clause.
00:14:50And it's clear financial terms.
00:14:59Yep.
00:15:02We will be committed to each other from now on.
00:15:07Okay.
00:15:09Okay.
00:15:11Okay.
00:15:20I can't believe we did that.
00:15:33So, what's next?
00:15:35We'll tell our parents and make it official.
00:15:38I'll propose to you in your apartment and send pictures to our families.
00:15:43Well, it's a lot to get done just to prove we're getting married.
00:15:48Yes.
00:15:49Dan will plan a wedding so everyone will buy it.
00:15:52It's all part of the plan.
00:15:54I really want to get this out of my head.
00:15:57Can we just get it over with so we can move on with our lives?
00:16:09Did you turn the camera on?
00:16:12Yeah.
00:16:13It's working.
00:16:18Mia.
00:16:19There is something I'm wanting to ask you tonight.
00:16:21Yes?
00:16:26Mia.
00:16:27Will you marry me?
00:16:29Oh my God, James.
00:16:30Yes!
00:16:36Oh my God.
00:16:47I can't believe we just did that.
00:17:02It's all part of the plan.
00:17:04Yeah.
00:17:15This is our first big show on the stage.
00:17:19We have to make sure that we look like a happy couple in front of everyone.
00:17:27Of course.
00:17:28Not mistake is allowed tonight.
00:17:34It's getting harder for me to tell between all this and the truth.
00:17:35I know, but we have to stay firm.
00:17:36It's getting harder for me to tell between all this and the truth.
00:17:41I know, but we have to stay firm.
00:17:42Focus on the bigger picture.
00:17:43Neither of us wants a real marriage right now.
00:17:44And we have to stay firm.
00:17:45Focus on the bigger picture.
00:17:46Neither of us wants a real marriage right now.
00:17:47And we still have our wedding in two days.
00:17:48I know, but...
00:17:49We have to stay firm.
00:17:50Focus on the bigger picture.
00:17:54Neither of us wants a real marriage right now.
00:18:09And we still have our wedding in two days.

00:21:51James?
00:21:55Where are you?
00:21:59Right here, Mia.
00:22:01Is there any candle?
00:22:07James.
00:22:13So, any clue on that note?
00:22:21Um...
00:22:30Sorry.
00:22:35Hello?
00:22:37I hope you enjoyed the champagne I sent you, a gift to celebrate your fake wedding.
00:22:42Someone knows our secret.
00:22:52What should we do?
00:23:12You know, I've been thinking about the day we met.
00:23:18It feels like a lifetime ago.
00:23:22I know, and I'm glad that I met you.
00:23:26You're such a special woman, and I've never met anyone like you before.
00:23:31You too.
00:23:40I'm glad I met a real gentleman.
00:23:43Even though it's a dramatic fake wedding, I'm happy to have you here with me.
00:23:52Even though it's a dramatic fake wedding, I'm happy to have you here with me.
00:24:04It's not a fairy tale.
00:24:07It's a bloody reality.
00:24:09But, I still like it.
00:24:13It's our story.
00:24:15It's my future.
00:24:35What's happening?
00:24:38We're stuck. What do we do? I need to be there on time.
00:24:46Let's call the building. They should come and fix this.
00:24:59There's no signal. We could be trapped in here for hours.
00:25:03We won't. Someone will notice the elevator went wrong and come to fix this.
00:25:10We just need to be patient.
00:25:17What's that for?
00:25:18Just to give us some strength. Friends can hurt too.
00:25:22Okay.
00:25:33I can't believe this is happening.
00:25:38Well, at least it's a short break from our complex life.
00:25:44You always find a way to be positive, don't you?
00:25:47James, what if people find out about our contract marriage?
00:25:55They'd be so disappointed.
00:25:59We are doing everything we can.
00:26:01And so far, we did good.
00:26:03Everyone is happy.
00:26:06I just think about how far we've come.
00:26:09Since the day we met, there was the gala, the proposal, the wedding, and now blackmail?
00:26:20It's like an endless spy game.
00:26:23I know.
00:26:25But we're in this together.
00:26:27We chose this to take control of our life.
00:26:30And now we are tied together by fate.
00:26:33We are one.
00:26:34I suddenly feel so relieved.
00:26:42Maybe it's because I'm not alone anymore.
00:26:46I know.
00:26:47I always rush to my friends after a bed day.
00:26:50And here I am with a dearest friend.
00:26:54And now maybe I can finally get some space from my mom.
00:26:58Now that I'm busy with my new husband.
00:27:01Mine too.
00:27:02My mom called the other day.
00:27:03But when she saw you walk out from the bath, she hung up as soon as she could.
00:27:08But of course, she made fun of us.
00:27:11Or maybe next time I can show up even sexier and then she can make fun of you some more.
00:27:18I'm sexy now.
00:27:19Maybe we should talk about what just happened.
00:27:35The moment was...
00:27:37I enjoyed it.
00:27:39There is something I never thought I would say.
00:27:42But it's not what we expected.
00:27:45I thought we got into this to avoid marriage.
00:27:48Mia, I have to tell you.
00:27:50I don't want to lie to myself or to you anymore.
00:27:55I care about you more than I should.
00:27:58I don't want to hide my feelings and pretend nothing is there.
00:28:03I'm in love with you.
00:28:07I actually feel the exact same way.
00:28:14I can't stop thinking about you all the time.
00:28:19Although we got into this relationship to avoid affection,
00:28:24I'm glad that fate brought us together.
00:28:26Let's tell everyone the truth.
00:28:30I'm sure they will understand.
00:28:32They may be mad at first, but they will be happy for us in the end.
00:28:36Our families will be shocked when they find out.
00:28:39I know, Mia, but it's time to set things right.
00:28:42It should be our priority right now.
00:28:43James, our parents aside, I'm really worried about that blackmail that we received at the bar.
00:29:03Who would be so interested in our personal matters?
00:29:06Mia, I have no idea.
00:29:10But I hired an investigator, hope she can bring me some valuable information.
00:29:15I have a feeling someone is watching us from the dark.
00:29:18We should have never gotten ourselves into this mess.
00:29:28This contract marriage was a stupid idea in hindsight, bringing us all of these unexpected problems.
00:29:34I chose this to live a better life, Mia.
00:29:45And yet, I feel that life is worse under the pretense.
00:29:49We will get ourselves out of this situation.
00:29:52We'll find the right time to tell everyone the truth to our marriage,
00:29:56and we'll for sure catch the person hunting us.
00:30:04Who's there?
00:30:29Who's there?
00:30:34Who's there?
00:30:35Who's there?
00:30:36Who's there?
00:30:37Who's there?
00:30:38Who's there?
00:30:39Who's there?
00:30:41Anyone here?
00:30:42What do you want from me?
00:30:53You're exactly where I want you, Mia.
00:30:56Where am I?
00:30:58What did I do?
00:31:00I assure you, there's a misunderstanding.
00:31:02Please, just tell me what you want from me.
00:31:06Who are you, Mia.
00:31:07I just need you to be here, your body.
00:31:11We can talk things out.
00:31:13You don't need to tie me to a chair.
00:31:16I will cooperate.
00:31:18If it is money, I can give it to you.
00:31:23Just let me go.
00:31:27I'm sorry.
00:31:32Hello?
00:31:33Mr. Turner, it's time for you to decide.
00:31:35Maya's life depends on you.
00:31:36Don't bother.
00:31:37You won't recognize who I am.
00:31:39What matters is, Maya.
00:31:40You have 24 hours to prepare $5 million if you want to see her alive.
00:31:42Who are you, and what do you want?
00:31:44That is not a question for me to answer.
00:31:46Just do as I said.
00:31:47I can't arrange that much money in such a short time.
00:31:49No.
00:31:50It's time for you to be here.
00:31:51You have 24 hours to prepare $5 million if you want to see her alive.
00:31:53Who are you, and what do you want?
00:31:54That is not a question for me to answer.
00:31:55Just do as I said.
00:31:56I can't arrange that much money in such a short time.
00:31:57What matters is Maya. You have 24 hours to prepare 5 million dollars if you want to see her alive.
00:32:04Who are you and what do you want?
00:32:06That is not a question for me to answer. Just do as I said.
00:32:10I can't arrange that much money in such a short time.
00:32:13That's not my concern. Mr. Turner, you can't put a price on love, can you?
00:32:20I need to be sure she's okay. Let me talk to her.
00:32:22That won't be happening.
00:32:24I swear, if you dare to touch her, I will hunt you down and pull out your eyes myself.
00:32:38I don't know what to do, Scott. They're asking for 5 million in 24 hours. I can't lose her.
00:32:45We'll figure it out, James. I'll do everything I can.
00:32:49I can't lose Mia.
00:32:51I thought the relationship between you two was strictly based on the contract.
00:32:58We found each other the one we have been looking for our whole life.
00:33:02Oh, no. This was not meant to happen.
00:33:05I have to find her. I can't stand to see her in danger.
00:33:10We will. But who will commit such a horrible crime? Anyone ring the bell?
00:33:17Mia wouldn't hurt anyone. I can assure you. This has something to do with that blackmail we received.
00:33:25Blackmail?
00:33:26Someone has been stalking us. They know about the contract marriage and threaten to expose us.
00:33:32Whatever it takes, I will hunt this person down.
00:33:39Mark, please. I need your help. Mia's life is in danger.
00:33:43I wish I could, James. 5 million is a lot. I can't pull those resources in such a short time.
00:33:53Save it, Mark. When it comes to your turn, I dropped a lot of things to help you.
00:33:57You're a fucking nuisance. I guess our business partnership has also come to an end.
00:34:13I might be able to cash this out.
00:34:26Thank you for calling CPM Bank. Mr. Turner, how can we help you today?
00:34:32I have a certificate of deposit with your bank. I want to cash it out immediately.
00:34:37I understand the urgency. Please give us a moment.
00:34:43Can you get money from me in an hour? It's for an urgent matter.
00:34:53Sure. Since this is a huge sum of money, I will be needing you to come over.
00:34:58I will be there in 20 minutes. Please get the cash ready by then.
00:35:02Yes, sir. All noted.
00:35:03Great.
00:35:13Is it ready?
00:35:21Yes. Give me the location.
00:35:23Boom!
00:35:24I can't thank you enough for saving my life, James.
00:35:42Do anything to keep you safe. We're in this together.
00:35:49I thought I'd never see you again.
00:35:51I want to give you both an update. We are investigating the lead we got from the drop-off point.
00:36:14And our main focus is on tracking down the kidnappers and bringing them to justice.
00:36:23Thank you, Detective. We appreciate your effort.
00:36:25I'm so, so, so sorry about all of this, James.
00:36:38It's not your fault. We'll get through this.
00:36:42Here we go.
00:36:43I'm sorry.
00:36:55It's been a while since we had a piece of room like this.
00:37:09Yeah.
00:37:11It's nice to get a break from all the chaos.
00:37:13Mia, you won't believe this.
00:37:30What is it?
00:37:32A company chose us to partner in a luxury project.
00:37:36They love my pitch.
00:37:37Oh, my God, James. That's amazing.
00:37:41I'm going to call my employees to announce this news.
00:37:46And an after party later?
00:37:49You know me too well.
00:37:53Will you pick me up later for a little celebration?
00:37:57Absolutely. I'll meet you at home after work.
00:37:59Yeah, yeah.
00:38:00Yes, I need you to gather the people online for a meeting.
00:38:24We got that project and we need to present it to the client this afternoon.
00:38:28Wow, that's fantastic. I will gather down.
00:38:47Thank you all for your time.
00:38:49I'm eager to bring my team on board to execute this project.
00:38:54Before I finish, I'm just curious.
00:38:57Why you guys chose us out of all the companies in the world?
00:39:01Our president insisted you were the perfect fit.
00:39:04She said you're an old friend.
00:39:07An old friend?
00:39:10I'm not sure I know who it could be.
00:39:13You'll find out soon enough, James.
00:39:17For now, focus on getting the job done.
00:39:27What's wrong, James?
00:39:54How could that be?
00:40:03I don't know.
00:40:06But we are going to find out soon.
00:40:08Samantha, have you found anything?
00:40:19I have been waiting ages to hear from you.
00:40:22Hope you have news that I want to hear.
00:40:25James, we've made some significant progress.
00:40:28I think we are closed on covering who has been trying to blackmail you and Mia.
00:40:34I'm over yours. Details, please.
00:40:36We managed to trace the source of the blackmail.
00:40:39At times, we found a connection to an individual named Richard Kingsley.
00:40:44Richard Kingsley?
00:40:46Never heard that name.
00:40:47And why would he do this?
00:40:49We're still walking on that part.
00:40:51We'll gather more evidence and get to the bottom of this.
00:40:55Thank you, Samantha.
00:40:56Keep me posted on any updates.
00:40:58I want to know everything about Richard Kingsley and his motives.
00:41:01Of course, we are so close to unraveling this mystery.
00:41:05I received these pictures of you in the apartment.
00:41:23I tried to call you many times and you didn't answer.
00:41:26I thought something happened to you.
00:41:28I'm so sorry.
00:41:30I've been so engrossed in my painting.
00:41:33Everything's okay.
00:41:35I'm just glad you're okay.
00:41:37I'm safe and sound.
00:41:39Thank you for worrying about me so much.
00:41:43Samantha, the private detective I heard,
00:41:46is close to finding the person behind all this.
00:41:49I won't let him walk in one piece after what he has done.
00:41:52You know, it's moments like these
00:42:01that really make me appreciate having you in my life, James.
00:42:05Contract or not.
00:42:07I feel the same way, Mia.
00:42:09I won't ever want to lose you.
00:42:13I've been working on this for a few weeks.
00:42:16It may not be to everyone's taste,
00:42:18but it means a lot to me.
00:42:22It's wonderful.
00:42:25You're really talented.
00:42:28Thank you so much for your support.
00:42:30It means the world to me.
00:42:46Hello?
00:42:48James, I trust you are well.
00:42:50I wanted to inform you
00:42:52that there is an urgent meeting scheduled
00:42:55regarding the latest project we are partnering up on.
00:42:58Sure.
00:42:59Where should we meet?
00:43:02I can rearrange some work to make it.
00:43:05That's great.
00:43:07Your expertise and insights have been invaluable to us.
00:43:11I'll be at your office at 3 p.m.
00:43:13and we can go over all the details.
00:43:16Thank you for your recognition.
00:43:18I'm more than happy to lead this project to our huge success.
00:43:21Hi.
00:43:26I'm calling to check if we should reschedule today's meeting.
00:43:32Hi, I'm just calling to check if we should reschedule today's meeting.
00:43:47My apologies, James.
00:43:49I wouldn't be able to make the meeting myself due to some unexpected events.
00:43:55But our president is on her way to meet with you herself.
00:43:58Wow, I was not aware of that.
00:44:02Maybe you can catch up with each other.
00:44:04It's a great opportunity.
00:44:06She surely is very excited about this.
00:44:31I'm James Turner.
00:44:43You're...
00:44:44Jimmy, don't you remember me?
00:44:55I'm sorry, but I can't seem to.
00:44:58Perhaps this will help you to remember me?
00:45:08I thought as much.
00:45:10It's me.
00:45:12Your beloved Mabel.
00:45:16Mabel?
00:45:18What the...
00:45:28You know, Mabel, next year is going to be a whole new world to me.
00:45:45I know, babe.
00:45:47I can't believe you're graduating.
00:45:50Time did fly.
00:45:51Life after college.
00:45:53It's a bit scary, but I'm so excited.
00:45:57I want to work in real estate and I can't wait what I can achieve.
00:46:02I'm sure nothing can stop you from the goal.
00:46:05I can't wait to graduate so we can get married.
00:46:13Yeah, I know.
00:46:16Did you lock the door?
00:46:18Of course I did.
00:46:21Hope you won't change after you leave.
00:46:24I won't.
00:46:25I won't.
00:46:39Mabel?
00:46:41James, I can't explain.
00:46:44I'm so sorry I have to find out like this, but Mabel and I have been together for a while now.
00:46:55Mabel, what are you doing here?
00:47:05It's Victorian.
00:47:08And for business, of course, darling.
00:47:13What are you playing here?
00:47:16What's up with all the charade?
00:47:20Let's say I wanted to see how have you been, James.
00:47:25You know, for the old time's sake.
00:47:29Old time's sake?
00:47:31You cheated on me with my best friend.
00:47:34What do you want?
00:47:35People change, James.
00:47:38And I just can't let you off my mind.
00:47:44How did you become the president of this company?
00:47:47What are you hiding?
00:47:49A woman like me can get whatever I want.
00:47:52It's just a little trick.
00:47:55See?
00:47:56I helped you got this project.
00:47:59I've missed you, James.
00:48:01Missed us.
00:48:03We should be together.
00:48:05I'm the only one who can help you.
00:48:09No, Victoria.
00:48:11I won't let you manipulate it.
00:48:13Not again.
00:48:21You have always been a challenge, James.
00:48:25This is not how I imaged our reunion.
00:48:27If you come here to talk about that project, let's get to it.
00:48:31Otherwise, you should leave.
00:48:33Don't be so harsh.
00:48:34If you want business, we'll talk about business.
00:48:40Let's get professional.
00:48:43James, the reason I chose you is not only because of our past.
00:48:48I trust you and your ability.
00:48:50I know what you're capable of.
00:48:52Really?
00:48:56Oh, please.
00:48:57Put our history behind, will you?
00:49:00I pay responsibility to my company, too.
00:49:03Okay?
00:49:05I didn't take this job for fun.
00:49:08Fine.
00:49:09Let's be clear.
00:49:11I won't do anything that goes against my principles or the law.
00:49:17Agreed, James.
00:49:19We'll keep it strictly professional.
00:49:21Scott, you won't believe what just happened.
00:49:48What's the matter?
00:49:49Wait, Mabel, your ex-girlfriend from college?
00:50:04You haven't seen her in years, right?
00:50:06That's the one.
00:50:07She's now going by Victoria, and she's the president of this major corporation.
00:50:11She wants my help on the project.
00:50:16I can't shake feeling that there's more to it.
00:50:20I think we have to wait for her move.
00:50:22I need to find out what's really going on.
00:50:25But I can't do it alone.
00:50:26Will you help me, Scott?
00:50:28Of course.
00:50:29Happy to help.
00:50:30She wants you involved in a realistic project.
00:50:33But it's more than just business, I'm sure of it.
00:50:35I have the same feeling.
00:50:38Nothing is ever pure about her.
00:50:39I don't want Mia to worry about this.
00:50:42She's working on an important artwork.
00:50:44And I promised I'll protect her.
00:50:47Of course.
00:50:49I'll try my best to find out Victoria's true intent.
00:50:53Thanks, man.
00:50:53What should I do without you?
00:51:06James, are you okay?
00:51:08You seem a little bit off tonight.
00:51:12Sorry to make it work, babe.
00:51:14Just step with work, you know.
00:51:16Alright.
00:51:17It's just that we've been through a lot together.
00:51:21You don't need to hide anything from me.
00:51:23If you want to talk about something, we can figure it out together.
00:51:29Babe.
00:51:31It shouldn't worry you.
00:51:32I can handle it myself.
00:51:34Trust me.
00:51:35Okay.
00:51:36Just remember, I'm always here for you.
00:51:39If you want to talk things through or need some help, I'm here.
00:51:47Thank you, Mia.
00:51:48You focus on your beautiful project and leave everything else to me.
00:51:52James, we're one.
00:51:55There's nothing that we can't handle together.
00:52:03Hi, Jimmy.
00:52:08Victoria.
00:52:09What an unexpected surprise.
00:52:12I don't recall any business meeting with you today.
00:52:17I'm just visiting an old friend.
00:52:20James, I've moved on with my life.
00:52:23I have Mia, and she means everything to me.
00:52:26Oh, please, James.
00:52:28You wouldn't let a college flinch cloud your judgment after all these years.
00:52:34Right?
00:52:35Spare me the details.
00:52:37You betrayed me with my own roommate.
00:52:39What did you expect me to do, James?
00:52:42James, you were leaving college, and I wouldn't survive alone with a blood-sucking family.
00:52:48I need someone to back me up.
00:52:51I was a child.
00:52:52I don't care about your reasons anymore, Victoria.
00:52:57I got over you a long time ago.
00:53:00So cut wherever you're playing here.
00:53:04Come back here, dummy.
00:53:05I don't ever want to meet you again outside of our normal business arrangements.
00:53:17James, I never said I wanted to be your wife.
00:53:21I just want to be in your life.
00:53:28And...
00:53:28You are common with us to check the new site for our project.
00:53:32It's required by our partnership contract.
00:53:42Mia, I've got a business trip coming up.
00:53:46It's a sudden opportunity, and I need to leave for a few days.
00:53:50Oh, really?
00:53:52That's unexpected.
00:53:53When do you leave?
00:53:55Tomorrow morning.
00:53:57I know, it's a short notice, but I'll be back before you know it.
00:54:01All right, James.
00:54:03Just be safe, and don't overwork yourself.
00:54:07I will.
00:54:08I'll miss you so much.
00:54:10James, you've had quite a bit.
00:54:33Is everything all right?
00:54:37Just straight.
00:54:38Relax.
00:54:40Relax.
00:54:49Everything's fun.
00:54:53Just leave me.
00:54:55Oh, you've had enough tonight, James.
00:55:07Let me make sure you're comfortable.
00:55:12Doria, what are you doing?
00:55:16Don't you worry.
00:55:18We'll have a little chat.
00:55:20You're safe with me.
00:55:23What do you...
00:55:24What?
00:55:26You, James.
00:55:28I want you.
00:55:30I want all of you.
00:55:33Your body, your love, and even your soul.
00:55:41Stop it.
00:55:43I'm married.
00:55:46I don't mind.
00:55:48Or maybe this makes you want even more.
00:55:51You enjoy it, don't you?
00:55:58I know exactly how to please you.
00:56:01Yeah.
00:56:02I can do it there.
00:56:04Oh, come on, darling.
00:56:07We all know about your little contract.
00:56:12Besides, she would never find out.
00:56:15You know, this is what we're talking about, James.
00:56:20What the hell happened?
00:56:33I can't believe I'll ever get this far.
00:56:42Don't, baby.
00:56:44Don't, baby.
00:56:46What's wrong?
00:56:48Victoria, this is a mistake.
00:56:51Did you set me up?
00:56:52Why are you laying next to me?
00:56:53Oh, you were just so energetic.
00:56:58Stop the games. I'm serious. I don't love you and don't want to have anything to do with you.
00:57:08Well, well. Let's say we had a stunning night and I saved some pictures for memories.
00:57:19Delete those pictures right now.
00:57:25Why don't you come here and make me?
00:57:30You're playing with fire. I won't be blackmailed or manipulated. Delete them now.
00:57:41You're just no fun, James.
00:57:44I want you to step away from my life. This can't happen again.
00:57:53We'll see about that.
00:57:55Oh, Jamie, Jamie. You can never run away from me.
00:58:13Oh, my God. James, you're home.
00:58:17I miss you too, babe. It's good to be home.
00:58:22Tell me everything about your trip.
00:58:24It was a normal business trip. Nothing special.
00:58:27Let's not talk about it. I just want to enjoy the moment with you.
00:58:32Okay, sure. I'm just so glad you're home.
00:58:47Hello?
00:58:59Hello, Mia.
00:59:01Who's this?
00:59:04I guess Jimmy didn't tell you about me.
00:59:07I'm Victoria, the president of the company James is presently partnering in.
00:59:11Okay. How may I help you?
00:59:14You see, Jimmy and I have come a long way, and since you're not really married to him,
00:59:21so I guess there is no harm in stepping in.
00:59:24What do you mean?
00:59:26You see, James is mine, and mine alone.
00:59:30If you will kindly excuse us so we can be together, that would be great.
00:59:34He would never like someone like you.
00:59:37Oh, please.
00:59:39He showed lots of love to me not long ago.
00:59:42He surely had no time to think of you.
00:59:45I sent you the pictures.
00:59:47Hope you enjoy them.
00:59:57Impossible.
00:59:59He would never do this to me.
01:00:01Hey, what's wrong?
01:00:12Nothing.
01:00:15How was your day?
01:00:17Oh, busy as usual.
01:00:23Who is Victoria?
01:00:27Victoria?
01:00:29Where did you hear that name from?
01:00:32She called me James.
01:00:34She said things.
01:00:37Things...
01:00:39I can't believe.
01:00:44Mia, it's...
01:00:46Can you explain?
01:00:48You have to know...
01:00:50You're the one, and the only one I love.
01:00:53Tell me the truth, James.
01:00:54Is she important to you?
01:01:03She's my ex from college, and also my current business partner.
01:01:07And what about this?
01:01:08Is this part of your business?
01:01:09Is this part of your business?
01:01:10We...
01:01:11We...
01:01:12We...
01:01:13We...
01:01:16We had a businessman.
01:01:17She set me up.
01:01:18I made a mistake.
01:01:19But it's not how it looks like.
01:01:20But it's not how it looks like.
01:01:21I love you.
01:01:22And I don't want her to ruin us.
01:01:23Tell me the truth, James.
01:01:24What happened that night?
01:01:25What happened that night?
01:01:26Yeah.
01:01:27Yeah.
01:01:28I tried to stop her.
01:01:29I tried to stop her.
01:01:31But what happened to you?
01:01:32Well, the truth is.
01:01:33...we...
01:01:34I tried to stop her.
01:01:35But I didn't.
01:01:36We...
01:01:38We...
01:01:39We...
01:01:41We had a businessman.
01:01:42She set me up.
01:01:43I made a mistake.
01:01:45But it's not how it looks like.
01:01:46I love you.
01:01:47And I don't want her to ruin us.
01:01:49Tell me the truth, James.
01:01:50What happened that night?
01:01:53Yeah.
01:01:54I tried to stop her.
01:01:57Yes.
01:01:58What happened that night?
01:01:58I was too drunk and also confused.
01:02:06I don't know if I can trust you anymore, James.
01:02:10You put our relationship on edge.
01:02:13I'm so sorry. I'll do everything it takes to make this right.
01:02:20Please, don't give up on us.
01:02:26I need some space.
01:02:28Please, just leave me alone.
01:02:50Samantha, found anything?
01:02:52Yes, I got a lead.
01:02:54It's been a challenging investigation,
01:02:56but I've uncovered some crucial information leads on Richard Kingsley.
01:03:02I'm listening.
01:03:04He went to the same college with Mia,
01:03:06and he developed an obsession over her everything.
01:03:10He's been stalking your life,
01:03:12collecting information,
01:03:14and attempting to get her.
01:03:15This is insane.
01:03:17How did he head so close to us?
01:03:19He used virus illnesses and keep a low profile,
01:03:23which made it challenging to track him.
01:03:26But we've identified his patterns and his current location.
01:03:31I'd advise involving the authorities
01:03:33and getting a restraining order against him.
01:03:37Thank you, Samantha.
01:03:38I appreciate your dedication.
01:03:40You and Mia deserve peace, James.
01:03:42I will continue to monitor the situation,
01:03:45but please take legal action to protect yourself.
01:03:48I'll take care of her,
01:03:51and it's time for me to take control.
01:03:53I'll take care of her,
01:03:55and it's time for me to take control.
01:03:57It's time to tell the truth, Richard.
01:04:13Don't you think?
01:04:14Who sent you after us?
01:04:16Someone like you would never think of such a deliberate plan.
01:04:19If you don't tell the truth,
01:04:20I will call the cops on you.
01:04:22Fine.
01:04:24Fine.
01:04:25It was Victoria.
01:04:26Victoria.
01:04:28Victoria.
01:04:28How did she convince you to do this?
01:04:33She told me about your contract marriage.
01:04:37She told me you don't even care about Mia.
01:04:41She promised to help me get Mia back
01:04:43after she gets you back.
01:04:47You were manipulated, Richard.
01:04:50You're such a clown.
01:04:51James, I've been seeing you.
01:05:04I thought someone never would see me again, huh?
01:05:08Miss me already?
01:05:11Victoria, I want answers.
01:05:14Why did you hire Richard to stalk us?
01:05:19Richard?
01:05:22Never heard any Richard in my life.
01:05:24I know it was you.
01:05:26He told me everything.
01:05:31Okay.
01:05:32It was me.
01:05:34But I did it for us.
01:05:38For us?
01:05:39I don't know there isn't us.
01:05:48I've always loved you, Jimmy.
01:05:50I just want to be back together with you.
01:05:53Here is the plan.
01:06:04We need to kidnap Mia without anyone tracing back to us.
01:06:10We are professionals.
01:06:11We know how to cover our tracks.
01:06:13Good.
01:06:15Good.
01:06:17And remember,
01:06:18I want her unharmed.
01:06:22This is just
01:06:23to make James realize
01:06:25he belongs to me.
01:06:29We understand.
01:06:31You can't watch what.
01:06:43What?
01:06:51Hello?
01:06:55Who's there?
01:07:01My, my, Mia.
01:07:05What a tangled web we weave.
01:07:13It's me, Victoria.
01:07:17What do you want?
01:07:19I warned you to walk away, but you just wouldn't listen.
01:07:23So I decided to teach you a little less.
01:07:27See?
01:07:29You cried.
01:07:31You would never be good enough for James.
01:07:34He'll never get away with this.
01:07:37James wants nothing to do with you.
01:07:40We'll see about that.
01:07:43You can't control other people's feelings.
01:07:47You're such a bunny.
01:07:50Baby, Jimmy wanted to have a bet.
01:07:53Why else he would choose you over me?
01:07:56What we have is real.
01:07:58And you need to face the truth.
01:08:02Listen to me carefully, Bunny.
01:08:04If you truly care for James, you'll stay away from him.
01:08:08It's not a negotiation, it's a demand.
01:08:10James and I are married.
01:08:13And there's nothing you can do about it.
01:08:16Don't be too confident.
01:08:20Just yet.
01:08:21Just yet.
01:08:29Mia!
01:08:31Hello, Jimmy.
01:08:33What's the hurry?
01:08:35You came as soon as you got the message, huh?
01:08:37I only sent you the message to see how much you would sacrifice for Mia.
01:08:43Mia!
01:08:45Let her go.
01:08:46You want me?
01:08:47I'm here.
01:08:49You've got one minute, James.
01:08:52Your precious contract wife or the woman who's loved you all alone.
01:08:56Victoria.
01:09:00Victoria.
01:09:03Why are you doing this?
01:09:05You're risking your own life.
01:09:08You just never believed that I truly loved you, right?
01:09:12I won't even have a life after tonight.
01:09:14But before anything happens, I'll get what I want.
01:09:25Please, put the gun down.
01:09:28You don't want to end up like this.
01:09:31Mia is the only one in love.
01:09:33Hey, it's over now.
01:09:50You're safe.
01:09:52I was so scared, James.
01:09:55I thought I'd never see you again.
01:09:58I know.
01:10:00I was scared too.
01:10:01But here we are.
01:10:05And I'll always protect you.
01:10:07You mean the world to me.
01:10:10I love you, James.
01:10:12I love you too.
01:10:17Why?
01:10:19Why did you betray me?
01:10:21Mia.
01:10:23I never wanted to hurt you.
01:10:25That was all I want and the last control.
01:10:27I didn't know how to handle it, so I decided not to tell you and I'm so sorry.
01:10:35You should have trusted me, James.
01:10:38I'm the kind of woman you can fight with.
01:10:43Fight with.
01:10:45Mia.
01:10:47Mia.
01:10:49Are you okay?
01:10:51You scared the hell out of me.
01:10:53It's okay.
01:10:54I feel better now.
01:10:55I'm sorry to have scared you.
01:10:56I guess tonight's events took a lot out of me.
01:11:09I'm so sorry for everything that has happened.
01:11:10I love you.
01:11:12I'm so sorry for everything that has happened.
01:11:15I love you.
01:11:17And I guess carrying a baby also takes away from my strength.
01:11:22I'm so sorry for everything that has happened.
01:11:26I love you.
01:11:27I love you.
01:11:28I love you.
01:11:30And I guess carrying a baby also takes away from my strength.
01:11:39What?
01:11:41What did you just say?
01:11:42Well, I've been having some fainting incidents recently, so I went to the hospital by myself and it looks like in eight months you're going to become a dad.
01:12:03What?
01:12:05You're pregnant?
01:12:06Oh my God.
01:12:08I can't believe.
01:12:12I had no idea.
01:12:14You should have told me earlier.
01:12:16I can't believe we're becoming parents.
01:12:18This is the most exciting moment in my life.
01:12:21I knew you would be happy.
01:12:25James, with the baby coming and the incidents behind us, I think it's time we come clean to our parents.
01:12:34They deserve to know the truth.
01:12:37And we have to tell them they have a grandchild on the way.
01:12:42You're right, Mia.
01:12:44It's time to be honest with them.
01:12:51I'm so happy.
01:12:53You know, Mia, I was thinking I want a girl.
01:12:57She'll have your eyes and my smile.
01:12:59Oh, really?
01:13:00I'm imagining a boy with your intelligence and my sense of beauty.
01:13:07But as long as the little one is healthy, I'm satisfied.
01:13:12Never been more excited about the future.
01:13:15Me too, James.
01:13:17This journey, our journey, it's been a surprise in every sense of the word.
01:13:23Surprise can be a good thing, right?
01:13:25And maybe, just maybe, we'll have the best of both worlds.
01:13:28Breakfast in bed for my beautiful princess.
01:13:39Oh my god.
01:13:41Are you trying to spoil me?
01:13:43Maybe I am. You deserve it.
01:13:45This looks amazing. I love the nuggets.
01:13:48I believe in us, James.
01:13:53We've gone through a lot of challenges and come out even stronger.
01:13:59Tonight is the last step for us to become a real couple.
01:14:04I'm lucky to have you here by my side, Mia.
01:14:10It doesn't matter how angry they get upon hearing the news.
01:14:15We'll face it together.
01:14:22Mom, we need to tell you something about our marriage.
01:14:25Our marriage started with the live tune of all of you.
01:14:34And it was a business arrangement.
01:14:39But over time, we fell in love with each other.
01:14:45We want to make it real.
01:14:46And we'd like to have your blessing for real this time.
01:14:53Well, your marriage, contract or not, has looked pretty real to me from the very beginning.
01:15:02And I'm glad you guys are brave enough to admit the mistakes and go on with your real happy marriage life.
01:15:15Thank you for understanding, Mom.
01:15:20I'll always be there for her.
01:15:23And we have a new member coming to the family soon.
01:15:26We'll see you next time.
