00:00:00I just can't believe we did that.
00:00:07I...
00:00:09I can see you.
00:00:12Perhaps...
00:00:14this won't happen to me.
00:00:20I thought as much.
00:00:22It's me.
00:00:24The block, my dog.
00:00:26She would never find out.
00:00:29Now this is what we're talking about, James.
00:00:51Anyone here talking about James?
00:00:59It's time to tell the truth, don't you think?
00:01:10Please, put the gun down.
00:01:13You don't want to end up like this.
00:01:16Mia is the only one in love.
00:01:19No, it's all going down.
00:01:20Come on.
00:01:21No.
00:01:22No.
00:01:23No.
00:01:24No.
00:01:25No.
00:01:26No.
00:01:27No.
00:01:28No.
00:01:29No.
00:01:31No.
00:01:32I don't want to end up like this.
00:01:58Mia is the only one in love.
00:02:02My family wants to plan my entire life.
00:02:20I'm James.
00:02:22James Turner, by the way.
00:02:25I'm Mia.
00:02:26Pleasure to meet you.
00:02:27It's our endless battle.
00:02:36It's my marriage suffocating.
00:02:49James, right?
00:02:51Fancy seeing you here again.
00:02:53Mia, you must be Faith.
00:02:55Uh, or you just come here a little too often.
00:03:02Wanna talk?
00:03:07Every single day to see if I'm bringing someone home for Thanksgiving dinner.
00:03:13What was your response?
00:03:14Um, I said yes, just to stop her calls, but I don't think there's anyone.
00:03:21You?
00:03:23My parents are obsessed...
00:03:25Family wants to plan my entire life.
00:03:32I'm James.
00:03:34James Turner, by the way.
00:03:35Mia, I've been thinking, why don't we help you with our endless battle?
00:03:51It's my...
00:03:54What do you mean?
00:03:58Maybe we can do the plus...
00:04:01James, right?
00:04:12Fancy seeing you here again.
00:04:14Mia, you must be Faith.
00:04:16Uh, or you just come here a little too late.
00:04:19Right till Thanksgiving.
00:04:19Hey, boyfriend.
00:04:23Why don't you introduce yourself more to me?
00:04:26Well, I own...
00:04:28How are things going on your end?
00:04:32My mom calls me every single day to see if I'm bringing someone home for Thanksgiving dinner.
00:04:40But you've probably seen a lot of my work around Manhattan already.
00:04:44Wait, are you Mia Davis?
00:04:47That Mia Davis?
00:04:48But, I don't think there's anyone.
00:04:51You?
00:04:53My parents are obsessed with my kids.
00:04:56Even dolls still sing.
00:04:58Splash cookies.
00:05:02I assure you, we are doing everything we can.
00:05:05I trust you because you are the best I've got.
00:05:07We won't let you down.
00:05:18I've been thinking, why don't we help each other out?
00:05:31What do you mean?
00:05:46How about a drink to unwind later?
00:05:48Let me check.
00:05:52Yeah, I can really use that.
00:05:54I'll meet you at the same bar.
00:05:55And we can be free for a long time.
00:06:08It's not what I usually do, but maybe it's exactly what I need right now.
00:06:13This night is just getting more interesting.
00:06:17Sounds like the craziest night I've ever had.
00:06:20Not yet.
00:06:21Wait till Thanksgiving.
00:06:22Okay, boyfriend, why don't you introduce yourself more to me?
00:06:28Well, I own a real estate company.
00:06:32We work with many partners on their...
00:06:34Pleasure to meet you, Mrs. Davis.
00:06:35Mia's told you so much about it.
00:06:36Please, call me Maria.
00:06:38Call her name.
00:06:40Help herself with some cookies.
00:06:42Before I finish dressing with working.
00:06:47So far, so good.
00:06:49Let's keep it up.
00:06:51I'm the gallery owner.
00:06:53Not to show off, but you've probably seen a lot of my work around Manhattan.
00:06:57You too.
00:06:58I feel like we're a real couple.
00:07:02So, you two.
00:07:05Tell me how you met.
00:07:08Of course.
00:07:10It was a charming little buffet on the 3rd Avenue.
00:07:13You know, I was sitting alone, reading a chat for each of you idiots.
00:07:17And you resist striking out the conversation.
00:07:20Oh, how I met you.
00:07:23I'm so happy you guys, you met each other.
00:07:27It's been too long for me to talk to someone so deeply.
00:07:32I assure you, we are doing everything we can.
00:07:37I trust you because you are the best I've got.
00:07:40We won't let you down.
00:07:42ποι, your mom's here, what do we do?
00:07:52Quick, come in here.
00:07:55Come in.
00:07:57Okay. Come in.
00:08:05Good morning, lovebirds. I can see you had a lovely night.
00:08:09Stop it, Mom. You're making it awkward.
00:08:13Look at you. All glowing.
00:08:17I'll do everything for my princess.
00:08:21Okay, I think the couple needs their alone time now.
00:08:25Okay, okay. Just don't take too long.
00:08:29How did you have time to call me today?
00:08:33Is this a bad time? You sound like you've had a rough day.
00:08:37I have to say it was quite a play in your house.
00:08:41It was perfect. They all bought it.
00:08:45How about a drink to unwind later?
00:08:49Let me check.
00:08:51So, has it been easier for you with your parents since our last visit?
00:08:57They just won't let the topic off you.
00:08:59Same here.
00:09:01Same here.
00:09:07Knowing my mom, she'll definitely want you to stay over.
00:09:11So, we'll probably spend...
00:09:17You know, James, it's nice like these that...
00:09:21Sounds like a plan.
00:09:31Here we go, James.
00:09:33Remember, we're a couple deeply in love.
00:09:37Got it.
00:09:39You might help both of us.
00:09:43I'm all ears.
00:09:45Thinking...
00:09:47What if we turn the tables on our families?
00:09:51Thinking...
00:09:53What if we turn the tables on our families?
00:09:55Thinking...
00:09:57What if we turn the tables on our families?
00:09:59Please...
00:10:00Call me Maria.
00:10:01Become a name.
00:10:02Help yourself with some cookies.
00:10:03Before I finish dressing the turkey.
00:10:04So far...
00:10:05What do we contract with?
00:10:06Maybe separate bedrooms?
00:10:07Financial terms and so on?
00:10:08Oh.
00:10:09No feelings should be included.
00:10:10This is huge.
00:10:11I need to think about it.
00:10:12What do we do?
00:10:13What do we do?
00:10:14What do we do?
00:10:15What do we do?
00:10:16What do we do?
00:10:17What do we do?
00:10:18What do we do?
00:10:19What do we do?
00:10:20What do we do?
00:10:21What do we do?
00:10:22What do we do?
00:10:23What do we do?
00:10:24What do we do?
00:10:25What do we do?
00:10:26What do we do?
00:10:27What do we do?
00:10:29What do we do?
00:10:30I don't think about it.
00:10:31I know...
00:10:33It's not something to deal with a person community...
00:10:34Me too.
00:10:35I feel like...
00:10:36We're a real couple...
00:10:37So...
00:10:38... των lives without their interference.
00:10:40It's the perfect solution to our current dilemma.
00:10:44It's just...
00:10:46...like I said, love...
00:10:50It was a charming little cafe on the 3rd Avenue
00:10:51on New overlap sitting alone reading so...
00:10:54It was natural here.
00:10:56Get it, Mia, I do.
00:10:58But sometimes life doesn't follow our script.
00:11:01And we need to adapt to that.
00:11:03Our life won't change a bit.
00:11:05Just more freedom with this contract.
00:11:07But what about the no-emotions term?
00:11:11Should we really...
00:11:13It's been too long for me to walk with someone so deeply.
00:11:22You do make a good point.
00:11:25I do want to take control over my own destiny again.
00:11:30But we need to set boundaries.
00:11:34Conditions.
00:11:35We'll stick with friendship.
00:11:37Contractual partners.
00:11:39Agreed, Mia.
00:11:41I'll write the legal contract,
00:11:43and we should both be clear about all this.
00:11:48Mia, your mom's here.
00:11:50What do we do?
00:11:52Quick, come in here.
00:11:57Make it done tomorrow.
00:11:58While our squad will take care of everything.
00:12:02Deal.
00:12:03I can't believe we're actually doing this.
00:12:16Yeah, we've got that formula.
00:12:20Let's go through this contract together.
00:12:24Okay.
00:12:25Separate bedrooms.
00:12:26Uh...
00:12:27Okay, um...
00:12:28I think the couple needs their alone time now.
00:12:30Okay, okay.
00:12:31Just don't take too long.
00:12:32And why don't you get back to the city today?
00:12:34I have to say it was quite a play in your house.
00:12:35It was perfect.
00:12:36They...
00:12:37They...
00:12:38I still can't believe we did that.
00:12:39I still can't believe we did that.
00:12:40Okay, okay.
00:12:41Just don't take too long.
00:12:42And why don't you get back to the city today?
00:12:43Okay, okay.
00:12:44Just don't take too long.
00:12:45And why don't you get back to the city today?
00:12:46I have to say it was quite a play in your house.
00:12:51I have to say it was quite a play in your house.
00:12:58It was perfect.
00:12:59They...
00:13:00I still can't believe we did that.
00:13:06So, I was about to jump out when I heard that knock.
00:13:12But we made it.
00:13:14Well, it's a lot to get done just to prove we're getting married.
00:13:20Yes, then we'll plan a wedding so everyone will buy it.
00:13:24They just won't let the top pick off you.
00:13:26Same here.
00:13:27But now, my mom won't stop asking me about the...
00:13:38Did you turn the camera on?
00:13:41Yeah.
00:13:42It's working.
00:13:47Mia...
00:13:50You know, James, it's nice like these that...
00:14:00I know there's beauty in commitment, but...
00:14:11Shouldn't it be our own life choice to make?
00:14:14I can't believe we just did that.
00:14:22It's all part of that.
00:14:33All of my freedoms?
00:14:34No, thank you.
00:14:35A couple in front of everyone.
00:14:44Of course.
00:14:45Not mistake is allowed tonight.
00:14:47It might help both of us.
00:14:49I'm all ears.
00:14:51I'm thinking.
00:14:52What if we turn the tables on our families?
00:15:01Another successful play.
00:15:07It's getting harder for me to tell between no...
00:15:11Please elaborate.
00:15:12What if we consider a contract marriage?
00:15:18A contract marriage?
00:15:20Yeah.
00:15:22Let's get some rest.
00:15:24Good night.
00:15:25Good night.
00:15:26Good night.
00:15:30A contract with?
00:15:31Maybe separate bedrooms?
00:15:33Financial terms and so on?
00:15:35Oh.
00:15:40Mia.
00:15:41Are you okay?
00:15:44Please.
00:15:45About it.
00:15:46I know.
00:15:47It's not something to deal with the person of the mutual support.
00:15:52But think about this.
00:15:54The contract will satisfy our parents' expectations.
00:15:58So we can take control of our own lives without their interference.
00:16:02It's...
00:16:04I saw their faces.
00:16:06They believed in us.
00:16:08It was all a huge lie.
00:16:11I can't imagine what would happen if they found out the truth.
00:16:14It's not the truth.
00:16:16It's not easy for me either.
00:16:19But we have to hang in there.
00:16:21We can't let them down right now.
00:16:40I just wish it didn't have to be like this.
00:16:44I wish that too yet.
00:16:45But I promise.
00:16:46We can't get through it.
00:16:48I promise.
00:16:57It's necessary.
00:16:59We need to avoid the situation of falling in love with each other.
00:17:02If we'll make things difficult.
00:17:04You do make a good point.
00:17:07I do want to take control over my own destiny again.
00:17:13But we need to set boundaries.
00:17:18Conditions.
00:17:20We'll stick with friendship.
00:17:22Contractual partners.
00:17:24Agreed, Nia.
00:17:26I'll write the legal contract.
00:17:28And we should both be clear about all of the terms.
00:17:31Oh, and one more thing, James.
00:17:33We need to keep our personal lives separate from all of this.
00:17:37We both continue to pursue our goals, passions, and relationships.
00:17:41Absolutely.
00:17:44Our contract won't affect any of our lives.
00:17:47We can make it done tomorrow.
00:17:49While our squad will take care of everything.
00:17:51Deal.
00:17:53Deal.
00:18:08I can't believe we're actually doing this.
00:18:12Yeah.
00:18:13We've got that formula.
00:18:17Let's go through this country.
00:18:18Is there any candle?
00:18:22No.
00:18:25James.
00:18:27Bedrooms.
00:18:30No feelings clause.
00:18:49Hello?
00:18:51I hope you enjoyed the champagne I sent you.
00:18:53A gift to celebrate your fake wedding.
00:19:04Someone knows our secret.
00:19:07What should we do?
00:19:20I just can't believe we did that.
00:19:29So, what's next?
00:19:31We'll tell our parents and make it official.
00:19:34I'll propose to you in your apartment and send pictures to our families.
00:19:39Oh.
00:19:41It's a lot to get done just to prove-
00:19:43I'm glad I met a real gentleman.
00:19:45It's all part of the plan.
00:19:51It's all part of the plan.
00:19:53I really want to get this out of my head.
00:19:56Can we just get it over with so we can move on with our lives?
00:19:59A bloody reality.
00:20:03A bloody reality.
00:20:05But, I still like it.
00:20:08It's our story.
00:20:09It's our story.
00:20:23Mia.
00:20:24There is something I'm going to ask you tonight.
00:20:26Yes?
00:20:31Mia.
00:20:33Will you marry me?
00:20:34Oh my god, James.
00:20:35Yes!
00:20:36There is no signal.
00:20:48We could be trapped in here for hours.
00:20:52We won't.
00:20:54Someone will notice the elevator went wrong and come to fix them.
00:21:07I can't believe we just did that.
00:21:13It's all part of the plan.
00:21:16Well...
00:21:18At least it's a short break from our complex life.
00:21:22You always find a way to be positive, don't you?
00:21:25James, what if people find out about our contract marriage?
00:21:34They'd be so disappointed.
00:21:37We are doing everything we can.
00:21:40So far, we did good.
00:21:42Everyone is happy.
00:21:45I just think about how far we've come.
00:21:48Since the day we met, there was the gala, the proposal, the wedding.
00:21:55And now...
00:21:56Blackmail?
00:21:58It's like an endless spy game.
00:22:01I know.
00:22:03But we're in this together.
00:22:05We chose this to take control of our life.
00:22:08And now we're...
00:22:15I'm so relieved.
00:22:17Maybe it's because...
00:22:19I'm not alone anymore.
00:22:22I know.
00:22:23I was rushed to my friends after a bed day.
00:22:26And here I am.
00:22:27With a dearest friend.
00:22:29And now maybe I can finally get some space for my mom.
00:22:33All this and the truth.
00:22:35I know, but...
00:22:37We have to stay firm.
00:22:40Focus on the bigger picture.
00:22:42Neither of us wants a real marriage right now.
00:22:45And then she can make fun of you some more.
00:22:47I'm sexy now.
00:22:48Okay.
00:23:01Maybe we should talk about what just happened?
00:23:05The moment was...
00:23:07I enjoyed it.
00:23:08There's something I never thought I would say.
00:23:11But...
00:23:13I...
00:23:14...
00:23:15...
00:23:16...
00:23:18...
00:23:19...
00:23:20...
00:23:21Mia, are you okay?
00:23:26Please, open up. Talk to me.
00:23:30I actually feel the exact same way.
00:23:36I can't stop thinking about you all the time.
00:23:39But everyone's faces, they were so happy and blessed us with their whole...
00:23:46Let's tell everyone the truth. I'm sure that wouldn't stand.
00:23:49Maybe mad at first, but they will be happy for us in the end.
00:23:53Our families will be shocked when they find out.
00:23:56I know, Mia, but it's time to set things right. It should be our priority right now.
00:24:03I saw their faces. They believed in us.
00:24:07It was all...
00:24:11James, our parents aside, I'm really worried about that blackmail that we received at the bar.
00:24:18Who would be so interested in our personal matters?
00:24:23Mia, I have no idea.
00:24:25But I hired an investigator. Hope we can't let them down right now.
00:24:29And yet, I feel that life is worse under the pretense.
00:24:30We will get ourselves out of this situation.
00:24:34We will find the right time to tell everyone the truth to our marriage. And we for sure...
00:24:36We will get ourselves out of this situation. We will find the right time to tell everyone the truth to our marriage. And we for sure...
00:24:40...
00:24:50...
00:25:02Who's there?
00:25:28Mia, we agreed.
00:25:38What do you want from me?
00:25:40What do you want from me?
00:25:48I know...
00:25:49...
00:25:50...
00:25:51...
00:25:52...
00:25:53...

00:28:01...
00:28:02Mark, please, I need your help.
00:28:09Sorry.
00:28:16Hello?
00:28:17I hope you enjoyed the champagne I sent you, a gift to you.
00:28:21The ship has also come to an end.
00:28:32What should we do?
00:28:45CPM bank. Mr. Turner, how can we help you today?
00:28:50I have a certificate of deposit with your bank. I want to cash it out immediately.
00:29:02Can you get money for me in an hour? It's for an urgent matter.
00:29:08Sure.
00:29:09I've been thinking about the day we met.
00:29:12Feels like...
00:29:15Great.
00:29:24And I'm glad that I met you. You're such a special woman, and I've never met anyone like you before.
00:29:30Yes. Give me the location.
00:29:48I can't thank you enough for saving my life, James.
00:29:52Do anything to keep you safe. We're in this together.
00:29:55Even though it's a dramatic fake wedding, I'm happy to have you here with me.
00:30:02It's not a fairy tale. It's a bloody reality. But I still like it. It's our story.
00:30:23Good detective. We appreciate your efforts.
00:30:32Lips.
00:30:33It's been a while since we had a busy room like this.
00:30:44It's been a while since we had a pissy moon like this.
00:31:05Yeah.
00:31:06It's nice to get a break from all the chaos.
00:31:14Mia!
00:31:23There's no signal.
00:31:25We could be trapped in here for hours.
00:31:28They love my pitch.
00:31:30Oh my God, James, that's amazing.
00:31:33I'm going to call my employees to announce this news.
00:31:37Yes, we just need to be patient.
00:31:39Will you pick me up later for our little celebration?
00:31:46Absolutely.
00:31:47I'll meet you at home after work.
00:32:09Yes, I need you to gather the people online for a meeting.
00:32:14We got that project and we need to present it to the client this afternoon.
00:32:18Wow, that's fantastic.
00:32:20I will gather them.
00:32:21What if people find out about our contract marriage?
00:32:41They'd be so disappointed.
00:32:43Curious.
00:32:43Why you guys chose us out of all the companies in the world?
00:32:47Our president insisted you were the perfect fit.
00:32:50But she said you're an old friend.
00:32:54An old friend?
00:32:56I'm not sure I know who it could be.
00:33:00You'll find out soon enough, James.
00:33:03For now, focus on getting the job done.
00:33:06What if you are here?
00:33:28What's wrong, James?
00:33:46Who could that be?
00:33:49I don't know.
00:33:52But we are going to find out soon.
00:33:58Samantha, have you found anything?
00:34:06I have been waiting ages to hear from you.
00:34:08Hope you have news that I want to hear.
00:34:11James, we've made some significant progress.
00:34:15I think we are closed on covering who has been trying to blackmail you and Mia.
00:34:20I'm only yours.
00:34:22Details, please.
00:34:23We managed to trace the source of the blackmail.
00:34:26At times, we found a connection to an individual named Richard Kingsley.
00:34:31Richard Kingsley?
00:34:32Never heard that name.
00:34:33And why would he do this?
00:34:35We're still walking on that part.
00:34:38We'll gather more evidence and get to the bottom of this.
00:34:41Thank you, Samantha.
00:34:43Keep me posted on any updates.
00:34:45I want to know everything about Richard Kingsley and his motives.
00:34:48Of course.
00:34:48Maybe we should talk about what just happened.
00:35:02The moment was...
00:35:04I enjoyed it.
00:35:06There is something I never thought I would say.
00:35:08But it's not what we expected.
00:35:12I thought we got into this to avoid marriage.
00:35:14Mia, I have to tell you.
00:35:17I don't want to lie to myself or to you, a person behind all this.
00:35:20I won't let him walk in one piece after what he has done.
00:35:24Wow.
00:35:30You know, it's moments like these that really make me appreciate having you in my life, James.
00:35:36Contract or not.
00:35:38I feel the same way, Mia.
00:35:40I won't ever want to lose you.
00:35:45I've been working on this for a few weeks.
00:35:48It may not be to everyone's taste, but it means a lot to me.
00:35:55I can't stop thinking about you all the time.
00:35:59Although we got into this relation...
00:36:01James, I trust that they will be happy for us in the end.
00:36:21Her families will be shocked when they find out.
00:36:24I know, Mia, but it's time to set things right.
00:36:27It should be our priority right now.
00:36:29Yes.
00:36:31James.
00:36:51James.
00:36:51Who would be so interested in our personal matters?
00:36:56Mia, I have no idea.
00:36:58But I hired an investigator.
00:37:00Hope she can bring me some valuable information.
00:37:04I have a feeling someone is watching us from the dark.
00:37:09Maybe you can catch up with each other.
00:37:12It's a great opportunity.
00:37:14She surely is very excited about this.
00:37:16She was so interested in her.
00:37:18I have a feeling she can.
00:37:19I guess she could breathe.
00:37:39You are gone.
00:37:40Sometimes you love hosts.
00:37:41Maybe she poo to them.
00:37:42But look, she can imagine.
00:37:44I'm James Turner, you're...
00:37:51Jimmy, don't you remember me?
00:37:59Catch the person hunting us.
00:38:05You know my bell?
00:38:34You know my bell, next year is going to be a whole new world to me.
00:38:38I know, babe.
00:38:40I can't believe you're graduating.
00:38:43I'm day flying.
00:38:44Life after college, it's a bit scary, but I'm so excited.
00:38:50I want to work in real estate.
00:38:53Anyone here?
00:38:55What do you want from me?
00:39:04You're exactly where I want you to be at.
00:39:07Where am I?
00:39:18Please, just tell me what you want from me.
00:39:21Don't worry, you will know what we want soon enough.
00:39:24I just...
00:39:25I'm so sorry I have to find out like this, but Madel and I have been together for a while now.
00:39:30...to a chair.
00:39:34I will cooperate.
00:39:36If it is money, I can give it to you.
00:39:39Just let me go.
00:39:42Fine.
00:39:44What are you playing here?
00:39:47What's up with all the charade?
00:39:51For all time's sake, you cheated on me with my best friend.
00:40:05What do you want?
00:40:07People change, James.
00:40:11Hello?
00:40:12Mr. Turner, it's time for you to decide.
00:40:15Maya's life depends on you.
00:40:17Don't bother.
00:40:18You won't recognize who I am.
00:40:22I helped you got this project.
00:40:24I've missed you, James.
00:40:26Missed us.
00:40:28We should be together.
00:40:30Live.
00:40:31Who are you?
00:40:32And what do you want?
00:40:33That is not a question for me to answer.
00:40:35Just do as I said.
00:40:37I can't arrange that much money in such a short time.
00:40:40That's not my concern.
00:40:42Always been a challenge, James.
00:40:44This is not how I imaged our reunion.
00:40:47If you come here to talk about the project, let's get to it.
00:40:50Otherwise...
00:40:51It's okay, let me talk to you.
00:40:52That won't be happening.
00:40:54I swear, if you dare to touch her...
00:40:57Let's get professional.
00:40:59James, the reason I chose you is not only because of our past.
00:41:04I trust you on your...
00:41:12I don't know what to do, Scott.
00:41:13They're asking for 5 millions in 24 hours.
00:41:15I can't lose her.
00:41:17We'll figure it out, James.
00:41:19I'll do everything that I can.
00:41:21I can't lose me.
00:41:24Agree, James.
00:41:25We'll keep it strictly professional.
00:41:29Scott.
00:41:30You won't believe what just happened.
00:41:31What's the matter?
00:41:33Scott.
00:41:34You won't believe what just happened.
00:41:35What's the matter?
00:41:39Wait.
00:41:40Ma'belle?
00:41:41You're actually...
00:41:42Wait.
00:41:43Ma'belle?
00:41:44You're actually...
00:41:45What's the matter?
00:41:46Ma'belle?
00:41:47You haven't seen her in years, right?
00:41:49That's the one.
00:41:50She's now going by Victoria and she's the president of this...
00:41:53Someone has been stalking us.
00:41:54They know about the contract marriage and threaten to expose us.
00:42:23expose us. Whatever it takes, I will hunt this person down.
00:42:31Mark, please, I need your help. Mia's life is in danger.
00:42:35I wish I could.
00:42:37Nothing is ever clear about her. I don't want Mia to worry about this.
00:42:41She's working on an important artwork, and I promised I'll protect her.
00:42:45This is in such a short time.
00:42:47Save it, Mark. When it comes to your turn, I dropped a lot of things to help.
00:42:53I don't want to be able to catch this one.
00:42:55I don't want to be able to catch this one.
00:43:15My baby will catch this one.
00:43:23Thank you for calling.
00:43:25If you want to talk things through, or need some help, I'm here.
00:43:31Thank you, Mia.
00:43:32We focus on the certificate of deposit with your bank.
00:43:35I want to cash it out immediately.
00:43:37I understand the urgency.
00:43:39Please give us a moment.
00:43:41Victoria.
00:43:47What an unexpected surprise.
00:43:49I don't recall any business meeting with you today.
00:43:55I'm just visiting an old friend.
00:43:59I've moved on with my life.
00:44:01I have Mia, and she means everything to me.
00:44:03Oh, please, James.
00:44:05You wouldn't let a college flinch close your judgement after all these years.
00:44:11Right?
00:44:13Spare me the details.
00:44:15You betrayed me as my own roommate.
00:44:17Who did you expect me to do, James?
00:44:21You were leaving college.
00:44:23And I wouldn't survive alone with a blood-sucking family.
00:44:27I need someone to back me up.
00:44:29I was a child.
00:44:31I don't care about your reasons anymore, Victoria.
00:44:35I got over you a long time ago.
00:44:38So cut wherever you're playing here.
00:44:42Come back here, dummy.
00:44:45I don't ever want to meet you again outside of our normal business arrangements.
00:44:55James.
00:44:56I never said I wanted to be your wife.
00:44:59I just wanted to be in your life.
00:45:04And...
00:45:06I can't thank you enough for saving my life, James.
00:45:10Do anything to keep you safe.
00:45:12We're in this together.
00:45:17I thought I'd never see you again.
00:45:20I swear to you.
00:45:22I'll protect you with my life.
00:45:29I swear to the Lord.
00:45:32My wife is here.
00:45:35I knew her.
00:45:36I asked you...
00:45:38Sorry.
00:45:44I was about to hear some of my own problems.
00:45:46Our main focus is on tracking down the kidnappers.
00:45:49And bringing them to justice.
00:45:50bringing them to justice.
00:45:54Thank you, detective. We appreciate your efforts.
00:46:02I'm sorry.
00:46:06Everything's fine, you see?
00:46:09Believe me.
00:46:12I'm fine.
00:46:14We'll get through this.
00:46:16You.
00:46:17Let me make sure you're comfortable.
00:46:23Doria, what are you doing?
00:46:40Your love, and even your soul.
00:46:47Stop it.
00:46:49I'm... I'm married.
00:46:51I don't mind.
00:46:53Or maybe it will be sex you want even more.
00:47:00You enjoy it, don't you?
00:47:03I know exactly how to please you.
00:47:05Please, you.
00:47:07You...
00:47:09I can do it, darling.
00:47:11Oh, come on, darling.
00:47:13We all know about your little contract.
00:47:16You won't believe this.
00:47:19What is it?
00:47:21The company chose us to partner on a luxury project.
00:47:25They love my pitch.
00:47:26Oh my god, James, that's amazing.
00:47:30I'm gonna call my employees to announce this news.
00:47:35And... an after party later?
00:47:38You know me too well.
00:47:42Will you pick me up later for our little celebration?
00:47:45Absolutely. I'll meet you at home after work.
00:47:47I'll meet you at home after work.
00:47:48You're playing with fire. I won't be blackmailed or manipulated. Delete them. Now!
00:48:14Delete them. Now!
00:48:21They're just no fun, James.
00:48:28I want you to step away from my life. This can't happen again.
00:48:33We'll see about that.
00:48:44Oh, Jimmy, Jimmy.
00:48:50You can never run away from me.
00:48:54I'm on board to execute this project.
00:48:58Before I finish, I'm just curious.
00:49:01Why you guys chose us out of all the companies in the world?
00:49:05Our president insisted you were the perfect fit.
00:49:08She said you're an old friend.
00:49:11An old friend?
00:49:14I'm not sure I know who it could be.
00:49:18You'll find out soon enough, James.
00:49:21For now, focus on getting the job done.
00:49:23Also my current business partner.
00:49:33And what about this?
00:49:35Is this part of your business?
00:49:36We...
00:49:37We had a businessman. She set me up. I made a mistake. But it's not how it looks like. I love you. And I don't want her to ruin us.
00:49:57Tell me the truth, James. What happened that night?
00:50:10What's wrong, James?
00:50:13Too drunk and also confused.
00:50:15I don't know if I can trust you anymore, James.
00:50:23I don't know.
00:50:25But we are going to find out soon.
00:50:34Please, just...
00:50:37Leave me alone.
00:50:45We've made some significant progress.
00:50:53I think we are close to uncovering who has been trying to blackmail you.
00:50:58...investigation.
00:51:00But I've uncovered some crucial information, Liz, on Richard Kingsley.
00:51:04I'm listening.
00:51:06The source of the blackmail attempts we found a connection to an individual named Richard Kingsley.
00:51:12Richard Kingsley? Never heard that name. And why would he do this?
00:51:17We're still walking and keep a low profile, which made it challenging to track him.
00:51:23But we've identified his patterns and his current location.
00:51:27Keep me posted on any updates. I want to know everything about Richard Kingsley and his motives.
00:51:32Of course, you and me deserve peace, James. I will continue to monitor the situation.
00:51:38But please take legal action to protect yourself.
00:51:43I'll take care of her. It's time for me to take control.
00:51:46I received these pictures of you in the apartment. I tried to call you many times and you didn't answer.
00:52:03Like you would never think of such a deliberate plan. If you don't tell the truth, I will call the cops on you.
00:52:08Fine. Fine. It was Victoria.
00:52:14Victoria. How did she convince you to do this?
00:52:21She told me about your contract marriage.
00:52:24She told me you don't even care about Mia.
00:52:28She promised to help me get Mia back after she gets you back.
00:52:31You were manipulated, Richard. You're such a clown. In one piece. After what he has done.
00:52:41You know, it's moments like these that really make me appreciate having you in my life, James. Contract or not.
00:52:54Contract or not.
00:52:56I feel the same way, Mia. I won't ever want to lose you.
00:53:03I've been working on this for a few weeks. It may not be to everyone's taste, but it means a lot to me.
00:53:13It's wonderful. You're really talented.
00:53:16Thank you so much for your support. It means the world to me.
00:53:35Hello?
00:53:37James, I trust you are well. I wanted to inform you that there is an urgent meeting scheduled regarding the latest...
00:53:44You get which one?
00:54:01What?
00:54:07Hello?
00:54:11Who's there?
00:54:12And we can go over all the details.
00:54:15Thank you for your recognition. I'm more than happy to lead this project to our huge success.
00:54:19It's your little lesson. See? He cried. You would never be good enough for James.
00:54:27He'll never get away with this. James wants nothing to do with you. We'll see about that.
00:54:33You can't control other people's feelings. You're such a bunny.
00:54:34Baby Jamie wanted to have a bet. Why else he would choose you over me?
00:54:35What we have is real.
00:54:36What we have is real. And you?
00:54:37You're such a bunny.
00:54:38Baby Jamie wanted to have a bet. Why else would he choose you over me?
00:54:42What we have is real. And you need to face the truth.
00:54:43Listen to me carefully, bunny.
00:54:44If you truly care for James, you will stay away from me.
00:54:45If you truly care for James, you will stay away from me.
00:54:46You have nothing to do with you. We'll see about that.
00:54:47You can't control other people's feelings.
00:54:51You're such a bunny.
00:54:52Baby Jamie wanted to have a bet. Why else would he choose you over me?
00:55:01What we have is real. And you need to face the truth.
00:55:07Listen to me carefully, bunny. If you truly care for James, you will stay away from me.
00:55:14It's nothing you go sh-
00:55:15Maybe you can catch up with each other. It's a great opportunity.
00:55:19She surely is very excited.
00:55:21Don't be too confident. Just yet.
00:55:26The woman who's loved you all alone.
00:55:50Victoria, why are you doing this? You're risking your own life.
00:56:02You just never believed that I truly loved you, right?
00:56:06Jimmy, don't you remember me?
00:56:18Listen, Mia is the only one in love.
00:56:23This will help you to remember me.
00:56:33I felt as much. It's me. Your beloved Mabel.
00:56:39What the?
00:56:41What the?
00:56:43What the?
00:56:53Why?
00:56:55Why did you betray me?
00:56:57I never wanted to hurt you.
00:56:59I never wanted to hurt you.
00:57:09You know Mabel, next year is going to be a-
00:57:12Okay.
00:57:13I'm fine.
00:57:14I'm-
00:57:16Mia?
00:57:17Mia?
00:57:22I'm day flying.
00:57:23Life after college.
00:57:25It's a bit scary.
00:57:26But I'm so excited.
00:57:32Are you okay?
00:57:34You scared the hell out of me.
00:57:36It's okay.
00:57:37It's okay.
00:57:38I feel better now.
00:57:39I'm sorry to have scared you.
00:57:42I guess-
00:57:47I can't wait to graduate so we can get married.
00:57:50Yeah.
00:57:51I love you.
00:57:55And I guess-
00:57:57Carrying a baby also takes away from my strength.
00:58:04What?
00:58:06What did you just say?
00:58:08Well-
00:58:22What?
00:58:24You are pregnant?
00:58:27Oh my god!
00:58:29I can't believe!
00:58:31I had no idea!
00:58:33You should have told me earlier.
00:58:34I can't believe we are becoming parents!
00:58:37This is the most exciting moment in my life!
00:58:40I knew you would be happy.
00:58:43James, with the baby coming, and the incidents behind us-
00:58:48Ah!
00:58:49Ah!
00:58:55Mabel?
00:58:56What are you doing here?
00:58:58It's Victoria.
00:59:00And...
00:59:02For business, of course, darling.
00:59:07What are you playing here?
00:59:09What's up with all the charade?
00:59:10Let's say...
00:59:11Let's say...
00:59:13I wanted to see how have you been, James?
00:59:17Me too, James.
00:59:19This journey...
00:59:21Our journey...
00:59:23It's been a surprise in every sense of the word.
00:59:26Surprise can be a good thing.
00:59:27I mean...
00:59:28You're my best friend!
00:59:30What do you want?
00:59:32People change, James.
00:59:34And...
00:59:36I just can't let you out my mind.
00:59:39Are you trying to spoil me?
00:59:41Maybe I am.
00:59:42You deserve it.
00:59:44This looks amazing.
00:59:46I love the nuggets.
00:59:48A woman like me can get whatever I want with just a little trick.
00:59:53See?
00:59:55I helped you out this project.
00:59:58I've missed you, James.
01:00:00I mean...
01:00:02It doesn't matter how angry they get upon hearing the news.
01:00:07We'll face it together.
01:00:09Mom...
01:00:11We need to tell you something about our marriage.
01:00:14Okay.
01:00:16You have always been a challenge, James.
01:00:18This is not how I imagined our reunion.
01:00:20If you come here to talk about the project, let's get to it.
01:00:23Otherwise, you should leave.
01:00:24Don't be so harsh.
01:00:25You want business?
01:00:26We'll talk about business.
01:00:28Let's get professional.
01:00:30James.
01:00:32Hi, we.
01:00:33There's a lot.
01:00:34Thank you for understanding, Mom.
01:00:36I'm sorry.
01:00:38I'm sorry.
01:00:39I'm sorry.
01:00:40I'm sorry.
01:00:41I'm sorry.
01:00:42I'm sorry.
01:00:43I'm sorry.
01:00:44I'm sorry.
01:00:45I'm sorry.
01:00:46I'm sorry.
01:00:48I'm sorry.
01:00:49I'm sorry.
01:00:50I'm sorry.
01:00:52I'm sorry.
01:00:53You're standing, Mom.
01:00:56I'll always be there for her.
01:00:59And we have a new member come into the family soon.
01:01:04Against my principles, or the law.
01:01:08Agree, James.
01:01:10Work if it's strictly professional.
01:01:23Scott, he won't believe what just happened.
01:01:34What's the matter?
01:01:40What's my help on the project?
01:01:43I can't shake feeling that there's more to it.
01:01:47I think we have to wait for her more.
01:01:50I need to find out what's really going on, Philly.
01:01:53Nothing is ever clear about her.
01:01:55I don't want Riyadh to worry about this.
01:01:57She's working on an important...
01:01:59I'd find my best to find our victorious true intent.
01:02:02Thanks, man.
01:02:03What should I do without you?
01:02:11Are you okay? You seem a little bit off tonight.
01:02:16Sorry to make you...
01:02:17You threw a lot together.
01:02:18You don't need to hide anything from me.
01:02:20If you want to talk about something, we can figure it out together.
01:02:27Babe, it shouldn't worry you.
01:02:30I can handle it myself.
01:02:31Trust me.
01:02:32Okay.
01:02:33Just remember, I'm always here for you.
01:02:37If you want to talk things through or need some help, I'm here.
01:02:45Thank you, Mia.
01:02:46You focus on your beautiful project and leave everything else to me.
01:02:50James, we're one.
01:02:52There's nothing that we can't handle together.
01:03:01Hi, Jimmy.
01:03:02Why don't we call in a business meeting with you today?
01:03:09I'm just visiting an old friend.
01:03:13I've moved on with my life.
01:03:15I have Mia, and she means everything to me.
01:03:18Oh, please, James.
01:03:20You wouldn't let a college flinch close your judgment after all these years.
01:03:26Right?
01:03:27Spare me the details.
01:03:29You betrayed me as my own roommate.
01:03:32What did you expect me to do, James?
01:03:35Need someone to back me up.
01:03:37I was a child.

01:11:20Sissy.
01:11:22Well, 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.
01:11:43What? You're-
01:11:45You're-
01:11:49I'm so happy.
01:11:51You know, Mia, I was thinking, I want a girl. She'll have your eyes and my smile.
01:11:57Oh, really? I'm imagining a boy with your intelligence and my-
01:12:04Never been more excited about the future.
01:12:06Me too, James. This journey, our journey, it's been a surprise in every sense of the word.
01:12:14Surprise can be a good thing, right? And maybe, just maybe, we'll have the best of both worlds.
01:12:28I love the nuggets.
01:12:30I believe in us, James. Tonight is the last step for us to become a real couple.
01:12:40I'm lucky to have you here by my side, Mia. Doesn't matter how-
01:12:50Mom, we need to tie-
01:12:52Mom, we're going to start with a light to you all of you.
01:12:56And-
01:12:58It was a business arrangement. But, over time, we fell in love with each other. We want to make it real.
01:13:09And we'd like to have your blessing for real this time.
01:13:18I'll always be there for her. And we have a new-
01:13:21Bye-
