00:00:00Surrogacy, surrogacy.
00:00:02Harvard Business School, MBA, top of class.
00:00:06As for intimate matters,
00:00:11I can assure you performance has never been an issue.
00:00:15Three years I've loved him.
00:00:17Everyone tells me Ethan will never change.
00:00:19But they don't see the real Ethan.
00:00:22I know he loves me.
00:00:30Oh my god! Three years I've wasted on you!
00:00:36I'm not gonna let you take this from me too.
00:00:39I don't need a man to make my dreams come true.
00:00:41One appointment? One sperm donor?
00:00:44I can have a baby of my own.
00:00:49Understand this clearly.
00:00:51We'll be parents, nothing more.
00:00:53Surrogacy. Five generations of Crawford dignity.
00:01:02Destroyed by tabloid gossip.
00:01:05Adrian, I can make all of this disappear.
00:01:10You've got the couple, right? Until...
00:01:14All you have to do is remember who you really belong with.
00:01:18That's for every lie you just told.
00:01:21It's your fault!
00:01:22You really plan to get rid of him.
00:01:27Get up!
00:01:35Three years.
00:01:36Three years I've loved him.
00:01:39Everyone tells me Ethan will never change.
00:01:41That a man like him only loves himself.
00:01:46But they don't see the real Ethan.
00:01:48I know he loves me.
00:01:51Thank you so much.
00:01:52I really, really appreciate it.
00:01:55Tonight, it will be our big night.
00:01:58And I'll give him all of me.
00:02:01We'll make a beautiful baby together.
00:02:03A family of our own.
00:02:04A family of our own.
00:02:18I'm so sorry.
00:02:19I want to go.
00:02:20I'm so sorry.
00:02:22I'm so sorry.
00:02:27No.
00:02:29I'll give her a try.
00:02:31We'll make a new king, because...
00:02:33Wait a second.
00:02:34What are you doing?
00:02:35How do you do?
00:02:36What are you doing?
00:02:37What are you doing?
00:02:39What are you doing?
00:02:40How do you do?
00:02:41What are you doing?
00:02:42I'm so sorry.
00:02:43I'm so sorry.
00:02:44Oh, my God.
00:03:14Oh, my God.
00:03:35Voila, you're early.
00:03:39Why so shocked, babe?
00:03:40You're always talking about wanting to try new things.
00:03:44Come and join us.
00:03:53Three years.
00:03:54Three years I wasted on you!
00:03:57God, I'm such an idiot!
00:04:00To think I was going to have a baby with you!
00:04:05Baby?
00:04:07Sweetheart, you wouldn't even put out after three years and now you're thinking about playing mommy?
00:04:13Though, if you're finally ready to spread those legs...
00:04:18These lovely ladies can show you how it's done.
00:04:23Screw you!
00:04:25I'm not going to let you take this from me, too.
00:04:42You know what?
00:04:43I don't need a man to make my dreams come true.
00:04:46One appointment, one sperm donut.
00:04:48Now, I can have a baby of my own.
00:04:50Six months to produce an heir or I lose control of Crawford Industries to my nephew.
00:05:04Everything I've built over the last decade, gone.
00:05:07The surrogate candidates are all, for all the words, sir.
00:05:12Ivy League are educated.
00:05:13Impeccable health histories.
00:05:15I don't need their resumes, Thompson.
00:05:17I need someone who won't turn this into a media circus.
00:05:20Find me someone who knows your place and will disappear after delivery.
00:05:23I need someone who knows your place and will disappear after delivery.
00:05:53Miss, are you here for the interview?
00:06:10The interview?
00:06:12Yes, of course.
00:06:17Yes.
00:06:19Okay.
00:06:19Okay.
00:06:23Please, sit.
00:06:30Right, um, let's get started.
00:06:34Hey, um, education background.
00:06:38Excuse me?
00:06:40And I'm going to need a full medical history, specifically genetic disorders, to work out.
00:06:46Do you have any idea who I am?
00:07:01I'm just trying to be thorough.
00:07:03It's about creating a healthy baby, after all.
00:07:06I don't care if you're Brad Pitt.
00:07:15I need to know your reproductive history.
00:07:18So, sexual partners in the last six months?
00:07:22Mr. Crafton, I can show her out.
00:07:24Thompson, leave us.
00:07:30What are you doing?
00:07:32Making sure this interview is more thorough.
00:07:36Harvard Business School, MBA, top of class.
00:07:47No family history of genetic disorders.
00:07:49I work you out five times a week.
00:07:52As for intimate matters, I can assure you performance has never been an issue.
00:08:00Now Thompson is gone, are you comfortable to share yours?
00:08:07Um, yes.
00:08:08Of course.
00:08:10Uh, I'm perfectly healthy, too.
00:08:14No genetic disorders, and I get regular checkups.
00:08:18Um, I've even been taking prenatal vitamins.
00:08:21You really do seem like the perfect match.
00:08:27Good.
00:08:29Now, regarding compensation, what figure did you have in mind?
00:08:34Well, I was thinking around $800.
00:08:39$800.
00:08:41I expected the fee to be significantly higher.
00:08:44I know, I know it's not a lot of money, but considering the quality, um, I could, I could help, I can do paperwork, whatever.
00:08:55Topton, bring in the contracts.
00:09:05All of this?
00:09:07Seriously?
00:09:08Take your time to review, but the key point is after birth, the child stays with me.
00:09:15No contact.
00:09:17You want to keep my baby?
00:09:20Are you insane?
00:09:26That's standard procedure for surrogacy arrangements.
00:09:30Surrogacy?
00:09:31Surrogacy.
00:09:32The position you're interviewing for.
00:09:34Interview?
00:09:35I'm headed by sperm.
00:09:38You came to what?
00:09:39Uh, I thought you were a donor.
00:09:41That's why I was asking you all the questions about the history and stuff.
00:09:46I thought you were here to be my surrogate.
00:09:49Right.
00:09:49Um, well, I guess, I guess I've, um, made a mistake, so I'm just gonna go.
00:09:55Wait!
00:09:59A million dollars.
00:10:01For carrying my child.
00:10:02I want my own baby, Mr. Crawford, not somebody else's.
00:10:10Ah, you might need that.
00:10:12Clean this up.
00:10:22Bring in the next.
00:10:30Hello?
00:10:30Hello?
00:10:31Miss Reed, your father.
00:10:33You need to come now.
00:10:35Okay, I'm coming here.
00:10:36Doctor, how is he?
00:10:58How is my father?
00:10:58The cancer is spread aggressively without immediate treatment.
00:11:03Then, then do something.
00:11:05Save him.
00:11:07Is there, is there a treatment you can do?
00:11:09Uh, there is a new treatment.
00:11:11Okay, then, then let's do it.
00:11:13But maybe it's, uh, quite expensive.
00:11:15How much?
00:11:16Around one million dollars.
00:11:18A million dollars?
00:11:20Yes.
00:11:20Can I get a, a, a loan or something?
00:11:24Actually, this is a new technology.
00:11:27And there is no loan policy.
00:11:28Sorry.
00:11:28Sorry.
00:11:28Oh, my God.
00:11:58this is the last batch yes sir the blonde want to know about ring sizes and brunette
00:12:16asked about moving in and the redhead all of them want the crawford name
00:12:22no one's qualified she was refreshing no pretense no schemes but she wasn't even here for
00:12:35surrogacy sometimes the best candidate isn't looking for the job
00:12:39hello by the read i'm adrian crawford
00:12:55i've been thinking
00:13:07about yesterday i may have been a bit hasty you're reconsidering don't sound so smug about it i have
00:13:17my reasons as do i i'd like to propose a modification to the original terms what kind of modification
00:13:28joint custody you wouldn't be just carrying the child you'd be the baby's mother
00:13:33why would you agree to that you're honest direct no hidden agenda qualities i want in my child's
00:13:42mother so i'd really get to be a part of the baby's life yes but understand this clearly
00:13:48we'll be parents nothing more no romantic entanglements no emotional expectations

00:20:45Ah, my brother's mysterious fiancé.
00:20:50Mrs. Crawford.
00:20:51Catherine, please. We're family now. Supposedly.
00:20:56Helen, tea, please.
00:20:58Yes, Mrs. Crawford.
00:21:02So tell me, dear, how did you and Adrian meet exactly?
00:21:07Through mutual friends.
00:21:10Oh, really? Mutual friends.
00:21:16Dear, what friend of Adrian's would possibly move in your social circles?
00:21:23Unless this is more of a business arrangement?
00:21:26I'm sorry?
00:21:28Well, a girl of your position, surely some negotiation was involved?
00:21:34The only negotiation was whether I would take his last name or keep my own.
00:21:40Next weekend is our family dinner, and as Adrian's fiancé, your presence is required.
00:21:54I'd be honored.
00:21:55Perfect. I'm sure you can find something more appropriate to wear.
00:22:04You can go now.
00:22:05Excuse me, Mrs. Ray.
00:22:18I need to clean.
00:22:20Of course. Let me just...
00:22:21Yes.
00:22:21Is this what she's wearing to the family dinner?
00:22:30How creative.
00:22:32Must be hiding your family.
00:22:34Watching you chase after rich men.
00:22:38Let me help you with this.
00:22:39My friends!
00:22:41How clumsy of me.
00:22:43You did that on purpose.
00:22:45Do you think you can really marry Mr. Crawford?
00:22:48You're just some trash trying to climb the social ladder.
00:22:55Mr. Crawford, she just attacked me.
00:23:00I was trying to help with the...
00:23:02Get out!
00:23:03But I was just...
00:23:04One more word and you're fired.
00:23:07Get out!
00:23:12What happened?
00:23:16Nothing.
00:23:18I need some space.
00:23:19I want to stay in the guest room tonight.
00:23:21Lila, you don't have to do that.
00:23:22I need some space.
00:23:26You take the bed.
00:23:27I'll take the sofa.
00:23:28I miss you so much, Daddy.
00:23:32Don't worry about me, okay?
00:23:34As long as we can get you better,
00:23:37I won't let their words get to me.
00:23:38I promise.
00:23:40Lila, what happened?
00:23:42What should I do?
00:23:56How's the happy couple?
00:23:58Oh, that's awkward.
00:24:11Just a small thing.

00:26:21the hormone shots would hurt but it's
00:26:24it's causing you pain yeah it's it's a
00:26:26little uncomfortable but I mean it will
00:26:28it will pass
00:26:29oh here
00:26:31oh okay
00:26:35thanks
00:26:48well the hormone shots were a part of
00:26:54the agreement and any resulting pain is
00:26:56technically a work-related issue and as
00:26:58your employer I have a duty of care
00:27:00okay
00:27:03purely professional
00:27:30adrian
00:27:37um about this weekend I'm sorry there's an
00:27:56emergency in Atlanta the merge is
00:27:58falling apart
00:27:59Thompson get the jet ready in 20 your
00:28:04family invited me to dinner
00:28:05guess I'll handle it on my own
00:28:12well I don't suppose we should expect
00:28:14punctuality from a person who's probably
00:28:16never had a proper watch in her life
00:28:18introduce him to the Lawson Harris the
00:28:22senator's daughter I don't understand why
00:28:24picks this gold digger from God knows where
00:28:27what did you say she did Ethan retail
00:28:31worse I wanna be writer she probably
00:28:34thought that landing a Crawford would be
00:28:35her best-selling story
00:28:37well I have tried to be welcoming I had
00:28:39the chef prepare her place setting and
00:28:44everything she probably couldn't figure
00:28:46out which work to do
00:28:48figure out which work to do
00:28:50I apologize for the site delay my my trying so hard to look the part
00:28:55James do make sure none of the silver goes missing after
00:29:02dinner I suppose Adrian's credit card is getting some good use and although money can buy designer clothes it can't buy breeding
00:29:09actually I made this dress myself oh darling who a seamstress for a daughter-in-law how quaint
00:29:37Quaint. At least we know who's going to be mending Adrian socks.
00:29:44I may not have been born into privilege, but I was raised with something much more valuable.
00:29:50Integrity.
00:29:52Integrity. Is that what you call seducing your way into our family?
00:29:58How much, how much will it take you to disappear? Name your price.
00:30:07The difference between you and I, Mr. Crawford, is that I don't think that everything comes with a price tag.
00:30:15Excuse me.
00:30:24Stay calm.
00:30:28You can do this.
00:30:34Getting all dressed up for me, baby.
00:30:37What's the rush? We're all family here.
00:30:48Well, almost family.
00:30:50Don't touch me.
00:30:52You used to like it when I touched you. Remember how shy you were?
00:30:57Always saying no.
00:30:59Run off me, bastard!
00:31:01Careful, now.
00:31:03One scream from you, and everyone at dinner is going to know what kind of girl you really are.
00:31:09Now, where were we?
00:31:11Everything all right, dear?
00:31:21You look flushed.
00:31:23So, as I was saying about the muscles.
00:31:29Stop it!
00:31:31Something wrong, Miss Reed?
00:31:32I don't know how you seduced my son, but someone like you could never deserve a place in this family.
00:31:48Who convinced her to give me a chance.
00:31:58Adrian.
00:32:03If anyone's unworthy in this relationship, it's me.
00:32:06You want to know how we met?
00:32:07She crashed into my life, quite literally.
00:32:10Papers flying, coffee spilled.
00:32:12Unlike some people, she didn't care about my name or my money.
00:32:16She, uh, refused me several times.
00:32:21Called me too arrogant, too controlling.
00:32:23First woman who dared to stand out to me.
00:32:26And that's when I knew I had to have her.
00:32:28I don't know how to have her.
00:32:33Sir, two things.
00:32:34Your sister has invited Miss Reed to tonight's family dinner, and your jet is ready.
00:32:38We can go now.
00:32:44Cancel it, Liam.
00:32:44What's the merger?
00:32:48Yes, sir.
00:32:50Funny that last week family's dinners were the most pointless waste of time in existence.
00:32:59Something is more important than business.
00:33:05Oh, what a touching story, Uncle.
00:33:08Too bad it's either a complete lie, or she's been playing us both.
00:33:14What are you talking about?
00:33:17We've been dating for three years.
00:33:20I have pictures of us together.
00:33:22She probably planned this from the start.
00:33:30Dating me to get close to the family, then setting her sights higher.
00:33:35You manipulative little truth.
00:33:37Face it, Uncle.
00:33:38You're just another rung on her ladder to the top.
00:33:43Face it, Uncle.
00:33:44You're just another rung on her ladder to the top.
00:33:52That's for every lie you just told.
00:33:57Adrian!
00:33:58How dare you hit my son!
00:34:00Where do you think you're going?
00:34:01We are not finished here yet!
00:34:03Yes, we are!
00:34:09I'm sorry.
00:34:10I shouldn't have left you alone with that.
00:34:12Thank you for coming back.
00:34:14And for making up such a beautiful story about us.
00:34:21Your hands, what happened?
00:34:22As my fiancée, you have access to the family accounts.
00:34:42I expect you to use them.
00:34:44I didn't want to presume.
00:34:46You're a Crawford now.
00:34:47Mr. Crawford, the embryos are ready.
00:35:02So we can proceed with the implantation tomorrow morning.
00:35:05I see.
00:35:09What is it?
00:35:10Is something wrong with the embryos?
00:35:12I've been thinking.
00:35:13Perhaps we should approach this matter in a more natural manner.
00:35:21Between a husband and wife.
00:35:25What are your thoughts?
00:35:29I think that we should go to bed.
00:35:33We have a really big day tomorrow.
00:35:36So, let me know.
00:35:40Good night.
00:35:43You know, you look like a giant polar bear in that outfit.
00:35:50Focus on the procedure.
00:35:54Try to relax, Mrs. Crawford.
00:36:02There.
00:36:04See that white spot?
00:36:07That's our baby.
00:36:08That's our baby.
00:36:13You know, I can walk.
00:36:16Doctor's orders?
00:36:17You seem more nervous than I do.
00:36:23I'm merely following medical procedure.
00:36:25Look at her.
00:36:37She's acting like a princess.
00:36:40She was probably a waitress last week.
00:36:45Now she's got Mr. Crawford wrapped around her finger.
00:36:49She was talking with her work.
00:37:03Oh.

00:50:36several executives are questioning if someone so personally distracted should and hurt the company
00:50:44mr gruffer we've been discussing my personal life your sudden access has let me be very clear
00:51:10This company took a 40% profit loss before I took over.
00:51:18Within three years, I tripled our market share.
00:51:21Every major merger, every successful acquisition,
00:51:24every stock surge, my execution, my strategies.
00:51:29So yes, I am getting married.
00:51:32And yes, I took some time off.
00:51:34And no, not a single person in this room has the right to question my commitment or my capability.
00:51:43Because without me, there wouldn't be a company left to me.
00:51:49Now, shall we discuss the merger?
00:52:04What's that?
00:52:06What's the Belmi in Your Life?
00:52:09Yes, it's an option of the world's very good.
00:52:11Where are the people at the table?
00:52:13Oh, that's easy.
00:52:14But the person's back is a small person at the table.
00:52:17Oh, that's why.
00:52:19The world's back is a small person at the table.
00:52:21I'll have to wait to see you next time.
00:52:23What's the right thing?
00:52:24Because I've been able to see you next time.

01:00:11You came.
01:00:25Let's skip the performance, Vivian.
01:00:29Still so cold.
01:00:32Don't you remember when you used to bring me soup when I was unwell?
01:00:35That was a long time ago.
01:00:38We were really great together, Adrienne.
01:00:40We could be together again.
01:00:43I don't know what game you're playing at, but it won't work.
01:00:46What we had, I never took it as seriously as you pretended to.
01:00:51But Lila, she's different.
01:00:54She's real.
01:00:56Pregnant gold digger is real.
01:00:58Please.
01:01:05I guess some things will never change.
01:01:10Watch your words.
01:01:14Stay away from my wife.
01:01:16A little girl.
01:01:27Daddy.
01:01:28No.
01:01:30Your hand.
01:01:31It's nothing.
01:01:34I need to tell you something.
01:01:37I'm going to be a mother.
01:01:39Is it that Ethan Boyz?
01:01:41No.
01:01:42No.
01:01:42Then who?
01:01:43It doesn't matter.
01:01:45But what does matter is that this is my baby.
01:01:49And I'm going to love them so much.
01:01:52With all the love that you gave me.
01:01:56Baby.
01:01:58I'm so sorry.
01:01:59I'm sorry I couldn't give you better.
01:02:04Daddy.
01:02:04If only I were healthy.
01:02:05If I could work.
01:02:07Daddy, don't.
01:02:07But the hospital bills.
01:02:11What are you getting money for?
01:02:14Don't tell me you sold yourself to some men.
01:02:16No.
01:02:17No.
01:02:17It's not like that.
01:02:19Did someone take advantage of you?
01:02:21My little girl pregnant all alone?
01:02:24She's not alone.
01:02:29Hi, Mr. Reid.
01:02:30I'm Adrian Crawford.
01:02:31I'm the father of her child.
01:02:37Adrian.
01:02:39I'm not just the father.
01:02:40I'm the man who's going to spend the rest of his life making sure your daughter and our child get everything they deserve.
01:02:46Pretty words from a rich man.
01:02:49Not words.
01:02:50Facts.
01:02:51I've already arranged a transfer to a private medical facility.
01:02:53Full treatment plan.
01:02:54Best specialists.
01:02:56Adrian.
01:02:57And I promise you this.
01:03:01Every morning, she's going to wake up knowing that she is cherished.
01:03:05Every decision I make, every step I take will be to ensure her happiness.
01:03:10You really mean that, don't you?
01:03:12Yes, sir, I do.
01:03:14Well.
01:03:17Maybe I can stop worrying.
01:03:20I don't know.
01:03:27Thank you for what you said in there.
01:03:31I know you were just trying to make my father feel better.
01:03:33No, no, no, no.
01:03:35I wasn't just doing anything.
01:03:37Every word I said in there is true.
01:03:40Adrian.
01:03:46Laila, I need to tell you something.
01:03:49I've been falling for you ever since you crashed into my office with that ridiculous donor questionnaire.
01:03:53Yes, we had a contract, but I realized you've become everything to me.
01:04:02You're not my surrogate.
01:04:05You're not my convenient fiancé.
01:04:09You're my partner.
01:04:11If you have me.
01:04:15But what about Ethan and William?
01:04:18What about them?
01:04:19Aren't you trying to just get revenge on Ethan and...
01:04:25Revenge?
01:04:26I never loved Vivian.
01:04:28And Ethan, he's not worth a second thought.
01:04:30Really?
01:04:32Then who was the guy I saw competing with Ethan?
01:04:37That was...
01:04:41I was jealous, okay?
01:04:45I thought of you with him.
01:04:48Wow.
01:04:50The great Mr. Crawford.
01:04:52Jealous.
01:04:52Don't mention it.
01:04:54I have a reputation to maintain.
01:04:55Hmm.
01:05:09I'm not letting you go.

01:19:58don't you dare
01:19:59I'm willing to give up everything, the company, the inheritance, all of it, but I won't give
01:20:18up her. She's my wife, the only one that I will ever want. We're getting married, properly,
01:20:27publicly. Fine. You want to throw away everything for this, for this woman, then you will get
01:20:39nothing from this family. Nothing! Sign it. Renounce your inheritance. All of it. No, no, no, no, Adrian,
01:20:52stop. Not worth losing everything for. You're worth everything.
01:20:57The company, the assets, I built them once. I can build them again. But you, you and our
01:21:07child, they're our real future. Still time to think it over, son.
01:21:24Let's go.
01:21:27Thanks.
01:21:44You've been at this for hours.
01:21:50I just got to finish this last chapter.
01:21:57I'll get you some food.
01:21:58What do you mean you're cancelling the contract? We've worked together for 10 years!
01:22:15No, no, no, no. Don't call Adrian. Hello? Hello? Hello?
01:22:21The Singapore merger just collapsed. They say they'll only work with Adrian.
01:22:25This is all your fault. You and your billion plan to get rid of them.
01:22:29My fault? You're the one who can't handle basic accounting.
01:22:32Enough!
01:22:33The board meeting starts in five minutes. Please tell me you have good news.
01:22:38Oh my god, this story sounds exactly like the powerful scandal. Wait, is this about the Adrian Crawford?
01:22:55A billionaire say you're all giving up everything for love. I'm crying.
01:23:05Is everything okay?
01:23:07I think I just went viral.
01:23:10They figured out stories about us. Look!
01:23:14Should I be concerned about what else you've revealed about me?
01:23:17Have you seen the comments? They're calling us heartless villains!
01:23:36I can't believe they're trying to suffer through a lot of businesses.
01:23:42Crawford Industries lost my business.
01:23:44Team Adrian, all the way.
01:23:47Yes, Penguin Publishing. Um, sorry, I actually have Random House on the other line, so I'm gonna have to...
01:23:54The movie rights?
01:23:56Um, I'm sorry, I'm gonna have to call you right back.
01:24:00Okay, thank you.
01:24:01The movie rights!
01:24:03What? Oh my god.
01:24:05My wife is so popular now.
01:24:06I know.
01:24:07Your father?
01:24:13Son, the board wants you back.
01:24:20Take your position. Your inheritance.
01:24:23I'll have to ask my wife.
01:24:25What do you think, Mrs. Crawford?
01:24:30First order of business.
01:24:31Starting without me.
01:24:32Perfect timing.
01:24:33I'm announcing your termination.
01:24:34You can't fire me.
01:24:35I'm a shareholder and a senior executive.
01:24:37The company crisis last month wasn't an accident.
01:24:38You and Ethan deliberately sabotaged our deal.
01:24:44You can't prove any free email, every call, every secret meeting without competitors.
01:24:45All documented.
01:24:46Lawsuit's already been filed.
01:24:47You and Ethan will be hearing from our lawyers.
01:24:51I'm sorry...
01:24:52Oh, shit!
01:24:53Oh!
01:24:54Oh!
01:24:55Oh!
01:24:56Oh my god.
01:24:57Yeah.
01:24:58And you couldn't do it.
01:24:59I really kau-
01:25:00Mmm.
01:25:01How many sexual crime-
01:25:15Ah!
01:25:19Mmm!
01:25:20Mmm, mmm, mmm.
01:25:23Adrian, I think my water just broke.
01:25:27Yeah, come home.
01:25:32Mr. Crawford, the vote for new director.
01:25:40For her, he'd drop everything.
01:25:44Including a multi-billion dollar company.
01:25:50Before we vote, there is something you should know.
01:25:59Adrian and Lila were legally married two months ago.
01:26:04And they have my full blessing.
01:26:20Both my girls still awake?
01:26:29I'm just finishing.
