00:00:00Zoe Campbell, will you marry me?
00:00:03Yes, it's St. Kross.
00:00:05I'll marry you.
00:00:08No one gets close to my sons without wanting something.
00:00:12What do you want?
00:00:16Zoe, he loves me.
00:00:18I know he does.
00:00:28I've changed my face.
00:00:30I've come so far.
00:00:33I'll find out the truth about you, Audrey.
00:00:36And I'll make him pay.
00:00:44There's no turning back.
00:00:46I promise.
00:00:47Hi, I'm Zoe Campbell.
00:01:06I'm here for my interview.
00:01:07Take a seat.
00:01:12We'll call you when he's ready.
00:01:14Oh, okay.
00:01:15I'll have an interview later, Mother.
00:01:24I swear.
00:01:26Ashton, you throw away assistants as if they have expiration dates printed on them.
00:01:30Don't worry.
00:01:31That won't take long.
00:01:32This is the third time this month.
00:01:35And every time, it means thousands of dollars paid to shut up these blood-sucking flies on the wall.
00:01:42Come on.
00:01:43Boys just want to have fun.
00:01:45Not when you're taking over a publicly traded company in two weeks.
00:01:51You leave me no choice.
00:01:55You're not crossing me off the trust fund.
00:01:57I won't.
00:02:00If you get married.
00:02:02This company is your father's life's work.
00:02:05I'm not letting a weak link ruin it.
00:02:07I'm so sorry for interrupting.
00:02:14Um, thank you.
00:02:16Who did her hair?
00:02:17Do you think she even combed it?
00:02:18I was mourning.
00:02:19No.
00:02:19She did not comb it.
00:02:20It's called a rat's nest.
00:02:22Oh, yes.
00:02:26This is bullshit.
00:02:27It can help redeem your image.
00:02:30It'll show the public that you've stopped screwing around.
00:02:33Started acting like a crono.
00:02:34I never wanted to be CEO.
00:02:36You know very well why it cannot be the same.
00:02:41What do I have to remind you?
00:02:45No.
00:02:53You're the heir to the Cross family, Ashton.
00:02:55This is the hand you've been dealt with.
00:02:59Play it well.
00:02:59This company is your father's life's work.
00:03:04I'm so sorry for interrupting, but Jeff said he needed your signature in three minutes, or we wouldn't be able to close the contract with Gabe from K&L, and he'd be really, really unhappy.
00:03:15Who are you?
00:03:17Pam, from Marketing Strategies.
00:03:21Mrs. Cross, it's a pleasure to meet you.
00:03:23Thank you, Pam.
00:03:24Well, obviously, Pam and I have a lot of work to do.
00:03:29We'll talk about this another time.
00:03:30You're not off the hook, Ashton.
00:03:34I've gone through great lengths to set you up with some very worthy candidates.
00:03:38Remember, you have two weeks, and I want to see a ring.
00:03:45We're so sorry, Mr. Cross.
00:03:47We didn't mean to let this woman disturb you.
00:03:49Yeah, we're really sorry.
00:03:51We'll escort her out right away.
00:03:52Did I say I wanted her out?
00:03:53She's fine.
00:03:56She can stay.
00:03:57Go back to work.
00:04:00Now, go back to work.
00:04:01Okay.
00:04:09Zoe Campbell.
00:04:11Why did you just burst in here like that?
00:04:13I didn't mean to eavesdrop, but it sounded like you could use an escape from that conversation.
00:04:18And you came up with that whole story on the spot, just like that.
00:04:21Act fast under pressure.
00:04:23You're hired.
00:04:30Okay.
00:04:31Your first day starts right now.
00:04:34Didn't expect it to be so easy, but yes, I guess it all starts right now.
00:04:43I never said I was Sally.
00:04:46Xander, wouldn't it make more sense if you didn't live in a penthouse?
00:04:50You'd also be closer to your PT, which Mother says is progressing.
00:04:56I wouldn't call taking five steps with a walk or progressing.
00:05:00I should probably leave.
00:05:02Hey, I see my little brother has yet another young lady in his life.
00:05:07This is my new assistant.
00:05:09Her name is Zoe.
00:05:10I shall enjoy getting to know your acquaintance, Zoe.
00:05:14At least these next few months.
00:05:16Xander.
00:05:16I can fend for myself.
00:05:20What happened to you?
00:05:21Car accident.
00:05:22Our father died.
00:05:24Cross Kingdom shattered overnight.
00:05:27What the press forgot to mention.
00:05:29You were there in the accident.
00:05:33Can we discuss the apartment?
00:05:35This meeting has completely been derailed.
00:05:39Zoe, perhaps it's the best if Xander and I continue alone.
00:05:48Wait, Zoe.
00:05:49That's what I'm telling you now.
00:05:52If he doesn't bend you over one way,
00:05:55he'll break you another.
00:05:58Really, Xander?
00:05:59Thank you for your concern.
00:06:00But the last thing you need to worry about is me falling for your brother.
00:06:05I assure you,
00:06:07you should be more afraid of me.
00:06:10Interesting.
00:06:11Xander, please.
00:06:12I'm only trying to help you.
00:06:18I don't know about you, but
00:06:19I could use a drink.
00:06:26I guess you could say
00:06:30that my relationship with my brother
00:06:32is improving.
00:06:33I mean, at least you're willing to work on it.
00:06:35I know my brother,
00:06:36and I know he's charming.
00:06:38Most of those women
00:06:39were in your position.
00:06:41Maybe Xander secretly wants to be close to you.
00:06:44Yeah.
00:06:45We don't have to talk about my brother.
00:06:47Or business.
00:06:49What should we talk about?
00:06:51We don't have to talk about my brother.
00:06:53Or business.
00:06:55What should we talk about?
00:06:56You tricked my mother
00:06:58and stood your own
00:07:00against Xander
00:07:01on the same day.
00:07:02That makes me a little
00:07:03curious.
00:07:06You know,
00:07:07they say curiosity
00:07:08is a dangerous thing.
00:07:10I'm not just another assistant
00:07:12you're going to go home with.
00:07:14I've had a lovely evening, though.
00:07:17And I'll see you tomorrow.
00:07:18I'll see you tomorrow.
00:07:48Curiosity isn't enough.
00:08:04I need his trust.
00:08:07I've changed my face.
00:08:09I've come so far.
00:08:11There's no turning back.
00:08:13I'll find out the truth about you, Audrey.
00:08:15And I'll make him pay.
00:08:18I promise.
00:08:22I can't believe she left
00:08:24with Ashton last night.
00:08:26You know what they say.
00:08:26You sleep with the right person.
00:08:28You get the right job.
00:08:30Oh my God!
00:08:31You spilled coffee everywhere!
00:08:32That was so embarrassing.
00:08:47Excuse me, ladies.
00:08:48I'm afraid I need to confiscate
00:08:49your key cards
00:08:50and escort you out.
00:08:52Wait, what?
00:08:53Why?
00:08:53It was a direct order
00:08:54from Mr. Cross.
00:08:55He fired us?
00:08:57I mean, he can't do that.
00:08:58I believe he can.
00:09:01Now, are you packing yourself
00:09:02or do you need a hand?
00:09:07You messed up the wrong person.
00:09:15You lose your job.
00:09:15Zoe, get in.
00:09:31You're coming with me.
00:09:33Look, Mr. Cross,
00:09:34I appreciate what you did,
00:09:36but I can't be seen
00:09:37going home with you every night.
00:09:39It's unprofessional.
00:09:40Zoe, you're my assistant now.
00:09:42You're going to work
00:09:42when I need you to work.
00:09:43Or I can save us
00:09:45both the trouble
00:09:45and fire you right now.
00:09:4926 hours.
00:09:49That would be a record
00:09:50even for me.
00:09:57Can I at least ask
00:09:58where we're going?
00:10:00On a date.
00:10:02What?
00:10:04Can I at least ask
00:10:05where we're going?
00:10:07On a date.
00:10:09What?
00:10:11Mr. Cross,
00:10:12I can't do this.
00:10:14Black Zoe,
00:10:15this isn't for you.
00:10:17This is for me
00:10:17and a friend.
00:10:20You brought me on a date
00:10:21with another woman.
00:10:23Technically,
00:10:23three other women.
00:10:25Why would you do that?
00:10:27I trust your judgment.
00:10:28Tell me which one of these girls
00:10:29I should marry.
00:10:32I just love yachts.
00:10:36You know,
00:10:36you sail out from L.A.
00:10:38and the entire Atlantic Ocean
00:10:40is yours.
00:10:41The Pacific Ocean.
00:10:44What?
00:10:46Never mind,
00:10:47I actually don't own the yacht.
00:10:50But you're rich!
00:10:52I'm sorry,
00:10:53this is a deal breaker.
00:10:55Maybe you should just go
00:10:56for your assistant.
00:10:57She's a little maintenance.
00:10:58Babies.
00:11:01Okay.
00:11:02Babies,
00:11:03I mean,
00:11:03they're just so small
00:11:04and they're scrungy
00:11:06and they look old,
00:11:07like old people,
00:11:08but they're little
00:11:09and they're babies
00:11:09and they don't know
00:11:10how to talk to you.
00:11:11And so,
00:11:12they start screaming
00:11:12and they start crying
00:11:14and then they poof
00:11:14and it goes everywhere
00:11:15and they throw up
00:11:16and like,
00:11:17honestly,
00:11:17it's the grossest thing
00:11:18I've ever experienced
00:11:19in my entire life.
00:11:20And not even that
00:11:21I experience babies
00:11:22because I've never been
00:11:23around babies.
00:11:23Other than the fact
00:11:24that I used to be a baby,
00:11:25I just,
00:11:25I do not like babies
00:11:28like at all.
00:11:29I think children
00:11:29are one of the most
00:11:30amazing gifts of life.
00:11:31And you are so funny,
00:11:33Ashton.
00:11:34I mean,
00:11:34the reality is
00:11:35is that babies
00:11:36would also get in the
00:11:37way of my social life
00:11:38and I have very
00:11:39high standards
00:11:41for like,
00:11:42living.
00:11:43And so,
00:11:44don't you think
00:11:45that's kind of selfish?
00:11:48I'm being a realist.
00:11:51And you're joking, right?
00:11:52A man with
00:11:53your Playboy reputation?
00:11:55You're honestly telling me
00:11:56that you,
00:11:57want to settle down
00:11:58and have children.
00:12:03You are so funny.
00:12:05You are so funny.
00:12:08My mother said
00:12:09that you study literature.
00:12:11Have you, uh,
00:12:11read Fitzgerald?
00:12:13Who?
00:12:15Oh, no,
00:12:15I didn't go to school.
00:12:17Did I go to school with him?
00:12:18I don't think
00:12:18I went to school with him.
00:12:19No, no, no.
00:12:21Uh, Fitzgerald.
00:12:22The Great Gatsby.
00:12:23Mm.
00:12:23I love Leonardo DiCaprio.
00:12:27I love him.
00:12:28I was at a party
00:12:29and he was like
00:12:30so hitting on me.
00:12:31It was so crazy.
00:12:32He was so short.
00:12:33It was so weird.
00:12:34Everything's been taken care of.
00:12:35Have a great night, alright?
00:12:36Oh, you paid for it?
00:12:37Yeah.
00:12:37Oh, really?
00:12:38Oh, thank you.
00:12:38So, wait, let's go?
00:12:39Yeah.
00:12:39Where are we going?
00:12:40Um, I have another date.
00:12:41Can you order another way,
00:12:44like, on your way out?
00:12:45Absolutely.
00:12:46Okay.
00:12:47Tell your mom I said hi.
00:12:49I miss her.
00:12:49Yes, we'll do.
00:12:50Okay.
00:12:56Absolutely.
00:12:58Cheers.
00:13:02So, um,
00:13:03Fitzgerald,
00:13:04you want kids?
00:13:06I have to say,
00:13:07I did not expect that.
00:13:09Let me guess.
00:13:10You thought I was
00:13:12some playboy
00:13:12who didn't care about anything,
00:13:14just like everybody else.
00:13:16Truth is,
00:13:18when people misunderstand you,
00:13:20and enough misunderstand you,
00:13:23you slowly forget
00:13:24who you are, too.
00:13:28This place is amazing.
00:13:32Xander and I designed this place.
00:13:35Wow.
00:13:36You were close.
00:13:39Yeah.
00:13:40Until we weren't.
00:13:44Do you have any siblings?
00:13:46No.
00:13:47Um,
00:13:49it's just me.
00:13:51You know,
00:13:53two years ago,
00:13:54it was actually me
00:13:55who was supposed to be
00:13:56on that flight to Zerich
00:13:57with my father.
00:13:59Not Xander.
00:14:01Sometimes I wish it was me.
00:14:02It was late at night.
00:14:10The car was headed
00:14:11to the airport.
00:14:15But I didn't show up.
00:14:19Xander was the heir.
00:14:23He was raised
00:14:23to take over the company.
00:14:25But I ruined him.
00:14:30You didn't ruin him.
00:14:32No one's meant to be one thing.
00:14:33I mean,
00:14:34we all have a choice.
00:14:37Not in my world, Zoe.
00:14:40You saw for yourself.
00:14:41I can't even get married
00:14:43when I'd like.
00:14:44Well,
00:14:45maybe not win,
00:14:46but you get to choose who.
00:14:48That's the most important part.
00:14:56What if I chose you?
00:14:57What if I chose you?
00:15:10What?
00:15:13You heard me.
00:15:19Zoe Campbell?
00:15:22Will you marry me?
00:15:25This is the joke.
00:15:27You're joking.
00:15:29I've
00:15:30never been more serious.
00:15:33Listen,
00:15:33Eshin,
00:15:34you may be used to getting
00:15:35whatever you want
00:15:35whenever you want it.
00:15:37I don't want to marry you
00:15:38out of convenience.
00:15:40Zoe,
00:15:41women see me
00:15:43as a golden ticket
00:15:44to money and fame.
00:15:46My father's passed away.
00:15:48Xander sees me
00:15:49as competition
00:15:50and my mother
00:15:50sees me as a pawn
00:15:51to save the family business.
00:15:53But you, Zoe,
00:15:53you actually see me
00:15:55for who I really am.
00:15:57That was good.
00:16:01You should have used that
00:16:01with some of your blind dates.
00:16:06I have to get married
00:16:07or I'm crossed off
00:16:08the trust fund.
00:16:10Negotiate your price.
00:16:12I'll have it put together.
00:16:12I'll find out the truth
00:16:15about you, Audrey.
00:16:16And I'll make him pay.
00:16:18How do I look?
00:16:33The city's most eligible bachelor
00:16:36is off the market.
00:16:37My mom gets what she wants.
00:16:39Her most able-bodied son
00:16:41takes the throne
00:16:42and keeps his trust fund.
00:16:44And today's your big day.
00:16:46See you out there.
00:16:59Mrs. Cross.
00:17:00What a lovely bride you are.
00:17:06Ashton is a very lucky man.
00:17:12But you can cut the act
00:17:13with me, sweetheart.
00:17:14I know you and Ashton
00:17:16aren't really together.
00:17:19Well, if you really believe that,
00:17:20then why didn't you do something?
00:17:23I wanted to at first,
00:17:25but then I realized
00:17:27you're actually perfect.
00:17:29I'm not.
00:17:30Why didn't you do something?
00:17:32I wanted to at first,
00:17:34but then I realized
00:17:36you're actually perfect.
00:17:39A working-class girl
00:17:41from the wrong side of the tracks.
00:17:43Pretty,
00:17:45but not too gorgeous.
00:17:49Sweet,
00:17:51but not too innocent.
00:17:54You're a real-life Cinderella,
00:17:56and the people love
00:17:58seeing a fairy tale
00:17:59come true.
00:18:01How do you know
00:18:02this will work?
00:18:04Because
00:18:05it worked for Robert and me.
00:18:10My husband built this empire,
00:18:12but he wouldn't have been able
00:18:14to rule it without me.
00:18:15And now it's your turn
00:18:17to stand next to Ashton
00:18:19on the throne.
00:18:21Support him.
00:18:23Help him.
00:18:25And play your part.
00:18:27I will,
00:18:30Mrs. Cross.
00:18:31Of course you will.
00:18:33And I intend to make sure of it.

00:19:12I just
00:19:13want
00:19:13Ashton.
00:19:14I think it looks
00:19:24perfect.
00:19:26Don't you think so,
00:19:28Mom?
00:19:34The essence of marriage
00:19:36is love,
00:19:37trust,
00:19:38and honesty.
00:19:40The virtues
00:19:40that we as human beings
00:19:42share.

00:21:13Who's been
00:21:13with your
00:21:14husband?
00:21:14Uh-oh, I don't like that look.
00:21:23There seems to be a competition going on called
00:21:25Who Can Come Up With The Most Humiliating Article About Zoe Campbell.
00:21:29Zoe Campbell puts a ring on Ashton Cross a week after becoming his assistant.
00:21:33One can only imagine how good Mrs. Campbell is at impressing her boss.
00:21:40Why are you even reading that garbage?
00:21:44I'm just not used to seeing my name trending.
00:21:53Did you see something you like?
00:21:55Nothing I haven't seen before.
00:21:57Fine. I'll make you dress for dinner.
00:21:59Uh, uh, I think you're fine. Right where you are.
00:22:14I've never felt like this before, Zoe.
00:22:31I've never felt like this before, Zoe.
00:22:45Look me in my eyes.
00:22:48Tell me you feel the same way.
00:22:49This marriage is just a piece of paper.
00:22:56It's a contract. Nothing more.
00:23:03Okay.
00:23:04Ashton, what happened to the woman at your work who killed herself?
00:23:14Did you know her?
00:23:16Um, no, not really.
00:23:19Uh, I know that she was nice.
00:23:22I saw her in the office a few times, but that was it.
00:23:24Why are you asking?
00:23:27Nothing. I, um, saw it on the news.
00:23:31Thought I was sad.
00:23:33Just wanted to know what the deal was.
00:23:35Yeah.
00:23:38Don't worry about the articles.
00:23:39I'll have it taken care of.
00:23:41You won't see anything tomorrow.
00:23:45Yeah.
00:23:46Don't mention it.
00:23:48Goodnight.
00:24:14You won't see anything tomorrow.
00:24:15You won't see anything tomorrow.
00:24:15That's what I did.
00:24:16We're receiving more information about the Dempsey shooting that took place in New York, involving two rival families heavily involved in the mob.
00:24:24No names have been released yet to the people who do know that the police are actively searching for suspects at large, including certain members of the well-known Saviano and Mancini family.
00:24:34We'll be sure to update everyone on that story, as they can see what happens.
00:24:39Back to you, Tom.
00:24:40Back to you, Tom.
00:25:01I really hope it wasn't you.
00:25:10I need to get rid of it all.
00:25:18Alright, well if I can't meet the guy yet,
00:25:20at least have to tell me something about him.
00:25:22What do you guys do?
00:25:23Do you go dancing?
00:25:24Um, he can't really dance.
00:25:26What do you mean he can't dance?
00:25:28You love dancing.
00:25:29He just doesn't, okay?
00:25:31Zoe!
00:25:35I love the meeting.
00:25:36And I'm taking you to lunch.
00:25:38I wasn't expecting you home so soon.
00:25:41Well, can a guy take his girl out on a date?
00:25:45Yeah.
00:25:47But, I feel like there's something you're not telling me.
00:25:57I feel like there's something you're not telling me.
00:26:03You're a cheeseburger girl, aren't you?
00:26:05Not a lobster girl.
00:26:06What?
00:26:07What?
00:26:08I'm taking you to lunch.
00:26:09And, I never really asked.
00:26:11Do you like cheeseburgers or do you like lobster?
00:26:17Oh, sounds like we need to get some food in you pretty quick.
00:26:20Don't worry.
00:26:21I already made reservations at Il Flore.
00:26:23They have cheeseburgers and lobster.
00:26:26I...
00:26:27Look, Ashton, there's something I have to tell you.
00:26:30Wait.
00:26:31How could I be so stupid?
00:26:33I keep making these reservations and I never even asked about your feelings.
00:26:38I keep showing you my world, but you haven't even had a chance to show me yours.
00:26:43Forget the reservations.
00:26:45Let's go wherever you want.
00:26:46Um...
00:26:47Okay.
00:26:48Mmm.
00:26:49Now this is food.
00:26:52Is everything okay?
00:26:53Yeah.
00:26:54It's just...
00:26:55I don't do stuff like this often.
00:26:56You wouldn't believe it, but this is my first ever picnic.
00:26:58What?
00:26:59Like, like not even as a kid?
00:27:15Between...
00:27:16Like not even as a kid?
00:27:17Between...
00:27:18ae...
00:27:19I don't do stuff like this often.
00:27:21You wouldn't believe it, but this is my first ever picnic.
00:27:24What?
00:27:25Like, not even as a kid?
00:27:26Between Latin, math, leadership class, we didn't really have time to be kids.
00:27:38Come on.
00:27:39Where are we going?
00:27:41Somewhere we can be kids again.
00:27:47You want me to do this?
00:27:49Uh-huh.
00:27:50Zoe, I'm a 28-year-old man in an $8,500 suit.
00:27:54I'm not kidding on that.
00:27:56That's crazy.
00:27:58I married someone I knew less than 30 hours.
00:28:00I think I get to decide what's crazy or not.
00:28:04This?
00:28:05Yeah, is this the dog?
00:28:09Is this your first time on a swing?
00:28:11No.
00:28:12Why would you think that?
00:28:13Oh my god, it is.
00:28:14Okay, look, you're just going to have to trust me, okay?
00:28:17I'm not going to let you fall.
00:28:18Okay.
00:28:19Don't forget.
00:28:22When I was little, my sister used to push me.
00:28:24So high.
00:28:25And I would just focus on the sky.
00:28:28Felt like I was flying.
00:28:31Wow.
00:28:35So.
00:28:37As you can cross.
00:28:40What do you think about my world?
00:28:43It's chaotic.
00:28:45But wonderful.
00:28:46Hey, you two.
00:28:55This is clearly not the time or place.
00:28:57Children, God, get a room.
00:28:59You see anything you like?
00:29:13Nothing I haven't seen before.
00:29:19Now that I haven't seen before.
00:29:21I love what you've done with the place.
00:29:49None for me.
00:29:52Since when?
00:29:55Since.
00:29:57Holy shit, you're pregnant?
00:30:00Am I going to get to meet the guy before I leave town?
00:30:02It's complicated.
00:30:04He's complicated.
00:30:06And everything's happening so fast.
00:30:08And I'm scared that something might go wrong.
00:30:10You are happy though, right?
00:30:11I just worry about you living here without me now.
00:30:15Zoe, I'm fine.
00:30:17I mean, I don't know.
00:30:18You're just rushing into this relationship.
00:30:20And now, motherhood adds so much stress.
00:30:22I'm in a really good place now.
00:30:25I've been doing this new therapy.
00:30:27Yeah, but I mean, you're rushing into a relationship with this guy that is going to be the father of your child.
00:30:32And I haven't even met him.
00:30:34Zoe.
00:30:34He loves me.
00:30:38I know he does.
00:30:41He loves me.
00:30:43I know he does.
00:30:46You'd be crazy not to.
00:31:01Audrey?
00:31:01Audrey?
00:31:01No, Audrey, please!
00:31:10Zoe, are you okay?
00:31:11Yeah.
00:31:12Zoe.
00:31:14You're screaming.
00:31:16I am.
00:31:17I am.
00:31:18I am.
00:31:19I'm fine.
00:31:20I'm fine.
00:31:27I'm fine.
00:31:29Are you sure?
00:31:31I had a sister.
00:31:39Our parents died when we were young.
00:31:42So, you know, growing up in orphanages and foster homes, you never really feel like anything belongs to you.
00:31:52Snacks and toys.
00:31:53You share everything.
00:31:56And my sister, she, um, she developed this habit that anytime she felt like something was, like, hers, truly hers, she would, um, write her initials on it.
00:32:15She was all I had.
00:32:16And now that she's gone, I just feel like I don't have anything else.
00:32:23I totally understand.
00:32:25I totally understand.
00:32:25My dad was the only person alive who understood me.
00:32:39And after he died, I haven't had a real connection with anyone since.
00:32:44Anything remotely real, Xander would sabotage out of jealousy.
00:32:53Wait here.
00:32:54Now you're going to have something that's actually yours again.
00:33:13You can't blame this all on your brother.
00:33:27You need to learn to control your anger.
00:33:30It's consuming you.
00:33:32If you're not asking, I'm not answering.
00:33:33You know this is the only way.
00:33:36It should be me and you know it.
00:33:38And he had the nerve to offer me an advisor position to the company you took away from me.
00:33:43You think I want to hand the company over to him?
00:33:53You're right, Xander.
00:33:54It should be you.
00:33:57But we have the board and the shareholders to convince.
00:34:00And they're blind.
00:34:01All they see is you in a wheelchair.
00:34:04Fuck the board!
00:34:04Fuck the shareholders!
00:34:05This is what I mean!
00:34:07The rage!
00:34:09You were once committed to getting better.
00:34:13We can get over what happened.
00:34:16But you have to want it.
00:34:19He doesn't deserve everything.
00:34:21Your father would have wanted you both to be happy.
00:34:25And that's all I want for you.
00:34:35Are you sure you're not coming?
00:34:43Do I want to go to a charity gala that snobby rich people hold just to feel better about buying three million dollar mansions and not paying taxes?
00:34:50I'm good.
00:34:50Thank you, Thab.
00:34:51Hey, you better watch it.
00:34:52You're married to one of those rich snobby people now.
00:34:54Come on, Zoe.
00:34:55We'll find some way to have fun.
00:34:56You're married to one of those rich snobby people now.
00:34:58Come on, Zoe.
00:34:59Come on, Zoe.
00:35:00We'll find some way to have fun.
00:35:03Go.
00:35:04You'll be late.
00:35:05I'm fine.
00:35:06I'll have a car to pick you up if you change your mind.
00:35:19Nothing I haven't seen before.
00:35:46Audrey.
00:35:48Can you get the car ready, please?
00:36:00I am going to the gala.
00:36:02And, um, don't let Mr. Cross know I'm coming.
00:36:07I want it to be a surprise.
00:36:10No, no.
00:36:11You didn't leave me alone.
00:36:12No.
00:36:14You want it to be a place.
00:36:15You don't have to have fun.

00:40:27I can feel you staring at me.
00:40:51I haven't felt like this in a while.
00:40:55I feel like myself.
00:40:59Sometimes, when I look in the mirror, I don't recognize myself.
00:41:05When I see you, I see you.
00:41:11You promise?
00:41:15Cross my heart.
00:41:25I don't care.
00:41:29Hey, Chad.
00:41:33Of course.
00:41:35What can I do for you?
00:41:39I know that you are the anonymous source and that you sent the press our marriage contract.
00:41:47I don't want to make a deal.
00:41:49Why would I do something like that?
00:41:51It doesn't matter.
00:41:53And I don't care.
00:41:55But for whatever reason you're doing it, you're coming between Ashton and I.
00:41:59You mean your scam of a marriage?
00:42:01It was.
00:42:03But it's real now.
00:42:05I just want you and Ashton to repair this relationship so that we can all be happy.
00:42:11What's your angle here?
00:42:13There's no angle.
00:42:15You're my own trauma.
00:42:16And there are a lot of things that I wish I could go back and say differently to my sis-
00:42:21to-
00:42:26I know you have a history and I know that it's difficult.
00:42:31But it's worth making amends.
00:42:34Does he know I leaked this story to the press?
00:42:37No.
00:42:38He's been through enough already.
00:42:45Whatever hurt that you've caused each other can be forgiven.
00:42:55What if the things you've done aren't forgivable?
00:43:00The past doesn't matter.
00:43:02Just what you do now matters.
00:43:06You fell for him.
00:43:08I got to know him.
00:43:10Maybe you should too.
00:43:16Maybe.
00:43:33I really hope that you and your brother can work things out.
00:43:40I'd like nothing more than to get closer to you, Zoe.
00:43:43This is impossible.
00:44:04This is important, Henry.
00:44:06I need to know I can trust you on this.
00:44:08Of course you can, Xander, but why are you-
00:44:10I don't need questions, Henry.
00:44:12I need answers.
00:44:15Don't worry.
00:44:16I'll have the test results in 24 hours.
00:44:18Good.
00:44:19Call me when you have it.
00:44:21And remember, I was never here.
00:44:23I was never here.
00:44:24I know that you are the anonymous source.
00:44:26I know that you are the anonymous source.
00:44:27I know that you were the anonymous source.
00:44:30I know that you were the anonymous source.
00:44:58Hey, I have the test results.
00:45:00It's a perfect match.
00:45:02So they're related.
00:45:03It's more than that, Xander.
00:45:05I said, perfect match.
00:45:07The two DNA samples are identical.
00:45:11I feel like I know you from somewhere.
00:45:13Maybe another life.
00:45:18They're twins.
00:45:19Good morning, Mrs. Cross.
00:45:46Is it about time?
00:45:47For cleaning?
00:45:49Yes, Mrs. Cross.
00:45:50I come every Monday.
00:45:52I can always come back.
00:45:53No, come in.
00:45:54I'll just go get a coffee.
00:46:00It won't take long, Mrs. Cross.
00:46:02I'm in.
00:46:18This takes time, Xander.
00:46:25I'm a private detective, not a sniffer dog.
00:46:28Check back.
00:46:39Check back.
00:46:53If you're thinking of having one of those, I won't object.
00:47:12You handled the crisis, wow.
00:47:16I was sure you'd run away with your tail between your legs.
00:47:20But you stayed.
00:47:23But what for?
00:47:26Now I know no one gets close to my sons without wanting something.
00:47:31The question is, what do you want?
00:47:46Voila.
00:47:50What do you want?
00:47:52You're right Lauren.
00:47:55I think I did want something from Ashton, but I don't know that I want it now.
00:48:00I recognize that look on your face.
00:48:10It happened to me with Robert, Sandra and Ashton's father.
00:48:14I fell in love with a man I hated.
00:48:19It was an arranged marriage and I didn't want to be in it.
00:48:23I got to truly know him.
00:48:26And it changed me.
00:48:31Don't stare at me like that, Zoe.
00:48:33You might think I'm a witch whose heart is made of stone, but I still know what love is.
00:48:47You wanted to see me?
00:48:48Take a seat.
00:48:49What's up?
00:48:55I found something and I think you should see this.
00:48:59I'm sorry.
00:49:00I'm sorry.
00:49:01I'm sorry, little brother.
00:49:04But it looks like it's time to wake up from this dream.
00:49:08You're saying that because you want me to help run your escape.
00:49:28But it looks like it's time to wake up from this dream.
00:49:35You're just saying that because you want me to help run your precious company.
00:49:40Yes, I was Robert's wife.
00:49:42And his company is very important to me.
00:49:45But I'm also a mother.
00:49:50I can see Ashton cares about you.
00:49:53More than the others.
00:49:54He has calmed his playboy antics.
00:50:00I can see he's a better person with you.
00:50:04There was one woman before, but she disappeared.
00:50:07Who knows why?
00:50:08She probably couldn't handle the pressure of being across.
00:50:13There was one woman before, but she disappeared.
00:50:17Who knows why?
00:50:18She probably couldn't handle the pressure of being across.
00:50:22Love isn't logical, Zoe.
00:50:23And loving Ashton is probably the most illogical thing you could do.
00:50:28But that doesn't make it wrong.
00:50:33Wait.
00:50:35There was another woman?
00:50:37A serious relationship?
00:50:39What happened to her?
00:50:40I don't know, Zoe.
00:50:42You probably got sick of her like all the other girls.
00:50:44You're here now.
00:50:47She's gone forever.
00:50:49And for some reason, he likes keeping you around.
00:50:53So you're my only hope.
00:50:55Your only hope for what?
00:50:58A family legacy, Zoe.
00:51:00Xander can't give me a grandchild, but Ashton can.
00:51:05Ashton is the future of this company and this family.
00:51:09Xander's reign ended in that car accident.
00:51:11Everything is working according to plan.
00:51:15At least for Ashton.
00:51:29Ashton?
00:51:29You actually believe it?
00:51:33That I killed Audrey?
00:51:35I don't want to.
00:51:38But I see it now.
00:51:41The AC tattoo.
00:51:44The high-profile lover.
00:51:46The pregnancy.
00:51:49It has to be you.
00:51:50There's no other explanation.
00:51:52Wait.
00:51:59Audrey was pregnant?
00:52:01You didn't know, did you?
00:52:10When you pushed her off the balcony?
00:52:12I never slept with Audrey.
00:52:15She was with someone else.
00:52:17Stop lying to me.
00:52:19You've been lying to me?
00:52:20I wanted to tell you.
00:52:23But how do you tell someone?
00:52:25That you completely changed what you looked like to avenge your sister's death.
00:52:29You made me fall in love with you.
00:52:33And I fell in love with the man who murdered my Audrey.
00:52:37I didn't kill her, Zoe.
00:52:40I swear.
00:52:43It crossed my heart.
00:52:50I really wish that it wasn't you.
00:53:07Would you believe me if I said I really did love you?
00:53:14Neither would I.
00:53:22Neither would I.
00:53:22I was raised about her.
00:53:24I'm sorry.
00:53:25I mean, I fell in love with the lady.
00:53:29God is lying to me.
00:53:33I'm sorry.
00:53:33I'm sorry.
00:53:34I'm sorry.
00:53:34I'm sorry.
00:53:37I'm sorry.
00:53:42I needed you呼籠.
00:53:43How do you feel?
00:53:44I'm sorry.
00:53:44I need you вместе.
00:53:45I love you anymore.
00:53:46I'm sorry.
00:53:47I don't know.
00:54:17Paternity test results.
00:54:47Xander, now's not a good time.
00:54:50Now is the perfect time.
00:54:52I know where Zoe is.
00:54:54I'll send you the address, but you better hurry if you want to say goodbye.
00:55:00What are you talking about?
00:55:02Everyone has their tipping point, Ash.
00:55:04All I need to do is give her one tiny push.
00:55:10Xander, if you hurt her, I'll kill you.
00:55:15You've already done that, Ash.
00:55:18Two years ago.
00:55:21Xander.
00:55:23Xander.
00:55:23Faternity test results.
00:55:38A family legacy, Zoe.
00:55:41AC.
00:55:42Xander can't give me a grandchild, but Ashton can.
00:55:46Xander calls.
00:55:47Alexander calls.
00:55:50He can't really dance.
00:56:14What do you mean he can't dance?
00:56:15You love dancing.
00:56:16He just doesn't, okay?
00:56:22Audrey betrayed me.
00:56:24What are you doing here?
00:56:26And so did Ashton.
00:56:28I guess some curses do run in the family.
00:56:32Get inside.
00:56:33Happy birthday.
00:56:53Oh, Xander.
00:56:56Wow.
00:56:57This is an amazing gift.
00:56:59But I was hoping that maybe I could ask for something else.
00:57:05Anything.
00:57:07Well, I was thinking that maybe it was time that we take our relationship public.
00:57:13So that we don't have to keep this a secret.
00:57:21You're pregnant.
00:57:24We're going to have a baby.
00:57:25I never thought I'd come to this.
00:57:30But you're happy, right?
00:57:33Of course.
00:57:35I'm so happy.
00:57:38I love you, Xander.
00:57:39I love you, Audrey.
00:57:42You're mine.
00:57:44Now and forever.
00:57:46Come on, help me out.
00:57:47Let me put this necklace on my future wife.
00:57:53Turn around.
00:57:54Turn around.
00:57:55Xander, what are you doing?
00:58:10I never told you.
00:58:11Because I was ashamed.
00:58:14I can't have kids.
00:58:16You want to fool me into being your crippled, rich husband?
00:58:19Xander, please.
00:58:21I have proof.
00:58:22It's your baby.
00:58:24Our baby.
00:58:25Get inside.
00:58:44It was you.
00:58:45You killed Audrey.
00:58:46And you're the one who sent my DNA and my passport to Ashton and all of it was you.
00:58:54How did you know who I was?
00:58:56The day you came and visited me in my office, you hugged me the exact same way she did.
00:59:02Sentiments can really fuck things up, huh?
00:59:13And so you're going to kill me now, too?
00:59:15No.
00:59:17I have a better plan for you.
00:59:20Zoe!
00:59:21Zoe!
00:59:21No, no, Ashton, no!
00:59:23You can't come in!
00:59:24Please!
00:59:25Zoe, thank God.
00:59:27Welcome to the grand finale, little brother.
00:59:31I don't know about you, but I'm dying to see how this all turns out.
00:59:38Welcome to the grand finale, little brother.
00:59:40I don't know about you, but I'm dying to see how this all turns out.
00:59:45One more step and she's dead.
00:59:47It's not her fault what happened.
00:59:49It's mine.
00:59:49Don't worry about it.
00:59:51You're going to get yours.
00:59:52I'm going to have my payback.
00:59:54I'm going to take back everything you took from me.
00:59:57My job, my title, my reputation.
00:59:59But in order to do that, I've got to make sure you never get in my way again.
01:00:07You see two sisters dying in the same apartment.
01:00:12That's going to lead to suspicion.
01:00:14But if I can connect...
01:00:15Have you lost your mind?
01:00:16Let me fucking finish.
01:00:19If I can connect them to the same men...
01:00:24You killed Audrey?
01:00:29You killed Audrey?
01:00:32You did.
01:00:34Soon the B-CEO turns out to be a maniac.
01:00:38Brutally killing his mistress and his wife.
01:00:41After he kills her, he turns himself in.
01:00:45Or puts the gun to his own head, I don't care.
01:00:48You choose, little brother.
01:00:50You can't get away with it.
01:00:52Of course I will.
01:00:54All I've got to do is convince the shareholders.
01:00:56You'd be surprised how quickly a bunch of lies can turn into the truth.
01:01:02But enough of that.
01:01:03We don't have all night.
01:01:04Ladies first.
01:01:11Xander, you don't have to do this!
01:01:13Shut the fuck up.
01:01:15Just shut the fuck up.
01:01:16Please.
01:01:18You're too late, little brother.
01:01:20Two years too late.
01:01:21You chose this.
01:01:24You could have lived your life with someone who truly loved you, but instead you murdered her.
01:01:27She never loved me.
01:01:28She had an AC tattoo!
01:01:30She loved you so much that she marked herself as yours!
01:01:33She betrayed me with another man!
01:01:36Did you not see the paternity test?
01:01:41It's all right here.
01:01:42If you kill me now, the police will come and they'll find me, and they'll link me to Audrey,
01:01:51and they'll know that you murdered her while she was pregnant with your baby!
01:01:54You're fucking lying.
01:01:56You should have trusted Audrey.
01:01:59But you were so blinded by your jealousy and your anger that you killed someone who truly loved you.
01:02:06You're a liar, Zoey Campbell.
01:02:24And you're dead.
01:02:30Audrey Hale.
01:02:32Mother.
01:02:33You're a 99.9% match-worth.
01:02:40Alexandra Cross.
01:02:43Father.
01:02:44Oh, Jesus.
01:02:46What have I done?
01:02:49What have I done?
01:02:51I'm so sorry, Audrey.
01:02:53So that we don't have to keep this a secret.
01:03:00You're pregnant.
01:03:02Yeah.
01:03:03We're gonna have the baby.
01:03:06I'm so sorry.
01:03:09No, no, no!
01:03:10BANG!
01:03:38Ready?
01:03:39It's ready as I'll ever be.
01:03:46Oh my gosh. Okay, okay, okay.
01:03:48One.
01:03:49Two.
01:03:50Three.
01:03:53We're having a girl.
01:03:54What's our girl?
01:03:56We're having a baby girl.
01:04:00I know the perfect name.
01:04:02Mm-hmm.
01:04:03Audrey.
01:04:06I know the perfect name.
01:04:08Mm-hmm.
01:04:09Audrey.
01:04:12That's perfect.
01:04:16You wanna swing?
01:04:19Don't let me fall, okay?
01:04:21Cross my heart.
01:04:23Ready?
01:04:24Ready?
01:04:25Okay.
01:04:26Here you go.
01:04:31How does it feel?
01:04:32Like I'm flying.
01:04:38You want to be.
01:04:40Mm-hmm.
01:04:42This can't be started with me.
01:04:46Mm-hmm.
01:04:51Mm-hmm.
01:04:53Mm-hmm.
01:04:55Ooh-ooh.
01:04:58Mm-hmm.
01:04:59Amen.
