00:00:00Did you get me an escort?
00:00:02Enjoy!
00:00:04To your grand, Shadina, right?
00:00:06And, um, keep the teacher.
00:00:08I know it's been five years,
00:00:10but does she really not remember me?
00:00:12She's not just a random girl.
00:00:14She's Serena Monroe,
00:00:16and she thinks that my family killed her mother.
00:00:18Before she sees me as the Jessie Ross,
00:00:20I need a chance to show her who I really am.
00:00:24Miss Monroe, why didn't you tell me
00:00:26that your husband was, um,
00:00:28so handsome?
00:00:30Yeah.
00:00:32Where do you live?
00:00:34Fuck, I just pulled it over to some random neighborhood.
00:00:36I don't actually live here.
00:00:38What the fuck is going on?
00:00:40Jessie Ross.
00:00:42How do you always end up being at the right place
00:00:44at the right time?
00:00:46Because I only do it.
00:00:48Are there any other secrets
00:00:50you're hiding from me, Jessie Ross?
00:00:52I guess we'll find out.
00:01:00I'm not going to be in the right place.
00:01:02I'm not for anyone else.
00:01:04Oh!
00:01:06How are you doing?!
00:01:08Really?
00:01:10I'm not a kid.
00:01:12I'm not a kid.
00:01:14Thank you so much.
00:01:18Okay, bye-bye.
00:01:19Hi.
00:01:20I'm looking for my fiancé.
00:01:22His name is Ken Snyder.
00:01:24What room is he in?
00:01:25Oh, I'm sorry, miss.
00:01:26I can't provide the information of our guests,
00:01:28even if he is your fiancé.
00:01:31Listen, I know for a fact that he's upstairs
00:01:35screwing another woman.
00:01:36Let me tell you something else.
00:01:37That woman is probably my half-sister.
00:01:40I'm supposed to get married to him next week,
00:01:42and we haven't even had sex because he said
00:01:44that he's saving himself for marriage.
00:01:46Now, I need concrete evidence
00:01:47that this asshole is cheating on me,
00:01:49so what do you say?
00:01:51Can you help a sister out?
00:01:54You didn't get this for me.
00:01:56Of course not.
00:01:57I remember.
00:02:02Oh, man.
00:02:04I wish I could go with her.
00:02:08Oh, baby.
00:02:10I'm coming.
00:02:11Okay.
00:02:12Oh, my God.
00:02:19Baby, that was so good.
00:02:21Gosh, but it just makes me even more pissed
00:02:23knowing that you're getting married to Serena next week.
00:02:26I really can't stand the thought of you having sex with her.
00:02:29How are you going to get out of fucking her now?
00:02:31I know, sweetheart.
00:02:32But I'm doing this for us.
00:02:35Serena's mother stated in her will
00:02:36know that she has to be married by 28
00:02:38to take over the company.
00:02:40She's turning 28 in a week.
00:02:42This is just temporary.
00:02:44Once I take her company,
00:02:45I'll divorce her.
00:02:47Then you and I can be together.
00:02:49You promise?
00:02:49I promise you, I won't touch her.
00:02:53I'll just tell her I can't get it up or something.
00:02:56You two are disgusting.
00:03:05Here, take a shower.
00:03:07What the fuck, Serena?
00:03:09What the hell are you doing here?
00:03:10You're asking me that
00:03:11after I catch you in bed with my fiancé?
00:03:14Really, Carol?
00:03:15You're asking me that
00:03:16after I catch you in bed with my fiancé?
00:03:18And Ken, my sister?
00:03:20Get off your high horse, Serena.
00:03:21Your father arranging our engagement
00:03:23so you can keep your mother's company.
00:03:24It's not like we're in love.
00:03:26That may be true, but I did trust you.
00:03:28I'm not marrying a cheater.
00:03:30The engagement is off.
00:03:32Good luck finding a husband in less than a week.
00:03:34You can say goodbye to your company.
00:03:37What the fuck, Serena?
00:03:39I'm never letting go of my mother's company.
00:03:42Ever.
00:03:43Test me again,
00:03:44and you'll see what I'm capable of.
00:03:50That bitch.
00:03:56Lynn,
00:03:57could you meet me at the Ross Hotel bar?
00:03:59Now?
00:04:02And then he has the audacity
00:04:04to tell me I'm a phone or kill.
00:04:07Okay, Serena, I get it.
00:04:08You got cheated on.
00:04:09But honestly, drinking is not going to help.
00:04:13Something else will.
00:04:15What are you talking about, Lynn?
00:04:16I got you a surprise.
00:04:18It's waiting for you in room 10-11.
00:04:20Or should I say,
00:04:22he is...
00:04:24Did...
00:04:25Did you get me an escort?
00:04:27Did you get me an escort?
00:04:33Did...
00:04:33Did you get me an escort?
00:04:36Lynn,
00:04:37I don't need an escort.
00:04:39What I need right now
00:04:40is to find a way
00:04:41that I'm going to get married in a week
00:04:42so I can take over my mother's company.
00:04:44Come on, Serena.
00:04:44You're too stressed.
00:04:46You need to let loose.
00:04:47Have some fun first.
00:04:48I think our ideas of fun
00:04:52don't align.
00:04:54Just go.
00:04:55Have some fun with him
00:04:55and relax.
00:04:57I'm 10-11.
00:04:57Trust me.
00:04:58Go.
00:04:59Go.
00:05:00Okay.
00:05:04This is crazy.
00:05:05Knock when you get there.
00:05:06He'll be waiting for you.
00:05:08Check out us at 11 a.m.
00:05:10Enjoy.
00:05:11Shh.
00:05:11This is fucking crazy.
00:05:31It's you.
00:05:39What's your name again?
00:05:41It's you.
00:05:44Wow.
00:05:44Where did they find you?
00:05:54How did you find me?
00:05:55I didn't find you.
00:05:57Lynn did.
00:05:58I'll be right back.
00:06:03Hello.
00:06:04You there, yeah?
00:06:05Yeah.
00:06:06And he is super hot.
00:06:08Thank you, bestie.
00:06:10Have fun.
00:06:11I didn't know.
00:06:13How did you even...
00:06:14Shh.
00:06:15Just...
00:06:16No talking.
00:06:18Let's just enjoy each other's company.
00:06:20Hey.
00:06:30Hello?
00:06:31What do you mean, no show?
00:06:33She said she was there already.
00:06:34Well, I've been here for 30 minutes
00:06:35and no one is here.
00:06:36I'm leaving.
00:06:37Charging you with $500 cancellation fee.
00:06:39Goodbye.
00:06:40Goodbye.
00:06:41Oh, hello?
00:06:43If she's not there, then where the hell is she?
00:06:46Okay.
00:06:47One second.
00:06:47Um...
00:06:49Oh, God, what happened last night?
00:07:18I have to...
00:07:19I have to...
00:07:35I have to get out of here.
00:07:50Leaving without telling me your name again?
00:07:55Again?
00:07:57Again?
00:07:59Um, I've never actually done this before.
00:08:03I know it's been five years,
00:08:04but did she really not remember me?
00:08:08Hey, dear, pocket's pretty great.
00:08:09All right, easy, easy, easy, easy, easy.
00:08:14Your phone, too.
00:08:18Your jacket.
00:08:19That's real nice.
00:08:20I want that, too.
00:08:22Really?
00:08:22I'm sorry.
00:08:35Oh, ouch.
00:08:37You got jumped, huh?
00:08:38Yeah.
00:08:40Was it because you were wearing expensive clothes?
00:08:45No, I can't.
00:08:46Just take it.
00:08:46My friends are on the corner.
00:08:53Oh, and next time you're in the neighborhood,
00:08:55don't wear nice stuff.
00:08:57You're going to get targeted.
00:08:58Hey, what's your name again?
00:09:00Thank you for the lovely night,
00:09:09and I should be going.
00:09:13Wow, it really is you.
00:09:16Smile for the camera, sis.
00:09:19Smile for the camera, sis.
00:09:21I heard you were drinking yourself to death
00:09:25at the bar downstairs.
00:09:27Looks like you had some fun.
00:09:29I can already see the headlines now.
00:09:31Heiress of Monroe Construction
00:09:32cheats on her fiancé with a cowboy?
00:09:36Who are you to talk about cheating?
00:09:38I just caught you in bed with my fiancé.
00:09:40Yeah, well, nobody knows about that, do they?
00:09:42Just wait until I upload these photos.
00:09:44You will never be named CEO.
00:09:46What the fuck are you doing?
00:09:52Are you an idiot?
00:09:54I've already uploaded all these to iCloud.
00:09:56Hmm, what a coincidence.
00:09:59So have I.
00:10:02You sneaky bitch!
00:10:04At least I have clothes on.
00:10:06What do you think is going to be worse?
00:10:07Your nudes with Ken?
00:10:09Or me just in a room with man?
00:10:12I'm telling father about this.
00:10:14This is not the last of me.
00:10:16Ah!
00:10:22I'm sorry you had to see that.
00:10:24But nice move, not gonna lie.
00:10:26You handled it well.
00:10:28Is it true you have a fiancé?
00:10:31Ex-fiancé?
00:10:33Ken Snyder?
00:10:34The heir of Snyder Electronics?
00:10:36That's the one.
00:10:37I'm taking over my mother's company in three days,
00:10:40and that's all he really cares about.
00:10:42Well, that Snyder guy would be a fool
00:10:43to care more about a company than you.
00:10:45Well, anyway,
00:10:48thank you for helping me out.
00:10:51My name is Serena Monroe.
00:10:52What's yours?
00:10:53Jesse.
00:10:54Jesse Ross.
00:10:55As in CEO of Ross Architecture and Construction?
00:11:05Jesse Ross.
00:11:07As in CEO of Ross Architecture and Construction?
00:11:11Hey, Mom.
00:11:12How are you?
00:11:21Better now that you're here.
00:11:29The Rosses just won't give up, will they?
00:11:36I told them a million times to leave us alone.
00:11:38You're sick for God's sake.
00:11:40They don't care, sweetie.
00:11:41All the Rosses see is a great opportunity to acquire a blooming company from a dying woman.
00:11:50Don't say that, Mom.
00:11:51Don't worry, Serena.
00:11:52I'm leaving the company to you, even if it's the last thing that I do.
00:11:58It's too hard to do alone.
00:12:01Promise me that you'll find someone kind, someone you trust.
00:12:07Marry him and take over the company when you turn 28.
00:12:11And keep our legacy.
00:12:15No, just don't leave me alone.
00:12:17Promise me, Serena.
00:12:20I promise.
00:12:35Jesse Ross.
00:12:38Stay the fuck away from me.
00:12:40I'm sorry.
00:12:40Did I say something?
00:12:42My mother was Pauline Monroe.
00:12:44Seven years ago, your family tried to get her to sell her company while she was dying from cancer.
00:12:49Okay, hold on a second.
00:12:50What are you talking about?
00:12:52My mother's company was her life's work.
00:12:54And you tried to steal it from her.
00:12:56And that killed her.
00:13:02Serena, wait.
00:13:04What?
00:13:05And don't say you're sorry.
00:13:06That's not going to bring her back.
00:13:07I'm not Jesse Ross.
00:13:11What do you mean you're not Jesse Ross?
00:13:17I mean, I'm not that Jesse Ross.
00:13:19Jesse Ross, I mean, it's a pretty common name, no?
00:13:21How can I forget?
00:13:23He's an escort.
00:13:24How could he be that Jesse Ross?
00:13:27Right.
00:13:28Totally.
00:13:29That name is just really triggering for me.
00:13:32Besides, this is the Ross Hotel.
00:13:35If you were the real Jesse Ross, somebody would have recognized you.
00:13:40Oh, good morning, Mr. Ross.
00:13:42How did she know who you are?
00:13:51I work at this hotel quite often.
00:13:55I mean, I work at many different hotels.
00:13:57Of course, of course.
00:13:58Due to your profession.
00:14:00I'm sure you have to do this a lot.
00:14:02Anyway, speaking of that, did Lynn already pay?
00:14:06Excuse me?
00:14:07Oh, oh, my God.
00:14:08I'm so sorry.
00:14:11Two grand should be home, right?
00:14:13And keep the tears.
00:14:20Um, bye.
00:14:23Hold on.
00:14:24Does she think I'm an escort?
00:14:25Have a good rest of your day.
00:14:37Um, do you want me to call you an Uber or something?
00:14:41No, that's all right.
00:14:42I'll take the subway.
00:14:44Subway?
00:14:45Isn't he the owner of this hotel?
00:14:47Well, um, thanks for the great night.
00:14:51You're welcome.
00:14:52Bye.
00:14:53Bye.
00:14:53Bye.
00:14:55Good morning, boss.
00:15:10Oh.
00:15:12Got some news for you.
00:15:15The franchise mall is delayed in construction again.
00:15:18Same problem?
00:15:19A taco stand lady refuses to leave.
00:15:22We'll have to forcible remove her
00:15:24if we want to continue the construction.
00:15:29All right, let's go.
00:15:39Hey, so I'm going to need this whole truck that moves.
00:15:43You listen to me, you copper asshole.
00:15:45I'm not going nowhere, okay?
00:15:47I've been here for over ten years.
00:15:49And if you want me to go, it's going to be over my dead body, okay?
00:15:54How much would it cost to buy out the entire business?
00:15:57What?
00:15:58I mean, everybody has a price, right?
00:15:59You asshole!
00:16:00You think everything can be bought with money?
00:16:03I mean, look at this stupid idiot!
00:16:06I don't think he wants to come here.
00:16:08I'm from you.
00:16:09To be with somebody.
00:16:10All night, it's foul.
00:16:11It's absolutely foul.
00:16:12I don't know where she found this person.
00:16:14Shameless bitch.
00:16:16Carol told us that you were out the whole night at a hotel with another man?
00:16:20You have tarnished our family's name!
00:16:26Monroe is my family name.
00:16:29You're just a homewrecker turned stepmom living in the house that my mom bought with the money that my mom earned.
00:16:36So I suggest you shut your mouth or I swear I'll do it for you.
00:16:42Look at your daughter.
00:16:46So I suggest you shut your mouth or I swear I'll shut it for you.
00:16:50This is your daughter.
00:16:53Look at your daughter!
00:16:54How dare you talk to us like that!
00:16:57You're the one out there with every man you could scoop up on the street!
00:17:01Go back to Ken.
00:17:02Apologize and beg his forgiveness.
00:17:05Yeah.
00:17:06I'll do that, Dad.
00:17:08When pigs fly.
00:17:09Are you crazy, Serena?
00:17:12You cannot take over this company until you are married.
00:17:15How do you expect to find a husband in the next few days?
00:17:18Oh, don't you worry.
00:17:19I will.
00:17:20It just won't be the guy that cheated on me with my own sister.
00:17:26What?
00:17:32You're a homewrecker.
00:17:34Like mother, like daughter.
00:17:36Huh?
00:17:36You sneaky bitch.
00:17:38I was just keeping Ken company.
00:17:40You were the one who was out with a cowboy all night.
00:17:43At least he was nice and honest.
00:17:47You guys?
00:17:48You guys are just a bunch of money-hungry vultures feasting off of what my mom left behind.
00:17:53That's your daughter.
00:17:59She should be locked up.
00:18:01You're both right.
00:18:02I won't let them take your company, Mom.
00:18:15I promise.
00:18:16I won't let them do this.
00:18:17Okay.
00:18:24Where are you, Serena?
00:18:26I don't want to talk about last night.
00:18:28We will talk about it, Serena.
00:18:30But I'm actually calling as your assistant now.
00:18:32You should be meeting the chief designer of construction at Future Mall for the construction site right now.
00:18:36Oh, shit.
00:18:38I completely forgot.
00:18:39Okay.
00:18:40Um, I'm on my way.
00:18:41I don't want to talk about it, Serena.
00:18:43Nice.
00:18:43Nice.
00:18:44Is that a troca?
00:18:46Yes.
00:18:47Is all yours, Serena.
00:18:52God bless you.
00:18:57Hey, can you move this truck?
00:19:01Uh, I think you use a drink.
00:19:03Hi, um, do you guys have water here?
00:19:11It's you.
00:19:12Oh.
00:19:13Uh, I didn't take you as a taco stand kind of guy.
00:19:17You're gonna kill yourself doing all these jobs.
00:19:19Yeah.
00:19:20Usually I can handle this type of stuff, but I'm especially tired after last night.
00:19:26Hmm.
00:19:27No, not today.
00:19:28I'm not doing that.
00:19:30Anyways, what can I help you with, Miss Monroe?
00:19:33Hmm, you can call me Serena.
00:19:35I was actually supposed to meet someone here, but it looks like I am late, so I think they already left.
00:19:41Somebody that keeps you waiting?
00:19:43Hmm.
00:19:44I think you're worth the wait.
00:19:46Hold on a second.
00:19:47You might actually be the perfect.
00:19:49Hey, Jesse, are you married?
00:19:51No.
00:19:52Girlfriend?
00:19:53No.
00:19:55Situationship with different women?
00:19:57Of course not.
00:19:59Hmm.
00:20:00Okay, perfect.
00:20:01Let's go.
00:20:03Where are we going?
00:20:05City Hall.
00:20:06We're gonna get married.
00:20:12Okay.
00:20:13Well, it's official.
00:20:15We're married.
00:20:17Kind of weird now that I said it out loud.
00:20:19I don't know.
00:20:20I think it sounds just right to me.
00:20:22Well, not the marriage part.
00:20:26It's over.
00:20:27Let's talk business.
00:20:28I'm gonna deposit 10K on this card every month, and that is your salary for playing my husband.
00:20:33You know I'll marry you for free.
00:20:36Come on, Jesse.
00:20:39You rarely know me.
00:20:41I know you well enough to know that I like you.
00:20:46Just take it, Jesse.
00:20:49I can't have you working in the hotels, if you know what I mean.
00:20:54Listen, I'm...
00:20:57All right.
00:21:01You're right.
00:21:02The gentleman never argues with the lady.
00:21:05Great.
00:21:06Oh, I have to go, but keep your phone on you, and I look forward to working with you, Jesse Ross.
00:21:14You as well, Serena Monroe.
00:21:16We need to stop talking about her for once.
00:21:22I'm just a little bit over it.
00:21:23I'm here.
00:21:24Oh, my.
00:21:28What are you doing here?
00:21:30You should be on your knees at Ken's house begging him to take you back.
00:21:35Ken probably kicked her out.
00:21:36That's why she's groveling back to us.
00:21:38Funny, coming from the woman who had her hands down his pants this morning.
00:21:41How dare you insult my baby girl, you wretched child.
00:21:46Well, I wouldn't have to if your baby girl wasn't such a liar and a man-stealer.
00:21:52You're just jealous that Ken chose me.
00:21:55And now without a husband, you're freaking out about the CEO title.
00:21:58I'm glad you mentioned it, because I have something to show you guys.
00:22:06Is...
00:22:06Is that...
00:22:09Marriage certificate?
00:22:11You're married?
00:22:15You're married?
00:22:16Who the hell is this guy?
00:22:19That is none of your business.
00:22:23Wait a minute.
00:22:24Jesse Ross?
00:22:26Is it...
00:22:26Wait, isn't he the billionaire?
00:22:28The son of the...
00:22:29Oh, snap out of your daydream.
00:22:30It's not that Jesse Ross.
00:22:32As if a billionaire CEO would be interested in you.
00:22:35Let me guess.
00:22:37Is it the call boy from the hotel the other night?
00:22:43Homeless.
00:22:45So what if it is?
00:22:48It's my marriage.
00:22:50Why do you care?
00:22:51Are you insane?
00:22:53You are the CEO-to-be of Monroe Construction.
00:22:56What can this loser do for our company?
00:22:59Huh?
00:22:59He's got no connections.
00:23:00He's got no money.
00:23:01He's got nothing.
00:23:02Work is work.
00:23:04Marriage is marriage.
00:23:05If all you're concerned about is money, I'll get you the money.
00:23:08Listen to yourself.
00:23:09What do you think?
00:23:10Money grows on trees?
00:23:12You file for divorce right now, or you never set foot in this house again.
00:23:18Works for me.
00:23:19I don't want to see your faces anyway.
00:23:21I was just here to show you the certificate.
00:23:25Serena!
00:23:28Everything just went so unexpected, Serena.
00:23:31You've been sitting like this all morning, boss.
00:23:34Did something happen?
00:23:35Yeah.
00:23:37This happened.
00:23:39Oh, my...
00:23:40I got married last night.
00:23:41To that girl.
00:23:43Wait, the girl that got you the wool coat?
00:23:45That's amazing, boss.
00:23:47Well, what did you say whenever you told her you'd been looking for her for the last five years?
00:23:51I didn't tell her.
00:23:53What?
00:23:54Why?
00:23:56She's not just a random girl.
00:23:58She's Serena Monroe.
00:24:00The heiress of Monroe Construction and daughter of...
00:24:03Pauline Monroe.
00:24:05And she thinks that my family killed her mother.
00:24:07And to be honest with you, I don't blame her.
00:24:09But it was your uncle who insisted on going after her mother.
00:24:12You were only 23.
00:24:13You weren't even CEO yet.
00:24:15I know, Cooper, but I'm still a Ross.
00:24:16It doesn't change anything.
00:24:18That's why I don't want her to know who I am.
00:24:19She's not right now.
00:24:21Okay, well, I have to say, boss, I don't think this is a very good idea.
00:24:28Okay, well, I have to say, boss, I don't think this is a very good idea.
00:24:31She's been on my mind all these years.
00:24:32I like her.
00:24:35I want to have a chance to get to know her better and to be around her, but I can't do
00:24:39that if she knows who I am.
00:24:41Before she sees me as the Jessie Ross, I need a chance to show her who I really am.
00:24:46Morning, Serena.
00:24:54Hey, where are you?
00:24:56Uh, I am at the construction site selling tacos.
00:25:01Again?
00:25:02Yeah, I need to pay the rent.
00:25:03Well, I'm your new boss now.
00:25:07I sent you an address.
00:25:08Can you come now?
00:25:09Yes, of course.
00:25:10I will be there soon, boss.
00:25:14I gotta get going.
00:25:16And what about your meeting in 30 minutes?
00:25:18Push it back.
00:25:19My only priority right now is Serena to be proud.
00:25:25This is not gonna end well.
00:25:32Tom?
00:25:33Looking amazing as ever.
00:25:35Thank you, Ms. Monroe.
00:25:37So nice to see you.
00:25:40Your dress is ready.
00:25:42I'll be right back.
00:25:43Oh, actually, it's my husband who is coming in today.
00:25:46Who?
00:25:47He needs some decent clothes, some shoes, and definitely a new watch.
00:25:51That's great.
00:25:52Although I'm not sure I can handle all of that today.
00:25:55Um, but, oh, oh, sorry.
00:25:58I'm late.
00:25:59It's Monroe.
00:26:00Why didn't you tell me that your husband was, um, uh, so handsome?
00:26:07Very nice to meet you, Jesse Ross.
00:26:12Wow, I have never been to a store like this.
00:26:14I mean, it must be so expensive.
00:26:17Baby, we don't have to do this if you don't want to.
00:26:20Oh, don't worry about it.
00:26:22I want to.
00:26:25So, can you get his measurements?
00:26:27There's no need.
00:26:32I'm sorry.
00:26:33What I mean is that, uh, you know, I've been doing this for so many years.
00:26:37I can just take one look at him and know exactly what he needs.
00:26:42See, this is why we come here, because Tom is the expert of all experts.
00:26:46All right, okay, so, well, then, uh, Mr. Ross, why don't you, uh, come in the back and I will show you some suits.
00:26:55Great.
00:26:56I will be waiting outside the fitting room.
00:27:03What is going on?
00:27:04Thank you for covering for me.
00:27:06Look, you have an entire rack of suits here that have been custom-tailored for you.
00:27:11Pick three.
00:27:12And we'll try them on.
00:27:13Oh, okay.
00:27:16Whatever you say.
00:27:20Okay.
00:27:22Okay.
00:27:34Hmm.
00:27:36Actually, not bad.
00:27:38Hmm.
00:27:43I like this one, too.
00:27:52What is this magic?
00:27:54Everything fits you like a glove.
00:27:55I'll try it secret.
00:27:56Oh, I'm so sorry.
00:28:07Excuse me.
00:28:08Sorry.
00:28:09Oh, that's okay.
00:28:10I think that we will take all three of them.
00:28:16Oh, yes.
00:28:17Um, uh, actually, today is our annual sale.
00:28:22Fifty percent off everything that you've purchased today.
00:28:25Half off?
00:28:26Tell me you never have sales.
00:28:30Why don't I just go wrap this up for you?
00:28:34Okay.
00:28:36I promise that when I make enough money, I will pay you back.
00:28:41You don't have to pay me back.
00:28:42You're my husband.
00:28:45At least not with money.
00:28:46You know, no one's ever given me that nice of gifts before.
00:29:04Thank you, Serena.
00:29:05Of course.
00:29:06You're my husband now.
00:29:07I want to take care of you.
00:29:09Plus, it's not every day that you see a guy with this good in a suit.
00:29:12Actually, I got you something.
00:29:18Oh, wait.
00:29:19Hold on.
00:29:19Hold on.
00:29:19You first.
00:29:22I know I rushed you into this whole marriage thing, so I thought the least I could do is
00:29:28get you a ring.
00:29:40You know, you didn't rush me into anything.
00:29:42I actually, I need to tell you.
00:29:46If it isn't, Serena Monroe.
00:29:52So, you must be the new husband Serena bought.
00:29:56I mean, chose.
00:30:00You must be the new husband Serena bought.
00:30:02Oh, you must be Ken Snyder, the cheating ex-fiancé she dealt.
00:30:07Anything, I dumped her first.
00:30:08Well, then I have a big thank you to tell you, because she's mine now.
00:30:14You must be paying him a lot, Serena.
00:30:17He's extremely committed to the character.
00:30:19Yeah, I'm really committed.
00:30:21And if you'll excuse us, I'm going to take my wife home.
00:30:24You don't even have your own car?
00:30:35You have to drive Serena's.
00:30:37What kind of loser are you?
00:30:40Loser?
00:30:41I've been called worse by better people.
00:30:57Fucking prick.
00:31:12You're welcome.
00:31:13Wow, I can't wait to see what this place looks like.
00:31:16Wait.
00:31:22Something feels odd.
00:31:26Well, this is me.
00:31:28Drive home safe.
00:31:31Where do you live?
00:31:32Aren't you going to invite me in for some coffee or something?
00:31:35Fuck, I just pulled it over to some random neighborhood.
00:31:37I don't actually live here.
00:31:40Where do you live?
00:31:42Which house is yours?
00:31:43Can I have a tour?
00:31:46Yeah, um, this one.
00:31:48Yeah, I live here.
00:31:50But, uh, maybe next time.
00:31:52See, the thing is that I'm renting.
00:31:54I get a lot of roommates.
00:31:55Six guys and me.
00:31:56It gets messy, dirty, and...
00:31:58Wait, you're telling me seven people live in this house?
00:32:00Cramped up?
00:32:01Is that even legal?
00:32:03You know, the housing market's, like, so expensive nowadays, so...
00:32:08Anyways, drive home safe.
00:32:12Okay.
00:32:12Is he hiding another woman in that house?
00:32:19No, really.
00:32:20You can go.
00:32:21I will.
00:32:22As soon as you get inside.
00:32:25Okay.
00:32:25Fine.
00:32:35Give this to yourself.
00:32:36Just a girl.
00:32:37Just a girl.
00:32:38I forgot my keys.
00:32:43What?
00:32:45Six other people live there.
00:32:47Just knock.
00:32:47I'm sure someone's home.
00:32:48Fuck it.
00:33:00Please don't let me out.
00:33:01Please don't let me out.
00:33:02Please don't let me out.
00:33:11Who are you?
00:33:12I'm not buying anything.
00:33:13Go away.
00:33:14Hey, friend.
00:33:15I forgot my keys.
00:33:17If you could just let me inside so we can, uh...
00:33:20Can you just let me inside?
00:33:23I'll pay you wherever you want.
00:33:24I'll pay you.
00:33:24Go away.
00:33:25Hey, what's wrong with you?
00:33:27Whoa, whoa, whoa.
00:33:27Go away.
00:33:28No!
00:33:29You two are who?
00:33:30I don't know you.
00:33:31You have to go.
00:33:32You have to go?
00:33:32Go away.
00:33:34Go away.
00:33:39Excuse me.
00:33:42What?
00:33:43What the fuck is that?
00:33:45What was that for?
00:33:57Do I need a reason to kiss my wife?
00:34:00What's wrong with your roommate?
00:34:02He said that he is very busy with a girl right now, if you know what I mean.
00:34:07And he asked me to come back later.
00:34:09Wait.
00:34:10You know Chinese?
00:34:11A little.
00:34:12Yeah.
00:34:13I'm not fluent, though.
00:34:14It's kind of cool.
00:34:15But you live here.
00:34:17He can't just treat you like that.
00:34:18Oh, no, no, no.
00:34:20I'm actually going to go to a friend's house, hang out for a little bit, and I'll come back
00:34:23later.
00:34:23It is no worries at all.
00:34:25No.
00:34:26Let's go.
00:34:28To where?
00:34:29You're my husband.
00:34:30I can't let you just live like this.
00:34:32I'm going to buy you a house.
00:34:34Are you serious?
00:34:36Of course.
00:34:36Let's go.
00:34:37Let's go.
00:34:37I do not like the Rosses, but I do have to admit, they have some of the best real estate
00:34:47in the city.
00:34:49This is their new developmental project.
00:34:52I am.
00:34:53I love it.
00:34:54But $2 million is a big purchase.
00:34:58Purchase?
00:34:59I'll give you this whole neighborhood if you want it.
00:35:01All right, Miss Monroe.
00:35:03Welcome to the one and only Lawrence Station Home.
00:35:06I heard you're interested in purchasing property?
00:35:10Boss?
00:35:13Even this young man thinks you're the boss of the relationship.
00:35:17My wife would like to have a tour of your model home.
00:35:22Certainly.
00:35:23If you'd kindly step into the living room.
00:35:26Ladies first.
00:35:32You don't remember, boss?
00:35:33You told me to come to the new model home and make sure everything was running smoothly.
00:35:39I'm sorry.
00:35:40I'm sorry.
00:35:41Just don't blow my cover.
00:35:44Your secret is safe with me, boss.
00:35:46Always.
00:35:48But you know, funny thing, though.
00:35:50I have another Miss Monroe on my schedule.
00:36:00Ugh, Serena?
00:36:02There are 8.5 million people in LA.
00:36:05How come I keep running into you two cheaters?
00:36:07I'll go wherever I want.
00:36:08What do you think?
00:36:09You own the city?
00:36:10Oh, my God.
00:36:12Did you pay for your own wedding ring yourself?
00:36:15That's the saddest thing I've ever seen, sis.
00:36:16Oh, really?
00:36:18Because I think I'm looking at the saddest thing I've ever seen.
00:36:21Take that back, you bitch.
00:36:23Hey, watch it.
00:36:26You lay one hand on her, you'll regret it for the rest of your life.
00:36:29Take it easy.
00:36:30Take your claws off me, call boy.
00:36:33What?
00:36:34You think you're all high and mighty?
00:36:36Why don't you scram and go back to where you came from?
00:36:39Call boy?
00:36:40Anyway, if you two are interested in this unit, you could forget it.
00:36:44Because we're getting it.
00:36:46Right, Ken?
00:36:46Anything my baby wants.
00:36:51If you two are interested in this unit, you could forget it.
00:36:54Because we're getting it.
00:36:55Right, Ken?
00:36:56Anything my baby wants.
00:36:58Cash.
00:36:59Down payment.
00:37:00Now go get us that contract.
00:37:01Mr. Schneider, I know that there's nothing you can do about your face.
00:37:06What did you just say?
00:37:07But have your parents ever taught you to get in line and wait your turn on the playground?
00:37:11Those rules might apply to your peasant world, picking up hot dogs.
00:37:15But in this world, my friend, money is the only express pass.
00:37:21Now what are you waiting for?
00:37:23Go fetch my contract.
00:37:24Actually, Mrs. Monroe has already reserved the unit.
00:37:29What?
00:37:30When?
00:37:35Mrs. Monroe has already reserved the unit.
00:37:38What?
00:37:39When?
00:37:40That's impossible.
00:37:41I made that down payment first.
00:37:43Yeah, well, Mrs. Monroe is the CEO of Monroe Construction.
00:37:47And as one of our VIP clients, she can reserve any unit at any time without a down payment.
00:37:54But I wouldn't expect you to know that.
00:37:56Are you insane?
00:37:58Do you know who you're talking to?
00:38:01This is Ken Snyder.
00:38:03Snyder?
00:38:04Oh, I'm afraid I've never heard that name before.
00:38:07Well, if you guys will excuse us, me and Serena have some paperwork we should be signing.
00:38:14Fine.
00:38:15We don't want your fucking model home anyway.
00:38:18Oh, hey Ken.
00:38:20No cussing.
00:38:21My house, my rules.
00:38:23Let's go, Ken.
00:38:29Looks like the express pass didn't work this time.
00:38:36What?
00:38:37Did I say something wrong?
00:38:40Did I say something wrong?
00:38:42That was fucking amazing.
00:38:45Hey.
00:38:46Watch your language.
00:38:48I'm too excited.
00:38:51But since when did I become a VIP?
00:38:54From the moment you walked in.
00:38:55Well, if you put it that way, I think I need to buy it.
00:38:59Ah, and we're having a half-off sale because it's a model home.
00:39:04You get to keep the furniture, too.
00:39:07Am I dreaming?
00:39:08I have to be dreaming, Jesse.
00:39:09Pinch me.
00:39:11I think this is real, Serena.
00:39:12I'll go fetch the papers.
00:39:15I'll go fetch the papers.
00:39:16This is amazing.
00:39:23Welcome to your new home, Jesse.
00:39:26How about we call it our home.
00:39:34How about we call it our home?
00:39:40What?
00:39:41What do you mean?
00:39:42I just got this model home for you because I need you to move in ASAP.
00:39:47Look, it's already furnished and everything.
00:39:49I know.
00:39:50It's so spacious.
00:39:51But I want to live here with you.
00:39:54Build a home.
00:39:56Just us.
00:39:56You really want to do that with me?
00:40:00Why do you keep doubting that I want to be with you?
00:40:05I guess I just haven't felt wanted lately.
00:40:09Well, Serena Monroe, I want you more than anything.
00:40:18This is a pretty big house.
00:40:20Lots of empty rooms.
00:40:23All right.
00:40:24Just so we're clear, I get the master bedroom.
00:40:26Anything you want, sweetheart.
00:40:30Yes, don't touch.
00:40:31Okay.
00:40:33All right.
00:40:37It's been such a long day.
00:40:39Are you hungry?
00:40:40I'm starving.
00:40:42I think I know just the place to go.
00:40:45This is my favorite restaurant.
00:40:48They have the best steak in the city.
00:40:50Wow, I cannot imagine what a dish must cost around here.
00:40:54Oh, don't worry about it.
00:40:55Get whatever you want.
00:40:56It's on me anyway.
00:40:58Besides, I saved about a million dollars tonight.
00:41:04Welcome to LaBelle.
00:41:06Good to see you.
00:41:07How'd you meet you, sir?
00:41:08My name is Jesse Ross.
00:41:09I'm very excited to be at your establishment for the very first time.
00:41:13Great to have you here, Mr. Ross.
00:41:16I am Leonard, the manager.
00:41:17And the lady must be your date for the night.
00:41:20My wife.
00:41:21Miss Serena Monroe.
00:41:23Congratulations on the new marriage.
00:41:25Please, follow me.
00:41:27Wait, how did you know that we recently got married?
00:41:33Wait, how did you know that we recently got married?
00:41:36You know, I've seen so many newlywitted couples come to this place to celebrate.
00:41:41They all have this, uh, special glow.
00:41:44Wow.
00:41:45That's very romantic.
00:41:48I guess we do have a lot to celebrate.
00:41:51Perfect.
00:41:52Let me lead you to your table.
00:41:53We have this table for the two of you.
00:41:58Miss Monroe.
00:42:00Perfect.
00:42:12Thank you, sir.
00:42:13You're welcome, sir.
00:42:20Something wrong?
00:42:21No, nothing.
00:42:23Actually, this day has gone by so perfectly, it actually feels unreal.
00:42:29Well, it must be luck.
00:42:33No, it's, it's you.
00:42:37It's you.
00:42:39Ever since I met you, everything just keeps falling into place.
00:42:43Bring so much fortune to my life.
00:42:47I think you're my lucky star, Jesse.
00:42:49You are a glow.
00:43:03You are a glow.
00:43:08For some reason, I really like having him around.
00:43:12Should I hire him?
00:43:15Do I have something in my face?
00:43:17Um, no.
00:43:19It's not that.
00:43:20I was actually thinking, since you are my lucky star, why don't you come look with me?
00:43:27I'm my company.
00:43:29I could use the luck.
00:43:32And I like having you around.
00:43:34Well, if you say it like that, where do I have fun?
00:43:41Oh, there you are.
00:43:45And you're the secret husband she's been hiding from me.
00:43:49He's not just okay, he's hot.
00:43:51Way to go, bro.
00:43:52Lynn.
00:43:53How?
00:43:54I'm Lynn.
00:43:55Serena's best friend, assistant, therapist.
00:43:58Well, I'm hoping to take some of that responsibility off from now on.
00:44:02I like him.
00:44:03Great.
00:44:04Because I brought him here to do an interview with you.
00:44:07An interview for what?
00:44:08Anything.
00:44:10Just find him something to do.
00:44:12No pressure.
00:44:13Just try best.
00:44:15Wait, Serena.
00:44:17This woman, I swear.
00:44:18I know, right?
00:44:19Well, let's get to it.
00:44:21Okay.
00:44:28What are you doing in my office?
00:44:38What are you doing in my office?
00:44:40And get out of my chair.
00:44:41You're getting your stench all over it.
00:44:43Always so high and mighty, aren't we, Serena?
00:44:47Guess you haven't heard the news.
00:44:49The Johnsons decided to pull out of your biggest project in Williamsburg.
00:44:53Guess they don't trust you with their money.
00:44:55No need to be nervous, okay?
00:44:56We'll just chat a bit.
00:44:58Sounds good to me, yeah.
00:44:59So you have your resume on you?
00:45:01Yeah, I do, yeah.
00:45:03I've done a little bit of this, a little bit of that, but nothing too serious.
00:45:07Serena chose you as for Prince Charming.
00:45:10I'm sure you've done something incredible.
00:45:15You went to Harvard?
00:45:16Yes, yeah.
00:45:17You were the chief designer of reconstruction of Shangri-La, Shanghai.
00:45:21That is correct, yeah.
00:45:22And you designed Crazy Mabel Plaza in Silicon Valley.
00:45:26You know, with your resume, you could have a job in the industry anywhere in the world.
00:45:33I know.
00:45:35But there's only one Serena Moreau.
00:45:39She's the most important thing to me.
00:45:40That's impossible.
00:45:45I just met with the COO last week.
00:45:48Wait, Ken went to college with him.
00:45:52You two did this.
00:45:55Don't point fingers when you can't even manage your own company.
00:45:58You start as CEO next week.
00:46:00What are you going to do?
00:46:04Well, as her assistant, I should be critical and grill you with more questions.
00:46:10But as her best friend, I feel like she is so lucky to have you.
00:46:18Face it, Serena.
00:46:21Serena's office.
00:46:23Shit.
00:46:23I think I recognize that voice.
00:46:26Carol Monroe.
00:46:28Not you again.
00:46:34Oh, you start as CEO next week.
00:46:37What are you going to do?
00:46:39I'll find a solution.
00:46:40I'm not losing the Johnson case.
00:46:43There's a fine line between confidence and stupidity, Serena.
00:46:47You want a piece of free advice?
00:46:48Quit right now.
00:46:50I'll die before I let go of this company.
00:46:52Face it, Serena.
00:46:55Without the Johnson's money, you're going to lose the biggest case of your life.
00:46:59And I don't really think the board is going to be too happy about that.
00:47:03But I'll see if I can have Ken call them to change their minds.
00:47:08And all you'll have to do...
00:47:11is get down on your hands and knees...
00:47:15and beg me.
00:47:18What's more important to you?
00:47:19Your ego?
00:47:20Or your dead mother's company?
00:47:22Keep dreaming, Carol.
00:47:25Great.
00:47:26Looking forward to seeing you get fired.
00:47:33Wait.
00:47:44Wait.
00:47:44Wait.
00:47:44Don't do it.
00:48:04You again?
00:48:05You know what?
00:48:06Don't steal my line.
00:48:07How dare you bully my wife like that?
00:48:09I didn't do anything.
00:48:10It's the Johnsons that pulled out of her project.
00:48:14Not anymore.
00:48:19Vincent.
00:48:20It's Jesse.
00:48:21Hello.
00:48:22I'm good, bro.
00:48:23Yeah.
00:48:23Hey, I have a question for you.
00:48:25I heard you're pulling out of the Monroe Project.
00:48:27Yeah?
00:48:27Oh, that would be amazing.
00:48:30Hey, I really appreciate it.
00:48:32Thank you so much.
00:48:32All right?
00:48:34All right.
00:48:34We'll talk soon.
00:48:35Be safe.
00:48:36Bye.
00:48:37All taken care of.
00:48:38Serena?
00:48:39Thank you, the project.
00:48:40But the Johnsons...
00:48:41The Johnsons just agreed to sell the project for $20 million to Ross the Instruction, and
00:48:45they're going to continue to fund the Serena's project.
00:48:47You're lying.
00:48:50Okay, you're lying.
00:48:52The Rosses wouldn't just donate $20 million to some project.
00:48:55You're more than welcome to call Vincent if you'd like yourself.
00:48:58But I doubt you have his phone number.
00:49:01Serena?
00:49:02It's all taken care of.
00:49:04Mark my words, Serena.
00:49:05Your luck will run out soon.
00:49:06And when it does, I'll be in the front row waiting for that day.
00:49:09Oh, my God.
00:49:17Does she always say that I'm like that?
00:49:22What's wrong?
00:49:23I thought you'd be happy about all this.
00:49:25I am happy that the project is being saved, but I don't know how I feel about it being with
00:49:32Rosses.
00:49:34Serena.
00:49:35Wait, how do you know Vincent Johnson?
00:49:38Oh, shit.
00:49:39What should I tell her?
00:49:40I, uh, I've helped him with some stuff, yeah.
00:49:47Aw, I knew I was afraid about you.
00:49:50Jesse Ross, how do you always end up being at the right place at the right time?
00:49:56Oh, that was close.
00:49:57Because I only do it for the right person.
00:50:02Stop, we're at the office.
00:50:07How was your interview, by the way?
00:50:09I don't know, you tell me.
00:50:10How was my performance back there, huh?
00:50:13You're hired as my personal assistant.
00:50:16Perfect.
00:50:17I've been dreaming of this day my whole life.
00:50:18Hey, see you at work.
00:50:25Bye.
00:50:28Cooper.
00:50:29Hey, uh, I wanted to let you know I am stepping away from the company for a little while.
00:50:33What?
00:50:34Why?
00:50:34I accepted a job offer for my wife as her assistant.
00:50:37Wait, boss.
00:50:38Your company makes millions of dollars a month and you're tossing it aside for no good reason?
00:50:42Well, I'm doing it to be with Serena.
00:50:44That's the best reason.
00:50:46I'm not tossing it aside.
00:50:47I'm leaving it in your care while I'm gone.
00:50:49Oh, okay, yeah.
00:50:51Easy for you to say, boss.
00:50:52I trust you, Cooper.
00:50:54Okay?
00:50:54You can do it.
00:50:55All right, bye.
00:50:57Wait, hold on a second, boss.
00:50:59Wait.
00:51:15Surprise.
00:51:19Surprise.
00:51:22Did you do all of this?
00:51:25Anything for my wife?
00:51:30Is that my apron?
00:51:35Okay, you can laugh all you want.
00:51:37I am not getting a stain on this shirt.
00:51:39Who says that I'm laughing?
00:51:42Actually, I think it is quite sexy.
00:51:46You're the first man who's ever cooked for me.
00:51:49Really?
00:51:50No one's ever done this for you?
00:51:52Men in my world are not like you, Jessie.
00:51:53They wear $5,000 suits, play golf, and they only care about two things.
00:52:00Spending money and how to make more of it.
00:52:03You're full of surprises.
00:52:05You're pretty special.
00:52:07You say the word, and I will do this for you every single day, for the rest of your life.
00:52:18Or the rest of your life.
00:52:24Or as long as you'll have me.
00:52:27Well, I have to taste test this first.
00:52:31All right.
00:52:32Ladies first.
00:52:33Fair warning.
00:52:34I'm pretty picky.
00:52:35I'll take my chances.
00:52:36I'll take my chances.
00:52:43This is amazing.
00:52:45Um, you have a little something.
00:52:49Hmm.
00:52:52A little something.
00:52:53Oh.
00:52:54This is too good to be true.
00:53:08You're too good to be true.
00:53:12I don't want to keep doing this to you.
00:53:15What are you talking about, Serena?
00:53:18I think we should end this.
00:53:21Oh, no.
00:53:21Did she find out who I am?
00:53:23I think we should end this.
00:53:26I proposed to you only to become CEO, and you ended up being so special.
00:53:32Okay, I'm going to stop you right there.
00:53:34Yes, you did ask me to marry you.
00:53:37But have you ever thought about why I said yes?
00:53:40Because I'm paying you?
00:53:42$10,000 a month is a lot.
00:53:44Yes.
00:53:45But it's not enough to make me stay.
00:53:48I stay because I like you.
00:53:50And I'm falling for you, Serena.
00:53:53Really?
00:53:56You're falling for me?
00:53:59Yes.
00:54:01Now.
00:54:04Shall we?
00:54:12So you can dance.
00:54:14Hmm.
00:54:15Do you have any other secrets that you're hiding from me, Jesse Ross?
00:54:19I guess we'll find out.
00:54:24Actually, I think I have a secret to tell you.
00:54:31Actually, I have a secret to tell you.
00:54:34I think I'm falling for you, too.
00:54:45Well, then.
00:54:47I guess we'll just call it even.
00:54:49Well, then, I think I'm going to go.
00:55:01Okay.
00:55:03Oh, well.
00:55:04I don't know.
00:55:05Why don't you want to do it?
00:55:06It's the olacak.
00:55:06I don't know.
00:55:06I don't know.
00:55:07I don't know.
00:55:08I don't know.
00:55:09I don't know.
00:55:11I don't know.
00:55:11I don't know.
00:55:13But, if I don't know.
00:55:15Do you know that when two people look at each other's eyes long enough, their heartbeats
00:55:30synchronize?
00:55:33No way.
00:55:34You just made that up.
00:55:35I'm serious.
00:55:37Feel it.
00:55:45Serena, do you hate Jesse Ross?
00:55:56Do you hate Jesse Ross?
00:55:59I, I don't know.
00:56:02I know he just recently took over the company a year ago, and it was his Uncle Alfred who
00:56:09was going after my mom, not him.
00:56:12But he's still a Ross.
00:56:13I don't know if I can look past that.
00:56:18I've never told anybody this, but even though my mom has been gone for five years, sometimes
00:56:27I pretend she's just traveling, and she'll come back one day.
00:56:36She was the only one that ever truly loved me.
00:56:38That's why I can't let go of this company.
00:56:43If I lose this, then I lose everything of her.
00:56:49I'm sorry that you had to do it alone.
00:56:51It was hard.
00:56:53I'm not alone anymore.
00:56:56I have you.
00:56:57I haven't felt like this in a really, really long time.
00:57:05Like what?
00:57:07Like home.
00:57:08We're going to have to move.
00:57:29If this is what you want to do, you can do that.
00:57:31But you're going to have to move it all the way.
00:57:33This is the CEO office.
00:57:35Dad, have you ever heard of knocking?
00:57:37You think you're such a hero for securing funds from Ross Construction, do you?
00:57:42Here, why don't you take a look at this?
00:57:45Serena Monroe broke our engagement and then married another man in less than 24 hours.
00:57:51She broke my heart.
00:57:52Worse than that, she broke my trust.
00:57:54And that is why I am hereby terminating all partnerships with Mondo Constructions.
00:58:02He cheats on me first and then he wants to go off about trust.
00:58:06That's funny.
00:58:07I don't care who cheated on whom.
00:58:09You ruined our relationship with Ken and now our business is sinking.
00:58:14Dad, you don't care about the company.
00:58:17You just want the bribe that Ken said he'd give you.
00:58:20How dare you accuse your father of this?
00:58:23How dare you accuse your father of this?
00:58:32Get your hands over me, you asshole!
00:58:34Anyone that hurts Serena, I'll hurt them first.
00:58:36You understand?
00:58:37You've got two options.
00:58:38You either walk out the door yourself or I'll throw you out.
00:58:41Huh?
00:58:41What is it?
00:58:42What are you going to do?
00:58:47That's what I thought.
00:58:50Who the hell is this?
00:58:52Jesse Ross.
00:58:53Serena's husband and personal assistant.
00:58:55You hired him?
00:58:57What is this, a homeless shelter?
00:58:59His resume was approved by HR.
00:59:01He got here fair and square, unlike you, who took Mom's seat on the board as soon as she passed.
00:59:07I swear, you mark my words, Serena.
00:59:09You're going to regret losing all the money that you had in projects with Ken.
00:59:14The big board meeting is tomorrow.
00:59:16And if you can't dig your way out of this, you can kiss this company goodbye.
00:59:29You okay?
00:59:32Don't worry about it.
00:59:33No, Jesse, he's right.
00:59:35I'm going to lose the company.
00:59:38No, Jesse, he's right.
00:59:40I'm going to lose the company.
00:59:41What are you talking about?
00:59:43You're Serena Moreau.
00:59:44You'll figure it out.
00:59:45I know my wife.
00:59:47No, but the board doesn't, Jesse.
00:59:49And if I don't get enough business for the company, they're going to vote me out.
00:59:53I promised my mom and I'm failing her.
00:59:55Look at me.
00:59:56It's going to be okay.
00:59:58I will help you figure this out.
01:00:01We'll figure it out together, all right?
01:00:02The board meeting is in 24 hours, Jesse.
01:00:04No one can fix this.
01:00:09I know one person.
01:00:13I have an idea.
01:00:14And you're not going to like it.
01:00:15You're going to say no.
01:00:17But you've got to hear me out first.
01:00:20You need to call Jesse Ross and set up an in-person meeting with him.
01:00:28You need to call Jesse Ross and set up an in-person meeting with him.
01:00:32That is the only company in this industry that can handle all the properties of Kent's.
01:00:37This could be your only chance to actually save the company's rent.
01:00:40Do you understand?
01:00:40And this could be his shot to right the wrong that his family did to you.
01:00:44Even if I did call him up, everyone wants to work with him.
01:00:48Why would he choose me?
01:00:49He's chosen you before.
01:00:50I have a feeling that he could choose you again.
01:00:56I have to step out for a minute.
01:00:58But trust me, call him.
01:01:08What should I do, Mom?
01:01:11Promise me that you'll find someone kind.
01:01:14Someone you trust.
01:01:16Take over the company when you turn 28.
01:01:19Keep our legacy.
01:01:20See?
01:01:28Hello?
01:01:31Boss.
01:01:31Your wife.
01:01:33I mean, Miss Monroe.
01:01:34He's on the line.
01:01:36Put her on.
01:01:36Good morning, Mr. Ross.
01:01:41This is Serena Monroe from Monroe Construction.
01:01:44It's a pleasure to hear from you, Miss Monroe.
01:01:46Why does his voice sound so familiar?
01:01:48Is there anything that I can do for you?
01:01:51Yes.
01:01:51Actually, since we are officially doing business together, I think there are a few projects that would be perfect for your company.
01:01:57And I was wondering if you would be interested in meeting tonight in person to discuss our future together.
01:02:05That sounds wonderful.
01:02:07I would love to finally meet you in person, Miss Monroe.
01:02:11Oh, and may I just say, I really admire what you are doing over at that company.
01:02:15I think you're a very bright and strong woman.
01:02:20Thank you, Mr. Ross.
01:02:22Please, call me Jesse.
01:02:24See you tonight then, Jesse.
01:02:28It's a lot nicer than I thought.
01:02:34Okay, this might be my last night with you, Serena, but I'm just going to tell you the truth and hope for the best.
01:02:42Jesse, I don't know if I can do this.
01:02:47I'm freaking out right now.
01:02:48Look at me.
01:02:49Everything is going to be okay tonight, all right?
01:02:51I promise.
01:02:53How can you be so sure?
01:02:54Because you're amazing, and he will see that.
01:02:57And we're also named Jesse Ross, so, like, I basically know how his brain works.
01:03:02That wasn't scientific at all.
01:03:04But it worked, didn't it?
01:03:06Guess what?
01:03:07I have a surprise for you.
01:03:09Okay.
01:03:10Come with me.
01:03:12Where did you find such a place?
01:03:20Well, I know the owner, and he agreed to lend it to me.
01:03:24I mean, I figured we never had a first date, so, uh, why not?
01:03:32This is beautiful, Jesse.
01:03:34It really is.
01:03:36Wait, don't move.
01:03:37Why?
01:03:42I'm trying to see if our heartbeats synchronize.
01:03:46And what do you think?
01:03:48I can't tell.
01:03:50It seems like yours is getting faster and faster.
01:03:54And who's fault of it?
01:03:56I don't know.
01:04:04I'm lucky to have found you, Serena.
01:04:07Me too, Jesse.
01:04:08You know, something weird happened earlier when I was on the phone with Jesse Ross.
01:04:14I saw your face.
01:04:15It was like you had some weird familiarity somehow.
01:04:27Must have been a deja vu moment.
01:04:32It must be.
01:04:33Oh, my God.
01:04:38I'm an idiot.
01:04:40Is it finally time?
01:04:41You planned this whole date for us, and here I am, talking about another man.
01:04:49So sorry, I...
01:04:51It's okay.
01:04:53I am just glad to be in this moment with you.
01:04:58Well, Jesse, I'm your wife.
01:05:01You have your whole life to spend with me.
01:05:04And mark my words, Jesse Ross, you're not going to get rid of me that easy.
01:05:08That I am the luckiest man in the world.
01:05:13I love you.
01:05:16You have no idea how much I wish you'd never know who I really am.
01:05:23I love you too, Jesse.
01:05:38Well, I guess we're back where it all started.
01:05:48I guess we are.
01:05:49I'll just meet you out there.
01:06:10Serena?
01:06:12Serena?
01:06:18Nothing.
01:06:20Go ahead.
01:06:24Serena, I promise I will tell you everything when I'm done.
01:06:31Alfred?
01:06:32Jesse, did you really think you could keep Serena Monroe a secret from me?
01:06:37Stay out of it.
01:06:38Okay, this is between me and her.
01:06:41Not anymore.
01:06:43Come up to my suite.
01:06:45We need to talk.
01:06:56Okay, five more minutes.
01:06:59I thought you were in Europe.
01:07:23You wouldn't return my calls, Jesse.
01:07:25So I thought, either you're in trouble, or you're hiding something from me.
01:07:33Turns out, both my guesses are correct.
01:07:37Me and Serena are married.
01:07:38I'm investing in her projects so she can keep her company.
01:07:41You can't do anything about it.
01:07:45You've always been a hopeless romantic, Jesse.
01:07:48And that's the worst quality a CEO can have.
01:07:50Now, don't get me wrong, I'm proud of you for gaining Serena Monroe's trust.
01:07:58She never would have agreed to sit down with me.
01:08:00And I do like her projects.
01:08:02But then I thought, why fund her when I can take over her entire company?
01:08:09Why fund her when I can take over her entire company?
01:08:12She's given everything for that company.
01:08:13You can't just take it from her.
01:08:15I'm not taking anything I'm buying.
01:08:19I'm going to make her a decent offer.
01:08:21And if she's smart enough, she'll take it.
01:08:23I'm not going to let you do that.
01:08:26I know you won't.
01:08:28Which is why I have to do this.
01:08:32Alfred.
01:08:34Alfred!
01:08:35Hey!
01:08:37No, no, no, no!
01:08:39Hey, hey!
01:08:40Alfred!
01:08:41Alfred!
01:08:41Alfred!
01:08:45I see you've noticed the proposal I drafted for us, Ms. Monroe.
01:08:56Alfred Ross.
01:09:00Alfred Ross.
01:09:01I know you're expecting my nephew.
01:09:04However, I just had a chat with him.
01:09:07And unfortunately, we were unable to come to terms on our business strategy.
01:09:11Business strategy?
01:09:12Is that what you call trying to force a dying woman to sell her company?
01:09:17I understand your frustration, Ms. Monroe.
01:09:20But I'm a businessman.
01:09:22So is your mother.
01:09:23A successful one, I might add.
01:09:25She knew the rules of the game.
01:09:27And so do you.
01:09:30Fuck!
01:09:31Fuck!
01:09:32I don't mean to be rude, Mr. Ross.
01:09:38But it seems that we have too much history to continue this conversation.
01:09:45I'd like to speak with your nephew, if I may.
01:09:48Unfortunately, Jesse is currently occupied.
01:09:51But I assure you, Ms. Monroe, I speak for the both of us.
01:09:54After all...
01:09:55After all...
01:09:56We are family.
01:10:05Jesse's phone.
01:10:08He's your nephew.
01:10:11He's the Jesse Ross.
01:10:13Now, I know all about your situation, Ms. Monroe.
01:10:18I assure you, I have your best solution right here.
01:10:21I'm never selling my company.
01:10:24Especially not to you.
01:10:27Well, I knew you'd say that.
01:10:29But to me, it's really all the same.
01:10:32You see, it's simple.
01:10:34Either you sign these papers now and sell to me,
01:10:37or tomorrow you get voted out by your board.
01:10:40Your stocks crash, and I buy it cheap.
01:10:43Whatever you choose, Ms. Monroe,
01:10:45I'll get what I want.
01:10:54Shit!
01:10:55Hey!
01:10:56Somebody let me out!
01:11:00Cooper!
01:11:00How'd you find me?
01:11:01I couldn't reach you, boss.
01:11:02So, I tracked your phone to this hotel.
01:11:04I saw your uncle down in the lobby with your phone,
01:11:07so I knew something was off.
01:11:09The front desk told me he checked into this room.
01:11:11Alfred is forcing Serena to sell the company.
01:11:13We need to get down there right now.
01:11:15Okay.
01:11:20So, everything he did
01:11:22was to get close to me.
01:11:25To get my company.
01:11:27Are there any other secrets you're hiding from me, Jesse Ross?
01:11:31I guess we'll find out.
01:11:32You know, something weird happened earlier
01:11:35when I was on the phone with Jesse Ross.
01:11:37I saw your face.
01:11:40Love clouds one's vision.
01:11:42And as you know, in this business,
01:11:44your vision must always be crystal clear.
01:11:49Sign this.
01:11:51You'll get a fair price,
01:11:52board seat, and your share of stocks.
01:11:54or
01:11:56wait till tomorrow
01:11:58and let your board decide
01:11:59the fate of your company.
01:12:01Like I said,
01:12:02it's really all the same to me.
01:12:12Promise me, Serena.
01:12:14Take over the company
01:12:15when you turn 28.
01:12:17And keep your legacy.
01:12:19I'm sorry, Mom.
01:12:21I'm tired.
01:12:22I'm tired.
01:12:22Don't do it, Serena.
01:12:29Jesse, what the hell are you doing?
01:12:31You keep me in a hotel room
01:12:33so you can force Serena
01:12:34to sign an acquisition contract?
01:12:35You gotta stop this, Alfred.
01:12:37It's been five years
01:12:38since you tried to
01:12:39take Serena's mother
01:12:40and make her sign a contract
01:12:41when she was dying of cancer.
01:12:42What, are you gonna do it again?
01:12:43I don't care who I have to lock up
01:12:45and who's dying.
01:12:46This is fucking business,
01:12:47and I do it all over again
01:12:48for my company.
01:12:49Cooper, you got it?
01:12:52Loud and clear.
01:12:54I don't care who I have to lock up
01:12:55and who's dying.
01:12:56This is fucking business,
01:12:57and I do it all over again
01:12:58for my company.
01:12:59Now I'm gonna bring that recording
01:13:03to the board of my company,
01:13:05and we're gonna see
01:13:06if your business strategy
01:13:07is aligned with us.
01:13:08But if you want my advice,
01:13:10you better start packing.
01:13:12How dare you?
01:13:13I am your uncle.
01:13:15This is our family business.
01:13:16Not anymore.
01:13:17I'm CEO of Ross Construction,
01:13:19and we're gonna do this my way.
01:13:21You know what?
01:13:22You better leave now
01:13:23before I make you.
01:13:24Hold on.
01:13:29You're forgetting something.
01:13:30Serena, Serena, I-I can explain.
01:13:53No, don't tell me
01:13:54that you can explain.
01:13:55Weren't you lucky
01:13:56that I happened to stumble
01:13:57into the wrong hotel room
01:13:58that one night?
01:13:59I poured my heart out to you,
01:14:01and you've been lying
01:14:02to me this whole time.
01:14:03The marriage, the house,
01:14:06even this meeting,
01:14:07all for what?
01:14:08So you can earn my business,
01:14:11redeem your name,
01:14:12pretend that you're
01:14:13some good person?
01:14:14No, none of that at all, actually.
01:14:17Then why did you do this?
01:14:20Because I fell in love
01:14:21with you five years ago.
01:14:22I didn't know anything about you,
01:14:31but I thought about you
01:14:32every single day
01:14:34for five years.
01:14:38It was Winter.
01:14:40You got robbed,
01:14:41and I gave you my coat.
01:14:43I thought I would never
01:14:43see you again.
01:14:45And then you walk
01:14:46into my hotel room.
01:14:47I was shocked.
01:14:48But then I realized
01:14:49that my family hurt you
01:14:51and how much you hated me.
01:14:54So you pretend
01:14:54to be my escort?
01:14:57What, to get close to me?
01:14:58To become my best friend?
01:15:03You can't do this
01:15:04to me, Jesse.
01:15:05You lied to me.
01:15:06You manipulated me.
01:15:07You created this
01:15:08fairy tale of us.
01:15:11You made me fall in love
01:15:12with somebody
01:15:12who doesn't even exist.
01:15:13Sherina,
01:15:18did you really?
01:15:21Did you fall in love
01:15:22with me?
01:15:31Did you really fall
01:15:32in love with me?
01:15:32I can't.
01:15:33I can't do this, Jesse.
01:15:36I am sorry
01:15:38that I lied to you.
01:15:40You have every right
01:15:41to be mad.
01:15:43But I don't want
01:15:44to lose you again.
01:15:47And you know
01:15:48that everything
01:15:49that we have here
01:15:50is real.
01:15:52You know that.
01:15:55It's so much easier
01:15:56to hate you
01:15:57than to love you.
01:15:57It's so much easier
01:16:14to hate you
01:16:14than to love you, Jesse.
01:16:15Serena, wait.
01:16:26It's done.
01:16:27I'm losing the company
01:16:28tomorrow.
01:16:29I'm just going to
01:16:29leave L.A., okay?
01:16:30No, it's not.
01:16:32Because you never
01:16:32said it was.
01:16:34What are you talking about?
01:16:36I told myself
01:16:37to let you hate me
01:16:38and to let you go.
01:16:39But you never said it.
01:16:40I've been waiting
01:16:46for the right time
01:16:47to give you this.
01:16:51I know that you
01:16:52lost your home
01:16:52and you lost your mother
01:16:53and that it's very hard
01:16:54to believe in somebody
01:16:55you can.
01:16:56But if you can change
01:16:57your mind,
01:16:58I can be your home.
01:17:00I'm still the same
01:17:06person that you
01:17:07fell in love with
01:17:08and I can keep
01:17:09waiting for you.
01:17:11I've done it
01:17:11for five years.
01:17:12I can do it again.
01:17:21Jesse, I can't.
01:17:28Because I already
01:17:29proposed to you once.
01:17:31Now it's your turn.
01:17:34And you have to
01:17:35do it right.
01:17:42All right.
01:17:46Serena Monroe.
01:17:50Will you marry me
01:17:51again?
01:17:55Yes.
01:17:59I love you,
01:18:06Serena Monroe.
01:18:07I love you too,
01:18:08Jesse.
01:18:08Are there any more
01:18:11secrets that you need
01:18:12to tell me?
01:18:14No, anymore.
01:18:16I promise.
01:18:17give it all the way,
01:18:21all the way.
01:18:22With you,
01:18:22I know I'll be okay.
01:18:25Girl,
01:18:25there ain't nothing
01:18:26I wouldn't do.
01:18:42All right.
01:18:43it's official.
01:18:44Robert and
01:18:45Carolyn Monroe are
01:18:46officially off the board
01:18:47and are no longer
01:18:49entitled to your company.
01:18:51How does it feel,
01:18:52Madam CEO?
01:18:53Freaking awesome.
01:18:54Oh, I have to go.
01:19:03Thank you,
01:19:04Lynn.
01:19:06You know,
01:19:06actually,
01:19:07why don't you just take
01:19:07the rest of the day off?
01:19:08Uh, sure,
01:19:10but why would I?
01:19:15I heard you were also
01:19:16having the day off.
01:19:17This woman,
01:19:18I swear.
01:19:18I swear.
01:19:18Okay,
01:19:38you can laugh all you want,
01:19:39but I am not getting
01:19:40pesto in this suit.
01:19:42It costs $5,000.
01:19:44Well,
01:19:44I bought it for you.
01:19:46So it's your month-aversary
01:19:48as CEO.
01:19:50How are you feeling,
01:19:51Miss Monroe?
01:19:52Mm,
01:19:52I am feeling
01:19:53excited,
01:19:55powerful,
01:19:58exhausted,
01:19:59and so,
01:20:01so, so hungry.
01:20:02Well,
01:20:02we can take care of that.
01:20:04Okay.
01:20:06Do you know that
01:20:06I am so happy for you
01:20:07that you got your company back?
01:20:09And I am very proud of you,
01:20:11sweetheart.
01:20:11Am I still being too much,
01:20:14or?
01:20:15No,
01:20:15I think it's perfect.
01:20:21What are you thinking?
01:20:25I don't know.
01:20:26It's just,
01:20:28feels like home.
01:20:29Mother,
01:20:43you have to do something
01:20:46about that bitch.
01:20:47She kicked me
01:20:49and Daddy
01:20:49out of the company.
01:20:51This is all because
01:20:52she married
01:20:53that Jessie Ross.
01:20:55We almost had her
01:20:57and her company.
01:20:59The worst part is
01:21:00Ken hasn't been
01:21:01picking up any of my calls
01:21:02or responding
01:21:03to any of my text messages,
01:21:04so he's probably
01:21:05with some new bitch.
01:21:08Help me,
01:21:08what do we do?
01:21:09Stop crying
01:21:10and bitching.
01:21:12Turn on the TV.
01:21:14Last month,
01:21:15Ken Snyder accused
01:21:16his ex-fiancé,
01:21:17Serena Monroe,
01:21:18of cheating.
01:21:19Turns out,
01:21:20he was the one
01:21:20who cheated first,
01:21:22and we have photos
01:21:23to prove it.
01:21:24No!
