00:00:00You
00:00:04Did you get me an escort? Enjoy
00:00:08Two grand, she's enough, right? And um, keep the teacher. I know it's been five years, but does she really not remember me?
00:00:17She's not just a random girl. She's Serena Monroe, and she thinks that my family killed her mother.
00:00:23Before she sees me as the Jessie Ross, I need a chance to show her who I really am.
00:00:27It's Monroe. Why didn't you tell me that your husband was, um, so handsome?
00:00:36Where do you live? Fuck, I just pulled her over to some random neighborhood. I don't actually live here.
00:00:41What the fuck is going on? Jessie Ross.
00:00:44How do you always end up being at the right place at the right time?
00:00:48Because I only do it.
00:00:52Are there any other secrets you're hiding from me, Jessie Ross?
00:00:55I guess we'll find out.
00:00:57I don't know.
00:00:59I don't know.
00:01:00I don't know.
00:01:03I just don't know.
00:01:04Okay, bye bye.
00:01:07Hi, I'm looking for my fiance, his name's Ken Snyder, what room is he in?
00:01:29I'm sorry miss, I can't provide the information of our guests, even if he is your fiance.
00:01:35Listen, I know for a fact that he's upstairs screwing another woman, I'm gonna tell you
00:01:41something else.
00:01:42That woman is probably my half-sister.
00:01:44I'm supposed to get married to him next week and we haven't even had sex because he said
00:01:48that he's saving himself for marriage.
00:01:50Now I need concrete evidence that this asshole is cheating on me, so what do you say?
00:01:55Can you help a sister out?
00:01:58You need this for me.
00:02:00Of course not.
00:02:02Oh man, I wish I could go with her.
00:02:09Oh baby, I'm coming, okay?
00:02:13Oh my god baby, that was so good.
00:02:25Gosh, but it just makes me even more pissed knowing that you're getting married to Serena
00:02:30next week.
00:02:31I really can't stand the thought of you having sex with her.
00:02:34How are you gonna get out of fucking her now?
00:02:36I know sweetheart, but I'm doing this for us.
00:02:39Serena's mother stated in her will that she has to be married by 28 to take over the company.
00:02:44She's turning 28 in a week.
00:02:46This is just temporary.
00:02:48Once I take her company, I'll divorce her.
00:02:51Then you and I can be together.
00:02:53You promise?
00:02:54I promise you.
00:02:56I won't touch her.
00:02:57I'll just tell her I can't get it up or something.
00:03:00I'll be grounded.
00:03:03You two are disgusting.
00:03:10Here, take a shower.
00:03:12What the fuck Serena?
00:03:13What the hell are you doing here?
00:03:15You're asking me that after I catch you in bed with my fiance?
00:03:18Really Carol?
00:03:19You're asking me that after I catch you in bed with my fiance?
00:03:22And Ken, my sister?
00:03:24Get off your high horse Serena.
00:03:26Your father arranging our engagement so you can keep your mother's company.
00:03:29It's not like we're in love.
00:03:30That may be true, but I did trust you.
00:03:32I'm not marrying a cheater.
00:03:34The engagement is off.
00:03:36Good luck finding a husband in less than a week.
00:03:39You can say goodbye to your company.
00:03:41What the fuck Serena?
00:03:43I'm never letting go of my mother's company.
00:03:46Ever.
00:03:47Test me again and you'll see what I'm capable of.
00:03:54That bitch.
00:04:01Lynn, could you meet me at the Ross Hotel bar?
00:04:04Now?
00:04:07And then he has the audacity to tell me I'm a boner kill.
00:04:11Okay Serena, I get it.
00:04:13You got cheated on.
00:04:14But honestly, drinking is not going to help.
00:04:17Something else will.
00:04:19What are you talking about, Lynn?
00:04:21I got you a surprise.
00:04:23It's waiting for you in room 10-11.
00:04:25Or should I say, he is.
00:04:30Did...
00:04:31Did you get me an escort?
00:04:38Did...
00:04:39Did you get me an escort?
00:04:41Lynn, I don't need an escort.
00:04:44What I need right now is to find a way that I'm going to get married in a week so I can take over my mother's company.
00:04:49Come on Serena, you're too stressed.
00:04:51You need to let loose.
00:04:52Have some fun first.
00:04:53I think our ideas of fun don't align.
00:04:58Just go.
00:04:59Have some fun with him and relax.
00:05:01I'm 10-11.
00:05:02Trust me.
00:05:03Go.
00:05:04Go.
00:05:05Okay.
00:05:09This is crazy.
00:05:10Knock when you get there.
00:05:11He'll be waiting for you.
00:05:13Check out us at 11am.
00:05:15Enjoy.
00:05:16Bye.
00:05:17This is fucking crazy.
00:05:21Mmm.
00:05:22It's you.
00:05:23What's your name again?
00:05:30It's you.
00:05:31Whoa.
00:05:32Way to identify you.
00:05:33Hmm.
00:05:36It's you.
00:05:44What's your name again?
00:05:48It's you.
00:05:49Wow.
00:05:50Where did they find you?
00:05:59How did you find me?
00:06:01I didn't find you.
00:06:02Where did they find you?
00:06:03London.
00:06:04I'm going to go one second.
00:06:09Hello.
00:06:10You there yet?
00:06:11Yeah.
00:06:12And he is super hot.
00:06:15Thank you, Bessie.
00:06:16Have fun.
00:06:19How did you either?
00:06:20Shh.
00:06:21Just no talking.
00:06:24Let's just enjoy each other's company.
00:06:26Night.
00:06:32What do you mean, no show?
00:06:33She said she was there already.
00:06:34Well, I've been here for 30 minutes and no one is here.
00:06:37I'm leaving.
00:06:38Charging you with $500 cancellation fee.
00:06:39Goodbye.
00:06:40Hello?
00:06:41If she's not there, then where the hell is she?
00:06:44Okay, one second.
00:06:45Oh.
00:06:47Hey.
00:06:48Ow.
00:06:49Hello?
00:06:49If she's not there, then where the hell is she?
00:06:52And she got this.
00:06:54Um.
00:06:56Uh-oh.
00:07:00Uh-oh.
00:07:05Uh-huh.
00:07:06Oh, God, what happened last night?
00:07:36I have to get out of here.
00:07:57Leaving without telling me your name again?
00:08:01Again?
00:08:04Um, I've never actually done this before.
00:08:09I know it's been five years, but does she really not remember me?
00:08:14The deep pocket's pretty good.
00:08:15All right, easy, easy, easy, easy, easy.
00:08:20Your phone, too.
00:08:24Your jacket.
00:08:25That's real nice.
00:08:27I want that, too.
00:08:28Really?
00:08:34I'm sorry.
00:08:37Oh.
00:08:38Ouch.
00:08:39You got jumped, huh?
00:08:40Yeah.
00:08:41Was it because you were wearing expensive clothes?
00:08:43No, I can't.
00:08:44Just take it.
00:08:45My friend's around the corner.
00:08:47Oh, and next time you're in the neighborhood, don't wear nice stuff.
00:09:02You're going to get targeted.
00:09:04Hey, what's your name again?
00:09:08Thank you for a lovely night.
00:09:14And I should be going.
00:09:17Wow.
00:09:18It really is you.
00:09:19Smile for the camera, sis.
00:09:21Smile for the camera, sis.
00:09:25Smile for the camera, sis.
00:09:28I heard you were drinking yourself to death at the bar downstairs.
00:09:32Looks like you had some fun.
00:09:34I can already see the headlines now.
00:09:36Heiress of Monroe Construction cheats on her fiancé with a cowboy?
00:09:41Who are you to talk about cheating?
00:09:44I just caught you in bed with my fiancé.
00:09:46Yeah, well, nobody knows about that, do they?
00:09:48Just wait until I upload these photos.
00:09:50You will never be named CEO.
00:09:57What the fuck are you doing?
00:09:59Are you an idiot?
00:10:00I've already uploaded all these to iCloud.
00:10:02Hmm, what a coincidence.
00:10:05So have I.
00:10:09You sneaky bitch!
00:10:11Hmm, at least I have clothes on.
00:10:12What do you think is going to be worse?
00:10:14Your nudes with Ken?
00:10:15Or me just in a room with man?
00:10:17I'm telling father about this.
00:10:20This is not the last of me.
00:10:28I'm sorry you had to see that.
00:10:30But nice move, not gonna lie.
00:10:32You handled it well.
00:10:34Is it true you have a fiancé?
00:10:36Ex-fiancé, Ken Snyder.
00:10:39The heir of Snyder Electronics?
00:10:41That's the one.
00:10:43I'm taking over my mother's company in three days and that's all he really cares about.
00:10:47Well that Snyder guy would be a fool to care more about a company than you.
00:10:51Well anyway, thank you for helping me out.
00:10:55Thank you for helping me out.
00:10:57My name is Serena Monroe.
00:10:59What's yours?
00:11:00Jessie.
00:11:01Jessie Ross.
00:11:05As in CEO of Ross Architecture and Construction?
00:11:12Jessie Ross.
00:11:13As in CEO of Ross Architecture and Construction?
00:11:18Hey mom.
00:11:28How are you?
00:11:30Better now that you're here.
00:11:40The Rosses just won't give up, will they?
00:11:43I told them a million times to leave us alone.
00:11:45You're sick for God's sake.
00:11:47They don't care, sweetie.
00:11:49All the Rosses see is a great opportunity to acquire a blooming company from a dying woman.
00:11:57Don't say that, mom.
00:11:58Don't worry, Serena.
00:12:00I'm leaving the company to you.
00:12:02Even if it's the last thing that I do.
00:12:05It's too hard to do alone.
00:12:08Promise me that you'll find someone kind.
00:12:12Someone you trust.
00:12:13Just marry him and take over the company when you turn 28.
00:12:19And keep our legacy.
00:12:22No, just don't leave me alone.
00:12:24Promise me, Serena.
00:12:27I promise.
00:12:27Jessie Ross.
00:12:45Stay the fuck away from me.
00:12:47I'm sorry, did I say something?
00:12:49My mother was Pauline Monroe.
00:12:51Seven years ago, your family tried to get her to sell her company while she was dying from cancer.
00:12:56Okay, hold on a second.
00:12:58What are you talking about?
00:12:59My mother's company was her life's work.
00:13:01And you tried to steal it from her, and that killed her.
00:13:09Serena, wait.
00:13:11What?
00:13:12And don't say you're sorry.
00:13:13That's not going to bring her back.
00:13:14I'm not Jessie Ross.
00:13:22What do you mean you're not Jessie Ross?
00:13:24I mean, I'm not that Jessie Ross.
00:13:26I mean, it's a pretty common name, no?
00:13:29How can I forget?
00:13:30He's an escort.
00:13:31How could he be that Jessie Ross?
00:13:34Right.
00:13:35Totally.
00:13:36That name is just really triggering for me.
00:13:40Besides, this is the Ross Hotel.
00:13:42If you were the real Jessie Ross,
00:13:44somebody would have recognized you.
00:13:48Good morning, Mr. Ross.
00:13:55How did she know who you are?
00:13:59I work at this hotel quite often.
00:14:02I mean, I work at many different hotels.
00:14:04Of course, of course.
00:14:05Due to your profession, I'm sure you have to do this a lot.
00:14:09Anyway, um, speaking of that, did Lynn already pay?
00:14:13Excuse me?
00:14:14Oh, oh my god.
00:14:15I'm so sorry.
00:14:18Two grand should be here, right?
00:14:20And, uh, keep the cheese.
00:14:30Hold on.
00:14:31Does she think I'm an escort?
00:14:39Have a good rest of your day.
00:14:44Um, do you want me to call you an Uber or something?
00:14:48No, that's, that's all right.
00:14:49I'll, uh, I'll take the subway.
00:14:51Subway?
00:14:52Isn't he the owner of this hotel?
00:14:54Well, um, thanks for the great night.
00:14:58You're welcome.
00:14:59Bye.
00:15:00Bye.
00:15:09Good morning, boss.
00:15:20Got some news for you.
00:15:22The franchise mall is delayed in construction again.
00:15:26Same problem?
00:15:27The taco stand lady refuses to leave.
00:15:30We'll have to force her to remove her if we want to continue construction.
00:15:37All right, let's go.
00:15:39Hey, so I'm going to need this whole truck that moves.
00:15:50You listen to me, you copper asshole.
00:15:53I'm not going nowhere, okay?
00:15:54I've been here for over 10 years.
00:15:57And if you want me to go, it's going to be over my dead body, okay?
00:16:02How much would it cost to buy out the entire business?
00:16:05What?
00:16:05I mean, everybody has a price, right?
00:16:07You asshole!
00:16:08You think everything can be bought with money?
00:16:11Look at this stupid idiot!
00:16:13I don't think he wants me to come.
00:16:16I'm from you to be with somebody.
00:16:18All night, it's foul.
00:16:19It's absolutely foul.
00:16:20I don't know where she found this person.
00:16:22Shameless bitch.
00:16:24Carol told us that you were out the whole night at a hotel with another man?
00:16:28You have tarnished our family's name!
00:16:32Monroe is my family name.
00:16:36You're just a homewrecker turned stepmom living in the house that my mom bought with the money that my mom earned.
00:16:43So I suggest you shut your mouth, or I swear I'll do it for you.
00:16:49Look at your daughter.
00:16:54So I suggest you shut your mouth, or I swear I'll shut it for you.
00:16:58This is your daughter. Look at your daughter!
00:17:02How dare you talk to us like that?
00:17:05You're the one out there with every man you could scoop up on the street.
00:17:09Go back to Ken. Apologize and beg his forgiveness.
00:17:13Yeah. I'll do that, Dad. When pigs fly.
00:17:17Are you crazy, Serena? You cannot take over this company until you are married.
00:17:23How do you expect to find a husband in the next few days?
00:17:26Oh, don't you worry. I will.
00:17:28It just won't be the guy that cheated on me with my own sister.
00:17:34What?
00:17:38You're a homewrecker. Like mother, like daughter. Huh?
00:17:44You sneaky bitch. I was just keeping Ken company.
00:17:48You were the one who was out with a cowboy all night.
00:17:51At least he was nice and honest.
00:17:54You guys?
00:17:56You guys are just a bunch of money-hungry vultures feasting off of what my mom left behind.
00:18:01That's your daughter.
00:18:07She should be locked up.
00:18:08You're both right.
00:18:21I won't let them take your company, Mom.
00:18:23I promise.
00:18:25Okay.
00:18:26Where are you, Serena?
00:18:35I don't want to talk about last night.
00:18:36We will talk about it, Serena, but I'm actually calling as your assistant now.
00:18:40You should be meeting the chief designer of construction at Future Mall for the construction site right now.
00:18:45Oh, shit. I completely forgot. Okay. Um, I'm on my way.
00:18:51Nice.
00:18:55It's all yours, sir.
00:19:01God bless you.
00:19:02Hey, can you move this truck?
00:19:09Uh, I can use a drink.
00:19:16Hi, um, do you guys have water here?
00:19:20It's you.
00:19:21Oh, uh, I didn't take you as a taco stand kind of guy.
00:19:25You're gonna kill yourself doing all these jobs.
00:19:28Yeah, usually I can handle this type of stuff, but I'm especially tired after last night.
00:19:35No, not today.
00:19:36I'm not doing that.
00:19:38Anyways, what can I help you with, Miss Monroe?
00:19:42You can call me Serena.
00:19:43I was actually supposed to meet someone here, but it looks like I am late, so I think they already left.
00:19:50Somebody that keeps you waiting?
00:19:53I think you're worth the wait.
00:19:54Hold on a second. You might actually be the perfect.
00:19:57Hey, Jesse, are you married?
00:20:00No.
00:20:01Girlfriend?
00:20:02No.
00:20:03Situationship with different women?
00:20:05Of course not.
00:20:08Okay, perfect.
00:20:09Let's go.
00:20:12Where are we going?
00:20:14City Hall.
00:20:15We're gonna get married.
00:20:22Well, it's official.
00:20:24We're married.
00:20:26Kind of weird now that I said it out loud.
00:20:28I don't know.
00:20:29I think it sounds just right to me.
00:20:33Well, now the marriage part is over.
00:20:35Let's talk business.
00:20:37I'm gonna deposit 10K on this card every month, and that is your salary for playing my husband.
00:20:44You know I'll marry you for free?
00:20:46Come on, Jesse.
00:20:47You rarely know me.
00:20:49I know you well enough to know that I like you.
00:20:51Just take it, Jesse.
00:20:58I can't have you working in the hotels.
00:21:02Do you know what I mean?
00:21:03Listen, I...
00:21:08All right.
00:21:09You're right.
00:21:11The gentleman never argues with the lady.
00:21:13Great.
00:21:16Oh, I have to go, but keep your phone on you, and I look forward to working with you, Jesse Ross.
00:21:23You as well, Serena Monroe.
00:21:25We need to stop talking about her for once.
00:21:31I'm just a little bit over it.
00:21:32I'm here.
00:21:33Oh, my.
00:21:37What are you doing here?
00:21:39You should be on your knees at Ken's house begging him to take you back.
00:21:44Ken probably kicked her out.
00:21:45That's why she's groveling back to us.
00:21:47Funny coming from the woman who had her hands down his pants this morning.
00:21:50How dare you insult my baby girl, you wretched child.
00:21:55Well, I wouldn't have to if your baby girl wasn't such a liar and a man-stealer.
00:22:01You're just jealous that Ken chose me.
00:22:03And now without a husband, you're freaking out about the CEO title.
00:22:07I'm glad you mentioned it, because I have something to show you guys.
00:22:15Is... is that marriage certificate?
00:22:20You're married?
00:22:24You're married?
00:22:26Who the hell is this guy?
00:22:28That is none of your business.
00:22:33Wait a minute.
00:22:33Jesse Ross?
00:22:35Is it...
00:22:36Wait, isn't he the billionaire?
00:22:37The son of...
00:22:38Oh, snap out of your daydream.
00:22:39It's not that, Jesse Ross.
00:22:41As if a billionaire CEO would be interested in you.
00:22:46Let me guess.
00:22:47Is it the call boy from the hotel the other night?
00:22:52Homeless.
00:22:54So what, as it is.
00:22:58It's my marriage.
00:22:59Why do you care?
00:23:00Are you insane?
00:23:02You are the CEO-to-be of Monroe Construction.
00:23:05What can this loser do for our company, huh?
00:23:08He's got no connections.
00:23:09He's got no money.
00:23:10He's got nothing.
00:23:11Work is work.
00:23:13Marriage is marriage.
00:23:14If all you're concerned about is money, I'll get you the money.
00:23:17Listen to yourself.
00:23:18What do you think?
00:23:19Money grows on trees?
00:23:21Hey, you file for divorce right now, or you never set foot in this house again.
00:23:27Works for me.
00:23:29I don't want to see your faces anyway.
00:23:30I was just here to show you the certificate.
00:23:34Serena!
00:23:38Everything just went so unexpected, Serena.
00:23:41You've been sitting like this all morning, boss.
00:23:43Has something happened?
00:23:45Yeah.
00:23:47This happened.
00:23:47I got married last night to that girl.
00:23:52Wait, the girl that got you the wool coat?
00:23:54That's amazing, boss.
00:23:57Well, what did you say whenever you told her you've been looking for her for the last five years?
00:24:01I didn't tell her.
00:24:03What?
00:24:04Why?
00:24:05She's not just a random girl.
00:24:07She's Serena Monroe.
00:24:09The heiress of Monroe Construction and daughter of Pauline Monroe.
00:24:14And she thinks that my family killed her mother.
00:24:16And to be honest with you, I don't blame her.
00:24:19But it was your uncle who insisted on going after her mother.
00:24:22You were only 23.
00:24:23You weren't even CEO yet.
00:24:24I know, Cooper, but I'm still a Ross.
00:24:26It doesn't change anything.
00:24:27That's why I don't want her to know who I am.
00:24:29She's not right now.
00:24:30Okay, well, I have to say, boss, I don't think this is a very good idea.
00:24:33Okay, well, I have to say, boss, I don't think this is a very good idea.
00:24:40She's been on my mind all these years.
00:24:43I like her.
00:24:45I want to have a chance to get to know her better and to be around her, but I can't do that if she knows who I am.
00:24:51Before she sees me as the Jessie Ross, I need a chance to show her who I really am.
00:25:03Morning, Serena.
00:25:04Hey, where are you?
00:25:05Uh, I am at the construction site selling tacos.
00:25:11Again?
00:25:11Yeah, I need to pay the rent.
00:25:13Well, I'm your new boss now.
00:25:16I sent you an address.
00:25:17Can you come now?
00:25:18Yes, of course.
00:25:19I will be there soon, boss.
00:25:24I gotta get going.
00:25:25And what about you meeting in 30 minutes?
00:25:28Push it back.
00:25:29My only priority right now is Serena.
00:25:35This is not gonna end well.
00:25:42Tom?
00:25:43Looking amazing as ever.
00:25:45Thank you, Ms. Monroe.
00:25:47So nice to see you.
00:25:51Your dress is ready.
00:25:52I'll be right back.
00:25:52Oh, actually, it's my husband who is coming in today.
00:25:57He needs some decent clothes, some shoes, and definitely a new watch.
00:26:01That's great, although I'm not sure I can handle all of that today.
00:26:05Um, but, oh, oh, sorry.
00:26:08I'm late.
00:26:09It's Monroe.
00:26:10Why didn't you tell me that your husband was, um, uh, so handsome?
00:26:19Very nice to meet you, Jesse Ross.
00:26:21Wow, I have never been to a store like this.
00:26:24I mean, it must be so expensive.
00:26:27Baby, we don't have to do this if you don't want to.
00:26:30Oh, don't worry about it.
00:26:31I want to.
00:26:35So, can you get his measurements?
00:26:37There's no need.
00:26:42I'm sorry.
00:26:43What I mean is that, uh, you know, I've been doing this for so many years.
00:26:48I can just take one look at him and know exactly what he needs.
00:26:51See, this is why we come here, because Tom is the expert of all experts.
00:26:56All right, okay, so, well then, uh, Mr. Ross, why don't you, uh, come in the back and I will show you some suits.
00:27:05Great.
00:27:07I will be waiting outside the fitting room.
00:27:08What is going on?
00:27:14Thank you for covering for me.
00:27:16Look, you have an entire rack of suits here that have been custom tailored for you.
00:27:21Pick three and we'll try them on.
00:27:23Oh, oh, okay.
00:27:26What did we say?
00:27:30Okay.
00:27:31Hmm, actually not bad.
00:27:47Hmm.
00:27:48I like this one, too.
00:27:56What is this magic?
00:28:04Everything fits you like a glove.
00:28:05Betrayed secret.
00:28:16Oh, I'm so sorry.
00:28:18Excuse me.
00:28:19Sorry.
00:28:19Oh, it's okay.
00:28:20I think that we will take all three of them.
00:28:26Oh, yes, um, uh, actually, today is our annual sale.
00:28:3350% off everything that you've purchased today.
00:28:35Half off?
00:28:36Tell me you never have sales.
00:28:40Why don't I just go wrap this up for you?
00:28:44Okay.
00:28:44I promise that when I make enough money, I will pay you back.
00:28:51You don't have to pay me back.
00:28:53You're my husband.
00:28:55At least not with money.
00:29:11You know, no one's ever given me that nice of gifts before.
00:29:15Thank you, Serena.
00:29:16Of course.
00:29:17You're my husband now.
00:29:18I want to take care of you.
00:29:19Plus, it's not every day that you see a guy look this good in a suit.
00:29:26Actually, I got you something.
00:29:29Oh, wait.
00:29:29Hold on.
00:29:30Hold on.
00:29:30You first.
00:29:33I know I rushed you into this whole marriage thing,
00:29:36so I thought the least I could do is get you a ring.
00:29:44You know, you didn't rush me into anything.
00:29:55I actually, I need to tell you.
00:29:57If it isn't, Serena Monroe.
00:30:03So, you must be the new husband Serena bought.
00:30:06I mean, chose.
00:30:08You must be the new husband Serena bought.
00:30:13Oh, you must be Ken Snyder, the cheating ex-fiance she dumped.
00:30:18Anything, I dumped her first.
00:30:20Well, then I have a big thank you to tell you, because she's mine now.
00:30:23You must be paying him a lot, Serena.
00:30:28He's extremely committed to the character.
00:30:31Yeah, I'm really committed.
00:30:32And if you'll excuse us, I'm going to take my wife home.
00:30:43You don't even have your own car?
00:30:46You have to drive Serena's.
00:30:48What kind of loser are you?
00:30:51Loser?
00:30:53I've been called worse by better people.
00:31:08Fucking prick.
00:31:23You're welcome.
00:31:24Wow, I can't wait to see what this place looks like.
00:31:27Wait.
00:31:32Something feels odd.
00:31:37Well, this is me.
00:31:39Drive home safe.
00:31:40Where do you live?
00:31:42Aren't you going to invite me in for some coffee or something?
00:31:46Fuck.
00:31:46I just pulled it over to some random neighborhood.
00:31:48I don't actually live here.
00:31:51Where do you live?
00:31:53Which house is yours?
00:31:54Can I have a tour?
00:31:55Yeah.
00:31:56I'm going to go to the park.
00:31:57Yeah.
00:31:58This one.
00:31:59Yeah.
00:31:59I live here.
00:32:01But maybe next time.
00:32:03See the thing is that I'm renting.
00:32:05I got a lot of roommates.
00:32:06Six guys and me get messy and dirty.
00:32:08And...
00:32:09Wait, you're telling me seven people live in this house?
00:32:11Cramped up?
00:32:13Is that even legal?
00:32:14You know, on the housing market, it's like so expensive nowadays, so...
00:32:19Anyways, drive home safe.
00:32:23Okay.
00:32:24Is he hiding another woman in that house?
00:32:30No, really.
00:32:30You can go.
00:32:32I will.
00:32:33As soon as you get inside.
00:32:36Okay.
00:32:41I forgot my keys.
00:32:55What?
00:32:56Six other people live there.
00:32:58Just knock.
00:32:58I'm sure someone's home.
00:33:05Fuck it.
00:33:11Please don't let me help.
00:33:12Please don't let me help.
00:33:22Who are you?
00:33:23I'm not buying anything.
00:33:24Go away.
00:33:25Hey, friends.
00:33:27I forgot my keys.
00:33:29If you could just let me inside so we can...
00:33:33Can you just let me inside?
00:33:34I'll pay you whatever you want.
00:33:36Hey, what's wrong with you?
00:33:38What?
00:33:39What?
00:33:39What?
00:33:39What are you doing?
00:33:40What?
00:33:40What are you doing?
00:33:41What are you doing?
00:33:42I don't know.
00:33:42I don't know.
00:33:43I don't know.
00:33:43You have a disease?
00:33:44Go to the house.
00:33:45Go to the house.
00:33:46Go to the house.
00:33:51Excuse me.
00:33:53What?
00:33:54What the fuck is going on?
00:34:06What was that for?
00:34:08Do I need a reason to kiss my wife?
00:34:12What's wrong with your roommate?
00:34:14He said that he is very busy with a girl right now, if you know what I mean.
00:34:19And he asked me to come back later.
00:34:21Wait.
00:34:22You know Chinese?
00:34:23A little.
00:34:24Yeah.
00:34:24I'm not fluent, though.
00:34:25That's kind of cool.
00:34:27But you live here.
00:34:28He can't just treat you like that.
00:34:30Oh, no, no, no.
00:34:32I'm actually going to go to a friend's house, hang out for a little bit, and I'll come back
00:34:35later.
00:34:35There's no worries at all.
00:34:36No.
00:34:38Let's go.
00:34:39To where?
00:34:40You're my husband.
00:34:41I can't let you just live like this.
00:34:43I'm going to buy you a house.
00:34:46Are you serious?
00:34:47Of course.
00:34:49Let's go.
00:34:49I do not like the Rosses, but I do have to admit they have some of the best real estate
00:34:59in the city.
00:35:00This is their new developmental project.
00:35:03I am.
00:35:05I love it.
00:35:06But $2 million is a big purchase.
00:35:10Purchase?
00:35:11I'll give you this whole neighborhood if you want it.
00:35:13All right, Miss Monroe.
00:35:15Welcome to the one and only Lawrence Station Home.
00:35:18I heard you're interested in purchasing property?
00:35:22Boss?
00:35:22Even this young man thinks you're the boss of the relationship.
00:35:29My wife would like to have a tour of your model home.
00:35:34Certainly.
00:35:35If you'd kindly step into the living room.
00:35:38Ladies first.
00:35:44You don't remember, boss?
00:35:45You told me to come to the new model home and make sure everything was running smoothly.
00:35:51I can't believe it.
00:35:52I'm sorry.
00:35:52I'm sorry.
00:35:53Just don't blow my cover.
00:35:56Your secret is safe with me, boss.
00:35:58Always.
00:36:00But you know, funny thing, though.
00:36:01I have another Miss Monroe on my schedule.
00:36:12Ugh, Serena?
00:36:14There are 8.5 million people in LA.
00:36:17How come I keep running into you two cheaters?
00:36:19I'll go wherever I want.
00:36:20What do you think?
00:36:21You own the city?
00:36:22Oh, my God.
00:36:24Did you pay for your own wedding ring yourself?
00:36:27That's the saddest thing I've ever seen, sis.
00:36:29Oh, really?
00:36:30Because I think I'm looking at the saddest thing I've ever seen.
00:36:33Take that back, you bitch.
00:36:36Hey, watch it.
00:36:38You lay one hand on her, you'll regret it for the rest of your life.
00:36:41Take it easy.
00:36:42Take your claws off me, call boy.
00:36:45What?
00:36:46You think you're all high and mighty?
00:36:48Why don't you scram and go back to where you came from?
00:36:51Call boy.
00:36:52Anyway, if you two are interested in this unit, you could forget it.
00:36:57Because we're getting it, right, Ken?
00:36:58Anything my baby wants.
00:37:03If you two are interested in this unit, you could forget it.
00:37:06Because we're getting it, right, Ken?
00:37:08Anything my baby wants.
00:37:10Cash, down payment.
00:37:12Now go get us that contract.
00:37:14Mr. Schneider, I know that there's nothing you can do about your face.
00:37:18What did you just say?
00:37:19But have your parents ever taught you to get in line and wait your turn on the playground?
00:37:22Those rules might apply to your peasant world, picking up hot dogs.
00:37:28But in this world, my friend, money is the only express pass.
00:37:33Now what are you waiting for?
00:37:35Go fetch my contract.
00:37:37Actually, Mrs. Monroe has already reserved the unit.
00:37:41What?
00:37:41When?
00:37:48Mrs. Monroe has already reserved the unit.
00:37:51What? When?
00:37:52That's impossible.
00:37:54I made that down payment first.
00:37:55Yeah, well, Mrs. Monroe is the CEO of Monroe Construction.
00:37:59And as one of our VIP clients, she can reserve any unit at any time without a down payment.
00:38:06But I wouldn't expect you to know that.
00:38:09Are you insane?
00:38:11Do you know who you're talking to?
00:38:13This is Ken Snyder.
00:38:15Snyder?
00:38:16Oh, I'm afraid I've never heard that name before.
00:38:19Well, if you guys will excuse us, me and Serena have some paperwork we should be signing.
00:38:27Fine.
00:38:27We don't want your fucking model home anyway.
00:38:30Oh, hey, Ken.
00:38:32No cussing.
00:38:33My house, my rules.
00:38:34Let's go, Ken.
00:38:37Looks like the express pass didn't work this time.
00:38:44What?
00:38:49Did I say something wrong?
00:38:53Did I say something wrong?
00:38:54That was fucking amazing.
00:38:57Hey, watch your language.
00:39:00I'm too excited.
00:39:02Thank you, but since when did I become a VIP?
00:39:06Don't the moment you walked in.
00:39:08Well, if you put it that way, I think I need to buy it.
00:39:13Ah, and we're having a half-off sale because it's a model home.
00:39:17You get to keep the furniture too.
00:39:20Am I dreaming?
00:39:21I have to be dreaming Jesse pinch me.
00:39:24I think this is real, Serena.
00:39:27I'll go fetch the papers.
00:39:30This is amazing.
00:39:31Welcome to your new home, Jesse.
00:39:39How about we call it...
00:39:43Our home.
00:39:47How about we call it...
00:39:51Our home.
00:39:53What?
00:39:55What do you mean?
00:39:56I just got this model home for you because I need you to move in ASAP.
00:40:00Look, it's already furnished and everything.
00:40:02I know, it's so spacious, but I want to live here with you.
00:40:08Build a home.
00:40:09Just us.
00:40:11You really want to do that with me?
00:40:14Why do you keep doubting that I want to be with you?
00:40:18I guess I just haven't felt wanted lately.
00:40:22Well, Serena Monroe, I want you more than anything.
00:40:30Hmm.
00:40:31This is a pretty big house.
00:40:33Lots of empty rooms.
00:40:36All right.
00:40:37Just so we're clear, I get the master bedroom.
00:40:41Anything you want, sweetheart.
00:40:43Yes, don't touch it.
00:40:44Okay.
00:40:46All right.
00:40:50It's been such a long day.
00:40:52Are you hungry?
00:40:53I'm starving.
00:40:55I think they know just the ways to go.
00:40:59This is my favorite restaurant.
00:41:01They have the best steak in the city.
00:41:03Wow.
00:41:04I cannot imagine what a dish must cost around here.
00:41:07Oh, don't worry about it.
00:41:08Get whatever you want.
00:41:10It's on me anyway.
00:41:11Because I saved about a million dollars tonight.
00:41:15Welcome to LaBelle.
00:41:19Good to see you.
00:41:20Pleasure to meet you.
00:41:21Sir, my name is Jesse Ross.
00:41:23I'm very excited to be at your establishment for the very first time.
00:41:27Great to have you here, Mr. Ross.
00:41:29I am Leonard, the manager.
00:41:31The lady must be your date for the night.
00:41:33My wife, Miss Serena Monroe.
00:41:36Congratulations on the new marriage.
00:41:39Please, follow me.
00:41:40Wait, how did you know that we recently got married?
00:41:47Wait, how did you know that we recently got married?
00:41:51You know, I've seen so many newlywitted couples come to this place to celebrate.
00:41:55They all have this, uh, special glow.
00:41:58Wow.
00:41:58That's very romantic.
00:42:02I guess we do have a lot to celebrate.
00:42:05Perfect.
00:42:05Let me lead you to your table.
00:42:10We have this table for the two of you.
00:42:12Miss Monroe.
00:42:14Perfect.
00:42:26Thank you, sir.
00:42:26You're welcome, sir.
00:42:33Something wrong?
00:42:35No, nothing.
00:42:36Actually, this day has gone by so perfectly, it actually feels unreal.
00:42:43Well, it must be luck.
00:42:46No, it's you.
00:42:51It's you.
00:42:53Ever since I met you, everything just keeps falling into place.
00:42:57Bring so much fortune into my life.
00:43:01I think you're my lucky star, Jesse.
00:43:06Do you want a glow?
00:43:22For some reason, you really like having him around.
00:43:27Should I hire him?
00:43:29Do I have something in my face?
00:43:31Um, no.
00:43:33It's not that.
00:43:35I was actually thinking, since you are my lucky star,
00:43:39why don't you come look with me at my company?
00:43:43I could use the luck, and I like having you around.
00:43:50Well, if you say it like that, where do I have fun?
00:43:54Oh, there you are.
00:43:59And you're the secret husband she's been hiding from me.
00:44:03He's not just okay, he's hot.
00:44:05Way to go, girl.
00:44:06Lynn.
00:44:06Stop.
00:44:08I'm Lynn.
00:44:09Serena's best friend, assistant, therapist.
00:44:13Well, I'm hoping to take some of that responsibility off you from now on.
00:44:16I like him.
00:44:17Great.
00:44:18Because I brought him here to do an interview with you.
00:44:21An interview for what?
00:44:22Anything.
00:44:24Just find him something to do.
00:44:26No pressure.
00:44:27Just try your best.
00:44:29Wait, Serena.
00:44:31This woman, I swear.
00:44:32I know, right?
00:44:33Well, let's get to it.
00:44:45What are you doing in my office?
00:44:52What are you doing in my office?
00:44:54And get out of my chair.
00:44:55You're getting your stench all over it.
00:44:57Always so high and mighty, aren't we, Serena?
00:45:01I guess you haven't heard the news.
00:45:03The Johnsons decided to pull out of your biggest project in Williamsburg.
00:45:07I guess they don't trust you with their money.
00:45:09No need to be nervous, okay?
00:45:10We'll just chat a bit.
00:45:12Sounds good to me, yeah.
00:45:14So you have your resume on you?
00:45:15Yeah, I do, yeah.
00:45:17I've done a little bit of this, a little bit of that, but nothing too serious.
00:45:22So we're going to chose you as for Prince Charming.
00:45:24I'm sure you've done something incredible.
00:45:29You went to Harvard?
00:45:30Yes, yeah.
00:45:31You were the chief designer of reconstruction of Shangri-La Shanghai.
00:45:36That is correct, yeah.
00:45:37And you designed Crazy Maple Plaza in Silicon Valley.
00:45:42You know, with your resume, you could have a job in the industry anywhere in the world.
00:45:47I know.
00:45:49But there's only one Serena Moreau.
00:45:53She's the most important thing to me.
00:45:54That's impossible.
00:46:00I just met with the COO last week.
00:46:02Wait, Ken went to college with him.
00:46:07You two did this.
00:46:09Don't point fingers when you can't even manage your own company.
00:46:13You start as CEO next week.
00:46:16What are you going to do?
00:46:18Well, as her assistant, I should be critical and grill you with more questions.
00:46:24But as her best friend, I feel like she is so lucky to have you.
00:46:32Face it, Serena.
00:46:36Serena's office.
00:46:37Shit.
00:46:38I think I recognize that voice.
00:46:40Carol Monroe.
00:46:42Not you again.
00:46:49Oh, you start as CEO next week.
00:46:52What are you going to do?
00:46:53I'll find a solution.
00:46:55I'm not losing the Johnson case.
00:46:58There's a fine line between confidence and stupidity, Serena.
00:47:01You want a piece of free advice?
00:47:03Quit right now.
00:47:05I'll die before I let go of this company.
00:47:09Face it, Serena.
00:47:10Without the Johnson's money, you're going to lose the biggest case of your life.
00:47:13And I don't really think the board is going to be too happy about that.
00:47:18But I'll see if I can have Ken call them to change their minds.
00:47:22And all you'll have to do is get down on your hands and knees and beg me.
00:47:32What's more important to you, your ego or your dead mother's company?
00:47:36Keep dreaming, Carol.
00:47:40Great.
00:47:41Looking forward to seeing you get fired.
00:47:48Wait.
00:47:48Don't do it.
00:48:04Don't do it.
00:48:18You again?
00:48:20You know what?
00:48:20Don't steal my line.
00:48:21How dare you bully my wife like that?
00:48:23I didn't do anything.
00:48:25It's the Johnson's that pulled out of her project.
00:48:29Not anymore.
00:48:34Vincent, it's Jesse.
00:48:36Hello.
00:48:37I'm good, bro, yeah.
00:48:38Hey, I have a question for you.
00:48:40I heard you're pulling out of the Monroe project, yeah?
00:48:43Oh, that would be amazing.
00:48:45Hey, I really appreciate it.
00:48:47Thank you so much, all right?
00:48:49All right, we'll talk soon.
00:48:50Be safe.
00:48:51Bye.
00:48:52All taken care of.
00:48:53Serena, you can queue the project.
00:48:55But the Johnsons...
00:48:56The Johnsons just agreed to sell the project for 20 million to Ross the Instruction,
00:49:00and they're going to continue to fund the Serene's project.
00:49:02You're lying.
00:49:06Okay, you're lying.
00:49:07The Rosses wouldn't just donate 20 million dollars to some project.
00:49:11You're more than welcome to call Vincent if you'd like yourself,
00:49:14but I doubt you have his phone number.
00:49:16Serena, it's all taken care of.
00:49:18Mark my words, Serena, your luck will run out soon.
00:49:22And when it does, I'll be in the front row waiting for that day.
00:49:25Does she always say on the door like that?
00:49:38What's wrong?
00:49:39I thought you'd be happy about all this.
00:49:40I am happy that the project is being saved, but I don't know how I feel about it being with Rosses.
00:49:49Serena.
00:49:50Wait, how do you know Vincent Johnson?
00:49:53Oh, shit.
00:49:54What should I tell her?
00:49:55I, uh, I've helped him with some stuff, yeah.
00:50:03Aw, I knew I was afraid about you.
00:50:06Jesse Ross, how do you always end up being at the right place at the right time?
00:50:11Oh, that was close.
00:50:14Because I only do it for the right person.
00:50:18Stop, we're at the office.
00:50:23How was your interview, by the way?
00:50:25I don't know, you tell me.
00:50:26How was my performance back there, huh?
00:50:29You're hired as my personal assistant.
00:50:32Perfect, I've been dreaming of this day my whole life.
00:50:34Hey, see you at work.
00:50:41Bye.
00:50:44Cooper.
00:50:45Hey, uh, I wanted to let you know I am stepping away from the company for a little while.
00:50:49What?
00:50:49Why?
00:50:50I accepted a job offer for my wife as her assistant.
00:50:53Wait, boss, your company makes millions of dollars a month and you're tossing it aside for no good reason?
00:50:58Well, I'm doing it to be with Serena, that's the best reason.
00:51:01I'm not tossing it aside, I'm leaving it in your care while I'm gone.
00:51:05Oh, okay, yeah.
00:51:06Easy for you to say, boss.
00:51:08I trust you, Cooper, okay?
00:51:10You can do it.
00:51:12All right, bye.
00:51:13Wait, hold on a second, boss.
00:51:14Wait.
00:51:31Surprise.
00:51:35Surprise.
00:51:39Did you do all of this?
00:51:42Anything for my wife?
00:51:47Is that my apron?
00:51:51Okay, you can laugh all you want.
00:51:53I am not getting a stain on this shirt.
00:51:55Who says I'm laughing?
00:51:56Actually, I think it is quite sexy.
00:52:03You're the first man who's ever cooked for me.
00:52:05Really?
00:52:06No one's ever done this for you?
00:52:08Men in my world are not like you, Jesse.
00:52:10They wear $5,000 suits, play golf, and they only care about two things.
00:52:16Spending money and how to make more of it.
00:52:20You're full of surprises.
00:52:21You're pretty special.
00:52:28You say the word, and I will do this for you every single day.
00:52:33For the rest of your life.
00:52:38For the rest of your life.
00:52:40Or as long as you'll have me.
00:52:44Well, I have to taste test this first.
00:52:47All right.
00:52:49Ladies first.
00:52:49Fair morning.
00:52:50I'm pretty picky.
00:52:52I'll take my chances.
00:53:00This is amazing.
00:53:01Um, you have a little something.
00:53:08A little something.
00:53:10Oh.
00:53:20This is too good to be true.
00:53:25You're too good to be true.
00:53:28I don't want to keep doing this to you.
00:53:31What are you talking about, Serena?
00:53:32I think we should end this.
00:53:37Oh, no.
00:53:37Did you find out who I am?
00:53:41I think we should end this.
00:53:43I proposed to you only to become CEO, and you ended up being so special.
00:53:49Okay, I'm gonna stop you right there.
00:53:51Yes, you did ask me to marry you.
00:53:54But have you ever thought about why I said yes?
00:53:57Because I'm paying you?
00:53:58Ten thousand dollars a month is a lot.
00:54:01Yes.
00:54:02But it's not enough to make me stay.
00:54:04I stay because I like you.
00:54:07And I'm falling for you, Serena.
00:54:11Really?
00:54:13You're falling for me?
00:54:15Yes.
00:54:18Now.
00:54:21Shall we?
00:54:29So you can dance.
00:54:31Do you have any other secrets that you're hiding from me, Jesse Ross?
00:54:36I guess we'll find out.
00:54:41Actually, I think I have a secret to tell you.
00:54:48Actually, I have a secret to tell you.
00:54:51I think I'm falling for you, too.
00:55:02Well, then, I guess we'll just call it even.
00:55:17Do you know that when two people look at each other's eyes long enough,
00:55:47their heartbeats synchronize?
00:55:50No way.
00:55:50You just made that up.
00:55:52I'm serious.
00:55:54Feel it.
00:56:05Serena?
00:56:08Do you hate Jesse Ross?
00:56:13Do you hate Jesse Ross?
00:56:16I...
00:56:17I don't know.
00:56:19I know he just recently took over the company a year ago,
00:56:23and it was his Uncle Alfred who was going after my mom, not him.
00:56:29but he's still Ross.
00:56:30I don't know if I can look past that.
00:56:35I've never told anybody this, but even though my mom has been gone for five years,
00:56:42sometimes I pretend she's just traveling and she'll come back one day.
00:56:53She was the only one that ever truly loved me.
00:56:55That's why I can't let go of this company.
00:56:59If I lose this, then I lose everything of her.
00:57:06I'm sorry that you had to do it alone.
00:57:09It was hard.
00:57:10I'm not alone anymore.
00:57:13I have you.
00:57:14I haven't felt like this in a really, really long time.
00:57:22Like what?
00:57:23Like who?
00:57:37We're going to have to move.
00:57:46If this is what you want to do, you can do that.
00:57:49But you're going to have to move it all the way over.
00:57:50This is the CEO office.
00:57:52Dad, have you ever heard of knocking?
00:57:54You think you're such a hero for securing funds from Ross Construction, do you?
00:57:59Here, why don't you take a look at this?
00:58:02Serena Monroe broke our engagement and then married another man in less than 24 hours.
00:58:09She broke my heart.
00:58:10Worse than that, she broke my trust.
00:58:12And that is why I am hereby terminating all partnerships with Monroe Constructions.
00:58:20He cheats on me first and then he wants to go off about trust.
00:58:24That's funny.
00:58:24I don't care who cheated on whom.
00:58:27You ruined our relationship with Ken and now our business is sinking.
00:58:32Dad, you don't care about the company.
00:58:35You just want the bribe that Ken said he'd give you.
00:58:38How dare you accuse your father of this?
00:58:44How dare you accuse your father of this?
00:58:50Get your hands over me, you asshole.
00:58:52Anyone that hurts Serena, I'll hurt them first.
00:58:54Do you understand?
00:58:55You've got two options.
00:58:56You either walk out the door yourself or I'll throw you out, huh?
00:58:59What is it?
00:59:00What are you going to do?
00:59:05That's what I thought.
00:59:08Who the hell is this?
00:59:09Jesse Ross, Serena's husband and personal assistant.
00:59:13You hired him?
00:59:15What is this, a homeless shelter?
00:59:17His resume was approved by HR.
00:59:19He got here fair and square, unlike you, who took mom's seat on the board as soon as she passed.
00:59:25I swear, you mark my words, Serena.
00:59:27You're going to regret losing all the money that you had in projects with Ken.
00:59:32The big board meeting is tomorrow, and if you can't dig your way out of this,
00:59:35you can kiss this company goodbye.
00:59:47You're okay?
00:59:47Don't worry about it.
00:59:51No, Jesse, he's right.
00:59:53I'm going to lose the company.
00:59:56No, Jesse, he's right.
00:59:57I'm going to lose the company.
00:59:59What are you talking about?
01:00:01You're Serena Marrone.
01:00:02You'll figure it out.
01:00:03I know my wife.
01:00:04No, but the board doesn't, Jesse.
01:00:07And if I don't get enough business for the company, they're going to vote me out.
01:00:11I promised my mom, and I'm failing her.
01:00:13Look at me.
01:00:15It's going to be okay.
01:00:17I will help you figure this out.
01:00:18We'll figure it out together, all right?
01:00:20The board meeting is in 24 hours, Jesse.
01:00:22No one can fix this.
01:00:27I know one person.
01:00:31I have an idea, and you're not going to like it.
01:00:33You're going to say no, but you got to hear me out first.
01:00:36You need to call Jesse Ross and set up an in-person meeting with him.
01:00:46You need to call Jesse Ross and set up an in-person meeting with him.
01:00:50That is the only company in this industry that can handle all the properties of Kent's.
01:00:55This could be your only chance to actually save the company's rent.
01:00:58Do you understand?
01:00:59And this could be his shot to right the wrong that his family did to you.
01:01:03Even if I did call him up, everyone wants to work with him.
01:01:06Why would he choose me?
01:01:07He's chosen you before.
01:01:08I have a feeling that he could choose you again.
01:01:14I have to step out for a minute, but trust me, call him.
01:01:27What should I do, Mom?
01:01:29Promise me that you'll find someone kind.
01:01:32Someone you trust that take over the company when you turn 28.
01:01:37Keep our legacy.
01:01:48Hello?
01:01:48Boss, your wife.
01:01:50I mean, Miss Monroe is on the line.
01:01:53Put her on.
01:01:55Good morning, Mr. Ross.
01:02:00This is Serena Monroe from Monroe Construction.
01:02:02It's a pleasure to hear from you, Miss Monroe.
01:02:04Why does his voice sound so familiar?
01:02:06Is there anything that I can do for you?
01:02:09Yes, actually.
01:02:11Since we are officially doing business together, I think there are a few projects that would be perfect for your company.
01:02:16And I was wondering if you would be interested in meeting tonight in person to discuss our future together.
01:02:24That sounds wonderful.
01:02:26I would love to finally meet you in person, Miss Monroe.
01:02:29Oh, and may I just say, I really admire what you are doing over at that company.
01:02:34I think you're a very bright and strong woman.
01:02:38Thank you, Mr. Ross.
01:02:40Please call me Jessie.
01:02:43See you tonight then, Jessie.
01:02:47It's a lot nicer than I thought.
01:02:53Okay, this might be my last night with you, Serena, but I'm just going to tell you the truth and hope for the best.
01:03:04Jessie, I don't know if I can do this.
01:03:05I'm freaking out right now.
01:03:07Look at me.
01:03:08Everything is going to be okay tonight, all right?
01:03:10I promise.
01:03:12How can you be so sure?
01:03:13Because you're amazing, and he will see that.
01:03:16And we're also named Jessie Ross, so I basically know how his brain works.
01:03:21That wasn't scientific at all.
01:03:23But it worked, didn't it?
01:03:25Guess what?
01:03:26I have a surprise for you.
01:03:27Okay.
01:03:29Come with me.
01:03:29Where did you find such a place?
01:03:39Well, I know the owner, and he agreed to lend it to me.
01:03:43I mean, I figured we never had a first date, so, uh, why not?
01:03:47This is beautiful, Jessie.
01:03:53It really is.
01:03:55Wait, don't move.
01:03:59Why?
01:04:01I'm trying to see if our heartbeats synchronize.
01:04:03And what do you think?
01:04:07I can't tell.
01:04:09It seems like yours is getting faster and faster.
01:04:14And who's faulted?
01:04:15I don't know.
01:04:16I'm lucky to have found you, Serena.
01:04:26Me too, Jessie.
01:04:28You know, something weird happened earlier when I was on the phone with Jessie Ross?
01:04:31I saw your face.
01:04:40It was like you had some weird familiarity somehow.
01:04:47Must have been a deja vu moment.
01:04:51It must be.
01:04:56Oh my god.
01:04:58I'm an idiot.
01:04:59Is it finally time?
01:05:01You planned this whole date for us, and here I am talking about another man.
01:05:08So sorry, I...
01:05:10It's okay.
01:05:12I am just glad to be in this moment with you.
01:05:17Well, Jessie, I'm your wife.
01:05:21You have your whole life to spend with me.
01:05:23And mark my words, Jessie Ross, you're not gonna get rid of me that easy.
01:05:28That I am the luckiest man in the world.
01:05:31I love you.
01:05:35You have no idea how much I wish you'd never know who I really am.
01:05:38I love you too, Jessie.
01:05:43I love you too, Jessie.
01:05:47I love you too, Jessie.
01:05:48I love you too, Jessie.
01:05:48I love you too, Jessie.
01:06:03Well, I guess we're back where it all started.
01:06:06I love you too, Jessie.
01:06:07I guess we are.
01:06:08I love you too, Jessie.
01:06:19Hey...
01:06:25I'm sorry.
01:06:25I gotta take this.
01:06:26Okay, I'll just meet you out there.
01:06:32Serena?
01:06:37Nothing.
01:06:39Go ahead.
01:06:43Serena, I promise I will tell you everything when I'm done.
01:06:50Alfred?
01:06:51Jesse, did you really think you could keep Serena Monroe a secret from me?
01:06:56Stay out of it, okay? This is between me and her.
01:07:00Not anymore.
01:07:02Call up to my suite. We need to talk.
01:07:15Okay, five more minutes.
01:07:21I thought you were in Europe.
01:07:25You wouldn't return my calls, Jesse.
01:07:29So I thought either you're in trouble,
01:07:33or you're hiding something.
01:07:36I thought you were in Europe.
01:07:39You wouldn't return my calls, Jesse.
01:07:41You wouldn't return my calls, Jesse.
01:07:45So I thought, either you're in trouble, or you're hiding something from me.
01:07:52Turns out, both my guesses are correct.
01:07:56Me and Serena are married. I'm investing in her projects so she can keep her company.
01:08:00You can't do anything about it.
01:08:01You've always been a hopeless romantic, Jesse.
01:08:07And that's the worst quality a CEO can have.
01:08:10Now, don't get me wrong.
01:08:13I'm proud of you for gaining Serena Monroe's trust.
01:08:17She never would have agreed to sit down with me.
01:08:18And I do like her projects.
01:08:21But then I thought, why fund her when I can take over her entire company?
01:08:28Why fund her when I can take over her entire company?
01:08:31She's given everything for that company.
01:08:32You can't just take it from her.
01:08:34I'm not taking anything.
01:08:36I'm buying.
01:08:37I'm going to make her a decent offer.
01:08:40And if she's smart enough, she'll take it.
01:08:42I'm not going to let you do that.
01:08:44I know you won't.
01:08:47Which is why I have to do this.
01:08:51Alfred.
01:08:53Alfred!
01:08:55Hey!
01:08:57No, no, no!
01:08:59Alfred!
01:09:00Alfred!
01:09:08I see you've noticed the proposal I drafted for us, Ms. Monroe.
01:09:15Alfred Ross.
01:09:20Alfred Ross.
01:09:22I know you're expecting my nephew.
01:09:24However, I just had a chat with him.
01:09:27Unfortunately, we were unable to come to terms on our business strategy.
01:09:31Business strategy?
01:09:33Is that what you call trying to force a dying woman to sell her company?
01:09:36I understand your frustration, Ms. Monroe.
01:09:39But I'm a businessman.
01:09:41So is your mother.
01:09:42A successful one, I might add.
01:09:44She knew the rules of the game.
01:09:47And so do you.
01:09:49Fuck!
01:09:51Fuck!
01:09:55I don't mean to be rude, Mr. Ross.
01:09:58But it seems that we have too much history to continue this conversation.
01:10:03I'd like to speak with your nephew, if I may.
01:10:07Unfortunately, Jessie is currently occupied.
01:10:10But I assure you, Ms. Monroe, I speak for the both of us.
01:10:14After all...
01:10:17We are family.
01:10:18Jessie's phone.
01:10:20He's your nephew.
01:10:22He's the...
01:10:23Jessie Ross.
01:10:24Now, I know all about your situation, Ms. Monroe.
01:10:26And I assure you, I have your best solution right here.
01:10:27I'm never selling my company.
01:10:28Especially not to you.
01:10:30Well, I knew you'd say that.
01:10:32But to me, it's really all the same.
01:10:35You see, it's simple.
01:10:36Either you sign these papers now and sell to me, or you sign these papers now and sell to me, or you sign these papers now and sell to me.
01:10:40Or tomorrow, you get voted out by your board, your stocks crash and I buy it cheap.
01:10:41See, whatever you choose, Ms. Monroe, I'll get what I want.
01:10:56I'll get what I want.
01:10:58out by your board.
01:11:00Your stocks crash, and I buy it cheap.
01:11:03Whatever you choose, Miss Monroe, I'll get what I want.
01:11:14Shit!
01:11:15Hey, come and let me out!
01:11:20Cooper, how'd you find me?
01:11:21I couldn't reach you, boss.
01:11:22So I tracked your phone to this hotel.
01:11:26I saw your uncle down in the lobby with your phone,
01:11:27so I knew something was off.
01:11:29The front desk told me he checked into this room.
01:11:31Alfred is forcing Serena to sell the company.
01:11:33We need to get down there right now.
01:11:35OK.
01:11:40So everything he did was to get close to me,
01:11:46to get my company.
01:11:48Are there any other secrets you're
01:11:49hiding from me, Jesse Ross?
01:11:52I guess we'll find out.
01:11:54You know, something weird happened earlier
01:11:55when I was on the phone with Jesse Ross?
01:11:57I saw your face.
01:12:00Love clouds one's vision.
01:12:02And as you know, in this business, your vision must
01:12:05always be crystal clear.
01:12:09Sign this.
01:12:11You'll get a fair price, board seat, and your share of stocks.
01:12:16Or wait till tomorrow and let your board decide the fate
01:12:20fate of your company.
01:12:22Like I said, it's really all the same to me.
01:12:33Promise me, Serena.
01:12:34Take over the company when you turn 28.
01:12:37And keep our legacy.
01:12:40I'm sorry, Mom.
01:12:42I'm tired.
01:12:42Don't do it, Serena.
01:12:46Jesse, what the hell are you doing?
01:12:47You keep me in a hotel room so you can force Serena to sign
01:12:49an acquisition contract?
01:12:50You've got to stop this, Alfred.
01:12:52It's been five years since you tried to take Serena's mother
01:12:54and make her sign a contract when she was dying of cancer.
01:12:56What, are you going to do it again?
01:12:58I don't care who I have to lock up and who's dying.
01:13:00This is fucking business.
01:13:01And I do it all over again for my company.
01:13:04Cooper, you got it?
01:13:05I don't care who I have to lock up and who's dying.
01:13:07This is fucking business.
01:13:09And I do it all over again for my company.
01:13:11Cooper, you got it?
01:13:13Loud and clear.
01:13:14I don't care who I have to lock up and who's dying.
01:13:17This is fucking business.
01:13:18And I do it all over again for my company.
01:13:23Now I'm going to bring that recording to the board of my company.
01:13:26And we're going to see if your business strategies align with us.
01:13:29But if you want my advice, you better start packing.
01:13:33How dare you?
01:13:34I am your uncle.
01:13:35This is our family business.
01:13:37Not anymore.
01:13:38I'm CEO of Ross Construction.
01:13:40And we're going to do this my way.
01:13:42You know what?
01:13:43You better leave now before I make you.
01:13:48Hold on.
01:13:50You're forgetting something.
01:13:51Serena, Serena, I can explain.
01:14:01No, don't tell me that you can explain.
01:14:03Weren't you lucky that I happened to stumble into the wrong hotel room that one night?
01:14:20I poured my heart out to you and you've been lying to me this whole time.
01:14:24The marriage, the house, even this meeting, all for what?
01:14:29So you can earn my business, redeem your name, pretend that you're some good person?
01:14:35No, none of that at all, actually.
01:14:37Then why did you do this?
01:14:39Because I fell in love with you five years ago.
01:14:50I didn't know anything about you.
01:14:52But I thought about you every single day for five years.
01:14:57It was winter.
01:14:59You got robbed and I gave you my coat.
01:15:02I thought I would never see you again.
01:15:04And then you walk into my hotel room.
01:15:07I was shocked.
01:15:08I was shocked, but then I realized that my family hurt you and how much you hated me.
01:15:15So you pretend to be my escort?
01:15:18What, to get close to me, to become my best friend?
01:15:24You can't do this to me, Jesse.
01:15:26You lied to me.
01:15:27You manipulated me.
01:15:28You created this fairy tale of us.
01:15:32You made me fall in love with somebody who doesn't even exist.
01:15:34Serena, did you really?
01:15:42Did you fall in love with me?
01:15:52Did you really fall in love with me?
01:15:54I can't.
01:15:55I can't do this, Jesse.
01:15:58I am sorry that I lied to you.
01:16:02You have every right to be mad.
01:16:04But I don't want to lose you again.
01:16:08And you know that everything that we have here is real.
01:16:13You know that.
01:16:16It's so much easier to hate you than to love you.
01:16:19It's so much easier to hate you than to love you, Jesse.
01:16:37I don't want to lose you.
01:16:47Serena, wait.
01:16:48It's done.
01:16:49I'm losing the company tomorrow.
01:16:50I'm just going to leave LA, OK?
01:16:52No, it's not.
01:16:54Because you never said it was.
01:16:56What are you talking about?
01:16:58I told myself to let you hate me and to let you go.
01:17:01But you never said it.
01:17:07I've been waiting for the right time to give you this.
01:17:12I know that you lost your home and you lost your mother.
01:17:15And that it's very hard to believe in somebody you can.
01:17:17But if you can change your mind, I can be your home.
01:17:27I'm still the same person that you fell in love with.
01:17:30And I can keep waiting for you.
01:17:32I've done it for five years.
01:17:34I can do it again.
01:17:34I can't.
01:17:43Jesse, I can't.
01:17:50Because I already proposed to you once.
01:17:53Now it's your turn.
01:17:56And you have to do it right.
01:17:57All right.
01:18:08Serena Monroe.
01:18:12Will you marry me again?
01:18:18Yes.
01:18:27I love you, Serena and her girl.
01:18:29I love you too, Jesse Wicks.
01:18:31Are there any more secrets that you need to tell me?
01:18:35Not anymore.
01:18:37I promise.
01:18:57All right, it's official.
01:19:06Robert and Carol Monroe are officially off the board
01:19:09and are no longer entitled to your company.
01:19:13How does it feel, Madam CEO?
01:19:15Freaking awesome.
01:19:21Oh.
01:19:23I have to go.
01:19:25Thank you, Lynn.
01:19:27You know, actually, why don't you just take the rest of the day off?
01:19:31Uh, sure.
01:19:33But why would I...
01:19:37I heard you were also having the day off.
01:19:39This woman, I swear.
01:19:55Okay, you can laugh all you want, but I am not getting pesto in this suit.
01:20:03Cost $5,000.
01:20:05I know.
01:20:07I bought it for you.
01:20:09So it's your month-aversary as CEO.
01:20:11How are you feeling in this room?
01:20:13I am feeling excited, powerful, exhausted, and so, so, so hungry.
01:20:23Well, we can take care of that.
01:20:25Do you know that I am so happy for you?
01:20:29That you got your company back.
01:20:31And I am very proud of you, sweetheart.
01:20:33Am I still being too much, or...?
01:20:35No.
01:20:37I think it's perfect.
01:20:43What are you thinking?
01:20:45I don't know.
01:20:47This just...
01:20:49Feels like home.
01:21:05Mother!
01:21:07You have to do something about that bitch!
01:21:09She kicked me and Daddy out of the company!
01:21:13This is all because she married that Jessie Ross.
01:21:17We almost had her.
01:21:19And her company.
01:21:21The worst part is, Ken hasn't been picking up any of my calls or responding to any of my text messages.
01:21:27So he's probably with some new bitch!
01:21:29Help me, what do we do?
01:21:31Stop crying and bitching!
01:21:33Turn on the TV!
01:21:35Last month, Ken Snyder accused his ex-fiance, Serena Monroe, of cheating.
01:21:41Turns out he was the one who cheated first.
01:21:43And we have photos to prove it.
01:21:51No!
