00:00:013 years. 3 years I've loved him.
00:00:05Everyone tells me Ethan will never change.
00:00:08That a man like him only loves himself.
00:00:12But they don't see the real Ethan.
00:00:15I know he loves me.
00:00:17Thank you so much. I really, really appreciate it.
00:00:22Tonight, it will be our big night.
00:00:24And I'll give him all of me.
00:00:26We'll make a beautiful baby together.
00:00:30A family of our own.
00:00:44I'm so sorry.
00:00:56Hmm.
00:00:59Hmm?
00:01:09Oh, my God.
00:01:36Oh, my God.
00:02:00Oh, my God.
00:02:02Voila, you're early.
00:02:06Why so shocked, babe?
00:02:08You're always talking about wanting to try new things.
00:02:13Come and join us.
00:02:19Three years.
00:02:21Three years.
00:02:22I wasted on you.
00:02:24God, I'm such an idiot.
00:02:27I was thinking I was going to have a baby with you.
00:02:32Baby?
00:02:34Sweetheart, you wouldn't even put out after three years and now you're thinking about playing mommy.
00:02:41Though, if you're finally ready to spread those legs,
00:02:45these lovely ladies can show you how it's done.
00:02:51Screw you.
00:03:02I'm not going to let you take this from me, too.
00:03:09You know what?
00:03:10I don't need a man to make my dreams come true.
00:03:13One appointment, one sperm donor, I can have a baby of my own.
00:03:25Six months to produce an heir or I lose control of Crawford Industries to my nephew.
00:03:31Everything I've built over the last decade, gone.
00:03:35The surrogate candidates are all followers, so I believe you're educated, impeccable health histories.
00:03:42I don't need their resumes, Thompson.
00:03:44I need someone who won't turn this into a media circus.
00:03:47Find me someone who knows your place and will disappear after delivery.
00:04:32Miss,
00:04:34Miss, are you here for the interview?
00:04:37The interview?
00:04:39Yes, of course.
00:04:50Please sit.
00:04:56Right, let's get started.
00:04:59Hey, I'm going to need a full medical history, specifically genetic disorders.
00:05:12Do you work out?
00:05:14I mean, you look acceptable.
00:05:24Do you have any idea who I am?
00:05:28I'm just trying to be thorough.
00:05:30It's about creating a healthy baby, after all.
00:05:34I are attractive men, so full of themselves.
00:05:39I don't care if you're Brad Pitt.
00:05:42I need to know your reproductive history.
00:05:44So, sexual partners in the last six months?
00:05:48Mr. Craftsman, I can show you how it.
00:05:52Thompson, leave us.
00:05:57What are you doing?
00:05:59Making sure this interview is more thorough.
00:06:10Harvard Business School, MBA, top of class.
00:06:14No family history of genetic disorders.
00:06:16I work you out five times a week.
00:06:18As for intimate matters, I can assure you, performance has never been an issue.
00:06:29Now Thompson is gone, are you comfortable to share yours?
00:06:33Yes.
00:06:35Of course.
00:06:38I'm perfectly healthy too, no genetic disorders, and I get regular checkups.
00:06:45I've even been taking prenatal vitamins.
00:06:50You really do seem like the perfect match.
00:06:54Good.
00:06:55Now, regarding compensation, what figure did you have in mind?
00:07:01Well, I was thinking around $800.
00:07:06$800.
00:07:08I expected the fee to be significantly higher.
00:07:13I know, I know it's not a lot of money, but considering the quality, I could help, I can do
00:07:21paperwork, whatever.
00:07:22Top Tim, bring in the contracts.
00:07:31Oh, all of this?
00:07:33Seriously?
00:07:35Take your time to review, but the key point is after birth, the child stays with me.
00:07:42No contact.
00:07:44You want to keep my baby?
00:07:47Are you insane?
00:07:53That's standard procedure for surrogacy arrangements.
00:07:56Surrogacy?
00:07:57Surrogacy.
00:07:58The position you're interviewing for.
00:08:01Interview?
00:08:02I'm hated by sperm.
00:08:04You came to what?
00:08:06I thought you were a donor.
00:08:08That's why I was asking you all the questions about the history and stuff.
00:08:12I thought you were here to be my surrogate.
00:08:15Right.
00:08:16Well, I guess I've made a mistake, so I'm just going to go.
00:08:21Wait.
00:08:25A million dollars for carrying my child.
00:08:30I want my own baby, Mr. Crawford, not somebody else's.
00:08:38You might need that.
00:08:46Clean this up.
00:08:48Bring in the next.
00:08:56Hello?
00:08:57Mr. Reed, your father.
00:08:59You need to come now.
00:09:01Okay.
00:09:02I'm coming here.
00:09:23Doctor, how is he?
00:09:24How is my father?
00:09:26The cancer is spreading aggressively without immediate treatment.
00:09:29Then do something.
00:09:31Save him.
00:09:33Is there a treatment you can do?
00:09:35There is a new treatment.
00:09:37Okay.
00:09:38Then let's do it.
00:09:39But maybe it's quite expensive.
00:09:41How much?
00:09:42Around one million dollars.
00:09:45A million dollars?
00:09:46Yes.
00:09:48Can I get a loan or something?
00:09:51Actually, this is a new technology.
00:09:53And there is no loan policy.
00:09:55Sorry.
00:10:00Sorry.
00:10:30I don't want to get a loan.
00:10:30I don't want to get them.

00:18:42Control.
00:18:43This is the next game.
00:18:45Control.
00:19:01Sorry.
00:19:02Didn't see you there.
00:19:07You're always in the way.
00:19:12Ah, my brother's mysterious fiancé.
00:19:16Mrs. Crawford.
00:19:17Catherine, please. We're family now. Supposedly.
00:19:22Helen, tea, please.
00:19:24Yes, Mrs. Crawford.
00:19:25Sorry.
00:19:29So tell me, dear, how did you and Adrian meet exactly?
00:19:33Through mutual friends.
00:19:37Oh, really? Mutual friends?
00:19:43Dear, what friend of Adrian's would possibly move in your social circles?
00:19:48Unless this is more of a business arrangement?
00:19:52I'm sorry?
00:19:53Well, a girl of your position, surely some negotiation was involved.
00:20:00The only negotiation was whether I would take his last name or keep my own.
00:20:12Next weekend is our family dinner, and as Adrian's fiancé, your presence is required.
00:20:20I'll be honored.
00:20:22Hmm. Perfect.
00:20:24I'm sure you can find something more appropriate to wear.
00:20:30You can go now.
00:20:43Excuse me, Miss Ri.
00:20:44I need to clean.
00:20:46Of course. Let me just...
00:20:47I need to clean this.
00:20:52Is this what you're wearing to the family dinner?
00:20:56How creative.
00:20:58Must be hiding your family.
00:21:00Watching you chase after rich men.
00:21:03Let me help you with this.
00:21:05My friends!
00:21:07How clumsy of me.
00:21:09You did that on purpose.
00:21:11Do you think you can really marry Mr. Crawford?
00:21:14You're just trash trying to climb the social ladder.
00:21:21Mr. Crawford!
00:21:22She just attacked me!
00:21:26I was trying to help with the...
00:21:28Get out!
00:21:28But... I was just...
00:21:30One more word, and you're fired.
00:21:33You get out.
00:21:41What happened?
00:21:42Nothing.
00:21:44I need some space.
00:21:45I want to stay in the guest room tonight.
00:21:46Lila, you don't have to do that.
00:21:48I need some space.
00:21:52You take the bed.
00:21:53I'll take the sofa.
00:21:56I miss you so much, Daddy.
00:21:58Don't worry about me, okay?
00:22:00As long as we can get you better,
00:22:02I won't let their words get to me.
00:22:04I promise.
00:22:06Lila, what happened?
00:22:08What should I do?
00:22:22How's the happy couple?
00:22:32Oh, that's awkward.
00:22:37Just a small thing.
00:22:38Um, that is not a small pinch.
00:22:41It's okay.
00:22:42I'm here.
00:22:44You're safe.
00:22:47Perfect timing for the injection.
00:23:32Focus.
00:23:34This is just a simple medical procedure.
00:23:38Focus.
00:23:38Just pretending she's not.
00:23:40Just pretending she's not.
00:23:40Right outside.
00:23:45Mr. Crawford, is everything okay in there?
00:23:48Um, yeah, I'm fine.
00:23:50I just need some assistance.
00:23:53Oh, do you need my help?
00:23:55No, uh, I didn't mean...
00:23:57Are you sure?
00:23:57Honestly, it's fine.
00:23:58I can come in if you need me to.
00:24:02Come in.
00:24:11What's up?
00:24:13You want to help?
00:24:14Of course.
00:24:15What, what do you need me to?
00:24:21Oh, you're...
00:24:22Oh, you're...
00:24:23I'm...
00:24:24I'm so sorry.
00:24:25I didn't...
00:24:25I didn't realize.
00:24:27I'm just...
00:24:27I'm just gonna...
00:24:28Just go...
00:24:30Somewhere.
00:24:30I just need you.
00:24:31Somewhere very far.
00:24:33I'm sorry.
00:24:36I'm sorry.
00:24:37Well, that was helpful.
00:24:43Are you okay?
00:24:45Yeah.
00:24:46Dr. Anderson said that the hormone shots would hurt, but it's...
00:24:49It's causing you pain.
00:24:50Yeah, it's a little uncomfortable.
00:24:53But I mean, it will...
00:24:54It will pass.
00:24:56Here.
00:25:00Okay.
00:25:07Dr. Anderson said that the hormone shots were a part of the agreement, and any resulting pain is technically a
00:25:22work-related issue.
00:25:23And as your employer, I have a duty of care.
00:25:28Okay.
00:25:34Oh.
00:25:54Purely professional care.
00:26:05Hmm.
00:26:06Purely professional, huh?
00:26:16Adrian.
00:26:19Um, about this weekend...
00:26:21I'm sorry.
00:26:22There's an emergency in Atlanta.
00:26:23The merge is falling apart.
00:26:25Thompson, get the jet ready in 20.
00:26:29Your family invited me to dinner.
00:26:31Guess I'll handle it on my own.
00:26:37Well, I don't suppose we should expect punctuality from a person who's probably never had a proper watch in her
00:26:43life.
00:26:44I introduce him to the Lawson heiress, the senator's daughter.
00:26:49I don't understand why he picked this gold digger from God knows where.
00:26:54What did you say she did, Ethan?
00:26:56Retail?
00:26:57Worse.
00:26:58Worse.
00:26:59A wannabe writer.
00:27:00She probably thought that landing a Crawford would be her best-selling story.
00:27:04Hm.
00:27:07Well, I have tried to be welcoming.
00:27:10I had the chef prepare her place setting and everything.
00:27:13She probably couldn't figure out which work she did at all.
00:27:28I apologize for the slight delay.
00:27:33My, my.
00:27:34Trying so hard to look the part.
00:27:38James, do make sure none of the silver goes missing after dinner.
00:27:42I suppose Adrian's credit card is getting some good use.
00:27:46And although money can buy designer clothes, it can't buy breeding.
00:27:50Actually, I made this dress myself.
00:27:57Oh, darling.
00:27:59A seamstress for a daughter-in-law?
00:28:03How...quaint.
00:28:05At least we know who's going to be mending Adrian's socks.
00:28:09I may not have been born into privilege, but I was raised with something much more valuable.
00:28:16Integrity.
00:28:17Integrity.
00:28:18Is that what you call seducing your way into our family?
00:28:24How much...
00:28:25How much will it take you to disappear?
00:28:29Paying your price.
00:28:32The difference between you and I, Mr. Crawford,
00:28:36is that I don't think that everything comes with a price tag.
00:28:40Excuse me.
00:28:49Stay calm.
00:28:53You can do this.
00:28:59Getting all dressed up for me, baby.
00:29:06What's the rush?
00:29:08We're all family here.
00:29:10Well...
00:29:11Almost family.
00:29:12Don't touch me.
00:29:14You used to like it when I touched you.
00:29:16Remember how shy you were?
00:29:19Always saying no.
00:29:21Land off me, bastard!
00:29:24Careful, Mel.
00:29:25One scream from you, and everyone at dinner is going to know what kind of girl you really are.
00:29:31Now...
00:29:32Where were we?
00:29:35Ow!
00:29:41Everything alright, dear?
00:29:43You look...
00:29:44Fleshed.
00:29:45So...
00:29:46As I was saying about the muscles...
00:29:51Stop it!
00:29:53Something wrong, Miss Reed?
00:29:54Oh, Christ.
00:29:56Stop it!
00:29:59Enough!
00:30:00No class?
00:30:02No manners?
00:30:03I don't know how you seduced my son,
00:30:06but someone like you could never deserve a place in this family!
00:30:11I...
00:30:12I'm the one who sued her.
00:30:19Who convinced her to give me a chance.
00:30:25Adrian...
00:30:25If anyone's unworthy in this relationship, it's me.
00:30:28You wanna know how we met?
00:30:30She crashed into my life, quite literally.
00:30:32Papers flying, coffee spilled.
00:30:34Unlike some people, she didn't care about my name or my money.
00:30:40She, uh...
00:30:41Refused me several times.
00:30:43Called me too arrogant, too controlling.
00:30:46The first woman who dared to stand out to me.
00:30:48And that's when I knew I had to have her.
00:30:55Sir, two things.
00:30:56Your sister has invited Miss Reed to tonight's family dinner,
00:30:59and your jet is ready.
00:31:00We can go now.
00:31:06Cancel it, Lance?
00:31:07What's the merger?
00:31:10Yes, sir.
00:31:12It's funny that last week's family's dinners were the most pointless waste of time in existence.
00:31:21Something is more important than business.
00:31:27Oh, what a touching story, Uncle.
00:31:30Too bad it's either a complete lie, or she's been playing us both.
00:31:37What are you talking about?
00:31:39We've been dating for three years.
00:31:42I have pictures of us together.
00:31:48What?
00:31:50She probably planned this from the start.
00:31:52Dating me to get close to the family, then setting her sights higher.
00:31:56You manipulative little troll.
00:31:59Face it, Uncle.
00:32:00You're just another rung on her ladder to the top.
00:32:05Face it, Uncle.
00:32:07You're just another rung on her ladder to the top.
00:32:14That's for every lie you just told.
00:32:20Adrian! How dare you hit my son!
00:32:22Where do you think you're going? We are not the finish here yet!
00:32:25Yes, we are.
00:32:31I'm sorry, I shouldn't have left you alone with that.
00:32:34Thank you for coming back.
00:32:36And for making up such a beautiful story about us.
00:32:44Your hands, what happened?
00:33:00As my fiancee, you have access to the family accounts.
00:33:03I expect you to use them.
00:33:06I didn't want to presume.
00:33:08You're a Crawford now.
00:33:20Dr. Anderson.
00:33:21Mr. Crawford.
00:33:23The embryos are ready, so we can proceed with the implantation tomorrow morning.
00:33:27I see.
00:33:31What is it?
00:33:32Is something wrong with the embryos?
00:33:34I've been thinking.
00:33:36Perhaps we should approach this matter in a more natural manner.
00:33:43Between a husband and wife.
00:33:47What are your thoughts?
00:33:51I think that we should go to bed.
00:33:54We have a really big day tomorrow.
00:33:59So...
00:34:00I mean...
00:34:01Good night.
00:34:07You know, you look like a giant polar bear in that outfit.
00:34:12Focus on the procedure.
00:34:16Try to relax, Mrs. Crawford.
00:34:24There.
00:34:25See that white spot?
00:34:29That's our baby.
00:34:36You know, I can walk.
00:34:38Doctor's orders?
00:34:39You seem more nervous than I do.
00:34:46Merely following medical pursuit.
00:34:57Look at her.
00:34:59She's acting like a princess.
00:35:02She was probably a waitress last week.
00:35:07Now she's got Mr. Crawford wrapped around her finger.
00:35:14She's trying to get aاؤle.
00:35:18She's going to get a touch.
00:35:20She's going to take a look at her.
00:35:20And...
00:35:20She's going to take a look at her.
00:35:20What if she's getting her?
00:35:24It's pretty..
00:35:35No one's going to take a look at her.
00:35:36I'd like to take a look at her.
00:35:37This is real.
00:35:40My face is a beautiful man.
00:35:45Adrian!
00:35:46Hmm, not quite. Looking a bit unstable there, baby.
00:35:49Let go of me!
00:35:51Come on, you used to love being in my arms.
00:35:55Remember how we would spend hours at the cafe?
00:35:58You would lean in to me while reading your favorite book?
00:36:01Did she?
00:36:04Adrian! I was just getting food, I swear.
00:36:11Get out!
00:36:17Stomach.
00:36:17Lila, what's wrong?
00:36:19My stomach, I think that there's something wrong.
00:36:21If anything, anything happens to my fiancée or child, I can't guarantee what I'll do.
00:36:28And you, what you want, you'll never have.
00:36:34Never.
00:36:40Child.
00:36:41Three years, she wouldn't let me touch her.
00:36:44And a few weeks, with my uncle, and she's carrying his child.
00:36:49You want the perfect family?
00:36:52Well...
00:36:54It's not gonna happen.
00:37:06Thompson, clear my schedule.
00:37:08Everything over the next month goes to Jack.
00:37:10Sir, what happened?
00:37:11Do you need my help?
00:37:12You can't help on this one.
00:37:14Let's do what I say.
00:37:17You and Ethan, you've never really gotten along, have you?
00:37:24Why is that?
00:37:32You seem very concerned about him.
00:37:34I... I just...
00:37:35Just get some rest.
00:37:36It's been a rough day for you.
00:37:38Adrian, why did you choose to believe me just now?
00:37:42No reason.
00:37:44I just know you're not like that.
00:37:46Thanks.
00:37:48Get some rest.
00:37:49Do whatever makes you comfortable.
00:37:51Anything at all, I'll be around.
00:37:53Anything I want?
00:37:55Are you sure about that?
00:38:09What the...
00:38:23What are you doing?
00:38:25This isn't nutritious.
00:38:27The baby wants chocolate.
00:38:30The baby wants chocolate.
00:38:32Yeah.
00:38:33And chips and ice cream.
00:38:36You wouldn't want to deny your child, would you?
00:38:40I've been researching optimal pregnancy nutrition.
00:38:43See, week by week guidelines.
00:38:45Okay, okay, okay.
00:38:47How about a compromise?
00:38:48One treat per day.
00:38:51Half a treat.
00:38:53Three quarters.
00:38:54Are you sure you're still alive?
00:38:55No.
00:39:12Huh!
00:39:16Congratulations.
00:39:18The fetus is developing perfectly.
00:39:21Really?
00:39:23Everything looks wonderful.
00:39:25Now that we're in the stable period,
00:39:27I would recommend you starting some prenatal exercise.
00:39:31What kind of exercise?
00:39:35Now, hold her from behind in a maternal pose.
00:39:45Maybe we should skip this part.
00:39:48I'm here to drink. Let's do it properly.
00:39:50Guide her arms up.
00:40:01This is a little intimate.
00:40:03And now, the supporting stretch.
00:40:17Beautiful form, Mr. Crawford and Mrs. Crawford.
00:40:22Maybe we should continue so.
00:40:23Yeah, please.
00:40:43The charity gala isn't a test.
00:40:46Your father specifically invited me to attend.
00:41:07You look perfect.
00:41:12Just be yourself.
00:41:18Then...
00:41:20This...
00:41:22This is not me.
00:41:41You look...
00:41:43It's been too long.
00:41:50You look exactly the same.
00:42:02And you must be the fiancé.
00:42:05I'm so pleased Adrienne has found someone after all these years.
00:42:09That's really kind, but I'm sorry.
00:42:12Who are you?
00:42:15I'm just someone who cares about Adrienne's happiness, more than anyone else.
00:42:26Oh, my God!
00:42:28You two are finally back together.
00:42:31Everyone, look who's here, the golden couple.
00:42:36I heard Adrienne Colford was engaged.
00:42:39I knew it was you, Vivian.
00:42:40When is the wedding?
00:42:45Actually, I'd like to introduce you all to my fiancé, Lala Reid.
00:42:56We're expecting our first child, and of course you're all welcome to the wedding.
00:43:01She's pregnant?
00:43:03Oh, I'm so sorry.
00:43:05I just assumed congratulations for you both.
00:43:12Adrienne Crawford in a complete unknown?
00:43:15How did you manage that?
00:43:17Adrienne chose for over Vivian.
00:43:18Is he crazy?
00:43:20Oh, Benji, how have you been?
00:43:22Great.
00:43:24Let's go, pal.
00:43:31They can be so judgmental, can't they?
00:43:35Don't take it too personally, dear.
00:43:37Shh.
00:43:42Gentlemen!
00:43:43What are you all talking about?
00:43:50They do look like the perfect couple.
00:44:05Drinking?
00:44:06I thought you were pregnant.
00:44:08None of your business.
00:44:13You know how Adrienne is.
00:44:15Always has to win.
00:44:17Especially against me.
00:44:18He hates when I take things from him.
00:44:21What are you talking about?
00:44:30Perfect couple, right?
00:44:36Vivian fell madly in love with me, leaving dear Uncle heartbroken.
00:44:42Since then, whatever I want, he has to take.
00:44:48Whatever I have, he has to win.
00:44:51Like you.
00:44:54What you want, you never have.
00:44:58Never.
00:44:59You and Ethan, you've never really gone along, have you?
00:45:04You don't get it.
00:45:06Stop being naive.
00:45:08You're just his tool for revenge.
00:45:12Shh.
00:45:18I'm just his tool for revenge?
00:45:34What do you think you're doing?
00:45:36You are pregnant.
00:45:37Why are you drinking?
00:45:38Oh, now you care.
00:45:43It's soda.
00:45:44I know what I'm doing.
00:45:59What happened back there?
00:46:01Talk to me.
00:46:04Mila, I am worried.
00:46:06So you talked to Ethan, but not me.
00:46:10Oh, you do care so much about your nephew, don't you?
00:46:14What happened?
00:46:28Mila, open the door.
00:46:33Please.
00:46:35Please.
00:47:04The eggs are still warm.
00:47:07I apologize about last night, I was just worried about you.
00:47:13Worried about me, or worried about the baby?
00:47:19What do you mean?
00:47:21Is this why you're being so nice to me?
00:47:25Making me breakfast, being all protective, it's just for the baby?
00:47:32Leila, you've been so strange since yesterday, why?
00:47:36Was Vivian your girlfriend?
00:47:43Yes.
00:47:50And then she got with Ethan?
00:47:55Yes.
00:47:57Okay, so I'm just...
00:47:59But Vivian and I were...
00:48:06Sir, the Singapore version is falling apart.
00:48:08We need to immediately.
00:48:10I'm in the middle of summer.
00:48:11The board is threatening to pull out.
00:48:14I'll be there.
00:48:21We need to finish this conversation as soon as I get back.
00:48:24Of course.
00:48:25Business first.
00:48:31Lila.
00:48:32Just go.
00:48:44Sir, there have been complications.
00:48:47Explain.
00:48:48During her absence, Mr. Ethan has been meeting with board members.
00:48:52Suggesting her sudden marriage plans indicate obstacle decision-making.
00:48:58Several executors are questioning if someone so personally distracted should hurt the company.
00:49:23Mr. Crawford, we've been discussing my personal life.
00:49:26Your sudden access has let me be very clear.
00:49:35This company took a 40% profit loss before I took over.
00:49:40Within three years, I tripled our market share.
00:49:43Every major merger, every successful acquisition, every stock surge, my execution, my strategies.
00:49:51So yes, I am getting married.
00:49:54And yes, I took some time off.
00:49:56And no, not a single person in this room has the right to question my commitment or my capability.
00:50:05Because without me, there wouldn't be a company left to inherit.
00:50:13Now, shall we discuss the merger?
00:50:26Please use this for a good time.
00:50:27No.
00:50:33No.
00:50:34No.
00:50:34No.
00:50:34No.
00:50:35No.
00:50:36No.
00:50:38No.
00:50:41No.
00:50:57Adrian, what the hell were you thinking at the board meeting yesterday?
00:51:02I was doing my job.
00:51:04Your job is to follow the family strategy.
00:51:08Ever since she came into your life, you've been undermining everything we've built.
00:51:14You leave Lila out of this.
00:51:16You know, I don't have to stand here and listen to this.
00:51:20Yeah, run along.
00:51:22Adults are talking business now.
00:51:24We just need to bore him for a moment, dear.
00:51:27Business matters.
00:51:28You wouldn't understand.
00:51:35That girl is a poison to the Crawford name.
00:51:45She's nothing but a broodmare.
00:51:48After she delivers, pay her off and be done with it.
00:51:53Adrian needs someone who understands this world.
00:51:56Someone like me.
00:51:59Vivian is joining Crawford Industries tomorrow.
00:52:03Non-negotiable.
00:52:05She will follow you every day, just like before.
00:52:08And your little pet project can stay home and gestate.
00:52:12That's all she's good for.
00:52:16Get out!
00:52:17Both of you!
00:52:18How dare you!
00:52:20If you dare mention my wife's name again.
00:52:22I will burn Crawford Industries to the ground before either of you get to touch it.
00:52:26Adrian, be reasonable.
00:52:28She's worth a thousand to you.
00:52:31Tomorrow, 9am.
00:52:34Vivian starts.
00:52:35No discussion.
00:52:38Is that all?
00:52:40Yes, for now.
00:52:41But don't disappoint me again.
00:52:47That's all.
00:52:48God bless you.
00:53:18Stop it.
00:53:20Stop checking.
00:53:22This is ridiculous.
00:53:25I was independent before.
00:53:28I don't need a man to make me breakfast in bed and to hold me whilst I sleep.
00:53:35No!
00:53:36I'm not going to be that girl.
00:53:41I can make my own meals.
00:53:44I don't need his perfectly prepared little plates or his nutritional spreadsheets.
00:53:52A brood marrow.
00:53:56Way to get back at Ethan.
00:54:02Hello!
00:54:03I'm fine!
00:54:05You're not fine.
00:54:06Hospital, now!
00:54:07I'm fine!

00:58:50Still so cold.
00:58:52Don't you remember when you used to bring me soup when I was unwell?
00:58:56That was a long time ago.
00:58:59We were really great together, Adrian.
00:59:01We could be together again.
00:59:03I don't know what game you're playing at, but it won't work.
00:59:06What we had, I never took it as seriously as you pretended to.
00:59:12But Lila, she's different.
00:59:14She's real.
00:59:17Pregnant gold digger is real?
00:59:19Please.

00:59:45My little girl.
00:59:47Daddy.
00:59:48Hello.
00:59:50Your hand.
00:59:52It's nothing.
00:59:55I need to tell you something.
00:59:58I'm gonna be a mother.
01:00:00Is it that Ethan boys?
01:00:01No.
01:00:02No.
01:00:03Then who?
01:00:04It doesn't matter.
01:00:05But what does matter is that this is my baby.
01:00:09And I'm gonna love them so much.
01:00:12With all the love that you gave me.
01:00:16I'm gonna be a baby.
01:00:17Baby.
01:00:18I'm so sorry.
01:00:20I'm sorry I couldn't give you better.
01:00:24Daddy.
01:00:25If only I were healthy.
01:00:26If I could work.
01:00:27Daddy don't.
01:00:30The hospital bills.
01:00:32What are you getting money for?
01:00:35Don't tell me you sold yourself to some men.
01:00:37No, no, it's not like that.
01:00:39Did someone take advantage of you?
01:00:41My little girl, pregnant, all alone?
01:00:44She's not alone.
01:00:49Hi, Mr. Reid. I'm Adrian Crawford.
01:00:55I'm the father of her child.
01:00:58Jana.
01:00:59I'm not just the father.
01:01:00I'm the man who's gonna spend the rest of his life
01:01:03making sure your daughter and our child
01:01:05get everything they deserve.
01:01:06Pretty words from a rich man.
01:01:09Not words. Facts.
01:01:11I've already arranged a transfer to a private medical facility.
01:01:14Full treatment plan, best specialists.
01:01:17Adrian.
01:01:19And I promise you this.
01:01:21Every morning, she's gonna wake up
01:01:24knowing that she is cherished.
01:01:25Every decision I make, every step I take
01:01:28will be to ensure her happiness.
01:01:29You really mean that, don't you?
01:01:32Yes, sir, I do.
01:01:36Well...
01:01:38Maybe...
01:01:39I can stop worrying now.
01:01:49For what you said in there.
01:01:51I know you were just trying to make my father feel better.
01:01:54No, no, no, no.
01:01:55I wasn't just doing anything.
01:01:57Every word I said in there is true.
01:02:00Adrian.
01:02:06Laila, I need to tell you something.
01:02:09I've been falling for you ever since you crashed into my office
01:02:11with that ridiculous donor questionnaire.
01:02:14Yes, we had a contract, but...
01:02:18I realized...
01:02:20you've become everything to me.
01:02:21You're not my surrogate.
01:02:25You're not my convenient fiancee.
01:02:29You're my partner.
01:02:32If you have me.
01:02:36But what about Ethan and Vivian?
01:02:39What about them?
01:02:42Aren't you trying to just get revenge on Ethan?
01:02:45Revenge?
01:02:46I never loved Vivian.
01:02:48And Ethan, he's not worth his second thought.
01:02:51Really?
01:02:53Then who was the guy I saw competing with Ethan?
01:03:00That was...
01:03:03I was jealous, okay?
01:03:06I...
01:03:06I thought of you with him.
01:03:09Wow.
01:03:10The great Mr. Crawford.
01:03:12Jealous.
01:03:13Don't mention it.
01:03:14I have a reputation to maintain.
01:03:16Hmm.
01:03:29I'm not letting you go.
01:03:32Not ever.
01:03:41Surrogacy?
01:03:42Contract of marriage?
01:03:45Oh, this is too perfect.
01:04:21Whiskey.
01:04:22Neat.
01:04:25What's so urgent?
01:04:27I know something about your little ex-girlfriend that might interest you.
01:04:30Is this about her and my uncle?
01:04:32It's about how she really got pregnant.
01:04:36Your perfect uncle?
01:04:38He hired her.
01:04:39She's just a surrogate.
01:04:41Their whole engagement is alive.
01:04:45A contract?
01:04:49The board would love to hear about this.
01:04:52Next week's family meeting.
01:04:55He'll reveal everything.
01:04:57Until then, let's gather more evidence.
01:05:01And once he's ruined...
01:05:03I'll comfort him.
01:05:05Help him rebuild.
01:05:06He'll remember who he truly belongs with.
01:05:13And Lila?
01:05:15Well, once the truth's out, she'll be worthless to him.
01:05:18You can have your little toy back.
01:05:23Cheers.
01:05:39Um, Ethan's in meetings all afternoon.
01:05:42That's okay. I don't mind waiting.
01:05:45These documents require his immediate attention.
01:05:52Don't you mind getting me some tea, dear?
01:06:00I'm sorry to see agreements.
01:06:02I'm going to call contracts.
01:06:05Come on.
01:06:07The train's always so organized.
01:06:10Where is everything?
01:06:13I'm sorry to see agreements.
01:06:14I'm going to call contracts.
01:06:17Come on.
01:06:17The train's always so organized.
01:06:19It's just a stupid cat.
01:06:32Are you okay?
01:06:34You're a beast!
01:06:36Attack me!
01:06:38I need your bathroom.
01:06:40Now!
01:06:48Adrian!
01:06:50I've been waiting for you.
01:06:56You know...
01:06:57If you need an heir,
01:07:00we could make one.
01:07:02Right here.
01:07:03Right now.
01:07:06Lila doesn't have to know.
01:07:08She's already asleep.
01:07:11It could just be our...
01:07:13little secret.
01:07:16Here.
01:07:18In the living room?
01:07:21Wherever you want.
01:07:23Someone might see us.
01:07:25Are you scared?
01:07:30I know somewhere more...
01:07:33private.
01:07:41Where are we going?
01:07:42Can't risk being interrupted, can we?
01:07:46Ladies first?
01:07:51Enjoy the fresh air.
01:07:53Adrian!
01:07:55Adrian!
01:07:56You can't do this to me!
01:07:57I'm a Crawford executor!
01:08:13Adrian!
01:08:14Adrian!
01:08:15Adrian!
01:08:16Let me in!
01:08:23Everyone!
01:08:25This crisis could have destroyed us, but thanks to your tireless efforts, Crawford is stronger than ever!
01:08:33To the best team in the business!
01:08:34Yes!
01:08:39Though...
01:08:40Speaking of tonight's celebration...
01:08:43There's something you all should be prepared for.
01:08:46For what?
01:08:48My uncle is bringing his fiancee tonight.
01:08:51My uncle is bringing his fiancee tonight.
01:08:52The thing is, her and I were together until very recently.
01:08:59I know, I know, I know.
01:09:02But please, when they arrive, act normal.
01:09:05I couldn't bear any drama.
01:09:08She left you for your uncle!
01:09:11These things happen.
01:09:15Everyone!
01:09:16I'd like to introduce you to my fiancee, Lila Reed.
01:09:20Hello everybody, it's lovely to meet you all.
01:09:23I need to check some numbers.
01:09:27Did I do something wrong?
01:09:37How are you feeling?
01:09:39Is the morning sickness over yet?
01:09:41I'm fine.
01:09:43You know, I've been worried.
01:09:46All this stress can't be good for the baby.
01:09:50Which hospital are you using?
01:09:52I could drive you next time.
01:09:54That's not necessary.
01:09:57Come on.
01:09:58We used to tell each other everything.
01:10:01Just want to make sure you're getting the proper care.
01:10:03If I know her hospital, then I can get her surrogate history.
01:10:08How thoughtful.
01:10:10But Adrien handles all my appointments personally.
01:10:13The real hero of the hour!
01:10:20Beautiful, isn't she?
01:10:23The type of woman who belongs in Adrien's world.
01:10:27Excuse me.
01:10:29You know how my uncle thinks.
01:10:32Like a chess master.
01:10:34Every piece has its use.
01:10:37Some for business.
01:10:39Others for...
01:10:41You don't know him.
01:10:42Oh, but I do.
01:10:45Adrien Crawford cares exactly about one person.
01:10:48Adrien Crawford.
01:10:50He sees people as investments.
01:10:52Vivian?
01:10:53Perfect for managing the company.
01:10:56You?
01:10:58Well...

01:11:04He's wrong.
01:11:05He has to be wrong.
01:11:25Everyone in this world has their place.
01:11:27Their purpose.
