Short filmTranscript
00:00:02Three years. Three years I've loved him. Everyone tells me Ethan will never change. That a man like him only
00:00:09loves himself.
00:00:12But they don't see the real Ethan. I know he loves me.
00:00:17Thank you so much. I really, really appreciate it. Thank you.
00:00:22Tonight it will be our big night and I'll give him all of me. We'll make a beautiful baby together.
00:00:30A family of our own.
00:00:44I'm so sorry.
00:00:55I'm so sorry.
00:00:57How do you know my memory?
00:00:59I'm so sorry.
00:01:02I'm so sorry.
00:01:05I'm so sorry.
00:01:09I'm sorry.
00:01:12I'm so sorry.
00:01:14I'm sorry.
00:01:14Oh, my God.
00:02:00Oh, my God.
00:02:04You're early.
00:02:06Why so shocked, babe?
00:02:08You're always talking about wanting to try new things.
00:02:14Come and join us.
00:02:20Three 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.
00:02:30Oh, baby.
00:02:34Sweetheart.
00:02:35You 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, these lovely ladies can show you how
00:02:48it's done.
00:02:50Screw 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.
00:03:15I can have a baby of my own.
00:03:26Six 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, for other words, Ivy League educated, impeccable health
00:03:41histories.
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.
00:04:11I need someone who knows your place, and will disappear after delivery.
00:04:33Miss, are you here for the interview?
00:04:37The interview?
00:04:39Yes, of course.
00:04:44Yes.
00:04:45Okay.
00:04:50See, sit.
00:04:56Right, um, let's get started.
00:05:01Hey, um, education background.
00:05:05Excuse me?
00:05:06And I'm going to need a full medical history, specifically genetic disorders, to 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.
00:05:34Why 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.
00:05:45So, sexual partners in the last six months?
00:05:49This is a cross-conference.
00:05:50I can't show her out.
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.
00:06:11MBA.
00:06:12Top of class.
00:06:14No family history of genetic disorders.
00:06:16I work you out five times a week.
00:06:19As 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?
00:06:33Um, yes.
00:06:35Of course.
00:06:36Um, you don't.
00:06:38I'm perfectly healthy too, no genetic disorders, and I get regular checkups.
00:06:45Um, I'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.
00:07:08I 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, I could help, I
00:07:21can do paperwork, whatever.
00:07:22Thompson, bring in the contracts.
00:07:32All of this?
00:07:34Seriously?
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.
00:08:27For carrying my child.
00:08:31I want my own baby, Mr. Crawford, not somebody else's.
00:08:36Ah.
00:08:38You might need that.
00:08:46Clean this up.
00:08:48Bring in the next.
00:08:56Hello?
00:08:57Miss Reed, your father, you need to come now.
00:09:02Okay, I'm coming.
00:09:23Doctor, how is he? How is my father?
00:09:26The cancer is spread aggressively without immediate treatment.
00:09:30Then do something. Save him.
00:09:33Is there a treatment you can do?
00:09:35There is a new treatment.
00:09:37Okay, then 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. Sorry.
00:09:55Here.
00:09:56Here.
00:10:07Here.
00:10:10Here.
00:10:13Here.
00:10:15Here.
00:10:17Here.
00:10:20Here.
00:10:23Here.
00:10:25to the credit for him.
00:10:35this is the last batch yes sir the blonde want to know about ring sizes and brunette
00:10:43asked about moving in and the redhead all of them want the crawford name
00:10:50and was qualified she was refreshing no pretence no schemes but she wasn't even here for surrogacy
00:11:02sometimes the best candidate isn't looking for the job
00:11:17hello
00:11:19I'm Adrian Crawford
00:11:31I've been thinking
00:11:36about yesterday I may have been a bit hasty you're reconsidering don't sound so smug about
00:11:42it I have my reasons as do I I'd like to propose a modification to the original terms what kind
00:11:54of modification joint custody you wouldn't be just carrying the child you'd be the baby's
00:11:59mother why would you agree to that you're honest direct no hidden agenda qualities I want in my
00:12:08child's mother so I'd really get to be a part of the baby's life yes but understand this clearly
00:12:14we'll be parents nothing more no romantic entanglements no emotional expectations
00:12:24don't flutter yourself god rich man and there he goes
00:12:32father the board is getting impatient have you considered the arrangements I suggested I've already
00:12:40made my own plans Adrian if you're thinking of using some random surrogate to produce an air
00:12:47forget it the Crawford name means something I won't let it be tainted by I've already chosen
00:12:54my fiance what we'll discuss this at dinner did I just get promoted from surrogate to fiance
00:13:08correct me if I'm wrong but didn't you just say just parents nothing more the situation requires
00:13:19adaptation mmm is that CEO talk for I change my mind if we need a convincing story you'll be staying
00:13:26at my house during the pregnancy and after the baby comes we'll arrange for an amicable separation
00:13:31continue parenting and I'll arrange for any additional compensation for the complexity

00:18:42Control.
00:18:44This is the need for control.
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 fiance.
00:19:16Mrs. Crawford.
00:19:17Catherine, please. We're family now. Supposedly.
00:19:22Helen, tea, please.
00:19:24Yes, Mrs. Crawford.
00:19:28So tell me, dear, how did you and Adrian meet exactly?
00:19:33Through mutual friends.
00:19:37Oh, really? Mutual friends.
00:19:42Dear, 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?
00:19:54Well, 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.
00:20:13Next weekend is our family dinner, and as Adrian's fiancee, your presence is required.
00:20:21I'll be honored.
00:20:22Hmm.
00:20:23Perfect.
00:20:24I'm sure you can find something more appropriate to wear.
00:20:30You can go now.
00:20:43Excuse me, Miss Rie.
00:20:44I need to clean.
00:20:46Of course.
00:20:46Let me just...
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.
00:21:04Let me help you with this.
00:21:06My 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, she just attacked me.
00:21:26I was trying to help with a...
00:21:28Get out!
00:21:29But 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?
00:22:36How's the happy couple?
00:22:39Um, 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.
00:22:49I'm here.
00:22:53I don't know.
00:22:54I don't know.
00:23:01Shit.
00:23:02Oh, shit.
00:23:06Oh, shit.
00:23:11Oh, shit.
00:23:15Oh, shit.
00:23:33Focus. This is just a simple amount of a procedure. Just pretend she's out. Right outside.
00:23:45Mr. Crawford, is everything okay in there? Yeah, I'm fine. I just need some assistance.
00:23:53Oh, do you need my help? No, I didn't mean...
00:23:57Are you sure? Honestly, it's fine. I can come in if you need me to.
00:24:02Come in.
00:24:13So, you want to help? Of course. What do you need me to...
00:24:21Oh, you're... Oh, you're... I'm so sorry. I didn't realize. I'm just gonna go somewhere. I just need you. Somewhere
00:24:32very far.
00:24:32Hey. Ah! Sorry. Okay.
00:24:36Well, that was helpful.
00:24:43Are you okay? Yeah. Dr. Anderson said that the hormone shots would hurt, but it's...
00:24:49It's causing you pain. Yeah, it's a little uncomfortable, but I mean, it will pass.
00:24:55Oh. Here.
00:24:59Oh, okay.
00:25:13Thanks.
00:25:18Well, the hormone shots were a part of the agreement, and any resulting pain is technically a work-related issue.
00:25:23And as your employer, I have a duty of care.
00:25:28Okay.
00:25:31Oh.
00:25:55Purely professional care.
00:26:06Purely professional, huh?
00:26:16Adrian.
00:26:20Um, about this weekend...
00:26:21I'm sorry, there'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.
00:26:53What did you say she did, Ethan? Retail?
00:26:57Worse. A wannabe writer.
00:27:00She probably thought that landing a Crawford would be her best-selling story.
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 to do, though.
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.
00:27:58Whew.
00:27:59A seamstress for a daughter-in-law?
00:28:01How quaint.
00:28:05At least we know who's going to be mending Adrian 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, how much will it take you to disappear in your price?
00:28:32The difference between you and I, Mr. Crawford, is 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, almost family.
00:29:13Don'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.
00:29:22Blank 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, where were we?
00:29:34Oh!
00:29:41Everything alright, dear?
00:29:43You look... flushed.
00:29:45So, as I was saying about...
00:29:51Stop it!
00:29:59Enough!
00:30:01No class?
00:30:02No manners?
00:30:03I don't know how you seduced my son, but someone like you could never deserve a place in this family!
00:30:11I...
00:30:12I'm the one who convinced her to give me a chance.
00:30:24I...
00:30:40I'm the one who sued her.
00:30:40Uh...
00:30:41Refused me several times.
00:30:43Called me too arrogant.
00:30:44Too controlling.
00:30:46First woman who dared to stand out to me.
00:30:48And that's when I knew I had to have her.
00:30:50I...
00:30:51I...
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 last.
00:31:07What's the merger?
00:31:10Yes, sir.
00:31:12It's funny that last week's family 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?
00:31:40We'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.
00:31:57You 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!
00:32:21How dare you hit my son!
00:32:22Where do you think you're going?
00:32:24We are not finished 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.
00:33:04I expect you to use them.
00:33:05I... I didn't want to presume.
00:33:08You're a Crawford now.
00:33:19You're a Crawford now.
00:33:20Dr. Anderson?
00:33:21Mr. Crawford, the 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 a 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.
00:34:26See 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 procedure.
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.
00:35:11She is so nervous.
00:35:24Soon, she doesn't.
00:35:35Maybe I can take care of the hammer.

00:50:45you can see
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.
00:51:15You leave Lila out of this.
00:51:17You 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.
00:51:36That 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't 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.
00:52:21I will burn Crawford Industries to the ground before either of you get to touch it.
00:52:27Adrian, be reasonable.
00:52:29She is worth a thousand to you.
00:52:31Tomorrow, 9 a.m.
00:52:34Vivian starts.
00:52:36No discussion.
00:52:38Is that all?
00:52:40Yes, for now.
00:52:42But don't disappoint me again.
00:53:18Stop it.
00:53:20Stop checking.
00:53:23This 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 broodmare.
00:53:56Way to get back at Ethan.
00:54:04I'm fine.
00:54:05I'm fine!
00:54:05I'm fine!
00:54:06You're not fine.
00:54:06Hospital.
00:54:07Now!
00:54:07I'm fine!
00:54:22Thanks. I know we've had our differences, but I really appreciated you today.
00:54:30You know, you used to look at me like that. All sweet, sincere.
00:54:36Don't.
00:54:38Why not? Is there really no chance for us?
00:54:42Ethan.
00:54:44Lila, he's just using you. You're his revenge against me. A tool. And you deserve better than that.
00:54:54Adrian, stop! What are you doing?
00:54:58I'm protecting you.
00:55:00From what? He's helping. He brought me here. My hand was bleeding.
00:55:03So now you're defending him?
00:55:04No, I'm defending the truth.
00:55:07Sometimes, I guess people surprise you.
00:55:11I see.
00:55:13Adrian.
00:55:15I'll call the doctor to come.
00:55:21I want a full blood panel, fetal monitoring, bring the OB-GYN down immediately.
00:55:25Sir, it's just a minor car.
00:55:27I want a full prenatal checkup.
00:55:29I've already spoken to Dr. Anderson. He's going to be down here in 10 minutes.
00:55:32It's always so controlled, aren't you, Uncle?
00:55:37Some of us actually know how to make Lila happy.
00:55:42Remember our beach dates?
00:55:46How you said I was the most fun you ever had?
00:55:53Thompson, bring in the catering. The Michelin star one. Lila says she's got a hankering for Australian wagyu beef.
00:55:59Oh, well done. No sauce.
00:56:03I don't think that I did say...
00:56:05How about when we watched your favorite movie?
00:56:08Pride and Prejudice. BBC adaptation, 1995.
00:56:12She likes to watch it when she's still stressed.
00:56:14Which is why I upgraded out-home theater system.
00:56:17To have all the original films from the BBC archive.
00:56:21You did what?
00:56:22Wow!
00:56:25Using money to get to her heart.
00:56:27Huh, Uncle?
00:56:31Well, see.
00:56:32Oh, the Alzheimer's ring is fully renovated.
00:56:35Named after Lila's grandmother.
00:56:37As she mentioned.
00:56:38Oh, it's a fully funded.
00:56:41Anonymous donor.
00:56:43Hmm.
00:56:47He may be able to offer you money,
00:56:49but you're gonna miss this.
00:57:04Is this normal, rich people behavior?
00:57:07Just a smile, no.
00:57:10I've already ordered the prenatal vitamins.
00:57:12They should arrive shortly.
00:57:14They're custom-formulated to her blood and genetic profile.
00:57:17Wow.
00:57:18He remembered all that about me.
00:57:20I remember everything about you.
00:57:26Maybe you should come back
00:57:27when there's less testosterone in the air.
00:57:31Guys, she's tired.
00:57:33We should leave.
00:57:33Let her rest.
00:57:43Is this just another competition, Ethan?
00:57:46Or does he actually care?
00:58:05Yes, Father?
00:58:06Vivian's being hospitalized.
00:58:09Overwork, they say,
00:58:10from cleaning up your company's mess.
00:58:13I have meetings.
00:58:14Cancel them!
00:58:15Go to visit her right now.
00:58:18Either you show proper respect
00:58:20the woman I chose for you,
00:58:22or else I will have to call
00:58:24an emergency board meeting.
00:58:42You came.
00:58:46Let's skip the performance, Vivian.
00:58:50Still so cold.
00:58:53Don't you remember when you used to bring me soup
00:58:55when 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,
00:59:05but it won't work.
00:59:06What we had,
00:59:08I never took it as seriously
00:59:10as you pretended to.
00:59:12But Lila,
00:59:13she's different.
00:59:14She's real.
00:59:17A pregnant gold digger is real?
00:59:19Please.
00:59:26I guess some things never change.
00:59:32Watch your words.
00:59:35Stay away from my wife.
00:59:45My little girl.
00:59:48Daddy.
00:59:48No.
00:59:51Your 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 Boyce?
01:00:02No.
01:00:02No.
01:00:03Then who?
01:00:04It doesn't matter.
01:00:06But what does matter
01:00:07is 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.
01:00:16Baby.
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.
01:00:30But the 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.
01:00:38It's not like that.
01:00:39Did someone take advantage of you?
01:00:42My little girl pregnant all alone?
01:00:44She's not alone.
01:00:49Hi, Mr. Reid.
01:00:50I'm Adrian Crawford.
01:00:55I'm the father of her child.
01:00:58Indiana.
01:00:59I'm not just the father.
01:01:01I'm the man who's gonna spend
01:01:02the rest of his life
01:01:03making sure your daughter
01:01:04and our child
01:01:05get everything they deserve.
01:01:06Pretty words
01:01:07from a rich man.
01:01:09Not words.
01:01:10Facts.
01:01:11I've already arranged a transfer
01:01:12to a private medical facility.
01:01:14Full treatment plan,
01:01:15best specialists.
01:01:17Adrian.
01:01:19And I promise you this.
01:01:21Every morning,
01:01:22she's gonna wake up
01:01:24knowing that she is cherished.
01:01:25Every decision I make,
01:01:27every step I take
01:01:28will be to ensure her happiness.
01:01:30You really mean that, don't you?
01:01:32Yes, sir, I do.
01:01:35Well,
01:01:38maybe
01:01:39I can stop worrying.
01:01:48Thank you
01:01:49for
01:01:50what you said in there.
01:01:52I know you were just
01:01:52trying to make my father
01:01:53feel better.
01:01:54No, no, no, no.
01:01:55I wasn't just doing anything.
01:01:57Every word I said in there
01:01:58is true.
01:02:00Adrian.
01:02:06Laila,
01:02:07I need to tell you something.
01:02:09I've been falling for you
01:02:10ever since you crashed
01:02:11into my office
01:02:11with that ridiculous
01:02:13donor questionnaire.
01:02:15Yes, we had a contract,
01:02:16but
01:02:17I realized
01:02:19you've become
01:02:20everything to me.
01:02:22You're not my surrogate.
01:02:25You're not my convenient
01:02:26fiance.
01:02:29You're my partner.
01:02:31If you have me.
01:02:36But what about
01:02:37Ethan and Vivian?
01:02:39What about them?
01:02:42Aren't you trying to
01:02:43just get revenge on Ethan
01:02:44and you're saying...
01:02:45Revenge?
01:02:46I never loved Vivian.
01:02:49And Ethan,
01:02:49he's not worth
01:02:49a second thought.
01:02:51Really?
01:02:53And who was the guy
01:02:54I saw competing with Ethan?
01:03:00That was...
01:03:04I was jealous, okay?
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
01:03:15to maintain.
01:03:30I'm not letting you go.
01:03:32I'm not letting you go.
01:03:33Not ever.
01:03:33How...
01:03:41Surrogacy.
01:03:43Surrogacy.
01:03:44Contract marriage.
01:03:45Oh, this is too perfect.
01:03:48Perfect.
01:03:55I don't care.
01:04:21Whiskey. Neat.
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.
01:04:40She's just a surrogate.
01:04:42Their whole engagement is a lie.
01:04:45A contract?
01:04:48The 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.
01:05:07He'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.
01:05:52Would you mind getting me some tea, dear?
01:05:56Would you mind getting me some tea, dear?
01:06:00Surrogacy agreements?
01:06:02And medical contracts?
01:06:05Come on.
01:06:07The train's always so organized.
01:06:09Where is everything?
01:06:19It's just a stupid cat.
01:06:32Are you okay?
01:06:33You're a beast!
01:06:36Attached me!
01:06:37I need your bathroom!
01:06:40Now!
01:06:48Atrium!
01:06:50I've been waiting for you.
01:06:56You know, if you need an heir, we could make one.
01:07:01Right here.
01:07:03Right here.
01:07:04Right now.
01:07:06Lil doesn't have to know.
01:07:08She's already asleep.
01:07:11It could just be our Lil secret.
01:07:16Here?
01:07:18In the living room?
01:07:21Whatever you want.
01:07:23Someone might see us.
01:07:25Are you scared?
01:07:30I know somewhere more.
01:07:33Rabbit.
01:07:41Where are we going?
01:07:43Can't risk being interrupted, can we?
01:07:46Ladies first.
01:07:51Enjoy the fresh air.
01:07:54Adrian!
01:07:55Adrian!
01:07:56You can't do this to me!
01:07:57I'm a Crawford executor!
01:08:04Stop filming me!
01:08:06This is harassment!
01:08:07I will sue you!
01:08:08I will sue you so hard!
01:08:13Adrian!
01:08:14Adrian!
01:08:15Adrian, let me in!
01:08:23Everyone!
01:08:25This crisis could have destroyed us, but thanks to your tireless efforts, Crawford is stronger
01:08:32than ever!
01:08:33To the best team in the business!
01:08:35Yes!
01:08:39Though, speaking of tonight's celebration, there's something you all should be prepared for.
01:08:46For what?
01:08:48My uncle is bringing his fiance 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.
01:09:06I couldn't bear any drama.
01:09:08She left you for your uncle!
01:09:10No!
01:09:12These things happen.
01:09:15Everyone!
01:09:16I'd like to introduce you to my fiancee, Lila Reed.
01:09:21Hello, everybody.
01:09:21It's lovely to meet you all.
01:09:23I need to check some numbers.
01:09:28Did 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.
01:10:04If I know her hospital, then I can get her surrogate history.
01:10:08How thoughtful.
01:10:10But Adrian handles all my appointments personally.
01:10:13The real hero of the hour!
01:10:16Beautiful.
01:10:20Beautiful.
01:10:22Isn't she?
01:10:23The type of woman who belongs in Adrian'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.
01:10:43Oh.
01:10:44But I do.
01:10:44Adrian Crawford cares exactly about one person.
01:10:49Adrian Crawford.
01:10:50He sees people as investments.
01:10:53Vivian?
01:10:54Perfect for managing the company.
01:10:56You?
01:10:57Well, I think we both know what your role is.
01:11:04He's wrong.
01:11:05He has to be wrong.
01:11:13He's wrong.
01:11:14He has to be wrong.
01:11:25Everyone in this world has their place.
01:11:27Everyone in this world has their place.
01:11:28Their purpose.
01:11:30Maybe it's time I found mine again.
01:11:53Maybe when's the last time you ate something?
01:11:56I don't know.
01:11:58Breakfast?
01:12:00Yesterday's breakfast.
01:12:04That's enough for today.
01:12:06Okay.
01:12:11The prenatal instructor said this exercise should help.
01:12:15Okay. Like this?
01:12:17Almost.
01:12:18Almost.
01:12:28I think I need a little more instruction.
01:12:54Everything looks perfect.
01:12:56The baby's development's right on track.
01:12:59Really?
01:13:00Really.
01:13:01Now that you're in the stable period, intimate relations is perfectly safe.
01:13:07As long as you're gentle.
01:13:09Just listen to your bodies and...
01:13:11Yes.
01:13:12Ah, thank you.
01:13:12Doctor.
01:13:32Dr. Anderson.
01:13:33Doctor Anderson.
01:13:40Let's talk about Adrian Crawford's arrangement.
01:13:45Was it a surrogacy contract?
01:13:51Mr. Harrington, doctor-patient confidentiality.
01:13:55I hear that the new hospital complex is looking for department heads.
01:14:02Wouldn't it be a shame if your name was mysteriously removed from the list?
01:14:13Now, about those hospital records.
01:14:34Oh, my God.
01:14:41Surrogacy. Surrogacy. Five generations of Crawford dignity destroyed by tabloid gossip.
01:14:51I knew that girl was hiding something.
01:14:57Did you?
01:14:58Did you really pay some nobody to carry your heir?
01:15:03Tell me it isn't true.
01:15:12You. It's your doing.
01:15:16I...
01:15:17Adrian.
01:15:20I need to discuss something with you. Privately.
01:15:29Adrian. I can make all of this disappear.
01:15:32All you have to do is remember who you really belong with.
01:15:36Who I belong with.
01:15:36We were good together. We can't be again.
01:15:40Give me the position I deserve.
01:15:43As Mrs. Crawford by your side.
01:15:47I do need your help.
01:15:48Please, never show up again.
01:16:06I won't let them hurt you.
01:16:08It's not me I'm worried about.
01:16:10If they expose the truth about our arrangement, you could lose everything.
01:16:17Nothing's more important than you and our child.
01:16:20I'm sorry.
01:16:25Just a minute.
01:16:28I don't like the spark.
01:16:35I don't like the spark.
01:16:36I'm gonna let them know.
01:16:37I don't like the spark.
01:16:38I'm sorry.
01:16:38Hello.
01:16:39This emergency family meeting will come to order.
01:16:42I have proof. Ms. Reed is not Adrian's loving bride-to-be. She's just a surrogate, paid to carry the
01:16:53Crawford heir.
01:16:56I have proof, too. Medical records from Crawford's medical center showing that Ms. Reed underwent fertility treatment, for which she
01:17:06was generously compensated.
01:17:08Paid. Paid surrogacy. How common.
01:17:13Alright, fine. You want the truth? Yes, it started with a surrogacy.
01:17:19But Lilo, she's the woman I chose to be the mother of my child. And I won't let anyone here
01:17:26slander her.
01:17:27You want this arrangement? Fine. But then, it costs you everything.
01:17:36Resign from the company, give up your inheritance.
01:17:40The child kissing the family? Of course.
01:17:43But the mother, well, her services won't be required after delivery.
01:17:54Yes, I did the IVF treatment. But I never, never saw this baby as a business transaction.
01:18:06You know what? You can say whatever you want about me, but don't you dare question my love for this
01:18:13child.
01:18:15I don't know what happened.
01:18:16Don't you dare, why don't you dare question my love for this child's fault.
01:18:26Stop!
01:18:29I'm willing to give up everything. The company, the inheritance, all of it.
01:18:34But I won't give up her. She's my wife, the only one that I will ever want.
01:18:42We're getting married. Properly. Publicly.
01:18:47Fine. You want to throw away everything for this, for this woman.
01:18:54Then you will get nothing from this family.
01:18:58Nothing!
01:18:59Sign it. Renounce your inheritance. All of it.
01:19:07No, no, no, no. Adrian, stop. Not worth losing everything for.
01:19:11You're worth everything.
01:19:16The company, the assets, I built them once. I can build them again.
01:19:21But you, you and our child, we're our real future.
01:19:30Still time to think it over, son.
01:19:40Let's go.
01:19:51Thanks.
01:20:04You've been at this for hours.
01:20:07I just gotta finish this last chapter.
01:20:13I'll get you some food.
01:20:24What do you mean you're cancelling the contract? We've worked together for ten years!
01:20:32No, no, no. Don't call Adrian. Hello? Hello? Hello?
01:20:38The Singapore merger just collapsed. They say they'll only work with Adrian.
01:20:42This is all your fault! You and your billion plan to get rid of her.
01:20:46My fault? You're the one who can't handle basic accounting!
01:20:49Enough!
01:20:51The board meeting starts in five minutes. Please tell me you have good news.
01:21:05Oh my god, this story sounds exactly like a helpful scandal.
01:21:09Wait, is this about the... Adrian Crawford?
01:21:14The billionaires say you're giving up everything for love. I'm crying.
01:21:21Is everything okay?
01:21:23I think I just went viral.
01:21:26I heard out stories about us. Look!
01:21:30Should I be concerned about what else you've revealed about me?
01:21:49Have you seen the comments? They're calling us heartless villains!
01:21:55Can't believe they're trying to separate our true love businesses.
01:21:59Crawford Industries lost my business.
01:22:01Team Adrian all the way.
01:22:04Yes, Penguin Publishing.
01:22:06Sorry, I actually have Random House on the other line, so I'm gonna have to...
01:22:11The movie rights?
01:22:14Um, I'm sorry, I'm gonna have to call you right back.
01:22:17Okay, thank you.
01:22:19The movie rights!
01:22:20What?
01:22:21Oh my god.
01:22:22My wife is so popular now.
01:22:23I know.
01:22:29Your father?
01:22:34Son.
01:22:35The board wants you back.
01:22:37Take your position.
01:22:38Your inheritance.
01:22:40I'll have to ask my wife.
01:22:43What do you think, Mrs. Crawford?
01:22:50You're starting without me.
01:22:53Perfect timing.
01:22:55I'm announcing your termination.
01:22:57You can't fire me.
01:22:59I'm a shareholder and a senior executive.
01:23:02The company crisis last month wasn't an accident.
01:23:06You and Ethan deliberately sabotaged our deal.
01:23:09You can't prove any free email, every call, every secret meeting without competitors.
01:23:16All documented.
01:23:18Lawsuit's already been filed.
01:23:19You and Ethan will be hearing from our lawyers.
01:23:31Oh my god.
01:23:33Yeah.
01:23:39Adrian.
01:23:41I, uh, I think my water just broke.
01:23:44Yeah.
01:23:45Come home.
01:23:48Mr. Crawford, they vote for new director.
01:23:56For her, he'd drop everything.
01:24:01Including a multi-billion dollar.
01:24:12Before we vote, there is something you should know.
01:24:16Adrian and Lila were legally married two months ago.
01:24:21And they have my full blessing.
01:24:37Both my girls still awake?
01:24:45I'm just finishing.
01:24:48The last day of the month, he started watching her in 2012- Five That Meiji, I would never ignore
01:25:01him.
01:25:01And he'd make him laugh and we were married three months in a equal country.
01:25:02After his day, he would be murdered in 1996- sendiri.
