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.
00:00:55Hmmmm.
00:00:59Huh?
00:01:07Huehirghawft
00:01:09Oh, my God.
00:02:00Oh, my God.
00:02:02Myla, you'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, sweetheart, you wouldn't even put out after three years and now you're thinking
00:02:38about playing mommy.
00:02:41Though, if you're finally ready to spread those legs, these lovely ladies can show you
00:02:48how 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, 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.
00:04:13I 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.
00:04:56Right, let's get started.
00:05:01Hey, education background.
00:05:05Excuse me?
00:05:07And I'm going to need a full medical history, specifically genetic disorders.
00:05:12Do you work out?
00:05:13Well, I 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.
00:05:45So, sexual partners in the last six months?
00:05:50I can't show you how it is.
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.
00:06:19As 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.
00:06:41No genetic disorders.
00:06:42And 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.
00:07:06$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, I could help, I
00:07:21can do paperwork, whatever.
00:07:22Talk to me.
00:07:23Bring in the contracts.
00:07:32All of this?
00:07:33Seriously?
00:07:35Take your time to review.
00:07:37But 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.
00:08:16Um, well, I guess, I guess I've, um, made a mistake.
00:08:20So, I'm just gonna go.
00:08:22Wait.
00:08:25A million dollars for carrying my child.
00:08:31I want my own baby, Mr. Crawford, not somebody else's.
00:08:36Ah, you might need that.
00:08:46Clean this up.
00:08:48Bring in the next.
00:08:56Hello?
00:08:57Miss Reed, your father.
00:08:59You need to come now.
00:09:01Okay, I'm coming.
00:09:23Doctor, how is he?
00:09:25How is my father?
00:09:26The cancer is spread aggressively without immediate treatment.
00:09:30Then do something.
00:09:32Save 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.
00:09:55Sorry.
00:10:35This is the last batch.
00:10:36Yes, sir.
00:10:38The blonde want to know about ring sizes.
00:10:41And brunette asked about moving in.
00:10:45And the redhead...
00:10:47All of them want the Crawford name.
00:10:50It was qualified.
00:10:53She was refreshing.
00:10:56No pretense.
00:10:57No schemes.
00:10:59But she wasn't even here for surrogacy.
00:11:02Sometimes the best candidate isn't looking for the job.
00:11:30I've been thinking.
00:11:32I've been thinking.
00:11:33I've been thinking.
00:11:36about yesterday I may have been a bit hasty you're reconsidering don't sound
00:11:42so smug about it I have my reasons as do I I'd like to propose a modification to
00:11:52the original terms what kind of modification joint custody you wouldn't
00:11:57be just carrying the child you'd be the baby's mother why would you agree to
00:12:01that you're honest direct no hidden agenda qualities I wanted my child's
00:12:09mother so I'd really get to be a part of the baby's life yes but understand this
00:12:14clearly we'll be parents nothing more no romantic entanglements no emotional
00:12:21expectations don't flutter yourself rich man and there he goes father the board is
00:12:34getting impatient have you considered the arrangements I suggested I already made
00:12:40my own plans Adrian if you're thinking of using some random surrogate to produce an
00:12:47air forget it the Crawford name means something I won't let it be tainted by
00:12:53I've already chosen my fiance what we'll discuss this at dinner did I just get
00:13:01promoted from surrogate to fiance correct me if I'm wrong but didn't you just say
00:13:11just parents nothing more the situation requires adaptation mmm is that CEO talk
00:13:22for I changed my mind if we need a convincing story you'll be staying at my
00:13:26house during the pregnancy and after the baby comes we'll arrange for an
00:13:30amicable separation continue parenting and I'll arrange for any additional
00:13:36compensation for the complexity the original amount is fine but I am gonna
00:13:43need it soon

00:16:28Here.
00:16:30What?
00:16:31Unless you prefer explaining to the staff why the happy couple sleep in separate rooms.
00:16:37Oh, of course. Fake engagement. Real roommates.
00:16:43Don't worry. I'll be a perfect gentleman.
00:17:11What are you doing?
00:17:13This is the line. Don't cross it. Ever.

00:18:08Stay on your side.
00:18:16Myla, wake up.
00:18:21Myla, please.
00:18:42Control.
00:18:44This is the next game.
00:18:45Control.
00:19:01Sorry.
00:19:03Didn't see you there.
00:19:07You're always in the way.
00:19:12Ah, my brother's mysterious fiancée.
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 Adrienne meet exactly?
00:19:33Through mutual friends.
00:19:37Oh, really? Mutual friends.
00:19:42Dear, what friend of Adrienne's would possibly move in your social circles?
00:19:49Unless this is more of a business arrangement.
00:19:52Unless this is more of a business arrangement.
00:19:52I'm sorry?
00:19:54Well, a girl of your position.
00:19:56Surely 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 Adrienne's fiancée, your presence is required.
00:20:20I'll be honoured.
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 the...
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.
00:21:47Lila, 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?
00:22:33Oh, that's awkward.
00:22:37Just a small thing.
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.
00:22:58Oh, shit.
00:23:02Shit.
00:23:03Shit.
00:23:11I don't know.
00:23:14I don't know.
00:23:45Mr. Crawford, is everything okay in there?
00:23:49Yeah, I'm fine.
00:23:50I just need some assistance.
00:23:53Oh, do you need my help?
00:23:55No, I didn't mean...
00:23:57Oh, sure, honestly, it's fine.
00:23:58I can come in if you need me to.
00:24:02Come in.
00:24:13So, you want to help?
00:24:14Of course.
00:24:16What do you need me to...
00:24:21Oh, you're...
00:24:22Oh, you're...
00:24:23I'm so sorry.
00:24:25I didn't realize.
00:24:27I'm just gonna just go somewhere.
00:24:30I just need you somewhere very far.
00:24:32Hey, I'm sorry.
00:24:36Well, 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.
00:24:51Yeah, it's a little uncomfortable.
00:24:53But I mean, it will pass.
00:24:56Here.
00:24:59Oh, okay.
00:25:13Thanks.
00:25:18Well, the hormone shots were a part of the agreement,
00:25:20and any resulting pain is technically a work-related issue.
00:25:23And as your employer, I have a duty of care.
00:25:27You're okay.
00:25:55Purely professional care.
00:26:06Purely professional, huh?
00:26:08Uh-huh.
00:26:16Adrian.
00:26:20Um, about this weekend...
00:26:21I'm sorry.
00:26:22There's an emergency in Atlanta.
00:26:23The merge is falling apart.
00:26:26Thompson, 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 loss in Harris, 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?
00:26:56What did you say she did, Ethan?
00:26:57Retail?
00:26:57Worse.
00:26:58A 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.
00:27:35Trying 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 reading.
00:27:50Actually, I made this dress myself.
00:27:57Oh, darling.
00:27:59A seamstress for a daughter-in-law?
00:28:02How 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, 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.
00:29:12Don't touch me.
00:29:14You used to like it when I touched you.
00:29:17Remember how shy you were?
00:29:19Always saying no.
00:29:21Land off me, bastard!
00:29:23Careful, 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?
00:29:41Everything all right, dear?
00:29:43You look flushed.
00:29:45So, as I was saying about...
00:29:51Stop it!
00:29:53Something wrong, Miss Reed?
00:29:55Stop 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 sued her.
00:30:19Who convinced her to give me a chance.
00:30:24Adrian.
00:30:25If anyone's unworthy in this relationship, it's me.
00:30:28You want to know how we met?
00:30:30She crashed into my life, quite literally.
00:30:32Papers flying, coffee spilled.
00:30:35Unlike some people, she didn't care about my name or my money.
00:30:40She, uh, refused me several times.
00:30:43Called me too arrogant, too 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 knew it.
00:30:51I knew it.
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.
00:31:08I'll set a merger.
00:31:10Yes, sir.
00:31:13Funny that last week family's dinners were the most pointless waste of time in existence.
00:31:21Something's more important than business.
00:31:27Oh, what a touching story, Uncle.
00:31:31Too 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.
00:32:32I 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 fiancée, you have access to the family accounts.
00:33:04I expect you to use them.
00:33:06I...
00:33:06I didn't want to presume.
00:33:08You'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 wife.
00:33:47What are your thoughts?
00:33:51I think that we should go to bed.
00:33:55We 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.
00:34:46I'm merely 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's acting like a princess.
00:35:14And you don't got her.
00:35:21Oh...
00:35:23Oh...
00:35:24Oh...
00:35:45Adrien!
00:35:46Not quite.
00:35:47Looking a bit unstable there, baby.
00:35:49Let go of me!
00:35:51Come on!
00:35:52I used to love being in my arms.
00:35:54Remember how we would spend hours at the cafe?
00:35:58You would lean into me while reading your favorite book?
00:36:01Did she?
00:36:05Adrien!
00:36:05I was just getting food, I swear.
00:36:11Get out!
00:36:16My stomach.
00:36:18Lada, what's wrong?
00:36:19My stomach. I think that there's something wrong.
00:36:20If anything, anything happens to my fiancé 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?
00:36:53Well...
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?
00:37:12Do you need my help?
00:37:13You can't help on this one.
00:37:14Just 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.
00:37:38Adrien, 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?
00:37:57Mm-hmm.
00:38:10What the...
00:38:23What are you doing?
00:38:25Yes, it's delicious.
00:38:28The 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.
00:38:46Okay, okay, okay.
00:38:47How about a compromise?
00:38:49One treat per day.
00:38:51Half a treat.
00:38:53Three quarters.
00:38:55Three quarters.
00:38:55Three quarters.
00:39:18The fetus is developing perfectly.
00:39:20Really?
00:39:23Everything looks wonderful.
00:39:24Now that we're in the stable period, I 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 this album.
00:40:24Yeah, please.
00:40:43The Charity Gala isn't a test.
00:40:47Your father specifically invited me to attend.
00:41:08You're perfect.
00:41:12Just be yourself.
00:41:18Then...
00:41:20This...
00:41:21This is not me.
00:41:24This baby...
00:41:26This baby...
00:41:29This baby...
00:41:31I'm one of them.
00:41:39This baby is a smart mess.
00:41:40This baby...
00:41:40We're due to a mystery outside of my room.
00:41:41This lady is caring for those new dads and all of them.
00:41:42What kind of homework?
00:41:42Atron!
00:41:44It's been too long!
00:41:50You look exactly the same.
00:42:02And you must be the fiancée.
00:42:05I'm so pleased Adrienne has found someone after all these years.
00:42:10That'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. I knew it was you, Vivian.
00:42:40When is the wedding?
00:42:45Actually, I'd like to introduce you all to my fiancée, Lala Reid.
00:42:57We'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. I just assumed congratulations for you both.
00:43:12Adrienne Crawford and a complete unknown? How did you manage that?
00:43:17Adrienne chose for over Vivian? Is he crazy?
00:43:21Oh, Benji, how have you been?
00:43:23Great.
00:43:24Let's go.
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.
00:44:19He hates when I take things from him.
00:44:21What are you talking about?
00:44:30Perfect couple, right?
00:44:33Until...
00:44:37Vivian fell madly in love with me.
00:44:40Leaving dear Uncle Heartbroken.
00:44:43Since then,
00:44:45whatever I want,
00:44:46he has to take.
00:44:48Whatever I have,
00:44:50he has to win.
00:44:51Like you.
00:44:54What you want,
00:44:56you never have.
00:44:58Never.
00:44:59You and Ethan,
00:45:00you've never really
00:45:01gone along, have you?
00:45:04You don't get it.
00:45:06Stop being naive.
00:45:07You're just his tool
00:45:09for revenge.
00:45:18I'm just his tool
00:45:20for revenge?
00:45:34What do you think you're doing?
00:45:36You are pregnant.
00:45:37Why are you drinking?
00:45:39Oh, now you care.
00:45:43It's soda.
00:45:44I know what I'm doing.
00:46:00What happened back there?
00:46:01Talk to me.
00:46:04My love,
00:46:05I am worried.
00:46:07So you talk to Ethan,
00:46:08but not me.
00:46:10Oh, you do care so much
00:46:12about your nephew,
00:46:13don't you?
00:46:28Violet, open the door.
00:46:32Please.
00:46:50We watched that season
00:46:53when I go.
00:46:57I'd walk it
00:46:59and...
00:47:04The eggs are still warm.
00:47:08I apologize about last night.
00:47:09I was...
00:47:11I was just worried about you.
00:47:13Worried about me?
00:47:14Or worried about the baby?
00:47:19What do you mean?
00:47:21Is this why you're being
00:47:22so nice to me?
00:47:24Making me breakfast,
00:47:26being all protective,
00:47:28just for the baby?
00:47:31Lila, you...
00:47:32You've been so strange
00:47:34since yesterday.
00:47:35Why?
00:47:36Was Vivian your girlfriend?
00:47:44Yes.
00:47:51And then she got with Ethan?
00:47:55Yes.
00:47:57Okay, so...
00:47:58So I'm just...
00:47:59Vivian and I were...
00:48:06Sir, the Singapore version
00:48:07is falling apart.
00:48:08We need to immediately.
00:48:10I'm in the middle of something.
00:48:12The board is threatening
00:48:12to pull out.
00:48:14I'll be there.
00:48:21We need to finish this conversation
00:48:23as 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.
00:48:49During your absence,
00:48:50Mr. Ethan has been meeting
00:48:51with board members
00:48:52suggesting our sudden
00:48:54marriage plans
00:48:55indicate
00:48:56obstacle
00:48:56decision making.
00:48:58Several executors
00:48:59are questioning
00:49:00if someone so
00:49:01personally distracted
00:49:04should
00:49:04inherit the company.
00:49:23Mr. Crawford,
00:49:24we've been discussing
00:49:25my personal life.
00:49:26Your sudden access
00:49:27has let me be very...
00:49:30clear.
00:49:35This company took
00:49:36a 40% profit loss
00:49:38before I took over.
00:49:40Within three years,
00:49:41I tripled our market share.
00:49:43Every major merger,
00:49:45every successful acquisition,
00:49:46every stock surge,
00:49:48my execution,
00:49:49my strategies.
00:49:51So yes,
00:49:52I am getting married.
00:49:54And yes,
00:49:55I took some time off
00:49:56and no,
00:49:58not a single person
00:49:59in this room
00:50:00has the right to question
00:50:01my commitment
00:50:02or my capability.
00:50:05Because without me,
00:50:07there will be a company
00:50:08left to inherit.
00:50:11Now,
00:50:14shall we discuss the merger?
00:50:26That's the right,
00:50:34It's a long time ago.
00:50:35shall I choose from?
00:50:35There's no one person
00:50:36Take care.
00:50:36I need to move on.
00:50:44How do you?
00:50:46How do you do?
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.
00:54:03I'm fine.
00:54:05I'm fine.

01:16:17nothing's more important than you and our child
01:16:38this emergency family meeting will come to order
01:16:42I have proof
01:16:45Ms. Reed
01:16:45is not Adrian's loving bride-to-be
01:16:49she's just a surrogate
01:16:52paid to carry the Crawford heir
01:16:56I have proof too
01:16:59medical records from Crawford's medical center
01:17:01showing that Ms. Reed underwent fertility treatment
01:17:04for which she was generously compensated
01:17:08paid surrogacy
01:17:10how common
01:17:13alright fine
01:17:14you want the truth?
01:17:16yes, it started with a surrogacy
01:17:19but Lilo
01:17:21she's the woman I chose to be the mother of my child
01:17:24and I won't let anyone here slander her
01:17:27you want this arrangement?
01:17:29fine
01:17:31but then
01:17:32it costs you everything
01:17:36resign from the company
01:17:37give up your inheritance
01:17:40the child kissing the family?
01:17:42of course
01:17:43but the mother, well, her services won't be required after delivery
01:17:55yes, I did the IVF treatment
01:17:57but I never, never saw this baby as a business transaction
01:18:06you know what, you can say whatever you want about me
01:18:09but don't you dare question my love for this child
01:18:15would you dare?
01:18:17would you dare?
01:18:23would you dare?
01:18:25would you dare?
01:18:25would you dare?
01:18:26would you dare?
01:18:28I'm willing to give up everything
01:18:31the company, the inheritance, all of it
01:18:33but I won't give up her
01:18:37she's my wife
01:18:38the only one that I will ever want
01:18:42We're getting married. Properly. Publicly.
01:18:47Fine. If you want to throw away everything for this, for this woman, then you will get nothing from this
01:18:57family.
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? I 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. Sorry, 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?
01:22:50First order of business.
01:22:52You're starting without me.
01:22:54Perfect 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.
01:23:32Oh my god.
01:23:33Oh my god.
01:23:38Yeah.
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, including a multi-billion dollar card.
01:24:12Before we vote, there is something you should know.
01:24:15Adrian 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.
01:24:48I'm just finishing.
01:25:00I'm just finishing.
01:25:02And I just finished.
01:25:02I'm just finishing.
