00:01:19I
00:01:26Have an interview later mother
00:01:28Swear Ashton you throw away assistants as if they have expiration dates printed on them. Don't worry. I won't take long
00:01:36this is the third time this month and
00:01:39Every time it means thousands of dollars paid to shut up these blood-sucking flies on the wall
00:01:45Come on
00:01:46Boys just want to have fun not when you're taking over a publicly traded company in two weeks
00:01:54Leave me no choice
00:01:58You're not crossing me off the trust fund I
00:02:02won't
00:02:03If you get married this company is your father's life's work. I'm not letting a weak link ruin it
00:02:10I'm so sorry for interrupting
00:02:17Um, thank you
00:02:19Who did her hair? Do you think she even combed it this morning? No, she did not come in. It's called a rat's nest. Oh, yes
00:02:29This is bullshit it can help redeem your image
00:02:33I'll show the public that you stopped screwing around
00:02:36Started acting like I'm from I never wanted to be CEO. You know very well why it cannot be the same
00:02:44What do I have to remind you?
00:02:47No
00:02:56You're the heir to the cross family Ashton
00:02:59This is the hand you've been dealt with
00:03:02Play it. Well
00:03:04This company is your father's life's work. I'm so sorry for interrupting but
00:03:11Jeff said he needed your signature in three minutes or
00:03:14We wouldn't be able to close the contract with Gabe from KNL and he'd be really really unhappy
00:03:20Who are you Pam from marketing strategies? It mrs. Cross. It's a pleasure to meet you. Thank you Pam
00:03:28Well, obviously
00:03:29Pam and I have a lot of work to do
00:03:32We'll talk about this another time
00:03:35You're not off the hook Ashton
00:03:37I've gone through great lengths to set you up with some very worthy candidates
00:03:41Remember you have two weeks and I want to see a ring
00:03:48We're so sorry, mr. Cross we didn't mean to let this woman disturb you. Yeah, we're really sorry
00:03:54We'll escort her out right away. Did I say I wanted her out?
00:03:58She's fine she can say go back to work
00:04:04Now go back to work
00:04:11Zoe
00:04:13Zoe Campbell
00:04:15Why did you just burst in here like that?
00:04:16I didn't mean to eavesdrop but it sounded like you could use an escape from that conversation
00:04:21And you came up with that whole story on the spot just like that. I act fast under pressure
00:04:32You're hired
00:04:34Your first day starts right now didn't expect it to be so easy. But yes
00:04:40I guess it all starts right now. I
00:04:47Never said I was selling
00:04:50Xander
00:04:51Wouldn't it make more sense if you didn't live in a penthouse?
00:04:55He'd also be closer to your PT, which mother says is progressing. I
00:05:00Wouldn't call taking five steps with a walker progressing
00:05:04I
00:05:05Should probably say I
00:05:08See, my little brother has yet another young lady in his life. This is my new assistant. Her name is Zoe. I
00:05:16Shall enjoy getting to know your acquaintance Zoe at least these next few months Xander I can fend for myself
00:05:24What happened to you car accident our father died
00:05:28Cross Kingdom shattered overnight with the press forgot to mention
00:05:33You were there in the accident
00:05:37Can we discuss the apartment this meeting's completely been derailed
00:05:43So we perhaps it's best if Xander not continue alone
00:05:52Wait, so so I'm telling you now
00:05:56If he doesn't bend you over one way
00:06:00He'll break you
00:06:02Really Xander, thank you for your concern
00:06:05But the last thing you need to worry about is me falling for your brother. I
00:06:10Assure you you should be more afraid of me
00:06:15Interesting Xander, please. I'm only trying to help you. I
00:06:22Don't know about you, but I could use a drink
00:06:33I guess you could say that my relationship with my brother is improving
00:06:37I mean at least you're willing to work on it
00:06:39I know my brother and I know he's charming most of those women were in your position
00:06:45Maybe Xander secretly wants to be close to you
00:06:48Yeah
00:06:49We don't have to talk about my brother or business
00:06:53What should we talk about?
00:06:56We don't have to talk about my brother or business what should we talk about
00:07:02you tricked my mother and
00:07:04Stood your own against Xander on the same day. That makes me a little
00:07:09curious
00:07:11You know, they say curiosity is a dangerous thing I'm not just another assistant you're gonna go home with I
00:07:20Had a lovely evening though, and I'll see you tomorrow
00:07:32You
00:08:03I
00:08:08Curiosity isn't enough. I need his trust
00:08:12I've changed my face. I've come so far
00:08:16There's no turning back
00:08:18I'll find out the truth about you Audrey
00:08:20And I'll make him pay
00:08:23Promise I
00:08:28Can't believe she left with Ashton last
00:08:33Oh
00:08:35My god, you spilled coffee everywhere
00:08:52Excuse me ladies. I'm afraid I need to confiscate your key cards and escort you out. Wait, what why there's a direct order from?
00:09:00Mr. Cross he fired us. I mean, he can't do that. I believe he can
00:09:06Now are you packing yourself? What do you need a hand?
00:09:17You messed up the wrong person
00:09:31You
00:09:34Zoe get in coming with me
00:09:38Look, mr. Cross. I appreciate what you did, but I can't be seen going home with you every night. It's unprofessional
00:09:45So you're my assistant now
00:09:47You're gonna work when I need you to work or I can save us both the trouble and fire you right now
00:09:5426 hours, that would be a record even for me
00:10:01Can I at least ask where we're going on a date
00:10:10Can I at least ask where we're going on a date
00:10:17Mr. Cross I can't do this black Zoe. This isn't for you. This is for me and a friend
00:10:25You brought me on a date with another woman
00:10:28Technically three other women
00:10:31Why would you do that? I trust your judgment. Tell me which one of these girls I should marry. I
00:10:40Just love yachts, you know you sail out from LA and the entire Atlantic Ocean is yours
00:10:47Yeah, Pacific Ocean
00:10:50What?
00:10:53I actually don't own a yacht
00:10:56But you're rich. I'm sorry. This is a deal-breaker
00:11:01Maybe you should just go for your assistant. She's
00:11:09Babies I mean, they're just so small
00:11:11They're scrunchy and they look old like old people
00:11:14But they're they're little and they're babies and they don't know how to talk to you
00:11:17And so they start screaming and they start crying and then they poop and it goes everywhere and I throw up and like honestly
00:11:23It's the grossest thing I've ever
00:11:25experienced in my entire life and not even that I
00:11:27Experienced babies because I've never been around babies other than the fact that I used to be a baby
00:11:31I just I do not like babies like at all
00:11:35I think children are one of the most amazing gifts of life and you are so funny Ashton
00:11:40I mean the reality is is that babies would also get in the way of my social life and I have very
00:11:46High standards for like living and so don't you think that's kind of selfish?
00:11:54I'm being a realist and
00:11:57You're joking right a man with your playboy reputation. You're honestly telling me that you want to settle down and have children
00:12:09You are so funny
00:12:12You are so funny
00:12:15My mother said that you study literature you uh read Fitzgerald
00:12:20Who oh?
00:12:22No, I didn't go to school. I didn't go to school with him. I don't think I went to school
00:12:26No, no, no Fitzgerald. Yeah, the great Gatsby. I
00:12:31Love Leonardo DiCaprio. I love him. I was at a party and he was like so
00:12:37Hitting on me
00:12:41Everything's been taken care of have a great night. All right. Oh you paid for it. Yeah. Oh really? Oh, thank you. Yeah
00:12:47Have another date
00:12:50Can you order another way like on your way out, okay, tell your mom I said hi miss her, okay
00:13:03Thank you, absolutely
00:13:05Cheers
00:13:09So, um, it's your own you want kids
00:13:13To say I did not expect that
00:13:17Let me guess you thought I was some playboy who didn't care about anything just like everybody else
00:13:23truth is
00:13:25when people misunderstand you
00:13:28And enough misunderstand you you slowly forget who you are, too
00:13:36This place is amazing
00:13:40Xander and I designed this place Wow, you're close
00:13:46Yeah until we weren't
00:13:51Do you have any siblings and no
00:13:56It's just me
00:13:59You know
00:14:01Two years ago, it was actually me. It was supposed to be on that flight to Zurich with my father not Xander
00:14:09Sometimes I wish it was me
00:14:14It was late at night
00:14:18The car was headed to the airport
00:14:23But I didn't show up
00:14:27Xander was the air
00:14:30He was raised to take over the company
00:14:35But I ruined him
00:14:37You didn't ruin him. No one's meant to be one thing. I mean
00:14:42We all have a choice
00:14:45Not in my world Zoe
00:14:47You saw for yourself. I
00:14:50Can't even get married when I'd like well, maybe not when but you get to choose who that's the most important part
00:14:59Oh
00:15:04What if I chose you
00:15:14What if I chose you
00:15:18What
00:15:21You heard me
00:15:24Oh
00:15:27Zoe Campbell, will you marry me?
00:15:33And this is the joke
00:15:36joking
00:15:37I've
00:15:39Never been more serious
00:15:41Listen Ashton, you may be used to getting whatever you want whenever you want it. I don't want to marry you out of convenience
00:15:48Zoe
00:15:50Women see me as a golden ticket to money and fame
00:15:54My father's passed away
00:15:56Xander sees me as competition and my mother sees me as a pawn to save the family business
00:16:00But you Zoe you actually see me for who I really am
00:16:06It's good you should have used that with some of your blind dates I
00:16:14Have to get married or I'm crossed off the trust fund negotiate your price
00:16:20I'll have it put together
00:16:22I'll find out the truth about you Audrey and make him pay
00:16:38How do I look
00:16:42City's most eligible bachelors off the market my mom gets what she wants most able-bodied son
00:16:50Takes the throne and keeps his trust fund and today's your big day
00:16:54See you out there
00:17:07This is cross
00:17:12What a lovely bride you are Ashton is a very lucky man
00:17:17Thank you, but you can cut the act with me sweetheart. I know you and Ashton aren't really together
00:17:26Well if you really believe that then why didn't you do something I
00:17:30Wanted to at first
00:17:32But then I realized
00:17:34You're actually perfect
00:17:37Why didn't you do something I?
00:17:39Wanted to at first
00:17:42But then I realized
00:17:44You're actually perfect
00:17:47You're actually perfect a working-class girl from the wrong side of the tracks
00:17:52pretty
00:17:54But not too gorgeous
00:17:58Sweet
00:18:00But not too innocent
00:18:03You're a real-life Cinderella and the people love seeing a fairy tale come true
00:18:10How do you know this will work?
00:18:13because
00:18:15It worked for Robert and me
00:18:19My husband built this Empire, but he wouldn't have been able to rule it without me
00:18:25And now it's your turn to stand next to Ashton on the throne
00:18:30Support him help him and
00:18:35Play your part
00:18:38I'm on this cross of course you will I intend to make sure of it
00:18:46You
00:18:53Stay with Ashton, and you'll have everything you need title money
00:18:59Leave him or harm him or his company's name in any way
00:19:06And not only won't you see a single penny, but I will personally destroy you
00:19:15Well, that's where you're wrong mrs.. Cross, I don't want anything from him I
00:19:21Just want Ashton
00:19:32I think it looks perfect. Don't you think so mom?
00:19:38The
00:19:44Essence of marriage is love trust and honesty
00:19:49virtues that we as human beings share
00:19:53Ashton Cross
00:19:55Do you take this woman to be your wedded wife?
00:19:58I do
00:20:00Zoe Campbell do you take this man to be your wedded husband to cherish for better or worse?
00:20:08for richer for poorer
00:20:11Until death do you part?
00:20:13You
00:20:35Yes, I do
00:20:38As a token of your vows you may exchange your symbol of love
00:20:54By the power vested in me by God I now pronounce you husband and wife you may kiss the bride
00:21:08I
00:21:10Uh oh, I don't like that look.
00:21:33There seems to be a competition going on called who can come up with the most humiliating
00:21:38article about Zoey Campbell.
00:21:40Zoey Campbell puts a ring on Ashton Kross a week after becoming his assistant.
00:21:44One can only imagine how good Mrs. Campbell is at impressing her boss.
00:21:51Why are you even reading that garbage?
00:21:55I'm just not used to seeing my name trending.
00:22:04See something you like?
00:22:05Nothing I haven't seen before.
00:22:06Fine, I'm going to go dress for dinner.
00:22:11I think you're fine.
00:22:12Right where you are.
00:22:43Sorry.
00:22:44I've never felt like this before Zoey.
00:22:55Look me in my eyes.
00:22:59Tell me you feel the same way.
00:23:04This marriage is just a piece of paper.
00:23:08It's a contract.
00:23:10Nothing more.
00:23:12What happened to the woman at your work who killed herself?
00:23:27Did you know her?
00:23:28Um, no.
00:23:29Not really.
00:23:30I know that she was nice.
00:23:31I saw her in the office a few times, but that was it.
00:23:32Why are you asking?
00:23:33Nothing.
00:23:34I saw it on the news.
00:23:35Thought it was sad.
00:23:36Just wanted to know what the deal was.
00:23:37Yeah.
00:23:38Don't worry about the articles.
00:23:39I'll have it taken care of.
00:23:40You won't see anything tomorrow.
00:23:42Yeah.
00:23:43Don't mention it.
00:23:44Good night.
00:24:05That's what I did.

00:25:06I need to get rid of it all.
00:25:07All right.
00:25:08Well, if I can't meet the guy, you at least have to tell him to send me back home.
00:25:09Are you OK?
00:25:10Oh, I'm telling you, I'm trying to take care of everything you need via WhatsApp.
00:25:21I don't need you to tell me anything.
00:25:24I'm sorry.
00:25:25I'm really not.
00:25:26I'm sorry.
00:25:27I'm sorry.
00:25:28I'm sorry.
00:25:29I'm sorry.
00:25:30I'm sorry.
00:25:31I'm sorry.
00:25:32Yeah, you at least have to tell me something about him.
00:25:34What do you guys do? Do you go dancing?
00:25:36Um, he can't really dance.
00:25:38What do you mean he can't dance?
00:25:40You love dancing.
00:25:41He just doesn't, okay?
00:25:44Zoey!
00:25:47I pulled off a meeting, and I'm taking you to lunch.
00:25:51I wasn't expecting you on so soon.
00:25:53Oh, can a guy take his girl out on a date?
00:25:57Yeah.
00:26:00But, I feel like there's something you're not telling me.
00:26:10I feel like there's something you're not telling me.
00:26:16You're a cheeseburger girl, aren't you?
00:26:18Not a lobster girl.
00:26:20What?
00:26:21I'm taking you to lunch, and I never really asked.
00:26:24Do you like cheeseburgers, or do you like lobster?
00:26:27I, um...
00:26:29Oh, sounds like we need to get some food in you pretty quick.
00:26:33Don't worry, I already made reservations at Ill Floor.
00:26:36They have cheeseburgers and lobster.
00:26:38I, look Ashton, there's something I have to tell you.
00:26:43Wait, how can I be so stupid?
00:26:46I keep making these reservations, and I never even asked about your feelings.
00:26:51I keep showing you my world, but you haven't even had a chance to show me yours.
00:26:56Forget the reservations. Let's go wherever you want.
00:27:00Um, okay.
00:27:16Mmm, now this is food.
00:27:26Is everything okay?
00:27:28Yeah, it's just...
00:27:32I don't do stuff like this often.
00:27:35You wouldn't believe it, but this is my first ever picnic.
00:27:38What? Like, not even as a kid?
00:27:40Between Latin, math, leadership class, we didn't really have time to be kids.
00:27:52Come on.
00:27:53Where are we going?
00:27:54Somewhere we can be kids again.
00:28:01You want me to do this?
00:28:03Uh-huh.
00:28:04Zoe, I'm a 28-year-old man in an $8,500 suit.
00:28:08I'm not kidding on that. That's crazy.
00:28:11I married someone I knew less than 30 hours.
00:28:14I think I get to decide what's crazy or not.
00:28:18This?
00:28:19Yeah, sit down.
00:28:21Is this your first time on a swing?
00:28:24No. Why would you think that?
00:28:27Oh my God, it is. Okay.
00:28:29Look, you're just going to have to trust me, okay?
00:28:31I'm not going to let you fall.
00:28:32Okay. Don't forget it.
00:28:36When I was little, my sister used to push me so high,
00:28:39and I would just focus on the sky.
00:28:42It felt like I was flying.
00:28:45Wow.
00:28:47So, Ashton Cross, what do you think about my world?
00:28:55It's chaotic, but wonderful.
00:29:05Hey, you two!
00:29:07This is clearly not the time or place.
00:29:09Children, God, get a room!
00:29:12God, get a room!
00:29:25You see anything you like?
00:29:28Nothing I haven't seen before.
00:29:33Now that I haven't seen before.
00:29:43I love you.
00:30:02I love what you've done with the place.
00:30:05None for me.
00:30:07Since when?
00:30:09Since...
00:30:12Holy shit, you're pregnant?
00:30:14Am I going to get to meet the guy before I leave town?
00:30:17It's complicated.
00:30:18He's complicated, and everything's happening so fast,
00:30:22and I'm scared that something might go wrong.
00:30:24You are happy though, right?
00:30:26I just worry about you living here without me now.
00:30:29Zoe, I'm fine.
00:30:31I mean, I don't know, you're just rushing into this relationship,
00:30:34and now, motherhood adds so much stress.
00:30:37I'm in a really good place now.
00:30:39I've been doing this new therapy.
00:30:41Yeah, but I mean, you're rushing into a relationship with this guy
00:30:45that is going to be the father of your child, and I haven't even met him.
00:30:48Zoe...
00:30:51He loves me.
00:30:53I know he does.
00:30:56He loves me.
00:30:58I know he does.
00:31:01You'd be crazy not to.
00:31:11Audrey?
00:31:16Audrey?
00:31:23No, Audrey, please!
00:31:26Zoe, are you okay?
00:31:28Zoe!
00:31:30You're screaming!
00:31:34I'm fine.
00:31:36I'm fine.
00:31:42I'm fine.
00:31:44Are you sure?
00:31:50I had a sister.
00:31:54Our parents died when we were young, so, you know,
00:31:59growing up in orphanages and foster homes,
00:32:03you never really feel like anything belongs to you.
00:32:07Snacks and toys, you share everything.
00:32:11And my sister, she developed this habit
00:32:16that any time she felt like something was hers, truly hers,
00:32:21she would write her initials on it.
00:32:29She was all I had.
00:32:31She was all I had.
00:32:35And now that she's gone, it's just like I don't have anything.
00:32:39I totally understand.
00:32:51My dad was the only person alive who understood me.
00:32:55And after he died,
00:32:58I haven't had a real connection with anyone since.
00:33:01Anything remotely real,
00:33:03Xander would sabotage out of jealousy.
00:33:09Wait here.
00:33:11I love you.
00:33:27Now you can have something that's actually yours again.
00:33:41Don't blame this all on your brother.
00:33:43You need to learn to control your anger.
00:33:46It's consuming you.
00:33:48If you're not asking, I'm not answering.
00:33:50You know this is the only way.
00:33:52It should be me and you know it.
00:33:55And he had the nerve to offer me an advisor position
00:33:58to the company you took away from me.
00:34:00You think I want to hand the company over to him?
00:34:04You're right, Xander. It should be you.
00:34:08We have the board and the shareholders to convince,
00:34:11and they're blind.
00:34:13All they see is you in a wheelchair.
00:34:15Fuck the board! Fuck the shareholders!
00:34:17This is what I mean.
00:34:19The rage.
00:34:21You were once committed to getting better.
00:34:25We can get over what happened.
00:34:28But you can't.
00:34:30We can get over what happened.
00:34:33But you have to want it.
00:34:35He doesn't deserve everything.
00:34:37Your father would have wanted you both to be happy.
00:34:41And that's all I want for you.
00:34:57Are you sure you're not coming?
00:34:59Do I want to go to a charity gala that snobby rich people hold
00:35:02just to feel better about buying three million dollar mansions
00:35:05and not paying taxes?
00:35:08I'm good. Thank you, though.
00:35:11Hey, you better watch it.
00:35:13You're married to one of those rich snobby people now.
00:35:16Come on, Zoe.
00:35:18We'll find some way to have fun.
00:35:26Go.
00:35:28You'll be late.
00:35:30Fine. I'll have a car to pick you up if you change your mind.
00:35:48Nothing I haven't seen before.
00:35:59Audrey.
00:36:11Can you get the car ready, please?
00:36:13I am going to the gala.
00:36:15And, um...
00:36:17Don't let Mr. Cross know I'm coming.
00:36:20I want it to be a surprise.
00:36:23Don't let Mr. Cross know I'm coming.
00:36:25I want it to be a surprise.
00:36:33Care to grab your brother a drink?
00:36:46So, how's the married life?
00:36:48And how's my sister-in-law?
00:36:50She's good.
00:36:52Really, her thing?
00:36:54That's good. You know, I was worried about her.
00:36:57People are going to say what they're going to say,
00:36:59but she shouldn't let those rumors bother her.
00:37:02Rumors? What are you talking about?
00:37:05I took care of everything.
00:37:07This came out 30 minutes ago.
00:37:10An anonymous source leaked the pronuncial agreement
00:37:13between real estate mogul Ashton Cross and Zoe Campbell,
00:37:16showing that this is a well-constructed fake marriage.
00:37:20News confirmed suspicions that Zoe is a ploy for Ashton
00:37:23to finally seize the throne of Cross Enterprise.
00:37:30I'm just glad Zoe's not here to take the blowout.
00:37:37Zoe?
00:37:45You told me you barely knew her.
00:37:47What are you talking about?
00:37:48I'm talking about this book.
00:37:49That's Xander's book.
00:37:50Zoe, we've got something bigger going on right now.
00:37:52What do you mean it's Xander's book? How could he...
00:37:55Yeah, I can tell you're upset, but...
00:37:58Look at this.
00:38:01An anonymous source leaked the pronuncial agreement
00:38:03between real estate mogul Ashton Cross and Zoe Campbell,
00:38:06showing that this is a well-constructed fake marriage.
00:38:09I know that this is a sham marriage,
00:38:12but I'm falling for you.
00:38:14And I want to protect us.
00:38:16Protect you.
00:38:19I don't know why, but I believe you.
00:38:22I don't know if you're a psychopath, or...
00:38:26if everything I thought I knew was wrong.
00:38:29I don't know what's going on with you.
00:38:31I am falling for you, but these people, they're gonna eat you alive.
00:38:35Well, I like to think I act fast under pressure.
00:38:41Zoe, wait!
00:38:44You better lock that door.
00:38:47Zoe, what are you doing?
00:38:49Good evening, ladies and gentlemen.
00:38:52I'm Zoe Cross. I'm sure you all know my husband, Ashton Cross.
00:38:57Now, I'm aware that many are questioning the authenticity of our marriage,
00:39:03and I'm here to confirm that it's true.
00:39:09Our marriage was a sham.
00:39:13I signed a prenup agreeing to marry Ashton
00:39:16because I thought that it would bring me wealth and fame,
00:39:20but I was wrong.
00:39:23It turned out to be so much more than that.
00:39:27He isn't just this spoiled rich kid, playboy, heartbreaker.
00:39:33Everything people say is just to sell stories.
00:39:38He's actually kinder and stronger and better,
00:39:46and I want him to know that I'm falling for him, too.
00:41:07I can feel you staring at me.
00:41:10I haven't felt like this in a while.
00:41:14I feel like myself.
00:41:18Sometimes, when I look in the mirror, I don't recognize myself.
00:41:24When I see you, I see you.
00:41:31You promise?
00:41:34Cross my heart.
00:41:40I promise.
00:41:52Hey, Chad.
00:41:53Of course.
00:41:57What can I do for you?
00:42:00I know that you are the anonymous source
00:42:03and that you sent the press our marriage contract,
00:42:06and I want to make a deal.
00:42:09Why would I do something like that?
00:42:11It doesn't matter, and I don't care,
00:42:14but for whatever reason you're doing it,
00:42:16you're coming between Ashton and I.
00:42:18Do you mean your scam of a marriage?
00:42:20It was, but it's real now.
00:42:24I just want you and Ashton to repair this relationship
00:42:27so that we can all be happy.
00:42:30What's your angle here?
00:42:31There's no angle.
00:42:33I'm going through my own trauma,
00:42:35and there are a lot of things that I wish I could go back
00:42:38and say differently to my...
00:42:45I know you have a history, and I know that it's difficult,
00:42:50but it's worth making amends.
00:42:53Does he know I leaked this story to the press?
00:42:56No.
00:42:57He's been through enough already.
00:43:06Whatever hurt that you've caused each other
00:43:10can be forgiven.
00:43:12What if the things you've done aren't forgivable?
00:43:17The past doesn't matter.
00:43:19Just what you do now matters.
00:43:23You fell for him.
00:43:25I got to know him.
00:43:28Maybe you should, too.
00:43:36Maybe.
00:43:52I really hope that you and your brother can work things out.
00:44:00I'd like nothing more than to get closer to you, Zoey.
00:44:05Okay.
00:44:15This isn't possible.
00:44:25This is important, Henry.
00:44:27I need to know I can trust you on this.
00:44:29Of course you can, Xander, but why are you...
00:44:32Because, Henry, I need answers.
00:44:35Don't worry.
00:44:37I'll have the test results in 24 hours.
00:44:39Good.
00:44:40Call me when you have it.
00:44:42And remember, I was never here.
00:45:03I know that you were the anonymous source.
00:45:13Hey, I have the test results.
00:45:15It's a perfect match.
00:45:17So they're related.
00:45:19It's more than that, Xander.
00:45:21I said perfect match.
00:45:23The two DNA samples are identical.
00:45:26I feel like I know you.
00:45:30I feel like I know you from somewhere.
00:45:32Maybe another life.
00:45:38They're twins.
00:46:00Good morning, Mrs. Cross.
00:46:02Is it about time?
00:46:04For cleaning?
00:46:06Yes, Mrs. Cross.
00:46:07I come every Monday.
00:46:09I can always come back.
00:46:11No, come in.
00:46:12I'll just go get a coffee.
00:46:18It won't take long, Mrs. Cross.
00:46:30I'm in.
00:46:36This takes time, Xander.
00:46:38I'm a private detective, not a sniffer dog.
00:47:00Checkmate.
00:47:22If you're thinking of having one of those,
00:47:24I won't object.
00:47:26You handled the crisis well.
00:47:29I was sure you'd run away
00:47:31with your tail between your legs.
00:47:33But you stayed.
00:47:35But what for?
00:47:39Now, I know no one gets close to my sons
00:47:42without wanting something.
00:47:44The question is, what do you want?
00:47:48I want you.
00:47:50I want you.
00:47:52I want you.
00:47:54What do you want?
00:48:06Voila.
00:48:11What do you want?
00:48:16You're right, Lauren.
00:48:17I think I did want something from Ashton, but...
00:48:21I don't know that I want it now.
00:48:26I recognize that look on your face.
00:48:31It happened to me with Robert,
00:48:33Xander and Ashton's father.
00:48:36I fell in love with a man I hated.
00:48:40It was an arranged marriage,
00:48:42and I didn't want to be in it.
00:48:45I got to truly know him.
00:48:48And it changed me.
00:48:52Don't stare at me like that, Zoe.
00:48:55You might think I'm a witch whose heart is made of stone,
00:48:58but I still know what love is.
00:49:07You wanted to see me?
00:49:09Take a seat.
00:49:15What's up?
00:49:17I found something, and I think you should see this.
00:49:22She's Audrey's sister.
00:49:24She changed her identity, her face,
00:49:26just to get close to you.
00:49:28Why?
00:49:29Think about it, Ashton.
00:49:30She came into your life out of nowhere,
00:49:32three months after Audrey's death.
00:49:34She lied to you, married you,
00:49:36manipulated you, shared a bed with you.
00:49:39There's only one thing that drives people this far.
00:49:43Revenge.
00:49:45I'm sorry, little brother.
00:49:48I'm sorry, little brother.
00:49:50But it looks like it's time to wake up from this dream.
00:49:57You're just saying that because you want me to help run your precious company.
00:50:01Yes, I was Robert's wife,
00:50:04and his company is very important to me.
00:50:07But I'm also a mother.
00:50:12I can see Ashton cares about you
00:50:15more than the others.
00:50:18He has calmed his playboy antics.
00:50:22I can see he's a better person with you.
00:50:25There was one woman before, but she disappeared.
00:50:28Who knows why?
00:50:30She probably couldn't handle the pressure of being a cross.
00:50:36There was one woman before, but she disappeared.
00:50:39Who knows why?
00:50:41She probably couldn't handle the pressure of being a cross.
00:50:44Love isn't logical, Zoe.
00:50:46And loving Ashton is probably the most illogical thing you could do.
00:50:50But that doesn't make it wrong.
00:50:55Wait.
00:50:57There was another woman?
00:50:59A serious relationship?
00:51:01What happened to her?
00:51:02Who knows, Zoe?
00:51:04He probably got sick of her like all the other girls.
00:51:07You're here now.
00:51:09She's gone forever.
00:51:11And for some reason, he likes keeping you around.
00:51:15So you're my only hope.
00:51:17Your only hope for what?
00:51:19A family legacy, Zoe.
00:51:22Xander can't give me a grandchild, but Ashton can.
00:51:26Ashton is the future of this company and this family.
00:51:30Xander's reign ended in that car accident.
00:51:34Everything is working according to plan.
00:51:37At least for Ashton.
00:51:45Ashton?
00:51:47You actually believe it?
00:51:50That I killed Audrey?
00:51:52I don't want to.
00:51:54But I see it now.
00:51:58The A.C. tattoo.
00:52:00The high-profile lover.
00:52:03The pregnancy.
00:52:05It has to be you.
00:52:07There's no other.
00:52:09I'm sorry.
00:52:11It has to be you.
00:52:13There's no other explanation.
00:52:19Wait.
00:52:21Audrey was pregnant?
00:52:23You didn't know, did you?
00:52:32When you pushed her off the balcony?
00:52:34I never slept with Audrey.
00:52:37She was with someone else.
00:52:39Stop lying to me.
00:52:41You've been lying to me!
00:52:43I wanted to tell you.
00:52:45But how do you tell someone
00:52:47that you completely changed what you looked like to avenge your sister's death?
00:52:51You made me fall in love with you.
00:52:55And I fell in love with the man who murdered my Audrey.
00:53:00I didn't kill her, Zoe.
00:53:02I swear.
00:53:06Cross my heart.
00:53:09I'm sorry.
00:53:27I really wish that it wasn't you.
00:53:33Would you believe me
00:53:35if I said I really did love you?
00:53:39No.
00:53:45Neither would I.
00:54:09I'm sorry.
00:54:39Paternity test results.
00:55:10Xander.
00:55:12Now's not a good time.
00:55:14Now is the perfect time.
00:55:16I know where Zoe is.
00:55:18I'll send you the address, but
00:55:20you better hurry
00:55:22if you want to say goodbye.
00:55:24What are you talking about?
00:55:26Everyone has their tipping point, Ashton.
00:55:28All I need to do
00:55:30is give her one tiny push.
00:55:34Xander.
00:55:36If you hurt her,
00:55:38I'll kill you.
00:55:40You've already done that, Ashton.
00:55:42Two years ago.
00:55:45Xander.
00:55:47Xander.
00:55:55Paternity test results.
00:56:03A family legacy, Zoe.
00:56:05I see.
00:56:07You can be a grandchild when Ashton can.
00:56:10Xander Cross.
00:56:13Alexander Cross.
00:56:15Xander Cross.
00:56:36Um, he can't really dance.
00:56:38What do you mean he can't dance?
00:56:40He loves dancing.
00:56:41He just doesn't, okay?
00:56:46Audrey betrayed me.
00:56:48What are you doing here?
00:56:50And so did Ashton.
00:56:53I guess some curses do run in the family.
00:56:57Get inside.
00:57:16Happy birthday.
00:57:18Oh, Xander.
00:57:20Wow.
00:57:22This is an amazing gift.
00:57:25But I was hoping that maybe
00:57:27I could ask for something else.
00:57:30Anything.
00:57:32Well, I was thinking that maybe
00:57:34it was time that we take our relationship public.
00:57:38So that we don't have to keep
00:57:41this
00:57:43a secret.
00:57:46You're pregnant.
00:57:48Yeah.
00:57:49We're gonna have the baby.
00:57:52I never thought it'd come to this.
00:57:55But you're happy, right?
00:57:57Of course.
00:58:00So happy.
00:58:03I love you, Xander.
00:58:05I love you, Audrey.
00:58:07You're mine.
00:58:09Now and forever.
00:58:11Come on, help me up.
00:58:12Let me put this necklace on my future wife.
00:58:18Turn around.
00:58:33Xander, what are you doing?
00:58:35I never told you.
00:58:37Because I was ashamed.
00:58:39Pack it.
00:58:41You want to fool me into being your crippled rich husband?
00:58:44Xander, please.
00:58:46I have proof.
00:58:47It's your baby.
00:58:49Our baby.
00:59:00Get inside.
00:59:09It was you.
00:59:11You killed Audrey.
00:59:14And you're the one who sent my DNA and my passport to Ashton.
00:59:17All of it was you.
00:59:19How did you know who I was?
00:59:21The day you came and visited me in my office,
00:59:24you hugged me the exact same way she did.
00:59:28The exact same way she did.
00:59:33Sentiments can really fuck things up, huh?
00:59:36So you're going to kill me now, too?
00:59:39No.
00:59:41I have a better plan for you.
00:59:43Zoey!
00:59:44No, no, Ashton, no, you can't come in.
00:59:46Please.
00:59:47Zoey, thank God.
00:59:49Welcome to the grand finale, little brother.
00:59:53I don't know about you, but I'm dying to see how this all turns out.
00:59:58Welcome to the grand finale, little brother.
01:00:02I don't know about you, but I'm dying to see how this all turns out.
01:00:06One more step and she's dead.
01:00:08It's not her fault what happened.
01:00:10It's mine.
01:00:11Don't worry about it.
01:00:13You're going to get yours.
01:00:14I'm going to have my payback.
01:00:16I'm going to take back everything you took from me.
01:00:18My job, my title, my reputation.
01:00:22But in order to do that, I've got to make sure you never get in my way again.
01:00:27But in order to do that, I've got to make sure you never get in my way again.
01:00:31You see two sisters dying in the same apartment?
01:00:34You see two sisters dying in the same apartment?
01:00:36That's going to lead to suspicion.
01:00:38But if I can connect them...
01:00:39Have you lost your mind?
01:00:40Let me fucking finish.
01:00:41Let me fucking finish.
01:00:43If I can connect them to the same men...
01:00:46If I can connect them to the same men...
01:00:49You killed Audrey?
01:00:51You killed Audrey?
01:00:56You killed Audrey?
01:00:58You did.
01:01:00Soon the B.C.U.O. turns out to be a maniac.
01:01:04Brutally killing his mistress and his wife.
01:01:07After he kills her, he turns himself in.
01:01:11Or puts the gun to his own head, I don't care.
01:01:15You choose, little brother.
01:01:17You can't get away with this.
01:01:18Of course I will.
01:01:20All I gotta do is convince the shareholders.
01:01:23You'd be surprised how quickly a bunch of lies can turn into the truth.
01:01:28But enough of that, we don't have all night.
01:01:30Ladies first.
01:01:38Xander, you don't have to do this!
01:01:39Shut the fuck up.
01:01:41Just shut the fuck up.
01:01:43Please.
01:01:44You're too late, little brother.
01:01:46Two years too late.
01:01:48You chose this.
01:01:50You could have lived your life with someone who truly loved you, but instead you murdered her.
01:01:54She never loved me.
01:01:55She had an A.C. tattoo!
01:01:57She loved you so much that she marked herself as yours!
01:01:59She betrayed me with another man!
01:02:02Did you not see the paternity test?
01:02:07It's all right here.
01:02:12If you kill me now, the police will come and they'll find me.
01:02:16And they'll link me to Audrey and they'll know that you murdered her while she was pregnant with your baby.
01:02:21You're fucking lying.
01:02:23You should have trusted Audrey.
01:02:26But you were so blinded by your jealousy and your anger that you killed someone who truly loved you.
01:02:41Action!
01:02:47You're a liar, Zoe Campbell.
01:02:49And you're dead.
01:02:54Audrey Hale.
01:02:56Mother.
01:02:5899.9% match with...
01:03:04Alexander Cross.
01:03:06Father.
01:03:08Oh, Jesus.
01:03:10What have I done?
01:03:12Jesus.
01:03:14What have I done?
01:03:16What have I done?
01:03:19I'm so sorry, Audrey.
01:03:21So that we don't have to keep this a secret.
01:03:27You're pregnant.
01:03:29Yeah.
01:03:30We're gonna have the baby.
01:03:33I'm so sorry.
01:03:36No, no, no!
01:03:42I'm so sorry.
01:04:06Ready?
01:04:08Ready as I'll ever be.
01:04:13Oh, my gosh.
01:04:15Okay, okay, okay.
01:04:16One.
01:04:17Two.
01:04:18Three.
01:04:21We're having a girl.
01:04:22It's our girl.
01:04:24We're having a baby girl.
01:04:28I know the perfect name.
01:04:30Mhm.
01:04:31Audrey.
01:04:35I know the perfect name.
01:04:37Mhm.
01:04:38Audrey.
01:04:41That's perfect.
01:04:45You wanna swing?
01:04:48Don't let me fall, okay?
01:04:50Cross my heart.
01:04:52Ready?
01:04:53No.
01:04:54Okay.
01:04:55Here we go.
01:05:00How does it feel?
01:05:02Like I'm flying.
