00:00:00Can you just get to the point? I'm missing an important meeting.
00:00:13I understand, but I can't commence the reading of your father's will without your brother
00:00:21here.
00:00:22What the actual fuck? It's noon and you're drunk already.
00:00:26Frankie, Jack Lee, let's get this out of here, shall we?
00:00:36Your father's last will and testament, read before his two sons as stipulated.
00:00:41In the event of my death, all wealth belonging to me, including cash, properties, shares
00:00:47and stocks, will only be inherited by one of my sons.
00:00:52Under the condition that he marries a woman of humble background within six months.
00:00:57That's bullshit. We won't know it.
00:01:00This is your father's updated will. He was of sound mind when it was revised.
00:01:04Revised? When?
00:01:07A few weeks before his death. I assure you, these are his true wishes.
00:01:11If you'll please get seated, son.
00:01:13Fuck you, fucking son.
00:01:15Take your fucking seat, Jack.
00:01:17It seems there's more we need to hear.
00:01:21That woman has already been chosen by me. Evangeline Harris.
00:01:25She's the daughter of Anna Harris, the woman who nursed and cared for me when I was ill.
00:01:29By all accounts, she's a good, decent woman.
00:01:32I realize that this stipulation might seem unusual, but to my disappointment, you have
00:01:36both grown overly arrogant and dismissive of those you consider to be inferior to you
00:01:40in both social standing and in wealth.
00:01:42My hope is that it will teach you to sustain a healthy relationship regardless of class
00:01:47I pray that everything gets resolved with fairness, love, and kindness.
00:01:58This makes no sense at all.
00:02:01Marrying a stranger?
00:02:03How do we even get in touch with this woman? Evangeline...
00:02:06Evangeline Harris. Your father has included contact details for both her and her mother,
00:02:11so getting in touch with her won't be an issue.
00:02:14You seem a little bit composed, brother.
00:02:16Something you'd like to tell me?
00:02:18I beg your pardon?
00:02:19You seem a little calm the whole way.
00:02:21A little too well.
00:02:23It's almost like as if you already knew what was happening.
00:02:26Please tell me that's a joke.
00:02:28I'm concerned about how to get up to the bottom of this, and you're concerned that I'm just not falling apart.
00:02:33You were here before me. God knows for how long.
00:02:37Yeah, because I understand punctuality.
00:02:41Unlike you, you chose to be late, as usual.
00:02:45So don't forget that you're daddy's little favorite, hey?
00:02:48Who knows what else he gave you little hints about the will?
00:02:52For fuck's sake, Jack, don't start this shit now.
00:02:55We need to be working together, not taking stabs at each other.
00:03:01Okay, what do you say, dearest brother?
00:03:04But we all know the truth, and that always will come out in the end.
00:03:08Come on, Jack. Don't be such a twat.
00:03:11Dad would want us to work as a team, no matter what.
00:03:15Good thing he's not here anymore, huh?
00:03:37Hey.
00:04:01Hey.
00:04:02This is the hundredth voicemail I've left you.
00:04:05Call me when you get this one.
00:04:12Tony boy, how you been looking for me?
00:04:15Speak of the devil. Where the fuck have you been?
00:04:19I've been trying to contact you for days.
00:04:21Been here, there, you know.
00:04:24No, I don't know.
00:04:26And can you stop playing with that? You always make a mess of things.
00:04:29And you're always trying to control things.
00:04:31Maybe you should understand how things really work.
00:04:34What are you talking about?
00:04:36Are you drunk right now? Because you're not making much sense.
00:04:39Nope. Servers are none.
00:04:41Enough of the cryptic talk.
00:04:43And why are you so late to work if you're not on one of your vendors?
00:04:46John, John, you're always focusing on the things that aren't important.
00:04:50Why don't you just live a little?
00:04:52The things that aren't important.
00:04:54Did you realize that this company didn't die along with Dad?
00:04:57We actually have to keep it alive.
00:04:59Well, like we have you, then.
00:05:01Hey. Actually, best be on it. I'm gonna be going.
00:05:04Get to this chat another time.
00:05:06Where the fuck are you off to now?
00:05:16You pulled a quick one on me, didn't you?
00:05:19To think that I was worried about you,
00:05:21only to find out you had been in contact with Evangeline Harris.
00:05:24Damn, bro, did you run you?
00:05:27Hey, easy, tiger.
00:05:30What can I say? I work better alone.
00:05:33Besides, this situation is best man wins.
00:05:36I don't see the both of us getting married to her.
00:05:38Welcome.
00:05:41Jack, I see you're here early this time.
00:05:44It's gonna be a bit worth the time.
00:05:46Heads up to my brother, didn't ya?
00:05:49Actually, I was obligated to share this information with both of you at the same time.
00:05:53Thank you for informing me, Mr. Frank.
00:05:55God knows if it were up to Jack, I'd still be up at the office.
00:05:58It should be worth the time.
00:06:00Shut up, jackass.
00:06:07Ms. Harris won't be coming to the meeting.
00:06:10And we all know what that means.
00:06:12Without her, nothing can move forward.
00:06:15Damn it.
00:06:28I'm sorry.
00:06:45Coming.
00:06:52Mum, what are you doing here?
00:06:55I had no idea you were stopping by.
00:06:57You're a mess. How many times have I told you?
00:06:59Your appearance maxes all the time.
00:07:07I'm doing housework, Mum.
00:07:09Am I supposed to have a full face of make-up on?
00:07:11Oh, well, I really don't know why you have to live in such a little shabby place.
00:07:15Surely you can find somewhere better.
00:07:18Your standards are so high.
00:07:20It's not like I can afford a mansion on the same salary.
00:07:23And besides, I like it here. It's nice and it's cosy.
00:07:26Well, that's why life presents you with opportunities.
00:07:30And you've got to grab them when they're presented to you.
00:07:33I guess.
00:07:34I believe you were invited to a meeting by the Blackthorne's lawyers.
00:07:40Yeah. How did you know about that?
00:07:42Oh, never mind. Why didn't you go?
00:07:44Because it seemed shady.
00:07:46I've never spoken to that man before.
00:07:49And I only know the name Blackthorne because you've worked for the late Mr. Blackthorne.
00:07:53What on earth do they want with me?
00:07:55And you just dodged my question.
00:07:57How do you know about that meeting?
00:07:59Because I set it up.
00:08:08What do you mean you set it up?
00:08:10What business do you still have with our family after your patient died?
00:08:13What's going on, Mum?
00:08:14Calm down, child. Let me explain.
00:08:17You see, when Mr. Blackthorne neared his end,
00:08:21he kind of started opening up to me and talking about his life,
00:08:25about his late wife, his two sons Jack and John, fraternal twins.
00:08:30And you see, he even asked about my life.
00:08:33That's interesting, but that doesn't quite answer anything.
00:08:36But you see, when we got talking, we realized that we could possibly help each other.
00:08:40You see, he realized that his two sons had a bit of a, let's call it a classist issue.
00:08:47You mean they're pretentious rich boy freaks?
00:08:49That's not surprising, but what does that have to do with anything?
00:08:51Well, you see, he hoped for them to have a little bit more empathy
00:08:55and be a little bit less pretentious.
00:08:57And I said, my daughter actually has the opposite challenge.
00:09:01She's poor and humble and needed to step up socially.
00:09:04What? You told him that about me?
00:09:08Parents talk about their kids.
00:09:10You see, I told him that you were fussy about, you know, the men you were dating,
00:09:14lacking in a bit of ambition.
00:09:16And, you know, Mr. Blackthorn was really alone at that time
00:09:19and his two boys were always just too busy to visit him.
00:09:22He might have been a little muddled at that point,
00:09:25but anyway, we still came to an agreement.
00:09:27What sort of agreement then?
00:09:29Well, he added in his will that one of his sons needed to marry you in order to inherit his wealth.
00:09:37You can't be serious.
00:09:39You're joking, right?
00:09:41No, wait. Let me finish. I am serious.
00:09:46You mean you agreed to sell me like a cheap pimp?
00:10:04You told that old man that I was a sad loser,
00:10:08that I would jump at the chance to marry one of his sons.
00:10:11So what if I don't have a man in my life with many friends?
00:10:14That's my choice. Mine.
00:10:16Now, I don't give a damn what you think.
00:10:19You look me in the eye and you tell me that you are fulfilled with everything that you have
00:10:24and everything you don't have,
00:10:26and that you never had a thought that your life would be much easier if you had more,
00:10:32if you had more money, more status, and more opportunities.
00:10:36Yeah, I thought as much.
00:10:39I only ever wanted what was good for you.
00:10:44All the things that I never had in my life growing up.
00:10:48The things I never achieved.
00:10:50So it really hurts me when you imply that I want to pimp you out.
00:11:02What do the sons think about this crazy scheme?
00:11:04Well, you would have known that if you actually went to the meeting that you refused to go to.
00:11:10I'm sorry, but it's to marry a total stranger?
00:11:14A very wealthy stranger, really.
00:11:17Let's see it as something like speed matchmaking.
00:11:21It happens everywhere.
00:11:23They do it on TV reality shows, social media, dating apps.
00:11:27No one's forcing you to do anything that you don't want to do.
00:11:30But let's face it, you won't lose anything by trying at least.
00:11:33What happens if I don't like the guy and I don't want to go through with the marriage?
00:11:37Well then the Blackthorn sons will just have to sort it out themselves and work through it.
00:11:41At that point, at least they've learned just a fraction of the humility that their dad wanted for them.
00:11:50Maybe I'll meet with the sons and see what it's like, but I can't guarantee anything further than that.
00:11:57Well, my secret is safe.
00:12:00Good girl.
00:12:12John Blackthorn?
00:12:14Yes.
00:12:16You must be Miss Harris.
00:12:18Evangeline is fine. Or Eva, if you like.
00:12:21Eva does, though. I'm John Blackthorn.
00:12:25I hope it's not too forward of me to say this, but you look exceptionally beautiful.
00:12:32You literally just took my breath away right now. You're magnificent.
00:12:38I'm sorry about posting the meeting at your lawyer's.
00:12:41It just came from out of the blue.
00:12:43I had no idea why my mother's late employer's lawyer would want to meet with me so urgently.
00:12:47It just happened so fast and I didn't really have much time to think about it.
00:12:51I just said yes.
00:12:53So you're aware of the part of my father's will that relates to you?
00:12:58I had no idea. It's quite strange.
00:13:03It's been a bit overwhelming.
00:13:05Even for me.
00:13:07For us.
00:13:11I'm sorry.
00:13:13For you.
00:13:15For us.
00:13:18Isn't this supposed to be two of you? You're a Chinese, but I'm supposed to meet with your brother as well?
00:13:24You must of all important Miss Harris.
00:13:27Speak of the devil.
00:13:44Tell me something.
00:13:46How much are you really going to cost me?
00:13:50You must be Jack Blackthorn.
00:13:53I guess you guys are playing good cop, bad cop.
00:13:56He came earlier to butter me up with outrageous compliments.
00:13:59And then you swooped in for the attack.
00:14:01What are you insinuating with that?
00:14:04Am I interrupting something?
00:14:06Don't tell me.
00:14:09Am I interrupting something?
00:14:11Don't tell me you're falling for his boyhood routine.
00:14:15Clearly this is an exchange.
00:14:17You for our father's wealth.
00:14:19Don't play dumb.
00:14:21What the fuck is wrong with you?
00:14:23Don't talk to her like that. It's disgusting.
00:14:25Oh come on.
00:14:27You're coming on so strong Johnny boy.
00:14:29Don't ignore innocent her.
00:14:31She's so beautiful.
00:14:33Is that what you think a woman is?
00:14:35That we're only valuable for the way we look?
00:14:38No wonder your father loved you out of his wealth.
00:14:40You're not only classist but you're sexist as well.
00:14:42Watch your fucking mouth.
00:14:44You don't know anything about her.
00:14:46Or me.
00:14:48Do you think I understand you?
00:14:50The fact that you're even considering this professes a lot about you.
00:14:52You fucking bitch.
00:14:54How much does this cost?
00:14:56Use it to mop up your toxicity, rich boy.
00:14:58You both go to hell if you're up for it.
00:15:08Evangeline wait.
00:15:10Hold on a second.
00:15:14Nice one Jack.
00:15:16Nice one.
00:15:18She's the spitfire that one.
00:15:20Those curves.
00:15:22You never know she'll be so hot.
00:15:24What the fuck is wrong with you?
00:15:26You made her change her mind.
00:15:28How hard is it to be polite god damn it?
00:15:30It's not my fault Miss Farquhar can't take a joke.
00:15:32Besides.
00:15:34She'll be back eventually.
00:15:37Are you sure about that?
00:15:39I don't think you saw how angry she was.
00:15:43Don't worry John boy.
00:15:45I know women and I saw the fire in her today.
00:15:47And she's burning for me.
00:15:49I think you're confusing her emotions.
00:15:51Nah.
00:15:53One way or another I'll be holding that spark in my hands.
00:15:57Don't tell me now you're interested in her.
00:15:59You were talking down to her that entire time.
00:16:01You call it talking down.
00:16:03I call it flirting.
00:16:05Besides.
00:16:07Who can see your sense in less than 20 minutes?
00:16:09I have no idea what you're talking about.
00:16:13There's no denying it.
00:16:15We could clearly see your heart thumping out of her shirt.
00:16:17And I'm pretty sure I could make her heart thump a little bit more.
00:16:21Are you sure about that?
00:16:23Ha.
00:16:29I guess we'll find out.
00:16:35Yes.
00:17:01I can hear your phone ringing Evangeline.
00:17:03Open the door.
00:17:05I'm coming.
00:17:11Ignoring your mother.
00:17:13That's such childish behaviour.
00:17:17Why mum? I didn't know it was you.
00:17:19Carbs really.
00:17:21You need to watch your figure.
00:17:23But anyway we'll talk about that later.
00:17:25I'm here for a different reason.
00:17:27What reason?
00:17:29Must I spell it out for you?
00:17:31I'm here to speak to you about your meeting with the Blackthorns.
00:17:33I told you what happened.
00:17:35Please don't tell me you came all this way
00:17:37just to talk about it again.
00:17:39That I teach you nothing about perseverance.
00:17:41Yet you have a chance
00:17:43to change your life
00:17:45and even find love along the way.
00:17:47And you want to throw it away
00:17:49just because of one small little comment.
00:17:51Seriously, is that what you mean?
00:17:53Eva, I'm not asking you to reach out
00:17:55or even apologise to them.
00:17:57I'm asking you just to give them another try.
00:17:59I made a promise to Mr Blackthorn
00:18:01and I want to keep that.
00:18:03You speak like it's an obligation
00:18:05but I know you didn't sign anything.
00:18:07No.
00:18:11Don't.
00:18:17John or Jack.
00:18:29John or Jack.
00:18:47You've got to be kidding me.
00:18:49John Blackthorn.
00:18:51What are you doing here?
00:18:53Are you stalking me?
00:18:55How did you know I work at this hotel?
00:18:57I'm sorry.
00:18:59I didn't mean to startle you.
00:19:01Well, that's exactly what you've done.
00:19:03You should never sneak up on a woman like that.
00:19:05My bad.
00:19:07I just wanted to talk to you
00:19:09and tell you how sorry I am about the other day.
00:19:11Oh yeah.
00:19:13Sorry about what?
00:19:15For being a two-faced Mr Nice Guy?
00:19:17Or for being dumb
00:19:19when your brother insulted me?
00:19:21Eva, I...
00:19:23That's Evangeline to you.
00:19:25Evangeline.
00:19:27I swear to you
00:19:29I was never putting on an act at any time.
00:19:31I meant every word I said
00:19:33about how beautiful you are.
00:19:35I'm sorry I didn't defend you sooner.
00:19:39My brother can be
00:19:41difficult sometimes.
00:19:43I hope you can give me a chance
00:19:45to make it up to you.
00:19:47Well, that sounded better
00:19:49this time around.
00:19:51If you know that I was...
00:19:53Eva!
00:20:03That was close.
00:20:05I really thought he was about to knock me over.
00:20:07If you hadn't grabbed me, I'd be lying on the road by now.
00:20:09You sure you're okay? You're not hurt anywhere?
00:20:11It's fine. You just missed me.
00:20:13You saved me. You're my hero.
00:20:15No, no.
00:20:17It's nothing like that.
00:20:19I just happened to be looking at the road at the right time.
00:20:23You know, I've been trying to get
00:20:25in contact with you for the past few days.
00:20:27You're the one
00:20:29who's been blowing up my phone.
00:20:31How did you get my number?
00:20:33Well, I...
00:20:35When you weren't answering and I needed to get a hold
00:20:37of you, I called Mr. Frank
00:20:39who then called...
00:20:41My mother. She loves to meddle.
00:20:43Can I give you a ride home?
00:20:45Yeah, I'd really
00:20:47appreciate that.
00:20:53Okay.
00:21:13Again, I'm sorry about
00:21:15what happened and
00:21:17how something that started so nicely
00:21:19ended up so messy.
00:21:21And I'm sorry that you almost got hit
00:21:23because of me.
00:21:25It's okay. I'm over it now.
00:21:27And that guy wasn't looking where he was going.
00:21:29Yeah, but
00:21:31I could've made sure you weren't.
00:21:33Sorry.
00:21:37No, it's okay.
00:21:45This is me, so...
00:21:47Would you like
00:21:49to come in for a drink?
00:21:51Yeah, that'd be great.
00:21:57This buckle's kind of stuck.
00:21:59Here, here.
00:22:01You just need to
00:22:03press it like this.
00:22:11Goddammit, it's work.
00:22:13I need to take this.
00:22:15Thanks for the ride.
00:22:23I will never forget
00:22:25how scared you were
00:22:27when you thought a dead frog
00:22:29would come back to life and haunt you.
00:22:31I swear it looked me straight in the eye
00:22:33before it took its last breath,
00:22:35probably memorising my face so it could have
00:22:37its afterlife vengeance attack.
00:22:39Wasn't it for a school project?
00:22:41You were so scared that you were shivering
00:22:43all night, the lights aren't even up till midnight.
00:22:45It's funny now, but
00:22:47back then, it was a very
00:22:49different matter, I can assure you.
00:22:51You know what?
00:22:53Mum was insidious about the whole thing.
00:22:55No, she wasn't.
00:22:57She believed me.
00:22:59Well, come on, I think she just made you not feel terrible.
00:23:03That's probably true.
00:23:05But in my ten-year-old brain,
00:23:07Mum believed in the ghosts of vindictive frogs.
00:23:09Yeah,
00:23:11she was something else.
00:23:13I really do miss her.
00:23:15Yeah,
00:23:17me too.
00:23:19And Dad too, of course.
00:23:23I always look at this photo
00:23:25of the four of us, together.
00:23:31We used to have dinner as a weekly tradition.
00:23:33Why don't we do that anymore?
00:23:35I don't know.
00:23:37I don't know.
00:23:39I think things got sad
00:23:41after Mum died and
00:23:43we became busy, Dad died,
00:23:45and I think we just
00:23:47lost the feeling of what it's like to be a family again.
00:23:51Well, why don't we change that?
00:23:57I've lost my appetite.
00:23:59I'll leave you to it, Johnny boy.
00:24:07Bye.
00:24:19Ah, Johnny boy, welcome.
00:24:21Take a seat.
00:24:23Look, I got the chef to make your favourite meal.
00:24:25Wow.
00:24:27It all looks so good.
00:24:29And you're in a very good mood tonight.
00:24:33You'd have thought after the way you stormed out last night
00:24:35Don't worry about that.
00:24:37I've got that under control as usual.
00:24:39Well, even better now.
00:24:41Well, cheers to the night.
00:24:43Cheers.
00:24:45Hope you've worked up a big appetite.
00:24:47It's going to become a three-course meal.
00:24:49I'm as hungry as I've ever been.
00:24:51Mmm, it all looks delicious.
00:24:53So,
00:24:57I noticed Miss Harris called you yesterday.
00:24:59I didn't realise you guys were
00:25:01coming so close.
00:25:03It's nothing serious.
00:25:05I reached out to apologise to her
00:25:07and we've been friendly ever since.
00:25:09So you're making progress, right?
00:25:13Sneaking slowly to her heart.
00:25:15One phone call at a time.
00:25:17What's next?
00:25:19Sex on the beach?
00:25:23Jack, please.
00:25:25Don't start that now.
00:25:27Don't ruin a good dinner.
00:25:29Mmm.
00:25:31I don't know.
00:25:33Oh.
00:25:35Hmm.
00:25:37What is it?
00:25:39Guess who's going to have
00:25:41Eva work under him?
00:26:01Hello.
00:26:05You asked to see me?
00:26:07Yes, I did.
00:26:09Have a seat.
00:26:11I don't understand. What are you doing here?
00:26:13Well, I bought the hotel
00:26:15of the old owners. It's simple as that.
00:26:17Are you shocked to see me since the first time we met?
00:26:19Have you spoken about me at least?
00:26:21Well, I know you and my brother
00:26:23have been speaking and what do you think?
00:26:25I'm just going to vanish into thin air?
00:26:27No, I didn't ask about you.
00:26:29You went out of prick that day.
00:26:31Watch your tone, young lady.
00:26:33You don't want to be getting fired
00:26:35speaking to the boss now, would you?
00:26:37Of course not.
00:26:39You don't have to worry.
00:26:41It's not like I'm going to ask you to blow me or anything.
00:26:43Well, not yet.
00:26:45I think HR would hate to hear about that.
00:26:47I don't give a shit about HR.
00:26:49I own HR, which means I own you.
00:26:53Well, that'll be all, Miss Harris.
00:26:55You can get back to work.
00:26:57But my brother doesn't need to know about this.
00:26:59Nice.
00:27:26Just the man I was looking for.
00:27:29When is it starting?
00:27:31Take a look at this.
00:27:33Blackthorn Corporation isn't doing as badly as we feared.
00:27:35It's not as good as when Dad was here,
00:27:37but still a lot of kicking.
00:27:43I've got some news,
00:27:45but I'm not sure if you're going to like it.
00:27:47I think it can wait.
00:27:49Can we take a look at this first?
00:27:51You can tell me after.
00:27:53No, it can't wait.
00:27:55Okay.
00:27:57What is it?
00:27:59I'm afraid I have to relinquish some of my responsibilities at Blackthorn Corporation.
00:28:01What?
00:28:03Why?
00:28:05I bought a hotel.
00:28:07You bought a hotel?
00:28:09The Bellevue Hotel. I've just signed the papers.
00:28:11Why the fuck would you do that?
00:28:13You're barely even here.
00:28:15Now you've gone and bought a hotel?
00:28:17It's money from my own fund.
00:28:19You don't have to worry.
00:28:21I just thought I'd let you know because I won't be around much longer.
00:28:23All sorts of things settle down.
00:28:25It's the hotel management. I'd best be off.
00:28:37This is quite a surprise.
00:28:39I mean, it's a good surprise.
00:28:41Please come in.
00:28:47So, this is your place?
00:28:51Yeah.
00:28:53Wow, the other half-lips.
00:28:55I didn't mean...
00:28:59Isn't this what your father wanted for you?
00:29:01To mingle with the lower class?
00:29:03I'm just guessing with you.
00:29:07Okay.
00:29:09These are for you.
00:29:13What's that one?
00:29:15My favourite thing.
00:29:17How did you know?
00:29:19I made a good guess.
00:29:23Okay.
00:29:31Somehow, I don't believe it was a random guess.
00:29:35Come on, tell me the truth.
00:29:39Okay, fine.
00:29:41You told me you really liked chrysanthemums
00:29:43since you were little
00:29:45and your grandpa used to grow them in his garden.
00:29:49Yeah, I do like them.
00:29:51They're beautiful and unique.
00:29:57I'm glad you love them.
00:29:59I almost got you wild orchids.
00:30:01I mean, I do like those too.
00:30:05I would have cooked dinner,
00:30:07but I do
00:30:09love chocolate chip ice cream.
00:30:13My favourite flavour.
00:30:15What's yours?
00:30:17Boring old vanilla, I'm afraid.
00:30:19Vanilla isn't always
00:30:21boring.
00:30:23It's um...
00:30:25It's nice and...
00:30:29Plain.
00:30:31I'm sorry.
00:30:33I was trying to think of another adjective.
00:30:39It's still nice.
00:30:45You're staring. Do I have something on my face?
00:30:49No.
00:30:51You're perfect.
00:30:53You're so beautiful, Evangeline.
00:30:59You're quite handsome.
00:31:03May I kiss you?
00:31:05No.
00:31:19Sorry, I don't know what came over me.
00:31:21It's alright, we're just caught up in the moment.
00:31:25Right, that's all.
00:31:27Did you know Jack
00:31:29was going to buy the hotel where I work?
00:31:31Is this some kind of weird game
00:31:33where you guys are playing of inheritance?
00:31:35No.
00:31:37I had no idea he was going to do that.
00:31:39My brother talks cryptically
00:31:41and he can be hard to decode sometimes.
00:31:43He didn't mention anything
00:31:45until a few minutes before you called.
00:31:47How come he can afford to buy a whole freaking hotel?
00:31:49Aren't you guys supposed to be
00:31:51hanging on to your father's properties?
00:31:53Yes,
00:31:55we are.
00:31:57But his purchase didn't exactly
00:31:59make a dent in our savings.
00:32:01We both have healthy trust funds.
00:32:03Jack just took some money out of his
00:32:05to buy the hotel.
00:32:07Isn't it just fantastic rich boys can do that?
00:32:11So what do I do?
00:32:13I like my job and I need it,
00:32:15but Jack told me to watch my back.
00:32:17I wasn't supposed to tell you that.
00:32:19I think he was just saying that
00:32:21to freak you out.
00:32:23He wouldn't have told me about the hotel
00:32:25if he didn't want me to know.
00:32:27I can't believe my new boss is trying to marry me
00:32:29for a million dollars.
00:32:31More than
00:32:33a couple billion, actually.
00:32:35Wow, I feel even more special.
00:32:39I should be going.
00:32:41Let me know if anything.
00:32:51I know you'll probably want to leave,
00:32:53but would you like some pizza?
00:32:55I don't want to intrude.
00:32:57I'm just inviting you to join me.
00:32:59Just two friends eating pizza
00:33:01and chatting about life.
00:33:03Is that what we are?
00:33:05Friends?
00:33:07I think so. We're close enough, at least.
00:33:09Even though I kissed you?
00:33:11Yes, even though you kissed me.
00:33:13Fine.
00:33:15This is so crazy.
00:33:17I know.
00:33:19I can't remember the last time
00:33:21I've just hung out like this.
00:33:23You're welcome.
00:33:31I swear to God.
00:33:37I'm so sorry.
00:33:39I'm so sorry.
00:33:41I'm so sorry.
00:33:43I swear to God.
00:33:47What? What was that?
00:33:49I noticed the look on your face.
00:33:51It's nothing serious.
00:33:53Just work.
00:33:55I don't have to deal with it right now.
00:33:59I'll be right then.
00:34:03I just...
00:34:07I'm still thinking about the fact that,
00:34:09you know, Jack
00:34:11is now my boss.
00:34:15Will you bring it up with him?
00:34:19No.
00:34:21Not yet, at least.
00:34:23I think it's best if he thinks he has the upper hand for now.
00:34:29What happens next?
00:34:31I don't know, Eva.
00:34:33But I promise you,
00:34:35he'll do nothing stupid.
00:34:37You have my word.
00:34:41Okay.
00:35:01Hello, my beautiful Eva.
00:35:03Work is hectic this morning.
00:35:05I need a meeting until later.
00:35:07How does dinner sound tonight?
00:35:09I can't wait.
00:35:11Thinking about it.
00:35:13Have a great day.
00:35:15Eva?
00:35:17Are you on your phone right now?
00:35:19This is not your personal space.
00:35:21Must I remind you that you're at work?
00:35:23And you must be focusing on that.
00:35:25My apologies, sir. I was just checking my calendar.
00:35:27Your calendar?
00:35:29How timely.
00:35:31I promise I'm up to date on my morning tasks.
00:35:33And I'm just currently
00:35:35grading the candidates for the sous-chef role.
00:35:37I promise I haven't been slacking off.
00:35:39Well, I'll be the judge of that.
00:35:41Because I'll be supervising all interviews from now on.
00:35:43Alright, of course.
00:35:45Of course.
00:35:47Of course, Mr. Blackwell.
00:35:49Sorry.
00:35:51You're in my office now, Ms. Harris.
00:35:53There's something I need to show you, and it's urgent.
00:36:03Please shut the door behind you.
00:36:07Is there something wrong?
00:36:09As a matter of fact, there is.
00:36:15What's this?
00:36:17Go on and open it.
00:36:19It's a little present from me to you.
00:36:21I'm sure you'll find the contents quite interesting.
00:36:27What's this?
00:36:29When was this taken?
00:36:31These are pictures of my brother
00:36:33with his little flea market.
00:36:35These are pictures of my brother
00:36:37with his little fling at a fancy restaurant.
00:36:39This isn't real.
00:36:41This is AI docket or something.
00:36:43I knew you'd say something like that,
00:36:45so I have even stronger proof.
00:36:47Yes, see, my friends of the restaurant,
00:36:49I am quite close with the son,
00:36:51and he could easily get the live feed,
00:36:53and now I owe him.
00:36:55One way or another,
00:36:57this is fake, and I believe him.
00:36:59Oh, you have magically fallen in love with him,
00:37:01haven't you?
00:37:03I'm fucking him.
00:37:05Oh, wow.
00:37:07I didn't see this one come in.
00:37:09Wow, Johnny Boy is working so quickly.
00:37:11Good on him.
00:37:13Since you have, you know,
00:37:15benefited down for him,
00:37:17why don't you give him a call
00:37:19and ask for the camera footage yourself?
00:37:29There's only one way to find out now, isn't there?
00:37:31Call him.
00:37:51Hello, it's me.
00:37:55How's it going?
00:38:01You're in a meeting right now, is that correct?
00:38:05Uh-huh.
00:38:11Oh, Eva, don't be so sad.
00:38:15These women don't last long,
00:38:17and I'm sure he's going to call and say
00:38:19it's just a business meeting,
00:38:21but anyone with eyes and ears and a head
00:38:23wouldn't know that's nothing like that.
00:38:27Why are you doing this?
00:38:29Oh, I want to make sure
00:38:31that you know what kind of man my brother really is.
00:38:33Then let me guess.
00:38:35You're the upstanding brother
00:38:37who's doing his betterment for the world,
00:38:39is that what this is?
00:38:43You can't pretend,
00:38:45even for a second, you haven't done this
00:38:47for your own nefarious purposes.
00:38:49No matter how selfless you want to appear,
00:38:51you're no better than your brother.
00:38:53In fact,
00:38:55I see more similarities than differences
00:38:57between you two now.
00:38:59Watch your tone, young lady.
00:39:01Have you forgotten I'm still your boss?
00:39:03You don't want to get fired
00:39:05now for losing your temper for some man, do you?
00:39:13That's okay.
00:39:15You go back to the office now.
00:39:17Don't worry about the interviews.
00:39:19I'll take care of that.
00:39:21No, let me handle the interviews.
00:39:23I don't need a day off.
00:39:25I don't want to hear any reports
00:39:27of my junior manager bursting into tears
00:39:29while screening new staff.
00:39:31That would be highly embarrassing.
00:39:33I'll make sure everything goes well.
00:39:41Hey, you.
00:39:45How was your meeting?
00:39:47You know, the one that took
00:39:49hours and hours of your time?
00:39:51It must have been really important.
00:39:55No, I'm afraid I won't be able
00:39:57to make it to dinner tonight.
00:39:59I'm not feeling too good,
00:40:01so we'll have to make a rain check
00:40:03until further notice.
00:40:17Is that one of your children?
00:40:19No, it's you.
00:40:21There you are.
00:40:23I'm sorry.
00:40:25I've been knocking for ages.
00:40:27Your TV was so loud.
00:40:29I brought you ice cream.
00:40:31That's not necessary. I'm doing okay.
00:40:33Are you sure, Eva?
00:40:35You don't look so good.
00:40:37Have you been to the doctor?
00:40:39Is everything okay with you, John?
00:40:41You sound pissed off with me.
00:40:43What's wrong?
00:40:45You're acting strange,
00:40:47and you haven't even let me come in.
00:40:49I don't think this is a conversation
00:40:51Strange?
00:40:53Or am I just not all over you like the other night?
00:40:55I guess you want a repeat.
00:40:57Too bad.
00:40:59It's not gonna happen.
00:41:01What the fuck is that supposed to mean?
00:41:03Are you gonna keep spitting cryptic phrases like that,
00:41:05or are you gonna let me come in
00:41:07so we can have a civilized conversation?
00:41:09The ice cream's melting.
00:41:11I don't give a shit about the melting ice cream.
00:41:13I hope it ruins your expensive shoes.
00:41:15The last time we spoke,
00:41:17you were cheerful.
00:41:19You sound pissed in your cereal.
00:41:21If I said or did something wrong,
00:41:23just let me know, okay?
00:41:25Fuck off. That's what I want to tell you.
00:41:33Where is this coming from?
00:41:35You didn't give me a single clue that anything was wrong,
00:41:37and now you're blowing up in my face.
00:41:39You know, I ordered Chinese food,
00:41:41but ice cream will do.
00:41:43Are you even listening to me?
00:41:45You're acting like I'm not even talking to you.
00:41:47You came to check up on me,
00:41:49and you've done that.
00:41:51You brought me my ice cream.
00:41:53You can go on your merry way.
00:41:55Don't you dare touch me.
00:41:57What the hell, Evangeline?
00:41:59You're being childish and lashing out
00:42:01for no good reason.
00:42:03If you didn't want to see me,
00:42:05you could have given me a single phone call.
00:42:07You didn't have to fake illness
00:42:09just to get out of seeing me.
00:42:11Yeah, whatever.
00:42:13You can see yourself out.
00:42:15Eva, wait!
00:42:25But of course I'll pay you back.
00:42:27Disgusting you say such a thing.
00:42:29Well, you know how things go.
00:42:31One good turn turns to another.
00:42:33Anyway, I've got to go.
00:42:35I'll call you back later. Bye.
00:42:41Hey, brother.
00:42:43What are you doing here?
00:42:45Is it a crime to come check up on family?
00:42:47What are you really doing here, John?
00:42:49I doubt family concerns brought you here.
00:42:51Why don't you come and see Eva?
00:42:53I know you know she works here,
00:42:55and she does look gorgeous
00:42:57in that tight body.
00:42:59You keep her name out of your mouth.
00:43:01So I am right.
00:43:03You did come all this way just to see your little girlfriend.
00:43:05Don't tell me you've had
00:43:07a little rocky patch now, have you?
00:43:09How do you know about that?
00:43:11Maybe she told me.
00:43:13Why do I get the feeling that you had
00:43:15something to do with it?
00:43:17Well, why don't you ask yourself?
00:43:19I'm sure she'll be in here any second.
00:43:21Funnily enough, why don't you count down with me
00:43:23in five, four, three...
00:43:25These are the reports you asked for.
00:43:35These are the reports you asked for.
00:43:37Ah, please come in. Right on time.
00:43:39I've just finished speaking with IT.
00:43:41They've made the changes you've requested already,
00:43:43and I was able to export
00:43:45the new data into the system.
00:43:47Perfect. Look, why don't you come a little bit closer?
00:43:49You seem a bit uncomfortable over there.
00:43:57You're really going to act like you can't see me right now?
00:43:59Eva, that'll be all now.
00:44:01We do need a cross-check to make sure
00:44:03the figures are right, and make sure it's all
00:44:05foolproof, alright?
00:44:07I'll get on to that rider now, and I'll check
00:44:09the new schedules.
00:44:15Please move out of my way.
00:44:17You're acting like I'm radioactive.
00:44:19John, can you please step aside and let me get to work, thank you.
00:44:21You stay out of this, Jack.
00:44:23It's none of your business.
00:44:25This is between me and her.
00:44:27There is nothing between you and I.
00:44:29In fact, I doubt there ever was.
00:44:31Fucking asshole!
00:44:33What bullshit did you tell her now?
00:44:35Watch your tone, young man.
00:44:37You're not the boss around here.
00:44:39If you don't watch yourself,
00:44:41I might just get security to escort
00:44:43your little bum bum out of here now.
00:44:45Whatever you did,
00:44:47I'm going to get to the bottom of it.
00:44:55It would be less stressful if you had a stronger drink.
00:44:57No, I'm good with this, thank you.
00:44:59Has my brother tried contacting you?
00:45:01He was quite adamant last time.
00:45:03No, he hasn't.
00:45:05That's good.
00:45:07Some of the staff have been approved to turn off,
00:45:09so we just need to adjust the budgets.
00:45:11Let me see that.
00:45:13Yeah, that's much better.
00:45:15I can really see this thing gleaming now.
00:45:19So, I'll just need your signature here,
00:45:21and your signature there.
00:45:25So, I'll just need your signature here,
00:45:27and here.
00:45:29Have I told you how beautiful you look today?
00:45:31What?
00:45:33Don't act all surprised.
00:45:35You surely have to know how you act around me
00:45:37when you dress like that.
00:45:39Why are you so shy?
00:45:41I think we're done for the day.
00:45:43No, no, no.
00:45:45I'm going to work till the tension is...
00:45:47What the hell are you doing?
00:45:55Jack!
00:45:57Jack, that hurts!
00:45:59Let go of me!
00:46:01That's exactly what I'm doing.
00:46:03Don't be so naive.
00:46:05Jack, stop.
00:46:07Why are you so insistent?
00:46:09I know you want it.
00:46:11I'm so, so, so, so...
00:46:15This is actually the sort you won't get away with.
00:46:19I thought I'd rather be having a brawl.
00:46:22Fucking bitch, where are you going?
00:46:39What's this?
00:46:41That's a half a million dollars.
00:46:43Yours, yeah.
00:46:45Fine. I know you didn't just call me
00:46:47out of the blue for nothing.
00:46:51I was coming to you because
00:46:53I know you've got your daughter's best interests at heart.
00:46:55She's especially got that ego.
00:46:59Now, I can tell that you know your way around words.
00:47:01Can we just get straight to the point, please?
00:47:03Alright, then.
00:47:05You're aware of
00:47:07stipulations in my father's will.
00:47:09I want to marry your daughter.
00:47:11There's been a misunderstanding.
00:47:13And I need you to smooth it over.
00:47:15Because, well,
00:47:17you're the only one that your daughter looks up to.
00:47:19So what type of misunderstanding
00:47:21was this? I mean, why don't you just go to her
00:47:23and ask her forgiveness? I mean,
00:47:25my daughter doesn't hold grudges. I know my daughter.
00:47:27Well, that's between your daughter and I.
00:47:29I hope you understand.
00:47:31No, you see, I don't understand.
00:47:33Because you just made it my business
00:47:35by bringing it to me.
00:47:37Now tell me, was this a misunderstanding
00:47:39of a sexual nature?
00:47:41And was this misunderstanding
00:47:43non-consensual?
00:47:45As I said,
00:47:47this is between your daughter and I.
00:47:49And the way I answer you or not happens behind closed doors.
00:47:51Now, you see,
00:47:53you are more than a
00:47:55twisted rich prick if you think you're
00:47:57going to pay me to hush my daughter.
00:48:03I'm sorry.
00:48:05Yes, very so. Now, I don't know
00:48:07what tricks you have
00:48:09up your sleeve, but I can tell you this.
00:48:11There's nothing
00:48:13compared to the wrath of an angry woman.
00:48:15And you can best believe
00:48:17that if you did something
00:48:19bad to her, you'll pay for it.
00:48:21That I'll have to
00:48:23agree with.
00:48:25But how angry and heartbreaking would your daughter
00:48:27feel when she knows this isn't the first
00:48:29sweetener that you got from
00:48:31the Blackthorns? Sweetener?
00:48:33I don't know what you're talking about.
00:48:35I'm not done, Miss Harris.
00:48:37I didn't just come to you because I was feeling sentimental
00:48:39about your relationship with your daughter.
00:48:41I came here to offer you more money,
00:48:43an additional payment that you got from my father
00:48:45to introduce me.
00:48:47I really don't know what you're talking about.
00:48:49Spare me the bullshit.
00:48:51I've seen your signature on a couple documents.
00:48:53I just wonder how sane my father
00:48:55was when he changed the will.
00:48:57Best of my knowledge,
00:48:59only a minor would need a guardian signature.
00:49:01What do I know?
00:49:03That's not what happened.
00:49:05But I do know that in the court of law,
00:49:07a carer such as yourself
00:49:09taking advantage of a poor man's
00:49:11What do you expect me to do, Jack?
00:49:13Hm?
00:49:15Wave this magic wand and just
00:49:17miraculously have my daughter forgive you?
00:49:19I don't know what your will got in mind.
00:49:21It doesn't work that way.
00:49:23It's a beautiful thing right now, isn't it?
00:49:25Maybe you should mention John or Alice
00:49:27or his name to your daughter. Maybe that will help.
00:49:29I'm sure you'd be more successful and a lot richer
00:49:31if you knew how to play your cards right.
00:49:33Maybe you might get the forgiveness of your daughter.
00:49:35I'm not sure, but that's up to you.
00:49:41So long, Bellevue Hotel.
00:50:03Hi darling.
00:50:05How are you doing?
00:50:07Mum, I thought I wasn't seeing you dwell on that
00:50:09Well, I was in the neighbourhood
00:50:11and I thought I'd bring us some pizza.
00:50:13Thank you for the pizza.
00:50:15Let's have it straight away.
00:50:17Pleasure.
00:50:19So, how have you been doing?
00:50:21You look really relaxed today.
00:50:23You haven't told me that my hair
00:50:25looks like a bird's nest
00:50:27or the baggy clothes I'm wearing
00:50:29are going to scare off a serious
00:50:31Well, okay.
00:50:33But I'm sure you'll be fine.
00:50:35I'm sure you will.
00:50:37Well, okay.
00:50:39So, I can't even give you a compliment now
00:50:41and it's taken the opposite way.
00:50:43I can't even say nice things to you now.
00:50:45Rather, tell me how is things
00:50:47with that black thorn boy
00:50:49that you were smiling about the other day?
00:50:51William John?
00:50:53Yeah.
00:50:55We're no longer together.
00:50:57I honestly don't know if we ever were.
00:50:59What about the other one?
00:51:01I think it also starts with a J.
00:51:03Jack?
00:51:05I don't remember.
00:51:07Last things with him, last I heard
00:51:09he was actually now your boss or something.
00:51:11Things between us, how they should be.
00:51:13What does that mean?
00:51:15Is there something else going on?
00:51:17You know that you can talk to me, sweetie.
00:51:19Okay.
00:51:27There was an incident
00:51:29between me and Jack.
00:51:31He got physical.
00:51:33Are you guys drinking?
00:51:35No, Mum, I wasn't drinking.
00:51:37Neither was he.
00:51:39Okay, I'm just asking.
00:51:41I mean, what do you think is going to happen
00:51:43if you're alone with your boss?
00:51:45I mean, he's a handsome boy
00:51:47and you guys must be attracted to each other.
00:51:49What are you saying, that I wanted this?
00:51:51I didn't.
00:51:53I'm just saying you can use this
00:51:55to your advantage.
00:51:57I mean, things didn't work out with you and John.
00:51:59Why not just go with the other brother?
00:52:01He was so messed up.
00:52:03He tried to assault me.
00:52:05Can you hear yourself?
00:52:07I've just been through something really traumatic
00:52:09and I won't hear any more from you.
00:52:11I can't do this with you anymore, Mum.
00:52:13Every time I think
00:52:15we're trying to bond, you just
00:52:17start making unreasonable demands and...
00:52:19Can you just please, please?
00:52:21Fine.
00:52:31Sigh.
00:52:43We need to move on to Beyonce
00:52:45and step down to Harrison's title.
00:52:47This is coming straight on the heels of news
00:52:49that the deal with Blackphone Corporation has finally been sealed.
00:52:51Jack might...
00:52:53The woman in the photo
00:52:55is engaged to someone else.
00:53:01Hey.
00:53:03Thank you for agreeing to see me.
00:53:09You sounded desperate.
00:53:11It was the least I could do.
00:53:13I know what it feels like
00:53:15not to be heard.
00:53:17I'm sorry about that.
00:53:19I do that because
00:53:21I don't want to hurt you.
00:53:23I don't want to hurt you.
00:53:25I don't want to hurt you.
00:53:27I don't want to hurt you.
00:53:29I do that because
00:53:31I just wanted to lash out
00:53:33and hurt you the same way you hurt me.
00:53:35For the hundredth time,
00:53:37I have no idea what you're talking about.
00:53:39Could you please get straight to the point?
00:53:41Why do you want to see me now?
00:53:43It's been weeks since you slammed
00:53:45your door in my face.
00:53:47I wanted to apologize
00:53:49because I acted
00:53:51unfairly.
00:53:53I was shown pictures
00:53:55and a live video of you with a beautiful
00:53:57Asian woman.
00:53:59Who? Ella Sui?
00:54:01That's ridiculous. She's a client.
00:54:03I know that now, but
00:54:05at the time, it seemed like you guys
00:54:07were much more than clients, and
00:54:09trust me, I just saw you guys live.
00:54:13Who showed you those pictures and videos?
00:54:15Who wanted to tear us apart?
00:54:19It was Jack,
00:54:21wasn't it?
00:54:23Yes, it was Jack.
00:54:25He completely manipulated me.
00:54:27He had access to security footage
00:54:29and I completely
00:54:31fell for it.
00:54:33What were you falling for?
00:54:35I realized who she was
00:54:37after I saw a news segment of her
00:54:39and her fiance.
00:54:41Oh.
00:54:43I'm here to apologize for the unkind way
00:54:45I treated you, and I embarrassed you,
00:54:47and can you
00:54:49please forgive me?
00:54:55I'm so sorry.
00:55:01I'm so sorry.
00:55:03I was a bitch to you, Chuck.
00:55:07Jack is a master manipulator,
00:55:09but I can't believe
00:55:11he got access to the security footage.
00:55:13I could sue for
00:55:15violation of privacy.
00:55:17I doubt the owners thought it through.
00:55:19I don't think so either,
00:55:21but Jack mentioned something about
00:55:23asking someone a favor.
00:55:25You must be so hurt.
00:55:27I'm sorry you were put in that position.
00:55:29Of course I forgive you.
00:55:31Why are you
00:55:33so kind to me?
00:55:35You should make me grovel, I deserve it.
00:55:39There's no point in that.
00:55:41We've wasted weeks already.
00:55:43I've missed you so much.
00:55:45I've missed you too.
00:55:53My lips
00:55:55are as soft as I remember.
00:55:57I've missed you
00:55:59too.
00:56:01Did anything
00:56:03happen between you and Jack?
00:56:05Why did you ask? Did you say something?
00:56:07No, it's just
00:56:09you were friendlier to him
00:56:11that day at the office.
00:56:13No, nothing happened.
00:56:15Except the one he tried to force
00:56:17himself upon me. It was
00:56:19late. He did what?
00:56:21Fine.
00:56:23He didn't rape me. That fucking
00:56:25asshole! That son of a bitch!
00:56:27I'm gonna fucking kill him!
00:56:29Don't make
00:56:31excuses for him.
00:56:33What he did was fucked up.
00:56:35What the fuck's going on here?
00:56:51What the fuck does it look like, brother?
00:56:53My darling
00:56:55and I are just enjoying dinner together
00:56:57in our family home.
00:56:59Isn't that right, sweetheart?
00:57:01Imposter is the best
00:57:03I've ever tasted in my life.
00:57:05Now, isn't that nice?
00:57:07Jack, surely you'd like to join us?
00:57:09Join you?
00:57:11No, thank you.
00:57:13Okay. Your loss.
00:57:17It's good to see you both have reached
00:57:19each other again. How sweet.
00:57:21You must be thrilled.
00:57:23Yes.
00:57:25We are, in fact, very thrilled.
00:57:27It only took us a short while
00:57:29to find each other, and
00:57:31that's how you know it's real.
00:57:33Right. And you've been missing work
00:57:35because of your
00:57:37lover?
00:57:39No.
00:57:45I've been missing work because
00:57:47my boss assaulted me.
00:57:49I had to resign.
00:57:51Or maybe HR hasn't mentioned that
00:57:53to you yet. Assault?
00:57:55We both know you seduced
00:57:57me. What assault?
00:57:59An HR?
00:58:01John, she's fucking
00:58:03lying. Can you repeat that, please?
00:58:05Slower this time.
00:58:07I don't think I quite urged you
00:58:09the first time.
00:58:11She's a what?
00:58:13Eva's only here because her
00:58:15mummy sold her off.
00:58:17You don't know mummy told you this.
00:58:19What the hell are you talking about?
00:58:21What do you mean she sold me off?
00:58:23You don't know.
00:58:25Mama Harrod
00:58:27Mama Harrod just put an extra clause
00:58:29into the claim because she
00:58:31wanted more money.
00:58:33What, you think she's just going to kick her daughter
00:58:35up a social ladder?
00:58:37No, no, no. She was only here to prove
00:58:39your father gave something in return.
00:58:41You're lying!
00:58:51Am I lying?
00:58:53Am I lying?
00:58:55Maybe you should ask her yourself.
00:58:57It's not the first time
00:58:59she's had Blackthorn money
00:59:01stuffed in her pockets.
00:59:03Did she surprise
00:59:05you with a visit?
00:59:07Yeah, she did.
00:59:09So that was you who pushed her on me.
00:59:11My lips
00:59:13are sealed.
00:59:15When did you become such a
00:59:17terrible person, Jack?
00:59:19You're destroying the relationship between a mother
00:59:21and a daughter just to get what you want.
00:59:23She's already made her
00:59:25choice. Eva has
00:59:27chosen me just as I have chosen her.
00:59:29It's over, Jack.
00:59:31No, no.
00:59:35It's not over.
00:59:45Please say something.
00:59:49I don't know what to say other than
00:59:51I'm sorry we've put you through so much.
00:59:53You didn't ask for any
00:59:55of this.
00:59:57I'm sorry that your mother hasn't been honest with you.
00:59:59That revelation
01:00:01about her must have hurt so much.
01:00:05I wonder why she just pushed
01:00:07Jack's assault to me on the side.
01:00:11She just...
01:00:13She didn't seem to care
01:00:15about the trauma
01:00:17I went through.
01:00:21She just told me
01:00:23look on the bright side.
01:00:27It's crazy that she pushed
01:00:29Jack onto me after what he did.
01:00:35I've been so stupid.
01:00:39Don't say that.
01:00:41You're kind and smart
01:00:43and good
01:00:45and vulnerable to people trying to take advantage
01:00:47of you.
01:00:51I love you.
01:00:53I love you too.
01:00:57Will you marry me?
01:01:05Will you marry me?
01:01:07Yes, yes,
01:01:09Junior.
01:01:17Now we can finally put an end
01:01:19to all of this bullshit with my brother.
01:01:21I can't wait to see the look
01:01:23on his face when we tell him you're engaged.
01:01:25He's going to be furious.
01:01:29Okay, but
01:01:31we have to tell the lawyer about
01:01:33what's happened.
01:01:35Yes.
01:01:37But first,
01:01:39we need to celebrate.
01:01:41You're going to be my lovely wife, Eva.
01:01:43Cheers to us.
01:01:45Cheers.
01:01:49Cheers.
01:01:57What the heavenly fuck?
01:02:03We'll see about this.
01:02:05Where can I see you?
01:02:07It's urgent.
01:02:09When are you available?
01:02:11Yes, it's about the will.
01:02:13I'll be over as soon as I can.
01:02:15No, John doesn't need to know about this.
01:02:17I'm just concerned.
01:02:25You got yourself into this
01:02:27and the only way out for you is to hold up
01:02:29your end of the bargain.
01:02:31My end of the bargain?
01:02:33You tampered with the contract
01:02:35and now everything is messed up.
01:02:37My daughter won't even speak to me.
01:02:39Can't just...
01:02:43What was that?
01:02:45Um...
01:02:47That's confidential.
01:02:49Yeah, yeah, of course it is.
01:02:51Man, whoever that was, she was pissed.
01:02:53You said you had something to tell me.
01:02:55Something about the will?
01:02:57I have news.
01:02:59Please, sit.
01:03:01This is going to blow everything up in the air.
01:03:03Yes, yes, I'm listening.
01:03:05I want to contest my father's will.
01:03:07What?
01:03:09Well, he signed it and he was forced by Hannah Harris.
01:03:11It's probably under duress.
01:03:13If I have to sue John over it, so be it.
01:03:23Oh, Jack.
01:03:25What's so fucking funny?
01:03:27The contract your father signed
01:03:29with Hannah Harris was not signed under duress.
01:03:31How can you be so sure of my private investigation?
01:03:33I'm sure because I was there when it was signed.
01:03:35It was your father's idea to begin with.
01:03:39That's...
01:03:41It can't be.
01:03:43But why would my father sign a contract?
01:03:45He knew Hannah Harris wanted money for her incentive.
01:03:47But...
01:03:49He also...
01:03:51Made sure she had a reason to stay involved
01:03:53even after the money was paid to her.
01:03:55What reason?
01:03:57Your father was a smart man.
01:03:59Though not unkind.
01:04:01He didn't get so wealthy
01:04:03by being a pushover.
01:04:05He included a clause in the contract
01:04:07that stipulated that if Angeline
01:04:09did not marry one of his sons,
01:04:11Hannah would have to repay the money.
01:04:13Let me guess.
01:04:15Hannah didn't know about that before she signed?
01:04:17She did not.
01:04:19Foolishly, she did not read the fine print.
01:04:21Your father left an apology note
01:04:23and me to explain
01:04:25exactly why he did what he did.
01:04:27Fuck.
01:04:29Jack Blackburn.
01:04:31This is near the time, not the place,
01:04:33for that kind of language.
01:04:35Man, I was so close to getting this right.
01:04:37Why is my father always one step ahead?
01:04:39Even from the fucking grave.
01:04:41I understand you're upset.
01:04:43But if you had taken this to court,
01:04:45you would have been humiliated when it got thrown out of you.
01:04:47You did yourself a favor by coming to me first, son.
01:04:49I'm not your fucking son.
01:04:51You know what?
01:04:53This is all freaked from the side.
01:04:55You just want little Johnny Boy to win, huh?
01:04:57Guess what?
01:04:59I'm not going to give over and lay on my fucking grave.
01:05:07What are you doing here?
01:05:31Where's your daughter?
01:05:33Not here.
01:05:35I told you she's not here. Are you deaf?
01:05:38Karen's perfectly fine, thank you very much.
01:05:41This is where your daughter lives in a shithole.
01:05:44I guess they always have a fucking thirst for free money.
01:05:46Like mother, like daughter.
01:05:48Oh, excuse me.
01:05:49You can't come into my daughter's place and then throw insults around.
01:05:53What are you doing here anyway, you crazy?
01:05:55You need to get out or I'm calling the cops.
01:05:57Calling the police? I didn't know you were supposed to be here.
01:05:59I'm her mother. I have a key.
01:06:03It was you at the lawyer's office earlier, wasn't it?
01:06:06You need to get out.
01:06:11If you didn't fuck things up with your daughter, I would have had that man.
01:06:13Oh, excuse me.
01:06:14If you weren't such a sleazy, creepy son of a bitch, you may have stood a chance with her.
01:06:20You dirty girl, being like your dirty daughter.
01:06:22I guess that man doesn't fall too far from the tree, does he?
01:06:32Hannah, what the fuck? Say something.
01:06:37What are you saying?
01:06:39Help.
01:06:40No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
01:06:43Hannah, don't you dare die on me.
01:06:53There's a woman, she's unconscious, she suddenly fell.
01:06:58I don't know anything about medication.
01:07:01She's in her head.
01:07:07Fucking fucking joking up.
01:07:13Stop it, for fuck's sake.
01:07:27Stop it.
01:07:58I'm so gonna miss this place.
01:08:00Even though it's small, but I was independent in the happy year.
01:08:06Don't get too comfy.
01:08:08We're only here to pick up your things.
01:08:10You're gonna love living in the mansion.
01:08:15That's weird.
01:08:17What's weird?
01:08:19Something feels off.
01:08:21I don't know.
01:08:23What's weird?
01:08:25Something feels off.
01:08:27I don't know.
01:08:28The apartment seems cleaner than I remember.
01:08:31Maybe your mother came by.
01:08:33You mentioned she had a key.
01:08:35Hannah hated this place.
01:08:37Cleaning's the last thing she'd do here.
01:08:40Maybe you just left it cleaner than you remember.
01:08:46I'd like to bring someone with me to the prayer.
01:08:49They're not sophisticated, but I like them.
01:08:54What about your toiletries?
01:08:56Good idea, I just need to pack my things in the bathroom.
01:09:09Ava, I need to go.
01:09:14What? Why?
01:09:16I've been ignoring Jack's calls, but he just sent me a message saying there's been an emergency.
01:09:21I need to go meet him.
01:09:23Maybe it's okay, he's still your brother.
01:09:26I'm sure he's fine.
01:09:28It's probably just a flat tire or something.
01:09:30I'll be back ASAP.
01:09:32Don't stay too long, okay?
01:09:52What?
01:10:00That's not him.
01:10:05That's...
01:10:13That's...
01:10:15That's my kid.
01:10:17You.
01:10:19You sent John a message?
01:10:21Yes, I did.
01:10:23What are you doing?
01:10:25Where did you come from?
01:10:27Is this one of your games you're playing?
01:10:29Give me that! That's mum's!
01:10:31I'll take that, thank you.
01:10:35You didn't answer my question.
01:10:38What are you doing inside my apartment?
01:10:40Some luck, then I just walked in.
01:10:42That's impossible.
01:10:44I would have heard you. Why did you text John about an emergency when you were already coming here yourself?
01:10:49What are you trying to imply, Eva, that I broke into your house or lied to my brother?
01:10:54I'm not trying to imply anything.
01:10:56But something isn't adding up, Uncle.
01:10:58Come on, Eva, you can trust me.
01:11:02We're going to be family after all.
01:11:04Why did you have that engagement?
01:11:06Maybe John told you.
01:11:08No, he didn't.
01:11:11Let go of me!
01:11:13Stop it, bitch. Listen.
01:11:15Listen!
01:11:17No!
01:11:19Shut up!
01:11:24Don't say anything. Keep your mouth shut.
01:11:33Hello, brother.
01:11:35No, I don't know where she is.
01:11:38That mistake was a mistake.
01:11:40I'm out of town right now.
01:11:48Sorry, I had something in my throat.
01:11:50Well, wherever she is, I'm sure she'll be home soon.
01:11:59What do you want? Why are you doing this?
01:12:02I figured that one out yet.
01:12:04All I do know is that my brother would do anything for you.
01:12:07I don't want to see him suffer.
01:12:09What did you do with Anna?
01:12:11Stop with the fucking stupid questions!
01:12:25You be a good little girl and don't fucking move or I'll pull a bullet in your head.
01:12:30I won't say anything.
01:12:32I'll be fucking serious.
01:12:34Whatever it is you want.
01:12:36I'll do it. Just watch.
01:12:38Whatever it is you want, I'll do it.
01:12:42Don't do anything stupid, otherwise I'll send you to meet your mother.
01:12:45What did you just say?
01:12:47What about my mother?
01:12:49Oops. Did I say something?
01:12:51Hey!
01:12:53Do you know how to drive a car?
01:12:55Get in the driver's seat now.
01:13:03Yes, I understand.
01:13:05But this is an emergency.
01:13:07Mr. Blackthorn would appreciate it if the matter was dealt with urgently.
01:13:13I understand.
01:13:18Is there any news yet?
01:13:20I'm afraid not.
01:13:22The commissioner insists that we have to wait at least 48 hours before we can declare her missing.
01:13:26Damn it.
01:13:28It's the same thing they told me.
01:13:30Can't they even pretend to care?
01:13:32Have you tried calling Jack again?
01:13:35He isn't answering.
01:13:37I don't know what's wrong with him.
01:13:39First he sends me those cryptic text messages, and now he's not answering my calls.
01:13:44Maybe he'll answer yours.
01:13:46I doubt it, but we can try just in case.
01:13:50This might be bad timing, but Jack came to see me the other day.
01:13:54He wanted to contest your father's will.
01:13:57He was ready to sue you.
01:14:00What?
01:14:02What do you mean, he was ready to sue me?
01:14:04He believed Anna tricked your father into giving her money,
01:14:07and he wanted to prove that that may have impacted the will.
01:14:11That's the kind of person he is.
01:14:13I don't understand.
01:14:15And he wanted to prove that that may have impacted the will.
01:14:18That's preposterous.
01:14:20Why wasn't I told about this earlier?
01:14:22I didn't think it was important because I clarified to Jack that he was misguided.
01:14:26I should have been informed immediately.
01:14:28You're meant to be impartial, remember?
01:14:40Hello, Johnny boy.
01:14:42Frankie.
01:14:43What a great evening this is tonight, isn't it?
01:14:46Jack, you're so surprised, are you?
01:14:48Bet you didn't see this one coming, did you?
01:14:51Keep him where I can see him now.
01:14:54You don't have to do this, Jack.
01:14:56No, I've done something really stupid.
01:14:59I can't take it back now.
01:15:01What did you do?
01:15:03We can work this out, just the two of us.
01:15:05You did something to my mother.
01:15:07Is it not right, Jack?
01:15:08Try not to know what you're talking about.
01:15:13I found Anna's earring in my apartment.
01:15:16And then he threatened to shoot me.
01:15:18No, no, no, no.
01:15:20It was an accident.
01:15:22I didn't mean to do it.
01:15:23I didn't mean to kill her.
01:15:25No!
01:15:30It's okay.
01:15:32Like you said, it was just an accident.
01:15:35We can work this out together.
01:15:37I'm sorry, man.
01:15:38I didn't mean it to come this way.
01:15:40I don't know what I'm doing anymore.
01:15:42It's okay, brother.
01:15:44We can work this out, just the two of us.
01:15:46Before all this craziness happened.
01:15:51No, it's not okay!
01:15:52You murdered my mother!
01:15:54Eva, no!
