Short filmTranscript
00:00:00Someone went wild last night, or did you?
00:00:30Not too bad, as far as the last night of being single goes.
00:00:33I don't get it, man. Why'd she leave without saying goodbye?
00:00:36Maybe she's on the way to the marriage registry to marry you.
00:00:39Yeah, maybe.
00:00:41So, according to your mother's will, as soon as you get married, you'll receive the share she left for you.
00:00:45So I've arranged for someone for you to have a fake marriage with.
00:00:48I trust your taste.
00:00:54Oh, look at that. The woman who agreed to your fake marriage is already on her way.
00:00:58And wherever she is, with that marriage license, the Norman group officially becomes a part.
00:01:02So why didn't you go with what your grandfather's arranged marriage?
00:01:05Man, I'd much rather be that girl from last night, but I don't know if I'm ever going to see her again.
00:01:18Achoo!
00:01:29Achoo!
00:01:45If I had known that you were the person I was going to marry, we could have shared a ride from the hotel.
00:01:49Well, I am short on cash these days, so...
00:01:52Same. I had to borrow the suit.
00:01:55It's a good suit.
00:01:57Alright, this is all that I have today.
00:01:59Thank you for coming, and you'll get the rest when we divorce in one year.
00:02:09I guess I deserve an Oscar for my performance today.
00:02:16Inform the whole company. A new era starts today.
00:02:20Sure thing.
00:02:22With the shares from your mother's will, you now own 50% of Laura Group.
00:02:27You murderers. Better watch your backs. I'm coming for you.
00:02:33I'm going to avenge you, Mom.
00:02:37I guess it's time to show them who's boss.
00:02:40Yes, boss.
00:02:53What? A new presence here?
00:03:04Surprise, surprise.
00:03:10Now?
00:03:12Yes.
00:03:23Rene! Looks like my stepsister decided to crawl back out of hell.
00:03:27Unfortunately for you, I'm here to kick you two out of my mother's company.
00:03:30Your mother's?
00:03:32You know her name means nothing. Now it belongs to my mom.
00:03:36Speaking of her, great job selling off all the company's shares.
00:03:39I'm sure the new president will reward you for that.
00:03:41How did... how did you...
00:03:43That's ridiculous.
00:03:45I don't know what you're talking about.
00:03:48How did... how did you...
00:03:50That's ridiculous.
00:03:52I think we should settle this in front of everyone.
00:03:57Here they come.
00:04:00As office manager, it is my pleasure to welcome the new president...
00:04:13Miss Mara Brown!
00:04:15Who, me?
00:04:17Wow, Mrs. Brown was a plan B to take over.
00:04:20Are you sure? She's the new president of the company?
00:04:23Who else would it be? Your mother from six feet under?
00:04:30Well then you must have the invitation from Norman.
00:04:33What invitation?
00:04:35For the party tonight. They've invited all their business partners, including Laura Group.
00:04:42Of course I do.
00:04:44Great. Then I will see you there.
00:04:49Let's see how long you can keep up the act.
00:05:10Excuse me?
00:05:12How dare you? I'm the president of the Laura Group.
00:05:15I'm sorry, ma'am, but I can only accept invitations.
00:05:22Oh, looks like I forgot it at home.
00:05:25Can I speak with your manager?
00:05:27Just admit it, Mara. You're not the president. You don't have an invitation.
00:05:30Where's your invitation, then?
00:05:36Damon, help!
00:05:40This skank is trying to bully me because I didn't have an invitation.
00:05:46Don't worry, honeypuff. As the host of this party, I can guarantee no one's going to mess with you.
00:05:52The whole Norman family doesn't welcome someone like you.
00:05:55The host? So that means you're the heir to the Norman family?
00:06:00Yes, I have a lot going on lately.
00:06:06What the fuck are you doing? Get her out of here!
00:06:08Mr. Norman, is that any way to treat a guest?
00:06:15Treat a guest?
00:06:19How could you? No, that has to be a fake!
00:06:30May I?
00:06:33Damon, stop her!
00:06:39Really?
00:06:47Dorothy, can you look up Damon Norman for me and top the head of the charity meet-me here?
00:07:03Are you all right, my dear wife?
00:07:07What are you doing here?
00:07:10You're working.
00:07:13What about you?
00:07:15I'm... someone's escort.
00:07:21You've been working for a long time.
00:07:23I've been working for a long time, too.
00:07:26I'm... someone's escort.
00:07:32You do know you're married, right?
00:07:35Of course. I can't just rely on my husband's tips.
00:07:40Your husband's not like a real jerk?
00:07:42He's the worst.
00:07:43Well, I didn't know this party for dirty rats.
00:07:47Neither did I, until you showed up.
00:07:57Clean that up.
00:08:03Are you really asking me?
00:08:05Well, of course I am. I'm the fiancé of the heir to the Norman family.
00:08:21How could you do that? Do you know how much that costs?
00:08:24Well, with the price of the champagne that's on it, I would say your fur just increased in value.
00:08:38It's my stepsister. Sorry that you had to see that.
00:08:42No worries. All families have issues. You should have let me deal with her.
00:08:47Well, I couldn't let you get in trouble.
00:08:54In return, you could have a little authentic husband experience with me.
00:09:01I couldn't afford that.
00:09:09Get the necklace from the safe. Someone deserves a gift.
00:09:20Here's a gift for Ms. Brown.
00:09:29What the fuck are you doing? Get her out of here.
00:09:31Mr. Norman, is that any way to treat a guest?
00:09:37How could you? No, that has to be a fake.
00:09:48May I?
00:09:54Damon! Stop her!
00:09:59It's real.
00:10:08Dorothy, can you look up Damon Norman for me and top the head of the charity meeting here?
00:10:25Are you all right, my dear wife?
00:10:29What are you doing here?
00:10:32You're working.
00:10:35What about you?
00:10:37I'm... someone's escort.
00:10:43You do know you're married, right?
00:10:47Of course.
00:10:49You do know you're married, right?
00:10:52Of course. I can't just rely on my husband's tips.
00:10:57Your husband sounds like a real jerk.
00:10:59He's the worst.
00:11:00Well, I didn't know this party for dirty rats.
00:11:04Neither did I, until you showed up.
00:11:15Clean that up.
00:11:20Are you really asking me? Are you really asking me?
00:11:24Well, of course I am. I'm the fiancé of the heir to the Norman family.
00:11:40How could you do that? Do you know how much that cost?
00:11:43Well, with the price of the champagne that's on it, I would say your fur just increased in value.
00:11:50What?
00:11:58It's my stepsister. Sorry that you had to see that.
00:12:02No worries. All families have issues. You should have let me deal with her.
00:12:07Well, I couldn't let you get in trouble.
00:12:11In return, you could have a little authentic husband experience with me.
00:12:18I couldn't afford that.
00:12:26Get the necklace from the safe. Someone deserves a gift.
00:12:30Someone deserves a gift.
00:12:39Here's a gift for Miss Brown.
00:12:49Oh, that's me. Oh, it's beautiful. I bet Damon got this for me.
00:12:56Much better than an invitation, if I do say so myself.
00:13:00Mara, is that the only way you can make yourself feel valuable?
00:13:03Oh, wait, this is for, uh, Miss Renee Brown?
00:13:08I'm Renee Brown.
00:13:12May I ask who sent this?
00:13:14Sorry, I don't know.
00:13:19You bitch! You set this entire thing up with a fake necklace and everything just to embarrass me!
00:13:25Mara, the only person embarrassing you here is yourself.
00:13:29No one has ever given you a gift because you are an unwanted loser.
00:13:34Unwanted? Says who?
00:13:41Unwanted? Says who?
00:13:47She's with me.
00:13:48Oh, a skank and a server. How fitting.
00:13:52But you know what, sister? I did think you would go with someone more of like a washed-up, in-his-80s type.
00:13:58Thank you. But speaking of losers, you should probably go check in with your fiancé.
00:14:03My fiancé is the heir to the Norman Group. One word and he'll have both of you two out on your asses.
00:14:11I would like to see him try.
00:14:14Damon, come to my rescue, please.
00:14:17Hey, what's going on?
00:14:19Hello, Damon. So you're her fiancé, the heir to the Norman Group?
00:14:25Yes, speak with some respect.
00:14:27He's full of lies. He's not the real heir.
00:14:34He's not the real heir.
00:14:36Are you accusing him?
00:14:38Why don't you let him speak for himself?
00:14:41Enough. Not my guessing. Let's go.
00:14:46Let me spell it out for you two. He's the cousin to the heir, who likes to use the family name to scam people.
00:14:54How do you know that?
00:14:56Because I'm the real heir's assistant. Right, Damon?
00:15:04And you know the cost of lying, right, Damon?
00:15:10Yes.
00:15:16Just let me go, please.
00:15:21Damon may have been lying, Mara Brown, but you're not fooling me.
00:15:29Damon may have been lying, Mara Brown, but you're not fooling me.
00:15:32It is not your time to speak, so I would shut it if I were you.
00:15:39You tell him to meet me at the ballroom. Thank you.
00:15:43May I speak to the president of the Laura Group?
00:15:46That's me. What do you want?
00:15:48Such an honor to finally meet you. Thank you and your company for the generous donation. It will benefit so many children.
00:15:55Oh, yeah, don't worry about it. It's nothing.
00:15:58Would you prefer the five million as a check or a bank transfer?
00:16:02Five million? What?
00:16:05Your assistant asked me to meet you here. Or you could just sign your name on this contract.
00:16:13You framed me.
00:16:15Oh.
00:16:16Well, it's not framing if you're the real president. Unless... you're lying.
00:16:23You framed me.
00:16:25Well, it's not framing if you're the real president. Unless... you're lying.
00:16:34You know what? I don't feel so well. I don't even think I could pick up that pen. You'll have to find me another day.
00:16:45Mara's a fake. I'm such a fool.
00:16:47Oh, don't be too hard on yourself.
00:16:49Well, where's the real president?
00:16:55I know. The real president...
00:17:01is in the office.
00:17:16Can I have a dance with you?
00:17:18Yeah.
00:17:23Seems like everyone has trust issues tonight.
00:17:26Do you?
00:17:29Like what?
00:17:31Are you really just an assistant?
00:17:36What about you? Are you really an escort? Where's your client?
00:17:45Seems like everyone has secrets.
00:17:48Sometimes the best solution is to just ignore the problem. At least for tonight.
00:17:55I agree. But I have to admit it'll probably be difficult for me to suppress my curiosity.
00:18:01Then I guess I'll have to keep you busy.
00:18:03How so?
00:18:15I don't know.
00:18:17I don't know.
00:18:19I don't know.
00:18:21I don't know.
00:18:23I don't know.
00:18:25I don't know.
00:18:27I don't know.
00:18:29I don't know.
00:18:31I don't know.
00:18:33I don't know.
00:18:35I don't know.
00:18:37I don't know.
00:18:39I don't know.
00:18:41I don't know.
00:18:43I don't know.
00:18:45I don't know.
00:18:53How generous.
00:19:00Dude, Lord Group is dumping our shares. Our stock price is crashing.
00:19:04What?
00:19:09Do we know who the president is yet?
00:19:11Every news source I can't find anything on who the president is.
00:19:18That's impossible.
00:19:20What is it?
00:19:22Laura Brown? The founder of Laura Group? Didn't she pass away like five years ago?
00:19:27I'm going to get to the bottom of this.
00:19:30Phase one completed. Mara and her mother had heavily invested in Norman Group, so now it's time to watch their assets shrink.
00:19:37By the way, I made the donation in your mother's name.
00:19:40Thank you, Dottie.
00:19:42But I've been meaning to ask, won't doing this also affect Laura Group's assets?
00:19:47Nothing ventured, nothing gained. Don't worry, I have a plan.
00:19:53I trust you, but don't overdo it.
00:19:57I have a feeling I'll be meeting the heir of Norman Group very soon.
00:20:01Dear President, it's time to teach you a lesson.
00:20:10An informant says the president of Laura Group will be here tonight.
00:20:13I'll flush out this run. I swear.
00:20:21Renee?
00:20:22Parent, what are you doing here?
00:20:24I'm here to meet with the real president of the Laura Group. Have you seen...
00:20:32Damn, Paul.
00:20:34I forgot my wallet in the car. Um, why don't you order your drink? It's on me.
00:20:41Okay.
00:20:47Are you the one messing with the stocks?
00:20:49You're the president. Shouldn't you be asking yourself that?
00:20:52Well, I just wanted to let you know that we'll be selling off some art pieces to cover the losses.
00:20:58And yeah, that's your mom's last piece. The bid goes for one dollar.
00:21:04I hope you have your invitation for the auction.
00:21:08You crazy bitch!
00:21:13Things are different now, sister. I'm going to get every single one of her pieces back.
00:21:17This isn't over!
00:21:23Mom, I'm going to bring the pieces back to you.
00:21:26No, you can't do that.
00:21:28No.
00:21:33Mom, I'm going to protect your artwork and your company. I promise.
00:21:39Hey, what's got you so down, chica?
00:21:42Leave me alone.
00:21:43No, you need my company.
00:21:50Leave her alone!
00:21:55Who the fuck?
00:21:56I'm her husband.
00:21:57I get it. Someone's unsatisfied.
00:22:00Fuck!
00:22:10Are you alright?
00:22:12Fine. Thank you.
00:22:19You feeling confident?
00:22:21Let's see.
00:22:23Let us go, unless you want to see some blood.
00:22:28Run.
00:22:41They're not there now.
00:22:45Let's go.
00:22:53Hey, Bon.
00:22:54Yeah?
00:22:56Just to be safe, I think I should hold your hands a little longer.
00:23:01Is just holding my hands enough?
00:23:04Not really.
00:23:06Well, what else do you want?
00:23:23The auction's tomorrow.
00:23:2590% of the items are your mother's belongings, starting at $1.
00:23:32They're trying to humiliate her.
00:23:34And we can't let them get away with this.
00:23:36Yeah, but Mara's definitely going to have some tricks up her sleeve.
00:23:39And we need a white knight.
00:23:45Norman!
00:23:47Norman!
00:23:58Are you okay? You sounded urgent on the phone.
00:24:01I need to ask you a favor.
00:24:03As long as I can make it happen.
00:24:05I needed to pretend to be the heir of Norman Group.
00:24:10You want me to impersonate the heir of Norman?
00:24:13The heir's assistant. There's no one better for the job.
00:24:17I can ask him for real.
00:24:19These items were supposed to be my mother's legacy.
00:24:21And then she was kicked out of the group that she founded by Mara's mother.
00:24:25And now they're trying to cash in on her belongings.
00:24:28I need the heir to back you at the auction.
00:24:31You're my only choice.
00:24:38The century lord's daughter. Do you know who the new president is?
00:24:44Of course.
00:24:46Who is it?
00:24:52Me.
00:24:55Who is it?
00:24:59Me.
00:25:05I'm sorry, that was a bad joke.
00:25:09Thank goodness that you're not a stand-up comedian.
00:25:11No.
00:25:14Enough said. I can help you to get those things back.
00:25:35Are you being watched?
00:25:37Not yet. Do I really have to dress like a secret agent?
00:25:41Mara's met you already. She might recognize you.
00:25:45No way. In this outfit, I barely even recognize myself.
00:26:01Renee.
00:26:09Renee.
00:26:11It's been a long time.
00:26:13Oh, not long enough.
00:26:15Did you even think about saying hello when you got back?
00:26:17Well, I don't exactly fit in with a family of thieves and liars.
00:26:21Isn't that right, Miss President?
00:26:23Oh, sharp tongue just like your mother.
00:26:25I wonder how many auction items you're going to get to buy before you deplete your pocketbook.
00:26:30I wonder what the value of a useless dead body would bring to tonight.
00:26:35Don't worry. The only thing you can steal from my mother and I is this coward.
00:26:43Welcome to today's auction.
00:26:45Up first, we have a painting by Laura Brown, and we will start the bidding at...
00:26:52$1.
00:26:59$100,000.
00:27:00$100,000.
00:27:02$101,000.
00:27:04$200,000.
00:27:05$201,000.
00:27:10$500,000.
00:27:17Salt! Congratulations, guest number eight, who is the heir of the Norman Group.
00:27:24Salt! Congratulations, Mr. Norman, on securing all the items thus far.
00:27:30Mom, I have to go for him.
00:27:32Oh, dear. Don't rush it. You've got to play hard to get.
00:27:35For the final item this evening, we have a set of matching rings.
00:27:40Mother's wedding rings.
00:27:41They will start at just $1.
00:27:46$100,000.
00:27:48$100,000.
00:27:50$100,000.
00:27:51$100,000.
00:27:56Do I hear another bid?
00:27:59Salt!
00:28:00Congratulations on securing yet another item.
00:28:09Before you start talking big, you might want to check your bank account.
00:28:13Yeah, you're screwed. Even Norman's heir is on our side.
00:28:17I wouldn't be so sure about that.
00:28:19Congratulations, Ms. Brown. Mr. Norman has transferred all the items in your name.
00:28:24Here's the transfer document.
00:28:29Who's screwed now?
00:28:36Have you met this heir in person?
00:28:37Why would Mr. Norman help you? Mr. Norman!
00:28:43Wait a second.
00:28:45I knew it! You're the assistant!
00:28:48Assistant? How is the assistant going to pay for all this?
00:28:52About that. According to my mother's will, these items were always mine.
00:28:57And now they're finally back where they belong.
00:28:59I see that.
00:29:02Chloe, I have to thank you for holding this auction.
00:29:05Otherwise, I never would have known where you'd hidden them.
00:29:08Oh, that orphanage has taught you quite a bit, hasn't it?
00:29:18All the items today will go to Renee Brown.
00:29:33Thank you. I wouldn't have gotten these back so quickly if it wasn't for you.
00:29:37I was just doing my job, as your husband.
00:29:42I have something for you.
00:29:45Even though this is a marriage of convenience, we should still have rings.
00:29:50Are you sure? It was your mom's.
00:29:54More than ever.
00:30:02Renee Brown, will you marry me?
00:30:11You're too late.
00:30:15I'm already taken.
00:30:19By you.
00:30:23By you.
00:30:44I love you.
00:30:45I love you.
00:30:46I love you.
00:30:47I love you.
00:30:48I love you.
00:30:49I love you.
00:30:50I love you.
00:30:51I love you.
00:30:52I love you.
00:30:53I love you.
00:30:54I love you.
00:30:55I love you.
00:30:56I love you.
00:30:57I love you.
00:30:58I love you.
00:30:59I love you.
00:31:00I love you.
00:31:01I love you.
00:31:02I love you.
00:31:03I love you.
00:31:04I love you.
00:31:05I love you.
00:31:06I love you.
00:31:07I love you.
00:31:08I love you.
00:31:09I love you.
00:31:10I love you.
00:31:11I love you.
00:31:12I love you.
00:31:13I love you.
00:31:16Hello?
00:31:17Wake up Renee.
00:31:18Normann Group is fighting back.
00:31:20They're buying up our stock in large quantities.
00:31:23What?
00:31:26Are you sure about that?
00:31:28I'm done lying to her.
00:31:29I'm ready to tell her that I'm the one in charge of the Normann Group.
00:31:36Somethin' urgent?
00:31:37Yeah, it's... I'll explain later.
00:31:43Maybe next time.
00:31:54I didn't see your reservation, Grandpa.
00:31:57I didn't know I needed permission to come to my old office.
00:32:01How's Florida?
00:32:02Not bad.
00:32:04Until I found out that you're married to somebody I don't even know.
00:32:09Yep.
00:32:10My ship has sailed.
00:32:12There's nothing you can do about it.
00:32:14Is that so?
00:32:15I've already called Fiona back from Europe.
00:32:19Get ready for your marriage with her.
00:32:21I'm already the head of the Norman Group.
00:32:24Not even you can interfere with my life anymore.
00:32:30You don't know what I'm capable of, young man.
00:32:34It's a good thing we reacted quickly.
00:32:39Damage wasn't too severe.
00:32:41How come we're meeting here and not at your house?
00:32:45Barrett's there.
00:32:46Wait, are you two living together?
00:32:48No, not yet.
00:32:50Still haven't told him.
00:32:52Hello?
00:32:54Are you available tonight?
00:32:59I have something to tell you.
00:33:01What happened?
00:33:04Nothing.
00:33:06Just some family issues.
00:33:12Well, I'm an expert in that.
00:33:16If you are having family issues, you could always come stay at my place.
00:33:22Are you asking me to move in with you?
00:33:25Will you?
00:33:28Barry, I missed you so much.
00:33:31Fiona!
00:33:37It's been so long, you still like black coffee?
00:33:40No, thank you.
00:33:41I admire your devotion.
00:33:44And who is she?
00:33:46This is Renee, she's my-
00:33:48His blind date.
00:33:49Really?
00:33:50Yeah.
00:33:51But I have to think twice about whether to continue.
00:33:55Well, I guess I've been gone for too long.
00:33:58But I came back to marry Barrett, isn't that right?
00:34:03Fiona, I'm already married and Renee-
00:34:06I know.
00:34:08But Benjamin told me that you're willing to divorce her anytime for me.
00:34:12Is that so?
00:34:13Good to know.
00:34:16Excuse me for a moment.
00:34:18You two can wrap it up.
00:34:22Renee, let me explain first.
00:34:24Explain what?
00:34:26You have a gravely ill grandfather, you have to marry a wealthy woman to pay for his treatment?
00:34:31That is such a cliche, even for a soap opera.
00:34:35Wait, it's not true.
00:34:41Oh, what's going on?
00:34:42You two had a fight?
00:34:44None of your business.
00:34:45Barry, I haven't had time to book a hotel yet.
00:34:48Why don't I stay at your place?
00:34:52Such a gentleman would never say no.
00:34:55Sweet dreams, both of you.
00:35:00Enough!
00:35:01I'm not going to divorce Renee and I'm certainly not going to get married to you.
00:35:04She's your quickie wife.
00:35:06Now I know why Benjamin called me.
00:35:08She's not a quickie.
00:35:10She's the love of my life.
00:35:34You invited me.
00:35:36No taking backsies.
00:35:58I thought you were going to leave me.
00:36:00No chance.
00:36:03The thing I fear the most is deceit and betrayal.
00:36:13I know.
00:36:15And I won't do either of those things.
00:36:18Promise?
00:36:20I promise.
00:36:25You know what?
00:36:26This is never done.
00:36:33I don't recall ever seeing any jokes in there.
00:36:39No, man.
00:36:40I moved in with Renee.
00:36:42Oh, yeah.
00:36:43Totally normal thing to do.
00:36:45For a married couple.
00:36:47Okay, look, I'm just waiting for the right time to properly propose.
00:36:51What do you think about me purchasing the Laura group as a gift for her?
00:36:55You think she'll like it?
00:36:57Oh, my God, I hate rich people.
00:36:59Come on, man.
00:37:01I mean it.
00:37:03Look, it was founded by her mom, right?
00:37:05And I know that we still don't know who the president is,
00:37:07but the company deserves to be back in the hands of its rightful owner.
00:37:11All right, Romeo.
00:37:15The front desk handed this to me.
00:37:17Said it was from someone anonymous.
00:37:22Wait a second.
00:37:24Isn't this the room that me and Renee first met?
00:37:27Don't tell me she's planning on proposing officially as well.
00:37:31We'll see.
00:37:41Renee?
00:37:43Oh, hi.
00:37:51Hiya.
00:38:01I just keep loving you more.
00:38:03Me too.
00:38:05The hell?
00:38:07I can take you there.
00:38:09Don't worry.
00:38:11What happens here stays here.
00:38:13No.
00:38:15You're psychotic.
00:38:17Does she know who you really are?
00:38:19You two are from completely different worlds.
00:38:21There's no future for you and her.
00:38:23Thanks for your input.
00:38:25I'm sorry.
00:38:27I'm sorry.
00:38:30If you leave, you're going to regret it.
00:38:32If I stay, I'll regret it.
00:38:34I don't think about pulling any more tricks.
00:38:36I can pull all of your company's investments in a second.
00:39:00You have something for me?
00:39:02I'm sorry.
00:39:04But you deserve to know.
00:39:08I know you're married to him.
00:39:10And I said no at first.
00:39:12But as you know, his passion is unstoppable.
00:39:18Don't be sad over a man who doesn't love you.
00:39:24Is that it?
00:39:26What do you mean?
00:39:29Are you okay with your husband cheating on you?
00:39:31Why not?
00:39:33I'd have told Renee everything.
00:39:35Your plan failed.
00:39:39Better luck next time.
00:39:43No, stop.
00:39:45That won't work on me.
00:39:47You could make some real money on OnlyFans, though.
00:39:49Go back to Europe, Fiona.
00:39:51And don't ever come back.
00:39:55Renee, do you really trust your husband?
00:39:57Don't bother.
00:39:59I know he has his secrets.
00:40:03And I've got mine.
00:40:05We've promised to give each other space.
00:40:07Enjoy your flight, Fiona.
00:40:27Finally.
00:40:33It's got you so happy.
00:40:37You'll have to wait for tonight.
00:40:39You can't tell me no?
00:40:41Gotta keep some level of surprise and suspense in our relationship.
00:40:43Drama queen.
00:40:49Renee, Norman Group just became our largest shareholder.
00:40:51I need you at the office now.
00:40:54Norman.
00:41:00Norman.
00:41:04What's wrong?
00:41:06Something happen?
00:41:08Something urgent just came up.
00:41:10I gotta go.
00:41:12Don't forget to be back by seven.
00:41:14I've got something important planned.
00:41:18What's going on?
00:41:20How did Norman Group break up?
00:41:23What's going on?
00:41:25How did Norman Group buy into our company?
00:41:27Mara and Chloe sold their shares to Norman Group to cash out.
00:41:29Plus the other shares that Norman bought at high prices.
00:41:31Norman Group now owns 50% of the company.
00:41:35Well, do we know who's behind this?
00:41:39The company is now expecting their president out there.
00:41:41Are you sure about this?
00:41:45What are you doing here?
00:41:48I've been meaning to introduce myself properly.
00:41:50I'm the president of Laura Group.
00:41:52Even if you are the president,
00:41:54I know that you don't have any power
00:41:56because of the Norman Group.
00:41:58What a shame.
00:42:00The Norman Group is well on its way
00:42:02to taking over this company.
00:42:04I wonder how long your struggle will be before your defeat.
00:42:06Security!
00:42:08Kick her out.
00:42:10I don't want her going anywhere near the office.
00:42:12Don't let her even take a picture.
00:42:14No.
00:42:16Until Norman Group holds their shareholder meeting,
00:42:18I still have control of this company.
00:42:20Let me go.
00:42:22Are you really going to let them steal from my mom again?
00:42:24It still belongs to our family.
00:42:26Family.
00:42:28How can you use that word, you coward?
00:42:30Well, it looks like the wild child
00:42:32is lacking etiquette.
00:42:34I think you need a lesson.
00:42:38Don't you dare!
00:42:40What?
00:42:43Don't you dare!
00:42:45What?
00:42:49This is my final warning.
00:42:51This is a Brown family matter.
00:42:53You need not get involved.
00:42:55Funny.
00:42:57I don't see myself standing in the Brown family household.
00:42:59Is the heir's assistant always so audacious?
00:43:01Actually,
00:43:03I'm here on behalf of Mr. Norman
00:43:05to appoint Renee
00:43:07as the new president of the Laura Group.
00:43:09Are you serious?
00:43:12You heard me right.
00:43:14Now, I assume you would like to clear out these three?
00:43:16I am so sorry,
00:43:18but since you've traded away all of your shares,
00:43:20you no longer have any stake in the Laura Group.
00:43:22Please leave.
00:43:24Let's go, ladies.
00:43:26Let's go.
00:43:33Let me get this straight.
00:43:35Norman Group, as the largest shareholder of Laura Group,
00:43:37wants me to be president?
00:43:39Indeed.
00:43:41I don't understand why they would do that.
00:43:43I don't have any connection to them.
00:43:45Except...
00:43:51I don't have any connection to them.
00:43:53Except...
00:43:57Well, I was going to tell you tonight.
00:43:59Actually, I...
00:44:01Are you really just Mr. Norman's assistant?
00:44:03Huh?
00:44:05My relationship to him is through you.
00:44:07How did you convince him to do it?
00:44:10What do you mean?
00:44:12I should have told you sooner.
00:44:16I've been president of Laura Group all along.
00:44:18Wait.
00:44:20So you're the reason for the stock drop?
00:44:24Well, let's take it as a happy coincidence.
00:44:30It must have taken you a lot to make this happen.
00:44:32You have to let me meet Mr. Norman.
00:44:36Sure.
00:44:39What are you waiting for?
00:44:49Dude.
00:44:51Why didn't you come clean back there?
00:44:53It's too much for her to process today.
00:44:55I'll take it to her another day.
00:44:57What are you hesitating for, man?
00:44:59Isn't it a good thing for
00:45:01the husband to be loaded eye candy?
00:45:03Renee isn't shallow like that.
00:45:05If she finds out that she lost to me
00:45:07in this business arrangement,
00:45:09she's not going to be happy.
00:45:11Well, you played the game and you won.
00:45:13She needs to accept that.
00:45:15She can lose, okay?
00:45:17But not to me in disguise.
00:45:19It's different.
00:45:21I guess marriage is hard.
00:45:23Can't wait to see your wedding day.
00:45:29The thing I fear most is
00:45:31deceit and betrayal.
00:45:37Congrats, Renee.
00:45:39I always knew you were something special.
00:45:41Really? Then who was it
00:45:43that mistook Mara for the president?
00:45:45Well, everyone makes mistakes.
00:45:47But that won't happen again
00:45:49now that you're in charge.
00:45:51Whoa, that necklace is gorgeous.
00:45:53Only someone like you could pull it off.
00:45:55What, this?
00:45:57No, this is a knockoff.
00:45:59Barrett gave it to me at a party to show off
00:46:01and I wear it for fun.
00:46:03No way. I've never made mistakes
00:46:06in luxury.
00:46:08There's no chance that's a knockoff.
00:46:10Alright, I'm not going to hold you accountable for the past.
00:46:12You can stop with the flattery.
00:46:14For short, stop sucking up.
00:46:16Don't you have work to be doing?
00:46:18Yeah, yeah, I'm on it.
00:46:20But seriously, that necklace is real.
00:46:22No flattery, just facts.
00:46:26That necklace is real.
00:46:28No flattery, just facts.
00:46:31What if Carl's right?
00:46:33How much would that cost?
00:46:35No. Even though he works for Norman Group,
00:46:37something like this would still be a stretch.
00:46:39Unless...
00:46:41Because I'm the real heir.
00:46:43Assistant.
00:46:45I came back to marry Barrett.
00:46:47I was going to tell you tonight.
00:46:49Actually, I...
00:46:51No.
00:46:53Barrett is nothing like those trust fund kids.
00:46:57Hold on.
00:46:59The necklace is real.
00:47:01Look.
00:47:03Your Barrett is Barrett Norman,
00:47:05the heir to the Norman Group.
00:47:11Dude, don't bother confessing.
00:47:13Looks like someone already did it for you.
00:47:15What?
00:47:17Who did this?
00:47:21Get the PR team in here.
00:47:23I want this article redacted
00:47:25and any rumors washed immediately.
00:47:28Uh...
00:47:30You have a visitor.
00:47:32Not now!
00:47:36So the article was true.
00:47:40Let me explain.
00:47:42I was going to tell you earlier,
00:47:44but then I found out that you were the...
00:47:46Well, I found out that I was the president
00:47:48of the company you acquired.
00:47:50Your defeated opponent, right?
00:47:52Not true.
00:47:54Then what is the truth?
00:47:57I was waiting for you to watch me be fooled.
00:47:59You don't get it, Renee.
00:48:01I acquired the Laura Group for you as a gift.
00:48:03I know how important it is to you and your mom.
00:48:05Don't talk about my mother.
00:48:07I don't get it.
00:48:09You were so excited about this before you knew who I was,
00:48:11so why not now?
00:48:13Because I don't need your mercy.
00:48:15I had a plan.
00:48:17I was capable of doing it myself.
00:48:19As your husband, I wanted to help you to carry the burden.
00:48:21Is that so wrong?
00:48:23No.
00:48:25What's that supposed to mean?
00:48:31Have your lawyer contact mine.
00:48:33We're getting a divorce.
00:48:35Renee.
00:48:39Did you really mean it about the divorce?
00:48:41Shouldn't you two talk things over?
00:48:43What is there to talk about?
00:48:45We're just different kinds of people.
00:48:47Pretty much the same to me.
00:48:49Both executives, both enjoy identity games.
00:48:51I thought that you were supposed to be on my side.
00:48:54I am.
00:48:56I feel like you're being a little too impulsive.
00:48:58If Barrett had known you as the president,
00:49:00maybe he wouldn't have acted like this.
00:49:02Maybe he would have assisted you in a different way.
00:49:04Maybe that's my issue.
00:49:08The Browns think money can solve anything,
00:49:10including love and dignity.
00:49:14And I don't know if Barrett's like that, too.
00:49:18You do.
00:49:20You know deep down Barrett isn't like that.
00:49:24Should I trust you, Barrett?
00:49:34Renee, what do I have to do to get you back?
00:49:37Renee, what do I have to do to get you back?
00:50:01Renee, you're back.
00:50:03I'm sorry.
00:50:05I did it out of love for you.
00:50:07Please forgive me.
00:50:09It's okay. I have my faults, too.
00:50:11So you're not divorcing me?
00:50:13Why should I?
00:50:15I'm not dreaming, am I?
00:50:21No.
00:50:23This is real.
00:50:27Let's get you to bed.
00:50:35Relax.
00:50:37Come here, Renee.
00:51:05Fiona?
00:51:07What the hell are you doing here?
00:51:09What the hell are you doing here?
00:51:13Don't you remember?
00:51:15It was you who suggested we get together last night.
00:51:17What?
00:51:19No way.
00:51:21Last night, it was Renee.
00:51:23It was you.
00:51:25Don't get close to me.
00:51:29And keep your mouth shut.
00:51:31If you don't, I won't let you live in peace.
00:51:34If you don't, I won't let you live it down.
00:51:56Where are the photos?
00:51:59You seem...
00:52:01not mad.
00:52:03You made his decision.
00:52:05Aren't you guys getting a divorce?
00:52:07You seem well-informed.
00:52:09Regardless, Barrett is still a shareholder in my company,
00:52:11and it's my job to protect our reputation from people like you.
00:52:13and it's my job to protect our reputation from people like you.
00:52:17Well...
00:52:19I admire your sanity.
00:52:23Have a drink with me,
00:52:25and I'll give you all the photos.
00:52:27And I'll leave Barrett alone.
00:52:43Did you drug me?
00:52:45Yes.
00:52:47I did.
00:52:49And by the way,
00:52:51I was the one who wrote the article revealing Barrett's identity.
00:52:57Renee?
00:53:05Remember to sign these papers.
00:53:07The company rightfully belongs to you.
00:53:09That was my promise.
00:53:13Maybe my last one.
00:53:15belongs to you. That was my promise. Maybe my last one.
00:53:35I love you.
00:53:38What are you doing here? Where's Rene? I need your help. Rene's missing. Missing?
00:54:00Do we really have to? She's still my daughter. Zip it. Do you want the money or not?
00:54:06Dad, as long as she's willing to sign, we'll let her live.
00:54:18You must be starving. You know I'm allergic to nuts, right?
00:54:29Look, Rene, just sign the documents. Sign your shares over to Chloe and I guarantee
00:54:35she'll let you go. Let me go? Did you give my mom that choice? Just kill me, if you dare.
00:54:52My detectives are still searching, but her last location update was 12 hours ago.
00:54:56All right, get me in the loop. What are you doing here? Barry, why do you look so stressed?
00:55:10How did you get in? I just walked in as your fiance. Get out. You're the last person I want to see right now.
00:55:19Kick me out and you'll never see her again.
00:55:29Where is she? She's alive, for now, but only if you agree to one condition. What do you want?
00:55:41Marry me.
00:55:42What do you want?
00:55:49Marry me.
00:55:52You're sick. You kidnapped Rene just so that you could marry me?
00:55:57Don't flatter yourself. It was never you that I wanted. What do you mean?
00:56:03Well, ever since I was born, everyone swore to me that I was going to be the future Mrs. Norman.
00:56:09So this is all just about power? Exactly.
00:56:13Blame it on being the head of the Norman Company. You were always destined to be my husband.
00:56:23Take your time to think about it, but not too long. She's got a lot of enemies.
00:56:35Enemies?
00:56:36Yes.
00:56:39Paul, find Damon for me. Right now.
00:56:45Go after her!
00:56:51Just give me three days. I'll get your money back, I promise.
00:56:55Where is Maura Brown?
00:56:58I went in there. She broke up with me a long time ago.
00:57:00You want me to call your creditors over here?
00:57:05Okay, okay, but I swear I had nothing to do with the kidnapping.
00:57:09How much do you know?
00:57:11Maura asked me to help, but I didn't.
00:57:14Wait, then how could you know where she is?
00:57:16I have Maura's GPS. This is her location.
00:57:30We can't tip them off until we make our move.
00:57:41I agree to get engaged with you.
00:57:46Paul, you need a new suit.
00:58:00Hey!
00:58:06Didn't Miss Norman just get married? Why is he getting engaged again?
00:58:10It's a business marriage. It's pretty common.
00:58:15If you're going to act, do it right.
00:58:19I'm not as fake as you. I can't pull it off.
00:58:23Make me happy and that woman might stay alive.
00:58:31Excuse me, Your Majesty. I have a very important phone call to make. I'll be back.
00:58:49I need her dead. Now.
00:58:55I have a very important phone call to make. I'll be back.
00:59:01Here's the keys to her rental. It'll keep them from spotting you.
00:59:07Thanks, man.
00:59:07Yeah.
00:59:08I really appreciate you coming through for this.
00:59:11You gotta hurry, okay? I don't want to be here for too long.
00:59:15Go.
00:59:15Thanks, buddy.
00:59:17Okay. Go.
00:59:18Hurry.
00:59:24You go kill her. Fiona will hand the company over to us.
00:59:27Do it fast, Dad. We'll wait for you outside.
00:59:34I'm so sorry, Renee.
00:59:43I'm so sorry, Renee.
00:59:48Sorry? Did you ever feel sorry for my mother?
00:59:51It was my fault. I had no choice.
00:59:53But you did! And you chose to sacrifice her!
00:59:58Just do it. I'm ready.
01:00:14Renee! Oh my god, are you all right?
01:00:19Let's get you out of here.
01:00:21Not so fast!
01:00:24Toodaloo, lovebirds!
01:00:27What took you so long?
01:00:42Where's Barret?
01:00:46I'm here.
01:00:50Not so fast!
01:00:59Toodaloo, lovebirds!
01:01:09Game over!
01:01:14You're alive?
01:01:15You seem surprised.
01:01:17What happened to you? Why don't you ask Fiona?
01:01:19I didn't do anything.
01:01:21This was a setup.
01:01:22Maybe you should ask them instead.
01:01:32Uncle Ben! Help me!
01:01:34Weren't you always on my side?
01:01:38Well, I'm no longer your head of the family.
01:01:42Do whatever you need to do.
01:01:43Hey! Let go of me!
01:01:51This isn't over!
01:01:59Till death do us part.
01:02:01Till death do us part.
01:02:13Look! Our stock just hit an all-time high.
01:02:23Nice! Double that and it might be worth half of our price.
01:02:28Well, give me a year and I'll definitely surpass you.
01:02:32Sure thing.
01:02:38Miss Brown, about the divorce application you submitted a few months ago-
01:02:41We won't need it.
01:02:43Yeah.
01:02:46What do you say, Miss Norman? Shall we do this thing?
