00:05:10the rest of the world don't expect any affection from me understood and vice
00:05:16versa
00:05:19you
00:05:32my parents want to set up a dinner with us my assistant will set it up she can
00:05:36coordinate schedules with my assistant
00:05:49you
00:05:59Joshua has always been so distant with people unlike Alex here who's so popular
00:06:06and charismatic you should see all the women that can't stop chasing well at
00:06:14least I don't have to worry if Alex can give me a grandson but I wonder Joshua
00:06:20if you can even warm up enough to give me a child we need an heir after all
00:06:26Eleanor that's enough I'm just saying perhaps Alex is a better fit to leave
00:06:34Lane Horton quite the contrary actually Josh was very passionate especially in
00:06:41the bedroom no doubt that you'll have that heir soon for your information
00:06:52passion is not in my DNA nor does it align with my personal brand but still
00:06:59thank you for standing up for me I just didn't appreciate your stepmoms
00:07:05attitude get the campaign ready want that check out ASAP
00:07:20no hey I need a favor
00:07:26you're right Alex and Eleanor Lane are behind a smear campaign against Joshua
00:07:31Blue Diamond PR is already involved what agency are we using we're still
00:07:37deciding bids are open for this year's contract perfect I have a plan I'm
00:07:47offering the Gerber corporation's annual PR budget it's one of the largest in the
00:07:51industry that's an enticing offer miss Gerber what do you ask of me in return I
00:07:58need you to withdraw from any campaign against Joshua Lane I don't mind I'll
00:08:03cover the cancellation fee
00:08:10you have a deal the Gerber corporation account is too good to pass up there's a
00:08:16little more I need you to spread the word any PR firm that goes against
00:08:22Joshua Lane will be blacklisted from the Gerber corporation and our allies you
00:08:27got it no one in this industry would be stupid enough to fight against the Gerber
00:08:32corporation wonderful looking forward to a fruitful partnership I have evidence
00:08:43of Alex's scheme against you but don't worry I've already taken care of it I
00:08:50always knew Eleanor and Alex to be after my position just didn't expect Alex to
00:08:54be this bold how do you know about this Alex struck me as opportunistic a smear
00:09:00campaign is the easiest way to sway the shareholders opinion and Eleanor's
00:09:04background in PR made this move predictable you're more perceptive than
00:09:08I thought why are you helping me
00:09:13our family's Alliance is crucial protecting you means protecting the
00:09:18Gerber corporation it's all business business right well in that case I
00:09:26should help you with your beef with Catherine and Bradley right how did you
00:09:32know about that didn't expect me to enter into the marriage without doing
00:09:36background checks I just don't get what the big deal about your exes I mean he
00:09:41cheated on you so what she must be faking it to trap you how dare you you
00:09:53had no right to dig into my past like that I can take care of myself what just
00:10:02happened to your new position as senior VP and it's all thanks to my help of
00:10:12course absolutely you're my lucky charm honey
00:10:21imagine if I'd stayed with me poor and powerless that's all she ever was she's
00:10:26a joke a stepping stone at best you by my side we are unstoppable
00:10:42Catherine's Hospital is resisting our acquisition Bradley has the new senior
00:10:47VP is leading the pushback do they know I'm the CEO yet no as per your request
00:10:53perfect keep at it
00:10:59now how do I pull this off
00:11:10there are gaps in Mia's medical record right after her breakup these are from
00:11:15the Gerber corporation's own hospital only someone higher up from within can
00:11:19access it I want to know what happened to Mia during that gap after the breakup
00:11:30even if I know why would I tell you Mia helped me but unless I understand that
00:11:35part of the puzzle I won't be able to return her favor to care for her don't
00:11:42dislike her now Mia deserves someone who truly loves her not you she's a grown woman
00:11:50she knows what she wants nobody gets to tell her what she deserves especially not you
00:12:02you can choose not to share the information but you won't be helping her your choice
00:12:13all right look if you have to know unfortunately
00:12:19Mia had a miscarriage because of an accident involving Bradley and Catherine
00:12:42how are you feeling it's none of your business not that you would know what that means
00:12:51I'm sorry for overstepping and being insensitive I learned about your miscarriage
00:12:56I had no idea you didn't know that doesn't excuse my behavior I apologize
00:13:04I may have overreacted you were hurting that's understandable so you're not a robot
00:13:11like everyone says you are of course I'm not who says that everyone your family your friends your
00:13:18co-workers enemies I even heard the maids joking about it the other day
00:13:25fire them all no no no it's it's okay they're allowed to joke they've been doing a wonderful
00:13:31job besides I think you should talk like this it suits you it's not funny

00:14:25Mia you need to see this the stock of Catherine's hospital has been shortened dramatically
00:14:30they're on the verge of bankruptcy just a week how is this possible
00:14:34seems like a coordinated attack someone powerful is behind this
00:14:41Joshua
00:14:47did you short Catherine's stock yes I did why strictly for business to protect our family's
00:14:54alliances your enemies are my enemies now thank you Joshua I just did what's necessary
00:15:00just like you would do now to pay a little visit to Bradley and Catherine
00:15:03Bradley what are we going to do they're taking everything I can't believe this is happening
00:15:10as of now this hospital is under Gerber corporation's control yes the Gerber
00:15:15corporation as in my family's company Mia Gerber I thought you were Mia Whitlock
00:15:20Whitlock was just a name I used to conceal my identity you betrayed and killed my family
00:15:26Gerber I thought you were Mia Whitlock Whitlock was just a name I used to conceal my identity
00:15:31you betrayed and hurt my wife now you're facing the consequences I've resigned you can't touch me
00:15:38resignation or not Bradley your career is over I've seen to it that everyone in this industry
00:15:42won't touch you after what you've done we uh you know that I never meant to hurt you
00:15:49this hospital is all that I have left please no that day that I fell you stood there and watched
00:15:58you made your decision then Mia can we talk
00:16:01I know I hurt you deeply I just want to apologize to make things right
00:16:19Mia I'm truly sorry about everything I dreamt about you and the baby every day I just couldn't
00:16:26bring myself to tell you this after the accident because I felt so ashamed of myself your apology

00:16:39you deeply you're really like they say tall handsome powerful
00:16:58you know I can make you a very happy man I do not engage with women who have no shame
00:17:22Catherine manipulated me but now I realize she's nothing compared to you
00:17:26we could start over with your family's resources I could help you grow the business
00:17:31we could be parents again give us a chance you know if I wasn't 100 sure before I am now
00:17:39you're a piece of human trash you're right I'm dirty but think about all the good memories we
00:17:45have think about more to come just let go Mia don't I'm serious don't get the fuck out of here
00:17:52I should have intervened before Bradley could touch you it's fine Joshua thank you for stepping
00:18:07in thank you for everything yeah I followed through with all my business plans right yeah

00:18:34time alone to figure out my feelings I understand they've destroyed everything
00:18:47we can't let them get away with this
00:18:52what if we take Mia a ransom would help us but hurt Mia yes abducting Mia Gerber
00:19:03let's see how Joshua Lane reacts then but how will we get to Mia I know that she always goes
00:19:09to this one spot alone from what I know about her she must be there right now

00:23:44I don't know how to thank you enough it's nothing I just did what I had to do
00:23:53Joshua is this still just a marriage of convenience for you
00:23:59excuse me Mr. and Mrs. Lane a guest has arrived her name is Susie Harper Susie's back
00:24:07oh I've missed you so much
00:24:20Susie it's been ages when's the last time we saw each other um four years ago before I went abroad
00:24:28it's been too long welcome back Suze I came back just for you
00:24:32oh there's so much
00:24:37uh Susie this is my wife Mia um Mia this is Susie an old friend of mine
00:24:44so you're the one Joshua had to marry oh Susie that's enough Joshua and I have a special bond
00:24:54you know we've been friends since like forever he means a lot to me I want him to be happy
00:25:02I think we all want that do you Joshua and I talk often over the phone he confides in me
00:25:10I'm one of the few he truly trusts he mentioned he was quite unhappy about the marriage
00:25:16right uh well it seems like you two have a lot to catch up on so I'll leave you to it
00:25:22Susie why would you say those things I told you I have doubts before the wedding not since then
00:25:29Joshua you're clearly unhappy I was just speaking up for you I don't need you to look out for me
00:25:38I'm sorry I just I was trying to help since you clearly didn't want the marriage
00:25:46I don't mind it though do you like her she's fine
00:25:54this means I still have a chance Joshua if I had stayed by your side you never would have had to
00:26:01marry a complete stranger like Mia Gerber I'm sure it hasn't been pleasant now that I'm back
00:26:10I'm sure it hasn't been pleasant now that I'm back you can always talk to me
00:26:16Susie you're a great friend of course I'll always be there for you
00:26:28how's it going it's this marriage it's Joshua he's like a shadow he's
00:26:35always there but never really close
00:26:39you deserve someone who can give you all the love and appreciation you need
00:26:44remember if you ever need anything I'm here
00:26:49thank you Noah
00:26:52how could I live without you
00:26:53I can't live without you
00:27:19how could I live without you
00:27:20I'll do everything to protect you Mia
00:27:36Joshua
00:27:40we can't be like this forever we have to talk
00:27:45why don't you talk to Noah seems like you have plenty to say to him
00:27:48I don't even know what that means there's nothing between Noah and me
00:27:52you and Susie on the other hand what whatever you think I don't care
00:28:14what's he doing here
00:28:16look I'm here to deliver some documents to Mia
00:28:29and if you ever hurt her just know that I will protect her at all costs and what exactly
00:28:36have you done to protect her it seems like all talk but no action what are you two doing
00:28:42what's going on here Joshua why are you acting so aggressive this is ridiculous
00:28:45you invite him into our house just to talk to him I didn't invite you Joshua
00:28:50I'm sorry Mia I didn't mean to cause any rift between you two it wasn't my intention
00:28:54it's fine why are you here I'm here to protect you and the company I suspect that Dwayne Kaiser
00:29:01has been conspiring with Melody Healthcare
00:29:03is that Dwayne and the CEO of Melody Healthcare
00:29:11this plan is our game changer what about Melody Healthcare they're our biggest rival
00:29:17they're going in a completely different direction we're way ahead of them
00:29:22and how do you know that the CEO approached me the other day to try to get me to sign
00:29:28how do you know that the CEO approached me the other day to try to get some information from me
00:29:34but I flipped it and got some information from him like I'd betray my own company
00:29:38he'd be a fool to think that right of course Dwayne let's go ahead with the plan
00:29:51see he's fine I don't know there's something strange about him
00:29:56can't put my finger on it but just keep your eyes open okay I will
00:30:05Mia suspected but I made her trust me now let's go ahead and move forward with the plan
00:30:13excellent once we execute the strategy the Gerbers will be blindsided Melody Healthcare
00:30:20will be the number one me and Gerber will be out of the company and I'll be the number one
00:30:33how did they get ahead of us this was our strategy where's Dwayne he's outside
00:30:50Melody Healthcare just announced their new AI-generated online psychiatric care
00:30:55the similarity of the details to ours is uncanny
00:31:01I don't know we kept everything under wraps they must have developed this independently
00:31:08Mia you're just too young you're not experienced enough in this business world
00:31:12this stuff happens I'm experienced enough to know that this is not a coincidence
00:31:18is not a coincidence and I don't need you to tell me what I do and do not know you can leave
00:31:38why do you look so sullen all the time doesn't look good on you wow thanks for the comfort
00:31:48okay damn it why did I have to say that like that
00:31:55Miss Gerber an emergency board meeting has been called what
00:32:06we need to talk about the leadership of this company
00:32:09it is clear that Mia's recent decisions well they've been questionable
00:32:18acquiring Catherine Finney's hospital was a big misstep now Melody's Healthcare is outpacing us
00:32:26Mia I'm sorry but you're too young and inexperienced to be in this role I believe
00:32:32under my leadership our profits have already increased by 20 percent compared to last year
00:32:38that's due to the overall market trend not because your leadership
00:32:43my strategies have been more than effective the Finley acquisition has potential long-term
00:32:48benefits and our growth by the way is not just a fluke this company this board needs a leader
00:32:56with experience and vision not someone learning on a job as a senior VP on behalf of all the
00:33:03employees with Gerber Corporation we support Mia I also have evidence that Dwayne Kaiser has been
00:33:10conspiring with Melody Healthcare to undermine the company
00:33:14I also have evidence that Dwayne Kaiser has been conspiring with Melody Healthcare to undermine the
00:33:18company what what is this what are you doing these are communications between Dwayne and
00:33:26Melody Healthcare he leaked our strategy you're fired Dwayne effective immediately I've been
00:33:35with you since you founded the company all these years I'm never the CEO but you give it to your
00:33:40daughter I've always known you were ambitious but I never thought you would stoop this low
00:33:45your lack of trustworthiness is why you were never CEO we built this company on integrity and trust
00:33:53values you clearly lack security escort Mr. Kaiser out wait
00:34:05Mia we're so proud of you you really handled the crisis well thank you you truly are a girl
00:34:23no I I can't thank you enough of course you know I'd do anything for you
00:34:28you know I never asked but how did you get your hands on those documents
00:34:33it all started with an anonymous tip someone delivered photos of Dwayne
00:34:37meeting with the owner of Melody Healthcare and I intercepted the tip
00:34:44this is your schedule for the week and what's this
00:34:47um seems to be about Mr. Kaiser okay I'll take that too thanks
00:34:52so
00:35:02anonymous who would do that I don't know but the photos led me to dig deeper
00:35:08and eventually I found clear evidence of his betrayal can I see the photos
00:35:14I think I might know who's behind this but I need to confirm
00:35:28Ethan I need to talk to you about these photos is this you in the reflection were you following
00:35:34Dwayne yeah it's me Joshua asked me to keep an eye on Dwayne he said his suspicions about Dwayne's
00:35:41loyalty for a while we then delivered the photos Mr. Lane what a surprise
00:35:49should I tell Miss Lane you're here no need to
00:35:55why couldn't Joshua just tell me about his suspicions Joshua's a he's a complicated man
00:36:03he means well but he struggles with expressing himself he's never gone through such steps for
00:36:07anyone before Mia this must mean he cares about you he could just talk to me next time
00:36:14well Joshua has his ways he might not show it but he cares deeply I just ask that you
00:36:23don't hurt him you're a loyal friend Ethan
00:36:28Joshua I need to talk to you it's about Dwayne Kaiser and Melody Healthcare what about it I know
00:36:42you sent Ethan to follow Dwayne why didn't you just talk to me it just seemed like the best
00:36:47course of action at the time Joshua is there more to this marriage than the alliance did you do it
00:36:54because no no it's nothing like that I just couldn't have my wife being voted out as CEO on
00:36:59paper you look bad for me so it's all about appearances yes Mia it's all it ever is we
00:37:06agreed to a business arrangement Joshua I'm so tired of this of living in a fantasy where I

00:42:23Joshua.
00:42:26Miss Gerber?
00:42:27Yeah.
00:42:28We found that Mr. Lane was attempting to call you when the accident occurred.
00:42:33It's not my fault.
00:42:37It was nobody's fault. It was an accident.
00:42:40But right now, he needs you. Do your best to help him wake up, will you?
00:42:47I won't leave you, Joshua.
00:42:49I won't leave you, Joshua.
00:42:55You remember that soup you made me?
00:42:58It meant the world to me.
00:43:01Whenever you get better, I'm gonna make you that soup.
00:43:07Because I know it was your mom's recipe.
00:43:10It was those little moments with you.
00:43:13You know, whenever we would wake up and come out of our rooms and see each other in the morning,
00:43:19sometimes that was the happiest part of my day.
00:43:31Please come back to me.
00:43:36This is all your fault, Mia.
00:43:39You drove him to this.
00:43:40You hurt him.
00:43:42And now, look what's happened to him.
00:43:52Mia, we have a problem.
00:43:54Eleanor and Alex are plotting to make Alex the new CEO while Joshua's in a coma.
00:43:59Now even Joshua's father's been convinced.
00:44:01So they're using Joshua's condition to their advantage.
00:44:04I won't stand for it.
00:44:06What's the plan?
00:44:07I'm meeting with Mr. Lane.
00:44:08He's a key shareholder of Lane Holdings.
00:44:11His voice can sway their mind.
00:44:14Thank you for agreeing to meet me on such short notice, Mr. Lane.
00:44:18I've always been curious about the famous Mia Gerber.
00:44:21After all, you're the one who led Gerber Corporation to the next level.
00:44:24You're too kind.
00:44:26I'm merely stating a fact.
00:44:28Not everyone in the second generation is as capable as you.
00:44:31So, tell me.
00:44:33Why do you want to see me?
00:44:35Is it about Alex being the new CEO?
00:44:36You're a wise man, Mr. Lane.
00:44:39Joshua's vision has been the driving force behind Lane Holdings.
00:44:43We cannot allow Alex to derail that.
00:44:46I can't do anything at this time.
00:44:48Joshua is out of commission.
00:44:50It's best to have someone lead the company.
00:44:53Gerald is not in good health after his stroke.
00:44:57Alex is the only choice.
00:44:59What if I told you there's another choice?
00:45:06I can be the interim CEO of Lane Holdings as Joshua's legal wife.
00:45:10I can uphold his legacy and, as you mentioned before,
00:45:14I'm a very capable CEO in my own right.
00:45:17Your vote, of course, is crucial, but more than anything,
00:45:21people trust your judgment.
00:45:23If you choose to have faith in me, others will follow.
00:45:26And I promise, I won't disappoint.
00:45:30Can you run two companies at the same time?
00:45:32I have a very capable team over at Gerber Corporation.
00:45:35They'll keep things running smoothly, even if I'm not there full time.
00:45:39I'll devote my time to Lane Holdings until Joshua gets better.
00:45:43What if he doesn't?
00:45:45He will.
00:45:47I admire your tenacity. I'll do what I can.
00:45:51Thank you, Mr. Lane.
00:46:03I'll fight for you, Joshua.
00:46:06You did the same for me.
00:46:11I won't let you down.
00:46:17Given Joshua's current condition,
00:46:20I'm sure he will be able to handle the situation.
00:46:23I'm sure he will.
00:46:25I'm sure he will.
00:46:27I'm sure he will.
00:46:29I'm sure he will.
00:46:30Given Joshua's current condition,
00:46:33I propose Mia Gerber as the interim CEO of Lane Holdings.
00:46:37Mia Gerber?
00:46:39She's from a different company.
00:46:41How is she even qualified?
00:46:43Mia is Joshua's wife, the legal heir.
00:46:45She's proven her capabilities with Gerber Corporation.
00:46:48Combining the strengths of both companies under her leadership
00:46:52will only make Lane Holdings stronger.
00:46:54This is absurd.
00:46:56Mia is practically a stranger to our company's operations.
00:46:59While I appreciate your concerns,
00:47:02I think my track record speaks for itself.
00:47:05And unlike Alex here, who has had his hand in multiple
00:47:08questionable business dealings,
00:47:11I offer a clean slate and a fresh perspective.
00:47:15I agree with Mr. Lane.
00:47:17Mia's appointment as interim CEO is the best course of action for now.
00:47:21But Dad...
00:47:23Stop, Alex.
00:47:29Joshua, I hope you're proud.
00:47:35Let's go.
00:47:37You think you can take over with no consequences, Mia?
00:47:40I'm gonna make her pay.
00:47:44You won't be touching her.
00:47:46Who the fuck are you?
00:47:52Dammit, she's gone!
00:47:54Take care of her!
00:47:59See the security camera?
00:48:01I'm gonna get the footage.
00:48:03And if you ever try and hurt me again,
00:48:05I'll call the police.
00:48:07You'll never become the CEO of Lane Holdings.
00:48:09Ever!
00:48:11Goddammit!
00:48:22Thanks.
00:48:29Noah, what happened?
00:48:31Don't worry, I'm fine.
00:48:33You're not fine, you're bleeding!
00:48:39Are you okay?
00:48:43Thanks, but the reason I came over
00:48:46was because I wanted to finish our conversation from before.
00:48:49Mrs. Lane, it's Mr. Lane.
00:48:51He's waking up from the coma.
00:48:52I have to go to the hospital.
00:48:54I just want to tell you something important.
00:48:56No, no, nothing's more important than Joshua right now.
00:49:02Joshua, Joshua, Joshua,
00:49:04this fucking Joshua.
00:49:10When you wake up,
00:49:12we can be together.
00:49:15Mia doesn't deserve you.
00:49:16But you and I,
00:49:18we're meant to be.
00:49:23Mia.
00:49:25Joshua, you're awake.
00:49:28Mia.
00:49:31Excuse me, miss.
00:49:34Mr. Lane?
00:49:37Mr. Lane?
00:49:39Mia!
00:49:41Mia!
00:49:43Mia!
00:49:44Mr. Lane?
00:49:46Mia.
00:49:48Can you hear me, sir?
00:49:50Mia.
00:49:51Call his wife, Mia Gerber, immediately.
00:49:53Mr. Lane, I need you to concentrate for me.
00:49:55Do you remember what day it is?
00:49:57Mia.
00:49:59Yes, we're getting your wife right now, sir.
00:50:05Joshua.
00:50:07I'm sorry, this is all my fault.
00:50:09No, Mia.
00:50:11Don't blame yourself.
00:50:12It's a price I was willing to pay.
00:50:14But you got hurt because of me.
00:50:16Mia, listen to me.
00:50:21I'm sorry for all the pain I caused you.
00:50:24For not being honest about my feelings.
00:50:27I was afraid to admit it.
00:50:30Even to myself.
00:50:32I can't hide it anymore.
00:50:34I love you, Mia.
00:50:37I never thought I'd hear you say those words.
00:50:38You should have said them sooner.
00:50:42I love you too, Joshua.
00:51:09Noah Bellini.
00:51:11Drinking alone?
00:51:13What do you want, Wayne?
00:51:15Just to talk.
00:51:17You are underappreciated, Noah.
00:51:21Maybe we could help each other out.
00:51:27Thank you for standing up for me
00:51:29while I was out.
00:51:31I heard you managed
00:51:33as interim CEO of Lane Holdings.
00:51:35I handle things.
00:51:37I actually have a business meeting later today
00:51:39with a potential partner.
00:51:41Who's the partner?
00:51:43Kevin Katz.
00:51:46He's a key player in the industry.
00:51:48Katz?
00:51:50He's notorious for being
00:51:52handsy with business partners.
00:51:54I don't like the idea of you two being alone.
00:51:57I can handle Katz.
00:51:59We've dealt with worse.
00:52:01Just be careful, all right?
00:52:03I will.
00:52:05I promise.
00:52:09All right.
00:52:11I gotta go.
00:52:13I love you.
00:52:21So our collaboration will be mutually beneficial,
00:52:23especially when expanding into new markets.
00:52:25Absolutely, Mia.
00:52:27I've always admired Lane Holdings.
00:52:29Now, I'm not sure
00:52:31if it's a good idea
00:52:32to expand into new markets.
00:52:34I've always admired Lane Holdings.
00:52:36Now, with you at the helm,
00:52:38perhaps we can find ways
00:52:40to make our partnership
00:52:42more enjoyable.
00:52:45Mr. Katz,
00:52:47let's keep this strictly professional.
00:52:49Oh, come on, Mia.
00:52:51Don't be such a prude.
00:52:53Business is more fun
00:52:55when there's a personal touch.
00:52:59Don't you agree?
00:53:02There are people who cannot
00:53:04respect personal boundaries.
00:53:06You'll regret this, bitch.
00:53:08I could ruin Lane Holdings' reputation.
00:53:13Now you have one last chance.
00:53:15Oh!
00:53:17Oh!
00:53:20That's for being a disgusting pig.
00:53:30Hey.
00:53:33Let's just say Kevin Katz
00:53:35won't be bothering us anymore.
00:53:37What did he do?
00:53:39I handled it.
00:53:41Okay?
00:53:43Let's just focus on
00:53:45getting you better and back in charge.
00:53:47Can I get you some water?
00:53:58Ethan, get the bodyguard
00:54:00and meet me downstairs.
00:54:02I can't explain right now.
00:54:03Just do it.
00:54:09Where's Joshua?
00:54:11Mr. Lane checked out.
00:54:13He insisted he was well enough to leave.
00:54:15No, he's not fully recovered yet.
00:54:21What are you trying to do?
00:54:23Teach you a lesson
00:54:25that you can't touch Joshua Lane's woman.
00:54:26Oh!
00:54:28Oh!
00:54:31You can't do this, Lane.
00:54:33I can sue you and you'll end up in jail.
00:54:37This is you, Mr. Katz,
00:54:39doing something quite illegal.
00:54:41I must say,
00:54:43your taste is really reprehensible.
00:54:45You can't sue me.
00:54:47It was a long time ago.
00:54:49If I can still release the video,
00:54:51you'll lose everything.
00:54:53In fact, just it.
00:54:56The victim's identity was protected
00:54:58and they'll be set for the rest of their life.
00:55:00You!
00:55:02If you so much as speak a word
00:55:04about me or me,
00:55:06I'll make sure you wish you were born.
00:55:12Where were you? I was worried sick.
00:55:14I had to take care of something
00:55:16about Katz.
00:55:18I told you I handled it.
00:55:20I can take care of myself.
00:55:22I won't allow anyone laying their hands on you.
00:55:24Still, it's so reckless.
00:55:27It's okay now.
00:55:29You handled it?
00:55:31I did.
00:55:33I'm flattered by the jealousy.
00:55:36I really do love you, Joshua.
00:55:40I love you too, Mia.
00:55:44I have a surprise for you.
00:55:54I made something for you.
00:55:57What's this?
00:55:59It's your mom's recipe.
00:56:01I found it in a cookbook in the library.
00:56:06I can't believe you made this.
00:56:09I thought it might bring you some comfort.
00:56:17This...
00:56:20This is exactly how she used to make it.
00:56:23How'd you get it so right?
00:56:24I may have had some help from the internet
00:56:26and about 50 practice runs.
00:56:32You're just the best.
00:56:37We have a plan that can shift
00:56:39the balance of power in our favor.
00:56:43Our plan didn't overthrow
00:56:45Mia Gerber and the Gerber Corporation,
00:56:47but this time, we will.
00:56:50I just, I don't want Mia to lose everything.
00:56:52I promise you, she won't.
00:56:54With the Gerber family's fortune,
00:56:56Mia's set for life.
00:56:58She just won't be the CEO anymore.
00:57:01Think about this.
00:57:03With the Gerber family out of practice,
00:57:05Lane Holdings, they won't partner with them.
00:57:08Joshua Lane will probably divorce Mia
00:57:10because she's no use to him.
00:57:13Mia could finally be yours.
00:57:15Here's the plan.
00:57:17We target Gerber Corporation's
00:57:18medical device supplier network.
00:57:20This roughly will cause significant issues
00:57:22in the hospital and psychiatric care units.
00:57:26And we proceed.
00:57:28Melody Healthcare has insiders
00:57:30inside their supply chain.
00:57:32We'll start by creating delays
00:57:34and quality issues.
00:57:36The fallout will be immediate and devastating.
00:57:39The resources stretch so thin,
00:57:42they won't even see us coming.
00:57:49Congratulations on your recovery, Joshua.
00:57:52It's good to see you up and about.
00:57:54Thanks for coming.
00:57:56And thank you for being there for me
00:57:58during the coma.
00:58:00It means a lot.
00:58:02But it didn't matter, did it?
00:58:05In the end, only Mia matters to you.
00:58:09Susie, you'll always matter to me.
00:58:12But,
00:58:14you're not the only one.
00:58:16But,
00:58:18yes, I love Mia.
00:58:20I'll always love you too, but
00:58:22as a friend.
00:58:24That's not going to be enough for me.
00:58:26It's time for me to live my own life.
00:58:29That's why I'm here,
00:58:31to say goodbye.
00:58:33Um,
00:58:35what's your plan?
00:58:37I'm helping out my dad with our family company,
00:58:39Harper Medical Devices.
00:58:42That's Gerber Corporation's
00:58:43biggest supplier, right?
00:58:45Yeah.
00:58:47Susie, you wouldn't...
00:58:49Don't worry, Joshua.
00:58:51I'm not going to do anything to Mia.
00:58:53I'm focusing on my own path now.
00:58:56Goodbye, Joshua.
00:58:57Joshua.
00:59:11Why are there so many canceled contracts
00:59:14with Gerber Corporation?
00:59:16Hey,
00:59:18you haven't noticed any suppliers
00:59:20backing out of deals with Gerber Corporation?
00:59:24There are rumors
00:59:25someone's been persuading them
00:59:27to cut ties with the Gerbers.
00:59:38Hello?
00:59:42What do you mean they've stopped supplying to us?
00:59:56Noah,
00:59:58the suppliers are backing out for no reason.
01:00:01It's competitive marketing, Mia.
01:00:03Yeah, but this feels coordinated.
01:00:05Isn't that unusual?
01:00:07Yeah, it is, so I'm going to look into it.
01:00:10Hey, are you okay?
01:00:12Yeah, I'm fine. Just busy.
01:00:14Don't worry about me.
01:00:16Okay.
01:00:18Hmm.
01:00:24You look like you've been through a war zone.
01:00:26What... what happened?
01:00:28It's the supplier crisis.
01:00:30The situation's worse than I thought.
01:00:35I don't know what to do, Joshua.
01:00:39We'll get through this
01:00:41together.
01:00:48Thank you all for coming.
01:00:51We understand your concerns
01:00:53and we're prepared to increase profits
01:00:55to maintain our partnerships.
01:01:09Now, the offer looks good.
01:01:11But we heard some rumors of internal issues
01:01:13within the corporation company.
01:01:14Involving a higher level?
01:01:16Let me assure you,
01:01:18Gerber Corporation is as strong as ever.
01:01:21These rumors aren't founded.
01:01:32You're right.
01:01:34There are gaps in Noah's whereabouts.
01:01:36Keep digging, Ethan.
01:01:38We need concrete evidence.
01:01:45Mia, Noah might be involved
01:01:47with the issues at the company.
01:01:49There's no way.
01:01:51He's very loyal to the company.
01:01:53Although he has been acting weird lately.
01:01:55Have you ever considered
01:01:57he might have feelings for you?
01:01:59I mean, feelings make us do things.
01:02:01No.
01:02:03Noah's a brother to me.
01:02:05He's never even said anything
01:02:07remotely romantic.
01:02:09Actions speak louder than words.
01:02:11I mean, sure, he's supportive
01:02:12and caring,
01:02:14but that's just Noah being Noah.
01:02:16I really don't think there's
01:02:18anything more to it.
01:02:20Sometimes the people closest to us
01:02:22surprise us the most.
01:02:27Hey, just wanted to check in.
01:02:29We haven't had any time to talk lately.
01:02:31I've been good.
01:02:33I've just been busy dealing
01:02:35with the supplier crisis.
01:02:37I know, and I'm really grateful
01:02:39for you. You've done so much.
01:02:40I care too much about you.
01:02:46Hey, uh,
01:02:48I have a question.
01:02:51You don't secretly have
01:02:54feelings for me,
01:02:57do you?
01:03:00What if I do?
01:03:02Oh.
01:03:05Really?
01:03:08I've put this off for too long.
01:03:10And I need to tell you now.
01:03:13I've loved you
01:03:15since the first time I met you.
01:03:18I still remember that day
01:03:20like it was yesterday.
01:03:22We were just starting college
01:03:24and came to visit the office
01:03:26during summer break.
01:03:28You wore a blue dress
01:03:30and you looked like a princess.
01:03:32I was just starting off
01:03:34the company.
01:03:36I come from a humble background,
01:03:38so I never thought I could be
01:03:40this far.
01:03:42I'm stronger.
01:03:44I'm working.
01:03:46And I know we should be together
01:03:48here.
01:03:50Noah.
01:03:54I've really
01:03:56only ever seen you as a friend.
01:04:01It's because Joshua's done
01:04:03things for you.
01:04:05I've done more.
01:04:07No, I love him, okay?
01:04:08We understand each other.
01:04:10Because you're both born
01:04:12with silver spoons in your mouth
01:04:13and I wasn't?
01:04:15You know it's not that.
01:04:17I just, I have a really
01:04:19strong feeling about him.
01:04:22Which is not funny.
01:04:25Noah, I'm sorry.
01:04:28I didn't mean to lead you on
01:04:30and it wasn't my intention
01:04:32to hurt you.
01:04:35It's okay.
01:04:38I understand.
01:04:41Just needed to hear it from you.
01:04:43Yep.
01:04:48Dwayne,
01:04:50double down on the plan.
01:04:52There's no going back now.
01:05:00Noah,
01:05:02what brings you here?
01:05:04I think it's time for your company
01:05:06to reconsider its partnership
01:05:07with Gerber.
01:05:09I'm not sure what you're implying.
01:05:11It's simple.
01:05:13Harbor Medical Devices
01:05:15is the biggest supplier
01:05:17for Gerber Corporation.
01:05:19If you cut ties with Gerber,
01:05:21it'll deal a critical blow to them.
01:05:23So,
01:05:25you're the one behind the scheme.
01:05:28Why would I go along with it?
01:05:30The question is,
01:05:32why wouldn't you?
01:05:34You and I are alike, Susie.
01:05:35I've got your back.
01:05:37I've already let it go.
01:05:39Why let it go when you still have a chance?
01:05:41If me and the Gerber family
01:05:43are out of the company,
01:05:45the Lean family won the business alliance,
01:05:47Joshua and Mia will get divorced,
01:05:50and you and I can finally be with them.
01:05:56Join me.
01:05:58Together we can make sure
01:06:00we aren't ignored anymore.
01:06:02So, Mia,
01:06:04we've heard smarter suppliers
01:06:06are terminating contracts.
01:06:08Trust me, we have the situation under control.
01:06:10That's not what I heard.
01:06:12The rumor is Harbor Medical Devices is pulling out.
01:06:15How do you explain this?
01:06:17I assure you we're addressing the concerns,
01:06:19but our relationship with our suppliers
01:06:21has never been stronger.
01:06:23As one of the largest shareholders,
01:06:25I have complete faith in Mia's leadership.
01:06:27These rumors are just that,
01:06:29rumors.
01:06:32The rumor was right.
01:06:34Harbor Medical Devices
01:06:36decided to terminate the contract with us.
01:06:38But there's still hope.
01:06:40I've convinced Harbor
01:06:42to continue their partnership with us,
01:06:45but only if I become the new CEO.
01:06:48It's time for a change in leadership,
01:06:50someone who can steer this company
01:06:52in the right direction.
01:06:54So I've brought Susie Harper with me,
01:06:56the acting CEO of Harbor Medical Devices,
01:06:58and I'm going to help her
01:06:59become the new CEO of Harbor Medical Devices.
01:07:02Susie will tell you all
01:07:04that she would like Mia Gerber to resign.
01:07:09Actually, I think there's been a misunderstanding.
01:07:12Harbor Medical Devices
01:07:14never intended to terminate our contracts
01:07:16with Gerber Corporation.
01:07:18Any rumor suggesting otherwise is false.
01:07:22Furthermore,
01:07:24I believe in Mia's leadership
01:07:26and the direction that she's taking this company.
01:07:30Thank you, Susie.
01:07:32I owe you a big one.
01:07:34You don't owe me anything.
01:07:36I just want Joshua and the person he loves to be happy.
01:07:41Promise me.
01:07:43Never hurt him.
01:07:47And I have evidence
01:07:49that Noah Belani has been conspiring
01:07:51with former ousted executive Dwayne Kaiser
01:07:54to sabotage the company.
01:07:57Mr. Belani,
01:07:59your actions have endangered the company
01:08:01and everybody in it.
01:08:03You're therefore terminated immediately.
01:08:29It's quite the view.
01:08:36I thought a lot about what happened
01:08:38and I wanted to say sorry.
01:08:41I should have been clearer
01:08:43and I didn't mean to lead you on.
01:08:47I was lost, Mia.
01:08:49My actions,
01:08:51my obsession.
01:08:54I'm sorry for everything.
01:08:59We both made mistakes.
01:09:01I'm just glad we can put it all behind us.
01:09:06You were a good friend, Noah.
01:09:09You were more than a friend to me, Mia.
01:09:12I've learned to let go.
01:09:17I just want you to be happy.
01:09:21I am.
01:09:24I hope you find your happiness too.
01:09:25Take care, Noah.
01:09:29Me too.
01:09:48We are gathered here today
01:09:50to witness the reaffirmation
01:09:52of vows between Noah and Mia
01:09:55and Joshua Lane.
01:09:59Joshua, our marriage was out of necessity,
01:10:02but you've become my partner,
01:10:04my rock,
01:10:06my best friend.
01:10:08Mia, you've given me the gift
01:10:10of a real family.
01:10:12I will vow to cherish and love you forever.
01:10:15This is just the beginning
01:10:17of our forever.
01:10:26Thanks.
01:10:28Thanks.
